Trust Your Doctor

It’s The Church on Ruby Road, written by Russell T. Davies and originally aired on December 25, 2023. Show-notes: 1:23: To preempt me from a minute later in the episode, here’s the Independent article explaining what I’m talking about. 3:48: No, my memory is awful, I was born in 1996 and this makes me 13 not 10 in 2009. Silly me. 4:42: Here’s a wikipedia page about 1969 for...

Oh… this money wasn’t for me? Well this is the end of the 14th Doctor, honestly gone too soon. We only just barely got to know you but already you’re dead. Kind of. Sort of. I dunno man, this is too confusing for me. It’s The Giggle, written by Russell T. Davies and originally aired on December 10, 2023. Show-notes: 11:52: The article is quite dense so here’s the Medi...

Alternate title: It All Comes Back to Grapes This week the TARDIS ventures where it’s never been before, the wild blue yonder. Other yonders are available, however, including the newly released forest green yonder, in addition to the classics: fire red yonder and scorching yellow yonder. It’s Wild Blue Yonder, written by Russell T. Davies and originally aired on December 3, 2023. Show-...

It’s really here. The beginning of the second era of Trust Your Doctor. And you thought I’d never come back, oh ye of little faith. Trust Your Doctor in Distress and all that, I heard your cries. Back with a new cohost, it’s The Star Beast, written by Russell T. Davies and originally aired on November 25, 2023. Show-notes: 3:08: In true TYD fashion I’m pretty sure I never a...

The rumors are true, Trust Your Doctor is coming back. Listen in for more details. Show-notes: 0:16: Here’s the fan fiction episode, still extant in the feed.

Dylan here. While editing this I remembered that we recorded this while I had covid. Yep. A year ago I had covid and I still sat down to  record and now I can’t even edit one episode on time. How the mighty have fallen. I dunno man, we watched Atlantis, Treasure Planetand Princess Bride.  Also this podcast is explicit, if you’re offended by bad language look away. 2:33: And, ironically...

This episode was originally intended to be the conclusion of Triple Play, but as you’ll see, not everything goes the way you think. We watched these in person, and frankly even though it was so long ago I sill remember that it was some of the most fun we had doing these podcasts. Just hanging out, watching three movies while eating an overpriced pizza. The way Triple Play was supposed to be...

The Wachowski Sisters are one of the most accomplished directoral duos of our time. Their works include…. This week we watched a fake trilogy, because for some reason we both really wanted to watch more stuff by the Wachowskis. That’s right, we watched Speed Racer, Cloud Atlas and Jupiter Ascending. Why did we do this? 1:35: I was right, Matrix Resurrections was not universally beloved...

“Unbreakable? more like unbearable” Lots of places refer to this as the Eastrail 177 trilogy since it’s based heavily around that train, so that’s what we’re going with here today. 2:50: Anyone claiming Glass to be worse than Beverly Hills Chihuahua is just lost in my book. Good thing Kiyan left the podcast so I can make fun of him for this in the show-notes. 7:50: I&...

Badadadum *snap snap* Yeah, I bet you’re wondering how I got that text to sound exactly like the Addams family song. It’s because I’m a professional sound writer. I bet you didn’t even know that was a thing. Well, it is. I needed a job after the podcast died, and that’s what I ended up doing. This week Kiyan and Dylan talk about the Addams Family trilogy, if you can c...

Aren’t all guns naked? I don’t really know what to write for this description in all honesty. I dunno. These movies were pretty funny, I guess, well the first one was anyway. After that I don’t think they were that great, and I don’t really know how to be funny about them here because it’s been so long since I’ve seen them I can’t even remember anything ab...

Something something Blue Oyster Cult. This week we watched those random animated Godzilla movies that were released on Netflix. I feel like they flew under the radar, a bit, but here we are, Triple Play, the biggest podcast in the world, shining a light on it. That’s right, if it blows up tomorrow you know why. It’s Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters, Godzilla: City on the Edge of Battle...

I like ice cream actually. Triple Play returns from the dead (ironically) to shamble (unironically) towards a middling and mediocre conclusion followed by a spectacle no one will soon forget. Man it was so weird getting back into editing this. Felt like having to relearn a skill I had long since forgotten. Anyway, this was recorded in June 2021, hopefully nothing aged poorly. It’s The Three...

It’s really here. The end of the first era of Trust Your Doctor. Stay tuned to find out if the show regenerates just as the Doctor does. To peel back the curtain just a touch, it’s normally me (Dylan) who writes these descriptions. I don’t know really what to say so instead I’ll quote Brian May at Wembley: “I don’t have very much to say, so thank you very much f...

This week we return to the podcast that kicked off everything. It’s the moment that started everything, Trust Your Doctor, coming back for its triumphant…. death. It’s the beginning of the end but the moment has been prepared for, but only as far as we usually prepare on Decorative Vegetable podcasts. It’s The Power of the Doctor, written by Chris Chibnall and aired on Octo...

Speaking of long sleeps, it’s time for the podcast to rest. I need a long sleep right now to be honest. I caught a cold a day after recording this and my brain is in so much pain right now it’s insane. About ready to pass out right now but I’m waiting for the episode to upload. The things I do for the fans. It’s The Long Sleep, written by David Tomblin and aired on August 7...

You could argue that I (Dylan) have the responsibility seat, since I edit these shows every week. I actually recently adjusted my chair and have massively improved my seating arrangement. My arms can rest a little more naturally on the table now, instead of feeling like they’re at my shoulders all the time. It’s so much easier to type and just do things in general at my desk. It’...

The past few days I’ve spent a lot of time contemplating life, staring at my reflection. I used to have a fish pond at my parents house. It was filled with Koi. They used to stay pretty small since it was a small pond, and they’d eat the algae at the bottom. Sadly most of them are dead now, because of a stork that kept coming through and eating them. It’s Reflections in the Water...

The real sound of silence is how crappy Kiyan’s audio is this week. Something something I could make a song reference here but it just seems too easy so why would I do that? Instead I’m just going to ramble at length about literally nothing. Just kidding, I won’t do that. Instead I’ll just end this description here. It’s The Sound of Silence written by David Lane and...

The More Things Change, The More They Come in Clutch. When I have parties at the airport they always make me do a confetti check when I leave. It’s required! I have to go through the metal detector, then the wand, then an x-ray machine, then an air blower, then a magnet… look it’s a whole process to get all the confetti out. Don’t even ask why it’s necessary because I...

I had an affair with a computer once. (Editor’s note: Her (2013)) It was a long time ago. Back when computers were curvy and that was attractive. She was a big hulking room sized machine. A Cray-1. Man the curves on that thing. Just knew how to turn me on in all the right ways. It’s Computer Affair written by Tony Barwick and aired on April 28, 1971. Show-notes: 0:12: My (Dylan’s...

I’m an expert on Court Martials. Look I was just kidding with that by-line. I don’t know anything about court martials actually, all I know is that they’re basically just military trials. I have as little contact with the military as possible in all honesty, although… nah I won’t say anything more. It’s Court Martial, written by Tony Barwick and aired on April 2...

Recording this episode was an Ordeal. I’ve survived loads of ordeals though. This one was pretty trivial compared to some of the ordeals I’ve been through in my life. There was that time I got held up at a red light when I really needed to pee. Now that was what I call a true ordeal. It’s Ordeal, written by Tony Barwick and aired on April 14, 1971. Show-notes: 6:11: For “on...

Is there a spacelash? Timelash, spacelash, temporallash, they’re all the same thing. It’s just a time corridor that links you to the future. Or the past. And you have to jump into it and travel through time and… I don’t know where I’m going with this, it’s 10:30 at night and I only just remembered I needed to edit the episode and quite frankly I’m already...

I had an affair with a Dalek once. No, I swear, I did! He was very loving. He treated me nicely and would always hunt down anybody who ever hurt me. If somebody said something mean to me he would exterminate them. If somebody got in my way he would destroy them. And if I did anything wrong he’d…. It’s The Dalotek Affair, written by Ruric Powell and aired on February 10, 1971. Sho...
