"Why does that man have your name? I'm lost enough here without you holding back on me.

"It's not my name, it's
his.
I took his. But I didn't realize he was...so hot."

"Captain Jack Harkness
"
Hello again, everyone! I'm back with a new episode of Next Stop Everywhere: The Doctor Who Podcast! This time, Torchwood Month continues as I'm joined by special guest companion Holly Mac from The Five-ish Fangirls Podcast and we discuss "Captain Jack Harkness", the twelfth episode from Torchwood Series One in 2007, featuring John Barrowman as Captain Jack Harkness, Naoko Mori as Toshiko Sato, Murray Melvin as Bilis Manger, and Matt Rippy as The Captain!
In this episode, Holly and I discuss things like Jesse Jackson not being able to join us, Holly's Top 3 Torchwood episodes, Tosh getting the spotlight, the first appearance of the "Vote Saxon" posters, the four Jack Harknesses active in the 1941 time period, Jack's real name being revealed by Big Finish Productions, Jack constantly keeping secrets from the other members of Torchwood, Torchwood Jack vs. Captain Jack, Torchwood Jack encouraging Captain Jack to kiss the girl crushing on him goodbye even though he's gay, the unrealistic scene of Captain Jack taking Torchwood Jack out on the dance floor in 1941, Torchwood Jack's reluctance to go back through the rift, Matt Rippy looking like Captain America, the welcome story pairing of Jack and Tosh, the awkward moment when Tosh realizes she's a woman of Japanese descent in 1941, Bilis Manger looking like Mr. Burns, Bilis Manger needing a collar with a bell on it, Polaroid cameras not existing in 1941, not getting Bilis Manger's motivation for trapping Jack and Tosh in 1941, Tosh finishing the formula by writing it in her own blood and leaving it in an airtight cannister, Owen annoying the living hell out of us, Owen calling out Ianto for his Cyberwoman girlfriend, Owen being consumed with opening the rift regardless of the danger just to reunite with Diane, wondering why Ianto didn't shoot Owen with a tranquilizer dart, Owen only searching Bilis' office for the missing piece of the rift manipulator, Torchwood Three being an HR department nightmare, our favorite quotes of the episode, my Reverse the Polarity segment, Holly's recommendations for Torchwood audios from Big Finish, new feedback from Dave Proctor, Xan and I talking The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast on Ghostwood, Holly returning to discuss "Something Borrowed", and more!
