Podcast Review: Galactica Actual

Galactica Actual

Overview: Tony Torres with Battlestar Galactica (Sci Fi channel) news, reviews of episodes, character analysis, fan activities and rumors.

Passion Factor: Tony loves BSG and does a lot of research for news and other ways for us to geek out over the show.

Sound Quality: The opening music is distorted but Tony's voice is fine. Some episodes have distorted music but Tony has been improving his sound quality over time.

Sound Levels: The music and sound effects are louder than Tony's voice.

Type of music: Battlestar Galacitca of course! Bear McCreary

My prudish rating: PG-13 I guess... Only because when you talk about BSG, you're going to talk about sex and violence and political intrigue and cigar smoking.

Time: Around 30 minutes

Frequency: Every 2 or 3 weeks or so. Tony is not on hiatus like the show is, hooray.

Web Site: Galactica Actual has lots of cool stuff going on. There's a forum to connect with other fans of the podcast, an archive section to download old podcast episodes, great show notes with links to what Tony talked about, and links to other BSG stuff. It's very slick and easy to get around. You can also listen to episodes directly from the site (I recommend subscribing in a podcatcher so you never miss anything).

My Humble Opinion: A great show, great research, great music. I look forward to each episode and listen right away. And if you haven't seen Battlestar Galactica, go rent it immediately, and then listen to this podcast!
