The Holiday Specials We Love: Candy, Mints, and the Five-Cent Decision
Hey HSWL FANS!
On this The Holiday Specials We Love, we are simulcasting a Heal
Squad Regular Guy Friday with — candy history, childhood memory, Hollywood mess, and why certain things just don’t work the way they used to.
We correct a major oversight and talk Life Savers. The rolls. The
hole. Pep-o-mint, Wint-O-Green, butter rum. Checkout counters, impulse buys,
and whether Life Savers have been quietly pushed down. Cherry opinions. Mint loyalty. The rich-kid Life Saver gift packs.
Old gum, novelty candy, and flavors you remember forever — sometimes for
the wrong reasons. Gumballs at the bottom. Screwballs vs. Cannonballs. Circus Fun. Push-Ups. Why half of childhood treats were about the prize, not the taste.
We also talk sick kids, late nights, steam showers, middle-of-the-night
cleanups, and the moment you know everything’s fine again — when a kid looks at you and says, “Get up.”
We pivot to talk Hollywood. The Ryan Reynolds / Blake Lively / Justin
Baldoni situation, power plays, public pile-ons, and why the old Hollywood
rules don’t seem to apply anymore.
Tiki bars. Bar-arcades. Neon lights. Why vibe matters. Why independence
matters.
As always, please give us a 5-star review on Apple.
