Radio Free Skaro #1064 - Not Simply To Amuse

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!
