📣“Is Halloween really bigger than Christmas for some people?”

In this lively episode of The Sandy Show, Sandy and Tricia dive into the booming Halloween economy, revealing that Americans are expected to spend a jaw-dropping $13 billion this year. From overpriced candy to haunted house empires, Sandy shares stories of friends who make their entire annual income during spooky season—building elaborate haunted attractions that rival movie sets. Tricia brings the laughs with her own haunted house horror story, involving a surprise scare in a parking lot that sent her straight to the ice cream shop instead of inside. Meanwhile, their daughter is gearing up for her first trip to the infamous House of Torment… or is she?

The episode also explores:
  • 🎭 Comedy’s fight for recognition: Amy Poehler’s crusade to give comedy the respect it deserves, with Sandy pitching a hilarious idea for a new comedy awards show.
  • 👀 Creepy behavior flip: What do men find unsettling about women? From baby voices to weaponized secrets, Sandy and Tricia unpack the uncomfortable truths.
  • 🎁 Rapid Fire Q&A: Sandy reveals his most prized possession (spoiler: it’s a monkey mug), his dream tech upgrade, and why he’d choose a camera store over candy any day.
Memorable Quote:
"I’m trying to be healthy and live forever so I’m not a pain in your ass when I’m old." – Sandy
