    Night Blooming Jasmine: The Black Lodge, The White Lodge, & The Folly of Absolutes

    Happy New Year, Night People. January is a holy month for our community, marking the first anniversary of David Lynch's passing, his birthday, Bowie's birthday, and 10 years since the Black Star passed; and now, one year since the LA fires. Let us reflect. Come with me, wont you, on a journey into the unexamined shadows of the Black Lodge, and it's opposite, the White Lodge, a place where wisdom and peace reside in abundance. Are the notions of these lodges real, like a formica table? Or are we always dwelling on the thresholds of these states of being, passing through and doubling back, like threading a needle, again and again. This is a public episode.

    Night Blooming Jasmine : Annie, Belladonna Of Sadness

    Welcome back to Night Blooming Jasmine. Join me as I visit the myth of Annie Blackburn — a woman written as a narrative fix, then transformed by David Lynch into something spectral and essential. From the convent shadows to Miss Twin Peaks, Annie becomes a guide, a sacrifice, a hinge in Cooper’s fate, and an echo of older myths: Ariadne, Persephone, Psyche. Join Patreon here!

    Danny Masterson, The Black Dahlia, and the Machinery of Male Salvation - Patreon Teaser!

    ***Listen to the full episode and whole series on PATREON*** It’s 2001 in Y2K Hollywood — a world of TV stars, Maxim covers, and after-hours in the Hills. A young woman, Ashley Ellerin, is murdered by the man who would become known as the Hollywood Ripper. Around her, a new generation of idols is rising — and one predator is hiding in the shadows, while another hides in plain sight. This episode traces the machinery that protects men like Danny Masterson — Scientology's cover ups. The Hollywood system that shields it's money makers. When the Me Too movement finally tears through decades of denial, karma's underground current finally reaches the open ocean. From Elizabeth Short to Ashley Ellerin to Chrissy Bixler, this is the Black Dahlia, and Los Angeles — a city that’s always worshipped Gods of it's own making. This is a public episode.

    Lynch & Lolita

    What does it costs to live inside a fantasy built by men? On this episode we prod that viper’s nest. David Lynch loved Kubrick’s film adaptation of Nabokov’s Lolita, so much so that he conjured his own Dolores Haze with Laura Palmer. JOIN PATREON We move between fantasy and wreckage. Between Desire, danger, and the American girl—through the eyes of genius. So put your heart shaped glasses on, pop a lolly in your mouth, and settle in. It’s about to get disturbing.

    BLACK DAHLIA 3 - THE CHAIN - PATREON TEASER

    To hear the full episode subscribe HERE The Black Dahlia murder shocked postwar America and ignited a media frenzy that reduced her to pulp headlines and grotesque speculation. The LAPD’s bungled investigation faded into silence, until the incest trial of George Hodel thrust the Dahlia’s specter back into the spotlight. In episode 3 of This Body, we trace a line from Elizabeth Short’s depersonalized body in Leimert Park through Tamar Hodel’s testimony, and into the next generation of Hollywood daughters: Michele and Chynna Phillips, Mackenzie Phillips, and Bijou Phillips. From Chinatown to Lolita, from the Mamas and the Papas to Scientology, this is a story of how Los Angeles devours its daughters, and how some live to tell the tale. This is a public episode.
