“Is it ever too early for pumpkin spice season?” That’s the question Sandy and Trisha dive into as they unpack the surprising return of fall flavors in the middle of a Texas summer. From Starbucks’ AugustPSL launch to Halloween candy sightings in July, the duo debates whether we’re rushing the seasons—or just embracing the chaos.

In this lively and laugh-filled episode of The Sandy Show, Sandy and Trisha cover everything from TV and movie sequels (yes, Practical Magic 2 and Devil Wears Prada 2 are happening!) to audiobook fails, including a hilariously underwhelming narration of Bob Dylan’s Chronicles by none other than Sean Penn. Spoiler: Trisha thought it was John Mellencamp. You’ll also hear:
  • Trisha’s “lotto booty call” and her ongoing love-hate relationship with scratch-offs.
  • A passionate defense of Ted Lasso and Schitt’s Creek as the ultimate feel-good binges.
  • Sandy’s bromance with Tom Hardy—and his brutally honest movie reviews.
  • The genius of a $20 bill wrapped around a Kit Kat bar as the ultimate kid’s birthday gift.
  • A hilarious throwback to the “Fruit Cocktail Guy” and his rage over half a cherry.
Memorable Quote:
“It’s more than enough, and they will be thankful for it—for they do not deserve it!” — Fruit Cocktail Guy

Whether you’re here for the laughs, the pop culture updates, or just to hear Sandy and Trisha’s banter, this episode is packed with personality, nostalgia, and a few surprises.
