00:01:21
Speaker 5: The dude that.

00:01:22
Speaker 4: Went eighteen and two thirds innings. By the ways, Nick trapv eighteen and two thirds. Here's what's impressive in relief. Oh can you can you imagine looking at your reliever and going, okay, get son, go get your metch go out there and give me a good eighteen and two thirds today.

00:01:40
Speaker 6: Heard of long relievers. But that's ridiculous.

00:01:42
Speaker 4: By the way, the other guy lichens for Lafayette drough. He just went a cool fourteen, and he probably thought, you know, if I go fourteen, I'm gonna get a lot of praise for it.

00:01:53
Speaker 5: And then the other guy goes eighteen and.

00:01:55
Speaker 4: Two thirds, Then you're fourteen doesn't look like anything in the end.

00:01:59
Speaker 7: Yeah, he can't really say much to my guy, Travis, I think you said, I don't know, Travis, I don't understand how I went to uh Madisonville for four years, never saw a statue of that man. I should have been driving past his statue every morning on my way to school.

00:02:11
Speaker 2: Vic Vic Travis ended up being a big league umpire. He's from here, he's he probably pitched for Lafayette.

00:02:16
Speaker 5: Oh you think that's who it is? Do you have any basis for that?

00:02:19
Speaker 4: Or you're just saying that that's I mean, there's could be a lot of Travis's.

00:02:22
Speaker 5: You think you think it's this one.

00:02:24
Speaker 2: Now, it's gotta be this guy, Victor.

00:02:25
Speaker 7: The Travis was the loser, then then I the winner. I should have been uh seeing, So.

00:02:30
Speaker 5: I like this shit.

00:02:32
Speaker 4: He is just convinced that the only person whose last name is Travis Vic could have played his first.

00:02:39
Speaker 5: Name was Vic.

00:02:40
Speaker 2: Yeah, Vic, Travis the picture and he's also became a big league umpire.

00:02:46
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, so you know, yeah, okay, that's what the color said. Oh he did?

00:02:52
Speaker 4: Okay, right, fair enough? Twenty two eighty seven. Let's go over a couple of things. Uh, First of all, did you say shan in any of the videos from Bartstown Road this weekend?

00:03:04
Speaker 5: No?

00:03:04
Speaker 6: What was there were fights?

00:03:06
Speaker 5: Oh? No, I didn't don't even know.

00:03:08
Speaker 4: I don't even know that you can use the word fights Melee on.

00:03:13
Speaker 6: Uh, I didn't go out there.

00:03:16
Speaker 5: Yeah, so that area. I think it started next to the Taco.

00:03:19
Speaker 6: Bell YEP, I know what you're talking about.

00:03:22
Speaker 5: On Bartstown Road, but just go look it up.

00:03:27
Speaker 6: I mean it matter with the price of tagos or what's that.

00:03:30
Speaker 5: I don't know what it is. It seemed to me like it was it was I don't know.

00:03:35
Speaker 4: It seems like back in the old day, Shannon, when they would do the twenty four to seven belt in the WWE Hardcore Belt and and people would just there was just a melee of people.

00:03:46
Speaker 5: Usually Al Snow was involved in those.

00:03:48
Speaker 6: That's right, Yeah, you might have been, Uh.

00:03:51
Speaker 5: It's crazy and it just goes on and on.

00:03:55
Speaker 4: If you look at the videos, the two things you notice is the fights don't stop, and they just seem to add people exponentially. And then they're everyone has their phone out filming. Wow, Like they're like everybody's everybody wants to be the one to make the videos. So what happens is there's this group of people fighting and then there are like dozens of other people that surrounded filming the videos, and they end up shanning fighting to get spots to film the videos.

00:04:30
Speaker 5: You think I'm kidding about this.

00:04:31
Speaker 3: Go look at it's crazy.

00:04:34
Speaker 4: It starts at the Taco bell and it looks to be going down the street towards the bars down there, like towards Wicks and and O'Shea's, Baxter's all that that stuff, and it just seems it's almost like the Lord of the Rings.

00:04:52
Speaker 5: Trilogy of fights.

00:04:54
Speaker 4: It just keeps going and going, and I.

00:04:59
Speaker 5: I was never told what it was over.

00:05:00
Speaker 4: I'm sure it was something very important, but it is, and you know, you look at it and you go the police end up showing up.

00:05:11
Speaker 5: The police have none of you seen these videos?

00:05:16
Speaker 7: There were all clips on social media.

00:05:18
Speaker 6: Okay, so it was it on like Twitter or.

00:05:21
Speaker 5: I don't know.

00:05:21
Speaker 4: It's like, I don't know, there's they just show up on some Instagram accounts like there's a there's a Louisville News or something.

00:05:30
Speaker 5: I just just look around.

00:05:32
Speaker 4: I feel like they're on Facebook and Instagram and TikTok. You'll you'll find it. I don't have a particular account. Drew, you saw them like that?

00:05:40
Speaker 7: No, it's chaos everywhere. Was that in protest to the Mid City Mall? Is that what they were doing?

00:05:45
Speaker 5: No? I think it's just I guess just a Saturday night out.

00:05:49
Speaker 6: Okay, I got it now on Facebook?

00:05:52
Speaker 5: Okay, but do you see what I'm talking about? Loo?

00:05:54
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's there's like, by the way, that's the official news Louisville. You don't need to your DRV or wave or w h A s. You go to Louisville News Facebook.

00:06:06
Speaker 5: Look at that.

00:06:08
Speaker 4: Can you imagine you're just walking down the street. You're just like, I gotta get a taco at Taco Bell and you run into that. I mean, what are you doing?

00:06:17
Speaker 5: What are you doing?

00:06:19
Speaker 6: Running the other way?

00:06:20
Speaker 2: That's what I'm going to say. Man, these people stick around and record it. I'm getting the heck out of there, man, I'm getting.

00:06:25
Speaker 5: Are you Channon? Are you?

00:06:27
Speaker 2: Are you getting out of there?

00:06:28
Speaker 5: You recording it?

00:06:29
Speaker 3: I'm probably leaving. I used to go down there every weekend, you know, in my younger days, I was in it. I was was you know, Phoenix Oll Tavern, all those bars down there.

00:06:37
Speaker 6: I was down there every weekend.

00:06:38
Speaker 4: It makes me sad that area has completely those bars. I mean, you're right Chin, and that used to be where you went out little I would say years from like two thousand to two thousand and eight nine something like that, right, I mean that was where you went?

00:06:56
Speaker 5: Was that part of ten?

00:06:57
Speaker 3: I'm not walking with you to O'shes anymore, not not after seeing that.

00:07:01
Speaker 5: No, it's not, it's not that. It's not it's not like that all the time.

00:07:04
Speaker 6: I don't know.

00:07:05
Speaker 5: I feel like they would have to, they'd have the streets barricaded off if it was like that.

00:07:10
Speaker 3: Time one of you and I were going to our you know, our annual walk down to O'sha's, and that happens now.

00:07:16
Speaker 4: Maybe wish. I bet Here's why. I bet you. I bet you it's safe for next weekend that it was last.

00:07:20
Speaker 6: Week, probably gonna be a heavy police presence.

00:07:23
Speaker 5: I'm just telling you. If you want to be like whoa that was in Louisville, go, first of all, go to go to Louisville News Ye and look at videos from Saturday night. Are you seeing him, Ryan, He's Drew showing them to you.

00:07:37
Speaker 2: I haven't seen him yet during the break.

00:07:39
Speaker 5: Probably just absolutely wild stuff.

00:07:43
Speaker 4: Also, uh, I don't know, did any of you watch Sports Science on ESPN? Of course that the guy who did it, what was his name, John Brincus Brincus, He passed away this weekend. Sports Science was the thing where they would show what would you say to They'd show like the numbers of how a high jumper, how far he jumped, or how fast somebody went to Ken Griffy, you know, caught a ball to the outfield.

00:08:13
Speaker 5: Always, as a.

00:08:14
Speaker 4: Kid thought I just found it interesting because they would take some guy and they would say, you realize he runs x meters per second or whatever, and you go, wow, that seems like amazing stuff. You know, they don't do that stuff anymore, but I actually enjoyed it back in the day.

00:08:30
Speaker 7: Yeah, that was groundbreaking stuff. Even if they were lying to us. It was very cool to see, like the exact velosophy, velosity, if the ball was it You think they were making it up. Well, he's faster than a gazelle right here at this point in this clip. I didn't know the science behind it, but it was a nice It was a new angle to sports that we'd never seen before.

00:08:47
Speaker 5: I like the idea. You think they just made it up, he could throw it farther.

00:08:51
Speaker 6: They showed you the science though science.

00:08:54
Speaker 4: Presumably it was science, right kind of. I bet those weren't your favorite segments. I don't feel like the science part would have made you interested.

00:09:02
Speaker 2: No, it kind of made me my head hurt a little bit trying to figure out what the heck they were talking about. But I remember I did see one on Nolan Ryan one time. They said, like the ball coming out of his hand was like one hundred and nine miles an hour out of his hand, and then by the time it crossed home plate it was one hundred and four or something like that.

00:09:16
Speaker 5: Did you believe it.

00:09:16
Speaker 2: I'd believe every second exactly, but.

00:09:19
Speaker 4: That's not a huge difference one hundred and nine to one hundred and four. Did that blow your mind or something?

00:09:25
Speaker 2: That it was one hundred and nine coming out of his hand, that would be that, by far the fastest pitch ever recorded.

00:09:31
Speaker 4: Okay, well, I'm glad you put that clearly stuck with you the years later. Okay, well, good well, so h rest in peace to John Brincus. And then last you know, I don't this may surprise you, Shen, and I don't know a lot about war and.

00:09:51
Speaker 6: The military, Okay.

00:09:53
Speaker 5: No, I mean I don't. Well, some people really will study like military tactics and all this stuff. I don't know anything about it, but I did think this was interesting.

00:10:03
Speaker 4: Did you see Shannon that Ukraine like made this big attack on Russia.

00:10:07
Speaker 5: Yea, yesterday.

00:10:08
Speaker 6: Did you see that?

00:10:09
Speaker 4: And did you see how they did it? Because I think it's a it's fascinating. They over the course of a year and a half made this like mobile drone shooters, right, and they they found a way to get semi trucks into the country. So they just over the course of a year and a half got semi trucks into Russia. And they and they did it like they would go okay, and they would just leave the semi trucks on.

00:10:38
Speaker 5: The side of the road for a period of time.

00:10:40
Speaker 4: And in those semi trucks, which looked to the naked eye just as trucks where you would drive, you know, goods too, they had a mobile drone launcher and they placed these trucks all over Russia, so in like twenty five different spots, I don't know how many spots, but spots all over Russia, ranging from the part next to Ukraine all the way to the ends of Siberia. And then at the same moment they launched these drones attacks from these trucks and the moment they all went out at the same time, and they took out one third of Russia's air force in their country by doing these trucks. And then they had it to where if anybody tried to get next to the truck to see what they did, the truck exploded.

00:11:30
Speaker 5: There's people are saying that it is one of the most brilliant military attacks in like decades.

00:11:35
Speaker 4: But it does sound kind of amazing, isn't it that you just have all these semi trucks and then you launched them all from inside.

00:11:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that nobody went up to see like what those trucks were. At any point they would put a year.

00:11:47
Speaker 4: They would put well, I don't know if they left them the whole year, but they would put them on abandoned roads that people like never went down. And because Russia didn't think it could happen from inside their country, they weren't ready for it, and all of a sudden, so it not don't they didn't shoot them from somewhere else. They actually shot them from places inside Russia.

00:12:06
Speaker 3: But they're playing the long game, right. Imagine you know it took it a year and a half.

00:12:12
Speaker 4: A year and a half, right, I mean that's a long time. A year and a half to get it done.

00:12:18
Speaker 2: Just listen to tell the story. It sounds like Hollywood, sound like a movie that somebody made. That they could pull that off like that. It's amazing.

00:12:24
Speaker 4: And I'm sure there's military people out there that clearly know more about it.

00:12:27
Speaker 5: Maybe you're more or less impressed with it.

00:12:29
Speaker 4: I keep seeing all these people from around the world saying this is one of the most brilliant strikes of all time, blah blah blah. But just the idea that you would, for a year and a half plan to take these trucks there, and then they made it to where if anybody was to ever come close to them, the truck explodes so that they could never catch it.

00:12:47
Speaker 6: And then it worked all that and it doesn't work, yeah, or something that doesn't launch man and it and.

00:12:53
Speaker 5: They took out a third of their of their aircraft missile our aircraft long range missiles shooter in like five minutes. So kind of amazing. Who's up next, Junior, Go ahead, Junior.

00:13:07
Speaker 8: Hey guys, I got the best sports trivia question in the history of sports trivia, and it's about Major League Baseball. Who has the career record for most home runs hit on Mother's Day? It's a two part question.

00:13:22
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go ahead and tell you I don't think this is the best question in the history of trivia no matter what your answer, unless your answer is like mother Resa, I don't think it's gonna be the best ever. But we'll play along. Who has the most home runs in the history of Mother's Day? I don't know.

00:13:39
Speaker 5: I'll say Albert Poohols. Who is it?

00:13:44
Speaker 8: Yes, but you're wrong, it's Kim Griffy Jr.

00:13:47
Speaker 5: I was actually gonn literally, I was going to say Kim Griffy Junr. Okay, go ahead.

00:13:53
Speaker 8: Who has the most career home runs in Major League Baseball history hit on Bob's Day?

00:14:01
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I think the only way this is interesting is if it's also Kid gri.

00:14:07
Speaker 8: It is interesting, and it is also Ken Griffy. It just speaks to his natural talent. Hey Mom, I'm going to hit a home run for you today. Hey Dad, I'm on deep for here today on Copas Day. I just always.

00:14:18
Speaker 4: Okay, Well, that, no, that is interesting. I'll agree with you. That's interesting. So I appreciate the call you Ryan. You think people can do it in honor of their families like that.

00:14:30
Speaker 2: I mean, you've seen people like promise a home run to a kid, a sick kid, or somebody they made. So sometimes they follow through and it does happen, King Griffy.

00:14:37
Speaker 5: They never do the story though when it doesn't happen, Drew Right, You always hear those stories about how they meet the kid and then they say I'm gonna hit a home run.

00:14:46
Speaker 4: They do, but then you never hear the story. I'm sure it has to happen where they didn't hit a home run. That one, it doesn't feel like comes up as much.

00:14:53
Speaker 7: No where am I videos of crying kids that were promised a home run and they didn't deliver in these big moments. All the kid wanted was a home run for their birthday and you let them down.

00:15:02
Speaker 3: Is the more interesting stat guy promised home run to a dying child and struck out five times in the game.

00:15:10
Speaker 5: Yeah, they do.

00:15:11
Speaker 4: They don't get what's the guy who makes you cry? Tom Rinaldi doesn't do esus about the time the guy went over four with a lazy ground out to short after.

00:15:23
Speaker 5: Those toy get tears his ac l in the process.

00:15:29
Speaker 4: When you look in the mirror in the morning, if you see spots on your skin that worry you the areas your skin won't heal or bleeds unexpectedly, then you might need to go see a dermatologist.

00:16:11
Speaker 5: This song always, the song always makes me like they.

00:16:14
Speaker 4: Would play this. Wasn't there a show Ryan that would show like baseball highlights or something?

00:16:21
Speaker 3: And oh, yeah, this baseball this week in baseball.

00:16:25
Speaker 4: That's right, Yeah, I remember the kid watching that A lot right would come on like what Saturday morning and then they would what would they show? Because I do remember this show, but I don't remember what was on it.

00:16:40
Speaker 2: They would show the past week's highlights. Sometime that you have a cool little feature on something on a team or a guy. What was the name of the host, Meil Allen, Meil Allen.

00:16:51
Speaker 4: Okay, I do remember this song from from doing that. The account one of the accounts that has these videos, uh Shannon w.

00:16:59
Speaker 5: T F Louisville.

00:17:01
Speaker 6: I guess what w T means.

00:17:06
Speaker 4: One person writes, Matt, I was at that Taco Bell the night all those fights happened. It was wild and people kept running in from all over to video it. And you're right, more of the fights started with people trying to video it and then getting in fights. I didn't think it would ever endow that's close to because everybody, but you can kind of see it is close to my neck.

00:17:32
Speaker 5: But you can see the inclination too.

00:17:34
Speaker 4: You see this fight and you want to video it so that people will watch your video, I guess. But also like, I don't even remember who it is that posts these videos, so I don't know if that really helps you.

00:17:50
Speaker 5: But either way, just be careful when you go to Taco Bell.

00:17:54
Speaker 4: Chip says, here's an interesting another interesting story from the Lafayette Madisonville game. Tom Rogers from Madisonville played football at UK. He was in charge of video in the game for Madisonville, and he recorded the entire game, but he forgot to remove the lens cap.

00:18:13
Speaker 5: No, so he missed the historical game. No, that can't be true. Come on, now, that can't be true.

00:18:19
Speaker 2: Recording do they have lens caps back in nineteen seventy.

00:18:25
Speaker 7: Tom Rodgers is a Madisonville legend. I can't believe he would do that.

00:18:30
Speaker 4: You think, Okay, do we call truth or do you throw the challenge flag or not? On that story that he forgot that Tom Rogers forgot the lens cap on the camera.

00:18:39
Speaker 2: I'm throwing the challenge flag. I think Tom Rogers slept and missed the whole game and that was a story he came up with.

00:18:46
Speaker 5: Or maybe he like put it.

00:18:48
Speaker 4: I don't know, Shane, what do you think like put it without someone manning it and then laughed and didn't rise he left the lens cap, And.

00:18:55
Speaker 3: I guess that's possible that like when you look through the lens you see that it's all black because there's a cabin, which.

00:19:02
Speaker 4: Means he would have had to have not been there to do that, right, you have had to set it and forget it and then go somewhere else.

00:19:09
Speaker 3: But you would think you would have it all focused before you just left it.

00:19:12
Speaker 5: You know you would.

00:19:13
Speaker 3: You would focus any any novice cameraman would at least have it focused in.

00:19:18
Speaker 5: So you're saying you think Chips lie.

00:19:19
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't think there's any truth not true.

00:19:23
Speaker 5: I'm gonna believe Chip.

00:19:24
Speaker 7: I don't know how you would just make that up, Tom, I think he did. I just think he had a.

00:19:30
Speaker 5: Pad one bad moment, had a fart. How do you make it up? Ask Chip, you just did it? Believe.

00:19:38
Speaker 4: With the end of the Knicks Pacers series, NBA on T and T has now ended drew after I think they've been doing it for thirty one years.

00:19:48
Speaker 5: The NBA has been on T.

00:19:49
Speaker 4: And T in some form, and then the NBA Show with Barklay and those guys has been on since I think the late nineties. They are now going to move to ESPN, but it will still be produced by T and T, but they will no longer be on T and T. I think the question for me, we talked about it, but now it's over. I saw in their final show, Shaq said to ESPN, ESPN don't blank with us.

00:20:16
Speaker 5: Do you think ESPN will ruin it?

00:20:19
Speaker 4: Will they try to put steven A or someone on it and ruin what I think is objectively the best sports television show that has ever existed.

00:20:30
Speaker 7: I think they absolutely will. I saw Sack Shack's comments with the full F bomb on TV on his last show. They don't see that a lot. Yeah, no, but he even said he's like the last time doing this whatever. But yeah, I am worried that we'll have Kendrick Perkins sitting between Charles Barkley. I think they'll work in their ESPN people and ruin what has been a great thing for decades.

00:20:54
Speaker 5: I mean, you've been in television a lot in your life. Ryan.

00:20:58
Speaker 4: One thing I've learned about television is that everybody thinks that they can make whatever it is better.

00:21:05
Speaker 5: Right.

00:21:06
Speaker 4: So when I did Hay Kentucky, when I signed the agreement, part of my signing was you will let me do whatever I want. And they said yes. And when my boss he kept saying yes. And then the boss changed and he tried to do stuff to change it, and I fought it off, but it was hard. Do you think ESPN will be like, this is a great show, but you know what would make it better? Throw in a little steven A like they'll screw it up.

00:21:33
Speaker 5: If they do that. They will.

00:21:35
Speaker 2: You can guarantee they're gonna do that. They want to put Stephen A or Kendrick Perkins or some of their own guys on.

00:21:40
Speaker 4: Kender Perkins is awful by the way, they cannot and I know he's my Don't tell anybody I said that shit because I taken cannot put Kendrick even one of them, but definitely Kender Perkins will go ahead.

00:21:50
Speaker 5: Right.

00:21:50
Speaker 2: I feel like, no matter how hard they try, though, it will never be the same that just those four guys on TNT.

00:21:57
Speaker 4: What if they keep just the four guys, You don't think they can be the same somewhere else.

00:22:01
Speaker 2: They're the same producers. They have to keep the same everything.

00:22:05
Speaker 4: They are just they're keeping the same every They're even doing it in Atlanta.

00:22:08
Speaker 5: They're still doing it where they are.

00:22:10
Speaker 2: You know, if you do that, I don't you know the way Ernie reacted like you know, he teared up and even Shack returned up a little bit. I think they know it's never going to be the same, and no matter how much they try to say it, ESPN will get their fingers in it and it will not be the same. Anymore.

00:22:26
Speaker 5: They just can't ship. They're going to want to put Steven.

00:22:32
Speaker 3: They established personalities they want to inject in there.

00:22:35
Speaker 5: They can't, though, Like what makes that great?

00:22:38
Speaker 4: That those dudes like each other and it's natural and if you start throwing somebody else in, there's just no.

00:22:47
Speaker 5: Way to work. They got to just stay away from it.

00:22:51
Speaker 2: And they can be they can be pretty critical. And I don't know if he has ben'na let them be critical like they are sometimes, like you know, Charles Barkle will say this so and So's stinks or whatever. You know, I don't know if espn'll let them do all that.

00:23:02
Speaker 5: Well, they better cause that's that is the best show in sports on television. You cannot screw it up. Who's next?

00:23:09

Speaker 4: One person writes Matt, I'm driving back from a girl's weekend in South Carolina. Drew Laney from Mount Sterling is driving. She's the queen of the zipper Merge. I've seen more people doing it recently. Is that the KSR effect?

00:24:14
Speaker 5: Uh?

00:24:14
Speaker 4: No, but I still am a big advocate. Shannon did a really good one on Saturday.

00:24:21
Speaker 5: I was proud.

00:24:21
Speaker 4: Did Jo got right up there waiting for the truck. The semi cut right in. No, you have to use the semi because it takes the.

00:24:32
Speaker 3: Semi truckers right now driving around listening to you, so.

00:24:37
Speaker 4: The trucker knows it takes it a minute to get going. And because it takes it a minute to get going. That's when you zipper merge and you go and remember I've been people send me, keep sending me studies, Drew. It is quicker for the general collective to zipper merge. So I'm I'm an advocate in most situations. Even though I feel bad when I do it, it's still, I think, the right.

00:25:02
Speaker 5: Thing to do.

00:25:03
Speaker 7: I still think you might be confusing just cutting someone off the traffic with a zipper merch. I think these are two different techniques. Yes, I think the zipper merge is more of a collective effort. You're all one on the road, but a lot of teamwork involved, sometimes just going to the front and you know, pulling in there.

00:25:19
Speaker 5: That's what is the difference between cutting someone off and a zipper merge.

00:25:23
Speaker 7: Everyone's a willing participant in the zipper merge.

00:25:26
Speaker 4: Well, I can't collectively Ryan talk to everyone and say let's all do this. I can only control my behavior.

00:25:33
Speaker 2: When the you go down to the interstate and the left lane is closed and the line of traffic's all on the right, the guy that drives all the way up to the very end of the left lane, and then that's that's that's not a zipper merge. That's not a zipper merge.

00:25:47
Speaker 5: It should be. No.

00:25:48
Speaker 2: It kipper merges when you've got two lanes of cars you have you're taking turns going one at a time.

00:25:54
Speaker 5: No, No, there's a process.

00:25:57
Speaker 4: Yeah, but no, the only reason there's not a process is because the other people are not participating. What you just the situation you just describe, Brian, is where you're supposed to do a zipper merge. Where you're talking about a lane gets closed. Okay, what are you laughing at? I'm being serious. Okay, so there's a lane closed, and then you start, you know, Shannon, you start seeing signs lane closed in three.

00:26:24
Speaker 5: Thousand feet, two thousand feet, et cetera. A zipper merge is that you all should use that period of time and then merge at the point that the lane is closed.

00:26:36
Speaker 9: It is not everyone sign No, that's not that's what people know. No, No, that's where people that's what we we've been we've been told to do over time, and that is actually less effective. The zipper merge is starting farther back what you're supposed to do.

00:26:54
Speaker 5: It's less effective for humanity.

00:26:57
Speaker 2: We had to put this up for a vote between the four of them.

00:27:00
Speaker 5: Now, the public is not right just because it's the public.

00:27:07
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, in any other formal life, go cut somebody off and see what happened.

00:27:10
Speaker 4: I agree with you, Shannon, it would be rude. But zipper merge.

00:27:16
Speaker 5: Is different. It is scientific. Shannon, Yeah, it is.

00:27:20
Speaker 6: I'm supposed to have heard the front of the line. Let me cut everybody else off.

00:27:23
Speaker 5: No, it's not everyone.

00:27:26
Speaker 4: The point is if everybody did it, it wouldn't be cutting people off because we would be doing the most efficient thing.

00:27:32
Speaker 5: Drew, you see what I'm saying.

00:27:34
Speaker 7: So you're thinking you're kind of you're leading and everyone else is just behind on what we're doing here.

00:27:39
Speaker 5: You think the way what I'm doing is trying to take humanity to a better place.

00:27:46
Speaker 7: So you're just really a man of the people with your zipper merge.

00:27:48
Speaker 4: I'm a man of trying to lead the people to a brighter tomorrow. It's what we're It's basically, it's basically what we're saying. Doesn't sound like you bought it right. One person rights Mad. I was at the golf scramble on Friday. I think it was the most fun one you've had, didn't get a lot of rain. Ryan and Mario were nice to everyone. Thank you for putting it on. I do think it was one of amazingly Ryan, it didn't rain. I mean we got through that whole day. After it poured. It literally kind of stopped right before we started.

00:28:19
Speaker 5: Him. By the end of the day, it was nice.

00:28:21
Speaker 2: It was a beautiful day out on the golf course, and I think that maybe the fastest scramble we've ever had. Usually we're stuck out there till six or seven o'clock.

00:28:28
Speaker 5: Was spread out over two courses.

00:28:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, there wasn't any backups on my side anyway. Didn't see anybody.

00:28:34
Speaker 5: Really was it really wasn't it was? It was. It was great.

00:28:38
Speaker 2: I heard a rumor that Judge Gabe is the only person that hit the CNS Pools bullseye the whole day.

00:28:45
Speaker 5: He did. He hit the bullseye. He won. I don't know what they gave away, but he won something.

00:28:49
Speaker 2: I think he's the only one prizes wild eggs.

00:28:52
Speaker 4: If you chipped in this little bucket, you got like a free meal, and I got that one.

00:28:56
Speaker 5: I was able to hit it in that. Gabe hit the pool thing and what was it. Who won? I think did we ever find out who won?

00:29:04
Speaker 7: I did not defend my crown. I don't know what one on my course, but it was not me.

00:29:09
Speaker 2: Scores were better on you on your course, Matt than Truce course.

00:29:12
Speaker 7: Well Cat's a little tougher.

00:29:14
Speaker 5: Yeah.

00:29:14
Speaker 4: Well it was a lot of fun, and thank you to the University Club for hosting it and all the people that came out. It seemed like one of the more positive experiences. We agree, so appreciate all of it. Who's up next, Mike, Mike, Go ahead, Mike.

00:29:32
Speaker 10: A couple of things. Vick Travis was a umpire. He actually had an umpiring school here in Lexington that I attended when I was in college, and it was it was really good and I think it's something I'm missing now as far as referee coverage and stuff in this area. The other thing is, if you think Kentucky baseball it was painful, how would you like to be banned? Or Texas number one? Number two overall? Seaton the entire thing both got eliminated. And then lastly, there's a really a douchebag move to do what you do on.

00:30:05
Speaker 5: The Okay, that's stop it right now.

00:30:07
Speaker 2: Holidays right there.

00:30:10
Speaker 5: What's the name of that caller. What's the name of the caller, Mike, have you studied the science of the zipper merge?

00:30:17
Speaker 6: He already dropped the mic and hung up. He's gone.

00:30:20
Speaker 4: He's not interested in the science. He's interested in feelings, Shannon, not facts. And I'm just trying to promote facts as to what it is. The number one and two seeds lost in the baseball tournament, right, and that's the first time that's happened since nineteen ninety nine. And Tennessee has a chance to go down today. They're one of the top seeds. LSU has a chance to go down. So it feels like if there was ever gonna be a year for a random team to win the baseball tournament, this might be the one. A lot of SEC teams down. You know, we had fourteen teams in. I think there's only six left uh in the se in the tournament.

00:30:57
Speaker 2: You know, I'm pulling for Murray State to take out Old Missy also, so there could be a lot more SEC teams fall out.

00:31:02
Speaker 5: Today. Speaking of an SEC team, an SEC coach made some news though. This is what I'm gonna play you.

00:31:11
Speaker 4: This is the Coastal Carolina coach Okay, Coastal Carolina is hosting a regional and Florida was in their region. Florida got eliminated, and I guess Florida was upset because a game started later than it was supposed to for rain reasons, and they got mad and took it out on the Well you'll hear the Coastal Carolina coach after they win to make the to go to the super regionals, Coastal Carolina coach goes to the press conference and he had this to say about the Florida coach.

00:31:46
Speaker 5: What about that?

00:31:47
Speaker 4: Shannon thinks he can come and bully people around, calls out the Florida coach for being a jerk and trying to bully people around.

00:31:55
Speaker 5: Do you like that?

00:31:57
Speaker 6: I like that he's calling them out. Absolutely.

00:31:59
Speaker 3: I would like to know, oh specifically how he was bullying them, But I liked it.

00:32:03
Speaker 4: This guy, well Drew, there's a video. Have anybody seen the video of the coach. He's kind of like give them the giving him the heared fore. I guess he's mad that they were postponing the start of the game, which was gonna make Florida have to play later. And then they might have to play again.

00:32:17
Speaker 5: He was good.

00:32:17
Speaker 4: He was upset that they were delaying the start of his game because if they won, it wouldn't give him enough rest for the night game. Well, he ended up losing, so it didn't matter anyway. But Drew, do you like calling out Florida's Hall of Fame coach and saying, uh, don't be picking on my on my field crew?

00:32:36
Speaker 5: I love it.

00:32:36
Speaker 7: We need more of this, normalize calling out other coaches with behind the scenes stories who wouldn't otherwise know No, A lot of times this would happen and it would just never see the light of the day. The Coastal Carolina coach would take his anger home with him to bed. But this guy said, no, I'm telling everybody. I'm tattletelling in this press conference. And now we can see the Florida coach. I've seen the clip you're talking about, just berating someone who probably had nothing to do with any of the decisions, just someone work in the field that day, and I'm glad he got called out for it. Bring more drama to light.

00:33:06
Speaker 4: I agree call out coach, especially I'm four Ryan calling out coaches for being jerks to people just doing their job. I love the Coastal Carolina coach. I'm a fan of his.

00:33:15
Speaker 2: Now I have not I don't know who this guy is, but I'm a huge fan as well. You know, kids has always been a kind of cardinal Real coaches don't say anything bad about other coaches, but something like that guy trying to bully the field maintenance like it's their fault it was raining that day, like they had nothing to do with it. Their trying to get the field ready for you to play.

00:33:32
Speaker 4: Shut up, Hey, if I'm nine to eight oh twenty two eighty seven, calm down, Ryan.

Speaker 4: Did you did any of you watch King of the Hill when you were Was he any King.

00:34:12
Speaker 5: Of the Hill fans?

00:34:14
Speaker 7: Some?

00:34:15
Speaker 2: Not, not often some?

00:34:16
Speaker 11: Yeah?

00:34:17
Speaker 5: Okay, Well one of the guys who did the voice of John Redcorn does anybody know that character anyway? Shot at his house by neighbor in Texas? So that's wow.

00:34:29
Speaker 4: WHOA, well, yeah, that's uh, by your neighbor. That's well, it's unfortunately sad to hear that. We'll take a break and be right back. It's Kentucky Sports Radio. I'm glad to see that I have some support on the text machine. Seven uh seven seven two seven seven four five two five four The text of the day. One person rights, Matt, being the only one that understands ZIP emerge the correct way, uh is almost infuriating. It's very simple, and I don't understand how these other three guys who are smart can't wrap their minds around it.

00:35:04
Speaker 5: Totally agree with you on that.

00:35:06
Speaker 6: Yeah, it is very cutting in line.

00:35:08
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, so let me read you this one one person rights, Matt. I feel like this will help those guys under a stand to think about the two lanes at McDonald's.

00:35:18
Speaker 5: What do people do?

00:35:20
Speaker 4: Do they either all go in one long lane and then get to the front and decide which way to go, or are there two long lanes that at the end after you order zipper merged together. Difference, that's the way it could be in traffic, exactly, big difference.

00:35:37
Speaker 7: That's a forced zipper merge. There's no one navigating our zuper merge.

00:35:42
Speaker 5: It's not far.

00:35:43
Speaker 4: People could just decide to sit in one lane, but they've over time collectively realized to get into that it works better.

00:35:51
Speaker 5: So that should be what society is like. We should follow. The McDonald's drive through. McDonald's has showcased that this is the best what.

00:36:02
Speaker 3: Well we need ron at McDonald out there on the highway directing traffic.

00:36:05
Speaker 4: See, I've left you speechless, Ryan, because you know you what we this.

00:36:09
Speaker 5: This person makes the right point.

00:36:10
Speaker 2: No, I think most people listening. Then they response to that Drew and I have gotten are definitely.

00:36:15
Speaker 6: A text machine, says other.

00:36:18
Speaker 4: What text machine? You don't have a text machine? What is your text machine?

00:36:23
Speaker 7: Ryan's the original text machine.

00:36:25
Speaker 2: My cell phone got some things I can't even sell.

00:36:28
Speaker 5: Tell you what those do? You?

00:36:30
Speaker 4: You asked for this yourself, Ryan, Those of you who know Ryan's text machine text team and tell him who's correct.

00:36:37
Speaker 5: I think he would like to hear from you.

00:36:38
Speaker 2: Ok, yeah, that'd be great. I can't wait to get those.

00:36:44
Speaker 6: But you got a new phone, it should be ready.

00:36:46
Speaker 2: My new phone does work finally, Oh you got a new phone. I had to get a new phone. Finally got out to work, still green.

00:36:53
Speaker 5: But you get Did you get an iPhone? No?

00:36:55
Speaker 2: Absolutely not Android?

00:36:58
Speaker 5: What is the what is your brand is? What is the name of it?

00:37:02
Speaker 2: Samsung Galaxy twenty one I think is when I'm working with the days.

00:37:06
Speaker 7: Did you get the insurance?

00:37:08
Speaker 2: Of course I got the insurance.

00:37:09
Speaker 7: I had to get the warranty.

00:37:11
Speaker 4: Yeah, Samsung Galaxy twenty one. How many where are we on the Galaxy world? Is this one of the newer ones or is this an old one?

00:37:18
Speaker 2: No, it's definitely an old one, probably before COVID, I think so before yeah.

00:37:24
Speaker 6: Forty, I mean maybe agree.

00:37:26
Speaker 5: Okay, let's Shannon look up. What's where are we on? The same?

00:37:30
Speaker 7: Looks like they're on the twenty five?

00:37:33
Speaker 5: You're and you got twenty.

00:37:34
Speaker 2: One twenty one? Twenty one? Yeah, I my insurance was a swap one for the other.

00:37:41
Speaker 4: Oh, so you got to swap on a twenty one, So in perpetuity you can only get twenty one?

00:37:46
Speaker 2: Correct?

00:37:47
Speaker 4: Have you got insurance on this one that also will only get you twenty one?

00:37:51
Speaker 2: Well, you can, you know, pay the upgrade if you want to pay another.

00:37:54
Speaker 5: Time you didn't pay that.

00:37:55
Speaker 4: So basically, Shannon the cell phone technology in twenty nineteen, he's going to be Ryan's forever, right like he can never.

00:38:07
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, what's twenty five I'm gonna do? The twenty one can't do?

00:38:11
Speaker 5: Well?

00:38:11
Speaker 4: I mean I would still dry sensing, speed is quicker, Yeah, the camera is better. I'm sure there's gonna be AI features integrated in new ones, and Ryan, you're just never gonna get any of those.

00:38:22
Speaker 2: No, I don't need any of that. I just need to be able to text you guys, make a few phone calls.

00:38:26
Speaker 5: So you bought insurance again? Oh yeah on a phone that's six years old? Yes, yes, so by drop it and crack it and break it again.

00:38:36
Speaker 7: But how much would you twenty one be if you just bought it if it's such an old model.

00:38:41
Speaker 5: Conceivably be now? I bet it's very cheap because no one would buy it. Yeah, I don't know if I could. I just got the insurance and it has a swamp, But did you look into it? Did you look into maybe?

00:38:52
Speaker 7: Going so there's some for one hundred. Here's some for one hundred and eighty dollars brand new on eBay.

00:38:57
Speaker 4: Okay, so that's good, all right. So it's one hundred and eighty dollars. How much are you paying a month in insurance?

00:39:02
Speaker 2: I just paid it one hundred dollars deductible, so I don't know what the monthly charge is.

00:39:07
Speaker 5: No, but going forward, how much a month is your insurance?

00:39:09
Speaker 2: I don't know.

00:39:11
Speaker 5: That might be good. You may have ended up paying, like let's say you're paying twenty dollars a month in insurance. You may end up paying in eight months what the whole phone would have cost. Period.

00:39:27
Speaker 6: It's possible you don't pay for that phone twice over.

00:39:31
Speaker 4: I mean almost certainly it's the case, Ryan, that you are going to in a year pay for the phone in insurance and still not have paid for the phone.

00:39:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, the insurre is not twenty dollars. I think it's like single digits, four or five.

00:39:50
Speaker 5: But you don't know.

00:39:51
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't My phone is just buzzing like crazy right now I really appreciate that good.

00:39:58
Speaker 6: Are they agreeing with us or are they agreeing with Matt?

00:40:01
Speaker 4: I can't like you Gotta at least know how much the insurance is and make a good financial decision.

00:40:08
Speaker 5: That's all I'm asking.

00:40:09
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll make up my new bill, and what is the.

00:40:12
Speaker 7: Value of the twenty one? Is only gonna go down? Maybe in a year it's one hundred dollars maybe, Yeah.

00:40:16
Speaker 2: That's the will become a collector's item.

00:40:17
Speaker 5: It I'll go up.

00:40:18
Speaker 4: But that's why you don't do these things, because the value goes down, and if you ever need to replace it and you want to buy the same one you have, it will be cheaper than the amount of insurance you paid up until that point.

00:40:30
Speaker 5: You guys, do you.

00:40:30
Speaker 2: Remember who you're talking to? Stuff?

00:40:35
Speaker 5: We're trying to help you. Who's next.

00:40:37
Speaker 6: Let's go to Joe.

00:40:39
Speaker 5: Joe just got a minute quickly.

00:40:42
Speaker 11: I was gonna say something about that that drone thing. But when the Samsung twenty one came out, Kentucky basketball was four and seven and coming off a twenty point loss to Alabama, had already lost to Richmond, wake Forest, North Carolina, Ruisville. I'm glad he's gone. I love you, Mark, folks, keen enjoyed Ryan.

00:41:06
Speaker 4: This was he bought the he bought the Samsung twenty one. Was right after Olivier Sar missed another open jumper.

00:41:13
Speaker 5: Drew to win the game.

00:41:15
Speaker 4: So thanks for that memory. Thank you all right, Ryan, thanks for entertaining us on the way out. We will be back tomorrow.

00:41:24
Speaker 5: Enjoy your Monday on the second of June, and this has been Kentucky Sports Radio.
