📝 SUMMARY
The Morning X kicked off April Fool’s Day with Trevin and Sawyer discussing a major story affecting their broadcast – someone cut Spectrum fiber cables in North Austin, causing massive outages including at their radio station. With a $25,000 reward offered, they joked about the timing coinciding with Sawyer’s upcoming vacation. The hosts shared breakfast with HEB trail mix while Trevin carefully sorted out almonds due to his nut allergy.
Sawyer delivered an entertaining sports segment highlighting the Texas Longhorns baseball team’s 10-8 victory over Texas State, ending a four-year losing streak. He shared colorful stories from attending the game, including meeting a character named “Uncle Fungus” who claimed to run a “divorced dad daycare.” The mathematical highlight was Sawyer’s detailed analysis of achieving a “nine-by-nine-by-nine” (9 hot dogs, 9 beers, 9 innings) at various Austin area ballparks, complete with cost breakdowns.
The show’s April Fool’s spirit culminated in an elaborate prank scheme where Trevin enlisted listeners to call their hallway neighbors at KLBJ asking “Have you found it yet?” – despite nothing actually being hidden. The goal was to annoy the other hosts enough to storm into the Morning X studio, which would then unlock their stockpile of 311 and Muse concert tickets for giveaway. Throughout, the hosts maintained their signature blend of local sports knowledge, absurd comedy bits, and genuine Austin community connection.

📝 SUMMARY (3 paragraphs)
The second half of today’s Morning X revealed the aftermath of Trevin and Sawyer’s successful but consequences-heavy April Fool’s prank on the Matt & Bob show across the hallway. What started as Trevin telling them he’d hidden something in their studio (when nothing was there) escalated when listeners flooded their phone lines asking “have they found it yet?” The prank worked too well, with Bob Fonseca storming into their studio to angrily confront the hosts, particularly scolding Trevin with “I taught you everything” while Sawyer felt like a scolded child watching the drama unfold.
Between the workplace tension, the hosts shared more personal details about their growing friendship and Sawyer’s impending departure. Trevin revealed his bird-watching hobby (finding a Downey woodpecker in his backyard), his lazy eye trick, and travel advice for Sawyer’s Pacific Northwest soul-searching trip. Sawyer shared stories about his Facebook employee-of-the-month days, his welding experience, and his fear of flying after being fed ominous articles about airplane safety. Their chemistry continued developing through discussions of everything from TIG welding techniques to Sawyer’s aversion to Mexican beer.
The show wrapped with a bittersweet tone as Sawyer prepares to leave tomorrow for nine days, promising to call in from his trip while Trevin goes solo. Despite only eight days together, their partnership has clearly grown from awkward beginnings to genuine friendship, with Trevin expressing he’ll miss Sawyer and Sawyer committing to staying connected even from the Pacific time zone. The show successfully unlocked Muse and 3-11 tickets through their prank, though it may have cost them workplace harmony – a fair trade in the world of morning radio chaos.
