00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 1: Caloroka Shock Media. Hello, I'm Johnny Man with five good

2
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:19,039
news Halloween stories. This is just fun to do. Mix

3
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,480
it up a little bit. Instact Arts looked at your

4
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,399
shopping data from twenty twenty four and they have determined

5
00:00:24,719 --> 00:00:29,000
the most popular Halloween candy in the United States of America.

6
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:30,440
Do you have a guest? Do you want me to

7
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,000
tell you whether they or not? Peanut M and M's

8
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:37,159
that was second, regular, Eminem's finished third. Now I personally

9
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:38,719
love pean at M and Ms. Every time I walk

10
00:00:38,759 --> 00:00:40,439
through the kitchen, I grab a handful, which is why

11
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,200
I have a giant belly. But I digress. The number

12
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,439
one candy is Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, and if you

13
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,640
hand me those, they're gone in one second. So I

14
00:00:48,679 --> 00:00:52,320
agree with instacart. Here, a trends analyst at instacart said,

15
00:00:52,359 --> 00:00:55,119
we're seeing households start to shop weeks ahead, not just

16
00:00:55,159 --> 00:00:57,960
to be prepared, but because Halloween has become an experience

17
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,479
people stretch out and savor. I mean some people are

18
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,200
even doing ridiculous podcasts weeks in advance. They tell us

19
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,599
whether it's nostalgia classics like Raeses, or polarizing favorites like

20
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,239
candy corn. These streets are part of the traditions that

21
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,000
make Halloween feel special. Halloween spending is expected to reach

22
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,400
a record thirteen point one billion dollars this year, and

23
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,280
one Vermont library is helping families keep the holiday fun

24
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,439
without breaking the bank. The Richmond Free Library hosted their

25
00:01:24,519 --> 00:01:27,879
second annual costume Swap. Here's what you do. You bring

26
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:29,760
a costume you're done with and you pick a new

27
00:01:29,799 --> 00:01:32,439
one that's brilliant. Because I hang out at this brewery

28
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,560
and they have a costume contest every year, and I

29
00:01:34,599 --> 00:01:36,400
wind up spending money on this thing I wear for

30
00:01:36,719 --> 00:01:39,959
ninety minutes while drinking two beers. Why do I do it?

31
00:01:40,079 --> 00:01:42,920
I don't know. The library director in Richmond said the

32
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,799
costume swap is a great way to get in the

33
00:01:44,799 --> 00:01:47,159
Halloween spirit, save some money, and make good use of

34
00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:50,079
our resources as a community. Halloween costumes are something you

35
00:01:50,159 --> 00:01:52,200
only wear once and by next year might not even

36
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,519
fit your kid, It might not fit you as an adult. Yes,

37
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,040
they were grabbing a handful of peanut m and ms

38
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:58,799
every time you walk through the kitchen. I could see

39
00:01:58,799 --> 00:02:02,359
where that would happen. The Naples Zoo at Caribbean Guardians

40
00:02:02,519 --> 00:02:05,719
is bringing back Boo at the Zoo for another year. No,

41
00:02:05,879 --> 00:02:08,039
just the name Boo at the Zoo. I'm in This

42
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:12,199
sounds amazing. The zoo is magically transformed to a living

43
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,280
movie scene, complete with costume characters and trick or treating

44
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:18,240
for kids twelve and under. What about people fifty five plus?

45
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,039
Can we do it? No? Oh? Okay, laugh in the

46
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,560
face of dangers. You meet a dinosaur sail away with

47
00:02:23,599 --> 00:02:28,360
pirates on the Pirate Expedition cruise and meet mini unicorns. Hmmm,

48
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,199
I wonder what those look like. That sounds fun. It's

49
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,960
this weekend. You better go October tenth through the twelfth,

50
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,919
then again October seventeenth through the nineteenth, nine am to

51
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,639
one pm. The zoo asks if you come in costume,

52
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,159
make sure your costume is family friendly and definitely not inflatable.

53
00:02:43,199 --> 00:02:46,520
Inflatable ones could scare the animals. I'm assuming that's if

54
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,719
an inflatable one were to pop. We don't want to

55
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,039
startle the gorillas. I don't know if they have gorillas.

56
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,520
Can I interest you in a lego Halloween wreath? It's

57
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,080
only six hundred and seventeen pieces. You'll put it together.

58
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,400
In ten minutes. The Lego box comes with five different

59
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,280
packages of pieces, along with an instruction booklet. Well that's good.

60
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,240
Once it's all built, you insert the string, you hang

61
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,560
wherever you hang your Halloween wreath. Not on a minute

62
00:03:09,599 --> 00:03:12,080
of the story. Is Halloween wreath even a thing? I

63
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,439
guess it is, And it's made out of lego? And

64
00:03:15,479 --> 00:03:17,319
this was so much fun last time I thought a

65
00:03:17,439 --> 00:03:20,280
double dip on the knockoff Halloween costumes. Let's see what

66
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,639
I have for you today. Here's one. Some people might

67
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,520
describe it as a turtle, maybe even a turtle that

68
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,280
has been part of say, radiation, and turned into a

69
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,879
mutant of sorts. Well, this is not that. This is

70
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,560
pubescent frog of Silent War. Yes it's not some sort

71
00:03:35,599 --> 00:03:37,840
of mutant, but could be a teenage This is a

72
00:03:37,919 --> 00:03:42,319
pubescant frog, totally different. Do you like video games? Do

73
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,199
you sometimes play the one with it actually has turtles,

74
00:03:45,199 --> 00:03:47,879
It's got a couple plumbers in it. Two brothers. One's red,

75
00:03:47,879 --> 00:03:49,800
one's kind of green. Well this is not that at all.

76
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,960
This is the green Italian plumber costume. And I'm wondering

77
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,159
if he has a brother with a mustache that's red.

78
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,599
Italian plumber costume. And you remember that famous movie with

79
00:03:59,719 --> 00:04:03,000
Gene he was selling chocolate. There were some people that

80
00:04:03,039 --> 00:04:05,000
worked for Gene Wilder in the movie. They even sang

81
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,800
a song This is not that at all. This is

82
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,319
factory worker girl. You gave yourself some orange skin a

83
00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:13,439
kind of I don't know, is it a shag haircut,

84
00:04:13,719 --> 00:04:16,920
and you sing your song with your fellow factory worker girl.

85
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,639
Why did you start laughing, John? Because I accidentally scrolled

86
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,480
down and I'm not going to get to it today,

87
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,959
but the next one is creepy husband. That's what made

88
00:04:23,959 --> 00:04:26,040
me laugh. Okay, so back to the bit. Okay, So

89
00:04:26,519 --> 00:04:28,600

00:04:30,639 --> 00:04:32,839
