    In Part 6, we come to the end of David Lynch's 2006 masterpiece INLAND EMPIRE and attempt to put the pieces together until it all feels right.

    Jay Aaseng on working for David Lynch, INLAND EMPIRE, Twin Peaks, and more

    Today on MEANWHILE, I’m thrilled to share my talk with Jay Aaseng about his time working as David Lynch’s assistant, producing INLAND EMPIRE, playing the Drunk in Twin Peaks: The Return, as well as covering his work as a writer, director, and actor. This episode spends a lot of time diving into Inland Empire and Jay’s experience working directly with David Lynch. Plus, we get into the identity of the actors in the Rabbit suits. And while we get confirmation that during one re-shoot scene Naomi Watts and Scott Coffey are very much inside those suits, Jay drops a clue that the year was likely 2002, before the Laura Dern monologue, and so before Inland Empire!! The mystery continues… Sources: INLAND EMPIRE - David Lynch - https://www.criterion.com/films/30077-inland-empire LYNCH (one) - blackANDwhite - https://www.criterionchannel.com/lynch-one Fetch-a-Sketch - Jay Aaseng - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fetch-a-sketch/id1568920929 Apocalypse Breaker - Aaron Renfroe, Sean Oswald - https://www.audible.com/pd/Apocalypse-BREAKER-4-Audiobook/B0HFBK9W23 My Big Goblin Space Program - Scott Warren - https://www.audible.com/pd/My-Big-Goblin-Space-Program-An-Astronaut-Reincarnation-LitRPG-Audiobook/B0F8PK8F96 I Am Not a Wolf - Dan Sheehan - https://www.audible.com/pd/I-Am-Not-a-Wolf-Audiobook/B0C7XN298F Enjoying the show?
