The Noon Hour Of Madness & Mayhem can be heard live on KBEAR 101 weekdays at 12pm MST. Viktor and Peaches talk about a wide variety of topics depending on the day and you never know what to expect!
The noon hour of Madness and Mayhem, the podcast. Victor, happy Friday. Yay. We're a week away from Valentine's Day. Oh, thanks for the reminder.
You're welcome. I I actually you know, I think I know what I'll do. I don't think she's gonna listen to this show. Maybe. She listens to noon sometimes, but, I'll probably just get her some flowers.
It's easy. You know? Boom. Boom. Delivery.
Done. Yeah. I gotta get her mom some. Your mom? Yeah.
Three days in three days, it's her birthday. Oh, okay. Send her that selfie with the face tattoo. Happy birthday, mom. You act you act like I have a Valentine or something like that.
Like, your mom? Like, why would I not send my mom flowers? I I I don't know. I I don't think I ever sent my mom anything for Valentine's Day. You know?
That's what Mother's Day is. Make a horrible joke right there. Please don't. But now you're putting flowers somewhere else. Yeah.
That's true. That's true. Sadly, I've probably given my mom more flowers since she passed away than when she was alive. Yep. Give your mom some flowers.
I'm I'm I'm sad I never met her. That's the thing. Oh, my mom was awesome, awesome, man. She was she was the best. You ask anybody who knew my mom, she was, like, the best mom ever.
Mhmm. Everybody loved my mom. And then she had this kid that sucked. She did. She had a terrible one, Jake.
Jake. Your sister might be listening too. Yeah. That's the other terrible child. Amanda.
Call out. She seems incredibly nice. Amanda is really nice. Yeah. Both my brother and sister are really cool.
I'm I'm pretty lucky. I got a good fam. Good fam. I got good kids, good siblings. I just talked about the whole thing, two weeks ago about how, like, the parents parents really do have a favorite kid.
I don't know if they do, but just I I would that said right there, one in five parents have that favorite kid or something like that. It was a whole thing. Okay. And I could I I said easily. My sister's the favorite kid.
Easily. I could believe one in five parents would have a favorite kid. I really don't. I really don't. I can't imagine picking a favorite, but there are a lot of parents out there that, you know, they're terrible parents like Peaches who pick his sister as their favorite.
Just playing. No. That that Jeff and Karen are awesome. Should've. You know, they I would do the same thing if I had a kid as bad as me.
Oh, okay. Alright. Well, if you understand why, then okay. That that's justified. Better looking, you know, acts better.
The whole thing. The whole thing. They were happy to see you go. They'd be sad if she moved away. Well, that's the thing is I wonder what what exactly she's going to do.
I mean, she's a college graduate. She's now, like, house sitting. I'm like, you went to school for this long, and you did all these these hours of homework to just become a house sitter slash kickboxing instructor. Is she applying in her field? I don't know what she's doing.
Oh. They're they're very secretive about her for some reason. Why don't you ask her? I could, but at the same time, I don't think she'll give me a clear answer either. Oh, why don't they want you to know what's going on?
I don't know. It's kinda weird. I was really I was really upset with my parents when I was younger because when I was about, like, 17, they were, like, complaining that I didn't have my license and I couldn't drive myself, like, to and from practices. I'm like, you guys are the reasons why I'm I don't have my license because you're not allowing me to go get get my license. And then I I was like, if if Bailey gets her license at 16, you best believe any car you give her is going to be impounded total because of me with a baseball bat.
I was about to be I was about to trash that car Wow. That they gave her her license at 16. It it it took them forever to finally get me to to finally allow me to get my license. Wow. That that jealousy.
That reminds me of that story. I don't know if you heard on the morning show. There was a am I the jerk story, and, this kid, he heard that his grandma was going to sell her computer to his cousin, and she was gonna do it for a really good price. So he told his grandma, you know, it's too cheap. You know, this is worth a lot more than that.
And then the grandma raised the price on the cousin. Everyone's all mad. And it's like, dude. You know? I I mean, it's a grandma hooking up her grandchild.
Like, settle down, buddy. Right. You know? I don't know. People are weird.
So, Victor, I was sitting here yesterday doing my thing for The Peach Tharon. Mhmm. And the 4PM hour is quite hectic. I'm trying to wrap things up, get things all squared away. I get it.
Jill knocks at the studio door. You know? And she I'm like, oh, what's going on, Jill? She's like, somebody called the front desk to say, why does Khabare keep playing these I don't know what songs she was talking about. I it you know, I was so focused on what I was trying to get done.
Yeah. But, apparently, listeners are now calling the front desk instead of calling us to talk about the playlist. Yeah. Let me inform everybody in case you were unaware. I am to blame for the playlist.
So if you have questions or concerns about it, you contact me. Jill at the front desk has no idea how anything goes with the playlist. She knows what we play, but And I'm, like, the second best. I'm like, I'll leave a post it note for you just in case, like, you know, you're not around and then someone wants to call in at, like, 04:30. But, yeah, I mean, if you have any questions, complaints, complaints, concerns, call call me and Peaches.
We're glad to talk about it, and, we can actually address the issue. Or if we're not here in the studio, you can always just message us on social media, email us directly, that type of thing. Yeah. It was just silly because Jill's, like, getting calls about the playlist, and she's, you know, doing her thing at the front trying to tidy thing you know, tidy things up. She's extremely busy.
Yeah. Thursday is one of her, busiest afternoons. So, yeah, just hit us up. I mean, we get those kinda calls often enough, and I love it when people call and complain. I like to chat it out with people and explain how things work.
And we're not gonna, like, roast you on the air at all. We're just gonna talk about it, but it's not gonna be like, that's what I think listeners are afraid of. They're afraid we're gonna do something to the like, play it more so, I think, or I don't know. I mean, we're if if you look at how we interact with people, we're always nice. Like, even yesterday, a coworker was like, woah, Victor, getting a little bit political in the comment section on Facebook.
And I was like, well, yeah. I'm like, but I didn't attack anybody. They're like, well, yeah. I know. I'm like, that's how discussion should work.
Definitely. Nothing wrong with a discussion, you know, and I I wouldn't attack people even if I think they're complete lunatics. You know? I would still try to engage in a normal conversation because that's the best way to resolve an issue or at least reach an understanding. You know?
No. When Victor argues with me, he calls me the idiot. That's right. That's You big you big moron. Please leave me alone.
I'm I'm happy with your crap, PJ. The noon hour of madness and mayhem. I am Peaches. I am Victor Wilt, and I am fog brained, Peaches. So when you walked in today, you saw what I did in the studio to, welcome lieutenant Crane.
I posted a video of it on Instagram with the police lights in the studio. Now I discovered in the last year that my old man brain has decided it doesn't like flashing lights and strobe lights. So I'm definitely feeling it after that little bit of time in the studio, but it could also be because last night at my house, I was dialing in some, some lights in my living room and getting them all synced up to to music. Check this video out here. And so last night, this is what I sat and punished myself with in my living room.
I'm a a glutton for punishment. Look at what my living room Oh, geez. Like now. I'm sure the cats are going wild. Dude, Lucy went completely insane.
I was bumping at, like, M and M and stuff at extremely high volume. And, yeah. It's it's wild and up in there. Your poor neighbors. Yeah.
So I I love flashing lights. I feel like a a 12 year old, you know, as I continue to go about decorating my home. Like, there's no need to have that kind of lighting in your living room. I'm trying to, like, make mine more mature. We're going opposite directions.
I'm getting rid of all the kitty stuff. And it was not kitty, but, like, kids stuff and I don't know. There's a bunch of stuff that I have. Like, my parents have got got me this Easter basket, like, a few years ago. And they put in, like, this, like, plastic basketball hoop, and it's at the bottom of my movie storage.
I'm like, do I really want this sitting here? And it's holding all the baseballs I've thrown out for checkers games. Okay. I'm like, do I really want these baseballs too? Like, they're not worth all that much, are they?
I I don't know. I mean, maybe if down the road, one of those players ended up becoming a big star. Well, they're not signed. They're just stuff that I think. Oh, they're just baseballs you threw out.
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you might Maybe if I get big enough, you know, to to big time, I can sell them on eBay. That's right. You sign them and then sell them and make make money off yourself.
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. As I continue rolling along, it just gets more and more childish in my home. And, I seem to like it more and more, which is why I always encourage listeners.
Like, you don't need to have a house that looks like, you know, the Zillow listings and live, laugh, love on the wall and a nice picture of flowers. Like, it's your house. You can get stupid with it. I'm getting as stupid as I can. I'm I'm kinda running out of, stupid ideas.
I don't know. I'm really digging that modern look now. Alright. Something about it. Paint everything gray?
No. Not gray. Like, white or black, you know, and then just I don't know. The modern look, I I like the I look at Laguna's Hill Laguna Hills houses, and I see those and go, man, that looks really nice. I kinda like that.
Yeah. I mean, I I can appreciate the fancy coastal homes and things like that. But, like, if I was gonna build a home, it would be a a weird house for sure. And I'd I'd like lots of the intricate woodwork like you see in the old Victorian homes and things like that. We've talked about this before.
Weird wallpaper. See, wallpaper is a thing of the past. Get rid of that entirely. Yeah. I've every time well, not every time, but a lot of times on Zillow gotten wild, I love those houses that they're like, look at this.
What is wrong with these people? The absolute worst, the dumbest thing is the exposed brick. For some reason, that's, like, glorified. Yeah. I I'm not huge into exposed brick either.
Gesundheit. Thank you. You're you're welcome, Peaches. What I don't like is exposed, like, rock or when they build a house around like a tree or something, and you've got the tree in the In the middle of the house? Yeah.
Anything I don't know. It just seems like you're letting bugs in. You know, like, I have zero plants in my house. No plants anywhere because they always get bugs. You know?
And I don't like bugs in my home. So no plants. I think Zed, the DJ, there's a YouTube channel I follow called Architectural Digest. Mhmm. It's a tough word to say, architectural.
Architectural. And so they they explore celebrity homes. The celebrities will show them Mhmm. What what exactly is in there. And me and my friend, Krile, will sit there and just roast the entire house because some of them are just downright dumb.
Yeah. Down you can tell these celebrities are a little wonky. That might be a good idea for some, online streaming. If I go live on, TikTok, check out, celebrity homes, or weird homes. Oh, I would love to join you on that.
It'd be fun. See if I, see what I think about some of them. Because I guarantee my taste is way different than the average person's. The the weirder, the better. You know?
David Harbour had a weird apartment in New York or something like that. And you can tell he's a he he he's definitely not like the character he plays in Stranger Things Ah. At all Yeah. Or heck boy. You know?
Heck boy. He's he's just a a hippie type of guy. Yeah. Like, you've seen, Bam Margera's house. Right?
Yeah. Yeah. Like, to me, that's cool. You know? I I dig it.
It's he's got, like, some kind of a farm, and he I I don't know. He he made his house just crazy. And I I dig it, man. I know Demi Lovato's house is very weird. Tara Delavigne's is extremely weird.
Yeah. I remember you showing me some videos of hers. The slide that she has in there. Yeah. Like, if you had all the money in the world, I mean, you could just go wild.
Just go wild with it. Yeah. I mean, when I was house shopping, I went for the most, different house I could find. You know? It's it's not like that crazy or anything, but it was just very different from everything else, that was in my very low price range at the time.
So And Robert Downey Junior is like a windmill home, something weird. Windmill home. Yeah. Yeah. I think I'd go for, yeah, something Victorian esque, but, you know, all modern or like a castle, like something just stupid.
I'll I'll just send you Rick Ross's one. That's that's even worse. It's, like, 256 acres in Florida or something like that. Oh, wow. And he you can tell he barely explores the house.
He just lives in one site one little room, probably does meetings in another, and about it. Well, yeah, you don't really need a gigantic house. Like, even my house, you know, my basement, I don't go in it super often unless I have people over or something like that. Did I send you that article about Bill Gates? About how he's downsizing his house because he doesn't he doesn't want the mansion that he has anymore and has 28 bathrooms or something like that?
Yeah. That's just unnecessary. Why would one nerd need 28 bathrooms? He's divorced. Yeah.
He's probably living by himself. His kids are all grown up. Yeah. That I I don't know. I some people you would get lonely, I would think, in a house that big and empty.
Like, you've been in this building when there's nobody here. Oh, yeah. It's weird. He probably has cleaning staff. I know that for a fact.
I shouldn't say probably. He probably has a a chef Yeah. Cleaning staff. So there's probably people around. Around a waiter not a waiter.
A butler type guy, maybe. Maybe an assistant. Yeah. But even my house, you know, if I didn't have kids that come visit or family that comes and stays, I'd I'd probably downsize because I I don't really need the basement level. I use all the rest, you know, the the Main floor and the Top floor.
My apartment becomes too expensive. I might need to take over the basement. Well, if I ever need a roommate, I'll charge a premium. I'll I'll pay you money to to get out of the the crappy apartment I'm currently in. Wrapping up the noon hour of madness and mayhem.
Victor, I saw a post yesterday of a person once again freaking out on life in Idaho Falls on Facebook No. Talking about how everybody from that works at the INL now has to return full time back to the the office, if you call it that. Okay. I mean, I've seen a lot of discussion regarding that. But there was one guy freaking out saying, hey.
If you're wanting to buy a house, buy it now because all these workers are coming back, and they're gonna buy property here in Idaho and make things even worse. And I mean, how many out of state people are working for the INL? I I don't know. I mean, I would assume most people, even if they're working remote, they're probably in the area. Right?
I'm assuming. I mean, I I don't know, so maybe there are a decent number, but maybe if you make enough money, you'd move from wherever to here. But I Maybe most of them will quit too. Like, that's something a lot of remote workers are doing. Yeah.
Exactly. There was one girl that I knew from TMZ that she was in the graphics department. And once they went remote, she moved back to where she was from, Detroit. Yeah. And I'm like, why would you wanna move back there?
But, anyway, that's her own thing. But then she quit right after they said, hey. Come back to the office. She's like, no. I'm not doing so.
Yeah. I'm good here. No. Totally. And, you know, honestly, some of these positions, I'm sure, you know, that they're fine to be done remotely.
So I don't know. I think that getting everyone back in the office is more of a political thing rather than a financial, you know, fix. It's making a statement. Like, we're going against remote workers. Yeah.
Because I mean, you would think for even people who are living in Idaho Falls or the surrounding areas, you know, you still have to be bussed out to INL, so they might need to get more buses running, which, you know, gas is not cheap right now. So I think it says here that the the directive impacts 02/1950 current virtual and hybrid employees according to an INL spokeswoman. This is from East Idaho News. Yeah. But it doesn't say how many actually live out of out of the region.
Right? In total, INL has 6,400 employees, and they all have to work on-site is what I mean, the thing is is that we were already growing to begin with. You know? There's tons of people moving here. There's apartment buildings literally everywhere now.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. They're gonna be moving into those places that are, like, $2,000 a month. Yeah. And there was so much housing going up.
I mean, we don't have a housing shortage here, I I would say, you know, just based on looking on Zillow. Now, you know, if more people start buying, here's what I predict will happen because we're entering spring and springtime's when people start buying houses and moving anyway because nobody wants to do it during winter. Of course. I bet we'll start seeing people blame because of posts like that, INL employees. Not the Californians anymore?
It'll probably be the Californians who do you know, we're working remotely. I mean, I've been here now four years, and, magically, I'm still one of the newer people in the area. Yeah. Yeah. I And I'm I'm I'm in an apartment.
I'm not buying a house. Yeah. I'm not taking up the housing market. Well, and And I'm in one of the credit apartments in the quote, unquote, ghetto side of town. That's right.
Peach is in the ghetto. So I'm really not, you know, a part of the problem here. No. And, I mean, honestly, you you can't even blame the out of staters. People are buying and selling homes here.
And if I was gonna sell my house, if somebody offered me a ton of money for it, why wouldn't you take it? You know? Where would you go after that? Where would I go after that? I don't know.
I mean, I don't plan on selling my house because I can't afford to buy another one even if I sold it for a very high premium. Like like if some guy said, hey. I'll give you $800,000 for your house right now. Oh, so so I had, like, a big fat chunk of money in the bank? Yeah.
I think I'd move to Corvallis. Corvallis, Oregon. That's where I wanna move. You know, if I could move anywhere, that's where I would wanna move. So you would quit here and then go there?
Yeah. I don't know what I'd do there, but, I really like that town. It's very similar in size to Idaho Falls, Pocatello. It's a college town, but it's, you know, about about an hour from the Oregon Coast. I couldn't see you doing anything else but this.
Well, in see, in Corvallis, they don't really they have, like, some kind of a public radio station or something. I think in Albany, which is one of the other cities that's close by, they might have a handful of radio stations, but I think most people listen to the radio stations out of Eugene there maybe. I I don't know. So, yeah, if I if I had the bank, that's that's where I'd move because it's, like I said, about an hour from the coast. But you're over the, the mountain range, so you're still in the coastal area where you don't get a lot of snow, mild winters, mild summers.
You know, you get a lot of rain, but I'll take rain over snow any day. I mean, we deal with the gloomy skies around here for about six months out of the year. So, you know, I'm always taking vitamin d anyway. I can deal with the, seasonal effective stuff. Yeah.
I think I would move to either back to California or something that doesn't have a winter at all. Yeah. You know? I just I just don't wanna deal with it. And if you know, the only other place I could think of that I really like is Sedona.
You know? I I think I could go for that. I like Phoenix, but I I haven't tried to experience a full summer in Phoenix. Taren says it's great because, you know, it's like winter here. You just don't go outside.
You hurry, you know, from your vehicle to wherever you need to be, But you also don't have to do a bunch of, shoveling and getting out and dealing with, the weather. No. You know? It's just really hot. You just go on, turn on the AC Yeah.
Drink something cool. You know, people don't have lawns there. You don't have to get out and mow the lawn. But all you have to know is that the AC malfunctions Well, then you're gonna have a bad then you're dead. So you're gonna have a bad time.
That's the thing. Winter, the the heater turns off. You just put on more layers. Yeah. The summertime in Phoenix, if you have an AC that breaks, you're dead.
I guess you fill up the tub. Right? Your bathtub. You go to the local library. Yeah.
Okay. There's always that option. You go somewhere else. And I would assume that working in HVAC, there's a, you know, plenty of people who will get out. Or I was gonna say working in HVAC's probably a pretty good business to be in in Phoenix.
It's probably not too hard to get somebody to fix your AC. Imagine installing that on the outside in the Phoenix heat. Gotta get up in those attics. Imagine being a cement worker. Well, in in Phoenix, they don't even have, like, regular air conditioning in most places.
They have refrigeration. They work in, slightly different ways. Like, AC, it pushes hot air out of your house. Like, if you stand outside of an air conditioner, it's, you know, pulling it I don't know the scientific way it works, but it's pushing hot air out where refrigeration, there's no air transfer like that, I guess. So it's more efficient for super hot climates.
So that might be easier to install than, like, your standard air conditioning system. I I don't know, though. But it seems like a good business to be in there. Anyway yeah. Stuck here though, peaches.
I I can't imagine me moving anytime soon. Yeah. I could not imagine doing this without you here. Well, hopefully, I haven't made the bosses mad recently. It would be weird to deal with Jade just by myself.
Yeah. And would I still be the afternoons, or would I still let them would they be like, you know what? Takeover mornings or something like that. I don't know. I don't know what they do either.
Hard hard to say, but I I don't have any plans to move unless I win the lottery. If all of a sudden there's one day I just don't show up and, you know, I just like, I quit. I'll just be here like, oh, he did it. He won the lottery. He finally won that lotto.
Yeah. And, I wouldn't ask for any money. I'd be like, dude, how's it going? How you doing? Let me see the new place or something like that.
I would just ask, like, send me pictures of things you buy. Yeah. Look at all this junk. Check out my Dolce Gabbana fridge. Yeah.
I would have to come visit and see that. For sure. The noon hour of Madness at Mayhem is a production of Riverbend Media Group. For more information oh, wow. It's swallowed my spit wrong while I was still talking.
That's funny. Alright. Okay. Where was I? Oh, for more information or to contact the show, visit riverbed media group dot com.
