Back before Victor Lucas had one of the worst cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome. The guy is the 2nd most insufferable game "personality" on X.

There was also an episode where Victor caught up with Kelly. Some good footage in there too. She was a babe back in those days.

and i don't just mean influencers, every American I've ever met can't wait to tell you who they vote for...

Victor never had a good judge of character. He co-hosted the show with Tommy Tallarico, lol. Interesting time capsule here though, I might check out a couple episodes for the nostalgia rush.

I never thought I'd ever see Vai and Satch's names along with Diddy Kong Racing in the same YouTube video title.

Haha, cheers. After posting that question I did a quick google and came across a Reddit thread explaining all of this.

I was raised that it’s rude and impolite to ask someone who they voted for, and also that you don’t tell people who you voted for. It’s nobody’s business. So I would say you are making a blanket generalization, and also your personal experience with this may be uncommon.

You probably will never watch it at 2 hours but this video is really well made. It's insane how much of a liar Tommy Tallarico is.

Used to watch these with my Sister back in the day when they aired, though we're in NV. It was fun occasionally, but like with most things everyone has their opinions and, particularly notable back in the day, people were very ignorant in regards to genres and types of games which led to constant hot takes. I recall Victor being much more open for the most part and souring on other games quickly dismissing them, my guess would be limited time and deadlines etc.
Tommy on the other hand was more consistent with his opinions and openly wore them on his sleeve such as a dislike of things that weren't action based. If it was turn-based or strategic in any way the man would trash it for the most part but I remember him being fair at certain points recognizing that some games had their effort, merits and audience showing some growth and maturity which was cool.
Not keen on the YT channel now though. There are far better channels that cater to specific tastes with more details. As a piece of history its pretty cool though.

I did come across this in my google search. Watched a little on the Tommy section but might be something I dig into over the weekend when I have some spare time.

Sadly now Victor Lucas would cringe and say how awful these characters are while defending the false claims and information being pushed by Crystal Dynamics.
