#0311 - Kid Rock Shirtless Again and Society Is Crumbling - 02/18/2026
Snow day! Well, I don't know if it's a snow day. I mean, it's snowing outside, but the roads seem to be in decent shape. I'd still be cautious.
You know, give yourself a little bit of extra time getting to where you need to be. Hopefully it will melt off a little bit. I suppose I could open my old email here and see if we've got any skoo closures today. Um, don't seem to see anything about that popping up. So sorry, kids.
By getting the information, I'll let you know. What are they saying about the weather today? I wasn't very happy to wake up to more snow. But, yeah, I know we need it.
We need the snow. Let's look at the hourly forecast for the day. All right, it should slow down by like 9am. Maybe another little burst around 11 or so. And then hopefully we're done with it.
Um, well, well, looks like a potential for some tomorrow too. In the middle of the night, just in time for me to wake up and have to deal with it in the morning. I didn't deal with it too much. I just, you know, swept the vehicles off.
But depending on how things go, maybe I will finally get to try out my new snow blower. I was looking at my credit card bill yesterday when I was paying some bills and I'm like, what happened here? I mean, oh yeah, you know, had to help pay for my daughter's wedding, bought a snow blower, bought a carpet shampoo or miscellaneous this and that. Okay, all right. Get it caught up eventually. It'll be fine. But anyhow, morning to you.
Appreciate you listening to the program. Hope that you're doing well and hopefully Wednesday goes by quick. We just crush it down and it's over and done with because I'm ready to as always be back home. Home sounding pretty good on a snowy day. What's up everybody? It's Wednesday. Wish it was Friday.
I think I say that every day that's not Friday because it's always true. All right, let's see here. Someone asked on Reddit for anyone who grew up poor. What was your idea of a luxury? All right, let me think because I'm not going to say I grew up like super poor. But I mean, we were poor.
What did I think would be a luxury? I don't even know. I'm still waking up people.
Let's see what other folks thought though, because this might make you feel a little bit better about yourself. All right, this person said when people had homes with stairs. All right, we had a basement at my house growing up. So we had stairs. I mean, I would assume they're not talking about like front steps. They're talking about stairs inside of the house. Now, if you had, you know, the stairs you walk in and there's stairs that like loop around and go to the top floor. Yeah, that would be luxurious to me. All right, let's see. Someone says I couldn't understand how families went on vacation during summer break in an airplane to another state.
How? Yeah, we didn't do a lot of vacationing when I was a kid. We'd go camping. Yeah.
I mean, my grandma would fly me and my siblings to Minnesota. That was about it. That was about it as far as summer vacation.
You know, I never went to Disneyland as a kid. Occasionally we'd hit like Lagoon. That would be a big trip.
That'd be a great time. I didn't, I didn't visit a lot of places till I got older for sure. Let's see here. Pizza.
All right, see, see, count yourself. Blast. Some people, pizza was a luxury.
I know when I first moved out of my own pizza was definitely a luxury. Lots of ramen going down. I hate ramen. I mean, it's not terrible, but I just, I had my fair share.
What's the ordering food without looking at the prices? Yeah, that's a luxurious time. Let's see here. Name brand cereal. That could be a luxury. I remember eating lots of store brand cereal. Some of it's just fine, but some brands of store brand stuff just don't cut it like Doritos.
All right. They're not any store brand Doritos style chips that even compare. Like Cheetos, you could probably find some that compare. You know, potato chips, sure, barbecue. All right, but Doritos, it's some about the texture.
I don't know what kind of alien food product they're injecting into those chips, but Doritos just, you know, cannot be matched. Hot water that didn't run out. I mean, I probably need to get that hot water heater looked at.
I mean, I don't have a major problem with hot water running out, but you got to deal with maintenance people. Oh yeah, dishwasher. I remember when I first got a dishwasher, I was like, wow, this is crazy. And then when you get used to using a dishwasher and you break it, it really sucks. It really sucks being without a dishwasher. So I would say that's a luxury, and I think it's great.
It's a fantastic item to have. Oh man, see, and I didn't even know the luxury that was a snow blower until a number of years ago when JD gave me a sweet deal on one. Now it's like, you know, impossible to go without a snow blower. Oh, that hurts today. I don't even want to think about busting out the old shovel. Yikes. Oh, this one's sad getting to play at the arcade instead of watching others.
I don't know. When I get to go to the arcade, it felt like a luxury. That's for sure. Oh, Vianetta ice cream. You remember those? I actually saw one of those for sale maybe a year or two ago.
I think it was a grocery outlet. Bought one. It was like, this isn't good. Give me them Biscoff ice cream bars. That's what I'm talking about. All right. I'll keep digging. I'll keep digging for other crap to talk about. Think I need maybe a little more coffee. All right, I'm just babbling.
I'll be right back. Well, I was just chatting with JD. He was out on I-15, said it's pretty nasty out there. So if you're traveling, please be safe.
Give yourself a little bit of extra time. Be cautious of others. Stay away from other vehicles on the road. Just don't be an idiot. And hopefully everybody will make it through the morning. Okay. Oh, stupid weather. All right. Let's see. Smells we should all recognize as immediate danger.
There's probably a good list to throw out there. I want you guys to stay safe. Want you to be fine. All right. Well, let's let's dig in. Cat pee. Now I know it's disgusting, but what's dangerous about that? Oh, okay. It could be residue of a meth lab.
So yeah. Maybe you're checking out a new house you want to purchase something like that. Would they have like 20 cats in here? Maybe get somebody in there to test that. Let the cops show up. Do some investigating. Yeah.
You don't want to be breathing in chemical residue. Geez. Oh, let's see.
If you're out in the woods and you randomly smell bananas back away, carefully and quietly as you can, angry bees release a fight pheromone that smells like bananas to us. Okay. Well, that's really good to know. Because around here, it's not like we have bananas just growing. So if you're out in the woods and you smell bananas, don't just assume, oh, somebody, somebody's having a nice snack. I've never heard that before in my life.
I guess don't eat bananas in the woods either. Wouldn't that trigger that same response and bees back at you? Yeah, they're like, oh, somebody's out there.
They want to fight. You're just mowing down a banana. It's a bad day. Okay.
What else do we have? The smell of melting electrical wires. Yeah. If you smell that burning electrical smell, I don't know. Quickly try to identify it. Get somebody out to check things quickly. JD, I smell something not good. Please come over and help. Help me identify the burning electrical smell.
Let's see here. A lot of people are describing that electrical smell as a fishy smell. And I've never thought of it as a fishy smell. Though we did have here in the studio, come to think of it, there was some piece of equipment that was malfunctioning and I think it was a battery and it smelled horrible. Like we thought there was something dead in here somewhere.
So maybe a fishy smell would be the way to describe it. I don't know. Let's see here. If somebody's not on a keto diet and they smell like they are. Huh. I don't know what that smells like.
Let's see. A combination of a horse stall petting zoo and coffee grounds. That's male bear pee. Okay. Yeah. I mean, I've been in the woods before and smelled something that smelled pretty terrible. And then it just kind of disappeared and I was like, well, that's it. That's either a bear or big foot. Thankfully, I'd never found out which.
Let's see. If a pill smells like almonds, it's cyanide. Somebody, hey, take this. I guess you should sniff any kind of medication somebody gives you.
Yikes. If it smells like cut grass and nobody's been cutting grass nearby. It's foskeen. I don't know how you say that word, but some kind of gas. Some kind of gas. Sulfur smell inside your home and Jade hasn't farted there. You could have a gas leak.
Okay. Rotting fish. If you're out hiking bears, they grizzly bears in particular. Reek of rotting fish, especially in the fall when they're eating nothing but fish. See, I thought like that garbage smell rotting meat smell.
I always thought that was how you identified a bear. All right. Well, I don't want to think about smells anymore. All right. Wednesday. Let's move them by at a decent pace. Not complaining yet.
Not quite yet. Boy, you want to talk about complaining. I was in the ice nine kills subreddit the other day. And there was this big thread where the fans were just lining about, you know, all the merch, the band is constantly churning out and their music becoming too radio friendly.
And they've got this new song coming out. What's it called here? It's embargoed right now. Can't play it for you till tomorrow.
It's called twisting the knife. It's going to be the song at the end of the new screen movie. Now, my friends at Octane, they got the like exclusive to play it a little bit early. So, you know, some fans have heard it already. And I thought because I've heard this song that this group of fans on Reddit were going to wine and like really hate this song if they thought that the other songs were extremely radio friendly, but they seem to be giving it stellar reviews, which I've found to be pretty interesting. I mean, it's to me, it sounds like ice nine kills. It's probably the most radio friendly song I've heard from them.
That's what I told the label. I'm like, maybe radio will actually play this one. But I don't know. I guess the fans are digging it. I don't know. We'll wait and see till it's been officially released tomorrow.
You know what people are saying in the sub there. And then when I was talking to JD, he was asking me, because he called again after I played that Judas Priest song. He's been dying to get me to play forever. He was asking me about good shows around here. And I'm like, man, you know, I don't know what we've got as far as right in East Idaho rock shows. You know, haven't heard much from the arena, the mountain America Center. Haven't heard much from Portland. I think they rebranded Portland. If I'm going to have to look up what the what they're calling it now seemed like it was something like the Portland event complex or something.
I don't know. Let's choose an event type here on kbear.fm and go to concert slash rock. Now I do know there's a country show this weekend going to take Beck and her daughter to check out Ian Munzik. But that's not a rock show. Let's see here.
All of these shows at K Bear dot FM seem to be in Boise or Salt Lake City. Let's keep scrolling. Maybe there's something. Did peaches not put foreigner on the website?
I guess that for peaches that wasn't rock enough. I believe that shows going down March 25th. Foreigner at the mountain America Center unless something happened. Okay, there's hairball, which is like a hairband tribute show. So that's I mean, it's a rock show, but it's it's not any original bands. Okay.
Yeah. Boise Salt Lake. Could we get some rock shows around here please? Please something something at all. There have been some really good shows announced recently though. Poppy announced a show yesterday. I think it's going down in July at the Union Event Center in Salt Lake.
Definitely got to go check out Poppy. Oh, they did announce Brit Floyd at the Mountain America Center, another tribute band. But I've heard as far as Pink Floyd tribute bands go that they're really good. So I think I'd go see that one. I did see what was that other Pink Floyd tribute band that came to Portland if I don't remember their name. But they were good.
They were good. Peaches hates a tribute band show. I think it's fun to hear the songs live. So I tend to go to those kind of things. But that's just me. All right. Well, no news on that front other than yeah, Brit Floyd.
Forgot that was announced yesterday. So if you're into Pink Floyd, that should be pretty cute. You know, I really hope the tool ain't lying and they put out some new music next year. And I hope they do their little sphere residency, even though they don't probably have to sell some organs to be able to go see a show like that. I would imagine tickets are going to be very steep. But tool at the sphere in Vegas, that'd be sick.
That would be awesome. All right. What's floating around the internet this morning? Okay, this could be an interesting thread.
I probably should have read through it, but I was a little distracted for a minute there. What is a red flag in a person that you actually find attractive? You know, they always talk about toxic traits to avoid. But do you have a toxic trait guilty pleasure?
Okay, this person says there are they find it strangely attractive when someone is a little bit obsessed with their work or passion, even to the point of being slightly unavailable. It shows drive even if it's annoying. Well, I guess it'll give you a little bit of free time. I tell you, JD was yelling at me just a bit ago. Hey, you've been playing your guitar. I'm like, I've been shampooing carpets, man, but I'm gonna get back to it. Just trying to get my house in a when I play the guitar.
And maybe I'll maybe I'll be driven again to make some new music. You never know. All right, red flags in people that you actually find attractive.
This person says introverted and doesn't want to go out. Is that a red flag? I mean, it doesn't sound like a toxic trait to me. I mean, I guess I wouldn't say I'm introverted. You know, I'm I talk to people in public.
All right, I'm not a shut in. And I like going out sometimes. But I tell you what, when when my house is nice and cozy, like a day like today, it's all snowy outside. Think I want to go out somewhere. No, no, I just want to kick back on that couch.
Oh, I'm not even going to think about how comfortable it would be if I was in bed right now. All right, I don't think that's that's toxic. All right, this person says a little cleanliness not too much. See, is cleanliness a toxic trait? I guess if it was like ridiculous.
But I think I'd agree a little cleanliness is nice. Let you know you want it. Yeah, I I don't mind that at all. I'm glad I've got a lady who's a little bit clingy. All right, let's see.
What else do we got here? Um, I would not even blink an eye if a person had never been in a romantic relationship before. Sometimes things simply do not line up. Sometimes it is hard to find somebody who is compatible with you if you've made it to the third date, you are doing everything right. Um, I don't think it's a toxic trait to have never been in a romantic relationship before.
Yeah, that just happens to some people. Now, and everybody's got to have their first shot, you know, I do think it's good to have been in a relationship before because you learn a lot. Like that's why I always say, you know, you 18 year olds who are getting married, you're nuts, you're crazy, don't do it. Wait till you know somebody really well. And you need some life experience too, because you're going to learn a lot in a long term relationship.
And then, you know, when that one fails, you can make your next one so much better, you know, and you learn traits to look for in people that are going to match up with you good, you know, because I don't know when you hook up with people with when you're young, they're just people are totally different in their early twenties versus like thirties. Now, let's see. This person says they find a jealous and slightly possessive partner very arousing. I think if they aren't jealous at all, that's not good. You know, I think you want someone who if you want to be in a serious relationship, someone who can be a little bit jealous, you don't want to psycho, you know, by any means.
But you know, it's kind of like that cleanest thing, you know, you want somebody who you know is really India. All right, let's see here. Maybe it's just too early. These people are babbling on worse than me. These are really, really long posts here. Let's see. This person says I would not date someone who's exclusively on bad terms with their exes.
Not talking terms. But friends with X and will introduce me green flag. If you have a single crazy ex red flag. Now, that's I disagree with this one because it I think everybody's got some kind of crazy ex, right? For sure. And I don't know.
You don't have to be friends with your exes. You don't. I just saying I disagree with this person. And again, this is their personal opinion. Me, no, you don't need to be friends with your exes. I couldn't care less. Well, probably don't want to deal with your exes unless absolutely necessary. All right.
Kind of like my own exes. All right. Deal with them when it has to be done.
All right. When they're, you know, business with the kids or something, you got to deal with that. Speaking of that, my daughter better message me back. Speaking of kids, kids can be a real pain sometimes.
Bad communicators. System of a down and chop suey. I got to say, I do hear that song a little bit too often. It's Becca's alarm. So every time I hear that song, I'm like, I got to go to work.
Oh geez. I'm a little bit running behind time to get out of bed. Wake up. Oh, still a good song.
Still a good song, but it triggers the, oh geez. Hurry, hurry and get up. Response out of me.
Oh man. Let's see here up. If you're just getting going for the day.
I don't know if it's still snowing outside because I have the blinds closed and I don't like to see it when it's happening, but I was snowing on my way in, had calls from listeners about snowy conditions on the roadways. Make sure to go ahead and give yourself some extra time. Be safe.
Stay away from other people. And sorry kids, as far as I'm aware, I don't see anything about any school closures. I think it's going to be a year without snow days. At least that helps. I don't get a snow day.
I got to be here rain or shine or snow yapping on the radio, telling you about the crap weather or whatever else might be going on. All right. So, you know, I've been trying to motivate myself to make healthier decisions.
All right. Because you feel lousy sometimes when you overdo it a bit. In the holidays, they can kick that into gear.
Found a thread here. For those who are sober, what's your go-to drink? And, you know, one thing I've discovered when you're trying to avoid the booze, having something delicious to drink in its place is very helpful. I like, you know, non-alcoholic seltzers, you know, like the polar brand or whatever.
You can even like, throw a little splash of orange juice in there. Pretty good stuff. Let's see what people are saying in here. You know, maybe I could find some delicious drinks to try out. Oh, of course, there's the hydro homies. Water. Just water. All right.
Yeah, water's fine, but it's not very exciting. Okay. We get it. We get it that you guys love water.
Okay. They're saying Guinness 0.0. Yeah, most non-alcoholic beer is garbage and terrible. I will say the Black Butte Porter non-alcoholic.
Really good. I haven't tried Guinness 0.0 because I'm not really a big fan of Guinness. You know, it's fine, but it doesn't have any carbonation. You know, it's just like an instant coffee shooter with no caffeine. It's just not my jam.
I think I did see that there was a non-alcoholic. Oh, what's the name of it here? Fresh squeezed. This shoots.
Might have to give that a whirl. All right. Lyman Cherry Seltzer with Blueberry Mio. Hmm. Sounds like it could be tasty. I'm telling you, Seltzer, very helpful.
Very helpful. This person says iced Earl Grey tea. Okay. Not a huge tea guy. Ginger ale?
Yeah. Get yourself some of that really potent ginger beer. You know, that stuff, it's got some kick to it, some bite. If you're into like, you know, IPAs, that's a good exchange, but it is just loaded with sugar.
Just packed to the brim. Pepsi Max. I didn't think they made that anymore. Oh, Kombucha. Kombucha is a great alternative, but if you drink too much of it, it seems like it messes up your guts. It's got all them probiotics and stuff in it. I could like drink Kombucha all day, and then I'd just be whining. Oh, no, my guts. I should probably buy some Kombucha.
That'd be a good idea. And then people are talking about coffee and soda and things like that. Okay. More people chiming in with their water.
We get it. Hydro homies. Somebody already responded with water. Give me something different. All right.
It, people just naming the same things over and over. Just soda, diet coke, water. All right. Reddit. Y'all are boring. Okay. Hoping I could find something new and delicious to try.
Guess not. So I'm going to dig for some freak news. I'll be back. I seem to remember talking about this a long time ago. This must have been in litigation forever, but some guy sued Buffalo Wild Wings over their boneless chicken wings. He's like, hey, these are chicken nuggets. You shouldn't be able to call them boneless wings.
All right. You need to call them something else. Well, Buffalo Wild Wings has prevailed. A judge has allowed them to keep boneless chicken wings, boneless wings on the menu, because for 20 years, this has been an item that people are very familiar with. I don't think most people think these are actual chicken wings that they have ripped the bones out of or something like that.
And the judge's comparison was kind of funny. He said, you know, obviously people are not going to think that boneless wings are made from chicken wings, just like somebody eating chicken fingers. It doesn't think they're going to be eating severed chicken fingers, you know? That'd be pretty nasty, right? I mean, you can buy chicken feet.
I've seen them for sale. Nothing that sounds very appetizing to me, but yeah, the feet, they just hack off the little toes. Here you go. Chicken fingers. So yeah, yeah, they're not going to have to call them chicken poppers or something like that. They're still walking and call them wings.
Some people will sue for anything. All right. A U.S. Congressman claims that a crashed UFO is so big, they've built an entire building around it. This is Missouri Congressman Eric Burleson. Says he's heard reports of a crashed alien craft somewhere outside the USA that's so large it cannot be moved. He says he doesn't want to say what country it is because he heard about this in a closed setting and he wants to protect his classification level. I guess he's got high security. I guess he's not worried about saying there's a UFO so big they had to build a building around it, but can you guys in the government just get it out there?
We had Obama in the news on Monday. Oh, aliens are real. Then he back tracks on it. Oh!
Now you got this guy. That's a giant UFO if they can't move it, right? Well, anyway, I think they're just going to try to keep churning out this stuff to keep us distracted.
But I pointed it out years ago. They said they had like 4K high quality footage of the UFOs and they were going to show us. And they haven't shown us these videos. I want to see them. I want to see some awesome real UFO video. Come on, quit with the secrets already. Show us the UFOs. What else do we have here? A Tennessee couple who retired in their 30s to live permanently aboard a cruise ship reveals the total cost after 8 months.
All right. How do they retire? Were they wealthy? They said they decided to sell virtually everything they had, ditch the 9 to 5 grind and go full time on cruise ships. Now they said it cost them $10,000 a year, which, okay, that's not that much money, but you got to have the $10,000 laying around, right? Not just anybody can go, you know what? I'm going to just go live on a cruise ship. Because you've got to have income rolling in, you know? And I don't know. There have been too many stories about the norovirus outbreaks on cruise ships.
I don't think I could do it. And just being stuck on a boat and you're dealing with the same people. Oh, you know, at least at a house, you got some space. You can get away from your neighbors.
You're essentially stuck aboard a floating hotel. You know, it's got to get old. It's got to get old.
I don't know. Some people really love cruises. I've never been on one, so I can't judge. I guess I shouldn't say anything, but it just seems like a good way to get sick. And you're going to get tired of the food.
You're eating the same crap all the time. And yeah, you know, screw these guys in there. Hey, we're able to just go live on a cruise ship, you know? Only costs us $10,000 a year because we got we don't need to work.
Oh, good for you. Snowy outside, peaches said it sucked outside. So there's your weather forecast from peaches. You know, be safe on the roads. OK, give yourself extra time. Try to stay away from other vehicles.
Don't follow too closely. Because if you end up rear end in somebody, you're going to be responsible. It's your fault if you rear end somebody. But if somebody doesn't know how to drive in the snow, rear ends you.
You know what to do. Well, first call the police, then immediately call the advocates, injury attorneys, they power traffic school happens every Friday morning. Eight forty five a.m. Me and Lieutenant Crane of the Idaho State Police hanging out, answering your questions about the law last Friday show all unhinged.
It was pretty fun. So, you know, help us make it even more unhinged by calling in yourself and asking some questions. You know, peaches have gotten an argument in the life in Idaho Falls group just a couple days ago about turning red or turning right on a red light. I know this for a fact, because we've talked about it on traffic school countless times, but if there is a red arrow, you cannot turn right.
It has to be a round bulb. But boy, were there some confident people in there saying, no, there has to be a sign. So if you've gotten any arguments with friends or family or people online about traffic law, well, bet them some money. I mean, be confident before you bet money. But calling in and get the the facts.
Get the facts from the cops direct with traffic school powered by the advocates every Friday morning, only right here on this program. The Victor World Show. I hope you'll join us day after tomorrow and help us make it extra crazy. Well, if you're heading to Salt Lake City anytime soon, look for something to do. There's a new viral attraction to check out. And to me, this looks pretty cool.
Really, it's called. Himitsu Station. Somewhere near the corner of 300 South and West Temple. OK, I was wandering around that area recently. Would have been fun if I decided to walk down those stairs.
Go check this place out. So it's sort of like an escape room, they said. But it's more like an interactive live video game. They say the goal isn't necessarily to escape.
It's to collect as many points as possible throughout the experience. And it looks weird. It looks weird. It's pretty cool looking.
They've got a video you can check out about the husband and wife team that put this together over at KSLTV.com. Um. What do they say? How do they describe this? I kind of a 1980s Japanese underground design. It's got an originally created synth soundtrack.
And KSL says the space feels like the work of a sophisticated production company. And yeah, I was just thrown together by a couple wanting to do something fun for people who are bored in Salt Lake City, I guess. I would definitely go check this out. It looks pretty pretty neat here. It's located beneath the Peary in Salt Lake City downtown. So beneath the hotel there. If you want to get more information, you can go to their Instagram page. Just search for Himitsu Station.
That's H-I-M-I-T-S-U. I guess I'd better go give them a follow because these tend to be the type of things that I stumble across and then I just forget about. But there's only so much to do in Salt Lake. So maybe going and checking out this this weird thing would be pretty cool. Looks pretty neat. So glad it seems to be working good for them. Now, they said the experience is going viral.
And I would imagine now that that's getting shared all over the Internet. It will probably get busy. So I wouldn't say today is the best day to go with the way the weather and roads are. But the weekend's coming. You can feel free to call in on this one if you want.
208-535-1015. We're talking about the greatest opening song on any album of all time. I saw somebody post that. What was it? Welcome to the jungle? I think that was the post I saw. Welcome to the jungle.
Best album opener of all time. All right. Here's how these kind of things are going to work.
I'll probably post this question in the K-Bear group. And then I would imagine people are going to post a song from their favorite band. Because what I sat here and thought about the best album openers of all time is like, OK. Like every tool album has a great opener. You got, you know, Stinkfest on the Anima album.
You've got Vicarious on 10,000 Days. The Grudge on Latter Alice. And even Fear and Oculum on the latest album, Fear and Oculum. Really good song.
And I started thinking more and it's like, oh, Nine Inch Nails has some good openers. Mr. Self-Destruct. On the Downward Spiral. That's a heck of an opener. And then Somewhat Damaged on the Fragile. Also amazing opening songs. So I don't even know where I'd begin aside from just naming off all my favorite albums.
Because they all have great openers. Yeah. Acid Bath. Yeah. Both of their albums. Killer Opening Songs. We should probably play some Acid Bath on the show today. We haven't in a while. They're one of the all time greatest bands and you ain't enough people familiar with them.
They're so good. They just need to announce some tour dates that come remotely close to here. I think the closest one is Phoenix. And Phoenix is a bit of a jaunt. All right. I mean, if you can find a cheap flight, it's not too bad.
But, but. Flights are pretty pricey. Last I checked to Phoenix. So I don't know if I'll be able to make that show. They've got to eventually come to Boise or Salt Lake, right? Yeah, we'll play some Acid Bath in a minute.
But yeah, I'm going to go post this in the K-Bear group. It'll be interesting to see what y'all say is the best album opener of all time. I don't know if I could pick just one. I don't know if I could pick just one.
What? Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The song.
That's a great album opener. All right. I'm just making myself want to revamp the playlist with all my favorite songs, but I don't want to drive all of you crazy.
So we'll find something to play from Acid Bath after the break because I can do what I want. Morning peaches. Good morning. How you doing?
You know what? Snowing outside, not a fan. It's still snowing? Let me check. Yeah, take a peek.
I've kept the blinds closed because I like to keep my head in the sand. It is. Ah! Barely, but it is.
All right. Well, depending on the temperature situation, I might finally get to try out my new snow blower today. Yay! I haven't had to do that at all this year, but we'll see. We'll see. I think it's supposed to be fairly chilly today. I don't think it's going to melt off like yesterday.
The low for Friday is five. Oh! Oh!
I mean luckily Sunday, 38 with 14 is the low. Okay. Well, and it'll, you're going to Salt Lake. It'll be nicer in Salt Lake.
I'm just trying to make sure that my lot pass is staying clear. It should be fine because I think the snow is supposed to die off after today. So let's look at the 10 day forecast. Me and Aubrey sort of make this, have this plan going on to where she'll drive in the snow and then once we hit a certain area of Utah, that's when we'll switch.
Yeah. It's looking, I think you're going to be fine with snow after today. I'm not going to win. So hopefully so. You never know with the weatherman.
You know? Never know with the weatherman. Especially when I saw the snow was returning from Jeff Roper on the life in Idaho Falls Facebook group.
Yeah. One thing I noticed that I thought was kind of funny was what was it about a week ago that they were talking about weather changes coming? You know, we were going to have snow soon.
Right. And a major, major change in weather. And then a few days later, you had our local officials saying that we needed to pray and fast.
Did you see that article? Saying we needed to pray and fast for some snow. And it's like, well, come on guys, you're already told it's coming. So I'm waiting for him to pop up in the news and go, look, it worked. It worked.
And I don't know. Pray and fast? Yeah. So don't eat. You know, take some days off from eating or something.
More on came up with that idea. Just not eat, let's get some snow. That was just our state government. They were in the news. I can't believe you didn't see that article.
It was pretty popular. Anytime I see anything political, I unfollow it on my Facebook feed. Any meme, anything of that sort, I might get out of here. Ah, you got to keep up to date. That's the problem.
No, I don't. People ain't paying enough attention to what's going on in the news. You know, they just get their news through memes and things like that. And there's some crazy stuff going on out there, peaches.
If you actually look at the news, it's pretty wild. But a lot of people just don't do it. You know, it's like when I made a post that people should sit and watch those boring congressional hearings. You know, you like turn on C-span and they're just sitting there, you know, just talking for hours on end. There's some crazy stuff going down, but the news doesn't seem to report on it. Instead, they, I don't know what's going on at eastidonews.com. Let's see. Budget cuts. Yeah, that's what they're talking about. Budget cuts at the state government.
All right. Or rescuers pushing through a winter storm to six survivors of an avalanche. So there's a lot of stuff I've been reading about on countless news sites that doesn't pop up on eastidonews.com. And I'm kind of surprised because news sites love people arguing in the comments. So you'd think this real controversial stuff, they'd be just posting it like crazy.
But no, no. Just slightly less controversial stuff for people to fight about. Like, hey, we're going to build a new roundabout. Then people lose their minds. So. I mean, you saw what happened with my post in the Life in Idaho Falls Facebook group.
Yeah, it went nuts. And it was a simple post that you were absolutely correct in saying that you can't turn right on a red arrow. But no, the Californian's the bad driver. Well, Peaches, you do listen to a lot of traffic school.
So. But I know I have common sense. I just don't. If it's a red arrow, you don't go. You get taught that. You should get taught that. But I don't know how drivers that works anymore.
No, it's been many moons peaches since I was in drivers that I know you can get the Idaho drivers manual online and get yourself some facts people. But that might take too long. You know, you got to read and people don't like to read. No, they don't. So that's another part of the problem. Lack of reading. So why don't you read something fools? Oh, man, it's early nine o'clock.
That's pretty cool. I can't wait to get out of here. Even though I don't want to deal with the snow when I get home. That doesn't sound fun, but I do have a brand new snow blower. And you also have Becca.
Yeah, but I'm not going to put her to work dealing with the snow. Come on. No, it's not the 1950s. You know that.
Yeah, but did she work makes the dream work shoveling and stuff. It's bad for you. Yeah, I can kill you.
It's bad. I'm going to use a snow. You're so much older compared to. Shut up.
I'm not that much older. I so badly. Can I make this joke real quick?
Sure. I so badly when you and you and Becca had a picture in the truck. I so badly wanted the comment father daughter bonding. Stop peaches. We're not that much of a difference in age.
She's in her 30s. I don't want to hurt your feelings. I'm going to be funny. Just keep that to myself. Yeah, come on.
I mean, if it was like a creepy age difference, okay. All right. Leonardo DiCaprio. Yeah. See, I ain't like Leonardo DiCaprio. All right.
You're getting close. Whatever. What ever. Dana woman in her 30s.
If you're in your 40s, that's not that weird. All right. Give me no grief. Keep telling yourself that. Let's say it's different between you and your life. I'm just kidding.
It's like two and a half years. Okay. Who's the older one? Me. You.
Geez, peaches. Two and a half versus 13 is a little. It's not 13. It is 13.
No, it's not 13. Yes, she is. Yeah. 12. That's 12. That's not that bad.
That's when you know it's bad. No. It's not 13. It's 12. It's like somebody trying to say, I'm not five nine and five nine and a half. Like it doesn't make a difference.
It does. And once you're like up in your 30s and 40s, you're just all old. Yeah. But when you're like 16 and she's four. Geez.
I'm actually dumping out of that one. I'm saying like the age difference. Like that means you were. Yeah.
Yeah, but that's not how it is later on. Okay. I didn't mean that.
Well, dumping out just in case. All right. All right.
All right. We're heading into the top of the nine o'clock hour. I'm going to find something else to talk about. Get out here quicker.
Give me grief peaches. Well, should we do a little bit of cue the outrage? It's been a while. Now might be a really good time for you to get angry.
That's my secret, Kat. I'm always angry. The internet is very angry at Beyonce today. Yeah.
Not because of country music or anything like that this time. No, apparently it's because she's cheap. Yeah. Getting a little bit of backlash after firing her longtime stage manager, Terry Cooley. He worked for her for about 22 years and let him go with no severance package or retirement package. And I guess his daughter shared this information in a TikTok video where she talked about his health decline and things like that. But apparently instrumental in her live shows and production management. He was working like 22 hour days sometimes. And then once he started not doing so well, I guess his performance suffered.
So she had to let him go. What's Beyonce's net worth according to the internet? Let's check this out. She's got to be pretty rich. Beyonce net worth. Okay, they're saying a billion bucks. She's a billionaire.
Billionaire, 22 years of service. Not even a get well soon card. Shame, shame.
Come on, Beyonce, time to tough right now. You seen them grocery prices? I guess this guy, you know, he basically had to drain his savings for medical care and things like that, sell his family home and not even a thank you. So this is that kind of kicked off a discussion about the demands placed on those behind the scenes in the entertainment industry. I bet there's a lot of people out there who've worked places like 22 years and you know, once their time is done, not even a thank you.
I'm sure of that. Yeah, I think this one's being highlighted because it's Beyonce, but yeah, what about some of those people who work like fast food jobs for decades? Did they get a retirement package? Yeah, I think you have to build your own retirement package with a 401k. It's what you got to do in the modern day and age. You better like invest in some stocks and things like that.
If you're a young person set up like a Roth IRA and start putting a little bit of money in it each month, you know, it adds up over time. All right. Can't rely on your billionaire, you know, boss Beyonce to hook it up because you know, money is tight for Beyonce. Oh, poor guy.
That sucks. Well, I'm sure she'll bring more outrage sooner or later. Seems like every time Beyonce makes a news the last couple of years, people just mad at her. You're putting out country music.
What are you doing? It ain't country music. Even though if you turn on a modern country station, most of it sounds like pop music anyway.
All right. So yeah, if you want to listen to some country music that doesn't sound pop, don't forget the freshly revamped 105 Outlaw. It's available to your friends. All that stuff that you don't hear normally on country radio. You can hear it on 105.5 HD 2 if you have an HD radio in your vehicle or just download the 105 Outlaw app. I worked really hard on it for a really long time and I think it's sounding pretty good for fans of non-traditional. Well, actually it'd be more traditional country music for fans who aren't so into Florida, Georgia line and things like that. So check it out. You know, you got country music fans.
I bet they'll dig it. Peaches and I were talking about these dating pages yesterday because like, I'm old. I'm so old. I've never been on any type of dating app or in any of these dating groups online that there are apparently a lot of them. And sometimes the posts are so funny. And a lot of them I wonder like, okay, because I just went over to the page peaches linked and I'm like, okay, how many of these are real?
All right. We've got a lot of anonymous participants. You know, if you want to meet somebody, I don't know about going to these links. Usually you could just message somebody on Facebook.
You know, if you're really putting yourself out there like, hey, I need a date. I don't know about sending people to random links that I have a feeling go to certain kinds of websites. But the one peaches sent me was pretty funny. I'm not going to read the post because I don't want to shame somebody publicly. But hey, you know, you got to put yourself out there if you want to get a date.
Okay. Like if you're not on social media, you never leave the house. You're never going to get a date.
You have to put in some effort and try and maybe these singles groups work. I don't know. Because again, I've never monkeyed around with that kind of thing.
So give it a shot, but be careful. There's a lot of creeps out there and weirdos. I'll meet up in a public place. Maybe don't tell them where you live for a while. There's weirdos out there. All right. You know, some terrible people not trying to scare you away from dating, but just exercise a little bit of caution. All right.
You know, try to play it smart. I don't know why this keeps popping up on my Facebook feed. Maybe now it's time to click on it.
Cause it's always a good time to dump somebody. No, it's a vice article and they have this picture of a heart that has a bunch of swords in it, like an actual human heart. And the article, they must just be reposting it over and over and over again. Cause I've been seeing it for days. Researchers just found the exact point of no return in failing relationships.
Okay. What's the point of no return? You know, they start blabbing on in this article. It looks like about, you know, people think of dramatic turning point points as big fights, betrayals, emotional explosions.
New research suggests most relationships don't end that way. They fade out in slow measurable patterns that are surprisingly predictable. So they follow a two phase slide along subtle fade and then a sudden drop off.
They call it terminal decline, which was a term originally used to describe the psychological unraveling that happens before death. Oh, that's just great. All right, let's see. They say somewhere between seven months and 2.3 years before the actual breakup, three things hit a transition point. That's when satisfaction crashes hard.
And by then it's basically over. I'm not actually trying to encourage you to like, like dump people, but you know, sometimes it ain't, ain't working out, you know, if you're not happy, you're only on this planet one time. Okay. If things seem like they're just in a spiral and it's the same crap all the time, you want to go home, but you don't want to go to your house because it feels like there's a big black cloud over it. If you don't even want to go to your sanctuary, your home. I'd say that's a pretty good sign. Time to dump somebody.
Yeah. So anyway, they say if you know what to look for, you can see the end coming for miles away. Yeah, I mean, you start feeling it, you know, eventually, you know, and it can be tough. It's a hard decision to make. And I know dealing with things like divorce and that kind of crap sucked.
Got to get these courts involved and all this kind of garbage. But you know, put yourself first. Put yourself first. Try to make yourself happy.
All right, I'll be back. Well, today's show was decent. I'll give it a decent rating.
I hope you enjoyed it. If you're out and about traveling, continue to be safe. A little bit slick out there.
A little bit snowy, a little bit sucky. So just watch out for other people. Don't follow too close.
Okay. You run into the back of somebody. It's your fault and you're going to be held liable. And it's also an aggravation.
Can you imagine them be pulled over in that crap, wait for the cops to deal with this and that? Just just be safe. All right. Well, almost hiccuped. Or else I almost vomited. It might have been because of this picture I was looking at.
Keeps popping up on my social media feed over and over and over again. And that would be a shirtless picture of Kid Rock and RFK Jr. I guess they put out this exercise video to try to encourage people to be healthy. And I'm all for trying to encourage people to be healthy. Okay. But I don't know if Kid Rock and RFK Jr. are the best spokespeople for getting in shape and being healthy.
All right. There was a recent podcast. I think it was the Theo Vaughn podcast where RFK Jr. was talking about his days doing cocaine off of toilets. And you can find numerous articles about Kid Rock and some of his belligerent behavior.
And also, even if these guys were like the pillars of, you know, wholesomeness, they're still like two old shirtless dudes. I don't know who this is encouraging to exercise. Okay. Get yourself some young influencer or something and, you know, get the same messaging out. But I am sick of Kid Rock and RFK Jr. shirtless on my social media feeds.
I don't need to see that at this time of day. Okay. It's early.
All right. I don't need to start building up nightmare fuel before I'm even done with the morning show. It's not how I like to go about my day.
So anyway, I'm going to get out of here. It seemed like Jade gave me some important work to do. What was it? I don't remember. Well, oh yeah, I remember now.
At least part of it. Wish me luck, people. I'll see you at noon with peaches for the noon hour of madness in mayhem. Thanks as always for hanging out with me. You're the best.
