Earth Station Who: A Doctor Who Podcast

This week on Earth Station Who, the crew heads back to the Fifth Doctor era to review “The Awakening,” a Doctor Who story that proves nothing good ever comes from ancient legends, spooky English villages, or people saying, “It’s only a myth.” The Awakening mixes history, folklore, and alien mischief as fear itself becomes the ultimate weapon. We break down the story’s atmosphere, themes, and where it lands among Fifth Doctor adventures—plus whether Saxon curses are ever really a good idea. We’re also excited to welcome back original Earth Station Who co-host Dave West, who bravely takes a seat in the Whovian Geek Seat. Will his Doctor Who knowledge save him… or will he be sacrificed to the ancient evil? Expect thoughtful discussion, classic Who love, a few laughs, and plenty of timey-wimey fun as we revisit “The Awakening” on Earth Station Who—where legends never stay buried for long.

Join the Earth Station Who crew—along with special guest Ciarán Moffatt—as they dive into two powerful Big Finish Doctor Who audio adventures, “Snare” and “The Last Days of The Powell Estate.” In this episode, we explore the dynamic between the Ninth Doctor and Rose Tyler, the emotional depth of these stories, and how they expand the Doctor Who audio universe. We break down character arcs, storytelling strengths, behind-the-scenes insights, and how these adventures enrich the legacy of the Christopher Eccleston era. Whether you're a longtime Big Finish listener or a fan of Ninth Doctor stories, this discussion is packed with Time Lord-worthy analysis, humor, and deep-cut fandom knowledge.
