All Of It with Alison Stewart | 5 hours ago

The new thriller "Shelter is Necessary for Existence" follows a family who purchased a brownstone in Brooklyn, only to find that the building might be haunted by the former residents, who died mysteriously. Author Brenda Iijima discusses the novel. 

Pizza is a common order on Halloween, as families prepare for trick or treating around the neighborhood. A recent list on NJ.com ranks the 125 best pizzas in the Garden State, featuring a new number one slice. Jeremy Schneider, NJ.com food and culture editor, discusses the state of pizza in New Jersey, and listeners share their favorite spot in the state.
