After Fire Talk with Me left me in the lurch with no resolution episode following part 18, this podcast is everything I wanted and more. If you can forgive some over-modulated audio in the first season, the hosts offer great insights and deep discussions informed by a love of Lynch, literature, and introspection. I replay certain parts because they have been blowing my mind and deepening my appreciation of The Return.

There’s a lot of great podcasts for twin peaks freaks like myself, but this is in the upper tier. They don’t get lost in puzzle solving. Instead, they drill down into analysis of — and cultural references IN — the show, while also dabbling in related subjects (physics, myth, religion). One would think it might be hard to come up with episodes when you aren’t doing a rewatch, but these are great topics with full and interesting discussion.

Hi Guys, love the in depth discussion of season 3. Lynch and Frost certainly succeeded in creating something that we can’t stop talking about! Please keep it up

I really appreciate what JB brings to the TP conversation, which is like a spiritual optimism and a passing knowledge of Eastern ethical teachings (needed to understand the work of Lynch & Frost). John is of course the OG. Loved every minute so far. Please do more!! Here are some topics I think would be ripe: (1) Technology (magic phones & hearing aids) (2) the divided self (3) coordinates & maps (4) Doubles (5) the Zone and Zones

This is a great podcast for after you’ve watched all three seasons of the show and the movie, read theories, and been through the show multiple times episodically. It is a deeper dive into different aspects of the TP world, and it is a podcast that knows and appreciates that its audience has already been pondering for years and is ready for this approach.

An extraordinarily well presented, deep DEEP dive into Twin Peaks: The Return focusing on specific themes throughout the season. Great onsite and conversations between the hosts. One of the best Peaks Podcasts specifically focusing on The Return.

Absolutely love this podcast and love hearing both of these TP experts speak their thoughts on this beautiful piece of art. Can not wait for more, hope it’s soon!!

Great podcast...

John Thorne is a legend in the world of TWIN PEAKS fandom. He knows the show inside and out. JB Minton has written a book on Season 3 and speaks eloquently about how the show has affected him personally. With so many so-so TWIN PEAKS podcasts floating around, this is a breath of fresh air!

Thanks for doing this. Just discovered. Keep it up!

So glad you two joined forces. Congratulations on a fantastic show.

A podcast about Twin Peaks hosted by John Thorne — that’s the easiest 5-star rating possible

What I appreciate most about this podcast is the approach of the two hosts to discussing Twin Peaks: The Return. In my opinion, it was not a revival piece, a nostalgia exercise or a puzzle show. Josh and John understand that it is the work of an artist (or artists) and that the inconsistencies and perplexities were designed to incite discussion and that this ongoing conversation between the work and its audience is perhaps the most fascinating part of experiencing it. Their first episode was about the baggage that we brought into the Return, which I thought was the perfect starting position, because of all the expectations that people brought into this work and how it colored their reactions to the work. I’m sure that this conversation will remain lively.
