Speaker 1 (00:25):
Billy, good morning to you. How are you? How was
your weekend? Good morning, dude, it was great.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
The fiance was away for the weekend, so it was
kind of like when the you know, cats away the
mice will play. No Coldplay concerts or anything like that.
But it was a nice relaxing weekend and fired up
to be with you this morning.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
Yeah, we'll get into the TVT stuff in just a minute,
but first, you know, we don't have a whole lot
of breaking news on the pre show. Not a whole
lot of news breaks at nine am on a Monday morning,
But I've got a little bit of breaking news on
my own here okay, Billy, And that is the announcement
that coming up on August the eighth, my band, Alice
Blue Gown, will be playing at the Manchester Music Hall

(01:02):
and we're going to be opening up for a band
that you may have heard of called ever Clear. Whoa Yeah,
tickets are on real right now. We are opening Foreverclear
August the eighth, Friday night, so you've got no excuse.
It's going to be the weekend. It's going to be
a lot of fun. We want to try to sell
that place out if we can, so I'm inviting the
entire state of Kentucky and all of Lexington especially to

(01:24):
come out to the Manchester Music Hall and see our
show with Everclear. We're really excited about it. You know,
every now and then we get these cool opportunities that
come along. We were approached on Friday to do this
show with Everclear, and we're like, yeah, let's go, let's
do it. So I'm really excited about it and hopefully
we're going to have a great crowd out there and
really looking forward to it.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
Well hell yeah, man, congratulations, I know that it's got
to make you happy. Obviously, the show at log Still
Distillery when you opened up for a third Eyed Blind
was a lot of fun. And now at another great
venue at the Manchester Music Hall, and boy was this
I mean, come on with a little pinch me moment
here come ever Clear.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Yeah, it's a helmet band.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
It's always cool when you get to open up for
a band who sold you know, multi you know, millions
and millions of albums. I don't know how many albums
exactly they've sold, but they've sold quite a bit, you know.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
They were pretty successful, one.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
Of the big bands of the nineties and they've obviously
I had continued success to be able to still do
this thing thirty years later. I've been to a lot
of shows at the Manchester Music Hall. We've had an
OVW show where too at the Manchester Mean Call, but
I've never actually been up as a performer in a
band on stage at the Manchester Music Hall.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
So I'm looking forward to it. Man, it's gonna be
a lot of fun.

Speaker 3 (02:36):
Well, you get that rider list ready, make sure that
you guys practice some of the new songs, the original
music that you guys have been putting out Bent and
what was the other helios?

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Helios? That's right, that's the single you released first.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
Yeah, you know, we're trying to like crunch all the
time that we have together to be able to practice
and get some new stuff out there. So we're not
just going up and playing covers, you know, because you know,
a lot of a lot of stuff that we do
is cover. We don't just go up there and do covers.
Like this is our chance to open up for a
multi platinum selling band, we want to go up there
and you know, showcase some of our own stuff. So

(03:08):
there's gonna be some intense original music writing going on
over in the next three weeks, and we're gonna see
if we can't get another original song or two put
out there quickly.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
So well don't we can't rush this process. I mean,
you're creative all right.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Man, But some songs you can sit down and you
get you know, it depends, like if you're a musician.
You know, sometimes just like writer's block if you're writing
a book, sometimes you can sit down and boom, you
can write a song in five minutes. Other times you
sit down and you just don't have any ideas and
you're sitting there working on a song for weeks. So
it just depends, you know, if it's one of these
things where like I can come up with something with

(03:44):
the guys and we can put it together and have
it rehearsed and go out and play it.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Then we'll do it. Otherwise we'll just play covers.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
Are you like me where you just write random thoughts
into your notepad or your note page on your iPhone?
Because mine is just filled with my random thoughts. Yeah,
it sounds like yours is more of a deliberate process.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
And yeah, I mean like when I was you know,
I've got a bunch of stuff that I've written, but
it's normally just stuff that I would write for my
own sake, huh, with never the intention of anybody else
ever hearing it.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Some throwaway stuff. Yeah, in your mind. It's kind of
like therapy.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
If you're a musician, if you're having a bad day,
just pick up the guitar, you write down some words
on a piece of paper, and just you know, create
your own music. I think that's a lot of fun
to do that. I used to do it a whole
lot when I first started playing guitar. Haven't done it
a whole lot recently. But you know, when you get
shows like that like this coming up, on August the
eighth at Manchester. It inspires you to, you know, get

(04:42):
back to it a little bit. So we'll see what happens.
See if we can't knock out a couple of more
new songs, and regardless, looking forward to entertaining everybody there
with ever clear.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
Well just put it in my calendar. I'll be there
for you, dude. It's in Lexington, So looking forward to that. Yeah,
So we'll.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
Talk more about that as we lead up to the show.
But let's talk about some basketball. Anytime you get to
talk about basketball in July, Billy, it's fun, right, even
if it's is welumba guys we're talking about But La
Familia won their first game on Friday night, a blowout
one five to fifty two. At one point they went
on a sixteen to two run to in the first quarter,
and I mean the game was all basically within hand

(05:19):
at that point. Archie Goldwin had a big weekend, right,
I mean had nineteen points in this game. And the
elam ending. Uh you know, are you a fan of
the elam ending? Obviously it doesn't really matter when the
game is one, five to fifty two, But when you
have a game like yesterday where it came down to
the end and you know it was seventy you know,

(05:40):
seventy six, seventy six, the ending was seventy nine. That
was the target score and Kentucky's struggling down the stretch
to get there. Are you a fan of this elum
ending where we had Archie goibwin do the you know,
get the end one to end the game?

Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah? I am.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
It creates a sense of urgency and it definitely changes
the game. It felt like Kentucky, you know, was just
jacking up threes there at the end to try to
win the game instead of maybe taking it easy two
or making it easier on themselves. But I mean, you're
right about the statement of but anytime we've got basketball
in July is it's it's a good thing. And I was,
I mean, that was a lot of fun that that
second game was dramatic.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
I mean I was on my feet.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
I saw somebody say I've never cheered more for a
game that has mattered less than that game on Sunday.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Yeah, that's a lot more to them because they're gonna
have a share of a million dollars if they win.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
You know, that's right.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
Yeah, But you know, just it's just fun seeing these
guys embrace it and play well, whether it be Clil
Whitney getting some fun. Archie Goodwin, like you mentioned, has
played two really good games. I mean, even seeing a
guy like DJ Burns embrace the fan base. You know,
where did this guy come from? But wherever he came from,
he's bringing a lot of energy and was needed in

(06:51):
that second game. And so glad they avoided disaster and
won that one to move on. Like you said, Shannon,
the dream of winning that million dollars stays alive and
it gives us something to talk about for another week.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
I don't know that they win that game yesterday without
Dj Burns talking about a guy that just kind of
agree if everyone's fell into their lap. And you know,
a lot of fun watching these games. I forget, like
how how serious our fan base takes these July games.
You know, and and unfortunately, let me ask you this,
are you disappointed that we're not going to have a

(07:22):
matchup between Lotamilia and the vill Because the vill got
beat yesterday, they're now out of the TVT That now
means that Kentucky Loftamilia will have home court advantage. Throughout
as long as they continue to win. But are you
disappointed that we won't have that game versus the Villa again?

Speaker 1 (07:37):
I feel like that's the one we.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Were all looking forward to, you know, maybe slightly just
because of the environment of that first game at Freedom
Hall last year was special and obviously the TVT people.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Wanted that to happen.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
But you know what I mean, I'm not going to
cry over them losing, Shannon, You know what, that's kind
of incredible that they get all fired up and lose.
I mean, Kentucky very well could have lost yesterday. I
mean it was either way at one point, but for
Little to be down twenty one at halftime to Sideline Cancer.
About Mantrez Harrol, who lost in the Big Three that day,
took a private plane so he could play in the

(08:09):
TVT and then lost again against Sideline Cancer.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
Not the best day, no for Montrez. Uh.

Speaker 3 (08:15):
But yeah, actually a little disappointed that those two teams
won't meet. You know, good for Drew Franklin and his health.
But at the same time, I was looking forward to
that matchup, weren't you.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Kind of I mean, I think it's funny we can
laugh at Louisville for losing. Anytime we lobsill loses, it's
a good day. But I did kind of, you know,
I was, I guess, you know, wanting to see that
Kentucky loisvill matchup, which doesn't happen. If if Louisville doesn't
you know, they got to continue to win, They're already
out of it now.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
So I am a little bit disappointed that.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
We don't have that matchup, But then again, it gets Kentucky.

Speaker 1 (08:47):
Home court advantage advantage. Don't now play?

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Is it everline or Eberline drive? Is that that's Archie
Gilblin's former team.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
They're gonna be Archie's old team.

Speaker 3 (08:54):
It's one of the few original teams that have been
with the TVT since it started. And I guess Archie
had been playing that team for multiple years and would
have played for Love Familiar last year if the communication
would have been a little better. So a revenge game
for Archie and and really just poetic how it happened
with him and how he was so vulnerable on KSR
last week, and it was a great interview he was

(09:16):
so he was really awesome to see him have success
and everybody dog pile on him after his game winner.
You know, Ansley Alminor hits the game winner in the
first game, and while that game was never a question,
Sean Woods said, you know, he was a little nervous
and he wanted to make sure he got the final
shot so he could get over some of those nerves.
And so some cool storylines have developed. Fun to embrace

(09:37):
these guys when nothing's going on right now, and and
now they'll play again. Is it Tuesday night, Shannon? Is
that the next game or Thursday? You know, honestly, I
don't know what date is. I know the team they're playing,
but I don't know the date on that yet.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
But going back to Archie for just a minute, how
about Yeah, something that you kind of just touched on
there that he mentioned on KSR last week was the
fact that he would have been on Lo Familia's team
last year if he had just gotten the text message.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
I mean the way we communicate now, how about just
pick up a phone and call somebody, you know, like
leave a voicemail or you know, a text doesn't go through.
We know by now that text don't go through all
the time. Just being in a group text message with
Ryan Lemon, you know you're in that group text message.
Somebody's got an android, you know, the green bubble that
pops up when you get the text or don't get

(10:24):
the text in this situation. But we could have had
Archie on the team last year but a text.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Didn't go through.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
He didn't know about it, and instead he was playing
for this team that La Familia is about to play
this upcoming week.

Speaker 4 (10:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
I think he alluded to the platform he was using
deleted the message after a certain period of time or.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
Something like that, that it was like a burner phone.
I don't know what's going on, what's going on there,
but it is, you know, a cando chat Ryan Leon.
It is snapchat worthy. But you know, all the issues
we've had with Ryan is real. Like we could send
text out and the group will not get them. You know,
some people won't get them, and people would be mid conversation.
You'll have to go back and say, what's happening, what's

(11:00):
going on? I get this all the time, Like you
guys will send you know, the group text and then
I'll get you know, like the text for whatever reason
start coming through midway through the conversation, yes, and it'll
be like out of nowhere.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
Oh no, how did he die? Wait a minute, who died?

Speaker 2 (11:17):
I didn't see it, you know, it was something like that,
you know, Yeah, I mean I didn't even see the
beginning of it, you know. But but yeah, it happens,
especially when you're in those group texts with somebody with.

Speaker 3 (11:26):
This and we know you, Shannon, you hate texting. I mean,
Shannon is pretty much tell me, do not text me.
Do you want to reach me, call me. If it's
something quick, okay, text me. But I get a million
text messages a day, and I feel like I spend
half my day reading text messages and then going do
do do and texting people back, which takes so I mean,

(11:46):
it takes longer.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
Than a conversation. You could call me up and go, hey,
this is going on, okay, cool, talk to you tomorrow.
But then I gotta read the text. I gotta reply
back to the text. Now I've got a million typos,
so I gotta go back, and you know, I have
to go back and type the text over again.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
It's such a hassle. I hate text messaging.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
I've always said that if text messaging, hey come before
phone calls, no one would have ever texted.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Ever.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
Again, like if the technology, you know exist at where
you could text, but you can never pick up a
phone and hear somebody else's voice. You would have a like,
oh my god, you're telling me that we've been texting
each other all these years, But now we have this
crazy invention where I could pick up this device, I
can talk into it, they can hear me, and I
can hear them.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
Like that would be the greatest avintion ever.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
Right now, nobody ever wants to They don't ever want
to be on a phone call. They want to text,
and I can't stand texting. Well, look, let me take
it from a different perspective. You just want to get
the conversation over with. You want the person to tell
you what they want or whatever they're going to tell you,
and then you can respond and that's the end of
the conversation. Sometimes, Shannon, that's exhausting to talk to somebody.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
Sometimes you want to maybe slow play a conversation. You
don't want to have an immediate response. So that's why
I think texting comes in in the dating world, Shannon.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
You don't want to always be on the phone. Sometimes
you want to have the text messages.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
So, especially if you're going to be constantly talking with somebody,
you have time to think, is what you're saying. Yes, yeah,
also got the paper trail of the conversation.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
Well that's true. I mean, if you're talking on the phone,
you go, I didn't say that. You must have dropped that.
I didn't say that.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
Oh, so you're just.

Speaker 3 (13:20):
Like you're gaslighting at somebody and saying, oh, I didn't
say that. But no, look, I mean sometimes you need
a little time to think about the response, especially you're nervous,
pretty girl, Shannon, maybe first date coming up, You're trying
to plan something out. You don't want to hear all
my ums and us as I try to string a
sentence together.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
But uh, coming from.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
Different generations, right, I mean I pretty much grew up
with a phone in my hands, and so middle school,
high school, I'm texting and getting to know these friends.
You know, Shannon's getting letters in the mail. No, I
still am still A'm getting letters. Absolutely, We're just talked
about this last week. You know, back in high school,
you're past seeing like the letters.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
You're trying to d in high school, yes or no?
Check yes or no?

Speaker 3 (14:05):
You want to go to homecoming with me? Things like that.
It was just a simpler time back then. It definitely was.
And now we have group text messages. Now you can't
get kids off their phones in the classroom. That's right,
it's a thing A.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Five nine twenty two eighty seven.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
We'll talk more about TBT and everything from over the weekend.
We'll take your calls and if you want to get
those tickets for Alice, Blue Gown and Never Clear Manchester
Music Hall dot com. That's coming up on August the eighth.
We'll be right back. It is the KSR. Appreciate it,
Shannon the dude and to talk to me and Billy
give us a call on the Clark's Popping Chop phone
line at eight five nine two eight oh twenty two
eighty seven.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
You and al Snow at the Coldplay concert.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
Well, that's that's funny because guess what I did Saturday night,
Alice No, Alice know when I went to a cold
Play concert? No, no, no, we didn't. I was hanging
out with Alice No on Saturday night. Though, I think
what Well, we have temporarily put our differences aside because
you know else Know's wife is friends with Sarah, so

(15:03):
you know Alan Opertukiy we pretend to like each other
long enough to be able to be civil in public.
But this past Froddy was Alice Knows I believe eighty
fifth birthday and his wife texted and said, Hey, we've
been wanting to go to the speakeasy place in Louisville
for a while. Would you like to join us and

(15:24):
go out for Al's birthday? I said, yeah, sure, we'll go.
You know, I'll do anything for Al for his birthday.
I guess you know, I'll at least pretend to like
him for one day.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
What a friend.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
Yeah, yeah, I wasn't too happy when I saw the
bill at the end of the night. Billy, I don't know.
I'm not going to say the name of this place.
I'm not gonna throw anybody under the bus. But we
were there and apparently it was twenty dollars drink night
and I never had a bill this much for like
five or six drinks in my entire life, which, by
the way, I didn't drink five or six drinks.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
These were for other people too.

Speaker 3 (15:54):
You know, are you guys ordering fancy cocktails? Maybe some mocktails?

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (15:59):
I was like, you have to, I mean, it was
like the cheapest drink on, there was like a twenty
dollars old fashion.

Speaker 3 (16:04):
I'm going Long Island iced team for the group play.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
Man, you really think holly of your old fashions.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
I mean they were good, don't get me wrong, But
you know, two hundred dollars later, I'm going, my goodness,
I could have gotten something really nice for two hundred bucks,
and still all I got was a few drinks.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
I'll tell a young Shannon the Dude, he's going out
to have drinks with Al Snow and how plays? I mean,
come on, tell.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
A young Al Snow he's going to go have drinks
with Shannon the Dude on his birthday.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
He's sixty two, He's not eighty five.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
Oh, I was only twenty three years off. Pretty much.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Hey, nothing says long days like clutch plays and firing
off a few bets on the game. All with Draft
Kings Sportsbook. The Major League Baseball season has started back.

it is. In just a minute, let me get through this.

to the phones, before we get back to the TVT
while I'm on the subject of baseball, did you see
the Braves Yankees game? That one play from the Brave
Yankees game over the weekend? Did you see the one play?

Speaker 3 (17:33):
Didn't see anymore than that?

Speaker 1 (17:34):
Okay, Ronald, Look, the Braves are terrible.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
You know, they're probably gonna sell off a bunch of
guys and get ready and try to rebuild for next year.
The one guy you cannot let go is Ronald Acunya Junior,
who plays right field, and pulled off to me, this
is the greatest throw in baseball I've ever seen in
my life.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
Long fly ball deep into the right field corner.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
First of all, Cunya catches it like it's a pop up,
like kind of basket, catches it over his shoulder, pivots
and throws from the right fil corner all the way
across the field to third base. Meanwhile, the Yankees player
is tagging up from second to go to third. Acuna
throws this thing on a frozen rope like I have
never seen before in my life, all the way from

(18:19):
the right full corner all the way to third and
gets the guy out tagging up from second.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
Billy, you saw that. Have you ever seen a throw
like that?

Speaker 2 (18:26):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (18:27):
You know, I've seen a couple throws from right to third,
but there's usually a bounce right.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
I mean, this was no arch to the throw it was.
It was just a straight bullet.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
It was like you know, Henry Baumgarner, Rookie of the Year,
throws it from the outfield bleachers to home plate on
a line. Now that's fiction, that's a movie. But Shannon,
this was incredible. The way he caught it. He knew
he was gunning him down right like he does that
basket catch right into the turn. And you know, Acunya
has done some simply incredible things in his baseball career,

(18:59):
one of them being his first pitch that he got
after coming back from injury was a home run, I believe. Yeah,
then he comes and does something like this. This guy
is special and that was one of the better baseball
highlights of the year, no doubt.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
I mean, he did it and it was just effortless,
like he wasn't even trying, just like being you know,
like a normal guy would throw an in filled ground ball.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
You know, from from third to first.

Speaker 2 (19:19):
He's throwing it from deep right filled all the way
across the diamond to third.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
It was. It made it look easy too, you know,
like yeah, like a little bit of a crow hot,
but not like he like dove throwing that thing.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
Yeah, it was.

Speaker 3 (19:30):
It was incredible and maybe the highlight of the Brave
season probably so.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, because they lost again yesterday eight five nine, eight
twenty two eighty seven, just a couple of minutes here
before we go to the break, how about our boy Willy.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
Cally Stein playing.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
You know, Now, he didn't light the world on fire
or anything like that. He was three for three in
the first game. I will point that out, said six points.
But the cool thing or the interesting thing, I don't
know if it's cool, but the interesting thing that I thought,
you know, on his appearance last week here on KSR
was him mentioning that he doesn't even own a basket,
doesn't even pick up a basket, doesn't even think about
it until he has to go out there and play.

(20:04):
And I don't know, Billy, I guess in my mind,
I know these guys are alumni, but you know, I'm
thinking that these guys are you know, practicing year round,
you know, at home, and they're off off time getting
ready for these games and everything. Willy is just like, no,
I don't even own a basketball. So, you know, is
is it possible that maybe more guys, more players are
like this that don't really put in a whole lot

(20:25):
of effort. And in my mind I'm building it up like, yeah,
these guys are working out, they're getting after it, getting
ready to you know, try to win the TVT tournament,
get that million dollars, and then you get Willy going dah.
You know, I was just, you know, just doing my thing.
Don't even have a basketball.

Speaker 3 (20:40):
Well, look like conditioning is one thing, right, You're gonna
you're gonna be at times, you're gonna be in the
best shape of your life. At other times it's gonna
get away from you. And obviously that becomes more of
a factor when you're an alumni coming back to playing
a basketball game. But like these guys played basketball their
entire lives, right, you don't lose the shoot the shot, Shannon.
You know, you don't lose the you know, the muscle

(21:00):
memory of your form or you know what it is
doing under moves under the basket. So you know, do
they put on Bruce Springstek and shoot basketball to glory days? Like,
you know, I'm not sure. I don't think that that's
probably what they're doing. They're probably living their life. But
you know, wait until they have kids, right, and they
start to teach the game to maybe some of their youngins.
And maybe Willy will start to do that, maybe he

(21:21):
has kids.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
I have no idea, but yeah, I mean I hear
what you're saying, and I guess I would say fair enough.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
But I mean, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
If I were like, let's say a baseball player going
to play in a game, I might go take a
few cuts in the batting cage. I might go take
a few ground balls. I may you know, throw the
ball a little bit before I go out there and
just do it live action.

Speaker 3 (21:37):
Say those mountains. I used to throw pigskin over those mounts.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
Exactly eight five nine two eight twenty two eighty seven.
We'll take your calls. Coming up next here on the
KSR pre Show.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
All right, welcome back. It does the KSR pre Show sort.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
Of digging into their they ever clear like song list,
I forget, like how many hits they actually had a
lot of these bands, you know, you think, well, they
only have one big hit. You know, they had like
at least seven songs. Maybe maybe though actually play them.
I like Primus. I'm just saying, you know, oh, Primis.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
We got a lot of feedback about Primus.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
And people were not happy at my promise. Take When
I was like, look, man, you got a dozen or
so hits. Why are you not playing.

Speaker 1 (22:16):
Any of them? People are like, oh, you're just spoiled.
I'm like I'm spoiled, Like I don't know.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
I'm not thinking about me as much as I'm thinking
about the people who paid fifty or sixty dollars for
a ticket and didn't even get to hear a song.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
They know, That's all I say.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
And we know Alice Blueguwn is going to play their.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
Hits, that's right, all two of them.

Speaker 3 (22:31):
Yeah, but ever clear, I don't know what it was.
I think it was an old guitar Hero game, so
that's what I recognize it from, not the parents playing
it when I'm in the back seat, but you know,
finding it on my own. But people are asking if
they can leave whenever clear starts after they see again, Well, you.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
Know what I mean, Hey, get your tickets. You can
do what you want. I mean, I'm not telling you
what to do.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
But you know, we're expecting a big crowd, so that's
the thing. We want to make sure that that, you know,
we we can help sell some tickets and packed the
place out there.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
Manchester Music Hall.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
I think it holds like maybe a little over a
thousand if we could get if we can get close
to capacity, that would be pretty amazing, Like that would
definitely make my day.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
For sure.

Speaker 3 (23:10):
If we could do that, that would be awesome. I'm looking
forward to it. I got something for you, Shannon. I
just sent you a text message of a tweet that's
something or of something that happened to Rory McElroy at
the Open this weekend. I don't know if you've seen this.
You probably haven't, since you don't watch a ton of golf, no,
not a whole up. Congrat watch that video. I want
to get your real time reaction because it is one
of the more incredible things that I've ever seen on

(23:31):
a golf course. Now, Scotti Scheffler won the Open. Congratulations
to him. He's only one major away from the Grand Slam.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
I just saw it.

Speaker 3 (23:38):
But Rory McRoy was in the rough over the weekend
and had to hit his ball. But when he did,
he hit a second ball that was hiding underneath the grass.
It goes straight up in the air and then it
goes right back down. Okay, Shannon, that was a second
ball that was under the grass that he hit after
he hit his first ball. It may be one of

(24:00):
the more astonishing things I've ever seen in a golf
swinger on a golf course.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
He hits his ball all, I'm retweeting this too.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
And then the second ball comes back from the earth,
sprouts into the air, and everybody's like, where is this
ball come from? That had to be in the ground
and hit after Rory hit his initial.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
Shot, because when I saw this shot, I'm looking at
it here on a loop. I thought that the ball
that he hit was his ball that went straight up
in the air and came back and rolled to his feet,
and I go, that looks like something that.

Speaker 3 (24:31):
I would do, right.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
I didn't realize there was a.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
Second ball underneath of that that popped up. So, yeah,
that's pretty impressive. Isn't that bizarre? That is crazy? Yeah,
But you know, looking at the shot and not realizing
there's another ball underneath that.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
That's something I feel like I do when I go
play golf.

Speaker 2 (24:49):
I hit the ball and it literally pops up right
by me and then hits my foot.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
That's my kind of golf.

Speaker 3 (24:55):
Yeah, or not able to find your ball because it's
so deep into the grass. So he up at that point.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
That's one of the crazier things I think I've ever
seen in golf.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
Yeah, big weekend for him. He went back home to
Northern Ireland, everybody was rooting for him to win. He
did not, But at the same time, that will be
a highlight that lives on for a long time.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
At Shannon the Dude and at Billy are Sports. On Twitter,
one person writes in and asks us do we think
that the elam ending will ever be used in a
regular season game in either college basketball or the NBA.
I think if it were to ever be a thing,
it would be the NBA before it would be college
I could definitely see them at some point, maybe they
use it in the NBA All Star Game, for instance, right, yes, correct,

(25:34):
So I mean I think that if it were I
don't think that it will, But if it were to
ever happen, it were to be like, you know, game
popularity to the point to where people now think that's
the best way to end a basketball game is with
the elam ending. I could see a situation and maybe,
you know, like the midseason tournament that they.

Speaker 3 (25:48):
Do, the Nil Invitational, that college basketball maybe has started
doing something like that. Yeah, like you know, it's it's
almost in the same vein as the home run derby
after tenanting idea, you know, will that ever be implemented
to a regular season game or postseason likely not. But
at the same time, for some of these exhibitions, some

(26:09):
of these in season tournaments where you can change the
rules a little bit, I absolutely think you'll see more
of the elam ending. But I mean, did you enjoy it, Shannon?
I mean it created a little urgency at the end.
But at the same time, it's a little gimmicky, right.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
It is gimmicky, and I am like a you know
me stuck in traditionalists, like, yeah, let's play the game
out till the clock it's to zero.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
But for the games like this, I'm on board with it.
I like it.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
I think it creates some drama, but it also, you know,
sets up a situation to where you could end the
game on a free throw.

Speaker 1 (26:42):
You know.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
That's very true, so you know, but but is it
better than you know, a normal game where you would
First of all, a lot of these games, like outside
of Kentucky, let's be real, the people really care about
TVT here in Kentucky. We do because it's Kentucky, it's
former players, and it's basketball. Anything Kentucky basketball related we're
going to love. I feel like we eat this stuff

(27:03):
up a lot more than other fan bases. Out there, like,
is the Auburn war Ready team. Is their fan base
as excited about basketball in July as Kentucky fans.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
I don't think so.

Speaker 3 (27:15):
Absolutely not.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
No. I mean this is there's a reason why, and
we sold so many tickets, right, that's why you get
the host right that.

Speaker 3 (27:22):
No, this passion is unique to this state. I absolutely believe.
And you saw that in the support for the Louisville
team as well. It was not just Kentucky. It's people
love their basketball around here. Now, you you wonder if
people really care about the TBT outside the state of Kentucky. Well,
that's why you go out and get a guy like
Jesser Shannon, maybe an audience you don't have. I mean,
you get people invested.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
Stop with this Jesser guy.

Speaker 3 (27:46):
People are saying Jessterer could have made a big impact
in the war Ready game. Shannon, Maybe it's not that
close to the game if Jesser is there. But I
don't know.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
The only reason I w want Jesser out there is
just to see him get dunked on by the other
team and then you take them out and put them
back on the bench.

Speaker 1 (27:59):
A little Mike of YouTube video about it.

Speaker 3 (28:01):
I've always thought you just get one guy that checks
in and just fouls immediately five straight fouls, or just
you know, goes and gets a checked it by throwing
an elbow.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
Okay, okay, yeah, have Jesser go throw an elbow and always.

Speaker 3 (28:12):
Stop the final that game. Minutes of the game.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
That guy who is your enforcer needs to look like
Jamal mcglore.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
You know, somebody's got some built.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
You don't put the little dorky, nerdy YouTube influencer out
there to go foul somebody because he's gonna get his
block knocked off.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
Are you saying I can't be an endosier.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
No. If you're gonna be an enforcer, you got to
be a basketball player that's good enough to be on
the team, but not good enough to play, but could
also you know, push somebody around. You're not gonna put
Jesser out there with his little YouTube video to go
out there and follow somebody.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
That's Mario just walked in. He's laughing me thinking that
I could be an enforcer.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
My God, give me an enforce.

Speaker 3 (28:48):
Laugh at me, Mario.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
They would look at you like did a fly just
land on my shoulder? Like what is this?

Speaker 3 (28:52):
But you know what, I'm gonna go out there and
give it my all and I'll give you that just
like Jesser would have. But uh, we'll never know, and
hopefully that doesn't bite him in the butt.

Speaker 1 (29:00):
Mark.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
Pope is going to be holding an invite only press
conference today, Billy, I'm sure there's gonna be a lot
of questions about that, the progress or the summer workouts.
Do you think though we get any significant news today
or just typical coach speak?

Speaker 3 (29:16):
Well, Pope has been really good at, you know, talking
in not just coach speak, right. He maybe gives a
little too much about his team at times, So you know,
I'm not sure. I'm more worried about this invite only that.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
You didn't get the invite I did. I got invited.

Speaker 3 (29:31):
You know you did not? Yeah, oh, shut up, you
did not get invited.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
I think Mario got invited.

Speaker 3 (29:37):
Oh I know Mario did.

Speaker 4 (29:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:38):
Oh you didn't get invited. Oh he said, no, Okay,
I don't.

Speaker 1 (29:43):
Know what to tell you.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
I mean, see, and now I have fomo. I mean,
I'm not going to intend one press conference this year.
But the fact that this was invite only and I
wasn't invited, it didn't sit right with me. Oh did
Mario did get invited?

Speaker 1 (29:56):
Oh he did.

Speaker 3 (29:57):
Let me check, I see if I can.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
You did not get I bet John Short even got invite?
Hey John, what's what's going on?

Speaker 1 (30:02):
John?

Speaker 3 (30:04):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (30:05):
Nothing unless you all great Americans.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
You're a great American.

Speaker 4 (30:09):
And we're gonna win this tournament this year. We're gonna win.
I know we didn't win LANs and we win this year.
And it's good that what we got beat.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
That's right, we're in the Sweet sixteen.

Speaker 2 (30:17):
Kentucky Lothamilia can now host all the way through to
the end.

Speaker 1 (30:21):
So yeah, that's exciting stuff.

Speaker 4 (30:24):
Yes, there's only one Sweet sixteen, in my opinion's a
high school basketball tournament. Are you in the community to
call this the final sixteen? To me, if the whole
world knows that the Sweet sixteen is basketball in Kentucky,
we just call this a final sixteen?

Speaker 1 (30:37):
What about in college basketball? Though?

Speaker 2 (30:39):
March madness, You don't think that that's the Sweet sixteen?
You have to call that the final sixteen?

Speaker 4 (30:44):
Yes, that do because to me, there is a whole
meeting needs to know that there's only one Sweet sixteen.
That's the girls and boys school basketball Furment. That's what
they need to know. That's what they need to call
the Sweet sixteen. Now in baseball, we heard you gotta
be coming me in Mane from BELLMONTVIC for somebody trains
right from Billbont. You've hitched it next year.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
Yeah, benji Ow and just continues to load up the
roster for next year. I think that he's gonna have
another good team put together. So I'm really excited about
what Njion can do in the off season.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
Through the transfer portal.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Yes, all right, John, you talk about somebody who's a
purest and traditionalist.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
I think John Short. Thanks for the college John.

Speaker 2 (31:19):
I think John is definitely more of a traditionalist when
it comes to sports than I am. He says only
high school gets to claim the Sweet sixteen, not even
in college, and definitely not in the TBT.

Speaker 1 (31:29):
Says John Short.

Speaker 3 (31:30):
He has spoken, but he'll also do things his own way,
like announcing the losing score before the winning score at times, right,
or you know, maybe a volleyball win in five sets
when it's not possible to win five sets. So we
love John and he's going to do it his own way.
I did get invited to the media advisory today, so
he did.

Speaker 1 (31:48):
Okay, yeah, there you go. Did you I told you
I did?

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Yeah, I don't think you did.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
I'll just you know, there's gonna be other people there.
I'll send my questions. I'll group text my question in, you.

Speaker 3 (31:59):
Know, and maybe give it to Mario have him handle it. Yeah.
I just just like being invited to Shannon's house. You
wanted to be invited but ended up, you know, not going, So.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
You're not going to go then? No, No, probably that's
the thing. That's why you don't get invited to things.
I tell him, Matt, Well I did.

Speaker 3 (32:14):
Actually, if you want to correct the record, I did
get invited.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
Well, that's why I don't invite you to things because
I know now you're not going to come out anyway.

Speaker 3 (32:20):
I wanted to come out to your house, but Mario
had to get back so he can go to Arizona
at five in the morning. If we remember Shannon after
the derby, so well.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
You had better come to the Alice Bluegown ever clear show.
I've invited you. I do want you to show it
for that. If I have to buy you a ticket,
I will to make sure you're No.

Speaker 3 (32:34):
I don't want to ticket, but can I come backstage.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
No, what are you a groupie?

Speaker 3 (32:40):
A group groupie is not the word I was going
to use, but like, I'd love to have some sparkling
water backstage or something with you guys whatever, you're weak
little rider list.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
Only we get the Cheddar Checks mix and the thin
Mint Girl Scout cookies and what.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
Was it the cupcake moscato? Yeah, you don't get that.

Speaker 3 (32:59):
I want some come mescato with cle before the show start.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
You gotta go out there and buy the ten dollars
beer and you know the sugary alcoholic drinks that you
get at the bar. That's that's what you gotta do
until you get your your own band that you can
open up for us, and we'll open up for them
till it goes.

Speaker 3 (33:15):
I don't like it, but I'm still coming.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
I guess eight five You guess eight five nine twenty
two eighty seven will take more of your phone calls
coming up. Next final segment on the Way KSR pre Show.
Next final segment of the KSR pre Show eight five
nine two twenty two eighty seven. Just now saw the
the uniforms the Reds and the Braves will be wearing

(33:39):
for their game coming up.

Speaker 1 (33:40):
Did you see this? Have you seen this yet? Billy?

Speaker 3 (33:42):
Yeah, I just saw it actually, Okay.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
For the Speedway Classic and the Braves uniforms, I like,
the Reds have like checkerboards on their hats. I'm not
a fan of the Reds hat, but their jerseys are
cool looking. The Braves kind of have like a flame
effect on their hat, which I'll yeah, you know, I
guess for this, I think it's kind of cool.

Speaker 3 (34:02):
Well, the Braves looks like you just bought a hot
rod and you've got the flames and you're showing it
off at the local car show. The Reds checkerboard or
checkered flag, I mean it's you know, it's not akin
to Tennessee or Kentucky. It's it's the checker flag, right,
So I think it does look a little different and distinct.
But is there going to be a race going on
as they play or they're just playing in the actual arena?

Speaker 1 (34:25):
Yeah, I don't. I don't think there's gonna be like
cars going.

Speaker 3 (34:27):
Around, and that's disappointing.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
Two hundred miles an hour during the during the base.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
There's like car fumes going off and the guys are
trying to play a baseball game. That would be the
entertainment I'm looking for. This is just gonna be a
big arena.

Speaker 2 (34:40):
But I like the Braves jerseys though, and I like
the Reds jerseys. I'm just not crazy about the hats.
Hats are a little remind me too much of the that's.

Speaker 3 (34:49):
Coming up right August something.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
What is the date on that? I don't know what
the date is, but it's coming up soon.

Speaker 3 (34:55):
A lot of people in the text line agree with
you about phone calls over text messages. You can saw
a conversation in five minutes what would take thirty minutes
via text. But I want to add, Shannon, is that
sarcasm really doesn't translate well via text. How many times
have I texted somebody something like slightly sarcastic, yeah, and
they just completely goes right over their head and then

(35:15):
makes you think like you're a bad person. That's some
of the downfalls.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
So that's why I got to use the emojis. And
then then you get into all that using the emojis
and stuff like just call me. It's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (35:26):
One person writes on Twitter and says, you were talking
about will he not practicing? Before the TBT, have you
been practicing for your first pitch at the Legends game.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
No, I have not. As a matter of fact, maybe
I should. But again, do you.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
Have a ball in glove at your house and you
just play catch every now and then?

Speaker 2 (35:43):
Shin? And no, I have to like throw the ball
up against the wall so it would, you know, bounce
back to me. But no, that's coming up a week
from tomorrow, next Tuesday, the twenty ninth, And Ryan, you know,
was trying to insert himself into this whole situation and
be the MC so that he could heckle me for
my first pitch there. But no, it's intern night, so
Ryan will he got shut down for the interns, So

(36:04):
the interns will be running the game that night at
the Legends Ballpark.

Speaker 1 (36:08):
But I'll still be out there throwing the first pitch.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
So looking forward to that, And I'm glad that it's
actually intern night, because then i'd have to deal with Ryan,
you know, trying to publicly embarrass me on the mic
on the PA microphone. And instead it's going to be
just me and some interns and maybe Billy our Sports
will make an appearance.

Speaker 3 (36:26):
Now I won't be going to that. I'm too bitter. Uh,
they invited you and not me, but you know, Ryan
definitely would be trying to make a joke out of you.
So the most famous iHeartRadio intern getting invited to throw
out the first pitch intern night.

Speaker 1 (36:40):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (36:41):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (36:41):
Speaking of baseball, you know the cal Raleigh, the name
we've talked about a lot, the big dumper. Did you
see on DraftKings Instagram on the DK Instagram. He has
partnered with a Porter Potty company. And why wouldn't he
when you have a name like that?

Speaker 1 (36:52):
Right? I think this is brilliant marketing.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
But what I realized and looking at this, like the
pictures that they tweeted out with cal Raley and this
poor is how unassuming the guy looks like. If cal
Rawly was not in a baseball jersey, I would just
think he's some dude with the dad bod, you know,
just like an average joe out on the streets.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
But you may have to scroll back.

Speaker 2 (37:12):
I think this was from last week when they tweeted
when they posted this on their instagram. But if you've
seen cal Rawley just out of his jersey, he doesn't
even look like a baseball player.

Speaker 1 (37:21):
To me.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
I feel like back in the day if you saw
Mark McGuire, or you saw Sammy Sosa or a Barry
Bonds or some of these guys you know that are
breaking home run records, you wouldn't It wouldn't matter if
they had their jersey on or not. They would look
like somebody. They would look like a professional athlete, you know.
And I see cal Ralely, you know, in his T
shirt and shorts, and I'm going that guy right there,

(37:43):
who looks like you're an average joe with his dad bod
could be the all time single season home run leader
at the end of this season. And I don't think
that anybody could pick him out of a lineup, Like
if you were just out in public, I don't think
that anybody would even recognize him.

Speaker 1 (37:57):
Unless you were like a hardcore Mariners fan.

Speaker 3 (38:00):
Right.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
But if he came to.

Speaker 2 (38:01):
You know, let's say he was, I don't know, hanging
out at Bourbon and Beyond Fast and there's cal Rawle,
you wouldn't know that's cal Raleigh from any other person
out there.

Speaker 3 (38:10):
Well, I mean, I might clock his big dumper, Shannon
and be able to tell that is the big dumper.
But I think there's some truth to what you're saying,
I mean it looks like he could be two one
of the guys and two guys one van moving your
washing machine leader today. I mean he he does look
like just a regular dude. And even in a sport
where you can see their face, right, I mean it's

(38:30):
football players that are always like, I got to wear
this helmet, nobody can see my face, I can see
what I look like. Well, you're I mean that's like
maybe just baseball, Shannon, but you're right, when you're going
for the home run record, you'd think you'd have a
little bit of more recognition, and this guy is just
kind of came out of nowhere this year.

Speaker 4 (38:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
Like you know, they say, like the airport test, Like
if you were in an airport and you saw the
guy walking by, does the guy look like somebody that
would turn your head like, Oh, that's got to be
somebody like even if you didn't know who they were,
Like professional wrestlers they talk about, you know, even if
you didn't know who they were, when they walk by
you in an airport, you go, that's got to be
somebody like he you know, he's got to be either

(39:06):
an athlete or a wrestler or something.

Speaker 3 (39:09):
Well, yeah, wrestlers are usually huge, right, Maybe they've got
some really tight pants on too, That's just seems to
be the lifestyle.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
I don't think they do that all the time.

Speaker 3 (39:18):
Oh they don't. I figure they just walking around in
there get up. But yeah, I don't know if I'm
not I'm you know, Shannon, I'm not. I don't think
I'm recognizing cal Raley in a line of no or not.
I don't think I am.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
You told me something before we went on the air.
It was a little disappointing, little disappointing. I thought I
would get more support from you and your family than
what than what I have. But we were talking, you know,
over the weekend. We got a lot of rain last
week and over the weekend and stuff. And my pumpkins
in my backyard are now the size of bowling balls.
And you told me before we went on the air
that your dad said there's no chance that Shannon is

(39:51):
going to have any success growing pumpkins. And I thought
that I would get a little more, you know, support
from from mister Rutledge, but apparently not.

Speaker 1 (39:57):
That's okay. I know who.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
I'm not gonna bring a pumpkin when it gets fully ripe.
But I've got several of these things in my backyard
that are now huge, and now I'm like, okay, they're here.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
I don't want to screw this up now now because.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
Now they could rot, they could get like you know,
bugs and stuff in them, and I'm trying to do
everything i can to make sure that doesn't happen. But
I've got some big ass pumpkins in my backyard right now.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
Billy, Now I'm impressed. I mean, you've you've beat the odds,
at least according to the Rutlis family. I think my
dad called me the day that you announced that you
were growing those pumpkins, and as somebody that guard him himself,
and he's like, Shanna, know what the bleep he's doing.
He's wrong, He's not going to be growing these.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Hey call it dumb luck, call it whatever you want.
I've got pumpkins. That's all it really matters right now.
