play Play pause Pause

The noon hour of Madness and Mayhem, the podcast. It's the noon hour of Madness and Mayhem. I am Peaches. I'm Victor. I'm Jeff.

And that's Jeff. Jeff, new to the team here at River Bend Media Group. He's got the poor job of having to assist Jade. Somebody's gotta do it. Well, I I hope you survive.

He's, he's very mean, Jade Davis. How is it dealing with the most awkward man on the planet? You know, I might be more awkward than him, so I think I'm gonna do okay. Alright. Alright.

He's bound he's challenging him to the awkwardness. Well, you know, and Jade's pretty awkward, especially the older he gets, you know, with that straightened beard. I was telling my buddy Nick about Jade's straightened beard. I just barely straight. He's like, dude, man, don't straighten his beard.

What would it look like if he didn't straighten it? Just curly? Yeah. He says it's just, you know, like a normal beard. You know?

I don't know. It it just looks like, I don't know, strung out Dumbledore. Not Dumbledore. What's the who's the guy? Rasputin?

Some yeah. Like that. Rasputin. That's what he looks like. I told him when we were in Salt Lake, I was gonna chuck a full glass of water in his face to mess up his straightened beard.

He was very unnerved by that. He didn't like that idea. So yeah. I don't know. Did I miss anything interesting around here last week?

It wasn't too much. It was nice to have the studio by myself. I got a whole bunch of stuff done for the other channels, Alt and Cannonball. Got a lot of stuff done. Way to do your job.

Because I'm preparing for my week off, and, yeah, I'm excited for it. But every single time I I book a flight, there's magically all these articles about people causing havoc on planes, and there was that one influencer who, had the case of the, you know, number two, but but in the most horrible way possible that she basically caused a hazmat, a biohazard crew to go onto the plane and clean up after her, and they had to cancel the next flight Oh, that's great. Just because she had an undercooked burger in Portugal. Yeah. People.

Don't eat weird foods. Alright? Shouldn't be that difficult. You know? Dude, you need to, like, you need caffeine or something.

You're not this, like you just sound a little sound so lethargic. Bringing the whole show down. Yeah. Well, I'm trying. Make Jeff talk.

Jeff, tell us about yourself, buddy. You know? I'm a guy. I like to go float. Okay.

I mean, who doesn't like that? And if you don't, really, you shouldn't live in Idaho, I think. Peaches did great floating recently. Oh, yeah. Bring that up.

It worked out quite well for Peaches first time. It's not that hard. You just sit in a floaty device and go down the river. My kayak filled with water, and then I top I topped over and, yeah, landed. And I just swum to the some guy's boat nearby.

It was fun. Yeah. I saw a lot to say the least. Saw a lot of people floating on my, drive from Bozeman yesterday. You know, like, full on raft.

Oh, yeah. That's good white water country up there. Yeah. Yeah. It was really nice.

It was a nice drive. Hadn't been to Bozeman in a long time. You know, it's it's a pretty cool town other than that they wanna kill all the pedestrians like I mentioned earlier. Yeah. I mean, less people.

Like people. Yeah. Sure. Yeah. If you come with that If you got a car Less traffic.

Got a car or a truck, you're good. But people, they don't like them. Right. Wanna take them out. No.

None of the crosswalks worked, like, anywhere. They were just turned off. Just playing a human frogger the entire time? Pretty much. Pretty much.

That's how they get their entertainment. Let's put all the college kids on the road and see if we can get them. That might be it. The old timers there, they hate those, you know, young people. You know, you know, when call when with colleges, a lot of people from all over the place go to those schools.

Mhmm. So they don't want those outsiders. Yeah. I saw another article a few minutes ago where some, like, political talk show with 10,000,000 listeners was telling all of their listeners to move to Idaho. They're not and it's a show that's not even from here.

It's like, no. Don't move here. Alright? But by the fourth time somebody says, hey. Stay out of my state.

That's when the Californian goes, oh, maybe I shouldn't move there. Yeah. It doesn't seem to stop them. What do we need to do? I think stupid Facebook comments just overall need to stop.

Maybe we should, change Wikipedia and start making, like, fake tourism web pages that talk about how Idaho has been taken over by liberals from California and, you know, it's basically another Portland, Oregon, and maybe maybe people stop moving. I don't yeah. We we can do better than that. Yeah. Just stop posting all your fun pictures of all the cool things here and let everybody know how boring it is.

Oh, yeah. Lots of, empty desert pictures. Maybe, you know, find some trashy areas, some rundown. You know? Hey.

This housing here Well, I've been doing my part by saying, the the first chance I get, I'll move out of Idaho immediately. I mean, that's just me saying that. Yeah. No. After having gone to Washington, driven through the Seattle area again, getting furious, and then just roasting in Bellingham, I was like, yeah.

Get me back to Idaho. And then Montana. Montana, the one good thing I'll say is the gas prices are low. Yeah. Here, they're terrible.

Yeah. They're not as bad as Washington, but they're still bad. Yeah. I made the dumb decision of getting my rental car for the, the trip coming up, and it's a Mercedes GLA, whatever. It's the cheapest one on Turo I could find, but it's premium gas.

And I'm wondering how expensive that's going to be in California at those stations. Just put in the regular and don't tell them. Sure. So it's buttering. I don't know what happened to the car.

It just stopped working. Yeah. Things a piece of crap. I don't know. It's the noon hour of madness and mayhem.

I am Peaches. Victor Wilt. And Jeff. Jeff, do you have any tattoos? Yeah.

I do. Okay. I've got a few of them. Alright. Peaches still hasn't got any tattoos.

That's right. When when are you gonna get your first one? Never. Never. Never.

Is that because your body is a temple? No. You we've talked about this many times before. Jeff doesn't know why. I really don't.

I'd like to know. That means he's not tuned in. He can catch up on the podcast. That's right. But we don't know which podcast.

There's the noon hour podcast. There's my show. Yeah. But you don't know which specific episode. Listen to all of them.

Well, anyway Catch up on the lore. Peaches, when are you tattooing that head? I'm not doing anything. Alright. Why don't you wanna get tattooed?

I'm not gonna do it. But why? I'm not just my mom doesn't want me to. I don't care about doing it, and that's the bottom line. My mom didn't want me to.

My mom didn't want me to either, but, man, it still happens. It's when you say, mom, shut up. I do what I want. Yeah. I'm an adult.

28 years old, mom. Getting a tattoo for my birthday. Not at all. No. You should go get a tattoo with your mom on your birthday trip.

That's a great idea. Yeah. The day she does that is the day I know pigs fly. Their tattoos they're they're not that big a deal. You know, I got a spur of the moment tattoo just the other day.

I made fun of you for it on the air. It's right here. Yeah. Yep. This is so, Jeff, Victor's the guy that said he would never ever ever get an artist's name or logo, anything like that tattooed on him.

Yes. Because he's afraid of prior scandals or anything like that that could eventually pop up about the artist. That's right. And then his defense I mean, what Victor said in his defense after I talked to him about it, he was like, well, Ozzy's dead. And so then I said, there's always Epstein's list.

There's always you know, you don't know what could pop up. That's true. But, you know, you can always cover them up too. Oh, with what? What would you cover that up on your wrist?

Let's see. You just black it out. That's the new big thing. Yeah. It's true black.

Stupid like Ronnie Reinke. Put a big x through it. Just a big something through it. Now every time you go to write something down, you go, oh, yeah. Ozzy's dead, and I have his signature tattooed on my wrist.

Yeah. Well, we wanted to get matching tattoos. Would you get matching tattoos with somebody? No. Why not?

That's stupid. Why oh, I've been in relationship for the past three months. Let's get matching tattoos. Yeah. That's a dumb crackhead decision.

No. It's not. Come on, Peaches. You gotta live a little bit. Gotta live a little bit.

Know, I I the next thing I know, all of a sudden, there's a post that I got her name tattooed on my back. It's right there. No. You that's why you'd get Ozzy's name. So then if you do break up, you're like, well, I just got an Ozzy tattoo.

Well, now you have matching tattoos and you guys are broken up. You look like idiots. Well, no. Because it's just still an Ozzy tattoo. But still, you're matching with somebody else.

So who cares? I'm just you know? You're matching with someone? Yeah. But still, it doesn't matter.

Okay. Yeah. But I That's an acceptable tattoo to get that's matching. Yeah. Because, you know, it's yeah.

If you got each other's names or something, then, you know, it can get weird. But it's just Ozzy. And Ozzy is, you know, universally beloved. There was, like, no hate on Ozzy when he passed away. It was just everybody loving him.

So I was like, that sounds like a safe bet. What if Sharon just comes out of nowhere and just says there's a huge scandal that he did back in the day? And because he already cheated on her multiple times. Yeah. He did a lot of crazy things.

I mean, there's a 28 things Aussie's done. The 28 crazy things Aussie's done, that list online that we talked about where he was shooting cats that were scratching up his car. I I know. I know he did a lot of crazy things that I don't approve of, but he was, you know, young and crazy and, he'd be got it back together. Right?

And everybody loves it. I don't think he ever got it back together. That's right. I think it was just it it became so, normal that everyone just went goes, oh, that's Ozzy. It's like when Snoop Dogg dresses weird.

Oh, that's just Snoop. He's allowed to do so. Yeah. I'm just, you know, trying to encourage you to get wild, Peaches. Yeah.

But what what would I even get? What what would you be be your idea? I don't know. Exactly. Like I said, this one just became an idea.

Let's get Ozzy's signature. Okay. Let's do it. So you could get a a sweet skull that looks like a peach. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

It sounds like the type of tattoo that I generated chat GPT crap you have ever said. That what kind of tattoos do you have, Jeff? I've got some aliens on one arm. Yeah? Aliens are cool?

Band lyrics on the other arm. Oh, what band lyrics? Newfound glory. Oh, you emos. No wonder him and Jada been friends for years.

Yeah. I've I've just got Skoll's and, Ozzy tattoo. You know? Oh, tough guy. So peaches, you could get, let's see.

What do you like? I mean, peach stuff. We know that. That's all you know about me too. It's just the peach stuff.

Oh, his name's peach. How about you? He likes peach stuff. A picture of Shaq tattooed on his own. So that way, if the scandal pops up about him, it just I have a random picture of some giant guy.

Yeah. Then you could do it life-sized even. Paint? Yeah. Okay.

Did you see when Steve O gave himself a tattoo of himself on his back? Sure. So you do that, but you start at your head, and you have Shaq's face tattooed on the back of your head, and it just goes down your whole body. Again, dumbest thing I've ever heard. Dumbest thing.

Gotta live a little bit, peaches. Gotta get wild. Continuing the noon hour of Madness and Mayhem, I am Peaches. I'm Victor Wilt. And I am Jeff.

Alright. Do you have the notes up on the, the River concert series for tomorrow? You can pull that up? Yeah. I can usually do so.

Pull it up, peaches. Pull up that that listing. Pull up that list, peaches. What what am I, Jamie and your Joe Rogan? That's right.

Pull up that list. Wish version of him. That's for sure. The wish he was me. Yeah.

Right. You keep getting lower and lower. What's what's wrong with that? I think the chair is, like, just sinking. It's yet another chair that peaches broke.

Yeah. Blame me for your fat butt. I am, packing on the pounds recently. Alright. I have it pulled up.

Okay. What's the name of the band playing? The Knott Brothers FA, something like that. Yeah. But what kind of a description for the band is that?

I didn't write that. I know. I'm just wondering what it means. I was about to ask you the same thing today. I'm glad you reminded me because I don't know what cowboy corn is either.

Yeah. Is that a music genre you're aware of, Jeff? Cowboy corn. Like, Korn the band or Korn the vegetable? I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. The way Victor turned around right there, he looked like Mike Wazowski for because all I see is the top of his head. I'm gonna keep shrinking lower, lower, and lower. Okay.

Yeah. I just saw that, and I'm like, what in the heck is cowboy corn? I typed in cowboy corn genre, and sure enough, all I got was a video of from In the Kitchen with Talil Faye, How to Make Cowboy Corn. Okay. Maybe that's what they're doing, a performance art piece.

Should we, call Josh real quick and see if he's actually in the classy studio? Yeah. See if he knows what cowboy corn is. I'm sure he's on his lunch because this is You. Hey, Josh.

You wrote the liners for the River concert series. Right? Yeah. What in the world is Cowboy Korn when it comes to the Knott brothers? So, here's the deal.

I'd asked that question this morning, and I found out that they do country style music, but they also do some storytelling and stuff. That's the corn part. Oh, so it's, corny. I don't know about that as much as I know it's corn. I like corn.

They're out here talking your ear off. They're not doing the Jonathan Davis like or some pop ups. Helping country covers of Korn songs. I don't think it's that. That's a big letdown.

Somebody should talk to him about getting that in their set. Yeah. They should have at least one Korn song. Come on. Well, I'm glad Josh knew because, yeah, the Victor was asking me.

I'm like, hey. I just stole this liner from the Josh Tyler. Yeah. Yeah. Like everything else.

That's right. Only I do it better. Yeah. By the way, Josh, Josh saw the guy from Fred Meyer, you know, the little cartoony guy. I'll I'll send you this.

I'll I'll I'll I'll show it to you. Because, yeah, I have no idea. Josh, like, never texts me. Right? Mhmm.

He says, hey, dot dot dot dis you? And sends a picture of that guy. I did see that guy, Fred Meyer, the other day. I don't know why it didn't occur to me. Peaches.

That's me. It's the peaches, you know, AI version. What what was I selling again? Like, what what was it? A buck 9?

You're just promoting low prices every day, baby. That's right. Well, Josh, thank you for the zero insight on cowboy corn. But Storytelling. Storytelling.

So it's like we play a country song, and then I wonder what kind of stories. I hope it's got a cowboy poetry. Yeah. Well, there there's that Without my sick shooter. Well, thank you, Josh.

Appreciate that. Yep. Alright. I don't know if that's a great way to promote it, storytelling with cowboys. But they're gonna play country songs too, and it's free.

So that that's also, like, you know, we're talking to the K Bear audience, not the the hawk. Yeah. That's farm country. The K Bear audience could go out and be like, you know, got the life. Telling away from me.

So we're telling our listeners to show up. And just request Korn songs? And request Korn. Yes. Okay.

Tomorrow night, 7PM at the Greenbelt Stage, the River Concert Series. It's free, and you can request all the corn songs you could possibly imagine. No. I did see a bluegrass cover of emergence from sleep token on TikTok. Do you think they could possibly do that?

Oh, man, dude. I I I bet that would be pretty awesome. That bluegrass show I went to, Friday, one of the best concerts I've ever seen. It was crazy. Good for you.

Yeah. Like, Billy Strings Billy Strings might be the best guitarist out there right now. It's cool. Wrapping up the noon hour of Madness and Mayhem, I Am Peaches. Victor Wilt.

And Jeff? Now I posted this on the Caber page. I don't know if either of you guys saw this, but it's the Nine Inch Nails, Ryder. I did see this. It's is that real?

It looked real. Because I don't think Trent Reznor is saying every day. He's like, you know, it says e r r y d a y. I don't think he's shortening up every day. Every day.

I don't think he's the type to speak like that. You know? Cowboy corn bands speak that way. Cowboy corn. Air day.

Give us some of that, citrus and some cheese. Now I wouldn't mind Trent giving us stories in between songs at all. Yeah. Yeah. That'd be good.

But it was a very healthy, band writer. Yeah. I don't know if you saw this, Jeff. It says what is it? Solitude?

Like, there's different rooms for what they do where they are? Yeah. They they must have a variety of backstage So spaces. In the Solitude Room, he wanted or the band wanted one small plate or bowl of sliced lemons and then another small organic fruit basket. No.

Alright. It says to include bananas, Granny Smith apples, specifically Fiji Gala apples. Then you got the band room where they wanted a small bowl of organic sliced limes, another fruit basket with bananas, grapes, and fresh local fruit, a gourmet cheese platter. And then this is with very nice fancy cheese varieties separate from meats for vegetarian with a high presentation, please, with two exclamation points. Okay.

Now look up a Pantera tour rider, and let's see how it compares. A giant thing of dip. I'm guessing there's gonna be multiple bottles of Jack Dan. It's gotta be one from, like, the nineties. Okay.

Pantera backstage rider. This was posted on the smoking gun. Alright. Does it have a date? Bunch of drunks is what someone commented.

Alright. I see one and a half liter liter bottle of Seagram seven whiskey, three one and a half liter bottles of Crown Royal whiskey, one one and a half liter bottle of Sky vodka, 72 does that say 72 or is that 12? 12 each Coors Light beer cans, 12 bottles of Corona Light beer, 12 packs of bottles of local beer, 60 bottles, five liters of Evian or Deja Blue bottled water, and then 30 cans of Coca Cola, no substitutes, 12 cans of Pepsi, six cans of Diet Coke, 12 cans of Doctor Pepper, six cans of seven Up, 55 fries, 55 taco no. I'm just kidding. I'm like, six cans of seven Up, six cans of diet seven Up, 12 small clubs.

So There's no food. There's no food. I see a fruit tray, a veggie tray. Oh, okay. And then I see a scented candle, good aromatherapy candles, one pack of incense, and two ashtrays each for each member.

Wow. And 12 cans of Red Bulls. Now there's somebody that posted the Steve Martin rider, I think, in the comment section. Okay. I need to go to the Khabar page because he was saying how it was the best rider he's ever seen.

I hope it's as good as Pantera's. Let's see here. Do I click on this? Is this gonna be some, like, faulty link? I'm I'm kind of concerned.

It's the work computer. So oh, no. Steve Martin's tool rider leaked from stevemartin.com. I feel like this must be a joke that he specifically requested, like, these different things in order for just to see if the venue would do it. Yeah.

I mean, you you hear that, like, with, who was it, Van Halen wanting all brown M and M's and Yeah. I see an Amtrak seat, a yoga ball, a gurney, a tricycle with tray table rigged on handlebars, one tiny Icelandic horse. Okay. Yeah. It's just a joke that Steve Martin sent out.

I'm assuming, yeah, he put it on his website. Bookers would go look and go, what? Right. And yeah. That's the way to get them to find out if they actually read it.

Sorry we couldn't get the mini horse, but we got all this other crap for you. Yeah. Sometimes those band writers are pretty interesting to read. Some artists are very picky. What would you include in yours?

Oh, in mine? We'll start with one theme for you, then we'll move on to Jeff then me. Okay. I'm gonna need a let's see. I I like the meat and fruit trays.

You know, you gotta have a snack. Alright? Start with a snack. And then, you know, probably some, like, quality IPA. Is there any IPA that's locally available?

You know, I'd have to be picky about it. I'd have to lay down some some rules. There was a particular place we were at where they only had the one IPA available, and you went, this is this is garbage. I want something different. Gonna say what it was.

Yeah. Exactly. But That's why I came here. Very particular. And I was like, this is the only one.

I guess I'll take it, but this thing sucks. I honestly forgot where that was, to be quite honest with you. Can remind you off air. Okay. Good.

Yeah. It We were at a place together recently. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

So one very specific IPA brand Mhmm. Some Jeff, what would you put in yours? Oh, I'm going for a big plate of nachos, brisket nachos. Oh. Brisket nachos.

And then probably some Diet seven Up. Okay. Alright. Peaches, what about you? I feel like I'd be the one like, I would prove that I'm the real Californian.

Be like, hey. The charcuterie board with some avocado slices. Cheese. Yeah. Charcuterie boards are great.

You know? That's, that's some good eating. But, Some, Tums to make sure nobody gets acid reflux. No. We're wondering hardcore.

That's a really good idea. You're right. We would need Tums and, like, you know, all all kinds of over the counter just medications. What if I get a headache? Yeah.

You should have have you shown Jeff your pill bottle that you have? No. But I have it. I forgot it this morning after I get a does. Victor is the pill supplier.

If you ever have a headache, acid reflux, heartburn, anything of that sort Good to know. There's a Yeah. I just keep a a variety of they're all, you know, like, legal. They're all legal. I I just like to say pill supplier because it's funny.

But There's, like, allergy meds in there. There's all kinds of stuff. We went to Cody Jinx a couple years ago in the Sandy Amphitheater. He comes in to the truck with a fanny pack of sunscreen and everything, like, rolled out almost in alphabetical order of the different medications that he could possibly bring on the trip with him. Yeah.

And usually, I don't take, like, any of them, but it's just in case. Just that's good to have. Yeah. You wanna have that first aid kit. Exactly.

So I've just whittled it all down and put it in one little convenient bottle I can put in my pocket. And, I'm sure if, you know, I ever get, like, searched by the police, they're gonna be like, what? Listen. We got a major bus, dear. Yeah.

We got a and it's like vitamin b. Your rider is like Pantera's writer, but it's just a list of medications for each one. Ibuprofen, Tums, some Zyrtec. All all the, venues think you're some kind of drug addict? Yeah.

And it's just vitamins and various Don't forget to add, like, the giant drum of hand sanitizer. Oh, you gotta have some hand sanitizer. Because Victor is also the guy, Jeff. He's kinda turning into Howie Mandel the older he gets where he's like, I don't wanna shake hands with anybody. And when it's I'll shake hands with people, but I'll wash my hands after.

Yeah. He'll make it obvious that he's like, I don't wanna touch that person and then wash his hands. Or if something like, if a listener runs up and hugs him, he'll be like, ew. You know, ew. Back he'll back away.

Well, you know, it depends. Depends on the listener. You know? If it's crazy Jay, put Victor. You know?

I get pretty j hug. You know? But other listeners would be like, when's the last time you showered? Alright? Because that stinks gonna rub off on me.

Ever hugged somebody and their stink rubs off on you? I hate that that's a sweaty guy at the metal shell. Just start wearing a raincoat to them, then it it won't matter. You can just take the raincoat off, and you're good to go again. That is a good idea.

It would look pretty hardcore if you just showed up to the Mountain America Center the next time with just, like, I don't know, like, a hazmat suit on. Yes. Just go get, like, 50 of those little disposable rain ponchos and keep those with you all the time. Hand them out to the crowd. Are you afraid of sweating people?

Put this on. You make it pretty obvious, like, after one of those listeners hugs you that you're like, okay. I gotta change now. This guy got sweat disgusting all over me. Go in the stall and just change my clothes, burn the other ones.

Yeah. Has to be done sometimes, peaches. The noon hour of Madness and Mayhem is a production of Riverbend Media Group. For more information or to contact the show, visit riverbendmediagroup.com.
