A fun episode!  Enjoyed the Tralk crew chat; now that I've seen most of you, I could imagine Nicola furiously scribbling as you all cracked wise.  Really liked the Grazya article -- AG really nailed her.  And, of course, "my boy" Michael really knows his science!  :)

** another great episode **

Anybody have a Who's Who diagram of the Tralk-Talk Universe? And what character corresponds to which FS creation . . when they do?

Well, very few of the TT characters were based on Farscape characters... most were based on Sesame Street or other muppet characters.  A lot of similar things have happened to our characters, of course, but it would be hard to say "X is Y" in relation to Farscape story lines or character development.  The closest might be the Kalish Chef/Scorpius connection, but even in that case, Boullia has some of Scorpius in her too. 

Let me try a quick list...

Another excellent episode! I must be the only one who caught the very subtle Torchwood reference you guys threw into this week's Tralk Talk. It was probably because I watched that particular episode during my recent Torchwood marathon to prep for the 5-part "Children of Earth" storyline that's gonna take up it's third season. In fact, one of my friends is at college in Wales and she told me the other night while we were IM'ing that she saw some of the cast and crew film outside her apartment just a few weeks ago! She didn't get any autographs, though. Otherwise I'd beg her to get me John Barrowman's, because Captain Jack is fast becoming one of my favorite characters in the "Doctor Who" universe.

I also liked the article on relativity -even though I was thinking of the episode of the same name, and that squee-worthy moment at the beginning of it... ;)- and also liked the insight into Grayza. I was kinda shocked that she was pregnant, too. I also liked the Crew Chat. It's a nice eye-opener into how collaborative you guys really are. Keep up the great work!

P.S. Love that Brent was the one who came up with the Torchwood joke! Brownie points to him! ;D

I'd love to take credit, but Sammy suggested it.  I was just the first to identify it to the rest of the crew as having come from Torchwood.  :)

Thanks for the feedback, MAS.  It means a lot for all the hard work these guys do to get an episode out to hear from the listeners how much they enjoyed it.

Re:  Tralk Talk characters.
Just in case some of your are confused, Apu is actually a character from the Simpsons.  He never appeared in any Muppet production. Same goes for Julia Child.
