#0058 - Who is Linkin Park's MYSTERY new vocalist?! - 09/05/2024
Thursday. Party time. Welcome to the Viktor Will show. We have been lied to. Was reading through a thread about annoying that's bad for you myths that drive you crazy because people still believe it.
1, have I heard of these myths? 2, am I dumb enough to believe them myself? And if you believe these myths I'm not calling you dumb. Alright? It it's not your fault was probably your parents they told you about these things and kids believe their parents And then your life just goes on.
Next thing you know, some radio host is telling you, yeah. You know that thing you believe? It's not true. Now these are just responses from the Internet. So this could be complete misinformation.
But I ain't a doctor, and, I I don't know. This is, like, the the warning thing. You know, don't take any advice I say is accurate or whatever. I'm just an idiot on the radio. I don't know if it'll even get into medical stuff, but it did say what's the most annoying that's bad for you myth that drives you crazy because people still believe it.
So that's bad for you. We could be delving into a little bit of medical stuff, but, maybe I'll just do my best to avoid that. Alright. Top of the list. Frozen vegetables aren't good for you.
Myth. Now I don't think I've ever heard that one. I may have heard that frozen veggies aren't as good as fresh, but I don't know if that's true either and looking through the comments here, some people are saying that frozen fruits and vegetables might even be better because they're, you know, like flash frozen right after being picked. And your fresh fruits and veggies, you know, they might just be kinda degrading as time goes on. So alright.
Frozen veggies also much easier to deal with. They're chopped up. You just cook them and go. Big fan of, anything that makes life more convenient. Alright.
Cracking your knuckles. I certainly remember hearing that that'll give you arthritis or this and that. Apparently, it's not bad for you, but, I don't know about that. It, for some reason, just seems wrong to me. I don't do it unless I've, you know, like, have to.
You know? Like, the fingers all jammed up or something. But, again, it's supposed to not be bad for you. For some reason, I I just don't like it. Alright.
Let's see here. What else do we got? Someone on r slash cats. Landlord wanted her to get rid of her cat because it was a black cat. Bad luck.
Aw, poor little kitty. Black cats are not bad luck. I have one at home. You know, he's loud. He's very needy, but he's not bad luck.
He's a good boy. Koopa's a good kitty. He's not bad luck. Adopt a black cat today. I thought when I got my new kitten, I was going to be getting another black cat because lieutenant Crane had a little black kitten.
But something about little Lucy just called out to me. She was the right pick. She's the one, but, well, I've I've had a number of black cats, so I recommend them. Let's see here. One user said when I was pregnant, I was grocery shopping and I reached up to get something.
Some lady said if you reach up, the umbilical cord will wrap around the baby's neck. Yeah. Pregnant ladies, it's okay. You can reach upward. K?
In case you ever heard that you can't, you you can. It'll be okay. Okay. Here's one I've read about before. MSG is bad for you.
MSG, a seasoning, in a lot of, like, Asian dishes. And, I've certainly heard that it's bad for you, but I looked into it one time, and apparently, that's all just myth. I I'm pretty confident in saying that m s g is fine to eat based on the information I've read online. Again, I'm not doctor Wilt. K?
That just appears to be what I have read over time. So don't don't be calling, I talked to somebody who told me otherwise. Look around on this one online. K? Swimming blank minutes after eating will cause you to cramp up and die.
We've talked about that on air before. I do remember hearing that as a kid. Yeah. You you can eat and swim. K?
You'll you'll be okay. Alright? You're gonna be alright. You won't die if you, sleep with a fan on at night. I've had a fan in my room for, like, weeks.
I'm okay. I'm I mean, I could be living in another dimension of existence and have passed due to my fan in my room, but far as I know I'm I'm alright. I'm actually alive and even if this is just another layer to the old, simulation I'm I'm alive in this one. So in this reality sleeping with a fan on. I'm okay.
Alright. I'm alright. Alright. I mean, jeez. We could keep going on and on with this one.
I'm sure eventually, I'd hit hit something that somebody's gonna get butt hurt about. Yeah. I'm seeing some pop up seeing some pop up that I know people would call and yell at me, but, I'm not gonna get into those. I want to from a public health, standpoint. All I'm gonna say is I tend to fall pretty much always on the side of scientists and doctors.
K? You know, I I I don't get my medical advice from YouTubers, k, or influencers. I talk to the docs and people who work in science. That that's the best route to take when it comes to making, decisions about your health. It's the Victor Willchow spirit box there.
Gonna be on tour with Korn and Gojira later this fall. Should be an awesome show. After that Olympics performance, I really wanna see Gojira. So might have to make my way to Salt Lake City to check that one out at whatever the Delta Center or Vivint Arena or whatever it's called nowadays is. Should be amazing.
Alright. What's going on around here? What on earth is happening around here? I know I did this about a week or 2 ago, sitting around here tinkering with cameras and this and that. I'm doing it again this morning.
Never satisfied when it comes to camera setup in this studio. Jade, I need budget. I need you to invest in all the gear I need to be able to, you know, just unleash content online like like hotcakes. I think I am going to record a music video reaction this morning to test the gear out and get some content on the new Kay Bear YouTube page. It's Kay Bear 101 RMG.
Do you wanna find that YouTube page? We need all the help we can get on that one. That's at kbear 101rmg, like riverbend media group. Anyway, I'll probably do some music video reactions to pop videos and things like that. Rock radio DJ reacts.
There's the new Sabrina Carpenter song. Maybe I'll check that one out, get that uploaded. And, just trying to get the the YouTube algorithm working in our favor. So far, it's not. I don't know what's going on.
You know, classy, they churn out YouTube shorts, and they're getting views. We're churning out YouTube shorts. It's pushing them to nobody. So I figure if I start reacting to very popular songs and putting up those videos, that should kinda kick start things a little bit. So that's what I'm gonna do.
And you can enjoy that content by following us on YouTube at kbear 101rmg. So I'll give it the old test to see if it works. If it does, I'll upload it. Hopefully, the reaction is entertaining. Though, most people who do reaction videos don't do much of anything, so I'm probably fine.
Just uploading garbage. There's a lot of garbage on YouTube. Alright. Gonna give it a whirl. I'll be back and let you know what what I thought of the new Sabrina Carpenter song.
Alright. You ready for that? The latest from A Day to Remember feedback. I like the part in that song when he goes, you suck. It it's just great.
I would assume that it had to have been used in other tracks before. But why? I can't recall 1? I don't know because that's a great line in any song. You suck.
Alright. I did record a music video reaction. I'm gonna get that uploaded to YouTube. I I think the re recording turned out, anyway. I watched Sabrina Carpenter taste.
She's a pop artist, currently number 1 on trending for music on YouTube. An artist we play the crap out of on z one zero three. I think she gained popularity after opening for Taylor Swift on her latest tour and, put out a number of the biggest pop hits of the summer. The video was actually pretty good. The song itself was nothing exciting.
Didn't get my attention. Just kinda mid average. But the video was cool. It was Sabrina Carpenter, the artist who wrote this well, I don't know if she wrote this song. We're we're talking the world of pop here.
But she teamed up with Jenna Ortega from, like, the, Addams Family TV show, or is it Wednesday, and the new Beetlejuice movie, and they were just kind of killing each other throughout the music video. I don't think I'm gonna be able to upload that video to the Kay Bear YouTube page due to the violent content contained within, but I'll upload it to my personal. So look for Victor Wilt at Victor Wilt on YouTube, and, I'll get that posted there. There were some, you know, limbs being hacked off, people being impaled on a fence, some chainsaw. I I have a feeling the bosses wouldn't like the the graphic imagery on our company page, so you'll have to check out my personal for that, but I'll I'll find something else to put up on the k Bear page.
There has to be some kind of a clean music video out there. Right? Maybe. This question I just read, somebody asked online, seemed a bit toxic to me, or at least it put toxic things into my head. I follow a variety of subreddits as most Reddit users do.
One of which is the Sopranos. And somebody posted, what do you guys think Tony smelled like? I've always thought about this for some reason, l o l. Now I cannot read you any of the responses that are being given online because people are being very inappropriate. I should know it's the Internet.
People are not going to take the question seriously, and that wouldn't make it funny anyway. What? Tony Soprano? What would he smell like? Gobblegoul and cigars.
Right? Mhmm. Some of the responses. Vile. Vile people out there.
But what a weird question to pose on the Internet. You know, generally, what does someone smell like if you're asking another person? That could be a weird question. Like, when local weatherman asked that girl who was on American Idol or one of those shows, I think it was American Idol. What did Katy Perry smell like?
That's a weird question to ask somebody. Alright? You wanna find out what Katy Perry smells like? I guess you need to pay for the meet and greet and then just I mean, you're you're gonna creep her out. K?
You're never going to be allowed at a Katy Perry meet and greet again, but that's how you find out. Don't just ask somebody else who's been around her. You're gonna appear to be very strange. Okay. For those of you who have just been waiting excitedly to find out if I uploaded that video of me listening to pop music.
I did. It's on the YouTube Victor Wilt page. At Victor Wilt. Maybe I'll get some traction out of that one. We'll see.
Anyhow, I guess today's yes. Just all about promoting me. Check out my socials. Follow me everywhere at Victor Wilt. But now I need to find some kind of video that I can watch and post on the Kay Bear YouTube page.
It's getting tougher all the time to find music videos that are new and popular that I can actually put on the station's socials because of the vile content contained within. I mean, that video I just watched from Sabrina Carpenter, it was very violent. Very violent. Yeah. It it was pretty fun.
Pretty fun. So I'll keep digging. I'll find something. I I gotta get, new content going on our station pages. Gotta branch it out a bit.
Thought about going live on Twitch this morning too on my, Victor Wilt Twitch page. I I guess I could do it that way. Do some music video reviews with people in the chat. I don't know. Feels like a Tuesday.
I'm so glad it's Thursday. Okay. Enough babble. Enough babble. I will find typical radio content, you know, dumb lists.
I could wing it and do, like, hey. It's National Cheese Pizza Day. Get yourself pizza. That's what a lot of radio shows do. No?
I could do this day in history. Do you know what happened? Can you believe it? Did you remember this event? I I'm not gonna do that though.
Okay. I, I won't put you through this day in history unless something really exciting happened. Like yesterday was the, I don't know, 20 something anniversary of toxicity by system of a down, or we could do celebrity birthdays. Brad Wilk. Yeah.
Drummer for rage against the machine. 56 years young today. Yay. All right. Anyway, I'll do better.
K? I'll do better on my next break. Thanks for your support. Rah tata tata. Baby metal and electric call boy.
Why electric call boy is not getting radio airplay nationwide? I will just never understand. Same goes with minibans. You may have heard of them. Slipknot.
I know they'd be good on the radio, but what do I know? What do I know? Yeah. Just as I was listening to that song, I was like, why is that not a number one rock radio hit? It's a hit by every other metric.
Every other metric. For example, you take a look at the YouTube plays. That song's been out about 3 months, 22,000,000 YouTube plays. The current number one song on rock radio, the video's been out for a month. From The Offspring, Make It Alright, 387,000 views.
Now I get it. Babymetal's pretty popular, overseas, but I can also look at American numbers. And that song, since it's been released, has consistently been out streaming most of the songs on the rock radio charts. Why? No love for Electric Call Boy.
They're fun. They're not too heavy. I just don't get it. I just don't get it. Whatever.
Whatever. We'll just keep doing what we do around here and playing the crap out of all the good new rock music. I'm hoping, speaking of new rock music, that I may have found some options for songs I can react to on YouTube and post on the Kay Bear page. Now you never know till you get into the actual video. Generally, bad language or horrific material like the violence and horror in that Sabrina Carpenter video that I posted on my own YouTube page.
But I'm gonna check out Memphis May Fire Infection. It's a new video that dropped yesterday. And if that one is too vile, I guess I'll try out the Browning's new song called Omni. We'll see. But I my goal is to get some kind of content uploaded to the Kay Bear YouTube page.
The new one, Kay Bear 101 r m g on YouTube. Alright? So wish me luck. You know? It's funny the day and age we're in.
Radio and broadcast TV still gotta adhere to these silly rules, and then they spread out to everything else we do. But you look at just the nature of the world we're in today. I mean, I saw one of the presidential candidates drop an MF bomb in a speech on the news. Like okay. Freak news powered by Greasemonkey voted Idaho's best oil change.
What up? It's Victor Wilt. And, I mean, I just got some super important news. So I figure before we get to anything else, I have to let you know about this. I mean, just vital important information.
This was sent to me by a friend of mine I hadn't heard from in, like, years. Guy named, well, he goes by Stevie Steele on Facebook right now. He let me know that during the closing credits of a recent Bob's Burgers episode, they did a beef chant. Now beef chant, that's where you, just start chanting beef. Beef.
Beef. Beef. This is a common activity when me and my friends get together, a beef chant. Alright? What it's just one of those things.
You know, every group of friends has their thing. For us, it's brutal beef and liquid cheese. So we gotta check this out. Oh my god. Yes.
Lord. I guess they had a burger called the beefhemoth, which is an amazing name for a burger. Alright? The beefhemoth, and that's the name of the song. Alright.
Now that that important news is out of the way, we can get to some other freak news. Powered by Greasemonkey. Voted Idaho's best oil change. Alright. We've got a man punched in the face in Florida.
What did he do? I mean, people getting punched in the face in Florida. That's as common as it gets. Apparently, got a driver heading west on Tyndallcamp Road approaching the scenic highway in the Dundee Lake Wales area. Traveling in front of the driver was John Sturgeon, who suddenly stopped his vehicle, approached the driver, and punched him in the face.
Well, apparently, what had happened was earlier, the guy said, hey, dude. Nice car. And the guy thought he was trying to start a fight with him even though he was just saying, dude, your your car is really cool. If somebody compliments your vehicle, you shouldn't punch him in the face. Alright?
You should punch him in the face only in situations where you're having a good time. Alright? That's the only times to punch people. K? If you're a group of friends, you're standing in a circle chanting beef and, you know, maybe you punch each other a few times.
Alright? All in good fun. Not not a stranger who's just trying to say something nice to you. It's rude. Alright.
What else do we got going on here? Police puzzled by open casket displayed at Michigan Park. Well, what's so weird about that? It's after the beginning of September. It's officially Halloween season.
Take it out to the park, dump it. It's a Halloween decoration. The end. And some people, they do not like people throwing up their Halloween decorations early. There was another article out of Ohio where a homeowner started getting a bunch of complaints from community members for putting up her annual Halloween display a little bit early this year.
You know, she kinda goes all out, but she wanted to get a a good start on it because, one, you never know what's gonna happen with weather. But most importantly in her situation, her husband is going through cancer treatment, so she's gotta be able to take care of him. She says setting up her Halloween display takes about a 100 hours. So, you know, she just wanted to get it all put up, get ready for Halloween, make the kids happy. But, no.
No. Whiny neighbors. I would like to encourage everyone in solidarity to put up their Halloween decorations right now. That's right. Call in sick to work.
Go home. Put your Halloween decorations up. K? I will as soon as I get home. I'm I'm not gonna just leave work.
Jade would probably not like it if I did that even though it sounds really good. You know? Go home. Hang out with the cats. Put up Halloween decorations.
It just sounds fun. Maybe I'll chant beef in my front yard while I'm doing it. Anyway, the city told her you can put your Halloween decorations up anytime you want because that's the thing. It's your yard. You can do whatever you want.
You can put up Halloween decorations at the beginning of the year. I mean, it would be miserable to be out trying to decorate your house in January weather, but, you you be you. If you got one of those 10 foot skeletons, I'd say you leave it up year round like my neighbors do. I appreciate that. Livens up the neighborhood a bit.
Things tend to be pretty boring around here. So, yeah, Halloween decorations. Go crazy with it. Let's talk Lincoln Park rumors. Now Lincoln Park has a big announcement that's coming today.
And, apparently, they're doing it, live online. It'll be streamed online. They will also have a live audience in attendance, and they had people who are showing up to the live event sign some type of waiver. Now, I don't know if this was an NDA. You know, can't get the information out there.
Nondisclosure agreement. But something's happening today. Most speculation is that the band is going to announce a new vocalist and also release some new music. K? Tons of speculation on who the new vocalist could be, I have no idea from what I've read online.
No idea. I would assume a band of Linkin Park's caliber is going to go with a known vocalist, but you never know. Alice in Chains went with, William Duvall who I mean, it's not like he was an unknown, but he he was not a big name. Perfect fit for the band. I would imagine Linkin Park, If they are gonna do this, if they're going to continue on with the band after the passing of Chester Bennington, I would imagine they spend a lot of time figuring out the perfect vocalist.
We'll have to wait and see. This is coming later this afternoon. I wanna say because the stupid article I have in front of me does not say what time the big events have to be. But, I I'm pretty sure I read that it was at 5 PM Pacific time. So that would be 6 PM our time.
Follow the Linkin Park YouTube. I believe that's where you can watch the big announcement to happen live. I looked everywhere. It it does look like a possible new song called The Emptiness Machine. There are rumors that they have hired a female vocalist, which could be pretty interesting, but we're just gonna have to kick back and wait for the big announcement coming at again, I'm pretty sure it was 5 PM Pacific time.
If I'm off about that, sorry. I'll I'll get the update. It's gotta be in one of these news articles somewhere, so stay tuned. Alright. We're gonna be back in just a minute.
Appreciate you tuning in to the show. If I get any more Lincoln Park info, I'll let you know, but I believe we've got announcement of a new singer and new music coming today. That is my educated guess based on everything I'm reading online. So a potentially really exciting day for Lincoln Park fans, a potentially, soul crushing day for Lincoln Park fans. We'll wait and see.
Anybody complaining about anything dumb on social media? Well, it's the same old usual stuff on the Life in Idaho Falls Facebook group talking about, of course, the high school and the lack of funding for it and, people speeding by the students. What do you mean? By the students. You gotta get the students out of the street.
That's one way to do it. They're afraid of the cars. I I don't know, peaches. I don't know if we should do it. Run the children over.
I do find it funny how, like, people are getting busted over in the Boise area because they're going past the buses when they have the stop sign out. They installed those cameras right there on the bus. So if you don't if you don't drive past it, they're gonna ticket you right away. Well, good. Good.
You shouldn't go flying past a bus with the stop sign out. That's precisely how you mow down small children. Right. God, people are just terrible. Slow it down out there.
Don't blow through red lights. Josh almost got in an accident yesterday. I had somebody cut me off on Sunnyside the other day. Just whip out from one of the side roads into, I mean, multiple lanes of oncoming traffic. Patience, people.
It only takes 10 minutes to get from one side of Idaho Falls to the other or Pocatello to the other. If it takes you 1 to 2 minutes longer to get somewhere, it's not gonna take you very long. K? This isn't LA where you're looking at an hour commute to go, you know, 2 miles. Alright?
We don't have those kind of traffic problems yet. Slow it down. But, Victor, it's getting so crowded out there. It's almost like Los Angeles, isn't it? No, Peach.
It's I've been to LA. I've I've not seeing, you know, people fighting in the in the middle of Tafas Park, all hammered up on all kinds of drugs. I I'm pretty sure we're not dealing with LA style problems yet. What do you mean not yet? I've seen it's Compton Falls outside.
The only LA problem that I deal with is right here in this room on a daily basis. Only one California based problem Yeah. But do you really think I'm causing the same problems as LA? Absolutely, peaches. You turn the state blue.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Everything you've that's happened happened since you moved here, peaches. All these other people rolling in. Yeah.
Alright. You know, all of a sudden we get one Californian in and then they all come right behind you. I flew the Fortnite bus over East Idaho. You did? And people just jumped out.
It's Peach's fault, everybody. And I'm sorry. I was the one who brought him here. I didn't realize he'd bring all the riffraff along with him. It's my bad.
My bad, everybody. Sorry. It's the Victor Will show with Peaches. Peaches was just telling me parts of Boise apparently on fire. Try to not be morons.
Alright? It's dry out there. Don't do stupid things out in the hills. Did it say what caused the fire? No.
Okay. You know, I've I've seen these things happen year after year. Often enough, you've got people not putting out campfires, setting off fireworks, or using exploding targets up in the hills, and then they end up burning a bunch of people's homes to the ground. Could we have Smokey the Bear become, like, a real thing? A bear that just shows up and rips people to pieces for being irresponsible with fire?
Or have some, like, MMA fighter inside the suit and he just takes the head off and then it's, you know, like Brock Lesnar out of nowhere that just kicks your butt for not putting out your campfire. I say we bring in the cocaine bear from the movie. Yeah. That's right. You wanna start forest fire?
Just tearing people to pieces. Why hasn't that been a horror movie yet? Smokey fights back and he's Well, I think because the the the was it the trademark or what what is it with Is Smokey the Bear trademarked by the US government? Well, no. Like, the Disney characters, like, as soon as that trademark went out, magically all these horror movies now popped up.
I didn't realize Rob Zombie was directing the, Willie the the Steamboat movie, the horror movie based off of that. Yeah. And about time tune there. I could use some new Rob Zombie horror action. You know, it's been a while since he put anything out.
He was just churning out Halloween movies for a while and those were pretty good. But I I like the Devil's Rejects. I think that's Rob Zombie's best horror movie. I don't know if you've seen that one, Peaches. I haven't seen any of his films.
You haven't seen any of his films? Nah. Oh, you you have to sit down and do a nice marathon where you watch a house of a 1000 corpses and then the Devil's Rejects. And I think there's even a sequel to that, which I don't know if I watched because I I think it wasn't very well reviewed. But, Devil's Rejects is, you know, quality, real, legit horror.
It it's good stuff. It's the kind of movie Jade would go, ee. Is it really gross? There's some there's some pretty brutal Is it, like, terror fire? No.
No. Terrifier is, like, you know, over the top. This is more like, terrifier is a comedy. This is more like a real horror movie, you know, with, you know, a psycho family trying to kill people and it's scary. Terrifiers I don't know why people were so bothered by terrifier.
To me, it was just funny. I couldn't watch it. It was just too long. It was just too long. It's like 2 and a half hours.
Tighten it up a bit. Hour and a half of straight straight gore. You think for any movie like that, it has to be an hour and a half. Otherwise, you just get, okay. Here's another killing.
Oh. Yeah. Like, unless you've got a really good story which Terrifier does not have a good story. It's just about the funny and the gore. You gotta tighten it up a little bit.
So I haven't checked out the trailer that just dropped for Terrifier 3, the upcoming potential best Christmas movie of all time. But, it's out there. Red Band trailer, so it's probably got some some gore in it. Well, supposedly, there's a scene that involves a kid, and people are outraged by it online. How do they know?
They haven't seen the movie. I don't know. You can't get outraged till you've seen the movie. I feel like it's a fake headline. I feel like we could just put a fake headline out there.
Nobody reads the article. Well, that's kinda like okay. All the hype when Terrifier 2 came out. Like, oh, people are fainting in the theater, storming out in anger. I went into that movie thinking we were gonna get into something really crazy.
And I guess I've seen too much disgusting horror because I was like, oh, you know, this is gory, but nothing I haven't seen before. I mean, it it was just too long. There's a website that I could potentially show you to show all the messed up movies. And I've probably seen a lot of them. The thing with messed up movies is I don't even like to give out the name of them on air because I don't want some listener inadvertently going, oh, it couldn't be that bad.
And then they watch it, and they're all disturbed and, you know, upset. Victor said I should watch this movie. It I recommended or maybe it was my friend, Joe. I remember one of us gave somebody the book The Girl Next Door by Jack Ketchum. Because they said they wanted to read some real horror.
And alright. Well, here you go. Read this. And they were all mad after I can't believe that you gave me this. Like, well, told you.
You said you wanted to read one of the most messed up horror books ever. I have the book now because of you. But you haven't read it? Not yet. Gotta read it.
But I'm not gonna be mad and be like, oh my god, Victor. Victor, you didn't tell me it was that bad. Yes. I did. Alright.
There's a reason I've only read that book one time because you feel icky afterward. Kinda like watching, Requiem for a Dream, but way worse. Way worse. Yeah. Terrifier compared to The Girl Next Door.
That's like, you know, watching Superbad or something. It's funny. It's silly. Anyway, Terrifier 3 coming just in time for Christmas. I'll give you my review after we check it out here in a few months.
Gavin Hamilton, 26 years old. He's in jail. After triggering a sprinkler system in a Vegas I guess it's a hotel called called Fontainebleau. Never heard of it. But, anyway, apparently, Gavin decided he was going to make a homemade flamethrower by pumping an unknown liquid through a hose.
He had a 3 foot long metal hose that went into his backpack, and he connected with a tank. I don't know if it was gas or what, But they also noted that in his backpack, he had several other items, including bongs, butane, and a meth pipe, and they said he used these to create the flamethrower device. He said he was trying to open a locked door, but black water was released and the door did not unlock. I don't know. He's covered in black sludge.
And when you think of black sludge coming from a random pipe in Vegas, that's gross. Alright? You ever seen the Shawshank Redemption? Yeah. Where Andy Dufresne has to crawl through the sewer?
Mhmm. Sorry if that's a spoiler. Movie's old. Yeah. That's what this guy looks like.
Like, he just popped up after escaping from a sewer system. Well, anyway, thankfully, he didn't burn anything to the ground. Yeah. Looking at a picture of Fontainebleau. I mean, it looks like a very fancy big hotel, so I don't know if this is new or I'm just oblivious when I've been to Vegas because I've never seen this place before.
Anyway yeah. If you're in Vegas, try to not ruin everybody's good time. Last thing you need is middle of the night getting woke up because, you know, some crackhead with a homemade flamethrower is trying to get into a locked door that I would imagine he's not supposed to be going behind anyway. And, yeah. Kicks the sprinklers on in your nobody wanna wake up to a sprinkler in Vegas.
Waking up in Vegas is generally bad enough. Alright? Because you're waking up in Vegas. And, you know, depending on how many days you've been there, you might really wanna leave. So final day, sprinkler mowing you down because of Gavin Hamilton.
That is a no go for this guy right here. It's the Victor World Show. We got peaches hanging out. We were just talking off air about the big Lincoln Park thing happening today. I was wrong about the time.
It's at 4 PM our time. There will be something going on on YouTube. If you, get to lincolnpark.com, they've got a live event there kicking off in 6 hours. That's again at 4 PM. My guess, announcement of a new singer and a new song.
So, Peaches, you got the Internet speculation going on. Loudwire threw together a list of the 10 vocalists that people think could be Linkin Park's new vocalist. Alright. Let's hear it. Alright.
So I believe this one's already been debunked because he well, unless he's being a liar, a liar, dirty liar, Derek Wibley from, Sum 40 1. Well, he said he still has the Sum 41 tour. He's also promoting his book. Yes. He even explicitly said I am not the replacement.
Yeah. And when I think of his vocals, I don't see him as the perfect fit. Not at all. But to find a perfect fit is gonna be impossible anyway. It's gonna be really interesting to see who they come up with for a new singer.
Then the one that, we were talking about off air, next one on this list, Lizzie Hale of Hailstorm. And Katie Lee from z 103. She's the biggest Hailstorm fan we know. Mhmm. And she was all against it.
I was too because, again, Linkin Park is not necessarily it should not be still a thing. It should be something else that these guys launch and have Linkin Park rest with Chester. Yeah. I I go all different directions with these kind of things because there are bands who've done it right. Alice in Chains, like we talked about off air.
Well, I talked about it too. And I'm like, wait a second. I'm sounding like one of those Pantera fans that was all upset about Zach Wild and you know. And, you know, as far as Chester's contribution to the writing process for the song, I don't know. Like, my problem with Pantera continuing on is, you know, the right the core of the writing team is gone.
You know, the guys who wrote the music. Did Vinny write most of it too? Well, you know, he's he wrote the drum parts. Okay. But as far as the the songs, those iconic riffs, that's all Dimebag Darrell.
So Pantera continuing on, to me, that's such a core part of the sound that it it sounds weird to me, but I would have thought that with Alice in Chains. You know, that without Layne Staley, it didn't make a lot of sense, but you still had Jerry Cantrell there and he did, you know, like we talked about off air, about half of the vocals anyway. So when you hear new Alice in Chains, it doesn't sound very different. A different vocalist in Linkin Park would sound could potentially sound very strange. Kinda like, you know, if Pantera with a different vocalist, if, say, Phil had died and Dimebag Darrell and Vinnie Paul continue I don't know.
Maybe Randy Bly or somebody. But see, I was hoping for Nikko from Electric Call Boy. Did you see that clip right in the middle of the year? Yeah. You showed me that clip.
He'd be a good fit. You know, it would be sad for that band because they're happen though. They're on the rise. Yeah. You know, they're really blowing up and they could I I would think it would be bad for them as a band for him to do that.
Will they have to choose a metalcore singer versus, like, a person who does regular vocals? Because I feel like if you have the ability to do so, you can then cover faint and all the other, street style. Yeah. You're gonna have to be able to sing clean and heavy Yeah. For sure.
Well, Chester could do that really well. And I could sort of hear Lizzie Hale's voice potentially. I I haven't checked out the, cover of Crawling that she posted. But that's a I haven't either. That's a mellower vocal song.
So it'd be it'd be interesting to hear. I could see her screaming out shut up when I'm talking to you like Chester could. I don't know if I could hear her doing that either. Maybe? You'd be surprised because she came out screaming for the performance at the Mountain America scene.
That's true. That's true. He's a powerful vocalist. Alright. I doubt this one as well, and I I don't think he'd be the right fit.
I don't think Corey Feldman would work either. Oh, Peaches. That was my dream pick. Now they've got Noah Sebastian of Bad Omen. So I don't know why they would come up with that.
Well That's another band that's they're blowing up so big. It would be stupid for the band. He'd be a good, like, feature. Yeah. Maybe as a feature or something like that, but not as the lead guy.
Just do, like, an album with people who could potentially sound like Chester on an album. Maybe that's what they're gonna do. After the singer for the band Snot died, the band had a new album of material ready to go. They were in the process of recording, so they brought in a whole bunch of vocalists like Sayers from System of a Down. You know, kind of all the big artists from the late nineties in the rock slash metal world, to wrap up the album and do the vocals.
So that is an option that I could potentially see a Linkin Park doing. Right? That would make sense. That'd be cool. What else do we hear?
Bonnie Fraser from Stand Atlantic. And I've heard that band, but not a lot. So I I don't know. I don't know how to judge that one. I know that, Katy went and saw them couple years ago.
You know who covered Linkin Park that would also be a great fit? Mhmm. Alex Terrible. Alex Terrible. You know, there we go.
Perfect. He covered giving up and then before for that, lawn scream, Alex just was like, well, how did Chester do this? I can't do this myself. And, yeah, it's pretty funny. What about Tyler Joseph from 21 Pilots?
Yeah. I could see them going a route like that because of star power. You know? And Linkin Park's last album was very pop oriented. You know, we didn't even play any of it on k Bear.
Played it on z. It belongs on z 103. It did. Same with the last single they put out, the, you know, the track Friendly Fire. Down.
Friendly Fire. That was definitely a z one zero three. And people still requested it over here. How about Ollie Sykes, Bring Me the Horizon? Oh.
I've heard him do some Linkin Park covers, but, again, his band is so big. But that would be It seems like it would be damaging to Bring Me to Horizon. Oh, that'd be so cool to have that album feature idea that we had and just have Noah Sebastian, all these Sykes, all those guys, even Maddie Mullins from Memphis May Fire. That'd be really cool. That'd be really cool to see if that would not maybe.
Yeah. You know, so far, the the female vocalists stand out to me as, from a, you know, availability standpoint. Like, Hailstorm, they, you know, kinda hit their peak, I think. I I don't see Hailstorm blowing up bigger than they are, so I could see Lizzie doing something else for a while. Stand Atlantic, you know, they're a rising band, but they're not on the level of, like, Bring Me the Horizon or Bad Omens, something like that.
So Yeah. Bring Me the Horizon sure has grown quite a lot. Oh, yeah. So that'd be a smart career move. They're also suggesting maybe Josh from You Me at 6, Emily Armstrong from Dead Sarah.
I think they chose the guy from You Me at 6 because that band just broke up. Ah. So that could make some sense. Bobby Amaru from Saliva, Jennifer Weiss. Well, see, I thought people were speculating Josie Scott.
Not that I'm well, not on this article. Right. Anyhow, there's a lot of speculation, you know, hence the, Corey Feldman. Those That has been a lot of funny posts regarding this. I like that he's totally embraced the just making a mockery of the live show playing this terrible guitar solo every night.
And then even And he's just leaving it early. Coming out on stage like, I'm watching this guitar solo. Yeah. And it's obviously an awful guitar solo. It'd be like me trying to guitar solo.
So, yeah. 4 PM today, Peaches will be on air and Peaches is gonna, you know, ride that moment live. I might do it my to peach their own question. Who do you think is gonna replace Chester and Lincoln Park at 3 PM? Have those answers go through the whole hour, and then at 4, watch the event.
Yeah. I was gonna say you could go live on, social and watch the video as it happens. You know, like, use the same template. It's sitting here wide open that I used to do those, music video reactions earlier today. So I'm able to put the live video with me reacting to it.
Mhmm. Should I do the stereotypical YouTube reaction thumbnail phase? Yeah. Where you you look like your head's gonna explode like it was the craziest thing you've ever heard was a new riff. Yeah.
That kind of thing. We can make a meme and say you're joining the band. Victor, what? Hey. Don't give away my secrets, peaches.
I've I've got a great Chester Bennington that I can do, you know. Here, let's pull up a Lincoln Park song. I will prove that I am Lincoln Park's new singer. I'll have to bring up the lyrics because I'm still working on those. Who do you think would be like the worst replacement for him?
The worst. Ono. Is she still alive? She is still alive. Well, yeah.
I think she's a wonderful artist myself. I think she's a great singer. You're you're all Yeah. You're dumb. She's awesome.
She's a nice Alright. She chose one of their hard songs. Okay. That's right. I'm gonna audition for Lincoln Park right now.
Alright. Hold on. I gotta bring up the lyrics to this song. I I need to record this. I it's recorded in audition.
You don't need to So I'm getting video No. Because then you can't hear the music with the vocals. It'll sound really bad. Hold on. I don't have the lyrics.
See? Look, I rule. I rule, peaches. Alright. I'm gonna have to stand up to yell.
I'm my own worst enemy. I'm good right up. No. I don't have it in me. No warmed up.
Nothing you can't say. This all the way. What's up again? Tell me what the fuck is wrong. Yeah.
I'm good at censoring myself. There you go. I I need to warm up more, Peaches. It's 9:30 in the morning. Hey.
We got somebody wanting to join you right now on the phone. Okay? We're gonna let them sing. Alright. Listener, it's time for you to audition for Lincoln Park.
Can you hear the music? Redneck don't sing, big Redneck, if you're gonna be on air, you're gonna sing. Here we go. Sing it. Come on.
Come on, right now. Sing it. No. I have I need a And did you guys think you'd have to play? Take this ball away.
That's right. Redneck, where you at with my backup vocals, fool? Here's the best part of the song. Come on, Redneck. Show us what you got.
Let her rip. Come on, buddy. You gotta do the screen, Victor. There we go. Get that build up.
Put me out of my dick. Take your He's still going. Ah, I couldn't hold it out. Couldn't do it. We need we don't need to start voting for Victor.
Vote for Victor? Yeah. Victor for mayor. Come on, Red X. What do you got?
Blue rim clothes. Alright. I'm getting a little more warmed up now. Make them they we need to take them a little heavier. That's what I think.
Why did I do that? Now later, I'll be like, my throat's bothering me. Okay. I think I've got allergies. Later this evening, Victor's gonna sound like he sings bass for the Oak Ridge Boys.
That's right. I'm gonna need to work on my typo negative vocals next. Doug's gonna take over as the lead vocalist of typo as well. Tomorrow, you gotta pretend you're Jay Davis. You gotta say the Jay Davis morning show.
It's me, Jay Davis. And then say something like heinous stuff. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Well, I'll just use AI Jay Davis.
Oh, that's right. Yeah. Punch in all kinds of horrific things. Be like, boss man, did you hear what Jay said on my show? He's out of control.
He's a maniac. So big big Lincoln Park announcement coming at 4 o'clock. Peaches is gonna stream that live. Whoo. And, Redneck, thank you for calling.
Yeah. I had a quick question on, if you guys had the Are you on topic? The set that, Avatar did the other night. Go to setlist.com. Setlist.com?
That's right. Setlist.fm, I think. Setlist.fm. Yeah. That's the website.
There you go. Alright. I appreciate it, guys. I'll tell I'm trying to find a certain song. I've listened to every song that they have so far and I haven't found it yet.
Well, yeah. Setlist. That's the, website to go to. You're welcome. Alright.
Thanks, guys. You're welcome. See you. So harsh with it. You're welcome.
You know who'd be a bad replacement for, Lincoln Park? I'm pointing at the sign right now. It's John Cooper. No. It's not Cooper of skillet.
I'm unpopular. I'm tired of them trying to cancel Lincoln Park. Man. It's the Victor Welt Show just about wrapped up for the day, but I'll be back at noon for the noon hour of madness and mayhem powered by Jalisco's. Before I go, just saw a tweet from Stephen King talking about the TV show From, which we talked a little bit about yesterday.
He was highly recommending it to horror fans and watched a couple episodes of that last night, as a matter of fact. Started watching it with my lady over the weekend at her recommendation, and it is really good. Really good. So, I mean, had she not recommended it, I would have probably added it to the list based on the Stephen King recommendation, but just throwing it out there to you in case you're looking for something good to watch. It's on MGM Plus, which was a service I didn't didn't even know existed, but that's where you'll find it.
Support it. It's good. And I gotta say also, I was looking at my bookshelves last night because they're all over the house. Alright? Chances are if I'm hanging out there, there's a bookshelf in sight.
I was looking at my Stephen King books, and I just gotta say thank you to Stephen King for not turning out to be a dirtbag piece of crap. Alright? There have been too many artists over the years that I was a big fan of and then they end up just being terrible human beings. And Stephen King is a great human being. Alright?
Maybe you don't agree with him politically but, you know, he puts positivity and good good stuff out there into the world as well as putting out some of the greatest stories ever told. Mentioned yesterday that we watched Pet Sematary over the weekend, the eighties version. It was very good. But, yeah, I I swear, man, if Stephen King ended up being a dirtbag, I would be so mad because the bulk of my home library is Stephen King books. I have multiple copies, multiple editions of so many different books, and I would not want to have to feel ashamed at that collection.
You know? So thank you, Stephen King, for for being a good human being. And, soon as I win the lotto, then I'll be able to make my dreams come true and purchase the really expensive Stephen King collectibles that I cannot afford. By the way, to the guy who was selling some Stephen King books locally and never messaged me back on the marketplace, screw you, buddy. Looked like good deal on some, editions I didn't have.
And I that's how I shop. Good deal or nothing. It's gotta be a a real good d screaming deal or nothing. Anyway, I'm gonna get out of here. And like I said, I'll be back at noon with peaches.
Have a good rest of the morning. Appreciate you tuning in. As always, your support means everything. Follow me on all the socials, all of them, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter threads. Heck, follow me on TikTok.
I need to probably post something, but there's old videos. They're super cringe too. Thank you again for tuning in to the Victor Welt show. This program's a production of river. This program's a production of river.
