  • DWAZ #89 - LIVE AT STELLARFEST (Part 2)
    Aug 21 2025

    This week we feature the second of our LIVE panel at Stellar Fest recorded in April of 2025! This is Part 2 of a discussion in which we take the lowest-rated stories from every Doctor and review each one -- and hopefully find something good to say about them! In this installment we talk about stories from Doctors 3, 5, 6, 7. 10, 11, and 12! That's an awful lot to cover in 45 minutes but somehow we make it work!

  • DWAZ #88 - LIVE AT STELLARFEST (Part 1)
    Aug 8 2025

    In April 2025, Josh, Ashley and Alan appeared at the Stellar Fest convention in Atlanta, GA! Presented here is the first of two panels in which we review the Bottom 5 stories for every Doctor as ranked by IMDB and Doctor Who Magazine. We talk about the stories that fans routinely rank the lowest and we find positive things to say about them! Every Doctor Who story has something to love about it, right? We put that to the test!

  • DWAZ #87 - "HEAVEN SENT"
    Jul 24 2025

    This week Josh, Ashley and Alan revisit one of the modern classics - "Heaven Sent" from Series 9 starring Peter Capaldi, written by Steven Moffat, and directed by Rachel Talalay. The Doctor goes through his own personal hell as he deals with the death of Clara Oswald. This episode is frequently touted as being one of the best of the entire series; does it live up to the hype?

    But first we talk about recent comments in the press from script writer Mark Gatiss. Are the three of us the "grumpy old fans" that Mark is addressing?

  • DWAZ #86 - "THE SAVAGES"
    Jul 10 2025

    This week Ashley, Josh and Alan review the 1966 story "The Savages", recently released in a newly-animated reconstruction. "The Savages" is written by Ian Stuart Black, is directed by Christopher Barry, and stars William Hartnell, Jackie Lane, and Peter Purves. It's a particularly strong story for all three main cast with some interesting moral problems to solve.

    But first, the news -- the future of Doctor Who production, changes in streaming, and some extended media product releases!

  • DWAZ #85 - SEASON 2 WRAP-UP
    Jun 26 2025

    This week Ashley, Josh and Alan revisit the second and final season featuring Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor and reflect on the season overall. What were some of the great, good and less-good moments? How do we rate each episode differently than we did upon first viewing in light of the season as a whole? How does this season reflect the era overall (as short as it is)?

    First, though, we dig into the news, and talk about the trailer for The War Between the Land and the Sea, an upcoming Big Finish release featuring Sarah Jane and Harry, a new book project from Sophie Aldred, and a revival of the Eighth Doctor Adventures from the original Wilderness Years!

  • DWAZ #84 - "THE REALITY WAR"
    Jun 5 2025

    This week we wrap up Season 2 / Series 15 / Season 41 with a review of the season finale, "The Reality War." But this episode ended up so much bigger than we ever expected (well, we did sort of know what was coming), so there was a LOT to talk about. This episode is a recording of a LIVE show that we did on Facebook and YouTube, where we addressed comments and questions from viewers. Thank you to everyone who watched and chatted with us!

    We would love to hear from you! What did you think of "The Reality War" and Season 2 overall? Let us know let us know by emailing us at doctorwhoatoz@gmail.com or by dropping a comment on our socials!

  • DWAZ #83 - "WISH WORLD"
    May 29 2025

    The season is rapidly careening towards its end, so this week we're reviewing the first half of the 2-part finale, "Wish World," and ..... this one really came close to breaking us! After a stellar season, we really found this one frustrating. RTD is RTDing hard, y'all. This is probably our most heated discussion yet!

    First, though we have some quick news about the new spin-off series The War Between the Land and the Sea and an upcoming Big Finish release that we're looking forward to!

    We really want to hear what YOU thought of this episode! If you've got thoughts about "Wish World" that you'd like to share with us, just by email us at doctorwhoatoz@gmail.com or dropping a comment on our socials!

  • DWAZ #82 - "THE INTERSTELLAR SONG CONTEST"
    May 22 2025

    This week Ashley, Josh and Alan have a very spirited, passionate (ie heated) discussion about Episode 6 of Doctor Who Series 15 (Season 2), "The Interstellar Song Contest"! We talk about the implications of the episode, the effect events had on the Doctor, the music (of course), and more. But okay, yeah, we also talk about the surprise appearance of [REDACTED] and the unexpected bi-generation of [REDACTED]! We also delve into where the season arc might be going in the upcoming 2-part finale!
