"The Art of Getting Away With It”


Listen Later

“Have you ever wondered why some drivers treat the freeway entrance ramp like a Sunday stroll instead of the fast lane it’s meant to be?” That’s just one of the everyday mysteries JB and Sandy tackle in this lively episode, where relatable frustrations and laugh-out-loud moments collide. From the hilarious viral Instagram clip about “zoom-zoom” merging to personal stories of Texas turnarounds and the infamous frontage road, JB and Sandy—joined by the ever-insightful Tricia—dive into the quirks of driving culture that unite (and sometimes divide) us all. You’ll hear about Sandy’s sister’s “frontage road” confusion, Landry’s quick-witted take on Austin construction (“That’s really nice of the city to build the homeless a patio”), and the universal agony of the opportunist who tries to cut the merge line. But the conversation doesn’t stop at traffic.

The crew shifts gears to college sports, where Tricia breaks down the dramatic drop in Arch Manning’s NIL valuation—from a staggering $6.8 million to $3.6 million in just a few games. Is the pressure of fame and fortune too much for student athletes? Should NIL payouts be structured like pensions? The hosts debate, sharing personal anecdotes and sharp insights, including the memorable line: “If his last name was Wotowski, he’d never have started there.” You’ll also get a dose of holiday humor as JB and Sandy riff on fake Christmas trees, Costco’s infamous return policy, and the art of sneaking a framed photo into a friend’s house for years without them noticing. The episode wraps with a playful look at the Louvre’s latest security blunder—someone hung a Lego-framed painting in the same room as the Mona Lisa!
