Episode 111: “Kerblam!”

We celebrate Doctor Who's 55th birthday by discussing the show's big look at automation and corporate culture. Alasdair really loved this one, so much so he starts breaking out the "Robots Of Death" comparisons, which is high praise from a classic Who fan. Allison wasn't feeling this one as much, but she finds herself warming to "Kerblam!" over the course of the discussion. All that plus general discussion of how this episode handles robots and the future, how this feels like a low-key turning point for Jodie Whittaker as the Doctor, and how Alasdair's girlfriend has some points to make via text about some stuff he said during our "The Woman Who Fell To Earth" discussion!
