How to Get Ahead in Megalomania (Dismembering “The Brain of Morbius”)
Pull To Open - A podcast by Pete Pachal and Chris Taylor - Saturdays
Categories:
Time for the yarn on Karn that unravels the Doctor’s entire history — while cramming in more cranial puns than you can shake an oversized amygdala at. The Brain of Morbius is like a New Who embryo in a jar: a self-aware homage (to Frankenstein), a feminist fable (sort of) with a serious theme (immortality) that’s laced with laugh-out-loud lines, and bold changes that go beyond even the Timeless Child. Grab an elixir, don’t touch the wine, and let’s all stare at the magnificent headcanon. Give your own rating for The Brain of Morbius on Spotify!
