This is our second video this week. It is a quick look at the Alien Fresh Jerky store in Baker, CA. If you’ve done the drive from LA to Vegas, you’ve probably seen their signs on the way there. One day we decided to check them out in Baker and we were impressed by how good their jerky is. We have been stopping there on the way to Vegas ever since. It is a cool, quirky store that sells really good jerky. In addition to jerky they also sell nuts, hot sauce, candy, souvenirs, and the widest array of energy drinks I’ve ever seen. They’ve recently added an alien Barack Obama display. Baker is also home to the world’s tallest thermometer, which is kind of disappointing since it is just a digital thermometer built into a big pole. We wanted to see a giant tube of mercury.

Gbot sure plays a mean pinball

Ever since Gbot was a young boy
He’s played the silver ball
From LA down to Vegas
He must have played them all
But I ain’t seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid genius
Sure plays a mean pinball

This week, as we continue our Gbot in Las Vegas specials, Gbot visits some of the small towns near the city of Las Vegas that have been made famous by the game Fallout: New Vegas. Sorry for the jittery camera work. You can blame it on the cameraman shivering. It was a very cold day!
Want to spend New Year’s Eve in Las Vegas?

It can be a little daunting since Las Vegas isn’t as well organized as Times Square, but with these tips from Gbot you too can have a smooth celebration. This video is more informational than our usual videos and we hope it helps some people out, but don’t worry because we got lots of footage in Las Vegas that we will be showing in the coming weeks.
We’re still recovering from our Las Vegas trip. Come back next week for an all new episode. Also, we will soon be debuting The Great King (working title), a new show that will replace Travels and Adventures while we prepare for season 1.5.
