We all were pretty shocked to hear this, and think he sounded like a bit of a jerk. 7:00 AM: Coast to coast news in 60 seconds. 7:06 AM: Senseless Survey. 7:20 AM: New Visa/ Mastercard scam. This one is pretty slick since the crooks provide YOU with all the information, except the one piece they want. Note, the callers do not ask for your card number; they already have it. This information is worth reading. By understanding how the VISA & MasterCard Telephone Credit Card Scam works, you'll be better prepared to protect yourself. Here's a story passed along by a concerned citizen: One of our employees was called on Wednesday from "VISA", and I was called on Thursday from "MasterCard". The scam works like this: Person calling says, "This is (name), and I'm calling from the Security and Fraud Department at VISA. My Badge number is 12460. Your card has been flagged for an unusual purchase pattern, and I'm calling to verify. This would be on your VISA card which was issued by (name of bank). "Did you purchase an Anti-Telemarketing Device for $497.99 from a Marketing company based in Arizona?" When you say "No", the caller continues with, "Then we will be issuing a credit to your account. This is a company we have been watching and the charges range from $297 to $497, just under the $500 purchase pattern that flags most cards. Before your next statement, the credit will be sent to (gives you your address), is that correct?" You say "yes". The caller continues - "I will be starting a Fraud investigation. If you have any questions, you should call the 1-800 number listed on the back of your card (1-800-VISA) and ask for Security. You will need to refer to this Control Number. The caller then gives you a 6 digit number. "Do you need me to read it again?"Here's the IMPORTANT part on how the scam works. The caller then says, "I need to verify you are in possession of your card". He'll ask you to turn your card over and look for some numbers. There are 7 numbers; the first 4 are part of your card number, the next 3 are the security Numbers that verify you are the possessor of the card. These are the numbers you sometimes use to make Internet purchases to prove you have the card. The caller will ask you to read the 3 numbers to him. After you tell the caller the 3 numbers, he'll say, "That is correct, I just needed to verify that the card has not been lost or stolen, and that you still have your card. Do you have any other questions?" After you say No, the caller then thanks you and states, "Don't hesitate to call back if you do," and hangs up. You actually say very little, and they never ask for or tell you the Card number. But after we were called on Wednesday, we called back within 20 minutes to ask a question. Are we glad we did! The REAL VISA Security Department told us it was a scam and in the last 15 minutes a new purchase of $497.99 was charged to our card. Long story made short - we made a real fraud report and closed the VISA account. VISA is reissuing us a new number. What the scammers want is the 3-digit PIN number on the back of the card. Don't give it to them. Instead, tell them you'll call VISA or MasterCard directly for verification of their conversation. 7:30 AM: 4 things you need to know with Sara.

She had look alikes for all of her exes up on stage, and started crying and ran off the stage. 7:40 AM: A guy who used to work for Steve Jobs calls in to tell us he was not the saint everyone made him out to be. He said honestly, Jobs was kind of a jerk. He worked with him for over 2 years and Steve could never remember his name or look him in the eye. He says this glorification of him after he’s died is kind of creepy, and cult-like. 8:00 AM: Coast to coast news in 60 seconds. 8:10 AM: Headlines that don’t make the 4 things. The most stolen food worldwide is cheese. Studies of stolen food found that 1 in every 25 packages of cheese is stolen, and apparently there is a black market for cheese. Other most stolen foods include; meat, chocolate, alcohol, seafood, and infant formula. 8:20 AM: Make Sara Squirm is a new bit we’re doing in which we ask Sara a question that will probably make her uncomfortable.

Charlie Sheen says he is sober now and thinks the whole “Tiger Blood” thing is silly. He says he wishes he could take it back now.

Well, he did it, and it was his first one since 2008. We had seen the commercial this week and laughed because we thought it didn’t seem like a very good offer, because we thought it was such a slim chance he could hit one. 6:53 AM: 50% of Americans said they’d like a 10 minute recess during the workday. We think it’s a brilliant idea and wonder who the 50% who DON’T want recess are! We would love to take a break in the middle of the workday and play dodgeball, tetherball, red rover, and play on the monkey bars. 7:00 AM: Coast to coast news in 60 seconds. 7:05 AM: We play the trailers for 1980’s classic films and see if you can guess what they are. Beetlejuice, Die Hard, Airplane, The Breakfast Club, and National Lampoon’s Vacation were the 5 we played. It’s funny how different the trailers sound for the 1980’s films than they currently do. 7:22 AM: JB’s ACL Picks for this year; Elbow (Sunday at 5:30), Young The Giant (Saturday at 2 pm), Ray Lamontagne (Friday at 4:10), Foster the People (Friday at 5:30) 7:30 AM: 4 things you need to know with Sara.

GROSS! 8:20 AM: We talk to Stacey from Liberty Hill, who has an 11 year old Honda. She loves it and her husband is bound and determined to get her to buy a new car. She loves her car, hasn’t had any problems with it mechanically in the last 2 years, and doesn’t see any reason to get a new car right now.  JB can relate, he loves not having a car payment, and can’t justify buying a new car right now.  Sandy thinks she should buy a new one, and thinks her husband wants a nice car for them to go out in together because he drives a work van everyday. One of our listeners had a good suggestion; open a bank account and every month put a car payment into the account.

Marc Anthony is doing Good Morning America and Nightline soon, and he's saying it was a mutual decision between the two of them to get divorced. 6:15 AM: Questions from the bag-Sara what is your biggest fear? Her biggest fears are in 2 parts, but go together. She is afraid of "the penis" because she doesn't know anything about them, and then that causes the fear of sex and sexual acts because she is afraid of failure. The guys think she needs to watch some porn to learn what to do with a penis, but Cass thinks she could teach Sara more just telling her things over a glass of wine. 6:30 AM: 4 things you need to know with Sara.

JB and Sandy both don't like it, wouldn't let their daughters wear it, and can't believe it made it onto the shelves of JC Penney for this fall's back to school shoppers. Sara thinks it makes a girl seem bratty , and it sends a really bad message. 7:00 AM: Coast to coast news in 60 seconds. 7:10 AM: Anyone listening who has seen a UFO?

He thought it was really interesting to see their process. He was most interested in the loading of the ice cream, and said it was done by the pallet load. If they didn't get the ice cream loaded and put in the freezer in 5 minutes, it's ruined.  This caused Sandy to wonder about all of the jobs out there that if the person screws up, it's a BIG deal. We asked out listeners and heard from people who are; an Air force meteorologist, a bread machine operator (3-10 seconds or longer without fixing an error=$100,000 loss of profits), and a medical courier responsible for the lives of patients in the hospital waiting on medication.  Then we heard from Gloria the accountant who really did mess up when she paid 1 million dollars instead of 1,000 in taxes at her work. 7:35 AM: 4 things you need to know with Sara.

A: deodorants that are made for a woman and aren't strong enough for a man.   Headlines. We subconsciously assign gender to items and numbers without knowing it. Things we assign to female; round tables, even numbers, trash cans. Things we assign to male; tables with pointy edges, odd numbers, dumpsters.   Having great hair is causing women to gain weight-and here's how; they often end up choosing not to exercise because they don't want to get their hair sweaty. 8:20 AM: Sandy's wife in banned from going into Bank of America or talking on the phone to anyone at Bank of America.  Why?

The problem is, women are pretty far apart from men in that regard. It takes a woman 12-15 minutes to climax, and that's not including foreplay. 8:55 AM: 2 minute topic. Would you wear an engagement ring your fiancé's ex wife wore?  Sara says HELL NO, that it would be the ultimate form of disrespect for a man to "recycle" a ring to his second wife. Cassiday said the only way it would be ok would be if he took the diamond out and had a new ring and setting made for it. 9:00 AM: Coast to coast news in 60 seconds. 9:15 AM: Sandy watched a show about the process of boarding and un-boarding the largest cruise ship in the world.

The animals at the National Zoo in Washington sensed the earthquake 15 minutes before it occurred on Tuesday. Rick Perry is leading the poll in the Republican Party right now with a 12 point lead over Mitt Romney.

Alex, if you had to eat at one Austin restaurant (all 3 meals a day) for the rest of your life, where would it be? Alex chose Applebee’s, which we teased him relentlessly about.  He says at Applebee’s he feels like he can just be himself. One time he took JB there, and JB says when they walked in everyone greeted Alex like it was his own personal version of “Cheers”.  He loves the riblet platter, and the best time of his life was when they had all you can eat riblets.

Last night Sandy was in this situation, and the birthday boy ended up picking up the check for the whole table. Sandy said it was really nice of him, and it was great because it prevented the drama that comes with splitting up a check, but he did feel bad because when they tried to chip in, he wouldn’t let them. 6:55 AM: Cindy needs some juju for her daughter. She is trying out for the 7th grade volleyball team today at Cedar Park Middle School. These days kids do try outs before school, and she’ll find out tomorrow after school if she made the team. 7:00 AM: Coast to coast news in 60 seconds. 7:10 AM: “I can’t believe I used to ______”.

Sara can’t believe how much she loved Lance Bass from N’SYNC, but we think she still loves him now just as much as she did then. Alex can’t believe he wanted to be black so badly that he dressed like Boyz 2 Men, DJ Jazzy Jeff, and Kriss Kross. He loved Boyz 2 Men the most, and tried to get together his friends to start a singing group. He also wore overall backward like Kriss Kross did and had tiny braids in his hair.

They saw Railroad BBQ and went there because the parking lot was filled with 30 State Trooper cars. 7:50 AM: Would you rather endure 45 seconds of an earthquake like the one that happened on the East Coast, or endure 70 days over 100 degrees in Austin?

Cass had to provide 4 references, and JB was one of them, which hurt Sandy’s feelings.

JB says it gets better as they grow up, and once they’re older, you don’t have to watch and follow their every move.  Alex wants to know if Raleigh has friends that are boys now, and wonders how Jb feels about that. JB says that boys are a non issue now, and Raleigh is in the “boys are icky” phase at the moment. He says she is starting to talk about boys, and it’s going to be new for him in the next year. Alex wants to know who is better at helping Raleigh with homework—JB or Erin? JB says Erin is WAY better at this, and she and Raleigh are always butting heads over getting homework done on time. Lastly, he wants to know if Raleigh goes to bed early enough that they can get stuff done once she goes to bed. JB says she is a total night owl, and they can’t ever get her to go to bed. She stays up later than they do sometimes, so they can’t get anything done after she goes to bed. 9:30 AM: 4 things you need to know with Sara.

5/3/11…..

6:00 AM: A lot of Bin Laden news came out in the last 24 hours. There is a photograph of Obama and his security team watching the attack in real time most likely through a video feed. During the mission, Osama’s code name was Geronimo, and during the attack they collect a “mother load” of computer data from Bin Laden’s compound. There are pictures, but they are trying to decide if they should release them or not because they are quite gruesome. They built a replica compound, and the SEALs trained in it for about a month before the mission.  The compound was found because of a tip from a courier, it took 6 years to figure out who he was, and they heard him speaking on a monitored phone call years ago. By mid February the U.S. started to consider taking action, and April 28th was the last meeting finalizing plans for the mission.  There are 6 Louisiana and 2 troop leaders missing in Arkansas right now and they’ve been missing since Thursday.  They think it’s because of heavy rains, and rescuers are going to try and get a helicopter into the area soon. 6:15 AM: Fact or bull fact.

Karen called in and said she isn’t talking to her dad and hasn’t been for a year and a half.  The final straw was when her dad emailed her a forwarded email full of pornographic pictures. We also spoke with Misty who hasn’t talked to her mom in 2 years because her mom came to Texas for 2 weeks and never came to see her or Misty’s kids. The longest one we got was Nicole, who hasn’t talked to her mom in 11 years because her Uncle got sick and her mom never told her.

The tips include; not staring for more than 3 seconds, and waiting 3 seconds to look back at them again.
