This is “You Gotta Check This Out” With Mike Slater and Dre Alvarez. Each season, we take a deep dive into one of our nerdy obsessions - giving each show, book, band, game, sport, hobby… whatever as much time as we see fit to get each other and you up to speed with something we love. For our first topic, we’re exploring the epic 90’s Sci-Fi series, Babylon 5. We’ll guide you through all five seasons of the show - featuring key episodes and using them as discussion points across the series. If you're curious about getting into Babylon 5, this is a good place to start. In a fitting twist of fate, Babylon 5 is no longer available for free or with a subscription on any service. We suggest looking for the DVDs at your library. Or if you live near Dre or Mike, we'll likely loan you our copies. To follow along with us, you can watch these episodes of Babylon 5.

    In This Episode… “Touched by A Vorlon” a very after school special of Babylon 5, my kingdom for goo eyes, proper deployment of a “Scarlet Witch” scene, can you tarnish a legacy, in my world we land planes, bring it on connections, and Mike wedges Hickman into the discussion.


    This week's guest Pete Johnston is a director and film professor at MSU. You can read all about him and his film projects at the cleverly named pizzageni.us. Pete was a quarter-finalist on the 2025 Jeopardy second chance tournament and can be seen there whenever the Jeopardy gods decide to put that one on streaming.


    Pete recommends the movie "Joy Bubbles" set in the world of the phone phreaks.


    Dre recommends "Bring It On!". Yeah, the cheer-dance movie.
