A jumbo-sized episode as Ross (@traitken) from Gallifrey's Most Wanted (@GallifreysMWPod) stops by to discuss The Aztecs, both the 1964 Doctor Who TV serial and the 1984 novelization. We have lots to say about it... as well as about critical readings of the story, OPPENHEIMER, Bing Crosby, and our favorite American soap operas.
Also contributing to the show this week are Jim Sangster (@Monster_Maker) with an introductory segment, and Doctor Who author Kate Orman, who narrates her own 1992 essay on the Aztecs book.
Audio from Game 7 of the 1960 World Series: an excerpt, and the recovered full game video.
Also discussed this week is James Cooray Smith's Substack essay on The Krotons.
