This is a HeadGum Original.
Oh, man, Trey, look up at the sky.
It's a full moon on the Sabbath.
Amir's already left 55 seconds in. I was looking late on my Haftorah
when I heard a knock on my bedroom door.
I opened it up and to my surprise there was a werewolf standing there with glowing gold.
Monomers.
Tomorrow, my son, you will be a man.
But tonight's the time to join the wolfing clan.
Tomorrow you will stand at the beamer and pray.
But tonight, let's gaze at the moon and bay.
Werewolf bar mitzvah.
Spooky, scary.
Boys becoming men.
Men becoming wolves.
That's incredibly offensive, actually.
To make fun of a really sacrosanct tradition of yore.
The bar mitzvah.
A coming of age story.
As old as Judaism itself.
Yeah.
Just put this on us.
Yeah.
Because you guys are sort of dancing around.
We didn't make it.
You found it funny, I guess.
It's a classic.
Classic 30 rock song.
Oh, okay.
I think it's the best joke in television history.
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
Werewolf Bar Mitzvah, spooky, scary, boys becoming men, men becoming wolves. That's the smartest joke. Yeah. Wow. Werewolf bar mitzvah, spooky, scary, boys becoming men, men becoming wolves.
That's the smartest joke.
Yeah.
Greatest joke in television history, similar to the TV show, greatest event in television
history.
Which is?
I'm not at all.
It's a comedy show where people just remake TV shows and great events in television history.
This is unbelievable.
and great events in television history.
This is unbelievable.
Welcome to the HeadGum Podcast Halloween Spooktacular, Bluenfeld.
You love Halloween, man.
Not really.
What?
What?
Not really.
But you're dressed up.
I'm not.
You're dressed as a sad sack.
I'm just sort of in like a, it's like overcast today,
some sort of drowsy about it. Right. I was just, I was telling Mar of in like a, it's like overcast today. Some sort of drowsy about it.
Right.
I was just,
I was telling Marika as well before.
Well,
I have to,
I have to wait a little bit because we have five minutes of intros to do before I do the,
uh,
the next segment in a way.
Oh,
Oh,
right.
Cause we're waiting for the special guest.
No.
Well,
yeah,
I'd be better if Ferris is here for the,
that segment,
but I'm going to start it no matter what.
Um,
what are you guys serving to kids this year?
Glass pretzels serving to kids. for the trick-or-treating i think it's canceled this year
it should be for what reason obviously the main reason the big one the one that you can't do
anything we haven't had we haven't had anything oh look there is he did the monshi mash the monshi mash it was a graveyard monsh
uh all right ferris and now i don't have to say it three times in a row um it's been a really
hard week for your old you for your boy for your old jeff it's been emotionally draining it's been
visually straining um what's going on manonic dry eye issues with my frigging eyes.
Okay.
They get dry because I obviously stare at screens much like you guys do as well for our jobs.
But on top of that, wearing contacts dries them out.
And then also I can't produce enough tears like a normal human should.
Right?
So I have bloodshot eyes almost every day all the time.
People think I'm on drugs.
I don't really do drugs.
So it's just kind of not fair.
Is that what your appointment today was for?
The appointment was therapy in a way.
For the eyes.
My biggest issue is dry eyes.
So I have it pretty rough.
How about emotionally?
How's that going?
Emotionally, I'm on cloud nine.
Okay.
Wow.
Really good to hear.
No, I'm really bummed it's it's been
a hard week uh so this brings us to our first segment oh my god why is dropbox opening
mercury retrograde man i'll fucking telling you here we go is it cheer up jeff
he's sad this shit um so we're gonna spend the next five minutes
and I'm in a really bad mood I'm smiling
and I'm trying to be happy for the show but like
I would love it if you guys could just fucking cheer me up
Halloween style
that was the audio of Mario dying I think
and then you said sad as shit
quietly afterwards
like it was part of the song
but it's not
it's the dying sound and then the game over sound.
So you're also out of lives.
It's completely over.
And you got to start from world one.
This is a good start.
I'm starting to feel a little better.
Why?
What's that?
I was saying don't.
How you are when you're sad, you should be all.
Time plays everywhere. frowning what pisses me
off is when you're joyed yeah yeah if we had blumenfels druthers i would just i would never
smile you didn't see you shouldn't have to yeah you're uh you're a poison how do you figure you
also like you that looked you made you were happy when he said that,
which is just confusing for what we're trying to do.
It's hard to get me down.
Like, I don't, nothing could happen
where I would be in a bad mood.
Yeah.
See, Jeff, though, this was the antagonism
I was talking about last episode.
Now we have the tag team of Marika and Amir here.
The ultimate straight man combo.
Just shooting you down.
We did get a tweet.
I think you guys saw it.
The tweet said,
never do another episode
without Amir and or Marika
on the show.
Wow.
I think they were kidding, but.
I don't think so.
So the audience almost takes
our side of every argument.
Almost always.
Sorry.
This segment is about
cheering me up.
And what you just said
made it sound like I'm a bad host.
Jeff, I can actually offer something that I think will help.
And it's, guess what?
It's pretty Mario related.
That sound effect made me think about this.
And I'm serious, Jeff.
I have an extra Super Nintendo, like the original Super Nintendo system.
And I may even have an extra copy of that Super Mario Brothers All-Stars that comes
with like the first six Mario games ever made.
Amir, no texting.
Wow.
Actually, Amir just texted me saying save it.
What?
I want the...
No fucking way.
I was about to accept with open arms and an open heart.
I wanted to do a video where I sort of take a dump inside of a Super Nintendo
and put it on TikTok. That would be
perfect for this. And would you put it on TikTok?
Well, I don't know. Depends on how it turns out and if
it lines up with a song that I like.
Shorty's a little baddie.
You shouldn't do a Super Nintendo.
Jeff, I saw on one of your
recent TikToks that someone
described it as you rapping in Times New Roman, which made me laugh very hard.
How does a bastard orphan come from Haiti then? Almost become president, but then he had an extramarital affair. That's right. I'm talking Andrew Scott Hamilton. That was his name. And we all saw the rap musical because we have Disney Plus
Ferris Banshee
loves the holiday
Halloween
oh my god
loves the holiday Halloween
just say Halloween
you're already halfway there
it would have fit the rhyme scheme if you had said Halloween.
You fucked it up.
You tripped over your own foot there.
I feel neglected in my everyday life in a way.
Because, yeah, I go upstairs and my roommates don't want anything to do with me.
And family obviously sent me abroad.
And even my broad, my dame, she left me for a better reign uh the guy had a
really long lion hair uh speaking of lion uh what are you guys gonna be for halloween what are we
what i said um that my my girlfriend left me for a uh a lion no what was the question oh i said um
sorry he like he's a fitness model so like he gets paid to work out. What did you ask of us?
Oh, yeah.
It was just a question, and it's hard to say the question because I'm starting to think about his body compared to mine, and then the fact that he's richer than me.
He gets paid to work out.
He gets paid to work out.
How fun is that?
Because it's easy to be jacked if you get paid to do it, right?
Not really.
It's all to put in the work.
Well, it's hard because obviously like you're making money.
So you want to spend it on like good food and like travel and stuff.
So obviously you want to try the local cuisine when you go abroad.
Right.
This is me.
Yeah.
What were you asking us?
Oh, I was, it was a question that was like, it was Halloween related.
He, yeah, he, he runs.
Jeff, I'll just, I'll just hop in here.
I do think you should stop doom scrolling on Instagram, though,
and stop looking at your ex's new...
Yeah, that's not good.
It's hard because he gets brand deals,
and I sort of feel like I could have had brand deals if I looked like that.
You had a brand deal.
For fucking bath bombs.
Yeah, how did that come about?
I don't know. They DM'd me i don't i don't really
know why or how they found my profile but it's also like really easy to be a brand ambassador
for them like if you're just a brand ambassador because they're bath bombs you absolute fucker
yeah we got it it's easy all you have to do is have a couple thousand followers like
any of us could do it you just have to like dm them and be like hey i want to be a brand ambassador
so you dm them no they dm me i'm which is like special in a way but i'm just saying that like
i'm sure that they would have given it to everybody i don't know ferris probably
doesn't have 10 000 instagram followers i't. Thanks for the reminder. He's been paying for bath bombs like
a fool. What are you guys going to be for Halloween? Are you guys going to dress up this
year? Of course not. Dress up this year and what? Stay at home? I don't know. Like a costume
darty, like staying at home. Yeah. I'm not sure how I feel about it. I feel like it could be an act of defiance.
Defiance.
You know what I mean?
Just like, you know what? Fuck you virus. I'm still going to dress up this
special holiday Halloween and
it just, yeah.
Maybe I'll be Luigi. I'm like halfway there.
That's pretty good. Ferris, can you say something
kind of intense?
Like just anything Halloween
related and intense
sure
that's not what I thought that sound effect was going to be
I thought it was going to be it says werewolf how
and that wasn't what we just heard
yeah that was like a dog
getting hit by a car
that was the audio dog getting hit by a car.
That was the audio of my most recent video on my camera roll.
And you're exactly right.
Yeah, so you videoed that.
People always say that life is about experience, right?
It's about life experience.
And it can be positive or negative. I throw basset hounds in front of semi trucks.
Life is about experience.
It's about life experience.
So you threw a dog in front of a car.
Let's bring it in.
Let's just kind of...
I mean, after your summer, I'm not surprised
because he did get bitten by a Basset Hound,
if we'll all remember.
Why?
Sorry, another dog. That one was in front of a um yeah i think i could tell play it again yeah i guess the kind of vehicle it was
is this a segment yeah that's a german shepherd and i want to say a volvo s70 close it was an s60
wow yeah because the way. Because the way the dog
sort of hits the chassis.
It's very specific.
Do you think auto mechanics
who are working on chassis ever
have pork chassu
while in chastity?
Just because you're having a bad day
doesn't mean you have to bring the rest of us down.
That's right.
Now we chastise you.
Nice.
So you guys aren't going to dress up this year?
I feel like it's the only way to keep myself sane.
I'm feeling a little sad about it.
Sorry, Marika.
No, I agree.
I mean, I also, I often have a difficult time
trying to think of a Halloween costume.
And so now I feel like I have my, I'm free of that.
I don't necessarily have to.
Do you guys think you're going to get trick-or-treaters?
I never do.
Okay.
Yeah.
I really think in LA, trick-or-treating is forbidden.
I get why it is, but I just, it is a distance thing.
You know, you're outside, there's good airflow.
Yeah, when a family of four with kids
walk up to your door and like knock the door and yell trick or treat at you, that's a distance
thing. In my neighborhood, they sing it. Yeah. Door to door. So, like some sort of virus angel
of death going from like house to house. And then if one person has it, it just spreads to every
single person in the community. I get that. But hey, at least you get candy corn.
I couldn't swing for the candy corn
this year, actually.
It's one of the cheapest candies.
I'm giving out Kikkoman soy sauce packets.
Jesus Christ.
That I got from my Katsuya.
This show is sponsored by BetterHelp.
You know, if you had an extra hour in your day,
a lot of people would spend that very differently than the one sitting next to them.
Maybe person A would go for a run, person B would take a nap, and patient zero would read a book. The point is, a lot of us spend our time and our lives wishing we had more hours in the day.
And the question is, what is that time for? And if time was unlimited, how would you use it?
The best way to squeeze that special thing into your schedule is to know what's important to you and make it a priority thus.
Therapy can help you find what matters to you so you can do more of it.
I'm in therapy every week and I benefit from it personally as I pursue to better myself and be a better version of myself today than I

and it gets me set off to take on the day
and to be centered
and to feel like I did at least one good thing for my health.

like your personal history. What's the costume you're most proud of? I think I asked this on
one before, but not to you guys. i mean my i'm most proud of my costume
last year because i went viral on the old twitter for it uh which was a succession costume emails
lauded by the cast of succession lauded by uh ryan reynolds wait what i didn't know that part

Marika never told me about Reynolds.
That part.
I didn't know that part.
Yeah, that was that was big for me.
Yeah, I'm trying to see if I can find it.
When we were like 15 and 14, my cousin and I did a Beavis and Butthead.
Oh, that's good.
I was I was Butthead.
He was Beavis.
We had to bleach his hair.

What's the goat Halloween candy, Amir?
I'm a fan of Kit Kat and all of its variations.
I got a picture of my best Halloween costume.
I found it in my closet recently. Oh, Rubik's Cube.
That's right.
Oh, nice.
Wait, sorry.
Let's see the photo again.
So you're dressed in a square as a Rubik's Cube,
and then Jake is just dressed like he's going out on a normal night.
Was this Halloween?
Was this actually Halloween?
Jake is a cat.
Jake basically dressed up as a cat for nine years in a row
because he just didn't want to put too much effort into it.
And the costume became like cat having nine lives. So he would just buy like cat ears and draw whiskers
on and wear like a black turtleneck and that was his costume for nine years but my favorite was my
rubik's cube one did you build that yourself yeah it was a paper box that i used tape and like
construction paper to make what uh like when was the last time you guys all celebrated
halloween for real i guess this is just for amir because you're like almost over the hill um yeah
maybe 10 10 years ago or something when i was 27 i'm not over the hill i'm 37 yeah i was 12 what's
that oh nothing i was just saying i was 12 when that was happening yeah uh yeah
10 years ago is when i celebrated it last hooray yeah when did you what how old are you 27 28
yeah 22 about to be 23 okay um wow that's uh why am i here
what about ferris uh and marika do you guys celebrate halloween
religiously are you guys 37 like is anybody here my age i'm starting to feel like
creepy old dude in a way i'm 34 amir and as we age we'll just be like pretty much the same are
you actually 34 what i mean i thought you were like 28 that That's exactly right. Yeah.
I was going to say 34, finally a reason to stay.
Stick around.
A fellow mid-30s man who I call my own. A fellow Othello player.
Have you guys played Othello?
Othello, the game where you turn the checkers either black or white.
In a way, in a way.
It's the only thing.
That's the only rule about it.
Yeah, I played Othello.
Welcome to Squeal or No Squeal.
You don't need to yell over it.
In my headphones, it's very loud,
so I don't know what you guys are hearing.
In all of ours, it is.
It was bad, yeah.
All right.
We are going to play Squeal or No Squeal.
This is the only Halloween version of Deal or No Deal.
Who would like to be our main contestant?
I'll do it.
Marika.
Hell yeah.
The birthday girl.
So you guys,
you'll be the contestant.
I'll be Howie Mandela or otherwise.
Have you guys heard of the Mandela effect by the way?
Yeah.
It's where,
yeah.
Go on.
No,
I want it.
Well,
it's kind of like the mandela effect it's uh you
know unusual phenomenon when a large group of people remember something different than how it
actually occurred so the mandela effect would be a large group of people like swaths of people a
gaggle of tweens think they have hair but they're bald as shit um marika there are 20 cases on the
board uh you can see our lovely gentleman holding them in scantily clad
uniforms amir and ferris um pick a number between 1 and 20 that'll be your case and if you don't
i'll get on your case 17 17 oh okay and i don't know what's in these because obviously they're
closed cases and we work with uh price waterhouse cooper so uh you know the rules of deal or no deal
right sorry squeal or no squeal can't change it and expect me to know
the rule suddenly one by one you eliminate cases right and we see what's in the case and then you
kind of like it either gets better or worse because you know you see what you have and
whether that's better or worse the deal uh or the goal of this show instead of getting a lot of
money in a deal you want to be as scared as possible squeal right so all these things in these cases are going to be scary things and you want to walk
away with the scariest one okay all right check case uh two two i hope or ferris opens it it says
your mom's new boyfriend all rich pretty scary like am i supposed to describe? I guess so.
I mean, sure.
So that's like that one is where we'd all kind of go like, oh, like she could have had that if she had picked two.
Next case.
And Amir and Ferris, feel free to chime in.
What?
Feel free to chime in to this game you're inventing on the fly.
I don't even think you can chime in. I don't know what to say.
I guess Marika's the contestant, but we can all
pick numbers cases.
Give commentary, like, oh, that's scary.
Like, you're the crowd. You're the peanut gallery.
The walnut gallery. But at the end of the day,
you're the one that's deciding how
scary these are. Like, what you
say goes. I don't think so. They're objectively
frightening. Alright, let's keep going uh 15 15 you decide to give blood but your nurse is a vampire so
sorry can you say that word one more time yeah your nurse is a vampire so it's like they have
fangs and you're worried that they're gonna kind of draw blood with their teeth and then like you
they can tell that you're scared and they go for it uh with the needle because they're medical
professionals and then it's kind of this awkward situation where it's like oh you think just because
i'm a vampire i'm gonna suck your blood through my teeth like no i can separate work from home
i don't think i would i i wouldn't do that personally next case i don't understand yeah
okay not that scary really yeah i was shaking in my fucking boots when
i was writing these out so i don't know feels bad so america next case next case 13 13 orange oreos
are money to you so it's and what do you want me to chime in with exactly so marika's job is to say
how scary that is and then i used to chime in i don? So Marika's job is to say how scary that is.
And then I used to chime in.
I don't even think it's my job.
We all have to kind of come to that consensus.
That's kind of spooky.
Because orange Oreos are like obviously a cookie sandwich.
And you think it's money to me.
The fact that I'm using cookies as currency is like scary to other people though.
Not to me.
It's scary to you because somehow you think this
is cash and it's obviously not but you're like in some fucked up way you can pay for your gum
but i'm but i'm aware that the fact that i think it is bad like i'm exactly like you're worried
like what happened to me that's that makes no sense so you're getting your shoes shined as you
constantly do and uh you know the guy like finishes up and then you instead of tossing
him a golden doubloon you toss him an orange oreo hand next case and i'm like oh shit absolutely
next case like okay let's go rapid fire here because this is going really poorly rapid fire here because this is going really poorly. Rapid fire what? Case by case, on a case by case basis.
Three. Three.
Sneaking through air ducts and
getting stuck forever.
Forever. Yeah, that's pretty scary.
Forever.
Yes.
So just until
you die like the next week.
Or like a nice stranger starts
feeding you food and drink
through the uh the thing like we're gonna get you out of here and then they're not actively trying
to help because they like enjoy you as a pet they were infertile so like for them it's good to have
like a child in a way so that's a horror movie um seven seven every time you lawfully check out at a store, the buzzer still goes off and you go to mall jail.
Ten.
Ten. This one's
for Ferris. Frankensteined
audio. It's
the way of the world,
frankly. What is Frankensteined audio?
Are you fucking kidding
me? What is that? This is
unbelievable. I said that this episode
was half-baked before we started recording. This was
the only thing I put time and effort towards.
I mean, it's clear because you're just reading
jokes that you wrote out loud that
I'm selecting by number.
That's what
the segment is. Yeah, but you're
playing for $100, Marika.
Yeah, how do you like
that? How are these
ranked? We're not keeping track.
If you end up with the scariest one, I'll give you $1,000.
All right.
Okay, $100.
I kind of misspoke there because I don't have $1,000.
Yeah.
Next case.
19.
Really?
All right.
19 is Mercury retrograde.
I mean, sure.
Yeah.
As an editor, especially, it's scary
because obviously technological
stuff is affected.
In a way.
Fuck.
20.
Really?
I don't think you're going to want to choose 20, but fine.
Scorpio season.
What does that mean?
What?
What does that mean, Scorpio season it's what does that mean what what does that mean scorpio season
you know sometimes you really like out yourself as someone who doesn't know a lot
on the show yeah all right teaching up you want me to teach you yeah it's go for it it's funny
that you ask because uh it's a season obviously yeah and Yeah. And it happens. When?
What's that?
When?
When does it happen?
Well, I mean, I'm glad that you asked because it's like, you know, it's coming up soon or not.
Exactly.
Which one is it? I'm going to go wild guess.
Maybe not soon.
Your wild guess is maybe not soon for Scorpio season.
Things are just kind of a little wacky around that time.
That's why people say Scorpio season.
It started today.
I know.
No, and that's because it started today, which means that it's a year from happening again.
No.
Next case.
Next one.
Right.
Yeah.
Obviously, 11.
11.
All liquids are goo to you.
You're on a roll marika the one you have is pretty bad so this is gonna be yeah next so water as a gel ferris why don't you choose one 14 witches make fun of you
so you're bullied by a magician why do you know why um you don't get to know why and it might
just be some weird witch thing you
know where it's like obviously like this is a pretty normal sweatshirt but to them it might
look silly is it about things that you're self-conscious about because that changes it
next case how do we know which ones we haven't said before it's hard to keep track on the board

Amir, you're asking about Frankensteining audio?
That's what I'm going to have to do to this recording.
Marika wins. Squeal or no squeal i'm gonna with her case hack it that was number 17 and that's unsalted fries i can't stop the song we cannot hear you
i truly cannot stop it it was was a soundboard, so I clicked a button.
Can't hear you.
I clicked a button, and there's no stop sign on it because it's a soundboard.
So I pressed the button to play the song, and then it just kept going, and I couldn't stop it.
Marika wins the game because her case that she had was that fries that aren't salted.
And that's the worst.
That's the scariest thing of all because you're at a carnival.
You're at a carnival with papas fr at a carnival. With papas fritas.
And there's no sodium on them.
Got it.
Money, please?
I also lied about being able to afford the $100.
I'll still send it to you, but I'm going to get that overdraft fee.
Which is hard for me.
Don't bother.
Oh.
This was, I think, our best episode yet.
In a way.
Amir's head is in his hand.
No joke, I loved that segment.
Really?
Squealer No Skill was an instant classic.
It was iconic.
I think it was up there with Serial, episode one, season one.

and this is the debut of the song.
You want to start from scratch, work on a song right now.
Minute 37 of a podcast.
We've somehow combined two really good bits from two of our podcasters, Weiger's
Monsterfuck song
and Punch Up The Jam, our podcast
and it's somehow worse
what we're doing. I just want to make sure listeners
know that Punch Up The Jam
is a good show.
Exactly, it's like this.
What we're doing, it's good.
This happens offline. And they're actual musicians
with talent here i'm
gonna just freestyle it i have an instrumental version here and we'll freestyle the monster

He had that big fat ass, that big fat ass.

me to tears.

Alright and then here
Ferris you can do Thriller because you famously love
Michael Jackson. Oh my god.
Now I'm a
Michael Jackson fan too on top of every
canonically on this show I've become a
piece of shit but you edit it and you
could have stopped it hmm as Mike would
say I did it for the vine all right
hang on let me bring up these lyrics.
Close to midnight
And Jeff was trying to figure out what to do
for the show.
I actually don't remember the melody to this song
but here it goes.
You try to scream.
I think I'm way ahead of the song.
Who gives a fuck?
You start to freeze
and Jeff
figured out 20 lines of funny
situations and that's the show. Sorry. Yeah, you're not hired
American Idol, I can't I can't go into the office. You're going to Bollywood. See like that was worth cutting
That was fucking shit and you put me on the spot
