NHOMAM - Men Are Now Refusing To Shower Because They Think They’ll Become Irresistible - 08/14/2026
Speaker 1: The noon hour of Madness Mam the Podcast.
Speaker 2: All right, Peaches, right before we jumped on air here, you used the phrase pheromone maxing. Apparently I missed out on this one.
Speaker 3: I I did not use it. I'm to be clear. I'm not pheromone maxing myself. My friend Matt just texted me the headline of an article and he sent it in the group chat. Men are not bathing in the pursuit of pheromone maxing. And he calls Jose Jit. He says, Jit, I know you're doing this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pheromone maxing, a viral social media trend where pretty much all dudes stop using deodorant, stop showering. They think that amplifying their natural body odor will release biological pheromones that make them irresistible to others. Um, it makes you stink and you're covered with bacteria. It's disgusting. What why have guys gotten so dumb if only peaches?
Speaker 3: If I ever smell, could you please let me know?
Speaker 2: Yeah, me too. I mean, do I smell fine today?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're fine. I shot I don't really ever like smell anything off of you. Okay. There's a particular dude here in the building, though. He smells like old ham. And I kind of want to tell him.
Speaker 2: But you just asked to be told if you smell, so maybe you should tell him he smells like ham.
Speaker 3: But I don't want to like hurt his feelings, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, if you hear, hey dude, do you smell like ham? That that could hurt somebody's.
Speaker 3: Right. And no, I I intentionally tried my try my absolute hardest to uh scent max instead. I uh I like to uh smell good. I I used uh my friend's uh girlfriend to uh be my pass into Ulta so I could go in there and grab their uh their body wash that's blue moss algae. It's like 15 bucks for this bottle. It's like salt air brand. Oh, geez. Smells good.
I I will like when I shower, I rub it all over myself and I go, ooh, I smell good. It's like Bruce from finding Nemo or his eyes turn red or black or whatever. Oh, geez. I like that smell.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I I just this one baffles me. You would think. All right, I stink. I'm gonna go pick up a leg. Who thinks that way?
Speaker 3: There was a post that I uh talked about on the show yesterday. This girl posted saying, My boyfriend stinks. We've been dating for three years. He's had the same clothes since middle school.
They're in their early 20s. Um, he says he showers with soap, but he just overall smells and like his chest area smells really bad. You know, the downstairs area, even worse.
Speaker 2: He probably one of those guys who doesn't wipe.
Speaker 3: He has the same underwear and socks he's had since middle school. Um she's bought him new undies, new panties, of course, and new new socks, and he just leaves them in the car in the pack. What a weirdo dump him. That's everyone's saying in the comments. You know, could you imagine you get broken up with because you smell bad?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it'd be embarrassing, but maybe you'd maybe you'd turn your life around and take a shower.
Speaker 3: You start trying to like this guy like it's broken up with, he starts showering with like old spice, and you know, he's sending her pictures like look, I'm using like body wash, please come back. He's like tears in his eyes. I bought the $30 Ulta body wash, please.
Speaker 2: Like, pretty much if the the word maxing is after something, you shouldn't do it, right? I'm hype maxing. But you can't go any further.
Speaker 3: Uh I could get that leg lengthening surgery.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Can you imagine what what a freak show you'd look like with a leg extension?
Speaker 3: I know the uh the Clippers just signed an NBA player who's seven foot five to combat against Victor Wimbinama, who's seven foot four. Like they're they're really trying their hardest to get these tall freaks, like even taller, taller freaks, into the NBA. And all these dudes are like 150. Like they weigh less than the both of us. Have you seen a picture of Victor Wimanyama?
Speaker 2: I think we did look him up one time, yeah. Because he was getting interviewed and you could only see the reporter's hand.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he's I think he weighs less he definitely weighs less than you.
Speaker 2: Hey, what are you saying?
Speaker 3: Well, I'm saying like he's skinny skinny. Like he's like Jade Minute Bull, who's seven foot eight, he was 200 pounds. Yeah. That's crazy. That's a stick. That is a stick. I don't remember the last time I was 200, to be quite honest with you.
Speaker 2: Uh probably uh when you were a wee lab.
Speaker 3: Middle school. Because I think my my in high school I was 250. No, two forty, two fifty. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So you decided to do some fat maxing.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, some burger maxing, some uh some lard maxing for sure. Yeah, I got chalupa maxing even. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, I gotta do some kind of food maxing today, but uh, you know when you go too long without food and then you're not hungry?
Speaker 3: Yeah, because your body just like shuts down and starts eating the the fat and the muscle and all of that.
Speaker 2: I think that's where I'm at right now. Dude, my diet's been uh I do not feel good off as of late.
Speaker 3: Like I've only had like what was it? Friday. I think it was Friday when I realized at 5 p.m. last Friday, I realized that I only had 1300 calories by almost the end of the day. And I'm like, well, I naturally burn about 3200, so I need to amp it up. So I I rewarded myself with orange chicken and broccoli beef with white rice from Panda Express.
Speaker 2: That's it. That actually sounds tasty.
Speaker 3: They have the hot the hot orange chicken now, too. I'm I'm too white now. I'm too my I'm not spice maxing. I think I'm turning into my dad. My dad sweats eating garlic bread.
He's he's awful. Like, I don't know what happens to him when he eats, but he starts sweating profusely. He'll he'll ask the waitress at any restaurant we go to. Can you give me a giant wad of napkins?
And they'll come out with like, you know, a big pile. Yeah, and he's using them all. He has them on his lap and he'll take a bite, chew loudly, grab a napkin with the other hand, wipe his forehead. Cheemaxing. Yeah, he's chew. Oh, he's been chew maxing it his entire life.
Speaker 2: It's the noon hour of madness mayhem. How's it going, Peaches?
Speaker 3: I'm doing great. It's Friday. I'm excited. Also, we got the crazy figure eight car races tonight. Maddie's gonna be driving. I gave her uh a giant pile of K-bear stickers. She is going to uh sticker bomb, sticker max um her her old Subaru.
Speaker 2: Sweet. Yeah, if anybody been living in a cave and didn't hear Maddie's gonna be racing. The figure eight races going down at the Madison County fairgrounds in Rexburg at seven o'clock tonight. And you gotta get out there and cheer her on. Now we want to see her crush and destroy the competition.
Speaker 3: I know her girlfriend texted me saying, hey, like both of our families are coming out. We really want to get all of us in one section. I'm like, yeah, that sounds good. You know?
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, um, I'm gonna attempt to make it. I got this uh birthday dinner with uh Becca's family. So uh has she ever done anything for you? Becca's family? Becca's sister. Um, no. But don't bother showing up. No, it's it'll be it'll be fine.
Speaker 3: You walk up to Becca and be like, how much am I getting paid? She says nothing, you move on to the next thing.
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, I could be taking a nap. Who needs food? And then I'll take a cruise to Rexburg. Yeah. No, I'm join us. If I can make it, I will. Because I won't better see Maddie race. But just depends how late the dinner goes.
Speaker 3: Jeff is bringing a date potentially. Yeah. All right. That's that's that's a typical Idaho date for you. Let's go watch these cars going to figure eight pattern. That should be fun.
Speaker 2: You lack redneck events, lady.
Speaker 3: Come on. We're going to Rexburg, Idaho to watch these cars. Vroom vroom.
Speaker 2: Yeah, uh, Jeff, you might want to, you know, think about some other date options. But it's good to get out and support Maddie. So y'all should go to the crazy figure eight races tonight. Madison County Fairgrounds in Rexburg. Uh, we've given away all our tickets. We got no more freebies. Sorry.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't like the fact that I gave away like all the big pile, the giant pile of tickets that I had, right? I uh then Justin from 105 the Hawk was like, uh, you want to give all of mine away?
I'm like, sure. So I just went over to my studio, the Z103 studio and just started giving those away. And then I get accused of like not misplacing the tickets because a listener came in this morning and it wasn't in the proper drawer. And so I'm talking to Josh about this radio station that we were about to talk about.
Yeah, we'll do it next time. And Star comes walking in and goes, I have a listener up front. There's no more tickets are. I'm like, I don't know. Go find them. Like, what are you bothering me for? Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, luckily we happen to have a couple sitting here. So it worked out, but anyhow, y'all should go. Mad Marvin Crane, Lieutenant Crane's crazy figure car raise, figure eight car raise.
Speaker 3: He's car max today. He's car maxing. But I he was in the Z103 studio prior to hopping on for traffic school powered by the advocates, and uh, he's like, You want to feel the plate inside? Yeah, he had me do that too. I'm like, what are you talking about? And he like pulls down his shirt. I'm like, whoa, whoa, Lieutenant Crane. Whoa.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's he's uh Robocop now.
Speaker 3: You know, he has the metal plates and everything. They was telling me his knee would was already setting off the TSA uh uh security, the whatever, you know, the T it was setting off TSA at the airport. I'm like, now you're really gonna set it off with the bolts and screws and all of that. And yeah.
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, he's getting he's getting the uh extra search anytime he travels. Sucks.
Speaker 3: to be you, buddy. Imagine Lieutenant Crane getting searched at the airport.
Speaker 2: That'd be great. I do want to see him. I want to see it happen. They're search maxing. It's the noon hour of madness and mayhem. And who found this radio station? Josh.
Speaker 3: Josh did. So apparently a listener called into Classy 97 and said, Hey, um, I live in the uh Bear Lake area, Montpelier, or wherever. I'm not good at my Idaho geography.
I need to Idaho Max here. Um, but he he was talking to he won something with them, and he goes, Yeah, there's this local radio station by the name of the wave, and they have a husband-wife duo. Well, the wife mostly does the show by herself, but every Friday, the husband will come in and it'll become married with microphones. And they'll start talking about, you know, little quarrels that were that are relatable between with the listeners and such. But apparently um the listener was like, Yeah, these two are stealing like a whole bunch of stuff that you guys are doing on Classy. Wouldn't surprise me. Out of all the shows you could steal from, you steal from Josh and Chinto. That's like stealing from the Dollar Tree. Like, why would you why why would you just not need to forget it?
Speaker 2: But it is Montpelier Bear Lake area. I was surprised they had a radio station.
Speaker 3: If I was a DJ in that area, I think I would end my career.
Speaker 2: Do they have uh they don't even have DJs listed that I've
Speaker 3: got to do it? Well, it's this lady with like big poofy blonde hair. Okay. Uh I believe her name's Janet. Um, if you look at their Facebook page, okay. Um, they have one point one thousand seven hundred uh listeners or followers, I should say.
Speaker 2: pretty good for Montpelier.
Speaker 3: Yeah. So they're they're they're pretty big in the area, but like as Josh said off the air when we were talking to him, they brought in the superintendent to talk about local stuff. And I think I think uh radio stations they can get a little too local.
Uh yeah. I think there are things that should not be talked about on the air, like a stupid, and I mean stupid birthday shout-out. If like don't ever message us asking, oh, my it's my eight-year-old's birthday today. Could you give him a birthday shout out?
Speaker 2: I'll get if they shout out. Peaches. It's special to that one kid, But to everyone ever listeners, like, hey, screw you, little Timothy. I want to listen to my music.
Speaker 2: I don't think people are that bad. And if you call and ask for a birthday shout-out, I'll give you one.
Speaker 3: But then there's also like this other radio DJ that I heard. Um, I forgot exactly what station he's on, maybe an internet station. Because you know, like when DJs get fired from their actual radio jobs, they go to internet radio. Yeah. Um, this guy was like just highlighting the high school's lunches in the area. So he was sitting there reading a lunch menu going, and today's special at So and So High School, they got lasagna with cheese sticks. Um, they also got a nice thing of milk with it. All that dairy. Dude.
Speaker 2: Ouch. Well, the wave, um, I hadn't been to their Facebook, but they haven't updated their main website for at least a couple months. They were doing some lagoon ticket giveaways with the winner to be announced on June 26th.
Speaker 3: And keep in mind, it is August 14th.
Speaker 2: Uh, yes. They also had another contest. Um celebrating America's 250th birthday. They're wanting to do 250,000 acts of service by the 4th of July. So um, that's coming up.
Speaker 3: So, how how how few people live in this area to do that many acts of service?
Speaker 2: Let's find out. Okay.
Speaker 3: We got to do the math realistically on this one.
Speaker 2: Montpelier, Idaho. We're we're gonna see what county that's in. Well, let's do the entirety of Bear Lake County. Sure. Cause I mean, Montpelier's it's so small that there couldn't be that many people living there. I'm ashamed. They'll thousand people, 2,643 people in Montpelier. Okay, so let's see here. Bear Lake County. Population. About uh about 6,727 people. So I not very many.
Speaker 3: I'm dividing 250,000 with 6,727. Each person individually would have to do 37 acts of service. It's not that bad.
Speaker 2: It's doable by the 4th of July next year. Yeah, sure.
Speaker 3: Acts of service maxing.
Speaker 2: Now, did you you were in here when we were listening to this station, right?
Speaker 3: Oh, it was awful. No, so I was in the in the classy 97 studio when it was playing, and they're supposed like he so they're playing this old, old song. Josh is kind of odd. Like, I walk into the studio this morning, uh, the door was wide open. I was like, hey, good morning, Josh. And then I see his TV's on, and he's listening, he's watching a live stream of this particular street in Dublin, Ireland. And I'm like, what is it? What are you watching here? He goes, Well, uh, one of the Eagles died in Big Bear, and so we don't really watch the Eagles camera anymore. So now I'm just watching the Dublin Ireland live stream.
What a weirdo. And then he's listening to the radio station at the same time he's watching it, and they're playing like this classic oldies, very white cannonball blowback level song. And he's like, try to guess what uh what uh type of station this is. And I go, oldies? And he goes, No, this is a hit music channel. Yeah, the wave is Montpelier's hit music station. Very similar to Z103, the same tagline. Yeah. So I think this is Bruno Mars.
Speaker 2: But listen to what their stream sounds like. It's so blown out and terrible.
Speaker 3: Well, Josh was really diving deep into it, and he was like, Well, the with the old files, they sound great. They never really sound great. They sound like a radio stream and they sound they sound uh listenable. Yeah. Uh they're playing Bon Jovi Deep Cuts this morning, too. Um, but I think just until now, I mean, uh, do they switch formats in the middle of the night? Are they that small?
Speaker 2: Maybe. Maybe they do.
Speaker 3: Are they they're that small to where like, oh, they do an all-night thing where they play the oldies for the old people who are staying up late, and then during the day they played.
Speaker 2: Because yeah, this is this is Bruno Mars. I mean, it sounds horrible.
Speaker 3: Because we listened to the the Benson Boone track that they were playing, Mr. Magic Bill. And it was yeah, it was awful.
Speaker 2: So yeah, um, I don't want to reach out to him and be like, do you guys know how horrible your stream sounds? Do you need someone to come fix it?
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, we need to do this uh this TV show. Like bar rescue, radio rescue. Radio rescue. And it's you, Jade, Josh, myself. We can have the fantastic four of hosts, and we can go into a failing radio station, tell them how much they suck, and then just completely revamp everything about them. I think that's a great idea. We would help stations across the country.
Speaker 2: All right, we gotta figure out who to pitch it to.
Speaker 3: We would have to have one of us be the mean guy, one of us be the nice guy. Josh could be the nicer one. Yeah, but then we have the three mean dudes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, three mean dudes, one nice guy. Yeah, perfect. And Jade's got to shave his head if he wants to be perfectly.
Speaker 3: I was gonna say we need a bald crew. Yeah, yeah. Everyone's gotta be bald. All right, Peaches.
Speaker 2: You just uh read a statement online. I'm guessing is that uh unpopular opinion? You are correct. And it was that staying friends with your ex is a red flag.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not a sign of maturity, is what this poster says. No, I I disagree because
Speaker 2: are you friends with any of your exes? If they want to reach out, sure. I don't think I'm friends with any of my exes. Well, the first two, like both both Jordans.
Speaker 3: Uh, they uh what's it called? Like the first one was kind of a major fallout. And I I sent her flowers um two years after we broke up to because her her father passed away. Yeah, and I was trying to be the bigger person there. She sends me a text. Did you send us flowers?
I mean, yeah, yeah, I did. And she she replies back, thanks, but no thanks. You should have saved us the turmoil and kept it to yourself. My father never liked you or didn't like you. It was my father didn't like you after the breakup happened. And so I wanted to reply, Dean Dunn, the witch is dead.
Speaker 2: But I mean, take the flowers and be grateful.
Speaker 3: Jesus didn't reply. I was like, you know what? She's probably really, really mad that you know her father's gone, that was her best friend and all of that. And so that'll forever be the last move. Not the last thing I did for her. So hopefully down the line, she's uh thinks about that and goes, you know, I was really mean to him for him doing a nice thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a nice gesture.
Speaker 3: And then the second one with her father also passed away shortly after we broke up, and I learned my lesson.
Speaker 2: Okay, ladies, don't date peaches if you have a living father. All right. Apparently, it doesn't work out well.
Speaker 3: The first one was a brain aneurysm, the second one was uh uh prostate cancer. Yeah.
Speaker 2: See, okay, as far as being friends with your ex, I'd say it it there have to be like some some rules in place.
Speaker 3: You know, you know, you're not like casually like hanging out all the time, are you?
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you were like I wouldn't want Becca to go just spend a night on the town with one of her exes or something, right? You know, um and I would I would assume she feels the same way. Um, but if it was like an occasional hello or something, I I don't know. But it's like just to me, it's like if I break up with somebody, I mean, I'm pretty much like you know it it's awkward.
Speaker 3: I don't know. As life progresses, you you gotta learn to drop the drop the the hatred and drop if they cheated, it's a whole other story.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I mean I don't hate any of them by any means.
Speaker 3: But like you just gotta drop the feud. I mean, that's the thing. It's like I've been reaching out to people that I used to talk to, I used to be friends with, like my two former friends I don't talk to anymore. I was like, you know what, let me send a text out to them. Yeah, just because one of them, he is a legitimate uh little person, and who knows how much longer he has because he was supposed to pass away in his teens. Oh, geez. And he's luckily now 30 and he's doing just fine, but he's been to the hospital, uh, not just fine. He's been to the hospital a couple times, but I'm like, dude, if I I want to make sure I make amends with him before if if he does go, yeah, you know.
Speaker 2: Well, I've I've hit up a few people recently and kind of uh fix things up. You know, I had that little tiff with uh you know, certain local podcast, I F-A-F.
Speaker 3: And he was attacking me, and I was like, I don't even know you. Yeah, like I I have only I don't think I've ever even talked to you in a f with a full sentence. It's been like hi, and that's it. And you're calling me a big dumb idiot.
Speaker 2: Like, and it's he I think he just I got under his skin. Right. And so he fired back at us. But yeah, we're we're we're getting along fine now. Everything's cool there. Um I have talked to a few people recently I hadn't talked to in a long time. Uh Howie Rock hit him up. I missed that guy. That was cool. I had to let him know about my uh garage sale find over the weekend. I got a guitar amp for two.
Speaker 3: Oh, and the book of vinyl for Jade.
Speaker 2: Uh I did let him know about that as well. But now I got I got this uh little fender amp for a sweet deal. Uh it's gonna cost me like 10 times as much just to fix it as it uh did to buy it. But it's uh a bit of a collector's item, so I think if I fix it up, it'd be worth some dough, and hopefully it's a cool amp. It's it's fender. Fender amps are beastly.
Speaker 3: So yeah, but I was also taught it was like the going back to this post thing. I was like, you know what, I'll cheer them on to succeed in life and everything. Because I don't I don't want to be like, I hope they they they rot. Yeah, I just no one of them's a teacher now. I'm like, oh awesome, she found her calling, so that's good. Yeah, I don't know what a lot.
Speaker 2: Oh, pretty much all of my exes are up to except for you know the mother of my children, because there's some contact there. Yeah, yeah. So that's about it. And we can't act childish. Huh? I'm just brain dead today, Peaches.
Speaker 3: I just I just said we can't wait. Should we redo this whole break? No, let's just leave it. The break is horrible. I don't want to talk about exes on the air.
Speaker 2: It's fine with me. Let's just leave it, Peaches. It's the weekend. Uh good enough.
Speaker 3: I wanted an entertaining program. I want this crap about exes, you know. Hey, dump them! Treat people with respect, you know. If they unless they cheated on you or something, then you have you have an excuse not to talk to them then.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't I don't think you should be hanging out with your exes. Yeah. You know, to peach their own. An occasional hello or something, but yeah. Like brief, too. If no back and forth texting all day, phone calls. Yeah, I guess I I I probably wouldn't like it at all.
Speaker 3: Your ex calls you in the middle of the night. Would you love me if I was a worm? Oh, jeez.
