Doctor Whooch

In which we talk a lot about strippers. Because Christmas?

Merry Whoochmas, everyone! In this week's special Christmas episode, we revisit two specials from Christmas past - "The Snowmen" and "The Doctor, The Widow and The Wardrobe" - and we have some interesting feelings about them. Brandon yolos and mangles some Frenh pretty bad and Danica worries about the Kids These Days (take a drink) as swords-lizards and Nernia happen on the screen. It was pretty great.

This episode of Doctor Whooch was sponsored by Josh B., who provided us with some yuletide whooch for this episode! We would like to encourage this behaviour, so if you want us to mention you or maybe a project you have on an episode, send us alcohol somehow!

Outro music is "The Power of Love" by Huey Lewis & The News.

In which Brandon drinks to forget.

This week's episode features special guest Devin R. Bruce (from Scotch and Comics, The Listmakers, and Apocalypse Kow!) and a lot of alcohol! Listen as Danica and Brandon talk with Devin after he watches Matt Smith's first episodes for the first time! Marvel as... something else happens that Brandon doesn't remember! Swoon as Devin speaks with that sensuous booming voice! 

Outro music is "(Rockin') All Night Long" by Taylor Swift & Bad Lip Reading.

In which there's actual baby death.

We're back to bi-weekly in this week's installment, and our livers thank us. And we thank them. With liquor. It's vicious cycle. This week, we head back to Torchwood for the first two episodes of Series Two, "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang" and "Sleepers". Along the way Max also gets half in the bag (a plastic bag), we talk about British diversity, and Danica cries and cries and cries. Hurray!

Outro music is "Super Pretty Naughty" by Buck 65.

In which we talk waaaay too much about Passions.

This week's episode! An ending! Specifially, the ending of Series 8, and there's lots to talk about. Did we end up liking what Moffat was throwing down after a rough season? Who knows! We were drunk! Also: stuff with Danny Pink (oh my god Danny Pink) leads to a pack of lies and we gab about Big Hero 6, probably. And yeah, Passions, but whatever.

In which the pieces all fall into place. In the pezzle.

This week, we're in finalé territory, and things are getting very serious. Like "audibly gasping at the tv" serious. So if you're ready for some slurred "Dark Water" spoilers, we're here for you. If you're not, I think you might want to consider your life choices. And we're saying that as hosts of a podcast wherein we get drunk and watch episodes of Doctor Who.

That all said, we hope you enjoy the episode. It was a Steven Moffat written episode that we really, really liked? That didn't have (too many) weird gender-y body image slams? What's that all about?

In which we have a guest and get drunker than ever before. EVER. BEFORE.

In this week's special BONUS SIZED episode, we have Moneyballah$ co-host Cody F. Schmidt on the show, thus completing our collection of two out of two of the Moneyballah$. Also, we talk about everything. And I mean everything, except for maybe this week's episode of Doctor Who. (Actually, we talk a little bit about that. Sometimes.) But for the most part, we delve into musical theatre (a little) and an untold amount of slurry tangents that get subsequently weirder and weirder until we stop.

Oh, and we wore costumes! Awesome, right? You're jealous. You know you are.

In which WE TOTALLY GOT MARRIED YOU GUYS!

This week's episode was recorded live in Banff the day after we got married because we're adults. Want to hear our thoughts on "Flatline"? There's some of that in there. Want some details about our wedding and how we met? That's in there too. Want to hear about one and not the other? Well, tough, you're going to get both, and you're going to like it. Or, you're going to fast forward through some bits and/or turn off the podcast, because WHO DO WE THINK WE ARE, trying to tell you what you can and can not listen to. This isn't the 60s anymore, mom.

In which Clara's life decisions make us sad. And that's coming from a pair of people who do a drunk Doctor Who podcast.

This week, there's a "Mummy on the Orient Express", which is cool. Also, it's in space, so double cool. The Doctor once again wisks Clara off on an adventure and is kind of a dick about it. But hey, this is their last adventure together, and they can quit at any time, right??? RIGHT??? Hmm.

Oh and there's tequila.

In which there are glitter kittens and beard slaps!

This week we watched KILL THE MOON in which the moon may or may not have been killed. It's a mystery! That is solved by watching that episode of Doctor Who. Also: lots of white dudes die and misandry is enjoyed by all. TEAM CLARA 4 LYFE!

In which there is no basket of kittens. WHY IS THERE NEVER A BASKET OF KITTENS?

We're halfway through this series and more than halfway into the bottle, which is pretty apparent by the time Brandon starts going full fake Irish when attempting a Scottish accent. He doesn't apologize. We also watch "The Caretaker", the Series 8, Episode 6 of the show, and we like it, which is good. Rompsare fun, kids! More romps in the midst of the episodes that are dour as hell! Thaaaaaaaanks.

In which things get tricky.

Here at Doctor Whooch, we love a good heist. Have we talked about Leverage on this show yet? That's a thing we like. This week's "Time Heist" episode was like that, except instead of Timothy Hutton having a drinking problem, Peter Capaldi has like this yelling problem and something crazy happening with them brows. Anyway. In this episode, we piss off some Steves and talk about "Time Heist" (Series 8, Episode 5). Oh, and The Mindy Project. Have you guys watched that yet? Watch that. Watch that, like, all the time.

In which we're moving to the country.

Series 8 continues with "Listen", and we watched and drank and had the opinions. Lots of people are calling this one of the best episodes of Who in quite some time, and... well, they're not wrong, but HEY! We're drunk and we have some bones to pick with Moffet and his consistant body shaming of Clara, amoung other things. Also, we get off topic a lot, because we've been drinking. Shhhhh. Don't tell anyone!

In which Brandon has tried to upload this three times and is tired of this crap.

Let's see, what happened this time. I dunno. You get to typing, you get something pretty good down, the host site goes wonky on you, you lose all the info, you do it twice, and then you get a bit cranky and lose track of all your jokes. There were jokes, though! And, uh... something about being three weeks into the new series, and three drinks in on the podcast. Yeah. Yeaaaah. And that we like Capaldi, and we think this might be Moffet's last series (for reasons) and some other stuff. We were drunk! You are listening! Listen!

In which we're drunk in Hartford!

We're still on vacation, which means we have ANOTHER episode of Doctor Whooch ready for your ears, and this time, we're talking about "Into the Dalek", the second episode of the eighth series. What did we think? Well, we're not entirely sure. We drank more during this episode than any other episode, for vacation reasons, and we can't remember what happened. So, uh... enjoy?

In which we're on vacation, losers!

This week's episode features a first: while we've been doing Doctor Whooch long enough to talk about the two specials that rounded off Matt Smith's run as The Doctor, we've never been recording during a full series. Whelp, that's all clearly changing, because we have Capaldi to talk about! In this episode, we say things! About "Deep Breath"! What exactly? Who knows! Oh, and we also don't mention our engagement, because we recorded it before that happened but HEY YOU GUYS WE GOT ENGAGED! Isn't that cool? That's pretty cool.

In which we anger the liquor gods for the sake of your entertainment.

In this week's episode, we reach the end of the line in our exploration of the first eight Doctors with the Slyverster McCoy serial "Remembrance of the Daleks" where the Doctor and his companion Ace fight the OH MY GOD IS THAT GEOFFREY FROM THE FRESH PRINCE??!?? It is!!!

...I'm sorry, where were we? Oh. Yeah, um, the Doctor and Ace fight Daleks and racism in the 60s during Doctor Who's 25th year on the air, and it's a whole thing. We talk about it. Then we talk about Guardians of the Galaxy a whole lot, because... you guys, it's pretty rad. And we like space travellers.

In which we're dying for your entertainment! 

On this episode, we finally get to the end of Torchwood Series One with the episodes "Captain Jack Harkness" and "End of Days". One of them was really good, and one of them was something else. We'll give you a hint as to which was which: Captain Jack Harkness featured two Jack Harkness' making out a little, and the other one was dumb.

In which we discover who our Funky Bunch is.

While watching (and we use the term watching loosely) the Sixth Doctor serial Vengeance on Varos we got really tipsy and lost track of this episode pretty early on. Want some talk about JTT? How about Devin Sawa? Or hey, what's Mark Wahlberg been doing lately? (While we were editing this episode, we discovered that Mark Wahlberg is not hungry, but is a movie starring giant metal Care Bears which did pretty okay. Who knew?) The answers to this AND MORE, on this week's episode!

In which Torchwood treats us to a nice holiday tale of assisted suicide.

We're back with Captain Jack in this week and things get... happy? No, no, this is Torchwood, so things gets sad and sexy and sadnsexy. It's like schadenfreunde, but less German. Anyway, we watched "Out of Time" (Series One, Episode Ten) and "Combat" (Series One, Episode Eleven) and drank and laughed until we cried and cried and cried.

Outro music is "September" by Sisqo and Vitamin C. Yeah, you read that right.

In this week's episode, we are above dick jokes.

It's the show's one year Whoochiversary! To celebrate, we drank some Buttle Ripple Schnapps and went crazy with the 1996 Doctor Who TV movie, and attempt to hold an intervention for Eric Roberts, who is probably an actual villain right now. Also, one of our cats is a jerk. Huzzah!

In this week's episode, we have some more Torch-words about Torchwood, as Brandon visits "Countrycide" (Series 1, Episode 6) and we both check out "They Keep Killing Suzie" and "Random Shoes" (Episodes 8 and 9). One of them leaves you empty as you ponder the inevitability of death. The other leaves you hopeful as you ponder the inevitability of death. Torchwood!

Bonus note: You should listen to The Listmakers. Yes, yes you should.

In which we buy your love with new internet currencies. Or something.

On this week's episode, Brandon and Danica drop in on the Fifth Doctor, with a serial called "Earthshock", which was pretty rad. And while Brandon can't remember the who played the Fifth immediately after they watched the episodes, Danica is there to keep things on track, and punch Brandon as needed. And trust us, it's needed. Hail Hyrda.

In which Danica is a pirate.

During this week's episode, your intrepid hosts delve deeper into Torchwood with the Series One episodes "Small Worlds" and "Greeks Bearing Gifts", skipping "Countryside" for Brandon to experience another day. Also, Danica punches Brandon a few times, and things start happening that probably involve neighbours, and not ghosts. Probably. Hopefully.

In which Brandon and Danica are both kinda' sick. So. There's that.

In this week's episode, your awesome hosts are feeling not-so-awesome, but a love of Doctor Who conquers all! With hooch in hand, we explored "Pyramids of Mars" - a fourth Doctor serial that was... whelp, interesting. Weird stuff happened, and the Doctor was a bit of a jerk, but hey, there were explosions and running! Which was nice.

This week's episode (our first that can legally drink in the US!) our special guest James Leask (of Comics! The Blog fame) joins us for another two episodes of Torchwood ("Ghost Machine" and "Cyberwoman"). Things start weird and get weirder pretty quick. This is what happens when you have a drunk podcast, I guess.

This week, we're watching Torchwood (specifically the first two episodes of Series One, "Everything Changes" and "Day One"), which unsurprisingly goes really well with being drunk. In short order, Brandon serenades the audience, and Danica lets him. Then things got weird.
