The Babylon Podject Presents: PodSpace9 – Détails, épisodes et analyse

We recorded this before the election. Sorry.

Jude gets some managerial advice.

Home Front: At least there's another Dad in this. Cadet Nog! Sabotage! Babylon 5 I Know That Face! "Ancient Klingons slew our gods a millennia ago." Nog is part of the Sisko family now.

Paradise Lost: Planetary Emergency! ...what is Red Squad? Lots of stuff happens here. Don't use cadets for a false flag operation, they have zero opsec. This episode represents the death of TNG's idyllic isolationism. The philosophy of Badmirals.

Alternative titles: The Warmup Noogie Never meet your hero's... parents Ferengi-New Orleans Fusion Cuisine Evil Troll O'Brien

Sword of Kahless: The only evil telepaths in Star Trek. Cursed or totemic? More Klingon lore and the central conflict of Worf than we've really ever previously gotten. Yeet that artifact into space.

Our Man Bashir: This gets pretty unhinged, you've been warned. Garak's introduction to the Bond Franchise. Bond Girl Kira? Justen rants about Baccarat. The episode that launched a thousand ships. It's great to see Siddig be something other than Doctor Dweeb. Are holonovels this century's indie game scene?

Mirror Kurzon was definitely into it. Maybe the reason the Mirror Universe is so stupid is because the blood goes down to your junk. Cross-dimensional STIs. Mirror Garak is a pathetic little meow-meow. Sisko is a good action commander. Mirror Universe episodes are a chaotic, horny delight.

Matsya Nyaya: Are there codified rules of Dibs in Podcasting? Similarly, no body no death. Ordos is a real place, disturbingly. Even though it's Pablo Schreiber, we care so very little about this week's number... especially compared to the flasback plot. It feels like treading water in the present while they get past elements stacked up for the end of the season. Is knowledge of the Machine an SCP infohazard?

Many Happy Returns: Jarold shippers denied by a key. Jessica's death is probably a fridging. John increases his badge collection. Harold's thought counts, but gosh does he not know what a former operative would want in an apartment's architecture. We go through five or six different metaphors for how Donnely is bad at his job.

Also, the introduction of a new segment Zathras hopes to never hear again, Baja Bits.

In yet more evidence that the Strange New Worlds writers LOVE Star Trek, bringing the author Benjamin Russell (played by Benjamin Sisko in Deep Space 9 season 6, episode 13, Far Beyond the Stars) warms our cold, vacuum-dried hearts.

There are so many character moments in this episode where this cast has an absolute field day, in and out of Ren Faire garb. That ending, though. Platonic ideal of bittersweet.

Identity Crisis: Jude starts out the show with an EXTREMELY detailed revenge fantasy, and then expresses a complete lack of interest in Identity Crisis aside from some fun bits and one crystal clear moment of characterization for Finch and Reese. Oh, and Finch apparently invented social media. Don't talk to cops without a lawyer present.

Flesh and Blood: Buckle up, Elias is making his move. It's hard to hate Enrico Colantoni, even as Elias is _clearly_ a bad guy. Justen has notes on the particular weapon that Reese gives Carter. Does Finch technobabble John just to save time?

This episode nearly broke us. It's almost too much that we get an episode on par with Trials and Tribbilations, featuring a nonbinary pirate captain and the first trans director of a Trek.

Oh dear lord are we fighting about Muppet Treasure Island vs. Treasure Planet again... Jude gushes about Captain Blood and Errol Flynn. We put Captain Angel firmly in the tier of Lore, Khan, and Dukat in terms of best Trek villains. Jesse James Keitel deserves all your love and fan-art. It's also pretty weird to see humans treated as cultural monoliths!

Blue Code: Are you paid up with HR? Or are you running drugs for the CIA? Why aren't there shirtless police officer calendars, anyway?

Risk: Avoiding talking about the episode by discussing how to name ships is not how you win Zathras over. Canonizing the Jarold ship name... is mildly better. Jarold is Garak/Bashir with the moralities inverted?

Baby Blue: breaking with our categorization schema last episode, this number is a 6 month old baby... uh oh. Is this a recast of Two Men and a Baby but, you know, with a genius and a psychopath? Jude has a significant qualm with allowing a baby to take the place of a ballistic plate on John.

In which we coin the verb "Gorned" and the warcrimes airhorn is repurposed to be a bodyswap airhorn. Are anxiety dreams part of the human genome?

WHO STABBED ORTEGAS WITH A LIRPA, WE DEMAND THIS INFORMATION.

Also, what would happen if Jude and Justen freaky fridayed?

We also talk about the other episode, which feels like it's an uncredited adaptation of "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" by Ursula K. LeGuin.

"Investigate with your tricorder, not with your finger" is very good advice though.

We discuss the philosophy of white boards, and then... the gang argues about Harold's lazy infosec, we cheer for the return of Zoe Morgan, and the veterans' (and fan) favorite character appears. There is an extended Ramin Djawadi lovefest in this episode, and then some severe concern that the John/Harold dynamic is tamping down Jude and Justen's horniness quotient.

In WOLF and CUB, we see the last of Will Ingram, we namecheck the National Radio Quiet Zone, and eventually start arguing over Sherlock actors.
