Ep. 416 - I Just Want to Listen to Bon Jovi Without Getting a Lecture - 08/13/2026

Peaches Pit Party from Thursday, August 13th, 2026. With 30 just around the corner, Peaches gets into what apparently becomes a stereotypical guy hobby at that age, why he'd rather deal with cold weather than another scorching summer, and his growing frustration with rock radio chopping the heavy parts out of songs. He also talks about a college grading system that replaces traditional freshman grades with pass-or-no-credit, remembers nearly failing a video games class because of a terrible group project, runs through the latest sports stories, and discovers an app where virtual pigeons deliver your text messages — assuming the pigeon survives the trip. Peaches then gets into the bizarre world of AI-generated “brain rot” involving violent fruits and vegetables, argues that people need to stop turning every single thing they enjoy into a political statement, and reads a truly disgusting story about a guy whose girlfriend says he hasn't changed his underwear since middle school and apparently believes Dior Sauvage counts as personal hygiene. He also takes aim at people who text you with motivational messages written by ChatGPT, friends who are chronically 45 minutes late to everything, and his buddy Josh Tyler for being apparently too fancy for WinCo and too important to celebrate a podcast milestone with anything more than eight balloons and tiny cupcakes. Things get even more ridiculous when Peaches recounts Victor and Becca turning trivia night into a relationship dispute involving a shoe to the face, a White Claw to the head and a rag-based retaliation, before getting into the horrifying story of a stranger who was given someone's apartment keys while they were on vacation and decided to make herself comfortable on their couch. Plus, Peaches talks traffic safety, the latest Riverbend Awareness Project, and a ranking of the greatest sophomore albums ever made. Check me out elsewhere!
