There you have it as my pick of the day, the band president in the name of the father, their debut single. After months of speculation, they're finally they finally put out one song at least, one song, and I believe they're performing at Download Festival. Is that what it says? Yeah. They're making their live debut at Download.
When is Download? Download Festival. It is June 13 through the fifteenth, and they honestly only have one song available on demand. So does that mean they're gonna debut all of their songs at that festival and then just put them all out there available, or what are they gonna do? A set full of covers?
Well, the first tease of the band came earlier this year coinciding with the reveal that they had landed a coveted spot on the Download Festival, immediately gathering context clues from the sound, the masks, the video, all things associated with the teaser. Fans really started to formulate ideas about who might be taking part in this band called President. And, I actually Katie, Victor, and I were talking about it couple days ago, and I saw the big news that they finally dropped their single yesterday afternoon. So I texted it to Katie, texted it to Victor, and then Katie and I were texting back and forth talking about how, it's it kinda sounds like a mashup between all three powerhouses, Bad Omens, Dayseeker, and Sleep Token. But the singer sounds like Rory from Dayseeker, but then you also gotta think, like, why would he start a new band and have it sort of sound like Dayseeker?
I already kinda know who it is because there is this article out there, like, saying who the lead singer is, allegedly, still. That lead singer because I looked up that person's band, though the his two bands, I should say, and I don't know. I feel like it still doesn't sound like that guy either. I do like the mystery behind it. Like, we're supposed to just pretend this is a a masked figure.
We'll never know who it is. I do like the mystery. I do like the way that, these new era of metal bands are going with Sleep Token. I mean, Ghost, for the most part, was, like, the originator of this whole thing. Like, you never knew who was behind the mask.
Victor, by the way, did a rock radio DJ one take reaction to that song, which, by the way, you can find that on our YouTube channel at k Bear one zero one r m g. We got a jam packed, weekend ahead of us. I wanna get through this, Friday show as fast as possible. If you wanna get a hold of me, you can over at (208) 535-1015, and Peach's Pit Party will continue here in just a few on KBAR one zero one. I did talk about I've talked about it plenty of times now that we have a jam packed weekend ahead of us.
There's gonna be a ton happening. Get the Idaho Falls Farmers Market tomorrow. Josh will be there from around 9AM to noon, I believe, and then I'll get there around eleven. Hang around till it closes at 2PM. The Idaho Falls Farmers Market, by the way, it's bigger than before.
I mean, last year, it had a 40 vendors. Now it's at, like, a 70. They expanded it, like, six blocks as well. I was there the first day it opened up. It was nice to see all the all the various vendors.
But, we're gonna have the Riverbend Media Group booth set up for nonperishable food donations that we'll be giving to the Idaho Falls Community Food Basket. I had a list here, and you can find the list by simply going to riverbendmediagroup.com. There's a list there of all the things that are in high need, like, different canned goods, rice, pasta, canned ravioli like SpaghettiOs, that as well. We'll take it all to the Idaho Falls community, food basket at the, farmer's market tomorrow. Just look for the Riverbend Media Group tent.
I'm very easy to spot. Our booth is very easy to spot. And Josh will also be giving away twenty sixth annual, second chance prom tickets with Classy ninety seven and Browning's Honey. Gotta find him and then make your way to that, Snake River Landing. That's not Snake River Landing.
Well, the waterfront at Snake River Landing tomorrow night for that prom. There's that I'll be attending. And then Sunday, of course, Seether, POD, and Nonpoint live at the Mountain America Center. Very excited for all these events, really. It's better than me just sitting at my apartment doing absolutely nothing.
So come by any one of those events or maybe all three, and make sure to say hello, and we'll have a great time at every single one of them. I've talked about it many a times about my, experience working at In N Out Burger, dealing with customers. That experience made me hate people with a passion. But I gotta say they're not necessarily the best all around fast food restaurants in my opinion, of course. It's all subjective.
But, I gotta say the best all around burger, fries, and drink that you can get is Culver's. I I I love that place. We didn't have them in Southern California. I came out here. And then when I first, started here, I was afternoons on one zero five The Hawk, middays on Cabare.
And I remember hearing those Culver's ads on the Hawk, and I was like, that sounds pretty interesting. Maybe I should try them. And then I tried them, and I've I've been a fan ever since. This guy in Wisconsin, his name's Clay, posted a video on social media that showed him running something he calls a Culver's marathon. This marathon involved running 26.2 miles, obviously, but he was visiting different Culver's restaurant locations and eating nothing but deep fried cheese curds and frozen custard along the way, which is, I would say, horrible to eat while you're running because, well, you're gonna sound like an engine that's puttering the entire time you're running.
Like, you're gonna get some stomach issues. Okay? You're gonna have some gas. Kinda like the one time I had a couple hot dogs before basketball practice back when I was a teenager. I was running up and down the court, and I sounded like that engine that was puttering.
I mean, their fries are fantastic. The deep fried cheese curds are fantastic. The custard, everything over there, even the sodas. I'm not even, like, being paid to say this. I just love that place.
My friends and I on Discord, we actually have a full on channel that's just specifically for Culver's posting. And I shared this article, to my to my buddies in there. I was like, hey. We might need to we might need to run 26.2 miles to different Culver's locations, see if we can get, like, some sort of, I don't know, notice from their executives and they give us free burgers, something like that. I'd run 26.2 miles for one free Culver's burger.
I updated our concert calendar earlier today. Lorna Shore not only only released a new single, they also announced their album coming out in September. I believe September 12. I forgot the lawn name for it. Should I look it up for you real fast just to give you the name?
Lorna Shore upcoming album. I feel the ever black festering within me. Alright. Did they go to ChatGPT and say, hey. Give me the darkest deathcore inspired, album title you can think of?
It is fun to do that sometimes. Just go to Chad GPD, do something like that. It's dumb. I know. But, they also announced a tour with the Black Dahlia murder, shadow of intent, and peeling flesh, another band that's like, okay.
How hardcore can we go with our band name? Let's go with that. But, they're gonna be at The Union in Salt Lake City, October Twentieth. You can find that show now on our concert calendar, by the way, at riverbendmediagroup.com/calendar. Let's go to chat GPT real quick.
I wanna see what exactly it'll give me. Give me extremely heavy deathcore inspired album title names. Let's see what it can come up with. Maybe since I put deathcore, it's gonna be like, well, we're flagging you for using inappropriate language. No.
Here we go. Alright. Absolutely. Here's a brutal batch of deathcore inspired album title names. Think suffocating breakdowns, blast beats from heck, and existential dread with a side of gore, gutter gospel, bliss through asphyxiation.
By the way, any local meta metal band wanna use this, go for it. Neck harvest, ex oh, wait. Collapse etiquette, the rot that dreams. I like how it even divided it into different categories. Grotesque body horror vibes, apocalyptic existential themes, ultra violent and visceral, spine grinder, veins full of glass.
You get the picture. Right? Anyway, go check out that concert calendar at riverbendmediagroup.com/calendar for all the shows making their way to the area. There's a ton of people that I talk to that say, I've never been to a rock show. I I I've been wanting to go.
There's a lot of cheaper ones out there. Alright? There's a lot of, smaller shows that you can go to. Get used to, like, maybe maybe go to, like, a smaller show at first and then, I don't know, make your way to bigger and better afterward. Maybe something like that.
Find a band that's that piques your interest that's coming to the area at the on on the concert calendar. Riverbendmediagroup.com/calendar. Now that the NFL schedule is out, we can see which team will rack up the most frequent flyer miles this season. The Los Angeles chargers topped the list with just over 37,000 miles, which is 14,000 more than the second place team, the Denver Broncos. The Chargers' mileage got a boost for their flight to Brazil for their opening game of the season against the, Kansas City Chiefs and three trips to the East Coast.
The team that flies the least, the Cincinnati Bengals who are just under 8,800 miles. The WNBA season kicks off tonight, so get ready to see a whole lot of Indiana fever star Caitlin Clark. Forty one of the team's 44 games this season will be shown on national television, which is a WNBA record. The fever are expected to be good, but the New York Liberty are favored to repeat with, plus 225 odds at BetMGM. The Las Vegas aces are second with the fever at, plus 300 as well.
Clark is widely favored to be the season's MVP at plus one ninety five there. College football. Since Fox Sports started broadcasting a bunch of Big Ten football games, Ohio State has been featured at noon a lot, which bothers many Ohio State fans. Kicking off at noon doesn't give fans a lot of time to party or bask in the glow of the national spotlight with later games. Representative Tex Fisher of the Ohio General Assembly wants this fixed, so he wrote a bill to prevent Ohio State and other state schools from playing most of its home games before 03:30PM.
We'll see if the wheels of government can get this done and remedy this terrible injustice for Ohio State fans. That does it for your Shot Clock sports update right here on K Bear one zero one. You've probably heard me talk about my obsession with, with vans. I've always liked, the shoes and the cars themselves, but more importantly, I'm talking about the cars. I've always wanted to have, like, a nice giant Mercedes Sprinter van.
Take it from Idaho Falls to Salt Lake or even Boise for shows. I saw here an article talking about how minivans are supposedly making a comeback. They they were first introduced in the early nineteen eighties with the Dodge Caravan and the Plymouth Voyager leading the way. Since then, minivan sales have dropped while, sales of SUVs have surged. But maybe, just maybe, things are about to change as, you know, minivans might be making that comeback.
A number of carmakers showed off their new luxury minivans at this huge auto show in China. And looking at one of them, it doesn't look like your stereotypical minivan. It looks like some giant comfortable car. I wonder what the gas mileage is like, though. That's the, that's the main thing.
Unfortunately, these smaller cars have better gas mileage. So make maybe that trip from Idaho Falls to Salt Lake in a Mercedes Sprinter van would cost me a ton, way worse than trying to fly out there. Mercedes Sprinter van gas mileage. I've always wondered that myself. About 17.7 average miles per gallon.
Okay. How many, gallons or which van is the best? Oh, there we go. The 2024 Toyota Sienna consistently ranks as the most fuel efficient minivan on the market, achieving an EPA estimated 36 miles per gallon in city and highway driving. I mean, I might be that dad in the future that has the minivan, and I'll I'll proudly own it.
Alright? I don't care. I like minivans. I like vans. I think they're cool.
Today is National Barbecue Day, and, normally, I don't really like talking about the national holidays. It's just one of those stereotypical radio things where it's like, today, by the way, National Barbecue Day. What's your favorite meat? Call in. No.
Don't actually do that. But and if you wanna take your holiday grilling to a new level since it is National Barbecue Day, consider filling that grill with beer coal from Kingsford and, is it Kingsford? Kingsford and Miller Lite. It's charcoal that's infused with actual Miller Lite beer to give your steaks, burgers, and ribs an extra kick of flavor. I guess the last time they tried doing this, was back in 2022 and then 2023, and they had a limited rollout.
But now it is going nationwide for the very first time. I wonder how fast this is going to sell. I'm on the food and wine, website. Is there a link to purchase anywhere that to click somewhere? I'm sure it's gonna sell out within seconds.
Anything that's special like this, they're gonna be gone. Oh, here we go. You can find it where it's sold near you at kingsford.com. I'm sure it's, it's probably already gone. Forget this.
If you do somehow find it, use it. Let me know how it is. So, apparently, some scientists at Monash University is that how you say it? Monash University in Australia, real people with real degrees spent their time analyzing close to 3,000 Barbie dolls to track the evolution of Barbie's feet. Yeah.
This is where we're at. Turns out Barbie's gone from full time high heel warrior to rocking flats. That's right. That's right. 60% of today's Barbies are now flat footed because she's out here being a doctor, an astronaut, paramedic, you know, career woman Barbie, can't be breaking ankles on the job.
And, look, I get it. Realism, representation. But did we need a full academic study to tell us Barbie finally got tired of wearing stilettos twenty four seven? Like, were we really all sitting around wondering about the podiatric journey of Barbie? Anyway, shout out to the 40% of Barbies still, still in high heels.
There you go. Legends only, I guess. Victor joining the party this late in the afternoon. Yeah. I'm just so busy.
I'm not gonna leave. I mean, it is a jam packed weekend we have ahead of us. I know. I can't wait for a nap. Well, I heard this story on a different podcast and was like, okay.
I need to bring Victor into the studio and bring just play you this audio. Alright. Okay. Should should I just play you with play you it without saying anything? Yeah.
Let's just check it out. No. Not I tend to avoid politics because I hate when people talk politics, so I like to just step away from all that crap. But I thought this was rather funny. Trump time.
A mistake on a Donald Trump keepsake might be funny to some. But it wasn't a laughing matter for the couple who paid more than $600 for the Trump branded watch. The I Team's Brian Crandall looked into it and is here with what's happening now after we got involved. I saw this at least article. Yeah.
You did? Oh, hey. Do you wanna hear what the the couple has to say? Mhmm. You should see the guy.
Jean, one letter was left off that watch face and it was pretty much the worst one possible to forget. And after being disappointed with the initial response from the website they ordered it from, the Middletown couple talked to us. I liked it because it's similar to a Rolex band. Showing support for the president and love for his wife. Just thought it was really nice.
It was beautiful, and I knew it would be something that she'd like. Unlimited I knew my wife would like. I don't wanna make fun of the guy, but come around the corner real quick. Alright. Let me let me look.
Now Watch when he talks. You ready for this? I'm gonna replay it for you. For the president and love for his wife. Here it is.
Just thought it was really nice and beautiful. And I knew it would be something that she'd like. Alright, Peach. Sorry. I I thought that was funny.
He's a bigger, bald guy, and he's he's older. And he has that, that turkey neck. He doesn't have the turkey neck. And he does jiggle. And then one point, he shakes his head, and you see it just swing.
I was so mesmerized by it. Like, you know, like, that little pendulum toy? Yeah. That's that's, like, watching it. Now I think that they should be just fine with the watch.
Like, they got a unique product. They got on the news. I bet they could sell it for way more now because it'll be a collector's item, the rump watch. Well, the reason why they went on to the news is because, I guess, the website doesn't the the customer service just ghosted them. Oh.
And if you look at their websites, there's a real small lettering about how, like, they're not actually affiliated at all with the with the president. They just make these. So that's why they put rump instead instead of Trump Preventing a lawsuit. There's also, like, him plugging the website. So I don't know what what it like, he it's gettrumpwatches.com Man.
Is the website. Dude, you know, he he does know out of a market. Lot of products. When are we gonna get the Trump coffins? You know?
Jeez. When are we gonna get those? We got the the kiss caskets. When is he gonna unleash coffins? You know?
I I can only imagine going to a funeral with one of those, like, with his face on it, And then, like, grandpa's in the coffin, and you're crying, but you keep looking up. You see Donald Trump's face plastered onto his signature coffin, and you you're like, why why does everything need to be marketed? Well, the people are buying it. They had Trump guitars. There's been, like, coins, you know, obviously, flags.
There's they got a billion of those. Caskets. What are some other things that, they haven't started marketing yet that would be you know, what's a popular product? What about Trump, Crocs? Aren't Crocs popular again?
Sure. You call them Crocs. What would be some funny Trump products for the president to sell? I mean, the dude likes to sell stuff, so might as well, give some locals some ideas of products to create and make some money. The COFFEEFE coffee.
COFFEEFE coffee. Yeah. That's an old one. Wow. Bigly Body Spray smells like success, steak, and executive orders.
What if it smelled like, you know, McDonald's? Make America Glisten Again tanning lotion. I do like that. The the hue the huge deals coupon book. Yeah.
I'm surprised some of these aren't available yet. The wall wall therm thermostat. The Wall therm. It's a it's that one's pretty funny. It only gets hotter.
No climate change allowed here. Oh, okay. Alright. I was like, where does this one I'm not getting it. The magabrela blocks rain, wind, and criticism from the fake news media.
It'll it'll keep you safe from liberal tears. Right? Oh, yeah. The art of saying nothing audiobook, fourteen hours of circular logic, hyperbole, and unfinished thoughts. They call that the weave, Peaches.
Yeah. The weave. Yeah. Doing the weave. Yeah.
The golf course negotiation master class, the the build the wall Legos. Oh, these are great. Oh. But, the very the my my favorite part about the whole, news report is when the guy was like, yeah. We'd like to get a refund because, I like for them to apologize for my wife crying.
They're respected. Idiots. Right here. Or principles. I think that someone needs to be aware of it in their licensing department that someone's dropped the ball big time.
When the Petits talked to us earlier today, they were not satisfied with what they thought was a lack of response to the messages from the company. And an apology would be nice for making my wife cry. Why would you cry about watching this? Rough watch. It's a it's a rare mishap.
And, well, I mean, if it is a rare mishap, you can sell it for more money. Yeah. Like, I mean, somebody out there would probably pay for it on eBay. Yeah. You know?
I they'd put it on like, what what about some of these liberal podcasters? I bet one of them with a lot of money. You know? They they put it in a decoration in the background or wear it. I don't know.
It'd be funny if someone like Bernie Sanders bought it and just wore it. See, that's that's the type of pettiness you need when it comes to these politics. Yeah. No need to cry. Make some money.
Stop you crying. Well, pretty soon, we'll say rest in peace to the southern accent. Once a defining feature of regions like Virginia, it's gradually fading. The shift began in the latter half of the, twentieth century influenced by increased mobility, cultural blending across The US, Even areas traditionally associated with southern speech such as Richmond are experiencing this change. I mean, there's tons of people from all around the tons of people from the big cities moving towards places like Nashville, even other places in the South, which I mean, it is pretty crazy.
I mean, the southern accent, I find it enjoyable because I think it's funny. I think it's pretty pretty fun to hear. It's one of the more fun accents. But if it disappears, what's gonna happen to these, country singers? Are they gonna start singing normally?
Are they gonna fake it just like some of them do now? What's gonna happen with that? But, yeah, I mean, if you if you have a southern accent, you're from the South, you have that accent too. I know we have loyal listener James out in Tennessee. Shout out to him.
We have a few people who listen to us in the South streaming us through the free Kay Bear one zero one app. Please, hopefully, you never lose that accent. It's a rare thing to come by nowadays, apparently. Yeah. I was just reading all about this why southern accents are I like how it says, say goodbye to southern accents, y'all.
You can find that our article anywhere if you wanna look it up for yourself. The big news that popped up earlier today in a very shocking move, the Foo Fighters have booted the drummer Josh Freese. Now he joined the band back in May of twenty twenty three as a replacement for Taylor Hawkins who passed away in March of twenty twenty two, which is crazy that it's that long ago now. I remember I was on my evening run, and all of a sudden I go on to Facebook and Eddie Trunk, out of all people, was the guy who broke the news on my feet at least where he said, like, what? Taylor Hawkins is now dead?
And, like, was all shocked. And I looked it up, and sure enough, he was he's gone. But Josh Friess, who's on who's on the road with one of his pre Foos bands, A Perfect Circle, posted the news today on Instagram. He wrote, the Foo Fighters called me Monday night to let me know they've decided to go in a different direction with their drummer. No reason was given.
Regardless, I enjoyed the past two years with them both on and off the stage, and I support whatever they feel is best for the band. In my forty years of drumming professionally, I've never been let go from a band. So while I'm not angry, just a bit shocked and disappointed, which is not the response you ideally want. It's like when your mom says, like, oh, I'm not angry with you. I'm just disappointed.
In the the other part of the post, he goes, but as most of you know, I've always worked freelance freelance and bounced between bands, so I'm fine. Stay tuned for my top 10 possible reasons Josh got booted from the Foo Fighters list. Besides the perfect circle over the past decade, Alon Freeze, alone, Freeze has been the drummer for Sting, The Offspring, Sublime with Rome, Devo, The Vandals. Foo Fighters had just announced their first concert since Dave Grohl went public about, you know, fathering a child outside his marriage last year. It's October 4 at the Singapore Grand Prix.
I wonder who exactly they're gonna have, on the drums. I feel like they might just go with Taylor Hawkins' son. They might just do something like that. I thought that's what they were initially going to do, and then they involved invited Josh to join the band. And I thought that was an interesting move, but, I did predict that the the, the guys in Electric Callboy, since their drummer left, that they would recruit the drummer of Sum forty one.
I've talked about that story plenty of times about how they just, you know, were out without without a drummer out in Australia. Sum Forty One was performing at the same festival. They recruited the drummer of Sum forty one. He learned the Electric Callboy songs within seven hours and performed live with the band in Australia. Goes to show about my thing with Volbeat canceling back in 2021 because the drummer was asymptomatic for COVID.
They could have easily found a drummer to play those Volbeat songs. A lot of them are simple. We talked about that on the noon hour of Madness and Mayhem. I will never ever let that go. You ever want something so bad you just keep digging yourself deeper?
Today is what the headline takes us to Vermont where one prison inmate is really committed to not getting out. A a dude named Todd Slade has been trying to get an early release from jail and instead accidentally became a one man record holder for contempt of court charges. How many? Oh, just 1,146, all because he kept trying to contact the victim in his case over a thousand times from jail by phone, by Internet, maybe smoke signals. Every time he did it, the court tacked on another charge.
Bro thought he was calling for help. Turns out he was calling for an extension. So, yeah, the man who wanted out now has more time in. Honestly, impressive, not legally, but, like, logistically. Well, this is one way to start your academic career with a bang.
A five year old in Pennsylvania nearly turned, their kindergarten classroom into delta tau crayon after they showed up with jello shots and passed them out to classmates like it was a juice box happy hour. Yep. According to the Greater Johnstown School District, the tiny party promoter served the, boozy treats to three other kids before teachers realized nap time was about to turn into blackout time. I wonder what the reaction was. Like, are are those what it are those what I think they are?
Runs over. They are. Smells them. Thankfully, the staff acted fast. All the kids were checked up by a nurse, then taken to the hospital just to be safe.
Everyone's okay. Though I imagine now snack time will be under much tighter security from now on. Police are now looking into how a kindergartner even got their little hands on alcoholic jello shots. I think it's most likely due to the due to the fact that there's an older sister that had them in the fridge, something like that. I mean, maybe the mom, maybe the dad, they had a party they were planning, left them in there.
Kid goes in. Oh, jello. Sweet. I wanna show my friends. Gets them all sent to the hospital.
Then those parents those other kids find out. You you gave my kid a jello shot. You're a horrible parent. The it this thing's gonna spiral into something else. It's something even worse.
I think, though, that kid that kid's gonna be hated from here on out, I think. You know how people say any publicity is good publicity? Well, Bobby, I forgot how you say his last name, Libeline from Pentagram might wanna argue that one if he could remember what planet he's on. The doom metal legend went viral not that long ago, not for a new album drop or killer solo, but for spacing out mid performance. It looks like he's spacing out mid performance.
He just has those giant eyes, half a century in music. It wasn't the riffs. It wasn't the legacy. It was the thousand yard stare that made him famous. He even admitted in an interview, I always dreamed of going viral, but becoming famous for being a joke.
Not exactly how I pictured it. Now the guy is getting stopped by pilots, TSA agents, even soccer moms in airports. Like, he's the metal Yoda of accidental memes. He's saying that he he has to have private security everywhere with him now. Be I mean, it's probably good for the band.
Right? Like, I'd never heard of the band Pentagram till the meme came about, and Victor explained who he was. And I listened to them. I'm like, okay. That's cool.
Glad to see the the band somehow is getting more and more into the spotlight. Hard work pays off. They've been doing it for, like, what, half a century or he's been doing it for half a century at least. Not the band itself, but he's been doing music for quite a long time. And sure enough, look at that.
Boom. Pentagram, famous, now even more so, but because of a meme. Thanks for listening to Peach's Pip Party, the podcast. If you enjoyed the show, please share, subscribe, and rate the podcast.
