About this episode

The episode explores the costs of living in a fantasy created by men, through the lens of David Lynch's admiration for Nabokov's 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.
