00:02:30
Speaker 4: That's right, you did win it the next year. So guys, it feels like I've come full circle a little bit, from a part time producer now to hosting the show. But I thank you for having me this morning.

00:02:40
Speaker 6: You're having us. You're the host, we are your guests. Thank you for having us on the show today. But we're excited for you to drive a little bit. I'm just gonna sit back here and speak when spoken to you.

00:02:48
Speaker 4: Yeah, do your thing.

00:02:49
Speaker 5: I'm a little misty eyed see you or you're all going at you and Mario? What you guys grow up right in front of our eye now here, you're a thirty year old man getting ready to get married this summer. It's crazy.

00:02:57
Speaker 4: Well, I do want to get to that. I need some wet advice from my uncles here that will be coming to the wedd It hiden perfectly. And then mar you mentioned Mario, I want to get to Mario. You wait, Mario, I got some stuff to say about you a little bit later in the show. But right I got a gift for you. That's something I want to give you here to start the show. Oh the key, and that is the key that you gave me yesterday to get into KOs bar this morning.

00:03:17
Speaker 5: Yes, does not work.

00:03:19
Speaker 4: And Monique said that this key has not worked four years. It's been multiple years since they've used the Wildcat blue key to get in. So i'd you want to return the key this morning?

00:03:29
Speaker 5: Oh great, how did you get in? Then?

00:03:32
Speaker 4: Okay, so she was here, Yeah, Monique was here. She let me in the door. But you might want to get that change, Ryan, in case you want to get into the bar a little bit later this week or.

00:03:40
Speaker 5: At all I've had to use it to get in the last four years.

00:03:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, four years ago.

00:03:44
Speaker 4: Probably not Mab, it was multiple years since the key's been here.

00:03:49
Speaker 6: You can throw in the junk drawer with the A vision glasses.

00:03:51
Speaker 5: There we go. Yeah, so well, I'm glad you got in. That's the main thing.

00:03:54
Speaker 4: Yeah, I got in. We did the pre show. We had a great time. Shannon and I will keep it rolling for another couple of hours. Here we mentioned it is April and tough day for everybody that gets fooled by the news on Facebook. When it comes to Kentucky Wildcats, it's just gonna be one of those Internet literate days, Drew when it comes to these things.

00:04:12
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's April Fool's Day for them through sixty five, but it really ramps up. I personally hate this holiday. I see it as people who aren't funny think it's their time to shine, and it's usually not good. I keep my guard up already, but I've not seen a good April Fools prank in many years. I don't know about you all, but it's to the point I feel like we should just take it off the calendar. Does anyone really love this holiday or we all kind of roll our eyes.

00:04:35
Speaker 4: It's a little overplayed to keep asking me. I mean it was, I mean a little different back in the early two thousands, Shannon I talked about this this morning, like, I don't know, everybody's very sensitive. Ryan, Yeah, you know, it's comedy isn't taken the same anymore. So maybe that's kind of ruined the holiday a little bit.

00:04:51
Speaker 5: Well, we were all younger. I think it was a big deal. You know, we're always trying to get your mom and dad or something. Now it's like not even kind of forget it's even April Fool's Day.

00:05:00
Speaker 4: Now.

00:05:01
Speaker 6: Well, now every brand with the Twitter account puts something out true, a restaurant, everything. It's you just open social media in the morning and just scroll through all the dumb graphics that nobody falls for. I'm coming off as a scrooge here on April Fool's Day, but it's just it's become too much and everyone has their guard up, and the only people that are still trying are the people who aren't funny.

00:05:18
Speaker 5: Should we tell him what we aprilfooled you this morning? How'd you get me McDonald's in Winchester Road. That was not a great experience. That wasn't April. It was we was just in common. We don't think that was We called and said, Drew's gonna stop Messy's order up and let him take thirty minutes to get through that.

00:05:33
Speaker 6: You're not gonna pull a mat, but some people need to figure it out.

00:05:35
Speaker 4: Yeah, I didn't know we were going there recording.

00:05:38
Speaker 6: But it was a venture. But I don't think that was April fool's. I think that was just general incompetence.

00:05:43
Speaker 4: Well, you know, Ryan, did you ever work fast food back in the day.

00:05:45
Speaker 5: I haven't. I probably should have any thing. Everybody should do it at least once to appreciate what happens there.

00:05:51
Speaker 6: I never have loved it. I think everybody should do it. I said everybody should serve in a restaurant or one of the two. You gotta deal deal with people like I did this morning. I did drive through. I rolled Tacos on Taco Tuesday every Tuesday, cashier clean bathroom. Started as a dishwasher. I actually enjoyed the fast food experience back when I did it.

00:06:09
Speaker 5: And I think it leads you to be a better patron when you go to the Restaurant's a better tipper. For sure, you understand the staff a little better. So I never did you. No, never fast food.

00:06:19
Speaker 4: But I worked at a Dick Sporting Goods for one summer and they used to stay on the walkie talkie who just folded these clothes in the middle of Dick Sporting because this is not how you fold clothes. So I was banished from actually doing the clothes. I just stayed in the golf section. But it was it built some character. I don't know why everybody blames the guy at the register when they returned something to Drew, like it was my fault that was broken. But I agree with you Ryan, everybody should do it at least once.

00:06:43
Speaker 5: Well, you know, I grew up in Well, Indiana. Well there were surprisingly no Dicks Sporting Goods. There's no McDonald's, there's nothing. There's an elementary school and a post dollar. So I mowed grass. That was my job growing up. Yeah, mowing grass.

00:06:55
Speaker 4: And if you mode yet, I mean, this is a big week for mowen for a lot of people.

00:06:59
Speaker 5: I didn't mo but I had a guy mol my grass because it is time. You don't get on top of it now and I'll end up being a jungle before too long.

00:07:06
Speaker 4: Well, it's a weird time in sports, right waiting for the Final Four this weekend, Shannon and I discussed eight hundred players have entered to transfer portal. Yeah, the portal is not open until for another week. So we're just kind of waiting on edge to see some news break. And it was kind of quiet yesterday. We didn't get much news after Moe Williams joined the staff and the rumors about Tyrone Stokes. Did watch him in the McDonald's All American Game last night, you guys turned that on at all.

00:07:31
Speaker 6: I caught the highlights. I didn't watch it love, but I was up earlier this morning and pulled it up on the old ESPN app and kind of fast forward through the commercials and did a a I guess a quick rewatch, But yeah, I caught a lot of it.

00:07:40
Speaker 4: Yeah, he looked pretty good in the fourth quarter. Do you have like a hoodie on underneath this jersey?

00:07:45
Speaker 5: Is that what he was wearing.

00:07:46
Speaker 6: It's a new trend. I liked a lot of people today, especially on ks board, are loving what they saw out of him as a distributor. We even have a thread like make him point guard one. I think that's a bit of an overreaction to how he played last night, but he did show off why he's the number one one player in the class.

00:08:01
Speaker 4: Nine of his twelve points being in the fourth quarter, had a double double, got to ten rebounds. Ryan, I mean, you saw why he was the number one prospect here in the class.

00:08:09
Speaker 5: I talked to a guy that knows basketball yesterday and we were like, you know, I hear he's a problem in the locker room. I hear he's a problem, you know, not a good teammate. But if he's the number one player in the class, if nothing else, you go get that kid for the perception purpose that you have the ability to recruit that type of caliber player. Poop poop. Pope's not proved he can recruit that type of player yet, so perception he has to go out and poop and get that guy.

00:08:38
Speaker 6: I don't know about all the language there, but I agree he's got to get go out and get Stokes. Pope needs a lot of wins. Almost said it too, No, Pope needs a lot of wins right now. I liked mo Williams. Williams higher as I said yesterday. There's been some debate on that, but he needs to to get some offseason wins. Yeah, and he can't do anything really till they get on the court next year. But he needs to give a big blue nation some reasons to smile after how the year went.

00:08:59
Speaker 4: Yeah, for those perception purposes. Get the number one guy, Get a former NBA champion. Yeah, links to a guy like Lebron Maybe Broni comes to Rapperina one of these days, Mario, if we can get that connection going. But it was exciting to see Tyron play and and Myron Medcalf was on. I don't know if it was halftime or during one of the breaks. He basically said, it's gonna come down to Bill self coming back to Kansas or not, whether Tyron Stokes goes to Kentucky or Kansas.

00:09:22
Speaker 5: And I think that there's what, like Jack was talking about, the Adidas Nike thing does play into it. You know, us old folks didn't think it makes some different what shoe you wear. You know, if he grew up a Nike kid, he played for the Nike organization. He his AAU team was Nike, it makes it. It makes a difference for these kids, really what their shoe company is.

00:09:39
Speaker 6: He already has a Nike deal like he signed, So it'll be awkward if he does go to Kansas. I don't know if he'll wear Nikes and put tape over it or wear Adidas and put tape over that. But you know that's a that'll be a unique situation he's in if he goes to Kansas.

00:09:51
Speaker 4: I wonder how that works, Like obviously they would still go to the school, but would you cover things up with Tate?

00:09:56
Speaker 6: But how that would work?

00:09:56
Speaker 5: I don't think they'd let him, would they.

00:09:58
Speaker 6: I can only like what Michael Jordan the Olympics. They weren't Nike and he covered up rebox.

00:10:02
Speaker 7: Yeah.

00:10:03
Speaker 6: I didn't even think of times like this. This has even happened because in college this has never been an issue until now. But he's already got a Nike deal, but seems to be leaning towards an Adida school.

00:10:12
Speaker 4: Well, the perception seems to be that he'll make a decision after the Nike Hoops Summit on April eleventh. So if we're looking at the timeline here, the transferportal opens April seventh, you have this Nike sum in April eleventh, and then Ryan, maybe you have a much better idea of who's going to be on this team next year.

00:10:25
Speaker 5: You know all the conspiracy theorists we're out there. You know Mo Williams good with friends of Jamal Crawford, who coaches Tyron's strokes. This is all a big package deal. You get Mason Williams, which leads to Mo Williams, which leads to Jamal Crawford, which leads to Tyron's joke. So those conspiracy theories are out. Yeah.

00:10:40
Speaker 6: Like also, Billy, it's not the Adidas Hoop Summit, it's the Nike Hoop Summit. I'm saying that's, oh yeah, be excited about. He's gonna be in Oregon at the Nike facility with Nike people. Maybe they can get into Zer and steerhim towards me.

00:10:52
Speaker 4: Saying that just makes doesn't make a lot of sense if you're all Nike and then.

00:10:55
Speaker 5: You just pivot to an Adida school like that. But at that event, at that big Nike of well, I agree.

00:11:01
Speaker 6: With Myron that it's he's probably waiting to see what Bill Self was doing. You think so, And if Self retires that obviously that'd be very good for us. It seems he's waiting for that. Now, who knows when that decision could come.

00:11:11
Speaker 4: Well, hopefully he hangs up the two pay and he is done at Kansas, and that would be a big step for Kentucky. I did, like, you know, will Stein coming from Oregon, seems like he's going to embrace maybe some throwbacks, maybe some different uniform combos. I've got a little power k on this morning. On the hat that I'm yes here.

00:11:31
Speaker 6: I mean with the kids.

00:11:33
Speaker 4: I had to go at least a little vintage with the the Sutton hat, and now Ryan I got the new new look.

00:11:38
Speaker 5: You know, the old timers, they love that power Case so much. It just one time he would bring that back. One time they would all be on back on well not back on board, but jump on board with will Stein. Just that one thing could do that could reinvent venuate, reinventvnuate, reignite his fan base.

00:11:56
Speaker 6: What is happening? I can't even say vocabulary. I said it yesterday. The Power Case is coming. Just get ready, Shannon, do you agree? I mean, you old school kind of guy, you liked the Power Case?

00:12:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do.

00:12:07
Speaker 3: I mean I think when Pope brought back the denim, fans love that. Anything that's nostalgic that reminds you of like when you were younger.

00:12:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, cases, like when you were.

00:12:15
Speaker 4: A kids didn't hurt.

00:12:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, Yeah, when you were younger. I think that's a good thing. So if he brings it back, people will love it.

00:12:21
Speaker 2: I'm sure.

00:12:22
Speaker 4: Well give us called today five nine two eight zero two two eight seven. As we extend the KSR pre show for a couple hours here, I'd like to hear, maybe if you have an April Fool's joke that actually did go over well and was successful, even though Drew probably doubts that it ever happened.

00:12:36
Speaker 6: Maybe back in the day. It's just now everyone on social media it's like, look at this fake image, look at this fake when you just it's it's too much.

00:12:44
Speaker 5: I told it on the story the show. One other time, I went to Channel seven in Evansville. You grew up watching Channel seven in Evansville. Stole all the wheels off the bottom of all the church in the sales department. So they come to work the next morning and there there's no wheels on their chairs. Classic one of my best Aprilful's jokes ever.

00:13:01
Speaker 6: And they hated you, right, they called.

00:13:02
Speaker 5: Me, threatened to fire me if I didn't get down there right now and put those wheels back on those chairs.

00:13:07
Speaker 6: How old was Rotheringman when he pulled this.

00:13:08
Speaker 5: Break twenty five twenty six a.

00:13:10
Speaker 6: Newsroom where people are stressful and busy.

00:13:12
Speaker 5: Yeah, rolling around in.

00:13:13
Speaker 6: Their chairs going computer to computer, no wheels, unbelievable.

00:13:17
Speaker 4: I'm just trying to start my day and Ryan's taking the wheels off of my chairs.

00:13:20
Speaker 5: And then the next year, I took a bunch of scotch tape and taped the door and handle while they couldn't open the door handle. Nob I got me fired too.

00:13:28
Speaker 6: Amazing.

00:13:28
Speaker 4: He's gonna remember maybe two or three more of these dyah throughout the show, So we'll talk a little bit about that and much more on the way. I appreciate everybody well letting me be in the driver's seat today.

00:13:37
Speaker 5: And little Billy's all grown up.

00:13:39
Speaker 4: That's right, and uh, Jack and Nick did a great job these last two days. So hopefully here to carry the mantle. We'll take a break and be right back here on Kentucky Sports Radio. Welcome back to Kentucky Sports Radio. We're live at KOs Bar today. Billy Rutledge, Ryan Lemon, Drew Franklin, Shannon the dude. I thought it was April Fool's Day yesterday when Drew said he was watching Bob Ross and the Joy of Painting as your new TV show.

00:14:03
Speaker 6: I can't get over how much support I got for that. I thought I would be made fun of all night. I was looking forward to going home and just getting roasted. I think it's one hundred percent.

00:14:13
Speaker 5: Positive, it's not one positive. I got people on my side for me. Yeah, that I can't leave Drew watching that.

00:14:20
Speaker 6: Well, everyone that reached out to me, they were telling me their favorite episodes. So people showed me where they've done Bob Ross paintings. They've gone to the Bob Ross Museum. I've had people say, are you serious about a Joy of Painting podcast? And I thought, you know what, I wouldn't, But if we need to do it, we can do it.

00:14:35
Speaker 5: You and Shannon could do it all though you're like, what that crazy show?

00:14:37
Speaker 3: It's amazing is you look and you see that there's eight hundred different episodes, which means he painted eight hundred different pictures, although it seems like every episode I can remember he was essentially painting the same picture.

00:14:47
Speaker 6: Oh, I'm on season five and he's done the same landscape every time.

00:14:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's still amazing, Like it's not any less impressive every time you watch it over and over.

00:14:55
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the beauty of it is it always even though it doesn't look like much. If a picture and it starts, it always ends up developing. And uh, you know, dude and I were talking about it earlier. It'd be sticky figures if you had us painting up.

00:15:06
Speaker 6: There, Drew, we should try it. I'm thinking about doing a video where maybe I sit down on my couch with a nice bourbon and it's like a split screen and I kind of narrate what I'm watching why I like it. Maybe have someone with me, we'll do kind of a podcast while watching Bob. We'll kind of talk over it.

00:15:22
Speaker 4: You know, Ryan, I once took a cooking class together. Maybe you did, like a bit of a painting class, drill.

00:15:27
Speaker 6: I don't need a class. I just need to I don't even need to paint. I just want to sit down and enjoy.

00:15:30
Speaker 5: Watching paint with Bob Ross.

00:15:33
Speaker 6: Yes, I mean, he's great, and it's the it's the voice, happy Tree. It's just so soft it's hard to stay awake. I'll admit, but I knocked out another episode last night. I think I'm on five episode three. I got about twenty four seasons to go.

00:15:46
Speaker 4: So spoiler, such a hater.

00:15:49
Speaker 5: Because it's awful. I could watch like five seconds of it, Like that's enough. I can't want to open your mind to the art, can't stay in the watch this.

00:15:58
Speaker 3: The paint Dry Painting has a nine point three out of ten on IMDb. Wow, anything else that has a nine?

00:16:08
Speaker 4: Yeah, it probably did the kids some good today to watch something like that that's not over stimulating flashing lights. You know, it'd probably go a long way. And you know, Drew is the next father here of the group. Maybe you can get your next or your child on the Bob Ross on Bob or.

00:16:22
Speaker 6: She will be watching lots of Bob Bro As I said, I got twenty something seasons to go. Oh my goodness, I'm sure she'll be there for a lot of them. We'll go through it together.

00:16:29
Speaker 5: Then, they used to have a Bob Ross lunch paiale for elementary school kids.

00:16:35
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I'm sure they surely.

00:16:37
Speaker 5: Yeah, they had a Bob Ross chia pet. I've seen that.

00:16:40
Speaker 6: It sounds like you like Bob Ross a little more than I do. You're talking about the merch. I'll have to look into the lunchbox chia pets.

00:16:47
Speaker 4: Now, you're bringing up some good memories, like I don't know if I had a chia pet, but I really wanted one as a kid.

00:16:51
Speaker 5: I think they have a Bob Ross chia pet where his hair grows on top of this.

00:16:56
Speaker 3: That's right there, Ryan, you should do a Ryan Lemon chia petug.

00:17:04
Speaker 5: Grow.

00:17:05
Speaker 6: I looked it up. There's one at true value. It can be at my front porch by Thursday. So there we go. Maybe I'll get a Bob brother.

00:17:11
Speaker 5: And then bring it in here on the table and we'll watch it grow.

00:17:14
Speaker 4: Perfect if we can make a chia pet Ryan Lemon one, I mean that would be perfect. I would absoutely would probably sell out with in seconds. Can I give you two of the TV shows that I'm watching? Yes, I didn't get to chime in up. This is a little nerdy. Shannon may laugh at this, But the New Game of Thrones spin off, A Night of the Seven Kingdoms really good stuff, really good stuff. If you're into that universe or either you.

00:17:35
Speaker 5: Seen it loved it.

00:17:36
Speaker 6: That did a great job. I was a little worried, but I like what they did. They looked at the original Game of Thrones and like, this is way too complicated. The Men's too big, too many characters, too many families. I would have to I love the show, and I would have to pause it and be like, how is this person really this person? This new season, They're like, we're gonna dumb it down. It's gonna be one location and the like ten characters. And I thought it was great. I loved it.

00:17:56
Speaker 4: Yeah, really good. Uh and and not that many episodes, like six or seven ryans, so even if you're not in the Game of Thrones universe, it is good. And then Netflix has this documentary I don't know if you call it a documentary about the dinosaurs. Have you thrown that on yet? With Morgan Freeman narrating, Oh, come on, Ryan, anything with him narrating, it's gotta be good, right exactly? Yes, I mean, and you just PLoP yourself on the couch watch an episode of the Dinosaurs if you're having a bad day, Ryan, and I think that'd get you through it. Well.

00:18:23
Speaker 5: I started in the Neighbors last night. I watched the first two episodes of The Neighbors yeah, so I'm kind of hooked already.

00:18:27
Speaker 6: Welcome to the show. It's insanity, isn't it.

00:18:29
Speaker 4: It's crazy they're nudity in episode one?

00:18:32
Speaker 6: Or is that?

00:18:32
Speaker 5: No? No, I already have my favorite character, so anxiou see how it plays out.

00:18:38

Speaker 4: Ryan LeMond, Andrew Franklin, and Shannon the Dude Wall'll be there for the big day. My wedding planner is kind of getting on me today. You know what that I need to do? Like what's on the to do list?

00:23:23
Speaker 6: You're gonna give me nightmares thinking back those days.

00:23:25
Speaker 4: It's a lot, probably a lot.

00:23:26
Speaker 6: What's today's agenda?

00:23:28
Speaker 4: I gotta buy a margarita machine. Yeah, I gotta buy one, well like rent it? Yeah, yeah, we gotta get we gotta get two industrial size margarita machines. We're gonna have it out like the little cocktail hour reception area because it's August. We're gonna have you outside. So what's the next best thing is to have a margarita ready for should.

00:23:47
Speaker 3: Just put that on your registry for people to buy one for you? You know that's the thing.

00:23:51
Speaker 5: See, I just feel weird asking for gifts. Now you gotta do it part of the wedding. This is the one time in your life where you can get away with it. Whatever you want. Put it on the list.

00:24:01
Speaker 6: You won't feel weird asking for gifts when you see what you've spent for this event, you won't feel bad at all.

00:24:06
Speaker 4: On this radio salary, I mean, if we want to go back to great Moments and Billy r sports k as our history. We were at the fair where I got my paycheck that ended up being twenty dollars for that week. Ryan, Wow, you got twenty dollars twenty dollars as I forgot to insert my hours that week. That's why it came in like that.

00:24:22
Speaker 6: But that won't buy a very big of margaret.

00:24:24
Speaker 4: You're not kidding about that, Drew. No Harper Hall for me, did you you have any advice for me as I go through this wedding process as the most recent one to go through it all.

00:24:35
Speaker 6: My biggest piece of advice would be, don't buy the slim version of the pants if you're not slim yourself, because you will spend three hours of the night with your ass hanging out for all of.

00:24:45
Speaker 2: The guests that you really saved your ass that night.

00:24:47
Speaker 6: I did what did Taco boxers were a move on wedding day.

00:24:51
Speaker 5: It was nice.

00:24:51
Speaker 6: My groomsmen. They all offered to give me their pants, but I thought, you know what, I'm just gonna rock this. They got nice breeze back there. But I would definitely recommend going up a size if you if you like to dance, because mine were ripped from belt loop to shoe ten minutes into the reception and we had three hours to go, so I would just get the right pants and good enjoyed my tucks.

00:25:10
Speaker 5: You got good.

00:25:10
Speaker 4: Groomsmen willing to rip the pants off of their own body. Yes to you.

00:25:14
Speaker 3: The main thing is we got to make sure Ryan isn't the star of your wedding, because you know he was turning tables over and drinks and everything, and he was wearing drinks on his suit. By the end of the night. We had to get him out of there as quickly as possible. So Ryan, to have you reel it back, just a little bit, reel it in.

00:25:32
Speaker 5: I Thinkgeah, there's two bits of advice I can okay please, Yeah, keeping out for Nancy Franklin, Drew's mom careful. And if they give you cranberry vodka, make sure it's not a cranberry and a double vodka when you order like five or six of them. Those are the best advice I can give.

00:25:48
Speaker 6: You five or six of them while the sun is still up.

00:25:50
Speaker 2: We had a heavy holded bartender that night.

00:25:52
Speaker 5: Oh yes, Drew did.

00:25:55
Speaker 6: I've never shared these, but we got our you know, professional photos back and they mostly just sit in the fun. That's another piece of advice, billy photos. Like you think, yeah, of course we need a thousand photos. Then you get them and you're like, what am I going to do a thousand photos? But the point is I have so many of Ryan. There might be more of Ryan than a Abby in our photo gallery because he put on that much of a show.

00:26:15
Speaker 4: Wow, well, we've got a photographer or videographer. I mean, we've already taken those steps. True.

00:26:20
Speaker 6: Unfortunately, Yeah, you gotta have them. I'm just saying to get them, and it's like, well, what do I do with them now?

00:26:24
Speaker 5: Yeah?

00:26:24
Speaker 4: Well, I'll try not to rip my pants and uh, Ryan, I'll try not to drink. I don't think I'm gonna drink really much at all on the big day. And we've already decided we're going to do an Irish goodbye. Shannon and I talked about this actually yesterday, like we're not going to do the whole thing where you got to come over and say bye before you leave. He had like an announcement like, Hey, you know, we're gonna do our own thing. We may not say goodbye to every guest before we leave.

00:26:45
Speaker 5: Is that Rod?

00:26:46
Speaker 6: Before we even finished the ceremony, all the events.

00:26:49
Speaker 5: Ryan, Irish Irish Goodbye. I think Shannon had to put me in an uber to get out of the I had to take him by. I had to tuck them into bed, read them a bedtime story of that night.

00:26:57
Speaker 6: The one thing that I got burned on was a severe really underestimated how much alcohol my friends could put down, and I had a high bar for him, and they even blew pass it. I had an option of all you can drink three hours or all you can drink four hours, and I was like, I'll get the three and everybody will go hard in that fourth hour. They'll be dancing, they'll be distracted, and I'll just pay per drink in that fourth hour. Oh lord, that one hour of me paying per drink was more than the first three. So I backfired a little bit on what I thought my buddies could do at the bar. Happy, happy to swipe the credit card on that bill, but they surprised me.

00:27:33
Speaker 4: I am hoping like everybody dances and has a good time. There's nothing worse than people afraid to get on the dance floor. But you'll make sure doing that, Ryan, like, you'll set the tone.

00:27:40
Speaker 5: Well, that's why I had the cranberry and double vodka to get out there and shake shake, shake, shake, shake shake. Do you have your booty?

00:27:46
Speaker 6: Are you doing DJ? Like live music? What am I going to be dancing to? I need to know.

00:27:50
Speaker 4: You know, we thought about bringing Alice Blue Gun out there, but I want Shannon to enjoy himself. I don't want to like the clock. So the old ninety eight nine radio personality Kobe is that actually going to be doing the ceremony and the DJing for us. We got a meeting with him to talk about all the songs that we want him to play and want don't want him to play, like the Cha Cha Slide or the Cupid Shuffle.

00:28:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, please, none of that.

00:28:12
Speaker 5: That's so as old old white people can dance. We need songs like that. You do.

00:28:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, just play some Darius Rucker for Ryan and that'll be enough. That'll get him out there.

00:28:22
Speaker 6: Okay, So, Billy, I've got this thing I did for years and it's retired, but I might have to bring it out, bring it back out of retirement for you. But we would when shout would come on, I'd rally up all the biggest people I could find, and we try to throw the groom as high in the air as we possibly can. That's how I ended up at my wedding literally hanging from the raffers of Harper Hall. They were throwing me so high in the air. We've had guys so high we like wait a second for them to come back and catch them. They've been hitting chandeliers. It's a big thing. But we retired at my wedding. But I'm thinking I'm sizing back. We could We could get Billy airborne pretty easy. Oh yeah, so make sure Shout is on that playlist.

00:28:54
Speaker 4: I got good memories of Shout going at the Bills game with you for NFL Cover zero. That's kind of their thing, is playing that song in the stadium, So maybe we can get that done.

00:29:02
Speaker 5: Right. Well, I have found my wedding gift for Billy and Marissa.

00:29:05
Speaker 6: What is that? It's Bob Ross painting Bob Ross lunch box. Oh the lunch box.

00:29:10
Speaker 5: Uh huh, they do have a Bob Ross lunchbox. I just bought your wedding.

00:29:14
Speaker 4: To the expensive We have one of those live painters at the wedding.

00:29:18
Speaker 5: Oh yes, that would be awesome.

00:29:21
Speaker 4: Now if we can get that painter to wear like maybe an afro wig, maybe a perfec, the perfect seb.

00:29:26
Speaker 6: She's not listening. It's just us talking about what part of the planning is really like, Oh, this has beat me down pretty bad, because you know it is it is stressful.

00:29:34
Speaker 5: Yeah.

00:29:34
Speaker 4: Well, like I wanted her to kind of like take control and just like plan the whole thing. That has not been the case. Like I've been I've been have to be.

00:29:41
Speaker 5: Involved, Ryan, Yeah, she wants you to be in.

00:29:44
Speaker 3: She doesn't want Beta Billy as the wedding wedding planner here. She wants you to take control of it.

00:29:49
Speaker 4: I guess. But that's what I'm paying for wedding planners for. I thought they might just take care of that, but no, I'm I'm very involved. That's why we're trying to book a margarita machine today and the.

00:29:58
Speaker 5: Cigar marga from that. Yeah.

00:30:01
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we got money to do. But I'm looking for you guys, like sharing that happy day with you guys is going to be a highlight of my life, no doubt.

00:30:09
Speaker 5: Well, it's a it's a big year for us. Drew's gonna be a daddy for the first time, and you're getting married. It's a big couple of months for the KSR crew. So, uh, Tom, I'm really happy and proud of you guys. Really, I'm excited about what's getting ready to happen for you.

00:30:20
Speaker 4: Thank you, buddy. That means a lot. Yeah, and Drew offered to officiate the wedding yesterday. I don't know if that's gonna happen, but I guess you have the certificate.

00:30:27
Speaker 6: Yeah, I need to double check. It's been about four years when I got ordained. I don't know what the expiration date on it was.

00:30:33
Speaker 5: Maybe you need to take a continuing education class.

00:30:35
Speaker 6: But I've done a couple of weddings. If you need me to step in, happy to do it. I can find their certificate somewhere, and if not, I can just go get another one. Because all I did was put in my email address a little bit information and it showed up in minutes.

00:30:45
Speaker 4: It's actually quite easy, I guess, to get that certificate. So we'll keep you on standby. I'll step in if free of charge. Let's take our first call to day five.

00:30:53
Speaker 6: Nine to eight zero.

00:30:54

00:32:30
Speaker 4: Well, thank you so much. We appreciate the call and you calling in. I always love healing from hearing from our mail carriers or I guess painters outside people are doing actual jobs while we get to sit here, uh and talk about Bob Ross underwear.

00:32:43
Speaker 8: Bob bros.

00:32:46
Speaker 7: Boss. All right, we'll have a good day.

00:32:49
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, thank you.

00:32:50
Speaker 6: It's that's call to day. It's the only one so far, so it's in the conversation. I do not think this Bob Ross thing to take off like it has.

00:32:58
Speaker 5: I would secretly love a pair of Bob Ross boxer shorts.

00:33:02
Speaker 6: Okay, you gonna be awesome. You two can can work it out there.

00:33:04
Speaker 5: Yeah, that'd be pretty cool.

00:33:05
Speaker 6: Hang on to his number.

00:33:06
Speaker 4: But ran like you were breaking records for stolen bases in the state of Indiana. You didn't have like a pair of lucky underwear.

00:33:11
Speaker 5: Or well baseball players standing they are very superstitious. And so I had my same undershirt and same socks that I had to wear. Oh yes, you wash them? Oh yeah, yeah, okay, yeah, I washed him. But uh, you know, when you're in college, maybe you don't wash him every after every game. You know, I've had a bad game and didn't get it dirty, It's still okay for the next game.

00:33:32
Speaker 4: Well, college is high enough level where I think you'd be washing after every game.

00:33:36
Speaker 5: No, you know, the laundry was down in the basement of the dorm and uh, there's like there was like three washers and if you didn't get there early, you had to wait till the middle of the night to wash your clothes. So sometimes you had to just pick and choose when you're gonna do your laundry.

00:33:49
Speaker 6: Okay, we saw malcom Mareno do that with the sleeve this year. Remember you washes there, maybe washing it just would come off with that undershirt he wore several right, had the big black spot on it. Little superstitious there with its.

00:34:00
Speaker 4: Well, you know. When Jack was on a lot of callers asked about Malachi, you know, and what his future is. Is he going to be coming back to Kentucky? I mean, Ryan, I think Mark Pope has and penciled in and it's a big part of the team next year. And what was your percentage chance he said that he stayed.

00:34:14
Speaker 5: I went up to like about seventy or eighty because I think I've heard some things are going to happen. To try to ensure Malachi stays here. You have to keep him and the homegrown kid made a big jump from great Crossing to a freshman year at UK he'll make another big jump next year. I mean, he's a guy that come play in the NBA eventually. So I think you got to make all every move you can to keep him here, don't you think? Yeah?

00:34:34
Speaker 4: I think so. And if you're somebody that is going to plan on staying here for a while, I'd advise them to use Stockton Mortgage.

00:34:39
Speaker 5: Oh, Stockton Mortgage, what a great transition, you know. Now, let's just say you're a young guy and about to get married, starting a new journey in your life. Next step might be let's go buy a house. So I know the perfect person you can talk to. I'm just saying you, I mean you in general. If you're that person's maybe getting married and you're looking to buy a house, Stockton Marge can help you every step of the way. You get paired up with a loan officer, and it can be a hassle, and it's kind of it's kind of hard on a first time home buyer because you got to you know, you got to put in bank statements and four one case statements and paystubs, and there's a lot of lot tax returns. But Stocking Mortgage makes it as easy as possible hold your hand through the process. So if you're like Billy, Marissa or any other married couple about to get married, talk to Stocktor Mortgage to get that pre approval before we go looking at the houses. I looked at the houses yesterday. So it's a spring buying season, is here, ladies, gentlemen, Stockton Mortgage, Oh nmls say two five nine equalsing lender that ooh was.

00:35:31
Speaker 4: Ryan looking at a picture of himself in a blazer with sunglasses on?

00:35:35
Speaker 5: Party end it up.

00:35:36
Speaker 4: At Drew's wedding.

00:35:37
Speaker 5: Yeah, that was That was a fun time, Drew. I appreciate those uh Cranberry double vod because your bartender was given out.

00:35:42
Speaker 6: I found the photo album. I might just sure a few throughout the morning.

00:35:44
Speaker 4: Oh, there's a lot of you please do and Mario knows that you know sunglasses inside. It's never a good thing, is it? Oh for me? Okay, you're the one that missed the red carpet that first night too.

00:35:55
Speaker 6: I was there.

00:35:56
Speaker 4: That was hard three trying to find her a way through the draftings party. It's a good time to take a break, not only a good time to buy, it's a good time to take a break. We'll be right back here on Kentucky Sports Radio. Welcome back Kentucky Sports Radio. On a Wednesday. It's Billy Rutlis filling in for Matt Jones, Ryan Lemon, Drew Franklin, Shannon the Dude alongside. There's a Ryan Lemon. Sheea, pet I just retweeted at Billy or sports, how awesome is that a little generous look at that with the hair, But would love to see that come to fruition. Before we get back to the phones, I wanted to mention Dan Hurley's parents. Have we seen the video of the mom and oh yes, in the stands. I mean, there's so many great videos that came from that finish, but the zoom in of Dan Hurley's mom and what she said immediately after that shot win and it is probably my favorite moment from that that shot Drew sweet little mom.

00:36:45
Speaker 6: Saying some words we can't say on radio. Uh. There's a version great camera work where someone without you know, cutting it's they zoom in on Carlos Boozer as the steel happens, his son throwing the creating the turnover, and then somehow they panned to Mamma Hurley immediately for her reaction to the shot going in and just the contrast of Boozer seeing what's unfolding and how it's going south quickly, and then mom losing her mind and throwing f bombs around. That was another one of those wild angles we got to take in and enjoying that game and how it went down.

00:37:17
Speaker 4: Brian, did that make you think it all about maybe Josiah or being a sports dad?

00:37:22
Speaker 5: Oh, there's no doubt. But yeah, Mama Hurley has a little potty mouth. But I think as apparent, you get more nervous sometimes than your kids that are playing so when they lose like that. But yeah, she uh, she even made me blush a little bit.

00:37:35
Speaker 6: Yeah, she's just so. She's just a little small grandma.

00:37:41
Speaker 5: She's sweet little grandma, and she's got a little potty mouth.

00:37:44
Speaker 7: Yeah.

00:37:44
Speaker 6: I didn't say it, it's very clear what she said.

00:37:47
Speaker 4: Are you ready for that phase of your life? Drew?

00:37:49
Speaker 6: Maybe yelling F bombs at games? No, I probably won't be doing that.

00:37:51
Speaker 4: Yeah, like when the softball games, really when they it becomes coach pitch, right, like you take it off the tee and like mister balls and strikes matter, Ryan, Like maybe that's when the emotions can run a little high and our guy Drew will maybe be one of these sports parents.

00:38:04
Speaker 5: I think back to those days. Parents, I mean, we really are insane. We act like a seven and eight year old coach pitch. Baseball game is like the seventh game in the World Series and it's seven and eight year olds playing baseball. Now that I'm older, I look.

00:38:16
Speaker 6: Back like we were.

00:38:17
Speaker 5: We were We acted little idiots. Back to like idiots back then. You're living and dying with a play in the third inning of a game in the middle of the summer, when it's seven and eight year old's playing baseball, and.

00:38:29
Speaker 4: It's like a fourteen year old behind the plate too, right, he's just getting enough money to go to concession stage.

00:38:33
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's getting twenty five dollars to call they'll call that game, or center yelling at him.

00:38:38
Speaker 6: I didn't have one of those parents. They're very supportive it at every game. They kept their cool. But I grew up with many kids who did. With that parent in the crowd. We all knew them well a few ejections in our fifth grade basketball league, and it was usually the same such.

00:38:51
Speaker 5: The same guy, yeah, yeah, okay, Well were you ever that were?

00:38:56
Speaker 6: I know your supporting, you're yelling, But were you ever the one that was like, all right, he's time to get Ryan out of here.

00:39:01
Speaker 4: Yeah, shirt off.

00:39:01
Speaker 5: I thought this was America when I was coaching. Yes, I got kicked out of a game. I think I told that story one time. I kicked out of a seven and eight year old coach pitch baseball game for arguing with the umpire. He said, don't say another word, and I said, don't tag him, You're out.

00:39:16
Speaker 6: He warned me, too bad. You know, we see people losing their cool all the time here lately. It's pretty embarrassing. Just you didn't do anything that extreme.

00:39:23
Speaker 5: No, but he warned me, don't say one more word. Of course I did.

00:39:27
Speaker 4: Now, I can't condone it for the parents, but I do miss baseball managers when they would come out Shannon and like kick dirt on the plate. Oh yeah, I like loop Panela.

00:39:34
Speaker 5: Would go out.

00:39:35
Speaker 2: We were gonna get one of those last night.

00:39:37
Speaker 3: I don't know if you watched the Reds Pirates game, but you don't see like a manager get ejected in baseball now because of all the reviews and everything. But there was a check swing where the Reds player swung any more than what he did, he probably would have hit a home run. They called it not a swing, and the Pirates managers went out there and lost his mind. But that's yeah, that's something I always loved about watching Braves game, was Bobby Cox. Yeah, it's the record for the manager who's been throwing out the most out of any manager in Major League Baseball history. You really don't get those moments anymore because of the replays.

00:40:09
Speaker 4: You're right, you don't get the managers going out there picking the base up and like throwing it across the field.

00:40:15
Speaker 5: Right.

00:40:15
Speaker 3: The greatest one ever is the Braves like double a manager for oh years ago. Do you remember this one where he gets down and starts doing the army crawl up to the end, he gets the rosin bag and he throws it like a grenade.

00:40:26
Speaker 2: If somebody can find that, we can need to retweet that one.

00:40:29
Speaker 5: That was one of the greatest meltdowns ever too. Happened here in Lexington. It was an opposing manager. The guy that threw the base picked the base up and through the base and covered up the home plate with dirt. That was in Lexington.

00:40:39
Speaker 6: Yeah, the Braves manager's Philip Wellman was his name. That's the all timer boy in the Army crawl bites, he bites off the bag just launches it legendary. Did you all see the It's escaping me the Empire's name because I don't keep up with that closely, But it was at the Reds game, and they just kept challenging him.

00:40:59
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, kept being all huh.

00:41:01
Speaker 6: It was like the loudest the crowd got all night. Back to back challenges he got wrong. I think you went ozer for seven.

00:41:06
Speaker 4: Well, the ABI system can really embarrass some of these these umpires now right, Like I think one of them was a strike right down the middle and they had to challenge it and you have to wait that minute and like just see it basted in all its glories.

00:41:18
Speaker 5: But Drew's like every challenge they made it was against him. He was he was like oh for seven and these calls.

00:41:24
Speaker 6: And the crowd was going crazy each time, more so than it'd be a home run. I mean that was like the biggest parts of the night.

00:41:30
Speaker 4: Well in a while it'll be all robot umps. But well we still got the the humans back there for now. Eight five nine two eight h two two eight seven Unfortunately, the heartbreak's coming up, so we will take most of these calls on the other side of the break. Right, you know, we're going to the moon today, Ryan, going around the moon, right, going around like ten guys getting in a vehicle and they're going to drive around the moon. Well yeah, vehicle as in rocket ship. But yeah, it will be launching today. I want to talk a little bit about that on the other side of the break. And uh, you know, I'm having a good time with you guy, So we're.
