Welcome everyone to Kentucky Sports Radio. It's August of 20th. I'm Matt Jones here on a... Cloudy Day in Lexington, Kentucky. Ryan is moving his child to college and probably off crying somewhere. So you have Franklin and Shannon the Duke. The phone line is 859-280-2287. This is an Ask Anything Wednesday.

One of the last we probably do. We'll do one next week and then that's really it because the season starts. So I ask anything Wednesday, 8-2-80-2287. Any question you want. A Vision Auto Glass text machine is 772-7525-25-45-4. this edition sponsored by the T's podcast. If you call TJ, he'll make them pay. Drew, tonight is the finals of the KSbar trivia contest from last year.

So we have all, and a lot of the people coming there, they'll be the first people to get to experience the new KSbar food. I saw Ryan in there working yesterday. We have a lot of employees coming in and out. I'm going to put a shout out here for, and I don't do this a lot, but we need to do it. we need cooks. I found out we pay,

we were very competitive. They told me I could say the salary, $18 an hour, which I think is pretty good. Apparently puts you at the top end of that market in Lexington, but we do need them pretty soon. So if you're looking for a gig, come join us,

and you can come Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, but we are open to, not open. We have trivia tonight. Should be exciting. I was in there yesterday. I helped putting the finishing touches on the place. I'm going to pop in for trivia tonight. Ryan is in the tournament championship, trivia championship, right? He's not going to win. Yeah, he told me. But he's in the tournament championship.

Well, he told me half of his team can't attend. So I might even sit in with Ryan for a little bit, see if I can't help. I can't help at all. Unless you were on the team that's. Oh, never mind. Sorry, Ryan. You can come and you guys, I'd like you to come, but you get like, look, Ryan's already trying to cheat, Shannon. Like, like the rule is you have to come with the team you qualified with. You can't just add like professional trivia people. I'm popping in regardless. Yeah, you can't do that.

See, Ryan always, he always thinks he can get around the rules, Shannon. Like he doesn't make a reservation, then he shows up and wants to take people's tables. Well, he thinks, you know, he's part owner. He can just do what he wants. It doesn't work that way. It doesn't work like today. Yeah, it's right. Does Jerry Jones get to be quarterback just and get to.

I would like to see that, though. Funny. So, but yeah, so tonight's there. and then the listener dinner is tomorrow night. So it's all, you know, we're going to be out there the next couple nights. Exciting times. I'm still full from Friday when we were eating the new menu. I overate at the, at the hubby party.

It's easy when it's sitting out like that. That's right. Do you think Ryan is crying right now, Shannon? He's crying? I said, do you think he's crying? Sorry, I was taking a call. Probably so. Yeah, he's probably tearing up a little bit.

Probably a tear rolling in his face. I will tell you, stay far away from campus. Yesterday, top seven worst traffic in Lexington. And it extends not just to campus. It goes everywhere. Like, I mean, now, when people move in, it's not just, there's a combination of there's a lot of people here. There's a lot of people who don't know where they're going. And then people, as Johnny Bruce would say, just like to set her down.

Like, they think they can just put their car anywhere. And it is, and it affects every road. Like everywhere, yesterday and today are the two days, they're just awful. Yesterday, I mentioned going to the bar. I thought I could just run over there after the show. I thought Broadway, it's just far enough off from campus. I should be okay. It was most of my day just going over there for an hour than trying to get back home.

It's awful. It's awful. You get a sense of how poorly Lexington is designed, especially on those days. Because it's just, if you had to go on campus, you might as well just go ahead and give your first born and move. Because it's not going to happen. And they're, you know, but school's starting. So that's exciting.

I, Drew, I knew you would appreciate that. I need to give my, I hate to do this. This is one of those. I don't want to do this, but I feel like I want to go on record. All right. Can I do that? I'm excited for what's next. Let me sit up a little bit.

So you know the new park. Yeah, Gatton Park. Gatton Park. All right. So Gatton Park is right close to where I live. And Shannon, they've been doing construction on it for like a year. Yeah. And it opens. It also opens Saturday. So it opens Saturday. And I, you know, I've sit there and looked at it for a year coming up. The beach boys are going to be playing essentially in my backyard, right? That's cool. What a treat. It is going to be a treat. The music part is going to be a treat. But, you know, as anything like that, it's a big part of the city. This is a lot of money in this thing.

And yesterday, I looked, they moved the barriers. And for my purposes, I thought that meant it was open. Well, no, I'm serious. There were fences that wouldn't lie. And then they took them down. Wouldn't you think that means it's open? Come on in. Yeah, walk right on in.

I would think it's open. So last night, just before dusk, I decided to walk over there. I wanted to get my first look at it. All right? A couple other people seem to think the same thing. So I'm walking through the park. So let me give you the positives, first of all. Extremely nice.

The water things they're going to do where they shoot water up in the air like they do down at Fountain Square, people are going to love that. Okay. Like it was just exciting. You're going to see there's going to be water shooting in the air and then it's over your head and then it's dancing around. Like I think that's going to be awesome. The creek, which I didn't even know was there, is there. It's pretty. Drew, it's peaceful.

Do we have a nice current? No. There's a little dry right now. It's more like, it's dry season, I understand. It's like prostate problems creek. Okay. Is that the name? Trickle. Is there a plaque? It's welcome to prostate problems creek. Donated by it's not the official name. But there's a little of that. So yeah, Shannon, a little trickle. of a crew. But that's okay. Walking path, pretty nice. They have some really good swings. As John Anderson would say, you can go just to swing.

Right? I mean, there's some good swings that I think people will enjoy. Oh, this is building towards a butt. No, no, wait a minute. I just feel it. There's the amphitheater where the music's going to be is going to be very cool. I think you have to bring

your own chairs. I think people need to recognize that because there's not like a lot of places is it. But that amphitheater, like, Lexington's going to be very fortunate to have that. If they use that correctly, they can get some really cool acts. You know, Shannon, those acts that can only play like 4,000 or 5,000

people. So bigger than like Manchester Music Hall, but not Rupp Arena. That's a cool place to have. That's a very cool, four to 5,000 people. So, all positive. Are you hearing my positive? Yes. I feel like this is, you work for marketing over there. Not the negative to say.

Let's move on. Yeah. I have one issue. I'm not trying to be Matt sticking the mud. I am all for people having fun and I'm all for joy. I love you, but. Here comes. But. There's the butt.

As a former lawyer, I'm a little concerned about the playground. All right. I think we've probably come too far in recent years too, we have to protect our kids from everything, right? Like, oh no, you know, let's have warning labels on everything. Let's have bumpers on everything, et cetera. But if you go look at that playground, unless they change something between now and Saturday, which I guess could happen.

It looks to me like the most dangerous thing I've ever seen in my life. How so? There are, they have like things for kids to climb where it feels like to me, kids are breaking limbs, okay? Steep inclines and declines with no rails. There's like one of those things you use to like, you're climbing a mountain. But it's just like it's not very, like it's clearly for kids. But they're not going to be putting harnesses on these kids.

Oh, yeah. So it's like a mountain climbing wall with no harness. Yes, but it's not a wall. It's like just a little incline. Right. I can't really get you to visualize it. But I just want everybody to know when they go Saturday. Just look at that playground for a second and think of it from the what could happen.

The slide. Shannon, it's kind of really a little. Yeah. I feel like Are you afraid to get on it? Well, yes. But I feel like and it's, and it's, I feel like it's going to get hot in that thing. It's enclosed.

You know what? You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. But they have a couple like inclines and declines where I'm like, kids are going to go tumbling down this thing. So I'm sure there are people smarter than me.

But it looks to me like heaven for a lawsuit in that thing. So I just want to go on record as saying maybe I'm missing something. I encourage people that go. Tell me I'm wrong. Because I want to feel good. But I

am worried that sitting in my backyard I'm going to hear sounds of screaming children. And ambulances. And ambulances with broken limbs everywhere when I look at this playground. Again, maybe

I'm wrong. They have a sign at the front that says, hey, you could fall. I don't know if that holds up in court. When you say this, I'm envisioning. Have you seen the old playgrounds from like the 1940s? It's exactly right. We're just hanging off of lead pipes that were 50 feet in the air. I think that's what this is. Like monkey bars, except they are over a hot colds.

But I'm sort of envisioning as you're describing all of this right now. When you go, I want you to look at it because I think it's a beautiful park. I still am concerned about the homeless situation there. I mean, I don't know how they're going to police. I mean, I walked around it probably for 20 minutes and then finally somebody came outside and they were like, you can't be here. It's not open, which it would have been nice for them to have us. I mean, it was just, there was no sense that it wasn't open. It was just open.

Where did that person? Was it like a troll under a bridge? No, it was a guy in a yellow shirt. And when there's a guy in a neon green shirt, you assume, Shannon, that's official. That somebody with authority. He has a neon green shirt. So he must be. Scottie Shuffler about that.

He must be official. But I do worry about that. I think that's going to be, I mean, there's, they're going to have to, I don't know how they're going to monitor that the way I think they're probably going to need to do. But I do think it's beautiful.

I do think it's nice. I think it'll be cool. I do worry about children tumbling and multiple broken limbs. Unless maybe somebody can explain to me what, how it's not like that. But I want you to go look at it and see if you don't think. Well, one thing we've learned.

is, you know, on this show this week, there's a lot of great parents out there that keep track of their kids. So I'm sure the parents will be right there with the kids. This is definitely not a, just let your kids go place. I mean, I almost fell. Just looking at it. I mean, you also walked into the reflecting pool at the National Mall. So I don't know if you're the best example. It just jumped right out in front of me, the reflecting pool, and I ended up in the water.

I like this new playground. We got toughing these kids up. This is definitely a tough playground. You remember the OSNL skit where Dan Aykroyd was doing Christmas gifts and he was like shards of glass? It feels like this is shards of glass. I remember our monkey bars, they built over like a pile of rock. Like if you fell, you were out for six months. I think we found a syringe one time and played tag with it. These are life lessons you got to go through in third grade.

I'm just interested in the designer because I think the designer, also was the person who designed like the movie saw. I just think, just for my perspective, I think that might be a little bit of a dangerous playground. 859-280-2287. The text machine is 772-7754. I want to ask,

I'm going to ask a question for the fan base, and I'm a little tired. I was up late with Ellie, and then we got ESPN today, but we're going to do Ask Anything Wednesday. This is Kentucky Sports Radio. 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. That's where Sports Slice comes in. I'm Timbo. Every episode, we're cutting through the noise.

And on my podcast, The Cliverts Show, I'm bringing you conversations about all kinds of stuff. 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? Quarterback on office blue 42. Hey, ref, my mama wants you to wave at her. What? Where's she at? Hey, Miss Parker.

Listen to the Cliverts show on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Hey, it's Edwin Castro, also known as Castro 1021.

We also love sports. And with the World Cup right around the corner, we'll be breaking down the biggest

storylines ahead of the big tournament here in the USA. Listen to the 1021 podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast. or wherever you get your podcasts. 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 why he got the bar. 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.

This is going to be what the children are saying. 899-280-22. 287. Text machine 7.7.27-254, just to show I'm not the only person. One person writes, Matt, I went to Gatt in Park yesterday morning, was walking around, and the first thing I said to my wife was the playwright looks like a death trap. See? One person writes, Matt, it's been all the talk on the Lexington Mom's Facebook page. Oh, there's a Lexington Mom's Facebook page. First of all, I did not know there was a Lexington Mom's Facebook page. I'm wasting my time on Reddit. How am I not on the Lexington Mom?

Facebook page. Are you worried that these kids are just going to be knocking on your door for first aid kits? Just run up to your house with bloody noses looking for help. Apparently there are multiple Lexington mom's Facebook pages. Are they rivals? Oh, I hope so. Oh, they talk trash about each other. Would they let me on it? Or do you have to like prove you're a mom? Yeah, I don't think you're a Lexington mom. You're a Lexingtonian, but not a mom. I don't think they qualifies you. You know, hey girl. We need a fake profile. Mario, make us a fake profile.

Mario the mom. And he can put his profile up there and be ready to go. Whatever gets in there to read that gossip. Yes. I think the city responded on the Facebook mom page with all the safety precautions, but they don't seem to believe that solves the problem. I also, someone sent me on the Gatton website. It says that it's certified playground safety inspection.

passed multiple times. Okay. I mean, I listen, I don't believe you in the text or so. I don't claim to be an expert. I'm just telling you what I saw. Somebody sent me a picture of what playgrounds looked like in the 60s.

Yeah, insane. It is insane. Saper than the one I see down there right now. Is that quicksand in the photo? Good night. Look how high in the air they were. My goodness, it looks like those old pictures of the guy eating lunch on the skyscraper. That's what that was

As kids, they were on the 60-foot-tall monkey bars. It was practiced. 859-280-2287. Before we get the phones, John Wall, the announcement that he retired yesterday was kind of a way. People were all sort of reminiscing about John Wall online. You know, it was great to, there are things I've forgotten. Like, we always bring up the Carolina thing. We bring up the Yukon thing.

But, you know, there's a couple of plays and moments I forgot. You forget that he made that shot to work. win against Miami of Ohio in his first game and they asked the Miami of Ohio coach. They're like, what happened? How did you all breathe? How did you all blow it? And he's like, he says something like, I've been told John Wall is the greatest. And then he just, and he's like, does this whole thing. It's such a good speech. And then he goes, that's how we lost the game. They're the big blue. They're the big blue. Eight national champion. That guy is great. I don't know whatever happened. RIP. He passed away.

He passed away. RIP, Charlie Coles. That's one of the great postgame press conferences. Then I forgot about the dunk he got at Georgia over C.J. Leslie, the lefty dunk. Where they don't even call a foul. He gets nailed. Do you remember that

one? I do. Really, the Wall's first statement was the buzzer beater, but there was a run where they played North Carolina, Yukon, and then went to Indiana all in a week. Three marquee opponents. And he was awesome in all three of those games. The Yukon and Madison Square Garden

stands out to me because that was kind of the first time we were seeing those guys throwing lobs to each other on fast breaks and really letting loose. Yeah. And it gave one of the patented Dick Vitale. Oh, like you got one of those from him too which is always pretty exciting.

He had 14 or 16 assists, broke the record pretty early in his career. That was another we knew right away. It was nice to see him get his props and I can tell you, He saw it because he was liking my tweets and about it. And some of you all that responded to mine, I think he was liking yours too. I saw the thing pop up. I could tell, you know, I mean, it's not a secret.

He's talked about it, but he's dealt with mental health issues where like he struggled with confidence, et cetera. And I think it's great that he got to, he's getting to have his sort of getting your flowers moment. And I can't wait until the day they retire his yours. That's going to be an awesome day. I don't care what I'm doing then where I'm going to be in that arena when that happens. That will be an awesome, awesome thing. Definitely. And I liked yesterday, a lot of people on social media, former players reaching out, like Julius Randall said, I went to Kentucky. He's the reason I went to UK. Carl put something out. I mean, the list goes on and on. It was just fun seeing all those guys come together and celebrate Wall yesterday. Yeah, it is. He deserved that. And he, you know, we talk about it all the time. But when it comes to college at players, he's up there not just at Kentucky, but like with Zion and some of those guys just as most exciting period. And he's going to be on Amazon, apparently. He's going to be doing the NBA games on Amazon, which is kind of cool. Good. He's got a good personality. I'd like when he does podcast appearances. So I hope we get more of it. Alan, go ahead, Alan.

Hey, guys. How you doing? Good. My question for this, ask Wednesday, anything Wednesday, do you think this whole Epstein, travesty and debacle is going to end up being the biggest, you know, net of conspiracy or criminal traps? I didn't know that's what you were going to, what you're going to go with. This is my kind of show. I appreciate the call. Yeah, I mean, yeah, nothing can happen now. Shannon, you've been at the heart of this for a long time, not involved. But I think no matter what happens from now on, nobody's going to believe it. No. You know what I mean? I think it's reached that zone where it doesn't really matter what gets released, what does it,

nobody's going to believe it. And it's just going to always be, I think, Shannon, one of those things that people are just always a conspiracy about. If it doesn't get released, people are going to speculate on who's on the list. If it does get released, people are going to say it was altered. So it's not real anyway. So you're right. At this point, it doesn't really matter. Yeah. Well, I think it matters, but I also think like, this is what, when you hear me talk about how I don't like conspiracy theories, it's because in part you get to a point where the truth is irrelevant to people. It's just they're going to still believe what they're going to believe with all that said. I did watch like a 30 minute special on the jail. And you know, Shannon, I've always poo-pooed you about the suicide. Right? Yeah. Yeah. Always. But then I saw the jail.

thing and they had five cameras and only one of them seemed to be working. Not the one that was on him. And then it goes away for like two and a half minutes. They said it does that every night. Yeah, it just happens to go out. They never thought to fix it. And they never fixed it. It resets at midnight.

Like one guy goes up there, but then you don't see him leave and like, I don't know who serves dinner at 1159 p.m. So I do, Shannon. I mean, I'm not a conspiracy theory guy, but I didn't watch the thing about the video and you are kind of like, hmm. There's too many things that are coincidences to not believe that something was going on there that that is not exactly being told. The truth is not being told about it. But like, Shannon, you agree with me.

Nobody's going to believe whatever comes out. Oh, on the list? No, nobody's going to believe it. No matter what happens. That's just kind of what, that's just the way this is. I just don't think anybody ever will. Mustard. Go ahead, mustard.

Yeah. I missed it the last time you explained this. But your song, where was of London? How did you come up with that? And that is how I found you. What do you mean? That's how I found you. Well, I'm a radio guy, and I'm just tuning around,

and there's my song that was on the radio when I was a kid. Yeah. And the quick version is we came in. It was like three weeks into the show. and, hey, you need to pick a theme song. And I was like, he's like, we need it today. And I had listened to this song on the way in and I said, We'rewolves of London.

And it has stuck with us for 15 years since then. And I love it. And so I like it. I think it works that well. So it wasn't any deep thought. It just kind of like a lot of things happened. We'll be right back. One person writes, Matt, the park's going to be impossible to attend from the jump because of your ilk.

My ilk. Oh, ilk is an interesting word. But I know what he means. No, I do it. I'm just telling you, if you all wait me up in the middle of the night with your kids screaming as they've fallen off the thing. Somebody put a picture of it up. You're looking at it, Shannon. Do you see my concern?

I see a few concerns. Yeah. I mean, that, like, wall climbing thing that you're talking about. If you fall off the side of that, you're toast. Like, there's nothing to catch you. There's no net. There's no padding. Nothing.

That. And then there's like a big wheel, like a big wheel. Like a big. You look, because that wheel, I think there's going to be water on that wheel. Well, there's people on top of it. It looks like in the picture. But there are people on top of the wheel on the picture? So are they going to like rotate under like the price is right?

That slide is really steep too. The slide is very steep. Although a slide looks fun. It looks like like a obstacle course on like guts on Nickelodeon back in the day. It does. They got the agrocrug out there. It does look a little bit like that. Yeah.

Survival of the fittest. Good luck. It's Matt. In addition to that. The other big debate is on the Lexington restaurant pages. And it's about whether or not these private social clubs in Lexington will work. I feel like you'll have an opinion on this. For people we don't know in the rest of the state, in like the last year, like three private restaurant clubs have opened.

Where you can go pay money and like, well, I've not been. So I don't know. Like eat, which is the same as a restaurant. But you got to pay money to get in to eat? You have to be a member. So it's like a country club, but without the golf course, but it's in downtown Lexington. Like Penn Dennis Club, it sounds like to me. It's like, yes, they do that in Louisville.

And that's for like old Louisville money. I don't know what the Lexington, but there are like three and they've, they've all opened in the last year. It's hard for me to think, Drew, that those end up working. Do you think they do? Well, I need one of them to work because I joined, but it's not. Oh, you joined. Right across the street here. You joined Mr. Fancy Pace.

Which one did you join? Right across the street is the vine. It's opening up. The vine. It has a pool, though. I needed a pool. That's why I'm joining. But aren't there others?

There's like, there are others that don't have pools. There's like camel clutch. Yeah. Camel clutch. They're open. So there's letters there to greet you. Yeah, there's another one.

Yeah. I'm not up to speed on all of them. I just heard pool and across the street from where we are right now. So you're in one. Yeah. Did you have to go through like a initiation process and, applications? Well, they're not open yet, but I expect it to be hazed when I get there.

They'll probably take me to a wall or something. And did it was, you don't have to say much, but is it a lot of money? Actually, yeah, it was, I anticipated when I signed up, it'd be in pretty high and it was much lower than I expected. Now, I mean, when you're in there, you're going to have to eat and drink and. I haven't been to any of them, Shannon, so I don't really know. But a bunch of them opened quickly, and it's just impossible to me, for me to think, for me to think Lexington can have like, full, now you say there's four. of them because I didn't know about the vine. I don't think they're all going to work.

Maybe one will survive of all of them because you're right. I don't know if there's a market for as many that just popped up within a year. Sounds boozy to me. So you're telling me I got to pay to get into the door and then I got to pay for my food. So I'm paying essentially twice just to be able to have the privilege. To keep people out. But I thought the whole point was to get people in. I can tell you at our restaurant, I want people in, not out.

Exactly. I needed a pool and I can't afford a country club. so it was a nice, something in between. So this is cheaper than a country club? Oh, much cheaper. Can I give you a swim? Can I keep sneaking into this Marriott right here when they know I work in the building. Oh, okay.

Can I give me? I have a Ryan Lemon update. We were talking about him in the first segment. We're talking about him maybe crying. So I texted him. Are you crying yet? And his response was, I am too mad to cry. Traffic and parking has made us late for check in.

I've only had to yell at one UK police officer so far. Probably will be more. Probably will be more. Why is he yelling at the UK police officers? What did they do? I don't know. I guess it's their fault. There's traffic.

Do we think Ryan accommodated for traffic? See, here's what's going to happen. Ryan's going to take his sadness and it's going to transfer into anger. And we're going to have to go bail him out of jail. The UK police officers are taking it. By the way, I've seen this emotion happen with Ryan, where he flips from sadness to anger. I've seen it. He was sad the night he punched the car at roosters on Preston Highway.

his sadness went to anger. Sadness to madness. That's how he gets the emotions out. That's exactly right. People think Ryan is like Mr. Nice Guy, and he is. But he's got the quickest trigger of anyone on this show. His anger, like I get frustrated. Ryan gets angry.

Do you agree with that, Shannon? He can. He can. I haven't seen it many times, but I've seen it a couple of times. He's got the quickest to anger. of anyone involved in this show. And I, somebody needs, if you're moving your kid in, like, calm me down. Give him the back around.

Give him like a neck massage or something. You know, because I don't need him getting into anything. Let's go to Wa. What's up, Waugh? Good morning, gentlemen. I have the opportunity to drive through Nashville every once in a while. What is the huge structure they're building next to Nissan Stadium? And I'll hang next to looking to your answer.

I think that's the other football stadium, right? That's the other stadium. coming up, building them right next to it. So are they going to tear down the stadium that they have? Yep, yep. I haven't been down there in a while, but it's coming along. I've seen pictures. You definitely know it's there, but that is the new home of your never Super Bowl champion, Tennessee Titans.

I won on ESPN the other day. We had a guest on them, what is the football? No, it was Mina Kimes. I asked her, what is the football fan base that you meet the fewest fans of? And she said by far the Tennessee Titans. She's like, I don't ever see a Tennessee Titans fan anywhere. Well, even if you go to a Titans game, it's such a destination city. When teams get their schedule in there in Nashville, that's like number one on their list.

So if you go, I've been when they're playing the Raiders, the bills, so many big fan bases. And it can be in a way game for the Titans in their own stadium. Does it make you sad that you're the fan, a fan of a team that doesn't have fans? A little bit. There's a little bit of a part of liking a losing team and sticking with them where you have some pride. We all have friends that like the Patriots because Tom Brady. Anybody can pick the winner. Yeah. But there is something with sticking with a loser that is a

perennial loser. I've never wins my whole life. Pirates. Speaking of the stadium, I had a fun moment yesterday. I got to big time him a little bit. What? They've been calling me because I was considering season tickets and I said my circumstances have changed and they're like, what happened? I'll work for the NFL now. So I can't. You can't just be sitting with peasants, but if you have a booed.

Hang on, you drop the I work for the NFL. I had to. I had to let them know that I'm no longer considering. You know what, Shannon? First class flight. I'm hot right now. Listen to this guy. Just today, first class flight,

boozy private dinner club and I work for the NFL. Can't be seen this morning. I had to let them know. Wow. I wouldn't even, let me tell you something, Chan. I wouldn't even say I work for the NFL. Drew just leveled up. We haven't even done a show yet.

I wouldn't let him know I'm their boss. Okay. You cover zero. Learn it. You need to calm down. Windle. Go ahead, Wendell. Yeah, I had a comment about your safari trip.

Okay. I think the reason you're getting all these women because they look at these other groups, see these other guys, and then they look at your picture and say, well, that's guy ain't going to have a sense. Let's join him. I'm going to try to get up What?

Hang up on Wendell. Personally, they don't show pictures on there. It wasn't very nice. Not calling the day. That was the, that's just the unnecessary shot of the day. Well, say anything Wednesday's back. Yeah, I did the Epstein. You got this guy.

I don't get it. 859-280-2287. Did you see that we have a new area code in Kentucky? Did. So we used to have, so what were the original area codes? Just 606 and 502? Is that right? 606, 502 was the original original.

Yeah. Even before 606. I'm pretty sure it used to be all of Kentucky at one time. So you had 5.02, then we added 606, and that's become like a mountain thing, right? 606, bong, right? Then I think they added 859 because they, They said, and the 859 was supposed to be for UKY, right, the numbers. Then I think they added 270 for the Western part of the day.

I remember when that happened, it was a big deal. So, so at 502, 606, 859, 270. Well, now the Louisville area needs more numbers. So starting in 2027, any new phone in Louisville will be 761. will be the fifth area code of Kentucky 761. Do you like 761? I don't. I want 502 because that's just what I've known my entire life.

761 is going to take a lot of getting used to. First of all, when you see a 761, you're going to know this is new money. Uh-huh. Like you haven't been here very long. That's right. You're a transplant. You're not a true Kentucky. You're not true Kentucky.

That's the thing. When I see that, you're not Kentuckian to me. Yeah. You got shipped in from somewhere else. You're not, you have many are very long with the 7-6-1. That's right. Now, when they split 606 and 859, they did it on geography, right? They just changed a lot of people's numbers, didn't they? Am I right about that?

I think they made everybody in Lexington, they were just like, your numbers now 859. I kind of feel like we changed from 502 to 270 like that too. They just said all of your numbers are now. I was young, but I think that's how it happened. I think that's how they did it. But this is one. They're not going to change anybody's number. They're just going to say every number from here on out is 761.

Apparently in 2014, they added a 364 to overlay the area code 270. So there's also a 364? Yeah, 364. Who's a 364? It's first of heard of that one. I don't think. I think that's a lot. Let me look at the text machine.

I want to see if I've ever gotten a 364. See, my text machine, a lot of 859s, a lot of 270s, 502s, 606s is. What'd you say 364? I have a lot of spam calls from It's from Western Kentucky it says Bowling Green. Yep. I don't see any 364s. I got three of them. Is it just for

spam? Is it just for spam numbers? No, I don't think so. It says Western Kentucky. I don't have one 364. Well, they must not be very prolific on the tax machine. I know some people in Louisville who might have young kids and they're thinking about going ahead and getting signed up for a phone

number to get a 502 before. And what about at the derby, 50 Tuesday? I mean, 502 is a whole brand. 761 day. Yeah, I mean, 50 Tuesday, then Louisville puts 502 on their shirts. They have to do 502 parentheses 761. And 761. We just ignore it.

We ignore those people. All right, let's not ignore cornbread hemp. If you need to rest and relax, go to cornbread hemp the seltzers. Dude, people love these cornbread hemp seltors.

I'll bet you a paramed apostle chin here you do.

So let's talk about it. Join me on my new podcast. How hard can it be with Deanna Maria. where I call on my Gen X squads from Ohio to Hollywood as we navigate Midlife's most fantastic BS. All of a sudden, I'd had hanginess happening on my own. I was like, what the hell is that? I was married when I had her, so I didn't even consider how empty that nest was going to be. Mood swings, night sweats, fupas, sex drive.

Wait, what sex? Dating at 45, how I can it be getting naked at 50 with the new guy. That one's kind of hard. Well, that's lighting. They say we can't polish a turd, but we're sure going to try. So let's get blunt with laughs, tears, or tears of laughter, and dive into it, unfiltered and unbothered and ask, how hard can it be? I cannot believe I'm about to say this out loud in public.

Welcome back. It is KSR. 859-2-80-2287. Text machine is... What person writes, Matt? I thought you'd lead with the Reds. Since you didn't, I do have to ask, do we bench Matt McLean?

Yes. We won last night, though. That's two in a row on the way. I have to tell you, Shannon. I love the West Coast games. I do. Do you get to stay up late and watch the Reds? Stay up now.

Lay in bed, watch. Ellie scored from first twice, Shannon on a single. Oh, that one in left field where he was, I think he was stealing and made it from first base was amazing. How did he make it all the way home? A single to left field and he makes it from first to home.

That's like the video that you got to find, Shannon, I think I tweeted out this morning. You got to play the Angels call of it. The Angels guy is like baffled as to how he did it. And that's why we won the game. I mean, we got two extra runs by Ellie running fast. Matt McClain's awful. He had a 60. He gets his bat broken every time.

But, you know, I want him to be good because he was good a couple years ago, but he's not good. But this team, it's fun. We're still only a game back hanging on. No one goes to the games in Anaheim. Forget their team. I mean, first of all, are they, what are they now? They've been the Anaheim Angels, the L.A. Angels, the California Angels. In all seriousness, what are they now?

Which one of those? Anahom, right? I think they're Los Angeles. I thought they were California. What are they? Look them up. I'm trying to get into Twitter so I can play. They're L.A.

L.A. Yeah. Okay. They also, the cowboy, was just ranting about how bad Mike Trout was now. Does he stink? He was like, he throw fastball Mike Trout. He ain't got no chance. I mean, it happens to all of us.

He got old. Can't swing. He's the best player in a market that. just forgotten or at least a team that's forgotten. He'll be in the Hall of Fame and not one person could ever tell you what he looks like. I have not one Mike Trout memory. I just know he's good. He is gonna be in the Hall of Fame.

There has to be nobody in sports who was better that was more unknown than that guy. Mike, seriously, Mike Trout could go to a Trout convention and no one would know who he is. I'm saying, like, can you name a better athlete that, if it's a, a major sport that has less like, you know, less cue rating. Less people know what he looks like. We couldn't even name the city that his team is representing. I can't, can you

think of one? No, it's why I brought up. He's very good. And you forget he's there. I mean, I'm sure there is, you know, another one out there, but I can't think of anybody right now. I cannot think of anybody that's better that no one knows. Here was the play. There he goes. Huge jumping in. Duhart, Dumpson-Basit in the left. excitement I need for my announcers. Right?

Even excited for the other team. When you see something amazing, you need to be, you need to be into it. Let's go to fake Barney. Go ahead. Hey, to Shannon, and happy birthday, Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve to Matt. And could someone get a message to Drew's Butler that I said, hey. Well, listen, I've got to ask anything Wednesday, but first, I just want to let everyone know. that folks here in North Carolina are not talking about John Wall retiring.

It's just women enraged everywhere that Madison is off the market. I can understand. My ask anything Wednesday is for Shannon. Can I please hear your impression again of Matt as a Chihuahua? I'll hang up and listen to him. People seem to like that. The worst and best poodle. People seem to like that impression.

I don't know. I don't think it sounds like me, but that's okay. Tyler, go ahead, Tyler. This has been a wild Ask Anything Wednesday. It has so far. This is not my question, but do you think you would recognize Rip Hamilton if he doesn't have a mascot? I think I would, but the mask does help. He might be one of the most.

Again, it's asking anything. We might be one of the more famous masked players of all time. You're exactly right. What else you got? So here's my question is a fair or foul? So I live in Lexington in a neighborhood with a lot of houses close together. It's not Masterson Station, but imagine like Masters Station. I'm a neighbor behind me into the right kind of caddy corner or Fence's Touch.

And they have two dogs that just bark incessantly. They'll bark if no one's outside. They'll bark if any animal's outside. If I'm back out grilling, you can forget about it. It's just constant. 30 seconds. Without me directly addressing them. And I've said, like, hey, you got a great guard dog bear, and they just kind of laugh it off.

But it barks a lot. Is it fair, foul, if I have some type of one of those, like, sound machines that, like, a dog perceived that would stop it from barking in my yard. I thought you were going to say. Like a nose whistle or something. Yeah, I don't know. I appreciate the call. Is that bad? I'm not a dog guy.

Is it bad to, so what is that? Is that like a machine that only the dog can hear? Yeah, it's like a high-pitched. And is it bad for the dog? it irritates the dog. But would it get the dog to shut up? Probably. Yeah.

So how did the neighbors send me an Amazon link to those? And he said, you want to go half-season, put these in all these trees back here? So is that considered a bad thing to do? I didn't agree to it, but I also thought about it for a little bit. See, I don't know what the, I don't know what the etiquette is. I think you just knock on the door and you go, look, like I did with the kids. You got to get your dog to shut up. And then if they don't, send Sonic sound waves.
