#0251 - Aliens, Banned Books, and the Hand That Got Sewn to a Foot - 10/10/2025
Hey, what's up? It's Victor Wilt. Good morning. Welcome to the Friday edition of the program. I hope that you're doing well. Hope you're doing great.
Ready for the weekend. Hopefully, gonna spend the weekend sitting around, doing a whole lot of nothing. It's been like just endless chaos, it feels like. So, I think it's a good weekend to sit around and watch some horror movies. Ah, it's Halloween season, throw on something scary. You wanna know what the scariest movies are, according to science? Well- Now, wait a minute. I wanted 2025, not 2023.
Wh- What is this?
All these... I, I tell you, sometimes the internet. Sometimes the internet. Okay. Anyway, I've got the scariest movies, according to science, of 2025, and we're gonna count them down, and I'll let you know what I think as far as their level of scariness goes. I don't know what the problem is. I don't tend to get scared by horror movies. The only time a piece of entertainment has made me feel truly, like, uneasy, and what I would call frightened, was Resident Evil 7 VR. Yeah, Resident Evil 8 VR was, like, awesome. Not, not what I'd call scary though. Maybe, like, one little section of the game. I don't know, I really hope that the new Resident Evil, Part IX, they go back to
being pretty frightening, like Resident Evil 7. But apparently, uh, Capcom said, you know, when Resident Evil 7 came out, a lot of people thought it was too scary. So, they toned down the scariness, made it a little more action packed for Part VIII. Why do you think Resident Evil 7 was so legendary? 'Cause it scared the crap out of people. Even on a flat screen, non-VR, still pretty frightening. Okay. Anyway, back to the scariest movies. Coming in at number 10, we've got Talk To Me, which is from the director of Bring Her Back, which... Both of those movies are fantastic. Yeah, if you haven't seen Talk To Me, highly recommended. Uh, The Exorcism of Emily Rose coming in at number nine. Been many, many, many years since I've seen that, so I, I don't know. I don't recall it being super scary, but again,
uh, I'm not easily frightened. Then at eight and seven, you got Smile and Smile Two, which they, they've got some, uh, you know, some good jump scare moments, I suppose. They're both really good movies. I liked them. Hereditary at number six and I don't really think Hereditary is scary. I think it, it makes you uncomfortable. You know, it just kinda bothers some. It's probably my favorite horror movie of all time. But scary? I don't know. Coming in at number five, The Conjuring. I, I don't know, I thought that was a fun movie. I guess it has some good jumps in it. Don't recall it being that scary, but I know... You know, the movies are fun. They're good. See, they got The Descent down at number 15, and I would say The Descent is scarier than a- any of the movies on this list. I don't know, maybe it's 'cause I'm claustrophobic. There's something about being in a cave, ugh. The Descent scares me, just 'cause it... That'd be my worst nightmare, to be stuck in a cave and you can't get out, and there's, uh, like, monsters in there. Uh, coming in at number four, Insidious, which I recall seeing on one of these lists years ago, then watching and being like, "Meh." I mean, it was, it was good, but not that, uh, frightening to me. Number three, Skinamarink, which I still haven't seen. Probably need to watch that one. Number two, Host, which I'm not sure if I've seen. And then number one, always number one on these lists, the movie Sinister, which I watched. It was enjoyable enough, but I did not find it, like, scary. I don't know, again, a lot of movies, or most movies, they, th- they don't scare me, so maybe I'm the wrong person to even judge this list. But if you wanna watch something scary and good, th- this is a list of good horror movies. You can find this just by searching "Science of Scare 2025." Again, "Science of Scare 2025."
I, I'd say, ugh, I don't know. People either love or hate Hereditary, but I'd say it's a must-watch. Th- That's probably the best one on the list, as far as I'm concerned. Talk To Me is really good, too. But, uh, Bring Her Back, [claps hands] that movie was great. It's not on the list. [laughs] Oh, there it is, down at number 24. Ugh. It's kinda like Hereditary, though. Not really scary, just kinda makes you feel, like, uncomfortable. Eh. Uh, probably my favorite horror that I've seen this year, but I still need to watch, uh, Weapons, uh... There's a bunch I need to watch, as a matter of fact, so... Hopefully, this weekend, horror marathon. Just kick back and relax. All right. I'm gonna be back in a minute, okay? Hang
on. Oh, I couldn't be more pumped that it's Friday. Boy, I tell ya. My living room sounds great. Sounds so good. I mean, I've been having a lot of fun lately, but fun can get exhausting, and I know that's a major first world problem. But, you know, after tonight and the In This Moment show, we'll have hit four different concerts in the last 10 days in three different cities [laughs], and-[rock music] I'm sorry, but it does get to be a, you know, a little bit exhausting. Even though they were all awesome and they were all fun. Tonight should be great. Okay, what was I gonna talk about? [laughs] I'm just daydreaming about the weekend and just, just kicking it. Uh, far as I know, it's supposed to be gloomy and rainy. Let's take a look at the, uh, forecast for tomorrow 'cause the weatherman changes his mind all the time. Yeah, Saturday, chilly and rainy. Perfect day to just sit in the house, maybe crack the windows to let some of that nice rainy air in, watch horror movies like I talked about earlier. All right. Looking at a thread here. Aliens arrive and demand a single piece of human media to decide if we live or die. What do you hand them? Could be a fun thread. All right, when you sit back and think about it, all right, what could save us from aliens wiping us out? One piece of media. What's something that everybody loves? I, I think we're doomed [laughs]. Give them a Tool song. Tool, Rosetta Stoned. There you go. The song about alien abduction. May- maybe they wouldn't like that. Uh, how about, uh, the song we played earlier, Schism? Maybe Lateralus. I don't know, let's see what the internet's saying. Oh, they're getting Rick Rolled. [laughs] That's what the internet says.
I don't know. Everybody likes that song, right? Never gonna give you... Uh, I don't know. That is probably what would happen if this message got into the wrong hands. Somebody's Rick Rolling the aliens. All right, somebody says, "Wall-E." Haven't watched that in a long time. Almost no dialogue, shows our mistakes and our capacity for care, and ends with hope. I don't know, what if the aliens are, uh, you know, really mean? Maybe they want some death metal. Be like, "All right, you guys are cool. Thanks for hooking it up with some, some Cannibal Corpse." All right, what else we got here? Any Bob Ross episode. Hmm. [rock music] I mean, Bob Ross, everybody likes Bob Ross. Have- have you been enjoying the AI videos of Bob Ross that are making the rounds? [laughs] Where he like loses his mind, starts s- swearing and like just making, you know, crappy paintings and trashing them? I gotta, I gotta say I love all the recent AI slop that's coming out so much. It's so fun. Box set of the original Planet Earth series with Sir David Attenborough. If they could understand what he has to say, sure. I mean, I guess it would show, uh, some of the beauty of Earth, but what, it doesn't show the beauty of people, does it? I don't know, I haven't watched, uh, the original Planet Earth series, uh, that I'm aware of, or for a really long time. Complete series of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. Long as you don't give them some of those AI videos of Mister Rogers that have been making the rounds [laughs]. Uh, oh, Keeping up with the Kardashians? Yeah, there we go. We're done. We're done for. We're done.
I say hook them up with Tool. That's what I say. All right. It's after 7:00, which is fantastic. Wanna see the day just rocket by. We got a busy day ahead. Thankfully, Peaches has to handle most of the, uh, heavy lifting, interviewing. The Funeral Portrait, gonna be nice to meet those guys. They're of course playing tonight within this moment. Dayseeker and Dead.
Uh, and yeah, we got a lot going on today. Gonna be a busy but fun one. So, I'm gonna find some more crap to talk about, okay? Hang on. [rock music] What up, my people? Welcome to the Victor Wilt program. Didn't I just talk? Like, I mean, I shouldn't complain if 10 minutes have gone by in the blink of an eye, but I'm like, what was I doing? What did I do to pass the time? I have no idea [laughs]. Did I just get abducted by aliens? Is that what happened? You know, talk about aliens all of a sudden. Blam, blink, two songs have gone by. Again, I ain't complaining. Let's have this day rocket by. I want that weekend. Uh, Stewart sent me a disturbing image here. I don't know if it's true, but it looks real. It's from a Facebook page called Morbid Knowledge, which, uh, I'm going to have to open in a new tab and see what other things these guys post [laughs]. Uh, this post has a picture of a hand that has been surgically attached to a foot, and it says, "In 2013, Chinese factory worker, um, Xi Wei's severed hand was kept alive by attaching it to his ankle for a month. Though warm, it remained numb. Doctors later reattached it and, while he could twist his wrist, full finger mobility required six months of nerve recovery." Uh, so, th- they saved this guy's hand by surgically attaching it to his ankle and his hand ended up working. Y- you, you should see this picture. I can't imagine, you know, having to wa- I, y- you could walk around with a hand attached to your foot. You could tickle your own foot
from your ankle. Um
[laughs], I don't know about this, this Facebook page, Morbid Knowledge, but I don't know, I kinda like it [laughs]. Oh geez. Yeah, this, may- maybe you don't wanna look at this page. Okay? Uh, it's dark. Holy cow, it's dark. The hand attached to the foot is like the only sort of uplifting thing that I'm, I'm seeing on here at all.[laughs] [exclaims] Okay, don't, don't go look at this page. [laughs] You don't wanna see this.
Unless you wanna see the hand attach to foot, but, eh, I don't know how long ago that, uh, that post actually
was made. Stuart just sent it to me. Oh, geez. I am closing this page out. [exclaims] All right, I mean, it's appropriately named, Morbid Knowledge. Yikes! Don't look at that if you wanna have a cheery day, 'kay? [laughs] [sighs] Well, I'm glad they didn't have, like, graphic imagery, but, geez, I was trying to just, while I babbled on, read some of the posts, find something fun to share with you. That wasn't happening. Yikes! All right. Well, I'm gonna find, uh, some sunshine and rainbows for you, okay? [instrumental music plays] Oh, right. I was unaware, but this week, libraries across the country celebrating Banned Books Week, and, you know, I've talked plenty about banned books. Think I mentioned the other day
that the author I collect most, Stephen King, got the title of most banned author in America. It's insane to me that in 2025 we are still banning books. It's just
nutty. But I remember even when I was a kid, the library in Pocatello would put on a display, or put up a display, you know, for Banned Books Week, and
it was like, "All right. These are all the books I need to read." Yeah! Well, now, you know, you, you have to, like, show ID to go to that section here. One of the dumbest laws that I've seen our local legislators implement ever. We should be encouraging people to read. Well, Hawaii, they had to take down the signs across the entire state that said, "Banned Books Week." And they're c- they're claiming they're doing so 'cause they didn't want people to think the library was banning books and that the signs might be confusing. Okay, listen, if you have a sign [laughs] that says, "Banned Books Week," and there's a bunch of books there that you can check out, I'm sorry, but I'm, I'm pretty sure people will know what's going on. Think they just don't want to draw attention
to these books that, you know, uptight prudes are, you know, bothered by. Stephen King is great. If you've never read any Stephen King, pick some up and give it a good read, all right? It's good for your mind, it's fun, and the books are always better than the movies, so. Yeah, I kind of wish I had gotten over to the library, 'cause I wonder [laughs] if they, you know, were celebrating Banned Books Week here, where
we have, like, the most restricted library laws in the country. [laughs] So ridiculous. [laughs] [rock music plays] No, no, not words! [exclaims] And it's always these people who just cry about, you know, freedom of speech, that, j- we're banning everything. All right, anyway, sorry. That, it's, just frustrates me.
Let's, let's talk about something completely different. What are ladybirds? 'Kay? This article's out of the UK, and I gotta g- I'm, I'm looking at a picture here. They look like bugs. Not ladybugs, I want ladybirds.
Are they ladybugs? I guess so.
Yeah, uh, they, they, they look like ladybugs. I guess they call 'em ladybirds over in the UK. So, anyway, this woman's house was just overtaken by these, and I guess that, uh, hundreds of them invaded her home and have been, uh, just peeing on her, and peeing everywhere. And she says it, uh, smells really bad, and it, uh, turns out they also have some type of disease. So, you know, you could get, like, all, all sick, and [exclaims].
Nasty. You know, everybody likes ladybugs here. Like, "Oh, look at 'em!" You know, and they take care of, uh, other pests and things like that. I know people will dump a bunch of them into their garden and things like that. Yeah, I guess you just don't want 'em in your house peeing all over you and spreading disease. That's disgusting. [laughs] Nasty!
Yeah, if you wanna watch a ladybird swarm video, you can, uh, find that on TikTok. And, you know, just be grateful that you're not having this problem in your home. Or maybe you just move to a lighthouse. I saw a lighthouse for sale, think it was about 500 grand. Thing gave me the creeps. Gave me the creeps! It's in Virginia, and, uh, you have to take a boat to get to it. Um,
I don't know if I could be living in a place that's surrounded by open water. It, you know, looks nice enough on the inside, but maybe because I watched that movie, The Lighthouse. I'm like, "No, if you live in a lighthouse, you're going to go insane. You're going to lose your mind." [instrumental music plays] I dunno, I guess may- it, it's probably for somebody, but
not me.
No, I wa- I wanna be able to run from my home if, if you get a ladybug infestation or something, not have to take a boat. [exclaims] It's just creepy lookin'. It's... You can look it up, "lighthouse for sale." [laughs] You got 450 grand burning a hole in your pocket and you're weird? Move into a lighthouse. All right, let's see what else I can dig up for this program. [instrumental music plays]
[instrumental music] Morning, people! Little after eight o'clock, what up? It's the Victor Wilt Show. Hope you're having a good Friday so far. I am ready for the weekend, and we're gonna have some fun. We got a great show going down tonight at the Mountain America Center with In This Moment: Dayseeker, The Funeral Portrait, and Dead, sorry, I had a brain fart. [laughs] [instrumental music]. And then, uh, you know, nice rainy, cool day tomorrow. Perfect day to just kick back, relax, and watch horror movies. Talked about some of the scariest movies of all time earlier on the show.
Now, let's talk about other scary things, scary places. I don't know, I made a, a handful of people mad on Facebook
[laughs] last night and this morning. I posted a clip from The Daily Show where they were showing, uh, you know, clips of various activities going on in Portland, Oregon, 'cause, you know, Portland, Oregon being touted as
this, uh, just nightmarish war zone. And, you know, I got a lot of friends in Portland, I've been to Portland tons of times. Downtown can be, like in any big city, you might see some weird stuff, but I've never felt, personally, me, personally, unsafe in Portland, all right? I've been to some, uh, sketchy places, [laughs] all right? I've been to Tijuana, all right?
Where, where you've got, uh, military on the streets... Well, I, I guess that's [laughs] what they've got going on in Portland right now. But it made me curious, I'm like, "What are, statistically, the most dangerous cities in America?" 'Cause we've talked about the safest cities in America, usually, like, Boise pops up on that list and, you know,
boring places like Casper, Wyoming, or, you know, cities in Vermont and things like that. But I was like, "Okay, what are the most dangerous cities in America?" You know, do we got Portland in there? 'Cause I, you know, my, my friends in Portland are laughing about this. They're like, "Oh," you know, you talk to them, they're like, "Oh, man, I'm just hanging out in the war zone." I was talking to my buddy, uh, Elwood, from Will Rock in Chicago the other day. We were talking about Nine Inch Nails and just playing catch-up. Chicago's, you know, got the same thing going on. And, I mean, he was just laughing about it too. He's like, "Man, it's crazy here! It's crazy! Oh!" [laughs] He's not very worried. He's like, "You should come hang out." Every list I looked at says that Memphis, Tennessee is the most dangerous city in America. Every single one. Now, there are a variety of lists that break these down by a variety of factors, but on none of these lists did I see, uh, Portland very high on the list or, or Chicago. You've got Memphis, you've got Detroit, Fort Lauderdale, Baton R- Rouge and New Orleans, Baltimore, Cleveland, Oakland, Philadelphia, you know, I, I just wanna point out that,
like I mentioned going to Tijuana. There are lists out there that will say Tijuana is the most dangerous city in the world. In the world! I've seen that list before. I went there, I walked around on the streets by myself. Like I said, there is military in the streets, guys with machine guns and stuff. I don't know, [laughs] those guys made me more nervous than the locals, uh, 'cause they have guns, all right? When, when the, when you got people with guns marching around and they're on edge, it's like, "All right," you know? But I still, I, I didn't feel nervous in Tijuana. I walked into restaurants by myself, I was checking out local shops and things, just walking arou- like, go to the grocery store. And, hm, I don't know, maybe I've just been to a lot of, you know, sketchy places
and therefore I'm not afraid. But I ve- I tell you what, man, I certainly wouldn't be bothered myself, me, roaming around Portland, 'cause I've, I've done it. So, I think you should visit Portland. Now, again, it's not like here, okay? It's a much larger city. You know, I've been in sketchy areas of Seattle, sk- sketchy areas of LA, Minneapolis, Vegas. Boy, man, you wanna talk... Uh, go to Vegas and go to some of those [laughs] you know, roads a few blocks off the strip, it's kinda wild, but
I don't know. I, I just think we got some fearmongering going on and I think Portland's a beautiful city. I love it there. I love Oregon. So, I mean, I saw a list that said Salt Lake City was one of the most, uh, dangerous cities in the country, all right? Salt Lake. Have you ever been to Salt Lake? A lot of you have. Scary! Oh, it's scary in Salt Lake. Ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo! [laughs] Yeah. Man, check out some of these things for yourself, okay? [laughs] D- don't just let other people tell you how things are, 'cause we live in a wild world with a lot of, uh,
basically it's political reasoning behind a lot of moves that are made. So, yeah. I don't know, I was thinking of, uh, again visiting Seattle, I mentioned that earlier. My daughter lives really close to there. I don't know, it's scary. Scary! [instrumental music] Well- Hold on, I gotta turn all those on 'cause, uh, my profiles and that stuff. What up, Jay Davis? Ah, Victor Wilt, at least you're paying attention finally. [laughs] It's 'cause it's Friday and I'm excited so I'm a little more alert than usual. Concert day. Concert day. It's been a long 10 days of concerts, you know? [laughs] There's been a lot going on. I mean, I'm... It's a first-world problem. "Oh, I have to go [laughs] to all these shows." [laughs] Oh. Boo-hoo! "I'll have to get on stage and yell at people for fun!" [laughs]
[laughs]
[laughs] At least tonight I don't have to remember the name of any sponsors, and then- [laughs]
[laughs] And you didn't remember last time?
I know.
[laughs]
And I even have them on my phone.
[laughs]
I just got too pumped. You know, sometimes that adrenaline gets going.
Uh, and pumped is spelled D-R... [laughs]
That's not true. That is not accurate.
[laughs]
Otherwise, I would have been, "Oh, what was I gonna say?"
Pumped up a Mountain Dew.
[laughs] That's right.
[laughs]
Ah, well, what, what the heck is going on this morning, Jade?
Just coming to give you more work.
Dude, I, I already told you about the work I need to do.
Yeah?
I don't, I don't have any more room on my plate.
That work should've been done, months ago.
Oh, well-
You slacker
... it should've been done years ago.
[laughs]
Don't get me started on that. [laughs]
[laughs]
Ah, it's nice when you sort of start seeing the finish line in sight, though. [laughs]
Yeah, there's no finish line.
[laughs] Oh, I know in this biz there's not.
You know what's coming up.
Oh, oh yeah, I guess, uh, Christmas music. [laughs]
[laughs]
That shouldn't be too tough, so-
Studio rebuilds.
Oh, well, I don't have to help with that.
Yeah, you do.
That's what the engineer does. [laughs] Oh, yeah, wait, I've been, yeah, getting slowly trained on some of that crap too.
Yep.
Dang it. Ah!
I, I can't be the only one.
Can't I get paid to just nap every once in a while?
No. [laughs]
Why not?
Because if I can't get paid to nap, you definitely don't get paid to nap-
We have a-
... and I'm higher up on the ladder than you are. [laughs]
[laughs] We have a couch. We have a couch in the, uh, break room now.
If anyone gets to nap, it's me.
No. I've-
Boss man. It's all about me!
No, it's all about me!
[laughs]
I get up early, I should deserve a nap, a nice, nice nap time.
You deserve nothing but more work.
And that room doesn't even have windows. It's pitch black in there. [laughs]
You can sleep good. You can sleep great. [laughs]
[laughs] Ah, well, you know what I'm getting ready for? Traffic school, Jade. That's what I'm getting ready for, hanging out with the cops.
Oh, yeah. See if you can make a fourth mic profile before then.
Um,
I, I don't need to make a profile.
[laughs]
I just, you know, activate it on that pot. I, I, I-
If you picked the right mic. I left all the old ones from the studio prior to this-
Oh
... still in the system, so you gotta figure it out.
Great.
I made it real easy for you, though. And see, you can-
Is it called mic four? [laughs]
[laughs] There you go.
Okay. We don't need a fourth mic, though. Who's... I mean, we don't have anybody coming in, as far as I know. Ben, you know, we miss you, Ben. Come on by, Ben from The Advocates Insurance. He-
Well, how about later when, uh, we have a band in here?
Aren't they doing that in the, uh-
Yeah, maybe
... th- that other studio? That makes more sense to me.
Yeah.
If they're, if they're gonna be set up in there doing an interview, just sit down on the couch and talk. [laughs] I mean, it would be easier to just activate a fourth mic in here, but, you know, look at this mess. I cleaned this place up, like, a week ago.
You still won't fix the one-
Peaches is sloppy.
Still won't fix the mess between the, the console and the chair, though.
Well, that, that mess can't be fixed.
I know.
[laughs]
It just keeps getting worse, actually.
That's right. I am a disaster.
[laughs]
[laughs]
Especially in the last few months. [laughs]
Oh, it's... Just we've had a lot going on. It's tiring.
[laughs]
And I get no naps. Get no naps.
You had Peaches. You ruined it.
I... I'll, I'll, I'll get a nap this weekend.
[laughs]
It's a rainy day tomorrow.
Yes.
Uh, my yard work's done. I put-
There's no rest for you.
I put away my patio furniture last night, so I don't need to do anything, anything else, so-
You know what you're gonna be doing tomorrow?
Sleeping!
Nope.
I'm gonna be sitting on my couch watching horror movies. That's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna eat and watch horror movies and relax.
[laughs]
It's a rainy day. There's nothing you can do. May- maybe some laundry.
[laughs]
Maybe some other chores around the house. Bob!
[laughs]
Come do this, Bob!
[laughs] That's not how it goes.
Bob, I need you!
[laughs]
Bob!
[laughs]
Bob! Come on, Bob! Who's, who's Bob? [laughs] I never heard of this guy before. Bob!
[laughs]
[laughs] Ah. Well, anyway, Jade, um, I need to get ready to hang out with the police officers you know.
Bob needs to do the dishes!
You should, like, get out of here.
Bob needs to vacuum!
[laughs]
Bob, I need a back massage!
[laughs]
Bob, make me a sandwich!
[laughs]
Bob!
Oh, you're out of control today. [laughs] Why are you all riled up? You've been tired as me all week.
It's concert day, Bob!
[laughs] I'm...
Yeah, I'm, I'm pumped. I'm jacked.
[laughs] I don't wanna tell you. [laughs]
Bob!
All right. We're, we, we gotta-
Play music, Bob!
I'm gonna 'cause w- I've heard enough.
Bob! [instrumental music]
No clue what I was gonna talk about. [laughs] I thought I had a tab open with something stupid, but, uh, apparently I was wrong. So, uh, like I mentioned earlier, and we've been talking about all week, we got a great show going down tonight at the Mountain America Center. In this moment, Dayseeker, The Funeral Portrait, and Dead. It's gonna be awesome. If you haven't picked your tickets up yet, you should go to mountainamericacenter.com and get some tickets to tonight's show. Peaches is gonna be chatting with the guys from The Funeral Portrait here in a bit. Hopefully he'll get that interview online nice and snappy so you can check it out before the show. Very excited to meet those guys. I hear they're very cool. And I'm, I'm just pumped. It's Friday night. Nothing better than a Friday night show. And then we've got the weekend ahead to just kick back, relax, and watch horror movies. I need to remind myself right now
what the best horror movies of 2025 are because there are a number of them I know I wanted to see
and I hadn't gotten around to doing so. And you know how forgetful I am. I just can't remember the names of a lot of movies that I wanna see. So let's go ahead and pull up from Rotten Tomatoes the 100 best new horror movies of 2025, and I'm gonna read every single one. Just kidding. Not really gonna read every single one but...[heavy metal music] I have seen Rotten Tomatoes number one pick, a movie called Sinners. If you haven't checked that out yet, it's really good. All I will say about it is that it's a vampire movie and it really took me by surprise. It was really fun. It had some weird [laughs] aspects to it that I'm not gonna give away, but it was really good. Sinners, and I think that's available on streaming. All right. Their number two best horror movie of 2025, Oddity, which I have not seen, so I need to know that. I mean, I'm just gonna make a list. I hope my lady is ready to watch nothing but horror all weekend. I, we'll watch whatever sounds good. But I hope we can do a horror marathon. That'd be so fun. Oddity, gonna have to watch it. I've heard a lot of good things about it.
Same with number three, The Ugly Stepsister. I hear that's, uh, pretty brutal.
One of them, uh, body horror movies, you know, in the vein of The Substance or Together. Don't know why I haven't watched The Ugly Stepsister, but I think I'm gonna have to throw that on the list. Now this one, I don't think I heard of. Mads. M-A-D-S, Mads. Very highly rated. Gonna have to check it out. Number five, Companion, I have seen. It was really good. Like an AI kind of thing. I- I don't wanna give much away. All right, number six, Weapons, which we started watching and we have gotta finish. I was really digging it. We watched, I don't know, the first half hour or so, and then, I don't know, we had to take off or something. I don't remember what happened, but, uh, we did, we did not finish it. So, gonna have to watch that one for sure. Cloud at number seven. Haven't heard of that one. Number eight, The Devil's Bath. Ain't heard of that. See, I'm, I'm not really that good of a horror fan apparently, 'cause I ain't heard of The Devil's Bath or number nine, Strange Harvest. Did recently watch number 10, Together, which is, uh, [laughs] stressful. I wouldn't call it gory. I'd call it stressful. I think Together was really cool. Heretic at number 11 was, was really great. Uh, what else do we got here? V/H/S/Beyond. The Substance was really good. Bring Her Back was really good. Haven't seen 28 Years Later. I don't think The Long Walk is available on streaming yet, but I really wanna see The Long Walk. Then you've got Presence, which I haven't seen. Dangerous Animals, haven't seen that. Long Legs was pretty fun. I mean, the fact that they were able to make a list of the 100 best horror movies of the year so far
shows how many great horror movies have been released. So it's Halloween time. Watch yourself some horror this weekend. So excited. So excited. All right. I'm gonna be back in a minute. Oh, the button. The button didn't work! No! [laughs] My goodness. Um-
What? [laughs]
[laughs] I've got some complaints for you, buddy. Uh, this mic's a piece of crap. I don't know if you were listening to traffic school and heard my complaints.
Maybe it's just a short little midget that was trying to use it.
No.
[laughs]
[laughs] The big oaf was trying to use it too. [laughs] No, it's, uh, I, I think the cable's bad.
Yeah.
It's, uh, got a like, when you talk into it, wummm, wawowew, waw. Yeah. And shake it-
Then solder it back together.
Ugh. I don't know how to do that. I never learned that skill.
You put the hot end on there until things melt and then you remove it.
And then you just... Oh, okay. That's easy.
Yeah.
I could do that.
Just match up the... Where they go already.
See, but, um, how do we get the cable out of there? You gotta, uh, do you cut it and then pull it out or-
Yeah.
Oh, what a pain.
Take a picture of where each one goes. There's three in there.
Too much work.
And then, and then solder them back in place.
Ugh. Too much work.
Like to see you shaking all over the place trying to get that done.
Uh, couldn't we just, like, get a real short cord and let's leave this one on here and we just plug it in and go like that?
What if it's this part?
It, it could be, but, uh-
It's not necessarily right here.
Yeah.
Or right here. It could be that one.
Oh, that doesn't look good. The way it-
And that one has to be soldered
The way it just came out like that?
Oh, they all do that.
Oh, they all do that. Oh, I didn't realize that. I don't wanna monkey with stuff. I like to keep things working so I don't monkey with stuff, you know? Sometimes you don't need to touch things.
No, you just sit there and break it.
I didn't do it. That's not my mic.
Remember when you sat there so long and your, and your elbow started hurting?
Yeah.
See?
That happened to me yesterday.
Sloth.
Dubbing tracks. No, dude, if you put your arm on a hard surface and just leave it there, it's not good.
It's called a sloth.
No, it's not. It's called bad posture.
[laughs]
We learned about it in a meeting. Remember that useless meeting we had that one time?
[laughs] And then nothing happened after.
Exactly. You're all mandatory required to come to this meeting about proper posture, and here's all the things that you need in your offices so you don't mess yourself up on the job, and we're getting you none of it. [laughs]
Are you talking about the chairs again?
Yeah, I'm talking about the chairs. Talking to that mic.
Hello. Check, check, check.
Oh, go figure. Now it's not making a sound at all.
It's like going to the doctor. You all of a sudden just feel better.
Yeah.
[laughs]
Just leave it right there. [laughs] I'm not gonna be able to reach it when I sit on that side.
So- typical IT problem.
[laughs]
I can't wait to the-
"Nothing's working." I walk in here. I'm like, "Everything's working fine. What are you talking about?"
Yeah, it's working great.
I can't wait to see Lieutenant Crane try to use the mic at this height.
D- don't touch it.
[laughs]
I'm not, sorry. I touched the cord now-
We got a, we got a stepstool around here somewhere.
Maybe you're-
It's true
... pulling that piece out, Jade, that I didn't know it could, you know, be pulled out. Maybe that fixed it.
Yeah.
Uh, if it works for now, good enough, right?
Yeah.
I can do the Noon Hour standing up over here.
All right. That's, that's fine. We'll be good to go. And, um, are, are you gonna post that interview today? Like, try to chop, chop, get it up?
Um, sure. Yeah.
You should.
I was gonna s- see if we should try doing a Facebook Live, but, uh...
Doing a Facebook Live?
Yeah. Not just with them and also the other thing and...
I mean, it's-
The thing that goes with the thing that has all the things we're talking about.
The OBS... Yeah, you got OBS all set up on the laptop.
Because that thing's so cool and it leads into this other thing that we used to do back in the day, that thing.
Yeah.
Well, yeah. Maddi has a tripod for the phone.
Yeah. We-
We can just go live on the phone.
Oh, okay. I guess you could-
Yeah. Right, it's OBS
... but it's gonna sound like, it's gonna sound like crap.
Oh, is it? Okay. Well then-
Well, yeah, 'cause it's just phone audio. Phone audi- audio's garbage.
Sorry.
You ever watch a concert video online? Sounds like garbage.
[laughs] Just a sugge- You're the guy who just uploaded a concert video yourself and he got 900, no, he got 1,000 likes on it.
I know. But, uh, that's different than guys talking in a room.
Please. You're the guy who uploaded TikToks of you with Snapchat filters on your face. "Oh, there's a spider on me." That whole thing.
Yeah, I got good, good, I got some good action out of that.
[laughs]
People like stupid videos. They're dumb. [laughs] All right. I, I gotta go help Jade with some stuff, Peaches. It's very important.
Okay.
It's very important.
All right.
And I gotta help you with some stuff, and we need to leave. So we're gonna play a scary Halloween song.
Ooh.
Thanks to our friends at Juicity Vapor with K-Bears, Rockin' Halloween. It's...
Rockin' Halloween.
Rockin' Halloween.
Shiny toy guns. [heavy metal music]
