In this episode, Maggie and Adam cover David Lynch's 1984 space opera, DUNE, starring Kyle McLachlan and a pug dog. It’s a bombastic, weird, confusingly paced adaptation of Frank Herbert’s classic novel. It's no Star Wars! But can we find something to love about it??

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.

Every episode on Nebula is uncensored and extended, plus they drop a week earlier than YouTube. Check out the episodes on The Elephant Man (1980) and The Straight Story (1999) here on Nebula.

Join us next month for Wild at Heart (1990).
