Speaker 1 (00:00):
My name is Sandy.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
This is my beautiful, talented, yet somewhat a Serbic wife
who is the direct descendants of Viking warriors Secretariat. All
the horses Saturday were related to Secretariat, which is very cool.
Yeah it is. No, she is not the descendant of
Viking warriors. I might be you have that in your blood.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
I mean, I don't know. I'm a little feisty.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
You are, you know, a little feisty.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
I've always kind of been interested in the Vikings, but
I just never quite get to where I dig into it,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Plenty of shows, like I know shows, and.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
My friend of mine just loves one of them and
tells me to watch it. And I started watching it,
and I just, I don't know, I couldn't get there.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Interesting it was.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
It seemed like Lord of the Rings. Not Lord of
the Rings. What's the other one when everyone's crazy about
the where they walked.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Everywhere and they walked everywhere?
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Yeah, with the guy, the red wedding and the oh
it seems like Game of Thrones on boats.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Yeah, I mean it could be. But I mean you
loved Game of Throne.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
I did.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
I did, and I never thought i'd get there. I
was not much into that fantasy type of stuff.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
You watched it years after it was a thing. Did
because it was popular, I know, because you're a contrarian
and you won't watch it if everybody else likes it,
which just really you miss out on the good stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
I know you're right. I do.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
I miss out on some of the good stuff. Miss
out on all those big eighties movies.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
And you're you'll be the better for it when you
finally watch them, is all I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Indiana Jones, the first one doesn't hold up to me.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
I mean, it's the og it's so good. I'd be
like saying, does what's the one with pony Boy?
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Outsider? It?
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Just like saying does Outsiders hold up?
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yes? It holds the pony Boy? I didn't got your
pony Boy reference. First. Their first thing today, first thing
that made you laugh today is.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
To all the people that always said I'd never amount
to anything because of my procrastination. Just you wait, that's procrastination.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
It's a killer. It'll kill you. Just do it. Just
do it now.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Some people get addicted, though, to the rush that comes
along with procrastinating, and then all of a sudden, you're
under the gun and you have all this stress about
being so close to the deadline, and that rush is
the only thing that gets them through whatever the activity is.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Oh, that's stressful too.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
That is very, very very Apparently not for our teenage daughter.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
No, she will learn. Though I tried preaching to do
it now method she didn't listen.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
I've been preaching to do it now methods since she
was about six years old. She definitely doesn't listen.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Doesn't sink in. Coming up, Chris's Got the Story We Love. Also,
it's a good time of year to buy certain things.
We'll go through that for you if you're looking to
spend some money, so stick around. Trisa's Got the Story
We Love. Next on Austin's eighties station what O three
point one and streaming at one O three to one
Austin dot Com. It's the Sandy Show on Austin's eighties
(02:56):
station what O three point one and streaming on my iHeartRadio.
App major accomplishment for Blake Shelton, something that only ten
country artists have ever done. Tricia's got it for us
in the Story We Love in just a moment. But
before we get to that, Tricia, you know the met Gala,
met gallo whatever you have?
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah? Do you know how much it cost to put
it on? Individual tickets? Oh? No?
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Uh? Individual tickets to the met Gala costs seventy five
thousand dollars. Oh my god, a table starts at three
hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Oh no, thank you.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
And the met Gala it was a night before last,
I think Saturday night, Monday night, and it was kind
of a dud from what I understand. The theme was
kind of weird. A lot of big names who were
supposed to go decided to skip it. I feel like
it's kind of losing it shine a little bit. But
the big question for me is what do they do inside? Yeah,
(03:55):
the red carpet walking the steps is the big thing.
Then what happens when they get inside?
Speaker 2 (03:59):
It's probably like every other get gala. It's a rubber
chicken meal and a bunch of awards I guess.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
I don't and a bunch of people sitting in clothes
that are not made to sit in that.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
They can't wait to get out of.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
They're not supposed to eat it exactly. The stories, Good morning,
there's your whole studio job. Blake Shelton just celebrated his
thirtieth number one hit in country music.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Hey, sorry, we can't play the song on the podcast,
but it's called Texas. He's got a problem in hitting
this song. What do you mean because the lyric says Amarillo.
All I know, George Strait said it, that's where all
them xes go and all my exes live in Texas.
He doesn't sing Amarillo. He sings Amarillo by morning. He
doesn't mention Amarillo in that song.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
I think he's just talking about Texas. I think you're
getting a little I'm just saying there.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
So there's a fullow on the song.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
I don't know if there is, but it's pretty catchy.
He was interviewed about this song, and he's like, you know,
I hear a lot of songs and and uh though,
he goes, I wake up in the middle of the
night with that with singing it in my head. I'd
wake up in the morning singing it, so I knew
I had to record it. He also said when asked
about being one of only ten people to hit thirty,
he said, thirty is a lot of anything, and it'd
(05:13):
have thirty number one songs as unbelievable. He thinks the
fans in the industry for their support, and he has
a brand new album coming out Friday, called for recreational
use only.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Blake's got a good personality and a good sense of
humor to go along with his singing abilities.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Right, Yeah, is he still with Gwen Stefani.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Yeah, they're married.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Oh they are.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Mary live on a ranch in Oklahoma. I still miss
him on the Voice. I kind of tune in and
out of the Voice now, but when he was on it,
I just loved it. His little bromance that he had
with Adam Levian, who, by the way, Adam Venus back
on the show.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Oh yeah season.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Man, I remember seeing Adam Levine in concert and I
was like, I wasn't a huge Maroon five fan, but
then I watched him and it was great. And that
guy works his butt off on stage. Yeah, I mean,
he's a showman, really good stuff. That's probably why they
got so many hits. Probably so maybe so. All right,
everybody knows that there's always big Memorial Day sales, right,
(06:18):
There's always the big mattress sale from Memorial Day.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Yeah. I don't know the link between Memorial Day and mattresses,
but it's clearly a thing.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Well, there's a lot of things throughout the month of
May that are it's a really good time to buy
them and share some of them with you. A lot
of them fall into the Memorial Day, but they're starting
the sales a little bit earlier. By the way, Memorial
Weekend is the twenty fourth to the twenty sixth. Good
time to buy major appliances, good time to buy mattresses.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
I don't know why.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Maybe people do their spring cleaning and they're like, the
need new mattress.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Also, it's a great time, they say, to buy grills,
outdoor grills and grilling gears.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Getting ready for summer.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Yeah, because a lot of the stuff is on sale,
including the accessories, everything from your meat thermometer to your tongs.
Right now, it's a good time to get it. They
have a lot of clearance sales.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Do you think the lid for a Green Egg is
on sale?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I'll look because I'm about ready to pull a trigger
on that. Mine's been broke for about two years. Yep,
just the lid and they're expensive. Yeah, wasn't it like.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
For the lid?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yeah, it fell off and cracked, and those are ceramic,
and I think everybody would benefit. I think everyone that
eats my delicious barbecue should chip in a few dollars
to get the dome. We'll hit up Mel and deb
and your mom. How that works all the people. If
they want to eat my delicious brisket, they should help.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
I don't think that's how that works.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
If you want to get outdoor furniture, that was a
good time to do it, both indoor and outdoor. By
the way, a lot of that stuff is going on sale,
large pieces like sofas, dining sets, patio furniture. And I'll
tell you this much. We bought some outdoor furniture twelve
years ago, thirteen.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Oh, longer than that the fuzz. Oh definitely before the fuzz,
like eighteen years ago, and we spent good money on it. Yeah,
and every single pen it's still in perfect condition. Outdoor
furniture is expensive. Yes, the crappy stuff is expensive too.
So if you're going to buy out door furniture, invest
in it and get the good stuff because it will
(08:28):
last forever.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Yeah, we spent more than I thought we should, but
I have zero regrets, right, I mean, I don't remember
the name of the brand that we bought, but it's great.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
I don't either, but they're great.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Good time to buy betting, Tricia, if you need some
more duvets or comforters or whatever it is you need.
I can't believe you haven't tried the bamboo sheets yet
because they're cooling sheets.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't have a problem with
my sheets. Some were concerned with my weight to blanket
stuff like that. And I did find a new a
new comfort that's like a weighted comforter. Yeah, and I
got my eye on it. I got to think about
it for a little bit.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
You should do a social media media video just going
through the layers of your bed of all the things,
you know what, from a blank bed all the way
to the end.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Somebody's gonna call me old because I still have a
top sheet. Why do people hate a top sheet?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
I still have a top sheet, I know.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
But the new of the younger generations is that the
top sheet is frivolous that nobody needs it.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
I feel like the top sheet is the soft barrier
between you and the blankets. I don't understand how you
don't have a top sheet also.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Good time to buy home improvement supplies right now, tools,
paint supplies, all that kind of stuff. And finally, kind
of random here, fitness trackers, or it's a good time
to buy any type of wearable fitness trackers, smart watches, pedometers,
things like that. They're on sale this month. And I'm
gonna tell you I have a Apple Watch and I
(09:58):
freaking love it for just for the tracking of fitness.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
That's fine.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
That's the only thing I ever used my Apple Watch for.
But it was too much of a pain to get
to just that feature. So I just bought a little
thirty five dollars. One happiest can be with it.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Mine syncs up with my Strava on my phone and
I love it. I love after working out looking at
all the information. I don't know what I'm gonna do
with the information, but I like looking at it.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Right So those are.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Some of the things that the month of May is
a good time to make those purchases.
Speaker 1 (10:29):

Speaker 3 (11:24):
All right, Sandy, here we go. Do you care or
don't care? To find out what the first live sporting
event ever broadcast on esp went.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
ESPN was Oh my gosh, yes I do care because
I was an early watcher of ESPN and they had
some crazy, weird stuff on there.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
All right.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
This happened in nineteen seventy nine. It was a professional
softball game between the Kentucky Bourbons and the Milwaukee Schlitz.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
They were just doing anything they could to get sporting
sports on TV.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
But ESPN a softball game. I find that amazing that
that was the first live event.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Right.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Well, they were brand new and they had this. Everyone
else had the rights to everything else. We'll take yourself
the world's strongest man. Yeah, and they're bowling. Was big milliards,
was big darts, Yeah, all kinds of stuff.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
When I think of schlitz though, I think of my dad.
I remember being a tiny trisha and I can like,
one of my core memories is a schlitz can that
red or the white with the red lettering.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Memories of your dad.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Yeah, it's a slitz It a schlitz can, random Sandy.
Do you care or don't care to find out what
something is impossible to do to a possum. You cannot
do this to a possum, but you can't to almost
any other living creature. Uh, they're impenetrable regarding this.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
You peaked my interests, so yet I see what I'll know.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Yes, a possum cannot be poisoned. It's impossible to poison
a possum. They produce a protein that basically neutralizes any
poison that enters their body, and therefore scientists are trying
to use it to build a universal poison antidote.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
For people so they can eat anything.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Eat anything. I can't kill a possum with poison.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Do you know that's crazy? Right? That's very evolved, very evolved,
very weird. Yeah, because they're not weird enough anyway.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Right.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Finally, I think this is hilarious. Care or don't care
to find out what the government considered doing with condoms
during the Cold War. I think this is hilarious. Yes,
the government briefly considered a plan to take a bunch
of extra large condoms, mark them as medium, and then
air drop them into the Soviet Union to make them
(13:42):
men think they're junk. Was smaller than American men's junk.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Hilarious to me, just trying to kill any morale the
Russians have.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Do you know how probably effective that would have been?
Do you know how in their.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Heads, especially if the women got a hold of them.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Oh my god, I love it. I just love it
that the government even thought that way.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
That's pretty clever, I know, pretty clever. And that is
cariedn't care.
