I saw zero fireworks. I was not the most patriotic person. Zero fireworks. Zero fireworks. They were outside my door and I did not walk to the window to look up. You know, I hate fireworks. I think fireworks might be the most overrated thing. I hear you.

You hush your mouth. You like them. I love some fireworks. Why do you like them? Well, in Bullet County, you can't avoid them, first of all. Nobody. But Bullet County, they give them to babies. Nobody per capita spends more money than Bullet County does.

Is that right? Yes. I mean, it was going off last night, like a Fourth of July party on the fifth of July. So, Bullock County, what are the things Bullock County has a lot of? Mountain Dew, fireworks, and what else? Awesomeness. Awesomeness. Okay.

That should be on the thing. Well, I, you know, I usually try to actively avoid them. It's good to get out of the way if they're coming at you. Yeah. But, uh, my friend. hubby, he has like a neighborhood thing. So, you know, I've committed to try to be like a neighbor to people. You know, because everywhere I've lived, Shannon, I've not known my neighbors.

Yeah. So I'm going to try to become neighbors. You're branching out. Now, this isn't my neighborhood. But the premise is still the same. You're practicing. Practicing. So I went over, I guess, I'd allow our country club.

You know, that's a, that's fancy schmancy, right? I've only been over there one time. Well, no, I didn't get to go to the country club. They put a wall around them. You know you are exclusive when you're like, we are building a wall to keep the people out. It's kind of tucked in over there too. Yes, and it's in downtown Lexington and they're like, nope, don't come near here. But apparently they put on, sources told me, Shannon.

You want to know what? Now, this is, again, this is unofficial. Okay. Sources told me that I'd allow her. You want to know what I heard they spend on their fireworks? Just take a guess. What do you think a country club should spend on the... I'm going to say $8,000.

What do you think, Shadegh? Yeah, I was going to say like $10, $10,000. I heard 60. Wow. Now, I don't know if that's true. Okay, so I want to be clear. That's a lot of money for fireworks. So the neighborhood was talking about.

There's some gossip on the streets. Here's the thing. You know, the country club pays for it. But the people around the idle hour, they kind of like, they get the benefit without having to pay. They get the scraps. That's it. So, like, I drove by the country club. The Shriners, I guess it's not called Shriners anymore, but what is that on Richmond Road, the huge facility, close to where Cal used to live.

And I was like, what are all these people doing? They were setting up to steal the fireworks. Oh, on that big hill? Yeah, they were setting up on that hill. And by steel, I mean, watch. You know, people were parked in the median, which I didn't even know you were allowed to do on Richmond Road. No rules on the fourth. On the fourth, there's no rules.

So anyway, we went over there, watched it. I would admit to you, Shannon, after three minutes, I was good. You'd seen her now, huh? Okay, look, there are the colors. That's nice. Look, there's red. They could at least handle you a spark. So I'm kind of anti-firework.

But it was good to have, to meet people. There was a guy from my neighborhood. They had, in my neighborhood, which is the Green Bay Area, they had a golf cart parade. Oh, yeah. It's a big deal out there for that. Now, that is something I'm not. anti. You're anti the golf cart parade. They do this in Florida. Like it's such a big deal. Decorate your golf. Nobody would see your damn golf carts. Well, these people had decorated their

golf cart. I didn't, listen, if you don't know a golf cart parade is happening and you just walk outside and you see golf carts dressed in flags, you think, am I being invaded by old people? Did you wave a little flag as it passed? No, I didn't know it was happening. They had a post-golf cart parade cookout, but no one had invited me to it. And I didn't feel like I could just walk. You can't just walk into a strange. Oh, they were outside. Are you allowed to just walk into someone's yard at a cookout?

Is it like one house or was it like at the country club? No, it was at one person's house. If it's in one person's house, that's a little, well, people kind of look at you like, who's this guy? Yeah. So I didn't go. I didn't go. No, you know, as I was walking, another guy goes, come over later for pork.

but then he didn't tell me where he lived. Got to follow the smell. So these are all things I've got to learn about neighborhoods. But it was a good Fourth of July outside of that. And, you know, so my point is, Drew, I interacted with people. Something that I've generally tried to not do in neighborhoods. It's new times going to try to interact with people. You had a breakthrough on America's 250th.

Where I live, you can walk out and see big shows in like four directions. I can see Greenbrier. I can see downtown. My neighborhood had a big one. I sat on the couch. There was a Salt and Peppa concert. Oh, actually, I watched them on TV. Does that count?

I saw the New York ones. See, I think fireworks on TV are even worse. Well, I just didn't want to get us. What is the point of watching a firework on television? I'm with you. Like, I need to be able to feel that boom in my beam. I can hear the boom. You know what I mean? It's not the same.

I could hear it all around me. You can hear it. Oh, yeah. Does the city do one? Yeah, downtown. Feels like the city should do one. They do one downtown. Okay.

If a baby were a little bit older, we probably, I heart would be a great place to come up and watch it, you know, all glass down here downtown, but she doesn't care about fireworks. I kept reading online. You know, I was on Facebook a little more this weekend than usual because I just started going down rabbit holes of, you know, just weirdness all across the state. And people get very upset. A lot of people say in their Facebook post, think about the dogs today. Yeah.

Yeah. But what do they mean? Dogs go crazy with the noises. You can't give them a shot. So dogs don't like the fireworks? And I was a little worried with a newborn. She was asleep and there were some loud noises and she'd kind of jerk and startle, but she never woke up. So when someone says on Facebook, think about the dogs, what am I supposed to do? Pray for them?

Probably not shoot fireworks at 1 a.m. But do they really think that people are not going to shoot fireworks? It's the 4th of July. So I kind of don't understand what those posts are because they'll go, everyone needs to think about the dogs. And so, you know, I'm going to be considerate. So I'm like, all right. Yep, I think about them. I'm thinking about them.

Now, watch those M80 go off. Now, what am I supposed to do now that I'm thinking about them? If you have a dog, you can't get it to shut up when fireworks are going on. So does it specifically affect dogs? Dogs and babies. Right across the street from me, it sounded like they were shooting cannonballs. And I was so worried I was going to have a crime. Is it because something's happening or is because the sound hits them a specific way?

It's probably just that it's so loud. Something new, startles them. They're reacting. which leads me to one more thing. Do you know, Shannon, you may not. But you know where Joseph Beth bookstore. Of course, I was there yesterday. So there was a Reddit thread this weekend of people talking about, and this is, this has screwed me up.

You were there yesterday, right? We're going there today, Shannon, for the suits. Blackson green. Brown suit meeting. Lexington Green at Logans. They said that there is outside of Lexington Green in that little, what do you call it? porch area. Like, what do you call those things?

Back where Palmer's is? No, no, just in front of... In the front. In the front. Whatever that is. It's like the rotunda or whatever. That they play a high-pitched sound to keep birds away. And these people on this Reddit thread, there were some people saying, I can't even walk in there because the sound hits me so much.

And then I've realized I don't even hear the sound. Do you hear the sound? I've never heard it. I've been there a couple times in the last month. They literally can't even go because it gets in their brain so much. And yet, I've never heard it. And it makes me wonder, am I deaf? Are those people crazy?

Does that sound actually exist? Or are they making this up? I've never heard it. I've been there a couple times in the last month. I used to work over there. I don't know if they did it years ago. So you don't hear it. Never heard it.

I don't hear it. Today, Mario Shannon, you all have to tell me when we go out there. Okay. Yeah. do you hear it? What if they just fold over in pain as soon as we get close? She says Mario walks in and he just starts yelling. Turn it off.

So I am going to ask the listeners, 7-7-2-7-4-4-4-4-do any of you hear that. Because on Reddit there were many, many people saying they've got to stop doing that. It's too loud. And I don't hear one thing. How could they hear it, but you guys can't hear it? That's what I'm saying. Are there sounds that some humans? I know there are sounds dogs can hear or birds can hear.

that we can't hear. But are there sounds that humans can hear that other humans can't hear? I think there's maybe a gap in like a level you could hear and I could hear, but it wouldn't it'd be a thin margin. I don't think it'd be like, you know, dogs have dog whistles. The people in this story were acting like they walk around going, stop. Ears are bleeding. And I can't hear one thing.

You remember Yonty and Laurel. Some people heard Laurel. Some people heard Yonnie. So maybe there is a thing. That's right. In the dress where some people saw blue and some people saw yellow. Maybe there is something to it. I'll let you know when I get there today.

I'll get to the bottom of this. If the four of us, if none of us can hear it, then I'm leaning towards the Reddit people are making this up, unless people tell me on the text machine that they can hear. I've been going to Joseph Beth for 20 years and have never heard it. So I don't know. Yeah, I'm calling out a bluff here. I don't think it's true.

Well, we'll find out. Now, the other thing that's happening is tonight, well, first of all, last night, the Mexico England soccer game. Shannon, did you watch it? I didn't even know it was on. No. Well, what is it with you all? Like, you and Ryan in the World Cup, like that was a massive.

I'm worried about our country. We played tonight at 8 o'clock. You didn't even think about turning on Mexico and England in Mexico City? You could argue Mexico and England might be the two countries the closest to us, both like, historically, geographically, and you just weren't interested. Not at all. Nope. But I'm happy for you.

I'll go to dream. One of the best sporting events I've ever seen. When you combine environment and intention and excitement, I mean, soccer is not the most exciting sport in the world. But nevertheless, just the whole thing and the crowd shots and the national anthems. And like, the one guy had a thing on his ear. And it just everything was just so exciting. Yeah.

And, you know, they're pretty close teams. Like, the points per have pretty close too. But like for England, it looked like you were going to run away with it. Run away with the Mexico. Just keep it close. Keep it close. And it kept giving them hope, which has made the atmosphere even better. Oh, I mean, the beginning.

First of all, I don't know what they do at a stadium as teca. But like that seems the place is just wild. They don't stop. And then when the Mexican National Anthem, again, I'm not trying to make everybody mad. But the Mexican National Anthem seems so fun, right? Are you ranking it ahead of Star-Spangled Banner? Well, first of all, British national anthem is just

our song. I mean, I know we stole it from them, but is it my country tis of thee, right? It's ours. We took it when we won the war. Okay. But I know that song. But the Mexican song, they're all gleeful and like it's kind of upbeat.

Did you see the night before the party they had outside England's hotel? Is that fair or foul, Shannon, for the Mexican fans to stand outside the English hotel and try to keep the players up all night? launching fireworks. I think that's foul. I think it's foul. You do? I think it's pretty fair thing. Isn't that what home field advantage is? Absolutely. Speaking of home field advantage, I was thinking if I were an England fan, I am taking

off my England shirt on the way out. You're exactly what I thought. When that game was over, I had to be, if I was an England fan, I'd be like, can I get an escort out of here? I'm walking out naked. I wouldn't wear an England jersey. Do you like that England sings Oasis after it's over? It threw me off because they're in Mexico City. I guess the winning team picks the playlist, but I thought, Oh, they see a wonderful. Yeah, they see. Champaign Supernova. They said, baby.

The whole, the team went and sang that with the crowd. So, like, their country roads is Wonderwall. I mean, they got the Beatles, right? And they're choosing oases over the Beatles. But I will say when they got to the chorus, they were yelling it. I mean, they were, they were into it. You didn't really know they were there until it was over. You're going to be the one that saves me.

How about the injury and the celebration of the guy jump on the wall? Did you see that? Okay. It was a wonder wall. Which one are you talking about? One of England's players hurtled the little wall to celebrate. Oh, he got hurt? Bad.

They had to bring out stretchers. He's out. Oh, I must have missed that part. Yeah, so they're starting midfielder. I did like at the end of the game when the Mexican player got hurt and they didn't have any more substitutions, Shannon, so they just dragged him to the side and left him. Did you see that? They're up against the clock.

They literally just, they literally, he just was lame. all the action was just right next to him and he was agonizing in pain and they just left him laying there. I only had about a minute and a half. They had to get him off the pitch. They rolled him right over the line and left him. No, but an England player, like, they're hopping the little wall to celebrate with the crowd and he gets tripped up. It can't tell if he breaks his arm or his leg, but it's bad. They brought out stretchers and he's out and out.

What half was that? I must have walked. It was right after it ended. They went to like celebrate with their crowd. Oh, it was after it ended? It was not even that big of a wall. And like one of them hops in another hops. That'd be the worst.

to get hurt during the celebration. They had to bring security to put around him as they brought the stretchers out. Wow. Okay. Well, we're going to talk about the USA, obviously, some controversy, but excitement games tonight. Are you going to watch the game tonight, Shannon? I'm going to watch a little bit of it. Yeah, we're getting, you know, what, round of 16. As we get closer, I'm getting just a little bit more interested. I mean, this is massive tonight. This is like, USA's only made it passed the round of 16 once in its history. I know the name of one player now. Who? Balagan. Well, we're going to talk about balligan and more. And you can tell me if that sound is actually there.

We will take a break. It's KSR here. There's actually a lot of UK basketball today, too. We'll be right back. Hey, I'm Hoda Kotby, host of the podcast, Joy 101 with Hoda Kotby. Okay, if you know me, you know this. I'm always searching for inspiration, for support, and useful tools to help maximize joy. So this podcast lets us uncover all of that together.

We're going to have these meaningful conversations with the world's most fascinating people. Like when actress Olivia Munn shared how she overcame fierce health challenges that she never saw coming. I've gone through breast cancer and then helped my mother through breast cancer. And that was more difficult. There's a lot of people who understand postpartner depression. I was not prepared for postpartum anxiety. Olympic champ Sean Johnson revealed why she had no choice. but to be a gymnast.

There was something about gymnastics that was intoxicating to me. It's given me a belief that we all have one of those treasures inside of us. We just have to find it. Listen to Joy 101 with Hoda Kotby on the IHeart Radio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, everyone, it's the Jonas Brothers. If you haven't heard, our new podcast is called Hey Jonas. And this week, we're hanging out with someone we're really big fans of. Millie Bobby Brown. That's right.

A loving herself. We talk about, her new movie, Anola Holmes 3, Family Life, and all the amazing things she has going on right now. This blew my mind when I saw this, Millie Bobby Brown. You have over 60 animals. First of all, how do you even keep track of everybody? And second, do you have favorites? Who are they and why?

Yeah, I need to know about this. Okay. I don't know where the number's 60. I really got to figure that out. And I could actually have over 60. I just need to really know that number. There have been plenty of sheep in my bed. It's a big bed.

In the bed, literally sleeping in the bed, yeah. Plus, we find out what she really feels about Stranger Things ending. Five seasons, almost 10 years of your life. I could have never have guessed it.

My first guest is Paris Holtin, Shakira, Luke and Yerrin, Samira and Gracie. I'm so excited. On the bouncy bed. You have surprises? Many surprises. Welcome to Sweet 305 where the group chat comes to life. What a . It's like a way to say like,

Oh, my God, hello, my friend, hello, Hello, my brother. What a . Look, I've never ever had to have with my kids, my kids, so, my mom. Oof, yeah, that's the telenovela.

You're the only person I know that loves a Yellow Starburst. It's limited. There's a woman that you can't that you'd like you say, I'd like to collaborate with this person. This is Sweet 305. Listen to Sweet 305 with Lele Pons

as part of my Cultura podcast network on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Jake Brennan, and on my podcast, Disgraceland, I tell the stories behind music's biggest names, the moments, rumors, and real life events that help shape their legacy. Like the story behind Sonic Youth

that starts with downtown New York, cool, and ends with album art inspired by a true crime. Sonic Youth was not fronted by a groupie hustling alpha like David Lee Roth. No, Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore was an artist in love with a fellow artist who just happened to play bass in the same band with him and his other artist friends. Her name was Kim Gordon. And Thurston and Kim were every bit as cool as the couple on the cover of Goode. the same couple involved in one of the UK's darkest true crimes.

Disgraceland is part of the exactly right network. Listen to new episodes every Tuesday, bonus episodes Thursday, and rewinds on Sunday on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It was cool. Is this better or worse than country roads? Worse. I mean, I like the song better, but I mean, I don't feel like this is a better party song.

Party in the USA. It's kind of a downer song. Well, but Country Roads is kind of a downer song. No. I feel like it's upbeat, right? Okay. You know, it's more happy. Yeah.

Well, apparently the announcer said during the thing that when Mexico scores, they have to put umbrellas over their head because people throw so much beer in the air. Yeah, they're on beer. They also threw a lot of beer on the field during the red card. I mean, they were an active group last night. Yeah, I'm with you. If I was a British, I'd have been like, how do I get out of here? Okay, so a lot of people writing saying they hear it.

One person says, Matt, when I go in there, it's so bad I have to run in the door. What? This is crazy. That's dramatic. I never heard it. I've been over there a thousand times. I used to work in there. One person says, you all won't be able to hear it because you're old, but Mario will fall

on the ground in pain. That big ears, I can hear. You and I both have big ears. We should be able to hear this. I'm excited to see Mario. All right. Apparently it's used to, for mosquitoes. they're saying.

Okay. To keep them away. I feel like I'm like, do I need to get my hearing checked if I can't hear it? You might have a hearing loss. Go ahead. You probably have a hearing loss. That's exactly right. All right.

So let's talk about the, we'll go the phones in a minute. 859, 2802287. Let's talk about the U.S. game. So we lost balligan to, to a red card that shouldn't have been a red card. And now it looks like Donald Trump got involved. By the way, I predicted this. If you were listening to ESPN, when the news broke, I said Donald Trump is going to take credit. And he did.

And it turns out like he, it looks like he made a call. Now, Belgium this morning has filed appeal and they're going to have a hearing this morning. So I guess there's still a chance to go back the other way. What are your thoughts on all this? Obviously, I loved it. That was such a bull crap call. It shouldn't have happened. Yeah, as a starting point, he probably should have never gotten.

Everyone is pretty much in agreement, not just Americans. Everyone's an agreement. That shouldn't have happened. You know, FIFA is one of the most corrupt organizations on the planet. I'm glad that we're benefiting. We're on the good side of their corruption. Because they have a rule where you can't do this. I love that they just change.

They specifically have a rule that you cannot do exactly what they do. So I love that we're on the good side of their corruption and that they're changing it. So like, I consider this similar to when you get a call in college basketball and you know the call's wrong, Shannon. And you just go, well, keep playing. But they never go back They never go back and overturn it like they're doing it. This is kind of wild that they're doing it. My view is very simple.

He should have been playing anyway. It is clear that this is like corrupt. But you know what? This time it's on our side. And it is what it is. You know what? If I was Belgium, I'd be mad. They're very mad.

If I was the rest of the world, I'd be mad. but like I'm not. I'm America and I'm so I'm glad we I'm glad he's playing. Now we got to win though. You know, you got to win at this point. It's good that home field advantage workforce. If it's not in America, they probably don't do this.

Oh, if it's in any other country, he's not playing. Yeah. But you're right. We have to finish the job, especially we're probably a little bit of the bad guys now to the rest of the field if we weren't already. And I said this on Twitter. Like for people like me who do not like Trump, this is not the time to complain about Trump's corruption.

Complain about the $2.2 billion he's gotten in the last year. You could complain about that, but this actually helps us. So let's just let this one go. That's my president. Yeah. Make soccer great again. It's a good. It was perfect.

Yes. We deserve it. So you know what? It is what it is. But if I were Belgian, I'd be upset. And the Belgian people seem pretty upset. Yeah. I mean, imagine we're in the,

Final four and, you know, we're playing Duke and their best players out. But the day before they're like, you know what, we're going to put them back in. We would be pretty upset. Yeah. And the game was on Duke's campus. You know, it would be. Coach Kay calls the NCAA and gets it fixed. So the game is tonight.

I am going to make the claim that this is probably in my lifetime. One of the bigger patriotic U.S. sporting events ever. I was trying to think of, can you think of a time? I'm sure people older than me would say the U.S. hockey game, but like I wasn't, I wasn't really, I was a lot, but I didn't know what was going on. Can you think of a time that America has been more excited for an American sporting event than this? Not really. I thought about like, you know, Olympic basketball were so good. We know we're going to win most of the time. But we'd rarely have ever have anything like this in Olympic basketball.

When they played France in basketball this year, that was very exciting. but the game is like at 8 in the morning and I don't know how much a lot of people weren't even awake this is prime time it's in our country we're not an underdog in the match but we're a big underdog in the sport

like we've never really had success internationally can you think of one Shannon where there's been a game where America was playing no I mean not like team America but I mean like maybe like after 9-11

like the first Yankees game or something like that everybody was watching No, that was a huge deal, but it wasn't an American team playing. I just think this is like we're not used to this. Like when I used to see videos or even when I went to soccer and people are crying and stuff, we've not really had this and we're having it here. And I think that's really kind of fascinating because we've not done this. When you see, when you saw the pictures in Mexico yesterday,

that's kind of normal for them. We've never really had that, and now we're going to have it tonight. Yeah, I mean, we've had like gold cups and stuff, but the rest of the casual sports fans don't get into that. My mom didn't know when those games were. My mom knows tonight. Everyone I know except maybe Shannon and Ryan are locked in tonight. Yeah, I mean, my mom is coming to my house and was like, we're going to watch it tonight. Like, she's not, she didn't know the gold cup.

This is the only time that's ever happened. And Seattle is a great place to have it. They're going to be going crazy. Well, they'll be going crazy everywhere. But in that city and that stadium, we might rival Mexico City's crowd last night. So it's going to be neat because it's going to be passionate. I mean, did you see the pictures at 4th Street yesterday, Shannon, of the Mexico game? No, no.

Oh, my goodness. Well, now it's going to be like that tonight for the USA. Is Lexington have a place? I don't know. Okay, turn that off. Turn that off. Come on. No, I'm going to sing country roads.

It's getting me fired up. I'll take my hat off. All right. We'll be right back. KSR. 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. All right, so all of you, there are people writing me going, you know, FIFA has Rule 27. First of all, you don't know what FIFA rules are.

You just learned that, and you probably saw it in a tweet. The reality is they've never done this before during a match. Now, or during the tournament. They did it for Ronaldo before the tournament and they've done that before but never during the tournament. I don't care. Look, can we all just acknowledge it was probably corrupt? 24 hours before.

It was probably corrupt. 24 hours before the game. Like they could have done it four days ago. They did it 24 hours for the game. It was probably corrupt. That's okay though. Just acknowledge, thank you. Corruptness.

I'm sure Wisconsin fans enjoyed that shot clock violation. Exactly. You don't have to sit there and go, actually, shot clocks do not. No, it was a violation. Right. It was a violation. I just saw the video of that English guy.

Breaking his arm. To be going through and then you're out. That was awful. That's awful. Real quick. What do we make of Kirk Creeza? You know, I've been in a little bit of communication with Kerr, getting ready for TBT. I was wondering. Actually, delete that.

As your lawyer. As your attorney. It's been strictly about basketball. We needed to not have what. It's been strictly about basketball. basketball. Why would you say that? What's about basketball?

I have proof. I was hoping to have him on the show before TBT while you're out. Probably not good. He's been making his rounds on other appearances. He's seen fired up, ready to go back in Lexington, been hanging out with 20, promoting it. This was just shocking that this happened. It was shocking.

And let me say, I had like a double shock. All of a sudden, I have somebody go, what a report by Jack Pilgrim in my heart. drops a little bit. Uh-oh. Because he was the one that reported. Yeah. So I called him, this is what you do, Shannon, when you have trust in people. I called Jack and said, are you sure? And he goes, I'm a thousand percent sure. Yep. And I was like, okay. Then I'll, but you know, when you're talking about federal indictment and like, newspapers all over picked up KSR and LinkedIn. We were cited for every, like no one else had it. Good work. Jack. So apparently, according to,

some folks who wrote me. He was arrested Friday like at a bank here in town. From what I hear, I can't, I'm not a thousand percent, but that was just what people were saying. He was in jail in Lexington. TV stations confirmed he was in jail. Jack's reporting is federal indictment for fraud going back to his days at West Virginia. No idea what that means. I would guess we'll probably figure out today because he's going to be extradited. today. He had a long week. So he was just at the Fayette County Jail all week.

And then we'll get extradited. But fraud, that's a lot. Now, and when the FBI's involved, it's not small time. When the FBI's involved, it ain't,

it ain't a joke, right? People have been trying to guess, like, that it might have been gambling. I have no idea, like, I haven't seen or heard anything like that.

I will not, I don't want to go into, details. But you and I both know, Drew, there have been whispers about something that Kerr would do involving tickets for a long time. And it was one of those things that you didn't know, so you didn't talk about. But you can't help but wonder when you hear this if that was something. Yeah, the gambling thing took off. I saw a screenshot where somebody asked AI, you can't use AI for like search for something like this, for something that's just happened because it'll just it'll make something up to have an answer for you. I think that's where it originated.

Could turn out being that. And I don't think that mugshot was correct either. I think that was fake. The mugshot that's getting sent around, I don't think that's right. I think that's made up. Well, regardless, I don't know what he did. But as we said, with the FBI getting involved for fraud, this looks to be major, major trouble for him. We'll probably find out more today. But quite a situation. You know, you can't help but go, okay, well, he played for Kentucky. Is this going to involve? From what we understand. It all goes back to things from West Virginia. That's why they're sending them back there. So that at least is good. That was a West Virginia

team, Shannon, by the way, that went nine and 23, the one he was on. So just keep that in mind. They had all kinds of other side stories too. It was wild. They've had like four or five people get in trouble from that team. That might be one where they do a documentary one. Is that Huggins last year or two? I think so. So, so anyway, we will see. We need a guard in TBT now. We do. Mario, who we were playing.

He's not going to. You're the GM. He's not going to play anymore for TBT. Do you have any other? I think it's fair to say he's out. I think it's fair to say he's questionable with federal indictment. I mean, of all the headlines to get Fourth of July weekend,

who could have seen that coming up? Former UK player are getting involved with the FBI. If you had told me someone from the last five years, had a federal indictment. Would he have been on your short list? If you told me it was fraud, yes. I think that might have been my first guess. And I can't believe you just said, I've been in communication with him.

Not since the arrest. Innocent stuff. I'll tweet the screenshots. Jacob, go ahead, Jacob. Zero fraud on my end. Hey, so talking about the Joseph Beth with a high-pitched, I'm pretty sure it's just an age thing. So I would be shocked if Mario doesn't hear it.

Well, now if Mario doesn't hear it, he's got real problems. Can you hear it when you're there, Jacob? If Fario doesn't hear it, he probably needs to be checked. Jacob, can you hear it? I've not been there in a couple years. I'm 34 now. I could hear it two years ago. I don't know if I could hear it now.

I was like 20 when I work there every day and never heard it. I don't understand. I'm amazed how many people say they do hear it. But then there's a lot of people that say they don't. Maybe this is the difference. I appreciate the call in humanity is whether or not you can hear the Joseph Beth high pitched. Do they have that many mosquitoes?

They have to do this? I mean, I would think a bug zapper would be just fine. Maybe some citronella. I think so what somebody said in the Reddit thread was the way that the little thing is situated. I'm going to say rotunda. They collect up in the top of it. Oh, that keeps them away. And that will keep them away.

That's what that. And again, that's what some random person said on Reddit. I'm not saying that's true. I do not know. I believe them. Well, I mean, they did say this. And I thought they were lying about that. And it sounds like people say it works.

I'm excited to get out there. I'm excited to watch Mario as far as I can. I'm to watch Mario just be in agony. Pete, go ahead, Pete. Pete. Hey, guys. What's up? Hey, back in the 90s,

malls and big shopping areas when the skateboard craze really took off and those kids were hitting any handrail they could find and didn't care of people were walking around and stuff like that, a lot of those mall owners put out speakers, loudspeakers out the front of the mall that played a high frequency that you lose the ability to hear it. But you don't have to be necessarily that old. I mean, like 20 or 19, 20, 21, you lose it. So you're saying children can hear it, but not adults. Yes. I'm not

sure about the one of Joseph Beth, but now, but that was, that was a story. And because people, some people were saying what's unethical and some people were saying what does it damage they're hearing? I mean, it was a big deal back years ago because these guys were blasting this ultra-high frequency to keep kids away and skateboarders away. You should find one. And everybody else walking through couldn't hear it.

Well, I appreciate the call. We need to find the skateboarder to go and test it for us. People were saying the 99 women's World Cup was a very, even the one, remember when we had the, when the bar we did a women's World Cup run and people were really into it too. But I remember that 99 one. That's when the woman took her shirt off. Yeah, she slid after they get in the PK.

Yeah, and she took her shirt off. The Mia is her name? No, Brandy Chastain. Boom. Good call. How about that memory? Iconic moment in U.S. sports. Yes.

You think that would be controversial now that she took her shirt off? Like back then, and I don't remember it being controversial, but people get more worked up about things now. No, I don't think so. They're sports brawn. It was all right. Yeah. So I do remember that.

That's probably the biggest one. I think we were playing China maybe in that game. Mike, go ahead, Mike. Hey, Matt. What's up? Hey, so a couple of, I mean, it was just last, I mean, last year, I guess, or six months ago, we did the USA hockey. That was a pretty big U.S. It was.

But that was also in the morning. Like, it was on a, I think it wasn't it on a Sunday morning? Like, like, I do. think that was exciting and a lot of people watched it. I don't know that it had the buildup that this one did, right? Because it was, you know, it was in Italy, so it was a different time of day and all that kind of stuff. Yeah, well, I mean, I found it very, very exciting. It was a huge celebration on it.

So the other part is, yeah, the other part, let's not act like FIFA isn't a corrupt organization all the way around. They all went to prison a few years ago. I mean, I think, I think we. I think we indicted the whole leadership. It's the most corrupt. Yeah, it's maybe the most corrupt organization. Right. And then also, in fairness,

let's not act like it was a really good call or a legitimate red card. I'm on the side of. I never had a red card. I totally agree with that. I appreciate the call. I'm on the side of the right result, questionable process. Is that fair to say?

Yeah, that should never happen. There's been 30 examples. of much worse in this tournament that have gone uncalled. There's a quote from like Shakespeare that says something like the worst type of treason is the right result with the wrong reason. Oh, could you quote and Bill? Very, very philosophical. I don't remember.

Should we put that on a T-shirt for tonight? I don't. And it may not even be Shakespeare. That quote exists. I know it from somewhere. But in this case, it's not for me treason. It's we have to win. Got to win now.

No, but we just... And we're an underdog. This is a sport where we're an underdog. We never win. We're like good at everything but this. This is what we're not good at. So this is, if we're going to cheat this... Like if we cheated for the dream team in basketball, that would not be fair.

And if we break through and we play Spain on Friday, people move on, forget about this. Sorry about your luck, Belgium, but we'll get over it. What if we win and balligan scores three goals? I mean, good odds on that. I've already bet him to score one. Let's do three.

I was not prepared for postpartum anxiety.

Olympic champ Sean Johnson revealed why she had no choice but to be a gymnast. There was something about gymnastics that was intoxicating to me. It's given me a belief that we all have one of those treasures inside of us. We just have to find it.

Who are they and why? Yeah, I need to know about this. Okay. I don't know where the number's 60, and I really got to figure that out, and I could actually have over 60. I just need to really know that number. There have been plenty of sheep in my bed,

Welcome to Sweet 305, where the group chat comes to life. What a bit. It's like a way to say like, Oh, my God, Oh, my friend, hello, my Myrana. Look, never I've ever had to with nobody.

Except with my kids, my children, my wife, Oof, Oof, that's incredible, yeah, the telenovela. You're the only person I know that loves a yellow starburst.

It's rumored. And no, there's anyone that you're like, you'd like to collaborate with this person. This is Sweet 305. Listen to Sweet 305 with Lele Pons as part of my Cultura podcast network on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever

you get your podcasts. I'm Jake Brennan, and on the disgrace land podcast, I explore the wild lives of rock stars and unbelievable true crime stories from music history. These are the stories you haven't heard, the kind you'll end up telling someone else. Like the time Paul McCartney spent in one of the world's most notorious prisons. Imagine that. You're Paul McCartney. It's 1980.

You're an ex-beedal, and you're doing time in one of Japan's worst prisons right there alongside Yakuza gangsters and for a ridiculous charge. Or the bizarre crime Lady Gaga is accused of. Who is the artist Lady Gaga as being accused of doing the unthinkable to after allegedly stealing her music and style

to become famous? And what about that time, Blondie's Debbie Harry, escaped a serial killer. The man who had given her that ride she barely escaped from was Ted Bundy. Listen to disgrace land on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome back to Tatee Sports Radio. T.S. Eliot, the last act is the greatest treason to do the right deed for the wrong reason. How about that call? T.S. Eliot, you almost have it. From the back of my brain. I don't know how I remember that, but it was something. You big TSLA person?

You got more? No, that's the only two. That's the one that's stuck. You know what's funny is I can remember quotes from like 20 years ago, 30, 40 years ago. I can't remember my neighbor's names. Well, you know what's important. When I was watching those fireworks,

there was a couple that I met. And they introduced me and they said, hey, this couple lives in your neighborhood. And I was like, oh, I definitely want to remember these people. Right, because they live in my neighborhood. and they introduced themselves to me. And you know how sometimes when you introduce it, you just kind of. So then I actually asked them their name again because I was like, I want to remember these people.

Want it to stick? And 20 seconds later, I'd forgotten it again. And so I couldn't ask them. We can't ask them again. So I look at Hubby and I go, okay, what are their names again? I want to remember these people. I don't know. Because they live six houses from me.

And he was like, I'll tell you how you can remember this. their names are Corey and Lee. And you have a friend named Corey Lee. Now you won't forget. And now we'll not forget. Shannon and I will remember their names forever. Yeah. Because they're Corey and their Lee.

And I have a friend named Corey Lee. Are Corey and Lee listeners of the show? Because now they know that you couldn't think of their name. Good point. Maybe shouldn't have said that. Maybe that's like Drew with the phone conversations with Kirk Crease. I keep getting random phone calls from a number I don't have saved. Am I in trouble?

FBI. I think I want to have a few words with you. That's a good point, Shannon. That might have been a story for the inside voice. Yeah. Well, Corey and Lee, now you know how important it was to me to try to remember your names. Spend it. If they didn't matter, you'd be like, whatever, I don't need to know their names.

But you're actively trying to store it in your brain. And then my friend Corey Lee, now I remember. You're not the best with names. There's been many times where you've been like the, hey, will you go introduce yourself and get their name? I do it all the time. I can't remember it. I can't remember my boss's names. Like, they'll come in here.

Many times and I will go... Are they listening? Oh, well, some of them got fired. But I would not be able to remember their names. So when you meet somebody, it wasn't Bill Clinton that would say your name back to you? Bill Clinton, they said his great strength was he could remember everyone's name. And you're right. He would meet you and you'd go, I'm Matt.

Hello, Matt. And they said his brain. That was one of his great political strengths. He could meet somebody 25 years later remember their name. That's a good thing to have. That's a great. Calling people by their name can go a long way. Looking people in the eye, calling them by their name, they like it.

Or analogizing them to other friends you have. They also like that too. They like that too. Especially when you're on a radio show and you're right. Right now they're getting text messages going. Matt is talking about you. But it's the effort you went to. You could have just gone on with your life and like, whatever, those two down the street.

But now, because Corey Lee, and now Corey Lee's probably getting tax. too that I'm, Donnie, go ahead. I know a Corey Lee also who's probably about to text me. Same Corey Lee, right? No, different Corey Lee. Okay, so we know two Cori Leys. Donnie, go ahead, Donnie. Hello, how are you guys?

Good. Good. My name's Donnie from London, Kentucky. And I've got two quick things. First of all, I am blind. And this past Father's Day, I received probably one of the greatest Father's Day gifts I've ever had in my 64 years. years of being on this earth.

My two sons brought me to KSR Bar and Grill on Thursday before Father's Day, and I got to be there for your guys' last broadcast from there, and it was wonderful. Well, thank you. That was very – I think I knew you were there, so that, yes, that was awesome, and glad you got to be there. Yeah, I actually got a picture with you as we were leaving. I remember that. Yes, I remember that.

And the second thing, I have never in my life. listened to or watched a soccer game until this year. One of my blind friends told me about an app that you can get a FIFA ADC. It stands for audio descriptive commentary. And I downloaded that app, and what they do, they describe everything. They describe what's going on on the field, what the fans are doing. They even have a segment after the game ends of what the teams are. doing, how they're interacting, what's going on.

And it is absolutely amazing. So if anybody out there is visually impaired, you can get this from the app store. It's called FIFA ADC for audio description commentary. That's great. Donnie, thank you very much. And hoping there's probably somebody out there that that will be helpful to. Appreciate the call, sir. All right.

Thanks. Appreciate it. That is nice. You know, it's funny. He said that when I have, I thought about with, because normally radio broadcasts are different than TV broadcasts, but for the soccer, they've just used the TV broadcasts. And they don't say what's going on all the time.

I'm glad to hear they do something like that. Brian, go ahead, Brian. Yes, I was calling about the being able to hear the different frequencies of sound. Yes. I'm a retired teacher. And back several years ago when all the kids started getting cell phones, you, the kids could hear a frequency that older people couldn't. Once you're 18, 19 years old, you lose the ability.

So they said to hear that frequency, and the kids would set their phones to that frequency to ring or get a text. Oh, so that you would know. Yeah, I couldn't hear it. But the kids every down and then someone say, tell them, turn that phone off. Interesting. And I wouldn't have any idea. Okay. I appreciate to call.

That is kind of a sneaky thing. those whippersnappers do. Wish I'd known about that trick. Yeah. Ryan, go ahead, Ryan. Hey, Matt, I got two quick things for you. Got about a minute. There's a chef.

His name is Thomas Strieker. Looks exactly like Shannon Ladoo. And the second thing is... Add it to the list. Yes. You need to look him up. I mean, looks just like him. Second thing, what about the pastor in Baton Rouge

that beat the snout out of his neighbor? Have you read about this story? No, a pastor beat the snot out of him. What did he do? What happened? Well, he had snot before and he had none after. You need to go watch the video. All right.

All right, I'll do that during the break. Baton Rouge pastor? Okay, I appreciate the call. I think that was in Ezekiel that you're allowed to beat up your neighbor. Be thy neighbor. If things don't go well. We will do some counties, talk some basketball, take your calls. Fun first hour.
