About Muppets, Sex, and Trauma

Join Sara, Ren, & Zylla every other week to discuss Babylon 5 and Deep Space Nine. Two shows with similar ingredients, but different creative approaches. We're not looking at who did it better, but what we can discover when we put them in conversation with each other and with our present cultural climate. Formerly Muppets, Sex, & Trauma

   DS9 Episode 1.7 Q-Less

   The station gets a couple of unexpected guests from Trek's past, and it would probably have been better if they had stayed there. Zylla, Ren, & Sara get a bit silly while trying to figure out what, for the love of the Prophets, happened here. Join Ren and Sara on October 21 for a live Conversation about Joy: https://youtube.com/live/PHRaGyMYuJY?feature=share Podcast socials https://bsky.app/profile/9to5scifipod.bsky.social https://www.youtube.com/@9to5scifipod https://www.tumblr.com/9to5...
