You guys, Martok HATES Kor.
When Kor shows up at Worf’s drunk in the middle of the night and asks him to do a favor so he can die with dignity, what is a bro supposed to do?
Progressive Left vs the old guard liberals: Worf is Peter Daou.
This 90s television show is all about post Trump politics, right?
Rad or… Bad?
The identity of the red angel is revealed! And then some. What is the best way to catch a time traveler who might have pertinant information at its disposal?
Sean is back. Where was he last week and what is going on with Star Trek Discovery?
The streak is broken and Wade wasn’t as big a fan of this episode.
Can Glen do a “short” synopsis? All questions will be answered!
Even when we’re not yelling loudly about it, there’s stuff going on at the Kicker of Elves patreon. Two short talks we had this week:
The Quiet Ennui of the High School PE Teacher
Where we talked about the games people play and men who yell at teenagers.
And sometime paddle them.
Greatest Edgelords
We talk some about the “controversy” regarding Star Trek and canon, and what that really might be about for some of the angry lads on the internet.
Become a patron and listen to more of us talking! Coming Soon: the end of our Hashish and Superiority Platinum series on Alan Moore’s Watchmen
What happens in this episode? [See title of episode]
The final installment of the Ferengi Pickers Cycle. Kira’s boyfriend also gets an interesting story!
Does DS9 actually do faith ok in this episode?
The streak of episodes we like continues. A background character gets some background for once and hey they pull off things in this episode of Star Trek: Discovery that S1 did not manage quite so well.
Wade is joined by Glen Hall again, but no Sean Perrotta. Lane Bowen does make a return, but without his wife or infant this time around.
One Flew Back to the Cuckoo’s Nest. Do Re OH NO.
Julian brings a patient out of a catatonic state and what’s the first thing he does after?
Julian. Your ethics, man. Has he learned anything over the seasons? How toxic is the masculinity? Are we supposed to be rooting for him or not? How does Miles feel about Julian’s situation?
Pike’s imaginary girlfriend shows up and a deep, dark, unforgivable and totally life altering secret shame that Michael Burnham has been hiding for years, comes to light.
[Totally not a rote typical sibling interaction]
Only two companions, Glen and Sean, join Wade this week. But we’re… close. Too close? If you’re still listening after two minutes, Glen baits the hook for an incredible, life affirming joke he’s saving for the end of the pod.
A haughty Vulcan challenges the emotional Sisko to a game of baseball and we got us a shenanigans episode, y’all! But what’s this about an ethnoship? Take me out, please.
We finally have Spock, and it is … fine. Time rifts are fine. We’re… pretty good?
For all the leadup to this episode it didn’t instill any wild emotions that we’ll need to use our logic to suppress.
Pike and Tyler get caught up in some time shenanigans and learn a little bit about themselves.
Bucky with the Good Hair returns! (twitter.com/buckyWTgoodhair)
Wade turns to Kristin from Toronto for her thoughts on the Kickers of Elves discord.
What about that space dyslexia?
What do we think of some of the theories and predictions out there on the web?
We have some other shows to talk about at the end.
check out the patreon, whydoncha?
Does Ezri Dax even want to be on Deep Space Nine? Well of course she does, but the show needs an episode to integrate a counselor into station life. Garak and Worf especially have some issues to deal with.
Is season 7 back on track?
