White Star Five podcast

[DaveNarn]

I love podcasts and subscribe to many and I'd subscribe to the JMSNews cast if we had one
But fear not... there's a new B5 cast by the veteran crew members over at Simply Syndicated - Whoo hoo!!!

Check-out their first episode; WS5_01 The Beginning

Hurrraaaaaays!!!!!! I love podcasts too!

I had found every episode of this one B5 podcast, and I downloaded all 111 episodes onto my ipod. It took hours and I had to delete all my music to get them all on there. I happily listened to about seven or eight of them, and then one night, while I was in the middle of listening to one eppy - every single episode was removed from my ipod!

I was so mad to say the least.

But I still love podcasts, so thanks for the second link to another one.

Yeah that would be infuriating.

Which podcast was that ? It can't be the Babylon Podcast, that one should have 280 episodes.

It's great to see more B5 podcasts starting up. Perhaps its a sign

I listened to the first one, I like the format.
Looking forward to getting more.
Is the podcast intended to be weekly, monthly, or perhaps a bit irregular ?
I can see that a fair amount of editing is done (well done, btw), so could imagine that a weekly schedule would be a bit tight.

I dunno about that, we release weekly and I understand Mike does a fair amount of editing, our trick is to record at least 3-4 weeks in advance and also to drop the odd bonus episode in recordings during the year, that way when we take a break for annual-gift.giving-period and the summer, there are casts waiting to be released.

If you've enjoyed this message and would like to explore more, go to http://gatecast.co.uk and listen to me and a proper northern bloke bang on about Stargate in (almost) all of it's forms, we've been going for nigh on 4 1/2 years now and have in excess of 200 episodes.

[DaveNarn]

Yeah, I think the gang at White Star Five is doing the same, a couple news items seemed a little dated.
None-the-less it was a good 2nd show.
Allison's critique of B5 as a trek fan is most interesting and made me consider the core difference between Trek and B5 fans.
And that is I think the appeal to trek is it's bright & clean utopian future where humans has become noble care-takers of the galaxy.

Where as B5 is a little more like Blade Runner and our heros can be flawed but no less noble.

btw - I saw a t-shirt I liked that said:
"Babylon 5 was dark and gritty long before dark and gritty was cool"

Downloading the 2nd show tonight.
I was a trek fan myself before I got into B5, and I still like both a lot. B5 wins hands down, but still . . .

Yes Dave, I have seen that quote before, maybe I should get one myself. OTOH I should be getting some #FreeBabylon5 t-shirts soon, so might as well wait a bit.

"Expect me when you see me."

Well gang the wait is over, episode #3 ' Season One (part one)' has just dropped.

Over an hour of brilliant B5 insights and commentaries.

In the words of John Sheridan "Whoo hoo!"

How did that happen? I've never noticed anything being deleted from my iPod without me deleting it on iTunes on my PC.first. Do podcasts have some expiration after which they auto-delete?
