Are you tired of old men ranting about the current state of both Doctor Who and Star Trek? Well, brace yourself for more as Screen Rant of all places has a well-thought out piece about the future of both franchises and we may have cogitated more than is strictly necessary about the topic! Plus we look into a new set of action dollies from Character Options, Big Finish reveals, Tubi bringing back on-demand Doctor Who (in the US) and we're Making It Political as we interview writer Lizbeth Myles about her new book, Where We Stand, Where We Fall – The Politics of Doctor Who!
