This 'Musings' episode, you could consider as two parts. In the first half we talk about David Tennant and Cush Jumbo in the Donmar Warehouse production of Macbeth, which we saw on film. This leads into a discussion of community theater, and we mention a few productions. Two are from the Goderich Little Theatre at The Livery in Goderich, Ontario: Elizabeth Rex and The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane. One was from the Caledon Townhall Players in Caledon, Ontario: The Wild Women of Winedale. Then, in the second half of the podcast, we talk about our impression of the Doctor Who Series 15 trailer, as well as the trailer of Andor Season 2. We are super excited about the summer months watching both of these productions. Look for more Doctor Who and Star Wars from this podcast in the coming months.

In this Birds on Power Lines episode, we share our reflections on the last half of Skeleton Crew. In all we had a great time with this series, but we still have questions! We also talk about what we missed in our predictions from the first half of the series, and what we hope will develop in the future.

In this episode we're back to talking about Doctor Who. We finally had a chance to watch the 2024 Christmas special, and had a lot of fun watching it so that is the topic of this podcast. We really loved the play on the "timey wimey!" What did you think about this year's Christmas special? 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.

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!

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. 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! 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!

We took a special family trip to Greece and had a great time in Athens and on many of the islands to sample food, tour historical sites, and just enjoy ourselves. We took some time out of each day to record our adventures and experiences. We hope you enjoy listening!
