Podcast From Another Place

It's finally here, the end as we know it of Podcast From Another Place... only to return again sometime in 2017. Stevil, Drex, Dustin and DemiGod Rob go through the final piece of the Twin Peaks pie, Fire Walk With Me gives more questions than Gordon Cole's mother's sister's girl Lil can even give us clues for. Together the guys try to dissect the dark film as much as they can wrap their head around it and wrap up the series of Twin Peaks as we know it today. They also give their thoughts on what the new series has in store when it hits Showtime. Thanks to everyone for listening to this series encompassing podcast and be sure to tweet us! We'll see you in the trees!

This is the penultimate episode of Podcast From Another Place until in new series starts in....... 2017, we think? Stevil, Drex, Dustin and DemiGod Rob guide you through the final episode of the series and Stevil even breaks down, in detail, the final showdown in the Black Lodge with Agent Cooper. The guys say farewell to Lucy in the first scene and speculate about Ben Horne's possible future after his altercation with Doc Hayward. Is he going to be in a wheelchair alongside "Wheels" Deschanel? Also, is this a final bow for Audrey Horne? Say it ain't so! DemiGod Rob gets question about his medical knowledge again this week and even fields a Bible question. Our panel also asks for your questions and comments before the final Fire Walk With Me episode in two weeks. Message the show right here or on Twitter! Take the last episodic journey with the Podcast From Another Place! How's Annie?!?

It's time to crown a Queen and open that door to The Black Lodge! With only one episode left after this one, the guys try to figure out what cliffhangers are coming, what have already been left open and why exactly did Audrey get to skip out so much on the Miss Twin Peaks events? Dustin and Drex decide to be distracting hype guys as Stevil almost lost his calm, collected composure before the show just trying to get DemiGod Rob's sparkling voice on the air. Once that's out-of-the-way, they get down to business before getting distracted again by former Calgary Flames hockey players. Drifting off topic is to be expected, right? As Fire Walk With Me is now looming, our panel make the final decision on what cut of the film they will be covering for our finale. *SNIFF* It's only two weeks away.... The new series couldn't get here fast enough.

The guys are at the episode before the two-part finale of Twin Peaks! All four of our panel members are here as the ground work is laid for our showdown to begin. The Roadhouse is set up for the 20th anniversary of the Miss Twin Peaks pageant and the race looks pretty tight, as each of our guys have a different winner picked in their minds. The battle of wits between Agent Cooper and his crazed former partner Windom Earle hits a high note, forcing Coop to start playing off book. Is this out of desperation or will it cause Windom to make a mistake. Meanwhile, Audrey Horne has moved on from the lawman and sealed the deal with John Justice Wheeler AKA The BFZ. Only two more after this one as our episodic time is running out....

We're almost on the Black Lodge's door steps as the guys are now into the final four episodes of the second season. Without Drex this week, our panel first talks about a few recent developments and issues surrounding Twin Peaks and the upcoming series before getting to business. Meanwhile, The Miss Twin Peaks competition is getting underway, Windom Earle adds more and more great costume choices to his wardrobe and Coop may be getting that FBI swagger back, as well as something else from Annie... DemiGod Rob and Stevil are pleased to see Sam Raimi's brother Ted get a guest spot as Windom's new art project and everyone is massively perplexed to what a "monkey show" is. Seriously, Pete Martell has to be one of the most perplexing characters ever. The guys are almost ready to fire walk, only three more episodes!

After this episode the guys only have four episodes of season two left! This week love is in the air for Agent Cooper and, apparently two of the three guys can't get enough of the Ryan Adams cover album 1989. The only thing that will be able to drown it out is our panel’s Gordon Cole impressions. The age issue between Jack Wheeler and Audrey Horne is discussed as well as the fact that NO ONE SEEMS TO GO TO SCHOOL! Windom Earle shows up with another classic disguise and Shelly is a miracle worker with Gordon Cole. Drex, Stevil and Dustin (DemiGod Rob was absent for this one) ask the important questions as we head to the upcoming Miss Twin Peaks Pageant and our finale show down. We're so close!

The guys are down an Aussie in the latest episode of Podcast From Another Place, but it's great news for Dustin as Heather Graham AKA Annie is now in the Northwest Passage and Dale Cooper is absolutely infatuated right away. Windom Earle dons some questionable disguises while Donna Hayward exhibits even more questionable judgement. Billy F***ing Zane and Audrey have a James-reminiscent picnic at the lake and Harry is hitting rock bottom. The Miss Twin Peaks Pageant is mentioned, bringing us closer to the finale of season two. We also get a ridiculously awful fashion show and Dick gets in a tussle with a woodland critter. Join Stevil, Dustin and DemiGod Rob as we near the end of this iconic series!

Things are heating up in the Northwest Passage as our panel moves closer and closer to the finale of season two and our series capper (for now) Fire Walk With Me. The guys start of with addressing the casting of Amanda Seyfried in the new series and speculate to who she could be cast as. They also delve into the family history of new cast member Balthazar Getty who has previously worked with David Lynch in Lost Highway. The "No Season 3 spoilers" rule still applies. It's a big episode for the boys as two major characters exit the series today as well as the reveal of Billy F***ing Zane (that's how his name is pronounced). Dustin is getting excited for the arrival of Norma's sister, who is mentioned in this episode. So come join the guys as their almost at the end of this chapter. Definitely check this one out for Dustin's beautiful poetry reading, in the honor of Windom Earle and those three iconic beauties!

After a few weeks of dead space, the boys are back to talk about Twin Peaks! With production now underway, the guys are now podcasting about a series that's been thrust into more relevancy than it's seen in more than twenty years. It's exciting times for Twin Peaks fans! With only eight episodes remaining in the series, our panel is starting to see their more disliked storylines end and the full emergencies of new and interesting characters. The major one in question is Windom Earle with his dirty underwear onesie and his recorder. What is he prepping Leo the Lion for? The return of Albert Rosenfeld prompts a great bromance moment that the guys can relate to and how clouded is Harry's judgement when it comes to Josie Packard. All this and more on the newest episode of Podcast From Another Place!

The guys are ready to dive into episode two of the second season, this time one hundred percent less Australian, as Drex missed out on this week's fun. Good news though! DemiGod Rob is back and gives us his thoughts on that insane season opener. This week felt much shorter to the boys, after the double long episode the week before, but with David Lynch at the helm again you know some insane stuff is going down. Ben and Jerry scheme like mad and may have even plotted more murders, Audrey is trapped at One Eyed Jack's, Leo's precarious health is addressed and Lucy may have been sleeping around? Oh David Lynch and Mark Frost! Our one pure character of Lucy isn't so pure! The questions and observations come fast in this episode. Dustin wonders if Laura had a thing with the creamed corn lady, Rob is still massively grossed out by Hank's domino (how DID he get it in and out of jail?) and Steve is still putting together that conspiracy theory. So join the Podcast From Another Place for another foray into the woods of the Northern Passage. This podcast is not what it seems...  

We only have 9 episodes left of season 2 of Twin Peaks and this one's a pretty good one for Podcast From Another Place. First the guys chat about the official announcement from Showtime on Twin Peaks starting production in September and filming it like a movie. This is some exciting news! Then they move on to the episode. Windom Earle last "chess" move is analyzed by Coop and he gives Harry all the dirty details on what went down between him and his former partner. Jerry is back in town to hopefully pull Ben out of his crazy rut and we are approaching the final act of James' runaway story. So join our panel for another episode and look out for the owls! They're acting crazy this week!

Welcome to another instalment of Podcast From Another Place as The Stevil Dead, Drex, DemiGod Rob and Dustin continue through the final ten episodes of Twin Peaks second season and this is a pretty eventful episode with more White Lodge talk and a pretty thorough ass kicking. It seems like sexy times are afoot this week as multiple characters get together, as well as a brotherly twist that grosses the guys out. James's champagne etiquette is questioned, Ben Horne gets a small victory in his civil war and is Harry Truman turned on by Josie Packard's maids uniform? Where's the hat? Yes, lots went down this week, more than can possibly fit in this description and Windom Earle is oh so close! So grab your coffee and pie, we're almost at The Black Lodge!

As Drex is on vacation this week, it's just the three guys, Stevil, DemiGod Rob and Dustin as they continue into the final dozen episodes of Twin Peaks second season. The dreaded "James The Runaway" is almost nearing it's conclusion, Audrey is back on the scene and we creep closer and closer to Windom Earle. It's a significantly better episode to talk about this week on the podcast. An unfortunate death happens again in Twin Peaks leading to a seemingly outlandish accusation. The Little Nicky versus Dick Tremayne story continues as Dick gets some new information on his little buddy's past. Coop is looking at getting some property at Dead Dog Farm and Pete delivers the beginning of a limerick that we would like you, the audience to finish for us. We will read them out on the podcast in two weeks! So dig in to this next episode of our Twin Peaks companion podcast and send questions and comments to us on Twitter as well!

We're starting that dreaded "Runaway James" storyline that DemiGod Rob and Dustin have been wishing to avoid this week on the podcast. We also continue down that path of forty year old adolescent weirdness that calls herself Nadine. Are the guys the only ones who dislike this part of the series? We need people to explain James and Nadine! This episode also marks the debut of Denise Bryson, otherwise known as David Duchovny in drag. This leads the guys to a pretty serious yet informative discussion on the trans community. At Podcast From Another Place we like to educate...... and discuss James bowel problems, but educate nonetheless! Hank interrupts Ben Horne's reminiscences about the past and doesn't give him the courtesy of a feng shui, Catherine gets a new maid and Andy and Dick meet the problem child (you know, that 90s movie). All this on our new episode, check it out!

The guys are once again in the same room, encased in the middle of a heat wave, surrounded by a world on fire. Dramatic? Yes, but no worries because it is time, once again, for another installment of Podcast From Another Place with Stevil, Drex, DemiGod Rob and Dustin Collins! The show does a massive shift this week after last weeks huge episode. The wake for Leland Palmer becomes a very sentimental and reminiscent event and Coop prepares to leave Twin Peaks now that the case of Laura Palmer is closed. The show start to derail a bit for the guys with the Nadine getting enrolled in high school storyline. It signifies the beginning of the end of the series or at least the start of a large lull period (we're looking at you runaway story in the future episodes, James!). At least we still have that Windom Earle stuff coming up! Join the guys as they continue down the trail of Twin Peaks, coming to the inevitable showdown at the Black Lodge!

Welcome back to the Podcast From Another Place! Stevil, Drex, Dustin and DemiGod Rob present a massively pivotal episode of Twin Peaks together or at least until the scorching heatwave burnt away their Skype connection. Nonetheless, the guys press on through this episode filled with complete weirdness, Dutch angles and melodrama. Nothing can overshadow the incredible performance that Ray Wise gives. It's truly an amazing thing to watch. That's not all there is to this episode! Tojamura reveals a foot fetish, James gets all bunged up again and Lucy lays down the law. The guys end of their episode by hypothetically planning out a Kentucky trip. So strap on some new shoes and head back into the forest!!

The guys are very happy to be reunited in the same room again, maybe too much, but hey, it's interesting times in Twin Peaks so there's lots of room for happiness and excitement. They catch up a little with Drex's feelings on last week's episode and then jump headlong into this latest one. After the massive reveal last week Bob is now fully in control of Leland and maybe getting a little cocky about it. Ben Horne has hit rock bottom and Catherine finally rises like a phoenix from the ashes to deliver the dagger to his back. Also, Norma's mom is in town and seems to be heavily critical about everything. Hmmmmm....... The guys debate schizophrenia versus possession and the limberness of a one-armed man diving out of a window and the likely speed in which that would happen. Then the guys start talking about an invitation, not to love, but to Kentucky to maybe do a live podcast. The conversation then turns to chicken, then branding and finally Colonel Sanders. What's this show about again? So, come join the guys again for a great Leland, Mike and Bob heavy episode. NEW SHOES!!

This week the guys of Podcast From Another Place have something a little different for you. Stevil and Dustin have DemiGod Rob on the line from the interior and guest subbing in for Drex this week is Stevil's wife and co-creator of The League of Manchildren, JStebz!! They get to talk about this being her first time through the series and her general impression of the series. Then our panel gets down to the business at hand, because, wow, what a pivotal episode! Ben Horne is shaken to his very foundation as the Great Northern is under deep scrutiny from the Sheriff's Department with their Killer Bob "Barometer" Mike and then Audrey finally confronts him about One Eyed Jacks! The most horrifying scene of the entire series concludes this episode and the guys and Jen are completely baffled that it was allowed to air on primetime television.... in the 90s! Also, Rob informs us of a separate scene filmed with Richard Beymer that everyone is DYING to see! Come back and join us is the Northwest Passage again, we've got neatly arranged donuts!

The guys are one short this week as DemiGod Rob is back on the road again, but Stevil, Drex and Dustin dig right in to this episode, first dealing with that cliffhanger from last week. Are Donna and Maddy still trapped in Harold's orchid lair? Will they get out? Is there at least a bathroom for James to destroy? This episode also marks the arrival of David Lynch himself as FBI Regional Bureau Chief Gordon Cole, Coop's immediate superior. The only unfortunate thing about Cole's arrival is the news that Albert won't be returning which saddens Dustin. We also get the homecoming of Leo, to be cared for by his doting wife Shelly and "cousin" Bobby but is Leo really a vegetable or is he still extremely dangerous? For a large part this film should be noted for all the awkward hugs Ben Horne is a part of. The guys counted four, each one weirder than the one before it and wait a second.... did Leland just pocket some hair? What? Come back and join our faithful Twin Peaks fans as they journey closer to the conclusion of Laura Palmer's mystery. Let's Rock!

This week the guys actually get Skype to work for them and DemiGod Rob is able to join in on the fun from his station in the Kootenays! This makes Drex, Stevil and Dustin very happy because, as Drex puts it, Rob is the color commentator of the podcast and, oh boy, there's some color in this episode, mostly blue and off. Things are shaking up in the Northwest Passage as it's time for Coop to save the damsel in distress but is Jean Renault going to let her go without a fight? Who is this Japanese businessman who has checked into the Great Northern and where is Lucy really going? So many questions and so much murder is a foot this week! The guys give this episode to Andy because, well, he's a whole damn town, how can you deny it's not his episode? They start the ball rolling on trying to book Harry Goaz for a podcast and wish Dana Ashbrook a very happy birthday. Then they get offensive, just like every week. So join the guys again as the make their way closer to the murderer of Laura Palmer!

After a Mother's Day weekend break, the guys are all back together in the same room for a brand new episode of Podcast From Another Place. This episode is an interesting one with some plans starting in motion, a coupe of really awkward situations and a couple of Horne's employees have an eventful day, one in particular experienced his last day on earth. *GASP* Due to one of the main plots of this episode, our panel goes a bit off the rails, but, really, who can blame them. If the subjects of masturbation and Deputy Andy Brennan make you feel a little uncomfortable then, well, this episode is not for you! We'll catch you up next week (but not really, who has time for that?) The guys give a shout out to one of our listeners, who doesn't like the way we talk about Catherine Martell, but she's dead, right? Either way, the guys are playing tough and aren't scared. Things also seem to flow much better this week without James cramping up the episode this week (*nudge nudge* GET IT?) and we can all agree that Hank is just the worst kind of suck up creep and get what he deserves, even though he attempted that horrible roundhouse. Give it a listen, friends!!!

The guys from Podcast From Another Place are reunited finally, well, only for a limited time, as they dive into the third episode of season two. Lots of story being set up in the after David Lynch's amazing first couple of episodes of the season. Dustin and Drex's respective favorite characters get some great lines and motive reveals in this one, as we also get not one but four new characters entering the town of Twin Peaks, including the legendary Michael Parks as Jean Renault. Is his accent French Canadian or Cajun? The guys also get into the variations of the music themes in this episode. What do Angelo Badalamenti's tonal changes mean? Are they a subtle reminder of the character's intentions or is this being read into a bit too much. You decide! Join us again for another journey into the woods. The owls may be watching.....

After a little mini vacation between the first and second season, Podcast From Another Place is back! Stevil, Dustin and Drex continue with the extended season two premiere, but are a member short, as DemiGod Rob is away saving lives in the Kootenays. You know the place, up by ol' One Eye's... Hot on the heels of the No Lynch, No Peaks, Save Twin Peaks campaign, this episode is directed magnificently by the man himself, David Lynch. Starting with a new opening, which Drex points out, this episode starts even darker and more ominous than the first season ended and gives us way more questions. Why won't the room service old guy call an ambulance? What happened to Leland's hair and what is up with Laura's sunglasses. Stevil works the conspiracy theory for this episode, trying to make sense of it all. The panel gives a shout out to a new listener on Twitter and talk about a show premiering soon that seems very "Lynch/Frost" like. Stevil got overzealous as well on this and didn't introduce anyone on the show, so you get the fun time of discerning their voices from each other. They forgot their own format. Vacations, what can we say?   Follow us on twitter @PodFAP

Podcast From Another Place returns with a summary of their thoughts on the first season of Twin Peaks as a whole and try with all their hearts to forget the looming possibility of  no Twin Peaks in 2016. Yes, it's troubling times for this show. While Drex starts preparing ending the podcast, DemiGod Rob is holding optimism that the battle is not yet lost. Dustin is forced to be valiant and defend David Lynch's Wild at Heart and the guys list their favorite Nicolas Cage movies. What show are we on? Stevil poses the questions our twitter follower(s) sent and, again, everyone is still trying to figure out what show to tackle next. There is some actual Twin Peaks talk in there as well, we promise! Follow Podcast From Another Place on Twitter: @PodFAP

Stevil, Drex, DemiGod Rob and Dustin bring you a huge episode this week, the finale of the first season of Twin Peaks and what a eventful episode it is! The guys give some shout outs to friends, both on Twitter and on Reddit, and discuss what other show they would be interested in tackling after they finish Twin Peaks. The answer may shock you. As for what's going on in the Northern Passage, it's busy times. Hank appears to be doing dastardly deeds all over the city, Bobby and Leo have a pretty final confrontation, Leland crosses a pretty big line and then there's that shocking final moment. Join the Podcast From Another Place as they celebrate the last episode of an amazing season one and throw us some questions on Twitter @PodFAP for our season wrap up episode next week!

Our panel is all back together for Podcast From Another Place, as DemiGod Rob rejoins Stevil, Drex and Dustin for another episode. He tells us of his near death story of heading up to the West Kootenays. It will make you think twice about driving on the highway in a snow storm! So, when the show left off a naked Audrey was in Coop's bed. Does the want outweigh the need? That's not even the beginning of the questions posed for this episode. Is Lucy knocked up? What does Waldo the Myna bird know? Is James ever going to be "regular" again? The guys chat about Audrey's amazing ability to discover hiding places, Coop having all the right skills to be the greatest gambler and how did Hank smuggle that domino into jail? You're going to put that think in your mouth too? Eeeeeewwwwwww! Order yourself up a malt from the Great Northern room service and meet us at the gazebo.... bandstand...... rotunda.....whatever.

Podcast From Another Place reconvenes with Stevil, Drex and Dustin, DemiGod Rob is out in the Kootenays near One-Eyed Jack's doing some "recon", and plans are being put in motion in Twin Peaks and, more notably, at the Great Northern. Coop is in a foul mood after being awaken by rowdy Icelanders, Audrey is using her feminine wiles to get what she wants and Shelley and Leo's marriage experiences a little gun-play. Our panel breaks down the cryptic messages and information given in the episode, from Dr. Jacoby's session with Bobby Briggs to the insane ramblings of the Log Lady and her non-judgemental log. Stevil also educates Drex on a rather adult event. So you better grab a cold beer for Leo, snack on Heppa's leg of lamb and dig into this episode now and don't worry, the owls can't see you in here!

The investigation gets deeper on this episode of Podcast From Another Place and Drex is back, but DemiGod Rob is sidelined by illness. Laura Palmer's funeral is over and it's the morning after the wake. New alliances are being formed, plans are being made and subterfuge is afoot in the town of Twin Peaks. The guys talk about the calm criminality of Benjamin Horne and why exactly "Little Elvis needs a bath." Andy proves himself to be far less than a model police officer and our panel gets a total kick out of the shooting range male bonding scene and how deep Hawk is. So don't just stand there, sucking on a domino like a freshly paroled creep, check out the episode now! Follow us on Twitter!

It's episode four and the guys are down an Aussie this week. Today we enter an emotion-filled Twin Peaks in the midst of a tender time. It's the day of Laura Palmer's funeral and everyone is feeling odd, maybe a little less quirky on this occasion. Some characters cross themselves off of the suspect list, while one in particular digs even more of an incriminating hole. Our panel brings The Muppets to the conversation, as well as James' possible bowel obstructions, and how many funerals has Leland messed up in his life? So grab a drink from your tiki bar and get ready for the sound of maple syrup meeting ham! Follow us on Twitter!

Happy Twin Peaks Day! It's time for more from the Northwest Passage, as Steve, Drex, Rob and Dustin bring you episode three. The guys run down episode two of the series (technically it's episode three of Twin Peaks. It's confusing.), but start by giving a shout out to listener Adam and Steve is seeing Twin Peaks actors pop up on other series. We get some more of that deeply weird Frost/Lynch writing as super human strength, Tibetan investigation techniques and creepy forest meetings drive this amazing episode. Then, there's that first visit to the Black Lodge. Let's rock! Follow us on twitter

Steve, Rob, Drex and Dustin are back for the second episode of Podcast From Another Place.  Today we're running through the first episode after the pilot, 'Traces to Nowhere' and the development of the cast. We answer a question from Twitter follower, @missytwinpeaks and marvel at the town's budget allocated for donuts.  We get to know the quirks of the cast better, Nadine's 4am epiphany for silent drapes, Donna and James' romance blooms in an instant and we find out that Twin Peaks' darling may not have been as perfect as she seemed.  Will we ever know what the Log saw that night?   Follow us on Twitter: @podFAP

Welcome to the first episode of Podcast From Another Place, hosted by Steve, Drex, Demigod Rob and Dustin.  In this episode we're talking about the introduction to the Twin Peaks television series, the 90 minute pilot. The mystery of Laura Palmer's death begins to unfold as we are introduced to the town of Twin Peaks, its quirky residents and the dark secrets therein. Join us every Tuesday night at 7pm PST for a new episode of Podcast From Another Place on The League of Manchildren.
