An episode within an episode. The show features a fall themed collection of guitar pieces, and is then followed by a battle between my friend, Jeremy Showgren and myself to draft the best roster of horror movies. Spoiler alert: I destroy him.

Episode 22

In this episode, I mention the first horror movie I ever saw, discuss the benefits of having a mean violin teacher, and read a ghostly email. Not a lot of guitar talk in this episode, but it's made up for with some fantastic compositions by Etienne de Lavaulx.
