Get Off My World is taking a short break from our regular episodes to concentrate on our weekly Series 9 Minisodes! We’ll be back to our usual twice-a-month schedule on December 15th.

Also, if you live in the Twin Cities and like theatrical shenanigans, check out The Twin Cities Horror Festival! Your nerdy hosts are involved in two different shows (which, um, might explain why we’re a little behind on our recent minisodes).

It features a stellar cast of Twin Cities actors including our very own Joshua English Scrimshaw! It’s an eerie and intricate tale of time travel, psychics and other dimensional entities. If the Horror Fest were Season 26 of Doctor Who, this play would be Ghost Light.

7108356[1]And don’t forget Kelvin Hatle! He will be appearing in Big Spooky Radio Spookytime! Think Prairie Home Companion with zombies. ‘Nuff said.

Oh, and just to class up the joint, Pat reads his first ever Doctor Who inspired poem!*

As always, if you enjoy this episode, let us know! Email us, write a review on iTunes or like us on Facebook!

*Pat also makes several factual errors in this episode: 1) Nell Campbell (from the film Jubilee) plays Columbia in Rocky Horror, not Magenta (although Patricia Quinn, who does play Magenta, appears in the Seventh Doctor TV story Dragonfire, and the Big Finish audio Bang Bang-A Boom!). 2) Jubilee was Derek Jarman’s second feature film. 2b) It came out in 1977. 3) The second US Pinnacle Books novel was “The Doomsday Machine,” not “The Cave Monsters,” although they were both written by Malcolm Hulke. 4) The name of the composer is Tristram Cary, not Tristram Vary.

It’s likely Kelvin and Joshua also stated many untruths during this podcast but they’re too lazy to fact check themselves. Ignorance is bliss!
