Pop Daddy's Halloween Countdown BONUS Article!


(Posted on October 31, 2020) Day 61: Happy Halloween everyone, I couldn't let you go without one more food review, so, here's one more for the road: Krispy Kreme's Monster Donuts! 


I stopped by the Krispy Kreme in Scranton today to give this ago after seeing a few reviews and what better day to try? The line was out the door, but the wait was only about 15 mins, so that was a plus. I only took the three monster ones and decided against the "Halloween Sprinkle" 


and "Spooky Drizzle" 

due to one looking just OK and one being sold out.


 So, I get these to go and I bring home Drake, Frank and Wolfie. How did they stack up? Let's look. 

Max, er, I mean Wolfie is their chocolate frosted, glazed donut with a chocolate whipped frosting, cinnamon toast crunch ears and a sugar piece of his eyes and teeth. 

This one was pretty good, the whipped frosting either didn't have a strong flavor or the chocolate on the donut overpowered it, the CTC ears were a bit moist as well. 

Frank was their cream filled donut. This one had green frosting with black icing making out the facial features. 

Plus sugar eyes and two pretzel stick "bolts" I'm not too big on cream filled donuts and this one was just ok in my opinion. 

The sugar eyes were easier to chew through than the sugar eyes and mouth on the Wolfie donut and the pretzel sticks were stale. 

Drake is a raspberry jelly filled donuts with a purple frosted face and the same features as Frank(without bolts), this one is filled with jelly and the jelly is VERY sweet. 

I enjoyed this one though, so if you get one, I'd say get this one. 
These donuts are pretty much for decoration only, there isn't anything mind blowing about them, but it still brings out the Halloween spirit in me eating them. So if you get a chance stop by your local Krispy Kreme to cap off your Halloween season!

Pop Daddy's Halloween Countdown Day 53

Day 53: A little bit back, I reviewed my favorite Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episode. This Sunday marks 30(32 this month, Oct, 2022) years since the first one titled "The Simpsons Halloween Special" (and the only one to take place in a treehouse!) So, I thought I'd share with you my 10 favorite segments in chronological order.  The Raven (The Simpsons Halloween Special) I remember missing most of the episode and this being the only segment I saw. James Earl Jones narrates a telling of Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven" with Homer. This one doesn't bring the laughs, it gets spooky and this was actually the first time I had heard The Raven.  The Monkey's Paw (Treehouse of Horror II) Like with the Raven, this was my first hearing of this tale, as the Simpsons take a vacation in the middle east, they bring home a Monkey's Paw, but each wish has dire consequences...(I use "the turkey's dry!" When I need t...

Day 35 (Posted October 5th, 2020): It's hard to believe that this month marks the 30th anniversary of The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror anthology episodes. (on 10/25, maybe I'll pick my 3 favorite independent segments) which means 3 years from now, there will be over 100 segments(2022: One year to go!). There are many good ones, but in my opinion, the best collection in my opinion is Treehouse of Horror V.  .      Still known as the Simpsons Halloween special  After an Outer Limits-esque intro, the first segment is called "The Shinning" it revolves around the Simpson family agreeing to watch Mr. Burns' lodge for the winter. After Burns cuts the cable and takes the beer, which causes Homer to slowly descend into madness. While it turns out Bart has psychic skills. Sound familiar? It's a direct spoof of The Shining and this one brings the laughs. Segment two: "Time and Punishment" begins with Homer breaking the toaste...

Pop Daddy's Favorite Music Videos: Part 1

"I'm scared about my future and I want to talk to you." Ok, so, chances are, if the music video looks like an old timey movie or tv show, you most likely will be seeing it here. This is one of my favorites and I should add that these videos are in no particular order. So, I love the old 1950's sci fi aesthetic with the alien planet, flying saucer and giant robot. Plus, while not a big Coldplay fan, the song is a nice one. Link below, enjoy! Coldplay - Talk
