Air Conditioning, Baby Owls & A Wild Austin Ode
“Is adding air conditioning to a 150-year-old Texas dance hall preserving history… or changing it forever?”
The crew kicks things off with big news about Gruene Hall, the oldest continually operating dance hall in Texas, finally getting air conditioning. Tricia breaks it down with love for tradition and excitement for comfort, while JB and Sandy debate whether sweating through a night of dancing is a rite of passage or just unnecessary suffering. One memorable line says it all: “You know when you go to Gruene Hall, you’re gonna dance, drink beer… and sweat your butt off.” Until now. 😅
Then, things turn irresistibly wholesome with an update on Athena the owl, Austin’s beloved Wildflower Center resident. One owlet has officially hatched, and the anticipation for the second has the entire city watching. Sandy sums it up perfectly: “She’s just sitting there… and it’s mesmerizing.” 🦉💛
As Kite Festival weekend approaches, Sandy takes on the ultimate challenge: writing and performing an Ode to the Kite Festival in under three minutes. The result is clever, chaotic, and laugh-out-loud funny, featuring lines about hipsters, big dreams, and dads regretting life choices under a giant kite. 🎏😂 JB’s live commentary might steal the show.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm kind of surprised that they're doing this, but it's
a renovation that everybody wants. Trisia'll tell you about a
dance hall in Texas that's making a big renovation coming
up next. Good morning, it's the JB and Sandy Show.
My name is Sandy. This is JB.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Hey, good morning.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Trisha's here too. Hi, everybody, thanks for being with us.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
It's our We're into our second week here after a
eleven year hiatus at a different radio station. For everyone
that has found us, thanks for listening. We appreciate it.
Very active on social media, so that's great too, So
we appreciate it. And if you're going to the George
Straight Show tonight, have fun.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
It's gonna be I mean, it's.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Just a George Straight. When you go see him live,
he sounds exactly like he does when you listen to
him on the radio.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
I bet it's just the most polished musicians in his band.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Oh yeah, right, and I bet they've been with him
forever the Ace in the Hole end. Absolutely, I don't know,
it's gonna be a good show. I'm not going tonight.
You're not going, are you?
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Jimmy? No? No, Tricia tayl everybody about the good news.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
All right, the state's oldest can take annually operating dance hall.
I love that about this dance hall. It's been around
in Texas for one hundred and fifty years. Green Hall.
People have been going for generations. You know that when
you go to Green Hall, you're gonna dance and dance
and dance. You're probably gonna drink a lot of beer,
and you're also gonna sweat your butt off because up
until this coming summer they've had no AC. Their new
(01:20):
renovation is acy.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I've been there, but it must have been a cooler
time of year. I didn't know that was a thing.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
I mean also when you're dancing, even if it's kind
of cold outside, if you're.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Dancing, you get kind of hot.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
But I've only, I guess ever been in the summer,
and man, you just are prepared to sweat because they
just all they do is prop open their windows. You know,
it's one hundred and fifty years old. So the fact
that they've chosen to go ahead and like bring it
into the future a little bit into this modern day
with AC, I think that's huge and I think a
lot more people are going to go and dance.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
What sassification of America.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
You know what's funny. It makes me think about when
my daughter was going to Camp Longhorn. They don't have
air cond in those cabins, and she's there in the
heat of the summer and she would say, you adjust
to it.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Still a little hot at night. But like we're spoiling
ourselves with this air conditioning thing.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Okay, and Sandy, all right, stick her out still to come.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
We got an ode for you in just a little bit.
I don't know what I'm going to write it about
because I haven't been inspired yet.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
So we got the Ode of the Day coming up.
A ninety eight to one cavet.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Big news from the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Research Center.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
The owllet has hatched, the first one, the first one.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
If you're not following this story, there's an owl that
comes back to Austin every single year.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Right, yep.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
Her name is Athena, right.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
And she takes up residence.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
At the Wildflower Center, at the Wildflower Center in the
same spot, and they set up a camera that you
can watch her twenty four to seven. They see you
can see that she's laiter eggs. You can see her
keeping her eggs warm. You can see her mate, who,
by the way, does not have a name. It's just
a great horned owl comes and brings her dead mice
and stuff to eat all the time.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
It's a smart owl.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Keep her fetch, yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Keep her happy. I'm watching Athena right now on the
live stream on YouTube. That's pretty cool.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Yeah, it's very cool.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Why and she's not doing anything, She's just sitting on
her edge, s mesmerizing.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Yes. And so one of them was born this week.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
One of them hatch this week.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
We're waiting on the second one, and they have kind
of a breakdown of like what happens over the next
couple of weeks. For the first couple of weeks, obviously,
they're so small they have to be protected and kept warm.
At three to four weeks out, they're going to be
a little bit bigger. Their feathers are going to start
coming out. They're going to be able to start kind
of eating and feeding themselves pretty quickly. I don't know,
(03:45):
but I think that now that we've got the first one,
everyone just wants to see it, and everybody's keep an
eye on the second one waiting for it to hatch
as well.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Now I'm looking at the timeline they like they have
a twenty twenty six timeline. March fourth, Athena arrived the fifth,
she later first egg, on the ninth, she later second egg.
But I scroll down it goes all the way back
to twenty twelve. These are all Athena.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
These are all Athena as far as I know.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
No, I don't know. She sure, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
I mean, do they put a band on her or
something to know that that's Athena when she comes back.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Athena nested for the first time in twenty twelve.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
How long does an owl live?
Speaker 1 (04:24):
A long time? I think also lived for a long time. Well,
she's a she's a local now or snowbird maybe, I
don't know, but she's here for what is that four fourteen.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Years she's been coming back. They can live, They can
live over twenty years, huh.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
And one of them has been born.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
So now the big thing is everybody's going to want
to name the baby.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
Oh yeah, A little rude that the dad doesn't get
a name, don't y'all A little bit?
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Yeah, But I mean it's just like humans when the
baby's born. The dad isn't that no longer bored?
Speaker 2 (04:51):
He just fetches food.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
That's exactly who right ninety eight one Kvette, It's the
JB and Sandy Show. Thanks for being here Kite Festival
this weekend. But I hope the weather weather cooperates.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Have you looked at the ten day forecast.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
I haven't.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Yes, there's storms or scattered thunderstorms for the next ten
days rain. If I could see beyond that, it might
be even more.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
But like, we're not going inches of rain for the weekend.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
I mean, I think so.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
This town freaks out when the first rain drop falls.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
I know, yeah, to a TV, we can always use
the rain stuck up on water and toilet paper.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I'm ready to write an ode, but I need to
be inspired. I know our listeners have been hitting you
up DM and you on social with some topics.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Let me throw a few of these out at you.
And if you've not heard him, do the od of
the day. I threw out these suggestions from you the listener.
Sandy has one song to write, the entire pond.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Short song too. I'm looking at it as a speed poet,
though it's gonna be tough.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
A couple of suggestions that came in ode to I
thirty five.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Isn't that really?
Speaker 2 (06:02):
You never use thirty rarely if I have to exhausting
I live right, but I do all the time.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
It's not cool?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Uh ode to Captain.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
K Maybe that's a maybe. It kind of hit me
a little bit. Do you have another one?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
And another suggestion that came in ode to kites and
or the kite fest.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Oh, I like that. I think O to the kite Festival.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
That's the happiest place in Austin on the day of
the kite Festival is at Zilker Park. Yeah, I like that.
I will write the ode to the kite Festival. You'll
stick around. I told you it's a short one song
is two minutes and forty nine seconds. I got to
get the writing stick around. I'll perform it. Coming up
next it's The JB and Sandy Show ninety eight one KVAC.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
Good morning dude. That was stressful.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
That was a short, Yeah song, one song to write
an entire poem.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Yeah, two minutes and forty nine seconds. Dustin Lynch Mackenzie
Porter not thought not very long, but I did do it.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Of course, of course you did, You're professional.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
I was inspired by a listener's suggestion to write an
ode to the Kite Festival, which is this weekend in
Zilker Park, and I will now perform said o, The.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Ode to the Kite Festival.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Bye Sama, Oh Hell. The Austin Kite Fest, brought to
you by ABC Home Services. That glorious day where wind
meets ego and dreams fly away.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Gotta watch that ego.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Thousands of hipsters in ironic.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Teas unleashing their kites like they're curing disease. Creet big
finish had to be short because I only had two
minutes forty nine seconds to do it.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Still impressive.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
There's the blue diamond, red white and blue being flown
by a dad.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Who's regretting it too. It's hard.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
I think JB's Peanut Gallery comments are better than the
voice one kvet George Strait tonight at the Moody Center,
Gary Allen at the Round Rock Amphitheater on Friday Night,
and Tricia is going to take a trip down memory Lane.
And I can't believe that your friends Brittany and Jennifer
who we called Jack, aren't coming into town. Brittany lives
(08:58):
in Weatherford, and I only knows where Jennifer lives. I
mean she every year it's a different address with you.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
She goes by Jack.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
JK and uh, you call and told him that you're
going to the show.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
I sent him a text and I was like, just
so y'all know.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
JB, Sandy and I were introducing Gary Allen at his
concert on Friday night and there were instantly my phone
blew up all cats, no way, oh.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
My god, freaking out.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
They might be two of the biggest Gary Allen fans
I have ever met. And back in the day when
three of us would run around, his songs were like
the background of all of our adventures?
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Were you?
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Was it the background of your adventure when you when
you rode with that biker gang Tehana?
Speaker 4 (09:41):
No, that that was some Tehana music on that ride,
on that adventure.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
We went to all him an adventures. I like to
sort of Dora the Explore.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
Now on the lake in the car, at.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
The gangs that you that you joined.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
We went to a wedding brunch, a bridal brunch in
San Angelo, and after the brunch was over, we ended
up at this Tejano biker bar. The three girls, me,
Jack and Brittany and ended up making friends with everybody
in the bar, and then they took us out on
rides around sananchelocycles.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
They were the nicest people. Didn't you have to ask
the guys to pull over?
Speaker 4 (10:21):
Yeah, because we had to go to the bathroom and
they all turned around at one point like they were
standing by their motorcycles and all we could see with
their backs because we were in over lacking the bushes
going to the bathroom.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
They were so nice you probably couldn't have been any safer.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
Los Carnelius I think was the name of the biker group.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Is that right?
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Yes, Spider was one of them.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
I know I would freak out if our daughter told
us that story. Yeah, but it was just kind of
a gut thing. We had so much fun, a gut.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Thing to go for a ride with a.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Safe We'd been there with them all afternoon drinking and stuff.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Wow, even safer drink on the motorcycle. It's a JV
and Sandy show.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
This is ninety eight one Cavett, Austin's all time country Favorites.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Ninety eight one Cavett.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
It's the JB and Sandy Morning Show George Straight tonight
at the Moody Center. He's there Saturday night too. Bob
Pickett is going to be there repping Kvett. So stop by,
say hi to Bob. He is quite a history with
George Straight.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Yeah, I've caught him talking about it yesterday. He's got
a story for everything.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Yeah, it's incredible.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And he posted a video on Instagram at kyvet fm
and it's really interesting how George Strait wrote him a letter,
a note, an excuse.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
For being late, late to work, late to work like
he was.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Because he had to go do overnights. Yeah. Yeah, and
he was running late because he's hanging with George Straight,
I know, on the bus.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
It's really cool and you can see the whole thing
Bob does.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
Bob's great storyteller, great storyteller.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
And so you can see that video on Instagram at
kvetfm and.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
He posts a photo of the note that George Straight
wrote to get him out of be in trouble for
being late.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
And what's funny because if he didn't that was a
time when overnight jocks were live.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Yeah, he wasn't there.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Nothing happened exactly, nothing place just had some bad air. Sorry,
was hanging with George straight. Check it out at KVET
FM on Instagram. Well weather permitting, you can see Gary
Allen to They're out rock Amphitheater tomorrow night's weather permitting.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah, there's a lot of things going on that are
contingent on weather. Kitefest this weekend, Captain k Yeah at
the Gary Allen. I haven't been to that round rock Empathy.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
It's awesome, it's awesome. I went to a couple of
shows there last year. Fantastic, really cool venue.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
No, what else is a cool venue? I went to
the for the first time, right in your neighborhood. I
think the hot hot.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Hotspot, hot hot spot, so cool, great place.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Yeah, fantastic. I mean they they did it like the
old backyard, but did.
Speaker 5 (12:57):
It better, smaller and cleaner.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Yeah, and you don't get killed crossing the street right
to get into it.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Where your car's parked halfway in a ditch.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Exactly.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yeah. Did you guys see the story? Apparently somebody stole
a puppy. Where was the puppy stolen.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
From Austin Humane society?
Speaker 3 (13:17):
Isn't it like thirty five dollars to adopt the dog?
Speaker 5 (13:20):
They stay give them away too.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Sometimes this woman was slipped it into a giant purse
and stole the dog. They've got all these video pictures
of her, so.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Like she went and saw the dog and got it
out of the kennel and then just stuffed it.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Yep, and walked. Who does that?
Speaker 2 (13:38):
My wife would do that?
Speaker 3 (13:41):
You not? Your wife would still imagine this?
Speaker 2 (13:43):
If this dog is so cute, it's the kind of
ugly little terrier we always adopt. We have two of
them at home right now. They're so dang ugly, but
they're cute because they're ugly. This little dog that the
woman stole is that kind of dog. Yeah. If my
wife walked in there and saw that dog and it
had like papers on the cage or whatever that said
(14:04):
this dog has been adopted, she would steal it.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
I prompt.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
She can't control herself around dogs.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
It's the JB and Sandy Show.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
George Straight ninety eight one ka Bat, Austin's All Time
Country Favorites ninety eight one K beat. It's the JB
and Sandy Morning Show. If you're just joining us trying
to get here a little bit earlier tomorrow, but you
can stay caught up by grabbing the podcast version of
the show search JB and Sandy on the iHeartRadio app.
We also did an extra podcast. We call it a
(14:37):
Deep Dive into the murder of Mariah Moe Wilson a
year and a half, two years ago when that happened, and.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
We just needed a lot more time to break it down,
so we put that on exclusive for the podcast.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Right, and JB knows two of the three people.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
That's weird when you know someone going to prison.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah, it is, It's very weird. We're also it's also
weird is Trissa's love of the raccoon.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Oh so I'm I'm, I'm like, you know, doom scrolling?
Is that what they call it? Just sitting around like
I often do on Instagram? And I came across this
feed called yard Topia Adventures and it's it's connected to
and name me right and might recognize. I believe she's
(15:22):
a longtime listener. I was like, did I work with her?
I think she's a listener, Jenny Jenny Tigue. So she
has another account called yard Topia Underscore Adventures, and she
has cameras on her back patio and she'll sit out
there at night and she's like the raccoon whisper. These
these raccoons will come up and eat out of her hands.
(15:44):
And she's got a bunch of videos up on her
Instagram page, and I immediately thought of Tricia, who's a
bit obsessed with raccoon.
Speaker 5 (15:52):
I want a raccoon so bad.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
You want a restaurant badly.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
I need to find a baby raccoon who has fallen
out of the tree or his mom's a baby them,
and then I need to raise it as a domesticated pet.
And I want to feed at marshmallows because from what
I can tell, that's their favorite food.
Speaker 5 (16:08):
What I love about.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Your Topia's posts is that she has big bowls of food,
but she also has big bowls of water, because you know,
raccoons like to wash their food, so she'll hand the raccoon.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
I'm sorry, Well I.
Speaker 5 (16:22):
Do because I'm a little bit of an expert.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
I know that they wash their food because there's hilarious
videos of people giving raccoons cotton candy. I go to
wash it and just disappears, and they're like, what the
what the hell. It's like a magic trick.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
She hands them like a nilla wafer and they wash it,
wash it, wash it and then they eat it like
it's mesmerizing to watch. And she has them all names.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Well, I DMed her, told her about your obsession, and
we just might be able to make something happen. Now
you're going to have to probably pull an all nighter.
They're pretty nocturnal.
Speaker 5 (16:54):
That's true.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
They are nocturnal. Another fact I know because I know
a lot about raccoons.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Let's get Ginny on the show.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Let's talk to her and see if we can set
something up where Trisha goes and spends the night with
the raccoons.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Weird. Stay tuned, We'll stay on best friends.
I'm kind of surprised that they're doing this, but it's
a renovation that everybody wants. Trisia'll tell you about a
dance hall in Texas that's making a big renovation coming
up next. Good morning, it's the JB and Sandy Show.
My name is Sandy. This is JB.
Speaker 2 (00:12):

People have been going for generations. You know that when

renovation is acy.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I've been there, but it must have been a cooler
time of year. I didn't know that was a thing.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
I mean also when you're dancing, even if it's kind
of cold outside, if you're.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Dancing, you get kind of hot.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
But I've only, I guess ever been in the summer,
and man, you just are prepared to sweat because they
just all they do is prop open their windows. You know,
it's one hundred and fifty years old. So the fact
that they've chosen to go ahead and like bring it
into the future a little bit into this modern day
with AC, I think that's huge and I think a
lot more people are going to go and dance.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
What sassification of America.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
You know what's funny. It makes me think about when
my daughter was going to Camp Longhorn. They don't have
air cond in those cabins, and she's there in the
heat of the summer and she would say, you adjust
to it.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Still a little hot at night. But like we're spoiling
ourselves with this air conditioning thing.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Okay, and Sandy, all right, stick her out still to come.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
We got an ode for you in just a little bit.
I don't know what I'm going to write it about
because I haven't been inspired yet.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
So we got the Ode of the Day coming up.
A ninety eight to one cavet.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Big news from the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Research Center.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
The owllet has hatched, the first one, the first one.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
If you're not following this story, there's an owl that
comes back to Austin every single year.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Right, yep.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
Her name is Athena, right.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
And she takes up residence.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
At the Wildflower Center, at the Wildflower Center in the
same spot, and they set up a camera that you
can watch her twenty four to seven. They see you
can see that she's laiter eggs. You can see her
keeping her eggs warm. You can see her mate, who,
by the way, does not have a name. It's just
a great horned owl comes and brings her dead mice
and stuff to eat all the time.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
It's a smart owl.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Keep her fetch, yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Keep her happy. I'm watching Athena right now on the
live stream on YouTube. That's pretty cool.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Yeah, it's very cool.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Why and she's not doing anything, She's just sitting on
her edge, s mesmerizing.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Yes. And so one of them was born this week.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
One of them hatch this week.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
We're waiting on the second one, and they have kind
of a breakdown of like what happens over the next
couple of weeks. For the first couple of weeks, obviously,
they're so small they have to be protected and kept warm.
At three to four weeks out, they're going to be
a little bit bigger. Their feathers are going to start
coming out. They're going to be able to start kind
of eating and feeding themselves pretty quickly. I don't know,
(03:45):
but I think that now that we've got the first one,
everyone just wants to see it, and everybody's keep an
eye on the second one waiting for it to hatch
as well.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Now I'm looking at the timeline they like they have
a twenty twenty six timeline. March fourth, Athena arrived the fifth,
she later first egg, on the ninth, she later second egg.
But I scroll down it goes all the way back
to twenty twelve. These are all Athena.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
These are all Athena as far as I know.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
No, I don't know. She sure, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
I mean, do they put a band on her or
something to know that that's Athena when she comes back.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Athena nested for the first time in twenty twelve.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
How long does an owl live?
Speaker 1 (04:24):
A long time? I think also lived for a long time. Well,
she's a she's a local now or snowbird maybe, I
don't know, but she's here for what is that four fourteen.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Years she's been coming back. They can live, They can
live over twenty years, huh.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
And one of them has been born.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
So now the big thing is everybody's going to want
to name the baby.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
Oh yeah, A little rude that the dad doesn't get
a name, don't y'all A little bit?
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Yeah, But I mean it's just like humans when the
baby's born. The dad isn't that no longer bored?
Speaker 2 (04:51):
He just fetches food.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
That's exactly who right ninety eight one Kvette, It's the
JB and Sandy Show. Thanks for being here Kite Festival
this weekend. But I hope the weather weather cooperates.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Have you looked at the ten day forecast.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
I haven't.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Yes, there's storms or scattered thunderstorms for the next ten
days rain. If I could see beyond that, it might
be even more.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
But like, we're not going inches of rain for the weekend.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
I mean, I think so.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
This town freaks out when the first rain drop falls.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
I know, yeah, to a TV, we can always use
the rain stuck up on water and toilet paper.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I'm ready to write an ode, but I need to
be inspired. I know our listeners have been hitting you
up DM and you on social with some topics.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Let me throw a few of these out at you.
And if you've not heard him, do the od of
the day. I threw out these suggestions from you the listener.
Sandy has one song to write, the entire pond.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Short song too. I'm looking at it as a speed poet,
though it's gonna be tough.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
A couple of suggestions that came in ode to I
thirty five.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Isn't that really?
Speaker 2 (06:02):
You never use thirty rarely if I have to exhausting
I live right, but I do all the time.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
It's not cool?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Uh ode to Captain.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
K Maybe that's a maybe. It kind of hit me
a little bit. Do you have another one?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
And another suggestion that came in ode to kites and
or the kite fest.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Oh, I like that. I think O to the kite Festival.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
That's the happiest place in Austin on the day of
the kite Festival is at Zilker Park. Yeah, I like that.
I will write the ode to the kite Festival. You'll
stick around. I told you it's a short one song
is two minutes and forty nine seconds. I got to
get the writing stick around. I'll perform it. Coming up
next it's The JB and Sandy Show ninety eight one KVAC.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
Good morning dude. That was stressful.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
That was a short, Yeah song, one song to write
an entire poem.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Yeah, two minutes and forty nine seconds. Dustin Lynch Mackenzie
Porter not thought not very long, but I did do it.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Of course, of course you did, You're professional.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
I was inspired by a listener's suggestion to write an
ode to the Kite Festival, which is this weekend in
Zilker Park, and I will now perform said o, The.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Ode to the Kite Festival.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Bye Sama, Oh Hell. The Austin Kite Fest, brought to
you by ABC Home Services. That glorious day where wind
meets ego and dreams fly away.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Gotta watch that ego.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Thousands of hipsters in ironic.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Teas unleashing their kites like they're curing disease. Creet big
finish had to be short because I only had two
minutes forty nine seconds to do it.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Still impressive.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
There's the blue diamond, red white and blue being flown
by a dad.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Who's regretting it too. It's hard.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
I think JB's Peanut Gallery comments are better than the
voice one kvet George Strait tonight at the Moody Center,
Gary Allen at the Round Rock Amphitheater on Friday Night,
and Tricia is going to take a trip down memory Lane.
And I can't believe that your friends Brittany and Jennifer
who we called Jack, aren't coming into town. Brittany lives
(08:58):
in Weatherford, and I only knows where Jennifer lives. I
mean she every year it's a different address with you.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
She goes by Jack.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
JK and uh, you call and told him that you're
going to the show.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
I sent him a text and I was like, just
so y'all know.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
JB, Sandy and I were introducing Gary Allen at his
concert on Friday night and there were instantly my phone
blew up all cats, no way, oh.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
My god, freaking out.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
They might be two of the biggest Gary Allen fans
I have ever met. And back in the day when
three of us would run around, his songs were like
the background of all of our adventures?
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Were you?
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Was it the background of your adventure when you when
you rode with that biker gang Tehana?
Speaker 4 (09:41):
No, that that was some Tehana music on that ride,
on that adventure.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
We went to all him an adventures. I like to
sort of Dora the Explore.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
Now on the lake in the car, at.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
The gangs that you that you joined.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
We went to a wedding brunch, a bridal brunch in
San Angelo, and after the brunch was over, we ended
up at this Tejano biker bar. The three girls, me,
Jack and Brittany and ended up making friends with everybody
in the bar, and then they took us out on
rides around sananchelocycles.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
They were the nicest people. Didn't you have to ask
the guys to pull over?
Speaker 4 (10:21):
Yeah, because we had to go to the bathroom and
they all turned around at one point like they were
standing by their motorcycles and all we could see with
their backs because we were in over lacking the bushes
going to the bathroom.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
They were so nice you probably couldn't have been any safer.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
Los Carnelius I think was the name of the biker group.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Is that right?
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Yes, Spider was one of them.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
I know I would freak out if our daughter told
us that story. Yeah, but it was just kind of
a gut thing. We had so much fun, a gut.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Thing to go for a ride with a.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Safe We'd been there with them all afternoon drinking and stuff.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Wow, even safer drink on the motorcycle. It's a JV
and Sandy show.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
This is ninety eight one Cavett, Austin's all time country Favorites.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Ninety eight one Cavett.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
It's the JB and Sandy Morning Show George Straight tonight
at the Moody Center. He's there Saturday night too. Bob
Pickett is going to be there repping Kvett. So stop by,
say hi to Bob. He is quite a history with
George Straight.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Yeah, I've caught him talking about it yesterday. He's got
a story for everything.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Yeah, it's incredible.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And he posted a video on Instagram at kyvet fm
and it's really interesting how George Strait wrote him a letter,
a note, an excuse.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
For being late, late to work, late to work like
he was.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Because he had to go do overnights. Yeah. Yeah, and
he was running late because he's hanging with George Straight,
I know, on the bus.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
It's really cool and you can see the whole thing
Bob does.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
Bob's great storyteller, great storyteller.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
And so you can see that video on Instagram at
kvetfm and.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
He posts a photo of the note that George Straight
wrote to get him out of be in trouble for
being late.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
And what's funny because if he didn't that was a
time when overnight jocks were live.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Yeah, he wasn't there.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Nothing happened exactly, nothing place just had some bad air. Sorry,
was hanging with George straight. Check it out at KVET
FM on Instagram. Well weather permitting, you can see Gary
Allen to They're out rock Amphitheater tomorrow night's weather permitting.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah, there's a lot of things going on that are
contingent on weather. Kitefest this weekend, Captain k Yeah at
the Gary Allen. I haven't been to that round rock Empathy.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
It's awesome, it's awesome. I went to a couple of
shows there last year. Fantastic, really cool venue.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
No, what else is a cool venue? I went to
the for the first time, right in your neighborhood. I
think the hot hot.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Hotspot, hot hot spot, so cool, great place.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Yeah, fantastic. I mean they they did it like the
old backyard, but did.
Speaker 5 (12:57):
It better, smaller and cleaner.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Yeah, and you don't get killed crossing the street right
to get into it.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Where your car's parked halfway in a ditch.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Exactly.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yeah. Did you guys see the story? Apparently somebody stole
a puppy. Where was the puppy stolen.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
From Austin Humane society?
Speaker 3 (13:17):
Isn't it like thirty five dollars to adopt the dog?
Speaker 5 (13:20):
They stay give them away too.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Sometimes this woman was slipped it into a giant purse
and stole the dog. They've got all these video pictures
of her, so.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Like she went and saw the dog and got it
out of the kennel and then just stuffed it.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Yep, and walked. Who does that?
Speaker 2 (13:38):
My wife would do that?
Speaker 3 (13:41):
You not? Your wife would still imagine this?
Speaker 2 (13:43):
If this dog is so cute, it's the kind of
ugly little terrier we always adopt. We have two of
them at home right now. They're so dang ugly, but
they're cute because they're ugly. This little dog that the
woman stole is that kind of dog. Yeah. If my
wife walked in there and saw that dog and it
had like papers on the cage or whatever that said
(14:04):
this dog has been adopted, she would steal it.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
I prompt.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
She can't control herself around dogs.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
It's the JB and Sandy Show.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
George Straight ninety eight one ka Bat, Austin's All Time
Country Favorites ninety eight one K beat. It's the JB
and Sandy Morning Show. If you're just joining us trying
to get here a little bit earlier tomorrow, but you
can stay caught up by grabbing the podcast version of
the show search JB and Sandy on the iHeartRadio app.
We also did an extra podcast. We call it a
(14:37):
Deep Dive into the murder of Mariah Moe Wilson a
year and a half, two years ago when that happened, and.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
We just needed a lot more time to break it down,
so we put that on exclusive for the podcast.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Right, and JB knows two of the three people.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
That's weird when you know someone going to prison.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah, it is, It's very weird. We're also it's also
weird is Trissa's love of the raccoon.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Oh so I'm I'm, I'm like, you know, doom scrolling?
Is that what they call it? Just sitting around like
I often do on Instagram? And I came across this
feed called yard Topia Adventures and it's it's connected to
and name me right and might recognize. I believe she's
(15:22):
a longtime listener. I was like, did I work with her?
I think she's a listener, Jenny Jenny Tigue. So she
has another account called yard Topia Underscore Adventures, and she
has cameras on her back patio and she'll sit out
there at night and she's like the raccoon whisper. These
these raccoons will come up and eat out of her hands.
(15:44):
And she's got a bunch of videos up on her
Instagram page, and I immediately thought of Tricia, who's a
bit obsessed with raccoon.
Speaker 5 (15:52):
I want a raccoon so bad.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
You want a restaurant badly.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
I need to find a baby raccoon who has fallen
out of the tree or his mom's a baby them,
and then I need to raise it as a domesticated pet.
And I want to feed at marshmallows because from what
I can tell, that's their favorite food.
Speaker 5 (16:08):
What I love about.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Your Topia's posts is that she has big bowls of food,
but she also has big bowls of water, because you know,
raccoons like to wash their food, so she'll hand the raccoon.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
I'm sorry, Well I.
Speaker 5 (16:22):
Do because I'm a little bit of an expert.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
I know that they wash their food because there's hilarious
videos of people giving raccoons cotton candy. I go to
wash it and just disappears, and they're like, what the
what the hell. It's like a magic trick.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
She hands them like a nilla wafer and they wash it,
wash it, wash it and then they eat it like
it's mesmerizing to watch. And she has them all names.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Well, I DMed her, told her about your obsession, and
we just might be able to make something happen. Now
you're going to have to probably pull an all nighter.
They're pretty nocturnal.
Speaker 5 (16:54):
That's true.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
They are nocturnal. Another fact I know because I know
a lot about raccoons.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Let's get Ginny on the show.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Let's talk to her and see if we can set
something up where Trisha goes and spends the night with
the raccoons.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Weird. Stay tuned, We'll stay on best friends.
