Episode 15: Widow‘s Peaks vs. Eyebrows (The Space Museum)

This episode, we discuss Season 2’s The Space Museum, in all its tonal inconsistency. Along the way, Reilly is the one who brings up the music for a change, Julie gets mad at Reilly for stealing her words, Anthony reads too much into the story by drawing out themes of apartheid, and Don notes that after encountering Daleks, giant insects, and a multitude of other monsters, this is the episode that seems to make Ian lose it. The entire team find themselves amazed at how much of a great time the Doctor is having through this story (and this season in general).
