NEXT STOP EVERYWHERE 252: "The Snowmen" Is Up!

 
"Multi-nucleate, crystalline organism with the ability to mimic and mirror what it finds. Looks like snow, isn't snow."
"You must leave here now."
"Shut up, I'm making deductions. It's very exciting."
-- The Eleventh Doctor and Dr. Walter Simeon,
Doctor Who: "The Snowmen"

Hello again, everyone! My partner in time Jesse Jackson and I are back with a new episode of Next Stop Everywhere: The Doctor Who Podcast!  This time, we're joined by special guest companions DJ Nik, Rachel Frend & Christine Peruski to discuss "The Snowmen", the 2012 Doctor Who Christmas Special, featuring Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor, Jenna Coleman as Clara Oswald, Richard E. Grant as Dr. Walter Simeon, and Sir Ian McKellen as the voice of the Great Intelligence!

In this episode, Jesse, Nik, Rachel, Christine, and I discuss things like my parents ending up in the hospital, getting the group together for a holiday episode, Xan Sprouse breaking a tooth, Christine's podcast joke, trying to get Rachel back to discuss a Colin Baker Big Finish audio, donating to the Christine BritBox fund, Richard E. Grant appearing twice as the Doctor but not on Doctor Who, Steven Moffat using Douglas Adams' rejected plot called "The Doctor Retires", the original concept for the new companion being a Victorian governess named Beryl, the date of birth on Victorian Clara's tombstone, various Sherlock Holmes connections to Doctor Who, Nik doing a Fifty Shades of Grey gig, Jesse being Lieutenant Grumpy, wondering why modern era companions are written out when the Doctor regenerates and there's a new showrunner, Matt Smith in The Crown, "The Snowmen" being Rachel's first live-watched episode of Doctor Who, Clara being too much like the Doctor, wanting a Paternoster Gang spinoff series, Strax being the exception to Nik's dislike of Sontarans, wondering why we don't see more of women kissing women on Doctor Who, the nod to the London Underground in "The Web of Fear", the Doctor being responsible for the origin of the Great Intelligence, our favorite quotes of the episode, my Reverse the Polarity segment, new feedback from Holly from Wisconsin, Rachel's recommendation of the Lethbridge-Stewart novel series, my dislike of "time loop" stories, and more!
