We embrace our inner old people and talk about what we've been doing for the past TWO YEARS.Our art is by @ManOverMars and our intro and outro music is Dans…

We accept that the animated recreations of missing Doctor Who episodes can be a little hit and miss at times. But, really, at the end of the day, we're glad that these stories exist in more than just black and white tele-snaps for viewers to enjoy! And, while we weren't bowled over by the animation this time, there's still lots to enjoy. So grab yo…

The Android Invasion probably won't be making anyone's list for most amazing 4th Doctor story ever. But that doesn't mean there aren't any enjoyable parts to the story. We have some crazy looking androids, the Kraal are...maybe rhino people?! And there are some plot twist that, we have to admit, we didn't really see coming. So join us for a quick e…

After a slight delay, episode two of Phenomena City Limits is here! This month, Seb takes the helm and leads us down an interesting path as he investigates The Orion Cube! Whether it's a bit of disinformation popping up across multiple stories or a piece of actual alien tech, the tale of the Orion Cube is definitely a wild ride!…

London 1965!! Remember when that was a thing? Well, we're back from Gallifrey One and friend of the show MA Solko has given us The Chase to watch. Not because it's a stinker, but because it's awesome. And, boy, was he right. Not a perfect story, but a wild romp across space and time! Amongst other things, The Chase may feature our favorite cliffhan…

On the surface, Planet of the Spiders is another 6-part story that probably would be better served as four. However, as a send-off for Jon Pertwee's Doctor, it's an absolutely bonkers adventure full of karate chops, Palpatine-esque lightning, a huge car chase, crazy Halloween-castoff spiders looking to rule the universe, callbacks to The Green Deat…

Friends, welcome to Season 1, Episode 1 of Phenomena City Limits! Yes, we're back with an all new look and feel...new music, same great hosts, and a fantastically creepy topic for our first trip out!In February of 1993, Gary Sudbrink was visiting his family on Long Island, NY when he received four very strange calls over the course of two nights. W…

Friends, what if we told you that we have the perfect Halloween costume idea for you and you'd get to go the whole night without having to talk to anyone! No? You don't want to have a ping pong ball in your mouth all night? Alright then, fine! But just hear us out as we talk about the Monoids, the plague that Dodo brings, the 1st Doctor "hmm'-ing a…

The Mind of Evil might just be Doctor Who at its greatest attempt to be an action-adventure show with a little bit of science fiction thrown in! The story is split between Stangmoor Prison and a Peace Conference for which UNIT is providing security (except for when everyone races off to the prison for the back half of the story). The Master has bui…

Happy New Year, friends! We're starting 2024 with a look at Ncuti Gatwa's first full episode as The Doctor, The Church on Ruby Road! And on Ruby Road, we find Ruby Sunday! So, new Doctor, new companion (er, friend...), and new adventures as RTD starts weaving some fantastical elements into our fave sci-fi show. And we are totally here for it! In fa…

Well, folks, it's a new year and we're getting ready to shed our original skin and come back next month as Phenomena City Limits! But before we do all that, we're going to wrap up our year by getting to all those advertisements we never make you sit through. Just kidding, we'll never have commercials. But we have seen many very strange and laughabl…

Omigosh, friends, it has come and gone! The 60th Anniversary Specials have come to a smashing close with The Giggle! There's so much to talk about: The Toymaker, UNIT, what's that Vlinx thing?, Mel!, bi-generation...and what that means thematically for not just The Doctor but Doctor Who as a show. So gather the wee babbies around and let's dive int…

Off we go! Off to watch Wild Blue Yonder!Don't worry, I won't turn this entire synopsis into a song! It's far too early for that. But this week we watched the 2nd of the 60th Anniversary Specials: Wild Blue Yonder! In which we learn the value in not knowing everything that's going to happen in a story before it airs. And it was freakin' bonkers as …

Happy start of December, weirdos! We're here with our penultimate episode (before a rebranding change in Feb 2024!) and two great stories as we get ready to conclude our year of pulling stories "from the pages" of old and obscure newsletters.First up, Taylor talks about The John Reeves Incident from Florida in 1965 in which an alien-maybe-robot lea…

DOCTOR WHO IS BACK, BABY! Holy smokes, are we ever stoked to have Doctor Who back on our screens! This time around, we dive into the first of the 60th Anniversary specials: The Star Beast! Yes, we have small nitpicks, but they're small and don't take away from our overall enjoyment of this adventure. We won't spoil any of it here, so slap on those …

How far will two guys go to learn more about The Toymaker? Will they endure telesnaps and amateur animations? They will! With The Giiggle in our not-to-distant future, it was high time we got to know this immortal craftsman with a penchant for games. So we did our best to watch The Celestial Toymaker (and will likely revisit it when the animated ve…

Happy November, everyone! Your boys are back with an all new episode taking about two rather unusual cases. First up, Seb talks about a local story (just over in Lodi, CA) involving the mystery airships from the late 1800s! And while some aspects of it are particularly fantastical, there's a bit of reality grounding everything. Then Taylor lends hi…

Welcome to the jungle! But there really aren't a lot of fun and games on the furthest charted planet in the universe as something is killing of the crew of a geology ship. As is far too often the case, The Doctor and Sarah Jane are the suspects, but the reality turns out to be far stranger with an anti-matter monster on the loose! That's right, joi…

This is it, folks! With The Awakening, we've now reviewed every televised 5th Doctor story! And to describe this story as one that doesn't overstay its welcome is fairly apt! It's not a stunner, but it's also not a stinker. And, really, the star of the show is a giant sort of Green Goblin face that looks like it belongs in the Cave Train ride under…
  continue reading
 
Friends, we promise you that this is not a foot fetish episode. However, both our stories this month deal with small-to-tiny creatures and the unusual footprints they leave behind. Taylor shares a story from Coldwater, Kansas in 1954 that (in some ways) shares elements with Tom Dawson's experience from last month. And Seb talks about the bizarre ex…

What a difference one story makes! Yes, this time we've gone backward in Season 15 by one story (yeah, our bad) to The Invisible Enemy and holy moly, friends, we loved this adventure!A sentient prawn virus is making plans to propagate not just from person to person, but also through TIME as it looks to take over The Doctor! Can a teeny version of T…

Classic Doctor Who! Doesn't it feel so good to be in that warm, cozy blanket? Well, there might be a few burrs in this specific blanket as Image of The Fendahl rubs us the wrong way in places. On the one hand, we're happy to see Tom Baker and Louise Jameson again, but at the same time there's almost too much going on in this story and it gets kinda…

Happy September, everyone! Fall is fast approaching here in the Northern Hemisphere (happy Spring to all of you down under!) and with it the spooky season approaches! But this month we have two truly bizarre cases of high strangeness. Seb talks about Whose Line is it Anyway? No, not the improv comedy show...literal lines hanging from something some…

We did it! We've reached the end of our Summer of Season Six with The Wedding of River Song! And, naturally, it had to go out with a bang! Time is rebelling against itself (and River's efforts to prevent her killing The Doctor), but The Doctor always has one extra trick up his sleeve! So join us as we wrap up this season, take a look at our updated…

"Closing time! You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here!"Actually, wait, no you can stay here! In fact, we'd prefer if you stayed here and listened to our review of the 6th season episode "Closing Time!" Yes, it's James Corden. Yes, the Doctor talks to a baby. Yes, we kind of wonder why we see Amy & Rory at all. But there's also ruminatio…

Well, it's an episode we knew we'd have to tackle eventually. The Girl Who Waited wasn't our favorite episode when it first aired. Over time, it appears that John has softened on it, but Taylor still feels like Moffat is putting Amy and Rory through the wringer any chance he gets. Join us as we process our feelings, talk about some Who News, and (a…

It's August and a brand new episode is here to grace your ears with some weird! This month we share some exciting news for early 2024, Seb tells tale of the possible timeslip from 1964 back to Custer's Last Stand! And Taylor finally finds a Bigfoot story...but thinks there's a far higher strangeness at work with the case! Get ready for "Custer's La…
  continue reading
 
Well, reviewing Night Terrors led us to an interest debate that we're going to take up closer to Halloween: what's the scariest episode of Doctor Who? Because Taylor definitely thinks this story could take the cake! Between the various tropes. a possible homage to Poltergeist, the transition to Peg Doll effects, and lots of spooky directorial choic…

The whole first half of Season 6 has led up to this! A GOOD MAN GOES TO WAR! The Doctor raises an army of friends and cameos and callsback to earlier in the season to storm Demon's Run to rescue Amy and her baby! But twists and turns abound in the Season 6 mid-season finale (remember when those were a thing?)! Join us for a romp through this advent…

July is here and we are in the midst of a heatwave here at All Night with the Living Geeks HQ! So it's time to grab a cool drink, set the fans to high, and settle in for an episode at the beach! Well, half of it's at the beach. We start with the story of Sidney Padrick, TV repairman from Watsonville, CA, who late one night has an encounter with Zie…

This week we watched The Almost People and realize that we probably should have watched it alongside The Rebel Flesh from last time. Sometimes the weight of having a massive reveal at the end (that doesn't impact the current episode) leads to an unbalanced storyline. And given a bit of the body horror present in this story, we wonder if the magical…
  continue reading
 
Maybe we need to start calling this our Summer of Season Six as we continue to march through this era of Doctor Who. This week we watched The Rebel Flesh in which The Doctor, while trying to help folks through a solar tsunami accidentally gives that extra spark of life to programmable flesh and a whole slew of Spiderman pointing at himself memes en…

June is here and with it, we have two more strange cases from the pages of old UFO magazines and newsletters! This month, Seb talks about an unusual case of abnormal grow rates on the island of Martinique! Could there be a race of giants hiding out near the Pelee Mountain. And Taylor brings us the case of an alleged UFO that was tracked from New Yo…

It's the episode we swore we'd already reviewed (but hadn't)! Our tour of Season 6 continues with The Doctor's Wife! Spoilers: we loved this story! And it absolutely holds up almost 12 years later. Granted, there are a couple things that still had us wondering, but it didn't detract from our enjoyment of meeting Idris and trying to outwit House! So…
  continue reading
 
We keep that Season 6 train a'rollin friends with The Curse of The Black Spot! Flimsy pirate metaphors aside, we really enjoyed this episode, especially coming back to it basically knowing how it plays out and picking up on the cues and the story's own rules. Lots of great banter! Smith's ability to rattle off technobabble is without equal here! So…
  continue reading
 
May is here and, with it, another strange pair of cases for our team at All Night with the Living Geeks to investigate. This month we look at The Bairnsdale Pole...the bizarre sighting of a pole-shaped creature in Bairnsdale, Victoria Australia on the morning of the Moon Landing...and The Bearer of Bad News...a case of a UFO taking over control of …
  continue reading
 
Well, we couldn't leave last episode's cliffhanger alone and so we dove into DAY OF THE MOON with gusto and are loving just how much fun we remembered having with this era of Doctor Who! This time around, Moff leans hard on the horror tropes as The Silence become even more of a menace and Team TARDIS (plus Canton) do their best to defeat them. All …
  continue reading
 
This week we keep the Moffat train a-rollin' with THE IMPOSSIBLE ASTRONAUT! Yep, the Season Six opener that set the stage for the season's mystery and main story arc. This was peak Modern Who and we recount what fandom was like in this era along with how the show finally did some filming in America. John also thinks the show really has something ag…
  continue reading
 
Well, no foolin'! We're dropping our April episode a day early just to ensure you don't think we're messing around. This month Seb brings us the fascinating story of a UFO that punches through a billboard (see the actual picture in our episode art!) and Taylor brings us the strange tale of Snippy the Horse! Was he killed by a UFO? Honestly, Snippy'…

After The Pandorica Opens...the Pandorica closes...and then opens again because the Doctor is jumping around in time (as he's wont to do) making sure that the cracks in the universe don't consume the whole thing and ensuring that his friends come out alright. Even if that means removing himself from the universe. But is the Doctor ever really gone?…
  continue reading
 
Hey friends, want to hear a funny story? It's a story about how this podcast got its name...275 episodes after our first episode. Yeah, time is definitely funny that way, but we're here this week to talk about The Pandorica Opens! The penultimate episode of Matt Smith's first season and all sorts of bonkers-ness is breaking out! So join as we final…
  continue reading
 
As our season From the Pages continues, we look at two unusual cases. First up is The Green Lady of Wahiawa! A tale from Hawaii in the late 1950s...you can find poor retellings of it on the web today, but Taylor thinks this might be the origin point for this legend. Seb talks about a pretty famous UFO case...Portage County, Ohio in 1966...but he do…

Well, friends, your hosts are back in their respective homes and recovering from Gallifrey One, so they sit down with another annual tradition: a post-Gally ep chosen by friend of the show M.A. Solko! This time around, we're subjecting ourselves to the 1993 30th Anniversary Special "Dimensions in Time!" It's...well, it's definitely a thing that wen…

GALLIFREY ONE IS UPON US! But first, The Doctor and Rose return to the “present day” a mere 12 hours since they…wait, what? Okay, I’m getting late breaking news that the TARDIS still doesn’t have the best aim. They’ve actually returned 12 months since they last left! But, strangely enough, just in time for opportunistic aliens to whip the planet in…

Friends, welcome to Season 3 of All Night with the Living Geeks! Yes, this month we start our third year of the podcast and we're planning on a year-long theme: From the Pages! Each month, we're going to dig into old magazines, newsletters, and journals to hopefully find obscure stories that other podcasts aren't covering! This month we have The Ma…

This time around, friends, we wrap up Season 10 of Classic Who with a look at The Green Death! That's right, the Doctor and Jo return to Earth just in time to take on a whole lot of craziness at a mine in Wales! The Doctor also makes that long-awaited trip to Metebelis III and that becomes one of the funniest parts of the whole serial! But all good…
