#0209 - Mark Zuckerberg Cries in a Spa While Elon Gets Clocked by a Toddler - 06/04/2025
Yo. Morning and welcome to the Victor Wilt Show today. Hope you're just energized, feeling great. I'm, feeling pretty good. Energized, not so much, but shout out to JD who just stopped by and dropped me off a breakfast sandwich.
How nice. JD is the best. If you've never met JD, you should. Fantastic fellow. Alright.
Thank you again, JD. Hopefully, that'll fuel me up a bit. Get me going. So also wanna give a shout out to, Stewart who keeps sending me content. Now he sent me a link to this article.
I, I shouldn't call it an article. It's a Facebook post, about the, Suzuki Mokuba and they call it a $3,000 robot dog built for transport and accessibility. So this one, I did do some Googling. And the Suzuki Mokuba, I I don't know if I'm saying that right. It is a real thing, but I cannot find any images of this, you know, robot dog that match the one that Stewart sent me.
Because the one in the, photo from Facebook, it's crazy looking. I'm like, there's no way that costs $3. And I mean, look look what they charge for a motorcycle. This is a giant dog you can, you know, use to go to and from work. I'd be down just tearing down Woodruff on this giant robot dog.
Now the actual Suzuki Mokuba, you know, I mean, it's still something you can ride and, it is a robot. I mean, I guess you could call it a robot dog, but it, like I said, is not near as cool as the, the one that Stewart sent. I'm guessing Stewart sent one that somebody must have made with AI or something like that, unless it's a, a different brand. There are a lot of people working on robot dogs. I mean, like I said, humanity is ready, working, you know, quickly toward being taken over by robots.
Stewart had sent me that article about the self healing robot muscle and skin. We got AI running rampant. Just give it a few years. I've complained a lot about politicians. I'm anxious to see, you know, with their ability to tap into all of the information spread across the Internet.
Anxious to see how it ends up when the the robot overlords start running our lives. And hopefully, they'll make some better decisions than our, politicians do, but that'd be nice. But you never know. I mean, everybody, you know, seems to be a little bit worried about AI becoming sentient and, you know, controlling our lives. It's because we've all seen all them movies.
The matrix, you know, black mirror. You you never see friendly robots, do you? I guess there was one friendly robot in that I, robot movie. Been a long time since I I've watched that, but, that's all we can do is hope. Just hope that they're, you know, somewhat reasonable and they don't, like in the matrix, use us as an energy source.
Yeah. Use us as food. Alright. Well, that's cool. I just wish that the the one in the image Stewart sent.
Now wait wait a minute. It's got a different word in the background here. The Suzuki Murai. Let's let's check that out. Suzuki Murai.
That is linking me to a boat engine. Okay. Well, I tried. I tried. Suzuki, get on it.
Morning. Alright. Let's dive in, see what we got here for, pleasant news. Stewart's just pummeling me with stories about AI. Like, I'm I'm trying to avoid dark topics, but might as well dive into AI could devastate Earth's population down to the size of The UK by 2,300.
Alright. I could be like a typical politician. Well, I ain't gonna be here. Who cares? I'll be long gone by 2300.
Yeah. They're talking about the Earth's population getting down to 100,000,000 people, and they're not saying it's because, you know, the scary self healing robots we talked about earlier are going to, you know, take over and just kill us all. You know? But no. They're just gonna take our jobs.
Yeah. Saying that everything's gonna become automated. So, you know, people ain't gonna be able to get by. They ain't gonna have any dough. So they're gonna stop having kids rather than bring kids into a world where they are destined to be unemployed.
Yeah. Expensive to raise kids as well. You know, right now, ugh, tougher than ever. These terrible prices of everything. Anyway.
Yeah. World population collapsing And with only that many people left on the planet, giant cities like London and New York will quickly turn into ghost towns. And this guy is like, I have all the data in the book. This is not just my personal opinion. Alright, bro.
I mean, again, this is a prediction. You know, there's been a plenty of database predictions over the years that, you know, perhaps didn't end up coming true. Hey, you know, I've really been enjoying, watching the last of us and it's one of my favorite games of all time. There is something peaceful about walking around those dilapidated cities. I mean, you gotta worry about the clickers and you know, all them zombies, but Hey, you know, the, the planet starts healing itself.
Yeah. Bet the air would be really fresh. Be all quiet. Okay. Well, again, I ain't gonna be around to find out if, the human population's gone down that far by 2,300, but, I hope for the sake of all our descendants, things don't suck too bad in the future.
You know, you always think that the advances in technology are just gonna make things better and better and better, but, yeah, we've also made a lot of technology that's not really great. So Alright. I I swear I swear I'm gonna find some uplifting positive stories. I was looking like I stumbled across an article about the, beer fest happening this weekend. That used to be my birthday celebration every year.
But now I'm just a little bit old for that, I think. I looked at the article, and I immediately got really tired. Beer fest, noon to five. Oh, okay. Just let let me go lay down and fall asleep in the recliner right now.
You know? If you're young, it's fun. But, yeah, I'm too old for that. Way too old. All Alright.
Looking through a thread here where people are talking about things they saw in another country that they then immediately wondered, why don't we have that? And it was kinda interesting. There were a few things. I mean, I only scrolled it for a second, but couple things that popped up that I was like, wow. You know?
But that's cool. I mean, this one, I I I don't buy that it's every corner. They said in Rome and Zurich that there is safe, clean, free drinking water available on every corner. Every corner. It'd be handy.
You know? Thirsty? Hold on. Let me walk over there. Alright.
I mean, I not that important to me, I guess. We are lucky at least here in East Idaho. There are areas of The US where getting clean drinking water is, difficulty, but, where we're located, it's generally pretty easy. You can walk into a restaurant. They'll give you a water cup.
So, I mean, I I do think that would be cool, but also in the West, you know, we got some water problems, so I would imagine the waste involved, could potentially mean, you know, this would lead to problems. So alright. Whatever. Somebody else posted about being in a grocery store and they let the cashiers sit, and they were all blown away by that. Alright.
That's when you just talked to your boss about, like, hey, bro. Why do I have to stand? I'm just sitting here ringing up groceries. Can I sit down for a minute? You never know if you don't ask.
Yeah. I ask my bosses for crap all the time and every once in a while I'll I'll get that but you gotta ask and you gotta ask repeatedly. K? Alright. I'm I'm still not like, k.
We've gotta get this in The US, because we have that ability. It's called a chair and, bosses you know, come on. If there's no need for somebody to be standing every second, let them have a seat. Let's see here. In 1997, I was in Singapore and saw these things that looked like vending machines.
It was a machine that would take your, empty pop can, put it in this compartment, crush the can, and then it would, spit out coupons for businesses in the area. It's a good way to, encourage people to throw away garbage and recycle, so that'd be cool. I always like a deal. If I got a few few spare bucks, I'm doing good. Let's see.
Public faucets activated by a foot lever. Okay. But I don't think we really need that. Alright. Public transportation that runs on time.
Yeah. As we continue to grow here in East Idaho, that'd be nice. All right. Let's see. In some countries, some parks have basic exercise equipment that's for free.
We kind of have that. You've got, the monkey bars. Go do some pull ups. That's exercise. Alright.
More common now, but paying for your meal at the table. You know, this is why I should have read through this. None of these things are mind blowing and, like, I can't believe we don't have this. Here's somebody complaining about having to tip people. What I like about other countries is we don't have to tip workers, man.
Now we do need to pay workers more. And that I know some people get butt hurt when I talk about this, but we do need to pay workers more. Like, the worst is people getting charged server wages. It's ridiculous. Yeah.
I will give you a dollar an hour. Hopefully, you have some customers show up. How how is that legit in 2025? And then, you know, I mean, I see restaurants hiring all the time for servers. Kick up the pay a little bit.
I mean, my daughter down in Phoenix, I don't remember what the, rate for servers is in Arizona, but it's a lot more than here. My daughter, like, does pretty well for herself working as a hostess slash server at a restaurant. Like, she'd probably making more money than me. You know? But that's another state.
That's, you know, down in Phoenix. Kick up the wages around here. I thought we were gonna see oh, you know, I was walking around, you know, Sweden, and I stumbled on a rock, and I busted my ankle and went to the hospital, and they fixed me up and set me on my way. Free health care. Yeah.
Wait. Where's that in here? What what would you rather have? Free health care or a drinking fountain on every corner? Yeah.
How about, let's keep them medical bills down. And it is doable despite what politicians will try to tell you. It's very doable. Alright. Somebody's it's really funny that saying I think, free health care is good makes some people angry.
Get so mad about it like have you ever had like a medical problem buddy you know I I don't know if they can do it all around the world I'm pretty sure we could pull it off here, but, you know, I I guess then how are the doctors gonna live in, you know, castles and things like that? And doctors aren't, you know, the main problem. The main problem is, the insurance industry. Alright? They set those those rates that medical providers have to pay.
They got the big book. Like, that's why you get charged, like, a hundred dollars for ibuprofen because they can. We all know it doesn't cost that much. You've seen a medical bill before, and you're like, oh, what what? Will you charge me $20 for, you know, a Q tip?
What is this? Alright. I I shouldn't even dive into this kind of stuff. So far, striking out on anything fun on this show. But we got three more hours to go.
I could always turn it around, and I'm gonna try. K? I'm gonna do my best. I was gonna get into one thing and then I was like, nah. People will get butthurt.
Some people are just such crybabies. You know? Like bring up a topic and settle down. Should be able to have a discussion. Shut up.
Okay. Sorry. So instead, let's see what's going on here in the, advice section of Reddit. As you could maybe tell, I've been multitasking and didn't prepare well. So somebody posted, guys, where do I meet a man who likes staying home?
Alright. It's a it's a post from some woman. She's, in a new city, not opposed to meeting people online, but not having good luck with dating apps. And I'm bumping into people at the gym and work. Okay.
This is the easiest question to answer ever. Alright. What you need to do is find some kind of a local group that centers around video games. K? If you wanna find a dude who likes staying home, you gotta find somebody who's, you know, kinda old.
It's I'm not trying to shame you old dudes. K? I've just noticed the older I get, the more I love just sitting in front of my TV. It's to my detriment sometimes. That's why my patio furniture isn't out and the work I need to do out back has not been done.
Hopefully, I can get it done by the weekend. But, yeah, just find a video game group online and then look for somebody who's kind of old. There you go. They probably enjoy staying home because you know, out on the town can be fun, but it's so exhausting. Maybe it's just how I hit the town.
You know? Maybe the average person gonna wake up feeling that way the next day. But that's yeah. Also as you get older, you know, a night on the town, it punishes you. Punishes you brutally.
So, yeah. Old dude into video games lady. Did anybody comment that? Let's see what, what advice people gave her. Don't go to the gym.
That's that's not where you're gonna find a guy who likes sitting around at home. No. You guys are out, like, getting the job done. You guys are up at 4AM. I'm gonna go lift weights.
I'm gonna hit the treadmill. I just get mad at 4AM. Like, Koopa, shut up. Stop yelling. I got 45 more minutes to sleep.
What's wrong with you? Oh, here we go. Find them on the Internet because they're just sitting at home scrolling. That's true. That's true.
Gaming groups on Reddit might be a good you know, you search for the word, where wherever you live. Idaho. Go make a post. Does anyone like sitting around? Hit me up.
You gotta reach out but again, if you're like going to the gym to try to find somebody who wants to just sit at home, you're gonna have a bad time. All right? You gotta find people that got the relaxed look to them. You know, there are physical attributes that will tell you if someone enjoys sitting around at home. All right?
I'm a prime example. Alright. Anyway, good good luck to that gal. I do not know how this morning is, going by so quickly, but I'm I'm not complaining, not whatsoever, because, the end of the workday sounds pretty sweet. I was just reading about this other guy's workday.
Got me kind of frustrated. It's one of those oh, good for you kind of situations. Guy just posts in the Sedona subreddit. I moved to Flagstaff in February, and my job is in Sedona. Here's a bunch of pictures of my daily commute.
And, I don't know if you've ever been down Highway 89 A from Flagstaff to Sedona. It's probably my favorite drive. It's amazing. It's so crazy. And that's just how he goes to work.
Now I wouldn't wanna live in Flagstaff. If you've never been to Flagstaff, it it's it's very Idaho esque. You know, a lot of pine trees and things like that, but super high elevation. It's like 7,000 feet. And, you know, they they get miserable winters and things like that.
And I've I've hung out in the town. It's okay. But, yeah, I don't know what my point was on this. I was just looking at this, like, this guy's photos going, man, I need to get out of town. I need a road trip.
Gonna be taking one in August, I guess, up to, Bellingham. You know, it's a nice drive. He cruises up through, Coeur D'Alene, which, you know, is a nice area. Last time I drove through there, it was all smoky and crappy. So hopefully, it's not by August, but it is looking like we're gonna have a scorching summer, so probably will be.
Hopefully, fire season isn't too rough. We've gotten pretty lucky last couple years. You know, we had a few days where it sucked, but not like that year when the Colt, Bush, and Stone Temple Pilots played in pokey. Oh, I mean, that was a great show. But, you know, the sky was red.
It was not cool. Not cool. What else is going on here? Researchers genetically altered fruit flies to make them crave cocaine. Okay.
Why? Because they're bored at the University of Utah. Yeah. They've engineered fruit flies that are susceptible to cocaine addiction, and I I guess they're doing this to try to help figure out addiction treatment therapies for people. So that's good.
Addiction is, rough. I don't I don't know exactly what kind of word. It sucks and anything we can do to help people out with that kind of thing is good. I don't know how fruit flies are gonna do it, but I ain't a scientist. Alright?
I am a puddin head radio DJ. I jump on a microphone and yap. So when it comes to scientific breakthroughs, I'm not your guy. I just report on them. But, that's what they're doing at the University of Utah.
Just trying to get flies hooked on cocaine. Seems kinda rude to me. These flies that are born and immediately they're I need a fix. Come on. I'm so sleepy.
Poor flies. I never thought I'd use that phrase. Poor flies. And fruit flies are, like, the most irritating and annoying flies because there's never just one. You know?
You, like, have a banana hidden behind something on the counter you forget about, and next thing you know no. Just bugs everywhere. Oh, I hate that. Anyway, I guess I'm gonna go back to looking at this guy's Sedona photos and, wishing I was in Arizona. Even though I I bet it's miserable there.
It's really hot hot here. Let's just take a look. You know, there are certain places you don't visit at this time of year. You know why hotels are cheap in Vegas during the summer? Because it sucks there.
Even at nighttime. You know, if you've been outside in at, like, midnight and it's eighty, ninety degrees, that's just not not wonderful. Oh, and my weather site's not letting me search. So who cares? Back in a minute.
Wish ghost was coming somewhere close on their tour. They need to announce more dates. Yo. Mountain America Center. Yeah.
Let's make it happen. That'd be sweet. Alright. Let's see here. I got way too many tabs open.
I was reading about this, robotic dog. They these people bought on Temu. Fifty bucks. The peeing robot attack dog, I don't think this thing's worth $50. Alright.
It's interesting looking. It looks exactly like the robot attack dog on that episode of black mirror called I think it's called, heavy metal. It's got a little remote control. Apparently, it doesn't work very good. And apparently, it's got a pellet gun attached to it maybe if it worked good it would be fun to get you know I like trying to keep people from showing up at my house robot attack dog cat ain't cutting it he just sits out there you know keeping an eye on things I don't think there's any way I could strap a pellet gun to him either and you could probably get in trouble you know for that kind of thing but anyway Christmas is right around the corner.
If you're looking for a gift for that special someone, the peeing robot attack dog from Timu fifty bucks, or at least it was $50 when they bought it. I don't know. I've heard prices are going up. Also was looking at a story about a British Airways, steward who was found naked and dancing in the business class toilet, and then they made sure to throw in after alleged drug use. Has there ever been a story in the news where someone was, you know, just stripped down naked dancing around in public, and there were no drugs involved?
Not that I've seen in the many, many years I've been doing this program. Always, always got some kind of substance in the old system there. This is a long flight too. Maybe you got bored. San Francisco to London.
Arrested on suspicion of being unfit for duty. Wow. Can you imagine getting arrested for being poor at your job? I mean, there are some careers where I suppose, you know, that that could happen. You know, maybe you're a a police officer or something like that, but I I wouldn't think, being, you know, an airline steward, even if, you know, you you were dancing naked in the toilet, I I think you'd just get fired.
Well, maybe maybe he was packing drugs. I don't know. The article didn't say. Didn't even say what he was on. You know?
Come on. We wanna know. No. But, I mean, it's not like I'm gonna go, alright. I've I've gotta have this.
I wanna be stripped down naked in public dancing. But I'm just curious. You know? That's why I, read the news. Curiosity.
Speaking of the news, I better get some, freak news dug up. So give me a minute on that, and we'll be back with it. Cool? Cool. The new exhibit at the museum is all about mummies.
And as someone who's, you know, pretty into ancient Egyptian, you know, history and, you know, all of the tombs and artifacts and such. Gotta go check this out. But I did just find another item at a museum that I can't imagine if we even had one of these hiding out somewhere in the Museum of Idaho that they would put it on display. A rare nineteenth century condom with erotic etching goes on display at Dutch Museum. They've got it in a glass case.
It's on a little stand. You know, it's good to live in the times we do now. They believe it was made from a sheep's appendix. Yeah. That's hot.
Dates back to 1830 and, they said it's likely a souvenir from a brothel. It's got an etching on it like I mean how do you explain what an etching is? A drawing? I'm not gonna describe the drawing because it's it's inappropriate. But I just can't imagine wandering through a museum in The Netherlands.
And the way they have it displayed, it looks like a very important artifact in the museum. Like I said, full glass case. And when I'm talking about a glass case, like, floor to ceiling glass walls all around it. And it's pretty clear what it is. Alright.
After the mummy exhibit, how about, the Museum of Idaho? You know, make make some calls. Let's just have that right when you walk in the door. That's pretty funny. Okay.
What else do we got in the world of dumb news? Okay. We've already talked about truck nuts. The the truck nuts thing in Idaho is, going viral everywhere again. Are they actually ticketing people for this?
I have a feeling it's gonna be selective enforcement. I gotta talk to, Lieutenant Crane about this on Friday. You know, because the the guy who launched this bill, you know, he just seems to be one of these really uptight, liars who claims that he's offended by boobs. But, you know, if you wanna start banning body parts, truck nuts gotta go. And what's funny is I think I've talked about truck nuts so much.
And I don't have truck nuts on my truck. But as I was scrolling Facebook the other day, an ad popped up for like metal truck nuts. Yeah. They they kinda look like like monsters or they were covered with spikes. Hilarious.
I need to find those again. Though I don't, you know, really have time to be getting pulled over and getting ticketed, so I guess I'll have to pass for now for now. But, you know, with my birthday right around the corner, if you're looking for a really special gift, whatever they were called, the the monster truck nuts. Alright. Let's talk about camping.
You know, camping season's here. Okay. Back when I had a camper, you know, it's great. It's great having a camper because camping in a tent is terrible. I'm too old for that.
Alright. Even with like an air mattress, I have a nice air mattress camping. Forget forget being in a tent. And since I got rid of my camper, I guess it's Airbnb. Rent a cabin.
Anyway, when I had a camper, you know, you fill it up with fresh water and some people actually use that as drinking water. Now I think if you treat your system properly, you can. I was always too sketchy about it. I'm like, that came out of the hose. It's been sitting in the camper.
I I just don't I'll bring, jugs of bottled water along. Well, here's why you don't want a monkey with RV water that could potentially be brain eating amoebas. Yeah. Texas woman, she she dead. You know, rip, hope her family's doing okay.
She was, infected by naegleria fowleri infection, which is incredibly rare, but it it pretty much always killed you. So this is what she did. She wasn't drinking the water. You know those, little sinus, nasal irrigation device? It it, you know, it's like a a thing with salt water or saline water.
You spray it up your nose to clear out your sinuses. I guess you use camping water and you're supposed to use like sterilized water. Yeah. Distilled water or something like that. Yeah.
So she she got a brain eating amoeba and she's dead now. Yeah. Just trying to hang out and camp. Camping in Texas though, that does not sound fun to me. I mean, you can go camp in the desert here but you gotta camp.
You know, back to tents, you ever woke up in a tent in the sun? Ugh. Sucks. That's another reason to not sleep in a tent. You freeze all night.
You gotta get up and wander out to the woods in the middle of the night if you need to use a bathroom. And then you wake up and the sun's just beating down on your tent turning it into a, you know basically a greenhouse. Oh, but hey, you know never got a brain eating amoeba so doing pretty good. Alright and then finally a guy in Turkey slept through a five point eight on the Richter scale earthquake after downing 10 beers as the hotel was shaking. Alright.
I was recently at a hotel and there was a fire in the hotel. K. Middle of the night, there's a fire. So fire alarms go off. We bail.
We're hanging out outside on the streets in Salt Lake, you know, the whole hotel. And, one of my friends was not outside. I'm not gonna say who. But, you know, I have a homey. He's just like, forget it.
I'm not getting out of bed. You know, thinking it was just a fire alarm like maybe a drill. No. There was actually a fire. Fire department's there and everything.
I mean, it sucked. I wanted to get back up to the room but, yeah, if, if you're in a room that's shaking, if you're in a hotel, you know, up on a high floor, building shaking, you should probably follow the crowd wherever they're going. Same goes for fire alarms. K? There might actually be a real fire.
It they do happen sometimes. So, yeah, don't be this guy. I'm sure that crawling out of bed after ten pints, as this guy said, you know, isn't gonna be pleasant, but it's better than, yeah, being trapped in a dilapidated, destroyed building thanks to an earthquake. Well, I think right now we need to talk about poor Mark Zuckerberg. Yeah.
You know that, the guy who runs Facebook owns Facebook? One of the richest people in the world. You know, the poor guy, he's just got it so rough. He says that running Meta, the parent company of Facebook, It's like being a punching bag. Oh, I've got it so bad.
Have you noticed that it, as of late, seems to be, like, well off men who are just the whiniest people on the planet. The endless boohooing and poor me. It it's just so absurd. So absurd. Oh, I know I've got billions of dollars.
Every day you wake up and you're like punched in the stomach. So I, you know, wander down down the hall to my, you know, personal spa staffed with, you know, multiple people to, you know, just take care of me to start my day. Shut up, guy. I I do have to say there was a funny story about another rich guy in the news recently. That would be Elon Musk.
Now, am I all good to start making fun of Elon Musk again without people getting butt hurt now that, you know, he and Trump are, like, fighting with each other? Because, you know, like, I don't I don't know what the deal is. But for whatever reason if somebody was like buddy buddy with Trump, you make fun of them even if you've made fun of them for years then, you know, I got more crying to deal with. So, you know, they're they're like, sort of on the outs right now or something. Did you see that Elon Musk has a black eye?
And he claims that his, what is his kid? Five years old? His five year old kid that's named, like, x two three four something. That, you know, he got the black eye from telling his kid punch me in the face. Alright.
Either that's a a pretty tough little five year old or bro's got weak skin. You know? I mean, it's pretty easy to bruise, I suppose, but I've been punched in the face numerous times. Alright? It's never pleasant, but I think I've only had like one black eye and I mean I got punched in the face hard.
I think he's lying. I don't think a five year old punched him in the face. I bet there's more to the story and I wanna know what it is. You know, Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk at one point were supposed to have a cage match, and it would have been great because these are two guys that you would love to see from time to time, maybe get smacked in the face, but then they both chickened out. Hey, peaches.
What's up? I was just talking about people getting punched in the face and being punching bags and whiny rich people. It hurts. It it hurts. Have you ever had a black eye from being punched in the face?
No. No. K. No. I don't want one either.
Thank you. Alright. I mean, I I've had one. I've been punched in the face a lot of times, but only one black eye. It's it's gotta be the right kind of strong hit to the right spot.
And, yeah, Elon Musk claiming his five year old punched him in the face and gave him black eye. I doubt it. Yeah. You know, there there's gotta be a better story behind Elon Musk having a black eye. I do I did like that whole conspiracy theory about Jay Leno.
You know, he said he fell down the hill and his face was all, you know, blackened and stuff. Yeah. And everyone was saying that was like some sort of Hollywood initiation to where, like, you know, he was he he got beat up and that's part of your way into Hollywood, the Hollywood elite of some sort. I don't know. Yeah.
He claimed he fell down, like, a really steep hill. That this isn't the hill. It's a pretty steep hill. Yeah. But, like And he's really old.
Jay Leno, he's really old. So, you know, you're gonna take more damage. First of all, what is he doing up on that hill anyway? Is he just taking a stroll? And how clumsy do you have to be to fall down a hill like that?
Now Peach is Are you that tipsy? I have fallen down before, but not a steep hill. Yeah. Yeah. I I I would I feel like I slide down like a penguin if I were to fall down the hill.
Let's, let's take some calls here. Alright. You're live on air. Please keep that in mind. Who's this?
This is James out in Tennessee. James in Tennessee? We haven't talked to you forever. How you guys doing? We're doing pretty good, man.
Yourself? Doing pretty good. Doing pretty good. So what's up, dude? What's on your mind?
I actually was calling to see if you had the new falling in reverse song yet. Oh, yeah. God is a weapon. Dude, that's a killer song. Yeah.
I could throw it on here in a few. Oh, that's awesome. Alright, dude. I was just telling to check-in with you guys. I hadn't heard from you well.
I also heard about Black Eyes. One of my first Black Eyes, though, was at a Pantera concert, actually. So, that was a memorable one. That's a that's the right place to get it. See, the the most of the time that I've been punched in the face was at a concert.
It wasn't, like, in a I don't get in fights with people because it's dumb. You're gonna end up in jail. Somebody could end up dead, like, you know, I mean, especially if you're, like, my age and you're fighting people. Yeah. It's like, dude.
Right. Yeah. What what is wrong with you? Terrible. I don't know.
I had, like, an aggressive teammate, and he thought I was stalling him the whole time in in practice. So he just turns around and just socks me right in the cheek. Yeah. Like, getting in fights with people, that's what, like, 13 year olds do. I think I think we were, like, 15.
We were about yeah. We were about 15 years old. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
So I've anyhow, well, Pantera, was the first time I got chucked over a barrier. That was the first time I, was very angry at a show because it was more it was my first show, and I got up front. And this guy, probably like your size, Peaches, just threw me over the barrier. That's why you gained all this weight. Now I understand it.
That's where I gotta be able to hold my ground. Yeah. You guys You ain't gonna be able to pick me up now, big guy. Well, James, I hope, hope everything's good out in Tennessee, man. Hey.
It's it's pretty good, man. We're finally into the full blown part of summer. You guys quit sending some cold air down this way, so we're a lot happier now. Alright. Well, try not to, bake in the humidity, and, you have yourself a a great week, James.
Good to hear from you. Right on. You guys too. Bye bye. Peace out, man.
Alright. Let's talk about horror movies. I have been on a major horror kick for, you know, about the last week. I think I've watched about a dozen movies. And, there's a great story making the rounds about a recent showing of the new final destination bloodline movie.
Really wanna see this movie. Now the final destination series as a whole, you know, it's definitely got a lot of flaws. Part two's excellent. So, you know, just a classic. Three, four, five.
But this new one's supposed to be just great. My daughter called me one night. I was, like, pretty much getting ready for bed. She's like, dad, you wouldn't believe it. I just went and saw Final Destination.
You have to go. The the crowd was cheering. They were gasping. They were laughing. I hear it's got some very creative and fun death scenes.
And that's what Final Destination's all about. Well, imagine you're at a theater watching it, and all of a sudden the roof caves in. I mean, I don't think anybody was hurt too badly when this happened. It was in, Argentina, but, that would add a lot to the movie watching experience. Right?
I wanted to read more of the the article here, but they started giving spoilers. And I I don't like spoilers. Like, over the weekend, I went and saw this excellent new a '24 movie called bring her back. And, all I knew was that all of the horror guys I follow on social media, you know, various writers and such were really raving about this movie. So I'm like, I gotta go.
My sister was in town, so let's go to a movie. So we go to bring her back. And, man, I mean, it was my kind of horror. Alright? I mean, I guess all horror is my kind of horror.
What am I talking about? But, you know, it's kind of in that vein of hereditary, that kind of vibe. Just so good. So good. But, yeah.
Went in knowing nothing, and that that's kinda how I prefer it because then you can really be taken by surprise when you see a movie. Like, if you haven't watched barbarian, watched that last night. Barbarian is so good. And if it had been spoiled, like, in any way, oh, it would have been such a different viewing experience because the first half hour of the movie gives you no idea what's really going on and then it takes this you know dramatic shift and it's just so good so good I should take a half day and just go watch horror movies but I might feel guilty. I got I got yard work I need to do.
So I'll keep giving you a show. Alright. I'll be back. Alright. I've talked before about how bagpipes being played badly is, you know, irritating.
You know, if you know what you're doing, sure. But have you ever heard somebody play the bagpipes? Not so well. Nah. It's annoying, but you can't just punch somebody in the face over it.
The wife of a federal bankruptcy judge in Texas now in jail after she became enraged at a man playing bagpipes and, assaulted the musician's wife. So this guy's out. He's at a park. He's just bagpiping away, and the woman just starts yelling at him. Fires up her phone.
Stop with the stupid bagpipes. And, so the guy's wife sees what's going on she busts out her phone and starts recording they start screaming at each other and then out come the fists now these are people in their seventies k we talked earlier about being too old to be punching people in the face and getting into fights Seventies. You know what happens when you're at that age and you get knocked down? Unlike that one song, you might not get back up again. You know?
And you you don't want a broken hip or anything like that. All you gotta do is walk away from the bagpipes. I know. You're just trying to enjoy a nice stroll in the park. Well, if that's bagpipe central, just find a different park.
Let's see. Guy ended up with a black eye. Okay. Weak skin like Elon Musk. Can you imagine waking up in your own coffin?
Doesn't sound great. I'm a little claustrophobic. That sounds about as bad as it gets. But luckily, they found out, you know, before they chucked it in the ground. Yeah.
There was a woman in the Czech Republic, you know, pronounced dead. So they show up, get the coffin all ready sticker in it and then right before they close the lid opens up her eyes and just starts breathing that's a terrifying story because if this happened I guarantee there have been lots of people buried alive. Maybe they need to bring back that old school practice. You You know, you'd have the bell on a string. Yeah.
Yeah. So you can let people know. Help. I'm down here. I ain't dead.
Please dig me up. Wow. Yikes. I actually, I I wouldn't say I was accused of being dead, but, you know, the first computer I ever bought, I financed it through Dell. You got a Dell.
And so I'd had this computer for months, and then all of a sudden, one day, I get a a letter in the mail saying my financing had been declined because I'm reported as deceased. I was like, okay. What do I do here? What do I do in this situation? Does this mean I don't have to pay this bill?
Note. You'll end up having to pay the bill. Alright. I think it was a clerical error of some sort. They, you know, did determine I was alive, and I did have to pay the bill.
But I was kind of excited for a few because I didn't, you know, have have much money. I don't have much money right now. And if I could have, any of my bills canceled because I'd been reported as deceased, that'd be fantastic. I I think it's fraud, though, if you, like, say, had somebody make up a a fake death certificate. You start sending it off to, you know, the various companies you owe.
Don't do that. K? Jail's no good. Being out on the streets, you know, being out free, it's not too shabby. You know?
Like I said, I get claustrophobic. So being cooped up in a cell, oh, sounds sound pretty bad. Which would be worse, jail or a coffin? I I think I'll still have to go coffin because, yeah, even if the food sucks, you know, you do get, food and drink in jail. Are you concerned with illness?
Getting sick, blah blah blah? Well, exposing your immune system to, you know, a variety of things is good for it. And, apparently, one of the best ways to, you know, expose your immune system to all these, you know, different bacteria and such is to have pets. Yeah. There's a big study they did looking at all these different cultures and groups of people and, have discovered that, you know, people who live, say, like, in, farming communities and things like that tend to get exposed to a lot of a lot of things you wouldn't get, say, just living in the city.
And if you have, like, a cat or a dog, chances are they're bringing things in. You know, it ends up on your skin, microbes and such, blah blah blah. And, it can help you, you know, with building up immunity to certain things. So I guess my cat's pestering me every morning, 4AM to get out of bed, you know, crawling on me, yowling. At least they're keeping me well.
Right? They're like the opposite of children because children will certainly expose you to all kinds of things. You know? They pick up some crud at school, bring it home. Far as I know, never caught a cold from the, the old cat.
But every single time that I got something like the flu or the rona. Yeah. Guess who had it first? One of them children. Or I went to a radio convention, and, well, those people are essentially children as well.
You know, I mean Look around even me All right I'm a little immature sometimes And there ain't nothing wrong with that, but, yeah. You've heard peaches on air. He's a kid. He gets mad when I say it too. Alright.
Well, you are a kid peaches. Whatever. Stay away from me when you're sick. Disturbed, indestructible. And, you know, you might feel indestructible, but here's the reality.
We're all gonna die. You know, I'm trying to keep things fun and uplifting around here, so I figured we'd listen to this, ghost song about dying. And, then I'm gonna tie it into something that could work as a, you know, community issues report and something that might be of use to you in relation to death. Alright? So let's listen to this very pleasant song, and then we'll talk more about death.
The final track on the latest ghost album, Scaletta, that was Excelsis. And, yeah, you know, we're keeping it pleasant and fun, and we're talking about death. Alright. Sorry, by the way, to anybody who recently had a, friend or family member pass away. You know?
Obviously, that happens every day. And I know there are days I wouldn't have wanted to hear what I had to say. You know? Like, Let's, keep it fun. Let's talk deaf.
Anyway, this was leading into something that could be helpful for pretty much anybody. We're gonna talk about estate planning. I was reading from KSL that, Weber State University has launched a free online tool to help everyone create a will. Yeah. You know, if you've got kids or I mean, even if you don't, you know, your possessions and your assets, if you don't have some documents in place and you suddenly get hit by a bus or something, who knows what's gonna happen?
It could create major problems in your family and things like that. Nobody knows exactly what you wanted to have done afterward. So I myself, I have thought about this for years because I'm very paranoid that at any given moment, I'm just gonna kick the bucket. You know? It I'm surprised I made it this far in life just because.
It's not like, you know, I've got any kind of major health problems or anything. I'm just paranoid. But I've never gotten around to making a will. It seems kind of daunting. Right?
Or you gotta go to a lawyer and, you know, pay. Anyhow, now there's a way to get this done. According to this article, fewer than a third of Americans report having a will, and user usually, it's procrastination that's to blame. Why why haven't I got it done? Procrastination.
Pretty much the same reason I haven't gotten a lot of other things done, like putting out my patio furniture. Just procrastinating. So they've set this up. If you want to Google Weber State University actually, it looks like you could just go to weber.giftlegacy.com. You set up an account, and they will help you set up your will online for free so that you can guarantee your family, you know, can deal with things just a little bit easier, in the event of your passing.
So I figured this was something good to get out to everybody because if, like me, it's an idea that pops in your head every now and again, and then you go, I can't deal with that. Maybe you'll be able to, sit down at your computer and just get the job done. Maybe you can do it in step. I haven't looked at it, but I did email myself the link to my personal email so that I can get the job done because yeah. I mean, there's certain things that, I'd wanna make sure my kids were aware of and blah blah blah.
I mean, it's not like mostly what I have is like, alright, kids. Good luck dealing with these books. And, this homie gets a guitar. This homie gets a guitar. Alright.
I'm out. But, yeah, just wanted to get it out there to you because these are one of those things that, again, lots of people put off doing. And, I can tell you since both of my parents have passed, figuring out what to do afterward when you don't have a lot of information, can be challenging. And, there there were disputes over all kinds of things, between family members. Not like me and my brother and sister, but, you know, people have a lot of different ideas on what needs to happen as far as a funeral goes and blah blah blah.
And, you know, if if you just got it all documented, you're you're helping people out. So we cool with that death break? I hope so. But, yeah, weber, w e b e r, Gift legacy Com or just go over to the, Weber State University website and, you know, you you can find it there. The article's at KSL.com.
Man, today's show, it was over in the blink of an eye. Crazy. Not complaining. Long as the rest of the day goes equally as quick, we're doing good. Alright.
Before I go, I know if you get a call from your kid's school, the principal's office, and they're like, hey. We need you to come down and talk to us. We got a problem here. Your kid's getting into fights at school. We gotta figure out a game plan to stop this from happening.
It's gonna be frustrating. You know? You gotta go down and, deal with an uncomfortable situation. Here's what you don't do. You don't behave like Mariah Hector.
She showed up to talk to the middle school principal and superintendent. And, well, you know, I guess they found out where the kid learned it from because she just all out assaulted these these folks grabbed one of the administrators by the neck started choking her and let's see. What else did we have here? That's the, main point that they're really emphasizing was the choking. Okay.
I I thought there were some hands thrown and things like that, but no. Just hands around the neck. Yeah. Don't, attack the principal. Alright?
Little girl, where did you learn it from? I learned it from you. One of one of those situations. Jeez. Well, anyway, just wanna give you that final tip.
Maybe if you're prone to, lashing out, do it over the phone. Maybe have a Zoom meeting. It's twenty twenty five. Lots of reasonable solutions. Thank you again for tuning in to the Victor Wilt Show.
