The Expanse S2E7 "The Seventh Man" | Manipulation, Belter Politics & Bobby's Debrief

 On the latest JKL Media podcast, Lou and co-hosts Karen and Jesse discuss The Expanse Season 2, Episode 7, "The Seventh Man," praising its density, character work, and political tension. They focus on Anderson Dawes' return, his Belter accent and crowd-manipulation, and how he probes Holden, Naomi, and Diogo to gain leverage—especially by getting pointed toward Cortazar and the protomolecule. The crew debates Fred Johnson's plan to return stolen missiles to Earth as a manufactured gesture of goodwill and notes rising strain between Holden and Naomi over Belter politics. They also cover Bobby Draper's rescue and debrief, where Mars pressures her to shape her story about the "seventh man," and highlight Amos' shaken reaction to scaring a mother and child and Cortazar's offer to purge emotions. The episode ends with ratings and plugs, teasing next week's "Pyre."
