HPR4220: How Doctor Who Began
Hosted by Ahuka on 2024-10-04
This is a look at the very first serial of Doctor who, and how the cast was first put in place. It is in many ways an unlikely story for a show that has gone on for 60 years and counting. I find the early stories to be charming and worth a look, and many things from these early stories come back in later stories as well.

Hosted by hairylarry on 2024-10-01
Episode 2 - Dirt Simple Photo Gallery Dirt Simple Photo Gallery is the program that started me down the Plain Text Programs path.

It is now my preferred web page generator for all kinds of web pages, not just galleries. Like most of my programs I wrote it because I needed it. Vi...
