    Back To Earth Retrospective: Part Three

    In our final ever episode of The Garbage Podcast, we’re closing out our celebration of Back to Earth’s 15th anniversary with a look back at the story’s concluding part. By the episode’s own quantum logic, is Lister a murderer? Which prime time family drama does Doug think is naff? And if your sitcom seems to be leaning more heavily into drama than normal, can you balance that by having one of your cast smash their c**k and bollocks into a desk, while two of the others get twatted by rakes? All these painful questions and more will be covered as Alex, James and Andrew try one last time to prove that even though they’re disgusting, sometimes they can be quite listenable.

    Back To Earth Retrospective: Part Two

    In our continuing celebration of Back to Earth’s 15th anniversary, we look back at the story’s second part in our penultimate podcast. Does this part have some similarities with another British televisual institution? Just why won’t real life Fan Club chairman James Bull change his name to Reg Wharf? And at what point in the production did it occur to anyone that a Smart car only has two seats? All these compact questions and more will be covered as Alex, James and Andrew reminisce about what is arguably the strangest episode of Red Dwarf ever made.

    Back To Earth Retrospective: Part One

    ‘Just had to say one last goodbye.’ Yes, as we said on our last episode, we have reached the end of this podcast. But while we’ve had episodes covering every TV episode of the show, there’s one story we’ve never covered. Until now. So for one final time, join us over the next three days for three editions of The Garbage Podcast covering Red Dwarf’s return with Back to Earth. How did the approach to the show change after a decade off air? What effect did the rushed and limited production have on the story? And what strange abuse was shouted at the cast at the Berkley Square promo for the story? All these deranged ramblings and more will be covered as Alex, James and Andrew debate what is the greater sign of listlessness; spending your days trying to annoy your bunk mate by ironing sneezes, or spending over a decade podcasting about Red Dwarf?

    Series VIII Reviews: Only The Good

    In this final edition of our celebration of Series VIII’s 25th anniversary, we look back at the series’ finale, ‘Only The Good’. Was it a fitting end for both the series, and for a decade, seemingly for the show itself? Given his skelital form, can one really knee Death in the happy sack? And in the space of one podcast, how many times can we fit in the word Cesiumfrancolithicmyxialobidiumrixydixydoxidexidroxhide? All these sesquipedalian questions and more will be addressed as for the final time, Alex, James and Andrew return to the show for a silver anniversary.

    Series VIII Reviews: Pete (Part Two)

    In this edition of our continuing celebration of Series VIII’s 25th anniversary, we look back at the seventh episode of the series, Pete (Part Two). Do all JMC ships carry a stock of dead cows? Would Ridley Scott’s magnum opus be improved by replacing the alien with a dinosaur? And Archie; just… why? All these questions and more will be addressed as Alex, James and Andrew prick holes in the penultimate episode of the series.

    Series VIII Reviews: Pete (Part One)

    In this edition of our continuing celebration of Series VIII’s 25th anniversary, we look back at the sixth episode of the series, Pete (Part One). How does stretching the sotry to two parts affect the structure? What is the terrible secret of Birman? And how many knob based gags is too many? All these hard questions and more will be addressed as Alex, James and Andrew undertake the punishment duty of examining ‘the one with the dinosaur in’.

    Series VIII Reviews: Krytie TV

    In this edition of our continuing celebration of Series VIII’s 25th anniversary, we look back at the fifth episode of the series, Krytie TV. Do the jokes save the episode from the questionable premise? Just how dirty are the female inmates of The Tank if Women’s Shower Night take a full 3 hours? And what about… THE APPEAL! All these questions are more will addressed as Alex, James and Andrew finally get candid with to the epiosde we’ve dreaded talking about all these years.

    Series VIII Reviews: Cassandra

    In this edition of our continuing celebration of Series VIII’s 25th anniversary, we look back at the third episode of the series, Back in The Red – Part 3. Is iTunes right to include this episode in ‘Doug’s Definitive Dwarf’? What is the optimum number of stages to make a Rube Goldberg machine funny? And just why does a super cimputer with the power to accuratly predict the future require a floor standing fan? All these questions are more will be addressed as Alex, James and Andrew return to the episode widely regarded as the best of the series and see if it blows them away.
