Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro — After Shows
Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

Radio Free Skaro is possibly the most popular, most prolific and charmingly irreverent (but never irrelevant) Doctor Who podcast around. Since August 2006, hosts Warren (in Vancouver, BC) and Steven (in Edmonton, AB) have provided listeners with their brand of amusing Doctor Who praise and punishment. A year later, Chris (also in Edmonton, AB) was added to the team, and The Three Who Rule were born.

Recommended by Doctor Who Magazine, Radio Free Skaro provides an entertaining and diverting listen for the diehard or casual Doctor Who fan. New episodes usually appear on Sundays, following a loose magazine format of the three hosts discussing the news and events of the past week in the worlds of Doctor Who, Torchwood, and the Sarah Jane Adventures. They have also recorded special commentary podcasts for classic series and new series episodes of Doctor Who along with interviews of some of the brightest of the Doctor Who luminaries. Radio Free Skaro is also the official podcast of Gallifrey One, the world’s largest and longest-running annual Doctor Who convention.

Radio Free Skaro #741 - Sippy Cups on the Moon May 03, 2020

Show notes

This week, Deb Stanish of Verity! joins us to banter about news of a transmediatastic multiplatformeriffic project called "Time Lord: Victorious" which will span novels, comics, audio and escape rooms (somehow) and may be just the thing to fill the void left by No Doctor Who for the next little while! And if that's not enough, how about some "The Power of the Daleks" Blu-ray news, a "Dalek" (by Rob Shearman) prequel, and another Dalek prequel (sort of) in the form of parts three and four of our commentary for "Frontier in Space" with friend of the show Kyle Anderson!

Radio Free Skaro #740 - Danger: Bulk Flour Apr 26, 2020

Show notes

The love for Doctor Who and indeed humanity itself continues, with many a Doctor thanking the NHS for their sterling service this week, a new tweetalong with the inestimable Paul Cornell and his stories "Human Nature" and "The Family of Blood", and extra bonus prequel/epilogue material for those same stories. And he's not the only wordsmith cranking out the characters as Joy Wilkinson of "The Witchfinders" fame penned a short story as well! Plus there's the first two parts of our "Frontier in Space" commentary! Let's not forget our special guest Chip Sudderth, our fourth Beatle and eternal chum! He's here for more than two minutes!

Radio Free Skaro #739 - Lockdown of the Daleks Apr 19, 2020

Show notes

SwarmFest 2020 continues and with it we have a Doctor Who tsunami of tweetalongs, tie-ins, and tat, which makes up for conventions as far and wide as San Diego and London going online (in the case of DWAS's CapitalCon) and just flat out not happening (SDCC). But if you're looking for premium Doctor Who online content, we have our latest Miniscope examining the work of last week's interview subject, Paul Wilmshurst, that work being his directorship of "Kill The Moon", "Mummy on the Orient Express", and "Last Christmas"! And if you like math, contagion, and the analysis of such things, we also have noted author, mathematician and man about town Robert Smith? popping by!

Radio Free Skaro #738 - Absence of the Daleks Apr 12, 2020

Show notes

As we continue to hide in our own personal escape pods from Swarm 2020, we're joined my writer, playwright and Resurrector of the Daleks Robert Shearman, who tells us firsthand about dealing with COVID-19, finishing his new book "We All Hear Stories in the Dark", and chimes in on the latest Who news and various other bits of balderdash. And not only that, we have an interview with Paul Wilmshurst, director of Series 8 episodes "Kill The Moon", "Mummy on the Orient Express", and "Last Christmas"!

Radio Free Skaro #737 - Colourization of the Daleks Apr 05, 2020

Show notes

As humanity hunkers down to ward off the global pandemic, the Three Who Rule are joined by Big Finish's head of publicity Steve Berry for the news, and what news there be with Doctor Who tweetalongs, short stories, and hints of more missing episodes from one Philip Morris keeping us sane in our respective bunkers, along with (of course) some Big Finish info from Mr. Berry himself. Plus we have two of the wizards what whom colourized an episode of "The Daleks' Master Plan" in the form of precocious rascals Kieran Highman and Richard Tipple! Enjoy!

Radio Free Skaro #736 - Isolation of the Daleks Mar 29, 2020

Show notes

The original Three Who Rule Time Team Fam are back after a couple weeks apart and there's a frankly insane amount of news to plow through after three weeks off the clock. And and AND we have your Fluid Links questions answered…or at least mulled about in a pointless manner! We hope we can continue to provide you nonsense and distractions during these troubling times.

Radio Free Skaro #735 - High School Confidential Mar 22, 2020

Show notes

In this special episode of Radio Free Skaro, we present our contribution to the recent Who For Schools initiative with our commentary for the 2006 Doctor Who episode "School Reunion"! But there's a twist! Listener Drew Walko helped to support the campaign and so gave each of the Three Who Rule a secret phrase to try to insert into the podcast. Can you guess what each phrase is? Can we? Listen and find out, and thank you for your support for Who For Schools!

Radio Free Skaro #734 - WHO Is The Doctor, Too Mar 15, 2020

Show notes

The world is going through a tough time right now with many of us hunkering down to try to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus (friends, by doing nothing we are doing our part). So we at Radio Free Skaro hope to try to entertain and educate you over the coming weeks as we usually do, and this week, Graeme Burk and Robert Smith? drop by to talk about their new book, Who Is The Doctor 2, the follow-up to the successful first volume of this unofficial Doctor Who episode guide! Stay safe, everyone.

Radio Free Skaro #733 - Atta Girls Mar 08, 2020

Show notes

The Timeless Wait has begin, but the Three Who Rule won't let a little thing like a long monotonous stretch of time until new Doctor Who stop them from babbling about their favorite television show! Not when there's stats, retrospectives, a ridiculous amount of tat and, most importantly of all, in celebration of International Women's Day, an interview with Louise Jameson, writer and producer of ATA Girl 2, out today from Big Finish!

Radio Free Skaro #732 - For Services to The Division Mar 02, 2020

Show notes

The time has come for "The Timeless Children" being timeless! Will Doctor Who canon and continuity survive? Can the Doctor and the Master ever make nice? What will become of the Time Fam? Most importantly, what was the opinion of your humble servant podcasters on this, the finale of Series 12? You will obey…by listening! Also stats, tat, Target books and t-shirts. And no new Doctor Who until the holiday season!
