Speaker 1: long haul truckers.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean. I can beat that. I like.
Speaker 1: I My goal is to crack the top one hundred,
Speaker 1: just one hundred.
Speaker 2: I don't need to do any better than that, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I'll be happy with just number one hundred to replace
Speaker 1: Red Eye Radio. It's a show that literally targets over
Speaker 1: the road truckers. Wow, nothing wrong with that. I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: it's an overnight show. I'm just you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: digging a hole. Here's what I'm doing.
Speaker 2: It might be harder than you think. Oh, it's going
Speaker 2: to be tremendously hard. Yeah. Oh I know, I know.
Speaker 1: And I see some of the names that are on there,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, you're never going to get to that,
Speaker 1: you know. But I mean, just number one hundred, that's
Speaker 1: that's the goal. It's a very it's a big goal.
Speaker 3: Do they have any number one video version of its audio?
Speaker 2: It's all audio and red Eye what was it called
Speaker 2: red Eye Radio?
Speaker 1: Red Eye Radio is number one hundred on the top
Speaker 1: one hundred iHeartRadio podcast list, And I mean there's I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna never gonna beat Glenn Back or any of
Speaker 1: those guys, you know what I mean, But at least
Speaker 1: for my own ego. Download the Sandy Show podcast and
Speaker 1: at least get past Red Eye Radio.
Speaker 2: You're gun in for him.
Speaker 1: I'm coming after him, baby, I'm coming after all. Both
Speaker 1: guns blazing on this deal.
Speaker 3: I mean, I see a lot of videos of them
Speaker 3: being guests on other shows, but I don't see like
Speaker 3: their own channel.
Speaker 2: Oh I'm curious now now I know.
Speaker 1: Now I'm losing all my radio listeners, all our radio listeners,
Speaker 1: Red Eye Radio, sons of bitches. Yeah, this didn't work
Speaker 1: out so good for me, did it? Okay, So shout
Speaker 1: out to and best wishes to Mackenzie Kelly. City council woman.
Speaker 1: Mackenzie Kelly had to be rushed from a city council
Speaker 1: meeting the other day and taking the hospital and last I.
Speaker 2: Checked was recuperating.
Speaker 1: They're not seeing you know what happened or what it was,
Speaker 1: but apparently she's not feeling well and had to be
Speaker 1: taken to the hospital. And she has been a big
Speaker 1: supporter of you and I for years and years. She
Speaker 1: grew up listening to us, and then she went on to,
Speaker 1: you know, be a city council member in Austin and
Speaker 1: oftentimes the only city council person that I agree with.
Speaker 2: In Austin.
Speaker 3: So yeah, she is Yeah, I think she's there for
Speaker 3: the right reasons, you know, yes, doing the people's business. Yeah,
Speaker 3: oh man, I wish here will and let me know
Speaker 3: if you get any updates on that note.
Speaker 2: I don't know you. Do you recall the city councilman
Speaker 2: Chris Riley?
Speaker 4: Sure?
Speaker 2: Yeah, he just bikes for kids and stuff. Yep.
Speaker 3: He just passed away. I just found that out a
Speaker 3: little bit late from cancer. But he was a big
Speaker 3: advocate for cycling. I mean, and I mean pushing hard
Speaker 3: early about you know, when that first big, really big
Speaker 3: push about moving downtown from will Wynn and all that,
Speaker 3: it's like get out of your cars, like start riding
Speaker 3: a bike. He put his money where his mouth is
Speaker 3: and moved downtown and dished his car. He was always
Speaker 3: on his bike. He was real helpful for business project
Speaker 3: that I worked on in East Austin. Just the real
Speaker 3: deal Harvard guy as an undergrad ut law. But I
Speaker 3: think he was only sixty sixty one years old. And
Speaker 3: I just hate here in that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know on that because you mentioned will Win
Speaker 1: and I got maybe you know, Will You may have
Speaker 1: it may have gone too far with the moving downtown.
Speaker 1: I mean you may have I mean really over over
Speaker 1: succeeded on that because the people certainly got the message
Speaker 1: that to move downtown, and they did that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, there's probably you probably have a
Speaker 3: lot of new Austinite listeners who don't remember this era
Speaker 3: when hardly anyone was living downtown. The only place to
Speaker 3: live was the rail yard, right, those apartments. And then
Speaker 3: you know, will Win when he was a mayor, was like, look,
Speaker 3: it's too late to build the infrastructure. It's too late.
Speaker 3: They didn't want to do it in the sixties and
Speaker 3: seventies because they wanted it to be a small town.
Speaker 3: He goes, you need to live where you work. Get
Speaker 3: out of your cars. He did the same thing. He
Speaker 3: moved downtown. He was in one of those early condos downtown.
Speaker 3: And it's like, you can't and undo it.
Speaker 1: Now, right, you can't undo it. I mean, it's out
Speaker 1: of the bottle. Everyone moved downtown. They did it. It's
Speaker 1: funny when I talk to especially younger people that live downtown.
Speaker 1: I always one guy said it to me, and then
Speaker 1: I can continue to ask younger people he lives down
Speaker 1: here downtown. He's like, yeah, it's a get it out
Speaker 1: of my system thing, you know. Yeah, I'm going to
Speaker 1: live down here for a while and then I'll move,
Speaker 1: you know, northwest or somewhere. And so I always ask
Speaker 1: younger people when I find out they live downtown, I go,
Speaker 1: is it kind of a get it out of your
Speaker 1: system type of thing?
Speaker 2: And they all say yes, They all right, Yeah, my
Speaker 2: daughter didn't want to live downtown.
Speaker 3: She's on South Lamar and that downtown is a little
Speaker 3: more expensive than Southamar anyway, and she wanted to live
Speaker 3: by herself, which makes it challenging financially. But you know,
Speaker 3: she's she did not want to do the downtown thing. Yeah, No,
Speaker 3: that'll freak me out. She just wanted to be a
Speaker 3: little bit removed. Although South Lamar is starting to look
Speaker 3: like downtown.
Speaker 1: How mature is that of your daughter to know herself
Speaker 1: well enough to know that that wouldn't work for.
Speaker 3: Her, Yeah, and to know that she needs to live
Speaker 3: by herself. Yeah, it's just grown up a lot doing it.
Speaker 3: It's been really helpful.
Speaker 2: That's that's cool. It's cool.
Speaker 1: It's fun watching other people's kids grow up, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. Like I saw some kids the other day.
Speaker 1: I was in a car wash and I one of
Speaker 1: the kids that was working there. I used to live
Speaker 1: in the same neighborhood in Valine, and I was looking
Speaker 1: at him and.
Speaker 2: I was like, hey, I know you you know what
Speaker 2: I mean? And then I told him who I was.
Speaker 2: He was like, holy crap.
Speaker 1: And he's like seventeen now right, he's going to be
Speaker 1: a senior in high school. I knew when he was
Speaker 1: just a little kid shooting baskets in front of my
Speaker 1: house all day. Yeah, it's fun to do that. He's JB.
Speaker 1: My name is Sandy. Helped me crack that top one
Speaker 1: hundred on the iHeart list, which and download the podcast
Speaker 1: I got to knock out Red Eye Radio.
Speaker 2: You know, and I should have.
Speaker 3: She is sorry to go backwards here, but would you
Speaker 3: could you do the downtown thing?
Speaker 2: Well, no, not in my current life.
Speaker 5: That maybe is an empty master. Yeah, yes, definitely you could.
Speaker 5: I think, well I could Tricia couldn't you know what
Speaker 5: I mean. She's gonna divorce me in five years anyway,
Speaker 5: So I mean she and I are going to have
Speaker 5: that talk when we're when we're married twenty years, we're
Speaker 5: going to have that talks about four years from now.
Speaker 2: I was like, Hey, do you want to keep doing
Speaker 2: this or not? If you don't want to.
Speaker 1: Let's just kind of you know, she wants to get
Speaker 1: a duplex and I live on one side and she
Speaker 1: lives on the other side, so whatever.
Speaker 3: Or you could just have a house and just put
Speaker 3: a wall up down the middle. I mean it's essentially
Speaker 3: the same thing. Yeah, you're right, two containers their homes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, stick around.
Speaker 1: We've got more coming up on one O three point

Speaker 2: First chance coming up at nine.
Speaker 1: Since we were speaking just a little bit ago about
Speaker 1: my very lofty goal of trying to crack the top
Speaker 1: one hundred on the iHeartRadio podcast list on their top
Speaker 1: one hundred, things have changed, JB. The Redeye Radio is
Speaker 1: not number one hundred anymore. Okay, it's been booted off
Speaker 1: of the list. So my new target to break the
Speaker 1: top one hundred is Bannon's war Room.
Speaker 2: Let's see what that's all about. War Room.
Speaker 1: Let's see what the first episode. This looks fun, the
Speaker 1: long economic grind, MAGA turnout, and battleground states.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't make your neighbors hate you. Yeah, and no, kidd,
Speaker 6: let's see what political Yeah. But here's the description of
Speaker 6: Bannon's war Room. This is my target. I want to
Speaker 6: knock them out and be number one hundred. And the
Speaker 6: only way I can do that is to get people
Speaker 6: to download the podcast.
Speaker 1: Right, That's the only way I can do it. It's
Speaker 1: a numbers game in this tiny little radio station. I mean,
Speaker 1: it would be a coup if I pulled it off.
Speaker 1: I mean that would get some people's attention, don't you
Speaker 1: think So why not, We'll go after Bannon. I'm guessing
Speaker 1: this is Steve Bannon. Here's how it's described. Pandemic is
Speaker 1: the first and most comprehensive program to bring the most
Speaker 1: up to the minute information on the news of the day.
Speaker 2: Stephen K.
Speaker 1: Bannon brings medical experts, politician, business leaders, and those on
Speaker 1: the front line for a comprehensive look at the latest
Speaker 1: news from all and provide their inside or insights. I
Speaker 1: will pass on that, but I do want to knock
Speaker 1: it out and be number one hundred JP.
Speaker 2: So this is this is my mission.
Speaker 1: You were the one that told me that fitness without
Speaker 1: goals is nearly impossible. So I've now applied that to
Speaker 1: other parts of my life, that doing getting anything done
Speaker 1: without a goal is nearly impossible. So number one hundred,
Speaker 1: that's what I'm shooting for.
Speaker 2: Are you are you?
Speaker 3: Are you being kicking around some kind of new podcast
Speaker 3: idea there cracking or just no?
Speaker 1: This one the Sandy Show, the one that we real
Speaker 1: know wise as I do have a couple others.
Speaker 3: I just know I've wondered if you've had thoughts of like,
Speaker 3: oh I should do a show about this or this,
Speaker 3: and sometimes your friends tell you you should be doing
Speaker 3: a show.
Speaker 2: Well, I've got okay.
Speaker 1: So in fact, I just did one yesterday, Beamer's Best
Speaker 1: Bets Rich Bean with Rich Beam, which is a golf
Speaker 1: gambling podcast.
Speaker 2: And how's that going?
Speaker 1: It's going all right, I'm I mean it needs to
Speaker 1: be promoted more. Rich has got to understand the social
Speaker 1: media side of it, like, dude, this doesn't live without
Speaker 1: your social media.
Speaker 2: But he makes picks man in the Olympics.
Speaker 1: He picked the first two Scottie Scheffler and Tommy Fleetwood.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's got winners. If you want, if you
Speaker 1: want to bet on golf, you listen to that podcast.
Speaker 1: And then I've got Chancellor Hans's podcast, The Best Storyteller
Speaker 1: in Texas, which does very, very well. It's got a
Speaker 1: better shot at breaking the top one hundred than I do,
Speaker 1: but I'm going to give it a shot.
Speaker 2: Anyway, we got new police chief JB did we find
Speaker 2: I've been a bit checked.
Speaker 3: Out, especially like Tour de France. I'm working sun up
Speaker 3: to sundown that's in July, and then I'm an Olympics junkie,
Speaker 3: Like I don't watch any real news during the Olympics.
Speaker 3: It's so anyhow, I am completely out of touch given
Speaker 3: all that, and I knew we were looking for a
Speaker 3: new police chief.
Speaker 1: Her name is Lisa Davis. She comes to Austin. She
Speaker 1: was an assistant chief in Cincinnati.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 1: The other finalist was Jeffrey Norman from Milwaukee. But Lisa
Speaker 1: Davis is going to be the new police chief in Austin.
Speaker 1: I don't know a whole lot about her, to be
Speaker 1: honest with you, I do know that she's going to
Speaker 1: like it here a whole lot more than she liked
Speaker 1: it in Cincinnati.
Speaker 2: You just have better people here.
Speaker 3: You've lived there for a year or so, yeahen months
Speaker 3: in Cincinnati.
Speaker 1: You're not going to deal with the same problems that
Speaker 1: you have in Cincinnati. There's Austin's got its problems. The
Speaker 1: bigger it gets, the more problems it seems to have.
Speaker 1: But you know, I'm not gonna I don't know much
Speaker 1: about her, but we'll see how she does, right, Lisa Danas.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's interesting.
Speaker 3: It seems like, I mean, I've not spent any time
Speaker 3: in law enforcement, but I would love to have that conversation.
Speaker 3: It seems like a local insider would be better groomed
Speaker 3: for a leadership role of just knowing the dynamics of
Speaker 3: the city. Like I mean, she's never lived here, Like
Speaker 3: I know this city neighborhood by neighborhood, you know, And
Speaker 3: I'm never spending time in law enforcement.
Speaker 2: But it's like that takes a lot of lifetime to learn.
Speaker 1: But one of Austin's most popular ever and well loved chiefs,
Speaker 1: art Os of Ata, he went from here either, you know,
Speaker 1: he was from la But I think you know, she
Speaker 1: did say something really smart. She said, like, the first
Speaker 1: one hundred days of this is going to be a
Speaker 1: lot of listening and a lot of learning, a lot
Speaker 1: of learning.
Speaker 2: You know how things work.
Speaker 1: You can't just come in and just start making just
Speaker 1: broad stroke changes to a police dey.
Speaker 3: And it's a super weird city with the dynamics of
Speaker 3: between Travis County and Texas State, the state of Texas
Speaker 3: between we had it between Adler and Abbott. Do you
Speaker 3: remember that, Like it's a it's a very unique situation,
Speaker 3: is where I'm going.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what you're saying is that the it's red and blue.
Speaker 1: It's like Austin is the blue spot in the entire
Speaker 1: state of Texas. And so a lot of times the
Speaker 1: state rulings don't fly, don't fly very well in.
Speaker 3: All one county right now. It's any job, yeah.
Speaker 1: Job so and you got so many people, so many
Speaker 1: different types of people just from one county to another.
Speaker 1: It's it's a tough job. I would not want to
Speaker 1: be a chief of police. Don't thank you. I'll be
Speaker 1: fired a chief first. No, I would not take that job.
Speaker 1: I just you know how hard recruiting has to be. Now,
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and there's so many officers short right now, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and getting because of funding and all that crap that
Speaker 1: happened a few years ago.
Speaker 3: It's funding, and then you've you're trying to do a
Speaker 3: job that I could never do, and you're making split
Speaker 3: section decisions and then you can end up in court.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, now I know you know, good or bad
Speaker 2: opinion on you know.
Speaker 1: And now there's there's the cameras to it, so that
Speaker 1: can help you or that can hurt you in the case,
Speaker 1: right with everyone wearing body cams.
Speaker 2: So I hate that.
Speaker 1: You ever see the people on social media that are
Speaker 1: just jerks to cops. They get pulled over and they're like, no,
Speaker 1: I don't answer any questions. It might being detained, I know,
Speaker 1: just asking for it. You're provoking it.
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 3: It's ridiculous. That's usually someone hiding something. I would think, Yeah,
Speaker 3: you're right, they are. They just cooperate, They just make it.
Speaker 3: They want to get on with their day. Right, Unless
Speaker 3: you're hiding something, then you're going to be difficult.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: It's someone that you know, read or watched a YouTube
Speaker 1: video on how to handle the things.
Speaker 2: They're a lawyer, you know what I mean. The goal.
Speaker 1: And speaking of that podcast that I mentioned a little bit,
Speaker 1: Ago Can't Hance the best storyteller in Texas.
Speaker 2: He has a great story and the.
Speaker 1: Moral of it is, when you get pulled over by
Speaker 1: a police officer, there is one goal in mind that
Speaker 1: both of you go home that night.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: The police officer goes home and you go home, and
Speaker 1: that's that's the goal of any traffic stop.
Speaker 2: Stick around.
Speaker 1: By the way, Jami mentioned some of those podcasts and
Speaker 1: stuff You've got Jamie Squared that you do with Johan Bernew.
Speaker 2: We mentioned that earlier.
Speaker 1: You work on the Tour de France coverage, which you
Speaker 1: guys killed it on this year and the upcoming the
Speaker 1: Women's Tour.
Speaker 2: You guys are also doing right, let's starts next week
Speaker 2: the Move podcast too, right and are you part of
Speaker 2: the forward also? No, I just produced that.
Speaker 3: So the forward is Lance Armstrong doing full length interviews
Speaker 3: with people of interests and we have one coming out
Speaker 3: in a couple of days with Sir Bradley Wiggins.
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to that. Oh yeah, interesting guy.
Speaker 3: He won the Tour de France in twenty twelve and
Speaker 3: has just been crucified by the British tabloids.
Speaker 2: Did he get all jacked up after his bike racing?
Speaker 2: He doesn't even look like the same guy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's got into boxing and ah okay a yeah,
Speaker 3: he's just massive.
Speaker 2: Compared to how he looked as a cyclist. So look
Speaker 2: for that this week. It's gonna Yeah, it's a it's
Speaker 2: a good interview.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a fascinating story and that very likable guy
Speaker 3: who's just I mean, if you think tabloids are tough here,
Speaker 3: I think it's nothing compared to British tablets.
Speaker 1: This is a question that I think a lot of
Speaker 1: our listeners can really really relate to. Look, we don't
Speaker 1: have any sixteen seventeen, eighteen year olds listening to us.
Speaker 1: They're listening to their to their music on their phone,
Speaker 1: or they're watching something weird on their phone that I've
Speaker 1: never even heard of, you know what, I mean, some
Speaker 1: sort of weird cartoon that I don't even know what
Speaker 1: it is.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm talking about, JB. I'm kind of
Speaker 2: anime And yeah, I mean, I'm not.
Speaker 1: Saying it's weird to me because I don't know what
Speaker 1: it is. I get that it's new stuff to them.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, but it's like, what is this,
Speaker 1: you know, like like Roadblocks? I mean, I know that's
Speaker 1: pretty mainstream, but I have no idea what that's all about.
Speaker 2: The kids playing Roadblocks? Do you know what that is? No?
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 1: Okay, see that is either it's a video game that
Speaker 1: it's the graphics suck on it. It's like an atari
Speaker 1: from nineteen eighty two. But it's super popular in here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's huge, huge, huge. So here's the question, what are
Speaker 1: you slowly losing interest in as you grow older something
Speaker 1: that used to be a big deal to you but no, thanks,
Speaker 1: as you get older, I'll start out going to sporting events.
Speaker 2: Don't care. I do not care. I don't much of
Speaker 2: a production or too much of a whip. TV is
Speaker 2: so good too, part of the problem, yep.
Speaker 1: But I used to love to go to a college
Speaker 1: football game. We'd love to go to a baseball game
Speaker 1: or a hockey or anything. And now I'm just like,
Speaker 1: unless I'm getting unless you can chopper me in and
Speaker 1: chopper me out, I am not going.
Speaker 2: No, thank you, just yeah I can see that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: what about you?
Speaker 3: This is actually like I was just thinking about this
Speaker 3: recently that I've lost interest in going out to eat. Oh,
Speaker 3: now it's if it's just grab something casual, super easy,
Speaker 3: let's stuck into this patio, get some appetizers whatever. I'm
Speaker 3: all in going out to dinner, like my wife and
Speaker 3: I going to dinner.
Speaker 2: Like with another couple or something, even if it's with
Speaker 2: or without a couple. I just don't.
Speaker 3: The benefits just are not that great to me. It's
Speaker 3: gotten crazy expensive. Yes, it is like ridiculously expensive. I
Speaker 3: cook a lot at home, and so it's just like,
Speaker 3: h we're gonna go spend We're gonna go spend a
Speaker 3: couple hundred bucks on dinner, you know. I mean, it's
Speaker 3: just not cheap anymore to go to a halfway decent dinner.
Speaker 3: And then you get stick shock on the wine prices
Speaker 3: or whatever, so you order something mediocre. It's just like
Speaker 3: and you're just like it better be really good, Like
Speaker 3: it better be mind blowing good.
Speaker 2: You made me think of something. You mentioned the wine list.
Speaker 1: So I've always been a go out to dinner with
Speaker 1: another couple person, you know, and you always just split it,
Speaker 1: don't don't break down the price of the meal. Well,
Speaker 1: I mean I don't drink. Yeah, my wife barely drinks.
Speaker 1: This other couple we go out with got a ninety
Speaker 1: dollars bottle of wine.
Speaker 2: Right, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: And I'm like, yeah, that's not working. Well, yeah, that
Speaker 3: one's not working in your favor.
Speaker 1: I didn't say anything, you know, but I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that hurts, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: But I'm also a believer. What goes around comes around,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: So yeah, another thing that as I've gotten older, I've
Speaker 1: completely lost interest in. Not that I was really ever
Speaker 1: that interested in it, but like celebrity breakups, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like right now, Ben and Jennifer Lopez,
Speaker 1: I don't care, although I do care about the rumor
Speaker 1: that's out there as to why would.
Speaker 2: You like to know what that is? Yeah? I have
Speaker 2: no idea.
Speaker 1: Okay, So Sugar Knight, you know who that is, right,
Speaker 1: the bad guy that's in jail. The rap guy, by
Speaker 1: the way, does a podcast from jail. Did you know
Speaker 1: that No does a podcast from prison? Yes, I'm sure
Speaker 1: he does, if it sug anyway, I don't know. His
Speaker 1: theory is that if you remember, j Lo dated Diddy
Speaker 1: back in the day, right, and the FBI rated Diddy
Speaker 1: and they got a bunch of videos and kinky, weird
Speaker 1: stuff that Diddy likes, and j Lo was down with
Speaker 1: it back then, and Ben found and Ben found out, Oh.
Speaker 2: That's why Ben is jet packing out.
Speaker 3: Oh, because I've I've seen some of the now I'm
Speaker 3: getting roped right into it. I've seen some of the
Speaker 3: social clips where they're like paparazzi's following and Ben just
Speaker 3: looks so annoyed. Yeah, he doesn't want to be there.
Speaker 3: And there's a I don't have her name in front
Speaker 3: of me, I'm sorry. There is an Instagram page where
Speaker 3: a woman who can lip read professionally. She lip reads
Speaker 3: what the celebrities are saying from a distance, and Ben
Speaker 3: and Jen are a big target for her. So some
Speaker 3: tmz might post some clip or something, right, I have
Speaker 3: to ask about that, and you can't tell what they're saying.
Speaker 2: She does it. She does it a lot. At sporting events.
Speaker 3: There'll be a couple up there having an argument backstage.
Speaker 2: Whatever were they saying right before they came out? It's
Speaker 2: pretty cool. Has she said what Ben has been saying?
Speaker 2: I have to go find it.
Speaker 3: I just this was a I've said it in a while,
Speaker 3: but that just rings a bell that she's like trying
Speaker 3: to follow what they're saying.
Speaker 1: It's yeah, if it's on TMZ, I'll just call my
Speaker 1: dad later on today and have him tell me that,
Speaker 1: which is funny.
Speaker 2: He is, it's fun there.
Speaker 1: I could go on and on about the things that
Speaker 1: but the things that I've just completely lost interest in
Speaker 1: is I've gotten older. I'll wrap it up with this
Speaker 1: last one, and I think, JB, you're going to be
Speaker 1: one hundred percent on this too.
Speaker 2: Other people's opinions about me, Oh yeah, boy, that's rating
Speaker 2: to not care.
Speaker 1: Don't care at all, don't care. Don't need any new
Speaker 1: friends either. Yeah, I've got all the friends I need.
Speaker 1: I'm not looking at for new ones. Yeah, that's a
Speaker 1: good one. Our Bank proudly sponsors The Sandy Show. Make

Speaker 1: You can text us anytime if you like. Seven three
Speaker 1: seven three zero one ninety six hundred and JB, it's
Speaker 1: great having you here today because I had something happen
Speaker 1: to me recently that it's just different to talk to
Speaker 1: one of your boys about that it is to talk
Speaker 1: to your wife about you know what I mean, because
Speaker 1: you get guy code.
Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, there's guy code and there's girl code,
Speaker 2: bro code. You know, it's a thing.
Speaker 1: A couple of weeks ago, I guess about a month ago,
Speaker 1: Tricia and Landry and I went up to see my
Speaker 1: parents in Nebraska, right, and I had posted a photo
Speaker 1: with my mom in Nebraska. Well, a guy that I
Speaker 1: was friends with in college, actually before college too, he
Speaker 1: saw the photo and he reached out.
Speaker 2: And he's like, he is like, hey, man, I saw
Speaker 2: you in town.
Speaker 1: Don't want to drag you away from your family and stuff,
Speaker 1: but I'd love to get together and you know, grab
Speaker 1: lunch or coffee or something like that. Well, this is
Speaker 1: a guy that many years ago, probably fifteen years ago,
Speaker 1: I loaned him money, right, and I thought, here it comes.
Speaker 1: It's coming back. He wants to get together so he
Speaker 1: can pay me back the money that I loaned him.
Speaker 2: A decent amount of money.
Speaker 1: Uh put it this way, enough to make a couple
Speaker 1: of mortgage payments. Okay, you know what I mean. And
Speaker 1: so I thought, okay, this is great. He's gonna I've
Speaker 1: never asked for it, I've never brought it up. He
Speaker 1: comes out of the blue wants to get coffee. I
Speaker 1: think I'm getting paid, right, I go, I have coffee.
Speaker 1: I don't get paid. How long do I go now
Speaker 1: that this relationship is, you know, gone from not talking
Speaker 1: or seeing to each other to at least having coffee
Speaker 1: with each other, do I go like, hey.
Speaker 2: About that loan?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Ye oh, that's a tough one.
Speaker 1: Now, most some people would say, my father and looted.
Speaker 1: When he loan money to friends. It's not alone. It's
Speaker 1: a gift, and you need to know that before you
Speaker 1: do it. So I get that part of it. But
Speaker 1: I'm not going to lie. He ain't that good a friend.
Speaker 2: He's not. And he was in a jam, and I
Speaker 2: wanted to help him out. And I figured, as you
Speaker 2: can tell, is he out of that jam? That was
Speaker 2: a long time ago? You know, looking at it looked
Speaker 2: like it.
Speaker 1: I mean he was driving a fairly probably a two
Speaker 1: year old truck, you know, and married kids, He had
Speaker 1: been working at the same job for a while, had
Speaker 1: gone on some trips, you know. All the things were
Speaker 1: there that told me, hmm, he probably could have paid
Speaker 1: me back.
Speaker 2: But you've seen that, So what would you do? I wouldn't.
Speaker 2: I don't know what the right thing is to do.
Speaker 3: I'll start by saying that, but I wouldn't say anything,
Speaker 3: and I would let it go, otherwise it would bother me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've forgotten about it until Yeah, but I wouldn't
Speaker 2: be really interested in getting back together again. No.
Speaker 1: Right, But when I left there, I go, I'm not
Speaker 1: doing that again. I only went because I thought I
Speaker 1: was getting my money, right, it's gonna be a good
Speaker 1: paid Yeah. I was like, you know, of course I
Speaker 1: won't tell Trussia. I was like, I'm just going to
Speaker 1: meet a buddy.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that sucks, that's awkward. Yeah, I really did think
Speaker 2: that he was going to pay me back.
Speaker 3: But but you know, I mean, I've been in a
Speaker 3: position in my life a couple of times here and
Speaker 3: there where I borrowed from friends or family, and I
Speaker 3: would address it every time I saw them, Yeah, hey,
Speaker 3: I'm going to take care of this. We're gonna be good,
Speaker 3: just letting you know, and where they were even like, hey,
Speaker 3: we're fine. I don't want to hear it, Like yeah,
Speaker 3: you just bring it up and get out in front
Speaker 3: of it. But there's not a better feeling in the
Speaker 3: world than giving it back to him. I've done the
Speaker 3: same thing I bought from a friend and giving it
Speaker 3: back to him is a great feeling.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a half so.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not going to say anything to this guy,
Speaker 1: but I certainly am not getting together with him. And
Speaker 1: I've learned my lesson to not post on social media
Speaker 1: that I'm in Omaha, because then they all, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean?
Speaker 2: Maybe he just wanted to see your mom. Do you
Speaker 2: always have the huts for your mom?
Speaker 1: The Olympics have been fun. I don't seem to think.
Speaker 1: I don't think there's big deal as they used to be.
Speaker 1: But maybe that's just me. I don't know. They've been
Speaker 1: really entertaining though over the little bits and pieces that
Speaker 1: I've seen. It's the Sandy Show and JB is hanging
Speaker 1: out with us today and I do appreciate it. You
Speaker 1: can text us anytime you like. Seven three seven threes
Speaker 1: are a one ninety six hundred big star of the Olympics.
Speaker 1: No surprise, really, I mean it's Simone Biles. She's the
Speaker 1: goat when it comes to women's gymnastics, and she's the
Speaker 1: face of America for good reason when it comes to
Speaker 1: the Olympics. She's been dominant forever and they asked her,
Speaker 1: what's the one question that she'd like to stop hearing.
Speaker 1: Now that her competition has stopped at the Olympics, it
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 2: People are asking what are you gonna do next? And
Speaker 2: she's like, can I just enjoy them enough?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I just want gold medals. I just represented our country.
Speaker 1: I spar what she wants to say. Yeah, can I
Speaker 1: just take a break and be Simon and maybe check
Speaker 1: out the rest of the Olympic Games and hang out
Speaker 1: with my husband who's here.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? That would get old really fast,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 3: Now, that's that's tough because it's yeah, you know, I
Speaker 3: work on some cycling podcasts and we do it all
Speaker 3: the time.
Speaker 2: If that then this, yeah they can get this, Then
Speaker 2: they can get this, and it's it's it will mess up.
Speaker 2: We can't for you guys to speculate on that, but
Speaker 2: to ask them, you know what I mean, Yeah, what's next?
Speaker 3: And I mean and you know this, like you you've
Speaker 3: been in media, you're career like me, You've seen how
Speaker 3: the public loves to build them up and then break
Speaker 3: them down. And Simon's even a great example. She took
Speaker 3: the time out for herself. Yeah, to work on herself
Speaker 3: and and exit for a while and then come back
Speaker 3: and be super dominant. But it's that's human nature of
Speaker 3: It's like more and more and more. Yeah, but then
Speaker 3: when when they're great, we hate them.
Speaker 2: You know. The French are famous for hating winners.
Speaker 6: You know that.
Speaker 2: Oh I didn't know that. Really, Yeah, they don't like winners.
Speaker 1: They've never won anything but one breath. They'd be speaking
Speaker 1: German right now.
Speaker 3: Their their favorite cyclist of all time is a guy
Speaker 3: named Raymond Poulador always came in second to Eddie Murks.
Speaker 2: Really they love most loved cyclists of all of France,
Speaker 2: and even the Frenchmen that have won the tour they
Speaker 2: don't love him as much. No, No, Jakhonkatil, No, that's
Speaker 2: that's wild.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I know what you mean about building people
Speaker 1: up in terms of that. I heard a great analogy
Speaker 1: on something I was watching. He was like, We're all
Speaker 1: a bunch of crab in a big bucket, and one
Speaker 1: of the crab manages to get all the way to
Speaker 1: the top of the bucket, and just as he's about
Speaker 1: to get out, one of those other rotten crabs pulsing
Speaker 1: back down. Every single time, right, But anyway, there was
Speaker 1: something else. Oh, lots of proposals happening at the at
Speaker 1: the Games too, which makes sense, very romantic with friends
Speaker 1: in there, until tower and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2: There is a lot of that.
Speaker 3: And I was watching women's gymnastics, so I don't have
Speaker 3: the names in front of me, But did you see this?
Speaker 3: I think she was French born, but an Algerian Algerian
Speaker 3: gymnast who thought she had the bronze medal in an event.
Speaker 2: Oh no, And I don't know.
Speaker 3: If it was a protest or an inquiry from the
Speaker 3: other American there was. There's Simon and then there's other. Sorry,
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know her name off hand.
Speaker 3: I anyhow, I was they they literally this Algerian gymnast
Speaker 3: is going through the process with a flag wrapped around her,
Speaker 3: getting handed the bronze and they overturned it and she
Speaker 3: just broke down. It was one of the most heartbreaking things.
Speaker 3: I was just like American because immediately, you know, I
Speaker 3: have you know, I just immediately put myself in the
Speaker 3: position of her parents was sitting there with their daughter
Speaker 3: who just.
Speaker 2: You know, it was heartbreaking. It was an American that
Speaker 2: that got the bronze.
Speaker 3: Yeah, sorry, I don't remember the details. I mean, come on,
Speaker 3: I was very I was very casually watching it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like the girl that got the American girls should
Speaker 1: have been like, it's bronze.
Speaker 2: You didn't have it. I I know, I know it's bronze.
Speaker 1: You know, I've got a bunch of gold already from
Speaker 1: the team all around, and you can have your bronze Algeria, Jimmy,
Speaker 1: I don't know if I told you this, but I've
Speaker 1: been very, very intentional in the last two years about
Speaker 1: connecting with my friends, like my buddies, like going and
Speaker 1: meeting for lunch, or going and having breakfast on the weekend,
Speaker 1: or just going to the driving range to hit golf balls,
Speaker 1: or meeting for coffee or anything like that. I've been
Speaker 1: very like, that's a thing for me right now.
Speaker 2: You're a decade away from doing it at what a Burger?
Speaker 2: You're right, Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 1: Just sitting there with the old guys, having the coffee,
Speaker 1: getting the free call, getting the free refills on the coffee.
Speaker 2: You're right.
Speaker 1: But it's just been a thing. I just like, I
Speaker 1: made effort to stay in touch with the guys, you know,
Speaker 1: that I grew up with. Well, I told you earlier
Speaker 1: about my buddy that I had lunch with the other day.
Speaker 1: And he has a twenty three year old son and
Speaker 1: he still tracks him on his phone. He's got another
Speaker 1: son that is a going to be a senior this year.
Speaker 1: I think he already has half of his senior year
Speaker 1: done already. It's weird. I don't understand how school works anymore.
Speaker 1: But there's like kids leaving at semester because they're done,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Anyway, this guy he went
Speaker 1: to Stanford University. His dad went to Stanford, his wife
Speaker 1: went to Stanford, his grandfather went to Stanford. And this
Speaker 1: kid has been accepted at Stamford. Except he's not going
Speaker 1: to go to Stanford because his girlfriend is going to
Speaker 1: Henderson State in Arkansas.
Speaker 2: Do you see where the problem is here?
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, he is a about to lose his
Speaker 1: mind on this. The kid wion't won't budge. He's like,
Speaker 1: I am in love with this girl and I'm going
Speaker 1: to go to Henderson's State with her.
Speaker 3: And there, you know, for most kids, for most kids,
Speaker 3: i'd be like, you know what, where you get your
Speaker 3: degree doesn't matter that much.
Speaker 2: It's just you're getting it. You're checking a box. Good
Speaker 2: for you.
Speaker 3: Stanford does not fall into that category, right, No, yeah,
Speaker 3: especially just if you look at where the world economies
Speaker 3: have headed, A school like Stanford is more aligned with
Speaker 3: the future world and probably anybody, right.
Speaker 2: More than Henderson State at least.
Speaker 3: What hey, before you're too hard, what's the mascot there
Speaker 3: at Henderson's State?
Speaker 2: I haven't looked. I maybe I don't know, Well what
Speaker 2: is it as Stanford? Anyway?
Speaker 1: The tree the cardinal is what the Stanford Cardinal? And
Speaker 1: they have that that tree like a like a Christmas
Speaker 1: tree thing that I'm going to solve this on mascots
Speaker 1: is where I'm going. I'm just saying, if that's my kid,
Speaker 1: what Henderson Henderson State in Arkansas is where he's going
Speaker 1: to says he's going to school because his girlfriend is
Speaker 1: going to school there and he isn't going to go
Speaker 1: to Stamford.
Speaker 3: Like, Okay, I have questions about this girlfriend. H What
Speaker 3: is so special about her that only Henderson State can.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's Henderson State. I think it's what
Speaker 1: she's done to him. She's a year older and so
Speaker 1: she's been at Henderson State for a year and she
Speaker 1: did things to him he's never had done before.
Speaker 4: So you know what I'm saying, they're the Henderson readys
Speaker 4: R E D D I E s. Yeah, but it's
Speaker 4: a tough parenting call. You gotta go to Stanford, you
Speaker 4: don't Henderson state. If you've got an option.
Speaker 2: Is a tough one. Do you just put your foot down.
Speaker 2: We're not going to answer this question here, but he
Speaker 2: was about to lose his mind.
Speaker 1: He's like, I just get just I want to strangle
Speaker 1: him right now because he doesn't want to go to Stanford.
Speaker 2: Like, at least convince him. Start at Stanford.
Speaker 1: Give this a go, Yeah, give it a shot. And
Speaker 1: then because you know he's going to forget about that girl.
Speaker 2: Oh, I know, right, and then you could have a
Speaker 2: lifetime of regrets. And you get done.
Speaker 1: You get done, and safah, you're right about getting your
Speaker 1: degree is okay, you got a degree, but it's a
Speaker 1: different level at Stanford, and you graduate from Stanford.
Speaker 2: You write your own ticket, right, you just you're set.
Speaker 2: So he was, you know, very hospital about it.
Speaker 1: I was like, dude, you need to calm down first
Speaker 1: and not say anything for a little while and revisit
Speaker 1: this right.
Speaker 3: Why don't you suggest he do a research paper on
Speaker 3: Henderson State and get back. Maybe he's just misinformed.
Speaker 2: Maybe so, I don't know, but well, problems with parenting
