S2E8 "A Race Through Dark Places"

(00:00:00) Zocalo (00:52:50) Grey Council Psi Corps is here, consent is optional, and suddenly everyone is VERY uncomfortable - this week on Babble On, Jenny, Jenn, Ali, and Gus dive into Babylon 5 Season 2, Episode 8, “A Race Through Dark Places.” The crew breaks down Bester’s deeply unsettling debut, the moral horror of telepath control, and why this episode quietly reframes everything we thought we knew about EarthGov. With three industry pros at the table, we analyze how JMS uses sci-fi to interrogate power, fascism, and complicity, while Gus and Ali experience the full psychic damage of this storyline for the first time. 🔗 Watch the reaction to this episode here✨ Support us on Patreon for early access and full-length reactions:👉 http://www.patreon.com/babbleonpod
