The Viktor Wilt Show

Speaker 1: Morning! What's up? It's the Viktor Wilt Show. It's Tuesday. Meh. Alright, let's take a look at some dumb myths to kick things off here. Dumbest myths people actually believe in. Should I have previewed this thread? Probably. Because we might get into some things that you believe. And the internet is saying they're not true.

Let's find out. Alright, the one about gum taking seven years to pass through your digestive system. I remember hearing that when I was a kid. Apparently not true. No.

What else do we got? Blood is only blue or blood is blue and only turns red when it reacts to the air. I swear they taught us that in elementary school when I was a kid.

I definitely remember hearing that. And I mean it should have never made any sense because let's say you get your blood drawn. It doesn't touch the air. It's red when it comes out. There ain't vials of blue blood.

You know, just sitting at the red cross. But I, yeah, I remember being taught that when I was a kid. Alright, sovereign citizens believing that laws don't apply to them. Except when it's to their benefit. We've talked about sovereign citizens a little bit during traffic school. If you want to see how well it works out when they try to tell the police that laws don't apply to them. Just watch sovereign citizen videos on YouTube.

Alright. I've yet to see one of them where it works out. The cops are like, yeah, just, alright, see you don't have to have a license. Let's see. Flat Earth. We don't even need to get into that. Let's see here. The Great Wall of China is visible from space without equipment.

Yeah, that one I remember hearing as well. And it doesn't make a lot of sense because it's not like it's very wide. You can't see any other roads from space, right? Well, we only use 10% of our brains. I recall learning that in school too. Maybe these are things you just hear from other kids, but I swear a lot of these I heard in school or that you eat a certain amount of spiders in your sleep every year. That you wake up at least once with the spider in your mouth, right?

Alright, sorry, nobody wants to think about that at this time of day. Let's see that the moon landings were faked. Yeah, yeah, seen a number of YouTube documentaries about that. I'm pretty sure we went to the moon. What else do we have here? Alright, now we're getting into some stuff.

It'd be funny to talk about, but I don't think Jade would like that. You know, alright. Okay, now we're just getting into the stuff that's going to get people angry. So we'll just move along. Alright, I'm going to keep chugging caffeine here.

Stupid Tuesday. Anyway, I'll be back. Oh man, I hope you're doing good. Still slamming down caffeine trying to get all pumped up for the day. I feel like I've got to allergies like crushing me. Hopefully I've got a little bit of allergy medication floating around here somewhere. Gotta get that down.

Alright, let's see here. Did East Idaho news finally update? East Idaho eats?

Yeah, it looks like it. I'm always looking for somewhere new to try. And they hadn't updated that section of their website in a while. About time they get around to it. What do we got that's new? Let's see.

Oh, I've been here before. Yoimi, sushi and tabachi. They're pretty good. Yeah.

I don't know. Little hibachi, salmon kind of kind of nice. Don't know if you can pick that up at 7am anywhere. But oh, they have six locations? Or maybe they've been at six locations, but fat.

Now they're over on Broadway. Yeah, you want to get yourself some food? Check out East Idaho eats under features at eastidohonews.com. I guess if you want to drive all the way to Du Bois, they've got new ice cream shop, sweet tooth. Alright, I shouldn't be looking at ice cream this time of day. Oh, they serve bars ice cream.

It's good stuff. Okay, all right, I'm going to close out the image of ice cream. Okay, and it looks like Lucy's Pizza has opened a new location in Rigby.

Lucy's is good too. Alright, well, that's fine. Just making myself hungry, but I'm glad they're updating that section of the website. I like to know about the new spots. And that's always fun to get out and try something new. I think aside from sweet tooth, I have been to all of those places though. So not really new. Alright, babbling being useless. I mentioned the gas prices yesterday.

Had a listener call me during the morning show. It's like oh, it's like $2.89. It's like cool. By the time I got off work, I think I paid $3.19 a gallon. Great. So yeah, fill up your tank. Now these things could keep heading upward. It's what they're saying. Hopefully it doesn't get too outrageous.

It was just starting to get decent. Well, in good news, I just read that plans are underway to revive OzFest in 2027. Yeah, Sharon Osborn officially confirming this. Now, I don't know if they're going to do a tour though.

It doesn't really say. It used to be a touring festival and it was awesome because you'd be able to, you know, go to it because it would come somewhere close or at least like Vegas close. But I'm guessing they're going to do like they did what maybe a decade or so ago. They did like some one off shows, like one in LA, one in New York or something like that. Anyway, I went to a number of OzFest back in the day and they were always loads of fun. So hopefully it will come somewhere close because that would be a total blast. That would be awesome. How about at the Portnip Health Trust amphitheater? Sounds perfect.

Lots of room there for a show like OzFest. Hey, you know, I can dream. I can dream, okay.

I really could dream. I like fall asleep right now. Why don't I go to bed earlier? Why am I so dumb?

Oh, well. Okay, where to begin here? What is going on with air travel? Now, you've heard me complain about air travel before.

It can be annoying. But I'm looking at a seat here that how do I describe this? It has a basically a wedge shaped seat. And it looks like, you know, it would basically give you a wedgie if you sit down on it. Things got to be two, three inches tall right in the middle of the seat. What the article says is that it's for separating the seat for two really small people.

I mean, as if we're not already crammed into planes bad enough. What is going on here? Is it really for two small people? Or is it or they just like saying don't sit in this seat because it certainly wouldn't be comfortable. Huh. I am baffled on that one. Ugh.

Glad I don't have any flights planned anytime soon. Okay, what do we got here? British Columbia shout out to British Columbia. Ending the time change. Yeah, they're going to adopt year round daylight saving time. They're just going to set the clocks ahead this weekend. And then they're done. See how easy that is? Government. Come on, we all know they could do it.

They could do it in the blink of an eye. Oh, I am not looking forward. I forgot that was this weekend. Oh, I hate springing forward. I just want more sleep. No.

How dare you take an hour from me? Curse you government. So just got moved to Canada. There we go.

Heading to British Columbia. I'm out. All right. What else do we have here? Driver injured in rollover crash pulls gun on by standard who stopped to help.

That's nice. This was in Milton, Washington. So a guy got ejected from his car, was knocked unconscious in a rollover crash bystander stopped by and the guy wakes up and pulls out a pistol. So the good, you know, the good Samaritan, the bystander, he left. Like, I'm out, calls the cops and yeah, they showed up. Let's see. Was the guy intoxicated? Doesn't say, doesn't say, but they found the guy with injuries consistent with the crash and they said he might be booked.

Probably you can't just pull a gun on somebody. And again, you know, just trying to help out here. You know, if you wreck, you should let the bystanders help you. Geez. Well, some people are not so nice. All right.

Slow news day. I'm going to keep digging. Wish me some luck.

Was it only Tuesday? I hope it's going good. Hope it's going fantastic. Yay. Yay for Tuesday. Um, if you're visiting another country, you should probably not go out to karaoke night and then make fun of their national anthem.

Yeah. I don't think that would go well pretty much anywhere. Can you imagine you're hanging out at a local bar, someone gets up and does the national anthem for karaoke and just starts throwing in who knows what.

I would imagine some people would get upset. So this woman was actually arrested in the Dominican Republic after being accused of disrespecting the national anthem. It says she did it urban style like what hip hop? So she did got up and started wrapping it. Yeah.

They have article 37 of law 210-19, which defines acts of outrage against our national anthem. Don't like a song, huh? Keep it to yourself. Shut your trap. Don't tell anybody. You're going to have a bad time. And it's just kind of rude. So, you know, try to be a good tourist if you're visiting another country. I read another news article about basically I think everywhere in the Middle East, American authorities like telling people, just come home, come home right now.

So probably not the best time to be vacationing anyway. That's a big bite for a big orc. You're coming in here to bother me, huh?

Yep, you need something to do. I was watching a video of a McDonald's CEO awkwardly eating a burger. One of his own 12-year-old burgers. Yeah, this guy's not very good at eating burgers.

Speaker 2: Does it resemble yourself? When it makes more crumbs than there was food to start with?

Speaker 1: Now, that just depends on, you know, certain factors. Sometimes I might eat a little... If you're trying to eat? Sometimes I eat a little sloppier than others. Why eat their sauce on this meat?

Because it doesn't need it. Are you giving me a bunch of dry meat? It wasn't dry. Especially after...

It was perfect. It wasn't dry after I put a half a bottle of hot sauce on it. Why is this meat so hot? This meat is really hot. I'm getting kind of hungry now, thinking about pulled pork and burgers. Might have to go get myself a breakfast sandwich.

Speaker 2: I had me some pulled pork and brisket sandwich over the weekend and it was awesome. Pulled pork and brisket?

Speaker 1: You know what, when are you going to make some more of that chili that you made that one time?

Speaker 2: I did just a month or so ago. Didn't I bring some to you? It's been a while. I gave some to the boss man instead.

Speaker 1: The boss instead of me? Yep. Dude, because that chili was wild. How many different meats did you smoke and put in there?

Speaker 2: It's an over-his-top chili. So I started all the chili ingredients and whatever. A bunch of peppers and onion and garlic and whatever. And then you put it on the smoker and then put chuck roast, like a five pound chuck roast, over top of it until it pulls so all the drippings from the chuck roast fall in there. Nice. I take that off and then I did two pounds, like a two pound meatloaf.

Oh wow. And then I think two pounds of bacon and two giant kill bosses. Oh I know, it had tons of meat. And I think a couple chicken breasts. Wow.

Speaker 1: Dude, make it again. It was awesome. I'm sure it was easy to make. It took like 18 hours. Well, feel free to, if you've got nothing going on this afternoon, whip up some chili.

Speaker 2: You know? Go the China route and do some mystery meat.

Speaker 1: No.

Speaker 2: Since you know what's going on in my life this afternoon. Well, you know, back in the day they use all the animal parts, Jade. Jesus. You're with me now, permanently. You're a part of me. I can't let you again. Some people would consider that in bad taste.

Speaker 2: It depends on how slow you cook it.

Speaker 1: Oh man. Well, I'm getting hungry now. Oh, fill everybody on that another day. Like what am I missing here?

Speaker 2: Look at my Facebook later. No.

Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go. Look at Jade's Facebook this afternoon. And you'll see her bad taste joke. You'll get it. I hope Jess isn't listening right now. All right. I'm gonna go get breakfast sandwiches or something. All right. Got my appetite going.

Speaker 3: And now, last week tonight asks, how was this still a thing? This week, daylight saving time. How was this still a thing? If you're like most Americans, you've been groggy all day after losing an hour of sleep to daylight saving.

And as you struggle to remember how to change the clock on your f***ing microwave, you may have wondered, why is this happening? For years, conventional wisdom has been that it benefits one particular group.

Speaker 2: I know it started because of farmers. I'm almost sure of that.

Speaker 3: But that's not actually true.

Speaker 1: It gives them extra time to plant, extra time to harvest.

Speaker 3: It has nothing to do with farmers.

Speaker 4: I remember years ago hearing that it was for the farm people.

Speaker 3: The farm people want nothing to do with this, as they themselves will tell you.

Speaker 5: I really know farmer that I'm aware of that benefits from actually farm activities and daylight saving time.

Speaker 3: Of course, daylight saving doesn't benefit farmers. Cows don't care what time it is because they're cows. And cows are idiots. So if it's not for them, who is it for? The modern daylight saving was introduced during the First World War as a fuel saving measure by the Germans. That's right. You lost an hour of sleep this morning thanks to Kaiser Wilhelm. And while back then, daylight saving may indeed have saved fuel. In the modern era, energy consumption is a little more complicated. In fact, when Indiana adopted daylight saving in 2006, guess what happened?

Speaker 6: The data shows that daylight saving actually led to a 1% overall rise in residential electricity.

Speaker 3: Of course it did. Because switching on a lamp an hour later in the summer doesn't really matter when you're blasting an air conditioner and staying up all night psychotically scrolling through Instagrams of your ex's honeymoon to Morocco. But that's not to say daylight saving doesn't have any effects at all.

Speaker 4: Studies show there is an increase of car accidents and work-related injuries the week after the time change.

Speaker 3: That's right. What you lose in sleep, you gain in mortal danger. Despite all this, 70 countries around the world still observe daylight saving. And yet by going by local news reports, none of them could tell you why. From Australia...

Speaker 6: Well daylight saving is almost over for another year and with it comes the usual debate over its merits or lack thereof. To Italy... It's a pain in the ass, basically.

Speaker 3: To even the Germans, the people who started this whole mess. The time change for many people is ridiculous, whether it's an hour ahead or later is complete nonsense. Complete nonsense. And that's coming from a country that thinks this is a word and that this is dancing. So if it doesn't benefit our energy bill, our health, or our stupid, stupid cows, it has to make you wonder, daylight saving time, how is this still a thing?

Speaker 1: Great live band if you ever get a chance to catch them, make them suffer. There's gonna be some crowdsurfing though. Ben and myself from the advocates... Man, did we deal with a... It was like a waterfall of crowdsurfers at that show.

It was just ridiculous. And for whatever reason, people always come to me and Ben and want us to pick them up to crowdsurf. Here's a note, if you want to crowdsurf, you have to jump when the people lift you up. You can't just go dead weight, okay? You can't just collapse.

You gotta assist the people who are assisting you with getting lifted up to crowdsurf. Okay, yeah. Go one, two, three, go!

And you jump while they push you up, okay? Victor's Concert Tips. I've got many of them. Many of them. Some of them people like, some of them people don't. A lot of people hate crowdsurfers. I think it's just part of a show. A lot of people don't like getting bumped into at a show.

Sorry, that's something that's gonna happen to you. Here's another tip. You want to get up closer to the stage? Crowdsurfing shows are the easiest ones to get up closer to the stage. What you gotta do when a crowdsurf is coming, everybody around you is gonna put their arms up in the air. What you do is you duck down and you just mow through, alright? While they're not able to hold you off with their elbows, you just scoot on through. And the crowdsurfing generally disrupts the crowd as well.

So lots of little pockets open up that you can squeeze through. Again, some people hate that. I discovered depending on the type of show you're at, the crowd may react a little bit more hostile than others. If you're at a metal show, you're probably fine. If it's a mainstream rock show, fans might be a little bit more uptight.

So just be careful. Another good way to get yourself through a crowd if you want to just be rude about it, get a big guy like Peaches or my brother behind you, and you just have them push you forward as hard as they can while you use your arms to shove through people. Now that's the rude way to do it, but it is very effective. So just, you know, a few concert tips for you.

If they get you yelled at, don't blame me. And I've just learned from experience these things do work. So there you go.

That's what I got for you there. Well, where the heck has the morning gone? I ain't complaining because it just means I'm closer to being done for the day. I hope your morning's going by at a pretty good pace and that you're doing well. Now, what am I going to do to keep this pace up?

I don't know. Hopefully find some fun things to talk about for the noon hour of Madness and Mayhem, which will be coming up obviously at noon with Peaches. You know, yesterday's show was good. No reason to think that today's would be any different, but we'll give it our best shot.

All right. And before I go, I guess I want to let you know, I don't know if we have these type of events around here, but if you're having trouble finding a date, apparently wrestling speed dating is a thing. I guess it does look fun. What you, you just wrestle.

Yeah. Just roll around and, I don't know, talk to each other while wrestling. It's a long article here about speed dating, wrestling speed dating. And I don't need to find a date. Luckily, I'm just super lucky in that department.

Got a wonderful lady. But maybe you're, maybe you look at, maybe you need to start one of these groups. A wrestling speed dating group around here. Hmm.

They've got like, you know, rules how to wrestle nice, blah, blah, blah. I don't know. It does sound like the type of thing that could get out of hand, but I don't know. It's working out for people they're finding true love. So those of you out in that dating scene, if you're looking to try something new, maybe kick off one of those events somewhere.

I don't know where you can get to wrestling mats, but do some digging Facebook market. All right, people, I'm going to leave now. And I'm going to leave you with president destroy me.

I'll talk to you soon. Thank you again for tuning in to the Victor Will Show. This program is a production of Riverbend Media Group. To contact the show or for more information, hit us up at riverbendmediagroup.com.
