Show Notes: Nostalgia, Recorded at 5:45 in the Morning For their first dip into the 1990s Wilderness Years, John and Jim take on The Paradise of Death—the five-part BBC Radio serial that brought Jon Pertwee, Nicholas Courtney, and Elisabeth Sladen back together in 1993 for Doctor Who's 30th anniversary. It's a lavishly produced piece of nostalgia with everyone slipping effortlessly back into their roles, and Jim surprises himself by having far more to say about it than he expected. But it's also, both hosts agree, a real mixed bag—one that runs long enough to test even a devoted listener's attention. A Theme Park That Predicted the Future Space World, London's flashy new amusement park, runs on "ER"—Experienced Reality, a full-immersion virtual experience that the hosts note eerily anticipates where technology sits today. The opening episode earns near-universal praise from both hosts, complete with a sound effect for entering VR that somehow just works. From there, the story spirals out to an alien world, a corporation with sinister motives, gladiatorial games, and a plant with a very dark secret. When You Bring Back the Legends But Don't Give Them Much to Do Here's where the hosts wrestle with the production. Jon Pertwee shines and the female guest character, Onya, nearly steals the whole thing—but the Brigadier spends most of the story, as Jim dubs him, the "backseat Brig," and Sarah Jane is saddled with more victim duty (and with the widely loathed new photographer Jeremy Fitzoliver) than the fans would have liked. There's a debate about whether leaning on nostalgia alone is enough when the beloved characters aren't given real material, and a discussion of the ways Barry Letts's script reaches for a more "mature" register than classic TV Who ever did—some of it landing, some of it distinctly uncomfortable. A Continuity Snag Only a Barry Letts Could Introduce In a move that baffled fandom, the script stages a first-time introduction between two characters who had already met on screen. The hosts dig into exactly where and when that introduction really happened, why nobody in the room caught the error, and what it reveals about how much (or how little) oversight this side project got. There's a running argument that a Terrance Dicks-style continuity person could have saved the production from itself. Reverse the Polarity of the What Now? One creative choice genuinely sours Jim: the story pauses to deconstruct a certain beloved Third Doctor catchphrase, explaining away something that never needed explaining. It sparks a lively debate about which Doctor catchphrases should simply be left alone (Allons-y, my giddy aunt, brave heart) and whether taking the Mickey out of Pertwee's signature line crosses a line of its own. There's a happier callback later, too—a Venusian lullaby and a fondly remembered name from the Pertwee era that the hosts were delighted to hear. A Death That Actually Lands Amid the mixed feelings, the hosts single out a genuinely affecting moment of grief in the final episode—the kind of heartfelt reaction to a character's death that earlier Doctor Who so often skipped right past. It's a reminder of what the production gets right even as the hosts find their attention wandering through the sprawling later episodes. Production Details: Broadcast: BBC Radio 5, August 27 – September 24, 1993 (five 30-minute episodes) Writer: Barry Letts | Director: Phil Clark (who would return for the sequel) Starring: Jon Pertwee (the Doctor), Nicholas Courtney (Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart), Elisabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane Smith), Jane Slavin (Onya) Villains: Harold Innocent (Freeth), Peter Miles (Tragan) Also Featuring: Maurice Denham (the President), Richard Pierce (Jeremy Fitzoliver), Jonathan Tafler (Captain Waldo Rudley) Title Music: Ron Grainer, arranged by Peter Howell; additional music by Peter Howell of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop Doctor Who Veterans in the Cast: Peter Miles (Dr. Lawrence in Doctor Who and the Silurians, Professor Whitaker in Invasion of the Dinosaurs, Nyder in Genesis of the Daleks), Maurice Denham (Professor Edgeworth in The Twin Dilemma), and more Context: Produced to give Doctor Who a presence for its 30th anniversary, alongside the success of the Virgin novels; the sequel The Ghosts of N-Space would air in 1996, shortly before Pertwee's death Novelization: By Barry Letts (a faithful transcription with little added) Key Discussion Points: Why the first episode is the strongest and how VR/ER anticipates modern technology The "backseat Brig" problem and Sarah Jane's reduced role The uselessness of Jeremy Fitzoliver The baffling on-air "introduction" of two characters who'd already met The more mature/edgy touches (the death penalty debate, Tragan's menace, political commentary) and whether they belong The decision to deconstruct a classic Pertwee catchphrase Which Doctor catchphrases should be left untouched Why even the biggest names (Barry Letts, Stephen King) still need an editor Could this have been a story for a different Doctor and companion team? The heartfelt handling of a character death in the finale Coming Up Next (Patreon): Monday (Patreon Exclusive 182): Music, the Memory TARDIS wheel, and two single-part Doctor Who Magazine comics—"A Glitch in Time" and "Evening's Empire" (though there's a tale behind that second one). Wednesday (Main Feed): Shada—already available here on the Patreon feed, now shared with the main feed to mark its VHS-era timing. Friday (Patreon): Dimensions in Time—the Children in Need multi-Doctor special. Jim finally sees what all the fuss is about, with guest podcaster JB Anderton joining the discussion.

The history of tampons and taboos around menstruation products is shocking and incredibly thought-provoking. Why?! First off, tampons go back WAY FARTHER than decades. In fact, there’s an insane history for what cultures have put up their lady parts for many centuries. This episode takes you from ancient menstruation times through the ads for unmarried women in the 1950s *You can’t help but laugh at the...well, you’ll see* to controversies still very prevalent around the world about tampon use.  Grab your favorite party (lined?) panties and join me for learning:  What materials for makeshift tampons were used historically *So rough, literally* The first time the word “period” was ever uttered on TV (Who said it? A famous actress you’ll know) Why Word War I had a big part in menstrual cycles What 1950s ads did to market to “unexperienced women” - who hadn’t had “things” up their woman parts yet How a male doctor came up with the modern tampon The meaning the word behind “Tampax” How long it took from the modern tampon being patented → To it actual being openly known and used *insane* What 50 Shades of Grey reveals about tampons today Why the 2016 Olympics had a big effect on the taboo around tampons still in many parts of the world  My honesty on realizing I have a biased perspective from how I was raised & where I’m from + *you’ll hear more on this in episode* -- As I share about the perspective of tampons today, I know I don’t know everything on this subject. I am asking for your stories and experiences with menstruation products to truly understand stories from every angle, culture, location because I KNOW I’m not an expert and want all sides of the history we’re building now, we are in this together - Please do DM your stories or thoughts to share @allisonevelyn_ or @brandwithbite My own interest was sparked by experiences shared within the episode. This is fascinating and a topic I feel is very important to address, especially for women’s rights and freedoms, so this is only part 1 of Menstruation Marketing. The next part will be released soon, going into the more sustainable yet also effective menstruation products that have come in the last few years and THEIR marketing challenges. As shared in the episode:WANNA TAKE YOUR BRAND AND WEBSITE TO THE A-LIST LEVEL?!MY ACTUALLY-FUN, GET S*** DONE PROGRAM IS NOW OPEN:  → WEBSITE COPY CATALYST IN MERE WEEKS, HONE YOUR CLIENT MAGNETIZING MESSAGE, UNIQUE BRAND VOICE AND HAVE YOUR WEBSITE PAGES ALL WRITTEN -- DONE!  OPEN ONLY UNTIL SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 16TH LEARN MORE AND SEIZE CHANCE WHILE YOU CAN -  https://allisonevelyn.com/copy-catalyst For more about the podcast + episodes:  BrandwithBite.com

What's gucci! We are back to talk movies (Eight Grade and Mission Impossible), TV (Who is America?, Sharp Objects, Power) and discuss Rhe Ringer's horrible list of this centuries best TV episodes (we were extremely triggered). We end the pod retelling our experience at Jay-Z and Beyonce's On the Run II tour.

Bruce has had enough and he blows a gasket to start the show this week. Around 18 minutes in, it's all about the first time Vince McMahon decided to do the very first "brand split" with the First Draft on March 25, 2002! Who had the idea first? What was the original plan? Who in the office was against a split? Was Flair always supposed to be the first "General Manager" in company history? Was the idea to create "dream matches" for super shows? Was the brand split based on revenues being down or strictly creative? Bruce details exactly how Vince presents an idea and the way the writers worked together in that era. Who was happiest Hogan was back in the locker room? Who did Hall & Nash not want in the nWo? Who was allegedly "blown off" by a friend at WrestleMania? How did Vince feel when people joked about his failure with the XFL on TV? Who first used the word "brand" and why did the company start using it on TV? Who won the battle: WWF or DirecTV? Was there ever a plan to do more than 16 PPVs a year? Bruce discusses Mark Henry in the Hall of Fame, more details than ever before about the WWF name change, what agreement Vince didn't honor, what other names were considered, who wanted the word "wrestling" out of the name, rumors about Rey and Eddie's low ball contract offers, why the lightweight title never caught on, whether or not Stephanie wanted to be a TV star, which Superstars got to tryout for color commentary before Taz was selected, what Vince said at the meeting with the boys prior to the draft, how and where those meetings are held, why Penn State was the host, why RAW got a new look that night, when the talent found out, which talent did know ahead of time, who had special requests, whether or not traveling partners were considered, the silliness of Steve Austin not being in the draft, how Jericho found out, why Hunter wasn't eligible, why the nWo could be drafted as a group but the Dudleyz were split, who saw the Dudleyz as singles stars, how the Austin-McMahon relationship was at this point, plus details on the first Undisputed World Title belt!

The genuine believer will guard against the false teaching and false teachers of this world. The Apostle John gets right to the point with the believers in the church when he make this precept very clear in our Scripture reference for today! Who are you watching on TV? Who are listening to on the Radio? Who's teaching you at church! Is their teaching biblical? God has given to the believer The Holy Spirit! You must guard against these false teachers and self-proclaimed messiahs in this world! Be our guard. Listen to the counsel of John as Dr. Randy preaching this message in his continuing series.
