Tonight’s episode was spooky, sweet, and soul-stirring.

Ms. B and I had mad fun diving into the history of Halloween — from ancient traditions to today’s costumes, candy missions, and kids proudly knocking door-to-door showing off who they want to be for a night. We talked characters, childhood memories, and the magic of imagination — and Ms. B even encouraged the fam to check out haunted houses and Halloween events right here in Minnesota and across the country. Did you know Anoka, Minnesota is called the Halloween Capital of the World?

From Halloween treats to time shifts, we rolled right into Daylight Saving Time — falling back this Sunday at 2 AM. Ms. B isn’t a fan, and I don’t really mind it — but hey, who’s turning down an extra hour of sleep?

Then the tone shifted as we tackled real-life reality: SNAP benefits ending this Saturday, November 1, and the staggering truth that 42 million Americans rely on food assistance in the richest country on earth. A number that stopped us cold. Ms. B pointed to policy — or the lack of it — and we reflected on community, dignity, and the work still ahead.

It was the perfect Inner Circle mix — fun, laughter, culture, and real conversation that matters.

Tap into this high-energy, heartfelt episode filled with spooky vibes, sweet moments, and serious truths.
