Babylon Podcast #205: Feedbackapalooza, Second Wind Jul 16, 2010

Show notes

In addition to discussing our varying shower singing talents, Tim, Summer and Bret ponder yet more reasons why that shower curtain was there. The Vorlon encounter suits might have been used as practice rooms for Top 40 pop bands. We also settle the dispute on which of us right about when it was mentioned in the show when more than just Sinclair had been examined and interrogated by the Grey Council, but that only opens up a whole different can o' worms that bears further scrutiny and over-evaluation in only the way we can do!

Babylon Podcast #204: Feedbackapalooza Jul 07, 2010

Show notes

Tim, Summer and Bret jump back in the saddle in the new-old studio! Tim also reads an announcement about the new Wonder Woman outfit and story that's the result of JMS taking over the reboot of the comic that he'll be writing. Feedbackapalooza: Summer gets lost in a temporal loop of host love and fan love and fan feedback love. Everything else is dust in the solar winds...

Babylon Podcast #203: Religion in Babylon 5 Jun 24, 2010

Show notes

Tim was inspired by our discussion on "River of Souls", which leads to tonight's topic. Tim, Summer and Gary discuss religion, faith and spirituality as portrayed in Babylon 5. From the premise and purpose of the Soul Hunters, to the clashes between science and faith, to the waning old faiths contrasted with the rise of new ones, there are no simple answers, which is why we keep debating the questions.

Babylon Podcast #202: River of Souls (Movie) Jun 11, 2010

Show notes

Summer wishes that we'd had more of a heads-up about Amazon's $100 sale on all 5 seasons of Babylon 5, so that we could encourage a buying frenzy and start an entirely new round of Deep Geeking on the series. Anything we can do to keep the podcast going. At a recent Orange County Screenwriters event, JMS stated that both he and WB are interested in doing a 20th anniversary story for 2013... so let the feeding frenzy begin.

Babylon Podcast #201: Interview with Leslie Erganian (Prop Designer) Jun 04, 2010

Show notes

Leslie Erganian, artist and prop designer for Season 1, joins us to talk about the scrounging and other creative solutions that went into creating many of the iconic props seen in Season 1. Leslie talks about the craft behind making such items as the Grey Council staff, the translator, Adira's star laces, the statue of the Li, the Centauri Goddess of Passion, and many more items, including the phenomenon of bilateral symmetry in the alien races, and the utensil challenges that not having it can cause at Craft Services.

Babylon Podcast #200: The Beefcake of Babylon 5 May 20, 2010

Show notes

Laura from the League of Non-Aligned Knitters and Sandy Bruckner from ISNNews.net join Summer in chatting about the male eye candy (or lack thereof) on Babylon 5. Tonight's definitely Ladies' Night, but we're still not sure if Bret was more interested in exploring his boundaries, or learning some new things about what women really want from a man.

Babylon Podcast #199: Feedbackapalooza V2 May 14, 2010

Show notes

Just about everyone was missing in action this episode, so it's lucky that we had Edmund from Greenville and Gary from Jacksonville to fill in, and yes, we are risking damage to the time-space continuum by having Gary both answer his own voicemails and call in a voicemail in response to his response to his own voicemail. The fabric of our universe may never be the same. And don't miss next week's special "Men of Babylon 5" episode!

Babylon Podcast #198: Feedbackapalooza V1 May 07, 2010

Show notes

Since we are an equal opportunity platform for B5 Geeking, we are planning an all-girls "Men of Babylon 5" (from here on out to be called the B5 Beefcake episode). Well, Bret may join in, too, because he's got an equal opportunity pleasure threshold. Listener Feedback: Tim, Summer, Jeffrey and Bret lend their expertise and their podcast-juice filled opinions to the many voicemails that have been waiting for us.

Babylon Podcast #197: Day of the Dead Smackdown Apr 30, 2010

Show notes

Tim, Summer and Bret and special guest Gary from Jacksonville weigh in from their respective corners for the "Day of the Dead" smackdown you've all been waiting for! We field questions from the voicemail bucket, and argue amongst ourselves so long that we made Mike squirm, yet in the end, we still didn't manage to do anything beyond continuing to agree to disagree. But the fact that Tim still thinks that "Day of the Dead" is worse than "Thirdspace" is borderline criminal.

Babylon Podcast #196: The Babes of Babylon 5 Apr 24, 2010

Show notes

Tim, Jeffrey, Michael and Bret discuss just about anything and everything about the women of Babylon 5 and the portrayal of sex and sexuality on the show. The only thing missing was a wall full of pinups for them to daydream over. Fear not, there will soon be a girls night out where we'll discuss sex a little bit more, and also the Babylon 5 beefcake selection!
