Hello Smarty Pants, welcome to Trusty Trivia Thursday. Today we're getting

spooky with Halloween. Before we begin, a big Halloween shot out to Connor and his mom in Cole Pepper, Virginia.

You wrote us such a nice note. Here it is.

Hi Trustee, my son and I love listening to who's smarted.

We listen all the time, in the car, on the way to school, at bedtime.

We listen to the episodes over and over again,

We love the one on the jackalope and we want to know more about the Jersey Devil.

Thanks for the awesome podcast.

Oh, thanks you too.

As you know, Smarty Pants, both of those spooky episodes

Jackalope and Jersey Devil are perfect to listen to on Halloween. So check
