About this episode
Aaaaaaand we're back so let's get to it. Jane Borden is here. Jane is the author of the book, Cults Like Us: Why Doomsday Thinking Drives America. It is everything I love in a book. It's informative, it's funny, it's about weird shit that's true and I can't recommend it highly enough. Jane Borden, coming right up.
Mike Reiss is here! Mike is an old pal of mine. Incredible, smart, kind and funny gentlemen. One of the original Simpsons writers, he goes back to season… one. If that's good enough for you. He is also, a world traveller, although he doesn't really want to be, and he talks about it at length in his new Substack, which you can get, called Now I've Seen Everything. Mike Reiss ladies and germs. You're gonna love it.
True Tales From Weirdsville takes us into the second part of our story of David Lynch through the lens of his magnum opus Twin Peaks. This segment cover the fascinating period from the height of his and the show's fame to their mutual, absolute, rock-bottom. It's the story of Hollywood, of America itself, I tell you! From the top of the heap to the bottom of the barrel. From the belle of the ball to the bum on the bench, from the homecoming queen… to a dead body, wrapped in plastic.
