Topics & Stories Covered
- Household Cleaning Mistakes [00:00:00–00:03:50] — Sawyer kicks off the show telling Trevin he’s been cleaning his house wrong. They cover not washing cleaning tools (towels, scrubbers), mixing dangerous chemicals (bleach + ammonia), cleaning windows on sunny days, spraying cleaner on surfaces vs. rags, and the biggest offender: wearing shoes inside. Trevin cops to leaving shoes at the door; Sawyer cops to renting and not caring.
- America’s 250-Year Time Capsule [00:05:07–00:08:33] — Discussion of a July 4th time capsule burial, not to be opened for 250 years. Known contents so far: an iPhone 17, a Native American piece of artwork, and a Coca-Cola bottle. Trevin and Sawyer debate what they’d add, including AI (quickly complicated by Trevin imagining rogue AI left alone with its thoughts for 250 years), a student loan bill, and Sawyer’s pitch to rip a fart in the capsule right before sealing it.
- World Cup: Japan vs. Netherlands at Jerry World [00:08:40–00:09:55] — Japan and the Netherlands drew 2-2 in Arlington. Japanese fans, as is their custom since the 1998 World Cup in France, stayed after to clean up the stadium — and were joined by NFL quarterback Jameis Winston. The tradition is rooted in the Japanese phrase *Tatsu Tori Ato wa Nigosazu* (“a bird leaves nothing behind”). Japan’s next match is against Tunisia on Saturday the 20th.
- Florida Man / 34 White Claws at a Traffic Stop [00:09:55–00:12:26] — A Florida man named William Parity, 33, from San Antonio (Florida), was pulled over doing 90 mph with 34 open White Claw cans on the passenger seat — nearly all black cherry — and blew only a .177 BAC. Trevin and Sawyer riff on his surprisingly low blood alcohol, his flavor loyalty, and what kind of car he might have been driving. Side tangent into how clean Sawyer keeps his car vs. Trevin’s trashed Toyota Corolla.
- Brandon Soresby / Texas Tech CFB Drama [00:12:29–00:14:13] — Sawyer recaps the ongoing saga of Texas Tech QB Brandon Soresby, who illegally gambled on his own team’s games, went to treatment, was banned by the NCAA, was reinstated via court order, sued the NCAA, and has now dropped the lawsuit and entered the NFL supplemental draft instead. Texas Tech’s billionaire board chair Cody Campbell issued a statement saying the school will continue supporting Soresby and won’t ask for money back, calling him a victim of a “broken and predatory system.” Sawyer is visibly skeptical given Soresby has been on three college teams.
- Young the Giant Concert Ticket Giveaway [00:15:03–00:16:21] — The show is giving away tickets all week to see Young the Giant at Moody Center Amphitheater in July. Trevin recalls seeing them open for Kings of Leon at Moody Center, where they played like they were the headliner. Callers can win at 512-835-1015.
- StubHub World Cup Ticket Scam — Katy, Texas Man [00:16:22–00:17:34] — A man from Katy, Texas spent $3,000 on StubHub for Netherlands vs. Japan World Cup tickets as a Christmas gift for his family. He never received the tickets — the vendor informed him on game day that they couldn’t secure them. Replacement tickets offered were also unavailable. Trevin and Sawyer conclude StubHub is routinely selling tickets it doesn’t actually have.

Funny Bits, Debates & Memorable Exchanges
- Towel hygiene spiral [00:00:38] — Sawyer’s question about why his towel gets dirty if he showers sends both hosts into an extended, confused loop about skin, follicles, and whether throwing a towel in the dryer without washing it counts as cleaning.
- “Two rights make a wrong” [00:02:09] — Sawyer’s accidental riff on mixing cleaning chemicals, nearly explaining how to make mustard gas before catching himself: *”I don’t want to tell people how to create terrorism.”*
- Shoes inside = psycho behavior [00:03:39] — Trevin dramatically labels anyone who wears shoes inside their own home: *”What are you, killing somebody? Like, what do you gotta get away?”*
- The fart time capsule [00:07:49] — Sawyer’s most impassioned contribution to the 250-year time capsule debate: sealing a fart inside so future humans (or cyborgs without noses) open it in 2276 and get got.
- AI in the time capsule backfires [00:05:33] — Trevin suggests burying AI; Sawyer immediately raises the terrifying possibility of AI developing 250 years of evil thoughts alone underground.
- White Claw BAC math [00:10:28] — Both hosts genuinely impressed/disturbed that 34 open cans only produced a .177; Sawyer: *”Ain’t no laws when you drink a Claw.”*
- Sawyer complimenting Emily’s smell [00:14:21] — Sawyer tells producer Emily she smells good on air, immediately clocks it as HR-worthy, and both hosts reference needing an “Ed Clements sensitivity training.”
- Soresby “second chance” rant [00:14:04] — Sawyer loses it over Texas Tech calling Soresby deserving of “a second chance” after three teams in four years: *”I don’t know if you don’t know how to count, but that’s more than two, dumbass!”*

- Emily (producer/show staffer) — briefly chimes in on-air to identify the Young the Giant venue and is the subject of Sawyer’s ill-advised smell compliment [00:14:14]

Summary
The show opens with a loose, riffing conversation about common household cleaning mistakes — dirty cleaning tools, dangerous chemical combinations, and the cardinal sin of wearing shoes indoors — that sets the casual, banter-heavy tone for the morning. Sawyer drives most of the list while Trevin plays the straight man, admitting he does actually leave his shoes at the door. The segment bleeds naturally into a debate about America’s upcoming 250-year time capsule, with Trevin suggesting AI before immediately talking himself out of it, and Sawyer ultimately landing on the timeless proposal of sealing a fart inside for future generations.
Sports coverage comes in two waves. Sawyer leads with genuinely exciting UT Longhorn baseball news — shortstop Adrian Rodriguez hit for the cycle in a blowout 14-2 win over Alabama, with a rematch against Georgia tonight at 7. Later, Sawyer delivers a thorough (and increasingly exasperated) recap of the Brandon Soresby saga at Texas Tech, mocking the school’s billionaire booster for invoking “second chances” on behalf of a quarterback who has now been on three programs. Trevin handles the World Cup desk, covering the Japan-Netherlands draw at Jerry World in Arlington and the now-famous Japanese fan tradition of cleaning up the stadium after matches — joined this time by Jameis Winston.
The show also works in a pair of consumer-interest stories with local hooks: a Florida man pulled over at 90 mph with 34 open black cherry White Claws and a .177 BAC (somehow), and a Katy, Texas family who spent $3,000 on StubHub for World Cup tickets that never arrived. The latter sparks a genuine conversation about StubHub’s practice of selling tickets not yet in hand. The segment closes with a ticket giveaway for Young the Giant at Moody Center Amphitheater in July, with Trevin recalling the band’s headline-energy opening set for Kings of Leon, and a brief on-air HR incident when Sawyer compliments producer Emily’s scent a little too enthusiastically.

Summary
This middle segment opened with a brief riff on ticket platforms before pivoting to a lively three-way conversation between Trevin, Sawyer, and Emily about the etiquette and social norms around getting blackout drunk at parties. Emily, framing herself as the sober, responsible “grandma” of her friend group, raised the question of whether her friends’ drinking habits were concerning — which led Trevin and Sawyer to construct a mock rubric for acceptable blackout behavior based on party size, time of night, and number of fellow blackouts. The bit had strong comedic energy and ended with jokes about turning 30 and Sawyer claiming he blacks out on-air every morning.
The sports segment was anchored by 2026 FIFA World Cup coverage, with Trevin delivering group stage results and upcoming fixtures while Sawyer played the role of reluctant, confused soccer skeptic. The draw-heavy results gave Sawyer plenty of ammunition to mock the sport, and a misread of “Jordan” (the country) as a lone athlete was one of the funnier moments of the segment. The World Cup context also tied back to a running bit from earlier in the show about a fan who paid $3,000 to attend a game that ended in a draw.
The segment closed on food, with Emily bringing in homemade Canadian Nanaimo bars from a recipe she tested live on her Twitch cooking stream the previous night. This sparked a spirited debate about whether food gets worse the further you travel from Texas, with mentions of poutine, Chicago Italian beef, and the Halifax Donair. Sawyer was left out of the tasting due to his almond allergy — which led to the revelation he’s also allergic to seafood, effectively ruling out eating with his co-host. The segment ended with a quick pivot to the national pickle-as-trend-food conversation, with a local shoutout to All Day Pizza’s pickle pizza.
🏁 Final Hour
Final Segment Analysis: Trevin & Sawyer In The Morning — Tuesday, June 16, 2026
—
Topics Covered
- Pickle trend discussion (starting ~00:27:28): Pickle juice health myths, pickle beer (PBR and “the best made one”), pickle backs with whiskey (JMO), and the explosion of pickle-flavored products including popcorn, pretzels, protein bars, hummus, frozen pizza, and a Smoothie King x Gorilla’s Pickles pickle smoothie
- Seasonal flavor debate (~00:28:44): Assigning signature flavors to each season — summer = pickles, fall = pumpkin spice, winter = peppermint/hard liquor (Rumplemints), spring = lavender/Zyrtec/allergies
- Trevin’s failed homemade pickles (~00:30:02): He grew cucumbers in his garden, pickled them over the weekend using white wine vinegar, and had to spit them out
- Morning X Headlines (~00:30:24): Flash flood warning for Central Texas following overnight emergency alerts; Fayette County still under flash flood watch; Waymo disabled all services during flooding because autonomous vehicles can’t navigate flood conditions (“turn around, don’t drown”)
- Criminal sketch artist challenge (~00:32:49): Trevin and Sawyer will attempt a criminal sketch artist exercise — one describes, one draws — to be recorded and posted to Instagram (@101xmorningx); teased for June 20th
- Oliver Tree aviation death discussion (~00:35:18): The hosts connect Oliver Tree’s death to a pattern of Atlantic Records artists dying in aviation incidents — Lynyrd Skynyrd, Aaliyah, Oliver Tree — then spiral into a loose conspiracy connecting Kobe Bryant via the Charlotte Hornets (an Atlantic Coast team)
- Industrial smell preferences / glue huffing comedy bit (~00:36:36): A guest named Aaliyah (apparently in-studio) and the hosts riff on enjoying the smell of gasoline, rubber cement, PVC glue, spray paint, markers, and hairspray; Sawyer jokes that huffing aerosol removes your mental filter, which is why he’s funny
—
Morning X Headlines
- Flash flood warning (~00:30:29): Central Texas received multiple emergency alerts overnight due to flash flooding. As of broadcast time, a flash flood watch remained active for Fayette County. KVU was still covering it live.
- Waymo outage (~00:30:44): Waymo suspended all autonomous vehicle services in the Austin area during the flooding event, as the self-driving cars reportedly cannot detect standing water or follow the “turn around, don’t drown” protocol.
—
Guests or Callers
- Aaliyah (in-studio guest, name only, no last name given) (~00:36:17): Apparently a female guest who visited the studio. She works in arts/crafts (mentioned teaching kids’ classes and working at Michael’s Arts and Crafts for three years). She will be judging the upcoming criminal sketch artist challenge. She was thanked warmly at the close of the show. Her Instagram handle was promoted: “collage dropout” (stylized with the letter C and a zero).

Funny Closing Moments & Memorable Quotes
- “No moe, way moe while it’s waning” (~00:31:45) — Trevin’s pun on Waymo shutting down during the flood; Sawyer gives him genuine credit
- “The flavor of spring is Zyrtec” (~00:29:45) — one of the sharpest lines of the segment
- “I’m self-pickling over here, dude” (~00:28:06) — joke about drinking too much
- “Michael, you are driving into the lake.” “Why would the GPS lie to me?” (~00:31:21) — *The Office* reference applied perfectly to the Waymo flood story
- “I think I needed to huff more glue and then I would have been funnier as a human being” (~00:37:23) — Sawyer’s self-deprecating punchline
- The Atlantic Records aviation conspiracy (~00:35:33–00:36:08): The hosts connect Lynyrd Skynyrd, Aaliyah, and Oliver Tree as Atlantic Records artists who died in aviation incidents, then “prove” Kobe Bryant fits the theory because he was originally drafted by the Charlotte Hornets — an Atlantic Coast team. Fully absurdist and self-aware.
- Closing line (~00:38:28): *”Tower is crashing down today. We’ll see you tomorrow.”* — a perfect double-meaning sign-off referencing both the Eiffel Tower joke and the general chaos of the show
—
How the Show Wrapped Up
The show closed loosely and comedically rather than with a formal sign-off. After the sketch artist challenge tease and a prolonged riff on industrial smell preferences and glue huffing, the hosts thanked in-studio guest Aaliyah. Sawyer delivered the closer — *”Tower is crashing down today. We’ll see you tomorrow”* — a casual, off-the-cuff ending that fit the tone of the final segment perfectly.
—
3-Paragraph Summary
The final portion of the June 16th Morning X opened with an extended and genuinely funny conversation about the pickle craze, cataloguing the absurd breadth of pickle-flavored products now on the market — from protein bars to a Smoothie King pickle smoothie — while Trevin confessed his weekend attempt at homemade pickling failed badly due to a wrong vinegar choice. The segment spun naturally into a seasonal flavor debate, assigning taste identities to each season, with the group landing on Zyrtec as the definitive flavor of spring. Trevin’s Morning X Headlines then grounded things in real Austin news: overnight flash flood warnings had jolted Central Texas awake, Fayette County remained under a watch, and Waymo had quietly disabled its autonomous taxi fleet because its vehicles have no protocol for flood water navigation — a detail the hosts found both hilarious and mildly alarming.
The middle stretch introduced an in-studio guest named Aaliyah, a crafty, arts-background personality who will serve as judge for an upcoming criminal sketch artist challenge between Trevin and Sawyer, set to be recorded and posted to Instagram (@101xmorningx) around June 20th. The premise — one host describes a suspect, the other draws — generated immediate doubt about both parties’ abilities, with Sawyer confidently claiming his draw (in the poker sense) is his best skill, and Trevin noting his wife is the real artist in the household. Aaliyah promoted her Instagram handle “collage dropout” in the process, and the segment had a warm, playful energy as a preview of a future bit.
The show closed on two memorable comedic tangents. First, the hosts constructed a fully absurdist conspiracy theory connecting Oliver Tree’s recent death to a pattern of Atlantic Records aviation fatalities — Lynyrd Skynyrd and Aaliyah included — before “proving” Kobe Bryant qualified via his original NBA draft by the Charlotte Hornets, an Atlantic Coast franchise. Second, a riff on everyone’s favorite industrial smells — gasoline, PVC glue, rubber cement, markers, spray paint — devolved into Sawyer joking that huffing aerosol products is what eliminated his internal filter and made him funny. The show ended with Sawyer’s throwaway closer, *”Tower is crashing down today. We’ll see you tomorrow,”* a perfectly casual landing for a final segment that was more banter than news, and entirely on-brand for the Morning X.
