Speaker 2: a lot of fun.
Speaker 6: Did you do it one summer?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Every day I would just get in there at like
Speaker 2: eight am. They'd give me my delivery order and I
Speaker 2: was on the open road all day, nobody bugging you.
Speaker 2: And because I knew eastern Kentucky, they usually send me
Speaker 2: out to London or Corman or like, I'd deliver all
Speaker 2: the stuff out there. I loved it. That was a
Speaker 2: great job. And then I worked. Yeah, that was it.
Speaker 2: Then I became a lawyer, which is not really a job.
Speaker 6: Wasn't there some connections with Trinity Church with Casual Living
Speaker 6: in you they hired you?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 4: Never mind?
Speaker 2: All right, I don't know what that is.
Speaker 7: Billy is here dry cleaning? Surprising? I never heard that story.
Speaker 5: Yeah, did dryly.
Speaker 2: That's a hot job because the one because like not
Speaker 2: like it was exciting, it was like physically hot because
Speaker 2: I mean in the summer. Now, I was like I've
Speaker 2: said this before. That was in the air when everybody
Speaker 2: would gt their genes started. All these people would come
Speaker 2: in and they'd be like extra starch, and you'd look
Speaker 2: at them and go okay, and they go extra start
Speaker 2: and you'd give them jeans that were standing up by themselves. Neg,
Speaker 2: that's not enough start, break them in half. It the
Speaker 2: would just yell at you all the time. I spent
Speaker 2: the whole summer getting yelled at for not having enough
Speaker 2: starch in the jeans. It was all right, Uh, we
Speaker 2: were doing the counties. Yes, Uh, you gotta have to
Speaker 2: remind me where we put where we left off.
Speaker 7: We have Butler in Caldwell County.
Speaker 2: All right, so Butler County.
Speaker 7: Is that Morgantown, morgan Field that Morgantown, correct.
Speaker 2: Morgantown one of our first affiliates was I think Morganfield
Speaker 2: Field was our first first one, but Morgantown.
Speaker 6: Came right after.
Speaker 2: Well, part of the reason Morgantown came right after is
Speaker 2: I couldn't get him. I kept forgetting which was which,
Speaker 2: and I would say the other one so much that
Speaker 2: they finally just took the show to shut me up.
Speaker 6: We used to go there every summer doing the show.
Speaker 2: Morgantown. We go to that the guy who would paint cars.
Speaker 6: Yes, you remember that he made us a big KSR
Speaker 6: thing that.
Speaker 5: He made us.
Speaker 2: I still have that that little KSR medal. Yes, I
Speaker 2: wonder if he's still going.
Speaker 6: I don't know, all right.
Speaker 2: So Morgantown in Butler County go ahead.
Speaker 7: Yes, part of west central Kentucky, formed in eighteen ten
Speaker 7: from portions of Logan and Ohio Counties, named after Major
Speaker 7: General Richard Butler, who is also the namesake of Butler County,
Speaker 7: Ohio and Butler County, Pennsylvania. No way, Yeah, he served
Speaker 7: in the Revolutionary War. How did he get three states
Speaker 7: to do a county for you?
Speaker 5: Now?
Speaker 2: Shure, Butler County, Pennsylvania is where Trump got shot.
Speaker 5: It is. That's why that sounds familiar. He was a
Speaker 5: major general.
Speaker 2: So the same Butler that's in That's where the Butler
Speaker 2: County where Trump got shot.
Speaker 5: Correct?
Speaker 2: What a small world.
Speaker 7: The population of about thirteen thousand people. The county seat
Speaker 7: is Morgantown. Butler County's history and early growth can be
Speaker 7: traced back to the boating traffic that used to flow
Speaker 7: on the Green River. In eighteen thirty three, the common
Speaker 7: In eighteen thirty three, the Commonwealth of Kentucky introduced a
Speaker 7: navigation system for the green and barren rivers, including locks
Speaker 7: and dams that allowed more commercial traffic to reach the county.
Speaker 5: Did they still do those?
Speaker 8: So?
Speaker 5: Remind me?
Speaker 2: I know what a damn is. A lock is what it's.
Speaker 7: Like when you raise and lower the water level.
Speaker 2: So that that is what it is. Right, they've raised
Speaker 2: the later and lower. Have you ever watched that happen.
Speaker 7: I've seen a Panama Canal thing where they do.
Speaker 2: I think that would be fascinating to watch it in
Speaker 2: real time.
Speaker 6: They have one of the Kentucky River Kentucky Lake I
Speaker 6: think down there.
Speaker 2: So they do it for like boats they raise and
Speaker 2: how long does it take?
Speaker 7: I'm not sure on the length. But over the next
Speaker 7: twenty years, Butler County's population doubled because of that, and
Speaker 7: two more towns were incorporated on like the locks, Rochester
Speaker 7: and Woodbury.
Speaker 2: I've never heard of those.
Speaker 7: Growth slow during the Civil War, where Butler County witnessed
Speaker 7: a few minor incidents, but after the war, in nineteen
Speaker 7: oh seven, former soldiers from both sides came together to
Speaker 7: create the Confederate Union Veterans Monument in front of the
Speaker 7: Butler County Courthouse in Morgantown. It's one of the only
Speaker 7: two monuments in Kentucky that revered both sides of the
Speaker 7: war instead of just one.
Speaker 2: Oh really, wait a minute, So they both are in
Speaker 2: the same.
Speaker 7: The monuments on both both of them.
Speaker 2: That's interesting because that was the part of the state
Speaker 2: that was like that was where they were battling, right,
Speaker 2: Like that was Am I correct about that? Like that
Speaker 2: part of Kentucky there were active fights.
Speaker 7: Correct, less in Butler County than maybe of the surrounding counties.
Speaker 7: But do you know that because that was in the
Speaker 7: research that they had a few minor incidents. It wasn't
Speaker 7: as much as some other places, gotcha. The Finny Hotel
Speaker 7: in Woodbury dates back to eighteen sixty seven. The hotel
Speaker 7: played an important role in the economic development of Woodbury
Speaker 7: as a river town, catering to riverboat travelers on the Green.
Speaker 2: Still there, it.
Speaker 5: Is, but it's abandoned now.
Speaker 7: By nineteen fifty the hotel no longer served travelers and
Speaker 7: had become a private residence. It is historic, but now abandoned.
Speaker 7: That is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Speaker 7: Like no one's there, correct, Yeah, people think it's haunted
Speaker 7: as well.
Speaker 2: Would bead if you had a hotel that's two hundred
Speaker 2: years old. That just sits abandoned. Can you imagine what
Speaker 2: that's like inside? Creepy?
Speaker 6: Is what's like inside?
Speaker 5: Haunting?
Speaker 7: Right there, haunted by the ghost of a little girl
Speaker 7: that local lore suggested.
Speaker 2: Was murdered there, Well, somebody was murdered.
Speaker 4: Yes.
Speaker 7: Since nineteen eighty, Morgantown has put on the Green River
Speaker 7: Catfish Festival during the week of July fourth.
Speaker 2: We've been to that. Remember we had Miss Catfish on
Speaker 2: the show.
Speaker 5: You did have Misscatfish on the show, that's right.
Speaker 2: I still remember that Mits Catfish because I asked her,
Speaker 2: I said, what are the what are what does he
Speaker 2: have to do to miss the Miss Catfish? And she said,
Speaker 2: smiling wave. I was like, well, okay, I forgot about
Speaker 2: Miss cap That was early KSR remote maybe one of
Speaker 2: the very first ones. Miss Catfish came because they have
Speaker 2: that really good restaurant.
Speaker 5: Yes, you remember, we would to.
Speaker 2: Go there every year.
Speaker 6: They don't take credit cards.
Speaker 2: Don't take credit cards. That food is so good you
Speaker 2: can still it's still open, right. It's right off the
Speaker 2: Western Kentucky Parkway, isn't it.
Speaker 6: I think we did a show there too. I think
Speaker 6: at that restaurant.
Speaker 7: Yes, uh, square, dancing, tractor shows, live music, beaty pageants,
Speaker 7: and an annual fishing tournament in which anglers fish for
Speaker 7: tagged catfish for cash.
Speaker 2: Prizes Miss Catfish Long Time.
Speaker 7: And then some people from Butler County Medal of Honor
Speaker 7: recipient Don Jay Jenkins for his actions in the Vietnam War.
Speaker 7: It is from Quality, Kentucky, which is in Butler County,
Speaker 7: an unincorporated town Pendleton.
Speaker 2: They say what they got I did to make him
Speaker 2: get the Medal of Honor.
Speaker 7: He was wounded and then went back into action. I'm
Speaker 7: not sure on the specific. Pendleton Van Diver is a
Speaker 7: legendary Kentucky fiddler and uncle of Bill Monroe. His music
Speaker 7: helped influence the sound that Monroe later developed into bluegrass.
Speaker 2: What was his name, Pendleton Van Diver.
Speaker 5: Yes, name, and you don't hear that name very often.
Speaker 7: And Claude Charles Blotch was born in Woodbury. He was
Speaker 7: the admiral who was in charge at Pearl Harbor during
Speaker 7: the attack in nineteen forty one.
Speaker 2: Well, he was in charge, so I didn't go very well.
Speaker 5: No, No, it was the.
Speaker 2: Guy was in charge.
Speaker 7: An admiral who was in charge at Pearl Harbor was
Speaker 7: from Woodbury.
Speaker 5: Wow, a lot of history.
Speaker 2: There a a lot of history there in that We
Speaker 2: got what is the name of that restaurant? Is it
Speaker 2: Country Kitchen? Country Kitchen kits exactly with the kitchen with
Speaker 2: I think it's still open.
Speaker 6: Great homemade pies if you're driving.
Speaker 2: On because you know, if you're driving on the Western
Speaker 2: Kentucky Parkway, there's nothing nothing, worst road, no offense in
Speaker 2: America for stuff. But then you get to Morgantown. It's
Speaker 2: the one exit. And if you get off and you
Speaker 2: take a rite and you go like a mile, that
Speaker 2: Country Kitchen it is awesome. I highly recommend that, Drew.
Speaker 2: It's a great pit stop on the Western Kentucky park
Speaker 2: It's still open.
Speaker 3: And their Facebook profile picture is just a picture of pie.
Speaker 2: That's all you need.
Speaker 6: I'm telling you, that's what I remember about that restaurant.
Speaker 2: I I you know what, I don't know when we're
Speaker 2: heading west again, but I will stop. That's go. That
Speaker 2: place is really really good. All right, So there's Butler County.
Speaker 2: What's next?
Speaker 7: All right, to Caldwell County we go in Western Kentucky,
Speaker 7: formed in eighteen oh nine from parts of Livingston County,
Speaker 7: named after John Caldwell, a Revolutionary War veteran who was
Speaker 7: elected the second lieutenant governor of Kentucky in eighteen oh four.
Speaker 2: And that's on the Mississippi River, right.
Speaker 5: I believe so.
Speaker 7: Yes, he died while presiding over the state Senate in
Speaker 7: his first year from inflammation of the brain. Unfortunately, the
Speaker 7: county seat is Princeton in eighteen thirty eight.
Speaker 3: Downtown that's not on the mission, No, it is this
Speaker 3: neighbor's Madisonville.
Speaker 5: This is the county over form.
Speaker 2: This is the place I wrote about in the book
Speaker 2: that had the mayor that was like twenty three years old.
Speaker 5: Remember that.
Speaker 2: I remember that he's the youngest mayor in America. Was
Speaker 2: in Princeton. It has that is a beautiful little downtown there.
Speaker 5: Yes it is.
Speaker 2: But he was They elected him like right out of
Speaker 2: college to be the mayor. Don't know what happened to
Speaker 2: that guy. That was like six years ago.
Speaker 6: I've forgotten that view.
Speaker 2: But that was Caldwell County.
Speaker 7: Oh that's better than electing a dog like many Kentucky counties.
Speaker 2: This guy Princeton's a decent, little sized town and he
Speaker 2: was the mayor.
Speaker 7: A lot going on in Princeton in eighteen thirty eight
Speaker 7: in downtown Princeton at Big Springs Park was where Cherokee
Speaker 7: Indians camp for several weeks on their forced migration west
Speaker 7: on the Trail of Tears.
Speaker 2: We went there ways, Tom and I went to that place. Yes,
Speaker 2: the Trail of Tears.
Speaker 7: Plant historic site there in the late seventeen nineties. James
Speaker 7: Ford was a respected businessman who grew up near Princeton.
Speaker 7: While known as a pillar of the community, secretly, Ford
Speaker 7: led a river piracy gang called Ford's Ferry Gang.
Speaker 2: I've heard of this. Yes, they were river pirates.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Ford and his men robbed boats on the Ohio River
Speaker 7: and he became infamous in the area. James was eventually
Speaker 7: killed by his own gang members.
Speaker 2: Well, you can't trust anybody that, so they there were
Speaker 2: pirates on the Ohio River attacking I didn't know about
Speaker 2: this boat that grew up right next, Like.
Speaker 5: That would be a really good movie.
Speaker 7: Great, But he also lived a double life. So many
Speaker 7: people thought he was this great guy.
Speaker 2: So he was just like a local businessman who was
Speaker 2: a pirate. On the night would put on an eye
Speaker 2: patch and be a pirate.
Speaker 7: I don't know about the eye patch, but at night
Speaker 7: they would go out and rob these boats.
Speaker 2: Huh okay.
Speaker 7: Also in Caldwell County. It is a core part of
Speaker 7: the historic black Patch region, famous for its dark fired
Speaker 7: and dark air cured tobacco. The area was the center
Speaker 7: of the violent black Patch Tobacco Wars from nineteen oh
Speaker 7: six to nineteen oh eight, when local farmers rebelled against
Speaker 7: a major tobacco monopoly.
Speaker 2: Have you ever read about this, No, it's one of
Speaker 2: like the Great American worker uprisings. The tobacco farmers in
Speaker 2: Kentucky and I believe maybe Tennessee. They essentially just would
Speaker 2: just revolted and like kill the owners. The black Patch
Speaker 2: Wars they went on for would you say, two years?
Speaker 2: Two years?
Speaker 5: Two years?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a fascinating part of history. There was one
Speaker 2: something similar in West Virginia which in coal mine in
Speaker 2: the coal mining area and then tobacco in Kentucky strict
Speaker 2: So the really like and they and they couldn't quell it.
Speaker 2: They would just keep coming.
Speaker 6: This all took place in Colwell County.
Speaker 2: No, it was a blot. It's a big area place.
Speaker 5: It's in the s Yeah, big area, gotcha.
Speaker 7: The Masked Vigilantes group known as the Night Riders fought
Speaker 7: against the major corporations and farmers who helped them by
Speaker 7: destroying crops, burning warehouses, and intimidation. Fighting lasted for two
Speaker 7: years before the Kentucky National Guard had to step in.

Speaker 2: I didn't know that.
Speaker 6: It's very cool.
Speaker 2: Uh CJ me and told me I did not real
Speaker 2: a bunch of you did. By the way, the guy

Speaker 2: executive of Caldwell. He's probably still in his twenties. Yes,
Speaker 2: true rising star in Caldwell County. All right, go ahead,
Speaker 2: what's what's what's your next?
Speaker 5: Yeah, continuing Caldwell County.
Speaker 7: Since nineteen twenty five, the county has been home to
Speaker 7: the University of Kentucky's College of Agriculture, with extensive experiment farms.
Speaker 7: The College of Agriculture in Princeton is a leader in
Speaker 7: horticulture and biological science in the twenties.
Speaker 2: You're saying the University of Kentucky's agriculture school is in Caldwell.
Speaker 2: That's not true.
Speaker 7: It's been the home of the University of Kentucky College
Speaker 7: of Agriculture since nineteen twenty five.
Speaker 2: I thought it was out there on Newtown Pike.
Speaker 5: These are the facts, So you know, I don't have
Speaker 5: a campuses. Maybe where the.
Speaker 6: Fields are their.
Speaker 5: Field that I could see that the experiment farms.
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, okay, all right, I can believe that.
Speaker 7: Yeah, still largely agricultural. But Caldwell County is home to
Speaker 7: the Bremner Factory, the largest private cookie and cracker cracker
Speaker 7: factory in North America.
Speaker 5: Really, I didn't know that.
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, I don't think I knew that the
Speaker 2: largest cookie factory in America's largest private cookie and cracker
Speaker 2: factory in North America. Private.
Speaker 5: What's A.
Speaker 2: I guess, so it's not publicly traded. So Brimmer? What
Speaker 2: kind of cookies are Brimmer?
Speaker 6: I'm trying to think. I don't know if I've ever
Speaker 6: heard that before. To be honest, I've never.
Speaker 5: Heard of Brimmer either.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, are they good? I would like to
Speaker 2: support Kentucky cookies? What's what kind of cookies are Brimmer?
Speaker 2: They're private, Matt, so we may not know a lot
Speaker 2: about it. Drew, you look up the Brimmer cookies. Go ahead, Billy.
Speaker 7: About three miles from Princeton, a spot on Crider Delaney
Speaker 7: Road off US sixty two West, you can find Gravity Hill.
Speaker 7: Drivers stop under a concrete overpass, shift their car into neutral,
Speaker 7: and if you take your foot off the break, your
Speaker 7: car will drift uphill.
Speaker 5: I've done this many times. You've been that I was driving.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, wait wait a minute.
Speaker 5: What what now been to Gravity Hill?
Speaker 4: Many?
Speaker 5: Many, many say to me, what happens?
Speaker 8: Uh?
Speaker 3: Like, as you said, you just put it in neutral
Speaker 3: and you're sitting there and suddenly your car just starts
Speaker 3: going up the hill.
Speaker 2: I don't believe that it does.
Speaker 7: Many have tied it to ghost stories and urban legends,
Speaker 7: but scientists have confirmed it's an illusion, an obstructed or
Speaker 7: false horizon combined with the angles of the surrounding embankments
Speaker 7: and the overpass structure trick the human eye regarding which way.
Speaker 5: Is up or down. I have a story from her.
Speaker 8: Really.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gravity hill, so you get tricked to think
Speaker 2: you're going up, but you're not. Okay, Now I want
Speaker 2: to see this, don't you. Oh, you've done it many times.
Speaker 2: I took my friend. We had a handicapped van. It
Speaker 2: was his family.
Speaker 3: It's called the H five. We took it there one
Speaker 3: time and I was driving and got a flat tire.
Speaker 3: This woman came out of nowhere in the darkness and
Speaker 3: helped us change the tire, and then we look up
Speaker 3: and she was gone.
Speaker 5: That absolutely happened. Shout out to the age five. We
Speaker 5: had all kinds of people in there, and I was
Speaker 5: the driving. I started moving up there. Yeah, she just
Speaker 5: walked out of nowhere.
Speaker 2: She just came from the darky change your tire, helped us,
Speaker 2: and your car went up there, and your car went uphill,
Speaker 2: not all in one fell swoop there.
Speaker 3: The car, I believe had already gone up the hill
Speaker 3: and we were on our way home. We went to
Speaker 3: dairy queen that night good times.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm I'm going to skims story because that did
Speaker 2: not happen. I would like to feel what you're saying,
Speaker 2: so like you, you have felt it going uphill.
Speaker 5: For being honest, it's a little disappointing.
Speaker 2: It does it does?
Speaker 3: It does seem you do feel like you're going uphill,
Speaker 3: but you're probably picturing like a mountain. It's not that steep.
Speaker 3: It's steep, but it's not. But you do feel like
Speaker 3: you're going up hill. But I could understand if it's
Speaker 3: an illusions.
Speaker 5: Move uphill that that's fair.
Speaker 6: Have you done this No, I've never heard of it before.
Speaker 5: And then the woman comes out of the woods out
Speaker 5: of nowhere.
Speaker 2: Wow, now I want to do that. We should get
Speaker 2: the youngest county judge executive yes to go and take
Speaker 2: us to go uphill, gravity hill.
Speaker 5: These the things you do when you grow in Madisonville, Kentucky.
Speaker 5: After the night.
Speaker 2: Actually think it's fascinating. I do think your story about
Speaker 2: the woman coming out of the dark wearing a gown
Speaker 2: there was.
Speaker 7: No gas and onto people of Caldwell County. I only
Speaker 7: have two, but I got two good ones.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 7: Mabel Stark is referred to as one of the world's
Speaker 7: first female tiger trainers. She eventually joined the Ringling Brothers
Speaker 7: and has gotten worldwide recognition.
Speaker 2: How she got into that, I'm not sure. How do
Speaker 2: you learn your tiger.
Speaker 5: Train Look and ask Joe exotic and uh.
Speaker 7: Martha Nelson Thomas was born in Princeton. She created doll
Speaker 7: babies who were immediately ripped off in the inspiration for
Speaker 7: Cabbage Patch kids.
Speaker 2: Oh, I bet she's mad, because there was a time

Speaker 2: have you with franch appreciate it. Hey, I'm really glad
Speaker 2: you're here. And uh, it has been awesome watching you
Speaker 2: on the TBT. Let's start with this. You've had a
Speaker 2: lot of great basketball moments. I know some of them
Speaker 2: more bigger than this one. But when you dunked that
Speaker 2: ball at the end of the game, what did that
Speaker 2: feel like?
Speaker 4: I felt amazing. I was just thankful that, you know,
Speaker 4: I made a play for my team and we was
Speaker 4: able to move on in advance. But like we were
Speaker 4: just talking about, it's very nerve breaking and ending.
Speaker 2: And do you like the mending?
Speaker 4: I love it. I love it. This gives you the
Speaker 4: opportunity to go on a run if you're the team's
Speaker 4: down or anything can happen. So he's got to stay
Speaker 4: locked in fully like.
Speaker 2: And it looked like you were going to murder that camera.
Speaker 2: I mean the other look on your face was wild.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I had to less some anger out like I
Speaker 4: was telling God, I said, I missed the three possession
Speaker 4: before that, and I was pissed off about that. So
Speaker 4: I just I really just wanted to make a play
Speaker 4: for my team at the moment, and I came through.
Speaker 2: So what is it like, Like, I know it's a
Speaker 2: summer game, and I know it's real money if you win,
Speaker 2: But what's it like just being in the atmosphere? Like
Speaker 2: you know, once the game start, you guys are intense.
Speaker 4: Yeah, war I really had a Game of Throne.
Speaker 5: Oh, big Game of Thrones.
Speaker 4: Got He's my favorite show.
Speaker 2: Who do you relate to the most Ungame of Thrones?
Speaker 4: I'll say, John Snow, you gotta.
Speaker 5: Be a target dragon.
Speaker 2: That's the dragon. You're the dragon You're not gonna be.
Speaker 4: I feel like John Snow is my favorite character. I
Speaker 4: mean John Snow is my favorite character. Just his like
Speaker 4: the way he evolved and what he had to go
Speaker 4: through coming back from the dead. You know, it's just.
Speaker 2: Well, okay, So your story is a little bit like that.
Speaker 2: I mean when you let's let's go back when you
Speaker 2: were here and it ended as you after you left Kentucky,
Speaker 2: how did you think you would look back at your
Speaker 2: time in Lexington.
Speaker 4: Not good. I think I felt like, probably years from
Speaker 4: that experience, that I probably would have the same attitude
Speaker 4: towards it.
Speaker 2: But which was what?
Speaker 4: Which was it? I didn't want to come back. It's
Speaker 4: like like a dark hole. Just the energy I had
Speaker 4: here was wasn't good at the moment, and I felt
Speaker 4: like that it would it would have stayed like that.
Speaker 4: But through the grace of God, you know, and hard
Speaker 4: work and perseverance and just me pouring my heart out,
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, and being genuine and the
Speaker 4: fans being genuine as well with me, everything worked out.
Speaker 2: When you got how did you get invited back? Like
Speaker 2: did twenty How did you end up on the team?
Speaker 2: I think it was last year.
Speaker 4: TV reached out to me right after a little the
Speaker 4: viral TikTok post that went viral that I posted, and then.
Speaker 2: For people who didn't see it, tell people what that
Speaker 2: TikTok post literally?
Speaker 4: Was it a TikTok of me? It was a picture
Speaker 4: of me and a security uniform because I was working
Speaker 4: security I think like three and a half three years ago,
Speaker 4: Like it was a moment of my life. I was hurt,
Speaker 4: I broke my toe, I couldn't play basketball at the moment,
Speaker 4: so I had to find you know, I had to
Speaker 4: find something that I could do on the side, you know. Uh,
Speaker 4: and I was working in security at a nightclub. It
Speaker 4: posted a picture and went viral. I just wanted to
Speaker 4: see what people thought of it, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: I wanted to be genuine, be transparent with people.
Speaker 2: You were acknowledging that you were having a tough time.
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, just let people.
Speaker 2: And I remember when that came a lot of people.
Speaker 2: That was my reaction was, man, I want to see
Speaker 2: good things happen for that guy. So twenty reaches out
Speaker 2: to you, what does he say?
Speaker 4: So twenty reached out to me a year before, but
Speaker 4: I was I was playing in Croatia. So he just
Speaker 4: reached out to me, like, bro, we got to make
Speaker 4: it happen this year, and I was all in. I
Speaker 4: was all in for sure.
Speaker 2: Did you have any hesitation about coming back to.
Speaker 4: No hesitation at all, because I knew what it could
Speaker 4: do for me and I knew what type of impact
Speaker 4: it would have on the people in Lexington. So I
Speaker 4: just felt like coming back last year, you know, it
Speaker 4: helped me tremendously.
Speaker 2: So you come back and that experience last year. That
Speaker 2: had to be great, right it was. I mean we
Speaker 2: ended up getting upset and losing in that game, but
Speaker 2: just you kind of being welcomed back, what did that
Speaker 2: feel like?
Speaker 4: It was? It was wonderful. I tell people this all
Speaker 4: the time, like, you know, being embraced me and supported
Speaker 4: by like a group of great fans here it's amazing.
Speaker 4: Just like it shows in the court as well, Like
Speaker 4: I get the utmost energy from the fans when I'm
Speaker 4: on the court. That's why I'm able to make the
Speaker 4: spectacular plays I make because I just I feel the energy.
Speaker 4: So I love playing here.
Speaker 2: Did did it come kind of full circle? I mean
Speaker 2: you'd had this really negative experience here to then get
Speaker 2: to have a positive experience. I mean that had to
Speaker 2: be a pretty good feeling. It's like it is kind
Speaker 2: of coming full circle in your life.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Like I said, like since last year, you know,
Speaker 4: TBT opened a lot of doors for me, and.
Speaker 2: We'll give me an example. So did you get opportunities
Speaker 2: from it? Oh?
Speaker 4: Yeah I had. I got my most I got my
Speaker 4: biggest deal to go play basketball as a professional right
Speaker 4: after TVT It was like three months after was it
Speaker 4: in China. It was in China. Yeah, so I got
Speaker 4: my deal in an NBL ended up getting hurt my
Speaker 4: third one out there. But I definitely was that's enough
Speaker 4: and able enough to, you know, fortunate enough to go
Speaker 4: out there and get an opportunity.
Speaker 2: Like I've never been. What's it like in China?
Speaker 4: It's dope. Like I feel like China is one of
Speaker 4: the most accommodating place for an athlete, besides the NBA
Speaker 4: or the EuroLeague. No good money, great basketball. I mean
Speaker 4: they want you to go out there and score thirty
Speaker 4: every game.
Speaker 2: So did you like the food?
Speaker 4: Uh? Yeah, no, the foods I kind of steered. I
Speaker 4: stayed on the Korean barbecue side. They had like a
Speaker 4: Korean barbecue buffet that you could literally go to for
Speaker 4: like ten bucks, and they had like all that.
Speaker 2: You were eating Korean barbecue like every meal.
Speaker 4: I was trying to stay on it. I was trying
Speaker 4: to stay on the safe side.
Speaker 2: Okay, So, well, I got KFC there.
Speaker 4: Usually do Like I was. I was eating KFC too.
Speaker 4: It's funny you say that, but I was getting tired
Speaker 4: of just eating.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a lot of KFC if you if you
Speaker 2: eat it all the time, so you come back this year,
Speaker 2: it's I feel like this group with with the Andrew, you, Archie, Willie,
Speaker 2: and then you got these these guys that didn't play here,
Speaker 2: but they've been part of it. I think it's been
Speaker 2: fun to watch. I mean, there was obviously the little
Speaker 2: controversy if he's Archie gonna play or not, But now
Speaker 2: that he's here, it seems like you guys have a
Speaker 2: great time together.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean we were just waited for Archer to
Speaker 4: get here, like he's a huge part of our team,
Speaker 4: and you know, like we we know what to expect
Speaker 4: from him. And I mean now that he's here, he's
Speaker 4: helping us tremendously.
Speaker 2: And you give him a hard time out losing that
Speaker 2: one on one.
Speaker 4: Nah, nah, nobody. We haven't spoken at We haven't spoken
Speaker 4: at but right now.
Speaker 2: He got fouled the whole time, like he like he
Speaker 2: should have won that they didn't call a nim foul.
Speaker 4: It's a different world of basketball, two different worlds. But
Speaker 4: like like I'm saying, we're we're super like then these
Speaker 4: these guys are, even the older guys like Willie, my god, trill,
Speaker 4: he's super lot.
Speaker 2: So tell me about Willie because we love Willy. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Willi's like he's grandpa out there, but he but he
Speaker 2: really like playing on one leg. Yeah, and like that.
Speaker 2: He's been awesome to watch.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Bro, his energy has been amazing. Uh, you know,
Speaker 4: that's like one of my vets. I played with him
Speaker 4: in the G League, So just hearing him motivated and
Speaker 4: want to go out there and literally, you know, like
Speaker 4: die out there for us. So it's like, bro, like
Speaker 4: we're right behind him and we're super stoked.
Speaker 2: So you're playing Beheim's Army. Yeah, I think somebody, maybe
Speaker 2: it was Willy said they actually run stuff. Yeah, right,
Speaker 2: really said he thought it was the team that would
Speaker 2: run stuff the most.
Speaker 5: Do you agree with that?
Speaker 4: Yeah? For sure?
Speaker 2: Did that make it more difficult?
Speaker 4: It's funny because for teams like us, like garden sets
Speaker 4: and actions like that is typically more easier because it's
Speaker 4: like we could switch everything, right, we can blow everything up.
Speaker 4: We got defenders who could this this bear, I mean
Speaker 4: like this smother or shooter if you wanted to. So
Speaker 4: I feel like I don't want to say that, like
Speaker 4: what's our weaknesses on the team online?
Speaker 2: Don't say that, don't say that.
Speaker 4: But yeah, I feel like it was it was like
Speaker 4: an even cue with that.
Speaker 2: What's it like beating Louisville? We hate Louisville. I mean,
Speaker 2: you know, may I remember this was before you hear
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago Drew got punched at the
Speaker 2: TVT game. A Louisville fan punched him in the face.
Speaker 2: This is when they spent Nstina that year. He got
Speaker 2: just jacked. That's so he's he's bled for TV I'm
Speaker 2: a victim, So it's gotta be fun beating Louisville.
Speaker 4: No, it was. It was definitely a definitely fun win
Speaker 4: for us. You know, it was some adversary through that series,
Speaker 4: but we came out on top.
Speaker 2: So, like I said, now, people tell me, at the
Speaker 2: end of these games, you stay and like talk and
Speaker 2: take pictures and give autographs to everybody.
Speaker 5: Why do you do?
Speaker 2: I mean, I know why you do that, but like,
Speaker 2: what's your thought process? Is that special for you?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Since I was a young and just one in uh,
Speaker 4: somebody around who you know had a talent or I
Speaker 4: just looked up to, I just wanted them to show
Speaker 4: me some type of attention and just you know, with
Speaker 4: the fans like them embracing me last year and just
Speaker 4: dem knowing my story and I like majority of them
Speaker 4: are really in tune with what I go through. I
Speaker 4: have the utmost respect for those guys, and I just
Speaker 4: want to show my love and my you know what
Speaker 4: I have for them.
Speaker 2: And when you say what you go through, like give
Speaker 2: an example what you're talking about.
Speaker 4: I understand all the things I've dealt with in my
Speaker 4: career as far as the UK and not me not
Speaker 4: having experience that I wanted to have here and you know,
Speaker 4: just coming back and the fans embracing me and wanted
Speaker 4: me to have a good experience here.
Speaker 2: So do you consider this like home now?
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's definitely my second home now for sure, I
Speaker 4: still have my apartment.
Speaker 2: I will say, your story and to some extent Archie too,
Speaker 2: but really probably yours the most is the thing I've
Speaker 2: liked about the TVT the most. I mean, I love
Speaker 2: that that connection has been able to happen if nothing
Speaker 2: else occurred from it, watching you and Archie and even
Speaker 2: to some extent Andrew because he took a lot of
Speaker 2: stuff here as well, watching you guys feel that love
Speaker 2: and give it back. I just think it's like, I
Speaker 2: actually think it's kind of a beautiful thing to be honest,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: Yeah, especially like I'm saying, especially after the games, like
Speaker 4: just knowing the energy the fans give you and you
Speaker 4: just want to give back and just come out there
Speaker 4: and like communicate with him and feel what the love
Speaker 4: feels like.
Speaker 2: So all right, well we're gonna take a break. I
Speaker 2: want to ask you about the game coming up Wednesday night.
Speaker 2: But first, you know, if you're a KSR listener, you
Speaker 2: know Kentucky loves talking about the weather. We had bad
Speaker 2: web c N. That was the worst lightning I've ever
Speaker 2: seen in my life.
Speaker 6: For a long time.
Speaker 2: Did you see that? Oh yeah, I mean that was
Speaker 2: like it was.
Speaker 6: Crazy, yes, all over the place.
Speaker 2: And I was thinking to myself, well, if something happens
Speaker 2: with my roof, see RC roofing.
Speaker 6: There you go.
Speaker 2: What are you laughing at, Khlil, exactly what I was
Speaker 2: thinking before long, everybody's picking sides, but with your roof,
Speaker 2: you know exactly what to look after if there's a
Speaker 2: storm or weather condition. Remember KSR listeners get a free
Speaker 2: roof inspection and can save up to one thousand dollars
Speaker 2: on a new roof.
Speaker 5: Khalil, if you need a roof.
Speaker 4: I might blow the roof.
Speaker 2: You're gonna blow the roof off. CRC Roofing and go
Speaker 2: CRC Roofing and Renovations the team you want on your roof.
Speaker 2: I know what Khalil Whitney knows it. Crccompany dot com
Speaker 2: slash KSR. We'll take a break right back to Kentucky
Speaker 2: Sports Radio. Running back Tucky Sports Radio. We were just
Speaker 2: talking during the break, Khalil, you played with Maxie and
Speaker 2: Quickly in your year.
Speaker 5: Here are you?
Speaker 2: Maxie's gonna it's one of them, maybe ten to twelve
Speaker 2: best players in the league.
Speaker 5: Did you see that coming?
Speaker 4: Definitely? Uh, there's some of the things he used to
Speaker 4: do in practice, and his work ethic is slim and
Speaker 4: none like. I just I think he will be a
Speaker 4: future Hall of Famer. I think he'll win multiple championships.
Speaker 4: I just think he has the if factor.
Speaker 2: He's a frenchise did you did you you saw that
Speaker 2: coming though?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've seen that the second week on campus. I've
Speaker 4: seen that coming.
Speaker 5: Wow.
Speaker 2: Well, he and Quickly both, I mean they both would
Speaker 2: do that little running float or you know that's that's
Speaker 2: quite a shot. Did they teach each other that?
Speaker 4: I don't know if they taught each other that, but
Speaker 4: I think it was probably a competitive thing of like
Speaker 4: who who is probably going to have the best one
Speaker 4: or yeah, finished the best.
Speaker 2: But tell me about playing for cal what's that it
Speaker 2: was like?
Speaker 4: Off the court? Cayle is an amazing guy. Like me
Speaker 4: and coach Cayles do communicate to this day. You know,
Speaker 4: he checks up on me like on the court. He
Speaker 4: wants the best from you. But at the end of
Speaker 4: the day, you got to understand it's a business. So
Speaker 4: whatever decision he made back then, when he made it,
Speaker 4: I can only respect it.
Speaker 2: Though, do you you do keep in contact with him?
Speaker 4: Yeah? Right? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Is there when you see Kentucky guys? Is there a
Speaker 2: Kentucky kind of brotherhood thing of guys even if you
Speaker 2: didn't play with him, that you feel a connection to him?
Speaker 4: Uh? Yeah, with with some of the guys for sure.
Speaker 4: For me, definitly the guys that's been in tune and
Speaker 4: some of the guys I played with, it's a little different, definitely,
Speaker 4: like John Wall. You know, me and John Wall was close,
Speaker 4: Like going through my pre draft in Miami, I was
Speaker 4: locked in with him so and then Anthony Davis being
Speaker 4: from Chicago just having that pipeline and DeAndre Liggins being
Speaker 4: from Chicago and Tyler Ulis. Yeah, yeah, got a lot
Speaker 4: of guys. So definitely.
Speaker 2: What what's John Hood like as a coach?
Speaker 4: Great coach? Is he really great coach? Even even better,
Speaker 4: even better person.
Speaker 2: I'm impressed by how locked in everybody is when he's
Speaker 2: when he's coaching.
Speaker 4: He's Uh, he carries an energy that like I've only
Speaker 4: had from two of my coaches. And really, yeah, he
Speaker 4: gets the best out of you. Great extra news. Guy
Speaker 4: can draw up a hell of a play like you
Speaker 4: guys seen what the first.
Speaker 2: Game against against Louisville.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and uh, he drew that up and we we
Speaker 4: we made it. We played it to perfection. So John
Speaker 4: Hood is one of the big as reasons we're being successful,
Speaker 4: right all right.
Speaker 2: So now you're gonna play Kansas tomorrow night. What times
Speaker 2: of game seven, seven o'clock tickets on sale? I think
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a great crowd. This is for the
Speaker 2: Alumni Championship. If you win, you're only one game away
Speaker 2: from the two million dollars Kansas be fighting though, bought
Speaker 2: a lot last night to what's going on there? Are
Speaker 2: you gonna have to hey, you're gonna have to be
Speaker 2: ready for them.
Speaker 4: I don't know, man, We're going to keep up our professionalism.
Speaker 4: We're here for the grand prize.
Speaker 2: So do you what do you know about that group?
Speaker 2: I mean, it's the it's the two winningness programs of
Speaker 2: all time going against each other.
Speaker 4: I mean, it's not gonna be easy. No game has
Speaker 4: been easy in this tournament. I mean for the amount
Speaker 4: of money you're playing where it's going to be passion
Speaker 4: out there for sure, like a lot of passion and emotions.
Speaker 5: Am I right?
Speaker 2: It's like winner take all, isn't it. I Mean that's
Speaker 2: that's kind of in and of itself cool that you
Speaker 2: get this, like somebody's taken all of it and the
Speaker 2: other one's getting nothing. Nothing.
Speaker 5: Come into this whole month and don't know you get anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what I'm kind of like, I'm not surprised guys
Speaker 2: do it. But why do you think why do guys
Speaker 2: sign up for this knowing like only one team is
Speaker 2: gonna win the money?
Speaker 4: I think one it's a it's a comfortability thing, knowing
Speaker 4: like oh, if you get it, like you could chill
Speaker 4: for a second, if you if you're actively pooping or
Speaker 4: you just don't want to take a job that plays
Speaker 4: a factor in it. And also like this with this situation,
Speaker 4: my situations, like we're playing for Kentucky, Like we're gonna
Speaker 4: have a good chance of winning, so it's like, why not,
Speaker 4: you know, come out here and give it your all.
Speaker 4: And that's what that's the problem I have with some
Speaker 4: players who don't show up. It's like, you know, we're
Speaker 4: the favorites, we have a good team, we have a
Speaker 4: great fan fan base, is like, why not show up
Speaker 4: and get the job done?
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you were talking to players who maybe haven't
Speaker 2: played yet, because we're gonna have a whole new generation
Speaker 2: of guys who will be eligible over the next few years,
Speaker 2: would you encourage them to do it?
Speaker 4: Yeah, just knowing just giving back just for the fans. Uh.
Speaker 4: You also get to win some money and when you
Speaker 4: come back, they show Matt love. So it's like it's
Speaker 4: a win win situation.
Speaker 2: I mean, Mario there's basically on the team as much
Speaker 2: like we do all think of Mario every time he's
Speaker 2: out there dancing in the games, like you are.
Speaker 4: Bro, He's super energetic, just like we are, and that's
Speaker 4: why we feed off each other. Bro, Like it's what
Speaker 4: we do.
Speaker 2: You played against the group that's gonna be the team
Speaker 2: next year, right, did you all play?
Speaker 8: What?
Speaker 2: What? What are they like? We haven't gotten to see him.
Speaker 4: Uh, they're good, They're good. Yeah. I think back got
Speaker 4: a great group of guards. Lymph is definitely their calling card. Defense.
Speaker 4: Reno is definitely definitely improved.
Speaker 2: The kid uh zoom Diallo and.
Speaker 4: Zoom Diallo super hocky, super like speedy guard and get downhill,
Speaker 4: make plays. And the kid at Hawthorn his braiden braiden. Yeh.
Speaker 2: You like him?
Speaker 4: Yeah, he put on some weight. I feel like he
Speaker 4: definitely can be an X factor for his team.
Speaker 2: We like that.
Speaker 5: That's good, that's good info. Is it true that Pope
Speaker 5: put the full court press on you all?
Speaker 4: And like he did? You like?
Speaker 2: Chill out, man, We're just.
