The TARDIS has landed on the 6th moon of Jupiter, and what have we found... it's Matthew Kresel, or at least a very convincing copy of him. That explains why he hasn't been on the show for a while. Also, while we're here, let's indulge in an exciting one-off adventure with the Twelfth Doctor entitled "Death Among the Stars."
This is an audio adventure from 2017 and part of the BBC Audio Adventure series. It was written by (one of our favs) Steve Lyons and read to us by the one and only Nicola Bryant (Peri). Join us for a rollicking adventure featuring the Kennedy Space Center, a great single-serving companion, clones, monsters, and an appearance by the king of rock and roll.

New episode of the Video Junkyard Podcast, for those who are so inclined. 😀

This week we skim the bargain bin and find one we've never even heard of before. How does a film like this fly under our radar? It features two of our favorite actors (Nicolas Cage and Willem Dafoe) and was directed by critically acclaimed writer/director Paul Schrader (Taxi Driver, Raging Bull). That must mean this one is really a stinker, right? Well, we don't want to spoil the show, you'll have to tune in and find out what we thought of the 2016 crime thriller "Dog Eat Dog".
