machine. Give us a shout on the phone. [phone]. One person writes, Matt, what are your thoughts on Arkansas choosing to play basketball on Thanksgiving against Illinois? No one will watch that going up against the NFL. I would disagree. I actually think it's a smart decision. I think what will happen is the game is on CBS. CBS will show the Detroit Lions game at 1 o'clock, and then the Arkansas game will come on after them. While most people will turn it to the Cowboys game, it's just natural. Some people will keep it on. I think I said this a couple years ago,

the highest rated game in college basketball was DePaul and Creighton because, Ryan, it came on right after a football game. And if you can be connected to the NFL, it's smart. You know, one of the things Cal was always very good at is creating events that people wanted to watch. So I actually think it's a pretty brilliant idea, to be honest with you. I'm with you. If you play this game, Arkansas, Illinois, on a Friday or Saturday afternoon, it's going to get lost in the shuffle on Thanksgiving weekend.

But you play it on Thanksgiving Day when everybody's watching sports and you got an alternative for watching football all day. I think a lot of people tune in to watch that basketball. It won't get nearly the rating the football gets, Drew, but it will get a good rating. And for college basketball, it will get a very good rating. And at a time of the year that most people are ignoring college basketball, I think it's a smart idea.

It's the same reason the Champions Classic is always good on that Tuesday night that they have it on, because there's no NFL on Tuesday night. It's on ESPN. And for many people, it's the only college basketball games they see until later on in the year. Yeah, I think it'll be huge. It's situated perfectly where your Lions game will end. Cowboys game hadn't really started yet, so people will get into it.

I'm interested because there's a couple of side stories. We have Orlando Antigua versus his old guys over in Arkansas. Yeah. But not many people know this. Big Z's brother plays for Illinois. So we're going to get a Big Z versus. little, I think his name is turned to T. Yeah, Big T and Big Z will be playing each other, the Avicages brothers.

I did not know that. It's Charlie X, C, X. No, okay. That clarifies it for me. Now I get, now I know what I'm talking about. So I guess that what is C in Roman numerals? X is 10. What is C?

Is that like? 50? What's 50? 1,000? No, it's it 50? 100, right? Yeah, I don't think it's 50. I don't know.

C or L's 50. You're right. Right. They're one of them. Either way, X, L's 50, because all the Super Bowl's everything. Yeah, we haven't seen a C in the Super Bowl, yeah. So what's a C's 100? 100. So what is XX? Charlie, that's, you put a 10 before something and it's subtract 10, right?

So X, CX, though, that wouldn't even be a real number. This is not what you're supposed to do. I think that's just our name. I think it's just a math equation. Would that be like 90 to minus 10? It would be 90 plus 10. So it'd be back to 100, you would think. But I don't know.

One person writes, Matt, do you have any comments on the big feud? I know you know both of these two, Mena Kimes and Clay Travis. Have you seen that, Shannon? The Mina Kimes, Clay Travis? They're going at each other right now. On Twitter? Do you know who Mina Kimes is, right? She's on the ESPN and then Clay Travis comes on after us.

Yeah. I guess they're fighting with each other. I'm Team Mina. She's great. She's very nice. And Clay is. Well, you know, my thoughts on Clay. I want you to take a guess, the three of you.

How many employees of the city of Lexington do you all think make over $100,000? All right, just take a guess. How many employees of the city of Lexington make over $100,000? This came out in the Herald Leader yesterday. Ryan, take a guess. Wow. I'll say $30,000. you think 30,000?

You think there are 30? First of all, how many people, do you know how many people live in Lexington? 250,000? So you think, you think 11% of the people in Lexington work for the city of Lexington? Work for the city? Okay, I misunderstood the question. It's employees of Lexington, the city, not just people in Lexington, I thought you were just people in Lexington in general.

Ryan? Shannon, was I unclear about what I said? I don't know. I was going to guess a lot less than 30,000 people, though. But I mean it was clear I meant people who worked for the city of Lexington, right? Okay, my bad. I thought you meant just Lexington people in general. All right.

Let's try again. How many people that work for the city of Lexington make over $100,000? I'm going to reduce my... my number now to about 4,000. Okay. All right. Drew, what's your guess?

I'm going to follow Ryan and just take a zero off of it. I'll say 400. 400. Okay. Shannon, what's your guess? 600. Well, Shannon wins. 641 people make over $100,000.

Didn't Google that, by the way. Didn't Google it. So you win that. Ryan, just a curiosity. Like, you think people make a lot of money, right? Like, if you, to think 4,000 city employees would make $100,000. Like, how much do you think, like, cops and all those people make? I was thinking more like the head of the water department, the head of the LFUCG, you know, all these people that have the office jobs.

You thought there was 4,000 of those people. Yeah. All right. All right. loaded city government out there with 4,000 people making $100,000. It's 641. Here's the part that was interesting to me. Can you guess what job in Lexington has the most people making over $100,000?

Anybody know? Not often, no. There are 240 firefighters that make over $100,000 in Lexington. I had no idea. I didn't realize there are 220 police officers that make. over 100,000. There are 43 police officers to make over $150,000. They probably deserve it. I mean, you put your life on the line. I'm not saying they don't deserve it. I actually, I mean, I'm fine with it. I just didn't realize, Drew, that like there

were that many. I mean, that's good. I guess, you know, I always say, police, fire, and teachers should make more money. I just had no idea that there were that many that made that amount of money. Because if you'd ask me, I would have guessed like 150 people. I would have never guessed the numbers that they were. those two, and I could be wrong, I'm going to guess there's a lot of overtime that pushes that's counting, but I know they work crazy hours and get paid very well once they get So that's, you hit it. The reason it's that much is a lot of police officers and fire, firemen and women are making overtime because they don't have the staffing for a full thing. So a lot of it,

Ryan, like Drew said, is overtime. Well, like we said earlier in the show, man, those guys deserve it being a selfless and putting their lives at stake like that every day. More power to them. And the mayor, Shannon, does not make the most money in the city. The mayor is like the eighth highest paid person in the city. The fire chief, the police chief, they're like four or five, seven jobs that make more money than the mayor. Another thing Shannon, I wouldn't have thought was necessarily the case. I would think the person who's running the town should be the person who's making the most.

So the woman, I mean, the mayor is the boss of the police chief, but he makes more money. She does. That's, uh, do you feel, that's kind of interesting, isn't it? Do you feel a sort of inferior if you're making less than your employees? Yeah, I don't know. I mean, what are the jobs where an employee makes more money than the boss? Like, radio.

That might be right. Some radio. No, I mean, like athletes. Athletes make more than the, athletes probably make more than the general manager in general. It's usually probably Shannon some sort of, of entertainment thing where the talent would make more. But you just don't see that a lot, I think, in regular jobs.

And I just found that was interesting for the city. Makes me wonder if it's the same like in Louisville or is it just Lexington just a little different. I don't know. I mean, in New York, maybe 30,000 people shouldn't make over $100,000. It's got to scale based on the population. It'd be on scale. Chet Lemon notes that would be $3 billion a year that we're paying our city price. or even just part of it.

I like the idea that in Ryan's mind, 11% of the town works for the city. Like really, the city just exists to have jobs for each other. It's the only reason it exists. Who's up next, Shannon? Maddie. Maddie, go ahead, Maddie.

Hey, Hey, good morning, Philers. How y'all doing? Good morning, sir. How are you? Hey, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, I can speak for. I think I can speak for all of BBN when we're saying we're rooting for your girl and keep on, keeping on.

But, hey, I want to give you all a quick fact about fire helmets. Okay. I used to be the product manager for Bullard fire helmets, which are made in Cynthia, right there in here. I feel like there's a lot of stuff made in, so wait a minute, Post-it notes are made in Cynthia. Right. You're telling me.

They're made right next door. They're made right next door. And you're telling me fire helmets are made in Cynthia, too. Yes, and Bullard has about 20, 25% market share in that. So they're really good fire helmet, like a really good fire helmet. Okay, so like the helmets I saw, hang on just a second. Hang on just, okay, well, forget it. Go ahead.

Yeah, no, I was going to say Lexington and Louisville, they both wear Bullard fire helmets. But, no, I'm saying that's in, you were talking about firefighters in your first segment and watching them do what they do in New York. And, well, we make fire helmets here in Kentucky. And we're making fire helmets that we're putting on the heads of these guys and these gals that are running into an inferno. And it's what we're doing. We're protecting them because they're running into an inferno. Well, I think it's to save people like us, save people like us.

Yeah. So it's made right here in Kentucky. It's made right here in Kentucky. It's made right here. I appreciate the call. So is it made in Kentucky. It is made in Kentucky in Cynthia. Bullard's fire helmets.

I feel like they've told us that before. I've heard that before, but I don't think I've connected it, right? There's a basketball connection. The Guinness World Record for Hard Hats was set. Remember they put them in Rupp Arena? That was Bullard that put hard hats all over for fans. Remember that? I've still got my hard hat.

Wow. That was when UK got really mad at me. Yeah, you wanted them up top. They only did the lower bowl. That's right. Oh, yeah. Now that's a story, Shannon. That was

We want to bring that back up again. Well, no, no, I'm not trying to stir the pot. This was many years ago. The controversy was they put fire helmets and they only put them in the lower bowl. And I was of the opinion that if you can only give them the half, you should give them to the higher pole. Right. And that was not a popular opinion at the time. You needed a hard bet.

People got really mad. at me. I didn't realize that was Bullards. That was Bullards that did those fire helmets. Okay. Got you. Yeah, that's like a, I'm having, that's like a PTSD memory. I'm having Ryan. Because you remember that was a huge. That was a huge thing. There's a whole level of people getting mad at me, Ryan, that people have no idea happens. Like you wouldn't, you know, you think it's just bobbing your I-23 on Twitter. But then there's the whole Matt stop criticizing the fire. helmet's part of a thing that happens sometimes. We were all together.

We just did a remote show or something. We were together when that was starting to happen. And I remember that day, absolutely. I also remember being in the car with you one time for another disagreement about with UK about tickets. Yeah, but things are good now. Let's focus on that. Yeah, let's focus on the positive. Things are much better now.

Had a good meeting recently with Mitch Barnhart. Things are much better now. Good, good, good. But there were days back in the past when things like fire helmets would cause issues. Hey, we have a new sponsor here in Central Kentucky. If you're looking for new furniture, appliances, or beds. Shannon, how about P-Rats? You know, P-Rats, they give you more.

It's a locally owned and operated appliance furniture and mattress store. It's been here over 75 years committed to quality right here locally. They've been voted the best. appliance retailer in the bluegrass for the last six years in a row. Their team isn't just knowledgeable. They're experts. It's P-Rats. They had that commercial.

They give you more. Well, now they have top-notch service, and they're their one-stop shop for furniture and appliance needs out on Richmond Road. Don't forget, it's P-Rats for mattresses and all your needs. Nobody beats P-Rats. We'll take a break. It'd be right back. KSR.

Takey Sports Radio. 859-280-2287. We're going to go right back to the

phones in a second. We're still going to finish the football. facts. Matter of fact, let's do one right here. All right. Ryan, we didn't get to finish the offensive and defensive football player facts. Shannon rules whether or not they're interesting. You've had some time to improve yours, I think, Ryan.

So you're up. We're going through the starting lineups of offensive defense. Give me a player. We've only got two left on offense starters. So we got Barion Brown. I mean, we all know about Barionni's on every preseason, all American team as a return specialist. We all know he's set state records in tracking

Field in Nashville. So maybe what you don't know about Berion is that his whole family has moved here to help support him because he's had a total change of attitude. Drew has already said the quote that he's made, it's a shame that Will Levis and Devin Lerry didn't get this version of Beron Brown because he's kind of matured, does the work now in the film room or maybe he wasn't, is the effort now on the practice field where maybe he wasn't in the past. But the one thing I asked Dane, I said,

tell me something about Barron that nobody knows. And Dane said he's probably the best video gamer on the whole team. He's a big gamer. And that's what he's, he's probably the best, like playing Madden and all that stuff. He's the best. All right, Shannon. Interesting? Not interesting.

I feel like everybody on the team's a big video gamer. I'm going not interesting. No. What about the fact that his family moved here? Is that interesting? No. Shannon is just not finding what Ryan says. Interesting.

This is a kid. Ryan knows really well. And he came out with he's a gamer and his family lives here. You know, listen. He's tried. He's tried. He's tried.

He's tried. He had 24 hours. He did have, he had 24 more hours and that's what he came up with. Still couldn't do it. All right, Drew. I'm at safety. I'm starting with Zion Childress. And I struggle with this one.

I'm not kidding you. I've probably put an hour and a half work of just Zion Children's, including I listened to Mario's podcast, all of it, because he had Zion on as a guest. Oh, Mario did a podcast with Zion Children. Yeah, so maybe that'll be my fact. But I learned, even though he's a star safety, he was a permanent team captain last year. He was a great quarterback in high school. He ran for 3,000 yards and had 21 touchdowns passes as a senior.

His nickname is Champ and the best random fact I could find about him. from the What's Next podcast is he says he is the best video game player on the team. Oh, no, no. I didn't know Ryan was going to walk me into that. Oh, I think you're going to have to give Drew his first. I guess my fun fact will be he was a guest on the What's Next podcast with Mario Maitland. All right. Shannon, are you going to give Drew his first X?

You can do it. I tried. There's not much out there. Nope. Oh, man. You can't give me he was on a podcast and he's a good video game. All right, I'll tell you what, we're going to have to throw this out to the like, phone a friend or throw it out to the people.

I committed an embarrassing amount of time to that. I mean, I can only find what I can find. Here's the job of you listeners. Whoever finds the best Zion Childress fact, Shannon, that is correct. Yeah. It is correct. It has to be correct. And it's the first one that sends it to me.

Okay? If I get the same fact multiple times, I'm not going to give the, I'm not giving it to multiple people. Whoever is the first person to send me a good fact, I will give tickets to the first home basketball game for Mark. Oh, nice. How's that right? So the first, and then we'll see if we get by tomorrow's show on the text machine,

772-774-5-254, an interesting Zion children's fact since Drew was not able to find one. Who's up next? Joe. Joe, go ahead, Joe. Thanks a lot, Matt. I got tickled while I go over and you're all talking about going down to Texas and playing the longhorns. I really think if the cast can go down there and have a balanced attack, and what I mean by that is if we avoid the big injuries on offense

to like offensive alignment, you know, whatever on offense, if we're a balanced attack, I really like our chances down to Texas. And I go back a couple years ago, but you want to Texas A&M, and we probably should have won a game down. You should have won, yeah. In front of what, 100,000 people. So I don't know what the hook of harms. I've never been to a game there.

I guess it's got to be pretty intimidating because there's, but hook them hard. So I can't wait for our fan base to experience a wind down there. It should be a great. It should be a great atmosphere. You know, Ryan, it's hard, and I appreciate the call to pick that game in particular because it's so late in the year. I think whether or not there's injuries will matter at that point.

I think, honestly, how good our record is will matter at that point. Like, is everybody still engaged? You know, is Texas playing for a playoff berth? Like, there's a lot of variables that are hard to predict because that game, Ryan, is so late in the year. And that's it. you said the one thing I was going to say about Texas. They could be overlooking Kentucky by that point because they're thinking maybe they don't

have a chance at a playoffs or maybe they're overlooking them to their last game of the season. So I can play into that because the way it plays out in the schedule. Yeah. And they've lost their first two running backs, Drew. So, I mean, lost them for the year, right? Those guys are out for the year their top two running backs. Is that my correct? What I'm sure, the other one's significant injury.

I'd be honest, I don't know if it's for the whole year. But certainly that was a huge hit to their backfield. that's why when Joseph earlier talking about injuries, show me a team that hasn't have injuries in camp. It's every year, every team. That's called football. And other teams have it much worse than Kentucky. As a program, with the exception of the year we lost, Levis and the year we Bowden was playing

quarterback, I feel like we've been pretty fortunate with injuries, Ryan. Don't you think, I mean, you think about what's an injury that crippled the team. Really, Levis's two years ago is the one. but I think in general that hasn't happened to us a lot. Yeah, knock on wood, yeah, because we've had seasons. I remember when you, Rich Brooks was here and was just every week. Some starter was getting injured, so it can definitely happen, but it's not happened here recently for Kentucky, knock on wood.

Half of the SEC is down and running back right now. We're not unique. Yeah, they have lost a bunch of years. It's good that he's back after a couple weeks. Bob and Jamestown. Bob, go ahead, Bob, 859, 280, 2287. Matt, you were talking last week about about your car, you were thinking about another time.

Have you decided what you were going to do? No, I still haven't got, I've been gone, so I still haven't even got my car back to see what the damage was. So we'll see. Have you thought about maybe trying to get Eddie Franklin to find you the same car with just low miles? They are out there, you know. Yeah. Your sponsor, Eddie. Oh, you mean Don?

Well, Eddie is. Don's passed away about 15 years ago. Eddie's running the show. Anyway. Look at Bob's. You can find a six. You know what I mean? Bob's just name dropping.

He's like Eddie. You know Eddie. Eddie's my man. All right, I got you. He might find you one out there. Okay, I got you. I'll find the car. Don't worry about it.

I'll find it, Bob. Thank you. Anything else? Should Major League Baseball ban the intentional walk? Yeah, they're talking about that, Shannon. Banning the intentional walk. I appreciate the call. Saying that they, again, trying to make more offense

in the game. What do you think about banning the intentional walk? It's not going to work. If you don't want to pitch to a guy, you won't pitch to them. So you'll just intentionally, unintentionally walk the guy. It's the same thing. It wastes time. Well, apparently they say that if the umpire believes you are intentionally walking them, they can move the player to second base, right? Oh, God. This is T-ball? What do we do? I'm telling you. Well, what do you think, Ryan? I mean, there's no other sport where you can look at the best player on the other team and make it to where they don't get to play. So that's the theory behind it.

You can't, maybe just that where you catcher stands up and holds his arm out. Eliminate that. But you still got to pitch around. They already have eliminated that. But they want you to pitch. They don't want people walking Aaron Judge. They want them to have to confront him. So we'll see.

We'll take a break. Be right back. It's KSR. Last night, a blown call changed a game. This morning, the internet lost its mind. Highlights are trending. Opinions are flying. And nobody's telling you exactly what happened.

Yep. So since I've been back, our streaming numbers are back to are at a high number. Our downloads are at a high number. Bars business is up. The text messages to the text machine are actually above normal recently. So everything is on really good pace, except the phone lines are much slower now. And I want to, why do you think that is? Like you guys take more calls when I'm gone.

So like presumably like people would get more into the habit. Do you think people are like this is European mad? I'm happy. Yeah. Like like why do you think the phone lines have been slow? Every other thing suggests things are back to normal or above normal. But the phone lines have been slow. We just need something to give away.

I feel like people will call if we give something away. I know that we, I know. But like I want to have communication with people. That's what I enjoy. It feels like they just, it's, I don't know. You allow Bob to talk. I mean, that last call. Oh, no.

I mean, a secret is Bob always goes last. If those of you are sitting at home, Shannon, and you're wondering, are their phone lines open? Just see if we go to Bob, right? Because if we go to Bob, then you know their phone lines open. They're also trying to kick me out of this hotel. Apparently check out, Drew, was at 11, and I thought it was at 12. Oh, oh.

So they keep knocking on the door and opening it, and they see me on the radio. If they kick me out, that will be why they have done it. Alabama, Ryan, hired. They have a general manager for football whose job is basically to manage the roster. Something we need at Kentucky. I don't think we have that. Do we have that position right now? Probably not an official general manager, but guys that help, like,

director of football operations, kind of probably do some of that. I think we need an official. general manager. I mean, I think at this point, when you're trying to manage a roster that's 85 and will soon be a hundred and ten under the new rules, you've got to have a general manager. Like, they have it in the NFL. You're going to have to have it here. And I saw Alabama is going, has paying their general manager. They just gave them an extension, $825,000 a year. So they are treating that like a real coach, like a high paying coach. Drew, I think that's where you got, you got to do that, right? And you've probably need one for basketball too, but you really need one for football. Yeah, that kind of money. That's a city of Lexington employee, money right there. I agree. I think basketball and football both need them and it should have had them a couple years ago once you started adding NIL on the transfer portal because, you know, coaches,

they have a lot on their plate, not excusing what they have to do, but not all of them are cut out to be handling contracts or looking at the portal. You need someone to manage that so a coach can coach. It's a different skill set. I mean, it's a different skill set. Right now, I think UK football is asking a big part of Mark Stoops' job is to raise money. And I don't think Ryan, that's his, like, I'm not saying he's not good at it. I actually think he is. But that really is not what he's trained in doing. You need to, in the same way that when I work at the radio station or the TV station,

they have people whose designated job is to sell our show. That's not we're supposed to do it. They sell it. Similarly, I think there have to be people whose job it is to raise money from boosters to manage the roster so that it is not Mark Stoops that's having to do that all the time. Wouldn't you agree? Of course, yeah. Coaches want to coach, man. They don't want to have to spend their time out there raising money, talking to boosters, you're managing the roster.

Look at the transfer portal. You need somebody. I think it's a brilliant idea to hire somebody like a general manager to handle all that so your coach can coach. Mike Gundy, who I generally consider a buffoon, But he gave a, he gave, I thought he had a good comment yesterday. He said the season's about to start. Tell your agents to stop calling and ask about money. We'll talk at the end of the year.

And I actually think that's a completely reasonable position, Shannon, for him to have, which is, okay, we did all the NIL stuff. Now the season's starting shut up. I actually in that respect to agree with Mike Gutty. Yeah, I think that you've got to have somebody like that to manage that aspect of your program, whether it be program, business, whatever it is, you've got to have somebody that fills that role. Now, speaking of Shannon, I've got something that's going to worry you. I read this yesterday, and I thought, it's going to worry me, okay.

What is it? This is scary, and I think it's going to, I think Shannon will think it's the scariest. Listen to this. This is crazy, but this is a true story. Argentina has a new president. His name is Javier Malay. He's kind of a weird dude. You ought to look him up.

His hairstyle's insane. He won the presidency. I think he was like a TV show host or something, and like, it's kind of an odd guy. But he's helped, I guess, turn the country around a little bit. And he has an idea that I think is, well, he wants to use AI, Shannon, to predict criminal behavior. He wants to put input AI on every citizen in Argentina so that they can predict who is most likely to do a crime. And then those people would be watched more carefully than everyone else. Because AI would say, this person will ultimately be more likely to do X, Y, or Z.

Does that sound terrible? That sounds awful. Yeah. I mean, I guess if you commit like a petty crime, now all of a sudden you're going to be watched at every move you make. But I mean, what about the people who go throughout their life don't ever commit a crime and then, you know, at the age of 60, do something awful. Commit a murder.

Like AI can't forget that. But the theory behind it is AI does, we have AI to do all this stuff. You know, they're using AI to, to disqualify. to decide what's more likely, etc. He goes, why don't we just use it for crime as well?

He was like, we won't illegally search them, but we'll, like, put the cameras in cities when they walk by, the cameras will follow them more than someone

unlikely to commit a crime. No, I still don't like it. Do you, do you like this? I know. I think it's terrible. Yeah.

I think it's terrible. But I also think it's the kind of thing that if we let AI, like, take over the world, the kind of thing we're going to do. It's going to happen. Because people, people will convince themselves,

well, why should they follow this grandma down the street? She's not going to do it. Ryan's more likely to do it, follow him. But that just doesn't seem right to me. But I do think. Granny's intentions, though. Granny may have a knife underneath that purse or something. I mean, like, you don't know.

You don't know. Yeah. But I just think that's an interesting story. Because this dude in Argentina is popular enough that if anybody were going to try it, I can see the country letting him do it because he's kind of been successful. so far as president and he would be i just think that's something to watch because that sounds like something that people could talk themselves into that i think is a pretty terrible idea who's next syndicate done done how are you syndicate hey what's up guys how you're doing welcome back mad i've

been enjoying the show uh i know you're talking about the collars have been down um but it's i could smell it in the air right now guys and i think it's because we haven't seen no action yet from the sports it's just a lot of talk of of what's going on. Yeah, it has been slow in sports news. Like, this has been, I think, the slowest. I always say early August, early to mid-August is the hardest time to do radio in the whole year because people want football to come, but nothing's happening.

There's really not anything to say. So I'm with you, Syndicate. There's just, we're all just kind of guessing. Right. And I'm about to break the story on Jasper Johnson. I can't do it right now on the show right now, but it's coming out. I think I'm going to be the one to break it. Why can't you do it right now?

Oh, because I have to do it. And I don't want to put a plug in for it because, you know, I do radio too. No, no, no, we're not promoting your show. But why don't you? Right. I'm not. I'll tell you what. If you, how about this?

If you break the story here, Sidnickett. But you know, I'm a hometown Harrisburg guy. And then it ends up being correct. Then we'll give a plug for your show on here. Isn't that? That feels like a win-win, right? Like you give us the information. It ends up correct.

Ryan, doesn't that sound like a win-win? I like it because Syndicate is, he's, he's in on the Johnson family down there. So if he may, you know it would be him. You can verify that he's the, he's a good source, Ryan? 100%, yeah. All right. So, Syndicate, I know you. I didn't know you were connected with the Johnson family, but I know you.

Give us the scoop. And if you give us the scoop and it ends up correct, I am glad to promote your show. As a matter of fact, if you want, I'll even come on your show. Oh, that sounds good. There we go. And I don't go on shows. You understand that. Like, Ryan goes on the shows.

I don't go on the show. So if you, if you went on the show. All right. So if you want to give the scoop, the world is listening. Then if it ends up true, we will promote your show. And you can launch from there, Cindy. Hmm. I don't know.

These are my friends. You know what I'm saying? So I have to wait to the right time to put it out there. So what's the right time? If you tell me the right time, I understand that. And let's, let's schedule you for the right time. What's the time? Okay.

Well, we'll talk about that. We can't see. Shannon. He's being, he's being, you're being shady syndicate. You're being shady, syndicate. Oh, no. Oh, no, but I'm just wanted to say the football's about to start. I smell high school football in the air right now.

And it's going to be a great time for high school sports. I hope you're not all talk. I feel like you're all talk. We'll find out. Oh, no. We'll find out. All right. You let me know.

I appreciate the call. He didn't come through with it. I believe him. He can get the story, but you don't want to betray your basically like family, you know, at the same time. Let the kid have his moment. All talk. Yeah.

I don't think he's all talk. I believe that he knows. Oh, yeah. But like, what's the point of telling that he knows if he's not going to tell us when he's going to find out? Yeah, I know something you don't know. I mean, sometimes that does happen where you've like realized you know something, but you can't say it.

But like, if he's going to break it somewhere else, why doesn't he? you just break it here, Shannon, right? Yeah, yeah. Do you think Jasper's going to go to Kentucky, Ryan? I didn't. Even two weeks ago, now I'm flipping thinking, yes, he's coming to Kentucky. That's just my own opinion. I have no source.

That's just my opinion. Yeah. Well, UK Federal Credit Union has an opinion that they are the, well, not opinion, it's a fact. The official credit union in the University of Kentucky. They've served the UK since 1937 and they're here for life. They're voted Forbes Best in-state Credit Union. You can join on campus. There's two locations.

Or online at UKFCU.org. It is UFederal Credit Union. Banking only better. Membership eligibility required, fairly insured by NCUA, an equal housing lender. It's UK Federal Credit Union. We'll take a break right back.

859280-2287. Draft King's segment of the day. You can go to Draft Kings. get yourself ready for the opening football game Saturday. Yes, we picked the Little League baseball game yesterday. Shannon was the only one that got it right. Shannon picked Bernie, Texas. We all picked Florida, and Bernie, Texas.

Shannon was the winner. So you're 1 in Little League World Series picks. That's right. I have no idea what I'm talking about, but it was just a guess. Well, let's see if you can do it again. The Florida team playing again, home of Lee Corso, Lake Mary, Florida, 2 and 1. They play Staten Island, New York. They're going to play them tonight.

Winner moves on. Loser is out. Ryan, Lake Mary, Florida, or Staten Island, New York. So it's an elimination game. So I like the New Yorkers. I'm going to pick them on their backs against the wall. So New York team. You believe in them when the backs against the wall?

You believe in Staten Island? All right? Yes. Home of Pete Davidson, Staten Island Ferry. What do you got, Drew? Oh, I love the Staten Island Ferry. One of my favorite things to do. I got a ride with the ferry here.

Shannon, you're going to go two for two, that against Lake Mary again? Nope, I'm taking the Florida team tonight. I think they get it tonight. I'm taking the Florida team, and you want to know why? Have you read about this Staten Island manager? What a jerk he is? Have you seen these stories?

Oh, no. So he did this interview where he was complaining that Aaron Judge was at the Little League game. They played a major league game at that stadium. Did you see that? Not at the Little League Stadium, but at another stadium close by. And Aaron, he complained that. Aaron Judge did not individually meet with his team.

He felt like he should have, even though there's pictures of Aaron Judge meeting with a lot of people. He didn't feel it. And then he said, Aaron Judge owes it to us. And then they talked about how he met David Cohn, you know, the former baseball pitcher. And the Staten Howard manager goes, David Cohn knew who I was. I didn't know who he was. And he said it very arrogantly. So you're complaining that Aaron Judge doesn't come over and then you say you don't know

David Cohn. You're a baseball guy and you don't know who David Cohn is. Yes. You're not a baseball guy if you don't know who that is. Yeah, and he's like, well, David Cohn knew who I was. I didn't know who he was. So I'm for Florida so that the Staten Island manager calms down a little bit. Who's next? Let's go to Rick. Rick. By the way, people are saying that that thing I said about Argentina, Drew, that that's the plot of minority report. Did you know that? It is. And also Tom Cruise's other movies, Mission Impossible, back in the 90s showed us they have masks. can defeat facial recognition software. So Tom Cruise is way out in front of this. I wonder if the Argentina guy got the idea from watching Tom Cruise movie. Maybe so.

Do you think that's what it is? Maybe. All right. Go ahead, Rick. Hey, guys, first time caller, a long time. Who are? What's going on? Hey, just speaking of baseball, I wonder how long is it going to be before these family

or one of these kids or something. They're a little league for NIL. Well, I think those kids are allowed to do it now. I mean, I just don't think kids are going to. But, like, I wouldn't be surprised if one of these Little League World Series teams wins and the kid gets to do NIL. I mean, kids have always been able to do NIL. The only reason they don't or didn't for a long time was to preserve their college eligibility. But now that it won't ruin their college eligibility, I would assume if a kid ever has a chance, of course, I think he would do it now.

Yeah, I wouldn't blame him. I got one more thing. I was thinking of the one and done era here. Who, to you guys, each one of y'all, who is your most disappointing or heartbreaking? I know with Reed being so close to everybody, he's probably on a lot of the top of the list for everybody. But who of each one of you guys would be your most disappointing or heartbreaking or frustrating or whatever, one and donener? But what do you mean heartbreaking? man. I consider read a massive

success story. You mean like for not coming back? Yeah, just, you know, it bothered you a little bit because man, I feel like they all, I mean, I just assumed, yeah, I appreciate the call. I just assumed everyone was leaving always.

So I didn't get heartbroken, Drew, because I just assumed everyone was leaving. I do think the guy that should have come back that it would have helped the most was oddly Dakari Johnson. because that year had he come back, I think the Ulys Murray team would have been really good. And I think he probably should have come back and he didn't.

But it's not heartbreaking because I always drew assumed all those guys were leaving every single year. Yeah, one that comes to mind is my guy, the dragon, Khalil Whitney. I mean, he didn't make it until the end of the year and he has not even sniffed the NBA. He's been in the G League a little bit. Now he's international. I think if he had just seen it through and maybe lowered his expectations and grown and, you know, gotten improved through the Kentucky system, he would have been better off.

But leaving in January just to chase an NBA dream that didn't exist. I hated to see that one. I was a big fan of him when he got here. I might say Justin Edwards, just because, you know, he was going to be at one point the number one pick and ends up struggling most of the year. We saw him cry on the bench a couple times. You know, he went to a mental health coach this past season,

and now he's struggling to make an NBA team. I think I might even go with him. I hope he makes it for the same reason that I hope Chris were lit. I mean, all those guys, like even with what we said earlier about Justin's comments, I hope he makes it. I mean, those guys, you know, Shannon, you made mistakes when you were a freshman in college. I'm sure, right? Yeah, I'm glad that, you know, Twitter didn't exist back then. Yeah, so, I mean, I hope he's able to make it.

I think of the guys who might have come back, who could have had the biggest impact of the team. Dakari Johnson is the one to me. he if he had come back, I think would have changed the notion of that next year's team, and he really considered it, and I wish he had stayed. Who's next? Sean. Sean, go ahead, Sean. Guys, thanks for the call.

I did my part with Club Blue. I did buy Kentucky Blue Light going through Kentucky yesterday, so I'm excited about that. Good. Did you enjoy it? Did you feel like you were helping the team? I feel like I'm helping a team, but I haven't opened it. yet because they only had one six-pack left, and I want to wait until Saturday. So my comment is I try to keep an open mind when it comes to politics and try to raise my kids the same way.

And watching the DNC, and Coach Kerr gave a speech, which I thought it was pretty good, although I'm a Republican, but I try to keep an open mind. But social media was blasting Coach Kerr for being on that stage. Yeah, they should shut up. I mean, they should shut up because if it was a Republican, coach, they would have, look, Bruce Pearl would have spoken at the Republic. Bruce Pearl does a political post every day, and he's allowed to do that. Oh, yeah.

And Hulk Hogan spoke at the Republican convention. Just because somebody's a coach or an athlete doesn't mean they don't get to have an opinion. Why is so much hate? I just couldn't believe the hatred. I'm with you. I appreciate the call. It's because people, they just lose their mind about politics. and I hope, I think we'll get over that after this election.

This is kind of unique, but we'll see. Cornbread hemp, if they took cornbread hemp, Shannon, they'd feel better, right? That's right. That's what we all need. You're not going to get worked up. You take cornbread hemp. There's nothing to be worked up about. You're laid back, you're relaxed.

It'll help you sleep. promo code is KSR, cornbread hemp.com, full spectrum flower-only hemp, CBD. Everybody on this show uses it. It helps us all rest. You should as well. Cornbreadhemp.com. Tomorrow we are at KS Bar. It'll be Wings Day.
