Gregg (12:35):

monsters, it's not, you it's me.You'll just, won't take your

Gary (12:52):
It's not me. And I think it might be used something Spinks in
here,
Steve (12:59):
It's you, I want to do do S and M with you and you just
wagged your finger and said, KingTut Tut.
Aaron (13:11):

takes two to tango.
Gary (13:18):
it's not you it's me to be Pharaoh. Just don't like you.
Aaron (13:25):
okay. Well, you know what? I think that's a really good
place to go ahead
Pun Intensive (13:29):
and
Aaron (13:29):
take a break. when we come back uh, sexy, which costume,
sexy Frankenstein costume. Howabout sexy punster costume? Find
out more in a sec. Stick around.and we are back. down here in
(13:52):
Austin, on Halloween, they. Do acool thing. I'm sure they do this
in most cities where everyonedresses up in a cool costume and
people kind of parade in acircle. and you know, usually
they're paying tribute to currentevents or just Dressing up as a
ghost struggle, but it's alwaysthe pun costumes that I have. I
have found the most entertaining.for example, every year around
(14:13):
this time, you've probably
Pun Intensive (14:14):
seen an old photo
Aaron (14:15):
on the internet of that woman wearing a Slip labeled
Freud like Freudian slip or,gosh, probably been about 10
years now when Jim Halpern, inkedthe word book on his face. And a
few days later in Halloween, tonsof people use that idea To go as
Facebook. So we thought it wouldbe fun to talk about some ideas
(14:36):
for pun costumes, and, listenersfeel free to rip us off, or at
least pay a month edge to us.seriously, it would give me very
likely, no greater pleasure thanto find out that some of our
listeners have, I've done some ofthese things. so I'm going to
open with a pun costume that Imentioned in last year's
Halloween episode, Johnny rotten.Because it is a punk us doom.
(15:00):
anyone else in the
Pun Intensive (15:01):
group, want to
Aaron (15:02):
talk about some cool pun costumes that they've worn in the
past or seen in the past? Erica?
Erika (15:08):
the Punderdome in New York has a Halloween costume contest
every year. And the winner, Ithink two years ago, it was so
good. It was shark NATO, And shedressed. In a shark costume and
then had like all the NATOcountries. Taped to her. It was
so good. It, it, one, it was, itwas the best
Aaron (15:31):
that's pretty cool. And Greg, you actually sent me a
photo of one that you did a whileback.
Gregg (15:37):
Yeah, well, actually not that I'm a big costume wear, but
it just so happens that I hadstumbled upon the wonderful world
of competitive punning, whichhas, enriched me so much while I
was researching upon how we incostume for an upcoming event.
And, I wouldn't even call whatended up with it a costume. I
basically wore a placard in theplacard, had two, photos on it.
(16:00):
one of, Gregory House from theshow house, and Hawkeye Pierce,
course of mash and I, you know, Iwalk across, I have the picture
of these two characters and Ijust looked puzzled and I say,
it's a paradox.
Gary (16:15):
the best costume prompt. Putin that I ever did. we used to
meet with the punster conventionup in Chicago and they did this
kind of thing everybody'ssupposed to walk around and
you're try to guess the otherguy's puns on his costume And I
thought I'm going to have onethat nobody can guess because
it's got two answers. in. So ifthey say it's this, I'll say it's
that if they say it's that I'llsay it's this, it was like, you
(16:37):
know, the little universal symbolfor radiation. nucleus. Right. I
wrapped around my belt So it's a,it's a radiation belt. No, it's a
nuclear waste. It's a nuclear.No, it's a radiation belt.
Aaron (16:56):
Anybody else have any, anything they wanted
Erika (16:58):
It's just an idea. And you guys can help me on how to do it
the best. So if I want, I'msorry, but if I want it to be a
booby trap,
Aaron (17:07):
Oh,
Erika (17:08):
I already have
Bill (17:09):
can't go there.
Erika (17:11):
Okay, nevermind. Um, another idea I had was, Instead
of buzz light year, bud lightyear something with something
with like bud light containers,like looking like buzz light
year, maybe
Gary (17:26):
you have an affinity for bud light or is it beyond that?
Andy (17:30):
like one of those big desktop calendars
Erika (17:32):
Uh, huh.
Andy (17:33):
with maybe, I don't know, you'd have
Erika (17:35):
Oh, bud light year.
Andy (17:37):
light year.
Erika (17:38):
I love it. Yeah. Cause I was, I had a few ideas on how to
actually do it. I actually takenotes on the ideas I have. So. I
wrote down portmanteau, but thatwould be hard. I thought, should
I put a bottle of port wine on mytoe and put a mustache on me? I
don't know. I thought of HolyBible, but I, I'm not sure how I
(17:58):
would do it. Exactly.
Aaron (18:00):
Well, you dressed as a big book with a bunch of
Gregg (18:02):
Holes in it.
Gary (18:03):
About Trump hold the Bible.
Erika (18:05):
God. I've seen, I've seen one nightstand before where it's
like a nightstand with drawersand a lampshade on top. Um, I've
I don't know if I read about thisone or not, but I wrote it down.
not that's all LA what are you?I'm afraid not.
Aaron (18:25):
Yeah. Talk about boys life. 1937. That's a, that's one
of my favorites.
Andy (18:31):
these concepts are puns of each other, one year my, College
girlfriend went as a pirate and Iwent as her parents. So, you
know, and we kind of, you know,we kind of made some wordplay,
you know, people's, there were,I'm a pirate and a parrot where
we kind of said we're going asthe same thing. So
Erika (18:50):
I love couples
Andy (18:51):
but yet, but
Gregg (18:52):
you, where you perched on her shoulder or you just walked
Andy (18:55):
Uh, we sort of pretended yeah, it was,
Erika (18:58):
That's cute. 15 years ago I made a couple's costume for
myself and the guy I was datingat the time and it was almond,
joy and mountains. I was themountains. He was the almond joy.
And on the back, his said, I havenuts and mindset. I don't. The
(19:19):
best costume ever.
Gary (19:27):
Well, most of what we're talking about is like the
costumes that you would wear to aparty or something like that. Not
actually a character costume. Iwanted to reminisce a little bit
about something that I used to dowith long time ago, back before,
or even new Aaron. I think Stevewas around then. I used to do The
mad scientist show out at the,local pioneer farm. And, for many
years we did this 30, 45 minutesskit of these two mad scientists.
(19:51):
uh, The three Stooges, you know,just try to do brain transplants
and bring people to life andstuff. And we just filled the
whole thing with, puns. And everyyear I would come up with a
different name for my character,you know, dr. Rock Cod, the
palindromic surgeon, Oh, we had,sign that we put on the door said
psychotherapist, but it wasn'twide enough. So we cut. the side
down. So I said, psycho, therapist. We just had so much fun
(20:19):
with that George McLuhan. And Idid that for God, for like 10 or
12 years. my great line was I I'mnot a mad scientist
Pun Intensive (20:25):
I'm
Gary (20:26):
my happy scientist.
Aaron (20:29):
Yeah. I just thought since this is going to air a few days
before, Halloween We might givesome people some inspiration,
we're going to go ahead and, takea quick break. When we come back,
we are going to play the punslingers game and, um, yeah, I
got no joke there. Just stickaround. and we are back. All
(21:01):
right, we're going to play punslingers. the category is haunted
houses. Yeah.
Gary (21:13):
I think I'm going to be up the creaking door on this one.
Steve (21:19):
I'm going to be gobbled up the Halloween candy.
Bill (21:22):
don't trip and fall through the window pane. It might hurt
Erika (21:29):
That's how we screamed when we were locked up,
Andy (21:35):
Have you seen the movie about the green ogre is named
shriek.
Gary (21:40):

Bill (22:02):
As soon as I went in the haunted house, I needed to know
which way is the bathroom.
Aaron (22:06):
There you go.
Andy (22:08):
do you know who sold me this haunted house?
Aaron (22:11):
Who? Hey, Greg, you got it. Got something.
Gregg (22:19):
Yeah, I think after this, I might just go join a cult.
Erika (22:29):
No, I am afraid of haunted houses and cemeteries
Aaron (22:33):
How come.
Gary (22:39):
I tried to get out of the haunted house, but I couldn't
because the windows in Dora'swarlocks.

Steve (23:03):
My niece wants to go to a haunted house. I think she's
going to go with her girl scouttroop.
Gary (23:13):
if you're going to go to the second story of the loaded
house, you need to walk up verygingerly because I'm afraid of
stairs.
Aaron (23:23):

but
Steve (23:34):
Well, I was going to go to the bar in the haunted house, but
I couldn't decide. Whatstraightened I wanted to order
it. I want to get a Somby or didI want to order some, monster

After you go up those stairs, if you go to the very top

Aaron (26:44):
I was trying to get you to say it three times, but the
moment is lost. Sorry.
Bill (26:54):
sometimes people like to have a big bonfire on Halloween.
but sometimes we'll make them toobig sometimes to make them too
small. So the city had to publishsome guidelines on what you would
do that is they had to revamppowers.
Gregg (27:08):
lot of times people will pronounce words differently, like
some say ants and some seance.
Steve (27:16):
I went to the haunted house and I got hungry. So I
stopped in the restaurant I sawthey had sandwiches on the menu
and I asked, did you have Munstercheese?
Andy (27:24):
I went into the haunted house and I got lost and I
couldn't figure out how to getout. So I had to ask someone.
Gary (27:31):
I got an invitation go do a haunted house. It was an engraved
invitation they said, you need togo down to the basement Because
there's a grave I went down tothe basement and the grape was so
deep. It went all the way toChina. That's where I
foundations.
Aaron (27:47):
Oh a haunted house. Well with that one, woke up and, take
a break. going to read, exactlywhat I put here for the, outro.
We know you're always, Yeah. Idon't know. I must've made a
typo. I'm sorry. Okay. So I'mjust going to go and say, we'll
(28:10):
see On the other side of thebridge here. Alright, we are
back. Happy Halloween, everybody.We are going to close out with
Sage advice before we do, though.I want to remind you that our
website is pun intensive.com. Andif you go to instagram.com/pun
(28:34):
intensive and all the others,they have things there as well.
Uh, does anybody have anythingthat they want to, plug or tell
us about? Business-wise oranything. Oh, congrats. You
Elations. do you mind telling usher name?
Gary (28:48):
Her name is Fern. Saurus mnemonic. Hallock. say You are U
S. you, it's not. What you thinkis actually, is actually named
after a part of the Fern, theSoros
Aaron (29:01):
Oh, really? Don't tell George. Yep. Yep. Alright. Okay.
So we're
Bill (29:06):
Is she a Ferner?
Aaron (29:07):
Now she
Gary (29:08):
She know Trump and doesn't like all those burners coming
into the country.
Aaron (29:12):
so we're gonna leave you all with some advice. we already
left you with some ideas, todress up for Halloween. but we're
going to give you some generalHalloween advice I would like to
start off by getting advice fromErica
Erika (29:27):
Okay, zombie, leave that if you want to. Gord play on
Halloween. Just hone your skulls,get together a group of your pun.
Kins, leave a potion of yourdignity at home. Drink some booze
and don't run to call your mommy.Yup. I think I spoke for
everyone.
Aaron (29:49):
Great. I have some advice too. If people didn't know Disney
plus is coming
Pun Intensive (29:53):
coming out with
Aaron (29:54):
a new Broadway musical, it's a Halloween sequel to you're
a good man. Charlie Brown basedon the classic. It's the great
pumpkin Charlie Brown. It'sanother hip hop musical
Pun Intensive (30:03):
musical called peanut M and
Aaron (30:04):
M. All right. And, Gary Halleck.
Gary (30:10):
Well, everyone knows for it to have empire to thrive. He has
to have a lot of drive, becausethere's always so much at stake.
And I have, I've worn dozens ofdifferent costumes, but I'm still
a sucker for playing Dracula,even though he has the bloodline
for, and I recognized that thecount had to spend years and
years of heart draining toaccomplish what he, did, things,
(30:33):
but no things, still, have kindof a bad attitude about dressing
up as Dracula, because it'ssomething of a drag being seen as
a homosexual from trans vesselvein. here. so I'm just not sure
the public will bite bite,
Aaron (30:50):
And Greg Siegel.
Gregg (30:53):
So, I guess we're not going to have it this year, but
when my kids could go trick ortreating, they'd bring back quite
a haul and God bless them. They'dalways keep an eye out. I'm the
only one that loves coconut. Somounds I'm enjoy. Those are my go
tos. Also love Snickers. So theywould, look for them for me,
bring them home. so one, how willwe night? they came home, they
(31:13):
put their flashlights on thetable. They played their candy
out on the floor. And as I bentdown to get my big greedy
gluttonous armful I banged myhead on the table. And while I
was, reeling at that. like in abugs bunny cartoon, the
flashlights started tittering andthe guy came down bought me two.
So there's a moral here. when youpumpkin for candy, you're going
(31:35):
to get hit with a lantern Jacko.
Aaron (31:39):
good. Steve Brooks.
Steve (31:42):
Well, I've got an idea for really, the scariest conceivable
Halloween costume for this year.you take a Jekyll ladder and you
cut out the bottom of the Jackalletters. They should wear it on
your head. And then. On top ofthe Jekyll Lennar and you put an
orange right wig, and then youcan go out for Halloween dressed
(32:06):
as the great pumpkin doesn't comeany scarier than that.
Andy (32:17):
So, this is some advice, just general advice during, COVID
it's very easy for us to feelisolated and, our mental health
suffers when we don't haveproper, interaction with people.
So I'm asking for a fiend, takescare of each other and have a
video call with somebody. zoom,be a friend.
Aaron (32:37):
Alright. And I am Aaron Faisal. I am signing off with the
catch phrase. We'll see you nexttime.

Gary (01:20):
Thank you Aaron And thank you for that rousing introduction
I feel like I'm reading thecredits on Simpsons Treehouse of
horror episode 72. I have afriend around the corner from me
here in my neighborhood, Ieventually got into the
conversation where I had a chanceto slip a pun or two and on him
just to, test the waters and seewhether or not he was receptive
to putting in wordplay. And,usually what happens and happened
(01:44):
this time to either they say, Ohyeah, you should meet my dad.
Cause my dad really loves puns.Or you should meet this other
guy. I know. Cause he reallyloves puns. Right. They're kind
of deflecting as it to say, Idon't really like ponds, but I
know somebody who does. Soanyhow, he told me, yeah, guy
who, everything he writes to me,text messages, always about puns.
(02:04):
And I said, well, who is it? Imight know who it is. And he
said, Oh no, you wouldn't knowhim. I said, yeah, I might
knowing what's his name? He says,well, his name's John Lamby. I
said, I know John Lamby. InAustralia? Yes. He won the putt
off like 12 years ago. Well, Oh,I didn't, I didn't know. He ever
even came to Austin. Well, I knowI'm better than you. It was just
(02:26):
like the weirdest sort ofexistential experience. People
are always recognizing me fromall my years of being on TV and
on stage at the ton off andeverything. Yeah. what are the
chances that one punster inAustralia and we both know him.
Aaron (02:43):

big lift and, as he was, showingme the brakes this big lift is
there and it was up too high hehad to lower it to show me

All right on DMV, frequent terror, copywriter and email
writer, Greg Siegle. Hello, Greg.
Gregg (05:07):
Hey Aaron. so although this zinger was not literally

of all, I had actually zoned didit. my fellow panelists, Erica
here, and it was related to aholiday. I'll be at a different
holiday than we're discussinghere. It's one of those of of
those that. I think we've all hadthis experience You, how did I
(05:28):
not say see this before? Youknow, you, you, you you've had
this concept a million times. Soon independence day, Erica texted
me a me emoji of a cartoon,Erika, surrounded by fireworks.
So I texted back. I hope you havea good 4th of July, the other
three fourths of July as well.
Aaron (05:51):
You're right. I never thought of that. That's pretty
great. All right. Well, we'regonna, try to stick with the,
Halloween holiday theme for therest of the show, after this. if
you've ever had a terrifyingdate, you'll be able to relate to
what happens. After our break.Stick around. and we are back, we
(06:24):
are lucky enough to have a datingexpert on the panel and, that
happened across my mind, when Iwas deciding what game to do, and
I thought it'd
Pun Intensive (06:32):
be fun to,
Aaron (06:32):
talk, breaking up. I was
Pun Intensive (06:34):
just
Aaron (06:35):
of wondering, maybe you guys could give some suggestions,
were you, for example, dating aspecific person and decided to
break up with him, what would yousay to Frankenstein?
Erika (06:48):
It's not you it's me. I mean, you just never had me in
stitches.
Gary (06:59):
It's not you it's me. it's all right. If you bolt, can find
someone next time.
Gregg (07:04):
it's not, you it's me. We just don't agree on anything. Um,
Anthony meet the S and yourPrometheus's, an English major
sort of thing, I guess.
Aaron (07:17):
No, No, it's brilliant.
Steve (07:20):
it's not you It's me. I am tired of competing with the
doctor for your affection, andI'm just going to let him be the
Victor.

everybody's always accusing meof. Robbing the cradle to the
grave,
Gregg (07:56):

would ever marry
Aaron (08:00):
Annie.
Andy (08:01):

certain extent of you is made upof kale. You're just a green
skin.

times and. there's just noelectricity.

I keep telling you to. cook,second Manor And you just want to

don't try to make another pitch.Forget about It.
Steve (08:59):
it's not me. It's you? The doctor was experimenting with
your DNA and he just made yourgenes Wilder.
Aaron (09:11):

should have realized even beforeyou started dating this person,
that, it was
Pun Intensive (09:17):

restraining order. You can't comewithin a 10 mile radius.
Aaron (09:54):
Okay,
Andy (09:55):

don't get it. And I just give youa very stern. ummm
Bill (11:09):
It's not me. It's you? I don't think you have the guts to
follow through with thecommitment.
Aaron (11:14):
So skeleton was all broken up, after that. but you did have
to move on. this was aninteresting one, though. You
really thought that this wasgoing last, you like dating,
older people apparently, but itended up not turning out. How did
you break up with that mummy?
Bill (11:31):
It's not me. It's you? You're all wrapped up in
yourself.
Erika (11:34):
yes.
Aaron (11:35):
this one's super easy. it's not, you it's me. I have
mommy issues.
Gary (11:41):
you're asking me why we're breaking up. I don't need to tell
you the gauze.
Andy (11:46):
it's not you it's me. I've tried to teach you, you've never
learned how to use your,smartphone. I get tired of,
hearing all these, O series Oseries,
Steve (11:59):
You tried to sell me Amway and I don't want any part of your
pyramid schemes,
Erika (12:05):
It's not me. It's you. I don't want to live in a teepee
Gregg (12:11):
toilet paper,
Erika (12:12):
toilet paper.
Aaron (12:15):
Yeah, I have one question. What color was it
Erika (12:18):
That's definitely to apply.
Gary (12:22):
it's probably not you. It's probably me because it's our
cough, I guess.
Gregg (12:35):
guy who famously played a lot of these wonderful movie
monsters, it's not, you it's me.You'll just, won't take your
Karloff.
Aaron (12:42):
Here we go, Bill.
Bill (12:44):
Not me. It's you, you're still in denial over your last
breakup.
Gary (12:52):
It's not me. And I think it might be used something Spinks in
here,
Steve (12:59):
It's you, I want to do do S and M with you and you just
wagged your finger and said, KingTut Tut.
Aaron (13:11):
Wow,
Andy (13:11):
it's not you it's me. I never learned how to dance and it
takes two to tango.
Gary (13:18):
it's not you it's me to be Pharaoh. Just don't like you.
Aaron (13:25):
okay. Well, you know what? I think that's a really good
place to go ahead
Pun Intensive (13:29):
and
Aaron (13:29):
take a break. when we come back uh, sexy, which costume,
sexy Frankenstein costume. Howabout sexy punster costume? Find
out more in a sec. Stick around.and we are back. down here in
(13:52):
Austin, on Halloween, they. Do acool thing. I'm sure they do this
in most cities where everyonedresses up in a cool costume and
people kind of parade in acircle. and you know, usually
they're paying tribute to currentevents or just Dressing up as a
ghost struggle, but it's alwaysthe pun costumes that I have. I
have found the most entertaining.for example, every year around
(14:13):
this time, you've probably
Pun Intensive (14:14):
seen an old photo
Aaron (14:15):
on the internet of that woman wearing a Slip labeled
Freud like Freudian slip or,gosh, probably been about 10
years now when Jim Halpern, inkedthe word book on his face. And a
few days later in Halloween, tonsof people use that idea To go as
Facebook. So we thought it wouldbe fun to talk about some ideas
(14:36):
for pun costumes, and, listenersfeel free to rip us off, or at
least pay a month edge to us.seriously, it would give me very
likely, no greater pleasure thanto find out that some of our
listeners have, I've done some ofthese things. so I'm going to
open with a pun costume that Imentioned in last year's
Halloween episode, Johnny rotten.Because it is a punk us doom.
(15:00):
anyone else in the
Pun Intensive (15:01):
group, want to
Aaron (15:02):
talk about some cool pun costumes that they've worn in the
past or seen in the past? Erica?
Erika (15:08):
the Punderdome in New York has a Halloween costume contest
every year. And the winner, Ithink two years ago, it was so
good. It was shark NATO, And shedressed. In a shark costume and
then had like all the NATOcountries. Taped to her. It was
so good. It, it, one, it was, itwas the best
Aaron (15:31):
that's pretty cool. And Greg, you actually sent me a
photo of one that you did a whileback.
Gregg (15:37):
Yeah, well, actually not that I'm a big costume wear, but
it just so happens that I hadstumbled upon the wonderful world
of competitive punning, whichhas, enriched me so much while I
was researching upon how we incostume for an upcoming event.
And, I wouldn't even call whatended up with it a costume. I
basically wore a placard in theplacard, had two, photos on it.
(16:00):
one of, Gregory House from theshow house, and Hawkeye Pierce,
course of mash and I, you know, Iwalk across, I have the picture
of these two characters and Ijust looked puzzled and I say,
it's a paradox.
Gary (16:15):
the best costume prompt. Putin that I ever did. we used to
meet with the punster conventionup in Chicago and they did this
kind of thing everybody'ssupposed to walk around and
you're try to guess the otherguy's puns on his costume And I
thought I'm going to have onethat nobody can guess because
it's got two answers. in. So ifthey say it's this, I'll say it's
that if they say it's that I'llsay it's this, it was like, you
(16:37):
know, the little universal symbolfor radiation. nucleus. Right. I
wrapped around my belt So it's a,it's a radiation belt. No, it's a
nuclear waste. It's a nuclear.No, it's a radiation belt.
Aaron (16:56):
Anybody else have any, anything they wanted
Erika (16:58):
It's just an idea. And you guys can help me on how to do it
the best. So if I want, I'msorry, but if I want it to be a
booby trap,
Aaron (17:07):
Oh,
Erika (17:08):
I already have
Bill (17:09):
can't go there.
Erika (17:11):
Okay, nevermind. Um, another idea I had was, Instead
of buzz light year, bud lightyear something with something
with like bud light containers,like looking like buzz light
year, maybe
Gary (17:26):
you have an affinity for bud light or is it beyond that?
Andy (17:30):
like one of those big desktop calendars
Erika (17:32):
Uh, huh.
Andy (17:33):
with maybe, I don't know, you'd have
Erika (17:35):
Oh, bud light year.
Andy (17:37):
light year.
Erika (17:38):
I love it. Yeah. Cause I was, I had a few ideas on how to
actually do it. I actually takenotes on the ideas I have. So. I
wrote down portmanteau, but thatwould be hard. I thought, should
I put a bottle of port wine on mytoe and put a mustache on me? I
don't know. I thought of HolyBible, but I, I'm not sure how I
(17:58):
would do it. Exactly.
Aaron (18:00):
Well, you dressed as a big book with a bunch of
Gregg (18:02):
Holes in it.
Gary (18:03):
About Trump hold the Bible.
Erika (18:05):
God. I've seen, I've seen one nightstand before where it's
like a nightstand with drawersand a lampshade on top. Um, I've
I don't know if I read about thisone or not, but I wrote it down.
not that's all LA what are you?I'm afraid not.
Aaron (18:25):
Yeah. Talk about boys life. 1937. That's a, that's one
of my favorites.
Andy (18:31):
these concepts are puns of each other, one year my, College
girlfriend went as a pirate and Iwent as her parents. So, you
know, and we kind of, you know,we kind of made some wordplay,
you know, people's, there were,I'm a pirate and a parrot where
we kind of said we're going asthe same thing. So
Erika (18:50):
I love couples
Andy (18:51):
but yet, but
Gregg (18:52):
you, where you perched on her shoulder or you just walked
Andy (18:55):
Uh, we sort of pretended yeah, it was,
Erika (18:58):
That's cute. 15 years ago I made a couple's costume for
myself and the guy I was datingat the time and it was almond,
joy and mountains. I was themountains. He was the almond joy.
And on the back, his said, I havenuts and mindset. I don't. The
(19:19):
best costume ever.
Gary (19:27):
Well, most of what we're talking about is like the
costumes that you would wear to aparty or something like that. Not
actually a character costume. Iwanted to reminisce a little bit
about something that I used to dowith long time ago, back before,
or even new Aaron. I think Stevewas around then. I used to do The
mad scientist show out at the,local pioneer farm. And, for many
years we did this 30, 45 minutesskit of these two mad scientists.
(19:51):
uh, The three Stooges, you know,just try to do brain transplants
and bring people to life andstuff. And we just filled the
whole thing with, puns. And everyyear I would come up with a
different name for my character,you know, dr. Rock Cod, the
palindromic surgeon, Oh, we had,sign that we put on the door said
psychotherapist, but it wasn'twide enough. So we cut. the side
down. So I said, psycho, therapist. We just had so much fun
(20:19):
with that George McLuhan. And Idid that for God, for like 10 or
12 years. my great line was I I'mnot a mad scientist
Pun Intensive (20:25):
I'm
Gary (20:26):
my happy scientist.
Aaron (20:29):
Yeah. I just thought since this is going to air a few days
before, Halloween We might givesome people some inspiration,
we're going to go ahead and, takea quick break. When we come back,
we are going to play the punslingers game and, um, yeah, I
got no joke there. Just stickaround. and we are back. All
(21:01):
right, we're going to play punslingers. the category is haunted
houses. Yeah.
Gary (21:13):
I think I'm going to be up the creaking door on this one.
Steve (21:19):
I'm going to be gobbled up the Halloween candy.
Bill (21:22):
don't trip and fall through the window pane. It might hurt

Aaron (26:44):
I was trying to get you to say it three times, but the
moment is lost. Sorry.
Bill (26:54):
sometimes people like to have a big bonfire on Halloween.
but sometimes we'll make them toobig sometimes to make them too
small. So the city had to publishsome guidelines on what you would
do that is they had to revamppowers.
Gregg (27:08):
lot of times people will pronounce words differently, like
some say ants and some seance.
Steve (27:16):

stopped in the restaurant I sawthey had sandwiches on the menu
and I asked, did you have Munstercheese?

Sage advice before we do, though.I want to remind you that our
website is pun intensive.com. Andif you go to instagram.com/pun

Aaron (29:01):

So we're
Bill (29:06):
Is she a Ferner?
Aaron (29:07):
Now she
Gary (29:08):
She know Trump and doesn't like all those burners coming
into the country.
Aaron (29:12):
so we're gonna leave you all with some advice. we already
left you with some ideas, todress up for Halloween. but we're
going to give you some generalHalloween advice I would like to
start off by getting advice fromErica
Erika (29:27):
Okay, zombie, leave that if you want to. Gord play on
Halloween. Just hone your skulls,get together a group of your pun.
Kins, leave a potion of yourdignity at home. Drink some booze
and don't run to call your mommy.Yup. I think I spoke for
everyone.
Aaron (29:49):
Great. I have some advice too. If people didn't know Disney
plus is coming
Pun Intensive (29:53):
coming out with
Aaron (29:54):
a new Broadway musical, it's a Halloween sequel to you're
a good man. Charlie Brown basedon the classic. It's the great
pumpkin Charlie Brown. It'sanother hip hop musical
Pun Intensive (30:03):
musical called peanut M and
Aaron (30:04):
M. All right. And, Gary Halleck.
Gary (30:10):
Well, everyone knows for it to have empire to thrive. He has
to have a lot of drive, becausethere's always so much at stake.
And I have, I've worn dozens ofdifferent costumes, but I'm still
a sucker for playing Dracula,even though he has the bloodline
for, and I recognized that thecount had to spend years and
years of heart draining toaccomplish what he, did, things,
(30:33):
but no things, still, have kindof a bad attitude about dressing
up as Dracula, because it'ssomething of a drag being seen as
a homosexual from trans vesselvein. here. so I'm just not sure
the public will bite bite,
Aaron (30:50):
And Greg Siegel.
Gregg (30:53):
So, I guess we're not going to have it this year, but
when my kids could go trick ortreating, they'd bring back quite
a haul and God bless them. They'dalways keep an eye out. I'm the
only one that loves coconut. Somounds I'm enjoy. Those are my go
tos. Also love Snickers. So theywould, look for them for me,
bring them home. so one, how willwe night? they came home, they
(31:13):
put their flashlights on thetable. They played their candy
out on the floor. And as I bentdown to get my big greedy
gluttonous armful I banged myhead on the table. And while I
was, reeling at that. like in abugs bunny cartoon, the
flashlights started tittering andthe guy came down bought me two.
So there's a moral here. when youpumpkin for candy, you're going
(31:35):
to get hit with a lantern Jacko.
Aaron (31:39):
good. Steve Brooks.
Steve (31:42):
Well, I've got an idea for really, the scariest conceivable
Halloween costume for this year.you take a Jekyll ladder and you
cut out the bottom of the Jackalletters. They should wear it on
your head. And then. On top ofthe Jekyll Lennar and you put an
orange right wig, and then youcan go out for Halloween dressed
(32:06):
as the great pumpkin doesn't comeany scarier than that.
Andy (32:17):
So, this is some advice, just general advice during, COVID
it's very easy for us to feelisolated and, our mental health
suffers when we don't haveproper, interaction with people.
So I'm asking for a fiend, takescare of each other and have a
video call with somebody. zoom,be a friend.
Aaron (32:37):
Alright. And I am Aaron Faisal. I am signing off with the
catch phrase. We'll see you nexttime.
