00:01:35
Speaker 2: I'm already, I'm already. Did you notice how he set up on the cap? That usually means it's not a good one. So go ahead, what is it you.

00:01:42
Speaker 4: Do here in the first segment or we just dease it?

00:01:44
Speaker 2: Well, we'll hang on a second. Where in Carnie sand Hill crane capital of the world. Apparently all the sand hill cranes will come here and like hang out and you know, have a social event when they're when they're going south for the win, and then they come back when they're going north and they kind of hang out here, maybe at the Candlewood Sweets. But they're not here right now. But people here like the cranes.

00:02:07
Speaker 5: Yeah, most people come through here to see the cranes were a little early, maybe late, regardless, it seems they may have left a smell around town.

00:02:14
Speaker 2: But I will say this, we love Carney. I'm not trying to be rude Chanton because you know, I like Carnee. It does smell like horsepoop the whole town. And I don't say this, am I right?

00:02:26
Speaker 6: He said it like you're saying it though you're saying Carne, Nebraska smells like crap.

00:02:31
Speaker 7: That's what you just said. He just said that. I mean, they'll get nice to us, and you come in here and.

00:02:35
Speaker 2: Say trying to be I'm not being rude because the people here have been nice. The food was good, really good. Yeah. The chairs at the Mexican Place were great. Good. Mario ate two dinners twice at the same restaurant.

00:02:48
Speaker 7: He's a growing boy, he is.

00:02:50
Speaker 8: I wish we had his metabolism. But it does smell like horsepoop here. Yeah, Well that happens, you know. I mean it does in Kentucky too. I didn't know what about I didn't know anything.

00:03:01
Speaker 6: About the state of Nebraska except for the movie in Nebraska, which is great, which is in black and white, and I thought that when we crossed the border everything would be in black and white, and it kind of was. It was windmills and the open land and a lot like Kansas are here.

00:03:12
Speaker 2: We are, Max. How are you enjoying and yet another state on your list?

00:03:16
Speaker 9: I'm enjoying it. The more you travel around, though, the more things stay the same. I walk down from a hotel room this morning, you know, wiping my eyes, ready to grab my coffee, and what do I know?

00:03:25
Speaker 2: Things stay the same.

00:03:26
Speaker 9: Matt's down here watching folks news.

00:03:31
Speaker 2: I'm trying to get that off my television as quickly as possible.

00:03:34
Speaker 9: We got a call. Continue to stand back and stand by. He has got all the usual things. Well, good, well we have Thank you. We have four folks who've made the trip. I think there may be a few more coming in a little bit. All of whom drove from Omah to be here.

00:03:48
Speaker 2: Is that it's very nice, including one a young man who you apparently sent a cameo to. I love this story. You sent a cameo to him a couple of years ago for his birthday, and the first fifteen seconds were you tried to figure out how to use your phone.

00:04:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember this one for a little old young Brayden. I was in a bad WiFi area and my screen froze, but apparently it was still rolling.

00:04:11
Speaker 2: And you sit in fifteen seconds of you licking your teeth with your.

00:04:15
Speaker 4: Tongue, trying to figure out why is this froze?

00:04:18
Speaker 2: Here?

00:04:18
Speaker 6: You realize you don't have to send that right like you can send up to drafts. Maybe try it again. I don't know why is it. I think it was all part of the Wi fi issues. That's part of the Ryan experience. I never know what you're gonna you know what you're gonna get.

00:04:30
Speaker 2: You don't know what you're gonna get, and it could be him grossly licking his tongue. All right, So now give us the your fact about Carnie Nebraska.

00:04:38
Speaker 3: Connie Nebraska is the exact center of the United States between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. It's Carnie Nebraska.

00:04:45
Speaker 2: Wow, you're saying, this is the exact center of the United States.

00:04:49
Speaker 4: Right here between the art Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean.

00:04:52
Speaker 2: So the continental United States.

00:04:54
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is the this is the consider the.

00:04:56
Speaker 2: Where'd you hear that? Google Wikipedia? So we're like right in the middle of America. So when they talk about middle America, they're talking about here.

00:05:05
Speaker 4: There may be somewhere, they say, the MIDI.

00:05:07
Speaker 2: He's already like, he's already taken.

00:05:08
Speaker 3: I'm sure somebody's probably staying there in the middle of the United States. This is the exact midpoint between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean.

00:05:16
Speaker 2: Right here. Okay, the part of the Atlantic Ocean.

00:05:20
Speaker 4: It's probably the shore, but they're sure all it could be probably.

00:05:25
Speaker 3: The closest to be in the closest in the Pacific Ocean, the closest in a.

00:05:30
Speaker 2: Lot of facts. You look and it says Shannon could be.

00:05:32
Speaker 7: I don't believe any of it, even if it were true. I'm not that impressed.

00:05:35
Speaker 2: I mean, you were blown away.

00:05:39
Speaker 7: I'm glad we didn't tease that any longer. Been a big letdown here.

00:05:42
Speaker 2: You should have let you shouldn't have given me five extra minutes. You said it was your most excited fact you'd ever had, And that's what you're coming up with.

00:05:49
Speaker 4: Yeah, that fun fact I think is really really As.

00:05:52
Speaker 2: We said also yesterday, it's the corporate headquarters of the Buckle. Uh. Do you ever shopped at.

00:05:56
Speaker 9: The buckle, haven't haven't shopped at the buckle yet. Would love to, but haven't up to the bucket.

00:06:00
Speaker 6: I think I've got one pair of jeans, you know, the skinny jeans that you always make fun of me.

00:06:05
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think they came. I think they came from the buckle.

00:06:07
Speaker 2: Those are like size twenty eight. Those are the skinniest jeanes.

00:06:10
Speaker 7: Mad My Butler, great though you were when you see right, Yeah, you've got it.

00:06:16
Speaker 2: Doesn't seem to be on the same page. What does the generally I go with the internet? What is that? Google?

00:06:22
Speaker 5: So I've tied carne, Nebraska, and then lots of keywords center, middle of America, middle of the ocean's center point. None of those things have triggered any result that would suggest this.

00:06:33
Speaker 2: Did you right? Let me see where you got it? Right? First of all, you this is you just went to Cityfkearney, dot org or car Okay. We believe that in nineteen sixty four, Carnee was linked with Interstate eight, which created a But why are you showing me this? This just says it has motails and restaurant.

00:06:47
Speaker 4: Keep reading Young matches a.

00:06:48
Speaker 2: Striking feature about carnees. It's located halfway between the Atlanta and Pacific Ocean.

00:06:55
Speaker 7: That's what you got out of that.

00:06:56
Speaker 2: Huh yeah? All right, Well we'll see if the challenge fly is thrown. But it's still been nice. Here a couple of things. First of all, Kentucky and Clympson play tonight. That game is late. It's at nine to thirty Eastern tonight. It's gonna be a late game. If you are in Kentucky, you can come watch it at the bar there. We're gonna be up open late for it. But we are going to be watching the game in Fort Collins, Colorado. Now, Drew is part of this trip because you know Ryan always likes to go. We eat with Mat Wednesday, we drink with Man winsd Man like he always likes to say that. So I've been trying to spread it out. I'm giving everybody a chance to pick the restaurants you picked last night two nights ago. You did well. Last night. Max picked Cunningham's on the River, which was very good. Shinnon is picking lunch today in North Platte, Nebraska. Tell everybody where you picked.

00:07:46
Speaker 7: Penny's Diner. Can I read you a quick review?

00:07:48
Speaker 2: This is Penny's Diner. Where we're eating lunches.

00:07:50
Speaker 6: One out of five stars air events are visibly caked with dirt and dust, so who knows how much is falling into your food or what you're breathing. We waited forty five minutes for dry over cooking cheeseburgers served by a waitress with a chronic cough.

00:08:02
Speaker 7: That does not kind of plays right there.

00:08:04
Speaker 2: I want to go right now.

00:08:05
Speaker 9: If we're not doing the pregame show tonight, you know what happened? What We just got some really bad there.

00:08:11
Speaker 2: We got the chronic cough. So so here's the update. So we're gonna eat North Platte. Then we're staying in beautiful Windsor, Colorado. I got our first Airbnb of the trip. It has uh, it has a hot tub, it has s'mores, it has a fire pit. That's where we're gonna do the pregame show. That's also probably where we're gonna do the morning show tomorrow. So for those of you wondering where to come see us in Windsor Colorado or tomorrow morning, it will be Windsor, Colorado. So if you're in Windsor right me, I'll send you the address so you know where you're going tonight. How it has it has four bedrooms, but one bedroom has five bed.

00:08:50
Speaker 7: Don't worry, I'll have the review.

00:08:52
Speaker 5: By ways, there's a California King bed.

00:08:59
Speaker 2: I got that one. There's a king bed, there is a Queen bed, and then there's a room that has two doubles, a twin and a trundle bed. And I don't know what a trundle bed.

00:09:10
Speaker 7: They said, pulls out like a drawer, slides out like a drawer.

00:09:14
Speaker 2: Put Mario in my drawer. Okay, so, but so three of you will get to.

00:09:17
Speaker 7: Be in one room like a morgue.

00:09:24
Speaker 2: But uh, but but there are six beds. It's just three of you are in the same room.

00:09:28
Speaker 9: That's fine by day, as long as we know with Ryan, apparently Mario struggled with last night.

00:09:32
Speaker 2: Oh I didn't hear about that, did Mario? Did you struggle to sleep? Here? Get on here for a second. I want to hear your description of Ryan snoring? What you this is the first time you've had to stay with Ryan? What does him his snoring sound like? You want me to give you an example? Yeah, yes, gotcha. It's kind of like all night long? Did okay? You don't look happy, So that's really did you?

00:10:01
Speaker 7: It was five am.

00:10:02
Speaker 2: I woke up and the TV.

00:10:03
Speaker 10: Usually I put the TV on to kind of drown out the noise, but it kept turning off, so I would wake up every hour or so and I'd just hear him snoring.

00:10:11
Speaker 2: On they do what more impression. So did you at any point try to rustle him or wake him up?

00:10:19
Speaker 8: No?

00:10:19
Speaker 10: I didn't because I was just like, he's he's sleeping already. Just let him have his dream sleep.

00:10:25
Speaker 2: Oh that was very nice.

00:10:25
Speaker 7: If you, well, at least you woke up, you know, that would imply you fell asleep at some point.

00:10:29
Speaker 9: So did you get any sleep?

00:10:31
Speaker 2: A little bit? Yeah, a little bit. Well, we won't put you with him every night. Tonight, we'll give him the trundle bed himself and it'll be all right. Well, I'm glad you got through it. That's part of the part of the trip. We've all done it. Mari apreciation.

00:10:44
Speaker 5: I like that he let Ryan dream, let Ryan chase cars in his sleep there while Mario had to had to put up with it.

00:10:49
Speaker 2: No noise, canceling, headphones, nothing, nothing. Well, it is tough. I have a lot of people that write me asking if you would maybe you might want to get it looked at. Have you thought about it?

00:11:00
Speaker 4: Remember I went through the whole sleep test process.

00:11:02
Speaker 2: I mean, did you they give you one of the machines?

00:11:04
Speaker 3: Sam, They have me tested with one of those machines. And like, I'm not a candidate, Like I'm almost you're not a candidate.

00:11:11
Speaker 2: Who is what you mean? You're not a candidate. You snore more than anyone I've ever known. How are you not a candidate?

00:11:18
Speaker 4: I think they said mine's all allergy related.

00:11:21
Speaker 2: Not a candidate. I do not believe that it is.

00:11:26
Speaker 11: Not a candidate. You should be president of the club. It's apparently, like I mean, people say it's a little dangerous. Aren't you concerned about it?

00:11:38
Speaker 4: I was until I got it tested and I came back okay.

00:11:41
Speaker 2: So now you did not come back Okay, you're not okay. You snore like a willed the beast.

00:11:48
Speaker 4: I think I should sleep with you tonight.

00:11:51
Speaker 2: You can there's there will be no nights with me now. I'm gonna spread it like I'm willing to give you the single bed, not for you but for the rest of humanity.

00:12:02
Speaker 4: But I slept with the one time Max in the middle of the night, he's right over top of me. Clap your hand and then jump back, you jump back in bedroom fall.

00:12:10
Speaker 2: I would, I would hit him with a pillow, and because if you hit it, the thing is, he'll stop for like a minute, and then you jump in bed like please, fall asleep. Please. It's the worst. It is the worst because again it's not even consistent, right, Mario, It's like it's it's not consistent. It's not like a rhythm. There's no rhythm. Which listen, I'm I know there are people listening here who work in the seapap area. I refuse to believe you're not a candidate. I can't imagine who would be a candidate besides you. Like, for instance, last night, I was in the same room machineon. He started a little bit and I noticed I did my.

00:12:52
Speaker 7: You didn't tell me this.

00:12:53
Speaker 2: No, I didn't go above you. I just did it in the thing and you flipped over and then you didn't snore again. You start snoring before I even finished the class.

00:13:01
Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure.

00:13:03
Speaker 3: Uh, maybe you know it has been several years since I got the original test. Maybe things have changed ten years later.

00:13:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe maybe maybe in ten years, ten years.

00:13:13
Speaker 7: Then you've gotten healthier. Huh, the perfect picture of bad health.

00:13:17
Speaker 2: Eight twenty two eighty seven. We are gonna take your calls today we did not yesterday. If you want to weigh in on the on the stoop situation, We're gonna talk a lot about Kentucky and Clemson today. They played tonight, big game for me to see kind of can Kentucky continue their momentum beat the teams? They should, but in a road environment. We are on the road in Carniing, Nebraska, where at the Candlewoods Suites. If you want to come by and say hello, we'll take a break. Great bags, Kentucky Sports Radio working back. It is Kentucky Sports Radio. Let me first of all say to the to the folks that are here, I can't tell you how much I enjoy that. This is one of my favorite things in doing the show is going out on the road. And I mean we're in a random place. Both of the both of these groups of people drove from Nebrassa. This was the stop I was most worried we would have no people at because it's literally there's nothing around here, and yet we do have people. And it means a lot that people are listening all the way across the across the country. I expected John Higgins to be here since we're close to Omaha. He did not make the trip, Drew, I'd hoped to, you know, maybe have some common ground, but he did not. But it was nice of these people to make the trip. So it's in them. I wish we had seen him.

00:14:25
Speaker 5: Maybe we could do a lap around see his childhood home, a landmarks he has around Nebraska.

00:14:31
Speaker 9: My former long snapper that we looked to you. I message him yesterday, I say, could you get anyone to the show? He said, there is no one in Nebraskt that would bother come into your radio show.

00:14:39
Speaker 2: Idea. Yeah, I used to root for you to snap it straight. Why now I hope you snap it crooked because that's that's not very nice. Corey Price has already looked up an article on Pennies Dinner, North Platt, Nebraska. It says something unique to Penny's Diner is the dry race boards on every wall. Children and adults are encouraged to make a drawing using the dry race barns.

00:15:05
Speaker 7: We gotta do one, then, right, what are we gonna put on ours?

00:15:08
Speaker 2: I know what Ryan will put and they'll immediately delete it. No, it'll be it'll be a symbol of something I know what he will do.

00:15:16
Speaker 5: But for everybody else, we can do some dry racing. I'm looking forward to that. Maybe drop some plays, go over some offense how Kentucky football.

00:15:23
Speaker 2: It'd be fun. Yeah, eight eight eighty before we go the phones. Vince was obviously on here yesterday. It got a lot of attention after the show. I think the general consensus was people thought it wasn't the most inspiring interview in the world from him. You know, we yesterday it was weird when it was. We had so much going on yesterday and when we had him on, you know, in the moment, we all kind of looked at each other like, this isn't the normal Vince that we're used to hearing. But we had to immediately get back to the show and do all this going back and listening. It wasn't the way it normally is with him, wouldn't you agree?

00:16:05
Speaker 3: I totally agree. It wasn't Vince's finest moment. He seemed very elusive and seemed to dance around your questions, and you'd ask him yes or no question, he'd pause and wait a long time, even before he said yes, it just it just didn't seem like the Vince that we know.

00:16:19
Speaker 2: They didn't And maybe it's just because there was a lot going on. I mean, I don't know, but it did not you know, Drew, It just wasn't the raw, raw Vince that we were used to. I got blasted online for people going, why didn't you yell at him, like why do you yell at him? Well, I mean people are like, why didn't you press him? I mean I I did. He answered it the way he answered. I mean, I'm I'm not gonna scream at the guy. And I feel this. I felt the same way when people would, you know, when we would talk to cal and people would be mad back in the day, like you can't. I mean, I give them that chance to answer, and then they answer. I did think though it wasn't necessarily the best at telling the fans, hey, it's all gonna be okay.

00:17:00
Speaker 5: No, he kind of didn't really want to get into the Louisville thing, which was the main story and kind of the reason he had gotten on the air because that report had come out, and then the thing that worried me was at the end when you said something out.

00:17:11
Speaker 2: I said, are you gonna be back in Lexington?

00:17:13
Speaker 5: Yes, wasn't the most enthusiastic yess, And there was a pause there.

00:17:17
Speaker 6: It was like a it was a hostage situation. Yes, yes, yeah, like somebody like standing over top of them. I love Vents, I love them, but I actually felt worse about his chances staying at Kentucky after the interview. If he hadn't done the interview, I would have said, Okay, he says he's not going I believe him. After that interview, I don't know. I felt like it was it was worse for me to think he's gonna stay.

00:17:41
Speaker 9: He said that they had that big meeting the night before, so I'm hoping we can just put it down to they had a big day and they'd stayed up all night trying to fix the program, and he was just tired.

00:17:50
Speaker 2: But there was some moments for me.

00:17:52
Speaker 9: The biggest moment was when he said, we've got the pieces, we just needed, you know, plug a few holes. To me, it's like there's a lot of places that we need a replace. We really need to go hit the portal hod and get some guys from high school. And you know, he mentioned two really good gods. I mean, no offense to those guys. I think we could probably replace old Father though offensive lime right now.

00:18:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, another, that's another thing that people were a little frustrated about. So we'll see. I mean, you know, with all this stuff, there is I remember when Pope was building his roster, Ryan, there is a sense of like, you're not gonna know everything tomorrow, you know, And there was a lot of people who didn't think Pope was filling his roster quick enough. We didn't get great assiboard and some people were like, oh, this team's not gonna be We're number four in the country right now. So sometimes you have to let it play out. But I do understand the nervousness in the fan base right now. And we'll see where we are in a few weeks.

00:18:40
Speaker 4: Yeah. Up until the past couple of years, they've killed it in the transfer portal and killed it with the recruits for whatever reason, they just kind of missed on some guys.

00:18:48
Speaker 2: But in the past few years we've had guys returning we knew we could count on, and I think people are worried about that this year.

00:18:54
Speaker 9: And well, so we'll see the most important thing that he said and I think that there's a lot more to this than maybe people making said that they're going to do such a bigger look into the like the character of the human that they're bringing in.

00:19:05
Speaker 2: I think that's gonna make a world of difference. I think that's great. But there's a part of me that goes, why weren't we doing that before? I mean, yes, it needs to change, but also there's a part of me going that we should have been doing that because they did a pretty good job of that with guys coming out of high school. In general.

00:19:21
Speaker 9: Stoops's thing used to be we probably had enough good culture guys, and the culture was strong enough that we were able to just bring guys in and they would fit in. Now I think within Io, you're getting so many new guys all the time that maybe that overrode the culture.

00:19:35
Speaker 2: So now back to the character is great. Hey, if I'm nine two eight twenty two eighty seven, who's up first? Rick?

00:19:40
Speaker 4: Got Steve up first?

00:19:41
Speaker 2: Steve, go ahead, Steve.

00:19:45
Speaker 12: Hey, good morning, guys, Thanks for taking my call. The reason I'm calling I'm in Atlanta and I'm heading over the cleansing game tonight, and I was just curious if you think there's gonna be a large UK contingency, and I've.

00:19:57
Speaker 2: Heard of some people going. I don't know if it be large, but I do think there will be people going. Steve, I would ask, if you go to the game, do me a favorite call the postgame show after and let us know what it was like and how many Kentucky fans were there. I can do that, appreciate, appreciates called generally speaking, when Kentucky's played at South Carolina over the years, right, we've gotten a good crowd there. I don't know if this will be different because I don't know how many tickets were available to the general fans. But back in the day when we play South Carolina when they weren't good, we'd have thirty percent of the crowd there.

00:20:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, usually when they played South Carolina, Georgia, Georgia Tech, somebody down there, that Atlanta UK alumni chapter is like the biggest in the country outside of Kentucky, so they usually flood those games. So yeah, they'll be a good crowd there, but it won't miss a home game for Clifton's not gonna be a monster.

00:20:46
Speaker 2: Year and we've already played in Atlanta this year. You know, the Champions Classic game against Duke was there, so that may be thing part of it too.

00:20:52
Speaker 5: That's what I was gonna have. We're gonna to trust the locals. Just there's so many destinations this fall. I mean you can even throw in just going to Austin. A lot of people did that. You still have I think Seattle is gonna have people made that the trip. It just ranked a little too far down the list this year for you know, everyone to follow into Clemson. But I still think a good local crowd show.

00:21:08
Speaker 2: I mean, this is the kind of game to me, Shanton that if you're a really good team, and I'm not gonna be critical of this team. If they're not a really good team, they can still become one. But if you're a really good team, this is the kind of game you win, right, Like you go to South you go to Clemson. You're better than them. But they're at home, right, which is a whole other thing. They've really not played anybody good. They've played. Boise State is the best team they played and they lost. Yeah, so I mean they really haven't played anybody good. This is the kind of game you want to go get the victory. The seven to one record looks good, but you're right.

00:21:40
Speaker 6: You start looking at who they played, and they didn't really beat a lot of those teams by a large margin.

00:21:45
Speaker 7: They struggled with some of those teams. So yeah, you feel like you can go in and win that game.

00:21:49
Speaker 6: I feel like Kentucky's gonna drop one of the two games coming up, either the one we're going to or this game tonight, and we'll see what happens. But I feel good about this game tonight.

00:21:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, so real quickly, I will look at their schedule just to give you a sense. They beat Florida A and M by I guess eight twenty eight. They beat Penn State at home by eight. They will beat San Francisco, Radford lost by thirteen to Boise. They only beat Eastern by ten, right, and they beat Saint Francis and Charleston Southern, So not exactly a murderer's rule.

00:22:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, we're thinking of the Clemson of last year that was really good and made a run to the Sweet sixteen, and people thought they had a chance to even make the fine.

00:22:26
Speaker 2: They have some of those dudes back, which is why, which is why, Yeah, I mean, that's why they paired us with them. Is I think they thought thought with some of those dudes back, they'd be good. The player's been there six years. Really yeah. I mean my guess is whatever is their best effort, Drew is what we will get tonight. Yeah.

00:22:42
Speaker 5: And for me, I think straight up Kentucky would have no problem. In fact, I can't wait to get to a state with DraftKings so I can get on that. But that atmosphere is the one thing that can can carry Clinton.

00:22:50
Speaker 2: What's a spread? Do we know it's to us? Or then? Yeah, we got to get to a state. All right, we'll be in Colorado. Twenty two eighty seven, will take across me back here at Carney, Nebraska. It's KSR. Welcome back, It's Kentucky Sports Radio. A lot of good messages coming in on the text machine. Seven seven two seven seven four five two five four. One person writes, Matt if Ryan, if they say he's not a candidate for seapap, maybe he should have his tonsils taken out. That helps some people. If you thought about that, I've never heard of that. Maybe should get your tonsins that they'll give you ice cream.

00:23:25
Speaker 4: I'd be willing to do that if it helps.

00:23:26
Speaker 2: We can find a place in four Collins. Yeah, why don't we just like to do it right now just so that we have a better trip.

00:23:31
Speaker 4: I'm okay with that.

00:23:31
Speaker 2: Let's do this, go ahead and get it locked out right now. Maybe while we're out here. I think that would be good. One person writes, Matt, why do you continue to pick hotels that don't have continental breakfasts? I know that bothersh it does.

00:23:41
Speaker 6: Yeah, I love a continental breakfast. Like right now, my stomach is roaring. I'm just waiting for pennies. But you know, I like to get up and have a little continental breakfast.

00:23:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, but not but you know, I mean, what are you What are you gonna get?

00:23:51
Speaker 6: Eggs, bacon, eggs, biscuits, gravy, hash browns, maybe some yogurt, orange juice, apple Mario likes apple juice, apple juice.

00:24:00
Speaker 7: Use some coffee. I got my coffee. But other than that, you know, this is.

00:24:05
Speaker 2: When did you become such a diva? Like I'm always what you're gonna have tomorrow? You're gonna have a trundle bed, and we're gonna get you some We're gonna get your shu vanilla. We're gonna door dash McDonald's and that's what's gonna happen, and you're gonna like it. So, uh, when Verson rights, Matt, I think you were soft on your interview with Vince. You didn't press him because he's your friend. It was a low moment for k s R. Jeez, well thank you for that. Uh you asked him, I don't know what people want me to do, all right, so let's use the I'm gonna give you an example because when you're driving, as people were saying that, I was thinking about some of that. When I say are you gonna go to Louisville? Or first of all, when I say, you know, are you playing on being back? Yes? What about the rumor about Louisville? He goes, I don't want to comment on that. What would you like me to do? At that point commented on a chicken.

00:24:58
Speaker 13: Like, like, what do you want me to say?

00:25:00
Speaker 2: I would like, I mean, I cannot make the man like he would probably just say the same thing again. Right, So when I say are you going to be back? And he stammers and then say he says yes, what would you like me to do?

00:25:14
Speaker 7: Then go are you sure I mean?

00:25:18
Speaker 13: Or that is that?

00:25:19
Speaker 7: Your final answer is like.

00:25:21
Speaker 2: Another thing people said, well, you know, he said the thing about the offensive line. We have some solid pieces. He mentioned one of the players, and people are like, how could you not press him on that? Do you want me to look at him and go that guy you thinks good, he's not good? I mean, I just don't know what people think the job of a reporter. I'm not even a reporter of an interviewer, isn't that question? Also, I have nine minutes. If I was sitting with him for an hour, that's a different conversation. Normally. You know, I don't like to do interviews on the phone, Okay, for that very reason. You can't look at somebody. It's hard to cut people off on the phone, although I do it callers, but for interviews. I can cut somebody off when I'm looking at him a lot easier than I can cut them off when I'm on the phone, So that makes it hard. You have nine minutes. The other thing is, and this is true of every coach that comes on here, they don't have to do this, right. I think they should. I think it was a mistake for years. Cayle's did, Kyle didn't. But if you come on there and you bright them they'll never come on again. Why would they? Why would they? And then you throw in that yes, I acknowledge he's my friend, but I think people it's really easy online to say you should have burner. But I bet ninety nine percent of people if you were talking to him, you'd ask him for an autograph.

00:26:45
Speaker 4: I mean, let's be real, it's easy to theoretically, it's.

00:26:48
Speaker 2: Another thing when you have to have the conversation with the other person. In my opinion, he answered the questions now where his answer satisfactory clearly not to a lot of people, And honestly, I love the game, but not really to me. But that's him, like, that's his decision and everyone can interpret it the way they want to.

00:27:08
Speaker 9: He seemed a little distracted from the very stout, like I don't know if he was.

00:27:11
Speaker 2: He got a.

00:27:14
Speaker 9: Stot and he was like, hold on a second, So I don't know what was distracting him. Maybe that's why some of these responses were delayed. He was trying to shoot people away.

00:27:20
Speaker 2: I don't know.

00:27:21
Speaker 6: And and to be fair, like you asked him the question to start and you end it with the same questions he said, to be clear, to be clear, and I.

00:27:31
Speaker 2: Ended with that, So you know I am. I am a harsh critic of myself, and so when I have things, I sit there at the end and think, Okay, well what could I have done differently? And I don't just sit there and go, man, you killed it right there. I sit there and think about it. And I went back and listened last night, and I'm not sure what else I could have asked him that wouldn't just me be going being hostile, which if you've listened to show, I'm really not like that to anybody.

00:27:58
Speaker 4: Your second question to him was what do you think went wrong this past season? You had to ask that later?

00:28:03
Speaker 3: Do you ask him what about the culture that people are saying the culture is bad? You ask him that that those questions had to be asked. You did ask them, so you.

00:28:11
Speaker 2: Know there are a lot of people. The one that seemed to get people was when he said that about the offensive line and he said, it's only been one bad Well, again, do you think it would be good for me to take the.

00:28:22
Speaker 4: Player he mentioned?

00:28:23
Speaker 2: Look at him and go, no, I think he's bad.

00:28:26
Speaker 7: I think he knows.

00:28:30
Speaker 2: That's not my job to go. You know.

00:28:32
Speaker 3: So anyway, that interview was not about the offensive line. It was about Vince's potential going to another school and leaders.

00:28:37
Speaker 2: And also if you came out of there, you have, whether good or bad, you have a sense of where his head is one way or the other. And that's you know, that's ultimately what you're trying to do. Who's next, Johnny ROSACEI is next, Johnny Versachi, how are you?

00:28:53
Speaker 13: Oh?

00:28:53
Speaker 14: Great man, I'm somewhat of a sleep abne expert.

00:28:56
Speaker 2: If you would like me, Oh well, sure give it to us because he needs it.

00:29:02
Speaker 15: Well, it depends.

00:29:03
Speaker 14: Uh So, snoring isn't exactly indicative of sleep atnea. It can be, but sleep avene is literally you stop breathing for more than ten seconds at a time. That's at leo ten times an hour.

00:29:20
Speaker 2: Okay, so he doesn't so that you don't do that right, correct? Okay, good? So then now, so then, Johnny, what do you do if someone is snoring like a buffalo? But is it stopping breathing a matter of fact, he's breathing too much?

00:29:36
Speaker 14: Yeah, Well that's you know, again, that's not good for your sleep either. And sleep is extremely right exactly like Mario and Shannon and everybody. But I mean, there are some, there are some. Yeah, there are some treatments that you can do for really bad snoring.

00:30:00
Speaker 2: Well, Ron, you you will endorse anything. You will endorse anything. Yeah, and Johnny, nice to hear from you. I'm pretty sorry about the loss. I know you hated that Saturday as the Louisville hater. You will endorse anything. If someone got you to endorse something that made you not be a water buffalo, would you do it?

00:30:16
Speaker 10: Oh?

00:30:16
Speaker 4: Absolutely, I would definitely look into it.

00:30:17
Speaker 2: Yeah. Would you endorse something that would give you a shirt that doesn't have a rip on it next to your nipple?

00:30:22
Speaker 10: Oh?

00:30:23
Speaker 4: Oh, I see it right there.

00:30:27
Speaker 13: Now.

00:30:27
Speaker 3: Younger girl said, I don't snore as much after I lost someone lost the weight. Like she said, the snory is not as bad as it used to be.

00:30:33
Speaker 2: Do you believe that?

00:30:35
Speaker 7: Well?

00:30:35
Speaker 2: Ryan, have you tried the one with some people like tape their mouth shot?

00:30:39
Speaker 7: No, not done that, But I'm duct taping his mouth shut.

00:30:44
Speaker 2: If I have to sleep with him one night, it may end up happening. Who's next?

00:30:49
Speaker 4: Andrew is next?

00:30:51
Speaker 2: Andrew?

00:30:51
Speaker 16: Go ahead, Andrew, Hey, mat road cruise, Nice talk to you. Uh ninety eight UK grad lived in South Carolina. The best twenty two years i've been to. I will be at the game tonight. I'll have a couple of friends with me. My son, who's actually going to Clemson, will be there as well. I'll tell you right now, I've been to mini games at Little John. It is a tough compact arena. I really compared to the Hump at Mississippi State size and environment. They'll get the calls tonight, so we'll get ready for that one. The good news is they don't have Hall and Gerard was just a he's actually Gerard, the guy that had last year's one the top ten an all time history high school scores. He's gone. But they do have They got a really good guard, Chase Hunter. I mean he's shooting almost fifty percent from three, and I mean big, big score. And they got those two big on brutes inside the shiftland. Yeah he looks like a physics major, but he's really he's really physical, and they got that big brush in dude. So yeah, yeah, and there arson tickets available.

00:31:54
Speaker 2: Well, so that's what I was gonna say. I'm glad you brought that up. That's what I was gonna say. The get in price right now, and I are you going by the way, sir.

00:32:02
Speaker 16: Oh oh, yes, yes, there's three of this going.

00:32:04
Speaker 2: The get in price right now is only fifteen dollars. Wow. So it might not be appreciate the call. It might not be drew the atmosphere that we've assumed. I have people showing me tickets like lower level twenty seven dollars. So maybe if you're in the area, might not be as hard to get in as we thought. Yeah, we don't know that fan base very well. You know, they have the ACC championship Sunday.

00:32:26
Speaker 5: So Dabo still has all their attention right now, and they haven't flipped the switch over to basketball yet with all they have going on this week.

00:32:31
Speaker 3: Just Dabbo trot out at mid court halftime in the game or something tonight probably, So.

00:32:36
Speaker 2: I hope we beat him and then we throw the paw down right at him. He's the worst.

00:32:41
Speaker 9: The good news is for my pope is he could have just recorded that segment just then and played it to the team and they just write down down.

00:32:47
Speaker 2: It would be more of a breakdown than they got last year before they gat absolutely Who's up next?

00:32:52
Speaker 4: Tim is up next?

00:32:53
Speaker 2: Tim? Go ahead?

00:32:54
Speaker 15: Tim, Hey, Matt, don't beat yourself up on that Vincent. I listened, and I thought it was perfectly fine. As long as I mean, you ask the questions, he can answer him however he wants.

00:33:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I don't get me wrong, I didn't, but there were people who are usually pretty big fans of the show just acting like we had lost or I'd lost my mind during that interview. So I just went back to see is there something I'm missing here? And I went back and honestly, I don't know what I would have done differently except just go no, and like, I don't think that's good. I don't think that's a very good thing for an interviewer to do.

00:33:33
Speaker 15: Nick Coffee wrote a Twitter article this morning about why the SEC is so much more dominant than the ACC their twelve and one this year some of my in basketball, and the consensus was that the SEC is just a better college experience for those kids that are choosing between saying Old Miss and a Pittsburgh or a Syracuse and a South I agree with that.

00:34:01
Speaker 2: I totally agree with that.

00:34:04
Speaker 15: A South Carolina game, they're going to South Carolina. I'm in South Carolina right now. It's way too.

00:34:09
Speaker 13: Cold to go to a basketball game. Enjoy your trip.

00:34:11
Speaker 2: Fellers appreciate it. I actually do agree with that. I think, I think and I hadn't thought about it like that, but Max, it's more fun to go to an SEC school than most ACC schools. Absolutely, I mean Kentucky Louisville has a much better on campus and atmosphere than it did twenty years ago. But it's not Kentucky.

00:34:29
Speaker 9: That's so much more fun to be in the SEC, and the weather so much better. I mean, you end up going up to those places now. Some people like the cold. I definitely do not. I don't think the majority of people do. I think he just said it was too cold to go to a basketball game. It's indoors, so I'm sure to be silent, but sac for sure.

00:34:46
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, look at the ACC schools, Pitt Boston College, Syracuse. You know, you get very few college towns in the ACC. Virginia is a college town, Virginia Tech, Chapel Hill, Duke, but a lot of places aren't. And I hadn't thought about it like that, but I think it's a good point. Clayton and crom Shannon was founded on a simple idea. What's that all leather goods? Should last a life.

00:35:09
Speaker 7: I agree.

00:35:09
Speaker 2: They make everything from bags, belts, wallets, and much more. And at best they're doing it right here in Kentucky or right there in Kentucky. I'm in Nebraska. Clayton and Crom at crummy dot com. Visit their flagship store in Louisville two sixteen South Shelby Street, located in Nulu. Quality leather goods from Clayton and Krom built to Why have.

00:35:29
Speaker 7: Their wallet right here? Look at that? It has lasted ever since I got it.

00:35:32
Speaker 2: It's lasted your life like ten years. Yeah, man, you got at least ten more.

00:35:36
Speaker 7: So maybe you know.

00:35:38
Speaker 2: We'll take a break right back. It's Kentucky Sports Radio. Rick continuing to come with the hits here on Kentucky Sports Radio. My keys, Yes, I like it, Rick bringing the music U eight five nine two twenty two eighty seven, text machine seven seven two seven seven four five two five four one person rights Matt. People always ask who you'd want to play golf with or have dinner with. I'll take the opposite. Who would be your worst people to have dinner with? I assume Trump and Dabbo are two of them. Dabbo maybe Trump? No, I mean I don't like him at all as a leader, but at a dinner, I actually think he would be entertaining for his absurdity. So I actually and plus you, it's a former president, so there might be I mean, I feel like he just tell you whatever happened, you know what I mean. I feel like he just he just let it fly. So so so he would be interesting for a dinner. I think if you're talking about dinner like the worst from a political standpoint, it's Ted Cruz uh Dabbo's good. Aaron Rodgers, that's a good one. And I don't know. Somebody who's just really boring but likes to hear themselves talk would be someone I would I'm trying to think. I have to think of who is who's yours?

00:36:58
Speaker 6: Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong un. Nobody would understand anybody.

00:37:03
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh you're worried. They just don't speak the same, you know.

00:37:07
Speaker 7: I feel like they're probably not good leaders, and I don't think I would like that.

00:37:11
Speaker 2: I like the idea you're partially considering whether you can understand what they said.

00:37:15
Speaker 6: Yes, and if they're gonna kill me at the end of the dinner. I mean they might get poisoned. Now, yeah, you get poisoned.

00:37:22
Speaker 2: I bet you Ryan, who's gonna be in yours? Jim Host?

00:37:25
Speaker 4: He would did somebody enjoy being with Yes? I think though you and Trump would enjoy playing golf together. You watch foot wedge pick it up.

00:37:38
Speaker 2: There's some cheating. It's just pick up from five feet in. I'm not stealing it. I just I let them know, Drew, it's happening.

00:37:44
Speaker 5: Sometimes or sometimes the rest of your group's in the fairway waiting to hit their approach shots.

00:37:49
Speaker 2: I do play off a degree. I do finished the hole quickly.

00:37:52
Speaker 4: You did you and Trump to play eighteen holes in in.

00:37:55
Speaker 2: The United States? What about you? Who would you not want at your dinner?

00:37:58
Speaker 5: I'm struggling because even people I don't like, I think it would be funny to have dinner with them.

00:38:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. Someone you just mentioned that lives nearby, and Omaha, I probably would enjoy that. You wouldn't dinner. You know, I'm not an aggressive person, that's true. Might flip a table over in that setting. He's the fourth one for me. That's a really good call. We we won't mention his name, although I did earlier, but he would be the fourth What about you? You're you're a pretty harsh person, am I. I don't know.

00:38:23
Speaker 9: Dabo would be out there. There's a guy on SPN that used to be a specialist. He'd be out there. Of guys I would not want to be.

00:38:30
Speaker 2: He's on TV a lot.

00:38:32
Speaker 9: He is a little bit, but he's just not that funny and his opinions on that great, Shannon.

00:38:38
Speaker 2: I always like to do this, you know about once every year UK players put out a song. Oh yes, and when they put out a song, nobody's better at grading UK songs before we play this one. In the past, what do you think has been the best and worst UK related song?

00:38:54
Speaker 7: There hasn't been the best one. The worst one was to teach me about Kentucky like there was nothing. It was even kind of good.

00:39:01
Speaker 2: Now there's a new one. Yeah. Our advertiser, Clark's Pumping Shop has got Lamont Butler doing a rap about Clark's Pumping Shop Clarks And in the video Lamont Butler is with Andrew Carr and Jackson Robinson, but the rapping is all Lamont Butler. Now this is thirty seconds, Shannon. I consider you you're the music guy. I consider you the expert on songs about Kentucky. Let's play. I pump and I Shop by Lamon Boat.

00:39:32
Speaker 17: I'm rolling on the empty Holley. If you feel me gonna make up this stuff? Got my voice, car Robinson rolling with me. I pump my gas, I grabbed my snacks. I'm saving cast my Clark's Pumping Shop A bump, Yeah, he shot.

00:39:47
Speaker 2: I pump and shot. I use the app, so bump and shot. Use Clark's Pumping Shop app to earn. What do you think, Shannon? I pump, I shop. I use the app to pump. What was the year?

00:40:01
Speaker 17: Yeah?

00:40:02
Speaker 7: Could you do that at the very beginning? What was that background? It wasn't. I mean, it was better than teaching about in Tucky.

00:40:09
Speaker 2: But it wasn't.

00:40:09
Speaker 7: It still wasn't great, was it? I mean, do you guys?

00:40:12
Speaker 2: I feel like last night after I heard it, I kept going, I pump, okay, pomp I shop.

00:40:19
Speaker 4: It's awful.

00:40:21
Speaker 3: When you see the video that even just even enforces the fact that it's awful.

00:40:25
Speaker 2: See, I'm giving it a good solid B plus. I like it, Max.

00:40:29
Speaker 9: I actually think it's got to catchy too, Like I was kind of bomping into it a little bit.

00:40:33
Speaker 2: I like it. I like the song.

00:40:36
Speaker 5: I give the song a B plus, but the video takes it up to a solid A for me. Video is awesome videos. The lights are turned off in Clark.

00:40:43
Speaker 2: He's pumping and chopping. He uses the app Ja your.

00:40:46
Speaker 5: Carr has like ten bags of chips at the counter because he's just balling.

00:40:50
Speaker 6: It sounds as good as any other rap song that I've heard on the radio in the last twenty years.

00:40:55
Speaker 2: And that's not the bar is not that high. You're the official girl.

00:40:59
Speaker 7: I'll give it a be. It's good. It's not great, it's good.

00:41:02
Speaker 2: He uses the app And that is how in iol was supposed to be. Not here's your collective back buy out, make.

00:41:08
Speaker 7: A rap and it helps that it's you know, about a company that we endorse.

00:41:12
Speaker 2: It's up next.

00:41:14
Speaker 4: Rick Kentucky Joe is next.

00:41:16
Speaker 7: We'll speaking of singers.

00:41:17
Speaker 2: Se Tucky Joe.

00:41:18
Speaker 13: Go ahead, Yeah, it's it's it's a Kentucky Joe approved a rap song.

00:41:24
Speaker 2: Well that's what they were hoping for.

00:41:27
Speaker 7: Yees.

00:41:29
Speaker 13: Well, things that happened in my life. But there comes a heat on.

00:41:36
Speaker 16: But take your time.

00:41:40
Speaker 2: We have thirty seconds, so anytime. Go ahead and tell us about the heat and the cool in your room.

00:41:46
Speaker 13: The heat just came on, my little farman the time you're in, Joe, that's a Turkey wins tonight seventy sixty seven. Uh. I think I think coach did stay. And it's gonna have to give a new offensive coordinator. That's that's I think that's what we need. We need new offensive coordinator. The big brute wall never developed. And h I'll probably do a Christmas song here down the road here.

00:42:17
Speaker 2: Well, that's something for everybody to look forward to. Thank you, Joe. We will take a break, come back. Our number two here in Carnia, Nebraska, it's KSR
