In one of the more relaxed installments of Get Off My World!, Episode 78: Inscrutable Who, the gang discuss some of the weirder corners of the classic series: Warrior’s Gate and Ghost Light! Plus, Pat plays the role of trivia-Torquemada as he inflicts impossible and interminable Doctor Who trivia questions on Kelvin, Joshua and Ariel (can you guess who wins?). Join us as we take a good look at time-traveling lions, a lot of woo happening, the right sort of nothing, the John Brown of E-Space, and the greatest f*ckin question in the world, and also somewhere in there Ariel says, “I like looking at your little face” (can you guess to whom?). Plus: Big Finish found poetry!

In our super-sized Episode 77: Irregular Acts, the team tries to kick the rust off during our first all-in-person recording since January 2020. Listen to us take a deep dive into UNIT family fun time, babble exuberantly and get lots of little details terribly wrong. (Who is Solomon Glitz?) Hear us discuss the naughty interior design of The Claws of Axos, The Dæmons‘ frumpilicious Miss Hawthorne, and the Vardan douchiness of the Big Finish audio The Scream of Ghosts. Yes, we’re in a frisky mood! So much joyous togetherness! So much crosstalk!

Never let it be said that the GOMW crew neglect to address the burning questions of our age! In Episode 76, Ariel and the other clowns zoom in close on the Season 2 William Hartnell serials The Web Planet and The Chase to investigate whether they deserve their Bad Reputation. Will we go deep into the Jungian implications of the Animus, the Cold War politics of the Zarbi, and the continuing relevance of a Joan Jett song from 1980? Tune in and find out! All this, and “The Lair of the Zarbi Supremo” too!

Get Off My World is back—and it seems, not a moment too soon! Rested — regenerated — vaxxed and boosted — with new rounds — a new co-host — relaxed swear-word protocols — and a new theme song from The Sevateem! In Episode 75: Anti-Buddhist Evangelist, Josh, Kelvin and Pat are joined by new full-time co-host Ariel Pinkerton to discuss the Fifth Doctor stories Kinda and Snakedance, and the Big Finish audio The Cradle of the Snake. We have a lot to say about Buddhism, the Mara, carnival barkers, mass-media villainy, mental disorders, J N-T’s fashion sense, and of course, a giant pink snake! The dance goes on! It is all the dance, everywhere and always!

After a long absence, Get Off My World returns with a special double-length Episode 74: Running Around Getting Killed and Not Getting Killed, wrapping up our survey of Jodie Whittaker’s second season! Join Ariel, Pat, Kelvin and Joshua as we discuss Tesla versus Edison, the English Romantics, Birdemic, the history of mental illness, the Ruth Doctor (not Doctor Ruth), and our conflicted feelings about the Master and Captain Jack. All this and Pat’s impromptu off-key performance of Yazoo’s “Only You”! We cover a lot of ground here, is what we’re saying.

In Episode 73: Beethoven Playing Brahms, the guys talk about fans and showrunners, Charles Dickens, Columbo, Polka-Dot Man and various famous musicians, but mostly about the beginning of Jodie Whittaker’s second season: Spyfall parts 1 and 2, and Orphan 55. As if that wasn’t enough, this episode was recorded live in January 2020 at CONsole Room, the Twin Cities’ premier Doctor Who convention, and so has exactly zero discussion of the coronavirus! Come join us in our simpler world!

In Episode 72: Goofy Overlords, your socially-distanced hosts Zoom their way through a discussion of the First Doctor adventure The Ark; conclude their coverage of the Fifth Doctor’s Doctor Who Magazine comic strips with “Lunar Lagoon,” “4-Dimensional Vistas” and “The Moderator”; and wind up Big Finish’s Stockbridge trilogy with a discussion of the audio adventure Plague of the Daleks. Whew! All this, plus the usual amount of digressions and hobby horses, a greater-than-average number of pandemics, and an examination of the longstanding question: Is Pat the a**hole?

We at Get Off My World are longtime experts at social distancing, and we recognize that in challenging times like this it’s important to give guidance and distraction to all our listeners. And so we are proud to present Episode 71: Ignore All Humans, in which we discuss the 1980s Fifth Doctor comic strip stories “Stars Fell on Stockbridge” and “The Stockbridge Horror,” the Stockbridge-set 2009 Big Finish audio The Eternal Summer, and, er, Timelash. We really do spend an awful lot of time on Timelash. This is our gift to you. We hope that all our listeners are safe and well! And please remember: “Laugh hard. Run fast. Be kind.“

Episode 70: Not a Lot of Legit Neuroscience is the start of an ambitious three-episode double-arc, as the guys begin discussions about Doctor Who Monthly’s 1980s Stockbridge comics and Big Finish’s “Stockbridge trilogy of audios from the 2000s! This episode we discuss “The Neutron Knights,” “The Tides of Time” and “Castle of Fear,” and if that wasn’t enough, we still find the time for The Brain of Morbius, some Dave Gibbons love and a bit of metaphysical music theory. All this, as well as Osbert Mudstealer, Maud the Withered and 30-50 feral hogs*! *Hog numbers may be approximate.

We’re back! After a long absence, Get Off My World! is back with Episode 69: It’s Okay for It to Just Happen Like That. Pat and Kelvin are joined by Ariel Leaf and Joseph Scrimshaw in front of a live audience at Convergence 2019. We discuss the state of Doctor Who (real and imaginary), a multitude of Randomizers, British robots, nontoxic fandom and much more. Plus a whole season’s worth of improvised Doctor Who stories!
