The ExtonMoss Experiment Episodes 10 and 11

'The ExtonMoss Experiment' Episodes 10 and 11

The question we now find we're asking most of people the day after we upload an Episode of 'RTA' is not "Did you listen to it?", it's more "Are you OK to do something for a future one?"...

Suffice to say, it's a pleasure to work with our lovely writers, and we're always very happy if people are up for making a return, either straight away or further down the line.

And before this all descends into an orgy of mutual appreciation, it's also partly driven by simple practical considerations. Once you find people that can do a successful article (and finding them in the first place is an art in itself!), common sense means you try and hang onto them to help fill the hungry schedule of having so many slots to fill each month.

With Episode 32 not a million minutes away, the serious business of checking who might be free to do what begins almost as soon as you press the Upload button for Episode 31. Actually, it really starts before that as there's a certain amount of plate-spinning required as people find they either have some spare time to do something, or would like to come back, but find the dreaded Real Life (rightfully) needs to be attended to first.

But we're pleased to report that stuff for Episodes 32 and 33 (yes, really, we tend to pencil in the slots for two episodes at a time these days) are starting to ping into our inbox, for which we are terribly grateful...

Meanwhile, our new voices on Episode 31, Simon and Ken, have been busy boys, releasing two episodes of 'The ExtonMoss Experiment' mere hours after their work on Episode 31 finally saw the light of day.

Episode 10 of 'The ExtonMoss Experiment' is their Radiation special - not a phrase you hear every day of the week. Although it starts off fairly light-heartedly with the first episode of 'Whoops Apocalypse', it soon enters into full-on Grimfest territory with 'Out Of The Unkonwn : Level 7', followed by 'The War Game' and 'Threads'.

Mindful of how this is not exactly a barrel of laughs, they've wisely paired this with the so-called Radiation Andidote of Episode 11, which feautures a cheerier blend of 'Doctor Who' items, ranging from the opening parts of 'Castrovalva' and 'The Ark In Space' to 'Dimensions In Time' and 'Search Out Science'.

Episode 10 of 'The ExtonMoss Experiment' can be heard here.

And Episode 11 can be heard here.

And that's definitely the order you should do them in!
