Something wicked this way comes... at long last it's time for The Shakespeare Code! You have waited long enough, and here we have it for you. Patrons got the episode a couple days early, but the public release is here, on the sixteen-year anniversary of the episode! Joining us on the episode is a very special guest, Skye of the Queer Archive! Together we discuss how the episode handles the legacy of Shakespeare and its historical setting, its problems with racism and transphobia, the relationship between Martha and Ten, and touch on ways that later eras of Doctor Who do things differently.

IT'S TIME TO MEET MARTHA!

In this episode Lucia and Talia tackle the infamous Love & Monsters with the help of their friend Priya. We gush about Jackie and her journey, discuss gender roles in fandom spaces, and try to get to the bottom how an Abzorbaloff even … works?  Are there secret hidden depths to Love & Monsters or is it really the worst episode of Doctor Who EVER?   You can find transcripts for all of our episodes at wibblywobblytimeywimey.net/transcripts.  Support Wibbly Wobbly: paypal.me/wibblypod  You can find us on Twitter, Tumblr, and Instagram @WibblyPod, and you can send us an email at wibblywobblytimeywimeypod@gmail.com with all of your burning questions and scathing remarks that you'd rather not shout at us online.

We're back to our regularly scheduled episodes covering series two with THE IDIOT'S LANTERN! And... we didn't like it.

Talia and Lucia are joined by the illustrious Nicole Hill of Black TARDIS and Black Girls Create in a rousing discussion of Rise of the Cybermen and The Age of Steel!

Talia and Lucia are back to talking about series two, where pre-revolutionary France is on a spaceship, the Doctor gets over the fact that Reinette isn’t a seven-year-old way too quickly, we gush over Madame de Pompadour, get vocal about our dislike of certain tropes in Doctor Who and Moffat’s writing, and advocate for why you don’t need trauma in your life to appreciate the good things.
