Additional Topics of Discussion
The questions were broached in Show #203, so now we officially pose it to our fans and listeners:
What topic or theme from Babylon 5, something that goes beyond being an episode-specific event, do you think should be or needs to be discussed here?
Babylon Podcast #203: Religion in Babylon 5
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.
Thank You, Mr. Morden
As mentioned, here’s the gift Starstuff got for us at the recent FedCon in Bonn, Germany, where Ed Wasser was the Master of Ceremonies.
Babylon Podcast #202: River of Souls (Movie)
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
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.
