  • Resigned to a Star Trek Disco Inferno
    Apr 29 2024

    You probably found this podcast feed because you're a fan of Star Trek. And if what our anecdotal evidence suggests is true, then you're not a fan of Star Trek Discovery. That's ok. Remember when James and Hugh got mad and bailed on that other podcast? Well it continued, and this is where A Discovery Home Companion ended up. Maybe you'll like it.

    Look for "Star Trek Resignation" in all your podcast services.

    Here's a link , the second ep of the podcast and maybe even more await you!

  • The Herman Melville of Dumb Guys
    Mar 1 2024

    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.

  • Succesion is Over
    Jun 11 2023

    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.

  • Hear All, Trust Nothing (Lower Decks S3E06)
    Oct 14 2022

    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

  • So You Want to Roleplay? TTRPG Basics [Unlocked from the Patreon]
    Aug 9 2022

    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?

    Mar 11 2022

    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?

  • More Bonus from the Patreon:Matrix, Tenet, Decline
    Jan 27 2022

    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.
