Not even about a TV show, but we all read a book.  You like books, don't you? Sure, maybe you haven't read Charles Portis's Masters of Atlantis.  This will not ruin that process for you, we promise.  

Let us know if you like this sort of thing, or check out the Kickers of Elves Patreon for more content maybe you'll like as well [or better].

Update:  Hey, this file is longer than 30 seconds this time.

Here we talk about the TV show we've been the most excited for in a while.  Specifically, the finale. The statute of limitations is over.  So yeah, spoilers for that.  No space stuff, sorry.  

NOT from the patreon! But check it out. There's plenty over there. For instance: Ever read Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy? We did.

What about those Rules of Acquisition?  It's back to Deep Space 9!  What you haven't watched the most recent episode? "Hear All, Trust Nothing" is more or less an episode of DS9, so we had to cover it. If you haven't caught up on Star Trek: Lower Decks don't worry, neither have James or Hugh. What is goin on post Dominion War?  Just when does this take place? How do Kira and Quark work as cartoons?  What is going on with all these new Trek shows?  It's almost an old fashioned RoA

Know nothing about D&D or tabletop role playing games?  Hugh talks to an expert* to figure out just what the deal is.  How much is the past time growing?  What is the history of D&D?   Just how the hell do you play a game where you pretend to be an elf?

Then a look at the Star Trek Adventures role playing game.  

*It's Wade. He talks to Wade. Surprise surprise. No James in this one. 

Yep, this one is from the patreon too.

hit us up on twitter if you want, I guess

On the patreon: Hugh and James have opinions on Strange New Worlds!  Wade Hasn't even seen it yet?!  

Here is a preamble to that discussion. 

More can be found at the patreon.

James and Hugh watched the Peter Jackson Beatles documentary on Disney + and there's a discussion on making art.  Didn't watch it? That's ok, Wade didn't either.  You like the Beatles, right?

You guessed it: Patreon content!

Here's more from what we talk about at https://patreon.com/kickersofelves

Matrix and Tenet, compared. And Spider-Man. And convoluted metaphors about art. And The View? A little culture talk. James has a delightful conspiracy theory. Who’s coming for the auteurs? Does culture need to decentralize? Can subcultures sustain us? The re-Lolapaloozing of Gen X.

Spoilers I guess.

Miss the regular updates?  Yes, I'm here reminding you again we update the patreon feed regularly. 

Wade has only seen one episode of Succession, so James and Hugh tread lightly to talk about what they like on the show every person seems to be talking about.  

Check out the patreon where we go into a longer discussion on current tv including: Joe Pera, Misconceptions about Ronald D. Moore's apple space show For All Mankind, MORE Succession, and finally, Wade’s Discovery thoughts while Star Trek Resignation lingers.

Stick around til the end when Hugh revisits what we knew and didn't know about Terry Ferrel.  

Initiate Arjin visits DS9 to whine! A baby universe. Voles! Jadzia gets an intern, or a trill up for joining who is surprised by the unorthodox Dax. Finally the "Is Jadzia Kurzon?" question is settled. Wade makes the argument this episode can serve as a meta-commentary on the character herself. OH, and there's a proto universe that gets batted around by muppet skinless cats. Are the moral implications of stepping on a universe of ants more deserving of an A plot than Jadzia's sex wrestling? Listen and decide for yourself!

It's another Remix of The ROA.  Stick around til the end when Hugh talks bout Bolians.

Welcome to Space Mayberry! It's NOT a next generation rewrite? Go figure. Odo and Dax land on a planet that is NOT a TNG script. Quark is running shenanigans while Odo is gone. Will Kira get her swerve on? Yes she will. We love this writer, we... well, this ain't a bad episode.
