HenricK The WrecK joins Just Talking to discuss Rage Quit a new video game podcast talk show hosted by Chris Collins and our video game contributor, HenricK The Wreck. A good game gives you chills of excitement when you play but a kick ass game can terrorize you to the core, what game terrorizes you? What’s the cruelest thing you can do to a kid gamer? Take their game system away for poor grades, time out punishment for not doing chores, how about your parents yanking the cord during a boss fight! Game rage meltdown; what game has driven you to the point smashing your controller? Hooked on gaming; a gamers first system is their true love. Henrick started his love affair with the Nintendo 64 and it’s been a match made in heaven since. When Kid Icarus shot a game pad arrow into your hands, what was your first game system love? Top 3 favorite games of all time; was it the storyline, combat and action or the challenge — kiss my ass Galaga, you cheating bastard! Can millennials all admit their first driving lesson was either Grand Theft Auto or Mario Kart. This absolutely explains Marissa’s driving style! Calling out all the future professional gamers, the Olympics will have Esports competitions in the future; so we’re just playing Wii Sports on a big ass screen in the middle of a stadium now? Can The Last Of Us tv show be enough to save the tarnished reputation of bad video game adaptations? We’re looking at you Halo tv series but TLOU is starting to go down that familiar Walking Dead rabbit hole and it’s only episode 7; for now, let’s reserve the rage spores until the last episode. Do all video games work in the cinematic universe? Bloom House and Atomic Monster are working on film adaption of the video game Dead By Daylight, a multiplayer action survival horror game where you get to play as famous iconic movie, tv, novel and video game killers like Halloween’s Michael Myers, Nightmare on Elm Street’s Freddy Kruger and Resident Evil’s Nemesis. We’re excited to see where this goes but didn’t Dark Castle Entertainment try this before, remember 13 Ghosts? Well, virtual reality doesn’t matter anyway, I’m back in the Matrix. Chat GPT Artificial Intelligence is being shoved into video games to make them emotive and impactful. Did you hear that voice over artists, an AI says you can’t voice act.

Episode 1304: Red River Road filmmaker, Paul Schuyler and Swedish Indie Rock Band, Bring the Hoax
JUST TALKING
Triple threat (Writer/Director/Actor) Paul Schuyler joins JUST TALKING to discuss his new film Red River Road. It’s Halloween time! The perfect excuse to watch scary movies or better yet—make one starring your own family. Your house becomes a movie set, the wife and kids are the characters, you’re isolated from society, and trapped in a room with psychotic humans — is this a movie or a documentary about Dad disconnecting the WIFI? An electronic pandemic virus starts infecting humans through the internet, distorting your ability to perceive reality. Writing the screenplay for Red River Road was all about taking things down a wormhole. Once you’re disconnected it’s a roller coaster ride into isolation. The film was produced during the COVID-19 pandemic, a story about an internet pandemic during a real pandemic. Could the internet be the worst thing to ever happen to humanity? Have we hit an addictive toxic extinction event? Is social media the virus attacking society just one river away? Watch for yourself, https://www.wytshark.com/
STRIKE A CHORD
STRIKE A CHORD connects with Swedish Indie Rock Band Bring The Hoax. It all started over a shared love for indie rock and red wine. You’ve got to bring your flavor to the game. Stand out from the pack with fuzzy guitar licks and cute firm melodies. After a quick Ancestry DNA test our Host Chris found out Karl was his long-lost Swedish cousin? They both have the same glasses and the same mustache—BUT Swedes look a lot sexier. So, Chris shaves it off LIVE! Hoax’s latest single is “Jonestown” referencing the mass murder-suicide by cult leader Jim Jones in 1978—but, this dark theme is still fun. The band’s Bring The Hoax EP addresses millennial issues about blindly following online celebrities, social media responsibility and self-worth. The revelution will be televised or maybe streamed on Peacock SOON! Support and listen: https://www.bringthehoax.com/
