Initially posted Mar 9, 2023 on YouTube under the title "Work, Play, and Creativity (with Scott Ryan)" Description: Scott Ryan (BlueRoseMag.com) wrote his first book at 8 years old and has been creating ever since. A cultivator of ideas - his own and the writers’ he publishes - Scott is rarely without a project, a deadline, or a laugh. I had a great time chatting with Scott about family, work, creativity, and his latest book, "Lost Highway: Fist of Love."

Initially posted in late 2022 I think under the title "Seeing a dream through to the end"

Initially posted Oct 25, 2022 on YouTube under the title "A Call for Help: John Thorne on the art of analysis" Description: John Thorne answers the call and helpfully shares how he approaches challenging texts. We discuss John’s newest book (http://tiny.cc/d270vz), a 300+ page interpretive review of “Twin Peaks: The Return” (2017), and even non-viewers of Twin Peaks will find value in John’s mindset and approach to analysis. It was a true pleasure talking with one of my favorite writers!

Initially posted Mar 14, 2022 on YouTube under the title "Passion, Craft, and the Pleasures of Doing Your Own Thing" Description: A chat with artist Jeremiah Beaver (Take the Ring) about his craft. If you like Twin Peaks, you've likely admired his video essays and wondered how certain elements or ideas were accomplished. Jeremiah's an interesting guy, and this peek behind the curtain will likely inspire and motivate you to keep (or start) doing your own thing! WATCH "Talk About Judy •...

Featuring John Thorne and Tamler Sommers. These guys are solid gold: synergistic in agreement and disagreement. After answering some excellent questions about his own "Ominous Whoosh" theories, John adds to Tamler's hypothesis in-progress. This was a thrilling discussion for me! Highlights (and don't miss the book preview at the end) include: 1:29 - Books that’d be cool to write 7:36 - The reality of Las Vegas in Twin Peaks: The Return 9:44 - The reality of Dougie (pre- and...

I'm still thinking about Tamler's ideas and questions! Tamler Sommers is an author/philosopher ("Why Honor Matters"), a podcaster ("Very Bad Wizards"), and best of all a Twin Peaks dad. Please enjoy: 1:01 - A decade-plus of podcasting 4:10 - Tamler's deep dives into Lynch's works 7:49 - Some current thoughts on The Return and "The One" 11:08 - Appreciating the r/FindLaura venture 14:57 - Sharing (and obsessing about) Twin Peaks with loved ones 20:06 - Nadine's journey and endpoint 27:12 - Who...

Twin Peaks inspires the creativity in each of us, and for many, the desire to create becomes a need. Here, Tommy Jones and I explore the joys and risks of entering the podcast and video-essay landscape, including the huge endeavors such projects can be. Join me in wishing him and his wife the best wherever the winds may blow.

Excerpted from our recent chat “Twin Peaks: It’s Fictional & Personal”

Josef is a filmmaker, a musician, and (like Hanuman, baby!) a good friend. This conversation was a great pleasure and a refreshing reminder that our public thoughts are also personal.

While these would make terrible "Twin Peaks Trivia" questions, they are great for the car.

For me, the value in a good question is not necessarily its answer but its ability to spark new thoughts. Hopefully, some of these will do just that. Thanks for listening.

Thanks for playing along!

As usual, I have way more questions than answers. I love that about Twin Peaks.

Part 2 of I don't know how many . . . tbd. I hope one or two of these questions brings you some pleasure, pain, or a nice combination of both.
