EP. 120 — A Murder Mystery Dinner Party

Paul F. Tompkins welcomes ladies, gentlemen, and his Germany fans to Spontaneanation! This week, Paul’s special return guests are Sean Clements and Hayes Davenport of Hollywood Handbook! They chat about what is the first song they remember hating, Sean’s recollection of riots that occurred in the parking lot of a Dave Matthews Band concert in Connecticut, and Hayes being scared of Ace of Base growing up. Paul, Sean, and Hayes then improvise a story set in A Murder Mystery Dinner Party. And as always, Eban (only the best) Schletter scores it all on piano!
