Broadcasting from 4,200 feet in the Oregon high desert, Sam Wilson — the voice of Chytown and the reddest beard in the hills — returns after a short break with a jam-packed episode of the Make It Out Alive broadcast.

This week, Sam dives into:

• The end of an era as The Late Show with Stephen Colbert announces its final season, and why Sam thinks late-night TV lost its way.
• A gripping NYC subway slashing story where the victim fought back — with deadly results.
• A shocking Illinois crime: an illegal immigrant accused of a gruesome decapitation, released under the controversial Safety Act, only to be re-arrested by ICE.
• Chaos near L.A.’s Crypto.com Arena with a machete-wielding man and a police shooting.
• And the viral story that exploded online: the CEO caught on a stadium kiss cam in an affair-level moment that cost him his job — a real-time lesson on the power (and peril) of today’s internet.

Sam also shares updates on his new post-apocalyptic novella Kombat Kat: Rise of the Felix Unit (Combat with a K, Cat with a K), now available on Amazon, and offers real-world survival insights, from urban dangers to why gear testing matters. Plus, a nostalgic spotlight on the gritty 1975 Charles Bronson classic Hard Times, celebrating old-school toughness and minimalism.
