| 6/21/26 | Radio Free Skaro #1073 - Cancel Culture | If you thought a complete vacuum of Doctor Who news would stop the Three Who Rule from prognostication based on the vapours and some recent UK media podcast analysis about the BBC tendering process, boy howdy you would be wrong! Thrill to our educated guesses as to where we go from here in a fractured media landscape! Puzzle over the tender process! Draw no real conclusions!

| 6/14/26 | Radio Free Skaro #1072 - This Song May Be Over | It's (not) the end, but the moment has been prepared for! Well, not as such but a press release from the BBC confirms what we long suspected: there will not be a Christmas special nor were plans for one ever seriously pursued. Sad news to be sure, but we've cobbled together industry and wider fan reaction along with our own lengthy takes tinged with what we'd like to think is both optimism and realism. More importantly, we have former Doctor Who Magazine editor Tom Spilsbury to give us his rather more informed take on the whole situation. Brave Heart, Tegan, after all somewhere the tea is getting cold.

| 6/7/26 | Radio Free Skaro #1071 - Minimal Editing | The rumours and nonsense continue to bubble up from the internet swamps this week with claims of the Christmas Special shot in a minimal style, a fake news release to irritate us all, and actual footage of RTD saying there will be a BBC press release in a week or two. The Three Who Rule dig deep and are quite skeptical of all this torpor (other than RTD's almost certainly correct claim) as well the usual Big Finish and Dalek 63-88 updates and Part the Second of our Classic Series Commentary for Spearhead from Space!

| 5/31/26 | Radio Free Skaro #1070 - Do They Know It's Christmas? | Jingle bells are probably silent this Christmas as, if RTD's hinting in the UK media has led the Three Who Rule to conclude, after Mr. Davies stating he won't be filming anything this year, so…whither Doctor Who Christmas Special?
