The Ood Cast is not your average Doctor Who podcast.
We aim to express the joy, the chaos and the glory of our favourite show through laughter, rhyme and song.

Five Star Beast
In which we catch up on the past three years, stand roughly in a straight line and buy things off Etsy.
"He's giving everyone a last chance. He's saying this is where the show's going. This is the politics of the show ... it's about hope and love and inclusion and diversity. So, get back on board or otherwise F&*% off. I think it's amazing that he's doing that in such a beautiful, eloquent way."

Additional notes: We're back. And we've forgotten how to use all the equipment, editing software and publishing platforms. Please bear with us as we take our first faltering steps back onto the internet, like podcasting bambis. -
Be Kind
In which we review an episode of Doctor Who, filmed in a cupboard in one take, that still manages to be everything that is kind and clever in the world.
-
Chib Changes Everything
In which we celebrate the end of a sprawling, messy, exhilarating two part finale with a sprawling, messy, (hopefully) exhilarating podcast.
-
Ghost Sandwich
In which we wax poetical, enter through the gift shop, revisit Cyberwoman and discuss P.G. Wodehouse (but mostly how to pronounce his name).
-
Panic Attack
In which we talk about our own battles with depression and anxiety, applaud Doctor Who for tackling difficult issues, read beautiful poetry and there's probably a joke in there somewhere too.
-
Flipping the Bird
In which Chris Alpha travels to Amsterdam in our suitcase-shaped TARDIS, we hear about some interesting fish parasites, Yaz finally has some agency and we find out what really happened with that talking cat in Ontario.
Customer Reviews
Great Podcast!
The best Doctor Who podcast I’ve ever listened to. Thoughtful discussion, but not gushing (like some OTHER Who podcasts out there). They actually address plot holes (rather than just saying “who cares if it doesn’t make sense?”). Well done!
Irreverent, witty Whovian Podcast!
Warning, you will laugh out loud listening to this Whovian podcast!
Witty Brits doing skits, upbeat reviews of Doctor Who and fun renditions of cover songs (with somewhat different lyrics). Watch out for cameos from other podcasters. :D
Most original Who Podcast
This podcast has really evolved from its beginning. It started as a straight talk podcast with three males who loved classic who and new who and a female new who fan. It was interesting but it really hit its stride when then started to incorporate skits and songs into the podcast. Chris Alpha, Chris Sigma, and Andrew are hilarious (especially Andrew's tendency to use hand gestures on a audio podcast) and Laura Sigma's songs often border on brilliant. My favorite skit has been the Doctor meets Sherlock. My favorite song is the Captain Jack Harkness. Keep up the great work! I'm so glad they are back after an extended hiatus.
