The Viktor Wilt Show

What's up? What's up, my peeps? I guess let's talk extreme horror. That sound good to you? So if you're a long time listener, you may know that I'm a fan of horror in general.

But I do have a special place in my heart for extreme horror. But this can be a problem sometimes. Let's talk about the woes of a book collector. It's almost like, some kind of addiction in a way, you know? I I don't know at what point I became a book collector.

It was sometime late in my teens that I started, you know, amassing books. And then my homie, Joe, who I met when I was 14 you know, know, I was already into Stephen King, but, yeah, I was a little kid. I I then dug deep into the world of extreme horror at that point. And over the years, Joe got me into a lot of different authors I probably wouldn't have heard of otherwise. And, I mean, this stuff was crazy.

I never read anything like this. Books by authors like Jack Ketchum, Edward Lee, you know, Brian Keene, Richard Laymon. The list could go on and on. Wrath James White, Poppy Z Bright. So after Joe passed, I don't know.

It was maybe about a month ago. His wife gave me a big box of his books, and, it was really nice of her. I she must have given me, like, all of his Edward Lee, and she told me, you know, like, yeah. I've read these, and I'm only gonna read them one time. That's enough.

Edward Lee is certainly not for everybody. To me, Edward Lee is really funny. But, you know, when I talk about extreme horror novels, there's really nothing you can compare this kind of stuff to. Again, not for everybody, and we're talking, like, super vile. Super vile.

Again, a lot of it makes me laugh. Kinda like the movie The Human Centipede. Most people completely disgusted. Most people wouldn't even watch it. I think it's a good movie and I think it's a comedy.

Yeah. I'm It had to be intentionally comedic. Yeah. You never see it touted as that but it's it's really funny. It's really funny, or else I just have a gross sense of humor.

So I follow this, subreddit called extreme horror lit, you know, where all the other weirdos like me that are into that kind of horror hang out. And I'm always keeping an eye out for new authors. You know? Even though I've been sucking at reading for a long time. I'm trying.

I'm trying. I've got, like, 4 books by my bed. But, I don't know. I I'll get I'll get back into it eventually, but I've sure still been buying books. Well, anyway, I was in the extreme horror subreddit, the extreme horror lit, and I saw people talking about, different authors and really crazy books.

So I'm taking notes, you know, just alright. Keep an eye out for books by so and so. And I saw this author pop up named Judith Sonnet, and, you know, that's gonna get my attention obviously because you don't see the name Judith floating around too often, and that's that's my lady's name. So did a little bit of digging and reading through posts about, her books. Turns out she's, from Salt Lake, And, well, I don't know if she's from there, but may anyway, lives in Utah.

I assume Salt Lake. And so I get looking around online. I'm like, I wonder if there's any collectible books, and there's, like, nothing out there. So I found her on Facebook and shot a message like hey you know I wanted to buy some books but I figured I'd check with you if there's any like signed books anywhere. Yeah, you can get the basic copies on Amazon and I had a a message back that you know she told me hey you know no real sign books available on the internet right now other than maybe ebay but I do have one book that I'd be willing to part with from my personal collection that Amazon banned right when I was getting it printed there's like 20 copies of it that exist but, assign it and sell it to you for I mean it's for a book that there's only 20 copies of an extreme horror collectors like you know, they spend dough.

You know? They're into it. So I'm just kinda debating. Alright. Buy direct from the author.

One of only 20 copies in the world. It's a banned book. How bad does this book have to be to be banned? I'm not even gonna say the title of it on air. The titles, you know, kind of bad.

But like all of the craziest books I've ever read, you can buy those on Amazon. The Big Head by Edward Lee. The Girl Next Door by Jack Ketchum. Those books are crazy. Crazy.

Off the rails, insane. So how bad is this book? So if it's a banned book there was only like 20 printed it seems like a good, collectible investment but I'm like, oh should I spend the dough? And I don't know what to do. I don't know what to do.

Christmas just happened. You know? So should I really drop, like, a $100 on a book? Yeah. That's a that's a steep, I mean, I'm I'm sure I've spent a little more than that on a book before, but not not by much.

That's usually, like, my limit because that's a lot of money for something that I'm gonna put on a shelf and not open because you don't wanna mess up the the copy. You don't wanna damage it any. So it's worth money down the line. So that's my early morning debate here. Do I buy a horror book that is so vile that Amazon banned it and, get a copy.

It it could be worth some good dough down the road. Never know. Anyway, I I'm very curious. Like, if it's that that terrible, I've gotta read it. I've gotta know why.

How could this be worse than The Girl Next Door? There's nothing worse than that book. Well, apparently, there's gotta be. Anyway, that's where I'm at this morning. That's, what's happening in the world of Victor Wilt and extreme horror.

Gotta stop talking about my self in the 3rd person. I I don't know. It makes me, feel awkward. Hey. Just wanna throw out a friendly reminder.

Try to be a good person, a decent human being right now. My social media feeds kinda disturbing. Alright. You know, major fires going on in California, and people are being terrible. Alright.

I get it that a lot of people are annoyed by California for some reason, and they get annoyed by celebrities and things. But I don't see people stopping the activity of watching movies or listening to music. You know, the these people whose houses are burning to the ground. Sure. Yes.

Multi $1,000,000 mansions and things like that. Very wealthy areas burning to the ground. You know, there's still people. K. And they entertain you.

Again, you have no problem firing up their tunes or going to see their movies or watching their TV shows. And they they just lost all their stuff. Alright? Try to put yourself in somebody's shoes. You know?

What if you, won the lottery and you're like, alright. I'm moving to the Hollywood Hills. I don't know. Gotta be some people who decide LA is the place. And then your home burns to the ground and you lose all your stuff.

And you're on social media, and you have all these people screaming conspiracy theories and laughing. You know, the the good old laugh react. Peaches and I were talking about this yesterday. Unfortunately, they should probably just get rid of the laugh react. It's not used near enough for just funny things.

It's used to laugh at. You know? Just used to laugh at. And yeah. I I don't know.

I just get kind of baffled by human behavior sometimes. You know? Even though, yeah, these folks, a lot of them very wealthy and such. Again, they're still just when it all boils down to it, just people. You know?

Try to be a little bit sympathetic. K? Try to not be a dirtbag. And then stop with the conspiracy theories. Have you all ever heard of energy weapons?

Alright. You do notice that this seems to happen every year, and it gets worse and worse every year. This is why we need to battle back a little bit against the anti science sentiment that has started spreading like a virus throughout America in the last number of years. Alright? Not everything's a conspiracy.

You've got a 100 mile per hour winds knocking down power lines in an area that continuously suffers from drought. Alright? When you have a 100 mile per hour winds and a fire starts, it's going to spread very quickly. We've seen this in the hills of Pocatello. Was that energy weapons as well?

Big Brother out to get us. No. It's it's called nature and, the planets kind of screwed up. You know? It's also exhausting.

Okay. Anyway, I should find something fun to talk about. I just I've got a lot of friends in the radio business who live in LA and their friends homes. You know, just normal people living in apartments. Renters losing everything.

K? These are normal people. Everybody seems focused on celebrities and things like that. I've got friends who know people who have just lost everything. And it's it's sad and it's scary.

You know, I'm hitting people up. Hey. Did you make it out okay? Hope everything's alright. Try to be nice.

K. Try to be a decent human. As you know, if you listen every day, I've recently been playing through the last of us games. Made it through part 1 in, like, record time over the holiday break. And now currently rolling through part 2, which is a divisive game.

I actually watched a short YouTube video yesterday from some guy who was talking about the upcoming season 2 of the last of us HBO show. And, man, some people some people just need to shut up. Like, just because a story doesn't go in the direction you like doesn't mean it's a bad story. I will admit shocking moments story wise in the last of us part 2. Completely unexpected, that game.

But, you know, I started off the show talking about extreme horror and things like that. A lot of my favorite pieces of entertainment aren't just sunshine and rainbows. You know, some of the best movies I've seen very bleak and, you know, have these unexpected moments that without these moments, what do you got for a story? The events that kick off the last of us part 2 make the whole story, and I'm actually nervous that they're going to change these things in some way in the upcoming season 2 of the show. And then I don't know how they how they make the story happen.

I I guess there's really no way. There's no way they can change the events that put everything in that game into motion and still, again, have a story. So I'm excited to see what they do. And as long as they stick with the masterpiece of a story that they have in that game, I think we're gonna have some very quality television that's going to be very, very well reviewed. Now there's going to be fans that aren't familiar with what happens in the last of us part 2 that I'm sure will be shocked at times during the second season of the show, but, I don't know.

Just the the takes that people have on some of these things are just so annoying. Like, I I don't know. Maybe I just have read too much over the years, and I can recognize that when storytelling has an actual impact, it's much better than just beating somebody something that's nice and pleasant. I think it's good to challenge people a little bit. So April, the last of us season 2 dropping on HBO.

The second game's a lot longer than the first one, so I would imagine, this isn't going to cover the entire second game, but I'm I'm pretty stoked pretty stoked for that to drop, and hopefully, they stick as close to the game as possible because I I said it online, but I don't know if I said it on air. You know, Red Dead 2, best video game of all time without question. But I think as far as a story goes, The Last of Us 12, I think has the better story. And I really like red dead 12 as a story. I think it's it's pretty close.

But something maybe it's because I'm a horror fan that the last of us and the unpleasantness the unpleasant surprises like the unpleasant things that happen in red dead a lot of those I would you know almost predict the last of us certainly I did not predict game 2 whatsoever whatsoever, and I loved that. I loved that it was so different from most video game experiences because I I knew. You know, about, a couple hours in, I'm like, wow. I bet a lot of people hated that. Anyway.

If you haven't watched season 1, if you haven't played the games, highly recommended. I think sadly only available on PlayStation, though. Console exclusives. You know, there's good good things and bad things about that. Well, scrolling through my homies down the hall's website, eastidahoneews.com.

You know, there are so many different new businesses opening up around here. You might not hear about all of them, and you know I like food. Oh, wait. I think most people do. Is that a bold statement?

Food's good. Well, anyway, I'm always curious what new places are opening up, and I don't know why I didn't think of this, but you just go to that, features section of the website and scroll down to east Idaho eats, and they break it down. You know, I haven't been over to this new place in Ammon, Marco's Pizza. The headline they've gotten here certainly got my attention because it says warm Ghirardelli Brownies. I mean, pizza is a pretty good selling point, but warm Ghirardelli brownies.

For some reason, a brownie sound really good right now. Anyway, I'm looking at pictures of their, pizza. They got this Hawaiian chicken pizza that looks delish, unless you're one of those pineapple people. I don't like pineapple on my pizza. Well, I do.

I think it's delicious. This one has, ham, chicken, bacon, and pineapple. A little bit of everything. Yeah. Hawaiian with the bacon on there.

Looks pretty good. Cheeseburger looks good too. Oh, they got white sauce pizzas. I I shouldn't be looking at pictures of pizza at this hour. Too early for pizza.

Anyway, if you wanna check out this article about Marco's Pizza now open in Ammon, again, just go to features at eastidahonews.com, and click on eastidaho eats. I mean, they've they've got article after article if you're looking for something new to try out. So, yeah, always remember my homies at eastidaho news.com. Got you covered. Alright.

The Foo Fighters on Kay Bear. Speaking of the Foos, I started it I started jeez. Started a post in the Kay Bear group about, unpopular metal opinions. And I mean, I guess it could just be unpopular rock and metal opinions, but, if you wanna go leave yours, find my post. It's a picture of Lisa Simpson urging everyone to come and confess their unpopular metal opinions.

Mine was Slayer has better songs than Metallica. Woah. Woah. Bold statement, buddy. But as I thought about it, there are slayer songs that I would absolutely say I like better than any Metallica song.

It's just a fact. Mohawk Mikey posted Nirvana has better music than the Foo Fighters, and that is an unpopular opinion. Maybe? I don't know because I agree with that. I think Nirvana has some songs that are better than any Foo Fighters song.

So I'd have to agree with Mohawk Mikey on that one. I mean, the foods are great. Sure. But, I mean, Nirvana changed the world. And, again, just some of the songs, I think they're better.

Freak news is powered by our friends at Greasemonkey voted Idaho's best oil change. Alright. You ready? Let's go. Let's party.

Okay. What did I wanna begin with here? I got tons of tabs open. Way too many tabs open. Okay.

Let's talk about whiny dudes. You guys gotta settle down, man. Seriously, get over it. You would think if you've got a wife that's making more money than you, that's good for your family. But, apparently, it makes dudes sad.

Men are sadder when their wives earn more than them. Like, seriously, guys, unless she's, like, shaming you for it. You loser. Look at the amount of money you're bringing home. I'm the only one taking care of this fit.

Okay. Then I'd understand being sad if you're, again, being verbally beaten down for your your poor wages, dude. But if not, like, just just get over it. Be happy for for your family and for her. Good for her.

Getting herself into a successful career and making some good dough. Quit your crying about it. I tell you Being in the era of whiny dudes is just so annoying. It's it's strange because all the guys who are the whiniest online or in the news, ones who just all they do is whine about how picked on they are and blah blah blah and oh look at the world. They all tout themselves as being alpha guys.

Like I'm so manly. Like all you do is complain and cry. How is that You know the the epitome of what a man should be weak Some guys like so so cringey, so cringey. So, yeah, dudes. I mean, I would think back in the day.

Didn't didn't they call that what, my sugar mama. You know, she's bringing home, bringing home the paycheck. I mean, I would have, you know, seen nothing wrong with, like, stay at home dads. I think that's great. I think it's great.

The guys are, you know, I don't know. They they just can be so strange. I don't know. Anyway, what else do we have? Oh, are you cranky and angry and irritable?

Yeah. Maybe these, whiny dudes need to get off social media. This shouldn't be breaking news that, social media may be impacting your mood. I mean, there's a reason that I, you know, block accounts and hide things. I know it's creating an echo chamber to do so, but it helps your mental health to block out, you know, the stupid floating around in the world.

So sometimes there's stuff that I'm like, oh, yeah. That's making me frustrated, and it's stupid. I'm going to ensure I don't see that again now sometimes I'll make posts on social media that I know will drive away some of my followers Oh, well. Oh, well. They're probably posting things I don't care to see.

Let's see. Rage baiting. Oh, is that what I do? Posting infuriating content to social media? I don't think so.

I do not I know I said I like to post things that drive away my followers, but that's not why I post them. If I post something, it's because I feel passionately that I need to get this message out there. And I'll do so knowing it might make people frustrated, but I stand behind what I say. I'm not rage baiting. Alright?

Teenage Victor Will, that was rage be rage baiting. When I'd hang out in the death in December, message board, Jade's band. I was certainly rage baiting his fans, and it was fun. But it was harmless fun. It was like, these guys suck.

Look at how tight Jade's pants are. Nice hair. You know, that kind of stuff. Alright. What else do we have here?

If you were looking to get a HOK2A license plate, probably going to be rejected even if you spell it hoktuh. Yeah. I guess a lot of the young people slang, no go at least in Illinois for, personalized license plates. See and I don't know what this thing, slang means a lot of it, so I'm not gonna say it I know we've said the word giat gayat. I don't know.

I'd have to ask our resident, gen z guy, Peaches. He gets mad if I say that. Alright. You're a millennial, Peaches. It's an exclamation used to express excitement or shock, especially in reaction to seeing large buttocks or a voluptuous woman.

Why why couldn't you put that on a license plate? Hey, I like big butts, and I cannot lie. You remember that song? Nobody's bothered by that. Right?

Everybody's got their own taste. I think you should be able to put that on a license plate. I'm not gonna review some of these others till I know what they mean. And, finally, be grateful you don't live in, I don't know if this the article says Memphis, but it says Germantown, Tennessee. Must be a suburb of Memphis.

A homeowner was cited for putting a Santa hat on her skeleton in her yard. You know, she had one of those, giant skeletons. Yeah. Apparently, in Memphis, you can't leave your decorations up more than 45 days. It's like, well, she made it festive.

I would be like, this isn't a Halloween decoration. K? This giant skeleton in my yard? This is gonna be up year round. This is just my yard decoration.

I'm goth and this is my skeleton. You know, just, it's been a long time since I painted my fingernails black. I don't have any, black makeup, you know, to put on some black lipstick and eyeliner or something. I don't got it around. But if I had the city beaten down my door because I have a, sheet metal dragon on my front porch, I'd do whatever it took to stand my ground and say, no.

This is not a Halloween decoration because it isn't. That thing's up year round. And if I had one of those, like, 10 foot skeletons, oh, yeah, it would definitely be up year round without question too much work to put it up and take it down. And it you know, it's ridiculous and cool. That's why I'll never live in an HOA.

If I wanna put up something completely stupid in my yard, I want the ability to do so. Dang it. It's the Victor Wilt Show. And what's up, Peaches? Good morning.

Good morning, man. How's it going? I had a funny dream last night that I, I went on stage in a Salt Lake City venue and started, promoting the station. I'm like, who cares about the Salt Lake City, Kay Bear, We Rule, listen to us? It would be fun to do that.

And, Yeah. It was it was pretty funny. Very nice. Well, I I hope one of these days we get the opportunity. We just have to try to get presents, which is tough.

Well, I guess we don't even need that. We can just ask for stage time. Yeah. We know we know the the people well enough, the artists well enough. I think they would allow us to.

Yeah. We might be able to pull that off. Uh-huh. We should do something like that because that would make for great social media. We bring Maddie involved with the, the camera.

Just alright. You're getting in the pit down in Salt Lake. Photo pass. Here you go. Get ready for some motion.

And, yeah. Take over the venue. I think it would be good because there's a bunch of artists that nobody from the Salt Lake radio stations are gonna show up to see. And who are they gonna are they really gonna try to physically move us off stage? No.

No. No. Especially not if you get stage time approved by the band. Exactly. You know?

I mean, we don't have to even outright trash them. We just go up and promote ourselves and make sure to strongly emphasize, you know, we're from Idaho. But you'd be The Idaho k Bear. The best. You you'd be the nice guy.

I'll be the mean one. That's how it goes. Right? So, I started a post. We've done these posts before in the Kay Bear group, but I thought it'd be fun because it's been a while about, controversial or unpopular rock and metal opinions.

Mine that I came up with today was Slayer has better songs than Metallica. What do you got for an unpopular rock or metal opinion? Do I even wanna share mine? Well, what why not? I want another post made about me.

Peach's opinion sucks or something like that. Yeah. This is just opinion based. Yeah. Opinion based.

I I personally don't really care for Black Sabbath all that much. Woah. That's my, That is controversial. Is that it just gets shoved down my throat every time I listen to it rather than I I don't even listen to it in my free time. It's just everywhere else, you know, they're they're playing them.

Yeah. See, and I would listen to Sabbath over solo Ozzy. Oh, no. See, that's that's my I'd much rather prefer solo Ozzy way over Black Sabbath. I mean, I like solo Ozzy.

I I think solo Ozzy is great, but Sabbath, just better riffage. Do I prefer Zack Wilde over Tony Naomi? Yes. Woah. Okay.

Now you gotta get Peaches. Now I gotta get out the taser. I'm not saying Tony's not a great guitar player and legendary and all that. I'm just saying I prefer Zack. Hey, man.

There would be no metal without Tony. Okay. Yeah. That's true. Whatever.

It's true. Sabbath started metal. I don't care what anybody says. I'm sure it was great back then, but Still great. You know, I've listened to Iron Man's good.

Paranoid's good. But other than that, like, I'm Oh, no. Dude, the deep cuts. No. That's where it's at with Sabbath.

Here's my here's mine. Here here we go. Dio over Ozzy and Sam. Okay. Alright.

Alright. Now you've gone too far. No. Deal with Sabbath is to me, it's it's very different. That's one of those situations where, you know, the band, they kept it going.

Ozzy left. You know, it wasn't like I don't know. Ozzy died, and then they were like, well, should we keep the name going so we can keep making as much money? Ozzy left. So I I I'm fine with them bringing in Dio.

Dio's, who doesn't like Dio? Right? I mean, he is a legend. Yeah. And from everyone I've heard, just a super nice guy.

He would I wish I could have met Dio for sure. Let's look through some of the listeners' controversial Sure. Unpopular opinions. I agreed with Mohawk Mikey on this one. I mentioned it earlier.

Nirvana is better than the Foo Fighters. Definitely. Not even close. Definitely. Yeah.

Without question. Nirvana, one of those bands that just gets shoved down your throat everywhere you go. It's kinda I'm so sick of In Bloom. It's not even funny. Well, the Nevermind album, I I don't remember what accolade it just hit, but it was, like, 500 months on the Billboard chart or something, like, the only rock album to do that or something.

People are still buying it. I I I did the Today Music History for Cannonball not that long ago where it was, like, Pink Floyd's The Wall or I think it was Dark Side of the Moon spent, like, over 700 weeks Yeah. At the top of the charts. Yeah. I did.

Another, album that I think will last for at least till the end of humanity. Another band that I really don't care for. Oh, dude. My daughter messaged me the other day for some reason asking me what are my top 5 bands, and I ended up listing about 20. I'm like, I can't pick 5.

I mean, I know my top few. You know, you'd have Tool, The Beatles, Acid Bath, 9 inch nails. And then when I was like, well, what's one more? Then they're all tied. They're all tied.

It one day, it could be Devin Townsend. One day, it could be Opeth. Could be Pink Floyd one day. Ghost in there. Poppy.

I mean, there there's so many bands. Wow. I I wouldn't say poppy is one of my favorite artists. I listen to a lot of poppy, that new album. It's it's great.

It's so good. There's only a couple songs on it that I don't like. I I think it's excellent. Album of the year. I'll I'll, like, I'll say it right now.

Though OPATH is such a complex new album, I don't think I've listened to it enough times for it to really sink in. It's like super per super prog. Yeah. So that one could you know, in 6 months, I go back and go, Opeth was better. But I don't and Queens of the Stone Age, their new album, it, every time I listen to it, gets better and better too.

So I don't know. Let's see. Kenny says Anthrax is better than Slayer. No. I I disagree as Poppy would say.

Yeah. Yeah. I like Anthrax. I do hold a grudge against anthrax, and that's you know, but even musically, they do have that great song among the living, which is based on Stephen King's The Stand. I like that one a lot.

I like the track Madhouse. Madhouse is pretty good. But, hey, this might be a controversial Anthrax opinion. Anthrax was way better with John Bush on vocals than their original singer. I I think that the Anthrax albums they put out in the nineties are way better than their most popular album.

This is a great thing to talk about when the phones are not working. Yeah. So listeners can't call us and yell at us. Well, listeners, if you wanna participate right now, it's, all online based. You need to get in the cabaret group and post your opinions there.

Let's see what else we have here. Joe says rock stars now are pansies compared to the hair metal bands. What? So those bands knew how to party. Okay.

I thought they meant, like, they were more diva ish now compared to back then. I'm like, come on. Motley Crue? Yeah. I mean, I I I don't think that bands nowadays have the, financial, power to be the kind of divas they were back in the day.

No. No. I think that people look at the hair bands and how many of those people died Exactly. And they're like, maybe I shouldn't do heroin. Same with wrestlers.

And everyone saw all those wrestlers from way back in the day and went, okay. Maybe I shouldn't do crack. You know? Yeah. Exactly.

Yeah. No. Maybe the the you know, pumping myself full of, insane amounts of steroids is not good. And, you know, living on painkillers. Look at, the unfortunate case of Chris Benoit, you know?

Exactly. Lloyd rage and all of that. Let's see here. Lauren is horrified and crushed about my slayer versus Metallica opinion. And Jake says, heck, the wiggles have better songs than Metallica.

That I would disagree. Heck, the wiggles. I appreciate that he used the word heck keeping in with, our boss's guidelines on language. So thank you, Jake. Even though I can't go with the wiggles over Metallica.

Alright. Brutal. A banger though. And, you know, though I said I like Slayer better than Metallica, it doesn't mean I am trashing Metallica. Metallica put on one of the best live shows I've ever seen.

They have tons of songs that are classics and great. You know, you can't really beat master of puppets. I got another question for you that we can save for another break. Okay. Let's save it for another break.

We'll be back in just a few. Please participate online. Hopefully, our phones will be fixed soon. For once, it's not Jade's fault. So I guess I can't throw it at him today.

We've got peaches in studio. Hey. Where was that list of the top video games? Rolling Stone. Rolling Stone.

Okay. I wanted to pull that up because, I was curious how this list played out. I don't think Ocarina of Time made it into the top 10. And I think Really? Our mutual friend, Andy Matter, was talking about that on stream because I shared the list with him too on Twitch.

And, he was like, where's Ocarina? Where's that? Screaming the whole time. Alright. The 50 greatest video games of all time.

I'm just gonna jump down to, like, the top 15 and see what we got here. It's always interesting looking at these lists because they're always different. Video games that people like are subjective. But also, Rolling Stone is notoriously bad at making lists. They'll always go for, like, that niche game that nobody cares about because they wanna seem cool.

Yeah. So that's why I'm wondering what we'll see in here or if, you know, based on my knowledge of video games, if this is a good list. Like, at 15, they've got The Witcher 3, which I haven't played, but I think that's universally known to be a fantastic video game, particularly number 3. I might have to give that a whirl one of these days. Alright.

The original Street Fighter 2 at number 14. Now that was a game changer. I mean, when that came out, you you would have been, let's see, 91, not born. Minus 5? My Peaches would have been minus 5.

I tell you what, man. When Street Fighter 2 came out, the only thing you wanted to do as a kid was be at Aladdin's Castle in the Pocatello mall in line to play Street Fighter. I think they had more than one machine because it was so popular. There were street fighting tournaments. I remember taking part in a, Street Fighter, tournament at, what was it called?

There was a used video game store in the mall. Fun Unlimited. Oh, cool. And, I did okay, but, yeah, I I I got eliminated from the competition. But Streetfighter, I don't know how many how many evenings were spent me and my friends playing that game all night on the Super Nintendo.

So I think for how it I I don't know if we'd have modern fighting games if it wasn't for Street Fighter. Yeah. We got we got a thing this list is best video games of all time. Of all time. So I I think it deserves to be on there.

But what exactly makes a a video game the best of all time? How influential it is? How popular it is? How much money it makes? Seemed to me not how much money it makes.

I'd say influential. I don't know. Because there's probably influential games that also weren't fun. I mean, it's gotta be a fun game. You know, you've gotta enjoy playing it.

Probably a lot of different factors. I I didn't look at what Rolling Stone used to determine it, but I'd say if you change the video gaming world that much, I I I got no problem with Street Fighter 2 being on there. Doom is the the same thing. Like, there are much better first person shooters than Doom, but that was, like, the OG. I was about to say this seems like it would be, like, the first one.

You're like, woah. I can walk around in a 3 d space and Yeah. Shoot these monsters. Okay. And, Doom just kinda kicked it up, you know, to a whole new level.

And Doom added that metal factor to it too. Mhmm. Yeah. With Mick Gordon and all of that. Yeah.

So I I got no problem with doom being on there even though I I think there's gotta be I mean, that game's when did it come out? 93. So, you know, that's a good 30 years old. There's definitely been more advanced first person shooters. World of Warcraft.

You know, a game I never played because I had roommates that were addicted to it. Like, that was all they did. They lived on their computers and played World of Warcraft. I just think of that South Park scene. Yeah.

Yeah. That South Park episode, that shows how popular world of Warcraft was. I think that's another game changer. Leroy Jenkins. Some of the most legendary Internet memes.

Yeah. I even though I never played it, I bet it's really good. It's gotta be with how hooked I didn't play it because I get hooked on games, and I I didn't need a game that I was going to be hooked on 247 because it doesn't end. You know? At least with Red Dead, you can reach a 100% and then go, okay.

That was a month of real life. That was 100 of hours. I better stop. I better stop for a while. Alright.

Number 11, Halo Combat Evo so that's the original Halo. The first one. Yeah. Yeah. So Back in back when I was a kid, Halo 3 was the biggest game of them all.

Dude, Halo, when that dropped I mean, I didn't have an Xbox, but, I mean, it was massive. It was massive. So I I could see that being on there. Super Metroid, another game that, it was hard. Mhmm.

So Seems like it. I had never made it through. Seems like it. It was hard old school games, man. Old school side scrollers, they were hard.

And I think Super Metroid was, like, the juiced up version of the original Metroid. You know, it took everything to a whole new level on the Super Nintendo, so I'm I'm cool with that being on the list. I'm not too surprised. I mean, how many games would we not have if it weren't for Metroid? There's so many of these.

They they have a style of games called Metroidvanias that are a combo of, Castlevania and Metroid. Okay. It's a whole genre of video games. So alright. I'm cool with that.

Skyrim? Great game. Great game. My friend, Y, who's now no longer with us was persuading me to get this game. He was every single day, you gotta get Skyrim.

I'm like, what's the hype about it? And then sure enough, I fell in love with it. Yeah. It's one of those that once you get into it, I like games where you collect things, you know, if you wander around and gather stuff. Get all the cabbage from the barrels.

Yeah. I I don't know why, but games where you collect stuff, like, Red Dead's a collect stuff game. Good old loot and shoot. The Last of Us, Resident evil. You're just collecting stuff all over the place.

Why wouldn't a zombie game be a loot and shoot? Because that's that's what's gonna happen in an apocalypse. You have to find stuff and survive. Having to ration out your ammo, figure out different ways to kill things so you don't run out of ammo. Yeah.

I could see Skyrim being on the list. Final Fantasy 7, obviously. But see, I I never got into those games. Dude. I I don't know what it's all about even.

I 1st Final Fantasy I played was, I think, Final Fantasy I I think the original on Nintendo. How old is this series? Because that's Final Fantasy 7 and that came out what year? Yeah. 97?

7. Let's see. Final Fantasy NES. When did that drop? The original.

87. 1987. So I I did play that game on the regular Nintendo, but the first one I really liked was part 3 on Super Nintendo. That's crazy. That 10 or 7 games in 10 years.

Yeah. Yeah. You know, that's how it used to be. Right. That's how it used to be with video games.

Or they got big. But Final Fantasy 7, my brother got it for Christmas, and I was playing that, and it blew my mind. It's a masterpiece. Final Fantasy 7, certainly deserves to be on the list. So far, this Rolling Stone list is is pretty good, I'd say.

Metal Gear Solid's another one I never played, but, from what I understand about it and have read over the years, it was kind of one of the big game changing, games for stealth gameplay and things like that. I think it, introduced a lot of new things that, you know, are now very common in lots of different video games. Half Life 2 is one that I I always wanted to play but never played. I don't know if, if it deserves to be at number 6 on the list, but I can't say because I I haven't played it. So I used to think that box looked weird when I saw it at Blockbuster back when I was a kid.

Like, oh, that's a weird it's like orange and there's Yeah. Half split. Alright. We got The Last of Us at number 5. I I think most people recognize that as, one of the best games of all time.

And you know it's fine. People are still talking about that casting for the is it the movie? I I For the for the little girl. Funny. I was talking with Judith about this earlier today because I watched this horrible YouTube video with the most terrible takes on the upcoming new season of last of us.

If you are like, oh, they didn't make Ellie attractive enough in the show. You're a creep. That's a little girl. Isn't it? Yeah.

In in the first game, she's 14. Yeah. You know, there's some weird weird gamers out there. Like, if you are critiquing a TV show because the 14 year old character is not as attractive as the one in the video game, you're, you're a creep. Alright?

You need to get your head analyzed. Come on. Think people. So I'm I'm pretty excited for The Last of Us, season 2, and I thought that, Bella Ramsey did a fine job in season 1. And she she did great.

I I just think that they probably wanted somebody who was more like the character. What? A redhead? Well, if you look if you look if you look at Bella Ramsay and look at the character, there's a complete The appearance is different. Is like casting me to play, like, Wilt Chamberlain.

I don't know. I they're both just young young ladies. You know, I mean, sure, you could have, what, got maybe the girl from stranger things? 11 or Millie Bobby Brown? No.

The redhead girl. Oh, Max. Yeah. I forget her name. Yeah.

She was really good in the whale. Oh, yeah. Really, really good. And, you know, having seen her performance in the whale, I don't think she's old enough though to play Ellie. She she just looked too young.

And Bella Ramsey can be a, you know, an angry character. Ellie's got a lot of rage. Hollywood goes for that, if you look much younger than you actually are, they'll like you a lot. Yeah. So They'll cast you for little kids stuff.

Mario World from Super Nintendo at number 4. But see all these games are way before me. Yeah. You play Super Mario World and Metroid and Final Fantasy. Yeah.

See, and I'm maybe you should go back and play some of these, man. Mario World Cup. I wouldn't experience them compared to how you would have back in those days because it's not revolutionary. It's just like That's true. I'm playing a boomer game here.

It's like me watching a movie from the fifties. Yeah. When that game came out, this was back when they would have the displays that you could try the games out in the in the, department stores. I talked about that with Mario 64, but, when the Super Nintendo the first time I saw it because of all the different colors and the I mean, Super Mario World was you're like, oh, I could never get better than this. This is crazy.

16 bit graphics. I just saw a whole video explaining this new computer where if you turn on this certain feature, it can do 220 frames per second. 220 frames per second? He was showing the game, black something Wukon. Black soldier Wukon something like that.

Really even need to go past a 120? Like, because 60 frames per second looks amazing. I'll have to show you that video. It's I'll have to check it out. Pretty wild.

Yeah. Grand Theft Auto 5 at number 3. I'm definitely fine with that. One of the best games of all time when it comes to the the money that it made, the story, everything. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. It's, it was another game changer. I mean, the series Grand Theft Auto. I they probably had to pick just one because I'd say as far as impact, Grand Theft Auto 3 completely changed gaming. But in online gaming, GTA 5 definitely changed changed everything.

The series is funny because you're like, you can just go around and kill people for no reason. Well Like, it just it made a lot of people take up their frustrations in the video games, you know? Dude, there would be times when I'm having a bad day. I haven't done this in a while, but back in the day, if I was feeling really cranky You drive on the sidewalk. I just fire up Grand Theft Auto and just go around and get some rage out.

But and I think that's what a lot of people think those games are is just kinda mindless like violence, but, no, they've got a great story. They're super fun. All kinds of different crazy missions. They they are that popular for a very good reason. Now there there's a reason that GTA 6 is the most anticipated game of all time.

I'm excited for it. I'm so excited. Alright. Number 2 is a weird one. Wait a minute.

We're in the top 15, and I ain't seen no red dead? No Red Dead part 2 in the top 15? It's not it's not gonna be number 1 either. K. Tetris at number 2, Tetris is, I would say, one of the greatest games of all time.

But but why is that? Why is that one of the greatest games of all time? Because I think he just had to be there, man. And then there's okay. It's one of those cases.

Because I was thinking, like, you have to put the colored bricks with the other same colored bricks. Oh. I mean, super challenging, super frustrating. Well, I can see because, like, if you play pawn now, it's like, okay, pawn's just some stupid little game. But back in the day, that was the first video game.

Yeah. And when Tetris I think when most people were introduced to it was when it, came out with the Game Boy. And the Game Boy was one of those things like, oh my gosh. Look at it's in I could play video games I did have anywhere. I I did have a Game Boy Color.

I couldn't play it at night as per usual. Yeah. You had to get a backlight or something attached to it. Like the big magnifying thing that would light up the screen. And I remember you told me what was at number 1, which I'm I am fine with this being number 1 on the list.

I'm not. Screw it. But you haven't played through it. I don't care for Zelda. I wouldn't have said that unless I played through it.

But having played through this game, last year, Breath of the Wild, Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild I'm so mad it's not Battletoads. That's my thing. Battletoads? Where is Red Dead 2 on this one? Control f?

Like, just fine. Try to find it. Well, but I'm on a different oh, wait. You're right. Control f.

Red Dead Redemption. Amazingly, they have all of them on one page here. So, red oh, it was at number 16. I started at 50. K.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is better I can't I can't say I haven't played The Witcher. It's better than Street Fighter. It's better than Doom. It's better than World of Warcraft. It's better than Halo.

It's better than Metroid. Well, you gotta think about this. It's better than Skyrim. You're like comparing, athletes from different eras. You can't compare Bob Cousy to somebody from the modern age because it was an entirely different game.

Yeah. But they have, Breath of the Wild at number 1. And I have Yeah. They got The Last of Us in there and, you know, I've actually mentioned earlier on the show. The Last of Us, I think, has a better story.

Number 2? I don't think I'd put Tetris at number 2. Did that for the old people, I think. No. Again, it was one of them game changers.

Like, Minecraft's not on there. The most And people old video game of all time. Yeah. I I bet Beat Tetris. Minecraft's gotta be in the top 20.

Right? I try searching for it. I would assume. No? Alright.

Yeah. The Rolling Stone list's a little funky. Again, I need to go over their bad lists. People are, you know, there was the kid last year who beat Tetris for the first time, you know, 30 years later or whatever, or even longer than that, 40 years later, it's still a part of pop culture, which is kinda crazy. Minecraft at 28.

And that's is that the best selling game of all time or is it GTA 5? I think it's Minecraft. I think it's Minecraft Tetris GTA 5. Let's have a look here. Best selling video game It might actually be Tetris Minecraft GTA 5.

Best selling game Minecraft, ahead of GTA 5. And then Wii Sports at number 3. Crazy enough. PUBG, Mario Kart 8. Well, Wii Sports came with everybody's Wii, didn't it?

Yeah. It did. That doesn't that's not really fair. Right. Yeah.

They shouldn't count that. And amazed I I wouldn't think red dead would part 2 would be so high on the list, but, it's number 6, you know, if you count Wii Sports. So number 5, if you don't count Wii Sports, that's pretty good. That's pretty good. I mean, Minecraft, best selling video game of all time.

It's simple. Everybody loves it. I mean, I I don't like it. I've played it. You've barely played it, though.

I I've I've played it enough to know, like, yeah. This and you would think as somebody who likes games where you collect stuff, that I'd like it, but I don't I just couldn't get into it. I gave it many shots with the kids, and I it just wasn't my thing. Now I think it was an, you know, all these other games, you know, before your time, that was one that was just kinda after my time or something. What would you say then are the 3 of the best your 3 best video games of all time?

I gotta go Minecraft, Fortnite, and then Can I do 5? GTA 5, I think. No. Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, the first one, revolutionary. One of the biggest thing shooters out there.

I don't know if I could pick 3. I could pick 4, but I don't know about 3. I mean, red dead 2, I'd put it number 1. Best all time, you're saying? RDR All time.

RDR 2, number 1. Number 2 is, like, it's really close between GTA 5. And I I mean, I wanna say the last of us 1+2. You know, last of us 2 is better than part 1. I don't care what anybody says.

It is light years better than part 1. Part 1's a masterpiece. So I kinda count those as one game because it's one big story. Okay. Breath of the wild, I'd put in there too.

I don't know, peaches. There's so many good video games. It's really hard to say. Red Dead 2, GTA 5, the last of us 1 and 2, breath of the wild, and it it's funny because these are all newer games. You know?

I would have thought I'd go with older games. I'll wrap up the list with Earthbound. I don't I don't Super Meat Boy. Super Meat Boy. Sure.

Man, I love video games. Alright. That was a long break, everybody. Thank you for sticking with us. I'm hearing them screaming at us right now.

They need to play more music and let's talk. I know they can't call us and tell us to shut up. Right. It's kinda nice. So we'll be back.

Say it to our face. Please don't come down here and say it to our face. Leave us alone. It's been a long week. Sorry, buddy.

Did you get better sleep? A tiny bit. You know? I ended up, taking an antihistamine at, about 8:30 because I was like, alright. I'm not gonna do this again.

Knock yourself out. Going to sleep, and it still took a while, but I I didn't fall asleep at, like, 11 or midnight. You know? I I don't know what time. I'm guessing 9:30 or 10, but but that's better.

I still get that, like, 20 minute power nap, and then I'm awake for hours. See, thankfully, power naps don't work for me if I take a nap. That's not supposed to be a power nap. It was just supposed to be bed. Oh, okay.

Alright. Yeah. See, I don't have that problem. If I do get to sleep, then I'm out as evidenced by that one day a couple weeks ago. But, yeah, I don't know what the deal's been.

It's not like I'm stressed out or something. Well, you should be. Why? Because you need to be stressed out. No, dude.

You had to, you know, take a deep breath and take it easy. 40 year old man. What's life without stress? It's great. No.

I still have stress, but, I've learned some coping mechanisms over the years. You know, sometimes you gotta go talk to some people and learn some coping mechanisms. Thing to do. Yeah. If you're struggling that way, you don't freak out, man.

Yeah. There's help out there. Everybody there's help out there. You know, nothing to be ashamed of it's manly to get help. All right.

Cause then you can keep yourself together. You don't fall apart. So, yeah, today is so far a much better day. I didn't have to delete the first hour of my show because it was a just disaster. Should have anyway.

No. It was it was pretty it was pretty alright. It was pretty alright today. Yeah. Just been, you know, talking about nice, cheery things like good video games and LA burning to the ground.

No. I was just checking the map on that. I'm like, yep. Because I'm pretty sure a couple people I know that are don't have homes anymore Yeah. Which is devastating.

It it's terrible, dude. You know, we know a lot of people in the industry too, and, a lot of people that have had to evacuate, a lot of, you know, people I've seen that have friends that have lost their homes that are they have no idea if their home's still there. And that's why earlier, I just encouraged people to not be turds in comment sections. That's It's messed up. I guarantee there are people around here who have friends and family affected by this.

And when I see people doing the laugh react, you know, it's what you get for being liberal. You know, it's like your house. That's what I would do. Well, okay. Jade's house.

And he you know, he just lost everything. Well, that's only between me and you. Yeah, dude. I mean butts. Exactly.

We can make fun of each other because we know what each other can take, which is a lot from each other. Or what we need sometimes. I think as as far as putting up with somebody, I you've put up with about the most crap for me that anybody else has. For the most part, shame. Shame.

So, yeah, I I I hope that everybody's friends and family are doing okay and, you know, just try to have a little empathy for people. You know, just because these are, you know, fancy houses and things in some of these areas. There there's people's apartments burning down. K? Just normal people like us.

Alright? Be nice. So, Jade, we've got a fairly popular post rolling on the KhabAir Group here. Is it talking about my awesomeness? No.

That would not be a popular post. That'd be a, I'd go like it. Be a angry reactor. That angry react or the the laugh emoji that you were talking about earlier? Yeah.

You know, Jay Davis is good. That's hilarious. No. It's, about controversial rock and metal opinions. Mhmm.

Mine that I used to start the post was Slayer has better songs than Metallica. And Oh. I don't think so, but I'm not I'm not really a Slayer fan. I'm not really a Metallica fan either, though. See, and I'm not a huge Metallica fan, but I got thinking about, you know, okay.

This has to be a hot take, and there are Slayer songs that I like better than any Metallica song. You know, kinda overall, they both Yeah. Are great live, lots of fun. Metallica's obviously more legendary. Maybe it's just the refinement of Metallica because it's it's just more clear, I guess, and Slayer has this mushy sound to them.

Yeah. And Slayer used to be my go to for, like, alright. I'm gonna get pumped up before a show. I'd throw on that Rain and Blood album. It's 27 minutes, 10 songs, just and it it was great for getting pumped up before a show.

So, and I, you know, I don't think I ever, because I couldn't afford it, was able to get into the pit at a Metallica show. And, boy, have I had the crap beat out of me many times at a Slayer show. I've got some great memories of, pain and suffering. So what what do you got for a hot take, Jade, in the world of rock and metal? While you think about it, let me give you some of these other examples.

K. Mohawk Mikey said Nirvana has better music than the Foos, and I agreed. Oh, that was tough. I think it's a hot take. Hot take.

It's tough. It's a tough one. But I like I like more there are Nirvana songs I like better than any Foo Fighters song. Nirvana hit me at the time in life that was very crucial. Exactly.

So that has more impact for me. Mhmm. But the Foo, like, they have very well written songs as well. Oh, for sure. You know, this isn't a bash on the Foos.

Yeah. But if I had to go with 1, like, if I was gonna throw on an album Oh, yeah. It'd be Nirvana for me. Okay. Okay.

Let's see. Red Ed says poison should not be played on any rock station. I think there's a place for poison. There's a couple songs. Yeah.

There's a there's a place for do we play poison on Cannonball? I think we do. Yeah. That Oonskinny bop, whatever Oonskinny means. And we got I don't think that one's on cannibal because it's not fun.

Yeah. It's not very fun. It's not a fun song. Campbell's supposed to be fun. But shout out to Brett Michaels.

Super nice here. He is very nice. You know, anyone who says the reptilians are a great band, he's a great human being. And, what what's their guitarist? What why did his name just leave me?

Oh, from Poison? Yeah. Cece Deville? Yeah. Yeah.

He was super awesome too. I don't know if I met him. I don't know if I met him, but I've I've met Brett a couple times, and he was always great. Bike riding together, and he was a crazy person. I've again And then I got yelled at.

I was like, you allowed him on a dirt bike before he's supposed to play show? Why you break his head? Like, I'm sorry. I can't tell CC no. Yeah.

Well, no kidding. I'm gonna tell the headlining band. No. You don't do that. Don't do that.

Let's see. Okay. How about Anthrax is better than slayer according to Kenny? I would highly disagree with that. I mean, Anthrax for me is at the bottom of the big four.

That's why they played first. And I've got a grudge against Anthrax from what they played here. Really fun getting up to Ian and, be like, it's selfie time. I don't know. We ran into him in Vegas.

Me and Jade had fun taking pictures with Scott again. He was not happy. He didn't like, me and Jade's enthusiasm for the evening. We didn't even wait for him to say, okay. We just barreled in there and snapped a few photos.

That was funny. There was this anthrax had this room, you know. It was like this, some kind of suite that they were having a party at. In a part of the casino I'd never seen before. It was interesting.

And I I heard It's like a bunker. I heard that there was a a record rep who, like, passed out at the at the anthrax party and, like, puked all over the couch or the bed or something. That's a bad day. That is a bad day. Oh, Aaron says queen is overrated and played too much.

I I don't know how you could say queen's overrated. Some of their songs do suck. Some songs do. But the others are way better than anything that'll be written in a lot of other music. Well, and if if you ever if you haven't done so, throw on a Queen album because they're one of those bands I tend to have only heard their radio hits, but I've thrown on an album here and there, and they've got some surprisingly really good, like, deep cuts.

Yeah. Yeah. And some really bad ones. And some really bad ones. But I don't know if I could call them overrated.

Let's see. There hasn't been a good band against politics. I don't know if I'd call these guys against politics. Might maybe. Since Rage Against the Machine.

I System of a Down is a very political band, and I think they're good. That's the same time frame as Rage, though. Now they were later. They were later. That was like late nineties.

Rage was early nineties. Mhmm. So, you know, they were since Rage Against the Machine. Well, what's What about Stray From the Path? You know, they're not big but they're good.

Yeah. Yeah. How about the little country guy that came out? The little country guy that came out. That's not a hit.

He won't ever do anything. The TikTok country guy, what was his name? Oh. Oh. Oh.

What what what why can't I think of that guy's name? I can't even think of a song now. The the There's something about North of Virginia. Yeah. What does that guy's why can't we remember that guy's name?

We've talked about him more. That was that was decent. That was political, and it was definitely popular. That's gonna drive me crazy. What's that stupid guy's name?

It's it's, like, Richmond, north of Richmond, Oliver Anthony. There we go. Jeez. Like, not necessarily my bag, but it was well written and well received. I would say that would be And I liked that, he puts this song out and, you know, one side of politics was immediate to embrace it.

And then he was in the news like, hey. I'm talking about you. So I turned around on him. I'm like, alright. Because I only saw the one side sharing the story.

I'm like, I had another one of these Aaron Lewis guys. And then he went right out and was just like, no. I'm I'm talking about you. Like, alright. He he's alright.

That was partly why I was like, that guy was alright. Yeah. What else do we got? Well, actually, we gotta take a break is what we gotta do. So alright.

We'll give you a little time if you wanna call in. Oh, yeah. You can call in. You can call in. You can you got a cell phone.

I can call from my office because the internal office network still works. That's right. But can you call the hotline? I haven't tried. I that's a good question because they are sort of connected.

Yeah. Well, if you think of a hot take, we'd like Jay Davis' hot take. And you listeners, keep posting yours in the k barrel 101 Idaho Rocket Metal Group on Facebook. We'll be back. 9 inch nails and closer.

If you're my age, which, you know, contrary to what Jade might say, I'm not that old. Let's say forties the new 30 or something. But anyway, if you remember when that music video came out, holy cow. It was mind blowing. I I don't know how old I was.

I don't remember, but I saw that video and was like, wow. This is insane. And fell in love with 9 inch anneos. Which all should do if you haven't dug into their catalog. What are you doing?

Come on. Pull up the downward spiral. Listen to it start to finish. Listen to the fragile start to finish. Both albums, 10 out of 10 masterpieces.

Alright. What's going on here? Just scroll my Facebook feed. I I talked about this earlier probably multiple times today, but the amount of just negativity and unnecessary hate that I'm seeing today is is pretty disappointing. I guarantee, like, Jaden and I talked about, everybody around here.

Not everybody, maybe. But a lot of people around here have family and friends that might be affected by these fires in LA. Don't be a jerk. K? Post after post.

You go into the comments and there's people, you know, screw these celebrities. They got, you know, plenty of money. It's not just celebrities that are that are suffering. And even if you're a celebrity, imagine losing everything you own. All of those sentimental things, you know, from your kids and from, you know, relatives and whatever is important to you.

All of those things you've got at your house that are just so important to you. Imagine it's just all gone. Have a little sympathy for people. And then you're not being helpful by spreading conspiracy theories either. I don't know how many posts I've seen.

Well, it's all the people who are gonna benefit from this who are starting these fires. Please, go take some kind of a, science class or something. Alright? Energy weapons. Give me a break, people.

K? Settle down. Just so because you saw it on the Alex Jones show doesn't mean it's reality. And, actually, if you saw it there, it probably isn't. K?

Didn't he yank that guy off the, off of his, you know, platform? Didn't it get bought out by the onion? Seems like I still see his big dumb head popping up spreading propaganda. Anyway I I just heard you scream Alex Jones from the Cannonball Studios. Like, okay.

Victor's on something right now. Nah. Just read more conspiracy theories online and, you know, why would someone tune in to that kind of show and just accept it as reality? I I just don't understand why people don't fact check information. Before he was, like, the weird uncle that you'd enjoyed you enjoyed watching because he was so outlandish and now you're, like, okay.

He's going a little too far. Well, and the problem is that people, like, believe it and they don't look at they're, like, well, he predicted blah blah blah. All he does is predict things. Well, everybody has that one wacko in their family. Right?

Yeah. He he throws out so many predictions. The guy that he was Every once in a while, one of those predictions will happen and then, you know, that's all everybody that likes and focuses on. Wasn't there some, like, old blind lady that was talking about her predictions for this year too? Talking about how we'll we'll meet with the aliens and stuff?

Yeah. There's been plenty of recent Nostradamus. No. It was just it was like an older blind lady that's like, I can see It's just about showing people reality. You know, if you don't wanna accept reality, that's fine.

You can put your head in the sand and believe whatever you want. But facts should not be something that is is an argument. K? Peaches, have you ever heard of gravity? No.

K. Name three songs. I mean, I guess there are people who think the world is flat too, but I just wish people knew how to do actual research. Watching a YouTube video is not doing research. Okay.

Reading Facebook comments and Twitter posts is not research. I I call moist critical, very reliable when it comes. Yeah. Sadly, even watching the news anymore, that's not doing research. What you gotta do is go to the story links that the news, you know, originally got the story from before they shaped it to fit their audience and read the whole story.

But there's plenty of people who think that the, you know, originators of stories are propagandists too, so I don't know. It's just exhausting. Just exhausting. Yeah. The Internet sucks now.

And it's it's not helpful to people who are dealing with this stuff to throw conspiracy theories at them. Right. You know? Nobody wants to be sitting around after their house burnt to the ground being well, you know who did it? The government with their energy weapon.

Like, you're you're not helping these people. Okay? You're not helping anything. Send a dollar or something. Do something.

Well, if you were a billionaire in charge, wouldn't you mess with people? Wouldn't you build like with some giant gun or something like that as a joke? As I'm I'm I'm messing. Yeah. No.

Like, wouldn't you, like, start building a bunker? You'd be, like, I'm I'm preparing. And they're, like, what what are you preparing for? Nothing? I just wanted to make a bunker.

And then you just come out like Zuckerberg and deny it's a bunker? Right. Yeah. It's not a bunker. It's a basement.

Yeah. It's 6 levels underground. So just a big basement. Right. It's awesome.

It's the Victor World Show with peaches. And, hold on. What happened there? It just didn't stop. Oh.

And Note to Jade, buttons aren't working. Add that to the list. The the the never ending list, Jade. Hey, Jade. Jade's broken.

Come on, Jade. Fix it. Jade's sabotaging traffic school. Yeah. He he didn't want me to be able to take calls.

Right. It's all his fault. Phone lines are probably gonna be down through Monday, everybody. Just a heads up. So for traffic school tomorrow, what I'm gonna do is go live on, Facebook.

If I have enough time to set it up, maybe I'll I'll do Facebook and YouTube, and I'll, you know, try to multistream, but at least on Facebook so you can post your questions there. I'm gonna go make a thread for today to build up a pile of questions, but we'll we'll do live video on it. Help you out with that. I can send you some stuff. Sure.

Sure. Yeah. Just post it in the old thread. We'll we'll make that nice spot for those questions. Don't forget we also have the, KBear 1 on 1 Discord where you can also put your traffic school questions too.

Yeah. I never open that because it, you know, causes me problems trying to deal with OBS. So I just always shut it down immediately. You're right. Yeah.

It's been messing with the cameras. Yeah. And I'll or I'll hear a weird ding out of nowhere. The notification problem. Right.

So I mean, you can use the Discord, but if you actually want me to get your message, I would not do that. I would email me or shoot me a Facebook message or an Instagram message or, whatever met probably those 2. Gee. Wouldn't it be great if we had a text line? It would be great, but it wouldn't work right now, peaches, because our phones don't work.

So we'd be out of commission on that too. So we're back to the old days. You send us an email, people. Victor at k Bear. Sorry.

Well, that one does work. Victor at k Bear caught up in, but Victor at Riverbendmediagroup.com. Longest email ever? It's pretty long. It's pretty long, but it's easy to remember.

Riverbendmediagroup.com, and my name is spelled with a k. Yeah. They put my first name too on mine, and it's Brenden, b r e n d e n. Even that one guy that made a post about me completely butchered my name. He put, like, Branden.

Branden. Which I I don't think I've met a Branden. I don't know if I've met a Branden. You know, plenty of Branduns. Right.

Yeah. But not an n. Anyway, everybody, tomorrow traffic school, looking like it's gonna be based online as far as getting our content goes. So, if you have any questions that come right to mind, I'm gonna make that post here in a second. Otherwise, it would be even more fun if you join us on the live video stream and ask your questions in real time.

So, we're gonna get out of here at Peaches, and I'll be back at noon for the noon hour of madness and mayhem powered by Jalisco's. And now we'll play the bloody wood and babymetal song, back off. Thank you again for tuning in to the Victor Wilt Show. This program is a production of Riverbend Media Group. To contact the show or for more information, hit us up at riverbendmediagroup.com.
