Tariffs, Terrors, Tricks, Treats and Trauma: They're All Related

from Ranting Out Loud: An LGBTQ+ perspective on life, love, politics and chaos · host Lee Swift, Chadrick Douglas, Producer Mike

Halloween may be Chad's Super Bowl, but this year spooky season comes with tariffs, sky-high craft store prices, and Hobby Lobby pretending the holiday doesn't exist. The crew riffs on candy rationing, ICE costumes scarier than any ghost, and why Black Mirror feels less like fiction and more like 2025's to-do list. Plus, a love letter to Allison Janney, Jordan Peele's brilliance, and the eternal truth: white people in horror movies never turn on the damn lights.
