Speaker 3: Wow. You think you can do that for two hours? That's a big ask?

00:01:17
Speaker 4: Yeah?

00:01:19
Speaker 6: Why not?

00:01:20
Speaker 4: Well?

00:01:20
Speaker 5: The a Vision Auto glass text machine is seven seven two five two five four in this distion sponsored by the TJ. Smith Office. You called TJ. He'll make them pay. Drew is here, Uh, Drew, good to see you. We I spent all day yesterday dealing with furniture, which is not something I've ever done before. And when did uh when did somebody tell me that?

00:01:46
Speaker 6: You know, this stuff is expensive.

00:01:48
Speaker 4: Very expensive, especially when because I kind of we're in your boat getting a new house and not having much to move into it, and you're having to furnish a whole house whenever you had in the budget. It's more it's gonna be able to have asked me.

00:01:58
Speaker 6: They're like, well, don't you have stuff?

00:02:00
Speaker 5: But Shannon and I have the same things I've had since I was like twenty two.

00:02:04
Speaker 4: You know how people upgrade as they get older. I never did that.

00:02:07
Speaker 3: So you're sleeping on like the same college couch that you had.

00:02:10
Speaker 4: I still have a twin bed in one end le twin bed. I'm not kidding cars on it. Well, until just recently, I had a UK blanket. Sounds like now the Lexington place was a little lot.

00:02:28
Speaker 5: But so the point is I have to furniture from scratch, and I knew I couldn't do that, so I hired a designer and she's wonderful. But I realized, Shannon, like, I don't want to do the minutia here, right, So I said, so my mom has been like, I would like to help you. I don't even do this summer. And I thought, well this is perfect right her. My mom, you guys do not you not me? And I said, the best thing you can do for me, Mom is like just let me at the end go yes or no. But that's it. And she said yes and I was like, no, seriously, Shannon, I don't want to you. I'll just say yes or no. So we had the yes or no moment. And the thing is that the woman picked out great stuff. She and my mom they've done a wonderful job. But then They'll say things to you, Shannon, like okay, now here are the end table choices, and they show four, and my mom will have a strong opinion about one. She was like, now I hate this one. I was like, all right, well, then don't get that one. She goes, but you need to pick what you want.

00:03:37
Speaker 3: I don't care.

00:03:38
Speaker 4: I really don't, but I don't care. Do you have strong opinions about end tables?

00:03:42
Speaker 2: If you gave me multiple choices, I would yes, if you get it, I don't.

00:03:46
Speaker 3: I would say I want it, just.

00:03:47
Speaker 4: Like don't get the one.

00:03:49
Speaker 5: When my mom or someone comes in, they go ooh, right, just get it. But I want to have his little thing. But here's what I didn't realize. I said this to you off the air yesterday when when rugs.

00:04:02
Speaker 3: Oh man, oh yeah, I got a rug?

00:04:04
Speaker 5: How are rugs so expensive? We should have been in the rug business, Shannon.

00:04:08
Speaker 4: I should have started Kentucky Rug, Kentuck Kentucky Sports Rug.

00:04:13
Speaker 3: There you go.

00:04:14
Speaker 4: It's got to keep the same initials exactly. If you had asked me, what do you think a rug costs? I'm not gonna tell you what I paid for this rug, but I would have assumed significantly less. What what why are rugs so expensive?

00:04:34
Speaker 7: I don't know.

00:04:35
Speaker 4: Big rug is taking advantage of it. So I just had to buy one recently too. But presumably Shannon, that's on the ground exactly. That's the thing.

00:04:44
Speaker 5: Have you ever noticed a rug when you go in someone's house? Have you ever noticed a rug?

00:04:48
Speaker 2: Rug's important ties the room together. You gotta have the right kind of rug.

00:04:51
Speaker 4: So when you go to visit your friends, are you like you're doing a great job with this rug?

00:04:58
Speaker 3: Rug looks good? Like the color scheme great and awful?

00:05:02
Speaker 4: Or like, hey man, I need to talk to you do that. Rugs just kind of clashing with your end table.

00:05:07
Speaker 5: See, this is why I needed the designer in my mom because I don't want Shannon coming over and ragging on my rug.

00:05:13
Speaker 4: Why don't Shannon and I go to your house and we'll judge the rug, shoot you straight on your rug.

00:05:18
Speaker 5: I just had no idea what the rug cost, you know, so I have to do like six rooms, so i've we did like four, and the price was about what I thought it would be. But when I looked at the broke breakdown of what costs what I would have never imagined that the most expensive thing in there was the rug. I never would have imagined that ever.

00:05:40
Speaker 2: Yeah, even like a little small area rug can cost easily four hundred bucks.

00:05:44
Speaker 4: So who decided this? Why are they so expensive?

00:05:48
Speaker 1: Like?

00:05:48
Speaker 4: What is what? What is it about big rug that is making because presumably you could you would think you could.

00:05:54
Speaker 6: Put anything down, Yeah, but no you cannot. I don't know.

00:05:58
Speaker 4: Also, when you get it, you gotta remember you can be spelling things on it. You're can a vacuum it. No, you're gonna give it clean? Yeah, I mean, this is one of your most valuable possessions.

00:06:07
Speaker 5: Is next to my car in the house, the most the most expensive thing I'm gonna own is this rug.

00:06:13
Speaker 4: I guess I'm just I'm just gonna wallow in it.

00:06:16
Speaker 3: You don't have to get the most expensive rug, I know.

00:06:19
Speaker 4: But like I don't want to start. I mean, you don't own cheap on a new house, especially a nice house.

00:06:26
Speaker 5: You know how, Like back in the day, they had that famous moment when George Bush would like went through George Bush, the older one. He went to the grocery store and he was like showing he was a common man by buying groceries. And then he was surprised that they had a scanner.

00:06:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, what is this thing?

00:06:42
Speaker 5: And he was like, well, something else and it was kind of like showing he was out of touch. So I kind of have an idea of what every day items cost. But because I've not bought nice things my entire life. Really, because I got the cheapest couches at the beginning and all that, I just had no idea what things cost. So is I gave them a budget chanting and I was like, as long as it's in this, then you distributed how you want.

00:07:09
Speaker 4: I just didn't know how much was going to big road.

00:07:11
Speaker 2: That's a big difference between furniture like a nice place versus like Craigslist, as you get two different parts.

00:07:17
Speaker 4: Because I was used to Craigslist. I was used to just trading couches with people on the street. Oh, it's garage sale weekend in South Lexington coming up.

00:07:24
Speaker 8: You could go.

00:07:25
Speaker 4: She had a lot of neighborhoods did all on the same day. You could go down. There's an official garage sale in some neighborhoods they coordinate. So what neighborhood is this, I don't know. My friends were telling me about last night. Mine was last weekend. So it's a little too late for you to come visit my son intown. Come and maybe I don't participate. I did it once and I was done. I'm out on that. But you could go find some some rugs, maybe some used couches. What is the what's the road where they do a yard sale from one end of the state to the other. I think that might be this weekend. It's coming or something like that.

00:07:54
Speaker 5: And then they go from like Lexington to you know, down the mountains.

00:08:00
Speaker 4: Right, you got to send your mom and your designer and hit all that up. I see, I know, Bet, I don't want to do any of those things. I just have to tell you. It's it's been a good welcoming Shannon to how the the more I become an adult, Yes, in my mid.

00:08:14
Speaker 3: Forties, being an adult is expensive.

00:08:16
Speaker 4: You realize, like I don't, I don't know the worlds. The world's too expensive.

00:08:23
Speaker 2: Facebook Marketplace. I've got all guys of great rugs for you seventy five.

00:08:28
Speaker 5: Oh, they have said, well, that's a little more, a little less than I think there's. It's got to have stains on, it's smell great.

00:08:38
Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's good. Now it's that's right.

00:08:40
Speaker 5: Wait till you see how it ties everything together. When you get in there, you're gonna be You're gonna be really impressed with how it all is. Do you have all your kitchen stuff in there?

00:08:48
Speaker 4: I know you're that's the one they've had one time.

00:08:53
Speaker 5: I think for my like fortieth birthday, my mom bought me all the kitchen stuff you need, okay, and so uh.

00:09:01
Speaker 6: That I have.

00:09:02
Speaker 3: Do you know what to do with it?

00:09:04
Speaker 6: Yeah?

00:09:05
Speaker 4: I mean, I mean I don't use it because now I'm gonna have like a nice what's that thing that's over your stove air? Yeah, but this people say mine's really not They're like, oh, that's really nice.

00:09:21
Speaker 5: But I don't know what it is. I don't know why it's nice. But when you're cooking on your stove, that helps the ventilation. Get it out of there when you're making stuff, when you're making a nice uh steak for us on the cast iron skillet, that'll help. Well, I'm going to have you all over at the end of the summer when it's fully put together.

00:09:38
Speaker 4: Cooking. No, I'll probably have to have someone help.

00:09:42
Speaker 3: The personal chef will be there.

00:09:45
Speaker 4: I'm not stepping on the rug I'm walking around it. Okay, but but yeah, I was gonna say, do not spill anything on that rug lit on my drink and I'm walking around the rug and Rane's not even allowed in the same room as the rug.

00:09:54
Speaker 2: No.

00:09:55
Speaker 3: Wow, it doesn't even get that privilege.

00:09:57
Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, So yesterday Pope did that.

00:10:02
Speaker 5: That was his last one video. I get yeah, I think, because he seemed to be like, this was fun.

00:10:07
Speaker 4: Yeah, see you later. It seemed like he was signing off. He was like, Pope out yeah.

00:10:11
Speaker 9: Uh.

00:10:12
Speaker 4: In the video answered some questions.

00:10:14
Speaker 5: He answered the question of who I'm on the staff talks to the agents, and he said the assistant coaches. So it's clear like Pope is bucking the this is how everybody else does its system. And he's very clear, like, no, it's our coach is doing it. We don't have like a fixer. I disagree with that, but it's he's the coach, so like he needs he needs to do it the way he wants. But now we at least know how that works.

00:10:44
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like you. I disagree a little bit. I wish they had a new uh, someone in there with new ideas and to help take all that on because everything's changed. But I'm also can't just sit here and cry about it every day because he's made it clear that's how they're going to move forward.

00:10:56
Speaker 6: I wouldn't wonder if, being honest, that that's what they're doing.

00:10:59
Speaker 4: One thing that concern to me about that method he's going with is we still are we still down an assistant coach right now? Of them?

00:11:06
Speaker 6: It is interesting that we were down in a coach, do you? I mean, they gotta be waiting on somebody.

00:11:10
Speaker 4: Right Like, why wouldn't you have already hired? Well, the thought might be he's waiting on Jamal Crawford.

00:11:15
Speaker 5: Jamal's still announcing, though, isn't he? Or is that over is the NBA? I guess he still haven't. Might have a little bit left out. I don't know what networks take over in the next round. But even then, that was kind of a Stokes higher.

00:11:25
Speaker 4: I don't know, maybe it would be him, but it is a little weird that that spot's been opened for so long in such a critical offseason.

00:11:30
Speaker 5: Yeah, but so he doesn't do that. Then they said Shannon uh, he said he gets final choice on players.

00:11:37
Speaker 3: That's good.

00:11:39
Speaker 4: And then finally he said that there was a visit during portal season where the guy only stayed three hours.

00:11:47
Speaker 3: It's like a bad first date.

00:11:49
Speaker 5: Yeah, he insinuated that he got there and they were like, we just don't like each other, by which I I got to know what happened during those like three hours, Like when I went to med in North Carolina that time, and it was what was.

00:12:02
Speaker 3: It had to be the guy just going like, now, how much money am I going to get? How much money? Coach? Like to where the point like okay, just just go, you know?

00:12:10
Speaker 4: I think so he was. Was he insinuating that it was them that said go away? Yeah? Yeah, that's awkward, Like you at least fake it for a couple more hours, right, or do you just came out like like was he supposed to stay the night?

00:12:22
Speaker 5: And they were like did he go to his hotel room and the key didn't work and you just go home?

00:12:27
Speaker 4: Your luggage is in the lobby, see you?

00:12:28
Speaker 3: They set the beat up keya a little too soon, like you No.

00:12:32
Speaker 5: That makes me wonder like if they set the beat up Kia for tired stokes? Did they take him on a bike golf cart? Three hours is a short visit. It's just a short visit. By the time you get your luggage, yeah right, I think you're getting downtown.

00:12:48
Speaker 4: You know, they got a park by the time they do all that. It feels like it's a pretty short visit, Like they just got their appetizers. And it's like I figured out who that was? Who was only here for three hours? How long was Rob right here? It seemed quick, But he's a here overnight he was supposed to be. But we never some of these guys might get here and leave on their own. I mean, it was a pretty quick visit, but I would think someone of his caliber, even if it didn't feel right in the first three hours, we want to give it a little more time. It had to have just been somebody terrible that we probably don't even know much about. On them being here, that's quick. I think it's weird.

00:13:23
Speaker 5: Shanting to me how you get so comfortable with a person in three hours that you're already like, all right, that's enough.

00:13:28
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, if you know it's not going to work, why drag it out?

00:13:31
Speaker 9: Like?

00:13:31
Speaker 3: Why am I wasting my day? If I know this isn't going to work and I don't want to be with this guy?

00:13:36
Speaker 5: Yeah, now I want to do the suggestion that one person put in the comment section of the body cam.

00:13:43
Speaker 3: I'd like to know what happened, what was said, how what happened during.

00:13:46
Speaker 4: Those three hours, or maybe he didn't screw it up. Well that's what we say.

00:13:50
Speaker 6: We don't really know who was not feeling the other one.

00:13:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he was.

00:13:56
Speaker 4: I like that.

00:13:56
Speaker 5: He just says things like that. He's like, yeah, three kicked him out, kick get out of here. So anyway, that's uh. That was the news from his last video, and then Malachi Malachi has been rising in the projections again.

00:14:17
Speaker 6: I was told this morning, not.

00:14:18
Speaker 5: From the Toyota Workers Group, but from someone who wanted to counter the Toyota Workers Group that he was gonna be back. But I don't know what to believe. Do you think there's any chance he stays in the draft. I'd say there's a slim chance. I have not thought he would be leaving at all. Maybe maybe as.

00:14:39
Speaker 4: This goes on and it gets a little more buzz, I'll flip. But I just think when you're a late first round maybe early second round, you could go get maybe even more than that back in college and you know, try it up your stock. It just any not just Malakai, anyone that's that fringe first second round. I would really consider trying to go and get more college money. That would seem like the path for about anybody. It would for me too.

00:14:58
Speaker 5: And we need him to absolutely, I mean like we need him back. It's hard to imagine this team being really good without him.

00:15:07
Speaker 4: The counter on being is the date twenty seventh, okay, so we still have two weeks of a couple of weeks okay. But the counter that would be like, because the Knicks are the team, I mean, the Knicks could be in the finals here in a couple of weeks. It's New York. You could think, well, next year I could end up in Charlotte or something. Maybe if you have a dream city or a dream destination you want to be a part of something bigger, maybe you go after that. But I would still think going back to college and getting a big check would be the way to go.

00:15:30
Speaker 5: Well, the text machine is seventh seven two seven seven four five two five four. If what if you works for big rug, let me know where all this value got went into. We will take a break. Well, keep the phones closed this segment, then can do it after that.

00:15:45
Speaker 4: This is cancer. Welcome back Tukey Sports Radio.

00:15:51
Speaker 5: So that yard sale is first week of August and it goes six hundred and ninety miles through four states.

00:15:57
Speaker 3: What six or ninety miles?

00:15:59
Speaker 5: Six hundred ninety miles four states over four days? Wow, August six This year it's August sixth through ninth.

00:16:06
Speaker 3: How do you know where the good deal is?

00:16:08
Speaker 4: So, you know, I was about to say I would love to do a show.

00:16:12
Speaker 5: At you know, but I don't know how we would do that because we can't Just picking somebody's yard wouldn't be But if we could somehow move and do it and go through the yard sale and look for like junk who.

00:16:22
Speaker 4: Still have the gator?

00:16:24
Speaker 7: You like?

00:16:24
Speaker 4: Like yard sales? You hate them?

00:16:26
Speaker 6: Yeah? I kind of do too, But.

00:16:27
Speaker 5: You can find sometimes fine crazy things like I like. I like when you look through and you'll be like, oh, here's a you know, baseball card from nineteen seventy six.

00:16:40
Speaker 4: We participated in one, and I didn't like how people were just standing outside at six in the morning waiting for me to open my garage, just like, all right, this is a little much, y'all.

00:16:48
Speaker 5: Calm down, Uh, people are telling me Shannon the thing above the stove is called a.

00:16:52
Speaker 4: Hood, yeah, is that right? Yeah?

00:16:55
Speaker 6: And it sucks the air out right.

00:16:57
Speaker 3: You don't want smoke in your house, so.

00:16:58
Speaker 6: It this thing's this thing apparently is really good.

00:17:01
Speaker 3: Suck, sucks and gets it out of the house.

00:17:04
Speaker 5: Were you just like me, got just a really good sucker right out of there? And that that's helpful?

00:17:10
Speaker 4: Got to I said, if you're cooking something with a lot of smoke, like a good steak on the stove, it fill up your whole house. If you don't have a good hood getting it out of there.

00:17:16
Speaker 5: Yeah, one person rights, Matt. Let me go back again. Did you say you still have a UK blanket?

00:17:25
Speaker 3: You cuddle with it when they lose? Does it comfort me?

00:17:32
Speaker 5: I mean on one bed, I might, but it's warm another owning the UK blanket, I've probably got one somewhere.

00:17:41
Speaker 4: No, it's not on my my bed that I'm under it every night. But I bet there's a UK blanket.

00:17:45
Speaker 6: You wouldn't You wouldn't.

00:17:47
Speaker 4: Actually, I know I have one. I have a UK and a Titans one.

00:17:49
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean that's what.

00:17:51
Speaker 4: My UK One's vintage. It's like forty years old. It's pretty pretty.

00:17:54
Speaker 6: Some things have on their bed.

00:17:57
Speaker 3: I guess I'm messing out. Then that's just great.

00:18:00
Speaker 4: We're sleeping. I'm just gonna have neutral colors, no big logo on it.

00:18:07
Speaker 6: Uh.

00:18:09
Speaker 4: Will Stein this morning was on The Michael Bennett Show. Really.

00:18:14
Speaker 5: First of all, I didn't know there was the new Michael Bennett Show.

00:18:20
Speaker 4: I thought it ended.

00:18:21
Speaker 3: No, it's been on for years.

00:18:24
Speaker 4: I know, But didn't it have a gap. I had a gap for at least a day.

00:18:28
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, a little bit.

00:18:30
Speaker 5: He took time off. Okay, so it's back. All right, Well someone heard it because I got said this. Will Stein was on. Good get for just.

00:18:41
Speaker 4: The Bennett and especially You're never gonna get over though. Well that was to be fair, that was a wild day.

00:18:55
Speaker 5: But anyway, will Stein was on and he said that he is does not want to end the u of L series and said it should be moved at the beginning of the year. First of all, the comment does not want to end the U of L series is interesting because that's been against like the policy, like Mitch Barnhardt hasn't said that in years, used to say it but then stopped, and Mark Stoops specifically would all but say he wanted to end it. And now will Stein is like, nope, we're playing. I like that because if I think U of L will want to play it too, but for some reason they didn't, it wouldn't be our fault that it would end. I kind of was under the assumption that when this contract ended, that series was going to end, which is like twenty thirty. And I'm glad to hear if will Stein does well and pushes it, it will keep going. Yeah, you're not going to go against your football coach if he wants to play.

00:19:47
Speaker 4: And I think it's even more surprising him being the U OFL alum, because you think he would not want that.

00:19:54
Speaker 5: He wants his house, he wants all the smoke inside, you know, haven't played there.

00:20:01
Speaker 4: Like I could just avoid this tension between my old school and a lot of people I still like over there. But he's like, no, I want to play him. I want to beat him, and I want to do it week one.

00:20:09
Speaker 5: I like that though, good, And now the Week one part I've come around to. I prefer it at the end of the year. I mean I could be talked into Week one. I didn't like when the basketball game. I thought it was too early in the year. I like, I actually think the basketball game should be in February, although that's probably never gonna happen. But if we're gonna have it in the non conference, I like it being like the last non conference game. But whatever, football, I mean, i'd prefer it to be at the end.

00:20:38
Speaker 6: You prefer it first game or in.

00:20:40
Speaker 4: I liked it. I didn't like him when it was like third. No, so I like it either first or like I thought, i'd like it at the end. I still lean that way. But we've had some years lately where one side is pretty much quit.

00:20:50
Speaker 2: On the year.

00:20:50
Speaker 5: It had been a couple of years where we had a bad year and that game kind of turned it around for us.

00:20:55
Speaker 4: Yeah, I just having seen some years where it's been a blowout luck luckily a lot of times it's in Kentucky on it where the other slovels just rolled over and played dead, even though Kentucky did that last year. So if you were in charge first or last, I might go back to first, just for the juice and the excitement of having first or last.

00:21:10
Speaker 2: I like it at the end because you have the chance of really messing up one team's season's the biggest.

00:21:15
Speaker 5: Messed up their season lamar year and then not last season, but whatever the last one was, we beat them. Was it the year before? We kind of we kind of ruined their season beating them. So I like that.

00:21:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, regardless, just keep the game on the schedule, even if you do have to play it like in the middle of the season.

00:21:33
Speaker 5: I like it, and I think it's also kind of symbolic of how the Barnhart era.

00:21:40
Speaker 4: Is over.

00:21:42
Speaker 5: There was a time in this in this administration where with the exception of John Calperry, who would just say what he thought, no one associated with UK Athletics would go against whatever the Barnhart philosophy was, including Mark Stoops, really wouldn't min gi ome like, none of them would. I think when I saw will Stein's comment, he's only been in here a few months to come out and be like, I'm giving my own opinion, and by the way, it's different than the one that's kind of been pervasive recently, just shows me it's a different era now. And I don't know what the new area is, I don't know who's gonna be sitting there, but the sort of the Barnhart way I think is likely done. Will Stein does not say that in my opinion if Mitch Barnhart's gonna be the ID next year, that's just my view. I could be wrong. I didn't hear the context, but I would be surprised.

00:22:41
Speaker 4: If he did. Yeah, and you know, he's Will's kind of been sticking his chest out since he's been here, and I like it. I love that he's doing this about the Louisville game too. Yeah, he if I'm nine two eight, twenty two eighty seven. All right, Shannon, go ahead and open it.

00:22:52
Speaker 6: Uh.

00:22:53
Speaker 3: Polite, polite, Polite Matt, Okay, polite, Matt. I see how long this lasts.

00:22:59
Speaker 4: At least ninety minutes. I'll be right back. TJ. Smith, personal injury attorney called TJ. He'll make them pay.

00:23:10
Speaker 2: Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio present it by Stockton Mortgage.

00:23:13
Speaker 3: Here's Matt Jones.

00:23:15
Speaker 6: You know, Shannon, maybe people don't want me to be polite?

00:23:17
Speaker 4: What is that?

00:23:18
Speaker 7: Well?

00:23:18
Speaker 6: I mean the phone lines didn't fill up, We've got some.

00:23:20
Speaker 5: Maybe maybe people want because like I thought, I thought Bob and Jamestown would use this as a chance to call because.

00:23:26
Speaker 3: He doesn't believe you.

00:23:29
Speaker 5: Promised. If I promise, a lot of people are angry at you. Two for saying that we can't have UK blankets, well specifically Shannon. Uh, Shannon needs to shut up. I have ten UK blankets and I'm a stylish, fifty four year old woman. You can have to have them because I'm a UK fan. Shannon wouldn't understand because he's not a fan.

00:23:50
Speaker 2: Oh you can't. You just said yesterday. You can't tell people who they're not a fan. You just said that yesterday. You could have a blanket. I'm just saying if you have it as like your bed spread on your bed, that's a little embarrassing. If you have a blanket that you just have like on the couch, Okay, that's fine, but not on your bed.

00:24:06
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, you're right. Yeah I felt that. Yeah, and I've gotten judgments. You know what, it's the warmest thing. It's the warmest thing I have. What verson rights?

00:24:21
Speaker 5: Matt, you're, as always misinformed about the Louisville game situation. When the SEC passed the nine game conference rule, it included that one of the other three games has to be a conference team. That game is staying no matter what it did say that. But remember, the SEC is considering doing a series with the Big Ten where we play a Big ten team, and if we do that, then that would be the non conference game. So the question and the lot some people think that is happening starting in twenty twenty eight. So if it does, it looks like will Stein is saying, I still want to play the Louisville game, even though that might make eleven Power Conference games.

00:24:58
Speaker 4: I love it. Love the confidence he was brought in here. You know, he could have given the easy answer, like you said, just told the UK line and you know, give Michael Bennett a little bit of a quote there, but he says, bring it on.

00:25:09
Speaker 6: Yeah, I like it. Bring it on.

00:25:12
Speaker 4: If you're scared, go to church. That's what he says. And I like it.

00:25:17
Speaker 5: By the way, for all of you, everybody, take a moment tonight, say a little prayer or think in your hearts about Mario because Lebron may have played his last game, and more importantly for Mario, that means Bronni may have played his last game last night, and he seems very depressed at the end of the Lebron potential, end of the Lebron era.

00:25:44
Speaker 4: Yeah, I came in. I gave him a hug as soon as I saw him, checked on him. You know, it doesn't help that Lebron had that little floater to tie the game and whiff there at the end could be his last shot. His last shot could be a miss with Dylan Brooks behind the basket laughing at you see.

00:25:55
Speaker 5: Now, that's a level of troll. Can you imagine trolling somebody so much, Shannan that you come to their final game and talk trash to him on the way out of their career.

00:26:06
Speaker 3: That's not his last game, though, that is amazing.

00:26:10
Speaker 4: That would be like me going to Seth Greenberg's goodbye broadcast on ESPN and just yelling at him the cameraman, sitting by the cameraman and going take a cue card. This is an unbelievable amount. By the way, he's not gonna retire. No, he's gonna come back and he's gonna do a farewell.

00:26:28
Speaker 3: Absolutely, there's no way.

00:26:30
Speaker 4: I like.

00:26:31
Speaker 5: I'm a Lebron fan, I don't dislike Lebron, but there's no way somebody with the ego of Lebron is just he's just walking announcements. He's got Yes, he's gonna have a whole thing where they like give him a rocking chair and every stop along the way, he's gonna get rugs. He's getting all of it so that he I don't care what they say. He will play at least one.

00:26:53
Speaker 4: Morning, and I don't see him going out with a sweep like that. Yes, he might not be back with the Lakers, go to Cleveland, but he'll be back.

00:27:01
Speaker 5: He should go to Cleveland, have his final hurrah, you know, get the get the Cleveland.

00:27:07
Speaker 6: What's what's food? What's the food of Cleveland? I don't know.

00:27:11
Speaker 4: That's so much whatever it is, have a sludge burger.

00:27:17
Speaker 5: And then I'm kidding. I don't mind Cleveland, all right, polite Matt Ryan, Go ahead, Ryan, welcome to you What's Radio?

00:27:29
Speaker 9: Yeah, Hi, guys, I hope you're doing well today. I came in laid on the segment, so not exactly sure what we're talking about, but I'm just gonna throw out my own thoughts. I listening to you guys daily. It's the best part of my day. You seem to be spot on in what your assessments are. I've been to a few remotes. He might have recognized me there. But okay, regardless of what the topic is, I am at least excited for the first time about our upcoming year.

00:28:04
Speaker 8: We've built some pieces in that.

00:28:06
Speaker 4: What snat are we talking about? Ryan basket?

00:28:09
Speaker 9: Basketball?

00:28:11
Speaker 6: Football?

00:28:12
Speaker 9: We're already killing it. We're already killing it at football. I'm so like, so like thrilled with how will Stein's doing things. I wish the basketball side would take take a note from it. Take you know what I mean?

00:28:26
Speaker 4: Well, first of all the points, Ryan and I appreciate the call. It was nice to.

00:28:30
Speaker 5: Have you on the show, and you're being polite, and well I am being polite eighty seven.

00:28:38
Speaker 4: I agree.

00:28:39
Speaker 6: I'm excited about the football program.

00:28:41
Speaker 5: I have some questions about our basketball roster, but it's not over yet, so uh so we'll we'll have to wait and see. But I am very excited about football. You know, did you see one of the one of the websites. I think it was like Crane and Bob or it's some show with like t Bob and Joe or something. One of those shows was ranked the best play callers in college football in all of college football, and they had will Stein number two.

00:29:07
Speaker 4: Oh no, I didn't see that two in the whole country, said we have.

00:29:11
Speaker 5: It was Steve Sarkejian at Texas was number one, and Will Stein was number two.

00:29:16
Speaker 4: Just going back to scoring points like Stoops did great here. He took us to levels we had never seen before. But it was a run the ball and play defense, which can get a little boring even when you're winning. I love the idea of will Stein. He says about every interview, we're gonna score points, and that that I mean the Mummy era. Hopefully we get a little more wins than that, but just scoring a ton of points, even if if you're not winning the game, can add a little layer of fun. I'm looking forward to that and hopefully the wins come with it. I'm sorry it was it's j Boy and Crane Shamon.

00:29:45
Speaker 3: J Boy, Okay, like that makes a difference.

00:29:48
Speaker 6: But you know, I mean if people who didn't know it's Jay Boy.

00:29:51
Speaker 2: You know, going back to like the Joker Phillips day is when we were terrible, you would always say, well, at least, you know, if you're gonna be bad, be entertaining.

00:29:58
Speaker 3: I think that's gonna be this season. Even if they have a losing season, I think they're at least going to be entertaining to watch.

00:30:02
Speaker 4: I think, well, i think they're definitely gonna be entertained yeah, I mean we got the second best play car in the country.

00:30:07
Speaker 3: Go ahead, b According to Crane, yeah, the last was wrong.

00:30:12
Speaker 6: Who else are you gonna believe but J Boy and Crane?

00:30:15
Speaker 3: Anybody but.

00:30:17
Speaker 6: Go ahead, brint.

00:30:20
Speaker 10: Hey, Matt, I thought I thought i'd take the opportunity to talk to to pick a bone with polite Matt from a week or so ago.

00:30:28
Speaker 4: I welcome.

00:30:29
Speaker 6: I welcome those that disagree.

00:30:31
Speaker 8: Always it's not a disagreement.

00:30:36
Speaker 10: About a week or so ago, my daughter and I left to Dennis. We were headed to I was headed to take her to school, and you had you guys had the four SmackDown tickets and uh, she's a huge wrestling fan, and uh, you know, all the way from Georgetown to Maxwell, we was waiting on the contest to call in. And then we pull up to the school and all of a sudden, a random nurse calls in. It wasn't taking care of anybody, and and you just gave her the tickets.

00:31:03
Speaker 5: And my daughter had said that she wasn't taking care of anybody in that moment.

00:31:08
Speaker 4: Did you want her to call in for the ticket?

00:31:10
Speaker 6: She was okay, It wasn't me.

00:31:13
Speaker 10: It was the seven year old who said this she wasn't working.

00:31:16
Speaker 4: Dad, Well that's interesting.

00:31:20
Speaker 3: If she open heart surgery would be okay, that.

00:31:23
Speaker 4: Would be much more impressive. Yeah, if the SmackDown happened yet, the SmackDown happened yet it's already happened.

00:31:33
Speaker 6: Okay, I'm sorry.

00:31:34
Speaker 5: I was if we hadn't, I was going to see if I could give you, in your seven year old a ticket, because.

00:31:39
Speaker 9: It's part.

00:31:42
Speaker 10: Uh a matter of fact that maybe this weekend anyway, I.

00:31:47
Speaker 4: Just I want to get I you know, normal Matt would never give away tickets at all. I know, polite man.

00:31:58
Speaker 10: That's why.

00:32:01
Speaker 4: So here's if the event.

00:32:02
Speaker 5: Hasn't happened, and if we have tickets, I'll be glad to give them to you. So I'm gonna put you on hold. I'm gonna have Mario go check with our ticket uh person out there, Morgan, and let's and I'll let you know if we have something.

00:32:16
Speaker 10: Okay, I appreciate it, right tight, Well nobody.

00:32:21
Speaker 4: Well, we'll know by the next sect.

00:32:23
Speaker 3: There you go, it hasn't happened.

00:32:24
Speaker 5: There's there difference between Matt Plight. Matt encourages people to call for as for tickets twenty seconds. So we have so so it's still to come. If we have tickets, then I will give him tickets. I don't know if we haven't many.

00:32:41
Speaker 4: I needed Mario to leave too, because I've spilt coffee right here and he was filming me and this is not a good look. You do have a coffee nip books looks like I'm lastating no cameras.

00:32:49
Speaker 5: Some things change reasons. Why are the reasons people avoid thinking about the roof, Well, honest, they're probably too busy or maybe they think it costs a lot. But if something breaks on your roof, you're gonna feel the stress. You could ruin that rug that you bought. That's why I like CRC Roofing and Renovations. They make the process simple. They'll come in roofing, gutters, siding, windows, it's all there and they will come and see where your roof stands. Free inspection. Call CRC Roofing. That's CRC company dot com and mention KSR CRC company dot com, slash KSR or just call eight five nine three two, seven thirty nine thirteen mentioned KSR through the end of May and you can save one thousand dollars CRC Roofing.

00:33:34
Speaker 6: The roofers of KSR.

00:33:37
Speaker 4: I'll take a break, be right back.

00:33:38
Speaker 6: It's gona tuck your portraiting.

00:33:44
Speaker 4: Welcome back. Where'd you find this song?

00:33:46
Speaker 3: This is Harry Styles Treat people with kindness.

00:33:49
Speaker 6: People love Harry Styles. Yeah, the women women love them.

00:33:54
Speaker 5: We've had a lot of good coll Like yesterday was kind of a slow text machine. Today today you've been right back to where where it was normally. I want like everybody gone out of town or something. But now, one person writes, Matt, I know you're trying, but the tone of your voice sounds like a force nice and you're not being genuine.

00:34:09
Speaker 3: Oh, now you've gotta be genuine and nice.

00:34:11
Speaker 6: That's a genuine and that's a lot. That is a lot.

00:34:14
Speaker 5: Yeah, one person writes, Matt, I spent more on my rug than anything in the house. Shannon is actually correct. It does tie the room together and you can have it for your whole life.

00:34:25
Speaker 4: That's good.

00:34:26
Speaker 3: Why as you don't let people come over and ruin it, spill stuff all over it.

00:34:29
Speaker 4: Who's gonna be the first one to spill it's kid muddy shoes on it? And then at question, the woman that's designing my house asked me this.

00:34:41
Speaker 5: She said, are you gonna let people come in here with shoes? She wanted to know in terms of what to put in there. And I hate when people tell you to take off their shoes. I really do.

00:34:55
Speaker 6: So I think I'm gonna let people wear their shoes. But is that a mistake?

00:34:58
Speaker 4: Do you?

00:34:58
Speaker 6: First of all, do you let people wear your shoes?

00:35:00
Speaker 4: My entire first floor is hardwood, so yeah, whatever, I don't care.

00:35:04
Speaker 5: Yeah, mine's gonna be hardwood too, absent the rug. Do you let people wear shoes in your house?

00:35:08
Speaker 3: I do, yeah, but when you know everybody else's shoes in the house are off, it's kind of like, you know, here's your hint. I'm not going to tell you to take your shoes off.

00:35:16
Speaker 4: Oh so you actually want people to take their shoes?

00:35:18
Speaker 2: I mean I would rather than bring in mud. Yeah, it's more things for me to have to clean up.

00:35:22
Speaker 4: So is it?

00:35:23
Speaker 5: Do you think it's impolite to ask people to take your shoes off?

00:35:26
Speaker 6: Like we walk in the door, will you please take your shoes?

00:35:28
Speaker 3: You got mud all over your shoes. I'm gonna say take your shoes off, okay, but that's specific.

00:35:33
Speaker 4: If you're just walking.

00:35:34
Speaker 3: In, I won't say anything.

00:35:36
Speaker 4: Is it rude if someone says that the house and they tell you whatever they want.

00:35:41
Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:35:42
Speaker 5: One person writes, do women not have a bad reaction if they see a UK blanket?

00:35:49
Speaker 3: Yes, you've had some experiences. It sounds late.

00:35:53
Speaker 4: So I have a rule.

00:35:55
Speaker 5: You've all been to both of my houses. I have to be in love. I think I've said this before on here. I have to be in love with a woman for her to get to see my little house, because you have to love me.

00:36:06
Speaker 3: To like, yeah, there's a lot going on, you know what I mean. There's a lot going on, and there's a lot of stuff like like.

00:36:14
Speaker 4: No, it's probably not gonna be in a designer magazine anytime there are there.

00:36:17
Speaker 5: Are rankings to houses. The number one thing is if you meet my parents, right, But number two would be you see the Louisville House, Lexington House, the Louisville House.

00:36:34
Speaker 6: It's a whole other thing.

00:36:36
Speaker 4: It's been a while since it's gotten a good polish at the Liver place, and Mario's got that recliner in the middle of the kitchen. I think you still have that edible flower arrangement from like ten years ago in the freeze away through the edible flower.

00:36:48
Speaker 5: I do have about seventy five seltzers from corn bread him.

00:36:52
Speaker 4: They delivered me like four a week. Well given to me, ye that way I can.

00:36:57
Speaker 6: I've given away seventy five and they keep sending them.

00:37:00
Speaker 4: I'm running over to total wat every week.

00:37:03
Speaker 5: Come to the Litle House. You can have some lucky in Campbellsville. Polite Matt is.

00:37:07
Speaker 7: Ready, all right, thanks to take my call. Guys. I appreciate the direction of the show this morning. I think it's brought me some clarity. Been wondering why Stokes picked Kansas because Bill self has a great rug.

00:37:25
Speaker 5: Well do you know somebody actually wrote and said, Who's rug costs more?

00:37:29
Speaker 4: Yours or Bill selves? It's great, It's a really good question. I bet they were clothes. But I'm not hating on Bill selves. I think it's when you have the best of anything, you deserve. When you have the best hair piece in America, you deserve credit. You and I have sat next to him like I think my thigh was touching his thigh and we were like staring at it. I mean, you can see it, but you gotta be like, if you weren't looking for it, you wouldn't be able to tell and you know, maybe there are other people that have that, and I just don't know.

00:38:03
Speaker 3: But that when you say you can see it, what are you seeing? What do you?

00:38:06
Speaker 7: Well?

00:38:06
Speaker 5: You can see little different, little line difference, and it looks like is.

00:38:12
Speaker 3: It possible that he doesn't have a rug? And maybe he has.

00:38:15
Speaker 5: One because go look at the pictures of him when he played in college.

00:38:18
Speaker 3: Maybe you get a transplant.

00:38:20
Speaker 5: Well maybe, but I actually don't think so because this has been so long, like transplants were not common back then. I mean Drew and I saw it in like twenty ten.

00:38:28
Speaker 4: Yeah, I almost poked it just to come.

00:38:30
Speaker 5: It's it's just it's mesmeriz.

00:38:33
Speaker 3: What do you okay for people who wear those? What do you do? Like at night, when you're about to lay down to bed, you take it on your purse.

00:38:40
Speaker 4: I think they like your head.

00:38:43
Speaker 5: So there's not like a hook next to his bed, hangs it up, he takes it off and then puts it on before he gets in the shower.

00:38:50
Speaker 7: It up.

00:38:51
Speaker 6: I think it's pretty permittent on you.

00:38:54
Speaker 4: It's in there. I will say. It seemed to have like a clip. Remember we saw where we thought there was some kind of clip, so I don't.

00:39:00
Speaker 5: Know that sounds terrible, is the best one. These are compliments we're not making fun of. Really, these are compliments. Josh, go ahead, Josh.

00:39:13
Speaker 8: Hey, guys. Hey, First off, Drew, congratulations on fatherhood.

00:39:18
Speaker 4: Uh, thank you.

00:39:18
Speaker 8: It's gonna be great man. Second of all, Uh, this is the first time, honestly, guys, this is the first time I've listened to the show since the Michigan State game. I am one done with Pope, Like I'm done. I sat here, I let Barnhardt reeled.

00:39:36
Speaker 9: Me back in.

00:39:38
Speaker 8: Uh, this is Billy g recruiting, Like this is Billy G's teams, Like we have no star, we have no score, and if we strike on strike out on Milan, then what And I.

00:39:54
Speaker 5: Think it'll be one of these things though, where they'll it'll take care of itself. And what I mean by that is if I kind of disagree with you a little bit, but if you're correct, then they're not going to have a great year and he'll be replaced at.

00:40:08
Speaker 6: The end of the year.

00:40:09
Speaker 4: Anyway.

00:40:10
Speaker 8: Well, absolutely, And I've become a football fan. I've been a Kentucky basketball fan my whole life. But will Stein is killing it.

00:40:20
Speaker 4: Y'all have a good day.

00:40:21
Speaker 5: So waitmit, does that mean we're back? Like you're back listening? Well, I lost him. Yeah, he said he hadn't listened to Michigan State Show, so I was hoping that means he's back as a listener. I mean, he's excited about will Stein, doesn't seem as excited about Mark Pope. But I will say this, when this roster is complete, I think we should evaluate it, honestly, but there's a part of me that says kind of like I said in the last year of stoops and like we should all get behind it because whatever happens is gonna determine the few. Like there's no scenario where I think Pope has a bad year and then they were to bring him back.

00:40:58
Speaker 6: Do you agree with that? I agree, So we might as.

00:41:00
Speaker 5: Well all hope it's good, because you know, why not at this point the dies cast. So I mean, I have said the deficiencies in the roster, but once it starts, man, I'm gonna be pulling for all those guys to be better than we think. So seth, go ahead, Seth.

00:41:22
Speaker 11: Hey, two quick things. One, when are we going to make a Ryan do that restaurant challenge? I've been waiting on it.

00:41:29
Speaker 5: Well, he had some stuff come up that has made it to where we couldn't. It will happen because I want to go and watch him and sit in the corner where he dies. So so so we have to.

00:41:40
