How does it compare to others that you've seen?If you want to hear more of our Doctor Who-related podcasts, be sure to explore our episode playlist - there are quite a few podcasts focused on The Doctor.

Star Wars: Skeleton Crew - Episodes 1-4 - Our Thoughts

As our listeners know by now, we are huge fans of Star Wars. In this episode, we share what we thought about the first four episodes of Skeleton Crew, and discuss our speculations on the show's second half. We're still debating who, exactly, Jod Na Nawood is! Was he a former Padawan or Jedi? If Jod and Silvo are one and the same, why didn't he know SM-33, or how to find At Attin? Speaking of that, who actually knows how to get to At Attin? And what will happen once our crew finds their way home? Let us know what you think in the comments!

The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power - Season 2 - Episodes 5-8

We really enjoyed season 1 of the Amazon series The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power, so were really looking forward to the second season. We were not disappointed! This is the second podcast devoted to the series. For our first podcast our conversation focused on the first four episodes of season 2, while this podcast expands the discussion to the last four installments: Halls of Stone, Where is He? Doomed to Die and Shadow and Flame. We hope you enjoy listening, and also catch our other podcast. Thank you!

We are, unsurprisingly, if you have listened to our other podcasts, huge Lord of the Rings lovers.

In this podcast we have a conversation about the first four episodes of season 2: Elven Kings Under the Sky, Where the Stars are Strange, The Eagle and the Sceptre, and Eldest. Be sure to catch our second podcast on the last four episodes. We hope you enjoy the discussion. Cheers and thanks so much for listening!

The Sandman Season 1: Episodes 4 to 6

We are slowly working our way back through season 1 of The Sandman. Since we saw that season 2 is well underway, we thought taking our time to revisit the episodes would be a good idea. For this podcast then we reflect on A Hope in Hell, 24/7 and The Sound of Her Wings.

Star Wars: The Acolyte - Our Thoughts

Star Wars is a big part of our lives. We never miss any of the movies or spin off series. Oddly, this is our first Star Wars themed podcast. We share what we thought about each episode of The Acolyte, and of course go on tangents to other series and topics while we do so. We recorded this podcast just before it was announced that the show will not have another season.
Did you watch The Acolyte? What did you think?
If you haven't listened to our podcasts before, we usually message each other to share our thoughts as we discuss a variety of topics as we go about our day. Here, of course, we sat down together for the conversation.
