Welcome back to a brand new season of YEGS AND BACON!
On this week’s episode – is the comic book industry doomed? Yes! Or… no? Maybe. Danica and Brandon discuss what needs to change if comic shops want to see tomorrow, and they have the math to prove it.
All this, plus traffic and weather from Devin R. Bruce – and our amazing theme song by Apocalypse Kow
Show Notes:
Gooooood morning Edmonton! Grab your coffees or your general morning beverage of choice, because YEGS AND BACON is here!
On this week’s PREVIEW show, we give our statement of purpose, ad talk about the days ahead. You want some feminism and general mindfulness in your comics culture? Then you’ve come to the right place.
Yegs and Bacon’s theme music is by the incomparable Apocalypse Kow. You should give them money, because they are wonderful.
In which we discover that Neil Gaiman likes his TARDIS’ like he likes his women.
We’re continuing our season of companions with Marina Reid Hale (@mrimm) who gets us into a double dose of episodes this week – The Unicorn and the Wasp, and The Doctor’s Wife.
We learned a lot. Such as the fact that it’s a bad idea to get impregnated by a giant wasp alien. And that wasp people are people too. And that concrete faces can not give consent. It was… a lot. So.
Outro music is “I Am Not A Robot” by Marina and the Diamonds

In which we come into watching “Blink” with good intentions, and leave it lying in a ditch somehow.
Our Companions Season of the show continues with special guests Amber Chipman and Laury Plant, and we proceed to pull strings while we watch a modern classic. Marvel as Brandon can’t remember any names. Again. Be totally surprised when Moffat keeps a woman sad and waiting. There’s angels. There is dick pics, kinda. There are white girls named Sally. There’s… a lot. Get ready to hate us real bad, but please, remember that we love you.
Outro music is “All Star” covered by Tessa Violet & Dodie Clark

In which we kick off our first Companions Season of episodes by talking about one of our favourite episodes to discuss drunk.
Welcome back to Doctor Whooch! For this batch of episodes, we’re going to have a bunch of special guests, starting with our good friend Allen Gould! He arrives on the show to talk about a very sexy episode of Doctor Who where a couple of the characters bone down later. Spoilers!
Also discussed? Hobbits, Culkins, Tim Riggins in Space, Once Upon A Time and Aldis Hodge. And Doctor Who eventually, whatever. Specifically: how Donna really gets a raw deal in her season of the show.
In which we are sober AF, so we sound awkward AF.
On this very special episode, we’re featuring the main conversation from this week’s Gallifrey Public Radioepisode that we guested on. Hosts Keir, Jay and Haley were wonderful people to talk about the casting of the newest Doctor with, something we didn’t even know was happening when we first scheduled this crossover! Anyway, if you want to hear five awesome people gush about Jodie Whittaker for over an hour, WE HAVE YOUR BACK!
Also, if you enjoy this episode, you need to check out Gallifrey Public Radio, and just go back there every week. Tell them we sent you.
Oh, and also follow them on Twitter: @gallifreyradio.
Oh and also also, you can listen to when Danica guested on Keir’s other podcast here: In Defense Of – Between the Panels
oh and also also also we love you thanks byeee
In which we say good-bye for now, and good riddance reaaaaalllll soon.
On this week’s season finale of Doctor Whooch, Danica and Brandon are talking about the season finale of Series 10 of Doctor Who, “The Doctor Falls”. It’s like Wonderfalls, but way more depressing. Because at least stuff happened in that. Do you remember Wonderfalls? Anyways.
Listen to them talk about how elevators work, or how nothing was really accomplished by anyone. Also there were a lot of guns and two Masters and still, nothing. Oh, and the Doctor was a whiny baby, but like, what’s different about that?
Outro music is “Wedding Bell Blues” by The 5th Dimension.

In which we have no regrets. But also, no egrets. 🙁
Holy hell, is this season almost done? No? Oh FFS. Whelp whatever. On this episode, we’re talking about “World Enough and Time” which was boring until very suddenly it wasn’t. Marvel as Danica explains the show we’ve all been watching for over a decade! Swoon as Brandon yells about how Stephen Moffat is terrible at gender politics! Or actually, they both do that. A lot. That guy is NO GOOD.
Outro music is “Monster Hospital” by Metric

In which the monster of the week is all the rave. Trust us, it will make sense later.
This week, Danica and Brandon are proud to have Kat from Verity! on the show to discuss what happened on “The Eaters of the Light”. There’s a whole lot involving noodle rave monsters and Romans and the Scottish and sexuality and bullshit with Missy. It’s a bit bonkers, but a lot of fun, honestly.
Outro music is “All The Small Things” by Blink-182

Hold onto your butts, it’s a wine episode!
On this week’s show, Danica and Brandon bear witness to “The Empress of Mars” and gave Mark Gatiss the benefit of the doubt because they were drunk. Spoiler alert: they shouldn’t have. Hey. Do you think an episode featuring the colonial British might be pretty racist? Well, at least there’s treasures for them to steal. Also, penis metaphors.
Outro Music is “Underground” by The Sounds
