Alrighty. Here we are Wednesday, 02/12/2025. If you wanna get ahold of me, you know the number (208) 535-1015. It's Peaches here hanging out with you on this very cold day. We talked about it yesterday.
We were supposed to get into the, like, minus 20 something wind chills last night or have minus 20 something wind chills last night. All day today can be extremely cold. Make sure to bundle up. Just don't go outside. Alright?
I don't like the phrase hunker down, but it's what you gotta do. I'm glad I worked in I work indoors. For those that, work outdoors, please try your best to stay warm, and we appreciate you for doing so. Now I saw this whole Reddit post. This Reddit user found an old job posting from Chicago And Southern Airlines back from 1954.
Now imagine applying for a job and being told you need slender legs and nice hands to qualify. Yeah. That's what that was on the list of requirements for flight attendants back in 1954 to apply for Chicago and Southern Airlines. You also had to be single between 22 and 28, between a hundred and a hundred and twenty pounds, clear skin, good teeth. My favorite on this list, willing and anxious to please.
Gross. Basically, they weren't hiring a flight crew. They were casting a beauty pageant in the sky. Fast forward to today, the main requirement is just putting up passengers to who treat the seat belt sign like a suggestion. So glad to see we've come a long way since then.
So I spent most of this morning making Valentine's Day imaging for this channel, Cannonball. I think I did some alt ones as well, which, by the way, you should download the alt app and the Cannonball app for any future giveaway. And, plus, you should enjoy those channels. Be an overachiever. Have all three apps on your phone, K Bear, alt, and Cannonball.
But Valentine's Day is this Friday. I'm not ready for it. I don't think many people are ready for it. According to the National Retail Federation, America's about to drop a record breaking $28,000,000,000 on love. Yeah.
That's right. 6,500,000,000.0 on jewelry, 5,400,000,000.0 on fancy dinners, 2.9 on flowers, 1.4 on greeting cards. People are literally spending a billion dollars to say I love you in the laziest way possible by signing their name under someone else's words. And let's be honest. Most of that 2,500,000,000 on candy is going straight to the clearance aisle on February 15.
So if you're planning to celebrate, good luck. If you're not, enjoy enjoy knowing you just saved enough money to potentially buy concert tickets, which, by the way, that concert calendar, riverbendmediagroup.com/calendar. I was watching a a YouTube short. I forgot exactly what the channel is called. There are two popular guys.
They don't say anything. They just stand somewhere publicly. One of them has a sign on their T shirt that says, hey. Do something. You'll get insert amount of money here.
I was watching one of those shorts. And in the background, you see a robot just go across the college campus, and everyone was acting like it was normal. Robot just go across the college campus, and everyone was acting like it was normal. But, over at Ohio State, students are getting their late night snacks delivered by robots. Grubhub has deployed about a hundred of these autonomous delivery bots on campus rolling around with everything from pizza to chips, rain or shine too.
And these little guys even have customizable LED panels showing off their school colors because, apparently, even your burrito needs, school spirit. So far, it's been a success, which means it's only a matter of time before we see these robots invading campuses everywhere. And I'm just thinking, like, wouldn't it be easy just to steal the food from one of the robots? Like, there's gonna be tons of problems with this. People assaulting the robots, people stealing from the robots.
The biggest challenge won't be the technology. It'll be drunk college kids as well trying to, ride them like scooters. Peach's pit party on K Bar one zero one, Idaho's only rock station. I was reading this whole article about how some New York City Influencers this is pretty gross. I hope you're ready for this.
I'm just giving you the warning right now. Some New York City Influencers are finding the secret to love, dating yourself. These influencers, man. They're so full of themselves. Yeah.
They they they're trying to, take themselves out on fancy dinners, buying themselves flowers, probably live streaming the entire thing, all with captions like self love is the best love. Meanwhile, the rest of us are trying to decide if we have enough energy to reheat leftovers. Imagine sitting at a restaurant in New York watching some wannabe celebrity clink glasses with their own reflection with a caption like, to me, the love of my life. Next thing you know, they'll be proposing to themselves, saying I do, getting divorced from themselves, saying I just need to focus on me right now. If you're truly happy alone, that's fantastic.
But if you're out here documenting your self romance for clout, you're not dating yourself. You're just desperate for likes, really. I mean, anyway, let's just move on from this. I have nothing else to say. The New Orleans Saints, they hired Kellen Moore as their new head coach yesterday.
Moore, of course, last seen winning a Super Bowl as the offensive coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles. He'll now be in charge of the Saints who all who last won a Super Bowl fifteen years ago and haven't made the playoffs since 2020. Nevada sportsbooks are celebrating a record breaking win of $22,100,000 from Super Bowl fifty nine, the highest ever for the state. The Philadelphia Eagles victory over the Kansas City Chiefs played a big part in the success of the sportsbooks, which also cleaned up on player props, especially with Saquon Barkley not scoring a touchdown. The Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl fifty nine win has set a new record for merchandise sales in the first twenty four hours after a championship.
After the big win on Sunday, Eagles fans bought more team stuff than any other fan base in history with sales flooding in from all 50 states and over 60 countries. Dallas Mavericks fans, they're still very upset that the team traded star Luka Doncic to the LA Lakers earlier this month. Two fans were removed from removed by Maverick security during Monday's loss to the Sacramento Kings. One fan was taken after he mouthed fire Nikko, meaning the team's GM Nikko Harrison, when he appeared on the arena's jumbotron. Another was removed for an inappropriate T shirt that had some curse words on it about the trade, of course.
Anthony Davis, getting hurt in his first game, being out for at least a month. Fans are only going to get angrier. That is it for your Shot Clock Sports update right here on KBAR one zero one. So LendingTree put out this article. Many drivers have a favorite car brand or one they hate seeing on the road.
Their distrust may be warranted whether they've had bad experiences with other drivers or they buy into another brand's reputation. LendingTree found out that Tesla, Ram, and Subaru drivers are among the worst. They have they have had 36.94, incidents, accidents, DUIs, speeding, and citations per well, 36.94 per 1,000 drivers from the beginning of last year to the end of last year, up significantly from the late twenty twenty three analysis. Mercury, Pontiac, Cadillac have the best drivers. Mercury drivers, only 18.63 incidents per 1,000 drivers nationally, about half the rate among Tesla.
So not only is the Tesla just ugly to look at when you see it driving around, but also could be a danger around you. Especially if you see a Tesla with a 1J license plate, you might as well just not even drive even remotely close to that vehicle. Today's question for the peach throne, which is coming up here in just a little bit during the, 4PM hour. What super minor thing annoys you? This has been happening or this has been going on for the past, like, hour of me trying to figure out as to why this computer in studio, all of a sudden, anytime I try searching for something, it goes to Yahoo instead of Google.
And I've tried many different guides. Now I don't need some IT person to call in and try helping me out here. I feel like there was something that was installed that totally took over the browser or something like that. I I've tried, like I said, many different guides trying to figure this whole thing out. Man, it sucks because nobody uses Yahoo or DuckDuckGo, whatever that is.
Everyone uses Google. Even when I open a new tab, it goes to, like, a blank search bar, and it goes right to Yahoo. Very weird. So, yeah, if you have a if you have that answer for today's to peach their own question, what super minor thing annoys you, you can always call in ahead of time as well. (208) 535-1015.
pit party on k Bear one zero one. If you're looking to meet people beyond the screen, you know, Valentine's Day in two days. If you're looking to find that special somebody, local, entrepreneur, Taylor Ann Bertonshaw. I saw this article from East Idaho News. Taylor Ann Bertonshaw has launched Phloii, p h l o I I, a brand new dating app that's shaking things up.
It's designed for people of all ages offering a safe, verified space to connect. I believe it's all about just bringing people together. Bert and Shaw has partnered with local establishments to help their business by bringing people together in real life interactions rather than hiding behind a screen. I mean, if you use Tinder, any one of the dating apps, you gotta scroll. You don't need to scroll.
You gotta swipe. You gotta text back and forth, finally set up that first date. This is all just about meeting up in public right away. And I'm glad there's a local entrepreneur doing something like this. It's pretty cool.
Phloi, p h l o I I. You can read more about it from eastidahonews.com. So I follow this, Instagram account that I just recently found out about. I believe it's called disturb everything or that might just be the series that he does. Maybe I maybe I don't know his username.
I think it's now that I think about it, c h I boom, something like that. But he has this series on his Instagram called Disturb Everything, and he plays the most, I would say, annoying song. Not not necessarily annoying. I shouldn't say it's the most annoying. I should say it's one of the most annoying songs of all time.
I don't know how he found out about this track, but it's essentially a dance track from another culture, but it features a scream that if you were to blast this on any speaker anywhere publicly, you would be kicked out immediately. This is this is the I fast forwarded to the scream. I'm gonna play it for you right here. It's like he just walks around. I think he's over in Africa, but he walks around with the giant JBL speaker.
He also has massive headphones on him to make it seem like, oh, he's trying to listen to that song on his headphones, but it's really going through the speakers. So people go up to me like, dude, what do you what what's wrong with you? If I find out the username, I'll make sure to share it on the air. It's it's such a funny series. Everyone, every single year when it comes to the Super Bowl halftime show wants to have some sort of rock or metal act that will never happen.
I keep repeating myself saying it'll never happen. I'm hoping I can be wrong, but even if it were to be true, even if for some reason, like, you know, Metallica headlines the Super Bowl halftime show next year, they'll perform with unplugged instruments. It'll it'll be a prerecorded thing. You'll see even if they were to perform that people would still complain about it. Rockfeed was saying the best chance to have Metallica perform at the Super Bowl is next year because it's gonna take place in San Francisco, home of the Metallica headquarters where they rehearse, record albums, etcetera.
And I'm just thinking, like, there's still gonna be a ton of complaints. You're still gonna have fans that don't necessarily they'll still refuse to watch it for some reason. And I think Jay z is also running it, which I'm not saying he's not a fan of Metallica. I know Snoop Dogg's a fan of Metallica. There's this really bad cover of Sad But True on YouTube that I'm sure you can still find because I watched it years ago.
But they would have to lip sync. They would have to have the instruments unplugged like the Red Hot Chili Peppers. It wouldn't be as good as just watching Metallica through the never or something like that or going to see them live. Are they are they going on tour? I think they are on tour, but they're doing, like, three stops in major stadiums, or maybe that already happened.
I'm not exactly sure. I try my best to keep track of all the tours happening, but I haven't heard anything of what Metallica is up to. Maybe this summer, they'll announce something. Who knows? If there's anything funnier or should I say worse than people freaking out at fast food employees or those parents who take kids sports a little too seriously.
Now as a guy who grew up playing baseball first then basketball from the age of 13 all the way till my second year of college, I've dealt with a lot of games, a lot of different parents in the audience. Some of them, you know, flipping out at the referees, some of them getting kicked out. My team, at one point, got kicked out of the, when I get kicked out of, but we had to get escorted out of Compton High School because one of my teammates decided to push one of their best players, one of the best players in the nation named Isaiah Bailey. He dunked the ball, was hanging on the rim. My teammate got upset, frustrated, and for some reason, just decided to push him as he was hanging from the rim.
Everyone freaked out, and we're at Compton High School out of all places. But, I was reading the story out of Seattle where the police responded to a report of an irate parent accused of pushing two teen hockey referees so hard they were knocked onto the ice during a youth hockey game at the Kraken Community Iceplex in Northgate. Now as you could imagine, the worst possible thing happened to this parents. Happened to this parent, I should say. The teen referees, they're 13 and 14 years old.
It's just a casual hockey game. You always get the those weird dads in the audience that for some reason just flip out. And this guy is now getting national coverage, most likely gonna face some jail time. His kid is not gonna have a dad all because he got frustrated at the this teenage referee's call and pushed him flat out on the ice. I feel like also those kids will never want to referee a game ever again.
I was trying to decide which story to do for what the headline just now, if I should do this, guy who got drunk and went onto a, riding lawnmower plowed over mailboxes. But I kinda like this story a little bit more, this possum with a sweet tooth recovering at a wildlife rehab facility in Nebraska from a really bad tummy ache because, well, the possum decided to eat an entire Costco chocolate cake that was just sitting there on the table in a family's backyard. The, the owner said, I always have a house full and we cook a lot. And when you run out of room in the fridge, you just sit it on the table outside in the winter. She says her son walked outside and found the possum curled up on the outdoor sofa, which was just covered in chocolate paw prints.
He said the cover for the cake was on the floor, the entire dessert gone. It was clear the animal wasn't feeling well, so they called the humane society to come come get him and take him to Nebraska Wildlife Rehab for treatment. They're giving him about three weeks to reset his diet before returning him to the wild. I I don't even wanna be there for that big mess when that cake makes an exit if you know what I'm talking about. K Bear one zero one, if you missed out on it, last week.
Was it already last week or the week before? I'm not sure. But I interviewed Shane Told, the lead singer, the emo legend himself of, Silverstein, one of the nicest dudes out there. I got that, on demand podcast. That interview finally uploaded wherever you get your podcast.
You can even watch the video version of it on our YouTube channel at k Bear one zero one RMG. It's time stamped. I put a lot of effort into time stamping the thing, so go and listen to it. Let me know what you think of the entire thirty plus minute conversation. I never aired any part of it just because it would it was better off by itself as one big conversation that you can just listen to if you were interested in doing so in the conversation that I had with Shane Told of Silverstein.
Once again, shout out to him. The band is having two albums out this year. Anti Blume coming out February 21, and then another album later this year. They said they had Shane said they had, like, 20 something songs that they were dividing between two albums. They couldn't cut any of the songs out because they're all just that good.
And so far, those singles they put out, confession and don't let me get too low, and a couple of others have been downright awesome. So I'm excited for the rest of those albums, and we'll see how, the tour goes for them. They were just in Salt Lake City not that long ago. I was sad to miss out on it, but I'm hoping they'll come back around at some point. Time for today's to pitch their own question.
Yesterday's went extremely well. So what's something that's super minor that instantly just annoys you? Already have a good amount of answers on the Facebook post at k Bear at one zero one Idaho rock and metal. Bryce using sale and sell incorrectly. Junior b o at concerts.
B o in general. B o in general. When a dishwasher is loaded with inefficiency from Chili Dog, the notorious, Chili Dog. Jeff loud chewing. I did see a few people saying loud chewing.
My dad used to be that guy that would do that all the time. I'm glad I don't have to eat dinner with that guy anymore. I still miss him. I still love to eat food with him. Don't get me wrong.
But at least I have to sit next to the guy here next to my ear the whole time. What's something super minor that instantly annoys you? Call in right now. (208) 535-1015. Hey, K Bear.
What's a super minor thing instantly annoys you? What's up, Beaches? This is Vortex. I would have to say default ringtones on phones. Especially when they play loudly, and then, like, some boomer has it on their phone, and then they do that weird, like, head tilt backward looking down motion.
And they they proceed to stare at the screen for, like, ten seconds. And then Yeah. There's so many ways to get real music ringtones these days, you know? And then they forget how to swipe right to answer or they they you don't have to swipe right anymore. You just have to click the green button.
They it takes them, like, ten seconds to finally do it. The same the same thing goes for, like, self checkout. I think for some reason, just staring at the screen will help them out. It's not to just completely insult boomers in one break, but, I mean, I I have dealt with a lot of them as of late going to these different grocery stores. And sure enough, I'm waiting in line at self checkout.
I see somebody completely ignoring the 15 items or less rule and just trying their best to ring up everything, and they can't. So then they they stare at the screen or they stare at the worker thinking that's some sort of sign to be like, come help me now type of thing. Yes. Well, hey, if the walker fits True. Right.
True. Some people saying whistling when it comes to my to peach their own question. What's something super minor that instantly annoys you? I forgot little Russell used to, walk the hallways whistling all the time around here. It's gotten awfully quiet in the halls ever since he left.
He's now flourishing in Japan, or at least I'm hoping he's having a great time in Japan. He's been dreaming about going there for quite some time. I'm glad he's finally doing so. Captain Zach, Zach, same people on their cell phone while driving, not using their blinkers, also being lazy with shopping carts, all are reasonable. Phone calls from, Lisa, which I'm definitely not the person to text all that often anymore.
I I used to text quite a lot, but then I found it extremely annoying, especially if I'm sitting there playing video games and I gotta pause whatever I'm doing, pick up the phone, start typing out. Forget it. Just call, get the conversation over with, and be done with it. When grown adults don't push their chairs in. Yeah.
Another another reasonable one. There was somebody that said the words good morning, and I'm wondering who ruined that for them. If you have an answer for it, to peach their own, call in right now. Otherwise, I'll just move on to something else. What's something super minor that instantly annoys you?
K Bear, what is happening? When people don't follow the rules of the road on the grocery aisle with their shopping carts. Like, driving down the wrong side of the road with their shopping cart. I would also say when people, like, walk in or walk even we even walk out, they walk out the entrance door in the exit door, and then they give you that look like, why are you block blocking my way type of thing. Yes.
The rules of the road apply to the grocery store lanes. Drive down the right side of the road and don't pull out of your lane into the main lane without stopping first. Now I have to admit, I am that guy that weaves in and out of people at, at stores because usually, for the most part, there's, like, some family altogether walking in unison in front of me. And then I go around, and then I I have to go back around again because there's somebody else in the way. I I don't know if I'm just a fast walker or my strides are too long for most people.
I don't know. I'm not sure. Hey, K Bear. What's something that's super minor that annoys you? Hey.
When they don't clear the timer on the microwave. Oh, yeah. Yeah. When there's, like, forty three seconds left, and you're wondering why the microwave's not working there for a second? I get it, man.
