Speaker 1: Good morning. It's the Sandy Show where we are proud
Speaker 1: to team up with our bank. Open your account conveniently
Speaker 1: online at www dot r dot bank. Remember fdi se
Speaker 1: Jbi is here today and Cecily's here today but won't
Speaker 1: be here tomorrow. JB's going to be with us all
Speaker 1: week long as Tricia is on a little trip with
Speaker 1: my daughter with our daughter to go see their cousins
Speaker 1: in Boone, North Carolina, where I think the high is
Speaker 1: like seventy five degrees cool today in Boone with low's
Speaker 1: at night in the fifties. You got a little bit
Speaker 1: of that. And well, you were in Colorado for a month, right,
Speaker 1: t B.
Speaker 2: I did. I'm you know, the typical text and trying
Speaker 2: to get to Colorado for a while here and then
Speaker 2: come back and it was weird this year. I came
Speaker 2: back and you know, late July was freakish in Austin.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the coolest July on record ever in Austin. This
Speaker 1: last July was it was great. We got like two
Speaker 1: weeks of clouds and some rain and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: Lake Travis came up seven feet in the month of July,
Speaker 1: which is awesome. Do you Jbie? You're out in Aspen
Speaker 1: working with Lance Armstrong and the covering the Tour de
Speaker 1: France for the whole month. And so while you're there,
Speaker 1: do you run into many austin Nites or Texans while
Speaker 1: you're there? Or do you ever get to leave a studio?
Speaker 2: A little bit of both. There are a lot of
Speaker 2: Austinites hanging out in Aspen. I think they call it Austin.
Speaker 2: It's become a bit of a joke. But yeah, if
Speaker 2: you know anybody that, if you know, if you're a
Speaker 2: longtime Austinite, that's the dream, right. We all love this city.
Speaker 2: But if you can leave in the summer, that's the dream.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I do run into some austin and it's
Speaker 2: it's funny to me because you'll run into them. It's like, oh,
Speaker 2: how long are you here? Let's get together, let's go
Speaker 2: have a drink. We don't do that in Austin, right, yeah, right,
Speaker 2: But for some reason, and when you see them, you know,
Speaker 2: while you're traveling, I was like, oh my god, let's
Speaker 2: get together, Like we don't do this back home, there's
Speaker 2: no need to do this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. It's that whole different mentality.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's not fake it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Plus you can afford to be in this town. I'm
Speaker 2: here for work.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm the hire to help right, Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: know what you mean. But anyway, there's oh jb Cecily.
Speaker 1: I don't mean to leave you out of this because
Speaker 1: you don't live in Austin, You're in LA. But I
Speaker 1: was turned on to a great restaurant over the weekend
Speaker 1: that I want to tell you guys about. It's amazing
Speaker 1: and I imagine it's going to grow and grow. But
Speaker 1: the name of the restaurants is Whip My Soul. Whip
Speaker 1: My Soul, and it is. It's soul food, and it
Speaker 1: is unbelievable and it's at like when I tell you
Speaker 1: where it is, you might be a little bit surprised.
Speaker 1: It's on six point twenty just off of Anderson Mill Road,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You know that intersection out
Speaker 1: there and then there's the AGB and then on the
Speaker 1: other side. That's where it is. And it is unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Some friends of ours from the we're kind of a
Speaker 1: track family now because Landry throws the shot put in
Speaker 1: the discus and stuff. So we're all over the Central
Speaker 1: Texas all summer long. Well, one of the other couple
Speaker 1: families with kids invited us to go, and I mean
Speaker 1: it is unbelievable. I had, like, I had this cornbread
Speaker 1: dressing that was unbelievable, and then they had chicken and
Speaker 1: fish and pork chops and I mean the best sweet
Speaker 1: potatoes I've ever eaten in my life. Do you remember Hoovers?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, better than Hoover's. I think
Speaker 1: it's completely different too. It's like counter service. It's not
Speaker 1: a whit staff or anything like that. But if you're
Speaker 1: ever out in this part of Austin, go check it out.
Speaker 2: It's so it okay not to go too deep on this,
Speaker 2: but for those of you who don't know, I did
Speaker 2: do an Austin history podcast with Michael Barnes to The
Speaker 2: Statesman for several years, so I'm a bit of an
Speaker 2: expert on the history of Austin.
Speaker 1: There you are.
Speaker 2: I am just sharing that, okay, But it makes sense
Speaker 2: while you would have a soul food place out in
Speaker 2: the burbs, like that's Lakeline, uh yeah, pretty.
Speaker 1: Much, yeah, right south of it.
Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, so you know, I grew up in Austin,
Speaker 2: and if you were going to get authentic sulfa, you
Speaker 2: mentioned Hoover's, that's East Austin, It's East Manor. But all
Speaker 2: the authentic soul food was definitely East Austin, probably more
Speaker 2: north of sixth Street, south of one eighty three, that
Speaker 2: area east of thirty five, inside of Airport soul food central.
Speaker 2: But now with a lot of the changes in Austin
Speaker 2: and people I've talked to, a lot of the African
Speaker 2: American families have moved out to the burbs, Cedar Park, Leander, Flugerville,
Speaker 2: round Rock and taking some of that with them makes sense.
Speaker 1: It makes a ton of sense. It's fantastic. I love it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got.
Speaker 3: To tell you, guys, I've lived in a lot of
Speaker 3: cities around the world, and Texas there's nothing beats Texas
Speaker 3: Austin slash Dallas for me for food.
Speaker 4: I mean, nothing in any place that I've traveled to.
Speaker 3: I know that sounds crazy, but I just think Texas
Speaker 3: has the best restaurants of any place I've ever been here.
Speaker 1: Well, it was not like that when I moved here
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety five. It really was it. I mean,
Speaker 1: you grew up here. I mean, getting something like Golden
Speaker 1: Corral was good in Georgia.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean the cuisine and the Austin area.
Speaker 2: Like when you and I first started working together in
Speaker 2: the mid nineties, it was tex Mex so like really
Speaker 2: very cheesy, literally cheesy.
Speaker 4: Bright orange. Yeah.
Speaker 2: What we lived off of again I'm an Austin historian,
Speaker 2: is a lot of chicken fried steak. Yeah, you could
Speaker 2: get chicken fried steak everywhere in Austin. It was like
Speaker 2: as staple as chips and salsa that's gone by the wayside.
Speaker 2: And then of course barbecue. Yeah, we've always been good
Speaker 2: at the barbecue. I think we're better now than ever.
Speaker 2: But it was like Tex Mex chicken fried steak, barbecue,
Speaker 2: not much else. And now it's like, I mean a
Speaker 2: food lover's paradise.
Speaker 1: I mean anything you look at, like the top new
Speaker 1: restaurants in Austin. I'm going through the list. I don't
Speaker 1: know what any of them are. I mean, I have
Speaker 1: no idea what the dog in the flounder is, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? You know what the peacock on
Speaker 1: a string, I don't know what that is. I've never
Speaker 1: heard of these places before, and they're normally a smaller
Speaker 1: you know, what do you call it? Farm to table restaurants?
Speaker 1: Or gang. You know what I'm saying. It's like I
Speaker 1: would never eat there.
Speaker 2: Do you hear that? Wait?
Speaker 4: Sandy, wait, wait, wait? What do you mean you you
Speaker 4: don't like that it's farm to table. I think that's great.
Speaker 4: You want that?
Speaker 1: No, I don't. I don't want farm to table.
Speaker 2: I want you need more hands on this food before.
Speaker 4: I mean you want a loobies, I mean.
Speaker 1: Farm to tables. What that says to me is really
Speaker 1: small portions. That's what it tells me. I'm like, I'm
Speaker 1: going there to eat. I've got this whole thing that
Speaker 1: I'm always worried when I order at a restaurant. It's
Speaker 1: never going to be enough food. It always is, it
Speaker 1: always is it? Really it's a legitimate worry, it really is.
Speaker 1: I'm scared to death that what I order is not
Speaker 1: going to be enough. It's never happened. But it's just
Speaker 1: a fear.
Speaker 2: It's never happened enough.
Speaker 4: You're still worried about it.
Speaker 3: Do you have so much data to support that it's
Speaker 3: not going to happen, But you're still like, that's my
Speaker 3: biggest worry in life, nothing at all.
Speaker 1: Not my biggest worry, but it's a concern every time.
Speaker 2: You know you need to adopt and not to go
Speaker 2: off on tangent. But Sandy and I have this mutual acquaintance.
Speaker 2: His name is Rusty radio radio guy. Anytime you would
Speaker 2: go eat with up Rusty, he would start to make
Speaker 2: He loved buffets, by the way, but anytime he's chatting
Speaker 2: with either the cook somebody you know handling food at
Speaker 2: the buffet, which is ideal, or a waiter, he would
Speaker 2: say the same thing and he goes, you know, he'd
Speaker 2: order right. He'd be like, oh, the chicken fried steak,
Speaker 2: and I get can I get some jell o and so?
Speaker 2: And he always go this, and then you go and
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, could you just put a little
Speaker 2: extra on there, just a little wild, just go wild.
Speaker 2: And he would shake his hands around like it's raining.
Speaker 2: Just just putt put a little extra And it worked
Speaker 2: for him every time. Every time they would just mister Rusty, sasly,
Speaker 2: you look like you could use a good meal.
Speaker 4: Oh thank you, I'm serious.
Speaker 2: That's a Hollywood conflimence.
Speaker 4: Wait does it look like I'm kind of sickly? Thank you?
Speaker 1: You look like you're eating cigarettes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's funny.
Speaker 3: I've always had a really high I haven't had a
Speaker 3: lot of things go for me, but I've had a
Speaker 3: high metabolism, so I eat a lot. I stress heed
Speaker 3: all the time. One of these days I'll get out
Speaker 3: there again and we'll go eat. You'll see.
Speaker 1: I'm impressed. My daughter's got a friend. They're fifteen, and
Speaker 1: the girl comes over. She's tall and skinny, and this
Speaker 1: girl can just put away the food. I mean, we
Speaker 1: had spaghetti and meatballs one night, and I think she
Speaker 1: ate seventeen meatballs one night. It was just like, damn, girl,
Speaker 1: you counted, she counted.
Speaker 2: Are you just refraining from making a comment like you
Speaker 2: had to be just trying to control yourself about how.
Speaker 1: Much he ate? No, I was like, damn, girl, you
Speaker 1: can eat. You're gonna go ahead. I don't know, it's weird.
Speaker 1: I guess like my dad, I love to see people eat.
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I need too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, out here is I don't know if it's a
Speaker 3: big Austin thing, probably not, but there's I have a
Speaker 3: few friends on a zempic, you know, and they didn't
Speaker 3: even need to go on a zempic. They I don't
Speaker 3: have diabetes, they have, but they just wanted to get
Speaker 3: real skinny, and I was always jealous. I was like, well,
Speaker 3: now they have a pill and I that was the
Speaker 3: one thing I got. But there's no zempic to get taller, right,
Speaker 3: I need a no zempic to get taller, and it's
Speaker 3: not I'd take it.
Speaker 4: If they had one, I would do it.
Speaker 1: The thing with those zimpic And we had a guy
Speaker 1: on a health and wellness guy, he's on the show
Speaker 1: with us once a week, and he was like, if
Speaker 1: you do that, you better take your supplements because you
Speaker 1: are ravishing your body of the nutrients that it needs
Speaker 1: to live. You need to supplement.
Speaker 2: Now they arena, it's just devours all your muscle, right.
Speaker 1: Yes, exactly, exactly. Well, didn't mean to get luxury with
Speaker 1: everybody about your ozemthic too. What do they say, you
Speaker 1: do you? I guess you do you? Yeah. JB is
Speaker 1: with us today, so is Cecily Nobler in Los Angeles
Speaker 1: and doing the show. Appreciate that you getting up early, Cecily,
Speaker 1: I know it's super early in Los Angeles.
Speaker 2: My pleasure, JB.
Speaker 1: I don't know why I care about this. I really
Speaker 1: don't because it's got really nothing to do with me.
Speaker 1: But I think our listeners. Longtime listeners would like to
Speaker 1: know something too. Did you sell your airstream?
Speaker 2: I have not yet?
Speaker 1: Oh good, I know you want to sell it, but
Speaker 1: I'm glad you still have it.
Speaker 2: It's I've done a couple price jobs. I think it's
Speaker 2: about my rock bottom and I have not sold it yet.
Speaker 2: So yeah, that's a tough one.
Speaker 4: Where am I going to stay when I come to town?
Speaker 4: You said I could stay in the air.
Speaker 2: I know, I know, I know, I know a little
Speaker 2: pup tent will work just fine for you. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: still have it. I still have it, you know. I'm
Speaker 2: it's when I have things that I'm not one hundred
Speaker 2: percent sold on selling. Like a lot of people can
Speaker 2: relate to this in a marriage when you know their
Speaker 2: spouse is like that needs to go, and you're like
Speaker 2: it's for sale.
Speaker 1: That you put a price on it, that's just insane,
Speaker 1: that's what you're doing. Let me ask you this, would
Speaker 1: you keep it if you could have your old spot
Speaker 1: back at the trailer the place pe cong.
Speaker 2: Grove too expensive?
Speaker 1: How much is it now? This is the one on
Speaker 1: Barton Springs, by the way, that's been there forever and uh,
Speaker 1: in fact, that's where Tricia learned how to drive. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So historically, you know, that's our original restaurant row right
Speaker 2: in Austin was bart and Springs, and there were there
Speaker 2: were actually three RV parks there for a long time.
Speaker 2: There was Shady Grove RV Park. There was one called
Speaker 2: like windsor Manor or something like that, and then there's
Speaker 2: Pecan Grove V Park. Congree Grove is the only one left.
Speaker 2: And I did keep my airstream there for about five
Speaker 2: years or so. It was this was in the mid
Speaker 2: two thousands. It was three hundred and fifty dollars a month.
Speaker 2: That is your space, electric and water. Three fifty that's
Speaker 2: pretty and fifty bucks. Last I heard, it's about seventeen
Speaker 2: hundred dollars a month to park your trailer there. Are
Speaker 2: you serious?
Speaker 1: Oh that's sucks. Serious.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So they kind of ran out all the retirees.
Speaker 1: I mean, the Balloonatic was probably gone balloon Tic.
Speaker 2: Last time I saw the Balloonatic, He's like, I'm out
Speaker 2: of here.
Speaker 1: I'm moving to Hawaii. That's a clown. Cecily So.
Speaker 2: Yeah, a little a little little history of that RV park,
Speaker 2: cecily So. Not only were there there were three or
Speaker 2: four professional clowns living there at one time. I can't
Speaker 2: make this up.
Speaker 4: Would they have a union or something, and so they
Speaker 4: all just had to live in the same spot.
Speaker 2: Ballunatic was there, Limpy and doodle Bug. Doodle Bug most
Speaker 2: famous older woman who would do parties there. But they would,
Speaker 2: you know, they come and go on the weekends, like
Speaker 2: in full gear. You can't show up at the birthday
Speaker 2: party and put on all your stuff. So there were
Speaker 2: there were, Yeah, there were like four clowns. Lance Armstrong
Speaker 2: had a trailer Thereughe Connaughey had a trailer there. Chuck
Speaker 2: Woolery had a trailer there. The game show.
Speaker 1: Host son have one there too.
Speaker 2: Oh I don't know about that one, but it's possible.
Speaker 1: I can't remember his name.
Speaker 2: But anyhow, now it's like, yeah, it's seventeen hundred box
Speaker 2: a month or something to park your trailer.
Speaker 4: Madness.
Speaker 2: It's it's rich people parking their toys there. Now that sucks.
Speaker 2: That's not never what it really was, you know what
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 1: I don't blame the people forgetting the money if they can,
Speaker 1: I don't really blame them, But at the same time,
Speaker 1: it's definitely not the same as it used to being
Speaker 1: said that about a lot of Austin JB. Have you
Speaker 1: seen the guy on Instagram that goes up to people
Speaker 1: and ask them how much they pay in rent or mortgage?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: And then goes and looks at their homes. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's an RV.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The most of the ones, well, the ones that
Speaker 1: I've seen are like the really high end condos and
Speaker 1: downtown Austin.
Speaker 2: Stuff, and it just makes me go, Yeah, there's a
Speaker 2: few different versions of that I've seen, like yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: There's an RV one.
Speaker 2: There's a guy. Yeah, there's one that does it more
Speaker 2: like it's i think it's more out of like, uh,
Speaker 2: you know La area, Okay, the beach people getting by,
Speaker 2: Like it's more of a but you're you're talking about
Speaker 2: these are fancy people.
Speaker 1: How do you live in Austin? Right, right, right right?
Speaker 1: It's just to me, it turns my stomach. It's like,
Speaker 1: that's so much of what is wrong with Austin is.
Speaker 2: What they don't tell you is that they have six roommates.
Speaker 2: You're right, they're fighting them in the broom closet during the.
Speaker 1: Tour, right, not great? Uh where do we get started?
Speaker 1: We started about with your airstream. So the airstream is
Speaker 1: for sale. If someone wanted to buy it, they can
Speaker 1: find reach out to GBO.
Speaker 4: He doesn't want to sell it.
Speaker 2: Hey, it's priced good now, I promise you it's got
Speaker 2: quite a history.
Speaker 1: I've got an interesting airstream trip coming up. I'm going
Speaker 1: up to Well, I'm starting out in Sturgis, South Dakota,
Speaker 1: and then from there going to this little town I
Speaker 1: lively know what it's called to play in a golf
Speaker 1: tournament in Wyoming at Devil's Mountain Golf Club in Wyoming,
Speaker 1: and me and my buddy Marlin are gonna spend three
Speaker 1: nights in his airstream. I don't see this ending well,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I just don't see this going. Well.
Speaker 2: At a Way to Go, you're towing, the airstream is
Speaker 2: going to be there.
Speaker 1: You're the airstream is in South Dakota, so it's only
Speaker 1: like an hour.
Speaker 2: That's a long trip.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's only like an hour and a half
Speaker 1: to Wyoming where we're taking it, so it's already there.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't see this ending well. From Marlan.
Speaker 1: All right, guys, I'll admit it. I got this this
Speaker 1: topic off of Reddit, but I thought it was pretty funny.
Speaker 1: But there's some weird that the people on Reddit are weird.
Speaker 1: They're just who who are these people commenting on Reddit?
Speaker 1: Who sits there and comments on me? I don't understand
Speaker 1: it that you know who? I really don't understand the
Speaker 1: people that leave Amazon reviews? Who who does this? Thank
Speaker 1: god you do it, because I read Amazon reviews on
Speaker 1: everything I buy. But I would never in my life
Speaker 1: take time to write a review for a product that
Speaker 1: I bought.
Speaker 2: They're surely getting paid to do it.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no, I review things I review on Yelp
Speaker 4: all the time.
Speaker 1: Yes, I love it. That is I mean if they do.
Speaker 1: You know how you get something bad off of Yelp?
Speaker 1: You pay them? Did you know that?
Speaker 4: Oh it's like they hold it hostage.
Speaker 1: Yes exactly.
Speaker 3: Oh so I'm the reason they're having to pay because
Speaker 3: if I leave a one star review, they're like, get
Speaker 3: this one off.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I got. I got offered a couple of
Speaker 2: grand take a bad review off of I got a
Speaker 2: water mainline put in the house, and and I even
Speaker 2: told the guy they called me right after it and
Speaker 2: I said, look, historically I only do good reviews. I said,
Speaker 2: this was such bad service that I didn't want anyone
Speaker 2: to go through what I'm doing, and they offered me
Speaker 2: two grand to take it down.
Speaker 1: Oh you took the money, right.
Speaker 2: I did well. I stretched it out. I thought i'd
Speaker 2: get more and I ended up with nothing. Oh what
Speaker 2: did you ask for?
Speaker 4: What did you try to get them up to?
Speaker 2: Well? Is it? The job still wasn't finished, so I
Speaker 2: didn't want to tell. Yeah, but it was weird, and
Speaker 2: I just that's the only time I've done a negative review,
Speaker 2: like I try to do positive ones. But my point
Speaker 2: was they were willing to pay me to take it down.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I flanched her something. I'm gonna just
Speaker 1: start writing a bunch of bad reviews everywhere and see
Speaker 1: how much money I can make take them down.
Speaker 2: Five dollars. Yeah, I could go.
Speaker 1: I would write those reviews, but I would take up
Speaker 1: my time from the money I make doing surveys online.
Speaker 1: Here's the rated thing that caught my eye though. Name
Speaker 1: an R rated thing that looks sexy in movies but
Speaker 1: not great in real life, And the first thing that
Speaker 1: came to my mind was taking a shower with somebody
Speaker 1: else that that looks great in a movie but it's
Speaker 1: not so great and real. It just it doesn't work out.
Speaker 1: Too slippery, I can't get me. There's a little friction.
Speaker 1: It's just too slippery, doesn't work out.
Speaker 2: I agree, Yeah, do I use a washhrage.
Speaker 1: Just the bar on them is an option? You know,
Speaker 1: it's not it's not great.
Speaker 2: It's complicated.
Speaker 1: You guys got any.
Speaker 3: Well there's the car thing we were talking about, like,
Speaker 3: you know, it seems it seems real cute, like in
Speaker 3: the I don't know, they're always in the front seat
Speaker 3: and they lean the seed back and it seems so
Speaker 3: easy to have sex in the car. But I don't
Speaker 3: unless it's a Limo, which I have done.
Speaker 1: It's not easys got lots of room.
Speaker 4: Well that that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: Unless it's that, then you know, just a regular car
Speaker 3: that it's sexy in a movie but not in real life.
Speaker 2: And of all people, you're the least likely to need
Speaker 2: a limo.
Speaker 4: They're going to make a joke about my size because
Speaker 4: I'm so small. I guess I could do it.
Speaker 2: A Mini Cooper would have been fine.
Speaker 4: Oh I thought you meant.
Speaker 3: Least likely to because I wouldn't go to a fancy place.
Speaker 4: So I wouldn't need a lit like you you would need.
Speaker 4: Let's just get you a little wagon.
Speaker 1: Anything off the top of your head, JB.
Speaker 2: I know it's it's like, this wasn't intended to turn into, uh,
Speaker 2: just sexual activities, was it? It just turned into that.
Speaker 1: It's just anything that looks fun in an R rated movie,
Speaker 1: but it's not great in real life.
Speaker 2: Which would probably which would mean hooking up on in
Speaker 2: an airplane. Yeah, in the mathroom, it seems like a
Speaker 2: really sexy idea. And then but you know it's just
Speaker 2: got to be horrible.
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you mentioned a small cars, JB. W
Speaker 1: To wrap this up for a second, but my daughter
Speaker 1: has an incredible disdain for a green Kia Soul. She
Speaker 1: hates them. She sees them on the car and out
Speaker 1: when we're out about she takes pictures of them. It's like,
Speaker 1: who would ever drive a green key? I don't know
Speaker 1: where it came from. I don't know what it is,
Speaker 1: but guess what she's gonna get on her sixteenth birthday
Speaker 1: or your kissoul. The Olympics are in full swing. They've
Speaker 1: been pretty fun, they've been entertained, a lot of great
Speaker 1: stories told, but it's funny. If you look on social media,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people that are posting videos of
Speaker 1: Olympic performances from the nineteen thirties the nineteen forties, where
Speaker 1: you've got like the high jumper, the gold medalist jumped
Speaker 1: three feet, you know, the long jumper jumped like twelve
Speaker 1: feet something like that. And so I kind of went
Speaker 1: down a rabbit hole looked at some of the old
Speaker 1: competitions that used to be part of the Olympic Games.
Speaker 1: Things like tug of war were in the Olympics. Yeah, y,
Speaker 1: tug of war.
Speaker 2: Got a field day favorite.
Speaker 1: Listen to this live pigeon shooting live pigeons in the
Speaker 1: nineteen hundreds. In that nineteen hundred Paris Games, they were
Speaker 1: shooting live animals in them. I don't know how they
Speaker 1: did it. But solo synchronized swimming, don't you have to
Speaker 1: have someone else to synchronize with. I don't know how
Speaker 1: that worked. There was also rope climbing was in an
Speaker 1: Olympic event. In gymnastics, they had a horse long jump
Speaker 1: where they see how far the horse could jump, how
Speaker 1: far they could jump. Also, go ahead, Jimmy.
Speaker 2: No, because I mean, what horse doesn't want a golden medal.
Speaker 2: I mean they all they talk about it.
Speaker 1: But also fishing was included as a demonstration sport in
Speaker 1: the Olympics. No medals awarded, but fishing was introduced. I'll
Speaker 1: tell you who's become a big star in JBU were
Speaker 1: talking about it earlier. The female rugby player for the
Speaker 1: United States. She's a big star this isle.
Speaker 2: Know, I'm probably watching ten of the Olympic coverage that
Speaker 2: I would like to watch it so much. Yeah, like
Speaker 2: why do we have to jam it all into ten days?
Speaker 2: Like anyway, there is a lot of interesting side stories
Speaker 2: and I actually thought about you if you have not
Speaker 2: seen this young woman. So the women's rugby US rugby
Speaker 2: got a bronze medal, which is a big deal. Huge,
Speaker 2: it's huge. They're just not a rugby country in that
Speaker 2: we're talking women's rugby and it was a big deal.
Speaker 2: And there's an athlete on that team. Sorry if I'm
Speaker 2: saying your name wrong, but Yona mar m a h R.
Speaker 2: And she is awesome. She has built this huge fan
Speaker 2: base during the Olympics. She has two million Instagram followers.
Speaker 2: At one point she was like, oh my god, what
Speaker 2: if I get to a million? Like two days later
Speaker 2: it was it two million Wow. And she's a rugby player. Like,
Speaker 2: so there's two things going on. One, she's just adorably cute,
Speaker 2: but she is built like a machine. And so those
Speaker 2: who don't know Sandy played rugby, uh, it's a tough,
Speaker 2: tough sport. And her shoulders are like they're built like yours. Like, yeah,
Speaker 2: she's just run over people. But and she just if
Speaker 2: if you want to give your daughter someone.
Speaker 1: To follow, I'll put it that way that.
Speaker 2: I think is inspiring for young women. This is a
Speaker 2: good one.
Speaker 1: Yes, she is.
Speaker 2: Now Yeah, I saw a funny clip. She's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I had my Olympics hat on and I was in
Speaker 2: the grocery store and this this old guy asked me,
Speaker 2: are you an Olympian? And she's like, well, yeah, I
Speaker 2: actually I am. And he's like what in gymnastics? Like
Speaker 2: he just threw it out there, and she's like, I'm
Speaker 2: two hundred pounds yeah, like you know, and she's just
Speaker 2: like laughing, and you know, she just embraces her her
Speaker 2: her size, her physicality and what God gave her. And
Speaker 2: she's just so endearing.
Speaker 1: She said that someone was being some hater was like
Speaker 1: saying her body mass index is probably like thirty percent,
Speaker 1: And she responded, she goes, yeah it is. My body
Speaker 1: mass index is thirty percent. But I'm going to the
Speaker 1: Olympics and you're not. I love it.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, That's what I'm talking about. Like this is
Speaker 2: we need more role models like this. Like I agree,
Speaker 2: she's adorable. She's having a blast. She's like she did
Speaker 2: a funny clip like it was literally just it's funny.
Speaker 2: You mentioned pigeons a second ago. It was this pigeon
Speaker 2: kind of falling around and all she was doing this
Speaker 2: is the streets streets of Paris, was complaining about the
Speaker 2: paparazzi not all like she just gets it, like anyhow
Speaker 2: Leona ma M A h E R I think is
Speaker 2: how you spell it. But such a good follow like
Speaker 2: and just a cool story out of the Olympics.
Speaker 1: Hey, if you recently updated your iPhone to the latest
Speaker 1: software update, there's something that you need to know about
Speaker 1: and it's pretty simple to do. I'll tell you about
Speaker 1: that in just a second. JB is hanging out with
Speaker 1: us today, so is Cecily. Cecily, what do you got
Speaker 1: going on that You're so busy you can only do
Speaker 1: one day?
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm going to the Olympics. Oh, I am competing
Speaker 3: in the rugby uh thingy and uh.
Speaker 4: No, I've just got a lot of podcasts that I do.
Speaker 3: I do two podcasts. It's not as fancy as JB's
Speaker 3: and well.
Speaker 1: Rose Pricks is one of them, right, yeah.
Speaker 4: Rose Pricks. We cover a bunch of reality shows.
Speaker 3: We as me and my partner Stephanie Wilder Taylor are
Speaker 3: not partner in life but podcast partner. And we also
Speaker 3: have one called bored a f where we just tell
Speaker 3: dumb dating stories and stupid life stories things like that.
Speaker 1: So grab those podcasts wherever where we get your podcasts,
Speaker 1: grab those again. One is called rose Pricks and the
Speaker 1: other one is called boord af r F. Check those
Speaker 1: out at it.
Speaker 2: Did you guys podcasts which you got? I hate boord
Speaker 2: af What one is called Kiddy?
Speaker 3: You know it's weird that you're just not telling me
Speaker 3: this because that's very specific.
Speaker 2: No, And to make it easier, wherever you get your.
Speaker 1: Podcast, Oh, your iPhone, there is a setting on your
Speaker 1: iPhone that you guys need to change if you did
Speaker 1: the new update. It's secretly tracking you and could allow
Speaker 1: others to interact with your phone when they're near you. Okay,
Speaker 1: So what you need to do is go to your
Speaker 1: settings and then choose the privacy and security tab, tap it,
Speaker 1: and then below that click on journal or journal lean
Speaker 1: and then turn that off. All right, turn it off
Speaker 1: because it just opens the door for people around you
Speaker 1: to interact with you, be at stores sitting coupons, or
Speaker 1: stores marketing to you or whatever. It's just something that
Speaker 1: they slip in there when you did when you're up
Speaker 1: with the update, that they don't tell you about. So
Speaker 1: that's why I'm here to tell you about these things.
Speaker 2: So the tricky thing when you share things like that
Speaker 2: is like, are you sharing it because you think like
Speaker 2: a criminal and don't want to get caught or you're
Speaker 2: just like one of those paranoid citizens.
Speaker 4: I'm like both, very honest.
Speaker 1: Well the reason a little bit of both. But what
Speaker 1: it really it makes me mad that they did it
Speaker 1: without telling making a big deal about it and telling everybody.
Speaker 1: It just seems sneaky to me. So I'm gonna, you know,
Speaker 1: shoot the middle finger at the man and turn it
Speaker 1: off so you can't do it, you know what i mean? Yeah,
Speaker 1: just yeah, they look they've got everything, honest already, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, you're who you are and what
Speaker 1: you are. They know everything, so they don't need to
Speaker 1: know anymore. I hope not anyway, So turn it up.
Speaker 2: I'm just have the mindset and this is probably stupid,
Speaker 2: like if you're bored enough to follow me through life, like,
Speaker 2: I'm not enjoying this journey. So what does that say
Speaker 2: about you that you want to follow me through this?
Speaker 2: That is brilliant?
Speaker 1: That were you with me? When we were in New
Speaker 1: Orleans once when I had my fortune red and they
Speaker 1: told me. I was, oh yeah, I think it was
Speaker 1: a rugby trip and I got my fortune red by
Speaker 1: one of the street fortune tellers and she was like,
Speaker 1: oh wow, you're going to live to a really old age.
Speaker 1: I was like.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, oh.
Speaker 1: I don't want I don't want that. Oh are you sure?
Speaker 1: Take it? Look at my palm again please, And then
Speaker 1: she was like, oh no, no, no, I was a mistake.
Speaker 1: That was your other line. She so yeah, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: she changed her entire thing.
Speaker 2: So me read your foot.
Speaker 1: Right exactly again. Check that out on your iPhone. Turn
Speaker 1: it off. I'll go through one more time. Settings Privacy
Speaker 1: and Security tab, click on journaling and then click turn
Speaker 1: it off. Cecily, time for you to earn your pay
Speaker 1: that you're not getting her this show.
Speaker 4: My venos open if you want, you can just go ahead.
Speaker 2: Okay open you know what.
Speaker 1: I'll send you a five to find it out. Cecily
Speaker 1: is here today, Tricia is out. JB is also with us.
Speaker 1: And for those of you that are not listening in
Speaker 1: Austin that don't know the history, JB and I did
Speaker 1: a morning radio show together for eighteen years and he's
Speaker 1: cool enough to come back and help out when Tricia
Speaker 1: is not is not here, So that's what's going on.
Speaker 1: Trish will be out all week. JB will be with
Speaker 1: us all week. Cecily just for today. But Cecily, I
Speaker 1: need you to make to do what you do best
Speaker 1: and tell us what's going on. In the movies. I mean,
Speaker 1: Deadpool Wolverine is huge right now.
Speaker 3: I mean it's the it's my favorite of the year
Speaker 3: so far. So there's a lot of bad stuff in theaters.
Speaker 4: I'm not I'm not gonna.
Speaker 3: I don't need to go through all that because who cares.
Speaker 3: But dead Pool and Wolverine. First of all, as you know,
Speaker 3: it's breaking to all the records within one weekend. It
Speaker 3: was like half a billion dollar. I mean, this is
Speaker 3: globally but it's insanity. You know, it's got the Marvel
Speaker 3: hype and it's got you know, it's even if you're
Speaker 3: not a Marvel fan.
Speaker 4: I don't think you guys are. You're not into bad stuff, right.
Speaker 1: I'm not. But I get it. I know it's huge.
Speaker 1: I know it's huge audiences for this. It's just not
Speaker 1: my thing.
Speaker 4: I get that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I peaked with any superhero stuff with Hong Kong food,
Speaker 2: So spend some time since then, because it just it
Speaker 2: couldn't it couldn't get better.
Speaker 1: So I was I was a loofer Igno as the
Speaker 1: Hulk guy, you'll.
Speaker 2: Make him angry.
Speaker 1: Oh no, oh no, But this is a big deal.
Speaker 1: And do you have any insight? I said it because
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about another movie that's out
Speaker 1: right now, if it's any good. I don't know if
Speaker 1: it's out yet, the new Matt Damon ben Affleck movie.
Speaker 4: Which one.
Speaker 1: I think it's called Instigators or something like that. I
Speaker 1: just saw it.
Speaker 4: I haven't seen that yet.
Speaker 3: But I want to tell you something about Dadpool before
Speaker 3: you move on, because I got to tell you something.
Speaker 4: First of all, go see it. If you can see
Speaker 4: it in IMAX.
Speaker 3: Do that, however, the biggest, loudest theater you can find.
Speaker 3: Because my point of bringing up the Marvel stuff is
Speaker 3: you don't have to be a fan of that to
Speaker 3: love it. It's so filthy, I don't, you know, leave
Speaker 3: your kids. Although there were a lot of kids at
Speaker 3: the press screening, but these are like Hollywood kids, so
Speaker 3: they've heard it all, they've seen it all.
Speaker 4: They're like a lot of seven year olds.
Speaker 3: But what I will also tell you this is a
Speaker 3: little inside scoop. They gave all the press these popcorn
Speaker 3: buckets that you couldn't get they were going to.
Speaker 4: I think if they sell them, they're super expensive.
Speaker 3: I can't tell you exactly what that popcorn bucket was
Speaker 3: because this is probably a family show. But on the
Speaker 3: side of it it says it's designed by Deadpool and
Speaker 3: it's Wolverine's face, and I can't tell you anything else,
Speaker 3: but you can look it up and it's kind of
Speaker 3: are And they're selling them on eBay. I didn't sell mine,
Speaker 3: I should have, but they're selling them for like one
Speaker 3: hundred bucks, these popcorn buckets, because they're you know, I
Speaker 3: now Sandy's making a face like he's grossed out.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, I was wondering that these buckets only
Speaker 1: given to the to the critics like you guys, well.
Speaker 4: I think you can buy them.
Speaker 3: I think you can get like if you go and
Speaker 3: buy a package deal when you get your popcorn and stuff,
Speaker 3: and they'll be like for all for fifty dollars, you
Speaker 3: can get this very fancy wolverine bucket.
Speaker 4: But it's dirty. It's it's a it's a dirty little joke,
Speaker 4: and so I don't want it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 4: I can't say what it is.
Speaker 3: But that was that was exciting for those who are fans.
Speaker 3: And also you mentioned Twisters. That was something you were
Speaker 3: you know, I feel like we live that. Though we
Speaker 3: don't need to see Tornado movies.
Speaker 4: We lived it.
Speaker 1: But it's huge the movie, right.
Speaker 3: It did well, especially for a reboot, you know, for
Speaker 3: something we haven't. The original Twister came out in nineteen
Speaker 3: ninety six, right, Bill Paxton, if you remember back in
Speaker 3: the day, way back, so yeah, I was Helen Hunt
Speaker 3: when she was doing like kind of romantic action leads,
Speaker 3: so long ago we're talking, but this one is sort
Speaker 3: of the poor man's tom Cruise Glenn Powell, which I
Speaker 3: find him a little bland. I feel like he makes
Speaker 3: Vanilla look exciting. Is he a he's an Austin guy. Yep, well,
Speaker 3: now see I always stick my foot. Well, no, he's
Speaker 3: my favorite.
Speaker 1: The movie Matt Damon and Casey Affleck. It's called The Instigators.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's like a buddy comedy type of thing.
Speaker 4: And it's out now. Did I miss it?
Speaker 1: No, I don't think it's out yet, but it's it's
Speaker 1: coming soon, I guess.
Speaker 3: I'm excited about Wicked. That's the big one that's coming
Speaker 3: out before the end of the year. If you're a
Speaker 3: musical theater guy, which I know both of you are,
Speaker 3: got that comes except we're not
