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 #731 - Game of Drones Feb 24, 2020

Show notes

It is the Time of Descent for the Three Who Rule as they have just returned from Gallifrey One and are still in the thrall of the post-con blues, but for the Cybermen (and indeed one television programme called Doctor Who) it is the Time To Ascend…to something or other, as determined next week. In the meantime, here's a review of "Ascension of the Cybermen", the first part of the two-part Series 12 finale! Also, we catch up on our Stats segment after skipping it last week, Torchwood returns to the iPlayer, Big Finish explores more nooks and crannies of the Whoniverse, and you can Build-A-Bear yourself a Doctor!

Radio Free Skaro #730 - I Hate Canadians Feb 17, 2020

Show notes

What a weekend! Not only did the Three Who Rule attend Gallifrey One and had a wonderful time (as you will hear in this podcast), but they had a new episode of Doctor Who to watch in the form of "The Haunting of Villa Diodati", a scary haunted house story beautifully filmed and impeccably acted! Also, Steven recounts his experiences interviewing Christopher Eccleston on the main stage at Gallifrey One!

Radio Free Skaro #727 - Yes, I Can Hear You, Clem Fandango Feb 10, 2020

Show notes

Immortal beings (who are expressly not the Eternals, Guardians, or Toymakers), evil, nightmares, mental health, and giant hands are just some (alright, most) of the topics tackled in this week's Doctor Who episode, "Can You Hear Me?", and the Three Who Rule have opinions and conjecture to bandy about for days in an episode that provoked a lot more discussion than we thought we would. And it's our first episode of several this week as our Gallifrey One Preview Episode follows on Tuesday! It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Radio Free Skaro #726 - The Talking Cat of Ontario Feb 03, 2020

Show notes

Birds, globetrotting, and hapless travel vloggers are all part of the mix in "Praxeus," the latest adventure in Series 12 of Doctor Who as the Doc & Co race against time, disease, environmental catastrophe, and general crankiness to save the world! What did the Three Who Rule think of this planetary runaround? You know the drill. And you also know this is the place for news of tat, Big Finish tat, even more tat, and s…tats. Ahhhhhh-aahhhhhh! Stats!

Radio Free Skaro #725 - Rhinoceros Party Jan 27, 2020

Show notes

There is simply no way to describe the latest episode of Doctor Who without spoiling it, so please dive right in and listen to the Three Who Rule's thoughts about "Fugitive of the Judoon," which has…Judoon! And a whole lot else that impacts greatly on Series 12 and indeed the history of the show…which again we dare not utter here! Just listen! And may we further entice you with stats, action dolly news, and further updates to our Gallifrey One live show, Radio Free Skaro: These Go To Eleven!

Radio Free Skaro #724 - The Edison Twins Jan 20, 2020

Show notes

Two titans of early 20th century industry and invention square off in the fourth episode of Doctor Who Series 12, "Nikola Tesla's Night of Terror" as the aforementioned Mr. Tesla and one Thomas Edison battle space scorpions, patent law and the Time Fam in New York City. But a far greater horror for Warren exists in the form of STATS! and we have so, so many of those cursed viewing figure numbers to discuss. Plus, we officially announce our upcoming Gallifrey One live show Radio Free Skaro: These Go To Eleven, featuring an impressive array of guests that will no doubt electrify you! Er, in a good way.

Radio Free Skaro #723 - Marb Station Jan 13, 2020

Show notes

It's an abrupt left turn for Doctor Who and the Time Fam as they wander through the pristine and apocalyptic settings of "Orphan 55", the third new episode of our favourite show and our first not to involve spies, laser shoes or smashed up Gallifrey globes. What did the Three Who Rule think of this dusty romp with an ecological message? Plus more Gallifrey One guests, some details about our upcoming Gallifrey One live show, and an epic deep dive into more viewing figures in our Stats section!

Radio Free Skaro #722 – Humanity is Over (If You Want It) Jan 06, 2020

Show notes

The Master is back for the second week in a row in "Spyfall – Part Two" as Series 12 of Doctor Who continues! A romp across the centuries ends with a big surprise but more importantly, what were the thoughts of the Three Who Rule with the first proper story of Series 12 and Chris Chibnall's first two-parter? More to the point, where is all this continuity leading us as we dive into the rest of this series? Plus we have the return of Warren's favourite segment – Stats!
