We’re diving headfirst into the wild, wibbly-wobbly world of Doctor Who—and yes, it’s as confusing and charming as it sounds. From pepper shaker-shaped villains (Daleks, if you didn’t know) to the Doctor’s uncanny ability to regenerate and still look good, we cover it all. Did you know Time Lords have two hearts? Spoiler: it doesn’t come with a doctor’s note. We reminisce about meeting actual actors who played the Doctor (yes, we’re basically Whovian royalty), debate if Benedict Cumberbatch should steal the TARDIS, and spill tea on fan-made Dalek costumes that are life-sized and packed with blinking lights. We also get real about the show’s sometimes “old” vibe and admit that not every episode had us hooked—sorry, classic Who.
If you’ve ever wondered why Doctor Who episodes sometimes feel like a Christmas party crashed by Santa himself, or why sonic screwdrivers should totally exist in real life, this episode is for you. Warning: may cause sudden urges to binge-watch 900+ episodes or craft your own Dalek out of cardboard.
What You’ll Hear:
- The Doctor Who timeline explained (mostly) without time travel confusion
- Daleks = pepper shakers on steroids
- Personal encounters with Doctors (aka celebrity name-drops)
- Sonic screwdriver envy and other sci-fi gadget fantasies
- The eternal question: Who really should be the next Doctor? (Cumberbatch, anyone?)
- The struggle of keeping up with almost 900 episodes—no promises
- Why Christmas specials sometimes involve Santa and spaceships (because why not?)
- The epic quest to build a life-sized Dalek, complete with blinking lights and probably way too much duct tape
Favorite Quotes:
"Why do I keep thinking about Dr. Strange and Benedict Cumberbatch? Is there a connection or is it just because it’s ‘Dr.’ Who?"
"I will not be getting you a life-sized TARDIS for Christmas. Sorry, not sorry."
"Daleks were based on pepper shakers. I thought they were just evil robots, but nope — dinner table inspiration!"
Where to Watch:
- BBC, BBC America, and Amazon Prime (because binge)
- Roku for classic episodes (yes, really!)
