Lazy Doctor Who
Hosted by Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky
Steven Schapansky (Radio Free Skaro, The Memory Cheats) and Erika Ensign (Verity!, Total Party Kill) are married Doctor Who fans (who also co-produce a fiction podcast for Uncanny Magazine). This is a podcast where they watch every Doctor Who story ever made, from start to finish. Each episode is recorded live on a red couch.
No, they have no “schedule”. They’re lazy. Want proof? Check out this fab listener-created spreadsheet of episode releases.
