  • The Sins of Kilty O'neil

    A live exorcism over the phone from calling a televangelist. Yeah, I swear. This was all real. I had the sound fx piped through the phone line and everything.

  • A Crackhouse (Crack House) Christmas & I've Got Talent Remastered with commentary

    Double feature! Remember those 90's style commercials and infomercials that would try and get you to buy a compilation of either soft rock, 80s hits, 70s ballads, or Christmas compilations?  That's where I got the idea for A Crack House Christmas. I wanted to make a parody of those cheesy commercial styles  but position it from the point of view of  hard ghetto drug pimp. 

    I've Got Talent is a prank call that came from the idea of a completely talent-less kid, but who is ultra confident that he is the best that ever lived.

  • For Kids or Not for Kids? How YouTube is being unclear with creators about FTC COPPA laws

    YouTube (the actual entity that collects data on everyone who uses it) is trying to shift blame on their data collecting of minors to individual creators by parsing videos into only two categories: for kids or not for kids & not providing a middle ground (for general audiences) which most channels fall under.   They are NOT BEING honest, realistic, or transparent about the FTC fines & COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) law, how compliance actually works, and are dodging having to fix their broken system by shifting the blame from their data collection of 12 and under (which they have control of) to creators because of a few bad acting channels. You can fight back! What YouTube has told you is very unclear and misleading.  COPPA clearly DOES NOT consider "General Audience" or "Mixed audience" videos such as gaming, animation, or vlogs that both adults and children might enjoy to be in the "directed at children" category. You are only in that category if YOU ARE DIRECTLY AND PURPOSELY directing and targeting children as your audience. YouTube is not taking this into account and the burden should be on them to update their data collection techniques.  This whole fiasco is leaving many channel creators highly disturbed and upset and some even quitting their channels all together. Don't take this lying down - fight back for YouTube to institute a true general audience or mixed categorization that actually represents and complies with COPPA without throwing creators under the bus.  Educate yourself and let your objections be know to @TeamYouTube  @YouTube @YTCreators as well as the FTC at https://www.ftc.gov/about-ftc/commiss... and the online COPPA petition https://www.change.org/p/youtubers-an...

  • I Ain't Don't Got No Turkey

    It’s Thanksgiving somewhere in the 90s, and I, as usual, was not celebrating with my family because they hated me.  Instead, I decided to stay on live the whole day at 88.5 WKPX, and I make up this little song about how I ain't don’t have any turkey…  you don’t have any turkey.. where the hell IS the turkey?


    This has been lost for a long time and I found it on a crappy cassette tape of my old NO CLASS radio show - so the quality level is a little lacking, but the heart’s still there.  You’ll be singing along before you know it.  I dedicate this to all those turkeyless Thanksgivings, Christmases, and any other Holidays that had to be spent alone.

  • Blackout's Box Podcast Beta Test

    A time traveling  way before the internets was a thing gets into the internets and finds just how internets it might be, Are we Gods? Are we God itself? Are we peasants controlled by a manipulative magical occult authority type god, group or mass consciousness?  Or are we just all of the above - the paranoia?
