Tim, Summer and Bret chat with Peter David and Kathleen David, with Peter telling us about how he got into writing episodes for the show, how he needed to divert from "writing for Star Trek" in order to get the Babylon 5 feel correct in the episodes and the novels, finding character voices, and more.

Kathleen talks a little about logistics behind getting the Del Rey B5 novels published, from author selection to publishing schedule and more.

Tim, Summer and Bret chat with Pat Tallman, mostly about the Lyta Alexander Favorites Poll, how the poll came about, and maybe even a hint about an upcoming book from our friends at B5Books.com.

Seriously, who doesn't like seeing chicks kicking butt?

Summer and Gary chat with Carrie Dobro (Dureena Nafeel)!

Carrie talks about how much fun she'd had on the show, the challenges of her costume and her contact lenses, about the possible character development paths that Dureena might have gone on with both Galen and Gideon, and much much more.

We get a minor "Thor" report from Bret, who totally forgot to keep an eye out for the JMS cameo, but he liked the movie.

Then came the flood of voicemail...

Tim, Summer and Bret discuss "Ruling From the Tomb", written by Peter David.

Tim has questions about the execution of this episode's premise. While he's good with the cropping up of doomsday cults, the abundance of coincidental meetings and convergent threads doesn't sit well with him.

There are pieces of this episode that were changed or removed between earlier drafts and the final shooting, and details about those are in Crusade: Other Voices, Vol 2, and we can't wait for Peter David to join us to talk about them.

Feedbackapalooza: Telepath smackdown? Either way, this episode seems to be chock full of questions from Adam from start to finish.

Tim and Summer chat with Marjean Holden, our honorary co-host for this episode!

Marjean talks about her ventures into writing for television and film, her love of the science fiction genre, the anticipation of experiencing Crusade's story shift after they'd found the cure but would be chased down to prevent them from distributing it, and the loss of not being able to follow and finish that story.

Let's start the rumor mill ourselves: Marjean Holden is on board for that secret Crusade miniseries project!

We have more voicemail from you guys to go through! Tim and Summer also lament the fact that they completely forgot to ask David Allen Brooks about the pak'ma'ra porn gag.

Kudos to Gary's April Fool's Joke that he posted here... but be wary of payback in kind, sweetheart!

Tim and Summer chat with David Allen Brooks, about how he got into acting, how he approached the character of Max Eilerson, the research into being a scientist and archaeologist, the differences he observed between working on a science fiction drama compared to "just another" police procedural, the fans of Max, where Max's story arc might have taken him, and much more.

The Babylon 5 Scripts Team sent Tim and Summer a surprise this week, and just around the same time that they are releasing this latest scriptbook into the wild, you can hear us give you a sneak peek into the book's contents.
