Join us for a very special edition of A Podcast Of Impossible Things, as we celebrate the latest short story anthology from Big Finish – Short Trips: How The Doctor Changed My Life, featuring our very own Caleb Woodbridge!
We have lots of interviews, including Michael Coen, overall winner of the competition, the full text of which can be read here, along with contributions from many of the other writers. We also speak to editor Simon Guerrier about the unique way in which the anthology was created, as well as his own ascent from the slush pile to publication. Plus, Doctor Who writer Robert Shearman chats to us about his own new short story collection, Tiny Deaths.
And as if that wasn’t enough, we launch our very first competition, with three copies of How The Doctor Changed My Life up for grabs. All you need to do is answer the following question: Where was Caleb working when he got the idea for The Shopping Trolleys of Doom?, the answer to which is in the podcast! The closing date is 25th October, after which we’ll pick the three winners at random. To enter, email your answer to impossiblepodcast@gmail.com. The competition is now closed.
We’ve also made the local press! The South Wales Echo ran a story on How The Doctor Changed My Life, including a mention of the podcast, though it must be pointed out that contrary to the description given, it’s not just Caleb’s podcast!
This edition’s commentators: Caleb, James, Peter and Swithun

Join us for our first spin-off commentary, as we investigate the return of The Sarah Jane Adventures, starring Elizabeth Sladen as Sarah Jane Smith and Yasmin Paige as Maria Jackson. How does the show hold up against Doctor Who, and how can it find its place in the ever-changing children’s market? And just where is Arnold Swarzenegger when you need him?
