    2024/11/05
    The latest Marvel Cinematic Universe series is out - Agatha All Along. We first met Agatha (aka Agnes) in WandaVision. She’s back and seeks to regain her powers through the Witches Road, a legend going back centuries. How was Agatha the only witch to survive the road? Why does she think this is her only answer? Who does she bring into her new coven? What is the story between Rio and Agatha? Is Lilia wispy or kooky? Can Alice resolve her mommy issues? Will Jen ever be unbound? How did Mrs. Hart get swept up in this adventure? Why is the mysterious teenager so important and who put the sigil on him? Is the road and its trials really able to grant everyone’s wishes? Will we see Billy and Agatha again? Did this series meet our expectations? Did the answer surprise us or could we see the hints from beyond the veil? What is next for the MCU? Are we asking way too many questions?!?!?!? Listen in as Juan Sanmiguel and Vicky Jakubowski wind down the witches' road for you.

  • Episode 380 - Happy Who Day
    2024/08/09
    #DWPD2024 #DoctorWhoPodcastDay

    It’s Doctor Who Podcast Day, so we here in the MarkWHO42 Universe are offering our own thoughts… Doctor Who and Star Trek crossovers. Most recently, thanks to Intergalactic Friendship Day, there is the intermixing of two mobile games, Doctor Who: Lost in Time and Star Trek: Lower Decks - The Badgey Directive from East Side Games. In it, The 10th Doctor and River Song work with Lieutenant Brad Boimler and Ensign Beckett Mariner (from Lower Decks) to stop the timey-wimey issues trying to destroy reality. In 2012, IDW Comics released Star Trek: The Next Generation/Doctor Who: Assimilation², a mini-series bringing together crews from the USS Enterprise with various Doctors. Then there was the fan fiction favorite, The Doctor and the Enterprise, first printed in 1982 by Jean Airey. These adventures in space and time have entertained the fans for years and always leave us wanting more. Listen as Mark Baumgarten, Juan Sanmiguel, and Vicky Jakubowski speculate on what we would like to see in a Who-Trek crossover.

Our last topic is Best Dramatic Presentation, Short Form comprising 6 episodes from 4 television shows including this podcast’s inspiration, Doctor Who.

  • Episode 378 - Ruby Who?
    2024/06/25
    With Season One (14/40) of Doctor Who coming to a close, MarkWHO42 looks back on the two-part finale and the year as a whole. Who is this Doctor - does he give us something different from his previous incarnations? Has this season been building towards something or are there too many red herrings? Is Ruby Sunday crucial to this story? How does she compare to Rose Tyler, another young and naïve companion? Are we enjoying the many mysteries we have faced this season? Is Ruby’s adoption tale relevant? Her biological parents?

    Do we have more questions? Like, how amazing is Kate Stewart? Is she a product of The Doctor’s influence on her dad, which, in turn, influenced her leadership style at UNIT?

    Then, there is the big baddie - Sutekh… a blast from the past. How did he stay on top of the TARDIS without notice? What is his end game? How can The Doctor save the universe with just a spoon? Paradoxes? Plot holes? Pish-posh! Can The Doctor and Ruby turn all that around? Has Sutekh turned this Doctor’s compassion into hate? Is The Doctor now a monster? Could death minus death really equal life? What will we see next in Season Two? Will Ruby resume her adventures in the TARDIS? And just who the heck is Mrs. Flood?

    Questions, questions, questions… but do we have answers? Listen to our thoughts and guesses this week as Mark Baumgarten, Vicky Jakubowski, Juan Sanmiguel, Zion Quiros, and special guest Jarrod Cooper, break it all down for you!

  • Episode 377 - And The Doctor Cried…
    2024/06/10
    We are now deep into the newest season of Doctor Who and we continue down a path of questions and twists. We start this episode of MarkWHO42, with a tribute to William Russell by Mark Baumgarten and Juan Sanmiguel. He portrayed one of the original companions, Ian Chesterton, a schoolteacher, with The First Doctor. We follow with the next 3 episodes: 73 Yards, Dot & Bubble, and Rogue. In 73 Yards, themes of the supernatural and mysteries continue. Where did The Doctor go? What words does the woman say to the other characters to make them run? Is she a ghost? What is her purpose? Are we in a timeline paradox or an alternate timeline? In Dot & Bubble, we have an obvious commentary on social media and influencers. More than that, racism and xenophobia are at the forefront. Does this represent our present or possible future? Is Ricky September a part of the problem? He is an educated influencer who does not use his power to effect change until it is too late. Is Ruby naïve or overly optimistic? The Doctor’s tears in this episode are emotional and raw. What will happen to the survivors when they attempt to live outside the city? In the last episode, Rogue, we have the talented Jonathon Groff sparring with The Doctor. A formidable match, one who may recognize at least one of his many faces. What does this mean for the future? Or is it the past? The Doctor has a double blow in this episode; first, he thinks he has lost Ruby and then he loses Rogue. What is the emotional toll on The Doctor? Again, The Doctor has tears and anger, but he moves forward, as he knows he must. In these three episodes, as with earlier ones of the season, we have seen many references to events of the past 60 years in the Doctor Who universe. Is there a reason beyond an easter egg? Do the homages have deeper meanings? Listen to Mark Baumgarten, Vicky Jakubowski, and Zion Quiros trip the light fantastic with The Doctor and Ruby in anticipation of the 2-part season finale.

  • Episode 376 - There’s Always a MarkWHO42 at the End
    2024/05/20
    Doctor Who is back! And whether you watch it on BBC One or Disney+, or call it Season 1, Series 14, or Season 40, you need to watch it! Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson have great chemistry and Russell T Davies is presenting a very “magical” storyline. On this episode of MarkWHO42's Universe, we review the first 3 episodes of the new season as well as the last Christmas special, The Church on Ruby Road, because everything is connected (well, maybe it’s because we didn’t review it back in December, but don’t tell anyone). Join Mark Baumgarten, Vicky Jakubowski, and Juan Sanmiguel as they face the snow and more, while trying to overcome the urge to sing and dance!
