This is the podcast. These are the (two) friends. Drink full, and descend. The famous “Atomic Bomb” episode of The Return stands as one of David Lynch's most defining works, an “origin story” for Twin Peaks, and one of the most experimental hours ever to air on narrative television. In a rare moment of “double dipping,” Twin Peaks S2 guest Connor Ratliff joins us again to discuss this landmark episode, offering a David Lynch impression that is superior to Griffin's, which you probably thought could not be topped.

What happened to Lizzie Buehler? Who killed Bernard Singer? Why is the common denominator in these stories involvement in the milk trade?!

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: [Fiction] A Confession, published by Arjun Panickssery on April 19, 2024 on LessWrong. This morning while taking the LIRR to the city I performed first aid on a man who had been shot through the window of my carriage. "Is he going to die?" his girlfriend asked me. "We're all going to die." A long pause. "I mean - is he going to die right now?" "Probably not." Probably he didn't die. I got off at Jamaica Station while he stayed on (he was unconscious) so I don't know. I didn't want to be questioned at length as a witness since it was my day off. I continued toward a barbershop I like. There wasn't any reason for me to stay. A similar case of accidental gunfire into the train was in the news a while back. I guess also since it's Saturday the workweek is over so it likely wasn't any organized criminal act. As I was passing Kew Gardens a stranger in a torn windbreaker pulled me suddenly to the side. "I have committed a terrible crime: a murder. No one suspects me. Only you know the truth. This is my name and address." He pushed a small business card into the breast pocket of my coat and walked away. Initially I supposed that I could turn him in to the police. A few reasons presented themselves immediately. First, it could be considered morally appropriate to denounce him to the authorities for the sake of justice. Second, a naïve interpretation suggested that he wanted me to turn him in, since otherwise he wouldn't have confessed his crime to me. Third, a failure on my part to denounce him could present the possibility in the minds of concerned parties that I was his accomplice. But walking through Forest Park with disregard for the operating hours of my barbershop, I considered the opposing evidence. First, I could be exposing myself to some kind of danger or unforeseen trap. Second, I might lack the conviction for treachery. This man entrusted me - and me alone - with such a secret. Already I walked among my fellow citizens with a newfound transgressive thrill. I resigned myself to the fate of my co-conspirator, whether arrest and punishment or criminal victory, the goal and outcome of which I knew nothing Again and again I reversed my position for some hours. Such always has been the nightmare of my life with its interminable indecisiveness and hesitation. Very little new was discovered within my mind during this time, but only the relevant weights of the different reasons shifted in my brain. Halfway across the park I saw a little Pomeranian carrying a big stick, maybe five or six times his own length. It pleased him very much to carry it with him. But I pitied him for his ignorance because I knew that it would never fit through his doorway. His master was dressed for work and held a phone to his ear to argue about some investment that frustrated him. At length he exclaimed that he didn't know why he even continued to work after the success he has had. My new companion and I passed some chess hustlers seated behind their tables. I don't think they usually have chess hustlers at Forest Park. But there were three older men behind their chessboards smoking cigarettes and occasionally defeating passersby and collecting small bills. Our dog-walker was interested in a match but soured when he discovered that the hustlers didn't want to bet on the outcome of the game. Instead they wanted to be paid $5 for a single round of speed chess regardless of outcome. It's the same in Manhattan. But their would-be customer complained. "If we pay you no matter what, what does it matter to you whether you play any good?" he protested. The old man behind the chessboard only replied, "The same thing could be said about your life." Profound! With the dog-walker dismissed I realized a potential solution to my problem. The main obstacle in my mind was that I might be bound by some ethical ru...

We talked about meeting our new boss, Ryan Hurley. He said he's going to take the LIRR in and then the subway. Dua Lipa is going to host SNL and be the musical guest on May 4. So she has to be in NYC and the morning show at WNEW owes us a Dua Lipa guest spot. C-lo returns for his final update of the morning, but first the Jets have new uniforms. They look just like the old uniforms according to Jerry, Al and Eddie. C-Lo has the sounds from yesterday's Knicks game as they are now the number two seed. Scottie Scheffler won the Masters and Tiger Woods ended up having a terrible weekend. The Moment of The Day involves Darryl Strawberry not looking like ‘a heart attack guy' according to Al. In the final segment of the show, the Sixers unveiled an Allen Iverson statue that is quite small.

Hour 1 Boomer is out today as he's getting a colonoscopy, so Jerry is in for him. We start with the Knicks, getting the number two seed in the NBA playoffs. They will play the winner of the Sixers/Heat play-in game. Jalen Brunson really should be in the running for MVP. There isn't a team in the East that the Knicks can't beat. C-Lo is here for his first update of the day and starts with the sounds from the Knicks win against the Bulls. Gio wonders what C-Lo's strategy will be with the new program director. The Yankees lost to the Guardians 8-7, but the Yanks did win the series. Anthony Rizzo is having problems in the field this year. Nestor Cortes tried some weird fake delivery yesterday. The Mets won their third straight series, beating the Royals yesterday. We heard from Doc Gooden as he got his number retired yesterday. Jerry said the content of the speech was weird. And Scottie Scheffler won the Masters. In the final segment of the hour, we are naming our new program director this morning and Boomer's getting a colonoscopy. A caller has some questions about the new PD. We also talked about Scottie Scheffler's last 4 PGA tour tournaments after winning the Masters yesterday.  Hour 2 Doc Gooden had his number retired at Citi Field yesterday, and Gio was happy to see he seems to be physically and mentally in a good state. Gio has done appearances with him in the past where that wasn't the case. Gio wishes it was later in the season so more people would be there. It was also the Sunday of the Masters. We also talked about places similar to Hooters. Places like Canz, Mugs & Jugs, Bazookas and Fun Bags. C-Lo returns for an update and starts with the Knicks winning yesterday and becoming the #2 seed. The Yankees lost to the Guardians but won the series. The Mets beat the Royals and won their third straight series. In the final segment of the hour, Al tries to name all of the 86 Mets that are in the picture with Gooden from yesterday.  Hour 3 We finally figured out who the other guys are in the picture with all of the 86 Mets who showed up for Doc Gooden's number retirement. A caller is happy the Knicks won't have to play the Celtics until the finals. We took a look at the odds for the NBA Championship. C-Lo returns for an update but first Gio was talking about how much of a Mets fan he was. He said after they lost the last game at Shea everything changed for him. Then Gio went to Pittsburgh. We also told stories about former Mets media relations guy, Jay Horwitz. C-Lo has some censored F-bombs that were flying all over sports broadcasts this weekend. In the final segment of the hour, our new Program Director, Ryan Hurley, joins us in studio.  Hour 4 We talked about meeting our new boss, Ryan Hurley. He said he's going to take the LIRR in and then the subway. Dua Lipa is going to host SNL and be the musical guest on May 4. So she has to be in NYC and the morning show at WNEW owes us a Dua Lipa guest spot. C-lo returns for his final update of the morning, but first the Jets have new uniforms.

Videos of women sharing stories of being assaulted on streets in Manhattan are trending on TikTok. WNYC's Giulia Heyward has more. Also, the Department of Transportation recently approved the use of longer e-cargo bikes to take the place of traditional large delivery trucks. The approved bikes are pedal-assist electric bikes that look like mini trucks and take only one person to operate. Finally, Long Island Rail Road customers are enjoying expanded service thanks to the Third Track project completed in 2022. But building that additional track to relieve one of New York's worst transit bottlenecks wasn't easy. A new report in Newsday finds that the MTA spent $20 million on projects in Nassau County that had nothing to do with the LIRR to shore up support for the project. WNYC's Sean Carlson speaks with reporters Alfonso Castillo and Darwin Yanes who broke the news.

Episode 72 Eve Wilkowitz20 year old Eve Wilkowitz's life was all coming together during the first few days of spring, 1980. She had a job she loved and a new boyfriend. Her daily commute into Manhattan from Bay Shore, Long Island was long, but Eve had plans to move into the city. Someone took all that away from her. After boarding the last LIRR train from the city to Long Island, Eve vanished. Her loved ones were frantic for three days, and their worst fears came true when she turned up dead in the backyard of a nearby home. Police turned her complicated love life upside down, and left no stone unturned.

Scherzer and Verlander are here for a very short window so you have to win now and right now the offense is not getting it done. With Jerry hosting today, Peter Schwartz is on the updates. He starts with complaining about the new LIRR schedule. ‘Franchy poured the ranchy all over the Guardians' according to Peter. Gerrit Cole gave up 2 early runs but settled in and cruised the rest of the way. The Mets lost to the Padres and Francisco Alvarez said he needs to be more disciplined at the plate. Peter went around the NHL for the locals. In the final segment of the hour, the Phillies did the first of their $1 hot dog nights. They sold 58,000 hot dogs in one night and sold the stadium out.

He floated a theory out there of the Packers paying Rodgers to not play if the trade with the Jets is not on their terms. Joe Douglas told us Rodgers will be a Jet at our live show, but he also mumbled something when the crowd was screaming so we have no idea what he said. Buzz, No Buzz: The NFL Draft for the Jets and Giants. No Buzz. Gio also told us about the times he attended the draft as a fan. Peter returns for an update and starts with the Yankees win over the Guardians and the Mets loss to the Padres. Jerry wonders what issues the Mets have with Francisco Alvarez. Jack Hughes got the record for most points in a season last night. In the final segment of the hour, Darin Ruf talked to The Athletic about the pressures of playing in New York.  Hour 3: For being one of the great players in the history of the game, Gio has zero interest in watching LeBron James. He wants him out of the playoffs as soon as possible. Gio gets more joy watching Steph Curry over LeBron. Maybe he would have liked LeBron more if he stayed in Cleveland the whole time. Peter returns for an update and starts by enjoying some Pringles dipped in ranch. In between shots of ranch, Peter has sound from the Yankees win over the Guardians and the Mets loss to the Padres. Jerry finds it odd that Gio had to book Peter's Uber. In the final segment of the hour, we remember WFAN host Rick Wolff who passed away.  Hour 4: Carlos Rodon remains on the IL for the Yankees with back stiffness. Gio has been very impressed with the home crowds at Yankee Stadium in April. If you were going on a three day trip, would you go to Nashville or Austin? We talked about hanging out with Jordan Davis when he came to lunch with us in NYC. Gio told a story about almost getting into a fight over a car after a Mets game for his mom's birthday. Peter returns for his final update of the day, but first a caller tells us that getting an Uber from MetLife is a  nightmare. In the final segment of the show, Jerry is sounding sicker and sicker as the show goes on. The Knicks playoff series against the Cavaliers starts Saturday and we give it a brief preview.
