Featured, Hobo Radio, Jim Carrey, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Tommy Lee Jones

This week, Joel Murphy and Lars try to get to the bottom of what was really going on in Halloween Town in The Nightmare Before Christmas, including how many dead bodies were stacking up and if Jack ever visited the St. Patrick’s Day town.

Lars also recaps his Halloween, the boys reveal the original ending of Pretty Woman and they refuse to sanction Jim Carrey’s buffoonery.

Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego? How much crack did Vivian smoke in the original script for Pretty Woman? Who was the original hipster? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “Up All Night” by Cathouse Prophets

When you are young, Halloween is all about fun costumes and copious amounts of candy. But for two curmudgeons in their 30s like Joel Murphy and Lars, today is all about good movies and bad puns. They share their picks for the best Halloween films and also share their most groan-inducing holiday puns.

This week also has the return of the Netflix Game, complete with three Halloween-themed films. Baltimore Joe and Mr. Periwinkle also discuss the Redskins controversial name, the tragic beauty of horror films and the all-new premium Hot Pockets.

What movies should you be watching tonight? Did Jack and Sally really have Halloween on Christmas? What do Irish ghosts drink? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “O Fortuna” by Dr. Phibes and The Ten Plagues of Egypt
  • End – “Halloween” by The Coffinshakers
