## Resource

Peaches and Viktor kick this episode off by addressing the most serious issue in radio today: Viktor almost died… or at least took a nap that looked suspiciously like a medical emergency. From there, things spiral into a full-blown investigation into concert announcement hysteria—where listeners are confidently saying “pass” to a show they don’t even know yet, while others are out here building conspiracy boards trying to will Slayer into existence. They then pivot into the eternal war of “what even counts as metal,” which quickly turns into a roast session of fans who complain about literally everything—openers, genres, vibes (not that word though), and probably oxygen if given the chance. The conversation somehow evolves into niche hobbies, where collecting obscure failed movie posters sounds like a personality and Viktor admits his hobbies are basically “guitar and existing.” From there, it’s movie talk chaos: terrible stoner comedies, the confusing meta-remake of Anaconda , packed theaters in Rexburg, and the ongoing trauma of having to hear the Mario “Peaches” song more than once in a lifetime. They also debate whether kids’ movies are secretly unhinged (oops—can’t say that word, but you get it) and whether Chris Pratt should be legally allowed to voice Mario. Finally, they wrap things up by absolutely dragging radio as a whole—calling out repetitive playlists, fake personality DJs, and SiriusXM somehow being the same thing but with a subscription fee. Bonus points for an unexpected takedown of Eddie Trunk and his commitment to never letting go of hair that clearly let go of him years ago. If you enjoy two guys arguing about music, movies, and the dumbest corners of the internet while accidentally exposing how ridiculous their own industry is… this episode deliver…
