This episode of The Viktor Wilt Show is a descent into Halloween-season delirium — a nonstop monologue of horror movies, alien diplomacy, book-banning rage, and random mic malfunctions that somehow tie together like a fever dream powered by rock radio and zero sleep. It begins innocently enough: Viktor tries to find the “Scariest Movies of 2025 According to Science,” only to realize the internet is gaslighting him with 2023 lists. From there, he spirals into an impassioned TED Talk about why Resident Evil 7 VR was the last time he truly felt fear, while ranting that Hereditary is “not scary, just uncomfortable,” and The Descent is nightmare fuel because “caves are hell.” The vibe: horror movie sommelier meets existential meltdown.

Just as you think the show might calm down, it detonates again — Viktor starts pondering what single piece of human media could save Earth if aliens arrived demanding a cultural offering. His picks? Tool’s “Rosetta Stoned,” maybe Lateralus, but he also admits the internet would absolutely Rickroll the invaders. The conversation ping-pongs from Bob Ross AI videos to Keeping Up With the Kardashians as a possible weapon of mass destruction, to the philosophical beauty of Wall-E and Planet Earth. The tone veers from reflective to unhinged like a man trying to reason with extraterrestrials while holding a Monster Energy can in one hand and a flashlight under his chin.

Then, without transition, we dive into the macabre world of “Morbid Knowledge,” where Viktor describes a factory worker whose severed hand was surgically attached to his ankle (“You could tickle your own foot from your ankle!”) before realizing the page is too horrifying for breakfast radio. From there, we smash-cut to a passionate rant about Banned Books Week, where Viktor channels his inner Stephen King protagonist — railing against prudish lawmakers, mocking Hawaii’s “confusing signs” excuse, and declaring that reading should be rebellion. Seconds later, we pivot again to ladybirds (British for ladybugs) urinating on a woman’s home, and Viktor spends an unholy amount of time describing bug pee, disease, and the smell of horror.

By hour two, the show has dissolved into meta-radio performance art: Viktor and Jade argue about naps, Bob the imaginary house-servant is summoned like a sitcom demon, and Peaches wanders in just in time to troubleshoot a cursed microphone that buzzes like it’s possessed by the ghost of FM radio past. They debate soldering cables, nap rights, posture meetings that led to nothing, and whether Lieutenant Crain will need a step stool. The entire segment sounds like a workplace sitcom written by David Lynch and edited by an amphetamine-fueled intern.

It ends, mercifully, with Viktor hyping up the night’s In This Moment concert, promising horror movie marathons, and battling a “button that doesn’t work” live on air. As the episode closes, heavy metal blares, Viktor thanks Riverbend Media Group, and listeners everywhere are left wondering whether they just experienced a morning show or survived an experimental sound collage about madness, caffeine, and the American workweek.
