The Viktor Wilt Show

No. That's not even the button I wanted to push. I am a disaster today. Apparently, the genius of the day, me, for my skills at running this program today. Oh, man.

So brutal. Okay. Let's go to Florida. If you have stored in your phone, the phone number to your local sheriff's office Oh, no. If you're engaging in criminal behavior that involves text messaging, you probably wanna make sure you have that labeled very clearly so you don't end up like Octavia Wells who sent a text message looking for some Fentanyl because she was headed out of town.

So that message, yes, went to a local sheriff's office, and they're like, oh, okay. Great. Sure. Yeah. We got some Fentanyl.

Why don't you come meet up with us? So she headed to a gas station and, rolls in, and you've got, the BCSO special investigations division waiting. And then, yeah, I guess they charged her with, unlawful use of a two way communication device, possession of drug paraphernalia, and driving with a suspended revoked license. So Florida, they ain't even they messing around. You even trying to get some drugs.

Gonna track you down and I mean how embarrassing it did kinda it'll make me ponder some april fools pranks for lieutenant crane but because I have his cell phone number. I could text him. I I text him regularly. Just start sending photos that I pull up online. Giant piles of drugs.

Hey. You know anybody who's looking for some of these? He but I don't know if he'd think the joke was very funny. You know? I swear.

Look. Here's where I found it on Google. Then I got the local SWAT ripping my house apart. It's like, please, I just got it clean for the kids coming to arrive. Please don't make it a mess.

There's nothing here. It was a joke, man. A little prank. Just a prank, bro. You ever see pranks go wrong on YouTube?

That's what would happen to me. Would be funny though just to just see if his reaction, you know, if he would, do this, you know, like the the Florida cops and just, you know, pretend. Like, sure. Yeah. Let's meet up.

Oh, yeah. I I don't recommend pranks on cops, everybody. I wonder if people have ever tried to to play pranks on cops and it ended badly. Maybe that'll give me some content to find. It's the Victor Wilt Show.

Good morning. Good day. Well, I didn't find any good examples of people trying to prank the police that were ultimately funny. They tended to be the worst kind of pranks, bomb threats, and false reports and things like that. And the people who get busted are like, it was just a prank, dude.

Come in. But you start searching for pranks gone awry. Plenty of that floating around. And it tends to, you know, be YouTubers, TikTokers. I don't know.

Some guy in Arizona was at a grocery store, like, just spraying plants. Not plants. I don't know. Vegetables. I guess they are plants.

Right? Anyways, spraying bug killer on plants, vegetables, produce at an Arizona Walmart. Four felony charges. 4 of them. Holy cow.

You better hope you got a lot of views, buddy. Yeah. He's got, introducing poison, criminal damage, endangerment, and, I guess theft because he he didn't pay for that can of hotshot ultra bed bug and flea killer prior to spraying it all over the bananas and such. It was just a prank for my TikTok. That guy is gonna be in jail for a while, and he was doing pretty good.

Had 345,000 followers on TikTok. Get that GoFundMe going, buddy. What an idiot. There was another guy. Got busted stealing $40,000 from a coworker.

Cop show up. It was a prank, dude. Just a prank. He broke into a a house and stole 40 grand in cash. It was a prank, man.

Holy cow. And then there was, this, group of kids who somehow the news got out that they were going to do a little bit of toilet papering. So you got 5 kids arrested in I'm not sure where this is because it doesn't say the, state. The town's called Ringe, r I n d g e. Anyway, officers received tips about the planned mischief, conducted surveillance.

Oh, you we got some kids that might be doing some toilet papering. Alright. Fire up the wire. Tap those phones. We're taking them down.

And they did. Yeah. Busted them with over 1,000 rolls of t p, which have been confiscated. Also, one minor charged with, possession and use of tobacco. Jeez.

They're, they're really sticking it to these kids here. Got this 18 year old kid who's being charged with loitering, prowling, unlawful activities, littering, disobeying an officer, criminal mischief, resisting arrest, and he's the, possession of tobacco winner there. And they're, like, hey. We're continuing this investigation. There's anybody else who's planning on getting out and doing some tping.

We're coming for you. We don't mess around. We're the Ringe Police Department. I don't know. I mean, toilet papering can make a just disastrous mess, but a full fledged investigation into potential toilet papering seems a little bit silly to me, but, you know, keeping the community safe, everybody.

Good morning. Welcome to the Victor Wilt program. Today, I hope you're surviving. That's what I'm doing. Just surviving.

I am so exhausted. So exhausted that I feel, disheveled by it. 3 nights in a row with bad sleep is not good. Not for this guy. Alright.

Let's keep talking about pranks gone awry because we can't really dig into the current news because there's nothing really, exciting going on. Alright. Guy got arrested after prank calling the police over 200 times. This is recent. That's a bad idea.

Alright? I learned that when I was a kid. I was at the Albertsons on Yellowstone in Pocatello. It's not there anymore. Now it's Winco.

They had a, great American video next door. And I don't know. I must I don't know how old I was. Really, really young. But I remember this.

They had a pay phone outside of Albertsons, and, my mom ran in to get a money order or something. So, I think I was at Great American Video, and then I walked over to the pay phone and, like, you know, just dial 911 for some reason and hung up the phone. Boy, did I get a talking to about that? The store manager comes out with my mom and yeah. They they keep track of that stuff.

They know how to figure out where the calls came from. So, yeah, this guy's in jail. If you hassle the 911 system, you're gonna you're gonna have a bad time. Okay? There was this other, group of teens.

Apparently, a new prank on TikTok that's making the rounds is to go beat on people's doors or kick them and run away like a really aggressive ding dong ditch. Don't do that, k. In Harrison, Maine, one teenager was shot doing this. Now, if somebody knocks on your door and runs away, don't run out into the street and start shooting at them, Kay? You're going to be okay.

If somebody, you know, bursts into your house and threatens you, you know, you gotta defend yourself. But if they do ding dong ditch, just, you know, get mad, I guess. You woke me up. But then go back to bed. You know, if you really wanna call the cops, somebody knocked on my door and ran away.

Get a ring camera. You know? Get a camera to put on your front porch if you're that concerned about it. Don't wanna be like that black foot sheriff. You know?

Anytime I get an opportunity to bring that story back up from 2021, always glad to do so. Yeah. The, Bingham County sheriff back then, You had this, youth group who was going out delivering thankful turkeys, these little you know, just little drawings of turkeys that said thank you, but they were ding dong ditching. They'd, you know, tape the turkey on the door and then ring the doorbell and run away. And the blackfoot sheriff, you know, was apparently worried someone was trying to break in.

So he ran outside with his gun, stopped their vehicle, pulled the driver out by the hair, you know, with a gun in their face, at least according to this article. Or let's see. It says, I do have a gun in my hand, but I have my finger on the slide. He was using lots of profanity and that it just spiraled out of control. So anyway, I don't think ding dong ditch is a good idea in this day and age.

People are too psychotic. K? Multiple stories I've seen over the years of people getting shot or at least, you know, aggressively dealt with afterward. It ain't worth, you know, dying for a prank. K?

Your viral videos and such, they're gonna do you no good if you're dead. So that's one of those pranks you just gotta leave in the past like the flaming bag of poo. Well, not only would you probably get in some serious trouble for lighting a fire on somebody's porch in this day and age but, yeah, somebody might shoot you. So, don't do that, kids. Do not do it.

Toilet paper and ding dong ditch. All the fun that people used to have back in the day, you kids just can't do that. Alright? Maybe try I don't know. Prank phone call.

No. Wait. No. That gets you in trouble too. You just can't have any fun.

K? Play video games. When I was a kid, I remember a prank making the rounds. I don't know if it was in a movie or what, but, you know, at a sleepover, you, like, put your your friend's hand in some warm water and hopefully make them have an accident. You remember that prank?

Or the one I think this was definitely from a movie where you fill up their hand with shaving cream and then you, like, tickle their nose with a feather and get them to smear the shaving cream all over their face. K. Those were fairly harmless. You know, maybe embarrassing, but fairly harmless pranks. Don't whip up a pot of boiling water and pour it on your friends at a sleepover cheese.

Yeah, this 12 year old kid in, Georgia. That's precisely what happened. Hanging out with his friends, having a sleepover, and, hey. Well, it's pranking, man. I don't know if they boiled up a pot on the oven, if they microwaved some water, but he had to go to the burn center and have surgery.

He's all messed up. What is wrong with kids? You know? I don't know. I don't really know how to wrap that one.

I mean, I don't wanna make jokes about a poor kid who had, you know, boiling water poured on him. Holy cow. I just wanted to let you know. There's gotta be some harmless pranks you can do with your friends. Whipped cream and the, the feather.

There you go. I I maybe it's not as, you know, newsworthy, but you don't wanna end up in the news for that. I would imagine these kids are in a lot of trouble, and that's just not nice. Okay. Well, you know, when I woke up this morning, I was like, I'd rather wake up how I did this morning than yeah.

The morning could be worse. Freak news powered by Greasemonkey voted Idaho's best oil change. How's it going? It's Victor Will. Let's do this.

Alright. I know that air travel's gotten to be a little bit expensive. Was talking with my homie, Elwood, from Will Rock in Chicago last night. Going back and forth about upcoming events in 2025 because I feel like I need to get out to some of these these big things, like a big festival or something. You know, work as a media guy with my fellow radio personalities and, you know, do the thing.

I I don't know. There's also a radio convention that I haven't been to in many years. The happens convention happening at the end of February in Vegas. So, hell what, he's going to all this stuff. He gave me this huge list.

I'm like, man, you get to have all the fun being in Chicago. He's like, here's a 1,000,000 shows that we're gonna be at. I'm like, alright. Maybe maybe I can get out to one of them. Sure.

Never been to Chicago. I know people there. Could be fun. Well, anyway, I was looking at, like, Vegas flights. It sucks.

Alright. You know, to fly out of Idaho Falls at the time frame of the radio convention. Like, you'd still end up doing a 6 hour flight every flight I saw for that specific time frame. You had to go to, like, Seattle first or Salt Lake or whatever. It it just makes it more worthwhile to just get in my truck and drive to Vegas.

It's like 8 hours. It's not a big deal. Well, anyway, I know that was kinda long winded to get to the point of this story, which is just fork over the dough. Alright? Don't climb into the the landing gear so you can go from New York to Florida for example because you're gonna be dead.

2 people found dead in a jet blue plane In the landing gear, after a New York City to Florida flight, they don't know exactly why but, my guess is, inflation. Yes. Price of a ticket was just too high. Yeah. If there is potential death in your plans, you should rethink them.

K? Let's see here. Also, if you're gonna engage in criminal activity, maybe think that through. You wanna mug an old lady? You never know who you're messing with.

You might encounter Linda Rosa. Four teens tried to steal her purse after she was exiting a subway in Brooklyn and she beat the crap out of these kids. Yeah. You got 4 teens versus 71 year old Linda Rosa. She grabbed 2 of them by their hair, slammed them face first into the floor.

You wanna fight? Or maybe it was, you wanna fight with me? Is there video footage of this? These are just still images from the, surveillance cameras. I wanna see the video of these teens just getting stomped by this old lady.

Yeah. So, yeah. They they managed to catch 2 of them because she she held on tight screaming, I need assistance. I need assistance. Nothing worse than getting beat up by a 71 year old woman and then going to jail.

Good honor. Linda Rosa, 1st hero of 2025. Finally, as a bit of another safety warning, if your neighbors have pigs, don't go near them. There was a woman in Ohio, attacked by her neighbor's pigs. She dead.

Yeah. And they ate her. Oh, not all the way. It does say partially ate her. Yeah.

Still just as bad. Like, partially eaten by pigs. You know? It it would be just as bad if you were fully consumed. Alright.

So, yeah. I know we got, pig farmers around here. Ever since I read that book, Hannibal. You know, the sequel to The Silence of the Lambs? Ever since I read that book, pigs, you know, they kinda scare me.

Also, if you played Red Dead Redemption 2, everybody knows. You know, what's an easy way to get rid of a body if you're in town? Chuck them in the pigpen. Pigs eat people. They do.

It's crazy. They can chew through bone. That's why, you know, people are so terrified about, the feral hogs taking over. You know, they're spreading throughout the US. Violent beasts.

Anyway, yeah, just watch out for pigs. Most people concerned about, I don't know, bears. I don't wanna bring up people getting ripped apart by sharks or crocodiles. Somebody might lose their mind. So adding to the list of places I won't go, we've got, natural waters.

You know, I'm not gonna step foot in natural waters. You got all kinds of critters that could attack you or parasites, potentially sharks and crocodiles. I think I'm gonna have to avoid pig pens. I mean, the farm in general. Alright?

One kick from a horse to the head. You're done. Brad Royal, who used to work here, terrified of horses and probably with good reason. Well, I mean, they'll let you ride them. Just don't stand behind them.

You know, you you scare them? Not good. Not good. And, yeah, I'm gonna also add because somebody commented, you know, hey. People have been, you know, injured while hunting, and they still go out and camp.

Now I'm gonna add camping to the list. Alright? There's bears and mountain lions out there. Coyotes. Yeah.

Coyotes. They could attack people. They're wild dogs. Tents. We got natural waters, pig pens, well, farms in general, tents.

Victor Wilt. No. I don't wanna talk about myself in 3rd person again. So cringe. So cringe.

Almost as cringe as the video we put up for Idaho's number one baby bump. We got peaches in the house. What's up? Well, just, you know, checking out the fire pictures, you know, your your fam not anywhere close to the area that's on fire, I assume? No.

They're in the Orange County area, which is about, I mean, traffic wise, an hour south. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

There's some, crazy video making that one you just showed me from that guy inside of his house. 2 dudes and a dog trapped inside their house and all around it looks like a music video set. Yeah. It's Flames, like, 10 feet high in the air. I mean, like you said, nightmare fuel.

Mhmm. That that was horrifying. I I hope those guys are okay. The the whole house was surrounded. They had, you know, these giant windows surrounding out.

There's no there's no basements in California, so they're not gonna go down either. Oh, man. Yeah. That that's genuinely frightening. And, you know, when you take a look at the news articles about this, it makes me so frustrated when you see people just lacking any kind of sympathy for fellow human beings.

Well Turning it political. They won't get sad unless it's like their grandma's house or something like that. Which they would. You know, if if we had a natural disaster happen around here we've had fires around here, lots of them, and people's homes have been destroyed. You know, I'm not sure if, you know, we've had death probably.

I would assume deaths. And those people are crying on social media, but now they're laughing at LA for They laugh at LA. Yeah. And it's like, these are people. You know?

Try to be a reasonable human being. That was your and a lot of people don't. They don't know. There could be people reading the comments who have family members who are right now evacuating or stuck. Like, you know, it's a smaller world than people might think.

Like, I don't know. The the nastiness I've seen come out in people in the last 4 years. It's it's just so gross. Like, you know, back when COVID was happening and people were in the news for dying from COVID and people would laugh react at local stories. I know Mark Zuckerberg.

Somebody's grandma. Mark Zuckerberg just did this whole update video for Facebook or meta, I should say, and I wanted the comments saying get rid of the laugh react because every single tour lineup, everything. It could be a dog dying. Somebody's bound to laugh. Yeah.

The the Laugh React, it was funny because they for years years, all you could do on Facebook was like. You know, they didn't have all of these different things and people, for a long time, wanted like a a a thumbs down or something. Imagine that. Yeah. Hey, I wanna be able to spread negativity.

And then they launch all of these new options for ways to react to posts and people immediately started using them in, snarky and nasty ways. You know, I think the laugh react, you know, you can just type in the comments. I think at this point, it could go because people just use it for mostly negative reasons. So let's see. You're not only hiding on Facebook there in the comment or, not only hiding on Facebook, but when you just laugh react to something, you're not putting yourself with your name in the comment section either.

That's true. That's true. So it does kind of hide it. I mean, you can go in and see who's laugh reacting. Note to, you know, fellow people in the community who laugh react on things relating to us.

We see you. We see you. Oh, trust me. Yeah. Yeah.

I see it. We know. I can I I'm waiting for someone to say something, and then I'm ready to pounce? Well, what I think about, you know, some of these certain individuals who have laugh reacted some of the, you know, k Bear complaints in the Life in Idaho Falls group recently, they're just jealous. They're jealous that that many people are talking about us and listen to us because they're now in obscurity and nobody cares.

You know? So laugh, react all you want. We're the kings. And we have a loyal team, a loyal army behind us. I still think we should definitely do the, podcast that we were talking about off the air yesterday.

Boy, with my lack of sleep, I don't even remember what that was. Oh, I can't say it on the air either. It's 4 letters. Oh, yeah. I came up with a great new podcast.

That was fantastic. Yeah. I I don't wanna give it away because I I wanna lock that down, but that is a pretty good and it's not a 4 letter word, everybody. It was in the What do they call it? Just 4 letters.

What what does it mean when they stand for something? Anagram? That's not right. Acronym. Acronym.

Anagram. Dude, I'm telling you. I'm I'm, like, way out of whack today. A pillow and a blanket and go nap in your office? Oh, I might have to, man.

I might go for it. Just, go shut the door and lay on the floor if you need it. I'll use my hoodie as a blanket, lay on the floor, be fine. Out of here. I'm hopefully, tonight, I'll just crash in my, recliner like I like I did, last week or the week before.

Have you been stressed out about stuff recently? Like, not not that long ago, but, I mean, like, just yesterday or the day before? No. Not really stressed. I I don't know if it was my sleep schedule just got thrown off from the holidays, and I haven't adjusted back yet, but, yeah, I just can't get comfortable.

And I'm just in bed tossing and turning. I'm now waking up at 4:30 Jeez. Because because I said I would wake up early to go to the gym. And when I for some reason, when I say the time in my head, I'll wake up at that time naturally. And so I'm like, I'll wake up at 4.

And also, like, my phone's 4:32. I'm like, oh, okay. Neat. Yeah. Not not for me.

It's alarm, snooze, alarm, snooze, alarm, snooze for, like, 20 minutes. Yeah. So, anyhow, just want to encourage everybody to try to be a good human being. You know? Think about what you say on social media.

You could be, you know, just really hurting somebody who's potentially dealing with a major tragedy. You know? Chill out. Like the Life in Idaho Falls group said yesterday, the the admin, can somebody please share something positive? I liked how Matty was trying to, kiss butt to the admins yesterday with the whole Yeah.

Heart the life of Idaho Falls admins post. That's right. I I didn't go that far. I I liked I I posted a picture of Lucy covered her up by a little blanket and was like, alright. Here's something positive.

I've bored a little kid. Lucy's brain rot video, by the way, that you posted. It's it's really funny because she's she looks at you like, what what on earth is this? Well, my cats, because I tried it with Koopa last night too, and he did the same thing. Just no reaction.

I think they're just used to, strange things happening around. You you've seen my living room. There's flashing lights everywhere. They've also, like, they also freaked out of that video game that you were playing. Yeah.

They were way more bothered by that than the, I mean, they weren't even phased by the cat Brainrot. And I I was disappointed because there's some really funny videos of cats reacting to that. Oh, yeah. So I I was hoping for it. You gotta put, like, tinfoil on the dining room table or something or maybe put in the bay like, all over the basement so that way Koopa stops freaking out down there.

What? Do you think that'll stop him? Well, it'll stop him going down there. Down here. No.

I need him to go down there because that's where the litter box is. Oh, okay. My bad. Yep. May maybe that's why.

He's like, you're gonna come down here and, you know, dispose of my waste again? Where are you taking it? It's like no. It's like, if someone followed you into the bathroom, like, what are you doing following me? I think that's what Koopa said.

Maybe that's it. Why are you down here? I'm trying to head into the, you know, the utility room to use the bathroom. Yeah. Come on.

Give me some privacy. Hey, Davis. Good morning. Good, Yeah. I don't know what the deal is, man.

And it's not just you and me. I've talked to a lot of people that this week is just brutalizing them. No. Sleep for the wicked. I know and I feel bad like, oh, I'm so tired.

You know, you got people who are trying to escape wild tires. I know I'm getting more delirious as each day passes this week. This morning, it's like, okay. The world seems kinda weird. I think I'm having sleep deprivation issues.

You you'd think that after that many days, I just crash. But you we were talking about it off air. 8:30 PM then. About there, and then you get a good 20 minute nap, and then you're wired awake again until sometime in the middle of the night. For me, it's like a a just a flip of the switch.

Boom. I'm all of a sudden awake again. Yeah. And, you know, from 5 till then, like, oh, I could just doze off right now. You know?

And then last night, I at least 11 PM, which is just way too late when you gotta get up when I do. But Josh and Chantelle, I know they feel like they got hit by a train. Every everybody's just had it. We we need to change the way holidays work. You know, I I think they should always take place, like, on a Monday or a Friday or something.

I I think it was the whole both Christmas and New Year, the holiday break happened in the middle of the week. They just threw off 2 weeks. Yeah. So, you know, you'd like, k. Wake up early.

Okay. I get to sleep in and wake up early. Get to sleep and, yeah, just destroyed everybody. Blasted this the sleep cycle. All holidays.

Let's I know that the dates are important to some people, but come on. And, you know, you just shift it around a little bit. Thanksgiving floats. Why can't all the other holidays? I'm always on Fridays.

Yeah. 4th July, I get it. That's when they sign the declaration of independence. But is it really going to, you know, minimal minimize? See, I I can't even think of the words I wanna use today.

Me. That's not the right word. Yeah. It's not rotten. Marginalized.

Marginal that's not it either. You know, is it gonna deflate the meaning of America if we celebrate our independence on a Friday every year? No. It'd be fine. We could still call it the 4th July too because you can do whatever you want.

Yeah. It's kinda like getting married. You don't have to go fill out the legal forms. You don't have to go to the courthouse. You could just be like, I'm married.

I claim to be. And somebody be like, well, yeah. But you didn't, you know, register that with the courthouse. Shut up. I can call myself whatever I want.

Save you money in the long run potentially too. Money and hassle. Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one suffering. I like seeing when you walk. They're, like, crawl in here.

Like, yeah. It's not only me. Not only me. How are we gonna make it through the week, man? I'm just gonna lay down and take a nap.

Luckily, my, office does not have windows. I've only got one window. No. I have windows to the outside. Oh.

But not windows from that people can see me in. I've got blinds on my window. So, you know, I could turn the light on in there. Just lock the door. Lock the door.

Put a note on the door says busy in a meeting or do you have a picture? I'm working on Christmas music. Don't bother me for anything. Well, I got 2 big nice chairs I can put together. Take a nap.

Have a TV in there. I'll put on some Netflix. That's why you You'll just be out. That's why you guys only gave me one of those nice chairs. That's right.

I could still sit back to work. I could still sleep in that chair. Just you got that old band status. You sit down on it in a chair in a dark room. You just go out.

Exactly. Yeah. Turn the lights off in there. Close all the blinds. Do not disturb.

I I could I mean, there was a day I think it was last week my sleep also got a little wonky, like, Thursday or Friday. I'm sitting in here and I'm like, I'm a fall asleep talking on this show. I did that several times last week too. Yeah. I was, like, literally falling asleep in the studio, like, this is not good.

I always wondered how my grandpa would fall asleep so quickly and now I'm starting to understand he used to fall asleep in his recliner watching TV with his hand on the channel button So it's just like and if you try and take it from him he'd get up in like a half delirium and be like, go ahead, leave my grandma alone I'm trying to watch the news. And then pass right back out. Wow. I mean, if you're into sleep, it's good to get old. But it just and, unfortunately, yeah, I don't wanna get my sleep in the middle of the morning show.

I'd like to get it at night. I always slept better from in this hour part of the day. This Well, dude Man, I can't even think either. There Every weekend, I shift back to, you know, my natural sleep cycle, which is stay up late and sleep till, you know, maybe 8 or 9. You know?

I mean, if I'm real lucky, I can push it to 10, but Dude, over like the old days. Well, the last 2 weeks, I was asleep till 11. Woah. Right? Even with the kids around.

Yeah. They're they're to that age so they can fend for themselves in the morning. Oh, dude. That's the best when they get you know, alright. They can get up, make themselves cereal or whatever.

Turn on the TV. That's the best, man. That's a great turning point as a parent. I got it. Yes.

Now just wait about, you know, 10 years and then they'll be doing everything. You don't have to do anything for them. Nothing at all. Get a job. Get Except for pay for their college.

Oh, yeah. Wait a minute. You do still have to they still do take all of your money. Alright. We'll be back in just a minute.

Did we just, like, yap for a really long time? Probably. I don't know what's going on here, but alright. We'll delete those songs. Go to break.

Come back in a few. Earlier on the show, I was talking about pranks. Pranks gone awry. This one, you could definitely get me with. I would have been the guy who called the cops, who would have called 911 in this situation without question.

Happened in Needham, Massachusetts. Get a call about, you know, a snake in the house. Help. Help me. There's a rattlesnake in my house.

Now I don't know if they deal with a lot of rattlesnakes in Needham, Massachusetts, but even if you weren't generally concerned about it you could have somebody put a fake animal in my home that you know, there's no chance of it being around here or gator, you know, for example, or a crocodile. I'd panic. I'd panic even though I know, like, there's no way that a gator wandered into my home. So you got, it's a fake snake. It's a fake snake.

Their roommates were like, oh, he's terrified of snakes. Put a snake in his room. So the guy calls 911. The cops show up. And this officer, it was like lieutenant Crane style.

He just grabs the snake by the head immediately. And then he realized, oh, this is a rubber snake. So all ended well. I guess they didn't get charged for wasting, you know, the police resources and things like that. Cops all had a good laugh about it.

But, yeah, I would totally be the guy. If I saw a snake in my house, I ain't gonna try to deal with it. Snakes just really give me the creeps. I don't I'm a little furry animals kind of guy. Alright?

If it don't have fur, chances are I'm scared of it. Little tiny lizard. You know, every time I think I wanna, you know, win the lotto and have a a summer well, no. A winter home in Arizona. I'm down there wandering around, and I see, you know, lizards, and there's, like, tarantulas and stuff.

Scorpions. Yeah. Scorpions. That's their hobo spider. Scorpions.

Terrifying. So anyway, funny prank, funny prank. Glad nobody was hurt. Glad nobody was arrested. And I shouldn't give you listeners ideas.

Alright? I'm glad that most of you don't know where I live. K? No fake snakes on my front porch. You know what would be a great topic, a great style, a topic for radio peaches?

A boring one. Well Let's talk about boring stuff because that's great. I like your tribute there to the palace the Pacific Palisades with Hollywood forever. You know what? I like Hollywood.

I've always had fun when I've been in Hollywood. There's, you know, it Vegas and LA, there there's something about those places that I just enjoy for some reason now. LA, I can stay there for more than 2 days. Vegas, 2 days. I'm like, I've I've had it.

I think there's just too much, you know, bright flashing lights and craziness. LA's a even though it's way more congested, the vibes, just more relaxed. Vegas is all up in your face about consumerism. Yeah. Like, do you wanna see a billboard that's as large as a skyscraper?

I mean, you even have casinos that will just have the escalator in but the stairs out or Oh, and I think just walking through casinos is so exhausting because Don't you love it? Ting ting ting ting. Those hypocritical old people, get off that iPad meanwhile they're just spamming the slot machine. Just, you know, all their grandkids potential inheritance down the drain. Who cares?

They're gonna be dead soon anyway, you know. Just burn all the money. Oh, I can't say burn in Hollywood in the same sense. My bad. Sorry, guys.

No. So, oh, yeah. We were gonna talk about boring stuff. Yeah. Boring drives.

Boring drives. Now, I also asked chat gpt this question too. What did chat g p t say was the most boring drive in America? On the I seventy between Topeka, Kansas and Aurora, Colorado, the 530 mile stretch traverses the flat plains of Kansas offering little variation in scenery. How many miles is it?

530. Sounds pretty bad. I've heard that traveling across Texas, Jade says that's the worst. You you can drive for 12 hours and you'll still be in Texas if you go from Houston, which is on the far East Coast right by the water there. Mhmm.

My friend Tyler lived in Houston. He moved back in with his parents to Whittier, California. Oh, man. He drove for 12 hours. I'm still in Texas.

Yeah. When I think of boring drives, I saw the response Reno to a variety of place. Reno to anywhere is a bad drive. The drive from Terrible. Seal Beach to here.

It was terrible in the beginning. I mean, you were still in California, then you get to, like, Eastern California? And like all these terrible, like, little cities and such. And then you get to Nevada. And Nevada is just desert.

Yeah. And then you see Vegas pop up in the distance. And then you go towards it and Vegas is nice. And then after that, nothing. Nothing.

Just nothing. You watch the sand turn into red rocks and then you go to Saint through like Saint George and all. And then it's nice again. Yeah. It's like, alright.

There's some stuff to see down here. This is pretty cute. You're like, am I on Mars? Oh, this is my dad loves Saint George. He was having time of his life when we, when he drove me when we both drove to here and then he drove back.

He stopped in Saint George, stayed there for, like, a day or 2. Yeah. Saint George is pretty nice. It's not too bad. I I like the I like the red rock imagery.

You know, I'm a big fan of Sedona and places like that. So Wouldn't wouldn't you be great though if, like, you lived there? I would think so. I would think it would just because it's like anything. Like, if you buy an, you know, a new whatever, a new car.

Like, oh, this is awesome, and then it's just your car. You know, buy a new guitar. I love this. This is a may well, it's one of my guitars. I could use another one.

I could use a new one. When I think of boring drives peaches around here, I think the worst drive around here is Pocatello to Boise. I think that drive sucks. You're right. It's terrible.

Yeah. You know, the best way to travel from Idaho Falls to Boise, you go through Arco and Craters of the Moon and just go through the mountains. You know? That it takes a tiny bit longer, but it's way more scenic and cool, and it's really chill. There's, like, no traffic at all.

So, driving to Boise, man. Plus, if you go the freeway route, you have to go past Burley. And there's nothing worse than Oh. Just being in the vicinity of Burley. I'm shocked Burley didn't pop up on that post that I sent you on Facebook.

Well, I mean, there is off in the distance mountains, so it's not as bad as Reno to Blanc, but just that overall drive. It just sucks. I'm going I'm going down this list on chat g p t, and there's that one part, the I eighty between Sparks, Nevada and Salt Lake City That don't sound great. Where you cross vast desert areas with limited roadside attractions making the journey feel prolonged is what it says. Oh, even another one here, I 29 between Sioux Falls, South Dakota and Fargo, North Dakota.

I bet that's bad. Yeah. No. No no Idaho in this list. I see Flagstaff and Barstow, California.

That does suck. Yeah. I would imagine that, Idaho is not gonna pop up on the list because most areas when people think of traveling are fairly scenic. Like, if you go, you know, south to Salt Lake, mountains the whole way, you know, it it it ain't too bad. You know, it's pretty much, yeah, just driving through the, Snake River plain that can be kinda dull.

Definitely. You know, once you get past, like, massacre rocks, it just sucks. Oh, my friend Matt. Pretty much all the way to Boise. My friend Matt's trying to plan his travels to come back here in the summertime because he wants to visit.

It's like the first time in, like, 4 years he's been out here. But we're trying to bring my other friend, Jose, and we're trying to figure out travel plans. They're wanting to land in Jackson Hole and then drive back here. Because they they said the trek to Santa Ana for that airport and then flying from Santa Ana to Idaho Falls is too much. They'd much rather fly out of LAX than go towards either Jackson Hole or, Salt Lake City.

I'm like, if you guys fly to Salt Lake City, that's 800 miles for a to and from trip 2 times in a row. Yeah. I if you can fly in close, it's always better. But Jackson Hole would be fun because the show I'm not like like, hey, Jackson's a let down. Look at this place.

Yeah. Well, we're gonna drive into Grand Teton. What you should see if you go to Jackson. Yeah. We found a a sick waterfall, like, halfway between Jackson and here.

Oh. And and, Was that probably at Swan Valley? Need to figure out because my friend Matt sent me the location. I'm guessing it. The only waterfall I can think of between here and Jackson would be in Swan Valley.

And you can take that route coming from a Victor. Yeah. Yeah. You see that, Swan Valley? I don't know if it was to the left of Swan Valley.

Yeah. Yeah. It's well, Swan Valley is, like, very small, but, I always think of that spot, as being Swan Valley. You you should go check out that waterfall on the South Fork, everybody. It's very pretty.

Very pretty. Don't go right now. It's gonna suck. Oh, you can go right now. Who cares?

You might actually a real Idaho and you'll survive it. You might actually be able to get to it. I would imagine well, because it does turn dirt road. I don't know. I'm I'm not gonna try it.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. The Teton Pass right now would be awful. Oh, yeah. Brutal.

But that's not a boring drive. That is the opposite of a boring drive. That that can be white knuckle. You want the opposite of a boring drive? Go do the pass today.

I I I really wanna take you to we'll both fly to Southern California and then we'll drive to Big Bear Lake and we'll go on that Windy Road up the mountain. It's literally like a snake. I I really enjoyed the, drive from, Los Angeles along is it I five? Is that the north I'm the worst when it comes to the highways, man. It's the one that hugs the coast, and we took it all the way yeah.

The Pacific Coast Highway. Yeah. Unfortunately, now that's getting burned up towards the Palisades area, Malibu, and all of that. But, yeah, beautiful drive all the way to Oregon. I I really like Northern California.

It's too bad that it's, fire central. You know? Doesn't look like the best place to hunker down because it's nice up there. Could blast the ACDC saw on Highway to Heck. The whole time.

To the whole jeez. Hope everybody's doing okay out there. Hey. Morning, people. How's it going?

I hope you're having a wonderful day. I hope you're awake, like fully awake and energized. This guy ain't. But still doing my best to give you a show. I hope it hasn't been too bad.

The first hour was so terrible. I'm not even putting it in the on demand podcast version of the show. I just deleted it. It was garbage. My apologies to those listening during the 6 AM hour today.

It sucked. It was really bad. And you know how bad the show is just generally. So if I'm saying it's bad, it was really bad. Alright.

Let's take a look at, horrifying facts. Sure. You know, with as disheveled as my brain is, might as well, you know, just soak up some of these facts that sound horrifying the more you think about it. These better be good too. Because I didn't do much previewing of this content, so we'll see.

Alright. I have always been a bit creeped out by the thought of your skeleton is constantly wet until you either get cremated or that's all that's left of you. Alright. I guess I'd never really thought about that. Didn't give me the creeps.

Alright. I could start bringing up articles about parasites that might that might do it but I'm already feeling creepy crawly from lack of sleep. Let's see here. The entirety of what is you is held in a chunk of electrified fat inside of a thin box of bone and hair. That's a fun way to describe a human body.

Doesn't creep me out though. Doesn't give me the creeps. Alright. Should I, go to this link? They linked a page.

Oh, yeah. This is guaranteed to give me the creeps. It's called the deep sea. Okay. So if you wanna go to this and follow along, neil.funnel.fund/deepdashc.

Neil.fun/deepdashc. You start off at the top and it shows animals that are in the ocean. I I guess, you know, fish aren't animals. Right? What's the scientific definition of an animal?

Don't ask me today. My mind is cooked. But yeah, you've got, you know, okay. A lot of different types of fish and things like that. Look at the cute little clown fish.

Oh, and if you go a little deeper, you get to the depths that orcas might go. This ain't too bad. Sea lions do give me the creeps. Sharks. Sure.

But let's go deeper. Oh, man. As you start scrolling and just going deeper and deep Wow. This really scares me just because of how deep the ocean is. Holy cow.

Let's go all the way to the bottom and see what kind of freak show creatures are living down at the depths. Okay. We've got the Hadal snailfish. It's weird looking. I'm not even gonna the thought of being in a submarine and going down in the ocean.

Okay. Now I have given myself the creeps. The creeps. Alright. Here's somebody posting not a fact but like I go into subreddits for subjects I'm very familiar with and most of the information posted there is just wrong.

People don't understand the concepts they're explaining or they're confidently arguing something they heard in a meme. Posters who are obviously young or have school level knowledge of the subject posting as if they were career professionals. It's a mess. K. That's not just Reddit.

K. That's social media in general. I've seen people post some very confident statements on Facebook and comment sections, and it's like, dude, you're you're nuts. You're completely unhinged. Alright?

That is nonsense. Doesn't give me the creeps. It you know, just more sad. Just more sad at the state of the world. It should give me the creeps.

It should be more, you know, unsettling that people can be so naive and believe just about anything. But, nah. It's just annoying. Alright. What come on.

Give me give me something that really gives me the creeps here. You know when you have no idea what to do and think I need an adult, we are those adults now. Yeah. That doesn't give me the creeps. You know, that kinda ties in with that last one.

I learned as I got older oh, okay. It doesn't matter what age you are. Stupid people are still stupid. Just because somebody's a certain age doesn't mean they got no wisdom. That's for sure.

I've seen some real dumb old people on social media. Thankfully, the smartest people on the planet are those of you listening to this show. Regardless of age, I got a clear indicator of your intelligence simply by the fact that you're listening to me. You know, you listen to a dumb guy, make yourself feel a little bit better. Glad I could help out here.

Okay. I'm not even gonna read that one. It's not like that bad, but it actually is very disturbing. Okay. I'm gonna tell you it.

Is this true? Is this true? Okay. There are people saying this might not be true, so I'm not gonna read it. But it it was certainly not cool.

Not cool. If anybody wants to go to the subreddit, ask Reddit and look at this post, it's the statement from new lion 4362. Jeez. I'm glad, you know, I've said it time and time again we're living in the best times ever regardless of what anybody might tell you. That little factoid that I just read indicates to me, yes, we are living in the best times ever.

It was talking about medical procedures in the eighties. That wasn't that long ago. That's when I was a baby. Maybe that's why, you know, so many of us are all messed up, older people. Jeez.

Alright. Cool. As if I wasn't feeling creepy crawly enough. My goodness. Alright.

Well, anyway, I won't get into parasites and things. It's nobody wanna ponder that. That's more of a summertime thing when y'all decide I'm gonna go take myself a little dip in this, you know, lake. Shower off after. That's all I gotta say.

Mastodon and pushing the tides. Sorry. I just got an idea for a nice segue into what I was gonna talk about here. Are you gonna be pushing out a baby sometime soon? Well, do we have the contest for you?

Z one zero three is Idaho's number one baby bump delivered by Mountain View Hospital's new NICU. What's going on right now? We posted a very stupid video that Peaches, Katie, Lee, and I threw together yesterday. Well, Maddie threw the video together, but, we, you know, starred in it. And, it gives you the details.

You can see some of the items you could win for your new baby, like a crib and, you know, all that kind of stuff. Everything you need for that nursery. Save yourself some money. You know? Load up on diapers and wipes and such.

If you've got a baby on the way, well, all you gotta do is fire up any of the Kay Bear apps. You know, the regular old Kay Bear 101 app, Alt 101 or Cannonball 101. Follow the z 103 baby bump link in the menu. Fill out the form, submit a photo of your baby bump, and you're in to win. One lucky person taking it all home.

I think it would be pretty cool if one of our k Bear listeners wins this prize package, So might as well get yourself signed up. Save every bit of money that you can in this day and age, and, yeah. I don't know. I hope you win. The end.

Speaking of the end, I guess it's, the end of the show. Time for me to leave. Ugh. But I got a lot lot still to come today. Peaches and I will be hanging out for the noon hour and blah blah blah.

What an appropriate song sitting in the playlist to end the show with. 1 that was a hot topic on the Life in Idaho Falls Facebook group earlier this week, and it's called the end. It's Bill Murray. I'm gonna leave. See you.
