The Viktor Wilt Show

Morning. Welcome to the Viktor Wilt Show. That was Ghost. I am well, Viktor Wilt. How you doing?

Happy Valentine's Day. Guess we'll have to play lots of love songs today. Hunter's Moon could be one. Just gotta pay attention to the lyrics a little bit. Anyway, speaking of ghost, I was scrolling Reddit, and ghost is celebrating Valentine's Day in some kind of way.

I guess you can sign up to get some kind of a Valentine's message or something from papa the fifth, and they've set up a five is coming playlist on Spotify. And ghost fans on Reddit are currently trying to figure out what it means. What does this mean? So if you look at the first letter of every song in the playlist, it spells out satanized. Woah.

What does that mean? Well, I mean, we got Papa five is coming, so that's a good sign for new things from ghost. I mean, they could be saying we're gonna get evil once again because they they, you know, kind of, drifted away from the, you know, darker sounds, I would say, other than maybe, like, call me a little sunshine on the last album. The rest of it, pretty pretty upbeat for the most part. Well, I guess we're just gonna have to wait and find out what it means.

Right? I don't know. Ghost sometimes likes to drop little hints about what they're doing. So I think it's pretty interesting because it's a weird playlist. The the playlist doesn't really make much of any sense unless they were trying to spell something out like that.

I I think it's gotta be deliberate. So what's happening? I guess we're we're just gonna have to wait, but, hopefully, we'll find out something soon. But you know me, anytime there's new stuff from Ghost, I'm pretty excited about it. So I wanna know just as bad as everybody else.

What does it mean? Hope you're having a good Valentine's Day so far. If you haven't left your home yet and you're in East Idaho anyhow, it sucks outside. Cold, snowing. You know, my cat, Koopa, demanded to be let out this morning.

I'm like, dude, I gotta go to work, but I don't know if he knows what I gotta go to work means. So I just saw the cameras going off at my house that he was at the back door. Sorry, buddy. Gonna have to wait a few hours. He'll let you in after the show.

Yeah. Don't go outside if you don't need to. It might look fun, but snow is not fun. You know what is fun, though? Watching movies.

And, if you're looking for something great to watch with your significant other for Valentine's Day, as I was scrolling Reddit, the question was posted, The Human Centipede, is it really that bad? In the horror sub Reddit. Alright, dudes. You should probably not recommend The Human Centipede as a good Valentine's movie. Now it's interesting reading the conversation on here because most people, at least in the horror subreddit, view that movie kind of like I do where they're like, you know, it's not as bad as you think it's gonna be.

The second one, that's the one that's really bad. Like, really disgusting. The first one, it's more of a mad scientist. It's it is a comedy Alright It is It had to be intentional I mean the premise of the movie is funny Well, at least to me but I have kind of a gross sense of humor So, yeah, you should probably find something else for your your Valentine's date. But one of these days, maybe give it a shot.

You never know. You might really like that movie. I don't think most people do, but I've I've always pointed out that I find it to be, pretty funny myself. It's the Victor World Show. Valentine's Day.

Maybe you're trying to think of something fun to do. Sadly, it's not a good day for a road trip. But getting out of town, you know, taking that special someone to somewhere nice, It's a good way to spend your time. So let's talk about, creepy places you can take them. I saw a thread here about, road trips and little towns that gave you the creeps, like children of the corn vibes.

Now I'll admit, I really enjoy being out in the middle of nowhere where it is kinda creepy rolling into some of these small towns where the locals just kinda look at you, you know, and you're like, I don't I don't feel like these people really want me around here. Yeah. Just out in the middle of the desert somewhere. There's something about the wide open spaces and just being away from people. I don't know.

I find it, kind of satisfying. So maybe I'll find some good places to go here reading through this this thread. Alright. So the first response here this one's kind of long. And I wish they knew specific locations here.

I wish they didn't just say a bar in a tiny town in Southeastern Missouri. Alright. They said the town was miles away from any major highway. The bar was located in a former service station. Only one other car in the parking lot, presumably the bartender.

Stepped inside and there were two older men, one dressed in fishing gear sitting at a table shelling peanuts. They both stopped and stared at me, and after an uncomfortably long pause, one of them asked if I needed something. I was hoping for a beer, I answered. One of them got up, got me a can of Miller Lite from the fridge. I would have sat at the bar, but the counter has a lot of boxes and clutter, along with an enormous plastic jar of some sort of dried mystery snack.

Seemed like they didn't want people sitting there. One table had hornets' nests on it, and the other table was covered in, peanut shells, flyswatter, squirt guns, and a sledgehammer. Sat at the table with the hornet's nest, but then the guys told him to come sit down so he wouldn't have to drink alone. Yeah. These guys apparently just collect hornet's nest.

That's what they told him. They're like, there's a real small time frame when the hornets leave before birds destroy the, hornet's nest. So we take them. What are you gonna do with the hornet's nest? Apparently, set it on the bar and just leave it there.

And the guy told him, yeah. One time we didn't wait long enough and, went to cut into the, the hornet's nest, and all of a sudden the bar is swarming with hornets. Yeah. That would give me the creeps too. Let's see here.

This person says somewhere in Ohio stopped having some dinner, not feeling fast food, went to a local restaurant instead, only one around, Place was mostly empty table empty tables except one elderly couple and a big round table of maybe 10 people way in the back. Everyone went quiet when we walked in and a few people actively stared. We waited by the door for a few minutes before an employee approaches us and tells them their kitchen is super backed up. No way they could serve us. So back to the highway for food it was.

Yeah. That'd be a little unsettling. Okay. Here we go. This is what I'm talking about.

Travel down the loneliest road in Nevada. Just being out in the middle of nowhere, this person says they're a non American, took this drive. And while not some creepy horror, gave him a sense of scale for America as a place. I mean, you you can drive through Nevada for a long ways with a whole lot of nothing and you see a random house here and there and you're like, who who's living out here? What kind of hills have eyes situation is this?

I do like those kind of drives. Trying to think if I've ever driven through an area that kind of gave me the creeps. There's those two towns on the Arizona Utah border by Zion National Park, Colorado City and Hill Hildale. Driving through there is weird. That's for sure.

You you're you're definitely getting stared at. Feels like you get followed around. It's been a long time since I and I only drove through there, one time, but it was strange. I I didn't know where I was. I ended up seeing some documentaries about that place down the road, but, yeah, that that was one of the weirder areas I've traveled through.

People on here mention rolling into, very rural areas of the South, like rural Alabama or rural Virginia, Kentucky. Alright. Vidor, Texas. The residents hung sheets saying don't stop and go that way. That would be creepy.

You roll into a town and see a bunch of signs don't stop. It's like when you're driving around in the mountains outside of Dugway Proving Grounds, Utah, and they have all the signs about, radioactive area don't stop. You're like, what? Why am I here? What's wrong with me?

What am I doing? Out there, Utah Desert. Very creepy. Very creepy and weird out in the Utah Desert. Alright.

Let's see here. Oh, somebody mentioned, being in the mountains of Utah. So they were trying to make it back to Colorado, got off onto this one street town. There's a hardware store with a rusted model t Ford in the window through which I could see one very old guy talking to a slightly younger one. I went in and asked if they were open.

They said, no, we shut down twenty years ago, but how can we help you? Said I needed some wire to tie my exhaust up. And the younger guy said, I have some at my house down the street. I can give you a ride to get it. So British politeness insisted that I accept the serial killer's kind offer to help me by taking me to his murder house rather than hurt his feelings.

So I got in his truck. He gave me the wire and did not use it to tie me up and kill me, both of which I was grateful for. Turned out he'd returned to his old town to pack up his parents' house and visited the hardware store owner who he used to work for as high schooler. So I was you know, ended up not being creepy. If you want, local creepy and you don't wanna make a long drive, you can always, head over to Burley, which to me is the the creepiest place in East Idaho.

Yeah. It it is. Go there. I don't know. Maybe it's just me.

Yeah. I think musically today is going to be a Valentine's day themed show. As far as the content, well, I mean, so far, I've managed to tie everything into Valentine's Day even when talking about the human centipede. You know, it could be a nice, romantic Netflix and chill evening watching human centipede. Probably not.

But anyhow, I'm really kind of enjoying reading through these posts about road trips where people ended up in places that just screamed children of the corn vibes. This one's, pretty weird right here. Alright. We were on a road trip to visit family in another state and decided to take the long way to avoid turnpike fares so we would have more opportunities to stop to feed our young baby. Besides, you usually end up seeing some nice scenery and find nice little towns along the way when you get off the turnpikes and take the back roads.

Right? Well, maybe not always. Okay. Along the way, we needed to stop to feed the baby, saw a campground sign, so we thought that would be a neat place place to stop since it said it had cabins, a lake, a playground, etcetera. So we had our other young children with us.

Great place to take a break, have lunch, stretch our legs, blah blah blah. Okay. Figured we might have to pay a small entrance fee to get in, but to our surprise, the campground owners allowed us to use the facilities and playground at no charge, and we thought ourselves fortunate to have come across such nice people. Such a happy accident. Dun dun dun.

We parked by the playground, took out our food, set up, you know, blah blah blah lunch. After we ate, the two older kids played on the playground equipment with the campground owner's grandkids. The campground owners stayed around and chatted with us, which we felt was nice because they were telling us about the area. The campground seemed like pretty nice people. So I was watching the kids playing and just kinda half listened to their conversation, which went something like this.

My kids, we're on a trip. They're grandkids. You're not leaving from here. Yeah. Yeah.

You're not leaving from here. My kids, puzzled looks. Yes. We are. We're just gonna play for a while, then we're going.

My mom said so. Their grandkids, no. My grandma said you're staying like the last people that came here. Now I'm curious. I'm sure they're just talking about people that come to camp here.

My kids, no, we gotta go. We're going to a hotel tonight with a pool. It has a slide. Their grandkids, no, you're not. People always stay.

We make them. So at this point, the owner's grandkids' voices are loud and insistent, and I'm getting concerned because this is just getting weird. I tell my kids to come to the table and get cleaned up so we can leave because something feels off, which they seem really happy to do because they're getting freaked out too. Campground owners seem to notice their grandkids have said something that triggered us and suddenly shift the conversation and start talking about how they have a church at the campground and everyone enjoys the services so much and we should stay. There's a service that night as a matter of fact, and they'd love to have a stay for it.

I've seen too many movies here. I'd be getting creeped out too. They'd put us up in one of their cabins, give us dinner, and provide bedding, etcetera. We said we really appreciated the offers, but, no thanks. We had to be going.

They started insisting we stay, like, really strongly insisting that we stay. Sorry. I looked over to push a button and lost track of where I was at in this. Beyond the point of politeness, almost to the point of bullying. Just very pushy saying how it would be a shame if we drove when we retired and got into an accident and something happened to the children, how we would should really think of the children and their future and not put them in danger like that.

I've never had anyone say anything like that to me before or since. Can't tell you how fast we picked up our things and left. Can't tell you exactly where it was other than it was somewhere in West Virginia, which West Virginia repeatedly popping up in this thread of places where people have encountered creepy things. They said they never tried to avoid the turnpike again. They'll pay the turnpike fares any time now.

I wanna know where it is. Not not really. It sounds sounds pretty unsettling. You ever seen that show, Midnight Mass on Netflix? That's what it reminded me of for some reason.

And if you haven't seen that, another great, romantic show you could watch for Valentine's Day. Just sit down, do some binge watching on some classic Mike Flanagan TV. Nah. It's a Valentine's day themed show on the Victor Wilt program today, and we're still talking creepy places to take your significant other on a date. Had one sorta local pop up here.

The thread was actually about just creepy towns with children of the corn vibes, but I say, you know, go on an adventure for Valentine's Day. Probably not a good day for it with the road conditions out there. By the way, shout out to our, plow drivers out there getting the job done. I've had numerous listeners tell me, they're out there doing a great job. So a massive thanks from everybody in East Idaho to the plows out there keeping our roads as safe as they can be on a day like today.

I don't know if I recommend going to Arco today, but if you wanna go somewhere that a lot of people find to be very creepy, Arco was very high up on this thread as far as creepy places people have stopped. Sorry, Arco. Come on. You ever rolled into Arco? It is kinda weird.

I've been there lots of times. You know, it's out near the site where all the aliens are at, allegedly, according to me. No. Arco's kinda crazy. I've I've been there, like I said, a lot of times.

One of the first things you see is an old it's like part of a submarine or something. It's got six six six on it. That's pretty metal. Let's read, what people had to say about our, local first nuclear powered town in America, Arco. So this guy says stopped for gas on the way to craters of the moon.

Dust balls rolling across the streets. Desolate at the time. Little kid no more than 10 years old sitting on the floor in the gas station looking at nudie magazines. Kid was the clerk's son. I jokingly told my buddy to get back in the car and lock the doors.

We were expecting to see people with three arms. And then they did say if you're from Arco, I'm sure it's a nice place. This was in the late nineties and it was a boring weekday afternoon. Town was just a little eerie. Arco did always kinda seem to me like it would be a great place to either film or at least write a horror novel about.

It's I don't know what it is. You know, I've I've stopped and had mini a burger at Pickles Place. You know, I've stopped and looked at the submarine, have kept going. When Lou Brutus, Peaches, and I were coming back from craters of the moon last summer, as we were driving into Arco, there was some kind of a big, like I think it was a cowboy billboard or something. But from far away, it looked like there was a giant man standing in the Road.

It was very eerie. Okay. Let's see. This person says they were rooftop camping and caught a massive windstorm when passing through Arco, went to a bar called Melodies. I've I've been there.

I've seen JD's band play at Melodies, as a matter of fact. To grab dinner and figure it out, a couple showed up with friends and invited me to join them, ended up sleeping in their gutted Shasta in their backyard. I remember everyone in town knew someone who worked at the site or the facility, but no one really knew what anyone did there. Reverse engineering UFOs. Come on.

What else do you think's happening out at the site? It's called the site. Let's see. This person says, oddly enough, a few years ago, all Arco houses received fiber optics to their house for Internet and phone. Electrical company ran it to a box on the outside of the house, and the company I worked for at the time ran it from the box to the inside of their house.

Very strange people. This is what the Internet's saying about you, Arkel. Very strange people. Only one of the houses seemed to have normal people. Some old lady had a bunch of weird voodoo stuff all over the place, dead birds that still had feathers on them.

The house smelled awful. Another trailer had a crazy cat dude that just had cats all over the place and didn't have a litter box, so they just pooed everywhere and he never picked it up. One of our guys had to crawl under the trailer to pull the fiber and apparently, it was worse down there. Most of the other houses weren't much better. Alright.

I mean I've I've only met a few people from Marco. I I think they're normal enough. You know, go to Pickle's place. They're always very nice. Very strange people.

Sounds like a a scene straight out of a Stephen King book. People are posting pictures of Arco. Lot of people creeped out by arco. That's pretty funny. Now you just need to take a trip to Burley.

Yeah. You wanna get real creeped out? There you go. Take that significant other to somewhere creepy. I I don't know what it is about creepy towns, but the more I read through these, I I just really wanna get my truck and drive to the middle of nowhere.

Why would that be appealing to go somewhere that is creepy? I don't know. I'm a weirdo. So, as I continued scrolling, somebody mentioned a creepy place I mentioned earlier, Colorado City slash Hilldale, Utah, Arizona border towns, Outside of Zion National Park, definitely, little bit creepy down there. A little bit weird.

You're always, you know, feeling like you're being watched, followed. I mean, you you can watch documentaries about it if you wanna learn more about that particular area. Some not great things have happened in those towns. And, yeah, they do follow people around and try to discourage outsiders from, being there. So, but the ones I'm really enjoying reading through here are like, you know, this guy who was cruising through Alabama found himself driving through a small town that appeared to be completely abandoned, but there were life-sized mannequins posed all over doing everyday tasks.

Walking dogs, fixing roofs, sitting at picnic tables, tiny village in the middle of the mountains. Guy said he drove through as quickly as possible. Reminds me of when we went through well, not through, but when we ended up at the gate of the Dugway Proving Grounds and ended up taking the wrong road when we left. Ended up driving through the Utah Mountains for, like, three hours in the middle of the night. There was one area we went through that I don't know if this was a fake town where they did some kind of testing.

I mean, you're out there near the Tooele chemical weapons depot. So all of the houses, they looked like normal houses, but there did not appear to be people. You know, you you might have, like, lights on inside, but there was, like, in most of them, it didn't even seem like there was anything in the houses. It it was very creepy. Very creepy.

So, I don't know. If you're into exciting road trips, you might wanna head places like this place off the highway in Montana. I bet I know where this is. This guy said, I needed a bathroom and gas break pulled in at the next town. Now I say town, but that may be overselling it.

Pull in and the residential district would seem to be a single trailer park on the highway exit. I'd take a right and go down the main street of the town. I'd describe it as a blend of Main Street USA from Disney, but if it was designed as a place in a horror survival game. Western era wood block sidewalks, no name commercial district with locals suspiciously staring at me as I slowly roll down the street, and at the end of the main street was the, single large church with Roman style columns out front. Now, okay, when I moved my daughter to Washington last year, I kept seeing this sign on the way up to Bellingham when we were in Montana this was like past Missoula I want to say the town had a weird I can't remember the name but anyway kept seeing this sign for bookstore with over a hundred thousand books and, you know me.

You know, book collector, used bookstore. I'm like, I gotta stop? So on the way back after moving her, I stopped and it sounds exactly like this description, you know, with the, the wood, wood block sidewalks, very old timey, locals staring at me, and I go into this bookstore and I love used bookstores. All right. It's hard to get me out of them.

All right. I tend to just pour through the shelves because you never know what kind of collectible you're gonna find. This is the only bookstore that, I mean even right when I walked in I was like getting just kind of a weird vibe. The staff was friendly and all that. I wasn't finding anything of interest and they had a basement with, you know, a bunch of paperbacks and things.

So I decided to go down to the basement which was super super creepy. Super creepy. And, as I'm heading down the stairs, I look to my left and on the concrete or rock, might have been a rock wall, you know, an old old foundation. Gigantic spider just right by my head. And I don't like spiders.

So that that probably was the clincher. But I went down to that basement and I looked around just a little bit, but it's all, you know, musty and, I mean, it's, you ever been in anybody's basement in, like, old town Pocatello up, you know, on the on the West Side of town when a basement's made out of, you know, rocks. You ever been to the basement of the Roach motel? It was like, it was like that, and I got out of that town as quick as I could. I had the creepy crawlies like no other.

I bet this was that town. I can't remember the name of it though. And also a hundred thousand books is not very many. I discovered that when I went to that store. I'm like oh this is a small store.

A hundred thousand books sounds like a lot but not really. So thinking back to that little place, it did give me the creeps. I don't know if that's for sure it but sure sounds like it. Alright. Back with, freak news in just a few.

Hang on. We just played some Amity affliction. Speaking of freak news, I guess the front man of the band, he's out. He's out. Pretty crazy.

Hopefully, they'll find someone who's a good fit because I think that fans of that band find the vocalist very distinctive. So I guess we'll just have to, wait and see. But anyhow, let's dive into other freak news here. Now I thought this was an old story, but it's apparently another new one. Another old person who had a lifelong wish.

Sorry. I tried to say bucket list and wish at the same time. Yeah. On her bucket list spending a night in jail. So, you know, the cops were happy to go, sure.

Alright. We'll lock you up for an evening. You know, you don't really have to ask. Do you wanna spend a night in jail? I don't know what crime only constitutes one night in jail, though.

So you might wanna talk to the cops beforehand. Be like, hey. I wanna spend a night in jail, but I want it to be for a legitimate reason. What crime can I commit that will get me only one night in jail? Because it could end up being a lot longer depending on what you do.

But, anyway, congratulations to, Loretta who was able to spend a night in jail. Talk to anybody who spend a night in jail. It shouldn't be on your bucket list. It's not gonna be great. Alright.

What else do we have here? A guy in Massachusetts says he and his family are being harassed because he drives a shimmering gold Cybertruck. Yeah. You know, with the current state of the world, I would imagine if you're driving a Cybertruck, you're probably taking some grief because people were giving Cybertruck owners grief just because they thought the vehicle looked weird, but you know, now with, Elon Musk being so heavily entrenched in politics, I I think we're gonna see a lot more backlash, toward Tesla. I mean, I I've been seeing backlash from both sides on Elon Musk.

So, yeah, I'm not gonna talk about him. Dude's got too much money. Alright? I've poked plenty of fun at Elon over the years, but I don't know. You start seeing these lawsuits flying around and things.

It's like, oh, all I said was, you know, he's kind of a goober. I'll sue you. Alright. Anyway So, yeah, if you drive a Cybertruck, you might wanna park it around back or something. There's a lot of those vehicles getting, vandalized and things like that.

I'm not saying that's good. I don't think people should vandalize the properties of others, but I just have a feeling with the, circus we've got going on in the world, that's gonna continue for a while. Alright. What else do we have here? Oh, you might wanna check what kind of cooler you have.

The Igloo ninety quart flip and tell rolling cooler is being recalled. Yeah. They've recalled about a million of these because the lids have been responsible for at least 12 fingertip amputations, bone fractures, and laceration. Yeah. It'll chop your finger right off.

It's pretty metal. But, you know, when you're out camping or you're, you know, just trying to enjoy a nice day out on the back deck when the weather gets nice, you got your cooler full of beverages, you gotta grab one, the lid slams down and rips your finger off, that's a bad time. Yeah. You don't really think of a cooler as being something that's going to, amputate part of your body. Yeah.

It's not not high up on my list of fears, but I guess it needs to be. So check that out and make sure you're you're sitting alright on that particular cooler. Also, follow warning signs. You know, if you see trail closed, you should probably not go out on the trail. K?

In Hawaii, there was a couple that was hiking on the Honolulu County Trail, saw a sign that said closed, and I guess they took that to mean, well, closed to everybody else, but not you. You're special. So fifteen minutes later, ended up having to be airlifted to a hospital because there was a deadly rock slide and, you know, it's kinda weird. The article doesn't seem to say exactly what happened to them. Why did they end up at the hospital?

I don't know. It said they had to receive basic life support, but it doesn't say what happened. That's weird. I figured that would be the, main point of the article. Here's why you should obey signs.

Rock crushed his legs or, you know, there was some, hot magma in the gases from it, you know. Ended up just about knocking him out and killing him dead but it it just doesn't say. Maybe they're trying to keep it extra mysterious. You don't even want to know why these people had to be airlifted to a hospital. Maybe it's an area 51 type of place or something or maybe you got alien abductions going on.

I don't know. I don't know what happened. But it was bad, whatever it was. Alright. There's your freak news.

We're gonna continue on with our, Valentine's Day themed program today. Just trying to dig up a bunch of romantic rock and metal tunes. You know, gotta go with the theme on a day like this. Right? Sure.

Good morning, Peaches. Good morning. What's up? Well, I thought of a great Valentine's Day prank. You ready for this one?

Oh, boy. A Peaches Valentine's Day prank? Yeah. I went to Dollar Tree last night. I bought, like, 10 cards.

I'm gonna send them all out to people saying last night was great and put them all in, like, people's mailboxes that I know who are in relationships. Peaches, that's messed up, bro. That's a messed up prank. You're gonna ruin Valentine's Day. If I'm by myself, everyone by themselves.

Cheeses. Get mad at me for telling people it's okay to divorce, but that that's out outright just causing divorce, Peaches. Wow. You shouldn't give our listeners these ideas. Put a picture of me in there laying down.

You need to get yourself a bear rug. Oh, yeah. Nice big bear rug. You put it down in front of a fireplace. I have a peach in my mouth.

Oh, jeez. Like, waking up the camera. Oh, man. Yeah. That's pretty brutal.

I hope most people have a good Valentine's Day. I hope not. If he just helps not One of us has to disagree according to Jay. That's right. That's right.

You just got here. What's the weather going out there? The roads are slushy. Be careful out there. Is it still snowing?

A little bit. Alright. Yeah. I keep getting alerts from my cameras at home. Koopa trying to get in the back door.

He wanted he wanted out this morning, and he wouldn't come back in. He demanded to be let out. So I was like, alright, dude. Here you go. I gotta leave, and I tried getting him in before I left.

And then right after I get here, he's at the door like, hey, bro. Let me in. I would say get a cat door, but then you'll have squirrels and raccoons and all that in your place. Yeah. You know, bugs coming in.

You know? Generally, that's what I got, you know, the cameras for. I mean, also to keep riffraff away from my home. Yeah. Like, by the that ding dong ditcher you had recently.

Yeah. What was up with that? What was up with that? So, yeah. Anyhow, usually, I'm there to let him in, but, you know, sometimes kitties gotta learn a lesson.

Don't go out early in the morning when you know I gotta head to work, cat. Come on. So alright. Well, everybody, it's terrible outside. Don't go anywhere if you don't need to.

If you're heading out on a, Valentine's Day road trip, maybe cancel it. Maybe cancel it because, I don't think it's gonna be nice in pretty much any direction. Happy Valentine's Day from K Bear, and a happy Valentine's Day to my lady listening in Connecticut. I hope your morning's going good. I believe we're gonna be kicking off traffic school powered by the advocates here in a few minutes, with the weather conditions outside, you know, Lieutenant Crane being a responsible driver, I'm sure, taking his time getting here, which is good.

You should take your time getting wherever you need to be as well because it sucks outside. It's snowy, slick, cold, miserable. Glad it's just about the weekend aside from the fact that that means I will have time to get out and deal with said snow. Could be worse, though. Could be worse.

Could have a volcano about ready to erupt outside of town like the folks in Anchorage, Alaska are looking at right now. Alaska's largest volcano, Mount Spur, showing signs of imminent eruption. Yeah. I guess, since April of last year, they've had a bunch of earthquakes in the region signaling that magma may be moving beneath the surface, and these tremors are migrating closer to crater peak. And scientists are now closely monitoring, warning it could occur at any moment.

If the volcano erupts could unleash. Pyroclastic flows, lava, and ash clouds, significantly disrupting air traffic. Now I don't know how close any residents are to this volcano. I mean, they say that, Anchorage is about 70 miles away, but, the volatile nature of Mount Spur does put both the local population and infrastructure at risk, particularly if a large eruption is to occur. So, I hope for the folks in Alaska this does not happen or if it does, that it's not bad.

The last time that they had some type of eruption from this volcano was in 1992, but it it wasn't really like crazy, I guess. But it could be. You never know when it comes to mother nature. So, yeah. If you got a trip planned to Alaska planning on hitting up Anchorage anytime soon, I don't know.

You might wanna wait, because I I can't imagine that it's fun to be near a massive volcano as it's going off. I I know that's, you know, kind of a bold piece of insight there, but I bet it sucks. Anyway, gonna take a quick break, and we'll either kick off traffic school right after said break or hear another Valentine's day themed song, then kick it off. Or if I don't hear from lieutenant Crane, we'll just, do some ask me almost anything powered by our good friends at the Advocates Injury Attorneys. Yeah.

With as slick out as as it is out there, if somebody rear ends you, somebody's driving too fast for conditions, you know, after the cops show up, you handle all that. Call the advocates. Two zero eight four seven one four four four four because, you know, you might have some issues that need dealt with and you don't wanna deal with insurance companies. Right? Nobody wants to deal with the insurance companies trying to nickel and dime you.

Call my friends at the advocates. Good dudes and ladies. Great crew at the advocates. Alright. I'm gonna be back in just a minute.

Hang on. If you're just tuning in today, been doing a Valentine's Day themed playlist on the show. If you have any requests or anything, I'll do my best to get them on, but they gotta gotta be Valentine's day themed in some way. I know I played Slayer in a got it a vita, but, you know, you just gotta go take take a look at those lyrics. Okay.

I've got great news for those of you who didn't have TikTok on your phones and were so sad that you weren't able to download that app. Google and Apple have restored TikTok in their app stores so you can download it and join in on all the TikTok fun. That means the genius of the day, clearly those people that bought iPhones for $10,000, they had TikTok on them. Yeah. Man, I had TikTok on my old Samsung phone.

And if I had seen phones actually selling for ridiculous amounts of money not actual sales. You should have tried it. Yeah. You know, I I looked at ones that actually sold, and they were selling for the price that the phone was worth. Ah, gosh.

Yeah. Otherwise, yeah, my Samsung phone would have been listed immediately. I had TikTok the entire time. Yep. Me too.

But now everyone can pick up TikTok and watch all the stupid dancing videos or whatever you'd like to your heart's content. That's why I prefer Instagram reels. You prefer Instagram reels to TikTok? They're not on there, you know. Have you seen Instagram reels?

How wonky they can get? I could show you my feed. I I have, but I I still think TikTok has the better videos, at least the way my algorithm feeds me. I find funnier stuff on TikTok. I don't know why.

That's because you're lib no. I'm just kidding. Probably. That could be it. Yeah.

I find myself watching a lot of weird stuff on TikTok as of late. Lots of videos about farming. Well, that's what I've been watching. You're picking up the farming life. Yeah.

No. I've just been watching, you know, what farmers have to say right now. You're gonna go down the hall and make your way to each person here saying, hey. I I decided I'm become farmer Victor. And, you know Hey.

You know what? I look pretty good on a horse, dude. I'll tell you what. I Please don't show up in overalls or the straw hat. I've been here with that fake southern accent or something.

Overalls keep your pants from falling down, Peach, when you got that belly. You know, because when you get older, your butt moves into your belly. You got no butts, so you need the overalls to hold up your pants. I wonder how Idaho people, Idaho farmers specifically feel about these LA women wearing overalls because they're they're cute looking. Meanwhile, if I were to wear overalls in LA, you would think I'm, like, the biggest country hick you've ever seen.

Oh, yeah. Dude, Peaches, you should get some overalls. Is it Lenny from Of Mice and Men? I tell about the Wabbits. I I think it would be hilarious to see you, full full hillbilly getup with the overalls, you know, shirtless underneath.

What's that, you know that old commercial? Was it Ocean Spray that used to have the two dudes in overalls in the middle of the cranberries? And they were, like, waist deep. Yeah. We gotta reenact that.

Reenact that. Where's our local cranberry field? Yeah. Do we have one? I don't think we do.

Oh. We could do it out in a cornfield. Yeah. Sure. You know, but you're the only one who's going to be able to be seen over the corn.

That's the I'll lift you up. Okay. It'll be like mister Incredible and Jack Jack. You know? Alright.

Sounds precious. Happy Valentine's Day, everybody. It's Victor Welt, and Peach has said he had something for the program. Yeah. Shaq is, using AI to shoot his shot with dead celebrities.

Did you see his latest post? No. He made an AI video of him flirting with Marilyn Monroe. Oh, okay. Him, like, walking on the beach, you know, with her.

And it's it's pretty funny. I'll have to check it out. I had not seen that one yet. I would imagine as time goes on, we'll see. Just average people doing that?

Same kind of thing. Well, I saw that, Scarlett Johansson is now getting lawyers involved with the whole AI anti Kanye video. Yeah. I, I read an article or I saw a headline about it. Mhmm.

Apparently, people, made it look like she was, what, a Kanye supporter wearing some of his, new designs. No. I think it was anti Kanye. Like, all, like, the very famous Jewish celebrities were kind of going anti Kanye. Like, it was, like, Jerry Seinfeld, Adam Sandler, a whole bunch of them.

Well, I mean yeah. I guess that's a video that would appear to be very real. I would imagine. Wrong. I don't I I don't think it would be in support.

I see, I thought that's why they were, or she was upset was that, the video made it look like, you know, she she was wearing, like, one of those horrible shirts that Kanye was trying to sell. But I also thought, like, she was just hiring the lawyers too. No. It is a fake video of her opposing Kanye. But because she didn't like the whole idea of her being used for AI.

Yeah. Like, there was a really weird one I saw over the weekend. It was Mr. Beast, Margot Robbie, and, like, a whole bunch of other celebrities. And I think Mr.

Beast was twerking in the beginning. Mr. Beast twerking sounds very disturbing. Yep. Right?

He's already weird enough looking. He he is a weird he's a weird dude for sure. He is weird. There's I don't know. I actually was talking with Judith about that just the other day.

There's something about mister beast that just always seems a little bit off. He looks like the human Spongebob. Kind of. Like, he has a upbeat attitude, but he's but he's actually smart, and he only lives for YouTube. Yeah.

I I can't imagine, if if I had that kind of money, I would just be done. Dude. I I don't know. The people with that endless drive. I mean, he's almost a 400,000,000 subscribers.

Yeah. That's a ton. Dude, he he's making bank. Like, I'm sorry everybody, but, if I all of a sudden won the lottery, I'm gonna be doing just a lot of fun things. Oh, yeah.

You have to. Eventually, I'm sure I mean, it is too. Eventually, I'm sure I'd start putting out some kind of content or something because I like doing a show. I'd probably do a live streaming show or something. You probably have, like, your own home studio, some giant state of the art studio, like, almost like the, like, the Zach Sang show or something like that that's on YouTube only that you invite celebrities over.

Totally. But I don't think you'd be living here. I think you'd be going somewhere else that's more so attractive to, like, the the higher folk, if you will. Well, no. I would just go I I'd still move to a small town.

I I I if I won the lottery, you know, I would move to a small town. Like somebody huge celebrity wise to, I don't know, middle of nowhere Oregon. You buy them a plane ticket. How do you think Joe Rogan gets people to go to Austin? I mean, Austin, Texas is definitely more so attractive than a small town or It is, but it's not packed with celebrities.

Oh, it is now? He's flying them out. It's huge now. Yep. Well, there's a good comedy scene.

Like Austin, Texas and Nashville are the two huge cities when it comes to celebrities now because everyone's leaving LA. But how many celebrities live in Austin? You know, I know some comics like Ron White, Joe Rogan, obviously, some of Joe Rogan's friends. But, yeah, most of the guests, he's just flying them out. Well, like, Katy Perry lives out that way, I think, now too.

And No. I mean, most of them have multiple houses anyway. Yeah. But, no, I've I've I've talked about it many times. I've I've if I had the choice of where to live, there's a few places, and they're both or they're all, like, small, you know, the smaller towns.

You know, nothing bigger than the places around here. You know, it I just don't like you know, if if I I the only big city I could think I could tolerate is Phoenix because I've driven around it enough and never gotten aggravated. Yeah. But then you have one summer there and you're like, okay. I'm out of here.

Yeah. But you just don't go outside, you know, which is what I do right now here. You know? But would you wanna deal with that, or would you rather go to some place where you can live year round? Well, yeah.

That'd be great. Because, like, you you don't have anybody that's a snowbird in Southern California. No. No. And, you know, in areas outside of, like, San Diego, you know, that that could be pretty nice, you know, because it's, like, 70 year round.

That that sounds pretty good to me. San Francisco, if it was a nice city, that has the best weather. I mean, 50 to 70 year round is Yeah. Oregon Coast is that way. You know, it's generally gloomy and cool, and I like that.

So yeah. But, again, smaller towns. Yeah. I don't know. But I've never hung out in San Francisco.

Maybe it's a place I'd really like. I like LA. I like, San Diego. I think the last time I was in San Fran was, like, 2017. No.

No. Twenty even earlier than that, 2015, I think. Now I need to go check it out one of these days because I do like the West Coast. You gotta get that bread bowl clam chowder. I've had some nice clam chowder in, Oregon.

Oh, San Fran's the home of it. Yeah. You get yourself some, you know, seafood on the Coast. That's where it's at. Or you go to Ghirardelli Square, the chocolate.

Mhmm. Oh, the sundaes from that place were really good. Making me hungry for candy. I forgot to bring some of my candy. Judith got me a box of so many Reese's.

She's trying to get you fat now. I know she's listening. Hey. She did encourage me. Eat all of it if you want.

I'm like, now that's a lady. That's a supportive lady right there. Yeah. Get you a I mean, this was a box packed with Reese's. Were you like that guy on the, noon hour yesterday when we're talking about him?

You gotta dress better than that. Remember that guy? That was a horrible story. I couldn't stop thinking about it. There there there are some awful people out there.

It's like, how can you say something like that to somebody? I don't I I feel like I would say that to myself more than anybody. You'd be surprised. I've had people say some pretty rude things to me before about my appearance. Yeah.

Me too. But But Yeah. I I don't get why people do that, but I have had people say some rude things to me about my appearance. You were saying rude things about me during the traffic school. Right?

Just then. Yeah. I was. It was as a matter of fact. Yeah.
