Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

This week Radio Free Skaro gets POLITICAL (not really) as we interview three-time mayor of Calgary and current Alberta NDP leader Naheed Nenshi as he relates his massive love for one Doctor Who! Join us as we wax nostalgic about KSPS, his fondness for a certain scarf-wearing Doctor, and his take on amongst other things the latest Doctor Who Xmas special! Plus a Gallifrey One update, stats and media analysis, praise of Tubi, classic Canadian TV chatter, and more!  Links: Support Radio Free Skaro on Patreon Gallifrey One Update, including 2026 and 2027 date changes RFS Gallifrey One Live Show Announcement Doctor Who finished 6th for Christmas Week with 5.911M viewers Classic Doctor Who removed from BritBox UK and ITVX Premium First weekly Dalek 1:2 scale kit is out now The Chimes of Midnight hardcover adaptation by Robert Shearman due Oct 9 Jubliee hardcover adaptation by Robert Shearman due Oct 9 Things Are Not Always What They Seem: The Writings and Politics of Malcolm Hulke by Michael Herbert due later in 2025 from Telos Publishing Barbara Clegg died Jan 7 Interview: Naheed Nenshi
