Andy and Van escape from a long-forgotten prison cell underneath the Centauri Palace to bring you discussion of episode SOMETHING OR OTHER IN THE 500s (!!) better known as "A Tragedy of Telepaths." Just when you despaired of Season 5 getting good, this episode actually moves the needle back in the right direction!

Andy and Van barricade themselves inside the recording studio after demanding a planet just for Babylon 5 podcasters! Unfortunately, Sheridan and Delenn don't seem to think we deserve one! Meanwhile Londo and G'Kar take a road trip like Bob Hope and Bing Crosby, that ends with G'Kar once again sleeping on somebody's floor. It's "In the Kingdom of the Blind," where the one-eyed Narn is king!

Andy and Van purchase a section of the station in order to talk to dead people! Or really just to Andy's cat, who shows up partway through to punch Andy in the face. Repeatedly. For not liking Rebo and Zooty. Ok, maybe we made part of that up. But otherwise, it's a mercifully GOOD episode of Season 5! Join us!!

Andy and Van welcome Bester onto the station, to see if he will relieve them of some guests that have perhaps overstayed their welcome. Unfortunately, Sheridan demands that Lochley find a way to get rid of Bester (for now) instead. The episode concludes with Andy and Van singing a happy song about suffering and misery! Just kidding.

Andy and Van go off to Ranger Training Camp, but there's quite a steep Learning Curve between what they're expecting and what they end up with! Van has some strong words for Lochley, as well!
Here's the link I mentioned in the show, from Drazi Green. Possible spoilers!!! I haven't watched all of it yet but it talks about Byron in Season 5:

Andy and Van just have to find that one word to say, that will make this episode of the podcast go better. They will leave it to you, the listener, to decide if things totally go off the rails this week, instead! It's the very long podcast of Londo Mollari!
Here's the audio interview (thanks, Emmanuel!) with the designers of the Sierra computer game for Babylon 5, right after it was canceled:

No, you haven't missed an episode! We promise!
As we have discussed in probably WAY too much detail, the numbering goes all kerflooey at this point in the series. So "502" is the first episode of Season 5.
Anyway! This time around, Andy and Van finally embark for the last full season of Babylon 5, where they meet Captain Lochley and "Remember Byron" again for the first time. How well does this one hold up? How close can Andy get to accurately guessing its P5 score?? Tune in and find out!
