We are back! After an unintended hiatus, we return to review one of the most divisive episodes of Babylon 5, season 1 episode #010, "Believers."
- Which other Babylon 5 podcast got a mention at the beginning & end of this episode?
- What years did Dave & Todd graduate high school? How is that relevant? (Hint: It's not.)
- What was one co-host's biggest issue with the A-plot, and did he wish there was more to the B-plot?
- Does this episode give a fair shot to religion? Does it make religion look bad? Or, is it a little of both?
- What were some of the best quotes in this episode?
- Which other dialogue was clunky & downright maddening?
- Who was most right or most wrong in this episode? Franklin? Sinclair? The kid's parents?
- Did Sinclair handle the situation well?
- Did Franklin learn a lesson?
- Did this episode hurt one co-host's opinion of one of the characters?
- What information did one co-host feel was most lacking from the episode?
- So... Gloppit egg... Any strong opinions? (Hint: Be prepared to adjust your volume almost 2/3 of the way through. Sorry; it's actually adjusted in editing but probably not enough.)
- What were some of this episode's best & worst moments?
- And, is this episode too much like a Star Trek episode, very different from a Star Trek episode, somewhere in between, or is there just no comparison?
Do we address these & many more controversial questions? I...*believe*...we do. Listen now if you want to be..."Believers"...too. (See what I did there?)

We might have separate Facebook & Twitter accounts "soon" (okay, *eventually*), but for now, you can also check us out at the sites for our "parent" podcast, The Discerning Geeks Portal, where we take a discerning look into other geeky topics with an additional co-host and with a frequent focus on movie reviews.

Public domain music used in this episode...
- Intro / Transition Into Spoiler Zone / Outro: "P----'s Lullaby" by Alexander Nakarada via FreePD.com (Note: This song sounds perfect for the intro to season 1 of the podcast, but it has an unfortunate name that includes the last name of a war-loving leader of a certain Eurasian country that has recently attacked & invaded another country in 2022. From now on, I'm just going to sensor the P-word in the name of the song.)
