We're brainstorming Halloween costume ideas because, once again, we will be enjoying Spooky Season together. We've got so many good options. We discuss problems at a big festival causing people to evacuate, and we are starting to think there are too many festivals, and they're getting crazy with litter, consumerism, crowd control, etc... One thing is certain, pyrotechnics are almost always a mistake. And Sarah wants to ban fireworks (don't tell Adam Butler). We find out about a student who brought fart spray (whatever that is???) to school as a prank, but it ended up being so toxic that several kids had to go to the hospital. Susie hates pranks even more now. We discuss a man who claimed he unearthed the world's oldest amphitheater, but suspicions were raised when people noticed that the venue was made entirely of modern materials. We discuss the "last meal" that death row inmates get, and share what we would choose if we were them.
