Terminus Podcast -- Mini Episode 7 – Baby Queers on Gallifrey: My Queer AF Doctor Who Fan Origin Story for Pride Month [With Bonus Season 12 Feels]
July 05, 2020 09:14 - 1 hour - 42.3 MBOn this episode, after a little unexpected pandemic hiatus, I'm finally back again! And this time it's with a bonus episode featuring something that's a bit off the beaten path for my usual fare: a personal story-time episode of sorts! So, please join me as I fully recount the detailed story about how I got into Doctor Who in the first place -- way back in the dark ages of the 80s as a young geeky teenager! Given that my story has a lot of baby-queer-feels running throughout, I just th...
Where Should We Go From Here on Terminus?
June 30, 2020 19:59As I mentioned in my Mini Ep #7 episode*, much like the Tenth Doctor said, "my head is so big, I need another head." Or at least I need to narrow down my field of focus for episodes going forward, as my brain is bursting with ideas all over the place (and messing up the carpet!) with what to record about during The Long Hiatus between new Doctor Who episodes. So, I thought I'd put a little poll out there for listeners to see what you guys were interested in. CLICK HERE FOR THE POLL! ...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 35 – Best Enemies: Spyfall
March 06, 2020 05:57 - 1 hour - 50.1 MBEvery podcast has that one 'Cursed' Episode and this is mine. Whether it was technical issues, Life Issues, or perhaps even a bit of Mercury Retrograde at work, this episode has been a bit of a challenge to get out. Still, despite all the good, bad, and the ugly, I prevailed and my 'Spyfall' review is finally here for you guys! NOTE: I mention this at the top of the show, but I also wanted to mention here that this episode was actually recorded several weeks ago. So, because of that, some...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 34 – The Spark Joy Series: Worth the Monsters: The Girl in the Fireplace
January 04, 2020 22:49 - 1 hour - 52.3 MBSo, this admittedly might not be the episode you were expecting from me right now – though I can assure you that me chatting about my 'Spyfall' feels is coming soon! HANG IN THERE! But no, on this episode, instead I continue on with my journey through my 'Spark Joy' series – perhaps for the last time for quite a while? -- with a story I love muchly: 'The Girl in the Fireplace'! Inside, you'll hear me going on and on for AGES (LONGEST. EPISODE. EVER?) -- all just full of squee and pas...
Terminus Podcast -- Mini Episode 6 – Not Where I Wanted to Be, But I Can Work with This: S12 Trailer Reaction & Who Anniversary Feels
December 01, 2019 06:26 - 24 minutes - 14.2 MBOn this episode, I take a small unexpected little detour from my recent 'Spark Joy' series to share my reaction to and thinky thoughts about the new trailer for series 12, as well as some squee about the recent 56th Doctor Who Anniversary, and a wee bit of pondering about my tentative 2020 podcast schedule. It's a bit of an emotional roller coaster, admittedly, but hopefully it's all a good time! So, I hope you guys will all enjoy the ride! Mini Episode 6 – Not Where I Wanted to Be,...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 33 – The Spark Joy Series: Hekate's Familiar: K-9 and Company
November 02, 2019 05:07 - 1 hour - 46.6 MBSo, on this episode, I continue my journey through my 'Spark Joy' series with a little story that gives me so much happiness: 'K-9 and Company'! Now this is basically a bit of a Halloween episode (albeit a day-ish late due to some unforeseen technical issues), as well as a bit of an early Christmas episode, so there's all sort of festivities within. Well, if you count me going on quite a bit about the goddess Hekate, witchcraft, retro swingers, my love of a silly robot dog, and squee abou...
Terminus Podcast -- Mini Episode 5 – DragonCon 2019 (+ Bonus Listener Feedback!)
September 27, 2019 05:42 - 1 hour - 44.2 MBOn this episode, I take a small little detour from my recent 'Spark Joy' series to share all of my squeeful adventures at DragonCon 2019 with you guys, including – spoilers! – meeting David Tennant, Freema Agyeman, and Catherine Tate, as well as several other things that happened at the convention. Heck, I even time-stamped them all for those of you wanting to skip to certain parts, as I can get a bit detailed. And loquacious. I also take some time to finish up with answering my recent ...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 32 -- The Spark Joy Series: The Room is Yours: Heaven Sent
September 05, 2019 02:16 - 1 hour - 50.4 MBOn this episode, I continue my happy foray into my new Falling-in-Love-with-Doctor-Who-Again series -- again called "Spark Joy," because I'm a dork – with a very squeeful and, honestly, a little bit vulnerable review of my favorite Twelfth Doctor story, "Heaven Sent". And, yes, because of who I am as a person, I do go on quite a bit about it, so you just might want to get comfortable. Maybe find a really comfy chair and perhaps a nice tasty snack to enjoy while listening. Or perhaps just ...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 31 – The Spark Joy Series: Sleep Is for Tortoises: Amy's Choice [And Wholanta 2019]
July 05, 2019 06:09 - 1 hour - 42.8 MBOn this episode, I start my foray into my new Falling-in-Love-with-Doctor-Who-Again series -- called 'Spark Joy', because I'm a dork – with a squeeful review of my favorite new series story, "Amy's Choice". Now, to be honest, I didn't really have a clue how truly controversial this episode was until I heard the new-ish Verity! Podcast episode chatting about it very recently. And unfortunately, I'd already recorded my own episode at that point when I did hear theirs (I was taking a break ...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 30 – Don’t Kill the Vibe, Graham: Series 11 Overview
May 13, 2019 00:47 - 1 hour - 49.7 MBFirst off, quick production note: For whatever reason, I kept calling Malorie Blackman “Marjorie Blackman” in my review. And I have no idea why. I might’ve just been nervous from not having recorded in so long. Or I might’ve been struggling with having less notes in front of me than I usually do. I’m not sure. Either way, I deeply apologize for getting her name wrong. How embarrassing! Anyway, aside from all that, this is honestly a difficult episode for me to publish. As I stated in my ‘...
State of the Podcast Update
March 01, 2019 23:00As I've been getting some inquiries, I thought I'd post a State of the Podcast Update: Confession Time: After a lot of introspection, I think I've finally figured out the Big Thing that's been stalling me in regards to my podcast recently. When listeners talk about my show, many times one of the biggest compliments I get is how positive I am about the source material I'm reviewing (often also mentioning a contrast to some other podcasts that 'just complain about the show the whole time'). ...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 29 – Chumblies Don't Surf: Wholanta 2018
October 16, 2018 07:44 - 1 hour - 41.5 MBYes, this is likely not the podcast episode that you're looking for. Fear not, though, as I do plan to review the episodes of Series 11 with Jodie, it's just that I'd planned to release this right before the new series started airing, but life intervened. Still, despite the awkward timing, I worked hard on it, so I still wanted to go ahead get it out. Now, the subject matter is admittedly a bit dated as the con I'm discussing happened a few months back, but I had hoped to use this as basi...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 28 – Be Loud, F*ck Capitalism: Oxygen
April 16, 2018 05:46 - 1 hour - 56.5 MBYes, your eyes are not deceiving you: I'm finally back! And in tow I've got some Seventh Doctor fangirling, some squee about guesting on other lovely podcasts, some fannish love for things like Georgia Tennant and Doctor Who calendars, and, most importantly, a very belated review of 'Oxygen', replete with chat about Punk Rock Doctor Who taking down the government, capitalism, privilege (and the lack thereof), and even the science of panic attacks. So, yeah, I hope you will all please ...
Terminus Podcast -- Mini Episode 4 – Happiness Will Prevail! (+ Bonus Halloween Recs)
October 31, 2017 04:41 - 51 minutes - 35.6 MBJust a fun little diversion that's full of All Kinds of Happy to do a little work toward combating some of life's Really Hard Stuff these days. Think of it as a Happy Fandom Time...Dilation! #happinesswillprevail Oh, and there's some bonus Halloween-related Doctor Who recommendations as well! Enjoy the ride!

Terminus Podcast -- Mini Episode 3 – TARDIS Full of Bras: Thirteenth Doctor Announcement
August 16, 2017 04:22 - 1 hour - 45.4 MBAnd here's a bonus episode for all of you -- all just a wee little diversion from my previously scheduled review episode (which I'm getting back to very soon!), full of my belated thoughts on Jodie Whittaker and her recent casting as the Thirteenth Doctor. So, please join me as I discuss Jodie herself, as well as Chris Chibnall's soon-to-be stewardship of the show, finally having a female Doctor in our midst (at least as far as the TV show is concerned!), fandom's myriad reactions to ...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 27 – Dryadic Doodlebugs: Knock Knock
June 17, 2017 03:37 - 1 hour - 56.3 MBHello everyone! And welcome any new listeners! So, my episode reviewing 'Knock Knock' is finally here! And this time around I talk lots about everything from my experiences at the recent local Doctor Who convention 'Wholanta', to laying down a few delightful podcast recommendations, to some musing on the whole Race!Fail period of S3 and all that really great meta that come out of all of that WAY BACK on LiveJournal (remember that site?), to Jo Grant's grandson as the Iron Fist (!), and on...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 26 – Creature Comforts: Smile and Thin Ice
May 22, 2017 23:56 - 1 hour - 78.6 MBGreetings Earthlings! This is Narco, from the planet Vicodin. The human in charge of this podcast has just been released from false imprisonment, as we had originally believed it was impersonating our Grand Senator Krog Krog, but was in fact just incapacitated from a recent primitive human surgery. This recording was found on its person and is -- as the human says -- several weeks out of date. We have given the recording back to the human as it does not seem to contain anything that is ...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 25 – Starchild!: The Pilot
April 30, 2017 04:01 - 1 hour - 46.8 MBSo, my episode reviewing 'The Pilot' is finally here! Yes, there were some technical errors and issues (quite a few), as well as Life Stuff that got in the way, but I bested them and finally was able to pull it all together for you here today (albeit with a bit of a sore throat that makes my voice crack much like male puberty at times, but oh well, these things happen). Anyway, so join me as I excitedly talk about our first proper introduction to Bill Potts, discuss shades of 'Shada', pla...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 24 -- The Ghost of Love and Wishes: The Return of Doctor Mysterio
April 17, 2017 22:57 - 57 minutes - 39.5 MBI'm back! Yes, another (unexpected) hiatus down and here I am again! Yeah, as I say in my introduction, I've been really behind on podcasting these last few months due to dealing with some fairly heavy medical stuff, but, despite all that, I'm hoping to get back on the saddle and really determined to get this podcast whipped back into shape. So, in the spirit of all of that, in this return episode, you'll find my belated review for the last Christmas special, 'The Return of Doctor Myste...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 23 -- Random Fandom Episode Generator: The Fires of Pompeii: Smoke. Chickens. Chaos.
November 27, 2016 00:18 - 1 hour - 48 MBJust on the tail end of a American Thanksgiving celebrations and chaos, here is the newest episode of 'Terminus', wherein I discuss the S4 story, 'The Fires of Pompeii'. All as a continuation, of course, of my ongoing 'Random Fandom Episode Generator' series. Inside you'll find squee about regeneration-related anniversaries, Doctor Who on big screens in large dark rooms, Doctor and Donna shipping love, and lots and lots (possibly too much) of geeking about Classical Studies-type things. ...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 22 – Bigger on the Inside: The Face of Evil: Edge of Sevateem
November 02, 2016 03:06 - 1 hour - 75 MBWe are returned! We are here! And on this episode of 'Terminus', I discuss Leela of the Sevateem's debut story 'The Face of Evil'. All as a continuation, of course, of my ongoing 'Bigger on the Inside' series about some of my favorite companion's first stories. This one is especially happy-making and sentimental for me, by the way, as Leela was actually my very first companion back in the day when I was young. Also on this episode, you'll find some belated recommendations of Spooky Docto...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 21 – Random Fandom Episode Generator: The Doctor's Wife: In the House
October 03, 2016 05:28 - 1 hour - 52.5 MBOn this episode of 'Terminus', I discuss the 2011 love-letter-to-'Doctor Who'-story, 'The Doctor's Wife'. Inside you'll find some Neil Gaiman love, some supporting and main cast love, some shipping love (mostly TARDIS/Doctor and Amy/Eleven, natch), some open communication love, and hell, even also some podcast love and some arguably-Royalist love. This is one loved-up episode and its not even Valentine's Day! So, feel free to draw hearts around it. I know I sure will! <3 Anyway, I hope...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 20 – Bigger on the Inside: Smith and Jones: Completely Mad
September 06, 2016 11:56 - 1 hour - 67.8 MBOn this episode, my discussion is probably equal parts raves and equal parts rants (I'm not so good at math, but that sounds about right) and overall just A WHOLE LOTTA FEELS. Seriously, this is probably the most shiptastic episode I've ever done (Martha/Doctor is still sort of my OTP), so that shippy aspect could possibly put people off, but, hey, it's how I feel about the episode and Martha's tenure on the show, so I had to just go with it to be authentic. *shrug* Anyway, please won't you...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 19 – Finest Exploding Restaurants: The Husbands of River Song
August 12, 2016 23:17 - 58 minutes - 40.4 MBOn this belated episode, I indulge in some Andrew Cartmel love, I lament a bit about my current state of Moffat-Hate-Fatigue, I feel far too many feels discussing 'Husbands of River Song', I rant a bit about the show's portrayal of Rose and her relationship with the Doctor (contrasting it with River and the Doctor's relationship, natch), and I even embarrass myself quite a bit by uncharacteristically tacking on some small boopers/outtakes at the end of the show (despite my perfectionist side...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 18 – Sad and Beautiful: End of S9 Review
July 18, 2016 01:54 - 1 hour - 51.5 MBI've long heard tales from other podcasters of 'cursed' episodes that have either been lost to time or were just vast struggles to get out. So, I guess it was inevitable that I'd have one of those misfortunes myself. Yes, this episode had tons of stumbling blocks, almost too many to name, but its finally here (albeit about 2 months late!). I do hope that it is worth the wait! Anyway, join me on this episode as I finally discuss the last three episodes of S9 -- 'Face the Raven', 'Heaven Sen...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 17 -- I'm Just a Bill: Random Fandom Musings
May 11, 2016 08:03 - 37 minutes - 26.1 MBOMG, I'm back! Is anyone still out there? *crickets* Um, maybe not. Anyway, it's really good to be back, finally. I've had tons of Big Life Stuff pod-blocking me all year, but I think I'm now in a good place to get back aboard the good-ship Terminus. Admittedly I was a bit under the weather recording the episode, but I was just so determined to get a new episode done and dusted, I went forward with it anyway. Let it be known that many coughs were valiantly sacrificed on the cutting floor, th...
Admin: Episode Delay Update
January 08, 2016 04:57Just a quick update on the delay on the newest episode. Apologies as between the crazy-busy-ness of the holidays and a recent car accident that has left my hand/fingers injured, I've gotten quite behind on things. I am working on getting the next episode out as soon as possible though. I am combining the last 3 episodes of the season ('Face the Raven' through 'Hell Bent') into one episode as they're essentially a trilogy anyway, plus I'll be doing a separate episode on 'The Husbands of Rive...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 16 – Sleepyheads: Sleep No More
December 05, 2015 06:04 - 30 minutes - 20.9 MBA little shorter of an episode than usual for me, but also one a bit on the political side of things this time around (yet again -- though hopefully this won't be a usual thing), here is my belated episode discussion of the recent Mark Gatiss story, 'Sleep No More'. Inside you'll find some happy Jessica Jones gushing, some allusions to ancient rad vs. trad fandom debates, chat about transphobic microaggressions and internalized prejudice, and a wee bit of roller derby squeeing thrown in for...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 15 – Pod People: The Zygon Invasion & The Zygon Inversion
November 21, 2015 05:50 - 1 hour - 44.7 MBComing to you a bit later than I'd planned (bad head cold + some Jessica Jones bingeing is a deadly combination for this podcaster, apparently), here is my episode discussion of the recent Zygon 2-parter. This was definitely one of my more personal episodes and certainly most political (which is admittedly odd to me), but then since the story was very political itself, I suppose it was somewhat hard to avoid? Oh, and this was also recorded before the recent Paris attacks, so any similarities...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 14 – The Tide is High: The Girl Who Died and the Woman Who Lived
November 03, 2015 08:52 - 58 minutes - 40.6 MBHerein I present a somewhat belated episode, wherein Clara completely steals the show for me, even with her little bit of screen-time in the second part, and, yeah, like a fool I'm just left making grabby hands at the screen for her. And also wherein I randomly have a bit of a go at RTD a few times during the show, which was admittedly not too pretty. I don't know, he just seemed to keep coming up like a bobbing apple or a floating witch (trying to relate things to Halloween with my awkward ...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 13 – May the Remorse Be With You: Before the Flood
October 25, 2015 09:16 - 52 minutes - 36.7 MBSo, I'm currently running about a week behind on my releases, so here's a rather belated chat from me about the recent Doctor Who episode 'Before the Flood', all coming at you from somewhere adrift in the Doctor's timeline (forgot to check the helmic regulator for more details than that!) . Yeah, methinks you guys subscribing to the Terminus RSS feed on iTunes (or any other fine podcatchers, of course!) might make things a bit easier to follow along, as my schedule has been a bit wonky as of...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 12 – Here Comes The Drum: Under the Lake
October 16, 2015 02:28 - 55 minutes - 38.1 MBLong podcast episode is long. And late. But them's the breaks during a confluence of technical issues and illness, I suppose? Still, it's finally here, nonetheless! Now, full disclosure, this episode was actually recorded before the second part 'Before the Flood'' aired, so obviously some of my speculation and predictions didn't quite turn out to come true, of course, but, hey, some of them did! You can even play Nicole-is-right-or-wrong Bingo, if you'd like -- though I don't have any pre-m...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 11 – Sunglasses at Night: The Witch's Familiar
October 06, 2015 00:27 - 44 minutes - 30.7 MBDespite some trials with illness and internet issues (curses, Mercury Retrograde!), this intrepid podcaster has finally prevailed and so thus, this episode is finally done and dusted and ready for your consumption. BUILD HIGH FOR HAPPINESS! Oh, wait...that's another story. Anyway, within you will find my discussion of the conclusion of the S8 opening story, "The Witch's Familiar". Admittedly, I get a bit punch-drunk and somewhat naughty at points (woo, cold medicine!), so the listen might ...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 10 – He's A Magic Man: The Magician's Apprentice
September 26, 2015 06:30 - 35 minutes - 24.3 MBA little later than I anticipated -- still getting used to fitting in all the podcast work all by my lonesome! -- but here is my discussion of the S8 opening story, "The Magician's Apprentice"! Of course, how this story is going to end is the grand mystery of the hour, but that's cool, I still found there was more enough to talk about within part one (and what a part one it was!). I'm back to the full-style episode format for now, along with the return of my old friend, Happy Fandom Time (w...
Terminus Podcast -- Mini Episode 2 – The Promised Land: Doctor Who S8 Overview
September 17, 2015 05:47 - 48 minutes - 27.9 MBFinally, here's my belated thoughts on Series 8 and the incumbent Twelfth Doctor, which are admittedly -- spoiler! -- a full-on love fest. This was recorded the next day after I recorded my previous episode about the 10th anniversary of New!Who, so I apologize that my voice was still a bit crackly from getting over that sore throat, but I think it sounds basically all right (besides didn't a lot of classic Hollywood sirens have raspy voices? Um... not that I'm a classic Hollywood siren in a...
Terminus Podcast -- Mini Episode 1: Turn of the Earth: Ten Years of New Who
September 11, 2015 02:20 - 42 minutes - 24.6 MBIT'S ALIVE! Galvanizing lightning has struck, the stars have aligned, the hecatomb of Daleks sacrificed, and despite recording with a bit of a scratchy-and-sore throat, a new episode is now in the can! It's debatable if it is a 'proper' episode, I suppose, as the format is a bit different from usual, so I've decided to just call it a 'mini-episode' (though admittedly, its not very short or anything). I'm just now trying to get back on the horse and rework the recording schedule going forwar...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 9: You're Golden, Baby: Day of the Doctor
May 23, 2014 09:31 - 1 hour - 48.2 MBSo, after about six months of unintended hiatus (!), the ninth episode of 'Terminus' is now finally finished and available for you! So, life sort of got on top of me during that time, derailing me completely and utterly, but I'm back to give things another go with a belated review of the 50th anniversary story, 'The Day of the Doctor' (I've postponed the promised 'Silver Nemesis' review episode for later, since I'm shuffling my schedule around a bit to accommodate the hiatus). Anyway, man...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 8: The Episode of Rassilon: The Five Doctors
November 20, 2013 21:00 - 1 hour - 52.3 MBSo, after a month of waiting, the eighth episode of 'Terminus' is now finally finished and available for you! Many, many apologies, of course, but now that I'm finally past all the travel and the consequent illness (the derby tournament equivalent of con crud, methinks), I'm hoping I can start to get things back on track (I've had to juggle my schedule a bit though, so I'll be doing more anniversary episodes after the 50th!). Anyway, I'm hoping just after I post this to record the next episo...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 7: Omega's Ball Pit of Doom: The Three Doctors
October 14, 2013 03:16 - 1 hour - 49.7 MBAfter fighting with some technical issues and going on travels around the Southeastern US, I'm finally back with the newest episode of Terminus! On this seventh episode of Terminus, join me as I chat about the serial 'The Three Doctors', unofficially the celebratory story for the 10th anniversary of 'Doctor Who'. I also chat about things like the new minisodes released with the Series 7 boxset, various trailers that have me excited, some 'Day of the Doctor' miscellany, etc. Also, some exciti...
Terminus Podcast -- Episode 6: Trust Me, I'm Not a Doctor: Spin-offs in the Whoniverse, Pt 1
September 18, 2013 19:27 - 42 minutes - 29.5 MBHoorah! Yes, the newest episode is finally here! So, on this sixth episode of the Terminus podcast (released during the two days I'm actually at home and not traveling during these two weeks!), join me as I chat about some of the more *obscure* Doctor Who spin-offs (and try and not stumble over saying 'BBV' many, many times).
