Broadcasting live from the Civic Media Studios in Green Bay, this is Night Light with Peach Wabba.

Your inside source on everything entertainment from Wisconsin to Hollywood.

A guy who travels so he can pretend he's on the lamb.

Pete Schwabba.

Pete Schwaba

Welcome back to Nightlight, ladies and gentlemen.

Great to have you with me.

It is Halloween, a Friday night Halloween.

I can't do any better than that.

I'm having a good time here tonight.

Conrad is on vacation.

Sitting in for the K-man is A-Z, Azam, Aaron Zamers.

What do people call you, Aaron?

What do you have like a nickname?

I mean, people mostly call me by my last name here at Civic Media mostly because Todd likes being a little bit formal.

You know, he likes calling Luke Mr. Mathers.

And so I'm Mr. Zomers, whatever.

But also because there's more than one Aaron.

But I guess there was one weird one I had in middle school or high school.

It was early high school.

Some of the younger students in jazz band.

I played a particularly spicy trombone solo once and so they decided that they were gonna call me zombie spice.

You're like, we gotta add some zombie spice to the

Pete Schwaba

mix.

How do you do a spicy trombone solo?

I can't even imagine what went into that.

Well, if you get a little... You can play it in a way that the tone is crispy.

You got that sizzling bacon when you're really pushing it to the max.

Pete Schwaba

Wow, look at you, man.

You must have done okay in middle school.

Well, we appreciate your time tonight, buddy.

It's great to have you here.

Thank you for filling in for Conrad, who is at a wedding in case people are wondering

Kathryn Lake

or concerned.

Pete Schwaba

He's at a wedding.

He is in the wedding party.

He is not the best man.

He made it clear to tell me that went to a brother of the groom, sort of like saying, I probably would have been the best man if this guy didn't have a brother.

So his options were to either pull a tiny hardening and kneecap the brother Or just be in the wedding party, which you seem fine with so I think he probably made the right call.

I think so too.

He'll be back on Tuesday In the meantime, we have Aaron's honors tonight on loan from the Todd Alba show Keeping it real in Madison.

What is it like Aaron in Madison tonight?

Madison is the place to be on Halloween I remember going up there when I was in college.

It was an absolute blast kind of crazy

a little overwhelming at times.

I hear in recent years, it's dialed back a little bit.

Yeah, definitely dialed back quite a bit.

I guess right now, I don't think it's too crazy.

It might pick up a little bit more later, you know, maybe around eight, eight, 30 or nine.

Some of the bars will be a little crazier.

I saw

Kathryn Lake

a few

people in costume when I went out today to grab some dinner.

But mostly this last Wednesday, the Wednesday before Halloween, they started doing a

like kids trick-or-treat downtown where they close off the streets.

Pete Schwaba

There were a

lot of people in costume there.

They were just all very small.

Pete Schwaba

You really forget it's Halloween.

Like I wanted to get my hair cut today and the girl that was cutting my hair, she had like this whole goth thing going on.

And I'm like, whoa, I didn't know she was that into that.

I'm like, no, you idiot, it's Halloween.

And she was just playing the part.

But I do that sometimes.

Yeah, I.

I was a little bit, I went to a couple of different thrift stores looking for a suit jacket for my costume, and I didn't find anything.

So today, a last-ditch effort, I went to a Goodwill that's closer to my house, and I went in there, and even though I was there for part of my costume, it still caught me off guard when I went over to the cashier and one of them was wearing a mask, like a Joker mask, and I'm like, what, what, oh yeah, it's Halloween.

That's actually why I'm here.

Pete Schwaba

You kind of forget, yeah.

Um, well, we're having fun here tonight on a Halloween.

It's great to have you with us, folks.

Uh, here at nightlight, uh, if you missed act one, Mike Clemens was here, played some great clips from the Packers.

If you missed it and you want to check it out, go to civicmedia.us, all the podcasts are a catalog there.

Mike is always fun to have on the show.

Uh, Mr. Zahmers or AZ and I talked about, uh, Halloween a little bit up top and, uh, it is a bar band Friday night.

Terry Barr will be here at, uh, 7 20 tonight, a little early.

So we can talk about Halloween because we always have so much fun with Terry and she always leaves us wanting more.

So we thought,

well,

Pete Schwaba

I'll bring her on a few minutes early.

And our question of the night is, what is the scariest to you anyway?

What is your scariest creature or monster?

Which creature or monster scares you the most?

I say a skin walker.

Summers, you kind of said shape shifter, but you kind of transition then into something else.

What was your answer?

Yeah, I think I'm going to go with like

a skin walker or things like that.

I

Pete Schwaba

don't have a

specific one, but stuff that can easily pass off as a normal person.

Pete Schwaba

So creepy.

And Nanny and Wills had the Moray eel or the Lamprey eel, too.

That's pretty creepy.

But we'll get to some more of your texts in just a few minutes.

Folks, Act 2 is underway.

And I have a special guest here.

Periodically, I like to bring my pal and son, Joe Schwabba, on because he is a big movie fan as well.

And he just saw a movie.

the other night spotlight that emerson layman made his popcorn pick of the week last night so i thought let's do a deep dive and within a few minutes of this great movie so i thought i would have joan to talk about it and kind of refresh my memory about it as well i remember loving it it won the best actor i'm sorry the best picture oscar in 2016 i think it was and uh here to talk more about that is my uh fellow movie buff and son joe schwaba hey buddy hey how you doing

Good.

Are you on the stream or the phone?

Uh, I'm on the phone.?

Okay.

Oh, I said, okay.

Don't listen to me, Joe.

I'm doing the show from home tonight.

I'm a little discombobulated.

Uh, okay.

So you're, you saw spotlight, Joe, and what, what, I mean, you were a journalism major, but what propelled you or what motivated you to watch that movie this week?

I just think it's a great coincidence that

Emerson was on last night and made it his pick and you told me like literally two days before you just saw it now I want to give it a rewatch But what made you had you not seen it before?

Well, I had not seen it before and I actually saw it Just on like Instagram like you know how they'll post clips sometimes So I saw a clip of Mark Ruffalo and he's just such a good actor and his performance really gripped me So I was like man, I got to watch this movie because I had heard so many good things about it?

And I hadn't watched a movie in a while, so I was like, well, I'm going to sit down and watch this.?

And it?

was great.

You're not really in the journalism field, but you majored in it.

Was that fun to watch a movie about investigative journalism?

Because I know Emerson was saying he doesn't do investigative journalism, but he is a news anchor.

And those movies are so much fun.

Did you look at it differently, like knowing about journalism and how true was it to journalism in your

opinion??

I mean, I don't feel like I'm one that should like speak on how true it was to like the, I guess, like journalistic integrity, but it seemed like they seemed like they knew what they were doing.?

They fooled me.?

A journalism student who doesn't use his journalism degree.?

All right.?

I think they did a pretty good job But I would say yeah, I mean I love movies We're just characters that are investigative journalists because they're so often Completely absorbed with their work and that's all that matters to them and I'm I gravitate towards characters like that.?

I think they're very interesting to watch on screen?

Yeah, great point.

I always say I like a good mystery or caper or cop movie or show But it's watching reporters investigate stuff is almost even more exciting because they're just trying to get to the truth They're not trying to find the bad guy or they kind of are but I love that that they get consumed with the truth.

How did this film?

Have you seen other movies that?

Deal with investigative journalism and how if so, how do they compare to the spotlight?

Yeah, I mean I got to say this one is This one is one of my favorites.?

I would say it probably is my favorite in that genre.?

I mean you have the insider Yeah, Michael Mann, I think?

Kathryn Lake

which

Pete Schwaba

was great Zodiac is another one with Mark Ruffalo actually, so I think that's just his best role.?

It's just an investigative journalist?

But Zodiac was great too And that's all about that world and more about how like journalists I think and then the other one was That I saw was with it might have been with Jessica Chastain, but that could be wrong We actually watch this.?

I think it was about the Boston strangler.?

Oh,

Pete Schwaba

yeah Was it like?

yeah,

Pete Schwaba

I want to say it was Jessica Chastain but?

could be wrong.?

That?

sounds familiar.

Did you see all the president's men?

No, but I actually looked up movies like Spotlight after I watched it, and that was one of them they recommended.?

So that's going to be next on my list.?

I've heard that that's amazing, too.?

Yeah, definitely check that one out.

It's a great one, too.

All right, who gave the best performance show?

Because it's such a great cast.

You got Rachel McAdams, who I remember thinking was great.

Michael

Keaton is?

fantastic Stanley Tucci is in it and then obviously

my brother is?

great in everything

Yeah, I mean it's like it's so hard to pick they all those names you mentioned Yeah, are great.?

Also, we got a Billy Crudup Quick quick cameo.?

I love a Billy Crudup cameo.?

I'm a big Billy Crudup guy He makes me think like there there could be a spot?

for a guy like me, kind of dorky and whatever looking.?

I like Billy Cretup.?

Identify with Billy Cretup is what I'm trying to say.?

Who was the guy last time that I really liked a lot??

You kind of look like, you kind of remind me of him a little bit too.

That's interesting you say that.

Yeah.

But I

would say, I would say probably Mark Ruffalo.?

I would say probably Mark Ruffalo.?

Rachel McAdams was really good too, but her character was a little more grounded than some of the other ones I think.?

Yeah, but

listen sorry?

go ahead.

No no go ahead, please

I was gonna say I think the the highlight of her performance is when She goes to the doorstep of one of the former priests and he basically confesses to all of the crimes like it's nothing and she is just like Her performance there is perfect with how specific That scene calls for it's amazing what she's able to do?

Huh.

I know you like Mark Ruffalo, because we've talked about him in the past.

Check out Task.

Next, he

is so good in?

that.

And he's good, but the character is good.

It's just a very diverse, thoughtful character.

I think you're going to love it.

Listen, I know you're headed to a bunch of parties tonight in Chicago.

Have fun, be safe, and thank you for sharing your views on Spotlight with me, buddy.

Thanks.

I also want to let everybody know that I'm dressed as Dexter right now, as I'm doing this call.?

whatever that gets for you.?

That's what I'm?

doing.

If people stay away from you tonight, at least you know why.

So that's, you got that going for

you.?

Oh, that's what I'm telling?

myself.

All right.

Have a great time.

Thanks, Joe.

Yep.

Thanks.

All right.

You got it.

That's Joe Schwaba, my son, checking in with Aaron.

Did that make you want to check out Spotlight?

It

did, especially because when you were talking about

Movies where the main character is like obsessed with finding the truth and like completely dedicated to

Kathryn Lake

it It

reminded me of a lot of other movies.

I really like maybe not journalists, but cops and Chinatown the French connection LA confidential

Pete Schwaba

Love LA confident.

That's one of my that's in my top five, buddy.

It's so good a Perfect movie everything characters sets script direction.

It's outstanding also a

movie

where finding out the truth about Kevin Spacey actually improves the character.

Very well said.

Pete Schwaba

Great point.

Brett, who earlier said his

Favorite or least favorite creature or monster was his first wife.

We wondered Aaron and I wondered allowed how many wives he said and Brett says number four was the charm.

So well done, Brett.

That's an answer to a different Question, I guess, but thank you for weighing in from the 815.

This is wicked.

Well done, everyone That was about an hour ago.

We're talking about an hour ago I don't care exactly great text.

It's great to hear from the 815.

Love the 815

Jim from Appleton says, how about another Native American monster, Windego, or to bend holidays a little bit.

Krampus, Santa Claus, not nice brother.

Pete Schwaba

Welcome, folks, to one of my favorite times of the week here at Nightlight.

We're bringing our guest, my co-host for Bar Band Friday Night in a little early tonight because it's Halloween and I thought we would have a fun few minutes of buildup, but kind of an opening act to Bar Band Friday Night, so we brought Terry in a few minutes early.

She is the co-host of Maxink, the award-winning Maxink radio on WMDX, which you can check out.

from six to nine every saturday if you're in the madison area or go to civicmedia.us and all of the uh podcasts are there from this great show and she is our wisconsin music expert and our friend terry how are you

hey pete wow you uh i don't know i i'm not even sure what to say about what you're wearing well

Pete Schwaba

it's like if the marx brothers went to jail this is what they would wear this is the costume like i and i've had this

Because my kids like when they were young, you know, they're

Kathryn Lake

like,

Pete Schwaba

dad, why don't you put something on and I didn't want to be the guy like to go with the mustache and put the freckles on and all that stuff.

So I bought like a five dollar jail costume.

And it's still working for you.

It's I wear once a year.

Probably it's probably due for a abortion.

But and I've got the hat, which I had to take off because my hair was getting sweaty.

And I've got the PJ if he's still on the stream.

I these are the jail pants I did not I'm kind of mailing it in but I will prove that I am wearing pants I've got these black uh sort of like not a not a legging or a jegging but a comfortable

pants

Pete Schwaba

yeah

very nice

Pete Schwaba

the

only thing I hope we can get through Pete is the doorbells not ringing at either of our homes while the trick or treaters are

Pete Schwaba

out

You know, I did.

Here's what's strange.

And I don't know if you remember this, Terry, but when I was a kid, I remember trick or treating till I couldn't walk anymore or eat candy anymore.

Now it's at least in Marinette.

It's from four to six, which is exactly when the show started.

So that wasn't going to be a problem.

But I don't know what it where where are you in Madison?

Can I

am in Madison?

And the time is is a suggested five to eight.

That's a

Pete Schwaba

long time.

That is a long time.

What are you giving out?

We have a variety pack basically.

You know, gum-dums and then the chewy things and yeah.

Pete Schwaba

We were going to give away like some of the more, you know, name brand candy but we couldn't get a home equity loan in time to go out and buy it.

What on earth is happening with candy?

Yeah, everything.

Oh

Pete Schwaba

my

goodness.

Pete Schwaba

And then

you look at where it's made and it's like, oh boy, how much did it cost to get here if you're doing some of the really funky candy from somewhere else?

Pete Schwaba

I never even considered that.

Where do they make?

Do they not make candy in America?

Well, I know the Mars company makes quite a few different of the candy bars, but

Pete Schwaba

some of these

things, who knows anymore?

Wow.

Pete Schwaba

Yeah it's very expensive and whatever once a year you got to do it but it's like oh god I just had a new roof put on I got a kid in college and I got to spend a thousand dollars on candy for.

So there you go.

That's the whole

equity loan.

Pete Schwaba

Yeah exactly.

So are you going to a party tonight or this weekend?

What are your Halloween plans

Terry?

Oh it's so funny.

No I actually haven't been to an

a real Halloween party in a couple of years.

And even around, you know, Madison, Milwaukee, there's a lot of bands that dress up as other bands

and play

music.

So there's a lot of those things going on.

We are actually going to visit my mother-in-law and some of my husband's family tomorrow.

So that's going to kind of be our, you know, November 1st Halloween kind of party.

But I'm dressed as a music journalist, can you tell?

I

Pete Schwaba

have my

notebook in my pen.

Pete Schwaba

You're a trendsetter.

There is no better music journalist.

What is it about Halloween?

I'm dressing up because I'm on the radio.

Kathryn Lake

And

Pete Schwaba

there are listeners and people watching.

I'm probably going to stop by a quick party tonight.

But what makes us want to stop dressing up or put the effort in?

I

don't know.

And it's kind of sad, isn't it?

It is.

Oh my gosh.

And so many of the other radio stations in the Civic Media Network,

they

were all sharing photos today of their costumes.

So they dressed up to go to work today.

And I'm working from home right now.

And I couldn't even get myself to get dressed up for you.

Pete Schwaba

You could borrow my jail.

I have I have more jail clothing.

I'm doing a whole line Zomers Aaron tell Terry who you are So, yeah,

Terry, I'm so happy you're here.

I'm Tommy Wise though the star the director of the hit movie the room I'm ready to go out and play catch toss around the football

And I brought my movie.

In case you haven't seen it, you want to borrow the

Pete Schwaba

blue

red?

It's a great movie.

He's

Pete Schwaba

playing the part.

Like I'm not going that far.

I didn't actually knock off a liquor store to get into character.

But Aaron is in, he is working it, man.

That is fantastic.

That is nice.

Pete Schwaba

Yeah.

There's a point where you get to where it's like, okay, we get the accent.

You can segue back into Aaron voice.

Terry, what was your favorite costume when you were a kid?

What did you go as?

Oh my goodness.

You know, it was the typical, it came in a box

Pete Schwaba

and it was

like a little princess outfit.

Pete Schwaba

Nothing wrong with

that.

Well, you know, to have the mask and then remember way back when, and there's a little hole for your mouth, but it was still like so tiny, you still couldn't breathe and you couldn't see and it was like, now I'm scaring myself because I can't breathe or see.

Pete Schwaba

And, you know, what on earth were we inhaling in those masks?

Where were those made?

And what, you know what I mean?

Like, just getting those bleeds.

Hey, give us a, well, actually, all right, let's do the news.

We're going to come back.

Terry Barr is here.

We're having a great time here at Nightlight, folks, on Halloween.

Our question tonight is what creature or monster scares you the most?

We'll ask Terry that when we come back as well.

And we will do bar band Friday night here at Nightlight with Beachwalla on the Civic Media Radio Network.

Welcome back.

This is not like that might be the granddaddy of halloween songs right terry i mean absolutely i said that video was going around today and people are like it still holds up check it out i haven't seen it in years but it was a masterpiece when it came out that was like that was like the

video right yeah that and rocky horror anything from rocky horror

Pete Schwaba

yeah that's

That is the voice of Terry Barr folks.

She joined us a little early tonight because she's a pal and it's Halloween and it's also barband.

This is a weird equinox where there's a Friday night.

It's a barband Friday night and Halloween.

I'm not sure this has ever happened before.

Ooh, I can't say.

Oh.

And it's funny,

my husband just got home a little, little while ago and he said, um, so what, who are you sharing tonight?

And I said, uh, Wisconsin based artists with original Halloween music.

He goes, boy, you, you had to dig deep for that.

Pete Schwaba

Very specific.

And we expect, uh, obviously nothing less from Terry Varnabarman Friday night.

Let's jump in.

Let's talk about these.

I didn't even know there were bands that had specific Halloween music that were only from Wisconsin, but I love how we've kind of drilled down.

That's great.

Which one do you want to start with?

Pete Schwaba

Let's start with JT Sparks.

Okay, yeah.

I am new to JT's music, but I'm really digging it.

He is the lead singer for Dogtown Hollow, a Southern Wisconsin band.

Normally, they are like Americana, but he recently took part in this album writing month, and he had to do 14 songs in 28 days.

And he said at one point, all I could do was just crank out some weirdness.

I love that.

So he was inspired by the spooky typeface, you know, the Helvetica

font.

Yeah.

I mean, that's really stretching deep for a song, isn't it?

So I think he saw

Kathryn Lake

that

somewhere while he was in the songwriting project and He wrote this song.

It's called Helvetica the font of evil and he wrote it with his friend Elliot Ben Skike who was also part of this project and I Have what we are going to play is the live

raw version as he was actually writing this song.

Yeah, he sent this

Pete Schwaba

to me.

I love it.

Yeah.

So I don't know if you want to play it.

I don't know if you're doing all right with your microphone there.

So I

Pete Schwaba

think I'm OK.

Am I OK?

I think we are now.

Oh, perfect.

Let's hear some.

Let's hear some JT Sparks.

Yeah.

People say that the road to hell is paved with good ideals I don't care about any of that McDamn Chippin' Seal

I see them all the time We should spell with a double L Satan's typeface The devil signs for your soul

Pete Schwaba

That was one of the most original song.

I mean, that is so crazy.

That's great.

And where does that come from?

Font of evil, Helvetica.

I don't even know if I've ever used Helvetica as my font, but now I want to.

Pete Schwaba

Well, and it's just probably like when they do those workshops where they have to write, like your brain just goes to crazy places and that's really creative.

I love it.

Well, and he said it's the only Halloween song he's ever written and it will probably be the only one

Pete Schwaba

He's got a lot more fonts out there if you want to write more songs Dogtown halloward.

Do they play?

Are you a fan of their work aside from the song?

I saw them was at Woodfest in Madison and Yeah, they're they are terrific.

They don't play out as much into the winter they all have

pretty stressful jobs.

So they play a lot during the summer, though, a lot of outdoor festivals all around the state.

So watch for Dogtown Hollow.

They're all really active on social media, though, during the entire year.

So you can always track them down that way.

Pete Schwaba

OK.

Very cool.

Terry, we have a text for you from the 608.

John Murray says, love when you are on the show, Terry.

Thank you.

You are a gem.

So there you go.

Well, that's so nice.

Pete Schwaba

Thank you.

Yeah, John is one of our regular textors.

And while I'm at it, he and his wife, I'll call her his better half.

John, I think you'd be OK with me doing that.

Terry, do you have a favorite or least favorite or scariest creature or being of some sort?

You know what?

Jaws scary.

Sharks.

Yeah.

But if I have to think of a scary, like a real scary haunted kind of movie, it was The Slasher in Friday the 13th, which didn't that come out in like the early 80s?

The first

Pete Schwaba

one?

Did he have a name, though?

Or was it just Jason?

Oh, Jason.

Yeah, of course.

Look

at

Pete Schwaba

Aaron.

And I don't

Pete Schwaba

know

why that scared me so much.

Some of those the screaming scenes, obviously, I thought that could happen.

That could actually happen.

And so that's when I get really scared when I think it can happen.

Pete Schwaba

Absolutely.

And that's a great answer.

And Melissa in the 608 says, the thing that scares her the most, psychopaths that kill people.

Yeah,

that's...

Pete Schwaba

Melissa, thank you.

And that's very real.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's winning for sure.

Pete Schwaba

Absolutely.

And then John in the 608 says, watched dog 50 dogman videos one winter, terrifying cryptid, locked me in hard sell, but such gripping stories.

So maybe if only plausible, hope to hope to hell I never see one, you know, just in case most famous reported sightings are in Wisconsin.

No, no, no, no.

Pete Schwaba

That's what he says.

He says, been in the news before Google it for facts, which I did, John.

and i had never heard of dogma but they're like um they're like werewolves kind of like they have they're like bipeds and they stand up and they're like people that are i know it's very creepy that kind of like reminded me of a skinwalker erron like right along like right along those those lines very scary stuff yes

yes terry

Pete Schwaba

john also says uh you're the best radio voice and personality really oh

my goodness

Pete Schwaba

just

saying

Pete Schwaba

offsetting all that scary talk.

We've got one more text here and then we'll jump back into some music.

PG says, the creature that scares me is... I don't even know how to pronounce that.

Cthulhu.

What is it?

Cthulhu.

It's basically a big, incomprehensible, giant octopus squid guy who controls... Basically, the only reason you live is because he hasn't thought about you yet.

Because he doesn't care about us.

The whole thing is like cosmic horror, unfathomable, evil power that we can't understand.

That's creepy, Aaron.

Pete Schwaba

Very creepy.

Well, don't shoot the messenger, though.

PG says the...

The closer you get to the truth, the faster your sanity slops away.

Yikes.

And PG says, second for Terry, the broadcasting goat.

So there you go.

Terry, you got some fans.

Oh my goodness.

Pete Schwaba

And I could not agree more.

All of you, very kind.

Thank you.

That really means a lot.

Thank

Pete Schwaba

you.

Love having you on the show.

It's just so much fun.

OK, so let's jump into, let's talk about your next band.

Is it Sunspot Original?

Am I getting that?

It

Pete Schwaba

is

Sunspot.

Yes.

OK.

This is honestly for a very, very long time has been one of my favorite bands.

It's a three piece, Mike, Ben and Wendy.

They have been together since college, so now close to 25 years they have been playing together.

The energy these three bring, though, you would think they're still teenagers.

It's incredible.

Mike writes a lot of the music.

And he is also the owner and operator of a thing called American Ghost Walks.

So they take their ghosts and spirits very seriously.

This band has played at UFO conventions.

The scary Comic-Cons they've played at haunted houses.

They've played at closed businesses like old hospitals.

Pete Schwaba

We're gonna do a very quick break, and then we will come back and hear the song Spend the Night from Sunspot.

Terry Barr is here, folks.

It's a bar ban Friday night, and she is the broadcasting goat.

You can't go wrong.

Happy Halloween.

We're coming right back.

This is Nightlight, and we have our pal, Terry Barr, who joins us just about every Friday here for Bar Band Friday Night, a segment named in her honor because she finds us outstanding music and...

That was evidenced in the last segment.

She brought us a Wisconsin band with an original Halloween song.

And now we've got another one, Terry, that we've talked about Sunspot a little bit.

Why don't we play that?

Anything else you want to tell us about Spend the Night?

Is it a lust for the profane?

Or a dream of the insane?
