The Halloween Episode: Candy, Costumes, Razor Blades, and Full Size Candy Bars

Halloween’s not just for kids...or is it? Neil and Ali get into it: cabbage night crimes, the end of childhood, and why middle school might be the real horror movie. They compare notes on trick-or-treating, revisit ‘90s Halloween glory (The Mask, Point Break, The Great Pumpkin), and debate whether Jimmy Kimmel deserves to be canceled… again. The guys wade into the great candy corn debate, revisit the classic Halloween film Hocus Pocus, unpack the economics of pumpkin patches, and discuss the trauma of store-bought costumes. Neil recounts dressing his baby in 31 different outfits, Ali relives the glory of his Reagan-era costume win, and the guys explore how Halloween went from one night to a month-long consumer spectacle. Somewhere between spooky and sentimental, this one’s a classic.
