Ep. 124 - Viktor Has Seen a Dead Body and Peaches Wants to Poke One - 12/18/2025

Peaches and Viktor Wilt kick off this episode by doing what they do best: immediately questioning whether 2025 was actually a good year for rock and metal… or just aggressively fine. What starts as a debate over “Radio Song of the Year” quickly spirals into a roast of cookie-cutter radio formulas, Sleep Token dominance, Three Days Grace fatigue, and why the genre as a whole earned a solid C-minus report card. Expect brutally honest music opinions, accidental album name mix-ups, and the kind of hot takes that make record labels nervous.From there, the show takes a sharp left turn into full workplace chaos when Peaches discovers he apparently no longer exists — thanks to Lou Brutus sending one Christmas card addressed to Viktor… and another addressed to “The Studio.” This leads to Peaches being renamed “Studio,” plans to sabotage the station out of spite, and the birth of the brand-new hit show Studio Pit Party. Balloons optional.Social media stupidity gets absolutely dismantled as the guys tear into lazy engagement bait questions, questionable radio websites, and DJs pretending they don’t know exactly which artist is calling in. That naturally escalates into Peaches discovering the perfect engagement question — “Have you ever seen a dead body?” — and reading the most unhinged Facebook replies imaginable, ranging from mildly uncomfortable to “why would you post that online?”Just when you think it can’t get darker, Viktor casually drops that he actually has seen a dead body, Peaches suggests poking one, and somehow the conversation still survives FCC standards. The episode closes on a surprisingly sincere moment highlighting East Idaho’s local metal scene, including a shoutout to Godbone and a reminder that promoting your band actually matters — right before the show detonates itself again with cheating jokes and “side piece” hypotheticals.If you enjoy music snobbery, radio industry inside jokes, accidental nihilism, and laughter that probably shouldn’t be happening before noon, this episode delivers.
