• Episode 2 - Au Revoir, David Lynch

  A sad goodbye to the origin character of our podcast: the one and only David Lynch. There are few organized thoughts, just vibes, in this podcast as we speak from the heart (and the gut) about the loss of one of our biggest creative and intellectual influences of all time.   Note: We are still working on figuring out our new recording situation, and Lindsay's audio is still less than optimal. We will continue to improve this in the future. Note 2: Check out the Blue Rose Task Force Podcast, on which Lindsay is a guest for an upcoming episode, here: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-detail/taed2-22e1c1/Blue-Rose-Task-Force-A-Twin-Peaks-Obsessive-Podcast

• Episode 1 - Twin Peaks - We Return

  The Bicks are back! Nearly 8 years after we started our podcast, and ten since the gum we liked was clearly coming back in style, we've returned from our year-long hiatus to revisit an old favourite: Twin Peaks. We talk about the fandom of the show itself, its lasting impressions on us, and whether or not it has impacted television the way the original Twin Peaks did way back in 1990. Our new approach is focused primarily on discussing whatever topics we feel like, whenever we feel like it, so fair warning that episodes are not likely to be regular, on any specific topic, or with any coherent structure. Thank you in advance to anyone who has stuck with us over the last 8 years! We have new social media @s as well, having left the hellsite that is Twitter and the stupid that is Facebook. We're currently on Tumblr, because we are really just internet children of the 2010s, as well as Instagram and Threads. Feel free to drop us a line there whenever you want! Notes: Here is that Drew Gooden episode about how annoying media production is these days. And here is the F.D. Signifier Drake v Kendrick video that bucks the trend of too long video essay. Zero excess. Aidan could not find any physical copy of Dark for sale. He is tres sad. Twin Perfect was released over 4 years ago, just FYI. Intro and Outro music is by The Impossibulls, as always. It's our theme at this point.

• Episode 26.5 - TNG Season 4 Watchalong - First Contact

  Note: We will be taking a summer break for the next 4-5 weeks to coincide with some vacation plans, but will be returning in the second half of summer with Season 5. For this week, join us as we revisit the episode that had the largest divergence of opinions in our Season 4 breakdown, "First Contact" complete with Riker sex innuendo and reactionary martyrs. It may not be the perfect episode, but it did provide some fodder for banter with The Bicks.

• Episode 26 - The Next Generation Season 4

  Season 4 -- the first full 90s season, as Lindsay says -- doesn't feature a whole bunch of changes on screen or behind the camera, but did bring a lot of depth to the characters and the world they inhabit. Join us as we talk about family, friends, drama, and First Contact, one of the greatest episodes of the show! (Yes, Aidan wrote this intro...) Episode Sponsor: Ancestry.federation.

Bicks Log: What does it say about genetic families in Star Trek that they're so secondary to the one found on board the Enterprise? Notes: Once again, it was time for a tier ranking of Season 4 episodes, so be prepared for Aidan to defend how great (almost) every episode is, while Lindsay tries to knock them all down a few pegs. Recognitions: Intro Music: Chasing Stars by AG Music Outro Music: Idle Hands by The Impossibulls
