NEXT STOP EVERYWHERE 164: "A Christmas Carol" Is Up!

"Ah.  Yes.  Blimey.  Sorry.  Christmas Eve on a rooftop, saw a chimney, my whole brain just went 'What the hell'."
-- The Eleventh Doctor, Doctor Who: "A Christmas Carol"

Hello again, everyone!  My partner in time Jesse Jackson and I decided to give Doctor Who fans a 2019 Christmas Special as we discuss "A Christmas Carol", the 2010 Doctor Who Christmas Special, featuring Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor, Karen Gillan as Amy Pond, Arthur Darvill as Rory Williams, Michael Gambon as Kazran Sardick, and Katherine Jenkins as Abigail Pettigrew!

In this episode, Jesse and I discuss things like Jesse being War on Christmas Guy, "A Christmas Carol" being Jesse's first true Doctor Who Christmas Special, our original plan to record "A Christmas Carol" for Episode 129, actor Michael Gambon, the Eleventh Doctor's sense of childlike wonder, the Doctor rewriting Kazran Sardick's timeline, Kazran's changing memories, why the Doctor doesn't just use the TARDIS to materialize on board the crashing space cruise liner, the Doctor using the flying fish to gain young Kazran's confidence, the moment when old Kazran is about to strike his younger self, Amy and Rory's roleplay sex, the Doctor building multiple snowmen, wondering why the Doctor doesn't go into the future and bring back a cure for Abigail, the Eleventh Doctor and young Kazran wearing fezzes and Fourth Doctor scarves, the Eleventh Doctor being really clueless about women, the Eleventh Doctor getting engaged to Marilyn Monroe, our favorite quotes of the episode, my Reverse the Polarity segment, new feedback from Holly Mac, David K. Proctor and Hannah Skorapa, Next Stop Everywhere returning to a weekly schedule for Series 12, and more!
