The Phillip Carter Show

As you may have heard, Ncuti Gatwa has been launched from Doctor Who with such speed that his local spacetime is slowing down. I wanted to briefly share my thoughts on this, because nothing bad has happened to authors who have had opinions before. Firstly, when I read “DOCTOR WHO AXED” in the papers, I was surprised to learn it was not merely the first three words preceding a list of people attack...

Hello everyone, If you’re new, you’ve not heard of that big weird poetic sci-fi novel I have been writing forever, so I’ll start by telling you it is called THE STEPHANIE GLITCH and it is about reincarnation. The first novella is already up on Amazon, and there are going to be at least six more. It’s a big, weird story. Eventually it will be a big, weird hardback. And then a big, weird TV series....

I’m bringing the satire articles back. I’ve missed them. Before we begin, I feel I must let you know I’ve used my sense of humour for this one, so it gets dark. Goths - The keystone species Britain is going through a depression. People, from the Arts and otherwise, are now enjoying claiming that Britain does not have a culture, that British people merely steal other cultures. But I ask, is that no...

Yes, a double whammy. I’ve had this post in my drafts for a while, so I thought now is a good time to beam it out. It is a fitting preamble for my next Substack project… comedy. By the way, NSFW means NOT SAFE FOR WORK, as in, please do not show your boss this email unless you work somewhere cool and they have a sense of humour. A lot of writing these days is safe. Mine could be too. I could write...

The future looms, some manic hyperobject of surreal story and heavy concept. Beep Beep. Your starship wakes you up… But it isn’t speaking in its usual voice… “It’s been a long while, captain. Let’s test your memory. Do you remember this banner?” “I… I mean… Phillip used it to signal something ahead of time. It’s nearly here… Two weeks.” “Two… weeks…” “TWWWWOOOOOO, WEEEEEKS.” The talking stops. You...

Aaron is one of my favourite people. We meet up once a week on discord to write comedy together in our comedians group, and he is always very supportive and kind to the younger, less experienced writers. You can see all of Aaron's books here > https://amzn.to/3H053Mj (full disclosure, I'm an Amazon Affiliate thanks to my time as a Lego microcelebrity, so if you buy his books through the...

I'm excited to get guests in the studio again after a break of a few months, but what have I been doing in the meantime? Well, I hosted a few open mics, realised I've secretly been a comedian this whole time, and I tidied my room. I was recently interviewed by James Flynn. You can read about it here .

I have realised that I can directly record audio to substack, which is nice, but doesn't allow for the same range that ANCHOR does I also have a radio job now so would like to put some episodes here from the backlog https://realphillipcarter.substack.com/ Get full access to RealPhillipCarter at www.realphillipcarter.com/subscribe

I quite like that I now have to add a SERIOUS tag to my poetry, as I am becoming increasingly known for the silly stuff. It's nice being both. Doesn't make it easy to market, but it does make life more fun. Anyway, I am launching a time travel trilogy on Kickstarter.
