Now, here's Matt Jones. This ain't Matt Jones. You know what this is. Mary Mondays, Myron Medcaf, Black Jones, in the building with the crew. Is everybody there, Drew? Drew's on vacation this week.

You being Shannon. Yeah. Drew, peace out. Hey, man, I respect it. I'm going to vacation after this show, man. Start my vacation this week. Oh, good for you. Where are you going on?

Oh, your birthday week. I'm just going down there. Yeah, my birthday is Thursday. I'll be 41. So I'm going down to Norlands to celebrate and enjoy myself. And it's going to be a fun week, man. How are you all doing? After this incredible weekend, again, let me say this.

And I just want to know your theories on this, right? So Matt Jones leaves goes to Europe, right? Yes. What was that, May 27 or something like that? Yep, in the May. Made around that, right? Okay. Yep.

I come in, I start the Merry Monday wave, which is taking off in BBA, by the way. I mean, it's just going crazy. Everybody's talking about it. I introduced the power of Al Green. Right. And everybody's talking about that too. Now couples are all very happy. Right? Yes.

Before Kentucky had never been to the College World Series. Am I correct? Is that a fact? You're dead on so far. Speak the truth. I show up. Yes. I bring Reverend Al Green with me.

And if I understand correctly, not only did Kentucky make its first College World Series appearance, they've also just won their first game in the College World Series. That's right. Is that accurate? You're dead on so far. I am not the type to take credit. But sometimes you have to.

You know what I mean? Sometimes it's important to say, you know what? I'm not saying, I'm just saying. And all I know, fellas, is, before I showed up on Merry Mondays, there was no College World Series, and now you got a chance to advance with a big game against Texas A&M. Is there any chance, fellas, that I've played a role in what has happened so far? Like, my good luck charm is what I'm asking you all. Shannon, I think he's on to something.

I mean, we're giving all this credit to, you know, Coach Mingione for what he's done. But I really serves it. But I think Myron has made a good argument for himself that maybe he's the reason we had this big, exciting couple of weeks of baseball. I like to think that maybe, you know, the baseball team is hanging out in the locker room before the game. They've changed up their soundtrack a little bit. They're playing some Al Green before they go out there. And I think that's getting them in the right mind frame to go out there and play loosely, you know?

Maybe you're on to something. Listen, you said it not me. I'm saying, I'm a humble person, but I do wonder, Matt leaves, I come in, and all of a sudden we're seeing things that you've never seen in college baseball history at Kentucky. Here's another thought I had from the weekend, right? Mitchell Daly's better than me, right, with the walkoff. Because had I hit a walkoff in Kentucky's first college world series appearance, I would have hit at least three backflips on my way to home.

I also think I probably would have invited people from the stands to run the bases with me. And then I think this is just me personally. I think I would pause at second base, ask somebody to give me a microphone and probably rap the lyrics to hip hop, hooray. Because that would be my moment, right? Like that is one of the greatest moments in Kentucky sports history. And he's better than me. I mean, I know he was celebrating everybody

kind of mobbed him when he got the home plate. I would have soaked it in a little bit more with a moment like that. I mean, that is one of the biggest moments in Kentucky sports history. Is it not? Am I exaggerating that? No, their first ever college baseball game and to win it in the bottom of the 10th

on a walk-off home run, it definitely deserves to be in there. I'm kind of like you, though, especially that last trip between third base and home. I would have made that last for about 20 minutes. would have been jumping up and down and doing a little celebrating before I touched home plate. Did you see what Mengeon was doing, though? That was the one thing you could read his lips. He said, make sure you touch home plate before you celebrate.

Yeah, because that's the thing. Like people have missed home plate in that situation before. Yeah. Yeah. And I get it and I respected that he didn't go. But I'm like, I'm like you, right. I would have sat at third base probably had some, like stone cold Steve Austin, like have somebody toss me a couple beverages, right?

You know, smash them together. down them and then head to home plate. I just would have really going all in in the moment like that. Because first off, what a game. Was an awesome game. And I think this is, and this is something that we don't see enough, right?

Baseball playoffs, Major League Baseball, college are incredible. Like high stakes baseball is incredible. Like when you have a game like that and it's back and forth, you've got to come from behind situation. And then at the bottom of the 10th, get a moment like that.

Basketball's cool. You know, someone hits the last second shot. That's a cool moment. The last second field goal in football, those are cool moments, a goal in the third period or something like that or even something that's shootout in hockey. That's cool. But to me, if I had to choose, right, to win a game, like what I would do with the last second shot, last second field goal, I would pick a walk off home run every time.

Because I think that's the most memorable in terms of how. how you can win a game. Like, I don't think it gets better than a walk-off home run in a playoff situation in baseball. What do you all think of that? I agree with you. And I think you've kind of hit on the reason why. You know, you get the great crack of the bat to start with. But then you get to take a victory lap to celebrate that winning home run you just hit.

You know, in football or basketball, you can run around. But, man, you get a victory lap where all eyes are on you. You can't touch that guy until he gets to home plate. So it is kind of something special. And, you know, we're going to forget. Ryan Nicholson hit one in the bottom of the night to tie it. Yeah, that was a home run. That was huge to get that one.

And then for Daly to do it, the next inning was pretty special. There's nothing better than the walkoff, though, in baseball. I agree with you, Myron, because you don't know when it's coming. It's the element of surprise. Like, if you're watching a basketball game and, you know, you get a tie game, you know that the clock's ticking down. Here it comes. If there's going to be a last second made shot, it's going to be, you know, in the next few seconds.

In baseball, it could be any scenario, and boom, you're like, you know, just in a matter of a second, a crack of a bat, the game is over. So I think that element of surprise in baseball, the walk-off gives it the best ending in sports. I would have had somebody with like a chariot, right? But not one with horses, like where the people carry, you know what I'm talking about?

Yeah, yeah. With like a throne on it, right? Love it. They would have put the throne on the field. I would have climbed into it at third base, and there would have been a crown. and what's the thing? It's not a staff.

What are they, you know what I'm talking about like macho man used to have it? I don't know what it's called. It's got a scepter. A scepter. You know, like one of the, with a ruby on top of it, one of those jocles? You know what I'm talking about?

Yeah. Yeah. I would have had a cape, you know what I mean? And then they would have literally carried me to home plate. And then sat me down. I would have stepped on home plate and I would have celebrated that way.

I just would have been, I would have been over the top. with it. But that was such an incredible, incredible game. And again, all I can tell you all

is before I came, right? And I'm not saying Matt Jones is a good luck charm, I'm sure too. Matt Jones leaves. He says, mine, I want you to do Mondays.

I'm like, cool, I'll do Mondays. I show up to start the week. And now we're seeing things that you've never seen before in Kentucky sports history. It's just something to consider. It's just something to think about. But I'm not taking full credit.

I think it's Al Green. If I'm being honest. I think it's Al Green. Can you come back in March maybe, you know, hang out with us then, host the show a couple of times. As soon as Matt left, also, the Reds went and won like six games in a row. How about that? So you coming in and Matt leaving has definitely been good for baseball, Reds baseball and UK baseball. Hey, and how about the UK crowd that's out there, man?

You can hear the Gold, Big Blue coming through the TV monitor. Yeah, it's awesome. Blue showed up. Yeah, I mean, but you always show up. Like, you all show up more than anybody. I mean, like, that's never a surprise, right? Anywhere there's a game. Anywhere.

You all will be there. I mean, and it's pretty remarkable. And, like, I know covering, like, tournament, NCAA tournaments and different events like that. How many people show up without tickets to events? I mean, that's the amazing thing to me. It's that you all will just go and set up at local bars in the area. Yes. And just kind of flood the streets.

You know what I mean? You see that in Nashville during the SEC tournament. Fans come down, don't even have a ticket, don't even have an entertainment. don't even have an intention to going to the game. They just want to be close to where it's all going on. Yep.

Be a part of it. You're like saying a large biker gang or something on the house? You ever seen like what those large biker? It's just like 1,500 of them or something like that. I ran, I was in North Carolina one time. I didn't know anything about biker game.

I didn't know like bikers had conventions. You know what I mean? I thought they just met up at like a rest stop or something and then hung out. I don't know they had like these organized events. But I was at this biker, this hotel that happened to also host this giant biker convention.

And there were like a thousand bikers at this hotel. I've never seen anything like it. And they were literally everywhere you looked. I don't know if there's a uniform, but they all had on the, you know, the leather situation. That's what it's like when you go to an event and Kentucky fans are there. They are everywhere you turn and you're certainly seeing them in Omaha. Where would this championship rank?

I actually asked that a couple weeks ago. But now it's getting real. Like, I mean, before it was kind of real, it was going to the college world series, the history attached to that. But now this is something else. Because you're playing Texanan, today, 7 p.m.

Eastern time. Yes, right. ESPN, which pays me. Kudos to ESPN. And I mean, this is, where does this rank historically among like Kentucky sports moments for you all?

I'm not asking everybody, but like for you all, where does it rank? Wow, if they go on to win the World Series in their first appearance this year, if this great season they've had, I don't know if I could put it above a basketball championship, but in my mind, I would put it above everything else. Oh, hold on a minute. Above a football title?

We haven't got a football title. I thought you're talking about things that's already happened. Yeah, no, that was my idea. That was my idea. But you'd pick a college football championship over. Oh, absolutely. Yeah, I definitely have. But the things that have already happened, where would this rank?

Yeah. It would probably just be second behind a basketball title. It really would. Wow. Wow. I don't know the volleyball team just won a title and I want to take anything away from them. Rifle is won like 21 titles. But man, to win the college baseball series is pretty special.

You guys got a good rifle team? Oh, we are a rifle school. We're not a basketball school or football school. We're a rifle school. Oh, yeah. Yeah. You ever see that thing in the Olympics, man, where they're on like skis and they shoot stuff? That's crazy.

Yeah. It's amazing. Marathon on skis and then you got to stop and shoot something. Shoot a target. It's like real James Bond stuff. I mean, like forget, why are you casting like stunt double? Like, just put those people in it. So you guys have a good rifle team.

I didn't know that, man. So I want to hear from everybody else on this. Merry Monday. How are you feeling about this college world series game? What's something that made you happy? Something that made you smile. Also, if you think I'm the reason this is happening, I want to hear it.

If you think it's Al Green. I want to hear it. It feels like a celebratory moment. I did, I think, with Al Green the first week, James Brown. I'm leaving for vacation. I'm happy. I want a little Stevie Wonder. Can we get some Stevie Wonder?

Yeah, we get Stevie Wonder. Today I love Stevie Wonder, man. Love Stevie. I ran into him at the airport a couple years back. Because he didn't see you coming. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Come on. Come on, man.

Are you in that conspiracy theory? Are you in the conspiracy? Are you in the... Okay, so here's the thing. All right, and I don't want to... Listen, I know people have their conspiracies. I can only tell you what I witness with Stevie Wonder. Somebody was driving him in a golf cart right through the airport here in Minneapolis.

So all of a sudden he pulls up and everyone kind of crowds around him. Pretty amazing moment. Oh, Stevie, Stevie, he just performed somewhere. And then, you know, this woman walks up to him. She's like, hey, Stevie, I want to take a selfie. and he's like, yeah, yeah, no, get in, get in, get in. And they took the selfie and Stevie goes, I'll hold the phone. I'm not joking to you.

Stevie was the one who took the cell. He had the phone up and I have a picture of it to prove it. I'm not saying that means anything, but he was holding the phone. But Stevie's legendary, man. Maybe he's just got really good, like, Intuition, you know, he can just kind of tell where things are without seeing him. Well, I mean, he's a good. He's good at guessing.

There are a lot of stories, man, out there. I don't know if you heard the story about him and Ray Charles, right? At the We Are the World, when they were making We Are the World. Yeah. There's a documentary that has this story. But apparently Ray Charles was like, hey, I got to go to the restroom. And Stevie was like, I'll take you. This is what people said.

They said that Stevie led Ray Charles, you know. So I don't know. It's intuition, whatever it is. He's the greatest musical genius in the history of right time. He was a 13-year-old musical savant, and I want to hear a little Stevie Wonder. Nice. I'm getting ready to celebrate. You all are celebrating.

It's a festive moment. Have you seen the video? There's a video of Stevie Wonder. When he catches it? The microphone. Okay, the guy's not even touching the microphone and it falls to the side and he just grabbed it before it hits the ground. Explain that one to me, Myron.

He did catch the mic. He did catch the mic and it was like, all right, man. Yeah. Okay, what's up here? What's going on here, man? Is there something you want to tell us? Shaq says, Shaq told the story, she killed him,

where they lived in the same complex in L.A., some big luxury, you know, five-star joint. And Shaq says he pulls up to valet, right? And tosses his keys to the valet, gets out as he's coming into the complex. He walks in past Stevie, and Stevie looks up and goes, Hey, Shaq, how you doing? This is what Shaq said.

These are not my theories, people. This is not me saying this. I love Stevie Wonder. I respect Stevie Wonder. I think he is everything he says is. I'm just telling you some of the stories that are out there. But I think if you're going to celebrate a week like this, some Stevie Wonder, I think is a great way to do it.

I'm getting ready to take off. Enjoy Nolan's food. Somebody told me, I can't call it Nola. I got a friend who told me that they don't call it Nola. You got to call it Nalans or something like that. You know, the local say it. Yeah. Yeah, they said I got to say Nalans.

So some good food, good music, good fun. I'm looking forward to disconnect. We take a break now? Yeah, let's go. Let's take a break. Yeah. I'll take a break. We'll be back.

Welcome to my new podcast, Learn the Hardway with me, your host, and your favorite therapist, Kear Games. And in recognition of mental health awareness month, I'm bringing over a decade of my own experience in the mental health field and conversations with so many incredible guests. I'm talking, Tripp Fontaine, Ryan Clark. Sometimes when we're in the presentation,

suit of the thing. We get so wrapped up in the chase that we don't realize that we are in possession of the thing. And we're still chasing it and we don't know when we've done enough. Because people scoreboard watch. Life becomes about wins and losses. Steve

Burns, Dustin Ross, because you find it important to be a good person while you hear on earth, or are you a good person because you're afraid? Because that's two different intentions, bro. Absolutely. And that's two different levels of trust. I want you to just really be a good person. Join me. Kier Gains is we have real conversations about healing, growth, fatherhood, pressure, and purpose on my new podcast, Learn the Hardway.

Open your free iHeartRadio app. Search Learn the Hardway and listen now. What's up, guys? This is Clivert Taylor the Fourth. And on my podcast, The Clivert show, I'm bringing you conversations about all kinds of stuff. Like being an internet famous referee. We're in the middle of a game. This linebacker, this linebacker walks up to me. He goes, hey, ref, my mom wants you to wave at her. What? Come out. Quarterback on office blue with 42. Hey, Brett.

My mama want you to weigh better. What? Hey, Miss Parker. Listen to the Clippers show on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. American soccer is about to explode. The World Cup is coming. Ramos sending on the only store at the chip. I'm TAB Ramos.

I'm Tom Bo. On our podcast, Inside American Soccer, you'll get the real storylines. I'm not worried about Policic. I'm not worried about Balagan. I'm not worried about McKinney. My only concern is what happens in the back. The biggest decisions. If you're going to look at stats and numbers, he has no shot at making this World Cup team.

And the truth about the U.S. national team. It wouldn't be a huge surprise if our team ends up in the quarterfinals or potentially a great run into the semifinals. The World Cup is almost here. Experience it all with us. Listen to Inside American Soccer with Tom Bogart and Tab Ramos on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, wherever you get your podcast. What's up, fam? It's Isaiah Thomas. And I'm C.J. Toledano, and our podcast Point Game is about defying the odds.

Like LeBron heading into the playoffs without Luca and Austin Reed. And finding ways to win no matter what. He's the smartest player to ever play the game. His IQ is at a level that we've never seen before. And he knows without Luca. And Austin Reeves, I got to manipulate the game. We get a player's perspective on the challenges of the playoffs. I think Joker's going to be exhausted this series

because when they don't have Rudy in the lineup, he has to really guard guys like Nas Reid. He has to guard Julius Randall. And then he has to give us everything he gives us on the night-to-night basis on offense. And when IT's friends stop by, like Quentin Richardson, we dive into some playoff history too. Steve Nash would get that thing.

That man, hell get the flying. He running up the court, licking his fingers. is why he got the ball. Like, you go through a training camp with that, Isaiah, you figure it out real quick. Get your ass up and down the court, and you're going to get the ball. So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Yeah. On the wall. Yeah, that's good stuff, man. I love Stevie, man. Makes you feel good as soon as you hear it, doesn't it? As soon as you hear. Yep.

Stevie. He's incredible, man. incredible, incredible talent. There was some incredible talent on display. That college world series game, Kentucky, getting ready to host Texas A&M, or face Texas A&M, I should say. It's a neutral site game in Omaha, 7 p.m. Eastern on ESPN.

Before we get the calls, I'm just going to tell you guys the stuff that I'm seeing on the Twitterverse, okay, people are saying it's me. I didn't say it. Okay, I didn't say it. I'm just telling what people are saying. Dirt Road Sneakerhead says you are definitely responsible for UK baseball's postseason success. Also, I can say with 100% certainty that no one has ever seen you in Superman in the same place at the same time.

I can't prove that you are Superman, but I also can't prove that you're not him. I respect it. I respect the, I'll take, you know, as a compliment to say I'm responsible for the UK run. I respect the Superman, but that's a bit much. We all know if there was a black man with a red cape flying around the world, it wouldn't last long. It would be a situation. Okay. So I'm not super mad.

But I do respect the thought. Listen, this isn't me, people. This is just people saying that maybe fellas, again, maybe I show up and maybe that's help. That's all. I mean, I'm not taking anything away from the team. They deserve 99.99% of the. praise. I'm just wondering if maybe I'm a little good luck charm. That's all.

And it sounds like people on Twitter think that I could have something to do with it. That's all. It's a great way to start the week. We got Myron on Monday. Merry Monday. It's a good way to jumpstart your week right off the bat. We've got to wait to see what happens tonight. If they went tonight, y'all nervous? Texas A&M did not throw their ace in their first game. So they're throwing their ace tonight and A&M and Kentucky did not play during the regular season. They're going to do those weird cheers.

and stuff with their fans. Like, are they bringing those people? Some of that's cultish a little bit, right? Like, some of that's over the top. Yeah. You're having these meetings the night before the game. It's just a lot. I don't want to have to do that much as a fan.

You know what I mean? I want to show up and cheer and enjoy it. I don't want to have to come to a meeting. And it sounds like they just do a lot of it. Who's our first calling? Let's go to Jake. Jake, how you doing? This Merry Monday.

I'm good. How are you all? Good, good. Hey, it doesn't get any married. in Henderson County than this Monday, thanks to a special group of young ladies that I want to give a shout out to. And that's the Lady Colonel's fast-pitched softball team. Nice. They are the state champions as of this weekend, and they did it in a blowout.

11 to 0 after five innings. I mean, they put it on them. Let's clap it up for them. Yeah, absolutely. Fast-Bitch softball. 11-0. Wow. I love it.

Well, congrats to. Congrats to them. Is that high school? Yep. Henry County High School, Lady Colonel's fast pitch team. It's the first state championship in that program's history. So big shout out to those young ladies for doing an excellent job.

Who's the coach? The coach is Coach Troutman, Shannon Troutman. What's the first name? Shannon. Well, congrats to Shannon. Troutman and the fast-pitch team, the lady colonels of Henderson County. Congratulations. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Henderson County won the state softball title and PRP won the state baseball title. So two new champions coming in. That's awesome. Congratulations to them, man. Yeah, I love it. Celebrate.

Merry Monday. And listen, those high school achievements, I don't care what you do in life. Those are the biggest moments. You can talk to a pro athlete who's won multiple NBA titles or multiple. Super Bowls. And you go, what was the highlight? What was the thing you think about the most? It'll be something that happened at junior year of high school. Yep.

Like, it does not get bigger than that. We got time for one more call? We do. Let's go to Travis. Travis, how you doing? Good morning. Monday. Doing well, calling from Omaha, Nebraska.

Me and a couple buddies were at the game on Saturday. Don't know if Shady Raid is a sponsor today, but after Mitchell Daly's walk-off home run, may have bear hugged two strangers, broke a pair of sunglasses that are not shady raised. That's all right. So not able to get a free replacement. Yeah.

You'll get some new ones down the road. Yep. And Ryan Lemon ran into a close friend of yours at Rocko's trying to help us in the Jell Shot Challenge, Mr. Allen Stein. Yes. Have some great stories. Wish you were there to join us. He definitely, my liver's struggling today.

I'm hanging out with this yesterday. But it's a great time looking for a win tonight. A message to BBN. if you're scared of A&M and their ace, stay to hell home because the cats are rolling tonight. Amen. Preach it. I like it.

That's the attitude you got to take. Thanks for the call. You got to have that. I don't know who this ace is, but who cares. I mean, the way you've been playing, who cares who they're throwing up there. You got to have that machismo, that bravado.

We do have some work to do in the Rocco Jellowshot Challenge. I think we're about 4,000 behind. Yeah, we're a little bit more. I saw that. What happened there? Tennessee fans are drunker than us. That's what happened. Yeah, 4,000 is a long way to come back from.

Do we got to take a break now? We got about one minute here. Let's take a quick call there. Can we do one quick call? Yep, let's go to Mike. Mike, how you doing on this Merry Monday? Doing well and building on the Myron Mintam that's been building since Matt. Oh, I like that.

Say that again? I'm a still, say that again? Myron Mintem. The Myron Mintem. I love it. Trade market. I love that. Okay, go ahead.

Well, and Ryan just mentioned the boys baseball champions. We got to be real quick here. For the first time ever, the PRP baseball team went to the KS bar on Saturday. Nice. Nice. I hope you had a good time. I hope they had a good time and enjoyed it. It sounds like a lot of good baseball and softball success all throughout that state.

Tripp Fontaine, Ryan Clark. Sometimes when we're in the pursuit of the thing,

we get so wrapped up in the chase that we don't realize that we are in possession of the thing and we're still chasing it and we don't know when we've done enough because people scoreboard watch. Life becomes about wins and losses. Steve Burns, Dustin Ross, because you find it important to be a good person

while you hear on earth? Are you a good person because you're afraid? Because that's two different intentions, bro. Absolutely. And that's two different levels of trust. I want you to just really be a good person. Join me, Kear Gaines, is we have real conversations about healing, growth, fatherhood, pressure, and purpose on my new podcast, Learn the Hardway.

Like being an internet famous referee. We're in the middle of a game. This linebacker walks up to me, he goes, Hey, ref, my mom wants you to wave at her.

What? Time out. Quarterback on office blue with 42. Hey, rec, my mama want you to wave at her. What? Hey, Ms. Parker. Listen to the Clifford show on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. What's up, fam, Ms. Isaiah Thomas.

And I'm C.J. Toledano, and our podcast Point Game is about Defendant. the odds. Like LeBron heading into the playoffs without Luca and Austin Reed. And finding ways to win no matter what. He's the smartest player to ever play the game. His IQ is at a level that we've never seen before. And he knows without Luca and Austin Reeves, I got to manipulate the game.

We get a player's perspective on the challenges of the playoffs. I think Joker's going to be exhausted this series because when they don't have Rudy in the lineup, he has to really guard guys like Nas Reid. He has to guard Julius Randall. And then he has to give us everything he gives us on the night-to-night basis on offense. And when IT's friends stop by, like Quentin Richardson, we dive into some playoff history too. Steve Nass would get that thing.

That man, hell get the flying. He running up the court, licking his fingers why he got the ball. Like, after you go through a training camp with that, Isaiah, you figure it out real quick. Get your ass up and down the court, and you're going to get the ball. So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Now, more of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Here's Matt Jones. What a song. What a beautiful song. It could be our whiskey deep song of the day.

Yeah, on your way to work or wherever you're going as you're getting ready for this big game that everyone's talking about. Obviously, Texas A&M, Kentucky. Who is this ace, man? Everybody's talking about. You all are talking like, is this Cy Young, Satchel Paige, Randy Johnson, Nolan, Ryan?

Who is it? C.C. Sabathia? Who is this guy? I don't know. What makes him so intimidating? I don't know that either, but I'm not worried or intimidated after that last call. Kentucky shows up. I mean, they've been proven they can hit anybody this year.

Their bats are awesome. Okay. I think I find him. Is it Ryan Prager? Is this the dude? Everyone's talking about it? I think it's Ryan Prager. Okay.

Pitched a perfect game earlier, I think, this season. That's got to be him. That's got to be him. Because, man, it's intimidating. But, I mean, where you've been playing, nothing's matter. Like, sometimes when it's your year, it just doesn't matter. You're right. You're right.

You're right. Ryan Prager considered the ace of the staff. That's him. Yeah. Had a perfect game earlier. It looks like this season. And I don't want to bring it up, Brian, but then people on Twitter brought it up, like from here, what colors are you wearing, man?

Like, what? I have on the EKU Colonel's colors. Burgundy and didn't think about Texas A&M also burgundy tonight. Okay. What are you doing, Ryan? From here it looks like an A&M shirt. You know what I mean? From where I'm looking.

Yeah. I don't know. It just feels like if I'm the good luck charm, right? I just don't want that to be something that comes back to you, right? That wears, you know, wearing those colors, man. I'm hearing it. Mario posted a picture and you don't see the E.K.U. You just see the maroon top.

You think I'm wearing Texas A&M stuff today. Yeah, it looks a little A&M-E, you know, but it happens. It happens. It's not, it's not, it's not, E-KU is legit. I just think you got to make it clear. Colonel pride, yeah. Yeah, you just got to, you just got to make that clear, I think, on a day, on a day like this. Agreed, agreed.

But yeah, it's going to be a big game, man. I'm looking forward to seeing how it all plays out. I think the momentum, it looks like it could continue. did you all see Roy McElroy? Did you watch the U.S. Open yesterday? I had it on. I was kind of trying to keep an eyeball on in a little bit. He kept missing putts, man.

He missed like a couple of putts there in the end could have locked it up for him. He missed four. He missed two four-foot puts in the last couple holes. Yes. That would have given him. Then he had a drive that went, you know, that wasn't what it could have been.

But, you know what I mean? He's had like a 10-year major drought. He's right there. And then he just misses it, man. And I just feel bad. I felt bad for him. You lose to Bryson de Chambot, gets into his car after, you know,

drives away, doesn't talk to the media, gets on a plane, which I don't blame him for. Like in those situations, like, I'm surprised when athletes do talk to us. You know what I mean? Like, I get my car and leave too, but it just may be.

me think like, like to me in a moment like that, I'd rather get blown out. Like you tell me Super Bowl major national chance, I'd rather lose by 30 than lose like that. Like I would rather just get destroyed and everyone's like, okay, we're not on the same

level, then be up like in a national championship game and basketball up like four with a minute to play and then lose. You know what I mean? Like that to me would hurt a lot more. than the other situation. You know this, like I do with this,

the worst thing to have to do is a member of the media is going a losing locker room that just lost. It is the worst. So if you're Rory, you just missed two four-foot puts, man.

You don't want to talk about it. Now I want to ask you, what was going through your head when you lined up for that put? Well, I thought I was going to hit it. You know, he didn't discuss that with everybody. So I don't blame me for cutting out.

I'm like you. That's got to be a tough situation. It's too bad that he can't take the Matt Jones approach to golf and once you get on the green you just pick it up. You don't have to hit it. It just counts. It's already in. Is that how he plays?

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Why even play it? Because he talks a lot about golf. He talks a lot about being a great. It sounds like he's a pretty good golf. I've never got. He is good. He's really good. But I'm telling you, if it gets a ball on the green, if it's within 10 or 15 feet, he's picking it up. Okay, he's one of those golfers. That's good to know. Yeah.

That's good to know. I mean, I felt bad for Rory, man, because I think it's a universal thing. And his week was going so well. I don't know if you all know he had filed for divorce from his wife. I want to say last month. Right before the PGA at Valhalla. Like that week, that had happened. That was the big story until the Scotty Shreffler stuff.

And then Monday they reconciled. So Monday they got back together, you know, and then he takes the lead at the U.S. Open. Life is good. And then that happens. I mean, man, like what a kick. in a situation like that. Like I said, I'd rather just get destroyed.

You know what I mean? I'd rather just not be in it. Like the 28 to 3 Super Bowl, you know, the Falcons, wasn't that it, 28 to 3? That's going to last forever because of, you know, how it unfolded. But if they had just been destroyed by three touchdowns, no one would care. Like no one would bring it up, man. So, man, for me in those situations, I don't want to lose like that. I had another question for you all on this Merry Monday.

So Matt and I always talk about this. When you're in the Midwest like me, I don't know what the South is, okay? Like I don't know who's in the South. Like I don't know who pays their membership dues, who's kind of like viewed as maybe not necessarily the South, like what it actually is when you say the South. On Twitter, some site, I don't know what it's called,

it says Yee, Yee, I don't know. know what that is. But they put out this map that a lot of people are talking about. Got 7.7 million views about what the South is. And I want to know your opinions, fellas, on whether or not it's true. First off, about 40 states are not the South, according to these

guys. So like most of the country eliminated. They have, this is their measuring stick. Not the South, sort of the South. The South, the deep South, Florida. Right?

That's how they get their own category. I love that like no matter where you're from, you realize Florida is its own thing. My brother lives in Florida. It is not, Florida is Florida. So then we can all agree with that. Very true. In the deep south,

they have Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina. That's what they're calling the Deep South. Let me tell you something. I went to South Carolina three months ago, four months ago. And I've been there like, you know, a little bit, peach jam and stuff like that. I had been in like South Carolina, South Carolina and spent time there. That's a whole different thing, man.

First off, they called themselves Carolina. I'm like, how did that happen? Yeah. I mean, you're just Carolina? Isn't there in North Carolina? That's confusing. And then like some of the way they talk down there, it's like, it's different than even what I'm typically hearing in the South.

So that feels like a unique place. But they say the deep south is Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina. The South, they say, is North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas. They say sort of south is Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia, and Oklahoma. What do you all think about that? Is Kentucky sort of the south? Like what, where does Kentucky fit into that conversation?

Kentucky definitely has like the Southern lifestyle, I would say. You know, like fraud chicken, fraud chicken, sweet tea, like that type of thing. But, you know, you look at a map and you think, well, Kentucky doesn't really look like it should be in the South. But I feel like it's kind of about the lifestyle. So I think that's why you would consider Kentucky the South. What do you think, Ryan? See, I kind of agree with you. Kentucky lifestyle more resembles Tennessee.

Tennessee is considered the South. I think Kentucky would be more online with Tennessee than being partnered with somebody like West Virginia or Virginia. They don't seem southern to me at all. So I would almost like bleed into the Tennessee grouping, North Carolina, Arkansas, that part. And yes, being part of the South. As someone who's going to spend a lot of time in the South this summer, I am curious, can we have some callers?

I'd love to hear from college. Like what, where does Kentucky sit in this conversation in the South? I mean, it's a very interesting, interesting map. Again, Florida is just Florida. And I think everybody agrees that it's just Florida, you know. And you know what the problem with Florida is, fellas? It's people haven't really been to Florida. They've been to Disney World, Disneyland.

They've been to, they've been to South Beach. Yeah. You know what I mean? In Miami. They haven't been to like Jacksonville, you know what I mean, or Gainesville. Anyville place in Florida is real Florida. And once you go to like real Florida, it's a different kind of thing, you know what I mean, compared to the rest of the country.

So I appreciate that they kind of said Florida's its own thing. The deep south, I'm going to Mississippi for that family reunion here in a couple of weeks, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina. Does that make sense? Is that the deep south? You all agree with that? Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, for sure. That is deep south.

South Carolina may be part of it because they've, like you said, they can split that state in half. It's different. Half of it is deep south and half of it's south, yeah. I went to a gas stage in South Carolina, and I don't know what he was saying at the register. I don't know what he was saying. I just put my money down.

I don't even know if I got the correct change. But whatever he was saying, I didn't know. And I was just nod in my head. because I didn't want any trouble. You know, I just nod to my head and put the money down and said, okay, I think you said words, but I don't know.

It's, you know what I mean? It's a different thing down there, right? And then the South, they have North Carolina, which is interesting because I feel like parts of North Carolina don't feel like as much of the South to me. Yeah, they got the mountains, that mountain part of North Carolina is beautiful. Yeah, and like when you go to like Rally Durham area,

which I was just there. Parts of it feel southern. Parts of it feel really, you know, almost like Midwestern or something like that. But they got Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, and then here's the one that was interesting to me, Texas. Is Texas the South? Like, what do you put Texas?

Because I feel like Texas is kind of like Florida, and it's just its own thing. It's a own thing. Am I wrong about that? It is tough to put it. them in that South category, but I don't know where else you'd put them, like you said, make them their own category

because they're not really West. They're not going to their own thing when it comes to right. Yeah, like they got their own brand of food. I feel like they got their own laws that doesn't apply to any other state in America. Like, it

doesn't feel like when the South holds a family reunion, Texas doesn't show up. Texas doesn't show up. Like, you know what I mean? Like, Florida. Florida's at the hotel. They had a late night. They're not going to make it.

I think everybody kind of knows it, right? Like, Florida's not coming. Texas just is not going to show up. They're going to hold their own reunion, it feels like. Right? They're kind of like that. And then sort of the south. Kentucky apparently in it.

Yeah, I'm doing well, man. I appreciate it. And for my Merry Monday, I had trifect a perfect weekend. It was celebrated our wedding anniversary. Had Father's Day with kids swimming and then watching UK baseball. So it couldn't get much better as far as I'm concerned. Regarding the south, you know, what I was taught in school or growing up was south of the Mason-Dixon line is the south. Kentucky is definitely in the south, in my opinion, regarding the deep south, how I define it, if you're driving through a state in the south in November or December and you're hitting June bugs, gnats, or flies, and they're bigger than the birds up north.

Okay. That's the deep south. That's the deep south. Okay. That's a good way to know it. I appreciate that. Because those bugs are, I mean, that's one thing I'm thinking about going to Mississippi, fellas, is, I mean, the size of the bugs is different down there. You know what I mean?

Like, it's a whole different thing, you know, compared to up here. Like a little fly, you know, will bother us. Down there, I'm like, is that like a Jurassic Park fly? What is that? You know what I mean? Are you going to load up on bug spray? Yeah, like those are the flies that where bug spray doesn't work. You know what I mean?

You need like something, you need something else, man, for those. Who's our next call? Let's go to Sue. Sue, what say you on this Merry Monday? And where do you rank Kentucky in terms of that conversation about the South? Well, I consider us South. I do get Southern Living Magazine. And you have to live in the South.

used to. They wouldn't even send it out unless you was considered in the South. Really? You couldn't get it in Ohio? You couldn't get it in Michigan? Correct. They had the Midwest Living Magazine. Yep.

Okay. They didn't want to send that past the line. Okay. So if you get Southern Living Magazine, that is the marker. Okay. Yes, you about what made me happy from the weekend was Pleasure Ridge Park, Jefferson County Public School, won the Kentucky High School Baseball Championship.

Nice. And I'd like to congratulate Coach Brad Burns and the team and his family. I'm looking out my back window and I can see his house. Coach Brad Burns, congratulations to Coach Brad Burns. You said, Pleasure Ridge High School? Pleasure Ridge Park High School. Pleasure Ridge Park High School. It's a Jefferson County Public School.

school. Oh, congrats to them on the baseball state championship. South End, what was that? It's a South End

Blue Collar School. Gotcha. Okay. Congrats to them. A lot of baseball, a lot of winning baseball right now. I mean, it's in the air. It feels like there's just,

you know, that kind of vibe has happened right now throughout the entire state and then it sets up perfectly for tonight's game against Texas A&M. Who's our next caller? Thank you for that.

call. We got another call. Let's go to Mary. Mary, how are you doing this Mary Monday? And where do you say about Kentucky being in the South? Can you guys hear me? We got you, Mary. How you doing? We got you, Mary. Can you hear me? We can hear you, Mary. Can you hear us? Yeah, I can. I've actually lived 11 years, Oklahoma, 30-some years, Kentucky, and 12 years, Mississippi. Okay, so you know it all. You're the expert. I've lived in, that's for sure. I think Kentucky is fairly south.

I get teased a lot about my southern accent, but I really got it from going to West Kentucky University where it's a lot of Tennessee folks. And just hanging out the dorms and classmates and stuff, that's where I've picked out my accent. Oklahoma and Texas are a lot more like than you'd think. So if Texas is south, I actually find Oklahoma, I thought it was very Midwestern,

the friendliest, nicest people you will ever meet. True, friend, kind people. Yeah, I agree. When you go, go ahead. No, I agree with Oklahoma. Go ahead. I think they're more Midwest. It feels like that.

Yeah. When you go to Mississippi, I found living there 12 years that if you're not a true Mississippian, you're not a Mississippi. There's sort of a little bit of an edge there. Yes. Now, that's real.

True Mississippian. that's real. That's real. We go to every summer. We would go to every summer as kids. And I would try to, like, mimic the accent, you know. Like, one time I told my uncle, I'll be there about 11 o'clock. That's what I told him, right? And he just looked at me and said, don't ever talk like that again.

He didn't want any part of it. And it just went south literally from there. We'll be back after this. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy, not quite.
