#0154 - How To Get Paid To Fart - 02/12/2025

Alright. I think I overheard Peaches talking about this one yesterday. Something that I have pointed out many times on this program, especially toward you younger people. You don't need to just get married right away. Okay.

It's okay to just be in a relationship with somebody. You can even call yourself married. You can say whatever you want about yourself. Right? Right?

You don't have to do the legal thing. Now I'm not saying you shouldn't get married. If you found that right someone go ahead and get married. But I think you should live together for a while first because you never know. You might be dealing with a real just freak show.

You know? There might be some deal breakers when it comes to actually living together, so you gotta give it a go. Alright? And it's okay. Despite what your parents might say, it's okay to live together before you're married.

K? You have my permission. There's a post on Reddit. What's the weirdest thing you've discovered about your partner only after moving in together? Hopefully, these are funny and not disturbing because yeah.

I I would imagine there have been some folks that sadly, they moved in together and, like, oh, jeez. I'm living with a serial killer. Alright. See what we got here. He will occasionally, usually when I'm not around to be appalled, eat dry tortellini straight out of the bag when he's reading in bed.

Alright. That's weird. Dry pasta. Yeah. Not not a fan of that.

Don't know I could tell you tried, dude. I think I've tried uncooked spaghetti at some point and it wasn't very pleasant. Let's see. He wanted to put all the cutlery just straight into a drawer without any divides between knives, forks, and spoons, just all there in a mess. That is kinda kinda chaotic in my personal opinion.

Now when it comes to the drawer with, knives in it, I do have a drawer that I just chuck, like, all the knives aside from the, you know, butter knives into. Is that weird? I don't have any anywhere else to put them. Alright? So they they just go in the drawer.

It's a nice skinny drawer. It looks perfect for putting knives in. Alright. In the middle of the night, I will wake up to him having both of his arms straight in the air like a zombie. Yeah.

That's that's kind of weird but I don't know if it's necessarily a dill breaker. You know, when you start flailing the arms about while sleeping, then we might have some issues here. Straight in the air. When I'm cooking, he insists on opening the oven multiple times to check if it's ready. Okay, kind of annoying, but you know he must be very excited about your cooking.

That's that's not too bad. Here's another person who sleeps weird sleeps like a vampire On his back with arms straight by his sides or fold his folded on his chest every single night. Some nights, he doesn't even change position at all. I was seriously concerned during the first couple of nights we slept in the same bed. I think the, arm straight up like a zombie is more bothersome than the vampire position, but that's just me.

It seems a a a little bit, creepier. Let's see. He we were fixing to watch a movie and he wanted popcorn. He said too bad we don't have any lettuce. I asked if he wanted a salad and he said no.

I want popcorn and lettuce. He said he never said anything at the movie theater because he knows they don't have lettuce. He eats popcorn and lettuce together. His whole family does. That is a weird combo to me.

Popcorn's got a little bit of crunch to it, but maybe not enough. I mean, I I would imagine it's not horrible. It's not like putting ketchup on a Reese's, which we did on the noon hour one day, or I shouldn't say we. I did, and it was disgusting. Also, ketchup and coffee.

Not good. Just because you've seen me do something online doesn't mean that I think it's good. K? I've eaten crickets online many times. I mean, they're they're not bad.

Ketchup on a Reese's is way worse than a cricket. Cricket doesn't really have any kind of flavor. It's just crunchy. Yeah. Alright.

Anyway, let's see here. I always thought that when movies or TV shows feature someone talking in their sleep and they just spout random silly nonsense, that it was mostly for comedic effect and wasn't really a reflection of real life. No. My partner talks in his sleep and it's always absolute random silly nonsense. The most recent one was in a tone of dismay.

There's ice cream all over the stairs, followed by a drawn out, bro. He also periodically giggles in his sleep, which is, adorable. Yeah. There have been times when someone is talking to me while I'm falling asleep, and I think I've started to say, you know, just random bizarre things as I drift into the dream world. And they're like, what are you talking about?

Oh, sorry. Sorry. I was dozing off. Dozing off happens. So all of these so far, I don't think they're really like game breakers.

You know, these are just, silly things and not too, not too shabby. I would imagine if we kept digging deeper, we'd find some more bothersome incidents that people have experienced after moving in with somebody but yeah oh here's me he sets tons of alarms but none actually wake him up well when you live by yourself you can get away with hitting snooze like 10,000,000,000 times if you've got someone else in the room that kind of naturally motivates you to get up my alarms do wake me up but immediately, I just hit snooze. I've got three of them set in the morning, and then they start, kind of compounding, you know, as you hit snooze on one, then the next one goes till, you know, about 5AM. I've got alarms going off about every one to two minutes, and that gets me out of bed. But if I had somebody there, I'm I'm sure I'd crawl out of bed.

First alarm because you don't wanna be rude. You know? Alright. Anyway, move in with somebody before you go do that legal thing. Alright?

Gotta be nothing worse than you know, you just get hitched. Alright. We're moving in together, and then you discover again you're living with a psychopath. So good luck to you. Well, I guess we could take a look at the rock and roll hall of fame nominees for this year.

This was announced either this morning or last night or something. Anyhow, the nominees, which I guess not all of them will actually make it in, would be The White Stripes, Soundgarden, Mariah Carey, Oasis, Outkast, Phish, Joy Division, Cyndi Lauper, Billy Idol, Manna, Joe Cocker, Chubby Checker, Bad Company, and the Black Crows. All right. You know, one of these days, maybe they'll get around to just calling it the music hall of fame. You know, I'd still go check out the rock and roll hall of fame if for some reason I was in Cleveland but, I don't know.

Can can rock just not have a thing that everybody else doesn't need to barge in on? It's It's kinda like the Grammys. A lot of times you see some stuff in them rock categories and you're like, I don't know. What artists should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame that are not? Let's take a look at, some of these other artists that were have not been nominated and see if any, I would say, deserve the spot more than some of those artists.

Like, you know, Oasis? I don't know what it is. I know they're popular, but I have never been able to get into Oasis, and I'm a big Beatles fan. You would think since Oasis sounds very much like the Beatles that I'd be into it, but no. No.

Just not my thing. Alright. Motorhead. I mean, come on. What what bigger face do you have in rock or metal than Lemmy?

What? Ozzy? That's about it. Ozzy's got nominated twice. You know who wrote mama I'm coming home?

Lemmy. That's right. Yeah. I'd say Motorhead deserves to be in the rock and roll hall of fame before Oasis, before Mariah Carey. You know?

I don't even know who Mana is. Is that bad? Is that bad? Have I failed as a music person? Alright.

Iron Maiden, another pretty big band. You've got, Megadeth, Alice in Chains. You're gonna put OASIS in before Alice in Chains? Come on now. Come on.

Give me a break. Okay? Sorry. I'm I'm kind of an oasis hater. They're just the Gallagher brothers, they're such unlikable turds that you could probably ask me about just about anybody.

And I'm gonna be like, yeah, they deserve to be in the rock and roll hall of fame more than OASIS. But yeah, there there are there are tons. Lincoln Park, Lincoln Park. You're gonna put Oasis in before Lincoln Park. Lincoln Park is one of the biggest rock bands of all time.

I can't believe Lincoln Park didn't make it in. That's kind of crazy. I mean, I could see why you'd put Chubby Checker, why you'd put, Bad Company, Joe Cocker, Billy Idol, Cyndi Lauper, Joy Division, Phish. I mean, Outkast is a legendary rapper. I mean Mariah Carey is a superstar.

Again, this is it's just because it's called the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame that I go kind of I don't know about that. Well anyway, it it's like the Grammys once again. Kind of predictable. Everybody's gonna shake their heads, and I think they know that they get people like me talking about it year after year, so I don't think we'll see any changes to the nomination process or the name of the actual hall of fame. Is there anything rock and roll about Mariah Carey?

Did she ever, like, get completely unhinged in trash hotel rooms or anything like that? I don't know a lot about Mariah Carey's history. I just know some of the songs. Alright. Well, anyway, there you go.

There are your nominees for the year. You're welcome. Alright. Let's talk about Jack White who was one of the nominees for the rock and roll hall of fame. He's in the news as he made a statement that, some fans are getting upset about saying fans demanding long sets don't know real rock shows.

Alright. Now I have been to short shows that were awesome. Generally, those were shows with local bands, you know, or punk shows, things like that where thirty minutes of two minute songs, you know, it feels like you're getting, you know, a decent amount of material might be getting, you know, 15 tracks at a thirty minute punk show, But he's saying, you know, back in the day, the Beatles and Renones played 30 sets. If I could, I would at this same moment in my performing life. Right.

As someone who has performed live many times, I can tell you it can be a bit tiring, you know, especially if you're screaming metal vocals. Very exhausting. And I'm sure for drummers, you know, quite the workout to do an epic length set. But you know like for my band we had a lot of long songs so it kind of sucked when we would get a twenty or thirty minute set it's like well what two songs should we play? Alright.

Imagine you pay, like, I don't know, a hundred bucks to go to a show. Tickets have gotten to be pretty expensive. If the headliner played for thirty minutes, I think I would be kind of, frustrated. I would not feel like I got my money's worth. So yeah.

You go see the white stripes or something, thirty minutes of music. That's what the opening band does. You know? I know that, yes, the Beatles used to go play a stadium, do thirty minutes of, their pop tunes, and leave. But times are different now, Jack.

We need more we need more music than that. It's like when you go see Tool. You know? They might play for an hour and forty five minutes, but they're still only playing, like, 10 songs. I always walk away from a tool show wanting more.

Like, you guys should have played a few more tracks. Give me one of them Foo Fighters sets. Three hours. Now I'm not demanding three hour sets out of bands, but I think fans would appreciate it. Yeah.

You go see your favorite band. You get three hours of music. That'd be awesome. If I could get a three hour tool show, I would be stoked. I'd be pumped.

But, you know, those guys are pretty old too. You know, you can't really be like, alright, dudes that are in your sixties. Come on. Three hours of live music. I bet Danny Carey could do it, though.

He's the man. Little bit of pussy fur on a Wednesday morning. Wish that their Susanta two point o tour was coming somewhere close to here. One of the best shows I saw last year. Was so good.

Would love to see that lineup again. Puscifer, A Perfect Circle, and Primus. That's an all star lineup. Oh, well, I shouldn't be complaining. We have lots of great shows coming to the region.

Way more than I could ever possibly attend. Next one up, Poppy. Gonna be pretty fun. I'm pretty stoked to go see Poppy live. Haven't seen her.

Do a live show before. Doing an interview at the show. That'll be fun. And it's looking pretty good on getting some of that stage time in Salt Lake City, so that'll either go great or bad. Hey.

What's up, everybody? Crickets. Oh, that would suck. That would suck. Generally, if there's any activity on the stage, people tend to cheer because they think, that means the show's about to happen.

So, hopefully, Salt Lake crowds are as gracious and nice as the crowds here in East Idaho when I've taken the stage. Y'all always make me feel very welcome. Yeah. Might never show my face in Salt Lake City again. Alright.

Speaking of shows, been a while since I checked out our event calendar here, probably since last week. But I know Peaches has been adding shows left and right, so let's take a look at the next shows coming our way. Now t x two is supposed to be in Boise at the Neurolux on the fifteenth. That would be Saturday. I did see a post from them on social media.

I think their singer was sick, but, hopefully, by the weekend, things will be doing better. Really nice guys. Met him at the, Ice Nine Kills Show few months ago or many months ago. That was a while back, wasn't it? Anyway, great young dudes.

Hopefully, they get feeling better and, keep blowing up. The plot in you withholding absence and boundaries coming up on the nineteenth. Seeing boundaries would be pretty cool. They're really heavy if you haven't listened to boundaries. Same night in Salt Lake, you know, just down the road from the depot, metro music hall decapitated with incantation.

That's good lineup. And then the following night you got saliva at the complex in Salt Lake with, kingdom collapse. That big disturbed show with three days grace and seven dust is hitting the Idaho Center on the twenty fifth. So that's coming up really fast. Dream theater's gonna be in Salt Lake at the Maverick Center.

You got throne, helmet, catch your breath, star set doing acoustic shows in Boise and, Salt Lake City. Steel Panther's gonna be in Boise. That would be a lot of fun. Intervals counterparts. And then, yes, poppy, which, I'm pretty stoked on.

Should be a pretty fun show. So if you wanna find out about great rock shows in the region, we got you hooked up with one easy stop. Just go check out that calendar at riverbendmediagroup.com/calendar. Let's take a trip to Florida. It's so funny.

A man was caught on a home surveillance camera crashing his lawnmower straight into a mailbox. Gulf Coast News Reporter Madison Adams spoke with several neighbors who say this isn't the first time they've seen someone in their neighborhood slam into a mailbox. So this guy's on a riding lawnmower, and he's standing up while riding it, goes crashing into a a mailbox surrounded by bricks and just does a flip over the front. Yeah. Like the, three little pigs said, you know, you gotta build it out of concrete.

Mhmm. The big bad Florida man wolf gonna come your way. See what we have. Florida man episode twenty eight sixty. Happens every day.

Welcome to Florida. Sorry for the loud crash, but that's what it sounds like when a riding mower hits a bunch of bricks. Yeah. For for driving while intoxicated on a lawnmower. The Lee County Sheriff's Office is investigating after a man riding a lawnmower mowed down at least two mailboxes.

Okay. I was like, why do they just assume he was drinking? Then he stood up after wrecking the mower. And, yeah, to stumble like that, he might have been a little bit disoriented from the wreck. But, based on the stumbling, I've seen drunk people stumble before.

This guy is definitely hammered. It's off Robin Road in San Carlos Park. Deputies are working to identify the man behind the wheel. Egregious. Absolutely.

How hard could it be to find the guy? I mean, he's gotta be from the neighborhood, and they said it wasn't the first time. Disgusting, but it's so funny. I can watch it a hundred times. Me too.

Hope they, hope they get him. Friday afternoon, Michael Samolinski's mailbox was destroyed. His neighbor had it all on video. She said this is probably gonna be the most Floridian experience you've ever, experienced. Just a few hundred feet down the road, another mailbox was hit.

Somehow, it's still standing. It's coming right out of the garage. Man left a Steelers hat and a pair of sunglasses behind. You and Oh, I'm glad they ever left. Paid for these mailboxes to be fixed.

Be a man and turn yourself in because you shouldn't be you shouldn't be doing this. In San Carlos Park, Madison. Do you think Florida man turns himself in for mowing down all of these mailboxes? I'm doubting it myself. Ugh.

Needed a good laugh this morning. I'm gonna, post a meme that I made on our socials. And I think it'll either make people mad or make them laugh. I don't know. I'm not sure.

It's a, it's a risky post, but I think it's funny, you know, it's pertinent to the current, timeline we're living in, like a meme that I saw that said, you know, we're living in the timeline where, Biff went back and got the sports off the neck. I think the meme might be good. You know, it's very local. People outside of the area aren't gonna get it. But, anyway, I'll go do that right now, and, we'll see what kind of response it gets.

Alright. We've kept it pretty pretty lighthearted so far today, but right now, I felt like getting into some some creepy material. Let's talk about bugs. Let's talk about cockroaches. Oh, they're so disgusting.

Right? You ever seen the really big ones? I don't know what they're called, but the really big ones. First time I ever saw a giant cockroach was at the airport in, oh, which one was it? I guess it would have been the airport in, Cabo.

You know? Way down about as far south as you can go in Mexico. I just saw one on the wall. It was huge. I was like, oh, hideous.

Well, anyway, I hope you don't deal with those at your home, because there's a lot of creepy factoids about cockroaches. You know, yesterday, what what were we talking about? All kinds of different, inconveniences or things that people are afraid of that they don't need to be because they're harmless, like moths, which can be poisonous. Alright. Well, if you're afraid of cockroaches, there might be some good reasons.

Like, they bite. They do bite. It's rare, but they do it. They're cannibals. They eat each other.

It's gross. Scrutie. They can survive a week with no head. No head. Survive for a week.

They're still running around, scurrying about. How long do you think they can go without food? You know, you try to leave no crumbs out. You're like, I gotta get rid of these cockroaches in my house. About a month.

Yeah. One month. No food. And a week of that without a head. They can approach, two miles an hour, which I guess for their size, that's pretty quick.

I mean, when you, if you watch video of them scurrying about, they move at a pretty high speed. Oh, they also love beer according to this article. Probably because there's sugar in it, right? Just what you need. An army of, hammered cockroaches running around your house.

Haven't eaten for a month. Don't have heads. Well, you could train them. Yeah. Set up your own cockroach circus.

Mhmm. You can do it. It's gross and weird, but I don't know. You might be able to make a few bucks. You might be able to go viral online.

There's probably gotta be somebody with a cockroach carnival online on YouTube. They can hold their breath underwater for how long? How long do you think you can stick? You know, I'm I'm gonna drown this cockroach. I'll teach it a lesson.

Forty minutes. They're indestructible, and some of them can fly. Some of them can fly, and this must come from some kind of, owners of these hideous creatures. Yeah. They apparently like to be pet like a cat.

They like the pressure. You know? You just push down on their back. Can you imagine? My friend Joe had a, tarantula.

Alright? Now I am not down with spiders. Alright? I'm a wuss. I like kittens and puppies.

That's about it. Bunnies, little cute furry things. Tarantulas are furry, but I'm not gonna call them, cute. Not for me. And I remember one time he made me hold it or I don't I guess he didn't make me, but he convinced me to hold it.

And I was so terrified, Namely that I was gonna, like, twitch and send it flying. Like, ah, get it alive for me. So I made him take it back as quickly as possible. It's the only time I've ever held a tarantula. I think I'd hold a tarantula before a cockroach, though.

They're just gross. You know? I don't know don't know if there's, as scary looking as a tarantula, but they're grody. So, anyway, there you go. Just some factoids to creepy crawl through your brain this morning.

We'll be back with freak news. Sure. You've heard me say, I wish I could find a nice side hustle to earn a little bit of extra cash. You know, there's there's just never enough money. You know?

Can't seem to just get ahead. Not in this day and age. Well, I finally found it. I don't think, my lady's gonna be very impressed with this idea, but, if this guy can do it, so can I? This guy makes about, $20,000 a year putting videos out of himself farting.

Alright? I'm not gonna read his, description here of how he gets himself all, pumped up or I guess bloated so that he can unleash these videos. I don't know. I would feel a little bit awkward doing things in the same manner he does because alright, this guy is like some kind of a bodybuilder. He's all buff and apparently wearing nothing but a jockstrap, he just farts right in the camera then leaves messages like, oh, wish you were here to smell this.

But I mean $20 a year? That's that's about the perfect amount of extra dough I need. That would be just right. Alright. Well, I think I'd have to wear a mask or something.

You know, one to, cut back on the smell, but also I don't know if I'd wanna show my face. He's proud. He's really proud. I mean, I guess if you can get paid $20 a year for your farts, you probably should be proud. Do whatever you can to make the dough.

Let's see. What else do we have here? An owner of a restaurant in Sydney, Australia has been told she needs to censor her profanity laced fortune cookies. She used to special order these for a restaurant, but apparently, the manufacturer accidentally started mixing these profane fortune come on. How how bad could they be?

Of course, they're not gonna show me any of the, the messages, are they? You are capable of great things, but all you do is look at your phone all day. You won't be that great. Sorry. That's not offensive.

I I bet the news just didn't wanna show the really offensive ones. You know, if any local restaurants would like to start doing this, that would be great. That'd be fantastic. Next time I go pick up some, some Chinese food somewhere, got that fortune cookie for dessert, open it up, and it just rips you to pieces, that'd be that'd be fantastic. Let's see.

Finally, yesterday was apparently what they call red Tuesday, the most popular day for breakups prior to Valentine's Day because I I I guess people get stressed about Valentine's Day. Listen. You you don't have to spend a bunch of money on somebody. You can just get them something nice. Send them a nice card or whatever.

Tell them I love you. You don't have to go all out. Now, you know, if you got a little spare dough, sure. Yeah. Get your significant other something nice, but you don't need to dump them just because you're broke.

That's kind of ridiculous as far as I'm concerned. So if you made it to today, congratulations. Congratulations. I don't know. Valentine's Day is still a few days away, though.

I hope you don't get dumped, you know, prior to Valentine's Day. Or if you do, I hope you haven't spent any money. Hopefully, the item's returnable. You can get some of that dough back and spend it on yourself. Yeah.

Get yourself a camera set up so you can record, fart videos and make $20 a year like that that buff guy. Alright. It's enough freak news for now. I'll be back with more stupid here in a minute. Alright.

What's going on in the world of entertainment? Let's talk about a couple upcoming shows making their return to TV this weekend. I'm pretty stoked. Only recently got into Yellowjackets, which is a really fun show. It's maybe not for everybody.

I I won't get into specific content because I don't wanna spoil anything, but I'd say it treads into the world of horror for sure, but, really, really good show. And on, Friday, Valentine's Day, making its return to TV, so that's gonna be really cool. Really cool. Also making its return on Sunday, an excellent show on HBO called The White Lotus. Now, if you haven't seen the first two seasons of that, highly recommended.

Actually interviewed one of the stars of that program a number of months ago. What was his name? It's too early for me to remember. I should because it's it's the guy who played Uncle Rico in Napoleon Dynamite. I was chatting with him about Napoleon Dynamite when it occurred to me, oh, yeah.

You're one of the main guys in The White Lotus. I don't know who's gonna be in season three aside from Walton Goggins who is just a great actor. He's so funny. I don't know what it is about him but he's just funny. He played the, what's the name for the character?

Jeez. Should have prepped this one out a little bit better. But you know he played the, kind of undead guy in fallout. There's a word for that guy, but I can't think of what it is. And he did an awesome job in that show.

Wonder when fallout's coming back to TV. The first season of fallout was fantastic. If you haven't seen it, highly recommended. You don't need to be a fan of the games to enjoy it. It's really, really good.

But, yeah, I'm pretty stoked. The White Lotus, definitely a show that took me by surprise. The way they wrap things up both seasons, really, really fun. Yeah. If you're looking to, binge some TV in the next few days, catch up on yellow jackets and the white lotus.

It's looking like we're gonna get some snow. Looks like it's gonna be cold. Perfect time to just hunker down and watch some good programming, and both of those shows, can't recommend them enough. Also, good time to give a watch or a rewatch to The Last of Us since the new season of the last of us is gonna be dropping in April. Very excited for that one.

If you're a long time listener, I'm sure you've heard me talk about it plenty, but I I like to keep you entertained, you know, Often enough, you tune into this show. I'm failing. So I try to give you some other options if you want guaranteed quality entertainment. What's happening, Peaches? Good morning.

Good morning. You brought some kind of a song to my attention. Yeah. Because I found this Instagram page called Disturb Everywhere. And what this guy does is he's, like, everybody's nightmare in public.

He'll show up with a speaker, blast this particular song in front of everyone. Everyone's screaming at him, but he has headphones in pretending he's listening to those, but he actually has a giant JBL speaker on his side. Gotcha. Alright. I've never heard of this.

The song's called Unhealthy Zoglin by Danica House. Now you gotta, like, look go fast forward about twenty five seconds in. Okay. One of the best screams of all time. K.

Hang on. This is the part that plays the video. Yeah. That I could see that being annoying out in public. That's pretty funny.

That's pretty funny. You're gonna play that in Jade's office. Katie, we got a song for vibes. Vibe one zero three. New ad.

Well, because of the Instagram page, it probably is streaming pretty well. I bet it is, but, I also don't like people changing the channel. Being annoying in public can be pretty fun. Have you ever walked into a grocery store and just let out and, you know, brutal metal screen? I'd never say, am I gonna start barking in a store like that meth head?

No. No. Just walked in and, you know, just walked in and That was pretty similar to that guy. Yeah. It it's fun to do.

Now I don't do that anymore because I'm old and that's, you know, more of a young person behavior. But, there was a few times just walked into grocery stores and slid out a metal scream. What? I don't know. It seemed like it would be fun.

And, it was. It's satisfying to make a lot of noise in public. You know? And, you know, unless you're yelling threats, you know, I I just go, I'm excited to be here at Ridley's in Pocatello. Is Ridley's still open?

I don't know if it is. Anyway, that was the grocery store by my house at a young irresponsible age, you know, about, 20. I I don't see you doing that now at all. No. The little screams?

No. No. Only occasionally if it's like karaoke or something like that. I know. I wish I saw you do it the lamb of God at karaoke.

Heard your break about that. Yeah. Yeah. I, didn't expect to. It was an interesting karaoke setup because I haven't done any karaoke in years, and I guess the libraries that are available are much larger than they were when I was growing up.

So, you know, I was asking him where the book was because usually there's this big book and you flip through and find your songs. He's just like, well, what what artist do you want? I'm like, I don't know. Do you got Lamb of God? And he had, like, tons of songs.

So I was like, yeah. Let's go with the redneck so I can say a, you know, naughty word over and over and over again. In front of Jade too. That's funny. In front of Jade.

Out in public. Wow. In public at high volt. But it you know, I was performing. I was performing.

So I guess it's not the same as just screaming naughty words for no reason. Yeah. Because I do that when I walk into Walmart. I start saying those naughty words, like, get the out of my way, you know, that type of thing. Yeah.

Yeah, dude. That's not good, peaches. That's how you get thrown out of Walmart. Not gonna be able to, you know, pick up some of those delicious, pizzas and things that you can only get at Walmart. Delicious pizzas.

Yeah. They got the best frozen pizzas, man. I don't eat frozen pizzas. Why not? It's it's frozen pizzas below me, you know.

Then you haven't tried Below me. You haven't tried a couple different brands they got over there at Walmart. No. There's a brand called Better Goods. That's one of them.

That's the one that The Woody Show has been raving about. The it's excellent. It's excellent pizza for sure. That's probably well, the UNO kind is a different type of pizza. It's like Chicago style with the sauce on the top.

It's almost like eating pasta or something. It's so thick. But that and the better goods kind. The meat one. I think it's called like carnivore.

It's some something like that. That that one's really good. I the cheese one, I was like, meh. But it's hard to make a cheese pizza exciting. So, yeah, I wish WinCo would, pick up those brands.

That that would be great. First time I tried an UNO pizza was from a grocery outlet. And I after I tried one, I went and bought a bunch of them, but now they don't have any. They just got those ones with the, cauliflower crust and gluten free crust. The LA pizza.

I like that. No. I'm just gonna hate that stuff. You know what? There's lots of gluten free stuff that's fine, but bread, it just sucks.

Gluten free pizza sucks. Have you ever been to a Pieology? I don't think so. We had those in California. I don't know if they're out here anywhere, but, it's basically like Chipotle for pizza.

Chipotle for pizza, You just you just go down the line and go, I want that topping, that topping, that topping, and Oh, interesting. Interesting. So yeah. Yeah. If you wanna give some quality frozen pizza I've tried, like, every kind of frozen pizza.

And, you know, you if you're gonna have a crappy one, you just get Totino's. You know? Get the dog. Pizza rolls. Those those are good.

But occasionally, you just want a a a regular old square pizza. Yeah. You play Russian roulette with those pizza rolls. It's fun. Which one's cold?

Which one's gonna burn your mouth? Have you seen the I think you sound you sound like that guy in the song after you burn your mouth. Hello and welcome to the program. Alright. Let's dig into some repurposed content from Cracked.

Good to see I'm not the only one who repurposes content from Reddit for my my place of entertainment here, this show. Alright. We've got posts from people talking about their family members and the crazy crimes they've committed. So, I mean, I was almost gonna say everyone has one of these in their family. I hope not.

I hope you don't have, you know, a family member that you're like, oh, please don't bring that guy up. But you might. Hopefully not at this level of, crazy here. This person posted, my dad's cousin was a police officer who robbed banks in the eighties. The other officers in his precinct joked around about how much he looked like the police sketches right up until he was caught in the act.

There there are probably more stories like that out there. Not super crazy here. This one I I don't know. I guess, gotta do what you gotta do if somebody's stealing your stuff. This guy says his father was in the military, came back from a deployment to find that his girlfriend was stealing all of his things and money due to having access to his bank accounts on account of being away.

He stole a military helicopter and flew it home to stop her. Now I don't know what kind of fines you have to pay for stealing a military helicopter. I hope you've you've got a lot of money that you're trying to prevent the the girlfriend from stealing there. This person says my grandfather kidnapped and held hostage a college chemistry major in order to teach him how to make meth. Yes.

It sounds like Breaking Bad. I know. This happened in the seventies. Perhaps where Vince Gilligan got a little bit of influence for that, or a little bit of inspiration for that legendary program, Breaking Bad. Alright.

Let's see here. A university friend of mine who now owns a $20,000,000 software company did this as a kid. Hacked MSN accounts of, cute girls in grade eight, messaged desperate boys in grade eight from said account, asked them for parents' credit card information, traded credit cards with overseas thieves to avoid tracing, bought things. I guess he didn't get caught, Or if he did, well, he's sitting pretty well with his $20,000,000 software company. Jeez.

Come on now here. What else do we have? Guy whose dad robbed a cookie truck and they had cookies for months. It's like the people stealing eggs. What are you gonna do with them?

Well, I got dozen eggs for $5 just parked on some corner out on a rural road like somebody slinging oranges. Alright. Let's see. What else do we have here? Where's that one about the woman who disappeared because she didn't wanna go to jury duty?

That one was really funny. There's a there's a lot of these. I mean, apparently, a lot of people out there got family members who did stupid things, that ended up potentially getting them in trouble, but not always. Like this woman, my great aunt disappeared off the face of the earth after her daughter's wedding, and nobody had any clue what happened. Foul play wasn't suspected or anything.

However, her shotgun was missing. Well, a month ago, we found out she passed away last year. She had apparently skipped jury duty to go to the wedding, and instead of doing anything logical, she straight up ran away and lived in hidings in a backwood town in Washington. No letters or anything, just decided the most effective way to get around jury duty to go to a wedding was to live in hiding for thirty years. Wow.

I mean, jury duty's gotta suck, but still, you gotta have a real love for living off grid to be willing to go to, you know, that kind of a level to avoid something as simple as jury duty. Just a heads up. If you've been using AI to assist you in your work, should probably double check it. Was reading an article from the BBC where they tested OpenAI's Chat GPT, Microsoft's Copilot, Google's Gemini, and Perplexity AI, tested them on their ability to summarize news from the BBC. And I guess, as far as the ability of AI to accurately summarize this news, they didn't feel that it did a very good job.

So, yeah, you you know, I use AI from time to time around here. Like, for the recap description of my morning show that I put in the podcast description, yeah, it takes way less time to just dump a transcript into chat GPT and go, alright. Summarize this in paragraph form for me. Then I fix it up a little bit because sometimes, yeah, it doesn't accurately deconstruct what I was trying to say. But for the most part, it's pretty handy.

However, using the news to test this is probably not the best idea because the news itself can't accurately summarize news. You know? I've talked plenty about that. You know, if you take a look at all the big, huge, massive national networks that most people get their news from, little bit of spin going on there. Little bit of, information that doesn't seem to make its way in.

You know, can't seem to get just a nice straight now here's the news style of reporting. Here's the facts. And it's funny because, you know, now East Idaho news is getting all this flack, you know, for articles they post. And East Idaho news, I don't see them putting a a articles. They just kinda post the news and people lose their minds about it.

So, yeah. Maybe they should, take the chat g p t route. Might make people more happy if they get slanted news. Should be getting nicer as time goes on, though we'll probably have to put up with snow to make up for the increased temperature. Which would you rather have?

Frigid cold or piles of snow? I don't like either. Not a big fan of either. Alright. Let's see here.

What was I looking at? What was I reading through? What is a 100% legal scam that we still accept as normal? Alright. I better throw out allegedly because I haven't read any of these, responses and this is an opinion based forum.

So somebody online calling these scams does not mean I'm saying they are scams. And I'm guessing if they are legal scams that we still accept as normal, I'm guessing we don't necessarily accept them as normal. These are going to be things that people complain about. Like, okay. Right at the top here, convenience fees.

Yeah. Have you ever met anybody who's like, yeah. This is just how it is. I mean, I guess if you wanna get yourself concert tickets, you're gonna pay the convenience fee. You know, you're gonna rent yourself a room some places.

Gonna pay the convenience fee. It's like resort fees in Vegas. Now that's a scam. Allegedly. Yeah.

Like, you rent a room in Vegas in the middle of winter. Nobody's going out to the pool. K. Nobody's using the resort parts of the resort. Alright.

Of course, you're gonna see Ticketmaster and Live Nation pop up in there. But again, they're in cahoots. Alright. You can't just blame them for the concert ticket situation. Sadly, you have to point a finger at the artists as well.

K? And plenty of other people. Planned obsolescence? Obsulence? Anyway, you know, like, making a phone that after a few years, it just stops working?

Yeah. Appliances seem to crap out. The way you hear that phrase, yeah, they don't make things like they used to. Yeah. I'd I'd say that's kinda scam ish if they're deliberately designing things to break over time.

Let's see what else we got here. The US health care system? Yeah. That's that's pretty bad. That's pretty bad.

Yeah. We've got good doctors, but the system? Man, it's messed up. I won't even start diving into that. Let's see.

Insurance. That's why you call the advocates injury attorneys. Alright. Having a problem after an accident? Mhmm.

Yeah. Nobody wants to deal with insurance companies. Nickel and diming you. Denying claims left to right. That reminds me.

And I need to make a phone call. Anytime they can deny your claim, they will. Alright. This probably isn't a very fun, topic. Here's all the things that suck.

Replacement ink cartridges. Well, luckily, not many things are getting printed in this day and age. Contracts and things, you can do them digitally. Almost kinda weird when you gotta sit down and, like, fill out a bunch of paperwork by hand. You're like, why am I doing this?

It's 2025. Get out of here with that. I'm gonna get out of here with this. For the podcast. That's right.

There we go. Okay. Ladies of the Khabarov army, we need your calls right now on this very important topic of, does being bald significantly reduce your dating chances as a man? I was just sitting there in the Cannonball studio, and I was going through the different sounding. And sure enough, right as I turn on K Bear, calling all bald dudes being yelled by you.

So I'm like, okay. I'm coming in here. Alright. So now, ladies, you don't need to try to make me impeaches feel better about ourselves either. Alright?

I know I'm ugly. You can trash me. Yeah. Like, I guarantee that personality is the only reason I've ever had a girlfriend. It was not appearance.

Because before I was bald, it was crooked teeth. Then I get the teeth fixed, and I go bald. So now bald with, fairly straight teeth. But, yeah. Jill called, and she said that there was nothing at all sexier than a bald man with a nice beard.

Now Jill could just be being nice because she's at the front desk, but she sounded she sounded like she truly believed what she was saying. I don't think Jill fakes what she says. I think she speaks her mind clearly. I think so too. We've heard we've heard her plenty of times talk about the songs in the Cabaret Library.

Oh, that that's true. That's true. And we've talked about the bald subreddit. This isn't even from the bald subreddit, but you see all those posts from those dudes that are like, should I do it? Should I finally give up?

And it's, like, halfway gone. Yeah. And it's, like, every single time dude, shave your head. Just shave your head. Pretty much universally in the responses I'm seeing online, it's, you know, shaving the head's always better than the going bald frazzled, look.

Right. You know? You don't want that skull it. Yeah. You don't want the skull it.

You don't want the horseshoe, the comb over. K Bear, you're live on the show. Who's this? Hi, Lydia. Lydia, what's up?

What you got on, Bald Guys? I met my husband, like, twelve years ago, and he was shaving his head because he didn't like being redhead. So I had no problem with it. It actually made him sexier. Very nice.

Very nice. So he didn't have a balding problem. He just didn't like his hair color? It was hair color the way that his hair grew out when it was, you know, longish. But yeah.

Okay. It was a personal choice for him, and it's it's he was still very sexy. Alright. Well, so far, we're two for two, Peaches. Two ladies have told us bald guys look good, so we're we're doing okay.

We're trying to help out the other guys out there who are afraid to shave their heads. There's a lot of them that they just just need to get it done. But for whatever reason, I I don't know if it's they're afraid they won't be able to get a date. Yeah. Shave your head, fools.

Shave those heads. That's right. Well, thank you, Lydia, and I hope you have a great day today. Not a problem. You guys too.

Thank you. Peace. Yep. Bye. (208) 535-1015.

If any of you ladies out there want to either continue making us feel good about ourselves or, trash us. We know what we should do here. Fine with either. We should get Chantelle from the classy studio. Now we know what haircut Josh has because I think Jade's about the only one left in the building that, doesn't have a shaved head.

I mean, Justin doesn't, but I think Justin should give it a go. I'm not trying to say he doesn't have hair. I just think everybody should give it a shot once in a while. I shaved my head back when I had plenty of hair. It was kinda cool, literally.

You know? Little did you know you were foreshadowing the future. I know. Maybe I should have never shaved it, and I'd still have hair. You know?

But I you you can kinda tell. You look at your dad, and you're like, that's what's gonna happen. Yeah. You know? Right.

So you might as well cave burrow. Thanks, dad. Yeah. Those genetics, man. Always messing you up.

But, yeah, pretty much universally in the comments online, shaved bald is a better look than grasping at straws and bad comb overs. Some guys just need to let it go at some point. One of the best ways to encourage yourself to shave your head would be to go check out r slash bald on Reddit. And then you look at those guys and go, oh, do I look like that? If you do, shave your head.

Or you go to Bald Cafe and that guy hypes you up to do it? Bald Cafe. They pump you up. It's one guy who did the same thing. He was balding for years, finally shaved it, and then sure enough, he's now had this whole series of, like, him motivating other guys to, like, go for it.

Yeah. And they've they've it's boosted their confidence completely. Now what do you think? Because I was encouraging you to shave your head for a long time. Where are you at now that you've had it shaved for a while?

How do you feel about it? I mean, I haven't had the reactions of, like, my family back home or anything like that because they haven't seen it in person. Ah, gotcha. I but everybody else who has seen it seemed to think it looked pretty good. The only person who hates it is my mom.

Oh, well, you know, that's your mom. You know? I talked about, tattoos recently, and it's like, if your parents don't want you to get a tattoo, it's your body. You do what you want. They'll get over it eventually.

Yeah. But I also think if I ever get one, it's, like, it's trendy now, but once I reach my, like, sixties or seventies, I'm like, okay. It's gonna look it's gonna look good. Oh, let's look up let's look up old people with tattoos. Because my grandpa also got a tattoo when he was, when he was young.

And, yeah, he got that stupid mom heart thing. But besides the design, he just hated it. He's like, this is the stupidest thing I've ever got. Well, tattoo quality now is completely different than it was, like, you know, however many years ago your grandpa got a tattoo. He might have got it, like, you know, on a boat somewhere.

I'm trying to figure out what the year before. 1926? Yeah. They got they got way better technology. Look at this old guy right here, Peaches.

I know you gotta come way around to see these things now, but look at that guy. He's sleeved out. He's old. He's gotta be, like, 80. I think he looks pretty cool.

I think his tattoos look alright. I look like middle Pablo Escobar. What was that? I know. I'm looking at pictures of old people with tattoos now, and that guy was bald.

Yeah. He he was also bald. Lots of bald old guys with tattoos on here. And I I think it looks good, man. I wouldn't worry.

You can always get them redone too. You know, because the ones I had when I was 18, I've had to redo and touch them up because just over time, they start fading and the lines get you know, they're they're not quite as crisp. So Did you see? Go get it touched up. Pete Davidson got all of his removed?

No. I didn't see that. Yeah. Oh, it went I don't know. I don't think I'd ever get one removed.

I'd just get get a cover up. Well, I think he also didn't have, like, an intricate design or anything like that. It was just, like, those little doodles all over. Like little patchwork tattoos Yeah. All over himself, which is an interesting look.

I like it when they kinda all tie together, you know, big images. But I don't know. It's cheaper to get the small ones. So, yeah, less time sitting in the chair. Anyway, y'all, I guess, There was two women that said yes, and that was it.

All the rest were like, just show them play the music. Yeah. Well, fine. Then we're gonna leave it at all of you guys who have a bald head. All the ladies find you very, very good looking because that we have a % in favor.

Two. Well, who's gonna call in and trash us? I was hoping somebody would. I mean, we've got some snarky listeners. Like, where where's Lauren?

But then we but then we pull up their profile picture, and we roast them back. Or you pull up their profile picture, and it's like, hey. Your friend's bald. What are you talking about? Thank you again for tuning in to the Victor Wilt Show.
