Happy Halloween

THE DICK BUTTONS INTERVIEWS PRESENTS: ROB McCARTHY!

Forget the rules.

Forget the expectations. And sometimes… you just have to say FCK THE STANDARD!

Dick Buttons sits down with ROB McCARTHY — author of FCK THE SCRIPT and host of the FTS: Fck The Standard Podcast — for a conversation that promises to be anything but ordinary!

📖 What happens when you stop living by somebody else’s script?🎙️ Why do so many of us spend our lives trying to meet standards we never created?

🔥 And what does it really take to tear up the old playbook, rewrite your story, and start living life on YOUR terms?

We’ll get into Rob’s journey, the philosophy behind FCK THE SCRIPT, the creation of *Fck The Standard*, podcasting, personal growth, challenging expectations, and what happens when you finally decide…ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

And of course, Dick will put Rob through the infamous…⚡ DICK BUTTONS LIGHTNING ROUND! ⚡No script.

No safe little questions. No boring interview. Just two outspoken personalities sitting down for a real, unfiltered conversation about life, reinvention, breaking the rules, and refusing to live by somebody else’s definition of success.🔥 ROB McCARTHY

🎃🔥 SEASON 7 – EPISODE 3 – THE WORLD ACCORDING TO DICK BUTTONS! 🔥🎃

🎙️ THE MADNESS CONTINUES, AND DICK BUTTONS IS JUST GETTING WARMED UP!

🎃 FIRST UP... IT'S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR!

No, NOT Christmas! HALLOWEEN, DAMMIT!

Dick opens the show waxing poetic about his absolute FAVORITE time of the year! The decorations! The costumes! The candy! The atmosphere!

But there's just ONE little problem...

DICK IS WORKING ON HALLOWEEN?!

WAIT... WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?! 😱

🎬 DICK BUTTONS MOVIE REVIEW – WHALEFALL! 🐋

It's time for another trip into the mind of Dick Buttons as he puts WHALEFALL directly in his crosshairs!

Is it cinematic brilliance? An absolute disaster? Or something somewhere in between?

You know Dick NEVER holds back, and this review will be NO EXCEPTION! You'll have to tune in to hear the verdict!

⚾ THE 2026 WORLD SERIES – BREWERS VS. RAYS!

It's baseball time, and Dick is digging into the biggest questions surrounding the Fall Classic!

Do the Milwaukee Brewers REALLY have what it takes to beat the Tampa Bay Rays? Who's got the edge? Who's got the heart? And who's going to fold when the pressure is on?

Dick has some thoughts... BECAUSE OF COURSE HE DOES!

🤬 IT'S RANT TIME – DOES ANYBODY GIVE A SHIT ANYMORE?!

Whatever happened to taking PRIDE in your work?!

Showing up on time? Doing your job RIGHT? Giving a damn about the quality of what you do?!

Apparently, that's asking TOO MUCH these days!

Dick goes OFF on what he sees as the disappearing work ethic in today's society! From half-assed service to people who seemingly couldn't care less about doing their jobs, Dick has had ENOUGH!

IS IT JUST DICK, OR HAS EVERYONE DECIDED THAT MEDIOCRITY IS THE NEW STANDARD?!

🍷🇮🇹 AND THEN... IT'S TIME FOR THE VINCENZONE!

OH, SWEET JESUS... HERE WE GO AGAIN!

Vincenzo returns with another bottle of wine, this week straight from the beautiful island of SICILY! 🇮🇹

The wine is flowing, the conversation is completely UNFILTERED, and even these two knuckleheads have absolutely NO IDEA where it's going!

And just when you thought things couldn't get any more unpredictable...

🎒 WHAT'S IN THE BAG?!

One of the show's most beloved segments returns!

Vincenzo has brought ANOTHER mysterious surprise for Dick to sample, examine, question, and possibly REGRET!

WHAT IS IT THIS WEEK?!

Your guess is as good as ours!

🗳️ AND AGAINST ALL BETTER JUDGMENT... THE BOYS TALK POLITICS?!

I KNOW, RIGHT?!?!

Because apparently wine, unpredictable conversations, and TWO opinionated guys weren't dangerous enough!

What could POSSIBLY go wrong?!

🔥 THIS EPISODE HAS IT ALL!

Halloween happiness! Movie madness! Baseball battles! A full-blown RANT! Sicilian wine! Mystery bags! And political conversations that probably should have NEVER STARTED!

🍷 So grab your favorite bottle, pour yourself a generous glass, kick back, and get comfortable!

Because when Dick Buttons and Vincenzo get rolling, there's NO SCRIPT, NO SAFETY NET, AND ABSOLUTELY NO TELLING WHERE THE HELL THINGS ARE GOING!

🎙️ THE WORLD ACCORDING TO DICK BUTTONS

TUNE IN. LEAN IN. AND LET THE MAN SPEAK!

🎧 WATCH, LISTEN, LAUGH, AND FOR GOD'S SAKE... DON'T FORGET THE WINE! 🍷

🚨🎥 THE CLINTON ROAD TAPES — A DICK BUTTONS HALLOWEEN SPECIAL! 🎥🚨

👻 DROPPING OCTOBER 25, 2026 @ MIDNIGHT... THE WITCHING HOUR!!! 👻

🌑 TEN MILES OF DARKNESS. DECADES OF LEGENDS. ONE ROAD WITH A SINISTER REPUTATION.

Deep in the woods of West Milford, New Jersey, lies CLINTON ROAD — one of America's most notoriously haunted stretches of asphalt.

Ghostly apparitions. Unexplained encounters. Terrifying legends. And things that supposedly lurk in the shadows...

So naturally, THE WORLD ACCORDING TO DICK BUTTONS decided to investigate!

Armed with cameras, curiosity, questionable judgment, and a plan that probably needed a little more planning, we ventured into the darkness to separate FACT FROM FICTION!

😱 Did we capture something paranormal?

🌲 Did the legends come to life?

🚗 Or did we just discover that finding anything on a pitch-black road in the middle of nowhere is a hell of a lot harder than it sounds?

YOU BE THE JUDGE!

🎥 REAL FOOTAGE. NO SCRIPTED SCARES. NO REENACTMENTS. JUST US... AND THE DARKNESS.

🕛 PREMIERES SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25TH @ 12:00 AM EDT — THE WITCHING HOUR!

🔴 THE WORLD ACCORDING TO DICK BUTTONS PRESENTS: THE CLINTON ROAD TAPES

⚠️ SOME ROADS ARE BEST LEFT UNTRAVELED... BUT WHERE'S THE FUN IN THAT?

Dick takes a moment to pull back the curtain and give everyone a little update on the ever-expanding madness that is THE WORLD ACCORDING TO DICK BUTTONS! Where have we been? Where are we going? And perhaps most importantly… WHO THE HELL IS IN CHARGE OF THIS CIRCUS?!

🍷🤣 THE VINCENZONE – WHERE THE WINE FLOWS AND THE CONVERSATION GOES COMPLETELY OFF THE RAILS!

As ALWAYS, we close things out with everybody's favorite exercise in unscripted insanity… THE VINCENZONE!

The cork comes out, the wine gets poured, and Dick and Vincenzo start talking!
