I didn't know that until I saw your tweet. That is ridiculous. I mean, when you're the defending champs, you're undefeated, and you're getting... I'm going to play a road game in the... I have to play them in the Elite 8, yeah. Yeah, a road game, that's why you play the regular season. You earn the right to get the number one scene. Plus, all of America wants to see Trancy in NYU in the finals.

It's two of America's most prestigious universities having a play. play each other. Drew, wouldn't everyone want that? I can't think of a better match up. I mean, maybe if Yukon ran into South Carolina. No, not even that. This is the one everybody wants. Most people that went to NYU were choosing between trancy and NYU. And so

why wouldn't they play each other in the finals? Remember when Caitlin Clark picked up the NYU hat, then set it back down and grabbed the Iowa hat? Yeah, I do remember. All right, so before we go, the phones, a couple open lines, 859, 28027. I want to tell you about something I learned.

I think you're going to find fast. I'm anxiously away to this. Have you ever thought about crying, about this, like, not about doing it, but about the science of crime? I guess I've never really thought about it. Okay, so I want you to think about something. Most things our body does, we do, like for a reason, right? So, like, you sweat because it's your body's way of cooling yourself down. Uh-huh.

Right? Did you know that? Yes. I've told you about how seizures are, like, warnings that something is wrong with So everything your body does, for the most part, has some sort of natural rationale why it happens. So I'd never really thought about until I read this article. Why do we cry? Uh-huh.

Like, why do we cry? Do you know? No, I want to hear this. I never thought about it. I bet you also didn't know that your eyes produced two kinds of tears, and they're literally made up of different composition. You're blowing my mind right now. I blew my mind when I read this. Okay, so the first kind of tears is to wash something out of your eye.

Like you get like something in your eye and a tear helps it come out. Uh-huh. So that's one kind of tear. And we've all had that. You get something stuck in your eye and your eye waters up, etc. We don't really call that crying, but that's kind of what it is. The second kind is your emotional tears. And scientists have found they're actually made up of different composition when you're sad. and they believe they're not certain about this, but they believe that the reason in all cultures people cry is because it's supposed to be a signal to other people that you need help or comfort.

Right? Because if you weren't able to communicate or in like prehistoric man, maybe there wasn't language or you see somebody from it. But like if you cry, it's like a way to signal your body's way of signaling help me in some way. Don't you find that interesting? It's incredibly interesting. Now, this is also interesting. Scientists have just done a study. Have you ever seen, have you ever noticed in your life that when you see someone else cry,

whether on a movie screen or in life, that it makes you more likely to cry? Oh, I am definitely that way. Have you noticed that? Oh, yes. I'm like that, too. I don't think I never thought about it, but you are. It's also true if you laugh. If you're laughing, I'm more likely to laugh.

They have now found in your mind what they call mirror neurons that makes it to where your body naturally, without even you thinking, will mirror the behavior of the person you see. So if the person's smiling, you are more likely to smile. If you are, whatever it is you do, these mirror, they're called mirror neurons will actually make you. more likely to engage in the same thing you're seen. Did you know that? Didn't know that, but it makes sense. You're around somebody who yawns. You start yawning.

You start yawning. That's a great example. Why would you do that? Them being tired shouldn't make you tired. Right. But your mirror neurons tell your body... This is very fascinating. I knew you'd be fascinating.

They tell your body, do the same thing they're doing because the neurons are telling you, they're doing it, so you must need to do it, too, for your own protection. All of this was in an article about making yourself cry. Yeah. In acting, apparently, for some people it's easy and for some people it's hard. And they were talking about how over the years actors make themselves cry.

Have you ever thought about that? I have thought about that. If they're doing acting in a movie, you have to make yourselves cry. And they talked about all the different theories as to how you do it. And so it got me to thinking, I thought the science of it was interesting. And then do you think, if I told you right now, do you think you could make yourself cry on Q? I don't want to say yes because you're going to make me do it. No, I'm not going to make you do it.

It's just a conversation. But you know, me, I'm a crier. I know you are. I can sit here and make myself cry. Your mirror neurons are very strong. I'm close to doing it right now. I mean, it's just, yes. You are close.

close to doing it right now maybe because you're talking about it i don't know you're close to crying right now if i if i sit here and thought about it i could absolutely make myself cry maybe you're an actor really so you could just right now yeah here in front of these people well i'm not going to boohoo cry but i could i could tear up just you know you think about how would you do it you would sit and think about sad things yeah i can't do it i'm going to start doing it right now well why i mean i don't know i'm just i'm I'm a crier. I have always been a car. Maybe that makes you at your core an amazing actor,

because you can take yourself naturally to a place of emotion. So like apparently in Hollywood, they have these sticks that for people who don't have your ability and can't cry on command, they will stick them right before they say cut in their eye. And it will make them tear up to where, But apparently it's kind of a hush-h-h-h-h-h-thing. Actors don't want to admit they use those.

They want you to think it comes from the heart like it does, apparently, Drew, with Ryan. I feel like I'm sitting next to Daniel Day Lewis here as he's getting teary-eyed. The people who don't see, you really were getting teary-eyed. Just at the thought of tears. Just the thought of it. That goes exactly with what you're saying, this mirror neurons. Maybe my brain was thinking about it. But I'm not crying. No, but I was thinking about it.

So it's very interesting. What do you think of this? I'm not going to act like I don't cry. I'll probably cry more than most. I don't think I could make myself cry. See, I don't think I could make myself cry either, certainly in a room full of people. If I was in by myself, I could probably take my head to a sad thought and get myself to cry. Yeah.

But I don't think I could just do it on cue like you were about it. to do. On the thing about how it's showing you're in distress or need help or whatever, I'm more of a happy cryer, so what does that mean? Because I don't need help. I'm crying. Like, I cried my eyes out when Aaron Harrison hit that shot for any time I'd watch that replay for like a week, but that's a happy cry. Yeah, I don't know. The article. The article didn't address happy cry. So I don't know the answer to that question. I was standing by Drew right there when Tiger Wood did win. And tears are just streaming down his face. Poor Reed Travis is over here trying to do it. an autograph signing that I'm supposed to be doing crowd control and tiger is winning the

masters I think read mighty crowd too actually I think everyone in your crowd I started it but that's that's an example of yeah of like I'm not sad but I get a little water flaws it's amazing to hear the science behind it I what I didn't know what I found the most fascinated about all of it is that the physical composition of tears is different whether or not it is like cleaning you out tears or expressing emotion tears And by the way, the ones that express emotion are thicker, so they will stick on your face longer, so that you can show you might be in danger for a longer period of time.

We think about it, yes, the big tears that come out of your eye when you're sad are definitely thicker than if you get just something, an eyelash in your eye or something. Yeah, they're thicker, and if you weren't to wipe them off, they will stay on your face longer. This is going to blow my mind the rest of the day. If I'm going to be thinking about the rest of the day, No matter what we do in this show, that's the topic. So I'm just saying I knew none of this.

I read an article last day. Again, the article was about this journalist was going, can I teach myself to cry? And she went to all these acting things. But first she went into the signs of crying, and I found it very fascinated. It was much more fascinating than the Duke NC State game I was watching, except I will say this.

If you get a chance before the season's over, and they're only going to have two more games probably. Watch NC State because they have a really, really fat player. And he is fun to watch. really good. Have you seen that guy? His name is like DJ Burns. He had like 29 last night. My goodness. He had like, look him up. He had like 29 points. Duke couldn't stop him. Duke still won, but he would take the ball. This is a transition from the crime. But he would take the ball. He'd get it. And he just played kind of like a dude like him, you would think. He'd just back up slowly.

Yeah. They would clear out. And he would, and, you know, the Duke guys were skinny. They'd just get pushed back. And he would just push them down to the. the to the rim and then lay it up. I'll be dang. Have you seen that guy? He's a horse. He's huge, but he's a big dude. Oh my goodness. He's a monster. But he's pretty good. Now, he can't guard you. That's part of the problem is he just, he can't guard anybody. Yeah. But he, offensively, I think he had like 29 points last night. Goodness. So the dude has got some skills. Well, it looks like all of his skills are

back you down and then left-handed hook. He's got a pretty good left-handed hook. But when I googled him, why is there a picture of him wearing a Valls uniform? I don't remember him being a VAL. I don't remember him being a VAL. Yeah. Did he play at Tennessee? He's not near as big. Wait, what, no, he is not near.

He is a lot bigger than that. Yes, he is. He is a big, big dude. Oh, yeah, he's listed at near 300, I believe. Yes. He's every bit of it, if you look at it. Who's up next? Meredith is up next.

Meredith, go ahead, Meredith. Okay, so I'm sitting here with my coworker. and he's from Kentucky, but he did not know about the Louisville Hooker scandal. Well, I mean, I don't know how could you not know about that? I mean, I'm just going to leave with this. I think you're going to hear a lot more about it soon. But how could you not know about that?

Right. Where's he from in Kentucky? Lexington, he graduated from Henry Clay. Yeah. He must not get out much. I don't think you, Rick. don't know how you couldn't know about that. That wasn't just the number one sports story.

That was the number one news story for a long time in this entire state. Pablo Tori has a podcast that came out today about the history of Rick Petino. I listened to it on my drive-in today. And it's crazy to go back and think about that whole thing. The thing that people don't, the thing I don't think human beings process enough is that the man that Petino paid to take that woman to get her

abortion, ended up falling in love with her on the drive. And that they got married. Yep. That's crazy. And that they pulled off the road to eat at a subway

and while they were at that subway, he looked at her and said, I will marry you one day. And they had just met when they got in the car together. That whole story, Remember you talk about how you were going in there and then running out to Twitter. It was, if it had been a few years later, it would have been even bigger.

It would have been the biggest story. I mean, it was still big as it was. But I mean, just. That wasn't really roasting people yet. That fact, just that is one of the wild. And then after it was over, they got married and she would take team flights with the team. Just months after they had had the thing at Porcina. Just a college coach doing what he did in a restaurant without all the other stuff is crazy.

It's the number one headline. It is absolutely insane to me that we treat that almost like it's at this point like just something that happened. But it's crazy. I always thought when he came back and he goes into Rick's office and they talk about it. He's like, oh, by the way, I'm taking her out for dinner tonight. You know. Can you, I mean, can you imagine Rick's face when he says that? Are you kidding me?

What? Yeah, he said, I knew she was, his quoted the trial was, she picked up a sandwich and started eating it, and I knew at that point I was going to marry. Oh, my goodness. It's subway. Nothing says love like a fresh footlong sandwich. It's game on at Don Franklin's family dealership. Steer your way over to Don Franklin Auto.com, the largest inventory of new, used,

859-280 2287. Going to go to the phones here in just a second. By the way, Ryan, the new ESPN Mock draft is out. Rob Dillingham third, Reed Shepard, fifth. Fifth. Fifth. And when the season started, we probably thought that's where DJ Wagner and Aaron Bradshaw was going to be. It's completely these guys have coming off the bench are now top five picks in the NBA draft.

Projected. We've seen a few of the ones where it's a name you don't recognize or it's like a blogger on Bleacher Report, but this is this is ESPN and Jonathan how you say givini Giovanni Giovanni and then you've got the the athletic they're pretty reliable too they also have them that high the NBA folks just love Reed Shepherd it's amazing though fifth I mean it's crazy the top two picks and Rob Dillingham basically has played himself into the top available pick and what I mean by that is the same two guys, the two dudes that play in Australia, have been one and two all year. And it doesn't look like they're going to change.

They're just kind of locked in. So the first kind of available pick is three, and they've moved Rob Dillingham to there. They'd be the top two college players. Yeah, they'd be the first two college play. This is probably the worst college draft, maybe ever. And it looks like the top two could be two dudes that don't even start for Kentucky. Think about that this time last year, reads in the 13th region, get ready to play in the 13th region. of it now he's got himself in the top five pick awesome great to see the the story notes that

reed would be only the uh second first round pick in the last 35 years to shoot over 50% from three the other was glen rice in 1989 and i bet he didn't shoot as many i bet he wasn't doing all of i mean glen ross was awesome i'm not going to down playing national championship i mean some of the stuff that reeds get a lot of attention yeah glen rice was a great player but still i mean that's uh that's pretty amazing shooting over 50% from three And I felt like he passed up some shots on Saturday. I did too. I wanted him to shoot more.

He had a couple shots he passed up. Yeah. All right. Who's up next, Rick? Boyce is up next. Boyce, go ahead. You got 30 seconds. I'm just wondering.

Every time that they took out the onsize, I hold my breath. And Bradshaw and Big Z's and Justin Burr, they're going to have to do a lot better around protecting, but every time I had to hold my breath when they take out, Yonso out. Yeah, we're not going to protect the rim.

I mean, it's a catch-22 for Cal because we, Ogo is a rim protector, but he hurts the offense. And the other, and Z can make a couple blocks, but he gets pushed around. So it's a tough call for Cal. Do you play the rim

protector and it close your offense? down a little bit, or do you play the other guys and let it roll and just hope you can outscore him? And I think probably more often than not, he's going to go with the outscorum view. I did like what Bradshaw brought to the table Saturday, came in, played really well for that spurt, but Z has kind of, I think, kind of found his role now and seems to be he's going to be getting more minutes, I think, as we go on. I mean, I hate to say this because it sounds bad, because I don't think it's the kid's fault. But if you look at the games we lost that we don't think we should have lost,

they're games where we played in the end so a lot. Now, he played pretty well in those games, but I just think it limits our offense so much that even though he gives us a defensive boost, it's not worth it for what happens on the other end. Yeah, he's got those blocks that stand out, but really Z's done a great job, shot blocking too. You think back to those late moments, just Starkville a week ago, if not for Reed's heroics, coming down the stretch,

Ogo made some severe mistakes late in the game defensively. Oh, dude, could have cost them the game. Ugo's mistakes were massive down the stretch. They were massive. I mean, it ended up not mattering, but he fouled on that one. He didn't extend out on the defense on the other. Like, they were big mistakes, you know. And with Z, he's kind of, I don't know how many games he's played.

Obviously, not as many as everyone else. But makes you wonder if he had played in November from the very beginning, how good he could be because he's just getting better with each game. I think that's right. Defensively, you know, a month ago, he was looking around, didn't know where to be, and he still has the ways to go, but it's better each game. So it's kind of got robbed of a full year with that guy. It's looking like he's going to really pan out.

Who's up next? Jacob is up next. Jacob, 8-9-280-2287. A couple of lines. Get in here. Jacob, what do you got? Hey, man. A couple years, you all, I read an article, different article about tears.

And supposedly the reason why you cry emotional tears is because your brain is feeling too much of that emotion. and it's a survival instinct for your brain to dump that emotion into tears to help you think clearer. That's why, like, a sad tear. I mean, this was a while ago, but that's why I like a sad tear and assaultier. About my fact there. Well, he said it was a while ago. You have updated science. Yeah, see, this information is new.

We scientists met. We scientists met and we heard a different piece of information. That's what it is. Yeah. Got the new updated scientific research on tears. I'm just telling you what this article said. I didn't do the research myself. It is just crazy, though, that your body could just fabricate two different kinds of tears

depending on what's going on. Your body's crazy. You know, there's a book. What's it called? The Body Tells the Story or the Body Makes a Point or Something. What? No, it's a book. When I was, like, trying to get better, somebody gave it to.

It was like, the body makes an argument. argument. Who is the guy back? It's the name of a book. What do you laughing at? Body makes an argument. I think it's a great title for book. It tells the tale or the body.

Like, it's a book. And I read it at the time when I was like, you know, trying to do. I was like trying to relax and not have the stress. It was if something, it's a thing. But go ahead. Ryan or Shane. I didn't, I didn't learn any of this from, what was the guy's name? He wore like the suit.

You could see the digestive system. I remember that guy. Slim Good Body. He did not explain all of this to us when I was learning things. Did y'all watch Slim Good Body? I know you're talking about. I found Slim Good Body to be cut. But the body keeps the score.

The body keeps the score. The body keeps the score. That's what the name of that book is. Yes, I remember Slim Good Body, and I found him kind of gross. Yeah, he had like a curly wet mullet. I don't think you could walk around in that suit. For people who are young, look at the, look up Slim Good Body. I don't have any idea who you're talking about.

And look up what he walked around and, like, talk to children in. He was teaching us about the body. He would literally walk around in that. And, oh. And I always thought that that was weird. And he was allowed to walk around in that giant Gonzales suit like that. I need to know more about this book. We've got to add to Ryan's reading assignments.

No, it's called The Body Keeps the Score. It's just about how stress and things your body will show out in various ways. basically that you should listen to your body about your health more than we do. I mean, it's a little sort of like, it's a little kind of philosophical kind of stuff, but I enjoyed it. I don't remember a lot of details. I read it at the time and found it helpful at the time, but that was a few years ago. We learned a lot about our brain just from what you have to deal with over the course of time.

No, that's true. You know? Yeah, it's, it's, your brain is a wild place, especially yours, right? 8-9-2-80-22-87. We'll take a break right back. T.J. Smith, personal injury attorney. Call T.J. He'll make them pay. Now, more of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage.

Here's Matt Jones. Welcome back, Techie Sports Radio here at KS Bar and Grill. Come on out for lunch if you would like. Say hi. We got the game tomorrow nights at 9 o'clock. Pre-game will be at 6.30. Late, late game. But last home game of the year, senior night for Antonio Reeves

and Trey Mitchell, we'll talk more about their time here at Kentucky tomorrow. I have a football stat that is not great. Uh-oh. Last year, so apparently there's a thing that the stat geeks called the 12% rule. Okay. And it says you should never have 12% of your plays, be either a penalties, be negative plays, C, turnovers, or D, drop. that if you have less than 12%, you're running an efficient offense,

and if you have more than 12%, you are struggling. Okay? Makes sense? So if you look at the teams that were the best at that, Michigan was number one in the country, followed by Air Force, LSU, et cetera, right? Teams that were good, including an SMU, who ended up being very, very good last year.

133 teams in Division 1, or excuse me, hundred and uh yeah 133 teams would you like to know where Kentucky ranked in the amount of team amount of plays that were either negative penalty turnover or drop well we had to have been near the bottom in just plays so we're starting with a low number and total plays there and I have a lot of memories of drops and penalties I'm going to say we were the worst you have an answer I'll say in the 90s. 130 seconds out of 133. True.

Got it. Only Bowling Green Falcons had a worse percentage of plays. 17% of our plays were either negative penalties, turnovers, or drops. That's not good. And to give an example, Michigan, that number is 7.4%. So a full 1 out of 10 plays more for us were like that. than the national champion.

You had to think that would have transferred into a couple more wins if you just were able to clean things up a little bit. Here are the SEC teams that were in the top 20 on that. LSU, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, and let's see, well, that's it. That's the only ones that were in the SEC. But guess what? Coincidentally, those are the best teams. Yeah. Well, if you're Bush-Hamden, you walk in and on a dry race board, you write that number down,

and say, I don't know what was going on last year, but we're cutting this in half. But it gives you an example of a concrete thing that you've got to change immediately, Ryan, if you want to have a significant amount of success. There's no doubt about it. And, you know, penalties have kind of bit us in the butt for the last several years. You know, you've just got to clean some things up on the offensive side. Who's up next? Got Terry up next.

Terry, 30 seconds. Go. Okay, the cat's out of the bag on Cal. You listen to the clutter, or you wouldn't be telling you. on us two days ahead of time that you're not doing the postgame radio. Secondly, his dad won two titles. I don't care what those mock drafts say. Reed Shepard's not leaving here until he wins the title.

And then a cookie question, can you walk a pat, how many, what's the least amount of Oreos you can eat if you walk past an open bag of Oreos? That's a good question. On the first one, yes, Cal Perry listens to the clutter. I think that's, it's always been the case. and it's very obvious basically that's I mean me thinks thou doth protest too much was in Shakespeare at one point and I think that is that is still the case second I would say Reed Shepard I would I think there's a better chance of him coming back than than I did a week ago but I still think that was when I thought he was

the 14th pick the fifth pick's not coming back is he no if you're gonna i think if you're a lottery pick period you don't come back but if you're the fifth pick yet that's that's some insane serious life-changing money for the rest of your life you got to take it and it's not like coming back where are you what are you where are you all going okay you just came in and now you're leaving all right all right okay it's nice to see you all they just came in and took pictures left. Fine young ladies. They could have stuck around a little bit.

Okay. But back to what I was saying. Yeah. The, I just, if you're the fifth pick, I mean, what are you going to be the third pick? Like, there's not that much of a, there's not much more you could do. There's just so many factors from getting to that next contract quicker.

When you come back, they dissect every little thing. Yes, they do. I mean, he could come back and have a good year and not. We could come back. He could come back and shoot 48. percent from three and be worse. Yeah. Next year's draft class is considered to be much better.

I know he loves Kentucky and he's the one person that would ever do it. So there's, I guess there's still a chance. Anyone else in this scenario is not even a conversation. He's the one connected enough and crazy enough to do it. But even at five, I don't care how much you love Kentucky. You've got to look at what's in front of you. The vast majority of kids, if they were a first round pick period, gone. I do think if he was the end of the first round,

he might come back. Almost every kid in the country, if they're a lottery pick goes, I thought for sure he would go. I had somebody tell me, eh, maybe not. But there's no way a top five pick can return. Right. Like we said this last week, Cal will not, I don't think, let him come back if he's a top five pick. I don't think he would either.

He would just say, no. Well, every player before, that's what's so unique about this. Everyone in Reed shoes before Reed, he doesn't let come back. But Reed has the connection of it's like, he's a Kentucky guy's parents. He's the one exception that might consider it. But even then it's crazy to think that he would actually do that. But he's Reed. Now, of course, the Nile thing is the thing that's different.

But, and again, I know that kid wants to win a national championship, but where are we coming up with this idea if he doesn't win a national championship? Who is, when has anyone ever? never said that. No. Just because his dad won, two, doesn't mean that's going to be his incentive. I mean, do you have the same dream your dad did? No. I mean, nothing against my dad, but, like, Reed's just on a completely different path that Jeff was right now, too. That's another point. His dad was never a first round pick, like ever. Right. His dad never went through these circumstances. Yeah. You know, I mean, his dad would never, his dad,

it's a different, it's a different thing. I think you got a cup of coffee with. with the hawks. You did? He did. That was about it. Yeah. Oreos. If I see an Oreo, if I see an Oreo, I have to eat it.

In the Louisville Aheard building, they have bags of Oreos for free. I get one every time, which is part of the reason I'm in Lexington more, so that I don't eat all those. Oreos are the best things that exist, right? There is never a time where we don't have Oreos in our pantry. Never, ever. There's always Oreo. mega stuff.

Do you think that's a part of why your weight fluctuates? Well, I, the answer to the question, I get two. I get one for each hand. That's it. That's all I allow myself to get. You don't even put two in one hand? That's it. And you asked my mom, I've done that since I was a kid.

If I go into pantry for something, I get two. One for each hand, and I'm done. One in each hand. Yep. And then it have to be the mega, we get the mega stuff. Not double stuff now. It's mega stuff. Okay.

So one in each hand. Yep. All right. And then do you, but how many times a day do you do that? Really just maybe once or twice. Okay. You know, four orioes a day. That'll add out.

That's why you only give yourself two. Two at a time. But if you do it twice a day, that's four. Yeah, but I don't want to go in the first time and get five and then get six the next time. Just two. One free chance. So that's your self-control. Self-control.

But you know the body is keeping the score. Yeah. And cookies are winning. Cookies and donuts are my kryptonite. They're your kryptonite? Yeah. I understand that. Yeah.

Yeah. To answer his question, there's no limit to how many can be left. I will clean out all three rows of an open Oreo container if they're in front of me. I cannot stop when they're there. I cannot buy things. I go to the grocery. I never buy candy. Go to my house right now.

It might be a bag of sour patch kids from Rupp. That's about it. But the moment it gets in my home, it doesn't stand a prayer. It's knocked out in 30 minutes. So my weight is totally variant on how much I do or do. not eat cookies and candy. Yeah. So, like, I haven't eaten either of those in a few weeks, and I've lost some weight.

If I start eating them again, I will immediately put them weight. Like, it's just, it's all variant on, because you know how I am. When I drive, we stop at gas stations. It is physically impossible for me to be in a gas station and not buy candy. I just, I can't do it if I'm on a trip. So I've learned if I get my gas when I'm staying in the city, so like around Lexington, I won't get candy. But if we stop somewhere to get gas in a road trip, I'm getting candy. I cannot not get candy.

So I've learned, do not get candy between Kentucky and Louisville. If I stop at that place in Wadi, I'm coming out with candy. Like there's just no way I can't. And so that's because that really is the main for me weight fluctuate. Candy is your kryptonite. There's no doubt about it. We all know that. There's a new kind of eminence.

Well, Eminem's in the gummy nerd clust. There's a new kind of Eminem's that thankfully not many people have. But when I see them, you got to get them. I'll fight a person. Fudge, brownie, Eminemps. Oh, my goodness. I've seen them. It's not fair.

Like, that was not nice. Now you're going to get 20 bags of them this weekend. I don't want them. Don't send them to me. I don't want to eat them because it's not nice. How good they are. Yeah. And now, I don't know if you know what M&M has done.

You can't get a normal bag of M&M's now. They're all share size. Oh, my. Have you noticed that? No. Everything is shares. Like, it is hard to find the little small bag of M&M's. It's all share.

share size. And when you get a share size, what am I going to do? Not eat them? Who am I going to share them with? I'm by myself. There is something to be on a road trip. You all might notice sometimes I'll sit in the car because I cannot walk in there and not buy something. I don't like combos, but if I'm on a road trip, I somehow end up with combos. I don't even want them, but I'll walk out with them. There is never a day I would contemplate in a combo. But when we drive to Pittsburgh, you and I will stop somewhere in Ohio and I'll be like, well, got to get these combos. and I don't want them. I could walk through a combo factory

and not have any urgency to combo. But if I'm on a road trip and we stop for a bathroom break, I get in the car and I have four snacks that I had no interest in buying when I walked in. You do compensate you get a Diet Coke or a Diet Mountain Dew to compensate for the candy. Yeah, well, I just drink that like water. But the candy, so I don't know how we got off all of this.

No or your question. But the candy is definitely my kryptonite. But thankfully, I have UK Federal Credit Union. Yes, thankfully. Because they make sure that with their award-winning service, they've served the University of Kentucky for over 186 years. From student to graduate, employee and beyond. UK Federal Credit Union is here for you, and it's here for life.

And you know they have the mobile banking app. You can use your camera to save time and make a mobile deposit, pay your bills, check your balances. If you're not like me, I like to still walk in the place. and I'm becoming the youngest person to walk in a bank building every single day. But you can do it on the app like a normal use person. It's UKFCU membership eligibility required, fairly insured by NCUA. We'll take a break.

Very back. We'll take a break. It is Kentucky Sports Radio here live at the KS Bar and Grill. Matt, Ryan. What? I was at, I missed this conversation. Is this just a short-term solution or is this the long-term solution? Rick, because it's, rather than Rick having to, the process of having to take all that

songs out, just a longer process, so it's just easier for Rick to do it like this, because then he can put the podcast directly up. Understood. So it makes it easy. We've been having some podcast issues on the, on Apple. I'm not exactly sure why, but there have been a couple issues here and there, but hopefully that'll get fixed here fairly sitting. All kinds of problems.

Apple Podcasts. We've got Facebook down. Facebook's down. Instagram's down. Like there's all. kinds of issues out there. Are you concerned about anything? I am concerned because I do my afternoon post of making fun of you guys in the Bonnet Bridge Facebook group.

Feel free, by the way, to post things in Bond That Bridge that are not just old pictures of us. Like you could like, you could start communicating. You could start conversations with people. Some football basketball. Yeah, you could tell them about like all the things they need to know in the news. You don't just have to post pictures of me and Drew from 15 years ago. We all know I had very big ears right now. We don't have to keep looking at it.

Yeah, we also know that I have some pictures where I was bangy and like, you don't, you don't have to. Pictures where you were what? Bangy. Oh, bangy. Not I and G. He does seem to just get up and choose violence on our bond that bridge. You're very active on there.

It's fun seeing you on Facebook these days, but it's usually at our expense. NCAA football 25, the video game. First time they've had one since 2009, it's going to come out. They offered every player you could be in the game. for $600. So you would opt in and you would get $600 for being in it. 87% of the players in college football opted in. We don't know who opted out,

although we did get a story that Arch Manning opted out. He did. He did not want it for the $600. So there are people who are like, oh, $600, that's not a lot of money, which is true. but then at the same time like, you know, you've got to pay everybody. They're going to pay every single person on the team for every single team. At some point, there's only so much you can pay.

What do you make of that? And if you were playing, would you opt in for $600 or opt out? $600 is better than $0, so I absolutely would opt in. Okay, what about you? I would pay them $600 to be on that game if I were a college football player. like this isn't like some startup where he can negotiate what he can get to help him. This thing

is going to be colossal when it comes out. It's going to sell whether he's on it or not. So they're just going to move on without Arch Manning and I think he'll regret it the longer. They'll have some generic name player on his roster spot and that game won't miss a beat on sales. You don't think there's any chance that they would say to Arch Manning, okay, for you, we will give you

more because you're this high profile guy. Maybe another game. This one, they're going to sell what they're going to sell whether Arch Manning is on or not. And it would be so hard to set that where you're going to then go around to negotiate every year. I mean, they just wouldn't make the game. If they had to go player by player and figure

that out, they just wouldn't bother. So Kentucky decided to be in the game. Yeah. You know, they're not part of that alliance of teams that the vast majority are. There are like four that aren't. We're one of them. But Kentucky did decide to be in it. And our players are now posting pictures of themselves. I guess EA is now

working with marketing like Brock Van I'm in the game and it's a picture of them. I think Brian Robinson did it yesterday. So it's looking like all the UK players are eager to be a part of it. And I'm sure they're super excited about it, man. It's kind of cool to get that game to come back. See yourself in the game. See yourself in the game.

Yeah, that would be cool. Who's next, Rick? Scott is up next. Scott, go ahead, Scott. Yes, sir. I'm going to the game tomorrow and I'm taking my 14-year-old daughter. It's her first game. She is a huge Kentucky fan and a huge Reed Shepard fan.

I have not been in forever. How early do I need to get there for the shoot around? Can I get her to see Reed after? What do I need to do? I don't know about the shoot around. When does that start, Drew? I don't know when the door is actually open because I'm over here yapping with you all, but I'd say go as early as you can because it's fun.

I mean, in terms of like music and meeting Reed Shepherd, that would only potentially occur after the game. Right. But, and sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. I would lean towards the less likely to do it because it'll be so low. late tomorrow. Yeah. But, but yeah, I think they opened the doors an hour before the game or an hour and 15

minutes. Yeah. So it would be something like that. They do the initial part of shoot-around without fans, but then at some point they open the door. And if you're real early, maybe if you're waving or you might say hi or something, but I wouldn't have an expectation that you're going to meet him. I wouldn't set the expectation that she will meet him because that's probably, I'm not

going to say it's impossible. but it's probably unlikely. Appreciate it to call. And then with Cal not doing radio, I don't know how much people will hang around after. Even though it's the last game, I don't know. They may or may not.

It's unfortunate for the caller because it is a 9 o'clock tip-off, so it won't get over until 1115, 1130, and they just won't stick around. They're going to be out of there pretty quick. Drew and I are taping Fade this today at 3 o'clock, so hopefully have a new episode, our conference tournament previews. Yeah.

Got to figure out which conference tournaments we're going to. I got them. I'm doing ready. I got you ready. Don't you worry about it. Cornbread hemp.com promo code KSR. If you would like to try cornbread hemp, now's the time, 30% off. But the promo code is actually March, not KSR.

Then you can get your, my grass is blue t-shirt. Yeah. You got to use the promo code March. You will get your cornbread hemp and a my grass is blue t-shirt from cornbread hemp. Again, promo code March. We will see you later. be back here tomorrow. Be trying to stay dry. Nice to see the folks from Center. Nice to see everybody here. We will see you later.
