    Here’s some seasonal music for our Centauri friends:

    “Silent Narn…”

    Two things:

    1) I’d buy a smart pop B5 book

    2) Imagine Londo’s consternation over the lyrics to “Jingle Bells”

    “Silent Narn” could be brilliant. You should run with it, Kurt!

    Greetings fellow B-5 fans
    The Keefer starfury pilot character was a product of TNT making a suggestion to JMS accorrding to JMS on the DVD commentary. JMS puts in the “top gun like pilot” but ends up killing him off in Vorlon fashion.

    The Cortez is exploring the rim, sector 800 i believe and that is moving towards Zahudum’s galactic address. It only makes sense that the shadows might be shadowing a ship that is exploring near their neighborhood. …Okay its not the greatest B5 episode but its good for laying the foundation for the Egyptian prayer which is echoed later. The relationship between Sheridan and Maynard is great for anyone that has ever served in the military and speaks to the stories of misadventure, the —- stories instead of just the war/combat stories and you can feel the bond between the characters. The ribbing Maynard gives Sheridan is realistic and the best way to think of it is of two old salty Navy ship captains and the difference between having a shore command verses being out to sea. My favorite line is “the pull of the big empty”.

    how is this for a sign off “Do you have anything worth living for? ….the babylon5podcast….”

    Keith, I can hear it now

    “What is it with theeeseeee Humans and their blasted bells and why are they have to be jingling Vir, explain it to me!”

  6. I had always gotten the impression that the shadow ship had lost track of the starfury and just couldn’t sense it with all the interference from hyperspace. The starfury in turn was able to see the shadow ship visually because it is so much larger.

    Speaking of music, I have a CD by the Be Fives that I purchased at a B5 convention years ago. It’s a collection of songs sung by some of the cast members (Mira Furlan, Claudia Christian, Andreas Katsulas, Peter Jurasic, and Bill Mumy), and at least one or two are written for the album. I hadn’t heard any songs off of it on the podcast as of yet and wasn’t sure if that might be something you are interested in. Normally I don’t share music over the internet, but as one podcaster to another and considering the nature of your podcast, I thought I would make the offer.

    Keep up the great work,
    Michael
