Lucky
This week we have our final movie in this section, Lucky. It’s another acting role from David Lynch but it’s really Harry Dean Stanton who carries the movie is a lovely sendoff to a great actor.

Becoming Jane
This week we try to learn more about Jane Austen herself and watch the first of two biopics we have on the docket, Becoming Jane. Focusing on her early life and heavily romance oriented, we found the movie lacking overall.

Short and Sweet Check-in
This week we were running behind and so decided to forgo our scheduled recording for a quick check-in. We catch-up on what we have been up to and take a breather before we come back next week with a regular episode.

The Fablemans
This week we are watching a movie that features David Lynch as an actor. The Fablemans is by Steven Spielberg and is about his life. David Lynch makes a cameo at the end as legendary director John Ford and is delightfully iconic.

Metropolitan
This week we are covering our second Whit Stillman movie, his first, Metropolitan. This movie is listed as a modern adaptation of Mansfield Park even though it really isn’t. It does however talk about the novel and works with some of its themes, which leads to us having a lot to talk about.

Customer Reviews
Love this show.
Love the show and love their dynamic. I was expecting it to start with one Austen fan and one Lynch fan but Maya was the fan of both and Christian was the newcomer to both. The show is a fun not too serious look at both subjects in depth but they down drown you with minutiae. My only complaint is the audio levels are not the most consistent but they have rereleased a few episodes with improved audio as they became more experienced. There are a lot of Twin Peaks podcasts and Jane Austen podcasts but this is I’m pretty sure the only one that does both. Their dynamic is what makes doing both work without feeling jarring or forced. 5/5 -Blake
Came for the Austen, but now curious about Lynch!
As an avid Austen reader and lover of anything period drama, I’ve so enjoyed this podcast, and it’s entertained me through many a long drive! I’d never watched anything David Lynch before this, but am now easing into a couple of his works out of sheer curiosity after listening to about all the Austen related episodes :)
Wonderful
Just recently discovered this podcast and am already in love! I’m a Stitcher user, and for some reason there are only 4 episodes of this show on Stitcher, but this podcast is worth using a second app for, that’s how much fun it is! Never would have thought to combine Austen and Lynch but it really works wonders seeing their work juxtaposed like this. High recommend!
