50: General Things Going Wrong (Timelash)

This episode: recorded in 2023 (???), edited in May 2025. Between recording and posting this episode, both Rosie and Aym have got married (Rosie beat Aym to this despite getting engaged a full year later). Rosie also can't remember what happens in this episode despite editing it themself, so hopefully it's good!

This episode: The novelisation is worse than the serial, which may surprise some Timelash reactionaries. Quote of the episode: "I would like to record at least twice a month."

This episode Rosie is joined by Dr Nemo Martin to discuss a serial in which - and you might not know this - the TARDIS gets tiny. Quote of the week: “You’re telling me a prawn lurgied this sandwich?”

In this triumphant return (recorded..................... at an undisclosed time), your beloved hosts compete to determine which Classic Who companion is the lesbianest. And as the title implies, Kamelion does not go quietly. Thank you for listening to this very late episode of Reversing Polarity!

This episode we watch in horror as dozens of plastic footballs rain down upon the Essex countryside. Also the Doctor strips! Quote of the week: “The Brigadier would be bisexual if he knew that was a thing.” Rosie recommends the film Rituals (1977). Aym is snoozy. It’s an instant classic.

Join us this festive season as we select the perfect gifts for the Time Lord who has everything (everywhere, all at once).

This episode: Aym does not delight in the uncanny valley, Rosie tells a tangentially interesting anecdote, and Four and Leela interrupt a space orgy. This episode is also accidentally in memoriam of Chris Boucher.

Content warning for discussion of anti-semitism. This episode: we recorded in a heatwave so relish that memory, the hero for words returns, Aym relates a deeply stressful tale of subterranean transportation, Rosie was on the verge of heat exhaustion and coped with a rare blue streak and we do not relish the Oh Sixties of it all.

This episode: dive behind the sofa with us as we discuss Quatermass, John Carpenter, 2000s horror subgenres and might just get around to mentioning our favourite show once or twice.

Content warning for discussion of sexual assault. This episode: We welcome a friend to discuss oil genres (again), Rosie has a bone to pick with Will, there is a ranking of unusual breakfast items, the Monk is prepared for a Reaper invasion and Dennis Spooner will not stop bashing companions over the head.  Thank  you for listening to this very forty-fifth episode of Reversing Polarity!
