Podcast 121: Braination Invasion

 Everybody, make yourself comfortable as Joey reads JMS version of events behind Claudia Christian leaving Babylon 5. You can listen to Claudia's version at this link (be careful as it contains a lot of foul language). I think Joey and I both take the side of JMS. Oh and this music intro was provided by Listener Brainy Smurf, entitled "This is Wrong Tool". We cover episodes 1-4 of Babylon 5, Season 5.

Various topics discussed in this podcast include:
    Joey's Culture Corner: Foundation by Isaac Asimov
    Facebook Find of the Week: Listener Fishhead - Peter Jackson video blog: The Hobbit
    Blog from Listener Brainy Smurf: The Braination
    JMS version of why Claudia Christian left B5

    Assignment TW5: Send in parenting advice about teaching a child not to lie.
    The hard/tough life is sometimes the life you need.
    Scifi never talks about friendly fire.
