Creative Destruction Podcast

What would you do if you switched places with your sister? In this movie, there's much more table dancing than you'd expect.  Listen to Hannah and Cameron talk about the rivalries between siblings, the unrealistic portrayal of teaching, the unbearable parents, and more in this episode. 

Susie Q is a movie about a ghost who helps a kid start playing basketball again after he helps her as the whistleblower for a huge real estate scam in a small town in Washington State.  Cameron and Hannah discuss the five stages of grief, the bizarre narrative choices of the filmmakers, and the unintentionally hilarious scenes of this 1996 made-for-TV movie. 

Hannah and Cameron announce the focus of their new season of Creative Destruction, and while it maintains a focus on TV programming, the vibes will be very different.  This season, it's a Hannah's pick. 

The grand finale not only of Twin Peaks, but of this season of Creative Destruction Podcast. Where do we leave all of our characters? Were our questions answered? Is this a good finale? 

How many people can fit in Sheriff (Frank) Truman's office? Is there a better use of old footage in the history of cinema than the use of it in this episode? Is Jeffries friend or foe? What happens in the next episode?

Coop IS the FBI, Dougie leaves our airwaves, Diane is a tulpa, Richard Horne exploded on a rock, and Chantal and Hutch had an American experience. 

Dougie got zapped! Mr. Todd is dead (and Roger)! Philip Jeffries returns...kind of. Norma and Big Ed are tying the knot after all these years, and the Steven subplot is...really bad?

Diane and Dougie are related?! What's a tulpa? Andy was chosen by the Fireman? James is a...security guard? For the Great Northern? Lissie is a terrible lip syncher! 

Is Dougie's story over? Will Audrey ever actually GO to the Road House? Can James still hit those high notes? Is Mr. C the greatest arm wrestling champion of them all? Can Norma really be a giant sellout? Will Nadine and "Dr. Amp" fall in love? Hannah and Cameron are trying to get to the bottom of it! 

How long does it take for a French lady to leave the room? Audrey returns with a sleepy husband we can all relate to. The reveal of the Blue Rose, a touching story from Ben Horne, and the sad reality of Sarah Palmer. 

Gordon Cole sees the woodsmen, Detective Macklay gets a surprise, Shelly and Bobby try to be parents, the Twin Peaks police department reads a map, and the Double R Diner experiences a public shooting. 

Is Dougie actually hot? Are the Mitchum brothers too mean to Candie? Where are all the friends? Join Hannah and Cameron for another conversation about Twin Peaks. 

After the abstract bonanza of part 8, we are given episode so focused on plot that we don't really know how to approach it analytically. Lots of different police investigations are happening between Vegas, the FBI, and the town of Twin Peaks, and we're here to figure out if we're getting any closer to a solution. 

The bomb explodes, BOB is born, Nine Inch Nails performs, and Hannah falls asleep.

Lynch and Frost hit us with the meatiest episode yet in terms of plot. Hannah finally gets her wish and meets Diane, we see some old dudes talk on Skype, and we get updates on some of our favorite characters! 

A terrifying car accident, Harry Dean Stanton, a cool coin trick, and the nature of how media consumption is changing in the era of streaming. A packed episode! We get philosophical! 

Cameron and Hannah talk about this 'tweener episode of The Return, where seemingly nothing happens, but at the end of the day...a car exploded and an unexpected Ghostbuster made a cameo. Is Amanda Seyfried a good fit for the Twin Peaks universe? All that and more in this week's episode. 

Hannah laments Dougie, but Cameron welcomes him with the most open of arms. Who will win the ultimate showdown, Hannah's pragmatism or Cameron's love of odd maximalism? 

Hannah and Cameron fight over whether or not this episode is HOT or NOT, they talk about the introduction of the polarizing Dougie Jones, the impulse to like or dislike something based on preconceived notions, and how to live in the weird structures Frost and Lynch have created for this season.

Hannah and Cameron talk about the Red Room, the Arm's glow-up moment, Mr. C's big plan, the return of James, and how much easier the show is to follow than Hannah remembered.
