00:00:10,180 --> 00:02:01,660 [Speaker 0]
Yo! Happy Monday, people. What up? It's the Victor Wilt Shell Fun Week ahead here. I mentioned this on Friday, right at the end of the show. Teamed up with the advocates for an awesome Christmas giveaway. Merry Axemas! We've had our hands on this guitar for quite a while, waiting for a good opportunity to give it away. Probably the coolest guitar that we have on hand. Signed by a number of bands, I'm sure you're familiar with and like. Bad Omens, Halestorm, Fallout Boy, Sleep Theory and Never Tell. If you wanna win this guitar from K-Bear and the Advocates, got a couple different ways to get in to win. Fire up any of the K-Bear apps, the associated apps. K-Bear, Alt 101, Cannonball 101. You can sign up once in each of those. But then we're also doing a sounder. If you hear us play the, uh, Merry Axemas sounder, which it's pretty obvious. It'll sound kind of Christmassy, ripping guitar solo, a little ho-ho-ho in there, and it says call now. If you hear that, be caller number 20, and we'll get you an extra entry into the drawing. And with that on air sign up with the sounder, y- you can try that as many times as you want to up your odds, but only enter once per app if you're going to enter through the apps. So, yeah. Gonna be pretty sweet. We'll draw a winner for that next Friday, so you got plenty of time to get entries in. And I'm telling you, this guitar is sweet. It'll look amazing on your wall. I wish I could have it. Oh, well. Gotta hook you guys up for Christmas. So, thank you again to the Advocates Injury Attorneys for teaming up with us on that one. 

00:02:01,740 --> 00:02:38,100 [Speaker 0]
And hopefully where we've had a couple days off, lots of crazy stuff went down over the weekend that we can talk about on this show, so. I'm gonna start digging. Hope your morning's going good. And if you need to reach me, I'm here, doing it live, unfortunately. Uh, slept like complete garbage last night for no apparent reason. Just waking up over and over and over and over again. Ugh. Hope that wasn't the case for you, but gonna do my best to make the show awesome. So, we will talk to you in a few. 

00:02:38,100 --> 00:02:51,040 [Speaker 0]
Ah, man. I just noticed that my computer settings are not correct. Annoying. Oh, well, I'll fix it in a few. Hm. I- it's nothing that affects your- your listening, so don't worry about that.

00:02:52,240 --> 00:03:28,940 [Speaker 0]
 Ugh. Just something that annoys me [laughs]. Okay. What was I looking at here? Dirty secrets of industries that implies the general public has no clue about but everyone in your field knows. That seemed like it was worded strange. But basically, dirty job secrets. Might learn something new here. Uh, this person says that they work in a call center in the software administration department. And that when, you know, you hear, "This call is being recorded. Blah blah blah blah blah blah," 

00:03:28,940 --> 00:04:10,840 [Speaker 0]
they mean even when you're on hold, so if you're dealing with customer service [laughs] and they put you on hold and then you start talking a bunch of crap about them, uh, they probably hear you. So, always be nice to customer service. All right? You can, you can get a lot more done if you're patient and friendly, even if you're like enraged. There have been certain companies I've had to deal with over the years. Some of them I'd have to call like every month 'cause my billing was all screwed up. And I mean it took a lot of patience to be patient dealing with this particular company. But, uh, I was always able to get my things fixed. 

00:04:10,900 --> 00:04:45,400 [Speaker 0]
Thankfully haven't had to call 'em in a while. Ugh. All right, let's see. This person says, "I work for a big box retailer. We have bins at the front for people to recycle their plastic shopping bags. Each morning they're taken to the back of the store and emptied into the garbage compactor." [laughs] Well, get rid of the bins. You know? Uh, a few different people on here were talking about, uh, the amount of food thrown away at the grocery store being just crazy. You know, for all kinds of different reasons. Yeah, maybe, uh, 

00:04:45,400 --> 00:05:06,540 [Speaker 0]
you know, say if a box is damaged or something but the contents are just fine, just mark it down a bit. You know? Grocery prices are bad enough as it is. Anything we can do to keep the cost down, uh, throwing tons of food away, I would imagine, does drive up cost quite a bit. 

00:05:06,540 --> 00:05:44,500 [Speaker 0]
Uh, this one should be obvious. They say, "In construction, the world is built by the lowest bidder," which could be bad [laughs]. You know? Uh, what else do we have here? More call center stuff. "We're experiencing higher than usual volume of calls and your call may take longer than expected." They say, "Well, we have a normal volume of calls, we just had to lay off a ton of staff." But okay, if you, um, laid off a bunch of staff, then your call volume per call center worker would be higher, so I- I mean, you know. 

00:05:44,500 --> 00:06:07,700 [Speaker 0]
We'll just move on from that one. Let's see. Medical billing. "The number of mistakes is mind-blowing and the average American just does not understand how the billing systems work, let alone what an EOB is, so most end up just paying what their statement says even when the EOB says they owe less." Yeah, you know, I get those OBs in the mail and I- I always glance at 'em and throw 'em away. Maybe I should take a better look at those [laughs].

00:06:09,084 --> 00:07:05,484 [Speaker 0]
[rock music] 'Cause yeah, uh, when I'm paying bills, I just sit there mad, watching my money disappear. Oh, speaking of which, I need to, uh, need to make my house payment. Crap. Should still be fine. I hope. [laughs] Oh, no. Why did I have to see the word "billing"? Let's see. Everyone's wearing a wig in film and TV. Wrinkles and imperfections are taken out using, using visual effects. Your favorite actor is five feet tall with a big head and thinning hair in real life. Eh, that's not too surprising. As long as you can, uh, as long as you can do that. Skilled acting job. Let's see here. I don't know, this thread's getting kinda boring. How about we just roll into some more music and then, uh, I'll see what else I can find to talk about. Sound good? Okay. [rock music] You know, I've heard that song a million times, 

00:07:05,484 --> 00:07:51,904 [Speaker 0]
and I don't remember that ending part. [laughs] Children of the grave. I, I don't know, maybe it's so quiet I just never paid attention. But yeah, you learn something new every day, right? Well, hopefully. Okay. These Metallica fans learned something new: Don't climb the speakers. You're gonna get, uh, permanently banned from arenas. This was over in Australia. Uh, two fans hit with lifetime bans from Optus Stadium, climbing a speaker tower. This was like a, a 50-meter speaker tower. I don't know if you've ever been to a Metallica show. They, they got pretty big sound systems, you know, since they're playing inside of stadiums. Um, 

00:07:51,904 --> 00:10:44,024 [Speaker 0]
yeah, managed to, uh, hang out up there for about, uh, 20 minutes. I guess they didn't even stop the show, but, uh, security and venue staff freaking out, and, uh, they said, "It's an incredibly stupid thing to do, and a good way to ruin your night out," noting what seemed funny at the time had escalated into a serious safety issue. "Just stupid behavior," said defense lawyer Rachel Gemmell. Um, yeah, they, they learned a lesson. Gonna have to pay some pretty hefty fines and court costs, and then, yeah, next time Metallica comes around, you ain't gonna be able to watch 'em. And that would suck, e- ... 'Cause I would imagine this is the big venue where these guys live. Like, say you got permanently banned from the Mountain America Center. You know, we finally have a big arena where we can see awesome bands play. A permanent ban. You know, it's one thing to be like Peaches and get permanently banned from the Seether subreddit. Like, okay, oh no, what am I gonna do? But permanently banned from the biggest venue in your area? You don't want that to happen to you. Just don't break the rules, mkay? You never know if they're gonna security have a bad night and be like, "That's it. You're permanently axed." 'Cause I'm sure we're gonna start hearing some show announcements soon for 2026 for right here in East Idaho. At least I hope so. I mean, there have been a bunch of awesome shows announced for Salt Lake City and such, but we need some shows announced for here. Come on. All right. It's a little after, uh, seven o'clock. Hopefully the day goes by quickly. I'm pretty excited. I got my kids coming to visit. I haven't seen my daughter Madison for many months. Had my daughter Taryn unexpectedly show up on Saturday. That was really fun. But, um, or was that Friday? I think it was Friday. I don't know. This weekend was a blur. It just went by so quickly. Hate that, but I guess time flies when you're having a good time. Isn't that what they say? Hmm. Hopefully the week flies, 'cause I'm ready for another weekend already, and it's seven o'clock on a Monday. Typical though. [rock music] Feeling frazzled on a Monday. What's up? It's Victor Wilt. [laughs] Could be worse though. Could be that guy who swallowed that Fabergé egg. You remember that from last week? Guy stole it from a jewelry store in New Zealand and swallowed it, [laughs] to try to get away with it. And then they had some cop just watch him for days and days and days. Well, eventually the Fabergé egg 

00:10:44,024 --> 00:11:02,044 [Speaker 0]
came out the, the natural way. Gross. But they were happy to report after six days, [laughs] they, they have retrieved the Fabergé egg. Um, I'm looking at a picture of it. Um, 

00:11:02,044 --> 00:11:25,504 [Speaker 0]
I can't imagine that was pleasant. [laughs] And, oh, the poor person who has to clean it. [laughs] Does it still maintain its value of about $19,400 after it's been, uh, tainted? Uh. You know, I'm sure it's pretty rare at a jewelry shop that you have to clean an item 

00:11:25,504 --> 00:11:56,904 [Speaker 0]
that's gone through that kind of process. But hey, you, you, you're probably making pretty good dough if you're running a jewelry shop, so ... And every once in a while you gotta do a little bit of dir- dirty work, right? Everybody does. [laughs] Ugh. So yep, six days. That ... If you're ever curious how long it would take to, uh, [laughs] swallow and then naturally pass a Fabergé egg, uh, apparently six days is the answer. So ... [laughs] 

00:11:56,904 --> 00:12:01,984 [Speaker 0]
Ugh. I guess it's better than them having to, like, chop into your stomach or something. 

00:12:01,984 --> 00:12:50,719 [Speaker 0]
Ugh. Gross and unpleasant. Typical content for the Victor Wilt Show. [rock music] Well, when parking, you should probably keep an eye out for animal nests. You don't often hear about bird attacks, but-[rock music] It happens, all right? It happens. Sometimes birds get angry. And the bigger the bird, the bigger the damage. This woman in Dallas, who actually regularly feeds ducks, [laughs] well, I guess she parked really close to a, uh, goose nest, and boy did these geese beat the crap out of her. I- I feel bad for this lady. She's 72 years old, often hangs out at City Lake Park feeding the birds, and [laughs] well, 

00:12:50,719 --> 00:12:57,040 [Speaker 0]
either the geese really wanted that food or, yeah, she was too close to their babies. But, uh, 

00:12:57,040 --> 00:15:08,599 [Speaker 0]
just multiple geese pinned her down on the ground and just about... just beat the crap out of her. Um, and she has, uh, several breaks on one side of her pelvis. I- I don't know if that's from falling down or the birds, but they're, you know, saying she's got a long road of physical therapy ahead. And [laughs] you know, the- whoever this guy is, uh, mayb- maybe this is the- her son, said, "You know, it's a shock. Geese can even become territorial like this and could hurt somebody." Hey, you ever been down by the river, the Idaho Falls River certain times of year? Geese all over the place. Eh, that's why I don't go near birds. You just never know. And it's not the first time that there have been geese attacks in the news. [laughs] And geese are big, all right? They're big. Ugh, getting attacked by a feathered dinosaur would be awful. Yet another example, animals fed up with people. Had it with our crap. Even if you've got little breadcrumbs, [laughs] they ain't taking it nicely. Give me that snack! Oh, how awful would it be to just get the crap beat out of you by a goose? See, you know, your Monday morning could be worse. All right? We'll get to some more freaky news here in just a few. Hang on. [rock music] We'll start off in Florida where I'm guessing a fan of Back to the Future was arrested. Kinda looks like Doc Brown, but, you know, he's got brown hair and a beard. But this guy, he gets pulled over, arrested on multiple charges, including a hoax weapon of mass destruction and false report of a bomb or explosive. Um, he was also packing some drugs with him and things like that, but the, uh, officers after they pulled him over [laughs] heard him acknowledge that he had a dirty bomb in his truck. So they find this yellow plastic container with radioactive symbols on it. I mean, it looks like the container of plutonium that Doc Brown has in the first, you know 

00:15:08,660 --> 00:15:57,959 [Speaker 0]
d- uh, Back to the Future movie. I almost said episode. I don't know what I'm talking about. But anyway, it was secured with, uh, chains and locks. Uh, [laughs] it- it does straight up look like a- a- a movie prop, but I guess when they opened it up, you- you know, it was just a box. [laughs] No- no big deal, but when you tell the cops you have a bomb, uh, they're not gonna like that. So, just something to keep in mind, you know, if you're cosplaying Back to the Future. Don't pack a bunch of drugs with you as well as, uh, firearms, night vision goggles, and yeah, the- the fake dirty bomb. Th- They're not gonna like that. Also, don't take the law into your own hands. Uh, there was a guy who was outside a Lowe's in Georgia 

00:15:57,959 --> 00:16:55,939 [Speaker 0]
and he thought he saw someone who had stolen something from inside the store, so he just started firing off rounds from him, or from his pistol at him. [laughs] It's about 3:00 PM, you know, just middle of the afternoon. I- I don't think you need to shoot shoplifters. Uh, if- even if the guy had shoplifted, which he hadn't, um, it seems a little bit excessive. All right? Just call the cops. L- Let them do their jobs, okay? I mean, he could've killed this guy. [laughs] And then when he got arrested for this, his family, or at least his wife, she's trying to get them to give a- give him a reward. She's like, "Hey, he was just trying to help." You know, he- he- he honestly thought he did nothing wrong, so he should be rewarded for his actions. Um, 

00:16:55,939 --> 00:17:38,480 [Speaker 0]
I- I think it's gonna be a reverse reward. I think he's gonna be paying out a little bit 'cause y- you can't just shoot at people for no reason. [laughs] Geez. That's- That's not even a Florida man. That's a Georgia man. All right, what else do we have here? Oh, in Japan, you know how we've talked a lot about how bears are attacking people? Um, apparently they've developed bear-proof automatic doors. Yeah, they- they can sense if it's a bear and not a person so that these bears will stop entering businesses and, uh, attacking people. There's gotta be something they could do with these- these bears in Japan. I mean, um, I'm not gonna get gruesome here, but 

00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:54,480 [Speaker 0]
if- if this is such a major problem you're having to introduce new technology at homes and businesses... You know, they're- they're selling these bear-proof containers that people can put in their yards so if they have to quickly escape a bear, they can lock themselves in there for days. 

00:17:54,480 --> 00:18:49,870 [Speaker 0]
I don't know. It seems like they- they... Could they tranquilize them? Take them out, uh, way out into the woods? I don't know. I mean, at least we're not having to deal with this kinda problem here. We do have bears around here, so. Yeah, uh, not getting attacked by bears myself, so even though I'm tired, that- that ain't too shabby, you know? [laughs] Worst thing I got going on is I, uh, dropped the ball on- on a spot, on a commercial. Screwed that up. Should be easy l- easy to fix, so.[rock music] All right, we'll get into some other stuff, some other freak news-ish stuff as we roll through the eight o'clock hour. And if you need to reach me, you know what to do. You call me. [rock music] Well, if you think in the big city you can get away with not paying tolls, you're wrong. They're gonna catch you eventually. 

00:18:49,870 --> 00:18:57,870 [Speaker 0]
Even if you modify your vehicle to have one of these sweet little flip down license plate covering up devices. [laughs]

00:18:59,270 --> 00:19:04,750 [Speaker 0]
 Where was this guy? Oh, I guess in Australia. 

00:19:04,750 --> 00:19:29,370 [Speaker 0]
So yeah, he modified his Lexus so that in- any time he was getting close to a toll point, it would just, you know, flip down and cover up his license plate so that he, uh, didn't have to pay. I guess he forgot that there are cameras everywhere nowadays. You're not gonna get away with this kind of thing. [laughs] Stealth plate curtain. Can you buy that on, uh, Amazon? [laughs] Where, where do you get those? 

00:19:29,370 --> 00:19:37,970 [Speaker 0]
Okay, I'm, I'm actually gonna see if you can buy one. [laughs] Christmas is coming up. Stealth 

00:19:37,970 --> 00:19:39,550 [Speaker 0]
plate 

00:19:39,610 --> 00:19:48,890 [Speaker 0]
cover. [laughs] You, you can. [laughs] I mean, these, wow. Yeah. 

00:19:48,890 --> 00:20:47,050 [Speaker 0]
Some of these look like they would obscure your license plate pretty badly, and we've talked about this on Traffic School, powered by The Advocates. Uh, putting any kind of cover over your license plate is against the law. I've seen people around here with, like, really darkly tinted ones, and they always tend to be on vehicles where the people are driving, like, complete turds. Uh, some guy went whipping around me on Sunnyside the other day, probably like 60 miles an hour, and yeah, I, I was ready to call it in. Driving reckless? I was ready to be a snitch, but I couldn't read his license plate, so I guess it worked. [laughs] But if Lieutenant Craner's buddies see that you got one of those on your car, you're gonna have a bad time, okay? And again, there are cameras everywhere. You're gonna get caught eventually. Don't break the law. They're always watching. Big Brother always watching. All right, so glad that, uh, it's after 8:00, 

00:20:47,050 --> 00:21:40,230 [Speaker 0]
'cause when I got in here at 6:00, I was like, "Ugh, s- it's 6:00." [claps hands] This day needs to go by quickly. I'm excited. I got my kids coming over to hang out. Haven't seen them in a long time. Should be good times. [rock music] What's up, people? Hope Monday's treating you nicely. All right, where'd that tab go that I had here? [humming] Too many tabs open. [laughs] Hey, it's called being prepared, people. Not very good at it sometimes. What is going on? I totally had something to talk about. It's about a guy putting, putting meth inside of the drop box at a bank. Yeah, you, you can't really deposit that, uh, for any kind of, you know, monetary value, but, you know, some people are dumb. Okay, there we go. 

00:21:40,290 --> 00:22:44,330 [Speaker 0]
That, that's kinda funny. The guy looks like, uh, one of our listeners, but he's an Ohio man. [laughs] Sent the, uh, meth through the pneumatic tube. You know, we had a guy recently who sent a lit cigar through one, and, uh, was arrested after employees were injured by the smoke from the cigar. [choking noise] I thought that was kinda weak. Like, come on, if you've sat in traffic, you, you've been irritated by smells, but still, he could have burned the place down, I suppose. Uh, meth, you know, a- another item that people are not gonna wanna receive when they're just trying to do their, their dog at the bank. Um, yeah, on the day in question, bank employee called deputies to report finding a crystal-like substance consistent with meth in a baggie that had accompanied a transaction. Yeah, probably not gonna look good if you're putting cash through as well. Um, no word in this article as to whether or not the guy was charged with any kind of a drug dealing or anything like that, but, uh, 

00:22:44,330 --> 00:22:47,510 [Speaker 0]
the authorities did wanna let people know, um, 

00:22:47,510 --> 00:23:08,730 [Speaker 0]
please don't, uh, deposit your illegal drugs in the bank drive through, but you can, you know, turn them in at the local sheriff's office. They'd be happy to help you, uh, process those. [laughs] All right, well, you know, we've been disappointed by Florida Man in recent weeks. Not a lot of Florida news coming out, but 

00:23:08,730 --> 00:23:20,800 [Speaker 0]
I think we've had numerous Ohio stories, so maybe Ohio becoming the new Florida? I'll take it, long as I got content for this show. [rock music] Well, hello Peaches. How's it going, homie? 

00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,520 [Speaker 1]
I hate that big buildup into nothing. 

00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,620 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] You don't like songs that end on a, a cold ending? 

00:23:26,620 --> 00:23:32,290 [Speaker 1]
No, songs that have this big buildup and you're expecting something next, and then it's nothing. Like, that's, that's the end of the song. 

00:23:32,290 --> 00:23:42,870 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, I wish that song was longer, 'cause I like Nine- Nine Inch Nails, so I, I always want the songs to be longer. Not everybody can be Tool that gives you that 12 minutes you want. Yeah. 

00:23:42,870 --> 00:23:47,730 [Speaker 1]
If I was a rock artist, I'd be mad that that song's up for best rock song up for the Grammys. 

00:23:47,730 --> 00:23:48,270 [Speaker 0]
Really? 

00:23:48,270 --> 00:23:48,830 [Speaker 1]
Yeah, yeah. 

00:23:48,830 --> 00:23:49,050 [Speaker 0]
Why? 

00:23:49,050 --> 00:23:50,730 [Speaker 1]
That's not even a rock song. It's just- 

00:23:50,730 --> 00:23:51,520 [Speaker 0]
That's a rock song. 

00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,590 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] It's, it's like a Daft Punk tribute track. 

00:23:53,590 --> 00:23:58,070 [Speaker 0]
How dare you? How dare you compare Nine Inch Nails to Daft Punk? 

00:23:58,070 --> 00:24:01,510 [Speaker 1]
It's not even like their original in- it's, it's for the movie Tron. 

00:24:01,510 --> 00:24:01,670 [Speaker 0]
Yeah. 

00:24:01,670 --> 00:24:03,850 [Speaker 1]
It's not like them trying to come up with their own- 

00:24:03,850 --> 00:24:04,869 [Speaker 0]
What do you mean? 

00:24:04,870 --> 00:24:05,030 [Speaker 1]
It- it's- 

00:24:05,030 --> 00:24:05,730 [Speaker 0]
It's Nine Inch Nails. 

00:24:05,730 --> 00:24:07,410 [Speaker 1]
It's specifically for the movie. 

00:24:07,410 --> 00:24:07,890 [Speaker 0]
Yeah. 

00:24:07,890 --> 00:24:12,470 [Speaker 1]
It's not like they came out with their own, like, album or something like that. It's like the Tron soundtrack. 

00:24:12,470 --> 00:24:14,549 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, but it's still a Nine Inch Nails album. 

00:24:14,550 --> 00:24:15,590 [Speaker 1]
Yeah, yeah, but it's- 

00:24:15,590 --> 00:24:15,840 [Speaker 0]
And that song- 

00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,710 [Speaker 1]
... a movie soundtrack. It's not... 

00:24:17,710 --> 00:24:23,150 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, but I'm pretty sure there have been other songs made for movies that, uh, have won awards over the years. 

00:24:23,150 --> 00:24:27,870 [Speaker 1]
Well, yeah, but I mean, still, I... It's not a rock song. It's 

00:24:27,870 --> 00:24:27,930 [Speaker 1]
more so dance. 

00:24:27,930 --> 00:24:30,710 [Speaker 0]
Oh, you're gonna be one of those guys, "This isn't rock music." [laughs] 

00:24:30,710 --> 00:24:31,720 [Speaker 1]
Well, it's definitely a dance. 

00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:37,041 [Speaker 0]
"Just put it on, u- on TO3."[rock music] Ah, it's, it's a rock song. It's Nine Inch Nails. You, you get- 

00:24:37,042 --> 00:24:37,211 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] 

00:24:37,211 --> 00:24:41,542 [Speaker 0]
... you get with that, Peaches. What are the other, uh, rock song nominees? 

00:24:41,542 --> 00:24:42,002 [Speaker 1]
I don't know. 

00:24:42,002 --> 00:24:43,272 [Speaker 0]
I don't know. Let's look 'em up here. 

00:24:43,272 --> 00:24:44,772 [Speaker 1]
Not on the board for the Grammys? 

00:24:44,772 --> 00:24:58,022 [Speaker 0]
Grammy rock nominees. [clicks tongue] 'Cause generally... Let's see here. Oh, that's last, last year. 

00:24:58,022 --> 00:24:59,822 [Speaker 0]
Let's see here. Well, yeah. 

00:24:59,822 --> 00:25:01,331 [Speaker 1]
You gotta type in "2026." 

00:25:01,331 --> 00:25:01,772 [Speaker 0]
In 2026. There we go. 

00:25:01,772 --> 00:25:01,822 [Speaker 1]
Yeah. 

00:25:01,822 --> 00:25:01,922 [Speaker 0]
I got it. 

00:25:01,922 --> 00:25:03,522 [Speaker 1]
Caramel from Sleep Token. 

00:25:03,522 --> 00:25:04,162 [Speaker 0]
Okay. 

00:25:04,162 --> 00:25:08,442 [Speaker 1]
Glum from Hayley Williams. Never Enough Turnstile and Zombie Youngblood. 

00:25:08,442 --> 00:25:10,942 [Speaker 0]
Oh, yeah. Give it to Nine Inch Nails for sure. 

00:25:10,942 --> 00:25:12,581 [Speaker 1]
I'm sure Sleep Token's gonna... 

00:25:12,581 --> 00:25:14,022 [Speaker 0]
Sleep Token will probably win it. 

00:25:14,022 --> 00:25:14,422 [Speaker 1]
Yeah. 

00:25:14,422 --> 00:25:28,962 [Speaker 0]
Even though they have better songs than that one on the new album, but that song's pretty popular, you know, it was one of the biggest songs of the year. It, it probably deserves to win. That, they didn't win any Grammies for that last album, did they? Sleep Token? 

00:25:28,962 --> 00:25:29,762 [Speaker 1]
I'm not sure. 

00:25:29,762 --> 00:25:30,041 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, I- 

00:25:30,042 --> 00:25:34,482 [Speaker 1]
I really don't pay attention all that much. I just, I, uh, look at the nominees and I go, "Okay, that's funny," and then th- that's about it. 

00:25:34,482 --> 00:25:37,002 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, I mean, the Grammies always suck, so. 

00:25:37,002 --> 00:25:41,101 [Speaker 1]
The only one I know about is Spiritbox losing to Gojira last year and that was it. 

00:25:41,101 --> 00:25:57,902 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, and that, I mean, nobody... If, if Gojira had lost for that performance, that would've been ridiculous, 'cause that definitely blew away any other kind of music video or anything like that. You know, that, uh, Olympic performance? It was amazing. It was one of the coolest things I've ever seen. 

00:25:57,902 --> 00:25:58,302 [Speaker 1]
Yeah. 

00:25:58,302 --> 00:26:02,861 [Speaker 0]
As far as metal goes. That band needs to put out some new music. Gojira. 

00:26:02,861 --> 00:26:05,682 [Speaker 1]
There's a, there are a lot of bands that need to put out new stuff. 

00:26:05,682 --> 00:26:13,502 [Speaker 0]
I think it would be fun to go see Gojira right now 'cause their guitarist, uh, slash front man, he's, uh, he, like, screwed his arm up or something. 

00:26:13,502 --> 00:26:15,542 [Speaker 1]
Is it Mario Duplant? Is that how you say his name? 

00:26:15,542 --> 00:26:16,871 [Speaker 0]
Uh, that's the drummer. 

00:26:16,871 --> 00:26:16,962 [Speaker 1]
Oh. 

00:26:16,962 --> 00:26:48,261 [Speaker 0]
Uh, what's his name? Joe. Joe. But, uh, so he's not playing guitar. They got a guest guitarist, but he's singing, uh, still just doing the front man style and, um, one thing I can say is, you know, when you're seeing him play, you're never gonna sing as good as if you're just focused on singing. So, I bet right now would be a pretty amazing time to see Gojira. That's who we need at the Mountain America Center. We need Gojira. We were talking about how, uh, Goo Goo Dolls got announced off-air. 

00:26:48,262 --> 00:26:50,522 [Speaker 1]
Yeah, they chose the wrong band. It starts with G-O. 

00:26:50,522 --> 00:26:54,141 [Speaker 0]
That's right [laughs]. It should've been Gojira, not Goo- 

00:26:54,141 --> 00:26:54,532 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] 

00:26:54,532 --> 00:27:01,161 [Speaker 0]
... it's supposed to be G- O. [laughs] I'm sure we'll get some rock shows announced eventually here. 

00:27:01,161 --> 00:27:07,022 [Speaker 1]
I, I know the one time I saw Goo Goo Dolls at the Hollywood, uh, Palladium, I started a mosh pit with my friend Zach and everyone got really mad [laughs]. 

00:27:07,022 --> 00:27:10,742 [Speaker 0]
Ah, probably. It'd be like moshing at Seether. [laughs] 

00:27:10,742 --> 00:27:11,511 [Speaker 1]
You ripped my belt off. 

00:27:11,511 --> 00:27:11,982 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:27:11,982 --> 00:27:13,641 [Speaker 1]
We'll ban you from the subreddit. 

00:27:13,641 --> 00:27:15,071 [Speaker 0]
You are now perma-banned- 

00:27:15,071 --> 00:27:15,071 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] 

00:27:15,071 --> 00:27:17,022 [Speaker 0]
... from the Seether subreddit. 

00:27:17,022 --> 00:27:17,791 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] 

00:27:17,791 --> 00:27:17,821 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:27:17,822 --> 00:27:22,782 [Speaker 1]
I really wanna know what that moderator looks like. I bet, I bet he looks like some, you know, typical R- Reddit mod. 

00:27:22,782 --> 00:27:29,462 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, I wonder if he heard us, uh, you know, do our follow-up break where we talked about it, uh, on, you know, my show and Noon. 

00:27:29,462 --> 00:27:32,341 [Speaker 1]
I know them hate listening to my podcast, my numbers are going way high. 

00:27:32,341 --> 00:27:32,682 [Speaker 0]
Yeah? 

00:27:32,682 --> 00:27:32,942 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] 

00:27:32,942 --> 00:27:44,661 [Speaker 0]
Yeah? It's helping you out? [laughs] Okay, let's just start making subreddits mad. We'll just pick a random subreddit and trash it every week and then make sure to put it in the title of, eh, you know, we gotta make sure they're active on YouTube. 

00:27:44,661 --> 00:27:48,042 [Speaker 1]
I say we go next to, uh, R/Metalcore. 

00:27:48,042 --> 00:27:48,462 [Speaker 0]
Oh [laughs]. 

00:27:48,462 --> 00:27:49,641 [Speaker 1]
That's full of haters. 

00:27:49,641 --> 00:27:54,722 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] That one would be pretty good. Y- they, they'd be enraged. 

00:27:54,722 --> 00:28:02,702 [Speaker 1]
Uh, have a, make a post about how Nine Inch Nails: As Alive As You Need Me To Be is the best metal song of all time. 

00:28:02,702 --> 00:28:02,742 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:28:02,742 --> 00:28:04,302 [Speaker 1]
No one can top it. Not Death. 

00:28:04,302 --> 00:28:04,702 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:28:04,702 --> 00:28:05,762 [Speaker 1]
Not Lamb of God. 

00:28:05,762 --> 00:28:27,482 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Ah, that'd be pretty funny, Peaches. Uh, you know, I, I tend to do a bit of trolling every now and again, and, um, sometimes, you know, people don't get when you're trolling and that makes it really funny. So, the, R/Metalcore would probably be one of those places where they don't understand that they're being trolled, you know, 'cause there's a, there's a lot of idiots in there. 

00:28:27,482 --> 00:28:31,062 [Speaker 1]
But you would get some smart alecs that would go like, "Rage bait!" in the comments. 

00:28:31,062 --> 00:28:37,242 [Speaker 0]
Y- yeah. Rage bait's good. Rage bait's good stuff. That was the, uh, what? Oxford Dictionary word of the year? 

00:28:37,242 --> 00:28:37,802 [Speaker 1]
Oh, yeah. 

00:28:37,802 --> 00:28:39,262 [Speaker 0]
Rage bait, mm-hmm. 

00:28:39,262 --> 00:28:41,562 [Speaker 1]
Isn't it two? 

00:28:41,562 --> 00:28:42,081 [Speaker 0]
Two? 

00:28:42,081 --> 00:28:44,222 [Speaker 1]
It's two words. 

00:28:44,222 --> 00:28:46,361 [Speaker 0]
I don't know. Is it rage-bait? 

00:28:46,361 --> 00:28:48,002 [Speaker 1]
No, I don't think so. 

00:28:48,002 --> 00:29:01,641 [Speaker 0]
Or is it all lumped together? Rage bait? I s- I just saw something in the news about that the other day, that it was the word of the year, so I, I don't know. Maybe they do phrases in the dictionary now, too. Heck if I know. 

00:29:01,641 --> 00:29:07,442 [Speaker 1]
Yeah, I do, I see it the, the, the three separate ways. I see it as one word, hyphenated, and then two words. 

00:29:07,442 --> 00:29:21,722 [Speaker 0]
Okay, no clear answer. No consensus. Typical. [rock music] All right, we got Peaches back in the studio. We were talking off-air about this, I don't know, half hour or so ago. Avenged Sevenfold, they put this song out, what, two days ago? 

00:29:21,722 --> 00:29:22,841 [Speaker 1]
Uh, yeah. 

00:29:22,841 --> 00:29:23,422 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, and, uh- 

00:29:23,422 --> 00:29:24,741 [Speaker 1]
Should've never done it. 

00:29:24,742 --> 00:29:25,012 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:29:25,012 --> 00:29:25,502 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] 

00:29:25,502 --> 00:29:27,972 [Speaker 0]
Well, I, I disagree, Peaches. One of us has to disagree. 

00:29:27,972 --> 00:29:28,072 [Speaker 1]
No! 

00:29:28,072 --> 00:29:29,202 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Um- 

00:29:29,202 --> 00:29:31,702 [Speaker 1]
Go ahead and let... This is my M Shadows impression, "Ah." 

00:29:31,702 --> 00:29:38,882 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Whatever, Peaches. So, this is a track that appears on, is it, uh, Call of Duty 7? 

00:29:38,882 --> 00:29:39,962 [Speaker 1]
Black Ops 7. 

00:29:39,962 --> 00:29:41,002 [Speaker 0]
Okay, and- 

00:29:41,002 --> 00:29:43,141 [Speaker 1]
One of the worst video games of all time [laughs]. 

00:29:43,141 --> 00:29:49,502 [Speaker 0]
I have seen that it was not reviewed very well, but I also haven't played much of any of the Black, Black Ops games, so. 

00:29:49,502 --> 00:29:53,752 [Speaker 1]
The developers were like, "Hey, thank you guys for the outstanding reviews," and everyone was laughing at them- 

00:29:53,752 --> 00:29:53,752 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:29:53,752 --> 00:29:55,601 [Speaker 1]
... because they're clearly just tone deaf. 

00:29:55,601 --> 00:29:58,312 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Whatever, Peaches. So, I went and listened to- 

00:29:58,312 --> 00:30:00,061 [Speaker 1]
No, no, not Avenged Sevenfold, the developers of- 

00:30:00,062 --> 00:30:01,382 [Speaker 0]
Oh, the developers of the game? 

00:30:01,382 --> 00:30:01,722 [Speaker 1]
Yeah. 

00:30:01,722 --> 00:30:02,772 [Speaker 0]
Okay, okay. 

00:30:02,772 --> 00:30:02,802 [Speaker 1]
Yeah. 

00:30:02,802 --> 00:30:06,722 [Speaker 0]
So, I thought you were talking about the, uh, the fans of the music or whoever thought- 

00:30:06,722 --> 00:30:06,851 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] 

00:30:06,851 --> 00:30:08,601 [Speaker 0]
... this song was good, but I think- 

00:30:08,601 --> 00:30:10,442 [Speaker 1]
Not too many people thought that song's good [laughs]. 

00:30:10,442 --> 00:30:14,252 [Speaker 0]
I think it's good. I was expec- I don't know what I was expecting. 

00:30:14,252 --> 00:30:20,641 [Speaker 1]
I, I, I went onto Twitter a couple days ago and there was a whole thread of people just trashing the, the last Avenged Sevenfold album. 

00:30:20,641 --> 00:30:34,181 [Speaker 0]
Well, and I think that's their best album, you know, but I'm, I'm weird like that. You know, I, I don't like their straightforward rock stuff. I, when they got real weird on that last album, super proggy and strange, I was like, "All right." 

00:30:34,182 --> 00:30:38,502 [Speaker 1]
They're coming off as, like, pretentious jerks now.Especially M. Shadows. 

00:30:38,502 --> 00:30:39,522 [Speaker 0]
Is he coming off as a pretentious jerk? 

00:30:39,522 --> 00:30:44,881 [Speaker 1]
Oh, we care about NFTs, we wanna be experimental. And you see him on stage with that stupid little contraption- 

00:30:44,882 --> 00:30:45,412 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] I- 

00:30:45,412 --> 00:30:47,102 [Speaker 1]
... Auto-tuning his voice and all that. 

00:30:47,102 --> 00:30:50,002 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] I like it, dude. I like when bands get weird, so- 

00:30:50,002 --> 00:30:52,162 [Speaker 1]
He's getting too weird with the mushrooms. A comment down. 

00:30:52,162 --> 00:30:52,312 [Speaker 0]
Uh- 

00:30:52,312 --> 00:30:52,312 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] 

00:30:52,312 --> 00:30:56,642 [Speaker 0]
... one of the comments on, uh, YouTube was, "Okay, guys, that's enough drugs for you." [laughs] 

00:30:56,642 --> 00:30:58,522 [Speaker 1]
Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah. 

00:30:58,522 --> 00:30:59,912 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] So, but they- 

00:30:59,912 --> 00:31:02,132 [Speaker 1]
Honeysun Beach, whoa, man [laughs]. 

00:31:02,132 --> 00:31:30,082 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] The, uh, the comments are definitely pretty split. Seems like people really like it, and then other people are like, "Please go back to, [laughs] you know, your old sound." So, you put it in the system, figured we'd play it for listeners, and then we'll do a little bit of, uh, crank it or yank it action, see what listeners have to say. Now, don't start calling till the song's over, okay? It has a lot of different parts. I don't wanna know what you think about the beginning of it. I wanna know about the whole song, 'cause it's weird. 

00:31:30,082 --> 00:31:35,002 [Speaker 1]
I, I can guarantee you some people are gonna straight up hear the auto-tune and be like, "Uh, uh, uh, uh, what's a yank it?" 

00:31:35,002 --> 00:31:36,422 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:31:36,422 --> 00:31:39,522 [Speaker 1]
Just because they'll hear that auto-tune and, you know, complain about that. 

00:31:39,522 --> 00:32:01,642 [Speaker 0]
So, I'm not even gonna pick up the phone until the song's done, all right? So, don't waste your time calling with your opinion on it till it's completely over. Then we'll take some calls. It's a new song called Magic. And to me, it, it sounds like it would fit good in a video game, but I, I don't know. It would seem like it'd fit better in a video game like, uh, I don't know, Super Meat Boy or something [laughs]. 

00:32:01,642 --> 00:32:02,212 [Speaker 1]
Do we have- 

00:32:02,212 --> 00:32:02,252 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:32:02,252 --> 00:32:04,442 [Speaker 1]
... Avenged Sevenfold: Carry On in the system? 

00:32:04,442 --> 00:32:05,702 [Speaker 0]
Uh, maybe. I don't know. 

00:32:05,702 --> 00:32:09,422 [Speaker 1]
That's from the, th- the, one of the older Black Ops games, and that song was good. 

00:32:09,422 --> 00:32:26,362 [Speaker 0]
Yeah. Uh, this song, I think this song's good. I liked it on first listen, but you, I, you know I like weird music, so here we go, everybody. Avenged Sevenfold, Magic. Then we'll take your calls and see what you think about it. [instrumental music] New from Avenged Sevenfold, Magic. 

00:32:26,362 --> 00:32:27,102 [Speaker 1]
[sings] 

00:32:27,102 --> 00:32:31,612 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Whatever beat it is [laughs]. 

00:32:31,612 --> 00:32:31,612 [Speaker 1]
[sings] 

00:32:31,612 --> 00:32:35,062 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] I think it's good. It sounds perfect for a video game. Yeah, it's- 

00:32:35,062 --> 00:32:38,102 [Speaker 1]
For a crap video game like Black Ops 7? Yes, it does. 

00:32:38,102 --> 00:32:48,361 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] So, we're doing a little crank it or yank it on that. If you wanna call us with your opinion on it, 208-535-1015. Just, just curious what you think, and, uh- 

00:32:48,362 --> 00:32:51,182 [Speaker 1]
Bonus points if you do your best M. Shadows impression on, on [laughs]- 

00:32:51,182 --> 00:32:51,232 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:32:51,232 --> 00:32:54,422 [Speaker 1]
... from that song. [sings] 

00:32:54,422 --> 00:33:12,662 [Speaker 0]
As you, uh, know, I like it. Peaches doesn't. [laughs] And the internet looks pretty split on it as well. People seem to either really like it or just hate it, just hate it. And I, I was expecting it to be way worse, but I should have known, I guess, it would be weird 'cause that's just kinda what they've been doing for a while. 

00:33:12,662 --> 00:33:15,622 [Speaker 1]
It's more tolerable than that, than that, uh, Nobody song. 

00:33:15,622 --> 00:33:25,822 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] I think Nobody's good, dude. That, that, that's a quality track. All right, let's go to the phones here. K-Bear, you are live on the show. Keep that in mind. Who's this? Hello? 

00:33:25,822 --> 00:33:27,042 [Speaker 2]
Revonda. 

00:33:27,042 --> 00:33:29,682 [Speaker 0]
Oh, Revonda! What is Revonda- 

00:33:29,682 --> 00:33:33,432 [Speaker 2]
And, and I gotta agree with Peaches. That song is horrible [laughs]. 

00:33:33,432 --> 00:33:36,422 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Whatever, Revonda. You get. [laughs] 

00:33:36,422 --> 00:33:38,182 [Speaker 2]
It is terrible. 

00:33:38,182 --> 00:33:38,222 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:33:38,222 --> 00:33:41,142 [Speaker 2]
Never play it again. Never play it again [laughs]. 

00:33:41,142 --> 00:33:45,702 [Speaker 0]
Oh, never tell me to never play something again. I'll play it every hour [laughs]. 

00:33:45,702 --> 00:33:48,122 [Speaker 2]
Oh, gee, dang it. 

00:33:48,122 --> 00:33:48,142 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:33:48,142 --> 00:33:51,742 [Speaker 2]
I guess I'll go... I'll... I guess I'll go to a different radio station [laughs]. 

00:33:51,742 --> 00:33:56,802 [Speaker 0]
No! Oh, not that threat. Not that threat [laughs]. 

00:33:56,802 --> 00:33:59,222 [Speaker 2]
[laughs] But Peaches, you are right. It is horrible. 

00:33:59,222 --> 00:33:59,762 [Speaker 1]
Thank you. 

00:33:59,762 --> 00:34:04,842 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Well, we appreciate your feedback, Revonda, and hope you have a great day [laughs]. 

00:34:04,842 --> 00:34:06,042 [Speaker 2]
You too. Bye. 

00:34:06,042 --> 00:34:16,462 [Speaker 0]
Bye [laughs]. All right. [phone hangs up] K-Bear... Oh! How, how dare you hang up? All right, K-Bear, you are live on the show. Keep that in mind. Who's this? 

00:34:16,462 --> 00:34:18,032 [Speaker 3]
Uh, this is Bennett. 

00:34:18,032 --> 00:34:22,662 [Speaker 0]
Bennett? All right, what you got? What's your opinion on Avenged Sevenfold, Magic? 

00:34:22,662 --> 00:34:28,101 [Speaker 3]
Well, I did not change the radio station, but 

00:34:28,101 --> 00:34:29,822 [Speaker 3]
I won't be putting it on my playlist. 

00:34:29,822 --> 00:34:35,762 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Okay, so that... Now, uh, so crank it or yank it? 

00:34:35,762 --> 00:34:36,572 [Speaker 3]
Oh, yank it. 

00:34:36,572 --> 00:34:40,042 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Okay. Two votes for yank so far. 

00:34:40,042 --> 00:34:40,842 [Speaker 3]
Yeah. 

00:34:40,842 --> 00:34:46,062 [Speaker 0]
All right. All right, Bennett, we appreciate the feedback today and hope you have a good one, man. 

00:34:46,062 --> 00:34:47,122 [Speaker 3]
You too. See ya. 

00:34:47,122 --> 00:34:48,542 [Speaker 0]
See ya. Uh- 

00:34:48,542 --> 00:34:49,882 [Speaker 1]
So far, two on my team. 

00:34:49,882 --> 00:35:04,122 [Speaker 0]
Two on Team Peaches, zero on Team Victor for Avenged Sevenfold, Magic. Now, they did announce that they're gonna be, uh, touring with Good Charlotte coming to the Utah First Credit Union Amphitheater. 

00:35:04,122 --> 00:35:04,932 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] 

00:35:04,932 --> 00:35:04,941 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] On- 

00:35:04,942 --> 00:35:08,262 [Speaker 1]
It's the first, uh, US tour for Good Charlotte since 2018. 

00:35:08,262 --> 00:35:08,922 [Speaker 0]
Wow! 

00:35:08,922 --> 00:35:12,222 [Speaker 1]
Uh, I'm like, "Did they just purposely avoid the US, or what happened there?" 

00:35:12,222 --> 00:35:14,662 [Speaker 0]
Well, you know, um, 

00:35:14,662 --> 00:35:19,792 [Speaker 0]
you might, uh, not like that song. I'm not a big fan of the support [laughs] for that tour- 

00:35:19,792 --> 00:35:19,792 [Speaker 1]
I, I, I delete- 

00:35:19,792 --> 00:35:21,302 [Speaker 0]
... of Good Charlotte. Not really my thing. 

00:35:21,302 --> 00:35:28,422 [Speaker 1]
I deleted my, uh, reaction video to the latest Good Charlotte song 'cause I'm like, "Those two guys look alike," and then all the comments were roasting me saying those guys are twins. 

00:35:28,422 --> 00:35:29,012 [Speaker 0]
Oh, nice [laughs]. 

00:35:29,012 --> 00:35:32,322 [Speaker 1]
So, yeah, I just delete... I deleted the, uh, the whole video. 

00:35:32,322 --> 00:35:36,462 [Speaker 0]
K-Bear, y- you're live on the show. Keep that in mind. Who's this? 

00:35:36,462 --> 00:35:37,782 [Speaker 3]
Oh, my name's Stewart. 

00:35:37,782 --> 00:35:41,802 [Speaker 0]
Stewart, all right. Crank it or yank it, Avenged Sevenfold, Magic. 

00:35:41,802 --> 00:35:42,502 [Speaker 3]
Yank it. 

00:35:42,502 --> 00:35:43,152 [Speaker 0]
Yank it. There we go. 

00:35:43,152 --> 00:35:50,742 [Speaker 3]
It just sounds like a... It just sounds like an AI generated BS mumbo jumbo. No good. 

00:35:50,742 --> 00:35:51,061 [Speaker 1]
[sings] 

00:35:51,062 --> 00:35:54,932 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] It could have been partially AI generated. I don't know. 

00:35:54,932 --> 00:35:58,662 [Speaker 1]
Knowing those guys, yeah, they probably... We, we think it's a beautiful tool. 

00:35:58,662 --> 00:35:59,222 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:35:59,222 --> 00:36:00,122 [Speaker 3]
[laughs] 

00:36:00,122 --> 00:36:09,362 [Speaker 0]
All right. So far it's, uh, three Team Peaches, zero Team Victor on Avenged Sevenfold, Magic. So, um, appreciate the call, Stewart. 

00:36:09,362 --> 00:36:10,302 [Speaker 3]
All right, take care. 

00:36:10,302 --> 00:36:28,202 [Speaker 0]
You have a good one, man. Peace. All right, everybody, keep... Feel free to keep calling, 208-535-1015. Uh, I, I know some of you don't like to be live on air, so we'll play a song, and, uh, I'll get your votes. Crank it or yank it, Avenged Sevenfold, Magic. Maybe we should play it one more time so that they- 

00:36:28,202 --> 00:36:28,612 [Speaker 1]
Oh no [laughs]. 

00:36:28,612 --> 00:36:31,242 [Speaker 0]
... so that they know what it sounds like [laughs]. 

00:36:31,242 --> 00:36:32,062 [Speaker 1]
It's your show. 

00:36:32,062 --> 00:36:35,722 [Speaker 0]
That's what you get, Revonda. K-Bear, can you- 

00:36:35,722 --> 00:36:36,762 [Speaker 2]
Hey. 

00:36:36,762 --> 00:36:38,284 [Speaker 0]
Uh, who's this?[laughs] 

00:36:38,284 --> 00:36:39,973 [Speaker 3]
[laughs] [phone rings] Oh, what's up, man? It's Anthony. 

00:36:39,974 --> 00:36:42,554 [Speaker 0]
Anthony. All right. Crank it or yank it? 

00:36:42,554 --> 00:36:46,134 [Speaker 3]
Man, I definitely did not Shazam that song. I'd say yank it. 

00:36:46,134 --> 00:36:49,704 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] All right, four votes for yank it. All right, thanks, Anthony. 

00:36:49,704 --> 00:36:50,464 [Speaker 3]
[laughs] Thanks, bro. 

00:36:50,464 --> 00:36:54,634 [Speaker 0]
Peace. [laughs] Bye. K-Bear, who's this? 

00:36:54,634 --> 00:36:55,474 [Speaker 2]
It's Steven. 

00:36:55,474 --> 00:36:59,394 [Speaker 0]
Steven. All right. Crank it or yank it, Avenged Sevenfold, Magic? 

00:36:59,394 --> 00:37:00,154 [Speaker 2]
Crank it. 

00:37:00,154 --> 00:37:01,704 [Speaker 0]
Ah, we got a vote for crank it. 

00:37:01,704 --> 00:37:01,733 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] Wonderful. 

00:37:01,734 --> 00:37:03,634 [Speaker 0]
Finally, got a vote for crank it. 

00:37:03,634 --> 00:37:04,864 [Speaker 1]
Wonderful. 

00:37:04,864 --> 00:37:09,134 [Speaker 0]
Wonderful. [laughs] All right, man. Appreciate the call today. 

00:37:09,134 --> 00:37:10,094 [Speaker 2]
Yep, have a great one. 

00:37:10,094 --> 00:37:13,434 [Speaker 0]
You too. Peace. K-Bear, who's this? 

00:37:13,434 --> 00:37:14,694 [Speaker 4]
Brian. 

00:37:14,694 --> 00:37:15,714 [Speaker 0]
And what's your vote- 

00:37:15,714 --> 00:37:15,754 [Speaker 4]
Oh. 

00:37:15,754 --> 00:37:17,254 [Speaker 0]
Crank it or yank it? 

00:37:17,314 --> 00:37:23,594 [Speaker 4]
I'm gonna say crank it just 'cause it'll take the place of one Sleep Token song. 

00:37:23,594 --> 00:37:24,714 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:37:24,714 --> 00:37:24,754 [Speaker 4]
[laughs] 

00:37:24,754 --> 00:37:27,083 [Speaker 0]
All right, all right, all right. [laughs] Well- 

00:37:27,083 --> 00:37:27,834 [Speaker 4]
[laughs] 

00:37:27,834 --> 00:37:33,454 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, we've had a lot more, uh, yank it votes than crank it, but I appre- I appreciate your crank it vote. 

00:37:33,454 --> 00:37:39,094 [Speaker 4]
Yeah, it's good. It starts out good, but it, it doesn't end so great. 

00:37:39,094 --> 00:37:39,804 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:37:39,804 --> 00:37:40,174 [Speaker 4]
[laughs] 

00:37:40,174 --> 00:37:41,994 [Speaker 0]
Well, appreciate the call, man. 

00:37:41,994 --> 00:37:42,513 [Speaker 4]
All right, man. Talk to you later. 

00:37:42,513 --> 00:37:53,614 [Speaker 0]
Peace. [instrumental music plays] There it was once again, Avenged Sevenfold, Magic, doing a little crank it or yank it action on that. Uh, so far, Peaches, uh, your side is definitely winning on the- 

00:37:53,614 --> 00:37:54,014 [Speaker 1]
No kidding 

00:37:54,014 --> 00:37:55,794 [Speaker 0]
... the yank it front. Um-- 

00:37:55,794 --> 00:37:59,614 [Speaker 1]
I can't wait to see how that pit looks at the, uh, Avenged Sevenfold show in Salt Lake City. 

00:37:59,614 --> 00:38:00,154 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:38:00,154 --> 00:38:05,534 [Speaker 1]
Whole lotta mushrooms being taken there. Whoa. 

00:38:05,594 --> 00:38:06,784 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:38:06,784 --> 00:38:06,784 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] 

00:38:06,784 --> 00:38:06,814 [Speaker 0]
Oh. 

00:38:06,814 --> 00:38:08,594 [Speaker 1]
He's so eloquent with his words. 

00:38:08,594 --> 00:38:22,454 [Speaker 0]
I, I think it's a great song. I like it. The more I hear it, the better it gets. So if you wanna call and let us know what you think, 208-535-1015. Uh, Peaches also posted a poll in the K-Bear 101 Idaho Rock and Metal Group if you just wanna vote there. 

00:38:22,454 --> 00:38:27,054 [Speaker 1]
I love how Maddie from down the hall also Snapchatted me saying, "Bro, what, what on earth is this beat here?" 

00:38:27,054 --> 00:38:30,854 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] It's a good beat. Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, boo. 

00:38:30,854 --> 00:38:36,194 [Speaker 1]
Do you think they hired Brooks Wackerman just to have that weird, psychedelic sound to them? I, I don't know. 

00:38:36,194 --> 00:38:37,414 [Speaker 0]
I don't ... Maybe. Maybe. 

00:38:37,414 --> 00:38:38,614 [Speaker 1]
Because Brooks is a great drummer. 

00:38:38,614 --> 00:38:50,774 [Speaker 0]
Oh, he ... He's really good. You know, I mean, like I said, I, I like their really proggy, weird stuff, so. Here, we'll do one more call live on air here. K-Bear, you're live on the show, keep that in mind. Who's this? 

00:38:50,774 --> 00:38:51,494 [Speaker 3]
It's James. 

00:38:51,494 --> 00:38:54,234 [Speaker 0]
James, crank it or yank it? 

00:38:54,234 --> 00:38:55,114 [Speaker 3]
Yank it. 

00:38:55,114 --> 00:38:56,534 [Speaker 0]
Yank it. All right, James. 

00:38:56,534 --> 00:38:59,274 [Speaker 3]
I mi- I miss ... I missed the rev. 

00:38:59,274 --> 00:39:00,274 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:39:00,274 --> 00:39:03,534 [Speaker 3]
He kind, he kind of kept him in a, kept him in a line. [laughs] 

00:39:03,534 --> 00:39:06,434 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, I think they're just, uh, going wild nowadays. 

00:39:06,434 --> 00:39:07,014 [Speaker 3]
They are. 

00:39:07,014 --> 00:39:08,493 [Speaker 0]
They don't care. [laughs] 

00:39:08,494 --> 00:39:15,014 [Speaker 3]
Like you said though, that, that, uh, the, the last few new releases, they've grown on me after about 20 times, so. 

00:39:15,014 --> 00:39:16,694 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, exactly. You know, you gotta- 

00:39:16,694 --> 00:39:16,934 [Speaker 3]
Yeah 

00:39:16,934 --> 00:39:20,234 [Speaker 0]
... give it another chance. Maybe I should play it again. No. [laughs] 

00:39:20,234 --> 00:39:21,514 [Speaker 1]
[laughs] Geez. 

00:39:21,514 --> 00:39:22,544 [Speaker 3]
One, one more time. 

00:39:22,544 --> 00:39:25,234 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] One more time. That's right, one more time. [laughs] 

00:39:25,234 --> 00:39:27,474 [Speaker 3]
[laughs] Yeah, yeah, yank that stuff. Don't play it no more. 

00:39:27,474 --> 00:39:28,874 [Speaker 0]
All right, friend. All right. 

00:39:28,874 --> 00:39:28,894 [Speaker 3]
[laughs] 

00:39:28,894 --> 00:39:31,534 [Speaker 0]
Peace. [laughs]. 

00:39:31,534 --> 00:39:33,614 [Speaker 4]
I say definitely yank that one as well. 

00:39:33,614 --> 00:39:34,114 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] 

00:39:34,114 --> 00:39:38,754 [Speaker 4]
Yeah, uh, everything post Hell to the King I think has been just noise. 

00:39:38,754 --> 00:39:43,544 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Hey, man, just give it about 50 listens and you'll get it. It'll click. 

00:39:43,544 --> 00:39:44,683 [Speaker 4]
[laughs] 

00:39:44,683 --> 00:39:48,713 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Well, appreciate the vote, man. 

00:39:48,714 --> 00:39:49,734 [Speaker 4]
Yes, have a good one, dude. 

00:39:49,734 --> 00:41:38,574 [Speaker 0]
You too. Peace. [instrumental music plays] It was I Prevail with a newer track, Violent Nature. Uh, prior to them dropping their new album, they fired their old co-vocalist, Brian, and he just came back on the scene with a new band called Scatterbrain. Now, there's some kinda drama going on with his original music, some kinda fight between him and the, you know, guys in I Prevail, so I'm guessing that's why he put out a cover song. I actually haven't listened to this yet, and saw that Peaches had put it in the system f- so figured I'd check it out. Uh, it's another Taylor Swift cover. You know, I Prevail pretty much blew up back in the day when they covered Blank Space, so I guess maybe he figured this would be another easy way to, uh, blow up his new project. I don't know, but I figured I better at least give it a listen. Scatterbrain, Look What You Made Me Do. [instrumental music plays] All right, I guess that one wasn't too bad. Scatterbrain covering Taylor Swift, Look What You Made Me Do. What up? I am Victor Wilt, and I just stumbled across something very silly online. There's this website called islands.com, and I guess they, yeah, give travel information. So they have this article, "Idaho's hidden gem city is a charming, affordable destination with a lively downtown and natural beauty." And I was like, "Okay. What hidden gem of a city could this be?" Then they start talking about how, you know, US dollar, you know, can go a little bit further in budget-friendly vacation destinations. So they talk about this place just a few hours from Boise. 

00:41:38,574 --> 00:42:54,818 [Speaker 0]
Budget-friendly Burley, immersed in scenic beauty and at the center of many of Idaho's top outdoor attractions [laughs]. Burley. What? They call it a hidden gem. Uh, if, if only it was e- [laughs] even more hidden and was actually a gem. You, you've gotta be kidding me. Do not go on vacation to Burley, okay? [laughs] What to do in budget-friendly downtown Burley. They say they have a lively downtown, okay? I haven't been to downtown Burley for a few years. I do my best to not go to Burley, okay? If you're a longtime listener, you've heard me talk about Burley. I lived there for about a year, worked there for, like, nine years. I refuse to live there, okay? [laughs] Yeah, after you're done soaking up historic Overland Avenue ... Oh, my goodness. That's the main road in town. Um...[instrumental music] They just say that downtown's lively. Maybe it's changed, but [laughs] I don't even remember a single store 

00:42:54,818 --> 00:43:11,238 [Speaker 0]
in downtown Burley, and I worked there for nine years. That, that's how much things stand out in downtown Burley. They say that the most popular attraction in town 

00:43:11,238 --> 00:44:14,138 [Speaker 0]
is Storybook Park. This is a park with a playground, 'kay? [laughs] Yes, it's called Storybook Park, [laughs] but, yeah, I don't think this is gonna be a, you know, a Disney story. I- I'm- I lived right down the road from Storybook Park, 'kay? Uh, plenty sketchy near Storybook Park. You certainly, uh, in my opinion, wouldn't wanna just send your kids there to play without supervision. And that is the city's top attraction, the playground at the park. And then they start talking about how if you leave Burley, there are places you can go. Like, near Burley, you have the City of Rocks. You have Albion. You know, there, there's a lot of stuff if you get away from Burley. Yeah, you can go to Lake Cleveland. Sure, those places are ni- nice, but they're not Burley, 'kay? 

00:44:14,138 --> 00:44:22,518 [Speaker 0]
You have to g- get at least 45 minutes from Burley for that scenic beauty. So, 

00:44:22,518 --> 00:44:52,558 [Speaker 0]
seriously, I- I- if you're gonna go on vacation anywhere near Burley, stay away from the actual town, pay a little bit more, and stay in Albion or something. Uh, you, you can tell when, uh, people write an article that have never been to a place. They just look up, like, "Hey, I found a picture of the river. It must be really scenic there." Yeah, uh, go drive around town. [laughs] Sorry, 

00:44:52,558 --> 00:46:06,257 [Speaker 0]
I had a lot of, uh, bad experiences in Burley. Recently, I had a nightmare. That nightmare was I was working in Burley again, for some reason, at the store I used to work in. The old bosses called me up and like, "Hey, we need you to cover a shift." And I was like, "Well, I guess," and I'm like, "No! No! No!" Woke up screaming in bed, "Help!" Not quite that bad, but it was a nightmare. [laughs] It is not a charming destination regardless of what you might read online, nor is Rupert. They mention, you know, nearby, you know, uh, historic Rupert with a beautiful and historic downtown... Mm. Rupert reeks of the, uh, like dairy plant. It stinks in Rupert so bad. [laughs] You know, they might call that area the Magic Valley. It's not magical, 'kay? It's not. [laughs] K-Bear, what's happening? 

00:46:06,258 --> 00:46:17,998 [Speaker 5]
Hey, Victor, it's Uncle Yeti out here in Ammon. The best way I could say you could describe, you know, Rupert and Burley is it's a fairy tale in the original German. 

00:46:17,998 --> 00:46:25,338 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Exactly. Exactly like the old-school Grimm's Fairy Tales. Mm-hmm. 

00:46:25,338 --> 00:46:26,718 [Speaker 5]
Very much so. 

00:46:26,718 --> 00:46:27,358 [Speaker 0]
Before they- 

00:46:27,358 --> 00:46:28,528 [Speaker 5]
Very much so. 

00:46:28,528 --> 00:46:31,678 [Speaker 0]
Before they Disneyfied 'em up. [laughs] 

00:46:31,678 --> 00:46:34,358 [Speaker 5]
Yeah. And 

00:46:34,358 --> 00:46:45,718 [Speaker 5]
there's plenty other states that have that just as bad. In New Mexico, there was a town called Reton, and it was just as bad as Burley, man. It was horrible there. 

00:46:45,718 --> 00:46:47,738 [Speaker 0]
[laughs] Yeah, that article just- 

00:46:47,738 --> 00:46:47,748 [Speaker 5]
You know? 

00:46:47,748 --> 00:46:51,028 [Speaker 0]
... cracked me up. I'm like, "You gotta be kidding me." [laughs] 

00:46:51,028 --> 00:46:57,208 [Speaker 5]
Yeah. Oh, yeah, it ... Like you said, somebody looked something up, decided to write an article about it, never been there. 

00:46:57,208 --> 00:47:12,978 [Speaker 0]
Yeah, I think you should be required to have to actually visit these places if you're gonna write an article about them. You know, did they get hired by somebody at the, uh, you know, city in Burley, like, "Help, we need to boost tourism numbers. Can you dupe some people into coming here?" [laughs] 

00:47:12,978 --> 00:47:17,818 [Speaker 5]
Yeah, they should at least have to be there for a month to, you know, fully understand everything that goes on. 

00:47:17,818 --> 00:47:24,148 [Speaker 0]
Exactly. Yeah, you, you do a month there. Whoo! Man. [laughs] 

00:47:24,148 --> 00:47:25,338 [Speaker 5]
Yeah. So- 

00:47:25,338 --> 00:47:25,588 [Speaker 0]
Oh. 

00:47:25,588 --> 00:47:26,418 [Speaker 5]
All right, man, take it easy. 

00:47:26,418 --> 00:47:28,518 [Speaker 0]
Hey, you too, man. Good to hear from you. 

00:47:28,518 --> 00:47:29,218 [Speaker 5]
Yep, bye. 

00:47:29,218 --> 00:49:39,658 [Speaker 0]
Peace. [instrumental music] All right, before that track, I played the Merry Christmas, Merry Axemas, I should say, sounder. We've teamed up with The Advocates to give away a guitar signed by Bad Omens, Halestorm, Fall Out Boy, Nevertell, and Sleep Theory. And if you hear that sounder playing, you wanna be caller number 20 so you can get an extra entry into the drawing. Now, you can sign up easily in any of our apps. Sign up once per app, the K-Bear app, Cannonball app, or Alt 101 app. But yeah, if you hear that sounder play, and we're gonna play it a bunch, every time you hear it, try to be caller number 20 so you can up your odds of winning that sweet guitar. Trust me, it would look amazing on your wall. Your friends would be jealous. It's signed by some of the biggest names in, uh, rock and metal. So again, Bad Omens, Halestorm, Sleep Theory, Nevertell, and Fall Out Boy. If you wanna get in to win, sign up in the apps or listen for the sounder and be caller number 20. So yeah, thanks again to The Advocates for teaming up with us on a sweet guitar giveaway just in time for the holidays. Me, time for me to get on outta here and go to the Monday meeting. Boo. Hopefully it'll go by fast, though. Eh, they, they tend to at this time of year. But anyway, Peaches and I'll be back at noon for the noon hour of madness and mayhem. If you listen to this show on demand and you're always, "Like, what, what is the noon hour of madness and mayhem?" That's available on demand as well everywhere podcasts can be found. And, uh, so is Peaches' show and all of our interviews and Traffic School. You know, we like to give you opportunities to listen to our crap if you aren't able to tune in all morning every day. So anyway, appreciate ya. [instrumental music] Thank you again for tuning in to the Victor Wilt Show. This program's a production of Riverbend Media Group.
