Twin Peaks The Return: Part 16, with Bismuth Hoban Aug 29, 2017

Show notes

Is Part 16 the first installment of The Return that gives us more answers than questions? Bismuth Hoban joins us on the journey from a highway to a dancefloor for a narrative that goes into hyperdrive. The son goes into the trap, the tulpa goes out the window and more than one person wakes up after a long time away. All this and commentary that's been described as “stellar” and “great”. During TheoryFish Andy mentions a very interesting theory written by Eileen G. Mykkels entitled 'Laura Palmer is Dale Cooper’s Mother and Here’s Why".

Twin Peaks The Return: Part 15, and an interview with Jake Wardle Aug 23, 2017

Show notes

ZZ Top and Sunset Blvd. together at last! David Bowie in a diving bell, Ed and Norma in love, Richard in trouble, and Dougie and Margaret in states of change, it’s Part 15 and it’s got it all. We open with a discussion about sound and dissociation in Twin Peaks before we dive into the episode and finish with an interview with Jake Wardle, actual Freddie Sykes himself! All this an commentary that has been described as "detailed". Halfway through the episode Andy refers to the origins of Judy and refers to this very interesting 2009 article from John Thorne: https://abovethestore.blogspot.com.au/2009/04/judy-judy-judy.html Finally, Andy is TOTALLY WRONG when he says that he remembers Leland Palmer referring to The Robertson's living above a convenience store at Pearl Lakes. Andy got confused with MIKE'S story about the convenience store and Leland's reference to the Robertsons living in a cabin. He apologises for any trouble caused by this.

Twin Peaks The Return: Part 13, with Sarah Ward Aug 08, 2017

Show notes

Starting positions listeners. Join us as we unravel timelines and reflect the reflections for Part 13 of Twin Peaks the Return, with help from special guest Brisbanian film critic and long-term Peaks fan Sarah Ward. Time loops, Peaks fracture, frames straighten and a pattern emerges, from a joyous conga line to an empty gas station. All this an commentary that has been described as both "thoroughly enjoyable" and "unwholesome". Toward the end of the episode Andy refers to the scene in which Ed Hurley stares out of the window and his reflection doesn't stare back. He thinks it's chilling, other people just say "hmmm".

Twin Peaks The Return: Part 12, with Thembi Soddell and Jess Pinney Aug 01, 2017

Show notes

Audrey's out of detention, Jerry's out of the woods, and Sarah's convenience store is out of Smirnoff. It's Part 12 of Twin Peaks the Return and all bets are off. This week, sound scholars and long-term Lynch nerds Thembi Soddell and Jess Pinney join Andy and Hayley to discuss one of the most divisive installments yet. Talk turns to Twin Peaks and trauma, Lynch and Hurley's sound design and what's really going on with Charlie and Audrey. All this and solid, and now award-winning, Peaks discussion that some listeners are calling "really good, actually."

Show notes

Lay out the chevron tablecloth, set your ovens to 'Moderate' and sharpen your Instagram filters, it's time for another slice of Twin Peaks The Return. To help us cut up Part 11 (and rate theories on our TheoryFish segment), we get the help of film critic and writer Jo DiMattia. All this and solid, and now award-winning, Peaks discussion that some listeners are calling "decent" and "ace!". During the podcast, Andy mentions THIS photograph that compares Gordon Cole's vision of the Woodsmen on the staircase with the picture that Mrs Tremond gave Laura in Fire Walk With Me. It's worth a look: https://imgur.com/a/XeptA Music courtesy of @theblackhundred Find us on Twitter and Facebook at TPseason3.

Twin Peaks The Return: Part 10, with Anders Furze, and an interview with Eamon Farren Jul 19, 2017

Show notes

This week we round out our discussion about Part 10 with an interview with the actor who plays its most potent protagonist Richard Horne, the surprisingly forthcoming and very non-American Eamon Farren. Our guest this week is Anders Furze, he's a journalist at The Citizen, co-host the podcast Cultural Capital, a freelance film critic who engages in mad Twitter lolz at andersfurze. Andy mentions a spreadsheet listing all the inconsistencies between Season 1 and 2 canon and Mark Frost's book The Secret History of Twin Peaks. You can find that here (and it's best done while keeping in mind Mark's favourite quote "the truth is a pathless land"): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XEvoZzu9XUU13cWcELbJ3vQ2M--lnnGowrElBTRec8M/edit#gid=0 Music courtesy of @theblackhundred and @johnnyjewel Find us on Twitter and Facebook at TPseason3.

An interview with Mark Frost Jul 04, 2017

Show notes

With The Return paying a respectful silence to July 4 it seemed like a good time to share an interview with Mark Frost recorded earlier this year. While wandering around his place in California, Mark Frost talks about his book The Secret History of Twin Peaks, creating the new season and, being a sentient human living in the United States, his take on its political fortunes.

Twin Peaks The Return: Part 8, with Clare Nina Norelli Jun 27, 2017

Show notes

Take a deep breath, bring your zippo and remember to blink, it’s time to strap in and set the controls for Part 8... First, meet your copilot Clare Nina Norelli. Clare was already an accomplished writer about film sound, music and David Lynch before she wrote the book Soundtrack to Twin Peaks in which she tackles Lynch and Badalamenti's use of music in the first two seasons. All this, and analysis critics describe as being "from the heart" and "surprisingly decent." Shownotes: On this episode we mention Herk Harvey’s 1962 film Carnival of Souls and Gene Moore’s organ-heavy score. Like any self-respecting Lynch academic, Clare wrote about this film years ago and you can find her essay on the film and its soundtrack, which many attentive Twin Peaks viewers have mentioned influenced some scenes in Part 8, here - https://cinemaandsong.wordpress.com/2015/08/07/carnival-of-souls/ If you don’t already own a copy of Clare’s book, you can find out more about it and source a copy here - http://www.bloomsbury.com/au/angelo-badalamentis-soundtrack-from-twin-peaks-9781501323010/ The two sound nerds who carry around frequency analysers on a daily basis that Andy mentions are future guest of the show Jessica Pinney and Thembi Soddell, both currently engaged in researching sound and emotion at Melbourne's RMIT University.
