Hello everybody in podcast listening
1:17
world .
1:19
Jim , today we
1:21
got a big episode . It
1:24
seems to be one of the most rowing
1:27
holidays around the world
1:29
because I know now it's
1:31
just a couple years old in Canada
1:33
, a couple years old in Australia
1:36
. It's starting to really catch
1:38
on to American
1:40
standards . Costumes
1:42
and candy and all that and
1:45
being at UNI are of age
1:48
, a long age
1:50
. We have lots of things that we
1:52
like and dislike on
1:54
this holiday , so we're going to talk
1:56
about it today .
1:59
Let's get into it .
2:01
So the first subject let's
2:05
drop , let's
2:07
say favorite classic horror
2:09
movies .
2:10
Okay .
2:11
Top three or top five , whatever you
2:13
want . Okay , top three , all right .
2:17
What's your top three ?
2:18
So let's go with the old 1930s
2:21
classic Dracula
2:24
with Bella Lagosse , because
2:26
, yes , there's no other vampire
2:29
movie if it's not
2:31
Bella .
2:32
Oh , yeah , that's . I mean , he's the gold standard
2:34
, the O , well , not
2:36
the OG , but probably
2:38
the most . When you think of Dracula
2:40
, the character , that is the person you think he
2:43
created that whole language
2:45
, that whole movement , that whole acting he
2:48
was . He is Dracula .
2:49
And you know , when he died , they actually buried
2:52
him in his outfit , Dracula
2:54
outfit . Yeah . So
2:56
go dig that up , you'll be , you'll get some
2:58
money .
3:00
And that movie . That movie also like , if you watch
3:02
it nowadays it's not like terrible
3:06
and like doesn't match up , it's still .
3:08
it gives that creep and ominous vibe and
3:10
stuff and you know if it holds
3:12
up to the today's standards with
3:14
with regular horror movies
3:16
. Yes , it's not all bloody and gory
3:19
, you know , like some people like
3:21
, except for like a little bite
3:23
mark , and yeah , and
3:26
and they would .
3:27
They'd also do stuff off camera or
3:29
like they would fade to black and
3:32
they would do stuff where you hear , hear
3:34
different things happening , screams and that
3:36
, or murders , and you didn't actually see
3:38
it . What was going on in your mind made it even
3:40
worse . People would think .
3:42
Right , right . So what
3:44
do you got for here ? For one .
3:48
My number one personally
3:51
is the Wolfman .
3:53
That's a good movie .
3:54
I mean that Lon Cheney Jr the
3:57
Wolfman . He he's just trying
3:59
to . You know , he's an everyday
4:01
guy . He's just trying to help out this
4:03
lady that's in trouble and he gets bit
4:05
by a werewolf and
4:08
then he becomes the werewolf not
4:11
too much spoilers and then
4:14
he is just a sad and character
4:16
. He doesn't want it , he doesn't , he didn't ask for
4:18
any of this and he just has to deal with what he's
4:20
become . Look at that
4:22
. That's awesome . That's got has
4:24
a Wolfman figure .
4:27
And you know what I
4:30
got ? The accessory of the head . You take
4:32
the head off and he put Lon Cheney's head on . So
4:35
I mean it's a cool movie and Bella La Colse is
4:37
in that too .
4:39
Yeah , I got that figure . I just got it
4:41
. Last month I got the black and white version
4:43
of that exact figure .
4:45
Oh , nice , nice .
4:47
The whole figure is like gray and black
4:49
and white , kind of looking .
4:51
And I like what Neck is doing , that they're
4:53
bringing their release and , like all the
4:56
all the universal monsters
4:58
and holy cow , like they
5:00
just released the creature of the
5:02
black lagoon and
5:05
he looks cool , I might even get him this week
5:07
.
5:08
I like a slow , slow collection of all
5:10
those , the main ones in that .
5:14
All right . So this
5:16
next one man I
5:18
have trouble pronouncing this
5:21
this one word in
5:25
the title was a nightmare
5:27
for me in like third , fourth
5:29
and second grade . That's
5:33
also from the thirties man and
5:35
it caused a lot of havoc in the US
5:37
in the early thirties
5:39
because Orson Wells took over
5:41
a radio station and created
5:44
this whole story and
5:46
ran it over to radio because it interrupted like
5:49
the Colgate Theater . I'm
5:52
talking about the war . The worlds and
5:54
people actually believed because
5:57
they didn't have media back then
5:59
to like internet
6:02
, the like fact check things
6:04
, so what they heard on the radio
6:06
was believable
6:09
. You know from the police
6:11
actors , the people dying to
6:13
these strange sounds coming
6:15
out of the ground , you know , just killing
6:18
everybody and wreaking havoc across the States
6:20
. And he
6:23
got in a lot of trouble for that .
6:25
you know , because yeah
6:27
, because the radio was the main thing to communicate
6:29
with everybody , because they didn't have , of course
6:32
, the internet or a lot of telephones
6:34
weren't around everywhere , and the radio
6:36
with the antenna was pretty much how people
6:38
communicated and got news . And for
6:40
him to put a radio show that
6:43
pretended to be like a new warning
6:45
newscast and that the world was being invaded
6:48
, people were losing their minds .
6:49
And I don't know if you've ever seen like
6:52
pictures and like some video
6:55
from that night . When he did
6:57
it it was like in
6:59
a huge like studio
7:02
room and he's surround , he's like standing
7:04
on a platform , and
7:06
then Orson Welles is staying on a platform around
7:09
them , all these actors , and
7:11
then around the actors were all
7:13
the sound effects guys , man , and
7:16
everything was just clicking , you
7:18
know . But the cool
7:21
thing is he took
7:23
over the radio stations as it went
7:25
from east to west . Yeah
7:28
. So for an hour and a half people
7:30
thought they were going to die , I mean
7:32
that had to be scary man .
7:34
They were calling people in the east coast . Is this true
7:36
? Is this true ? And it's like traveling in the Midwest
7:39
. They'd find out slowly and it was just it
7:41
. It seemed like it could have happened that
7:43
way because how it was going across America .
7:45
And don't forget , the phones were different back then too
7:48
. They had more party lines . They had
7:50
, you know , like hey , merrill
7:52
, can you connect me the 227
7:54
, you know .
7:56
And they were probably using a I
7:59
can't remember if they were using Morse code or like
8:01
a different communications
8:03
over to other countries and stuff . And they
8:06
were on radio signals and they were picking
8:08
it up too , Like what's going on and stuff .
8:10
Yeah , so he had a hefty fine , he had to
8:12
pay , and I
8:15
think also hold on .
8:17
Also , I'm sorry you can't . You
8:22
people would listen to the the
8:24
dang it , the rate
8:26
the radio show and they would hear
8:28
it . They wouldn't hear the beginning where he
8:30
was warning that this is just a radio play . It
8:33
was just in the beginning . They told you it was just a
8:35
play and people would just jump in a different part
8:37
to the radio thing if they were late listening to
8:39
it . So they were taking it as fact . That's
8:41
the key point of this whole thing .
8:44
And that's genius . Yeah
8:46
and yeah
8:48
. He got in a lot of trouble for the frenzy he caused
8:50
in the US . What
8:53
you got for number two man .
8:57
Number two Hmm , I
9:00
would have to go Right
9:05
, a Frankenstein All right , I
9:08
see what I mean .
9:09
I mean six .
9:11
Yeah , oh , I'm a universal monsters
9:13
classic guy . Yeah , I mean
9:15
, right , a Frankenstein
9:18
was like the second kind of the seat , equal
9:20
to Frankenstein . They made it better and
9:23
it also I mean it
9:25
includes a whole bunch of stuff that they couldn't
9:27
do and it was just . It's
9:29
a real good movie . It it plus
9:32
you introduce like a female character I
9:35
mean it was more toward the end that she came in
9:37
, but it's , it's
9:39
a real good movie . I think it holds up .
9:42
And you know these movies for
9:45
the time . They were pretty
9:47
scary . Yeah . They gave
9:49
kids who snuck in the
9:51
theaters nightmares . Couples
9:53
like you see them in like cartoons
9:56
, when they like hurried up and hugged
9:58
each other because he got scared , you know startle
10:00
, yeah , and
10:02
the bride was
10:05
crazy looking man and how to
10:07
tear her up with the monster . You
10:10
know , and the
10:13
movie is not long . None
10:15
of the universal horror movies are , but
10:17
they they're to the
10:19
point and
10:22
they have their moments when they're like , oh
10:24
, even I don't know how many times you and
10:26
I have seen these , this
10:29
collection , but it still gets
10:31
me sometimes , you know , like yeah .
10:34
Yeah , Because back then
10:37
you had , like you said , the radio plays and
10:39
the radio . That's where the only thing people had . And
10:41
then the silent movie era and then
10:43
all of a sudden they had talkies
10:45
which the 30s in that
10:48
started . The talkies and people and
10:50
kids actually saw Creatures
10:53
and monsters all the sudden on the screen , talking
10:55
and moving and coming at you . They were freaking
10:58
out like they've never seen that . They would just hear someone tell
11:00
a story with their ears .
11:02
Yeah , that's crazy .
11:05
What's your number two ?
11:06
Well , mine was war of the world , yeah , but
11:09
my number three , yeah , don't
11:11
laugh at this . I'm not laughing up
11:13
and listeners are gonna be like
11:15
she got hit in the head with a brick
11:17
. No wizard of eyes
11:20
.
11:21
Okay , I could see it . I mean , that's
11:23
your . There's no wrong answers
11:25
. Is what you like and what you ? You know what you take
11:27
she played .
11:30
I only know her last name , hamilton . She
11:33
played the wicked witch .
11:36
Dorothy Hamilton no no , no
11:39
, margaret Hamilton .
11:41
Yeah , something like that . But her
11:43
character Was
11:45
so crazy that she couldn't even go
11:47
to the , to the canteen
11:50
, or to actors ate lunch and everything
11:52
dressed like that , because they
11:54
it bothered everybody like
11:56
yeah , and then
11:59
you find out that you
12:02
know she has her flying monkeys , which
12:04
you know . This
12:06
movie gave me nightmares as a kid
12:08
and I never watched a full movie until
12:11
I was in the army and it still bugs
12:13
me this day that I don't
12:15
watch it , you know .
12:16
And it's worse than a slasher
12:19
to me . Yeah
12:22
, because , like we said , it was early
12:24
on in the 30s in that and people are
12:26
so desensitized nowadays with horror
12:29
and scary and that , but back then
12:31
this was . Flying
12:34
monkeys is a crazy concept and if you look
12:36
at the wicked witch , the
12:39
the basic of that in plot
12:41
. I mean she's doing evil things , trying to kill a
12:44
little girl and stuff and and just
12:46
it's real scary . Not
12:48
only the little girl , it's a lot of kids first
12:50
, first movie they see not only
12:53
the little girl , but her dog
12:55
too .
12:56
Yeah .
12:59
For dog lovers .
12:59
That's crazy and you know Her
13:03
character was
13:05
so crazy and she basically
13:07
went through hell because the
13:09
, I guess the , the paint
13:11
that she was wearing Caught
13:13
on fire , yeah , for
13:16
real , yeah , and
13:18
the thing . And then it's
13:20
the only episode of Sesame
13:22
Street that's never that
13:25
they never aired , because it was just
13:27
. You can watch it on YouTube
13:29
, which , it's crazy , that
13:31
lost episode . But she
13:35
played that character . Man , no one could play
13:37
that character like her .
13:40
They didn't do much prosthetics and the green paint was
13:42
almost like her whole shape of her face . And
13:44
whenever she went on public , kids
13:46
were screaming and crying and even adults
13:49
were like spit , not spitting towards her and stuff
13:51
and hating her . And she was , she was
13:53
.
13:53
She took it hard because she was a nice person really
13:55
and even when
13:58
she was dressed normal , when
14:00
, when the tornado first
14:02
came and Picked up Dorothy's
14:04
house and was spinning it and Dorothy
14:07
, like , looked out the window and
14:09
and she was riding the bike , you
14:12
know , like in normal part scared
14:14
me . Yeah , that was scary . And
14:16
then when they wake up it went from black
14:18
and white the color , and that
14:20
was the first movie to ever do that
14:23
like when you see the the
14:25
house owner and her legs underneath yeah
14:28
and then that that sound bite when
14:30
the legs curl up and stuff that .
14:33
That scared the crap out of me as a kid and
14:35
then the , the munchkins , you know
14:37
they were .
14:38
They were good at heart , but
14:40
, man , they were crazy too , like the
14:42
.
14:44
Many group of people dancing around that this lady just
14:46
got crushed by a house . They're like , yeah , I'm like
14:49
whoa , wait a minute .
14:51
So that concludes my
14:53
, my three . What's your
14:55
?
14:55
your last , third one my
14:58
last one , probably
15:02
the original Frankenstein .
15:05
See in it makes about this
15:07
movie it
15:09
so many people . It's a misconception
15:11
that the monsters name is Frankenstein , but
15:13
that's really the , the scientists
15:15
who brought him to life , and he's just
15:18
the monster . They just say Frankenstein's
15:20
monster and now
15:22
that movie is kind
15:24
of censored because
15:27
when Frankenstein's
15:29
, or when the monsters with the little girl
15:31
yeah little
15:33
, the little blind girl he
15:36
chucks her in the river , that
15:39
part of me laugh , even though
15:41
that's her , you know .
15:44
What . What's the scary part is when you see the
15:46
whole villagers and stuff and
15:48
the father of the daughter when he's carrying
15:50
her life was like wet body Walking
15:52
towards town and stuff . That is like creepy
15:55
watching that .
15:56
Yeah , the whole concept of grave robbing
15:59
fresh corpse and
16:02
some mad scientist in the castle
16:04
on top of the hit mountain or hill and
16:07
some hunchback guy like
16:10
being his His
16:13
helper yes , helper
16:15
, assistant .
16:17
and then they bring this dead guy
16:19
back and Give
16:22
him an insane , an insane brain , instead
16:24
of a normal one .
16:26
Right cuz he . He Stole
16:28
the wrong brain . Yeah . But
16:31
yeah , it's a . It's a crazy
16:34
movie and Again
16:36
, that classic holds up to this day
16:38
also .
16:39
We'll have to get these . I got a lot . I got
16:41
like a list of 20 that we can
16:43
somehow get to the fans on our page
16:47
or something , or like how
16:49
we could link a Link to show
16:51
, like the list of 20 movies , the
16:53
classics that everybody should try watching .
16:56
Right , right , I Just
16:58
don't agree . So
17:00
now that we talked about
17:03
Favorite
17:05
classic movie horror movies , let's
17:08
talk about the next
17:10
subject comedy horror
17:12
films . I Know
17:16
you got scroll through the papers there . I'll
17:21
kick this one off with one of my favorites
17:24
. Let's hear it Abbott and
17:26
Castel meet Frankenstein .
17:28
That movie is awesome .
17:30
They , they , they revived Frankenstein
17:33
, even though they used a different actor
17:35
in the movie , yeah , to
17:37
play the monster it
17:40
. It was awesome
17:43
, you know , and I think at the end
17:45
there was a big fight , or was that you
17:48
know , between yeah , bella , go see Frankenstein
17:52
and the Wolfman , I think . And
17:54
that was the last , yeah , bella , go
17:56
see dawned the
17:59
vampire outfit and
18:01
, and I think
18:03
that's the last time , lon Cheney played the
18:06
Wolfman and well , you
18:08
had the .
18:09
Uh , yeah , because you had . It's one
18:11
of the first , if not the first . I can't
18:13
remember that you had Dracula
18:15
, the Wolfman and Frankenstein
18:17
the major monsters all
18:19
in one movie and
18:22
it has the campiness of Abbott and Costello
18:25
and the goofiness . But also you
18:27
look at the story and you got those three characters
18:30
all like they were twined and that it
18:32
was . It's real cool .
18:34
You know , the whole concept is they
18:36
are like Modern
18:39
day UPS . Yeah
18:41
, and so they they
18:44
ship Dracula and the
18:46
monster over in crates to
18:48
to the states and and they get thrown
18:50
in the storage room and
18:53
that's where the shenanigans
18:55
starts happening , you know , and
18:57
.
18:58
And Lon Cheney is trying to warn them . He's like a morning
19:00
. You don't do this . Don't don't take
19:03
the Dracula and the Frankenstein . They're
19:05
gonna . Dracula is going to destroy
19:07
everything . He's you know plotting and stuff and nobody
19:09
listens to him and Lou Lou
19:11
Costello .
19:13
You know he always does a .
19:18
He's got two women wanting him in the movie .
19:20
We're right , and , and along

20:28
, it's hilarious . It's a Halloween Movie
20:31
. It's not really it's scary
20:33
, but it's just a comedy and it's just it's funny
20:35
to watch . I know some people don't like watching
20:37
black and white movies . It puts them to sleep . But
20:40
trust me , this is the one movie you
20:42
got to watch .
20:43
All right , I'll check that out . Uh
20:46
, for my second movie
20:48
, I have a classic
20:50
, but from the 80s gremlins
20:53
.
20:55
Yep you know , that's a good movie
20:57
.
20:57
They go to a china shop and
21:00
and they're like oh , you can't have that , you
21:03
can't have that , you know the guy just
21:05
wants to buy his kid a gift . Right
21:07
, and it's at christmas time , yeah
21:09
, and and the
21:11
the china man says Can't
21:14
have it , you know that's
21:17
not for sale . And they're like , oh , it's
21:20
got rules and all the other stuff
21:22
and and they end up taking
21:24
just like a true american , he does yeah
21:26
.
21:26
Just like a true american , he doesn't take no for an answer
21:28
.
21:28
Well , I want it more now and
21:31
and things get screwed
21:33
up in the movie because , uh
21:36
, gizmo , who's the main
21:38
character , he
21:42
gets wet and
21:45
next thing , you know , he starts spawning
21:47
these demons and it
21:49
like the main , the main
21:51
crazy , what gremlin is stripe ? And
21:55
uh , you
21:57
get all these characters from his
21:59
, the gremlins , and I think
22:01
there's only two of them , the
22:04
uh movies in the franchise
22:06
.
22:07
Yeah yeah well , they just came
22:09
out with a cartoon on netflix or some streaming
22:11
service where it's like a cartoon
22:14
, uh , series of
22:16
gremlins . I can't remember when , the timeline , where it takes
22:18
place , but they just came out with it just
22:20
now this year .
22:22
And when you say animate it , is it like real
22:25
animation or is it like cgi
22:27
kind of like ?
22:27
no , it's , it's real animation , like
22:30
nowadays not come , not 3d
22:32
or is that , but it's like animation
22:35
, but kind of like cool kind of animation . All
22:37
right , but I looked at the trailer I said
22:39
man , it's not for me , it's not . It kind of Deviates
22:42
from the whole first two movies . But
22:44
I mean , the next generation will jump on it and stuff
22:47
.
22:47
And I remember sitting in the movie theater
22:50
during gremlins too , and
22:53
then , if you actually
22:55
seen it in the theater , the
22:57
film melts . Yeah , and
22:59
that's the best people legit like
23:01
they got mad .
23:04
And then they're like yell at the screen hey , hey and
23:06
then who comes to save today ?
23:08
Hulk Hogan , you know like , uh
23:11
, he puts the
23:13
film back .
23:14
They made you think the gremlins were loose in the theater
23:16
you're at and they're showing like backstage
23:19
. And so you're like hey , wait a minute , that's going on right now
23:21
, and like what's going on .
23:23
Yeah , it was crazy and
23:25
uh for that . That's one
23:27
of my comedy horror films , man .
23:30
It reminded me of back the classic
23:32
Horror movie the tingler with
23:34
uh Vincent Price .
23:36
Okay .
23:37
And , uh , they did that in the film . They they were at
23:39
a movies movie place and
23:42
, um , the only way
23:44
you could beat the tinglers to scream yeah
23:46
, the human voice , screaming
23:48
uh kills it . So they
23:50
were in the theater and Vincent Price gets on the screen
23:52
and it's like telling everybody in the theater the tingler
23:55
is loose in the theater , uh
23:57
, scream , scream for your lives
23:59
. That's the only way to kill them . We
24:03
now return back to the movie and
24:07
and at during the premiere , they they
24:09
would have uh buzzers underneath the
24:11
seats and the movie theater for the tingler
24:13
and they would shock the people in the theater and people
24:15
were Actually freaking out watching the movie man
24:18
, you know , we've mentioned Vincent
24:21
Price a couple times , but man
24:24
, he was in so many , so
24:27
much stuff . Uh
24:29
, and I don't have him down on uh on
24:31
any of these lists , but that is one of my favorite actors
24:33
of all time and he has his own list
24:35
of great , great movies .
24:38
I just found out that they
24:40
had like a ? Uh in canada
24:42
Like a tv show
24:44
for kids , like a frankenstein's
24:46

24:54

28:38
just real funny and cheap cheap
28:41

28:46
where everybody your body's put into and stuff .

Yeah , he's one of those actors
30:01
. He's done so many different types of movies
30:03
that you can . It's
30:05
safe to pick any one kind of movie he did
30:08

30:31
could have happened and this could have . They did two or three
30:33
other alternate endings and it's
30:35
just get real camp . The whole movie
30:37
is hilarious and then they show you
30:39

30:41
just real funny movie .
30:43
So check it out . These
30:46
are all great movies and
30:49
I think it's like some of our favorites .
30:52
You have any scary movies ? Scary
30:54
movies , I'm
30:57
telling everybody , sorry if we're not hitting
30:59
all the big notes with the scary and the gore
31:01
and those kind of Halloween and Friday
31:03
the 13th . Well , I can't much
31:05
of a gore kind of guy .
31:07
I got a couple .
31:09
All right , I'll jump on it too , Come on .
31:11
So for the first one , remember banana splits
31:13
, the TV show for kids back in the 70s
31:16
. It's one banana to
31:19
three . So in 2019
31:21
, they lost the copyright for this
31:24
and the
31:26
studio and the amusement
31:28
and Kings Island . They no longer needed
31:31
the banana splits , so they got fired , canned
31:33
, so then they had
31:36
, they became disgruntled and
31:38
then they came back and they started
31:40
killing all the all
31:42
. Like it's called banana splits , the
31:44
movie .
31:46
Oh yeah , I remember seeing that or the trailer in there .
31:48
Yeah , and they all come back and they just
31:50
start hacking up people and
31:53
it's it could be kind of classified
31:55
as that comedy because it's so cheap . But
31:59
yeah , these guys Just
32:01
go . Cycle is funny .
32:04
I can see that because back in the banana
32:06
splits TV show it was that psychedelic
32:09
, crazy , anything goes romper
32:11
room kind of like trippy
32:13
, insane , insanity stuff and I could see them going nuts
32:15
and just all the characters going crazy , killing people .
32:18
Oh , because they got fired . How
32:22
about you , man ? Yeah , well
32:24
, just say you have any of this
32:27
for like Of
32:29
scary , scary movies . Oh
32:31
, I can slap .
32:32
Probably , oh
32:35
, like Probably
32:39
Halloween would be my number one kind of you know what no matter
32:42
how fast you ran , Jason .
32:43
Yeah , that's the whole thing . He didn't
32:45
have Michael .
32:46
Michael he didn't have no like famous lines
32:49
or I'm going to get you , or nothing . He would just
32:51
be there and it's like , ok , I killed him . And you see his body
32:53
like distorted in the background
32:55
and the person's like , oh my God , I got away . And
32:59
all of a sudden you just see a shadow , just him sitting up , and it's like holy
33:02
crap , and he would just not go down .
33:06
The thing that made me mad about that movie so let's
33:11
do it in the check are are like getting it
33:13
on , oh yeah , and he wants a beer . He
33:18
stops and he goes to the kitchen
33:20
or whatever , and he comes across Michael . So
33:23
Michael picks him up by
33:25
his throat , like up , yeah , and then sticks a butcher
33:27
knife right through him and the dude's
33:29
body stays up on the wall with
33:32
one butcher knife , do
33:34
you like ? That makes me mad . And then Michael goes and puts on
33:36
the ghost sheet and she's like hey , baby
33:38
, hey
33:41
. And he's just holding , like his beer can , and she's
33:43
like , hey , you know . And
33:45
then he ends up killing her , you know . So
33:48
to me that's comedy , but it pisses me off
33:50
because , no matter how much , how
33:53
strong , monstrous strong he was .
33:55
there's no way his weight could be held by
33:58
that knife in the in the wall and
34:00
they , they bring that one thing to the table
34:03
.
34:03
And they , they bring that one thing
34:05
back several times throughout
34:08
the whole , the whole series , and
34:10
I'm like they better not do it again . And
34:13
then next time , when he picks him up , sticks
34:16
the and it's not even the whole knife , it's
34:18
just the point in the wall , like
34:20
holding them up . That pisses me
34:22
off , dude , you know . Oh
34:24
, how about another yeah . How
34:28
about this one you mentioned on my side , and
34:30
like him , tim Curry , is
34:32
the original it
34:34
.
34:36
Oh yeah . You know that that's
34:39
bad , that's scary .
34:40
The original is great and
34:43
then the remake is great With
34:47
all the special effects and everything
34:49
in modern day CGI they
34:52
like enhanced it and it got
34:54
scarier to the point where
34:56
the number two movie for
34:59
it made just like
35:01
two years ago , two and a half years
35:03
ago I can't even watch more than 10
35:05
minutes of it and I'm out . You
35:08
know , because if I get startled
35:10
or whatever , I'm like man , I'm by myself
35:13
.
35:14
My wife just my wife can watch that because
35:16
I watch the first it and
35:18
I got through that . But I can't
35:20
like rewatch it . She read the books and then she
35:22
gets real into
35:24
the books about them and then she said that first
35:27
part of the second or the new ones that came out
35:29
. She saw that and she said it was hard
35:31
watching that because it got more like
35:33
the book to where she has
35:36
to do it Watch this part two . But
35:38
she's hesitant on doing it . She knows she has
35:40
to do it alone .
35:41
Yeah , it was . It
35:44
was bad man . So
35:46
do you have a number
35:48
two ?
35:49
I have another one , the
35:51
Shining .
35:52
Good movie . The original
35:55
and the remake are good yeah the
35:57
originals is classic that I like .
35:59
The second , the remake , was my
36:01
, like my wife said , more true to the book
36:03
. But the second one tells
36:06
parts that really tie it more together
36:08
. But the first one with Jack Nicholson , that
36:11
thing scared the crap out of me . You're abandoned
36:13
and by you and your family
36:15
at this hotel . You're watching and the wind
36:18
blizzard and then the
36:20
place is haunted and then just stuff to
36:22
creepiness goes on , like the bathtub
36:24
scene with that old lady . Yeah
36:26
. I can't watch that , that's
36:29
. I look down , I look around . I can't watch it because
36:31
that scared the crap out of me as a kid .
36:34
Well , how about the crazy twins ?
36:36
Yeah , the kids on his power wheels going
36:38
down the hallways and then he just stops
36:40
and then he comes around a corner and there's just two
36:42
twins at the end just looking at him like it's
36:45
like what the heck ?
36:46
And I'm only going to say it one time . But
36:48
Red Rum , I
36:54
didn't say it , so
36:56
don't say no more , because then it would be
36:58
three . Yeah
37:01
, that movie , that movie was
37:04
crazy and
37:06
Jack was an awesome actor and that
37:08
how he went from , like the
37:10
author , the nice guy , you know
37:13
family love , and to here's
37:16
Johnny . Yeah , and that's
37:18
a famous poster , you know that picture
37:20
.
37:21
And then his wife has to deal with him losing
37:24
his mind and trying to kill his
37:26
, her son and him , her
37:29
. And then her son is like
37:31
little possessed and stuff running around
37:33
like just going crazy . It's
37:36
, it's nuts .
37:38
And then for my third one . This
37:41
one's crazy man , but I
37:43
got to add it to it . Never
37:45
ending story . Yeah
37:48
.
37:50
You have the darkness coming
37:52
.
37:53
You have the , the
37:55
rock eater , you
37:58
know . You have elves , you
38:01
have flying creatures , you have bad
38:04
guys , good guys , you
38:06
know , like there's so much going on in that
38:08
movie , and I do believe there's
38:10
three and that's that series
38:13
. It's original 1979
38:16
novel and then 83 they made the movie
38:18
, first movie . So , but
38:21
that movie for its time , with
38:23
the special effects .
38:26
Oh it's , it's , nuts , it's it's
38:28
. There's a lot of
38:30
movies that are scary , but that one , and that's
38:33
bad too , I mean because if you don't , you don't
38:35
think about it as a . I mean it's a scary
38:37
movie because the scene where the
38:39
whole horse in that yeah , my
38:42
wife , I mean I don't know if she's seen
38:45
pictures on the Internet she , she's not watched it
38:47
as a kid . There's some movies your wife
38:49
or husband didn't watch as a kid and you're like , how did you
38:51
survive the seventies or eighties without watching that
38:53
? And she's heard a little bit
38:55
from everybody about that movie and she refuses
38:58
to watch it .
38:59
Well , it's like . You
39:01
see , it is probably one of those saddest moments
39:04
in movie history , if that scene Well
39:06
, you see , the warrior has to run , not
39:08
the ultimate warrior , but the warrior at
39:11
first has to run through towards the light
39:13
and the . The statues
39:16
shot the lasers , fried them and turned
39:18
them to ash , you know . So
39:20
that's the end , or whatever . He
39:22
had to make that run and then I
39:24
had to bully him on top of that in the
39:26
modern world , and
39:29
he totally did . School
39:31
went up to some abandoned store , stole
39:34
a book and that's where we start reading
39:36
it , you know , and it's
39:38
a good movie . Yeah . But
39:41
it's a , it's crazy
39:43
.
39:44
And it's like some , the
39:46
big , ominous , bad is nothing
39:48
, coming at you and taking away everything , the
39:50
nothing . It's like , how do
39:52
you deal with that ? You can't stop it . It's
39:55
like , oh , it's just , it's a mental craziness
39:58
.
39:59
How about you Do ? You got a last one .
40:01
Last one I'd have to go with Nightmare
40:04
on Elm Street .
40:05
Man , I knew you're going to say that for some reason .
40:07
Because it's it's messed up If you think about
40:09
it . It wasn't he like killing
40:12
kids and stuff .
40:14
Yeah , he was the product of a thousand
40:16
, like loonies raping his mom
40:19
. And then he was yeah , and
40:22
he came , they all
40:24
killed them Dream .
40:26
Yeah , they all killed him . But he
40:28
came back and he kills
40:30
you , these teens and
40:32
everybody in your dreams , and
40:35
everybody's trying to stay awake and to avoid him
40:37
. But you're going to . The thing is
40:39
, you're going to go to sleep , you're going to fall asleep , you don't
40:41
know . You're falling asleep and that's when he's going to kill
40:43
you and you're already tired .
40:44
Through different deaths .
40:47
Oh yeah , every way creative
40:49
. He could change , shape , shift and do all this stuff
40:51
. That is insane to think . I'll
40:53
just outlast him , I'll run him . Guess what you got
40:55
to lay down sometime . Close your eyes .
40:57
Right , so he didn't go chasing you like
41:00
Michael or or Jason
41:02
. He
41:04
just waited till he slept .
41:06
And I didn't watch many of the like Halloween
41:08
and Nightmare on Elm Street . I didn't watch a lot
41:10
of the sequels . I just watched the first one of all these
41:12
back in the day , but that pretty
41:14
much was it . I mean , the basic
41:17
concept of that is insane .
41:19
I mean iconic character , you
41:21
know , yes , I'm
41:23
just going to throw this up there . Oh
41:26
, one of the the
41:28
movies horror movies that pissed
41:30
me off Hellraiser
41:32
.
41:34
Yeah , you know I didn't watch that . I just I
41:36
heard about enough of it and seen little
41:38
bits and pieces over the years where I can't watch
41:40
that . That would be too much for me .
41:42
The main characters . In his pinhead right
41:44
he's the icon , he's the poster child
41:47
. But
41:50
he's only in the movie for a damn
41:52
near two minutes . You know
41:54
, he was like John Belushi in Animal
41:56
House .
41:57
Well , also like the Bride of Frankenstein
41:59
Everybody thinks the Bride of Frankenstein . She's
42:01
in the movie the last three to four minutes of the movie
42:04
, that's it .
42:05
And that's all you need .
42:06
Yeah .
42:07
Yeah , that's crazy . So
42:10
we've gone from classic
42:12
movies , horror movies , to
42:14
comedy horror movies to
42:16
favorite slasher films , kind of
42:18
let's throw on just for shits
42:21
and giggles .
42:22
We're going to do porn parodies of Halloween . Oh wait
42:24
, no .
42:25
How'd you know , man ? Oh , let's
42:28
add in favorite Halloween cartoons
42:31
. Oh OK . I'll
42:33
throw my first one out there , all
42:35
right . Yeah , you
42:38
know , there's something about sitting
42:41
at home and
42:43
in and man , unless you were a child
42:46
of this age , you don't know but
42:48
like the peacock it's spun on
42:51
the TV , letting you know that there was a cartoon
42:53
special coming , you know . And
42:55
and then you hear the you
42:59
know if that Albert Halloween special
43:01
dude's one of my favorite all time Halloween
43:04
cartoons . I
43:06
know . Yeah , I know Bill's
43:08
got a bad rep over the last couple of years
43:10
, but he's still . He's
43:12
still my childhood
43:15
, you know . Yeah , and he voiced
43:17
all the characters in Fat Albert
43:19
and I love Fat
43:21
Albert man , you know that
43:24
Halloween special is a little weird because it's
43:26
the the .
43:27
The scary monster in
43:29
that movie is
43:31
spoilers that pretty much that old man .
43:34
No , a lady . It's the lady and
43:36
she's in the cemetery . Oh
43:39
yeah , that's right and I
43:41
was like OK
43:43
. The old man is
43:45
as mudflap he . He runs
43:48
the backyard .
43:50
I remember this one scene where the old man's like
43:52
warning them or telling them something and he's
43:54
like , yeah , just , and he's like eating all their candy
43:56
and he doesn't stop talking and
43:58
eating .
44:01
And nobody . And he ain't taken a piece man , he's
44:03
taking handfuls and sticking in his pocket
44:05
.
44:06
He's taking , he's like yeah , I'll tell you
44:08
more about this . And and when he's talking
44:10
with his mouth full , I'm like you , frickin , and they're
44:12
just staring at him like you , jerk .
44:14
And then they're like hey , what happened to my candy
44:17
? You know , like the
44:20
whole cartoon and makes me laugh . I
44:24
love Cosby in this era . Again
44:27
Got a bad rep now , but you
44:29
know what , when I met him , man , he was cool to
44:31
me . So , yeah
44:34
, he's always cliffhux
44:36
to me . Oh
44:38
, but what
44:40
do you got , man , what was like a childhood cartoon
44:42
for you .
44:44
It'd have to be . It's the Great Pumpkin
44:46
, charlie Brown .
44:48
That was my number two , and
44:50
that is that is by
44:53
far has to be the
44:55
classic cartoon for
44:57
the season .
44:59
The benchmark .
45:01
Right , right , and I do believe
45:03
that was the first Charles
45:06
Schultz cartoon for Charlie Brown
45:09
that he put out , because then he put
45:11
the Christmas episode on right after
45:13
that . Yeah . And
45:15
I just posted
45:17
it on my Facebook the other day because that
45:21
cartoon man , I'll still sit with a big
45:23
bull cereal and
45:25
my inner child comes out on me man
45:27
Like because you lived for that episode
45:30
.
45:30
You there were a lot of us couldn't afford , our parents
45:32
couldn't afford VCRs to record it , yeah
45:35
, so you had to know when that was coming
45:37
on , at what time , and you had to be ready
45:39
to watch that . And there was no
45:41
, it was once a year , that was it . You had to watch it
45:43
.
45:45
And it even came out before VCRs
45:48
. So again it
45:50
was like one of those CBS specials
45:52
and and they had the or
45:54
NBC with the peacock , you know , spinning
45:57
and doing like tie dye , motion
45:59
like tracking , but
46:03
man , I mean , it's a staple
46:05
for our house .
46:06
It has to be watched every year .
46:08
Right and same here , but now
46:10
you can only watch it on Apple TV
46:12
. Yeah . If you don't own a DVD
46:14
.
46:15
Well , they have that Plexa app , yeah
46:17
, where you could record , burn
46:20
your movies onto your computer
46:22
and then stream them onto the Plexa app and then
46:24
you could watch them anytime , anywhere . Oh
46:26
and my brother . He
46:28
takes a lot of my movies and his and puts
46:31
it on his Plexa account and then
46:33
I could watch it . It's from his computer
46:35
and I could watch it like through the app
46:37
at our house and stuff .
46:39
Nice , nice . So
46:41
for me , my next
46:43
one would be
46:45
the Bugs Bunny Halloween special
46:48
. Yeah , and
46:50
for those , we
46:52
have the witch in that and
46:55
she keeps turning , trying
46:58
to turn bugs into some like food
47:00
. He keeps like
47:02
using her spells and turning her
47:04
into like a bat , you know
47:06
, a pocus . Focus Cadabra
47:09
and the whole time like the
47:11
vampires , like smacking the ceiling
47:13
and then hitting the floor and it's back in the
47:15
ceiling .
47:16
He's like Wiley Coyote Everything keeps going wrong
47:18
and he keeps getting hurt .
47:19
Right , and he don't even , and bugs don't even
47:21
know he's doing it . You know , and
47:23
then you think he knows he's doing it because
47:25
he's mischievous like
47:28
that . Yeah . But that
47:30
, that concludes my cartoons
47:33
man . I do believe he man
47:35
has a Halloween special too .
47:37
But I think I know he had a Christmas one
47:39
. Yeah , I know a nightmare
47:42
before Christmas . That's pretty much my
47:44
third one . Did I say third one ?
47:48
Yeah , that's your third one , because just that
47:50
. Well , that would be your second .
47:52
Because pretty much that's like that
47:55
could be a Halloween movie . It could be a Christmas movie
47:57
, but it's really a Halloween really
47:59
because that's when they they
48:02
pretty much it's a classic . I mean
48:05
, me and the wife were Starting
48:08
to date back then when it came out and
48:10
it's just all through
48:13
us . So just we loved classic
48:15
. That hits number one pretty much right
48:17
underneath peanuts .
48:18
I went to music straight in it the
48:22
whole they have the making
48:24
. They have the making of that on Netflix
48:26
and what it took
48:28
to make in .
48:30
Because they go back to the claymation from
48:32
the 80s and stuff they like brought it back
48:34
in the 90s , the early 90s , and it just it
48:37
hits great .
48:39
Right , right , and it holds up . Oh
48:41
yeah . It's still like a big seller
48:44
in the in the states
48:46
and the stores for for Jack and
48:50
his dog Zero . All
48:52
right , so that's we talked
48:54
all movies . We could throw that over a shorter
48:56
now . Cool , let's
48:59
talk about the real nitty gritty man . Ok
49:01
, let's talk about the candy , the
49:04
best candy . Yeah
49:06
, you Well , you
49:09
know what Before the ? Yeah , let's do
49:11
candy , you know the best
49:13
candy . You look forward to
49:15
taking your pillowcase . And I
49:17
couldn't afford a pumpkin . You know
49:19
the plastic pumpkin . So I always had a pillowcase
49:22
and it held more
49:24
candy anyway . And
49:27
as long as I got one I'm going to send you something ?
49:29
Hold on , hold on , hold on .
49:31
As long as I got home before the bag stanchors
49:33
got me , I can
49:35
.
49:37
And the bag snatchers .
49:39
Do you remember bag snatchers ? Because
49:41
.
49:41
I've had . Oh yeah , that was real back then , yeah
49:45
, my niece , my niece's and nephew they're like
49:47
in their 20 or 30 and 20s
49:49
. They like don't believe me that like
49:51
back in the day in the 70s and 80s , they
49:54
freckled kids will go around stealing bags
49:56
, your bags . They would
49:58
shove you , smack you like , spin your
50:00
mask around and they would take your
50:02
bag and run and you lost
50:04
all your candy , all of it , and then you'd have to go back to a couple
50:07
of houses . Yeah , you'd have to go back to a couple
50:09
of houses just to make up enough to go back home .
50:11
And then people would be like didn't
50:13
you come up here already , you know yeah .
50:15
And you're like no , someone just took my bag , yeah , right .
50:18
You know there's only a thousand caspers walking through here . How
50:21
do you pick point ? Pinpoint me that I
50:23
was already here . But the best part .
50:26
Yeah , nobody felt sorry for either of them . The best part
50:28
was back then , trick or treating
50:30
. For us it was several
50:33
hours , like almost the whole night .
50:35
Now it's like two hours .
50:37
Yeah , Now it's like , oh , from five
50:39
pm to fricking like seven pm . It's
50:42
like no , it was all
50:44
the way to like 10 or 11 or something . It was like crazy
50:46
hours .
50:47
And so I know you have a list
50:49
of best and worst candy .
50:51
Yeah , I gave you a little information there
50:53
for your best candy
50:56
.
50:57
What did you like as a number one
50:59
? As for what did Jim like
51:01
, Mine is Reese's peanut
51:04
butter cups . All right , we
51:06
talked about that , the peanut
51:08
butter chocolate stuff on the ice
51:10
cream episode .
51:11
Yes , reese's is pretty much
51:13
the gold standard with candy and
51:16
me .
51:17
That's good stuff too , but I can't eat too much
51:19
of it because it gets too rich . Oh
51:23
, you're so sweet already but
51:27
that's a classic , you can't go wrong on
51:30
the seas . And they
51:32
started becoming like the Reese's pieces
51:35
. Those were great
51:37
. Then they had my number two
51:39
. Oh , and then they had the
51:41
chocolate bar with the Reese's pieces
51:44
in it , and yeah
51:46
, it's just that they're just sticking Reese's pieces
51:48
anywhere they can
51:50
figure out , you know like , oh hey
51:53
, let's cook .
51:53
Do you want ? Do you want ? Do you want Nugget in there too ? Do
51:55
you want pretzel in there ? They're just putting every combination
51:58
with Reese's .
52:00
Right , right . So I got one
52:02
.
52:02
OK .
52:04
I love fun dip . Oh
52:06
, classic , and you know it
52:09
has to . You don't see it no more . But
52:11
it was a three pack , it was the apple
52:14
, it was oh yeah , and it was grape
52:16
, and now you just get a two
52:18
pack and one stick , you
52:21
know , whereas you got the three pack with the two
52:23
sticks . But my favorite
52:25
was , like the Kool-Aid powder . And
52:28
still to this day
52:30
, man , I love fun dips . Man , and
52:33
I think it's blue and that was good stuff and
52:36
all it was was pierced sugar , 100
52:39
percent .
52:40
The stick was it was sugar , yeah
52:44
, the sugar wafer stick . And it's like here put
52:46
the stick in your mouth , get it wet and then dip it in
52:49
the little little kid dust and then just
52:51
more sugar , more
52:53
sugar . Oh , how
52:56
are we going to solve these kids problem ? Let's give them sugar
52:58
and more sugar . Let's give
53:00
them straight sugar and just color it .
53:02
Maybe kids nowadays need to start chucking
53:05
the suckin down some heavy
53:07
sugar like that man and get off the
53:09
pills , they'll start .
53:10
they'll start really living .
53:13
So what's your next one man ? That that
53:15
you looked forward to ?
53:18
Um , I
53:20
said , Reese's pieces is probably my second
53:22
one .
53:24
All right .
53:24
And we pretty much covered Reese's in that first
53:26
part . Reese's pieces too , I'll say
53:28
it . My next one , I'll say Snickers
53:30
.
53:32
All right , that's another one . You can't go wrong
53:34
. You know , in the commercials they have
53:36
like it's a quick pick me up , it doesn't
53:38
pick me up .
53:40
Something with the combination in the peanut and
53:42
the . Was it caramel
53:44
, caramel , yeah , and the chocolate
53:46
? It just it always like , whenever I have
53:48
one , even the bite size , it just it does
53:51
pick me up . It's like , oh my God , that's so awesome .
53:54
Yeah , I like those man when I'm like
53:56
super hungry and I just throw
53:59
one down . Yeah . So
54:02
for my number two Grape
54:05
nerds . Oh
54:07
yeah . You know , when nerds
54:09
first came out they
54:13
had two different flavors and when
54:15
you're done you slide the other , the
54:17
opening open , and you got
54:19
a whole new box of nerds . You know , and
54:22
when Halloween came along , the
54:25
boxes they had like smaller
54:27
boxes . You know , you didn't
54:29
get as much , but you still
54:31
got that two pack .
54:33
Yeah , the double .
54:34
Yeah , and I love
54:36
grape nerds and now nowadays
54:38
they have a chewy
54:41
nerds it's , it's the
54:43
nerds casing
54:45
. Yeah with like the soft
54:47
nerd stuff inside
54:49
.
54:50
It's really science , that up .
54:51
Yeah , it's man . It's so dang good
54:53
Like it brings back .
54:57
Nerds was always the like , the great
54:59
cleanser between all that , because most
55:01
of mine is like chocolate , chocolate , candy
55:03
bar , candy bar , sweet , or
55:05
, and then all of a sudden the nerds would be like would
55:08
reset , reset your mouth with good
55:10
and then it would help you to the
55:12
next flavor and stuff . It was real good
55:14
.
55:15
Yeah , how about you , man
55:17
? What's your ?
55:18
thumb , my third Peanut
55:21
M&Ms .
55:23
Oh , dude , I love when
55:25
I see the yellow pack in
55:27
the , in the bag or the
55:30
bucket , whatever you're carrying . Yeah
55:32
, you know , you got some goodness right
55:34
there , way better than
55:37
just the plain melts
55:39
in your mouth , not in your hand . M&ms
55:41
, you know .
55:43
And yeah
55:45
, because I can do peanut and then regular
55:48
and then peanut butter M&Ms in those order
55:50
, but peanut is pretty much . You
55:52
can't go wrong with a peanut M&M unless
55:54
you have allergies .
55:56
And nowadays they gone crazy
55:58
with the M&Ms and everything in the
56:00
in the shell pretzel
56:02
.
56:03
Chris , crispy pretzel , caramel
56:06
, lukewarm . I don't know what else they have .
56:07
Coffee beans . Yeah
56:10
it's , it's
56:13
too much man .
56:16
What's your third one ?
56:17
I got . I actually have three more
56:19
. All right , so my next bottle
56:22
caps . I love bottle caps , man
56:24
. You have the sweetness and
56:26
it turns Well . At first it's like tart
56:28
, you know , but then the sweet
56:30
kicks in , you know . So it's kind
56:32
of like sour patch kids . But
56:35
you had , you know , the
56:37
sweetness came because it's pure sugar
56:39
, you know . So again
56:42
, I love the great bottle caps
56:44
. You know I
56:46
had a choice with them . But
56:49
how about you ? Add
56:51
.
56:54
I said Reese's
56:56
peanut butter cups , Snickers and peanut
56:58
M&Ms . Those are my three . You want another one ?
57:01
Yeah , if you got it , man , I got two .
57:03
Kit . Kats .
57:06
Again , they overkilled it right now
57:08
, because in Japan James , you're killing me In
57:11
Japan there's over 250 flavor
57:13
Kit Kats .
57:14
I didn't see , I don't know that . How's that ?
57:16
Is it , man ? They got like wasabi flavor Kit
57:19
Kat . They got look it up
57:21
, man , how many Kit Kats .
57:22
I'm gonna have to see how send it with the chocolate . Melt
57:24
it without melting . I wonder how they send them .
57:26
I don't know , but classic
57:28
Kit Kats are good stuff
57:30
, man , and I like the extra large pack
57:33
. Oh yeah , just
57:35
cause I'm a fan of that , I see that at the store
57:37
.
57:38
At the store they sell that sometimes those monster
57:40
sized Kit Kats or candy bars . Yeah
57:43
. That's insane . I mean , you'd have a diabetic
57:45
coma if you did that .
57:47
Yeah , I agree with that one . So
57:51
for my fourth one , Okay
57:54
. All right , chuckles
57:57
.
57:59
Chuckles huh .
57:59
So like they're like these jellies and they
58:02
are red , they're green , orange the
58:04
black , and
58:06
red and yellow . A
58:08
lot of people hate the black cause it's got the
58:10
black licorice flavor . Yeah
58:12
. But if you read my notes , I got
58:15
chuckles , especially the
58:17
black ones . All right
58:19
, I love them , man , to this
58:21
day I find like the mini
58:24
chuckles at Albany's , and
58:26
even though they're not normal , but
58:29
those five little pieces of candy has just
58:31
disappeared so quickly .
58:34
I don't think I really ever had chuckles . I'm gonna have to get
58:36
a box now and see what Scott's talking
58:38
about .
58:39
And they're just like jelly man , the sugar jelly
58:41
. And Okay , how
58:45
about you ? You got any more on the list ?
58:47
Uh yeah , A classic
58:49
Hershey's bar , just plain chocolate
58:51
.
58:52
Plain chocolate .
58:53
Although I don't mind an almond with almond in
58:55
it . I don't mind that too , but pretty much a
58:57
plain Hershey's bar . I just want
59:00
chocolate .
59:01
That's good stuff , but you know a lot of people in
59:03
other countries they absolutely hate our
59:06
chocolate because our chocolate
59:08
is bitter . Yeah
59:10
. But a
59:13
good , I like almonds as
59:15
well . With the Hershey bar Plain
59:18
, like you said , man , if
59:20
you drink it or if you eat it with like some coffee
59:22
, it like melts that in
59:25
there and hell , just open
59:27
the Hershey bar , throw it right in . That's called Hot
59:29
McDonald's coffee and
59:31
you got some new flavor , man . You got like
59:33
syrup , chocolate syrup , in it . Yeah
59:36
. So that's some good
59:38
stuff and I
59:40
am finishing up my favorite list
59:42
with classic
59:44
Mike and Ike's . I
59:47
like that , that's good . It's a candy
59:49
coated licorice . They
59:52
look like pills . I
59:54
really dig that . I
59:56
dig the original flavor . But
59:59
now they got like five or
1:00:01
six of those you know like tropical
1:00:03
Mike and Ike's and and you know
1:00:06
what . You could throw any of those at
1:00:08
me , man , I'll be a little happy fat kid
1:00:10
.
1:00:11
That pills reminded me my dad used to do back in the 80s
1:00:13
to mess with people's mind and make them laugh
1:00:15
. He would have
1:00:17
one of his old pill bottles that were empty and
1:00:19
it would still have the label with his medication on it , but
1:00:22
he would put like M&Ms in there and
1:00:25
whenever he'd go somewhere he'd say , oops , time for my
1:00:27
medicine . He pulled it out and put it
1:00:29
out and it looked like his medicine was M&Ms and stuff and
1:00:32
then he'd just get people laughing and stuff or break the ice
1:00:34
.
1:00:35
Yeah you look like
1:00:37
a pill popper , Just like . What's this guy ? Oh
1:00:39
my God , is this guy's crazy .
1:00:41
It's freaking medicine , m&ms . I got
1:00:43
to throw one more in . I got to throw one more
1:00:45
.
1:00:45
Snow caps . I love
1:00:48
snow caps . Oh , I had , though . Yeah , I haven't had those
1:00:50
in years .
1:00:51
Those are pretty good . You could buy them at Dollar General big box for a buck
1:00:53
.
1:00:55
Or you can go to Albany's and buy them for 4.99
1:00:58
a pound .
1:00:59
It's like that chocolate circle disc with
1:01:01
the white white , white , white , white , white
1:01:04
, white , Snow or something on it , yeah
1:01:06
my wife .
1:01:07
She actually takes like when she makes
1:01:09
popcorn she pours the
1:01:11
snow caps on top of it .
1:01:14
There we go and we're going to have to have an episode
1:01:16
where we have , like , theater
1:01:19
, theater , concessions
1:01:22
yeah , concessions , different
1:01:25
things people do and tips and
1:01:27
tricks .
1:01:30
Do you have any more favorites or are we moving on
1:01:32
to the next category ?
1:01:34
Pretty much . Butterfingers and Payday are the bottom
1:01:36
two with the peanut butter type and the salty
1:01:39
peanut type with that .
1:01:41
Yeah , I'd take a good payday .
1:01:44
That's about it . I mean everybody . Listeners
1:01:46
, tell us what your favorite candy is
1:01:48
.
1:01:49
So moving on , because this episode's
1:01:51
going to be long , I know .
1:01:53
Yeah , we're warning everybody .
1:01:55
But we're moving on . You know we're moving
1:01:57
along , we're trying so from our
1:02:00
favorite candy . When
1:02:02
you looked in the bag or bucket or hand
1:02:05
or pocket , whatever you put it
1:02:07
in what did you
1:02:09
see in there ? And they're like oh man , I
1:02:11
hate that stuff . Or those cheap
1:02:13
asses . You know
1:02:16
I'm talking about like dumb , dumb
1:02:18
suckers . I'm
1:02:21
people like like them , but I I
1:02:23
hated them . I personally hate suckers
1:02:25
.
1:02:26
Jimmy , jimmy like dumb dumb as a kid . So
1:02:29
we pretty much got little dumb dumb as rewards
1:02:31
and stuff . But he kind of grew out of it
1:02:33
. He doesn't unless you know you
1:02:35
. It's kind of that thing like at a doctor's office
1:02:37
back in the day they have dumb dumb . So okay
1:02:39
, I'll take a dumb dumb Right . It's not
1:02:41
a preferred choice .
1:02:43
And then they get all sticky anyway . Yeah
1:02:45
. I'll
1:02:48
start this one out here . Okay . Oh
1:02:50
, dumb dumb is up there , but it's not on my list
1:02:52
.
1:02:54
Candy corn yeah , that's
1:02:56
pretty much the universal number one .
1:02:58
And then I find out that candy corn may
1:03:01
have been made like 10
1:03:03
years back and they just keep like recycling
1:03:06
the candy because nobody is buying
1:03:08
it .
1:03:09
Every 10 years they make a batch .
1:03:12
And , and there's different flavor
1:03:14
corn candy . Well , it looks like
1:03:16
it , but it all tastes the same .
1:03:19
You know , $1 store candy corn .
1:03:20
You're like candy corn chocolate , all right
1:03:22
. And then you eat it , man . It tastes like regular
1:03:25
candy corn .
1:03:26
So much should make like a recipe book with just
1:03:28
what to do with candy corn to make it into
1:03:31
ingredients in a food or something .
1:03:33
Yeah , you open up a bag and throw it away
1:03:35
.
1:03:35
Dump in garbage .
1:03:37
Dump it , man . How about you ?
1:03:39
Um , I'd say circus peanuts
1:03:41
have to be underneath . Candy
1:03:44
corn is one of the worst .
1:03:45
Man , see , I love those as a kid , I
1:03:48
don't like them now , you
1:03:50
know , uh , my grandparents
1:03:53
, they were poor , so like
1:03:55
they would always say , oh , if
1:03:57
it wasn't a Werther's , it
1:03:59
was that circus peanut , you know , and
1:04:01
I can't stand Werther's , but
1:04:03
the peanut man it was
1:04:05
a weird kind of like packing peanut kind of
1:04:08
taste .
1:04:09
It was just sugar . It
1:04:11
was weird . Yeah .
1:04:13
Yeah , it was like a porous
1:04:15
textured .
1:04:16
Uh , I think now , now
1:04:19
it stays . I don't see a lot of people with the list
1:04:21
I have , we have here . We have a lot of people
1:04:23
handing any of these out , but back when you
1:04:25
and me were a turk or treating back in the day
1:04:27
, this is what they would hand out . You
1:04:30
, you , you were rare to see the good stuff
1:04:32
. It was a staple .
1:04:34
Yeah , I think what it was was people were
1:04:36
cleaning out their cupboards from the year
1:04:38
before that they bought too
1:04:40
much of , you know , at Harvey's
1:04:42
Dime Store or uh
1:04:46
, or Zare or Kmart .
1:04:48
Or they give you , like they give you pennies , and then they
1:04:50
would give you these bad things You're like oh my gosh
1:04:52
, come on .
1:04:53
Yeah , so how
1:04:56
about next one man ?
1:04:59
Um wax Coke bottles .
1:05:01
Oh dude , I eat those still to this day
1:05:03
.
1:05:04
Oh those are . It was never enough . It was
1:05:06
like you bite off the cap
1:05:08
, like the top , and spit it out , and then
1:05:10
you're like you drink and it's like two
1:05:12
or three drops and you're like , well
1:05:15
, that was nothing you know I need , like I need to
1:05:17
have 10 of them just to fricking even get a taste .
1:05:19
See , for me , I , I would just like
1:05:22
throw the whole bottle in and just
1:05:24
keep chewing , yeah , like , if
1:05:26
you like , in the military you
1:05:29
don't always have access to a teeth toothbrush
1:05:31
right off the bat , so , like when I see
1:05:33
the wax , it cleans my teeth also .
1:05:37
See you're talking survival . I agree
1:05:39
with the survival .
1:05:40
Yeah , but you get that one drop of juice .
1:05:43
Like this . This reminds me of Afghanistan
1:05:45
. I'm , I'm , I'm , you know , on on wax . Now
1:05:48
I need someone to shoot it . Someone just
1:05:50
shoot at me . I feel at home .
1:05:53
Put the gun down , scott . All
1:05:56
right , dude , my number two . This
1:05:58
may be controversial . All right
1:06:00
, I cannot stand whoppers oh
1:06:04
wow To this day . I hate
1:06:06
those malted chocolate balls
1:06:08
, dude .
1:06:09
I hate whoppers too .
1:06:12
I don't know what kind of chocolate they use , but
1:06:14
I hate it . I hate that , the
1:06:16
flavor of whatever the hell
1:06:18
, that that mulch , the
1:06:21
whatever that crap .
1:06:22
It was like . It was like an explosion of like , like
1:06:25
powder , mall , malls
1:06:27
, and it would just in your mouth . You're like what
1:06:29
the heck did I do ? And you're like spitting
1:06:32
it out .
1:06:32
Right , Right .
1:06:33
It's like and he had that lingering taste
1:06:35
.
1:06:36
It made your mouth drier than Gandhi's sandal
1:06:38
. It just like absorbed . It
1:06:41
was like a chamois on your mouth .
1:06:42
It was just like suck , you need a
1:06:44
drink , you need a drink with it . And my wife
1:06:47
, she said , yeah , I like whoppers and I'm like no
1:06:49
, I don't , I never liked whoppers . No
1:06:51
, no , the only thing as
1:06:53
bad as a whopper if a candy thing
1:06:55
I would put on my list which it's not
1:06:58
on my list , but it's probably
1:07:00
Heath bars .
1:07:02
You don't like .
1:07:03
Heath bars , no , it kind
1:07:05
of like ranked with whoppers to where it tasted
1:07:07
weird and I'm like I don't like this . This
1:07:09
tastes so weird .
1:07:10
See , I don't like Heath , but I like score
1:07:13
. Now I kind of
1:07:15
right there to that hard nugget , yeah
1:07:18
, but the chocolate's
1:07:20
a little bit better . Okay , what
1:07:23
do ? You have for your next one .
1:07:25
My worst . Next one is
1:07:28
probably those Neco wafers .
1:07:32
Like the space looking one
1:07:35
.
1:07:36
It's like a church
1:07:39
, the Holy Communion wafers
1:07:41
, but it's like a flying saucer disc
1:07:43
and it have like a
1:07:45
confetti , rainbow confetti
1:07:47
inside , just like the cake topper
1:07:50
or muffin topper
1:07:52
kind of stuff .
1:07:53
Right right .
1:07:54
That's inside , you like , bite it open
1:07:56
and it's hollow and these , like little beads
1:07:58
would just go all over . And you're like , look , the head is this
1:08:00
? And you're chewing
1:08:03
it . And you're like it feels like I'm tasting a piece
1:08:05
of plastic that just fell on the floor . I don't understand
1:08:07
. It
1:08:10
was real complex .
1:08:12
So for my next one , I hated
1:08:14
them because they are the destroyer of teeth
1:08:16
. Oh , jolly Ranchers
1:08:19
, yeah . And
1:08:21
then they tried to up
1:08:23
it back in the day . These
1:08:26
are no longer around and I don't know
1:08:28
why . But you had the Jolly
1:08:30
Ranchers but then they came out with the Jolly Rancher
1:08:32
sticks and you
1:08:35
don't ever see those no more . So
1:08:37
were they that bad that they
1:08:39
had to get rid of them .
1:08:41
But nothing like biting down in
1:08:43
a Jolly Rancher at first and
1:08:45
you can't pull your teeth apart or
1:08:48
pulls your feelings , or pulls the feelings
1:08:50
, or Because Jolly Ranchers
1:08:54
used to scare the shit out of you back in the day because you
1:08:56
would chew on it or suck
1:08:58
on it and it would stick to the roof of your mouth or stick
1:09:00
to a tooth or something . And you're like freaking
1:09:03
out your tongues , like trying to whip it like a loose
1:09:05
and you're like what the hell's going on ? It's stuck
1:09:07
forever and you're like freaking out .
1:09:09
And then a toothbrush . Yeah
1:09:12
, a toothbrush won't even like like
1:09:14
brush it out . No , I really stick like your
1:09:16
fingernail or toothpick or four .
1:09:18
Your brother's trying to lodge it out with a stick or something
1:09:20
like what the hell Told you never to eat
1:09:23
these , then you go to the emergency room ? No
1:09:25
, but the stick's probably got stuck in someone's
1:09:27
mouth and like choked or something back in the day
1:09:29
.
1:09:32
Could , be .
1:09:32
Those little cubes of death were like bad
1:09:34
back in the day . They'd stick to anything
1:09:36
.
1:09:37
I know , I know one person . He
1:09:39
still loves the sour
1:09:41
apple . Jolly Ranchers eats
1:09:43
them like he's
1:09:46
, like one after the other , is a chain eater
1:09:48
of Jolly Rancher .
1:09:50
I remember now that the Jolly Ranchers you had
1:09:52
to keep it on your tongue when you're sucking it . That
1:09:55
sounds dirty and like it
1:09:57
would . You'd have to keep it in the center of your mouth
1:09:59
. You couldn't touch any of your teeth or the other roof or
1:10:01
nothing , until it like got down a
1:10:03
little bit and then you could like have it roll around
1:10:05
your mouth .
1:10:08
Are we talking about the candy Jim ?
1:10:09
Oh , my God you're going to take . You're going to take this audio
1:10:12
and make it sound real bad for me . The
1:10:18
next one I would have to have is We'll
1:10:23
see . On the list it says peanut butter kisses .
1:10:25
Yeah .
1:10:26
I think those , those would have to be
1:10:29
probably right up there , because they
1:10:31
were the weird blobs
1:10:33
of a peanut butter
1:10:35
and it would be in a black or orange
1:10:37
twist waxy paper . Oh
1:10:43
yeah , they're really .
1:10:44
Came in like an orange or black wrapper
1:10:46
.
1:10:47
Yeah , and waxy . And then you you'd
1:10:49
taste it Choo , choo , choo and
1:10:51
the flavor is gone in a second and it's just this
1:10:53
glob kind of left over
1:10:55
and you're like this is you'd have to
1:10:57
eat 100 of them just to get a taste .
1:10:59
It's like it's not the real . What
1:11:02
paper bag dude .
1:11:03
Yeah , exactly , and it's not like equality
1:11:05
peanut butter tasting .
1:11:08
My last one on my list . It
1:11:12
has . It means something different
1:11:15
, but it's the name of the candy Mary
1:11:18
Jane's . I don't like
1:11:20
. Mary Jane's . Those are another ones that stick
1:11:23
to your teeth .
1:11:24
Yeah , like Jolly Ranchers , those were like holding
1:11:27
on to you .
1:11:28
And they're meant to be soft .
1:11:30
Yeah , you know , and it would take
1:11:32
a long time before that thing was chewable . I
1:11:34
mean you would like Jolly Ranchers that
1:11:36
break your teeth . You had to wait
1:11:38
half an hour to suck on it . But Mary
1:11:40
Jane's right there too .
1:11:42
Yeah , I wasn't taking those
1:11:44
.
1:11:45
I mean I I'd take them because grandma offered
1:11:47
them . But there's no way . I mean
1:11:49
, those were like you know , you're in for it .
1:11:53
So we got our candy
1:11:55
. We threw away the bad candy
1:11:57
or gave it to our brother or sister . Yeah
1:12:00
. But the
1:12:02
whole thing for the night , is
1:12:06
that the one thing that
1:12:08
kids look forward to every year ? To
1:12:11
get that candy they
1:12:14
had to dress up . Yeah
1:12:16
, and back in our
1:12:18
day . Back in our day .
1:12:20
Yeah , tell them Scott .
1:12:22
We had like nowadays
1:12:25
, everything looks really
1:12:27
cool . I meant with like the , the
1:12:30
latex that looks like like skin
1:12:32
and all that . But not in my day
1:12:34
, right , damn it . No
1:12:37
, they had to go to Harvey's and
1:12:39
go to the rack and
1:12:42
pick out , like the Hard
1:12:44
, either Frankenstein
1:12:47
or Casper mask , and
1:12:49
the mask was held on by two staples
1:12:51
, with a piece of rubber band that
1:12:54
always hurt when you pulled it off your head
1:12:56
, yeah . And then a
1:12:58
nonfire proof plastic
1:13:02
outfit that if you walk
1:13:04
by any heat you're going to be hurting
1:13:06
because it's stuck to you , yeah
1:13:08
.
1:13:09
But I like it's like a plastic
1:13:11
paper bag you were wearing .
1:13:13
Yeah , it's like no , ma , please don't tell
1:13:15
me where it is . You know , and then you like
1:13:18
.
1:13:18
I just costumes to tear so easily
1:13:20
.
1:13:21
Yeah , or the rubber band pop on the staple
1:13:23
and you're like you
1:13:25
know .
1:13:26
So it was so your kid , your
1:13:28
kid , walking up holding you're holding it by your
1:13:30
chin because it broke off and you're
1:13:32
still trick or treating .
1:13:34
Right , right , you know , or or
1:13:36
you have to like shorten
1:13:38
the rubber band and make like a little
1:13:40
hole and tie the rubber bands . Now
1:13:43
it's , it's like even
1:13:45
tighter on your head .
1:13:47
Or your brother or cousin , like pulls the back string and
1:13:49
breaks it .
1:13:50
Oh yeah , or just pops you in
1:13:52
the head with it , but
1:13:55
you know .
1:13:56
You know , my cousins did Well . We had a lot of homemade
1:13:58
costumes . They , our parents , wouldn't even let
1:14:00
us buy the cheap bad masks they would
1:14:02
like I can make you something or I'll make that
1:14:04
, and it would never look like what
1:14:06
you wanted .
1:14:07
No , no , back when you could be a whole
1:14:10
back .
1:14:10
When you could be a hobo or a bomb , they would just , you
1:14:12
know , take dirt on your face . What's
1:14:15
that ? Man oh oh
1:14:18
, oh , we were all hobos
1:14:20
.
1:14:21
Yeah , I had like a old man's
1:14:23
rubber mask . It again
1:14:25
came from Harvey's but it was a full
1:14:27
fledged mask but it never
1:14:30
matched up with .
1:14:31
Gary too .
1:14:32
But they didn't match up with the eye holes or
1:14:34
people . So many people like put
1:14:36
it on back in the day that the mouth
1:14:38
was .
1:14:41
But it's the only one left .
1:14:43
Yeah , you know , and you got that from Spencers
1:14:45
and and and that was cool
1:14:47
. But now I got to look like an old
1:14:49
man , but I'm only like four
1:14:52
foot tall and and
1:14:54
they would have only small , like rectangles
1:14:56
for the eyes that didn't line up Right
1:14:58
.
1:14:58
And then the mouth rectangle was a little bigger
1:15:00
. But you knew every kid that tried it on put his
1:15:02
tongue through it , going out .
1:15:04
You're like oh , and then
1:15:06
what With that rubber mask
1:15:08
and the lice filled hair , because
1:15:11
everybody put it on ? I
1:15:14
had oversized , oversized flannel
1:15:16
, you know like didn't
1:15:19

1:15:30

1:15:31
So , like I'm like walking around like this
1:15:33

1:15:46
Halloween costumes . Man , how
1:15:48
about you ?
1:15:50
Um , a lot of
1:15:52
my like back in the day
1:15:54
. You like Spider-Man , you would just wear
1:15:56
like the pajamas Spider-Man , or
1:15:58
?
1:16:00
not , you're right .
1:16:02
No , not that they
1:16:04
would just have like long
1:16:06
like blue , long johns kind of bottoms
1:16:09
, yeah , and then like
1:16:11
a Spider-Man t-shirt or
1:16:13
something and then or a long sleeve shirt
1:16:15
, and then you just have . They would might
1:16:17
get you the good , the good Spider-Man mask , or make
1:16:19
or sew one , or somebody yarn or something . Or
1:16:23
. Yeah
1:16:26
, pretty much . I was Spider-Man one time . I remember that
1:16:28
that was fun .
1:16:31
I was a stripe from Grimlins
1:16:33
. Oh my God , they gave me like
1:16:35
a hoodie .
1:16:37
You just graduated college .
1:16:39
That was probably like 12 . I
1:16:42
had the stripe mask that
1:16:44
came off .
1:16:45
Oh yeah , the horn , yeah yeah .
1:16:47
And there was a full fledged mask
1:16:50
, a hoodie , because
1:16:54
there's no upper
1:16:56
body part for it , so I just covered up with a
1:16:58
hoodie they do in a movie . And
1:17:01
then these rubber fingers that weren't
1:17:03
even the same color as the face , you
1:17:06
know . It was like oh , those witch's hands
1:17:08
are great with that green mask
1:17:10
.
1:17:11
And as a kid I remember my mom
1:17:13
like pairing me and my older sister who was like
1:17:16
a year , two years older than me . They'd
1:17:18
make us like couples costume . Like she would
1:17:20
be raggedy and I would be Andy and
1:17:24
I like yeah , and I know
1:17:26
I didn't like it and stuff , but I had to wear it , yeah
1:17:28
. And then , or else she
1:17:30
would be like a cheerleader
1:17:33
and I would be a football player
1:17:35
, a blank football player , with like the
1:17:37
white generic helmet and the
1:17:40
black smears on the eyes . Yeah
1:17:42
. But it wasn't nothing
1:17:44
extravagant and stuff , but
1:17:47
that's what that was later in like my twenties and stuff where I would be like
1:17:50
one year I was mankind
1:17:52
, the wrestler . Yeah . I
1:17:55
had a great mask and then one year
1:17:57
I was Jason With the hockey mask . I had my
1:17:59
dad's snowmobile suit and
1:18:02
I would just walk around real slow and not say
1:18:04
nothing and scare people .
1:18:07
That's . Those are classics .
1:18:10
And then the one thing we did back in the day I want to
1:18:12
tell everybody it's an old concept
1:18:14
, nobody does Cause . We said we used
1:18:16
to trick or treat real long
1:18:18
all night . Me and my cousins
1:18:20
went there was like six
1:18:23
or eight of us and we would take a whole
1:18:25
neighborhood in Portage and then we would go
1:18:27
to like Chesterton and do a whole neighborhood
1:18:30
. We all night would do different neighborhoods
1:18:32
and what we would do we go through the neighborhood
1:18:34
and we get to the end of the neighborhood . We
1:18:36
would switch costumes and
1:18:38
go back through the neighborhood the
1:18:41
same neighborhood with everybody wearing
1:18:43
a different costume . So they couldn't say we
1:18:45
came because we're different heights and sizes
1:18:48
.
1:18:48
On that , so
1:18:50
, so would you like to go
1:18:53
to all like the rich neighborhoods ? No
1:18:55
, there was back in the day , was .
1:18:58
Yeah , it was pretty up there . But no
1:19:00
, we would just basic neighborhoods
1:19:02
and we would just a
1:19:04
block or two and then go to another town
1:19:06
, and go to a block or two and then go another town and
1:19:08
we had these huge
1:19:10
pillowcases just full of came . I
1:19:13
mean , we used to hit a lot .
1:19:17
Now when you say hit a lot , you weren't wearing those
1:19:19
bag stanchers , you weren't hitting . No
1:19:21
, no , okay .
1:19:23
There was a lot of us , so we were in this group
1:19:25
where there was . I mean , we didn't get attacked
1:19:27
or nothing stolen , but because we
1:19:29
were in a gang mentality , but
1:19:33
we saw a lot of kids get their stuff stolen , stuff . And
1:19:36
yeah , here's a couple of candies from us and
1:19:38
that's it . Yeah .
1:19:43
From there I used to
1:19:45
be my favorite and
1:19:47
I still do it to this day Soldier
1:19:50
, Soldier . I still wore
1:19:52
the camel , wore
1:19:55
a little little army hat , you
1:19:57
know , like the old , cheap
1:20:00
Harvey green bucket
1:20:02
. Yeah , I did an army one on one time
1:20:04
and I still
1:20:06
dress up in it Like not green
1:20:09
bucket , but I became
1:20:11
the All-American .
1:20:12
You did it as a kid , you lived it , and
1:20:14
then you do it again . Man , it's easy , it's a go to .
1:20:17
Right , right People like it . There was Sharon
1:20:19

1:20:20
What are they going to expect ? Scott powers the chef
1:20:23
or Scott powers the plumber ? No , we
1:20:25
want the soldier .
1:20:30
That , looking over my notes , man
1:20:32
Looks like we've
1:20:34

There you go , man .
1:25:25
Oh , thank God .
1:25:26
So you're two for 20 .
1:25:28
Great , I can't get nothing
1:25:30
right .
1:25:31
I'm getting respect .
1:25:33
Hey , I wanted to run this theory by you .
1:25:35
Okay .
1:25:36
It's the Gilbert Godfrey universal monsters
1:25:38
theory . Sadly
1:25:40
he passed , but on his podcast years ago
1:25:43
he said the universal monsters
1:25:45
are A
1:25:47
theory , like uh , they represent life
1:25:49
. Frankenstein
1:25:52
represents a baby . When
1:25:56
you're a baby , you're confused , you just want
1:25:58
to be , uh , loved and accepted
1:26:00
and you're thrown into life , just
1:26:03
like Frankenstein . Yeah , the
1:26:05
wolf man represents adolescents your
1:26:08
body , your body , your voice , everything
1:26:10
is changing and
1:26:13
you have no control over it . Dracula
1:26:17
represents young adults . You
1:26:21
want , you want , oh
1:26:23
, hold on , every guy wants to
1:26:25
. You want to be , every guy wants to be Dracula
1:26:27
. You want to control women and be charming
1:26:30
, just like Dracula's
1:26:32
power . The
1:26:35
mummy represents old age . You're
1:26:37
slow , you're feeling dead
1:26:39
, you're trying to resurrect an old love .
1:26:44
Okay .
1:26:45
Okay , and I threw . I threw in . That's his
1:26:47
uh four , but I threw in
1:26:49
. The invisible man represents
1:26:52
middle age between Dracula and the mummy
1:26:54
Cause . The invisible man became
1:26:56
invisible . Nobody pays
1:26:58
attention to you , you go insane
1:27:00
and the police try to hunt down and kill you , just
1:27:03
like when we're all in middle age . Yeah
1:27:08
, yeah . So it's like stages of
1:27:10
life each monster represents and where
1:27:12
you fall . It's
1:27:15
just an interesting theory .
1:27:17
And the creature trying to get to the
1:27:19
, trying to get to the Olympics , is
1:27:21
that that's stage when you're like workaholic
1:27:24
, uh , buff guy .
1:27:27
I couldn't think of the . Yeah , they
1:27:30
try to resurrect the earth , uh , this ancient creature
1:27:33
, and then the creature goes crazy .
1:27:35
Yeah , I got . I got one more
1:27:37
question man . Okay
1:27:39
. What was Beetlejuice almost
1:27:42
called .
1:27:44
Uh , crazy
1:27:48
dead guy , I don't know .
1:27:49
Scared sheetless . Uh
1:27:54
, it's terribly beautiful
1:27:56
. It's a . There
1:27:58
you go there's . We hope you
1:28:00
had fun on this episode
1:28:02
. Uh , I
1:28:04
always like sitting with the man , just because
1:28:06
me , yeah , yeah , because
1:28:08
we're so close to age man , we've had
1:28:10
almost we've had a lot of the same experiences
1:28:13
. Uh , other planets growing up and
1:28:16
we . I
1:28:18
really like this memory lane stuff
1:28:20
. You know , like Lynn was good , but
1:28:23
she's like 13 years younger than
1:28:25
me and and it don't seem like
1:28:28
a lot .
1:28:29
Yeah , 13 years is a lot , you
1:28:31
know on that note , I'd like to announce
1:28:33
I am no longer with this podcast
1:28:35
and I'm throwing
1:28:37
my resignation in there . I don't
1:28:39
want to be loved .
1:28:40
No , I
1:28:42
mean my wife's older than
1:28:44
me . So it's
1:28:47
not much , but it's still
1:28:50
big enough that our
1:28:52
differences yeah
1:28:55
.
1:28:55
Yeah , you're a man stuck in between time
1:28:57
. You don't know you have to relate with something .
1:29:00
Right right .
1:29:01
You're between generations .
1:29:02
So if people have any
1:29:05
kind of like holiday or Halloween
1:29:07
traditions , we
1:29:09
always say and
1:29:11
I gotta have Jim threaten you a little bit
1:29:13

1:29:15
times to like

And the longer you guys hold out on telling
1:29:46
us information , the longer Jim's
1:29:48
going to stay on this program . So
1:29:50
he's going to be like
1:29:53
that bodyguard in the background
1:29:55

1:29:57

1:35:15
brought back something that I haven't
1:35:17
had since . Like the first season , I
1:35:19
used to give the quote of the week .
1:35:21
Oh , is it a rash oh .
1:35:23
Yes , yes , I was wondering , man
1:35:25
, you got another quote this week .
1:35:27
I have a quote . It's a quote , it's not really
1:35:29
words of wisdom . I'm trying to like
1:35:31
veer different ways , but it
1:35:34
is from Vincent Price . It
1:35:37
is just as much fun to scare
1:35:39
as it is to be scared
1:35:42
.
1:35:45
We really hope you enjoyed this show . Kind
1:35:47
of like a memory throwback for us
1:35:49
and , you know , like modern
1:35:51
day stuff going on in Halloween
1:35:53
, it seems
1:35:56
like the one holiday where traditions
1:35:58
aren't broke . You go get your candy . You
1:36:01
know , no one does tricks anymore for treats
1:36:03
, no , it's just give me candy
1:36:05
. And hopefully , don't forget
1:36:07
kids . If you're
1:36:09
listening to this , say
1:36:12
thank you to the people that
1:36:14
spent their 50 bucks for a
1:36:16
bag of candy that
1:36:18
the give you the fact that someone is even giving candy
1:36:20
? Right that much money
1:36:23
. Say thank you , man
1:36:25
, because that goes a long way
1:36:27
and it shows that you have a little respect
1:36:30
.
1:36:30
So and it makes an old person smile
1:36:32
when you say old manners , thank you , and
1:36:35
please . And don't forget people
1:36:38
giving candy . If you see a teenager
1:36:40
or an older kid or even an adult , you
1:36:42
know they're dressed up or you
1:36:44
know not much of a costume , give them candy
1:36:47
. I mean , just give candy . Who
1:36:49
cares ? Don't be a stickler at the door
1:36:51
and don't give nothing . Come on .
1:36:53
Right , right , and don't put 50 dum-dums
1:36:55
in from one house in the bag , because that's
1:36:58
a corn in the garbage . Yeah
1:37:00
. Or at a doctor's office
1:37:02
. So , but that's
1:37:04
all I got . And I have a new song to
1:37:07
add into this . I never know the title
1:37:09
, but this one I'm calling my
1:37:11
Halloween song . Awesome
1:37:13
, it's just called my Halloween song
1:37:15
AI . So if you're listening , I mean
1:37:18
it's called my AI
1:37:20
or my Halloween . Get it right
1:37:23
. So that's
1:37:25
, that's all I got and that's
1:37:27
