James Somerton Ripped Off Our Video - Verily Podcasty - Ep 3
We finally get to talk about something we didn’t think we could ever publicly address. Thanks hbomberguy!
Notes [Edit]
Overview of both videos
Our video came out on 3 September 2021, his on 5 November 2021.
While we largely use different games as examples, with ours focused on bi characters and his on gay characters, both our video and Somerton's can be summarised as follows:

Patreon exclusive video! For a while we were very torn between doing a video on women in Doctor Who and focusing more on Steven Moffat's oeuvre. Eventually we decided to focus on women and the show and make an appendix video for patrons analysing some of Moffat's patterns and tricks! Enjoy!

All you need to know is that there is a time machine which looks like a small wooden box on the outside and is very big on the inside. There, you're an expert now! Enjoy! 😁

Georgia’s 2009 Eurovision entry “We Don’t Wanna Put In” was meant as a dig at Vladimir Putin after Russia had invaded Georgia the previous year. The song was rejected by the EBU for being political and Georgia dropped out of that year’s competition.
