The Power Fantasy - vol I with Carin Slater

Saison 2

dimanche 26 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:16:23

This is the first episode of our season on "The Power Fantasy", an Image comic by Kieron Gillen and Casper Wijngaard.

This episode covers the first collected volume of "The Power Fantasy", issues #1-5. We highly recommend you read the comics first as this episode gets into heavy spoilers.

In this episode… the boys attempt to move forward without that Babylon 5 crutch, starting a podcast to deter your son from Dogman, Mike gets all the cookies and bars he wants, the quiz segment lives on, Dre gets on the Slater family chore point board, the president should have gone for the head, you can’t exact revenge without taking out a few friends along the way, Masumi the depression Hulk is awesome, the ethical threshold of lying, Heavy makes a human meatball, and Dre makes parfait out of a layer cake.

This week's guest is Carin Slater.

Carin Slater from the “Hey, Have You Read This Yet?” podcast returns. Carin is an avid reader of sci-fi, romance and horror novels but took a break from all that to read Volume I of The Power Fantasy.

Check out Hey, Have You Read This Yet?, Carin's book club podcast for kids and adults who like to read together. Send in book recommendations to heyhaveyoureadthis@gmail.com.

Minisode - Babylon 5 Fan Theories with Karl Wolf

Saison 1

dimanche 19 juillet 2026 • Durée 22:35

In this episode… Dre’s fan theory on fan theories from Jeff’s fan theory on the fate of Sheridan’s Soul, Karl ties it to Carl Sagan, Mike brings it back to early Babylon 5 soul mythos, Karl’s LOTR comparisons expanded to outer rim fan theories, Mike lets Dre sit in the bit, the Simpsons Trivia Trap backfires compliments of Pete Johnston, Dre takes a moment to thank the guests, a bonus bonus question, Dre sticks up for Grey 17 one last time… and it kinda works! Also… Dre adds a surprise category on Fan Theories, and Blitzcast as a concert.

This week's guess is Karl Wolf. Karl Wolf is a singer and Babylon 5 enthusiast from Detroit.

Karl works for a non-profit organization in Detroit called Samaritas that works to help immigrants in the area. Please donate to samaritas.org if you are able.

Minisode - Creepy Lizard Peepers

Saison 1

dimanche 12 avril 2026 • Durée 11:45

In this minisode… boffing, neither Dre nor Mike get the term “Gambit” right but Mike has a better excuse because unlike Dre he is not an internationally ranked chess player, Mike doesn’t care and introduces Slater’s Gambit to the show, the boys briefly pivot to covering Happy Endings and The Knuckles Show, the creepy peeping peepers of a lizard man, short-cycle generation gaps, Dan stans the Psy Corp, the brothers compete to say their last name in a practice buzzer question, and Dre finally gets in the last word.

The only place to stream Babylon 5 is with an Amazon account - we strongly suggest looking for the DVDs at your library. Or if you live near Dre or Mike, we'll likely loan you our copies.

Babylon 5 - Season 4 Episode 20 & 21 Endgame and Rising Star with Dan Alvarez

Dan Recommends:

The Expanse

Once again, we have been stymied by streaming services that continually drop Babylon 5 from their platform. Both Tubi and Roku have let them go. The only place to stream Babylon 5 is with an Amazon account - but we strongly suggest looking for the DVDs at your library over giving Amazon more money. Or if you live near Dre or Mike, we'll likely loan you our copies.

For the next full episode, we cover the Babylon 5 movie: In The Beginning with Ryan Bond. Coming to you Sunday, April 19th.
