The Noon Hour Of Madness & Mayhem can be heard live on KBEAR 101 weekdays at 12pm MST. Viktor and Peaches talk about a wide variety of topics depending on the day and you never know what to expect!
The noon hour of madness and mayhem powered by Jalisco's, the podcast. Victor, I've been I've been causing a stir on Facebook. Oh, what did you do? It's fun. It it's it's fun at times.
It's distracting. Yeah. I distracted myself a bit the other day with the the radio peeps post. Well, somebody decided to post in the Life in Idaho Falls group just to antagonize some people saying, hey. If you're from California, share your former area code and where you're from, what city.
And I said, 714, shout out to Seal Beach. And there was this one guy that, you know, came up with this stupid poem that was like, Idaho is red, California is blue, something like something along the lines of that. And, his post got, like, you know there's a lot of people that are quiet on Facebook that just like comments that said that they agree with. So a lot of people were liking what he wrote. Idaho is red.
California is blue. If you come from California, don't bring it with you, which, of course, we've emphasized many, many times on the air. How many California Liberals are there that are coming here to change Idaho? I think you might have a button Oh, that right? Say how many liberal Californians I've met in Idaho.
Where is it at? Hold on. I need to find it. Yeah. We haven't played that button in a while.
There it is. You ready for this one? Yeah. This is 0 Mhmm. Point 0.
That's how many California Liberals I've met that have moved here. And so I asked the guy. I'm like, have you met anyone from California that moved to Idaho Falls and have explicitly said they're a liberal and they're wanting to change the state blue? And he just wrote yes. Oh, he did?
He did. I have. Well, he's like people liked my comment about have you met anybody that's been wanting to to to change Idaho? Nobody here does that. I've got a tip for the Californians because I saw another post in the Life in Idaho Falls group, and I thought it was gonna be a dumpster fire like that.
This woman was talking about her cleaning business. Did you see those posts? I think so. Okay. So she's like, hi.
I just moved to east Idaho from California, and I've got this cleaning company. And I don't remember the name of it, but they had a big American flag as the logo, and it was talking about it. It was like freedom cleaning or something. So then she talked about all the, you know, great reasons for moving to Idaho. Wow.
She's an honest worker, and she's very, very patriotic. Yes. So what you gotta do is you need to come in, and you really just need to schmooze all the ideals of the people who are afraid of liberals. I wiped the California. Okay.
I wiped the California dirt off myself. Now I'm cleaning your places. That should be her slogan. Yeah. You know, something like that.
If you just roll in and they're like, I'm moving from California and you don't, you know, put out a bunch of stuff about, you know, how great Idaho is because it's, you know, a very conservative place and, you know, family stuff and blah blah blah. You gotta throw all that in if you don't wanna get because everyone was like her post like, welcome to the area. I was like Exactly. Like, what is happening here? You all hate all Californians.
They just happen to be come in and they, you know, pander a little bit, then it's all good. Well, they come in and they they they sort of prove themselves. Yeah. Yeah. Like, I just I'm just myself here.
That's all that I that's all that I am. Seriously, if if someone knows a California liberal that moved in, I'd like to meet them. You know? I'd love to chat with them because I don't meet enough liberal people around here. All the liberals I know are just people who've been my friends since, you know, I was in high school and things like that.
And, Yeah. It's like one guy even wrote 951. I wrote I won't rob you, I promise, in the comments section. 951? Do you know?
I I don't keep track of area codes. 951 area code. But you told me you had lots of things in area codes. Southern California covers most of Riverside County and partially extends into San Bernardino, California. Oh, yeah.
That's San Bernardino County. San Bernardino. Sketchy. Alright. Well, he's not gonna rob you.
So that's an entirely different place compared to where I was from. Yeah. But, you know, people lump, you know, metropolitan areas into one big thing. I hate to break it to you, but, like, Los Angeles is where the dirt the dirt is. Yeah.
That's where, like, all the the, you know, the I I don't know what how to say it, but it's like the it's the dirty part. San Francisco, same way. Awful, awful place to be. Oakland is even worse than San Francisco. And I've I'm from Orange County.
I've never explored, San Francisco or Oakland, so I can't judge. I've never been in Skid Row in LA. That's a fun place to go. We'll take you there next time you come down to California. I always tell you, you can always come with me and my and hang out with my family and all that.
We can go to Skid Row and I wouldn't be afraid to go to Skid Row. I know you wouldn't. It'd be fun to show you. Yeah. I've did he walking through areas with a bunch of weirdos, I'm not gonna, you know, get attacked.
Okay? Hollywood Boulevard. Yeah. Hollywood Boulevard, I bumped into all kinds of psychopaths on Hollywood Boulevard, and that's a major tourist stop. Definitely.
So but, yeah, you know, where you talk about, like, you know, I'm from Seal Beach. I'm not from LA. It just when you come to these big metropolitan areas, you know, if you don't live in them, everyone's just gonna call it Los Angeles. You know? Like, Long Beach, Los Angeles.
You know? Santa Monica, that's LA. You know? If if it's in that big, huge area where there's tons of people, it's LA, Victorville, LA, and it's way, way away from I just once I hit traffic, okay. I'm in LA.
Yeah. People were asking me yesterday, are your parents okay? Like, they were actually carrying for some Well, there was a tsunami warning. Yeah. In Northern California.
So I had to explain to them San Francisco and that area up there is 12 hours away from my family. Yeah. No. A lot lot of people don't know their, geography, Peaches. But I I'm glad they cared.
I'm glad they reached out to me, but it's it's funny that, like, they just assume California. Oh, Peaches' parents are in trouble with the tsunami warning. Yeah. I saw tsunami warning West Coast, and I immediately was like, oh, jeez. But then I looked at where, and I was like, okay.
And nothing happened? Maddie's alright. And, yeah, thankfully, nothing happened because tsunami thankfully, but you secretly like natural disasters. I like those weird news about that. No.
I don't like the wave. I don't like them, but I like to watch documentaries now. You're cheering on the blue wave going on to California. Come on. I do like a nice blue wave.
I'll tell you what. I do. Victor's got something. I got something. Yeah.
Alright. Well, you and I talked about this off air maybe on the morning show, but, you know, I keep an eye on Reddit, and I see all the hate The Woody Show's getting Oh. In The Woody Show subreddit. I I was about to make a post in there too. I was stirring things up on Facebook earlier, and I almost went, you guys are a bunch of whiny little, and I was gonna put the full word and everything.
And I realized The Woody Show knows me, sort of. Menace knows who I am. Some of the people do. People on staff still know who I am, and my username is my legitimate name. Oh, then they'll know who you are.
Yeah. Then they they they they, for the most part, ignore the subreddit. If I can tell. Yeah. And they just move right along.
That's that's about it. So if I were to go in there and do something cosmic drama, it would have been hard to try to book Menace for the next episode of the podcast that I'm starting and all that, I think. And that's just a and I don't I don't tie my name into anything that I don't want it to be. So it's that's why even storing things up on Facebook, I'm like, hey. You know what?
Let me just not really say anything. I posted about the whole, Spotify not supporting artists post, and there were some people going, dude. Actually, they pay money for bigger bands, and I I I don't wanna get into that argument with you know? It's like, I I don't understand people's logic. They don't know anything about the music business.
They just think they do, and then they start spewing out stuff. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Well, they I heard this or read this, blah blah blah. It's like me arguing with a heart surgeon about the parts of the heart and how it operates and stuff.
You know, there's a lot of people who are, not putting a lot of faith in doctors and scientists these days. Right. So Right. That's not really outside of the realm of, possibilities. But you said you had something.
Sorry. Well, no. I just wanted to let people know. At one point, I did make a k Bear 101 subreddit. Oh, you did?
It has no posts. It has, I think, one member that is me. We're on everything, and we hardly use some of it. Like, I I posted a voting poll in our Discord saying, hey. What days are you guys available to hang out?
Because I might just jump in there and talk with listeners. So if you wanna take a page out of The Woody Playbook, Woody Show, and just level complaint status, maybe Reddit's the place to do it. You know, you go set up your Reddit account, and you can trash us. I for like, we talked about before off the air. The Ravey's exit caused a lot of that.
They don't like change. Hardly anybody likes change. And so when this new lady comes in, no matter how great or awful that person is, they're going to insult that person till they get their original show back, which is not going to happen Yeah. They at all. Yeah.
Shows change over time. And, you know, I don't know what their show's generally like because I haven't listened to a whole show. Well, I I fired it up the other day just to check a little bit out, and they were doing kinda the typical stuff that morning shows do to start the show. Yeah. Here's some interesting factoids.
That's exactly what they'll do. And then Random facts. I'm like, alright. Get that out of the radio prep. That's nice.
They'll spark conversation about it. They'll do the stereotypical stuff, but Woody has this, like, I don't care behavior that I actually really like because he was against the whole Iheartmedia programming ways. The he was about to get fired in back in October of, like, 2014, and he was like, I'm gonna do the show my way, and they end up becoming one of the best morning shows there is in LA because he, you know, keeps it real. You know? I I don't like when radio stations say that, but when they actually do it, that's something else.
Well, I gotta hear him keeping it real then because all all I heard was just, you know, that that stuff, which is, like, standard every radio station stuff. He addressed the whole Ravey thing on the air. Usually, you're told they don't say anything. They mysteriously disappeared. We'll act like nothing happened to them.
Yeah. He actually said, at some point, we'll talk about what happened with her, but right now is not the time. And they they even acknowledged the subreddit sometimes. They they actually told Gina to stop cackling in the background because that was a huge complaint on the Reddit page. So, I mean, they he somewhat keeps track of it keeps track of it, but does he care?
Because, I mean, most people are gonna complain about anything. Oh, yeah. Anything at all. I you know, the the posters in there, they're they're pretty dumb. You know?
From, like, from a lot of the things I was reading in there, and it's like, why don't you guys just go listen to something else? And, usually, Reddit's a place of intelligence, but it comes to radio listeners, sometimes you see them just, again, spew things that don't make any sense. They just think they know something, and then they'll go, oh, okay. Well, that's like the radio subreddit that's filled with a bunch of people who don't know a lot or about radio. Definitely.
Or they're, like, into actual radios. Like, hey. Which one of these should I buy? That's pretty fun, though. I'm like, alright.
Alright. That's cool. I like people who collect weird things like that. It's unique. I I still love r slash bald.
Hey. Should I let it go? It's like some guy with, like, no hair on his head. I'm just like, yes. You should.
Yeah. I still get those posts too. And every one of them, I'm like, what? You don't even need to ask. Look at yourself.
It's like doctor Phil. It's like it's all on the sides, and then he's like, should I get rid of it? Duh. Just shave the rest of it. Like, dude, the top of your head looks like cobwebs.
Get the duster out. Victor, it's the noon hour of madness and mayhem powered by Jalisco's, and we're talking old people again. Yeah. I I thought you were taking a jab at me first because I posted one of these kinda memes the other day. Oh, yeah.
Yeah. On the main page. Yeah. Like, if if give yourself a point for each of these things. And Yeah.
You know? I'm trying to differentiate your posts from my posts, and I'm posting a lot of these, like, Gen z related memes just to, you know, attract the younger audience to get them to follow us and stay up to date with us. And I'm like, we're all old. Yeah. Yeah.
It's a it's a good combo. Good good combo of old and young. Get combine them together. Right. We got something for everybody.
I I mean, the only thing I hadn't done on that list was own a pager. Everything else did you go through that list? Sure. I can go through it right now. Let's see what if there's anything because to me, I was like, these are things I would think most people have done.
Used a rotary phone. Never. Never used a rotary phone? Never. Never never touched 1.
Used a floppy disk. No. What? Not even back in school? A floppy disk?
I mean, maybe in very early on with my old parents' computer. Yeah. Maybe. Actually, you know what? Didn't Taco Bell have those computer games?
Well, those might have been CDs. It might have been discs. They might have been discs. Like CDs. Yeah.
Yeah. Used a typewriter. Never. What? Taking photos with a film camera.
Obviously, I love doing that. Have a CD collection or had a CD collection. Definitely have one of those. Made a mixtape? No.
No. Never made a mixtape? My my parents' computer, they didn't they they had this stuff, but they didn't wanna show me how to do anything. My parents didn't wanna show me how to cook, anything like that. And so I had to learn on my own eventually, and I'm still learning quite a lot of stuff that they didn't teach me.
But, owned a Walkman. I I believe I had an MP 3 circular player that just played CDs. That's not a Walkman. That's just a Walkman's the tape. You know, a cassette tape.
I did I did, like, a little boom box that was made for kids, and I had the whip it or I had the Devo's, little cassette tape. Well, I don't know what album it was, but I put it in there, rewound it. I kept playing Whip It over and over and over again. For some reason, as a kid, I loved that song. Well, it's it's not a terrible song.
Right. But had a VHS recorder. I and I'm guessing they're talking about a camera that records into VHS. That's the way I took it. I think my parents have one of those that I used for a little while there.
Or it could have been, you know, like a dual VCR setup or a VCR that had two slots so you could record from one tape to the other. I had to re Either or. I had both. How to repair a tape cassette with a pencil? See, and I there's a couple ways on this.
There's repairing it with a pencil or potentially having to tape the tape back together. Okay. You know? Yeah. There you go.
Rent A Movie is a blockbuster, obviously. We've had blockbuster plenty of times. Go ahead. I that's the thing too is that a lot of these old people are like, you are peaches. You don't know what Blockbuster is.
It's like they just automatically assume things. It's like, dude, I'm nearly 30. What are you talking about? Played in Atari. See, that's before my time.
I played the GameCube. Yeah. That's crazy. The GameCube was your your start. They played so many systems before.
Crazy how time passes by? Yeah. You kids, man. That's like the same people that go, I can't believe it's Friday. Time passes by.
Yeah. It sucks, especially when you get older, and it just starts flying by. It does. It's crazy. Listen to music on a boom box.
You just said you had a little boom box. So alright. Sent a fax. I think I did to my parents' work, my dad's work when me and my mom teamed up together, did something like that as a kid, and I wrote, like, a little note to my dad, and we both sent it off to him. Yeah.
I used to send tons of faxes. Used Myspace. I couldn't. Unfortunately, I tried asking for 1. This was before Facebook, and my parents were like, no.
We see a couple kissing on their profile. We don't wanna expose you to that, peaches. Yeah. MySpace was real vile. Use dial up to access the Internet.
Yeah. I remember that sound. Okay. Yeah. To start up my parents' computer.
Very bad. I had an encyclopedia. We didn't have them. We just used them in middle school. Oh, okay.
But, like, we didn't we still had access to the computer lab, but they're like, you gotta use the old fashioned encyclopedia for some of this stuff. And Yeah. We had one at my parents' house. I don't know what happened to it. Used a phone book.
Now see, when I was a kid, I was like, I wanna become an actor like those kids on Suite Life on Zack and Cody of Zack and Cody. And, they're like, oh, you gotta look it for the talent agencies in the phone book, so I just went down. We've got a rat in the office. Of time. Sent handwritten letters.
I've done that before plenty of times. Oh, yeah. Love that whole thing. Used a paper map. My parents did.
I never really said, oh, I need to find my direction. Find out where I need to go and pull out a map. Yeah. I don't miss those days. Owned a pager?
No. I haven't I haven't touched 1. Not me either. Wrote a check. No.
I I don't be that guy in the in the the grocery store. I've written shit written checks plenty of times, but Okay. I I hate to be that guy using 1 in, like, WinCo clogging up the line. I only have checks to deal with Idaho Falls utilities. Okay.
That's it. I that's the only thing I have checks for. I've used it before for checks to I forgot exactly what, but different things here and there. It's very rare that I do it, and I always, like, have to look up how to properly write a check with endorsing it on the back and everything. And Yeah.
I've I've got it down pretty good because I've written so many. 100. I I don't know. You know, running the shop in Burley. Lots of checks getting written in there.
But, I forgot what I was gonna say, so forget it. Used a record player? Definitely. I have 2 record players in my place right now. Used MSN Messenger?
Never. Okay. Yeah. That that was what we had to do back in the day. We had Yahoo Messenger.
We had Excite. There there was a bunch of them. ICQ. That that was, I hope. That's all I know.
Down with the clown? Down with the clown. Yeah. Alright. My dad even commented on the post, and I'm not that old, but have done them all.
He turns 60 next year. So See, you're not very old at all, and you've done most of them. So I I didn't think it was a very good list. Right. Yeah.
No. No. You need to you need to go back to that what we were talking about off the air with what that one guy posted on my friend's list that was like, back in my day, we had 25¢ Cheeseburgers and McDonald's. What's going on here? Exactly.
That's when, you know, you could talk about being old. You go back well, I'm not gonna make the joke I was gonna make. Oh, come on. Why not? Not gonna do it.
Not gonna do it. Wrapping up the noon hour of madness and mayhem powered by Jalisco's. Victor, what you got over there? Well, I don't remember who I was talking to early. It was lieutenant Crane that I was talking to about little kids swearing.
Oh, I think it's really fun. I heard that part of traffic school. So somebody posted on Reddit, my 8 year old tearfully confessed to me today that he cursed out a classmate at school. So I was relaxing with my kid before bed. I just turned out the lights and he had put on one of the nightly podcasts we listened to when he suddenly started sobbing.
Oh, podcasts we listened to when he suddenly started sobbing. He told me he did something terrible, really bad, and was afraid I'd yell and be so mad. I stayed calm and assured him I wouldn't yell. He told me he said, blank you. Shut up to another boy his age.
Nice. No teachers were around. The boy told him he's not allowed to say that, and my son told me he immediately apologized. I sat there as he choked all this out. I felt helpless in the moment.
He's so young, but he felt so much shame. He was asking me how he will ever forget doing such a thing and said, why do I praise him when he did a bad thing when I told him I was proud that he felt safe to tell me? He was also so scared the other boy would tell his parents and he may get expelled from school. I again reassured him when we started talking about measures to be more careful with his speech. So this kid, he was so upset he was shaking because he, you know, said something a little bit negative.
I can't wait to finally have kids and just see them, like, get all scared, do the tactics that I did back when I was a young troublemaker. Oh, dude. It's funny because I think back I know I got in trouble for using bad language in school lots of times, but, I mean, you'd have to say something really horrific, I would think, to get expelled, kicked out of school permanently. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. You had to be even where I was, like, in Southern California, you had to, like, really, really, really mess up. I think one kid pulled out a knife one time. That was worth an expulsion, but, what I what I used to do is that if I was on the swing set and there was a kid counting how many times so I can get off and they can have their tune, I start kicking sand at them while I'm on the swing. You know?
Like, that was okay somehow. Oh, it's just just funny. I, you know, I'm thinking back and, like I I mean, he must have been afraid that the school was gonna tell his parents, and that's why he's like, I better fess up first. Or they they get that mom that's like, how do you allow this language in this facility, like that type of Karen that goes to the the principal? Yeah.
Because kids swear. People like to pretend they don't. They pretend their kid's the best kid ever. Yeah. I'm sure that kid was worthy of that, you know, that sentence there.
Yeah. He probably deserved it. Right. You know? Some kid named Cody causing a havoc in the back of the kindergarten classroom.
And the kid said he immediately apologized after when the kid's like, I would've if that was me What was that? I swear it's some kid, and he's like, I'm a go, jeez, the things that would start coming out of my mouth. See, back when I was a kid, though, it was like, I know you are, but what am I? Like, that was the big thing. Me and my friends were a bunch of foul mouths.
We were bad. But it was probably loud back then, wasn't it? No. I mean, but if you were just on the playground, no teachers around, yeah, you're you're gonna be able to get away with it. But Some some kid called me some, like, not even that bad of a word, and I went right to the lunch lady.
And they sent them right to the right to the snitch. When I was a kid, you know, we're all battling to see who could, like, get get the other people in trouble first. Oh, jeez. Yeah. We we wouldn't have liked that in my crew.
But that was the same time where, like, we we we would trap bees in Doritos bags and then shake up the Doritos bags and then open it back up, and the last person to leave would win. Because for me to be all angry and try to stay not. He played different games than me. The noon hour of madness and mayhem powered by Haliscos is a production of Riverbend Media Group.
