#0138 - TikTok, Horse Poop, and Kids Named "Dagger"
Alright. Morning. Welcome to the Viktor Wilt Show or good afternoon or good evening, depending on when you're listening to this since it is available on demand. Thank you for listening however you do, and, happy Monday. Hope you had a good weekend.
Hope it, you know, didn't go by too quickly. Mine, I guess I shouldn't complain. I had a good weekend. Alright? No cats running away, stuck out in the cold, no me freaking out.
No. Just kinda kicked back and watched a variety of really good programming over the weekend. I, you know, was not affected by the great calamity that overtook, you know, the entire United States over the weekend. You know what I'm talking about. You know, tragedy averted.
Right? TikTok is back. Yep. I did take a peek at Facebook. What was it yesterday?
Maybe it was Saturday. I don't remember. But it was during the outage. Yeah. And boy, my entire Facebook feed.
Oh, we're up. I I don't know. It's like how many people are paying attention to the news. They said this was gonna happen all last week. Well, anyway, I I guess there's a temporary extension or something.
You know, they threw out the appeal to president Trump, like, come on. Only you can save us. And he's like, okay. I I swear I will. And, so now in a bit of a holding pattern, still needing to, you know, meet the demands of congress as far as, you know, of all all of this, threat to, American security goes with access to your data, blah blah blah, will they get it fixed?
I don't know. I honestly don't know because they were supposed to have worked on this for, what, how many years now? Anyway, I hope they can figure out a way to keep tick TikTok around. It entertains people and makes people happy. So, I mean, from a user standpoint, I will say that it's pretty rare I fire up TikTok and just get frustrated.
It's not like Facebook. You know? So it is a little bit, cheerier content. Anyway, that was pretty much the news of the weekend. Right?
Anything else happen? You always kinda wonder. Alright. With with everyone talking about TikTok, what else is going on behind the scenes? I don't know.
I haven't dug into the news yet to find out. Because that's what everybody says, right, with the tinfoil hats? They're distracting us because, blah blah blah blah blah. Well, I'll find out. I'll find Well, I'll find out.
I'll find out what's going on around here. But more than anything, I just hope we all make it through Monday nice and quickly because, I'm ready to be back home. I know I say that every Monday morning. Just wanna let you know I'm in the same boat as you. Not wanting to be up and at them right now, but we'll get through it together.
Alright? Anyway, follow me on TikTok, Victor Wilt. I haven't put up any videos in a little bit, but I probably should. It's generally cat videos. Just a heads up.
Alright. Speaking of animals. Here. Beartooth. Pearl Jam on the Victor Welt Show.
Hello. Welcome, and good morning. Hope you're alright. I hope you're enjoying a day off. I mean, I don't know why you'd be listening to me on your day off at this hour, but I appreciate it if you are.
A lot of folks getting today off. This is not a prerecorded chill. I am here today, Martin Luther King day. Enjoy your day off if you have one. Was looking at a list of days that should be federal holidays but are not.
I mean, the more the merrier. Right? If they get us out of work. And I do think they need to shift all holidays to always being on, like, Mondays or Fridays so that we get that extended weekend. You know, those of us who work the Monday through Friday.
That'd be fantastic. Let's see. What do we got here? Election day. Isn't that kind of a no brainer for a national holiday?
The day of the presidential election. To me, kinda suspicious that it isn't really because the only people who for sure got the day off, all those old people who are retired. Young people, they're busy. They don't want the young people getting out to vote, do they? Nah.
Anyway, to me, it would make complete sense for that to be a national holiday. But no matter what the holiday is, there's still going to be people who have to work. You know, Christmas, gas stations are open. Shout out to those of you who have to work on holidays like Christmas. Me?
4th July, always out working at Riverfest. It's just how it goes. Let's see here. Someday in spring, we have no holidays during the nicest part of the year. That depends when your spring is.
If we wanted a nice spring holiday, we'd have to wait till, like, maybe the end of May around here. Because we got Easter, but that's on a Sunday. So, you know, we need a weekday off. You know? Can we can we move Easter?
I guess you can't really move Easter to another day of the week. It's in the name. Easter Sunday. We could move Thanksgiving to Friday. Alright.
Anyway, what else here? Just Monday in general? I'm down. Every Monday, federal holiday. That sounds great to me.
Sounds fantastic. Alright. And, again, if you're a Reddit user, please just see if other people have already said the same thing you are planning on saying and give them an upvote. You don't need to post the same thing over and over because we do have tons of, election day, election day, election day. Monday after the Super Bowl?
I mean, I'm down. Sure. There's better days but, sure, I'm down for any new holiday that gets me out of work. If I can hang out at my house, much as I like my job, hanging out at my house, I like it better. Alright?
I've I've got a more comfortable chair there. It's very relaxing. Oh, yeah. And no work. Well, I choose to do no work there.
Can't choose to do no work here. Bosses won't like it. Anyway, good morning. Hope the day is moving at a decent pace for you. I'm hanging out here doing it live.
So if you wanna get a hold of me, you can always call me at 208-535-1015. And right now, you should listen to this thing that'll let you know how to win some tickets to see disturbed. Alright. We got some school closures in the area. If you wanna keep up to date on these, hit up our friends down the hall, eastidahonews.com.
Alright. Quickly run through these here. Alturas International and Alturas Preparatory Academies, Blackfoot Charter, Blackfoot School District 55, Clark County District 161, Fremont 2 15, Idaho Science and Technology Charter School, Snake River Montessori School, and Teton District 401. Also, 2 hour delayed start at west Jefferson school district 253. It's very cold outside.
So, these have been updating as I've been here so far this morning. Might wanna keep, keep an eye on that page at eastidahonews.com. Ugh. Nasty out there. Nasty.
I mean, out dealing with the snow yesterday morning, I was not a big fan and there wasn't like that much snow but it was just frigid. You know, that that kind of air that just hits you and oh. Even if you're bundled up, I know it could be worse. Could be worse. Could live in Minneapolis, you know, where a lot of my family is.
Really sucks there. Alright. Felt is going on around here. If you didn't hear that little promo we played a few minutes ago, we are giving away tickets to disturb 3 days grace and 7 dust. You got all week to sign up, but, you know, what if you forget?
You should probably just get on it right now. Fire up the Kay Bear app, the all tap, or the Cannonball app, or all 3 of them and enter once in each. And you might win yourself some tickets to the Sickness 25th anniversary tour hitting up the Ford Idaho Center Arena in Nampa on February 25th. So nothing beats free. Disturb doing 2 sets that night.
I believe the first live appearance with 3 days grace with 2 vocalists, and then he got 7 Dust who always just destroys. So this is gonna be a great show. Again, if you want to enter, fire up any of our apps, K Bear alt or Cannonball, and go ahead and enter to win. You got till Friday, so get on it. Right.
Here's fame on fire. It's the Victor Wilt Show. Alright. Taking a look at topics that avoid, any kind of controversy today. Well, maybe.
This could end up aggravating somebody. What do I know? I never know when I'm gonna aggravate somebody. Well, okay. Sometimes I know.
Hopefully, we're safe on this one. Things a lot of peep people refuse to do even though they are easy. Alright. It may seem a little bit late to set a new year's resolution, but it's not. You can do it in the middle of the year.
Alright? Might not wanna call it a new year's resolution, but it's always fine. A fine time to try and change yourself. Alright. Let's see how many of these things I do.
Things people refuse to do even though they are easy. Using turn signals. Why is that so hard for a lot of people? Well, it's a good question. Please use them.
Alright? For the benefit of other drivers so they know where you're going. Yeah. That that is one that's super easy. Like, you literally slightly move your hand.
Okay. Not litter. Yeah. It's pretty easy to not litter. It's easier to not litter than to litter.
Really? You got some garbage? You're driving down the road? Throw it on the floor. Clean it up later.
Yeah. Try to keep, you know, the environment looking kind of nice. And that'd be great. Driving down the road, not a bunch of trash all over the side of the freeway. Return your cart.
Now okay. Depending on your situation. Let's say you got a a broken leg. It's gonna be, you know, maybe a little difficult, but still just return the cart or ask somebody to help you. I bet somebody would.
If you are dealing with some kind of injury. Hey. You know, could you help me put this card away? I'd really appreciate it. It's better than just leaving it sitting there.
You know, just ask for help. People are generally friendly and willing to help, especially around here. Alright? Despite what you might read on Facebook, in person, people are very friendly around here. Social media does not reflect the reality of our world.
K? Let's see here. Cover your mouth when coughing. Please. Play okay.
I've only got so much time off available, and nothing aggravates me more than having to use it because I got sick because somebody's, you know, in my vicinity hacking. Keep that away from me and everybody else. You know, just cough into your into your sleeve or something And wash your hands. We talked about that last week. Why is that hard to do?
Why why are people averse to washing their hands? Yeah. You should wash your hands. K. If if it's one of those things that you just don't think about, your hands are probably dirty.
Wash those filthy hands. Alright. Let's see here. Being polite. Yeah.
It. Well, I would imagine there are some people who it is difficult to be polite. I've met some people that are they're just kinda in general jerks. I don't know. To me, it is easier and less stressful to be polite than to be rude.
Being rude works you up a little bit. You know? Gets the adrenaline going. You're just being nice. It's pretty mellow.
Wear a seat belt? Yeah. I highly recommend that as well and it's super easy. You jump in. You just, buckle it.
You know, it's a little bit more difficult than using a turn signal, but not by much. And then if you get in an accident, you might, you know, end up in better shape. I shouldn't even say might. You're very likely going to be in way better shape after an accident if wearing a seat belt than if not. Plus, it's a law.
You know? What? You you wanna get hassled by lieutenant Crane and friends? Don't wear a seat belt then. They don't like that.
Let's see. What else do we got here? Something that's easy to do, but a lot of people refuse. Not speaking with such confidence on topics they have no education in. Somebody here has been hanging out on Facebook.
I saw on Youtube blah blah blah blah blah. My buddy down the road, he told me he read on a forum blah blah blah. Yeah. There's a lot of that going on. There is a ton of that going on.
Lot of experts in many fields. Currently, I've seen a lot of firefighting experts. It's like I don't see any of your Facebook profile works at fire chief. So perhaps breaking down exactly how fires should be fought from your couch, maybe you shouldn't. Oh, cleaning up dog poo while you're walking on trails.
Yay. Oh, okay. But I'm gonna I'm gonna take this a step further. K? The best trail in East Idaho is the Palisades Creek Trail, as far as I'm aware.
If you know one that's more amazing, please let me know. But as far as I know, Palisades Creek Trail is where it's at. Now a lot of people bring their dogs on this trail, and they don't pick up their dog crap, and that's annoying. But what about horses? Yeah.
Yeah. Let's talk about horses on the trail. I think people who are taking horses up that trail or any trail where people walk should have to have giant garbage bags to pick up those horse pies. Seriously. If people are gonna get on everybody's case about their dogs, what about do you know the difference in size between horse dookie and dog waist.
Very, very different. K? I don't like it in the treads of my shoes so there we go. I'm taking it a big leap further. If you are riding your horse on a trail, clean up there, Dookie.
That's right. And I will say thank you because that's the next thing that, popped up on this list that's apparently hard for people to do. Say thank you. If you clean up your animal's crap, I will say thank you. K?
Alright. We'll be back in a minute. I'd take rain right now over more snow. Thankfully, I guess it's gonna be too cold to snow for the next foreseeable future. The next foreseeable future.
Forgive me. It's Monday. Yeah. I don't ever talk perfect to begin with. But, yeah, frigid out there.
Lots of school closures. Well, a decent number. Check out eastidahonews.com. See if we've got any new ones real quick here. I don't know.
I guess we could knock them down again here real quick. Alturas International Academy, Alturas Preparatory Academy, Blackfoot Charter, Blackfoot School District 55, Clark County 161, Fremont 2 15, Idaho Falls School District, 91 staff development activities. I don't know exactly what that means. That's again all it says here, Idaho Falls School District, 91 staff development activities. Doesn't say, you know, like, the entire district.
So, you know, look into that because I don't know, again, exactly what that means. The Idaho Science and Technology Charter School, Snake River Montessori School, and Teton School District 401 with, again, a 2 hour delayed start at West Jefferson School District 253 because it's cold. It's cold out there, and it sucks. Great day to sit inside, take the day off if you can, and just watch some movies. You wanna watch something good?
I finally got around to watching the substance last night. Okay. I didn't watch every second of it. I'll I'll admit. I pulled a shameful old man thing, sitting there with my daughter, watching the movie.
Got my, lady on the phone. Next thing I know, I'm just chainsaw snoring. I just fell asleep in my recliner. It's really hard to, sometimes, as an adult my age on the weekend, after, you know, getting out, doing the snow blower thing, hitting my neighbor's driveway, my driveway, getting out and shoveling off the back deck in the snow, take a trip to Blackfoot to pick up the daughter, getting some chores done around the house, sit in that recliner. Let's watch a movie.
I fell asleep in the middle of it. I didn't miss very much though. And wow. I gotta say, the substance did not disappoint. The last, I don't know, 45 minutes of that movie, crazy.
Completely crazy. I really liked it. I don't know if it's for everybody, but I watched a number of movies recently that maybe they're not for everybody, but they they were great. I mean, the substance has been pretty universally, acclaimed. But I watched the joker part 2, and I thought it was really good.
I was very happy with that movie. I thought it had a fine ending. Yeah. It it was good. It was good.
What else did I watch over the weekend? Finished up American primeval, which is a really good western on Netflix. That was pretty good. Watched 10 Cloverfield Lane, which is not a new movie, but it was really good too. A really good horror movie.
I had a pretty enjoyable weekend of relaxing watching TV. It's a lot easier to enjoy my entertainment when the, you know, cat's not missing. But, tracking her everywhere she goes now. Thank you to, Peaches for recommending looking into the Apple AirTag. Got one of those for Lucy, and it works pretty good.
So now I'm gonna have to get one for Koopa as well. That was my weekend. Alright? Watch the substance, k, unless you're not into horror. And it definitely gets, I I guess we could say gory.
If you're not into gore, you might not like it. To me, I thought it was great. It kinda reminded me of this video game I played. What was that game called? Me and my stupid memory.
Anyway, it was a cool, side scroller puzzle game, and the ending of that game definitely reminded me of the ending of the substance. Good stuff. Alright. Let's do some let's do some 10 years. Gojira.
Sure I said that wrong, but I don't know how to speak French. Anyway, what's happening? It's the Victor World Show currently working on digging up some freak news, which we'll get into here in just a few minutes. Before that, I just had to bring up something that I thought was amusing over the weekend. You know, every once in a while, I'll see a thread pop up, local news where people are losing their minds.
And I saw one of these posts over the weekend. I'm not gonna get into the content of it, but all I did was jump in and point out, like, hey. Alright. It always makes me laugh when I see every single person in the comments losing their minds about something. Just wanna remind you all, you voted these people in.
Alright? Yeah. Because it happens over and over again. And it's like, well, do you remember before the election when people are running for office, you could, like, find out what their platform is? You know, you could take a look at their voting history and things like that, and you know, what they say they're gonna do.
Maybe if they say they're gonna do something, you should just believe them. And without fail, you know, this always makes somebody mad. And they say, well, if you don't like Idaho, why don't you get out? I'm like, hey. What?
Settle down. I never said I didn't like Idaho. I had some guy accuse me of, talking about how great Idaho is all the time. Talking about politicians every once in a while, those are people. Those are not Idaho.
K? And as someone who was born and raised here, I can tell you not everyone in Idaho thinks the same. Look at voter registration records. K? You can see the number of people registered to each political party.
Lots of people in this state not registered to any party. K? Not everybody thinks the same. And also, one of the most American things you can do is not just sit back and bow to politicians and let them, you know, tell you how to live your life. It's okay to speak up and go, hey.
I I don't agree with that because this is America. And I don't think as someone who has lived here my whole life that things have to be a certain way. No. Because lots of people disagree. And, yeah, again, this is America saying, you know, expressing a little bit of discourse is one of the most American things you could do.
That's how the country started, you know? Alright. England, we've had it with your crap. We're gonna go start something new where we can implement laws of the land that we would agree with because we don't like how you do things. And look how many things have changed over time in the history of our country.
K? I don't have to just get out because I don't agree with the people who get elected. K? Things can always, you know, change, but if people just sit back and, well, that's just how it is, then that's just how it's gonna be. If you wanna see change, you gotta at least say something, and there's nothing wrong with that.
So don't tell me to gear it out. I'm not gonna gee it out. I'm on stay. I was out snow blowing. K?
I accept the things about Idaho I don't want. Okay. I get yeah. I I I have said that snow sucks and that winter time's terrible. And I'm not a big fan of burly and maybe certain, towing companies.
That's about it. That's about it. I mean, come on. So, anyway, we'll do some freak news in a minute. But come on, don't don't tell people to just leave.
Alright? It's rude. Welcome to the age of stupidity. It's disturbing. Hail the rise of the idiots.
It's weird. It's disgusting. It's stupid. And it has its negative points too. It's freak news with Victor Wilt.
On k Bear 101. Let's party on a Monday with some freak news. Alright. To begin, this is not the first story I've seen about this in the last few months. I mean, somebody's clearly making money selling these tote bags that say, definitely not a bag full of drugs.
And the cops have gotta love them as well because this is not the first story where someone's been arrested after cops searched a bag that said, definitely not a bag full of drugs. And, well, it turned out it was a bag full of drugs. Brevard County, Florida, the latest location where someone was arrested. I think the other one was Florida too. This better not be a repeat story.
It's dated for, yesterday. So the woman doesn't look familiar to me. And I see plenty of these Florida women's stories though. So but I don't know. Yeah.
I'm looking at the, hall here. That would be a bag full of drugs. Yeah. It's a good way to, get yourself a lot of jail time if you're dealing with substance problems. Get some help, people.
Speaking of getting some help, if you struggle coming up with pins for your, you know, debit card, your ATM card, I got a list of 10 you shouldn't use. They're probably common sense and I don't even need to say them. 1234. Yeah. Don't do that.
11110007777. They're pretty much all, you know, like 444-422-2222. I I shouldn't have to throw it out there, but these are, 10 very popular PIN numbers. And people go, how did they hack my account? Account?
I don't get it. Yeah. Pick just about anything aside from the same number over and over. I don't know. I guess some people don't worry about their money.
Maybe they have a bank account that looks like mine. They're like, go ahead. Couldn't get much worse. Alright. Speaking of ways to save money, it looks like in New York, you've got people trying to save money on speeding tickets.
They set up these, speed cameras in the New York City area, and, people are taking bouquets of flowers and covering them up. Yeah. They're calling themselves the Staten Island beautification squad, and this is how they protest, by attaching small bouquets of flowers to block the lenses of the ticketing devices. Of course, you've got some people in the community like, this is great. Others going, hey.
You shouldn't be able to just speed around here, bro. Okay. I don't know what it's like in Staten Island, but I'll tell you, pretty much any big city I've been to, nobody obeys the speed limit. Alright? They're all going like 10 miles an hour or more over the speed limit.
As I cruise through Nevada and Arizona recently, nobody obeying the speed limit. Utah, no. They don't obey the speed limit. This just sounds like an easy money grab to me, but it's the law. What am I supposed to say?
I mean, if you are speeding, even if everybody else is, you can't go, well, everybody else was too. Or they're gonna go, what? If everybody jumped off a bridge, are you gonna do that? Me? Alright.
CIA has declassified a book detailing how the world will end. I think I'm gonna save that for the next break. We'll get into the details here. I'm very curious to find out how the world will end. Are you?
I mean, it's Monday. What better day to find out how the world's going to end than Monday? Alright. That's coming up in a bit. That was your freak news.
Catch it every weekday morning about, 7:50 or so right here on K Bear. Alright. We need some scary music for the end of the world. Yeah. Well, this is all conspiracy theory, so we'll go with X Files.
CIA declassifies book detailing how the world will end. Okay. Now this wasn't written by a CIA employee. So why the CIA decided to classify it? It?
I don't know. I was a former US Air Force employee and UFO researcher as well as self acclaimed psychic named Chan Thomas written back in 1966. But I guess if anyone who has worked for a variety of government agencies wants to put out a book, they have to get it, like, checked out and stuff. And what I'm assuming is that they looked at this and were like, okay. This might scare a bunch of people and, you know, people will believe anything.
Just look at Facebook. So they probably just thought it was maybe a little bit of a threat to the, you know, sanity of the country to release this book. He claims that every 65 100 years, a major disaster on the scale of the great flood strikes the earth. And since he says that the great flood was about 65 100 years ago, that the next catastrophe is imminent. He says that the Earth's magnetic field will suddenly drastically shift, wreaking havoc across the planet.
Yeah. It's gonna be bad. California going first. That's what he says. Oh, they got those fires going on right now.
He mentioned high winds, but he did also say the, mountains shake like ferns in a breeze. The mighty Pacific rears back up and piles into a mountain of water more than 2 miles high, then starts its race eastward. In a fraction of a day, all vestiges of civilization are gone in the great cities, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Dallas, New York. Nothing but legends. Barely a stone is left where millions walked just a few hours before.
He doesn't really have any evidence that this is gonna happen, But the fact that they classified it, I'm sure, is making people go crazy in the conspiracy theory subreddits and various groups online. Yeah. The apocalyptic tale begins with the destruction of California, wins with the force of a 1000 armies will shred everything in sight with its supersonic bombardment, and then the tsunami comes. Yeah. Again, no, real evidence that this is going to happen, but we could be wiped out at any moment.
I I just wanna let you know, you know, brighten things up on a Monday. There's lots of ways we could be wiped out at any moment. Big meteor hits the Earth. You know, super volcano goes off. You know, it it could happen.
But, you know, until you see, like, Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, like, piling into these, you know, spacecraft and going, man, we, you know, just kinda wanna go see what Mars is like. We just we're just curious until all the, you know, the the power brokers in the world are on a spaceship all at once. They I ain't too worried. Alright? Because do you think they'd tell us?
I don't think they'd tell us. People would panic. The world would go into chaos. Now they'd all just get ready to fly away on their spaceship, and, well, it'd probably end a little bit like that movie, Don't Look Up. Anyway, just wanted to let you know that book, well, they only declassified 50 of 200 pages.
What's in the other 150 pages? That must be where they have the truth. Anyway, again, no evidence to back up anything this guy's saying. But it was in the news, so I figured I'd share it with you. I hope that nobody picked up on this and goes, hey.
Victor said the world's gonna gonna end and then believes that and shares it. That is not what I said. I said I don't believe this. I I sure hope I'm right and this isn't happening. That'd be lame.
I got stuff I wanna do with my time. Alright. Anyway, back in a minute. The Victor World Show joined by Jay Davis, and I'm pretty sure you're the only person I know who has ever been to China. Uh-huh.
How many years ago did you go visit China? Was that 2017? Yep. That could be about right. I remember you came back talking like this.
That's where I've been at because of the all the smog that's over there, just maybe something like this after about 3 days. Yeah. And he spent 10 days there, so it just kept getting worse. I remember a quote from the singer of the band, The Cult, live on stage at the Porton of Hell Trust Amphitheater in Pocatello when we had a really bad fire season, and it the sky was very smoky. Oh, yeah.
Man, looking like Beijing out there. That's what he said. That was pretty close. I remember that. Well, you were saying over the weekend because everyone was losing their mind about TikTok.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Which is funny because it had been talked about for weeks. Yep. You know, this this is the date.
So everyone I think even my daughter might have downloaded that Red Note app. Yep. I I didn't because I don't care. I don't care either. And I I knew TikTok would be back.
Like, they'll figure out a way to deal with this. There's too many people in the US making money off of it. Yep. If people are making money, the government will make sure they can get their cut. Yes.
Alright. They're gonna fix this. Talk about that grandstanding. But you were saying you were reading a lot over the weekend about suddenly people thinking they need to move to China. The the greatest Oh.
Freest place ever, China. Go and then tell me that, what you think you were seeing on TikTok and Red Note is real. Yeah. China's a very large country. Before you go, look up a thing called gutter oil.
Okay. I'm gonna look it up, Jade. Let's look up what gutter oil is. Gutter oil is what you cook with when you can't afford, like, vegetable oil. Okay.
And guess where it comes from? Well, I'm guessing where you said it's called gutter oil. The gutter? You go lift up a manhole. Oh.
You scoop out that deliciousness. No. Put it in a pot. No. Start boiling it.
No. You know? And then scrape the oil off the top and then use that to cook with. Alright, Jade. In 2010, it was estimated that gutter oil represented 10% of China's edible oil market.
There was a an outdoor market that I went to and, what was it? Was it Suzhou? They call this the Venice of the East. Suzhou or Han? Suzhou or Honjo?
I don't remember, because they're right close to each other. But it's the Venice of the East and this outside market, you could definitely tell that they were cooking with gutter oil because it has a very particular smell to it. And, when I was over there, we were with a a little group with an English speaking tour guide. And, like, if you told a couple people that I made friends with, like, if you, find some fried food at this place, I would recommend not to eat it. Oh.
And they're like, why? And then I told them. And they're like, oh. And then when we got back on the bus, a couple other people had actually bought this. And the next day, they were in not not a good place.
Yeah. You should always listen to the tour guide. K? Like The tour guide didn't tell him. Oh, the tour guide?
You told him. Yeah. I told a couple of people I made friends with. What didn't the tour guide tell people? You know, when you go to Mexico, the tour guide's like Don't drink water.
Don't drink the water. Here, get a bottle of water. Yeah. Gutter oil smells like it's a a fart mixed with throw up. Fart and throw up.
It sounds delicious. You know? It's but then you're like, oh, let me get that pastry that's been laid inside in there. Alright. Well, I didn't expect China to become the next go to destination.
It it never pops up on the best places to live lists that, you know, show up. Where's the where's the best places to live in the world? I I don't ever see China on there, you know, along with many other places that just aren't supposed to be that great as far as human rights go. I was having just a grand old times call on the Facebook and TikTok. Man.
You wanna move to China? No. No. That's alright. Have fun.
And we are talking movies and TV shows. So much great entertainment out right now. And when it's negative 13, you don't wanna do anything else but sit on your own couch. Oh, yeah. It it was great yesterday after I got done dealing with the snow, sat down in my recliner.
I didn't even do that. I didn't walk outside. I'm like, dude. That's dumb. Yeah.
I, I didn't want to, but I did, and it sucked. It was cold outside yesterday morning. I could've waited a while, but I was like, I'll just get it over with. It was like 9 or something around that. The rest of the ice that's on my driveway.
Yeah. It's what I should've done. But afterward, I was very, you know, like, happy to be sitting in my chair. We decided to watch, The Substance. I don't know if you've, checked that one out yet.
I haven't heard of that one yet. It's, I guess you'd call it a horror movie. Oh, it's probably not. It, pretty much was on, like, every best of list at the top of the list for horror 2024. Demi Moore won a, Golden Globe Uh-huh.
For her acting in it, and she deserved it, man. It was a crazy movie. It was so crazy. Now when you say horror, is it a gore or like a psychological thriller? I mean, it's got gore.
Unexpected gore is what I don't wanna spoil it. Okay. But as the whole movie was going on, I was like, k. What's gonna happen? The the last 45 minutes, it just went off the rails.
I would definitely say there's a lot of gore, but it's an unexpected gore. You might appreciate parts of it, Jade. I don't know. Unexpected gore like The Boys? Yeah.
Yeah. I might I might put it in that one. Yeah. Yeah. What?
That kind that kind of stuff. What? What? Woah. Yeah.
That kind of stuff. That kind of stuff. Not like torture. Not like saw. Yeah.
It's not like saw. Not like saw. That's not okay. K. Yeah.
Not not torture or it was anyway, I don't wanna spoil. You should watch it. It's a great movie, and it has a good message. Good message and a work. It does.
Like Tucker and Dale versus evil. Crazy cold, kids. We were talking off air about Tropic Thunder. Oh, yeah. I watched that with, with Madison when she was in town because she hadn't seen it.
Yep. Still good. Tom Cruise in that? That's probably my all time favorite role of his. Yeah.
Definitely. This is so funny. My daughter didn't even recognize it was him. Well, till I I said something about him. She's, like, wait.
What? Well, I can just take a moment and step back. Movie is so good. I watched, finished up American Prime Evil. We've been talking about that one.
That that has, more brutal gore than the other movie for sure. There's some parts in that that are pretty gnarly. Oh, yeah. Oh, for sure. And it just has this ominous feel through the whole thing.
Oh, yeah. But at the end, you're like, yeah. It I I think kinda like, oh. Yeah. They wrapped it up really nice.
You know, no need to really take the story further from there that I could see. I I don't wanna spoil anything. Not much left to tell, but that was excellent. I I had a great weekend just kicking back watching stuff. It was nice.
Nice. You know, now if only, we had today off, so I could have continued doing that. That would be great. Well, there you go, folks. What did you watch anything over the weekend you'd like to watch?
Up, Prime Evil American Prime Evil and then started rewatching some other old stuff. Alright. Nothing spectacular. Cool. I was gonna kick start Tropic Thunder again because there were so many good memes that came through that I saw over the weekend.
Well, you told me you've been, letting your boys watch some, older people shows. PG 13 stuff. Not a not Tropic Thunder yet? No. Alright.
Broke them in with little Nikki, and that was pretty fun. Dude, I I love it when the kids get to that age where you can start watching that fun stuff. It's hard to remember what movies are PG 13 and what are rated r. And then also movies where you go, oh, I forgot this was in it. We're we're watching them.
There's a couple on the only game like, oh. That's fine. I will say the substance was at times uncomfortable to be watching with my daughter because there was, like, lots of nudity, you know, that was just kinda you remember how, we'll just say a coworker mentioned a movie that had a really long shower scene? Yeah. There there was parts in this where it's like, okay.
That's naked lady that's been on the screen for a what feels like a long time. I mean and it wasn't like, you know, sex scenes or anything like that. It was just I don't know. It it felt a little awkward. Just a heads up.
You know, don't worry about the gore, but those, you know, naked ladies. Can't have those. Can't have that. We got Peaches in the house. Happy Monday, Peaches.
Happy Monday. Yay. It's Monday. I'm so excited. I couldn't be more excited that it's Monday.
So, we were talking about this was off air, Peaches. We were talking about how, you know, here in the west, there are now tons of people because you showed me that post about, you know, somebody in Utah whining. I miss the old Salt Lake back in the day when there wasn't as many people in the eighties. But it wasn't even about the people. It was about the supposed crime in Salt Lake City.
Like, it's some sort of, like, crime ridden, you know, terrible place to live now. Yeah. Salt Lake, like any major city is going to have some crime, but it's I don't know. I I don't generally feel unsafe when I'm in Salt Lake City. I could go to any part of Salt Lake City and say this is totally fine Nah.
Compared to, you know, East Long Beach, Compton, all those cities I've been to. But, you know, it it reminded me that over the weekend, you know, Jade and I, we both watched the show American Primeval. And one of the things I found interesting about it was this was taking place in, like, the mid 1800. You know? And in the Western US, there were, like, no people.
You know, we had, you know, a lot of, Native Americans and things, but people were starting to migrate west. It is really kinda crazy how fast the population of the US has exploded. Like, if you go to the eastern part of the US, they don't have wide open spaces like we have out here where you could just, you know, drive a half hour outside of town, and you're in the middle of the desert where there's just nothing. You know, it's just town after town after it's all interconnected, super, you know, congested with people. I think people need to, slow it down.
They're getting kinda crazy with the baby's peaches, and they're even starting to give them crazy names. Oh, boy. Crazy names. Salt Lake City, though. They have the craziest names.
Haley spelled the weirdest way, h a y l e I g h. How many letters do you need? The more letters, the better, peaches. I have a terrible name too. Like, my parents are, like, we're gonna name our son Jaren because it's a combination of Jeff and Karen.
And they're, like, wait, that's kinda cringe. Let me go for Brendan and spell it a weird way. Well, what would you rather have? Would you rather have the name Brendan or something like, Trigger? Trigger?
Woah. How about Shooter Peach? Alright. That's apparently, these are becoming very popular names. I mean, maybe I shouldn't say very popular, but they've been used I was gonna say I've never been a I've never met a person named Trigger in my entire life.
The only person I've ever seen named Shooter was the golfer in Happy Gilmore. Oh, Shooter McGavin. Shooter McGavin. Yeah. He returns Happy Gilmore 2.
I'm excited for that sequel. I'm excited for that too. How about Dagger? Dagger Peach. Dagger Peach.
That's that's a That's a good radio name. Yeah. I need to come up with some unique name to really so if I marry a tall woman, and then I name my son something very unique, I I think I could have a better shot at getting him into the NBA. Yeah. Right.
You need to be That sounds like Yeah. Some kind of a star. Because you've seen there's a guy named Poop Johnson now in the end in football. His name's not really Poop. His nickname That's his nickname?
But he go but if you look up Poop Johnson, it looks like his official name. I'm not gonna Google that phrase. And so it's it's so funny because, like, the team walking this is welcome poop Johnson on the tweet. I I don't wanna know how you get the nickname poop. Right.
Exactly. Because most people get a nickname in some kind of way that there's a story behind it. Yeah. No kidding. Imagine naming your son Dagger.
Why did they name me that? Dagger Mace. Hello? Well, and I've I've heard of people named Colt. I don't know about Ruger.
Ruger. That's a little this is very old timey. Yeah. Winchester. Another old timey thing.
Remington. You know, they're all types of I called Remington Peach. Remington Peach is my name. Speaking of the Wild West. Remington Peach is my name.
Speaking of the Wild West. Sir, Remington Peach. It's because of that show Yellowstone, isn't it? That's why these names are popping up because of Yellowstone. They even said that, Cutter, you know, like our friend our friend in Wisconsin, which is not a real name.
Yeah. Every single time I try finding him on Facebook, it says, please seek help. Because I type I type in Cutter on the search bar. Yeah. You gotta look for Andrew.
That's a that's a good name. Yeah. It's it's not bad. How about, oh, Maverick? Just like the gas station?
Yeah. Dutton, Yellowstone again. Yeah. I think I like Dagger the best. Dagger Wilt?
Dagger Wilt? That's my boy. My son. You gotta tell Taryn about that, be like, hey, name name my first grandson Daggerwilt. Daggerwilt is what I demand.
Poppy, and have you had enough? What up? It's the Victor World Show. Hope your morning's going good. A little after 9.
Day going by at a decent pace for me so far, hopefully, for you as well. Well, I was looking through eastidahonews.com. You know, one of the great things about 10,000,000,000 people moving into the area is we've got a lot of new businesses opening up, lots of new places to get out and eat. If you haven't ever checked out the section under features called East Idaho Eats, you should go give it a look. Find out about new restaurants in the area.
You know, I got my daughter in town, so I'm thinking of taking her out to eat somewhere. Would be nice to try something new. The, latest article is about masala Indian cuisine in Rexburg. I haven't gone out to eat in Rexburg for a while. Maybe a cruise to Rexburg is in the cards.
How are the roads today? Be cautious out there, people. It was very chilly, so I would imagine nothing melted off unless they really coated the road. So, anyway, if you're gonna travel to or fro anywhere, just be cautious, but might wanna go check this place out, Masala Indian Cuisine. It looks pretty good.
352 South Second West in Rexburg. Well, they've got options for everybody, including those who are, gluten free, vegan, vegetarian. Looking at some photos here of the chili millipaneer. I I hope I'm saying these things right. The garlic peppercorn mock?
That looks really good too. Chicken tiki masala. You can't ever go wrong with that. Alright. I'm getting hungry.
Need to, close this out till work is over. You know? I ain't got time to drive to Rexburg right now. I'm sure Jade would get on my case. So if you wanna get more info, eastidahonews.com under features.
East Idaho Eats. Great place to find out about new restaurants in the area. Find something new and delicious. Maybe find your new favorite place to go out on the town. Alright.
Back in a minute. That's one of those you gotta be standing up to do kind of vocal speeches, and I'm sitting right now. But according to some people, Architects has gone soft. Yeah. Yeah.
They totally wussed out. Why do my headphones sound so crazy all of a sudden? This is, It's not your headphones that you're hearing. No. It's my headphones, dude.
I don't know. Who cares? What what are they plugged in at? Yeah. I don't know.
It the hey. There we go. Did you just oh, now they're I I need to back up. I think that that, jack must be messed up. You unplug them?
Yes. Stick it in a different hole over there, Peaches. That one, yeah, no good. Hey. There we go.
Okay. Better? That that sounds pretty good. That sounds pretty good. Okay.
So Peaches sent me a video. It's from, where was this? Was it in Brazil? This is why you have to respect people who work customer service big time. I don't understand anybody that doesn't do that.
Yeah. Because They've got a tough job. They have to put up with all kinds of people's crap. Nobody deserves this type of treatment at all, no matter what job, let alone customer service. Yeah.
And if you have an unreasonable spouse, you know, that's got anger problems and tends to deal with issues in unreasonable ways, don't send them to your place of work to confront your boss because they might do something like this guy who just kinda casually picks up a shovel, walks around for a bit waiting for the guy to be distracted, and then just right from behind, bam, just cracks him over the back of the head with a shovel. The article was kinda funny, not because somebody got hit with a shovel, but at the end, said the victim suffered injuries to his head and ear and sustained hearing loss. He was advised to file a statement at the station. No kidding. I mean, he got perfect footage.
I mean, that guy could probably get a whole lot of money out of this situation. Probably. I mean, if if somebody hits you with a shovel, you should report it to the police. You know, it might be a lesson to some out there, but yeah. Oh, man.
I I really wanna know how many riders for TMZ are now using chat GPT to help them with articles. I I need to go back to the the office to go check that out. Dude, I bet a surprising number of people in all aspects of any kind of writing are using chat GPT. Well, Harvey's on top of the whole website, and I'm sure he even was, like, yeah, just let's let it slide. Let's let's use chat GPT to help us write this one.
Yeah. You can churn out more more stories. Right. Yeah. You can churn them out left and right.
I mean, we've played around with chat GPT a lot. You know? And and it it gets better it gets better and better all the time. You know, they just released what? Number 4 or something like that?
I think so. Version 4? Pretty soon, it's gonna be so good that people are gonna have to give up on this whole, you can't use chat GPT. It's it's just gonna be get to be too good. You know, I don't know what, kids are gonna do in school.
I know essays are gonna be a thing of the past that I unfortunately had to live through. Yeah. Me too, man. Back in my day, we actually wrote our papers. We wrote them by hand in cursive.
And there was even times in class where there wasn't a computer and you would just use a lined piece of paper and a pencil. That's right. And you would do the in class writing essay. Mhmm. I I wrote most of the stuff growing up by hand because, computers were still like a novelty, a newer thing.
You know, we'd learn how to type, but we didn't actually use them for our our work. We had a typing class. There was a video I just saw of all these kids talking back in, like, 19 it was pre 19 sixties. And it's them talking to the people about certain issues or whatever. And everyone at the comments say, you can tell how much smarter these kids are compared to the kids of today going on and on and on.
No. I I I don't think that people were smarter back then than they are now. I think that, as far as human intelligence goes, it it's pretty set across, like, many, many generations of people. I would say the ability to talk has gone way down because everybody's, you know, glued to their phones or they're either they're they're saying things like, oh, I'm I'm an introvert. That's that's a huge thing right now as they keep repeating that word.
I think people are communicating more than they were. You know? Just because they're doing it via text. Yeah. Yeah.
But, because not in person. Like, you can't just walk down the street and, you know, talk to people. I've met so many people. What's wrong? I hope it isn't my headphones that are broken.
Because now maybe I need a new cord. Dang it. That, sorry, distracted me. That's okay. But in the past, peaches, people would write letters.
You know, you couldn't text somebody. You couldn't call them. You know, they send letters. Who bring that back? I like kinda like that idea.
You know? Handwritten letters. Long time to get that letter. Well, I like the whole handwritten letter thing. I have a whole box full of, like, my graduation cards, birthday cards, and all that.
And it's like, people put letters in there too. You know what I did with my high school, well, junior high yearbooks? I threw them in the garbage. Why would you do that? I just didn't want them.
My parents have all mine. Yeah. I was I was just looking at them and was like, I didn't really like junior high in the garbage. Okay. Alright.
You know, I there wasn't anything important in it to me. You know, the people from junior high who I'd still wanna talk to. Yeah. We have those pictures and stuff. Pictures of the people?
Yeah. The pictures of you Their student pictures. Yeah. No. I think the only picture of me in there was, you know, just my school picture.
What's, like, what about Taryn and Mattie? Or, like, I wanna see you in middle school. I've got other pictures. Okay. You know?
Here here here's a picture of me as a kid. Did you have any any embarrassing people sign it? Like, any, like, Probably. Any, like, you know, middle school crushes? You're like, they wrote hags with a heart.
She likes me. No. I I don't think girls really wrote any hearts in my yearbook, peaches. Oh, interesting. I don't think I became a a hit with the ladies.
I would Tell more than I was to say I was either, but I'm just saying, like, there was I was gonna say till when, like, ever. I guess they were friendlier, like, when I was in middle school. They'd sign your yearbook, but it didn't mean, like, oh, yeah. She's into me. This is just everybody.
Yeah. See, the the signatures didn't mean anything to me. It's like everybody just signed everybody's yearbooks. Or they would, like, just sign the name. You know, like, this person doesn't like me because and then in other yearbooks, they would put, like, a full on letter.
Well, they write some stupid stay cool. Yeah. I I I should go I should go back to my parents' place and go look through those signatures and see how many people, like, wrote long paragraphs and stuff. Yeah. Like I said, mine I never got one of my, high school yearbooks, not for any year I was there.
More expensive. Like, no. Low Sow High School had, like, 300 pages Jeez. In their yearbooks. It was, like, a $120 to get one of those.
Yeah. I don't know how many pages are were ours was, but it was pretty thick. But, again, if I had one, I'd probably throw it in the garbage. I should bring you over to throw away unnecessary stuff from my place. Yeah.
I've gotten really good at it. I've gotten really good at, getting rid of things that I don't need. Because I have these, like, baseballs from the Checkers games where I throw out the first pitch. And I'm like, should I get rid of these? Because or or should I just keep them and be like, this is the first pitch I've thrown out for some of these, like, small town baseball games.
I think I've got one, but then I I always started bringing out other people to throw the pitch. So, yeah, I think I've only got one, and I think I held on to it. I think. You're making a look at your face, and you you did not hang on to that. I I think I did.
I think it's on one of my bookshelves, but I could see it ended up at a thrift store. You know? Wow. Alright. We'll be back.
