Episode 53: We Ain’t Afraid of No Ghosts!

Welcome back to Conversation on Tap! 

In this episode, Jose interviewed Robin Shelby, the wonderful actress behind the iconic Slimer character from Ghostbusters 2. For the intro and outro, Jose is joined by Ramon Campoamor, the host of Dad's Podcast Project. 

But, first, Jose and Ramon chat about what they have on tap. Jose is once again enjoying some delicious Guinness Extra Stout, while Ramon was getting tipsy on H20-- known more commonly as water.

For their FRED Talks, Jose talked about ghosts, while Ramon talked about the "Right to Repair." 

In the main segment, Jose was joined by Robin Shelby to discuss her experience as Slimer and reflect on her life as part of the iconic Ghostbusters franchise. We begin by talking about her life before Slimer, including her work on the movie Willow. We also talk about what it was like to be inside of the Slimer suit, as well as the team effort required to bring Slimer to life. Robin also talked about meeting Bill Murray on one of the days of filming. We talked about some of her other films and theater work, including her role as Lady Slimer in the all-female cast of Ghostbusters: Answer the Call. It's an engaging and fun discussion!

In the final segment, Jose and Ramon talked about what they have been watching: Jose watched Hamilton on Disney+, while Ramon watched Upload on Amazon Prime.
