  2. OH DEAR GOD, PLEASE TELL ME ITS NOT STARBUCK? LOL.

    How about going through crew manifest lists? You forgot about Neelix, Chakotay, Ryker, Geordi, Myles!

    Great show, keep up the great work! & Congrats!

  3. Starbuck!?

    How about Chani Jahchan, that’s got a nice ring to it. And you could look forward to a grandson called Leto :-)

    And then there’s Ghanima… no, maybe not.

  4. That is so classic.

  6. haha. The Darlec/Terminator parts were my favorites.

    I think you forgot one obvious name choice … Mahdi.

    - Dave

  7. Contrary to popular belief… I’m not actually pregnant. We just said so for the script! (Special thanks to our sh*t-disturbing friend, Douglas Saddlewood, for being just that… a sh*t-disturber)

    Andy/Jeff/Dave- Don’t you guys worry, those weren’t actually our best names. We decided not to mention our real picks for future children in order to keep it unique. (If you’re Seinfeld viewers, I’m sure you’ll remember what happened to George’s baby name ‘Seven’ after he told a friend about it!)

    Thanks for all your support! We’ll try to post disclaimers up earlier when we make fictional claims about our real life!

  8. lol

  9. PS: Dave/Jeff- Although we left out some great Dune names, we have definitely considered many of them in real life since Rudy is part Arabian and the names would go great with his last name!

    Andy- As Trekkie baby names go, I’d have to go with something like Seven, T’Pol, Kirk or James Tiberius… those are all quite acceptable to me.

  10. Dan!g! Casey isn’t pregnant. My friend Sharon and Her Husband Kevin called her Jadzia, A Really Cool Sci fi name……

    I should really concentrate on Jadzia Nurisse Temme.

    She is Better looking than that woman from Fifth Element!!

    Trust me.

    Follow the pjk show for more footage.

  11. I like where you’r going with galacticast…. keep it up

    - Arnþór Snær, May 29th, 2006
  12. Casey – shame there’s no MiniMcKinnon on the way ;-)

    Arnþór – eagle-Thor? now that’s a cool name right there.

    - Jeff Sela, May 30th, 2006
  13. I like Seven & T’Pol

    - Andy Melton, May 30th, 2006
  14. >CK: Seven, T’Pol, Kirk or James Tiberius… those
    >are all quite acceptable to me.

    Scary! maybe as a middlename but that’s as far as I would go.

    Too bad you’re not getting a wii-one.

  15. Darn! We need more sci-fi geeks in this world. TO RULE THE UNIVERSE! MUAHAHHAHAH! How about DUNE. Fits a boy or a girl :)

    - The Right Rev Chumley, May 30th, 2006
  16. Omigod, it is all SO obvious:

    Female baby name: Ripley
    Male baby name: Ripley

    Case closed…

  17. We actually know someone who named her baby (get this) Annika Skye.

    Is that not the most geek baby name in the universe?

    What a fun, silly premise for a show. I can’t wait to see what you talk about next.

  18. Hey Casey…

    Have been following your podcast evolution over the last few months. Am involved in the “Lost” Podcasting scene myself.

    Anyway…I seriously plugged Thufir as an option. Soundly rejected by family :( I suport your Gurney suggestion. Cheers,
    Jimmy.

  20. Loved the terminator theme tune at the end lol. When casey gets a phone call is that ring tone from 24′s CTU?

    - Steven, July 28th, 2006
  21. When I heard the ring from 24 I half expected to hear Jack Bauer.

    Awesome episode. My favorite was the Terminator parts.
