Diane: Entering the town of Twin Peaks

Saddle up and join us as we ride beyond the veil of dreams and into the vale of fairy-land, for tonight we hunt Unicorn! All we have to go on for guidance is Ridley Scott's 1985 goblin romance Legend!

Doubles, dopplegangers and tulpas are everywhere in Twin Peaks. What does all this duplication mean? Is Twin Peaks a sylvan glade or noir city? What is the Dweller on the Threshold? Is doubling he most important aspect of the show?  Title music by Strangers From Birth (https://strangersfrombirth.bandcamp.com/) Subscribe, rate and review on itunes apple.co/2qDwBOy We are creating additional content for Patreon.

Tonight the Shadow Trap REALLY sucks because we're tackling our biggest beast to date - it's none other than the patron of impalation: Dracula! In order to track him down we are going to follow the heavily-accented breadcrumbs dropped by Coppola's 1992 classic Bram Stoker's Dracula!

Our theme is THE WOODS. We trace the many meanings of the forest in fiction, and explore the power it holds over the sylvan community of Twin Peaks.  Title music by Strangers From Birth (https://strangersfrombirth.bandcamp.com/) Subscribe, rate and review on itunes apple.co/2qDwBOy We are creating additional content for Patreon.

It's cowboys vs aliens and you'll have to pardon our French because tonight we go chasing Giant Worms! The Valley of Perfection has a particularly nasty infestation of vermicular vermin so join us as we dig in deep with Ron Underwood's 1990 VHS classic, Tremors.

Join us as we check in with old friends, get to grips with a new timeline, and finally learn the answer to a question that has been hanging from our teeth for a quarter-century: Can you really kill a man with a box of tarantulas?

Something is coming, and we're going to catch it half-way down the chimney... So grab yourself a cold mixture of sugar syrup and carbonated water and join us - as we set the Shadow Trap and go a-hunting for Santa Claus.

In a lonely mansion, a faded star - Norma Desmond - dreams a terrible dream. It's Billy Wilder's Sunset Boulevard, a huge influence on David Lynch's work.  We discuss cinema, stardom, and glamour, and how Wilder's world relates to Lynch's filmography.  Title music by Strangers From Birth (https://strangersfrombirth.bandcamp.com/) Subscribe, rate and review on itunes apple.co/2qDwBOy We are creating additional content for Patreon.

There’s storms and the eternal stench of mischief in the air. We're setting our snares and getting lost in the land of the Goblins! Let's dance the magic dance...

This time we're baiting the Trap with fresh red meat in the hope of  enticing some werewolves! We don't know much about werewolves. All we've got to go on - luckily - is one of the greatest monster movies of the 1980s: John Landis' transatlantic creature feature An American Werewolf in London.

A place beyond your dreams. A podcast beyond your imagination. We turn our blue in blue eyes to Arrakis and discuss David Lynch's much maligned Dune. Like those plucky Fremen, we take on impossible odds and fight in Dune's defense. The Sleeper must awaken!

Welcome to The Shadow Trap, a place where we catch and keep stories, spirits, dreams... and other sorts of monsters. For our first case we are hunting Ghosts, and the trap we're loading is Jack Clayton and Deborah Kerr's The Innocents (1961).

We go back over the events of Mark Frost and David Lynch's Twin Peaks Season 3 and offer up some closing thoughts (for now).  We've reached well beyond the finish, but why does this end feels like such loss? We need to fix our hearts or die.

We're back to answer our listeners' questions about Twin Peaks Season 3.  Did David Lynch troll fans? Is Season 3 an example of late style? Most importantly, how did Dale Cooper maintain that hot bod in the Black Lodge?.
