The Noon Hour Of Madness & Mayhem can be heard live on KBEAR 101 weekdays at 12pm MST. Viktor and Peaches talk about a wide variety of topics depending on the day and you never know what to expect!
The noon hour of Madness and Mayhem, the podcast. It's the noon hour of Madness and Mayhem. We got packed house speeches. Yeah. We do.
Got lots of guests in here. We needed more voices. We do. You know, I keep trying to tell Jade to give us some budget, get us some more hosts. But I I guess we just need to walk down the hall and just drag people down and be like, hey.
It'll be fun. So go ahead and introduce yourselves to, the noon hour. Sure. So my name is Caitlin Hart. I work over at East Idaho News, which is literally, like, maybe 50 steps, across the across the hall down.
You have to buzz in a little bit a little door, and then there's we're just over there. So we're happy to come over whenever you need us, honestly. Well, it's it's been really fun, for anybody listening. East Idaho News was kind enough to stop by today, and they're doing a little feature on what it's like for me and Peaches to do our jobs every day. So, that'll be out at some point.
I'm sure we will share it, but we're we're very grateful that you wanted to see what a workday was like for us. It was so fun. And, I mean, you guys are being humble because you guys were nice enough to let us come in and barge in on your day and, like, film all the cool stuff in here and stuff. So, we'll make sure to send that over to you, after our awesome videographer Jordan is, working with him to put it together. So, this is probably one of the most exciting ones I've done so far.
I'm really excited about it. Well, I'm glad you've had fun. And who does the, the worst jobs? Like, do you guys have to do, like, nose goes when it comes to that? Well, what was cool about this one is that we, got reached out to by you guys.
And a lot of the time, we're, like, really struggling to find people to do this. So last time I did dog grooming, that one was really fun, very different. I was, like, sweating and looked disgusting in the video. I was watching my own dog. It was a whole thing.
It was really, really fun. We've done, like, truck driving. We've done, Nate Eaton just did he drove a semi for a day. I saw that one. I was preparing for the whole segment.
I was watching all of the videos last night, and, I saw Nate Eaton, like, almost hit cones, you know. Yep. Yep. Just a little bit. The the running joke around the newsroom is that he's the worst driver.
So if you're riding around town and you see the Easton in a news car and you see Nate, just make sure to be very careful around that. I mean, I I try to stay as far away from, you know, Nate as possible, you know, myself. I've I've known him many years. Those news guys, man, you think radio people are a little bit weird. Nah.
We know that the the real crazies are on your end of the building. Well, we've got two Nates, so it's double the crazy over there. Our managing editor, Nate Sunderland. He's he's where the he's where the real the real drama happens. Oh, yeah.
I love his, Facebook post where he'll go to a restaurant, review food, and he is very honest. I give him all of I give him all of my recommendations, and then he tears them to shreds. And then I need to follow him. I need to I need to see this guy's honest reviews because I like the type of thing. He he, he did one of my favorite restaurants.
I won't mention it, but go weeks ago. And he hated it. And I felt so bad. And we came into the newsroom, and I was like, no. You got the wrong stuff.
You got the wrong stuff. He's like, I'm not going back. We've done some food reviews on our TikTok before, and Victor just completely ragged on mister Beast's chocolate bar. Well, yeah. Because it was garbage.
It was terrible. The first chocolate bar, not the new one. There was an old one that was really bad. It was just healthy chocolate, and it was I tried the new one. I thought it was okay.
Yeah. I think it was great. The new one was better. The original one, trash. I didn't try the first one.
You know what we should have done? Do we still have that Japanese candy? We do. Oh, god. What yeah.
That that's kind of mean, but if you guys like candy So we we had this, former worker that was in Tyson's position. By the way, Tyson's also here. We didn't introduce Murphy. Yeah. I was gonna get in the corner.
I was gonna get to Tyson here, Jade's operation assistant. He's new to the company, and so we're trying to like, you know, when you said you were happy to be coming in, we try to drag people in here all the time. So it's like, Tyson, you're coming in today and, yeah. We we do some weird stuff with food sometimes. Yeah.
So our former operations assistant, Russell, he goes to ISU and he went to Japan, lived there for about five months. And I told him, like, could you please bring back some candy? And he's like, I'll see what I do. He shows up last week with a bag full of these different treats and so we tried them on the air. There was one that was awful.
It was like this shrimp cracker or shrimp cookie. Oh. And it tasted like a fishy just cracker. And then we tried these, kelp candies. And that's the one that really got Victor over here.
Yeah. Like, imagine licking the inside of a fish tank. Like like kelp, like seaweed? Yeah. It's just kelp juice from SpongeBob.
It's just eating grass clippings type of thing. But to me, it tasted, like, way, like, fishy, like dirty fish tank. Ew. It was it was so bad. So we'll give you some.
Okay. You can bring them down and, let, Nate Sunderland do a food review on one of those for his Facebook. Too. And Nate Eaton. Yep.
We have a meeting today, so I'm gonna make everybody try it. Oh, yeah. And I'm gonna film it. I'm I'm gonna send it over to you guys. It's gonna be great.
Just presents from K Bear to the East Idaho newsroom. I will make sure to give them to them. We've we've done a ton of awful foods. Like, we did oh, I mean, luckily, I wasn't here for this, but he did service drumming. And I don't know if you've ever heard of that.
Oh, I have heard of it. Is it is it a vegetable or fruit? It's pickled fish in a in a tin can. Oh, Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. I was thinking Fermented fish. Okay. In a tin can. Yeah.
It smelled so bad. And we opened it outside underwater, you know, to actually crack the can. And, I mean, when we threw it away and you know where the dumpsters are. Mhmm. I mean, you you could smell that that can at our front door on this side of the building.
And they're clear over on our side. And it's Dumpsters are. Yeah. It smelled like the black tank of a, camper that hasn't been cleaned properly. Oh, no.
And we ate it too. There's videos online of of different people trying it and I think you just told me about how there was three dudes and one of those inflatable hamster balls. They opened up the can, in the inside and they all threw up on the inside inside of the hamster ball. They're rolling around in there in the, surstromming and, vomit. Oh, no.
And that and then you guys had to open it underwater. Like, they went full full immersive in that one. Yeah. We tried to be as cautious with this with it as we could, but there's no preparation for that smell. Well, our news director, Nate, not to air out his dirty laundry, but he hates seafood, like, with a passion.
He's gonna love the kelp candy. So I'm really excited. We should've saved the shrimp cookie for him. We should've. Oh, that shrimp cookie was so bad.
I think Jade took those home to go antagonize his family with. How did he? I think. There might be one or two left. I'll have to check because the bag's around here somewhere, isn't it?
You moved? There was a bag full of stuff. Yeah. And I don't know where it went. He ate all the good ones.
I I mostly ate all the good ones. He had, like, this there's this chocolate orange gummy candy. He ate the whole bag because he's like, I can't eat this I can't have the taste of kelp in my mouth any longer. What was the best one you had? Probably Probably those little the little worm looking things, the gummies that you ate the whole bag.
Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Gummy worms? They look like sour punch punch straws.
They tasted like green apple. There was also ice cream. They were really good. Yeah. Yeah.
Okay. So you've also tried, like, old MREs. Right? Yeah. That was awful.
We did that the other day, actually, because somebody found some somewhere. They were from, like, the nineties. And Wow. Those ones weren't too bad. The bad MREs are the ones that are supposed to be, like, lasagna or something like and it's just a packet of mush that Are those, like, the army rations or are those ones that, like, astronauts take that are, like, all powder?
Yeah. The army rations. Okay. You know, they're supposed to be good till the end of time. Well, it I mean, I've the guys who brought them to us said they were never good.
You know? But I only just found out how to read the, the codes on them. So the ones we did back in the day that were really disgusting, I mean, they could have been from the seventies for all I know. I don't well, it's not a good idea. Victor's tried the surstromming.
We've eaten the, what was it, the, crickets before. Oh, tons of crickets. Have you ever eaten crickets? No. But in high school, they made us eat mealworms for extra credit.
Okay. Were they, like, freeze dried type things, or were they chewy? They were, like, chewy. Oh. Yeah.
That was the worst part. If they were freeze dried, I feel like I coulda got over it. Yeah. But I'm 25 now, and I'm still a little bit traumatized about it. Yeah.
If they were chewy, that sounds bad. Because we've had those and, you know, they were just crunchy. Once you get past looking at them, it's like, it's a cracker. Were they flavored or just raw crickets? They were supposedly flavored like, bacon and nacho cheese or something.
And they they just tasted like nothing. Just like croutons, basically. Yeah. They're just crunchy. I put them on spam.
They're fine. One of my favorite things about East Idaho News, though, is we get to do all these different things. Our videographer, Jordan, went over to Sully's lunch. Sully's Gastropub? Gastropub.
Yeah. And he tried their burger challenge where it's a nine pound burger, three pound burger patty, six pounds of bread, and toppings. Oh, wow. And what did you what did you think about doing that, Jordan? That was quite the experience.
I yeah. So, me and another reporter, Kalama Hines, we did it, and I think they give you, like, an hour. But, yeah, man. It it was a really good burger, but it was too much of a good thing. Was the exit really bad too?
You know what? Honestly, it wasn't that bad. I it's funny. I, like, didn't really eat that day. Went did that, and, I had weighed myself the day before.
Out of curiosity, weighed myself the next day. I had lost, like, an ounce just because I Wow. Ate as much as I could and then didn't eat for the, like, the next, like, day and a half. But it was delicious, but it was painful to eat. Like, by the end of it, like, any bite I was taking, I was just like, I'm went through.
And, yeah, you have to eat the fries as well. So at one point, I was like, oh, I know what to do. I've seen this on YouTube. I open the top of the bun, and I just throw all the fries on there, trying to eat as much as I could, but Didn't make it through, No. Didn't make it through.
Gotta bring in a Beard Meets Food to Sully's. That that'd be cool to see. There. I think he was there. Really?
I think so. Somebody big was there. I think it's by Adam Rich man from Man versus Phil. No. That Khasoli's is new.
Adam Rich man, I don't think, eats like that anymore. Oh. I don't think. I'll have to look into that. Interesting.
Yeah. You can get on the, Wall of Shame or the Wall of Fame. So here's a photo of me and Clemmer Hines on the Wall of Shame. Well, I I I know I would fail. Back in the day, I did mow down the main big Judd, you know, and that was, like, the only challenge around.
But, yeah. It it's the bread, I think, that would get you. Yeah. I I think it's the bread. And I started with water.
And then I was like, hey, can I get some Sprite? Once you start, like, burping, that's making some room. That helped the most. But I think I could do the Big Judd. I don't know if I will, but I think I could.
You should give it a whirl, man. Are you gonna try to participate in the Nathan's Famous hot dog eating contest on the July 4? Oh. Try to be Joey Chestnut. Man, I how long has he had that record?
It's been years? I think ten years? Because he did 78. I think that was like the Guinness World Record. Then last year when he did the whole Netflix thing, he was like it was 83 in ten minutes.
Yeah. I don't think I can compete with that. I'm just down to Joey Chestnut. That's a lot of Glizzies. That's a lot of Glizzies.
There's a lot of Glizzies. Yeah. That's good for the July 4, man. Nothing better than a Glizzie. America.
On the fourth. Right there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Well, hang on, everybody. We'll be back in a minute with more stuff. Don't go anywhere. It's the noon hour of madness of AMP. Just put that bright light on him.
We're putting him in the spotlight. Interrogation time. Where's the button? Gonna be in your face too. I guess it doesn't matter since, the listeners can't see us blast Tyson with light.
You gotta turn it all the way up too. Not too bad. Yeah. Interrogation time like your color? Like your lieutenant crane.
There we go. Yeah. Tyson. Interrogation Room. You are under fire on the noon hour of madness mayhem right now.
Tyson is Jade's new operations assistant. How's it been putting up with him every day? I'm definitely Jade's lackey. He has me doing the craziest things. Jade, if you're listening to this, what's up?
It's okay. You know, give it a little bit of time. You'll be talking as much smack about him as we do. Have you seen the old pictures of him in the studio? Like, there's a bunch back there.
There's one on the wall over there. Jade And you can also look up Jade on Google and yeah. He was very emo. Very emo back in the day. That's awesome.
I love that. I'm sure you've heard of his, you know, because you're part of the local music scene. Mhmm. How old are you again, Tyson? I'm 29, so I think or will be 29 shortly, so very close to Peach's age.
Yeah. Because he's about I think you're November 29? Exactly. I'm August 29, so he's two months younger than me. So three months younger than me.
How long have you been, making music here in the local scene? Because I've I've known about you for a long time. Yeah. So I started to go started going to shows at the Elk's Lodge in Pocatello when I was 14. So Okay.
So years ago? So you probably may have seen my band play at the Elk's Lodge. Definitely. Alright. Neck Brace, those old classic shows.
Yep. And, are are you and Nate currently making some new music for Graveway? What's up with Graveway? Graveway is essentially on a hiatus, unfortunately. Aw.
I would love to be doing more with that, but everyone is so busy and so spread out. So hopefully we can do maybe something this year. Right on. This right here is the picture of Jade we were talking about. That's One of the many.
Amazing. This is the one you posted for his birthday back in 2020. I post I try to post it every year for his birthday because it's a classic. And there's also the one with him, the guitar around his neck. He definitely would not text you back in that era.
Right? Yeah. My band and his band had quite the feud back in the day. Like a a real one or a fake one? Well, the to the fans, it was real.
We we didn't really I mean, there was times when it got a little nasty, like, you know, his band was Death in December, if you remember that name. And my band, Doctor Seuss is Dead, did write kind of a mean song about them. Sorry. I'd be I turned my mic off. In the OG days.
Yeah. It but it made it fun. You know, the local scene was very engaged. You know, I'd go on their their website and talk crap in their forum and screw people up. This was like even pre Myspace.
Oh. But, Myspace is where yeah. The most of the smack talk happened was on Myspace, but then years later, I'm in Jade's studio in front of a giant death in December backdrop doing a song with Jade. So excellent. Yeah.
We always got along pretty well. But okay. So Graveway is on hiatus, but you are jamming, at least I'm aware of, with Godbone. Right? Absolutely.
Godbone has been crushing it lately and I have a ton of fun playing guitar with those guys. Dude, all great dudes, their drummer, Dan. I mean, I've been friends with him since I was, like, 15. He's an old roommate. Great dude.
Shout out to Dan Ditto and, oh, you know, the the rest of the guys in the band, Sam and stuff. I mean, just god bone if anybody listening hasn't seen him live. You gotta go check him out and I'm bummed because the last show I went to, you were there but for some I don't remember what was going on but you didn't oh, weren't you injured or something and couldn't play? You are correct. I sliced the whole tip of my index finger off with a mandolin cutter.
So, yeah, be safe with those. Otherwise, you can't play guitar. Yeah. I was bummed. When's your guys, next show?
You know, I can't think of it quite off the top of my head, but I can check the next time we jump on. It's maybe this light. Here, I'll turn this light off. This is Oh, yeah. Yeah.
You didn't really need to leave that on, Peaches. Sorry. We're really grilling him. Alright. I guess I could go to, Godbone on Facebook.
You should give him a follow. There you go. Got so let's see. The Chop Shop? No.
That that show already happened. That says May 10, so I don't know. Anyway, are you involved with any other music projects right now? There is one more that's still a little under wraps, so hopefully soon. Okay.
Cool. It's me and him. We're starting a band. Peaches has been begging to start a band where he can scream and yell for a long time. So Are you serious?
I don't know what his what his skill level's like, but I need to learn that. That would be awesome. I think Katie from g one zero three said she wanted to learn screaming. So there's a local band that recently asked me to, appear on a song. That's sweet.
It's been a long time. I think the last one I did was with Jade and then Neck Brace's final song, I did dual vocals with, Nick on, Killings as Easy as Breathing. So What a great title. Yeah. I need to go listen to that.
That that sounds awesome. The lyrics are yep. I mean, me and Nick used to write some pretty, you know, cannibal corpse esque style lyrics, so it's not necessarily family friendly. It never aired on four locals only. That's for sure.
Yeah. I forget. Did Graveway stuff ever get on four locals or Yeah. That's a two. Yeah.
There's stuff still on Jank Show, I think. Yeah. We still play it on Jank Show Saturday nights. There was another local band. Anti Logic.
Well, yeah. And I've got Anti Logic on there. My old band. I think we've still even got Riff Ranger in the system. So Oh, so Anti Logic's done now too?
Yes. Yes. Those guys went on to form a band called Botched Periel, and it's really freaking good. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. I've heard about those guys. They're great. So I was wondering because I I we have anti logic that pops up. I'm like, I have no idea what happened to these dudes, and then no one said anything.
So yeah. Yeah. I guess fear of your curious come to me, and I'll try to remember. But yeah. Tyson's been sending me songs for years.
I remember the first time he sent me music. I was just blown away at the, the quality of it. Oh, well, thanks. You know, the musicianship but also the the audio quality, which is something I've had to explain to local bands before. There's, you know, like when I put Graveway on Jank Show, some other local metal band, I'll leave them my name, but they hit me up and they're like, why can't we be on Jank Show?
And I'm like, well, you gotta listen to for one, Graveway fits that particular show because you guys, you know, are crushingly heavy. Oh, yeah. Some metal bands are more suitable for, you know, just like regular KhabAir and if your production levels aren't up to par with everything else, you know, I I'm not I can't put it in the mix just to be nice, you know? Yeah. And everyone in Graveway, you know, everyone's super nice and easygoing, but we all take, like, music very seriously and just love what we do and put our hearts into it.
So Yeah. Yeah. No. I was very excited when the, project was announced because, you know, I've known Nick since I was a kid. We were in immense decay together, and I there is no more beastly front man in, I'd say, Idaho than Nick Poppleton.
You wanna see a guy just own the stage, and he looks like the scariest guy ever. He does. Like It's like Idaho's version of Alex Terrible. Yeah. But he is just the sweetest teddy bear, like nicest guy ever.
Yeah. Nick Popp is an amazing human and also a very scary one. Yeah. I mean, back in the day because now now he's like, you know, kinda fit real you know, he's slim and in shape. When he was that big scary neck brace singer man, even though I knew he was super nice, still, you watch him I watched him stomp through a stage one time and I just break the stage.
He's crazy, man. Yeah. Well, I'm very excited to hear new music from you, Tyson, and you mentioned Botched Burial. I think at that last show I saw you at, those guys told me they were gonna send me music. Have you gotten any emails about Botched Burial music, Peaches?
Nothing. Yeah. Get on their case. Yeah, Donnie. Donnie, what what the heck, man?
I would say the most active guy is Keith in Rexburg with Lincoln on the bear and all that. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Always always send it himself. Also, Shaina with Fall From the Abyss.
Mhmm. Yeah. Yeah. Local bands. I am Hyde.
We have a local music show. Send us music because we like to play it, and I know there are people putting out, new music right now. The local scene right now seems to be the most hop, and I've seen it in a long time. Yeah. It's had a big resurgence, I would say, post 2020, and it's pretty good right now.
There's a lot more young people coming out, which is amazing to see. A lot more young moshers and just kids trying to make really nasty music, and I love it. Oh, yeah, dude. Some of these younger kid bands, they it it just is so nostalgic because it reminds me of back in the day when, you know, we first started doing BoSoga way back in the day. Unfortunately, I know, PeeCannon is no longer a band.
I think we could say PeeCannon. Okay. You said it. I saw it. Yeah.
I I bought one of their shirts and everything. Those kids, I I saw their first show and, I was I was pumped. You know, they're I think one of the guys had, like, an acid bath shirt or sticker or something on stuff. I'm like, okay. These guys gotta be cool.
They they were a lot of fun. I'm excited to see what they do next for sure. Me too. They bring a lot of energy and life into the Southeast Idaho music scene, for sure. So if anybody, you know, is looking to get into bands and things like that, you know, K Bear, we got a lot of people involved with the local music scene around here.
I'd be happy to try and help you out. Post in our group, the K Bear one zero one Idaho rock and metal group. I know a lot of the local band guys are in there. And, you know, never be afraid to ask a guy if they'd be interested in jamming. Like, all the bands around here, not not all, but lots of them share people.
You know? So, I mean, like, Joey, I don't know how many bands he's in, and he's one of my best friends. I can't keep track. You know? He's in, like, a million of them.
So, yeah, reach out to people. You never know if you'll, find this is what I did. I found the most talented guys I could and was like, will you guys jam with me? And then they make me sound great. Yeah?
Yeah. Yeah. That's exactly what I did. This is the noon hour of Madness and Mayhem, and we've got Jade's personal assist no. It's it's the operations assistant.
I thought you were gonna say something, like, really bad word for a second. Tyson's hanging out with us here. Hello. Now, Tyson, are you East Idaho born and raised? That is correct.
I pretty much grew up in Pocatello. Me too, man. Shout out to Pokey. Mhmm. Yeah.
My twenty fifth high school reunion is this weekend, and I've just been kinda debating going. I'm like, is there a point? You should. Just to see who's, you know, died, who's gotten fat, who's both. But see, I have gotten fat and bald.
So I'm the guy I would be looking for. I heard my way to the cardiologist this morning, and I am not happy about that. I I yeah. The last time I went to a doctor and stepped on the scale, it was the most I've ever made. I was like, maybe maybe it's the clothes, but it can add too much.
Victor, did you go to Pocatello High School? I did. As a matter of fact, did you? Did you like it? Compared to my junior high, Alameda, absolutely.
Going to Pokey High, getting in with, you know, the kids from Irving, they they were a much cooler crowd than those snooty kids from up on the hill What what that ended up at Highland. What high school is it that's, like, super far away? I laugh at it every time. It's, like, in the middle of nowhere. Century.
Century High School. Yeah. Every time I go to a show in Salt Lake City, I'm like, what would it what would it have been like to go to high school there and just see nothing? You might be seeing Marsh Valley, which is like Oh, yeah. Out past Oh, yeah.
Out past McCammon. That one's way out there. That's where Dan Ditto went to, high school, and I think Joey did too. I always try to figure out what life would be like outside of what I went through, you know, growing up here or something like that. It'd be weird.
Yeah. You probably have to, or end up, you know, doing worse things to try to have fun. Yeah. There's not a lot of fun there. Drugs.
That's right. No. Peaches. Not that. That's what you have to do in Pocatello.
You gotta start a band. You gotta start a band. That's totally right. And then do drugs. Right, Victor?
No, peaches. That's not what you should do because then you end up talking about, you know, who's dead from the, high school reunion. Who did those hardcore drugs? Who didn't survive? Yeah.
I've been sadly, you've seen many a, friend that is, no longer here. Maybe that's why you're so caught up with TV shows because you had nothing else better to do. Well, I'm smart now. I just stay home. Yeah.
I mean, last weekend, I tried to go out on the town, me and Ben. Oh, you told me about this story. And we went out, you know, we went to, one one place, then we left. And immediately, there's, like, fights breaking out in the streets and people trying to fight us. Yeah.
It's it's so funny, Tyson. Because I went home. I tried getting Victor to come out to this, like, little get together. It was like a pre Father's Day get together. I'm, like, the only, you know, single guy there.
There's not even a dad whatsoever. And I'm like, Victor, come on out. And then he was like, no. I'm just gonna hang out and Yeah. I'm gonna hang out in my house.
We ended up, like, using face we FaceTimed him, and, Victor ended up just insulting me the whole time on FaceTime. Yeah. I I was like, alright. It it's enough of being out on the town. So, you know, growing up around here, Tyson, I was looking at this list of, the best small towns in The USA.
And, you know, they they put Ketchum for Idaho, but I know you're an outdoorsman. You get out and do tons of fishing and stuff. You've got your fishing videos and things. Mhmm. You were out on a trip last week.
Yep. You know, if people are rolling into the area or maybe like Peach is newer to the area, if you had to pick, like, smaller town areas or places to go, Idaho landmarks, what what do you think are the best places in Idaho? That's a great question. There are some great small towns. I guess if you really like fishing, I would check out Grace.
Oh. Yeah. Yeah. Grace is pretty cool. I know my friends, when they're coming up, they're they're wanting to do the, the weird loop where we go to Twin Falls and we kinda do, like, a football shape where we go the the longer way back Yeah.
And go see Pickles Place and it was Atomic City. They go through Arco. That whole thing. Atomic City. Yeah.
They wanted they they wanna see that big sign. I was gonna take them to that certain march here in, you know, in the area. Okay. I wanna take them there. I wanna take them to the the weird spots, the 17 mile cave.
Yes. Dump them in there. Yeah. I mean, if you guys are heading out that way, you know, City Of Rocks, Rocks, if you wanna make a detour, that's Amazing. That's one of my favorite places in Idaho.
We're kayaking that blue water over in Twin Falls. That's, like, our whole thing. Yeah. Like, aren't you going like Hagerman? Or Yeah.
We have a place in Hagerman. It's like the Thousand Springs or something like that that we're staying at. Yep. It's nice out there, man. It's really nice.
Because I hate Twin Falls and I hate the Magic Valley, but I did get an Airbnb out near Hagerman one time. I'm like, oh, wow. There's there is stuff out here that's not horrible. So Yeah. I I also don't like Twin Falls, but I do like Thousand, Springs.
Just be cautious of ticks. What what's with Twin Falls? Like, I feel like everyone here hates it and then everyone back at home is like you one of my my friend's parents was like, yeah. We're thinking about moving to Twin Falls, Idaho. That's so bizarre.
They haven't been there. Out of Oakland. That's why. Yeah. Exactly.
You have you have to visit where you have to see where you're gonna move to before you move. I don't know how Twin Falls is convincing people that it's and no offense because I know we probably have people streaming from Twin. That's right. The Rock radio DJ sucks. I'm scared.
No. Rock Rock is a great dude. Brock's great. But I lived in Burley for a little bit, and it's all, you know, just kinda connected. You know, you Twin Falls is the big city in the area, and you have Burley and Rupert.
Oh, Burley looks awful. Burley is awful. I despise Burley. I had a lot of bad experiences there. I worked there for, like, a decade, but I didn't live there.
I would drive from Pocatello to do my job because I could not live in that town. Yeah. I guess you got Albion, which is cool. Albion's great. Halloween.
Oh, yeah. With the, the haunted, mansions of Albion, the old college. Albion, is a really cool town. Yep. You know, if you're hitting city rocks, you can, take a route that'll take you, to Albion, and it's a really nice mountain town.
Okay. I saw and the first time I met Andy Andrist, he was doing a comedy show in a yurt in Albion. Wow. And so I drove up there, and, it it was fun. We we made a good lifelong friendship.
But, trying to think of other good Idaho landmarks. I mean, I was thinking if you wanted to take your guys somewhere scenic, you know, like Stanley, that area with the, sawtooths. You know, the sawtooths are just wild. We barely have time because, like, they'll get here pretty late July 2 and then July 3. We're kinda just spending the time around here.
Yeah. And, of course, the July 4, I'm working that whole day. Tyson, get ready for the July 4. Yeah. Your very first one.
Your first one. Your first one. Maddie's first one. Oh, yeah. We got a lot of new people that haven't had to endure.
I think the new front desk girl will start before that. Yeah. She'll she'll be thrown right into it. Yeah. And it's looking like it's gonna be hot.
Thank you, everybody. You're no longer the newest guy. You got the the front desk girl starting on, like, the twenty sixth or something. Alright. Alright.
Yeah. Riverfest is looking to be pretty crazy. I remember seeing, traffic specifically being insane when Riverfest happens. So Yeah. I believe after the fireworks, I will be running the audio for the traffic copter from East Idaho News.
A traffic helicopter? That's right. You know what that means? Dropping sound bits of, Arthur Morgan just randomly when Nate was talking? Well, I I tried to talk to Jade about this.
I'm like, can I liven it up a bit and talk back and forth with Nate? Like, you know, I know it's gonna be on Classy, but come on. I'll keep it clean. You know? I mean You're professional.
Yeah. Yeah. I am I I've been on Classy many a time. That would be entertaining for sure. Just have you and Nate go back and forth.
You you and Nate talk about the whole last podcast to the left, guys. I I hope that, Caitlin tells Nate that, last podcast on the left loves East Idaho News and wants to meet Nate. They wanted they they're like, you've gotta bring Nate to the show. And I I know Nate. I don't know if that's gonna be his kind of show.
But, yeah. Yeah. Fourth of July, it's gonna be here quick, everybody. Make sure to bring lots of water, lots of sunscreen. Don't bring any pets.
Don't bring any fireworks because there's plenty with the Melaleuca Freedom Celebration, the biggest fireworks show West Of The Mississippi. And I know we've talked a lot this hour, so I don't know. We might be back with more? We'll see. The noon hour of Madness and Mayhem is a production of Riverbend Media Group.
