Speaker 1 (00:00):
Juicy moves, hot gods, come stay on the top in
the boots.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Cho Okay, So Friday the seventeenth, we're at the City
View Fort Worth Pluckers. Friday the thirty first Halloween, we're
going to be at the Dallas Pluckers from three to six,
So we'd love to see you there. But I did
see this article today and it was from Variety, the
best pop culture Halloween Costumes for twenty twenty five, and

(00:34):
the very first one on their little list was from
this movie we've all seen and liked. I think is
Bob Ferguson from one battle after another. All you'd need
is like a fake gun, maybe a vape. You get
the big robe, the flannel robe. You can make this
work pretty easily and not really have to go buy something.
Do you guys remember the name of the Benicio del

(00:55):
Toro character?

Speaker 3 (00:56):
Hey, I would much rather be him Saloween, same since
or thinking about it, he I don't remember the character's name.

Speaker 4 (01:03):
I mean he was the sin Say.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah, but how are you gonna dress up so everyone
knows that you're being him? You don't look like Benicio
del Toro?

Speaker 4 (01:10):
I do. What wasn't he wearing like a track suit.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
Later in the thing, he was wearing white pants. I
would say, when he's getting arrested.

Speaker 5 (01:18):
Yeah, he was wearing a karate outfit with like a
jacket over it.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Awesome.

Speaker 5 (01:25):
Yeah, man, that dude, Bob Ferguson is so much like
the Big Lebowski.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
Yeah, I mean he's and and like.

Speaker 5 (01:32):
But when he threw on those giant sunglasses that that
that in the toboggan or whatever, that scully that that,
I think that would be a good look.

Speaker 4 (01:41):
I think it'd be easy to tell that's what that is.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
So a plaid robe you could get, you know, if
you don't even have to have the fake rifle, that
might be a bad plan anyways. The fake vape or
a real vape, the black beanie, the sunglasses, I mean,
it's still gonna run you a pretty good good amount.
It's not like about this article. They list down you
know what you would need if you need to go
buy this. Have you guys gone to a Spirit Halloween

(02:03):
store last couple of years. It's expensive. It's unbelievable. Fun though,
it is fun.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
I love just going and looking at what they have.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
It's fun. I miss a costume world right across the street.
Oh yeah, because you can really go in there and
find some real authentic stuff. Yeah. I liked when they
were sub letting that yard for Carrie's office.

Speaker 4 (02:24):
At the same time they were having a liquidation sale.

Speaker 2 (02:27):

Speaker 5 (02:27):
I went in there and I bought the most uncomfortable
Viking helmet you can put on your head, terrible weighs
about twenty five pounds.

Speaker 1 (02:35):

Speaker 2 (02:35):
This came up and an iHeart meeting recently where we
were all in their brainstorming ideas with the other stations.

Speaker 5 (02:42):
The boo boo.

Speaker 4 (02:44):
Man vi a l boo boo boo? Is that still
a thing?

Speaker 2 (02:47):
Apparently? Seeing that word and I hate it is the
origin of it Korean? That's a great question.

Speaker 4 (02:56):

Speaker 2 (03:23):
That would be good. Get the Adida's uh track jacket.

Speaker 5 (03:26):
That early nineties haircut, that white people had sunglasses. I
think you'd have to go with a friend also dressed
up and argue the whole time.

Speaker 4 (03:35):
Bottles. Okay, So Halloween is performance hard. Is definitely a
neat thing.

Speaker 2 (03:39):

costume for twenty bucks on Amazon.

she was right. That was a great movie. That was
a good recommendation. But like Mikes Roy, didn't he wear
the what was it? The shake and bake? Will Ferrell one,
which is which is not? That You might have a
hard time telling if someone is Brad Pitt Yeah or
Will Ferrell. They're very they're very like, very similar. Sonny

the bride is the girl in Hamnet?

Speaker 4 (05:16):
Is it really? You know, it's Hamnet. I just don't
know why they have to.

Frankenstein movie Kat was talking about, Like, nope, this is
a different one also coming out.

try to pull off. But if we wanted to be
smoking Stacked from the movie Centers. It's Michael B. Jordan
