Episodes
239: It’s Not a Leaf, It’s a Bomb (The Bells of Saint John)
February 17, 2019 16:57 - 40 minutes - 27.6 MBWho could have seen that coming? I’m actually pretty sure the first time I saw this episode I thought Moffat was really clever for the whole “bells of St. John” thing. And you know, I still do. On the other hand though, he’s aware enough to make a joke about it, but where did theContinue reading →
238: More Deadly than Mary Poppins (The Snowmen)
February 10, 2019 16:57 - 1 hour - 46.7 MBMary Poppins? Now there’s a name I have not heard in a long time. Ding dong, turns out Christmas is here again, in February! Hasn’t Christmas just passed? Like, two months ago, or not even. A month a week, on this podcast anyway. That’s kind of weird, I’d say this is the shortest period betweenContinue reading →
237: Walmart Wilf (The Angels Take Manhattan)
February 03, 2019 16:57 - 1 hour - 54.6 MBOn the prowl for dangerous criminals it’s Leadworth’s latest superhero…. Walmart Wilf! I typically don’t shop at Walmart. I’m honestly just too lazy to drive that far, like it’s definitely not the closest department store to me. I haven’t done the math, but I’m pretty sure the extra cost of gas spent in driving toContinue reading →
236: What Are You Going to Do, Zeus? (The Power of Three)
January 27, 2019 16:57 - 57 minutes - 39.6 MBCan anyone find Cronus? Zeus needs to be put in a time out. You know, Doctor Who really likes to tell us how many people is the right number, and it turns out it’s three. Which means that our podcast is one man short, and that further means that only our crossovers are “correct” inContinue reading →
235: Daemons versus Silents (A Town Called Mercy)
January 20, 2019 16:57 - 58 minutes - 40.1 MBThe showdown of the century! This town aint big enough for more than one podcast. And we all know which podcast that is. That’s right. It’s Triple Play. Not enough space around here for Triple Play as well as Trust Your Doctor, and since Triple Play is obviously the better podcast we’re shutting this oneContinue reading →
234: Birds Before Birds Were Cool (Dinosaurs on a Spaceship)
January 13, 2019 16:57 - 52 minutes - 36.3 MBOh boy I can already see the debate coming. Welcome… To Jurassic Spaceship! We’ve spared no expense. This spaceship is made of solid stone, through and through. Couldn’t really afford steel you know, so we went along with this pumice we found lying near that definitely inactive volcano. A few workers walked off the job,Continue reading →
233: I’m Literally Davros (Asylum of the Daleks)
January 06, 2019 16:57 - 1 hour - 65.7 MBDamn, guess I’m Davros now. Alright brace yourselves. Trying to wrap your head around the continuity behind the Daleks in this episode might just drive you mad. Why are there new paradigm Daleks mixed with old ones? Where did they even come from I thought they all died off before Victory? And why do theContinue reading →
232: The Science of Lemonade (The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe)
December 30, 2018 16:57 - 1 hour - 43.3 MBEveryone knows how to make lemonade right? Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Well, sort of. This episode awkwardly gets plopped between the two but, close enough. And we’re even talking about a Christmas episode, can you believe that? Pretty sure this will never happen again until 2020 at least if they air oneContinue reading →
231: The Roast of Steven Moffat (The Wedding of River Song)
December 23, 2018 16:57 - 48 minutes - 33 MBLook out Steven, we’re coming for you. You’ll never believe what happened to us while we were recording this episode. Dylan received a phone call from someone desperately trying to stop us recording. Turns out, our podcast recording last week was a fixed point in time, and the attempt to stop us recording caused theContinue reading →
230: Yippie and Company (Closing Time)
December 16, 2018 16:57 - 59 minutes - 41 MBBring back yippie honestly. Best Character 2k11. The biggest disappointment in this episode is that the song “Closing Time” is nowhere to be seen anywhere in this story. It’d be perfect, you know? It’d be that exact thing that Kiyan hates, kind of like that time they used “Iron Man” in the movie, Iron Man.Continue reading →
229: If We Stop the Podcast, We Die (The God Complex)
December 09, 2018 16:57 - 43 minutes - 29.7 MBAt least we only have to do this for the rest of our lives. Look. I run this podcast. I edit it. I maintain the website. Basically what I’m saying is that it’s my podcast. No one else’s. Am I doing this God Complex thing right? I actually don’t think I am now that IContinue reading →
228: Everything Could Be an Elaborate Lie (The Girl Who Waited)
December 02, 2018 16:57 - 59 minutes - 40.6 MBGood lord, I don’t think I’ve ever thought of that until now. This week we locked ourselves in a plain white room to record. It actually kind of sucked, because I usually zone out looking at my keyboard when we record these things. Kind of like entering a podcasting metastate, but that’s ok. We figuredContinue reading →
227: Escape Being Ginger (Night Terrors)
November 25, 2018 16:57 - 44 minutes - 30.4 MBEveryone wants to be brunette now. This week Kiyan and Dylan confront their deepest darkest fears. And in order to do so they make a podcast! Gasp! This is such a huge twist of events, who could have ever predicted that this is what they would do? Certainly not us! It’s Night Terrors, written byContinue reading →
226: Fast and Furious: Leadworth Drift (Let’s Kill Hitler)
November 18, 2018 16:57 - 59 minutes - 41.1 MBVery fast and furious when you really think about it. This week we try to stop one of the biggest tyrants in history and then promptly decide to dick around and not even do that. I mean, if you have the chance to change the entire course of human history, why would you? It’s Let’sContinue reading →
225: Stephen Moffat Hospital for Abduction (A Good Man Goes to War)
November 11, 2018 16:57 - 55 minutes - 38.2 MBEverybody should know how to get to the hospital for abduction. This week Kiyan and Dylan make it to the mid season finale, finally! The next half of the season is going to run much slower than this half, mainly because it’s all one parters, so it’ll take us until Christmas to get through it.Continue reading →
224: None of that Merriam-Webster Garbage (The Rebel Flesh & The Almost People)
November 04, 2018 16:57 - 1 hour - 41.5 MBVerbose – Adj. Using or expressed in more words than are needed. Kiyan and Dylan are now recording using remote bodies! This is the technology of the future, and we have it right now! Not gonna lie, this is a bit weird. I can’t feel my fingers anymore. Or my legs. Or my head. Its TheContinue reading →
223: The Many Personalities of John Nathan-Turner (The Doctor’s Wife) Ft. Argy
October 28, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 70.8 MBI have more questions than answers right now. This week we’re joined for our first crossover of the reboot. I think. I’m pretty sure. I’d check but I’m sure enough that I’m not going to. Just trust me on this one, I’m really certain of it. It’s The Doctor’s Wife, written by Neil Gaiman andContinue reading →
222: We’re Jersey Shore Pirates, Dude (The Curse of the Black Spot)
October 21, 2018 15:57 - 45 minutes - 31.1 MBThat’s pretty smartly brah. Arrrrrr mateys. This week we’re here for a special pirate themed episode of Trust Your Doctor, where we do absolutely none of the following: Neglect to bathe for a month, talk like a pirate in broken english, use strange pirate slang that fell out of use years ago, neglect to shaveContinue reading →
221: Welcome to America (The Impossible Astronaut & Day of the Moon)
October 14, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 50.1 MBAmerica, heck yea! Censored for unsafe eyes. This week we finally officially properly start Series 6. Last week kind of counted because it was produced as part of the same thing, but this week is like, the actual thing you know? And! We get to go to America, that’s pretty cool right? It’s The ImpossibleContinue reading →
220: You Came to Doctor Who for Consistency? (A Christmas Carol)
October 07, 2018 15:57 - 53 minutes - 36.7 MBRan into The Doctor yesterday. She told me not to expect any consistency in Chibnall’s era either. Ding dong here come the Christmas bells. The Christmas horses. Reindeer. Ok look Christmas is hard to try shove into this description so I’m just gonna give up. Unlike Kiyan I actually like Christmas though. It’s A ChristmasContinue reading →
219: Rory Danger Pond (The Pandorica Opens & The Big Bang)
September 30, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 47.1 MBOnly on Doctor Who would you find someone with the middle name Danger. This week things go sideways. Like, really sideways. But also it goes upside down and in reverse and crooked. And all those non forward directions that Stephen Moffat loves so much. It’s The Pandorica Opens and The Big Bang, written by StephenContinue reading →
218: James Corden’s Skeleton (The Lodger)
September 23, 2018 15:57 - 39 minutes - 26.9 MBClosets hold a lot of skeletons honestly. Or at least, mine do. James Corden is actually a pretty funny guy. I think because Gordon Ramsey is a chef I confused him with James Corden, somehow, even though their names are literally nothing alike. At all. I must be really dense honestly, because that’s completely bizarre.Continue reading →
217: Anything is Better than Traveling with Adric (Vincent and the Doctor)
September 16, 2018 15:57 - 55 minutes - 38.4 MBE-space kind of sucked tho so I’ll give him a pass for trying to escape. I looked up how to paint once. But it was really difficult and kind of expensive and so I decided it would be better to look up how to digitally paint since I already had photoshop. But then I foundContinue reading →
216: The Most Productive 12 Minutes in Human History (The Hungry Earth & Cold Blood)
September 09, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 45.7 MBDa da da da, da da da…. That was supposed to be the A-Team. Hey look we’re bringing back the Silurians. You all know the Silurians right? They appeared a whole two times! Which is actually less than Sabalom Glitz. And when you really think about that, you have to ask yourself, why are weContinue reading →
215: Very Creative Deaths (Amy’s Choice)
September 02, 2018 15:57 - 44 minutes - 30.9 MBThey weren’t important anyway. Weirdly enough, as I’m writing this, I just woke up from a dream about Blake’s 7. Which is weird because I’ve never dreamt about Doctor Who even though I’ve been watching it forever. Really disconcerting actually. Weird. It’s Amy’s Choice, written by Toby Whithouse and aired on May 15, 2010. DoctorContinue reading →
214: Broom is Doomed (Vampires of Venice)
August 26, 2018 15:57 - 39 minutes - 27.3 MBAnd so the age of brooms is over. I for one welcome our new mop overlords. Well, this week we sparkle. Not that you can really tell, because it’s an audio podcast and not a video podcast, but just trust me, we are. We have the blinds open and the sun is streaming in andContinue reading →
213: Dart in the Dartboard of History (The Time of Angels & Flesh and Stone)
August 19, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 44.4 MBReally want to know how to play darts, honestly. The angels are back. River Song is back.

It’s The Time of Angels & Flesh and Stone, written by Stephen Moffat and aired on AprilContinue reading →
212: War is for Kids (Victory of the Daleks)
August 12, 2018 15:57 - 48 minutes - 33 MBOnly on Doctor Who can kids participate in that age old game known as war. This week Dylan and Kiyan visit Winston Churchill. Turns out he’s as much of a hot head dick as everybody actually portrays him to be. Nobody here is actually surprised. Well maybe one person is surprised. I wasn’t surprised. It’sContinue reading →
211: Sonic Fidget Spinner (The Beast Below)
August 05, 2018 15:57 - 54 minutes - 37.5 MBThat’s 2018 for you. We’re already deep in the Stephen Moffat era and frankly we’re done with this nonsense.

210: Long Live the King (The Eleventh Hour)
July 29, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 51.5 MBCan you believe we finally got a Lion King/Doctor Who crossover? This week we do a total reboot of the podcast. Complete restart.

It’s The Eleventh Hour, written by StevenContinue reading →
The Tenth Doctor Retrospective
July 22, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 45.3 MBOnly the best parenting tips on this podcast. This week Kiyan and Dylan take a long introspective look at themselves as parents of a little baby podcast.

209: Let Her Go Russell T. (The End of Time)
July 15, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 63.8 MBDon’t you even think about it Stephen. So it comes to this. The end of the Tenth Doctor, goes out with quite a bang, and about 10 minutes of plot stretched out over two hours with a twenty minute epilogue! Truly, the epitome of the Russell T. Story. It’s The End of Time, written byContinue reading →
208: Go Go Gadget Time Lord (The Waters of Mars)
July 08, 2018 15:57 - 45 minutes - 31.1 MBEngage gadget uh regeneration… technique… Coming right up on the end of good old Mr. Tennant’s run here. And Russell T.’s run as well, but the more important thing is Mr. Tennant. He’s had a good run but you know, three seasons is about the max here in the reboot era. It’s The Waters ofContinue reading →
207: *Unintelligible Clicking Noises* (Planet of the Dead)
July 01, 2018 15:57 - 53 minutes - 36.9 MBHow about that for a title? Too bad none of us speak Tritovore. It’s Easter! Not really actually but like, it’s close enough. It’s a couple months late. Just pretend it’s Easter, I mean Easter doesn’t have a set date so we can just put it wherever we want. It’s Planet of the Dead, writtenContinue reading →
206: Sea of Leeches (The Next Doctor)
June 24, 2018 15:57 - 56 minutes - 39 MBThis is the uncrossable leech sea. This is it. We finally made it to the very first episode that Dylan watched of Doctor Who. Well before this podcast was even a glimmer in either of their eyes, there was The Next Doctor. It was written by Russell T. Davies and aired on December 25, 2008.Continue reading →
205: Break Glass to Win (The Stolen Earth & Journey’s End)
June 17, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 59.1 MBThat’s all there is to it. Break glass and win. This is the end of the Russell T. era. Sort of. Almost. Kind of. Just kidding. There’s still like 4 more weeks for us to go, but it’s basically over. Russell T. has basically thrown in the towel, given us the best season finale ofContinue reading →
204: Bad Bad Wolf Wolf (Turn Left)
June 10, 2018 15:57 - 44 minutes - 30.3 MBAnytime now. We’ll let Rose go. Any day. Just. Right there. We used to have a grasshopper in our recording studio but we’ve recorded so many different places now that I don’t think the grasshopper has shown up many times in the past year. I was going to make a joke about recording this podcastContinue reading →
203: Electric K. Ant (Midnight)
June 03, 2018 15:57 - 45 minutes - 31.1 MBSo, Mr. Ant, what qualifies you for this position? This is one of the best Doctor Who stories of all time according to Dylan, and a very good one according to Kiyan, and basically all of fandom really. Most people like this, so if you don’t you’re obviously wrong. Just flat out wrong, that’s theContinue reading →
202: Books Suck (Silence in the Library & Forest of the Dead)
May 27, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 52.7 MBUnlike books, however, River is actually useful. Every once in a while we deserve to take a digression, I think. A nice little trip down the yellow brick road so to speak. Of course, it just so happens that this digression is all of the episode, but you know, whatever! It’s Silence in the LibraryContinue reading →
201: The Wasp in the Study with the Lead Pipe (The Unicorn and the Wasp)
May 20, 2018 15:57 - 50 minutes - 34.7 MBLook out! A Wasp! At the end of this recording session, around 1 in the morning, after recording Zenith, we both walked to our cars.

May 13, 2018 15:57 - 44 minutes - 30.4 MBI was finally there, 200 episodes and still no one cares. Turns out both Kiyan and Dylan have daughters, I mean, who would have guessed that? They have their own podcast, it’s called “She’s Your Doctor” or something like that. You can tell I’m making this up as I go along really. It’s The Doctor’sContinue reading →
199: The Sontaran Surprise (The Sontaran Stratagem & The Poison Sky)
May 06, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 41.7 MBAh! I am so surprised that the Sontarans are in this. This week we reveal that we’ve installed a super secret system into every car in the world. It’s the Trust Your Doctor Podcast GPS System. It comes with two equally annoying voice options: Dylan and Kiyan. It’s The Sontaran Stratagem and The Poison Sky,Continue reading →
198: You Ood What You Gotta Ood (Planet of the Ood)
April 29, 2018 15:57 - 39 minutes - 26.9 MBMore ood, more problems. This week we visit the Sense Sphere again. Well. Sort of. We kind of come close, like the same solar system so that’s pretty close in my mind. And the Ood come back, which I guess means the Sensorites and the Ood are related somehow? It’s Planet of the Ood, writtenContinue reading →
197: 2008 Was 10 Years Ago (The Fires of Pompeii)
April 22, 2018 15:57 - 42 minutes - 29.1 MBEverything we talk about happened 10 years ago. Donna Noble has been saved oh shit no wait that’s the wrong story. Spoilers, sweetie. No in this one Donna saves people, like 4 of them, she forces the Doctor to. Easy mistake to make, I just swapped it around. It’s Fires of Pompeii, written by JamesContinue reading →
196: Trust Your Moptor (Partners in Crime)
April 15, 2018 15:57 - 48 minutes - 33.1 MBEveryone needs a mop, much the same way everyone needs a thneed. It’s the beginning of the end. Russell T. is on his way out, he practically has one foot out of the door already, it’s his final season. He’s probably already given up actually, it’s just over now. It’s Partners in Crime, written byContinue reading →
195: Space Gold (Voyage of the Damned)
April 08, 2018 15:57 - 53 minutes - 36.8 MBSo over here we have the latin– space gold. Almost got sued right there. This week one of us watches Time Crash, while the other doesn’t. That has to be a first for this show. I’m almost certain it is. After that we both actually watched the episode for the week, so that’s good atContinue reading →
194: Some Semblance of a Budget (Utopia, The Sound of Drums, Last of the Time Lords)
April 02, 2018 15:57 - 1 hour - 69.3 MBAnd to think we’ve come far since the days of styrofoam avalanches … but not that far. This is the longest episode we’ve put out in a long time. It’s over an hour and a half long, and somehow it’s actually sort of interesting for the entire episode, which is really saying something. Remember ourContinue reading →
(One and Done) Episode 1: Don’t Listen to This
April 01, 2018 15:57 - 20 minutes - 14.2 MBThis is not a joke, we’re done with Doctor Who. Let the past die, kill it if you have to. And we did. Trust Your Doctor is dead. I’m sorry if you liked the show, but it’s done now. We’re going to replace it with a podcast that has much less overhead, it takes less timeContinue reading →
193: Sad is Happy (Blink)
March 25, 2018 15:57 - 57 minutes - 39.8 MBEveryone gets it wrong, look happy is sad, sad is happy, that’s how it works now. What’s the equivalent of blinking for your ears? Folding them over? Something like that. Well don’t do that, if you do that while you’re listening to this episode you’ll die. So don’t do that. It’s Blink, written by StephenContinue reading →
192: Doctor Who Baked Beans (Human Nature & The Family of Blood)
March 18, 2018 15:57 - 56 minutes - 38.6 MBLet’s just file that under “never again.” This week we disguise ourselves as humans. You do remember we’re not actually humans right? We’re renegade podcast lords, we established that way back when we started the podcast. It’s Human Nature and The Family of Blood, written by Paul Cornell and aired on May 26th and JuneContinue reading →
