Ep. 163 - Rejected by Harvard? Eat Cake About It - 04/28/2025

play Play pause Pause

Another fine week ahead of us. It is Monday, 04/28/2025. That weekend, too short. Way too short. That one actually flew by.

And usually, I like to come back to work, but that one just felt like a, you know, blink of an eye. It's magically Monday. Saturday, decided to go to the Tom Segura show at the Mountain America Center. Already shared my, story with the people next to me during the noon hour of Madness and Mayhem about the, one lady that just, was not having it overall. Just did not wanna be there and cause the whole group to leave.

And then there was a bunch of people that were just completely wasted in my section, which, I mean, they're having fun. But one guy was like, dude, I caught the nachos and was high fiving others. No one knew who he was. He just was high fiving people. I mean, it's one way to make friends.

Right? I went to the show by myself too, and I I was sitting there in the seat. Josh from Classy ninety seven, of course, spots me because I'm very easy to spot in a crowd, takes a video of me from across the whole entire venue. And I'm gonna make an edit of that video because he texted it over to me. I'm gonna make an edit of that video posted on our socials at k Bear one zero one FM.

Looks like we got a we got someone that didn't guess the secret sound correctly. So now the jackpot is sitting at $576, the K Barre one zero one secret sound powered by the advocates injury attorneys. There's one more time today at the secret sound. I'll give out that cue to call. Someone will play, try to win all the money in the prize pot.

If they guess it incorrectly, the prize pot will officially hit $601. So listen now for that at some point this afternoon at 02:08 five three five 01:01 five Peach's Pit Party. We'll be back here in just a few. Well, here's a new trend on TikTok. Somebody by the name of CC over in Massachusetts, she she got rejected from a college.

So instead of being sorry or sad sad about it, she just baked herself a cake, called it a rejection cake. That TikTok video has over 5,000,000 views. Apparently, when colleges tell you you're not good enough, you don't cry, you just bake. Kids are now frosting cakes with the logos of the schools that ghosted them. Sorry.

You're too dumb for Harvard. Let's go ahead and eat chocolate cake. That's that's the way to cope with your feelings. Sure. So Idaho Gives twenty twenty five started today.

You can actually donate to any Idaho nonprofit that you would like to support through the Idaho Gives form, through the k barrel one zero one, Alta one zero one, or Cannonball one zero one apps. You can choose any one of the apps to access the same thing, or you can go to idahogives.org. And you can, like I said, donate money to any Idaho nonprofit. And this year, I decided to support once again the Snake River Animal Shelter. They do an amazing job of finding those wonderful wonderful pets forever homes, and those pets can stay there for an unlimited amount of time.

They're the only no kill shelter serving all of East Idaho, and it's always so tempting, really, to see one of their postings of a new cat that has just joined the shelter or a new puppy that's just joined and to adopt it right away. I think at one point I don't know if this is true or not, and I would love if somebody from Snake River Animal Shelter reached out to me about this because I don't know if this is true or not, but, supposedly, there was a cat there named Peaches. There was also a cat there named Victor, and, like, somebody was naming the cats after after k Bear Deegis. I mean, Peaches is a common name for a pet, I would think. Right?

I think Dave Portnoy, the founder of Barstool Sports, I think his dog's name is Peaches. I think no. I think it's miss Peaches or something like that. I don't know. But, anyway, if you wanna help donate to the Snake River Animal Shelter or find your own charity, your own nonprofit to donate to, go to idahogives.org or or like I said before, use the shortcut within the apps.

Peach's pit party on K Barrel 101, Idaho's only rock station. I'm extremely excited that I have the opportunity today to interview Rory of Dayseeker, and I'm not exactly sure when I'm gonna get that interview on the air. It might be today. It might be tomorrow. It'll more likely be tomorrow only because I have so much stuff to do today that I wanna have time to prepare this interview, have time for everyone to be able to tune in for it as well.

Say, hey. It's gonna air tomorrow during, like, the 4PM hour. I think I might most likely air it tomorrow during the 5PM hour. I'll keep you updated on all of our social media pages at KBAR one zero one FM, Rory Rodriguez of Dayseeker. Oh, man.

They're they're awesome. I've been a fan of that band ever since they dropped well, Dark Sun a couple years ago. Really started digging deep into their catalog. And I think one of their older albums from 2017, Waking is Dreaming, Something is Sinking. I think that whatever whatever that title is, it's a long one, but I love that album Vultures, especially.

It's a great track. I'm very excited to air my conversation tomorrow with Rory Rodriguez of Dayseeker. Hopefully, it's still gonna happen. Hopefully, there's no last minute cancellation, and I don't come on tomorrow and go, well, sorry, guys. I promised you this, but he's gonna have to reschedule.

I'll keep you updated. Like I said, K. Ferrer one zero one FM. For those that want to listen to the Rory Rodriguez interview, make sure to go check out the Artist Interrogations podcast available wherever you get your podcasts. Before the NFL draft started, Shidoor Sanders was believed by many to be the second best quarterback in the draft and was expected by many to be picked at number 21 in the first round on Thursday.

Well, that didn't happen. Sanders didn't get picked in rounds two or three on Friday either, but he did receive a prank call on Friday from someone pretending to be an NFL GM. Ouch. After he wasn't picked on Friday, some insiders suggested he return to college football. Others like Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton warned other teams that Sanders was going to be dangerous because of the chip on his shoulder.

Important fact to point out here, Payton also chose not to pick Sanders. The slide, which is one of the most memorable in draft history, ended when the Cleveland Browns traded up and picked Sanders in the fifth round at number 144 overall on Saturday. This was after picking quarterback Dylan Gabriel in the third round on Friday night. Last Thursday, quarterback Cam Ward was chosen one numb number one overall during the NFL draft by the Tennessee titans. At the time, there was some question whether Ward would be able to wear jersey number one because the team retired that number to honor hall of famer Warren Moon.

Well, Moon stepped up, gave his blessing to Ward to wear number one, and we'll see how he does this upcoming season. The Texas Rangers have launched a new promotion to get fans to keep coming back to Globe Life Field. The promotion is called a golden cricket, a golden chicken. It involves fans purchasing a mezzanine mezzanine ticket for the game tonight against the Athletics. If the Rangers win the game, fans get a free home home ticket to the next game.

The promotion will continue until the Rangers lose. The Rangers have a ten three record at home so far, which is tied for the best home record in the American League. That is it for your shot clock sports update right here on KBAR one zero one. Now I can see this turning political, hence why I won't ask you for to peach their own. What is something people are 100% brainwashed into believing they need?

An endless stream of clothes, accessories to follow every trend. I know, like, the most recent trend are baggy jeans. Like, if you're wearing skinny jeans, you're showing your age, apparently, according to the, younger crowd. I guess loose fitting, pants or loose fitting jeans are the way to go. Expensive weddings, another answer.

I I myself would love to do a giant, extravagant, expensive wedding if I had the money for it. And if, also, I had the future missus Peach for it as well. But neither of those are there. Okay? Replacing stuff instead of fixing it, that's sometimes what I do, to be quite honest.

Like, my trash can on the bottom, it's getting kinda dirty. And I'm thinking I'm like, you know what? Instead of trying to clean out this trash can, let me just go ahead and buy a new one. Forget it. What what is something people are 100% brainwashed into believing they need expensive funerals?

No. I don't believe in that. Just the person's dead. I feel bad for whoever has to bury me because the casket will have to be huge. Well, you only have one more time, apparently, to go see Devin Townsend perform live.

I saw his, last run of dates before he officially, says, I'm done. He says he's made the decision, announces indefinite break from touring, shares why in new statement. And I did see one of those stops. The only one close is Denver, Colorado at the Ogden Theatre. And I know for a fact Allegiant just announced recently nonstop flights to and from Denver.

It might not have been Allegiant. It might have been just the Idaho Falls Airport that announced those, but they they look pretty cheap, and the show's on May 21. I might need to well, that's next month. Yeah. I don't think I can because that's that's gonna be an expensive flight.

I gotta get a hotel. I gotta worry about my flight back. When is May 21? What day of the week is that? That is a Wednesday.

Oh, and the weekend before, we have the, classy ninety seven second chance prom at the waterfront that Saturday at May May seventeenth. And then May 18, it is Seether, POD, and Nonpoint at the, Mountain America Center, which I'm extremely excited for. But I don't think I'll be able to make it to Devin Townsend for the last official time he is touring. Well, according to him and who knows, sometimes well, most of the time, 98% of the time, bands announce these, hey. I'm going away.

And then for the right amount of money, they'll come back. Lots of people go online. They say they have an awful experience at a restaurant and vow to never dine out there again only to eventually return to that restaurant. But there's this woman named Carletta says she when she says she never wants to go to eat out again after what happened to her, it's hard to blame her. She was at this Mexican restaurant in Sandstone, Virginia sipping on a margarita.

All of a sudden, a baby snake fell out of the ceiling, bounced off her head, and landed in her in her drink. She says, I leaned in to take a sip. I noticed something hit me in the forehead, and I looked at my she looked at her husband like, what was that? She turned around, saw the snake in her margarita. It was moving.

It started wrapping around the straw. A customer walked over to help grab the snake from the drink, brought it outside. The restaurant offered to move her to another table, but she preferred to just leave instead. Afterward, she has said she is not going out to eat anytime soon. I mean, snakes falling from the ceiling could happen to your house too.

You know, your chances of a snake falling from the ceiling are never zero. I mean, we have ceiling tiles right above me. Who knows? Maybe at some point, maybe I should put, like, a fake snake in our roof, and somehow I don't know how I'd be able if it was remote controlled some way, if I had the engineering capability of putting some wheels on a snake or have have some contraption push a fake snake from the ceiling onto the board as Victor is doing his morning show and have a camera going the entire time, oh, man. That would make for a great viral video.

You ever find out something so simple, so stupidly easy that it feels like you unlocked a real life cheat code? I was reading this thread online where people were talking about real life cheat codes they discovered, and it's honestly hilarious how many of them are just basic life hacks we never think about, like being overly polite to customer service people. People said they get free upgrades, random discounts, better service, all because they're not not acting like entitled morons. Who knew please and thank you were basically magic spells. You know?

Another one, if you're late paying a bill, you can sometimes just call, act confused, and say, oh, I I I thought I paid that already. Half the time, they'll waive the late fee. Like, you're not even lying. You're just confused. Confused wins.

My personal favorite, if you walk anywhere like you belong, like you're supposed to be be there, people won't question you. Walk into hotel, act like you're staying there, free lobby snacks, maybe even sneak into the pool. I've talked about this before, about the whole, like, hey. Just walk in, get the free breakfast that the hotel provides, and you're good to go. So many things can go wrong with flights.

I was so happy that my, California trip went successfully with no no stupid events happening like this. Imagine you're on a flight from Los Angeles to Cancun, cruising at 35,000 feet when suddenly the pilot comes onto the intercom, not to announce turbulence or the weather, but to sternly remind everyone that smoking, vaping, and chewing tobacco are prohibited on board. Why? Because, well, someone decided to vape in the lavatory claiming they were stressed out. The pilot even threatened to turn the plane around if it happened again.

Now I get it. Flying can be stressful, but lighting up a vape mid flight, you're doing more harm than good. It's a federal offense. The FAA treats vaping the same as smoking on a plane, and it can lead to very serious penalties, and you'll be very stressed out with that. So there's that to think about.

Peach's pit party right here on K Bear 101 over the weekend at Desert Storm Shootout in Lake Havasu. A speedboat attempted to break a 206 mile per hour record. The boat, driven by racers using the, pseudonyms John Wayne and Clint Eastwood, reached 200.1 miles per hour before it unexpectedly went airborne, flipping multiple times before crashing into the lake. Miraculously, both drivers survived with minor injuries. Witnesses captured the dramatic incident from various angles, and I saw the video multiple times over the weekend showing the boat's sudden lift off.

It looked like the boat was made out of paper. Like, it was hard to believe that that was anything crazy for some reason. Like, I was watching them. Like, it looks like a little tiny piece of paper just floating over the water. But, no, it's a real boat that was going 200 miles per hour that just, you know, flipped.

They were, like, real high into the air at one point too. They do say experts believe that windy conditions may have contributed to the accident, but also possibly cushioned the impact preventing more severe injuries. Despite the crash, the drivers affiliated with Freedom One racing remain in good spirits and are expected to recover fully. And now they've gone viral online for their hilarious crash. There we go.

A former Disney employee, a guy who was literally in charge of menu production, just got sentenced to three years in prison. Why? Because he hacked into Disney servers to mess with the restaurant menus. Yeah. Dude wasn't changing spelling errors or sneaking in a free churro.

No. He was falsifying allergy information, changing prices, and even slipping in some profanities for fun. Imagine taking your kids to Goofy's Good Time Grill, and the menu suddenly says chicken nuggets now with a side of existential dread. Something like that. Thankfully, Disney caught it before any menus got printed, but still he's now on the hook for close to $700,000 in restitution.

That's like two churros at Disney prices. You know? If you're gonna rage quit your job, maybe don't try to take down the entire Magic Kingdom with you. Mickey's got lawyers. Big ones.

The NFL draft has been going on the past couple of days. There's been all that talk about Shador Sanders, the first guy getting drafted in the whole thing, Cam Ward. Recently, Desmond Watson was drafted. You should see this guy. If you haven't heard about this dude, he's six foot six, a little bit shorter than me, but he tips the scales at four hundred and sixty four pounds.

He's officially the heaviest player in NFL history. That's not that's that's not just a record. That's a seismic event. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers saw potential or perhaps they just couldn't ignore the gravitational pull. They signed him as an undrafted free agent, bringing him back home to Florida.

At his pro day, Watson benched 225 pounds 36 times. That's more reps than most of us can do with the TV remote. He also ran a 5.93 40 yard dash at 464 pounds. A nearly five hundred pound human being running at you full force to tackle you. I'm throwing the football away and getting off the field and screaming.

Peach's pit party right here on Kay Barrett 101, Idaho's only rock station. Usually, this is the time for to peach their own, but to be quite honest with you, I have been rather busy today. I had the interview with Rory Rodriguez of Dayseeker earlier, and I was preparing for that all day today. I was doing a whole bunch of behind the scenes stuff, and I didn't really have time to go digging for a question to ask. And if you were listening at 07:05 this morning, you would know Victor said the 4PM hour was the hour that we're gonna play the secret sound.

So I I said, you know what? Let me just try to give away some money right now. $576 to caller 20 if they can guess this secret sound correctly. Oh, whoops. I completely forgot to play it.

Hold on. Let let me restart it. I forgot to put it in this setting. Here we go. B color twenty.

Let me know what that secret sound is at 2085351015. Guess that sound correctly. You win all the money in the prize pot. Best of luck. Hey, K Bear.

How's it going? Alright. How are you? I'm doing fantastic. Who's this?

This is Rachel from Pocatello. Alrighty, Rachel. You're my lucky caller 20. Let's see if I can, give you $576 thanks to our friends at the Advocates Injury Attorneys. Let me see if you can get this, sound correctly.

You wanna hear it real fast? Alright. I do. Alright. Here it is.

And I'll play it once again at a higher volume for you, see if that makes any difference. Alrighty, Rachel. What's your best guess? I'm going to say, is it are you crinkling or crumpling up a paper towel or napkin? Alright.

Let's go ahead and see. Is that the correct answer? No. Oh, I'm sorry, Rachel. That is not the correct answer.

Did you hear the one from this morning about crinkling up a a piece of paper? Yes. And I was I I was gonna be angry if he won because he was getting close. Well Thank you. Yeah.

Of course. There's another chance down the line and with even more money now. Thanks to our friends at the Advocates injury attorneys, the jackpot is now at $601. Rachel, still, what's your favorite station? Kager one zero one, baby.

Alrighty. And did you sign up through the app as well? I have. Perfect. Alright.

We may be calling you at some point too. There we go. Appreciate it. Thanks. Bye.
