A Conversation with David Lynch 

"I went into the dumpsters behind Bob's' lmao Lynch is something else

"I went into the dumpsters behind Bob's"....well that didn't trigger any horrible images for me (a combination of BOB and the thing behind Winkies). Thanks for this, always great to hear David interviewed.

Living legend in its truest form. Long live David Lynch!! He is such an inspiration.

how can this video have 32K views and less than 1K likes? Lynch is superb always, one of the best people to ever walk the earth.

Clicked to hear philosophies on filmmaking from the greatest hair in the business. Within three minutes, I'm making mental notes on "the perfect chocolate milkshake"

I love David Lynch! His expressions are so simple and to the point and he has such passion about everything!

I really love listening to him, he makes me smile.

There are things I love as much as I love David Lynch, but nothing I love more.

Speaking of bats. I, with my family (wife and two son's - pre teen) visited Carlsbad Cavern and stayed to watch the bats (200,000) fly out of the cavern into the night. We were able to smell them well before we could see them. The scent was an amazingly pleasant, musky smell. Took around 20 minutes for the majority to spiral up into the surrounding area. This was in the summer. A moonless night (well before the horizontal oil boom). I took some remote roads (all of the roads in this part of Texas (Loving County) are remote) and we stopped to look at the stars. I have never before, or since, had a better view of the Milky Way. Just a glowing stripe across the sky, with a few bright stars you could actually pick out. My both sons wanted to become Astrophysicist for quite a few years after. I hope you enjoy reading this as I had remembering it.

I love David Lynch's work. His vision is unique, twisted and interesting. :-D

Thanks so much for this conversation, I watch a lot of Lynch interviews on youtube and it's always nice to spot one where the interviewers do some actual research and ask questions that haven't been asked a million times!

fascinating...love this insight into the mind of David L...

Amazing, even the mess on his table looks like a piece of art. Mastermind, everything is in harmony.

So great!!

I Like how mr Linch observe life...

I just stumbled across this. This was an amazing interview from you both. David Lynch was one of the few directors that resonated with me growing up.

Thank you so very much.

Brilliant interview ! It's just awesome

Awesome! Thank you! :) David inspired me to start meditating and it's such a great tool.

He’s an enlightened master. Ascended. 🙏🏼

Great interview! I love hearing Lynch talk about other filmmakers. Lynch is endlessly fascinating. Thanks for this guys.

Beautiful interview, fantastic David Lynch and all the question on point

I too seek that perfect shake, Dave!

I imagine Bob's is a BigBoy restaurant and I remember them under a lot of different names, like Elby's , Manners, Frisch's, and a million others. After a gig, my band would go into the local (Steubenville, OH) Elby's BigBoy and always get a hot-fudge ice cream cake. I can't remember if they were 24 hours but they had to be open really late because some of the gigs would go until 1 or 2 AM. It was a very Lynchian experience in those days to be among the milieu who would still be around at that time hanging out at a BigBoy's.

David Lynch has made some of the most disturbing films ever, yet the man himself is adorable.

Fantastic

I love David Lynch!

Nice!

Amazing interview, amazing director. David should make a movie about meditation but I doubt it would be necessarily dark ;) . He is certainly fired up about.

"DAVID LYNCH" ...A CREATIVE LEGEND In FILM -MAKING...Making Use Of The TECHNOLOGY Of CONSCIOUSNESS In The "FILM-MAKING"......Founder Of The "DAVID LYNCH FOUNDATION".......

The Clone Returns Home may interest David, Chris an Dean, a masterpiece that also has that beautiful feeling of comfort and mystery especially the Japanese countryside.

Correction- Kubriks favorite film ever was Eraserhead, not the whole “oh Kubriks one of your favorites. Lynch was Kubriks favorite.

my god, he remembers much more from Rear Windom than me. The thing is he probably saw it like 30 or 50 years ago and I only 5 yrs ago. sick

I need a milkshake NOW, get an organic chocolate ice cream and make a shake with it

Lynch should work with David Byrne to make a musical!

good

David, do you remember the squirrel embryo and polyurethane? (when the kids were in pre-school)

At the end they mentioned a name but I am not familiar with it. Does anyone know what they said, kinda sounded like jay garadev?

The Bob's shake story is pretty conclusive.

28:45 oh damn he just explained Twin Peaks

Wonderful interview. Great work Chris and Dean. Two questions you didn't ask, but I might suggest you ask next time you talk to David Lynch: 1) Is David going to make a film about the life of Maharishi? I heard he was considering it at one point. 2) Would he consider moving to Fairfield and making this his home, or home base?

Chocolate milkshake.

When did this conversation take place ?

you look like Bernie!

And also favorite from Wild at Heart is snake skin jacket -symbol of individuality

I hope david is a grandpa. He would be the best grandpa ever. Endless stories about just........stuff.

The reason most people don’t get into transcendental meditation is because they can’t afford it or don’t know how to access it.

Most of the clip are other dudes

He rules. At that point it probably wouldn't have surprised anyone working there if they took out the trash and seen him rooting through the garbage. Hey, David. *throws trash in dumpster 5 feet from his head* Have a good one. *you, too. Bye.*

I'd bet $100 that the teeth were made by a company called Billy Bob Teeth

Lynch is cool and all, but honestly as the years go by his super detailed explanations of quirky things he likes have lost their charm
