Doctor DC Podcast

Issue #500 - “#SweetRelease”

Tue, 13 May 2025 17:11:55 +0000

This episode was scheduled for release before... everything. If you're seeing this, then... it worked... Though I can’t say how, or why, or who’s really responsible. We recorded this as our 500th episode. I won’t explain what you’re about to hear. Not here.
Let the episode speak for itself.
Let it be canon. Let it be chaos. Let it be... Doctor DC. Ciao ciao. —Producer Richard

Issue #481 - “The 12 Episodes of DocMas VIII: Part 6"

Wed, 07 May 2025 20:26:17 +0000

The countdown is nearly over. And something is wrong. Another lost episode has clawed its way out of the Speed Force, this one barely holding together, like it’s been caught between timelines for too long. Glitches are more frequent. Questions are answered twice. Segments echo and collapse into each other. Producer Richard appears and disappears mid-sentence. Time has no meaning. We don’t know how this episode came back. We’re not sure we came back. One thing is clear: the podcast is breaking. And someone—some thing—is pushing it toward collapse. This is the final lost episode before we hit 500. If that even happens.

And if it does… you probably shouldn’t listen alone.

Issue #334 - "Stretchable Sleuth"

Thu, 01 May 2025 05:38:10 +0000

The podcast is in flux. As the Speed Force continues to wreak havoc on the podcast, the chrono-audio instabilities in the timeline are shaking loose hosts and summoning others. Not a true guest, with proper guest credit, but a completely different host entirely. Another lost episode shakes loose from the void as Producer Richard vanishes entirely. Is he dead? Is he lazy? It's impossible to tell. But one thing is certain...the April to May to 500 is straining the very structure of the show. Can we even make it to 500? And if we do...at what cost?

Issue #90 - “The 12 Episodes of DocMas II: Part 4"

Wed, 23 Apr 2025 15:16:27 +0000

The Speed Force is getting weirder. Chrono-audio instability is increasing, and with it, the timeline of the podcast continues to unravel. Another lost episode from the same past DocMas™ has re-emerged, fully formed but with some... irregularities. Distortions. Echoes. Time travel awareness, and references to the past and the future. We don't know why the Speed Force is doing this, but someone—or something—is clearly orchestrating these recoveries. The delay of episode 500 is no longer a glitch. It's a strategy. The past continues to bleed into the present.

Issue #89 - “The 12 Episodes of DocMas II: Part 3"

Wed, 16 Apr 2025 15:20:36 +0000

As we approach the 500th episode, an unstable surge in chrono-audio energy has begun to affect the timeline of the podcast—classic Speed Force nonsense. According to leading experts (Cosmic DC), the Speed Force has become self-aware and is now deliberately opening micro-temporal rifts to delay the release of episode 500. Why? Unknown. Possibly out of fear. Possibly out of pettiness. Possibly because Producer Richard once called it “a narrative crutch to explain his failure.” Whatever the cause, as we begin careening toward 500, these long-lost episodes are now being flung back into our timeline—out of order, lightly distorted, and absolutely canon. Consider this one of them... Whatever this is, and why it is doing this... it’s afraid of what happens if we hit 500…

Issue #47 - "Fate or Free Will"

Wed, 07 Mar 2018 06:16:11 +0000

In this week's issue we try to tackle whether or not the DC Universe is ruled by fate or by free will - the Doctor sifts through our listeners' evidence to figure it out once and for all! First we must take on the big bad news of the week. All this and more...Brother! Sponsored by Great Lakes Grooming Co. Intro by Aaron Barry SHOW NOTES (courtesy of Josh Gill) News and Notes

The Doctor’s Pulls (14:30) Questions

How do you reconcile a question when an A-List character (Hal Jordan) has served on both sides of the answer? (24:55)
Is Mark Millar’s Superman story a good example of destiny? (38:17)
I was leaning towards no free will because of Earth 33, but then I remember an issue where our imaginations are products of other Earth’s. (46:13)
Wouldn’t the Book of Oa make a case for pre-destination? (52:38)
Free will. Because of the nature of free will versus fate. (56:36)
If there are characters named Dr. Fate and Dr. Destiny, doesn’t it prove that those things exist? (1:03:58)

Intro by Aaron Barry Prescribed Reading from Issue #44: Young Romance vol. 1 #1 – Created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, this was the first ever romance comic book, and launched the entire genre. Heart Throbs vol. 1 #41 – One of the earliest DC romance comics to feature the Comics Code Authority seal on the cover. Young Love vol. 1 #113 – This giant-sized issue features the remarkably condescending “Mark…on the man’s side” advice column.

Superman’s Girl Friend, Lois Lane vol. 1 – Early stories in this Lois Lane solo series were centred on her romantic interest in Superman, often with her competing for his affections with Lana Lang.
