Presley introduces dad to Will Wood through his latest release, The Normal Album.  We were planning to talk more about the amazing ARG that goes along with the release, but got so tied up in talking about the concept of the album that this turned into our longest episode even without the ARG talk.  So go search for Mary Bell University and start your journey.  Trust us, it’s a lot of fun to go down that rabbit hole.

Near Dark is a movie that dad really loved when he was young,  and he’s been wanting to share it with Presley for years, but it’s a little hard to find since it’s out of print.  Luckily, it really held up and it was good to compare it with Lost Boys and Twilight.  As will all great horror films, it’s full of social commentary and Presley really gets into it.  Between the drug references and the fringe groups preying on isolated people, this one is a real hidden gem.
