Special #3: Fire Walk with Me—Part 1

Back to the Double R: A Twin Peaks Rewatch

Buddhist philosophy tells us that nothing exists outside causes and conditions, so what lead up to our trusted Agent Cooper pulling into the small town of Twin Peaks? Come with us, back, back, back in time, to the mysterious events that launched his investigation (and the mysterious events embedded within those events, and so on, and so on). In this episode of our pod, we dive into the first 34 minutes of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks prequel, “Fire Walk with Me.” In this installment, Jennifer inspects the interference between television and film; Damon investigates the Fat Trout Trailer Park and smells something fishy; Colin puts the FBI in the hot seat, asking if they are the perfect dream decoders; and Jonathan goes through the looking glass to the mirror-world of Deer Meadow. For the Twist, we ask if we’d fall for Agent Chet as hard as we did the black-haired fella from Philadelphia!
