In today's episode folks, I am happily joined by Adam, Oliver and Heather as we sit down at 1am in the morning to discuss the amazing movie Pacific Rim.
We try our best to discuss this but sadly go off topic onto Roger from American Dad at one point.
Apologises for the background noise, Oliver and Heather keep a lot of pet mice so that sound your hearing is a few of them running in hamster wheels. Yeah .. Not going to record a review at 1am round there place again I'm afraid.

Stardub - Episode 62: Grand Moff! Ta-kid!
We're back after a wee delay (I mean we took longer than expected, no bladder control issues in this podcast), and so is Paul McGann! That one seems to a bit more popular on the internet than we are, for some reason. Steven Moffat penned the exclusive minisode - The Night of the Doctor which featured the return of Paul McGann as the Eighth Doctor. Now this is the one nugget we wanted for the 50th Anniversary, so any wrongs Steven Moffat has committed, unintelligible arc plots, which fall down under examination, less episodes than we should have, the ever revolving door of producers (we miss you Beth Willis) are now forgiven. So we blether about that for a while, before turning to an equally important part of Doctor Who.
No not Doctor Who Adventures, but we get to that later I speak of course of The Deadly Assassin - starring Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor. Reknowned for redefining Gallifrey, Time Lords and for getting Philip Hinchliffe the boot thanks to Mary Whitehouse. This is a shame for it should be familiar for a greater reason, the single greatest Time Lord who wasn't The Doctor - Castellan Spandrell as played by George Pravda.
Doctor Who Adventures reaches the milestone issue number 333 and Andu (after a few ciders picked it up) and we talk about it and also the charming Mr Men and Little Miss Magazine, both publications put out by the same publisher aimed at younger readers. Which one is better, no no they don't need to fight. Just read the magazines or better yet let our hosts tell you. (Yes, there is swearing involved, and also some unfortunate choices of words).
SHOW NOTES
Astrodog - the wonderful comic by Paul Harrison-Davies that Andu was raving about.

Back to the Eighties - Episode 168
This week we discuss fear - specifically your fear of horror movies or certain scenes from said movies from when you were ickle. Come on, we all know you used to sneak a peak at the horror movies on video or TV - and this is where you finally admit it, and that's the reason you're scared of sharks, alien furballs or angry Jewish ghosts.
We also welcome a special guest on for the second half - but I'm not telling you who that is, suffice to say things get very silly from that point onwards.

Transformers: Infiltration AUDITIONS!
Kicking off a series of radioplays based on IDW's run of Transformers comics. The plan is to cover the whole run, with Furman's stories as full movie-length, then moving onto episodic serials. The lines will be EXACTLY as printed on the original comic book, with a linking narration describing events where there are no dialogue. The reason behind that is I want the story to be kept intact, with the audio to serve as a form of look-and-read. There are people out in the fandom who couldn't pick up a comic book due to disabilities. It's those fans who are missing out on what I consider the best in current TF fiction. Also: how many times have YOU acted out scenes from an issue of More Than Meets the Eye? I know I have! We are starting with Infiltration, and will continue until the whole of IDW's run is complete. Infiltration - Maximum Dinobots will be movielength, then All Hail Megatron onwards will be episodic.
So, let us begin...
HUMANS (These are our main characters in Infiltration / Escalation / Devastation.
HUNTER O'NION (pronounced Oh-Neye-On) Wanderer, conspiracy theorist. I'm looking for a vocal range around the early 20s.
Line 1: (tired, jaded)… let it go. This… is too big, even for us. I.. I’ve seen things today I can barely comprehend, and I for one need a very long moment here.
Line 2: (inquisitive) So… what’s Siege Mode? And.. what does it mean to us? To the planet Earth?
Line 3: (All heck is breaking loose): We can’t stay here! If he’s what I think he is, he’ll come back, finish the job. We have to run!
VERITY CARLO –Looking for roughly late teen vocal range. Sassy, attitude, headstrong but in the inside, very, very vulnerable. Verity has the lion share of dialogue in Infiltration, so be prepared for a huge undertaking if you get the part.
Line 1: (To Hunter, angry, as a plane low-flies just above the van they’re in) You idiot! You reckless, shortsighted uber-geek! You’ve driven us right into some kind of military testing range! Back up.. get us out of here NOW! You hear me?
Line 2: (In full sass mode) Hey. Hey! When you boys are done making your little fraternity pledges.. big sis is right over here!
Line 3: (Hyperventilating, panicking ) Can’t- can’t breathe in here. Let me out! Let me – (door opens) ouuut! (breathes I – I did a bad thing, I know, but.. I can’t DEAL with this, okay.. I just can’t!
JIMMY PINK – 17 years old, looking for youthful, charismatic type. Sorta guy who thinks he’s got the moves and knows the street.
Line 1: Well, well, Verity Carlo, we meet at last!
Line 2: Hey, just think of me as your personal grease monkey.
Line 3: I’m with Hunter. I’m actually glad we’ve been sidelined. We… could have died back there. Look, Verity… It’s okay to be scared.
For the Transformers themselves, I’m doing something a little different.
It’s simple: Surprise me.
Send me a demo of you doing a series of voices, from any source you can get ahold of (It can be an old G1 script, a comic book, or anything from the Transformers Multiverse.You can even make something up yourself and act it out. For the most part, we’re gonna be with these characters for the Long Haul (I’m so punny!), and I’m looking for performances that’s gonna stick in consciousness’s of the listeners. No pressure.
Oh, and another favour: in your demo reels, include a performance using your natural voice. Sometimes your own voice is the best voice for a role, you don’t have to do impressions to impress people.
With that being said, In Infiltration, we need to fill the following roles:
AUTOBOTS
Ratchet
Prowl
Ironhide
Sunstreaker
Bumblebee
Jazz
Wheeljack
DECEPTICONS
Runabout
Runamok
Starscream
Thundercracker
Blitzwing
Skywarp
Astrotrain
Megatron
So, There you have it. Just act your socks off and send your files (in wav or mp3 form, and MUST have good quality!) to timeywimeylimey@hotmail.co.uk
We look forward to hearing from you!
