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 powered by Jalisco's, the podcast. Paul and Victor, I found a band called Lorna Shore 2. Lorna Shore 2? Go ahead and look them up on your phone. Do you have Spotify installed on your phone?
I mean, the, dreadful s word. I do. Sadly, I do. Look up Lorna Shore 2 and look at one of the song titles. We can't say it on the air.
Just just read it. 2. How could somebody call themselves that? Oh, wow. Yeah.
Okay. I'm waiting for, that certain individual to clap back against them. Yeah. I would imagine that'll happen probably any second because that individual just can't help himself. He can't do anything but just fight people online.
Oh, he's been going nuts. He's been driving me crazy. No. I'm burn on it. I I because, like, I I do like his antics, and I do think fighting against weirdos on the Internet's fun, but it's going to it's just too much now.
Yeah. Now he just appears like a total tool. Right. And, very unlikable, the things I'm seeing him do. And, you know, it's a guy I've talked about before that, you know, he claims it's an online persona and blah blah blah, but I think he may have actually gone off the deep end, and he's gonna drive away so many of his fans.
Oh, speaking of driving away fans, Danny from the Octane fan club. I was looking at the question. It just popped up on my Facebook feed here. Am I the only one who's sick of hearing a work of art by Ice 9 kills? And then someone replied back, I'm sick of hearing Jose ramble about getting murdered in horror movies and everything else for 5 minutes before playing it.
Wouldn't you also brag about you would brag about it a ton Probably. If you got killed in an Ice Nine Kills music video. I mean They have merch that's that has Jose's face on it. Yeah. I don't know.
I mean, because sometimes we'll do repeat content on the station because Sure. When you've done it for 10 years, it's like, alright. I know I've told this story before, but some people aren't you know, will not have heard it before. The hardcore listeners gotta realize the average person doesn't listen for big, long stretches. So Very true.
You know, there may be octane listeners who were unaware that Jose was in that music video even if he said it countless times. How many times have we said download the K Bear app? You know? Millions. Millions of times.
And I still talk to people that don't realize we have a free app available in your iPhone and, Android stores. Just search for Kay Bear 101. We have free apps for all of our stations. So Our shows are on demand like this one. Yeah.
Yeah. You can check out the noon noon hour of madness and mayhem. Everywhere podcasts can be found along with Peach's Pit Party, the Victor Wilt Show, artist interrogations. We got a lot of different content. But, you know, some of our listeners listen hardcore all day and some, you know, during their 10 minute drive to work.
And I feel bad for the hardcore listeners because they have to overhear everything. Yeah. Everything over and over and over again. Yep. Just like hell.
We're the best. Nobody is better than us? I can't believe we drew that drove that one woman away because we kept saying we're the best. Or that's a weird that's a weird reason why you hate a radio station. Yeah.
I I because I thought we do it in a pretty joking way. Right. I mean, it's true, but we still try to do it in a fun way. Well, according to this one guy that he on the, you know that Craig dude that keeps posting about the radio stations on, like, Idaho Falls? Shout out to Craig for promoting our IPO stations.
Thank you, Craig. But, no, there was this one dude that's like, man, the Neil and Julie from that talk show, they have a they have a huge audience. I love that. They don't have a huge audience. What are you talking about?
They do not have a huge audience. Nobody outside of their little echo chamber even knows who they are. Aside from our listeners when I point out that, he tried to take on Neil deGrasse Tyson and got a, literary stomp down, and it was the most amazing thing I ever saw. And he reminded me of something else I wanna talk about on the next break, Peaches. The noon hour of madness and mayhem powered by Jalisco's.
I am Peaches. I'm Victor Wilt. Yesterday on the show, Peaches, we talked a little bit about, you know, the old slogan for Howie and Piper show. Wake up. Rock hard.
Rock hard. Those are great slogan. So, you know, I ultimately was able to determine by talking to people that that Piper told me I came up with that. Piper came up with that. So Shout out Piper?
Yeah. Shout out to Piper Finney. She's doing good in, South Carolina? North Carolina? One of them Carolinas.
Yeah. One of them. I should know. I thought it was North Carolina. I think it's North.
The last time she came here to see us and all that, she was a yoga instructor and talked about her place in North Carolina because I think she was affected she was affected by the, hurricane? Yeah. Yeah. And I so Asheville's North Carolina. I I think you're right.
Peach is She's close to mister Beast? Close to mister Beast. How good of friends are they? You know, if she's close to them. Alright.
Anyway, so yesterday, did we talk about the post about the z 103 morning show? That was posted around, like, 2 or 3 in the afternoon. I think it was around 1:30. So it was after the noon hour yesterday. K.
This is this is a great opportunity to talk about perception and things like that. Every once in a while, someone will tell you and me, you know, I miss the old k Bear. And we're like I miss the old Kanye. Well, most people do. I don't think anybody's happy with the new Kanye.
None at all. So somebody posted about the z 103 morning show asking if it was local, and, it's sort of local. It's out of Boise, Joey and Lauren. And there's a lot of comments in there about, Brad and Tara. You know, rest in peace to Tara, former former employee here.
Never never got the chance to meet her, unfortunately. You know, we we got along great. As, you know, Brad Barlow, one of the best people in radio Super nice guy. One of the one of the very best. Brad Barlow, you know, made the decision at one point to retire from radio.
You know, he was the morning host on Z with Tara, and he decided he was gonna retire from radio. So we did a big going away party, and he was out of radio for many, many years. You know, it was his his own decision. You know, I'm I'm done. And then, you know, at the time, he decided he wanted to get back in, Zee's doing its own thing.
So, you know, he had an opportunity to pop in and do a part time thing somewhere else. I I believe it's part time. So there's all these comments trashing Joey and Lauren and talking about how great Brad and Tara were. Now Brad and Tara were they they did a great show for sure. It was, one of the most popular in East Idaho.
But what people don't realize because everyone's like, you know, that show was the best, blah blah blah. And, you know, Joey and Lauren blah blah blah blah blah. And these are all people like my age. Joey and Lauren is not you know, the the the these folks chiming in about their show are not the target demographic for a show like Joey and Lauren, same as Brad and Tara back in the day. Now when you think back to stuff from when you were a young kid or teenager, you look back on it with nostalgia, and it was, you know, a very big important part of your lives.
If Brad and Tara were to jump on air today doing their exact same show that they did back then, people our age would not connect with it the same because it's a show dealing with, you know, z 103 is all about the current hot new music. They're gonna be talking Olivia Rodrigo and Billie Eilish and all of that stuff and whatever's popular in current pop culture. You know, a 40 year old because I saw a local podcast host chime in about this, and I'm like, dude, you're my age. There is no way that a top 40 radio show is going to be up your alley at our age, especially, like, knowing these guys do a pretty vile podcast, I think that just like people who, you know, oh, I miss Piper or whatever, those were different times. You know?
And, the shows were completely different. The z one zero three CHR top 40 format, it's it's not a middle aged person's format as far as the the on air hosts go. You know? Tune in and listen to Katie Lee. And that's another thing I, you know, was glad people were pointing out that like you in the comments.
We have in studio, real live hosts every day. Real real people in here sitting here. Luckily, that Elliott guy was more so talking about the country as a whole. He he didn't really mean just here in the area. Yeah.
And so I I got what he meant because I am also sick and tired of the syndicated the same syndicated shows everywhere else. Yeah. You know? But I think as Idahoans, we should be supportive and proud of Joey and Lauren for having a syndicated show. Idaho doesn't have very many syndicated shows.
They're nice people. You know? It's not my kind of content. I'm not gonna, like, sit down and listen to it because it it's not made for me. It's made for a completely different audience than Victor Wilt, the rock and metal guy.
You know? So to I I it just made me mad to see people trashing on him. Like, oh, anybody can put their show on if you wanna pay him. It's like, well, yeah, that's syndication. You know?
Lou Brutus. You can book a band instead of venue if you pay them. Yeah. Like, Lou Brutus is a syndicated radio host. Yeah.
You know? Rush Limbaugh was a syndicated radio host. Howard Stern. Like He he probably had the most shows everywhere at one point. Yeah.
Like, why is that an insult? It's not an insult at all. I wish we could get syndicated. That'd be awesome. That'd be fantastic to be on more stations than 1.
We'd make more money. Yeah. That would be great. So it it's just another example of the constant negativity that you see online. And, you know, when I Again, not to interrupt you here.
Sorry about that. But I'm thinking, like, what radio show would those people do if they were to stand behind the microphone? Or because they they would stumble. They wouldn't know what to say. We've tried DJ for a day many times.
How many of those people were, like, the exact same results as the first round of auditions on American Idol? Like, William Hung. Yeah, dude. Totally. It's not as easy as you'd think.
And, you know, like, the I like the guys that do the podcast that chimed in. I haven't heard it. I'll tell you to take a listen. But their show, you couldn't do that on radio. No.
Of course not. You couldn't. But I feel like they were they're also proudly saying, we don't wanna be on radio. We're too vulgar. Maybe.
But, also, even if they could do that kind of show on radio, it wouldn't be on a station like z 103 because that audience would not want to hear Wouldn't be on hearing you. Like that. Yeah. There's certain you know, you have to appeal to the audience that goes with that station, and z 103 is a station directed toward much younger people that are into modern pop culture, and the times have changed. You know, the way young people think is very different than people my age.
Look at the arguments you and me get in about a variety of things. You know, a decade can make a huge difference. So if you're talking a 20 year difference between, a certain type of person, those people are not gonna be alike whatsoever. So I don't know. When I saw this particular podcast chime in, it and, you know, some of the people who are laughing at the comments, I know that one particular, you know, personality was on their show recently.
Oh. And I could imagine that person, based on what I know about them, having some bad things to say that probably weren't true because that person is a liar. Alright? That person is a liar, and, you know, we might need to play Fozzie Judas. You know?
I know you're a a bit of a a a backstabber. So I mean, Papa Roach, Leave A Light On is is it lined up next? Really? Should we change that up? Well, yeah, we're probably gonna have to change that up and play Fazzy Judas, I'm thinking, or something like that.
Alright. Or How about that dope song? Maybe I'll have to tell the author if you want. I can't say the title at all. We have a song about betrayal.
We got Pay the price for your betrayal. Yeah. There you go. I'm like I don't know. Some people are just bitter.
You know, they bring a bunch of problems on themselves, and they can't take responsibility for their own actions that, you know, led to their own issues. So they point the blame at other people, and they just stay bitter. And it's it's unfortunate because and I'm just making assumptions here. But I know I know you're 100% not a liar or Jade. For that matter.
I never lie. You know? I am 6 foot 3 and, very fit. And I Tons of hair on the head. I'm a former professional football player, everybody, so I would never lie.
You played left bench. That Number was half. Victor, you brought up a great point last break about Kay Bear. People saying, I miss the old Kay Bear. I really wanna know what exactly do they miss.
Do they miss some sort of obscure artist that we used to play that we don't anymore? I mean, I've talked to one listener who still listens to this day, but he says he misses the old Kay Bear, but that's because we've supposedly played more Iron Maiden and more Megadeth, more stuff like that. Well, probably, that was 20 years ago. Exactly. 25 years ago.
Right. Yeah. You had me looking at the, radio charts for the modern rocks slash alternative Facebook group. Yeah. And I was looking at some of the biggest songs from back then.
I mean, it was still Chevelle and rise I mean, from 25 years ago, the year 2000. Yeah. Yeah. It's not that much different, but there certainly would have been more eighties tracks because it was the late nineties. And that you know, stuff like Megadeth, that was too heavy for classic rock radio at the time, so we were kind of the go to.
And we still play Megadeth and Iron Maiden Definitely. Which most active rock stations like us, they they don't tend to go back that far, or they might play like ACDC and Guns N' Roses, some, like, real massive hit songs back in black. You know? Sweet child of mine. Welcome to the jungle.
But, yeah, it would be, interesting to know what exactly they miss because I could understand missing, like, Howie and Piper. You know? May maybe the personality. Yeah. Personalities.
I could see that. Peaches. I miss the old afternoon personality. Peaches is too mean to me. Yeah.
You know, because people are gonna get attached to different personalities. You know, there's people who like you way better than me, people who like me better than you. What There's people who There's ton there's tons more people liking you more than me. I I I don't know, man. I came in with the handicap.
Oh, he's from California. I don't care about him. He's awful. But, yeah, there's, you know, certainly people who miss Howie. I I always liked listening to Howie on air.
There's people who miss Jade on air. I mean, I remember the old guys from back in the day. Dusty. We had our own Dusty. Yeah.
Who was the there was a guy that's saying that he missed these 2 DJs I've never even heard of on that one post on Facebook that we were just talking about from Craig. Pull it up and let me see. I need I need to find that post. I'm glad the post hasn't been deleted unlike another post that was about me. Yeah.
You know? I wonder who deleted it. But, any note, shout out to that person because they gave me a nice tip for Finding Lucy. I don't know if you saw that on one of your posts. Yeah.
But then I also saw that, you know, I gained about 25 followers thanks to that guy's post. So Yeah. I appreciate it. Yeah. I haven't I don't think I've been gaining followers lately.
I think I'm about maxed out. Keep inviting them to like my page. I need to do that. I really need to do that. Or you can you can keep plugging your page on, the social medias for Kay Bear.
They add Victor Wilt everywhere. That's right. I'm easy to find. Slash Victor Wilt on every single platform. You know, that's funny because there's that one same guy that keeps going, people still listen to the radio?
I know. And I'm like, I think I'm funny. And I comment. I'm like, didn't I just tell you to listen to radio? Right.
Oh, I miss Dale and Jess. Man, they were the best DJs. The those were the good old days. Okay. They were on, the Hawk back in the day when I first started.
Okay. Dale, I'm not sure where he's at now. Just Dale still lives in Idaho Falls according to his Facebook profile. Now Jess is I don't think Dale lives in Idaho Falls. KSSN program director Yes.
On air personality at Iheart. So I'm assuming she must be very good at her job as she's Yeah. Making her way up the ranks. Yeah. And she's super nice.
Dale and Jess were both great. After Dale moved, I'm not sure to where, but he took a position in a bigger market. Jess did the show with Don for a long time. But, yeah, great people. Definitely worked with them.
But I thought Dale was, was in a bigger market doing something. They they really think he's back here? I'm not sure. Let me, let me just update the for the best for a lot of these personalities. You know?
Yeah. But bad. Even the ones I give grief, you know, I I get along with them fine. Yeah. He he went on air by brother Dale.
That was his That's right. You told me about that. Yeah. Gotcha. I can't remember his last name.
I know he's on my Facebook friends. I I just had that comment pulled up. Hold on. I'm scrolling back up. Dale's last name is, should I say it?
Yeah. Desmond. That is his last name. Alright. Bro at brother Dale.
Let's see here. What? Is he doing oh, he's doing a throwback video. He's like, he's not a Kewpie, is he? Like, what what is this?
Be the biggest downgrade in radio. Alright. Well, he was recently at Montage Music Hall, which, we're we're just like a Facebook stocking paper here. Rochester, New York. So I'm have the entire address too.
Yeah. Here's where Dale lives. Here's his phone number. I'm not sure. Maybe he's not in radio.
I he doesn't seem to post a lot about, radio on his Facebook, so I don't know. But, yeah, you know, people when I think back, it's like when we were working on music for the throwback stations around here, legends on the hawk, z 103 throwback, and even alt 101. You know, I always thought, like, the nineties was, like, the best for music because that's when I grew up. And I I think back, and it's like the nineties were so great. No.
There was tons of terrible music during those times. Once you really dig in and start digging deep, you know, the it I think we're in the best time for music ever. I really do. I mean, nineties country, you're gonna be dealing with Garth Brooks the entire time, and that was, like, you know, the jelly roll, the Florida Georgia line of that time. Right?
Yeah. Like, everyone in country music holds the nineties in the highest regard as if it was the best era of country. I'm this might make our country music fans mad, but I think nineties country music is awful. Come on. Schneider Twain's your favorite.
Dude, and, like, yes, Alan Jackson and Well, he's a legend, isn't he? Yeah. He's a legend. Doesn't mean that, Chad or hoochie doesn't mean that's a good song. You know?
I like him. I think he's a cool dude. He's fine. Again, I'm not trying to trash legends, but even, like, the if you listen to the nineties George Strait stuff, it's horrible. That's another legendary name horrible.
Legendary name on all the country. Listen to seventies eighties country than nineties. Would I wanna listen to country? No. Definitely not.
And there's better country music coming out right now than I have ever heard. You know, you take a look at Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers, Zach Bryan, Coulter Wall. I you know, there there are so many great modern country artists, Cody Jinx, that are way better than any nineties country. And now there's country artists putting out songs that sound like nineties country, like, Zach Top. And I I just the tone of it, it's kinda like and I'm not just gonna bash country.
Nineties pop music, awful. It's awful. Nineties rock 2, awful. A lot of it. A lot I like the nineties metal stuff.
You know? Back in the nineties, you know, Korn I I Korn was too weak for me. I was one of those elitist metal heads when I was in my late teens. But Korn, it's Slipknot. That's not metal.
That was me. And now I accept that, yeah, ACDC is metal. So Oh, yeah. There you go. Well, I was I was looking at the the comments here because I was seeing if there was anything new on that thread that Craig posted.
Yeah. Somebody said, I suggest the Armstrong and Getty Show from KSTE and Iheart, 7 AM to 11 AM our time. I'm like, what the heck is that? It's a talk radio station that Iheart has. I believe it's AM because it says 6:50.
Yeah. That'd be AM. And news, politics, pop culture, plus the experiences of everyday life. That's what's on the menu every weekday in the Armstrong and Getty show. Is it just typical right wing talk?
No. I think it's more so it's probably that mixed in with like, hey. My wife, you know, she made this meatloaf last night. It's pretty good. I'll have to bring it in.
That type of thing. Okay. Alright. Yeah. I've never heard of that show, but, you know, it's gotta be better than Neil and Julie.
Right. It's the same old stuff of, like, oh, my kids or my kids are acting up. What should I do? Call in now type of show from what it seems like here after reading the bios. It's gotta be rough to do a show like Neil and Julie because you just spread this angry stuff all day, and you're so dissatisfied with the world.
And, you know, it's just an angry show with lots of hate going on. I I don't know how people do it. You know? You you would just beat yourself down every day. It's I'm gonna encase myself in a giant black cloud every day at work.
I I just couldn't do it. I mean, it's an easy job because all you have to do is spout off about, you know, controversial things. I'm sure they're just talking about everything that people are fighting about on the comments on East Idaho News, and it would be just exhausting. Oh, so no. No.
I just went on to chat GPT and said, give me some fake hot takes for me to say on the air to make listeners mad. Oh, okay. What you got? Ranch dressing's overrated. Woah.
Peach's ranch is good. Howdy. Number 2, the Beatles are just fine. Woah. Oh, I I thought you were gonna trash the Beatles.
No. I I feel like there's some people out there that do trash The Beatles for the most part. Yeah. They just like to trash the big names. That's why I don't take any comments seriously, and they're like, ACDC sucks.
Okay. Pick up the guitar and make your make better music then. Yeah. Dude, like, I I don't ever throw on an ACDC album in my spare time, but I'd never say they suck. Like, they're they're legends, and they have some songs I like.
I'm just not big into big into them. Just like most of the bands we play on K Bear are not really huge into them. Country music isn't real music. That's what it says in chat JPT. You should go post that in the 105, the hot group.
Oh, yeah. So I guess they attacked more. I don't like that peaches rants. He he says you have to add stuff to coffee to make it taste good. That's why I don't like him.
Yeah. Yeah. What what a what a weakling. Come on. Who puts stuff in their coffee?
