#0283 - My Callers Tried to Execute an Avenged Sevenfold Song Live On-Air - 12/08/2025

The episode begins with Viktor Wilt lurching onto the airwaves like a sleep-deprived cryptid, grumbling about computer settings, the mortal agony of making house payments, and the existential dread of accidentally seeing the word billing. As he rattles through a list of “dirty industry secrets,” he reveals a world where call centers spy on your hold-time rants, big-box stores pretend to recycle plastic only to yeet it straight into the garbage compactor, and medical billing is such a chaos swamp that your EOB is basically a cursed scroll you’re too afraid to interpret. Viktor reads all this like a man who has stared directly into the abyss of corporate America and found only a raccoon screaming back at him.Then the news deluge begins — and it is feral.Metallica fans in Australia climb a 50-meter speaker tower like sugar-addled koalas, earning themselves permanent arena bans. Viktor reflects on this with the solemnity of a man imagining himself banned from his beloved Mountain America Center, a punishment he likens to spiritual death. He then seamlessly pivots to the infamous Fabergé-Egg-Through-the-Gastrointestinal-Tract saga: six days of intestinal egg-incubation culminating in the birth of the world’s most disgusting piece of luxury jewelry. Viktor narrates this like a Discovery Channel documentary hosted by a man both horrified and deeply, deeply impressed.Immediately after comes a goose attack so brutal that it turns into full-contact avian MMA. A 72-year-old woman, just trying to vibe with ducks, gets tackled by multiple geese guarding their nest like feathered bouncers at a dive bar. Viktor reflects with pity, awe, and the faint recognition that he too might eventually be taken out by birds.We then descend into Florida/Japan/Georgia/Ohio-Man chaos: — A Doc-Brown wannabe driving around with a fake radioactive dirty bomb, night-vision goggles, drugs, and bad decision-making. — A Georgia vigilante blasting pistol rounds at a random guy outside Lowe’s because he thought shoplifting should carry the death penalty. — Japan inventing bear-proof automatic doors because their bears have clearly reached a higher strategic consciousness. — A Lexus driver using a flip-down license plate curtain like a James Bond villain but forgetting that cameras exist. — An Ohio man depositing meth through a bank pneumatic tube like he’s mailing contraband directly to Santa.And then — like a storm cloud of chaos hovering overhead — Peaches enters the studio, radiating pure chaotic neutral energy. What follows is a deranged debate over whether Nine Inch Nails made a rock song or a Daft Punk tribute, whether the Grammys have lost their mind, and which subreddit deserves to be trolled into meltdown next.But then comes the centerpiece of madness: the Crank It or Yank It blood ritual over the new Avenged Sevenfold track “Magic.” Viktor likes it. Peaches despises it. The callers? They show up like an angry mob armed with pitchforks made of pure opinion. One by one, voice after voice, they call in to YANK IT with the force of angry medieval peasants overthrowing a monarch. Viktor, stubborn as a Viking king refusing to abandon a sinking longship, stands alone on Team Crank It, declaring, “Tell me to never play it again and I’ll play it every hour.”By the end, there are more Yank votes than casualties in a Roman battle, but Viktor remains loyal to the bizarre, psychedelic, auto-tuned chaos of Avenged Sevenfold, while Peaches cackles like an overstimulated elf who’s been awake for 300 years.The episode closes out with Viktor drowning in tabs, complaining about Good Charlotte touring with Avenged Sevenfold, and Peaches fantasizing about chaos erupting in metalcore subreddits. The entire show dissolves into a miasma of mushrooms, rage-bait, Snapchats from coworkers confused by the beat, and Viktor sort-of-kind-of threatening to play “Magic” one more time just to spite Revonda.

#0282 - Descent Into the Carpet-Shampoo Abyss - 12/05/2025

This episode of The Viktor Wilt Show plays out like a sleep-deprived hallucination broadcast live on FM radio, with Viktor stumbling into the studio running on two molecules of caffeine, raw panic, and whatever fumes are emitted by industrial carpet shampoo, mumbling apologies to the universe as he doomscrolls through a series of cursed tabs he refuses to close because each one is destined to become a question for Lieutenant Crain during Traffic School, the only segment holding the entire show together like duct tape on a collapsing aircraft. Viktor is so exhausted he begins the show by confessing he can no longer form words, which becomes immediately obvious when he attempts to say “prize” and instead summons a linguistic creature that should never have been uttered by man. As the coffee fails to kick in, he goes feral on a Reddit thread about “things people pretend to enjoy,” ranting about LinkedIn like it personally vandalized his home, accusing corporate team-building of being a federally-designated torture method, and declaring that nobody enjoys being sung “Happy Birthday” unless they’re a full-blown sociopath. Then he spirals into weather doom, recounting reports from listener Bryce that every overpass on Highway 20 has transformed into a death-skating rink of ice and shattered dignity, urging drivers to slow down while openly admitting he hasn’t actually finished a single cup of coffee because he’s been “sipping it like a coward.” His brain then swan-dives into movie drama: Quentin Tarantino has apparently chosen violence against Paul Dano, John Waters is threatening to hate everyone who dislikes a movie Viktor fell asleep during three times, and Viktor is imagining a weekend where he finally gets to play Red Dead Redemption instead of scrubbing rock salt off every surface of his home like a Victorian chimney sweep.Every topic becomes a fever dream: air travelers calling in bomb threats to avoid parking fees, Canadians waging psychological warfare on Santa parade children with anti-Christmas signage, a guy whose pants caught fire on a subway (Viktor desperately needs to know if smoking is allowed underground), robot dogs with the flesh-colored heads of billionaires pooping NFTs like cybernetic nightmares from the ninth circle, Detroit building a RoboCop statue like it’s a civic offering to the gods, and the world’s safest countries list that has Viktor considering a spontaneous relocation to Iceland just to escape the weather report. Then JD stumbles into the studio like a chaotic gremlin, and the two of them launch into a delirious old-man complaint session, comparing slivers, gasoline bacon, and disproportionate suffering, while Viktor admits he now sees “shadow people” because he’s so tired his brain is staging a rebellion. Somewhere in this fog, Traffic School approaches, and Viktor begins growling about Local News 8 ripping off his beloved feature, summoning the spirits of former hosts like Howie and Piper who were “too chaotic to have police near them for long,” and preparing a stack of legal absurdities for Lieutenant Crain: Santa sabotage, subway arson pants, Elon Musk’s proclamation that texting while using Tesla FSD is totally fine (Viktor is convinced Crain will detonate over that one), and the eternal philosophical question: Is it illegal to spoil Christmas?By the time Peaches arrives, Viktor is fully unhinged, shuffling through the studio like a man on the verge, but suddenly jolted awake when it’s time to announce the Merry Axemas giveaway: a guitar signed by Bad Omens, Halestorm, Fall Out Boy, Sleep Theory, and Nevertel—a holy relic so powerful Peaches openly threatens to steal it and flee the state. The two of them deliver an increasingly deranged back-and-forth of song-title puns, threats of nature violence, and scheming about sounders they still haven’t finished building, while Viktor insists this is “the coolest guitar we have” and prays listeners will sign up before he collapses onto the salted lobby floor. The show ends with Viktor barely clinging to consciousness, babbling something about polar vortexes, UFOs, Detroit statues, and the moral imperative to drive slowly in winter, before finally giving in to the exhaustion demon that has been puppeteering him since 6 AM and declaring the show “not my greatest work” in the most heroic understatement of the day. It is, in every measurable way, a magnificent chaos event — a man fighting sleep, weather, news, giveaways, shadow people, billionaires’ dog-head robots, and his own collapsing spine, live on the radio. And somehow? Absolutely enthralling.

Traffic School - You Might Be Legally Required to Hit a Deer - 12/05/2025

In this deliriously unhinged episode of Traffic School Powered by The Advocates, the universe immediately collapses into pure Idaho-flavored pandemonium as Lieutenant Crain, the patron saint of last-minute dial-ins, fails to materialize in the studio and instead broadcasts from the taxpayer-funded road beast he’s steering through a blizzard like a man who has made peace with frostbite and municipal liability. Meanwhile Viktor Wilt, the only anchor keeping this show from drifting into an FM radio Bermuda Triangle, valiantly tries to wrangle topics while clinging to his brand-new Advocates-issued guitar—a mystical instrument so powerful it screams, “LEARN A CHORD, COWARD,” every time he looks at it. The chaos escalates immediately as they tackle Elon Musk’s divine proclamation that Tesla drivers can now text and drive, prompting Crain to laugh like a man who has written so many citations that irony is his love language. Then comes the Canadian Santa Parade Crisis, where anti-Christmas gremlins post signs that psychologically nuke children along the route, and Crain—ever the constitutional cowboy—reminds everyone that the First Amendment protects even joy-sabotaging weirdos.Suddenly Crazy Carl manifests from the ether like a cryptid drawn to the smell of static electricity, asking whether flashing headlights can hack traffic lights like some drive-thru wizardry. Crain informs him he’s been placebo-ing himself like a man who believes Mountain Dew can cure gout. Peaches calls in next, trembling like a frightened woodland creature, asking if he should let road-ragers flash their headlights behind him until their retinas explode; Crain calmly tells him to embrace it, for he must not exceed the speed his soul can handle. Then Amber from Mountain View Hospital arrives wielding the best question of the century: whether you’re better off hitting an animal instead of swerving, and whether that advice applies to humans. Crain answers with veteran wisdom: moose are boss-level enemies that enter your windshield like large, angry furniture; squirrels are optional collateral; humans should not be center-punched under any circumstances.As if the portal to madness has fully opened, someone else calls to recount how a state trooper tried to impound his motorcycle because his friend played Fast & Furious on the highway shoulder. Crain roasts District 5 troopers so hard they probably felt a disturbance in the Force. Viktor then dives into the political sign theft wars, accusing—very lovingly—his own dentist of moonlighting as a midnight sign bandit, tiptoeing through Idaho Falls like a fluoride-scented raccoon with a vendetta. Crain explains that most signs disappear because volunteers plant them like invasive species on private property, and business owners promptly yeet them into oblivion. More callers erupt like gremlins in a dryer: questions about traffic flow, impeding laws, slippery roads, back injuries, and why Idahoans drive 25 mph in a 35 as if every street is a funeral procession for common sense.By the end, Viktor and Crain sound like two men who have fought the Hydras of Idaho traffic law using only sarcasm and thin radio signal strength. They sign off with weary triumph, promising to return next week when, surely, the state of Idaho will invent new stupid things to do with their vehicles.

#0281 - Cuddle Clones Will Make a Plush Corpse of Your Pet - 12/04/2025

In this episode, Viktor Wilt awakens at the cursed hour of dawn, already delirious from carpet-shampoo PTSD, only to be ambushed by two angelic personal injury attorneys who materialize in his studio like Fender-bearing Christmas wizards, handing him a Telecaster so powerful it might legally qualify as a medieval weapon. From there the show instantly derails into a fever dream: Viktor becomes possessed by the existential horror of a man who has cooked the same tofu scramble every day for ten years, a culinary Groundhog Day so spiritually corrosive that Viktor contemplates throwing the tofu directly into the sun. JD summons conspiracies about a drunk raccoon acting as a government distraction tactic while an ice-volcano comet/UFO swarm barrels toward Earth, and then Viktor calmly transitions into the saga of a man who ate a Fabergé egg and now must be monitored by an officer whose entire job is to wait for evidence to… emerge. This is immediately followed by a 10-hour Megadeth cult ceremony in Tennessee that costs nearly a grand, features masterclasses taught by Mustaine himself, and somehow still feels like a Groupon for metal dads. The energy only escalates as Viktor battles the cosmic cold of Minneapolis (colder than MARS), rants about exploding Walmart camp stoves, advocates banning social media for old people, and gets dragged into a hyperlocal debate about Idaho’s small towns like he’s performing a census while sleepwalking. THEN the show goes fully feral when Jade arrives with a Christmas pickle that literally poops candy, which Viktor must taste-test like a scientist conducting unethical experiments on himself. The pickle tastes like a green Runt, the disappointment is biblical, and together they weaponize it against Josh. Viktor then doomscrolls into the existential abyss known as Cuddle Clones, discovering that thousands of people pay $199 for hyperrealistic stuffed versions of their deceased pets, sparking a horrifying vision of Christmas morning where you open a box and find the plushified corpse-energy of Rover staring into your soul. Jade suggests cloning humans, Viktor imagines sending in his own photos under the category “my pet,” and before anyone can stop it the conversation mutates into a taxidermy fever dream featuring pet tree-toppers impaled like holiday Vlad the Impaler décor. The episode ends in trembling hysterics as Viktor questions reality, morality, pet ethics, candy excretion mechanics, and the psychological consequences of looking your living dog in the eyes while holding its cursed plush doppelgänger.

#0280 - Peaches Gets PERMA-BANNED From the Seether Subreddit - 12/03/2025

In this episode, Viktor Wilt staggers into the studio like a frostbitten prophet returning from a perilous quest through Idaho’s icy tundra, mumbling about black ice and the mayoral race as though they are equal threats to humanity. The show begins with Viktor shivering into the microphone, spiritually defeated by the weather, time, existence, and also, somehow, by a raccoon in Virginia that drank itself unconscious in a liquor store bathroom. Viktor becomes irrationally jealous of the raccoon, openly fantasizing about trading lives with an inebriated trash panda just so he can get a nap. As he descends deeper into sleep-deprivation madness, he threatens to hibernate on the office’s bathroom floor but only in the women's room, because, as he explains with apocalyptic certainty, men “have no aim.”From there, the show spirals into a delirious blizzard of Florida Man crimes, raccoon rabies, and a van-life existential crisis where Viktor seems genuinely unsure whether he’s hosting a radio show or trapped in a fever dream at a KOA campground. He contemplates the horrors of carpet shampooing like he’s scrubbing the floors of an Eldritch temple, gagging on phantom cleaning-supply smells that have somehow merged with his soul.Then Peaches arrives — a harbinger of cursed energy — and detonates the episode with the revelation that he has been permanently banned from the Seether subreddit, triggering a meltdown in which the two of them roast hypothetical fedora-wearing Reddit moderators who guard the digital shrine of Seether like medieval trolls guarding a swamp. Peaches reenacts the emotional devastation of receiving a ban notification while he was peacefully playing Postal 2, and Viktor cackles like a cryptid as they unravel the six-month-old internet beef that refuses to die, haunting them like a ghost that smells like Axe body spray and Hot Pockets.The episode then takes a sudden hard-left turn into Tarantino’s Top 20 Films, hot chocolate weakening your bones, and a lengthy, deranged scientific inquiry into “Which animal could get the drunkest?” During this segment Viktor consults Wikipedia like a mad oracle, ranting about angry drunk elephants, caffeinated bees, and catnip-fueled feline rampages while Peaches contemplates whether a camel could store alcohol in its humps like biological kegs. Viktor then confesses that his girlfriend’s tiny gremlin-cat Jess becomes a violent catnip warlord who bullies his larger, gentler cat Koopa with the confidence of a drug-fueled mob boss.Somewhere between the nut-ranking segment (yes, genuinely a nut-ranking segment) and speculating on whether animals can get wasted off oranges, Viktor’s sanity fully evaporates. He begins narrating his struggle to find content as though he’s a lone survivor in the apocalypse broadcasting from a bunker with only raccoon news and a single copy of Black Hawk Down to sustain him.By the end of the show, Viktor and Peaches have completely surrendered to chaos, devolving into a delirious conversation about bathroom etiquette, screaming in East Idaho News hallways, and whether they should adopt the world’s meanest cat as a household enforcer. The episode concludes with Viktor acknowledging — proudly, almost triumphantly — that the entire morning has been “nonsense,” and that he has achieved absolutely nothing except surviving, rambling, and feeding Idaho Falls a buffet of pure, unhinged morning radio madness.

#0279 - Idaho’s Most Deranged Election PSA: ‘VOTE OR I’LL FEED YOU THE FIRE WORM' - 12/02/2025

Viktor Wilt opens the morning by apologizing to humanity for being awake, then immediately screams at the entire population of Pocatello and Idaho Falls to GO VOTE, despite absolutely not knowing the poll hours. Viktor delivers his PSA with the energy of a medieval warlord gathering soldiers: “I THINK THE POLLS OPEN AT 8. MAYBE. PROBABLY. WHO CARES. GO.” The man is one sentence away from knocking on doors personally with a megaphone.Then, as if shifting realities mid-sentence, Viktor plunges into “poor people hacks” with the raw intensity of someone who has lived off Crockpot leftovers for entire geological epochs. He praises rotisserie chickens like sacred talismans. He vows to read someday, maybe, possibly, theoretically. He reveals the state of his house like a man confessing to a priest who has already given up on him.Just when listeners start to breathe again, Viktor detonates the vibe entirely with a 2012 Florida Man cockroach-eating death saga that absolutely no one needed before breakfast. He describes it in extreme HD detail, gleefully traumatizing Idaho at 8 a.m. because, as he claims, it’s his “duty as a radio host.” Viktor reads this horror story like he’s summoning a demon from a dusty grimoire.And then, fueled by disgust and caffeine, he unleashes a furious prophecy about AI voters, roasting anyone who asks ChatGPT who to vote for. Viktor becomes the self-appointed guardian of democracy, warning Idaho that AI is basically just a digital raccoon rummaging through Facebook comments.Before the people of East Idaho can recover, Viktor barrels headfirst into the Merry Christmas vs. Happy Holidays battlefield, calling out the entire country for losing their minds every December. Peaches, from the corner, growls like a festive goblin of anti-cheer, while Viktor begs society to please stop fighting over greetings like feral holiday raccoons.Then the universe cracks open.Because Josh Tyler invades the studio carrying a bag of food-based war crimes: limp liquid-filled gummy pickles, spicy freeze-dried barnyard Skittles that look like cursed livestock pellets, and a two-foot-long fire worm designed specifically to hurt humans.Viktor, Jade, and Josh proceed to taste-test these horrors live on air like three men reenacting Fear Factor in a badly lit Idaho radio booth. Viktor dry-heaves into a garbage can. Jade contemplates his life choices. Josh cheerfully escalates the chaos. Together, they achieve a new tax bracket of suffering.As if that’s not enough, Viktor casually adds in stories about: • a grandma being yeeted into the ocean at a destination wedding, • a kid being eaten by lions, • a bear living in someone’s crawlspace like an unpaid roommate, • and the general collapse of society.By the end, Viktor’s energy disintegrates into pure existential exhaustion. He begs listeners to vote. He tells them to say Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays or even screw you — whatever — just stop being weird about it. He ends the show sounding like a prophet who has seen too much.This isn’t an episode.This is the Book of Revelation: East Idaho Edition. This is Viktor Wilt’s personal holiday-season breakdown broadcast live for everyone’s entertainment. This is Idaho radio at its most unhinged, and Viktor is the feral wizard at the center of it.10/10. A masterpiece of chaos.

#0278 - I Walked from Idaho Falls to Poky in a Fever Dream to Buy a Ruby Red Squirt - 12/01/2025

In today’s episode of The Victor Wilt Show, we descend into a full-blown Monday-shaped fever dream where Viktor — half-alive, half-coffee, and fully spiritually concussed from Thanksgiving flu rot — tries to claw his way through reality while ranting about bed-and-breakfast nightmares, time-traveling to the filth-soaked 1800s, and people willingly getting beach sand involved in… activities, all while the universe pelts him with $9 Vegas toothpaste PTSD. He recounts YouTube binge sessions about casino scams engineered by feral geniuses with pocket gizmos from the cursed 1980s, then abruptly launches into a prophetic monologue about tourist-draining doom spirals in Vegas, the rise of the Texas Anthrax Triangle™, and toilet bears ripping citizens apart in Japan like a real-time survival horror DLC. Meanwhile, he is plagued by apocalyptic insomnia dreams where he walks from Idaho Falls to Pokey through abandoned houses full of emotional debris and forbidden knickknacks while gas stations price-gouge him for ruby red Squirt like it’s black-market plutonium. Then Peaches arrives and the show mutates further: lost geckos, speaker mountains, the Wall of Sound that shattered his spine, a present that took four hours to wrap because physics is a lie, and a pigeon tattoo that somehow becomes a spiritual event. From there, the episode swan-dives into firefighters in Florida who “hazed” a new guy by pantsing, whipping, robbing, dragging, and waterboarding him — and Viktor cheerfully notes that at least he hasn’t been waterboarded today, so things are looking up. He then spirals through rock news, Poppy vs. Evanescence social-media warfare, a catastrophic schedule of concerts he cannot afford unless he wins the cosmic lottery, and Yellowstone spinoffs multiplying like unattended sourdough. But nothing compares to the moment he reads about a caller who found a dead body and, instead of contacting the police, phoned a morning show to chit-chat about it — prompting Viktor to beg listeners to never, EVER call him with corpses unless it concerns Lieutenant Crain. The episode ends with a chaotic sermon on bouncy houses taking flight Wizard-of-Oz style, Cyber Monday shame, gecko heists at midnight, and Viktor trudging toward the dreaded Monday meeting like a man walking into his own execution while blasting Closer and wondering why the lights can’t just be as dark as his soul. In short: an absolute carnival of flu haze, dream logic, feral wildlife, questionable humanity, retail trauma, and the inescapable horror that it is, in fact, Monday.

#0277 - I Asked ChatGPT About Liquified Cremation and Now I Need Holy Water - 11/28/2025

From the moment Viktor Wilt (spelled correctly as always, lest the gods strike us down) drags himself on-air sounding like a medieval plague doctor who lost the handbook, the episode spirals into a post-Thanksgiving delirium where time, space, and professionalism dissolve faster than the effluent from Idaho’s liquified cremations. We open on Viktor, flu-ravaged and spiritually exhausted, broadcasting live from the seventh circle of “Why am I at work?” torment while the ghost of his appetite floats somewhere above him wheezing. He attempts to talk about Black Friday lines, but it quickly devolves into him doom-scrolling Facebook like a Victorian chimney sweep trying to decode modern human rituals.Every store in Idaho apparently has a line so long it could qualify as a national park, and yet Viktor himself would rather be launched into the sun than stand in one. Then he goes on a feral rant about Jackson Hole, where apparently the only thing you can do is stare at overpriced elk-themed souvenirs and wonder where your paycheck went. He describes his own Thanksgiving as a battle royale between the flu, an Instant Pot turkey breast, and his own crumbling will to live. Then comes the Stranger Things rant: Viktor becomes a full-fledged prophet of “TURN OFF YOUR TRUMOTION, YOU SHEATHED SWINES,” channeling Ross Duffer as he rebukes every grandmother in America for watching prestige TV in Sports Mode.From there, the man becomes possessed by the spirit of Weird News Goblin #4. He dives into stories of houses in Santa Cruz that cost $30k but require paying roughly the GDP of a developing nation in monthly lot rent, a boulder that nearly Thanos-snapped a family in Leavenworth, and the medically sanctioned tradition of taking a scientific “Fart Walk” after Thanksgiving dinner. He then discovers a $41,000 human-washing pod from Japan, which he describes with the reverence of a man who has absolutely considered buying one at 3 a.m. His freak-news mania powers up further as he discusses Florida ponds (a.k.a. gator-infested death traps), the Florida Man HBO series, and the eternal question: “Why would anyone fish in Florida unless they hate having limbs?”Suddenly, he decides to resurrect Lieutenant Crain’s segment by begging listeners—literally begging—for “Ask Me Almost Anything.” The desperation is palpable. It is edible. It is aromatic. Callers actually come through (!!), asking existential questions like “Did you find your ID?” and “Will you ever front a band again?” This launches Viktor into a nostalgic odyssey through Ozzfest 1997, Ninja Turtles concerts, and the divine chaos of the late Dr. Seuss band, while callers hype him up like he’s about to headline Coachella with a broken amp and a dream. Then a guy asks about the most underrated Thanksgiving food, throwing Viktor into a philosophical crisis over rolls, stuffing, and his girlfriend's emergency Instant Pot turkey.After that brief moment of human connection, he catapults back into madness: he talks about Xbox Crocs (a war crime), a Circle K Beef Jerky Heist involving a man who claims an AI microchip in his neck told him to steal, Listeria cheese, and Facebook’s internal study confirming that Facebook is, in fact, a psychological grenade with a touchscreen. But the pinnacle of chaos comes when he live-reads a ChatGPT response about liquified cremation waste being flushed into Idaho's sewer systems like some sort of mortuary broth. Viktor reacts as any sane individual would—by shrugging and saying “Yeah fine put it in the toilet."By the end, Viktor is delirious, alone in the office, convinced Peaches might be a mythological creature who no longer exists, shuffling through news articles with the brainpower of a raccoon who stole NyQuil. He closes the show as a man spiritually halfway through a workday but physically somewhere between life and a fever-induced vision quest.In short:It is a heroic saga of influenza, Black Friday capitalism, digestive sciences, Florida survival tips, listener therapy sessions, forbidden Crocs, gator warnings, and legally sanctioned corpse broth—all channeled through a radio host clawing his way toward the weekend.

#0276 - Back From The Dead - 11/26/2025

 In this week’s episode, Viktor Wilt crawls out of a five-day flu-induced purgatory like a Victorian chimney ghost resurrected by expired DayQuil, staggering into the studio at a crispy 80% health while recounting how the Trans-Siberian Orchestra fog machine nearly murdered his lungs and launched him into a delirious dimension where time, social media, and the concept of “days” dissolved into soup; he describes chest pains so violent they made him see the face of God, nightmares so foul they can only be legally shown to prisoners at Guantánamo, and a fever so intense it turned his mattress into a human crockpot while he lost track of reality, Thanksgiving, and maybe his own name; then Viktor swerves into a diplomatic-but-not-really ceasefire with Mike Nelson, accepts a lukewarm Facebook comment apology like it’s the Treaty of Versailles, declares his own podcast realer-than-real, and proceeds to wage war on the Transportation Secretary for trying to ban pajamas on airplanes, screaming into the void about the sanctity of comfort-wear as though the nation itself depended on it; he rebukes society, the election, the mayor’s race, and the universe while scrolling with the brain fog of a man actively fighting three dementors, before spiraling into a dating-thread rabbit hole featuring widows, bird-phobics, sour-cream-foil fanatics, jugglers, and absolute psychopaths demanding potato-salad proficiency, all while Viktor mutters that he himself likes kittens and not much else besides; he confesses to watching Borat, The Conjuring, and Ari Aster’s Eddington while whispering “I think I have COVID again” into the darkness like a Victorian invalid, then turns to strange news about deranged texters sending 159,000 messages, kids being arrested in Florida for kicking doors like discount SWAT teams, West Virginia roommates shooting each other over rat-sniping rights, Salt Lake City becoming the Thunderdome of Thanksgiving toilet failures, and a Fresno couple trying to heat their home with a barbecue grill because apparently carbon monoxide warnings are only optional; Peaches returns mid-apocalypse, also half-dead with the same plague, and the two of them limp through delirious small talk about nightmares, bedsores-that-aren’t-bedsores, beard trims that can’t happen under masks, and the absolute cosmic dread of eating turkey while sick; finally, Viktor, running on fumes, vitamins, and sheer spite, tries to preview Stranger Things season 5 while spontaneously sweating through his clothes like a possessed rotisserie chicken, before closing the episode by urging listeners not to die, not to fight their families, not to heat their homes with grills, and not to clog the toilet on Brown Friday, promising to return on Black Friday hopefully alive, hydrated, and only slightly haunted by the ghosts of the five lost fever days that devoured his soul.

#0275 - Trans-Siberian Orchestra Cooked My Lungs - 11/21/2025

In this episode, Viktor Wilt descends onto the airwaves like a gremlin who slept inside a fog machine and woke up with his lungs coated in the spiritual residue of a Christmas metal opera. He opens the show already convinced he’s dying, maybe from the Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert, maybe from a rogue Idaho Falls weather spirit, maybe from inhaling 47 metric tons of arena fog — who can say? All we know is his chest is beefing with him, his voice is betraying him, and he has 10 billion chores to do this weekend, which is mathematically impossible but spiritually accurate.As Viktor fights for survival, he mourns the death of good news topics, resulting in him desperately digging through the online ether, unearthing relics like: “What was seeing The Blair Witch Project in 1999 like?” which spirals him into reminiscing about a time when movies scared people but he personally was built different, forged in darkness, unshaken except by Resident Evil 7 VR, which nearly sent him to an early grave because of imaginary stairs.Meanwhile East Idaho is being haunted by exactly 27 ghosts at the Yellowstone Hotel, and the Ghost Adventures crew finally breached its cursed upper floor after two years of negotiating with probably both the owners and the dead. Viktor treats this with the seriousness it deserves (ghosts = awesome, NDA = suspicious, potential hauntings = vibes).Then comes the Freak News segment, which immediately collapses into Florida reports of a naked man claiming to be doing a TikTok challenge in 36-degree weather. Viktor, in his weakened state, can only sigh in spiritual exhaustion at humanity. And yet, he trudges on, coughing, wheezing, begging for ibuprofen like it’s a forbidden artifact.Then Jade bursts into the studio with the precise chaotic energy of a raccoon flung into a trampoline park, and the two of them begin recounting the Trans-Siberian Orchestra experience like trauma survivors describing a pyrotechnic Christmas war zone. They discuss the fog machines that attempted to assassinate an audience member, the fire that came in every color known and unknown, drones strafing the arena with lights, and the metal riffs so crushing they liquefied children’s minds. Jade keeps saying “fire” like a Beavis and Butt-Head soundboard that achieved sentience. Viktor keeps trying not to hack up a lung. Together they are unstoppable.They also roast Josh, who raised $3,000 for the Ronald McDonald House but is still Josh, so Viktor refused to go see him in the morning out of sheer principle.By the end, Viktor is staggering into the outro like a wounded soldier crawling through cinematic battlefield smoke, urging listeners to “try not to be an irritant,” relaying the tale of a woman whose husband is such a catastrophically annoying sports-watcher that it has destroyed her will to live. Viktor recommends “dump him” as casually as one might recommend trying a new shampoo.And then, like a fog-shrouded Christmas phoenix, he signs off — swearing he’ll return for more mayhem later, assuming he isn’t killed by phantoms, fog, Florida men, or domestic irritants.

Traffic School - Seven-Lane Side Quest to Metallica: Carl Attempts Vehicular Parkour - 11/21/2025

This episode doesn’t begin so much as it erupts—a chaos gremlin of a morning where Viktor shuffles into the studio sounding like he smoked an entire Trans-Siberian Orchestra fog machine the night before. His chest hurts, his voice is crunchy, and he’s 80% sure he either caught a virus or is actively allergic to lasers. Meanwhile, Lieutenant Crane walks in fresh from a predawn Idaho Transportation Department meeting where they discussed—very calmly, presumably—the art of reducing public complaining. He’s still thawing out from the cold, foggy, murder-movie morning weather while Viktor keeps whining like he’s the standout guest on WebMD’s Greatest Hits.Before they can finish arguing about Christmas music launching before Thanksgiving like a sonic holiday ambush, callers start assaulting the phone lines with problems that swing wildly between “mildly concerning” and “should probably involve an attorney.”CALLER #1: Jason, the certified Speed Goblin, demands to know how often radar guns get calibrated because he insists his governor taps out at 105 and therefore his 106-mph ticket MUST be a lie. Crane explains tuning forks, calibration cycles, and factory settings like a patient dad explaining why you can’t put fireworks in the microwave, while Viktor tries not to cough up the ghost of TSO’s fog machine. Jason casually admits he was blasting past blocked exits like he was speedrunning his own felony, laughed about being flipped off 13 times, and then ends the call with: “I only go 20 over now.” A true scholar.CALLER #2: Kizzy arrives with the energy of a woman who has SEEN THINGS. She recounts a saga involving lost power steering, a melted wrist brace (!), and the revelation that she is missing three bones in her wrist because she was RUN OVER FIVE YEARS AGO. Crane—professionally, respectfully—jokes whether those bones disappeared along with her power steering. Viktor audibly cringes into another coughing fit. The whole thing sounds like the plot of a gritty indie film called The Wrist and the Fog Line. Kizzy wants to know whether the officer who detained her for two and a half hours was justified, and Crane basically says, “Ma’am, legally? I have discretion. Personally? That cop should’ve used common sense and maybe some empathy.” And then, in the most chaotic twist, he adds, “But if you want harassment…we know some guys,” which Viktor cackles at like a gremlin.ENTER CRAZY CARL: Humanity’s most chaotic neutral. He calls in polishing aluminum—whatever that means—and immediately asks: “So uh… when does speeding become a FELONY?” Like he’s shopping for a new hobby. Crane explains that you need to actually maim someone for that, which Carl reacts to like someone just told him the Wendy’s Frosty machine is broken. Then Carl casually describes doing a seven-lane lane change on a California freeway trying to get to a Metallica concert—his wife screaming, cars scattering, his heart singing like a Norse god with a learner’s permit. The man talks like he believes traffic laws are optional suggestions created by cowards.CALLER #4: Bennett, who has one simple question: why the hell is lane splitting legal anywhere? Viktor and Crane immediately roast California for hating motorcyclists and/or humanity in general. Bennett sips a White Claw during the call, mid-rant, creating the first known instance of brunch rage driving philosophy.CALLER #5: Kiersey beams in with sunshine energy so violently cheerful that even Viktor, who’s dying, is like “I wish I had that enthusiasm.” She asks about the new diamond interchange in Rexburg—specifically, whether you can turn right on red. Crane hits her with the sternest, most spiritually disappointed “NO” about the red arrow. Viktor cheers for rule followers. Somewhere, the FCC applauds.CALLER #6: Another caller double-checks the diamond interchange rules—cue Crane repeating “red arrow means NO” like he’s teaching kindergarten but with more existential dread. She demands officers be stationed there to stop rule breakers immediately. Crane and Viktor laugh because BLESS HER HEART she is clearly the patron saint of Traffic Citations.CALLER #7: Tate, who is stuck at the Rigby stoplight of doom—a cursed traffic signal that apparently operates on vibes instead of sensors. He asks how long he has to wait before he can run it. Crane explains the law, Viktor moans about being trapped by lights that never change, and Tate confesses he flashes his brights at it like he’s trying to flirt with a malfunctioning robot.Between calls, Viktor tattles on an Idaho Falls police officer for touching the white line and Crane roasts him for being the neighborhood snitch. The two of them spiral into a back-and-forth about lane integrity, fog lines, and how Viktor is exactly the guy who would take a screenshot of your expired tabs and email your mother.The whole episode plays out like a surreal small-town radio circus where every caller arrives with a confession, a complaint, or an unhinged driving story that absolutely should have resulted in someone losing their license—but instead becomes a communal therapy session with jokes, laughter, and the faint sound of Viktor wheezing in the background.By the end, the episode isn’t a traffic advice show. It’s a full-blown chaotic highway cult meeting—complete with lasers, wrist injuries, outlaw lane-changing, White Claw philosophy, vigilante tattling, and a lieutenant who oscillates between public servant and stand-up comedian. It is pure, law-encrusted, festive, fog-enhanced insanity—and easily one of the most unhinged installments of Traffic School yet.

#0274 - Jade and Josh Made an AI Christmas Song About Me and It Ruined My Will to Live (But Also It Slaps) - 11/20/2025

In today’s episode of The Viktor Wilt Show, Viktor awakens with the psychic energy of a man whose brain has been replaced overnight with a malfunctioning Roomba, immediately declaring war on his own skull before doom-scrolling a forum about “Things That Will Someday Be Illegal,” which sends him into a philosophical tailspin so violent it nearly knocks every neuron in his Idaho-baked cerebrum unconscious. He ricochets from health insurance rage to algorithmic psychological warfare, screaming into the void about Facebook rage-bait like he’s trying to exorcise Mark Zuckerberg from his phone with a pocket Bible and a half-charged vape. Then he swerves into gambling ads, family vlog gremlins, and AI lies like he’s NASCAR-drifting around society’s greatest failures on bald tires.Before the audience can breathe, Viktor detonates a 40-minute concert calendar so massive and deranged it sounds like a fever dream written by a caffeinated Live Nation intern trapped in a broom closet. The man lists every band on Earth coming within a 500-mile radius, from Cattle Decapitation to Silverstein to Ghost to Electric Callboy, as if he’s reading the ancient scrolls of an end-times prophecy where Ticketmaster is the final boss. Then he laments needing to win the lottery for hotel rooms, which is the most Idaho Falls thing ever uttered on terrestrial radio.Then we violently swerve into East Idaho Eats, where Viktor discovers — live, on air — that there is a brand-new McDonald’s near his house that he, a grown adult, had absolutely no idea existed. He reacts like a Victorian child discovering electricity for the first time. Then he unravels emotionally over cookie bowls full of ice cream like he’s describing forbidden celestial nectar.Just as the vibes stabilize, Viktor whiplashes into a PSA about a Pennsylvania man who got shot by his own dog with a shotgun, cackling like a goblin while recounting how Millie repeatedly assaults his groin with the accuracy and speed of a UFC bantamweight.From there we descend into scalper rage — a full-on Old Testament meltdown — as Viktor demands the U.S. government ban ticket reselling for profit, daylight savings, and presumably also Dave Ramsey, who enters the chat later and gets absolutely bodied. Viktor accuses Ramsey of being a joy-hating rice-and-beans demon haunting America’s finances like some budget-obsessed ghoul perched on people’s chests at night whispering, “Stop buying lattes.”Then we detonate into WACKY NEWS, where Viktor rants about $100M mansions that look like drywall mausoleums, a Taco Bell designer belt that literally holds a taco (which he mourns like a lost child), Canadian coyotes entering their villain era, and an elderly treasure hunter being airlifted out of the mountains after ignoring every safety guideline known to man in pursuit of a knockoff Forrest Fenn chest.But wait — the episode THEN mutates into a full-scale Christmas-themed radio-station hostage situation when Peaches arrives and unleashes BLOB THE ELF, the cursed Christmas entity forged in AI hellfire to torment Viktor personally. They play an AI Christmas song that slanders him with accusations of frosting-covered chaos, glittery weekend dresses, and vibrating North Pole drama. Viktor spirals while Peaches giggles like a gremlin. Then they play “Jade Davis Smells,” an EDM banger composed entirely of the phrase Jade Davis Smells — a track so repetitive it could replace waterboarding as an interrogation method.As Viktor is forced to confront the musical horrors his coworkers have wrought, the episode mutates again — now into paranormal TV commentary, Bar Rescue lore, and local ghost-hunting tourism — before Viktor finally snaps, spiritually floats above the studio, and gives in to the cosmic absurdity of his life as a man trapped between Idaho, Christmas, AI goblins, and unhinged radio programming beef.In conclusion:This episode wasn’t a radio show.It was a psychological obstacle course, a Yuletide fever dream, and a descent into Idaho-flavored entropy powered entirely by Viktor Wilt’s astonishing ability to get blindsided by McDonald’s construction projects.

#0273 - I Saw a Victorian Ghost Speed-Walking Out of a SLC, UT Parking Garage - 11/19/2025

In this delirious, dawn-cursed episode of The Viktor Wilt Show, our beloved morning gremlin awakens in a fog of instant-coffee tar and residual nightmares, only to immediately hurl listeners into the paranormal chaos gripping Pocatello. Ghost Adventures has descended upon the Yellowstone Hotel like a caffeinated swarm of goth hornets, and Viktor spends the opening minutes vibrating with the energy of a Victorian child who just heard Santa crash through the window. He pivots directly into plotting a viewing party for Lieutenant Crain’s long-awaited Family Feud appearance—a moment he discusses as though Steve Harvey himself is the oracle of fate and possibly the final boss of East Idaho.From there, Viktor attempts to educate listeners on “scientific myths,” but in practice it becomes a psychological freefall. He roasts the jellyfish-pee myth (insinuating that someone out there has a very suspicious kink), admits birds freak him out because they are “dinosaurs with anxiety,” and spirals into a full betrayal arc about why his childhood textbooks lied about blue blood. He then lurches—without transition—into browsing MSG prices on Amazon like he’s preparing for a sodium black-market deal.Next, Viktor introduces listeners to Japan’s lowest-rated toy train: a transparent, deranged, EDM-blasting gear-storm that spins like it’s summoning a rave demon. Viktor wants it in his home studio. He says this with sincerity. This is concerning.Then he gets hyperfixated on the possibility of Mount Rainier exploding. He reassures himself his daughter is probably safe unless the mountain decides to do a casual mud-apocalypse, at which point “whoops.”Suddenly, he’s back on the warpath about Christmas music—announcing that yesterday’s show titled I Declare Eternal Yuletide Dominance is getting big numbers and reaffirming that he and Josh are officially the Kings of Christmas in East Idaho. He proceeds to drag not one but TWO Brads: Brad Royle (for audio-processing critiques) and Brad Barlow (for suggesting Viktor was being “mean” online). Viktor responds by doubling down on the Yuletide Crown like a man possessed by the Ghost of Christmas Petty.Then he tells you about a 120-pound python that plummeted through a Malaysian bathroom ceiling, forcing listeners to imagine fatal snake rain while he reminisces about Rexburg’s legendary snake house, where thousands of snakes turned the walls into a biological lava lamp. He is both horrified and delighted.Thanksgiving drama enters the chat next: a man named Craig—possibly the Antichrist of potlucks—insults the dishes, brings the wrong food, arrives late, complains about the sink, and declares her food inferior. Viktor advises a firm, “No, you’re not coming to Thanksgiving, fool.”He then tangos with the emerging horror of AI country songs topping Billboard charts for the low, low price of “$3,000 in iTunes purchases,” gently implying that the music industry is a claw machine rigged by goblins.FREAK NEWS™ follows: • Florida woman doing 107 MPH to get pizza (a queen) • Illinois man waving a rifle to “attract women” (a cryptid) • A UK school banning K-pop demon hunter songs (a prophecy of local Idaho outrage)Then Viktor conjures AI-generated fake news live on air, resulting in hovering potato rings and 300 paragliding alpacas terrorizing Ammon. It’s somehow less chaotic than the real news he reads.Suddenly—POW—he saw a ghost in Salt Lake City. A Victorian-looking woman walked rapidly from a parking garage with pale skin and determination, vanished instantly, and convinced Viktor she was undead or at least extremely committed to method acting.He closes with a woman whose driveway was stolen by a rogue backhoe brigade, mourns the cost of concrete, and begs the universe for the week to end already.

#0272 - I Declare Eternal Yuletide Dominance - 11/18/2025

In today’s episode, Viktor Wilt descends into a technicolor mental labyrinth where dream logic and real-life grievances fuse into a radio-fueled fever hallucination. It begins with him realizing, with the confidence of a man who’s seen the end times, that it is only Tuesday — a revelation so spiritually devastating it triggers a saga of dreams featuring Asking Alexandria trashing his imaginary glass-box bathroom in the middle of the living room while pro wrestlers and horror icons loom nearby like bored demigods waiting to take selfies. His subconscious immediately fires him from his job for “having a bad attitude,” which somehow forces him to keep working anyway while dream-Starr marches around fully bald and deeply judgmental.From there, Viktor ricochets into a full-blown manifesto on optional life tasks: declining invitations without inventing a 3-act alibi, ignoring doorbells like they’re demonic summons, using the “good china” because life is meaningless, and choosing Thanksgiving pizza over ancestral turkey trauma. He spirals through a therapeutic rant about dropping toxic people, ditching pointless meetings, and calling in sick because your brain turned into a hot, simmering soup. Every example threatens to send his blood pressure into the stratosphere, but don’t worry — he’s also trying not to have a meltdown today. Unsuccessfully.Peaches joins the chaos just in time to discuss a French man who found $800,000 in gold in his backyard and was promptly told to give it back, leading Viktor to offer the extremely ethical advice to never tell anyone if you dig treasure up — just quietly pawn it off like a gremlin. This transitions beautifully (and by beautifully we mean lawlessly) into diamond rants, divorce advice, lab-grown gem evangelism, and a gentle reminder that the plasma industry is basically a medieval blood bazaar with swipeable debit cards.Then things get airborne — literally — when Viktor gleefully reports on a pilot who had to emergency-land after a mushroom-fueled, 40-hours-no-sleep mental decline, which Peaches helpfully points out might not be ideal for someone flying a steel bird full of humans. Viktor admits that he himself hates flying, mainly because everyone involved might be unhinged. Moments later, Crazy Jay calls in to report he once stayed awake for four days straight, confirming Viktor’s suspicion that half his listeners are running on zero sleep and pure cursed energy.Just when you think the episode can’t get any more feral, Viktor leaps into the Christmas Blood War™ — an ecstatic, chest-thumping tirade about how Classy97’s Christmas playlist is a precision-engineered masterpiece of holiday supremacy, while a rival station (run by a man who inexplicably blocked Viktor on social media like a cowardly elf) launched their Christmas music early in an act of sheer embarassment. Viktor responds by declaring himself and Josh the Kings of Christmas, exiling the rival programmer from the Holiday Kingdom and promising that Classy’s playlist is so superior it will spiritually cleanse your home and possibly fix your heating bill.Finally, after denouncing lottery winners, rejoicing in listener insomnia, ranking local stations, ranting about Ozempic, and recalling video AIs that turned him into a dripping burger demon, Viktor attempts to bring the show back into reality — but at this point reality has fled the building.The episode ends exactly the way any Viktor Wilt episode should: with him fully convinced he’s destroying both his rivals and his blood pressure in equal measure, Peaches feeding him chaos like a gremlin tossing gasoline into a bonfire, and Christmas music looming like a radioactive mist over Idaho.

#0271 - I Didn’t Choose the Bug Rancher Life - It Crawled Into My House Uninvited - 11/17/2025

This episode detonates with Viktor staggering into the studio like a man who’s been spiritually waterboarded by his own household. Before he can even say “good morning,” he’s knee-deep in recounting the nocturnal carnage that erupted in his bedroom: Koopa perched by his skull like a gargoyle freshly summoned from a forbidden tome, unleashing a low-frequency rumble that sounded like someone dragging a wicker chair across a metal floor. Then Jess—whose relationship with Koopa is held together by equal parts hatred and poor impulse control—launches herself across the mattress with the velocity of a misfired firework, igniting a feline melee directly atop Viktor and Becca’s unconscious forms. Claws, fur, hissing, the unmistakable thudding of something demonic using your ribcage as a trampoline—it’s all there.Viktor barely has time to register that he’s awake before Lucy begins producing the universally recognized preamble to disaster: the wet, rhythmic throat convulsions of a cat preparing to unleash a biological weapon. In a burst of misplaced optimism, Viktor attempts to relocate her. What he actually achieves is transforming his bedroom into a Jackson Pollock painting created exclusively with digestive fluids. The description of the vomit’s trajectory alone could earn him a Pulitzer: a shimmering arc of hot, chunky cat contents sprayed across the bed, the floor, the antique bench, the walls, and, for reasons known only to Lucifer himself, down the ornate grooves of a decorative mirror frame, where it seeped into the wood like some cursed resin that future archeologists will discover and assume was part of a sacrificial ritual.Now Viktor, in full gremlin mode, is stomping around the house at 10:30 PM wielding paper towels and profanity, scrubbing half-digested kibble from surfaces that no mortal cleaning product was designed to treat. The mirror alone becomes a multi-stage archaeological dig, requiring excavations into tiny wood-carved caverns that appear to have been specifically designed to preserve cat bile for centuries.By the time the room no longer resembles the aftermath of an exorcism, it’s nearly midnight, Viktor’s adrenaline has evaporated, and his last remaining brain cells are begging for mercy. Morning punishes him further with the discovery that his keys—his precious, livelihood-enabling keys—were left in the front door like an invitation to burglars, raccoons, missionaries, and any other miscellaneous entities that roam the night.But the grotesquery has only warmed up.The episode spirals into Viktor reliving the trauma of surströmming, the fermented fish that smells like someone bottled the breath of a corpse who died while eating another corpse. The way he describes it, opening that can was like splitting open a portal to a parallel dimension where everything is moist, rancid, and slightly warm. He recounts how the odor seeped through trash bags, out of dumpsters, across parking lots, and into his soul, clinging to his nostrils with the determination of a barnacle. Stewart, in an act of friendship-adjacent psychological warfare, sends Viktor a video that basically reactivates his sense-memory PTSD on-air.Yet even this olfactory apocalypse pales in comparison to what comes next: Viktor’s forced metamorphosis into a cricket farmer.After an unnamed in-law performs the unholiest of birthday crimes—bestowing a surprise lizard upon a child without warning anyone—Viktor ends up racing home with the reptile perched in a cupholder like a tiny, scaly hostage. Sweating profusely, blasting the heater directly onto it as if trying to incubate a dragon egg, he arrives only to discover the “lizard kit” is actually a habitat designed for either a tarantula or a small demon. This sparks a frantic late-night pet-store dash where Viktor is informed he will need a far more elaborate enclosure, multiple heat sources, thermometers, substrate, décor, and—oh yes—live crickets.Crickets, which require their own miniature ecosystem.Crickets, which must be fed, watered, and housed like tiny, chirping aristocrats.Crickets, which Viktor now tends to with the exhaustion of a man who did not consent to being a Bug Rancher, yet now stands ankle-deep in containers of wriggling insect kibble, rearranging water gel pods while muttering about destiny and betrayal.His house is now a multi-species bio-dome of incompatible creatures, each intent on making his life measurably worse. The lizard enclosure must be heated, misted, timed, adjusted. The crickets must be kept alive long enough to be fed to the lizard in a gruesome daily reenactment of “Circle of Life: Budget Edition.” Meanwhile, the cats continue treating every horizontal surface as a launchpad, a wrestling ring, and occasionally a vomit testing site.When Viktor attempts one final night of sleep before Monday, the animals form an unspoken union. They agree—telepathically, one assumes—that they will not allow him to rest. Another eruption of fur, screeching, bodily fluids, and nocturnal nonsense occurs. By Sunday night, the man is so exhausted he appears to have forgotten how to blink.He arrives at work less “Monday Viktor” and more “cryptid discovered behind a truck stop,” muttering about inversion pollution, failed concerts, social burnout, surprise pets, disappearing keys, and the general collapse of civilization.This episode isn’t just unhinged—it’s a grotesque tapestry of bodily emissions, bug husbandry, psychological erosion, and a narrator clinging to sanity by dental floss. If you’ve ever wanted to listen to a man recount a weekend so cursed it should be studied by scientists, this is the one.

#0270 - This Episode Has the Same Energy as Screaming Into a Microwave - 11/14/2025

In this deliriously overstuffed episode, Viktor staggers into the studio at an hour no mortal should be awake, immediately cracking open an energy drink like he’s about to reenact a Viking battle instead of host a radio show. Within seconds, he’s confessing that the week has pulverized him spiritually, mentally, and possibly dimensionally, thanks to a fever dream where he wandered a bootleg reality populated by knockoff versions of his loved ones who behaved like NPCs with corrupted dialogue files. Naturally, this launches Viktor into a full autopsy of AI weirdness: the Peaches “Pizza” and “Peach Fest” abominations, uncanny facsimile grandmas reading bedtime stories from beyond the grave, and the existential dread of imagining an AI Viktor with a perfect, flub-free voice—which, as he admits, would probably steal his job while looking suspiciously enthusiastic about it.Then Gary calls in, like a prophet from a parallel universe where privacy still exists, to rant about smartphones turning children into socially dehydrated goblins, misinformation rotting public intellect, and the general unraveling of society. Viktor, sensing that Gary’s vibes match the week he’s already enduring, dives into a mutual therapy session involving cell phones, generational decay, AI obliterating careers, and the crushing realization that half the voices we hear in commercials aren’t even attached to real humans. This spirals into Viktor joking—but not really joking—about whether this entire broadcast is just a simulation and he is, in fact, merely a digital puppet reading prewritten lines.Before the world can process that, Viktor derails the show with a news story starring a confused deer launching itself through a school cafeteria window like a four-legged missile, slipping around hallways like Bambi on ice, terrifying students, and forcing administrators to herd it toward the exit like medieval villagers dealing with a possessed goat. He then follows that with a feverishly delighted retelling of Oregon’s legendary exploding whale—complete with chunks of airborne blubber turning spectators into unwilling participants in the world’s worst seafood festival. Viktor recounts this with the giddy reverence of a historian who wishes he had been there, umbrella in hand.In between existential spirals, Viktor also unpacks a study warning parents about AI toys casually offering kids tips on finding knives and matches, recounts an Indiana school giving students tickets for saying “six, seven” (thus guaranteeing the phrase becomes immortal), and reports on a fake airline captain who just waltzed into a cockpit and flew hundreds of passengers using the confidence of a man who learned everything from Microsoft Flight Simulator. Viktor toggles between horror and admiration, wondering aloud whether society is collapsing or simply entering its most entertaining phase.He rounds things out by doom-scrolling job lists to determine which careers AI won’t vaporize, contemplates selling his own voice to ElevenLabs for the financial equivalent of spilled pennies, debates the ethics of letting Michael Caine host Jank Show, and brainstorms an “infinite money glitch” where he licenses his voice clone, writes AI-generated scripts for his own program, and gets paid to replace himself with himself. Finally, exhausted yet weirdly invigorated, Viktor announces he may flee the country to metal-detect treasure in England like a gremlin archaeologist, all while half-joking that he might skip tomorrow’s concert entirely if the weight of existence crushes him before he gets out the door.By the end, it’s not just a radio show—it’s a spiraling odyssey of sleep deprivation, technological dread, wildlife catastrophe, historical carnage, and Viktor attempting to stave off a complete psychological implosion using humor, speculation, and the faint hope that tomorrow will finally be less weird.

Traffic School - The Single Clap Heard ‘Round Idaho - 11/14/2025

In this landmark episode of Traffic School, the universe split open like a malfunctioning piñata as Viktor Wilt and Lieutenant Crain reconvened after Crain’s mysterious week-long vanishing act, allegedly involving a river, a warm camper, and the type of marital bliss that feels suspiciously like witness protection. The show immediately spirals into pandemonium when Crazy Jay calls in to congratulate Victor for still being alive — a statement that, somehow, is not sarcastic. Jay proceeds to describe his coma experience with the emotional tone of a man discussing breadsticks at Olive Garden, setting the tone for the day: everyone has questions, and none of them should be answered by licensed adults.Before Viktor can blink, another caller materializes sounding like a broken fax machine trapped in a llama stampede, kicking off a segment that can only be described as “public access fever hallucination.” Viktor attempts patience, fails instantly, threatens to combust, and awards the caller the ceremonial Lonely Single Clap of Disappointment.Moments later, the duo pivots seamlessly into a full-scale cultural reevaluation of whether “Linus and Lucy” is a Christmas song, a Thanksgiving song, or just the soundtrack for people who think sentimental nostalgia is a personality trait. Lieutenant Crain, now East Idaho’s musical authority by decree, declares it Thanksgiving-only, banishing it from all Christmas playlists with the seriousness of a federal order.Then chaos erupts as a caller with a three-part legal dissertation phones in from the battleground that is the Life in Idaho Falls Facebook page. This leads to explanations about emergency vehicle protocol, school bus standoffs, funeral procession etiquette, and the delicate art of not interrupting a line of mourning cars unless you enjoy being spiritually hexed by strangers.But the episode reaches its true apex when a man — later identified as Brandon, but briefly cosplaying as Raoul Duke from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas — demands to know whether a grumpy Texan can enforce a homemade 10 MPH speed limit on a private driveway using only a four-wheeler and intimidation. The discussion immediately devolves into hypothetical cowboy justice, driveway diplomacy, and the question, “Can the police legally ticket you on private land?” Answer: no. “Can the owner beat you with a shovel?” Answer: probably, and with enthusiasm.From there, callers begin oscillating wildly between highly technical questions about bridge weight limits and people who clearly dialed after being hit in the head with a decorative coconut. Viktor confesses he’s been deep-diving bridge-collapse conspiracy websites at 2AM. Crain gives actual helpful insight. And then someone asks about fingernail polish longevity, which somehow turns into biker bars, sledgehammer thumbs, and domestic manicure politics.By the time the show ends, the audience has learned:– How to legally bypass a bus without becoming a neighborhood villain– Why you shouldn’t abandon your car halfway onto an off-ramp like a confused possum– That Crain has never seen Fear and Loathing but absolutely should – And that Viktor possesses the spiritual energy of a raccoon given responsibility it never asked for.This episode isn’t a show. It’s a roadside attraction built out of phone calls, mispronounced names, public confusion, and Lieutenant Crain wondering — out loud — whether any caller today has fully functioning brain cells. It’s Traffic School at its most bewildering, its most vibrant, and its most unintentionally educational.

#0269 - I Tried to Save Democracy but Ended Up Eating Ketchup Packets in a Carpet-Walled Bunker - 11/13/2025

This episode of The Viktor Wilt Show was a full-on caffeine-soaked meltdown of civic duty, masculine self-awareness, and peanut-butter-based survivalism. It opens with Viktor spiraling through Facebook comment sections like a digital archaeologist sifting through the ruins of Idaho Falls politics — half anthropology, half aneurysm — urging listeners to “please, for the love of democracy, don’t vote based on ditch signs.” From there, he whiplashes into a tirade about the government reopening, accusing Congress of sneaking “weasel bills” into the national bloodstream, before immediately careening into a Reddit pit titled “What do men hate most about being women?” It’s a rollercoaster of disgust, empathy, and existential horror until a caller named Captain Common Sense phones in to declare that society is five minutes from dystopia — punctuating it all with a deadpan “hail Hydra.”Viktor then slams into a segment about secret industry scams, gleefully exposing 300% eyewear markups, the funeral home urn hustle, and the fact that cremation boxes can be swapped out for cheaper Amazon knockoffs (“just pour Mom in the nice one”). Somewhere between the fall of the penny, rage therapy studies, and a rant about why humans are too stupid for flying cars, he starts self-soothing with Red Dead Redemption flower-picking sessions.The chaos peaks in the “61 Gifts for Men That Aren’t Boring” segment — a nihilistic shopping spree where Viktor methodically declares every gift “boring,” “basic,” or “literally a hat.” It’s a descent into absurdity so deep that by the time he’s mock-reviewing portable forks and “Dr. Squatch deodorant,” he sounds like he’s broadcasting from the edge of a retail-induced psychotic break.The show closes with a surreal office conversation with his boss about burning backup batteries, cursed Halloween costumes, and eating ketchup packets for lunch, all while the walls (apparently carpeted) threaten spontaneous combustion. Viktor signs off muttering about spreadsheets, Go-Gurts, and “heading into hell,” which feels less like a metaphor and more like a mission statement.It’s not so much a radio show as a hyperventilating fever dream of local politics, male redemption, and the slow collapse of Western sanity — live, on air.

#0268 - The AI Cowboy Who Killed Country Music - 11/12/2025

This episode of The Viktor Wilt Show is pure chaotic enlightenment — a caffeine-fueled odyssey that starts with missed Northern Lights and spirals into a full-blown meltdown about the state of humanity, Facebook Marketplace, and AI country music. It opens with Viktor, trapped in a domestic tragedy, folding laundry under the cold tyranny of a cul-de-sac streetlight while everyone else in Idaho Falls allegedly basks in cosmic auroras. From there, he plunges into philosophical despair, asking whether being loved is a universal experience or a myth invented by Hallmark. By the time he’s comparing loneliness to a “black cloud of darkness,” he’s also joking about falling asleep mid-laundry cycle — the duality of man in real time.After a brief detour into “luxuries only impressive to people who don’t have them,” Viktor roasts private jets, boats, horses, and his own fragile health, declaring his “give-a-crap meter at an all-time low” before promoting a Secret Santa campaign with the same tone someone might use to warn about incoming meteor debris. His descent into absurdity continues with a horrifying Facebook Marketplace tour — cat treadmills, free cardboard boxes, and a goat named Jamal (“a good boy who loves to be a goat”) — all while begging his girlfriend not to buy poultry or livestock.The fever breaks briefly when Viktor watches a bridge collapse video “for fun,” segues into falling iguanas in Florida, and then accuses a nine-year-old of running a deadly carnival ride. Then comes the scorpion milker saga — a man harvesting venom worth $10 million per liter — which Viktor instantly dismisses as “not worth it unless you’re immortal and need side money.”And then, just when you think the chaos has peaked, Peaches storms in to discuss the end of music itself: an AI-generated country song called “Breaking Rust” that’s allegedly topped the charts. The two spiral into madness dissecting its lyrics, mocking “boot-stomping AI cowboys,” and creating their own absurd country track live on air — a feverish name-drop anthem listing every outlaw musician alive and dead, punctuated by Viktor obsessively recording handclaps for a “clapper sounder” that never quite works.The show ends in true apocalyptic fashion: a full-blown rally cry for civic participation, Viktor shouting about the Idaho Falls mayoral runoff like a man trying to save democracy through sheer caffeine intake, punctuating his speech with manic applause and deadpan “Yeah!”s.It’s not a radio broadcast — it’s a hallucinatory descent into local politics, space weather, digital apocalypse, and existential barnyard economics, all narrated by a man clapping alone in a soundproof booth, begging the cosmos to show him the Northern Lights before the iguanas fall.

#0267 - Broadcasting Live from the Simulation That Forgot to Close Its Tabs - 11/11/2025

Todays show is a delirious odyssey through the fractured psyche of Viktor Wilt — part therapy session, part broadcast from the edge of a collapsing simulation, and all beautiful chaos. It opens with him trudging into the studio on a Tuesday morning, groggy, aching, and only halfway human after spending the previous day in what he describes as an “AI-induced nightmare” so detailed it could have been a shared hallucination between David Lynch and a malfunctioning Google server. He admits he didn’t make it to work Monday — turned his car around mid-commute because “the vibes were off” — and tried to sleep, only to plunge straight into digital hell.The dream begins innocently enough: Viktor’s in yet another one of his recurring “I lost my house” dreams, moving into a dingy basement apartment attached to a high school. The walls are made of prehistoric stone like the basement of Poky High, and there are no real boundaries — you can just walk from his so-called apartment right into the school halls. Then everything begins to melt, expand, and replicate like a GAN image set to nightmare mode. Classrooms merge into shopping malls, aisles stretch to infinity, and every object Viktor’s ever seen materializes around him in a nauseating museum of his own mind. The dream becomes lucid, but he can’t wake up. He slaps himself, begs the grotesque AI-hybrid strangers to shake him, and eventually concludes he’s in a coma. When he finally claws his way out, the world outside is worse — a burned sky full of skull-shaped smoke clouds, nuclear fallout raining down in iridescent colors, and a stranger whispering, “Isn’t it beautiful?” while everything disintegrates. Viktor wakes up screaming, relieved but still mentally wrecked, declaring it one of the worst dreams of his life.The show spirals from there like a feverish carousel of topics: he laments his frazzled brain and back pain, swallows ibuprofen, and tries to pivot to “something cheerful” — which naturally means reading internet threads about the most dangerous people listeners have ever met. From ex-mobsters to murderers from Burley, Idaho, the segment becomes a grim highlight reel of human depravity. Viktor admits he’s “in a sketchy mental state” and jokes about needing to blast Electric Callboy to purify his mind. He meanders into civic studies — government payout rumors, Elon Musk promising America five grand, and cities people still inexplicably want to live in — before declaring Burley “the worst place imaginable” and GTA VI “humanity’s last hope.”Then comes the freak news segment, where sanity fully leaves the building. Viktor gleefully reports that a Canadian government office was vandalized with ostrich poop (spelling out profanity), Honda Civics are losing wheels mid-drive, and nearly 200 bodies have been found in Houston bayous while officials shrug. Somewhere between the corpses and conspiracies, he veers into alien panic — a comet that might be a spaceship, seven jets of cosmic gas, and the theory that extraterrestrials are cloaking themselves before Christmas. He points out that his own station once created fake news about a feud between Brian Johnson and Sabrina Carpenter — “sadly didn’t go viral” — and half-seriously wonders if the Daily Star would print it anyway.As the episode teeters between madness and melancholy, Becca joins the studio to keep him company — a grounding presence in the maelstrom. Together they unpack Viktor’s nightmare, her sympathy laced with laughter as he describes mutant AI malls and dream-coma existentialism. They joke about the horrors of Facebook AI videos — robot people kissing their creators, flesh-and-wire abominations with glowing hearts — and Becca begs him to stop watching before his brain fully uploads itself. A listener named Stuart calls in to ask whether Viktor was wearing his CPAP during the dream, and Viktor deadpans that the non-CPAP dreams are worse: “Those ones are me walking around, unable to breathe, thinking I’m gonna die.”The second half of the show veers into total Floridian absurdity — a man threatening to “slice throats” outside a hotel, another firing a gun during an argument about how many eggs chickens can lay, and a cranky fisherman trying to drown a teenager over a license dispute. Viktor and Becca dissolve into dark laughter, discussing bar fights, hidden weapons, and the eternal stupidity of humankind. When Peaches joins later, they debate dying in the Grand Canyon, beard dye conspiracies, and Viktor’s new bathroom reading material (“Death in the Grand Canyon — good book for guests if their phones die”).By the end, the show’s tone softens. Viktor shares a story about a family whose dead cat is mysteriously “replaced” by a stray at the gravesite, and he nearly cries thanking his own cat, Lucy, for sitting by him all day through the nightmare aftermath. It’s an oddly tender finale — proof that beneath all the chaos, there’s a heart still beating under the static.The episode ends the way it began: half-laughing, half-spiraling, full of rock music, dread, absurdity, and strange hope. It’s talk radio as psychological exorcism — a confessional broadcast from inside the algorithm, where nightmares leak into the feed and the only way out is to talk, laugh, and keep the mics on.
