Ghost Video, Halloween Chaos & When Kids Go Solo

from Laughter Included · host Johnny Mack & Ricky G

It’s the Halloween edition, and the dads are in their bag: childhood chaos with eggs and shaving cream, Costco candy temptations, the big-bowl etiquette dilemma, and a heated candy draft—Reese’s vs. Kit Kat vs. Snickers. Ricky relives an emotional NHL homecoming, Matt’s bowling team nosedives, and John debates when kids can finally trick-or-treat without a parent shadowing them. We also trade scariest-movie picks and Matt drops the story of a ghost caught on camera in an old New England house—plus a rapid-fire “Can You Name Them?” on top candies, festive states, and horror films. If you’re a 35–60 dad who loves laughs, nostalgia, and a little spooky…this one hits. Highlights include: • Ghost video that still freaks us out • Best vs. worst Halloween candy debate • When kids can trick-or-treat alone • Bruins captain homecoming emotion • “Can You Name Them?” Halloween edition • Green screen…exposed (for real) Stick around for timestamps to jump right to the good stuff.
