  • David Lynch's Wild at Heart
    Sep 4 2024

    In this episode, Maggie and Adam cover David Lynch's 1990 road movie Wild at Heart, the story of Sailor and Lula. We're finally really getting into the Lynchy stuff.

    LynchPins is a David Lynch-themed podcast covering a different David Lynch film each month, from least-Lynchian (The Straight Story) to his most "Lynch" work (Inland Empire?? Eraserhead??). Hopefully we can make Lynch's work more accessible to those who've been too intimidated to get into him, but there's also plenty here for the Lynch superfan (you know who you are, you weirdo). Hosted by Maggie Mae Fish and Adam Ganser.

    // Content/trigger warning--nudity, sex scenes; discussions of abortion and sexual assault throughout this episode.

    Every episode on Nebula is uncensored and extended, plus they drop a week earlier than YouTube.

  • David Lynch's DUNE
    Jun 26 2024

    Check out Maggie starring in Jessie Gender's new sci fi thriller IDENTITEAZE, only on Nebula! Sign up here: https://go.nebula.tv/lynchpins

    In this episode of LynchPins, Maggie and Adam cover David Lynch's 1984 space opera, DUNE, starring Kyle McLachlan and a pug dog. It’s a bombastic, weird, confusingly paced adaptation of Frank Herbert’s classic novel. It's no Star Wars! But can we find something to love about it??
