Austin or stream on the iHeartRadio app Enjoy the show.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
What's first thing made you? Lamb?

Speaker 3 (00:11):
I can't walk the walk or talk the talk. But
if you need someone to snack the snack, I'm your girl.
You're the one you can snack it up at the
best of them. Boy, it sucks when the house doesn't
have any snacks. Oh god, I know. I sometimes hate
it that. Most of the time we're like an ingredient's household,
where we have the things to make things to eat.
Then nothing is actually ready to eat.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Nothing.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
That nothing we just grab yeah right for nothing? Good?
I mean, grab some lettuce.

Speaker 4 (00:39):
How long is the going to sit in the fridge
before you make the salad? I noticed two heads of
lettuce have already gone back.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
I know. I bought the two heads of lettuce for
the salami. Then I was gone for four days, three days.
Now the lettuce is bad. The salami is still good.
I don't want to go to the grocery store just
to get the lettuce.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
If I go get it, will you make it?

Speaker 3 (00:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Tonight? Yeah, this is what's it called again?

Speaker 3 (01:03):
This is the la scala sounds. Also, some people notice
the Kardashian salad.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
It is good.

Speaker 3 (01:11):
You have to cut the salami up though, I'll do
everything else.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
I'll cut salami, okay, I'll cut salami in.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
I'll cut the cheese.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
Okay, I won't cut the cheese. Don't do that because
I'm not one hundred percent sure what your a version
of that is.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
Coming up on the show today, Dak's shepherd Kristen Bell
take it a little bit of heat because of their
love language, and boy, can we relate to this.

Speaker 3 (01:32):
I was like, Sandy, these are our people.

Speaker 4 (01:34):
We could be friends with them. We totally could stay
with us. That's coming up in just a little bit.
And Trisia's got the story we love next one.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
Three point one.

Speaker 4 (01:42):
We strive for class around here on the Sandy Show.
Trisa's got a toilet paper story coming up in just
a moment.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
Another really important stuff out there. You can get that
information everywhere. No one's going to tell you about a
toilet paper roll except here.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
By the way, The Wizard of Oz topped the list
for the Best Witch Movies. Number one, Tricia, your favorite
hocus Pocus h love it.

Speaker 3 (02:02):
Hocus Pocus three is coming.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Out number six on the list.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Ah should be higher, you think, so I do the
stories we love. Six years ago, Sharman, the toilet paper company,
debuted a hilariously large roll of toilet paper and they
called it their forever role. So for perspective, a regular
role of Sharman has up to seventy seven sheets. The
forever role of Sharman has seventeen hundred sheets.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
So you know when you go into a public restroom
the little bin that the toilet paper roll is up
inside of, you know, you got to get it out.
So that's maybe twice the size of a normal role
you'd have at your house. The forever roll is like
ten times that size. It's I would say, two feet across. Wow,
it's gigantic, and you can buy it. I don't know

(02:53):
how in the world you would dispense it in your house.

Speaker 4 (02:56):
The modern American household is not prepared for a toilet
role of toilet paper that large.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
No, it's way too big to fit on a normal dispense.
So you got to get a special holder, which takes
up like a whole wall next to the toilet. But
I think It's hilarious. Can you imagine if you went
to somebody's house and you had to go to the
bathroom and you walked in and there's this two foot
tall roll of toilet paper on the wall. I don't
know they did it as a joke, but I bet

(03:22):
you people, especially dudes, I bet, are going to buy
these up and mount them on their walls in their bauck.

Speaker 4 (03:29):
No no, no, guys won't mount them. They'll just set
them on the floor next to the toilet. They're they're
not going to do that. They're not going to take
the time to mount it. Or fraternity house 'll have these.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
Oh, fraternity houses. They were kind of supposed to be
a joke, but like people really are into them. They
are now available nationwide online and in stores Walmart, Target, Amazon.
Each roll is supposed to last two people up to
a month, and you can get a three pack for
around thirty to thirty five bucks. They're not expensive.

Speaker 4 (03:57):
Young vandals across America where we Walmarts and Targets for
their Halloween mischievous right for their tomfoolery.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Tom foolery has been called tom fillery. Nobody can use
it for twenty four hours that's right.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
So you know what I remember as a kid, like
being afraid to buy eggs in toilet paper because I
thought the people at the store knew what we were
gonna be doing with Oh, you know what I mean,
They're gonna call They're gonna call my mom and tell.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Him Sandy was in here buying toilet paper and eggs.
You may want to keep an eye on him.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
That's funny. Those were the days, weren't they, Sandy.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
They were.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
Now it's all organized and people they let them know
they're gonna tpee their house and had.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
To be super super careful because of the ring door bell.

Speaker 4 (04:39):
Yeah, that is the story. We love and we've got
more coming up. This is the Sandy Show, one three
point one Austin. Honestly, I don't know anything about Dax
Shepherd and Kristen Bell. I couldn't name one movie, TV show,
nothing that they do.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
Kristen Bell is you would recognize her face. She's in
a I've definitely been in some movies. She has a
cute little a little show I think on Netflix called
Nobody Wants This. It's great. Dax Shepherd you would recognize
him too, but I think he is a pretty famous podcast.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
Oh yeah, I know the name from the podcast. I
don't know the name of the podcast.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
I don't either.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
I'm looking at a photograph of Kristen Bell.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
But she was the voice in Frozen, one of the
voices in Frozen. You've heard her a million times. Oh
she is cutem Okay, But she's married to this dak Shepherd. Yeah, yes, yes,
and they're taking some heat online.

Speaker 4 (05:31):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
So it's their twelfth anniversary. And she posted a picture
of them hugging, and the caption she put underneath it
was happy twelfth wedding anniversary to the man who once
said to me, I would never kill you. A lot
of men have killed their wives at a certain point,
even though I'm heavily incentivized to kill you. I never would,
was his response. I obviously it's an inside joke with them,

(05:56):
but their sense of humor very on par with our
sense of humor. I think we totally could be friends
with them. But then somebody was all made this type
of relationship never find me. People took it all seriously
and made it not funny. It wasn't for you, it
was for each other, right, right, I mean sixteen million followers?

Speaker 4 (06:14):
Yeah, we we we that's our love language. We shoot
each other the finger before we say good night, good night,
shoot the finger. Sometimes I wonder if you forget because
I don't I do it first.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
No, you definitely keep it going.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Yes, would you do it if I didn't?

Speaker 3 (06:30):
Oh, like if I But I don't ever come into
your room to tell you good night like you do
to me. But if ever I did, I feel certain
I would remember to shoot the finger at you.

Speaker 4 (06:38):
Have you put it all together that i'd normally come
in to say good about nine o'clock.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
Nine o'clock. Yeah, the other day you did it at
like eight, and I was like, whoa, whoa, it's happening.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 4 (06:47):
I just want to be done with you for the day.
There's our love language there. It is right there, just
like Dak Shepherd. Yeah, and Kristen Bell. Could definitely be
friends with them. Can't be friends with the smoopy movies?

Speaker 2 (07:00):

What do you always say? A tail?

Speaker 3 (07:31):
The tail as old as time, shooting the finger at
each other before they go to bed.

Speaker 4 (07:35):
That's the memory our daughter will have of her parents.

Speaker 3 (07:40):

Speaker 2 (09:02):
Oh, I'm doing it?

Speaker 3 (09:03):
Are you look at me? And I had a heart
attack for a second.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
Uh okay, Tricia care or don't care to know? What
is easily the most studied TV show or movie of
all time?

Speaker 3 (09:19):
Yes? Okay, can I guess? I do want to add
never in a bazillion years?

Speaker 4 (09:23):
Oh? Oh I want?

Speaker 3 (09:24):
Okay, then I care.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
Lord a study and found that there have been more
than two hundred academic papers published on Buffy the Vampire Slayer,
which made it the most studied TV show or a
movie after that. Alien comes in second with about ninety
papers written.

Speaker 3 (09:45):
Okay, I am adding Buffy the Vampire Slayer to my
to watch list.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
Yeah, I can't believe the ever watched it.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
No, I might have dabbled back in the day.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Yeah that quite get there.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yeah I didn't quite get there, But now I am.
I mean now I need to know why it's so interesting?

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Just a care or do not care to know something
interesting about magic tricks?

Speaker 4 (10:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (10:07):
I always care about magic things. Absolutely.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
There's no copyright or patent protection on magic tricks. If
a magician invents a trick, anyone can use it. You
just have to figure out how it's done, all right.
But there's an unwritten code against with magicians that most
magicians refuse to use other magicians.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
Tricks, like a code of honor, of honor. Yeah, it's well,
at some point that code went by the wayside when
it came to the sawing the lady.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
Yeah yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
But when you're making like the guys on America's Got Talent,
they making cards show up in your brazier or.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Show up inside an uncut lemon? Yeah, what assigned card
in an uncut lemon? How do they do that?

Speaker 2 (10:56):
Trick?

Speaker 3 (10:57):
I need I know? It blows my mind.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
Okay, finally, Tricia care or don't care to know?

Speaker 4 (11:04):
About a caterpillar with it and it's only defense against
bad guys.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
I mean, I feel like it's gonna be gross and
totally like oo me out. I mean, I guess I care.

Speaker 4 (11:15):
It's kind of like the skunk. All he's got is
his stink to keep people away. Yeah, so does This
caterpillar called the tobacco hornworm uses its bad breath, oh,
to scare off predators. It eats tobacco leaves and that
causes its bad smoker's breath.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
That's how he grows.

Speaker 4 (11:35):
He just breathes on him and there's hofs on him.
So repulsed they will not make the effort to challenge him.
That's nasty. Hey, I'm gonna look him up. A tobacco hornworm.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
Hornworm one word. I'm gonna bet you. I don't.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
I haven't looked him up, but I bet he's not attractive.
I bet he's not as ugly as this this hairless
mole rat.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
He's not disgusting. He's a delightful Oh really yeah? Two
four got ten legs, got some little white stripes on him.
I mean, I'm not mad at them.

Speaker 4 (12:18):
The guys and gals at the Topical Fruit did another
round up of ten things that happened ten years ago
this week. Here are a few of them. All you
back to the future people, stay with us. This is
pretty interesting. It was ten years ago this week that
teal pumpkins took off. I remember this. The teal patent
project launched, and you know what it was. You put

(12:40):
a teal pumpkin on your porch. It means you're handing
out non food items for tricker treaters with allergies, which is.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Very nice, very nice, very very nice. Hooray.

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Oh look at those wonderful people with their their teal pumpkin.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
You know what I would do both that way, everybody
gets a little bit of everything.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
It was also ten years ago this week. Do you
remember YouTube read.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
No, it's not a big YouTuber.

Speaker 4 (13:06):
It let you watch videos without pop up ads for
ten bucks a month. They eventually renamed it to YouTube Premium,
which I had for a while and I got rid
of it because it's like, you know what, You can
skip these ads after like eight seconds or something. Yeah, so, boy,
if you're making an ad for YouTube, make sure you
get your message out in the first five seconds immediately right.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
Listen to the Sandy Show that's all you do. That's
all you do.

Speaker 3 (13:30):
You say.

Speaker 4 (13:33):
Get back right, You gotta just say something. Go now skip,
That's what you do. Okay. The question is Nightboarton. Is
Nightmare Before Christmas a Halloween movie?

Speaker 2 (13:43):
Has been a debate forever.

Speaker 4 (13:45):
Some thought it was more of a Christmas movie, and
ten years ago this week the director stepped in and said, yes,
it's a Halloween movie. Tim Burton was not the director,
by the way. It was based off a pone one
he wrote and he produced, but the director was Henry Selik,
who also directed Caroline and James and the Giant Peach.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
Coraline and James and James and the Giant Peach. My
most favorite book as a child. I bet you I
read that book by Waldsdahl fifty times.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
I can't remember a single book I read this.

Speaker 4 (14:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:20):
Also Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. You read it, oh,
over and over and over and over and over. And
Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator over and over and over.
