  [SPEAKER_02]: Welcome to the events I had draft show where we're drafting five of our favorite items and at the end, you get to judge who did it best.
• 0:15
  [SPEAKER_02]: Today we are drafting Halloween candy.
• 0:18
  [SPEAKER_02]: Seasonally appropriate, check your stoopes.
• 0:21
  [SPEAKER_02]: There will be decorations on skeletons or out.
• 0:24
  [SPEAKER_02]: The cobwebs are in the mix.
• 0:25
  [SPEAKER_02]: The pumpkin flavoring is overtaken every store stock and coffee shop.
• 0:30
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's the season to believe.
• 0:32
  [SPEAKER_02]: And so here we are, drafting our favorite Halloween candies and teams of five joining me today.
• 0:36
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's Cody Williams with fanside.com and staff driver with fanside and NHL.
• 0:41
  [SPEAKER_02]: Steph, are you ready to go candy nuclear mode?
• 0:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I'm so ready.
• 0:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: First of all, pick.
• 0:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: I've got to go with a classic.
• 0:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sorry, but I'm not sorry.
• 0:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: It is the pumpkin shape recess.
• 0:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Reces cups in the pumpkins.
• 0:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: It is by far what everyone hopes for when they're getting their Halloween candy.
• 1:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's the best for a reason and now it comes in different shapes with a higher peanut butter to coconut is what I was gonna say.
• 1:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's the wrong candy.
• 1:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: The highest peanut butter to chocolate ratio.
• 1:18
  [SPEAKER_02]: see what you can't do.
• 1:19
  [SPEAKER_02]: I forgot to lay this out is draft the candy that doesn't exist.
• 1:22
  [SPEAKER_02]: So some sort of peanut butter coconut concoctures in the shape of a pumpkin like uh but I will give you the pumpkin to recess with the first overall.
• 1:32
  [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you.
• 1:33
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to give Cody the second selection here and I'll take the wrap around Cody.
• 1:38
  [SPEAKER_02]: What would you choose second overall?
• 1:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I have to go with a new one.
• 1:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's not as classic, but man is it good.
• 1:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's nerds gummy clusters.
• 1:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: And if you're unaware of the nerds gummy clusters, they've started releasing seasonal ones.
• 1:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: So they're going to come out with a Halloween one.
• 1:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: Different flavors, different colors.
• 1:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: They do it for Easter.
• 1:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: They do it for all the different for for the July.
• 1:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: They do it for all the holidays.
• 1:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I look forward to it.
• 2:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: I have a problem.
• 2:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: If I'm being completely honest, when it comes to nerds gummy clusters, I go right past them, you know, the normal serving size and I get the big bag and I just dip my hand in there for as long as I need to and it's phenomenal.
• 2:14
  [SPEAKER_02]: That's fine to do I am now adjusting to I haven't had an opportunity to buy a Halloween candy in a while I haven't had like a good stoop or a good community and this year I do and I also have a baby That people are gonna want to see in costume.
• 2:29
  [SPEAKER_02]: So the number one question I get is what's your baby gonna be for Halloween?
• 2:31
  [SPEAKER_02]: I got no idea why don't you give me some time to breathe.
• 2:34
  [SPEAKER_02]: Deborah, but Mostly I'm also answering you know, what am I gonna buy for Halloween candy?
• 2:40
  [SPEAKER_02]: And I'm not 100% Cody
• 2:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: I have an idea for your Halloween costume as a big Yankees guy, you know the picture of Aaron Judge and Jose Altubey, you'd be Aaron Judge, she's Jose Altubey, I'm not interested in your big Yankees guy, if you thought about dressing up like an October loser, I'm not not being mean today.
• 3:01
  [SPEAKER_02]: What you said was a corner and we'll be taking an under consideration, but we have to I got to sort that out.
• 3:07
  [SPEAKER_02]: I talked to my wife.
• 3:08
  [SPEAKER_02]: I got to explain who is a L2A is potentially You know, we just saw him play last week of all the baseball players.
• 3:13
  [SPEAKER_02]: She absolutely knows who that is and we can we it's under consideration I would do it Halloween candy that we're gonna need to buy and I got to think about the overflow too because I'm gonna want it My first round pick is fun sized butter fingers
• 3:27
  [SPEAKER_02]: I don't feel like fun-sized translates that well to a lot of candy bars, but I do feel like it works really well in the butterfinger space.
• 3:36
  [SPEAKER_02]: In my second selection, I am not veering off chocolate for now.
• 3:40
  [SPEAKER_02]: Woppers number two.
• 3:42
  [SPEAKER_02]: small multi note balls and they come in classic Halloween-sized bags where like how many woppers do I want and how big do I want them to be?
• 3:49
  [SPEAKER_02]: The answer is not that big and the amount is four and I could go home easily unload a bag of the tiny Halloween woppers without really being worried about what I did to myself, my body or how much candy I'm consuming.
• 4:02
  [SPEAKER_02]: I guess people are going to give my daughter candy this year too which means
• 4:06
  [SPEAKER_02]: more candy which means more conservative on the woppers.
• 4:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: So Adam, Adam, you got to stop because what, what tiny portions, fun size, tiny bags of woppers, what are we doing?
• 4:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: What do you do?
• 4:22
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'm trying to maintain a certain degree of realism, and I guess we can all have hopes and dreams about what people may give us on Halloween.
• 4:31
  [SPEAKER_02]: And if we want to draft according to the universes that we would love to live in, where like, candy is plentiful, and people aren't being Halloween-scrooches, then I mean, great.
• 4:40
  [SPEAKER_02]: You're probably come out the victor, but I just, I know what I'm more likely to receive, and I know what I like the dablin.
• 4:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: Your first round pick is fun size.
• 4:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: I agree with you that Butterfinger does translate what I'll into other forms.
• 4:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: But that's your first round pick, fun size?
• 4:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's my issue.
• 5:00
  [SPEAKER_02]: Editors, I mean, if you'd like to add a voice that's not mine saying giant size over my previously recorded dialogue, you're more than welcome to do so.
• 5:11
  [SPEAKER_02]: I don't care if it sounds like me, Doug, whatever you want.
• 5:16
  [SPEAKER_02]: and I hear you and again, you should be thrilled though because it doesn't mean I may have or you spit the bit in this three person.
• 5:25
  [SPEAKER_02]: How would he yours decking around selection and make sure to make it normal sized?
• 5:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know what, I'm just a grateful person.
• 5:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm happy to get whatever size hit candy is given to me.
• 5:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's where I'm at.
• 5:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm gonna go with peanut butter and menims.
• 5:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: If you get the regular M&Ms, I'm not opposed to regular M&Ms.
• 5:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: Some people are like very anti that.
• 5:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: I like a regular M&Ms just fine.
• 5:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: But peanut and peanut butter are a different level.
• 5:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: We all know it, we all love it.
• 5:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: And peanut butter, I think, is even superior to that.
• 5:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: Talk about ratio.
• 5:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's a really good ratio, especially with the soft peanut butter they use in the peanut butter M&Ms.
• 5:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: So always site to get a peanut butter M&Ms.
• 6:03
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm aligned with you there.
• 6:04
  [SPEAKER_02]: I love that I've got other M&M for eyed bills and consideration for later.
• 6:08
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'll see how I do the best part about a Halloween candy draft is all candy is good.
• 6:13
  [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, that's good.
• 6:14
  [SPEAKER_02]: You're first picking the second rounds and you're finishing off the second round and then flipping it back to the first pick of the third round.
• 6:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so my second round pick is probably controversial.
• 6:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: I like smarties.
• 6:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: I like the little round or the tubes that you twist the ends, I like smarties.
• 6:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm one of those people that will separate by color.
• 6:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then I eat all of the same color all at the same time.
• 6:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think that's really cool.
• 6:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: And Halloween is really the only time new sea smarties.
• 6:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm very happy with smarties.
• 6:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I understand that I just gave you so much flag for fun size.
• 7:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm talking about something that is also this big.
• 7:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: So you're also talking about smarties, too.
• 7:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: Let's be clear about that.
• 7:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're talking about bad.
• 7:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not like I said, neco wafer.
• 7:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Those are really true.
• 7:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's true.
• 7:14
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I was going to pop in with an echoing restore.
• 7:16
  [SPEAKER_02]: I remember very specifically learning about both Kenny's at a similar time.
• 7:19
  [SPEAKER_02]: And my mom talking up echoing papers and me just having one and going, this is not, and we can't have that.
• 7:25
  [SPEAKER_02]: This is not good.
• 7:25
  [SPEAKER_02]: This is a for human consumption.
• 7:27
  [SPEAKER_02]: And so I put those in a similar category.
• 7:29
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'm glad you did it too, unwittingly.
• 7:32
  [SPEAKER_02]: But your first pick of the third round and get us going.
• 7:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: First pick of the third round, I'm sticking with sugary, going away from chocolate airheads.
• 7:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I love airheads.
• 7:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't love the mystery flavor because I want to know what I'm eating, but airheads, normal size airheads, not fun size airheads.
• 7:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's my third pick and I'm always, I'm always happy to see those in my Halloween basket.
• 8:00
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, those are incredibly good.
• 8:01
  [SPEAKER_02]: I have no qualms.
• 8:02
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna throw it back with my third round pick, but I'm gonna do it after Cody picks because that's how to force it.
• 8:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm gonna lead into controversy as well.
• 8:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: You think I'm gonna say candy corn right now, but I'm not because of the candy corn family, it is not the best.
• 8:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: The candy pumpkins are absolutely freaking delicious.
• 8:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I will hear no slender, I will take no fight for this because if you don't like them, you're wrong.
• 8:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm correct.
• 8:29
  [SPEAKER_02]: I fully on board 100% yes candy pumpkins are better than candy corn as someone who was once taken to the principal's office and consoled crying by being given candy pumpkins and like third grade yeah they're great also why was I crying at school we'll do that on another draft show when we select top five reasons to cry in elementary school
• 8:51
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to close out the third round with another I throw back as I was saying when I forgot my own rules briefly and then covered for a pretend that I didn't but I did warheads my last election the third round deeply stout a candy that I can't believe
• 9:07
  [SPEAKER_02]: had staying power from the mid 90s to today.
• 9:10
  [SPEAKER_02]: If you'd asked me in 1999, will these survive to the new millennium?
• 9:14
  [SPEAKER_02]: I would have said, no, we're leaving these alongside, you know, chupatubes and, you know, whatever the Spice Girls Lollipops were, but somehow, some way, you can still find warheads and no one else is really replicated that taste.
• 9:28
  [SPEAKER_02]: So that's my third
• 9:34
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to take a junior mince and I know that these are things that also come in small boxes and it's also let's be real I'm again, I'm keeping with the theme.
• 9:42
  [SPEAKER_02]: I like how I like the cute little serving size If somebody gave me a giant junior mince box I wouldn't say no, but I kind of like that I'm able to just get I'm able to get five six of these little thin mince slivers and call it it call it an evening So that is my first pick of the fourth round Cody who you got in the middle
• 10:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm going to go get a little bit, a little bit back on the rails.
• 10:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to go with sour patch kids.
• 10:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: I love a sour patch kids.
• 10:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: They've read recent years.
• 10:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't remember this really that often when we were children, but like more up to now, you see them in the little fun size package and the big Halloween things and look.
• 10:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: One of the best parts about being an adult is that when you're buying Halloween candy for the trick or treaters that you're come by, you buy what you want because you know you're going to end up with half of that bag.
• 10:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: And so that's one of the best parts I always make sure sour patch kids are in there.
• 10:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 10:34
  [SPEAKER_02]: You're so right.
• 10:35
  [SPEAKER_02]: And if I was, again, I was struggling with the the particularities.
• 10:39
  [SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, how much like of the sour chewable?
• 10:42
  [SPEAKER_02]: How many of them really end up in Halloween bags and the answer sour patch gets undepped?
• 10:47
  [SPEAKER_02]: You cannot debate that.
• 10:48
  [SPEAKER_02]: That's the easiest one.
• 10:49
  [SPEAKER_02]: Um, I've got a favorite that I don't think I can draft and so I won't.
• 10:53
  [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, but I'll register it after the show's Steph.
• 10:55
  [SPEAKER_02]: Finish off the fourth and start us off in the fifth.
• 10:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: Fourth round pick.
• 11:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Skittles.
• 11:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Skittles were going more sugary chewy candy taste the rainbow indeed.
• 11:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: I I love skittles in their natural form.
• 11:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: I love the freeze dried skittles that kind of pop a little bit and they've got some chew to them and the tropical flavors.
• 11:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: The berry flavors skittles.
• 11:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: Skittles do it for me.
• 11:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: First round pick in
• 11:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: or first pick in the fifth round, starburst.
• 11:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: Apparently this is just the way that I'm going is sugary, fruity.
• 11:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: Candy that this one comes usually in packs of two, I personally think that orange starburst are the worst, I will take pink, I will take red, I will take yellow, but orange goes right in the trash.
• 11:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: Starburst.
• 11:53
  [SPEAKER_02]: steps or half does have a clear theme and it's, I mean, I thought it was going to be full size candy bars and it very quickly became sweet, sugary fruit.
• 12:02
  [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
• 12:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Apparently, I might, the things, the categories that I've left out, my picks that I've left out, special mention, go to the full candy bowl left on somebody's porch.
• 12:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: That is not a candy, but it is,
• 12:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: it is a subsection and that can't just you can just take that the Halloween bylaws and you can just take that all the time put the whole thing right into right into your your bucket and the second honorable mention is full size candy bars like that.
• 12:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't matter what it is full size candy bars is the win.
• 12:39
  [SPEAKER_02]: You know I would cheat and take the whole bowl Halloween Jose
• 12:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: This is definitely a bad pick, but I gotta be true to myself.
• 12:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm pretty sure this only exists around Halloween, so I never see it otherwise.
• 12:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: I love Lafay Taffy.
• 12:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't care.
• 12:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: I teach you.
• 12:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: Lafay Taffy's absolutely phenomenal banana.
• 13:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm a big banana flavoring kind of guy and the banana flavor Lafay Taffy is a very singular flavor nothing else tastes like it, but it tastes absolutely incredible.
• 13:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm now excited for Halloween because I know I'm gonna get some banana Lafay Taffy in my life.
• 13:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: It is the best flavor.
• 13:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 13:17
  [SPEAKER_02]: It's really good.
• 13:18
  [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think that's a bad pick at all.
• 13:20
  [SPEAKER_02]: I am going to close it out again.
• 13:21
  [SPEAKER_02]: I just I don't want to finish this is so snub filled in this draft snub for days.
• 13:28
  [SPEAKER_02]: Everyone will be able to weigh in and tell us what we got wrong what we missed and there's an I mean.
• 13:32
  [SPEAKER_02]: Nobody's going to draft Cape Cat.
• 13:34
  [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think because I'm not going to do it because I'm going to take some random little bag and older lady put together by herself, which usually includes popcorn when a lady takes the time to take a little paper bag and put a couple of chocolates in there, maybe some loose smartears or skittles and then again just a couple of kernels of popcorn.
• 13:58
  [SPEAKER_02]: Um, maybe sometimes it's wet, there's a strawberry in there.
• 14:00
  [SPEAKER_02]: You don't know what you're getting.
• 14:01
  [SPEAKER_02]: Um, if somebody takes the time and care and energy to put together special little packages like party favors for your Halloween.
• 14:08
  [SPEAKER_02]: That's my favorite thing.
• 14:09
  [SPEAKER_02]: I love that.
• 14:10
  [SPEAKER_02]: I hope that's still happening.
• 14:11
  [SPEAKER_02]: I haven't triggered in forever.
• 14:13
  [SPEAKER_02]: Um, I guess I'm about to find out with that.
• 14:15
  [SPEAKER_02]: I'm right.
• 14:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: No, that's real value there, honestly.
• 14:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: There was an older lady in my neighborhood when I was growing up who hand-made popcorn balls with like kettle corn every year.
• 14:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: And it was what I looked forward to the most on Halloween.
• 14:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: So that's a great call.
• 14:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I love that.
• 14:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Sometimes they include little racers or pencils with Halloween eams or those plastic spider rings that would wear that you still like stab you more than they looked good, but yeah, that's a good, that's a good pick.
• 14:48
  [SPEAKER_02]: The only Halloween candy draft here at fanside and where you might draft a racers.
• 14:53
  [SPEAKER_02]: Let us know what we left off the list.
• 14:56
