00:01:36
Speaker 5: I didn't know that.

00:01:37
Speaker 4: I've enjoyed some curling. It's a little it's a little slow, I mean, but.

00:01:42
Speaker 5: I enjoyed the play by play guys. I could hear them while we were setting up getting watching complay by play this event.

00:01:47
Speaker 3: It's got to be it's their long matches.

00:01:49
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they do a lot of sweeping and uh, you know Trancy uh has a curling did you know them do they? Yeah, Trancy has a or at least they did I assume that they haven't gotten rid of that.

00:02:00
Speaker 3: But Transit had a curling.

00:02:02
Speaker 6: Nice also shout out Transy ten in a row last night.

00:02:09
Speaker 3: Wow, Okay, that's exciting.

00:02:10
Speaker 6: They don't honor the curling team even have them.

00:02:12
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know if they still have I just know they had it because there was a guy on the curling team. I knew that I would have never imagine even had watched a sport.

00:02:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he ended.

00:02:22
Speaker 4: Up on the curling team, and I was I was impressed. So I we're gonna talk about a lot of stuff. Ask anything Thursday, Okay, all right, so you can ask anything, and it's a good time to call. I'm willing to interact with you today because we've got a lot of little things but no big thing. Eight five nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven. I came to the realization about something this morning that I feel like I need to confess.

00:02:46
Speaker 5: Okay, so confession time.

00:02:48
Speaker 4: I realized this morning right before I came here. The worst You know how I always say that online.

00:02:56
Speaker 3: You are the worst version of yourself.

00:02:58
Speaker 4: So like, whatever is the trait you have that is the worst, it comes out online. And I actually think that's true, especially if you're an anonymous account. But really at all, I don't think that's true for me.

00:03:10
Speaker 3: Though.

00:03:12
Speaker 4: The worst version of myself is in line at McDonald's. I wondered, here we go, I felt at Bruin that's the worst version of me because I start to have traits that I don't want to think I have in the line at McDonald's, such as I get mad at particular people, groups of people. I make statements that I wouldn't make anywhere else. Waiting for someone to get through the drive.

00:03:45
Speaker 2: Do you go on them? Like are you raising your voice of me?

00:03:49
Speaker 3: A little bit?

00:03:50
Speaker 4: Today I found myself I honked a horn and I said, why am I doing that? I know I've got plenty of time, but I I.

00:04:00
Speaker 3: I grow impatient, I grow frustrated.

00:04:03
Speaker 4: So today you get there long double line, very rare on Harrisburg Road. I'm not gonna talk about the other group, but there's a very rare, but the one on Harrisburg Road just so efficient, long double line. Then you have the moment that that every week will perplex me. Which line do I get in yes a decision, and usually speaking, I judge by what cars are in each line. Does this look like a fast car? And I don't mean like Porsche? Like are these people gonna be annoying me?

00:04:34
Speaker 3: Gonna be a head count of who's in the car?

00:04:36
Speaker 4: You have to do a head count, but you have to remember on the outside that line's gonna be shorter because they got farther to go. So you have to quickly make a decision. And when you make the wrong decision, it's gotta be what a failed marriage feels like. There's just stuck in it. There has to be long yes and longing regret.

00:04:55
Speaker 6: And like if you recognize the bar behind you go first, you get.

00:04:58
Speaker 4: The furiates me more then if a car that initially came after me goes through before, it's like they beat you.

00:05:07
Speaker 3: You lost that.

00:05:07
Speaker 4: It's not that I'm upset at them. They didn't do one thing wrong, but I'm mad at them. How dare you be one spot ahead of me? They won the challenge, They won the challenge, and I'm disappointed myself. I had these two choices and I went the wrong way again. It's got to be what it's like with marriage. I didn't go out a thing. I didn't same sense. And then the people on my team, this has got to be what it's like at Daytona. You know what Daytona. You're drafted. If you get behind the wrong car, you must hate them. And now I can see why people want to put them in the wall. Shit, you know, give them a love toe. Yeah, I got in the line there. There are about six different types of people I don't like in McDonald's line, but number one is the person who.

00:05:52
Speaker 3: Orders too much food. Yeah, all right, you are at McDonald's. First of all. When you get to the line, there should be no question.

00:06:01
Speaker 5: Right, I mean you didn't change overnight.

00:06:03
Speaker 4: What questions do you have at McDonald's, Like, like, it's the it's been the same for seventy five years.

00:06:09
Speaker 2: Yea machine down today.

00:06:11
Speaker 4: Okay, that's fine, but that's a quick answer. What and by the way, no substitutions. McDonald's is not a place you can't have it your way. It's also breakfast. There's not even that much to take off. Shut up and order the food.

00:06:28
Speaker 3: I was with someone one time.

00:06:29
Speaker 6: It was my first experience in the drive through them, and I swear they ordered their McDonald's burger midray and asked for grilled on your I wanted to get out of the car speak to them again.

00:06:39
Speaker 3: I'm like, who are you?

00:06:40
Speaker 4: Okay, I'll give you. If you order a burger, you can say no pickles, that's it. That's it, okay, and then you move on and then you move on. Shut up, all right. This is not just say the number. Just yeah, there are ten numbers.

00:06:54
Speaker 3: Pick one, all right.

00:06:56
Speaker 4: So I get really mad. And if your car, you can order for you, and you could order for one other person. If you have your kids, man, it better bequ We just get them all happy meals and shut.

00:07:07
Speaker 5: Up, kick kicking nugge happy meals.

00:07:08
Speaker 3: All right. But when I see a long tab ry it drives me. Uh huh. All right, so that's number one. So the first guy.

00:07:15
Speaker 5: Had that had the long menu on the screen.

00:07:18
Speaker 4: Yes, infuriating guy behind it on his phone, so like takes a millisecond to pull it doesn't pull up as quick.

00:07:28
Speaker 3: Yeah. The other line passes, Oh he's on his phone. Yeah, now.

00:07:34
Speaker 4: I'm gonna confess something. Please don't tell anyone. I've been on my phone before when I was no.

00:07:41
Speaker 5: Now, quit beating yourself up like that I have.

00:07:46
Speaker 4: I'm not proud of it. I do it significantly less now than I used to. I have, I have, I very dialed it back and won't do it uh in ninety eight percent of the times, but you know, drive through line.

00:08:00
Speaker 3: I will.

00:08:01
Speaker 4: But I'm really angry if someone else does it, because I'm a pro. Ryan at look up, look down, look look up.

00:08:07
Speaker 5: She don't lose your spot.

00:08:08
Speaker 3: But if you're the person that's like typing a.

00:08:10
Speaker 5: Long node, could get passed.

00:08:14
Speaker 7: Hog.

00:08:16
Speaker 5: She honked at him to day.

00:08:17
Speaker 4: I howked, he got startled, looked up, drove forward. Problem solved.

00:08:23
Speaker 5: I think, oh no, there's more.

00:08:27
Speaker 4: Next one on his phone. He's it's his turn, gets passed. We've now been passed by two cars.

00:08:34
Speaker 5: Ryan, devastating news Hog.

00:08:39
Speaker 4: He looks out and I this is the part I'm ashamed about. And I'm sorry I went get off your phone.

00:08:49
Speaker 3: And he looks at me like what?

00:08:53
Speaker 4: And I felt bad because there are moments I gotta remember I am a semi public figure. Yeah, I cannot be the guy screaming at people.

00:09:03
Speaker 3: People. I can't be yelling.

00:09:06
Speaker 4: But he was in a suit and tie, so he's probably the kind of person I wouldn't like anyway.

00:09:11
Speaker 6: Yeah, you should be wearing a suit and town a week day.

00:09:13
Speaker 3: First of all, suit and ties.

00:09:14
Speaker 4: If you're wearing a suit and tower, you're not allowed at McDonald's. That's a hoodie place, am I right? That's not a suit and tie place. That's a hoodie place. So I'm not gonna apologize to him because he didn't get off his stupid phone, but I apologize in general to humanity and myself. I'm the worst version of myself in these McDonald's line Do you think you get.

00:09:36
Speaker 6: Angry because you haven't had your food yet in the morning.

00:09:38
Speaker 3: It's just I don't like inefficiency. I hate lines. That's the thing. I had time.

00:09:44
Speaker 4: I usually get through the line, pull over and work on the final parts of the show.

00:09:48
Speaker 3: Today I was writing some trivia questions. It's not about time.

00:09:52
Speaker 4: I hate inefficiency, I hate lines, and I hate when people don't.

00:09:57
Speaker 3: Do their part for the collective good to get through the wine.

00:10:00
Speaker 5: You know, we've been doing this show for a long time together, and the only time I feel you get really frustrated has been in the McDonald's drive through line, the one in Louisville and now the one in Lexington seems to frustrate you more than anything else.

00:10:10
Speaker 3: I think.

00:10:11
Speaker 4: And I because lines to me are being in a line because you're trapped, Shannon, that's it, Like I lose my self control.

00:10:19
Speaker 3: I don't. I can't get out.

00:10:20
Speaker 2: You can always get out of your car and walk inside the building.

00:10:24
Speaker 4: But I can't leave my car in the drive through line. When somebody's in front of you and behind you, You're just trapped. That's why I don't like car washes.

00:10:33
Speaker 3: Hey, car washes too.

00:10:34
Speaker 6: I was just in one, but we saw mc McClain there.

00:10:37
Speaker 3: He was washing his car.

00:10:37
Speaker 4: When you get on that thing, you're just stuck, you know what. And if it like you're just kind.

00:10:42
Speaker 5: Of you gotta bite the bullet and ride it out.

00:10:44
Speaker 3: And now I'm here and they are all these you're frustrated. They are these monsters attacking me outside of the car.

00:10:51
Speaker 6: Have you ever you mentioned in racing and put them in the wall. Did you ever think about between window one and window two putting someone in the wall, Like you're not you're not liking the traffic flow.

00:10:59
Speaker 3: No, I don't. I don't want. I don't need to hurt my car. It's brand new.

00:11:02
Speaker 4: But but anyway, So I'm not I don't need people writing the text machine and going you're impatient. I know I'm confessing my sins that I'm the worst version of myself on on on there.

00:11:14
Speaker 5: So if you're let's just play this out. I've I've been in this situation. Guys on the phone in one lane, you're waiting on him in the next lane. Do you go ahead and go in front of him? Or do you hank him, like, hey, budd.

00:11:24
Speaker 3: If you're hearing from him.

00:11:25
Speaker 5: I'm stone, you know, if you're that guy, if you're the guy like waiting, do you hank him to let him Hey dude, you.

00:11:30
Speaker 3: Hear their line?

00:11:31
Speaker 5: Yeah?

00:11:31
Speaker 3: No, it's every line for itself.

00:11:34
Speaker 4: I do appreciate that. I'm not the other line. It's a problem between me and the guy in the suit. That's the problem, all right. I'm nine to eight oh twenty eighty seven. Last night watched Arkansas and Auburn. I only bring this. First of all, a couple things about the game. Great game, maybe one of.

00:11:53
Speaker 5: The best games of this of the year.

00:11:54
Speaker 4: No, I mean, I can't think of a better one. Awesome double overtime could have been triple overtime. Guy made the dunk. You know, it's funny. The cal uh col into game stuff. You know we've talked about we were so deep. He continues to be like, always not deep, and he ends up playing two.

00:12:14
Speaker 3: Guys who haven't played all year.

00:12:16
Speaker 4: At the end of the game, I did think Jimmy Dyke's exaggerated a little Shannon when he kept being like, these guys might not even know basketball. He acted like neither of them ever played the sport before. They were like, they don't I bet they don't even know the plays. Remember when he did that with the dude from.

00:12:34
Speaker 5: Tennesse doesn't even know.

00:12:37
Speaker 4: I mean, Jimmy gets a little like excited with the idea that these people are just if how were their parents, I'd be like, he is a functional human.

00:12:46
Speaker 5: He goes to every practice every day.

00:12:48
Speaker 6: Snokes was great. I remember him yelling they're teaching him how to stress. Ever before Jimmy gets a little exaggerating.

00:12:58
Speaker 4: I don't know why cow didn't shoot a At the end, they were down too, and they obviously didn't want to go to another overtime.

00:13:03
Speaker 5: Why not? Why not? You know, in the game and winning, you've got two basically walk ons out there out of your five players, try don't win the game, and he got a chance.

00:13:11
Speaker 3: But it was a great game and Arkansas loses.

00:13:15
Speaker 4: So now Alabama, there's a had we won, this is what's frustrating. Had we beaten Georgia, we'd still be in second place in the SEC because with that loss, and we remember we have a tiebreaker on Arkansas.

00:13:29
Speaker 5: Yeah, so we would.

00:13:30
Speaker 4: Have been in second place in the SEC and in a position to still you know, be able to have our kind of have our path. And so that loss in some ways last night, Arkansas losing made that loss more frustrating than me on Tuesday.

00:13:45
Speaker 5: Hurts even more now you can say it like that. Man, the Acuff kid was awesome last night, and Hubbard was awesome form Missisippi State had.

00:13:51
Speaker 3: Forty six for Mississippi State.

00:13:53
Speaker 5: Yeah, thirty five at half time.

00:13:55
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was.

00:13:56
Speaker 6: Thirty five to thirty three and a half time Hubbard and Auburn.

00:13:59
Speaker 3: Hubbard had nine to threes shinning at halftime last.

00:14:02
Speaker 2: That was insane.

00:14:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's insane.

00:14:04
Speaker 2: Thirty five points, yeah and half time at half time.

00:14:08
Speaker 3: He's Chris Jackson numbers back in the day for LSU.

00:14:12
Speaker 6: His last three games were thirty one thirty two and then forty whatever he had last night.

00:14:16
Speaker 4: That can if he played anywhere but Mississippi State would be a huge nationwise.

00:14:20
Speaker 3: Agree he is, he got one more year?

00:14:23
Speaker 5: Yeah, man, Mark Pope, you want to bring somebody, bring him in.

00:14:27
Speaker 2: Bring him forty six points and still didn't have the best night.

00:14:30
Speaker 4: I know everybody they really should like because they should try to get him here.

00:14:36
Speaker 6: You have to roll him in a little bit. I love watching him. It is he basically is a one man show and he has to be. He would have to dial that back here, but he's fun. I would love to have him one and he said he did a tweet about Reed Shepherd after they played his freshman They went to, oh yeah, it made me like him.

00:14:49
Speaker 4: Then it was like a handshake. You have something to say, is it good? And just a question for you? All right, well let's save it. Okay, after break If I'm nine twenty two eighty seven, we'll take a break, very backs Cansler run back in is Kentucky Sports Radio AF I'm nine two eight twenty two eighty seven. The text machine is seven seven two four five two five four Ask anything Thursday again? When you talk about McDonald's you get a lot of like that gets more comments than the game. It That's why you know it's not rocket science, folks. That's why I talk about other stuff when I talk about basketball.

00:15:25
Speaker 5: Stick to sports Man, stick to.

00:15:26
Speaker 3: Donald That's right.

00:15:27
Speaker 4: One person writes, Matt uh or Pat Rights, I need to know how having Ryan as your realtor was yesterday. Yesterday was my first full rhyme realtor experience. We've seen a couple other houses, but like, I'm I'm serious about this one and really considering it.

00:15:43
Speaker 3: Uh it's a house full of bubble screens and so.

00:15:46
Speaker 4: Uh so I'm I'm like, I'm serious about you like that one.

00:15:52
Speaker 3: I did like that one.

00:15:54
Speaker 5: Didn't see that one coming.

00:15:55
Speaker 4: He does, like surprisingly, Shannon, a professional job.

00:15:59
Speaker 2: Oh really kept on this time.

00:16:00
Speaker 3: Well, the realtor for the for the seller was not there, so it's just me and Ryan. So like he did.

00:16:05
Speaker 4: He didn't have to be as professional as I thought, but he like he know, he knows what to point out. He's like, you look at this, and then you think about this, and then you do a hooftie who here and and yeah, and I was like, you don't worry about that.

00:16:19
Speaker 3: I'm good.

00:16:19
Speaker 4: I got that we can handle all this and we we talked, so he did. It was nice to see Ryan in his professional role yesterday.

00:16:27
Speaker 6: I also use Ryan Ryan's best thing in the process. As you'll find if you keep looking, any hour of the night doesn't matter than five minutes. Notice, he's like, yeah, I can be right there because I looked at a lot of houses and Ryan was great at every tour we did.

00:16:40
Speaker 4: Yeah, well this checks a lot of boxes for me in terms of location and privacy and uh, you know, I don't know, Shannon, do you The one thing I'm worried about is you know, neighbors.

00:16:54
Speaker 3: To investigate these people that would be next to me.

00:16:56
Speaker 2: You should get a knock on the door, go introduce yourselves, say out content.

00:17:00
Speaker 3: I mean, like, is this person going to be somebody?

00:17:03
Speaker 6: It's important matters.

00:17:04
Speaker 5: I tell people all the time. Find out you don't want to live next door to Fred Sandford or a house that's got like five dogs. Well you know he had a junk yard there Ay's house.

00:17:13
Speaker 3: Well, these people didn't look to have a junk yard.

00:17:15
Speaker 5: But like, I don't know, you want to live next somebody's got like five dogs or some chickens out there?

00:17:19
Speaker 3: I would checked the dog park.

00:17:20
Speaker 2: Probably a Kentucky coach. You may know them.

00:17:23
Speaker 3: Well there there are coaches in the neighborhood.

00:17:26
Speaker 4: But this is but yeah, but you did a good job, so I think I did want to compliment you on that.

00:17:32
Speaker 3: What happens with this You did a good job.

00:17:35
Speaker 5: Thank you, Because I left and I told Jennifer on the way home, I said, this is the first house I've really seen Matt get excited about you, and we've seen what maybe half a dozen of them. Yeah, you can tell you more full socks for I did.

00:17:46
Speaker 6: That's when you know he's serious.

00:17:47
Speaker 4: That's when I knew you thought it was a good house because you you went ahead more like a full compliment of clothing.

00:17:53
Speaker 5: They got some all the spot for all matched tools in the garage for.

00:17:58
Speaker 4: Tools shy, Yeah, I all of my tools will be taken care of.

00:18:03
Speaker 2: Just put your all your shoes there where the tools would be.

00:18:06
Speaker 6: Oh there's but how big is the yard? That's what I'll worry about with you. I see you at the yard. Get at it's a pool.

00:18:11
Speaker 3: But I'll mean.

00:18:14
Speaker 4: I'll have I'll get people to do because there's a lot of bushes and I don't do a lot of pruning or what do you call it landscaping.

00:18:23
Speaker 6: That's because you hadn't had room for your tools.

00:18:25
Speaker 3: But now I'll get somebody to do do that. So what was your question?

00:18:30
Speaker 5: I noticed last night?

00:18:31
Speaker 3: I was about to forget what I was.

00:18:33
Speaker 5: I noticed last night that Darius Acuff I think, played fifty minutes. I don't think he got fatigued. I'm wondering, you know, why can't our guys play thirty minutes.

00:18:43
Speaker 3: I don't want to think about it.

00:18:45
Speaker 4: I watched Darius Acuff play fifty minutes and he missed the last shot, but it wasn't short.

00:18:49
Speaker 3: He was right there. You know, if Darius.

00:18:52
Speaker 4: Acuff can play fifty away, Chandler and Aberdeen can play thirty five, thirty six.

00:18:59
Speaker 6: Hubbard had forty. They meet ot he played the whole game.

00:19:02
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just I don't buy Marx.

00:19:04
Speaker 4: I just don't buy the whole notion that these guys, you know, the numbers say blah blah blah, get him in shape.

00:19:11
Speaker 5: It's mid February, they should be in shape.

00:19:13
Speaker 4: I mean, I think Rick Patino's ninety two team didn't allow those guys play the whole game.

00:19:18
Speaker 3: Pretty much. I'm like Mashbourn would probably play the whole game, didn't he.

00:19:21
Speaker 5: I'm sure they did a lot of minutes. Travis Fordnell's guys.

00:19:24
Speaker 2: Mulso Richie used to say that the game day was a day off because it compares, Yeah, it didn't compare it all to the practice.

00:19:30
Speaker 3: They Yeah, I just I think that is.

00:19:33
Speaker 4: You know, he can say all he wants that the performance goes down, but the question numerically for me is not. Here's the question. Is it likely the case that after thirty seven minutes Oway would be a slightly less version of Oway? I can believe that answer might be yes, But that's not the question. The question is is that slightly less version of Oway better than what replaces him in the rest of the game? Right, So if it's a ninety percent oh way, but a ninety percent oh way is better than one hundred percent Jasper, you want the ninety percent oh way?

00:20:11
Speaker 3: Right Like? That's the point.

00:20:13
Speaker 4: The question is not is the individual less? It's that do you have something that's better than that? And the answer, at least on this team is no.

00:20:21
Speaker 3: I do not think you do.

00:20:22
Speaker 6: So give me the ninety percent oh way. I completely agree and with the game this day. There are so many stopages. We don't have two hour games anymore. There are reviews, media time out. There are plenty of breaks in a basketball game that someone should be able to handle a plan nearly every minute if they need to.

00:20:38
Speaker 4: And in the tournament it's even more. In the tournament, it's even more breaks. The the.

00:20:44
Speaker 3: Commercial breaks are like a minute longer in the tournament.

00:20:47
Speaker 4: That was one of the things I always thought used to get a cow when when we would have like death is and I remember him he would sometimes have death and sometimes he wouldn't.

00:20:58
Speaker 3: But I do remember him once.

00:21:00
Speaker 4: I think the year we won the title, when we only had six guys, he was like, well, the tournament timeouts are so long, yeah, that ultimately it doesn't matter.

00:21:07
Speaker 6: And if you get Doug Shehalls, you're getting probably thirty extra minutes a break while he's at the monument.

00:21:11
Speaker 4: I think halftime is like five or ten more minutes longer in the in the final four.

00:21:15
Speaker 5: And then that So I want to ask you one more thing about that game last night. They called a goaltending call and they reviewed it, and then somebody from New York must have called him on their cell phone.

00:21:24
Speaker 4: I honestly didn't know that was a thing. Yeah, so they reviewed a goaltending call. They kept the call on the court and then they said someone in Birmingham called him up and said flippant the other one. Yes, I didn't know that was a thing. Did you know that Burming there's a Birmingham.

00:21:41
Speaker 3: Speed dial that says flip it.

00:21:43
Speaker 5: I think they ended up getting the call rot I think so. I've never seen call come in after they'd already ruled on it, ruled on the review, then the call goes in and they changed it back.

00:21:51
Speaker 3: Did you know there was a Birmingham No?

00:21:53
Speaker 6: And if they're gonna get it right, we should be leaning on Birmingham more often.

00:21:57
Speaker 3: You know. I don't love that in principle, but if they're get.

00:22:00
Speaker 4: It right, and I'm okay with Birmingham being involved, but then why isn't Birmingham the review on everything? I mean, I have always thought it was stupid, especially in the NFL. Now they've changed this, but remember when the NFL rests would go and like, look at this little timey TV.

00:22:16
Speaker 3: And I would always go, we have big screens.

00:22:19
Speaker 4: Why are we making him look through a projector? Like it looked like when you pay money and you can see Niagara Falls through a little thing, I thought, why is the screen so big? I could firmly believe that the referees on the court where you have a screen, people are screaming at you. It might be better for someone in another place to make the call. In the NFL, all reviews are done off the field.

00:22:43
Speaker 5: Right, so that where college basketball is headed, you have to be consistent.

00:22:47
Speaker 3: I don't think you can just do it willy nilly right.

00:22:50
Speaker 6: Like a phone a friend.

00:22:51
Speaker 3: I'm gonna use my one Birmingham here.

00:22:52
Speaker 4: I had no idea that that you could paint someone to Birmingham and they would give you.

00:22:57
Speaker 3: They would give you the call. We'll take a break, take care. It's right after this. TJ. Smith, personal injury attorney, called TJ.

00:23:04
Speaker 2: He'll make them pay. No more of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage.

00:23:09
Speaker 3: Here's Matt Jones, a little late career Tracy Laarne shon.

00:23:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, still good stuff though.

00:23:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would go see Tracy Larnce. Is he alive? Yeah?

00:23:19
Speaker 2: I don't think he's died yet, Okay, I.

00:23:22
Speaker 4: Was hoping he's a lot. Yeah, I mean, he definitely's playing renfro Valley. Yeah, so the Bourbon and Beyond thing came out, Shannon, the lineup Bourbon and Beyond lineup? First of all, did they just make it for people that grew up in the nineties, Yes, it feels like is that the is that the demo is people who grew up in the nineties?

00:23:44
Speaker 2: I think so Louder than Life is probably a little bit of a younger crowd.

00:23:47
Speaker 4: Yeah, because I mean, here are the eight Headliners, food Fighters, I'm in I'm in First Night, Foo Fighters, Queens.

00:23:54
Speaker 3: Of the Stone Age. That's like, isn't it Who's Queens of Stone Isn't that?

00:23:59
Speaker 8: Like?

00:24:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it, that's what they do.

00:24:02
Speaker 3: But is that not the song? Then the.

00:24:05
Speaker 2: Song that probably everybody knows.

00:24:08
Speaker 3: Play it in the next time. It's gonna be exactly what I said, Uh, I just like it.

00:24:13
Speaker 4: Mumford and Sons and Big, Casey Musgraves in Big, Chris Stapleton in red In, Dave Matthews Man kind of in Hoody.

00:24:46

00:24:47
Speaker 6: Feels like a KSR group out again.

00:24:48
Speaker 3: Oh yes, I like, I actually like.

00:24:51
Speaker 4: I don't like Darius Rutger the country singer, but I do like Hoody and the blow Amen. So I've never seen Hoody play since I went in like the late nineties. When they do this, Does he play Hoody the Blowfish songs? Or do I have to listen to his craft?

00:25:05
Speaker 3: Oh?

00:25:05
Speaker 5: No, they play all their Hoody the blow They don't.

00:25:07
Speaker 3: He doesn't sing his stuff? Does he? Does he sing like his version?

00:25:11
Speaker 5: I haven't seen their new Hooty the Blowfish tour, but I know they they do play all their hits, But I don't want to hear.

00:25:16
Speaker 3: His solo stuff.

00:25:17
Speaker 6: I don't think you disrespect the Blowfish like that. They don't want to be up there listening to that.

00:25:20
Speaker 3: Now, if you're telling me I get to hear him, go oh.

00:25:24
Speaker 5: And you can probably him, you know when he does Purple Rain at the song.

00:25:28
Speaker 3: Only want to be with You all the hits? Yeah?

00:25:31
Speaker 4: So I love it, and even the people below Counting Crows, Come on, are you kidding me? Lisa Lobe and the Nine Stories, four non Blondes. They're still going, yeah, going on.

Speaker 4: Dude, I'm in I might Shannon go to every one of these. Portugal, Portugal the man?

00:26:15
Speaker 2: How about Joan Osborne? What if God was one of us?

00:26:17
Speaker 3: What if God was?

00:26:20
Speaker 2: Where have all the cowboys gone?

00:26:23
Speaker 4: It's literally like a nineties thing. Awesome, Joan jet you don't kind of have the hots for her.

00:26:29
Speaker 3: We saw.

00:26:33
Speaker 2: The greatest national anthem of all time. The Fray will be there.

00:26:39
Speaker 6: I've been shouting out the creakers on this show. They're on there in tiny font on Saturday. I believe I'm excited to see them. Wait a minute, is Paula Cole is that? Where have all the cowboys? That's fur pipe?

00:26:51
Speaker 3: Freshman?

00:26:51
Speaker 2: We were merely freshmen.

00:26:52
Speaker 5: We were merely fresh man.

00:26:54
Speaker 3: Should we just camp?

00:26:55
Speaker 4: Did they literally just go to like turn on the nineties station and whoever came on, they invited.

00:27:01
Speaker 5: They were smart, they did that.

00:27:03
Speaker 2: How about nine days? This is the story of a girl.

00:27:06
Speaker 3: This is the story so that one's coming to. Yeah, that's awesome, so shout out.

00:27:11
Speaker 4: I can't imagine anyone in their twenties, like I can't imagine Mario going to this, but for me, what an awesome line. And Charlie Crockett, how did that go that long? I love what he's been on this guest this show before I forgot about that. So nice job to bourbona beyond well done, well done, just Bourbon only those ninety songs. Rest the way, Who's up?

00:27:34
Speaker 3: Who's up next?

00:27:35
Speaker 2: Let's go to Bobby, Bobby, go ahead, Bobby.

00:27:38
Speaker 7: Hey, guys, Ryan kind of stole my thunder with the a cup thing. But the thing about the fifty minutes is he was efficient through all of it. Like that's the thing Pope needs to look at. I mean, it's kind of what we said about oh way, Like even it's ninety percent, I mean, he's still gonna be good. And then the other thing I have is, has there ever been a time in Kentucky history where there's potential that we could get the number one quarterback in the nation but have trouble getting the number one high school basketball.

00:28:05
Speaker 4: That's a great question. I mean, you know, will Stein. I'm hoping to have will Stein on next week for a long form interview. I've requested it and hopefully that will come in. Will Stein's been We're involved with a lot of top guys in recruiting. We'll see if we end up getting them. But it is interesting that like we seem to almost be in with more great quarterbacks than the top basketball players.

00:28:27
Speaker 5: We're like two weeks away from spring football starting, so yeah, it's a good time to get him on to talk about it. But it's gonna be his initial spring practice.

00:28:33
Speaker 6: Yeah, and the one top qbs that they mentioned and shout out the OC too, So I mean, these guys will see what happens on the field, but they're bringing the reputation with them and have a lot of attention from recruits.

00:28:43
Speaker 3: Who's next, Let's go to Justin Justin?

00:28:45
Speaker 8: Go ahead, Justin, Hey, first time caller.

00:28:49
Speaker 3: Who are.

00:28:51
Speaker 8: Two quick things?

00:28:52
Speaker 7: One?

00:28:53
Speaker 8: So UNC lost to NC State by twenty four Yeah, and everyone all we keep talking about is, oh, were their top two players were out. But for us, nobody ever talks like that. It seems like we're always expected to win.

00:29:09
Speaker 4: I mean, look, let me just let's yes, we have a lot of players out. I don't think our top two players are out. I don't think Jay and Lowe and Jaydon Clayton's were our top two players. I think they were both very important players. Jay and Lowe I think was very important. Cam Williams was important. At the same time, I do think it's if we're gonna be honest, when we had the whole team, we weren't exactly killing it.

00:29:36
Speaker 3: Okay, we lost four games in the non conference.

00:29:39
Speaker 4: Now, jalonn low didn't play all those games, Jayden Quainton's didn't play all them. Cam Williams did, but it wasn't like we were I mean, I think, what if you want to be an optimist, you go, Okay, the only time everyone played was the second half of Saint John's and man, we were good.

00:29:53
Speaker 3: In that one.

00:29:54
Speaker 4: Okay, I mean that's fair. But then you know, I think everybody played. Again it's Alabama and we got destroyed. And then I think JAYL Lowe got hurt in that Missouri game.

00:30:06
Speaker 3: Am I right about that.

00:30:07
Speaker 4: I think he did, and we lost that one too, So you know, I I I think it's important, but I also don't think.

00:30:18
Speaker 3: It's like the only problem has been the fact that we lost those people.

00:30:22
Speaker 5: I've heard people would make the argument, also, we're better with out Low, we're better with Aberdeen.

00:30:28
Speaker 4: Point that could and I appreciate the call that could end up being true. I also think Low really, I mean, how many games he played five? He really didn't get much.

00:30:38
Speaker 3: Of a chance. Yeah, so I don't it may be the case.

00:30:41
Speaker 4: He wouldn't have worked, but we didn't get much of a saying. I mean, remember what Aberdeen looked like in his first five games rough, you know, so sometimes you got to be able to play out.

00:30:49
Speaker 6: He didn't really get a chance to do that. But yeah, it's no secret injuries or a problem. I don't put a Quaintance in that conversation though. I mean, you went and paid a guy. You can't be like, oh no, he's injured. You you knew that before you even called him. I totally agree with that.

00:31:02
Speaker 4: If you want to say, what we lost really is our starting point guard and our sixth man, that's what we lost.

00:31:09
Speaker 6: Quaintance was always gravy right, Yeah, and my man, I'd love to see him. But I don't feel like Kentucky got a bad break because he's not playing. That was always going to be a gamble. We were just optimistic and hope it would work.

00:31:20
Speaker 4: Lo and Cam were bad. Low especially is a bad break because he's your starting point guard. Cam I think was the sixth man, although I think he by the time he got hurt, he was playing a lot better than he was. Stop over paying for sunglasses. If you're tired of expensive sunglasses only to lose or break them, or worse, never even wear them, you need Shady Rays, independent American owned company start right here in Kentucky, premium polarized shades for every activity running, fishing, biking, golfing. It's Shady Rays and the best lost and broken replacements. So take on your next challenge with Shady Rays.

00:31:51
Speaker 3: They have your back. At Shady Rays, We'll take a break and be right back. It's kas are saying or working back.

00:32:03
Speaker 4: Take you Sports Radio. This is this song is one that I'll hear once every two years and then like, still love it. It's great, Still love it.

00:32:12
Speaker 3: So Sunday is sold out?

00:32:14
Speaker 5: Wow, where did you see that.

00:32:17
Speaker 3: At somebody said on the text machine, that's not true.

00:32:22
Speaker 2: It's not true that pretty quick, go to Bourbon beyond dot com you can.

00:32:25
Speaker 3: Okay, so you go to.

00:32:26
Speaker 4: Burd don't listen to the guy on the text machine. Go to Bourbon and beyond dot com. It's not sold out at people on his computer ready to go. You don't want you want to make sure he gets.

00:32:37
Speaker 2: I'll have free tickets all next week on the rock shows.

00:32:39
Speaker 3: Okay, good for you. You better get us tickets. Can we win? I don't listen to the rock show. I mean i'm I'm I support it.

00:32:46
Speaker 2: Bye bye bye not listening. I appreciate you exactly.

00:32:48
Speaker 3: I support it by not listening.

00:32:50
Speaker 4: One person rights, Matt, what do you think about your bears looking like they're gonna move to Indiana and ridiculous?

00:32:56
Speaker 3: I can't do that.

00:32:57
Speaker 4: I mean it looks like they may, though I don't know. Maybe they're just posh. Are even trying to get Chicago or in Illinois to do a last minuting? They're talking about moving to Hammond, Indiana. Ham In Indiana is the grossest place on earth. I mean, it's grosser than Gary. Like people always talk about Gary, but Gary. It's still not nice, but Gary is not what it was. Like everybody kind of moved out, so it's not like suppressing, but it's not as scary.

00:33:23
Speaker 3: But Hammond is disgusting.

00:33:25
Speaker 4: Hammond is where you know, if you ever driven to Chicago, you know, when you drive and it's like just smog and like plants and steel.

00:33:33
Speaker 3: And girt death. You know what I'm talking about.

00:33:38
Speaker 6: You should work for marketing there.

00:33:41
Speaker 5: No.

00:33:41
Speaker 4: I mean, there's like billboards like here's the casino where life is the saddest on earth.

00:33:46
Speaker 3: That's ham in Indiana. You can't put a stadium there.

00:33:50
Speaker 6: And it's the Bears, something about it being the Bears and they already have the you know, all the history. They're right in the middle of Chicago. It feels gross moving the mout And then what if people want to go, like what are they gonna do? Stay in those smoke stacks, like go to the casino? Oh gosh, those I can't even imagine.

00:34:09
Speaker 4: They're like I just remember on that drive when you're driving up there, and if you've driven from Chicago, you know, you go from Gary to Chicago is.

00:34:18
Speaker 3: Probably the most disgusting stretch of road in the United States.

00:34:24
Speaker 4: That I've driven feels like you literally are getting black lung on the drive. And there are there are ads for casinos and strip clubs, and I'm always like, those gotta be the saddest places.

00:34:36
Speaker 3: And they can't have the Bears play there.

00:34:38
Speaker 5: Ryan, I mean, I'm from Indiana, but Gary and Hammond that's the armpit of Indiana. Why would the Bears try to move out of downtown chicagoetting a deal.

00:34:46
Speaker 3: They don't have to pay taxes for like fifteen years and if.

00:34:49
Speaker 5: They're the Bears, man, it's Chicago. But Chicago's all about the Bears. You gotta stay where they are.

00:34:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, shitn And it would be Awfu'd be like Green Bay moving.

00:34:56
Speaker 2: To like Oshkosh or something wouldn't be the same. I don't know Oscosh maybe not, just it's still in Wisconsin.

00:35:03
Speaker 4: Yeah, I hope they don't do that. It's I mean, for me, it'd be closer if you wanted to go, it's it's closer to us.

00:35:11
Speaker 2: And they're treating them like they're an expansion team. And this is the Chicago Bears, the Chicago Bears.

00:35:17
Speaker 3: So how many teams don't play in the city that it says they play well?

00:35:23
Speaker 2: The Jets and the Giants.

00:35:24
Speaker 6: So the Jets and the Giants are in New Jersey and the city is on their way out.

00:35:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, but they're still being Kansas City. They'll just be in That's right. There's moving states, so they be in Kansas City, Kansas.

00:35:33
Speaker 4: San Francisco plays in Santa Clara, which is a completely different city, same state, different city. Who else does Dallas? That's right, Kansas plays in Arlington. You're exactly right. Phoenix plays in Glendale, although I guess it's the Arizona Cardinals now, so I guess they don't.

00:35:52
Speaker 3: Anybody else plays in a different in a different city when baseball.

00:35:56
Speaker 2: The Braves don't really play in Atlanta anymore.

00:35:58
Speaker 3: Playing like coffee anyhow, right, Yep, good call.

00:36:03
Speaker 6: I think you have to call you your team wherever you're located.

00:36:06
Speaker 3: So you think they should have to be the Hammon Bears.

00:36:08
Speaker 6: You are now you will be a Hammon. No, you can be the Indiana Bears if you want to. Well, you can't be Chicago and be in a different state.

00:36:15
Speaker 4: I will tell you if they became the Indiana Bears, I'm an expansion franchise.

00:36:20
Speaker 3: It wouldn't win.

00:36:21
Speaker 6: But I saw Iowa put together a big package to recruit them too. You could be the Iowa Bears.

00:36:25
Speaker 3: Oh my, I was not close to Chicago.

00:36:28
Speaker 6: Is it's it's not close enough to have the Bears, but they one of those like Davenport. They put together a big thing to try to recruit them, basically giving them whatever they wanted. Yeah, Dubuke, you could be a debut Bears fan.

00:36:41
Speaker 3: I don't like it. I mean, it needs to be in Chicago.

00:36:45
Speaker 4: You think it's just it is just a big Chicago is like a Chicago's also a vibe, like it's a state, like New York the Giant Giants.

00:36:53
Speaker 3: Not being in New York stinks too, you know, but that's the way it goes. Who's up next, Joe, Joe, go ahead, Joe.

00:37:01
Speaker 7: Hey, Matt.

00:37:02
Speaker 9: Bears being in indiana's crazy, But if they moved to where they were incorporated out of, they'd be the Delaware Bears.

00:37:10
Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:37:11
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's where all the team. Pretty much all businesses are in Delaware, which is also a fact of America.

00:37:17
Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:37:19
Speaker 9: So the nineties music, the one I heard You and I are the same age that I know Mario's never heard heard it for the first time in twenty years a couple of days ago. Drew will know this one. When's the last time you heard bop Gun with George Clinton and Ice Cube?

00:37:34
Speaker 3: All the time? It's my, it's my you hear that?

00:37:37
Speaker 2: I have?

00:37:38
Speaker 9: I heard that the other day.

00:37:39
Speaker 3: I have a.

00:37:40
Speaker 4: Workout playlist that includes a lot of songs, and one of them is It's now time for the bop Gun.

00:37:47
Speaker 9: Yes, it's a question. Ask anything you've mentioned that delight sandwich from McDonald's. Have you ever had the Jimmy Dean egg white microwave sandwich?

00:37:58
Speaker 3: I don't, No, I'm not. I'm not cooking. You're not cooking.

00:38:03
Speaker 4: Look the reason I go to McDonald's is right here in my hand. It's just for the diet coke, the food whatever. I'm trying to get the point that I don't even eat the food in the morning, just so that I can try to. I'm trying to be a little healthier. But this die coke. They will pry this out of my hands.

00:38:22
Speaker 2: What what happened to your cooking?

00:38:23
Speaker 3: By the way, I'm trying, it's not it's not it's not been going. We're gonna We're gonna have to restarted at some point.

00:38:32
Speaker 5: Speaking of McDonald's. I know who one of the people were you honked at this morning?

00:38:36
Speaker 3: Oh oh they didn't know who I was, did they? Yes?

00:38:41
Speaker 6: Give him anxiety. He's gonna have the scaries.

00:38:44
