Hi Everyone!
It's Halloweeeeeeeen! And time for our encore holiday episode celebrating candy and the commercialization of the spooky season!
In these strange times we take you back to the more innocent days of childhood. Stealing a bowlful of Halloween candy from your neighbor’s porch seems like a gentler crime from gentler days…but there is a social contract involved! You aren’t allowed to trick anyone who has left you a treat. That’s the rule. So once you are found out, you’d better apologize. We walk through the history of Halloween, how it took root in America, and what grew out of it that lead to a child in Wisconsin breaking with tradition and stealing all the candy from a neighbor's porch!
What other social contracts are being violated? Regulations around our national food supply? A short but rousing vegetarian approved sidebar that may just make you choose a salad for lunch. Or maybe KFC really is the only thing standing between your eyeball and a hungry chicken?
Note: discussion of a public shooting begins the episode.
