  • Episode 51 - The Angels Take Manhattan
    2025/12/01

    In the city that never sleeps - and where, inexplicably, the Statue of Liberty is secretly a Weeping Angel - Ken & Mike bid a fond farewell to Amy Pond and Rory Williams as they cover "The Angels Take Manhattan". Plot logistics aside, there's a fair number of interesting things to discuss in this one, especially the impact that Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill left on the show, and how they very much defined the Matt Smith era of the show as, well, Matt Smith. There's also this character called River Song that our hosts like to discuss as well.

  • Episode 50 - The Wedding of River Song
    2025/07/30

    Our 50th episode! And to celebrate, Ken & Mike are talking about ... The Wedding of River Song? (Could be worse. Could be Sleep No More.) The story's kind of a mess, but our hosts do their best to sift through it all and find what works (Amy! The Doctor and River's relationship!) and what, um, doesn't (Time happening all at once? WHAT?). There's plenty to discuss in this one, so have a listen!

    2025/05/23

    HAI!!! Have you brushed up on your Venusian aikido? Or your fencing? Hope you have, because in this bonus episode of Prepare the Timelash!!, co-hosts Mike and Ken make their first visit to the Third Doctor era with a discussion of "The Sea Devils"! There's much to discuss, and besides the story itself, they also talk about the Third Doctor's era as a whole, and why it's one of the most unique in the show's history.

  • Episode 49 - A Good Man Goes to War/Let's Kill Hitler
    2025/05/14

    Ken & Mike are about halfway through the televised adventures of River Song in Doctor Who now, but they're also back to the beginning (timey-wimey!) as they cover two episodes that uncover River's origins, "A Good Man Goes to War" and "Let's Kill Hitler". There's a lot of things for them to talk about - and to sort out as well, since both stories are crammed full of ideas. Possibly too many ideas. Possibly way too many ideas.

  • Episode 48 - The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon
    2025/02/07

    It's been a while ... but Ken & Mike are back, with a new episode looking at both "The Impossible Astronaut" and "Day of the Moon"! They're certainly some of the more unsettling stories in the Eleventh Doctor era (and the opening five minutes of "Impossible Astronaut"? WILD.) However, did our hosts actually like these stories? Tune in and find out ... and then check how many tick marks you have on your hands and face when you're done.

  • Episode 47 - The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang
    2024/09/26

    A season finale involving the end of the universe ... ? Yeah, that could be a lot of Doctor Who finales. A brilliant two-part finale that gets complicated? That narrows it down to one of the best Who series finales of all time, The Pandorica Opens & The Big Bang! This month, Ken & Mike discuss these two episodes and how they offer just about the best of everything the show can do. So, grab a mop and a fez, and have a listen!

  • Episode 46 - The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone
    2024/07/24

    "What do you know of the Weeping Angels?" And with that, Ken & Mike get into the heart of an all-time two-part Doctor Who classic, "The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone". There's a ton of stuff for our hosts to unpack in this episode - the evolution of the Weeping Angels from "Blink", how the story operates on multiple levels at once, how the mystery of River Song slowly unfurls ... and even behind the scenes, how damn good Matt Smith and Karen Gillan are in this, considering it's the first story of Doctor Who that they actually filmed. Is it the best story in Doctor Who history? (Spoilers ... that would be telling!)

If you're a regular listener, welcome back - and if you're new, welcome aboard, as we fully move into some great stories and the era of Modern Doctor Who!
