I'm trying to listen to more Doctor Who audio dramas. Which would you recommend?

Well, I'm basically in the same boat as you - really new to DW audio dramas and dipping my toes into what I can xD

I've only really tried audios that I know the characters/universe from - so for example, I listened to Rani Takes on the World: Beyond Bannerman Road because i loved the world of the Sarah Jane Adventures, and Rose Tyler: The Dimension Cannon because I love the arc of Rose jumping through the parallel worlds to get to s4 of the show to find the Doctor.

I have practically no knowledge of Classic Who (not yet at least), so I can't really comment on the bulk of the Classic Doctor audios xD

If I could recommend a Torchwood audio, it would be Rhys and Ianto's Excellent Barbecue - part of the Torchwood Monthly Range, but it's a good stand-alone audio too~ It touches on some darker topics, but it's a really good character-focused story.

If you don't mind branching out from Big Finish stuff, one of my favourite fan-made audio dramas is Doctor Who: Uncharted Past (here), which has been spun-off into a great fan-film series (Doctor Who: Fractured Timeline) <3 I'm slightly biased because it's all based in Northern Ireland, but it was one of the first pieces of DW fan content I listened to, and loved it <3

Hope this helps a little bit~ <3

I believe Tentoo mentioned in Flight into Hull that Jackie telling him that he's the doctor was very important to him because she has no reason to lie or something (I know it's not the exact quote). He knows Rose would say anything to calm him down, because she loves him, so it gives Jackie the opportunity to shine and show also her importance to him. God, I love their relationship. I just wish we would get a POV from Rose regarding Tentoo, their time after Journey's End....

i don't remember him saying that, but i do believe it's the reason the audios are from jackie's pov. she's completely unbiased and brutally honest. if she didn't believe he was the doctor she would say so, and the fact that she comes to this big realization that tentoo is still the doctor is meant to drive that home to the audience because rose wouldn't doubt that-especially not a year later. (and i love that rose and pete trapped them into working their bs out lol)

i do think we are going to get some tentoorose audios soon, esp with the final rose dimension cannon audios coming around the same time as the 60th.

i think i would rather hear them be settled in present day and on an adventure, but some post je stuff would be great too.

Rose Tyler is Back at Big Finish in "Dimension Cannon" Stories!

Rose Tyler is Back at Big Finish in "Dimension Cannon" Stories! #BigFinish #DoctorWho

She’s back, again! Rose Tyler, beloved companion of the Doctor as played by Billie Piper, is back for more audio adventures with Big Finish. Returning for not one but TWO new sets of “Dimension Cannon” stories, Rose will also be joined once more by her mum Jackie Tyler (Camille Coduri) and cross-parallel friend Clive Finch (Mark Benton). While there are no story details yet for the two new sets…

[1-of-those-things]

Hi, exciter reader question here: do I need to listen to the BigFinish adventure regarding Rose and the dimension cannon first in order to understand your new story Polymorphism? Thanks.

Excellent question! No, there’s 0 required listening to get into my newest little plot bunny. (Somewhere in the back of my mind I know there are BigFinish audios I still haven’t listened to, but I mostly forgot that was even an option.) I’m just having fun with the dimension cannon as a plot device. 

Usually the only prereq for my stories is some passing knowledge of the (NuWho) show.  I’m farrrr too casual to build in things from the extended universe. (Audio? Books?? Comics??? NO way am I keeping track of all that lol) 

TL;DR: As long as you know who Rose, Martha, and Donna are, you probably have all the background needed to get into “Polymorphism.” 

Thanks for the ask!

Episode 105: Know Your Fusion

“Cuz everybody loves a callback.”

While praising Kindergarten Kid, I talked about the subjectivity of humor, and here we have the downside. This isn’t a bad episode of Steven Universe, but it doesn’t matches my sensibilities, which matters quite a bit when comedy is its major selling point. Meta humor is tricky, and for me, Know Your Fusion pushes just a smidge too hard at that fourth wall.

I’m not against meta humor in principle: going off the discussion of Looney Tunes from Kindergarten Kid, no appraisal of Daffy Duck is complete without Duck Amuck, an uproarious deconstruction of animation. Steven Universe is no stranger to self-commentary, from Crying Breakfast Friends to Peridot’s teen drama fandom to Ronaldo’s whole shtick. Hell, we even have Say Uncle, a non-canon episode with similar energy to Know Your Fusion that I mostly enjoy!

But I’m not into this canon iteration of the joke. I don’t think Sardonyx switching from a theatrical egotist bound to her native dimension to someone who knows she’s in a cartoon feels natural, and I’m not compelled by talk show or game show parodies. I’m thrilled for anyone who does enjoy this type of thing, because it’s not as if the joke is executed poorly, it’s just not the kind of joke that I’m looking for in Steven Universe.

Part of the problem is pacing, which I’m happy to criticize independently from my personal mismatch with the humor: considering Sardonyx’s goal is to find out what makes Smoky Quartz unique, it’s absurd to have them try to recreate the abilities of other fusions. It gives us decent setpieces (and Aivi and Surasshu give us glorious recreations of the music that accompanies Opal, Sugilite, and Alexandrite) but the whole thing feels forced. There isn’t a moment where it isn’t obvious that these scenes aren’t going anywhere, so instead of progressing the plot it’s as if we’re just stalling for the eventual reveal that Smoky’s specialty is humor.

It’s a shame, because the episode starts strong: Steven and Amethyst are adorable rehearsing their reveal, and the presentation itself is amplified by Pearl going full mom mode and Garnet correctly answering that it was Peridot that beat Jasper. The older Gems aren’t quite patronizing, but there’s a sense of bemusement that translates well to Sardonyx’s more extreme attitude, in the same way Steven and Amethyst’s nerves translate to Smoky’s awkwardness. All the pieces are in place, but then the episode takes another eight minutes or so to continue hammering in the point that Sardonyx is a steamroller and Smoky doesn’t feel like they measure up.

None of this is to criticize Natasha Lyonne or Alexia Khadime, two guest stars who carry the bulk of Know Your Fusion by themselves. Lyonne seamlessly shifts from quippy to embarrassed now that Smoky is in a social situation that can’t be solved with yoyo, and Khadime fleshes out Sardonyx’s loud first impression with quiet sass and condescension becoming of such a diva. This is the longest amount of time we’ve spent with "guest fusions” (so not Garnet, who’s a lead, or Stevonnie, who I’d consider recurring), and it’s cool to see all four main Crystal Gems condensed into a duo.

It’s less obvious than Cry for Help, but this is the second Sardonyx episode that acts as a sort of sequel to Coach Steven. We get an aside about whether Nicki Minaj gets paid for archived audio (which is the only fourth wall joke I really loved here) and a Strong in the Real Way reference, but we also get a similar message: that fusion might be great, but it amplifies the bad as well as the good. Sugilite is awesome because she’s Garnet’s power and Amethyst’s vim, but the recklessness of both Gems doubles up as well. Sardonyx also has Garnet’s power, now with Pearl’s precision, but Garnet is a leader, Pearl is a control freak, and both can be insensitive when their minds are set, so Sardonyx is a big scene. And Smoky Quartz, whose existence sprung from Steven and Amethyst commiserating over their status as “the worst Gems,” is now shown to have their own issues with self-esteem. Relationships are important, but they don’t fix all your problems, especially if those problems are shared among all members of the relationship. It’s telling that the resolution comes only after everybody’s back to normal.

I feel that the conclusion takes too long to arrive, but when it does, it’s almost worth the wait: I think it’s clever as hell to wrap up a meta humor episode with a metaphysical action sequence, considering the existence of Sardonyx’s room hinges on an ephemeral being’s existence and every thing falls apart when this person stops being one person and is instead two people (but is actually three people, because one of them is also two people). This is the perfect episode to put this trippy scene, as we go from contemplating the nature of this show to the nature of its characters. It has a similar feel to Steven reaching the roof of the gauntlet construct in The Test, but trades the emotions for hi-jinks befitting the tone of Know Your Fusion.

And while the fourth wall jokes aren’t for me, it’s not the only comedy to be found here. Estelle’s extended shout of delight at Smoky’s arrival is amazing, and my unhealthy appetite for puns was sated by the abundance of wordplay. I don’t hate this episode, I’m just not the right audience. But don’t worry, I’m sure Sardonyx could make a better audience if that bums her out.

(There’s really not much to write about for this one, huh? Sorry for the self-commentary in a review about how I’m not into this episode’s self-commentary. We’ll be back to normal review length when we return to episodes I find more interesting, which is very soon.)

I’ve never been to this…how do you say…school?

I wonder if this episode was ever gonna be called Self Study? The actual title is in there, just smaller, but it makes you wonder. I also love that Peridot is by herself while the less fusion-phobic characters are grouped; I’m sure she’s grown past this phase by now, but again, everybody loves a callback.

We’re the one, we’re the ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR!

Episodes like this are why my “Enh” rating exists. But as a reminder, because this is the first episode that hasn’t at least made “Like ‘em” since Gem Drill, this is a personal list, not what I think the definitive ranking should be.

This Meditation Will SHIFT You into the 5th Dimension (WARNING NO GOING BACK) This POWERFUL Meditation will SHIFT You into the 5th Dimension INSTANTLY. Right now on the planet we are SHIFTING from a 3D level of consciousness to a 5D level of consciousness. Once you complete this mediation THERES NO GOING BACK. ➡To experience THE SHIFT Free Webinar Click Below... ➡http://bit.ly/2O3Qoqq ➡ For my Guided Meditation MP3 on raising your vibrational set-point Click Below… ➡ http://bit.ly/2WW8Sgm ➡For my 7 Day Law of Attraction Morning routine Course Click below ➡ http://bit.ly/2ESuSPq ➡Click here for the Law of Attraction Accelerator Program (limited discount) ➡ http://bit.ly/2oPX10s #lawofattraction #spirituality #awakening This video contains the most powerful meditation you can do for shifting to a fifth dimensional state of consciousness right now on the planet. We are moving from a 3D level of consciousness to a 5D level of consciousness and this meditation will help you make the shift. Welcome back to another video. My name is Aaron and I help people expand their consciousness. Now on this video, it contains the meditation that you can listen to that will help you be in a fifth dimensional state of consciousness. I believe this video can change your life simply by listening to it and by doing this meditation. Now, just before you get into the meditation, I wanted to explain a little bit about why to do this meditation and also what it is. So on the planet right now, we are moving from a level of consciousness of duality, of positionality, of being in the autopilot mind of really emphasizing time, linear space, causality, and a lot of times you'll see that in three d level of consciousness, it's reactive to the environment. It's the news, it's the media. Everything in our society that has been controlled has kept us in a certain state of consciousness that has kept us from getting into who we really are. Now a fifth dimensional state of consciousness is that of connection. Feeling love between you and other people with the awareness that those other people are connected to you. It's a level of consciousness of you being in your passion, you being in the authentic expression of who you are and really of you bringing in five d energy. These you are a multidimensional being. Whether you remember this or not, and being in the five d state of consciousness means you are bringing through the energy of more of who you are. This we forget who we are, we identify with our ego and because we identify with our ego, we stay trapped in the three d reality. You are so much more than your ego and you're so much more than you can even imagine and when you start to tap into the fifth dimensional states of consciousness, you will also feel higher vibrational emotions. You'll find that when you go out into the world you just feel more connected to other people. You feel more joy, peace, love these becoming natural state of who you are and right now on the planet there is a shifting that is going on. We are moving from a three d state level of consciousness into a five d level of consciousness. And you came here for this, whether you aware of it or not. Now the work of Dolores cannon for example, talks a lot about this five and three d earth split that's happening right now. How we, there's these two overlaid realities and as time goes on they're going to begin to spread. It's going to be harder and harder to jump back and forth because these energies become more refined. Bashar has said the same thing before, but Shara has talked about it and said that there are metaphorical train tracks and it was happening as as time goes on, they're beginning to separate. So the idea is to get on the train tracks that you prefer to be on because you want to be on the most optimal timeline. The law of one, the raw materials, some of the most, uh, profound channeled recordings of all time as talked about the harvest. The harvest is this dimensional shift. We are going from what is called third density to fourth density. Now this is dimension. They are in a way they have some similarities, but what you can know is that we are moving to a fourth density state, which is also a fifth dimensional state of consciousness. Maybe I'll make a separate video on this explaining the difference. Let me know if you want to below however, the meditation that you're about to listen to, it's going to help you to wire in this five d level of consciousness. You're going to feel five d energy unlike anything you felt before and you're going to wire this in so that this point going forward...
