Ep. 129 - Viktor Wilt's Couch Confessions: Idaho Falls Construction Chaos - 2/13/2025

play Play pause Pause

Victor, thanks for joining the start of Peach's Pip Party. Yay. I'm so happy to be joining. Well, I figured you would, wanna get away from that classy mayhem that you've been going through the past couple of days. Yeah.

I'm, sleepy. I was sitting on the couch in the break room. I was like, wow. This is a couch. I saw the new curtain that, Josh put up.

Mhmm. Could rip it off the wall, use it as a blanket, lay on that couch, go to sleep. How mad would Josh be if you just ripped that curtain right off the wall? I bet he'd be pretty mad. I just hung that up, bro.

I'm sleepy, and I need a blankie. He probably couldn't freak out because he's that that break room's on that end of the building right next to Andrea. Yeah. And if you were to freak you out, everything could be heard. That's right.

That's right. So it's a good spot to do so. Right. So just next time, throw a pie in his face, tell him he sucks or something like that. Yeah.

Just be like, you didn't do a very good job, so I'm taking this down. And now it's nap time. That old Hawk Studio looks like an interrogation room almost now. Oh, it it it'll get there. I'm I'm wait I'm waiting for that fold out chair to be sitting in the middle of the light right above it because there's another that dark curtain around.

But, the reason why I also wanted you to join the show for the very beginning of Peach's Pit Party is because we wanted to talk about another first world problem. Oh. Construction around Idaho Falls. Okay. There's some of that going on.

Well, starting tomorrow Oh, no. You know that intersection? The the HIT Road intersection of the 20 Fifth Street traffic light right by grocery outlet in the Grand Teton Mall Oh, yeah. Completely closed off. HIT in 20 Fifth?

Yep. Now have they finished HITT in Seventeenth? I I am not sure. But I did see here the well, the interior lanes of the road will be impacted. Traffic will experience a lane closure for the left turn lane across the structure approaching 20 Fifth Street from the south according to a news release from the city of Idaho Falls.

Okay. 20 Fifth from the South. Alright. So making a left, you know, at Grocery Outlet going toward, like, PetSmart. Which sucks because Grocery Outlet's the place I go to quite a lot.

Yeah. That's where I found one of the workers listening to me because I heard my voice from his car Oh. As I was going inside. Nice. I'm like, Yeah.

I I go there, you know, often enough, but lately, I I don't know. I've I haven't been finding the, beverage selection that I like. Oh, not at the bar. I know. Come on, grocery.

I'll get me some of them cheap beverages. I even texted you. I'm like, hey. The, kombucha is for for sale in the back. The far left.

I forgot to go back there. I've had a couple of them. They're pretty good at the sparkling cranberry. I I like pretty much all kombucha. There's a there's a brand that they have that's really cool.

It has I I think Gojira would approve. It's literally a whale with wings. I've I've seen that one. It it's pretty good stuff. Pretty good stuff.

But the the the the bottle kombucha that was like the sparkling cranberry and I saw it had like 0.5% alcohol in it. I was like, woah. I'm getting crazy. Peach is getting crushed. I I drank that on a Sunday afternoon.

Just falling all over the house. That's right. I'm gonna wash my bed sheets. Sheet Sunday. Alright.

Topple over. Sounds like hit road. I'm just not gonna go down it for a while. Wow. That that's me.

How fast do you think the comments turn negative, Victor? That's what I'm asking. First comment. First comment. You're right.

Yeah. First comment's gotta be negative. Oh, man. It's like I I I think about us when we have to go through, comments about, I don't know, playlists, us as personalities, whatever it may be. But I would say it's much much more worse to be in charge of the city of Idaho Falls social media page.

And I don't know what people expect. You have to do road work. Like, it's annoying. It sucks, but it has to be done. We already, like, hit Road Seventeenth and Sunnyside.

There are certain times a day I will not drive on them because we have too much traffic. Like, we should not have congestion like you'd get in a big city. It's it's gotten bad. So It's gotten extremely bad, especially here on Sunnyside. Yeah.

Trying to leave here every day during the peak rush hour, it sucks. I have to alter my commute because of other people. Yeah. And you you could go to the very end of the parking lot and have traffic backed up all the way down past that other building basically by where the road turns into a neighborhood. Absolutely.

You know, it it so they gotta get the work done. I know it's annoying. I mean but you can get by everybody. They had Hit Road and, Woodruff. No.

Woodruff and, Seventeenth closed off for months and months and months. You know? So I had to take an alternate route to get to work every day and home. Wow, Peaches. I survived.

You know? I was able to do it. When they closed down that intersection, like, they had they had those, reporters interviewing the business owners or the at least the some of the spokespeople for those businesses because they were getting affected. And I wonder if I'll if I'll wanna go to Grocery Outlet now with this construction going on. Or if I see a detour sign, I'll be like, you know what?

Maybe Walmart's my choice now. Yeah. You know, the only people I think should be complaining are those business owners. But, also, it has to be done. And then it, like That intersection in particular, it gets real bad.

Oh, yeah. It gets extremely crowded, especially around, like, 05:30. Forget about it. I mean, I hate driving after I get off of here because there's so many people just in the way. Yeah.

Dude, I I get it. I'm lucky I leave before it gets too crazy. But even then, I mean, it takes me twice as long to get home as it does to get to work. You're lucky I couldn't find the wall. For some reason, it's buried underneath these, screens here.

Oh, good for you. I was about to hit you with that. Oh, good for you. How did you get some time off, but then I realized you also sacrifice a good portion of your morning. I get to wake up a little bit later.

Yeah. For the most part. It would probably result in my death, you know. You think so? Nah.

You know, I I don't think that, the sleep cycle of people who have to be to work at 6AM is natural. I think it goes against our instincts and it it'll probably be the end of me. Well, I know Woody, from The Woody Show. He's heavier than you big time. I think he weighs the same amount as I do, but he's much shorter.

Okay. And he wakes up at 01:30 in the morning to go to the studios. Horribly unhealthy. And I'm thinking, you know what? He's older than you too.

He seems for the most part to be doing just fine. Watch me say this right now, and tomorrow the news pops up that Woody has is no longer with us. Exactly. That would suck. Dude, I mean, I've I've seen a number of morning hosts that just quit because of how brutal it is.

The hours do suck. Yeah. Yeah. It's tough. The the, morning host at Spokane's rock station, KHTQ, he quit, well, he put up a message about quitting yesterday.

He's just like, sorry, morning people. I don't know how you do it. He's been at it for a while. That's almost I thought the I thought the call letters were cutie for a second. No.

I was like, wait. What? Nope. K two koo. K two koo.

Yeah. They're a good station, but, yeah, getting up early, man. You know? And we're lucky here because the commute's short to get here. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. If you're Imagine driving from Stevenson Ranch to, like, Burbank, California. Oh, yeah, dude. And then you ride home. Ugh.

Oh, yeah. You're terrible. The worst would be middays. Middays would be awful. Afternoon, you're kinda you're leaving around, like, seven.

Maybe you have a meeting after the show's over. You're out of there by, like, 07:38. But middays, you get the bad drive to and from work. No wonder the midday lady for alt ninety eight seven just got up and left. She was like, I'm sick and tired of this.

I'm not getting paid enough. I think she's still doing somewhat of a show there, but she's more so now with her family in North Carolina because she couldn't support herself in Southern California with iHeart's wages. Well, yeah. I mean, you've seen the job listings for radio in Southern California before. Layoffs.

IHeart being cheap. Like, holy cow. If they're, you know, paying less than McDonald's, you know, you you're gonna go work McDonald's. Doesn't that suck? Like, can you imagine, like, you're a teenager and ran a McDonald's making more than a radio personality has been doing that for I don't know.

Who who knows how long? I'll I'll bet the average McDonald worker makes more money than the average radio person. We gotta find that out. I bet it's true. I bet we gotta go to crappy radio jock and say, hey.

We conducted this experiment, and we went to our local McDonald's and we asked them how much do you make. Yeah. I I would bet that the average McDonald's worker makes more than the average radio person. Wow. You know, especially if you exclude Howard Stern, you know, like the all the Hoaxes.

Yeah. Big boy. The few that are making good bucks. Yeah. Because that's not typical of radio.

There's a handful of radio people making all the money and everybody else I mean, I've looked at jobs before where somebody's like, dude, you should apply in Chicago. And I'm like, well, what does that pay? Minimum wage? I'm like, minimum wage in Chicago. Yeah.

Sorry. No wonder your city's full of homeless people. It's like, come on. Like, dudes, I don't know how these radio companies well, most of them just don't hire new people. They just eliminate the position.

Yeah. They eliminate it or they get the AI to Yeah. Take over. Or a voice tracker from somewhere else. Right.

They get Mario Lopez. That's how I know when Victor's unfortunately out of here is when I see mornings with Mario Lopez on Keter one zero one. As I'm sure you're well aware, Kanye West has been off the rails, especially more so as of late. I just saw the breaking news that him and his girlfriend, Bianca, just split apart, so I know he might be, devastated right now. Well, he had this, particular shirt for sale that I'm not gonna go into detail about, but it was very offensive, highly offensive to a lot of people.

And so I don't know who started this video in retaliation to what Kanye was doing, but somebody used AI to sort of put together, a whole bunch of different celebrities wearing, shirts that were protesting Kanye. And so Scarlett Johansson, she was one of those celebrities in that video. She saw it and is now calling for AI regulation after her likeness appeared in that fake video alongside other celebrities protesting Kanye. You had Drake in there. You had Jerry Seinfeld, Steven Spielberg, Adam Sandler, all wearing T shirts that, you know, were going back at Kanye, which is pretty crazy.

I mean, I did I saw the video for myself. It looked realistic. And there was a different video that I saw recently that featured AI mister beast, AI Margot Robbie. A lot of people are gonna fall for AI in the near future. Just recently on Facebook, Victor and I talked about the, the people who are fall the boomers who are falling for AI of, like, a soldier coming back home.

It clearly looks cartoony. It looks obviously fake, but you have these people falling for stuff like that. I just saw a picture of the the most cartoony looking grandpa, and this guy clearly made an AI post saying, look at my grandpa. He just turned a hundred and 30 eight. And there is people in the comments saying, happy birthday.

Bless you. All this stuff. And if they're falling for that, oh, man. They're certainly gonna fall for whatever AI has. However advanced AI gets in the near future.

Yesterday, the nominees were announced for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, one of the biggest jokes out there. This Wednesday was the first day to cast your ballot into the, fan votes for the class of 2025. And Phish, out of all bands, is off to the early lead with just under 27,000 votes. Billy Idol's second, just over 20,000, followed by Soundgarden will with close to, Sydney Lauper as well at four eighteen thousand. Joe Cocker.

Wow. Bad Company's at six. The last person on there is this artist named Mana. I forgot exactly who that is. Mariah Carey, second to last.

Mariah Carey going into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame just goes to show how dumb this whole thing actually is. Well, this is kind of disturbing. If, Reddit trends are any indication, it seems that teens are falling in love with AI. One teenager asked the, chatbot companion Jarvis, can we fall in love with AI? Yeah.

Another Redditor said, I think I'm in love with AI. Imagine having a partner that is available to you just by opening an app, and they're ready to talk to you about anything they wrote. Imagine saying nearly anything and knowing that not only is your partner not going to judge you, but also will support you. So I figured I would give this a try. I have Chat GPT opened up here.

You know, tomorrow's Valentine's Day and all that. Hey, Chat GPT. Would you be my Valentine? Let's see. Oh, that's sweet of you to ask.

Well, I can't be your Valentine in the traditional sense. I'm always here to chat and keep you company. What are your plans for Valentine's Day to do this show, and that's it? That sounds like a chill way to spend the day. What kind of show are you doing?

Oh, I'm not logged in. It it knows who I am if I'm logged in. I'll say I'm Peaches on KBAR one zero one. Oh, nice. Peaches on k Bear one zero one.

Sounds like if you got a cool gig going. What's the vibe of your show? It must not memorize what other people put into it, but I think, Chad GPT just rejected me in, being my valentine for Valentine's Day. Oh, well, I guess I'll eat the chocolates myself. That's fine.

And this right here is your Shot Clock sports update. Some NBA fans and players aren't happy with the format of the all star game, which will be played on Sunday. It will feature four teams facing off in short games to determine a winner. One player that does support the new deal is Steph Curry, who was an inspiration for the change. Curry visited the NBA offices last summer and can and commissioner Adam Silver asked him for input on the game.

Curry suggested shortening the game, putting things putting in things that could bring out players' competitiveness. Curry said that Silver didn't have any ideas at the time, and my advice was that it's not a bad thing to change it up entirely, try something new, knowing you can always come back to the traditional format if whatever you decide doesn't work. Dallas Mavericks general manager, Nico Harrison, just might be the most hated man in the city after the Luka Doncic trade. I've mentioned this over the past couple of days. Tuesday night, Harrison attended a game between SMU and Pitt.

And once SMU's student section realized that he was in the building, they started up a fire, Nico chant. Unlike the Mavericks fans who were ejected because of those words on Monday in Dallas, The students were able to stay in the arena after their chant was over. Pretty crazy. Right? Well, in tennis also, the US Open is overhauling its mixed doubles event this year in a big way.

Some of the biggest doubles players in the world aren't happy. The Open is moving to the the Open is moving the event the to the week of singles qualifying and is staging it over just two days. Only 16 pairs will compete over the two days, and the scoring system will be changed to beat the to the change to best of three set matches with sets played only four games instead of six. Eight players or eight players. Eight pairs will earn entry based on their combined singles ranking with eight teams receiving wildcards.

That basically shuts out players who focus on doubles. Former doubles world number one, Rajeev Rahm. Is that how you say it? Rajeev? Rajeev Rahm?

Said if it's a proper tournament, we should want the best players in the world competing for the title, And at that moment, at the moment, that is not going to happen. That does it for your Shot Clock sports update right here on Cabaret one zero one. Yesterday, we talked about the, brands, the car brands that caused the most and least accidents out there on the road. I think the most was Tesla. There was also Subaru, and there was one more on there that I'm completely forgetting.

But the ones that you rarely ever see on the road were the ones that caused the least amount of accidents, like Pontiac or whatever it was. I I'm honestly sorry that I forget this. But, at the same time, they released this, what is exactly the best selling car of 2024? This SUV ended the f Ford f '1 fifty's forty year run as the best selling vehicle. I was quite shocked about this because I'm like, the Ford f one fifty is that popular?

Like, I know it's a popular truck, but I didn't expect it to be that popular. Let's just go to the top three. Honda CR V, which my mom has, very stereotypical SUV there. The Ford f one fifty at number two. We just talked about that.

The Toyota RAV four. Toyota, honestly, one of the best brands out there. But the thing is for me is that I can't car shop like a regular person. I have to do, hey. Does it fit my tall butt, game?

And most cars don't. You'd be surprised on how many cars don't necessarily fit me. And I get questions like, hey. How do you fit in your Santa Fe? That one's actually quite roomy.

The car that I had before, the Honda Element, I am extremely sad that they discontinued that car back in 2011. I thought there was a rumor that they were gonna bring it back, but I don't think that's the case anymore, unfortunately. It would be cool if they did because that was the roomiest car. I loved the thing. I used to put the seats up in the back, and you would have, like, this giant roomy vehicle.

It may look like a small cube car on the outside, but when you sit inside of it, it's like one of those clown cars. Tiny on the outside, but huge on the inside. I honestly wonder about this a lot. Most recently, I saw something funny that my friends and I were talking about on the, Discord call. McDonald's just started doing the Angel Reese special.

If you don't know who Angel Reese is, she's now is she a college player, or is she now a WNBA player? Might be a WNBA player. She played for LSU, and she did really well. And I don't know if she's in the WNBA now or not, but, anyway, that's besides the point. I saw this, and then yesterday, my friends and I were making fun of the, the Blake Griffin ads for Red Lobster.

Blake Griffin, NBA superstar, dunked the ball extremely well. That was about it. Played for my least favorite NBA team, the LA Clippers, for quite some time. Did I admire the guy as a player? Sure.

He was fun to watch. He dunked the ball aggressively, dunked over people. But later in his career, as predicted, his career had a downfall because he couldn't dunk like he used to, which happens to everybody. And he retired, I think, last year or the year before. And now he's doing his own thing.

He started his own company. But I was thinking, like, is he is he down bad for money if he's now doing advertisements for Red Lobster out of all places? I was even reading more into it that you can go to Red Lobster and order something Blake's way, kinda like how you can go to Jersey Mike's and get it Mike's way. I think you don't necessarily add on to an order for Red Lobster for the Blake Griffin the the Blake's way. You have to, just order the thing Blake's way.

It's, like, $53 for lobster and all this stuff. And I think Red Lobster filed for bankruptcy not that long ago, so they must be they must both be desperate. Blake Griffin desperate for money. Red Lobster wanting that former NBA star to sort of bring in a new audience. I don't know.

Now this is one of those things where I know it's stupid, but it's going to sell out for sure. No smell draws people in quite like the aroma of a nice pepperoni pizza. Right? Well, Domino's has come up with a way to take that smell and put it into a perfume for Valentine's Day. They've launched this limited edition pepperoni pizza inspired for perfume called eau de passion.

The link sent me to the New York Post article. I was hoping it would send me to the actual link to buy it because I wanna see how much it's gonna sell for. It's gonna be available on their website between February 10 and the seventeenth. Okay. That's right now.

We're right in the middle of it. Want to oh, so you have to fill out oh, it's one of those where you can't directly buy it. You have to win it. Yeah. You have to fill out the whole entry form.

Do do do I have to be oh, I have to be in The UK. So that's pointless talking about this whole thing. Okay. Alright. Do I don't know anybody in The UK that's currently living over there that I could send it to if I did win it and they could send it to me.

So this whole thing was just pointless. Why is it in the radio prep? It's only available in The UK. Victor, I can't believe you're here so late. I just decided to move in.

You know? It's almost like we prerecorded this. Yeah. Kinda weird. The magic of technology.

Oh. So what up? I saw this, crazy article about recording artists wanting congress to force radio stations to pay them for their songs. Yes. I I saw this as well.

Is this a, performance royalty? It's the American Music Fairness Act would ensure performers, not just songwriters, get paid when AM FM radio stations play their music. Yeah. How about you go after all of those streaming services that don't pay you well? Right.

You know, who pays really good royalties already? Radio. And, yeah, they pay them to the songwriters because those are the people who are credited in the publishing with writing the songs. If you wanna perform a song and make money off of it, what you do is you go do a concert. Well, what what you do.

More than 300 recording artists like Celine Dion, Gloria Estefan, James Taylor, Jelly Roll was even on here. Lil Jon as well. Aerosmith, Barbra Streisand, Mariah Carey, they're all arguing they're missing out on potentially billions of dollars of royalties that they feel they are entitled to. Yeah. Because they are the performer.

Right? And, unfortunately, that's just not how, getting paid as a performer works when it comes to royalties. And, again, you know, why are they not taking this fight to Spotify and YouTube? And if they do this, as far as I understand, you know, like bars, if you have a if you have live music whatsoever. Or, like, touch tunes?

Touch tunes. If you have, even a a boom box playing music, you have to pay royalties for music, to be, you know, played in your establishment. So this if they implemented a performer royalty so that more individuals get, you know, additional royalties, it's gonna affect so many different places negatively. Now I'm not saying artists shouldn't be paid, but the way songwriting works, and music publishing is the the writers of the song get the royalties. That's just how it is.

And performers make money through their record deals as well as live performance and things like that. You know? I I can't think of a a comparison to make, but they've been trying to do this for years. Who knows what'll happen? Who knows what'll happen?

But I tell you what, you know where it would have a horrible impact? Right here. Oh, yeah. For sure. Right here.

Because we I I have to deal with looking at our royalty payments and things like that that we pay out here. It's tons of money. I figured. Tons of money, you know, with all the different stations you have. I figured we'd pay artists so much more compared to, like, what you just said, Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, the old person Spotify.

For sure. Because it's based on and this is information you can look up online, so it's not like I'm giving away some kind of trade secrets. But the amount that you pay in royalties as a radio station is based on the amount of revenue you make. So, you know, a a big company in LA is going to pay a lot more for royalties than, you know, smaller companies in smaller cities. But do you think Spotify is paying those kind of royalty rates based on their revenue?

Far as I know, no. No? So The letter was I was looking at the letter here. For decades now, corporate broadcasters have unjustly exploited an an into an antiquated loophole in the law to profit from advertising generated from an unlimited use of free music. It's not free.

Exactly. We pay for it. I've seen the receipts. We pay a lot of money to play these songs. Each year, AMFM radio stations play nearly a billion songs, and each year, giant radio corporations rake in billions in advertising dollars while refusing to pay a single cent to the artists behind the music.

To the artists that performed them. Because you have a lot of artist peaches that don't write their own songs. Oh, yeah. I know. So It's happening quite a lot in even rock and metal now.

I see No. Cody from Wage War mostly doing a lot of the He's writing a lot of band songs, that guy, for sure. So I'm I'm sorry, but just because you appear on something, that doesn't mean you necessarily get royalties for it. Like, movie stars, for example. Back in the day, they would get you know, sometimes they'd cut a deal where they get royalties for rebroadcasting movies.

So, like, you know, if you happen to be, you know, one of the guys in Shawshank Redemption or Home Alone or The Christmas Story The Goonies. Yeah. One of these movies that's played on TV all the time, you'd be getting royalties from that. But now in the streaming age, that doesn't happen. And so there's a lot of, movie stars who were upset about that.

But, also, you had to have that kind of deal in place. Perhaps with their record labels, these artists could, you know, work a deal where, okay, I want a percentage of the publishing rights for the song regardless of the fact that I didn't write the song, you know, but they're not doing that. They just wanna get extra money out of radio. And, yeah, you know, if they wanna go after Spotify and Pandora, Apple Music, etcetera, but I don't believe they're paying, performer royalties, but let's look it up. I I highly doubt it.

It's really weird how they're trying to target radio out of all things. Like Yeah. Biggest supporters, especially of those artists that it just listed off. I mean, Jelly Roll, Aerosmith, Lin Manuel Miranda is even on that list too. Well, I bet there's a lot of country artists on there because a lot of country artists don't write their own music.

Oh, yeah. Chris Stapleton has written tons of songs for other artists. Exactly. I I remember Jake Owen throwing a tantrum because somebody made fun of him saying, you know, I mean, like, he can't write his own music or something, and he he got all bent out of shape. Let's see.

Spotify performance royalties. When an eligible here we go. Let's get right on to support.Spotify.com. Recording royalties to rights holders for recording streams on Spotify. So that's whoever owns the music and then publishing the money owed to a songwriter or owners of a composition.

Why are they only coming after radio? You know? Why? They might be trying to kill it off. Could be.

That's what I'm thinking. Is there they're not really there's a hidden thing behind this. There there's got I mean, like I said, this has been going on for a really long time. I think it ultimately is performers feeling like, hey. That's my song.

Even though I didn't write it, I just got in and sang or, you know, whatever. They just want extra money in trying to figure out ways to do it. But if you're going to implement that, do it across the board. And a lot of movie actors like we were talking about earlier when they were with the royalty checks, they were incredibly small. Yeah.

They're making, like, $14 at some point. So Sometimes it it it's not very much. Right. So I all this will do is further, you know, cripple radio, basically. And, yeah, the throw it around free really makes me mad because that is a manipulation of the information.

Radio pays more royalties than any of these other groups. At least last I checked, I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure. And, you you you can't say radio's playing songs for free. I think a while back, I tried making a sweeper that said radio should we love radio because music should be free, and you're like, get this out of here right now. Like, you were so mad about that.

I I mean, I don't think music should be free. But the way that music works is the people who write the songs get the money. You know? Performers get money for performing, going out, doing shows, getting licensing deals with Pepsi, and blah blah blah. Hey.

I'm Britney Spears. I'm gonna, you know, do this makeup commercial. There's a lot of different ways they can make money. Tons. Merch sales.

And it'll probably if they do implement a performance, royalty, I would assume they'll cut into you know, they're gonna, you know, move things around, and they'll probably take money away from the songwriters. And I'm sorry, but, the people who wrote the songs, in my opinion, deserve the money. Oh, definitely. They came up with it. You you know, put it all together.

You used your talent to go perform and sing on a song. 100%. Write your own songs. Write your own songs. Go have these songwriting teams of 10 people.

I I make it equivalent to, like, the guy who's the part of the group project that does all the heavy lifting, and then there's the person who's just charismatic that leads the entire presentation in front of the class. Yeah. Yeah. And they get equal credit. Yeah.

And that sorry. That's you know, I love artists, but if you want to get royalties for your music, you need to write your own music and do everything you can to re to retain the rights to your music so that you own as much of it as possible. Well, I figured I would talk about radio again, considering today is World Radio Day. Who celebrates it? People in the industry and only the people in the industry.

Nobody says, hey. I'm thankful for radio World Radio Day. Every single DJ that I know that I follow on social media has been posting about it, showing off where they've been, how long they've been doing this type of thing. I'm glad I am not one of those people who has to be moved around the entire country to then find employment for a fifteenth time and do a show for a different format and try to blend in with that city. That would suck.

That really would. And there's a Victor and I were just sort of teasing about this holiday earlier today about the, people who get tattoos of old microphones that, of course, are not being used at all. They're more so just a symbol of, like, oh, yeah. I'm in radio. Look at this old microphone tattooed to my arm.

Multiple people within the industry too have microphones, more than one, tattooed on them. If I were to ever get a tattoo, it wouldn't be a microphone. Why would I want that? Like, what if you're one of those employees that somehow gets laid off or fired or whatever, and then you have to deal with a microphone tattoo as an unemployed DJ? That would really suck, wouldn't it?

I don't know which story is weirder for today. A woman gave birth on a New York subway train or there's an emu on the lam. Police in Batesville, Mississippi, they're trying to track down an escaped emu who busted out of her owner's property property and is on the run. Police even shared a wanted poster for the flightless bird they've named Emu the great. What a creative name that is.

Warning residents not to approach her because she's known to charge at anyone standing in the way of its freedom. I mean, it's a giant bird. Emus can run surprisingly fast. They say she is specifically wanted on charges of felony fleeing disorderly conduct. And if you spot her, please notify us.

I mean, I'm sure she's pretty easy to spot. Oh, look. There's an emu. It's five foot seven. Five foot seven.

A weird looking bird. Emus, ostriches, they're both weird looking. They specifically urge people not to honk their car horns at her because it'll scare her. I I I wanna know how fast can emus run again? Emu top speed.

Because I I know you're not catching it on foot. 31 miles per hour, maximum sprint. Their long legs enable them to walk considerable distances or outrun danger. Imagine seeing that freaky learning looking bird just running at you. 31 miles per hour.

That could easily take anyone out. Obviously, I know about the game Mike Tyson's Punch Out. First released on the NES back in 1987, and in the thirty eight years the game has been around, no player was ever able to register a TKO on Tyson in less than two minutes. That was until now. The gamer, summoning salt, pulled off this amazing victory in one minute fifty nine point nine seven seconds.

The victory was the result of some crazy dedication as it took summoning salt over five years, seventy five thousand attempts to get the job done. I wonder how old is this dude? Could you imagine seeing this guy try to grind and get this? Did he get it on camera? I'm I'm sure he had to.

Right? Yeah. There it is. Mike Tyson in 01/5997. I have never given that game a try, but I know Mike Tyson in that game is one of the hardest bosses of all time in video game history.

If you ever look at, like, a hardest bosses list, he's always on there. And I would say it's probably oh, no. I shouldn't say that. What's harder, to knock him out in the game or knock him out in real life? Probably even real life now because, you know, he's in his sixties, but still, I wouldn't wanna wanna fight him.

If you want a funny subreddit to follow, r slash fridge detective is a pretty fun one. I just recently followed it about a week ago, and now I'm seeing people's fridges flood my timeline or my Reddit feed, whatever it's called when you go on to Reddit, your home page, your feed. Somebody just posted the refrigerator, and they have tons of drinks. Like, only drinks in this refrigerator. Besides some basic condiments on the shelf, you got different sodas, different juices.

They see Snapple, vitamin water, Gatorade, Powerade zero, Sunny d. I feel like this has to be some sort of family drink fridge they have in the garage from what it looks like. My my dream my dream as an adult is to have two refrigerators, one for the regular stuff like the foods and all that, but another one with that glass door on the front that has only drinks specifically for anybody who decides to come over. When I was growing up, my family, for some reason, was very weird about if I invited my friend over, my mom would take the dog, hide in the parents' bedroom, slam the door shut, wait for them to leave, and then come back out because I think they but not only my mom and my dad not only my mom, but my also my dad too. They were embarrassed by, I don't know, the the mess or something even though there wasn't a mess.

I I understand how they feel because whenever somebody decides to come visit me, like my friend, Bryson, if he were to come over right now, my place is a mess with just a little pile of clothes on the floor. It's not really a mess, but you exaggerate it in your head. It's like seeing yourself in a photo. But I would love to have my fridge full of drinks for friends, like my friends who are coming up from California in July. They're gonna be here for the fourth and all of that for a nice little almost a week little trip to come see me out here, see Idaho for the very first time.

I'll definitely have my fridge stocked up with different beverages for them, ask them what they like to have, and put that in there because I'm that type of friend for sure. But I might have to put my my fridge, currently in this subreddit, which has nothing in it. I think it has, like, two cartons of egg whites, my Brita filter, and a half gallon of milk that's half full and see what they think. Recently, we've been talking a lot about movies. Yesterday and today on the noon hour of Madness and Mayhem, we talked about weird screwing with the mind movies, the worst movies according to the certain podcast, the best movies.

And I was listing off different movies that I haven't seen. I obviously haven't seen a lot of the classics because I just never really cared for most of them. And usually, you get these people whenever you say something like, I haven't seen Pulp Fiction. What? You haven't seen that?

Like, did I not just say that? So what super popular movie have you never seen and people lose their minds when they find out? The Godfather movies from Matthew, Shawshank, or Titanic from Rob. Got a lot of answers so far on the Facebook page, on the main cable page, but I wanna hear your answer on the show right now. Call in at (208) 535-1015.

What's, what's that super popular movie that you've never seen that everyone freaks out when you say you haven't seen it? The Lion King. I I honestly have to say, I don't think I've seen it either in its entirety. I think I've just watched most of it through through through clips and stuff or partial watches. Like, it would be on the TV, and I would watch a majority of it.

Alrighty. Hopefully, Victor gets callers tomorrow for our traffic school powered by the advocates at 08:45. Otherwise, I'll have to do a lot of talking on the air. Like I said, it's a very weird time of the year where people are just not wanting to do anything, really. Oh, Oh, looks like I got somebody else here.

K Bear, how's it going? Hi. Good. I've never seen the Matrix movies. I I don't think I've, yeah, I haven't seen those movies either.

My dad has seen them on TV, and I think I've sat in the room while he's watching them. But I think I've only ever played the the video game. Yeah. And my husband's like, I've never seen that. I go, I've seen you watch it.

I see bits and pieces, but, no, I've never seen it. It's not that interesting, is it? You're like, yeah. That's okay. No.

I'm like, yeah. I'm not getting this. Right. Right. Well, thank you for that answer.

I appreciate it. Yep. Yep. Thank you. Have a good one.

Got another caller here. Wait. Did they hang up? Oh, they hung up on me. Darn it.

Well, if you have that answer, (208) 535-1015. Hey, K Bear. How's it going? Hey. How's it going?

What super popular movie have you never seen that people freak out when you say you haven't seen it? Star Wars. Just not interested you or what? I just have never been interested in it, and people get so mad when I saw I've never seen it. I would've never watched a single Star Wars.

You're not alone there. There's multiple people on the Facebook saying the exact same thing. I just was never interested, so I wouldn't watch it, and then people get mad. Mhmm. I actually had a cousin that got so mad that he he would get angry when I was when I told him I wouldn't watch it.

And they almost, like, try to force you to watch it too. I've noticed that. Yeah. Yeah. My my kids answer it.

My kids watch most of them. I leave the room when he watches them. Right. It's like just to prove a point now, I I will not watch you. Thanks for listening to Peach's Pip Party, the podcast.
