Speaker 1: Welcome everybody.
Speaker 2: It is the KSR pre Show Friday, May sixteenth. I'm
Speaker 2: Shannon the Dude being joined by Billy Relige, and you
Speaker 2: can give us a call on the Clark's Pumping Shot
Speaker 2: phone line eight five to nine two eight oh twenty
Speaker 2: two eighty seven be our whiskey Thief call of the day.
Speaker 2: You can also send us a text at five zo
Speaker 2: two two sixty five six sixty five six. And the
Speaker 2: ksrpre Show is always being brought to you by Italics
Speaker 2: Fine Italian Dining in Lexington, Billy. When I came into
Speaker 2: the studio this morning, there was a half drink coke
Speaker 2: can that said share a coke with dude. So I'm
Speaker 2: not sure if that was like intentionally left there for
Speaker 2: me like they were whoever left it was leaving like
Speaker 2: the rest the other half of the coke for me,
Speaker 2: or if they just didn't pick up after themselves. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna guess it's probably they just didn't pick up after themselves,
Speaker 2: because that's usually the way it goes around here.
Speaker 1: But I couldn't help but notice that, and I didn't drink.
Speaker 2: I didn't take a drink out of it, because you know,
Speaker 2: you don't drink after other people.
Speaker 3: Bill Well, I like to think Dwight Whitten just had
Speaker 3: a coke and took a swig and then decided he
Speaker 3: wanted to share it with you.
Speaker 1: Dude.
Speaker 3: You know there was a time where coke put the
Speaker 3: names or put names on their bottle, and so if
Speaker 3: you they're doing that, you had to share.
Speaker 2: A coke, that's right, Yeah, Yeah, that's that's that's part
Speaker 2: of the same campaign that they're bringing batcha.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Kind of a smart thing though, right, because even if
Speaker 2: you don't want coke and it says share a coke
Speaker 2: with Billy, You're like, you feel like you've got to
Speaker 2: buy that coke because it has your name on it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, exactly. It's kind of like you go to
Speaker 3: the keychain store and you look for through all the
Speaker 3: keychains to see if your name is normal enough to
Speaker 3: be made into one. Did you have all those when
Speaker 3: you were a kid? I had one? Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: of course, but there weren't a ton of Williams. It
Speaker 3: was more Billies that I had to get. But I've
Speaker 3: never had a problem drinking after somebody. Shannon, you might
Speaker 3: find that a little gross or weird, but you know,
Speaker 3: I've never had an issue. I never had to waterfall
Speaker 3: a drink after somebody drank it. I would just say, hey,
Speaker 3: you know what, you're just sharing a coke. I'd like
Speaker 3: to have some.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I'm not drinking a coke after somebody, but like,
Speaker 2: you know, if it's if it's uh, let's say it's
Speaker 2: some silk velvet whiskey and somebody has like a you know,
Speaker 2: sip they've taken off of it, I might, you know,
Speaker 2: take a sip off of it because I'm going it's alcohol.
Speaker 1: It'll burn all the germs away.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's true or not, but that's
Speaker 2: how I rationalize it in my mind.
Speaker 3: Well, they say, you know, you can put a little
Speaker 3: whiskey or bourbon on a wound and killed the germs.
Speaker 3: I did have to have an intervention once, as I
Speaker 3: was a frequent double dipper. People apparently frown on double.
Speaker 2: No, you can't be that guy at the party. You know,
Speaker 2: you take a chip, you dip it in there, you
Speaker 2: take a bite off of it.
Speaker 3: I still got more shape.
Speaker 2: Know, you got to go off the other side that
Speaker 2: you haven't touched it or you haven't bitten.
Speaker 3: Off of You can't be that guyer name. I'm not anymore.
Speaker 3: I'm not anymore Shannon. I'm a I've grown up. But yeah,
Speaker 3: that was a thing that I've learned that you can't
Speaker 3: do too much or people are gonna get mad.
Speaker 2: Yesterday's KSR show, Billy felt it felt like an old
Speaker 2: school show for me. Matt was here in the studio,
Speaker 2: hit me made a rare appearance in Louisville. And you know,
Speaker 2: if you're a longtime listener, that's the way we used
Speaker 2: to always do the show, you know, nine times out
Speaker 2: of ten the back in the old days before ks
Speaker 2: BARR was a thing, Matt would be in the Lobal
Speaker 2: studio with me, and then Ryan and Drew would be
Speaker 2: in Lexington and that's how we would do the show
Speaker 2: every day. So having Matt in here kind of kind
Speaker 2: of felt like one of those one of those old school.
Speaker 1: Shows for us yesterday.
Speaker 2: But the interrupting the callers ends today, all right, So
Speaker 2: if you're calling in today, all I could say to
Speaker 2: you is good luck. You probably aren't gonna get a
Speaker 2: word in on the show, but well, yeah we'll let
Speaker 2: you talk here on the pre show though, eight five
Speaker 2: nine to eight twenty two eighty seven.
Speaker 3: It'll be a triumphant day of cutting off callers for Matt.
Speaker 3: I'm sure he's waited patiently. Did we get Bob and
Speaker 3: Jamestown in the first segment?
Speaker 2: The first segment, we never seched calls in the first segment,
Speaker 2: Matt took Bob and Jamestown and let him speak his
Speaker 2: peace during the first segment.
Speaker 3: You know, I didn't hear a ton of the show
Speaker 3: yesterday because I was running around like a chicken with
Speaker 3: its head cut off, trying to help with the technical difficulties.
Speaker 3: But about the one minute or thirty seconds I did
Speaker 3: hear of the show yesterday, was you singing the alphabet song? Yeah,
Speaker 3: the letter m the munch Munch munch letter m I'm
Speaker 3: glad Mom starts with him, or something like I'm glad.
Speaker 2: You caught that, because that was that was the highlight
Speaker 2: of the show as far as concern.
Speaker 1: Now, did you have the letter people here?
Speaker 2: Here's well, first of all, before I ask you about that,
Speaker 2: the reason all this thing, this conversation came up, was
Speaker 2: because Matt was talking about driving around in Louisville yesterday
Speaker 2: and there was like kindergarten graduations going on, and he's
Speaker 2: very anti kindergarten graduation, because his thing was, you haven't
Speaker 2: learned anything yet, you haven't accomplished anything. And my argument was, well, yeah,
Speaker 2: you have. You learned your colors in kindergarten. You also
Speaker 2: learned your letters because of the letter people. And I
Speaker 2: mentioned the letter people on KSR and they all looked
Speaker 2: at me like I had three heads, like what are
Speaker 2: you talking about?
Speaker 1: And you know, Matt's a.
Speaker 2: Little bit older than me, Drew's a little bit younger
Speaker 2: than me, Ryan's a lot older than me. So I
Speaker 2: didn't expect Ran to know what the letter people were.
Speaker 2: But I was kind of surprised that Drew or Matt
Speaker 2: neither one of them knew what the letter people are.
Speaker 2: I thought everybody grew up with the letter people. Did
Speaker 2: you grow up with the letter people in kindergarten?
Speaker 3: Not, Shannon, And I had to Google to make sure
Speaker 3: that I that I knew what you were talking about
Speaker 3: or not. I do remember in kindergarten, like learning my
Speaker 3: letters in the letters having faces on them, but none
Speaker 3: of the letters had songs like that, Shannon. We would
Speaker 3: have a day where like the entire day, you know,
Speaker 3: the letter of the day would be M and so
Speaker 3: we'd work with things that you know, start with them,
Speaker 3: and that's how you learn. But I mean, it sounds
Speaker 3: like that's kind of where you got your your love
Speaker 3: of singing from. Was the Letter People?
Speaker 1: You No, I don't think that was it.
Speaker 3: I think it just transitioned from Letter People to Stone
Speaker 3: Temple Pilot.
Speaker 2: It is just weird, like how certain things you remember because.
Speaker 1: You could ask me.
Speaker 2: You could ask me something about that, you know, what
Speaker 2: did you do yesterday? And I might remember, you know,
Speaker 2: eighty percent of it, but there's another twenty percent that
Speaker 2: I've already forgotten about that happened yesterday.
Speaker 1: Yet I can.
Speaker 2: Remember the song from when I was six or seven
Speaker 2: years old, just like it's just there, like I can
Speaker 2: just recall it at any time. And I haven't thought
Speaker 2: about that in probably thirty years, but yesterday, bring up
Speaker 2: the Letter People and I've got that song that's that's
Speaker 2: in my head for my childhood.
Speaker 1: It's kind of crazy how your brain works.
Speaker 3: It is weird what we remember. And I tell you
Speaker 3: one thing that's present in my mind often, and that
Speaker 3: was my grade school graduation Shannon. Let me tell you
Speaker 3: how much it meant to be as a kid. It
Speaker 3: wasn't even like that, Shannon. Twice a year the school
Speaker 3: would honor us with an award ceremony for everybody that
Speaker 3: was on the principal's list or on the honorall So
Speaker 3: whether you made all a's or all a's and b's,
Speaker 3: and so they'd call your name, you'd walk up, you
Speaker 3: get a little certificate, and you'd sit down and to
Speaker 3: the you know, to the Matt Joneses of the world,
Speaker 3: that maybe we need to do less of that. And
Speaker 3: that's just for the parents. But let me tell your
Speaker 3: fourth grade billy going up there to get his principals
Speaker 3: lists certificate. We'll always remember that and looking into the
Speaker 3: crowd and finding my parents. Man, it was a special moment.
Speaker 3: It was so don't I'm gonna I'm gonna say a
Speaker 3: cow quote here. You're not gonna steal my joint, Matt.
Speaker 3: These events are not for you. They are for are
Speaker 3: the parents and for the kid. You are not going
Speaker 3: to steal our joy in poo poo. The grade school
Speaker 3: graduations now preschool, yeah, I mean you're just breathing in
Speaker 3: and just picking boogers out of your nose, right like
Speaker 3: that's more of daycare.
Speaker 1: Yep, But what are you doing in kindergarten.
Speaker 3: Well, like kindergarten in grade school, you're starting to figure
Speaker 3: things out. You've got to have some social skills so
Speaker 3: you don't get kicked out of the school. So I
Speaker 3: think you are starting to learn a little bit.
Speaker 1: I was just giving Matt the other argument.
Speaker 2: I don't necessarily disagree with Matt that kindergarten graduation is ridiculous.
Speaker 1: I mean, I kind of agree with them.
Speaker 2: I was just trying to present the Devil's advocate, you know,
Speaker 2: side of things when I was talking about the letter
Speaker 2: people and you know, learning your colors. So let me
Speaker 2: ask you this, billy, what do you think is the
Speaker 2: earliest grade we should have a graduation for? I think
Speaker 2: I think we may have had like an eighth grade graduation.
Speaker 2: I think we did, But I never had like a
Speaker 2: preschool I never went to preschool to begin with. I
Speaker 2: never had a kindergarten graduation or a fifth grade graduation.
Speaker 2: I think I did have eighth grade. What do you
Speaker 2: think is the earliest we should have graduations?
Speaker 3: I think like third, fourth, fifth grade is a good
Speaker 3: time where recognizing achievements means a lot to the kids
Speaker 3: I do. I mean, kindergarten may be a little young.
Speaker 3: And then people were posting pictures of their kids in
Speaker 3: their graduation ceremonies and they've got you know, they're five
Speaker 3: years old. They got robes on, Shannon. Like, that's a
Speaker 3: little much. I get that.
Speaker 1: But the diploma's in their hands, the diploma.
Speaker 3: And they're like on the steps of a big building
Speaker 3: like they've gone out of their.
Speaker 1: Way to do it. They got a diploma in their hand.
Speaker 1: They can't even read it.
Speaker 3: Listen, you know, I'm pulling out the cell phone during
Speaker 3: stressful situations. That's just the new generation of parents, right.
Speaker 3: They want to get the photo ops. They want to
Speaker 3: have these memories and they'll thank themselves fifty years from
Speaker 3: now when they do have these memories. But yeah, I'm
Speaker 3: thinking like third or fourth grade. I think third grade
Speaker 3: is when they started doing multiplication table Shannon. And if
Speaker 3: you can multiplication tables, I think you do deserve a
Speaker 3: little credit.
Speaker 2: Come on, though, just because you know you're well, I mean,
Speaker 2: I know Ryan's still working on his eightes, but you
Speaker 2: really think that because you can multiply, that you deserve
Speaker 2: to get a capping gown. See my answer would be probably,
Speaker 2: I mean, really, in all honesty, probably high school, because
Speaker 2: that feels like you've accomplished middle school.
Speaker 3: You're not gonna do a little old more ceremony. Like
Speaker 3: does anybody not make it to high school? Sure? Sure, yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm sure there's some dropouts even before.
Speaker 2: I mean, I know, my grandparents back in the nineteen
Speaker 2: thirties only went to eighth grade, you know, and back
Speaker 2: then it was a big deal to get a you know,
Speaker 2: to go to high school. My thing is like, yeah,
Speaker 2: you deserve a diploma for graduating high school, but do
Speaker 2: you really deserve a diploma for getting by the eighth grade?
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think even our middle school
Speaker 1: graduation was kind of, you know, ridiculous.
Speaker 3: A lot of dumb kids out there shaming. It's a
Speaker 3: good grade. It is an accomplishment for that.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, if I'm getting a diploma, it's like, okay,
Speaker 2: this is where you peak out.
Speaker 3: Okay, and at eighth grade, that's it, that's where you're
Speaker 3: going to peak.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean you get a diploma, right, and then
Speaker 2: you know, there's a few people that get to be
Speaker 2: lucky enough to go to college, right, Like I was
Speaker 2: the first person I think in my family that graduated college,
Speaker 2: and that was a big deal. But you know, getting
Speaker 2: I thought, like getting to high school isn't that big
Speaker 2: of a deal. Like if if you accomplished getting by
Speaker 2: the eighth grade, I don't think it's that big of
Speaker 2: a deal that you need to go through a ceremony
Speaker 2: and get a diploma because you made it to freshman
Speaker 2: year of high school.
Speaker 3: I was doing ceremonies in second grade, and I did
Speaker 3: appreciate it. But like you know, a lot of times
Speaker 3: you graduate fifth and you go to a new school.
Speaker 3: Right you graduate eighth and then you go to a
Speaker 3: new school. It's not like that everywhere, but you know,
Speaker 3: and they want to recognize your achievements for the years
Speaker 3: that you've been there.
Speaker 1: So I don't know.
Speaker 3: It was a good sports radio topic. Matt comes in
Speaker 3: hot with his hatred of kids, and you know me, Shannon,
Speaker 3: I'm not I don't fall far from that tree, but
Speaker 3: I do remember my freaking second second grade graduation. So
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to be on the other side here.
Speaker 2: Okay, So I want to transition to this. I don't
Speaker 2: really know how to make the transition. But Bill Belichick
Speaker 2: was on Good Morning American Morning graduating. There you go,
Speaker 2: that's the transition speaking of kids that just graduated high school,
Speaker 2: Jordan Hudson and her boy toy.
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick. He was on Good Morning America this morning.
Speaker 3: That's right, it's today.
Speaker 2: If you watch it, I did. It was about ten
Speaker 2: minutes long. The interview with Michael Strahan tell me, well,
Speaker 2: it was kind of honestly boring until like the last
Speaker 2: probably forty five seconds. He finally gets in, Like in
Speaker 2: the last minute of the interview, he finally kind of
Speaker 2: tries to tread lightly and ask about his personal life,
Speaker 2: and there was sort of an awkward moment. I feel like,
Speaker 2: and I don't know if this is going to translate
Speaker 2: on the air on the radio or not.
Speaker 3: But you can watch you've got audio oka.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but here it is.
Speaker 2: I want to play this for you, so so mute
Speaker 2: your your teams on the Yeah, you could do it, Okay,
Speaker 2: So here it is. This is Bill Belichick being asked
Speaker 2: about Jordan Hudson on Good Morning America This morning.
Speaker 1: Oh it's there. So what did Jordan mean to you?
Speaker 4: Well, we have good personal relationship. And you know I'm
Speaker 4: not talking about personal relationships, Michael.
Speaker 3: You know that, Okay, I know that could well I'm
Speaker 3: saying Are you happy?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Can you look happy?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I never thought I thought i'd seen you doing yoga.
Speaker 2: Only only happy people do yoga. It was sort of
Speaker 2: a I feel like Bill's face kind of turned red
Speaker 2: a little bit when he started getting asked about Jordan Hudson. This,
Speaker 2: this whole story fascinates me. But it wasn't that. It
Speaker 2: wasn't nearly as good as well I thought it was
Speaker 2: going to be, because mostly it was about his book
Speaker 2: and his coaching career. Nobody cares too much for that
Speaker 2: interview too exactly. And she wasn't there, which is probably
Speaker 2: a good choice for all parties.
Speaker 3: In she wasn't off screen, and she was not there
Speaker 3: this morning. Now, you know, that photo is incredible, that
Speaker 3: yoga photo on the beach. I think there is part
Speaker 3: of me that believes Bill Belichick never knew that that
Speaker 3: photo was posted and circulated online the way that it did,
Speaker 3: going megaviral, right, But there is no way that he
Speaker 3: doesn't know about the you know, the storm that this
Speaker 3: story has become at this point, right, I mean, you
Speaker 3: have to. He's one of the greatest coaches of all time.
Speaker 3: He has to have the awareness that this story is
Speaker 3: not good for his legacy, you know, for North Carolina,
Speaker 3: for everything that he's got going on right now. So
Speaker 3: we're in damage control right now. And in the final
Speaker 3: parts of that interview, when he's finally asked about Jordan Hudson,
Speaker 3: I'm sure he did his face did get a little
Speaker 3: red and got a little embarrassed that he had to
Speaker 3: talk about it even more. I'm sure there's a lot
Speaker 3: of love between him and Jordan, but I've seen reports
Speaker 3: that she was around the Patriots facility for a couple
Speaker 3: of years Shannon when he was still there. I mean,
Speaker 3: this is this is somebody that he possibly met at
Speaker 3: nineteen years old, which is legal on an airplane. But
Speaker 3: I can understand why they don't want to talk about that.
Speaker 3: It's just been a lightning rod of a story for
Speaker 3: people like us, right because everybody seems to have an
Speaker 3: opinion on it. And it sounds like his former teammate
Speaker 3: Michael Strahan was throwing softballs too.
Speaker 2: He was trying to like trying to tread lightly, trying
Speaker 2: to bring it up, but he knew that it was
Speaker 2: going to be like a sensitive subject. Soon as he
Speaker 2: started talking about her. Bill Belichick kind of shut down.
Speaker 2: He's very like yep, yes, and then the line, only
Speaker 2: happy people do yoga, Coach, have.
Speaker 3: You ever done that on the on the beach done
Speaker 3: a couple of yoga with the significant other?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I haven't either.
Speaker 1: I have not done that.
Speaker 2: I'm still on my body app that I'm working out
Speaker 2: on every day, which working which, by the way, last night, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I've challenged you to come work out with me and
Speaker 2: do one of these which, by the way, I finished
Speaker 2: last night the Lift More program eight weeks. I'm finished
Speaker 2: with it now. But I'm telling you I feel great,
Speaker 2: feeling great. But I'm telling you, uh, this guy that
Speaker 2: leads these these workouts, like the guy that's you know,
Speaker 2: come on, you got it all right?
Speaker 1: Four more?
Speaker 2: I'm telling you my conspiracy theory is this guy is
Speaker 2: not lifting nearly as many pounds of weight that he
Speaker 2: that he puts on.
Speaker 1: I do not believe this.
Speaker 3: Oh you think he's got fake weights?
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm saying this guy had he's working out with
Speaker 2: foam weights. Because we're doing the I'm doing these workouts,
Speaker 2: and he's doing the workouts and he's lifting more weight
Speaker 2: than I am, and he's over here talking through the
Speaker 2: entire workout.
Speaker 1: He's not out of breath or anything.
Speaker 2: And I'm over here, Billy, for my life, just trying
Speaker 2: not to have a heart attack, Like, don't, don't even
Speaker 2: try to talk to me, because I can't even get
Speaker 2: a word out. This guy's over here doing more weight
Speaker 2: than I am the same exercise and is talking through
Speaker 2: the entire thing. And my conspiracy theory is he's got
Speaker 2: foam weights. There's no way I'm not buying that this
Speaker 2: guy is in that much better shape than me. So
Speaker 2: is there any is there any chance, Billy, that we're
Speaker 2: being fooled by these people that we, you know, work
Speaker 2: out with on these apps, because I don't I don't
Speaker 2: believe this guy can lift that many weights, that heavy
Speaker 2: of weight and be able to talk through the whole thing.
Speaker 3: That's interesting. I've seen some of these fake weights where
Speaker 3: it looks exactly like a real one and it can
Speaker 3: be fake. But you know, I don't want to call
Speaker 3: this guy's integrity And I mean, well, now you're calling
Speaker 3: out I.
Speaker 2: Hate this guy, Joel Freeman. He talks through the whole thing.
Speaker 2: He makes these corny jokes, and I'm like, I'm not
Speaker 2: in your I'm not in the mood for your jokes, Joel.
Speaker 2: I just I just want to work out and get
Speaker 2: into shape. And here's the good thing about this workout, Billy.
Speaker 2: You do it, of two things will happen. Either you
Speaker 2: get in the best shape of your life or you'll
Speaker 2: dropped out of a heart attack. And I'm nearly had
Speaker 2: seven heart attacks in this workout, but I got through it.
Speaker 3: But it feels like a little like a peloton class,
Speaker 3: or you've got an instructor and you've got to follow along.
Speaker 3: But Shannon, I'd love to join you for one of
Speaker 3: these workouts. That's that's uh, that's not smoking mirrors. I'd
Speaker 3: love to join you for that.
Speaker 1: I would love to see if you can get through
Speaker 1: one of these.
Speaker 3: Well I can. The problem is is that, like I
Speaker 3: like to sit on my phone after Oh see, that's me.
Speaker 3: That was that was always my problem with working out.
Speaker 2: You go to the gym, you you bust out a
Speaker 2: few reps, you look at your phone, your buddy walks by,
Speaker 2: you start talking to them.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 2: Ye. Next thing you know, ten minutes has gone by
Speaker 2: and you're like, oh, yeah, I need to work out
Speaker 2: some more.
Speaker 1: This thing. You're in and out in forty minutes, like.
Speaker 3: I've done an hour workout and maybe like twenty five
Speaker 3: minutes of actual work and yeah, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: So and this guy doesn't give you, like any time
Speaker 2: to breathe, Like there's no like you're busting out twelve
Speaker 2: reps and he's like, all right, let's go to the
Speaker 2: next one.
Speaker 1: Like wait a.
Speaker 3: Minute, Like do I don't like that? I need to
Speaker 3: pause it? You can, but I feel like that's kind
Speaker 3: of cheating sometimes I have to though.
Speaker 1: I'm like, got enough of this guy.
Speaker 3: Already cheating with the fake weights, so you might as
Speaker 3: well cheat back a little bit. But glad to hear
Speaker 3: that you're you're through the program? Has it helped it all?
Speaker 3: At OVW? Can you feel it a little bit?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I can.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I train once a week at OVW,
Speaker 2: but I can, you know, throw around a little bit
Speaker 2: more weight than I used to. The main thing is
Speaker 2: just feeling better. You get to a certain age, you
Speaker 2: got to do it just for your own health, just
Speaker 2: so you feel better. You get out of bed every day.
Speaker 2: So okay, old man, Yeah, but anytime you want to
Speaker 2: come and join me, the invitation's always there. Eight five
Speaker 2: nine twenty two eighty seven We're going to take a break.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back, and we got to talk Kentucky
Speaker 2: baseball last night. Man, what a brutal way to lose
Speaker 2: one against Bandy. We'll talk about that to lead off
Speaker 2: the next segment coming up. Right, we are back. It
Speaker 2: is the KSR pre show. Well Third Out Blind right there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it feels like I'm in the nineties.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 2: It was fun over it was fun opening up for them,
Speaker 2: but I didn't get to actually meet them, which I
Speaker 2: thought was kind of a little downer. They're gonna be
Speaker 2: playing Bourbon and Beyond Fest though, coming up in Louisville,
Speaker 2: so be able get to meet them them.
Speaker 3: I was there. I left two songs in after Third
Speaker 3: Eye Blind started. I was there to see Shannon the
Speaker 3: Dude and Alice Lougan.
Speaker 2: I appreciate that, all right, So Kentucky last night, Man,
Speaker 2: what a way to lose the Yeah, they were up
Speaker 2: the entire game looked like they had the game under
Speaker 2: control against number nine ranked Vanderbilt. They're up seven to five.
Speaker 2: Bottom of the ninth, two strikes, two outs, two on,
Speaker 2: and the Vandy player hits a three run homer to
Speaker 2: walk it off and Bandy wins eight to seven. That's yeah,
Speaker 2: that's one of the more brutal losses I've seen in
Speaker 2: a long long time. But they got one more or
Speaker 2: actually two more next games tonight. I don't know if
Speaker 2: they're going to try to move that up or I
Speaker 2: know we got some bad weather coming in, so there's
Speaker 2: a chance they may try to move that game up today,
Speaker 2: but I think it's right now. Schedule for seven o'clock
Speaker 2: tonight for Game two.
Speaker 3: Caught the beginning of the game. I mean Kentucky scored
Speaker 3: three or four runs before they even had an out.
Speaker 3: I mean they was five to zero in the end
Speaker 3: of the first setting, and these guys were making a statement.
Speaker 3: I mean, Vandy's a team number nine in the country,
Speaker 3: who if they were to win all three games versus Kentucky,
Speaker 3: would put themselves in the conversation to host a regional
Speaker 3: So I mean they are they've got something to play for,
Speaker 3: just as Kentucky does. But heartbreaking. And we've seen this
Speaker 3: a couple times this year, right, We've seen some true
Speaker 3: gut punch losses for the Kentucky baseball team this year.
Speaker 3: You know, they really need probably one more win to
Speaker 3: feel confident about making that NCAA tournament pool. They'll have
Speaker 3: the SEC tournament in Hoover next week. But I actually
Speaker 3: posted a video this morning from that game at Billy
Speaker 3: R Sports where Ryan Schwartz got hit in the temple
Speaker 3: last night.
Speaker 1: Did you happen to see that part?
Speaker 2: I saw it and he just shrugged it off like
Speaker 2: no big deal, just took his base.
Speaker 3: Unbelievable. I mean, he just spun around and then looked
Speaker 3: at the guy on the mound. Thank god, like that
Speaker 3: wasn't a couple of inches over or like hit him
Speaker 3: directly on the face. That could have been a messy scene.
Speaker 3: But he got hit and then just looked and stared
Speaker 3: right through the pitcher.
Speaker 2: That was a pretty badass moment. Was you hit me
Speaker 2: in the temple? I'm calling for the trainer, possibly an
Speaker 2: ambulance if you hit me in the temple with a
Speaker 2: ninety six mile an hour fastball. He takes one right
Speaker 2: there and just like what that's supposed to hurt?
Speaker 1: What you're gonna do?
Speaker 3: You're gonna have to call Joel to get me up
Speaker 3: off the ground after that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you're right, though, I mean, well, I
Speaker 2: think Kentucky is in as of right now. I think
Speaker 2: even if they were to get swept and lose the
Speaker 2: next two games they're in, but you're right to be
Speaker 2: to feel comfortable about it. I think you need one
Speaker 2: more so maybe they can. Hopefully they can get that
Speaker 2: later on today.
Speaker 3: But hopefully these close games, I mean they help them
Speaker 3: in the postseason this year. I mean, they're gonna be
Speaker 3: no stranger to the pressures of winter go home and
Speaker 3: so you know, they they've got some good starters, but
Speaker 3: you know, the bullpen's got to improve. Tyler Bell has
Speaker 3: just been magnificent this year. So when he came up
Speaker 3: with the bases loaded and won out and grounded into
Speaker 3: a double play, you can't fault the guy too much
Speaker 3: for it. But you know, I've got confidence in Minjion Man.
Speaker 3: You remember his back was against the wall, he was
Speaker 3: on the hot seat, and then he I think they're
Speaker 3: about to make their third straight in tournament. So you know,
Speaker 3: best of luck for this team moving forward, and another
Speaker 3: big two big games left versus Andanerd.
Speaker 2: I'll be watching those two. Will you be watching any
Speaker 2: of the Preakness on Saturday? No?
Speaker 3: I mean yeah, because I'm trying to get into horse racing,
Speaker 3: Shannon and be that guy but like, because the derby
Speaker 3: winner is not racing, what interest do I have it
Speaker 3: to the casual horse race?

Speaker 2: All you can do is laugh about it. Eight five, nine,
Speaker 2: two eighth, twenty two eighty seven. At Shannon the Dude
Speaker 2: at Billy r Sports on Twitter, David Wright sen It
Speaker 2: says it's funny that Shannon and Matt we were not parents.
Speaker 2: The way they fill about graduations, you'd probably have a
Speaker 2: different opinion if you had kids of your own, life
Speaker 2: is different as a parent. Look, there's no doubt. I
Speaker 2: do not doubt that life is different as a parent.
Speaker 2: But do I think that we should celebrate every time
Speaker 2: they graduate or move on from one grade to another.
Speaker 1: Should we have a graduation for it?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to do that.
Speaker 2: Billy, if you had a kid, would you want to
Speaker 2: go to your kids kindergarten graduation?
Speaker 3: If it's my own kid, yes, If you're dragging me
Speaker 3: to somebody else's kids graduation, no, I mean I'm gonna
Speaker 3: try to get out of there as quickly as possible.
Speaker 2: See, I'm gonna explain to my kid, Look, you got
Speaker 2: their graduation. That's great, but you didn't accomplish anything.
Speaker 1: WHOA, that's what you're.
Speaker 3: Gonna tell your kids.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say, Look, you've got a long road ahead
Speaker 2: of you. You've got a bright future. We're gonna opt
Speaker 2: out of the kindergarten graduation, all right. My kid's gonna
Speaker 2: be a badass. It's gonna opt out of the kindergarten graduation.
Speaker 1: It's gonna go.
Speaker 3: I don't need this, all right, we don't have time
Speaker 3: for graduations. Get back in the pumpkin field, little dude.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna teach us something. Teach us in real
Speaker 2: life lessons instead of kindergarten graduation. Corey, he writes in
Speaker 2: before we get to you. Uh, he said, I had
Speaker 2: a fifth and eighth grade graduation that they played I
Speaker 2: Believe I Can Fly by R. Kelly at my fifth
Speaker 2: grade graduation. That didn't age. Well, No, it did not, Corey,
Speaker 2: it did not at all.
Speaker 3: What a great song. That was great for momentous occasions
Speaker 3: like graduations. There's still or eat from listeners. On the
Speaker 3: text line five O two two six five six six
Speaker 3: five six, one person says the wrestler who throws fake
Speaker 3: punches is getting awfully triggered by a guy using fake weights.
Speaker 2: Wow, okay, fake punches. No, those punches are real. You
Speaker 2: step in the ring. I mean you're gonna get hit
Speaker 2: in the phase. I don't know how to throw a
Speaker 2: fake punch, So when I'm throwing a punch into the
Speaker 2: wrestling ring, you're getting potatoed.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. The chair wasn't fake when you
Speaker 3: get that out in underneath the ring.
Speaker 1: Top of the that there are the punches.
Speaker 3: By the way, the punches are a little held back.
Speaker 1: Let's say, what's this okay.
Speaker 2: Another person says, any graduation before high school is unnecessary.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. Before high school, it's unnecessary. So
Speaker 3: we can't celebrate accomplishments until we're eighteen.
Speaker 1: Oh no.
Speaker 2: This person goes on to say, all these people who
Speaker 2: have graduations before that grow up soft like Billy.
Speaker 3: Oh stop, I didn't know I was getting called out.
Speaker 2: In the same text, those unnecessary graduations have created a
Speaker 2: weak generation of Americans.
Speaker 3: That's from an anonymous generation Americans. Anonymous. Yes, yeah, good thing.
Speaker 3: You didn't put your name on it, anonymous. There's the
Speaker 3: tea break. There's the text right there, regeneration like Billy,
Speaker 3: give me a break, eight five, nine, twenty two eighty seven.
Speaker 3: Let's go to the phones.
Speaker 1: Let's talk to Robert. What's up, Robert? How are you?
Speaker 5: Hey? Guys? As far as the baseball team goes, I
Speaker 5: don't I don't think there's anything to worry about. I
Speaker 5: think they're in THEANCYC this year. You've got ten teams
Speaker 5: that played Missouri and you got five that didn't. So
Speaker 5: when you take those Missouri wins that everybody's got out,
Speaker 5: the Cats record looks a lot better. Uh, those three
Speaker 5: wins except for Texas A and M that they got
Speaker 5: it are just you know, it really bounces out everything
Speaker 5: if you take out the Missouri wins the right guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you read the the Joe Lonardies of baseball
Speaker 2: out there, from everything that I've read, bracketology, yeah, they
Speaker 2: have bracketology for everything now. But from everything that I've read,
Speaker 2: they are in as of right now, projected to be in.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean it would be good to grab
Speaker 2: one against the number nine team in the country. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so if they you know, last night gave me a
Speaker 2: little bit of hope, even though Vandy was throwing a
Speaker 2: guy that they hadn't started all year a freshman.
Speaker 1: But we'll see what happens later.
Speaker 5: I couldn't Okay, see you guys, Yep, thanks.
Speaker 1: For the call, Robert.
Speaker 3: Thanks. Yeah, it's unbelievable. They may make the NCAA tournament
Speaker 3: and be below five hundred and SEC play just kind
Speaker 3: of goes to show you how good that conference is.
Speaker 2: We've been talking a lot about baseball this week with
Speaker 2: the Pete Rose stuff with Kentucky baseball, and I wanted
Speaker 2: to talk about this on Monday. We just ran out
Speaker 2: of time, and we've had a form of this conversation before, Billy.
Speaker 2: But I was watching a game the other day, Major
Speaker 2: League Baseball, and I was thinking, you know, my like
Speaker 2: knowledge of a lot of Major League Baseball only goes
Speaker 2: back to like my childhood, so you know, nineteen ninety
Speaker 2: two forward. And I started thinking about, like all these
Speaker 2: old baseball players that have you know, long since passed on,
Speaker 2: like Babe Ruth, these guys that hold all these records.
Speaker 6: Jack.
Speaker 2: I started thinking, like, you know, the game of baseball
Speaker 2: has evolved a lot over the years, But how fast
Speaker 2: were pitchers throwing back in Babe Ruth's day? And I
Speaker 2: looked it up, and on average they were throwing eighty five,
Speaker 2: which is a big difference from today. By the way,
Speaker 2: the average pitch today in Major League Baseball is ninety
Speaker 2: five miles an hour.
Speaker 3: You know, ninety five is the average average?
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, And you know pitchers, of course, have you know,
Speaker 2: better breaking balls and just just better pitchers overall in general.
Speaker 2: But it got me to thinking, could Babe Ruth be
Speaker 2: a good player in today's game?
Speaker 1: Like if you took Babe Ruth and you gave.
Speaker 2: Them access to all the things that Major League Baseball
Speaker 2: players have today?
Speaker 1: Would he still be a Hall of Famer?
Speaker 2: And I read an article that was sort of debating
Speaker 2: why he wouldn't be good. I sort of have the
Speaker 2: opposite opinion of that, Billy, But what's your opinion. Could
Speaker 2: a guy like Babe Ruth, Let's say you took him,
Speaker 2: you gave him access to everything that Major League baseball
Speaker 2: players have today, that includes nutrition.
Speaker 1: I know, like the big argument was, Babe Ruth was
Speaker 1: a fat guy.
Speaker 2: And did you know that, according to like the stories
Speaker 2: of Babe Ruth, he would sit in the dugout and
Speaker 2: drink a six pack of coke or soda in every game?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: I did not know that, Like, you wouldn't be doing
Speaker 2: that in today's game, right, everything's about health.
Speaker 1: Nutrition.
Speaker 2: But do you think that Babe Ruth, if he had
Speaker 2: access to all the things that the players have today, bats,
Speaker 2: the whole thing, do you think he could be a
Speaker 2: Hall of Famer today?
Speaker 3: Wow, that's an interesting question because your caveat of you know,
Speaker 3: the nutrition aspect of it, the like the modern facilities.
Speaker 3: Could he turn into somebody that could be a Hall
Speaker 3: of Fame er? Sure, but that doesn't guarantee success, right,
Speaker 3: I mean I think of a guy in a different sport,
Speaker 3: like Zion Williamson, who I mean, He's got all the
Speaker 3: facilities and the people telling him what to do, but
Speaker 3: he's still fat, Shannon, Like, he still can't get to
Speaker 3: a point where he can stay healthy and stay on
Speaker 3: the court. So it doesn't guarantee success, no, But you know, like,
Speaker 3: is the babe putting up the same numbers if Pedro
Speaker 3: Martinez is throwing a ninety two mile per hour slider
Speaker 3: in his face? Shannon, You know, I don't think so.
Speaker 3: I mean, the babe, the Great Bambuino, he played in
Speaker 3: a time where blacks didn't play, when Hispanics weren't playing.
Speaker 3: I mean, it was a completely different time. So I
Speaker 3: think if you just dropped him in today's game, he'd
Speaker 3: be a lot worse than what we saw. But you
Speaker 3: know that's a little unfair to the babe, right, because
Speaker 3: everything evolves, and naturally you go back and watch a
Speaker 3: basketball game from the eighties, Shannon, You're like, it looks
Speaker 3: like a different sport. They're dribbling up here, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean, Like they wouldn't survive in today's age.
Speaker 3: So I don't think it's you know, it's only babe
Speaker 3: that would struggle if he were in the modern age.
Speaker 3: But could he become somebody that that it had some discipline,
Speaker 3: didn't smoke cigars, didn't drink cokes in the dugout. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he could become into a Hall of Famer. But if
Speaker 3: you were to just say take him as he is,
Speaker 3: would he find success in the league today? And I
Speaker 3: would probably say no.
Speaker 1: Well, see, I would agree with you on that.
Speaker 2: Like if you took out of shape Babe Ruth from
Speaker 2: back then when there was not really a big emphasis
Speaker 2: on fitness and they weren't really paying attention to what
Speaker 2: they were putting in their body, then yeah.
Speaker 1: He would be too slow. He wouldn't be able to
Speaker 1: run the bases.
Speaker 2: You know, I don't think that Babe Ruth back then,
Speaker 2: you drop him in today's game would be very successful.
Speaker 2: But again, let's just assume that he's not going to
Speaker 2: be overweight, and then he still has the same hand
Speaker 2: eye coordination, Billy. I mean to me, that's what it
Speaker 2: comes down to. Do you have the hand eye coordination
Speaker 2: to hit a baseball? Babe Ruth clearly had that. So
Speaker 2: I think that even though pitches are a lot fatter,
Speaker 2: straw on average than they wore back then. I think
Speaker 2: that he would still have the raw talent to be
Speaker 2: able to succeed in the game today.
Speaker 3: Give him some new equipment, maybe a new torpedo bat.
Speaker 1: Yeah, bay Ruth is a torpedo bat.
Speaker 3: Come yeah. So you know there are some things that
Speaker 3: could translate through generations. Sure, and and for him to
Speaker 3: be considered one of the best baseball players of all time,
Speaker 3: he had to have.
Speaker 2: That talent, right, so naturally you think they could translate.
Speaker 2: And that was the biggest argument was that he was
Speaker 2: out of shape. Okay, we'll whip them into shape. You know,
Speaker 2: I don't think he's going to be on the team.
Speaker 2: You know, like there's a few exceptions, I guess over
Speaker 2: you know, the last thirty years, you know of guys
Speaker 2: that were just out of shape that were baseball mov on.
Speaker 2: Big dude, Big Poppy. Big Poppy was probably in better
Speaker 2: shape than what you thought.
Speaker 3: But he was a Mets pitcher. Bartolo Cologne a home
Speaker 3: run that was like a national story there for.
Speaker 1: A week after he did. David Wells out a beer belly.
Speaker 3: David Wells just hung over the day he threw his
Speaker 3: perfect game. You haven't seen that story.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, so so my consensus is, yes, Babe
Speaker 2: Ruth would still be a Hall of Famer if he
Speaker 2: had access to everything that players have access to today.
Speaker 3: I like to think if Elie de la Cruz went
Speaker 3: back to the nineteen thirties or twenty Shannon and what
Speaker 3: they think about him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would even be fair. But I'd be like.
Speaker 3: An alien coming down. And some of the things that
Speaker 3: he can do on a baseball diamond. I mean, he's
Speaker 3: got the records for like the fastest ball speed, you know,
Speaker 3: throwing from the outfield or from shortstops. So it's incredible
Speaker 3: what he's been able to do. And the Red still
Speaker 3: can't win.
Speaker 1: All right, So I'm looking forward to this next call.
Speaker 2: You know, yesterday, Billy, we had Tristan come on and
Speaker 2: give you a tarot card reading.
Speaker 1: And Tristan's back again.
Speaker 2: Today he's back and he's I think he's got another
Speaker 2: tarot card that he's gonna flip over.
Speaker 3: Is this going to be for me today, Tristan? Is
Speaker 3: that what we're doing?
Speaker 6: Uh?
Speaker 4: Yeah, this one's for you. But first I wanted to
Speaker 4: back up and say I looked at my notes and
Speaker 4: the day after the Oakland game yesterday. I actually pulled
Speaker 4: a card called the Hangedman, and it depicts a person
Speaker 4: hanging upside down by their feet, and it's all about
Speaker 4: how you should get a new perspective in order to
Speaker 4: ford forward and be happy.
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, well general enough. I guess that worked, Kentucky.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, got it. Okay, So what's so what's my
Speaker 1: car today?
Speaker 4: Yes, I've got to go in for you today. And
Speaker 4: it's just going to take this one second. So I'll
Speaker 4: pull the three of one's and if you want to
Speaker 4: look on Google is the three of ones. Put the
Speaker 4: word writer R A D E R will pull the
Speaker 4: right one anyway. So the this is a little bit
Speaker 4: about transition, and I think this is gonna be perfect
Speaker 4: for you, Shannon. So the Ace of Ones is about,
Speaker 4: you know, it's like regular playing cards ace up through
Speaker 4: ten than face.
Speaker 3: Cards ones or ones.
Speaker 4: Like one W A N D S one one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, go ahead.
Speaker 4: A one anyway. So the Ace of Ones is about
Speaker 4: you know, the it's a fire symbolism. It's about you know,
Speaker 4: it's a it's a picture of a hand coming from
Speaker 4: heaven saying here, take this fire energy and make it
Speaker 4: the light and guide of your life and actions. The
Speaker 4: two of ones is about a person standing on like
Speaker 4: the edge of the castle, looking out over the world,
Speaker 4: and that is like your preparation. You're getting ready to
Speaker 4: walk out into the world. The three of ones, this
Speaker 4: is the one I pulled for you today, Shannon. I
Speaker 4: think this is perfect for you because this is a
Speaker 4: person standing on the river. He's holding onto a one
Speaker 4: that is attached to the ground, but he's looking out
Speaker 4: thinking about his future. And so I apply it to
Speaker 4: you this way. So you have been a rock DJ
Speaker 4: for twenty years, you are comfortable in that career, you
Speaker 4: are you are grounded in that way. However, you're now
Speaker 4: with a rock band with Alice Blueground. You guys are
Speaker 4: putting out original music. You know in your own way.
Speaker 4: If you're probably thinking about trying to go on tour,
Speaker 4: trying to do something with that band. But yet you
Speaker 4: are still firmly rooted in your world today because you
Speaker 4: know it's safe, it's comfortable, but you want to go
Speaker 4: out and do something else. And so the three of
Speaker 4: one's is that calling to go out and do something
Speaker 4: else with your life. Because the four of ones is
Speaker 4: about the completion the attainment of that act. So I
Speaker 4: think you're standing on the precipice ready to jump, but
Speaker 4: are you there yet? And that's the question that the
Speaker 4: three of Wanes ask you today.
Speaker 2: Wow, that is very insie pull trusting, much better than
Speaker 2: Billy's feminine card that you pulled yesterday.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I was emotional and feminine and Shannon's ready for
Speaker 3: the future. Tristan, that does seem right.
Speaker 2: Hey, he can't help it, man, the tarot does what
Speaker 2: it does. He just pulled a card. That's right, trusting,
Speaker 2: great call, Thank you for the call. We'll make you
Speaker 2: the whiskey thing call of the day. We'll making the
Speaker 2: whiskey thief call today.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I call bs on that one. I mean, we
Speaker 3: all got something we're looking forward to in the future,
Speaker 3: Shannon and some of us just have brighter futures than others.
Speaker 3: It's the three of ones. How did I get the
Speaker 3: feminine card yesterday? The standing on the precipice and that's
Speaker 3: just your Yeah, are you ready to quit this and
Speaker 3: be a rock band lead singer?
Speaker 2: Bo I mean I can do both. I feel like
Speaker 2: I've been doing both for the last three years.
Speaker 1: Just fine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so well not not when you go big time,
Speaker 3: and you start toring and that rider list becomes a
Speaker 3: little bit harder to get.
Speaker 2: Man, we're taking more bookings, by the way, so hit
Speaker 2: us up if you want us to come play.
Speaker 3: Well, we'll do the Kentucky tour. At least I can
Speaker 3: stay close to home. Three of ones the ones.
Speaker 2: I thought he was saying the three of ones at first,
Speaker 2: so I have to look that card up later. All right,
Speaker 2: we're gonna take a break A five, nine, two, eight,
Speaker 2: twenty two eighty seven. We're gonna go back to the phones.
Speaker 2: Take your calls for the final segment of the KSR
Speaker 2: pre show, The guide to making all parents upset, tell
Speaker 2: them that their child's kindergarten graduation doesn't matter.
Speaker 3: And this song makes me sad. I was so soft
Speaker 3: getting raised with graduations and awards ceremonies. What's wrong with
Speaker 3: my generation?
Speaker 2: So we have opinions coming in on whether or not
Speaker 2: Babe Ruth could succeed in today's game of Major League Baseball.
Speaker 3: On the text line, I loved this one. One person
Speaker 3: said Babe Ruth would get cut from the tryouts at
Speaker 3: Tates Creek High School today.
Speaker 1: No, he wouldn't know, He wouldn't.
Speaker 3: The baby you just put you just trans transplanting him
Speaker 3: as he is today. I don't think he's getting cut.
Speaker 2: That's not the day though. No, we're gonna take Babe in.
Speaker 2: We're gonna put him on a strict diet. We're gonna
Speaker 2: get them into the weight room. He's gonna be a machine.
Speaker 2: He's gonna be like a Abe's gonna be on body. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he's gonna be working out on that. You're gonna be
Speaker 2: eating salads. And don't tell me that Babe Ruth wouldn't
Speaker 2: succeed in today's world. I don't believe it. A little
Speaker 2: bit of football Billy, listen to the show on this
Speaker 2: we're a hundred days away from college football and I
Speaker 2: can't remember a quieter time ever in Kentucky football for
Speaker 2: an offseason that what we've had this year. And you
Speaker 2: can look at that, I guess from either side of
Speaker 2: the coin. You can look at it as Okay, well
Speaker 2: they're coming off a four and eight season, but they're
Speaker 2: gonna be better this year. And Mark Stoops is just
Speaker 2: reading the room. He realizes that nobody wants to hear
Speaker 2: from him because fans are going to say, well, you know,
Speaker 2: we'll believe it when we see it, so maybe that's
Speaker 2: the reason that he's being quiet, or you can look
Speaker 2: at it on the other side of the coin and go,
Speaker 2: he's being quiet because he realizes this team is in
Speaker 2: a lot of trouble and it's going to be another
Speaker 2: bad year, so he's not going to try to hype
Speaker 2: up the team too much. Which side do you tend
Speaker 2: to believe when it comes to why it's been so
Speaker 2: quiet for the football team this offseason.
Speaker 3: I think it's a little bit of a little Wayne
Speaker 3: Little John Caliperry, real geez moving silence like Lasagna. I
Speaker 3: mean they you know, for a couple of years there
Speaker 3: they were pounding their chests, talking about coaches doing their
Speaker 3: TikTok dances and their sunglasses and and you know Stoops
Speaker 3: is a victim of his own success, right, I Mean
Speaker 3: the standard was Music City Bowls when he got here,
Speaker 3: maybe even a little less than that. And now you've
Speaker 3: got to win seven, eight, nine games before fans are satisfied.
Speaker 3: But I think he's this is just kind of the
Speaker 3: opposite of what they've done over the last couple of years.
Speaker 3: I don't think it's Mark seeing the riding on the
Speaker 3: wall or not thinking his team's talented enough, because these
Speaker 3: guys are competitors. Man, They're passionate about what they do,
Speaker 3: and I don't think they go into any situation thinking
Speaker 3: that they've lost before they've even begun. So I just
Speaker 3: think it's it's a natural correction after the chestiness of
Speaker 3: the last couple of years. But I'm not gonna lie
Speaker 3: and act like I'm not worried, Shannon. I mean, you
Speaker 3: guys were talking about Toledo the other day, and.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if we're the game that is, if we're not
Speaker 2: worried about Toledo and Vanderbilt, that shows you how far
Speaker 2: the team has fallen back down.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 2: That sounds like conversation we were having during the joke
Speaker 2: or Phillips Sarah and.
Speaker 3: Old Miss is gonna be ready to go? And Kentucky
Speaker 3: essentially knocked them out of the playoffs last year with
Speaker 3: their wins, So I mean, it's gonna be an interesting
Speaker 3: first couple weeks of the year, and then you know,
Speaker 3: if they can get through that, we maybe one in
Speaker 3: one to a zero in a in a in a dream,
Speaker 3: then then maybe we can start to get excited again.
Speaker 3: But I'm with you, it's kind of wait and see
Speaker 3: if this.
Speaker 2: Stoops is kind of in the situation to where if
Speaker 2: he talks, fans are just gonna criticize it and go,
Speaker 2: we don't believe it, And then when he doesn't talk,
Speaker 2: we go, why isn't he talking?
Speaker 3: It's a tough Yeah, he's he's.
Speaker 2: Kind of like in a damned if he does, damned
Speaker 2: if he doesn't type situation, because if he's not talking,
Speaker 2: we're wanting him to talk, and then he wanted When
Speaker 2: he does talk, fans are going, we don't want to
Speaker 2: hear it.
Speaker 1: You know, enough talk, Why don't you give us some results?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 3: And you know what helps with that is the millions
Speaker 3: of dollars he makes every year.
Speaker 1: That's true. So that's true.
Speaker 3: I'm not going to lose too much sleep over you know,
Speaker 3: Stoops being in a tough position with the media, No doubt.
Speaker 3: I think these questions have been fair, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean? Like that's it's not been good over the
Speaker 3: last Real Quick over under four and a half wins
Speaker 3: this season. I saw this over under I'm gonna go over.
Speaker 3: But I don't know if they get to boiligibility Shannon,
Speaker 3: I'm thinking five, it's the magic number. I'm kind of
Speaker 3: I think stoop survives five. Yeah, I think he does too.
Speaker 3: I don't think he survives four.
Speaker 2: I think that's a great line because I think four
Speaker 2: he's out. Five it's just enough to hang on to
Speaker 2: keep your job. Four is not accepted. Five's not not
Speaker 2: acceptable really. But if he goes five and seven with
Speaker 2: this schedule, I think he gets a pass four, there's
Speaker 2: no way.
Speaker 1: Let's go to logan. What's up Logan?
Speaker 6: Hey, guys, since you brought me in on it, I'm
Speaker 6: gonna say he gets to stick. Don't ask me.
Speaker 5: Who he upsets.
Speaker 6: That's just kind of what I'm feeling.
Speaker 5: What I wanted to.
Speaker 6: Say, though, was I graduated with a degree in psychology,
Speaker 6: and I also have my own child, so I'm going
Speaker 6: to weigh in a little bit. I so my son,
Speaker 6: for example, just registered for preschool. My wife is going crazy.
Speaker 6: I'm like, yeah, you know, good for him, he's about
Speaker 6: to start fourteen years of torture. But as are as
Speaker 6: people undermining you know, kindergarten graduations, fifth grade, eight grade,
Speaker 6: things like that, that's just such a mindset of a
Speaker 6: heartened adult who has experienced kind of the lows and
Speaker 6: transgressions of lives, where if you're in the place of
Speaker 6: these five year olds, you're thinking, hey, I did it.
Speaker 6: Like this is the greatest thing they've accomplished so far
Speaker 6: because they've learned reading, writing, They've started going through processes
Speaker 6: of eliminations and how to like work out lives problems,
Speaker 6: and those are like fundamental, you know, skillful in it
Speaker 6: for life.
Speaker 2: I hate to logan, we're at the end of the show.
Speaker 2: I hate to cut you off, but but.
Speaker 3: That takes stuff Logan. That's that makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 2: They're going to getting cut off no more. Uh Matt
Speaker 2: Jones just letting people talk.
Speaker 3: Are you ready? He's gonna get to cut him off
Speaker 3: today quick.
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening. See it
