Hour 2 (10.29) What really killed Houdini? A hundred years later, auctioneer Gabe Fajuri weighs the famous punch, the ruptured appendix and a surgeon’s cover-up theory, ahead of his centennial auction at the Magic Castle. 

7:05 Gabe Fajuri, president of Potter & Potter Auctions, on “Houdini Returns: The Centennial Auction.” It’s 100 rare items from Kevin Connolly’s collection, many of them owned by Houdini himself, and they go up for sale at the Magic Castle in Hollywood on Oct. 31, the 100th anniversary of his death. 

7:20 Was it the punch to the stomach? A ruptured appendix? Fajuri on how Houdini really died, and on a new book by a surgeon, Houdini: The Man Who Died Twice, that argues the official story is wrong. 

7:35 Cheyenne Jackson (30 Rock, Glee) started the “One Job Away” campaign on Instagram to spotlight actors who are close to losing their SAG-AFTRA health insurance. They need about $28,000 a year in union earnings to qualify, and some are only a few hundred dollars short. Plus, DraftKings CEO Jason Robins says parents need to talk to their kids about gambling addiction. 

7:50 Rain may crash Halloween in LA this year. And slow down out there: on Halloween, kids ages 4 to 8 are 10 times more likely to be killed by a car than on a normal night.
