A big week for beginnings this week, with a new Doctor, a new origin story for the Daleks, and a whole new approach to defeating the bad guys. Oh, and a new podcast to discuss them all on. So let's welcome Patrick Troughton to the studio floor, as we discuss The Power of the Daleks. Notes and links The most recent Blu-ray release of The Power of the Daleks was the Special Edition in 2020, which includes a compilation of all the surviving footage, including material shot on an 8mm film camera pointing at a TV screen. This material was also included on the Lost in Time DVD release way back in 2004. Simon also mentions a site which chronicles the upsetting history of Doctor Who's missing episodes. It's called The Destruction of Time, and it's well worth reading, if a bit dispiriting at times. The Omnirumour was a series of rumours arising during 2013 that as many as 90 missing Doctor Who episodes had been found and were ready for return to the BBC Archives, possibly as part of the 50th anniversary celebrations. This didn't happen, obviously, but we did at least get nine episodes: five episodes of The Enemy of the World and four of The Web of Fear. Let's continue the tradition: here is Elizabeth Sandifer's essay on this story, which (inevitably) discusses the importance of mercury to the new Doctor's character. Nathan and Brendan refer to Kieran Hodgson's Bad Doctor Who Impressions version of The Daleks, which is something you should go and watch immediately. James very thoughtfully plugs Brendan and Richard's new podcast about The Avengers, called The Three-Handed Game, in which they are joined by old friend of the podcast Steven B to discuss episodes from different eras in the history of the show. At the end of the episode, Simon recounts the story of the gradual revelation of The Power of the Daleks throughout the 70s, 80s and 90s. Among the things he mentions are Peter Haining's Doctor Who: A Celebration (1983), the Radio Times Doctor Who 20th Anniversary Special (also 1983), The Making of Doctor Who by Malcolm Hulke and Terrance Dicks (2nd edition, 1976), an edition of DreamWatch Bulletin (possibly issue 121 in December 1993) announcing the upcoming publication of the telesnaps in Doctor Who Magazine, and the discovery by Damian Shanahan of some clips from this story in an Australian TV Show called Perspective: C for Computer. Flight Through Entirety discussed The Power of the Daleks in Episode 11: Bum Wetting. Follow us Nathan is on X as @nathanbottomley, Brendan is @brandybongos, James is @ohjamessellwood, and Simon is @simonmoore72. The 500 Year Diary theme was composed by Cameron Lam. For now at least, 500 Year Diary shares a social media presence with Flight Through Entirety. So you can follow us on Mastodon and Bluesky, as well as on X and Facebook. Our website is at 500yeardiary.com. Please consider rating or reviewing us on Apple Podcasts, or we'll write next week's shownotes in a completely incomprehensible acrostic code. And more You can find links to all of the podcasts we're involved in on our podcasts page. But here's a summary of where we're up to right now. Flight Through Entirety will be back at Christmas in July to discuss The Return of Doctor Mysterio, and we'll be covering Peter Capaldi's final year on the show after that, concluding with Twice Upon a Time at Christmas. The Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire will be back a couple of days after the screening of the first two episodes of Season 1 of the Ncuti Gatwa Era on 11 May. In the meantime, you can hear our hot takes on the four episodes we've seen of Doctor Who's second RTD era. There's also Startling Barbara Bain, our Space: 1999 commentary podcast. We've covered the first four episodes of Series 1; Episode 5 should be out in the next couple of weeks. Maximum Power will be back later in the year to talk about the final series of Blakes 7. And finally there's our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, we said farewell to Star Trek: Enterprise by watching that universally acknowledged Star Trek war crime, These Are the Voyages….

This episode we are joined by Moon J. Cobwebb - friend-in-fandom and rather marvellous writer in their own right - to discuss K9 Episode 6, "Fear Itself", originally broadcast on 15 February 2010. "Fear Itself" was written by Everett DeRoche & Graeme Farmer and directed by Karl Zwicky. Listeners can follow the podcast on Twitter at @K9BingeQuake or email feedback and comments to us at k9bingequake@gmail.com. ** Credits: Hosts - Tom Marshall (he/him) & Kevin Burnard (he/him) Guest - Moon J.

Douglas Rushkoff is a media and tech critic who has been called "one of the world's ten most influential intellectuals" by MIT. He has hosted PBS Frontline documentaries and written many books including Life Inc., Throwing Rocks at the Google Bus, and most recently Survival of the Richest: Escape Fantasies of the Tech Billionaires. Today we talk about how Silicon Valley's elite are trying to shield themselves from the consequences of inequality and climate destruction. Douglas' new book builds on an experience he had several years ago, where several billionaires called him out into the desert to ask him how to survive "The Event," an anticipated apocalyptic catastrophe that would send them heading for their bunkers. He shows how the super-rich often don't feel like winners. They feel scared about a coming giant global rupture. Some want to upload their consciousness and merge with machines. They are lost in fantasies about a transcendent future that bear striking similarities to Christian ideas of the Rapture. Our conversation touches on many topics, including right-wing conspiracy theories, Timothy Leary, metaverses, simulated cats, James Brown, plants, bunker jacuzzis, and Mussolini. But we focus on what Douglas calls "The Mindset," the ideology held by the world's "tech bros" that envisions an escape from material reality and the merging of humans and machines: "Climate change is the excuse for them to think about the fantasy they've had since they were little baby tech bros. They've always been wanting to create some kind of digital womb around themselves that could anticipate their every need and make it so they didn't have to deal with real people. [It's] the dream of being the last person alive and getting all the toys." — Douglas Rushkoff Douglas makes the case for viciously mocking tech bros who entertain damaging and delusional beliefs. He shows how what we really need is to care for the planet, care about each other, and not lose ourselves in techno-solutionist fantasies about transcending the material world. The "bunker strategy" for dealing with chaos, he says, won't work, because human survival depends on the survival of society. "What happens when you need a new heater for the jacuzzi?" he asks. You can live alone in a bunker for a few weeks or months, maybe. But the only realistic long-term path forward is to build a resilient society and planet. The Vanity Fair article on neo-reactionary politics is here, and more on neoreaction can be heard in our interview with Elizabeth Sandifer.

While Netflix's Sandman series has gone over well with many fans, not everyone is pleased. This week Emmet talks with comics commentator Elizabeth Sandifer, who has found the series to be vastly inferior to the original comics, and gives us her reasons in a very entertaining and informative way.

Elizabeth Sandifer co-wrote the 33 1/3 book on Flood (with former guest Alex Reed) and is here to talk about a non-Flood song, "Become a Robot" from TMBG's 1985 demo tape and collected on Then: The Early Years. Hear us attempt to decipher one of the most bizarre songs in a career full of bizarre songs. We play the only live clip of this song in existence, and Greg, Cara and little Zinnia create the only cover in existence, recorded from Madrid.  Episode edited by Avren Keating of the Waves Breaking podcast. Thanks Avren!

Hosted by Andrew Keen, Keen On features conversations with some of the world's leading thinkers and writers about the economic, political, and technological issues being discussed in the news, right now. In this episode, Andrew is joined by Elizabeth Sandifer, author of Tardis Eruditorum. Elizabeth Sandifer created Eruditorum Press. She's not really sure why she did that, and she apologizes for the inconvenience. She currently writes Last War in Albion, a history of the magical war between Alan Moore and Grant Morrison. She used to write TARDIS Eruditorum, a history of Britain told through the lens of a ropey sci-fi series. She also wrote Neoreaction a Basilisk, writes comics these days, and has ADHD so will probably just randomly write some other shit sooner or later. Learn more about your ad choices.

A recent article in Vanity Fair about the National Conservatism Conference profiles figures on the "New Right," including Peter Thiel, J.D. Vance, Blake Masters, and a deeply unpleasant individual called Curtis Yarvin, a.k.a. Mencius Moldbug. Yarvin/Moldbug is an advocate of "neoreactionary" politics and explicitly believes in ending democracy and instituting a dictatorship in the United States. J.D. Vance, who may well be a U.S. senator soon, admits in the Vanity Fair profile that he is an admirer of Yarvin's thinking. For a long time, "neoreactionary" thought dwelled mostly in the darker corners of the internet, but we may well soon see these ideas become more mainstream as the American right becomes increasingly extreme and hostile to the democratic process.Today on the podcast, author Elizabeth Sandifer joins to discuss "neoreaction": what its tenets are and why it is both incredibly stupid and incredibly terrifying. Sandifer is the author of Neoreaction a Basilisk: Essays on and Around the Alt-Right. Sandifer's book profiles some key neoreactionary thinkers and is a witty demolition of their horrible ideas. In this episode, Sandifer explains the core of neoreactionary philosophy, including some of the more bizarre ideas to percolate through this ecosystem such as the "basilisk" of the title. We discuss why these ideas catch on and the threat they pose. The photograph above is of Curtis "Mencius Moldbug" Yarvin, who looks precisely like what you'd expect a sinister pro-dictatorship pseudointellectual named Moldbug to look. 

Another special episode this time, as we welcome to the show David Gerard, author of acclaimed takedown of cryptocurrency Attack of the 50ft Blockchain, and Elizabeth Sandifer, author of acclaimed takedown of neo-reaction Neoreaction a Basilisk, to discuss Scott Alexander (or is it Siskind?) and his blog Slate Star Codex, with digressions into Less Wrong, 'rationalism', and why David is responsible for Grimes hooking up with Elon Musk. Content Warnings apply, as ever. Also, we once again we have audio that doesn't quite meet our recent standards, though its perfectly listenable.

In the second part of their look at the consequences of time travel, Ben and Mark travel thousands of years in the future to tackle 'The Ark' - a Doctor Who story that seems as relevant as ever. As the humans and Monoids cope with a deadly disease, Mark ponders the blame game in the current COVID-19 pandemic and wonders if the Monoids represent some hope for us all. Meanwhile, an Elizabeth Sandifer piece forms the crux of a discussion of the serial's racial politics and how deliberate half of it actually is. Slavery, racism, class uprisings and deadly pandemics all discussed with a good quantity of wine and whisky in their bellies. What could possibly go wrong?

EPISODE 71: THE DINOSAUR INVASION Warning: Political Content Ahead! In other words, no different from our other episodes - except in addition to our usual gang of Tony Whitt, Alyson Fitch-Safreed, and Dalton Hughes, we are joined by Trey Korte to discuss one of the most overtly political novels in the Target range, Malcolm Hulke’s THE DINOSAUR INVASION. If we don’t offend at least one person on BOTH sides of the political divide with this one, we haven’t been doing our jobs properly. And speaking of which, though it shouldn’t even have to be said: BLACK LIVES MATTER. (If you don’t think the Doctor wouldn’t be saying that right now, you’re really not getting what our favorite series is actually about. There. I said it.)

NB: For anyone wondering why I repeatedly and consistently referred to Elizabeth as "Phil" in this podcast, I should explain that this was recorded a month or two prior to her coming out as transgender. This week I had a long-awaited chat with Elizabeth Sandifer, the writer responsible for the TARDIS Eruditorum. The first part of our conversation was loosely about the Virgin New Adventures, then we moved on to talking about why Elizabeth thinks 2014's "Kill the Moon" is so brilliant.
