Welcome, everyone, to Kentucky Sports Radio, Wednesday, August 19th, on a cloudy day here in Lexington, Kentucky. I'm Billy Rutledge filling in for Matt Jones today, and you give us a call. on the Clark's Pump and Shop phone line at 859-280-2287. Texas at the AVision Auto Glass text line, which will be the KSR pre-show line. That's 502-265-66-56. And as always, the KSR is brought to you by the T.J. Smith Law Office. What do you do when you call T.J., Shannon?

If you call T.J., he'll make them pay. That's what's going to happen. That's right. Excited to be with Shannon for another two hours. I've got Ryan and Drew in studio. Mario has turned on the TV lights for the show this morning. The first thing you're griping at Mario, I can't, I can't work under these conditions. Their light is too bright.

I got into radio. My eyes. I got into, I'm not that old yet. I'm married now, but not that old. But I did get into radio because I have a face for radio guys. And now that Mario constantly uses cameras to post videos of us, it's kind of changed my thoughts on the career path. Oh, you think you're quit? What are you going to do?

I don't know. You take your ball and go home? Come on. Some of the ugliest people I know are in radio. So you've got a future in this job. Some of the ugliest people you know are in radio. In this room. In this room.

Mario has taken things another level. There's moments where I'm leaving the house. I'm like, ooh, got to remember. There's a video component to this. Maybe I should throw on a different shirt or comb my hair. Put on a hat. Yeah. Well, Matt gets through it with a hoodie and shorts anyway, so I can get through it with my Moab, Utah shirt on back from my honeymoon.

And, guys, I do want to thank you for coming to the wedding. I'm not going to spend the whole day. and the whole show on the wedding, but you guys really made it a special day, and especially you, Ryan, with the prayer. I thought that was really nice. Well, I know you talked about it on the pre-show. We've not really talked to it with you on the KSR,

so I think we should talk about it. It was an awesome day. The fact that the rain held off, made it a beautiful setting up there on the cliff top there on Lockridge Park. It was awesome. So I was honored when you asked me to do the prayer, you and Marissa. I really was, so I wanted to take it serious. But I had to throw in some zingers, man.

You really took some shots. I did. You did. Mark Pope caught astray. Mark Pope caught astray. It was a beautiful wedding. She was a beautiful bride. It was a beautiful day.

You even had more in the chamber that you just didn't get to. Yeah, I had two more jokes that I just kind of forgot to even say. Well, you're going to do him now? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Let's let me do one. This is a workshop from here.

Let's hope Billy understands his oath now of love, honor, and obey, unlike the camel that doesn't know how to obey yet. Okay. It would have been something like that. Yeah. Might be good to leave that. Yeah. I was nervous when that thing would not sit down for a good four to five minutes. But she played it off well.

What did you think was going to be the end result? Did you think she was going to have to fall off of it, jump off of it? Were you going to go help her? Were you going to get a ladder? What did you think was going to happen there? Well, apparently, I was miced up. I had forgot about this. So I just started talking while it was happening.

Like, do I need to go over there? Do I need to go over there? The Billy Confidence took over. You need me to go help her? I thought she was going to have to jump and I was just going to catch her before she hit the ground. How romantic that was. How romantic that would have been, huh? And that plan would have backfired as soon as I got up there to see how tall that camel was.

I mean, that thing was huge. But what if you dropped her, though, man? It could be a disaster. Now we're talking about, like, front page of the New York Post. Like, now the video's going viral. This is... Can I tell you anything big story? Groom breaks his leg trying to catch bride jumping from a camel.

Exactly, exactly. A couple other things. Did the mentalists come to your table? Oh, yes. He did. Matt and the mentalists weren't on the same page. I don't think they were getting along. No, he tried, he pointed to Matt and said, I'm supposed to do you, the guy with the hat, Matt's like, no, no, no, I'm not doing this.

You guys like, yeah, let me do it. They're like, no, like, they got a little testy there. Like, no, I'm not going to do this. Well, I'm skeptical on those guys after O's got debunked by Pablo Torre the other day, but he did it to me and read my mind. So did he end up doing it to you, Ryan, or did you just get the-the-card trick where, like he can read the card that you pick out or the card of your thinking or whatever. That's what kind of blows my mind. And again, like he's looking at Mario like, okay, is it a high number or a low number? And by his facial reaction, he can figure out what your card is.

I'm less impressed by that trick after watching an eight-minute YouTube video last night on how they actually do it. Oh, you went down to the rabbit? Yeah, because I started thinking about that. And I saw this video of how they can figure out any card that you take from a deck. And I was like, oh, it's way to, it's too obvious. Well, he was reading facial expressions. That's how he got me on the trick. But he also got the wife on like just write any word down.

And he was able to correctly predict the word wait. That's impressive. Yeah. So I had no idea how he did that. So maybe there is still some magic left in this universe. But nevertheless. He did that trick on one of our eye hard people and he messed up. He was like, sorry, I got that wrong.

Oops. Is that not the worst place to be if you're a mentalist or magician and get something wrong like that? It was pretty awkward. How do you recover for something like that? At least he wasn't on stage. At least only the small group saw him screw that up. That's right. You can just kind of bow your head and kind of walk to the next table.

Okay, you got me on that one. I'll get you on the next one, though. But the more popular maybe talking point of the wedding has been the Etsy Witch. And shout out to Etsy Witches, how there was no rain on the actual wedding day after Marissa spent $16 for a witch to bless the day. Best $16 she's ever spent was that one right there. Well, but tell them about the other things. Now, there is more to the story than that was presented on KSR. Now, over Friday and Saturday, two of Marissa's family members had to go to the hospital.

Her grandpa got overheated, had like a blood sugar issue. We had to call an ambulance to Lockridge Park to get him to the hospital. During the ceremony? This is the rehearsal the night before. And then during the ceremony, one of Marissa's sisters tore a ligament in her knee getting down to Snoop Dog. What? Yes. Yeah, she had to get all the attention.

She got driven to the hospital. but that is two family members from Marissa's side that had to go to the hospital. And I think that is the true cost of the Etsy Witch. We all know every spell, every piece of witchcraft comes with a cost. And you found out the negative end of not having rain on your wedding. You sent two people to the hospital. Their blood is on your hand for $16 U.S. dollars on the Internet. I asked her if she would do it again.

She said yes. They just had to take one for the team. But now Shannon is blaming his car troubles on the Etsy Witch. What happened this morning? I woke up this morning and my car started shaking and I'm going, that can't be good. And I drive down the road two or three miles and then all of a sudden the check engine light comes on. And then it starts blinking and then the Jeep starts smoking. And I'm going, all right, I can't drive this to work.

So I had to get a ride into work this morning. So I think that maybe I'm getting the effects of it for making fun of the Etsy witch. But I thought, you know, maybe we can use this to her advantage if we call her up again, Billy. Does she have a hotline or email? address or how do we get hold of the Etsy witch? I'm not sure. It's probably Etsy is going to reach out. Okay. So you're going to end. 100 Etsy Witch.

Because I was thinking maybe we could, you know, work some of our magic and, you know, curse the other team that we're playing in football, like Alabama in week two, we can call the Etsy Witch and see if maybe we can get a win, and if so, we're giving her all the credit. But Shannon, at what cost? I mean, does Kenny Minchie go down in the game versus Alabama? You get the win, but you get a serious injury to your team? I can control that. I don't know.

I don't know. I just want the win. I know. I know. it's tough. I mean, the basketball team had Annabelle. Yeah. Right. We know what happened there. The handler died right after his appearance. Matt laughed at Annabelle. We had a, who was? A player

go down with an injury that night. Was it Jalen Lowe? I think it was Jalen Lowe that night. Yeah. Don't mess around with that stuff. I mean, you laughing on Wednesday of the SEC tournament. You designed a whole offense for a left-handed point guard and then goes down because of the disrespect to Annabelle at Rayneville. So like, I don't know if you

want to open that Pandora's box. We certainly did for the wedding, but for Kentucky's maybe you just leave it out there on the field. Can we call the Switch? I'm sure you have contact info. We have contact info. I don't know if there's a phone number. I'm going to look her up right now. There is like an email. I feel like if I Google Etsy Witch, I'm going to get some kind of results.

Well, my algorithm picked it up because I had people, you know, there were some TikTok videos of people doing the same thing. And, you know, I guess it's not 100%. I got one on discount. It works if it works. For $12 and $5 right here. Oh, there you go. With the $12. $4.4.4.2 stars out of five.

Is it like a plane ticket? You want to pay a little bit more for an Etsy witch? Yeah, you don't want to go too cheap on that. Or you end up with people tearing their ACLs to snoop dogs. She's the Allegiant. She's the Allegiant Edsy witch. She's the Allegiant Etsy witch. It rained on my wedding day.

I would have happily paid some devil $16 to make the sun come out. See, you're reading my mind. Yeah. I had to go to Plan 3, Plan C. And finally, I do need to defend my athletic accomplishments that the person that ordained us. I mean, you weren't the star quarterback The best basketball player and a single-digit golfer when you were like

three years old. You fed him those lines. Don't know. This was all the perception of my uncle, who was the one that was ordaining us. Now, those accomplishments stopped around middle school. I decided not to grow. It didn't really grow to my senior year of high school. You picked at age 10.

I may have, but I did play quarterback and was a pretty good baseball player. But that was not fed lines. Star. Not play. I did not tell him to say. that, even though my eyebrow raised as much as yours did, Drew. Through 75 touchdowns in a 10-game season. You're amazing.

Look, it's different in Flag. Okay? Nobody threatened to tackle you and break your neck. It's a little different. You got a little bit more freedom. But it didn't mean a lot that you guys were there. Despite Shannon and Ryan not getting on the dance floor, it was a really good time. I mean, Mario and Drew, we were all rapping Little Wayne lyrics.

We didn't miss a line. I was keeping my eyes on you all. You got every single line of Go DJ. Very impressed. Yeah, and Abby, too. Yeah. Oh, Abby. Abby. She's got Lollipop, word for word on the ride back home. That was amazing. We wrap around the house occasionally. We keep it hip-hop.

I do want to say Billy and Shannon missed maybe the most, one of the more memorable parts of your wedding was the van trip there and back with the guys. I would love for you guys to have been there because it's kind of a good bonding moment for all of us. Right. We see each other every day. Sometimes we spend more time with each other's than we do our actual family, right? But to hang out in a setting like that, I'm sure it was awesome. It was.

Yeah, kind of away from the studio. and kind of just be there as buddies. It was really nice. But congratulations. So happy for you guys. Marissa was stunning. She was absolutely beautiful. She looked awesome.

She looked like a Disney princess up on the camel when she wrote in. The problem was the dress was over the camel's tail. And that's why it would not sit down. They didn't do that in rehearsal. Got a little spooked. So that was the reason for that. But now everybody kind of understands the brown and all the high maintenance part of it. It's been on ESPN radio twice now.

So everybody knows at this point. Wedding of the summer. That's right. There is some Kentucky sports that we'll get to today. But after this wedding, guys, I am definitely counting my pennies, pinching my pennies, you could say. I'm trying to save a little bit of money after overspending a little bit on the wedding. So how do you have any money? I know how that goes. Well, at least $20 week paychecks. I've been saving up for a while, but now they're all gone after this wedding and the honeymoon that I just went on. So I do want to ask people today to call in 859-280 and 2287 to give some money-saving tips, some creative ways that you. You have been cheap in the past. I'm sure everybody kind of goes through this in college where you eat only ramen noodles and bagel bites, Ryan.

Oh, yes. But what are some ways as somebody that's worked in television that you kind of were able to save money to get to where you are now? I got some great tips for you. Please lay them on me. You need them all? I need them all. Well, when we were in college, of course, you had no money whatsoever. We would go to like the Jerry's restaurant in Owensboro and take their salt and pepper shakers, take their napkin holder,

go in the bathroom and take. Why do you need a napkin holder? You need napkins. Yeah, you don't need a napkin holder. You're just stealing the steel at that point. It was like, oh, we need a napkin holder. You're going and you're taking all the toilet paper out of the stalls and the bathrooms. Well, hold on.

You're taking the TP too? Forks. You know, I've been taking forks my whole life. Ryan's like, KS bar would still be open. Ryan's like, here's how you can save a lot of money, Billy. Go rob a bank. He's telling you. You don't have a hot wire a car, Billy.

You can sell your car and just go steal vehicles. I don't know if I like that. You know, I've brought home the Joe's Crab Shack because it says stolen from Joe's Crab Shack. I think I'd stole that one. I think I had to. I don't know if I condone that. You're looking for tips that don't involve criminal activity, right?

Correct, yes. Well, not in my adult life. I'm a big couponer. Like, you know, the coupons that come in the mail. Oh, I go through the value pack and pick out the... There's always one in their... You do not coupons. Oh, yeah.

I've seen these people, man. They will go... They'll go to a grocery store with a stock of coupons and by the end of the thing, like the grocery store owes them money. That's how much you get the value pack in the mail? No. They've always got one in there for El Marriachi every time.

Who would have thought? Ryan's going to Kroger with a stack of coupons. Yes, yeah. So like more than one you will bring to the store. Oh, yeah. Kroger sends you like about 20 a month. And they kind of monitor what you buy. So the coupons they send you is like stuff that I need because that's what I buy.

They got you hooked on that Kroger Plus. Yes, no doubt. Well, that's funny because I do definitely. have a much tighter budget when I go to Kroger now. So maybe I include some coupons. Get some coupons. Drew, do you have any other advice besides stealing for saving money? Well, do you have a napkin holder? Because you need to get a napkin holder. Not really. You got to go to Jeremy and Frederica and Owensboro. Don't think I have one. It's close. You know, times are tough these days for anyone at the grocery. I do a lot of buying in bulk

and then like meal prepping a lot. Yeah. So definitely don't be eating out. You know, as Dave Ramsey says, you shouldn't see the inside of a restaurant unless you're working in it right now. But I would just, like Sunday, I went to Costco, I bought like 10 pounds of chicken. And I just, I'm meal prepping and have all that ready to go. So I would focus on eating at home and buying in bulk for things. Leftovers over restaurants, right? Not going to the vine, even though I want to hear about your birthday last night here in a second. I'll be glad to brag on the vine.

He has a nice new knife from the vine at all. Yeah. And a candle. Great steak knives at the vine. They had the little V logo on it. So now in my kitchen. Happy birthday, right. Golf has definitely got to take a step back.

It's not a cheap sport. No, it's not. No, just get used to be at home. Expensive hobby. I don't know what apps you're subscribed to on TV, maybe cut back a few of those. Don't need Disney Plus anymore. The rabbit ear antennas, you could go back to that. Now, do you think I could sell any garbage from my wedding online?

Do you think anybody would buy that? I tried air and garbage. What in high demand? Nobody really. You could sell plasma. Ron and I have both gone through our plasma. I've heard about that. Yeah.

That's helped a lot of people in time. You know, when money was tight for me last year, I door dashed for several months. That's right. That's good money right there. That's right. I don't know if I'm ready to door dash though yet. It was fun about it. Actually, I really enjoyed it.

It was fun for me. See, I thought about being an Uber driver at night. I feel like I'd be a fun Uber driver. See, I might put some lights in there. Like a 2 a.m. Like some free candy. Yeah, we'll just goof off. Heck, I'd end up hanging out with them going in and...

I had a couple drinks. My car would stay. But yeah, I feel like I could be a fun Uber driver. Maybe DoorDash. You get some good. tips too if you were a fun Uber driver. Yeah, because I've been the person in the backseat. You get excited when you have a fun driver.

When you just have the person sitting there, maybe they're FaceTime and their wife just talking, not even involving you. I like the people that are like, hey, you need, how about a jolly rancher? Here's the ox cord. You know, that could be us. So pick up a second job or steal silverware and napkin holders from restaurants. From Jerry's on Frederica that's now closed, yes. And meal prep. In meal prep, that's right.

Well, I'd love to hear some money saving tips if you want to call on today, 859-2802-287. have some news regarding the new assistant GM of Kentucky football. I do want to play the Facebook marketplace game that Matt's been playing the last couple days because I found some stuff locally. Cool. You shop it on there now? You might have to part of your savings. You're right, Drew. You might want to sell some stuff. Clean out your garage you're always complaining about. Put that on marketplace. Yeah, we tried the yard sale. Didn't make as much money as we thought. Had to give away some stuff that we overpriced. So we are looking for any tips this morning. But happy to be filling in for Matt on this Wednesday edition of Kentucky Sports

Radio. We'll be right back. Behind every night spent making the kids' lunches, there's a lot of suspense. Will they finally eat the veggies? Will the pesto survive the first bite? Will the lunchbox come home empty, half full, or come home at all? And will you finish episode eight before you're done slicing the cucumbers?

I could smell it walking on the hallway, to be honest with you.

I was like, is that weed? Nope, it's fragile masculinity. Ben Stiller, no. Because a lot of times out of context, people don't get it or even know it's a circle. is. You know what I mean? They're like, oh, what's the state? Everyone's so dumb except for you. And fake. Right.

How's that going? Take the mic for a second. What's up? What up, Mario? How's training going? Training's going well. I'm slowly, like, progressing. Like, I like to ease my way into it.

He's starting to find it again, like riding a bike? Yeah, yeah. I'm starting to find it again. Jump shots, it's getting a little crispy. Now, are you worried about our team with Stephen Peek going down? I like our depth. I like our team. We got Peek.

We got Jack Pilgrim. Drew's going to come off the bench. Drew's coming off the bench my ass, coach. Drew's coming off the bench. Drew starting at the four. We got Ryan's going to, Ryan, what are you planning on? I'm going to hold the clipboard. Ryan's going to come in there and give us some good minutes.

I'm setting the tone early with an elbow. You all need me out there. Yeah, you're going to be the enforcer. I've been sharpening these. been running and I haven't held a basketball in two decades, but I'm sharpening these elbows. Well, despite being a three sports star, you saw my half court shot in Madisonville a few months ago. Not great. So if you need me in a suit, maybe some slick back hair on the sideline, I can play the Pat Riley roll if you'd want. You're playing. I don't know if you want me out there,

no, you're playing, man. I could see you six men, maybe six men. How did Billy get out of this? He's one of the youngest. They got me out there. I can barely walk these days. Ryan just turned 60. How are we the ones that's playing in Billy and Shannon are, Ryan? And Matt, Matt, Matt's doing radio now. Matt's going to be the head coach. I'm the assistant coach, but you're playing, Drew. I'm not running from it, but I feel like you all are ducking the smoke here. Yeah, I need to work on some cardio if we're going to be doing this.

Me too. You'll be better than me. We need to hit the treadmill. See, my problem would be hitting some baskets. Like, I can get up and down the floor, but I don't know that you're going to get much out of me from shooting. And I'm still trying to, I'm waiting to hear from Richie. I'm waiting to hear from Wu. I mean, we can put Wu in the middle, and who's going to stop that? Just throw it to Wu.

Right? That's right. Keith Farmer's not going to see what's coming. No, is Keith Farmer going to stop Wu? No, Wu would dunk on his noggin. That's exactly right. Now, a lot of people are not really happy that we're mocking witches and voodoo.

I'm not mocking anybody. Yeah, we've got to be careful. They're a little worried about the... We're not mocking her. We're actually giving her a lot of credit. Yeah, we're giving her credit for the good weather. I thought we were mocking Billy, not the witch. Okay, well, some people are worried about this top of a conversation.

Nora Sage is the name. of the witch if you'd like your sister. Oh, you just put it out there. Now, she's about to blow up now. I'm running to that website. She can say thank you. We need to get her on the show, I think. See, I don't know about that.

Oh, she looks AI. That's a little much. Oh, you think she's AI. You paid some dude overseas that just made up this fake woman. Some guys sitting in his basement with your $60. But it worked. Well, that makes it even more impressive that we had no rain on that day. We got some people on the line before we get to those.

I want to hold on to them before our heartbreak here. I'm sorry. It says here, good weather curse. $16.50. It was $30. You get 45% off now with free shipping. Oh, there you go. She's going to ship the weather.

See, you got to use the coupons. Not getting a lot of hits at $30. But down to 16. And you start to see some traffic. Ryan, how was your birthday dinner last night? It was awesome. We went to V at the Vine right across the street here. We did a show there a couple months ago.

It was awesome. I mean, we sat outside in the patio. The sunset was my. behind us, Josiah, Gavin, and Jennifer and I all went. It was, it was perfect. We said this when we were there for the show. You get the feeling like you're not in Lexington. Like, we're on your own vacation. This is not Lexington, but it's beautiful up there. All the different courses that they bring in. Yes. And celebrating the Big Six-O, hopefully you had a good day yesterday. Had a great day, yes. Good.

You feeling it today? Yesterday you were feeling that number six digit. You still feeling it a little I definitely feel it. And I tell you, when my mom and dad called yesterday morning and my dad says, he was a good boy. I mean, that got me. I mean, that's when the tears just started coming out. My dad still talking to me like I'm a 10-year-old kid. He was a good boy.

He's just rubbing your head. He's a good boy. So you were the best athlete he coached, as we've heard many a time, that you love playing for your dad. That goes without saying, yeah. That's right. You know, some of the best years of my life when I got to play for my dad, I was his point guard for three years. We didn't win a ton of games, but, man, I wouldn't turn.

trade that for anything in my life. It was awesome. And you thought you were going to be the next what? Isaiah Thomas. I mean, Indiana Hoosiers when I grew up. I grew up in Indiana. I was going to be Isaiah Thomas. Didn't quite work out that way. So then I switched to Kyle Macy. Didn't switch didn't work out that way either. So if I can't

play the game I love, I got to talk about it. So that's why I went into sports broadcasting. Well, you do have a game you can play coming up of media madness. The dream is not dead. That's right. Well, you know, I got this bad hammy. I got that football injury, the knee, the trick knee. What else? What was Richie And Richie had every injury known to man we were talking to him about it.

Planner fasciitis, torn meniscus, hang-nale. You name it, he had it. But he said he could still shoot, though. Yeah, he could still shoot, though. We just put them in one corner, get the ball to them, let him shoot. Yeah, just shoots. They're in shoot, Richard. Well, Ryan, you're the true two-three sports star as you went on to Kentucky Wesleyan

and became a stolen-based champion, right? Well, you know, the record will never be broken, really. I mean, he did. He got beaten by a 91-year-old in a race. Did you not see that on Friday? Ninety-one-year-old smoked men. in our eyes. He's fast. I have like a cheat out there.

All right, we'll take a break, take some calls on the other side of this, and we'll keep it rolling here on a Wednesday of Kentucky Sports Radio. 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. Billy Rutledge filling in for Matt today with the guys, and we've got some callers we want to get to on the phone line, 8-559-280-2-287. Before we do that, do want to shout out my little brother Brady. You guys met him at the

wedding, actually. His mini-me looks just like you. Yeah, I get that all the time. And with my dad, too, I guess we all look the same. But he is a freshman at UK starting this fall. He moved in this week. He's supposed to move in today. Okay. He had to push that back due to emergency appendicitis surgery. Oh, a couple of days ago. lingering from. That was my first thought, Drew, is that my cost after the family members on her side went down? Am I to blame? Just getting started. Is Marissa to blame for our family member going down?

Oh, now you're blaming Marissa. Yeah, well, this is not Marissa's fault, is it? It's a we now. You're married. Well, I guess you're right. Her problems are your problems. That's how it goes. Let Rod and not, as the two that have been married and married, it's rarely her fault. Just remember that.

Matter of fact, it's never her fault. It could be 100% her fault and it's not her fault. And I've heard if I'm right, that usually means like I'm wrong anyway, right? Oh, you're never right. Listen, you get to wear the pants in the family when you do the laundry. That's an old joke. Okay. That's an old joke.

I'll do laundry. So that me not going to wear pants? That's the only time you get to wear the pants in the family is when you do the laundry. Did you steal those pants from Jerry's? Well, no, but I would have if they were there during those days. Okay. All right. Well, sorry to my brother Brady.

I am too. that's awesome. I'm up here. I'm excited about starting there. In the fall. He'll be inviting me to all the parties, I'm sure. I'll have my wedding ring on

for those parties. Don't worry still. Don't get in trouble when they bust into these parties and you're the 30-year-old there. I didn't notice. It was like old school. You're like Will Ferrell and old school.

I did notice that your brother's girlfriend caught the bouquet. Not only that, she was the witness to the marriage certificate. In a matter of an hour, I think she became a part of the family. I believe so. Honestly. But best luck to him as he starts his journey with UK this week.

859-280-2287. Got some people on the line, dude. Who do we want to start here? Isaiah. What's up, Isaiah? Hey, guys, I got two questions, mainly for Billy. So did you tell the rest of the guys that you were going to pick up a hitchhiker? I haven't. That was a cover zero only story so far. Okay, well, a good thing it wasn't a kid. I don't even think you would have gave him a consideration. And my second thing was you said you were a heavy sleeper. I'm curious, how many alarms that each of you guys set and which one do you wake up to?

That's kind of an ask anything question, but it kind of was on my mind. So I'm curious. Yeah, thank you, Isaiah. I am very much so every five minutes for like three alarms. Like 7, 705, 710. I'm usually up by the 710 one. But I've got to snooze a little bit, even though it's not. good for you. Let me hear your alarm, Billy. I want to hear it. Pull it up on your phone.

We need to hear the alarm that Billy wakes up to every morning. All right. Let's see. I think we should all do that. Everybody get your alarm. We want to hear what everybody wakes up to you. For me, I've had it set for so long. I don't know what the noise is called, but I mean, I can set one here. Yeah. We'll set one here in a second. You can't just go to it and just pull it up. Yeah, here's mine. Yeah. Oh, it's that one. That's the same one I have. See, I've got that one for my stopwatch. It gets me ready to start the day. Wait, what is that one, Ryan? Why did it stop there?

There you go. Stopped on me. That sounded like twinkle, twinkle little stars or something. That's what my kind of sounds like, because I don't want anything jarring. I wake up easily. So I want the one that kind of fades in and goes up like the longer it goes, the louder it gets. So I'm two seconds into my alarm. It shut off.

That's mine. That sounds like a nursery. But it's perfect. You wake up in a nice, not can't turn it off. That would put me deeper asleep. Run. You wake up in a beautiful mood, beautiful day. It's just beautiful.

That would not wake me up. I used to have my radio turn on, and I would get like the morning radio DJ and whatever song that they did. That didn't work for a while. I had a roommate that had the warhead going off. You've heard that alarm before. That is annoying. That is the absolute word. That scares you.

Then you wake up, kind of jolt it up. You want to kind of nice, easy wake up, go on the show. shower, listen to Billy and Shannon on the pre-show. It's a perfect way to wake up. Learn about the presidential election. Your sounds like it should be clipped onto a crib, but like the rotating dolls on it? That's why he goes back to bed because he puts him back to bed. It doesn't wake him up. No wonder you're so tired in the mornings.

So it was good for my afternoon nap. Did you find yours? Did you find yours? No, it was the same as Drew's, so I just ended up playing. Here's mine. Let me give you mine real quick here. Hold on. It gets going here in a second. You got to give it a second. here it comes starts out slow yeah here it comes

on it's about to kick in it comes the chorus it feels like the beginning of a movie it is kind of beautiful it's like that much more than the nursery

crin see shan and I've got the kind of the same easy but that wakes me up I don't want to be jarred with heavy metal like I don't want

I don't want Pantera blasting the bomb noises now do you think we should get yeah yeah I hate that one do we think we should get Ryan the alarm clock

that runs away from you have you seen me I was going to bring this up. I don't have one. I don't have a problem getting up. But if I did, I would want the alarm that they have some that you have to, like, solve a quick puzzle. Or the ones that make you get up and walk across the room to hit a button. I don't have that, but I like the idea of it.

Ryan, I think that's what we need to get you. I don't have any problem, though. I don't need that. I got my little soft sign, homecoming noise. But, you know, Matt never even wakes up for an alarm. He wakes up like 10 minutes before his alarm goes off every morning. Like, remember he has said he can't remember the last time in a lot. alarm woke him up because his brain, for whatever reason, wakes him up like 10 minutes before

his alarm is supposed to go off. Well, that's, that's, I'm glad that works for him. Yeah. I am definitely a snoozer. And I think it will be for a while. Let's take another call here. Shannon, who's up next? Evelyn.

Hey, Evelyn. Really, you're the worst because you don't like kids. I'm mad at you because he excluded us from the fantasy football league after Matt enthusiastically encouraged us to write in. It stinks worse than not getting in because I didn't even get a chance. Drew, I can't believe you didn't stick up for kids because you're a dad now. Oh, my. Keep going.

Anything else, Evelyn? No. How old is Evelyn? Everyone, I'll remind you, Billy did this. Yeah. I'm a 13. You're 13. Okay.

Yeah, I feel like 13. Come on, Billy. Yeah, you're not really a child. Yeah. A 13 is a little young. You're a teenager. You're not a kid. Fantasy Football League.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, Evelyn. I think we should reinstate Ellen. Come on, let Evelyn in. Yeah, Evan, I can't believe Billy did this to you. Yeah, why would you do that, Billy's the one. We would never do that to you, Ellen.

I would let Evelyn in. Billy's the one that did it. I would say Evelyn gets first pick. What fantasy football league is she even talking about? Evelyn, I appreciate you listening, listening to cover Zero as well. New episode just dropped. New episode just dropped if you want to listen to that. I listen to it.

I already listened to it. Thank you so much. She's a big guy. Thank you. Big fan. Already listened to the new episode. And please call the pre-show anytime. We'd love to have you on that show.

I would. Billy doesn't want you, but I do. I want you to call. Was that the call of the day? I think it was. Whiskey thief call today. We're going to give that away already? Can we give a whiskey thief call the day away to a 13-year-old?

I want Evelyn to call the UK basketball post-game shows, too. You enjoy those. Thank you, Evelyn. Any parting words for Billy before I let you go? Billy is the worst. new drop new drop right there all right well thanks evelyn i'll take that on the chin and keep on moving

look we're going to a sports bar it's going to be a whole big thing grown men we don't don't need a 13 year old in the league that's your decision that's my decision 100% billy decision and then when they call into the post game show hi what's wrong with that who doesn't like the sound of players oscar sheewe it's children's happiness after a kentucky basketball win down. All it's missing is a rainbow.

Give me a break. Before you got around here, I did the postgame show one time, and I had like eight kids in a row call and say something dirty and nasty. Like eight. What? Yeah. Eight calls in a row. They were pranking you.

Yes, they definitely prank me. Why wouldn't you understand they were pranking you after, oh, I don't know, two or three calls? I did. We were like, we did. We were like, I'll stand by. Okay, Mario's next. Mario. So they started talking.

They snuck it in real quick. This is a postgame show? Yes. Dirty and nasty. Yeah. I'll tell you during the break what they said. I can't say it on it. I can't repeat it.

That's why we don't want kids on the post game show. Makes me worried. What's going on in that big brain over there? I can't say that. Yes. Well, Evelyn, putting me in my place there, we did release the cover Zero Fantasy Football League. So if you haven't listened to that, check that out this morning. We'll take one more call here in this segment.

Ryan is up next. What's up, Ryan? Hey, am I on the air? You're on the air, buddy. What's up? Listen, I need to be talked off the ledge about the city of Louisville. It sucks. It's not great.

I don't understand the zoning of it. There's like an adult store or a block from the children's hospital. He's brought up a lot of weird questions. And it's just, I don't like it. There's a lot of homeless people. There's people sleeping on the sidewalk in front of the hospital. It's just, it's not great. tell me what I'm missing here. I want to like our biggest city, but I just can't right now.

Well, I would argue the food in Louisville is fantastic. You can get a lot of different cuisines if you're a foodie and you're looking for a new place. I think every big city deals with some sort of homeless problem. Is there something that's changed in the last couple of years that's made you change your opinion on this? well we've had to go up there a lot lately just due to an issue and i i've just i've been to almost every major city in the united states and that's not an exaggeration and it is horrible up there right now i mean it is and and it's like there's not doing anything about it like we've been going up there for weeks and there's this there's people that have just been in the same spot for weeks and nothing changes and it's like it's it's kind of scary to walk i i want to like it I don't want to hate our biggest city, but I'm struggling right now, and I just need somebody to help me to like it better. Okay.

I appreciate you calling in. Guys, what do we think? Does the city of Louisville suck? We know their athletics do, but the city itself. Yeah, their athletics definitely suck among the worst in the country. The city, and I understand the problem he's mentioned, and I'm not there very much, but my understanding is it's gotten much better, like a lot better. I know it was real bad a few years ago, but everything I hear from people that live in Louisville and frequent downtown is. how it's been on its way up for a while on improving.

So that's all I can add to that because I'm not actually there walking those streets. Yeah, I mean, Shannon may be able to answer this question better than we can. But, you know, with the Yom Center downtown, they've really done a lot to revitalize the downtown, especially since the riots and things that were downtown. I think it's, in my opinion is it's improved. I think it's a lot better. I wouldn't be afraid to walk down the streets right now in this area. Now, are there neighborhoods that I wouldn't want to walk through and down the streets at night?

Well, yeah, but I could probably say that about most big cities. True. You know? I mean, if you've been out to Seattle or New York City or you say you've been to major cities, they're all dealing with the same issues, but on a bigger scale than Louisville. So I don't think it's that bad. I've lived in Lexington since 2019, so I can't entirely speak on the topic. But Shannon, I think one of the biggest changes has been 4th Street, right? I mean, that is completely different than what it used to be when it comes to the party atmosphere. Oh, yeah, yeah. And that's where we're at right here. I mean, that's where I'm at right now. Right. And it's all just, you know, it used to be clubs and bars and now it's all restaurants. It's a lot more family-friendly than it was 10 or 15 years ago, for sure. Well, 859-2802287. A couple lines open or a couple lines open. If you'd like to join the show, I will spend the rest of the five segments trying to recover from Evelyn's call.

She slapped you around a little bit. She really did. Just slap me in the face. Burn. Yeah. Burn. Here on Kentucky Sports Radio. We'll take a break and be right back. Behind every night spent making the kids' lunches, there's a lot of suspense. Will they finally eat the veggies? Will the pasto survive the first bite?

Will the lunchbox come home empty, half full, or come home at all? And will you finish episode 8 before you're done slicing the cucumbers?

I can wait four hours for the next bus or this random dude is offering me a ride on his motorcycle.

I chose option B. I'm Julie Pinero, and I travel by myself because it's a rare space where I can say yes without asking anyone else first. I'm on a mission to reclaim the word Solita, trading the pity for possibility. Every time I tried to be alone, I kept meeting people, and they were like, you smiled at us. Not a lot of people smile around here. It's when you're alone that you're most receptive to the world as it is and not the lies you're sold about it. It can be a time where you push your limits, change your mind, or wake up to a new version of yourself. So whether you're a solo travel veteran or you're too nervous to book your first trip, I hope you listen to Solita on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or

wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, this is Hayes Davenport. And Sean Clements. We host the podcast Hollywood Handbook on the Big Money Players Network. Our show is extremely accessible to first-time listeners. Each week, we talk to someone in show business,

aka The Biz, and try to help them with their careers and see what they have to offer us. Everyone has a good time, and no one gets mad at their publicists for letting them do our show. We've had a lot of great guests like Sarah Sherman.

Not that great. Actually, can you help me shape this? How about we flip it on his head? How about we flip this script? What is the surprise woman who actually you think is the straight man is actually the one who's acting weird? Adam Scott, this entire time you've been expecting Adam Sandler to come to visit the show. I would never expect. I would never set expectations for something like that to happen.

If the universe allows for something like that to happen. I am open to it. I'm always going to accept. You know, Danny McBride, fine. Yeah, it's all this fragile masculinity exuding. I could smell it walking down the hallway, to be honest with you. I was like, is that weed? Nope, it's fragile masculinity.

Ben Stiller, no. Because a lot of times, out of context, people don't get it or even know what a circle is. You know what I mean? They're like, oh, what's a state. Everyone's so dumb. And fake. Right. ain't fake and also not interested or just like, oh, I've got my life.

I don't care about your life. And a lot of other big shots that wouldn't be where they are without us. Oh, and by the way, Will Ferrell told us personally he loves the show and he wants to be a guest on every episode, but he's just so busy. Listen to Hollywood Handbook on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Nick Tuturo. You probably know me from NYPD Blue, the longest yard, or Spike Lease Black Landsman.

But I'm also from Queens, which means I know. No pizza. And on my new podcast, delivering happiness with Nick Totoro, I deliver pizza from Prince Street pizza to a new guest. Are you delivering pizza now? Then we sit down for a real conversation. I've shared a slice with everyone from Seth Rollins. What are you doing? My belt. To Alex Rodriguez.

Just to let you people know, we're talking to one of the goats here. To Bill Burr. I don't think I've ever met somebody so exactly out of their mind as I am. And now, we even have more great guests coming up, including the great John Tutu. It's called happiness. Delivering happiness. Mariano Rivera. Oh, my God.

And many, many more. Open your free high, hard radio app. Search Delivering Happiness with Nick Detourl. And listen now. Welcome back. Evelyn is definitely one of those cool kids that I hope calls into the pre-show one of these days. And the post-game show. Don't forget to call the post-game show, Evelyn.

Post-game show is a little different. Shannon, tell us about one of the sponsors here we have on KSO. Yeah, Billy. You need a kickback with cornbread's organic social spritz. They're a functional beverage made with aptogens and new tropics for a light lift without hemp or alcohol. It comes in four refreshing flavors, and it is a delicious way to relax. With only 30 calories and no hangover, you can find them at liquor barn, total wine,

Go to cornbread hemp.com slash action to make your voice heard at cornbread hemp grown for the good life. We are 17 days away from Kentucky football's first game versus Youngstown State. And not a lot of sports news today, but if you said there is a main story, it would be Pete Thammel is reporting that Kentucky is set to hire Alex Brown as its new assistant GM for the football program. He has a longtime college staffer. He's been at Old Miss, SMU, Rice, and Houston was also for a scout for the Falcons last year.

With Pat Beondo stepping down and Pete Nocta filling his spot, Kentucky football, has a new assistant GM. Any takeaways from this news this morning, Drew? I'll admit, didn't know anything about him before that broke. I was working for the Shriner's Bowl, had just the Shron Bowl. It had just been here. He was in Lexington and Louisville, a few other places fairly recently. A big takeaway is just how quick they were to fill it.

I don't know if Will Stein had this guy in mind before, but it did not take long after moving knocked over to fill that position. So it seems he went out and worked quickly before the season, and I assume got someone he really wanted. But I like that he has SEC experience at Ole Miss. Right. And it has worked in different roles, even in the NFL for a little bit. Definitely different minds that maybe what Mark Pope has, Ryan, where we felt like we were screaming.

Why aren't you hiring a GM? It did eventually hire Keegan Brown, but not in the official GM role, kind of a different role there. So the football team has a GM. That's right. Football team now has an assistant GM. Basketball? Well, they have like a director of roster management. We have a dorm.

Yeah. Very interesting. very, very interesting. Interesting. Interesting? Anything more there? I think I'm making my point. Well, the fact that Jay Bat seems to want the GM and Mark Pope kind of disregarded that in that recent

interview, I think that that's interesting. I think if I'm Mark Pope, I'm going to say, hey, let's go along with what. And this guy seems to like go along with Will Stein what they think about their roster development. I think that's one of me one reason they got him. He's, you know, he's been a scout. He's been involved all the place like, but they're so, it's so important about this. roster development angle now you have to take advantage of. I think maybe that's what this guy was

hired. Well, yeah, and to that point, I gave the stat on the pre-show, there are seven college football rosters this year that will exceed $40 million in NIL spending. And I can't assume that Will Stein is going to be the best at being a businessman. He's been hired to be a head coach, right? He's going to call plays. That doesn't necessarily mean he's a savant when it comes to math and making a roster work. So it just seems like, it seems pretty natural that you delegate to people to do that job. And having two is better than having one, right? So it seems it makes sense to me. Yeah, and I like that he's been at several different levels. You know, he's working for a college, or was working for a college football, all-star game.

So he's seen the collection talent there. He's been in the SEC with Old Miss. It's at the NFL. Even though he's not a name that's had a high position, that's probably the highest position he's had, he's been in a lot of different top places. Yeah. And like you said, the SEC and Ole Miss, too. So has that experience there. Let's take a call, Shannon. I believe John. has been patiently waiting. What's up, John? All right, Billy. This is kind of all subject, but not really. All right. So, you're newly married. I've been married almost 30 years. You and your wife have gone away for the weekend.

It's your first night there. You all had a great day. You get back to the hotel room. It is 11 o'clock, and she realizes she has not packed her toothbrush. Do you allow her to use your toothbrush? I'll listen off the air. Great newlywed question. That's a great question for a newlywed. I would say yes. And not only that, she has used my toothbrush before. Yes.

Am I missing something here? I mean, this is somebody that I would kiss on a daily basis. Is it gross to share a toothbrush? Once you get old, of course not. You brush the dog's teeth with your toothbrush. You're a line I made. You're a newlywed. You know, I can see the guy and probably people thinking,

man, I'm not there yet. I'm not letting her borrow my toothbrush. Well, we have been together for almost nine years before we tied the knot. So it has, it's nothing new here. True. You know, if Shannon and I were on a trip together and he accidentally used my toothbrush or vice versa, I'd have a real problem with that. Well, it's mine at that point. Like, you're not getting it back, right? You don't want to keep it back at that point. You want to keep using my toothbrush. Yeah, but then I'm done. Like, I'm not using that toothbrush again, but Drew, you're telling me, Abby forgets her toothbrush? She's not going to be brushing her teeth on the trip here? Well, I was going to say to save money, you should only have one toothbrush. There it is.

See? Why are you buying two toothbrushes right now in this economy? You can brush them with your finger. Have you never done that? I did that last week. Last week. Yeah, I was staying somewhere. And my toothbrush fell onto the nasty ass floor. And I was like, oh, just going to use my finger for this one time. Then I went and bought a toothbrush after that. But I just did that. Yeah, I hope you're covering your toothbrushes too. Like I know some people just kind of lay it on the sink. I don't know if you've ever seen how many germs go when you flush a toilet. Ryan, if you have your toothbrush exposed at all, I guarantee if the toilet seat is up, you got a little, you got some germs from the toilet on your toothbrush. Yeah, I know a lot of people

put a little travel compartment over their toothbrush. I just throw mine in. Square thing. He's throwing in there. Ryan doesn't care. Leave it out, leave it in the drawer. Ron Runces is out in the toilet. That's strong immune system. We have germs everywhere. This is Mike I'm talking to is probably filthy. Oh, we aren't cleaning these mics very often. No, we've never cleaned these mics. Yeah, in four years or so. We'll take a break. Hour 2 coming up next here on Kentucky Sports Radio.
