What makes a great Twin Peaks podcast?  It’s a good time of year to shine a light on the wide variety of Twin Peaks podcasts, and there’s no one better to help John in this task than fellow Peaks pod fanatic Agent Ivy.
Find out which podcasts—from the early days to today—have noteworthy host chemistry, do their research, are completists, and/or have different formats than recapping. We bet you’ll find a few new favorites before this episode is over.

Twin Peaks Episode 20 says goodbye to Jean Renault with a stupendous monologue your host John explores for thematic and lore implications. Also, what changes did Lynch want director Todd Holland to make to the episode, and why? How do we parse all the sexuality used as a weapon this episode? What is Windom Earle’s relationship to electricity, and what does Major Briggs tell us about the lore of the White Lodge? The middle of Season 2 continues to have more richness than its reputation implies.

Agent Elle is back with a field report relating to all things Cinema and Twin Peaks. She and John explore well beyond how Twin Peaks references cinema, up to and including how the origins of film and psychoanalysis relate. Lots to unpack in another deceivingly compact package.

Episode 19 of Twin Peaks is underway and storms are coming, but some characters are more prepared to weather them than others.
Your host John discusses Ben Horne’s descent via feng shui into a delusion as a Civil War general, while also looking into the influence of Ken Burns’ The Civil War on the storyline. 
More delusion is under investigation with “may be the devil” Little Nicky and “she’s a witch” Lana, and James’ storyline is more on theme with Twin Peaks than it lets on. Has Nadine crossed a line beyond just healing? Is Cooper getting supernatural assistance with his suspension, or just help from Audrey? And how does it go for Bobby as he tries to connect to father figures?

Denise Bryson arrives in Twin Peaks in Episode 19 along with genuine lore about the Lodges and your host John looks into the origins of both of them. 
Then it’s time to ask if we’re watching a new timeline, or which characters could be in a wonderful dream and which are in terrible nightmares.  How is Denise’s portrayal handled? Is Nadine living her best life? Should Little Nicky maybe get a therapist instead of Dick and Andy? How much in common do Josie and Evelyn have? Is Cooper doing the right thing not looking at his suspension with fear? And can he say the same for how he listens to the voice of Windom Earle laying out his fate for the rest of the season?

Twin Peaks changes course as the Who Killed Laura Palmer arc closes, and your host John looks into all the factors (network pressure, a push for shorter story arcs, a nixed Cooper/Audrey romance, among other things) to paint an explanation of how the new direction came to be. 
Then it’s time to ask: Just what did we miss in three missing days (and what we and the characters can’t understand without them)? What cycles are ending, and beginning? What signs of the supernatural can we still see just under the surface?

The first third of Twin Peaks Season 2 has concluded and it’s time for a mailbag. Your host John reacts to reviews, talks biblical connections to Twin Peaks, and shares social media conversations on opposing philosophies. Then he shares how podcasting has changed his approach to analysis, and talks about a twitter interaction that’ll never be topped.

Agent Elle Holgate returns with a Field Report, focusing on a psychological reading of the “Who Killed Laura Palmer” story arc. She and John discuss possible diagnoses of Laura’s killer, pertinent background and nuances thereof, as well as come at the question from a spiritual perspective. How do they tackle dissociation, trauma and responsibility, or how Twin Peaks’ mythology works with these readings? What is said about Sarah, Maddy and Audrey? Is Twin Peaks told from Laura’s perspective? And how aware IS Lynch of psychological understanding? There’s a LOT to unpack in this compact episode.

Laura Palmer’s killer is apprehended in Twin Peaks Episode 16 and your host John takes you through it, from production history to the existential questions it leaves us with. 
Is time compressed, or just the plot? How do we see inversions through Twin Peaks? Is Donna allowed to leave the influence of the Supernatural? How does the Supernatural surface? What is the culpability between BOB and his host? How will the woods effect the show from here?

Leland and BOB are in the driver’s seat this episode and everything’s a bit upside down in this spoiler-filled look into Twin Peaks Episode 15. Your host John digs into the inversions seen throughout, why the Log Lady intro might be talking about food, and how characters (do or don’t) manage their secrets. And of course there’s things to say about how BOB and his most familiar human relate to each other.
