It's hot in Las Vegas, too, and we're sad because George Johnsen's work on The Star Trek Experience in Vegas will be gone when the exhibit shuts down on September 1. Go see it, and take one last trip to Quark's Bar for one final Warp Core Breach. Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer delve into Deep Geeking on "Into the Fire" the pivotal episode in the confrontation between the younger races and the Shadows and Vorlons. Tim thinks it's a flawed episode, and so the discussion begins... Feedback: Ruben in NJ wonders if the alien entity that invaded Sheridan in "Knives" was a remnant of a Vorlon that had been spying on the existing time-space for a Kosh in a different time, but just caught in a time rift (um, no). Jeffrey wants to hear more messages from new listeners... feel free to call in! Go check out Deep Geeking when you get a chance, and if you want to contribute a geeking essay, get ahold of Summer.

Michael, Summer and Jeffrey recap the FarPoint Fool Party for the group, and Tim really wishes he could have visted the heat and enjoyed the fun. Summer still doesn't understand the appeal and attraction of this game called Washers. Interview: Amy Guskin joins us to talk about her efforts to organize a group of B5 fans to acquire an original G'Kar mask and donate it to the Museum of the Moving Image in New York. And you thought the Browncoats were good at organizing rescue efforts... Discussion: Today, in sector 14, Tim had no emails or voicemails pulled aside, so there's nothing to discuss. Pay no attention to the live stream from the party... there's nothing happening here. And because Jeffrey mentioned wanting 5 more years of doing the series, all of a sudden, Summer's imagining he and Bruce starring in an updated rendition of Butch and Sundance... Questions from the chat room: Mike Stark wants to know what Jeffrey liked least about working on the show; Neroon wants to know what the preferred beverage would be if Zima could be replaced (because the beer would go skunky!); what B5 episode without commentary would you have liked to have heard commentary on (we should make a list).

Tim, Summer and Jeffrey welcome Brad on the line, and Kris in studio. The puns are out of control. Interview: We are pleased this week to talk with The great Luke Ski, creator of the new FuMP hit, "No Sleep 'til Babylon". Luke tells us about his being a B5 fan, of creating this song and many many others. Luke also tells us about the fundraising drive to help out Tom Smith. We try to put Luke to the test and come up with potential songs on the spot... will he get back to us later with some gems? We'll have to wait and see. Oh yeah... Ding. Voicemail: Gary from Jacksonville needs clarification on whether the caves where Sheridan met Lorien were real, or metaphorical, being a construct where Lorien "caught" him; Gary needs clarification on when the 20-year deadline was set on the remainder of Sheridan's life; Arkle gives us his thoughts on why B5 isn't as high in the public consciousness as Buffy and other shows (and battles his cat in the process), and thinks the teaser ads on PTEN may have been the problem.

Tim and Summer are again flying without Jeffrey, but Tim reads some news from JMS posted to the news group about his experience at Cannes, and hinting that more news would be coming soon on a new project. Summer really wants to know more about this "Ninja Assassin" movie JMS has written... it's an imperative! Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer jump into Deep Geeking on "The Long Night". Tim does not like the title of this episode because for him, it doesn't reflect or evoke anything significant from the episode for him. What do you think? Sheridan finds a way to make a stand against the Shadows and the Vorlons at the same time, and convinces the League to stand together with him; and Londo's and G'Kar's plans come to fruition in an unexpected way. There's plenty of emotional impact to go around, and despite Tim's dislike of the episode title, he agrees that it's one of the better all-around episodes. Chit-Chat: Jeffrey joins us for the episode closing, and he gives us an update on the Space Station flyby viewing from Los Angeles. Kurt in St George weighs in on Tim's comments on Shadows vs The Empire... he takes Tim to task, while also risking invoking the wrath of TD-0013, and also has a different view on Shadows vs Borg. Kurt... you need to detox from the Rock Star overdose!! Also, Tim has wrangled an interview with The great Luke Ski, so stay tuned for that, coming up soon!

We have extra feedback to get through, so you know what that means? Feedbackapalooza, part 2!! Anna is still here, live in studio, and since we're on a feedback roll, we just kept it going... Email: Al recounts a B5 group viewing that included a local TV critic who viewed "Severed Dreams" with them; Mitch O wants to know what favorite part of the show we'd like to have seen expanded upon, and what parts would we have wanted to see less of; George Brickner tells us about his B5 action figure collection, which leads to a discussion of some of the goodies Tim and Summer each have; Bill W recounts B5 airing schedules back in the day; Kazzy wants to know what other awesome episodes to listen to; Paul in Vegas wants to know when to view "In The Beginning", chronologically speaking; Joe D requests the addition of reviews of the Script Books... all we need is a volunteer who has all 15 volumes and some extra time. Bill laments the poor portrayal of Nightwatch members in "Ceremonies of Light and Darkness"; Molly adds a theory about the failure (or non-activation) of the Z'ha'dum planetary defense systems; Brendan wants to know how young someone can successfully be introduced to Babylon 5, and we suggest he start listening to How to Grow Your Geek, hosted by Susie the Southern Geek. Jeffrey joins us for a message from Jason, who wants to know if there were any more music offerings from Andreas besides the collaboration album featuring B5 cast members.

Sorry this is late to the feed... technical issues ran rampant. Tim, Summer, Jeffrey and Michael are joined by Anna, live in studio (she's in town for a conference), and she's just in time to experience Feedbackapalooza! But first, Summer gets to ask Jeffrey about the production side of detonating Kosh's helmet in "Falling Towards Apotheosis", and we learn about the dangers of using too much primacord on a television set. Voicemail: Eli from Portland contrasts Vir's and Londo's ability to apologize; Gary wonders about the discrepancies between Vorlons creating human telepaths and the assumption that they were created as cannon fodder in the war; Gary again, wanting to know about the state of homelessness on Earth and buying into the government's statement that no one was homeless; Bethany from OK is angry that none of the BSG people realize that their story's roots come from trails blazed by B5 and other old scifi shows; Gary disagrees with Tim's comment that the Shadows didn't have a Sheridan contingency plan; John from Jersey got his Script Book Volume 15; Gary relays JMS' comments on the monster in "Grey 17 is Missing"; Starfury spotted at the Air Space Museum; Gary again, thanking Brad's editing skills in pulling the finished show together; John from Jersey comments on the B5 episode scheduling during first run (one more time, it was different in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh); Gary wonders why it seems that Morden is still hanging out on the station after the Shadows start moving openly; Josh from Bangor weighs in on the Shadows picking Garibaldi's Starfury out of the pack that was milling around.

Tim and Summer are eager for tonight's episode, but Jeffrey is nowhere to be found. By a twist of fate, our in-studio guest, James Paul (Scicomer), is not only a Babylon 5 fan, he's also a researcher involved with the newest Mars lander, and he brought Script Book Volume 15 and a bottle of Corralejo with him! And then, there was much Mars geeking. Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer, with James, discuss the pivotal events in Falling Towards Apotheosis. Taking on the Vorlons is a bold move, even for someone who's returned from the dead. Discussion: James tells us how he discovered Babylon 5, how he was on set to watch the filming of Londo's arthropod battle scene in "Sic Transit Vir", his meeting of June Lockhart and of The Great Maker. In addition to letting Summer stroke and paw his pretty copy of Volume 15, James has also made the Library of Congress aware of the script books to they can acquire copies for the archive. He also wants to figure out how to get a "definitive" collection of science fiction works in the archive as well, so if anyone has any suggestions, take a peek at the online catalog to see if any of your favorite classics or groundbreaking works aren't in there yet.

Jeffrey secretly traverses the back hallways of VH-1 in search of quiet place to chat with us, and Tim has questions about the B5 action figures, seeing as how he came across a rare Ivanova variant and didn't know it until we told him. But he opened it, alas. Jeffrey also thinks that all of the female action figures on that run all had the exact same faces, so we're sure someone will investigate. Summer never collected the action figures, and instead focused on the trading cards. (kudos to Brad for the funny sound effects) Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer discuss "The Summoning". There are many levels summoning going on in this episode, so the title is more apropos than initially apparent. Discussion: Tim asks Jeffrey about the long tracking shot at the opening of this episode, and about how the sets were built to allow for longer shots to be made, and whether or not the crew had fun wrapping Jerry Doyle in a massive amounts of clingwrap. Could it have been the Snackman supplying the cling wrap? Summer minions: wiki, joomla. Second Life Info: FarPoint Media's castle is at http://slurl.com/secondlife/beraudes/203/151/49.

Jeffrey also lets us know what show he's working on now: Celebrity Rehab on VH-1. So whenever he's not able to join us on Wednesdays, know that he's working on Season 2 of this series, and it really is something that's aiming to help. Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer contemplate the mysteries and metaphors in "Whatever Happened to Mr. Garibaldi?" For a long time... this is a good one. Listener Feedback: Tim passes on a question from George Brickner: "What does Summer need her minions to do?" First, Summer needs a vacation and some rest, then she'll need help with wiki setup, and Joomla configuration. If it matters, Summer would love to see a script book or three solely about "Crusade".

Jeffrey's happy, preparing to celebrate Kosho de Mayo, and giddy about the Dodgers winning big. Because Jeff's heading out to Hawaii, talk wandered over to his appearance on the show in a Hawaiian shirt and overalls. Community Project: Find the Hawaiian shirts worn on the show. We need to make a list. JMS will be attending Cannes Film Festival, to screen Changeling, and is all sorts of busy writing other feature film scripts. Could JMS be writing the screenplay for Lensman? Summer is intrigued about the prospect of a movie about Rising Stars. Listener Feedback: Feedbackapalooza! It's a word that's sticking now. Mick comments on the baseball talk in both Babylon 5 and Star Trek: in B5, baseball is still alive, and in Star Trek the sport is long dead, but in DS9 baseball is back and strong. How'd that happen? Mick also points out other similarities between B5 and DS9. Gary wants to know what screen credits Jeffrey has where he can be seen sans encounter suit, and asks again about the Mayport story. Should there be a warning label for the George Johnsen interview? We can't help it if you laugh out loud and distract your co-workers. One vote submitted for a SciFi AllStars baseball team... and a question on whether Marcus could play baseball extrapolated from his skill with a Minbari fighting pike. Bethany from OK comments on "And The Rock Cried Out..." and on the one B5 episode to show someone new to the series. Eli thinks we missed a point in talking about "Z'ha'dum", the hypocrisy/irony of Justin's statements to Sheridan. Scott from the Gigcast proudly announces that he's rented Season 1 Disc 1 and is about to dive into the series for the first time. Theory: Zima is the modern replacement to the never-endingly regifted fruitcake. That's the real reason why Zima exists in the 24th century... it kept getting passed on. Edmund adds some info from the Technomage trilogy to explain what happened during the White Star assault on Z'ha'dum (Galen did it). This leads to a discussion about what was going on on Z'ha'dum, if there was sleeping, or if it was a trap, or something else. Non-sequitur: Pixar, Disney, wha? Emails: Kurt from St George drops by the studio! Warlord adds commentary from JMS about the sacrifice of the White Star, taken from the back of one of the cards in the second series of trading cards. Aristotle wonders about how to direct new listeners to special podcast episodes first. Emily wonders about matching up Romo Lampkin vs Mr Morden. Jeffrey S wonders why human telepaths need to be on a line of sight when the Minbari telepaths could interfere with the Shadow ships from safely in the depths of their ships. Gene from Greenville wonders what we'd want from what might be your last care package from home. Bill points out what he thinks is the worst plot hole in "Grey 17 is Missing".

Interview: This week, George Johnsen, Babylon 5 co-producer (and apparently one of Jeffrey's cohorts in mischief), at last joins us! Jeffrey had been trying for a while to get George on the show, but George is a busy busy guy. He's worked on a lot of the films and shows we love, and he loves the scifi! We talk to George about the show, including some of the questions sent in by listeners, and the anecdotes and production details are both fascinating and fall-down funny. Did you know George was also an original Cylon? Summer didn't, and that just warms her heart. This is an interview you have to hear again and again, and you won't care that it runs the full hour. Your feedback does matter, and is welcome! You can call us at 206-338-2259, or email us and tell us what you think... and likely hear it played or read on the show.

It's baseball season again, and Jeffrey has already started in on the Dodgers geeking. The conversation really does take a science fiction turn... B5 loves baseball, and Star Trek does not. What's up with that? Deep Geeking: "Z minus 7 Days". After the silliness dies down, Tim and Summer discuss "Shadow Dancing", the episode that culminates in Sheridan's and Delenn's goal to get all of the League Worlds to work together in mutual self-defense against the Shadows. The B-story deals with Franklin dealing with the consequences of his actions and his choices, by literally talking things over with himself. And Jeffrey adds his own perceptions on why the cast (and crew?) were starting to look shaggy and scruffy towards the end of Season 3. Feedback: Tim reads a comment from Katie on the website, wondering where Jeffrey's pants got to in the picture on the website. Jeffrey reveals that budget concerns led to people not getting hair cuts, and needing to share the pants allotment. Is that TMI, or what? Jeffrey also regales us with an anecdote about a guessing game involving Polaroids and boobs. Michael is really trying to insert boobs into every FarPoint Media show... and Summer really doesn't know if she can make it stop! Your feedback does matter, and is welcome!

Tim and Summer travel to the Vorlon Homeworld to record this week's show! That's right... there was no live feed last week because Jeffrey's studio isn't set up to feed out to the streaming servers... and the chat room was really antsy about missing their fix. We're going to have to try to fix that, aren't we? Deep Geeking: This week, Tim and Summer discuss "And the Rock Cried Out, No Hiding Place", and the intrigues undertaken by Londo regarding G'Kar and Lord Refa, a boost in morale from messages from the Resistance on Earth relayed by several visiting religious dignitaries, and Sheridan and Delenn discovered the method behind the madness that the Shadow attacks that have been plaguing the sector for the past few weeks. Jeffrey adds some background on William Forward's portrayal of Lord Refa, and the good-natured banter between Mel Winkler and Louis Turenne. Luckily, there was no carrying on cranky this week! Listener Feedback: Mitch O sent an email saying that Jerry Doyle made a unannounced appearance at Megacon in Orlando 2 weekends ago, and said that Michael O'Hare was gravely ill. Tim couldn't find any supporting info online, but Jeff's going to try to find out for sure. Lowell wonders if B5 will show up on The WB's new online web programming, but B5 was technically pre-WB Network, so it's unlikely, but we'd love to be happily surprised!

Tim and Summer get all excited about this week's show, but once again Jeffrey can't join us. We're really starting to miss the Vorlon, especially his insight on how occassionally recurring characters are handled in terms of scheduling and possible double-bookings. Babylon 5 is now on Joost. Go watch! Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer geek on "Grey 17 is Missing", and the consensus is that half the episode is amazing, in terms of story, future implications, and charged emotional situations, and the other half is... well, I think even after 10 years we're still trying to figure that out. Listener Feedback: Gene from Greenville wonders if the Minbari Civil War might have gone longer if JMS had known sooner that the 5th season was secure; Jeremy in Denver has listened to the first 100 Babylon Podcast episodes over the past two months in order to catch up, and comments on seeing aspects of B5 Season 1 from a different perspective.

With the Vorlon away, the geeks will play. Deep Geeking: Edmund joins Tim and Summer for episode geeking this week, covering "Walkabout", a bridge episode that packs a lot of punch in some areas and that seems to fall off pace in others (in Summer's opinion, anyway). We see Dr Franklin, hanging around in Down-Below, searching for something, but not quite sure yet. What he finds for a time could be a reflection of his own situation, or something else entirely. Then we meet the replacement Vorlon ambassador, and Lyta returns to the station, to resume her duties with the new Vorlon, desperate to find out what happened to Kosh, and volunteers for a field trip on the White Star.
