Have you seen this story? Did you love it like we did? Do you have other metatextual recommendations? (And yes. We did totally miss The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who, though that's kind of the opposite!) Let us know in the comments!

Show notes

It's a life-induced Emergency Extra!, complete with help from you, the listener! Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Lynne as we answer listener questions! We talk about missing episodes, ones we wish were missing, podcasts, and non-DW obsessions. It's great fun!

Do you have questions you'd like us to throw into the mix for next time we do this? Leave a comment or tweet them at us with the hashtag #AskVerity!

Extra! - Doctor Who Noveltunes Mar 29, 2017

Show notes

Did someone order a silly Extra!? Because we've certainly got one for you! Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Liz as we talk about Doctor Who novelty music. Some of it is fun, some is painful. You be the judge of which is which.

Which are your most and least favorite DW novelty songs? Did we miss any? (Note: We tried to mostly stick to novelty songs and avoid Trock.) Let us know what you think in the comments!

Extra-special thanks to Steven Schapansky of Castria for doing a bang-up job of editing this special, musical Extra!

Episode 131 - Steven, Leavin' Mar 22, 2017

Show notes

This week's "last" is a goodbye to a companion we're all quite fond of, Steven Taylor (not to be confused with Steven Tyler). Join Deb, Erika, Liz, and Tansy as we marvel at the excellence of this story, the excellence of Dodo in it, the excellence of Steven's reason for leaving the TARDIS, and the total lack of excellence in the general amount of fandom discussion surrounding this story. Why have we heard so little about this one?

Have you watched/read/listened to "The Savages"? Did you love it? Tell us in the comments!

Also covered:

Liz reads the fab excerpt from Paul Cornell's new novel Chalk (available now!)!
Tansy
- enjoys Deb's interview with Anneke Wills!
- can finally share her Blake's 7 fan art dollies now that Down and Safe has reached "Gambit"!
- adores a Teefury shirt featuring Hayley Atwell as the 13th Doctor!
Erika
- recorded a delightful members-only "Who-Complete Me" game show ep of Lazy Doctor Who for The Incomparable Network!
- can't control the squee over the fact that P-Cap will be at Calgary Expo in April!
Deb
- points out we're less than a month away from NEW DOCTOR WHO!
- picks up the fantastic Doctor Who and Torchwood audiobook bundle from Humble Bundle!

Extra! - Trivia! with No Da-luck Mar 15, 2017

Show notes

It's time for another gametastic Extra! Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Lynne as we battle it out for most Trivial Verity of 2017. We fully admit, this is not our skill set. But golly do we have fun!

Episode 130 - A Good Last Mar 08, 2017

Show notes

What makes a good final episode for a Doctor or companion? Join Deb, Katrina, and Liz as they discuss just that.

Extra! - Polly-Anneke Mar 01, 2017

Show notes

It's time for another con-sourced interview! Join Deb and Erika as they chat very briefly about Deb's experience interviewing Anneke Wills at Long Island Who. Then listen to the interview. This lady has had quite a life! Tragedy, success, and strawberries with John Lennon. What more could you ask for?

Extra! - Gallifrey One Love Feb 22, 2017

Show notes

It's our annual recorded-live-in-person Gallifrey One Extra! Join Deb, Erika, and Katrina as we tiredly gush over how lovely this year's Gally has been.

Were you at Gally this year? Please share your fond memories in the comments!

Episode 129 - The Doctor as a Valentine Feb 15, 2017

Show notes

No, we're not talking about the Black Guardian, it's (just past) Valentine's Day! Join Deb, Erika, Lynne, and Tansy as we celebrate the holiday-of-love by discussing the Doctor as a romantic figure. Not all of us are equally comfortable with that notion, but as always, that leads to a fascinating discussion.

What are your thoughts on the Doctor as a heart-throb? Let us know in the comments!

Also covered:

Tansy loves The Doubleclicks' new song "Women Know Math"!
Erika loves Gallifrey One and hockey:
- the Oilers Are Still Courting Vladimir Tkachyov!
- the NHL announces Hockey Is For Everyone month!
Lynne loves Michael (they just celebrated their 17th anniversary)!
Deb loves her whole Gallifrey One schedule!

Extra - You Autocomplete Me (aka Think Like an Idiot) Feb 08, 2017

Show notes

It's time for a new game! Join Deb, Erika, Liz, and Lynne as we try a nifty new game that we shamelessy stole from another podcast. It's a rollicking good time, and Erika only flounders a little bit as she dons the mantle of "Game Show Host".

Did you enjoy us trying to think like an idiot? (And do you have feels you just must get out about the casting of the next Doctor?) Let us know in the comments!
