Old school right now week nine Thursday, bro with our
Halloween candy deep thoughts, and we are gonna definitely dive
deep like we're uh Jaq Coustell give me another diver.
(01:16):
Greg Lugatis, Yeah, man, but you know what, I just
had an ep fanny epfany the way people are divided.
Yeah on candy corn. By the way, that just means
I had a deep thought in the bathroom while you
were being in a Piefanyah. I know it happens. Candy
corn is very divisive. So no family agrees. We know
(01:37):
nobody agrees. People hate it, people love it. You got
your show divided.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
I love it. I'm so surprised. Dan Bayer loves it
because he likes nothing. Yeah, well he likes kid food, Yeah,
chicken nuggets and stuff. Yeah, Iowa Sam hates it, hate it,
hate it.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
But the fact you hate it it just I'm happy
because it proves my point that a group of friends,
a family, you're coworkers, you're never gonna have a unanimous
we all love or all hate candy corn. Well, on
National Candy Corn Day, Who's the candy corn of sports?
It's gotta be Lebron James, right, because for everybody it
loves them, someone hates him, Like there's gonna be a
(02:12):
house divide. Rogers the candy corn of sports, the candy
corner of the NFL. Also, you could argue, is everything
revolving around Taylor and Travis like a lot of people
beautiful I think, say Aaron Rodgers, That's what I thought.
Also Aaron Rodgers might be there's people that love him,
(02:35):
but more more, more hating than love. I think device
the board, deviceive guy. The most divisive guy, I'd have
to say is lebron But anyway, because this National Candy
Corn Day got us thinking back in the day, throwing
it back on a Thursday, getting you involved eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox, what was the candy that
(02:55):
your parents always stole from you? Because remember we go
up in the eighties, a lot of us even earlier
than that. For some of you, parents always checked the candy.
I still do that, do you guys still do that
a little bit? And I'm really just checking for again
what I want, but just to make sure it's safe.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
You just really take them to get X Rayder. Was
that a big That's a big But.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
The reality is I think tricker treating yes, but trunk
or treat at the school, they you have to bring
prepackaged candy. They divvy eat up for the cars like
you don't need to be checking out In the day
they used to check for razor blade.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
You know that.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
That was a lot of people looking from my grandma's
generation the great They would make their own candy, their
own confections to give up give out because it was
cheaper to do, I think during during some hard times.
So and there were some bad actors, you know, play.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
These are days of rotten apples decades circus, peanuts and
candies wrapped in that house gets egged. So what were
the candies that your parents were stealing from you? And
then Rich put up a second question. It was a
lady at my block grown up and gave out a
little piece of fudge that you have some I got
(04:02):
some fun for you, Sam, you just unlocked a memory
because you know it. There was definitely an old lady
in the block that had like individually wrapped little playing butterscott.
That's so funny, dude. True, You're absolutely right about that.
People took pride in that. And what was the first
time we're getting this voice. By the way, I like that, Sam, Yeah,
you're the new old guy in town or old lady
(04:24):
whatever that whichever. Yeah, what is the old candy that
you actually like? I think the idea you said there's
a number one. I think the idea of going through
your kid's candy and saying, like I'm checking for it,
I just take it, and I call it the dad text.
And I also feel like, there's no way your kid
can eat all that candy. My wife will be like,
(04:44):
stop picking at the kid's candy. I'm like, you think
it's okay for a kid to have a barrel? Cats
and Sour Pats started that witch switch sort of thing
where you would take the candy and getting a toy
or something instead, or that's what they need, more toys.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
I don't know, I know where you're surprised or I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Was it Jimmy Kimmel who did the bit where the
parents told the kids they ate their candy while they
were sleeping.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah, that was the last funny thing he did. Dude,
I forgot about that. Yeah, that is it? So rich?
You got us on the edge of our seat. What's
the old guy candy that you can't live with them?
I feel like I'm the lone guy because my wife's like,
take them, no one else wants them. I'm like you,
for real, I got two, but one is a far
number one for me. My runner up. Iowall house TUTSI
(05:32):
rolls like nobody's business, and it seems like no one
else loves the little mini tutty rouse, the fruit flavored, the.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Cherry yeah are good. A lot of times there's stale though.
Those are the cheaper bad Like I bought a bag
of candy, and those are the cheaper ones, like that
variety of TUTSI roll dots.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Yeah stuff, he's TUTSI yeah, Well it's funny you should
say that, Sam, because the number one answer you just
named my favorite cheap guy old guy candy. I feel
like no one but me he loves dots. I love dots.
They get stuck your teeth. Give me a hug. I
was saying, I love dots, and my wife's like, you
like dots? Who likes dots? They just they're gooey sticking
your teeth and no one likes I go then give
me all the dots. The dots all right? So is
(06:11):
there an old guy candy you vounch for I'm just
gonna shout out Smarties because they're from my hometown of Union,
New Jersey, and not Canadian Smarties. Canadian Smarties, I think
are made by like they're like chocolate. Let me actual
smart as candy. Let me make it very complete. And
they were pills, right yeah, let me make it drugs.
Let me make it very clear. You want all these
old guy candies. They that's what they sell at the
(06:32):
Dollar Tree. Like if you go to the candy aisle
at the dollar Store Dollar Tree, it's all the old
Like if you ever wondered where they sell the individually
wrapped strawberry candies that look like little strawberries. If you
ever wondered where they sell individually wrapped life savers that
they give away at the strip club bathroom. All this,
all the mints, they are the mints that look like
life savers, right, all at the Dollar Tree.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
We went in the Dollar Tree last week, everything and
there was two dollars and fifty cents.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Wait, where do grandma's get those strawberry cans? That's not
the same thing. Yeah, all right, So we go to
the phones at eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox
eight seven seven ninety nine, on Fox to break it
down as far as what was your dad's stealing back
in the day and what do you actually like.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
About did you tell us code which which candies your
dad stole?
Speaker 2 (07:18):
You know, I totally remember your parents stealing your candy
as they checked through it, and I'm thinking, like back
and I'm thinking it's like butterfinger.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
And there's another one that my dad would always that's
a good one. My stepdad would steal that and put
them in the freezer.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Yeah, because and I didn't mind. I don't because I
didn't want them. But now now as an adult, I
like them. But my dad would always take those and
it was something else sunny edge of my I tipped
my tongue. I just remember my dad would grab milk
duds and like sugar baby, sugar daddies, any type of
like Caramelli, chocolate fun.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Right, right, So we're going through the phones reminiscent a
little bit. We do this every Thursday.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
It's Halloween Eve, Mischief Night, whatever, eight seven, seven ninety
nine on Fox. Who do we got Let's go to
And by the way, you know how Dan Patrick makes
people give their height and wait and all that. Yeah,
before you give your answer. You have to let us
know if you're yeah your nay on candy corn, just
to sort of just to prove the point that the
world's divided, to set the table. Candy corn guy, Candy
(08:15):
in Mississippi. What's up, Andy?
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Hey guys, I got a couple of things real quick.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
First of all, when you're talking about egging and rolling
people's yards, we forked, plastic forked a yard. That's a
lot harder to clean up.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Just forks all inside the grass.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Yeah, that's a good one.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
Box the forks, plastic forks and you stick them in
the yard.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
No, you know what we would do too.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
We would take garden gnomes from all over the town
and leave them on someone else's house.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
And then as far as the candy corn, my dad
used to mix Spanish peanuts with the candy corn. Get
a sweet and salty.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
So I ask you, so, I ask you Andy, before
you hang up here? Are you a candy corn guy?
I am?
Speaker 4 (09:01):
But I got one more thing for you. Hear me,
candy corn. They're gonna get too pregnant.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
This is Tracy Morgan. What is going on? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Why did you just turn into mister Hyde? There just
like I think. I think when they got coughed, a
different something entered his body. He was like possessed by
the devil or something, or he's hanging with Tracy likes either.
Hold on God Baker in Illinois? What's that Baker? Baker?
Speaker 5 (09:40):
First off, I have never stolen candy from my children
that they know about, and the candy corn is gross
by itself. But like first the last gay kind of
stole my thunder candy corn with cammon and peanuts mixed.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Then twist peanuts and candy gard I will try that.
You know em and m. Peanuts are the number two
selling candy in the United States, the number one selling candy.
We mentioned this a couple of weeks ago, but Reese's
Peanut butter cups are still the number one selling Halloween
candy every year. I want to hear an embarrassing stat
doesn't have to do a candy, but for anyone that
(10:21):
talks about how people are tough and rough on money
and the times are tough, Americans spend seven hundred million
dollars a year on dog customs. I'm not surprised, dude, Yeah,
I'm not surprised. Who else do we got trip what's up?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Trip trip, Mgney, what up trip?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Hey, gentlemen.
Speaker 6 (10:40):
A quick egging story. I was with my buddy one
night and he's like.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
You drive, I never get to throw the eggs.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
He rocks and fires an egg.
Speaker 6 (10:47):
He didn't roll the window down, so the first his
own car.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
I remember going to get eggs as a kid, and
it was like the only time I did because I
was trying to be a good kid. They're like one
of theborhood little uh lamp wicks. She's like, can't Richie
go get eggs? Come on, what are you scinny? I'm
surprised that the convenience stores were so willing to give
up eggs to like young kids. Interestingly enough, the guy
the seven eleven is like, I'm not selling you two
(11:13):
dozen eggs kids. I go, why, He goes, what do
you need these eggs?
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Hard?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I said? I was quick on my feet. I go,
my mom's making omelets, and he let me buy them
because quick making cookies from making night Oh you know.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
I thought of a mom candy. My mom would dip
into my mix.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
My mom would dip in and steal like sweet tarts,
even though I love them too, But she'd always steal
the Sweethearts and Mary Jane's Oh I love Mary Jeans.
Can I tell you? I will say an old person can't.
I'm not saying they're not good, but you're not getting
the variety you got when we were kids. Let me
explain when we were kids. I don't know about you.
(11:53):
I work the freaking neighborhood I was helping about. I'm
going back with pillowcase. Like you, you'd break out a
big bag or can you know's ad a pillowcase. You'd
go into other neighborhoods. You'd work your ass off. You'd
be like, wait, that big house in the rich neighborhood
gives out full sized Hershey bars, kings, I go for kings.
You would work your ass off to get a barrel
of loot and candy and you'd sort it out, and
(12:15):
you're right, your parents are check it. But you at
a variety candy you never heard of, even mixed in.
Like Sam said, like old old Lady Old Lady McGee gave.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
You fudge, you'd get a what you might call it bar.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I feel like everyone gives out the same variety pack
of kit Cat Hershey, Snicker, Milky Way Dusty, like coffins
full of hard candy.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Remember those, I will say dusty things.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
It's sort of boring and I'm not trying to sound
like the old guy, but my kid's candy basket was
like the same five candy. Just a lot of it
happen Alexander, the Great Snickers, Milky Way kit Cat, Yeah, Twigs,
sour Patch, sweetish fish, you variety like six things that
are just you know, you might get a someone may
give you like an airhead, or it's laffy taffy that
(13:01):
you know, it's the same variety packs that everyone's buying
at the super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
You mentioned our other theory while we talked about candy
real quick. It's National Candy corn Day, by the way,
so we're going over the candies your parents stole from
you and your favorite old guy candy and everything else.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Could I guess that I was. Sam's going to disagree
with you? Oh yeah, I always. Sam is the contrarian
of Halloween candy. Our theory pens and it's a proven
theory because we've worked in many of different offices. When
Cindy from accounting puts her little bowl of candy out,
or even your little candy display at home. It's always
the yellow wrapped candies that are left over. It's always
(13:35):
yellow starburst, yellow laffy taffy. It's always a yellow wrapper
that's left over. It's the lemon or banana that's left over.
If we didn't experiment here at FSR, if we put
if you brought in your leftover halloweens, favorite's what's a
close second? Grape? No orange, isn't it?
Speaker 7 (13:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Probably like orange starburst. I feel like they'll be like
a grape blowpop. Don't like the grape pop. I like
grape blaffy tat like people would take that. People want
the regular blow pop with the green apple, but the
great apple.
Speaker 8 (14:05):
I love grape anything. So when he brought up Alexander
the Grape, that was my go to with that movie
theater I was a.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Good fan of. They were called cherry clans back in
the day, cherry heads now lemonheads. Alexander the Great Johnny
Apple treats. I used to love all those. I think
they're called terra pan or fererra pan or something. I
used to love those hard candies. Hey, dB, how about
those great Mike and Ikes?
Speaker 8 (14:29):
Oh yes, the best and you don't see him everywhere,
kind of like the hundred grand that we've talked about before.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Your dad would still great treat plenties. Yeah, I like
the black My mom stole it off the Black liquors,
and you you would be like, yeah, take these, I
don't want them anywhere, can I tell you? I mean
maybe my kids school just went the easy way out
and got so much of the same candy. But you
guys just mentioned candies that did not make my kids
trunk or treat basket. Mike and Ike couldn't plenty the
(15:00):
blow pops. I'm telling you, so many people just go
to the local supermarket or Target, and like Sam said,
there's the cheap variety pack and the expensive variety pack,
so your kids are dealing with a mix of the
same eight. I thought of another one that we got
that you won't get today. Remember we were little. They
would sell like little milk cartons full of gum and
orange flavor gum, great gum. It look like a tiny
(15:23):
little milk cart and it was like little pe peck.
Speaker 7 (15:25):
We have.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
We had more variety for sure. And by the way,
retraction the Lemonhead Candy company, that's Ferrara Candy Shop. Ferrara candy,
and they had a whole line of great hard candies
when we were kids. They still exist, but you're right,
you don't see them. You see those same variety, boring
target variety packs that you get.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Everyone has the same one. Switch it up. That's a
great reminder.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Switch it up because your kids in your neighborhood will
appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Throw some zots in there. You know what you do
in August or September. You go down the candy aisle
of like a CBS or Walgreens, and you pick out
different bags like the same stuff, and mix it all together.
You'll have a niceariety for the children's zots. Bro, we
don't want those neco wafers. We want some zots. But
what were the uh, what were the things that you
would bite off the paper?
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Like candy dots? Is that what they're called?
Speaker 2 (16:12):
And sometimes even in your east in your Halloween basket,
you like sugar button, Yeah, sugar button. Remember also little
a little waxy the wax bottles of like liquid in them. Yeah,
these are things that no one's handing out.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
How about the fun dip? Dude?
Speaker 2 (16:27):
What fun dip? I think I grew up on? Fun
fund was snorting fun dip. You know what, here's the reminder,
the reminder on Fox Sports Radio. Get something different, honestly,
because you will see when your kids are trigger treating
trucks or treading, they don't have as much fun stuff
to steal.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Like I want to steal some pixie sticks.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
But you know you're you're gonna see just one hundred
tiny little Snickers bars or milk not even milk dots,
crackles appearance and mister goodbar comes back.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Crackle stinks, I know.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
But you know what, mister goar and the yellow wrapper, right,
that's that's the cheaper variety peck that'll be. It'll be
left over all right. So we'll wrap it up with
your phone calls having fun talking Halloween candy. And another reminder,
this is a lot of people say is Thanksgiving. This
is the beginning of the slippery slope, guys, the slippery
slope of the holiday. Wait, because it starts with this
Halloween candy. It's National Candy Corn Day. We're going to
(17:20):
the calls. Who we got Mark, Mark and Carson City,
what's up?
Speaker 6 (17:24):
Hey, I got one for you. Yeah, I had a
neighbor that police gave out zots Oh my god, I
just said that.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, I love those are the ones that fizz in
your mouth.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
I never had one, so five years ago mark five
years ago, because I had never tried one. Cavino actually
got old school candy szots and I tried it on
the air.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
And I was like, yeah, this is how coold. I
like fizzy in your I was like, ALC, I love.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
Yeah, that's what I did. I would take like ten
of them and and before my kids would see me
and chew on them and tell him I got bit
by the dog.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
You know, those might be my favorite, like older candies
because they're old, they go way back, and yeah, I
love those. They're hard to fight. You can find them
at like candy shops. Yeah, we we lack some good
foaming at the mouth pranks these days. And uh, pop Rocks,
What was the last time you saw pop Rocks? When
you when you're high school?
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Girlfriend?
Speaker 2 (18:16):
At uh jeff and Detroit? What's up Jeffy with some guys?
Speaker 5 (18:22):
What's funny is I My dad used to steal my
one hundred grand bars from me.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Oh and that's a crime, it's and.
Speaker 6 (18:30):
Now I do now that's what I steal.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
I don't even like you nailed it.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
You nailed it. And that's probably why I fight for
them and like them so much now, because my dad
would always steal those. Those are my absolute If anyone
gives a Diddley squat, those are my favorites.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
So I'm with you. Those are the ones. If those
are ones I'm stealing, it's like a deficiency because you
were deprived.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
I was derived, So now I steal them from my kid.
That's that's my answer.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Man.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
I've always had the deep thought though, guys, what we
all do buy these candies and chocolate and sour patch
and all that for our kids around holidays and Halloween,
Easter baskets, Christmas, all this stuff. I do wonder, like,
who's buying a candy bar on a regular basis other
than like a road trip where you might stop in
a wah wah or a seven eleven or a Bucky's
(19:17):
or something better?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Question who's buying like a Clark.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
But that's what I'm saying, Like when you see like
a segment when you go to the counter and you're like, man,
there's a baby ruth. Is someone randomly on a weekly
basis grabbing a baby roof?
Speaker 6 (19:27):
Yet?
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Or hooked somehow.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Malar has talked about this on one of his podcasts
where there was some study and most of the purchases
are right there at the cash register.
Speaker 8 (19:35):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know what world you live in,
Rich Davis, but it is a common practice in my household. Yeah,
you know, they're right, They're right in front of you.
They grab them, they have the sales sign.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
I guess that's when I buy. I guess that's when
I buy like gum or I'm a sour patch guy.
Maybe I'm just more of a sour Yeah. A lot
of the grocery stores sour shoes guy.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
A lot of the grocery stores, right under the candy bar,
it'll say buy one, get one free, and that you
have the buyolog.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
At Ralph's, which is the big supermarket chain out here,
what is what's a parent company for RALF Kroger? So, yeah,
the Kroger's out here owned by Chad Kroger. Little note
Nickel his rock fortune went to supermarkets. They'll have like
the candy and it'll say five for five dollars, so
you think you have to buy five, so you do,
(20:22):
and then in the small print its like or a dollar.
Rich you just buy five of them. You have another
childhood memory. I bet you forgot about. Do you remember
some neighbors assigned from the old ladies that would give
you their homemade fudge, which I think is hilarious because
it's true. Some families would give you like McDonald's coupons
and they're McDonald's coupon. Oh how like cookies or.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Like a Sunday Like, oh, yeah, you're right man.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I think the greatest point we made out of this
conversation is that kids don't have the same variety that
we had growing up.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
True, we had all sorts of variety.
Speaker 5 (20:53):
Man.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Oh that is the biggest bummer, because you're right. I'm
thinking how much some there that stupid variety pack has
ruined Halloween.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
I totally forgot about that. I remember when you're getting
a Dairy Queen gift certificate.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Yeah ponds, man, they'd be like, yeah, someone would buy
a pack at them and they get a kid. You
know it was I remember McDonald's one specifically back on
the Iowa Sam tip of like old lady, they gave
you fudge, you.
Speaker 9 (21:16):
Watch them fudge. I got homemade butter scotch. Oh yeah,
you don't have to x ray you can trust me. Thanks,
old Lady, my budger to come back next year. If
I'm an we love your shree hundred thank you.
Speaker 10 (21:35):
I was.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
I might be dreaming this, but I swear there was
a woman in my neighborhood, Old lady. They gave out
like candy apples, dude, of course, the biggest candy apple

Speaker 2 (23:13):
So she's enough. She's on the fence, man, She's on
the fence. That's why I gotta throw some peanuts in there.
Maybe she'll change your mind, all right, turn it into
a paid day's.
Speaker 8 (23:21):
Do you guys know how much it hurts my feelings
that you put her on. Like in the last second
of the show when I leave, it's like you are
so excited. Rich almost hit the ceiling waving to Mancy
just as she was back. It's all Rich, Yeah, the
same thing let's get Moncey's thoughts.

Let's get Dan out of there. You know that's how

In fact, I'll take that.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Thank you Danny g thank you Dan Byer, and we'll
wrap it up with your phone calls again, National Candy
Corn Day. Know that I'll play more Corn tonight on
SXM channel forty one Turbo and Corn is playing a
Sick New World April twenty fifth in Vegas with System
of a Down.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
So I'm a big Corn fan. I'm also a big
candy corn fan.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
But we wrap up crossfire candy your parents stole from you,
which maybe now you steal from your kids.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Will wrap it up with your phone calls.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Let's go, Let's go to Andrew and sendigo, Hi Andrew.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
What's that guys? I'm with my son right now.
Speaker 7 (24:33):
He said, Yes on the candy Corn, I say, in
no way, say.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
Yeah exactly.
Speaker 7 (24:42):
He's his favorite, he said, with sweet as fish. You
that I'm stealing out of his bag are gonna be
am enjoyed and.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Figures there you go, Hey, listen, I said to I
was Sam during the break, it really is boring, like
if you haven't seen like a kid's trunk or treat
or some type of tricker treating scene the walk because
you don't have little ones. It really is all the
boring candies. And the biggest takeaway from this whole conversation
was we used to be surprised if you worked the
neighborhood you would get a variety of candy things you
(25:17):
hadn't seen in years. There was a surprise when you
said trigger treat. Now it's like every single parent gets
the same and every single person gets that same variety pack.
At the supermarket you have the same five candy. It's
it's not a lot of dumb dumbs back in the day, right,
And I wouldn't mind once in a while. No, but you
get the barbershop, the cream soda flavored bob Stoppers, Jolly Ranchers.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Yeah, yeah, all real.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
It's just changed.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
It's definitely changed. So the collar brought up Swedish fish.
The little mini packs of those are.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
But you know what then, but the Haribo coke bottles,
yeahummy cokes there, but they're Harribo for you, Harbo no,
you're right, You're right.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Harba.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Alright, Jonathan and Colorado, it's up Jonathan, guy doing. What
are your thoughts on the Halloween candy stuff?
Speaker 4 (26:06):
One thing without fail every year and I'll always get
it would be a popcorn ball.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Oh my god, there was an old person that would
give their homemade popcorn balls in there, pepcorn balls. That's
another one. Some as a kid you would gladly give
away to your parents, like the big orange circus peanut
or like anything with coconut, like, yeah, you could have
my York peppermint patty or Mounts when you were a kid.
(26:30):
When you were a kid, right, But now as an adult.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Do you like junior mints? If you don't like? If
you I love as a kid, Now I do. Yeah,
Now your pepper and Patty is like too much.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
You know, someone dropped a junior mint inside spot when
he had his open heart surgery. I think his name
was Cosmo Kramer. Yeah, that's a good one. Chris and Virginia,
what's up? What's some Boddy?
Speaker 7 (26:52):
Hey?
Speaker 10 (26:52):
I got two for you. One is like the parents
woul always still and I was okay with his bidow honey.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Yeah, apparent one they'd steal that for sure, but you you.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Know what what you look out for, and it's so
rare nowadays. Again, the ones you don't always see, like
roll lows, You're like, give me those roll los. What
else you got, Chris Hey?
Speaker 10 (27:13):
The other one is it was so taboo back in
the day to get the candy cigarette that you blow
the smoke out of.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
I'll tell you.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
The gum powder, the dust, love it, hey, Fsr's very
own Arnie Spaniard texted into the show. Arnie old Man,
candy Chuckles is his number one dude, and o Henry
bar number two.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Can I tell let me tell Arnie the black chuckle,
which was the licorice flavored one was always the last
one because it was the cherry, the orange, the green.
I love Chuckles. Left that one for dad and Arnie's right, Chuckles.
When was the last time he saw chuckles? Because everyone
gives that same stupid variety packs. So the last message,
I'll say, and before we move on to the NFL,
(27:54):
buy something different for the trick or treaders. Don't get
the Reese's kit kat uh snicker variety pack. Everyone gives
that out. Go honestly, go buy jolly ranchers. Go buy
laffy taffy, Go buy some freaking chuckles, buy something different,
some razzles, some razzle dazzles.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
See you go all right? So we promise.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
And by the way, if you want to chime in
at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio, we call
that old school in fifty hits, we throw it back
in reminisce. I hope you guys have a happy and
safe Halloween and a safe mischief night tonight Halloween Eve.
So Rich, you said you're gonna bust out your crystal ball. Well,
I love me some schedule watching, but I also love
looking at my crystal ball. And there's some games this
(28:36):
week that I think are gonna be so telling as
far as where these teams are gonna head. As I
look in my crystal ball, there's a I'm gonna start
with one game that I think is so obviously you
gonna point to teams in different directions depending on what happens.
The Broncos are at the Texans, Broncos Texans. This is
(28:57):
a game where like, I'm mildly shocked that Houston's favorite.
I know the game's in Houston, Sir Tans out Mims
is banged up. They got some injuries for Denver. But
to me, it's like, a it makes sense.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
So they stepped up last week against your team, and
you got an injured Broncos.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Their defense is elite. You could argue that they're a
top tier defense in Houston, but I Home. I guess
Home plays a layer in this too. But the fact
that their favorites at three and four, but they're a
good three and four. They're three and four that could
very well be five and two had two very close
games gone different, Like right now when you look at
the Texans schedule, they're three and four, But let's take
(29:37):
it back. They lost to the Rams fourteen to nine
in a close game. They lost twenty nineteen to the Bucks.
They lost seventeen ten to the Jags. Like a lot
of their losses are club by a touchdown or less.
So maybe, yeah, I'm just sleeping on Houston for a
little bit. So maybe they are three and fourteen. That
(29:58):
turns it around. You're like, yeah, you know what they
weren't They were pretty good all along? And did I
hear Dan Byer say that Nico Collins is sort of
back in the mix.
Speaker 8 (30:07):
Yeah, cleared concussion protocol and should be should be?
Speaker 2 (30:10):
I mean, I think that's an interesting game because if
the Broncos do lose at Houston, I think you're gonna
be like, wow, Houston could make a mid to late
season run because that division is pretty stacked with Jacksonville
playing well and Indianapolis playing out of their mind. You know,
Houston was sort of like sort of the forgotten team. Well,
since you have your crystal ball out, do you think
(30:32):
with this game we figure out who's for real out
of both of those teams, Because that's what we're getting at,
right I think for real Week nine, I think if
the Texans lose big at home versus the Broncos, I
think we could say that just based on the bad
luck of a couple of those close losses, it's an
uphill battle to make the postseason because the teams in
the division have played better than we thought and the
fact that you have a one loss Coults team like
(30:54):
it's it'll be an uphill battle.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
So this is a big one for Houston. Now another
game of the Colts.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
They're going to Seattle, I'm sorry, They're going to Pittsburgh
to play the Steelers, and Steelers are four and three,
and we mapped out the whole schedule how the Ravens
are two and five, but they have a really soft
month coming up. This is one of those games where
if the Steelers lose and you see the Ravens win tonight,
(31:22):
oh there's gonna be such a such a like a
nervous stomach going on Pittsburgh that they could see in
the rear view of the team that's getting healthier and
a team that's trying to get it together with Baltimore.
I think the Colts going to Pittsburgh and win and
you're gonna see a four and four Steelers team. Do
you start putting respect on the Colt's name after a
while or what he's still downplay? We have played Denver
(31:45):
and we've downplayed Indianapolis, So maybe that narrative switches after
this week. Well we're gonna go over a bunch of
a bunch of these games. But let's go to dB
for an update. Dann Byer, Hey, dB, what's up?
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Man?
Speaker 8 (31:55):
So brock perty limited in practice is the word for
the forty nine ers. Remember they got the Giant coming
up on Sunday. Artificial turf one of the services that
former players are not fans of, so that's been brought
up on social media as well, But it does look
like mac Jones will get another start in Week nine
four San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
When a guy is having a season long lingering turf toe,
do you want to play on the stadium that's known
for the worst turf?
Speaker 1 (32:21):
No, it's come on No. It's like symbolic of you
know you don't. Yeah. By the way, what's happening with
Ricky Piersoll? Like he's still a week to week and it.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Just seems like every week is not there.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
I don't know, Yeah, not there. So that's someone.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Someone did make a bit harsh judgment, like, man, this
guy's never healthy. He was shot last year. I don't
think that counts on his injury. Give them a.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Pass on that one.
Speaker 8 (32:43):
Other injury news in the NFL, Bears running back DeAndre
Swift in practice today. They've got the Bengals coming up,
where Joe Flacca was limited today. The quarterbacks got that

Let me hit you up with another telling game Week
nine of the NFL. We're just going over the games
that I feel like, based on the result, will be
a very big reflection of where the team is going.
They'll banged up, and though it looks like mac Jones
(36:42):
is getting another start, I have to be real and
keep it real with my forty nine ers. They're five
and three, you know, softer, barely favorite giants in a
softer NFC where I grew with Dan Bayer, where we
saw talked about how the Niners, even if they got
into the playoffs at ten and seven, there's there's a
lack of talent in depth in the NFC. There's top
teams at the top like the Lions and the Eagles,
(37:05):
and you know the Packers, but you know, teams like
the Niners could slip in. But right now they're five
and three. You got to go to the East Coast.
You got to take care of the Giants. Come out
of the game six and three because you have the
Rams next week, and then you have the Cardinals and Panthers,
which are two very winnable games, so you sneak by.
If you're the Niners, you're five and three, six and three,
(37:26):
they should do that. I'll give the Rams that game
six and four, Cardinals seven and four, Panthers eight and four.
I think the Niners need to be eight and four
after twelve games, and I think that all starts with
you have to go three and one on the next
four to I think keep pace and the Giants should
be a w The Niners can't go to the East
Coast and lose to the Giants without Scataboo, without Molik Neighbors,
(37:48):
with disarray and a rookie quarterback Robert Sallas should let
that team shouldn't really move the ball. If Robert Sala's
defensive schemes are up to up to park.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
Dis array I never heard of them. So Week nine
begins tonight. We're excited about it.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
It's whether sits whether the Ravens start their mission. Yeah,
Ravens Dolphins ain't happening. Who else is? For real?
Speaker 1 (38:11):
Rich?
Speaker 2 (38:11):
I told you left me on a cliffhanger. Chiefs Buffalo
to me is a very telling game. Chiefs gotta win
this one because it seems like every week the Chiefs
get better and better and better.
Speaker 1 (38:20):
We're like, ah, just not their year. But it seems
like with good coaching, they've made adjustments and they're playing big.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
But this one's at Buffalo. Do you think this is
a telling game? I think you're looking at you know,
Dan Bayer. I'll give more pops. Maybe he'll be a
Rich Davis guy again. Never you know how I said,
The NFC seems pretty set. You got the Eagles, you
got the Lines and Packers, you got the Bucks, and
you probably got Rams, maybe even Niners and Seahawks. Right
(38:50):
unless some other lower team like the Cowboys, or someone
just somehow steps on the gas or the Vikings or
someone really turns it around. The NFC seems like you
sort of a clue of where we're headed. The AFC.
I'm intrigued to see if Buffalo drops this game. Are
we just going to give into the idea that the
Patriots are the owners of the AFC East again.
Speaker 1 (39:10):
And the Bills are gonna be like a wildcut.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
That's why I'm feeling it's a telling game the Bills,
where this is where the Bills could like sort of
redeem themselves. We were all full of it when remember
the beginning of the year, were like gods, it's very clear.
It's like a three headed monster, Chiefs, Bills and Ravens.
Ravens need a lot of help. Bills are slipping, and
the Chiefs started week and now are like you know
up there.
Speaker 3 (39:29):
What's interesting Those two preseasons ago people were down on
the Bills, remember, yeah, and then they shot out of
a cannon. People are, oh, we were wrong about that,
And it's kind of the opposite.
Speaker 2 (39:39):
Are they gonna get good? We're waiting for them to
turn it around. I told my girlfriend the draft Josh
Allen in her fantasy league. She's like, he stinks, Like, I.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Don't know, he's supposed to be good. They're supposed to
be good.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
I don't know why this is their chance to turn
it around against the Chiefs. That's a big statement game.
I don't think it's gonna happen. I draft Sydney Sweeney
in my fantasy league. She's in my No Madison and
Madison beer to fight you for. Yeah, so my fantasies
are different than yours. Perfect, you know what we're gonna talk.
You can keep Josh Allen. We'll talk to Sidney Sweeney
on Overpromised How about that?
Speaker 1 (40:06):
I perfect? They're even there, you baby, see you in
the over Promised land. Lets me go

Old school right now week nine Thursday, bro with our
Halloween candy deep thoughts, and we are gonna definitely dive
deep like we're uh Jaq Coustell give me another diver.
(01:16):
Greg Lugatis, Yeah, man, but you know what, I just
had an ep fanny epfany the way people are divided.
Yeah on candy corn. By the way, that just means
I had a deep thought in the bathroom while you
were being in a Piefanyah. I know it happens. Candy
corn is very divisive. So no family agrees. We know
(01:37):
nobody agrees. People hate it, people love it. You got
your show divided.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
I love it. I'm so surprised. Dan Bayer loves it
because he likes nothing. Yeah, well he likes kid food, Yeah,
chicken nuggets and stuff. Yeah, Iowa Sam hates it, hate it,
hate it.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
But the fact you hate it it just I'm happy
because it proves my point that a group of friends,
a family, you're coworkers, you're never gonna have a unanimous
we all love or all hate candy corn. Well, on
National Candy Corn Day, Who's the candy corn of sports?
It's gotta be Lebron James, right, because for everybody it
loves them, someone hates him, Like there's gonna be a
(02:12):
house divide. Rogers the candy corn of sports, the candy
corner of the NFL. Also, you could argue, is everything
revolving around Taylor and Travis like a lot of people
beautiful I think, say Aaron Rodgers, That's what I thought.
Also Aaron Rodgers might be there's people that love him,
(02:35):
but more more, more hating than love. I think device
the board, deviceive guy. The most divisive guy, I'd have
to say is lebron But anyway, because this National Candy
Corn Day got us thinking back in the day, throwing
it back on a Thursday, getting you involved eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox, what was the candy that
(02:55):
your parents always stole from you? Because remember we go
up in the eighties, a lot of us even earlier
than that. For some of you, parents always checked the candy.
I still do that, do you guys still do that
a little bit? And I'm really just checking for again
what I want, but just to make sure it's safe.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
You just really take them to get X Rayder. Was
that a big That's a big But.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
The reality is I think tricker treating yes, but trunk
or treat at the school, they you have to bring
prepackaged candy. They divvy eat up for the cars like
you don't need to be checking out In the day
they used to check for razor blade.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
You know that.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
That was a lot of people looking from my grandma's
generation the great They would make their own candy, their
own confections to give up give out because it was
cheaper to do, I think during during some hard times.
So and there were some bad actors, you know, play.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
These are days of rotten apples decades circus, peanuts and
candies wrapped in that house gets egged. So what were
the candies that your parents were stealing from you? And
then Rich put up a second question. It was a
lady at my block grown up and gave out a
little piece of fudge that you have some I got
(04:02):
some fun for you, Sam, you just unlocked a memory
because you know it. There was definitely an old lady
in the block that had like individually wrapped little playing butterscott.
That's so funny, dude. True, You're absolutely right about that.
People took pride in that. And what was the first
time we're getting this voice. By the way, I like that, Sam, Yeah,
you're the new old guy in town or old lady
(04:24):
whatever that whichever. Yeah, what is the old candy that
you actually like? I think the idea you said there's
a number one. I think the idea of going through
your kid's candy and saying, like I'm checking for it,
I just take it, and I call it the dad text.
And I also feel like, there's no way your kid
can eat all that candy. My wife will be like,
(04:44):
stop picking at the kid's candy. I'm like, you think
it's okay for a kid to have a barrel? Cats
and Sour Pats started that witch switch sort of thing
where you would take the candy and getting a toy
or something instead, or that's what they need, more toys.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
I don't know, I know where you're surprised or I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Was it Jimmy Kimmel who did the bit where the
parents told the kids they ate their candy while they
were sleeping.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah, that was the last funny thing he did. Dude,
I forgot about that. Yeah, that is it? So rich?
You got us on the edge of our seat. What's
the old guy candy that you can't live with them?
I feel like I'm the lone guy because my wife's like,
take them, no one else wants them. I'm like you,
for real, I got two, but one is a far
number one for me. My runner up. Iowall house TUTSI
(05:32):
rolls like nobody's business, and it seems like no one
else loves the little mini tutty rouse, the fruit flavored, the.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Cherry yeah are good. A lot of times there's stale though.
Those are the cheaper bad Like I bought a bag
of candy, and those are the cheaper ones, like that
variety of TUTSI roll dots.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Yeah stuff, he's TUTSI yeah, Well it's funny you should
say that, Sam, because the number one answer you just
named my favorite cheap guy old guy candy. I feel
like no one but me he loves dots. I love dots.
They get stuck your teeth. Give me a hug. I
was saying, I love dots, and my wife's like, you
like dots? Who likes dots? They just they're gooey sticking
your teeth and no one likes I go then give
me all the dots. The dots all right? So is
(06:11):
there an old guy candy you vounch for I'm just
gonna shout out Smarties because they're from my hometown of Union,
New Jersey, and not Canadian Smarties. Canadian Smarties, I think
are made by like they're like chocolate. Let me actual
smart as candy. Let me make it very complete. And
they were pills, right yeah, let me make it drugs.
Let me make it very clear. You want all these
old guy candies. They that's what they sell at the
(06:32):
Dollar Tree. Like if you go to the candy aisle
at the dollar Store Dollar Tree, it's all the old
Like if you ever wondered where they sell the individually
wrapped strawberry candies that look like little strawberries. If you
ever wondered where they sell individually wrapped life savers that
they give away at the strip club bathroom. All this,
all the mints, they are the mints that look like
life savers, right, all at the Dollar Tree.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
We went in the Dollar Tree last week, everything and
there was two dollars and fifty cents.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Wait, where do grandma's get those strawberry cans? That's not
the same thing. Yeah, all right, So we go to
the phones at eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox
eight seven seven ninety nine, on Fox to break it
down as far as what was your dad's stealing back
in the day and what do you actually like.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
About did you tell us code which which candies your
dad stole?
Speaker 2 (07:18):
You know, I totally remember your parents stealing your candy
as they checked through it, and I'm thinking, like back
and I'm thinking it's like butterfinger.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
And there's another one that my dad would always that's
a good one. My stepdad would steal that and put
them in the freezer.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Yeah, because and I didn't mind. I don't because I
didn't want them. But now now as an adult, I
like them. But my dad would always take those and
it was something else sunny edge of my I tipped
my tongue. I just remember my dad would grab milk
duds and like sugar baby, sugar daddies, any type of
like Caramelli, chocolate fun.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Right, right, So we're going through the phones reminiscent a
little bit. We do this every Thursday.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
It's Halloween Eve, Mischief Night, whatever, eight seven, seven ninety
nine on Fox. Who do we got Let's go to
And by the way, you know how Dan Patrick makes
people give their height and wait and all that. Yeah,
before you give your answer. You have to let us
know if you're yeah your nay on candy corn, just
to sort of just to prove the point that the
world's divided, to set the table. Candy corn guy, Candy
(08:15):
in Mississippi. What's up, Andy?
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Hey guys, I got a couple of things real quick.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
First of all, when you're talking about egging and rolling
people's yards, we forked, plastic forked a yard. That's a
lot harder to clean up.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Just forks all inside the grass.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Yeah, that's a good one.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
Box the forks, plastic forks and you stick them in
the yard.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
No, you know what we would do too.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
We would take garden gnomes from all over the town
and leave them on someone else's house.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
And then as far as the candy corn, my dad
used to mix Spanish peanuts with the candy corn. Get
a sweet and salty.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
So I ask you, so, I ask you Andy, before
you hang up here? Are you a candy corn guy?
I am?
Speaker 4 (09:01):
But I got one more thing for you. Hear me,
candy corn. They're gonna get too pregnant.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
This is Tracy Morgan. What is going on? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Why did you just turn into mister Hyde? There just
like I think. I think when they got coughed, a
different something entered his body. He was like possessed by
the devil or something, or he's hanging with Tracy likes either.
Hold on God Baker in Illinois? What's that Baker? Baker?
Speaker 5 (09:40):
First off, I have never stolen candy from my children
that they know about, and the candy corn is gross
by itself. But like first the last gay kind of
stole my thunder candy corn with cammon and peanuts mixed.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Then twist peanuts and candy gard I will try that.
You know em and m. Peanuts are the number two
selling candy in the United States, the number one selling candy.
We mentioned this a couple of weeks ago, but Reese's
Peanut butter cups are still the number one selling Halloween
candy every year. I want to hear an embarrassing stat
doesn't have to do a candy, but for anyone that
(10:21):
talks about how people are tough and rough on money
and the times are tough, Americans spend seven hundred million
dollars a year on dog customs. I'm not surprised, dude, Yeah,
I'm not surprised. Who else do we got trip what's up?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Trip trip, Mgney, what up trip?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Hey, gentlemen.
Speaker 6 (10:40):
A quick egging story. I was with my buddy one
night and he's like.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
You drive, I never get to throw the eggs.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
He rocks and fires an egg.
Speaker 6 (10:47):
He didn't roll the window down, so the first his
own car.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
I remember going to get eggs as a kid, and
it was like the only time I did because I
was trying to be a good kid. They're like one
of theborhood little uh lamp wicks. She's like, can't Richie
go get eggs? Come on, what are you scinny? I'm
surprised that the convenience stores were so willing to give
up eggs to like young kids. Interestingly enough, the guy
the seven eleven is like, I'm not selling you two
(11:13):
dozen eggs kids. I go, why, He goes, what do
you need these eggs?
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Hard?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I said? I was quick on my feet. I go,
my mom's making omelets, and he let me buy them
because quick making cookies from making night Oh you know.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
I thought of a mom candy. My mom would dip
into my mix.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
My mom would dip in and steal like sweet tarts,
even though I love them too, But she'd always steal
the Sweethearts and Mary Jane's Oh I love Mary Jeans.
Can I tell you? I will say an old person can't.
I'm not saying they're not good, but you're not getting
the variety you got when we were kids. Let me
explain when we were kids. I don't know about you.
(11:53):
I work the freaking neighborhood I was helping about. I'm
going back with pillowcase. Like you, you'd break out a
big bag or can you know's ad a pillowcase. You'd
go into other neighborhoods. You'd work your ass off. You'd
be like, wait, that big house in the rich neighborhood
gives out full sized Hershey bars, kings, I go for kings.
You would work your ass off to get a barrel
of loot and candy and you'd sort it out, and
(12:15):
you're right, your parents are check it. But you at
a variety candy you never heard of, even mixed in.
Like Sam said, like old old Lady Old Lady McGee gave.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
You fudge, you'd get a what you might call it bar.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I feel like everyone gives out the same variety pack
of kit Cat Hershey, Snicker, Milky Way Dusty, like coffins
full of hard candy.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Remember those, I will say dusty things.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
It's sort of boring and I'm not trying to sound
like the old guy, but my kid's candy basket was
like the same five candy. Just a lot of it
happen Alexander, the Great Snickers, Milky Way kit Cat, Yeah, Twigs,
sour Patch, sweetish fish, you variety like six things that
are just you know, you might get a someone may
give you like an airhead, or it's laffy taffy that
(13:01):
you know, it's the same variety packs that everyone's buying
at the super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
You mentioned our other theory while we talked about candy
real quick. It's National Candy corn Day, by the way,
so we're going over the candies your parents stole from
you and your favorite old guy candy and everything else.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Could I guess that I was. Sam's going to disagree
with you? Oh yeah, I always. Sam is the contrarian
of Halloween candy. Our theory pens and it's a proven
theory because we've worked in many of different offices. When
Cindy from accounting puts her little bowl of candy out,
or even your little candy display at home. It's always
the yellow wrapped candies that are left over. It's always
(13:35):
yellow starburst, yellow laffy taffy. It's always a yellow wrapper
that's left over. It's the lemon or banana that's left over.
If we didn't experiment here at FSR, if we put
if you brought in your leftover halloweens, favorite's what's a
close second? Grape? No orange, isn't it?
Speaker 7 (13:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Probably like orange starburst. I feel like they'll be like
a grape blowpop. Don't like the grape pop. I like
grape blaffy tat like people would take that. People want
the regular blow pop with the green apple, but the
great apple.
Speaker 8 (14:05):
I love grape anything. So when he brought up Alexander
the Grape, that was my go to with that movie
theater I was a.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Good fan of. They were called cherry clans back in
the day, cherry heads now lemonheads. Alexander the Great Johnny
Apple treats. I used to love all those. I think
they're called terra pan or fererra pan or something. I
used to love those hard candies. Hey, dB, how about
those great Mike and Ikes?
Speaker 8 (14:29):
Oh yes, the best and you don't see him everywhere,
kind of like the hundred grand that we've talked about before.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Your dad would still great treat plenties. Yeah, I like
the black My mom stole it off the Black liquors,
and you you would be like, yeah, take these, I
don't want them anywhere, can I tell you? I mean
maybe my kids school just went the easy way out
and got so much of the same candy. But you
guys just mentioned candies that did not make my kids
trunk or treat basket. Mike and Ike couldn't plenty the
(15:00):
blow pops. I'm telling you, so many people just go
to the local supermarket or Target, and like Sam said,
there's the cheap variety pack and the expensive variety pack,
so your kids are dealing with a mix of the
same eight. I thought of another one that we got
that you won't get today. Remember we were little. They
would sell like little milk cartons full of gum and
orange flavor gum, great gum. It look like a tiny
(15:23):
little milk cart and it was like little pe peck.
Speaker 7 (15:25):
We have.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
We had more variety for sure. And by the way,
retraction the Lemonhead Candy company, that's Ferrara Candy Shop. Ferrara candy,
and they had a whole line of great hard candies
when we were kids. They still exist, but you're right,
you don't see them. You see those same variety, boring
target variety packs that you get.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Everyone has the same one. Switch it up. That's a
great reminder.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Switch it up because your kids in your neighborhood will
appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Throw some zots in there. You know what you do
in August or September. You go down the candy aisle
of like a CBS or Walgreens, and you pick out
different bags like the same stuff, and mix it all together.
You'll have a niceariety for the children's zots. Bro, we
don't want those neco wafers. We want some zots. But
what were the uh, what were the things that you
would bite off the paper?
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Like candy dots? Is that what they're called?
Speaker 2 (16:12):
And sometimes even in your east in your Halloween basket,
you like sugar button, Yeah, sugar button. Remember also little
a little waxy the wax bottles of like liquid in them. Yeah,
these are things that no one's handing out.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
How about the fun dip? Dude?
Speaker 2 (16:27):
What fun dip? I think I grew up on? Fun
fund was snorting fun dip. You know what, here's the reminder,
the reminder on Fox Sports Radio. Get something different, honestly,
because you will see when your kids are trigger treating
trucks or treading, they don't have as much fun stuff
to steal.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Like I want to steal some pixie sticks.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
But you know you're you're gonna see just one hundred
tiny little Snickers bars or milk not even milk dots,
crackles appearance and mister goodbar comes back.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Crackle stinks, I know.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
But you know what, mister goar and the yellow wrapper, right,
that's that's the cheaper variety peck that'll be. It'll be
left over all right. So we'll wrap it up with
your phone calls having fun talking Halloween candy. And another reminder,
this is a lot of people say is Thanksgiving. This
is the beginning of the slippery slope, guys, the slippery
slope of the holiday. Wait, because it starts with this
Halloween candy. It's National Candy Corn Day. We're going to
(17:20):
the calls. Who we got Mark, Mark and Carson City,
what's up?
Speaker 6 (17:24):
Hey, I got one for you. Yeah, I had a
neighbor that police gave out zots Oh my god, I
just said that.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, I love those are the ones that fizz in
your mouth.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
I never had one, so five years ago mark five
years ago, because I had never tried one. Cavino actually
got old school candy szots and I tried it on
the air.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
And I was like, yeah, this is how coold. I
like fizzy in your I was like, ALC, I love.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
Yeah, that's what I did. I would take like ten
of them and and before my kids would see me
and chew on them and tell him I got bit
by the dog.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
You know, those might be my favorite, like older candies
because they're old, they go way back, and yeah, I
love those. They're hard to fight. You can find them
at like candy shops. Yeah, we we lack some good
foaming at the mouth pranks these days. And uh, pop Rocks,
What was the last time you saw pop Rocks? When
you when you're high school?
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Girlfriend?
Speaker 2 (18:16):
At uh jeff and Detroit? What's up Jeffy with some guys?
Speaker 5 (18:22):
What's funny is I My dad used to steal my
one hundred grand bars from me.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Oh and that's a crime, it's and.
Speaker 6 (18:30):
Now I do now that's what I steal.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
I don't even like you nailed it.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
You nailed it. And that's probably why I fight for
them and like them so much now, because my dad
would always steal those. Those are my absolute If anyone
gives a Diddley squat, those are my favorites.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
So I'm with you. Those are the ones. If those
are ones I'm stealing, it's like a deficiency because you
were deprived.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
I was derived, So now I steal them from my kid.
That's that's my answer.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Man.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
I've always had the deep thought though, guys, what we
all do buy these candies and chocolate and sour patch
and all that for our kids around holidays and Halloween,
Easter baskets, Christmas, all this stuff. I do wonder, like,
who's buying a candy bar on a regular basis other
than like a road trip where you might stop in
a wah wah or a seven eleven or a Bucky's
(19:17):
or something better?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Question who's buying like a Clark.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
But that's what I'm saying, Like when you see like
a segment when you go to the counter and you're like, man,
there's a baby ruth. Is someone randomly on a weekly
basis grabbing a baby roof?
Speaker 6 (19:27):
Yet?
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Or hooked somehow.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Malar has talked about this on one of his podcasts
where there was some study and most of the purchases
are right there at the cash register.
Speaker 8 (19:35):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know what world you live in,
Rich Davis, but it is a common practice in my household. Yeah,
you know, they're right, They're right in front of you.
They grab them, they have the sales sign.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
I guess that's when I buy. I guess that's when
I buy like gum or I'm a sour patch guy.
Maybe I'm just more of a sour Yeah. A lot
of the grocery stores sour shoes guy.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
A lot of the grocery stores, right under the candy bar,
it'll say buy one, get one free, and that you
have the buyolog.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
At Ralph's, which is the big supermarket chain out here,
what is what's a parent company for RALF Kroger? So, yeah,
the Kroger's out here owned by Chad Kroger. Little note
Nickel his rock fortune went to supermarkets. They'll have like
the candy and it'll say five for five dollars, so
you think you have to buy five, so you do,
(20:22):
and then in the small print its like or a dollar.
Rich you just buy five of them. You have another
childhood memory. I bet you forgot about. Do you remember
some neighbors assigned from the old ladies that would give
you their homemade fudge, which I think is hilarious because
it's true. Some families would give you like McDonald's coupons
and they're McDonald's coupon. Oh how like cookies or.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Like a Sunday Like, oh, yeah, you're right man.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I think the greatest point we made out of this
conversation is that kids don't have the same variety that
we had growing up.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
True, we had all sorts of variety.
Speaker 5 (20:53):
Man.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Oh that is the biggest bummer, because you're right. I'm
thinking how much some there that stupid variety pack has
ruined Halloween.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
I totally forgot about that. I remember when you're getting
a Dairy Queen gift certificate.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Yeah ponds, man, they'd be like, yeah, someone would buy
a pack at them and they get a kid. You
know it was I remember McDonald's one specifically back on
the Iowa Sam tip of like old lady, they gave
you fudge, you.
Speaker 9 (21:16):
Watch them fudge. I got homemade butter scotch. Oh yeah,
you don't have to x ray you can trust me. Thanks,
old Lady, my budger to come back next year. If
I'm an we love your shree hundred thank you.
Speaker 10 (21:35):
I was.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
I might be dreaming this, but I swear there was
a woman in my neighborhood, Old lady. They gave out
like candy apples, dude, of course, the biggest candy apple
with like wrapping around. People gave out fruit and and
pennies wrapped in cellophane.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
And again I totally.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Remember you could go buy penny candies.
Speaker 1 (21:54):

Sick New World April twenty fifth in Vegas with System
of a Down.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
So I'm a big Corn fan. I'm also a big
candy corn fan.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
But we wrap up crossfire candy your parents stole from you,
which maybe now you steal from your kids.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Will wrap it up with your phone calls.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Let's go, Let's go to Andrew and sendigo, Hi Andrew.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
What's that guys? I'm with my son right now.
Speaker 7 (24:33):
He said, Yes on the candy Corn, I say, in
no way, say.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
Yeah exactly.
Speaker 7 (24:42):
He's his favorite, he said, with sweet as fish. You
that I'm stealing out of his bag are gonna be
am enjoyed and.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Figures there you go, Hey, listen, I said to I
was Sam during the break, it really is boring, like
if you haven't seen like a kid's trunk or treat
or some type of tricker treating scene the walk because
you don't have little ones. It really is all the
boring candies. And the biggest takeaway from this whole conversation
was we used to be surprised if you worked the
neighborhood you would get a variety of candy things you
(25:17):
hadn't seen in years. There was a surprise when you
said trigger treat. Now it's like every single parent gets
the same and every single person gets that same variety pack.
At the supermarket you have the same five candy. It's
it's not a lot of dumb dumbs back in the day, right,
And I wouldn't mind once in a while. No, but you
get the barbershop, the cream soda flavored bob Stoppers, Jolly Ranchers.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Yeah, yeah, all real.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
It's just changed.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
It's definitely changed. So the collar brought up Swedish fish.
The little mini packs of those are.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
But you know what then, but the Haribo coke bottles,
yeahummy cokes there, but they're Harribo for you, Harbo no,
you're right, You're right.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Harba.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Alright, Jonathan and Colorado, it's up Jonathan, guy doing. What
are your thoughts on the Halloween candy stuff?
Speaker 4 (26:06):
One thing without fail every year and I'll always get
it would be a popcorn ball.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Oh my god, there was an old person that would
give their homemade popcorn balls in there, pepcorn balls. That's
another one. Some as a kid you would gladly give
away to your parents, like the big orange circus peanut
or like anything with coconut, like, yeah, you could have
my York peppermint patty or Mounts when you were a kid.
(26:30):
When you were a kid, right, But now as an adult.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Do you like junior mints? If you don't like? If
you I love as a kid, Now I do. Yeah,
Now your pepper and Patty is like too much.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
You know, someone dropped a junior mint inside spot when
he had his open heart surgery. I think his name
was Cosmo Kramer. Yeah, that's a good one. Chris and Virginia,
what's up? What's some Boddy?
Speaker 7 (26:52):
Hey?
Speaker 10 (26:52):
I got two for you. One is like the parents
woul always still and I was okay with his bidow honey.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Yeah, apparent one they'd steal that for sure, but you you.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Know what what you look out for, and it's so
rare nowadays. Again, the ones you don't always see, like
roll lows, You're like, give me those roll los. What
else you got, Chris Hey?
Speaker 10 (27:13):
The other one is it was so taboo back in
the day to get the candy cigarette that you blow
the smoke out of.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
I'll tell you.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
The gum powder, the dust, love it, hey, Fsr's very
own Arnie Spaniard texted into the show. Arnie old Man,
candy Chuckles is his number one dude, and o Henry
bar number two.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Can I tell let me tell Arnie the black chuckle,
which was the licorice flavored one was always the last
one because it was the cherry, the orange, the green.
I love Chuckles. Left that one for dad and Arnie's right, Chuckles.
When was the last time he saw chuckles? Because everyone
gives that same stupid variety packs. So the last message,
I'll say, and before we move on to the NFL,
(27:54):
buy something different for the trick or treaders. Don't get
the Reese's kit kat uh snicker variety pack. Everyone gives
that out. Go honestly, go buy jolly ranchers. Go buy
laffy taffy, Go buy some freaking chuckles, buy something different,
some razzles, some razzle dazzles.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
See you go all right? So we promise.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
And by the way, if you want to chime in
at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio, we call
that old school in fifty hits, we throw it back
in reminisce. I hope you guys have a happy and
safe Halloween and a safe mischief night tonight Halloween Eve.
So Rich, you said you're gonna bust out your crystal ball. Well,
I love me some schedule watching, but I also love
looking at my crystal ball. And there's some games this
(28:36):
week that I think are gonna be so telling as
far as where these teams are gonna head. As I
look in my crystal ball, there's a I'm gonna start
with one game that I think is so obviously you
gonna point to teams in different directions depending on what happens.
The Broncos are at the Texans, Broncos Texans. This is
(28:57):
a game where like, I'm mildly shocked that Houston's favorite.
I know the game's in Houston, Sir Tans out Mims
is banged up. They got some injuries for Denver. But
to me, it's like, a it makes sense.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
So they stepped up last week against your team, and
you got an injured Broncos.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Their defense is elite. You could argue that they're a
top tier defense in Houston, but I Home. I guess
Home plays a layer in this too. But the fact
that their favorites at three and four, but they're a
good three and four. They're three and four that could
very well be five and two had two very close
games gone different, Like right now when you look at
the Texans schedule, they're three and four, But let's take
(29:37):
it back. They lost to the Rams fourteen to nine
in a close game. They lost twenty nineteen to the Bucks.
They lost seventeen ten to the Jags. Like a lot
of their losses are club by a touchdown or less.
So maybe, yeah, I'm just sleeping on Houston for a
little bit. So maybe they are three and fourteen. That
(29:58):
turns it around. You're like, yeah, you know what they
weren't They were pretty good all along? And did I
hear Dan Byer say that Nico Collins is sort of
back in the mix.
Speaker 8 (30:07):
Yeah, cleared concussion protocol and should be should be?
Speaker 2 (30:10):
I mean, I think that's an interesting game because if
the Broncos do lose at Houston, I think you're gonna
be like, wow, Houston could make a mid to late
season run because that division is pretty stacked with Jacksonville
playing well and Indianapolis playing out of their mind. You know,
Houston was sort of like sort of the forgotten team. Well,
since you have your crystal ball out, do you think
(30:32):
with this game we figure out who's for real out
of both of those teams, Because that's what we're getting at,
right I think for real Week nine, I think if
the Texans lose big at home versus the Broncos, I
think we could say that just based on the bad
luck of a couple of those close losses, it's an
uphill battle to make the postseason because the teams in
the division have played better than we thought and the
fact that you have a one loss Coults team like
(30:54):
it's it'll be an uphill battle.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
So this is a big one for Houston. Now another
game of the Colts.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
They're going to Seattle, I'm sorry, They're going to Pittsburgh
to play the Steelers, and Steelers are four and three,
and we mapped out the whole schedule how the Ravens
are two and five, but they have a really soft
month coming up. This is one of those games where
if the Steelers lose and you see the Ravens win tonight,
(31:22):
oh there's gonna be such a such a like a
nervous stomach going on Pittsburgh that they could see in
the rear view of the team that's getting healthier and
a team that's trying to get it together with Baltimore.
I think the Colts going to Pittsburgh and win and
you're gonna see a four and four Steelers team. Do
you start putting respect on the Colt's name after a
while or what he's still downplay? We have played Denver
(31:45):
and we've downplayed Indianapolis, So maybe that narrative switches after
this week. Well we're gonna go over a bunch of
a bunch of these games. But let's go to dB
for an update. Dann Byer, Hey, dB, what's up?
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Man?
Speaker 8 (31:55):
So brock perty limited in practice is the word for
the forty nine ers. Remember they got the Giant coming
up on Sunday. Artificial turf one of the services that
former players are not fans of, so that's been brought
up on social media as well, But it does look
like mac Jones will get another start in Week nine
four San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
When a guy is having a season long lingering turf toe,
do you want to play on the stadium that's known
for the worst turf?
Speaker 1 (32:21):
No, it's come on No. It's like symbolic of you
know you don't. Yeah. By the way, what's happening with
Ricky Piersoll? Like he's still a week to week and it.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Just seems like every week is not there.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
I don't know, Yeah, not there. So that's someone.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Someone did make a bit harsh judgment, like, man, this
guy's never healthy. He was shot last year. I don't
think that counts on his injury. Give them a.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Pass on that one.
Speaker 8 (32:43):
Other injury news in the NFL, Bears running back DeAndre
Swift in practice today. They've got the Bengals coming up,
where Joe Flacca was limited today. The quarterbacks got that
shoulder issue. Falcons quarterback Michael Pennix Junior and wide receiver

Let me hit you up with another telling game Week
nine of the NFL. We're just going over the games
that I feel like, based on the result, will be
a very big reflection of where the team is going.
They'll banged up, and though it looks like mac Jones
(36:42):
is getting another start, I have to be real and
keep it real with my forty nine ers. They're five
and three, you know, softer, barely favorite giants in a
softer NFC where I grew with Dan Bayer, where we
saw talked about how the Niners, even if they got
into the playoffs at ten and seven, there's there's a
lack of talent in depth in the NFC. There's top
teams at the top like the Lions and the Eagles,
(37:05):
and you know the Packers, but you know, teams like
the Niners could slip in. But right now they're five
and three. You got to go to the East Coast.
You got to take care of the Giants. Come out
of the game six and three because you have the
Rams next week, and then you have the Cardinals and Panthers,
which are two very winnable games, so you sneak by.
If you're the Niners, you're five and three, six and three,
(37:26):
they should do that. I'll give the Rams that game
six and four, Cardinals seven and four, Panthers eight and four.
I think the Niners need to be eight and four
after twelve games, and I think that all starts with
you have to go three and one on the next
four to I think keep pace and the Giants should
be a w The Niners can't go to the East
Coast and lose to the Giants without Scataboo, without Molik Neighbors,
(37:48):
with disarray and a rookie quarterback Robert Sallas should let
that team shouldn't really move the ball. If Robert Sala's
defensive schemes are up to up to park.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
Dis array I never heard of them. So Week nine
begins tonight. We're excited about it.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
It's whether sits whether the Ravens start their mission. Yeah,
Ravens Dolphins ain't happening. Who else is? For real?
Speaker 1 (38:11):
Rich?
Speaker 2 (38:11):
I told you left me on a cliffhanger. Chiefs Buffalo
to me is a very telling game. Chiefs gotta win
this one because it seems like every week the Chiefs
get better and better and better.
Speaker 1 (38:20):
We're like, ah, just not their year. But it seems
like with good coaching, they've made adjustments and they're playing big.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
But this one's at Buffalo. Do you think this is
a telling game? I think you're looking at you know,
Dan Bayer. I'll give more pops. Maybe he'll be a
Rich Davis guy again. Never you know how I said,
The NFC seems pretty set. You got the Eagles, you
got the Lines and Packers, you got the Bucks, and
you probably got Rams, maybe even Niners and Seahawks. Right
(38:50):
unless some other lower team like the Cowboys, or someone
just somehow steps on the gas or the Vikings or
someone really turns it around. The NFC seems like you
sort of a clue of where we're headed. The AFC.
I'm intrigued to see if Buffalo drops this game. Are
we just going to give into the idea that the
Patriots are the owners of the AFC East again.
Speaker 1 (39:10):
And the Bills are gonna be like a wildcut.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
That's why I'm feeling it's a telling game the Bills,
where this is where the Bills could like sort of
redeem themselves. We were all full of it when remember
the beginning of the year, were like gods, it's very clear.
It's like a three headed monster, Chiefs, Bills and Ravens.
Ravens need a lot of help. Bills are slipping, and
the Chiefs started week and now are like you know
up there.
Speaker 3 (39:29):
What's interesting Those two preseasons ago people were down on
the Bills, remember, yeah, and then they shot out of
a cannon. People are, oh, we were wrong about that,
And it's kind of the opposite.
Speaker 2 (39:39):
Are they gonna get good? We're waiting for them to
turn it around. I told my girlfriend the draft Josh
Allen in her fantasy league. She's like, he stinks, Like, I.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Don't know, he's supposed to be good. They're supposed to
be good.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
I don't know why this is their chance to turn
it around against the Chiefs. That's a big statement game.
I don't think it's gonna happen. I draft Sydney Sweeney
in my fantasy league. She's in my No Madison and
Madison beer to fight you for. Yeah, so my fantasies
are different than yours. Perfect, you know what we're gonna talk.
You can keep Josh Allen. We'll talk to Sidney Sweeney
on Overpromised How about that?
Speaker 1 (40:06):
I perfect? They're even there, you baby, see you in
the over Promised land. Lets me go
