#0142 - The Price of Eggs and Ranch Dressing: A Survival Guide
Well, hello. It's Monday. That's alright. We're gonna knock this day down quick style, and I hope you, are doing good so far. Hope the weekend was nice as well.
Mine, as usual, blazed on by Friday night, had a house full of my daughter and her friends, So it was kind of mayhem. Yeah. And it's partially my fault because I'm like, all right. You guys wanna watch a movie or something? I'll stay out of your hair.
And then they started watching a movie pretty late. They wanted to watch the substance, which I've talked quite a bit about on this show in the last week. So I told my daughter, I'm like, make sure you use my system right. There's a reason I have that system. Turn it up.
Alright? If you're gonna watch a movie, you watch a movie. My bedroom's on the other side of the wall from said sound system. Luckily, I was pretty beat. And, despite the thunderous base, I was able to get to sleep.
And then, Saturday what happened Saturday? Grocery shopping. Do you wanna hear my whole list? It it was, fairly uneventful Saturday. Hung out with my daughter till she took off, and then Sunday kicked back and watched a number of episodes of mister robot with my lady, and that show is, pretty great so far.
So yeah, hopefully I can get, a lot of TV watching time in this week. Ripped down the Christmas tree last night. It had been up for a long time because I wanted to, you know, do Christmas with each of the girls and while they've been around for the last month, basically. So, was nice to get that put away though. My little kitten, Lucy, she was, pretty disappointed.
I think when the, the tree came down, it was on the floor in pieces and she just looked at me like, what are you doing? I like that tree. Well, she'll have to get used to, one of the 10,000,000,000 other things that I've picked her up for entertainment. She's super spoiled. I bought her a, new toy at Winco when I went grocery shopping, been eyeing it for a bit.
$7 cat fishing pole. She is insane about this thing. I've bought her a 1000000 other little toys. I'm like, yeah, I don't wanna spend $7 on the fishing pole, but sure. I'll drop $3.4 on all kinds of little things that she doesn't care about.
Should have just got the $7 fishing pole to begin with. So yeah, if you're looking for a cat toy, fishing pole, it's good. Good quality stuff. I mean, it's, I don't know if it's good quality, but she likes it. See how long till she rips it to pieces.
And then I gotta buy another $7 fishing pole. All right. So there you go. Weekend recap from Victor Wilt. And now I can start digging into the news.
I didn't look at social media. Like, hardly at all over the weekend. So I'm hoping something stupid has happened that isn't related to politics. You know? We are in the day and age when it would just be the easiest to be a talk radio, you know, political talk host, endless content.
But as I can tell by any time east Idaho news par posts an article, yeah, I'm not gonna, not gonna go crazy with that stuff on here. They just post articles and people go crazy because of the news. Like you're biased east east Idaho news. I see what's going on here. It's like, no, they're just posting the news.
People have gotten way too used to, the news being biased and feeding you a perspective that you want to hear. They go crazy when they just see the breakdown of the facts. Alright. Anyway, I I don't even wanna get going in that direction, but there were there were a handful of times when I did scroll social media over the weekend. And every time what drove me away from it was looking at an east Idaho news article that was simply, here's what happened, and people just go and ape.
Just go and ape. Well, we got tour dates from that band last week, 9 inch nails, but I want new music. I mean, what a first world problem. Right? Oh, 9 inch nails is gonna be coming to Salt Lake.
They haven't toured in, you know, ages. But what about new music? Wonder if 9 inch nails, how, how the tickets were selling. Oh, it's not even on sale yet. Oh, I thought it went on sale Friday.
Okay. Well, apparently no on sale until Wednesday at noon. Alright. Gonna be appearing at the Maverick Center in Salt Lake. Oh, they've got, an open pit on the floor.
I like seeing that. You know, Tool. I love tool. But if you're gonna be on the floor if you're on the floor, you gotta be, you know, open floor. Nothing worse than being stuck in a seat, and you got peaches in front of you.
You know, that's my luck. You know, I I don't mind being on a or in a seat on the side because if you're on the side, everything's, you know, on on like a slope it's elevated. So, you know, as long as it's not peaches in front of you, somebody who's, you know, a foot taller than you, you can see pretty good. But yeah, being in a seat on the floor, that can be kind of brutal if you're, if you're getting to stand. And if everybody sits down, sure.
But that that's not how shows work. I will say the old boomer show I went to in Vegas with my friend, Nick, you know, to see Adrian Baloo, Tony Levin, Steve Vai, and Danny Carey play king Crimson songs. We were, like, the youngest people there, and everybody just sat there nerding out the whole show. There was no standing till maybe the end of the show. It was great.
But, you know, unless you're going to something like that where the whole crowd's gonna be, you know, older people, You need to be in the pit. Alright? So, anyway, tickets on sale on Thursday, 9 inch nails, the peel it back tour. I'm guessing where it's called the peel it back tour. They've got an album coming called peel it back.
Give us a single, Trent. Come on. I want some new music. Dang it. Alright.
Well, aside from that, hopefully, we get some kind of rock show announced here soon. Now I believe the port of hell trust amphitheater is announcing the show soon. Just wanna remind everybody if it's a show that is not to your liking, you know, you don't have to let everybody know in the comments because nobody cares if you don't like a particular lineup. Alright. Every show announcement, not my thing.
No one cares. Just reminded you. I will as I will say I was bummed to see no 9 inch nails, coming to coming right here to east Idaho. I I was hoping that would've been awesome, but salt lake isn't that far away. I mentioned on Friday I'm pretty sure I mentioned anyhow that, one of my favorite artists, Dax Riggs, has dropped a new album, 7 songs for spiders, and, I gave it a a few listens over the weekend.
I was glad to sit down and really crank it up on a good system because it was kinda underwhelming. First go around just listening in my truck. You know, my truck system sucks. It it does the job. Like, music comes out of the speakers.
There's a tiny bit of bass. It's fine, but it's not, you know, the the clarity levels. Nothing compared to a nice quiet room at home that I then make very loud. So, anyway, this artist in particular, I have tried to line up an interview with him for years because I've I met him one time. We hung out a bit, and I figured, alright.
Well, maybe he'd remember me. Maybe we do, you know, I'd be able to get him for an interview. Never heard anything back, but a couple interviews popped up in the last week and now I gotta say maybe I'm glad I didn't get an interview with them because, like, for example, there's this one at floodmagazine.com. I'm checking out here. And, like, alright.
We asked Dax Riggs 5 questions. Here's one of them. How much pressure did you feel when it came to recording this album after such a long period away? Here's his response. No pressure, really.
Only love. That's it. That's one of the 5 questions. The questions are all longer than the responses. I like check out this question.
This is such a beautiful and bleak album. Sunshine felt the darkness smile, blues for you know who, and ain't that darkness in particular straddle that line perfectly. How do you approach creating such beauty out of such darkness? Dax's response, I think that's how I see the world, like a horrible miracle. Like, dude, come on.
You gotta give us more than that. I have personally had this guy say more to me directly than this. Just after a show. Who is the who in blues for you know who? The fallen?
The rebellious? You tell me. No. You wrote the song. Come on.
Gotta keep it mysterious. Anyway, I mean, I've I've read almost the whole interview for you on air right now. So, yeah, I would have been a little bit disappointed. Alright. We got a 10 minute interview.
Maybe I'd be able to get them talking. Maybe that's the problem. They come up with these big, long questions. Like, the swamps of Louisiana and what you call Cajun Air seem to have played a huge role in the inspiration of these songs. Can you elaborate on why that place feels so special and inspiring for you?
This is his longest response. It's where nature is god at the edge of the earth. It has a kind of weird beauty, prehistoric, and funky. Alright. Alright.
I guess I should read the the rest of the interview to you, you know, since we got this far. Acid Bath also announced their return last year. How are you feeling about these upcoming shows and how do the 2 projects individually represent you? My new stuff is spiritual for me and acid bath is kind of like a huge weapon. That's it.
That's the entire interview. Why even call that an interview? Hey. Note, you know, loyal readers of Flood Magazine. Dax Riggs said 5 sentences to us.
That should have been the headline. Not check out our interview for 5 questions. Now 5 sentences from Dax Riggs coming your way. Welcome to the show. It's the Victor World program.
As one of you, I know us guys can be dumb. A lot of stupid dudes out there, and I'll I'll lump myself in. You know, I'm I can be pretty stupid sometimes. I'm not as dumb as some of you, but I'm certainly dumber than a lot. Always down to try to help you out with ladies, dudes.
I haven't even read through this, so hopefully the answers are appropriate. Ladies have read it. What's something a guy has done intentional or not that instantly made you think, wow, he's different in a good way. Alright. It's a good thing that I'm fairly decent at, you know, reading and talking at the same time so I can determine if these things are going to be, you know, Jade approved for air.
Alright. In high school, one of my guy friends who liked me baked me a big plate of chocolate chip cookies and randomly gave it to me one day. I finished the whole plate during one class and he was impressed and also a bit horrified. You know, I gotta say I'd be pretty impressed too. Like, alright.
Cheese down to mow down a giant plate of cookies. Probably not gonna judge me when I do the same thing. Alright. So, I thought it was super cute and unusual for a dude to bake someone cookies. Yeah.
Especially in high school, you don't seem to see that too often other than, like, maybe in home ec class, which was the best class in school because you got to eat, you know, you'd cook something and then you got to, like, eat extra food. Never seemed like the school lunch was satisfying enough. Maybe that's a problem with me. Portions are too small. I'm from Idaho.
I know what a portion is. It's gigantic. That's right. Let's talk about the amount of food you get. Say when you go to Olive Garden.
There you go. That's a portion. Texas Roadhouse. Mhmm. Okay.
What else do we have here? One of our first dates, a teen waitress spilled a whole glass of water on him when it was super busy and she was rushing about. She started apologizing with tears almost running down her face, and he took the time to console her, not even worrying about his clothes. He gave her a moment to breathe without the other customers by pretending to look busy with her before she went on her way feeling better. I've seen too many wait staff get treated poorly.
If somebody spills water on you, like, just settle down. Alright? I'm sure it's annoying, but it'll be okay. And this was a full glass of water. Now if it was milk Alright.
I'd still be nice to the person because unless it was intentional. They come over and they're like, I hate you. They dump this glass on you. Alright. Then you can get mad.
But if it was an accident, come on. Accidents happen. It'd be disgusting to get covered with a full glass of milk, but there's worse things. Generally not at restaurants, but what else do we have here? So we've learned so far, dudes.
You need to bake some cookies, bake some goods, and just be a rational, calm, nice human being. I know that might be a lot to ask in 2025. Let's see here. When my husband was my boyfriend, I noticed that he always acknowledged everyone in the room. For instance, whenever we were in a room with my entire family, he would approach absolutely everyone.
My dad, mom, sister, cousins, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and be able to establish a conversation and a relationship with them eventually. Even my relative's dog knew him to be the only one that could set aside some time just to pet him. Yeah. I think that makes a very good impression on people for sure. And it can be tough if you're shy.
My daughter was actually talking with me about this over the weekend because at some point, I guess next time they come visit, she's gonna bring her boyfriend along, and she's like, yeah. He wanted to stay at his parents' house 1 night, and I didn't know what to do. I'm like, just be yourself. You're fine. You talk a lot.
You're very friendly. What's it'll all be good. It'll all be good. Just be yourself. Now depending on who you are, maybe don't be yourself.
But if you can't be yourself, the relationship's gonna fail anyway. So just give up. What else do we have here? Tips for dudes. My husband genuinely listens when I talk about hobbies.
He doesn't share and remembers what I said about them. It makes me really happy. Alright. Dudes, you gotta pay attention. And also, if you're forgetful, take some notes or something.
Well, look at me. I can't remember crap, but if I note something that seems like I might want to remember it down the line and, yeah, save said note. There there's ways to work around these things. You know, nobody's perfect. All right.
If you're forgetful notes, take notes. You should see my desk. I just cleaned up a bunch of notes the other day. Finally was like, okay, these things are done. Crumple up into the trash.
Look at your no wonder you're overwhelmed by notes. Most of these notes you've dealt with. Alright. Anyway, let's continue on with more tips for you dudes. Like I said, a few minutes ago, dudes can be dumb.
I know because I'm one of you. When it comes to the ladies, any kind of advice you can get and follow well, maybe not any. I'm trying to give you good advice here or at least analyze advice from the Internet and tell you whether I think it's good or not. There's too many dudes out there getting advice on, you know, the ladies from just completely ignorant men, and that stuff is gonna get you nowhere. Nowhere other than, you know, the path to being alone, sitting alone.
Okay. Anyway, let's get into the advice here. I had a listener call me who pointed out sometimes you just need to listen. This is great advice. Listen, and don't offer up advice.
Sometimes someone just wants you to listen. They need someone to vent to and you don't need to fix everything. I trust me. I'm very guilty of this at times. I always wanna try to make things better.
And a lot of times, you can't. There's nothing you can do to make it better or you don't know what's going to make things better. Just listen. Just listen. Now, if someone's asking for advice or if you think you have really good advice, maybe put it out there.
But for the most part, now a lot of times somebody just wants somebody to listen and actually pay attention alright great advice what else do we have here this user says I had a difficult childhood by the way if you're just tuning in these are tips or things a guy has done that, you know, blew these women's minds or made them think, wow, this guy is different and really impressed them. Okay. So this user says, I had a difficult childhood and at one point survived on cans of spam and sardines. Yeah. Someone needs to tell her about ramen.
Sardines and spam? Now spam is not that bad, but I can't do sardines. When it when it looks just like, you know, a chunk of fish, I think that, sir strumming ruined anything like that for me permanently. Alright? Not a big fish guy to begin with.
But, anyway, I off handedly mentioned to him how I always keep at least a can of each in my pantry at all times because it gives me a sense of peace and safety to know there is something to eat. We weren't even dating at the time I visited on the weekends to help with his garden. But the next time I visited, he showed me the several cans of spam and sardines he bought in his pantry, told me he always wanted me to feel safe with him and his home, and he will never let either of those items run out. Been together for a little over 3 years now. Look at that.
You ever think spam could be romantic? Sardines? Romantic? That's right. You just gotta pay attention to people.
Pay attention to what they say. And, again, take it from a forgetful person. Take notes. K? I have a terrible memory.
One thing to the next. What chore was I going to do? Why did I walk into the kitchen? Why am I on this floor of my house? Alright.
Let's see here. My husband and I have been together for 21 years, so I'll share an anecdote that made me fall in love all over again. When we were at my father's funeral or my husband's father's funeral and we were wrapping up at the cemetery doing the part where people take flowers, as mementos, my husband took a white rose, then he walked about 10 yards away. When we were leaving, I snuck a peek at the headstone and realized it was my husband's baby brother, one who was born, well, died at birth 35 years ago. He didn't say anything to anyone or anyone, make any mention, but the, gesture will live in my memory forever.
Alright. Yeah. It's pretty nice here. Let's see. How is it already 715?
Am I, like, just blabbering on uselessly, like, more than usual? Maybe. Trying to help you dudes. Well, maybe we'll do some more of this in a bit. I don't know.
We'll see. But by the way, if you wanna get ahold of me, I am here doing it live unless you're listening to this on demand. 208-535-1015, the number to call if you ever wanna reach us. Back in a second. I don't know what's up with the weather.
I I guess I could look at that real fast. I'm gonna do something that you might be able to call in on in a second as well. 208-535-1015. Talking about music. Big surprise on a music station.
Looking at our local weather, still cold as crap in east Idaho. On my way here, my truck said, like, minus 1. Looking at a high today of about 22. Alright. Where's the the 10 day forecast?
Alright. By the weekend, should be scorching hot. Get back up into the, low thirties for the high, and it'll probably start dumping snow. Fantastic. Alright.
Let's get back to, what I was going to talk about. Just posted this question in the KBAR group, k Bear 101 Idaho rock and metal on Facebook. You're listening to the show on demand. You should join that group. It's a fun time.
It's like pretty good vibes overall. I mean, most radio station pages, you go to them, Man, the listeners are just brutal in the comments, but we got the best listeners on the planet. So what's a band or artist that everyone seems to love but you can't get into? Alright. For me, artists that people love but I just can't get into.
Alright. We'll stray from rock for a minute, and I'll go with the most popular artist in the world right now, Taylor Swift. I I just cannot can't get it. I don't know. There's pop music that I like.
There are a lot of different pop songs that I like. I've talked about them on air, but I I just don't get it when it comes to Taylor Swift. You know? I and any of these artists that are gonna get mentioned here, it's not like I'm going, they suck. They're terrible.
I just don't click with it. Alright? Just not my thing. Like on the, rock end. There's tons of bands we play on k Bear that, you know, it's like, oh, they're okay.
But they some of them could be the most popular bands on the station, and I'm like, well, they're they're okay. Would I turn them on in my spare time? No. No. Well, let's see what, what people on Reddit are saying.
If you've got an artist that everyone seems to love but you just can't get into, feel free to call me. 208-535-1015. Would love to hear your thoughts. Alright. Top answer right now on Reddit is the Dave Matthews Band.
Would I turn them on in my spare time? Probably not. I've seen some live videos of those guys and they actually put on a a pretty good live show. They almost seem like a jam band or something. I mean, are their fans just kinda like a bunch of hippies?
Is Dave Matthews Band where, you know, people are into the Grateful Dead go when dead and company are not on tour? They, they had, a pretty good live show. I've never seen them in person, but, I recall a few videos where I was kind of surprised by their live chops. KBE. You are live on the show.
Keep that in mind. Who's this? This is the dusticles. Dusticles. All right.
What you got for an artist? Everyone seems to love, but you just can't get into. I gotta say bad omens, dude. Okay. Bad omens, is a band that I've seen live multiple times.
They've got a couple songs that I think are, you know, they're pretty good, but I I don't think I'd ever throw them on in my spare time. Yeah. That's exactly. Like, I've tried a few times, but I mean, the ones that are played regularly on K Bear aren't as bad, but it's just it's not my style and everyone's so obsessed. And I'm just like, it's just not my thing.
And so Yeah. Just tell Dude, I'm I'm totally with you on that. I mean, I I think they're a great band. Clearly, they're connecting with people. But yeah, it's, I guess something about the overall vibe.
It's just not really my thing. Yeah. Yep. So I I like Are they good live? Oh, they're excellent live.
They're they're great live, nice dudes as well. We had them in studio, you know, a couple years ago and, super nice guys. I mean, they sent me a plaque for supporting the band, so I love them love them for that. But yeah, I, I like some of their heavier songs and I think the song, the death of peace of mind is, is really good. Yeah.
But like the, yeah, the, the real big songs, you know, they're just kind of okay to me. Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, I've I've noticed in my personal experience, there are a few bands that I've seen live that I really, really enjoyed. And then I tried to listen to their recorded stuff, and it just it wasn't good.
Yeah. I've I've had that issue with a bunch of bands too. Just blew my mind live. And then I go, like, the Melvins, for example, I they put on one of the most incredible shows I've ever seen, one of the heaviest shows I've ever seen, And I just cannot get into their recorded material. Baroness is another band like that.
Tesseract saw them with Devin Townsend was like, wow. And Tesseract's newer stuff. I have been able to get a little more into, but whatever they had out at that time, like, you know, a decade or longer ago, just didn't click. Oh, yeah. Yep.
So right on, does schools appreciate the call today, man, and hope you have a a good rest of the week. Oh, yeah. You as well. Thank you so much. Right on, man.
Peace. Yep. See you. 208-535-1015. The number to call for bands or artists that everyone seems to love that you just can't get into.
The second most popular answer on Reddit at this moment is maroon 5, and I am in total agreement. I I don't think that everyone seems to love them, though. I think they they take a lot of hate online. I don't think they're really they ain't like no Taylor swift or something. And back to the Dave Matthews band, and it they seem like another band that takes a lot of, flack online I I listen to Dave Matthews band over maroon 5 any day though I mean I don't hate maroon 5 because I don't hate well all right.
There are artists that I don't like and might use the phrase hate, but it's not because of their music. It's just because of them personally. Let's go to the phones here. K Barrett. You're live on the show.
Who's this? Hey. This is Sean. How you doing? Sean, I'm for a Monday, pretty decent.
What you got for an artist or band that everyone seems to love that you can't get into? It always seems to be controversial, but Pearl Jam is one I just cannot stand. Dude, you know, I hear that from a variety of people and, I've I'm kinda middle ground with Pearl Jam. Like, I don't know if I'd throw them on in my spare time, but, they've got some songs I like, and I I'd really like to see them live because I haven't, I watched a documentary about Pearl Jam, where they were talking about the old days and showing Eddie Vedder, like climbing up on the, the rigging above the stage and jumping in the crowd. They used to be really wild, so I've got a respect for Pearl Jam, but, Yeah.
There's only a handful of songs I I really like. So yeah. And I, I mean, the songs that get played, I feel are overplayed. Maybe that's, that's why I feel that way and I've never seen them live. So maybe that would change my mind, but Yeah.
I, I don't ever put them on just to listen to them. Yeah. Me either. You know, when I was younger, I remember I listened to the, the 10 album a lot. But, yeah, I I don't know.
I I think I'm with you on that one. They they don't click with me. Like, some people are fanatics. They've got that Grateful Dead kind of following Pearl Jam. Oh, yeah.
You know? Yeah. But yeah. Good answer, man. Do.
I do. I do. Good answer. Yeah. Thanks for your time.
Hey. Thanks, man. Hope you have a good week. You too. Peace.
Bye. Alright. 208-535-1015, the number to call. If you'd like to answer the question of what's a band or artist that everyone seems to love, but you just can't get into. The next one that they mentioned here is another artist I respect, has certainly blown up bigger, I mean, than pretty much anybody in the last few years.
Jelly Roll. You know, again, respect the songwriting, respect his story. I haven't personally met him, but all my radio friends who have say he's the nicest guy ever. Lou loves Jelly Roll. But his songs yeah.
They don't click with me at all. You know? The rock songs or the country songs. I don't know. But that, you know, everybody's taste is different.
It's always kinda interesting. Take a look at what's really popular. You know, it's the guy who handles the music on all of the stations in the building. Sometimes I'll find a great, you know, country or pop song that I'm like, this is actually excellent, unique. And then, you know, yeah, it doesn't really go anywhere in the big scheme of things.
So happens on the rock end a lot. Some of my favorite tracks from bands, they're they are not their big hits. So, anyway, I gotta get ready for freak news, but we'll we might get back to this topic here in a bit because, I think it'll get a lot of response. So, yeah. Give me a few to find some stupid news, and then we'll keep going.
It's the Victor Wilt channel. Hey. It's Victor Wilt with your daily dose of stupid freak news. Alright. You can't do everything for the likes.
K? You might have a video go viral and not for a good reason, or maybe you think it's a good reason. Then the cops come a knocking. I actually saw this video on TikTok last week. I've started looking at TikTok here and there because at least the way my algorithm works, it feeds me stuff that doesn't make me wanna smash my phone.
Yeah. It has become I I don't know. It might might just start getting worse like all social media is right now. But the video in question shows a a man. I don't know if it's the baby's dad, but it shows a man with a baby that at least from what I recall, it's all bundled up in winter clothes, and he's using it to wipe the snow off of his vehicle.
And I don't know. Maybe being from Idaho. I didn't really think much about the video. Because again, it wasn't like it was a baby wearing a, you know, just a onesie. And he's just shoving it into the snow.
It it was bundled up. I'm pretty sure. But using your baby to clean snow off your car, a lot of people not gonna like that. So, yeah, this guy is, under investigation in Port Arthur, Texas. They expect an arrest warrant to be issued.
I don't know exactly what the charge is. Some kind of, you know, child abuse. The video had gone viral. Again, I saw it. But you don't wanna go to jail over a viral video.
And then down the line, your kid, you know, they grow up, and they're like, I wonder if my dad's on the Internet. Google his name. You don't want people to Google your name and find horrible things. Alright? Especially your own children.
So, yeah, don't do that. Jeez. Alright. What else do we have here? Oh, the drones are coming back.
Remember mysterious drones in New York and New Jersey? I guess the FAA had some type of a temporary ban in place, and that's gone. So now the drones are back. No word on what the purpose of the drones are, if these are military, if they're just, you know, regular old puddin' heads flying around drones, but I'm sure the Internet's gonna start losing their mind about it again. What's up with the drone distraction?
I mean, lots of people have drones. I don't know why this is, making people so crazy. And if you see UFOs in this in the sky, sure. But drones like, oh, look. There's a drone.
Yay. Somebody's, you know, shooting a video for their real estate listing or who who knows? So the drones are back. Just figured I'd give you a heads up on that. And if you were curious about the egg prices in Idaho Falls, East Idaho News, they went to every grocery store and they found the cheapest eggs in Idaho Falls.
The cheapest eggs were available at grocery outlet, but they only had a limited supply and they're they're sold out. Egg prices. Do you guys know that eggs are really expensive right now? I can't believe it. Woah.
When did eggs become the the go to the barometer for the current inflation levels? K. In the last couple years, I have seen egg prices all over the place. K? They've been extremely high.
I they've never been as high as now, but then they've also got down to being really cheap. You know, right now, you go to, Fred Meyer according to this article. 749 a dozen. Yikes. I know I was at Winco, over the weekend and, was gonna cook my daughter breakfast.
So I bought an 18 pack of eggs for, like, 4 or something. The eggland's best. Yeah. You know, you get away from the gigantic stack of eggs. I shouldn't even be telling you guys this because now I'm gonna not be able to go well, I don't have any kids around anymore, so not gonna be buying any eggs anytime soon.
But, yeah, away from the dozen eggs for $5, you have the egg lands best for the same price for an 18 pack. So just a heads up there. Maybe look at some of the other eggs like the the brown eggs and things like that. Brolin 630, Walmart. Walmart and Winco, the same.
4.53, a dozen. But, anyway, I wanted to bring this story up because everybody seems to use eggs as their gauge for figuring out where we're at with the price of groceries. And I don't think you should because eggs have been all over the place like I mentioned for the last few years and there's an explanation for why eggs are so expensive. There's a shortage because chickens are dying by the 1,000,000 from bird flu. K?
There's an explanation. Anybody wanna tell me why I bought a bottle of Hidden Valley Ranch at Winco the same day? And it was almost I ain't lying. Almost $10. Yes.
It was the big one, you know, because I was trying to get the most bang for my buck. And, you know, when the small bottle's like 6 or $7, it's like, k. I guess I'll get the gigantic one. Almost $10. Yeah.
As far as I can tell in the last few weeks, not just eggs, but everything's been going up. Why aren't we taking a look at the the price of meat? Price of meat gone through the roof. But what is the explanation for ranch dressing being $10 a bottle? Do we have a milk shortage?
Far as I know, we don't. Milk all over the place. People be mowing down raw milk. Milk is very popular right now. And I don't buy milk very often, but I don't seem to recall milk itself being very expensive.
You know, how do you make ranch? Milk, mayonnaise, and, seasoning. Oh, mayo. Eggs. That's it.
Right? That's why ranch is high. Alright. Well, I found my explanation for that. Is it weird that I know that you gotta use eggs to make mayo?
What kind why can't I have knowledge in my head that, I don't know, helps get me a raise or something like that? But even okay. Ketchup. Do we got a tomato shortage? Big bottles of ketchup.
They're up in that like 5 to $7 range. Are we having a sugar shortage? What's going on here? Every how about soda? Soda.
You wanna go get yourself a 12 pack of Coke? What are those running, like, $9 or something? I remember when you could pick one of those up for $3. That's right. Sugar?
Do we have a sugar shortage? Anyway, just wanna remind you to pay attention to, everything. K? Because just because the eggs come down in price doesn't mean that we're all saved. Alright.
Anyway, that's the end of freak news. Sorry if I ruined your morning talking about the price of eggs. I know that people get very sensitive when it comes to the price of eggs. I mean, it's annoying because that was always a cheap food item, and now it isn't. Now it's a luxury item.
You know? You wanna get yourself a filet mignon or do you want eggs? I don't know what the price of steak is right now. I'm guessing it's not cheap. Out of my budget.
Well, when it comes to making tacos or something, sorry, kids. You get ground turkey. That beef's too pricey. Now do we got turkey problems too? Like we do with the chickens?
Is turkey gonna get to be an outrageous ground turkey? Okay. Sorry. I know. Again, people don't wanna hear about grocery prices.
But I I hadn't yet gotten off of east Idaho news. Once I get in there sometimes, it's like, oh, I gotta see what's going on in the comments here. So I was reading through a variety of other articles, and I see this comment all the time on eastidahonews.com because they, will pull stories occasionally, from the Associated Press or CNN. And people, when they see the words CNN, they lose their minds. Oh, East Idaho News.
You just showed us the truth. You're liberal. K. I just want to let everybody know that CNN is not liberal news. K.
Take that from someone who, you know, is a bit liberal. If you wanna look at left wing liberal news, it is not CNN. K. You gotta go to, like, the hill.com or something like that. CNN, as far as I'm concerned, is right wing news.
Yeah. That might sound crazy to some people, but to me, based on all of the different news sites I check out because I look at the right wing news. I look at the left wing news. I wouldn't even put CNN in the center. K?
CNN leans right and that might again sound crazy, but it's just because they don't lean as far right as some of the other news sites. Ask ask a real liberal. Nobody looking at CNN. No. So you should love CNN if you like yourself, news with a, you know, little bit of a slant to the right.
And I'm just being honest about that. That's my personal opinion. Always makes me laugh when I see people talk about the, you know, crazy left wing CNN. Like, you haven't talked to a left wing person or read any left wing news. So anyway yeah.
Cut East Idaho news some slack. I will always remind everybody that they seem to do a great job of just putting out the facts without some kind of opinion. I don't I don't tend to see opinion based stuff on their website. It's just here's the news. K?
I mean, sure. Since sometimes they pull from CNN, it might lean a little bit right, but, I don't know. I can hear somebody. Adventure's lost his mind. But, yeah, go go to the hill.com, and then take a look at CNN.
K? Very, very different. Alright, Peaches. I tried to follow your link here and it, I don't know, didn't send me to the particular story you were trying to send me. I wonder if the person deleted it.
That could be a yeah. Because now your post itself seems to have, disappeared. Yeah. There were some code words in there that people were flipping out about on the Life in Idaho Falls Facebook. Code words?
Yeah. Yeah. I'll write them down. Okay. Now Where's the piece of paper at?
Here. What were they trying to say? That the article was coded or I don't quite understand what what's going on here. Something to deal with, what's it called? I can't a certain date.
Alright. Hang on. Here's a pen. I know you're caught up with political. I'm not talking politics Peaches.
Come on. All I, all I mentioned was that CNN is not liberal news. I just wanted to point that out to people because I see it all the time online, you know, anytime. K. Somebody wrote that and apparently that's a that's a code phrase for something else.
What? And everybody in the comment section was losing their minds. And I mean flipping out on this person. No wonder the post has been deleted. I feel bad for the admins of that group.
I wonder I wonder how many posts they delete that are downright hilarious that I wish were posted that they see every single day. Oh, yeah. They probably block all kinds of good stuff here. K. I'm googling that term you just gave me to determine what it's about here.
So this is just a sort of a protest? Is that what's going on there? I think so. Yeah. Alright.
Let me look at another article here. I think we can say the phrase cause I don't think it's like a code for anything bad. Right? From what I can see. I wouldn't think so, especially if you're saying it the way that I mean, it's not like a certain phrase that we've said that someone said on the phone before that we've dumped out before involving a weird version of my name.
Yeah. But that's very different than this. It's completely different from from what we're discussing here. Okay. So what it seems to be about is pushing back against US government policies and censorship, and you do so by talking about your cute winter boots.
That's the phrase you wrote down, cute winter boots. So, you know, anytime there's a mysterious new phrase that pops up, gotta be cautious about just saying it, especially nowadays. Well, the this person was trying to arrange something for January 29th, which I'm assuming is just gonna be like a walk with a sign type of thing. Yeah. But And people were losing their minds in the comment section thinking it was gonna be another type of uprising, if you will.
Oh, another uprise. Okay. You you know what I'm referring to. Yeah. Now, I've seen a lot of people losing their minds about, protests recently because there have been a number of, different protests.
Hey, everybody. It's America. It's America. Yeah. And peaceful protesting is part of the American way.
You can get out and protest anything you want. Right. You know, I could get a sign and go walking up and down the street. Kewpie sucks. Kewpie sucks.
And, Funny you mentioned that. I almost sent that to you. I drove by their station, yesterday, and I was gonna write sucks with them with the Snapchat marker. So yeah. You know, I don't know why people are getting so upset at people just expressing their opinions.
What? Why would people fight about cute winter boots? And it's a good time of year for them. It's very cold outside. I recommend winter boots right now even though I wouldn't wear them.
Definitely. But yeah. People will fight about anything online. That's why I pointed out the, you know, the CNN thing, the east Idaho news article where, you know, it was sourced from CNN and people just start screaming how east Idaho news is liberal. Like really?
Really? There is no liberal news in Idaho. Okay, everybody There just isn't it's all gonna be center right all of it Come on. Use some common sense here. Just because it's not, you know, far to one side doesn't mean that it's the other side.
Why don't you start the Victor Walton network and No. I gotta put up some leftist news. If I want leftist news, yeah, I go to one of the leftist news websites, but it's not CNN. That is not leftist news. I know leftist news when I see it.
Same as I know right wing news when I see it. And I'd be happy to, you know, if you want far right news, you go to OAN. You want far left news, you go to the hill. You want, you know, center, right? CNN.
Anyone downright absurdity go to Alex Jones and Joe Rogan. Let me start on Joe Rogan. I saw some, you know, just what happened to him? Why? He got money and he moved to Texas.
Like, it's so weird. It's so weird how somebody could 180 like that. You know, a complete 180. Dude, Texas is the Doctor Pepper of states. I can tell you that right now.
Hey. The cult following for that state is downright ridiculous. Well, and Texas is kind of funny in that way because it's another state that, like, they have is it no income tax? No state income tax. So Joe Rogan got is a 100,000,000 Yeah.
In total. So they have that going for them, but everything else, they're like super restrictive on personal freedom. But hey. Hey. No state income tax.
So yeah. It's like people, you gotta look at all the issues here. Can't just hone in on one thing and be like, oh, this is my place. I had a friend from, when I worked when I worked at In N Out. His, family wanted to move to Texas and they went there to go check the place out and it happened right when they had that major, cold spell Yeah.
And shut down the entire grid. Yeah. And they're like, nope. We're we're gonna stay here. Dude, and it happens year after year because they're not built for, you know, some of the extreme winter stuff we've been having.
And more people are flocking there. Yeah. And the pipes aren't buried deep enough, so you're you know, next thing you know, your basement's flooded in the middle of winter. Be terrible. Terrible.
Okay. Anyway, I I said that we were gonna avoid political stuff and I I guess cute winter boots is politic. That's funny, but that's political. I was very nervous when he showed me the phrase, Michael, what does that mean? That's why I was treading lightly.
Yeah. You had me scared and it was just, oh, you know, standing up against government policies. The person's post was just about, hey, is there anything going on on the 29th January, hashtag cute winter boots or something like that. Oh, okay. And See what showed up all the comments were like, get out of Idaho.
Go back to California where you belong. Hate that. I all of the liberals I know were born and raised here, everybody. That's what I talk about quite a lot of my friends too. I'm like, every liberal that I've met here is from here.
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I've yet to meet somebody who in the last 4 years moved here from elsewhere and is is a liberal. You know? I've met plenty of, like, you know, my neighbors and stuff that that moved in, you know, clearly.
They fly the flags, you know? Nice people, my neighbors. Oh, for sure. Even if I agree with the flags they fly. And judge a bug by the way.
With. Yeah. But yeah. I I don't know. I this whole leave, get out.
Because I've had people say that to me a lot. And I'm like, no, you get out. I was here way before you. And I was You get asking one of my friends who's also a Twitch streamer too. I'm like, hey.
You just went to Iceland for 6 days. Did anybody there say, hey. Get out of our country? Leave. No.
Not at all. I know. I don't know why that's the go to. If you don't, I could get out. It's like, no.
No. There is not one way of thinking in any place. You know, we've talked about this plenty of times. There are lots of hardcore right wing people in California. Tons of them.
Go to Eastern California and roll around through the desert. The farther south you go too, it's Yeah. San Diego. Yeah. That is that is a red area.
Carl's dad. San Diego. Yeah. That whole area, Orange County, definitely. Look at the way that the voter registration plays out.
It's like Idaho. You know, I talked about the voter registration numbers here. You know, it's not what people would think. You know, there's anyway, let's just move along. Yeah.
My bad. My bad for bringing this whole topic on your show. I blame peaches. Peaches, bro. Don't don't don't don't say that.
Don't say that. He did it. I don't want Jay to, you know, have a meeting with me tomorrow. He was bringing me left wing phrases to share on air. Cute winter boots.
That was my next break. I was gonna have that chat GPT generate a list. Good morning, and welcome to the Victor Will program. Got peaches in the house here. That's right.
More more political talk. Yeah. Thanks for, turning the show political peaches. I mean, you already did by the time I got here because you were talking about the price of eggs and going off about people, that's the new barometer, the new trendy thing to do is, well, let's find out how much a carton of eggs are. Well, yeah.
I just wanna remind people that, that is not a good way to keep track of prices of items. That was like one of the dumbest things back when they first roast, like the the prices of eggs roast the first time. All these radio stations in LA were going to these different grocery stores and taking selfies and going, like, look at the price of eggs right now. $10 for a whole carton. It's like, is that that down bad for content?
I mean, you could walk into a grocery store and take a picture of any item, and it's going to be expensive. Right. A bottle of ranch too. Like what you just told me, what you talked about during that break. Well, I determined though it's it's got eggs in it.
Oh. You know, because of mayonnaise. Gotcha. Yeah. That's a great brand.
Heckman's. Heckman's is the best. Yeah. I I'm really thinking it's about time to just check out, like, go off the grid, go on vacation. How about visiting some of the, most dangerous tourist attractions, peaches?
Are you down to go to dangerous places? I mean, I would too. I mean, I did, as long as I'm, like, obeying the rules, I I feel like I'd be fine. Okay. What about Mount Everest?
Would you wanna go visit that? But see, I'm not climbing Mount Everest. That's part of the part of the deal to visit it. I think the danger is like, okay, there could be someone who can shank you at any time. No.
We're Yeah. How much money it costs to climb Mount Everest? $15,000? We're not doing that. And you might die.
Yeah. You walk past frozen dead bodies. It's covered in frozen poop. Frozen frozen dookie everywhere. You've also got dead bodies all over the place.
Yeah. Who are the people that have to carry those dead bodies off the mountain? They don't. They, they don't leave them. Yeah.
They just leave them down. You'd roll them. I don't know if it's that easy peaches. They just, okay. Well, it's not good to ride up here.
All right. You're from California ever been to a death valley? No. Cause I've, I've heard how bad it is and how, you know, unbearably hot it is. And I went, maybe I don't want to go there and suffer.
Yeah. I think think I drove through it. Because isn't isn't that where they have the giant thermometer on the side of the road? Probably. I remember seeing that.
It's I think it's the hottest place ever recorded. It's like 140. Yeah. Something like that. There's another place, in Ethiopia called the Danakil Desert.
And, that sounds horrible. Yeah. They've they've got that. No. So in addition to it just being really hot, they've also got, lakes made of lava, sulfur springs, geysers.
It's kinda like if Yellowstone was, in the desert. I bet it smells great. Oh, yeah. Dude, nothing like the sulfur smell, you know. I was watching this video.
Roar and eggs. Speaking of eggs, everybody. I was watching this video of this influencer. He's like I went to old Delhi, India just so you don't have to and the footage there is horrible. There's people that aggressively try to scam you all the time.
And like, there's people he copied 1 guy in video that accused him of breaking his camera because he bumped into him and you saw the guy just full on break the camera himself and go, he did it, he did it, and then wanted 200 rupees. Wow. One of those places you need dash cam at all times. Oh, yeah. Strap one to yourself.
Definitely. Would you go visit, Chernobyl? No. No? Isn't it full of radiation?
I I think it's fine now. No. Isn't it? There's still radiation there for sure. Yeah.
Let's see. Decades on the area remains contaminated in an area spanning 30 kilometers around the plant is considered the exclusion zone. One of the most radioactively contaminated areas on earth, but that doesn't stop curious tourists from paying a visit. Of course not. There's tons of people that go there.
Look at the white people in horror movies. Let's move into this house that has a demon. I gotta say, Peaches, the phrase happy National Emo Day doesn't even make sense. Right? It's not a National Emo Day anymore.
That was December 19th. Yeah. That popped up on my on, I don't know, my Facebook or something like that. And I was like, sure. Why not change the show up for 2 hours and put on the whiniest vocals known to man?
Yeah. I think the, image you made should have said, like, well, I guess it's National Emo Day or you can't call it happy National Emo Day Cause you know, emo is all about, sorry, emo fans. Do my pants look too loose? I don't like my hair covering my face, but I have that specific haircut where it does like old Jade photos. So peaches threw together a playlist for national emo day.
We were talking about our alt station alt 101. You should download the app. If you're into emo stuff, because Jade was heavily involved with creating the station. There's tons of emo stuff on there. I I I told you off the air, it's like dealing with divorced parents.
Like, you want the regular alt sound and he wants like Jade 101 where it's all emo and it is me me me in between trying to figure out what the best sound is for you. So that's why I'm just giving you guys all the songs I think of. And then we just yell at each other about all of them. Exactly. Yeah.
Exactly. That's the way that it should be. So looking at this list here of emo songs. Now some of these, I don't know if I'd call them emo songs, Peaches, like Evanescence bring me to life. That's not an emo song.
Go look at that video that that girl that you posted. Oh, well, those were emo girls. Exactly. Thank you. For sure.
Rest of my my case is rested. But I don't think I'd call that an emo song. Emo's got a it's like a certain tone. And actually, if you ask like a real emo nerd Right. This whole list they'd say wasn't emo.
That's too technical. I don't care. I really if there's an emo elitist like Jade, forget it. You know, this is just the I think he overall celebration of the holiday. Yeah.
I think he would have considered most of this stuff emo. I just you know. There's one song from him on that list. I'm not sure if death in December. No.
No. No. Not that one. Oh, no. You didn't put them on here.
Why didn't you play that on National Emo Day? Because I played it as my pick of the day. Remember? Oh. We talked about that for, like, 8 minutes and then we played his sappiest song.
Okay. So you just didn't put it on this list. Well, there was one that was, like, Letterkenny not Letterkenny. It was, like, blind letters. Letter kills.
Letter kills. That's what it is. That's the song that he wanted me to play. And then I was talking about it with a few of my friends. I showed them the list.
They're like, why is that song on there? That's not emo. All right. Let's check it out. What's it called here?
Don't believe. I had to add that one to the library because of him. Okay. Let's check it out. It sounds like, you know, Jade's band kinda did back in the day.
It's pretty rocking, you know, tone wise. So for my ears, I'd I'd say sure this is an emo song. You know, it's not super whiny. It's like when the emos are having fun. This is what they sound like.
Was you considering But that's like black veil brides to me. Black veil brides does not sound email. They sound like Nickelback to my ears. Is that weird? No, you're, you're kind of right.
Like Andy, Andy Bierseck has a deeper voice. He has a deep voice and the way he sings, he kind of reminds me of the kind of remind me of Chad Kroger. No offense, black Phil brides fans. That's just how my ears work. What else do we got on this list that I was looking at?
I mean, I think Pierce avail people might call him scream. Oh, you know, cause there's a little more screaming, you know? Well, it's, it should be done, but it's what old people call all metal. Yeah. You know?
That's why it's done. It is a specific genre. Paramore misery business. I suppose that is emo, ain't it? It's been a while since I listened.
I can't believe you played that song on K Bear. Let's check it out here. You know what? We talk about it all the time. The playlist is catered for the people because of the popular popular track.
Do I care for Paramore at all? Absolutely not. Alright. I I could see playing this on KBEAR actually. It's probably big enough I could put it in rotation too, to be honest.
It's so funny. I just asked Chad GPT what bands would you consider 100% emo? My Chemical Romance, which many people have said before. No. These are men.
Dustin Emo. Dustin Emo. You know? Dustin Emo. Dashboard Confessional, Taking Back Sunday, Sunny Day Real Estate, Jimmy Eat World is also on this list.
Jimmy Eat World? Yeah. As an emo band? Especially their earlier albums like Clarity and their mega hit The Middle. Alright.
Brand new, The Get Up Kids, Hawthorne Heights, Paramore at number 9, American Football, Saves the Day, and Thursday. Okay. Yeah. See, all all of those sound pretty emo to me. I think, you know, there's some of the more metal tinged emo that Jade really likes that, you know, the emo purists would say is not emo because, you know, it doesn't sound like dashboard confessional or something.
Somebody was trying to tell me, sleep theory is emo too. Sleep theory? Mhmm. I mean, you know, there most of the newer bands that are blowing up really big definitely have emo elements. You know, we're clearly inspired by emo Or in the time bad omens or motionless and wide.
We're we're in that time where people were influenced by early bring you the horizon. Yeah. Because that was 2008. That was 17 years ago. Totally.
So, I mean, most of the new bands definitely have some kind of emo influence going on. But, yeah. Anyway Well, that was my 2 hour playlist that was on the fly. 2 hours of emo. This is why I don't listen to Peaches Pit Party.
You're a victor for politics, me for crappy music. You're the one who brought the politics to me. You just started with the egg prices. You broke my seats. You broke my chair.
Put away the shirts. Put away the merch. Alright. Let's get back to a topic we were discussing earlier, and that would be bands that everyone seems to love or artists that everyone seems to love, but that you just can't get into. 208-535-1015, the number to call if you'd like to discuss an artist with me.
And we talked earlier about Dave Matthews Band. That was one mentioned online that, like yeah. I don't know about everybody loving them. There is no artist really that I could think of that everybody loves. You know, I mentioned Taylor Swift, you know, most popular artist in the world, and I just don't get it.
I mean, I'm not gonna say her music's terrible or that she sucks or, you know, those kind of comments. I just don't get it. I don't get why it's so big. That's my personal taste. We also talked about, jelly roll.
You know, I can respect everything jelly roll does. Certainly, a massive artist in the country, rock, pop. I mean, like, all worlds has gotten to be extremely popular in the last couple years, but I yeah. I I just don't connect with the music. And even this one that somebody named on here, the Foo Fighters.
Peaches and I have talked about that band before on air. I'm gonna go with Nirvana if I wanna hear some Dave Grohl music. The Foos have a few songs that I really like, but I don't know. Do I ever throw them on in my spare time? I don't know.
I don't know. K Bear, you are live on the show. Keep that in mind. Who's this? My name is Brandon.
Brandon, what you got for a band or artist everyone loves, but, you just can't can't get into it. Honestly, I would have to say Metallica. Metallica. Alright. Yeah.
Like like, so, like, overrated. You know? And we've talked about Metallica and the big four before. If I'm gonna go with 1 of the big four, personally, I would throw on Slayer. Metallica has, you know, a handful of songs that I really, really like.
They're an amazing live show. But, yeah, there are certainly lots of bands I like better than Metallica. Yeah. For sure. So But also, I I I had a I was wondering if I could, get a song.
I've been learning kinda how to play it, play the intro to it, and all that stuff. And, I'm really into the song right now. Alright. What is it? Schism.
Schism. Schism is a great song. It's very satisfying to play. It is. It is.
Like, I I recently bought a bass, and, one of my friends has been teaching me a couple of riffs. And, I'm like, first song I wanna learn is schism, so I've been, kinda grinding on that. Nice. I don't know a lot of cover music, but there are some tool riffs that I've learned how to play, and schism is definitely one of the funnest. It just it feels good to play it.
So Yeah. I'm I'm still trying to smooth it out. Like, I like, when I do that hammer on thing, it doesn't sound very smooth. So I'm trying to figure that out. Well, dude, if you're just new to the instrument, that that takes a little bit of time, and it'll just get better and better with more practice, man.
That's what I'm hoping. Well, if you ask a massive tool fan to play tool, yeah, I'll I'll play that for you here in just a minute. Alright. Thank you. Alright.
Thanks, man. Peace. Yep. See you. Alright.
Continuing on talking about artists that everyone loves that you just can't get into. I think that people online overestimate how many people love something because they've got Phish on here. Phish is definitely not a band that everybody loves. That's a, you know, niche audience there for Fish. Like, I would go to a Fish show because I know it's gonna be like a spectacle.
Lots of flashing lights. Yeah. Twilight walking around in Vegas. Flashing lights. So, I I go to a fish show, but I don't know if I've ever thrown on fish and just listen to them.
Should I, as a a prog fan, am I missing out? It's kinda like the grateful dead. I've given them many shots, but I just can't get into it. K. Kayberry, you're live on the show.
Please turn me down in the background. Who's this? Stewart. Stewart, what you got for a band everybody loves, but you just can't get into? I just can't get into 9 inch nails.
9 inch nails. My goodness. You know, I I'm I'm sure they're a band not everybody likes, but, you know, I I like hard music and I like a healthy mix of electronic music, but I just can't get into them. Interesting, man. Interesting.
I mean, I'm a fanatic, so, I'm the wrong guy to talk to on that one. But, yeah, it was kind of funny speaking of 9 inch nails, over the weekend, my daughter and I were watching music videos on YouTube and somehow we got, oh, she mentioned she had just saw the closer video for the first time. So I was talking with her about, when I got the closure, VHS set for Christmas and my dad walked in when I was watching the happiness and slavery video, which I can't describe on air. What happens in this video? It's very gruesome and, also contains full on, male nudity.
So I was like, yeah. I you know, I'd show you this video, but I'm sure you can't find it on YouTube. Yeah. People are worried about the the library. It was on YouTube completely unedited.
I could not believe it, and it had been there for 15 years. I was so blown away because, Yeah. Again, if you know, I'm not gonna encourage people to go watch that if you're at work, certainly don't, but I could not believe that was on YouTube and it didn't have any kind of login if you wanna watch this. So alright, Stewart. Appreciate the call, man.
Yeah. No problem. Peace. Alright. Well, we we may continue on with this.
I mean, the people online are now starting to name artists that it seems like everybody likes, but I personally can't understand. Like, Drake? Drake's music is not appealing to me at all. His songs are so boring and, you know, it's just up all of that, you know, pitch correction and auto tune voice. I don't know.
I just think it's really, really not good. So I don't know. Very weird. Anyway, I'll be back in a second. Man.
Show's already almost over? What's going on around here? I'm I'm not complaining aside from, could have maybe got a little bit more work done during the show, but, yeah, it's Monday. Get caught up eventually. Hope it's going good for you, though, so far.
Alright. What is a product you swore by your whole life, but have only recently learned that it's essentially just snake oil? This is the kind of thread you don't even wanna get into on a show because you could have somebody saying, I think this product is snake oil, and then somebody else going, I swear by it to change my life. Alright. Anti jet lag pills.
What what are those? So this person said I had a friend who religiously took anti jet lag pills. I asked what they were, and he showed me. He took one with a full glass of water every 2 hours while flying in long flights. All they did was get you to drink water.
People get dehydrated on long plane flights, so they work, but it was really just water that helped. They've gotta have something in them. Right? I don't know. I don't make very many vacation trips that involve a flight long enough to dig into anti jet lag pills, but I wanna know what's in them.
What's up, peaches? I just saw they announced 6 of the artists for the warptor lineup. Okay. Let me see if I can predict them. Bling Corn 80 2?
Nope. Now are they all nostalgic? Yes. For the most part. Okay.
We just talked about one of the band's songs off the air when talking about alt tracks. Okay. Well, you're asking me to remember something from a few minutes ago, Peach. You gotta remember bro. Oh, Pennywise?
Yeah. Okay. There you go. That was your hint. So Pennywise, just read them.
I don't know. Simple Plan, Pennywise, Miss May I. I don't know about this band called Dance Hall Crashers. I guess I guess they're reuniting. Okay.
I'm not familiar with them. Chan Chandler Layton. Okay. And then Bowling for Soup. Okay.
I'm gonna put my excitement level up on a scale of what it did. Well, I know falling in reverse, I think, is set to headline the entire thing. That makes sense. Last time I saw them at Warped Tour, they kinda owned the place. So I don't know, though.
I don't know if I wanna go see a falling in reverse show right now because I just have a feeling it's gonna be one of those deals where Ronnie Radke Goes off. Just starts babbling on stage and I don't know. He has gotten to be very insufferable. He's gonna pull in the last year. He's gonna pull an Aaron Lewis.
I mean, he's already kind of getting to be way worse than Aaron Lewis. John Cooper from skillet. That type of move. No comparison. Like, I mean, as far as the social media behavior because I've talked to Ronnie multiple times, and he was always very nice.
And he always told me, you know, that's just a character I play online. Like, dude, your online character is is getting exhausting, dude. Like, I don't know. I don't know, man. We'll see.
I guess him and Soraya mutually parted ways and now there's all these people hitting up his DMs. Like, all these women are like, hi, I'm Nicole. And he's like, he's screenshotting their profiles and putting them on his stories saying, hey, stop it. You know, get some help. Quit going in my DMs.
What what does he think is gonna happen? You know? I'm just like, if ladies have to put up with the, you know, unsolicited type of messages that guys send them, get over it, Ronnie. Right? Oh, I've got girls messaging me.
Like, he again, Will just he's starting to complain about everything. And I've had it with people who are complaining about everything. You better insult him at the, podcast title of this episode. See if he'll retaliate against you. Which I hope not because he, you know, he's a good friend of ours.
I mean, we like I said, we've had multiple interviews. It always goes great. We play their music because I know it's very popular, but I don't know. I'm just getting kinda just burnout on his, online shtick. And I think it's getting to the point where it's like, dude, you're driving away your fans.
What are you doing? You know? Come on. You know, turning these things around is a lot harder than digging yourself into a hole. You know?
So anyway My bad for, completely altering the spray. Yeah. Yo. It's coming in. Just change the subject.
No. I was just, I was just winging it pretty much trying to find something to talk about, and I was talking about, products that people say are, essentially snake oil even though they Oh, yeah. Yeah. Believed in believed in them for a long time. I did see this question.
I was trying to figure out what what else could there be. Some of these I've never heard of like a project or a product called FEMINAX, and they say it's Ibuprofen in a pink package and costs 3 times as much. I'm sure there's a lot of medications out there, prescription pills, not even prescription pills, just, over the counter pills that you could buy that are just another product with a different name. Yeah. Yeah.
And I mean, I know when you're buying, like, name brand, you're you're definitely gonna pay more, but I don't know. There might be something special about that one in particular. Now this person is getting into, like, home remedies, and home remedies can get pretty wacky. Their, grandmother would, put mustard plasters on their chest. What is is do you guys just coat their chest with mustard?
What is a mustard plaster? I'm glad my parents aren't wacky. I'm just I'm sorry. I read the I see these people's stories and I go, you know what? I'm thankful for my family.
Okay. It's an ancient home remedy made oh, come on. Home remedy made from, mustard seed powder paste. The paste is wrapped in fabric and applied to the skin usually on the chest. Yeah.
That to me sounds sounds like it's not gonna do anything. I don't know. It's a good way to torture your children. Do you like the smell of mustard? Yeah.
Which would you rather have? Vick's VapoRub or just mustard smeared all over your chest? Gonna go with Vick's. It it smells pretty good. It's kinda refreshing.
Sure. It's better than mustard. Thank you again for tuning in to the Victor Wilt show. This program's a production of riverbend media group To contact the show or for more information, hit us up at riverbendmediagroup.com.
