The Viktor Wilt Show

Yo. How's it going? It's Viktor Wilt. Good morning. Welcome to Thursday or good afternoon or good evening or whatever.

Looks like, a lot of people been listening to the show on demand. I guess it don't suck too bad. I don't know. The last few have been pretty good. Hopefully, today is decent.

You know, you wouldn't think this would be that tough of a job. Right? You jump on a microphone and yap. It's that finding content that's fun that I could put some kind of an angle on that I may or may not know something about but, you know, at least I can pretend and try to entertain you as you head to work or do whatever you're doing to get rolling for the day. Yeah.

I mean, there are some mornings where I just wanna punch myself in the face because I feel like I'm sucking and not delivering, you know, at least a decent show for you. So, yeah, I'm hoping today ends up pretty good. We'll we'll see. Let's take a look at Internet predictions here to start the show. Why not?

Right? What's your I'm calling it now prediction? What kind of predictions do I have? I I don't know. It's a little bit early to start pondering the future.

You know? What's gonna happen? I don't know. I need more coffee. I ran out of instant coffee at my house.

No way to start the day. Let's see. According to people on the internet, very popular prediction right now, and I could I could believe this one. All social networks will crumble under the weight of AI generated content and will be deserted or or will be need or will need to be completely overhauled to remain usable by humans. It's already getting that way.

How much of your social media feed is AI that you know is AI? Like, it's blatantly obvious. Like, the, very funny videos making the rounds where I've seen multiple versions of the same one where there'll be an airplane and all of a sudden there's an explosion in the airplane. And you got a mom with a baby, and she panics. So she's crying.

She throws the baby out the window of the airplane. The baby starts falling. And then magically, it's got a shoot kinda like when the stork drops the baby. But the baby falls into the ocean, and then a little kitty will come swimming up and rescue the baby, swim it back to shore with the, baby on its back, and then it'll raise the baby on a deserted island. Have you seen that?

So those are AI videos that you know are AI. If you didn't know, those are AI. K. That that's not real. But then you've got the percentage of your social media feed that's AI that may or may not be real.

You know, the it's usually pretty obvious but not obvious enough that a lot of people won't fall for it. For some reason, lately, celebrities doing crazy deeds seem to be the videos that are popping up the most on my feed. And people fall for these, like, crazy. Like, oh, Elon Musk went into a burning building and ran out with four babies in his arms. And, you know, they've got this, AI generated photo of Elon Musk holding a a big pile of babies and, you know, he's all covered in soot.

You're like, that that didn't happen. But people are putting the, you know, the heart emojis and I I've seen some with, Jelly Roll recently that were like alright. Jelly Roll's doing a lot of good things for people. But some of these images I'm seeing, I'm like, come on. He doesn't even have tattoos on his face that is not Jelly Roll.

K? He's very easy to spot. As far as I know, he hadn't started wearing makeup to cover up his tattoos. Yeah. I I could certainly see with the crazy fast way at which ai content has taken over social media it just crushing everything else at some point and people giving up You know at this point it's all fun and games but I have seen this affecting, you know, the reach of you know just normal people's content like my own or else people just don't like me anymore.

Could be one or the other. Let's see here. Coursework, homework will no longer be used for formal assessment because of AI. I'm surprised, it's being used now. You know?

Like, it is a great time to be a teenager in high school if you have homework because yeah. Okay. Let's see. Let me let me just feed my homework into chat g p t. Here's all the answers.

You know, you can't do it in a formal testing situation yet. They'll figure out a way to be able to, like, somehow use your thoughts to, you know, pipe the questions into your phone, and then it routes it back into your head. I don't know. Let's see. Someone trying to think of a positive one.

With our growing older population, the emphasis of curing Alzheimer's will be bumped more as a priority, and the current trials that have been looking good will get more of a push to mainstream practice. I I would hope so. You know, in the modern age, you know, we've got a lot of medical advancements that'll lead to people living to older ages. I'm I'm I'm hoping I make it aways. I'd like to be around for a while.

I I would hope some of these, you know, things like Alzheimer's, dementia, that they would start to, work a little bit harder on them if we are going to have a larger older population. So it's it's a decent prediction. It's optimistic, kind of hard to be optimistic in this day and age. So I I like seeing that. Alright.

Let's see. It all seems to be about automated stuff, you know, automated vehicles, automated forklift drivers. Yeah. No kidding. Internet search will be completely useless soon.

You'll hear a rumor or just make one up, do a search for it, and AI bots will just generate pics and news confirming it. The truth will be completely indiscernible. I we're halfway to that point now. I mean, there's the news itself, depending on what news source you watch, you're going to get a certain perspective on it. We're we're pretty much already at the point where a lot of people have no idea how to find out the truth and fake information gets shared.

So you know, just rampant that I'm just kind of coasting at this point, people. I hope the future's okay for our children. But it's been a wild ride living in the times that I grew up in watching the changes that have happened. I'm sure that's what everybody says but let's see here. Alright.

Yep. You know, it's just a lot of people predicting, more AI stuff. So alright. That's enough with predictions for now. You see this article about this guy who made a new leash?

New leash for dogs. Now I saw this pop up yesterday, but I didn't read it. So, we might as well check it out since we've got a local inventor trying to help out dog owners, Thomas Nelson from Rigby. Guess he was tired of his hand getting crushed in the constant tug and pull every time he took his Labrador for a walk, so he made this, hands free leash. Alright.

So it has a handle with an adjustable strap to wrap around your waist and a built in bungee feature absorbs the shock from your dog's tugging and pulling so you don't feel it. I was gonna say, you know, you wrap a leash around your waist. You might suddenly get, yanked to the ground. Now I'm looking at this guy's dog. I'm not judging.

Alright? Just doesn't look like a very big dog. You wouldn't think it was that tough that it's crushing your hand, but hey. This is, a great product. It has reflective strips on it for walking at night and, it's also super easy to use.

That's pretty cool. That guy looks familiar too. I swear I've met this guy. Thomas Nelson. Why does he look so familiar?

Well, anyway, we've had a lot of dog related news here in East Idaho, like Reginald, the world's tallest dog living in Idaho Falls, which, you know why have we not lined up peaches for a photo shoot with this dog if we have the tallest dog in the world isn't that kind of in the world and also the tallest radio DJ in the world Yeah. There's probably somebody taller, but Peaches, just claim it. We gotta get them out for a photo shoot. Here's what we do. We get, Thomas Nelson down here with the leash.

We hook the leash onto Peaches, the leash onto the world's tallest dog, and we just send Peaches out on into the streets. Right? Not literally into the streets, you know, not in oncoming traffic, but, you know, just now roaming around town. If you've seen the recent videos, Peaches needs a pal. He needs a friend.

Alright? I'm not saying that we need to give him the world's largest dog, but maybe they just get to hang out every once in a while. And he can take it for a walk with this incredible leash created by Thomas Nelson. Now if you wanna buy the hands free leash, it is available on Amazon. Search for, PawForm, p a w f o r m, one word, PawForm hands free dog leash.

And, it's got, nothing but five star ratings. Looks like people are digging it. So, no. If you got a dog and it's been crushing your hand. Oh, they have the same dog in the picture.

That's in the article. Isn't that, precious. Anyway, if you got a problem with the dog crushing your hand, Thomas Nelson got you taken care of. Pretty cool. These are the type of stories you can find at eastIdahonews.com.

Not all the news has to be bad news. Could just be fun dog news. Alright? Brightening up your day. Oh, I hope you had a good evening last night.

I managed to get myself, you know, pretty much enraged last night. I I had a weird day yesterday. It went all over the place. You know, I had a good day. I was productive at work.

I had a fun show. Everything went well as far as I can recall, and then I got off work. You know, it seemed like a normal afternoon. It was going fine pretty much right after I got off. It got home, and I had a few things I needed to get done.

I you know, simple tasks. Needed to pay some bills, and I was going to mow my front yard because my front yard looks terrible, and I'm sure my neighbors, you know, the retired folks that are surrounding me in the cul de sac, I'm sure they're getting very disappointed with how trashy my yard's looking. It look it doesn't look good. I know it. So I was like, alright.

I'm gonna go home. I'm gonna pay a few bills, and then I'm gonna mow the lawn. Simple day. Right? Piece of cake.

No. No. Go up to my studio, get on my nice computer, sit down and I'm like, this thing not running very good. Guess I'll reboot it. So give it the old reboot.

It installs some kind of a Windows update. I thought it was sounding kind of weird too. Thought it was hearing a sound out of it. Turn it back on. Bam.

It just turns off. I'm like, okay. I don't like that. But this has happened before after a Windows update. So I figure, oh, it's gonna kick back on.

It's gonna have some errors and it's gonna fix it and it'll it'll be fine. No. It's dead. The computer's dead. It's just not working.

I managed to get it to turn on at one point and I was all excited but then I hear I don't know what piece of hardware inside of it is broken but all I do know is I don't have the money to buy computer parts times are tough and I would imagine I mean thankfully it's an older computer hopefully there are parts that are already sitting in The US, you know, for a reasonable rate. What if I gotta pay that, you know, the new the new tariff rates for computer components? So now I gotta get, like, Jade or someone over to my house to, you know, help me troubleshoot it because I know computers pretty well. But when it comes to taking them apart and things like that, I'm just a little uneasy. So I'm all frustrated because I need my computer.

Alright? For a variety of reasons. It's 2025. K? Now I have another crappy computer hooked up to my TV so I was able to pay the bills.

Then I'm paying bills and I'm going to pay one off. You know what If if you pay off a bill, how how good that feels. You're like, alright. And I've had a game plan to pay this one off for a while. Was, a a bill for tires.

You know? And when it comes to my truck, I've I've had some frustrations recently. So anything to do with my truck could potentially, you know, put me into a meltdown mode. I'm I'm very defeated when it comes to some issues with my truck as of late. So I go to pay the bill off on my truck tires, and I had apparently done my math wrong on, you know, when I needed to pay it off because it was a finance thing.

You know, you get a certain amount of time, you finance, and you get zero interest. I'm like, great. You know, I'll I'll pay these big chunks each month. You know, it's a pain, but once I get it paid off, great. I timed it wrong.

So they smashed me with all of the interest. So I called them, you know, a good half hour on the phone with a, you know, a credit card company, basically. And I'm like, please. Can you see? Look, look.

Had I paid this two weeks ago, you wouldn't have applied these hundreds of dollars of fees. Please. Can you do anything for me? And this is why you should always be nice to customer service. Alright?

Don't ever start yelling at them or anything like that. Just be polite and, see what they can do to help you out. They did eventually work with me a little bit on the fees. I still had to pay stuff. I so mad that I had to pay, but it wasn't as bad as it could be.

So by the end of that, I I was just so mad. I got a broken computer. I don't know what what it's gonna take to fix it. I just had to dump hundreds of dollars that I didn't want to or expect to into a bill. It you know, money's tight for all of us these days.

I got an empty fridge. Yeah. Because I've been eating soft foods because of the, you know, the teeth thing, which, you know, is fine now. I think I'm back to just being able to eat normal. But I don't know.

It just got kinda dark in my house last night. I was so bummed out. But there, you know, there's still good sprinkled throughout the evening for sure. Yeah. It wasn't all bad.

But, you know, again, these are first world problems. Right? I was able to pay the bill. I'll hopefully be able I have a computer, you know, that, hopefully, I can fix. These are things that, it it could be worse.

I could have no vehicle. I could have no computer, but it still had me just completely enraged. So really open today works out better. Or I'm I'm just gonna sleep all weekend. Just gonna close all the curtains, hide in my dark house and just sleep I can't take it anymore so anyway that that that was my, evening and thank you for letting me vent to you about it because it was it, it was not good.

Kept me from being able to get to sleep, but that's all right. What do you do? Forge ahead. Life's challenging, throws surprises at you, and sometimes you just gotta figure it out. Anyway, there you go.

I got it out of my system. I'll get back to telling you about dumb things in the news, like don't eat cucumbers or whatever. Alright. Warning. We got health warnings.

Some of which, you know, may actually be worth talking about. Others due to the content I'm just going to talk about. Alright. We'll start with cucumbers. K.

Apparently, there's been a salmonella outbreak prompting a cucumber recall. These are for cucumbers grown by South Florida based Bedner Growers between April 29 and May 19. Now as far as people getting sick, they don't have Idaho listed as one of the 15 states where people are having problems. But they also said, yeah, we don't really know where all these cucumbers went. So you should probably take a look at your cucumbers.

And, you know, if you can't tell if it was grown by Bednar Growers, just, you know, throw it out. You know, Take a look and see if it's Bedner Growers or Fresh Start Produce Sales Inc. And, you know, hopefully, retailers are dealing with this. But, yeah. Chuck the cucumbers.

K? Just in case. That's what they're saying to do. And then in other health related news now this was in China, but it could happen anywhere. A man with never ending cough has been diagnosed with, parrot chlamydia after accidentally breathing in chicken poo.

Yeah. Flu like illness caused by contact with infected chickens. How many chicken problems do we gotta worry about? Jeez. This one can leave you with, severe pneumonia or brain and heart inflammation.

Man, this dumb guy right here, last thing I need is, you know, a brain inflammation already, you know, dumb enough. I don't know if brain inflammation makes you dumb. Alright. I'm no scientist here But, yeah, this this guy, he kept pigeons. He had chickens.

And, yeah, they said he accidentally breathed in a little bit of, chicken poo. They found inside of his lungs ground glass opacite opacities? Sorry. I know the tough word to read early. A hazy pattern that shows up with people with viral pneumonia or, COVID.

And this is a bad thing to try to get rid of. Parrot fever. They gave him antibiotics. He just kept getting worse and worse. This guy was a mess.

So yeah. Another reason I'm gonna stay away from birds. Just, you know, be aware of poo. Poo can do some bad things to you. Beware the poo.

Alright. Here we go. Let's party freak news. Okay. Got a news broadcaster.

New York area. I don't know how you say the name of this city. Schenectady? I I I don't know. Anyway, she was pregnant.

Her water bursts while live on air. She goes into labor, and then she just still keeps doing the show. I mean, this this sound like a, you know, just overzealous program director behind the scenes. Hey. Listen.

I know you got a baby on the way, but, you know, we can't have any dead air. Alright? You need to make sure to finish the show, then you can go deliver your baby or else you need to just deliver that baby right here live on the air. So anyway, yeah, she did the show and finished it up and then, yeah, went and delivered her baby. Congratulations.

They, they shared it on social media and everything, I guess. You know, you gotta get that content out there. Olivia's water just broke in the newsroom. This might be a first for CBS six. Oh, she actually talks about it?

Okay. Hang on. Let's see if we can, pull up this audio here. Water. Guys, this is an April fools.

Olivia's water broke in the newsroom. Right? In the newsroom. In the new okay. Here.

Hold the phone. You gotta tell people you gotta tell people what's going on. Okay. I don't know what's going on. This is my first time.

I'm new here. I'm new here. So yesterday Okay. That's a three hour video, and that it's not the news broadcast. It's like a a phone video.

Three hours? Okay. Well, congratulations. Alright. What else do we have here?

Okay. I already talked about the cucumbers. I guess if you own a bearded dragon, little lizards, not the type of pet I would own. I'm I'm I'm a wuss. They, you know, kinda scare me.

I like kittens. Alright? Little kittens. But I don't know if I could rely on my cats to, save my life like this bearded dragon. This guy, he gets woke up middle of the night by his bearded dragon spike, jumped on his face and just started, you know, scratching and, you know, jumping around, opens his eyes, and sees that his bathroom is on fire.

Yeah. He slept through the smoke alarms. That sounds like something I would do. Sometimes I am just out, out cold. I think I need to put a smoke alarm, like in my room.

There's one right outside of my bedroom door, but I think I need to put one in there. Because yeah. Koopa. Well, he's pretty good at waking me up. He's pretty loud, but he tries to wake me up all the time.

So I'd probably sleep through that too. I usually just ignore the like, you can go outside in a bit. Chill. Let me sleep. It's the weekend.

Wrong with you. So, anyway, congrats to this guy as well for having his life saved by his pet. Generally, it's dogs that do that, but, apparently, bearded dragons, very good as well. Finally, you know, I wouldn't think a pawnshop's the best place to try to rob. You know?

I mean, pawnshops sell like guns and stuff. Right? Well, somebody tried to rob a Japanese pawn shop, and the owners just beat the crap out of this guy. They sprayed him with bug spray and then just started, swinging golf clubs then started smashing up the getaway car. Did he end up getting caught?

Oh, they smashed the windshield so it would crack and they wouldn't be able to see squared off against the guy with a crowbar. Yeah. This was a an older couple fighting two burglars. And, yeah. Let's see.

This is a long article. I mean, they're talking about spraying the bug spray through a hole in the window. Just pumping that, insecticide into the vehicle. The guys ended up running off. They left their, vehicle and their sack of, you know, would be stolen goods behind and, no injury to the owners.

Nothing like that. Now they're, I guess, still on the lookout for the They're criminals, but, you never know. Never know. Try to rob somebody. Might end up having a really bad time.

Bug spraying a golf club to the head. Doesn't sound pleasant. Alright. Back with more in a minute. I really don't know why people gotta fight about everything nowadays.

You know, we talk about it a lot. No matter what the topic is, no matter how good it is, people will find a way to get all butthurt and start arguments on social media about anything. You could have world hunger has been solved. Somebody's gonna have negative comments about it. Well, I was looking at an article that popped up about a topic I've talked about many times on this show, the Cascadia Subduction Zone and what would happen if a major rupture happened along that.

We'd have, you know, a megathrust earthquake. And this article says scientists warn if a 1,000 foot mega tsunami spurs from an active fault line, it could wipe part of America off the map. Now when I've been on the West Coast, you know, you'll see the tsunami zones. I thought it was like a a a hundred foot wave or something. I I don't know.

A thousand foot wave. That's crazy. So I don't know if the independent got something wrong there. I'd have to, pull up some other articles about this. But anyhow, there there have been countless articles about, you know, a mega tsunami hitting the West Coast for years.

And, the earthquake could, you know, do major damage to cities like Seattle and Portland. You know, parts of the West Coast probably completely wiped out. Like, I know I've read that one of the worst spots was, like, Seaside Oregon, which sucks because it's a cool town. But, basically, from Northern California all the way up to, Vancouver, You know? British Columbia could get, you know, eight point o earthquake and then also this mega tsunami.

So this is just a little bit of science. You know, they've figured out through, you know, taking samples from the ground and things like that. How often these things happen, it's every few hundred years. So we're at this point, you know, likely to see this happen within the next fifty years. You go to the comments on the article, and then the dumpster fire erupts.

You got people talking about it. Ah, this is a scam for insurance companies to raise rates. Blah blah blah. The yeah. Insurance company and science nerds working for the, like, US geological survey.

They're in cahoots. Why does everything have to be a conspiracy theory? And then for some reason, the comments just spiral out of control into political arguments that you see on every other article. Like, what does the, president of The US have to do whatsoever with this? You know?

There are people fighting about Biden and Trump in the comments on a science article. I just don't understand people. There's not even any logic to how they get there. They just start going with it. Like, I don't know what happened with science.

You know? When all of a sudden, people just don't believe in science anymore. But, you know, my daughter lives on the West Coast. I've constantly talked to her about you need to, you know, be prepared in case this happens. You know, make sure you've got, extra water in your vehicle, you know, some snacks that could get you by for a few days.

I sent her a really, you know, huge first aid kit to keep in her vehicle just a week or two ago. I'm paranoid about it. You know? I I worry about her being over there if something happened because I don't know if you've if you've never watched any documentaries about this. It's crazy.

It's crazy. It'd be like the worst natural disaster, the country's ever seen. But I guess, you know, in 2025, some people they just put our heads in the sand. You know? I just don't get people.

Anyway, try to try to avoid arguing about stupid things. Just always. I don't get it. People have lost their minds. Well, I hope you have a great Memorial Day weekend coming up.

Weather's still looking good. Actually, let me pull it up and dive a little bit deeper here. Because do you know what Memorial Day weekend's like around here? Every year, great forecast all week. But then once that weekend actually approaches, all of a sudden, so does that forecast.

Now they're still optimistic about, mid to high seventies and sunny in the cities. So maybe I'll actually be able to get something done around my house. And as long as I can avoid finding broken things around my house and having a meltdown about it. Stupid computer. Okay.

So, anyway, speaking of Memorial Day, you know, paying tribute to those who are lost defending our country, We wanna try to do something to give back a little bit. So after Memorial Day on Monday, June 2, we're gonna be doing the Memorial Day cleanup, and we'd love to have you out if you wanna join us for this. We're gonna be heading out to a variety of local cemeteries in the area to, help clean up and take care of the tributes left behind. I will personally be at the Rose Hill Cemetery in Idaho Falls kicking off at 8AM on Monday, June 2, and Peaches is gonna be at Fielding Memorial at the same time. We'll be teamed up with Teton auto credit, you know, just doing some cleanup, and you're welcome to join us.

We'd love to have you out there. I've talked to a few listeners who are gonna come out, which is great. You know, it's a simple way to give back a little bit and show some respect. So, if you're in a different area, our sister stations are gonna be out and about as well. The Hawk's gonna be at the Rexburg Cemetery with Teton Volkswagen at 10AM Blackfoot Cemetery, you're gonna have classy ninety seven hanging out with Teton Honda at 8AM.

And then Z103 is gonna be at the Shelley Cemetery with Teton Toyota at 7AM. So we're we're gonna kinda be out and about all over the place, and we'd love to have you out with us helping out with the, memorial cleanup. So, yeah, mark your calendar. Come say hi. Would be great to see you.

And, I hope again that you have a wonderful and safe Memorial Day weekend. You know, drive cautiously Memorial day weekend, the kickoff of the 100 deadliest days of driving in Idaho. So, yeah, be extra aware on the roads, be safe. You know, if you're out having fun, get yourself DD. You know, don't do stupid things while camping.

You know, I hope you, hope you have a great time with your fam. Alright? Sometimes people decide to take their kids to weird places on vacation. You know, what three year old is going to enjoy a trip to Ford's Theater? Yeah.

You know where, Abraham Lincoln was shot by John Wilkes Booth? Well, his family decided, yeah, this sound like a great time. Let's take our daughter, little three year old Laney, and let's teach her about, American history. So they went to Ford's Theater Museum in Washington, DC and explained that president Abraham Lincoln was hurt by someone named John Wilkes Booth. And apparently, that just stuck in this kid's head.

So days later, you know, they visit the Lincoln Memorial and she's like, he got shot by John Wilkes Booth. She recognized Abraham Lincoln, and John Wilkes Booth just sat in her her little head. So they got home, and now she's just terrified that John Wilkes Booth is hiding in her room. He's under my bed. So, like, every night they've got to go in, check under the bed for John Wilkes Booth, check-in the closets.

And, you know, they've tried to assure her that he isn't alive. He's been gone for, you know, like a hundred fifty years, but she still can't chill on it. You never know what's gonna traumatize your children. You don't need to teach a three year old about John Wilkes Booth. Okay?

They'll learn about John Wilkes Booth in elementary school eventually. And, hopefully, by that age can realize, people don't live to, you know, 200 years old or whatever. But I don't know. I think their videos are pretty popular on social media where she's just in horror. The John Wilkes Booth might be hiding in a room.

And then, you know, they've they've got pictures of Abraham Lincoln hanging up too. I I don't know. That's just a reminder. You know, you you can't give this girl pennies. K?

Clear the Abraham Lincoln out of your house if your daughter is terrified of things relating to Abraham Lincoln. So anyway yeah how about the the kids science museum I don't know what they've got in Washington DC but there's got to be better places to take a three year old than the you know Lincoln Memorial or the place where Lincoln was shot. They they have to have some kind of, fun family activities to do, but I've never been there, so I don't know. Oh, you're on mic three. Turn me on, fool.

Use mic two. No. Oh, jeez. No. I want this one.

I already heard enough of that. Would you like to let people know about driving during the one one hundred deadliest days of driving? Brent Gordon Long, all one zero one care till you arrive alive during the one hundred one deadliest days on the road. Ugh. Or if you want the the K Bear one.

See if I can sound like Brian. K Bear. K Bear. Getting close. Maybe somewhere in there.

Yeah. You come in here. You turn all the lights on, the school lights as I call them. And then I got seven minutes of, alright, everybody, with my Be safe. All +1 01, alternative, that voice right there Yeah.

Where I just I'm here, but I don't really care. Don't become a statistic. That's right. Oh, Jeez. You turned the lights on so I wouldn't fall asleep, I think.

That's right. The nice soothing sounds of the voice of Jade Davis. I'm trying to voice that first thing in the morning when my voice is more like this. Oh, yeah. It It's all gravelly.

Voice work. It's no time to do voice work at 8AM. Unless you're doing movie trailer stuff this summer. Yeah. It's a 101 dead last days on the road.

Why don't you do them that way? That'd be kinda fun. Make them really gruesome. Yeah. You could get pretty descriptive.

This is what could happen to you. Try like those the insurance commercials, you know, the ones where he's just beat to death. Yeah, dude. They used to have them can happen anywhere. They used to have much better commercials like, you know, don't park on the train tracks.

Then they would show just mangled vehicles and dead people. The best ones were the don't do meth ads that were on the billboards. Those ones. Those were the trains. Woah.

You know, just people with rotting faces, dead bodies. You know, you're like, okay. I won't. Jeez. Why did they stop doing those?

That had to be an effective campaign. Would think so. But I'm sure Karens were call yeah. You're scary images out when I'm driving with my family. You know?

Sometimes you gotta show people the truth. Alright? Sometimes people need to face reality. Alright? With a pizza face.

Yeah. You know, the people all curled up in a dirty bathroom. You know, they're all bruised up and the skin's green. This is my show, dude. What are you talking about?

I could make up my show real quick. Does that mean I get to sleep in? Nope. I'll still call you at 6AM. You would.

You would. At least now you have the record for hitting me up the latest. You know, I've I've hit you up kinda late before. You you hit me up pretty late the other evening. It it was fun.

It's because I figured you were still awake. I was. Doing one of the things. Hey. I don't know about that.

I was Wow. I was just simply up reading. You know? Just reading a good book. Yeah.

This weekend's gonna be, hopefully, a little bit more relaxation than last week. We did a lot of work last weekend. Yes. We did. So A classy ninety seven second chance prom.

That was fun. It was fun. I saw they put me in all my glory in the recap video. Arms outstretched, looking awesome. Thank you, Maddie.

I assume she threw that video together. Should've put the Peaches Pal video in there. Yeah. The Peaches Powell video is right. With that one.

Just right at the end there. That is such a funny video. Yeah. It's it's a pretty funny, trend. You know, if you happen to see Peaches by himself in public, just film him a little bit, send him the video, and then we'll put the music to it.

Oh, by my fair. Peaches needs friends, everybody. Alright. Well, now that I'm done listening to you babble on for seven minutes about road safety Well, guess what? You're gonna hear more of it over the summer.

Okay. 101 deadliest days on the road start this weekend. That's right. I actually mentioned that earlier. And K Bear one zero one and Brent Gordon Law want you to be safe.

Jeff, I got the message. Because we cares. Who cares about which is You know what would be good? You put the whole VO All in one. All in one, all seven or eight minutes, and that's what airs every time the CARES message airs with all of your, like, clearing your throat.

Yeah. All of the flubs. Yeah. People don't realize what it takes for us to have these polished promos some days. I was talking with our new guy, Tyson, about that yesterday.

You know, some days, you're just trying to read a spot and it isn't happening. Or you get a phrase where the the the words don't work with your tongue Yeah. But other people can make it work, but for some reason, it doesn't work with yours. That was one of the reasons that I wanted to stop calling K Bear Idaho's only real rock station. Real rock.

Rear rock. Rear rock. It's so hard to say. Rear rock. Rear rock.

It's like, no. Drive to Hotel's only real rock station. Yeah. We're just the only rock station. That's much easier to say.

I mean, it's funner. More arrogant. It yeah. It's way more arrogant. It's way more point for rock.

Yeah. It's funny when people hit us up every once in a while. I'm like, dude, I I know there are other rock stations. You don't rock. Only I rock.

Shut up. They don't exist. Fake. Fake news. Alright.

Well, do you have any more VO you need to record? I will we'll see what Peaches does. Alright. If he deletes this one, then yes. Peaches, if I have to listen to Jade talk about road safety for eight minutes straight again, I'm coming for you, bro.

I wanna go from seven to eight. I don't care how big you are. Coming for you. Yeah. Yeah.

Suffering thukatast. I had braces for, like, two years as an adult and, trying to do a radio show with braces was was horrible. Trying to do anything with braces is horrible. Oh, here. Let me turn these lights on real quick.

Peaches, if you touch that light switch, I'm gonna break a kneecap. Oh, the big light. The big light. So what's this, break you had for the show, please? So, you know, Jade was in here doing the old one zero one voice.

Don't remind me. Yes. Well, I realized yesterday I didn't have the VO from him. Yes. And so I decided, like, hey, you know what?

We have AI. Potentially, I could, you know, voice it. But then I took his audio, like, from previous months of him recording Mhmm. And put it into Eleven Labs, and it's there if you wanna use it. That's some footage in Eleven Labs.

Yeah. It's AI JD. I just, tried messing with it with, with Maddie there. I put, like, Victor Wolf's the best. God, I suck.

And this whole Nice. Well, you know, funny enough, I've been so busy because, you know, I'm, you know, I I'm required to do so many tasks around here. I haven't even got to play with 11 laps yet. Everybody gets to have all the fun but me. I'm listening to country music day after day after day.

It's all I do is listen to country music. If you ever wanna switch, let me know. You can play with Eleven Labs. I'll listen to country music. Sure.

I'll I'll I'll take the bullet for you. Alright. I got you. Because Eleven Labs sounds like fun. I know Brad Barlow's on there, and I need to make all kinds of VO with Brad Barlow talking about how awesome I am.

So now Jade's on there too. Yeah. Let's just get, everyone we know on there. I'll pull it up real quick. I don't know how to use it.

Oh, just go to Eleven Labs. Even have logins. Type it just type into Eleven Labs. It automatically logs in. If I'm in your profile?

Any profile. It won't automatically just log in, Peaches. Fine. I'll go to your profile. Go to Eleven Labs.

Oh my gosh. You're you're giving me training on air. Hey, guys. Welcome back to my tutorial. Peach is talking to the microphone.

I can't hear you. Can't go to the microphone. There you go. That'd that'd be more helpful. K.

Voice. Okay. Don't touch that light switch. Okay. Now search for JD.

No. No. No. Go to go to my voices. Oh my gosh, Peaches.

You're a nightmare. Right there. The top one. Click on the click on the preview. K.

Tell me this sounds like Jade. K. Let me turn down that audio. Astronomy teaches us about faraway worlds as lemonade cools the iciest thirst. That does sound like Jade Davis.

Yeah? Now what's this? Why you you don't you be trying to put me up in here. I was trying to clone your voice. I know you tried to get me to read some kind of a sentence.

I'm like, no. I'm not gonna read that sentence. Your the cadence in your voice is, like, kinda hard to replicate. I I don't think they pretty monotone. Yeah.

I don't think they could AI me very well. Right. Because I'm I'm very expressive. That's why people love me. Absolutely.

Yeah. You know? Sure. Okay. You know, you we could easily clone Peaches.

He's a Howard Stern clone as it is. That's right. Have you tried putting your voice in there yet? I think I did. It made me sound a little bit more feminine, to be quite honest.

Brenda Pear back. Brenda Pear. Oh, that's right. Yeah. Well, you so go to use on the right hand side there.

Go to use. Yeah. Go to use AI JD. Okay. Let's use Jade.

And then you can type in anything you want. The world is your oyster. We'll just hear, clicking sounds this for the next, twenty seconds. Let's see how this works. And then generate speech.

Victor Wilt is so awesome. Alright. Alright. And you can speed it up. You can also, talk as yourself, and it'll change it into Jade's voice.

Okay. There's a little bit faster. Victor Wilt is so awesome. K. How do I record, Voice changer?

Voice changer. Are you listeners really enjoying this? This is fun, isn't it? Hand side. Okay.

Voice changer. And then record anything that you wanna do. Like, right now, we'll stay quiet. K? Hey.

It's Jay Davis. Victor Wilt is so cool. He's just the best radio DJ of all time, and I just wanna announce to everyone in East Idaho, I'm giving him a big fat raise today. So you heard it first right here. I promise I'm giving it to him, and I if if he, he claims that, I didn't, do so, here here's the proof for blah blah blah blah blah.

Okay. Probably the nicest words to ever come out of his mouth. And then go to generate speech on the bottom there. Alright. I wish I was more prepared for this break.

You know, you gotta give me the heads up on what we're doing. Gotta keep you on your Hey. It's Jay Davis. Victor Wilt is so cool. He's just the best radio DJ of all time, and I just want to announce to everyone in East Idaho, I'm giving him a big fat raise today so you Alright.

That's fun. That's fun. He said it. He said it. Yeah.

Alright. Well, thank you for my 11 Labs training. And, Jade, thank you for the raise that's come up my way. I heard you say it, and it's clearly you. Of course.

Of course. Alright. Well, see, Maddie, you don't even sound like you have a lisp. Well, I'm not talking very much, but, like, that second or third day, I got my tongue pierced, and they stuck me at the front desk to talk on the phone. Awful.

Yeah. There were a a few days after I got that gum graft that, you know, I just it it was horrible. Any pain going on, like, in your mouth, like, gum graft, tongue piercing, like, first two days of braces, Oh. Yeah. Or when they tighten them up.

Couldn't even eat ramen noodles. Those are dark times. Dark times. Dark times. Yeah.

Can you say structural steel storage systems? Oh, no. Try saying it. Structural steel storage systems. Alright, everybody.

It'll be better when I have a shorter bar in two weeks. Oh, man. This is great. I found Brad Barlow on Eleven Labs. Now if you're not familiar with Brad Barlow, Brad Barlow is an East Idaho radio legend.

Used to be one of the morning hosts on z one zero three. You know, he was very, supportive as I got my start in radio. Very encouraging. He's a great guy, so why not dig in and have some fun with his AI voice on eleven Labs? Oh, now, again, Brad's great.

And, thankfully, he's one of the only guys I know in the market with a sense of humor. If I have some fun, I I don't think he's gonna get butthurt. You know? Hopefully not. You never know.

But, there are a couple different versions of Brad's voice that we can use to, you know, just say whatever. Now he's got the ASMR style voice, which he calls, hey. It's Brad, your favorite boyfriend. Alright. You ready to hear this?

This this made me laugh so hard just because I've known Brad for so many years. But I can see, you know, somebody needs to throw together a commercial or something using this voice. Listen to this. Hey, babe. You don't need to be strong for anyone right now.

Just listen to my voice and breathe. Alright. Thanks, Brad. Here's his, his voice for imaging or, like, movie trailers. Hey.

It's Brad. This is the voice for radio station and podcast imaging, stadium announcements, edgy or dramatic television promos and documentaries. Very, very nice. Hey. It's Brad.

No. I didn't wanna play it. I want to use it. I I don't have to, like, pay or something, do I? This Alright.

I'm going to put together a promo for my show utilizing Brad's voice. But it's gonna take me a few to get it together. I just had to show everybody Brad's sexy voice because it's, it's so funny. Hey, babe. You don't need to be strong for anyone right now.

Just listen to my voice. I think that's the one I'm gonna use to make a promo. You know? Hey. It's Brad Barlow.

If you wanna hear I'm I'm making myself laugh here. You wanna hear the sexiest voice in East Idaho radio. You're tuned into the right place. The Victor Wiltshire. If he licensed his voice out to eleven Labs, I can use it to do that.

Alright. I'm gonna have some fun with this, and, maybe I'll get it done by the end of the show. But thank you, Brad, for publicly announcing that your voice was available on Eleven Labs. Any other radio DJ? Come on.

We need Roper. We need Roper on Eleven Labs. Howdy, partner. You don't you don't like listening to the Victor Wilt show. Yeah.

Come on, Roper. Just just go for it. We're the hawk man. Yeah. Don Jarrett, where you at?

Come on. Shaggy? Come on, Shaggy. I'm not putting my voice on there. No way.

Alright. Before I go, got a question for you. Would you go see the Annabelle doll in person? Alright. If you're not familiar with the Annabelle doll, I guess you've never seen any of the conjuring movies.

The Annabelle doll is a Raggedy Ann doll that is supposed to be cursed. And, you know, it was the basis for the movie Annabelle and such. And the real Annabelle doll, which has been locked in this case, and you're not supposed to touch it and, you know, not supposed to laugh at it or anything. I guess it's currently out on tour, hitting the road. So they took it to Louisiana, and I don't know if you paid attention to the news out of Louisiana in the last week or so.

But upon the arrival of the Annabelle doll well, that, big plantation, the biggest plantation house in the South, I guess, burnt to the ground. I talked about that last week because it, you know, it weirded me out. Not the fact that it burned down, but that it was a place where people would do weddings. You know? Oh, I love you so much.

Let's go to this place with such a, you know, beautiful history and, you know, say our vows to be together till the end of time. Who on earth would wanna have a wedding at a plantation? It's crazy to me. So, I haven't seen a lot of people that seem to be very bummed out about the place burning to the ground, but they're blaming Annabelle. Annabelle came, and now look what happened.

A place with horrible history burnt to the ground. Another thing that happened was a whole bunch of inmates escaped from the, New Orleans prison. I think it was, like, 11 dudes, and some of them were still on the run. Bunch of murderers and things like that. So everybody's freaking out.

Like, oh, it's it's because they brought the Annabelle doll here, and now they brought it over to, San Antonio. And there are complaints rolling in like crazy. People are like, there's too much spooky stuff to ignore. Get Annabelle out of San Antonio. Gonna be in town for the weekend.

Psychic and Spirit Fest. That sounds pretty fun. I'd go. I'd be down to go check out the, psychic and spirit pest. Now the Annabelle doll was originally or I guess even, you know, currently aside from when it's on this road trip, stored at the, Warrens, the Ed and Lorraine Warren Museum or whatever in Connecticut, but it's not open.

You can't go see all of their haunted stuff. Like, if you've seen The Conjuring movies, the Warrens. You know, they got this this room, this basement just packed with haunted stuff. I'd totally go. You know?

How much worse could things get? I don't know. I I would love to have some paranormal stuff just happen right in front of my face. K? Because I it's kinda like aliens.

I want to believe, but I I've never had any good experiences. Maybe I need to go to, the haunted festival. I'm I'm going to Texas this weekend. Screw it. Oh, I bet it's miserable in San Antonio.

Is it pretty hot down there? I don't even wanna know. But, anyway, the people holding this thing are like, you know, it's not Annabelle's fault. It's just a coincidence, but don't open the case. Gotta lock it back up in the Warren's basement, the only place it's apparently safe.

But I I'm kind of amazed that the surviving family members of the Warren family don't open that. Do you know how much money they could make if they open that museum to the public? I mean, you're not going to, make people more afraid of it by not opening it. Maybe they they really believe. You know?

Maybe they truly believe, like, we can't let the public in here. The world will burst into flames. I don't know. If it was me, I'd try to take the dough. You know?

You need every penny you can get nowadays. Money's tight. Groceries are expensive. Yeah. No.

I won't get into that one. Anyway, I'm gonna leave. I'll be back for the noon hour of madness and mayhem. I got kill switching age coming up. I appreciate your company just like every day.

You're the best. I hope you have a wonderful day. Thank you to Brad Barlow for the kind words on my show today, and I'll see y'all in a bit. Alright? Two.

Thank you again for tuning in to the Victor Wilt show. This program is a production of Riverbend Media Group. To contact the show or for more information, hit us up at riverbend media group dot com.
