00:00:00,100 --> 00:01:09,940 [Speaker 0]
[upbeat music] All righty. Not a bad start for a, uh, Tuesday, March twenty-fourth, twenty twenty-six. Uh, Midwinter kicking off the show, their latest track, Line Figures. Uh, that band, Midwinter, should have been on my list for bands that are underappreciated. There was a few people on that post on my Facebook page that were like, "How come you never really play these bands on the air?" I'm like, "We do." I just played some Via Nova yesterday. Look at my playlist for Peach's Picks of twenty twenty-six. There's a whole lot of bands, a whole lot of newer bands on that list. It's available on Spotify, just search Peach's Picks of twenty twenty-six. I just added that Midwinter song onto that playlist as well, keeping track of all the picks that I make for the year twenty twenty-six. Uh, if you wanna get ahold of me, of course, you can, over at two oh eight five three five one oh one five. Today was the first day in a few years, and by a few years, I think maybe five years, that I have purchased a concert ticket. Two concert tickets. 

00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:26,580 [Speaker 0]
I fell for the, uh, low ticket warning. You see, I have this list here of potential concerts that I'm really wanting to go to. If I can make it, I will. Coming up on April eighteenth is Bill Murray with the Kinda Hard Tour. 

00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:35,580 [Speaker 0]
Bill Murray with the Home Team and this other band that I'm completely forgetting the name of. I think it's Gang! G-A-N-G exclamation point. 

00:01:37,210 --> 00:02:06,720 [Speaker 0]
They're gonna be at The Union that Saturday, April eighteenth. And, well, I saw the post this morning that there was lo- there was a low ticket warning for that show, and I was thinking, "Hmm, do I risk my chance in trying to get, you know, the free tickets 'cause I work in radio?" One of the few perks you get in radio. Or do you think I should just purchase these tickets, and if for some reason I do get those, uh, free comp tickets later, I can just sell them to somebody, or sell them to one of my girlfriend's family members, or something like that, you know? 

00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:33,320 [Speaker 0]
They weren't all that expensive. It's at The Union, so it's, it's one giant standing room only venue. And Bill Murray is such a great band. I love those guys. I'm sure there are still a bunch of listeners going, "Is Peaches talking about that old actor that voiced Garfield in, uh, Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties?" No, I'm not talking about that Bill Murray and his many other roles. No. 

00:02:34,400 --> 00:03:47,410 [Speaker 0]
I'm talking about the band, the awesome band, Bill Murray. I might play them coming up here after the break just to, just to introduce, uh, some new people to them. They got a awesome saxophonist by the name of Gabby Rose. She has her own project too. She has her own project. She has her own band called En Rose or On Rose, something like that. Johnny Frank on vocals, of course, for Bill, for Bill Murray. I forgot the other two members already. I think their guitarist had to step down because he had allegations against him or something like that, but now they have a new guy, something along the lines of that. I don't know, but Bill Murray's new album, Kinda Hard, comes out here soon. I bought tickets for the show, Salt Lake City, The Union. You can find that show and many other shows like it on our concert calendar, always available to you at riverbendmediagroup.com/calendar. You can also find the shortcut to the concert calendar by just going to the KBARA one oh one app, clicking on Concert Calendar. Boom, right there. It takes you right to that link. Peach's Pit Party will return here in just a few on KBARA one oh one. Happy Tuesday. I can already see the, uh, non-radio-friendly listeners popping up for this question if I were to ask it for the Peach Throne later on in the afternoon. Uh, what is something you tried only once and will one thousand percent never do it again? 

00:03:48,420 --> 00:04:04,660 [Speaker 0]
For me, it's go on an alpine slide. I've talked about that story a bunch of times. I fell off the world's longest alpine slide like an idiot. I think I was, like, ten, eleven. Went down the, uh... I was going down the alpine slide. It's the world's longest alpine slide somewhere in New Hampshire. 

00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:13,070 [Speaker 0]
And there was one curve, and then it quickly goes to another curve, and my, uh, whole car, cart, whatever, whatever it's called, flipped over, 

00:04:14,100 --> 00:04:23,020 [Speaker 0]
and I started sliding on my stomach down the trail, which burnt m- uh, most of my skin off. My dad, who was in the trail next to mine, 

00:04:24,180 --> 00:04:32,920 [Speaker 0]
intentionally flipped his, uh, thing, his cart, whatever it's called, to then slide down himself, get himself up, and rescue me. 

00:04:34,140 --> 00:04:43,000 [Speaker 0]
So [chuckles] he hurts himself in the process, 'cause he's the best dad ever. Rescues his fat, too big to be eleven-year-old son. 

00:04:44,140 --> 00:05:16,820 [Speaker 0]
And yeah, we had to walk down the rest of the way. It was awful. We had to walk down, like, two miles to, to the, the nearest nurse station that this place had to then get covered in Band-Aids. We showed up back to the hotel room, 'cause we were on vacation at that point. My mom was devastated, bawling her eyes out, seeing us with, like, skin hanging off. You know, it was disgusting. What is something you tried only once and will one hun- one thousand percent never do again? I, I've seen many of these fails on Instagram. Tried to trim my own bangs. I looked like a medieval peasant child for three months. 

00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,960 [Speaker 0]
Don't do it. Let the barber do it, so that way if they mess up, you can get your money back, right? 

00:05:22,980 --> 00:06:08,630 [Speaker 0]
Or maybe they can, I don't know. I, I, personally, I don't know, 'cause I don't have any hair. I think they would-- If you, if you hate it so much, just shave your head. Why not? Go bald for a little while. Times Square on New Year's Eve. As a native New Yorker, I'm ashamed of myself for getting dragged into the, into that, my, in my thirties, no less. I've always dreamt of going to New York on New Year's Eve just to experience the ball drop, but then I realized, now that I'm an adult, almost 30, I'm like, "Hmm, that seems like a pain in my butt just to have to wait there all day, wear a diaper, you know, so that way I don't lose my spot." I'm waiting there hours upon hours, all for what? Just to see a countdown, and then a ball goes to the bottom, and boom, all of a sudden it's the new year. Yay. [laughs]

00:06:09,950 --> 00:06:22,760 [Speaker 0]
What is something you tried only once and will one thousand percent never do again? Friend's car had no more space, so I jammed myself inside the trunk. It's only a short drive, five minutes tops, but it's definitely not something I would ever do again. Well, 

00:06:23,910 --> 00:07:01,530 [Speaker 0]
luckily, when you're as big as me, you can't fit anywhere else in the car except for the driver's seat or the passenger seat, and sometimes that's even too small. So for the most part, if you have nice friends, they'll let me sit, or if I have nice friends, they'll, they'll let me sit in the front seat. I, I don't have to worry about being that person who's squished in the back seat between two people. It would never work. Let's play some, uh, Rob Zombie, I'm a rock and roller on Peach's Pit Party. This is horrible, what I'm reading here, about this, uh, claw machine over in China. This arcade in particular over in China, they have a claw machine where i-i-it's packed with live hamsters 

00:07:02,890 --> 00:07:14,270 [Speaker 0]
that players try to catch and then take home. I mean, does it drop into, like, an actual little, like, prize cube thing? Like, you know when you go to a claw machine, it drops the stuffed animal 

00:07:15,310 --> 00:07:24,330 [Speaker 0]
u-onto the thing, you open up the little hatch, and you grab whatever you won. You hardly ever win one of those things 'cause it's the weakest claw of all time, and it's intentionally made that way. 

00:07:25,910 --> 00:07:41,710 [Speaker 0]
But I can only imagine, like, you, you get a hold of a hamster, and then the claw drops the hamster a few feet. That would injure the hamster. No matter if you won the hamster or even if you just dropped it inside the machine, that would almost potentially kill the hamster. That's horrible. 

00:07:42,950 --> 00:08:00,730 [Speaker 0]
Photos shared online show the tiny pets just packed into the, uh, the corner of the claw machine, forced to live inside the noisy, brightly lit game while dodging the metal claw each time someone tried to win them. What do you mean packed into the corner? Were they all just huddled in the corner afraid to go towards the claw? 

00:08:01,870 --> 00:08:10,690 [Speaker 0]
Let me look at this here. Oh, yeah. Wait, there's like a few hamsters just huddled up in the corner facing the corner. Are they that sad or are they just asleep? Oh, they're asleep. 

00:08:11,790 --> 00:08:13,590 [Speaker 0]
Oh, that's sad. There's like a food wheel. 

00:08:15,270 --> 00:09:07,160 [Speaker 0]
I don't think it's like a, an actual, like, regular claw machine. I think they accommodated it to where it's gonna gently lower the hamster that you won down into the little compartment rather than just some horrible thing where you see the metal claw squeeze the crap out of the hamster. It's dead before it even hits the ground 'cause the claw machine just squeezed it. Let's stop talking about killing hamsters here even though w- last week I was just playing a game on my computer called Hamster Hunter. It's a weird, messed-up game. If you hate hamsters, play that game. You just kill them for fun. This is when I wish Maddie was in here, Maddie from across the hall. She's a part of the, uh, Gen Z crowd. Actually, when does Gen Z officially end? Gen Z years. Let's see, nineteen ninety-seven and twenty twelve. Okay, so I'm a year before Gen Z. I'm still considered a millennial, which is weird, right? 

00:09:08,170 --> 00:10:26,710 [Speaker 0]
I'm in that weird in-between era. We've talked about that many times before. But Maddie from down the hall, she was born in the year two thousand and six, and I guess the, uh, the Gen Z status symbol is a marathon finisher's medal because training for a marathon is now the ultimate Gen Z flex. It shows you have discipline, determination, and a real offline life, is what it says. There are so many things that you could do way better for yourself than run twenty-six point two miles. Twenty-six point two miles. The longest I've ever ran is just five. I can't imagine going twenty-one more than that. I've, I've attempted to do a ten-miler before. That was back when I was just living at home, and I was bored. I was working part-time at In-N-Out. Um, it was twenty twenty, so COVID was a thing. Hardly anybody was out there. I was work-- I was working remotely for TMZ. So I was like, "You know what? Let me attempt to do ten. Let me attempt to go from my parents' place to the Seal Beach Pier and back." Well, I got to the Seal Beach Pier, and by the time I got there I was exhausted, and I didn't wanna waste another hour walking back to my parents' place. So my parents were nice enough to come by and pick up my fat butt. Well, at the time I was skinny 'cause I was stupid enough to do r-runs like that. I can't imagine trying to train for a marathon now at this fat weight that I'm at. 

00:10:27,890 --> 00:10:43,610 [Speaker 0]
Gen Z is seventy-five percent more likely than Gen X to say a race or event is their ul- is their main motivation for exercise, and Fortune reported that Gen Z is forty percent more likely than Gen X to use fitness to meet people who share their interests. I mean, good. Good for you. 

00:10:44,710 --> 00:11:24,770 [Speaker 0]
Me, I'm never running a marathon in my life. I can guarantee you that. Your favorite bar is going to need to get some, uh, some new equipment to show every football game next, uh, season as NFL Sunday Ticket will no longer be available at commercial establishments through DirecTV. The satellite service had exclusive rights to Sunday Ticket until YouTube took over in twenty twenty-three. But the service DirecTV for Business, uh, continued to provide NFL Sunday Ticket for bars and restaurants. That business deal expired, and if a new deal isn't struck by the preseason, bars and restaurants will have to get special streaming hardware to show the games. Let's talk about some handball here for the Shot Clock Sports Update. Raise your hand if you knew handball was a big deal in Germany. 

00:11:26,010 --> 00:12:50,602 [Speaker 0]
It is, and there's been a, uh, scandal brewing over there as one of the most, uh, storied sports trophies in the country has been missing since November. Many people believed that the trophy, which is actually a large silver dish, um, had been melted down and sold for silver. Not so fast, though. The fourteen thousand dollar trophy was found stashed in a basement storage area. The team that currently holds the trophy, I'm not even gonna try to say that because it almost sounds like I'm saying the F word, something Berlin believes that suspects, uh, stole the trophy from its offices and then hid it to retrieve later but decided against doing so because of media attention around the theft. Hmm.A Netflix doc, documentary on the way there for that. Max Scherzer credits the piano for extending his career. The Toronto Blue Jays pitcher had seriously considered retirement because of pain in his right thumb. Scherzer had piano lessons as a kid, and last year decided to show off his, uh- to, to show his four-year-old children, his four young children, I'm sorry, not four-year-olds. Show his four young children how to play as there was one in the condo he had rented. He realized that after he played, his thumb felt better, so he started playing in the luxury hotels the team stayed in while on the road. Scherzer said, "When you're playing different keys and notes and chords, your hands are in a very unique positions. Or they're just overall in very unique positions. It makes you really work through your fingertips. By working those, uh, muscles in my hand, it got my fingers, uh, quote unquote, stronger." 

00:12:51,762 --> 00:13:58,172 [Speaker 0]
Good for you, Max Scherzer. Shohei Ohtani, uh, continues to set records on and off the field. The jersey he wore during Japan's thirteen to zero win over Chinese Tapai-- Taipei in the World Baseball Classic on March 6th, sold for one point five million dollars, the most ever paid for an Ot- Ohtani jersey at auction. During that game, uh, played at the Tokyo Dome, Ohtani hit a grand slam, had five RBIs. Back in twenty twenty-three, an Ohtani jersey from a game against Australia only sold, only sold for a hundred and twenty-six thousand one hundred dollars. That does it for your Shot Clock Sports Update right here on KBEAR one oh one. Five Finger Death Punch, Wash It All Away on KBEAR one oh one. It's Peaches Pit Party. Um, people are wrapping their smart car keys, not the smart car, like the smart car, tiny vehicle. No. They're wrapping their smart car keys in foil because these criminals are increasingly using radio devices to extend the signals of car keys and then unlock vehicles without their owners, uh, realizing. So there's that. I understand that completely. I remember back in the day, 

00:13:59,182 --> 00:14:49,162 [Speaker 0]
um, just a couple years ago, not necessarily back in the day, just a couple years ago, my parents saw something like this, and they freaked out, and so they had, um, each of us get a little metal tin container, aluminum container, and we would put our keys in that. And I, I remember my parents would get mad if I didn't have my keys in that container because then somebody can infiltrate the suburban neighborhood of Seal Beach, California, and take my sweet ride that was a two thousand and three Honda Element at the time. I make fun of that now, but someone did actually steal my catalytic converter at my ex-girlfriend's place living back in California. I, I, I still to this day am very mad about that 'cause I wanna find the guy who did it, just yell at him for getting me in trouble 'cause I spent the night at my ex-girlfriend's place. [laughs] And she, uh... 

00:14:50,222 --> 00:15:02,222 [Speaker 0]
Yeah. And everything was going fine un- until the catalytic converter was stolen. I tried leaving the next morning. [imitates car engine roaring] Almost sounded like Paul Walker was leaving the neighborhood, or Vin Diesel. "Family," you know, that kinda thing. 

00:15:03,242 --> 00:15:32,122 [Speaker 0]
Gotta be careful with the car keys, all right? Those, uh, radio thieves might be headed to your neighborhood. Here's some bad omens. Spectre on KBEAR. KBEAR one oh one, I always tell people to follow us on social media if you haven't done so already. KBEAR one oh one FM on all social media platforms, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, uh, even YouTube. That one's at KBEAR one oh one RMG. Uh, I do wanna point out though another radio station's, uh, awesome, awesome social media page. 

00:15:33,182 --> 00:15:37,042 [Speaker 0]
Ninety-six point nine, The Eagle, KKGL over in Boise, I believe. 

00:15:38,072 --> 00:16:36,532 [Speaker 0]
They have one of the best Facebook pages you can ever follow. Every single year during the month of June, they update, or right as, right as it hits June first, actually, they update their profile picture and their cover photo to be the, uh, pride flag. And a, a few people get severely, uh, butthurt by this whole thing, so then they start leaving hate comments, and then The Eagle goes, "Okay. Well, it now stays up from June to July." And they keep extending it depending on how many hate comments they get, and that, that's just one of the many things they do on that page. One of the other funny things that they do is they, they just post the, the most unhinged memes. I'm talking like, whoa, that's some dark humor stuff. [laughs] Like it's stuff that makes me laugh, but if I were to try to post that on the KBEAR page, oh, man, oh, man, would that be bad. Even though it clearly works for them because they have three hundred and sixty-one thousand Facebook followers. I'm sure they built that over time because they're just so out of the ordinary. I don't know how many people actually listen to that station, but 

00:16:37,542 --> 00:17:20,202 [Speaker 0]
again, I'm not-- I don't live in Boise. I just know they have a great Facebook, uh, Facebook digital footprint, as they say. So I, I... The reason why I brought them up too is also because they asked this question not that long ago, and I kinda wanna ask it for To Peach Throne, even though I already can guess what the popular answers are going to be. They said, "Suggestion box is open. How can we make this radio station better?" I can guarantee you we're gonna get, "Stop playing Sleep Token" from that loud hate group. You know? "Stop playing Sleep Token. They're not metal. Stop playing Poppy as well." We're gonna see that. We're gonna see, um, uh, "Go uncensored," which is not g- ever gonna happen 'cause the FCC exists. We're gonna see, 

00:17:21,782 --> 00:17:37,322 [Speaker 0]
uh, "Stop with the liberal politics," even though there is no liberal politics, especially on my show. I can't say for Victor's show, but my show, there's definitely no politics. I've been accused of being a liberal by, like, two people on Facebook [laughs] in the past. Like, come on. Knock it off with that nonsense. 

00:17:38,602 --> 00:17:42,362 [Speaker 0]
What else would there be? Oh, yeah, "Get rid of the commercials." That would be another thing. 

00:17:43,882 --> 00:19:15,136 [Speaker 0]
Hmm. I wonder if anybody will actually surprise me if I were to ask, "How can we make this radio station better?" during the four PM hour for To Peach Throne. Maybe I might. Make sure to join our KBEAR Facebook group for an update on that. KBEAR one oh one Idaho Rock and Metal. One of the biggest things that I fear w- a- as I get older, and I mean really fear, is getting a colonoscopy. Like, I know, I know it's something you have to do. Be responsible. Take care of yourself.All that adult stuff nobody warned you about when you were a kid, thinking adulthood meant eating pizza whenever you want. Like, sure, you can, but your health is going to be seriously affected by it. I was just talking with a listener in the lobby about this type of thing. Like, I'm hitting 30 this year, and I feel like I gotta really watch myself now. I, I need to watch my weight. I'm getting on top of that. You know, get my cholesterol down, get my [laughs] acid reflux under control. That's a serious issue nobody ever tells you about either. Acid reflux, boy, does that suck. But yeah, when it comes to colonoscopies, they've even lowered the recommended age to 45 now because, uh, colorectal cancer is showing up more in younger people, which is just, you know, awesome. Love that for us. Just what I needed. Another thing to worry about before I even hit 50, right? But the prep, the prep for a colonoscopy. Everyone always says, "Oh yeah, the procedure itself, totally fine. It feels a little bit uncomfortable." Cool. That's great. But then they follow it up with, "The, that prep, though." [laughs] Suddenly their eyes go dead like they've seen something they, they can never unsee, like they went to war and the war was in their own bathroom. 

00:19:16,366 --> 00:19:37,386 [Speaker 0]
And then I start thinking about the, uh, the doctors. Like, yeah, shout-out to doctors, espe- seriously. Like, doctors, they're heroes. But at the same time, how do they wake up in the morning, grab their coffee, maybe a bagel, and go, "All right. Time to go look at butts all day"? Like, that's your job. That's your career path. Guidance counselor never warned you about that one. 

00:19:38,686 --> 00:20:14,986 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] And you know, there had to be at least one, one patient, one situation, one experience that absolutely scared a doctor for life. Like, they went home, sat in silence, stared at the wall, and just whispered, "I should've been a dentist," or something like that. And don't even get me started on surgeons in general, too. Like, how are they cutting somebody up, doing all of that, stitching them back up? You know, one wrong mistake, that person's dead. They're responsible for that person not being alive anymore, so they have to be 100% perfect. They cut somebody up, and then they just casually go to lunch l- afterwards like, "Yeah, I'll take that t- that, uh, turkey sandwich." I couldn't do it. 

00:20:16,306 --> 00:20:59,786 [Speaker 0]
I'd be sitting there like, "You know what? I'm good. I'm gonna go fast for the rest of my life." So yeah, shout-out to doctors. We need you. We respect you. We appreciate you. Oh man, I'm not looking forward to that appointment in the future when I'm 45 years old, 15 years from now. 15 years only from now, geez. All right, let's, uh, let's move on before I consider, uh, [laughs] no, before I keep thinking about this. Tom Morello, Beartooth, Everything Burns, right here on K-Bear 101. Peach's Pit Party with Cage the Elephant on K-Bear 101. Let's talk about a first-world problem here that I'm currently experiencing. You know, my, my parents, they got me, they, they surprised me for my birthday last year, um, with a computer out of all things, a very expensive computer. Computers are terribly expensive. It was like $900, something like that. 

00:21:01,226 --> 00:21:17,506 [Speaker 0]
And, well, now I specifically game on my computer. I, uh, canceled my Xbox Live 'cause they were about to charge me, like, 105 bucks for the entire year. I mostly hang out on Discord and just hang out on my computer. I rarely ever touch my Xbox anymore. I still wanna keep it, 

00:21:18,726 --> 00:21:42,606 [Speaker 0]
but yeah, I'm not gonna go to it as my go-to gaming console, especially after what they did with Game Pass. Game Pass was relatively cheap. You would pay a certain amount of money per month, and you would get all these different games, not, not necessarily for free, but the, y- you could just download them, and you could play them, but as soon as they were off Game Pass, they would just disappear from your library, like you were just renting these games, which is kinda silly, right? 

00:21:43,746 --> 00:22:11,156 [Speaker 0]
Then they raised the price of Game Pass and made it, like, 30 bucks a month, and so many people canceled it. And I really, really hate when people are so tone-deaf when it comes to just how the fans feel, how p- how the, uh, consumers feel. Obviously, Microsoft is just messing up right now. The CEO of Xbox wants cheaper Game Pass, uh, sub and Netflix bundle deal. Could you imagine? 

00:22:12,526 --> 00:22:31,446 [Speaker 0]
She's saying that, "Hey, why not instead of just lowering the price of Game Pass, let's say, 'Hey, you could pay for Game Pass and Netflix.' But also it could potentially come with ads too." Nobody wants that. [laughs] Nobody wants that at all. I just don't understand it. 

00:22:32,906 --> 00:22:52,426 [Speaker 0]
You know, I just, I'm, my first-world problem was that I just had to cancel my Game Pass 'cause it was getting expensive, and now I have to game only on my computer. Oh, and also, I, uh, found that website that I've talked about on the show previously, canirunit.com or something like that. I saw Cyberpunk 2077 was on sale, so I wanted to play it. 

00:22:53,726 --> 00:23:08,366 [Speaker 0]
And well, I decided to see if my computer could even run it in the first place, and it says, "Hey, it's not recommended for your computer to do so." I need a better CPU that would set me back about, uh, 400 more dollars. Yay. Gotta love computer parts. Am I right? 

00:23:09,686 --> 00:23:53,866 [Speaker 0]
The Game Pass bundling up with Netflix with ads. Even just looking at this article makes me upset. Let's move on here. Let's play some Sleep Theory. It's Static on K-Bear 101. Honestly, I love March Madness because it gets people to watch basketball, and it gets people to, um, just talk about basketball, people that wouldn't, that, people that would never watch or talk about basketball ever even participate in, like, their in-office March Madness tournament. You know, they compete with their coworkers. Aubrey, my girlfriend, she's in a, she's in her in-office bracket. She's, like, in 20th place out of 40-something, 50-something people. I'm not exactly sure, but that's pretty high up there. It's not first, though. [laughs] I'm temporarily tied, 

00:23:54,946 --> 00:24:02,886 [Speaker 0]
tied for first place with Josh from Classy 97. We both have 64 points. We both have very similar brackets. 

00:24:03,995 --> 00:24:38,978 [Speaker 0]
It's, uh, gonna get down to the wire, I think, between us two. Victor is, like, [laughs] in dead last, which is funny because his bracket's not all that bad, but-He, uh, apparently chose the wrong school, so it, technically that makes it bad, duh. But he, he, he didn't have his, uh, winner that he predicted get eliminated in the first game of the tournament like Maddie from down the hall or, uh, Chantelle. She had Gonzaga winning the entire thing. They lost. They hurt my bracket big time. I had them going to the Final Four, I think. 

00:24:40,038 --> 00:25:19,537 [Speaker 0]
But yeah, the, the March, March Madness, it goes by... Like, the first part of March Madness, there's basketball game after basketball game after basketball game. Like, it's on for a good amount of time, and then it just stops for a little while, and then continues, uh, later on this week. I think Thursday, 5:10 PM is the first game to continue, a part of the, uh, Sweet 16. Texas, Purdue, the first game there. I'm seeing Iowa versus Nebraska, Arkansas versus Arizona, Illinois versus Houston, and then on Friday we got St. John's versus Duke, and then Alabama versus Michigan. I'm really hoping I can win this year. I wanna, I wanna have bragging rights. 

00:25:20,878 --> 00:25:52,418 [Speaker 0]
For what? I don't know, 'cause picking the perfect bracket is impossible, right? It's still... It, it technically can happen. It's not impossible, but you have, like, a one in 50 quintillion chance of getting a perfect bracket, and there are 0.0 perfect brackets left for this tournament. Good luck on yours if you're in one. Peach's Pit Party right here on K-Bear 101. So I just saw this article and had to double-check it wasn't satire. Uh, sharks in the Bahamas, they're testing positive for cocaine, caffeine, and painkillers. I'm not even joking. 

00:25:54,258 --> 00:26:04,778 [Speaker 0]
Scientists, they tested, like, 85 sharks, and nearly a third of them had drugs in their system: caffeine, ibuprofen, even cocaine in one case. 

00:26:05,958 --> 00:26:34,898 [Speaker 0]
So basically, the sharks are running on the same thing you are during, like, a double shift, you know? Coffee, painkillers, et cetera. But here's the wild part. It's not like the sharks are throwing ra- uh, ragers underwater. No, this is our fault. All this stuff is getting into the ocean through sewage runoff, and yeah, people just casually, um, going number one in the water after taking who knows what. So somewhere out there [laughs] there's a shark just freaking out. "Why do I feel so alert and also slightly aggressive?" 

00:26:35,978 --> 00:26:42,158 [Speaker 0]
And now I'm just picturing this. You're out there snorkeling, having the time of your life. You're in the Bahamas, and here comes a shark that's caffeinated, 

00:26:43,358 --> 00:26:48,698 [Speaker 0]
maybe just did a bump off of a drifting, a drifting duffel bag, you know? [laughs] Comes right after you. 

00:26:49,718 --> 00:27:03,958 [Speaker 0]
Absolutely not. All right, I got today's What the Headline, and this one comes out of Florida. Of course it does. [keyboard typing] A guy gets pulled over going, uh, over 100 miles an hour, and when the cops ask what he's doing, he says, "Well, 

00:27:05,738 --> 00:27:07,878 [Speaker 0]
I had to. There was an animal in the road." 

00:27:09,098 --> 00:27:27,438 [Speaker 0]
What kind of animal are we talking about here? Because at 100 miles, 101 miles an hour, that thing isn't crossing the, the road. It's, it's gonna get obliterated, right? If you run into that thing at that speed. They say the fastest land animal is a cheetah, right? Top speed around 60, maybe 70 if it's having a great day. You know, maybe it's in shape. 

00:27:28,878 --> 00:27:50,678 [Speaker 0]
So what was it, a cheetah in a Dodge Charger? W- was it chasing him? Was it drafting behind him like NASCAR? [laughs] And also, if there's an animal in the road, the move is usually to slow down, not hit Fast and Furious mode and hope for the best. I just love the, uh, the confidence though. The man looked at a triple-digit speeding ticket and said, "You know what'll get me out of this? 

00:27:51,978 --> 00:27:56,978 [Speaker 0]
Wildlife." Well, he got arrested, posted a $500 bond. Somehow, somewhere out there 

00:27:58,378 --> 00:28:19,758 [Speaker 0]
i- i- is an animal just absolutely shocked. No, Florida stays undefeated. That is today's What the Headline right here on K-Bear 101. So spring break obviously is already happening for a lot of, uh, high schools and colleges out there. I looked it up 'cause I, I forgot. It's been so long since I've been in school. You know, it's been a whole total of eight years. 

00:28:21,598 --> 00:28:33,898 [Speaker 0]
Um, spring break occurs one week in mid to late March, and we're approaching the end of the month, so I'm assuming spring break is wrapping up for a lot of people. Uh, the legendary spring break, uh, party beaches of Florida, 

00:28:34,998 --> 00:28:45,248 [Speaker 0]
you know, they're currently under a high-pressure police crackdown. Uh, cops are using paintball guns and pepper spray to control rowdy college students. There was that story not that long ago about 

00:28:46,278 --> 00:29:16,338 [Speaker 0]
gunshots heard at one particular spring break party, but it was actually, like, the crunching of water bottles or something like that. And then one person freaked out and ran, and then pretty soon it was just the domino effect afterwards. But during a recent clash, uh, at one of these, uh, parties, officers targeted this one specific beach party. The clash featured a law officer, uh, shouting at a group of, uh, party people shaking their butts, "No twerking," with an added warning, "You will be charged with disorderly conduct." 

00:29:17,618 --> 00:29:39,758 [Speaker 0]
To prevent the massive crowds from spiraling into the booze-fueled mess seen in previous years, police are strictly enforcing an 8:00 PM curfew and have banned coolers and alcohol from the beach. It just sounds awful down there. I think my friend Matt was texting me about this recently. He likes to go on these tangents every so often. I think he might have just sent me that on Facebook, 

00:29:40,878 --> 00:30:32,590 [Speaker 0]
where he was talking about how Florida used to be the spot, but since so many people have gone now to Florida and have started partying during the spring break time of the year, that Florida is just done with it, so they just cancel it all, ruin it for everybody. It always has to be those few people that ruin it for the majority. Let's play some Era. Uh, this, uh... There was, there was one particular listener telling me I should play more Era on the show. Well, here's, here's Black Cloud on Peach's Pit Party. K-Bear 101. You know, it's quite stupid to try to pick a fight with somebody who's, like-Twice your size. Um, Alan Ritchson, he played Thad Castle on Blue Mountain State. [upbeat music] He, uh, now plays Jack Reacher. He got even bigger for the role. Like, he's a huge dude. Seems rather nice, seems really funny. 

00:30:34,110 --> 00:31:08,020 [Speaker 0]
I, I would never wanna mess with that guy, even if he's an actor, still, he's just a buff, huge guy, right? [laughs] I wouldn't pick on him. I would just be like, "Hey man, what's up? Can I be your friend?" So that way if somebody does pick on me, Alan Ritchson just comes out of nowhere and defends me. Well, there was this video coming around, or popping up online, uh, yesterday. I talked about it very briefly on the show, um, that he was just caught beating up this, uh, this one guy. [laughs] I think it was his neighbor. Yeah, it was his neighbor. I guess the person started filming way late 

00:31:09,070 --> 00:31:17,030 [Speaker 0]
w- to where it looked like Alan Ritchson was just beating up a guy for no reason. Well, no, turns out this neighbor was starting a fight with him. 

00:31:18,450 --> 00:31:30,370 [Speaker 0]
Alan Ritchson did not in- instigate the fight with his neighbor, is what it says here from TMZ.com. He was pushed off his bike twice by the man before the video-recorded beatdown, uh, according to sources close to the actor. 

00:31:32,010 --> 00:31:44,480 [Speaker 0]
Why would you see a giant dude on a motorcycle and then just push him off a bike? There must have been some serious bad blood between these two. I wonder what's actually going on. Are we ever gonna get a, an actual clarification, like a non-biased point of view? [laughs] 

00:31:45,510 --> 00:31:54,170 [Speaker 0]
I mean, Alan Ritchson is just decking him in the head while he's down. I mean [laughs] it's funny. And Jack... And it... I almost said Jack Reacher. Alan Ritchson's huge compared to this guy. Again, 

00:31:55,190 --> 00:32:21,510 [Speaker 0]
like, don't mess with people. Oh, there's the neighbor's face. Geez, that's a giant welt on his forehead. Yikes. [upbeat music] Thanks for listening to Peaches Pit Party, the Podcast.
