The show that is radio alchemy took the airwaves once again Saturday morning for another successful edition of The Erwin Pawn Trade-A-Thon.

It's the show where you can buy, sell and trade.  All you have to do is give us a call and discuss what you have for sale and with any luck you'll find a buyer for the stuff you no longer need.  It's the purest form of radio possible, it is all about you and your needs.  As always you can just sit back and listen.

THE BIG QUESTION

We ask all our callers a poll question before they give their items.  With Halloween coming up this Friday we were curious how much trick-or-treating traffic you get at your house.  It seems like every year the kids going door to door gets a little smaller while grown women wearing less than tasteful costumes gets a lot larger.  Halloween isn't what it used to be.  Pretty much hijacked by the adults.

Is your home popular with trick-or-treaters?

Yes 12

No 33

Almost a 2-1 difference in the tally.  Trade-A-Thon callers are not planning on spending much on candy for trick-or-treaters they don't expect to see.

RULE #6

Each hour we bring you the specific rules of the show so everyone is on the same page and understands how the show works.  I also bring you a special rule #6 that changes each week.  It is sometimes inspired by something that has happened to me over the week and sometimes we match the rule with The Big Question and provide a running theme for the show.  That was the case this week.

Halloween always makes me think of bobbing for apples.  It isn't quite as popular these days as it used to be and for good reason.  It can be a little gross.  Use caution before you bob and keep in mind Rule #6.

Rule #6: Don't bob for apples unless you like dumping your head in a vat of other people's facial filth.

That pretty much says it all.

See you next Saturday for another Erwin Pawn Trade-A-Thon!
