The Babylon Podcast ·

2012/11/09

Tim relates an article from io9's Charlie Jane Anders article, Please explain Babylon 5 to us!, and the offer is still out to Charlie if she wants to join us some day for a roundtable Q&A, where we'd do our best to answer her questions, and to keep those responses to under 5 minutes each. And then, the Feedbackapalooza! Source

In quick succession, the Babylon 5 universe lost two of its stars at the end of September, Michael O'Hare and Turhan Bey. We take a moment to remember them, and their all too brief moments here with us and on Babylon 5. Source

2012/10/12

Discussion: Oh, the humanity! Even with Warner Bros being inconsistent with licensing terms, pulling licenses before items were completed or in some cases, had even gotten off the drawing boards, there's still a LOT of stuff out there for a dedicated Babylon 5 fan to search for and immerse themselves in.

The Babylon Podcast ·

Deep Geeking: Legions of Fire, The Centauri Prime trilogy written by Peter David, is the topic for this episode, and the crew on hand really digs in.

Babylon Podcast #271: The Shadow Within

The Babylon Podcast ·

2012/08/17

Deep Geeking: The Shadow Within is Book #7 in the original series of novels, and the other of the two from that series that have been acknowledged as canon. Talk about this book delves deeply into Anna's story, and into the character and motivations of Morden, of the Psi Corps mission to eliminate a threat to the telepaths, and how these events mesh into the main Babylon 5 storyline as a whole.

Babylon Podcast #270: To Dream in the City of Sorrows

The Babylon Podcast ·

2012/08/10

Deep Geeking: To Dream in the City of Sorrows is Book #9 in the original series of novels, and one of the two from that series that have been acknowledged as canon. Talk about the book ranges from the cover art, the story arcs for Sinclair, Marcus, Catherine and Neroon, the accuracy of the character "voices", the nagging feeling that this book's pacing was too fast, and very likely could have been a much better book if it had been allowed to be longer, and more.

Babylon Podcast #269: Chatting about Babylon 5...

The Babylon Podcast ·

2012/08/04

Deep Geeking: Discussions begin with the Babylon 5 novels... the books, the books, the books! Where to begin with the commentary and the criticism? Much of the dissatisfaction that we feel with these books likely comes from a combination of the main characters authentic voices being slightly off, plus the impression that the events of the books didn't matter, that they fell into the trap of hitting the "reset" button after the end of the "episode", which is one of the things that we loved about

Who knew that "Fasten, Zip" was really a metaphor for the paradox of time travel? Source
