Adult Trick-or-Treating & Oscars Picks

Josh and Jacquis light up the Pillow Fort on The Nightly.

Spooky-season energy meets cozy pop-culture nostalgia as the duo swap childhood Halloween stories (Waldo, Ghostbuster, Gerald from Hey Arnold!), celebrate peak Nickelodeon (Legends of the Hidden Temple, GUTS, Mark Summers, Michael O’Malley—and even a Weird Al cameo), and debate the etiquette of adult trick-or-treating. From Burbank’s cinematic yard displays to award-season predictions, they keep the conversation rolling: Sinners and One Battle at a Time emerge as likely Oscar heavyweights, with talk of IMAX spectacle, 70mm craftsmanship, and scene-stealing turns from Michael B. Jordan, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Sean Penn. The night winds down on the “great once-onlys” list—films too powerful to revisit but impossible to forget.

What you’ll hear:

• Costume flashbacks: Waldo, Ghostbuster, Gerald—plus Nickelodeon game show nostalgia
• Adult trick-or-treating: rules, optics, and free candy diplomacy
• Awards talk: Sinners vs. One Battle at a Time, prestige-meets-popcorn favorites
• Oscars preview: screenplay vs. acting races, IMAX-scale artistry
• The once-only shelf: Moonlight, Fruitvale Station, Children of Men—masterpieces we love but can’t relive
