🎄✨ 2025 Christmas Wrap-Up! ✨🎄

As the year comes to an end, I’m taking a moment to look back on what an amazing 2025 it’s been for The Doctor Who Collectors Podcast.
Thank you for listening, supporting, and sharing the journey. 🎁💙
Merry Christmas, and here’s to an even bigger 2026! 🚀🌀

In Episode 96, I’m joined by collector and author Richard Lloyd for a wide-ranging conversation about life as a Doctor Who collector, how his passion for the series shaped his writing, and the stories behind some truly memorable pieces from his collection.

David J. Howe has a new memoir called "Who Me!".  I talk with him about his story and how Dr. Who and David J. Howe are one and the same. I also talk about Chicago Tardis and what is happening this coming weekend (Nov. 28-30, 2025).  Join me at the Westin in Lombard, IL.

When Virgin publishing purchased WH Allen, the hardcover books were losing money.  In June, 1988 it was decided to stop publishing cloth bound Dr. Who books. Joining me is Tony Whitt, host and producer of The Target Book Club Podcast.  Keep Collecting!

Doctor, Jon Pertwee, has been released on Vinyl and CD. Included on this collection is Jon Pertwee reading “The Curse of Peladon” and “Planet of the Daleks”. “Who is the Doctor?” single from 1972, and bonus audio of archive items. I present my review of this collection of my favorite Doctor!

After finding a 1981 Catalog from the "Time Lord, Inc" of Brooklyn, NY owned by Ed Novak, I now have a new list of classic hardcover (Wingate and WH Allen) books sold in the USA in 1981.  #doctorwho

Today we cover the 1986 WH Allen, Amereon, Aeonian, and Nelson Doubleday hardcovers in our continuing series about these hard-to-find books.  Joining me is Tony Whitt, the host of the Doctor Who Target Book Club Podcast. This and the most outrageous offer.

My latest acquisitions, including one of the most sought after hardcovers. This hardcover I have seen in worse condition going for over $600 or more. I can’t imagine what a mint copy would go for but I’m happy to have it in the collection which completes my 1981 hardcovers.

@orangegofish.bsky.social love you so much Jen!

That wraps up 2024! Merry Christmas everyone! I am also presenting “I am going to spend my Christmas with a Dalek” for your listening pleasure. See you in the new year! You can listen to this podcast here, Apple Podcasts, and Podbean! I am also on most other platforms.
