NEXT STOP EVERYWHERE 176: "The Impossible Astronaut" Is Up!

"I'm being extremely clever up here and there's no one to stand around looking impressed! What's the point in having you all?"
-- The Eleventh Doctor, Doctor Who: "The Impossible Astronaut"

Hello again, everyone!  In this extra-length episode, my partner in time Jesse Jackson and I are joined by special guest companion Christine Peruski to discuss "The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon", the first two episodes of Doctor Who Series Six from 2011, featuring Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor, Karen Gillan as Amy Pond, Arthur Darvill as Rory Williams, Alex Kingston as River Song, Mark Sheppard as Canton Everett Delaware III, and the first appearance of the Silence!

In this HUGE episode, Jesse, Christine and I discuss things like keeping our social distance through time, Next Stop Everywhere trying to take everyone's minds off the Coronavirus for a while, Jesse's abrupt disappearance from the podcast, Christine getting invaded by her dogs, Series Six being the peak of the Matt Smith era, wondering where the Silence get their suits, Mark Sheppard on Doom Patrol and Supernatural, Jesse's new mic being really sensitive, the prequel to "The Impossible Astronaut", the differences between the 900-year-old Doctor and the 1,100-year-old Doctor, the signs of Amy's quantum pregnancy and her Schrödinger's baby, Steven Moffat not resolving the "Impossible Astronaut" cliffhanger, wondering why the Doctor decided to hang out in a prison for three months and do nothing, the great chemistry between Matt Smith and Alex Kingston, Amy being the Alpha and Rory being the Beta in their relationship, the Doctor being confronted by Charles II while naked under Matilda's skirts, Jesse meeting Mark Sheppard at Dragon Con, why you can't just submit unsolicited scripts to companies and professional writers, the Silence being an innovative villain and the ultimate voyeurs, the Christopher Nolan film Memento, wondering why the Doctor's companions put hash marks on their face, me being a month old before the moon landing, our favorite quotes of the story, more of Christine vs. our rating system, new feedback from new listener Holly Mac and David K.
