Speaker 1: here soon. They got all these carnival and food vendors
Speaker 1: lined up. These open at ten o'clock, Shannon, So it
Speaker 1: looks like we're about to have a good time.
Speaker 3: Which when you're going for you going for a funnel cake,
Speaker 3: you get the hot dogs over here, the deep fried oreos.
Speaker 3: That sounds good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not normally a deep fried guy, but I
Speaker 1: got to indulge and get a deep fried.
Speaker 2: Twinkie, right.
Speaker 1: I mean I've only only eate one at every game
Speaker 1: that I run a broadcast for.
Speaker 3: If you're willing to eat at COVID twinkie that we
Speaker 3: have in our studio that's been in there for five years,
Speaker 3: I think you got to get a deep fried twinkie.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 1: And thank you to Tony. You just keep sending me
Speaker 1: boxes of ho hose and twinkies to the studio.
Speaker 2: Shannon. I'm gonna be fat the next time we come
Speaker 2: out to the Mountain Laurel Festival.
Speaker 1: But last night, Shannon, the dude stayed at what was
Speaker 1: at the State Park resort.
Speaker 3: Yeah, last night, how was it? It was nice? Yeah?
Speaker 3: I got here about midnight, drove up after OVW, so
Speaker 3: it was a long three hour drive for me. But
Speaker 3: you know, you don't really get to see the beauty
Speaker 3: of this part of the state when you're driving at night.
Speaker 3: But this morning, I'll wake up and you get to
Speaker 3: see the mountains and the sun's coming out now it's
Speaker 3: warming up out here. So it's gonna be a really good,
Speaker 3: really good day. Hopefully a good weekend here too for everybody.
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
Speaker 1: KSR will be here a little later today at ten o'clock.
Speaker 1: The centerpiece of the festival, Shannon, is the Queen's coronation,
Speaker 1: and that's held Saturday. Also Miss Kentucky's going to be
Speaker 1: here leading in the parade, Shannon. So there's a lot
Speaker 1: going on here in the Mountain Laurel Fest.
Speaker 3: Now is it true what Matt said yesterday? Or was
Speaker 3: he just making this up? Were you? It's tradition, I guess,
Speaker 3: to throw like somebody into a lake.
Speaker 1: Somebody's gonna have to confirm that for us, because I
Speaker 1: don't get the details.
Speaker 2: True, if you're throwing somebody in.
Speaker 3: The lake, Oh you shaking his head? Yes, okay, Okay,
Speaker 3: Well can we.
Speaker 1: Throw Shannon in the lake or does it have to
Speaker 1: be like somebody specific?
Speaker 3: I got somewhere to be after this, We're gonna throw Ryan.
Speaker 2: Oh, he always in the somewhere to be.
Speaker 3: We'll throw Ryan in the lake. He's got a past
Speaker 3: of you know, jumping in lakes. We'll just throw him
Speaker 3: in the one.
Speaker 1: Speaking of Ryan, Mark Pope during his interview with Matt
Speaker 1: Jones said, the other day, I'm surprised Ryan still has
Speaker 1: his shirt on, and I think we all were at
Speaker 1: some point.
Speaker 2: But what did you think about Matt's interview with.
Speaker 3: Mark Pope the other day, Shannon, There's a lot of
Speaker 3: different things to take away, he commented on Travis Perry.
Speaker 3: He was talking about the Kentucky Global Robbery. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: you know right now, it's and I agree with that.
Speaker 3: You know, when we had Patino, when we had as
Speaker 3: the coaches at Kentucky and Louisville, that was a very
Speaker 3: heat at Robberry, maybe the biggest one in college basketball.
Speaker 3: And now you got Pat Kelsey and you got Mark Pope,
Speaker 3: and the guys just are so friendly and you know,
Speaker 3: respect each other so much. I agree with Matt, we
Speaker 3: got to spice it up a little bit. I don't
Speaker 3: know that that's gonna happen, though, I feel like both
Speaker 3: guys are just really nice guys. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I did like how he goes right after Matt asked
Speaker 1: that question, Pat Kelsey, I hate that guy. He immediately
Speaker 1: goes into the buying and yeah, sarcast I hate.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Did you like how the interview like stopped mid sentence
Speaker 2: three or four times?
Speaker 3: Shannon? I always thought that was a nice touch to
Speaker 3: it too. What do you mean to stop stop midcenter?
Speaker 1: Well, like we did, had to fit a what a
Speaker 1: fall into like like fifty minutes.
Speaker 3: So you're referring to your your editing that you you
Speaker 3: chopped up this, And I didn't know how it was
Speaker 3: going to end, right because I'm listening as as the
Speaker 3: producer of the show. I'm listening to it for the
Speaker 3: first time like everybody else, and I see that, you know,
Speaker 3: the clock's ticking down, it's about to get the zero,
Speaker 3: and I know I'm about to talk, but then the
Speaker 3: sentence just gets cut off midway through.
Speaker 1: So well, not just the sentence. Matt is pouring his
Speaker 1: heart out, Oh yeah, pope.
Speaker 3: The end of the show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's like, show.
Speaker 1: What you've done in for Kentucky in this fan base
Speaker 1: is and then you start hearing that music and you
Speaker 1: gotta get cut off.
Speaker 3: We got to work on your math skills because you
Speaker 3: gave me a minute extra of content, but the show
Speaker 3: was over a minute before and I still had another
Speaker 3: minute of Matt pouring his heart out to Pope, and
Speaker 3: it felt a little insensitive, but I had to cut
Speaker 3: off Matt and in the show, yeah with him talking.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I I'll take responsibility, but I do
Speaker 1: not apologize Shannon. But we'll get better at that. The
Speaker 1: full interview is up if you want to listen to it.
Speaker 1: He did say a couple of things that stood out
Speaker 1: to me. He said at one point, he said, all
Speaker 1: these college basketball players are probably making more than their
Speaker 1: parents at this point. So if you kids out here
Speaker 1: are looking for a career path, just go into college sports.
Speaker 1: I mean, with all this nil and the new landscape,
Speaker 1: you could be making more than your parents.
Speaker 3: Here someday, no doubt. I mean, right now, there's never
Speaker 3: been a better time in history than to be a
Speaker 3: college athlete. Yeah right. I mean some of these guys
Speaker 3: making lucrative deals and with no guardrails on it. I mean,
Speaker 3: there's no limit as to what you can make. So
Speaker 3: you know, if you're a high school senior, high school junior,
Speaker 3: I would be working really hard to get a good
Speaker 3: scholarship and go to a school that's got a ton
Speaker 3: of nie own money.
Speaker 1: That's right, never been a better time now. Mark Pope
Speaker 1: also said that last season was a failure for him
Speaker 1: in Kentucky. Do you agree with that, Shannon? I mean,
Speaker 1: ultimately you want to win the national championship, But do
Speaker 1: you see last year as a failure Nolentucky?
Speaker 3: No, I would say it's a success and really overachieved
Speaker 3: for what he had. And you know, we talked about
Speaker 3: how quickly he had to put together a roster and
Speaker 3: a coaching staff and you know, to go as far
Speaker 3: as they did in the tournament. I don't know how
Speaker 3: you call that a failure, but I understand like what
Speaker 3: Mark Pope's doing. I mean, he's a smart guy, right,
Speaker 3: and he's a very likable guy. And you know, also,
Speaker 3: I would say just the interview itself was very lighthearted.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't see Cala Perry taking criticism for Matt Like,
Speaker 3: hey man, you say the word beautiful way too many times.
Speaker 3: Do you know how many times you say the were beautiful? Like,
Speaker 3: I don't think you could get away with with with
Speaker 3: joking with CALIPERI like that the way that Pope takes
Speaker 3: I'm just.
Speaker 2: Trying to think how cow would have taken that.
Speaker 1: He probably just stood up and left, you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: he probably would have just stood up.
Speaker 2: And left at that point.
Speaker 3: But to your point, though, no, I don't think it
Speaker 3: was a failure at all. I mean, but I think
Speaker 3: that's probably what fans want to hear. Don't you think
Speaker 3: it's just national championship or bust every year?
Speaker 2: Oh it's a little coach speaker, right, Yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean you've had eight titles in the entire existence
Speaker 3: of Kentucky basketball. Eight. Yeah, So if you think that
Speaker 3: it's a failure when you don't win the national title,
Speaker 3: then more times than not you're gonna have failure. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you're not.
Speaker 1: You can't look at it like that, Like you've got
Speaker 1: to be able to build off of every single year.
Speaker 1: Now maybe more years or more failures than others. Maybe
Speaker 1: when you lose in the first round of the NCAA tournament,
Speaker 1: but well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you lose to Saint Peter's and you lose
Speaker 3: to Oakland, that's a failure.
Speaker 1: Like as a two seed, you know you're losing these
Speaker 1: big games, so it's you know, you can ultimately fail.
Speaker 2: But I think Mark Pope with a little coach speak there.
Speaker 1: But you know, while it was very lighthearted, there were
Speaker 1: some serious moments talking about the victims of the tornado recently.
Speaker 1: And also he knows what it means to walk his
Speaker 1: family back into upp Arena many years after they graduate.
Speaker 1: And I think that's probably one of the best parts
Speaker 1: of Pope is that he's translated to that to his
Speaker 1: guys over these last year.
Speaker 3: So don't you think, yeah, yeah, and he gets it.
Speaker 3: I mean, when you have that position at Kentucky, when
Speaker 3: you're sitting in that seat as the head coach at Kentucky,
Speaker 3: it's more than just a coach of a basketball team, right,
Speaker 3: You're as representative of the entire state of Kentucky and ambassador,
Speaker 3: you know, a guy that is expected to go around
Speaker 3: and do things like that, to be quite honest with you,
Speaker 3: So in Caliperry was great at that too. Yeah, but
Speaker 3: Mark Pope is great at it as well.
Speaker 2: Yeah. A five nine two eight oh two two eight seven.
Speaker 1: If you'd like to join the show today, maybe you've
Speaker 1: been to the Kentucky Mountain Laurel Festival. We'd love to
Speaker 1: hear from yous A nice little drive Shannon coming in.
Speaker 1: I know what it feels like to be Shannon the
Speaker 1: dude waking up at five thirty this week.
Speaker 3: Yeah, right before we went on the air, I go, well, Billy,
Speaker 3: you all right, master, seem like you're a little down,
Speaker 3: like it's something bothering you. You're going No, it was
Speaker 3: just a long drive here, I go. First of all,
Speaker 3: it was a three hour drive for me. It was
Speaker 3: a two hour drive for you from Lexington. I said, well,
Speaker 3: what time did you leave? You said what six fifteen?
Speaker 3: Six fifteen? Said well, what time did you wake up?
Speaker 3: You said five thirty. I said, welcome to bib.
Speaker 1: Welcome to your life. You do that every single day.
Speaker 1: The problem is, I know our guys Drew and Ryan
Speaker 1: and Mario are probably listening to this right now. They
Speaker 1: don't want to carpool with me anymore, Shannon, and I
Speaker 1: don't think it's just the beaver Nuggets thing and the
Speaker 1: BUCkies situation.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: They they want to sleep in a little bit longer.
Speaker 3: Sure, yeah, I mean you gotta be here an extra
Speaker 3: hour early to do this pre show with me. I
Speaker 3: know that's where it goes.
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 1: H So we're gonna talk about a few things today.
Speaker 1: We've got some fun stuff on the docket. But you know,
Speaker 1: you can't help but be excited about Kentucky basketball after
Speaker 1: Mark Pope says stuff like that.
Speaker 2: So we've had a.
Speaker 1: Lot of things planned. Again, give us call eight five
Speaker 1: nine two eight h two two eight seven. We'll take
Speaker 1: an early break here and be right back here on
Speaker 1: the show. Before the show. It is the KSR pre Show.
Speaker 1: All right, welcome back. It is the KSR pre Show.
Speaker 1: Starting to become a beautiful day out here. Yeah, in Pineville,
Speaker 1: Kentucky at the Kentucky Mountain Laurel Festival, an event that's
Speaker 1: often called America's best outdoor beauty pageant.
Speaker 3: Wow, Oh well, I'm sorry, I gotta miss that. Are
Speaker 3: you gonna stick around for it and maybe jump on
Speaker 3: the tea cups? Or you're not getting me on the
Speaker 3: tea cups? What's your favorite carnival ride? If I said, okay,
Speaker 3: you got a golden ticket, which one you go into first?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 1: I try to avoid the ones that they build on site,
Speaker 1: you know, talking about the Yeah, like, what do.
Speaker 3: You mean that's every think here? What was it?
Speaker 2: The fireball? Is that what it's called?
Speaker 1: Or the ring of fire when it goes completely around
Speaker 1: I mean twelve year old Billy was freaking out on
Speaker 1: that thing.
Speaker 3: I'm more of a scrambler guy, you know, trambled on
Speaker 3: the ground, but it kind of goes everywhere.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's about the one that you can guarantee that
Speaker 1: is going to keep you safe.
Speaker 3: Just make sure you don't have a mimosa before you
Speaker 3: get on.
Speaker 1: That that and make sure your ear drums are going
Speaker 1: to be blown out because that music on the scrambler
Speaker 1: is going to be loud?
Speaker 2: Or am I thinking of the Himalaya, Shannon?
Speaker 3: The Himalaya is the thing where it goes around. Yeah,
Speaker 3: the scramblers where it goes like. You can't see this
Speaker 3: because I'm making motions with my hands.
Speaker 2: With the scrambler goes Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well you can visualize that. Most people know what
Speaker 3: this is.
Speaker 1: There's also the one that spins around and you go
Speaker 1: up against the wall.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you know what I'm trying on that one.
Speaker 3: It's like the alien ship, right, I think.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's what. It just spins like that.
Speaker 3: I'm not getting on that one either. Now I'm gonna
Speaker 3: tell you that. Uh middles Burrel's rock station just came
Speaker 3: through here a minute ago.
Speaker 2: Oh and you were extremely jealous and I was.
Speaker 3: Like, wow, look at their look at their vehicle, like
Speaker 3: their vehicle had flames on it and had Billy f
Speaker 3: Gibbons from zz Top and Steven Tyler from Errol Smith
Speaker 3: on it. And I look down at ours and I'm
Speaker 3: driving driving like a soccer mom van. iHeartRadio on it,
Speaker 3: and I'm going, man like, why can't Why does Middlesburl's
Speaker 3: Rock station have a cooler vehicle than we do? We
Speaker 3: got to step up our ve.
Speaker 1: Listen to you crapping on the station vehicle. You're getting
Speaker 1: to drive all across the stay.
Speaker 3: I don't have Billy Gibbons on my car. I don't
Speaker 3: have Steven Tyler and flames shooting all over the back
Speaker 3: in the hood of the car. I mean, they have
Speaker 3: an awesome rock vehicle and.
Speaker 1: That is an awesome wrap on that car. Yeah, I mean, Shannon,
Speaker 1: I don't know if they have it in the budget.
Speaker 1: We just got Plinko boards in the office, so we.
Speaker 3: We did have one like that. By the way, what
Speaker 3: the QMF van had flames and stuff all over it,
Speaker 3: But you know that was like ten years ago and
Speaker 3: then they just let it go.
Speaker 2: No, we still have it. Daniel drives it around yeah,
Speaker 2: and it's all faded.
Speaker 3: That's what I mean. They yet to go. They didn't.
Speaker 3: They didn't maintain the thing.
Speaker 2: No, it's unbelievable what it looks like.
Speaker 3: Now, did you play Plinko, because we're talking yesterday about Plinko?
Speaker 3: I did.
Speaker 1: I did play Franco. There's actually a little button. It
Speaker 1: plays the music. Duh duh, dues it does. They've got
Speaker 1: two in the Louisville building. I was there yesterday, Shannon.
Speaker 3: But the thing is like three foot tall.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's tiny.
Speaker 3: That's false advertisement. It is when you see the thing
Speaker 3: of Plinko, I think Plinko like you know, you got
Speaker 3: to get on the stairs and climb up and drop
Speaker 3: the Plinko boards down, and you know it's like you
Speaker 3: should come with one of Barker's beauties. But no, with anything.
Speaker 2: They come with the Barker beauty.
Speaker 3: Yeah, none of that. I mean. Then you get the
Speaker 3: thing in the box and it's this, it's three foot tall.
Speaker 1: It's the spirit that counts, Shannon. And if you're ever
Speaker 1: going to become a game show host, this is how
Speaker 1: you start.
Speaker 2: I think you have to start hosting the Plinko of
Speaker 2: the Nights at the Louisville building.
Speaker 3: The tiny games, the tiny games for tiny people.
Speaker 1: We were talking about music there for a second. I
Speaker 1: had a music store. I wanted to run by you.
Speaker 1: You're our resident music guy. All American regis as a
Speaker 1: band I've I liked in the past, in the early
Speaker 1: two thousands, but they've got a new approach when it
Speaker 1: comes to touring. They were doing a house party tour.
Speaker 1: Fans can submit an event or a venue and the
Speaker 1: All American Rejects will come to that event or venue.
Speaker 1: I've seen some videos from these. It looks kind of awesome, Shannon.
Speaker 1: If you've got a fraternity or I mean they've gone
Speaker 1: to I guess they went to Green Bay and did
Speaker 1: a show before Finals week.
Speaker 2: They did a show in a field in Iowa.
Speaker 1: So I mean, if you've got a venue, maybe the
Speaker 1: All American Rejects will come to their tour there.
Speaker 3: It's awesome. It's also brilliant. I mean, with everybody now
Speaker 3: with social media, they get on TikTok and they go viral.
Speaker 3: Because All American Rejects showed up at their backyard barbecue,
Speaker 3: pretty amazing, right, So I think it's a brilliant marketing
Speaker 3: on their part and who knows. I mean, they could
Speaker 3: just pop up in anybody's city. I don't think they
Speaker 3: announce it until they're just gonna show up, right.
Speaker 2: It was like it was the day of that they
Speaker 2: announced it.
Speaker 1: So I think that creates an anticipation and excitement of
Speaker 1: a pop up show, right.
Speaker 3: You submit it. American rejects play like you.
Speaker 1: Know, the Louisville Building. You know, we did have Mason
Speaker 1: Ramsey come all those years ago.
Speaker 3: We used to have like, you know, once a month
Speaker 3: at least, there'd be somebody coming in, like a big
Speaker 3: rock band coming to town. They'd come in and do like
Speaker 3: an acoustic performance like.
Speaker 2: Two plug session.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, those are the good old days of radio,
Speaker 3: back when we had cool Stone.
Speaker 1: It was like right after the video the kids in
Speaker 1: Walmart yodeling and he walks into iHeart the other day
Speaker 1: and I'm like, what, Mason Ramsey here, let me stop
Speaker 1: what I'm doing and watch. This was yodel for forty
Speaker 1: five minutes.
Speaker 2: It was incredible.
Speaker 3: You were starstruck by Mason rams I was, wow, what
Speaker 3: does that tell you about me? Shannon? You're easily impressed,
Speaker 3: I guess. So here's something that will impress yodeling Walmar.

Speaker 1: Speaking of the NBA, can we talk about Shake Guilders
Speaker 1: Alexander for a second, because he is the MVP. The
Speaker 1: Thunder go up two oh last night. But I gotta
Speaker 1: be honest, I would hate to play against shake Guilders Alexander.
Speaker 1: He looks like one of the most annoying players in
Speaker 1: the NBA. Do you know what I mean by this?
Speaker 1: Like drawing fouls and like kind of rubbing into people,
Speaker 1: And I mean, he's just a master of being able
Speaker 1: to get to the free throw line. But at one point,
Speaker 1: one of the Timberwolves guys just shoved him like he
Speaker 1: was just mad. He's already going to the ground, he
Speaker 1: just shoves him. I can feel the frustration from the
Speaker 1: Timberwolves playing check.
Speaker 3: Kind of like when we play Tennessee every year, They've
Speaker 3: always got one of those guys that just gets under
Speaker 3: your skin a little bit, right, and Shay's kind of
Speaker 3: become that in the NBA. I feel, I completely understand
Speaker 3: what you're saying, But I mean that it's also small
Speaker 3: because he's so quick, he can he can do those
Speaker 3: types of things where he does get under your skin
Speaker 3: and then he frustrates the the you know, his defender.
Speaker 3: Next thing, you know, he's drawn fouls out of frustration.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know that's part of the art of
Speaker 1: playing in the NBA, right, being able to get the
Speaker 1: ref to make a call. But I mean, I don't
Speaker 1: think the rest of the NBA likes to play Shay
Speaker 1: in the thunder because they they're a good defensive team
Speaker 1: and this guy has drawn fouls left and right.
Speaker 2: Now, who are the most like annoying players that Kentucky's
Speaker 2: had in the past, Shannon, Oh, Kentucky players.
Speaker 3: Our players are annoying.
Speaker 2: They're never annoying. They don't get under people's skin.
Speaker 3: No, come on, now, we can name plenty in the SEC.
Speaker 3: But if you're talking like Kentucky, I mean I could
Speaker 3: see where people would think that. Last year kerk Crease,
Speaker 3: it was that type of guy.
Speaker 1: That's exactly what I'm I'm asking for. Kirk Crease A
Speaker 1: lance Ware was a guy that would get in your face.
Speaker 1: He'd play eight minutes, but he may get five fouls
Speaker 1: during those eight minutes, and he'd bring a little energy.
Speaker 3: Now, the name that comes to mind for like just
Speaker 3: SEC like the most. Again, there's a big, long list
Speaker 3: you could have of annoying players throughout the years, but
Speaker 3: I don't think that anybody comes close. I feel like
Speaker 3: there's there's a level for everybody that was going, and
Speaker 3: then there's a tier alone at the top of the mountain.
Speaker 3: Was it Ole? Miss Ole Miss player Marshall Henders. That's it.
Speaker 3: There's there's nobody I think that even comes close to
Speaker 3: being as obnoxious as he was.
Speaker 1: One of the most electric atmospheres I've been in when
Speaker 1: I was a college student was when he came to Western.
Speaker 1: I think it was Old Miss coming to Western, and
Speaker 1: I mean after every shot He's like talking to the crowd,
Speaker 1: every single shot.
Speaker 3: That he made.
Speaker 1: But you know what, that's what makes sports fun, right villains,
Speaker 1: you know, hating people at times, you know, rooting against
Speaker 1: dynasties like Mahomes or Tom Brady. So uh shay maybe
Speaker 1: one of those people that you hate in sports. Eight
Speaker 1: five nine two eight zero two to eight seven. Speaking
Speaker 1: of a little bit more sports, we got big news
Speaker 1: yesterday that the College Football Playoff is going to change
Speaker 1: their seating. So instead of Boise State in Arizona State
Speaker 1: getting that first round by Shannon, they're just going to
Speaker 1: do seating straight into what it is in the college
Speaker 1: football rankings.
Speaker 3: Do you think that's the right move? I kind of
Speaker 3: like that. Yeah, make everybody play the same amount of games.
Speaker 1: Right now, A conference winner like Arizona State in Boise State,
Speaker 1: you know, still get in, but they're not gonna be
Speaker 1: one of those get a first round by like they
Speaker 1: were before.
Speaker 3: And you know that. I mean that also opens it
Speaker 3: up for potential upsets. You're not going to see that
Speaker 3: nearly as much as you would in college basketball in
Speaker 3: the NCAA tournament, but at least the opportunities there for
Speaker 3: a smaller school that's, you know, the last seed in
Speaker 3: to knock off the top seed.
Speaker 1: Well, like Texas losing the SEC championship game, they still
Speaker 1: are a top four theoretically with this seeding compared to
Speaker 1: last year when they weren't. It also allows Notre Dame
Speaker 1: to be able to get a top four seed when
Speaker 1: they're not in a conference.
Speaker 3: So I hear people say, well, that's never gonna happen.
Speaker 3: You're never going to have the last seed knock off
Speaker 3: the one seed. And we thought that about college basketball
Speaker 3: for years, right, Oh come on, yeah, and a little
Speaker 3: team called Maryland Baltimore County you might remember, once knocked
Speaker 3: off Virginia and then we had could never say, well,
Speaker 3: sixteen could never be to one. So could it happen
Speaker 3: in college football? Sure it could?
Speaker 1: So where do we stop though? Like we're at twelve
Speaker 1: right now? You think it goes to fourteen sixteen sixteen.
Speaker 1: I saw a mock forty team playoff the other day
Speaker 1: and Kentucky was still not in the forty team playoff.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's a little demoralizing when you're not
Speaker 1: even in that still.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, when you were projected to win four games,
Speaker 3: you're you're not gonna be in the top two hundred.
Speaker 2: Look at her flying by.
Speaker 3: Look out, Wow, I need to get one of those,
Speaker 3: I know, to hover around.
Speaker 1: Right, I mean, you could have the station vehicle and
Speaker 1: then just hover around on that afterwards.
Speaker 3: Her huve around is nicely more nicely decorated than my
Speaker 3: jeep I'm dropping here on.
Speaker 2: It's a better looking vehicle than the jeep that you've been.
Speaker 3: Your hub around had flames coming out of the side
Speaker 3: of it, just like the Middlesburl Rock vehicle eight two
Speaker 3: eight h two to a faster than my vehicle.
Speaker 2: Stop it.
Speaker 3: Somebody put a speedometer on her, I mean like a
Speaker 3: radar gun. She actually breaking her ball there ilegally go
Speaker 3: on a sidewalk in Pineville.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but have you ever ridden those like
Speaker 1: bird scooter Shanning Oh, gotten on one of those things?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta be careful, you o face plant, and
Speaker 3: that is a.
Speaker 1: Face plant a turned ankle. I mean, it's just a
Speaker 1: recipe for disaster on those things, especially when you're getting
Speaker 1: out of the bar at two in the morning.
Speaker 3: Franklin, Oh, Drew's made it here. What's he got? He
Speaker 3: gave me a Kentucky's Mountain Laurel Festival program. Look at
Speaker 3: this from nineteen seventy two. Wow, ow, I gotta tweet
Speaker 3: that out. That's amazing.
Speaker 1: This is the ninety fourth Kentucky Mountain Laurel Festival. So
Speaker 1: it's been going on for quite a while. What's in
Speaker 1: the program, Shannon? I mean, what were they doing back
Speaker 1: in night?
Speaker 3: Well, back in nineteen seventy two. Today's a Friday, so
Speaker 3: let's go back to Friday, May twenty sixth How many
Speaker 3: years ago was nineteen seventy two? Oh, you're gonna ask
Speaker 3: me to do math?
Speaker 1: Fifty three years, thirty forty fifth, eighty three, Yeah.
Speaker 3: Fifty three years, fifty three years ago. Today you had
Speaker 3: the qualifying round of the seventh annual Mountain Laurel Golf Classic.
Speaker 3: Oh a mine Mountain State Resort Park golf Course, which
Speaker 3: is just where I was. Would you like to take
Speaker 3: a guess what the entrance fee is, Like, what's a
Speaker 3: you play a lot of golf. What's a normal entrance
Speaker 3: fee today?
Speaker 2: Well, is it a weekday or a weekend?
Speaker 3: Shannon?
Speaker 1: If you're asking me, it's probably around seventy five to
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty.
Speaker 3: It is a good rain. Well, back in nineteen seventy two,
Speaker 3: the entrance fee was twelve dollars and fifteen twelve.
Speaker 2: Listen to this. Twelve dollars.
Speaker 1: You know how much actually I played. I went to
Speaker 1: the Louisville Golf Club. The they charged me one thirty one.
Speaker 1: Oh my hell wow, Shannon, So you're saying twelve to
Speaker 1: get on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you'd have to pay me one hundred and thirty
Speaker 3: dollars to go play golf. It's a nice course.
Speaker 1: So after I get done qualifying for the golf tournament, Shannon,
Speaker 1: is there any things that I could see back in nineteen.
Speaker 3: Seventy Well, you had the band concert. After that, then
Speaker 3: you had some fishing, some hiking and sight seeing. Then
Speaker 3: you had a reception, and then you had the director's dinner.
Speaker 3: So that's what was going on in nineteen seventy two
Speaker 3: right here at the Mountain Laurel Fest, well.
Speaker 1: Known as America's best outdoor beauty pageant. There is going
Speaker 1: to be somebody that's crowned queen and adorned with a
Speaker 1: handmade crown of Mountain Laurel Flowers. So some of the
Speaker 1: most beautiful women in the Commonwealth of Kentucky going to
Speaker 1: be here competing for that crown, and Shannon the Dude's
Speaker 1: going to be leaving for another remote right after this, right.
Speaker 3: That's right. I got to go to Sugar Days. I
Speaker 3: don't know if anybody knows what this is. It's at
Speaker 3: the Kentucky Horse Park and it's two hours away. My
Speaker 3: remote starts at two o'clock. So I'm telling you the
Speaker 3: second like, if anybody wants to get pictures, I would
Speaker 3: be glad to do it. We'll have to do it
Speaker 3: throughout the show, but I've got to pack this stuff
Speaker 3: up and immediately get in my uncool iHeart vehicle and
Speaker 3: get to the Kentucky Horse Park where they're gonna be
Speaker 3: doing this. I don't it's like a Mortar Day. Sugar Days,
Speaker 3: it's like a Mommortal Day event that's going on all
Speaker 3: weekend long at the All Tech Arena in Lexington.
Speaker 2: So you walk in, they give you a sugar cube
Speaker 2: or something like that.
Speaker 3: I mean, they got me in a chomp on it.
Speaker 3: They got me in the main cave. So they got
Speaker 3: bourbon tasting, they got cigars, they got like all this
Speaker 3: manly stuff. Right, But then they've also got something we
Speaker 3: were talking about yesterday, blue light and red light therapy.
Speaker 3: And I know what the differences between blue and red
Speaker 3: light therapy.
Speaker 1: Well, you're gonna have to figure out for us. Maybe
Speaker 1: a little cards and we got therapy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got you gotta get blue light therapy, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can't get the red light. I got your
Speaker 1: T shirts in the car, so we're good there. And
Speaker 1: Nancy's little miniatures are gonna be there too. You even
Speaker 1: got to make sure you get a picture of Nancy's
Speaker 1: miniatures and that make sure that they're not X rated.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll make sure that. For anybody who remembers that
Speaker 3: at the Kentucky State Fair last was it last year
Speaker 3: that happened?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: I don't remember, But we've had some great stories at
Speaker 1: the State That's where I had got my twenty dollars
Speaker 1: paycheck that one year too.
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right.
Speaker 2: So we have fond memories there.
Speaker 3: Deep fraught pickles. Gotta get that.
Speaker 1: I'll pass on the deep front pickle. I like pickle
Speaker 1: in my coke. Remember we tried that the diet coke
Speaker 1: with pickle juice.
Speaker 3: It's just weird. All right.
Speaker 2: We'll take a break and be back here on the
Speaker 2: KSR pre show. Welcome back.
Speaker 1: It is the show before the show. Billy and the
Speaker 1: Dude A five nine two eight h two two eight seven.
Speaker 1: You can text us five O two two six five
Speaker 1: six six five six, where one person says Ryan Lemon
Speaker 1: should have the All American Rejects for his next Masters
Speaker 1: Sensation birthday.
Speaker 3: That would be cool. Yeah, he probably don't even know
Speaker 3: who that band is though.
Speaker 2: Oh come on, he knows Move along right?
Speaker 3: Probably not a couple of observations from the crowd here.
Speaker 3: Number one. This guy right here has an awesome shirt.
Speaker 3: It's the Midnight Express, that the Jim Cornett. Do you
Speaker 3: know who any of these guys? I do not.
Speaker 2: You have to tell me who they are.
Speaker 3: Beautiful Bobby. You don't know who beautiful Bobby is?
Speaker 2: No, it sounds like Mark Pope named him.
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, I like that he got called out for
Speaker 3: saying beautiful so many times.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Matt said that he needs a dead needs a
Speaker 1: cursed jar, or not for curse words, but for the
Speaker 1: word beautiful.
Speaker 3: And then we have a quilt being made right here
Speaker 3: too by the lady. Oh.
Speaker 2: I didn't even see the quilt being made over here.
Speaker 3: Do you think you could, you know, quilt or what
Speaker 3: is it called knitting? Knitting? Not a chance? No, I
Speaker 3: mean crochet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like get a thread and needle. Is that what
Speaker 2: you're asking me to do?
Speaker 3: I could thread a needle, but I couldn't do anything
Speaker 3: after that. There's no way. My grandmother used to grandmother
Speaker 3: used to make these big quilts. Yeah, you do them
Speaker 3: all by hand. And I'm like, it takes so much
Speaker 3: How long would it take? Care? So much time? Like
Speaker 3: a year?
Speaker 1: Yeah, every day watching TV after dinner. Uh so it
Speaker 1: may be a relaxing pastime for some Shannon. While we're
Speaker 1: speaking of observations, we're in front of the Bell Theater
Speaker 1: here in Pineville. It's none of the old school movie theater.
Speaker 1: You get the ticket here out front. They got one
Speaker 1: big screen back there. Shannon, when's the last time you
Speaker 1: went to a movie theater?
Speaker 3: Oh? Just drive ins count No, Now you got to
Speaker 3: go to the theater. It's been a long time, long time,
Speaker 3: because there's no movies I want to go see. Yeah,
Speaker 3: the next movie that I want to go see is
Speaker 3: twenty eight years later? Do you know that? If you
Speaker 3: watch the others?
Speaker 2: No, is it twenty eight days later? It's kind of stuff.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, it's like the zombie apocalypse type stuff, which
Speaker 3: you know, I'm into. I like that.
Speaker 1: Well, centers looked good, but you gotta be a little
Speaker 1: bit into vampires to appreciate that to its fullest.
Speaker 3: But I haven't seen that one.
Speaker 2: The death of the movie theaters is a little sad.
Speaker 1: I know that Wednesdays that they're trying to bring back
Speaker 1: half priced Wednesdays.
Speaker 2: You know you got a bar.
Speaker 1: Even some movie theaters are building pickleball courts, Yeah, try
Speaker 1: to entice people to come in. Is a pickleball court
Speaker 1: really gonna make people go to a movie theater more?
Speaker 3: No? I don't think so. No, I bet, but who knows.
Speaker 3: So this this has movies, plays, concerts, live events. It's
Speaker 3: kind of like we are gonna be at one in
Speaker 3: sumrset in just a couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, Virginia, Yeah, at the Virginia The nice theater there, Shannon,
Speaker 1: And that's where your band's gonna play right later that.
Speaker 3: Night, right later that night, we will be playing there.
Speaker 3: That's right. That's in Summer set on June the sixth.
Speaker 2: Very good. Well, it is a long weekend, folks.
Speaker 1: Memorial Day is Monday, and while we salute all those
Speaker 1: that have passed protecting our freedom and this country, it's
Speaker 1: also kind of the unofficial start to summer, right the
Speaker 1: pools start to open back up, Shannon. Where does summer
Speaker 1: rank for you on your season's list? Is is it
Speaker 1: up there number one or two? Or you fall a
Speaker 1: little bit?
Speaker 3: Falls number one? For me? Yeah, summer is number two,
Speaker 3: I think, you know, especially now and it's starting to
Speaker 3: warm up, just a little bit tired of all this
Speaker 3: cold and especially all the snow that we got in
Speaker 3: the winter this year. So yeah, I think I think
Speaker 3: if we're ranking the seasons, we're going fall, summer, spring,
Speaker 3: winter for.
Speaker 1: Me, Fall, summer, spring, winter. You know, I think I'd
Speaker 1: have to switch it up a little bit. I'm going fall, spring, summer, winter, Shannon.
Speaker 2: And that's because sometimes, you know, living.
Speaker 1: In Florida, man, that was like that was like a
Speaker 1: harsh winter living down there and going through the heat.
Speaker 1: So uh, definitely looking forward to get back to the beach,
Speaker 1: the pools opening up. We just talked about Ryan's pool
Speaker 1: opening back up and so that should be happening soon.
Speaker 1: Today is the last day that Around the Horn will
Speaker 1: break be broadcasted on ESPN.
Speaker 2: Shannon over four.
Speaker 1: Thousand, five hundred episodes, I believe Around the Horn has
Speaker 1: done over the years, four nine hundred and fifty three
Speaker 1: A staple.
Speaker 2: Of my childhood.
Speaker 1: That hour of Around the Horn and PTI was something
Speaker 1: that I mean I watched for a while, not that
Speaker 1: I've loved the show, but it's just been consistent in
Speaker 1: many people's lives for many years.
Speaker 2: Did you ever watch Around the Horn?
Speaker 3: I did, but I never really was a big fan
Speaker 3: of it. Honestly, I didn't even know it was still
Speaker 3: on because I haven't watched it in so long. Is
Speaker 3: that why they're ending it? Are they ending it because
Speaker 3: the ratings went down? Or are they just tired of
Speaker 3: running the show.
Speaker 1: There's a little like drama behind the scenes, Like Tony Reality,
Speaker 1: the host has maybe had one conversation with his execs
Speaker 1: about why the show was ending and stuff.
Speaker 2: So there's a little secrecy around it.
Speaker 1: But also I mean, you know, eventually, all good things
Speaker 1: have to come to an end, but they got to.
Speaker 3: Replace it with something. So what's gonna be, Well, something
Speaker 3: that they're gonna.
Speaker 1: There were rumored reports that Shannon Sharp was gonna get
Speaker 1: a show all that time slot, and I don't think
Speaker 1: he's gonna get that time slot anymore.
Speaker 2: So I don't know Shannon.
Speaker 3: He's got trouble with his phone. His phone just you know,
Speaker 3: miraculously goes live at really unfortunate times.
Speaker 2: And it's not easy to go live. So I'm gonna
Speaker 2: call BS on that.
Speaker 1: Some news yesterday, Jalen Lowe withdrew his name from the
Speaker 1: NBA Draft. That means he will officially play next year
Speaker 1: at the University of Kentucky. And a guy with some
Speaker 1: big expectations and some pressure on his shoulders, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: he had to be the guy at Pittsburgh and that's
Speaker 1: gonna help him. He doesn't have to be the guy,
Speaker 1: but he has got to be a good distributor in
Speaker 1: a huge part of this team this next year.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and playing in the SEC, it's gonna get a
Speaker 3: little bit tougher, but yeah, being at Pittsburgh playing with
Speaker 3: those guys, he didn't have a whole lot of help.
Speaker 3: I think you're gonna be able to see his true talent. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you know, guys that are on his level as his teammates,
Speaker 3: as opposed to what he had to deal with at Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1: Oh, Pump's excited about him though, and he also realizes
Speaker 1: he had to take a lot of bad shots as
Speaker 1: he was closely guarded. As he gave us some of
Speaker 1: those analytics yesterday, So you know, he can't get worse
Speaker 1: than all the en that Kentucky had last year at
Speaker 1: point guards. So you gotta think he's gonna have gonna
Speaker 1: be prime for success.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's one good thing. I mean when you're fourteen deep, Yeah,
Speaker 3: and you know your fourteenth guy is a top thirty
Speaker 3: to thirty five pick, you know, or in the rankings,
Speaker 3: and you've got that, Yeah, you've sold him on the
Speaker 3: program to come and get better and you know, prepare
Speaker 3: him for the future for next season. Right, that shows
Speaker 3: you just how deep this team really is. I mean,
Speaker 3: they're not gonna have to worry about injuries this.
Speaker 1: Year, and so Otaga will be that fourteenth guy and
Speaker 1: then who knows what they do with the fifteenth. You know,
Speaker 1: I really liked the story of Zach Tawell coming on
Speaker 1: the team late the tryouts that they held at UK. Now,
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if they're gonna have walkowns or anymore
Speaker 1: and stuff, but just the thought of you could go
Speaker 1: try out for the Kentucky team is kind of awesome,
Speaker 1: isn't it.
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, I think though that unfortunately, the walk on
Speaker 3: thing is just gonna be a thing of the past. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean that's a lot of times though it was
Speaker 1: like the assistant coach's son or a friend of the coach,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I think it got
Speaker 1: abused a little bit, but it is sad to see
Speaker 1: that go. While we're talking Kentucky players, the Flow Bill's
Speaker 1: got announced as the team for the Hard Knocks Shannon,
Speaker 1: so that behind the scenes show I get to see
Speaker 1: a little Ray Davis, little Dion Walker, little Maxwell Harriston.
Speaker 1: As many Kentucky fans have become Bills fans over the
Speaker 1: last month or so.
Speaker 3: Were you a big fan of Hard Knocks?
Speaker 2: I love I used to love the old Hard Knocks.
Speaker 2: I haven't watched the new.
Speaker 3: Ones like the last few years.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you go back to the Baltimore Ravens
Speaker 1: being on it back then. I mean even my Buccaneers
Speaker 1: were on it for one year. I do like the
Speaker 1: behind the scenes stuff for sure, So I ray Davis's personality.
Speaker 2: He's gonna be a star on.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll check that one out with Buffalo.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I was speaking of like sports documentaries. I
Speaker 3: started watching the Brett Farv.
Speaker 2: Oh how is that? How is that? That's your guy?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, sometimes you'd just rather not hear like
Speaker 3: the behind the scenes stuff. It's kind of like, you know,
Speaker 3: I was a big fan of growing up as a
Speaker 3: kid watching the Andy Griffinth. Yeah, right with my parents.
Speaker 3: I feel like, you know a lot of people watched
Speaker 3: the show just with their parents because it was always
Speaker 3: on as a kid. And then you start reading the
Speaker 3: behind the scenes stuff, like you know, Aunt Bee was
Speaker 3: a jerk and she was always in a bad mood,
Speaker 3: and then Andy Grit didn't get along with her, and
Speaker 3: there was always like arguing that they're ruined on this
Speaker 3: story a little bit because I want to think of
Speaker 3: Aunt Be. You know, there's this wholesome grandma or aunt
Speaker 3: I guess in this case it's in her name, aunt b.
Speaker 3: You know who's cooking apple pie and you know is
Speaker 3: always jovial when happy, right, But no, you find out
Speaker 3: behind the scenes that things weren't quite as they appear.
Speaker 1: Well, they say, don't meet your heroes, and a lot
Speaker 1: of times I think that's false. I think there are
Speaker 1: you know, you know, people can be nice and give
Speaker 1: you the time of day. Sometimes you don't get that
Speaker 1: signature from a Rory McElroy and you'll hold it against
Speaker 1: them for the rest of your life. But I mean,
Speaker 1: it sounds like it was kind of ruined for you
Speaker 1: a little bit of the Andy Griffith Show.
Speaker 3: And as the Brett Forvard thing right now, I didn't
Speaker 3: go through the entire thing. I just kind of shut
Speaker 3: it off, like you know what, I've heard enough.
Speaker 1: You gotta watch the Aaron Rodgers documentary next, or maybe
Speaker 1: that guy's already been ruined for you.
Speaker 2: I got to tell you something that fiance told.
Speaker 3: Me the other day, Shannon, what's up?
Speaker 1: So we've got engagement photos next Thursday. So we're gonna
Speaker 1: be going to a museum in Cincinnati.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, I thought maybe you go back to the jfkssage.
Speaker 1: Now it's gonna be fancy. Now, Now that's just for
Speaker 1: the engagement. Uh so it's it's gonna be fancy. I've
Speaker 1: got to kind of look my best. I may go
Speaker 1: to the same place Mario went for his outfit for
Speaker 1: the bet gallup.
Speaker 2: Remember that red that.
Speaker 3: He was You don't want to you don't want to
Speaker 3: look like you're going to the derby. And I'm not
Speaker 3: going to.
Speaker 2: Prom, but I think they can help me out.
Speaker 3: It's an engagement picture. Don't wear a hoodie, but you
Speaker 3: don't have to wear a tux either. It's an engagement.
Speaker 2: Well, see, I don't know what to wear, so I'm
Speaker 2: gonna figure it out.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to like a Geno's or a men's
Speaker 1: warehouse and get something nice. And she's worried about what
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wear. But she also said, what are you
Speaker 1: gonna do about your face?
Speaker 3: Oh? What are you gonna do about your face? Yeah,
Speaker 3: we're gonna do put a mask on. What do you mean?
Speaker 1: I have the same reaction. I was like, what do
Speaker 1: you mean? What am I gonna do about my face?
Speaker 1: I can't do anything about my face.
Speaker 3: What did she mean by that?
Speaker 1: I think she met my my facial hair and like,
Speaker 1: you know, like she we'll shave that all, Well, I
Speaker 1: don't know what I'm gonna do, but for your significant
Speaker 1: other to look you in the face and say, what
Speaker 1: are you gonna do.
Speaker 2: About your face?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Uh, talk about a humbling moment.
Speaker 3: Wow, what what was your response?
Speaker 2: I said, do whatever I want with my face. I mean, I'm.
Speaker 3: There's a reason I'm not engaged because I would have
Speaker 3: had a quip that would not have gone.
Speaker 2: Over well and then maybe started.
Speaker 3: I would have been like, what are you gonna do
Speaker 3: about your big behind? You know, That's what I was.
Speaker 1: No, sh No, you can't attack your significant other after
Speaker 1: they lay that lay the law down like that.
Speaker 3: So I think you do need to clean it up
Speaker 3: a little bit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I gotta do a little like chin, you know,
Speaker 1: and I'm probably clean this up. So maybe it's just
Speaker 1: the pencil thin mustache, but you know.
Speaker 3: I get rid of that too. Well, it's it.
Speaker 1: We're in a tough spot. I mean, if we shave,
Speaker 1: we look like we're eleven. So I mean, yeah, we
Speaker 1: want to look like an adult for these photos.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's like.
Speaker 3: Kind of peach buss hardly makes you look like an adult.
Speaker 3: To be fair, Now here's the thing, though, you want
Speaker 3: to dress like you're going out for dinner, like a
Speaker 3: nice dinner. Okay. I don't think you need a tux.
Speaker 3: I don't think you need a tie.
Speaker 2: What about a blazer?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Drew just went through this. I'm sure
Speaker 3: he probably did a photo shoot, you know, before he
Speaker 3: got married. Yeah, didn't did all that. I don't think
Speaker 3: you have to have like a tux though. I think
Speaker 3: you just, you know, just dressed nicely as if you
Speaker 3: were going out for a nice dinner.
Speaker 1: Let's say, okay, well, I'm just not the photos shoot person, Shannon.
Speaker 1: It's like an hour and a half session of photos.
Speaker 3: God, forget about it. I would say, can we just
Speaker 3: do one or two?
Speaker 2: Like I'm gonna be done five ten minutes, hour and
Speaker 2: a half. I don't know.
Speaker 3: And here's the other thing, like, what are you gonna
Speaker 3: do with those pictures? It's gonna like they're gonna narrow
Speaker 3: it down to like five or six good pictures. It's
Speaker 3: gonna go in like a little portfolio. Yeah, and it's
Speaker 3: gonna sit on your mantle and that's all it's gonna
Speaker 3: be good for. You're not gonna post all these on
Speaker 3: social media, are you? Well?
Speaker 1: I mean, she might post kinder I may not post
Speaker 1: them all. She may post some, but I mean, Shannon,
Speaker 1: don't be so cynical for a second. There's gonna be
Speaker 1: memories made. We're gonna have, you know, photos to look
Speaker 1: at when we're older.
Speaker 3: They're gonna be cheesy, right, I want cheesy engagement.
Speaker 2: They're gonna they're gonna be something.
Speaker 1: I you know, this is this has been a ride,
Speaker 1: you know, trying to book you know, venues and and
Speaker 1: I guess you know, all the people that help you
Speaker 1: plan it all, it's, you know, just don't get married.
Speaker 3: I haven't. I'm taking your advice. So are we gonna
Speaker 3: be invited to the wedding? I know we don't get
Speaker 3: invited to your parties. Are you going to like, you know,
Speaker 3: have to have to do a cut list where maybe
Speaker 3: only some of us get invited?
Speaker 1: And still, yeah, you're getting invited. Okay, don't expect if
Speaker 1: you get a plus one or not?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, I mean, like, what are you gonna be
Speaker 3: serving at this wedding that's gonna be so expensive that
Speaker 3: I can't bring a plus one? I mean I'm expecting
Speaker 3: chicken to No, it's not what.
Speaker 1: We're serving, it's how many people are gonna be there.
Speaker 1: She wants like two hundred and twenty five people there
Speaker 1: right now, you better book an arena, I'm telling you, man,
Speaker 1: I'm just like, oh, tell me what you want.
Speaker 3: You know, we'll do it.
Speaker 1: And then she comes back with two twenty five and
Speaker 1: engagement photos and it's.
Speaker 3: Oh wow, okay, And you don't have any say so
Speaker 3: on that. No I do.
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, man, you got to stand up for
Speaker 1: yourself and have a back bump. But look, this is
Speaker 1: about her, right The wedding is not about the guy.
Speaker 1: And I think I'm starting to slowly learn that and
Speaker 1: maybe you'll learn why.
Speaker 3: I agree with that. It is her day, but I
Speaker 3: feel like you should have some input. Like I think
Speaker 3: at some point you gotta draw a line. Like what
Speaker 3: if she said I want a thous Listen, I said
Speaker 3: I want a thousand people. Would you say okay, honey,
Speaker 3: or you say let's back it down to maybe two hundred.
Speaker 2: I don't know who's paying for a thousand people? Oh,
Speaker 2: we'd have to work that out.
Speaker 3: Why does that work? Isn't that traditionally the is it
Speaker 3: the bride.
Speaker 1: Usually the brides family. But we are getting no help there,
Speaker 1: so it's it's oh wow, you know, it's we're we're
Speaker 1: kind of doing our own thing.
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, I won't dig any deeper into why you're
Speaker 3: not getting any help from bride's family, but well, look,
Speaker 3: I mean, do they not approve of the husband?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: They that's not the problem.
Speaker 1: Look, I think it's gonna be a great thing, but
Speaker 1: you know the planning that goes into it, man, I
Speaker 1: just I you know, it's it hasn't been the most fun.
Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna say that to you now A
Speaker 1: five nine two eight oh two two eight seven. We'll
Speaker 1: still have a good time though, five o two two
Speaker 1: six five six six five six. We've just got one
Speaker 1: segment to go. I've got an interesting story on how
Speaker 1: you could claim one hundred dollars from Apple.
Speaker 2: Have you seen this?
Speaker 3: No? But I want one hundred dollars from Now have.
Speaker 2: An Apple device? You can get some money from Apple.
Speaker 3: I've given Apple hundreds of dollars. I feel like they
Speaker 3: should give me at least one hundred bucks.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, there's a process to it, so stay tuned,
Speaker 1: keep it where you got it. We're at Pineville, Kentucky,
Speaker 1: at the Kentucky Mountain Laurel Festival and we will be
Speaker 1: right back. Welcome back. It is the KSR pre show.
Speaker 1: Our guy Liam on the ones and twos back in
Speaker 1: the studio. Thank you, Liam, Shannon the dude Billy Rutledge.
Speaker 1: A reminder, the NCAA selection show for college baseball is Monday,
Speaker 1: so we will have a best of on Memorial Day.
Speaker 1: It is the day after the Illinois when Shannon okay
Speaker 1: a victorious Monday in which you'll hear the pre show
Speaker 1: and KSR give a best of. But then on Monday
Speaker 1: night they have the Kentucky baseball team will see if
Speaker 1: they make the NCAA tournament. Yes or no, Shan, you
Speaker 1: think they're in? Yes, I think they are barely right.
Speaker 1: Sticking with that though, it's.
Speaker 3: You know, the Joe Lonardi at baseball whatever his name is,
Speaker 3: hasn't projected in, so I'm gonna go with that. But
Speaker 3: you know they are lipping in, that's for sure. With
Speaker 3: you know, the loss in the first I mean, yeah.
Speaker 2: They just needed one win and they lost four in
Speaker 2: a row.
Speaker 1: So we will have to wait and see. AI is
Speaker 1: going to replace Joe Lonardi one.
Speaker 3: Of these days too. Shannon, Oh yeah, for sure, I
Speaker 3: think it probably already could.
Speaker 2: Probably I mentioned Apple.
Speaker 1: There is a class action lawsuit right now, Shannon, have
Speaker 1: you did you own an Apple product from September twenty
Speaker 1: fourteen to December twenty twenty.
Speaker 3: Four Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.
Speaker 2: Over like a ten year span, you've had probably more than.
Speaker 3: One Apple device, right right? Two or three?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 1: Remember, yeah, you would say hey Siri and it would
Speaker 1: turn on and start listening to you, right, yep. Well,
Speaker 1: apparently Siri was listening even when you just didn't say, well,
Speaker 1: I'm hey Siri.
Speaker 3: Is that a surprise for anyone? Well, we all kind
Speaker 3: of suspect that.
Speaker 1: Maybe not a surprise, but also highly illegal. So there
Speaker 1: is a class action lawsuit right now. If you owned
Speaker 1: an Apple product between twenty fourteen and twenty twenty four
Speaker 1: if you have the serial number and proof of purchase
Speaker 1: of your item, you can get twenty five dollars for
Speaker 1: each item that you have fought, and you can get
Speaker 1: up to one hundred dollars from Apple.
Speaker 3: You know what, I had several iPhones. I might still
Speaker 3: have the boxes. Yeah, I don't know why I would
Speaker 3: have the boxes, but I might have them up in
Speaker 3: a closet somewhere. So you tell it. You're telling me
Speaker 3: I've got potentially I'm sitting on one hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: You could have one hundred dollars from Apple if you
Speaker 1: find four Apple products that have been secretly spying on
Speaker 1: you for the last ten years.
Speaker 3: Don't know about you, but I feel like twenty five
Speaker 3: dollars per person to spy on my life.
Speaker 2: That's that's where I'm on this story.
Speaker 3: I only get twenty five dollars.
Speaker 1: Sorry, we've been spying on you for a decade. Here's
Speaker 1: one hundred dollars.
Speaker 3: I don't know what the price should be for spying
Speaker 3: on you twenty four to seven, but I feel like
Speaker 3: it should be more than twenty five dollars.
Speaker 1: They expect only three to five percent of all people
Speaker 1: affected by this to actually claim the money.
Speaker 3: I think they got another thing coming.
Speaker 2: So like Apple is gonna get off easy on this.
Speaker 3: Now, should take Apple to task. Everybody should do this.
Speaker 3: Get your twenty five dollars, which again is ridiculous, but
Speaker 3: you know what, why not? Right? Here's the thing though,
Speaker 3: They make you jump through so many hoops.
Speaker 2: That's the thing.
Speaker 3: You trying to get a rebate on something. No, no,
Speaker 3: my gosh, forget about it.
Speaker 1: Well, there was a Facebook one of these a few
Speaker 1: years ago and it was and it was just like this,
Speaker 1: all the hoops that you have to jump through to
Speaker 1: even get the money, it's almost even not worth it.
Speaker 3: And that's what most people do.
Speaker 2: And that's what they expect you to do, right, is
Speaker 2: to not do it.
Speaker 3: But see, I would do it just out of spie.
Speaker 2: I love that about you.
Speaker 3: I don't care it's twenty five dollars or if it's
Speaker 3: two dollars, I'm gonna get my two dollars just because
Speaker 3: you've been spying on me with Siri the last ten years.
Speaker 2: I think. So, I think you're so have they.
Speaker 3: Fixed that or like what's changed, because I would think
Speaker 3: that it's probably all still doing the same thing. Like
Speaker 3: right now, I could probably jump on Facebook and there'll
Speaker 3: be something about a class action lawsuit against Apple because
Speaker 3: it's listening to everything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not sure about that. I hope they've changed
Speaker 1: it with all the awareness that they've brought to it.
Speaker 1: I've just turned it off on my phone. You've got
Speaker 1: to press a button to even activate Siri. So yeah,
Speaker 1: uh eight five nine two ao two two eight seven.
Speaker 2: Shann tell me about DraftKings before.
Speaker 3: We leave the Draft Kings Sportsbook promo code KSR. Bet
Speaker 3: five dollars and if your first bet hits, you're gonna
Speaker 3: get three hundred dollars in bonus bets with Draft Kings Sportsbook,

Speaker 4: how to get it to you, guys. I don't have
Speaker 4: Matt's personal number. We we posted it to the bond
Speaker 4: that Bridge thing on Facebook and Billy I just messaged it,
Speaker 4: messaged the song to you on Facebook.
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, we got our first entry into Yeah
Speaker 3: Matt's podcast.

Speaker 4: She's done. You can work for here before, but we
Speaker 4: worked on it because we will look at the first
Speaker 4: entry so the guys can make that happen. Billy's in
Speaker 4: your messic box.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking at it now, Jefferson, thank you for
Speaker 1: calling in. Well, we'll check out this song. Maybe we
Speaker 1: can play it on Monday and see if.

Speaker 3: we'll give it a listen. Well then yeah, we'll give
Speaker 3: you a listen and send you a twenty page contract
Speaker 3: saying you're not gonna sue us if we play it.
Speaker 3: That's right, corlleg Jefferson, we appreciate it.
Speaker 1: And if that doesn't work, maybe Shannon and Nallais Blue
Speaker 1: Gown will create an original song for interrupted.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, maybe maybe not. I'm not sure. I mean,
Speaker 3: there's so much goes into If you don't have a
Speaker 3: recording studio, it takes forever. Even if you do, yeah,
Speaker 3: to write it, then you gotta record it, then you
Speaker 3: got to mix it. It takes a long time. So maybe
Speaker 3: we'll let this guy have the theme song.
Speaker 1: We will put it to the test next week. Big

Speaker 1: show this morning. Matt Jones and KSR is next for
