Show Notes

Peaches wakes up fired up over a LinkedIn post claiming young people don’t listen to radio anymore, which launches a full-on debate about the future of the industry, AI anxiety, Spotify convenience, personality-driven shows, and whether radio just needs to stop playing it safe and actually let hosts talk. From there, Viktor proudly buys a physical copy of Resident Evil 9 like it’s 2006 and defends CDs, resale value, and the sacred right to lend a game to a friend. The guys then spiral into absurd ticket prices at The Sphere (including five-thousand-dollar Metallica “Snake Pit” seats), secondary market scams, and whether The Eagles are worth a Vegas flight. Peaches unloads about social media commenters who say “I wouldn’t go if tickets were free, but have fun,” and proposes paying for a version of Facebook that bans them. Meanwhile, Viktor fears he gave himself food poisoning with a two-hour countertop breakfast sandwich, the break room turns into a crime scene over stolen cookies and a mysterious bag of milk labeled with Viktor’s name, and somehow the episode ends with school milk in plastic bags and Peaches “clearing out” the East Idaho News bathroom. If you like industry hot takes, gamer nostalgia, ticket-price rage, and workplace pettiness all in one place — this is your episode.
