Wade, Glen and Sean are back. We come not to bury Star Trek: Discovery, but to praise it… what we can about it. It’s dying at the end of the season anyway. We also come to criticize. Mostly that. But for the right reasons, people. We promise. If you hate how gay it is, we can’t help you there. That goes back to the things we can say positive about it. Why does every criticism of this show have to start off on the defensive about how great diversity is?

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.

We’re still talking about everything on the patreon. Here you might see some recent bleed-over from that show everyone was talking about that is finally over.
Oh. … and Wade made it over to that other place: bogmad.bsky.social

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.

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.

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].
Check out Kickers of Elves on Patreon, where twice this week we try to get to the bottom of some of the current idiocy.

Information Rumspringa? https://t.co/dKUJAXfDzP pic.twitter.com/n3mhfPbiyc
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?!

It’s Star Trek Resignation time again.
Wade deemed Glen and Sean “not scabs” and watched the first two episodes of Star Trek: Lower Decks, a Star Trek show we like. Come at us, trekkers.
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:

The next phase of the podcast has begun! All of our series on the films of David Lynch are now available to listen to in any order that you wish. Except Fire Walk with Me. You’ll have to wait til we drop the next batch of episodes for that. Because Twin Peaks.

Big changes are coming to The Rules of Acquisition Podcast. For one, we’re changing the name. We’re done with DS9, so the RoA is done with us. From here on out “Kickers of Elves” is going to delve deep on a variety of subjects. So tell your pretentious friends who don’t care about Star Trek that we’re covering all the films of David Lynch and then Twin Peaks. And then what? Who knows? We’ve gone mad with power and the availability of microphones and easy distribution.
