“Is your grandma mad today? It might be Cracker Barrel’s fault.”

 In this lively episode of The JB and Sandy Show, the crew dives into the seismic shifts happening in the entertainment world. Special guest Stephen Presley from ThunderPop TV joins to break down the potential mega-merger between Warner Bros. and Paramount, and what it means for your streaming subscriptions. With Hulu and Disney+ already joining forces, are we heading toward a future of fewer apps and more consolidated content? Then, the conversation takes a hilarious turn toward Cracker Barrel’s identity crisis—from logo changes to menu makeovers, the beloved comfort food chain is modernizing, and not everyone is happy. Tricia passionately defends the biscuits, the rocking chairs, and the country store, while Sandy and JB reminisce about long-lost chain restaurants and the desserts that still haunt them. Also featured: a budget-friendly alternative to Las Vegas’ Sphere—Dallas’ Cosm Dome, offering immersive 8K movie experiences without the hefty concert ticket price. Stephen shares his plan to sneak away for a solo trip, leaving his 8-year-old son to fend for himself (jokingly, of course).

Guest Insights & Highlights:
  • Stephen Presley from ThunderPop TV shares insider knowledge on streaming mergers and immersive entertainment.
  • Tricia gives a heartfelt defense of Cracker Barrel’s legacy and laments the loss of nostalgic desserts.
