The Poufwa Exchange Podcast

Episode 21 of the Poufwa Exchange has been released!

This episode spoils all of BattleStar Galactica!  Beware!

Dethryl, PS and I kick back and, in addition to nitpicking what type of music the fleet makes when it drives on past and laying out predictions on the identity of Emmanuelle, share our discussion-based, extreme-edition commentary of Caprica’s ninth or eighth episode, Ghosts in the Machine.

Daniel is beginning to suspect that Zoe-Avatar is in the robot, but his pleas for his daughter to reveal herself go ignored. In an effort to flush her out, he launches a campaign of psychological torture, resulting in escalating tests that force Zoe into a choice she cannot take back.

This discussion was recorded while we were watching the encore presentation of the podcast.  We are Poufwanians, and may the gods help you and the crazy nun, for we are live!

So say we all!

PS and I return for a discussion-based commentary of Caprica’s eight episode, The Imperfections of Memory, otherwise known as The Imperfections of Mercy, otherwise known as the not classic BattleStar Galactica episode preceding Warehouse 13, otherwise known as I’m blind!

Amanda fears for her sanity while Daniel and Joseph close in on their daughters.

This discussion was recorded while we were watching the encore presentation of the podcast, beginning about ten seconds into the “Previously on Caprica” segment.

Episode 17 of the Poufwa Exchange has been released!

This episode spoils all of BattleStar Galactica! Beware!

Our weekly live watch of BSG’s prequel series, Caprica, continues this week with The Reins of a Waterfall, which aired for the first time on February 6, 2010.

Following Amanda’s (Paula Malcomson) public revelation that their daughter was responsible for the MagLev tragedy, the Graystones must face the wrath of angry Capricans. For Daniel (Eric Stoltz) this includes a confrontation with Sam (Sasha Roiz) and Joseph Adama (Esai Morales) in which Joseph demands that Daniel reunite him with his daughter’s avatar — the essence of his daughter Tamara (Genevieve Buechner), living on in virtual space. Daniel also realizes he can’t deal with his grief in private — this is all going to play out on a public stage. At the same time, Zoe Graystone (Alessandra Torresani) adjusts to living life in a robot. She hopes her friend Lacy (Magda Apanowicz) will help her escape to another planet — neighboring Gemenon. Lacy is concerned, however, that she is rousing the suspicions of headmistress (and STO leader) Clarice Willow (Polly Walker). While in V-World, the girls meet a frightened Tamara Adama who doesn’t understand what she is or how she came to be here. At the Global Defense Department, Agents Duram (Brian Markinson) and Youngblood escalate their efforts to track down the terrorist group responsible for the bombing.

Episode 16 of the Poufwa Exchange has been released! 

This episode spoils all of BattleStar Galactica!  Beware!

PS and I watch and provide commentary for Caprica’s post-pilot premiere episode, Rebirth, as it airs for the first time on January 29, 2010.  Yes, for BattleStar Galactica, we will release these things within 30 minutes!

Zoe (Alessandra Torresani) struggles with being trapped in the robot while grief and pressure mount on the Adamas and the Graystones. Joseph (Esai Morales) makes a decision that drives him to confront Daniel (Eric Stoltz), and Amanda (Paula Malcomson) makes a shocking public confession.

This commentary may not line up precisely as not all commercial breaks were created equal, but luckily PS is deaf as a stump and had the volume turned up.

So say we all!
