A replay of Peaches Pit Party which you can hear on KBEAR 101 weekday afternoons 2pm - 7pm MST
For 2 hours during the afternoon show on today, National Emo Day, I played all of the emo classics, all of the greatest emo songs. You can find that posted on our social media at kbear one zero one f m. Happy National Emo Day, Victor. Why do the Emos get a day? Is there a National Metal Head Day?
Sure. But why is it today that December 19th is National Emo Day? I don't know. Are we pretty close to the 1st day of winter? When's the 1st day of winter?
Well, oh, we missed National Metal Day. That's on the 11th day of the 11th month of the year. Okay. 11/11? The day was founded by VH 1 Classic was inspired by the mockumentary film, This is Spinal Tap.
Okay. Oh, yeah. I could turn it up to 11. These go to 11. That's right.
That's right. National Emo Day origin. Let me look that up real quick. Originated from the hardcore punk and post hardcore music scene in the 19 eighties. Doesn't give me a reason why.
K. What look up what the first day of winter is. 1st day of winter. I should know this because it it's, like, anytime now. Saturday, December 21st Okay.
Through Thursday, March 20, 2025. So I'm guessing, you know, emos, they're always all sad and mopey. And, oh my goodness, my crew broke my heart. So winter's kind of gloomy. Definitely.
So I'm guessing, you know, they wanted to, right before winter hits, just start crying about things because that's that's the emo way, all you emo listeners. We could Boom. Make this a PSA to, take your vitamin d. Yes. You know, make sure to get your blood checked every year by your doctors so you know if you're deficient in any vitamins.
And it does get very overcast here during the winter months. So people generally think about, you know, Washington State, Oregon, places where you gotta worry about seasonal depression and stuff like that. You might wanna stand in front of a really bright light because, it gets rough for people around here during the winter. So make sure to talk to your doctor about these things. Well, we're making it even worse for people by playing a great song, quote, unquote, great song Who said it was a great song?
The listeners. That's why I said, quote, unquote, Victor. I didn't say it was, who it was quoted. Who it was quote, unquote, great from, some guy who whose name rhymes with Dave Javis. Dave Javis Yeah.
Says that this is a great song? I don't think he even knows we're about to do what we're about to do. I don't know if he'll be listening to it at this time either. Well, he may or may not be, but someone will probably tell him about it. Yeah.
We always have snitches in the caber army. Like, we have some great listeners, but I tell you, there was one bit I was making fun of Josh, but I wasn't necessarily making fun of him, like, complete I wasn't saying, like, he's a terrible person or anything like that. I was just saying something along the lines of, like, oh, he doesn't like, peanut butter, and he also doesn't like ketchup. And I was saying that's kind of odd. It is odd.
And someone who knows Chantel told both of them. They talked to her. But there's the the person even referred to me as Peaches. They said, that guy on k Bear. Oh, so the well, I mean, then it could have been me, and I actually was talking crap on Josh.
But Chantel also talked crap before that where she thought I didn't eat any vegetables. Remember that whole thing? To remember that. Peaches has never had a vegetable in his life. Well, speaking of people with weird food tastes, you know, doesn't like chocolate and peanut butter.
I know. That's probably why he's so skinny. Maybe that's the way I should go. Know. That's probably why he's so skinny.
Maybe that's the way I should go is just avoid all the Hershey's Kisses in the break room, all the overeating for the holidays. Maybe we should force feed him, peanut butter. You know? I think he inspired Ozempic. Maybe.
People are just naturally skinny like that. It makes me so irritating. I know. He could eat anything. Hours upon hours, and I gained, like, £20.
That guy could eat 50 plus cheeseburgers in one sitting, and all he would do is just go to the bathroom and still say stay the same. Yeah. I've seen him eat terrible food just, you know, time and time again. He he never gains it. Time.
Right? Oh, yeah. He's a meat guy. Yeah. He's a meat guy.
That chili he brought me, it had, like, 5 different kinds of meat in it. It had sausage Oh. And bacon and beef. Sounds like a lot of farting. And brisket full of gas.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it was more meat than beans, so it had to be you know, it had to have some calories in it. Anyhow, the guy we're talking about, obviously, Jay Davis, and he was in this awful band back in the day.
They were the worst local band of all time. Made me wanna puke. And it's perfectly fitting that their band name is Death in December. Uh-huh. See what see what I'm talking about with emos and wintertime and You're on something.
A death is extra sad when it happens in the middle of the winter months. What's the name of this song? Forever. I will be an emo forever even if I have a long straightened beard and gray hair. You're still onto the whole, like, he straightens his beard thing, aren't you?
Which I've done before, so I I feel perfectly fine shaming him for something I have done. You straightened your goatee? Oh, that was real long. Yeah. You grew it like the Scott Ian look.
Yeah. It was real long and it so it would just kinda flare out at the sides and look terrible. So if you straightened it like, I wish one of these days, Jade would come in without straightening his beard so we could see what it looks like after a full night's sleep. I did see some great photos of Jade back when he was my age in this band if you'd look up death in December. Oh, yeah.
There's a photo. Facebook. There's him in the back looking all serious. Oh, yeah. I wonder if he'd scrutinized every single one of them.
If he had focus meetings with any single member of the band and was like, you know what? You could do better on the stage. We're gonna give you a a pip. Well, those guys were friends with guys who actually, like, made clothing or actual fashion designers and stuff, so they had the look going on. My band that we had a feud with Jade's band, you know, a feud A feud, quote, unquote.
For many years. Like how the song's great, quote, unquote. Like, we just I mean, I dressed like this. You know? And we're we're just dirty metal guys.
Jade's band, those were the guys picking up all the chicks. You know? It wasn't wasn't our band. Which is weird because if you look at them, they look like they could be, like, almost like a white chicks type situation. They you know?
Blend in. Yeah. You know, they the emo look of the late nineties, early 2000 was kinda like an expansion upon the the hair metal look of the eighties. You know? So ladies love that stuff, man.
I mean I couldn't pull it off. Kudos to Jade for doing so. Yeah. I still did, you know, fine with the ladies. But, I think that the music itself also was definitely you know, the demographics were generally a little bit more, female than what we did.
So Sure. We figured for national emo day, it would just be wrong if we didn't play some of East Idaho's premier emo band, death in December, featuring Jay Davis on guitar. I don't know if he does any backup vocals on this. He might. I'd have to ask him.
But I was listening to it trying to see if I could recognize his voice at all, and I feel like there's just that one whiny dude, and that is it. Yeah. Do you have to train for something like that? Like No. You just sound like this.
You do it all the time. I've heard your email voice. Yeah. But, I mean, it's not good. Well, it's kinda like country vocalists.
They're not skilled. Oh, Chris Stapleton is certainly skilled. We've talked about him. He's the exception to the rule. But most of them, I wouldn't call what they do business.
Them doors and turn them lights. Come on. Exactly. Yeah. You just put on the twang and hit notes.
Alright? It's, to me, not a sign of vocal talent. Kinda like a lot of emo bands. No. I'm playing even there's some emo bands that sing really good.
As music director, I'm shocked that you failed on getting that song because tonight will be the night on alt 101. It's not in that library. No. Maybe maybe we should add it. I think there's already so much emo on alt.
That's why I was like, we need more punk rock. Alright? Enough with the emo bands already. One zero one. I know.
Today, K Bear turns into jade 101 for 1 hour during the 4 PM hour. That's why I had to, you know, jump in and start fighting with Jade about alt 101. We need more than your emo bands, buddy. It is indeed pre Friday, aka Thursday, December 19, 2024, 6 days till Christmas. Most importantly, as we just talked about at the beginning part of the show, it is National Emo Day.
And I figured, you know what? For one day, I could spice things up for Depeach Thirone during the 4 PM hour and just do a straight up hour of emo classics if, you want to, put in your input. Because my Depeach Thrown question is, what's your, favorite emo track or what's your what did exactly what exactly did I ask in the K Barrel 101 Idaho Rock and Metal Facebook group? I posted it early this morning, like, at 6:30. All of a sudden, it popped up on my Facebook saying, yeah, today's National Emo Day.
I went, okay. Cool. I'll make that today's, show theme. Oh, I wrote, what's your favorite emo song? And, I already lined up a couple of these that people have put in the comment section.
But if you want to add your favorite, and we have it in the library, I'll make sure to get it on during the 4 PM hour. And who knows? Maybe tons of people will end up calling in, and it'll leak over during the 5 PM hour. So we're celebrating National Emo Day around here, apparently. If you wanna get ahold of me, you know the number to call.
208-535-1015. Peach's pit party on cable era 101. The Wii certainly died out. The Nintendo Wii, like, it was completely innovative, extremely cool for a little while there, and then yeah. Now it's just it's a thing of the past.
And the Nintendo Switch, people have moved on to, and that system seems to be doing extremely well. It just surpassed the PlayStation 2 to become the 2nd best selling gaming console in history, with sales reaching nearly 50,000,000 units. The Switch now only trails the Nintendo DS. Even the DS, I mean, I had one of those, played it for a little while, played Nintendogs, didn't really care for anything that was handheld back in the day, especially the Nintendo DS when there's consoles available to play. I've been really wanting to get a Switch, but with next year, with them releasing the Nintendo Switch 2, I might just wait for that.
My mom and I used to play Animal Crossing quite a lot on the Wii back in the day. There was never any video game that she would touch except for Animal Crossing City Folk for the Nintendo Wii. For some reason, that was her go to game. I don't know why. She collected every single fish.
She got all the bells. I mean, she was like a multimillionaire in that game, and I think we ended up getting rid of the Wii a couple years back. Otherwise, she would still be playing it. But I kinda wanna gift her, especially for next year, for her birthday, her big milestone birthday. I'm not gonna reveal her age on the air, but, it'll be a big milestone birthday for her.
And I was thinking, I'm like, you know what? Maybe I should get her a Nintendo Switch, get one for real cheap, and then get her the Animal Crossing game. Maybe I'll team up with my sister and my dad and get her that, see if she'll get addicted to the game again. Pearl Jam on Kay Bear, which reminds me that, there was this Instagram reel making the rounds. I've seen it multiple times by now.
I even had one person. I forgot who exactly told me, but they're like, hey. Have you heard of this wrestler named Stephen Flow? He's wrestling in, like, the indies. I think it was Victor that told me about that.
Is it Stephen Flow? Is that his name? He's he's a no named wrestler. He is doing those events that are in, like, a high school gym. Yeah.
His name is Stephen Flow. He's doing a Pearl Jam parody gimmick. Even comes out to a parody version of Even Flow, but people are singing to the song and saying Stephen flow. There's this wrestler named Joe Hendry that became extremely popular for his theme song. If you hear his theme song, it'll get stuck in your head all day.
And so I'm thinking now he sort of had he had, like, this sleek token effect to where Joe Hendry's affecting other wrestlers to change their gimmicks up and maybe come out to a, I don't know, a parody of a popular nineties tune like Evenflo. But if I became a wrestler, you know how much that would suck because, you know, they would if Vince McMahon was my boss and I'm, you know, this, like, buff 6 foot 9 dude, you know, walking into the I had to get I had to get in shape for the for the whole thing because, you know, I wouldn't be one of those fat guy wrestlers. I would have to be, like, you know, on on the juice or whatever. And Vince McMahon was my boss. He would for sure take advantage of my last name being Peach and be like, okay.
We have to call this guy Peaches. And they'll tease about it for weeks saying this guy named Peaches is coming and everyone's, you know, assuming some some either something like Diva or somebody completely different than what I'm exactly and it'd be this whole big joke. I feel like I'd be a funny wrestler for a few weeks, and then I would be, let go after that because there there'd be nothing to do with that gimmick. Oh, here comes Peaches out of Seal Beach, California. Who knows?
Maybe I can come out to the, Peaches song. Not from the presidents of the USA. Not that horrible song. I'm talking about the Jack Black song that's even better. And this right here is your Shot Clock Sports Update.
Less than a week ago, former NFL quarterback Teddy Bridgewater led his alma mater Miami Northwestern to a state title in his 1st year as head coach of the team. Now that the state championship run is over, Bridgewater is looking to possibly, maybe get back into the NFL. Even though he took his last NFL snap on October 8, 2023, he's looking for teams that might be interested in his services. We'll see how this next week and a half, 2 weeks play out, Bridgewater said, might be signing with a team or something and then returning back to coach high school football in February. Norfolk State University in Virginia, they're hiring Michael Vick to be the head coach of their football team.
Vick has never coached football at any level before. He has close ties to the state of Virginia as he played both high school and college football there. Norfolk State, a historically black university, seems to be paying attention to the success of Deion Sanders, who started his coaching career at another HBCU HBCU, Jackson State. And, also, other college football news here, Georgia Southern wanted to make sure that their players graduating this month didn't miss out on celebrating their achievement with their fellow students. The team is in New Orleans for tonight's r and l Carriers New Orleans Bowl against, Sam Houston.
This was a bit of a problem because graduation took place on Tuesday. Luckily, an anonymous donor provided a private jet so that 7 players could attend the commencement ceremony on Tuesday and then return to the team for meetings and bowl activities. That does it for your Shot Clock Sports Update right here on KayBear 101. It's very weird how the holidays are for everyone in the entire world. Like, you get people in radio, these major radio stations that they say, hey.
You know what? Your shows don't matter during this time of the year anyway. Just take a nice long break. Go on a 3 week vacation. But there are also all those people in those in the radio business that just get mysteriously let go during the December month.
And magically, they're out of a job when it comes to the new year, and they gotta spend their New Years trying their best to get employments. And there's people like that. There's people who work in retail customer service during the holidays, and I, tip my imaginary fedora to them because that's a very tough, very tough job. I remember working Christmas Eve at plenty of those types of places, especially Knott's Berry Farm. I was very happy that Knott's was closed on Christmas.
I thought they would have worked me at least 12 hours on Christmas. I would have been so mad, so so mad. I'm glad I I think they're closed? I think. I think almost all places are closed on Christmas except for a handful that I can't really think of right now.
But, yeah, there's people like that, then there's people like, I don't know. There's people like with a variety of situations, especially the delivery drivers out there trying their best to get everybody their packages on time. I was kinda bummed out. I mean, Victor's gift was supposed to show up on Friday, but now I looked at the whole track my package thing, and it says, oh, Saturday, December 21st is when it's supposed to show up. I'm still hoping for Friday, but I doubt it.
I didn't wanna give it to him after Christmas, but I guess I'll I'll have to. But I won't throw a fit online. If you get the wrong package delivered to your house, don't make a whole Facebook post asking about it or just give it to the right person. There have been tons of posts in that Life in Idaho Falls Facebook group about, like, oh, where's my package? These people suck.
Again, I would love to see that whole, like, trade job program or you get to, like if you complain about them online, you then have to experience what they experience during the holidays, that type of thing. It's people who complain about professional sports athletes sucking out there on the field. Get them out there. Get them out there on the football field. See if they can catch a touchdown pass.
I doubt it. K Bear 101. Now I don't consider any gift to be bad at all. I truly appreciate any gift that anyone gives me, even if it's like a quarter. I'm like, oh, sweet.
Thanks. Needed that. I don't care about loose change. Really. I mean, I do care about loose change.
I'll put it in my little bank at home, use it for my Brendan's trip to California fund. I was reading something here about how, like, on average, people receive 3 bad gifts every holiday season. And they're trying to say, well, these gifts aren't just bad. They just go unused. There's a shirt that my sister got me for Christmas, I think, 2 years ago that I have never worn.
It just sits there on my closet because I think I'm too fat for it. If I wore it, I'd be tugging at it the entire day. I'm like, you know what? I need to unlock the ability to wear this shirt. So it sits there to this day in the closet because I don't wanna throw it away.
That's something my sister spent her money on to get me. And I don't necessarily wanna become a hoarder either when I look at my closet. Like, I threw away a bunch of old clothes. I just made sure to keep that shirt. If if any present goes unused, I still appreciate it.
I still appreciate the gifts big time, but, I mean, I don't think I've ever had a gift that's ever gone unused. I think 1 year, my mom got me a shirt that I already had that I just guess I I guess I never wore in front of her. That's about it. I like I said before, I truly appreciate any gift that anybody gets me. It's very weird how all these animals are now getting on the loose.
There's been a ton of stories, animals of animals going on the loose. A loose primate gave San Antonio police a run for their monkey. I like how the that's the first sentence I read. Let them on a wild goose chase. Police called animal care officers to a neighborhood to round up a spider monkey, which had gotten loose from its owner's home.
Officers arrived at the scene immediately began chasing the exotic pet, which jumped over fences, ran across rooftops. A pair of officers eventually captured the monkey, which is illegal to own as a pet in Texas. The owner was only issued a citation. They should have known better. Come in.
Come on now. A spider monkey as a pet? Are you too cool for a dog or a cat or maybe even like a bearded dragon, a tortoise? You're like, no. I'm going straight for the spider monkey.
About darn time this happened. The FTC banning hidden fees for services like Ticketmaster and Airbnb will soon need to post the total price upfront according to a new FTC ruling. The Federal Trade Commission now requires companies selling live event tickets or offering short term housing to disclose the price with fees before checkout. That's utterly amazing. You know how many times I've been let down by an Airbnb for having these ridiculous cleaning fees that they show you afterward?
Like, after you looked at it, go all excited. Like, oh, I can't wait to spend some time here. There's a giant cleaning fee. I loved that place I stayed at in Boise right next to, Boise State. Well, I liked it because there's no football game happening.
If I if there was a football game happening at Boise State that day that I went over there, it would have sucked. Traffic would have been through the roof. It would have been extremely loud by the place, but luckily enough, it was nice and empty. I mean, it was wasn't empty, but emptier than what it would have been if there was a football game there. But there was also, like, a $60 cleaning fee that they put on at the very end for absolutely no reason at all.
Like, I'm a very clean dude, and if I'm staying at somebody else's place, I try my absolute best to have it spotless when I leave so they don't try to get me with, like, oh, you you left a crumb on the floor. That's an extra $20 to vacuum, something like that. You know? It's quite stupid. But I'm glad, finally, something in our favor, especially when it comes to concerts as well.
Wasn't too happy seeing this news yesterday about scientists in California discovering that squirrels hunt. They found out that, that squirrels who usually eat grains, were catching and eating are they called voles? Well, basically, they captured a squirrel with a tiny little rodent in its mouth, and they're like, wait. They eat those? My parents, they have this, well, squirrel they named Pierre that visits them from time to time.
I shouldn't say from time to time. I should say all the time. The squirrel Pierre will go to my parents' backyard door, the screen door there, and just either knock or cling on to it to get their attention to feed the the squirrel peanuts. And they do feed Pierre, and they found out Pierre was a girl after Pierre decided to sprawl herself all around like, all across the, the screen door. And you could see, you know, very obviously, it's a girl squirrel.
And my dad's even petting the squirrel now. I'm like, you guys better watch out. You better watch out. That squirrel might try to hunt, maybe even take a bite out of my dad's and better be careful. Well, it's a very special to Peach Tharone.
Today is National Emo Day. I found out about this at, like, 6:30 this morning. For some reason, my body was like, you know what? It's 5 AM. Time to wake up.
And sure enough, I stayed up even though I was trying my best to go back to sleep, so I log on to Facebook around, like, 6:15. And, Yeah. The first post I see, it's National Emo Day today, December 19th. Still don't know as to why specifically this day Victor assumed that it was because we're getting close to the 1st day of winter, which is this Sunday or this this Saturday. This Saturday.
Yeah. So for the next hour, maybe even 2 hours, I'm gonna be playing emo tracks to celebrate National Emo Day. So today is to peach their own question as well. What is your favorite emo song? And if we have it in the system, I'll try my best to get it on for you.
I lined up all the classics, all the great ones, even ones that you can hear exclusively on alt 101, Idaho's alternative. Call in right now with your favorite emo tracks, 208-535 1015. Happy National Emo Day. Hey, K Bear. Happy National Emo Day.
What's going on? Hey. What's up, boss? Oh, Stuart, what's up with you, man? Oh, not much.
You know my favorite emo song? Is it from death in December? That's one of them. But, no. Your betrayal, but my bullet for bullet for my Valentine.
