À propos de cet audio

The Twelfth Doctor once said Hate is always foolish, and love is always wise.Always Foolish is a positive Doctor Who podcast, exploring the good side of 'bad' episodes. Or episodes people think are bad.


We'll be tackling negative discourse head-on by discussing where these stories fall down, how they could be improved, and what's actually pretty darn great about them, thank you very much. And along the way there'll be news, impressions, and many, many tangents.
