 If the apocalypse hit tomorrow… would you be ready?

That’s the question Sandy poses after learning actor Josh Duhamel has a 70% complete doomsday cabin in Minnesota. In this episode of The JB and Sandy Show, the crew dives into prepping, survival gear, and the wild world of emergency expos—while keeping it hilarious and uniquely Austin. Sandy reignites his prepping hobby, revealing he owns tubs full of ammunition, fire-starting Vaseline, and plans to buy a hand-cranked radio. JB adds his Starlink satellite internet to the mix, and Tricia wonders if they’ll need horses when fuel runs out. The trio even discusses forming a survival commune with their friend Moore—who has enough rations for four and the ammo to defend them. The episode also uncovers a hidden Cold War-era bomb shelter in Zilker Park and a house on South Congress with a bunker under the front yard. It’s Austin history meets survivalist fantasy. Later, the conversation shifts to pop culture as JB and Sandy celebrate the addition of two rising stars to the cast of Saturday Night Live:
  • Cam Patterson, a Houston comic known for his edgy humor and appearances on Kill Tony.
  • Veronica Sloakowska, a quirky Instagram sensation with roles on Tires and What We Do in the Shadows.
The hosts reflect on SNL’s evolution, its 50th anniversary, and how the show thrives in the age of YouTube and streaming.
