BS With Friends!

If youuuuuuuuuu can believe it, it's a Sunday once again. Which means it's time to dive back into Twin Peaks: The Return! This week, we're covering Parts 3 and 4.

Cooper emerges from nonexistence, Mr. C enacts his plan, Wally Brando visits his parents, Dougie becomes Mr. Jackpots, and Lucy doesn't understand how cell phones work.

For next week, we're watching Parts 5 and 6.

The chills and thrills continue! Let us pour you a drink and join us! And don't worry, that only looks like blood. This week we discuss how Amazon is positioned to suck the life out of the film industry (and not in the fun spooky way), an update on the IATSE strike, the scary neo-conservative future of AT&T's media investments and so much more.

Shockingly, we still find time to discuss Ana Lily Amripour's modern staple, A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night. Which is super not divisive amongst Max and Xzy at all.

It's the beginning of the end through Xzy's first trip to Twin Peaks. This week, we're starting our coverage of The Return with Parts 1 and 2! 

The Giant gives Cooper the clues, Sam and Tracy find out what's in the glass box, Dr. Jacoby receives a delivery, Mr. C retrieves Ray and Darya, Ruth Davenport is found in her home, and The Log Lady has a message for Hawk.

Next week, we're discussing The Return Parts 3 and 4!

OOOooOOOoo! It's spooky season, y'all! Which means it's time for the 2nd annual BS with Friends! horror film month! Friend of the show, photographer, and host of The Waffle Press network, Diego Crespo, graces these spooky soundwaves for our first choice of the month. But first! Disney continues to sue everybody for all the money in the world, WB's CEO prepares to get fired but does he deserve it, IATSE goes on one of the biggest and most valiant strikes in the entertainment industry, and a genuinely terrifying look at what Snapchat considers the future of comedy. Whatever it is, is it as terrifying as Stuart Gordon's brilliant Re-Animator? Pour yourself a drink and join us as we break down this gory, brilliant, cult classic!

Before diving into Twin Peaks: The Return, Max and Xzy sit down to talk about The Missing Pieces, the 90-minute collection of deleted scenes from Fire Walk with Me. Del argues with Pete about the size of a 2x4, Philip Jeffries' adventures on the other side gets fleshed out, Leland asks Sarah where his axe is, and many more great scenes get discussed!Then it's on to production history for not just Fire Walk with Me, but the original ideas for Twin Peaks Season 3, and the development history of The Return. It's a real barnburner!Next week, we're discussing Twin Peaks: The Return parts one and two. We'll see you then.

Your friends from far and wide came together for the most joyous of occasions! It's an uncut, laugh a minute, candid film conversation with Max, Xzy, friend of the show Alex Katz, and a live studio audience. Topics include At the Mountain of Madness, Spider-Man 3, Paddington 1&2, hopefully the last of Quibi news and what's Christopher Nolan up to? All barreling towards Richard Kelly's fascinating Southland Tales. As well as special announcements for the show's future! 

 

We want to thank everyone for coming out and making our first live show so special. And to everyone, please yourself a drink and join us.

[Editor's Note: This episode extended discussions of incest, rape, drug use, and violence against women. A content warning happens at 39:04, and if that's when you need to duck out, no shame at all. We'll catch you on the next one.]It's time to cover the big one. Max and Xzy sit down for a thorough discussion of the 1992 film Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me. How does David Bowie talking about the weird folks he saw above a convenience store become one of the most important scenes in all of Twin Peaks? How does focusing on Laura Palmer's last week on Earth move the story forward? Why should you watch the film after watching the series? And just how much of a hunk is Chris Isaak? All of these questions and more get answered! Next week, it's on to Fire Walk with Me: The Missing Pieces before diving into Twin Peaks: The Return!Intro music: The Pink Room by David LynchOutro music: Theme from 'Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me' by Angelo Badalamenti

It's all come down to this, the final two episodes of Twin Peaks Season 2! 

Annie wins Miss Twin Peaks, Donna gets some closure, Leo gets trapped, Sarah Palmer has a message for Major Briggs, and Cooper follows Windom beyond the veil. 

Next week, it's on to Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me.

It's episode 69, dudes! And what a week to join your buds for yet another ride through the history of Keanu Reeves' career. But first, news! This week join in on topics such as Nolan's next project, the Mad Max cars up for auction, and the power dynamics at Paramount that are causing a deep investment in streaming over theatrical releases.

Then, it's time to get cyberpunk as all get out with 1995's Johnny Mnemonic. What makes cyberpunk truly cyberpunk? Why was this film so lambasted and garnered such a cult following? Is it worth the hate or the hype? All this discussed plus a special secret cameo and an in-depth discussion on The Matrix: Resurrections. What a week for all our fellow Keanu fans!

We're getting close to the end of Season 2, but we've gotta talk about "The Path to the Black Lodge" before we cross that bridge!Garland is kidnapped by Windom, Audrey and Jack finally have some private time together, Lana is still scheming to win Miss Twin Peaks, and Annie and Cooper have a conversation. Max and Xzy also go on a tangent about Captain Planet somehow.Next week, we're watching the last two episodes of the original series. See you at the curtain call.
