Compliment to my other podcast ’the munchurian candidate’ I am here for a bit of fun less reaction and more just me talking about culture, politics but MAINLY reviewing Entertainment, Film & TV things I love in general and less of the dealing with the darker side and the hatred of the real world. Instead in this podcast I want to explore story telling and fun things that don’t really advise one about politics but instead is more a fun personal blog :) thanks for listening!THE SOUNDTRACK: Yub Nub is the victory chorus of the Ewok’s from 1982’s masterpiece Return of the Jedi. Vibe.At times when hope is lost, I put it on to remind me little hairy guys can defeat evil empires - I love a David & Goliath story. I am a bit geeky, a bit political, a bit philosophical...when I say ’ a bit’ I mean totally! - I am 40ish and I have a head full of ideas needing somewhere to go I can no longer keep them all in my head. I want to know everything, to grow but never age, to dodge bullets, know when ’it’s a trap’ every time... I try to predict the future as accurately as possible, this is why Sci-Fi is a big part of most enlightened folks indulgences. Randomness is logical like a bad version of Spock I am logically in pursuit of happiness, life and liberty... largely; weed, movies and girlfriends in my book. ’Storytelling’ I prefer to call this activity... thing we’ve done round camp fires now go on here in podcasts.Let us be mindful of the future, the past and making choices within the now with the intent of benefiting, of uplifting, of building back better our actions, our homes, and of others. I hope for listeners to be lifted up and not alone, feeling connected is essential I think since this new revolution in communication I am benefitting by speaking and forming thoughts and ideas live in the moment - I hope for it to be stimulating, triggering, provocative and at times possibly in bad taste.Content: Reviews, Comment, Ideas, Business, Politics & Economics - Storytelling & literature for Peasants like me.

David Keith Lynch, born on January 20, 1946, in Missoula, Montana, was an artist, filmmaker, and visionary whose work defied categorization. Known for his ability to blend the surreal with the everyday, Lynch crafted a cinematic style that pushed the boundaries of storytelling, creating worlds that were both deeply unsettling and profoundly beautiful. From his early days as an aspiring painter to his rise as one of the most celebrated directors of his time, Lynch's career was a testament to his relentless creativity and unique perspective on art and life.Lynch’s childhood was shaped by frequent moves due to his father’s work as a research scientist for the U.S. Department of Agriculture. These relocations exposed him to a variety of landscapes and communities, experiences that would later manifest in his work. His upbringing in a traditional American household, contrasted with his innate curiosity about the strange and uncanny, laid the groundwork for his artistic voice. As a young man, Lynch aspired to be a painter, enrolling at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. His pursuit of art eventually led him to Europe, where he intended to study under expressionist painter Oskar Kokoschka. However, his time abroad was short-lived, as he quickly realized his connection to the European art scene was tenuous, and he returned to the United States.Back in the U.S., Lynch found his footing at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia. It was here that he began experimenting with film, discovering a passion for moving images. His first foray into filmmaking was a short project that captured the intersection of his painterly instincts and a newfound interest in storytelling. The bleak, industrial setting of Philadelphia also left an indelible mark on him, inspiring much of the atmospheric tension and haunting visuals seen in his later work.In 1977, Lynch released his first feature-length film, Eraserhead. The film, a surrealist horror, was unlike anything audiences had seen before. Shot in black and white, it told the story of a man navigating a nightmarish world filled with grotesque imagery and disturbing soundscapes. The film’s bizarre narrative and unsettling aesthetic earned it a cult following, establishing Lynch as a filmmaker unafraid to challenge conventions. Eraserhead was not just a film; it was an experience, one that set the tone for the rest of his career.Lynch’s next major project, The Elephant Man (1980), showcased his ability to balance his avant-garde tendencies with mainstream appeal. The film, a biographical drama about Joseph Merrick, a severely deformed man in 19th-century London, was both critically acclaimed and commercially successful. It received eight Academy Award nominations, including Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay for Lynch. The film's emotional depth and visual storytelling demonstrated Lynch's versatility and cemented his reputation as a serious filmmaker.In 1986, Lynch released Blue Velvet, a neo-noir film that delved into the dark underbelly of suburban life. Starring Kyle MacLachlan, Isabella Rossellini, and Dennis Hopper, the film explored themes of innocence, corruption, and the duality of human nature. Blue Velvet was polarizing at the time of its release, but it has since been hailed as a masterpiece, often cited as one of the greatest films ever made. Its haunting imagery and enigmatic characters became hallmarks of Lynch's style, and the film's success further solidified his place in cinematic history.Lynch's foray into television came in 1990 with the creation of Twin Peaks, a series that redefined what TV could be. Co-created with Mark Frost, the show followed the investigation into the murder of Laura Palmer in the small town of Twin Peaks. Combining elements of mystery, horror, and soap opera, the series captivated audiences with its quirky characters and surreal twists. Twin Peaks became a cultural phenomenon, earning Lynch a legion of devoted fans and influencing countless TV shows that followed.Lynch’s work continued to evolve with films like Wild at Heart (1990), which won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, and Lost Highway (1997), a psychological thriller that further explored his fascination with fragmented narratives and dream logic. In 2001, Lynch released Mulholland Drive, a film that began as a failed TV pilot but transformed into one of his most celebrated works. The neo-noir mystery, starring Naomi Watts and Laura Harring, was a labyrinthine exploration of identity, desire, and the darker side of Hollywood. The film earned Lynch the Best Director award at Cannes and an Academy Award nomination, cementing its status as a modern classic.Beyond film and television, Lynch was a prolific visual artist, musician, and writer. His music albums, including Crazy Clown Time and The Big Dream, showcased his eclectic tastes and experimental approach to sound. His paintings, photographs, and multimedia installations were exhibited in galleries worldwide, reflecting his fascination with industrial landscapes and abstract forms. Lynch’s artistry extended to his personal life, where his commitment to Transcendental Meditation played a significant role. Practicing meditation since the 1970s, he credited it with unlocking his creativity and maintaining his mental clarity. He even founded the David Lynch Foundation, which promotes meditation as a tool for personal growth and stress reduction.Lynch’s personal life was as multifaceted as his work. Married four times, he had four children, including Jennifer Lynch, a filmmaker in her own right. His relationships and experiences often informed his art, providing glimpses into the man behind the enigmatic films. Despite his fame, Lynch remained a private and introspective individual, focusing more on his work than on the trappings of celebrity.In the later years of his life, Lynch faced health challenges, including a diagnosis of emphysema. The condition, attributed to his lifelong smoking habit, impacted his mobility and ability to work on set. However, Lynch’s creative spirit remained undiminished. He continued to explore new projects, collaborate with musicians, and share his thoughts through online platforms. His commitment to his craft and his determination to innovate were unwavering, even as his physical health declined.On January 16, 2025, Lynch passed away at the age of 78 due to complications from emphysema. His death marked the end of an era for avant-garde cinema and left a void in the world of art and storytelling. Tributes poured in from fans, colleagues, and artists worldwide, celebrating his contributions to film and his lasting impact on culture.David Lynch’s legacy is one of fearless creativity and unyielding vision. His films, characterized by their surreal imagery and complex narratives, challenged audiences to look beyond the surface and embrace the mysteries of life. His ability to merge the ordinary with the extraordinary created a body of work that continues to inspire and provoke thought. The term "Lynchian" has entered the cultural lexicon, signifying a style that defies convention and captures the beauty and terror of the unknown. As an artist, director, and thinker, Lynch’s influence will resonate for generations, ensuring that his work remains as vital and captivating as ever.
