This week on The Stacks, in part one (0:00-1:24:43), Shana and j. continue to discuss the 2017 third season of Twin Peaks with the third and fourth episodes, in addition to "Conduit" - the fourth episode of X-Files' first season. In part two (1:24:43-2:21:47), we talk in shorter form about the 2021 MCU miniseries Hawkeye, the notorious 1956 sword and sandal Dick Powell / John Wayne camp debacle The Conqueror, Jayne Loader, Kevin and Pierce Rafferty's 1982 excellent, chilling cold war documentary Atomic Cafe, Michael J. Murphy's 2015 SOV Greek pantheon slasher Nekros, Hugh Wilson's 1984 introduction of the Police Academy franchise, James DeMonaco's 2016 wokesploitation horror The Purge: Election Year, Jed I. Rosenberg's warm and loving 2023 documentary on Gary Young and Pavement Louder Than You Think, and Joe D'Amato's 1978 quasi-Emanuelle film Porno Nights of the World No. 2 (aka Sexy Night Report 2). In part three, as usual, we talk in brief about the other stuff we've watched since last time and make our picks for next week's episode.
