On this episode, we welcome our new producer and audio engineer, Greg Nussen! Greg has been a part of the team as a research assistant for the past year and now he's taking the reigns from Pete who's off to explore what tricks and treats await beyond Halloweenland.


Today we get to know Greg's Halloween history! What kind of candy does he like? What spooky movies are a must? Does he have any favorite costumes or trick-or-treat memories? Does he ever think about dying? We dive into it all!
