Secrets of the Soul

Babylon 5 For the First Time - Not a Star Trek Podcast

Two veteran Star Trek podcasters watch Babylon 5 for the first time. Brent Allen and Jeff Akin search for Star Trek like messages in this series, deciding if they should have watched it sooner.
We learn about the Hyach and, apparently, Zack and Lyta haven't been a thing for awhile. Brent shares with Jeff his ASTOUNDING discovery about Zathras in this episode. We're pretty sure this will blow your mind!
This show is produced in association with the Akin Collective, Mulberry Entertainment, and Framed Games. Find out how you can support the show and get great bonus content like access to notes, a Discord server, unedited reaction videos, and more: https://www.patreon.com/babylon5first
