Swish Edition

Scott and Robbie duke it out over Halloween candy. They question the validity of the (supposed) most popular costumes this year. They tell you which potato chip packaging you can get buried inside. And, they wonder if the great Cola War will ever get a ceasefire (it doesn't look likely).

It's all that earth-shattering pop culture fare, plus some scary news about Donnie Wahlberg, Mel Brooks' funny-because-it's-true quote, a fun new Cher + Madonna rumor, and MUCH more silliness.

Y'all watch and/or listen RIGHT NOW if you know what's good for you. Trust us, you've watched enough real news this week. You need something lighter to…um…lighten your day. It might even make your whole week! ;)

What has the Nickelodeon slime recipe, a Cher Christmas album, celebrities behaving badly in public (we're looking at you, Selma Blair and Kelly Clarkson), Roseanne Barr's questionable return, and scaredy-cat tourists jumping off Disney water rides? The October 14th episode of the Swish Edition, of course. It's all that, and a whole lot more pop culture craziness of the week.

Your hosts Scott and Robbie are also talking about Dolly's CMA tribute concert telecast, the origins of Michael Myer's "Halloween" mask, Taylor Swift kicking Ella Langley off Billboard's #1 spot, why META glasses shouldn't be allowed anywhere, the "Crystal Lake" and "Newlyweds" television premieres, "I Love Lucy" 75th anniversary, and the Bea Arthur documentary we can't wait to watch.

It's a pop culture and Halloween overload, y'all!

CORRECTION: When Scott talks about John Mayer and his history at the Las Vegas Sphere in Episode 532, he said Mayer "sometimes jumped on the stage and played with Dead & Company." Well, Mayer is a member of Dead & Company—playing guitar and singing. Scott didn't know that, and he should have done more research before saying wrong things. That said, he's not a Deadhead. Just dead in the head sometimes. He promises to do better.

Faster, louder, more important — the SWISH EDITION is back for Season 17, y'all, and this is our season premiere! If for nothing else, watch or listen to hear Robbie say, "I am a fan of things that kick a dead horse."

This week we're talking about deadly mechanical penises, missing real paper magazines like 'Entertainment Weekly,' the New York Times' stupid Top 100 TV Shows of the 21st Century, Rankin/Bass' "Mad Monster Party," Naked Eyes' Peter Byrne and Bob Mackie died, will Jack Lowden be the next 007?, Tom Cruise's "Digger" movie is bombing, Scott goes to see New Kids on the Block, Robbie stayed in "The Shining" hotel, Rob Lowe says a "St. Elmo's Fire" sequel is coming, "9 to 5" is returning to theaters this week (for charity), and MUCH MORE pop culture goodness.

A week before the Season 17 premiere episode drops on Wednesday, October 7, your Swish Edition cohosts, Scott and Robbie, jumped back behind the mics (and cameras, of course) to breakdown and criticize this past Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards. From Madonna's opening and awards, to all the performances and tributes, we're talking all the ins, outs, ups, and downs from the sometimes chaotic, but very entertaining awards show. 'Cause, you know, that's what we do.

Plus, we tease the new season coming next week…an event that should already be on your calendar!

This is a very special SWISH EXTRA --

As everyone on the planet knows by now, Dolly Parton passed away at the age of 80-years-old this past Tuesday, August 25, in Nashville. And we just had to fire up our cameras and mics and record a loving tribute.

She was universally loved by literally everyone. She was more than just a singer. She was also an actress, a businesswoman, and a humanitarian who loved everyone for who they were. She was self-deprecating and wickedly funny. She purposely steered clear of discussing politics so as not to offend any of her millions and millions of fans.

Dolly will be greatly missed and she was definitely taken too soon.

This is our love letter to a true angel.

Back in their respective studios this week, Scott and Robbie are talking about how Grandma's happy hour is happier now that the liquor laws were changed in Minnesota; because Generation Z and other young people aren't drinking much at all, bars are going the extra mile to court Gen Xers and Millennials with themed events and earlier start times; DoorDash has received FAA approval to develop and deploy their own drones to deliver food (and we're scared); how a New York state school district nixed their plans to buy $60,000 robots to help teach and tutor children; a Florida woman was booted off an Alaska Airlines flight for standing up and preaching about God in the aisle; 85 year old "Knot's Landing" actress Donna Mills has joined OnlyFans; and 90's singer Taylor Dayne announces a Las Vegas residency and Scott bought tickets to opening night this coming November.

All that, plus lots more stuff you really don't NEED to know, but will certainly appreciate. Kinda. Maybe.
