On episode 155 of The Oncoming Storm, things are a little bit weird around Oncoming Storm HQ. No, it has nothing to do with this week's story, the New Adventure Sanctuary, by David A McIntee. It has more to do with the fact that on the day of recording, our expected threesome for the night became a duo after Ashley's wife goes into labor two weeks early! It throws off *all* of the carefully laid plans the podcast had this week, but Josh and Rachel do their best to go it alone. They talk news, medieval France, and the best gosh durn Benny showcase since her debut. And what's this crazy talk about a hiatus? Find out, on the season finale of The Oncoming Storm! The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got a baby! Well, now we do; we didn't when this was recorded. But he had to come out eventually right?

G'Day Mates! Through another shrimp on the barbie, because the Doctor is heading to the Outback of Australia! ... <WHACK> Sorry, sorry. We've 'sacked' the normal description guy. We here at the Oncoming Storm will not tolerate such cliché openings! Yes, this week's story, Dreamtime by Simon A. Forward, does see the Doctor, Ace, and Hex arrive at a floating, Australian city in space. And yes, the story is filled with a ton of Australian accents. But it's about so much more than that! Like mysticism! The mysticism of the Australian Outback. And... bullroarers. Crikey. Forget it. Bring on the Koalas. The Oncoming Storm... oh oh! This time, we've got those alien bird lizard guys again! They're not Australian!

We here at The Oncoming Storm are big fans of the Sportsball! Indeed, there's nothing more that we like to do than sit back with out favorite cocktail, watch the players take to the pitch, throw around the basesball, and score lots of touchdowns! That's why we couldn't be more excited to talk about The Game, by Darin Henry. It's all about the Doctor getting involved in the sport of Naxy, the national sport of the world of Cray. I'm sure it will be a bracing time! There's also some sort of war and William Russell is involved somehow. So throw on your cleats, and let's get down to it! The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got the original story River Song was pilfered from. Again.

"Let's Do the Time Warp Again!" Er, well, I guess that applies to any episode since this is podcast about a show about time travel. But this episode is especially warpy! Episode 152 of The Oncoming Storm sees your hosts talking about The Highest Science by Gareth Roberts. Again. But this time it is a bit different. This time it's all about the audio adaptation from Jac Raynor. After 20 years, the Chelonians are finally brought to life! Join Josh, Rachel, and Jeff as they discuss how successful the move to audio is, the brilliance of Sylvester McCoy and Lisa Bowerman, and exactly how they prefer to digest their Who. The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got a brain with vocal cords! It talks! Kinda annoyingly actually.
