Working: Why Anything Is Possible on HBOs Los Espookys
This week, host June Thomas talks to Julio Torres, Ana Fabrega, and Fred Armisen, creators of the HBO show Los Espookys. The three comedians talk about what it was like to craft a bilingual TV show with dialogue in both English and Spanish and why the show isn\u2019t set in a particular country. They also discuss the show\u2019s supernatural elements, which intentionally lack specific rules and logic.\xa0\nAfter the interview, June and co-host Isaac Butler help a listener who\u2019s feeling unproductive in her new workplace.\xa0\nSend your questions about creativity and any other feedback to working@slate.com.\nAnd if you enjoy this show, please consider signing up for Slate Plus.
