Welcome to Hour 2 of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Now here's Matt Jones. Welcome back. It is Kentucky Sports Radio. Hour number two here at KS Bar and Grill. Remember we have trivia tonight. I've written about two-thirds of the questions, still got about a third to do, ready to go.

Get your team out here. finalist wins the big prize in May, but this is our November session. So you got a team tonight? Still efforting. Have you stopped? You made the finals last year. You haven't been to the last two. What's wrong?

Yeah, my team is slowly dispersing. I don't know, maybe they're getting NIL money from somebody else. I'm not offering enough NAL money. Why don't you like start to, why don't you, listen, you could right now form a team. Yeah. You could say on the air, do you want to be Ryan Lemon's team, and you could form a team? Yeah, I don't want to do that. Part of the fun for me is sitting with my friends and talking with my friends.

So do you just not have any friends? I don't have enough friends. Okay. Well, get your friends. I miss, like, you not knowing the answers. And the perplexed look when I give the questions from you. Yes, the, you know, name me a foreign country in South America. See, that's name a foreign country in South America is not a whole.

hard question. Like, there's a lot of them. Well, your question would be name five. Okay, well, let's try. Do you know five countries in South America? Drew, he's named the question. Conceivably, Shannon, he should be able to answer the question that he named. Let's see if he can do it. Let's see. Can you name five countries in South America? Brazil. There's one. Chili. Chili's too good. That's food as well. Argentina. Three. Now you've got, you're almost there.

El Salvador. That's kind of central America. Oh. But I'm not going to. It's just a pass. Let's just let's just call that. We'll call that more. I think it's technically North America, but I won't hold it against you.

I'll give you two more guests. Oh. Think about there's two that kind of sound a lot. There's a Peru. Peru is not one of them, but I'll still give you that one. Okay. Come on, you're getting there. One more.

This is why I need my teammates. You know. You also have to bring something to the team. So, Curisal. Are you just on the sandals website? Yeah, I don't. I think Curiselle counts. I think that's in the Caribbean, though, isn't it?

I don't know where Curisale is. It's in the Caribbean. Yeah. The ABC, Arruis. and there's a B island and C Island. But the Umer's the Caribbean's not South America. A little further south. I thought it was South America.

A little further so. You thought the Caribbean was South America? Just because it's south of here? I thought those three islands were part of South America. No. What I was going to say? Uruguay, Paraguay. Oh, yeah.

You know the Guis? The Guai brothers. Yes. Columbia? Columbia, I should have thought of that one. Yeah. Ecuador? Well, that was an attempt.

So it's okay. That's why you want your team to kind of help. help you talk it out. So you might need to be working on that. I got some questions to people one day. Okay. One person writes, Matt, I heard you the other day talking about U of L football versus Stanford, and you mentioned the they won't shut out Lincamp.

I've heard you say that many times. I must have missed the explanation, why do you all always bring up Lincamp? So one night, Ryan, you and I were driving somewhere. Where were we going? maybe to Middlesboro or back from Middlesboro or something like that. We were driving, and I really like at night to turn on AM radio, right, especially on a Friday night, hear local broadcast of their high school football and basketball teams. You tune it in local.

Remember that time we were in Utah and we listened to that random basketball game and then we typed, we wrote the guy that was calling it and all that. I like doing that. So we were driving one night and Lynn Camp was playing Campbellsville. I couldn't remember who they were playing. I think Campbell was playing Campbell'sville. And Campbell'sville was up, I want to say something like 45 to nothing, right? Wasn't it something like that?

It was ridiculous. It was an absurd score, and it was the fourth quarter, and the Lynn Camp announcers were clearly like, you know, trying to buy time, but also, Drew, trying to stay paused. You know, that's something you got to do on the high school broadcast. Got to keep your audience engaged. And Lynn Camp was driving, presumably with their fourth string against Campbellville's fourth string. and they were like first and goal or something, and the Lynn Camp announcer, down 45-0-0 goes, we're scoring right here, we're scoring right here.

If there's one thing I've always said, you can't hold Lynn Camp scoreless. And I found that right, and I laughed and cackled. They're like, you're exactly right. There's one thing I know. That's it. You cannot hold Lynn Camp scorless. And he was right.

They scored, and we celebrated in the car. You cannot hold Ryan Lindkamp scoreless. He was doing such a good job. We were hanging on every second of that play, trying to see if they were going to actually score. So there you go. You cannot. Cannot hold down, Lynn Camp.

Cannot do that. Another person writes, Matt, I had this conversation with my friends the other day. What is the best comfort TV show for each of you all? A show that you don't necessarily think is good, but you'll watch because it makes you feel good, and provides good background. So when I was younger, that was an easy answer,

the Andy Griffith show. When I was younger, you just put on Andy Griffith. Shannon, I've seen all of them 75 times. That probably would have been my answer. But now it's not really on television much, so I don't really put it on anymore. My go-to, nothing else is on. I just have to have something passing the time,

which is harder to do now because you have streaming and so many options. It was for many, many years, Seinfeld, and it's probably shifted in the last few years, too. I will just turn on. It feels like Comedy Central only runs the office. So I will just put the office on. And as long as it's not an episode in the last year or two, if it's one of the episodes before that, I'll do that one. Do you have one? I only watch two shows, and that's practically it.

You only watch two shows? If I'm watching TV, if it's not a game, I'm just watching two shows. date line and friends I think it's probably Friends is probably my answer They still do date lines 24 hours on a loop Okay those are old ones

It's not those are not new Oh yeah nights Yeah Have to go with you So wait me you watch the 24 hour Dateline chance Oh yes That's what I go to sleep to

Turn it on Probably get really engrossed And one I haven't seen before Then one will come on I have seen And boom I'm out I'm out fall asleep Dayline Wait a minute

You recognize the old date line Oh, yeah. Me too. You get invested in them, don't you? You get frustrated, though, when you're like 20 minutes in, you're like, wait a minute, I've seen that bathtub before. Yeah. Oh, yeah. This is the one in Maine where, yeah.

This is the girlfriend did it. Yeah. I remember that. I've seen the whole catalog myself. All right. What about you? Definitely Dateline. I've seen most of them more than once.

Even turned it on last night. I caught a rerun. If not that, probably chopped. Chopped. Yeah. Chopped. I enjoy a good episode of Chopped. It doesn't matter the theme or the season.

There's 50 seasons. They're just people cooking random items because I like to play kill the fridge at home. About once a week. Just try to get rid of everything. Whatever's in there, try to come up with a meal. So chopped is a good inspiration. I'm a little bit like that with cheaters too. Oh, I like cheaters.

The Cheaters channel. I love cheaters. Joey Grecoe, one of America's, you know, one of America's heroes that people don't talk about, saving people from cheating. What about you, Shannon? I've got a few. I already mentioned 80, Griffith. Law and Order, SBU.

Law and order. There's like nine million of those. The original Unsolved Mysteries with Robert Stack. I'll raise those. And then there's another show that I love. You're going to make fun of me for this one called I Almost Got Away With It. And it's about criminals who committed crimes. Oh, I thought you were saying you almost got away with watching this show.

There's a show called But I Almost Got Away With It. Yeah. And of course, you know how every episode is going to end because they don't get away with it. They're in jail. But they're fascinating stories about- Well, or wow. Look at this. So many different interests from this group.

I'll add the office. I never watched it when it was a thing, so I'm slowly over time watching them all. I'm probably about season five or six. One person writes, Matt, in the spirit of saying you're wrong and asking for forgiveness, question one,

would you ask for forgiveness for not liking Trump? And number two, is there any positive for you, about our future president. Well, no to number one. I'm not asking for forgiveness. I stand by that. Yes, there are some positives.

Like, this is a compliment for him, okay? Because he is wedded to no ideology. Like, because he'll say anything. Sometimes he actually takes positions that Republicans don't like that I think are good, right? So because he will get things passed by Republicans that they otherwise wouldn't do, sometimes he has the opportunity if he wants to to do stuff that would otherwise not get done. For instance, I think RFK is a quack.

But he is right about America's obesity problem. And Michelle Obama many years ago tried to address that. Maybe we actually do something about America's obesity problem because there's this moment where both parties kind of agree. So there are things like that that could, for me, be a positive. I have to wait and see, though, for it to actually happen. You did a good job there with that. I didn't say they would happen.

For instance, I think we talked about this. He did one thing that was a good job. We in this society are way too hard on people with criminal convictions when they get out of jail. We make it really hard for them to get jobs. We make it really hard for them to have their records expunged. We make it hard for them to vote. And so once they've paid their debt to society, for many of them, they don't have anything they can do and they go back to crime because it's hard for them to do something. Because in Trump's administration, they actually did a lot of that stuff.

There were some people like Van Jones that worked with him. And they did a lot of that stuff for former criminals who are trying to rehabilitate their life. We need to encourage those people to do it. And that was a positive from his first term. See, you came up with two positives for our future president. There's a little mega sparkle in those hours. That's it. Get him that red hat.

That's not a sparkle. That's still dim. But, you know, everybody has something good. When you act like nobody's got, everybody's got something nice. I heard two months from today, I think, is the inauguration. Can't wait. It's going to be a great day. They're with the sparkle.

Sparkle gone. Who's next, Jen? Jeff. Jeff. How are you, Jeff? Good, good, good. Yes? Yes, Jeff.

What happened to Jeff? So Jeff gave us an um, and then he was gone, Shannon. Is this like the new version of who was the guy that one time that called him? I get asked about that guy all the time. Jay. It's the new Jeff. We still don't know what happened a decade later. There are people once a month, Drew, I still get asked about Jay, and we still don't know.

I don't think it's been a full week since I've been in this bar answering a question about him or trying to answer a question about it. One of the great mysteries of KSR. What happened to Jay many, many years ago. Hopefully he's okay. We don't know. So who's next? Freebird. Freebird.

How are you? Hey, guys, long-time listener, multiple-time caller. I have a question and a statement. The question is, I think Kentucky is 20 and a half underdog. Is that going to be included in your parlay? And I figured as much as you guys. as much as you guys travel, that some of y'all be watching diners, drive-ins and dives to stop in some of these places on your road trip. Yeah, I do look up.

I appreciate the call on our road. When we go on our road trips, I look up to see if restaurants have been on TV shows in these towns. Because I think, you know, we know to stop somewhere. I try to always pick something unique in the places we go, Ryan. A local mom-and-pop place is our favorite place to go on the road. already had some people recommend stuff in Iowa City on our stops. But yeah, I can do that. I watch the triple D occasionally, but Guy Fieri is just a little much for me. But I do, I'm with you. I do a lot of research to know where I need to eat when I'm running through a place,

whether just passing through or on vacation. Atlas Obscura, by the way. Great website. Atlas Obscura is a great website. When you go to a place, it kind of shows you the weirdest thing that's in that place. I do always, always like that. Tell me about Stockton Mortgage. Stockton Mortgage, you know, this is the great time of year to start thinking about buying that house. It's always a good time to buy. Never a very better time than November, what is it, 18th? 20th.

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, Tript 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, 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, Kear Gaines, as we have real conversations about healing, growth, fatherhood, pressure, and purpose on my new podcast, learn the hard way. Open your free, our heart radio app,

On hurdle with Emily Abadi, we sit down with the most inspiring women in sports and wellness, professional athletes, coaches, and Olympic champions to talk about the challenges that shaped them and the mindset that keeps them going. From the WNBA standout, Kate Martin, and rising hockey star, Layla Edwards. If a boy can do it, I don't see why a girl can't.

Like, I've never understood that. Like, it didn't make sense in my brain. It's hard to be in spaces that no one looks like you, but don't ever feel like you don't feel on. Don't let that be the reason you don't do it. An Olympic champs Gabby Thomas and Katie Ladeki. The ability to show a gold medal to someone and have their face light up and smile, that means the world to me. And that's what motivates me to win more gold medals. At our level, at this scale, like being able to fail in front of the entire world.

Like, I can do anything. I can do anything. Because resilience isn't just about winning. It's about showing up, even when it's hard. Listen to Hurtle with Emily Abadi on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports. Jacob Kingston grew up in an isolated polygamous sect.

We were God's chosen kingdom on earth. He felt destined for greatness. So when a swaggering Armenian businessman catapults Jacob into an extraordinary world, he doesn't look back. and Lamborghinis, private jets, meeting the president of Turkey. I'm Michelle McPhee, and this is one of the most shocking criminal conspiracies I've ever come across. When Jacob met Levant this plant to a billion dollar fraud. But with two kings from entirely different worlds, just how long can their empire survive?

The largest tax investigation in American history. You need to tell me what you know. Is somebody coming after me? Jacob told Levan, you're ruining my life. Listen to Kingdom of Fraud on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential.

Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days I'd put on 10 pounds, I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome back to TeguSports Radio, 859,000-28027. One person writes, Matt, Kobe Brea. What's three-point percentage does he finish? You all joked about him being ahead of read. Does he finish ahead of read?

Yes. Yeah, I think he is. I'm going to say, because the way this team, you know, You know, Reed's percentage probably is even higher if he didn't have to play for a team where sometimes he had to force his shot because we couldn't get offense going. I think all of Kobe Bray's shots are going to be in the flow of an offense that has other weapons. I think he's going to shoot over 52%. I think he's going to break our record. If he get, there's a minimum amount you have to take, assuming he gets to that point, yes, I think he will.

And it's no fluke. I mean, he led the nation in three-point percentage last year. The dude is just a pure shooter. So, yeah, if I had to pick the way he started right now, I think he's, breaking the record that Reid just set last year. Yeah, it's crazy to pick someone to shoot over 50% from three, but he already did it at Dayton. He shot like 49.9 last year, and that was being more of a feature guy.

I've got to go higher. Yeah, I'll say 53, 54. I think Travis Ford said during the broadcast last night, he goes, he was a nightmare to try to scout and try to stop because he played against him last year. Yeah, I didn't realize until the guy called in the postgame show to think about that Travis would have coached against him last year. When Travis was at St. Louis and he was at Dayton.

Yeah, in the A-10. I think, yeah, I mean, it's hard to predict somebody to set a school record, but I think he's going to set a school record. I just think he's going to get, he doesn't force his shot. So, like Jackson Robinson and Lamont Butler sometimes may take bad shots because they feel like they have to. I don't think he'll do that a lot. Hasn't yet, has he?

And if he's open, it's going in. It's going in. So they're so good at moving the ball around to get the best shot. He doesn't have to force too many. If you were talking about records getting broken, Lamont Butler's. breaking the steals record so we'll break a couple records this year oh you think he breaks the steels record yeah i mean it's still very early but rondo should watch his back who has it rondo ronde oh dred almost broke it last year remember he only needed a couple more i think we would

have broke it not even starting it's right yeah so uh so i think yeah you're right lamont butler what if we what if we just shatter our records three point records maybe some scoring records. Yeah, that's true too. Wow, that's true. I mean, if they have a shot, I don't think they'll breed those early Patino teams because they were so ridiculous with the way they shot threes. But maybe. They're just better defensively than anybody ever thought this team. Could shatter the record most threes in the season. Yeah? Oh, yeah. Didn't think about that. 10 percentage maybe. Yeah. So there's, I mean, we, they've shot pretty well from three. We shot over. We shot 40% or better from three every game.

I won't get carried away, but we're going to win the SEC tournament. We're going to go to the Final Four. Just so much to look forward to. What was the record they set last night? That was the first team to score. They're the first UK team in history to get four straight, to start the season with four straight games with 10-30. That's what it was.

So who's up next? Cannon. Go ahead, Cannon. First time, long time. Who are? What's up? Something I love is, the old video of Happy Chandler singing my old Kentucky home.

That's a beautiful thing. And I always told myself, I want that Kentucky because I'm too young to experience that Kentucky. And I feel like we finally have that back and I couldn't be happier. It's an interesting question. I appreciate the call. When's the last time you think Kentucky basketball had the sort of, I mean, again, we've had a ton of success and we've been really cool in the last 15 years.

But when was the last time you think that Kentucky, my old Kentucky home, the state kind of senior day, that whole thing that I grew up with and that you grew up with Ryan, when do you think that kind of went away? Would you say maybe the tubby end of the tubby era? I think so. I think maybe Chuck Hayes is maybe the last guy to really almost cry during my old Kentucky home because, you know, trying to think of guys that... Maybe I kind of think of Jody Meeks, Ramele and Joe.

You know, Ramele and Joe finished with Billy, but Ramele and Joe really loved this place and had a, had like a, you know, spent four years here. Jody Meeks was like that. I think we're in the right ballpark, somewhere in that time frame. Do you think it gets back to that now? Or do you think just with the way the transfer portal and all of it is,

that's just hard to do nowadays? It may be able to come back if Travis and Trent stay here for four years. But like, do you think senior day this year? Because we're going to have like seven seniors this year. I mean, do you, do you know, we are? I mean, we're going to have six, right? Like, we're going to have six seniors this year. Do you think it will be emotional even though they've only been here a year?

I don't. I don't think anybody, any of those guys are going to tear up because they're just only been here a year. They don't get it. But like when Chuck Hayes or one of these guys are here for four years, Do you want to make a bet on that? You think somebody will cry? You want to make a bet on one of them sheds tears on senior day? I'll take that bet.

I'll take that bet. I'll take that. You go andrew car. I'll take it. I don't know what odds you want to give me, but I'll take that one of them tears up. I think this is, I think because of the uniqueness of this situation, all these dudes from 11 different places, 12, if you count the freshman, coming to different schools.

and all kind of being underappreciated. You could make an argument that every single person on this roster is not as appreciated as they probably appreciate themselves. That's probably fair. And the fact that they could all come together and have a moment together, if the team is good, Drew, I could see that being really special to everybody involved. That and these guys have played a lot of college basketball. They might be crying just because five years.

I mean, you have six guys that are in their fifth year that's coming to an end. With Cal, obviously not a lot of senior days because so many one and duns, they're going on to the draft. I think it obviously got dry there because senior day was like, in no offense these guys, but, you know, Todd Lanner, a lot of the walk on. Well, you had Derek Wilson, Dominique. Remember Derek asked his wife to marry him on Senior Day. That was kind of a nice thing. Your best players weren't getting those moments.

Patrick Patterson had one. They had one with Patrick Patterson that I thought was good. That was Cal's first year. They treated him as a senior, even though he was a junior. So we're going to have more seniors this year than we've had in like the last five years combined. So we'll have six scholarship seniors. How many scholarship seniors did Cal have that played the whole career? Alex Poitrethrus.

Poitris. Dominique and Derek. Hawkins and Willis. Who else? John Hood. The, he play all four years? Yeah, five. John Hood, there's four.

Anyone else? It can't be the case. We'll have more scholarship four-year players this year than Cal had four-year guys. His high career. I mean, you had guys transfer in. I mean, we didn't have like Sestina and Grady and those guys. So if you're going to count those, that's, that's a little different. Start here in here.

It is a very short one. Start here in here. Is it just Poitrous Hood, Hawkins, Willis? Scholarship. Scholarship. That started with Cal. I mean, you could give him like jorts if you wanted it early. But he didn't start here either.

He was a Juco kid. Yeah, that's right. Perry Stevenson, Ramone Harris. But yeah, they didn't start with Cal. They did have a senior day. Poitrus is. Cowell only. Did we only have four?

Poitrus, Willis Hawkins. That's amazing. It is amazing. That's, that's, we only had four. I can't think of another one right now. I don't think we had another one. Wow. We've got six this year.

We'll take a break. 859-9-280, 22-87. The college football playoff thing that's, about to happen right after this. 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, Kentucky Sports Radio. I want to, as I've said a lot over the last few couple years, the most important things in college sports that's being done right now are the questions about the future and specifically about NIL and what's happening. and I'm following that very intently because in January and early February after the cabinet stuff all gets done, NIL and college sports is going to be one of the first things Congress deals with, and they're basically going to be setting the future of college sports. And it's very interesting to see who are the people doing it because they're going to be deciding

what the sports we love look like for the next 25 years. And it looks like former Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville is going to be maybe the most important person, which is anybody who saw Tommy Tuberville coach, it's got to be unbelievable to them that he's going to be setting the future of college sports. But the reality is he is probably going to be one of four people that decide the future of college sports. Him and former New Jersey, well, current New Jersey Senator, former presidential candidate Corey Booker on the Democratic side, they're probably the two people they're going to be right now. these bills. So anytime Tuberville talks on it, I'm going to pay attention, right? Because he's going to, they're in the majority. So he's going to be the most important person. He made an interesting comment yesterday. And it's funny because this, like, brings sports and politics together and people don't know how to handle it. He's really upset that Indiana is, like,

going to make the playoff. And he's also upset about how Indiana built their team, because he's an SEC got, right? He's like me. He and I both agree Indiana's fraudulent, okay? I mean, Indiana hasn't played any of the teams in the top seven in the big ten, none of them. Nobody with a winning record. So he thinks, like me, they're fraudulent. We'll find out when they play Ohio State Saturday. But he was talking about Indiana and he said, we've got to do something about the way these people are building teams. Look at Indiana. They went out and bought their team. So clearly, he doesn't like that. Now, Indiana fans are outraged. But it's interesting when you're thinking about what the mindset of college sports is going to be like next, the guy who's going to be one of

the ones right in the bill, maybe the main guy writing the bill, doesn't like the idea that Indiana went and bought the team. Now, my answer to him is, what the blank do you think Auburn's done the last time? I mean, do you honestly think these teams have not been paying their teams? Like, come on, Tommy. Like, I, like, I'm. I'm sure there were recruiting violations when you were the coach. But that mindset is interesting to me because they may be setting out a path where it's not as free and open, Drew, as we thought. If the guy right in the bill, his main takeaway is Indiana bought a team.

It's kind of ironic he's the guy. I mean, his past, I guess at Ole Miss, he said, I'm never leaving here. He left to take me out in a pine box and he left the next week. and he also was at dinner with a recruit one time and just got up and left him at the table. To take another job. So this guy's kind of got some history of some. But he also said that. He said, I think these players should have to sign contracts that they enforce.

Well, I'm not saying I necessarily disagree with him, but, dude, you got out of your contracts. Like, you had contracts that you left. But I do wonder if his frustration. about Indiana making the playoff. What if that helps set the future course of NIL and college sports based on the fact that he's mad that the Hoosiers are in the playoff? That would be one of the weirdest, like, things ever, right? It sounds like that's the road he's going down just for what you just told us right here,

but he's got to be, you know, he's not stupid. He knows this is going on all over the SEC, and you're trying to sing. But that's not what he said. You're right. He's not, well, he knows that. Yeah. But what he chooses to say is interesting to me. He talks about Indiana.

Like, Indiana, I'm sure they spent less money than probably every SEC team did, don't you think? Well, this particular Indiana team is just, you know, he picked up James Madison and Robin to Bloomington. They're all James Madison transfers. And then they have like Ohio's quarterback. So it's kind of, I get his point, but Indiana didn't even really just go out and buy one. They just followed their kids. It's kind of a unique situation in Indiana this year. They followed their coach from an undefeated team.

So anyway, worth watching because the next couple months, Tubberville's going to be the guy. So anytime he talks on NIL or whatever, a lot of people online like to dunk on him, I kind of like to just hear what he's going to say because it may be what this ends up being going forward is because, you know, a lot of these people in Congress, they don't know anything about it.

And so they're probably like, well, you were a football coach, you go ahead, and he's going to probably be the one that ends up deciding a lot of it. Is Morgan McGarvey still involved in it? He's on the house side. But again, because the, Republican, if the Democrats have won the House, I think Morgan McGarvey would be sitting there with Tommy Tuberville and the two

of them decided. Now, there'll probably be a Republican that's the main guy to do it. Who's next? Ben. Ben, go ahead, Ben. Hey, guys, I just had a question for Ryan. Uh-oh. Dude, Ryan, how's psyched you're going to be when Pope bust out the

icicle uniforms against Ohio State? Dude, it's coming. I think there's going to be a game. They're going to wear the icicle uniforms one game. They'll wear the denim uniforms one game and we're all going to go crazy and love every single second of it i'm all on board i'm all for it can we just nod with the denim uniforms please let's do the icicles it's coming they're both coming all right i can't i can't wait appreciate to call baby let's go i like i'd like some i sick i think it's coming i think it would be cool and i want them to come out in those old warmups those

oversized icicle warmups too when they come out that game old apexes yeah i think well we'll see the denim they're already doing all the call but they come out to the bull's theme like they used to in 96. They're doing all the nostalgia, so I expect uniforms in time. Who's up next? Let's go to Nick. Nick, go ahead, Nick. Hey, guys, two things.

For quick, Matt, I know we y'all strip coming up, a band. I don't know if you've heard them or not, but you need to listen to Hog, Slop, String, Band. No, I don't have any affiliation to them. Wait, man, hang on a second. The name of the group is Hog Slop String Band. You got it. And shockingly, they play heavy metal. No, I'm just getting there, a bluegrass band.

All right. Shannon will play a hog slop string band song here in a minute. And we'll see if that's as good. I will say, I like the name. Feels like the name has something that I would enjoy. They got to be from Bell County, right, with a name like that? No, they're not from. We don't have hogs in Bell County.

We're coal country. You always act like we're farm country. We're coal country. We're not hog slop bandanas. Go ahead, sir. No problem. If you're okay with it, Ryan, would you be okay if I read a couple more of those folks that I've got wrote down here? Oh, yes.

Okay, this is great. More Ryan Lemon quotes. This is the guy that writes them down. I like this. All right, go ahead. My favorite thing is trying to figure out why he said what he said. But one was, what is your good grades get you? What is your good grace get you?

What did that mean? Grades or grace? Grace. Grays? Like a class. Oh, grades. You said, what is your good grades get you? What is your good grades get you?

What is it? I don't think we ever heard. The world may never know. Yeah, the world may never know. What was the other one? He was very emotional. He very cried. He was very emotional.

He very cried. He very cried. You did. I can totally see you saying he very cried. That's a great ride one. Any more? I've got plenty, but I'll leave you with one more. I have no idea why he said this, or Ryan, why you said this,

but he ain't no coffee shop president. He ain't no coffee shop president. What does that mean? I have no idea. I can't he what that even comes close to me? And how do we not call you out on that quote? Yeah. Well, the thing is, the problem is, he says so much that you do have to pick and choose

or you just start to look like a bully. I should have noticed he ain't no coffee shop. president. There was one about a month ago, Kentucky Brandon, I hope it ends up on this guy's list. But when Ryan said possession is five-tenths of the law, I just thought about that randomly throughout the day. Every since. Drew, I've got that on my list. Yes. Thank you. That's my whiskey thief call today.

I appreciate it. Possession is five-tenths of the law is good. Didn't even, first of all, not true. And also, didn't want to, like, simplify the, the number. Five-tenths sounds better than a half. Doesn't? Yeah. Okay. Tomorrow marks week 17 of the Commonwealth causes Queen of Hearts 50-50 raffle.

50% of the pot goes the winner, 50 to Commonwealth Causes. Before 6 p.m. every Tuesday, buy a $2 raffle ticket, and then 8 o'clock watch the Queen of Hearts drawing. I don't think people realize this happens all the time. Every Thursday. Every Thursday. They just give away half of up to $5,000. I don't know why I don't do it more often. Probably because you don't care about charities or N I'll.

Go to Commonwealth Causes. You can get the app where you can download it today and play the Queen of Hearts Raffle with Commonwealth Causes, portion of which obviously goes to NIO as well. Good people. You should care about charity. I should care about charity. And copy shop president. We'll take a break.

On Hurtle with Emily Abadi, we sit down with the most inspiring women in sports and wellness.

professional athletes, coaches, and Olympic champions to talk about the challenges that shaped them and the mindset that keeps them going. From the WNBA standout Kate Martin and rising hockey star Layla Edwards. If a boy can do it, I don't see why a girl can't. Like, I've never understood that. Like, it didn't make sense in my brain. It's hard to be in spaces that no one looks like you, but don't ever feel like you don't feel like.

Don't let that be the reason you don't do it. An Olympic champs Gabby Thomas and Katie Ledecki. The ability to show a gold medal to someone and have their face like. up and smile. That means the world to me. And that's what motivates me to win more gold medals. At our level, at this scale, like being able to fail in front of the entire world. Like, I can do anything. I can, like, I can do anything. Because resilience isn't just about winning. It's about showing up, even when it's hard.

Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports. Jacob Kingston grew up in an isolated polygamous sect. We were God's chosen kingdom on earth. He felt destined for greatness. So when a swaggering Armenian businessman catapults Jacob into an extraordinary world, he doesn't look back. Ferraris and Lamborghinis, private jets, meeting the president of Turkey. I'm Michelle McPhee, and this is one of the most shocking criminal conspiracies I've ever come across. When Jacob met Levin this went to a billion dollar fraud.

But with two kings from entirely different worlds, just how long can their empire survive? The largest tax investigation in American history. You need to tell me what you know. Is somebody coming after me? Jacob told Levan, you're ruining my life. Listen to Kingdom of Fraud on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games.

Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome back. It is the final segment of Kentucky Sports Radio here at KS. Bar and Grill. Turn it up a little bit. This is Hogslop. Yeah, I do like this. I can see myself liking this. This sounds like music that you make us listen to on our road trips. Yeah, I'm in, Shannon. Hogsloop on the band. On the trip. Well, I guess we got, what, 36 hours of this. 36 hours of this. And then I take your iPad away and you have to listen to all of it. All right. So Friday, we're at a state, at a state. renovations out in Greyline for our remote.

So hope to see everybody out there on Friday. Yeah, it'll be kind of cool. We've really not done. Yeah, I've done a show at the Grey Line station. I was trying to think, if we done anything, even on that side of town, like, have we done that sort of North Broadway? Have we, have we, have we, Loudon, have we done stuff out there? We did a show at Legends Ballpark one time.

Okay. And then you're, that old brewery, Shannon, used to. Oh, yeah, Rock House. That used to be out there as well. So that's probably the ones that we've done. And then trivia tonight. Come on out. Ryan found a team yet? I'll work on it during the lunch break.

All right. Just do me a favor. Nothing you can't do. Don't reserve a table and not come. Yes. But you've done that a couple times too. Well, that wasn't totally my fault. You believe that?

Do you want to throw anyone under the bus? No, I don't. Then you just got to take it. It's either your fault or you've got to throw them under the bus. All right. So remind me, Hopkins County, right? Where you guys from? Henderson. What?

Lyon County and then Sarasota over here. Region 2 and Sarasota. We probably get more counties who visit the bar than I bet there are very few places in Kentucky that have more different places, people from different places that come to it than this. We had a little stretch where we're getting a lot of people from Owen County. but the last couple days it seemed like it's been Webster County. Webster County's like, don't forget us. Yeah, they were like here yet last night.

Yeah, so should be fun this evening as well. Who's up next, Shannon? Let's go to Ed. Ed, hang on just one second, Ed, before I go, one thing I want to make sure I say. Dabo, real quick. Dabo says, and I feel like he says this about every two months, he says the worst thing that's ever happened to him as a coach right now is trying to reduce his roster to 105.

players. Really? Now notice I didn't say 85, 95, 105 players. He said this is the hardest thing, it's the worst thing that's ever happened to him. Now I will note, football, 11 people are on the field at a time. If you're talking about offense and defense, that's 22 people. Let's throw in the specialist. That'll get us to 25 people. Four times 25 is 100. So you're you're you could have four times your roster and then five more dudes. And that's that's not enough, according to Davo. Now, I understand it's going to be sad that he may have to tell some of these walk-ons of his rich donors' kids that they can't play this next year.

But, you know, cry me a river. It's a lot of pieces. Maybe, you know, Jesus welcome everyone at his table. Maybe Dad Bo is just doing the same thing. Well, there was a tweet, though. There was a great tweet. Somebody had Jesus did five with 12 disciples. I think you could handle 105.

That's good. I thought that was a great Davo quote, somebody said. It's very predictable of dabbo, though. Yeah, I mean. 105 is a lot. Oh, it's the worst thing in the world. 105 people. I mean, that would be the equivalent, like, in basketball,

if you had a roster of, like, 23 kids. Yeah. And you said, well, that's not enough. You need a few more seats. I need a few more seats. than the 23 I have. I mean, come on. Makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

I can see, you know, you don't want to hurt some kids' feelings. That stinks. That stinks. That part sticks, but, yeah, this is a business. But you know what? That's life. A lot of the people like Davo are the same people who then rant about culture today. These kids, nobody stands up to them.

And then they go, I only have 105 players. There's no multimillionaire that is more whiny. than my man dabbo. But it gets your dabbo impersonation going. We always love that. You see, he went from dabbo to grouchy old man, back to back. It's kind of the same. They're blending together.

I just, dabbo drives me crazy because he has refused to adjust to the world. Yes, he has. That's right. And when the world says, hey, man, it's time to put your VHS tape away and start streaming, he just can't take it. And he's like, that drives me crazy.

He's sticking his blockbuster card out. He's like, I bought this blockbuster membership. Well, that's on you, Davo. Who's next? It's still Ed. Ed, go ahead, Ed. Speaking of Andy Griffith, every night at 8 o'clock on Me TV. Me TV.

You watch you for two hours. What is Me TV? Where do I get that? That's Channel 77 on direct TV. Oh, okay. There you got that. I have DirecTV, although I still keep trying to cancel it. They're like, I thought we had a rule that I could click a button and cancel.

I tried to click and it said, I did. I went when the FTC passed that rule, I went to the website and they did have a button that said click to cancel. So I clicked it and it said, thank you for clicking to cancel. You have to call this number to do it. Turn that satellite back in. Well, that doesn't help. I just have to click and then call. But 77.

I appreciate it. I would watch that. Yeah, you would like me TV. Isn't that the channel Shannon that shows all the old TV shows and stuff? Yeah. Yeah. What else does it show? Yeah.

Yeah, it shows gun smoke. It shows the rifle. Riflemen. Yeah, those aren't my things. I like the, I appreciate the call the old Nick at Night shows. Oh, okay. So Green Acres. Yeah, Full House.

Kentucky gas man Kentucky gas man got about a minute all right I got two quick comments one about Pope and what about lean camp so the way I feel about Mark Pope we just got a minute so give me Lynn Camp if you don't mind all right so for two years Last year and a year before, I was a assistant coach for Jackson County football high school.

And so when we went there, the final score was 42 to 2. 42 to 2. You don't shut out Lynn Camp. They can't shut out Lynn Camp. They scored two points. So I'm pretty sure it was at the end of the game whenever the second and third string was put in. So that is true. That is true.

at the court call they got a safety at the end because you can't shut out lynn't shut out lincoln court dot com if you need physical therapy go to court they'll help get you back to where you're not even hurting they get you out of pain and if you go to the end of the year you got a month left and if you've already paid your deductible you can basically go for no charge all the insurance they'll take almost all of them 70 locations around the state there is no reason to be in pain called court dot com that's k-or-t-com right thank you very much Tomorrow we are at a mystery place.
