There's no "S" in the middle of New Braunfels Jul 12, 2019

Show notes

When we heard our graphic designer pronounce New Braunfels as “New Bronze Fulls” for the 80th time today we knew something had to be done. Lessons had to be learnt. We phoned in a few friends and got to the bottom of some good old fashioned Texas pronunciations on this episode.

Texas Hot Take - The Lufkin Blue Bell Licker Jul 10, 2019

Do Texans Need Air Conditioning? Jul 09, 2019

Show notes

There was a tweet out of New York that caught our attention this morning. Long story short the words patriarchy and sexism were used to describe air conditioning. Seeing as how AC is a staple everywhere from your car to your favorite dive bar in Texas we decided it was a pretty important issue to tackle on the podcast today. Take a listen and let us know what y’all think.

Why do people eat Jack In The Box tacos? Jun 14, 2019

Show notes

I'm baffled. Yes, baffled as to why people actually eat Jack In the Box tacos. It's never made any sense to me at all. As it turns out, I'm in the minority on that though. Almost the entire Texas Humor team is obsessed with them.
On today's episode, we have a spirited debate on their quality and whether I should try them or not.
The Wall Street Journal article on the tacos can be read here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/americans-eat-554-million-jack-in-the-box-tacos-a-year-and-no-one-knows-why-1483465285
