 That “mystery question” kicks off a hilarious, surprisingly eye-opening ride as JB, Sandy McIlree, and Tricia tackle the kind of everyday habit most people don’t think twice about—until now. Before the rule reveal, the crew launches into peak best-friends energy: Sandy McIlree calls it like it is—“JB, you got scammed, man.” 😆—as JB admits he’ll buy just about anything the algorithm drops in front of him (including “energy and focus” candy that… does absolutely nothing). The roasting is relentless, and the relatability is painfully real. 😂🍬

 Then Tricia comes in with the straight facts on the red-light phone debate, explaining why being stopped doesn’t necessarily mean you’re “off the hook.” It’s the kind of info that instantly makes you look around at the next intersection like… 👀 “Uh oh.” And just when you think it can’t get more chaotic-good, the show swerves into delightfully weird territory: competitive “speed puzzling” 🧩⚡, a laugh-out-loud nostalgia moment featuring homemade Easter baskets crafted from a cut-up cleaning bottle (decorated like a goose!) 🪿🎨, and the crown jewel—Sandy McIlree’s rapid-fire “Ode to the Easter Bunny.”

🐰✍️ Highlights include the unforgettable line: “You think you could whip Santa in a bare-knuckle fist fight?” and the very serious consumer demand: “Only if my chocolate bunny is solid and not hollow.” Warm, funny, and full of memorable one-liners, this episode also carries a feel-good undercurrent: the trio’s gratitude and excitement about being back together on the air—and inviting everyone to come along for the ride. ❤️📻 ✅ Call to action: If this one made you laugh, think, or side-eye your phone at the next stoplight—subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with a friend who’s always “just checking one thing real quick” at red lights. 🚦😉📲

Speaker 1 (01:33):
People always things called Molly pops. They're supposed to give
you energy and focus.

Speaker 5 (01:38):
Not to be confused with ollipop, which is my wife's
favorite healthy soda.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
H I don't know if you've had that. That's like
the trend now. I assume everywhere healthy soda.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
Yeah, but these molly pops are supposed to give you
energy and focus and all that stuff. We had one
out of forty minutes ago. Push off nothing.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
You know what, you're big beefy dude. Maybe need two.

Speaker 6 (02:00):
Maybe you need to to get those peptides in that
el fiamine to penetrate. Are you feel I felt the
peptides pop off about fifteen minutes after.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
I ate that sucker, I am, I am a sucker.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
See what she is there, JB.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
But I just I'm just.

Speaker 5 (02:16):
Amazed by the algorithm of Instagram. I will buy anything
they put in front of me.

Speaker 4 (02:22):
I mean you really will. They're like send it.

Speaker 6 (02:23):
If they have like a lot of something in stock,
They're all send it to JB's algorithm.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
He'll buy it.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
You're exactly right, and Sandy, all right, Tricia's got the
story we love coming up in just a little bit.
What do you have?

Speaker 6 (02:36):
We have to talk about the mystery question, is it
illegal or is it not illegal to be on your
phone in Texas while you're sitting at a red light?

Speaker 1 (02:46):
Oh? Do you know the answer?

Speaker 4 (02:47):
I do know the answer. I think everybody's going to
be shocked.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Says it's coming up. Is it illegal to be on
your cell phone at a stoplight in Texas? Tricia has
the answer in just a sec. Good morning, It's JB
and Sandy. I'm Sandy and this is JB. Good morning,
and Tricia is here. And just real quick, thank you
to everyone that's been so kind on social media about
us coming back and being on the radio together. For

(03:11):
those of you that don't know, Jbie and I spent
eighteen years together working at another radio station from every morning,
and it's been eleven years since we got back together
and did this. So here we are on the best
radio station in Austin, Texas, the most legendary radio station,
ninety eight one caveat.

Speaker 5 (03:29):
The reality is not quite set in yet now, I
know next not think Monday is going to be different? Yeah,
I think, so get through this for a few days, yeah,
and not get through it, get to do it. But
it's just a little overwhelming, right, New technology, new people
new everything.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
So thank you for making us welcome both of your
phone calls and on social media. So, Tricia, is it
legal or illegal to be on your cell phone at
a stop? Play?

Speaker 6 (03:55):
All right, here's what I'm going to tell you. According
to the Parent Law Firm, a Texas law firm. Under
the law, you're considered to be operating your vehicle whenever
you're in the driver's seat with the engine running, even
when you're stopped. The only time you can legally send
electronic messages is when you're lawfully parked and completely out
of the flow of traffic. So sitting at a red light,

(04:18):
you can't pick up your phone and send a text
because you are still operating the vehicle.

Speaker 5 (04:22):
See that's interesting because I feel like I see it
every day every day, someone who is not going when
the traffic starts to flow because they're staring.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
At their phone.

Speaker 5 (04:33):
Yeah, all the time, all the time. But have you
ever heard of anyone getting a ticket for being on
their phone?

Speaker 1 (04:41):
But I have heard of someone getting a ticket in
the school zone.

Speaker 4 (04:44):
Oh what time? Why would you tell the people I
did that? That's not a good looks for me?

Speaker 3 (04:49):
Eight kids?

Speaker 6 (04:50):
Yeah right, trying to hit the children you guys, and
you zip around buses.

Speaker 4 (04:55):
Here's what I'm going to tell you. I was driving,
I was running late.

Speaker 6 (05:00):
I picked up my phone and as soon as I
started talking, I passed a motorcycle cop coming towards.

Speaker 4 (05:06):
Me in the other lane.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
This was on Quinlan Park Road, right.

Speaker 6 (05:09):
Yeah, and our eyes locked. And in the second our
eyes locked. I knew exactly what I had done. So
when I pulled over because he whipped around, when he
walked up to the car, I go, I totally know
what I did.

Speaker 4 (05:19):
I totally did it. And he was like what, I'm
so sorry.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
It is amazing what catches on and trends and things
that happen.

Speaker 5 (05:31):
It's amazing and I'm amazed at hell. Quite often there's
a competitive version of something where there shouldn't be.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
Right, and this one I would never dream of. We'll
tell you about what it is and just sectrict. You'll
be very excited. Good morning, it's to Jab and Sandy's show.

Tonight eight thirty Lady Longhorns Final four and no forget

(05:57):
where we'll be. Go to ticketmaster dot com.

Speaker 5 (06:00):
Okay, this is a trending new sport. If you will, Tricia,
we think you'll like this.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
Okay, you like doing puzzles.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
Oh yeah, I am a puzzle master.

Speaker 5 (06:13):
I was just guessing, but I figured you'd be a
puzzler type because.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
You can do it in your Jammi's.

Speaker 6 (06:18):
Oh yeah, and I and I play Frank Sinatra. That's
my puzzling music, and I eat Worther's originals.

Speaker 1 (06:25):

Speaker 5 (06:32):
So if you like doing puzzles, this is a new thing.
That's that's trending going around speed puzzling.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
Oh yes, both individual.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
And group like competitive puzzling.

Speaker 6 (06:46):
I feel like that's kind of what I'm in training
for when I'm doing my home puzzling with my Worthers
and stuff. Those crazy people they can dump a puzzle
out and never look at the picture the box for reference,
and they join them in like some crazy short period
of time, just like that.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
So you're suggesting there is a like a skill in.

Speaker 4 (07:08):
Oh, there's a skill.

Speaker 6 (07:09):
I feel like there's a puzzle school somewhere that I
have not heard about yet.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
As you say, there's a puzzle school, yeah.

Speaker 6 (07:15):
That you then like you get your puzzling degree, and
then if you get your masters in speed puzzling, Like,
I feel like those are the steps yours.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
You're so nerdy coming up with JB and Sandy. All right,
don't go anywhere about eight forty this morning the Ode
of the day. All right, I'm a speed poet. You
guys gave us, but give us suggestions and I will
write an ode. Stay with us. It's coming up at
eight forty Austin's All time Country Favorites ninety eight one

(07:47):
cavet JB and Sandy Morning Show. Thanks for being with us.
I feel like I'm ready to be inspired to write
an ode today. And I need to apologize to one
young man who I told his mother. Sandy said he
would write that ode in one song, and there was
two songs, but I had it done. I had a
technical problem. I just want you to know today the

(08:10):
ode will be written in one song and that song
is three minutes and thirty seconds. But I need to
be inspired with a topic.

Speaker 5 (08:19):
Sure, yeah, if you don't know. Sandy's a speed poet.
Is that what they call it in the industry? Yeah,
speed speed poetry.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
Yeah, he'll knock this out in one song.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
I fight with the slam poets a lot.

Speaker 5 (08:29):
Oh yeah, does it get Yeah? Here are a few
suggestions that that were on Facebook, and you just tell
me which one inspires you and won't go with it?

Speaker 1 (08:40):
And cross my heart hope that I did not look
at these right?

Speaker 3 (08:44):
Uh morning coffee?

Speaker 4 (08:47):
Okay, feeling it?

Speaker 1 (08:49):
I'm not feeling it?

Speaker 3 (08:50):
Interesting jelly beans, Yeah, jelly.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Bean, jelly bean? Give email? Last?

Speaker 5 (08:58):
Was there another one more? And you tell you which
one inspires you? Hopefully the Easter Bunny of course, going into.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
That, that's it. That's the one I.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Am inspired by. I am going to write an ode
to mister the Easter Bunny.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
The Easter Bunny.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah, oh it's I've already got it working in my head,
so I got to get it down. I gotta get
my quill out and my parchment. What's going through your head?
I'm trying to tap into this energy all the wonderful,
wonderful things that the Easter Bunny does and can do.

Speaker 3 (09:29):
Word comes to mind, word that.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
Comes to mind? Delight comes to mind.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
It's just IM just trying to get in on the process.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
Well it's a you got it or you don't. You
know what I mean, You do or you don't. I
got to get to write, all right. I will perform
an ode to the Easter Bunny coming up next ninety
eight one kvat this right here, right here might be
some of my finest work.

Speaker 4 (09:54):
Wow, yeah, that's saying something.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Yeah. They may want to take the paper that I
wrote the ode on, frame it and hang it and
hang it in the Blant Museum.

Speaker 5 (10:05):
You should sign everything because you know, oh yeah, I
should for authenticity. As you know, you find years and
years later there's an original piece of paper where there's
Beatles lyrics right right, Oh yeah, and then if John
Lennon doodled on it, it was worth even more.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
That could be our retirement. It's a good play.

Speaker 4 (10:23):
Your odes are our retirement.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
Plan, all right. Someone suggested that I write an ode
to the Easter Buddy. So during that last song the
Eli young Man, I wrote it, and I will now
give you the second half of the amazing talent.

Speaker 5 (10:40):
You guys should see him, right, I mean, it's just
as soon as you know we finished the break and
go into the song. He's just frant He's all hunched
over like Linus playing the piano.

Speaker 4 (10:49):
He let JB and I talk. He's doing it.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
Ode to the Easter Buddy, Bye back, Oh Easter Bundy,
Oh Easter Bundy, you're the king of holiday tricksters. May
I make a grooming suggestion. I think you should shave
your whiskers, Oh Easter Bundy, Easter Bunny, you fluffy the light.

(11:22):
Let me ask you something, Bunny, you think you could
whip Santa in a bare knuckle fistfight. O. My money's
on the.

Speaker 3 (11:30):
Bunny, but they don't really have bare knuckles.

Speaker 1 (11:35):
Easter Buddy, you are a hopping machine. It makes me
wonder what besides sugar is in your jelly beans.

Speaker 3 (11:47):
Something you decline jelly bean as a topic. That's weird
how that works.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
I don't pay homage to the jelly bean. Oh Easter Bunny,
you help us celebrate Easter with good reason. I also
think it's sort of smart you don't work during rabbit
hunting season. Awesome big finish, Oh more, big big finish.

(12:13):
Here am I Ode to the Easter Bunny. Easter Bunny,
I'll find you on Facebook and give you a follow,
but only if my chocolate bunny is solid and not hollow.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
It's not going to make a kid more upset.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
That's right. That is my olde to the Easter Bunny.
That's when you say, great job, Sandy, great job, thanks amazing.

Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering. All this is set against the backdrop of Jacob Kingston’s clan – The Order. A powerful and secretive polygamist organization in Salt Lake City. To whom Jacob is desperate to prove his worth.
