The Viktor Wilt Show

Within minutes, we’re ricocheting between existential debates about quitting alcohol, questionable medical decisions, and the horrifying realization that grown adults have to beg permission to get snipped like it’s a side quest locked behind a level requirement. From there, the show detonates into a fever dream of half-legal advice and aggressively unhelpful life guidance, featuring everything from the economics of Mexican surgeries to the deeply unsettling logistics of ending up in a foreign prison because you wanted an all-inclusive margarita experience. Then, like a derailed shopping cart with a jet engine strapped to it, the episode swerves into listener call-ins, unleashing a parade of deeply cursed jail stories—blood-soaked drunk tanks, emotionally unstable strangers named “Big Bubba,” and a man rocking in a pool of his own life choices while the system shrugs and says “he’ll be fine.” Just when you think it can’t get more unhinged, the show pivots into Walmart conspiracies, license plate loopholes, and a philosophical breakdown of whether hiding your registration behind a bike rack makes you a criminal or a genius. Somewhere in the middle of this chaos, actual traffic advice attempts to claw its way to the surface—motorcycle laws, road construction confusion, and the shocking revelation that using a highway like a bonus lane in Mario Kart is, in fact, frowned upon. The finale descends into a paranoid hallucination about being flipped off by strangers—only to reveal it’s because of a revenge prank involving a sign encouraging public hostility—before wrapping up with a surprisingly sincere plea to not burn the entire state down with fireworks. In the end, this episode feels less like a radio show and more like being trapped in a group chat where everyone is slightly unwell, dangerously opinionated, and one bad decision away from another story that absolutely should not be told on air—but definitely will be next week. 

What is The Viktor Wilt Show?

The Viktor Wilt Show daily recap! If you miss the show weekdays from 6A-10A MST, you've come to the right place.

Speaker 1: We got cops in the house. Oh, buddy. That ride is Friday. Yeah, yeah. Party time. Yeah, get your song. I'm so excited for today.

Speaker 2: What is going on? You are fired up for today. I'm lying.

Speaker 1: I'm tired and grumpy. All right?

Speaker 2: I was going to say, man, this is something different.

Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I'm just a big fat liar.

Speaker 2: I wasn't going to say anything about fat. You guys were talking earlier about what you shouldn't say on today's day and age, and that's one thing I can't.

Speaker 1: You can call me fat. I don't care. I call Peaches fat. He calls me fat. We call Jaden Skinny.

Speaker 2: I don't care. I'll call you all three observant. All right.

Speaker 1: This is true, and we accurately report. And I'm working on slimming down. You know, I've been drinking no booze. That's got to help. Yeah. Why are you such a quitter? You know, you're only on this planet one time. Quit everybody. You know, just give up. Throw in the towel.

Speaker 2: Did you even ever perfect it? No, no, none of the above.

Speaker 1: But I'm quitting anyway. I'm getting the white flag out. I'm waving it. Done. So what's new with you this week?

Speaker 2: Well, I'm celebrating a holiday today, but obviously you're not.

Speaker 1: I mean, I guess you have today off. Yeah. Oh, hey, management.

Speaker 3: It's a national holiday that, you know, how the banks are closed. You know, we can't get anything done today. And the post office. Yeah, I can't send any mail. Everyone gets a day off except us. You know, who wants to be home right now? I know one guy.

Speaker 2: Give me three guesses.

Speaker 1: I know we got that today that we don't get to, you know, enjoy a day off with. And then I'm sure father's day. That'll be a dud for me as well.

Speaker 2: Do you even have DNA proof you are the father of one of them?

Speaker 1: I actually do. It's not my fault. Oh, geez. So everything been going good? Yeah, I had to go to the DNA store. That's good. I mean, it's been many years since I had to. Thankfully, never again, unless surgery fails and suddenly reverses itself. And I am too old for that.

So that better not happen. Seems to be, I guess, not working for, you know, 20 years or so. Did you know that in this state doctors can tell you, no, you can't do that at your age. Yeah, I tried to get fixed when I was 22. And they're like, no, you got to wait till you're 25. They really told you that. Oh, yeah, they wouldn't let me do it.

Speaker 2: Bunch of they knew there was too much valuable assets to come from you.

Speaker 1: No, I'd already gotten the valuable assets into the world. And I was like, two's enough. I don't want any more. Let's let's nip this in the blood.

Speaker 2: You don't realize I travel in a somewhat good rock and roll band.

Speaker 1: So let's snip this in the bus. I got people that want this. And so I had to wait years to get it done.

Speaker 2: Three, actually, if you do the math. Three.

Speaker 1: Three years. And I tell you, yeah, first thing I did when I turned 25 was went right back in. I was like, OK, you told me to wait. I still think the same.

Speaker 2: I haven't changed my mind. Why didn't you go to Mexico?

Speaker 1: I probably couldn't afford it. You know, it's a long drive.

Speaker 2: And you never know what would come out of that. Yeah.

Speaker 1: I mean, I know a lot of people go down to Mexico to get medical treatment because it's more affordable than here. But it seems iffy to me. I've heard some horror stories. Yeah.

You know, so I'm just, you know, even though I've had some bad experiences with medical procedures here, it still, you know, fills just a little bit more reassuring going to a local office. Correct. Yeah. But next time these prices keep going up, screw it, going to Mexico.

Speaker 2: That was what the surgery was supposed to prevent.

Speaker 1: Yeah. And actually, at this point, might be cheaper to like fly, rent a week long, you know, stay at an all inclusive resort and get your surgery. Then it would be to with insurance go to a doctor.

Speaker 2: You don't have any fun though. You're off the wagon or on the wagon. What are you? Yeah, I'm on the wagon.

Speaker 1: That's what they call on the wagon on the wagon, which you think. Yeah. Yeah. I guess you're on the wagon. You're cruising along doing good. You fall off. You're a disaster. Yeah. I guess all inclusive resorts, you're only going to get your money's worth of your pound and

Speaker 2: booze or you're going to get a little more of that fat.

Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. I can go eat like a pig. Or probably turn myself into a disaster and end up in a Mexican prison, which doesn't sound good. I don't want to watch a lot of those locked up abroad shows.

But the thought of a Mexican prison, it just sounds a little scary. A little rough. A little rough. A little bit different than the drunk tank in Rexburg. You're the only occupant. It's pretty hard, I bet, to get arrested for being drunk in Rexburg since there's nowhere to buy booze. You got like two stores in town.

You'd wear your shoes out, getting it. Yeah. Well, you at least you don't have to drive into town, right? Just the outskirts. They hide it out there. Pretend it doesn't exist.

Rexburg. So people, as you may have guessed, it's about time for some traffic school powered by the Advocates, injury attorneys. And I know I had something dumb I was going to ask you about.

Speaker 2: I should we should ask all the listeners. What's the craziest jail or prison you've been locked up in?

Speaker 1: Hey, I would love to hear that. Listen, you're out of states. You know, you don't have to give us your real name, but if you have been locked up in a crazy jail, we would love to hear your story.

Speaker 2: To all the cops set them up.

Speaker 1: Of course they did. You guys are corrupt. So let's hear your stories. 208 535 1015. And oh, where were you last night? Well, are you asking? That's my question for the show.

Speaker 2: My attorney says don't answer any questions until I know what the outcome is.

Speaker 1: Well, I was just curious because I know that a variety of servers in the area had to attend a state police class at the arena about selling and serving alcohol. Oh, yeah.

And it was hosted by the ISP. Trooper Stevens. And I was like, well, is Crane there? No, no, he's just farting around. Doing nothing. I mean, come on now.

Why don't you get out and do it? And regarding that, I guess you get some kind of a certificate and things like that. Is that required by law for every server in Idaho? They're getting there. Yep.

Yeah, that's what's going on there. Because when I heard about this, I'm like, OK, they're going to bring in everyone in town who serves alcohol. Like, does that include people who ring it up at a grocery store? That's like 30 percent, right? Yeah, I was like, are they packing the whole arena? That's a lot of people. When you think about everyone who's involved in serving alcohol, but I guess it was in a conference room. So I was like, well, maybe, you know, management was like, this will be a good idea to get these certificates. I was just kind of curious. Yeah, if everybody had to go because that ain't my time last night, I had plans I wanted to hang out with Ravonda.

Speaker 2: When do you when do you serve alcohol? Do they call that consider that serving alcohol when you give it to Ravonda? There you go.

Speaker 1: Was I supposed to go?

Speaker 2: Do I need to serve to them again? The local grocery store walked out the car and handed it to her. Yeah.

Speaker 1: Yeah. So I'm hanging out at home doing chores all night when I could be having fun with Ravonda. She's got to go sit at that all night. Like, this is a waste of time.

Speaker 2: There is nothing worse than hanging out with the cops all night.

Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Well, at least you guys tried to throw some humor in the mix. She was sending me some videos from it and one point, a clip from the movie Superbad pops up. I'm like, how is Mick Lovin trying to buy booze at a gas station from Superbad? A training opportunity.

So glad you guys make it fun. I think it could be a little bit shorter, though. Yes, that you attended. Or maybe you eliminate the Q &A. Like, have you ever been in an insurance meeting with your fellow employees? OK, you've got people who like, say, Ravonda and her manager who have been serving for a long time.

They know the rules. Then then you got the newer people that maybe have questions. Nothing worse than a Q &A when everybody wants to just get out of there. There's always like we used to have work meetings here with some employees you might remember from back in the day. I've heard rumors and they might never shut up in the meetings and keep asking questions they could ask through email later on. If you were ever at any kind of meeting and you have a question, no one in that room wants you to ask that question.

All right. Yeah, we've had insurance meetings before and. You know, you end up in a conference room with like 100 people and you just know somebody's going to ask a question that's in the booklet you're holding in your hands. Read the information. OK, we shouldn't even have to have those meetings to begin with because of the booklet.

Speaker 2: I'm glad to say I got you off track.

Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Traffic school powered by the advocate. No, just inconvenienced my evening. Then I ended up having to stay up too late. Now I'm tired and grumpy. Oh, meetings. All right. Well, good job in educating the public on, you know, alcohol laws and things like that. I don't know what you guys do. I didn't ask the details.

I was like, what movie clips did they have? Hey, Bear, you are live on traffic school powered by the advocates, injury attorneys. Who's this? Oh, you know who it is.

Speaker 3: Oh, man. So talking about the the alcohol class that everybody has to take over serving people, not my proudest moment, but in 2017, a friend of mine had to go to that class and she was working at a community store and she said, you were one of the first videos on the presentation of serving people. I wish I could have seen it. I don't know if it's still on there or not, but yeah, once this train leaves the station, it doesn't have any breaks, man.

Speaker 2: And you said, I hadn't even got my first serving yet. That's just me.

Speaker 1: Yeah, I think a lot of people might be unaware that your the server themselves can face serious charges for over serving. Yeah. So when they're when they're working and you're all hammered and you get pissed at them because they won't give you another drink, shut up and get an Uber and go home.

All right. You're going to get them sent to jail. They can get in serious problems when you get out and you end up, you know, hurting somebody because you're hammered. So don't yell at your bartenders. Just shut up and go home. Right.

Speaker 2: There's nothing funner than that buddy yours that said, hey, whatever you do, don't let me spend more than this much. Oh, yeah. That point you tell, OK, you're done. Oh, you're a real good friend. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1: Try to try to tell somebody who's hammered no more drinks. Yeah, that always works out great.

Speaker 3: Oh, that's funny. Well, he, well, I got you on the line.

Speaker 2: Yeah, I take care of it. So it got a little time. Well, as long as we're here. So I was I he'd gone to Walmart. I avoid that place like the plague, but I had to go in there for dog. Just to be honest with you, they don't care if you come there or not either.

Speaker 3: I mean, well, you go at seven o'clock in the morning, you avoid most of the riffraff, so

Speaker 1: when you don't have to listen to that terrible Walmart radio, if you go before like eight or nine a.m.

Speaker 2: or something, no, you're at Walmart radio. I don't hang out there. Walmart radio. It's almost as bad as Spotify's DJ DJ X. Oh, there are so many terrible radio DJs out there. What are you?

DJ X is the worst. Why don't you get yourself in Walmart? I should. I should. But you have to move to where's Walmart, Arkansas. Why don't you just get with the local Walmart and say, well, live broadcast here. I would try.

Speaker 1: But I've looked at the Walmart radio jobs because they're one of the few radio jobs with decent pay, but you had to relocate to Arkansas or wherever there. Yeah, I think it's Arkansas.

Speaker 2: He's just joking. He never think about jumping ship.

Speaker 1: Not to Arkansas.

Speaker 4: Who wants to live there?

Speaker 3: Down south. Or the whole region's a dump.

Speaker 1: Down with the entire southern portion of the US.

Speaker 3: I want to live near hurricanes and tornadoes. Sounds fun.

Speaker 2: I'd rather live next to a nuclear factory.

Speaker 3: Oh, man. So, yeah, so I'm pulling out of Walmart and this dude like eighty two Honda cord and he's got like four bikes on the back. And you can't even see his license plate. Now, what do you think? You're the cops. I'm like, good on you, man. That's that's one way to hide your registrations expired.

Speaker 2: Hey, you don't have to put a sticker on him here in a few weeks anyway.

Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't need that anymore. Copson.

Speaker 4: I'm walking my day.

Speaker 3: No, back in my day, you just find the nearest mud pit. And, you know, you just take a bunch of mud and slap it on license plate. You're good to go. Who needs registration?

Speaker 2: Yeah, that's called. Yeah, they got to be clear and visible in the old code.

Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm never buying my registration again. Not obstructed.

Speaker 3: I just get a bike rack and fill her up.

Speaker 2: Heck yeah. Hey, can you ride a bike without trading wheels? Because I know Victor can.

Speaker 1: It was rough the last time I tried. Oh, yeah, I need to fix my front tire. I somehow popped it. I got a got a thorn in it or something.

Speaker 2: No, no, if you leave it in the garage for years without riding it, it'll just go flat. Oh, that's the problem.

Speaker 3: No, I think at my age, after the age of 50, the last time I rode a skateboard is the last time I rode a skateboard, man. I don't do bikes, skateboards, you know, climbing up a ladder. If you're above the third rung and you're over 50, you're in danger. Absolutely, man.

Speaker 1: Well, yeah, no, no obscuring your license plates, everybody. The cops don't like it.

Speaker 3: Oh, no, no, no. Right on. Well, hey, you guys have a good week, man. Enjoy the show. You too, Carl. Peace. All right, we'll see you in a minute.

Speaker 2: No, I swear, dude, we can use that as our intro.

Speaker 1: I guess we'll just listen to. So here's the. Yeah, paradise. Is that paradise city? Paradise. That's kind of the same, don't they? A little bit. You know, sweet child of mine's got the do do do do do. You know, I'm talking about that's what I was thinking.

I'm great at being in key trying to sing guitar notes. Yo fools, call us up to a 8 5 3 5 1 0 1 5. It's traffic school powered by the advocates. I got no pre prepared questions for the program today.

So we really need you people to call us at 208 5 3 5 1 0 1 5. I know I had something obnoxious. I was going to ask and it's driving me crazy that I can't think of it.

Speaker 2: Well, let me tell you about this. Why you're thinking about it. They're doing work out on US 20, right? Between Idaho Falls and Rigby right now. They're doing a new overlay in the evenings. Just know this, even though they're doing that, that does not make it a three lane highway.

Speaker 1: Even if we need them badly, doesn't make it a three lane highway. Yeah. Even if you're on a motorcycle.

Speaker 2: Yeah, they're putting the white line down now. So that's going to help. But yeah, had dashes down the right shoulder on both sides. And so people would use it as a three lane as soon as they'd come on an on ramp. They'd stay in that lane and use it as a three lane. Geez.

Speaker 1: Caller, what's up? Hey, what's up guys? Not much. Who's this? This is Wade. Wade, what you got for us today?

Speaker 3: Hey, yeah. So I was just curious. I just picked up my motorcycle permit just recently. And so with that, I know there's like three main roles of like do nots until you get like your actual endorsement. So one of them being like, you can't go on like the interstate and whatnot. I'm curious on if like highways are still okay. Yeah.

Speaker 2: Two lane highways. I, if I remember right now, I failed at this myself when I got my motorcycle endorsement here years ago, I got it late. We went down and was riding them back from Las Vegas and, and I got study in that. And I'm like, oh man, well, there's no way out of Las Vegas without being on the interstate. So I just hope for the best there. But yeah, no interstate or highway riding until you get your hours in.

Speaker 3: Okay. So no highways either. Yeah. Okay. Perfect. Yeah. I just wanted to double check on that. Cause you know, I've heard mixed things.

Speaker 2: So yeah, it is good to get used to that bike and boy, please watch out for other traffic, always drive defensively. Don't ever drive just relax your offensively because man, you'll get in trouble. Oh yeah. Yeah, definitely.

Speaker 3: All right. We'll enjoy that. Well, that, that answers it. Definitely. I will for sure. Right.

Speaker 1: Oh man. Much appreciated. All right. You have yourself a great weekend.

Speaker 3: Definitely. You guys too. Hey, thanks man. Peace. Yep. Bye.

Speaker 1: Hey, caller, hold on a second. Got to do the FCC mandated

Speaker 2: legal ID starting you screw things up.

Speaker 1: I didn't do this in government. You must say these things once every hour. These things have to be said. All right, caller, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this?

Speaker 4: Uh, this is Brandon. Um, uh, how are you guys?

Speaker 2: Hey, Brenda. I got a question for you. Are you glad we took the time to listen to the fact that this is the Victor Wilts show required by the government.

Speaker 1: I know I love you guys. Oh yeah. I'm happy to listen to you guys right now.

Speaker 1: Well, I appreciate that. Heck yeah. It's awesome. So what's up?

Speaker 4: So can I, can I do any question?

Speaker 2: Yeah, we love any question. Sure. I would rather know if you've been incarcerated out of state.

Speaker 1: Yeah, we want to hear your bad jail stories.

Speaker 4: I actually have actually, um, yeah, um, uh, I've, I'm a, I've been in South Carolina. It's pretty crazy.

Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. Well, I hope for nothing too bad.

Speaker 4: Yeah. It's one of the craziest things, honestly.

Speaker 1: Um, you can feel free to go into detail or not. It's your life.

Speaker 4: Okay. Um, so one of the memories I have is I met this guy named Big Bubba.

Speaker 1: Okay. Now hold on, hold on. That's Victor's uncle. I was going to say, I've heard these kinds of stories before and you got to remember we're on public broadcast radio. All right.

I know, but it's so. He took me under his wing. Took you under his wing. So he, Okay, I have like the perfect thing I want to say, but I'm not going to say it. I'm glad you had someone to take care of you. Yeah. Okay, so did you have a question for the show? Yeah.

Speaker 4: What about have have you how I don't know how to say it. Just throw it out there. What kind of car do you drive? We're in this question, but. What kind of car do I drive?

Speaker 2: Yeah, I drive a Dodge Durango. Oh, what year? I like a 20, 25. Maybe I don't know.

Speaker 4: My mom, my mom once had a Dodge Durango Fidel. No, things are nice.

Speaker 2: Yes. Oh, good for you. No, good for her mother.

Speaker 1: That's true. Cool. I mean, we said any question goes. Yeah. So I drive a Toyota. Nobody asked.

Speaker 4: Nobody cares. My mom actually has a Toyota Tundra 2004 right now.

Speaker 2: How many vehicles your mom has? She has a car dealership.

Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to say your mom's got a lot of O good for you coming her way. I know, right? I wish I could have more than one vehicle.

Yeah. Look at these rich people calling into this show. High class, lots of money. I got two cars.

In this economy, King in the castle, King in the castle. I have multiple vehicles. Yeah. Oh, you guys are funny. And I saw that the economy is fantastic. What are you talking about?

Speaker 4: I know, right? It's on the next day. I know, right?

Speaker 1: Well, we appreciate the call today and hope you have a good one. I will. Bye bye. All right, peace. OK, everybody, 208-535-1015, the number to call for traffic school powered by the advocates. All right, we're two weeks away from new laws. Oh, did you guys get the final breakdown on what dumb crap the government's doing?

Speaker 2: I should have brought it. Yes, I do. I do cheat sheet. Yeah.

Speaker 1: OK, because we know about the no stickers on license plates, which are going to save me about $90 a year. That's fantastic. Uh, what else is happening that comes to mind? Oh, man. I see a lot of they want to do this and that. And then, you know, I don't know what the final the final answer was.

Speaker 2: To print that off and bring it in, we'll go through it. OK, cool.

Speaker 1: K-Bear, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this? This is Scott from Bancroft. Scott from Bancroft.

Speaker 2: Holy moly, is Tully still open?

Speaker 5: Oh, no, he died and then they put his his wife into a home and they sold it. Dang, that's. And then it demolished it.

Speaker 2: Best milkshakes ever. Really?

Speaker 5: Yeah. I know it was it was awesome. Anyway, I got an out of state jail story, I guess.

Speaker 2: That makes sense living in Bancroft.

Speaker 5: Well, I was born and raised in Tully, Utah, so. That's probably makes more sense.

Speaker 1: Just like living in the sticks. Hey, it's nice and cool.

Speaker 5: Heck yeah. So anyway, I'm about 21. And they just passed on Utah at that time. If you have unpaid tickets or fines, they spend your driver's license. That's today. Well, OK, yeah, but I did not know this. So I'm going up to Rock Springs to visit a friend. And I get just far enough out of Evanston, where I hit Sweetwater County line, which is a huge county. I get pulled over, give them a license, come find out it's not about. So they take me to Green River, put me in jail. I told them, hey, my friends going to come bail me out.

Everything's cool, you know, so they didn't totally book me. But I get into this into the drunk tank to wait for my friend to come. And there's this guy in there sitting on the floor. Against the wall with his feet, you know, on the floor and his knees up.

He's got one hand on each temple, you know, and his elbows on his knees. He's slowly rocking back and forth, moaning. Well, I look at the floor and there's blood everywhere, just everywhere. There's blood.

Speaker 1: So I'd be multitasking during this.

Speaker 2: It sounds like anything crazy just that all of a sudden I hear blood and it's a seatbelt violation. It sounds like.

Speaker 5: But no, this is this is where it gets weird because I'm in there for like an hour. And just outside of Evanston, the Green River is like another hour to get there. So I don't know when they brought this guy in, but I'm in there for an hour until my friend shows up. She comes to get me.

I get out and I ask the booking guy. I'm like, what's this guy in here for? Well, he went to he wanted to go see his kids. But so he went over to his ex's house. She wouldn't let him see the kids or grab one kid underneath each arm. And started walking out of the house. That's called kidnap. Well, yeah, her new boyfriend proceeded to come out the house and be this guy in there with ever. So now this guy's sitting in a drunk tank in Green River, bleeding.

I've already been there an hour and I'm leaving. And so I asked the guy, I said, well, are what needs all he'll be OK? He'll be OK. The jailer guy, you know, the one in the bullpen, the big big is how he'll be OK. Everything's fine. I'm like, Jesus. So as far as a scary jail, I don't ever want to go back to Wyoming.

Wow. I mean, they left this guy in there as far as I know. I mean, I know he was in there for an hour and they didn't care. He was just like, holy crap.

Speaker 1: They need to play this song just in the background in that jail.

Speaker 3: OK, sorry.

Speaker 5: I mean, it was no, that's cool. But I mean, it was I was like, holy crap, you know, I've heard about going to John Mexico, I've heard about where I am in Sweetwater County in Green River, sitting in, you know, a jail cell with this guy is in there at least an hour. Well, and they don't care. They're like, I whatever he

Speaker 2: that's about 45 minutes longer than most people end up in jail when we take them there.

Speaker 5: Well, I've been there more than once and I've never seen. Anything like that. That was I was just like, holy, shouldn't you guys do something with this poor man?

Speaker 1: Well, Wyoming's going downhill.

Speaker 2: It's going down a lot of years ago. I was driving through Wyoming recently, went to a gas station. They had a sign on the door that said, no firearms allowed.

Speaker 1: Bunch of liberals over there. And while I'm over there, I can't bring my. I'm never coming to this state again.

Speaker 5: I thought that's a real state. Wyoming, no firearms.

Speaker 1: I thought it was at a gas station. No firearms allowed.

Speaker 2: I thought you'd walk up and hug the clerk and say, thanks for being one of me.

Speaker 1: You know, I just wanted to take pictures and post them in the life in Idaho Falls group and go, guess what state I'm in. Just take a picture of the sign. Which state do you think I'm driving through right now?

Speaker 5: Everybody would probably. Washington, Oregon or Colorado, California. Nope. Yeah. See, and this, this is back in the nineties. So I mean, I hope sweet water counters cleaned it up a little bit since then, but I was just like, holy crap, I'm never getting out of this jail. If they don't care about this guy, I'm going to be here for a while.

Speaker 1: Well, glad you made your way out, man.

Speaker 2: I got to be honest with you. I'm thinking if he was kidnapping people, I'm glad he got more in an hour. Well, I mean.

Speaker 5: And I agree with you, but, you know, being a divorce dad, I'm like, you know, she wouldn't let him see his kids and I mean, at least get him to the hospital.

Speaker 3: Yeah. He had hammer. He had hammer holes in his head. Oh, gosh.

Speaker 5: So to me, I'm like, you guys said what jelly never want to go to. I don't want to go to 1990, 1998 sweet water, Charlie Jeller.

Speaker 3: All right. For sure. Get the knell. Don't let all the while.

Speaker 1: Yeah. You guys have a good one, man. Hey, you too, man. Good to hear from you. Yeah. See you. Peace.

Speaker 2: Oh, did you have something? So years, years ago, I arrested this young lady that celebrated a little too much on her 21st birthday.

Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. She don't want to get arrested on your 21st. And she's with all her college friends and and I end up having to book her on DUI. She's totally blitzed, right?

Yeah. And so I take her to one of our local jails and they have a holding cell that has plexiglass so that they can view them from the booking room at all times. And it's a special holding cell. Well, you also have to book the individual right next to that. So we go in there, she gets patted down by a female jailer.

We walk her over to the booking area. And as we walk around the corner, there's a guy in that holding cell that has a plexiglass that had stripped off all his clothes. He's buck naked. And all that's in there is like a concrete bed and he jumps off of that concrete towards the plexiglass and just splats against it like a cartoon.

Oh, my gosh. And then slip down and then he get back up on it and jump at the plexiglass. Again, screaming the whole time at this girl, how he was going to harm her. And so we obviously, after like the second attempt, we move her so she doesn't have to listen to this. But the interesting thing about it, her mom bonded her out shortly after she didn't have to get booked into any cell, but she gets bonded out.

That's all I knew. Well, about six months later, I get a hundred and note in the mail thanking me that she would never, ever end up in a position that she got the hiccups out of nowhere. Now, all right. Fun, fun call us people because I can't talk to oh, wait, five, three, five, one oh one five. And I had something I was going to say, but the hiccups distract.

Speaker 2: This is like the 46th time today. You said I've got something I want to say.

Speaker 1: I got something to say. Gotta be careful though. Never know who you're going to bother with the things I have to say. Come on people last call two oh eight five three five one oh one five four traffic school powered by the advocates. You're live on the show. Who's this? Jake. What up, dude? What up?

Speaker 2: Is this Jake from state?

Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm Jake from Stensky. What up, man? Um, so I got, I got put in jail down in Texas one time down in Lumberton, Texas about four or five years ago. Lumberton?

Speaker 1: Yeah, Lumberton. Yeah, I just like to pull these places up on the map.

Speaker 6: So it's kind of near Louisiana, pretty close to Louisiana.

Speaker 1: All right, Lumberton. I got it on the map. Go ahead. Okay.

Speaker 6: So, um, I, I moved from Denver down there to live with my sister. I just couldn't afford to live in Denver no more. So I moved down there and doing so great mentally health wise, you know, depression and whatnot and, you know, doing some things that I shouldn't have been doing myself. Hey, don't do that. I can't. They keep going. Yeah.

Well, that's where it's going to end or whatever it kind of. So anyway, I was doing some stuff in the house and she called a health and wellness check on me. And so the cops see about, God, there was probably like five or six and showed up to the show up to the house and come into my room, you know, and stuff like that and come and take me out from certain, asking me some questions and whatnot.

And I was just kind of being a stubborn little jerk, you know what I mean? And, um, well, one of them comes out of my room and he's like, Hey, we're, we're going to take you to jail. I'm like, what am I going to jail for? Like what, what did I do? You know, they found a paraphernalia pipe, you know, how to pipe from smoking and stuff like that. Still from Denver. And so they saw that and they took me to jail for, for paraphernalia for a health and wellness check.

Speaker 1: Yeah. This guy's sitting around smoking weed. Dragon man. Going downtown.

Speaker 6: So like, I'm in there for like a whole night or whatever. And it is like colder than crap, the drunk tanks, nothing but concrete. The first time I've ever been in jail, you know, so first time experience kind of deal and I'm like, what?

Speaker 2: When he says the first time he's been there before.

Speaker 6: I've been there since. Yeah.

Speaker 6: But, uh, so there's this guy in there and he's just like, I know this is like your first time in here, whatever I can tell. He's like, if you ever go to use that, that toilet, he's like, you better flush that thing as soon as your, you know, stuff hits the, hits the water. He's like, you better flush that. He's like, you're going to have a lot of pissed off people in here. If you don't, I'm like, okay, what the heck?

You know, like, you're like the worst food and stuff like that. And then like the next morning when I'm finally going to go talk to the judge, you know, to see what happened or whatever, he was just like, man, you got to, he's like, he's like, I got a daughter. She lives in Denver.

She's got epilepsy. I understand. He's like, honestly, my guys aren't allowed to go behind locked doors. He's like, keep that crap behind the locked door and you're safe. God, okay. Judges, you're telling me that.

Speaker 1: Now, okay, on a wellness check, could you force someone to open a safe in their home, Lieutenant Green?

Speaker 2: No, you can't open a safe that's locked without a probable cause or search warrant. And anytime you'd have something like that in a home where it's not exigent circumstances, you'd always want to go get a warrant. Okay. All right.

Speaker 1: Hey, listeners.

Speaker 2: Not that we're not, not that we're not willing to set their witty on the couch until we get it.

Speaker 1: That safe smells like you got a dead skunk in it. Right on, man. We'll stay out of trouble and we appreciate the cart or call today. Yeah, we have a good one, guys. You too, man. Peace. Again, final call for traffic school questions powered by the advocates, injury attorneys, anything else to add for the community as we roll into the weekend?

Speaker 2: Hey, everybody, just be safe and joy. Don't drive distracted. Put your phones down. We're not off to a very good start on 100 deadliest days. And so please pay attention to what you're doing.

Speaker 1: Yeah. And keep the aggression on the roads to a minimum as well. I was driving around recently and a bunch of people kept flipping me off and honking at me and I'm like, what's, what's wrong with these people? Well, on our anniversary, Becca decided to put a sign on the back of my truck that said, honk and flip off my husband.

It's our one year anniversary and it was on there for a few days. So I would imagine people can't get in trouble for that since it wasn't any kind of real threat. Question on the threat front. What if somebody says on social media. If I see blank happen, there will be extreme violence. Is that assault or does it have to be a direct to a specific person kind of thing?

Speaker 2: They have to have the ability to carry out the threat they've made.

Speaker 1: OK, so if they're just a big mouth politician, then, you know, nobody's going to take that seriously.

Speaker 2: Well, we're talking about your friends. We know that's kind of his talk, right? That's kind of how his talk is. I was a different one. Oh, no way.

Speaker 1: Nobody believes. Well, I guess some do. But anyway, we got a couple people going. I guess we'll give them one last chance. Hey, Barry, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this? Hey, this is Mark. What up, dude?

Speaker 7: Um, guys, we were headed up to Swan Valley yesterday and the two lanes are going west and there's one lane coming. I'm sorry. Two lanes going east and one day coming west.

Speaker 1: So you're like at a passing lane or?

Speaker 7: Yeah, there's a passing lane. There are the two lanes going, like I say, east. And then there's one way going west. There's a solid yellow line on my side and a dash line on the other side. And we kind of freaked out when there was a car coming towards us in that center lane, but then looking at the at the road, I'm going, well, that was probably legal. Which one is true?

Speaker 1: Yeah, it sounds like they were in a passing lane. If you had the double yellow next to you and then the next

Speaker 2: lane over is a passing lane, they'd have the right of way in the double pass.

Speaker 7: Yeah. And then you actually, actually there was a double. We had two lanes that double the solid, the solid line was actually two lanes over. We were two open lanes there.

Speaker 1: Oh, so they pulled in over the double yellow.

Speaker 7: Yeah, but their side had a had the dash lines on it. So I did.

Speaker 1: Oh, well, yeah, I mean, if they, because you on your side could not cross the double yellow

Speaker 2: line, they're still responsible to yield on coming traffic in the other lane. If they two lanes are going the other direction.

Speaker 7: Cause I see that freaked me out because there are two lanes going my way. And I'm going to wait a minute. They shouldn't be there because I'm here. Yeah.

Speaker 2: If you're in that line, they need to yield to you.

Speaker 7: But if I'm in the far right one, do they still have the legal to be in the right away? The middle lane? Okay. That's what I thought. Cause their lane does have the double yellow. So that was kind of freaky though, cause somebody in my eastbound lane headed towards me was kind of freaky.

Speaker 1: So yeah. Well, glad you're being cautious out there, man. All right. Thanks. I appreciate you guys. Hey, have a good one today. All right. Thanks. Thanks. Peace. All right. That was a pretty good traffic school today. Yeah.

Speaker 2: We answered once our school question.

Speaker 1: Hey, very good. Very good. Get those questions ready for next week, everybody. What are the firework laws? And what, whatever, you know, remember safe and sane everybody. Absolutely. Um, you know, especially with as dry as everything is, you know, reading through some of the comments about we should move the fireworks here. Like, were we going to light the whole desert on fire?

What are you talking about? There are plants out there in trees. And we have no water to put them out. Exactly.

Yes. And no firefighter budget. So please, please make smart or smart decisions with your fireworks this year. It could cause some major problems. And nobody likes breathing in the smoky air.

Speaker 2: And who's financially responsible for a fire that gets out of control?

Speaker 1: I would imagine the person who lit the fire. Exactly. And that could probably be a pretty hefty fine.

Speaker 2: And that goes shooting Tannerite or anything you may be doing. If it starts a fire, you're responsible.

Speaker 1: Well, then why didn't they hold who will ever responsible that was blowing up Tannerite and Pocatello a few years ago up in the hills?

Speaker 2: I don't know, but they've done it a couple of times out on the desert. It's west of Rexburg and some college kids have. They'll probably work the rest of their life trying to pay off some fires.

Speaker 1: Yeah, you want that money to do fun stuff. All right, that college education to pay off. Exactly. You don't want to go to school for 10 years just because you did something dumb when you were a kid.

So be safe, everybody makes smart choices. And you have yourself a great weekend, Lieutenant. Great. You too, as well.
