 🎙️ “Why do Europeans hate ice so much?” That’s just one of the many questions Sandy and Trisha tackle in this globe-trotting, laugh-out-loud episode of The Sandy Show. From month-long vacations in Germany to the cult of the bidet sweeping through Trisha’s friend group, this episode dives into the quirks and comforts the rest of the world swears by—and whether Americans should get on board. Heated bathroom floors? Yes, please. Butter on sandwiches? That’s up for debate. But it’s not all cozy towels and cultural critiques. Trisha brings a wild story from the Florida Everglades, where solar-powered robot rabbits are being used to lure out invasive Burmese pythons. Yes, you read that right—robot rabbits. Sandy’s take? He’s ready to sign up for a python-hunting weekend, no questions asked. Other highlights include:
  • A heated debate over an EDM remix of Toby Keith’s “Should’ve Been a Cowboy”
  • Sandy’s dream of opening a sandwich shop where he decides what you eat
  • A hilarious rapid-fire Q&A that reveals Trisha’s history of being caught naked (and Sandy’s spotless record)
Memorable Quote:

🗣️ “You're unwashed. Literally the unwashed.” – Trisha, after realizing she’s the only one in her friend group without a bidet.

Whether you're a fan of cultural commentary, bizarre animal control tactics, or just love a good back-and-forth between two radio pros, this episode delivers.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Okay, if you're an American and you haven't traveled much internationally,
this might come to as a shock to you. But
there's a lot of things that are different in other countries,
way different. Some are good, some are bad. And here
are some things that non American things that the world
highly highly recommends to America. And I'm kind of for

(00:36):
some of them to stay with us because I'm gonna
tell them some things they should think about too, because
I'm not going to let them sit there and boss
USA out. Oh oh yes, I am month long vacations
heck yeah, oh yeah, heck yeah yeah, I'm for that.
I mean, Germany basically thinks it's a Germans think it's
a birthright to have the month of August.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
Off, which I think that's great.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yeah, it's spine shut down your industry for a month.

Speaker 3 (01:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:03):
Spain thinks everybody should nap from about eleven am to two.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
PS siestas for real. I was in Barcelona too, couldn't
find anything open during the cest I finally asked someone
I could see esa.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
Dude, don't do anything right now, dude.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
They also non American things that the world that Americans
should consider taxes being included on the price tag.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
Yeah, so you don't have to see the price tag.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
And then calculate the taxes.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Yes, yeah, yep. Another thing, and we could do a
lot better than this. We just think it's too expensive.

Speaker 5 (01:34):
High speed trains, Yeah, they're everywhere in Europe. They are
awesome too, Yeah, awesome, and they run on time. I mean,
if it's gonna be eight twenty nine, it's there. Yeah,
you better be there because it will be there.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
Here's what I think Trishia will really warm up to.
Towel warmers in the bathroom.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
Heck yeah, followed by heated floors, yeah, heck yes.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
How hard is it to heat a floor? I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
I don't know why it's I don't seems impossible in
the United States, but they have them all over the
place in Europe.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Now, this next one's been gaining some traction in the
United States in recent years. The bid day.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
Oh my god, can I please tell you that?

Speaker 4 (02:11):
When I was on my girls trip last week, all
the girls talked about were the bidets, their love of
the bidets, wanting bidets, girls green. But just got an
update last night that one of my girls had a
bidet installed based all the bidet conversation we had last week.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
Really, yep, they all have.

Speaker 4 (02:30):
I think I'm the only in fact, I know for
a fact out of my five girls, I'm the only
one who doesn't have a bidet.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
You're unwashed, literally the unwashed. Other things that other parts
of the world say America should consider desserts that aren't
insanely sweet.

Speaker 3 (02:46):
I don't know if I agree with that.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Butter on sandwiches and I don't agree with that.

Speaker 6 (02:50):
It depends on is grilled cheese. No, we talked about
a grilled cheese. I remember getting a bag at sandwiches
in Spain. Oh, and it was just butter and meat.
It was delicious. But the butter is better than ours.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
Is Yeah, I mean maybe if it's a bag, the
bread is a big player. And whether or not there
should be better on a sandwich I think.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Right now, I'll tell you some things that one thing
they need to think about. They need to understand something
in Europe that when you order a glass of water
or coke, ice is just frozen water.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
Why do they hate ice? And apparently it's bad form
if you ask for ice. Yeah, like if they bring
you a cup or a glass that has just two
or three little Measley cubes in it, if you ask
for more ice, bad form.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
I don't understand why.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Tacky American, but I don't understand why. I don't understand
it water. It's just a cultural thing.

Speaker 4 (03:41):
I feel like we can make a killing selling ice
in Europe.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
Just go around filling up people's glasses till they get
hooked on it.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
Just selling them. I'll tell you one.

Speaker 4 (03:49):
And speaking of my friend who lived in Budapest, we
could make a killing with like a subway subway sandwich
place where you get to decide what goes on your sandwich.
You know, still kind of communist over there, little the ideas.
You take it as it is or you have to leave.
It's very soup not see over there.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
I like that, Yeah, I like it. That's some interesting stuff.
A couple more we'll go through real quickly. Poutine, which
is a food. Yeah, it's like fries, gravy, cheese, curd,
that type of stuff. Midwestern Midwest people love it, like
just kind of all stuff all piled up right. Also
split duvets, fresh squeeze juice machines and grocery stores and whatever.

(04:29):
Chicken salt is is a big deal in Austria.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
Something uniquely Australian chicken salt. You no idea where that is.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
We either stay with us more coming up one O
three point one Lost Lauren has taken a different approach
to getting rid of the invasive Burmese python that's run
wild in the Everglace. Triso's got the story in just
a moment. Thanks for being with us. You know, you
can grab the podcast version of the show anytime you want.

(04:55):
It's available just search the Sandy Show where you get
your podcast stories.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
From the Lesterholt studio. Let's welcome Trisha Delicia.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
All right down to the Florida Everglades. I feel like
we've been hearing about this for years now. The Burmese
python is taken over, eating the wildlife, messing up the ecosystem.
They have had giant hunts. People can sign up to
go out and hunt and kill the snakes a couple
of times a year helicopter. Yeah, so here's the newest

(05:31):
thing that Florida is trying. They're using forty solar powered
robot rabbits to trap the Burmese pythons. They're decoys and
they mimic the movement, body, heat, and scent of marsh rabbits,
which are a favorite prey of the pythons, and they
lure the snakes out into the open. They remote control
move these rabbits around. The snake follows these robot rabbits

(05:53):
get them out in the open. Then I guess people
just open fire, Well that's fun, or kill them, trap them,
whatever it is that they do to them.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
The key to that is finding the hatch, Like they
want to find the mama with all the eggs.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Oh, I know, I mean this is stuff of nightmares.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
They'll lay hundreds of them.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
I know, like hundreds of eggs.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
At a time, right, And so if they find one
of those, they can eliminate that whole hatch. Then they're
really happy with that.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
So remote controlled rabbits luring them out in addition to
the hunts, In addition to the helicopter hunting.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
I feel like there's some good old boys in South Florida.
They're like, huh, what's wrong with the way we was doing?
Like we enjoyed the way, why we do we're getting fancy. Now.

Speaker 4 (06:36):
What I don't ever understand when I read these stories
is why do they only have them a couple of
times a year? Why if it is such a big problem,
Why isn't that just somebody's job.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
You know how they have the rat tzar in New
York City.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
They didn't do a very good job.

Speaker 4 (06:48):
You know, Pythons are just out there. That's what you
do for a living, is you shoot? You hunt, shoot
and kill the python.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
Don't they incentivize people to go out and hunt them,
like they pay him for snake?

Speaker 4 (06:59):
Yeah, how big the snake is or something like that.
But only a couple times a year. As far as
I know.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
That'd be fun. I'd love to do that.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
I was your job, I.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
Would love to go hunt. I wouldn't want to be
my job, but like a two or three day hunt.
I'm all in ew.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
No part of you afraid of a fifteen twenty foot python, No,
not at all.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
You're like, it's just like a deer.

Speaker 4 (07:18):
To me, A deer cannot kill you.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
The python's not gonna kill me.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
I'm gonna a python could kill you.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
No, I could fight a python.

Speaker 4 (07:26):
Oh shut up, my god, I could fight a python,
a twenty foot python.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
It got itself wrapped around you.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
You wouldn't let him, wouldn't let him get wrapped. I'd
wrap myself around him. That's the story. We love. Stick
around more coming up. Country music fans everywhere are horrified
at what a ed M that's electronic dance music you
named Fabo did to the Toby Kleek Keith classic should

(07:55):
have been a cowboy. Trisha's already already determined, having not
heard its shades.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
Yeah, I feel like don't like it already.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
I love it. I think it sounds really cool. I
kind of like this kind of stuff. But anyway, I'll
just let you listen, you guys decide. All right, Sorry, friends,
but we cannot play the song on the podcast.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
That's cool, I don't. I don't know. It's not as
bad as I thought it was going to be, but
I don't know. I don't. I don't think Toby would
like that at all.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
Oh, I don't think Toby care. I think Toby'd be like, hey,
that's cool. Some people from a completely different genre of
music that dug my music enough to do.

Speaker 6 (08:33):
That to it.

Speaker 4 (08:33):
Yeah that maybe maybe so maybe so Okay, like I said,
I don't dislike it as much as I was prepared
to dislike it.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
Most of the populace they're they're horrified by it. They're
just like, no, you shouldn't do that to Toby Keith
and blah blah blah blah. But I don't know. I
thought it was kind of cool. I thought you would
hate it hard.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
I thought it would hate it hard to it didn't.
I just don't like the douche douche douche.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, I'm sure that's coming later on in the track.

Speaker 4 (08:59):
Yeah, I feel like, yeah, that was just kind of
the beginning getting it ramped up, and then they go
on for like twenty minutes.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Yeah, yeah, that's kind I did see a funny video
of this woman and it said, imagine your kids take
you to a rave and your nine and your nineties
mom rave busts out and then she started dancing, and
it was like it was like the kids like, dude,
I've done this before, you know what I mean? It
was pretty cool. So she's Trisha. My name is Sandy.

(09:25):
Thank you very much for being with us. Today's stick around.
We got more coming up on Austin's eighties station one
O three point one and streaming at one O three
to one Austin dot com. All right, thanks for being
with us. We do it rapid fire, Q and A. Today.
Tricia has got three questions for me, so let's just get.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
To it, all right, Sandy.

Speaker 4 (09:47):
Question number one, starting out, big, big bang question. Have
you ever been caught naked somewhere somewhere we shouldn't have
been naked? This is a little bit in honor of
Naked Season.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
Have I ever been caught naked somewhere where I was
not supposed to be naked? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (10:02):
Or somebody saw you naked who wasn't supposed to see
you naked?

Speaker 2 (10:06):
No, no, no, no, I've got good ears. I didn't
hear people coming, Like.

Speaker 3 (10:13):
No skinny dipping and somebody caught you naked.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
Oh, you're skinny dipping. Your skinny dipping. People know you're naked.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
But I mean sometimes people show up unexpectedly.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
No, really, No, like.

Speaker 4 (10:23):
In your bedroom, curtains open at night, naked neighbor sees you.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
No, No, none of that sounds like things all you've
ex things you've experienced.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
Some of these things have happened to me.

Speaker 4 (10:32):
Yeah, you've literally protected your nudity.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
One hundred percent thus far in your life.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yeah, I have. I've never been caught naked, never, never ever,
I remember.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
It if I had, definitely remember if you're caught naked
by somebody who shouldn't see any true. All right, Next question, Sandy,
if you were going to open a restaurant, what kind
of restaurant would you open?

Speaker 2 (10:59):
You know what I would want to open, but I'm
I couldn't because I don't know enough about it. I
would love to open a really good Italian restaurant, but
I can't cook it. I don't you know. I just
love eating it doesn't mean I can cook it. I
would open up a sandwich shop, and it's a sandwich
shop that I tell you what you get. You don't
get to decide. You're like I look at you and

(11:21):
go roast beef.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
Move along.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
Yeah, you're ask you ham, salami, capacola.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
Do I get to choose my toppings?

Speaker 2 (11:28):
No?

Speaker 3 (11:28):
No, I choose, No I choose.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
I'm the boss. It's the way it goes. It's my
sandwich shop. You get it the way that I make it,
and if you don't like it, you can leave. Very aggressive,
I'm going to complete opposite of subways and all the
places I like. I like going to a place that
they know how it's good.

Speaker 4 (11:46):
Is there something refreshing when you sit down at a
restaurant and on the menu it says what's in the
entree or on the sandwich, and then it says no substitutions.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
I like that.

Speaker 4 (11:56):
There's something a little bit like, ugh good. I don't
have to decide anything.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
No. I love a jersey Mike's and I love that
you can just go MIC's way, just that way. That's
the way I want it. Mike's way, not right right.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
So I thought you're going to say either barbecue or
air fry.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
My sandwich, And let me tell you, the air fryer
is the best when it comes to a sweet potato.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
Yeah, and you don't even like sweet potatoes, and all
you do is cook sweet potato.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
I like sweet potatoes.

Speaker 3 (12:20):
I just like them until recently.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
Well true, I never liked them as a kid, but
now it's that Thanksgiving one that you made that turned
me into a fan. But they're incredibly healthy, Like sweet
potatoes are really healthy.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
For it's just in sweet potato is super healthy.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
I didn't know that until just recently. Yeah, So the
way they're not not. Look the way you make them,
they're not healthy.

Speaker 4 (12:41):
You still get the vitamins from the sweet potato in
my sweet potato cracked casserole recipe, but you also get
like the sugar and the butter and the brown sugar.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
And all that.

Speaker 5 (12:49):
Yeah, and all the crusty stuff. That's we're still getting
the nutrients.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Yeah. I'm just eating them with a dab of butter
and some cinnamon. That is it. They're good.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
All right.

Speaker 4 (13:00):
Here's the question you were to think about when we
go to the store. The other one always goes, well,
give me a little prize. What is the favorite prize
that I have brought you home from a store in
the past.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
I think it just happened last week. Oh you got
me three composition notebooks.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
Oh yeah, fifty cents each. They're on sale. Nothing's too
good for my baby.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
Thank you. I'm glad you think. Because they have the
ones that have like the grid paper on the inside,
that'll mess you. I can't do those. I need the grid, No,
I need the line to paper. These are the cheap
little composition notebooks you got when you were a kid.
I mean the price they are now. Were they giving
them away when we were small, right, there are fifty cents.
They're normally a dollar. They were on sale for fifty cents.

(13:39):
Tricia got me a blue one, a red one, and
a black one, and I started out with my blue
one and I wrote my name on the inside cover.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
If lost, yeah, please return to see.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
I'm a notebook person. I always have a notebook with
me and just to write notes down and stuff. And
then I go through them and then I'm done and
I throw them white.

Speaker 4 (13:57):
But you don't keep them to go back through later
for like I do. Leader, Yeah, I do. Yeah, you
just don't throw them all away. Do you know they do.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
After about a year? I guess I get rid of.
That is rapid fire. Q and A. What we learned
is Trish has been caught maked a lot.

Speaker 3 (14:15):
Definitely anything more than you is a lot.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
Stay with us. More coming up on Austin s ADES
