Pre-Friday vibes are strong as Peaches preps for his trip back to Southern California for ACDC at the Rose Bowl — and this episode of Peaches Pit Party hits everything from food truck sticker shock to kids making trading cards out of old men. Yes, really.

Inside today’s show:

• Peaches reflects on travel style, MySpace-era friend ranking, and how adult friendships slowly stretch across the country
• Viktor’s out, Traffic School is TBD, and Lieutenant Crane may or may not come to the rescue
• To Peach Their Own question of the day: “What’s something you didn’t realize was expensive until you had to buy it?”
  Call-ins and Reddit answers include:
  • Toilet paper
  • Outdoor furniture
  • Veterinary care
  • Bras, child care, birthday parties, and oh yeah... weddings
• The wife of Weezer’s bassist is shot in a bizarre LAPD standoff, then immediately un-arrested — Peaches unpacks the media chaos
• Yeshiva and Lemon College both break historic losing streaks in baseball — by beating each other in a doubleheader of sadness
• LeBron James gets his own Ken doll ahead of Coachella — with accessories and a $75 price tag
• A woman is charged $88 for four small ice creams at a food truck. Peaches goes OFF about overpriced festival food, millennial burger joints, and Cajun fries being a seasoning scam

Also:

• ACDC’s Power Up Tour kicks off in Minneapolis — Peaches scopes the merch in hopes the Rose Bowl poster isn't also $75 (but let's be real, it is)
• He prepares to face $25 beers and inevitable spilled drinks at the show
• Facebook memories remind Peaches to check for his Star Card — panic avoided, but the bald-on-ID-reveal crisis hits hard
• George Washington’s travel journal is basically a colonial Yelp review and Peaches is all for it
• A Minnesota woman literally journals her car theft in a diary that her mom turns into police. She was also a DoorDash driver. This story is flawless.

And finally:

• He pitches KBEAR DJ trading cards: Jade, Peaches, Viktor, and Lou Brutus as a rare foil edition
