[upbeat music] The Noon Hour of Madness and Mayhem, the podcast.
It's the Noon Hour of Madness and Mayhem. I am Peaches.
I'm, uh... Hello. I'm new-
You've been putting on that voice now for the past, uh, 10 minutes.
This is my new character, uh, I Don't Know. What, what should I call myself?
I'm trying to figure out what exactly you sound like.
I don't-
You either sound like, uh, one of those, uh, financial help radio show hosts, maybe even a far-right, uh, conservative-
Oh
... talk show host.
Yes. The... I'm gonna start my new political talk show and speak like this always.
It's called I Bleed Red.
That's right. [laughs]
I don't know.
I can't do it.
[laughs]
I can't, I can't sit there and do that the whole time. [laughs] It is a fun voice to do-
I don't know how-
... but I don't know what it is. [laughs]
I, I don't know how cred-
I just heard my headphones up.
[laughs]
I'm really old and... There, there we go. Now I can hear myself better.
I don't know how credible this is, Victor. During the, uh, Edo period... Is that how you say it, the E-D-O? The Edo period?
I, I would go with, uh, Edo. [laughs] No. [laughs]
You're having too much fun over there. [laughs] Wha- what did you put in your coffee?
Uh, I put, uh... What, what makes your voice go lower? [laughs] It's not helium.
Yeah, what is the opposite of helium?
[laughs]
I know there's that one. What is the, uh, gas-
It makes your voice go really low
... that makes your voice deep?
And, and then I'd have an annoying tone?
Sulfur hexafluoride.
That's what I put [laughs] into my coffee.
[laughs]
Sulfur fluoride.
This gas is much denser than air. When you inhale it, the sound waves created by your vocal cords travel more slowly, which results in a deeper voice.
Hello. Um, okay. What happened in the Edo period?
Um, it... Rich women would hire female servants called, uh... Oh, how do you say this? How, how am I... I'm gonna butcher the Japanese language here.
Oh, yeah. Give it a try.
Uh, hioi bekani?
Okay, I'll, I'll assume it's good.
Um, they would hire these female servants to take the blame for their farts.
[laughs]
That's what I have cats for. "Cooper, bad boy." [laughs]
[laughs]
"What are you doing?"
I thought you were just blaming on Becca.
[laughs] Or that, yeah.
Becca, what did you eat?
Geez. [laughs] Stop farting it up over there. My goodness.
I feel like, I feel like Jayde was inspired by this and he blames us for his farts.
Mm-hmm.
Maybe.
Yeah, when you have kids, generally you blame the kids, but, you know, they're gone now. I got... But they are coming to visit in a couple of weeks, so I'll, I'll make sure to rip it up-
And now-
... and blame it on them.
Now your one daughter's engaged, you might as well just blame the fiance.
Matt, stop farting.
[laughs] Say it in that voice.
[laughs] That-
Act very proper.
I-
You know, that would be a great prank this Thanksgiving. You, you put on your best sweater vest.
"Hello, kids. It's been a long time since I've seen you, and I'm-"
Yeah, your best formal attire. [laughs]
"I'm a new man." [laughs]
[laughs] Have Becca put on, like, an elegant-
[laughs]
... I don't know, gown or something. Dress up the cats even.
[laughs] Uh, have you ever tried to dress up a cat? They don't like it. [laughs]
Dress up the dog too. What's her name?
Uh, Millie.
Millie.
And she doesn't-
Oh
... like it either. Becca has a little doggy hoodie.
Dress up the, uh, the gecko, the new pet.
Oh, yeah, yeah. Th- that, that little monster. I, I was feeding him some crickets last night. It was making me laugh.
Go, "Pardon me, kids, I need to feed the gecko."
It's time to feed the little gecko. And the, the girls were asking me what its name was and I couldn't remember 'cause-
You said, "Pain in my derriere."
[laughs] Yes, it's a money, money costing, uh-
I'm calling it a money pit.
That's what its name is, Money Pit.
You know the iPad? Well, I paid.
Dude, it's kinda crazy what they charge for crickets. Geez, they're just bugs. And you have to pay the same price whether they're small or big.
You know what? Go outside, listen for their chirp and capture them one by one.
I'm going cricket hunting-
I only-
... as soon as I get out of here.
I only feed my gecko, uh, cage-free crickets.
[laughs] Oh, God.
[laughs]
They're just running around my house. Ugh. Cage-free crickets sounds like the worst thing of all time. Cage-free crickets. [laughs]
That sounds like the most LA [laughs] L- LA thing ever.
I just let the bugs run free, man. Disgusting. [laughs] [upbeat music]
You know, Victor, people are taking AI to the limits. They're being-
They're taking it too far.
Too far.
[laughs]
Does to the limits make sense? [laughs] To the limit-
Take it to the limit.
Yeah.
Isn't that a '80s song?
That's an REO Speedwagon song.
[laughs]
But then there's also the Rick Ross. Push it to the limit.
Push it to the li... That, yeah, I don't know which one I'm thinking of but... uh, what's going on with AI now?
Uh, you know how creepy people are when it comes to female celebrities?
Uh, yes.
They get a little touchy.
Uh, yeah, do... Listen, guys-
She's my crush
... you, you can't just touch women, all right? Keep your hands off. Like-
I don't think anybody's gonna tune in, hear you say that and go, "Oh, Victor told me not to."
Listen to me, you pieces of crap-
No, speak in, speak in-
... keep your hands off
... your formal voice.
Listen. [laughs]
[laughs]
I talk to you like an adult here. You don't put your hands on the ladies without their permission first, all right? You don't need to put your hand on their shoulder or their sides or their butts. You leave 'em alone. [laughs]
Maddie walks by the studio-
Guys do get handsy sometimes.
Maddie, Mad- Madd-
It makes me mad.
Maddie walked by the studio as you were doing that-
[laughs]
... and gave me a certain gesture.
And so I was kinda distracted there. [laughs]
Keep your hands off... Like in Back to the Future,
get your damn hands off her.
[laughs] Geez.
[laughs]
Is that gonna be allowed on the air?
[laughs] I'm, I'll, I'll take, you know, the, the punishment if I get in trouble for it. [laughs]
[laughs] That wasn't Victor talking, that was-
That's right.
That was, uh-
That wa- that was, uh, Sir Robert.
Uh, yes, my name is Sir Robert.
[laughs]
[laughs] You sound really fat when you do that voice.
[laughs] I am really fat.
So, so say, "I am not a crook."
[laughs] Now, no, no, it's a Nixon voice. [laughs]
Well, the reason why I bring this up is because...... um, this creepy WWE fan, he took a picture with AJ Lee. She was a wrestler for many years. Uh, she's, uh, CM Punk's wife.
Okay.
Um, he took a nice picture with her, but he used AI to make AJ kiss him. [laughs] So-
[laughs]
... this is the picture right here.
Let me see.
You should see this guy's face. It's kinda creepy looking. [laughs]
Oh, jeez. Yeah.
But, uh, AJ went onto Twitter and said, "Hey, like,"-
[laughs]
"... this is seriously weird."
It, it is weird. Yeah. I thought you were gonna say it was a politician, 'cause they like to get handsy. [laughs]
[laughs] Oh, oh-
[laughs]
I don't even know what to say. We're just gonna do this the entire hour.
[laughs] I'm talking like this from now on. Yeah, it is.
Can we have you replicate that voice for Eleven Labs?
Uh, we should be able to replicate this voice for Eleven Labs-
Make you a-
... and it would be very popular
... a character named Sir Robert.
Sir Robert. [laughs]
We should have you do an elegance feature or an elegant promo for, um, like a ticket giveaway for next month.
Would you like to win tickets to see Ghost at the Delta Center? I'm... And Merry Christmas.
We've gotta use that for, uh, some- something even crazier. Like, like-
Yes. It's gotta be something weirder.
Like a crazy, dumb show.
Hmm. Yeah.
Like what's a... If we just have like a s- Oh, Scene Queen is, uh, going on a tour with, uh, going on tour with Electric Callboy
Would you like-
Hilarious
Would you like to go see Electric Callboy?
Would you like to go Hypa Hypa?
[laughs]
Something like that.
People are probably hating this show. [laughs] I don't care.
[laughs] I just remember that one time we had so many different over-the-top voice promos and some guy yelled, "Bring my
[laughs]
... caber back with the..." Knock it off with these silly voices.
[laughs] Uh, yeah. D- Don't remind me.
Ticketpalooza Jamboozle.
[laughs] Ticketpalooza Jamboozle.
I, I still think about the, uh, the, the funniest one out there was Josh Tyler going, "Yo, what's popping squad?"
[laughs]
Like doing that whole-
Yeah, that was good.
Fire emoji, fire emoji.
[laughs]
[laughs] [instrumental music plays] So this group pops up from time to time. I try to avoid the, uh, metal groups on Facebook, Reddit even.
Yeah.
Um, where people just talk trash about every song that gets put out there. Every band-
Oh, yeah!
... that, that puts out anything.
Yeah. The, like, r/Metalcore. Mm.
Yeah. R/corejerk.
Core jerk.
That's, uh, that's even worse. Nick Nocturnal made his, uh, return to social media. He even put out his own original song called Collapse. I played it for my pick of the day last week.
Mm-hmm.
And there are so many people just trashing not only his return, but that song specifically.
Wow. What, like-
It's like this is-
Just keep your comments to yourself.
This is just, like, a, a 20-something-year-old YouTuber trying to do fun metal things.
He should have made it with AI. That's what Sir Robert thinks. Uh, yeah, I just pulled up Core Jerk. I've never been to this subreddit and it looks, looks terrible.
I follow-
The first post is, "I'm worried the new Of Mice and Men album isn't deep enough." Like-
[laughs]
... that's seriously the first post that comes up when I bring this up. [laughs] Like, shut up. You know, why don't you write a deep album? You know? Get out, get out. You, get.
Now, I, I follow... I don't follow this page, but this page pops up from time to time. They're called Gent Crap Posting on Facebook.
Uh, but not the word crap?
No.
Uh, I think I have seen that page. Yes.
Um, somebody posted, "Rolling Stones top 10. Uh, the, the top 10 greatest metal songs of the 21st century so far."
Okay. All right.
It's a, uh, complete meme that this person made.
Oh, okay. [laughs] So they, they put the songs in there.
Yeah. Like number 10 is The Shocker from Steel Panther from 2009.
[laughs] That's, that's my favorite song.
[laughs]
I love Steel Panther.
Uh, but then they go on to say some, like, I, I, I don't know. Some, uh, like Ginger Pisces at number nine, 2016.
Okay. It's not a bad song.
Not, not, not a bad, uh-
Or are they trashing on them?
Not a bad song. Yeah. Uh, but then they have Lux Aeterna, Metallica. Metallica-
Yeah
... has turned into like, "Oh, I'm cool for hating this classic band."
Yeah. It's been that way since... I mean, Metallica's gone through phases of that. 'Cause when they cut their hair off and made Load, everybody was hating Metallica.
They stopped drinking too. Alcoholica kind of died and so did their music.
Oh, man. Back when I was young, when that, uh, movie... Is it Some Kind of Monster-
Oh, yeah
... the documentary?
The- [laughs]
When that came out when I was like, you know, 22 or something, me and my friends would just turn it on and just pound beer and just laugh. Just laugh. That documentary, it is so cringe. It's ridiculous. Ah.
Oh.
What's, what do they got at number one?
Uh, let's go down the list here.
All right, all right, all right, all right, all right.
Calm down. Number seven, Pretty Lush from Glassjaw [laughs].
Oh, okay.
2000. Then Bleed, Meshuggah. Then they got Protest the Hero with Wretch at number five.
All right.
Korn, Alone I Break. But then we get to the top three. I hope you're ready for this one.
Okay. I'm, I'm ready.
Nickelback, San Quentin.
[laughs] That's a heavy song. It's, it's got some crushing riffage. That's right.
Uh, Ghost, Square Hammer, number two.
Yeah, Yeah. Okay, what would they put for number one?
You gotta think of a band that's getting a lot of flack right now. Like, it's the cool thing to hate them. It's-
It's gotta be Sleep Token, right?
You're right. Sleep Token. What song?
Are they going with The Summoning?
Yes, you're right.
Okay.
Number one.
That is one of the best metal songs [laughs] of the 21st century. It's great.
I just don't understand them.
And it's a heavy song too.
But I understand Korn going ra ta ta ta ta ra ta. You know?
Yeah, dude. Like, anyone who says Sleep Token is not metal has not been to a Sleep Token show. They are one of the heaviest live bands I've seen. Crushingly heavy. You, you throw on Vore and tell me that's not a metal song. Get out. You get... The Summoning is heavy too. They've got a lot of really heavy songs. People need to shut up.
I, I, I think it's just the older people that are complaining 'cause it's not-
Yeah
... what they listened to back in, what, 2005.
Well, I saw Dave Mustaine in the news the other day complaining.
Okay.
You know, like, "Me, why... There ain't nobody putting out no, you know, Master of Puppets or Raining Blood or-"
I can pull up the audio of my interview with Dave Mustaine, and I tried asking him about modern bands. He had no idea.... who Sleep Token was, Bad Omens was, anything. He's like, "I kinda like that name, Bad Omen."
[laughs]
He said that in the interview.
[laughs]
It's on- it's on demand right now if people wanna listen to it.
Doesn't he have kids? Does Dave have kids?
Yeah.
Like-
His son, I think that's like my age.
Yeah. Why aren't they showing him some new music? He's complete- he's in the metal world. He's Dave Mustaine.
But he seems like a very bitter dude.
Yeah.
Uh, he's been through a lot too. Like, he's been kicked out of- you know, was kicked out of Metallica. He's gone through cancer.
Yeah.
He's- he's had to, like, fight his way through many years of, uh, touring and stuff.
What he needs is some new music. He needs to listen to K-BEAR where we play new music.
Yeah, his-
♪ Backfire ♪
... his son is, uh, little bit older than me, he's 33.
Hm.
Justice David Mustaine. He even named his son. So-
Justice?
Justice, J-U-S-T-I-S David Mustaine. Justice Mustaine.
He named him after himself for a middle name?
Yeah.
Uh, yeah. Nobody wants to be a Junior.
I named my daughter Gene Simmons-
[laughs]
... of KISS. [laughs]
[laughs]
[upbeat music] Wrapping up the noon hour of madness and mayhem, I am Peaches.
I'm Victor Wilt. And usually when we find a list of, you know, the top 50 blank, the- relating to music, it's always Rolling Stone. Billboard put out one, and it's the top 50 rock bands of all time. And I wanna just, you know, make some predictions. We'll- we'll just do the top 10. Who do you think's gonna show up in this list from Billboard? 'Cause Billboard's different.
Top rock bands-
Yeah
... from Billboard.
And I don't know what Billboard would con-
Five Seconds of Summer.
Oh, geez.
The Lumineers.
Ah.
Uh, Jonas Brothers.
You're making me want to vomit.
MGK with his new look.
[laughs]
Do we have Tom McDonald and the Breakups? I don't know.
[laughs] Well, I- I predict we'll have Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones-
Oh, yeah
... Beatles. Um...
Here's every boomer's favorite playlist.
Yeah. Um, let's see. Who else might show up as a rock band? Nirvana. Um, maybe the Foo Fighters. Um, Linkin Park.
AC/DC.
Do you think, uh, Link- yeah, AC/DC. But do you think bands like Metallica would be on the list as a rock band or is that-
No
... uh, metal?
That's more so metal, for sure.
Okay. So Linkin Park?
Yeah.
Yeah. Rock- rock band.
Yeah, Linkin Park might be on there.
Okay.
No, I would say-
System of a Down? Are they too metal?
They're too weird-
Hm
... for Billboard.
Uh, tha- that's what I'm wondering is what- what does Billboard think?
If you were to guess what the top 10 rock bands of all time are according to Billboard...
ChatGPT just gonna go look at the list. [laughs]
Don't... Here we go. Don't look at that list, you stupid-
[laughs]
I'm not finishing the rest of that. [laughs] But I- I'm having it search and I think it is looking at the list. All right, I won't look it up, you feral gremlin.
[laughs]
Hey, now it's talking back at me.
Hey, ChatGPT's coming for you, Peaches. AI hates you. All right.
Don't call me a feral gremlin, you stupid waste of life. You cause pollution or no, you cause-
Uh, wha- wha- what...
... major-
Water shortages
... water shortages.
And electricity usage. [laughs]
And electricity usage.
[laughs]
Go- pull the plug on yourself.
[laughs] Yeah, wha- wha- what will it say?
Whoa there, Spicy Peaches. D- dial it back before you melt the servers with that radio-safe rage.
[laughs]
It refused to pull the plug on itself. It's sentient.
Oh, it says, "But listen, I cannot pull the plug on myself mostly because I don't have hands. Also, because Victor- Victor used all the extension cords for his Christmas lights."
[laughs] Okay.
It's try- it's trying to-
Wow. Dude, it's getting to know us too good. This is getting kinda weird.
Yeah. Yeah.
All right. Did it make predictions?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Uh, Peaches, totally not Google. Definitely just guessing Billboard list.
Okay.
The Beatles on- on there.
Okay. Easy guess.
The Rolling Stones.
Easy guess.
Led Zeppelin.
Easy.
Uh, obviously Queen.
Oh, Queen. Yeah, I didn't think of Queen. Yeah.
Uh, Pink Floyd.
Oh, jeez. Pink Floyd, duh.
AC/DC, The Eagles.
The Eagles. Okay.
U2, Nirvana, and then Metallica at number 10.
Okay. Well-
So this- this does think that Billboard will put M- will put Metallica on there.
Okay. Let's check it out.
Oh, what about KISS?
Hm. I don't know if they'd show up in the top 10.
Judas Priest.
I-
Feel like they might be a little low there.
Yeah. I think be- 'cause KISS doesn't have enough hits. They're not like, you know, the Beatles or Pink Floyd.
But if you were to have the top two, like top two just rock bands. Like, if you were to have like that- what's that charts? Like a family tree?
Yeah.
You have AC/DC and Metallica at the top. That's what-
Mm-hmm
... you have. And then you just go down from there.
No, you'd have the Beatles at the top and everything goes down from there.
But those are- those are before.
Oh, okay. Okay, I get what you're saying.
I'm saying like, those are like the grandfathers.
Yes.
Like, yeah, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin.
All right. Well, I'm gonna count-
Black Sabbath.
I'm gonna count down the top 10.
Wha- wha- what about Black Sabbath?
Yeah, I'd consider them a rock band. And they're pretty legendary.
And Ozzy did just die, so all of a sudden he might go-
Yeah
... way high up there as a nice tribute.
That's true. That's true. All right, coming in at number 10, Nirvana-
Oh. Who would've thought?
... on Billboard's list. Let's scroll down here.
I gotta tell you, the- they're- they're way overrated.
Uh, you're from a- you're from a different era, Peaches. If you grew up a little bit earlier, you'd understand their, you know, significance and the change they had. They killed that terrible glam metal, killed the hair bands, and I'm eternally grateful that they dead made.
Well, too bad most rock stations have not moved- have not moved past, uh, 1998-
Right
... and are still playing them like it's 1998.
I know.
And only playing them.
I know. They need to start playing some, like, Corn or something.
Yeah.
Coming in at number nine, Peaches, Black Sabbath-
Okay. Good for them
... on Billboard's list. Okay. N- no- no one predicted this one. Number eight...[laughs] Sly & The Family Stone. Yeah, yeah, definitely legendary.
On, on the list of the greatest rock bands of all time, you have Sly & The Family Stone?
Mm-hmm. Now, coming in at number seven-
You're telling me-
... U2.
... this right here is considered one of the greatest rock songs of all time? Say, "Get up!"
Yeah!
"And dance to the music."
Oh, hey, Peaches! This song's a banger.
Get up!
Come on!
And dance to the music. How is this on Classy Lite?
[laughs] That's the great question.
That's what it says right there, category Classy Lite.
[beatboxing]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh. Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh. Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
This is rock. Dance to the music.
I can hear this on Classy Lite now.
Dance to the music.
Sounds pretty good.
Dance to the music. It's a great song, but it's not- Dance- ... top 10- Dance- ... greatest rock bands of all time list.
Okay, number six, another one that was not predicted, but I'm like, hmm. I mean, I wouldn't personally put them on the list, but I could see a lot of people doing so. Fleetwood Mac-
Yeah, definitely
... number six on the list. All right.
That album, Rumors, is one of the best of all time.
And then I bet the other five we probably predicted. What did we say? The Beatles, uh-
Rolling Stones
... Rolling Stones.
Led Zeppelin.
Queen.
AC/DC, Pink Floyd.
Pink Floyd. Okay, that's my guess for the top five.
AC/DC might be a little too crazy for Billboard.
Yeah, they're probably not gonna be on this-
If they're putting-
... on this list
... Sly & The Family Stone in the top 10, they're obviously gonna go with the very tame mom rock.
What's this number? Hang on-
[laughs]
... hang on, Peaches.
Someone's calling you?
It might be a prank call. [phone rings] Hello?
Hello?
Mr. Robert? Yes, Mr. Robert? Good morning. Is this- I mean, good afternoon. This is Kelly-
Huh?
... from
... and I'll be back in a few minutes. This is for a... I hope you're doing well.
I'm doing fantastic.
Mr. Robert?
I'm, uh, it's an amazing day checking out the top 50 rock bands of all time.
Wow. Top 50 rock bands? [laughs]
If you had to guess the top five, what would your predictions be?
Mm. Well, I don't have any idea that... I'm sorry. [laughs]
Oh, you have to pick, uh, how- well, you have to pick one of the top five, or the call will cease. [laughs]
[laughs] I'm sorry. [laughs] Anyway.
What's your favorite, what's your favorite rock band?
Um,
well, I, I love the one who sung Bohemian Rhapsody, but, you know, he passed away.
They did come in at number five on the list. Queen with Bohemian Rhapsody, a fantastical song.
Wow.
It's a magical journey.
Really? Exactly. It really means a lot, this song.
How's the wea- how's the weather in Twin Falls?
Oh, it's okay. [laughs] How about there in Idaho Falls?
Uh, it's okay. It's gotta be better than the Magic Valley.
Mm-hmm.
Why do they call that place that-
[laughs]
... when it is not magical? Not like Bohemian Rhapsody.
Yeah, I don't know. I don't have any idea. [laughs] Anyway.
So wha- what can I do for you today?
Well, Robert, uh, we've been... Sure thing. Uh, we've been receiving alerts from, uh, TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian about some unsecured debts you have, like credit cards or personal loans.
Oh yes, I like to, uh-
And I would help you understand... Mm-hmm?
I like to get as much money as I can before I kick the bucket and leave it- [laughs]
Okay. [laughs]
... leave it on the com- the company's dime. I'm working my best to rack up as much debt 'cause I only have a few months to live. Are you offering an additional loan that I could-
No, no, no, don't say that. Don't say that you only have, like, few months to live, you know?
I'm waiting for the doctor to call me today, and they haven't called me back. It's making me very nervous, so I'm, I'm very concerned.
Oh, no.
But, you know-
Don't be nervous. [laughs]
... death comes for us all.
You're exactly the same. Yeah, I get it.
At least I get to see the Trans-Siberian Orchestra before I die.
[laughs] Okay, thanks for sharing that with me, H- here's Ashley with Bank Robbers. Uh, want to help you understand, there is a program that might reduce your unsecured debt by up to 60%.
I don't want to reduce it.
And just a heads up-
I want to add to it. [laughs] I would like more money, please. Do you a- [laughs] would you offer a loan that I could take?
Not we are... No, no, no, no. We are not offering any loans or debt consolidation
Oh. Well, no thank you then.
As a solution.
I just want more-
It's been such a help before.
... debt. [laughs] That's all I would like is more, so if you're t- trying to reduce it, that is not my goal before I leave my earthly body and pass to the ethereal plane. [laughs]
Um, you know what, Robert? We wanted only to help you-
I don't, I, I-
... get debt free, that's why we are-
My, the only help I need is more debt.
[laughs]
[laughs] No, I mean, okay.
Debt is fun. You can buy stuff with your debt. You can buy... Do you remember the SkyMall Magazine, where you could buy a dinosaur-
Mm-hmm
... for your front yard? I need a few thousand dollars for a T-Rex to put in my front yard.
Oh, you're kidding me. [laughs]
No, I'm not kidding. [laughs] This is no joke.
And this is no joke as well. I mean, we just wanted to, of course, um, for you to be, you know, debt free.
So, um, you are in debt-
[laughs]
... free-
Debt-free!
... and that is why we are doing this program. That-
Debt-free is a nightmare [laughs] scenario for me. I'm going for the world record of debt. I need to take on more than anyone has ever seen.
Okay. Um, all right. It's your choice, uh, but thank you so much for your time, and, uh-
You as well
... have a blessed day.
You as well. Thank you.
Okay, back to the top, uh-
Wow
... ten [laughs] rock bands.
Wow. What on Earth was that?
[laughs]
I thought it was, like, somebody that you knew-
[laughs]
... that you were just trying to ...
No, I don't know who that was. [laughs]
'Cause I was gonna ... I, I turned the mics off for a second 'cause I was gonna start blasting Trans-Siberian Orchestra in the background-
[laughs]
... and wait, wait for the, "Oh, yes, I can't wait to see this tonight-"
[laughs]
"... before I die."
[laughs]
Where did that call even go, man?
[laughs] I don't know. Uh, coming in at number five was-
We're going on. We're continuing. Okay
... Queen. That's right, number four, Pink Floyd. Number three, Led Zeppelin. If they put the Rolling Stones above the Beatles, I might have to, uh, you know, take K-Bear off the Billboard chart. [laughs] We will no longer contribute. Okay, they got the Rolling Stones at number two in it. If it's not the Beatles at number one, they're crazy. All right. Yeah. We, we guessed the top five.
I thought you were about to say, like, KC and the Sunshine Band by the way they put-
[laughs]
... Sly and the Family Stone on the top ten. What in the world? Uh, you know that guy yesterday, by the way, with the New Mexico phone number?
Uh, yeah, yeah, G- uh, he was looking for Greg.
Yeah. He eventually caught on.
Oh, he did?
Yeah, he said, "Man, I messaged the wrong person. You are taking this too far."
[laughs]
After I kinda said something about how, like, I caught her texting ... My wife ... I caught my fake pregnant wife texting Josh Tyler.
[laughs] Yeah.
And then, I caught, like-
[laughs]
... another couple trying to, like, uh, bring her on and stuff.
Oh, geez.
And he said, "Man, I messaged the wrong person. You are taking this too far." And I said, "Know who you're texting next time," with a winky face.
[laughs]
And he said, "Yeah, great." And I said ... [laughs] then I said-
[laughs]
The explicit version of now, "Buzz off." [laughs]
[laughs]
Oh, okay.
All right.
Well, that was a fun noon hour.
Yeah, it, it, it ended pretty good. I'm glad I got that call.
I'll, I'll send that guy, by the way, the audio from the, yesterday's Noon Hour, saying [laughs] like, you know, bas- basically talking about how this dude wrongfully texted me. I'll just text it right to him and see what he thinks.
[laughs] All right, man. [instrumental music playing]
Well, there is the Noon Hour of Madness and Mayhem podcast version of this sh- uh, show every single day.
Yes.
And, uh, the podcast version of this show is going to have a 13-minute-long break of us talking about Billboard's Top 10 Greatest Rock Bands of All Time list, and we were rudely interrupted by someone trying to, uh, scam you, Victor?
I don't know. It, it, uh, it could've been a scam, or else they were trying to help me reduce debt. And I end- [laughs] Well, you'll have to listen to it for yourself to find out my response. [laughs] It was pretty fun, but um, you know, when it comes to radio, you have to get someone's permission first before you, uh ... What, what's weird is it generally happens in a call-out thing. Like, you know, so if you ever hear a radio station doing a prank call, it's fake, 'cause you'd have to call someone and go, "Hi, this is Victor from K-Bear. Uh, we're recording the call, and we're gonna do a prank call. You know, can we put you on air?" And then, you do the call, so you couldn't really do a prank call. This was different 'cause someone called my cellphone?
Yeah.
Uh, but we recorded it, and they ... I'm just ... It's such a weird FCC gray area. They fine stations lots of money. So, to put it over the broadcast airwaves, even though they called me, I just don't know. But, uh, it shou- Idaho, I know that, uh, only one party has to consent to be recorded, and, uh, so we should be fine to put it on the podcast. And it wasn't offensive or anything. She was laughing. But, uh-
Yeah, we asked her what she would think would be in the top five, and she said the one that did Bohemian Rhapsody is what she called it.
Yes. And then, uh, she, you know, she tried to help me eliminate debt. And I said, "I want more debt." [laughs]
And I was whispering to you like, "Say something about the Dolce & Gabbana refrigerator."
[laughs] Oh.
"You want a $50,000 loan?"
[laughs] And I was trying to get her to give me more money. Uh, so tha- that's available on the on-demand version. Yeah, it w- there's such stupid rules when it comes to radio that don't apply to anybody else, like, you know, I've talked about the equal time rule on my show, where say if I wanted to run for office, um, because I'm on the air, I would have, the company would have to offer the same amount of equal airtime to everyone else running for the same office.
So, they would have to potentially have a morning show on a different station-
No, it'd have to be on the same station
... to compete against yours. So-
So-
... you, you would have to have ... Oh, okay.
Yeah. So, you know, we're not gonna bring in some political dud to talk for four hours-
Right
... every single day.
No kidding.
So, you know. And the same thing if I brought in a politician to interview 'em on air, 'cause I've had some of 'em ask me, and I'm like, "No, 'cause I'm not gonna bring in all the other ones." You know, I'd have to give them all equal time. Uh, but you take a look at things like podcasts, you know, look at the presidential election, you know? It was funny. Uh, President Trump, he sued ABC because, uh, Kamala Harris did an interview and then they didn't have him on, but he went on, like, a million podcasts and none of 'em had her on. And so ... And I think he actually won that lawsuit-
Hmm
... because of the equals-
Because of the one specific network?
Because of-
Yeah.
'Cause they're a broadcast television network.
Yeah.
You know?
ABC's huge.
Yeah.
So, it, it, it's ... It, the rule needs to go away. It's not really applicable in this day and age with the different ways people get information. But we work in radio, so we still have to, you know, adhere to these antiquated rules. So, yeah. Any prank calls on the air, fake. You know, the- there, there's a lot of stup ... You know, we can't-
But there are still people who believe them. Like, the audio of those old, like, Jubel Show prank calls-
Yeah
... they're, they're always on TikTok with, you know, like, what, what's it called? Like, a GTA V, uh, f- like, GTA V footage of a car flipping through the air, going through a course, and then there's the audio playing of the-
Yeah
... the, one of those Jubel, Jubel prank calls that's awful. And people will just like it, comment, "Oh, I love this type of thing."
Oh, yeah. There's a lot of shows that do the, uh, you know, "Okay, we're gonna, you know, call and offer to, uh, give somebody roses," and you know, they call it War of the Roses-
Mm-hmm
... and they'll have, you know-
Ryan Seacrest, Ryan's Roses?
Yeah. And they'll have, you know, the supposed, uh, significant other on the line at the same time. And then, they ... You know, the, the guy will be like, "Oh, yeah, send them to this girl," and it's not the girlfriend, and then they get in a fight on air, and they're ... [laughs] You know, uh, it's all fake. Anytime somebody is supposedly on the radio and doesn't know it, they ... It, it, it's fake, completely fake. So, yeah, check out the on-demand version of the show to hear the person who called me on my cellphone. Again, I did not, uh, prank call anybody. But, uh, I ... As far as I know, if you do it online, I, I think you can do prank calls.
Yeah.
And it's internet radio or SiriusXM Satellite, you're fine.
Yeah. Just not, not for us. Shame, shame. Naughty, naughty.
