About us
We're a group of Doctor Who fans who get together in person and virtually to socialize, watch episodes, or listen to audio dramas. Although we're based in Chicago, we welcome anyone interested in Doctor Who.
(Note to medical professionals - we're not about medical doctors. Yes, we've had people show up asking if they can network with other doctors. We're still waiting to our first Time Lord because that would be awesome.)
We welcome anyone interested in Doctor Who. Whether you started with PBS "back in the day" or just learned about the show, you're welcome to join us. We meet both virtually and in person in the Chicago area.
If you want to know our monthly plans, please subscribe to our monthly email newsletter. (Don't worry - we won't sell your data). You can also find us on Facebook and Bluesky, and we encourage members to become sponsors on Patreon to keep our meets free (and low-cost), accessible, and inclusive.

VIRTUAL Patreon-Sponsored Timey Wimey Watch Club - THE CLAWS OF AXOS
·OnlineOnlineOur August Timey-Wimey watch club was suggested by one of our Patreon members, and we love it.
It’s Doctor Who at its most trippy. It’s a great piece of early 1970s Who, with the Third Doctor, the Roger Delgado Master, and the UNIT team against a unique alien menace.
It’s also one of the earliest Who episodes to be shown in Chicago...but that’s a story for our screening.
Please join us via Zoom for a vintage Who story!
