Speaker 2: is JB.
Speaker 3: Hello, trust us here, Hi everybody.
Speaker 1: Honestly, guys, I really do feel like we could say
Speaker 1: anything we wanted to say right now, just the most
Speaker 1: ridiculous thing in the world, and no one.
Speaker 2: We wouldn't get in any.
Speaker 1: Trouble because I don't think there's anyone listening. Martin Luther
Speaker 1: King day. The weather being the way that it is,
Speaker 1: kids aren't in school, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that way, people are sleeping.
Speaker 1: I did get a text message I want to share
Speaker 1: with you guys at You can text us anytime at
Speaker 1: seven three seven threes are a one to ninety six hundred.
Speaker 1: This is from Andrea. She said good morning to you
Speaker 1: all and a very special shout out to JB. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna miss listening to you all on the.
Speaker 2: Way to work.
Speaker 1: This is my last day. I need to leave for
Speaker 1: a medical procedure. Next week we'll but we'll be hoping
Speaker 1: to hear you while at home. You guys are the
Speaker 1: only ones that make me laugh and look forward to

Speaker 1: in on Friday, and keep warm. So Andrew, I hope
Speaker 1: everything goes okay for you with whatever your medical procedure is.
Speaker 1: And as a reminder, you can listen at home. You
Speaker 1: can use your smart device if you want, you can
Speaker 1: use your phone.
Speaker 4: I couldn't tell if she's leaving for a procedure or
Speaker 4: has a p it's just gonna be out of commission.
Speaker 1: It sounds like she listens to us on the way
Speaker 1: to work every day.
Speaker 4: Oh and her routines off well anyhow, Yeah, that's yeah,
Speaker 4: whatever it is. If it's throwing off your routine, that's
Speaker 4: serious and we wish you the best. We're here for you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but listen at home. Too.
Speaker 1: You can use your do you guys know anyone that
Speaker 1: has a radio radio in their house?
Speaker 3: No, like the bed.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's funny.
Speaker 5: You mentioned that.
Speaker 4: I was at my daughter's and she has an old
Speaker 4: school turntable from the seventies and old school seventies speakers,
Speaker 4: and then I turn on this receiver and I go
Speaker 4: just the tuner work.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I was over there doing helping with some stuff in
Speaker 4: her apartment and I was like, oh, just the tuner
Speaker 4: and just scrolling through stations.
Speaker 5: So, yeah, she has old school radio.
Speaker 1: I probably Reddit thread that's just radio, and they're still
Speaker 1: This is really bizarre to me because it used to
Speaker 1: be a lot of fun. If you're a radio dork
Speaker 1: like JBN, and you were driving around somewhere, normally in
Speaker 1: the middle of the night, in the middle of nowhere,
Speaker 1: you would do what it's called d xing, where you
Speaker 1: would just go across the dial to see how many
Speaker 1: different radio stations and listen to them to see how
Speaker 1: far away they were, you know what I mean, Like
Speaker 1: you could pick up stations in the Midwest, you could
Speaker 1: pick up stations at Mexico or Mexico right, you know,
Speaker 1: even here in Austin I've picked up a station.
Speaker 2: Out of Omaha in the middle of the night.
Speaker 5: Wow.
Speaker 1: But these there's this whole Reddit thread of what's the
Speaker 1: furthest radio station away you've ever heard? And I'm like,
Speaker 1: it's so irrelevant.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 6: I know it's so irrelevant because you can just listen
Speaker 6: online to anything that you want to listen to, but
Speaker 6: it's still it's still kind of exciting when you're in
Speaker 6: the car.
Speaker 4: I've talked to my dad about that, because, like he
Speaker 4: grew up in that era where you could listen to
Speaker 4: Wolfman Jack mm hmm oh yeah and get all this underground,
Speaker 4: underground music like it. It wasn't the Lawrence Wolke Show.
Speaker 4: It was rock and roll and all this stuff. And
Speaker 4: I think, and I may have this all wrong, but
Speaker 4: they were broadcasting out of Tijuana, yes, where they could
Speaker 4: do three hundred thousand way at five hundred thousand. Whatever
Speaker 4: it was. That doesn't mean anything to the listener. The
Speaker 4: point is it could go across the country, especially in
Speaker 4: the evening in the night when there isn't as much
Speaker 4: noise pollution or whatever.
Speaker 5: And again I may have a lot of this wrong,
Speaker 5: but that's why they would stay up late.
Speaker 4: Listening to like Wolfman Jack and rock and roll and
Speaker 4: blues music and early R and B and everything and
Speaker 4: just on their car stereo, like my dad tells me
Speaker 4: stories of parking on a hilltop in Kansas where there
Speaker 4: are not many hilltops, just to listen to the radio
Speaker 4: and you just go, wow, that's that's pretty cool. And
Speaker 4: that's one generation ago one from us.
Speaker 1: I know. And next generation is going to have holograms
Speaker 1: of just jockey's in the car with them.
Speaker 4: Right, eh, Woffman Jack would like probably whiskey breath and
Speaker 4: all right.
Speaker 1: Next to you, Hey, Coming up on today's show, we
Speaker 1: do have some weather that's coming in and Trisia is
Speaker 1: just so excited, miserable, cold, so happy that's coming our
Speaker 1: way to we'll talk about that, and coming up next,
Speaker 1: Trisia's got the story we love.
Speaker 2: What do you have?
Speaker 7: All Right, we have to talk about fire Aid. Fire
Speaker 7: Aid has been set up, the lineup has been announced.
Speaker 7: It is a lot of famous people in bands, so
Speaker 7: we're going to talk about who's going to be there
Speaker 7: when it is and how you can help.
Speaker 1: All right, stay with us the story we love Coming
Speaker 1: up next on Austin's eighty station, What O three point one?
Speaker 1: We've got a chance for you to one of a
Speaker 1: thousand bucks. Later on this morning, be listing at nine o'clock.
Speaker 1: It's the JB and Sandy Hour. We'll do it again
Speaker 1: tomorrow from seven until eight. Will be here for it
Speaker 1: this story.
Speaker 7: The lineup for the Fire Aid concert was announced and
Speaker 7: has huge, huge I'm sorry you had a little blip
Speaker 7: on my computer. Has huge names lined up for it.
Speaker 7: Here's some of the acts taking the stage. Billy Eilish
Speaker 7: along with your brother, Phineas, Gracie Abrams, Green Day, Gwen Stefani,
Speaker 7: Jelly Roll is going to be there, Joni Mitchell, Katie Perry,
Speaker 7: Lady Gaga, Pink Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rod Stewart, Stevie
Speaker 7: Nicks is going to make an appearance. Also, Dave Matthews
Speaker 7: and John Mayer are going to perform together for the
Speaker 7: first time. Another act was announced and some people are
Speaker 7: like that might have been a bit of a big,
Speaker 7: a bit of a mistake. Earthwind and Fire is going
Speaker 7: to take the stage. Other special guests will be announced
Speaker 7: in the lead up to the show. They're still adding
Speaker 7: to the lineup. The show is scheduled for January thirtieth
Speaker 7: at the Into it Dome and the Forum also January
Speaker 7: twenty fourth, if you want to get in on donating
Speaker 7: as well. There were also a live telethon streaming on
Speaker 7: multiple YouTube and Twitch channels the week before the concert.
Speaker 1: It's also going to air on at least one iHeart
Speaker 1: station in every single market across the country. And I
Speaker 1: don't have this confirm, but just based on the lineup,
Speaker 1: I'm guessing that will be on our sister station ninety
Speaker 1: six to seven Kiss FM, So.
Speaker 2: I'm guessing where that will air.
Speaker 1: It's interesting, does it say I understand fire relief and stuff,
Speaker 1: but where's the money going?
Speaker 2: Do we know that?
Speaker 7: No, that information was not released in this update, but
Speaker 7: I'm sure if they're having a telethon on YouTube and
Speaker 7: Twitch channels, all of the information about where it's going
Speaker 7: to go, how to donate, obviously, is going to be
Speaker 7: very very obvious to find out to see for them
Speaker 7: to tell you how the money is being used, which
Speaker 7: I imagine a lot of people want to know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, boy that musicians and performers are sure
Speaker 1: asked a lot to donate a lot of their term
Speaker 1: and talent to things like this, and when this one
Speaker 1: really kind of hits home for them because a lot
Speaker 1: of those people live in that area, you know, they
Speaker 1: are most of the Palisades and close.
Speaker 5: To the successful ones.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a that's a tricky thing about this, Like, yeah,
Speaker 4: where does the money go to? Your point, Tricia, like
Speaker 4: you want to.
Speaker 5: Help it rebuild.
Speaker 4: Like I was watching on CNN this restaurant tour, third generation,
Speaker 4: this young woman, her parents, her grandparents started it.
Speaker 5: It's like, I want that money to go to that.
Speaker 4: I would like to think in Malibu, Pacific Palisades, the
Speaker 4: residents are okay financially in theory, right, I know it's
Speaker 4: still a devastating blow, but you know I want to
Speaker 4: I want to see the local infrastructure get rebuilt.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 4: How do I mean there's if there's not a grocer
Speaker 4: down the street, a convenience.
Speaker 7: Store, schools, grocery stores, it's all gone.
Speaker 4: Yeah, all the essentials, not just the residents. That's what's
Speaker 4: so hard to get your brain around this.
Speaker 5: It's so devastating.
Speaker 2: I would have I imagine, you're right.
Speaker 1: I bet that that's where the money is going is
Speaker 1: to those things, the infrastructure of the mom and the pops,
Speaker 1: the businesses that have been around there for.
Speaker 2: A long time.
Speaker 1: A lot of those homes I read yesterday, quite a
Speaker 1: few of those homes are homes that are being inhabited
Speaker 1: by people that inherited those homes, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: They're generational though that area, and they're they're you know,
Speaker 1: who ever bought the house probably bought it in nineteen
Speaker 1: fifty for forty thousand dollars. Yeah, I'm serious. And now,
Speaker 1: but think about it, it's not. Maybe that's what it's
Speaker 1: worth now right right.
Speaker 3: After it burned down.
Speaker 4: The dirt's still worth quite a bit, having like a
Speaker 4: Pacific view and all that stuff. But yeah, compared to
Speaker 4: what it was when the genera the home on it.
Speaker 4: How do we get in on that generational well thing?
Speaker 7: Right?
Speaker 3: How do we miss that?
Speaker 2: Geez Oh yep, that's the mystery question.
Speaker 1: That's hey, I'll tell you he's got generational wealth? Is
Speaker 1: coach Sarkisian with his new contract?
Speaker 7: Did you say, yeah, yeah, they are not playing around
Speaker 7: you know, the NFL was sniffing around him.
Speaker 3: He ignored him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they they reported him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, not to mention other college programs like it's big
Speaker 4: business now in nil world and all this, like it's
Speaker 4: big business.
Speaker 1: I think he got seven more years and ten million
Speaker 1: dollars a year or something like that.
Speaker 7: Seven a four year extension and then nearly doubled his
Speaker 7: base pay for staying, and he gets some huge bonus
Speaker 7: for playing in the college playoffs semifinals. So he's around
Speaker 7: until like the what twenty thirty one?
Speaker 2: Wow? Wow? Yeah, good for him.
Speaker 3: I know it's great, good for him.
Speaker 4: I think in this there's a lot of positives and
Speaker 4: negatives of this nil transfer portal era, but this is
Speaker 4: one of the ones that I think is good for
Speaker 4: a college, for a coach, this this is a pinnacle
Speaker 4: career thing.
Speaker 5: You don't have to go to the NFL.
Speaker 4: I sort of equate it to there was a time
Speaker 4: when when you made it to film, you wouldn't do TV.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 4: Now TV is big business and Hollywood has figured that out.
Speaker 4: I think that something similar is happening in football, where
Speaker 4: oh my god, college like it's it's equally as exciting,
Speaker 4: if not more exciting. Yeah, and the pay is good
Speaker 4: and you don't have to be in the NFL.
Speaker 5: It's it's I don't know, this could be good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot of coaches that are not built
Speaker 1: for football, like it is, right, now though, with the
Speaker 1: nil the transfer portal and all that, the old school
Speaker 1: guys like they don't want to do it.
Speaker 2: That's why Nick Saben retired. You know. It's probably what
Speaker 2: Mac Brown's thrill death. He's not coaching right now.
Speaker 5: It's also over seventy.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's true. Run, Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: And congratulations coach sark Well deserved. It's the JAB and
Speaker 1: Sandy hour more coming up on Austin's eighty station one
Speaker 1: oh three point one. Boy, I'm telling you you would
Speaker 1: think today is Christmas Eve for Triciaus. She's just so
Speaker 1: damn excited about this cold weather that has made its
Speaker 1: way into Austin.
Speaker 2: Yep, and I don't like it.
Speaker 1: A cold weather advisory is in effect until noon on
Speaker 1: Wednesday due to dangerously cold air and wind chill temperatures.
Speaker 1: Now I understand that it may start snowing later on
Speaker 1: this afternoon. They're saying maybe around six o'clock. A few
Speaker 1: flurries are possible during the day, but tonight that we
Speaker 1: might actually get some snow showers that could cover the ground, like.
Speaker 7: Maybe a two an inch of snow, potentially sandy kind and.
Speaker 1: Like Georgetown an inch and then kind of as you
Speaker 1: go east towards bass Drop gettings lagrange one to two
Speaker 1: inches and then Brian two to three inches of snow.
Speaker 1: And Tricia, it just loves this. Jabi and I you
Speaker 1: are are on the on the same page. I hate it.
Speaker 1: I hate hate it, hate it, hate it. Yeah, so okay,
Speaker 1: little history here. Tricia born and raised.
Speaker 4: Sauce tonight, So snow is super exciting. I've been I've
Speaker 4: been in Austin since I was twelve years old, so
Speaker 4: back to nineteen eighty I had so I had some
Speaker 4: experience in the in the Midwest right with snow and
Speaker 4: of true winter, and Sandy has some childhood Nebraska.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's you hate it. I hate it. I just
Speaker 5: I can't eat.
Speaker 4: I don't even have the words of how much I
Speaker 4: hate it. And I get it if you're from here
Speaker 4: and you don't ever get to experience that, it's it's
Speaker 4: kind of a nice little treat throwing up with it.
Speaker 5: You're just like, here's.
Speaker 2: What Trician does it. Here's what she doesn't understand.
Speaker 1: I mean, like you said, I lived in Nebraska, but
Speaker 1: I also lived in the mother of all winter environments
Speaker 1: in Syracuse, New York.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 5: I forgot about that in your radio career. You did it,
Speaker 5: what two or three years? There?
Speaker 1: Just over a year, okay, Syracuse one winter that it
Speaker 1: felt like a decade. It did, and there were on
Speaker 1: two different occasions, I got to work at the radio
Speaker 1: station on the back of a snowmobile.
Speaker 2: That's how much. They don't measure it in inches there,
Speaker 2: they measure.
Speaker 5: It in feet of snow.
Speaker 2: Here's what Tricia.
Speaker 1: Doesn't understand about. She would like to have a full winter,
Speaker 1: three months of winter. What she doesn't understand is how
Speaker 1: sloppy the snow gets. That it gets lush slush and
Speaker 1: you got all over your house. You track it in
Speaker 1: your house. It's you got to bundle up when you
Speaker 1: go outside. You got to scrape your windshields.
Speaker 2: You've got to do. You got a shovel snow.
Speaker 1: Just going to the mailbox is a pain in the ass.
Speaker 5: My biggest thing I hate the most.
Speaker 4: And you won't to understand this unless you've dealt with
Speaker 4: a real wink wet mittens, the grossest texture, smell, every
Speaker 4: just wet legs.
Speaker 7: Just oh, I'm not saying that I want it to
Speaker 7: be Syracuse, New York type winters down here living in
Speaker 7: Texas your entire life. If there is the slightest hint
Speaker 7: that there could be snow or even just flurries. Everybody
Speaker 7: was like I remember as a little kid, my mom
Speaker 7: and my grandparents being like, it's gonna snow. It was
Speaker 7: always presented to me as this is so exciting. So
Speaker 7: it's ingrained in me that it's a huge deal.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 5: You probably also associated with school closure.
Speaker 7: Yes, not having to go to school. Is there anything
Speaker 7: greater for a kid than school getting canceled?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's all about the food.
Speaker 3: And it's about the snacks. That's exactly right.
Speaker 7: It's y'all, don't like it all the cold and being
Speaker 7: inside in your house and the cozy and the fire
Speaker 7: and hot chocolate and no school and let's make brownies.
Speaker 4: Or I have central ac and heat. I don't know
Speaker 4: if you've heard of it.
Speaker 3: It's a whole vibe.
Speaker 5: You can control a sperior year round to whatever you desire.
Speaker 2: It's the same temperature inside all year long.
Speaker 7: It's just something different. I mean, my god, Texas has
Speaker 7: gotten so hot. I mean the summers that we've had lately.
Speaker 7: When you walk out into like a parking lot, if
Speaker 7: it like you can smell the tires melting in the
Speaker 7: parking lot, on the cars.
Speaker 3: It's so hot.
Speaker 7: This is something different. It's a change of scenery. It's
Speaker 7: a new way to act.
Speaker 3: And I love it. I love it.
Speaker 2: It's a new way to act.
Speaker 3: Yes, and it's different close. It's not flip flops for
Speaker 3: a change.
Speaker 2: You wouldn't last very long in a real winter, though
Speaker 2: I would.
Speaker 7: Again, I'm not saying I want Syracuse to come down
Speaker 7: here every winter, but come on, let us have the
Speaker 7: snow days.
Speaker 2: Come on. I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1: If school doesn't get canceled tomorrow, our daughter is going
Speaker 1: to lose her mind.
Speaker 7: She's already gone down the path of what she's doing
Speaker 7: on Tuesday, staying home, and what she's baking, and what
Speaker 7: movies we're gonna watch.
Speaker 3: If they don't cancel it, she's gonna lose it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't need it, and i'd rather I'm like you, JB.
Speaker 1: I'd rather it be one hundred and.
Speaker 4: Five than I get why all these Cogers move to Florida. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I'm starting to work on my wife about a Florida life,
Speaker 4: like I have to leave from you know, run from
Speaker 4: some hurricanes.
Speaker 5: But no, I don't know.
Speaker 2: This one wants to move somewhere where there's four seasons.
Speaker 3: Yes I do.
Speaker 4: Okay, you ever hear about anyone retiring and moving to
Speaker 4: New England or the Midwest.
Speaker 3: No, No, we're starting retired.
Speaker 2: Just our neighbor.
Speaker 3: They had vacation houses there.
Speaker 4: They retire Southern California, Arizona.
Speaker 5: To Mexico. Too much sun Florida.
Speaker 4: There's a reason all those people cannot be wrong.
Speaker 5: They just the life of it.
Speaker 1: But you know what's so funny and I can't wrap
Speaker 1: my brain around it. But our neighbor Chip and Share
Speaker 1: and they retired. They moved to northern Wisconsin.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I know, and I'm jealous every time I get
Speaker 7: just get a weather report from them. I want I
Speaker 7: want it to be really cold and build snowman's. I
Speaker 7: want there to be a leaf peep in time in
Speaker 7: the autumn.
Speaker 2: Probably apples in the fall.
Speaker 7: I might want to down on Christmas tree, but then
Speaker 7: also pick apples in the orchard. Taylor swift sweaters and
Speaker 7: smoke a pipe.
Speaker 2: Have an outdoor fire pit that you can actually using.
Speaker 7: Right, Yes, I want all those things that you see
Speaker 7: on postcard.
Speaker 3: That's what I want.
Speaker 1: No, thank you, I'm just looking at this this. So
Speaker 1: the weather is, it's supposed to come in tonight, so hopefully,
Speaker 1: I don't know, mostly everybody will be home by the
Speaker 1: time it starts light freezing rain snows.
Speaker 4: I can tell Trisha one thing that she's never had happened.
Speaker 4: It would change her mind entirely. And Sandy probably.
Speaker 5: Knows is getting your tongue stuck to a sled? Why
Speaker 5: are you looking at?
Speaker 3: Why are you looking a sled?
Speaker 1: I'll tell you another thing you don't miss it slipping
Speaker 1: and falling and smashing your tail bond.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not fun a lot.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so crumpy about the great weather God. Just for
Speaker 3: a little while, just enjoy it a little bit.
Speaker 2: We're Texas guys. We're not We're not like you you
Speaker 2: were born.
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, it's the Jam and Sandy how Er.
