Safety inspector: I found two major issues with your Death Star. For one thing, there are no railings.

Grand Moff Tarkin: We believe railings would detract from the austerity of our bottomless chasms.

Safety inspector: That brings us to my second issue.

Hello! I've guested on this podcast talking about one of my favourite albums of all time; The Good Life - Album of the Year.

This album is one of the biggest influences on my Non Canon project so a bit of new album chat* snuck its way in as well.

I resolve to try and use Bluesky more. Because why not. I used to like using The Old Microblogging place to ramble.

Anyway NEW EPISODES ARE COMING IN 2026! I'm have recordings booked. People interested in being guests. Gonna batch record as many eps I can before releasing more.

I really would like Earth - but seeing Kochanski as an option makes me think that'd be more likely to happen.
On today's episode looking at the The Promised Doc, the documentary for the #RedDwarf film, .
The Promised Land, Mark and Matt talked dangling threads left for Red Dwarf.

Earth
Kochanski

I am also looking forward to you hearing when Mark and I looted the U Streaming Service for extra Promised Land content.

They still haven't asked for them back.
Mark and Matt will be taking a loot at the deleted scenes in a special episode in a couple of week's time.
On today's episode looking at minute 79 of the #RedDwarf film, The Promised Land, Mark and Vinnk talked about the deleted scenes for the film.

They're available to watch here:

I appear to have been taken over by Balatro. I even have it open when I'm editing podcasts now. I begin to understand the whole "second screen" thing now.

Fascinating discussion about "other one" characters in this episode. Those characters meant to drive conflict - a role that Sheldon and Rimmer have in their respective shows.
On today's episode looking at minute 63 of the #RedDwarf film, The Promised Land, Matt, Mark and Kurt talked about how Rimmer is Red Dwarf's equivalent of Sheldon Cooper.

Do you think it's a fair comparison?
