In this stunning podcast, two average guys try to get through as much Doctor Who as possible without going insane. Currently they’re mainlining their way through Classic Doctor Who. 800 episodes or bust, they say. And on the side, well. Books, Audio Dramas, Comics?!? Anything is possible! So in summary: They’re trying to see how much Doctor Who they can take before dying. So join them, as they laugh their way through a legacy.

356: Many Moose (The Church on Ruby Road)
It’s The Church on Ruby Road, written by Russell T. Davies and originally aired on December 25, 2023.
Show-notes:
1:23: To preempt me from a minute later in the episode, here’s the Independent article explaining what I’m talking about.
3:48: No, my memory is awful, I was born in 1996 and this makes me 13 not 10 in 2009. Silly me.
4:42: Here’s a wikipedia page about 1969 for you.
8:58: Idk here’s the very first link about oranges in Christmas stockings in the UK.
21:48: here’s the TARDIS Wiki page on the 15th Doctor’s Sonic
23:58: Not to worry, I have the video of Ncuti explaining his sonic for you.
26:13: I mean, technically kilts have purses.
32:13: Here’s that Moose wikipedia page for everyone too lazy to find it themselves.
40:27: The goblins were practical effects believe it or not.
1:04:56: Tell me I’m not crazy, please, you can hear the breathing in the theme right? Here, listen! You might actually wonder why we don’t have the breathing in the outro to THIS episode, that is, Trust Your Doctor. It’s because I ripped the audio for our intro and outro from the live orchestra performance premiere of the theme.
1:20:25: You can check out that episode of Delayed Replay where I appeared to talk about Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire

355: Take My Money and Run (The Giggle)
Oh… this money wasn’t for me?
Well this is the end of the 14th Doctor, honestly gone too soon. We only just barely got to know you but already you’re dead. Kind of. Sort of. I dunno man, this is too confusing for me. It’s The Giggle, written by Russell T. Davies and originally aired on December 10, 2023.
Show-notes:
11:52: The article is quite dense so here’s the Medium article about toll roads.
27:23: Longtime fans of Doctor Who will recognize that I’m here talking about Professor Zaroff.
41:19: No, turns out Luke really did say it in Last Jedi.
1:20:10: Here’s Russell T. Davies’ Doctor Who and the Time War.

354: A Silly Little Bean (Wild Blue Yonder)
Alternate title: It All Comes Back to Grapes
This week the TARDIS ventures where it’s never been before, the wild blue yonder. Other yonders are available, however, including the newly released forest green yonder, in addition to the classics: fire red yonder and scorching yellow yonder. It’s Wild Blue Yonder, written by Russell T. Davies and originally aired on December 3, 2023.
Show-notes:
1:26: Honestly just googled “Kafka’s works” to find a source for his work being published posthumously and instead found this long article wondering if he really wanted it destroyed or not.
2:29: Yes Last Jedi was episode 8
14:12: Just in case you forgot, Jack and the 9th Doctor did actually kiss.
17:47: Here’s the TARDIS wiki page for crouton.
21:37: Marvin the paranoid android is a character from Douglas Adam’s The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
24:18: I’m linking wikipedia a lot this week but whatever, here’s the US Air Force (the song).
32:33: I dunno I got this information about the golden gate from wikipedia too.
48:41: Wow, they really did taser grapes to make the Quiet Place noise

353: They’re Blowing Up Cars Now (The Star Beast)
It’s really here. The beginning of the second era of Trust Your Doctor.
And you thought I’d never come back, oh ye of little faith. Trust Your Doctor in Distress and all that, I heard your cries. Back with a new cohost, it’s The Star Beast, written by Russell T. Davies and originally aired on November 25, 2023.
Show-notes:
3:08: In true TYD fashion I’m pretty sure I never actually say these notes on the episode.
5:57: It’s an old saying in Tennesee, you know?
8:25: The TARDIS wiki has a summary of the Power of the Doctor though.
31:15: Honestly, I actually didn’t even think The Marvels was that bad.
34:05: Once again the TARDIS wiki has a page that can explain everything, in this case about The Celestial Toymaker.
38:23: I’m only 50% sure that the song I was referring to was Kelly Clarkson’s Underneath the Tree.
43:30: Here’s what a furby is for all the uninformed listeners out there.
58:34: Oh I lied I totally did bring those notes back (but not for Donna)
1:02:52: Here’s that ad campaign, in all its 2011 comic-con glory.

The End…?
It’s really here. The end of the first era of Trust Your Doctor. Stay tuned to find out if the show regenerates just as the Doctor does.
To peel back the curtain just a touch, it’s normally me (Dylan) who writes these descriptions. I don’t know really what to say so instead I’ll quote Brian May at Wembley: “I don’t have very much to say, so thank you very much for coming […] you’re great. We love ya.”
As Dylan just wrote in the above paragraph, I (Kiyan) don’t typically contribute to these intros, so I’m not exactly sure what to say either. But as Fall Out Boy once said, “Thnks fr the mmrs.”
Show-notes:
2:55: For one final time, check out our Blake’s 7 podcast Zenith: A Blake’s 7 Podcast.
13:47: Here’s a good blog post on “the Kurosawa method.”
16:00: Check it our supremely unsuccessful movie trilogy podcast Triple Play: A Movie Trilogy Podcast. Or don’t. I can’t control what you do.
19:07: Funhaus is actually still really funny, and I’d recommend them if you’re looking for lets players. I just don’t watch them regularly anymore.
30:15: You can read my (Dylan’s) 2021 NanoWrimo Novel “Psychic” over at my website.
37:22: Here, I’ll link straight to our video episode for you. Amazingly it has almost 350 views. (I (Kiyan) am absolutely not going to click this. Don’t even want to see one second of it. lol.)
43:00: The old logo is actually not on the website, so here it is.
43:45: Check out Dylan’s write-ups about the original Prisoner video game, the first of which you can find here.
49:35: That fan fiction reading is still up on our feed, so be sure to check that out. (Will not be linked here. Lel. -Kiyan)
1:35:30: Around 2:25 in this clip. The scene keeps a number of actors and props lucid despite the camerawork.
1:27:30: Our segment on Blue Box Podcast was on Doctor in Distress. You can hear it on that episode at the timestamp ~ 3:27:17
2:05:30: I’ll just link to the Last of the Gadarene episode for you.

Customer Reviews
“Listen”
Having listened to every “main” episode (the ones focusing on the onscreen episodes), I can confirm that this is a podcast. Not only that, but I can confirm that this is a good podcast. Dylan and Kiyan go on some of the best tangents in the universe as they break down the plots of each episode. These guys really get Doctor Who. They come up with such good ideas that they should be the showrunners someday.
I’m enjoying the podcast
First I found there Blake seven podcast, when I finish that I started listening to trust your doctor.
Thanks to progressive blindness, I can no longer re-watch episodes of shows I enjoyed last century.
I’m enjoying the trip down memory lane via your podcast.
Don’t bicker too much! :-)
Dull
Lazy and scattershot. The podcasters appear to do little to no research.
