Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro
Radio Free Skaro is possibly the most popular, most prolific and charmingly irreverent (but never irrelevant) Doctor Who podcast around. Since August 2006, hosts Warren (in Vancouver, BC) and Steven (in Edmonton, AB) have provided listeners with their brand of amusing Doctor Who praise and punishment. A year later, Chris (also in Edmonton, AB) was added to the team, and The Three Who Rule were born.
Recommended by Doctor Who Magazine, Radio Free Skaro provides an entertaining and diverting listen for the diehard or casual Doctor Who fan. New episodes usually appear on Sundays, following a loose magazine format of the three hosts discussing the news and events of the past week in the worlds of Doctor Who, Torchwood, and the Sarah Jane Adventures. They have also recorded special commentary podcasts for classic series and new series episodes of Doctor Who along with interviews of some of the brightest of the Doctor Who luminaries. Radio Free Skaro is also the official podcast of Gallifrey One, the world’s largest and longest-running annual Doctor Who convention.

Radio Free Skaro #98 - The Curse of Pela-slog
The Three Who Rule were joined by a fourth, RFS friend Michael, who not

Radio Free Skaro #97 - Sir Reginald's Dirty Little Secret
Never let it be said that Radio Free Skaro digresses or makes up its own back story for the classic series episodes that we commentate on...because that's precisely what we do, especially in Day of t…

Radio Free Skaro #96 - Filer!!
Things took a turn for the psychedelic this week, as the Three Who Rule
recorded a commentary for "The Claws of Axos", a story best described

Radio Free Skaro #95 - Not the Mind Probe!
News was sparse this week, but all the better for us to leap into
commentary on "The Five Doctors," one of the most pleasurable bits of
fanwank to grace the British small screen, at least until "The …

Radio Free Skaro #94 - Madoc! I mean, Robot!
A titanic torrent of news was only the beginning of this mammoth
episode of Radio Free Skaro, which featured almost an hour's worth of
banter even before we got around to commentary on "Robot", Tom B…

Radio Free Skaro #93 - Mr. Sin's Lament the Second
Despite the madness of Comic-con and Warren's current geographical position in San Diego, Radio Free Skaro continues with the second part of our "Talons of Weng Chiang" commentary. Wit, abandon, and …

Radio Free Skaro #92 - Mr. Sin's Lament the First
The three jaunty fellows were pleased as punch to commentate on one of the high points of Tom Baker's career, "The Talons of Weng Chiang," a fantastic set of episodes by the late, great Robert Holmes…

Radio Free Skaro #91: Slack Orchid
The dark times begin as we enter a solid half year with no new Who, but

quality televisual spectacle with a new series of Class…

Radio Free Skaro #90 - Journey's Meh
After last week's mind-melting funfest, things could only go
downhill...and they did! The Three Who Rule were unsparing in their
criticism of a finale episode that had its moments but seriously
under…

Radio Free Skaro #89 - The Stolen Mirth
"The Stolen Earth," the penultimate episode of Series 4, was a
barnburning spectacular of fanwankian proportions, and the RFS crew did
their level best to keep their geeky selves in check before effu…

Radio Free Skaro #88 - Third (Guy) Left
Chris absconded to Las Vegas this week for liquor, gambling, and other licentious pursuits, so it was left to the other two pillars of RFS to hold the fort, which they barely managed. The subject at…

Radio Free Skaro #87 - Midnight Express
For once, the Three Who Rule were in total agreement that "Midnight," the psychological thriller/Donna-lite episode of this season's Doctor Who, was a fine bit of viewing. That left us with little el…

Radio Free Skaro #86 - Forest of the Dud?
Dissent in the ranks this week, as the Third Guy forsakes a life of
marital bliss with Who scribe Steven Moffat and rips “Forest of the
Dead” a new one. Steven and Warren, on the other hand, were cha…

Radio Free Skaro #85 - Triumph of the Library
Silence in the Library marks not only the return of Doctor Who to TV
screens after a week's absence but also easily the best episode of the
season thus far. The Three who Rule waxed lyrical on the ma…

Radio Free Skaro #84 - The Brain of Moffatius
With the villainy of Eurovision erasing Doctor Who from England's screens for the week, all we were left with was a corking trailer for the second half of Season Four and the wonderful news that Stev…

Radio Free Skaro #83 - The Unicorn and the Meh
Another week of lackluster Who, this time set in 1920's England, starring Agatha Christie...and resulting in a bit of inconsequential fluff that added up to an at best average viewing experience. The…

Radio Free Skaro #82 - The Doctor's Disaster
We never go into a new RFS wishing to slag the living hell out of the latest episode of what is, after all, our favorite program...but we were left with little choice after "The Doctor's Daughter," w…

Radio Free Skaro #81 - The Poison Podcast
Part two of the return of the Sontarans to the new series hits the critical eye of Steven, Warren, and Chris, and was found not quite up to snuff, though by no means a complete failure Through much b…

Radio Free Skaro #80 - Sontarans and Sarcasm
The Three Who Rule spent a mind-shattering 40-odd minutes conversing

beloved potato-headed enemies (unless you ask Chris, he tho…
