Anomaly Supplemental: Whovangelism (aka Doctor Who's Blink)

girlygeekz@gmail.com (Jen and Angela) — Sun, 18 Dec 2011 19:56:00 +0000

How do you get someone into "Doctor Who"? One theory is: have them watch the season 3 episode "Blink." In this Anomaly Supplemental episode, Kasey (our resident Whovian) and Sue (who'd never seen a single "Who" episode before in her life) put this theory to the test. And it's quite the wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey episode - just what you'd expect from "Doctor Who."

WARNING: Contains spoilers. May contain nuts.

Jen and Angela are joined by their good friend Simon Meddings, from their "brother podcast" Waffle On. "Meds", as he's known to his friends, is a horror film aficionado so Jen and Angela allowed him to lead the conversation about this British Rom-Com-Horror film. This is a fun conversation that includes skit at the start of the episode. Simon wrote the skit, Jen mixed it (as well as the rest of the episode) and Jen, Angela and Meds star in it. NOTE: It is not kid friendly. It's a bit too scary for tikes. This episode is labeled explicit for that reason. Conider using headphones for the best experinence.

Her web series Awkward Embraces follows Jessica's dating misadventures.
