5:01
Speaker 4: I came in at number nine. I am Gordon Hayward.
5:03
Speaker 8: I wrote the Ghostbusters theme song back in the day,
5:07
Speaker 8: and I finally made the list again. I've been trying
5:11
Speaker 8: for years, you know, really putting pen to pen to paper,
5:14
Speaker 8: and finally I got another hit, and I'm really excited.
5:17
Speaker 9: Controversial, A lot of people don't consider songs poems.
5:20
Speaker 8: Well, no, see, I write the poems, and then Ray
5:22
Speaker 8: Parker Junior was going to turn into a song that
5:24
Speaker 8: had been a poem for years.
5:26
Speaker 4: I'd had it pinned up to my wall, kid, I
5:28
Speaker 4: love your life.
5:29
Speaker 8: Reading of it without the music read it makes so
5:32
Speaker 8: much more sense.
5:33
Speaker 4: Yeah, of course no.
5:34
Speaker 8: I would take this to all different types of you know,
5:37
Speaker 8: open mic nights and things like that, and then Junior
5:39
Speaker 8: is where you saw it.
5:40
Speaker 6: But yeah, would you mind reading it in poem for him?
5:42
Speaker 4: I think it's so good in poem, Yeah, the whole thing.
5:46
Speaker 8: Please, of course, of course, thank you. When there's something
5:50
Speaker 8: strange in the neighborhood, who are you gonna call Ghostbusters?
5:55
Speaker 4: It's just so different from the song.
5:57
Speaker 10: Keep going.
5:59
Speaker 8: If there's something weird and it don't look good, who
6:01
Speaker 8: are you gonna call ghostbusters? An invisible man sleeping in
6:05
Speaker 8: your bed? Who are you gonna call ghostbusters. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
6:11
Speaker 8: busting makes me feel good.
6:16
Speaker 3: That was so much more real and authentic without the music.
6:21
Speaker 6: Really sing it could be a song.
6:23
Speaker 4: I never thought of it. It did not even occur
6:26
Speaker 4: to me when I was writing.
6:27
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was just speaking, yeah, the previous thoughts.
6:33
Speaker 4: It feels nice to see you did an coming style.
6:35
Speaker 1: It makes a ghost with the yeah yeah yeah yeah,
6:39
Speaker 1: the bottom weirdly.
6:41
Speaker 8: Because I'm very free flowing in that way, so you know,
6:44
Speaker 8: it's very extremely conscious when I write.
6:45
Speaker 4: So I'll write the line before and I'll.
6:47
Speaker 8: Go yeah, yeah, So how did you land on busting?
6:51
Speaker 4: Makes it say? I thought that was definitely just a song.
6:55
Speaker 8: No, that was that was an original intent, you know,
6:59
Speaker 8: when you're I would imagine when these ghosts are ghost busting,
7:02
Speaker 8: like I wanted to put myself in their perspective, What
7:04
Speaker 8: is it to bust a ghost? And I imagine, well,
7:06
Speaker 8: it probably feels good, yeah, but you feel it's amazing.
7:11
Speaker 8: It's good, but it's good, I mean, And that's a
7:14
Speaker 8: consistent theme through all of my poetry, getting in the
7:18
Speaker 8: mind of the creator and seeing how they feel. Often
7:20
Speaker 8: it feels good because Halloween is a great feeling holiday.
7:24
Speaker 4: Yes, it's right.

18:58
Speaker 7: to call it, to cancel my trip to After that happened,
19:01
Speaker 7: I was doing a personal mission trip in Puerto No.
19:06
Speaker 1: See, it happens if they convert to your vibe.
19:12
Speaker 8: Ideally they tell other people about my vibe, and then
19:16
Speaker 8: ideally they build a church to my vibe.
19:18
Speaker 5: And then have you had I'm surely you've had successful
19:20
Speaker 5: mission trips.
19:22
Speaker 8: I've converted a lot of people. I don't know why
19:23
Speaker 8: you would assume that they're not successful.
19:26
Speaker 6: You just keept canceling them. It seems you.
19:27
Speaker 4: Know, well, listen, I put in good work when I
19:29
Speaker 4: get there.
19:30
Speaker 8: I've converted about, let's see, globally, about seventeen thousand people
19:35
Speaker 8: to my vibe and it's growing. Not me personally, but
19:39
Speaker 8: you know, these things grow, and my vibe continues to
19:42
Speaker 8: be pushed around to other people, and uh, there's little
19:45
Speaker 8: groups just kind of contributing to my vibe. It's really
19:47
Speaker 8: it's really magic.
19:48
Speaker 6: I hear they are contributing financially as well, are they not?
19:51
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I no longer.
19:53
Speaker 8: I am finally a tax free I don't have to
19:55
Speaker 8: pay taxes on my vibe.
19:57
Speaker 4: It's permission. Good grabs man's money, so yeah, to me
20:06
Speaker 4: and to contribute to the vibe. It's good, it's good.
20:08
Speaker 4: But that's what we're here to talk about. No, I
20:09
Speaker 4: think we're here to talk about our poetry.
20:11
Speaker 1: Let's want to say one more Manta Ramo, Let's move on.
20:15
Speaker 8: Man, I'm the scariest fish because he would talk about
20:20
Speaker 8: all those underwater things, and truly, the deep sea is
20:23
Speaker 8: one of the scariest places on ear.
20:24
Speaker 4: And how underwater things deal with their in laws. When
20:29
Speaker 4: you hear jellyfish talk about it's mother in law, it's spooky.
20:35
Speaker 4: We would know that without Manta Raman.
20:38
Speaker 6: Signature joke more like monster in claw, that mother in
20:44
Speaker 6: law more.
20:45
Speaker 4: Like monster claw. Yeah, it was.
20:51
Speaker 3: It was a big year. We lost a lot of
20:53
Speaker 3: Halloween poets, but.
20:55
Speaker 8: I think it inspired some great great inspired a lot
20:58
Speaker 8: of mine I write this year.
21:00
Speaker 3: I mean it was inspired a lot, and I think
21:02
Speaker 3: what happened was news got out that there was a
21:04
Speaker 3: specific haunted graveyard that you go to for inspiration, and
21:09
Speaker 3: it turned out to be a trap. It turned out
21:11
Speaker 3: that would be where people died.
21:12
Speaker 4: It was sort of a saw trap that. Yeah, it
21:14
Speaker 4: was a saw trap vibe where we.
21:16
Speaker 2: Haven't had a trap on Halloween poets since I don't
21:18
Speaker 2: know what the Great Depression.
21:19
Speaker 5: Yeah it's been, It's been so many generations.
21:27
Speaker 6: I don't know if there's has come up and passed.
21:29
Speaker 5: Halloween poets roundtables. But we are, we are being hunted.
21:33
Speaker 5: There are people who would wish us harm, and they are.
21:37
Speaker 6: The Christmas poets. They are not happy with what we're doing.
21:42
Speaker 6: They think it is an affront and they would rather
21:47
Speaker 6: us not do what we do.
21:49
Speaker 3: They don't get it started it we I mean one
21:54
Speaker 3: of the first John Spineback, he told what a American
22:00
Speaker 3: Halloween was like during the Great Depression and what that
22:04
Speaker 3: life was like. And he the Christmas poets saw that
22:08
Speaker 3: and said, we can just add a little jingle here,
22:10
Speaker 3: a little jangle there, A little Chris Kringle here, little
22:12
Speaker 3: Chris Kringle there and think that it's the same thing,
22:14
Speaker 3: and it's just.
22:15
Speaker 4: Not what they did to Walt Witchman. What did they
22:19
Speaker 4: do to They just besmirched his name so.
22:21
Speaker 2: Bad, and they took a song of myself, and that's
22:24
Speaker 2: have a merry little Christmas. If you if you read
22:27
Speaker 2: the lyrics of having merry little Christmas, you'll say that
22:31
Speaker 2: they ripped a song for myself.
22:34
Speaker 8: I don't want to instill too much prejudice like that.
22:36
Speaker 8: I know Jolly Hunter personally, and she is a brilliant poet.
22:40
Speaker 8: Is put in a lot of good work. You know,
22:41
Speaker 8: it's there's nuances.
22:44
Speaker 4: I've heard mix things about Jolly. She's difficult. She's very difficult.
22:49
Speaker 8: Calls you at late hours of the night when you
22:51
Speaker 8: shouldn't be being called to talk about a weird interaction
22:54
Speaker 8: she added some party or so like. It's these weird
22:56
Speaker 8: kind toxic friendship things. But you know that's not no
22:58
Speaker 8: reason to hang out something.
22:59
Speaker 2: But I feel like Jowey is only hanging out with
23:01
Speaker 2: poets who are being named.
23:04
Speaker 4: She's a social she's a social climber and say, I'm
23:08
Speaker 4: just i'mt well, it's a networking business.
23:13
Speaker 5: You know, it's Halloween poetry is all about who you
23:15
Speaker 5: know at the end.
23:16
Speaker 3: Of the day, and in a sad way, it's about
23:20
Speaker 3: who you and I really wish.
23:21
Speaker 5: It weren't, but to be quite honest with you, like
23:24
Speaker 5: I only got on a list all so many years
23:27
Speaker 5: ago because bumming mummy.
23:38
Speaker 6: Being bummed out at a coffee shop.

Speaker 5: in the industry. Does teach you these things earlier ones?
24:07
Speaker 8: Nepo rabies, I was trying to these neppo rabies. I
24:13

24:25
Speaker 4: out and shooting nipple rabies. It's it's getting a little
24:29
Speaker 4: too much.
24:29
Speaker 3: Of industry is now kind of being diluted by generational
24:33
Speaker 3: success in the Halloween Poetry Society.
24:36
Speaker 4: Does it ever make you think you any of you

Speaker 4: I think both. It was. It was really hard for me.
41:04
Speaker 8: It really threw off my vibe and I was just

Speaker 8: really unhappy for a long time. Because you see the
41:09
Speaker 8: billboard numbers. You see how much Gaga was able to
41:11
Speaker 8: make off this whole thing.
41:13
Speaker 4: I'm so sorry she stole goolakout Dabra.

41:29
Speaker 8: infest doing eke and ab boo and bow like there's
41:32
Speaker 8: you can you can drive yourself mad thinking of all
41:36
Speaker 8: these differences. But really just it's just putting stuff out
41:39
Speaker 8: there and not being afraid of what people say.
41:40
Speaker 4: And that's what Gaga did. And I, you know, I
41:42
Speaker 4: was afraid to put Googla kadabra out there and and
41:45
Speaker 4: it really it really bit me.
41:46
Speaker 5: Sow more of your songs, right, she stole vanish into Boo,
41:50
Speaker 5: she stole Garden of.
41:51
Speaker 4: Eked in and she stole the shallow Grave, Shallow Grave,

42:20
Speaker 3: Can you hate one of your originals that doesn't step
42:23
Speaker 3: on lady gagains.
42:24
Speaker 8: So what I did in trying to reinvent myself is
42:27
Speaker 8: go back to where it all started. And I hadn't
42:31
Speaker 8: read it in so long. I locked the Ghostbusters song
42:34
Speaker 8: into a safe because I wanted it to be pure.
42:37
Speaker 8: I didn't want to think about that anymore. And I
42:40
Speaker 8: opened the safe. I opened the safe and I.
42:43
Speaker 4: Read it, and all these ideas started flowing.
42:48
Speaker 2: So is this the ideation or this is the first
42:50
Speaker 2: draft or V one or this is the final product
42:52
Speaker 2: of the final product.
42:53
Speaker 8: Oh my god, excuse me, this is the final product.

54:15
Speaker 2: first five lines it is really important.
54:16
Speaker 9: You need to get all the information of your poem
54:18
Speaker 9: out on top. Poetry really really involves.
54:25
Speaker 4: Otherwise, I don't on the table, just say it. It's important.
