Episode # 1024 - The Day Before Halloween

Much going on today, the day before Halloween and Father Anthony dedicates the first half of the show to Producer Nick, because it's his favorite holiday and Producer Nick thanks him.  Also, besides Halloween coming up on Friday, Father Anthony reminds us all about how All Saints Day is on Saturday and Friday is not only Halloween, but the Eve before All Saints Day too.  So you see, much to look forward too and all fun.  Halloween being the topic of discussion, sort of, is talking about things sort of related to it, such as the Devil's favorite word.  Why should Christians love Halloween is not only shared for Producer Nick, but everyone and raises the question, with many results, such as why it's a great holiday with giving people a reason to think about death for one thing, in terms of celebrating it and not being afraid of it, as well as firing up kids imagination, seen plainly in the costumes and trick or treating.  Another reason, is accepting the supernatural here with the idea of, obviously, ghosts, as well as bringing the community together in terms of trick or treating, pumpkin patches, and other things that make this time of the year fun.  After the first break, the show takes a different direction in talking about the various schools that have been closed lately and also talking about the New Archbishop coming in too, with Father Anthony talking about things he's done in the past related to this.  After the second break, the show turns toward talking about a little on what Father Koys discussed yesterday, politics.  Many schools are closed or closing and Father Anthony brings that up at the end of the show today.
