Yo guys, this might be the most excited I ever have been to make a video. Most excited I've ever been. Most excited. And you're probably saying, "Oh, I know, right? Beetlejuice." Nope. Not talking about Beetlejuice. So, first of all, I know you're expected like, "Walt, you just said you made your last video. What the hell are you doing here?" Well, something happened and it's so awesome that I had to come on and and make make make this video, man. I just had to do it. So, long story short, the uh the dude from Silverball Swag, Neil, hit me up. I know Neil for years, man. I love Neil. When he was getting his pin quest off the ground, man, I kept bugging everybody to get it in their spot. And um in his his infinite wisdom, he reached out to me and said, "Hey, Walt, you know what the world needs now is a Waltwood pinball shirt." And I said, "Neil, what world are you in? A what pinball shirt? Like, who who's going to buy that?" Like, what? You're going to sell one. You just sell two. me and my girlfriend and we'll wear it out on the town, you know, like what would pinball shirt like what [snorts] he knows. Neil knows. So he's like, "Well, what would you want on it?" So I I was thinking of like the Hendrick experience, bro. So I sent him like a logo or I sent him like a color palette like yellows and purples and stuff and he had shoots me back this one logo was really cool. My face on there and detail. And then this morning he hits me up and he's like, "Yo, I got a new design you got to see." And I saw I'm going to pull it up here in a minute. You guys can see. It's awesome, man. It's so awesome. And the cool thing about this whole thing, guys, I want you to know, is I'm not making any money on this at all. I'm not making one dime. I have the opportunity. He he had asked me like, "Well, where do you want your money sent?" I guess you make money from selling merch on this site or whatever. But I I have always wanted to do something good, man. I've always been a piece of [ __ ] in my life. Like up till now. I'd say like the last few the last five years, man, I really started getting better. If you guys knew me 10 years ago, dude, you wouldn't follow me. You wouldn't watch these videos. I was a piece of garbage. I was a drug addict. I was selfish, a liar, angry, just bad person, dude. You know, and um I don't know. I feel like I got a lot to make up for in my life. though. I don't remember what tournament I was at or what state I was in. I love saying that, but it's true. But it it sounds like I was on tour with some band. I don't remember what city we were in, man. But my string broke and I punched the road in his nuts and I kept on rolling. You know, it was nothing like that. [snorts] Well, we were me and my girl were in some state for some tournament. It was a big one, too, man. Cuz I usually can't sleep the day before, you know? I'm up all night, dude, just thinking about the finals and what I'm going to do, what games I might pick. And I remember there was this ad for this this children's I don't know if they're like children's hospital or like a center for like children's like they just they do a lot. It's called Shriners Children's and they work with kids that have like disabilities, bro. Like, like here, I'll pull it up so you guys can see. It's I just I saw this ad like a hundred times, [clears throat] dude. And I just remember being like a little irritated that night and like just like nervous and anxious about the next day. And I saw these kids, bro. And I was just like, "Yo, dude." The one kid comes on, he's like, "Here, I'll give you a little synopsis of like so here's uh Shriners Hospitals for Children." So, it's like a network of nonprofits, other pediatric medical facilities across North America, and they work with kids with orthopedia conditions, burns, like burn injuries, spinal cord injuries, cleft lip, pallet. They do a lot of help for these like young kids, bro. A lot of these kids like go through all these surgeries, dude. Like the one kid I saw the I saw the ad for. Here's their site, too. I'm not trying to make you guys feel bad, whatever. I'm just saying this is where I'm coming from with this whole thing, dude. Like, I want you guys to know like this just went live. So, like, as far as I'm concerned, like it's not it's just timing where I wanted to stop making videos, honestly, bro. And like and then Neil just wanted to go live. So I'm like, "Yo, if we can do it in a way where we can kickback some money to these guys, dude. I don't know." So I remember this kid, dude. I just remember here's some pictures of some of these kids, man. But I just want to show you this kid right here, bro. I saw this ad and this kid I remember this kid, bro. He He had like [ __ ] 11 surgeries, dude. He's like six years old. And I'm just thinking to myself, like, dude, like, is my [ __ ] really that bad? Like, I'm stressing and worried about a pinball tournament, dude. Like, is my [ __ ] really that bad? Like, I I'm cool. Like, I can walk. I can do all this. This kid's been through like all these surgeries, bro. So, I was just like, "Yo, dude. Man, one day if I could ever do something." So Neil and his his godlike power has made it possible. So we can give some of the proceeds back to this charity, bro. It's so awesome, man. I am so stoked. And trust me, dude, I could use the money, okay, bro? The only money I got is money that I made from pinball. Dude, I'm plugging away every day here in Denver trying to get a job. It's tough, man. I'm not making excuses, bro.

I usually have a line geared up, something ready to go for you. I got nothing to say, man. I'm just so humbled right now that they even wanted to do that. And you know, also, I I'm just so humbled in all your guys' comments from my last video, man. Hey, this isn't the end, man. Trust me. I'm I'm trying to figure out a way. [clears throat] Well, I'm getting a lot of requests to go on Patreon, man. Maybe we'll set up a Patreon. The only thing is, man, I'd probably have to move all these videos to Patreon to make it worth it, you know? So, I mean, right now I'm doing it for free, but I'd ideally like to keep doing it for free, but if you guys want me to do a Patreon, like, if I'm doing a Patreon, man, here's [clears throat] where my mind is. I'd rather give you guys the as much content as I can, which would include videos like this. So, right now, you don't have to pay for it, but if you got to pay five bucks a month just to get a video like this, like I don't know. I'd rather, you know, I'll do it more frequently. I'll make I'll make videos like all the time while I'm looking for work. I might as well just make videos, dude. So maybe the first one I make will be my reaction to Beetlejuice if I set up a Patreon. I got some thoughts on it. Um I know you guys want me to talk about it, but we'll see what happens. [snorts] I'm just taking the whole thing. I'm I'm just digesting this, man. This blown away. Like that blows my mind, bro. They put me on a shirt. Can you believe it? They put your boy on a shirt, dude. I can't even believe it. I'm just like so stoked, man. Thank you all so much for your love, man. Shouting out to me. Like I said that last video, man. I haven't had a chance to read the comments, man. I will try to read them all. I just I'm I've been writing a lot of music lately, man. I stopped taking um I was taking these really strong edibles, like 100 millgram THC edibles. And um I stopped taking them so much. So now like I just been writing a lot more music. I've been getting into that. A lot of music that I had written in the past is coming up. So, I've been working that out. Um, yeah, man. I mean, that could be something I could do on the Patreon, too. Like, yo, this is some music I got for you. Here's some music. I mean, there's music I've been working on for video games, too. I got a banging multiball theme, dude. I can't wait to hear in a game. Oh my god. And it starts right when you start the multiball with a like I hear the drums. I don't want to do the melody because you'll get it in your head. It's a really catchy melody. I don't even want to I don't even want to hum it because you'll get it's it's that good, dude. Trust me. I know good melodies, man. This one's a banger, dude. It's just I don't even want to hum it, dude. Because you're going to get it in your head and I don't want it out yet. [snorts] I want it in my mind only. And then later it'll come out for everybody else. But that's all I got to say, man. Shout out to Neil Silverball Swag, man. You Neil, you're awesome, brother. Thank you. God bless you, man. Thank you for all you do. God bless you guys for all your support. And um the Walt, you know, merch is live. So, if you want to grab some Waltwood merch, we're doing a good thing. The we're going to get some proceeds to this charity, which is a great thing. Um, I might see if I could reach out to these guys and see if I can if I set up a Patreon, maybe I could give a cut of whatever I get to these guys also every month. So, maybe we could do that. Um, it just feels good, man. They just I don't know, bro. If if we can raise a little money for these guys, that's awesome. If if not if the only one buying the shirt is me and the mug and is me, I I'm cool with that, bro. Like I'll put those stickers everywhere. I wanted to buy 50 stickers just so that when I'm dead, they put them all over my tombstone. Put those to stickers all over my tombstone when I'm dead, man. Remind the world who's buried here. [laughter] [clears throat] Yeah. I don't want to be buried. Screw that. I want to be blown up. I seriously I'm not even joking. I want like my casket in a canoe and then you just push it out to the middle of a river or a lake and then just blow it up, dude. Like with like a thousand sticks of dynamite just [sighs] that way you go out with a bang, dude. Here lies Walter and a hand like like lands right next TO YOU. So be it. I'm dead. What do I care? But yeah, man. Just thanks again, man. Much love everybody. That's really all I got to say. I just I I'm just so stoked. I I can't even believe that this is happening, dude. I'm so pumped about the whole thing. And um much love everybody. This ain't go by forever, man. We'll figure Like I said, man, I'm looking into it. I'm going to figure out the whole Patreon thing. All I know about Patreon is how to get muted on it. How to get muted or blocked or whatever the [ __ ] happened to me on Patreon. That's all I know so far. How to get shadowbanned. how to I could see things but things aren't going in that I'm saying and I've been down this road before many times. So, it's all good, man. I'm gonna figure it out, though. So, we'll get back to you on the Patreon, man. So, but thank you guys. Much love to all your support and all your kind words, man. I love you all so much and God bless, man. And um I look forward to talking to you all soon, man. And um yeah, check out the store. It's a silverball swag. Um I think it's.org. So you could go silverball swag. Let's see. Silverball.com and I'll put a thing in the description, man. Yeah. So, and then you could just search Waltwood and I'm in there. But cheers, guys. Much love everybody. And um but like I said, I'll uh figure something out. This isn't the end of me, dude. Trust me, I couldn't quit pinball even if I wanted to. It's in my DNA, you know? You know, that's the thing, man. Like, a lot of these content creators, it seems like, to me, are just hype, man. They just want to hype you up about the I mean, look at Beetlejuice. They all hyped us up and let's go, guys. You ready for the final countdown and watch this video with my reaction? Only if you're on my Patreon. Like all that shit's kind of weird to me. I don't even want to be involved in any of that. So, I'd rather just wait till the next day and watch it with the world. I'm going to watch your eyeballs. Like, it's just weird. The whole thing is weird to me. I'm not into it. It's kind of weird, but I'm not like the hype man guy. I I'll get excited about something if I'm like into it, dude. But like I can't force it or fake it. But so well we'll see what happens, man.
