0:30
I sang that one day when I was getting ready for a torment and it like stuck in my head. This is like two years ago. I think it's one of my shorts on this channel, man. It's probably on there somewhere. What's going on, guys? I hope you're doing good. Hope life is well. I hope everything is going good. You know what I'm saying? Ah, feeling good. Been a long week. Been a funny week.
1:06
Oh man, I've been contacted by quite a few people this week. It's been [ __ ] hilarious. I figure, you know what? Um, instead of reading all your comments and writing them out, I figure, you know what? I'll just I'll just go through them here in real time. How about that? I'll go through them in real time. We'll go through them all together and we'll have some laughs. How about that? [Music] Hey man, I wasn't trying to cause a drama or nothing. Just being honest. You know, that's what I do. Let me tell you how the whole thing started. Okay, I'll tell you how the whole thing started.

rumor_hype: PeeWee's Playhouse mentioned as alternative speculation for Spooky's next release

low · Walt: 'one of my buddies are like, Yo, what if it's PeeWee's Playhouse?'

2:05
You hold it and you sip. You take some coffee. Right there. Seattle speedball.
2:29
ready. Now I've had my Seattle Speedball. I am ready. Let's tell you how the little thing started. So, I got an email from this dude. [Applause]
2:45
This dude uh Colin and uh he's a nice guy, the kineticist guy. And uh he goes, "Hey man, you're one of these uh content creators that I haven't contacted yet, and I have your information, and I'm just curious if you want to go to this pinball media mixer at the Chicago Expo. Please let me know if you want to go ber, whatever the [ __ ] he said." And I'm like, in my mind, I'm like, What? Like content creator? I'm not a [ __ ] content creator, dude. I just like to talk [ __ ] about pinball, man. Good and bad. The ugly, you know, the truth, the [ __ ] as ugly as it can be. You know, sometimes the truth can be as ugly as Rumple Stillilskin's dick, but we got to talk about it. You know, that's just the way it is. And he goes, "Uh, so let me know if you want to go to this media mixer." And I'm like, you know, I didn't say anything back yet. So, I look up the one from last year. I look I Googled pinball media mixer, you know, and I look it up and this is like a like a week after I watched Canada's video and he was talking about like the same guy, this Glenn Washer guy, whatever the [ __ ] it is. Sorry, I don't know your name, bro. I just have a it's there's a it's a weird spelling, bro. I'm dyslexic, but like I'm not doing that as like a dog like a diss on the guy. I just don't I don't know how to say your name. Sorry. But like [ __ ] so this dude was already on my radar, you know, because he I I saw his comment and I usually don't care about comments, bro, but this guy's like if you go on that Facebook and where I saw this comment is on Fox City's pinball. It's like under one of my um the the one where I'm headbanging, bro. I'm getting into it. Just whatever. Like it's usually every clip of me is like [ __ ] you know, I love music, you know? And guys, like I don't understand like if you guys have never been like there's a lot of pressure, there's a lot of stress in those situations. And pinball is like it could it's like that if you miss flip off a target and done and your tournament life is over. So it's very important to like keep yourself calm, keep yourself focused, keep yourself. I like to keep myself happy and smiling and grooving and dancing, you know? And like I I guess for me it's like my instinct is like to get irritated when people are talking [ __ ] but I guess when when the dust is settled, I sit back and I'm like, man, you know what? It it really like it disappoints me that there's people rolling around with us in the world that they see somebody like me. Maybe somebody like you, maybe you guys listening are the same way, man. You're just naturally happy. You're just happy at what you're doing, man. And it just so happens that you're on camera and you're playing you're playing a [ __ ] game, dude. Like, you're playing a game that you've been playing since you're a kid. Like, often times that's the case. Like I I played a Twilight Zone out there in Chicago. I've been playing Twilight Zone since I was like since it came out. Really? Whenever it came out. I was playing pinball before that came out in what ' 92 or whatever that was. I was already two years in. So, I don't know, man. It's just like I guess it it it makes I get sad that there's people rolling around that they think that we can't be that happy without the aid of drugs. You know what I'm saying? And I'm gonna think this is not a [ __ ] drug. Okay, this grows out of the earth. If you think this is a drug, go watch Reefer Madness. That shit's hilarious. This is of the earth, my friend. Mushrooms. [ __ ] THC. Of the earth. Of the earth. God's gift to man. It's in the Bible.
7:19
I just I I think it it just bums me out that there's people like man dude like you can't imagine somebody just on cloud [ __ ] cloud nine cloud 10 like Kendrick said I'm on cloud 10 he's on cloud 10 [ __ ] cloud nine.
7:41
Um, I don't know, man. That So, I guess I guess at first I get mad, then I get sad about that cuz I realize, yo, this [ __ ] thinks I can't roll without drugs. Like, that's just I'm just like, dude, if if I realize the situation I'm in, I'm on camera. There's people watching. There's people talking about me live on camera, like when you're being commentated, like you're in a game that's being tal like like there's commentators in the booth. Like dude, like you gotta keep yourself loose. You gotta keep yourself d like dancing, dude. Like that's why I'm dancing, you know? That's why, you know, half the time all this [ __ ] like I'm just keeping it loose. And
8:25
I don't know, but so yeah, dude. I'll go through let's go through these comments and see what you guys thought about the whole thing. The only one I saw is uh somebody showed me Canadas and Franchie's comment because there people were rolling up to me like, "Did you see?" I'm like, "No, dude. I just posted ghosts, man. I just roll." But you know,
8:52
let's go through it, guys. Let's see what you got to say about the whole thing. Let's see here. All right, let's go through it. I got it right here. Let's see. Here we go. That's something we're going to talk about in a minute. But first, I wanted to address this video that we made about saw. Now, like I still feel the same way about the saw. Like um I still think it's you guys took the design and like I I'll say this to this dude Glenn if you're watching, man. Like yo, you guys still took the design and made it worse. Like I could say this to you calm as just like I said it to you last week. all fired up. You guys took the design and made it worse. There's like there's next to I didn't hear any game music in there. No game audio. I mean, I heard a little game audio when it was like ball was in the pops and [ __ ] like that. Um, yeah, game rules. Everything was lit. I mean, dude, we went through it. I mean, here I am going through it. This is like a paradox. Look, it's me watching me. We're not going to do that. I do I was curious about what your comments were. So, let's start with the first down here, which was Canada, which is funny. It says first [ __ ] Canada, man. You know, much love, buddy. Canada, I don't want to say, man. Thanks for keeping it real, bro. We need more people like you in the industry keeping it real, you know, whether you like it or not. And the dude's smart, man. Like, I learned a lot listening to that guy. I don't know [ __ ] about marketing. I don't know [ __ ] about like like half the time I he like he starts because I just watch his Saturday uh I watch Canada's Saturday spectacular or whatever the [ __ ] he calls it cuz I'm broke. I don't have any money to go on Patreon and [ __ ] like that. Dude, I literally live off of pinball winnings. Like I'm not even joking. Like I if the food I eat, the money I'm able to give my girlfriend's mom for a little bit of rent, it's all from pinball. It's all from pinball, dude. Like, that's it. I don't know too much, you know? I learned a lot from this dude, you know? So, you just got to keep up. Keep keep on doing your thing, brother. Keep on, you know. Yeah, man. Keep it keep it up, dude. Just keep being real. And I hope more people watch the watch Canada and like learn just just maybe it'll inspire them to be a little more honest, you know? But the world needs more of that, man. More honest, even if it's an unpopular opinion, man. We got to we got to [ __ ] roll with that. So, Canada, cheers, brother. Much love. Um, definitely think you get together with Kale Electric Bat and make that's your Patreon right there, bro. You and Kale just talking [ __ ] Grab a couple drinks on the weekend. Let loose and [ __ ] There you go, bro. That's your show right there. Um, yeah. Cheers, brother. All right. What we got there? Uh, Michael Michael Cog. Love that line. Blow my dick off. Is that so much to ask? You know, I just want my dick to be blown off. Yeah, love that line. Blow my dick off. Good on you, Walt. Straight for three years. That's a huge effort. Keep your chin up and keep up with the great content. Well, thanks a lot, brother. I appreciate that. You know, it it's easier every day when you find something to replace it. Like for me, it was pinball. You know, I just substituted one drug for another, you know, like pinball is the greatest drug in the world. Music, video games, these are great drugs, man. And it's drugs. It's drugs that we, you know, you consider it a drug. It's not really a drug as in the means you're taking it. But like society will tell you these are things that you should quit at some point. Like everybody's told us at one point or another we should quit video games. Everybody told us we should quit pinball. I've been told that from my family and [ __ ] [ __ ] all them. That's why I don't talk to them. You should quit. You should quit X, Y, and Z. You know what I'm saying? And I just say, "Fuck that." You know? I I always think of a clip from
13:15
Rick Stetta, Special When Lit. He goes, "Uh, my old family always told me that I should quit pinball." And I always knew that they were wrong. you know, I didn't want to look back one time and and go, I wonder what would have happened if I did that. This is Rick's stat. He's and I'm, you know, uh, ad living a little bit, but essentially that's what he meant. Like those that's essentially what he meant. I don't want to look back and go, what would have happened if I did whatever, you know? That dude was [ __ ] legend, bro.
13:52
Um, but yeah, man. like just replacing that drug that you had with one thing with with another healthy thing is such a you know so it gets easier every day man I appreciate that man thanks so much next Joel Joel Palmer Walt for president brother yeah let's go bro no dude I'd be the first one taken out dude no I'd be taken out in a heartbeat brother in a heartbeat Pinpilms. Love you guys. Jay's Jews Arcade. Hope I said that right. We need a soft pinball machine 100%. But needs to be amazing. Yeah, man. Exactly. I mean, the one thing that they did is cool is they put the saw handle as a plunger. That's cool, bro. You got that going. But honestly, not much else, man. You know, and maybe I don't know if Saw like that's the IP right now for people. Like, are people even going to remember Saw, dude? Like, when's the last Saw movie? The first one was bomb. I remember the first one, but I don't remember the ones after that cuz there like [ __ ] 15 Saw movies now. Let's see the next one. Sad Boy. Sad Boy 7537. Hey brother, you know what? I get there sometimes too, man. I just want to say cheers brother. Hit me up if you ever feel like that because you know what? You're among friends. You know what I'm saying? I battle with these all the time, man. You know what I'm saying? I know Glenn person. He goes, "Oh, this this guy goes, I know Glenn personally. He's a middle-aged loser who lives outside of Nashville and plays in the most toxic pinball community in the country. He's eternally buttth hurt that he'll never be an elite player and is all talk and no walk. Big- time loser.
16:02
This guy sad boy said he knows Glenn personally outside of Nashville. Most toxic pinball community in the country. Man, I don't know if I ever played pinball in Tennessee. That's in Tennessee, right? Nashville, Tennessee. I had to remind myself. I'm an idiot, dude. Like half the time I don't remember like what [ __ ] state like where in the country the state is. Like if it's [ __ ] like Montana, like is that over there or is it over there? I think it's up here. Like if I'm looking, you know what I'm saying? Like I got to remind myself after I'm such dumb [ __ ] I've lived in three states. Pennsylvania, that's where I'm from. I'm from Philadelphia. And then when I was 13, I moved to Arizona. And then I and then stayed another 13 years. And then I moved when I was 26, I drove my car out to Colorado. And the next day, they repossessed it. My mom was pounding on the door. They're taking your car. I'm like, "How the [ __ ] did they find me?" That was one of the reasons I moved out here. I was like, "Yo, dude. If I just drive to Arizona or [ __ ] drive to Colorado, they'll probably never find this [ __ ] It was a rental car." I was Or it was like one of those cars you got to pay every month to pay it off and I paid like three months and I was like, "All right, I'm out of money." So, but I need a car. So, next day and they were You're taking your done. I was running down the street, bro. We're chasing after this thing like I'm like they're gonna be like, "Oh, there's a guy. Hold on. Let's see what he wants." Like like they're gonna stop. [ __ ] hilarious.
17:51
Oh, man. Well, unfortunately, Sad Boy doesn't have too much good things to say about this guy, Glenn. But hey, you know what? I don't have anything personally like against this guy, dude. I just had to call him out cuz yo, I saw that you worked on a game, you know. And then when I looked at the pinball media mixer picture from the last year, there was that guy Glenn Worisher or whatever the [ __ ] So I was like, "Oh, we got to talk about it. We got to talk about it." You know? So that's kind of what started the whole thing. Like dude, trust me, I I hear [ __ ] from like fans and people all the time. Why do you have to be such an [ __ ] Why do you Why do you have to say [ __ ] Why do you have to flip the games off? I get that one a lot. Why do you have to flip the games off? Why do you have to like Why do you have to be you? Essentially, that's what they're saying. Why do you have Why do you Well, hey, listen to me, Walt. Why do you have to be you? Why can't you be more like everybody else and normal and grounded or whatever? That's essentially what they want to say. Why can't you be like everybody else?
19:02
[ __ ] that, bro. You don't want to live in a world where everybody is the same as everybody else, dude. You know what kind of boring ass world that would be?
19:13
You're running around in a world, bro. Everybody's the damn same. Everybody's the same color. That's another thing. You want to live in a world where everybody's the same color? [ __ ] that, bro. I want to live in a world with just white people. That'd be boring as [ __ ] I want culture. You know what I'm saying? I want to see exotic. I want exotic [ __ ] in my life. You know, [ __ ] I don't want to see just boring [ __ ] all the time.
19:45
I'm going to make a cup of coffee. Give me one second. Look at that. I ran. You see that? I ran. I ran back cuz we're going live. I'm committed to the bit. There is no bit. This is live. But I don't want to keep you waiting. You know what I'm saying?
20:21
What if you guys found out? This has been all an act. This is really how I talk like the whole [ __ ] time.
20:34
But uh where were we at? What was I saying? Yeah, you don't want to live in a world where everybody's the same. [ __ ] that. Boring variety. Spice of life. Keep it going. You know, let's go. So, all right. Next. Next up. What we got? What we got? All right. Next up, who blew you?
21:03
Oh, yeah. Walt, don't sweat this idiot, bro. He steals IP and he steals IP and still all caps still can't come up with enough actual creativity to make that trash pin interesting. Uh,
21:26
steals IP. I mean, he's got a point, dude. Did Did you contact like this dude Glenn? Did he contact the [ __ ] like that wrote Saw that worked on Saw? Like, don't you have to like or whoever like, see, see, again, I don't know. That's why like these dudes like Canada and Kale and all these guys, they're they're the guys who are actual content creators. I don't know [ __ ] I don't I'm learning, dude. I don't know a damn [ __ ] thing. I know how to make a pinball machine home. That's what I know how to do. I can light that [ __ ] up. I can do that all day. But god damn it. I don't know. Like, you know, so I don't even know like the first step. Like who do you like do you contact like the guy who wrote Saw or is it the guy like the movie company? I don't [ __ ] know. But did this guy do that? I don't think he did to make They only made one game, right? They probably just made it in some dude's garage, didn't tell anybody, and brought it to the show. I'm assuming that's what happened.
22:26
Like, he probably would be like, "Perfect World, dude. this probably this guy probably wouldn't even want me to talk about it this Saw game cuz if now it's getting more exposure and maybe the person who does own the IP is going to find out and have a problem with this even though it's one copy. I don't I don't know. I don't know how again I don't know how the whole thing works. But I'm wondering like I that's another thing I was wondering. I was like does this guy even have like the IP? It goes back to that remember the [ __ ] Blues Brothers game? Oh god that [ __ ] piece of [ __ ] Whatever happened with that? Whatever happened with that? I heard nothing more about it. Am I supposed to memory hole that one, too? It never came out. I don't [ __ ] know. I don't remember that one, either. Like, I don't remember hearing anything new about that one either.
23:26
Yeah, let's go. Yeah, I drink coffee at two in the morning. What of it? That's how I roll.
23:38
Yeah, dude. I I [ __ ] So, did he like That's what I'm wondering. Like, I didn't think about that the first time. I was kind of fired up, but now that I'm like calmer and [ __ ] I'm like, yo, did this guy even like get the the IP like get the permission to do it? It says one reply. Let's see what that is. Let's see what Let's see what the one reply is. One reply. Oh, it's from this dude Glenn. Here we go. Please. He goes, "Please tell me what IP I stole. This was a rethe. It's very common to hobbyists to take a donor game and recreate a new game around a successful proven layout. Nothing illegal or stolen here." Well, the IP that you were saying you stole is Saw. That's it. I mean, dude, did you work on the movie? If you didn't work on the movie, bro, like, you kind of took it. Like, bro, if I make a Speed Racer game right now, I'm like, well, and then I but I I rethe it over Bonsai Run or something like that. Like, I took the IP. You know what I mean? Like, whether you're in whatever your intentions are. Well, I'm going to give all the money to St. Jude's Cancer Research. Oh my god, that's amazing. You know what though? You still took Bonsai Run. You still took Speed Racers IP. At the end of the day, you took both these things. You know what I mean? It's kind of here is the same thing, dude. You took Whirlwind and you took Saw and you just pushed like mashed them together.
25:12
That's a tough game, bro, to do again cuz Whirlwind is so good. Like, bro, you you got to bring a lot to to this if you're trying to top whirlwind, man. So, he's defending himself. Okay, next comment. We got Evang. Well, Aang 1252 says, "Walt, please retake, please retake care of yourself." What does that mean? Like, I'm not taking care of myself now. Please retake care of yourself. You're a gift to human. You're a gift to humanity and we need you around for a long time.
25:56
A gift to humanity. Uh the guy who cured polio was a gift to humanity. The guy who [ __ ] uh Elon Musk is a gift to humanity. I don't I I wouldn't put myself in that category. Thank you, though. I I consider I'm just hitting some buttons on the side of the game and talking [ __ ] I appreciate it. A gift to humanity. I you know,
26:25
[Laughter] I'm so glad I waited till now to read all this [ __ ] This is [ __ ] awesome, dude. I should do this every time. I might do this every time. I don't know. Let me know if in the comments on this one is if this is something you want me to do.
26:43
And you know what I was thinking about doing this? Let me know what you think about this is I might do What do you guys think about like if I did like once a week? You know how Canada does that thing on Saturday where he's like a live video? What about if I did a live video on YouTube maybe Sunday, the next day? So you can get Canadian on Saturday, maybe you can get me on Sunday, you know? Not that I'm putting myself in his category. I mean, this dude's this dude's pretty legit, man. The more I haven't been listening to him, I've only known of him for like a little short little while. The first I've heard of Canad was when he threw the beer and [ __ ] sexed in his face. [Laughter] And what was it? Levy had to throw him out or whatever of the [ __ ] New York Pinball. Was it the New York Pinball Showdown or New York Championship? Whatever the [ __ ] it is. Awesome legend, bro. That's legendary [ __ ] right there, bro. Keep it up. Nah, man. He seems like he's pretty pretty far and away not that dude anymore. But you know what? We all change. You can't judge that dude from that [ __ ] And I I feel like a lot of people probably do judge Skin Canada from like past [ __ ] man. But people change, man. You should have seen me 10 years ago. God damn it. I was a [ __ ] maniac.
28:13
Um, so retake care of yourself. I'm I'm taking great care of myself. Come on, man. You say retake like when did I [ __ ] up? I don't remember when I [ __ ] up. Don't I have to [ __ ] up first? I gotta have coming up on VH1 behind the music. Like, don't you have to have that like behind the music moment? Coming up. You got to have the coming up, dude. I didn't have the coming up yet. You got to have the coming up. Remember when you [ __ ] up after the commercials, the drug? That's when you go to rehab and [ __ ] right? I haven't had that yet. I mean, I have, but not since you guys have known me, you know? All right. So, next up is Chris Franchie, man. Cheers, brother. I was just playing [ __ ] Batman the other day. I was just playing some [ __ ] Batman, buddy. You're a legend, brother. Thanks a lot, man. Appreciate it. Appreciate you taking the time to check me out. Well, let's get to Dr. Pepper at Expo in October. I have to meet you. All caps. Have to meet you. I have a man crush. Strictly heterosexual in parenthesis. Franchie, you're a legend, dude. I um I bumped into you like a few years ago, dude. Right before Jaws came out. It was actually a year before Jaws came out and you had the translate and I was like, "Yo, what game is this? Is this a game?" Or I was like, "Is this a game?" And you're like, "It could be or it might be or some [ __ ] like that." And a year later it came out, dude. I was like, "Fuck." Franchie's like [ __ ] Pinstradamus, dude. He's like dropping little secrets on me. Yo, Evil Dead is gorgeous, bro. Gorgeous. My girl loves that [ __ ] loves that [ __ ] art in that game, bro. It is gorgeous. And it's just a fun [ __ ] game, man. It is. Dude, that is a fun game to play. The only bummer I've been noticing, and I don't know if Spooky knows about this or not, the ball catches that little playfield and divots in kind of like it does on EM, you know, like old em like the ball will like divot, you know, that [ __ ] like it does that. It's been doing that on the middle playfield. So, that's the only thing about the game I've noticed is kind of a bummer. But, Franchie, bro, thanks for your comment, bro. I'll be I'll be at Expo. We'll kick it, dude. I'll be mainly in the tournament. I'm not going to go to that media mixer thing, dude. Cuz, you know, I don't want any drama and [ __ ] bro. Plus, I'm I'm not a media dude. I'm just making stupid videos, man. I'm just being honest. Just Just having some fun talking [ __ ] you know? It's It's been fun. It's been interesting. Um, yeah, man. But I'll be there. I'll be walking around, man. I'll be checking it out. We'll have to [ __ ] We'll have to kick it, man. I I'm I'm hoping that Spooky drops, dude. You guys got to if if it's Beetlejuice, let us know before. Dude, they got to come out with this game before Expo, right? Because it would make sense for them to bring it to Expo. Expo is like the big one of the biggest things of the year. So, wouldn't it make sense? I'm just speculating. I'm not asking for please tell me the secrets. I don't [ __ ] care. I'm just speculating. Like, wouldn't it make sense? Excuse me. Sorry. it make sense? Excuse me. Sorry. Wouldn't it make sense for them to bring it to Expo? So, maybe you drop like they're probably going to drop it. Maybe next week they'll drop a trailer about it. I think it's Beetlejuice. I don't know for sure. I don't have, you know, I think it's Beetlejuice. But my but one of my buddies are like, "Yo, what if it's PeeWee's Playhouse?" Oh, I didn't even think of that. Cuz wasn't that speculated? Peewee's Playhouse would be fun, too. But is that the right time of the year? See, Beetlejuice is perfect. We got Halloween coming up. You know what I'm saying? My favorite holiday. H. And you might say, "Yeah, it's your favorite holiday. It's It's my birthday." Maybe that's why it's my favorite holiday, but [ __ ] it. No, man. It is my favorite holiday because it's a day where people get just be different, man. I love it. And yeah, it is my birthday, but that has nothing to do with it. People just act different. Like, they don't act like themselves. You know what I'm saying? Like, everybody,
33:02
it's just cool to see everybody out their element. It's like everybody's high, you know, everybody's been smoking with me. Like they're kind of out of their comfort zone, you know? Most people are always in that comfort bubble, you know, and they're afraid to like let loose and be honest. But on Halloween, it's like, "Oh, I got the mask on, so now I can [ __ ] you know, that's what I mean. So, it's going to be it's going to be good. I I think it's Beetlejuice." We'll see. But cheers, Fancy. Much love, brother. Pinball by pin pin. Love you guys, man. I love how you speak your mind in these videos. Walt. Double super jackpot victory laps. Love you guys, man. Hoping you got some good content out there in Chicago, man. I saw Tom out there for a little bit. Hey, Glenn. And then Glenn Glenn left me a comment, man. What does he got to say? Let's see. Hey, Walt. I am sorry. I didn't realize you were sober for three years. That is one hell of an accomplishment for anyone with addiction. I sincerely hope you keep it up. Drug use is very prominent in pinball.
34:17
Drug use is very prominent in pinball. Is it really? If it was so prominent, wouldn't they like drug test you and [ __ ] I don't really see people using drug, but whatever. Okay. He goes, "My single comment, drugs, was the one and only time I ever asked about it. I love watching you." I mean, dude, I have seen you say that [ __ ] before, dude. You said some other [ __ ] uh like a couple years ago, but it's not It's all good. Let's bury it. We're burying it. End that [ __ ] with Canada, bro. Come on, dude. You know what? You can make me feel better. Apologize to Canada. That would make me feel better. Who cares how I feel? Apologize to Canadian, bro, when he's trying to like, you know, give some [ __ ] uh give somebody some honor on 911 and you're like patronizing that. Give just apologize because I heard him say you didn't apologize. I would apologize, man. Just be a big man. Apologize. You feel better, you know, just like you did here, man. I accept your apology.

Cheers, bro. It's cool. I'm not mad, dude. I don't I don't hold grudges. You know what I'm saying? I'm not like that guy. You'd be surp Man, you'd be surprised after you have a heart attack. You'd be surprised like the [ __ ] that changes with you, man. Like Like there's a lot of things I used to get mad about, dude. I don't give a [ __ ] about anymore. Ever since last last year, it's it's almost been a year since I had a heart attack. And there's a lot of [ __ ] dude. like I just let go, you know, cuz God gives me another day. I wake up, I'm like, "Yo, I'm still gone. Let's go." So, I don't have like I don't even want to like weigh that on my conscience, man. Like, I hate this guy. I hate that guy. You know what I'm saying? Like, no, bro. It's all good, man. It's forgiving. I just had to call you out, dude. you want to say like this and that and I found out you the only like I said the only reason I brought it up is because I found out you worked on a game cuz I went down the media mixer wormhole and you know and then found out so that's the only reason and you guys had four people on game design on your pin side thing dude Pat Lawler only had himself on there and he he's the guy that came up with the fan dude did you guys come up with the fan on top of there no four of you guys didn't come up with something cooler than the fan. I'm just saying that, you know, I'm not trying to be a dick, dude. I'm just being honest. Pat Lawler's one guy. He came up with the fan,
37:26
right? I accept your apology, brother. You're good. If you're watching this video, I accept. I'll probably be busy at at Expo. I'll be running around a lot. I'll be doing this tournament, man. You know, I'll be running around. If I see you, brother, it's Cheers, man. I We'll have a great time. You know what I'm saying? But hey, man, no bad blood, no, no [ __ ] like that. That's why I wanted to make this video more or less to let you know, hey, it's cool, man. Brother, don't worry. It's all good. I get fired up, man. I'm passionate. I am a passionate [ __ ] Maybe one of the most passionate people I've ever met. I am passionate, dude. I can't help it. So, Glenn, cheers, bro. It's all good. We got one more comment here. Let's see what they say from RB Phantom Tilt. He goes, "Lol, take a deep breath, champ." Okay,
38:33
Glenn is legitimately good, dude. Canada can suck a fat one. He's the guy non-stop hating on everyone, sending threats which his little ass can't back up, then crying victim. You've been suckered on that front. Good on you being three years sober. That's badass. Well, I don't think I've been suckered. I I see [ __ ] I I watch everybody's [ __ ] dude. So, nobody sold me anything, bro. I'm just going from, you know, what I see at face value. You know, when I watch a lot of pinball content, I feel like they're trying to sell me [ __ ] You know, and Canada does that, too. He's not guilt. He's not innocent of that. You know, when he comes on and goes, "Oh, I see the bits are a little light this month, guys, and come on, guys. We only got one donation. What's going on?" You know, like, come on. I get it. You know, he's trying to push you into [ __ ] donating. I get all that, bro. I get it, [ __ ] I got kids to feed, you know? I get it, dude. I see all that. I'm smart. I pick up on all that [ __ ] But when he gets through all that, the content of or the quality of what he's saying, dude, there's a lot of truth to that. That's that's what I'm trying to say. You know, when when I watch a dude like that, that Kongs R Us guy, like, yeah, he might not talk about, hey, thanks for subscribe to me on Patreon, all that. He might not say that, but when he's speaking about the game, like like when he was speaking about the Star Wars Costco, it's still available now and you can get it today and you could it's $200 off and all these little things coming at you subliminally. So you're he wants you to think about buying it, you know, whether you realize that or not. That's why he's saying these Canad's not doing that [ __ ] dude. So I don't know about being suckered on the front, dude. I'm just kind of seeing it how I see it. I mean, you might I mean, it's perceptive thing. You might, you know, perceive it as something else, dude. But this is just how I perceive it, you know. But congrat Thank you for three years. So, you know, thank you, man. Like I said, man, it's just every day is a challenge, you know, but pinball helps, man. Pinball really helps. It's badass reviewing. It's bad. Reviewing a game. Qu says, "Reviewing quote quotes, reviewing a game because you got sad at some comments is a lot of effort. And sucking Canada's nuts only hurts your credibility, ma. I'll be at Expo, too, if you or your sweetheart Chris Colors or whatever his actual nonIP stealing name is want to get into details. The receipts are all there. Let's chat. Uh, I'm good, dude. Honestly, you sound like this RB Phantom Tilt guy sounds like he wants to get like this big argument. Uh, I'm good. I'm not sucking anybody's nuts. I'm not getting anything from this. I don't get likes. I don't get subscriptions. I'm just being honest. Like I said, you're entitled to your opinion. You can think whatever you want. If you think I'm sucking people's nuts, that's fine. I'm just being honest. If you if you want to go back, there was a video I made when Electric Bat won the Twippy when I was making fun of Canada. So, if you want cuz this guy RB Phantom Tilt, I don't think you're doing your [ __ ] homework. If you want to go back a little bit, look at one of my videos. Electric bat wins the Twippy. And I'm sitting there talking [ __ ] about Canada, how he's whining like a little [ __ ] when he lost the Twi. So, who's sucking who's nuts on that one? Again, these [ __ ] don't do their homework. And this is coming from the guy who has receipts apparently. I got receipts. Nobody gives a [ __ ] about your receipts. I got news for you. No one cares. No one cares. Trust me, my credibility is sound. Do you know how many times people come up to me and tell me how many how they they love these stupid videos and like, "I'm so glad you said this. I'm so glad you said we're pretty solid on this channel. You don't have to worry about credibility." I think we're good.
43:02
I think that Yeah, the ship has sailed on that one. I think we're good. I think people believe me, trust me.
43:13
Bless your little heart, though. But yeah, dude. Like, and reviewing a game cuz I got sad. I didn't get sad, dude. Um, honestly, I just The game sucks. Did you see something I didn't? Cuz I think the game sucks. Like the one mode, all the arrows are lit. There's no game music, you know? It sounds like this guy's like a a friend of this guy Glenn. I mean, that's cool, bro. I'm sorry I hurt your friend's feelings, you know? Well, it sounds like I hurt your feelings. I'm like, I don't even know who this RB Phantom tilt guy is. I wasn't even [ __ ] talking to you. I'm talking to Glenn. And if you can look, me and Glenn have already patched things up. And this other guy is trying to start some extra [ __ ] Like, so I don't even [ __ ] know who this guy is. But yeah, dude. Uh, you'll be at Expo, too. That's cool. I have no interest in talking to you. I'm too busy to talk to you, bro. I'll be in the tournament. I'll be running around. I got people that actually are like creative, dude. People that want to like talk about creating things. Artists, dude. I got Franchie. Franchie wants to hang out. Am I going to hang out with Christopher Franchie or am I going to hang out with you? Take your time. What the [ __ ] do you think the answer to that question is, bro? What do you think the answer to that question is, bro? Come on, bro. If this was Batman and you're [ __ ] hanging from the cage over there and Franchie's hanging from the cage over there, you better kiss your ass goodbye. Clip. What's up, Chris? Let's go get a [ __ ] bear. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, dude. So, tough [ __ ] bro. It sounds like I hurt your feelings, man. Being honest, but you know that's what we do on this channel. RB Phantom Tilt. That's what we do, bro. That's what we do. And what game do you don't make me look your game up, too, bro? And we'll go down another wormhole here. Oh, god damn. Don't make me do it. I'm going to stop this video before we even do that.
45:24
That was fun. That was fun. Yeah. I don't care about your receipts. As far as I'm concerned, this matter is squashed. We just went through all the comments. Glenn, much love, brother. I wish you the best. I would say, dude, work on a new don't don't like trust me, dude. I have ideas for like, like I mentioned, Speed Racer. I was thinking about that IP for a while and then I'm just like, dude, why am I gonna grab something that's already been done? We got to come up with some new [ __ ] man. That's where we're at now. The world's craving some new [ __ ] dude. Some new IPs, you know, some new [ __ ] like that. That's where we're at now. We got to create some new [ __ ] like that. So, just keep hanging in there, brother. Keep at it. Don't worry about all the haters, bro. I know you got some haters in the comments here, too, Glenn. Don't worry about that. You know, people are going to say whatever they want. Look, this guy thinks I'm sucking nuts. He's entitled to his opinion, too. The world keeps on turning. Am I going to delete the comment? Am I going to block him? No, of course not. He's entitled to his opinion. So be it. You know, but honestly, like if I was to review the game today, even in a calmer mood, I'd still feel the same way. The game's boring. You You took a great game and made it worse, you know? I still feel the same way. Like, yes, I was emotional that day, but dude, I still feel the same. Yeah. So, I guess that's all I got to say about that. Um, Star Wars. There's one thing I wanted to touch on, man. Before
47:09
at Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown, which was like uh two weeks ago, I think. Or was it a week ago? It might have been a week ago. I think it was a week ago. Whatever it was. And dude, I haven't been hearing [ __ ] about it. It's the weirdest thing, man. I haven't heard a damn thing about it. Like, no one no one is talking about this game. It's It's just weird. It was the only place in the world, the world premiere of Star Wars was here in Colorado and and it came and gone. Like, I know people that went. I know a lot of people that went. No one's talking about this game. No one. That's not good, man. That is not good. That's like the first time I've seen this happen.
47:58
You know, I was going to go, man, the Rocky Mountain Showdown. You know, it used to be the tournament I always wanted to go to, man. And I won it. I won it a couple years ago. I think 2023 I won it. Or maybe it was uh one of those years. I think it Yeah, I think it was 203 I won because 2024 Zack McCarthy was here and we battled and he ended up winning. [ __ ] I love Zach. I've known Zach since he was like [ __ ] I don't know, eight years old. Love that kid, man. He's one of the most respectful, polite kids you will ever ever [ __ ] meet, man. He's so [ __ ] polite and well-mannered. Like, I want to grow up to be like Zach. You know what I'm saying? Maybe one day I'll be as polite and well-mannered as Zach. But [ __ ] no one is talking about this game. So I was going to go to the showdown, but man,
49:00
this dude who runs the showdown is the reason why we don't have big players come out here anymore. That's the whole that's that's the thing. The Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown is the reason why we have a bad reputation out here. And no one will give me a direct answer why. I had to find out and learn on my own. And you know who helped me with that? Kaylee George.
49:32
A comment he left in 2017 when I'm going down the wormhole. I started thinking why, you know, like look at this. Look at this picture, right? Okay. So, we're done. We're done with that, right? We're going to go back in. Look at this picture, right? Look at this. This This is a picture of the Rocky Mountain Showdown from like what is this from? Look, Werrick, Gagno, and Adam Lefkoff. Some of the people that used to come to this thing. And then we got Gagno. Look, there's Elwin, dude. You got Elwin. Look, there's there's Keith Ellwin. Keith Owen used to come to this. So what happened? What happened? Did people just get sick of Colorado? I don't know. Or was something else going on? Look into my eye and see now. So, I'm out in Chicago for the Lyman tournament. I'm having a [ __ ] ball. I'm not on drugs. And and people I got people coming up to me going, you know, well, how come there's never a big tournament in Colorado? How come there's never like some kind of, you know, reason for us to come out there? And I go, "The Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown is next week." And and the and one of the pros is a big time guy. I'm not going to tell you. I like I don't want to name drop, bro. This is a big time pro. And I go and I tell him, I'm like, "Yo, the Rocky Mountain Showdown's next week." He's like, "Oh, cool." I'm like, "Yeah, it is cool. You didn't even know about it, did you?" And he's like, "No, I did." He just laughs. I'm like, "Yeah, that's our biggest show of the year and you didn't know about it." So, what does that say? Nobody knows about it. Why does nobody know about it?
51:48
That's what I'm trying to find out. And no one would ever give me a direct answer until now cuz I snooped. I snooped and I dug and I [ __ ] wanted to learn. Why do people not want Why all the big pros not want to come to Colorado anymore? What did we do wrong? And I think I found the answer from Kaylee George, my hero. You know why he's my hero? I'm going to tell you a short story about why Kaylee George is my hero. Kaylee George is the dude who brought the Doctor Who game in from Indis 2022. He brought the Doctor Who from the women's bank into the main bank because I guess when you're top qualifier, you can do [ __ ] like that. I don't know. I was never ever top qualifier. So, he brought he chose to substitute the Doctor Who game for another game. And that and if he hadn't have done that, that was the game every like most people when they when I travel around the country, people come up to me, well, I've seen you play I remember you getting all these loops on Doctor Who. That's like the number one game people always talk about. Like that's one of the two. One another one is Ghostbusters when I was running around in a circle. I don't remember that one too much, but the number one is Doctor Who at Indisk when I was hitting these loops like crazy. And that the only reason that was possible was because of Kaye George. If he hadn't have brought that game over there, nobody would know who I was. But him bring doing that that day changed my life. So I I I thanked him when I last time I saw him and I thank him again here today. Man, he changed my life. So he put up a comment in 2017 about the same thing.
53:46
So this is Kayle's comment. I'm going to read it because I know it's hard to say. He goes tournaments. So it says Kaye current or former world pinball championship April of 2017 tournament should post the prizes and or payout structure before the event takes place whether it's a fixed payout or a percentage split up of entry fees and then he goes I appreciate when it's a percentage split that organizers mention it there other costs that ras off the top and then at the bottom he goes it's like when RMPS which stands for Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown It's like when Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown used to in parenthesis still does have an herb event, which is like a pump and dump, an herb event, and the payouts were low and fixed. At least they were upfront that the funds generated by qualifying were not all going back into prizes. It made it easier to weigh the quality of the tournament and its cost versus other options on a full tournament calendar.
54:52
And then there's one reply from Ryan Wanganger, who's Ryan Wanganger's legit, dude. Ryan Wanganger is honest as [ __ ] man. He's good. He goes, "This isn't true anymore." As the TD last year for Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown, I insisted on 100% pale and that's what happened. So that tells me that this is true. If Wanganger says this isn't true anymore, then this actually happened. So, let me break this down for you real quick. So, what h because I know firsthand how this happens because I see this [ __ ] now that I travel and I scorekeep. So, when I was scorekeeping in Chicago, this is what happens. These [ __ ] pump and dump on these classics, dude. They pump and dump. So, and they void and recue. Void and rec. They'll put like 20 bucks, 40 bucks, 60 bucks on one game, right? Buy all these entries. So, let's say the game is uh [ __ ] uh like Grand Prix, right? So, you're playing Grand Prix. All right, the game sucked. Oh, I had a bad one. Void and rec. So, they'll tell the scorekeeper, "Void and rec. Void and rec. Void and rec. Void and rec." That's what they were telling me when I was scorekeeping. Void and rec. That's what I thought my [ __ ] name was after a while. Void and rec. Void and rec. It means void the game and I'm recuing back in the line. Burning entries just like that where it's uh what to eight entries for 20 bucks. That [ __ ] adds up. Void and recue. Void and rec. So this guy who's running the showdown said, "Oh, number one prize is 500 bucks." Meanwhile, [ __ ] are void and recuing, voiding, recuing, and the money's coming in. And this [ __ ] is still giving 500 bucks out. That's what happened. Whether the money went in your pocket or whether the money went to something else, we don't know. Nobody knows cuz you can look down here and see again. Kaylee has another comment where he says all look some good I would like to see events make public for an event takes place. All payouts h and how and when are they are paid. If fixed payout lists the dollar amount for each paying position. If variable percentage lists what creates the prize pool. If extra money generates a variable prize pool. Not all the money goes to the prize pool. Note that example, all money from qualifying goes to prize pool minus tournament expenses or 60% of money from qualifying entries goes to prize pool, 40% to the pinball show. Or first,000 of money from qualifying entries goes to prize pool, the rest to my pocket. So that's the question I'm wondering. Is the third thing what was going on with this guy? I don't know. All I know is when I'm going down the wormhole and there's Elwin. I've never seen Elwin at the Rocky Mountain Showdown. Something happened. Now, when I look at the IFPA results, look at this. I've done my [ __ ] homework. Look at this. 2013. Look at this. Is the all the Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown events on IFPA, right? And it's all the same tournament. 20 2009 2010. Look at this. 2011, 12, 13, 14, 15. All the same events until 2016. It's a classics, an am, and a main, and then there's no tournaments until 2022. And you could say, well, Walt, there's COVID and IFBA shutdown. Well, what the [ __ ] What happened from 2017 to 2020? Something happened. Something happened in that time frame which caused all the big players to split. Something [ __ ] happened.
58:59
Something happened. And no one will give me a direct answer. Not this guy, not the big top players in the state. No one. It's up to me to figure it out. But I'll get to the bottom of it. I will. But that's all I know so far. And I don't care. I didn't even go because I didn't feel right about going to this showdown knowing that this guy's doing this. And he's the reason why the big players don't come to my state. I got to travel to everyone else's office. Why can't everybody Why can't somebody come to my office? What am I, Larry David? I got to go to Castanza's office every time. You can't come to my office. Kirby enthusiasm. People go watch it. Second season. It's the one where Larry he he he he goes to George's office. He goes to Castanza's office and he gets in a car wreck. So he ask, "Why don't you come to my office?" Well, you know, it didn't really work. That's how I feel here. Come to Colorado, please. If I was to have a tournament, I promise you I will not take a dollar out of the prize pool. Every dollar is going back to the players. Okay? I see how hard they pumping up, dude, because I'm out there scorekeeping. I'm out in the front lines with these [ __ ] I'm Void and Recue, remember? That's my name. H. Well, anyway, that's all I got. That's all I got. I love you all. Thanks for hanging with me. I don't want to keep you more for more than an hour. So, much love everybody. Let me know in the comments if that thing on Sunday if it's something you want me to do. Maybe I'm thinking about doing. I don't know. Sunday morning is kind of early for me, so I don't know. We'll see. But cheers guys. Maybe we'll do an AMA or something. Ask me anything. No, nothing's off limits. Much love, everybody, and I'll see you soon.
