On the fifty-ninth edition of Reality Bomb, we have a super-sized episode as, one year after they first talked about Jodie Whittaker’s casting in episode 048, Graeme Burk talks to Petra Mayer, Angelique Roche and Sage Young about the new Doctor’s debut at San Diego Comic Con… and the brace of teasers, trailers and news articles all saying very little but meaning so very much. Joy Piedmont talks to vlogger and member of Doctor Who Magazine’s Team Team Claudia Boleyn about the ways Doctor Who could improve representation in a variety of ways as we debut a new segment, Perception Filter: conversations about identity and Doctor Who. And Graeme reunites with Rob Jones and Shannon Dohar — his co-hosts from the music podcast, Deeper Cuts — to talk about Doctor Who’s new composer Segun Akinola and how his work on other shows might connect with his work on series 11. Plus we have coverage from the SDCC press conference, Listeners’ Letters, a song and scenes from a meeting you won’t want to miss!
On the fifty-eighth edition of Reality Bomb, Graeme Burk brings together a group of fans who had largely never seen classic Doctor Who until they saw it on Twitch TV including Katherine Climpson, Helena Lane and Evan Teng to discuss the joys of 1960s Doctor Who alongside classic series writer Andrew Smith. Also, Adrienne Enderle talks about golf ball-munching herbivores, fathers with trowels, Egyptian queens and genocidal maniacs when Dinosaurs on a Spaceship comes to the Gallery of the Underrated. And Joy Piedmont looks into The Caves – a rock opera about The Caves of Androzani – with its co-creator Christian Erickson. Plus, a salute to Graham Strong, who provided crystal clear recordings of so much 1960s Doctor Who… and we look back on the bittersweet memories of the omnirumour.

On the fifty-seventh edition of Reality Bomb, Joy Piedmont follows up on the recent rejuvenation of the Time Team in Doctor Who Magazine by assembling a focus group of twentysomethings– who have mostly never read DWM before– to see if the magazine connects with them. There’s a slow terror afoot (very round feet too!) when our pal (and co-host the Deeper Cuts podcast) Shannon Dohar brings The Sensorites to the Gallery of the Underrated. Plus, we look to the darker corners of nature to document the internet Doctor Who troll!
