This week on the Damn Fine TV podcast…

We’re diving into season two, episode three of Twin Peaks, “The Man Behind the Glass.” The episode isn’t one of our faves - “Coma” is a hard act to follow, also there’s not even a hint of Bobby to be found - but there’s still plenty of strange and wonderful happenings to dissect.

Some of our biggest questions this week include: why hasn’t Harold been questioned by Coop and them? Does Emory’s camera not record sound? Why did Lucy date Dick? And what will Harry do with all those sample shoes the one-armed man left behind?

Don’t forget: we’re switching to an every-other-week release schedule for the summer months, so episode four will be out on June 11. Thanks for your understanding!

We’re joined by friend of the show and strange theory crafter, Emilia, to help us break down the events of season two, episode two: “Coma.”

You may remember Emilia’s theories from our season one recap episode, and she brings even more wild and unique ideas to the pod this time around! For example: she doesn’t trust Coop, but thinks Hank might be an alright guy after all.

The strange doesn’t stop there either, cause Jasmin doesn’t hate James in this episode and is pretty mad at Bobby. What is going on in this house?!

And for those who’ll join us, Mells makes an amazing connection to The Return in the spoiler section and blows Jasmin’s mind.

We’re chatting all about the season two premiere of Twin Peaks: May The Giant Be With You. It’s one hell of a start to the season, with cryptic clues, questionable hospital food, wild hair transformations, poetry, singing, a heartwarming vision, and lots of horror elements. We even get a scene where Donna and James aren’t the worst!

It’s possible we haven’t been giving enough credit to season two - at least the first half - and we admit as much on the show. And the spoiler section has some really fun theories this week, for those who can join us there!

It's a bonus episode! Clearly we had a lot to say when the guys from Talking Backwards joined us to cover "The One-Armed Man." There were too many gems to leave on the cutting room floor, so, here you go!

This week on the Damn Fine TV podcast…

We’re joined by artist, filmmaker, and creator of The Outsider Tarot, Bobby Abate, to chat about “The Last Evening.”

We chat a lot about the women of Twin Peaks - Laura’s presence through absence, Nadine’s inability to move forward, the never quite fully realized potential of both Catherine and Josie - and we wonder just how much sway ABC had in calling the shots for this finale. A finale, which absolutely paved the way for so much of what television would become in the decades following it.

Bobby brings a ton of insight from his background in filmmaking and all-around Lynch knowledge to the conversation, and definitely blows our minds on a few occasions! And, of course, we talk about the relationship between Tarot and Twin Peaks.

If you normally skip the spoiler section, you might want to check back in at about 90:20 to hear our special outro for the week.

We’re joined by the lovely Coral of Wholesome Peaks to chat about “Realization Time.”

The three of us crack the case of why no one noticed Audrey smoking in the closet, but we’re still fairly stumped on why tying a cherry stem in your mouth is considered sexy.

We had a lot of thoughts on Ed and Coop’s undercover disguises, the creepiness of Waldo, and where Jacoby’s office/possibly also his home could be in the giant small town of Twin Peaks.

Plus, we share some details about our upcoming coverage of the show, and Mells has some breaking news you can hear all the way at the end in a little outtake. (99:10)

WE GOT ANOTHER ONE! Dave from The Center Cut is officially a Peaks Freak! We were all stunned to hear the news - including Dave’s co-host, Michael - but obvi also pleasantly surprised. He even likes the Log Lady! It’s a great day in Damn Fine history.

As always, the guys from The Center Cut brought their A game, and we had an awesome chat about episode six: “Cooper’s Dreams.” We theorize on why Audrey’s crying, why Shelly’s salon hair disappears, and we also get really into the logistics of Flesh World, So, if you’ve ever wanted a podcast that really dives into the  ins and outs (gross?) of FW, this episode is for you!

You’re gonna need a full pot of damn fine coffee and a coupla slices of pie for this epic crossover with the guys from Talking Backwards: A Twin Peaks Podcast! We were thrilled to have Dave, Patrick, and Tyler join us for this episode, and, wow bob wow, did we have a lot to say.

We chat llamas vs. alpacas, “traditional” gender roles, our love for Diane Shapiro, and we get REAL hot about tracksuits. Plus, for maybe the first time ever - brace yourselves -Mells and Jasmin disagree on something! It’s a gross time in the most damn fine way.

Fair warning: Tyler was SO ready to dish on spoilers - he deserved to - and we mean like, big spoilers, so DO NOT enter the spoiler section unless you have seen up to Part 14 of The Return.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL - Mells has declared herself a Bobby girl!!! Okay, well, just for this episode, but STILL!

But wasn’t Bobby just too dreamy this week? We love how he turned Laura’s funeral upside down, calling out the people of Twin Peaks - including himself - for not doing a damn thing to help Laura when she needed it most. We also love the echoes between Bobby’s truth-telling and the secrets of the woods that Harry and the Bookhouse Boys reveal to Coop.

We dish on all of that, plus some fun behind the scenes details about Invitation to Love, some thoughts on Leland’s grieving process, and the real reason they call him “Big” Ed.
