Speaker 2 (00:11):
And we're all in our places with bright shiny faces.
Thank you very much, miss missus Wendy, my kindergarten teacher,
who I still remember. That's what I learned in kindergarten
right there, we're all in our places. It's the only
thing I remember, right.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
That's it. That's that's it. Nothing else. That and trying
to look up Mary Stephanie skirt. Oh you were dirty
little dude in kindergarten. We were.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Church is always amazed at what a young age guys are.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Are the dirty starts?
Speaker 4 (00:39):
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah yeah definitely an elementary school.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Yeah, we're way ahead of girls. Absolutely. I mean, we
don't know what we're doing.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
You don't know what it is, really curious, right, something's
going on.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
We don't know what it is. We don't know anything
about anything. It's weird.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
I got that stuff until we had an older neighbor
that explained things to you. And then when they did,
you didn't believe it. Yeah, like, no, it's true.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
I guess technically it's not all that different. The curiosity
about girls the same as flipping over a rock to
see if there's bugs under there.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
I just naturally curious.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yeah, that's quite the analogy. We're just looking for bugs, right.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Uh, you know what is?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
I got one thing that's very cool, but one thing
that's not very cool. Guy arrested after allegedly attacking women
with a hammer in Southeast Austin. Both women sustained minor injuries.
I don't know how that happens. You get hit with
a hammer and get minor injuries, right, But yeah, it's
(01:52):
not good.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
That's terrible good.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
I think you recover from hammer attacks. That sounds awful.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
I mean, just ran, probably random, un provoked, it's what
it sounds like. Maybe, Yeah, someone with some mental health issues.
That's homeless, and who knows there was that machete attack
on Ladybird, not on the lake, but on the trail
not that long ago. The same thing is probably a
mental health issue.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Yeah, and our genius DA will probably drop the charges
or not prosecute. You know what I mean, there's a
lot of that. Guy's name is Andre Myers. He's a
forty five year old. He was taken into custody after
the attacks about ten thirty at night on Riverside Drive.
This according to a reported by KI and according to
Austin Police Department. Anyway, I'll tell you what I've noticed
(02:41):
is that, you know, so I walked the Brushy Creek
trail almost every day, and I got this new set
of headphones, and I listened and I listened to different stuff.
But they're so good in blocking out the outside noise
that I don't hear anybody until they're right next to me.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
I see him that they advise against the the noise
canceling for especially for them. And you know, on a
going on a runn or a walk by themselves, you
don't hear what's around you.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Yeah, And that's exactly my point.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
It's like, if you're walking around in Austin or anywhere,
it's just on the street.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
So yeah, come up behind you. You don't even know
they're there until it's too late.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Well, they say, just wear one AirPod in your ear, yeah,
or yeah, you're definitely not supposed to definitely not supposed
to wear noise caring headphones.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
I don't know if you can see these.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Here's a set of headphones I got there called shocks.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
Uh huh. They go over your ear.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
They don't go into your ear, they go over your ear,
and it's most of that noise travels through your your
bones anyway, right, and so you can still hear the
outside noise. These were developed for military hum and then
they they've picked up a lot of people that run
and do stuff like that, and they stay on really
well too, which I always struggled with.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
I've I've got some new ones and they have a
couple of options. One noise canceling too ambient aware, where
you can hear the sounds around you. And two is
called a talk through where you can still have a
conversation with somebody, yeah, and hear them as well as
whatever you're listening to. But I'm telling you, if you're
walking around let's just say downtown Austin or on riverside
(04:14):
in this case, and you're looking at your phone and
you got your headphones on, someone is going to come
by and snatch that phone.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
That's where we've gotten in this world. Absolutely, JB.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
You and I have talked about that girl who gives
the blonde girl who does safety ten us something. Yeah, Dan,
I remember you just talking about her yeah, yeah, that
is one of her number one things. You are immediately
a target if you were not aware, head on a swivel,
what is going on around you? Especially girls, if you're
walking down the street looking at your phone, you have
(04:45):
an X on your back because you're immediately a target
because you're not paying attention to anything else.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Right, You got to be got to be wise, Yeah,
got to be served. Know what's going on around you?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Well if they if you're sitting there on your phone,
it's also your phone is open and engaged, so if
a snag it, yeah, you don't need to log in.
They can immediately change to the passwords and all that
as opposed to finding one lost where you can't get
into it really right, right.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
I saw a store in the news last night that
a guy got his phone stolen in Florida and they
were able to track it and.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
It ended up in Hong Kong.
Speaker 5 (05:23):
It is a whole Yeah, it's there there, bought or
stolen and then sold for parts, stripped for parts, ended
up all the way over in Hong Kong.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And that crazy.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
It is on a much better news and something cool
after telling you something it's not cool. You know, the
band together Texas Show that's going to be at the
Moody Center on August seventeenth. That's the big Miranda Lambert Show.
Kelly Clarkson is also playing that Parker McCollum, a lot
of big names. The Dell Foundation, Michael Dell's organization, posted
this yesterday. Incredible to see our community coming together for
(05:55):
the Band Together Texas Benefit concert. The Dell Foundation is
proud to be a presenting sponsor, and we're grateful to
have Jean Paul and Eloise de Jorio Peace, Love and
Happiness Foundation co present with us. With this sponsorship, Susan
and I that's Michael's wife, are committing an additional seven
hundred and fifty thousand dollars to flood relief and recovery efforts,
(06:15):
building on the one million we've already put into the
hands of local partners operating on the grounds with affected
communities and families. Huge thanks to all the organizers and
artists who are working to help our neighbors recovering from
the floods. Let's keep supporting each other. Please join us
if you can. That's cool, very cool, that's really cool.
Have you guys, let me ask you this. He said
(06:37):
something in here. Very interesting to me. Putting the money
into the hands of the local partners operating on the
ground with affected communities and family. Have people turned on
the Red Cross? That's what I'm saying. They used to
be give to the Red Cross, but now this is
not the first big company to really go directly to
(06:58):
the local people.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
Yeah, right, uh yeah, people don't trust that well, the
big A lot of the you know, it's terrible if
you're running a good, clean organization, but a lot of
those have just gotten fat on bureaucracy, and a lot
of that money doesn't go to where you think it does.
It goes to administration and the reb on the rub
on Red Cross is this.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Was a while back, maybe they've changed things.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Was that when a disaster happened, they just used an
opportunity to collect money in general fundraise. It wasn't going
right to that disaster, right, They've got that father people.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I saw read a story yesterday about the Palisades fire
in California. No one's gotten any relief yet. Where did
the money. There's one hundred million of the concert Oh
and there's been no distribution, right exactly.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Yeah, that's a big question mark and who do you
decide to give it to? That's just that's an odd situation, right.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
They said they gave it to nonprofits, they passed it
out amongst nonprofits, and then they decide what to.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Do with it. But I don't know, it's weird.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
It's it sucks if that slows people down from giving
if they can, right, But I guarantee you Jean Paul
de Jorio and his organization at Michael Dale's Foundation, they
vetted where they vetted where that money is going to go,
that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Streaming on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
This is the JB and Sandy Show on Austin's eighty
station one oh three point one. Christ's got the story
we love in just a moment of high today going
to be ninety seven.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
We talked about it yesterday.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
We're not expecting any one hundred degree days, which is
just crazy in.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
The month of August. That's insane.
Speaker 6 (08:38):
Yeah, very Let's just get killed in September, which right,
first log Horn Football game one hundred and nine, Yeah right, yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
I used to say that worked to our advantage depending
on who we were playing. But uh, you know, they practice.
I don't even think they practice outdoors anymore do they.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yeah, I think they're all under that bubble. Yeah, right
off if by thirty five when they're building a new
one or something like that. But my gush, I think
the Longhorns open up with Ohio State this year.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
They do their first game an away games huge.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
They won the National championship years year and it's in Columbus.
And if you go to that game, let me warn you.
I've been to a longboard back in the bench young days.
The National Championship year. I went to Columbus for a
game and be ready to fight is all. Be on guard.
Those people are savages and the spright in the world.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
Yeah, you'd be. We were walking out leaving the game.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I was walking out with my friend Scott, and people
would like be walking towards you, and like three feet
in front of you, they'd spit on the sidewalk right
in front of you. I said to Scott, I said, Scott,
get ready because if someone spits on me, it were going.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
It is on.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
I went to the game here, I think it was
prior to that one. I went to one here and
it was a night game. I never saw more fights
in my life. Yeah, oh yeah, it was crazy. It
was like being on Bourbon Street at three am.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
You know, and then Columbus, Ohio that's the only game
in town that night, you know what I mean. It's
not like Austin, where you can do five million other
things in and around Austin.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
In Columbus, Ohio, that's it everybody. Yeah, in the Bonus too.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
I think if you go to that game, and let's
say you're an average to maybe a little large person,
you're gonna feel really skinny out there.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Yeah. I've always wanted to do this. I've never had
the nerve like go to a game like that. See
somebody with an Ohio State sweatshirt on or jacket or whatever,
go hey, what year did you graduate?
Speaker 6 (10:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
You know, none of them graduated from me. They're just
you know what I mean, either just fans. That's all
right too, I guess whatever the stories.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
We love Reportando la Velissima.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yosa, Hey, before you report the news. That is one
of our listeners, mister Felix yep. And he left a
book for you somewhere that's signed by Kelly Slater, and
he keeps sending me text messages to remind you to
go pick up the book.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Do you know anything about this, Yes, okay, all right.
He keeps thank you, Felix, Sorry, wants to make sure
you get it right. He left an autographed book I
guess written by Kelly Slater. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
He's a world champion, sir for JB. Somewhere, you guys
sorted out, Trista, what's the story?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
All right?
Speaker 5 (11:41):
So all I can say is sorry about your airport luck.
Texans DFW Airport ranked the most stressful major US airport
per market Watch Guides. Here are some of the stats
that gave him the number one spot. Twenty seven percent
of the flights are delayed, two percent are canceled, thirty
five plus minute TSA, weight lines, an average four hundred
(12:03):
and fifteen dollars, ticket long terminals, and lost luggage all
add to the high ranking of DFW being the worst.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Yeah. I just went through it last week. Yeah, going
to Nebraska and I left what day?
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Did I leave? On Saturday? And on Saturday and didn't
get to Omaha until Monday.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yeah, because they just kept getting flights canceled and rescheduled
and rebooked and all that. And they couldn't have let
me know that before I left Austin right right, which
I was literally when I left Austin, I thought everything
was fine. An hour later, while I was in the air,
the flights, my flights, connecting flights get got canceled. So
that airport, I mean, the best thing about that that's
(12:42):
got the tram that you can take between the terminals
is great.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
Oh my god, really, because the last time two times
Landry and I, our daughter was on it, I thought
we were going to get whiplash. It was going so
fast and was so jerky, people falling over on each
other and their luggage.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Yeah, I think it was accidentally set too high. Well,
it beats walking from Terminal A to Terminal D, it
definitely does. But even that, you better hold on tight.
I will say this.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
My best friend she lived in Budapest for a while
and I would go visit her, and so I would
fly Austin, Dallas, Dallas, Budapest, and then when we're over there,
we'd go to like a couple of other little countries,
little side trips. So by the time I was flying
back home, I had probably been on ten or twelve
different airplanes, and every single time with that failed my flight.
(13:31):
My last leg of my flight from Dallas to Austin
delayed every single time, sometimes by hours.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Yeah, thankfully we're getting more and more non stops in Austin, Yeah,
you know more.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Yeah, we artists depending on Dallas. We had to go
through solid.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Yeah, aren't you going to Dallas this weekend? I am,
I am.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
I've got a Monday morning meeting. And so my wife
and I were like, oh, let's make kind of a
little Texas staycation out of it. Which, boy is she
taking that to heart? We got I'd gotten noticed on
my calendar of a couple of dinner reservations that are
not cheap. Uh, and so we're just gonna stay near
(14:11):
downtown McKinny, like, which is actually where we met many
many many years ago, almost thirty years ago, if you
think about it. Uh, so that'll be fun and and yeah,
we're gonna get and it just it was a reminder
like it's it's not it'll be nice just to get
away from home, because if we're home and anybody lost things,
my wife is only going to be thinking about things
(14:33):
to do around the house. So at least there's that
factor of kind of a Texas staycation. But what what
I was kind of reminded of is, and I've lived
in Dallas three different times and promost lived there three
different times. There's not much to do except eat, drink
and chop. Yeah, there's just not much to do there.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
No major sports. But it's not that time, right time
a year for all that.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Yeah, we're gonna go to a Rangers game, which is
a lot better now because it's covered. You're not sitting
up the heat in Arlington. But it is world class
eating shopping and they take it very seriously. It means
it's just super expensive.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Yeah, but you're right, there's not a whole lot go
to six Flags. So they have this.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Picture, just send air in a text that go, hey,
I got tickets for us to go to six Flags.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
But this little getaway is going to get out of hand.
It turned into just sort of a spontaneous thing that
it's going to cost me.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
She's super planning, looking up with old friends or something.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
No, just the eating and shopping. Yeah, it's gonna be
a lot. Are you an Airbnb person or a hotel person?
Hotel I like hotels because we were like yeah yeah,
because we were like, you know, one plan to not
be spending too much time running around shopping is to
hang by the pool.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Yeah. There, So I got a hotel with a nice pool, and.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
So you're paying hotel prices for cocktails. Yeah, yeah, pretty much.
I know, I know, I guess she and I. She
likes hotels like I don't know. I've never done. She
and I've never done the airbnb thing with just the
two of us on a trip.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
The hotel, you get the pool, you get room service,
you get the spa for massages.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
It's gonna be a pricey little.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Make your own, make your own, make your own margaritas,
bring your own stuff and just whip up your own margarite.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
Put them in a YETI.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Well, DFW the worst airport in America. All right, congratulations
to you.

walking down the street looking at your phone, you have
(04:45):
an X on your back because you're immediately a target
because you're not paying attention to anything else.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Right, You got to be got to be wise, Yeah,
got to be served. Know what's going on around you?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Well if they if you're sitting there on your phone,
it's also your phone is open and engaged, so if
a snag it, yeah, you don't need to log in.
They can immediately change to the passwords and all that
as opposed to finding one lost where you can't get
into it really right, right.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
I saw a store in the news last night that
a guy got his phone stolen in Florida and they
were able to track it and.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
It ended up in Hong Kong.
Speaker 5 (05:23):
It is a whole Yeah, it's there there, bought or
stolen and then sold for parts, stripped for parts, ended
up all the way over in Hong Kong.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And that crazy.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
It is on a much better news and something cool
after telling you something it's not cool. You know, the
band together Texas Show that's going to be at the
Moody Center on August seventeenth. That's the big Miranda Lambert Show.
Kelly Clarkson is also playing that Parker McCollum, a lot
of big names. The Dell Foundation, Michael Dell's organization, posted
this yesterday. Incredible to see our community coming together for
(05:55):
the Band Together Texas Benefit concert. The Dell Foundation is
proud to be a presenting sponsor, and we're grateful to
have Jean Paul and Eloise de Jorio Peace, Love and
Happiness Foundation co present with us. With this sponsorship, Susan
and I that's Michael's wife, are committing an additional seven
hundred and fifty thousand dollars to flood relief and recovery efforts,
(06:15):
building on the one million we've already put into the
hands of local partners operating on the grounds with affected
communities and families. Huge thanks to all the organizers and
artists who are working to help our neighbors recovering from
the floods. Let's keep supporting each other. Please join us
if you can. That's cool, very cool, that's really cool.
Have you guys, let me ask you this. He said
(06:37):
something in here. Very interesting to me. Putting the money
into the hands of the local partners operating on the
ground with affected communities and family. Have people turned on
the Red Cross? That's what I'm saying. They used to
be give to the Red Cross, but now this is
not the first big company to really go directly to
(06:58):
the local people.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
Yeah, right, uh yeah, people don't trust that well, the
big A lot of the you know, it's terrible if
you're running a good, clean organization, but a lot of
those have just gotten fat on bureaucracy, and a lot
of that money doesn't go to where you think it does.
It goes to administration and the reb on the rub
on Red Cross is this.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Was a while back, maybe they've changed things.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Was that when a disaster happened, they just used an
opportunity to collect money in general fundraise. It wasn't going
right to that disaster, right, They've got that father people.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I saw read a story yesterday about the Palisades fire
in California. No one's gotten any relief yet. Where did
the money. There's one hundred million of the concert Oh
and there's been no distribution, right exactly.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Yeah, that's a big question mark and who do you
decide to give it to? That's just that's an odd situation, right.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
They said they gave it to nonprofits, they passed it
out amongst nonprofits, and then they decide what to.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Do with it. But I don't know, it's weird.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
It's it sucks if that slows people down from giving
if they can, right, But I guarantee you Jean Paul
de Jorio and his organization at Michael Dale's Foundation, they
vetted where they vetted where that money is going to go,
that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Streaming on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
This is the JB and Sandy Show on Austin's eighty
station one oh three point one. Christ's got the story
we love in just a moment of high today going
to be ninety seven.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
We talked about it yesterday.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
We're not expecting any one hundred degree days, which is
just crazy in.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
The month of August. That's insane.
Speaker 6 (08:38):
Yeah, very Let's just get killed in September, which right,
first log Horn Football game one hundred and nine, Yeah right, yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
I used to say that worked to our advantage depending
on who we were playing. But uh, you know, they practice.
I don't even think they practice outdoors anymore do they.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yeah, I think they're all under that bubble. Yeah, right
off if by thirty five when they're building a new
one or something like that. But my gush, I think
the Longhorns open up with Ohio State this year.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
They do their first game an away games huge.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
They won the National championship years year and it's in Columbus.
And if you go to that game, let me warn you.
I've been to a longboard back in the bench young days.
The National Championship year. I went to Columbus for a
game and be ready to fight is all. Be on guard.
Those people are savages and the spright in the world.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
Yeah, you'd be. We were walking out leaving the game.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I was walking out with my friend Scott, and people
would like be walking towards you, and like three feet
in front of you, they'd spit on the sidewalk right
in front of you. I said to Scott, I said, Scott,
get ready because if someone spits on me, it were going.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
It is on.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
I went to the game here, I think it was
prior to that one. I went to one here and
it was a night game. I never saw more fights
in my life. Yeah, oh yeah, it was crazy. It
was like being on Bourbon Street at three am.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
You know, and then Columbus, Ohio that's the only game
in town that night, you know what I mean. It's
not like Austin, where you can do five million other
things in and around Austin.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
In Columbus, Ohio, that's it everybody. Yeah, in the Bonus too.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
I think if you go to that game, and let's
say you're an average to maybe a little large person,
you're gonna feel really skinny out there.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Yeah. I've always wanted to do this. I've never had
the nerve like go to a game like that. See
somebody with an Ohio State sweatshirt on or jacket or whatever,
go hey, what year did you graduate?
Speaker 6 (10:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
You know, none of them graduated from me. They're just
you know what I mean, either just fans. That's all
right too, I guess whatever the stories.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
We love Reportando la Velissima.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yosa, Hey, before you report the news. That is one
of our listeners, mister Felix yep. And he left a
book for you somewhere that's signed by Kelly Slater, and
he keeps sending me text messages to remind you to
go pick up the book.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Do you know anything about this, Yes, okay, all right.
He keeps thank you, Felix, Sorry, wants to make sure
you get it right. He left an autographed book I
guess written by Kelly Slater. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
He's a world champion, sir for JB. Somewhere, you guys
sorted out, Trista, what's the story?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
All right?
Speaker 5 (11:41):
So all I can say is sorry about your airport luck.
Texans DFW Airport ranked the most stressful major US airport
per market Watch Guides. Here are some of the stats
that gave him the number one spot. Twenty seven percent
of the flights are delayed, two percent are canceled, thirty
five plus minute TSA, weight lines, an average four hundred
(12:03):
and fifteen dollars, ticket long terminals, and lost luggage all
add to the high ranking of DFW being the worst.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Yeah. I just went through it last week. Yeah, going
to Nebraska and I left what day?
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Did I leave? On Saturday? And on Saturday and didn't
get to Omaha until Monday.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yeah, because they just kept getting flights canceled and rescheduled
and rebooked and all that. And they couldn't have let
me know that before I left Austin right right, which
I was literally when I left Austin, I thought everything
was fine. An hour later, while I was in the air,
the flights, my flights, connecting flights get got canceled. So
that airport, I mean, the best thing about that that's
(12:42):
got the tram that you can take between the terminals
is great.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
Oh my god, really, because the last time two times
Landry and I, our daughter was on it, I thought
we were going to get whiplash. It was going so
fast and was so jerky, people falling over on each
other and their luggage.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Yeah, I think it was accidentally set too high. Well,
it beats walking from Terminal A to Terminal D, it
definitely does. But even that, you better hold on tight.
I will say this.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
My best friend she lived in Budapest for a while
and I would go visit her, and so I would
fly Austin, Dallas, Dallas, Budapest, and then when we're over there,
we'd go to like a couple of other little countries,
little side trips. So by the time I was flying
back home, I had probably been on ten or twelve
different airplanes, and every single time with that failed my flight.
(13:31):
My last leg of my flight from Dallas to Austin
delayed every single time, sometimes by hours.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Yeah, thankfully we're getting more and more non stops in Austin, Yeah,
you know more.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Yeah, we artists depending on Dallas. We had to go
through solid.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Yeah, aren't you going to Dallas this weekend? I am,
I am.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
I've got a Monday morning meeting. And so my wife
and I were like, oh, let's make kind of a
little Texas staycation out of it. Which, boy is she
taking that to heart? We got I'd gotten noticed on
my calendar of a couple of dinner reservations that are
not cheap. Uh, and so we're just gonna stay near
(14:11):
downtown McKinny, like, which is actually where we met many
many many years ago, almost thirty years ago, if you
think about it. Uh, so that'll be fun and and yeah,
we're gonna get and it just it was a reminder
like it's it's not it'll be nice just to get
away from home, because if we're home and anybody lost things,
my wife is only going to be thinking about things
(14:33):
to do around the house. So at least there's that
factor of kind of a Texas staycation. But what what
I was kind of reminded of is, and I've lived
in Dallas three different times and promost lived there three
different times. There's not much to do except eat, drink
and chop. Yeah, there's just not much to do there.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
No major sports. But it's not that time, right time
a year for all that.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Yeah, we're gonna go to a Rangers game, which is
a lot better now because it's covered. You're not sitting
up the heat in Arlington. But it is world class
eating shopping and they take it very seriously. It means
it's just super expensive.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Yeah, but you're right, there's not a whole lot go
to six Flags. So they have this.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Picture, just send air in a text that go, hey,
I got tickets for us to go to six Flags.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
But this little getaway is going to get out of hand.
It turned into just sort of a spontaneous thing that
it's going to cost me.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
She's super planning, looking up with old friends or something.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
No, just the eating and shopping. Yeah, it's gonna be
a lot. Are you an Airbnb person or a hotel person?
Hotel I like hotels because we were like yeah yeah,
because we were like, you know, one plan to not
be spending too much time running around shopping is to
hang by the pool.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Yeah. There, So I got a hotel with a nice pool, and.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
So you're paying hotel prices for cocktails. Yeah, yeah, pretty much.
I know, I know, I guess she and I. She
likes hotels like I don't know. I've never done. She
and I've never done the airbnb thing with just the
two of us on a trip.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
The hotel, you get the pool, you get room service,
you get the spa for massages.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
It's gonna be a pricey little.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Make your own, make your own, make your own margaritas,
bring your own stuff and just whip up your own margarite.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
Put them in a YETI.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Well, DFW the worst airport in America. All right, congratulations
to you.
