27
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 2: I have the same lady who's cut my hair for

28
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 2: like twenty five years. Michelle Collins is my hairdresser here

29
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: in Lexington.

30
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 5: You should you should feel really lucky to have somebody

31
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 5: who's done that for that long.

32
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,559
Speaker 2: Because she does a great job.

33
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 5: Well, she's consistent. Let's just say that she's with you.

34
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 5: She's consistent. I lost the lady who cut my hair.

35
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 5: I was with her for like nine years.

36
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 6: And then she.

37
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: Are we losing? Well we'll Drew and I'll pick it

38
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 2: back up. And Shannon, you your magic again. With Tom,

39
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 2: I mean.

40
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 7: Like it's showing that he's on there. He's just on

41
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 7: the phone. Now we're losing his connection through his phone.

42
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 7: So this is not the on zip app the phone connection.

43
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 8: Is this the best of episode? You guys think maybe

44
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 8: fourth of July.

45
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 2: I think this is a perfect one.

46
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:11,799
Speaker 7: This is a show that makes me want to pull

47
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 7: my hair out instead of worrying about a haircut.

48
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 2: Well we can we can chat a little bit while

49
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 2: you uh where you get that talk?

50
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 8: Are we supposed to be hearing that.

51
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's not on, like so I.

52
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: Wonder if he thinks he's talking, he probably thinks that

53
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 2: he is talking.

54
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 7: He is talking, He probably thinks that he's on and

55
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 7: he's not because we can't hear him.

56
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, we give any thumbs down. I'll call back all right, well, Drew,

57
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 2: you and I will. I want to a story I

58
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,519
Speaker 2: do want to say because it's happening tonight. Okay, the

59
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 2: high school state baseball tournament starts tomorrow, but there's a

60
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 2: team coming in tonight to Chaos Bar and Grill for

61
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 2: a team meal to where we we jump on board

62
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 2: with these teams. When you come to Chaos Bar and Grill,

63
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,519
Speaker 2: we're on board that you're our team. It's LaRue County.

64
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 2: So if you remember LaRue can we were just there

65
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 2: in LaRue County to help their fundraising efforts to raise

66
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 2: money for a new track and a new football stadium. Well,

67
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 2: their baseball team, listen to this. Going into the tournament,

68
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 2: from what I understand, lost ten games in a row,

69
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 2: ten in a row. Going to the tournament. They're made

70
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 2: up of nothing but freshmen and sophomores, and they won

71
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,239
Speaker 2: the region tournament to go to the state baseball tournament.

72
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 2: And apparently when the coach was talking to Monique, our

73
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 2: manager here setting up the team meal, they were both

74
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 2: in tears. The coach was crying, Monique was crying. Everybody

75
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 2: was crying. So LaRue County, you know, Casey Clark.

76
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, we enjoyed our trip to LaRue right before the

77
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 9: SEC tournament. Did a little fundraiser at their football stage.

78
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 8: You know they say you.

79
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 9: Gotta be hot going in the postseason. They were just resting.

80
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 9: They just resting up. They didn't need those ten games.

81
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 8: They were good. They were just waiting for it. No matter.

82
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 2: So, ladies, gentlemen, without further ado, we have reconnected with

83
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: our good friend Thomas Hart in the atl Hello Tom

84
00:03:58,480 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 2: further ado.

85
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 5: There's plenty of du there's like, in fact, double it up.

86
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 5: There's been dodoo. The technology has been straight doodoo so far. Today. Okay,

87
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 5: I gave you guys an assignment to jump on my

88
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 5: Instagram story Tommy H t O M M I E

89
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 5: H forty four and scroll through and see the picture.

90
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 5: Do you think they know I'm on my walk last night?

91
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 5: And obviously there are some shrubs that had been recently

92
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 5: landscaped and I don't quite know how to explain it

93
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 5: on a radio show. Ryan, I'm going to put it reluctantly.

94
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 5: I'm going to give you the opportunity to maybe my

95
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 5: first and last show by offering Ryan this responsibility. How

96
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 5: would you describe the shape? And yeah, how would you

97
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 5: describe the shape of the shrubs that were that were

98
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 5: landscaped in a certain way.

99
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 2: There's only one way to describe it is a guy's junk.

100
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: That's exactly what it looks like.

101
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 7: Let's just say, you know, back in the nineties, Kentucky

102
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,280
Speaker 7: had a certain logo with a certain tongue. Yes, that

103
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 7: was shaped like a certain something. Yes, the bushes are

104
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 7: in the same shape as the wildcat tongue on.

105
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 2: The nar There's no doubt. And whoever that balance, they

106
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 2: had to know what they were doing. That wasn't an accident.

107
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 2: I think they had to know what they were doing.

108
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 5: So if you've seen it, you know what we're talking about.

109
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,119
Speaker 5: Tommy h forty four on Instagram and you can scroll

110
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 5: through and you'll see it. Here's what happens. So if

111
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 5: you're the homeowner and you walk out and you go, bro,

112
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 5: what'd you do? But do you think the landscaper was

113
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 5: mad at them and was like, this is the last

114
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 5: time I'm working this house. It'll pay me well enough.

115
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 5: I'm mad at this dude. They're gonna have to live

116
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 5: with it. Drew in what scenario if assuming that the

117
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 5: homeowner is a righteous family, and what.

118
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 9: That happened, see the moment I saw it. I see

119
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 9: this as like a next level vandalism. You can't live

120
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 9: in this house and want that, like, I don't think

121
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 9: there's a scenario where someone says I want to look

122
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 9: out my window and see that I want people to

123
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 9: drive by my house and associate that with me. So

124
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 9: I see this as an attack by an angry neighbor.

125
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 9: This looks like a wealthy form of vandalism. He's like,

126
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 9: you know what, I'm gonna pay a company to go

127
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 9: shrub your bushes to look like what Ryan described. So

128
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 9: I see this as a form of attack within the neighborhood,

129
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 9: not as someone requested this, because I just cannot think

130
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 9: of a scenario where you would want your landscaping to

131
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 9: look like that.

132
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 5: If you, Shannon, if you pay somebody for a service

133
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 5: and they do that, yeah, do you walk out like

134
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 5: you do? You pay them. I mean they mowed the lawn, right,

135
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 5: they probably picked up all the leaves. They did everything

136
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 5: else I would assume properly. What do you say to

137
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 5: the guy when you walk out the hand of a

138
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 5: check or to venmo, I.

139
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 3: Think I say you're fired.

140
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 2: I think this is one or two.

141
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 3: One of two scenarios happened here.

142
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 7: Either the one you mentioned they're a disgruntled landscaper who

143
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 7: was angry at the owner for whatever reason, or maybe

144
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 7: b these people are like trying to put off some

145
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 7: sort of symbolism.

146
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 3: Maybe these are swingers or something that live there, you know.

147
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 7: Like a subtle sign to the neighbors, like hey, if

148
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 7: you're down, if you know, you know, come on over,

149
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 7: type of thing, like the upside down pineapple. This is

150
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 7: just their form of maybe advertising their lifestyle to everybody.

151
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 3: So one of those two scenarios.

152
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 5: It is not a pineapple and it's definitely not upside down.

153
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,239
Speaker 3: No, it's coming out of the ground.

154
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 8: Will you keep us updated, like at Christmas? Will there

155
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 8: be lights? Will this get decorated? Like I want to

156
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 8: know if it's seasonal maybe some cobwebs.

157
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 2: I think we all agree though somebody did it on purpose.

158
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 2: I don't think that was an accident. Somebody purposely shaped

159
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 2: them that way.

160
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,040
Speaker 5: You don't think that maybe they were going on the

161
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 5: sheep and they hired somebody didn't have a ton of experience,

162
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 5: and like, hey, can you trim the hollies out front,

163
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 5: just you know, trim them up on the side and

164
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 5: make them look good. I'd like them to be uniform.

165
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 5: And the guy was like, I've never done this before.

166
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 5: I usually just pushed them ower. But I guess I'll try.

167
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 5: I mean, that's possible, right, that it's just somebody who

168
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,119
Speaker 5: didn't know what they were doing.

169
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 7: Well, what if it's like this situation because like you know,

170
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 7: the higher up you go, it's longer. What if the

171
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 7: person was just short and couldn't reach the top so

172
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 7: they from their high down and it was a complete accident.

173
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 2: How tall? How tall are those shrubs? Uh?

174
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 5: I was really nervous taking a picture as I walked

175
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,079
Speaker 5: by the house last night, like cause they were home

176
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 5: when I took the picture, and I didn't I didn't

177
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 5: want them. I didn't want to come across as any

178
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 5: creepier than their shrubs are. But I really wanted to

179
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 5: get the shot. But I would guess, Yeah, they're you know,

180
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 5: taller than me by a couple of feet. They probably

181
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 5: eight feet tall.

182
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 2: Well, Shannon may have nailed it. Then that may have

183
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 2: been as high as they could reach with their little owner.

184
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 3: That's a really unfortunate mistake.

185
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 9: I think by taking the I think by you taking

186
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 9: the picture, they're waiting looking out their window, hoping someone notices.

187
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 9: And now you're on their radar. And I'd be just

188
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 9: watching my house. I'd be watching my walks. You might

189
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 9: have new friends you didn't know you had before that walk.

190
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,319
Speaker 5: You think it was a trap.

191
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 9: A walker to notice what they had done. And this

192
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 9: is their window.

193
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 8: Hey, we saw you take a picture of those bushes.

194
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 8: You think of them?

195
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 5: Let me tell you what. I walked a lot faster

196
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 5: home once I got the picture. I was like, I

197
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 5: got to get out of this part of the neighborhood

198
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 5: so I can.

199
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 8: Talk about it on radio. I want to keep this lakey.

200
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 8: I want to make a whole bit about it.

201
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 10: Yeah.

202
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, I gotta bring something that Ryan could relate to.

203
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,959
Speaker 5: Like when I walked, when I saw those Ryan's name

204
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 5: just popped in me. This is this is what's gonna happen.

205
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 9: You don't have a Facebook group, you can ask like,

206
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 9: what's the next door app?

207
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 8: You get?

208
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 9: Is it one of those communities where you can just

209
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 9: throw out there, Hey, what's up with this?

210
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 5: It's a fair question. I'm not on the next door app?

211
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 5: This is It was a very long walk. It's not

212
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 5: actually my neighborhood. It's like the neighborhood adjacent. So I

213
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 5: don't go down there that often. But I think maybe

214
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 5: I should keep swinging by there and see if they

215
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 5: make a wing.

216
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, you should keep swinging.

217
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 5: I would the second I saw that, I'd be like,

218
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 5: I would just lop them off or cut them down,

219
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 5: like I'm sorry, it's gotta go. Like if you get

220
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 5: a really bad haircut, like sometimes like your kids try

221
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 5: to cut their own hair, you gotta shave your head. Sorry,

222
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 5: we got to take it all off. I cannot have

223
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 5: those in front of my house.

224
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 9: Yeah, tell tell the wife they got struck by lightning.

225
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 9: They're gone dug them up the moment I saw that.

226
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 9: Can't have that outside.

227
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 2: You just keep this updated throughout the summer for sure.

228
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 5: Well do if you get a bad haircut, you still

229
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 5: do you still tip? Do you still you go back

230
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 5: to that same person? You going the same rhinds are

231
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 5: doing the same person forever, Shannon. How about you, like,

232
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 5: if you get a bad haircut, you roll the dice

233
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 5: again and go back and Okay, maybe they'll be better.

234
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 7: Funny you bring this up. Just got one a couple

235
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 7: of weeks ago. Uh, they gave me what looked like

236
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 7: the dumb and dumber haircut. But it wasn't my normal person,

237
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 7: right it was. It was one of those situations to

238
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 7: where I go in to my normal person to get

239
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 7: a haircut and they go, oh, she's on vacation for

240
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 7: two weeks. And now I go, I can't just go

241
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:25,959
Speaker 7: around looking like a you know.

242
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 2: Like a bomb.

243
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 3: So I got to go get a haircut.

244
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 7: I go to one of these places where you can

245
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 7: get a ten dollars haircut and you get what you

246
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 7: pay for, right, So no, I'm not going back to

247
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 7: that person.

248
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 5: So you look like you look like a shrub. You

249
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 5: came out of there looking like a shrub.

250
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 9: Yes, yeah, he's been getting hit with a lot of

251
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 9: a lot of mean people on the internet when that

252
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 9: picture went out. We're mad at what people were saying

253
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 9: about Shannon's haircut.

254
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, bullies, Okay, I could take it. I'm a big boy.

255
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 5: It's not polite. That's a gamble. It's a gamble. Anytime

256
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 5: you go in there, right, you're going to don't know?

257
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 5: Did you hear about the picture for the Oakland A's

258
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 5: He was a three years ago made ninety nine dollars

259
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 5: a bets on baseball. It cost him eight one hundred

260
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 5: and fifty thousand dollars.

261
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 2: Oh man from goodness wow, thirty one year old pitcher

262
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 2: was having his best season now well, actually he suspended

263
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 2: for a year and will forego most of his seven

264
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 2: hundred and forty thousand dollars salary, and all he won

265
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,439
Speaker 2: was ninety nine dollars on the bets that he made.

266
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 5: He made ten bets on MLB games for a total

267
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 5: of ninety nine dollars. Jared Diamond of Wall Street General

268
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 5: wrote an article about it. There's been a couple of

269
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 5: guys that went down. There was another minor leaguer who

270
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 5: bet a ton and didn't win any games, but he

271
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 5: was in the Pirates organization and a bunch of parlays

272
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 5: involving the Pirates. He bet over eight eighty seven thousand

273
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 5: dollars on it, so he's been banned for life. There's

274
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 5: a one two, three, four guys have been suspended at

275
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 5: least one year for betting. Shohe Otani was cleared. They

276
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 5: hammered the his interpreter. But this just happened, you know,

277
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 5: yesterday or the day before.

278
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 9: Did you see the dude yesterday? He his last game,

279
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 9: I guess his last weekend. Moments after his last game,

280
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 9: he tweeted goodbye college baseball, Hello DraftKings, like minutes after

281
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 9: the game ended, so it was clear he was moving

282
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 9: on from his college career into the gambling world.

283
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 5: Well, we already had the gamely Candle of Iowa, right,

284
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 5: which was a total overreach. But I'm just worried. Man,

285
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 5: you lose me again?

286
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 3: Yeah we did for like, yeah, a couple of sais

287
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 3: who we got you?

288
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:38,719
Speaker 6: Though? You got me.

289
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 5: The technology is a gamble. This is a gamble, and

290
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 5: I just crapped out again. And now I feel like

291
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 5: we're like one news cycle away from some really bad

292
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 5: stories involving college kids. The pro pro dum should know better, Like,

293
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 5: if you're playing baseball, it is explicitly stayed at every

294
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 5: clubhouse you walk into, no matter what form, you cannot

295
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 5: gamble on baseball, right, there's some leeway and gray areas

296
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 5: and other sports, but you can't gamble on baseball. And

297
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 5: it's even tighter for college athletes. And I just think

298
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 5: with the proliferation of everything that we deal with that

299
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 5: you're gonna have something big going down and you're gonna

300
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 5: lose big, major players and lose their eligibility.

301
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 2: Well, like you said, they know going in, man, you

302
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 2: can't bet on your sport. They know that. So if

303
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 2: they're going, if they're like Matt always says, there can't

304
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 2: be a punishment. If you don't break a rule, or

305
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 2: you can't break a rule, there's got to be a

306
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 2: punishment something like that.

307
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 7: Pishment isn't break a rule, you can't have a punishment

308
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 7: something like that.

309
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 2: So this dude is breaking the rules, so he's got

310
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 2: to have a punishment. I mean, I think he probably

311
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 2: he knew. You know, it's not like a secret like

312
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 2: they're going to surprise him. Well, you can't bet on baseball.

313
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 2: They knew that.

314
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 5: John Say Porter got banned from the NBA. That's uh,

315
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 5: Michael Porter's little brother, right, And they just arrested his

316
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 5: co conspira in Brooklyn. And and now that guy's going

317
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 5: to jail for taking the under on the John Taystup

318
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 5: when he took himself out of the game. And and

319
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 5: that came about because Dante Porter himself, according to the reports,

320
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 5: was a gambler and owed a ton of money. And

321
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 5: that's why they have the rule in place. Right, That's

322
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 5: where the original baseball rule came across. Is if you

323
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 5: owe somebody a ton of money because you're a bad gambler,

324
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 5: then they're gonna have your over barrel and they're going

325
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 5: to try to find ways to use your information or

326
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 5: use your skill to then win that money back.

327

00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 5: the up and up. I mean, Shannon, could you imagine

330
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:41,920

Speaker 5: off on the right fletch, just like he did with

445
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 5: all the every time he helped when there was a

446
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 5: natural disaster in Kentucky.

452
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:37,719
Speaker 2: here with tornadoes, floods, whatever it is, he he steps

453

457
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,679

Speaker 2: Mario kind of confiscated it. He has He not shared anything.

471
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 9: He pronounced that name though, Ryan, it's a it's a

472
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 9: shop downtown, but I want to get his pronunciation.

473
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 2: That's dollhouse, dollhouse, fus dall, who's dah, who's dall? Who's fudge?

474
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 8: Whatever you want? He's the one I mentioned.

475
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 9: He was serving fudge and Joe was singing in his

476
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 9: shop and he couldn't get it turned off.

477
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 8: Yes, so he made a note for Kentucky Joe on there.

478
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 5: I'm not I don't usually use the word fair or unfair,

479
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 5: but in this case, well, how is it fair that

480
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,919
Speaker 5: I'm doing the heavy lifting on this show and you

481
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,320

482
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 5: deal with that?

483
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 2: You know what I'm hearing? Drew? Why that's what I'm hearing?

484
00:22:58,920 --> 00:22:59,080

00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 9: Tom, We've been doing the heavy lifting on this show

486
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 9: for years, so this is no, it's not just you.

487
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 5: There's nothing more annoying than a grown man doing the

488
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 5: crying sound. You know, we would never do that, Nick Menjio,

489
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,639
Speaker 5: We're gonna talk with the Kentucky baseball coach about the

490
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,119
Speaker 5: super regional coming up next. KSR continues after this.

491
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,159
Speaker 3: TJ Smith, personal injury attorney, called TJ.

00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:26,440

499
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 5: Well you should feel good, if for no other reason,

500
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 5: then I've been your bad luck charm because I've called

501
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 5: each of the two supers, the one in Louisville and

502
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 5: the one last year at LSU, and you guys didn't

503
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 5: make it out. So now that I'm not going to

504
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 5: be there, I will not be present, So I'm out

505
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 5: of the way for Kentucky to make its first trip

506
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 5: to Omaha. And I will start our discussion today with

507
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 5: the same question I asked you when we're in Louisville

508
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 5: years ago, and we're in Baton Rouge last year. If

509
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 5: if this team is able to pull this off and

510
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 5: get to Omaha for the first time in the history

511
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 5: of this program, who do you think would feel most

512
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 5: outside of the current players and coaching staff, who in

513
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,360
Speaker 5: the history of the program would feel most rewarded by that.

514
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:46,360
Speaker 12: Start with our athletic corrector, Mitch Barnhart. I'll start with him,

515
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,160
Speaker 12: the guy that just continue to invest in our program.

516
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 12: You know this, Tom, but we have a beautiful facility

517
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 12: and there's a guy that had a vision for.

518
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:02,199
Speaker 6: This, put it in a whole new location, invested a

519
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 6: lot of time, effort.

520
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 12: Energy resources to build something like Kentucky Proud Park for

521
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,679
Speaker 12: a moment like this. And then the next person I

522
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 12: would go to is Keith Modising. I've just spent the

523
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 12: morning with these land and our coaching staff and a

524
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 12: Bible study for eight straight years once a week.

525
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 6: And it's a guy that has invested.

526
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:28,120
Speaker 12: Twenty five years of his life into our baseball program.

527
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 12: So those are the first two people that have come

528
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 12: to my mind.

529
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 5: I love it. Your team, the program as a whole

530
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 5: has such great positive energy, and I feel like that's

531
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 5: a direct reflection of not just your coaching style but

532
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 5: your personality. But to some at some point, the players

533
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 5: have to that has to be authentic with them. They

534
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 5: have to take that on themselves. How did this team's

535
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 5: personality grow over the last couple of years.

536
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 13: I'm glad you said that, because it's taken a couple

537
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 13: of years, and you know, back in twenty two, I

538
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 13: just keep going back to that year. How you know

539
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 13: we lose our Friday and Saturday starters. And I often

540
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 13: use the example of you know, when you lose a

541
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 13: Friday guy or a starter, it's much like driving down

542
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 13: the road and you're having a flat tire. You're like, man,

543
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 13: I don't I hate this, but you got to pull

544
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 13: over and you've gotta change your tire. Right, and you

545
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 13: know it's gonna take you twenty thirty forty minutes. Tom guy,

546
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 13: like yourself, I'm sure you could probably do it.

547
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 6: In like seven or eight.

548
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 10: All right, Like cover me if I take.

549
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:41,360
Speaker 6: It, it's gonna take me thirty minutes, right, whatever. Well,

550
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 6: then we lost our Saturday starter.

551
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 13: Well, now that's like having two flat tires at the

552
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 13: same time. You're sitting there, and while you're sitting there,

553
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 13: the rest of the league it's just moving along and they're.

554
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 6: Going down the highway.

555
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:54,160
Speaker 10: So that was a hard year.

556
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 12: I thought that team we had a regionable caliber team. Well,

557
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,119
Speaker 12: by the time we got the that year, you remember

558
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 12: we make it late run. We were the twelve seed

559
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 12: in the SEC tournament. No twelve seed has ever.

560
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 10: Won a game.

561
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:09,920
Speaker 13: We win, we make it to what we were in

562
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,400
Speaker 13: the final four, and we were one win short.

563
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 12: With all of that that happened. So we had some

564
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 12: guys in our current team now.

565
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 13: That have been through that, and in twenty two, we

566
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 13: just changed at the end of the year the way

567
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 13: we were approaching our offense, the way we approached the

568
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 13: game of baseball. We just started with attacking and being

569
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 13: aggressive on every level. And that's carried over to last

570
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 13: year and then this year.

571
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 6: So we have a core.

572
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 13: Group of people that have been there and done that,

573
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 13: and the players have taken it over themselves. And I

574
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 13: just remember being at Southern Illinois last year and making

575
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 13: Ryan haking Out our dugout captain and turned the reins

576
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 13: over to him and he started running our dugout And

577
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 13: I never had to go to any individual player about anything.

578
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 6: If there was.

579
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 13: Something going on that we didn't like, I'm would go

580
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 13: straight to Ryan hagen Out and he would fix it.

581
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 13: And he's done a great job. And the player that

582
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:04,199
Speaker 13: bought in and building block of our team. Sure they

583
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 13: have fun, Tom, but it does start with and I

584
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 13: don't want people to lose this how competitive they are.

585
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 13: If they don't compete, we will hold them accountable, and

586
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 13: they compete at a high level, but then they also

587
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 13: have fun while they do it.

588
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:18,640
Speaker 6: But I'm not interested.

589
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 10: In having fun.

590
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,719
Speaker 13: If we're not competing, that will not happen.

591
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 6: So don't lose.

592
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 10: Sight of I tell people all the time how.

593
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 6: Competitive they are. They're uber competitive.

594
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 5: Well, I think first of all, having a player led

595
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 5: team is the most efficient way you can manage a team. Right,

596
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 5: Like you said, you just take that off of your

597
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 5: plate and let the players lead themselves. But from a

598
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 5: fun and lose standpoint, it's a baseball season is a

599
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 5: long season, man, and so to avoid, you know, the

600
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 5: stress of Okay, we're two wins from om all, I

601
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 5: think that's incredibly important. Now you get an opponent coming

602
00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 5: in here from Morgan State that is a national ranked opponent,

603
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 5: and they had a good year in the Pac twelve.

604
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 5: They're used to having success in the postseason. We talked

605
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 5: to Wes Clementsum the first half of the show about

606
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 5: some of their talent. They're number one guys, got velocity,

607
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,959
Speaker 5: will hit ninety seven. You've seen that in the SEC.

608
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 5: I feel like you've seen all of Oregon State's strengths

609
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 5: in the teams you've already faced over the course of

610
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 5: the season. Not saying you face them, obviously you haven't.

611
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 5: But how does this league, which had a record eleven

612
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 5: in the tournament, how does that help prepare you for

613
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 5: the postseason?

614
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 13: It absolutely has, and you're right tom Now, obviously they're

615
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 13: a team that we have in faced, but when you

616
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 13: go through an SEC weekend, you know this it is

617
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 13: an absolute dogfight, and it is an absolute emotional, mentally, physically,

618
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 13: it is a full on battle, a battle, and the

619
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 13: the goal coming out of every weekend is to win

620
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 13: the series.

621
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 6: That is the goal.

622
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 13: So man, that means, you know, for us this year,

623
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 13: we've lost a Friday game, we've lost the first game

624
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 13: of the series, and we've.

625
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 10: Had to win the next two.

626
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 6: And we've done that.

627
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 13: We've won the first game, lost the second.

628
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 6: You gotta win the third one.

629
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 10: So having been in a league where you are required

630
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 10: for ten.

631
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 13: S great weeks to perform at the highest level, and

632
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 13: the second you take your eyes the prize and the

633
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 13: road and the thing, the next thing in front of you,

634
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 13: the second you try to sit there and you chill

635
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 13: out and you try to catch your breath. Uh, you're

636
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 13: getting passed by. And it is happens quick.

637
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 12: The margin of victory and you know this, tom is

638
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 12: so small, it's so small. And you come out of

639
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 12: those weekends and you go, hey, listen, if we didn't

640
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 12: make this play right here, we would have lost that game,

641
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 12: which means we would have lost the series. Hey, if

642
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 12: we didn't get this hit right here, we would have

643
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 12: lost that game, which means we.

644
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 10: Would have got swept.

645
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 6: Hey, if we would have done.

646
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 13: Display, or we would have made display, we would have swept,

647
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 13: or we got swept.

648
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 6: We are two plays away.

649
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 13: Instead, we win the series, but we are two plays

650
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 13: away from getting swept.

651
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 6: That's how close and how small.

652
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 10: The margin victory is.

653
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 6: And you know this, Don, Super Regionals is no different.

654
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 6: But our league has put us in that position to

655
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 6: where we hit for ten straight weeks. Yeah.

656
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 5: I was in Stillwater this weekend and Florida knocked off

657
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 5: Oklahoma State based on one catch and center field with

658
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 5: the bases loaded. Florida made the play, Oklahoma State didn't.

659
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 5: Florida plays on. I don't want to hijack the entire

660
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 5: interview because I know Ryan and Drew are at chaos

661
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 5: ball right now, and Ryan is a huge baseball guy,

662
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 5: so on him, get him involved too, Ryan, you want

663
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 5: to jump in with coaching min jail.

664
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, coach man, it's good to have you back on.

665
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 2: We missed the motivation Mondays, where be a fountain, not

666
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 2: a drain, and the water water softens the potato but

667
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 2: hardens the egg. We miss those days for sure.

668
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 10: Well, I've missed having you on. Thanks for having me

669
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 10: on now.

670
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 2: The fans this past weekend were in saying coach, I

671
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 2: mean they set through the end of the game Saturday,

672
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 2: set through the rain at the end of the game,

673
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 2: and then they stood in line Sunday for like an

674
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 2: hour and a half in the rain as they had

675
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 2: to rant before it got started. That shows you, I think,

676
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 2: how baseball crazy this town has become over your team.

677
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 13: Yeah, and we're very appreciative and we're thankful Ryan, because

678
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 13: this has not been something that has just happened overnight.

679
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 13: It's been a lot of time, effort, energy on a

680
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 13: lot of people.

681
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 10: And I will say this about the Big Blue Nations.

682
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 10: When they have a.

683
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 12: Team, whether it's the field, a court, it doesn't matter where.

684
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 12: When they have a team that genuinely loves each other

685
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 12: and they want to compete and do.

686
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 10: Everything they can to help Kentucky win, they appreciate that.

687
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 10: And this fan base has realized that.

688
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 13: About our teams the last couple of years is about Hey, listen,

689
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 13: they love competing at the highest level. They want to

690
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 13: win for Kentucky, and they're very unselfish. So that means

691
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 13: if the third basemin's back.

692
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 10: We're gonna bond.

693
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 13: That means if we have to steal a base, we're

694
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 13: gonna do it.

695
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 10: If it means we got to hit a home run,

696
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 10: we're gonna do it. And if that means we've got to.

697
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 13: Intentionally walk their best player to try to get somebody out,

698
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 13: to let somebody else beat us, like they're gonna do it,

699
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 13: and they're gonna do everything they can to make the pitch.

700
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 13: And this fan base has done that. And you know,

701
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 13: we have this saying in our program. You know we've

702
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,480
Speaker 13: been hit by over one hundred pitches. Right, we say

703
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 13: we don't move, like we do not move in the

704
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 13: batter's box Like that is like a mantra of ours.

705
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 6: Like we don't move.

706
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 13: Well, you know who else hasn't moved is our fans.

707
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 10: They've sat there.

708
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 6: In the pouring rain.

709
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 13: They just let the water just poured down on them

710
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,239
Speaker 13: for an hour and a half the other day and

711
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 13: they're not.

712
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 6: Losing their seat open.

713
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 12: And we came out and competed really hard for them

714
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 12: and gave them like much our players gave them an experience.

715
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 12: And that's what we're all about, is giving our players

716
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 12: and our fans an experience they'll never forget, and we'll

717
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,400
Speaker 12: never forget them sitting there wearing it and being the

718
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 12: way they were for our guys.

719
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 6: We're thankful.

720
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 9: Hey, Nick Drew here, I'm still drying off from the weekend.

721
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 9: That was a lot of fun. But I noticed on Sunday.

722
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 9: On Sunday night, you said this one feels different. I

723
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 9: was ready for a dog pile. You didn't dog pile.

724
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:36,880
Speaker 9: You're coming back home next weekend instead of being on

725
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 9: the move. Now that it's three days later, does it

726
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 9: still feel a little different internally as you're heading to

727
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 9: another shot at the Supers.

728
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 6: Yeah, that is.

729
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 12: Because you know, to Tom's point and he's been with us,

730
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 12: and Tom just thank you for not being there this weekend.

731
00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 12: Just you know, this time, you know, seventeen and last year,

732
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 12: you're backing up, we're getting ready to load up or

733
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 12: you know, trying to figure out our plans and when

734
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 12: we're going to show up to each you know, different venue.

735
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 12: And now we're we're at home and our guys are doing.

736
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 13: The early work on the field and they're preparing and

737
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 13: they're sleeping in their own beds, and you know, so, yeah,

738
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 13: it does feel different.

739
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 10: And you know, I've always.

740
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 13: Said this and you guys know this, but it helps

741
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 13: when you have a group of guys that have been

742
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 13: there and done that, and we have enough guys off

743
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:32,880
Speaker 13: of last year's team that have been in this position.

744
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 13: So for them, yeah, there was no dog pile. They

745
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 13: knew what it felt like last year being in Baton

746
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 13: Rouge and losing and not being able to make it

747
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 13: and it being two wins from Baseball's version of the

748
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 13: Promised Land, and so they want something different and bigger,

749
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 13: and they helped make it feel that way.

750
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,799
Speaker 5: Nick, I should know this, so I apologize. But you've

751
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 5: been to Omaha as an assistant, correct.

752
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 6: I have.

753
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 13: Yeah, when thirteen we played in the National Championship and

754
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 13: we lost the UCLA and the finals, it's like I've

755
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 13: gotten to the spot time where it's like I want

756
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 13: all this for the guys.

757
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:12,399

762
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:22,760
Speaker 13: that was the second time I lost in the finals.

763
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 13: The other time was when I was at Embury Riddle

764
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 13: and she looked at me and she's like, are you

765
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 13: ever gonna win one?

766
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:30,799
Speaker 10: Are you kidding me?

Speaker 13: they've never been they've never been well.

772
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 5: I just, you know, as someone who worked that event

773
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 5: for a few years, knowing what it is, I can't.

774

792
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:47,840
Speaker 6: But I've been here for eight years, and I.

793
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 10: Think people know this about me.

794
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 13: I love and support the other programs as much as

795
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,359
Speaker 13: my own right, and they caused the big Glue Nation.

796
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 13: And my favorite hashtag is we are UK. And anytime

797
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,880
Speaker 13: I tweet out anything or about any other sport or anything,

798
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,840
Speaker 13: I always put we are UK because we are the

799
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 13: University of Kentucky and we are one. And I've been

800
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,720
Speaker 13: here for eight years, and I've sat in Rep. Aerna

801
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 13: and Tom, you've been in there at nine o'clock at

802
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 13: night on a Tuesday and you looked up and there's

803
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 13: twenty four thousand people there. Twenty four You've been there.

804
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 13: You've been there, you've seen it. You've been in our

805
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 13: football stadium. We've had over fifty thousand people. So look

806
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 13: a nine o'clock start. I'm really not concerned one did,

807
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 13: because I've seen what our fan base has done.

808
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 6: They've done it for basketball.

809
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,440
Speaker 13: Oh and by the way, in twenty seventeen, we won

810
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 13: our first ever regional championship and that game did not

811
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,399
Speaker 13: finish till after one o'clock in the morning. The game

812
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,880
Speaker 13: did not start till after nine o'clock after a lightning

813
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,960
Speaker 13: storm on a Monday night, and the fans were there,

814
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 13: So I actually, I'm not concerned, and I know they'll.

815
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 6: Come because that's what they do.

816
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:09,839
Speaker 13: They support our programs and as well as anybody. I mean,

817
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 13: and it doesn't matter if it's a midweek or a

818
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 13: Sunday night. There's no school, so I know the kids

819
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:15,840
Speaker 13: and where they're going to.

820
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 10: Want to be.

821
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 13: And this is what my message to the Big Blue

822
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 13: Nation would be, like, Hey, I know the kids got

823
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 13: to go to bed. I got a nine year old,

824
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:26,320
Speaker 13: But we're interested in not giving reeves our sun things.

825
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 13: We're more concerned about giving them experiences. And a kid

826
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 13: at eleven or twelve o'clock at night will remember that

827
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 13: baseball game more than they would staring at the back

828
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 13: of their eyeballs in a bed on a.

829
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 10: Random Sunday June night. So Big Blue Nation, let's.

830
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:48,160
