It's time to break out beyond the norm, rethinking Halloween treats beyond candy and chocolate - because Halloween doesn't have to be every kid's (and many adult's) annual sugar fest. Trust me on this, it's possible - and without feeling like the neighborhood Scrooge. WGNO's Hank Allen joins me to share ideas for fun and festive "non-candy" Halloween handouts (think spooky tattoos, stickers, bubbles and more) that are both budget-friendly AND get two thumbs up from kids of all ages.

From recommendations on brands (think juice packs, protein bars and store-bought breads) to the 411 on carbs, collagen and sugar, I get asked some really great questions about the world of health and wellness.

Gummy vitamins have expanded far beyond the kids' aisle, many with brands claiming to be an ‘excellent source' and ‘powerful blend of essential nutrients' for adults.

Billy was honored to be joined by one of television's most prolific young stars for episode 12 of Who's On The News. Rachael O'Neil landed an exceptional reporting position out of college in New Orleans, Louisiana for WGNO. After two standout years in The Big Easy, she made her way to Dallas, Texas to continue her impressive career for CBS 11. Billy and Rachael break down all things social media during their conversation. Rachael was the perfect person to discuss this topic with — she has over 536 thousand TikTok followers and over 41 thousand Instagram followers. Her content absolutely slays. They talk about the positives and negatives of social media, posting for work vs. posting for yourself, connecting with people, building and maintaining a following and much more. At the conclusion of the interview (27:22), Billy dives deep into his new outlook on social media and how it is now his most vital tool. He also applies the pressure to everyone listening to this episode.

Billy welcomes one of the most accurate and likable forecasters on television to talk about the truths of being a meteorologist. Scot Pilié is a NOLA native and now he delivers the AM weather for Good Morning New Orleans on WGNO. Billy and Scot discuss how Scot dealt with hurricane Katrina as a young kid, how he fell in love with meteorology, what you have to study in college to become a meteorologist, how the job is done on live television, his experience as a gay man in the industry, and plenty more. After the meteorology mingle (27:32), Billy gets back on the track to discuss the importance of acknowledging your positive moments, trying new things as often as possible, and other enlightening points as the journey continues.
