Posting Under the Bridge from Under a Bridge


There’s a whole season of a podcast about a season of a show we like, all ready for you to catch up on. This latest season of Lower Decks wasn’t our favorite yet, but we do like our cartoons. Check it out and tell all your friends who listen to podcasts, because just how is one supposed to market a podcast these days? None of us are famous. Far from it! Even if Wade Bowen is a semi famous country musician.

Huh. Wait what? Picard is good now?

Yeah, that’s right. All those other podcasts and shows are lying to you. We’re the only source you can trust on NuTrek. NO. We’re not a cult. How dare you.

Here we go on about what works in episodes 3 and 4 of Star Trek: Picard season 3. How does the show finally use what previous seasons refused to acknowledge about the universe? Just what is the relationship between technobabble and melodrama? How prurient can we be about our extracurricular activities?

Say Yes … to Disco Home

Living with Trauma, Wade, Glen, and Sean are evaluating their relationship to Star Trek: Discovery and making the changes needed to solve the problem of how to podcast about it.

Is season 4 the best the show has ever been? What does that even mean?

Somehow the “squeecore” debate is brought up. If you’re not a soldier in those particular twitter wars… Good! Here’s the ritegud podcast that started it.

Resurrections and Going Backward in Time

Wade has another baby and the podcast just goes off the grid, huh? There’s plenty going on at the KoE patreon for a weekly fix. You can hear some of that on the Kickers of Elves main feed. In the meantime, enjoy this discussion we had about the new Matrix movie, Tenet, and what we think about some things going on.

Also new things are coming round soon on Star Trek Resignation with Wade, Glen and Sean.

Information Rumspringa

Hey, KOE is still out there. Don’t get overwhelmed.

If you’re not a patron… well, then. That’s fine. This week we’re totally dad-pilled, but if you want something lighter we also talk about Shang- Chi, Eternals, and movies some of us think are going to fail [Dune].

give us money!

And hey look! Star Trek Content! For free! On Under the Bridge we’re covering Star Trek: Lower Decks, and realizing how it’s doing the work of television well in a way that the higher profile shows could probably learn something from. Characters that have meaningful and believable arcs? On a dumb reference cartoon?!

A Finder’s Guide to the films of David Lynch

So you want to listen along to Kickers of Elves on Lynch but haven’t watched the movies yet? We got you covered.


Where does one find all these films anyway? Turns out it’s not an easy answer. The streaming rights seem to be spread all over the place, if there are any in place at all. We talk about this some in the podcast episodes-
I’m not listening to the episode because I haven’t seen the movie yet, asshole!
Oh right. Of course. I’ll detail below where we watched each film and maybe how you could do the same. Some of these are hard to find. The number one option I’d put here is CHECK OUT YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY. Blockbuster and the neighborhood video store are dead, but turns out libraries have a lot of that shit available for free. And interlibrary loans are a thing so you might stand good odds of finding things there if you live in the right place. And this is the only way to do it for free… unless you’re a bad sinful person and willing to go to the high seas [Some of you know what I mean. Those that don’t… don’t worry about it.]

Anyways, here’s how we watched the films of David Lynch for the podcast:
