Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome everyone.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
It is the KSR pre Show, Monday, August the fourth.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
KSR pre Show.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
Being brought to you by Italics Fine Italian donning in Lexington.
And really we are getting closer and closer to football season.
We had the UK Media Day on Friday. We'll get
into that a little bit later on, but first of all,
good morning, how are you.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
How was the weekend?

Speaker 3 (00:38):
Good morning, dude, what's up? It's twenty six days away
until Kentucky football starts. And we had a pretty good
weather weekend here in Lexington, little cool outside, some cloud coverage.
I wish we could say the same about Bristol Motor Speedway.
I'm sure we'll talk about that here in a second.
But it was a good weekend. Enjoyed it, you know.
At one point, I was in the car and I
heard Stuck in the Middle with you do you come

(01:00):
on the radio, and it was almost like a dog
hearing a doorbell. I had to look both ways and
I was like, where am I?

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:05):
Is it time to do the show. It's weird how
smells and sounds things can transport you to a different place.
And I got that a little bit this weekend with
the little Steelers wheel. But what about you? How was
your weekend?

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Dude? It was great, man, It was a lot of fun.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
Actually, Saturday night was the Braves Reds game, at least
it was scheduled to be.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
We'll talk about it that in just a minute, but
I was going to miss it.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
I'm glad it was delayed on till Sunday because I
was going to miss that on Saturday night because I
went to a super secret speakeasy. We've talked about speakeasies
before on this show. Ryan has a speakeasy that he
goes to in Lexington where it's invite only, and you know,
if you're not invited that you don't even know what's
going on. But it was through cornbread, Hemp. Do you

(01:48):
know about this? Were you invited? To this or was
I the only one?

Speaker 3 (01:51):
Yeah, no, I was invited. I completely forgot about it.
I need to apologize to Eric and the team at
Cornbread HELMP because I would have really loved it. By
some of the pictures that you shared, and it looked
like a really cool spot. You guys were like in
like underground.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Oh it was cool.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
So like, first of all, you know, you had to
be on this email list, so it felt very exclusive, right,
And they told you they want you to dress up
like the prohibition era nineteen twenties, So everybody right on,
like there their old school suits and the ladies had
on their flapper dresses and all that good stuff. And
they had to show up at this random parking lot.
And then when you go to this parking lot, you

(02:24):
see a big looks like an old school trolley but
it's like a bus, but it's like a it looks
like a trolley. And before you get on the trolley,
they say, all, right, what email? What's your email? They
go through the list and they before you could even
get on the troll. Like I'm telling you, they took
this thing serious, all the way down to the details.
So you had to you know, you had to look
and say, okay, there's your email. Okay, you can get
on the trolley and you sit there and you wait

(02:46):
for a few more people to get on, and then
they take off with the trolley. They go down the street.
It's like a five minute drive, and they take it
to this I mean, it's just if you could drive
by it. I've probably driven by it one hundred times
and didn't even realize it was there. But it's a
big stone wall and there's just like an inconspicuous door
coming out of this wall. And it's underground, right, but
you can see it as you go by on the street.

(03:10):
And they let us off the trolley there and you
go in and you got to have the secret password
to get in, and then once you get in there,
it was really cool. It's like an underground bunker that
was all cobblestone, so from you know, it's like an
underground tunnel if you can just picture that. And when
you go in, they had a live jazz band that

(03:32):
was playing, they had an open bar, they had food.
I mean, it was like one of the coolest things
I have done in a long time. And of course
they had the thhc seltzers too, I mean, that's that
was kind of the whole point of this. You know,
the ridiculous fact that you can go into a liquor
store and buy a pack of thhc selters, but you
can't go into a bar and order a thh c seltzer.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
It's crazy. So how do you fix that?

Speaker 2 (03:55):
Well, you just have your own speakeasy, which is the
point of having that on Saturday night. But I wish
you were there. I didn't know you were invited. I
didn't bring it up on Friday because I thought, you know,
maybe he's not invited, and it's one of those situations
to where like you're invited, but your buddy's not. I
didn't want to bring that up, so we missed you. Though,
now that I know that you were invited, I wish
you would have come to it. You really missed out

(04:15):
on a good time.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Now I looked like it. I saw that big fluffy
hat you had on, so I figured that would have
been a really fun time. And I like how they
gave you the full experience, whether it be secret passwords
and trolley rides and down into a basement. It does,
like you said, it feels a little bit like prohibition
era with these seltzers that you can't buy in bars
but you can sell in liquor stores. But man, they
are good. I mean I would have traveled a long

(04:39):
way to have some of those seltzers. They have been
very good the few times that I've had them. But
sounds like a fun time, dude.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
They even went down to the detail of hiring like
fake actors, like like, we're not fake actors, fake police
officers as actors right to come in the night they
busted it. So they busted the whole thing and shut
it down. So when it was time for everybody to leave,
the brought in these uh these actors who were police
officers shutting down the prohibition party, which uh it was.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
It was just it was just a lot of fun.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
So and then I was also I wanted to mention
this during like one of the breaks for the band.
You know, they're they're out there playing jazz. I was like, man,
you gotta sound really good. Like how long you guys
been playing together? He looked at me and goes about
two hours. Oh, Like the band literally just got together
that night. But I guess if you're a good musician

(05:28):
and you can play jazz, it's all improv anyway, right,
but I was.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
I was impressed how good the band was, and then
I was really.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
Impressed when he looked at me and goes, yeah, we've
been a band for about two hours, so uh, it
was awesome that.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
You know, if we missed you there.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
So well, we'll get a little into that with Shannon
the dude to this this Friday, right opening up Forever Clear,
and you've got a new guitarist. You guys are trying
to work on new music, so maybe you'll have to
work on the fly a little bit on Friday.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
Oh yeah, We've got like three new songs that we're
going to be playing that we've just figured out yesterday.
So I'm telling you I'm gonna be writing the final
lyrics as I walk on stage Friday night, so we'll
figure it out. It's gonna be fun looking forward to that.
Get your tickets for this Friday night. We're opening up
for a band who sold nine million albums.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
Billy.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
I like to say, between the two bands combined, we've
sold nine million albums. Granted they've sold all the albums
we haven't.

Speaker 3 (06:20):
But yeah, you're like Bobby Bones and Matt Castle doing
an NFL podcast saying the two of you have a
combined twenty thousand passing yards or whatever it may be.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Yep, But anyway, Friday night, seven o'clock doors open. Tickets
for that show Ever Clear and Alice Blue Gown are
at Manchester Music Hall dot com.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
All right, so let's go back to Friday.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
On UK Media Day, Billy, we heard from Mark Stoops,
we heard from Mitch Barnhart, we heard from some of
the players.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
I thought Mark Stooples was great man.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
For whatever reason, I feel like Mark Stoops nine and
a half times out of ten is at his best
when he's on KSR.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
I don't know if it's just like.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
The relaxed atmosphere or whatever it may be, but I
thought that he was great on Friday when he came
on KOSR.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
Not only that, Mitch Barnhardt, I thought struck a lot
of chords with BBN Chayes. Pete is a monster. Shannon's
not favorite player. I love this guy. I got that
not only from the picture that they posted with the guys,
but I actually went and saw them and met with
Matt and Drew afterwards, and I got to see Pete
and he is huge. Cannon like we're talking Frankenstein level huges.

(07:24):
The left side of the line is safe if he's
going to be on the end of it. But you know,
again starting to build optimism for the season, and you're right,
when Stoops is able to cut loose a little bit
and be himself, I feel like he is his best
when he's on KSR. Now, Mitch, I thought, was, you know,
very pointed with some of the stuff that he's had.
You know, some answers to some questions that we've been
asking for a couple of weeks, whether it be is

(07:46):
UK going to cut any sports? He said no, pretty definitively.

Speaker 4 (07:49):
There.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
Talked a little bit about him being confident and being
able to fund the max level of revenue share for
these budgets, and we pried a little bit. He wasn't
willing to share this specific numbers for each sport. But
you know, I I loved everything that I heard from
at least Mitch yesterday. Now, you know, Stoopsy kind of
got to wait and see what this football team's gonna do.
But I thought Mitch was great.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
From Mitch was very guarded though, like you said, he
was not going to share the numbers when it comes
to how they're gonna split the revenue, he says it's
because of a competitive advantage, so that the other schools
don't know. But when Matt asked him, if all the
other schools out there went public with the numbers, would
you be willing to go public too, and he's kind

(08:32):
of like, eh, you know, that's one of the Uh
that was one of the things that he was like,
I don't know about that.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
So he's very guarded.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
I don't think he wants that public information to be
out there, although I do think they has to deserve it.
I don't know, because you know, like Mark Stoop says
that he's happy with it. So I'm just wondering, like,
in Mitch Barnhart's mind, who does he think he is
going to offend. I guess there's always the argument that
there was always going to be one sport that fills disrespected,
but you've got to divide it up the way that

(09:00):
it makes sense for your program. And we've talked about
some people saying, well, Matt Norlander said nine million for basketball,
nine million for football.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Clearly that's not the case.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
Otherwise I think that Mark Stoops wouldn't be as happy
as he is with the split. So I think that
report from Norlander, we can go ahead and squash that
and say that was inaccurate wherever he got his information.

Speaker 3 (09:23):
And you know, I don't think the other sports on
campus are the ones that are disrespected. I got to
think that they know the numbers of not only their sports,
but the other sports. So Mitch sharing those numbers, I
don't think would be anything that would be an issue internally.
It would just be BBN or the public getting those numbers.
But you know, maybe can maybe on the people outside

(09:43):
looking in see all the money that's going to basketball
and think the you know, the programs less committed to football.
That doesn't seem to be the case, at least with
what Mark Soops is saying. But you know, people can
draw their own conclusions. But I think that would be
a way to appeal to more people coming to the
basketball program. But you know, we'll see how all this
shakes out. There's still a lot of moving parts about it.
He did confirm that UK vetoed the proposal to cap

(10:06):
the revenue share, so you know, it's you know, he
was he was that one team and like you said
that they're not going to reveal it unless they're I
guess forced to at good point.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
But yeah, and if you're at Kentucky, why would you
want to cap it when you feel like you can
bring in probably more money than anybody. I mean, I
guess maybe Alabama football would probably bring in quite a
bit of money, but you know, if you.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Didn't have the cap.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
But I think Kentucky wins obviously that's why they didn't
want the cap, because of Kentucky and the fact that
they can bring in more money than other schools.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
Right, But we've had this argument where if there was
a cap, Kentucky's basketball's tradition and history would stand above others.
But now it's the best of both worlds. You're able
to get a little of that history, tradition and pay
the most money. So Kentucky's set up great for this
new landscape. Despite maybe the first year or so Mitch
kind of dragging his feet a little bit and being
very cautious. I think he's turned that corner now.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
So I saw the pictures were just mentioned him. You're
talking about Pete Sage. Pete one of the largest human
beings I've ever seen. He seems like a very philosophical guy.
He was talking about being a history lover and talking
about Napoleon and all these things that maybe you wouldn't
necessarily expect from from a guy of.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
You know, his stature.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
But I think he is going to be my favorite
player going into the season. Granted, I don't know a
whole lot of the other players because they've got over
fifty new players. You know, Zach Calzada obviously, being a quarterback,
probably gonna be a lot of people's favorite depends on
depending on how he plays.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
But if you got.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
Siage Pete in front of you, I feel pretty good
about keeping our quarterback upright.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
Yeah, you know. And they asked him why he came
to Kentucky from New Mexico State, and he said the
competition and the food, yeah, which I love that answer,
like yeah, And then Ryan tried to describe him what
a hot brown was. I don't think that was the
best part of the interviewer.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
I know, I know a hot brown is like supposed
to be a big Kentucky thing, but I'll be honest
with you, I don't even think I have ever even
had a hot brown.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
Have you had a hot brown? I don't think I've
ever had one.

Speaker 5 (12:01):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
I don't ever seek out a hot brown. I'm not like,
you know, it's Saturday night, let's go out on the
town and get a hot brown. I don't feel like
that's something that Kentuckians do, even though it is associated
with our state.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
Yeah, I don't know if it was Keenlan or rapp Arena,
but I've had one. It wasn't great. It's not like
I ran home and told everybody about it. But it's
you know, it's but imagine, strangely a Kentucky.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
Imagine picking a school though because of their food, like
they fed them. Well, big guy, he's like, all right,
they got good food here. Yeah, that's when the cookie
cake comes through. If we remember the picture in the
basketball program that was giving the cookie cake to the recruits.
Makte really liked his.

Speaker 3 (12:39):
But no, like going from New Mexico State to the SEC, it's,
you know, something that you can test yourself about. And
we see that in the transportal a lot. And this
is going to be a guy that can go a
long way to you know, vindicating maybe a guy like
bush Hampden saying that that's going to be the best
offensive line in a while. So those are all positive things.
And and now I believe they'll start to put the

(12:59):
pads on and really start to get things cranking over
at practice. And like I said, only twenty six days
away till that stuff.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
So the other one other thing on stoops.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
In his interview on Froddy on KSR, he mentioned that
the whole thing with Vince Merrill is water under the bridge.
Do you believe, in Billy, do you think that it's
really water under the I think he has to kind
of say that publicly, but you gotta think, man, these
guys were buddies and your your good buddy just left
for the biggest rival.

Speaker 1 (13:27):
That's got to hurt.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
I know he's got to say that publicly it's water
under the bridge, but.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
You know there's gotta be some some fillings still deep down.

Speaker 3 (13:35):
Yeah, you know this is when you say, I wish
you the best of luck, but you really screwed us, Fence.
I mean, you left us at a bad time too, right,
I mean there was it was right in the recruiting
cycle when he decides to leave, not right after the
school end at school you're ended, or right after the season.
He decided to wait and do what was best for
him and not Mark Stoops in Kentucky. Yeah, it's tough,

(13:56):
and Stoops is going to say that he's gonna have
coach speak. But you know, when and that Louisville game
gets closer, there's going to be some extra motivation. Right
Everybody on that staff, I'm sure, is going to be
motivated a little bit more to have to pick up
after Vince left. You know, it's not like they were
just able to replace him with one guy. Everybody's got
to kind of pick up the slack like a company
firing an employee and not rehiring their replacement. It's just

(14:18):
you gotta do what you gotta do, and you say
that so it doesn't become a headline. Stoops has said
several times this year that he doesn't want to create
the headlines. Right, well, going after a former assistant would
be the best way to create one. So that was expected,
but you know, damn well, they're they're battling this year
a little bit harder just to prove people wrong, including
a guy like Vince Merrow.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
What he was at Kentucky, Vince Merrill was the big dog.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
Vincemero goes to Louisville, he can't even put his pants
on straight, hey, five nine, twenty two.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
Eighty so hold on, hold on. You also admitted to
wearing your shirt inside out and backwards.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
Before around the house, not out in public. Okay, around
the house, all right, Well, I mean I wasn't. I
wasn't at like, you know, the corn bread Hemp Speakeasy
wearing my suit backwards, I mean her inside out.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Vince Merriel can't even put his pants on it.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
Louisville a lot of shame for the mismax socks last week.
I got Shannon wearing shirts inside out.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
At peace though, Like around that house, peep, you ever
grab like your laundry, you know, you just grab it
out of the dry or whatever, just throw the shirt on.
I'm walking around the house and I got my you know,
shirt on inside out and backwards. But I'm not out
you know, running practice at.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
U of L either.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
So I feel like there's a difference if you're doing
it at the house and do it in public. Eight
five nine twenty two eighty seven. We'll take your calls.
We'll be right back. It is the Monday morning edition
of the ksrppre Show.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
All right, welcome back.

Speaker 2 (15:38):
It is the ksrppre show e five nine two twenty
two eighty seven, got some open lines.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Come on, wake up people, let's talk.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
What a pull with the song here? Oh yeah, thank you?

Speaker 1 (15:49):
You know what? Every now and then I get it
right on.

Speaker 3 (15:53):
The pre shows, Morris it is it is.

Speaker 4 (15:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:56):
I saw her live at Bourbonham Beyond. She was just
as good live as she was in the which she
was awesome.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
Which, by the way, man, like that's that's next month,
you ala, it's coming up in like h five or
six weeks.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
Are you coming out? You gonna hang out a cool person?
Beyond you?

Speaker 2 (16:11):
You always say that. I feel like you only come
out unless Incubus is playing. Well, isn't playing? Billy will
not come out of his house.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
Well that's a good way to get me out of
the house. You're right, But like, I'm not there for
the four days. I'm only there for one, so I
think you see me for my one day and you
think I'm not committed, and I'm like, no, I just
don't have to be out here, dude. Yeah, but like
Chris Stapleton's coming this year, I think to either Bourbon
or Louder So I know my dad's definitely gonna want
to go to that, but uh no, Atlantis Morsett was great.

(16:37):
That was the time where Shannon you were like, you
said goodbye, I was with the fiance. You're like, all right,
I'll see you later, and Shannon like disappears into the
crowd because he wants to get into the front row.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
That's right, Well, I'll only do that for like one
or two bands. I think it was maybe Allison Chains
that year that was playing.

Speaker 3 (16:51):
Trying to remember who it was after that that you
wanted to see so.

Speaker 2 (16:54):
Bad filter Allison Chains or STP. That's about it. STP
is coming to Louder than Life this year. So no
Chris Stapleton. By the way, it's Sturgil Simpson.

Speaker 3 (17:02):
Oh, that's what I meant. That's what I meant, Sturgil
because Sturgel did the rock album recently, right, he did
h He's done all this country then ended up doing
this rock album, and that's all.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
And then the other thing, like you know, we're gonna
be at the State Fair in what a couple of
weeks from now. Yep, that's coming up soon too, So
what's happening. We're getting through it. We were just talking
before the show. You know the the summer June July
shows are usually tough because.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
There's not a whole lot going on. But we got
we got things happening, Billy, it's gonna be soon.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
Don't worry. We got maybe like two more weeks of
random surveys and Little leaguers getting manned fort bat flipping. Uh,
you know, maybe when we're at our best.

Speaker 2 (17:41):
The dog days of summer means his time for the
boys of Summer to kick it in the gear. And
the best way to cash in on your baseball IQ
is with DraftKings Sportsbook.

Speaker 1 (17:49):

and hope for the best. And if you're a new
customer you sign up with the promo code ks R,
you bet five. You now get two hundred dollars in

about my Braves take two out of three from the Reds.

(18:34):
They win the Bristol Cup or whatever it's called at
Bristol Motor speed Away over the weekend. But Saturday night,
as I alluded to earlier to start the show, it
was an absolute mess out there, rain pouring down. They
delayed the game. They finally tried to play the game,
which I don't even know. I guess I kind of
understand why they tried to, because you have ninety one

(18:54):
thousand people out there anxiously awaiting a game, and the
last thing you want to do is have to push
it to the next day, which inevitably ended up happening
in any way. But I mean that first inning, if
you go back and watch that, there are puddles of
water in the infield. You know, it looked like something
out of a little League game. You don't see that
normally in Major League Baseball because the fields hold the

(19:16):
water so well. But that first inning was an absolute mess.
Did you watch any of it on Saturday night?

Speaker 3 (19:21):
I did. It was it was amazing. They even tried
to play like like you said, mate, I know I
realized why they tried to, but probably nowhere else you
try to play that game. It was like it was
like a firefest shin and like that that disaster of
a concert that happened a couple of years ago. They
ran out of food before the national anthem.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
Yeah, I saw that. Yeah, the fans were really upset.

Speaker 2 (19:42):
They not only that the shuttle service apparently bringing fans
to and from the game. They didn't have enough shuttles. So,
you know, if you're going to have something like this,
you have to be prepared. There's no excuse for Bristol
Motor Speedwaight to not have enough food for the people
that you know how many people are going to be there.
You had the entire season to prepare for one game.

(20:06):
How is it possible you don't have enough food at
the concession stands and you run out before the game
even gets going.

Speaker 1 (20:12):
How is that possible?

Speaker 3 (20:13):
Billy. You were just so worried about getting that baseball
field into that racetrack infield that you didn't even think
about the ninety thousand fans that were gonna do you.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
Think they might be hungry?

Speaker 2 (20:23):
Probably? So, how you're gonna feed ninety thousand fans. You're
gonna need some more hot dogs.

Speaker 3 (20:28):
We'll see. The MLB doesn't know how to do these
ninety thousand sporting events. You know, NASCAR certainly knows how
to do a ninety thousand person event, but MLMA was
just not ready.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
But does that fall I don't know how it works here.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
Does it work? Does it fall on Major League Baseball?
Or is that the venue for not having the food?

Speaker 3 (20:46):
I'm not sure.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
Yeah, I don't know, but you would think, like you said,
I mean, if it's on the venue they have, you know,
races all the time, you would think that they're prepared
for something like that.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
But apparently they weren't.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
People were getting served hot dogs with buns, and I
think that's when I would have left. I would have
just threw it on the ground and walked out of there.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
Do I get a discount on those twelve dollars hot
dog if it doesn't have a bun.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
No, it's a mustard.

Speaker 3 (21:10):
No mustard.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Easy. Here, here's a hot dog. Eat it with the fork.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
Yeah, that sounds like the ten zone was a disaster.
Apparently it was just it was all bad.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
So the Braves end up winning, though they rescheduled the
game for yesterday. Braves end up winning four to two.
But here, to me is the most like entertaining twist
of the whole thing. So the Braves went through basically
two starters. Spencer Strider was supposed to start Friday night,
then the delay happened. They brought in another guy, and
then the delay pushed it to Sunday. So the Braves
go down to Triple A and bring in Hurston Waldrip,

(21:40):
who sounds like he could be a NASCAR driver. Yeah,
and he had to drive two hundred and sixty miles
to get to the game that morning and ends up
pitching in front of ninety thousand people. That's got to
be pretty cool for somebody from Triple A g to
get that call that morning and you have to drive
that far to get to the game and end up being,
i mean, basically the starting pitcher in the second inning.

Speaker 3 (22:02):
Such a cool opportunity. And I would have loved to
have been a fly on the wall when he got
that phone call. Yeah right, you need me win? Yeah today,
right now, to play in front of ninety thousand people
at first Lotor Speedway. Yeah all right, I'll get in
the car.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
You know he'd be on the first thing smoking to
get there and what a coolinity.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
Yeah, absolutely all right.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
We'll take your phone calls coming up next. We got
some calls.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
We'll get to you on the other side of this
break eight five to nine, two oh twenty two eighty
seven if you want to join in on the fun
and we'll be right back. It is the KSR Pre Show.
Welcome back, KSR Pre Show eight five to nine, two
to eight oho twenty two eighty seven. We're going to
the phones in just a minute. Uh billy, I think
it's worth mentioning. At least I didn't watch it, I'll
be honest with you. But the TBT finals happened over

(22:42):
the weekend. Eberlinn Drive that beat Kentucky Lo Familia ended
up losing to the Wichita State of Love not Team.
So the after Shocks are the TBT champions. And you'd
have to think that the tvt wishes that La Familia
were in it, because I don't think that anybody cared
over the weekend unless you were a Witchital State fan. Look,
I mean, let's be honest, how big is their fan base?

(23:03):
And Eberlin Drive? I mean, are the are the fans
of Abrilin Drive out there?

Speaker 1 (23:07):
Maybe a few. But the big loser was the TVT
not having Lo Familia in the finals.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
Yeah, or even the Louisville team. I mean, when both
of those teams went out, you kind of knew it
was a different game when it came to when it
comes to ratings. But you know, hats off to Eberlin Drive.
You know, they got a bunch of Kentucky guys, whether
it be Pa Joe Bradshaw who was at Bellerman or
Davian McKnight who I saw up close and personal at
Western Kentucky AJ Slaughter. Terry Taylor maybe that was our

(23:33):
second team Shannon for TVT. Terry Taylor was he the
red rooster and he was the one that threw up
that crazy three at the end that was a complete
air ball. He was he was good. He won a
championship with the Bowling Green Purples back in my day,
Shannon then played for Austin p But that's a fun
event and hopefully we can just keep getting bigger names
for good La Familia next year.

Speaker 1 (23:52):
I love that my red Rooster comment went completely over
your head.

Speaker 3 (23:55):
Yeah, did you.

Speaker 2 (23:56):
If you were I known anybody that watched WWF in
the eighties, there was this guy, Terry Taylor, and they
gave him the worst, maybe one of the worst gimmicks
in wrestling history. They called him the Red Rooster, and
they put like like a rooster thing on top of
his head and like he had to go around like
when he moved, he had to peck like he was
a rooster, and just called the Red Rooster. Like can

(24:17):
you imagine you get to the WWF and they go,
all right, we're gonna make you a star.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
We got this great idea.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
You're gonna be Terry Taylor, the Red Rooster, and you're
gonna go out and peck like a hen.

Speaker 1 (24:30):
You know what, I would say, as long as the
check cash is, I don't care.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
Oh, but one of the worst, one of the worst
gimmicks of all time.

Speaker 3 (24:37):
Though, you're telling me you wouldn't be the Radio Heavyweight Champion,
you would be the Red rooster, you'd go up there.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
Not in OVW, but if we're talking Vince McMahon money,
and he says, I'm gonna.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
I'm gonna give you a three hundred thousand dollars to
go out there and peck like a question. Yeah, yeah,
that's why he talks.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
Yeah, for the money they were making even in the eighties, man,
they were still making good money. So yeah, be on
Wrestlemannia and you're the red rooster. I'll go peck like
a hen. Just pay me that money. Hey about nine
two eighth, twenty two eighty seven. We got some callers,
Let's get to him. We got Eric up next.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
What's up, Eric?

Speaker 4 (25:10):
Eric?

Speaker 5 (25:12):
Hey, what's up?

Speaker 6 (25:12):
Guys?

Speaker 4 (25:13):
Hey? Man, Hey, I'm six foot six and.

Speaker 6 (25:17):
I think mister Pete there would make me look small.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
I mean, yeah, Matt is what six four five? He'll
tell you. Matt'll probably tell you six foot six, but
he's somewhere around there. And I mean he even dwarfed Matt.
You know, Drew's pretty tall too, and she has Pete
made all. What about Ryan next to him? Ryan came
up to his belly button. Basically, I've been to.

Speaker 3 (25:40):
Get to him. He's listed as six eight three two
on the website.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
Yeah, he's a big dude.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
He's my favorite guy though, Eric, after hearing that interview,
he completely won me over on Friday.

Speaker 4 (25:53):
To rouse in luck at this morning, they said, Cutter
Bowley's looking pretty good out there, So cows Ala happened
to go down. I think we being pretty good shake steal.

Speaker 1 (26:02):
Yeah, I hope it doesn't come down to that. I
appreciate the call.

Speaker 4 (26:04):
Eric.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
You know, again, with this great offensive live we've been
hearing about, I don't expect kels Otto to have to
take too many dives.

Speaker 3 (26:11):
To please name me a Kentucky football season. They haven't
had to year back.

Speaker 2 (26:15):
Okay, fair point, but we heard it. We heard it
in the UK kickoff luncheon. This is gonna remind you
of some of the greatest offensive lines we've ever had.
Quote Bush Hampden, not quote shitting the dude, quote Bush Hampden.
All right, he said that you are you are you
calling bs? Is that what you're saying?

Speaker 3 (26:32):
But we've already said that line twice this morning. That
is going to haunt this team. Okay, they win less
than six games, Okay.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
Don't say it if you don't believe it. Clearly he
believes it. Otherwise he wouldn't have said it.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
Here's another amazing concept when you develop players in your program.
That was something that was missing from the offensive line
and Eric Woolford when he would leave in the middle
of the night or only play starters.

Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (26:52):
You know. Cutter Bowley has come in as a high schooler.
He's been given time and while this may not be
the season that he starts next year, if he stays
Shannon Well, he continued to progress. They say he's put
on twenty pounds. Yeah, Trentillo over here.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
Exactly extrapolate that he stays, he puts on twenty pounds
this year, he stays another he puts on another twenty pounds.
This guy is forty pounds more of muscle than any
other quarterback in Division I college football. That's that's the
way I'll see it. So we got to keep that
guy around too. But if he doesn't play this year,
he has to Cutter Bowly I'm talking about he has
to be the guy next year. If not, I can't.

(27:28):
You know, he's probably gonna jump in the transfer portal.
And I wouldn't blame.

Speaker 3 (27:31):
Mom if he did. Yeah, that's the thing. Today, man, Like,
how do you balance like developing somebody till they're ready
and then giving them playing time so they don't leave
for a different school that would be willing to give them.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
There here's how you do it. You don't go to
the transfer portal and recruit over top of them.

Speaker 3 (27:44):
Which they've done. Which they've done. But I mean, can
you blame him No? I mean because you had it's
like one year trials every year. Now you got to
go get seniors that can give you the best chance
to win in the SEC and hopefully a freshman eventually
develops into a spot where they can contribute your hard
You ever gonna see true freshman playing at this point.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
I don't see like Stoops promising next year Cutter Bully
the starting job because you don't know what's going to
open up in the transfer portal. Let's say you tell Cutter, Okay,
next year is your year. You're gonna be our guy,
and then the transfer portal opens up and you got
potentially some.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
Guys that are interested.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
Well, I don't want to see arch manning, but like,
but let's just say a tops here quarterback who you
feel like gives you a better chance at winning and
the pressure's on here, right, the pressure's on Mark Stoopid.
You gotta win, especially depending on how this season goes,
next year could be really on the hot seat.

Speaker 3 (28:35):
And that's why publicly you say you welcome competition. You
don't hand anybody their job before they go out and
earn it. But that maybe behind closed doors you whisper
to cut her and say, hey, you're our guy. Just
keep progressing.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
Paul in Minnesota, Hey Paul, Hey guys, how's it going?
All right?

Speaker 4 (28:50):
Man?

Speaker 6 (28:50):
Thank you man?

Speaker 4 (28:52):
Tell you what a long time to talk.

Speaker 6 (28:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (28:55):
I don't envy these coaches at all in college sports
right now with a transfer portal and all the nil
good grief. I mean, what a what a tough thing
to juggle anyway, different note, I'm up in what's called
the ice box capital of the nation, up in as
far north Minnesota you can get, so I figured i'd

(29:16):
call and give you all some history about the coldest
fifty five degrees below zero negative is some of the
shirts up here are boasting that's how cold it's gotten
up here. Well we're I could.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
Yeah, no, thank you on that negative.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
I'll pass that, yeah, obviously not now. Now it's like nice.
It's about seventy degrees, but yeah, it's pretty sweet up here.
You go right across, you look right across the river
and it's Canada. So I'm going to head up to
Canada today and see what. I'm gonna have some poo team.
You ever heard of pootine?

Speaker 2 (29:51):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, we've had some of that. We
had it when we went to Canada for the KSR trip.

Speaker 3 (29:55):
It's good.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
Yeah, right, so it's kind of good. Huh.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
Yeah, I'm a big of it. I'd never had it before.
I didn't know what it was, never even heard of it.
And then I tried it and I go, oh.

Speaker 1 (30:05):
This is good.

Speaker 3 (30:05):
Fries and cheese curves, yeah, topped with hot brown gravy.

Speaker 4 (30:09):
I never had it, Paul, Oh, well, it's it's worth
it's worth giving a try. Usually it's at some state
fairs and stuff like that. Maybe maybe when the state
fair comes to town, somebody will bring some poutine down there.

Speaker 1 (30:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:22):
Hey, while we're talking about food in Minnesota, I've got
I know I probably asked you this last time, but
I've got to have an update on this chea cheese
that's supposed to be opening in Minnesota.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
I mean you think I'm joking, Kelly.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
On a weekly basis, I google Chea Cheese updates, and
I'm getting no updates other than the one we got
at the beginning of the year that said the first
one is going to open in the state of Minnesota.
And you're in Minnesota, Paul, so I feel like you're
at ground zero. You need to have some sort of
update for me on what's going on with Chee Cheese.

Speaker 4 (30:50):
Oh, believe me when I get it. You're the first
person that I'm going to talk to you. But I
think that it's going to be in the Mall of America.
I'm pretty sure that's the location, which is in bloom
which is in Bloomington.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
They said twenty twenty five. I mean we're running out
of toime here. I mean we've only got a few
more months. We can open it December thirty first, or
what I'm getting impatient.

Speaker 4 (31:10):
Well, maybe it'll open around Christmas. It'll be just a
great christ for.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
You know, if my birthday is on the twenty first,
that would be the greatest birthday present ever Chee.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
Cheese for the first time.

Speaker 6 (31:18):
In that would that's right?

Speaker 4 (31:20):
Well, I can't wait when you're up here for it.
It'll be a good time.

Speaker 3 (31:22):
Yep, looking forward to it. Paul, thank you for the
college negative fifty five. When we go up there for
our chee cheese visit.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Yeah, are you? Will you where you really go? Are
you just are you just saying that you'll go? Or
will you really go on a road trip to Minnesota
for chee cheese?

Speaker 3 (31:35):
Depends on the trip, Shannon, Let's just say, you know,
it kind of depends where it's at. If we're going
in December, we got to play around Kentucky basketball games.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
That's right.

Speaker 3 (31:42):
Obviously you need me in studio, but you know, we'll
figure something out.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
Little Fried ice Cream Jimmy Changa.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
I mean, I've never been so like, you're just gonna
have to expose me Chichi.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
Oh my gosh, you've never had chee cheese.

Speaker 2 (31:57):
Now your life is at life is about to change
when I take you to che cheese.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
Was it the pizza Hut buffet that we all yearned for?

Speaker 1 (32:06):
Oh, the pizza Ranch?

Speaker 3 (32:08):
No, not pizza ranch. I'm talking old school pizza Hut.

Speaker 1 (32:11):
Oh, the old school pizza Hut.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, I've been to that, Like I
that's kind of the timeframe of me being a nineties kid,
but never went to Chee cheese.

Speaker 2 (32:18):
So uh, which, by the way, that reminds me. Somebody
said they opened up a pizza ranch in Kentucky. Need
I need to confirm this, But somebody somebody sent me
a message saying that they've got a pizza ranch in Kentucky.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
Here it is right here.

Speaker 4 (32:34):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (32:34):
Do you believe a guy named Ben something? Ben sounds
like a trustworthy guy to me. I'd get my news
from Uncle Ben and Spider Man. I get my news
from Ben. He says, I'm not bragging, just let you know.
But Paduca now has a pizza ranch Paduka. All right,
all right, So speaking of updates, anybody listening in Paduca

(32:55):
or knows about the happenings of Paducah.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
I need to know. I need to confirm what Ben
sent me on a d M. Is it true? Is
there really a pizza ranch in Paduca?

Speaker 3 (33:06):
You got a road trip for pizza ranch?

Speaker 2 (33:08):
No, But if I'm ever close to Paducah, I'm gonna
make sure I stop into pizza ranch. Okay, it's like
a drewery in, Like I'm not just going to drive
the drewery in for the happy hour to get the
nachos and the dollar Margarita's. But if I'm in the area,
you better bet I'm gonna stop in there and make
a make a point to be there.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
That wasn't the hotel that your toilet was clogged in
when you got there?

Speaker 4 (33:28):
Was it?

Speaker 2 (33:28):
No, that was That's completely different. That was more head
Kentucky had a red roof in. Let's go to Jake.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
Let's Jake blend together.

Speaker 2 (33:38):
Are you good?

Speaker 1 (33:38):
What's up?

Speaker 4 (33:41):
Hey? Do you think do you think that Doint the
clown would be the would be the worst WWF gimmick
than than than red Rooster or no? Or would he
be up there or what?

Speaker 2 (33:51):
No, Dwint the clown was actually a good pink. Yeah
you know't know who Dwink is?

Speaker 3 (33:55):
Billy Nook the.

Speaker 2 (33:57):
Clown the wrestler. No, he's not that of these key Okay,
the worst gimmicks of all time in the WWF, I'm
glad you asked. I'm gonna say the bashed and Booger
had to be one of the worst. Ye, Duke the
dumpster Drosi, who was like a garbage man. And then

(34:17):
you had another one that skinner was like an alligator
like hunter or something. I don't even know what he was.
The Repo man was pretty bad. He would come out
and just repossess people's cars and stuff. Billy, So we're
talking about some of the worst gimmicks in WWF history.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
Some bottom of the barrel stuff.

Speaker 2 (34:35):
Oh yeah, like man Oh no, no, no, I got
a worse one. I got a worse one. Do you
remember Man Tar. He was supposed to be like half
man and half like goat or something, and he would
come he couldn't.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
He would.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
They made him wear this goat head out to the
ring and then they like they painted this like black paint.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
Around his eyes. Oh, I'm looking at him now, you're
looking at Mantar.

Speaker 3 (34:57):
Yeah, it's like the EyeBlack that I wore at that remote,
but put it on my eyebrows and go up my forehead.

Speaker 2 (35:03):
Yeah yeah, I'm sure I may be forgetting a couple
of other ones, but yeah, I think that that's definitely
definitely up there with the worst gimmicks of all time.

Speaker 1 (35:09):
Thanks for the college, Jake, Yes, sir, appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (35:14):
I love that old Mike Shaw having to be called booger.

Speaker 4 (35:17):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
The basht and Burger was I think definitely top five
worst gimmicks of all time had to be had to be.

Speaker 3 (35:25):
And doink the clown looks like a serial killer.

Speaker 2 (35:27):
Well yeah, he was like an evil clown. I thought
that was. It was like, you know it, the clown
in a wrestling ring.

Speaker 1 (35:34):
It was good stuff. Let's go to Michael.

Speaker 3 (35:35):
What's up? Michael?

Speaker 5 (35:36):
Hey, Michael, Hey, there's a pizza ranch in there.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
Is ring the bell. It's confirmed.

Speaker 6 (35:46):
All right, there you go.

Speaker 2 (35:49):
Oh okay, see, I don't even think the one in
uh where were we where we got the pizza ranch,
whatever state that was. I don't even think that one
had a ski ball. So we got pizza ra and
Paduca with ski ball.

Speaker 5 (36:02):
Oh yeah, they got some digital ski ball here. It's
on top of the line skyball. It's my it's my
kind of ski.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
Ball digital ski Well what does that even mean? Digital?
By the way, Oh yeah it was. But I don't know,
like you know, the old ski balls you cast them
and they have to go in the hole.

Speaker 3 (36:19):
But now it's like a digital ball top thing.

Speaker 1 (36:23):
I don't like that. No, I like the old school.
You know, if if we're doing like you know, your
carnival type games, arcade games, you can't have a digital. Yeah,
all right, well the pizza ranch is there though. That's
the main thing. Thank you for the call, Michael, appreciate you.
So there you go. Next time we're in Paduca, we're
pizza ranching.

Speaker 3 (36:40):
These carnies can't use digital ski ball machines, shann And
we got to stay with the.

Speaker 2 (36:45):
Original exactly, exactly all right, eight five nine twenty two
eighty seven.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
We'll get more of your phone calls coming up next.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
It is the KSR Appreciow final segment of the KSR
Apprecio eight five nine two twenty two eighty seven, taking
your calls talking worst off gimmicks of all time. You
said you had more coming on the text line, Billy.

Speaker 3 (37:03):
Yeah, yeah, I'm looking at one right now called the
Gobbledy Gooker.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Oh yeah, yeah yeah the Turkey.

Speaker 2 (37:08):
They had this, Okay, so this was like the Survivor series,
like ninety ninety one something like that. They had this
big giant egg up on stage that they were promoting
and hyping up for like a month straight and at.

Speaker 3 (37:20):
The Survivor Series.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
At the Survivor Series, you know, some people thought maybe
it was going to be Rick Flair, you know, maybe
some wrestler it turned out to be the Gobbledygooker, which
is basically a guy in a Turkey costume, and it
was that was probably well, I don't know, man, I
still thinks pretty bad. Man Tar is probably even worse.
But yeah, that's definitely one of them.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
Isaac Yankem, the evil dentist, that's kin.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
You know Cain, before he was Kane, he was Isaac Gyinkam,
the evil dentist. That's right.

Speaker 3 (37:50):
Yeah, that's pretty bad ones, there's no doubt.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
Before we get back to the phones, somebody asked, did
you guys see what was thrown on the court during
the Golden State Atlanta WNBA game on Friday night?

Speaker 1 (38:01):
Did you see this?

Speaker 3 (38:02):
I did? I did you know?

Speaker 2 (38:06):
In hockey, if a player scores three goals, it's a
hat trick and people throw their hats out on the
on the ice, and then sometimes people throw an octopus out.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
On the ice.

Speaker 2 (38:14):
And at the w NBA game, this has now happened
twice last weekend. Somebody has thrown I'll just say an
adult toy has been thrown out on the on the court.
And I don't know why it's happening. I mean, what
happens one time? You think it's just a one off.

Speaker 1 (38:31):
This has now happened twice in three days, and we
got a serial toy thrower at w NBA games, Billy.
But it has to stop. It has to come to
an end.

Speaker 3 (38:39):
Yeah, it does. The other ones that you mentioned are
all traditions, right, hat trick, you'll throw your hat octopus.
Even in Nashville they would throw a catfish on the ice.
This cannot become the WNBA's tradition.

Speaker 2 (38:49):
No, it's embarrassing. It's embarrassing the league. We can't have this.
They deserve better. But I did see it, and I did,
and I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 1 (38:57):
I'm gonnaugh. Of course I laughed.

Speaker 2 (38:59):
I laughed like a teenager. It's still funny to me.
Christian's up next, Hey Christian, what's up?

Speaker 4 (39:05):
Hey?

Speaker 5 (39:05):
Sanna?

Speaker 6 (39:06):
Uh?

Speaker 5 (39:07):
Just wanted to say there is a Tieterant and Paducah
all right, and then to confirm that as well. But then,
second off, I had a quick funny story about one
of our tvt Lost Familia athletes.

Speaker 2 (39:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (39:20):
So I went to h Murray State and DJ Burns
was there one of the years I offended and he
Dj Burns plays great defense, high energy guy. I was
really good at getting our our lost Millia team amped
up in the crowd. But he actually was late for
practice one day and side swiped my buddy's car. It's

(39:45):
a pretty funny story that he just uh he said, Yo,
I'm wait for practice.

Speaker 6 (39:50):
I gotta go.

Speaker 5 (39:51):
Uh. And so I wanted to spend that a round
for you guys and asked, h first off, fair or foul?
And then second off, have you ever been in a
hit and run accident?

Speaker 6 (40:03):
All?

Speaker 1 (40:03):
All right, thanks for the call, Christian.

Speaker 3 (40:06):
It didn't sound like he left his information.

Speaker 2 (40:08):
Yeah, I had a hit and run. I mean, like,
I'm not a legend anything.

Speaker 1 (40:11):
I'm just I'm just going off with Christian said, I've
never been in that situation before. Have you somebody hit you?

Speaker 3 (40:17):
No, never happened to me. But I think all hit
and run situations are foul, right, absolutely, even if you
are late for practice for a TVT game. I mean
maybe if it was a Final four game, I'd understand
a little bit more.

Speaker 2 (40:28):
No, no TV circumstance in which you can ever hit and
run somebody never.

Speaker 3 (40:34):
As a spoken for the.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
Kentucky Line, as a spoken for the Kentucky Highways safety here,
you can't do that.

Speaker 1 (40:40):
Hey, Chris, what's up?

Speaker 6 (40:42):
Hey? I heard while I was on hold this the
text machine named my all time terrible gimmick in the
WW was the goblet Goo.

Speaker 3 (40:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (40:51):
I think was actually Eddie Guerrero's brother, Hector.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
I think you're right about that. Yeah, yeah, but anybody
it was not a real turkey.

Speaker 6 (41:00):
Yeah. The guy that was Repo Man actually played Doinks
the clown. I think there were five different Doinks at
one time.

Speaker 1 (41:06):
And he was also smashed from demolition.

Speaker 6 (41:09):
Yeah. They had like Memphis used to have really terrible gimmicks,
but they had like the Christmas Creature, which was a
big Christmas.

Speaker 2 (41:16):
I think that was Kane. I think that was Kane
before he was the dentist. He has some really bad gimmicks.

Speaker 3 (41:21):
Over the years. Christmas Creature.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
They dressed him up like a like a Christmas tree
with garland and stuff wrapped around him.

Speaker 6 (41:29):
But there's been a lot of like w c W
