<v Speaker 1>have prepared for her trip to Iceland, which I want

3
00:00:07.719 --> 00:00:09.960
<v Speaker 1>to hear more about, which sounds like a great place

4
00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:10.320
<v Speaker 1>to visit.

5
00:00:10.359 --> 00:00:10.519
<v Speaker 2>JB.

6
00:00:10.560 --> 00:00:12.119
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell us about it in just a second, but

7
00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:14.880
<v Speaker 1>real quick. There's something going on this all this weekend.

8
00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:16.039
<v Speaker 1>You might want to get out and check it out.

9
00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:17.719
<v Speaker 1>I've actually been to it. It's a lot of fun.

10
00:00:18.120 --> 00:00:20.719
<v Speaker 1>It is the Austin Greek Festival.

11
00:00:21.079 --> 00:00:23.640
<v Speaker 2>This is happening this weekend. If you want to get

12
00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:26.679
<v Speaker 2>out and we have great food, great fun.

13
00:00:27.719 --> 00:00:33.240
<v Speaker 1>If you want to dance sorority girls.

14
00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:33.119
<v Speaker 2>Not that one.

15
00:00:33.159 --> 00:00:36.079
<v Speaker 1>This is living the Greek life that's going on at

16
00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:37.880
<v Speaker 1>the Transfiguration.

17
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:38.280
<v Speaker 2>Greek Orthodox Church.

18
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:42.399
<v Speaker 1>It starts Friday at eleven goes till Sunday at ten o'clock.

19
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:44.640
<v Speaker 1>Maybe I have a soft spot for these types of festivals.

20
00:00:44.679 --> 00:00:46.719
<v Speaker 1>I grew up going to these types of church festivals

21
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:49.119
<v Speaker 1>as a kid. There was every parish would have a

22
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:51.920
<v Speaker 1>different festival and it was always fun and we'd wait

23
00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:55.759
<v Speaker 1>until the last night at the festival. At One of

24
00:00:55.799 --> 00:00:57.759
<v Speaker 1>the best ones was at Saint Peter and Paul was

25
00:00:57.799 --> 00:01:00.359
<v Speaker 1>which was mostly Italian people, and at the end of

26
00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:03.079
<v Speaker 1>the Sunday night they had would have all these Italian

27
00:01:03.119 --> 00:01:05.920
<v Speaker 1>sausage and peppers and stuff left over, and they would

28
00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:07.200
<v Speaker 1>sell them to us for like a quarter.

29
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:10.319
<v Speaker 2>You know, we would sit there and eat like ten

30
00:01:10.359 --> 00:01:10.719
<v Speaker 2>of them.

31
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:13.519
<v Speaker 3>At the end of the festival, Sandy just waiting for

32
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:14.040
<v Speaker 3>the sausage.

33
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:14.400
<v Speaker 2>I have to go.

34
00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:19.359
<v Speaker 1>And it was amazing how the parish priest always won

35
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:20.239
<v Speaker 1>the car giveaway.

36
00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:27.079
<v Speaker 4>It's always weird how that happened, very very very priest

37
00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:27.480
<v Speaker 4>down it.

38
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:31.280
<v Speaker 1>Jabie's daughter quite the world traveler. She's been to New

39
00:01:31.359 --> 00:01:35.159
<v Speaker 1>Zealand recently. Now she's off to Iceland and you guys

40
00:01:35.159 --> 00:01:36.879
<v Speaker 1>wanted to figure out what's going on in Iceland.

41
00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Tell everyone how you did it.

42
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:40.400
<v Speaker 3>I know she's very adventurous and I like that, and

43
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:42.840
<v Speaker 3>I encourage her to do it. She loves traveling, and

44
00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:46.079
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, yeah, she's twenty three years old, by the way,

45
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:47.840
<v Speaker 3>and I was like, you know, in my twenties, I

46
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:50.760
<v Speaker 3>was addicted to work. All I did was work, work, work, work, work,

47
00:01:50.840 --> 00:01:52.319
<v Speaker 3>and then all of a sudden you wake up and

48
00:01:52.359 --> 00:01:54.439
<v Speaker 3>you're in your forties and you go, wait, when happened.

49
00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:57.159
<v Speaker 3>It can happen pretty easily, So I encourage her to

50
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:01.920
<v Speaker 3>travel she loves it. She is going going with her

51
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:06.000
<v Speaker 3>boyfriend and their family, and I say boyfriend loosely. They're

52
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:08.840
<v Speaker 3>kind of not sure where they are right now, but

53
00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:11.039
<v Speaker 3>they're going on the trip together anyway, let's leave it

54
00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:14.479
<v Speaker 3>at that. And they had planned this for like, I

55
00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:19.080
<v Speaker 3>don't know, six months, and so I was like, she

56
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:22.159
<v Speaker 3>was asking me about Iceland. I'd like, I have no idea,

57
00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:24.759
<v Speaker 3>but it's just and this is what I'm about to

58
00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:26.960
<v Speaker 3>say is probably so obvious a lot of you are

59
00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:30.039
<v Speaker 3>going to sit there and go duh. But I was like, well,

60
00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:32.919
<v Speaker 3>let's watch some travel shows on YouTube. And then I'm like,

61
00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:36.400
<v Speaker 3>you tend to go grab your laptop and pop it open,

62
00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:38.240
<v Speaker 3>right right, And I'm like, oh, well, why don't we

63
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:41.479
<v Speaker 3>just watch these on the YouTube app on our big

64
00:02:41.520 --> 00:02:46.719
<v Speaker 3>screen TV. And it's I was shocked at how many

65
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:53.759
<v Speaker 3>really well produced, good YouTube travel shows there are, like,

66
00:02:53.879 --> 00:03:00.479
<v Speaker 3>not network shows, not travel networks, just people YouTubers up here.

67
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:03.560
<v Speaker 3>Ten things you got to do in Iceland, right and

68
00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:05.719
<v Speaker 3>then and then of course the algorithm takes you to

69
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:07.319
<v Speaker 3>the next one, and the next one and the next one.

70
00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:11.360
<v Speaker 3>We just sat there and watched all these tourism shows

71
00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:13.479
<v Speaker 3>on Iceland and she just sat there and kind of

72
00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:16.199
<v Speaker 3>made her list. You know, it's gonna be a lot

73
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:18.639
<v Speaker 3>of hiking and hot springs and stuff like that.

74
00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:23.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because there's a huge volcano there, right, Yeah, that

75
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:25.800
<v Speaker 1>and there's a lot of hot springs that the water

76
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:28.840
<v Speaker 1>table has been heated by them because of the volcano.

77
00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:29.719
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

78
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:31.879
<v Speaker 3>And then you know, some of the people just say

79
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:33.840
<v Speaker 3>it's the most one of the most beautiful places they've

80
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:37.319
<v Speaker 3>ever been, Right, but then the weather, the weather can

81
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:40.639
<v Speaker 3>be really dicey in May, like you don't know if

82
00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:44.319
<v Speaker 3>it could be forty degrees or eighty degrees one day

83
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:44.840
<v Speaker 3>to the next.

84
00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:46.759
<v Speaker 5>So is she gonna make sure she tries to see

85
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:47.560
<v Speaker 5>the northern lights?

86
00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:49.840
<v Speaker 3>I think that's on the list.

87
00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

88
00:03:50.280 --> 00:03:51.759
<v Speaker 3>They I mean they're gonna be there. It's like a

89
00:03:51.800 --> 00:03:54.159
<v Speaker 3>ten day trip, well a couple of days in Boston,

90
00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:58.759
<v Speaker 3>but but anyhow, it's just like, I guess the point is,

91
00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:01.800
<v Speaker 3>I just didn't think of using YouTube that way, that

92
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:03.800
<v Speaker 3>we would all just sit around and watch shows together

93
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:04.639
<v Speaker 3>on YouTube.

94
00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:07.439
<v Speaker 1>YouTube shows, right, and has what I always wonder what

95
00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:10.639
<v Speaker 1>the travel shows, like, how do these people get money

96
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:13.120
<v Speaker 1>to go do this? Like I would love to have

97
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:14.759
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of money to go make a travel show

98
00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:15.479
<v Speaker 1>about Iceland.

99
00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:19.040
<v Speaker 3>They're they're they're banking on enough views to pay for it.

100
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:22.040
<v Speaker 2>That's not a smart business plan.

101
00:04:22.360 --> 00:04:24.079
<v Speaker 6>And then if they get enough views, then they get

102
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:25.920
<v Speaker 6>sponsors who pay for them to do the travel.

103
00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:28.759
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and this is believing. We've had a couple of

104
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:35.079
<v Speaker 3>encounters with influencers. Yeah, when like, because so my daughter

105
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:37.199
<v Speaker 3>has a wake surf school and we've had a couple

106
00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:40.639
<v Speaker 3>of people go, uh, yeah, do you have do you

107
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:43.920
<v Speaker 3>have any programs for influencers And you're like, uh.

108
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:46.600
<v Speaker 5>No, we actually charge them more.

109
00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:48.360
<v Speaker 3>They expect things for free.

110
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:50.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, a lot of them expect they call you want

111
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:52.839
<v Speaker 1>to do it for free because they're an influencer.

112
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:56.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and you know what usually shuts them up because

113
00:04:56.639 --> 00:05:00.000
<v Speaker 3>they'll go, well, you know, i've got five hundred thousand instagrams,

114
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.399
<v Speaker 3>sscribers or TikTok or whatever. They go, just tell him,

115
00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:07.839
<v Speaker 3>show me a post of something you promoted. Then you

116
00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:11.800
<v Speaker 3>know that you've got a hookup on and show me

117
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:15.480
<v Speaker 3>the results it got. And they can't produce one. They

118
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:19.680
<v Speaker 3>have a general subscribership of junk users. But yeah, you know,

119
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:21.879
<v Speaker 3>if they share something they did, you go, you've only

120
00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:24.319
<v Speaker 3>got twenty likes like, how am I going to convert

121
00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:26.839
<v Speaker 3>that into business? So it's very annoying.

122
00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:29.680
<v Speaker 1>I kind of remember reading an article about like some

123
00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:33.240
<v Speaker 1>hotels somewhere was they got a huge issue with people

124
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:37.000
<v Speaker 1>calling them all the time to do make content, but

125
00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:39.120
<v Speaker 1>they didn't want to pay for the room or the

126
00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:43.720
<v Speaker 1>spa or whatever. We had an experience ab with a

127
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:47.879
<v Speaker 1>guy's a travel guy travel show, a Texas travel show,

128
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:50.360
<v Speaker 1>and we were at the spot that he was doing

129
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:54.079
<v Speaker 1>the story on and I introduced myself and visited and stuff,

130
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:56.360
<v Speaker 1>and you know, gave him a business card and was like.

131
00:05:56.319 --> 00:05:57.959
<v Speaker 2>Hey, we'd love to have you on the radio show.

132
00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:00.199
<v Speaker 1>And then I was like, Trisha, were you call and

133
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:02.279
<v Speaker 1>try to book this guy on the radio show? You

134
00:06:02.439 --> 00:06:04.519
<v Speaker 1>think we were trying to get George Clooney on the show.

135
00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:12.319
<v Speaker 4>I was like, we're good, yeah, never mind, never exactly example,

136
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:15.680
<v Speaker 4>you're too difficult, No, thank you, We're done, goodbye.

137
00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:16.680
<v Speaker 2>And that was the end of that.

138
00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:19.839
<v Speaker 3>So well, I hope she has a great I guess

139
00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:20.399
<v Speaker 3>who that is?

140
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:23.120
<v Speaker 2>Off the air? How's that? Okay, you'll guess?

141
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:26.959
<v Speaker 1>I think you probably now is this a backpacking trip

142
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:29.079
<v Speaker 1>or is this? You know, how are they doing it?

143
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:33.000
<v Speaker 3>It's just they are going to do a lot of hiking,

144
00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:36.399
<v Speaker 3>and she loves hiking really except for that time we

145
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:37.959
<v Speaker 3>sent her to a wilderness program.

146
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:39.879
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, she has a lot of experience.

147
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:45.079
<v Speaker 3>She was very mad about it at the time. Now

148
00:06:45.160 --> 00:06:49.879
<v Speaker 3>she reflects fondly on her lover of nature. It took

149
00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:51.879
<v Speaker 3>a minute to get there. Oh, she's going to kick

150
00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:55.040
<v Speaker 3>you in the growing and she laughs about it. Now,

151
00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:57.720
<v Speaker 3>she laughs about it. I have another friend whose son

152
00:06:57.759 --> 00:06:59.120
<v Speaker 3>went to that twice.

153
00:06:59.560 --> 00:06:59.959
<v Speaker 2>Actually.

154
00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:03.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, she jokes that she was the strongest hiker, so

155
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:05.120
<v Speaker 3>she'd have to carry all the pots and pans. They

156
00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:08.920
<v Speaker 3>just be clanking her and they'd be gone. They'd be

157
00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:10.319
<v Speaker 3>gone for weeks at a time.

158
00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:14.319
<v Speaker 1>All right, Austin is we're real good at complaining about

159
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:17.360
<v Speaker 1>things that are going away. I mean, Austin Knight's are

160
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:19.680
<v Speaker 1>really really good at that. And there's another one that's

161
00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:21.439
<v Speaker 1>going away. But I'm kind of on the other side

162
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:24.279
<v Speaker 1>of it. I'm like, okay, whatever, we'll get to it

163
00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:27.000
<v Speaker 1>in just a second. I got a first effort thing

164
00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:29.319
<v Speaker 1>happened to me with Amazon. Thought i'd seen it all

165
00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:32.639
<v Speaker 1>with Amazon. Got a message from them it said, hey,

166
00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:40.639
<v Speaker 1>your item might be lost. Thanks, So I clicked on

167
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:44.000
<v Speaker 1>the thing and it said you want to cancel this

168
00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:46.879
<v Speaker 1>or get a refund? Yes, click, and they go, well,

169
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:49.199
<v Speaker 1>not so fast. It might not be that lost. We

170
00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:52.040
<v Speaker 1>might be able to find it. I'm like, that's weird,

171
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:54.920
<v Speaker 1>all right. It's first time ever for Amazon. Of all

172
00:07:54.959 --> 00:07:57.879
<v Speaker 1>this stuff I've ever ordered, they've never lost anything. It's

173
00:07:57.920 --> 00:08:00.279
<v Speaker 1>not a big deal. It's a stupid little thing that

174
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:03.160
<v Speaker 1>it cleans the inside of your window on your car.

175
00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:05.279
<v Speaker 1>It's on a little stick and it's got a microfiber

176
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:07.839
<v Speaker 1>thing and you just kind of like a squeegee.

177
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:10.360
<v Speaker 3>Oh that sounds like an INSTA got me as I call.

178
00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:10.600
<v Speaker 2>It, and.

179
00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:14.800
<v Speaker 5>I one so cool. He's jealous of mine?

180
00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:17.199
<v Speaker 2>You can borrow mine, cdy No, no, no, I don't

181
00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:18.079
<v Speaker 2>like to borrow things from.

182
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:19.759
<v Speaker 5>Treesture because she don't give him back.

183
00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:21.720
<v Speaker 2>And then and if it doesn't.

184
00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Come back exactly like you took it from her, she

185
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:24.879
<v Speaker 1>throws a fit.

186
00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:27.759
<v Speaker 5>As if that's incorrect.

187
00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:30.920
<v Speaker 6>I shouldn't expect my item back exactly the way I

188
00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:31.480
<v Speaker 6>gave it to you.

189
00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:33.919
<v Speaker 5>Why are you making it sound like that's crazy?

190
00:08:34.320 --> 00:08:35.759
<v Speaker 2>Because you're my wife and I should be able to

191
00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:36.240
<v Speaker 2>do what I want.

192
00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:37.720
<v Speaker 5>You have to complain about me?

193
00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:40.679
<v Speaker 3>Rub out the people that borrow stuff, and then you

194
00:08:40.720 --> 00:08:43.679
<v Speaker 3>have to get resort to asking for your own thing back.

195
00:08:44.279 --> 00:08:45.720
<v Speaker 2>I've got the set me off.

196
00:08:45.879 --> 00:08:48.799
<v Speaker 1>Oh well, I've got the ultimate story about that. So

197
00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:53.480
<v Speaker 1>my neighbor when we lived in Valente, my neighbor, I'm

198
00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:54.120
<v Speaker 1>calling out.

199
00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:57.159
<v Speaker 2>His name's Darryl. Daryl borrowed my chainsaw.

200
00:08:57.440 --> 00:09:00.240
<v Speaker 6>Okay, let's preface this by saying, Darryl is it's a

201
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:01.440
<v Speaker 6>perfect candidate to live.

202
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:01.840
<v Speaker 5>In a cult.

203
00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:05.519
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, like what's mine is yours, and what yours is mine.

204
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.559
<v Speaker 1>It's like community property is. And so I let him

205
00:09:09.559 --> 00:09:13.200
<v Speaker 1>borrow my chainsaw. And you know, six eight weeks go

206
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:15.879
<v Speaker 1>by and I see Darrel. I go, hey, Darryl, can

207
00:09:15.840 --> 00:09:22.720
<v Speaker 1>I get my chainsaw back? He goes why, And I

208
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:26.039
<v Speaker 1>go why, Well, I mean cause it's it's my chainsaw.

209
00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:28.120
<v Speaker 1>He goes, what do you have a project you're working on?

210
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:31.480
<v Speaker 1>I go no, He goes, well, why do you need

211
00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:31.759
<v Speaker 1>it back?

212
00:09:32.039 --> 00:09:33.919
<v Speaker 5>It's like it's just down at my house.

213
00:09:34.039 --> 00:09:35.480
<v Speaker 2>Because yeah, it's just down at my house.

214
00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:39.000
<v Speaker 1>You can come here. No sense to him. Yeah, He's like,

215
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:40.639
<v Speaker 1>you can just come down and get it whenever you want.

216
00:09:40.960 --> 00:09:43.840
<v Speaker 1>I go, darl you don't understand I bought the chainsaw.

217
00:09:43.960 --> 00:09:47.200
<v Speaker 1>I want it in my garage so I don't have

218
00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:48.200
<v Speaker 1>to come down to your house.

219
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:51.360
<v Speaker 3>This is a sore subject.

220
00:09:51.720 --> 00:09:53.559
<v Speaker 2>Twenty years ago. I'm still mad about it.

221
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:56.600
<v Speaker 5>I just said, here we go the nerve.

222
00:09:57.159 --> 00:09:59.799
<v Speaker 1>To think that I want to want something that belongs

223
00:09:59.799 --> 00:10:01.320
<v Speaker 1>to me under my roof.

224
00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:06.279
<v Speaker 6>But in Darryl's mind, again, perfect candidate for a cult.

225
00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:07.840
<v Speaker 6>He's like, but you know where it is, and it's

226
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:09.559
<v Speaker 6>right there, and you can use it, and I can

227
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:11.879
<v Speaker 6>use it, and fill across the street can use it.

228
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:16.080
<v Speaker 5>And it's over one big happy family. That's literally what

229
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:16.799
<v Speaker 5>his thinking.

230
00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:19.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's how he is. That's the way I should

231
00:10:19.600 --> 00:10:20.399
<v Speaker 2>have known it too.

232
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:26.919
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, let's talk about the closing, the least ending

233
00:10:27.519 --> 00:10:29.519
<v Speaker 1>of the Museum of ice.

234
00:10:29.279 --> 00:10:30.879
<v Speaker 5>Cream in the domain.

235
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:31.759
<v Speaker 2>I can't wait.

236
00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:32.799
<v Speaker 3>A lot of headlines.

237
00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it must be slow news. Have you ever been Nope,

238
00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:37.679
<v Speaker 1>didn't even know we had one.

239
00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:39.200
<v Speaker 3>Didn't know we had one there.

240
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:42.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I've made plans three different.

241
00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:44.279
<v Speaker 6>Times over the last I don't know, four or five

242
00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:47.360
<v Speaker 6>years to go with our daughter, and two at the

243
00:10:47.399 --> 00:10:49.960
<v Speaker 6>times they were sold out, to get sold out. And

244
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:52.480
<v Speaker 6>when I've been in the domain, every time I walked past,

245
00:10:52.519 --> 00:10:54.600
<v Speaker 6>if the line was out the door. So it's a

246
00:10:54.600 --> 00:10:58.000
<v Speaker 6>big deal. And I never actually made it inside.

247
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:02.279
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So I guess I don't knowunderstand why is is

248
00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Austin a hotspot for ice cream?

249
00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:06.679
<v Speaker 2>I know Amy's is a big deal.

250
00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:10.200
<v Speaker 6>Amy's has something in their bluebell a bunch of local

251
00:11:10.279 --> 00:11:13.720
<v Speaker 6>ice creamries. It's like it's just like a mysterious ice

252
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:19.759
<v Speaker 6>cream that's from Bluebelt. It's just a tip of the

253
00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:21.879
<v Speaker 6>hat to how much everybody loves ice cream, and the

254
00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:24.840
<v Speaker 6>kids go nuts. There's like a huge sprinkle pool, you

255
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:25.759
<v Speaker 6>know how you have a ballpit?

256
00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:28.200
<v Speaker 3>Do they probably? I can't remember doing this as a

257
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:29.840
<v Speaker 3>kid and thinking it was cool. It was like making

258
00:11:29.879 --> 00:11:32.720
<v Speaker 3>ice cream from scratch with ice and solid and.

259
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:36.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, maybe something like that.

260
00:11:36.120 --> 00:11:37.759
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if kids today would do that, I'd

261
00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:39.200
<v Speaker 3>be like, they.

262
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:40.360
<v Speaker 2>Would go trust me.

263
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:43.360
<v Speaker 6>We made it all the time at my grandparents ranch.

264
00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:46.600
<v Speaker 6>And my grandfather would refuse to have an electric ice

265
00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:50.759
<v Speaker 6>cream maker. Yeah, take cranking it or else. He wouldn't

266
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:52.399
<v Speaker 6>eat it. He's like, no, if we're doing it, we're

267
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:53.399
<v Speaker 6>doing it the right way.

268
00:11:53.519 --> 00:11:56.639
<v Speaker 3>It was better that way, though. The vanilla would come

269
00:11:56.639 --> 00:11:59.080
<v Speaker 3>out more like Amy's Mexican vanilla.

270
00:11:59.360 --> 00:12:02.320
<v Speaker 5>Oh, had some strawberries on it. That's the best combo.

271
00:12:02.759 --> 00:12:04.720
<v Speaker 2>We had rock salt to it. What did that do?

272
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:07.440
<v Speaker 5>Something about helping it freeze or something.

273
00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:09.919
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it helps it get to a cooler temperature.

274
00:12:10.279 --> 00:12:12.799
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's not in the ice cream. It's on the outside.

275
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:15.240
<v Speaker 3>Right, you had to pour the rock salt on there

276
00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:18.320
<v Speaker 3>and elsa. Maybe it's the opposite. I don't know. It

277
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:19.960
<v Speaker 3>does something to the texture of it.

278
00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:22.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't Yeah, but the.

279
00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:27.399
<v Speaker 3>Thing is, yeah, there's this big public outcry that it's closing.

280
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:31.360
<v Speaker 3>None of us have been right. This is so awesten

281
00:12:32.960 --> 00:12:36.159
<v Speaker 3>to never go do something and then all complain when

282
00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:36.759
<v Speaker 3>it goes away.

283
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:38.320
<v Speaker 5>Be sad.

284
00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:42.519
<v Speaker 3>We always do this. Ye, like when Shady Grove closed

285
00:12:42.720 --> 00:12:44.600
<v Speaker 3>and people were all crying about it. I go, when's

286
00:12:44.600 --> 00:12:45.679
<v Speaker 3>the last time you went.

287
00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:48.399
<v Speaker 5>To it.

288
00:12:48.519 --> 00:12:50.399
<v Speaker 6>It's hard to get to it, hard to park, but

289
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:53.200
<v Speaker 6>I've had comfort knowing it was there, right.

290
00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:55.879
<v Speaker 3>Thread Gills is gone. You know Janis Joplin used to

291
00:12:55.919 --> 00:12:58.080
<v Speaker 3>play there. I go, that's probably the last time you went?

292
00:13:00.759 --> 00:13:01.320
<v Speaker 2>You know what I mean?

293
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:03.720
<v Speaker 3>You used to say this when when the jazz station

294
00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:07.279
<v Speaker 3>would go away and there'd be there'd be this public outcry,

295
00:13:07.399 --> 00:13:09.080
<v Speaker 3>and go did just support it?

296
00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:11.240
<v Speaker 2>Right, did you listen to No?

297
00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:12.600
<v Speaker 4>Right?

298
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:17.679
<v Speaker 5>It was there, right, just like the comfort of knowing

299
00:13:17.759 --> 00:13:18.639
<v Speaker 5>that's where it was.

300
00:13:19.120 --> 00:13:21.519
<v Speaker 1>It's weird how we get worked up about things that

301
00:13:21.559 --> 00:13:24.440
<v Speaker 1>we don't support and they go away, and then we

302
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:26.240
<v Speaker 1>get mad that they go away.

303
00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:28.799
<v Speaker 6>But then there's a few things that people that the

304
00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:30.879
<v Speaker 6>moment that they hear any kind of a whisper that

305
00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:33.000
<v Speaker 6>it might go away, people freak out and like chain

306
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:35.360
<v Speaker 6>themselves to trees like Peter Pan Golf.

307
00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:39.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they keep getting extensions. Remember when El Patio was

308
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:42.039
<v Speaker 3>going to close and then people stepped in and bought it.

309
00:13:42.600 --> 00:13:45.240
<v Speaker 3>That was people were ready to chain themselves to that place.

310
00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:48.159
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yeah, Sandy was going to chain himself to Dirty Martins.

311
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:50.240
<v Speaker 3>But again, I've never been to El Patio.

312
00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:53.039
<v Speaker 5>Oh it's really so long since I've been.

313
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:56.559
<v Speaker 3>Never been, and I haven't been to Dirty Martins. And

314
00:13:57.200 --> 00:13:59.120
<v Speaker 3>man definitely pre Covid I.

315
00:13:59.120 --> 00:14:00.559
<v Speaker 2>Go for about the last three years.

316
00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:03.159
<v Speaker 1>I go about once a month because I have to

317
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:05.799
<v Speaker 1>go downtown for something and it's like I don't know

318
00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:08.279
<v Speaker 1>ten blocks away, so I always duck in.

319
00:14:08.240 --> 00:14:09.399
<v Speaker 2>There and have a burger.

320
00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:12.639
<v Speaker 3>That's one that's a place that people continue to support. Yeah,

321
00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:15.080
<v Speaker 3>in my opinion, right, but you never know who's going

322
00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:17.159
<v Speaker 3>to be in there. I know I took it was

323
00:14:17.200 --> 00:14:20.159
<v Speaker 3>before COVID, so it was probably at least five years ago.

324
00:14:20.919 --> 00:14:24.879
<v Speaker 3>My dad was in town. He lives here now, he's visiting. Said, man,

325
00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:27.960
<v Speaker 3>where can you get a good flat grill burger? Like

326
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:30.759
<v Speaker 3>that's what he grew up on. And you don't see

327
00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:34.279
<v Speaker 3>that as much anymore, flat grill burger. They're more broiled.

328
00:14:34.320 --> 00:14:37.480
<v Speaker 3>And I was like, oh, have you never had dirties? Oh?

329
00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:39.559
<v Speaker 3>So I took him to Dirty Martin's and I said,

330
00:14:40.240 --> 00:14:44.279
<v Speaker 3>I said, just wait, you never know what legendary longhorn

331
00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:50.600
<v Speaker 3>you might see here, somebody legendary. And sure enough we're

332
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:54.399
<v Speaker 3>sitting there, and then Ed Clemens walks around the corner

333
00:14:54.480 --> 00:14:58.279
<v Speaker 3>the radio all the time. Yeah, and he waves and

334
00:14:58.320 --> 00:15:01.960
<v Speaker 3>starts walking over towards us. But with him was Ben Crenshaw.

335
00:15:02.559 --> 00:15:05.120
<v Speaker 3>Oh wow, I thought my dad was going to lose

336
00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:08.440
<v Speaker 3>his He was star struck.

337
00:15:08.799 --> 00:15:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the Masters twice and it's a longhorn too that school.

338
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:16.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so Ed and Ben they probably get together on

339
00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:18.879
<v Speaker 3>the regular. But those guys are college buddies. They go

340
00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:20.679
<v Speaker 3>all the way, they go all the way back to college.

341
00:15:20.679 --> 00:15:23.200
<v Speaker 3>They were I think they were fraternity brothers. Oh wow,

342
00:15:23.320 --> 00:15:26.679
<v Speaker 3>I'm not sure, but that's a classic Dirties moment right there.

343
00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:28.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean I've seen back in the day, I

344
00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:33.200
<v Speaker 1>saw Coach Brown there. Just weird seeing Coach Brown there

345
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:36.000
<v Speaker 1>sitting eating a cheeseburger praying to guy who doesn't recognize

346
00:15:36.000 --> 00:15:38.440
<v Speaker 1>me because of our coach.

347
00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:41.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we did for years.

348
00:15:41.799 --> 00:15:44.399
<v Speaker 1>So for those of you that don't know, Dirty Martin's

349
00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:46.879
<v Speaker 1>is a hamburger joint on the drag what is it,

350
00:15:46.919 --> 00:15:52.320
<v Speaker 1>twenty eighth something like that, and it's been around for

351
00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:54.279
<v Speaker 1>over one hundred years, and there was talks of it

352
00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:58.320
<v Speaker 1>going away because of the light rail proposal for the

353
00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:00.919
<v Speaker 1>that guy people worked out, Yeah, for sure, and they

354
00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:03.240
<v Speaker 1>were going to run the train tracks right through Dirty

355
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:05.919
<v Speaker 1>Martins and they wised up and they re routed it

356
00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:08.879
<v Speaker 1>a different direction. So I can't remember the name of

357
00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:11.840
<v Speaker 1>that organization that was doing that, but they took a

358
00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:15.360
<v Speaker 1>lot of heat when they started talking about Dirty Martin's

359
00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:17.360
<v Speaker 1>closing down. In fact, they bought t shirts that said

360
00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:19.120
<v Speaker 1>save Dirtys and keep Austin Dirty.

361
00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:22.519
<v Speaker 3>The other one that they that Austin Nites are really

362
00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:24.759
<v Speaker 3>clinging onto. So it used to be back in to

363
00:16:24.840 --> 00:16:29.399
<v Speaker 3>save our springs day. It was everything. Anything changing was disaster,

364
00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:32.120
<v Speaker 3>like total disaster.

365
00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Right.

366
00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:35.799
<v Speaker 3>But the other thing that gets Austinites worked up, and

367
00:16:35.840 --> 00:16:37.759
<v Speaker 3>I'll go, well, when's the last time you went there

368
00:16:37.919 --> 00:16:39.240
<v Speaker 3>is the Muni golf Course.

369
00:16:39.559 --> 00:16:41.399
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, oh yeah.

370
00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:44.960
<v Speaker 3>I go tell what, find me someone who's played there

371
00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:51.279
<v Speaker 3>under over the age of fifteen. Let's start with that.

372
00:16:51.679 --> 00:16:52.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're right,
