🎙️ When Carp Fall From the Sky and Love Speaks in Middle Fingers
What happens when a lake is under attack, armadillo becomes barbecue, and an Easter basket crosses every possible line?
JB, Sandy, and Tricia kick things off by diving into a full-on ecological showdown on Lake Austin 🌊🐟. Invasive hydrilla is taking over, and the city’s controversial solution? Dropping thousands of carp into the lake from the sky. Yes—literal fish falling from helicopters. The crew debates whether this is genius… or “playing God,” as Sandy perfectly puts it.
Then things take a wildly Texan turn 🤠🔥. A viral video sparks a no-holds-barred conversation about barbecued armadillo, leading to a call with JB’s sister Chris and a deep dive into “living off the land” stories that are equal parts shocking and hilarious.
Sandy composing and performing an original ode to barbecued armadillo, featuring the unforgettable line: “Poor prairie lobster.” 🦔🎤
The laughs keep coming as Sandy reveals the most unholy Easter basket surprise of all time 🐣😳—a handmade plaster cast of Tricia’s hand… permanently stuck giving the middle finger. “Nothing says ‘He is risen’ quite like that,” Sandy jokes, summing up their lovingly chaotic, gloriously strange marriage in one unforgettable moment.
The episode also hits a heartfelt note with a tribute to longtime Austin weatherman Dan Robertson ❤️, followed by a jaw-dropping story of a daring air rescue that sounds more like a movie plot than real life.

Speaker 1 (00:02):
There's a war that's about to happen on Lake Austin,
and Trisia's got the details for you in just a second.
It's ninety eight one Cavett. You can grab the podcast
version of the show on the iHeartRadio app search JB
and Sandy. We post it every single day. Tricia got
a podcast editing lesson yesterday. She's now in charge of
(00:23):
the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
I'm in charge of it, so you guys give me
a second.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Be careful what you wish for. It's like when you
couldn't wait to mow the lawn when you were a kid,
then it became your job.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Sandy was like, it's a quick little let me just
show you real quick.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Half an hour later, fourteen pages of notes later, I
was like, when is it over?
Speaker 1 (00:42):
But check it out search JB and Sandy on the
iHeartRadio app. What's going on Lake Austin?
Speaker 4 (00:46):
All right, so hydrilla is back. It's taking over Lake Austin.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
They said, there's.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Probably greatin stuff that grows in the lake.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
It's like it's also called duck weed. Yeah, yeah, it
grows rapidly, especially when it gets hot. The water gets hot.
Which are we're going to have a hot summer.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
Yeah, they said that it's covering about six hundred acres
of the lake right now.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yeah, it's so bad. There's there's places where people cannot
get their boats in and out of their.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Dock because we can wrap around the prop.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Yeah, it is that bad.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Wow, So what are they doing?
Speaker 4 (01:20):
The aggressive approach they're taking and they've done this before
and I feel like we had some mixed.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Reviews on it. They're throwing some carp in.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
They're gonna release about twenty seven hundred grass carp into
the lake. And the guy was like, if there's carp
in the lake, if there's hydrilla in the lake, the
carp is eaten the hydrilla period.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
So when they did this, it's very controversial because when
they did it in the past, the carp ate too much.
They ate everything everything. Yeah, and then it got kind
of you know, when you don't have anything holding the dirt.
It just became very muddy for a sure. And then
we had zebra muscles which cleaned up the water a
little bit. They're invasive too, and then we have donkey slugs.
(02:03):
It's just the Yeah, the ecosystem of the lake is stuff.
When you start playing god. Yeah, but it is a
mess like it would be if they didn't do something,
that lake would be unusable by for recreation, fishing everything
by summer.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Now they put these carp The last time they did it,
I remember they were sterile, so they weren't going to
make more carps, right, are they doing the same thing
with these?
Speaker 4 (02:26):
They're not talking about if they can reproduce or not.
They're just they're just saying we're going to have about
eight carp per acre, which I guess that means they
can't reproduce.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
They know exactly how many they're putting in there.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
Yeah, but you know who's not happy about this all
the fishermen because they're like, when I'm looking for a
big giant bass, I'm looking for a big pile of hydraeler.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
It definitely that's a great bass fishing lake.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
The tournament like every Tuesday night, I think.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
They used to on Wednesday nights. They used to, but
it's been affected, Like you don't see all the turtles,
and I think that it's really affected all that. So, Yeah,
the fishermen love it because it gives you more places to.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
They just fly a helicopter over and then just drop
all the carpet out of the net. That'd be kind
of cool to watch. It's a Jamie and Sandy show,
A ninety eight one kvat JB's sister Chris is on
the phone now.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
We were talking about it earlier that we found a
woman on Instagram that was barbecue and armadillo. And if
I figured anyone in Texas knows anything about that, it
would be me and my sister Chris. It's not her now.
I don't think she would eat barbecue armadillo, but her
husband or her son might have. My sister Chris is
(03:36):
on the phone. Hey, Chris, Hey.
Speaker 5 (03:40):

It's because we're poe. So here's to you, little buddy,
(09:18):
you leather ead the light I may not have eaten
you had you put up a fight.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
You're welcome for poor Prairie last year.
Speaker 6 (09:32):
Coming up with JB and Sandy.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
All right, don't go anywhere, because Tricia and I are married.
We've got a very strange marriage. And it's never been
more true than the Easter basket that she gave me.
She should have been struck by lightning. Stick around find
out what was in it. Coming up Austin's all time
country Favorites ninety eight one kvat. Yesterday, of course, was Easter,
(09:57):
and Tricia decided to really break all the rules with
my Easter basket. I should have known because normally we
don't exchange an Easter basket, but this year Tricia did.
And I are married, by the way, just so you
know that we have a very unusual, different kind of marriage.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
If you haven't heard these two, how they're still together
is beyond me. It's a very non traditional marriage.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Swingers or anything.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
No, no, no, not that, not that. Today. I married my
best friends, not mine. Probably have five or six you
would put ahead.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
It's our love language. Is given each other a hard
time mocking.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
The last thing we do before we go to bed,
and we sleep in separate bedrooms. We shoot each other
the finger.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
That's your good night, that's our good night.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
So that's the last thing either of us sees from
the other one at night.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
So God forbid something happens in the night.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
That literally us shooting the finger at each other is
our last mental image.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Right. So, and we normally do not exchange Easter baskets.
And I should have. I've known something was up and Jaby,
I'm gonna text you a photograph. Don't open it just yet,
but here's leading up to it. I was not allow
a box came from Amazon. I was not allowed to
look at the box that was banned. And then I
was out running some errands on Saturday and I came
(11:16):
back and Tricia and our sixteen year old were in
the kitchen and as soon as the door opened, I
got don't come in here, do not come in. I'm like,
what is going on? Right? So I ignored it. I'm like
two hours later, I'm like, can I come out now?
Can I come out now? And she's like, yes, you
can come out. Then let's fast forward to Easter Sunday,
(11:36):
yesterday morning, and sitting on the kitchen table is an
Easter basket with a kitchen towel draped over the top
of it, so I can't see what's inside. So we
go through the process of our daughter going through her basket,
all that stuff. Tricia got a few little things. Now
it's my turn to open it up, to take the
(11:57):
towel off of the easter basket. Now is and I
want you O JB. To look at the photo that
I sent you, And that is what was underneath the towel.
That's what it was on Easter Sunday of all days,
in an Easter basket. Tricia decides to make a plaster Paris.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
Mold your hand.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
She stuck her hand into the plaster Paris with her
middle finger out and let it form to her finger,
and then put it in my Easter basket.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
And then you let it dry.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
And I mounted it on a nice wooden plast and
I set it in his Easter basket with eggs full
of candy all around it.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Wow, nothing says the Lord has risen like that?
Speaker 5 (12:49):
Right.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Strange marriage, and I love it.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
I wouldn't want it any other way. To your all
time Country Favorites eight One caveat Boy, How great is
it that those those those airmen were rescued that were
shot down and Iran and gotten out of there. How
cool is it? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (13:08):
I don't know any details because I I just heard
that this morning early early on the radio and I
was like, Wow, that's just amazing because the plane was
shot down, right and they got him. I don't know
what happened.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
So they two ejected. One they found very shortly after
he ejected. The other guy ejected at the same time.
And they had a difficult they were telling us they
were off a difficult time finding them. The truth is
they knew exactly where he was the whole time because
they have it like a beacon that they wear.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
And then don't you would notice your your dad flew
in the Air Force. Don't they have like beacons and
built into a watch or something like that.
Speaker 1 (13:45):

was in their flight suits. I do know that. And
so they kind of and they was just getting to

pulled the flim flam on them.

Speaker 4 (14:06):
They had him climb like a seven thousand foot hill
or something to get him to where needed to go.
But what they did, which is amazing, they started sending
out information over the airwaves that they knew the Iranians
were listening to. They're like, we got him. He's over here.
And they sent a bunch of planes in one direction. Oh,
but really they were going over here to pick him

up in the opposite them.
Speaker 1 (14:29):

years ago. It was pretty rapid.

Oh that's good. Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Fast and finally this was very fun.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Our first call in from Coach Brown dat Yeah, Coach
Brown's a podcaster.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
I tried to talk sports with him. He wanted to
do it.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
A podcast is the weirdest thing.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Microphones and headphone all things. Don't want to talk sports.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Tried to talk to him about his podcast with Vince Young.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Yeah yeah, Bob Bob Blue just want to talk about
podcasting microphone.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
So we should also remember Dan Robertson today.
Speaker 3 (20:40):

Speaker 1 (20:44):
Yeah, heart attacking.
Speaker 3 (20:45):

We'll see you tomorrow. Bye.
There's a war that's about to happen on Lake Austin,
and Trisia's got the details for you in just a second.
It's ninety eight one Cavett. You can grab the podcast
version of the show on the iHeartRadio app search JB
and Sandy. We post it every single day. Tricia got
a podcast editing lesson yesterday. She's now in charge of
(00:23):
the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
I'm in charge of it, so you guys give me
a second.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Be careful what you wish for. It's like when you
couldn't wait to mow the lawn when you were a kid,
then it became your job.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Sandy was like, it's a quick little let me just
show you real quick.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Half an hour later, fourteen pages of notes later, I
was like, when is it over?
Speaker 1 (00:42):
But check it out search JB and Sandy on the
iHeartRadio app. What's going on Lake Austin?
Speaker 4 (00:46):
All right, so hydrilla is back. It's taking over Lake Austin.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
They said, there's.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Probably greatin stuff that grows in the lake.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
It's like it's also called duck weed. Yeah, yeah, it
grows rapidly, especially when it gets hot. The water gets hot.
Which are we're going to have a hot summer.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
Yeah, they said that it's covering about six hundred acres
of the lake right now.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yeah, it's so bad. There's there's places where people cannot
get their boats in and out of their.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Dock because we can wrap around the prop.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Yeah, it is that bad.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Wow, So what are they doing?
Speaker 4 (01:20):
The aggressive approach they're taking and they've done this before
and I feel like we had some mixed.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Reviews on it. They're throwing some carp in.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
They're gonna release about twenty seven hundred grass carp into
the lake. And the guy was like, if there's carp
in the lake, if there's hydrilla in the lake, the
carp is eaten the hydrilla period.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
So when they did this, it's very controversial because when
they did it in the past, the carp ate too much.
They ate everything everything. Yeah, and then it got kind
of you know, when you don't have anything holding the dirt.
It just became very muddy for a sure. And then
we had zebra muscles which cleaned up the water a
little bit. They're invasive too, and then we have donkey slugs.
(02:03):
It's just the Yeah, the ecosystem of the lake is stuff.
When you start playing god. Yeah, but it is a
mess like it would be if they didn't do something,
that lake would be unusable by for recreation, fishing everything
by summer.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Now they put these carp The last time they did it,
I remember they were sterile, so they weren't going to
make more carps, right, are they doing the same thing
with these?
Speaker 4 (02:26):
They're not talking about if they can reproduce or not.
They're just they're just saying we're going to have about
eight carp per acre, which I guess that means they
can't reproduce.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
They know exactly how many they're putting in there.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
Yeah, but you know who's not happy about this all
the fishermen because they're like, when I'm looking for a
big giant bass, I'm looking for a big pile of hydraeler.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
It definitely that's a great bass fishing lake.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
The tournament like every Tuesday night, I think.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
They used to on Wednesday nights. They used to, but
it's been affected, Like you don't see all the turtles,
and I think that it's really affected all that. So, Yeah,
the fishermen love it because it gives you more places to.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
They just fly a helicopter over and then just drop
all the carpet out of the net. That'd be kind
of cool to watch. It's a Jamie and Sandy show,
A ninety eight one kvat JB's sister Chris is on
the phone now.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
We were talking about it earlier that we found a
woman on Instagram that was barbecue and armadillo. And if
I figured anyone in Texas knows anything about that, it
would be me and my sister Chris. It's not her now.
I don't think she would eat barbecue armadillo, but her
husband or her son might have. My sister Chris is
(03:36):
on the phone. Hey, Chris, Hey.

It's because we're poe. So here's to you, little buddy,
(09:18):
you leather ead the light I may not have eaten
you had you put up a fight.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
You're welcome for poor Prairie last year.
Speaker 6 (09:32):
Coming up with JB and Sandy.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
All right, don't go anywhere, because Tricia and I are married.
We've got a very strange marriage. And it's never been
more true than the Easter basket that she gave me.
She should have been struck by lightning. Stick around find
out what was in it. Coming up Austin's all time
country Favorites ninety eight one kvat. Yesterday, of course, was Easter,
(09:57):
and Tricia decided to really break all the rules with
my Easter basket. I should have known because normally we
don't exchange an Easter basket, but this year Tricia did.
And I are married, by the way, just so you
know that we have a very unusual, different kind of marriage.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
If you haven't heard these two, how they're still together
is beyond me. It's a very non traditional marriage.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Swingers or anything.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
No, no, no, not that, not that. Today. I married my
best friends, not mine. Probably have five or six you
would put ahead.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
It's our love language. Is given each other a hard
time mocking.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
The last thing we do before we go to bed,
and we sleep in separate bedrooms. We shoot each other
the finger.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
That's your good night, that's our good night.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
So that's the last thing either of us sees from
the other one at night.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
So God forbid something happens in the night.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
That literally us shooting the finger at each other is
our last mental image.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Right. So, and we normally do not exchange Easter baskets.
And I should have. I've known something was up and Jaby,
I'm gonna text you a photograph. Don't open it just yet,
but here's leading up to it. I was not allow
a box came from Amazon. I was not allowed to
look at the box that was banned. And then I
was out running some errands on Saturday and I came
(11:16):
back and Tricia and our sixteen year old were in
the kitchen and as soon as the door opened, I
got don't come in here, do not come in. I'm like,
what is going on? Right? So I ignored it. I'm like
two hours later, I'm like, can I come out now?
Can I come out now? And she's like, yes, you
can come out. Then let's fast forward to Easter Sunday,
(11:36):
yesterday morning, and sitting on the kitchen table is an
Easter basket with a kitchen towel draped over the top
of it, so I can't see what's inside. So we
go through the process of our daughter going through her basket,
all that stuff. Tricia got a few little things. Now
it's my turn to open it up, to take the
(11:57):
towel off of the easter basket. Now is and I
want you O JB. To look at the photo that
I sent you, And that is what was underneath the towel.
That's what it was on Easter Sunday of all days,
in an Easter basket. Tricia decides to make a plaster Paris.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
Mold your hand.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
She stuck her hand into the plaster Paris with her
middle finger out and let it form to her finger,
and then put it in my Easter basket.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
And then you let it dry.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
And I mounted it on a nice wooden plast and
I set it in his Easter basket with eggs full
of candy all around it.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Wow, nothing says the Lord has risen like that?
Speaker 5 (12:49):
Right.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Strange marriage, and I love it.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
I wouldn't want it any other way. To your all
time Country Favorites eight One caveat Boy, How great is
it that those those those airmen were rescued that were
shot down and Iran and gotten out of there. How
cool is it? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (13:08):

that this morning early early on the radio and I
was like, Wow, that's just amazing because the plane was
shot down, right and they got him. I don't know
what happened.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
So they two ejected. One they found very shortly after
he ejected. The other guy ejected at the same time.
And they had a difficult they were telling us they
were off a difficult time finding them. The truth is
they knew exactly where he was the whole time because
they have it like a beacon that they wear.

And then don't you would notice your your dad flew
in the Air Force. Don't they have like beacons and
built into a watch or something like that.

Speaker 4 (14:06):
They had him climb like a seven thousand foot hill
or something to get him to where needed to go.
But what they did, which is amazing, they started sending
out information over the airwaves that they knew the Iranians
were listening to. They're like, we got him. He's over here.
And they sent a bunch of planes in one direction. Oh,
but really they were going over here to pick him
