The Viktor Wilt Show

It is Friday. Yeah. Can you tell how excited I am? I I'm still waking up. Otherwise, I might have gave it a nice loud, yeah.

Gotta wait for the coffee to kick in, I guess. So we'll see how it goes throughout the program here. What's up? How's your morning been? Mine's been alright so far.

And I woke up, and I wanted to go back to bed, so it was a typical morning. So I guess it's going pretty good. Let's see here. Not going so well for this couple here I was reading about online. They were about to be married, and the husband went out on a bachelor party excursion.

Now they had $10,000 saved up for their wedding and their honeymoon and all that, but apparently, he blew all $10 during the bachelor party celebration. Yeah. 10 g's. Now I've been out of town before and blown some cash, but 10 g's is a lot of money. So then when they were trying to figure out what they were going to do so they could still have their wedding, he's like, well, why don't you just cancel your bachelorette party?

And she got all that. Like, no. You can go out and blow $10? I'm certainly gonna have my party. I I don't think these folks are gonna end up getting married.

I think that's a pretty good red flag. Yeah. Your partner goes out and blows all of your savings partying with their friends right before you need to dump a bunch of money on a on a wedding, probably might be a good time to reconsider things. Nothing like a relationship drama. Anyway, hope you've got someone good in your life.

It doesn't pull that kind of crap. So, anyhow, keep digging through content here. Find you know, speaking of crap, crap to talk about with you. Alright? We'll see what I find as the program goes along.

And today, we officially launch Kay Bear 1 01's Rockin' Halloween, powered or haunted by No Limit Guitar Company. Well, it looks like Oregon is fighting back. Yeah. Must be some folks over there upset that some people want Idaho to consume half of the state and take over all of Eastern Oregon because they've come for the potato. I see you, Oregon.

I see what you're doing here. Starting a a turf war. Oregon naming the potato their official state vegetable. How dare they? How dare they?

It was already our state vegetable. Come on. Come on, Oregon. You've gotta have many other options. When I posted this article on Facebook, many people pointed out other options.

Oregon, the devil's lettuce for your official state vegetable? Now if you're not familiar with, the company OR Ida, the potato company, you know, fries, French fries, tater tots, that does stand for Oregon, Idaho. They do grow a lot of potatoes there, but still, I just think it's wrong for anybody else to try to try to claim that. We don't have a lot to claim here in Idaho. How dare you try to take away our potato?

So, anyhow, we're still the o g's of states known for potatoes. You'll never gonna be us, Oregon. Funny. Every Idaho news source sharing this story. So, yeah, next time you're in Oregon, you see anything about potatoes, you gotta strike back.

I I don't know how. What what can we take from Oregon? What what do they got? I don't know. Anyway, just letting you know.

They're they're trying to battle us here, so stand your ground. Hey. What's up? It's Victor Wilt coming at you live on morning show host day. That's right.

A day in celebration of me. Jade, are you listening? Any of the, bosses listening? Josh and us Josh and us. Josh and I.

Josh and Chantel and I, we want some kind of a treat. We want cake. Morning show host day. Alright. There's a holiday for everything.

The article's all, these hosts work hard to make our mornings enjoyable, blending witty conversations, interviews, and much more. They truly deserve a day of recognition for their efforts to bring joy and information to our daily routines. That's what I do. Right? That's right.

You're welcome. Celebrate my charm and energy. Sorry. I'm just reading through this thing here. Anyway, I'm sure there's a holiday for you as well.

You just gotta read the stupid holidays of the day every day. There's usually, like, 20 for every day, so I guarantee you could find one that, fits you. Just gotta keep your eyes open. I had no idea it was morning show host day till Josh from Classy popped over and told me. But, yeah, it's it's nice to have it on a Friday.

Shoulda got the day off. Yeah. You wanna truly give a morning show host a treat on morning show host stay? You give them a day off so they can sleep in. Sometimes I wonder what's wrong with me.

Come on. You know better, Victor. What are you doing? I don't know. I started a bit of, Facebook trolling yesterday, trolling in a friendly way.

You know, we've got a a lot of political posts floating around out there, and I know it doesn't really do any good. But I still, last night, felt the need to chime in on a few of them. And, boy, boy, do people get frustrated. It was fun. It was fun.

I would love to, like, just throw out my election predictions on air. You know? I I'm not gonna because apparently throwing out those predictions makes people crazy. I did that in a a couple comments. But, you know, back a number of elections ago, you know, I I bet one of my fellow radio DJs you're not supposed to bet on the election.

I don't think you can do it at a casino, but, I bet somebody how the election was gonna go. They're they're no longer a DJ here in the building, but I made a bet with them for $5 that this is how it was gonna go. And I won, and they never gave me the $5 So if anybody out there wants to bet money on it, I won't tell anybody we bet money on it, but, I'd be willing to put money on the table, on this one just based on all of the research I've done. Yeah. Yeah.

You can't just believe what you see when it comes to polls. Okay. Everybody should know that from the last few elections. The polls didn't mean anything. You know, most polling is done by calling landline telephones.

Who has those? Not very many people. I don't think that polling is an accurate representation of the entire country. We polled 600 people, and here's what we got. Yeah.

Alright. You know, maybe pull a 100000 people. Then I'll take a little bit closer look at the results. But anyway, I'm I'm gonna try to avoid more trolling online, but it it's kind of fun. Kind of fun.

I haven't done that in a while. And, again, I did it very, very nicely. No one, like, you know, got too crazy with me. Just just a few people, but not too crazy. Not to where I was like, jeez.

Alright. Time to end this because somebody's getting too hostile. But, you know, it's good good to see people passionate about things even if I'm right and they're wrong. Anyway, Yeah. If if anybody wants to, make some bets, you let me know.

Alright. I got at least $5 coming my way here in, like, 6 weeks. Listen, our band called me up. He's willing to take take me on with a $5 bet on the presidential election. I'm just playing government, and we're we're not really betting on the election.

I don't I don't want any problems here. Alright. What what's going on in the world aside from me trying to make $5? I need that fiver. You know?

Things are expensive. Need the $5. Let's see here. A story in the Wall Street Journal examined the power of keeping your mouth shut. Oh, maybe I shouldn't say anything, but you can't exercise the power of keeping your mouth shut when this is your job, when this is what you do.

Let's see. People who are able to be comfortable in silence often learn more and are also more likely to get what they want in negotiations. You can't negotiate if you don't say anything. Alright. In social settings, are you more likely to be driving the conversation or letting others talk?

I tend to be a yapper. That's for sure. Do you wish you were better at talking? Yes. You hear me flub.

You hear me fall on my face every day. I do wish I was better at talking. I think I'm a good listener, though. I'm I do think I'm a pretty good listener. You know?

I would I was able to engage in political discussions online with people without it turning into a, you know, any kind of really crazy battle. What what what does this have to do with anything here? You're confronted with the situation that involves law enforcement officials. Say nothing. Right?

I got a law enforcement official coming in here in about an hour and 45 minutes. I gotta say something to him. Have you ever gotten in trouble because you talk too much? Yes. All throughout school.

Probably not a big surprise. My report cards throughout elementary school always, you know, get that little check mark for talking in class. That, again, should not be a surprise whatsoever considering what I do for work. Alright. Do you actually listen to others talking?

Yes. Yes. I do. I I think. Sometimes the ADD brain, you know, gets me a little bit off track when I'm trying to listen, but for the most part, I pay pretty good attention.

So again, I guess this article is just telling people shut up and listen, which I think I'm pretty good at doing. I I think. Okay. I know this break sucked, but, you know, they can't all be winners. I'll find something better for the next one.

I was just winging that. I wasn't prepared. I'm sorry. Hey. It's Friday, which means coming up in about an hour and a half, we're gonna do some traffic school powered by the advocates.

You should join the show today. Ever had a, question about the law and gone. I can't get correct information because I'm talking with people online and they're all throwing out different answers. Well, call me and lieutenant Crane. We'll give you the truth.

We'll lay down facts with traffic school powered by the advocates at about 8:45 today. Think of some questions. You got plenty of time to figure that out. Then you just call us, do it live at 208-535-1015. Simple as that.

Should be loads of fun, but it's only fun if you participate. So maybe you've never called into it before. Make today your first time. Again, 8:45, about an hour and a half from now. Traffic school powered by the advocates.

I really hope that you will join us because it's so fun. Such a good time every Friday morning. And, today also day 1 of Kay Bear 1 01's rock and Halloween haunted by no limit guitar company. Let's do some Dax rigs. Feeling sad.

I got called a loser online. Jeez, people. I miss the days when you could have a nice, healthy discussion about something without personal attacks coming in. I mean, I asked for it. I was doing a little bit of a poking at the bear, you know, dove into a little bit of a political discussion and I keep it nice and tame.

I just go, okay, well, what about this? No attacks, No attacks. No, you know, I don't know what I'm looking to say here. No no attacks. Alright?

Just a simple discussion, but it it's always gotta go, you loser. Wrong lie. Alright. Sorry, buddy. Sorry about that.

I haven't got called a loser in a while. Well, it happens every now and again. Okay. Anyway, I'm gonna dig up some content to talk about that's not related to that. I just stumbled across a pretty funny headline, and I I honestly didn't know what to think till I dove into the article.

Like, this is this is weird. Pennsylvania man charged after attacking giant customers with salsa jars. I'm like, okay. Somebody hanging out at the grocery store and they see peaches, pick up that paste picante, just chuck it at them. No.

There's apparently a store in Pennsylvania called Giant. That's all it's called, Giant. It's a great headline, though. Pennsylvania man charged after attacking giant customers with salsa jars. Who would win in the battle?

Peaches versus a nice jar of of your favorite mango habanero. Don't throw salsa at peaches. Okay? Even though he's big, it'll still hurt. K?

Don't throw things at people. It's not nice. Alright. Anyway, if I ever make it out to Pennsylvania, I'll have to swing by Giant and, take a selfie because it's you know, any anything relating to, big things, giants, tall people, I I know peaches would appreciate the photo. And a picture of me in front of a sign that says giant.

Well, you know, as far as height, I don't know. I am I am getting kinda round. Freak news powered by Greasemonkey Voted Idaho's best oil change. Here we go. Alright.

Video shows man's close encounter with Bull Moose in Maine before it charges at him. This video is pretty terrifying here. Got this guy out in the woods. He was apparently out setting up some game cameras. And, all of a sudden, he hears the bellowing sound of a cow moose in heat.

She was surrounded by 3 bulls competing for attention. When these animals are in the rut, you do not wanna be around. And this guy was. So one of them heard this guy, walks up to him. So he pulls his phone out and starts recording.

It's like 3 feet away from him. Alright? And watching this video, this moose has the crazy eyes going on. Like, this is a a giant beast. And the look in its eyes, absolutely horrifying.

So, you know, the guy tries to tell it, that's that's close enough. Come on. Get on out of here. Moose don't listen very well. So it charged him.

Thankfully, the guy ended up being okay. He just started, screaming and yelling, laid on the ground. It was like, help. Go away. Help.

And, it did. What are you supposed to do if you encounter a moose? What to do if a moose is going to charge you? Oh, man. That's a nightmare fuel.

Find a big tree and hide behind it. I guess moose can't corner that well. So you just sit there, like, in a cartoon and just keep going around the tree. Jeez. Well, anyway, look at the guy's fine.

Just be aware if you're out in the woods. There are wild beasts out there. There are bears. There's giant cats that could rip you to pieces. At bare minimum, pack some bear spray.

Bare minimum, if you're going to be out hiking. Jeez. Hey, this is pretty cool. This was in Everett, Washington. Somebody put up an art installation that basically looks like a crosswalk, but when you push the button, up on the sign that would say, you know, walk, a positive affirmation will pop pop up.

They call it the affirmation station. So, you know, a message like, hey. You're doing a great job. Keep it up. Or you're important.

You're strong. You're awesome. I think every every city should put these in. You'd be amazed. You just see a positive message like that, It's going to make your day.

So I think we should put these up in downtown Pocatello, Idaho falls, Rexburg, just to spread a little bit of cheer because, you know, people are kinda grumpy lately. I mean, jeez, I got called a loser online this morning. Seemed a little unnecessary to me, but, you know, people are frustrated. Maybe maybe that person needs to push the, affirmation button. Yeah.

Let's let's install these affirmation stations. Alright. What else do we we got somebody calling. Hang on. Caller, you are live on the show.

Please keep that in mind. Who's this? This is Brandon. Brandon, what's up, man? Hey.

I just, I heard your story on freak news about the bull moose. Mhmm. And, it sparked a a a memory. When when I was a kid, family took a trip to, Mammoth Hot Springs in, Yellowstone. Yeah.

It was during, it was it was during rut for the elk. And if you've ever been to Mammoth Hot Springs, during rut, they are everywhere. You know, they're in between the buildings, crossing roads, and it's you you generally you usually don't get out of your vehicle unless you have to, like, you need to get into your hotel or or you've gotta get food or whatever. But, I remember we were climbing in the vehicle and there, my my dad saw a guy, walking across the street to go take pictures of the elk up close and personal. And, my dad was like, oh, okay.

Hang on. And he closed the door and he yelled after the guy and guy ignored him or didn't hear him. And my dad trotted over there and was hiding around the corner from where these elk were. This guy is over there. He's he's this guy is, like, 10 feet away from these elk taking pictures.

And a couple of the male turned and they saw him. 1 ignored him, the other one didn't. Same thing. Crazy eyes and just came after this this guy. The guy had to be 70 years old.

Oh, no. He's he's scrambled. And if again, if you've ever been to, Mammoth Hot Springs, there there are old, barracks buildings. This is where this is at. Old barracks buildings.

And, he scrambled up in into, the front door area of one of these barracks buildings and the elk's, antlers were just wide enough that it caught on the, the post for the for the, awning that was over this front porch area. And so this guy is huddled up against the the building and this elk is just trying to get antlers in there to get at him, and it just couldn't quite get in there. It was a good 5 minutes. This elk just going after the 70 year old guy. My dad comes trotting back over and you see 70 year old guy come around the corner after that 5 minutes, and and, he's shaking and and white as a sheet.

My dad's laughing. And, he gets he gets in the car and he's like, he's fine, and he told us exactly what happened. And, you you talking about that boneless, it just reminded me. It was one of the funniest, scariest, surprising things that I that I remember, taking trips to to Yellowstone as a kid. And people don't they they don't think when it comes to wildlife in Yellowstone.

No. And it just every every time we're there, it makes me angry. We stopped going for a little while because it was just it was the stupidity and they just don't understand that these are wild animals that will kill you. Yeah. I've seen some pretty wild videos from Mammoth of elk attacking cars and things like that.

Mhmm. And you would think with year after year after year, all of these stories about animals attacking people in Yellowstone, people would learn like, the story we just did, the guy, he just got caught in a bad situation, but Yellowstone, man, people are just so stupid there. It's it's mind blowing how dumb some of these people are. You know, the, the stop on the side of the road to take pictures of, of, mama bear and her cubs. They're only, you know, 20 yards away.

It's like, Hey guys, that's a bad idea. Yeah. There was a story the other day about a whole crowd in Yellowstone surrounding a grizzly bear. So it couldn't cross the street. Oh man.

I didn't even see that one. Oh my gosh. That's ridiculous. Dude, I mean, I Oh, man. When I talked about the story, I mentioned, you know, I've seen a grizzly bear in Yellowstone ripping a deer apart, and it was, you know, scary.

Yeah. So these people, man, they're they're just oblivious. Thankfully, nobody got hurt in that situation with the bear, you know, earlier this week, but, man, people people need to pull the heads out. Yeah. That's exactly who can say that.

Well, appreciate anybody listening, just remember, they're wild animals. Don't go near them. Take pictures from your vehicle. You're safe there for the most part. For the most part.

But, appreciate the call today, man. Hope you have a great day. Yeah. Of course. You too.

Peace. Peace. Watch out for bears, peaches, and moose. I was thinking of going to Yellowstone at some point and just going up to a cub and kicking it. Oh, yep.

That'll it'll end well, peaches. It'll end great. I can't believe you still haven't been to Yellowstone yet. I can't believe it either. I can't believe it's not butter.

Cares? I know. What are you doing, bro? Go to Yellowstone. Have you been to Yosemite?

Have I been to Yosemite? No. I can't believe you've been you haven't been there. What's wrong with you? I don't live feels?

I don't live an hour and a half from it. An hour and a half's too long. I don't care. Oh, gee. I'm gonna go over there and deal with tourists.

Right now is the perfect time to go. Tourist season's over. You just got, people potentially getting eaten by bears. You know what? Give me the money for the gas.

I'll go. I don't got money for my own gas. Well, then shut up. You shut up. You you get you get Freak news powered by Greasemonkey.

What's up, peaches? Oh, nothing. Been checking out the new music, that was released today. Anything good? New plotting you.

I saw that was out. New daughtry called the darn. Saw that. It peaches. He's talking about, something that would, block a river.

Yeah. There's no n at the end of that word. You know what? I'm gonna say what I wanna say. So when we start playing it, darn.

Darn daughtry. There's also new extermination dismemberment. Oh. That's fun. Yeah.

I missed out on that one as well. I think it's, slaughterer chainsaw is the name of the song. Very nice. Very nice. I saw there's new well, some kind of new live video from, Bring Me the Horizon, but not actual new music.

Yeah. What's more upsetting? The, band saying they have a big announcement coming this time, this date, and they announce a merch drop or they announce a live album? Which one would you hate more? Oh, Probably the merch drop.

At least the live album is, like, I don't know, available to all for a reasonable price. Because I know Nickelback was announcing something big September 25th. I looked at it. Is it a merch drop? It's a it's a live album.

One song features Bailey Zimmerman. Another song features a different artist. It's Yeah. I thought for sure they were gonna be dropping new music. No.

Wow. Didn't they just drop an album last year? Or 2 years ago? Yeah. Oh, yeah.

I guess they did. I guess they did. It was that, that, woah, man. That's it. They had the, you know, the we're riding in the van, man.

Hippie van. Bunch of pot songs. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

I forgot about that album. Yeah. It's always unfortunate when there's a big exciting announcement coming, and then it ends up being, oh, okay. Alright. New t shirts available for $50 a piece.

What else is there? There's a there's a let's see here. I I didn't see anything that really got me personally, like, excited. Oh, new new Black Daily Murder album dropped? Yeah.

I knew I knew that album was out. But as far as new singles, it was kind of, kinda weak for a Friday. I was, oh, it looks like Trey U has covered Mary Jane's Last Dance. Yeah. I saw right.

I listened to that this morning. It's very slow. Very slow. Alright. Did did they do a good job?

It doesn't sound like Tom Petty. Well, I I just It just sounds like a Trey oop. Alright. All Good Things is back on the scene. Looks like they dropped a new single.

Have to check that out. That could potentially be good for air. But yeah. I feel like All Good Things is one of those bands, like, hey, we're only good for radio. No one actually listens to us.

Like pop people. Oh my goodness. Yeah. I I'm wondering if right now there were supposed to be new songs dropping, but because Linkin Park has pretty much taken over, bands have pushed releases back. That you know?

Oh, yeah. Nick Nocturnal just released his cover of the emptiness machine. It's a crap. Why would you wanna do that? I bet it'll get some some plays off of it.

You know, if you do Lincoln Park content right now, it works out pretty good. Look at my YouTube videos. Well, right now, there are a lot of, people on Reddit talking about how, like, oh, I I saw Lincoln Park announced a show in, Dallas with, Bad Omens. Mhmm. And these people are from Dallas not knowing who Bad Omens is.

So they they're looking at Bad Omens like their songs and they're What? They're joining the Bad Omens subreddit going, hey, I'm a new fan here. What songs would you recommend? And people are saying dethroned, dethroned, dethroned, dethroned, just a really heavy one. Here you go.

Listen to these. Artificial suicide. Yeah. That well, Dallas has a terrible rock station, so I'm not surprised that people haven't been exposed to bad omens there. They they just made their return, and it they brought it back like what we looked at it.

Remember? Oh, that's right. It was called, like, the monster? The the the eagle. The the eagle one.

There was one that we listened to that was called, like, the beast or something. Yeah. That that was a different one. But, they the eagle was doing, like, one new song an hour or something like that. Right.

But it was, like, not really new. It was more so, like, Yeah. Songs that went out, like, 6 months ago. Here's Hinder. Yeah.

Yeah. Something like that. So I doubt that, you know, maybe aside from just pretend, they're probably not hearing any bad omens on, that radio station. It was very weird to see Better Lovers put out that new track and then cut out a minute and a half of it. Yeah.

That was that was a weird thing. I the song was probably more than 4 minutes long. It was. It was 4 and a half minutes. 4 and a half minutes is just too long.

And they cut it down to 3:10. Radio songs can't be longer than 3 and a half minutes. Otherwise, the listeners will just give up. And that's why I talked about it on the air yesterday. I was like, I wonder why they chopped off part of the intro here and an even slower part of the song in the middle.

They just got right to the point. Yeah. No. You can't have any kind of, you know, dynamics and flow to a song. Listeners just wanna be pummeled with relentless vocals.

Sure. Yeah. Yeah. That's common radio belief that, is not true. Yeah.

As we've proven time and time again here. So anyhow, look at that. Coming up after the break, another Halloween ish track. Thanks to our friends at No Limit Guitar Company celebrating their 6th anniversary. You should go buy some stuff from them.

We're gonna be doing some pretty cool things with No Limit this month. Stay tuned. Thank you again for tuning in to the Victor Wilt Show. This program's a production of river. This program's a production of river.
