The Viktor Wilt Show

Morning, everybody. Welcome to the Victor Wilt Show, Tuesday edition. It's cold outside. Ugh, hate it. Just hate it. What do we got for the upcoming weather forecast? Sorry to those listening from outside the area, I just gotta find out, you know? You're probably living somewhere where it's all nice. Around here, right now, about, uh, 29 degrees. Yeah, great. But

it's, uh, you know, gonna get a little bit nicer today. Should get up to about 53. I shouldn't complain, [laughs] not yet. I'll be begging for the day when we get a high of 29 one of these days here soon. Yeah, what do- what do we got for the, uh, 10-day forecast in the region? [sighs] Uh. Well, hopefully I can get some stuff done around the house in the next few days, 'cause the weekend's gonna su- No! No! Uh, I don't, I don't like what I'm seeing for Monday.

Yuck. Okay, I won't even say what it is. You can guess. All right, let's just close that tab, put my head in the sand. You know, nothing better than putting your head in the sand and pretending everything's fine. [laughs] All right, um, I was reading this post [laughs] and all right, this might make you feel a little bit better about your neighbors. Glad I've got good neighbors who wouldn't do this kinda crap. All right, this person said, "Today, I walked outside and found my yard littered with pieces of fried chicken. Not just a little, there were drumsticks, wings, even some mystery parts all over the grass. Turns out, my neighbor decided the squirrels in the area were craving some fast food and thought tossing a bunch of chicken across my yard was the way to do it. So, I asked her if she could pick it up and keep the trash in her yard if she wants to feed the squirrels. She got mad, called me nosy, and just generally acted like I was the one being weird. Honestly, I don't get it. Squirrels and fried food? I didn't think that was a thing. Honestly, I think she just caught littering and was just upset about it. Uh, am I a jerk for asking her to clean it up?" [laughs] No. If somebody chucked fried chicken all over your yard, get over and clean this crap up, okay? And should squirrels eat fried chicken? I don't, I don't think they should. I know we've had those stories pop up about squirrels turning into carnivores in other states, but, uh, squirrels, I believe, have a vegetarian diet. Let's see. Squirrels eating meat.

Okay, it says, "Yes, they do, but their primary diet is food like nuts, seeds, and fruits. The same crap you feed birds." Let's see, squirrels eating fried chicken. "Can squirrels eat fried chicken? No, squirrels should not eat fried chicken because it is unhealthy for them, even they [laughs], even though they may be seen eating it." Yeah, they're scavengers, right?

Especially at this time of year, they're gathering things up, stashing it up in their nest. Yeah, you don't wanna have, you know, a fat squirrel... It says it can give 'em a little stomach ache, too, little bit of stomach discomfort. You don't wanna hurt the little squirrel's belly. Don't feed it fried chicken. Get outta here. Yeah, try to avoid throwing crap in your neighbor's yard, okay? [laughs] Got enough crap in my yard as it is, [laughs] about, uh, the addition of fried chicken everywhere. Ugh, some people. Okay,

we're on a roll here. 6:45 AM, too dang early, but we'll get through this Tuesday together. We'll power through. All right, another story of animals fighting back against people. I love these.

I mean, if you're a long-time listener, you know every time an animal-fighting-back-against-people story comes up, I talk about it. And I think it was last year that I first talked about sea otters, uh, hijacking surfboards in Santa Cruz, California. Oh, this article says two years ago was the last time [laughs] this was, uh, documented. And they're not sure if it's the same otter, one that was named Otter 841, but we got multiple otters or, well, multiple incidents of otters hijacking, uh, surfboards, biting surfers. Have you ever watched videos or seen the aftermath of an otter attacking somebody? It's pretty hardcore. There are videos on YouTube showing otters attacking people. You wanna know why I don't go in the river? Well, one, the undertow, it's very dangerous. You shouldn't swim in the river, okay? Please don't. But two, there's, there's river otters in there. I've seen 'em, all right? And once you've seen a video of an otter just tearing somebody up, it's like, "Ah, okay, no thank you." Natural waters are dangerous. But yeah, this, uh, 21-year-old college student, Isabella Orduno, was just catching some waves and, you know, she, uh, fell off her surfboard. She gets up and

there's this just big, huge, fat otter sitting on her surfboard. And she's like, "Well, wh- what do I do? What am I supposed to..." Get away. That's when you're supposed to just give it the surfboard and run. I guarantee if you try to fight, you're, you're in the water. All you got is your hands. Try to fight a sea otter, yeah, i- it ain't gonna go your way. Now, it did bite her, but not very bad. It was more just like, you know, "No, y- you're not getting your surfboard back. Get your hands off of here." So.[rock music plays] ... she tried tipping the board over, and like, "You get," but it refused to budge. So people on the beach see this going on and they call 9-1-1 and, uh,

this guy Ben Coffey, a marine safety officer for the Santa Cruz Fire Department, he helped her back to shore and then, uh, I guess paddled out on his own surfboard. He has to fight with the otter but it finally gave up the surfboard. Um,

I don't wanna say I wanna see otters attacking people on surfboards 'cause I don't wanna see people get hurt, but I think we're learning animals are getting fed up with people.

And, uh, even though you're just out surfing, trying to have a good time, you're in their space. You entered their territory. If you get attacked by a sea otter, not gonna have a lot of sympathy for you 'cause

you made the choice to go into a dangerous place. And I know a lot of people are like, "Oh, no, the ocean, it's, it's for all of us." Hmm, no. You, you couldn't live in it. Okay? [laughs] It, it's, it's not your environment, it's unnatural, and there m- there's monsters in there, all right? It's like when people get attacked by sharks, stung by jellyfish, "Oh, I can't believe this happened to me!" You were in the water, what are you talking about? So she's fine. She's fine. But yeah, we gotta keep our eyes out. Uh, see if we get, get any more of this going on 'cause, uh,

surfing in Santa Cruz might be on the way out.

All right. 7:00, I like it. Really hoping today goes by fast. I wanna g- I wanna go home! Ah! Uh, but I'm gonna have fun on the show today, I swear. [rock music plays] All right, we got more animals fighting back against people and this one shouldn't really be surprising. Well, I mean, somebody getting attacked by an otter in the ocean or a shark shouldn't be surprising either. Again, that's their environment, you enter into it, you're taking a risk. But okay, people who keep tigers caged up,

y- you might get killed by a tiger, all right? If you haven't watched Tiger King, people got hurt by tigers in that show and, well, uh, this Oklahoma trainer who, according to this article, got his tigers from Tiger King, Joe Exotic, uh, sadly was killed by a tiger just the other day. Um, you know, I've been to zoos where animals are properly taken care of, they have an environment that, you know, is suitable for them and people who are trained properly to deal with them. But there are other situations where you got people who, yeah, they just aren't r- really at, ready for the job. You remember Ligertown? Some of you younger folks might not remember Ligertown but that was in, uh, Lava Hot Springs

and, uh, the AI overview on Google, which you know I hate because it, it can be inaccurate, I like its description of Ligertown, "A notorious ramshackle compound in Eastern Idaho that housed exotic big cats and was the source of significant public concern and media attention when in 1995 several lions escaped," and, uh, yep, i- it was chaos as you had lion and tiger hybrids running amok in Lava Hot Springs. I, I do believe they managed to, uh, track 'em all down. And then sadly they had to, you know, I think, uh, shoot like 18 of the animals. So there are documentaries on YouTube about Ligertown. L- leave the, leave these wild animals to the professionals, okay? And, uh, I've, I've seen a variety of places where it's like, you guys shouldn't have these animals. All right? This is not appropriate. Not gonna throw any places under the bus. But, I don't know, even, I've even been to bad zoos. Okay? Bad zoos.

Uh, uh, thankfully I think we got pretty good ones around here,

for the most part. And anyway, just, just because you can get a wild animal doesn't mean you should. Okay? Especially a giant cat. You know? Or like a, a chimpanzee or a bear. Uh, if you haven't watched Chimp Crazy

or Grizzly Man,

wild animals will rip you to pieces, they just will. They'll kill people. All right? They'll rip off your face. So, uh, yeah, again,

uh, rest in peace to this guy but, I mean, there have been a bunch of attacks by tigers in these kinda situations over the years. You know, th- this is fairly common in these type of facilities. [rock music plays] Okay, I want everybody to bust out a piece of paper or your phone, your notepad, write down this website address. That would be Snopes, S-N-O-P-E-S.com.[rock music plays] A- again, snopes.com. I think we could clean up a lot of social media if prior to making posts and sharing things on social media, you went to Snopes to verify whether or not what you're sharing is real. All right? Now, there are lots of other ways to determine whether or not something is real. You can go to Google, google.com, but Snopes is all about just breaking down all the most popular things making the rounds that may or may not be true. And, uh, the current thing that people are fighting about most on social media, of course, politics. And namely the, uh, the protests that took place over the weekend. And my Facebook feed has been just pummeled by all of these images saying that MSNBC,

uh, aired false footage showing a, you know, a crowd in Boston,

and that, uh, th- this imagery was from some other kind of, uh, protest or rally [laughs] from years ago. And everybody's sharing it saying, "We need to crush and destroy MSNBC for their lies. They aired false footage. They're trying to brainwash the public." No, it, it was real, okay? The end. All right? That [laughs] was real footage. I- it can easily be verified by a little bit of looking around online. You know, just because

y- you, you don't like it or whatever doesn't mean

you should share that information, okay? Uh, and this again goes for both sides. If you go to snopes.com, they break down everything, okay? This website's been around for years because the internet has been filled with a bunch of misinformation [laughs] for years, but I think right now it's kinda worse than ever. So, I just want to encourage you to look at these kinda things before you share them 'cause, yeah, that footage that so many people on my social media page are saying was, uh, fake and people are getting all riled up about it, getting mad at the news, uh, no, it, it's real. Okay? The end. It's real. You can choose to accept reality or not. But again, snopes.com, they break down the misinformation from both sides because both sides are guilty of putting out information that is not correct. I see it happen all the time. So, please, note that website, snopes.com, and just go check it out

'cause you, you, you, you don't want to clog up the social media feed with a bunch of garbage that's not true. All right? Society is getting dumber by the day and false information [laughs] is pretty much why. And also, it gets people fighting with one another for no reason. We should be able to have discussions about things, but conversation's just out the door now. You know, people just dig in their heels, put their heads in the sand, and just accept whatever, you know, th- their side's saying. You can't do that, okay? You gotta look into these things. So, I, I picked that one out because it is just everywhere. It's just everywhere. But there are a, tons of other pieces of false information making the rounds from both sides of the political aisle all the time, and I'm, I'm sick of people not just taking a look to see if something's real before they share it. You know, if somebody walked up to you and was like, I don't know, "Uh, the sky is red," are you just gonna go, "Sure"? No, you open up the window and look. You don't just jump on social media and, "Hey, did you hear the sky's r- red now?" [laughs] I don't know. I don't know why people have just decided to accept anything that's thrown their way. All right, got it out of my system. Snopes.com, everybody. You know, giving 'em a plug. And I got Freak News coming up here in a few. [rock music plays] All right, as we all know, groceries have gotten to be very expensive, uh, if you haven't been in the store recently.

It's probably a good thing. [laughs] I used to love grocery shopping. I don't know, I'd go by myself. It... You know, depending on the time of day you go, could be relaxing. Now I just look at the shelves and I'm like, "What? Gotta be kidding me." Um, but I'm not gonna, you know, just run off with about 315 pounds of hamburger

and sausage meat and, you know, some pies and

a 36-count box of hot dogs and 24 packs of bacon, 24 loaves of bread. Couple guys in Arizona, uh, well, that's what they did [laughs]. Yeah, robbed the Union City Help Center's freezer. That's a place that's helping people in need. Come on, guys. If you're gonna steal a bunch of food, hit one of the major corporations. No, I'm just kidding. Don't steal, people. Don't steal. But yeah, that's quite the, uh, the heist. I mean, 315 pounds of hamburger. That's a lot of money a hamburger nowadays. What's it running, like 10 bucks a pound? I know the last time I wanted to get some, you know, pre-made burger patties, I was like, "Uh, nope." [laughs] "Nope. I guess we're gonna have to shape those ourselves." Yeah, they're in jail for a long time. That's, uh, that's gotta be grand theft. Just the burger. All right, what else do we got here? Don't drink homemade alcohol. Now, apparently, homemade alcohol, not uncommon in Russia. But again, you know, everything's gotten to be real expensive, so apparently, the, uh, the-[heavy metal music] Homemade liquor business is booming in Russia, and in this month alone, at least 19 people have died from tainted liquor. So,

I mean, you should probably avoid drinking liquor, anyway. Um, sorry, I'm not trying to be a party pooper, but, yeah, catches up with you, [people screaming] that dang booze. [laughs] Somebody's slinging some out of the back of their car, yeah, might save a few bucks, but

you don't want to just outright just die immediately from booze, all right? I mean, hopefully, you don't die from booze, period. That- that's not good. You know, help is out there, everybody. But yeah, don't buy bootleg liquor. All right, what else do we have here? Don't shoot people because they honk at you. Now, honking can be annoying. All right? I get it. Somebody honks at me, I might get a- a tinge of irritation, but I'm not gonna bust out the handgun [laughs] like this woman in India- Indianapolis did. Yeah, a guy honked at her for not driving through a green light fast enough, so she- uh, yeah, she just blasted him down. He dead. Um, that seems like an unreasonable response to a- a horn honking. Yeah, d- don't do that, please. Okay? I'm- I'm sure that person had a family. [heavy metal music] Just take a deep breath. Geez, everybody always so quick to jump to lashing out, you know? I make one dumb Facebook post, and you wouldn't believe some of the comments I get sometimes. [laughs] Like, whoa, dude. Settle down a little bit here. Everything's gonna be okay.

At least people can't, you know, shoot you through Facebook yet. Ugh.

And then warn your old people about scammers. If you get a phone call or a message telling you to take all of your money out of the bank, turn it into gold bars, and then go meet someone who will, uh, like, keep it for you, don't do that. Okay? Um... [laughs] [dramatic music] Like, or go down to your bank and be like, "Hey, I got a call saying, you know, my account had been compromised, and I needed to take all my money out and turn it into gold, and then go meet somebody in a dark alley and give it to them."

Don't do that, okay? Uh, well, I mean, go to your bank, and I'm sure they'll tell you to, you know, avoid doing that. Um,

let's see. Which state was this? South Carolina.

In South Carolina alone this year,

old people have been duped out of nearly $10 million with this withdraw your life savings and turn it into gold [laughs] scam here. Uh, the guy who, one of the guys who, uh, got duped said, "This would be like a spy novel. If somebody were writing a spy novel, it'd be the perfect storyline." No, no, it wouldn't, 'cause people wouldn't believe it. But it... They should, 'cause it happens all the time. [laughs] Ugh. Yeah, talk to your old people. Okay? Don't click on unsolicited pop-ups or text messages or email links. Don't give people access to your computer. Don't download software. It's like, "Oh, your computer's compromised. Download this software." Don't meet up with strange people and give them, you know, bags of cash or gold bars.

Ugh. We talked earlier about people getting dumber all the time.

And I'm sorry if you know someone who's been duped by a scam like this and I just called them dumb. It's- it- it's an education problem, I think, and we need to get the word out to our old people. Okay? I don't have anybody in my life who could be passing anything down to me, but, you know, if- say grandma had a million bucks in her bank account, you know, y- you- you'd like to help. She could be able to use that money for something good in her later years, not, you know, again, giving it to the- the guy in a trench coat at Walmart parking lot

[laughs] after she turned it into gold coins. Ugh. [dramatic music] Already after 8:00. Let's hope that Tuesday just rockets by. You know, I'm not as tired as I was yesterday, but I still- still think I might have to take a nap after work. Had a kind of crappy one yesterday, but it was better than not having one. Just shouldn't pass out in the recliner without the stupid CPAP on. Anyway, as I was scrolling Reddit, I came across a post that annoyed me. Happens a lot when I'm scrolling the internet, things annoy me. I'm sure it happens to you. So this is an advice post. You know? "Am I a jerk for not wanting to get back together or be friends anymore?" So you got this couple. You know, they dated for a really long time here. Uh, many, many years. Then they broke up. They're like, "All right. Cool. We're done." So, you know, like a year or so goes by. And let's see, she says, "Something's changed." He said, "He's fixing himself for me and our relationship and wants to try and get back together.""... 'Now, I know that some people do that and are open to dating exes, but me personally, I don't see the point. We broke up for a reason and why would we get back together as we are still the same in terms of morals and everything else when we broke up?' He's saying that opposites attract and I'm the only person he'll ever love and want to marry."

She says, uh, "I feel super uncomfortable and weird. And I also feel like i- this is disrespectful to me. He says I'm not seeing things from his point of view or giving him a chance. Very important context is I was clear about breakups being final for me. I've been like that my whole life." You see this happen often enough, all right? Sometimes when there's a breakup, one of the people maybe doesn't want to. And then down the line they're like, "Come on. Come on, let's get back together." And you can give it another shot if you want, but if you don't want to, you don't have to! All right?

You already dumped them! So, yeah, you're not obligated to, uh, hook up with somebody 'cause they wanna hook up with you. You're not obligated to be friends with somebody, period. You know? Like I- I don't think this couple says anything about, uh, having like kids or anything like that. You know, 'cause if you got kids with somebody, you're gonna have to deal with them to like a certain degree, but it should be pretty minimal and only dealing with the kids. You know? Like, you're not obligated to have to talk about your relationship problems from the past. Nope. Deal with the kid issues, move along. Keep it simple, okay?

Anyway, to... It- it just annoys me when I see people messing with people like that.

Shut up and move along and find somebody else! All right? Get it together! There's other people out there. Stop your boohooing and guilting people. Don't be a turd, k? So yeah, yeah. Again, should be able to, uh, just move along. And it might suck, but eventually it'll be okay again, k? Find a hobby! [laughs] There you go. There's a lotta... We talked about hobbies the other day. Find a hobby or a d- distraction. And leave people alone. My goodness. Nothing worse than an ex sending you messages to try to make you feel guilty, all right? It's not right and it's irritating. And nobody knows how to irritate you more than an ex.

And these people, they're in their 30s in this post here. It's like, by then you should know how to be an adult. [laughs] All right? Okay, anyway, that- that post just, I saw it. It made me, uh, frustrated. So I- I figured I'd babble about it, but I'll find something more cheery for the next break, k? All right? [instrumental music plays] [laughs] Every once in a while

I'll go to the unethical life pro tips subreddit. These are, you know, life pro tips, but that, you know, might not really be right even if [laughs] you can get a good result in the end. A lot of these I'm not gonna go over here because it feels like it's wrong to give out that kinda information, but some kind, or sometimes they're kinda funny. Like, I saw one a minute ago that said, "Don't throw birthday parties for your kids before they're old enough to remember. You'll save hundreds of dollars and can always gaslight them into believing you did throw them." Yeah, you just, like, take a picture of your kid holding the balloon when they're a baby. I mean, it's kinda true. It's like taking a baby to Disneyland, all right? There is no bigger waste of money than taking a baby to Disneyland, k? They're not gonna remember. You're not going to have fun 'cause you're dragging around a stroller. You can't go on any rides 'cause you have a baby.

Y- you can Photoshop a picture of your baby at Disneyland, sure. [laughs]

Just doing some unethical life pro tips, Peaches. This one was about not throwing... W- yeah, you're on that mic. Mic three.

The other one's on.

Oh, I- I'm- I'm, like, losing my mind here. I thought I had turned it on.

I didn't wanna interrupt the break, that's why I was pointing at mic three.

I know and I'm like, "It's w- talk into it, what do you do?" [laughs]

[laughs] I don't know what to do.

Yeah, um, how old were you the first time you went to Disneyland? 'Cause you lived in California.

I- I'm too young.

Too young to-

Too young to remember.

You don't remember?

Yeah.

What a waste of money by your parents!

It's also a giant waste of money if you throw your one-year-old a birthday party.

That's-

They're not gonna remember that

... that's what I was just talking about.

Yeah.

That was the unethical life pro tip, don't throw your, uh, baby's birthday parties 'cause they're not going to remember it.

We watched the, uh, my sister's old, like, one-year-old birthday party video and sure enough, there's tons of people there that are there for the parents and not necessarily the kid and...

Yeah, and like... [laughs] I don't know, I'm sure it's helpful to the parents to get things like clothes and stuff-

That's what they do it for-

... but-

... is for themselves.

I- i- yeah. Yeah, exactly, but you gotta spend a lotta money. You gotta get cake and food and decorations.

All for that dumb kid just to-

All for that stupid baby! [laughs]

[laughs] Just- just- j- just hit the cake with his hands and go, "Aah!" You know?

[laughs]

The whole time.

Yeah, dude, ev- every time I've been to, um, an amusement park and I see somebody dragging a baby around... I mean, if they have other kids and you have to bring the baby, okay. But there are people that just bring their baby. I'm like, "Wh-[laughs] Why don't you just take that money and light it on fire? You know? [laughs] It's such a waste.

But then they go, "I didn't do this as a kid, so I'm having my kid do it for me."

I don't know.

"I'm looking through 'em."

S- some people, man.

They're too short to go in the teacups. [laughs]

It's like, you could save that money and do something great for your kid later on, rather than just [stutters] throwing it in the garbage. You know? Some people are dumb.

Oh, man. I talked about those dumb-

Sorry to anybody who's taken their baby [laughs] to Disneyland.

[laughs]

[laughs]

I talked about those dumb, uh, grandma parties that people are having.

Grandma parties?

People are like, "Oh, they're celebrating the grandma becoming a grandma." Or th- they're celebrating, you know, the, the one becoming the grandma in the family.

Okay.

Just an excuse to have a party. It's quite dumb. Like-

Yeah, Grandma's got a birthday.

There's the baby shower, and then the grandma's like, "But I'm a part of this too. I need presents as well."

What? What kinda grandma is that way? Grandma's supposed to spoil the grandkids.

Yeah. You have a lot of money. You paid three straw pennies for your, for your house.

That's right, boomer grandmas.

Yeah. [laughs]

What are you do- ... Uh, kinda crazy though. I know people my age that are grandparents. It can happen. It could happen to me.

Pretty soon, pretty soon you will be.

No!

[laughs]

No. My kids better be being very cautious.

Oh, Grandpa Victor.

I am not old enough to be a grandpa, and I don't have enough money to spoil the grandkids.

I mean, we aren't old enough to be a dad either, but look at that. [laughs]

I know. And-

You did it, you did it well.

I, uh, uh, uh. The kids turned out good. [laughs] I don't know if I-

It's forced maturity. That's what it is.

[laughs] I don't know if it forced maturity either. And I don't know if I did it well, but they turned out okay. They're better than I was.

They're great kids. What are you talking about?

They, they are. They are, somehow.

But Victor still always says-

[laughs]

... he likes one more than the other. [laughs]

Oh, don't start with that again, Peaches. Don't start with that again.

I just heard you s- yell about the whole Disneyland thing, so that's why I was like, "I need to come join in on this and hate on babies too." [laughs]

I just figured you being in California, there's a very good chance you got taken to Disneyland way too young. And what a waste of money. C- wouldn't you rather your parents give you those hundreds of dollars right now, just hand it to you?

Oh, sure.

Yeah. Like, "Hey, we could've taken you to Disneyland as a kid, but we realized, 'Oh, that's a big waste of money.' You know? So we put it in your college fund.'" Or, you know, or, "Here, Peaches. Go buy yourself a, a, I don't know, a PlayStation 5."

We invested in iVideo for you, and now you have $3,000. [laughs]

Exactly. Yeah. We put it in the stock market instead of throwing it in the garbage. [laughs] Ugh. Anyway, um

...

You good?

Put an empty bowl at your door with a note saying, "Take as many as you want for Halloween." It's another unethical life pro tip. [laughs] Oh, the candy's all gone.

Yeah. But then you get that Ring camera footage of that one kid who just takes all the candy and looks right in the camera and runs away.

No, you put, you put an empty bowl to begin with.

Oh, an empty bowl.

You know, you just start with an empty bowl. And someone'll think some kid just ran off with the whole bowl. And you don't have to s- ... Candy is ... Oh my gosh. I was at, uh, WinCo the other day, and I saw some of the prices of ... And th- this is at WinCo. I cannot believe what they're charging for Halloween candy.

Just put potatoes in a bowl and see what happens.

[laughs] Potatoes are probably still a decent value, right? It's like one of the only things left that's cheap.

And we're in Idaho, of course.

That's, that's why they're cheap.

Yeah.

And we get all the crappy potatoes here too. They ship the really big, awesome Idaho potatoes out to all the other states, and then they charge, you know, crazy amounts of money for 'em. We get the, you know, the leftovers. It's a bunch of garbage.

[laughs]

[laughs] You gotta know a farmer. [rock music plays] All right, this is, uh, perfect for the Halloween season. Maybe you're trying to figure out a fun, you know, family vacation

for spring, spring or summer of next year. [eerie music plays] Well, for the first time in history, overnight bookings now available

at the Warren House and Warren Occult Museum in Connecticut.

Funny enough, uh, my girlfriend and I, we were watching a YouTube video about the haunted museum where they house the Annabelle doll, you know, from The Conjuring movies, and, uh, I think it'd be pretty cool to go to the Warren Museum and look at all the cursed artifacts. [laughs] Um, yeah, apparently, uh, comedian Matt Rife bought the house and the museum, just bought everything, guy must be doing pretty well, and decided, all right, we're gonna Airbnb it up for a bit. And they've got their final 90 nights going on sale October 29th, so you can book from May 19th through August 23rd. And, uh, after that, I guess they're gonna be opening a new permanent museum in a public location where all the items are gonna live. But if you wanna go stay at the actual Warren House, you can book it out, but you, you, you're gonna have to spend a little bit of money. You know, it took me a bit to find on the page, you know, the price per night. And it doesn't matter if you book one person or up to eight people, so you can get together, like I said, your whole family. Well, eight people anyhow. And if you wanna drop like two grand, well, you can stay.

And they're throwing in all kinds of stuff. You know, you, you get to stay, but you get to check out the largest collection of ghost hunting equipment in existence and use it, so you can do paranormal research. And yes, check out the most infamous haunted items in the world, including the Annabelle doll, which, you know, we talked about the Annabelle doll a while back.They had taken it out on tour, a bunch of weird stuff started happening. Like this, uh, plantation in Louisiana burnt to the ground, when Annabelle was in Louisiana. Bunch of prisoners escaped as well. Annabelle just

raising a ruckus, and then one of the guys involved with the tour, he just dropped dead in his hotel room. Mm-hmm, creepy. So yeah, you get private access of the entire home. 5:30 PM check in and a 1:30 PM checkout, so get to sleep in a bit. They give you four hours of access to the museum room with all the cursed items under supervision from experienced staff, 'cause you gotta wear, like, the, m- you know, magic gloves and stuff if you wanna, like, touch things. And all rules and guidelines must, must be followed, but yeah, then they got your, your bedroom, which includes, you know, your bedding, towels, bathroom essentials, drinks and snacks. Uh, they got holy water, you know, so you can try to keep yourself from g- getting cursed by the, uh, cursed objects. So, if you want to book this, you go to hauntedwarrenhouse.com

and yeah, like I said, uh, it ain't cheap. If you stay Sunday through Thursday for one night, $2,000. And if you want to do, uh, Friday or Saturday, 2,300 bucks. And, uh, non-transferable, yeah. Is it all sales final? I, I don't know. But anyway, this is your final chance

to stay at the Warren House overnight. Ooh, now you're gonna have to get yourself to Connecticut as well. [wind blowing] Um, on sale October 29th at 1:00 PM Eastern Time, so that'd be, uh, 11:00 AM our time.

Yeah, I know we've got some people into haunted stuff that, uh, listen to the show from time to time. Like Leon from Spiders Web Tattoo, he was out at, uh, the, the Museum of Idaho's haunted tour the other night. I was like, "Dude, I wanna go. I wanna go on the haunted tour." You know, th- this is probably out of my budget here, the, uh, haunted Warren house, but any, uh, rich listeners want to send me to Connecticut? I'll, I'll, I'll film. I, I hopefully won't come back cursed. I'd go. Just figured I'd let you know. I know we've got a few people into that kind of stuff that listen, so

hauntedwarrenhouse.com. Let me know if you made the trip. Make sure to post in the KBear101 Idaho Rock and Metal Group, 'cause, uh, w- you know, we wanna see you hanging out with the, uh, the creepy cursed objects. All right, back in a minute. [rock music] Now, did they ever end up putting out an album, Tenacious D? Have I been living in a cave? I know they put out that song and then they did... Well, I think it was just Jack Black doing some songs for, like, the Minecraft movie. Then I saw, you know, he's gonna be in the upcoming Anaconda remake, which looks like it's gonna be really funny. [laughs] You know, kind of, uh, you know, taking it outside of a... Well, was that ever a serious horror movie? Taking it out of that realm and, uh, you know, going the, uh, horror-comedy route. I'm pretty stoked to check that out, but yeah, I don't, I don't know if Tenacious D did recently, uh, release an album. Hmm.

I don't know, I'm, I'm excited for when they do, and that's another band I have gotta see live. I've never seen Tenacious D live, even though some of their, you know, live concert videos that I've got on DVD are some of my all-time favorite live performances. Yeah, I guess the last time they dropped an album, 2018, Post Apocalypto, which it, it had a few good songs. It wasn't too bad. It was for this, uh, weird cartoon series that they made, which, if you haven't seen it, I'd say it's worth, uh, checking out. But yeah, yeah, not seeing any information here about, uh, any upcoming new music, so bummer! Bummer, that sucks. Well,

I guess you can always go back and just rewatch Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny, one of my all-time favorite movies. I think I'm overdue for a rewatch of that, as a matter of fact, but got so many movies I want to see. Maybe tonight if I can stay awake sitting in my recliner and then try to watch that Eddington movie that I fell asleep in the theater watching, the latest from Ari Aster, director of Hereditary and Midsommar. Damn. Need to finish Weapons too. Need to watch about a, a million new horror movies. It's like Halloween season and I haven't been watching crap. Been very busy, been very busy.

Anyhow, I'm just babbling, just babbling.

[rock music] Well, that does it. Um, that does it for this program. A little System of a Down by request. I'm Victor Wilt and, uh, I better get some things done around here. Very grateful that it's already about 10:00 AM and the day seems to be moving at a decent pace. Hope yours is as well and I hope it goes amazing. As always, thank you for hanging out with me today, tuning in, and, uh, be back at noon with Peaches for the noon hour of madness and mayhem. Should hopefully be able to find some stupid things to talk about and make it fun. All right, let me get cracking on all the other work I gotta do around here, but that should hopefully make the day move quick. So, anyway, you're the best. Enjoy a new one from Aerosmith and Yungblud as I... Well, I'm not really heading out the door, I'm just doing other crap.
