Speaker 3: we got some messages from you guys that wanted to

Speaker 3: of funny. Actually, it's from Patsy who just saw one
Speaker 3: of our posts and said, I commuted from Cedar Park
Speaker 3: to downtown Austin for six years and listened to y'all
Speaker 3: and she has questions. It's been a while. Listen, she said,
Speaker 3: is JB still with Aaron? Did Sandy? Yes? Did Sandy
Speaker 3: find love? That's how long ago it's been? Hell yeah,
Speaker 3: she said. Y'all were talking about the book Bay Maybe
Speaker 3: four to one one, written by Austin pediatrician Ari Brown.
Speaker 3: One day She said, I bought the book when I
Speaker 3: was expecting my child, who is now a college senior. Wow.
Speaker 3: So to answer your question, yeah, Jab and Aaron still together.
Speaker 4: Still together, she's still tolerating me.
Speaker 3: And his daughter pointed out how abnormal it was that
Speaker 3: his parents, her parents, were still married.
Speaker 1: My daughter thinks it's so weird because all of her friends,
Speaker 1: everybody she knows, their parents are split.
Speaker 4: Yeah, she thinks we're weird.
Speaker 2: We're married.
Speaker 3: Very strange. Her other question, did Sandy find love? Eh?
Speaker 3: I don't know if I found love.
Speaker 4: I mean, you found a companion.
Speaker 1: Yeah, someone that tolerates my lady friend, someone the cohabitat with.
Speaker 3: Yeah, split the bills with, you know that type of
Speaker 3: thing I got. She she and I have been married
Speaker 3: for seventeen years, have a sixteen year old daughter, and
Speaker 3: have been together for twenty twenty two.
Speaker 4: Wow. Yeah, seventeen years.
Speaker 1: I mean, let's just call it twenty two. That's that's
Speaker 1: defying odds.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I'll tell you what. There's a lot of people
Speaker 3: that met the under on that and lost.
Speaker 1: When I saw a funny post, I'm gonna paraphrase it
Speaker 1: and I won't get it exactly right, but it was
Speaker 1: like it said, so, the divorce rate of straight couples
Speaker 1: is forty nine percent divorce or something like, wow, the
Speaker 1: divorce rate for gay men in a relationship is forty
Speaker 1: four percent. Well split four that stay together. Sorry, forty
Speaker 1: nine percent of straight couples stay together. Forty four percent
Speaker 1: of gay men stay together. Gay women it was like,
Speaker 1: it was like nineteen percent. So it said, of the problems,
Speaker 1: clearly women are the problem. I really screwed that up,
Speaker 1: but you get the idea. It was very fun.
Speaker 3: We have a nomina, one of our best friends is
Speaker 3: a gay woman. She always jokes. Anytime she can't points
Speaker 3: it out, she goes, I'm telling you to lesbians meet
Speaker 3: they move in together. Three days later. She's like, it's.
Speaker 4: Really just in general escalat quickly.
Speaker 3: It's stereotype about gay women is that they move in
Speaker 3: together right away, like there's no money. It's yeah, that
Speaker 3: was pretty funny.
Speaker 4: You know, my neighborhood is historically a lesbian neighborhood.
Speaker 1: Lucky, and I know that because I did the Austin
Speaker 1: found podcast for three years with Michael Barnes from the Statesman,
Speaker 1: and we did an episode called where are the Gaborhoods
Speaker 1: of Austin.
Speaker 3: That's funny.
Speaker 1: And and there aren't very many, which they're compared to
Speaker 1: a lot of cities, which is a whole other story.
Speaker 1: I won't go off on that, but but Travis Heights, Yeah,
Speaker 1: a lot of artists and a lot of gay community
Speaker 1: historically here it's it's this neighborhood's changing. These are now
Speaker 1: Californians moving in. But yeah, I thought that was interesting.
Speaker 3: JB. Do you have a text or a message?
Speaker 4: I do.
Speaker 1: This is from Cindy says OMG, y'all are the best.
Speaker 1: I've listened to JB and Sandy since day one. I
Speaker 1: quickly fell in love with Sandy and Tricia when I
Speaker 1: found y'all, and now with JB back, it's golden, golden,
Speaker 1: it is. I even have my hubby listening to y'all now,
Speaker 1: and he's homebound on hospice. Y'all brings so much joy

Speaker 1: to be tough, how about you. Tricia got one?
Speaker 2: I have one. This one from Wes Drake.

Speaker 3: I got one here and it's pretty funny. It says, hey,
Speaker 3: I heard you and JB talking on the show about
Speaker 3: the Leslie dress up magnets. Had to share my set
Speaker 3: still in the original package I got in the book
Speaker 3: people back in two thousand and six. She said, feel

Speaker 3: and then I wrote her back that this hysterical, and
Speaker 3: she said yes, And every one of my family got
Speaker 3: them in their Christmas stockings that year. And it's just
Speaker 3: all the little magnets of Leslie.
Speaker 2: Different ways you could dress them up.
Speaker 3: Yep, exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like so yeah, Leslie was if you're new
Speaker 1: to Austin, he was our very famous flamboyant, bikini wearing
Speaker 1: homeless man who ran for mayor and actually did well.
Speaker 1: And he was just he was the face of keep
Speaker 1: Austin weird. They had made a little what did you
Speaker 1: call those when you were a kid, paper dolls sort
Speaker 1: of yeah, yeah, magnetic yep, Leslie's outfits and they sold
Speaker 1: him at book People and I know it, they had
Speaker 1: them at Waterloo Records. And for those of you who
Speaker 1: don't remember the origins of keep Austin weird, it it
Speaker 1: was about buying local. It wasn't totally about being weird.
Speaker 1: It was about supporting and buying local, which you know,
Speaker 1: we seem to be losing that spirit. And then Waterloo
Speaker 1: and book People are the prime example. They still exist
Speaker 1: where they've closed in most cities. You know, I mean
Speaker 1: that type of store that was local record stores, bookstores
Speaker 1: but yeah, keep keep buying local when you can.
Speaker 4: That's that's what it means to keep usting.
Speaker 3: Yeah, try to bring that back. It's getting harder and
