Also, tell your friends if you enjoy, the content. If you don't, let me know how to improve. Alright? Alright. Let's get to the show.
Well, well, well, it is December 23rd 2024. We out here on this fine Christmas Eve squared. I'm in fact live here, so feel free to get ahold of me at 208-535-1015. Most radio shows, including Victor, took today off. The bigger cities, they just stopped doing shows at this time of the year.
They're gone for, like, a month. Many of those, big named, radio DJs, they're out there on their vacations. One of them is in Hawaii right now going all over the various islands, checking out different spots. You know what I have to say about that. Oh, good for you.
Oh, good for you is right. You know, I had to be extra festive with my pick of the day today. Like I said, during the noon hour of madness and mayhem powered by Jalisco's, I saw that list of the top 10 funniest Christmas movies of all time, which had national lampoons, Christmas Vacation at number 1, but then Love Actually at number 2, and Elf at 3. How is Love Actually funnier than Elf? I haven't seen Love Actually, but I'm it's hard to believe that that movie's funnier than one of the best Christmas movies of all time that is Elf.
I don't care if you hate Will Ferrell or not. I love that movie. Every year, I make it a habit of watching it at least once. Elf, such a classic movie. But I think this year, I'll watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation maybe tonight.
Maybe watch Elf tomorrow night. Who knows? I'll keep you updated. Anyway, we got thrice and more on the way here shortly on Kay Bear 101. Maybe you're traveling to a different state.
Maybe you're right at your home here in East Idaho, and you might be planning a vacation here in the near future. Well, I found something cool here to talk about, tourist trap restaurants that are easy to avoid. There's a lot of glaring warning signs like overselling, like if an owner or workers street side trying to get customers in the door like a businessman desperate to close a deal. You're looking at a tourist trap, which, by the way, the best it's so funny. I was in San Francisco years ago with my family on vacation, and we were walking around Chinatown.
And there were so many different people handing out brochures for this one particular restaurant. And we're like, okay. We thought it was a glaring sign that it was gonna be just that that it was desperation, that the food was gonna suck. And we ended up riding one of those Double Decker Red bus tours later that day and found out that that is one of the best restaurants to go to in the area. The tour guide's like, yeah.
If you want good Chinese food, great Chinese food, you go to that specific restaurant, and all me and my family just looked at each other like, oh, we should have we should have went there. But, no, we didn't. So I don't really agree with that one. Bigger doesn't mean better. Yeah.
For me, like, if you advertise oh, this is not even talking about, like, the food. It's talking more so about, like, being the lookout for larger scale over 200 seat operations usually in downtowns. I don't know much about that. I thought it was, like, bigger food. Like, oh, come try our 2 pound burger or something like that.
Like, for me, that just seems like a big mess and doesn't appeal to me. I don't know. I'm not a big burger person. A Cheesecake Factory style menu at number 3 here on these glaring warning signs for tourist trap restaurants, that's that's that menu's overwhelming. Don't talk about being overwhelmed in a restaurant.
Try going to The Cheesecake Factory and look at their menu. It's like 20 pages deep. You ask, the other people who you're with. Hey, what are you gonna get? Oh, check page 7 right there on the 3rd row.
That's what I'm getting. A half baked dessert menu. Haven't really messed with that at all. Gift shops at number 5. Well, me and my dad always like going to Cracker Barrel.
That's one of my dad's favorite restaurants. When we drove from Seal Beach to Idaho Falls, we stopped at Cracker Barrel, like, three times, and I think he stopped at more of them on the way back. He loves that place. That place has a gift shop. So I don't necessarily agree with this list, but you can live by it if you want.
Well, the radio prep is desperate for news today. I saw this question here. What the color of your snot says about your immune health? I bet this will have you, you know, digging up digging for gold here soon and looking at the color going, I must be healthy. I was looking at the here's what the many colors of your snot says about your health.
Clear? You're good. White? Well, you might have some congestion, a sign of congestion. Yellow indicates your immune system's actively fighting off an infection.
Green, I think that's just normal. Green results from an an intensified immune response. So green, nah. Isn't green really the normal color? And if you have red or pink, brown or orange or black, well, there might be some issues there.
Don't don't go picking your nose now in public. Okay? Just check check-in private. Well, it's live. NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command, will once again be keeping tabs on good old Saint Nick on Christmas Eve with its Santa tracker, which is already live at norad santa.org.
And because it's 2024, there's a NORAD Tracker Santa app because everything needs an app, especially tracking Santa that one night out of the year. I remember being so afraid as a kid of staying up too late and, you know, Santa would fly over the house and skip our house because we were still awake, one of those parents or one of those lies my parents would say just to get me in bed. You know? His movements will also be tracked on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter. And if that's not enough for you, you can even call 1877 Hi NORAD to ask a live operator for Santa's current location.
I would call that number right now, But if I have to get a live operator, I is it really live? I might need to test this out. I'll record it and see if they are actually live and return back with the next break. Well, I tried calling, but I kept just getting a busy tone. So I don't know if the number is just not available right now or not available yet.
Maybe Christmas Eve is when it opens up. We'll see. And this right here is your Shot Clock sports update. There was some shocking news over the weekend. Baseball legend Ricky Henderson, has died after a bout with pneumonia.
Henderson, who played most of his 25 year career with the Oakland A's and the New York Yankees, held the all time record for stolen bases and runs scored. He was also a 10 time all star player and a 1st ballot hall of famer. May he rest in peace. In other news here, quarterbacks are known for giving Christmas gifts. I already talked about this on Friday.
But, Joe Burrow giving away authentic Japanese katana swords to each one of his offensive linemen. I thought that was really, really cool. More pro football here. When Netflix was streaming that Mike Tyson and Jake Paul fight, when they were streaming that whole fight last month, plenty of viewers were upset about glitches and streaming issues, including myself. This week, Netflix will be streaming the NFL's Christmas Day games and their good games.
Chiefs at the Steelers followed by the Ravens at the Texans, the NFL says Netflix teamed or learned from their mistakes and believes there won't be any serious technical problems during the big Christmas day games. Netflix is also moving and shaking in the world of women's soccer as they've secured, US broadcast rights for the 2027, 2031 Women's World Cups. The deal marks the first time the Women's World Cup will be broadcast in the streaming service. The 2023 tournament was a ratings hit for Fox when the US was still in it. Netflix is hoping fans return in a couple of years and that the US women's team make a deep run into the, the tourney there.
That does it for your Shot Clock Sports Update right here on KayBear 101. Peach's pit party on KayBear 101 right now on our YouTube channel at kbearot 101rmg. You can find my video interview of me talking with Maddie Mullins of Memphis May Fire in Amber Lynn. You can also find the Mark Tremonti interview that happened last week. All of my prior interviews, well, most of my prior interviews are out there on demand wherever you can find your podcasts.
Artist Interrogations podcast. I'll be uploading another episode here soon. Just trying to catch up with all the previous interviews that I, have have done, and I wanna put them out there on demand for you to listen to. Should have done this a long, long time ago, but we're finally getting to it. So that way, eventually, we can just, you know, do an interview live on the air and then put it out there on demand for you to enjoy right then and there.
The Artist Interrogations podcast wherever you get podcasts. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow.
I I truly am astonished by the the lack of quality Christmas music that gets put out there nowadays. You know, we always resort to the classics. There was that video of old Brenda Lee walking around Target seeing her record on display. I wonder what she thinks now of Target. Like, does it baffle her mind considering she's a much older person compared to the rest of us?
And she probably saw Target back when it was first created, and now she walks into a Target store and sees all the electronics on the wall and sort of has a re has a reaction kinda like the aliens from Toy Story. They go, woah. You know, that type of thing. I wonder what any old person thinks whenever they walk into an electronic store nowadays and go, I have no idea what this all is. But there is a lack of quality Christmas music being put out there nowadays, and here's a prime example.
Kim Kardashian dropped her cover of Santa Baby produced by Travis Barker. Are we going to get this on Classy 90 7 next year? I should I should have brought Josh into the studio for this one. I think he's already gone, unfortunately. I think it was back in 2021 when we did Christmas music on Classy 90 7 from November 1st to January 1st, and you could slowly see Josh go insane as the as the time went on.
Like, at least this year, it was just halfway through November. And then on December 25th, after that's after Christmas is done and over with, Classy goes right back to normal. And I bet you, there will be some people messaging the Facebook page going, you guys should have kept it going till January 1st. I'm mad now. It's like you can never please the Christmas music elitists.
We gotta be thankful to those delivering food, packages, etcetera this holiday season. On Friday night, I made the dumb mistake of trying to get DoorDash delivered to my place, not realizing that Idaho Falls is hap was having their, Christmas light parade around the same time that I tried getting that delivered. And so I was getting frustrated because, like, 15, 20 minutes passed, and I see my driver still in the exact same place where he was. And I texted him like, is everything okay? What's going on?
And then right after I sent that message, I went on to Facebook and saw somebody post about, hey. Almost all of downtown Idaho Falls is closed off for the Christmas light parade, and I couldn't return the order because I was asking, like, hey. Can I possibly just cancel my order so that way you can stay on that part of town and potentially just get orders done over there instead of wasting your time trying to get to me? Luckily enough, after about an hour waiting, which wasn't the driver's fault at all. It was the lack of planning on my part, not even realizing there was a parade on Friday night.
Luckily, I tipped the guy extra heavy, and he get got me my food to the door, which was awesome. I'm I'm glad to go ahead powered through. He got to the freeway in time, but I wish there was more of a public announcement when it comes to the Idaho Falls Christmas light parade. So that way, I could have just gone to some place on my side of town instead. You know?
Anyway, be kind. Be thankful for those delivering packages. Luckily, there wasn't any delays at all with what I shipped out, what my parents shipped me. They've done an amazing job this year. Thank you to those, delivery drivers from whatever company.
We're now seeing companies use AI to sort of be lazy. I talked about Call of Duty Black Ops 6. If you look at some of the photos they've been using, obviously, AI generated. The zombie claws has 6 fingers on one hand. Same with another photo they use.
The hand that they had in the photo had, like, 7 fingers. They they didn't even bother to fix it. They just put it right into the game. And I saw this TikTok video over the weekend about this lady looking at, Christmas bags or, like, just different bags you can put presents in. And all of them had very obvious AI generated designs on them.
You wanna know why? Well, they showed Santa and Santa's reindeer, but antlers were growing out of places antlers shouldn't. There was also fingers that were, you know, there's 6 on one hand, 7 on the other, and you go, something's not right here. Nobody drew this. Somebody just slapped it together like my, National Emo Day post where I just said, hey.
Could you give me a design that says happy National Emo Day? And there's a little square on the right side where it says happy National Emo Day on my post. Now I created the rest of the post. Like, I put the K Bear logo. I listed all the songs I played for National Emo Day, but I wasn't trying to sell anything like the one company that tried selling Christmas bags at Target with very obvious AI generated Santas on them.
I think even, a place that rhymes with Bobby Bobby, was accused of selling AI generated artwork. Like, very obviously AI generated, which is sad because we, as humans, developed AI, and now most of us are against it. Like, sure, we should be using it for shortcuts for things we don't wanna do, like taxes or other various tedious things. But, you know, companies out there are gonna become lazy and just use it to replace, well, real workers. Now Hollywood is casting, like, the same 5 or 6 people, The Rock, Jack Black, Chris Pratt, Tom Holland.
It's the same people for every movie. Isn't Jack Black coming out with, like, 2 new movies before Christmas this year? Like, there's the Dear Santa movie, and then there's another one that I literally just saw a trailer for that's coming out this Christmas as well. Everybody's now hating on Jack Black ever since the whole tenacious day thing, which is quite funny because Jack Black used to be a national treasure. Now people have turned against him.
But I was looking here at the, live action Skeletor because now not Hollywood has officially run out of ideas. We've talked about it on the show plenty of times. There's no original content, really. There's always a remake of something or a live action adaptation of whatever or whatever classic there is. It has just been announced that Skeletor is good.
There's gonna be a live action adaptation of Skeletor, and they decided for Jared Leto as Skeletor. There are a lot of other better options out there than him. He's one of those actors that's been in a lot of things as of late. Even IMDB posted a poll asking, hey. Which actor would you rather have play Skeletor with a wide variety of options?
Do we need a live action Skeletor? That's my big question. Honestly, do we need any live action movies? Like, the live action Moana that they're filming. Do we really need that?
No. Peach's pit party on Kay Bear 101. There's a lot of people now talking about why exactly everyone needs to bring their dog in stores. There was a post made in life at Idaho Falls not that long ago where this person walked into Hobby Lobby out of all places with just their dog. Their dog's barking, causing the scene, and a lot of people are against, including myself.
Just bringing your dog into random stores, like, you know, dogs, animals, and as as a whole are gonna cause messes. People cause messes, but animals cause them a little bit more than most people. Well, I I could only imagine how mad I would be if I paid for a first class. A Delta passenger complained on Reddit. Now I don't know if this is true or not.
Just some guy yelling on Reddit. We don't know the backstory. But he lost his 1st class seat to a dog. He got upgraded, so he didn't pay for 1st class. He got upgraded to 1st the morning of the flight.
Only to 15 minutes later, get downgraded. He then boarded to see this dog in his 1st class seat, and then he got livid. Apparently, the passenger was relocated to accommodate a service animal. Now it's from what I heard, very easy to make your dog a service animal or one of those emotional support animals. There is a lot of people the number of people flying with animals now through the roof.
Not just flying, but going through random stores like we just talked about. A Delta employee that had to hop into the conversation on Reddit to remind everyone that the airline grants priority to passengers with special needs and service animals. Now I get it. Like, if you're legitimately handicapped in a way, then you need that service animal to help you around. But if you're just one of those people that's like, oh, I need to bring my Rottie my Rottweiler with me on a plane, Let me put, like, some highlighter colored vest on him.
He's now my emergency support Rottie. It's like, I'd be livid too if I was this guy to get upgraded. Like, you get that glimpse of, like, 1st class, then, like, they just take it away. It's like that guy with a fishing pole. Like, oh, you got your 1st class.
Nope. Nope. Reeling it back in. Reeling it back in. What a moron in the news today.
27 year old Charles Smith. He was arrested after allegedly posting a video of himself spraying bug killer on food at an Arizona Walmart. Yeah. It shows him holding the hotshot bug spray spraying the contents on fresh produce and chicken. Now the guy admitted, oh, it was just a prank.
It was just a prank. I swear. Well, he faces charges of introducing poison and criminal damage among other charges. What a moron. What kind of stupid prank is that?
Like, oh, I'm gonna spray chemicals on produce. You don't realize how easy it is to do anything with the produce at any store. And now they're gonna probably have to lock it up. You know? They probably had to throw away that whole section.
Imagine seeing the oranges in cages. Imagine seeing, like, a glass case in front of the lemons. Like, you have to ask an associate. Hey. Can I get 3 lemons out of the the the shell the container there, please?
Thank you. Last Friday, Ben, Mason, and a couple of other people from the Advocates injury attorneys were here in studio to assist with traffic school with Lieutenant Crane and Victor, and, Ben thought it would be nice that he'd be nice enough to give away $250 in a Visa gift card to one lucky listener. Shout out to Scott winning that gift card. That was a pretty cool thing. Traffic School happens every Friday at 8:45 where you get to ask lieutenant Crane any Idaho law related question that you might have.
Or if you just have a question for a cop in general, you can ask him live on the show at 208-535-1015 Traffic School powered by The Advocates, which, by the way, you can also find the previous episodes on demand wherever you get podcasts. I know we're 2 days away from Christmas, but it's not too late to get that special somebody, maybe even yourself, some concert tickets for the Christmas time. And, sure, there are a ton of shows already announced for 2025 that are coming to the area for next year. Thanks, Silverstein. There's a couple of other ones in there right the beginning of February.
April is looking jam packed with shows. And I realized over the weekend, I might be missing Tom Segura at the Mountain America Center because I'll be back at home for ACDC with the Pretty Reckless at the Rose Bowl. My dad surprised me. Well, it didn't surprise me. We tried our best to get tickets for that show for April, and I'm thinking I might just go down there for the weekend, go to that show, leave on Monday.
That'd be pretty cool to go see them again, pay my debt back for that ticket just to see them for one last time, one final time before they're done and over with. ACDC getting up there in age. I mean, Brian Johnson, 77 years old. He did look pretty cool. He looked pretty good in that recent video with Lady Gaga.
I'm glad he's still doing his thing despite having that hearing problem and all that. The band, you know, they're just getting older. They've been around for quite a long time. It'd be awesome to see ACDC, but, yeah, if you wanna give somebody that, those concert tickets, go to our concert calendar at riverbendmediagroup.com/calendar. Well, it is Christmas Eve eve, and, I figured I would ask the question.
What's the the best Christmas gift you've ever received? What is it? Let me know the first thing that comes to your head. For me, I mean, I've gotten a lot of great gifts as a kid even as well, now I didn't expect my parents to gift me an Xbox Series X when they did. I thought I'd be stuck with the Xbox 1 and have to buy the system myself.
But, no, I think it was 2 years ago they gifted me the Xbox Series X. I finally upgraded to that. It's been great ever since. I wonder what else there could be. I mean, the drum set was a great gift.
The Xbox 360 back when my parents were it it just gifted me a whole bunch. I was a spoiled brat. Still am, spoiled brat. But what's the best Christmas gift you've ever received? Let me know.
208-535-1015. That is today's Depeach the Rhone question. Calling now. I was just about to get to reading Facebook comments. I'm glad you called in.
How's it going? Oh, it's not too terribly bad. What is the question of the day, my friend? Oh, come on. What's the best Christmas gift you've ever received, Jeremy?
My first video or a cake? I think I think it would be something like that. Now which one was it? I honestly cannot remember the name of it because it was an antique. It was basically, it came out around the same time as Asteroids, but it was a knock off company.
But still, we set it up in an arcade, put a dime mechanism instead of a quarter, and started making money off of it. Oh, man. That'd be such a cool thing. Hey. I used the money off of it to buy an Asteroids machine.
So And the rest is just history. Yeah. What's the best Christmas gift you've ever received? So, you know, it's when you get divorced, parents, you get 2 Christmases. Right?
Mhmm. So I was a couple states away from my dad, and he sent me a gift package of gifts. And in that package, which, you know, wasn't wasn't the norm for me, dude, it was a Game Boy Color because they had just come out. Yes. I'm showing my age here.
It was awesome, dude. I have Zelda and everything on it. Dude, that that's, well, that's a great theme. But all second of all oh, good for you. Yeah.
Yeah. Dude, it was the see through purple one. Oh, that's even better, dude. I miss those types of systems, like the the see through, the transparent different colors too. The teal and purple and orange and pink and all that fun to With no no backlight, so I couldn't play it at night.
Oh, yeah. That was the that was always the fun part. You couldn't play the Game Boy Color at night at all. Mhmm. You had to buy, like, the, think I had the Game Boy Advance with that light attached to it.
Well, my Game Boy Color had one. It had its own battery. So, like, I'm rocking 4 batteries, but you'd stick it on top of it and flip it, and it almost feel like a magnifying glass too. So you couldn't play for that long because your eyes would hurt. Now now look at us.
We have a a RGB lights you can attach to the TV. There's so much more you can do do with things now. It's kinda like what I mentioned, on the show earlier about the, about being an old person going into Walmart and just being, like, shocked at, like, the electronics section of the 98 inch television? I can I I remember those big tube ones that were just heaven and earth to move an inch over? And then I remember also, like I remember flip phones.
I had a flip phone. So did I. I bought myself a flip phone. And having to use t 9 to text Mhmm. Those were the days.
Yeah. My dad gets so mad at me because, one of my friends kept texting me on my phone, and we didn't have unlimited texting. And he found that out on the phone. And my friend, Michael, just keeps sending me text messages over and over and over again. And sure enough, he's yelling, stop.
Stop. And he waving his arms in the air. Thanks for listening to Peach's Pit Party, the podcast. If you enjoy the show, please share, subscribe, and rate the podcast. Peach's Pit Party is hosted by me, Peaches, in this production of Riverbend Media Group.
