Show Notes
Twin Peaks: The Return, Part 5, "Case files." This time out Dan and Eric discuss the fifth part of what might possibly be David Lynch's Magnus Opus, Twin Peaks: The Return. Of course, for an artist who has released a succession of masterpieces that is a tall order. But who says we have to rank everything? Who was it? Anthony Fantano? This week we talk about the inspiration behind Bushnell Mullins, the statue in the plaza outside Lucky 7 Insurance, how a fish got in a percalator, and more. Directed by David Lynch and written by Mark Frost & David Lynch. Sources:

Today on MEANWHILE, I’m thrilled to share my talk with Jay Aaseng about his time working as David Lynch’s assistant, producing INLAND EMPIRE, playing the Drunk in Twin Peaks: The Return, as well as covering his work as a writer, director, and actor. This episode spends a lot of time diving into Inland Empire and Jay’s experience working directly with David Lynch. Plus, we get into the identity of the actors in the Rabbit suits. And while we get confirmation that during one re-shoot scene Naomi Watts and Scott Coffey are very much inside those suits, Jay drops a clue that the year was likely 2002, before the Laura Dern monologue, and so before Inland Empire!! The mystery continues… Sources:
