The Best Debate in the Universe - SHOULD OFFENSIVE HALLOWEEN COSTUMES BE TOLERATED OR HAVE THEY GONE TOO FAR?

Monday October 31st 2016

I'm joined this week by ETC Show's very own, Ricky Hayberg, one of the hosts of the wildly popular ETC show. We have the great offensive Halloween costume debate. And it's great because we had it. I want you guys to chime off in the comments to see if you find any costumes particularly offensive, and speaking of comments...

And here's the episode of ETC Show with Creepy Text Theater that I played the clip from:

Also this episode, Rucka received a promotion this week, going from DEPUTY Moderator to LIEUTENANT Moderator. I've opened up the voting on whether or not you, the listener, thinks he deserves to be promoted.

And finally, we talked about the zero tolerance policy towards creepy clowns in Germany. It sounds so final. Plus, a kid who left his braces on for 11 years and sued his dentist. Links below.
