It's Peaches here, and this is Peaches Pit Party, the podcast. A lot of puh sounds with that title. A replay of today's full show, which you can hear weekday afternoons live on KayBear 101. I hope you like what I have to say. And if not, well, then I'm sorry, not sorry.

Enjoy. Alrighty. We are here Monday, October 28, 2024. I sincerely hope all is well with you. I say that at the beginning of every show, but I I truly mean it.

It was definitely, I would say, an emotional weekend for me. My friend Bryson, he's moving out of state, going across the country, pretty much my, well, one of 2 friends out here in the area that I frequently hang out with. Luckily, I talked to him on Discord more than anything because, you know, I'm in my I'm in Idaho Falls. He's in Pocatello. I can't really drive down there all that often, but I did over the weekend to go see him at his place for essentially the last time before well, this Friday, he moves all the way over to Georgia.

I'm hoping he likes it over there. I really do. I'm hoping the best for him. I was encouraging him to go out there, get a nice fresh start in a new area, work someplace new, get out of the place he's been born and raised in. It was definitely hard for me to do that when I first moved out here.

I was so badly wanting out of my parents' place so, so badly because we were fighting all the time. I was just wanting out of there to just have my own place. And now that I live on my own, I'm like, man, I really wish I was back with my parents. My parents are great. It's great to have company, and, yeah, I just hope Bryson has a great time over in Cumming, Georgia.

208-535-1015. That is the number to reach me. I didn't make it any better, on the way back from Pocatello 2 by listening to some of these tracks that, like, you know, their their whole theme of these songs are memories. And I was gonna play this, song from Fuel called Leave the Memories Alone that I listened to on repeat from Pocatello to Idaho Falls, but I figured, you know what? Wind Walkers was a better option.

Hangfire as my pick of the day today. Don't worry. Don't forget that this week, on Thursday, Halloween coming up. And thanks to No Limit Guitar Company, we're gonna have nonstop Halloween music on Halloween day, and we'll also be giving away all of those prizes like the ESP LTD AeroGuitar, lawn with the PRS Sonzera 20 combo amp. That's a $1700 value right there that could be yours for absolutely free.

If you haven't signed up for the giveaway, do so on the Kay Barrett 1 zero one app and the ALT one zero one app as well. Do so on both apps, and then go into either location before Halloween and buy something. Buy something as small as maybe guitar strings, maybe a few picks, maybe buy yourself a whole new guitar. And then out of nowhere, you win this guitar and amp with us, and now you have 2 guitars and an amp. That'd be pretty cool, wouldn't it?

No. Let me guitar company has been celebrating their 6th annual birthday bash this entire month. They're having a whole bunch of deals in both stores. Go check those out. Coming up here in just a few, I have one of those tracks from our Rockin' Halloween playlist from Demure Beaujeu, I believe that's how you say it, And my worst French accent possible.

It's Peach's Pit Party. Be back here in just a few. Kay Bear 101, Idaho's only rock station on Discord. Me and my friends have a lot of different unique conversations, and one of which, on Sunday night right before I went to bed, we were debating which holiday is the best. And, clearly, my answer is Christmas.

I've said it for many years that I've I personally think Thanksgiving's overrated. I'm not the biggest fan of eating the same mold turkey, stuffing, yams, and all that. I know you you're not forced to eat those foods, but for the most part, every family in America almost every family in America eats that, or they eat ham instead of turkey. I I, myself, I prefer ham. Turkey, I do not understand why people want turkey on Thanksgiving.

It's one of the worst foods. If I wanna be thankful for any type of food on the table, I wanna be thankful for a food that I'm actually wanting to eat. This makes me sound horrible, but, I mean, I'll still eat turkey. It's just not high up on my, oh, I want this list near the bottom. I mean, I like turkey sandwiches, but turkey by itself, maybe with a little bit of gravy to help with the the dryness of turkey, and you're gonna sit there and tell me, like, oh, peaches.

You haven't had a good turkey yet. I I just who cares? The the best turkey is not gonna beat the best taco. Well, that's that's for sure. And so my my buddy, Chauncey, he was more so, arguing that he thinks Christmas is so overhyped, but but that was mostly because he's had some poor experiences with it.

I I love Christmas because it it allows me to gift my friends just different things, and it shows my friends, hey. You know? I I I was thinking about you, and I bought this, and I thought this would be perfect for you. I never buy anybody gift cards. I always try to find them an actual gift.

Halloween's pretty pretty cool. It's a it's a fun holiday. Maybe if you're invited to the parties, if you're dressing up, maybe if you're if you get a lot of trick or treaters, that could make Halloween fun. Or if you have kids and you take them trick or treating, that makes Halloween fun as well, which, by the way, again, I'm gonna repeat it. Don't be that person in Halloween that says, aren't you a little old to be trick or treating?

Never say that. Allow anybody at your door to get some candy or Whatever you're giving out. I know there are some cool people out there that give out like Pokemon cards and money and toothbrushes. Toothbrushes are always funny Somebody said that they're giving away potatoes this year. I thought that was great especially for the state that we're in.

I'm trying to think of any other holidays that are, like because we're the whole argument on Discord was, can any holiday just beat Christmas? They it can't. They they really can. You can't say Easter beats Christmas. You can't say Halloween.

One of the worst holidays is Saint Patrick's Day because that just gives people excuses to just drink and potentially drink and drive, and that's a whole other issue there. Christmas tops all. I gotta say that. Christmas has entire radio stations dedicated to the music and stuff. And Christmas is always just this is just overall fun time.

Families get together. Thanksgiving's decent. Don't get me wrong. I I think Thanksgiving's fun and all, but at the same time, no matter where I'm at for Thanksgiving, if I'm, let's say, going to my parents' place and we have Thanksgiving with some of the members of my extended family or I go to, like, my friends, Bryson and Braxton's parents' place, and I go with their their family to enjoy Thanksgiving. Either way, I'm going to get asked that question.

So how's your job being a radio announcer? Some people back at home still think I live in Utah for some reason. They're like, what's it like being a radio announcer in Utah? They can't even get the job or state right. Come on now.

Peach's pit party on Kay Bear 101, Idaho's only rock station. I was hyped in the beginning for this news, and then I saw the actual, like, poster and went, they're not coming anywhere close. The band Ghost, they've announced a 27 date North American tour for next July August that's expected to get even longer. After a 25 shows after 25 shows in the UK and Europe in April May, they'll open in Baltimore on July 9th, are currently scheduled to stay on the road through August 16th in Houston. They'll return to North America on September 24th for a one off show in Mexico City.

Advertising art for the tour adds more dates are to come. The closest we have is potentially Denver at the Ball Arena, and I'm looking at the different venues. They're all giant arenas. The o two Arena. You got the T Mobile Center.

You got the Moody Center, the Toyota Center. They're basically doing only gigs where the capacity is, like, 15,000, 17,000, some, maybe even 20,000 people. The only places nearby that could do something that big, the Delta Center. The Mavericks Center holds 12,000. The Delta Center holds 20,000.

The Rice Eccles stadium holds 51,000 people, which is crazy to think that, like, Garth Brooks has played there and filled out the entire place. That should show you how powerful of an artist that guy is and how powerful Ghost has become. But they're headlining arenas and selling arenas. That's pretty wild. I'm I'm really hoping they come to Salt Lake City or Boise.

There's not really a home for them here in East Idaho unless they came during the summer, to the Portniff Health Trust amphitheater that holds 11,000 people. The Mountain America Center only holds 6,000. But what's even weirder is at the bottom of the tour poster says this, this show will be a phone free experience. Phones will be secured at, oh, in in what does it say? In yonder policies or yonder pouches.

That's a tough font to read. It's so small too. In yonder pouches. In under pouches? No.

Yonder pouches, y o n d r. Yonder pouches. Interesting. I know that I've seen a few people complain about that already online. Why can't I have my phone now for the whole performance?

Enjoy the show. Be in the moment. Okay? Ghost puts on one of the best live shows you'll ever see. I don't care if you're a fan of Ghost or not, if you're one of those people that yells out Ghost sucks on the Internet as much as you can.

Ghost does amazing live. They're they're fun to watch, and that right here right now movie, proves it. That whole set from the Kia form, I'm I'm so mad. I'm still kicking myself. I didn't go to that show.

Last week, the New Orleans Saints, the running back Alvin Kamara, signed a 2 year extension worth 24 and a half $1,000,000 that will keep him in New Orleans through the 2026 season. The New Orleans based brewery, Abita Brewing Company, was so happy that Kamara could be staying would be staying with the Saints that they offered him free beer for life. Kamara has responded and has officially accepted the generous offer. This season, the Los Angeles Clippers are playing in a brand new arena. We talked about the Intuit Dome.

It's a 2,000,000,000 state of the art facility located in the city of Inglewood out of all places. It features the world's largest double sided halo display and a very unique seating section called the wall. Fans love this. It's also it also features parking spots that cost a whopping $70, which is more which is often more than it costs for a game ticket. Fans do not love this and have taken to social media to share their complaints.

I mean, the more money out of you, the better, right, when it comes to this kind of thing? LeBron James continues to break all time NBA records. He's currently playing well enough to keep rolling and breaking even more records. More recently, he broke the, most recently, he broke the record for most missed shots in NBA history, topping Kobe Bryant who held the previous record with 14,481. It looks like LeBron will continue to make shots, miss shots, and keep rewriting the, record books there.

That is it for your Shot Clock Sports Update right here on Kay Bear 101. Idaho's only rock station, Kay Bear 101. I love this idea. I really, really do. American Airlines, they're testing a change to the boarding process that would effectively shame those trying to board the plane early.

An alert will go off if the passenger tries to scan a ticket ahead of their assigned group. The change is currently being tested at Albuquerque International Sunport Airport, Tucson International Airport, and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. The new technology, International Airport, and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. The new technology is designed to ensure customers receive the benefits of priority boarding with ease and helps improve the, the boarding experience, an American Airlines statement reads. I love this.

I think we should publicly shame those who decide to do something as little as not return their cart to the cart corral. I think cart narcs, I don't know if you've ever seen that YouTube channel, Agent Sebastian, who goes to these different stores around the country and, publicly shames those that don't put their cart back where they should, and they always have a wide variety of excuses. Like, oh, I got my kids in the car. The the they pay this the store pays people to get your cart back. No.

They don't. If it it's I'm not gonna get into that, but I think it'd be great if every cart had a siren. And if you didn't put it back, it didn't sense that it was back in the corral, that would go off. If you walked through the, if you walked into Walmart through the exit door, a siren should go off. And it just goes idiot alert.

So it says something like that. It's perfect. Peach's pit party on KBAR 101, Idaho's only rock station. I should have included this in the Shot Clock Sports Update. But you know what?

It somewhat deserves its own break as well because this is not necessarily sports related. It's just very weird news coming out of the sporting world. NFL athletes, you know, they eat a lot, especially those linemen. The NFL diet is nothing light. It's pasta, bananas, a lot of protein, different smoothies and stuff.

I didn't realize how many Smucker's Uncrustables these guys eat in the NFL. In a breakdown by team, the Denver Broncos topped the list consuming 7,000, Smucker's Uncrustables a week. A week. They beat everybody else out. The 2nd place team, the Seattle Seahawks, only eats about 3,200 per week.

7000 to 3,200. There must be, like, a Smucker's plant nearby. There has to be right in Denver. There has to be, like, the official they they have to have some sort of sponsorship thing with Smucker's. They really, really should.

Smucker's and Uncrustables are great, but I cannot eat that many. Like, that's if you actually sat there and do the math, I mean, how many players are on an NFL team? 54? NFL team roster size. Let's look that up real quick.

53 players. I was one off. 7000 a week. Divide that amongst 7 days with 53 players. Wow.

Still a a a ton of Uncrustables. Kay Bear 1 0 1, Idaho's only rock station. More often than not, people will still come up to me and ask, hey. Why why do they call you Peaches on Kay Bear? And I have to say, well, my last name's Peach.

The name's Brendon Peach. Post on Facebook all the time under my real name in the Kay Bear 101 Idaho Rock and Metal Facebook group. People still ask me. Why why why are you called Peaches? Like, I would love to know as to what they thought the actual answer was.

I should ask them that next time. Be like, hey. Why do you think my name's Peaches? See what they say. Well, I thought I had a silly name until I saw this list here of the 2024, 2025 NC, double a, d one men's basketball, first team, all name team, like the silliest names in all of d one men's basketball.

Straight out of, the University of Rhode Island, there's a guy named Always Wright. First name is legitimately Always. Last name Wright, but it's spelled w r I g h t. Who decided to name their kid Po Boy King, p o apostrophe, b o I g h, King? Then there is a player for the the for Kansas City.

His name is Gob Gob. Gob Gob. Another guy named Supreme Cook out of Oregon, Kaisayu, k a I space y u out of Liberty, and no joke, the last one here from Utah Tech. This guy's name is Tennessee Rainwater. Who who who carried a baby for 9 months and said, yeah, let me name name let me just name this kid Tennessee.

We already have a silly last name with Rainwater. Let's just make this name even worse. Well, the the guy is pretty successful. All these guys are pretty successful. They're d one basketball players.

So they're doing pretty well for themselves. Hopefully, they make it to the pros. Because with names like this, you know their jerseys are going to sell. Idaho's on the rock station, k Bear 101. Why is it that every movie now has to have some sort of signature popcorn bucket?

I mean, have you noticed that? The popcorn bucket craze was gone for a long while there. Occasionally, some big blockbuster hit had a popcorn bucket that people would buy, but, I I just recently noticed that the ghost movie right here right now, they had a popcorn bucket and drink cup, and I'm like, you know what? I'll just take the cup. They only had 2, of the popcorn buckets left.

I'll I'll I was like, I'll save those for another person. Plus, they were, like, $30 for a tin popcorn bucket, and I was thinking, like, when am I ever gonna use this again? I can't bring it into the movie theater, and I don't have, well, I don't really make popcorn all that much at home. I could if I bought the popcorn bucket, but that's besides the point. Right?

And then Dune had their popcorn bucket that looked like something we're not gonna talk about on the air. And then the Deadpool and Wolverine movie had a popcorn bucket that made fun of of the Dune 1. And now Gladiator 2 has a popcorn bucket. Terrifier 3 has a signature popcorn bucket, which I don't know how people can eat popcorn out of that thing. You're basically opening Art the Clown's head and eating popcorn out of that.

There's, like, blood all over the sides of his head. Like, yeah. Thanks. I this is exactly what I what I want to imagine when eating popcorn. Does it make any sense?

It's kinda it's a silly thing because where are you where are you gonna store these popcorn buckets too? You're gonna put them in the the cupboard in the kitchen and say, oh, it's movie night. Let's bring out the the Dune popcorn bucket with the weird thing on the top there. No. You're just gonna eat popcorn out of a regular bowl.

There's a big election coming up in November in the small town of Kyle, Saskatchewan, and no one knows who to vote for because, well, nobody no one is running. George Williams, the mayor of the Canadian town, which has a population of about 4 20, is retiring 3 years on the job. That leaves the office open, but no one wants it. The election is coming up on November 13th, and a single person has stepped up to throw his or her hat into the ring. There's also an open spot on the town council up for grabs, but no one wants that either.

The town's chief administrative officer, Amber Dashney, says it's a little concerning, but I am confident that someone will step forward. If not, the council will select someone to serve as deputy mayor until they can find someone who wants the job. So I don't know how long it will take for one of one person here in the US to get their Canadian citizenship in order to become the mayor. But I think if Victor could if Victor could speedrun the citizenship process, somehow become the mayor of Kyle, Saskatchewan there you go. Victor Wolt for mayor.

Kay Bear 101. I had a hose on the rock station Halloween this Thursday. It's approaching really fast. I do not have any plans. Thought I had something, but I was like, you know what?

Maybe not. And now I'm probably just gonna stay inside on Halloween night and, probably hand out candy. We'll see if, anybody even comes to my front door. My front door is very tough to find as if I had trouble trying to get my friends to find it when they first, went and hung out in my place. Like, they call me right right when they pull up.

Hey. Where's your front door? Oh, you gotta go around this side and make your way over here, and there you go. But, yeah, I mean, there's really nothing to do as a guy who's by himself as a 28 year old on Halloween night. You just kinda have to wait until Thanksgiving and Christmas.

And next month, I'm trying to figure out what my plans are to return home, if I should return home for Thanksgiving and just spend Christmas out here or just wait until Christmas to then just go home and see the family. But the big problem with Christmas out here is or going back home for my family and stuff to spend time with them is that they'll have to ship my presents out to me here after I open them over there. I could do some majorly lawn road trip and drive from Idaho Falls to Seal Beach, then just come back with all of my Christmas gifts, but that wouldn't that would cause I mean, that would be 2 days extra that I would need to have to drive because it's about 13 hours nonstop one way. And I I really don't wanna do that drive. I really don't.

I'd much rather just fly and make it as short as possible. I hate traveling. I I love the idea of traveling, being at a certain place new or visiting for my family and stuff, but the process in getting there is the worst part, especially if you could imagine a 6 foot 9, 300 plus pound guy in an airplane or in a car for long extended hours. It's not that pleasant. Peaches Pit Party on Kay Barrett 101.

Idaho's on the rock station. Another thing about Halloween this Thursday is to be smart out there driving around. If you are gonna be traveling around, make sure to watch out for the kids running all over the place. People are gonna be trick or treating with their young ones, and so you wanna make sure that they stay safe. You don't necessarily speed down the street.

There's been tons of people complaining about, all different types of traffic laws on the Life in Idaho Falls Facebook group. And, overall, just be a defensive driver. Watch out for those that are just texting while driving. You can emphasize as much as you like. Don't text and drive.

Don't do this. Don't do that. But in the long run, people are going to do exactly that because people don't listen. It's a true thing. You're gonna have people who still drink and drive no matter how many times we say, do not do that.

Like, there's the whole every 15 minutes program that high schools get across the country, high schools use across the country to prevent stuff from, like like, drinking and driving. Don't text and drive. But you know what? There's still some idiots out there, and for some reason, they think it's okay to do so. So be be careful on Halloween.

And like I said before, don't be that person that says, aren't you a little old to be trick or treating? Get out of here. Idaho's only rock station, K Bear 101. I figured, you know what? Halloween this Thursday, you might as well I might as well ask the question, what is the scariest movie you've ever watched?

The first movie that comes to your mind, call in right now. Let me know that answer. 208-535-1015. For me, I mean, the scariest movie that I've ever seen would have to be well, I can't really think of one that's, like, overly scary. I mean, there's a lot of great scary movies out there.

I talked about that one with Victor on the noon hour of madness and mayhem powered by Jalisco's called His House where it's that couple from South Sudan. They left South Sudan, came to the UK to escape the war that was going on in South Sudan, and the house that they're in is trying to, well, just haunt them and tried their trying its best to kill it kill them, I should say. But that's the first movie that comes to my mind. What is yours? 208-535-1015.

What's the scariest horror movie you've ever watched? My dad was the first guy to answer this question on our KBR Facebook page just saying Scream, the movie Scream, of course, which I have not seen yet. He's seen he's watched that without me. I I need to add that to my to be watched before Halloween list, which is definitely not getting completed before Halloween. Hey, K Bear.

How's it going? Pretty good. How about you, Beatrice? It's been a day. It's been a day.

But what's the scariest movie you've ever you've ever seen? So, you know, the all time has gotta be The Exorcist, the original Exorcist. But the one that has, like, the unedited stuff where she's, like, walking like a backward crab spider and, like, I don't know. There's something about that movie. Like, I still watch it to this day and it freaks the absolute you know what out of me.

But, I went for another movie more recently. It was Annabelle. And I don't know what it was about that movie, but it scared the the Jesus out of me. Now, for the original Exorcist, I I unfortunately now this may seem like a a terrible thing to say. I have not seen the original Exorcist.

But, one, because I feel like watching a movie that old is going to not really stand the test of time. And, the way that you said that, like, she was crawling backwards doing this crab walk, I wonder if she was specifically told to do something like that or it might have been just, like, there was there was no CGI back then, so it had to be, like, the actor doing something like that, or maybe it was a a a It was a double. It was a double? Okay. That's what I thought.

It it it was a double, but yeah. Still. Yeah. And and I think they did the thing where they film it in reverse when they're going backwards to give it that weird creepy forward look that looks backwards, you know. Yeah.

Just some 19 seventies, film magic which is, which is pretty cool. But there's a lot of things and, I think the, there's a version you've never seen is what it's called. And, there's some things that are in it that aren't in the the mainstream one that, just, you know, it just makes your skin crawl. 208-535-1015. What is the scariest movie that you have ever seen?

I'm looking at the Facebook post here at, Kay Bert 101 FM. I'm seeing here, well, Hereditary. That's one of those, but this is why the segment's called The Peach Throne, one of the funniest horror movies I've ever seen just because of how silly it was to me. I mean, really, people thought that was scary. It just it blows my mind.

Someone, would put here Nathan put here, honestly, not even a horror movie, but rather a historical film filmed like it was one. The movie is called Come and See. It's a Soviet movie about a Belarusian boy surviving the Holocaust in Belarus as, well, this is a really in-depth answer. As Waffen SS, okay, I'm not saying the German word, it's a tough one to say, death squads roam through and just start wiping out villages with some locals even helping. All the movie atrocities are directly inspired by real life atrocities committed during occupation.

Isn't that sad to watch stuff like that come to life? I mean, you read about it in the textbooks growing up, but seeing that visually, it's very upsetting. 208-535-1015. What's the scariest horror movie you've ever watched? Let me know for Depeach the Rhone.

Hey, K Bear. How's it going? Not too bad. How's it going, bitch? Oh, same old stuff, man.

What's the scariest horror movie you've ever seen? The one that always scared me the most was The Wizard of Oz. Just that Wicked Witch of the West and and those flying monkeys with her? Yeah. The the original one.

Right. With Judy Judy Garland, is that her name? Yeah. I think that's her name. But, yeah, I was I mean, when I was a little kid, well, I'm almost 60 years old.

So that was, like, pretty big. They showed it all the time on Right. What TV on what TV you could get back then. Mhmm. Yeah.

I can only imagine seeing that movie for the very first time, like, way back in the day and how The Wicked Witch and The Flying Monkeys just freaked me out. Not the Lollipop Guild? No. No. No.

That sounds terrible. Actually, I I rented a house for some folks that was my skin. You're you're not old balls. But yeah. Yeah.
