  • A Good Place To Get Rid of a Body

    A Good Place To Get Rid of a Body
    2025/12/16
    🤔 If a gadget could record your every conversation and organize your life, would you trust it—or run for the hills? That’s the burning question JB, Sandy, and Tricia debate in this lively, laugh-filled episode of The JB and Sandy Show! 🎙️ The show kicks off with Austin’s beloved tradition—the Fruitcake Song. JB shares the hilarious backstory of this 30-year-old classic, written with his friend Rusty (“He was basically Weird Al Yankovic, but not as famous. And more talented!”). The song, about a guy in love with Santa, has sparked laughter and a little controversy over the years, but it’s become a staple of the holiday season. “Don’t be that person who complains—just have a laugh and enjoy the fruitcake!” 🍰🎅 Tech talk takes center stage as JB reveals his latest obsession: an AI-powered necklace called Fieldy. This futuristic gizmo listens to your conversations, creates reminders, and summarizes your life (“If there’s anyone on planet Earth that needs this, it’s JB!”). The crew debates its usefulness, style (“It’s very ‘I’ve fallen and I can’t get up’ type of necklace”), and privacy. Would you wear it? Would you let it record your “Tricia logic” moments for posterity? 🤖 Memorable moments and quotes include:
    • JB’s legendary memo recorder story: “Mile marker 112, good place to bury a body.”
    • The Fruitcake Song’s playful lyrics: “Whistle toe over the door, just bought some leather from the store… Yes, I’m having me a fruitcake for Christmas!”
    • Sandy’s reflection on studio musicians: “There’s a lot of people that just didn’t get paid what they should have gotten paid… They’re the unsung heroes of the soundtrack of your life.”
    • The lost brick saga: Tricia’s family bought a commemorative brick on Town Lake, but no one can find it. “It’s supposed to be where the ducks are hanging out… It’s probably got poop on it.”
    The episode also features:
    • Holiday recommendations, including the documentary “The Wrecking Crew” and the hospital drama “The Pit.”
    • A spirited debate about charitable gifts (“If someone gives you a card saying a donation was made in your name, is that really a gift?”).
    • Running shoe advice, trail adventures, and the comfort of familiar routines.
    Notable Quotes:
    • “If there’s anyone on planet Earth that needs this, it’s JB. Holy crap, I’m gonna buy one for you.”
    • “Don’t be that person who complains—just have a laugh and enjoy the fruitcake.”
    • “It’s supposed to be where the ducks are hanging out. Couldn’t find it. It’s probably got poop on it.”

  • Sandy's Court Fees

    Sandy's Court Fees
    2025/12/16
    “Would You Survive an FBI Background Check? Real ID Drama, Fruitcake Songs & Holiday Surprises!” Episode Description 🎙️ “If the FBI ran a background check on you today, would you be nervous?” That’s the question that kicks off a rollercoaster episode of The JB and Sandy Show, where holiday cheer meets real-life drama and unexpected laughs! 🎄🚨 Sandy, JB, and Tricia dive into Austin’s changing landscape, reminiscing about the city’s green spaces and sturdy new buildings, while sharing stories that blend nostalgia with humor. From the passing of Austin’s progressive mayor Frank Cooksey to wild tales of cows and squirrels causing chaos on Texas highways (“Are squirrels that indecisive in every aspect of their life?”), the hosts keep you entertained with their signature wit. The episode heats up with Tricia’s “story we love,” spotlighting the looming Real ID deadline. Did you know that starting February 1st, travelers without a Real ID or passport will face a $45 fee and up to 30 minutes of extra verification at the airport? “You’ve had 20 years… $45 and up to 30 minutes while they verify whatever other ID you brought with you.” The hosts speculate about the 6% of people who still haven’t updated their IDs—are they running from the law, or just procrastinating? 😅 Memorable moments abound as Sandy and Tricia share their own brushes with bureaucracy and the law:
    • Sandy’s forgotten court fee from a 1990 bar fight (“Texas didn’t care. Iowa did. Ohio did.”)
    • Tricia’s unexpected night in jail for a $35 court fee (“I was all cute and dressed up… crying with makeup streaked down my face.”)
    • The infamous “pooped in public” mugshot story that had everyone in stitches.
    The holiday spirit shines through with talk of magical moments, Texas Lottery scratch tickets, and the legendary Fruitcake Song—JB’s ode to Santa that’s been a show tradition for nearly 30 years. “If you’ve never heard it, you need to hear it. If you have heard it, then you know you’ll love it.” Other highlights include:
    • The wild world of Texas highways, where cows and pigs are as much a hazard as speeding cars.
    • Squirrel survival tactics and the mystery of their “nut maps.”
    • A mashup of Old West history and podcast recommendations for curious listeners.
    Notable Quotes:
    • “Are squirrels that way in every aspect of their life? Like, you’re my girlfriend, no you’re not.”
    • “You’ve had 20 years… $45 and up to 30 minutes while they verify whatever other ID you brought with you.”
    • “I was all cute and dressed up… crying with makeup streaked down my face.”

  • "Sorry I called you an A Hole"

    "Sorry I called you an A Hole"
    2025/12/16
    🌟 “If your pet feels like family, should the IRS agree?” That’s just one of the wild questions Sandy and Tricia tackle in this laughter-packed episode of The Sandy Show! 🎙️ From the moment Sandy introduces his “beautiful, talented, yet somewhat acerbic” wife Tricia, you know you’re in for a ride. The duo dives into the quirks of social media fame, with Tricia celebrating her Instagram milestone (“I only wanted 900 followers, now I’m at 948!”), and the hilarity of being followed by “your mother’s fave 58.” But the real fun begins when a lawyer sues the IRS, demanding that pets count as legal dependents. Tricia and Sandy debate: “He has no independent income. He resides exclusively with her and has annual expenses exceeding $5,000. That satisfies the IRS’s intent of dependency… except for the fact that it’s not a human.” Would you write off your goldfish? 🐟 The episode gets heartfelt as Tricia shares the emotional journey of pet ownership—“Rip your heart out having a pet, won’t it?”—and the bittersweet memories of their beloved dog, Shiny. The conversation turns to pet insurance, family, and the little things that make life magical. 🎉 Bigfoot believers, rejoice! Tricia’s passion for the legendary creature takes center stage as she reveals her plans to hunt Bigfoot with friends, her collection of Bigfoot gear, and the latest news: Bigfoot is now in Fortnite! “He’s super strong, can’t be defeated easily, and if anybody gets close, he disappears into the woods.” Will you spot him first? 👣 The Sandy household is a carnival of joy and humor, from Bigfoot wallpaper to needlepoint messages (“Sorry I called you an a-hole. I thought you knew.”), googly eyes on outlets, and signs that say “have a nice poop.” It’s a place where you can’t help but smile—or be playfully insulted. Other highlights include:
    • The surprising history of movie trailers (“They were originally shown at the end of movies!”)
    • Tricia’s superhuman sense of smell (“Approximately one trillion scents!”)
    • The real story behind Van Gogh’s Starry Night (“It was the view from the room of a mental asylum in France.”)
    Cool, you are st
    Memorable Quotes:
    • “I want to give a comfortable 60% and have time for my shows.”
    • “Bigfoot is everywhere right now. He’s like the kale fad. He’s cottage cheese right now.”
    • “Our house is so fun. It’s like living in a carnival fun house.”
