Podcastica Episode 320: The Sensorites OR A Very Scooby Story
10/09/2024 Duration: 55minHe would have gotten away with it, too! If it wasn't for those meddling kids and their crotchety old Time Lord! Yes, this week we watched The Sensorites! Honestly, a pretty good six-parter that wasn't exactly fast-paced and full of action, but also didn't really have pacing problems either. What it did have was one really crazy Sensorite who did not want humans (or their Time Lord) anywhere near their planet and he did some pretty Scooby villain stuff to stop them. Well, try and stop them at least. Anyway! Grab some Scooby Snacks and let's dive in!

Phenomena City Limits S01E08 - PCL Goes Hawaiian OR Taking a Meatball Sub to the Sandwich Islands
01/09/2024 Duration: 53minHappy September, everyone! Just because it's the start of meteorological Fall that doesn't mean that we're not pining for a tropical escape before the weather here starts turning cool(er). So this month PCL goes Hawaiian as we take a look at an unusual CEIII case from the mid-1940s on Oahu and make potential connections to an early 19th century case from the other side of the Pacific!

28/08/2024 Duration: 01h09minMan do we hope you like tangents because we were on something this episode and you can tell Silly Season has started from the intro! Is astrology Good, Actually?

Podcastica Episode 319: The Mutants OR Quantum of Solos
28/08/2024 Duration: 52minWell, folks, we were warned. We were warned that The Mutants was going to be a bit of a slog. And let us tell you, it was definitely a bit of a slog. Especially after Fear Her. But! It wasn't all bad. We worked our magic and found what we really enjoyed about this story: the costuming, the sets, Jo, Stubbs & Cotton, and just how utterly bonkers episode six is! So sit back, grab a cup of whatever makes you happy, and let's look at The Mutants!

Talk à Deux - S3E11: Nerdiest of Reviews
14/08/2024 Duration: 59minWe discuss the weirdest movies this Wednesday! And through some cosmic plan we hyperfocus on certain topics often such as sportsball, food, and World of Warcraft. This episode does not disappoint. We also review all things nerdy, and put cheaters on notice. Our art is by @ManOverMars and our intro and outro music is Dansez by the band Fasions.

Podcastica Episode 318: Fear Her OR Olympic Graphite
13/08/2024 Duration: 42minWell, we have a saying around here, folks...They can't all be great. And when that happens, we do our best to try and Sleep No More it into something we would have liked. With Fear Her, honestly, we did our best. We really tried, but it just isn't something we liked much at all. This episode actually makes Raygun's breakdancing look good.

Phenomena City Limits S01E07 - A Tale of Two Merlins OR From Hell to Breakfast
01/08/2024 Duration: 01h03minAugust is here and with it we take a look at two different Merlins! Two Merlins, however, who both have interesting ties to UFOlogy. First seen in our second episode as All Night with the Living Geeks, Ambassador Merlyn Merlin II was a mutton-chopped feature of the Alien Highway movie. Frankly, without his efforts we wouldn't have that stretch of Highway 375 named The Alien Highway. Then, we take a look at Colonel Donald Gilbert Carpenter who, under the pen name of Merlin Mesmer Merlino, wrote a book called The Treacherous Time Machine! Oh, did we mention Col. Carpenter also authored a USAF textbook with a chapter on UFOs and aliens? But, best of all, we have a snippet of The Treacherous Time Machine to read for you! This book is so rare that the only copy we could find is in a USAF library in Colorado!! You cannot miss this experience!

Talk à Deux - S3E10: Let's Get Grateful
01/08/2024 Duration: 01h01minHey, have you ever wondered about....... REVENGE? Well so have we, though we are alas too pure and good to have ever actually gotten real REVENGE so we discuss what we did instead. Then we chat a lot about a show that Classi is getting back into! What celestial body would you fist fight if you could? And would you want to raise a clone of yourself? But the bulk of the episode, as every fourth episode of our cycle is wont to be, is given over to expressing gratitude towards things both as small as pools and as large as WUV.

Episode 317: Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS OR 20,000 Leagues Under the Console
30/07/2024 Duration: 56minWell, friends, we were right! The Invasion of Time definitely influences the creation of Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS! This time around, though, the TARDIS is scooped up by salvagers during a vulnerable moment and then the race is on to locate Clara and fix the engines before everything goes to heck!

S3E9: Culture Club: Clarkson's Farm
17/07/2024 Duration: 58minWelcome to Wednesday, winners! We dig in deep on our World of Warcraft thoughts and experiences before asking an age-old question about what skills we could spontaneously master. For our culture club we watched Clarkson's Farm and learn a lot about SOIL and boy do we have thoughts! Our art is by @ManOverMars and our intro and outro music is Dansez by the band Fasions.

03/07/2024 Duration: 54minHello and welcome once again! Did you think we were done talking about allergies? Oh you foolish mortal, no, we are all Mother Nature's bitch and she will punish us for our hubris! We talk serving size lies and pies before moving on to our activity in which our deepest secrets are laid bare before you like Natalie Imbruglia once sang. Are you a cupcaker or an apple piesman?

Phenomena City Limits S01E06 - Tomorrow is Yesterday OR The Starfleet Abduction Scenario
01/07/2024 Duration: 53minFriends summer is here and that means one thing: reruns! Wait, you don't watch regular old broadcast TV anymore? Well, then how do you get your reruns?! Ah, yes, streaming. This month, we've grabbed hold of our Paramount+ subscriptions, fired up the old boob tube, and watched an episode of the original Star Trek series in which the crew of the Enterprise accidentally abduct two humans from Earth 1969 and then have to figure out how to get them back and the whole ship back to the 23rd century! Why is this important? Because we strongly feel that two UFO encounters probably influenced the storyline of this episode!

Podcastica Episode 315: Empire of Death OR Freak On A Leash
25/06/2024 Duration: 01h09minWell, here we are friends. At the end...of the season (not of everything, don't worry!). The Third Wave of Who (#thirdwavewho) is well underway and we've wrapped our season with Empire of Death! It certainly gave us a lot to chew on and discuss. And while we enjoyed the episode overall, there were some aspects of it that just didn't stick the landing. But the only way out is through, so let's get into it! Programming Note: We're going to take a short summer break and will be back with a new ep July 16th!

Podcastica Episode 314: The Legend of Ruby Sunday OR Do Ambulances Dream of Electric Patients?
19/06/2024 Duration: 58minHoly smokes, friends! The Legend of Ruby Sunday...the first part of our season finale...has given us so much to chew on! Not only is it the return of Sutekh to the show after almost 50 years, it's the possibility of who dropped Ruby at the church in 2004, it's how much we'd be very cool with a UNIT spin-off, it's speculation on Mrs. Flood, it's will Cherry ever get her tea, and so much more! And the season finale is almost here, so we better get cracking into it!

S3E7: Talkin'bout Traits
19/06/2024 Duration: 58minWelcome back! On the docket this week is the age old question of which animals are actually jerks? This season’s allergy arc possibly concludes? Whether you should stay up late into the deep AMs? How about falling into Fallout? There's a definite musical leitmotif as we talk the weirdest instruments and the fad that very briefly flared and died out too quickly: SINGO! For our activity we discuss the various traits that make people into people. Our art is by @ManOverMars and our intro and outro music is Dansez by the band Fasions.

12/06/2024 Duration: 01h09minThis week we're joined by John's good friend and co-host on That Wrestling Show Neesin (@StayFlyLife) as we review Rogue and get a unique perspective of the Third Wave of Who from a brand new Whovian! All in all, Rogue was fantastic fun that fired on all cylinders and gave us more of an upbeat (though definitely emotional at times) romp before diving into the two-part season finale!

Podcastica Episode 312: Dot and Bubble OR Delete Your Account
06/06/2024 Duration: 57minWell, good science fiction generates thought and causes us to look at the world around us in new ways. Based just on that, Dot and Bubble is quite the episode! This week, we break down our initial feelings, analyze them, filter them through a rewatch, and then find even more to talk about. No kidding, this really was quite the episode! Join us!

Talk à Deux - S3E6: Would You Rather?
05/06/2024 Duration: 51minHappy Wednesday! Let's talk about a weekend in April! We get into Edgar Allen Poe, the joy of play, and the instant and overwhelming regret generated from transitional lenses. Just don't do it! You don't want to look like you just got back from hustling at the local pool hall. A tough question is posed regarding things we should like, and we play several rounds of Would You Rather for our activity! Also, would you like to know more about the worst intersection in the world? Boy have we got you covered! Our art is by @ManOverMars and our intro and outro music is Dansez by the band Fasions.

Phenomena City Limits S01E05 - Disclosure Now! How About Now? Soon, Perhaps? Maybe?!
01/06/2024 Duration: 01h12minOur fellow humans, Disclosure is Imminent!! At least, that's what people have been saying for...well, for far longer than anyone has really realized! This month, we take a look at some of the more humorous and bizarre instances of people claiming that Disclosure is just around the bend. Oddly, history (especially with respect to Disclosure) has been very very bendy!
