This week we have something new for you. This is Episode 0 of our new podcast, Inevitable. Because, as we all know, we’re basically suckers for attention and so as soon as someone mentioned we should watch even more sci-fi everyone has to have known that this would be inevitable. Inevitable will be available onContinue reading →

And now… the time is near… Everything we’ve ever done, everything we’ve ever recorded, it all leads up to this. To this singular podcast episode, this 2 hour epic. We’ve compiled over a dozen of our fan submissions for our fantasy Blake’s 7 episode, and have now presented them all here, for the first time.Continue reading →

It’s like Trial of a Time Lord but better. It’s really hard to believe that we’re so cloes to the end. This is the latest thing I think we’ve ever listened to for Trust Your Doctor or Zenith, but not the latest thing we’ve covered (thanks Triple Play, check it out). Can you believe thatContinue reading →

He just wants to be loved. I think. Merry Christmas, we hope you’ll enjoy this rendition of “jingle bells, decomposing Blake smells, Avon took a bullet.” They’re all dead is what I’m saying, and frankly we had no idea when we started this podcast that Blake would fall on Christmas, which is really a ratherContinue reading →

As you can tell I forgot to find a good title this week. The end is nigh. And by nigh I mean, it’s nearly here. Next week, Blake, then two more episodes, then…? It’s over. On the bright side we’ve been forming a coalition of people to take over the job for us. That wayContinue reading →

Coming soon to a merchandise store near you! It’s a good thing we were joined by Sgt. Draino this week, so that we can decide which one of us to throw out of the airlock to make sure that this podcast makes it out of orbit. That’s right, we’re recording the final episode in spaceContinue reading →

What happens on Zerok stays on Zerok. This week we’re joined by someone totally and completely eclipsing us in knowledge of literally everything ever. Which is actually par for the course for this podcast, all of guests are more knowledgable than us anyway, why do you even listen to this podcast? For the guests IContinue reading →

We may have discovered a new Blake’s 7 related website name. Thankfully, when we record, we record as far as possible from any sand that could kill us. Just in case we keep the recording area completely air tight, which basically means we have to record the entire episode before we run out of oxygenContinue reading →

In the end it’s still just a quarry though. This podcast isn’t just a game, you know. I think everybody thinks it’s just a game, because we have so much fun, but this is serious business. This podcast has a serious following and serious work that goes into it. So don’t be deceived. It’s Games,Continue reading →

ROFLCOPTERLMAOBLAKES7 A lot of people want Zenith dead. We’re pretty popular, you know, so it would make sense for people to want us dead. Take out the competition so to speak. I’m not saying another podcast hired an assassin to kill us, I’m just saying another podcast hired an assassin to kill us. It’s Assassin,Continue reading →

You ever notice that all metal is flexible? No? Just me? This week we get a much much better episode of Blake’s 7 than last week. Which is honestly a huge relief. Was really expecting us to be in the dumps for the next five weeks. But good old Roger Parkes is here to saveContinue reading →

But do it anyway. Hold on to your butts, this is about to get weird. Everyone else seems to hate Animals. Then again, everyone else seems to love Orac. That’s not to say we loved Animals. No far from it. Just. Well just listen for yourself. It’s Animals, written by Allan Prior and aired onContinue reading →

It’s called a headband. Oops. This week we move away from a podcast over to our new venture! We’re proud to announce that we’re going to be starting our very own biker gang. The Decorative Vegetable Biker Gang will be staring operation in the next week in the downtown Antarctica. It’s Stardrive, written by JimContinue reading →

It’s even bleak visually, it’s all brown. One of the two of us is a dirty, dirty traitor who sold out the podcast. Can you guess which one of us two it is? It’s probably pretty obvious but you know, why not try and guess anyway? It’s Traitor, written by Robert Holmes and aired onContinue reading →

Blake’s 7 is an integral part of a healthy diet! This week we run through another Ben Steed story. Which means that we’re gonna deal with a lot of sexism and misogyny. And since he actually wrote two good stories before this that means someone somewhere said “maybe we should just let him do whateverContinue reading →

They’re not good people apparently but I’m a bit concerned actually. The final season of Blake’s 7 beings, and so too begins the final 13 episodes of Zenith. Bit of a sad thought that, but on the bright side we get joined yet again by Jon, of Making Blakes 7. What better way to startContinue reading →

Well, at least Kiyan doesn’t really care about spoilers anyway. We made it! Almost. We reached the original end of this show. But then, well, it was such a big success so they decided to do another season because I guess why not? Also, if the show is good, why not make more? Although thereContinue reading →

Rule 1. We only allow clones of Steven Pacey in our army. This week we time travel back to Ancient Rome, or we would, if this was Doctor Who. Instead we bring Ancient Rome into the future, because this is Blake’s 7 where everything is in the FUTUREEE. It’s Death-Watch, written by Chris Boucher andContinue reading →

Drax the Destroyer obviously, the Marvel one. Wow kind of weird how many computers we’re starting to get on this show isn’t it? Orac, Ultra, Moloch, Zen. That’s four already right there, two of which were introduced in the last two weeks. Weird. It’s Moloch, written by Ben Steed and aired on March 17, 1980.Continue reading →

Well it’s like, sort of gold looking right? This week we dive into a massive… brain? Well that’s just completely disgusting honestly. I mean good god, have you actually seen a brain? It’s horrifying. Legitimately horrifying. It’s Ultraworld, written by Trevor Hoyle and aired on March 10, 1980. Blake’s 7 © The BBC Any other referencesContinue reading →

Scientific fact that green eyes are cool. Argy is legitimately the first female guest we’ve had on every single podcast we’ve ever done. That is… quite an achievement, perhaps, but at the same time… I don’t know where this is going honestly. It’s Sarcophagus, written by Tanith Lee and aired on March 3, 1980. Blake’sContinue reading →

The only thing that could possibly improve my mood is watching Blake’s 7. We are quickly moving towards the end of this podcast. Can you believe it? Zenith will end at some point, it will actually be the first of our podcasts to end. Brilliant! Wait, no. Also, did you know, the title of thisContinue reading →

Basically every episode after aftermath is the after aftermath. I cut out a 40 second argument about the introduction this week, can you believe we actually argued about how to introduce the show this week? Ok it wasn’t really an argument, more of a humorous discussion. But anyway, it’s Children of Auron, written by RogerContinue reading →

Pretty much right about now I think. Have any of our listeners watched City at the Edge of Forever? I’m actually curious to know, I’m sure we have at least a few Star Trek fans in the audience, there has to be at least one. I’m sure of it. Come on. Just send us anContinue reading →

Yes, here is, the man, the myth, the legend. Making Blake’s 7. Here’s a fun fact for you all, Jon is the first person who has actually asked US to be on the podcast. Weird right? Usually we’re the one’s begging everyone else to come on the podcast, because really who wants to listen toContinue reading →

Next comic-con I’ll cosplay as Roj Blake, I think. This week we commit sacrilege! I mean, turns out gods are real, we totally just like, ragged all over them, and then they just came on down and struck us down so we regret to inform you that the podcast will no longer be continuing. We’reContinue reading →

Probably a dangerous combination. I think. This week we approach a dangerous natural object that honestly we have no business being anywhere even on the same planet with. It’s a massive, world ending volcano. Although to be fair I guess Yellowstone exists. It’s Volcano, written by Alan Prior and aired on January 19, 1980. Blake’sContinue reading →

In the name of Avon, Zen and Orac, amen. The halfway mark has been passed and quickly discarded. We’re now, so to speak, on the downslope that forms the slow gradual decline and death for most television programs. Hopefully that’s not so for Blake’s 7 but we’re here to find out. It’s Aftermath, written byContinue reading →

Distant cousin of trickster god Low Key. Chris Boucher is here to clean up Terry Nation’s mess. No really, Terry tried to write this two part finale, it was gonna be this big event and then he had to shamefully admit that “hey I can’t really do this.” And so Chris Boucher, the real people’sContinue reading →
