#5 | Siddhartha Khosla scored 'This is Us' pilot in his parents' basement

Robert and Kenny begin the show discussing the conclusion of the ESPN docuseries The Last Dance profiling Michael Jordan and the 90s Chicago Bulls, and the terrific use of both source music and the dramatic score by composer Thomas Caffey. Then, Mrs. America composer Kris Bowers joins the show to share how he and his team adapted to the coronavirus stay at home orders that went into effect in the middle of scoring the new FX series. Before the break, the team checks Score: The Mailbox

Later, Emmy-nominated composer Siddhartha Khosla joins the show and discusses his early years as a touring frontman for his band Goldspot, how his college roommate Dan Fogelman convinced him to change his musical path and eventually led to scoring NBC's smash series This is Us and why he could be the first Chief Musical Officer of the USA.
