S1E56 - Narns don't do buttons

CW: discussion of alcoholism

In which the gang discusses the abruptly truncated telepath storyline (and a fun tongue twister), Bester implanting Asimov's Laws in Garibaldi, JMS writing himself into a corner and then painting a door to escape, the utility of a bucket of wrenches, comparisons are made between Lochley and Bester, and we point out repeatedly that the only nice thing to ever happen to Lyta was that Zach brought her a pizza once. After a brief diversion into discussing the new JMS comic that we're not going to read, we cringe over Afterburner brand whiskey (that's gotta be a mach 2 hangover), Jude continues to ship Franklibaldi, the lack of google reverse image search is posed as a challenge, and wait... is G'Kar getting royalties? JMS has evolved to the point where he's inserting pre-buttals into the text of the show.

Did we mention that watching Bester taunt Garibaldi is super fun?
