Severance Peaks

Severance Peaks

A Severance (not Twin Peaks) podcast. The creators of Damn Fine TV and Talking Backwards offer a unique exploration into the surreal and sinister world of the Apple TV+ series Severance, while weaving in plenty of Twin Peaks connections, theories, and absurd humor along the way. We have no idea where this will lead us, but we have a definite feeling it will be a place both mysterious and important. Get early access to new 'sodes & support our show!

On this week’s ‘sode of Severance Peaks, we’re joined by Marc Geller, the enigmatic Kier Eagan himself. Marc shares behind-the-scenes stories from developing his iconic character, to surprising moments on set—including how one offhand comment at a table read made it into the final script. He also dishes on his favorite fan theories and his love for the incredible fan art the community creates. 


Thanks again to Marc for being her...

In celebration of the historic completion of Mark S.' 25th file, Severance Peaks gathered in person for the first time ever to chat all about Severance, season 2 episode 10, "Cold Harbor." We talked vending machines, marching bands, spilt lineage, the end of the innies, outie Dylan versus outie Mark, and much much more. Plus, just what DID that look from Helly to Gemma mean? And, is Devon a dick now? See you at the Equator, friends...

Take a ride with us, friends and lovers, as we chat all about Severance, season 2 episode 9, “The After Hours.” We discuss the Cobel, Mark, and Devon teamup. Dylan’s heartbreak. Burt and Irv’s tragic (and needless?) goodbye. The unsettling implications of a pregnant woman being “one of Jame’s.” Milchick’s incredible clapback. And the irony of Helly (Eagan) R being the last one … stomping … around the Severed floor. Plus, eggs!

Severance, season 2 episode 8, “Sweet Vitriol” was a slightly divisive episode for the gang at Severance Peaks. We all wanted more Co(w)bel, but was this an intriguing and resonant enough way to deliver that? We do all agree that what we learned about Harmony was hugely important, that the cinematography remains beautiful, and that Patricia Arquette’s performance was nothing to throw a water bottle at. It’s also a big week for 8 Wa...

Jay, Mells, Pat, and Tyler chat all about Severance, season 2 episode 8, "Sweet Vitriol" on this week's Severance Peaks Live! The gang discusses Cobel's motives, ulterior and otherwise. Are we seeing a redemption arc of sorts for Cobel? Is she fully against the Eagans/Lumon? Might she be the person on the other end of Irv's phone calls? And could this possible team up with Mark and Devon be to her detriment? P...

Mark is journeying, as they say, and we are stoked to be along for the mind-bending ride that is Severance, season 2 episode 7, “Chikhai Bardo.” This ‘sode was full of reveals, finally giving us more details on Gemma’s past and present. And yet, with every reveal, more questions were cleverly presented. All of this while keeping us rooted in Mark’s reintegration process, and delivered via one of the most visually stunning hours of ...

Look, the bottom line is, we don't know the why of why things are happening in this show, but we sure do love speculating on the possibilities. Like, do the rooms Gemma visits connect to MDR's work? Almost certainly. Why? Who knows?! One thing we DO know? Jessica Lee Gangé directed one hell of a beau...

Come join us in our makeshift plastic fortbo, for a chat about Severance, season 2 episode 6, "Attila." We debate the possibility that Burt is (still) working for Lumon, and what that might mean for Irv. We discuss the very blurry lines of consent when it comes to Innies and Outies and sexual activity. We marvel over REghabi's passion for REintegration. We speculate on the meaning of Wintertide, and much more! Plus, pepper grinders...

Eggnog might be out of season, but watching a show and talking about it? That’s always in stock for Severance Peaks. And this week we’re talking all about Severance, season 2 episode 5, “Trojan’s Horse.” We dive into the masterclass in petty corporate gaslighting that was Milchick’s performance review, lament over the lack of love shown to Irv B despite his affections index being so high, we sympathize with Mark S as he navigates t...

We chat Kiertans, that spicy elevator scene, Lumon's continued mistreatment of Milchick, Mark's reinteglitches, and Irv and Burt's reunion (ham dinner throuple, anyone?) Plus, Dave stops by for an emergency Bible Corner (kind of.)

Doppelgangers, an ominous forest, waterfalls, and a mysterious cave ... Severance got pretty darn Twin Peaks-y in season 2 episode 4, "Woe's Hollow" and we can't wait to share our initial thoughts about it, on this week’s Severance Peaks Live!

You shouldn’t believe everything your computer tells you, but believe this, the goats are not what they seem. And that’s mostly because we have no idea what they even mean, but we’re almost certain there’s a mystery underneath that mystery. Yes, things get pretty wrinkly this week as we discuss the many layers of Severance, in general, but through the lens of season 2 episode 3, “Who is Alive?”

We explore the goat room and the goat...

We've said it before, and we'll say it again, REcycle, REintegrate, REghabi! Much like Kier himself, Patrick flys solo this week to talk about that cliffhanger. We'll save the rest of the GOOds for the proper sode coming at you next week!
