Season 2 Episode 20 | Dave Porter would turn down Spielberg to work with Vince Gilligan


Robert, Kenny, Matt and Carol begin the season finale discussing Joker breaking the box office record for largest October opening and how composer Hildur Guðnadóttir plays a role in that with her score.

Then award-winning composer Dave Porter joins to share stories of how he first got involved in the Breaking Bad universe, working closely with long time collaborator Vince Gilligan, his path into film scoring that started with early classical training and later exploring electronic music in college, interning at Phillip Glass’ studio, how 9/11 played a role in giving him the final push to move to LA and taking a deep dive into his music for Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul and the now released El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie.

Lastly, Dave joins for a special round of #NameThatScore with a “science” theme.
