10/16/24 Show 229 : PLACING A CALL TO TICKER-TAPE-R-US

The Gerard Cosloy Radio Hour (That Feels Like Two Hours)

episode 229 comes to you on the precipice of Game 3 of the NLCS and I’m feeling pretty good about the New York Mets’ chances against the heavily favored Los Angeles Dodgers.

For those who could give 2 fucks about the above contest, fear not, as this week’s program features no sporting content whatsoever and is instead firmly focused on a subject of universal interest : at what point is it no longer ok for someone to dress up as Darryl Porter for halloween? OK, I guess that’s sports-adjacent but I would really like an honest answer for a change
