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.

This episode covers Lynch's 1999 family drama, The Straight Story, starring Richard Farnsworth as an old man who drives a riding mower across multiple states to reconnect with his ailing, estranged brother.

Every episode on Nebula is uncensored and extended, plus they drop a week earlier than YouTube. Join us next month for The Elephant Man (1980).
