Twin Peaks Peeks

Scott Benson joins us to talk about loss. About getting to know people. About mysterious messages... and... about swearing in the rain.

Reckless kids. Shady dealings. Mysterious phone calls. There's a lot of shit to dig through this week — good thing we've got our golden shovels.

Familiar faces. Unfamiliar spaces. Good fortune. Bad smells. Thumbs up. Furrowed brows. Our dharma? Podcasting. Your dharma... http://tinyurl.com/pdxdonate

The stars turn. A time presents itself. Intros are nailed. "Lost" is discussed. As is "Scooby Doo." Billy Ray Cyrus is invoked. A new member joins the Silver Fox Club. In other words, Twin Peaks Peeks is back.

New episodes of Twin Peaks are just a few days away. We're still here. Today we're talking about coffee ads. Join us.

Mark Frost wrote a new Twin Peaks book. We're here to talk about it. You know the drill.

Our discussion of The Missing Pieces (deleted scenes from Fire Walk With Me) and our initial thoughts on the casting news from Showtime!

Our discussion of Fire Walk With Me. We also delve a little bit into our thoughts on what the film might mean for season 3 and have a comment or two on the recently released casting news from Showtime, but our extended discussion of the latter will accompany our episode on The Missing Pieces.

Twin Peaks Peeks finishes Season 2 with guest Scott Benson of I'm So Sure Podcast. This week's cover art is a comparison of the Owl Cave petroglyph with a real petroglyph in Washington, sent to us by Christian Hartleben (@prophit19701).

A rocky start to what aired as the first part of the Twin Peaks finale in 1991.

We credit a particular writer for putting the entire Twin Peaks team on their back this week as we approach the season 2 conclusion. There's also a murder offscreen this week, because Twin Peaks.

The show starts picking up threads to weave together in the finale. Oh, and Donna makes the least impactful threat ever.

Things are looking up on this week's episode. It's a miracle. A massive, massive miracle.

We try to figure out the motivations driving each character in the show. It only goes sort of well.

Even though there's another new face in Twin Peaks, all eyes are on Ben's FILA jacket.

TPP is back from hiatus with (1) some news about the new series (2) serious discussion (3) Dana Ashbrook talk (4) Chris Pine talk and (5) more Dana Ashbrook talk.

In a world without weenies, Ashley and Mat struggle to find the bright spots in this week's episode. Britney Spears mash-up: https://youtu.be/vnuPYfTQybc David Lynch's 'Return of the Jedi': https://youtu.be/PALjbTo1D5U

Mat got lazy about updating the podcast. If you've already watched the episode, you've got one guess as to what kind of scene we spend time ranking this week.

Molly Shannon is in this one. In an alternate timeline, Leo would be starting a new business venture. Just pretend a writer's strike happened.

A wealth of new characters helps us add to the ever-growing pile of Twin Peaks spin-off ideas.
