Reporting live from a quarter million miles out: Oof, it’s been a couple of minutes since I did one of these, hasn’t it?

502: The Binder of Babylon
Linking in from brown sector: Geeky ramblings are back, this time involving a show that’s making a minor – and well-deserved – comeback thanks to a much overdue facelift. And where this show is concerned, I was there, at the dawn of the nerd age of fankind… chronicling the show for myself with stuff that the studio sent out to the TV stations giving the series its original broadcast run. Does Babylon 5 still have things to say? Oh yes. Yes it does. Perhaps now more than ever.

501: The Apple Episode
HGR2: You think I’m a pretty basic podcast host? Oh baby, I am totally a BASIC podcast host. It’s a memory core dump from the early days of Commodore PETs and the mighty Apple IIe-compatible Franklin ACE 1000, a journey back in time to the computers that made me fall in love with…well…computers. Also, the obligatory soundtrack, action figure, gaming, and TV mutterings, and maybe a hint as to why Phosphor Dot Fossils vanished for a little while.
