Conversations From A Room

Hello Hello! I’m back with a brand new episode, fresh conversations with my good friend (and neighbor) Sam May! And we start off running; Sam digs up stories about experimenting with drugs for the first time in High School and how his mother ended up finding out about it (thanks a lot Pam!) He shares the story of “Claws,” his childhood pet turtle that run away to his not so smart neighbors house. We discuss the perks and details of working in production sound for film and television. Also i find out why Snyder Texas was ranked USA Today’s top 50 places to live. (spoiler alert: it’s a super small town and everything is super cheap) Then we talk horror films. (What? A week before Christmas?) Well that’s because this episode was actually recorded back in October. Sorry Santa! But sit back, listen, and enjoy.   Instagram: @sammaysound @kristianlugo

He shares a very intimate story about how he and his family were once held at gun point when he was just a child, and the decision his parents made to aim for a safer life in the United States. We find out about Julio’s embarrassing first day of school in America, and the one friend he found solace with named Kennith (shout out to Kennith!) I ask Julio on his experiences with working on his breakout role, Oscar ‘Spooky’ Diaz, that he portrays on the Netflix series “On My Block.”  He then tries his hardest to discuss a scene from the film “Kate & Leopold,” but  we realize we’ve accidentally gotten to drunk to make any damn sense.
