Host returns to the Friday livestream to mark Halloween, reflects on personal Halloween traditions like zombie pub crawls and costume ideas, and invites viewers to consider what makes the day meaningful for them.
Cadre is back in a familiar Friday morning Cadre today live stream space. It is Halloween today. And happy Halloween. If it's something that you celebrate and get joy from, then Happy Friday.
Alexis Wonder: Halloween is one of those days where like any kind of shared, shared holiday, people have traditions. For years, Wonder and his friend Alex have done the zombie pub crawl in Minneapolis. Every year they do something new and different. What are your Halloween traditions? Share them in the chat.
My invitation for you today is you may go. How do we do Halloween in a way that's meaningful to us? If you do those things, really cool things happen. No matter what your traditions are today, everybody live into them.
Well, hey there, Cadre. How are we doing today? I hope you're doing great, I really do. And if you're not doing great, I'm still just as excited to see you. And I am always risking remind you that you still have a lot of worth, a lot of capacity, even in these times when you may not feel 1000%. I am back in a familiar Friday morning Cadre today live stream space. I'm back at the buttered tin in St. Paul. You can maybe recognize the ceiling. You can see I got a little pumpkin sitting on my shoulder.
It is Halloween today. And happy Halloween. If it's something that you celebrate and get joy from, and if Halloween's not something you appreciate, then Happy Friday. And it's not a happy Friday, it's Friday, y'. All. I'm glad you're here. I'm glad that I'm here. I know the things that I know and I care about you. So Halloween is one of those days where like any kind of shared, shared holiday, people have traditions, right? People have things that, that fill their, fill their cup and things they do that, that make them go, ah, speak.
Wonder, how are you, my friend? It's been a while since I've seen you right here. 1% better. Nice to see you. Happy Halloween to you as well. Like Halloween, I bet people have very specific traditions. If I said right now, hey, what are those traditions, y'? All? What do you got? Share them in the chat. I'll tell you for the last handful of years, and actually we haven't probably done this for about five, six years now, but for like two or three years, Alex and I, our thing in the Halloween season was to do the zombie pub crawl in Minneapolis.
There would be an evening where people would dress up like zombies and they would close down a bunch of the city where you could go and walk around the streets and act like zombies and hear concerts and have food and drinks and so on and so forth. And like, people would stay out all night and do all the things. Here's what we would do. We would come up with a. A theme for our, our zombies. My favorite year was we were boiler room workers on the Titanic and we didn't make it out alive. So we are, you know, zombies from the Titanic.
Hey, Alexis to see you, my friend. Speak. Wonder says, I enjoy apples, candy corn and a yummy or a yummy combo. I love that 1% better. Every year we do something new and different. I guess that's tradition. Yes, it is. Often the tradition is a thing we do regularly and if the thing you do regularly is not doing things regularly, it counts, y'. All. So we would dress up like zombies. We would go to professional makeup artists. We do the whole deal. That's what we do during the day. And then, like, Zombie Pub Crawl technically would start at like, 5pm and go to, like, 3 in the morning.
So we would show up at 5pm in our zombie gear. We would walk around, and about 5:45pm we'd go home. Does it. We loved getting dressed up. We loved going walking around. And then we'd go home right away. Like 5:45pm we'd stay for 45 minutes and we'd go home. People like, what you do all this work 10. I go, yeah. Because neither of us are kind of social people. Neither of us, like, drink. Neither of us, like, like, going to, like, like, out. But we really liked the idea of zombifying ourselves. And funny enough, when we were the Titanic boiler room workers, some of their promotion people took pictures of us, and we became their publicity people for the next year.
They used all of our photos the next year, and we just laughed because we would only stay, like, we wouldn't even stay for any of the events. But they appreciated our costumes, our look, and our playfulness. My invitation for you today is you may go. I hate Halloween because everybody does X. Yeah. It's a good prompt for you to go. How. How do we do this day in a way that's meaningful to us? How do we do this day in a way that makes this. Makes this day special and worth remembering and worth living out?
If you do those things, really cool things happen. Speak. Wonder says, as a kiddo, our costumes were always homemade. Most creative. Yep. 99 makeup kit from. From Kmart on your face? But the costume was the same. It was kind of like this, right? So no matter what your traditions are today, everybody live into them. Whether this be a Friday, whether this be a holiday, whether this be a high day, a low day, no matter what, make it something. I'll see you tomorrow. Luke the Grinch. Ha ha ha.
