What happens when two American fans of a British science fiction show get their British friend to fan cast a fictional America season of the British show complete with American actors? Chaos. You get absolute chaos! This time, we're join by Ben Paddon who's sci-fi audio series Jump Leads starts its second season on October 31st!

This time we continue down the rabbit hole of Doctor Who that Could Have Been but Never Was and take a peek inside the Leekley Bible (no, that's not the one in your motel room nightstand!) that would have potentially been made into the 8th Doctor's first season on Fox here in America had the TV movie done better than it did. Let's just say that the classic stories chosen to be remade and updated to that 90s American TV sensibility...well, they were some interesting choices!

Friends, we have been talking about this idea for at least a year and now we are finally here. EPISODE 350!! In this episode, we each pick three unproduced Doctor Who stories, flesh them out, fancast them, and pitch them to each other. This was so much fun to pull together and record! If you know anyone at Big Finish, have them call us!

A couple days late, but worth the wait! As we reach the cusp of episode 350, we first look at the Jon Pertwee story Colony in Space. It's a little bit of a middling story, but there are some notable firsts, some great action, and a surprising amount of shoot outs!

This time we continue our escape into Classic Doctor Who with the 2nd Doctor adventure The Moonbase! One half animated, one half live action, we find ourselves on the moon in 2070 where a single base with a single Graviton beam is somehow controlling all the weather on Earth! This definitely feels like a situation where redundancies would have been helpful. But the Cybermen are back and poisoning sugar in order to take over the base and let Earth's weather go wacky and kill us all. Yeah, that seems like a strange plan, but at least the Cybermen know that we all love sugar way too much!
