A Halloween-themed La Crosse Talk with UW-L political science professor, Dr. Anthony Chergosky, featuring the best and worst candies, would you love a potato while trick-or-treating and how old is too old to dress up and get free loot.

In the political realm, we get into the potential for (medical) marijuana gummies from the Wisconsin state Legislature and legalizing sports gambling statewide.

Chergosky also reveals his new favorite candy, which is nobody else’s favorite anywhere in the world. And we look at the favorite Halloween treats across the U.S. — and Minnesota’s is pretty strange. 

In terms of politics, the Wisconsin state Legislature is floating a bill on legalizing medical marijuana and we get into the internal politics within the Republican Party on that struggle. There’s also another bill to bypass the Wisconsin constitution to legalizing sports gambling statewide.
