Broader and deeper than Doctor Who...
Back in the early months of 2012 we started life as the Blue Box Podcast, a small team of three (then four, then five...) people podcasting our thoughts on Doctor Who, in the classic style of a bunch of friends the microphones were just accidentally eavesdropping on during a conversation in the pub. Over a decade later, the team has expanded and so has the remit; nowadays we publish episodes approximately three times a week, and the discussion has moved on to include any number of subjects that Doctor Who fans might find themselves chatting about during the aforementioned informal gatherings. So alongside our main subject, you'll find us talking about films, and music, and politics, and other TV programmes, and more besides - and occasionally talking to special guests about their interests too. But of course, plenty of Doctor Who.

I enjoy the doctor who content
Thank you.
Great Film Talk
I just finished listening to their episode on The Wicker Man and Don’t Look Now. These guys are fun to listen to and are not pretentious. The debate about whether or not The Wicker Man is a musical is exactly the kind of talk my friends and I have all the time. Very enjoyable—have already subscribed.
Like being invited in...
To the coolest Dr Who conversation around. Thanks guys!
