[instrumental music plays] The Noon Hour of Madness and Mayhem, the podcast.
It's the Noon Hour of Madness and Mayhem. Hi, Peaches.
Hi.
'Sup, dude?
Why are we talking like this?
I don't know, man. I don't know, 'cause I'm, I'm... My brain is cooked by Christmas cheer. It's cooked by the Yuletide, Peaches. That's why.
While, while you were working hard, I was working on helping out our one-time Saturday Night Jank Show host, um-
Ooh!
... with what she'll be doing this, uh, or this weekend. Yeah.
We do have a special host. What's her name again?
Roxy Romance. [instrumental music plays]
Roxy Romance, bringing you all your favorite Jank Show love songs. Yeah, that's a special edition of Jank Show this Saturday night, kicking off at 10:00 PM. Jank Show love songs.
I had to get her picture taken. I had to get all the breaks ready to go for her. Yeah, she's, she'll, she'll be, she'll be ready.
I heard some of, uh, the stuff she was working on, and, uh, I think people are really gonna like it.
Yeah. [instrumental music plays]
You know, she's ge-... Got, bringing a little different vibe to Jank Show than you'd usually hear.
Very soothing.
Very soothing, and, um, if you have any dedications that you'd like to send out to a loved one, you can go ahead and do so by emailing Peaches. Peaches@kbair.fm.
I don't think that email works anymore.
I think it does.
I've tried it. Nothing gets sent.
Oh. Okay, try brendan@riverbendmediagroup.com, and that's spelled with two E's. Yeah.
The people will probably think you're saying Brendeen.
Bren-... Oh, that's true. Brendeen@RiverbendMediaGroup- [laughs]
It's not that.
Just figure it out and get ahold of him, or, you know, call him during Peaches' Pit Party, kicking off at 2:00, and maybe he could pass your request on to Roxy Romance. Roxy Romance hosting Jank Show this weekend.
Maybe we should just have a permanent form [laughs] on the, on the, on the apps for people to fill out for Jank Show dedications.
We should. Yeah. Birthday shoutouts. [laughs]
Oh, don't, don't get me started on that. No one cares about your eight-year-old son. [instrumental music plays]
It's the Noon Hour of Madness and Mayhem. All right, that wasn't what Peaches meant to talk about last time, I guess.
You ready for some outrage?
Yeah.
Uh, Disney has decided to partner with OpenAI-
What?
... and invest $1 billion in the, uh, artificial intelligence juggernaut, as well as ink a licensing deal that would allow users of its AI video creation platform, Sora, to create clips using iconic characters from Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars franchises.
Wow.
So that means we'll see videos of JFK, Tupac, Darth Vader, Mr. Incredible, all of our favorites together.
[laughs] Okay.
Causing mayhem.
Very nice.
As a w- uh, we've already seen Billy Mays popping up.
Dude, Sora is pretty weird, and I haven't fired it up in, I don't know, a couple weeks or something like that. I, I need to make some new Sora videos.
I can't wait to make a Sora video of me pushing Carl from Up out of the way from the self-checkout line.
[laughs]
'Cause he's an old man. He's taking too long.
A- and now are they gonna license out... Yeah, did you say Pixar?
Yeah, I just said Pixar-
Oh.
... uh, Marvel, and, uh, Star Wars.
But they're not gonna throw Mickey Mouse out there and things like that, it sounds like.
I don't think so. No.
No. They don't want you monkeying with their, you know, strongest, you know, uh, icons, I guess.
Mickey Mouse tries selling you a $30 Dole Whip, so you beat him up.
[laughs]
That's a great Sora video.
All right, well, uh, it's gonna get real weird, Peaches, in the next year, [laughs] with this AI stuff. I've... I don't even know what to expect, and hopefully we'll get to the point that you and I can just program ourselves, and we don't have to do, like, anything anymore.
Sure.
You know, we just type in a prompt, our radio show's done, you know, the, we, we can throw ourselves out on video content. Nobody will know the difference.
Well, sometimes I get, like, sort of, uh, I, I get aggravated because I have to do the afternoon show and also work on some more important things.
Mm-hmm.
And so sometimes I'm like, "Could I just have somebody host the afternoon show for me?"
Yeah.
This would be awesome.
It's what I needed this morning when I was multitasking Christmas, uh, madness, you know? But the, uh, Christmas tasks have been complete, so since I can't clone myself yet, I've, I've just had to mentally exhaust myself.
I'm not ready for this, like, just boring time of the year. Like, there's Christmas and all of that, right? But for radio, everything shuts down.
Oh, yeah. I've talked to a number of reps this week. As of Friday, the indus- the industry is shut down, yeah.
And I haven't gotten an email back from any single one of them, so I feel like they're a- they're already gone.
Oh, yeah, yeah. They're, they're checked out mentally, for sure.
Yeah.
But they're gonna be, like, gone, gone for the next couple weeks. You know, probably till it- at least the first week of January.
Well, we gotta do some sort of, some, something to help us with our shows-
Ooh, ah
... in, in those coming weeks, just to have something there, 'cause I, I hate just doing a show with nothing to talk about.
Yeah, maybe I'll try to come up with some call-in topics. Get people calling us while they're all on vacation, since I get to take no Christmas vacation.
I'm not taking that.
Yeah.
I'm not taking anything close to Christmas, because the, the flights are like $700.
Yeah. I'd, I'd like to take the day after Christmas off. That'd be great, but no PTO. No time off for me.
Wait, we're supposed to come back the day after Christmas?
Yeah.
Oh, forget that. I'm gonna put in my PTO request right now.
[laughs] Oh, good for you.
[laughs]
Same with the day after New Year's.
I'm not, I'm not coming in the day after Christmas. Are you kidding me?
Yeah, and I think New Year's is on a, a Thursday, too, so we'd have to come in... Yeah, on the 2nd, on a Friday.
All right.
So-
I'm gonna go grab a vacation request form.
Well, [laughs] again, oh, good for you. [instrumental music plays] It's the Noon Hour of Madness and Mayhem. I'm Victor Will.
I'm Peaches, and as I was driving to Ross to get Victor his new pal-
My new elf
... I, uh, saw this particular car and took a picture of it. I was gonna post it in the KBUR group, but I didn't wanna share their license plate.
Okay.
And basically, like, you know, just-
Shame them?
Shame them, but... I, is this legal? We should ask Lieutenant Crane.
[instrumental music plays] Okay, let me look a little closer.
These are headlights in replacement of the brake lights.
Yeah, um, I don't believe you're supposed to have white bulbs facing [laughs] backwards.
I did a comparison-
[laughs]
... uh, to the car next to it, because when I was pulling up to the intersection, I thought this car was facing the other way.
Yeah, it looks like it is. I had to get, uh, real close to it-
And-
... to see.
... I saw this car drive off. It is a real piece of junk.
[laughs]
Uh, I, I can tell it was someone's, like, project, who might be lacking funds.
Ah. Like, what you gotta do if you're in that situation, I think you can go to, you know, like, O'Reilly's and buy, like, red tape that's kinda clear. Um, so you can put that over it as a temporary fix. You know, you still might get pulled over, but I, I think it'll get you by. I'd have to... That, that is a great question for Lieutenant Crane. I know that's illegal, what you showed me. [laughs]
[laughs]
But can you just put tape over... You know, or a, a red cellophane and duct tape it over your rear-facing headlights like that person, and have it count as brake lights? So, when they hit their brakes, did they get even brighter?
No, that, that's, that's it stopped.
Okay.
So, like-
When they started going-
... it was-
... did they get a little more dim?
... it, it was the same brightness, I think.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Yeah, that-
There was no-
S-
... I don't think there was, there was even a blinker [laughs] on this guy's car [laughs].
[laughs] That, nobody has any way of knowing you're stopping? Like, that's, that's dangerous. You're gonna scare people out on the road.
It's also dangerous if it starts to snow, 'cause look how low it is.
Oh, my God, that is a, a low-riding vehicle. Don't take that over a curb. Maybe that's [laughs]
The worst-
... loss of headlights.
The worst is when you see one of these vehicles and they go, uh, into, like, a parking lot, and there's that dip cup thing-
[laughs]
... and you hear, you hear that. Oh.
Yeah. Yeah. Th- th- this ain't no area to have a, a low-riding vehicle in.
Which is shocking because Ben from The Advocates has that sweet Corvette, and you're like, "Please."
I think, I think he got rid of it.
Did he?
Yeah.
Okay.
'Cause, uh, you know, you can't drive it for a big chunk of the year.
Yeah.
So-
It's like those people that own motorcycles around here. Like, why would you?
Well, you, you... At least a motorcycle is... I don't know. You could leave town, I guess.
At least in California you could lane split when it comes to driving a motorcycle. And when traffic is at a standstill, you're on that motorcycle just, you know, flipping everybody off going, "Yeah, look at me."
I'd be too afraid-
[laughs]
... that somebody was gonna whip out in front of me or open their door or something like that. Yeah.
No, no kidding. Yeah, you get that one jerk that just decides, "Hey, watch this."
[laughs] Exactly. Somebody, you know, need... Like, the other day when I was getting over the flu, I hacked something up and so I opened my door, [laughs]-
[laughs]
... at, in an intersection and hocked tuah on the ground. [laughs]
You're that gross guy-
And my kids were like-
... hocking up a loogie [laughs].
My kids are like, you know, "That's disgusting, Dad. That's the most Idaho thing I've seen." I'm like, "Well, yeah, that's where we're at [laughs]."
No, you didn't have a true dip cup with you [laughs]?
[laughs] That's right, I need my Copenhagen snus.
[laughs]
Hock tuah. [instrumental music plays] It's the noon hour of madness and mayhem. I'm Victor.
I'm Peaches.
And we were just off-air talking about, uh, podcasters 'cause recently heard some podcaster trashing on radio. Uh, it, it happens. It's not the first time I've heard a podcaster trash on radio.
Those who can't do radio, do podcasts.
There you go [laughs].
It's like those who can't do, teach?
[laughs] 'Cause that topic actually came up when I did about an hour podcast with the guys from Last Podcast on the Left a few months ago. And I was asking them about podcasters who trash on radio, and Henry Zebrowski, on one of the biggest podcasts in the world, said that podcasters who trash on radio are stupid.
Both of those guys are too funny.
Too funny.
Like, they're, there's just a whole other realm they're in.
And I got such new respect doing that with them because you didn't need to edit them at all. Like-
No, they're, they're on top of it.
They're on top of it. Those guys have the kinda skill that they could actually do radio. But if you watch video of a lot of podcasts, they edit the crap out of 'em to make 'em sound good. We, we don't have the time to sit down and edit our radio shows every day. You know, we get out, we do a live show. Whatever happens, happens. If we fall on our face, if we suck, you get to hear it. We don't edit it out to make ourselves sound better. We just do what we do on a daily basis, and that's what you get.
There are podcasts that heavily edit their thing, their, their, their shows, and then you get Joe Rogan who should edit some parts out.
[laughs] Exactly.
Because you hear the old man sounds, you'll hear the, uh, the, them trying to do, like, just th- they're, they're smoking stuff. [laughs]
[laughs]
Like, just please, get to the conversation.
Well, and even Joe Rogan edits stuff 'cause I saw, uh, another podcast where they were talking about being on Rogan, and they mentioned that he'll say to him, like, "Oh, are you sure you want that to get out there? You know, maybe we should chop that part out." So, there is editing that happens.
Well, I can only imagine 'cause it's respect for the, for the guest.
Yeah.
'Cause they'll, they'll say something, they might slip up saying something that's really, really bad-
Mm-hmm
... and they, they don't want to have come out.
Exactly. Like, that's what we got a dump button for 'cause [laughs] we're live. And sometimes you'll second guess and be like, "Oh, I don't know if I, I wanted to say that."
[laughs]
Or accidentally swear. You know? So-
I did almost mess up saying the, uh, Dethklok Amon Amarth tour.
Ah, you gotta be careful with that one.
Yeah.
[laughs]
The Amonklock Conquest.
Uh, I'm amazed you even gave it a shot, Peaches. And we're pre-recording this with no edits. There ain't no dump button in the voice tracker. So, then we would had to go in and, just like most podcasts, manually edit it out. It's a pain. It takes so much time.
The worst is when you mess up a word like country-
[laughs] Yeah
... or continue.
[laughs] Yes.
Or you stop in the middle of saying it.
Yes. And you have to make sure you quickly get to the next part of the word.
I did get a text one time 'cause I, I was, uh, doing something. I was pre-recording the show, and then I went back to my place 'cause I had, like, one of those, uh, those handymen, one of those mechanics showing up to my place. Or mechanics? The maintenance guy showing up to my place. And one of the, one of our listeners texted me, "Hey, you said this word on the air," and I listened to it. No, I just messed up saying, uh, continue.
Exactly.
Or continent.
[laughs] Just don't try words that start with a C. Yeah, I, I almost spilled [laughs]-
[laughs]
[laughs] I thought that, that would've not been good.
See you next Tuesday.
Yeah, that would've been really bad. [laughs] But yeah, you know, just take a look sometime. I know a lot of people listen to podcasts. If they put 'em out in a video format, watch the video.
And you see them jump.
You s- And it's like watching a YouTuber, where their head just jumps around. It, you, you can see how heavily edited some of these are. S-
I'll edit down videos because I really want to have people just not have their time wasted watching a three-minute-long video. Like the video of you opening up your new Fender guitar.
Well, yeah, sure, that makes sense. But, eh, if, if you're the type of person... I wouldn't trash a podcaster for editing their show. It's, you know, what you do. But hearing podcasters trash on radio is just so funny to me, because podcasting is the same as radio. Especially this particular show, all they do is the same content you hear on every radio show around the country, the little segments-
"Coming up, why we have this."
[laughs] Eh, eh, eh- exact-... They tease and everything. So, that, I found it pretty funny.
"On today's show we have insert inside joke here."
[laughs] And then they throw in commercials and sponsors in the middle, you know, live reads. It's like, how is that different than a radio show, aside from you sat down and probably spent five times the amount of time you did talking editing the thing to make it look good?
We should've, uh, done a whole Noon Hour just trashing Tom Segura when he was in Idaho Falls. Because, uh, apparently he's like, eh, uh, even more so against radio. I heard Bert Kreischer was just on The Woody Show, and Bert was talking to Tom that morning, and was like, "Yeah, I'm about to go in and do radio." And Tom goes, "Radio? Why would, why would you do radio for?"
Tom's gotten to be pretty insufferable.
Right.
Yeah.
So I, we should've spent some time trashing him, just to see if he would even notice.
That Bert was cold?
Or if some listener would, like, reach out [laughs].
We were doing a live show when Bert Kreischer showed up to do an interview with you, and we just kept going.
Yeah.
Yeah, and we rolled with the moment.
Well, Bert seems like he's just a, a, like, a person's person.
Yeah, he-
If that makes any sense.
Totally. He's, he's a good dude, seemed very fun. I wish I would've got to hang out with him, but we were in Pokey watching Mudvayne, so didn't get to go to their show.
I mean, we could've just, like, driven our way back real fast to find out what bar Bert and the crew were at.
Yeah.
'Cause usually Bert goes to a bar right after the show.
I think I was just tired by the end of that.
Yeah, me too. No, we had a lot of stuff that we had to prep for that day.
Yeah. It, that, those were busy times. Didn't we do, like, four shows in a week or something?
Yeah. I, I, I went to four different concerts, four different interviews, or something like that. It was ridiculous.
Yeah, it was wild. So, looking forward to hopefully getting some holiday rest.
We have a tough life, interviewing our favorite artists-
[laughs] Oh, oh
... going to concerts.
It's so tough [laughs].
