Reverend Matt’s acclaimed series of comedy lectures returns to CONsole Room! Many of the monsters of Doctor Who are original – but many are also based on our world’s mythology. Learn about Who’s alien versions of mythological dragons and gorgons, horror-classic werewolves and vampires, unexplained-phenomena grey aliens and Nessies, and many more! Plus jokes! And PowerPoint!
Come see Reverend Matt talk to famed Doctor Who actress Neve McIntosh at CONsole Room – Minnesota’s greatest Doctor Who convention! Hear stories from her time playing fan-favorite character Madame Vastra, learn about her other projects, and see if Reverend Matt remembers that she’s not a real lizard woman and thus refrains from asking her about the fine details of Silurian culture and biology! It could go either way!
Monster Science comes to CONsole Room – Minnesota’s greatest Doctor Who convention!
“Lizards From the Dawn of Time (and Elsewhere)” is a complete history of the reptilian monsters of Doctor Who – from Silurians and dinosaurs and Ice Warriors to Leaf Dragons (which are cooler than they sound) to Chelonians (which are…not as cool as they sound), and everything in between! All in honor of Neve McIntosh’s visit. Plus, jokes! And PowerPoint!
On my third guest appearance on the extraordinary Doctor Who Podcast, “Get Off My World,” I finally get to talk about Silurians! I in fact get to do a full ten-minute Monster Science on them. Recorded live at Minneapolis’ Phoenix Theater, alongside such amazing local theater luminaries as Laura Zabel (encountering Doctor Who for the first time), Tim Uren and Eric Webster (doing, along with the other folks, a Doctor Who adventure in the style of old radio dramas), the Sevateem (with original Doctor Who songs!) and the exceptional series hosts, Joshua English Scrimshaw, Pat Harrigan, and Kelvin Hatle! It’s terrific and you should give it a listen right here!
Get Off My World! is a Twin Cities-based Doctor Who podcast hosted by Pat Harrigan, Kelvin Hatle and Joshua Scrimshaw. This live recording celebrates their third anniversary with a mix of nerdy comedy, eccentric opinions, live music and special guests. Their companions for the evening include local theater luminaries Matt Kessen, Tim Uren, and Laura Zabel, with musical guests Christian Erickson and Janey Winterbauer of The Sevateem.
