Three years ago, we interviewed a fantastic duo, a brother/sister horror filmmaking team.  First, we were lucky enough to interview the badass and talented actress and cosplayer, Ashley Mary Nunes to discuss her acting journey from acting in homemade horror films to eventually becoming a Scream Queen in such horror classics as All Through The House. Then through Ashley, we were able to sit down and discuss another awesome journey with her brother, Horror-film writer and director, Todd Nunes! With Todd we tracked his foray into the genre from creating horror-inspired plays at school to ultimately hitting the festival circuits with his original stories.  After these fantastic podcast interviews, we started one of our first Hollywood Hustle traditions: our Annual #HalloweenHustle Horror Film Commentary episodes every Halloween with Team Hustle and Team Nunes! Year One we started with John Carpenter's classic "Halloween". Year Two saw James Wan's "The Conjuring" strike the podcast waves.

Next week we'll be releasing our third annual Halloween Commentary, featuring the original "Child's Play" and Ashley and Todd Nunes will be joining Daniel and Michael once more!  Before we release the horror commentary, we wanted to re-introduce our longtime listeners as well as new listeners to Team Nunes, so we're sharing some of the best clips from both of their individual episodes.  Ashley and Todd are perfect examples of the "Hollywood Hustle" spirit and are all about paving your own way in LA.  

Here are some of the fun stories you'll be hearing today:

- A perfect example of just how small of a city Los Angeles truly is

- Ashley's and Todd's introduction to horror movies and what inspired them to dive further into the genre

- Ashley Nunes first role as a killer stuffed animal

- Powerful examples of why you need to choose to do what you love vs. Settling for what you don't want

- Todd Nunes recounting of how he filmed his first horror film SCARY LARRY immediately after graduating from film school and learning how to command a set as a director

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
