We find love of our Elton (not THE Elton), but not of our monsters. A poor man's Gordon Ramsey (according to Kelsey) hooks up with Moaning Myrtle, and then loses her to an Absorbaloff. Well, most of her. Jackie gets hurt, Rose gets angry, and Bliss gets the rear end of the stick. See how this story fares with our quartet in this episode.

Satan: Bad. Doctor: Good? The Doctor decides not to jump into the pit of despair and wants to run away from the mystery of the Beast. Do you have any faith? Is Satan real? Does Captain Zachary make the right decisions? And who really is responsible for his escape from the killer Ood? We discuss our take on the second part of this epic Impossible Planet finale.

The future is dark, bleak, and on the edge of a black hole. The Doctor and Rose land on a space station that should be engulfed in a massive star eater but is impossibly in orbit around it. Mysteries abound with a crew of humans trying to find the source of power holding the planet, and the Doctor loses his TARDIS! Will Colin be possessed by the beast?

Feed me, Seymour! Gran was right: television is sucking the brains out of you! Now there is no power on this Earth (not parallel Earth?) that will stop the Doctor from finding Rose's face and a Betamax tape. Join Shelby, Michael, Colin and Jase as we discuss this voracious episode.

Y'all want some upgrades? The Cybermen have risen. Now is the Age of Steel. Is Rose unknowingly seducing her non-father? Did emotions blow the cybermen's minds? Was the second part worth its weight? We discuss all these, and the overwhelming takeaway: Mikey to Ricky. Zero to Hero. An arc is completed and a parallel universe is closed forever (Maybe).

Life is hard when you learn you're a dog. Life is hard when you learn you're a robot. Life is hard when the first letter of your name changes. We jump into a parallel universe with a president of Great Britain, Pete Tyler alive, and Kelsey wondering if the TARDIS is a future high-tech cyberman. We check out the parallels between this world and the original world we've grown to love. Get your blimp on! We give our opinion on whether or not this new Earth works out for our companions.

There's a lot of "pomp" and circumstance in this one. A spaceship from the 51st century stalks a king's mistress from the 18th century, but it blends in by disguising itself as the terrifying clowns of nightmares! This episode runs like clockwork, a cohesive story with great acting and surprisingly limited plot holes. But how was the music? We will let the listeners decide.

Out with the Kelsey and in with the Jase. Back in time to 2012, aka Rose's future. The Isolus takes over young Chloe and starts kid- and cat-knapping everyone around her. Rose is competent, but is our podcast? Let the listeners decide!
(Kelsey will be back next week!)

Out with the werewolves, in with the vampires. The Doctor, Rose, Mickey, Sarah Jane and K-9 all go back to school. Kenny saves the day and successfully blows up the school in a mysterious manner. This episode leaves Kelsey jonesing for oil and souring on the Doctor's benevolence.

1979, I mean 1879... The doctor once again fails to get out of the UK as he travels back to 19th century Scotland for a rendezvous with Queen Victoria. This fun romp features a classic werewolf encounter with limited sci-fi explanation. Shelby is not amused.
