Episode 16: We Don’t Scare Easily

In this episode of Conversation on Tap, Jose is joined by his little brother Jesse-- Joel is away with his family in Hawaii. After a brief introduction, Jose and Jesse pour their drinks: Jesse, who is staight-edge, poured himself a Dr. Pepper, while Jose poured a glass of Dewar's White Label whiskey. For their FRED Talks, Jose talked about the Janus v. AFSCME decision by the Supreme Court and the Catholic Church's stance on unions; Jesse talked about the beef between Pusha T and Drake. Once they got into the main topic, Jesse and Jose talked about how they both got into horror films and why they have a certain attraction to the genre, but they also touched on why some people have an aversion to the genre. Jose and Jesse also spent a considerable time talking about smart horror films, like Get Out. They also touched on groundbreaking horror films that set trends, though eventually became played out-- zombie movies, anyone? To wrap up, Jesse talked about the Dead Meat Podcast, which talks about horror films, while Jose talked about the movie Deadpool 2. We are thankful that Jesse could fill in for Joel, but we are hopeful that Joel will return soon! Cheers!
