We actually went to Jack Allens and see.

can you believe our fortieth high school reunions coming up

Speaker 1 (00:23):
My first?
Speaker 3 (00:24):
JB said thirty. I said thirty, and I believed it.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Yeah, I think it's forty right, which made just it's
hard to believe. And I I have never I've not
gone to a single high school reunion. H oh really no,
I never have. I don't stay in touch with any
of them. The one guy that I did stay in
(00:48):
touch with, some AGD went and died, and so that
was my only connection to school the high school. Then
I had my friend Jody, but I don't really talk
to her much anymore. So yeah, I've just I've just
never gone and done it. But Trisa Boycey loves attending
that Austin high reunion.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
I will tell you this, I've gone to every one
of my high school reunions. The reason is because I
still go with my girls. That we hung out with
in high school. The five of us that were always
together in high school. All five of us have gone
to every single reunion together. That's what makes it fun.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
You guys are all still pretty tight.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Oh yeah, I just talked to literally every one of
them today, And so let me ask you this.
Speaker 5 (01:27):
So you've got these five friends from high school, you've
all remained close friends, you all stay in touch, and
when you go to the reunion, do you just talk
to those four or five people.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
No, we do not. We stay close to each other.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
But really the consensus is, oh my god, the five
of you are still so close.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Like it's just very strong.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
And still so nerdy.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Yeah or not. We weren't the cool ones, though. I'll
tell you that.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
If they even recognize you without your trumpet.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Without my big hat on with the plumes sticking out
the top of.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
It, and can recognize you without that.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
They recognized me, don't worry. They recognized it. I was
not the super cool kid, click, but I wasn't like
the nerd outcast, the guys, the people who went and
smoked in the parking lot.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Click.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
I was kind of in the middle and friends with everybody.
Speaker 5 (02:22):
I think at the reunions or maybe at a homecoming
football game. They should get alumni at least past the
twenty year mark that were in the band to go
back out there and perform.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
They do that at ut Yeah, they did at Ute.
I was at the basketball game.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Were they any good? So the high school ones, like
most of them probably quit? Yeah? Yeah, I want it
to be bad.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
I haven't played my trumpet except just to screw around with.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
It since I graduated.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
In fact, I protested as a senior at our graduation.
Our band director at the time tried to make the
senior sit with the band to play as the band,
and I was like, I'm not doing that. I'm going
to go sit in the audience. Like so, I haven't
even played since graduation.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
That's that's a good thing you did. That was crappy
of the band.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
I was super crappy.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
I was the only one who did it and the
other my girls were like, why did we not do
that with you?
Speaker 3 (03:14):
I was like, I don't know, but that was nonsense.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Well, there was an interesting poll that asked about fifty
different high school experiences to see how common they are,
and I thought it'd be fun to just kind of
kick them around a little bit and if you had
a funny story about it or whatever, just to throw
it in there. So here's the ten most common high
school experiences. Number ten, had a boyfriend or a girlfriend.
(03:38):
Sixty four percent of the people polled said yes, they
did have a boyfriend or a girlfriend. Jamy, I know
you had a girlfriend in high school, didn't you?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
In high school?
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I had?
Speaker 3 (03:50):
I had two? Yeah, yeah, I had. Well, I switched schools.
Speaker 5 (03:55):
I went from Georgetown to Westwood and then, you know,
I didn't switch just because I moved because the Georgetown
chick actually broke up with me and I was just
so happy to move.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
The timing was great.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
So and then I and I dated a girl in
my senior year and when I had moved into Austin,
Yeah I had.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I don't even know if they lasted long enough to
be called girlfriends, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
There were a few dates with a lot of guns.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
With a lot of girls, and never really had like
a girlfriend and girlfriend. Yeah, you know what I mean.
They wised up to me pretty quick. They figured you out,
figured me out. And Tricia, did you have a like
a you didn't really have a boyfriend, boyfriend?
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Right, But you were in love with.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
My god Jeff Lights, Jeff Lights.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
I was a freshman and he was a senior, and
I thought I would die if he did not left
me back. He was the first time that I wept
over boy so crazy high school hormones.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
He did not love me during high school, but I did.
I had a boyfriend my senior year.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
He did not go to the same high school that
I did, but proportion of my senior year I had
a boyfriend and I dated him for a couple of years.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
What high school he go to?
Speaker 4 (05:06):
He went to? Oh my god, why can't I think Westwood? No,
not Westwood?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Well, I just know her old boyfriend lives in that area.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
Yeah, no, he did. Where were you you were at
Austin High?
Speaker 4 (05:18):
Was at Austin High. I can't remember what high school
he went to. I knew him from work. My job
at AGV, my very first job I got AMGV. God
I loved that job.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Some other common experiences, I mean, went on a date
was nine. We kind of covered that if you had
a boyfriend or girlfriend. Yeah, but took the sat Or Act.
Sixty six percent of people did. I took the Act.
I never took the SAT. I was in the Midwest.
I was in Nebraska and it was an act thing.
(05:46):
They administered the SAT. I think I only took the SAT.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Do you remember what you got on it?
Speaker 5 (05:52):
I don't remember. It was not great, like nine hundred something. Yeah,
so I don't remember.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Pretty fun last week I have been I've been out
of high school for how long?
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Almost forty years. I took the SAT.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
My whole goal was to get above triple digits, so
I whented it at least be in the four digits.
I thought the highest score you could get on an
SAT was fourteen hundred. I have been proudly telling people
that I got a ten ten on the SAT. Meanwhile,
the highest score is a sixteen hundred.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
We're talking to what we were talking to what I look.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
Like an idiot going around proudly saying I get a
ten ten.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
We were talking to one of Landry's classmates and in
one of her friends, and she had gotten her SAT, like,
what did you get on the SAT? And she got
four and she said I got a fourteen thirty and
Trishia's like in.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
She goes, but I'm retaking it, and I was like, what, why?
Speaker 2 (06:44):
How high does it go and she goes, oh, perfect
is sixteen hundred.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Oh god, I can't even imagine how many people I've
told I got a ten ten.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Radiac.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I took the act, and I think if I think
thirty six was perfect, like the perfect score. The first
time I took it, I got an eight eight and
my only goal. My only goal was to get a twelve,
because that's what you had to get to be eligible
to play college athletics.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
Yeah, were you filling in the answers with a bingo
dobby or something that was?
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Yeah, I mean it was. I was a mess in
high school. I mean I really was just a hot mess,
moving moving along. Another very common high school experience that
sixty eight percent of people say they experience. Kind of
a low number, I would guess. But kissed someone. Yeah,
I did a lot of that.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
A lot of kissing.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Yeah, a lot of kissing. I did enough of that. Yeah,
that's pretty good at it. Here's another one. It's kind
of low. If this been in Texas had been a
higher number. Went to at least one high school football
game sixty.
Speaker 5 (08:01):
Mmm, god, we'd go to them, all right? Yeah? Maybe
not my senior year. I was always working, but Yeah,
that was That was an especially in Georgetown. Yeah, like
that's what you did on Friday night.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
One of Landry's friends from lamp Passas and she's like,
that's what you do.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
What you do on Friday night.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
I was at every single solitary football game because I
was in the band and we marched at every single game.
I never experienced it as a student in the stands right,
always on the field with the band.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
We won one game each of the four years I
was there. Not great.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
That sucks.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Austin I not known for football at that time. That's
still not well, what is it known for? Give us
the time? It was tennis and golf. It was the
rich kids' school. Oh because of Muni or yeah Muni.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Yeah, Terrytown right there, all those kids played Austin, Hi
and Westlake were arch rivals.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Yeah. Now all the rich kids go to the private schools,
right and Austin's tyg got just bunch of dopes.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
I don't. I really have no idea.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Actually, I think that how it was kind of going
that way for a while. I think it's shifted back
to where a lot of the Terrytown families are sending
their kids s Austin Hind.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
That's good US.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Seventy nine of the people pulled said they took a
class they hated. Hated all of mine only. I hated
all of my classes. I couldn't narrow it down to one.
I hated them all. Oh, as evidence with my act
square with.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
You, I didn't enjoy anything in school.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
No, no, I mean unless there were a couple where
the teacher was really hot.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah, you didn't have Franciscan nuns teaching yours. Yeah it man,
take a class you loved. No, I just told you
I hated all of my class.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
Track, yeah, football, track and cross country.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
I like that class.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Yeah, football and wrestling was fun. Yeah right, here's another one.
This is kind of unusual for me. Had a specific
friend group or click man. I was kind of a
floater as a loner. Really, I mean I just kind
of went from one click to the other. Yeah, you're
kind of friends with everyone. Yeah that's kind of what
I was. Yeah. Yeah, what about you, JB.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yeah it was it was very similar.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
Like you know, I like, after my freshman year, I
stopped playing football because I was so skinny and focused
on track and cross country. But I played with all
those guys through junior high in ninth grade, so we
were friends.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
And then a lot of those guys run track.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
There's there's a lot of there's a big crossover between
football and track with the sprinters and hurdlers and all
that stuff. But no, and then and then I had
car buddies too.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yeah, we had that other outlet.
Speaker 5 (11:04):
Yeah, we were car geeks so in that but it
was mostly you know, my my track and cross country peeps.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Did you park your car with all what we used
to call them the motorheads in the back row that
would back their cars and trucks into the thing and
then hang out before school.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
No, but in Georgetown, the thing was h the way
the parking lot was. There was like a big dirt
riser on the back end, and all the all the
country kids with their lifted trucks they got they so
they were really cool trucks. They were all you know,
(11:40):
like dad's hand me downs from the seventies, yeah, in
the early eighties. And they would just sort of take
them like they'd all be lined up on top of
the hill like that's cool, and then when it rains
they'd all spin around throw mud on it.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
The final one, final thing here on this most common
high school experiences. Eighty seven percent of the people pulled
when they asked if they had a crush on someone
in high school said yes, eighty seven.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Yeah, I think yeah, I'm not surprised that numbers high.
What's that I said, refer back to my story about
Jeff Lights, Yeah, right right exactly. Yeah, where's he today?
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I can actually tell you because I spoke with them,
kept in contact with them over the years.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
He is in the Army.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
He is a high school band director at a high
school in New bron Fules And he has always been
in what is it, the National Guard? National Guard, so
he comes into Camp Maybury a lot. He's the band
director for one of the National Guard units too, So yeah,
he ended up being a band director.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
He was in band when I was in band.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
So band guy.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
The epitome of a marine. See a picture of it,
the army or marine?
Speaker 4 (12:51):
I mean, sorry, army really buzz cut the fatigue still
in shape guy?
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Yeah, yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Tbe. Who is your high school crush? Do you have one?
Speaker 5 (13:01):
I'm sure I just bounced around. I just want you
liked them all?
Speaker 1 (13:04):
I liked them?
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Stick her out more coming up on Austin's eighties station
one O three point. Some of these AI companies are
starting to get exposed, and one got exposed really really bad,
and it's really really fun.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
It's hilarious.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
All right. So this is an English company, right, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
It's a it's a London based company. It's called builder
dot AI. Microsoft invested in this company. It was once
spellued at like one and a half billion dollars, but
they went bankrupt recently because it was revealed that its
AI at building service was actually just seven hundred human
engineers in India.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
In the back room, answer this frantically answering question.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
So you type, you type in give me a brief
history of the of the War of eighteen twelve.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
When there's some Indian dude looking up the answer.
Speaker 4 (14:02):
And type, Oh my god, I think that's hilarious.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
But they they tricked everyone, they did.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
I mean, they tricked my testing half a billion dollars
in it.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Yeah, wow, it's hysterical.
Speaker 5 (14:21):
Right.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Have you guys ever seen the like videos and stuff
of click farms?
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Uh no, I feel like I've heard of it, but
I can't remember what it was.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
So a click farm is where you can buy people
to like your social media posts, okay, and it's just
a big office full of people sitting at computers, and
as soon as an order comes in, they all go
to your Facebook page and they click oh yep, and
it's and it's you can buy followers as well. Yeah,
(14:56):
but they say that's in the long run, it's really
a bad thing to do. I mean it's one, it's
dishonest for starters, but a lot of people do it
to really up their social media presence.
Speaker 5 (15:08):
If you see someone here's the tailtale sign for that
is if they have a huge following, all right, you go,
oh wow, look at all those followers. Then go look
at recent posts and see how many they have? How
many yeah, how many followers have? How many are they
getting on a regular post? And if it's tiny number,
like I just I won't go into too many details,
(15:33):
but there were I was considering investing in this guy's product.
It was it was health food related, and I like,
guys got this massive following. And then I started looking
at individual posts and it'd be like twenty five likes, yeah,
fifteen likes.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
I go, this, this doesn't add up. This is wrong, right.
I think he bought all those followers to look big, So.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
You didn't give them the money, right now?
Speaker 3 (16:00):
That was that was one of many red flags.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
You can also look at the followers that they have
and if if you're a dude in Austin, Texas and
a lot of your followers have Indian surnames, then chances
are they bought those followers, you know what I mean.
It's just it's where they are, the people that work there,
(16:24):
that's that's where they live. It's in India. So, but
that's really funny about the AI. Just a bunch of dudes.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Can you manage the panic when the question comes in?
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Just the frenzy of everybody googling at one time. It's
like trivia night at the bar, and they get bonus
on who comes up with the answers the quickest.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Is there any type of legal issues with It's got
to be some fraud involved.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
They also were making up their numbers and audit should
they light out their sales?
Speaker 3 (17:00):
So I'm sure they're in all kinds of trouble.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Yeah, that's very funny. So another there's gonna be I
don't know. I think we talked about it briefly the
other day. I'm just AI and subscriptions out. I'm like,
I don't even.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Want to down.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Yeah, give us ose.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
It just all rolls is rolling out and hitting us
too fast.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
And then everyone's trying to keep up with everyone else
with new features and new things.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Like I just learned this way, right.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
I can't learn more stuff?
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Can you slow down a little bit?
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Or can we go back to the one that I'm
used to until I'm ready to learn the new one?
But it's a lot, Yeah, but it didn't go it anywhere,
you know, It's like rock.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
And roll they're talking about there.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
I saw some guy talking about the use of AI
and schools and how it's gonna be gotten out of control.
But they're talking about going back to old school pen
and paper and blue books.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
Okay, I school that too, And listen to this. I
just read this article. I forgot to bring it up
with y'all. Two high school students at round Rock High
School I believe we're at a high school in round
Rock just came up with their own app to help
teachers look at hand written papers to determine if a
I was used, because they yeah, if you pull it up,
(18:17):
like they can easily scan the text if it's a
tight But I was like, those must be the most
hated kids in school, totally routed everybody out and helping
the teachers.
Speaker 5 (18:29):
They're the lars Ulric of their school. Lars Ulric from
Metallica was one to shut down Napster, ruined it for
all of us.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Those kids are grubb to be rich, but they're not
gonna have any friends.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
They're gonna have to move to Tennessee or something. So
why'd you move to Nashville? WHOA the whole school? They
were probably kids that were doing the work.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Though. We got tired of Yeah, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Like a little ri venge app. They came up with, Yeah,
that's very funny.
