Really Weird Stuff: A Twin Peaks Podcast – The Return Part Two – “The stars turn and a time presents itself.”

On episode 33 of Really Weird Stuff, we’re discussing Twin Peaks: The Return, Part Two – “The stars turn and a time presents itself.” This episode was written by David Lynch and Mark Frost, and directed by David Lynch. It originally aired May 21, 2017 on Showtime, along with Part One. This episode is best known for the return of Laura Palmer. 25 years later, she is still dead (yet she lives). Also, she’s got a new brooch and a crazy detachable face.

Special guest, Michael Hayes joins us to explore such mysteries as:

WHY doesn’t Mr. C want to get pulled back into the Lodge?

WHAT does Laura whisper to Coop?

WHO is pretending to be Philip Jeffries?

WHEN exactly CAN Coop go out?

PLUS: Some Really Weird Stuff Firsts, including awards mayhem and our guest watching the episode cold.

Paid in Puke S5E10: Fast Times/The Anniversary Party

On our series 5 finale, we’re doing a double shot of Jennifer Jason Leigh and Phoebe Cates, with Amy Heckerling’s 1982 comedy debut, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, written by Cameron Crowe, and 2001’s Mumblecore template drama, The Anniversary Party, written and directed by Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Alan Cumming. These two films are spiritual sequels, linked by JJL and Cates’ twenty year friendship. Fast Times is also Amy’s favorite movie of all time! Both of these films find a perfect balance between the realistic struggles of women in these respective places in their lives, and belly-laugh comedy. Plus hella abortions.

Two movies means we double your pleasure on Meaningful Passages and Lunchtime Polls!

Paid in Puke is taking a break but we’ll return soon with Series 6!
