Doctor Who Gives A F*ck

No More F*cks To Give

June 29, 2024 15:40 - 2 hours - 58.7 MB

It’s been a good four years, but it’s time for this journey to end. JB, Chris and Sean see the current series of “Disney Who” off with a lengthy and rant-filled discussion of “Dot and Bubble”, “Rogue”, “The Legend of Ruby Sunday”, and “Empire of Death”. The podcast will come back now and then with one-off episodes, but this is pretty much the end of the line as far as monthly episodes. But don’t fret, because the fearless three have plans to record a new podcast which will be coming soon to...

Number 9 Dream (Bonus Podcast)

June 22, 2024 04:57 - 23 minutes - 11.1 MB

In which a podcast is conceived and another podcast is about to be put to bed.

A Little Twist and a Lot of Shouting

June 01, 2024 22:54 - 1 hour - 79.4 MB

JB, Sean and Chris tear their way through “Space Babies”, “The Devil’s Chord”, “Boom” and “73 Yards”. Not the the faint of heart.

The Doc Exchange (Part Two)

April 19, 2024 21:22 - 1 hour - 17 MB

Continuing the speculative “trading” game hosted by our guest, Lelon Stoldt, where the fearless three buy or sell episodes of Doctor Who based on how much they think they’ve gone up or down in ranking between the 50th and 60th Anniversary. We pickup Round 2 (Eccleston/Tennant/Smith) and finish with Round 3 (Capaldi/Whittaker). (Part Two of Two)

The Doc Exchange (Part One)

April 14, 2024 13:16 - 1 hour - 20.2 MB

In which the sanctum is invaded as JB, Sean and Chris are joined by DWGAF listener and Doctor Who podcaster Lelon Stoldt who tells of how it was like to be gaslighted by Paul Cornell on Twitter and hosts a game where the fearless three speculate on how much a selection of Doctor Who episodes went up or down in ranking between the 50th and 60th Anniversary. (Part One of Two)

A Visit with the "Briga-beard"

March 02, 2024 17:47 - 1 hour - 89.9 MB

A special crossover episode with JB and special guest Jim Beard, co-host of "The Doctor's Beard" podcast, where they discuss Jim's journey as a new fan watching the Classic Series from the beginning. You can find his show (and ours) among a collection of other Doctor Who podcasts at the Direction Point Podcast Network.

Is It Big Finish or Bullsh*t?

February 11, 2024 05:43 - 1 hour - 86.4 MB

In which one podcaster is talked off the ledge, and the other two podcasters attempt to guess which plot synopsis are actual Big Finish stories or are completely made up before they all call it a hiatus. We’re taking a break and will be back when the new television episodes start airing because we just don’t give a f*ck about talking about companion departures and other bullsh*t. Happy Mardi Gras!

Voyage of the F*cked (Bonus Podcast)

January 29, 2024 21:16 - 15 minutes - 14.5 MB

Sean may or may not be plotting his husband’s death on a cruise. Chris attempts to quit smoking. JB can’t choose between soda and pop in the grocery aisle.

The Bitchin' Kitchen

January 13, 2024 06:52 - 1 hour - 87.6 MB

In which our fearless three want to take in some tasty treats, but they’ve run out of spoons. It’s our review/commentary of “The Church on Ruby Road”. Also JB goes to Fan Expo and tries not to piss off the fairies, Chris becomes a king for three minutes, and Sean may be plotting to kill his husband on a cruise crossing international waters, but you won’t hear that last bit until JB puts out the next bonus podcast because this episode is an hour-and-a-half long already.

Dropping Balls

December 16, 2023 18:06 - 1 hour - 51.8 MB

Despite the title of this episode, our three fearless podcasters have mostly nice things to say about the three 60th Anniversary Specials. Like the Tenant Doctor, JB, Chris & Sean come to terms with slowing down in their advanced ages while the world of Doctor Who moves on to a more fantastical direction. It gets kinda philosophical, but we get in a few lewd comments along the way (hence the double meaning of the podcast episode).

The Night Before, Chrisless

November 25, 2023 14:25 - 1 hour - 64.1 MB

There was a lot of stuff that went on in the world of Doctor Who pre-60th anniversary that we really needed to discuss, however we’re again short one fucker as Chris has family obligations for Thanksgiving weekend. On the eve of Doctor Who’s return to television, JB and Sean unpack the “Disney-fication” of “Tales of the Tardis”, the controversy of the “Children In Need” skit, the colorization and re-edit of “The Daleks”, and Tom Baker’s “mildly contemptuous” attitude toward his fellow Doctor...

Seanless

October 21, 2023 13:52 - 1 hour - 74.1 MB

In which two out of three ain’t bad. JB and Chris carry on while Sean is fully booked for the month with murder mysteries. They discuss “The 10 Most Hated Doctor Who Episodes”, dissect the 60th Anniversary trailer, discover their “birth episodes”, critique the “new” version of the theme tune, dive into the controversy over the rights to “An Unearthly Child”, theorize when our world jumped the timeline into the apocalypse, write the story where the Doctor meets Jesus, and attempt to figure ou...

The Minions Draft

September 09, 2023 15:40 - 59 minutes - 68.1 MB

JB, Chris and Sean aim to take over the world and recruit their teams from a list of minions and henchmen/women spanning the entire history of the Doctor Who universe.

The Tribe of Unwashed Asses

August 06, 2023 16:03 - 1 hour - 127 MB

In which our three fearless but overheated podcasters go full Cro-Magnon as they record a commentary of the very first Doctor Who story, “An Unearthly Child”.

DWGAF Summer Special 2023 (Bonus Podcast)

July 14, 2023 22:52 - 35 minutes - 48.7 MB

Mostly off-topic ramblings excised from the last two episodes. Topics include: taking a constitutional, recasting The Wizard of Oz and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Batman gayest villains, kidnapping John Williams, the drunken history of David Bowie, and Chik-Fil-A shame.

Doctor Who The F*ck Am I

July 09, 2023 16:41 - 1 hour - 68.2 MB

In which two out of three of our fearless podcasters get high on edibles while the third gradually sobers up from the two double-shots he downed prior to recording and is left wondering how the hell he’s going to edit the recording into a listenable podcast. Did he succeed? Why not drop a review on Apple Podcast or a post on the Facebook page and let us know? Anyway, we review the documentary film, “Doctor Who Am I” by the TV movie writer Matthew Jacobs, and we catch up on the latest ca...

Stop Naming Your Episodes After Beatles Songs, Radio Free Skaro!

June 04, 2023 18:06 - 1 hour - 62.1 MB

In which the fearless three piss on the graves of deceased right-wing radio broadcasters, trade chicken sandwich recipes, sing the praises of the best Dalek story you will never see on the actual Doctor Who program, and get in some gossip about other Doctor Who podcasts. Happy Pride, everyone!

Gay for Gaiman

April 22, 2023 16:05 - 1 hour - 39.4 MB

We’re two months away from Pride Season, but this is probably the queerest episode of the podcast to date as we discuss musical theater, drag queen Jinkx Monsoon joining the cast of Doctor Who, Disney vs. DeSantis, fond memories of Boystown Chicago, and the luckiest piano bench in the world. We also do a commentary for one of our favorite episodes, “The Doctor’s Wife”.

Doom & Gloom

April 01, 2023 16:55 - 1 hour - 93.8 MB

In which we go back in time to confront our racist pasts while trying not to mess with our timelines. We also spend more time than we should discussing whatever the fuck “Doom’s Day” is, and Chris starts to come around on Disney’s involvement in producing the new series. We get really political on this one, folks. You have been warned.

Looking for Shakes

February 25, 2023 23:09 - 1 hour - 88.2 MB

In which JB survives his first New Orleans Mardi Gras experience, Colin Baker gets cancelled, Doctor Who officially becomes part of the Marvel Universe, and Chris & Sean are tested on their knowledge of Doctor Who incidental and source music.

10 Years Later (Bonus Podcast)

February 19, 2023 19:01 - 57 minutes - 27.1 MB

In which JB marks the 10th anniversary of becoming a Doctor Who podcaster with a commentary on his very first podcast episode.

Planet of the Perms

January 14, 2023 16:05 - 2 hours - 57 MB

In this technically challenged episode, we finally take on the Sixth Doctor with a Classic Commentary of “Terror of the Vervoids” (A/K/A The Trial of a Time Lord Parts 9-12), though, as always, we swerve way off topic the deeper we get into the story. We also give our Project Runway critiques of Ncuti Gatwa’s costume.

Xmas Bonus

December 23, 2022 18:55 - 41 minutes - 38.6 MB

Over 40 minutes of bonus audio edited out from the last episode for you to listen to during your holiday commute or while escaping from your racist uncle (everyone’s got one). We spend the first 10 minutes of this talking about death, so skip ahead if you’re squeamish. Topics also include our podcast curse, JB’s YouTube channel, the new Wednesday Addams Netflix series and Prime’s “The Peripheral”, Baby Dalek, what if Graham Crowden was cast as the Fourth Doctor, the modern series is not a reb...

Moist Connections

December 18, 2022 01:20 - 1 hour - 39 MB

The Fearless Three ramble on about the latest news and rumors about the upcoming season of Doctor Who. Of course the BBC wait until after we recorded to release pics of Ncuti Gatwa and new companion Millie Gibson in their costumes, so all our talk about the show “not shying away from the boobies” is no longer valid because, like Clara, it looks like Ruby Sunday is going to be well covered up. We also revisit the doughnut topic and answer some questions meant for Radio Free Skaro. Be sure to s...

How The F*ck...Everything In This?!

November 05, 2022 15:39 - 2 hours - 65.2 MB

Our review/commentary of “The Power of the Doctor”. Nuff said.

Edibles (Bonus Track)

October 08, 2022 15:20 - 11 minutes - 10.8 MB

We're taking this month off and will not be recording our review/commentary for Jodie's yet-to-air last episode until after Halloween. So here's a previously unreleased bit of audio of the three of us discussing edibles. Remember to imbibe responsibly, and don't forget to subscribe to the Doctor Who YouTube channel for f*ck's sake!!

Who Died and Made You Queen?!

September 10, 2022 07:01 - 1 hour - 88.3 MB

With just over a month before the last Chibnall/Whittaker episode airs - with not one bit of promotion of said episode to comment on - the fearless three commiserate the passing of QE2 with a quiz that breaks JB’s brain and a commentary for “The Idiot’s Lantern” that barely covers what’s happening on the screen.

A Coarse Elegiac Screed

July 23, 2022 17:31 - 1 hour - 45 MB

This month is all rumors and heresy (or should that be hearsay?) as the fearless three discuss the handful of “leaks” regarding the Centenary Special, the 60th Anniversary Special, Disney+ possibly buying the streaming rights for Series 14 and beyond, and Big Finish’s release schedule for the upcoming year. We also dive into from back in the days of the New Adventure novels, and we receive the most epic podcast review ever written.

Bedlam Beneath The Big Top

June 25, 2022 06:10 - 2 hours - 57.9 MB

Try as we might, our hearts were not into recording a podcast as much as usual, but just like the Psychic Circus, the show must go on! And just like how Hartnell and company filmed The Daleks Episode 2 mere moments after JFK’s assassination, we recorded this on a dark day in American history. To cheer ourselves up, we do a classic commentary on one of our favorite stories, “The Greatest Show in the Galaxy”. This is probably the drunkest and the darkest episode of the podcast thus far. Take ca...

Who Gat?

May 28, 2022 14:08 - 1 hour - 67.8 MB

Yeah, we’re a few weeks late, but we don’t have Patreon supporters, so we didn’t feel the need to drop everything to record a podcast when all the shit went down. So this is the inevitable reaction and discussion of the casting of Ncuti Gatwa as the next Doctor, David Tennant and Catherine Tate returning for the 60th Anniversary Special, and the new “Rose”. We also respond to listener feedback (a rarity!) and share some stories about meeting Doctor Who celebrities on the con circuit. This epi...

Crusty

May 01, 2022 01:49 - 1 hour - 36.3 MB

Two Southern gents and a Yankee get drunk and talk about the latest episode, “Legends of the Sea Devils”, and one of us actually like it (for the most part). We also speculate over the “next time” trailer for the last Chibnall/Whittaker story and RTD2’s plan to model the series after the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Of course, the conversation deviates now and again into subjects not suitable for the “Cancel Culture Club”.

90s So Hard (Bonus Track)

March 26, 2022 14:07 - 19 minutes - 9.09 MB

JB, Sean & Chris wax poetic about the early days of the Internet and physical media.

Grey Bezos

March 26, 2022 05:54 - 1 hour - 28.5 MB

In the midst of moving cross country and starting new jobs, our fearless podcasters find the time to make their monthly boys-night-out over Skype and record a Classic Who commentary. Even though we recorded this on Patrick Troughton’s birthday, Chris wanted to watch a Jon Pertwee story, so we end up doing a drunken commentary on one of our favorites, “Carnival of Monsters”. We also pay tribute to the nicest human alive today.

Shonadick (The Companions Draft)

February 26, 2022 16:59 - 1 hour - 29.6 MB

We went long on the recording session for the previous episode, so since I will probably be busy for a while setting up my new digs in NOLA (and am currently recovering from a nasty ear infection), I've split the recording into two episodes. Listen in as Chris, Sean and I recruit our teams of time traveling companions from a pool of one-off Doctor Who characters. Enjoy! - JB (still in Chicago)

Cancelled By Proxy

February 20, 2022 01:10 - 1 hour - 30 MB

While many of the Doctor Who podcast community squee away at Gallifrey One, our fearless three have their usual drunken ramblings over Skype. Topics include: Moving to N’awlins, ketchup on hotdogs, JB’s podcast anniversary, lurking thru the tweets from Gallifrey One, Paul Cornell gas lighting a fan on Twitter, apparently criticism now equals toxic fandom, the f*cking David Tennant rumors, Chris & Sean present The Doctor Who Book Club, Sean insults Gary Russell to his face, Chris gets triggere...

Chekhov's Beans

January 15, 2022 16:05 - 1 hour - 23.9 MB

We decided to do our review of “Eve of the Daleks” as a commentary, so whether you still have it on your streaming device or will be picking up the eventual DVD/BluRay release, listen along as Thasmine (oh dear god they’re really doing this?!) and company warm up some beans, run around like pieces on a ex-girlfriend's Monopoly board, and share their feelings for each other. Also, Chris can infuse THC into anything, Sean broke down and watched “The Mandalorian”, and JB stayed up till 3am to ed...

Doctor Who Gives A Flux

December 18, 2021 19:05 - 1 hour - 46 MB

Much like the latest season of Doctor Who itself, this episode of the podcast is long and rambling and has very shitty sound quality - more shitty than usual because Sean was Skyping via phone and I hadn't realized until after we finished recording that my mic wasn't plugged in, and all my audio was recorded by the built-in microphone in my Macbook. So if you are easily offended by shitty audio quality as well as an honest and brutal critique of "Doctor Who: Flux", you probably shouldn't lis...

Trailer Trash and the Racist Booger Man

October 23, 2021 16:08 - 2 hours - 31.3 MB

We talk trash about the trailer for "Doctor Who: Flux" before having trash thrown on us with the "randomly" picked Classic Who story "Time Flight" for this month's commentary. After sitting thru that monstrosity, we're taking a month off and will return to review all of Series 13 in one go. See you on the other side...

The Bitch is Back

September 28, 2021 19:46 - 49 minutes - 11.8 MB

JB, Sean & Chris get together on a Monday night to discuss the news of Russell T Davies’ return as Doctor Who show-runner.

Binro Was Drunk

September 11, 2021 15:48 - 2 hours - 29.7 MB

Our very first attempt at doing a Classic Doctor Who commentary pretty much goes off the rails, but if you enjoy hanging out with your drunk friends while watching Doctor Who, this is the next best thing. We talk our way thru “The Ribos Operation”. Hopefully next month we’ll have new episodes to talk about if the BBC can be arsed to schedule them.

Whittaker Away (Goodbye Mr. Chibbs)

July 31, 2021 18:48 - 1 hour - 15.6 MB

It’s a good thing we waited until the end of the month to record as we had a lot to talk about, although I still was able to edit this down to just an hour and change. We discuss the news of Jodie Whittaker and Chris Chibnall leaving Doctor Who in 2022, we debate whether or not the show should continue, and we also fit some discussion on the Kevin Smith/Masters of the Universe controversy. - JB

Sean's Chicago Stories (Bonus Track)

July 31, 2021 15:56 - 2 minutes - 599 KB

While attempting to cheer up Chris over the fate of his beloved Cubs, Sean tells a heartwarming story about his father which soon takes a dark turn.

The Slash

June 26, 2021 21:33 - 59 minutes - 28 MB

We really had to trim the fat on this recording in order to spare you all from endless conversations about “Inside Number 9”, “Are You Being Served” and “Blake’s 7” so that you get almost a solid hour of mostly Doctor Who discussion. As always, listener’s discretion is highly advised. TOPICS INCLUDE: Tony Selby is not dead, a few words on Jackie Lane (who is dead … as a Dodo), misremembering which boy band was in that BBC 50th Anniversary thing, watching Doctor Who on Pluto TV, the time JB fo...

Cat Flap

May 16, 2021 01:01 - 1 hour - 33.3 MB

We couldn’t avoid discussing the whole Noel Clarke and John Barrowman scandal, especially as WE WERE THERE FIRST with breaking the Chicago TARDIS clip six months before it went viral! We also talk about “The Key to Time” for a bit, but finding nothing else good in the Doctor Who world to discuss, we end up talking about our cats.

"David Tennant with T*ts"

April 17, 2021 20:07 - 1 hour - 37.7 MB

We go back without a game plan to our drunken ramblings this month. Topics include: the final results of our Tournament of One-Shot Doctor Who Villains, news of the upcoming series being centered around Liverpool, meeting the new companion’s parents (again!), the Big Finish spoiler of the week, a quickie review of the Lost Stories audio “Return of the Cybermen”, how the Hartnell era took the most chances, Vickie > Susan, dinner with the Pertwee’s, Tom Baker in “Remington Steele”, what the coo...

March Badness

March 27, 2021 23:04 - 1 hour - 27.6 MB

We’re a few weeks late dropping this episode as we’ve been busy getting and recovering from our Covid-19 vaccinations, but we’re back talking Doctor Who. This month we let loose 32 of the most infamous one-shot villains in a tournament to see which one will come up on top. We whittle it down to 16, and you can find us on Twitter to vote for your favorite one-shot villains in the next round. We also read a piece of fan mail and give our latest Netflix suggestions.

No Clever Title - We Rank The Doctors

February 06, 2021 23:50 - 2 hours - 31 MB

Depressed over Gallifrey One being cancelled due to Covid-19? Got two hours and change to kill? Listen in as JB, Sean & Chris rank ALL 14 Doctors for the ULTIMATE Doctor Who ranking. They also get into geek TV FOMO, the Series 24 Blu-Ray infomercial, and the usual bitching about Big Finish replacing dead actors.

ADAB

January 10, 2021 16:39 - 1 hour - 15.4 MB

I’m very surprised I was able to put together a cohesive edit out of this month’s drunken ramblings. It’s the last time I’ll have four shots of Bacardi mixed with Coca-Cola before recording a podcast, cause I get really shouty again. I blame this week’s insurrection. Anyway, Chris, Sean and I review “Revolution of the Daleks” and discuss the rumors about Jodie Whittaker leaving the series and a new companion joining. Please drink responsibly. - JB

Pre-Show: Post-Insurrection

January 10, 2021 00:37 - 41 minutes - 10 MB

Before we discussed the new episode of Doctor Who which aired on New Years Day, Chris, Sean and I had to talk it all out about this week's events at the U.S. Capital. We hope this brings you some comfort and solace, and I encourage you all to keep the conversation going. We must never forget what happened this week and we must never let it happen again. Our review of "Revolution of the Daleks" will drop later this week. - JB

The Doctor Who Gives A F*ck Xmas Special

December 06, 2020 05:31 - 1 hour - 28.3 MB

This month the podcast has the most Doctor Who content it’s had in a good long while as JB, Sean and Chris rank and review ALL 13 Doctor Who Christmas Specials from the modern era. They also speculate about what we’ll see in the upcoming New Years Day episode “Revolution of the Daleks”. Also, JB finally started watching “The Mandalorian” and Sean records his real-time reaction to the Dalek YouTube videos. WARNING: this episode contains callbacks to jokes that were edited out of the podcast. H...
