"If you left a sonic screwdriver pen at my place last week, you might be a geek..."Episode 7 and my 4000th post! As usual, two things: 1) #GeekOut is the hashtag on Twitter for the silliness of following a radio show live, and 2) if you couldn't listen or understand the French interventions, here's the episode's playlist, with You-Tube links where available.
Intro tune: Doctor Who IX - Murray Gold
