Podicle commented on the post, The Boys are Back in Town 1 week, 1 day ago
My son was asking about Oasis last night and why he was hearing them everywhere (yes, even here in Australia). I told him about my first brush with Oasis, how some time in the early 90s I was slouching on a sofa […]

It’s a good interview and Noel comes across as very likeable. Dan (one of the hosts) assembles and wires Noel’s pedal boards and no doubt assembled the one used in the upcoming tour.

Two boys, 19 and 17. A pair of lovely, gentle, beautiful young men who have never caused us a moment of parental torment. The eldest is 19 and in his second year at uni studying architecture. He lives in his […]

Podicle commented on the post, Man, this band is "tight". Or are they "in the pocket"? 2 weeks, 6 days ago
Tight can perhaps be understood better by considering its converse: loose. Loose is like the live Stones on Get Yer Ya Yas Out. Instruments waft in and out of focus, time hastens and slows and there is a slightly […]

Dalhalla sounds like a great name for a viking themed vegetarian restaurant.

It’s a rare week that Riot doesn’t get a spin here. Probably my favourite album.

Strongly recommend the self-narrated audiobook of his autobiography. He has the hesitant delivery of someone not comfortable with reading aloud, but he is extremely endearing and genuinely seems like one of the […]

Good insight. My son informed me that Gatwa will be the first Dr not to have encountered Daleks and Cybermen.

Interesting. On the train to work last week I was marvelling that almost every book I saw being read was some brick-sized sci-fi/fantasy tome. It warmed my heart, until I realised that this is pretty much a […]

Agree about tiresome references back and forth. The best Dr Who episodes were always where the Doc landed on some random planet, helped the 8 natives overcome some sinister villain, and then buggered off, never to […]

Interesting! I’ll mention that to him.

Thanks KFD. Futurama has been a fixture in our house. He watches occasional other series (Andor, I think?) but he’s a quirky kid and I think the quirkiness of Dr Who is what appeals to him.

I do most cooking and home maintenance activities. We both clean (with help from the robot vacuum and occasional cleaners). Lady Podicle does virtually all laundry and household finances/admin work, for which […]

Totally agree about the episode format. First episode used to always be setting things up with the baddie reveal at the end of the episode. There was room for an actual story arc.

I’m presuming Gatwa is a great actor, but it’s as if for character direction he was given a post-it note that said ‘Flamboyantly gay BFF. Cries every episode to show how empathetic he is.’ The show is so desp […]

Yes, it was good and notably it was the ‘Doctor-lite’ episode for the season.

Based on the comments in this thread I gave WBN a listen for the first time in about 30 years. I’m afraid it still sounds like a bunch of expositional filler from a musical. But then again, I also feel that a […]
