Good news, Lettuceheads! The Lettuce
Podcast is back from its hiatus and diving right in to Season 2 of
Doctor Who! Laura hosts with Charlotte in tow as they discuss David
Tennant's first round as the Doctor, the rise of the Cybermen, Rose's
significance to the Doctor, and all things Ood. Laura wonders if the
Doctor's quirky and silly tendencies are coping mechanisms for a
hidden sadness. Charlotte enjoys the inclusion of Sarah Jane Smith
and the tension she creates between the Doctor and Rose. Together the
hosts laugh over the Dalek-Cyberman insult trading, debate the
Doctor's actions with Madame de Pompadour, and list their favorite
episodes of the season. Does Rose get a happy ending with the most
ideal versions of her parents? Does the Doctor gaslight his
companions? And who is better at dying: Daleks or Cybermen? All this
and more is discussed on the back-and-better-than-ever Lettuce
Podcast!
To celebrate the return of the show,
Laura and Charlotte play two classic games in the Fun & Games
section: Alphabet Sentence and Kill, Marry, Pity Date. Can you create
an alpha-sequenced sentence about Doctor Who? Would you kill, marry,
or pity date an Ood? Play along during episode and tell us your
results in the comments!
Looking to sip on something while you
enjoy this episode or an episode of Doctor Who? Try Laura's homemade
“Blue Box” podtail. This take on a wine spritzer includes
Sauvignon Blanc, blue curacao or food coloring, and
blueberry/pomegranate carbonated water. Let's just hope your podtail
doesn't succumb to the same fate that Laura's did (you'll have to
listen to find out!).
