Chris and Eddy talk about the period of Doctor Who where there was no Doctor Who, the Wilderness Years of 1989 to 2005. This is a different episode than what we usually do on Genreless.

Chris and Eddy take a break from usual proceedings to talk about Transformers the Movie (the 1986 one) with none other than MIKE FREAKIN' PONDSMITH... ahem... we mean, Mike Pondsmith, creator of the Cyberpunk franchise and massive Transformers collector and fan.
