Speaker 2 (00:27):
One three to one Austin dot Com.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
All right, let's get this thing started to hope you
guys have a great weekend. Thanks for being with us.
It's the JB and Sandy. Our My name is Sandy.
This is JB.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Hello, Tricia is here too.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Hi everybody, and.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
If you're tuning in for the first time, we do
this every single day from seven until eight o'clock. You
can find us on social media as well on Facebook
search the JV and Sandy Morning Show. Instagram is at
JB Sandy at X. Shout out to everybody that ran
the Captain k over the weekend. Always a big turnout
for that. A little cooler weather than people were probably
(01:02):
expecting but probably welcomed weather for running a ten k yesterday.
So a lot of people turned out and also shout
out to every showed up at the Capitol yesterday for
your protest of the week.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I was like seven thousand people.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Oh really, I missed that. Yeah, there's a lot of
people that love the occasion. What do we approach? What
are we mad about today? Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Dose and dose and tariffs and yeah, everyone's an expert
on tariffs and government now a sudden. Last year they
were experts on viruses and the flu.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
And you know, it's just a lot of people. They
really know a lot. I feel so dumb, just so
so stupid.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Some people that did some good stuff this weekend as well.
I loved when people just get a group of people
together and do something good. And a group called Austin
Creative Reuse and Keep Austin Beautiful got together. They gathered
up seventeen really big big trash bags and eleven bags
of recycling out of assorted creeks in the Windsor Park neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
They just went through the creek and they just cleaned
it up. You know, I love Windsor Park. You know
the neighborhood at all. It was kind of a postwar
boom neighborhood behind Capital Plaza, which was the first mall
in Austin. Yeah, yeah, and so yeah, a lot of
those homes post war, built in the fifties and sixties.
(02:31):
It was just it was like the American dream. It
was like a snapshot of mad Men in suburbia. Oh
really Yeah, yeah, it's a super super cool neighborhood. I
love it. Very Norman rock wellish. Yeah, just from the
fifties and sixties. But yeah, it's such a darling neighborhood.
(02:51):
I know that sounds stupid, but I love that. I
love that spot. Well.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
They did a great job of cleaning up the creeks
along in the Windsor Park neighborhood, and they also see
there's a bunch of opportunities to do cleanups as we
get closer and closer to Keep Austin Beautiful Day, which
I think is Saturday, this coming up Saturday Birthday on
the twenty second, And you can go to their website
for more information.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
It's keep Austin Beautiful dot com. You'll find them there.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
So I just like people to get together and do
something when they see something, you know, like the Greeks
need to be cleaned up in that neighborhood, and they
got to it. Now, I'm sure there's a neighborhood out
there that's going to be griping. It's like, oh, look, come,
you didn't come to our neighborhood. There's always that side
of it too. But a good job, JB. What was
the highlight of your weekend? Anything?
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Man?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
It's funny because, yeah, going into the weekend, we were like, oh,
it's a bachelor weekend because my wife and her mom
took a road trip to Houston hit some museums and stuff.
I did less this weekend than I ever do, Like,
I just really yeah, later on, I hardly did anything.
(04:00):
I was in bed early. I was just chilling. I
did some stuff around the house, Like, nah, I did
next to nothing.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
But didn't it feel great Sometimes that's just the greatest
thing to do and not feel guilty about it.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah, yeah, I'm just I'm just hanging out and just
it was nice. And we had my mother in law's
dog too, so it's a lot of dog time. Didn't
you take your did you do and your daughter do
a bike ride? Though? Well she ended up riding with
her boyfriend. Oh uh and so yeah, no, but uh,
I did get her a new bike a couple of
(04:37):
weeks ago. She's twenty three and she so they ended
up going I didn't go on that, like honestly, I
did nothing this weekend. But she had such a great time.
But so I was like, okay, step one, let's we
went and bought Uh this is Friday or Saturday, it
doesn't matter. But we were like, okay, you passed the test.
(04:58):
You went and rode like ten miles. Did you butt her? Yes?
All right. We went and got her some cycling shorts. Cool,
you know, some gear. Yeah. Yeah, I'm like, okay, step one,
you showed up in your road. Now, now you need
a decent pair of shorts. And so anyhow got her
a couple of things like that, and and uh, you know,
I'm so it's so classic JB. I'm like, all right,
(05:21):
you're ready for a roofrack on your I know. So
she's got an old wagon, an old station wagon, and
she already has a roof rac. So I'm like, we're going.
We went to rack Attack, which is out towards the airport,
and got like and I just I can't help myself.
I should just get her like the base level bike thing. Yeah,
(05:45):
but I know what's the best?
Speaker 3 (05:47):
You got the top of the line.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I got the top of the line.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, I'm guilty like that too, of getting I'm a
big believer in having the right gear for whatever you're
doing is important and having you know, not I don't
have to buy the best of the best, but decent,
you know good.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Yeah, it's worth it. Yeah, it's It's funny. I've told
like a lot of people know, I've been riding bikes
cycling for years and I'm like, the good stuff is
worth it. It costs more for a reason. It's better material,
it's more comfortable, it will last longer. Don't skimp on
that stuff. And I'm the same way with about stuff
for her car, like, okay, this this rack is going
(06:26):
to outlive you, like this is get this like, don't
go cheap. But did you get it off a weekend
hanging out with her though? I would imagine did you
get to put on the wagon? Is it done? Oh?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, next thing you know, she's gonna pull in your
garage with the bike on top of it.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Boom. That We had a long talk about that. I said, everybody,
everyone does that once one time.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
You can't do it twice. Yeah, but everyone does it once.
Speaking of getting your kid's stuff, it wasn't very expensive.
But I got up my daughter, our daughter Tris, when
I was a fifteen year old, some proper running shorts
because she's been working very hard on reaching a goal
and to pass a test that she needs to pass
for her Navy rotc And she met her goal on
(07:13):
Friday and blew it. It really shattered the goal and
kicked a butt and I was like, well, you're right now,
you need some new gear. Let's get you. Yeah, but
you let her earn it, yes, of course.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:25):
Well she had that one pair of shorts on that
she were on Friday when she broke the goal, and
we all three were like, I think it was the shorts.
The gear's the reason.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
And then I sent her a link on Amazon, go
pick out a couple of women's running shirts that you like, yeah,
and we'll get those. So, boy, you should have seen it.
It's amazing to watch kids confidence just grow when they
think they can't do something and then they start doing
the work to do it and then they do it.
It's amazing to watch I mean she was Tricia and
(07:57):
I both saw her. She was so happy when she
reached her and confident. It was cool, yeah, cool and surprised.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
She was like, I didn't think I'd ever be able
to do this, and I was like, yeah, you did.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Nice. Yeah, it was a cool moment.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
So hey, coming up on the show, well, let's just
go with what's next, Trisia. Let's keep it simple, all right,
what do you have coming up in the story, belove.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
We're going to talk about Steve Sarkesi and he has
a new addition to his family that I'm going to
ask you, guys, if you knew anything about.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
All right, stay with us.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
It's coming up on Austin's eighties station what O three
point one and streaming on the iHeartRadio app. And for
those of you listening to us on the iHeartRadio app,
make sure you tap that follow button and allow your notifications.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
It's Austin's eighty station one oh.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Three point one, a new addition to the Sarkesian family.
Trisia's got the story in just a moment, and the
story we'd love staying with sports named tonight, We've got
the final NCAA basketball tournament and it is the University
of Houston, the Cougars taking on Florida.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
I'm all for the Cougars. Let's get that national.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
There's only been one other team in the history of
the NCAA Tournament to win the national basketball Championship. Do
you have any idea who it was? There's only been
one team, one other team from Texas has won. As
of right now, only one Texas team has ever won
the NCAA Basketball Tournament. And it was not it doesn't
(09:20):
even use the same name anymore. It was Texas Western,
which is now UTEP, which won really a national championship,
I believe in nineteen sixty six.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Wow, I've never guessed that.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Isn't that crazy to think that Texas is I mean,
only once has won a school in which is.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Boy, you'd think we would be you just recruit.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I mean, there's just so many kids in Dallas and Houston, Austin,
San Antonio that you would find five of them that
could beat everybody else.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
You didn't think that, you just can't.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
So anyway, that game is tonight, hopefully the pull off
the victory. There was something else that was good, Oh JB.
Do you watch the Americas with the Tom watched it.
I have not seen it at all.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Now I'm so good, I'm gonna kind of ruin it
for you a little bit.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
That's okay because Tricia pointed something out about the show
that ever since she mentioned it, it's the only thing I.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Can pay attention to.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
And that's the fact that all the animals on God's
Green Earth are trying to do.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
What Trish have the sex. All they're doing is looking
for a loerver. That's it.
Speaker 5 (10:33):
Sometimes their entire life is birth to maturity, and then
they go to the place where they've been told by
their ancestors that they can find the lorve, and some
of them then make the babies and then die, and
that's their whole goal in life. But no matter what creature,
if it's a lizard, if it's an elk, if it's
a bird of some kind, all their focuses is besides eating,
(10:57):
is finding a mate.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
That's it. That's to that point, I think we expect
too much from humans. Really, we're really primal, you know,
at heart, but we we try to put ourselves on
this sophisticated pedestal. We're not We're not, We're just we're animals.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Ship and Tom just has this way of luring you
in with this great story about this pelican in the
are this flamingo and high in the Andes Mountains, And
then he's telling you the whole story, and then all
of a sudden he catches switches gears and he's like,
all this in an effort to find a lover. And
(11:42):
you're like, oh, yeah, all it always comes back to
find in a lover. And those pelicans are not pelicans. Thosemingos.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Did you see that one?
Speaker 5 (11:54):
Yeah, they like and and and when he's talking about it,
they all gather at this lake on top of the
Andes once a year or whatever, and there's like forty
thousand of them. And he said, with no visible cue
of any kind, all the flimmy goes start dancing the
dance of love, the dance of love for the boys
to attract the ladies to want to mate with them,
(12:15):
and then they mate for life.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
I think, yeah. I mean, if there were higher beings
than us on Earth, I'm sure there are elsewhere, but
they would be documenting us going. This gentleman parks his
car and goes into the nightclub to find a lover.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Tom Hanks his narrated Tom Hanks.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
He heads to the bar to drink white claw.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Time is running out. He takes his last shot.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Inhibition and hips so that he might dance and find
a lover. He will same thing. He will put himself
into financial ruin in order to time. You're very right,
that's true. Same thing. Oh that's funny stories. We love.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
Studio. So Loreal and Steve Sarkisian have announced the birth
of their baby son on Friday. They both made the
announcements on their Instagram pages. I would like to take
a side Barrol Cook and say how cool is the
name Loril Sarkisian, Just saying I think it's an amazing name.
(13:24):
It rolls up the tongue. They said that they he I'm.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Sorry, I'm sorry, real quick Sarkisian for those of you
that may not know, that's the head coach of the
University of Texas football team.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
I apologize.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Very popular as of late, Yes.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Very popular.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Yes, they said, He's arrived and our hearts are so
full of love and gratitude, they both posted on their
Instagram pages.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Steve Sarkisian is fifty one.
Speaker 5 (13:49):
The reason this is a little bit surprising to me
is because just back in July of twenty twenty four,
they announced that they were going to get a divorce.
I did a little deep math that was exactly nine
months ago from when this.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Always answered her relationship problems.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Have a kid, Yeah, I feel like they were like
before they signed the papers, they were like, let's get together,
let's talk about it.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
A little something happened, and now they have a baby
and they're staying married.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Oh, I can't imagine. And I'm just I'm giving her
some grace. Like being married to, you know, a D
one football coach, you you are second?
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Sure like that the pressure, the social pressure that I
mean the university pressure, that's pressure you put on yourself
like they live, eat and breathe that sport. You would
be second fiddle at best, right.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah, but you know what for an annual salary of mine,
I second to somebody making ten MILLI year.
Speaker 5 (14:53):
Yeah, I'd figure out any ways to entertain myself while
he was off doing the football thing.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Yeah. And sometimes it's even better when they get fired
they get the huge check.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Yeah, you'd be like the former coach at Texas Tech
that went and then coached at for the Arizona Cardinals
and he's single and he got fired and he got
paid up millions and millions of dollars.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Young guy, good looking guy. I can't remember his name,
saved my life.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
And he was like, hey, if you're looking for me,
I'm going to be in Vietnam for the next nine months.
He did. He just split and he finally came back.
He's coaching again, I think in the NFL. I cannot
remember his name.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
There's he just tacked the money and just used he
was like, all right, I'll hang out for a while. Yeah,
why well again.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
Sarkisian is fifty one and has one of his sons
is actually a junior linebacker on the Longhorns football team,
so college aged, get at least one of them.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
And now he has a brand new newborn baby.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
Oh you born at fifty one? Oh, I was thirty
five when our daughter was born, and that was that's late,
you know.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (16:02):
I had Landry when I was what thirty seven? Got
I or thirty eight? So Sandy was, you know, almost forty.
It's it is harder.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
There's a big differen between forty and fifty. Yeah, oh yeah,
oh yeah, big difference.
Speaker 5 (16:16):
He's got any money though, I got money, coach.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Baby, star Kisi, and I want to see what that
baby looks like.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
It sharks in pretty good shape, so he can get
up and down off the ground a whole lot easier
than I could at Fish. Sure you think I'm joking
you young people out thirty laughing. Oh, how hard can
it be to get up down off the ground with
your baby?
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, it can be hard.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
It can be hard.
Speaker 5 (16:38):
All the things that the older people say that as
a young person, you're all, yeah, yeah, whatever, it's not
gonna happen to me. Happens. It totally happens, you guys.
They say it for a reason.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
I'm trying to stay in shape for, you know, the
day I become a grandparent. Yes, I want to be
able to move, you know, and do whatever I need
to do. Just motivating.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
I told our daughters, like, don't wait to be thirty
eight before you have a kid like I did, because
then i'll be seventy six and too old to take
care of that baby. She won't let me have it
for like a weekend or something. I'll be so she's
gotta gonna get knocked up early.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
That's funny. Did they say the name of the kid.
Speaker 5 (17:13):
No, But I want to know because how cool last
her Keysines is such a cool last name.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (17:19):
When I know that baby's name and I want to
see a picture of that baby, well they're going.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
To keep that private for a little while.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Trisia sounds so country sometimes that baby.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
So country ass sometimes like I just want to see
that baby.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
I don't care I do.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
That is the story we love.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
As Tricia said, people were acting fools at the Bass
Concert Hall for the production of Hamilton Especial.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
You saw it right.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
I saw it. I saw it on a girl's trip
in London.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
I am not a musicals person, but I loved it
from the first note to the last.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
I absolutely loved that musical.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
And I can't imagine if what happened to the people
who went to see it at Beast Concert Hall this
weekend had happened to me when I saw it, i'd
be furious.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
I'm not exactly sure it happened last week because I
found I saw this on Reddit, and sometimes Reddit the
time warp there. You never know when it pops up.
It doesn't matter it happened. And here's what the reddit
or posted, and I thought it was pretty funny. They wrote,
congrats you learned all the words to Hamilton, and thought,
this was your chance to show it off to the
entire population of Austin. Forget how much everyone around you
(18:35):
paid for the tickets, Forget how beloved this show is
and how seeing it in person for the first time
might mean to someone.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
This was your time. Time to shine.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
From the moment, Burr said, how does a blink dot
dot dot you not only wrapped along but sang along
with the songs off key thank you. I wasn't there
to hear the Juilliard trained performers. I was there to
hear you seeing all three parts of the Skylar Sisters. Incorrectly,
she goes on, seriously, though, I think I'm sadly done
(19:10):
seeing live theater in Austin. I'm a theater kid through
and through, but the horrible audience behavior in recent years
has demonstrated tonight has robbed it of all its joy.
I did alert the house manager, and she said she'd
keep an eye out because they've been told to absolutely
not allow people to sing along, as it's been disturbing people.
(19:30):
But then the house staff did didn't do anything what
we did say. We did say something to the people
doing this and ask them to stop. They did momentarily,
but that was about it. It was a disaster of
an evening. How bested would you be? You fit the money,
you got a babysitter, you got parking tickets, right, and
(19:55):
you went, and then the whole crowd sings along with it.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I'm not there to hear you.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
It sounds like it wasn't a whole crowd.
Speaker 5 (20:02):
It sounds like it was a few few crappy people
who did it right.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Oh, drive me crazy. And that kind of happened to
me once. I took my wife to see Tina Turner
in San Antonio and that was like a bucket list thing.
And there there was a very large young man on
the row in front of us, and we were on
the edge towards the aisle, and he had memorized every
(20:30):
single dance move the entire Tina Turner concert and performed
them all in the aisle in front of us and
just kind of ruined the experience, Like, we're here to
see Tina Turner.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
Distracted by this guy.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah, it was awful. Anything You're like, oh, you're no fun,
You're fun right right? Right? No?
Speaker 5 (20:51):
I mean I think that it would be like, say,
if the person who ruined Hamilton, right, So they went
to a movie theater and somebody happened to already seen
this movie enough times that they had memorized some of
the scenes and stood up right in front of them
and said the dialogue along with the actors and ruined
them watching the movie.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
They would not be happy about that. It's the same thing.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
It's disrespectful and it's disruptive and a little bit shame
on the house managers for not taking them out, is
my opinion.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
I mean, I could see them doing a Hamilton in
a theater, like a movie theater style sing along, because
because the Taylor Swift thing kind of turned into her
concert turned into a singalong thing.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Yes, expected, that's expected for that.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
And they had special sing along showings for Wicked when
Wicked came out for the same reason.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Yeah. Yeah, not cool, now, I commented, I commented on
that reddit, How did you did you get involved? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (21:48):
I said, just say, this is what happens when the
unwashed fine slive theeter. That's true. It got too popular,
you know what I mean. It's like when it reaches
the masses. That's when you get the problems when you.
Speaker 5 (22:04):
Don't know how to act Yeah, people that don't consider it.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
It's just they weren't raised right.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I couldn't imagine.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
I mean even Tricia said she's not a musical person
but loved Hamilton.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
I still wouldn't. I couldn't go to that.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
I think you'd like it.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
But isn't there a musical bar that's a musical theme
bar that's opening up?
Speaker 2 (22:23):
I always talked about it. It's opening in this this
coming year. It's very sing a long ish yes.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
So is it kind of like a musical where everything
is this kind of normal happening in a play, and
then something happens and the guy breaks out in song
and then everyone around him just starts singing.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Yes. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
I don't know if that'd be kind of an interesting
what do they call it? And the kids calling now
an experiential thing where you go to a bar and
you never know when the song and dance number is
going to break out?
Speaker 5 (22:53):
Yeah, or if they're just constantly playing musical musicals in
the background and people are free to stay up and
sing along.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Whither drinking Drink? That was like ten years ago? That
was flash mob?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Was this flash moob?
Speaker 4 (23:08):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Trusia's friend Sean used to do flash mobs.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
My friend Sean I went to when she lived in Houston.
I went to Houston specifically this one weekend because they
were doing a flash mob at like an outdoor arboretum
type shopping area.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
And where where did they get her in life?
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (23:25):
No, no, really was just a thing that yeah, I
mean there nothing came of it.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Let's just say, did she put it on her resume? Well? Anyway, hopefully.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
I don't know if Ampilton's continued to showing up the
Bascons at all, but hopefully those of you that go
will have a much better experience than those that recently.

the Captain k over the weekend. Always a big turnout
for that. A little cooler weather than people were probably
(01:02):
expecting but probably welcomed weather for running a ten k yesterday.
So a lot of people turned out and also shout
out to every showed up at the Capitol yesterday for
your protest of the week.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I was like seven thousand people.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Oh really, I missed that. Yeah, there's a lot of
people that love the occasion. What do we approach? What
are we mad about today? Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Dose and dose and tariffs and yeah, everyone's an expert
on tariffs and government now a sudden. Last year they
were experts on viruses and the flu.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
And you know, it's just a lot of people. They
really know a lot. I feel so dumb, just so
so stupid.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Some people that did some good stuff this weekend as well.
I loved when people just get a group of people
together and do something good. And a group called Austin
Creative Reuse and Keep Austin Beautiful got together. They gathered
up seventeen really big big trash bags and eleven bags
of recycling out of assorted creeks in the Windsor Park neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
They just went through the creek and they just cleaned
it up. You know, I love Windsor Park. You know
the neighborhood at all. It was kind of a postwar
boom neighborhood behind Capital Plaza, which was the first mall
in Austin. Yeah, yeah, and so yeah, a lot of
those homes post war, built in the fifties and sixties.
(02:31):
It was just it was like the American dream. It
was like a snapshot of mad Men in suburbia. Oh
really Yeah, yeah, it's a super super cool neighborhood. I
love it. Very Norman rock wellish. Yeah, just from the
fifties and sixties. But yeah, it's such a darling neighborhood.
(02:51):
I know that sounds stupid, but I love that. I
love that spot. Well.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
They did a great job of cleaning up the creeks
along in the Windsor Park neighborhood, and they also see
there's a bunch of opportunities to do cleanups as we
get closer and closer to Keep Austin Beautiful Day, which
I think is Saturday, this coming up Saturday Birthday on
the twenty second, And you can go to their website
for more information.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
It's keep Austin Beautiful dot com. You'll find them there.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
So I just like people to get together and do
something when they see something, you know, like the Greeks
need to be cleaned up in that neighborhood, and they
got to it. Now, I'm sure there's a neighborhood out
there that's going to be griping. It's like, oh, look, come,
you didn't come to our neighborhood. There's always that side
of it too. But a good job, JB. What was
the highlight of your weekend? Anything?
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Man?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
It's funny because, yeah, going into the weekend, we were like, oh,
it's a bachelor weekend because my wife and her mom
took a road trip to Houston hit some museums and stuff.
I did less this weekend than I ever do, Like,
I just really yeah, later on, I hardly did anything.
(04:00):
I was in bed early. I was just chilling. I
did some stuff around the house, Like, nah, I did
next to nothing.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
But didn't it feel great Sometimes that's just the greatest
thing to do and not feel guilty about it.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah, yeah, I'm just I'm just hanging out and just
it was nice. And we had my mother in law's
dog too, so it's a lot of dog time. Didn't
you take your did you do and your daughter do
a bike ride? Though? Well she ended up riding with
her boyfriend. Oh uh and so yeah, no, but uh,
I did get her a new bike a couple of
(04:37):
weeks ago. She's twenty three and she so they ended
up going I didn't go on that, like honestly, I
did nothing this weekend. But she had such a great time.
But so I was like, okay, step one, let's we
went and bought Uh this is Friday or Saturday, it
doesn't matter. But we were like, okay, you passed the test.
(04:58):
You went and rode like ten miles. Did you butt her? Yes?
All right. We went and got her some cycling shorts. Cool,
you know, some gear. Yeah. Yeah, I'm like, okay, step one,
you showed up in your road. Now, now you need
a decent pair of shorts. And so anyhow got her
a couple of things like that, and and uh, you know,
I'm so it's so classic JB. I'm like, all right,
(05:21):
you're ready for a roofrack on your I know. So
she's got an old wagon, an old station wagon, and
she already has a roof rac. So I'm like, we're going.
We went to rack Attack, which is out towards the airport,
and got like and I just I can't help myself.
I should just get her like the base level bike thing. Yeah,
(05:45):
but I know what's the best?
Speaker 3 (05:47):
You got the top of the line.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I got the top of the line.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, I'm guilty like that too, of getting I'm a
big believer in having the right gear for whatever you're
doing is important and having you know, not I don't
have to buy the best of the best, but decent,
you know good.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Yeah, it's worth it. Yeah, it's It's funny. I've told
like a lot of people know, I've been riding bikes
cycling for years and I'm like, the good stuff is
worth it. It costs more for a reason. It's better material,
it's more comfortable, it will last longer. Don't skimp on
that stuff. And I'm the same way with about stuff
for her car, like, okay, this this rack is going
(06:26):
to outlive you, like this is get this like, don't
go cheap. But did you get it off a weekend
hanging out with her though? I would imagine did you
get to put on the wagon? Is it done? Oh?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, next thing you know, she's gonna pull in your
garage with the bike on top of it.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Boom. That We had a long talk about that. I said, everybody,
everyone does that once one time.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
You can't do it twice. Yeah, but everyone does it once.
Speaking of getting your kid's stuff, it wasn't very expensive.
But I got up my daughter, our daughter Tris, when
I was a fifteen year old, some proper running shorts
because she's been working very hard on reaching a goal
and to pass a test that she needs to pass
for her Navy rotc And she met her goal on
(07:13):
Friday and blew it. It really shattered the goal and
kicked a butt and I was like, well, you're right now,
you need some new gear. Let's get you. Yeah, but
you let her earn it, yes, of course.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:25):
Well she had that one pair of shorts on that
she were on Friday when she broke the goal, and
we all three were like, I think it was the shorts.
The gear's the reason.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
And then I sent her a link on Amazon, go
pick out a couple of women's running shirts that you like, yeah,
and we'll get those. So, boy, you should have seen it.
It's amazing to watch kids confidence just grow when they
think they can't do something and then they start doing
the work to do it and then they do it.
It's amazing to watch I mean she was Tricia and
(07:57):
I both saw her. She was so happy when she
reached her and confident. It was cool, yeah, cool and surprised.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
She was like, I didn't think I'd ever be able
to do this, and I was like, yeah, you did.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Nice. Yeah, it was a cool moment.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
So hey, coming up on the show, well, let's just
go with what's next, Trisia. Let's keep it simple, all right,
what do you have coming up in the story, belove.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
We're going to talk about Steve Sarkesi and he has
a new addition to his family that I'm going to
ask you, guys, if you knew anything about.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
All right, stay with us.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
It's coming up on Austin's eighties station what O three
point one and streaming on the iHeartRadio app. And for
those of you listening to us on the iHeartRadio app,
make sure you tap that follow button and allow your notifications.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
It's Austin's eighty station one oh.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Three point one, a new addition to the Sarkesian family.
Trisia's got the story in just a moment, and the
story we'd love staying with sports named tonight, We've got
the final NCAA basketball tournament and it is the University
of Houston, the Cougars taking on Florida.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
I'm all for the Cougars. Let's get that national.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
There's only been one other team in the history of
the NCAA Tournament to win the national basketball Championship. Do
you have any idea who it was? There's only been
one team, one other team from Texas has won. As
of right now, only one Texas team has ever won
the NCAA Basketball Tournament. And it was not it doesn't
(09:20):
even use the same name anymore. It was Texas Western,
which is now UTEP, which won really a national championship,
I believe in nineteen sixty six.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Wow, I've never guessed that.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Isn't that crazy to think that Texas is I mean,
only once has won a school in which is.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Boy, you'd think we would be you just recruit.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I mean, there's just so many kids in Dallas and Houston, Austin,
San Antonio that you would find five of them that
could beat everybody else.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
You didn't think that, you just can't.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
So anyway, that game is tonight, hopefully the pull off
the victory. There was something else that was good, Oh JB.
Do you watch the Americas with the Tom watched it.
I have not seen it at all.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Now I'm so good, I'm gonna kind of ruin it
for you a little bit.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
That's okay because Tricia pointed something out about the show
that ever since she mentioned it, it's the only thing I.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Can pay attention to.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
And that's the fact that all the animals on God's
Green Earth are trying to do.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
What Trish have the sex. All they're doing is looking
for a loerver. That's it.
Speaker 5 (10:33):
Sometimes their entire life is birth to maturity, and then
they go to the place where they've been told by
their ancestors that they can find the lorve, and some
of them then make the babies and then die, and
that's their whole goal in life. But no matter what creature,
if it's a lizard, if it's an elk, if it's
a bird of some kind, all their focuses is besides eating,
(10:57):
is finding a mate.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
That's it. That's to that point, I think we expect
too much from humans. Really, we're really primal, you know,
at heart, but we we try to put ourselves on
this sophisticated pedestal. We're not We're not, We're just we're animals.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Ship and Tom just has this way of luring you
in with this great story about this pelican in the
are this flamingo and high in the Andes Mountains, And
then he's telling you the whole story, and then all
of a sudden he catches switches gears and he's like,
all this in an effort to find a lover. And
(11:42):
you're like, oh, yeah, all it always comes back to
find in a lover. And those pelicans are not pelicans. Thosemingos.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Did you see that one?
Speaker 5 (11:54):
Yeah, they like and and and when he's talking about it,
they all gather at this lake on top of the
Andes once a year or whatever, and there's like forty
thousand of them. And he said, with no visible cue
of any kind, all the flimmy goes start dancing the
dance of love, the dance of love for the boys
to attract the ladies to want to mate with them,
(12:15):
and then they mate for life.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
I think, yeah. I mean, if there were higher beings
than us on Earth, I'm sure there are elsewhere, but
they would be documenting us going. This gentleman parks his
car and goes into the nightclub to find a lover.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Tom Hanks his narrated Tom Hanks.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
He heads to the bar to drink white claw.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Time is running out. He takes his last shot.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Inhibition and hips so that he might dance and find
a lover. He will same thing. He will put himself
into financial ruin in order to time. You're very right,
that's true. Same thing. Oh that's funny stories. We love.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
Studio. So Loreal and Steve Sarkisian have announced the birth
of their baby son on Friday. They both made the
announcements on their Instagram pages. I would like to take
a side Barrol Cook and say how cool is the
name Loril Sarkisian, Just saying I think it's an amazing name.
(13:24):
It rolls up the tongue. They said that they he I'm.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Sorry, I'm sorry, real quick Sarkisian for those of you
that may not know, that's the head coach of the
University of Texas football team.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
I apologize.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Very popular as of late, Yes.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Very popular.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Yes, they said, He's arrived and our hearts are so
full of love and gratitude, they both posted on their
Instagram pages.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Steve Sarkisian is fifty one.
Speaker 5 (13:49):
The reason this is a little bit surprising to me
is because just back in July of twenty twenty four,
they announced that they were going to get a divorce.
I did a little deep math that was exactly nine
months ago from when this.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Always answered her relationship problems.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Have a kid, Yeah, I feel like they were like
before they signed the papers, they were like, let's get together,
let's talk about it.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
A little something happened, and now they have a baby
and they're staying married.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Oh, I can't imagine. And I'm just I'm giving her
some grace. Like being married to, you know, a D
one football coach, you you are second?
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Sure like that the pressure, the social pressure that I
mean the university pressure, that's pressure you put on yourself
like they live, eat and breathe that sport. You would
be second fiddle at best, right.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah, but you know what for an annual salary of mine,
I second to somebody making ten MILLI year.
Speaker 5 (14:53):
Yeah, I'd figure out any ways to entertain myself while
he was off doing the football thing.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Yeah. And sometimes it's even better when they get fired
they get the huge check.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Yeah, you'd be like the former coach at Texas Tech
that went and then coached at for the Arizona Cardinals
and he's single and he got fired and he got
paid up millions and millions of dollars.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Young guy, good looking guy. I can't remember his name,
saved my life.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
And he was like, hey, if you're looking for me,
I'm going to be in Vietnam for the next nine months.
He did. He just split and he finally came back.
He's coaching again, I think in the NFL. I cannot
remember his name.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
There's he just tacked the money and just used he
was like, all right, I'll hang out for a while. Yeah,
why well again.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
Sarkisian is fifty one and has one of his sons
is actually a junior linebacker on the Longhorns football team,
so college aged, get at least one of them.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
And now he has a brand new newborn baby.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
Oh you born at fifty one? Oh, I was thirty
five when our daughter was born, and that was that's late,
you know.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (16:02):
I had Landry when I was what thirty seven? Got
I or thirty eight? So Sandy was, you know, almost forty.
It's it is harder.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
There's a big differen between forty and fifty. Yeah, oh yeah,
oh yeah, big difference.
Speaker 5 (16:16):
He's got any money though, I got money, coach.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Baby, star Kisi, and I want to see what that
baby looks like.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
It sharks in pretty good shape, so he can get
up and down off the ground a whole lot easier
than I could at Fish. Sure you think I'm joking
you young people out thirty laughing. Oh, how hard can
it be to get up down off the ground with
your baby?
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, it can be hard.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
It can be hard.
Speaker 5 (16:38):
All the things that the older people say that as
a young person, you're all, yeah, yeah, whatever, it's not
gonna happen to me. Happens. It totally happens, you guys.
They say it for a reason.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
I'm trying to stay in shape for, you know, the
day I become a grandparent. Yes, I want to be
able to move, you know, and do whatever I need
to do. Just motivating.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
I told our daughters, like, don't wait to be thirty
eight before you have a kid like I did, because
then i'll be seventy six and too old to take
care of that baby. She won't let me have it
for like a weekend or something. I'll be so she's
gotta gonna get knocked up early.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
That's funny. Did they say the name of the kid.
Speaker 5 (17:13):
No, But I want to know because how cool last
her Keysines is such a cool last name.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (17:19):
When I know that baby's name and I want to
see a picture of that baby, well they're going.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
To keep that private for a little while.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Trisia sounds so country sometimes that baby.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
So country ass sometimes like I just want to see
that baby.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
I don't care I do.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
That is the story we love.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
As Tricia said, people were acting fools at the Bass
Concert Hall for the production of Hamilton Especial.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
You saw it right.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
I saw it. I saw it on a girl's trip
in London.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
I am not a musicals person, but I loved it
from the first note to the last.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
I absolutely loved that musical.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
And I can't imagine if what happened to the people
who went to see it at Beast Concert Hall this
weekend had happened to me when I saw it, i'd
be furious.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
I'm not exactly sure it happened last week because I
found I saw this on Reddit, and sometimes Reddit the
time warp there. You never know when it pops up.
It doesn't matter it happened. And here's what the reddit
or posted, and I thought it was pretty funny. They wrote,
congrats you learned all the words to Hamilton, and thought,
this was your chance to show it off to the
entire population of Austin. Forget how much everyone around you
(18:35):
paid for the tickets, Forget how beloved this show is
and how seeing it in person for the first time
might mean to someone.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
This was your time. Time to shine.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
From the moment, Burr said, how does a blink dot
dot dot you not only wrapped along but sang along
with the songs off key thank you. I wasn't there
to hear the Juilliard trained performers. I was there to
hear you seeing all three parts of the Skylar Sisters. Incorrectly,
she goes on, seriously, though, I think I'm sadly done
(19:10):
seeing live theater in Austin. I'm a theater kid through
and through, but the horrible audience behavior in recent years
has demonstrated tonight has robbed it of all its joy.
I did alert the house manager, and she said she'd
keep an eye out because they've been told to absolutely
not allow people to sing along, as it's been disturbing people.
(19:30):
But then the house staff did didn't do anything what
we did say. We did say something to the people
doing this and ask them to stop. They did momentarily,
but that was about it. It was a disaster of
an evening. How bested would you be? You fit the money,
you got a babysitter, you got parking tickets, right, and
(19:55):
you went, and then the whole crowd sings along with it.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I'm not there to hear you.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
It sounds like it wasn't a whole crowd.
Speaker 5 (20:02):
It sounds like it was a few few crappy people
who did it right.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Oh, drive me crazy. And that kind of happened to
me once. I took my wife to see Tina Turner
in San Antonio and that was like a bucket list thing.
And there there was a very large young man on
the row in front of us, and we were on
the edge towards the aisle, and he had memorized every
(20:30):
single dance move the entire Tina Turner concert and performed
them all in the aisle in front of us and
just kind of ruined the experience, Like, we're here to
see Tina Turner.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
Distracted by this guy.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah, it was awful. Anything You're like, oh, you're no fun,
You're fun right right? Right? No?
Speaker 5 (20:51):
I mean I think that it would be like, say,
if the person who ruined Hamilton, right, So they went
to a movie theater and somebody happened to already seen
this movie enough times that they had memorized some of
the scenes and stood up right in front of them
and said the dialogue along with the actors and ruined
them watching the movie.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
They would not be happy about that. It's the same thing.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
It's disrespectful and it's disruptive and a little bit shame
on the house managers for not taking them out, is
my opinion.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
I mean, I could see them doing a Hamilton in
a theater, like a movie theater style sing along, because
because the Taylor Swift thing kind of turned into her
concert turned into a singalong thing.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Yes, expected, that's expected for that.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
And they had special sing along showings for Wicked when
Wicked came out for the same reason.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Yeah. Yeah, not cool, now, I commented, I commented on
that reddit, How did you did you get involved? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (21:48):
I said, just say, this is what happens when the
unwashed fine slive theeter. That's true. It got too popular,
you know what I mean. It's like when it reaches
the masses. That's when you get the problems when you.
Speaker 5 (22:04):
Don't know how to act Yeah, people that don't consider it.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
It's just they weren't raised right.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I couldn't imagine.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
I mean even Tricia said she's not a musical person
but loved Hamilton.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
I still wouldn't. I couldn't go to that.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
I think you'd like it.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
But isn't there a musical bar that's a musical theme
bar that's opening up?
Speaker 2 (22:23):
I always talked about it. It's opening in this this
coming year. It's very sing a long ish yes.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
So is it kind of like a musical where everything
is this kind of normal happening in a play, and
then something happens and the guy breaks out in song

the background and people are free to stay up and
sing along.
