Speaker 1 (00:00):
Thanks for being here for the podcast edition of The
JB and Sandy Show. We need a favor from you guys.
Would you guys mind using the talkback feature on the
iHeartRadio app and recording something that sounds like this from
the Lester Holt Studios. Here's Tricia Delicia. We'll play it
every morning just before the story. We'd love so do it.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Thanks. Here's today's podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
It's the JV and Sandy Show on Austin's ADES station.
What three point one. I don't know the exact numbers
on how much Austin has grown in the last decade,
but I know it's a lot. A lot of people
have moved here in the last ten fifteen. I don't
know twenty years. I don't know how much the population
has gone up that I think a lot is safe
to say.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
But is it on the decline? Is it? Or is
it still going up and up and up. JV's got
the numbers.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Well, it's still going up, but significantly less. In twenty
twenty four compared to twenty twenty three. Yeah, twenty twenty three,
Austin gained thirteen thousand, nine one hundred and eighty people.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Oh wait, I'm sorry that doesn't sound like much.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
No, no, no, that's it's in twenty In twenty twenty three,
it was twenty two thousand, two hundred and nineteen, and
then in twenty twenty four it was thirteen thousand, nine
hundred and eighty down thirty seven percent. That's good thirty
percent seven percent drop and new people coming in. That's
(01:26):
that's a big decrease. And I did I just made
a cool little graphic here.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Oh you did with the class.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
But I think a lot of the people, I think
there's still more people moving here, but they're just moving
to the suburbs as well.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Oh yeah, yeah, because yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Mean you're kind of a lot of people priced out
in Austin.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
And I think it's even starting to saturate in Georgetown,
Cedar Park, Leander. Now it's going Liberty Hill farther south.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Yeah, west, yeah, or its Marble Falls and all that.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Yeah, it's just really really spreading out. But that's interesting.
I wonder if people are getting priced out. I wonder
if the hype is disappearing. People are like, eh, those
summers are not worth it.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Yeah, I think a lot of that happens.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
I did see a story recently that the age median
age for first time home buyers in Austin is like
late thirties, early forties because they can't afford before that.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
I mean, I have my neighborhood is full of renters
where there's like four twenty somethings living together.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Just good bye.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
We had it too, yeah, and it's we you know,
we bought our first house when I was thirty, you know,
and it was it was every stretch of penny we had.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
But it was doable. Yeah, it was. It was manageable. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
I don't know, man, it's even just like a my
daughters twenty three. I look at the price of condos
in Austin and they don't even start getting appealing until
you're at almost four hundred thousand.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Yep, I'm not kidding. It makes no sense. Can we
go ahead and say this? Can we?
Speaker 1 (03:14):
You know, Austin forever was known as a college town.
This ain't a college town anymore.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
Do you think it's more of a techie town now?
And we have a big college here too, yes.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
But I mean when you think when I think college town,
I think college station.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
That's a college town, yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Because I think if it drives the entire economy, right right, Yes, Lawrence, Kansas.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Is college town exactly, exactly is a college town.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
This is no longer a college town. I mean, there's
a big, giant university here, but it's not a college town.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Same thing's going to happen to San Marcos here soon enough,
if it hasn't already.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
It is beyond being a college town. Yeah, I mean
it's all just in fact.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
I just read that there's rumors of a like we've
all heard about the mega region between Austin and San
Antonio just all being one big like Dallas Fort Worth, right,
and that the talks of bringing a pro sports team,
an NFL team to the to the region, so it'd
be like a San Antonio, Austin and everything in between
(04:19):
pro football.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Team, which that would be amazing. That would be really cool.
That would be really really cool. Fred Macombs couldn't get
it done. I don't.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
I think we can get it done. That's why I
would agree with that one hundred percent. I don't think
the University of Texas be real crazy about that unless
unless Elon wants one. He'll get it done.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Yeah, he just throw all the money at it.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
But also just I mean immediately, I'm like, oh my god,
it's going to be even more trafficky going that way now,
like Sandy and night three times now coming home from
downtown at like I don't know, six thirty seven, not
really necessarily that late. It's taken us like forty five
minutes to get home, forty five minutes to hour what
it used to take. Yeah, yeah, it's just it's just constant,
(05:07):
and it's just aware out. Manageable is the word, JB.
It's unmanageable.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
I agree. I agree so well.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
The migration Dustin is slowing down right, and I think
it will continue to you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (05:21):
I think, Yeah, I did see that.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
It's funny you brought up university that they are approving
more high rises. West Campus is going to be so
unfamiliar here soon forty story.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Buildings for students for students, so the like university owned
or like privately.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Private, privately owned.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
But part of the article is like, they have so
many plans to build in West Campus that even if
you're not a student, it might be affordable.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
College kids just not gonna you know, what's the word,
not gonna drudge through living in a crappy dorm room,
I know.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
I mean, when's the last you went through West Campus.
Some of these buildings have rooftop pools there, and they've
got cafes on the first floor. It's like it's like
the first nice apartment I had in my mid twenties college. Y.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
It didn't have that.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
I guarantee didn't have that smell, you know what I mean,
there's a certain like smell with the old.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Yeah, I think at Tech.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
I think at Texas Tech they've got a lazy river
on Campus's no, I mean, but that's what it takes
to recruit kids to go to school there, right, I guess.
I mean, it used to be just a hell what
good football team would get them there? Now you gotta
have lazy rivers and high rise apartments and rooftop decks
and hell, we were happy if we had a refrigerator
(06:46):
in the.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
I give my wife so much crap because she lived
at the Castilian, which was the fancy that was like
the fanciest place on campus West Campus, and it's like
a dumping.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
To some of these new places.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Yeah, I don't know what we're gonna do where our
daughter ends up going to college, but I think she
has to tough it out for a year in the
crappiest dorm on campus.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
I think it's just part of your initiation into college
and the dorm and sweet mates and your your meal
card that you go, you know what I mean. I
think that's like part of it. And I feel like
she would love that. I feel like it's too kterie
now to make it nicer than it used to be.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
And they're all getting grub Hub and all that stuff.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
It's a different world, completely different world.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
It's the JB and Sandy Show on Austin's eighties station
what O three point one. Hey, if you want to
win a thousand dollars, be listening at nine o'clock.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
That's your first chance today.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
It's coming up at nine on Austin's eighties station one
oh three point one. All right, everybody mark your calendars
for May the seventh, ACL live at the Moody Theater.
If you would like to go see Sir Tom Jones.
The man is touring. He is coming to Austin if
(08:05):
you're a new listener to the show. Every Friday for
many years we played a Tom Jones song. I think
it was called to Make You Love me. I can't remember.
I know the song, I can't remember the name. And
it was kind of a tradition on the show. And
I just never thought we'd ever see Tom Jones out
on tour, especially coming to Austin playing the acl live
at the Moody Theater.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
He's eighty something years old. Yeah, he's eighty four. I
just looked it up. How impressive is that. Yeah, that's amazing.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
And people forget like Tom Jones in the late sixties,
early seventies, he was like mister panty dropper.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Oh yeah, he was.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
And he has a reputation for something you know, Oh yeah,
what is it, Trisha, I'm not sure what he.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Has a reputation for.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Yeah, you can worry generous with him for things that
males need to attract the ladies.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
How about that.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Flowers and Tom, I think we'd be lying. Tom plagued
that up a little bit.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Yeah too.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Yeah, Oh that's the if that's not true, it's the
greatest thing that could ever happen.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
You guys out there incredibly tight leather pants.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Yeah yeah, he was like if you see some old footage,
like women just screaming like he was a heart throb.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Like Beatles type Elvis type level.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Yeah, so I guess, like, who's that How old is
that core fan? Now if he's eighty four, they're in
their sixties.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Sixties, sixties or seventies and they just want to go
see Tom and relive that.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
That's I do want to go for the one song
for that song to make you make you love me?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
That one, Yes, you got it? Not unusual. You got
to hear that one. That's that's the one you always
think of, you know, the.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Song that we played. I bet you he doesn't. I
bet he doesn't do it in concert. That was an
album cut, that wasn't even one of his big singles.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Now, it was just a goofy thing he did. Right.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
If you want to have some fun, google Tom Jones
package Safe for work barely barely, but yeah, you may
want to do it when no one's in the office.
But Tom would put it out there, you know what
I mean. He would let he sent out the vibe.
(10:31):
Yeah for sure.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
So what is even talking about that about the package?
What's even more impressive, though, is when you notice it
on somebody who's not trying to showcase it. And I
just started to say the night because they Dave Chappelle.
They did a replay of Dave Dave Chappelle hosting SNL
back in January. Sandy, if you remember back in January,
(10:54):
I called you into my room and I was like, oh.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
My god, look at that right.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
He is wearing a suit, nothing tight at all, and
he was like sitting on a stool. I didn't hear
anything the man said because it was just unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
And I never knew for years that girls check that out.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
That wasn't a it's not like I'm checking face but
that it's not like that. This was an instance where
there was no way to not check it out right,
So kudos to the guy who didn't have to showcase.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
John Ham, he's one of those guys too. This is
getting uncomfortable now. Yeah, I feel like I got to
put me out of this rabbit.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Hole at Too Deep Fun on Inspections dress.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
It's really when they're in your face even more than
we needed to know.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Sorry again, Sir Tom Jones is singing his plane.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
And I guess he's going to be in the front
row apparently, Tricia right with.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
My mag my binoculars, that shows are going to be
May the seventh at a see A Live at the
Midy Theater. Tickets at acl live dot com if you
want to go see him. Look, here's my thing. I'm
not gonna pay the money to go see Tom Jones.
As much as I'd say I'd like to go, I'm
not going to buy a ticket.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Someone gave me a ticket, I probably go, would you, Yeah,
somebody gave a ticket. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
And when I'm not going to buy a ticket, love
you Tom, it's probably gonna sell out and.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Have a good time.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Oh, there's not many tickets left. I looked. It's a
high demand.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
How much are they? Let's see, if we the three
of us, wanted to go, they are Garon Hager. You
don't get to go. I'm sorry. I know.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
They had three tickets together to in the mezzanine, one
to the left of the stage, one hundred and seventy
three each.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
I'll pass.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
Yeah, but most of the rest of them are sold out.
I mean it's going fast.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
We all the dirty old ladies are sitting up front
right for sure. That's where Tricia wants to be.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Going one of them, now that we started talking about it.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
