Welcome to Show #36!

Jeffrey is in Telluride this week, looking for snow to film, and regaling Tim and Summer with tales of the beautiful skyscapes and the free beer.

Carrie Dobro
Next, we talk with Carrie Dobro, best known for her role of Dureena Nafeel on Crusade, but she also portrayed a medic in the third season episode “Exogenesis” alongside Jeffrey and The Snackman.

Carrie tells us stories about sitting in the makeup chair for hours, her different experiences with mud and tight costumes, and with extensive prosthetics in “Hypernauts”, and the fun of working with her Crusade co-stars, and the physical nature of Dureena’s character. Watch out when she’s playing with the blades.

We also learn about her role as producer of Pickets, a highly-regarded film that had made it’s way around the film festival circuit, and the challenges of filming on a schedule when your outdoor sets have been victimized by weather. And bugs. And poison ivy. Unfortunately, we can’t see the film playing anywhere or on DVD anywhere, but we’ll keep an ear out and let you know if it becomes available.

If you want to listen to us live as we record episodes, tune in at 9pm EDT/6pm PDT. You can find all of the necessary info here, including instructions on how to join the IRC chatroom for live interactive feedback from the studio.

Listener Feedback: Tim reads an email about the Vorlons in the “Babylon Squared” time loop, an email of thanks from Matthew for doing the podcast and helping keep the B5 fandom passions alive. Jeffrey’s really fascinated by the shiny gondolas going up and down the river.

A giant supersized feedback show will be coming your way next week!

Your feedback does matter, and is welcome! You can call, or email us and tell us what you think… and likely hear it played or read on the show. Please try to keep the voicemail comments as brief as possible.

    Great show. Carrie is a terrific person — and a wonderful talent. She had one of the best developed characters in CRUSADE and it would have been wonderful to see more of her and Galen, especially if he finally would agree to teach her some of the secrets of being a TechnoMage.
    One scene she loved was one in her quarters with Peter. Her furniture was a bit smaller and Peter had a hard time sitting down — especially with the extremely tight leather pants that were part of his Galen costume.
    Take care.
    Sandy

    Hey Mike… the show file should be there. I just did a test play of it using the embedded player here in the article post.

    Sometimes LibSyn has a senior moment and files aren’t accessible for a short while, but that doesn’t usually last very long.

    Try it again and let me know what happens?
