Episode 72: Steve Manfred

from Something Who Hosted by Richard Smith

After our chat last time about the story The Doctor's Wife, we were contacted by long time fan and sometime Something Who listener Steve Manfred, who had something of a hand in the genesis of the story. Steve discusses his friendship with the author Neil Gaiman, how that led to him having a consultancy role on Neil Gaiman's two Doctor Who stories, and he corrects some of more egregious mistakes, as well as answering some of the questions we had posed. Thanks to Steve for sharing his stories and for the generous donation of his time. Please like or share our podcast with people who will enjoy it, so we can build our listener base high for happiness.

And also what makes a great workplace, how to turn things round when we're not enjoying our work and, in the end, how we can all make our work better. For all episodes, go to https://ifhurtnotwork.podbean.com/ and https://ifhurtnot.work. Our cover art was designed for us by Bea Garrido. She's a really talented artist, who you can find on Twitter using @BeaGarrido00, where, among other artworks, you can get hold of the prints of some remarkable paintings of characters from Doctor Who.
