Season 2 Episode  TOM CHRISTOPHERSEN

Tom Christophersen is an Australian, Sydney based, Queer performer and visual artist whom is as petrified of beautiful things and death as much as they are transfixed by them. It is primarily the car-crashing of these two themes which permeate the hyper-realistic, almost surrealistic, often dark portraits and films they produce.

Tom aims to bring focus back to portraiture that is of a level of detail it demands an intimate level of engagement from the viewer. Working almost exclusively on watercolour paper with watercolour pencil and acrylic, Tom hopes their traditional, technical approach to drawing and painting provide a fresh, immediate offering to portraiture and indeed representation of the self. The figures and themes within Tom’s work are often autobiographical and based on real life experiences and connections. Tom’s artistic intention has always been to make images that create the necessary disturbances in order to provoke permanent, positive change. Tom lives and works on the stolen Gadigal lands of the Eora Nation.

Season 2 Episode 4 KATIE JOHNSTON

Katie is a 31-year-old Texas educator and breast cancer warrior. She recently got engaged to Matt (a somewhat new member of the TP fam), who proposed to her at Spooky Empire with the help of Sherilyn Fenn! She’s been infatuated with the Twin Peaks universe for the last 13+ years, as it has appeared in the highs and lows of her life (sometimes in a serendipitous manner). Being a tattooed teacher in the South can be an anomaly, but she’s happy to forever represent Twin Peaks and what it means to her.

Season 2 Episode 4 Andy Bentley lives in upstate NY (home of the Drew Hazel mystery which inspired Mark Frost) with his dogs Luke and Leia (who you might sometimes hear say hello in the background of this podcast episode!). He is an avid action figure collector and contributes artwork to the Twin Peaks Unwrapped Podcast. He hopes to share the Twin Peaks journey at least one more time with a significant other, and I personally have no doubt he will.

Season 2 Episode 3: Sarah Begin

We discuss our love for the unknowability of Twin Peaks and how important it is to just be present in the day to day-that some things can’t and maybe shouldn’t be explained. We talk about our evolving relationships with these characters over time and the importance of the town of Twin Peaks as a consistent backdrop to the mystery of the show. And of course we talk about her awesome Twin Peaks AND Blue Velvet tattoos. Sarah Begin is a dedicated artsy witchy lover lady; specializing chiefly as an overthinker, who hopes to stray on the "beautiful golden sunshine" side of life.  Insta @daily_legacy
