Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
We are live in Lexington and Wild Eggs.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
It is the KSR pre Show, Shannon the Dude and
Billy Rutledge eight five nine two eight Oho twenty two
eighty seven. Give us a call on the Clark's Puppet
Shop phone line. You can also send us a text
at five oh two two six five six six five six.
The KSR pre Show is always being brought to you
by Italics, fine Italian donning in Lexington and we are
here at Wild Eggs at nineteen twenty five.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
Justice is it Drives Street Road? What is it here? Drive?
Justice Drive? Which is the location?

Speaker 2 (00:31):
I showed up at last time thinking that we were
going to do a show here and I was at
the wrong location. But that's okay. I'm at the right
location today and you can join us out here. And
as I look to my left, I see my co
host Billy r Sports and uh an orange drink which
I assume is not orange crush, probably not tang If
I had to guess, it would be one of those

(00:52):
mimosas that you cannot hold your weight in. You're already
sipping a couple of them, So I just want you
to pace yourself. If that is in d Mimosa right here.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
It's great to see a Shannon. I've got two beverages
here on the table with me. I'm gonna drink this
coffee mostly for the pre show, though, make sure that
I can make it to the end of the show. Shannon,
Come on, that's what a good co host does, right.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Well, I mean you took two SIPs of mimosa actually
one sip, and you already started talking trash. I'm like, here,
he goes, well, you know he's wearing his two Mimosa
Billy shirt. I am the brand is strung, which I
believe you're the only person that owns one of those.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Not true.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
And then now you're already talking trash after one sip
of Mimosa's, so you know, like you you can't be
pounding Mimosa's out here.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
No, No, that's absolutely not what I would do, Shannon.
But it's you know, I'm just in a good mood
seeing you in person. You know, we do so many
shows remotely every Friday, we get to go out and
today we're here at Wild Eggs directly.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
In the sun.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
But gonna have some good food today and some good beverages.
We are, as you said, steering directly right right.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
This is also the location where I think the last
time we were here, Matt Jones forgot to wear pants,
and it is a chili morning out here. It actually
fills like fault's about forty five degrees. So do you
think that'll actually remember to wear pants today to the remote?

Speaker 3 (02:00):
Yeah, but I think he would still probably wear shorts.
It probably minus odds for him to wear shorts. Right,
We haven't shifted over to the absolute cold weather yet.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Not yet, Like have you shifted over to turning on
the heat yet? Have not?

Speaker 3 (02:11):
No, So the houses we already know three degrees. Yeah,
we already know. Your fiance controls the thermostat.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
For the most part.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
But no for all the part of most, not for
the most part. We know, you know, besides when I
change it in the middle of the night when she's sleeping. Yes,
for the most part, she controls it, and we keep
it at sixty five, Shannon, which is crazy sixty five,
which is insane sixty five. It is cold all the time,
But I have adapted like a lizard. There you go,
you can come out. You get some pumpkin pie pancakes.

(02:39):
They got the is it the apple pie mimosas apple
side or apple sider. No caramel apple, caramel apple. There
was some apple one there somewhere. Is that the one
that you have is not no when carmel apple one
is Actually the rim has the caramel on it, so
it is very tasty. Had that last time. I always
get the breakfast sandwich and the tater tot Shannon. That
has become my staple here at Wild Eggs. And since

(03:00):
I lived just right over there, I could probably walk
over there. So I go with the bacon, egg and cheese,
or I guess it's not bacon, egg and cheese just
if there's an egg in it, because it's an omelet.
It's bacon, bacon and cheese omelets. And then the tater touch.
You can't go wrong with those, like they are the absolute.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Caso with them. It is great. I haven't been to
their new location yet, but today here at Hamburg yep.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
So today we will also be once again giving away
Adam Sandler tickets.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Oh very good.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
And you know it's Friday, we're at Wild Eggs. I'm
feeling good. Normally I wouldn't do this, but I'm trying
to figure out how we are going to give away
these tickets today. And I don't know, I've never really
seen Adam Sandler live in person. I mean, I've seen
his special that he did on Netflix, but you know,
he plays music, he sings songs, and he occasionally tells jokes. Now,
we've done this before in the past, and I was

(03:46):
very against it, very much against.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
But it is a Friday. Like I said, I am
in a good mood.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
So I think the way we're going to do it
today on the calls is the person who has the
best joke will win Adam Sandler tickets.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Remember, you got to keep it, you know, Pg. Thirteen.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
We are on the radio here, so you can't go
you know, you can't be a dirty joke on the radio.
That will get you disqualified. But best joke who calls
in today and you and I will be the judge
and we'll decide who gets the Adam Sandler tickets based
off of your terrible jokes.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
That's a lot of trust in the audience, Shannon. You know,
we normally say leave the comedy to us, but now
you're welcoming the jokes here on a Friday edition of
the CaSR prec.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
I know they're all going to be terrible. See, part
of it is like they're so bad, it's funny.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
You know.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
You hear jokes that are just so terrible, and you're like,
that's you don't even know what to do but laugh
because it's so bad. So that's really what I'm expecting
to get today on calls. All right, good, eight five, nine,
twenty two eighty seven. Now, before we go any farther,
I think we have to acknowledge the news that came
in overnight that Sister Jean has passed away at the
age of one hundred and six years old. Sister Jean,

(04:53):
of course, the loyal of Chicago Chaplain, basically the team mascot,
became a household name across America. Back in twenty eighteen,
when Loyla Chicago's basketball team went to the Final Four,
there was a Twitter account that may have taken off
for a few days that was, you know, all the rage.
But I was really sad to see that Sister Jean
passed away at one hundred and six. She just retired

(05:16):
a few weeks ago, and I guess I had to
step away because of some health issues and passed away
at one hundred and six. But you got to talk
about somebody that lived a full life. I mean, she
just wrote a memoir, released a book at one hundred
and four years old, just a couple of years ago.
And imagine, you know, not really having that level of
fame until you're what ninety nine, ninety eight years old.

(05:38):
You know, you lived your entire life, you probably lived
a you know, relatively quiet life. And then everybody falls
in love with Sister Jeane across America. You know, she's
out there and supporting the team and everybody just you know,
she's getting so much television time that I think a
lot of people are like, all right, enough already of
Sister Jean. I could not get enough of Sister Jean.
But sad to see that she's passed away.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
Yeah, asolutely is sad.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
I mean I think of that that final four run
that Loyola made, and she would she became an icon,
the face of that program, and you're right, had some
crazy tweets back in the day, was an entertainer. I mean,
you got something right there, Shannon. Sorry, I got a
little distracted there. But at the same time, uh, thinking
about her family, everybody impacted by that death. Maybe there'll
be a h is a reveal from Shannon. Maybe at

(06:24):
all what I mean, maybe Sister Jean's Twitter account, all
the great tweets that she's had in the past, anything
you want to say.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
About No, I mean, I just I think she's a
you know, very innovative lady. She's a very witty with
her with her tweets.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
Okay, today is not the day though, No, No, I.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Mean if she can't tweet now, you need to have
Sister Jean tweeting from heaven.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
No, I don't. I don't know how the WiFi is
up there. That's not what I mean.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
But at the same time, very very sad news, Shannon,
and I hate to hear that Sister Jean passing away today.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
So of course tomorrow night is big blue madness. And
I understand that we may have a caller later on
today on KSR. This is gonna be able to talk
a little bit about that.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
Oh yeah, you know this news.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, Mark Pope will be calling in later on today
on KSR and looking forward to hearing from Coach Pope.
That's tomorrow night at six o'clock on the SEC network
SEC New Work Plus. You gotta have the I guess
the streaming will be on there. Hopefully we'll see a
little bit more of Big Blue Madness in the actual
action that we did at Pro Day, because there was
very little of that. What do you think we'll see

(07:22):
at Big Blue Madness? And I've been told there's some
sort of surprise maybe in the works. Do you have
any insight on our guests maybe as to what the
surprise could be?

Speaker 3 (07:30):
No insight actually looking forward to Kentucky football being on
a bye this week will give me a Saturday off,
but good planning by the basketball program to do it
on the weekend football is off.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
You know, probably see.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
Some half assed dancing, Shannon, That's probably what we'll see
from the players.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
That's my favorite part of the guys that really don't
want to dance, but they feel obligated too, because like
the first guy came out and did a dance, and
you can tell the ones that are like really shy
and like I really don't want to be here right now,
and they're they're completely out of their comfort level. That
would probably be me, to be honest with you, like
I don't want to be up there, like, you know,
doing my little shimmy or whatever. Because some of those

(08:05):
guys are actually good dancers, but most of them are not.
Most of them are terrible.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
That's right, And you're somewhat required to dance now after
John Wall and everybody made it a thing. But you know,
I think this is an event that's gonna have a
little bit of juice, right. I mean, the fan fest
I think is perfect. It's a free event that people
can go to before Big Blue Madness. And if you
were able to get tickets, I'm sure you're excited for
this one. You know, expectations are high, as they always are,

(08:30):
but with Mark Pope in year two, I got to
think that this place is it's going to be a
fun time on Saturday.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
You could hear in Mark Pope's voice and the press
conference that he did, you know, forty five minute press
conference a couple of days ago for Kentucky Basketball Media Day,
that he is excited about this team. I don't feel
like that he thinks there's a lot of weaknesses on
this team. He is, I think, sort of plug the
holes on the deficiencies that they had in last year's
team on that roster, and I feel like they are

(08:55):
just deep all the way down to you know, the
twelve thirteenth man on the bench. We were talking yesterday
about somebody is gonna have to get less minutes. I mean,
you've only got five positions out there on the floor.
It's a good problem to have if you're a Mark
Pope with all of this talent, but somebody is inevitably
going to be left behind. My pick was probably Malicamarno,
which is surprising because he's my guy. No, he is

(09:17):
my guy, but I feel like, you know, at the
five position, Brandon Garrison, as long as he stays healthy,
is probably going to eat up most of those minutes,
and we haven't really heard a whole lot about him.
Cam Williams is another guy that we haven't heard a
whole lot about. But I think even Richie Farmer though,
said that he was a guy that maybe surprised him
a little bit in practice from what he saw.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
Yeah, that's somebody that NBA evaluators are very interested in.
I would have thought Jasper Johnson, but Matt made a
good point. He's making a lot of nil money. It's
hard to keep guys off the court when you're demanding
that much money. But you know, one of the questions
we had about is Mark Pope, how good can he recruit?
He goes out there and gets guys in the portal
like Aberdeen and Mo Diabote. He's able to get Kentucky

(09:55):
guys like Malachi Moreno and Jasper Johnson. And now you're
on the you know, the cusp of getting a Stokes
who set his decision date later in October, and even
the guy I gave a salute to at a pro
media day the other day, Rippy. So I mean, he's
obviously a shoe in to come to Kentucky now. So
it just continues to build that excitement. And like you said,
the depth is going to be really important, not to

(10:17):
just get different guys in, but to play full court
defense every now and then to improve that defense.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
That was so bad at times.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
And while there may not be a Kobe Bryan this year,
I think overall you'll see a much better product.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
Mark Pope also recruited abroad. He went out he got
Yellovich and we heard the story about a visach trying
to help Yellovich get accustomed to eating American food, and
we were trying to figure out what was a visage
eating that was upsetting his stomach, because he said he
just could not get accustomed to eating American food. Then
it came out earlier this week that the reason that

(10:49):
a Visage had stomach issues is because he was going
across campus every night and eating Papa John's pizza.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
Papa Joe.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
Do you think that these guys are you know, great athletes,
and they are, they are, but you would I think
that the nutrition would match, you know, the level of
commitment that they have to being a basketball player. You know,
the part of that is off the court, being disciplined
and eating healthy. And I know these guys are running
their butts off, so you know, you could eat an
entire large Papa John's pizza and burn all the calories

(11:16):
off in a couple of hours of practice. But I
was surprised to see that the reason that Visa was
having stomach issues is because he was eating Papa John's
pizza every night.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
You think, you know, I don't have knowledge on this,
but you think at a program like Kentucky, it's, you know,
so important to get the health of these guys right
that they would give them just a shake and breakfast, lunch,
and dinner every single day. Maybe they snuck in a
cheap meal if Papa John's pizza got the best of
Big Z. Appreciate him giving the advice to Yellovich. You say, hey,
stay away from the Papa Yeah, he may upset the

(11:47):
stomach a little bit.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
It was the peppercinies. I was gonna ask you.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
Those things are good though, Like I when I go there,
I ask for like extra peppercinis and like load it up.

Speaker 3 (11:54):
You know, Yeah, no, thanks on the peppercinis. But if
you're ordering a little Papa John's is at the work Shannon,
are you simple cheese and pepperoni?

Speaker 1 (12:01):
What are you gonna get?

Speaker 4 (12:02):
I am?

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Yeah, I'm a simple guy, a simple man when it
comes to pizza. Just give me pepperoni and we're good.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:08):
My life was revolutionized with the stuff crust stuff like
I hardly go, don't go stuff crust.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
Well, you know, if Visage had just come out to
Wild Eggs, he would have been perfectly fine and he
would have loved it. He could eat out here. You
can eat healthy out here too, if you want to.
At Wild Eggs. It's breakfast, brunch and lunch with the bar.
And we're here at nineteen twenty five at Justice Drive.
Come on out and see us We've got some stuff
to give away later on. We've got a big Wild
Eggs basket, gift basket to give away. We got some

(12:34):
gift cards to give away later on as well. You
do have to buy an entree though, so you can't
just come out here and just free load and expect
to get a free basket to walk away with. But
if you order an entree while you're out here, you
can get a raffle ticket and we'll draw tickets for
later on to give away some free stuff.

Speaker 3 (12:48):
Get an entree, maybe get him Momosa, have a good
time on a Friday. Get your weekend started a little.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
Bit early here.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Did you send the text off to tell the guys
to bring stunglasses because I told you you.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
Shouldn't do that. I did not.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
I said, don't tell them, let them figure it out
for themselves like I had to, and you had to.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
I am GM billy. Yeah, so you know I want
to communicate, that's my job, but you told me not to.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Well, here's the thing. By ten o'clock that sun is
going to move. It's gonna move over to the side,
and we're gonna be fine. It's just during the nine
o'clock hour.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
Wait, and see we'll see.

Speaker 2 (13:17):
All right, we'll take your calls eight five nine two
twenty two eighty seven. We want to hear your best
joke throughout the show for your shot to win free
tickets to Adam Sandler. Now, when you call in, excuse me,
I also want you to have some sort of point,
So don't just call tell a joke and hang up.
So if you got you know something else that you
want to add to the show, call in with that
plus your best joke for your shot to win Adam

(13:38):
Sandler tickets and we'll get the answer the the winner
at the end of the show today. All right, we'll
take a break, we'll be right back. We're live here
at Wild Eggs. It is the KSR Pre Show here
at Wild Eggs and Lexington Breakfast, brunch and lunch with
the bar Shading the Dude and Billy Rutledge. We're going
to take your calls in just a minute. Eight five
nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven. You had

(13:58):
somebody right in and say, do you think that Ryan
Lemon just found out the news about Sister Jane passing
about listening to the KSR pre Show.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
I would say probably so, yeah, not only that he's
probably in the shower when he was listening. As well
as we know that Ryan gets all his news from
the KSR pre Show still can't believe the presidential election
was broken to him.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
I mean, you know, you think that you and I
at nine o'clock in the morning really aren't breaking news.
But to people like Oh, I don't know Ryan, who
doesn't pay attention to the news and listens to the
KSR pre Show, I guess first thing when he wakes up,
actually learned who the new president was based off of
you and I talking. Look, Kentucky newsmakers, what we do,
and we just saw Josiah. So Ryan, if you're looking

(14:39):
for your son, he's here at Wild Eggs and come
on out and join us.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
I was doing a great job. Brought my sister here
a year or so ago. Josiah was working and she
was like.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
Who is that? Oh really? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (14:51):
No, wouldn't that be weird? What if those two, you know,
ended up in a relationship and married. That would be
something that would I have to be related to Ryan Limon.

Speaker 1 (14:59):
You would be I don't even know what that would be.

Speaker 3 (15:02):
Oh man, I can only imagine thanksgivings would be fun, no.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Doubt about it. Hilly Wood. Did you watch any of
the Dodgers Phillies game last night? Yeah? I was at
Double Dogs right over there.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
Got to watch a little sports watch Dodgers Phillies the
Thursday night football game.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
What a crazy ending for yes game.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
Yes, game goes to eleven innings. Dodgers ended up loading
the bases two outs, bottom of the eleventh ground ball
back to the pitcher. Looked like it could be just
a routine out for the pitcher, PfP pitcher filding practice.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
We had to do that all the time at Bellerman.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
He kept the pitcher kind of fumbles with the ball
and then I think it just at a moment of panic,
tries to throw the ball at home to force you know,
get the third out and get the force out at home.
He had plenty of time. He still could have picked
the ball up and thrown at the first base. Who yeah, yeah,
And he tries to throw it home. He overthrows the catcher.
It wouldn't have mattered anyway because it was just too

(15:51):
late at that point. But the Dodgers advanced to the NLCS,
and I kind of feel bad for the Phillies pitcher
just a little bit.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Did you have any empathy at all for him?

Speaker 3 (16:01):
Well, I wanted both teams to lose if possible, the
Dodgers's I mean, it's just if those both of those
teams could lose, that'd be great. But at the same time,
you know, as everybody reacted right after he threw it,
he just kind of like fell over like that.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
Like you definitely you're human. You can't help but feel
bad for the guy.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
Maybe it was because I was a pitcher and I
kind of just like, oh man, you know there, you
be there.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
Well, they got a little rattle, didn't know to go
to big moment. It just sails it over the cap.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
Well, like I said, even if he had thrown a
perfect strike, it was too late. He had he had
plenty of time to throw the ball to first, but
just just panicked and uh. Well, the Dodgers move on
to the NLCS and later tonight it is the Tigers
and Mariners in Game five. Do you realize, Billy, there
is a chance that we could have two teams in
the World Series who have never won a World Series before.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
I love that. Do you know those two teams?

Speaker 3 (16:51):
Is it the Mariners? That's one's who's playing the Dodgers
in the NL Championship. Well, we don't know yet. He
got the Cubs and the Brewers, So Brewers, that's right,
that's right, those are the two teams. So I don't
know the last time.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
If that happens, I'm sure's Corey Price or somebody could
look it up. But the uh, I like how we
depend on him for everything that we don't know. Just hey, Corey,
look it up for us. But I don't know the
last two that the last time that two teams played
that had never won a World Series playing each other
in the World Series, Well, that's.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Good for baseball, you know.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
It's just if the Dodgers are gonna win every single time,
I think that takes away the common fan a lot
of time.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
So that's good. That's good.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
Yeah, I'm tired of the Dodgers versus the Yankees. Believe me,
broke promo code KSR on DraftKings. If you're a new customer,
you bet five dollars. You're throwing that promo code when
you sign up. If your first bet hits, you're gonna
ge two hundred dollars in bonus bets, and you can
bet on baseball you can bet on college football. You
can bet on darts if you want to. That's the
cool thing about DraftKings. I'm sitting there late at night,
there's a game on. I don't care who wins. But

(17:45):
then all of a sudden, you go, let's go to
Draft Kings and throw ten dollars on the home team,
and all of a sudden, now you care about the game.
That's how it works with Draft Kings sportsbook, same game parlays,
live bets, player props.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
You get fast and easy payouts. Again.

Speaker 2 (17:57):

Speaker 3 (18:18):
If I could bet on a future right now on Draftings,
I would bet for the Tush Push to get outlawed
In the next NFL offseason. They ran it four straight
plays last night, and I think the public perception is
really starting to change on the play, shann See.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
I think a lot of people kind of liked it
at first. I don't like it.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
That's the Eagles thing, right, the tush push. Yeah, so
I'm not a fan of it. You know, the Packers
were trying to get it outlawed, and it's now just
what they do when they get in a situation where
they need just a you know, a couple of yards
or you know, yard or two, they go with the tush.

Speaker 3 (18:49):
Pubs to do it four straight times last night on
the primetime stage. I think that this is going to
be the turning point of the public perception of that play.
It's just you can't have that on TV, Shanna, back
seat quarterback sneak.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
It's it's boring. It's boring.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah, But I don't I don't know that that is
going to be what's going to uh make them change
the rule. But I'm with you. I think it needs
to be out to take it out, Get it out
of here, get out of here, all right? Eight five
nine two eight twenty two eighty seven. Who's up first?

Speaker 1 (19:15):
Liam? Jason is up first? Hey, Jason Jayson. Hello, all right,
do you have a joke.

Speaker 5 (19:24):
Yes, it's one I wrote myself. Not the best, but
I mean it's good. So what do emo lumberjacks yell
when they cut a tree down?

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Oh? Boy, I'm almost afraid to even ask. Well, you
opened it up, Shan, Yeah, we did, all right? What
do they say?

Speaker 5 (19:40):
Timber tim there's.

Speaker 3 (19:46):
A there's a spattering of laughs out there. This is
exactly what I was exist. This is what you wanted.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
This is exactly what I thought we were gonna get.

Speaker 6 (19:54):
At least it's an original.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
There you go, there you go. You know what, maybe
the next one will land. Just just keep writing those jobs.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
Sorry, that's all right? Yeah, all right, do you have
anything else?

Speaker 4 (20:05):
Uh?

Speaker 7 (20:05):
Yeah, so real quick.

Speaker 5 (20:06):
The point I guess I've always wanted to call it
in Shannon's voice is always resonated with my brain and
work in healthcare. Long story short, I put two and
two together. I think I may have worked with your
father if your father ever worked in healthcare, because probably
ten fifteen years ago, if he didn't just tell me now,
But I remember a guy whose son worked in radio.

(20:28):
Your voice reminds me of his, and we used to
talk UK basketball all the time, and it was at
a certain Norton facility. Right, I could be totally wrong.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
But no, you're right.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
My dad did work in healthcare for about I think
thirty years, So yeah, okay.

Speaker 5 (20:43):
I think I think it was him. In late late
two thousand and eight ish twenty ten. We would tell
I would take my break and watch UK games and
he'd be over in that area, like basically stock. I
don't want to say too much information, but yeah, yeah,
your voice reminds me of him.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Well, I don't know. I guess my dad's got a
good radio voice. Maybe my dad should have gone into
radio instead of healthcare. Right, all right, thanks for the
college Jason.

Speaker 1 (21:09):
You appreciate it. Take care yep. All right.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
One thing we didn't get the touch on that happened
over the last couple of days is that Louisville got
a pro sports team. You see this, the Lovell Kings,
named after King Louis and they're going to be a
part of the UFL, which is basically the I guess
the result of the merger between the XFL and the USFL.

(21:32):
And they're going to be playing their games at Lynn
Family Stadium, which is where Louisville City FC plays. So
will you go over to Louisville to watch any UFL
Louisville Kings football.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
I like to think I will.

Speaker 3 (21:44):
I am a supporter of bringing a professional team to
this state, and I think this is the first natural
step before Kentucky where to get maybe something bigger than this.
Good friends with Eric Wood, who is a big part
of this as well in the operation in Louisville. There
is a need, I mean, with all the injuries that
we see early on in the NFL season for kind
of a developmental league. College sports has changed a lot
with nil in the transfer portal. So fingers crossed this

(22:07):
is a success. But you know the UFL. Do you
watch the UFL?

Speaker 1 (22:10):
No?

Speaker 2 (22:11):
But I will now though I don't know where i'll
watch it, I'm sure it's on the box somewhere, and
they're green. Their colors are green. So I feel like
we can do there you go, so you sign me
up by that's rdy, All right, We'll take more of
your phone calls and more of your jokes for your
shot to win. Adam Sandler tickets coming up eight five,
nine two, eight oh twenty two eighty seven back it
is the KSR pre show. We're live at Wild Eggs
nineteen twenty five, Justice Drive, Shannon the Dude, and Billy Rutledge.

(22:32):
You could come out at Wild Eggs breakfast, brunch and
lunch with the bar. And we got an answer on
the last time two teams played in the World Series
who have never won a World Series? Who's from Corey Price?
Of course, we need to like start putting him on
the payroll. It was nineteen eighty the Phillies versus the Royals. Wow,
eighteen eighty.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
It's been a while, so yes, hopefully we see a
little history in the baseball playoffs.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
So Kentucky football is off this week with the second
bye week. I hate that they have a second by
and we know that Kentucky football has not done well
coming off of a bye week. You know, I was
looking at, you know, the games coming up this weekend,
and I noticed Indiana, Indiana football number seven in the country.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
Dude.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
And when I look at Indiana and how terrible they
used to be, Billy and Vanderbilt on how terrible they
used to be, and both of these teams are in
the top twenty, I can't help but think if those
teams can do it. Why can't Kentucky football. Why can't
Kentucky football figure it out? When you got Indiana in
the top ten and Vandy in the top twenty.

Speaker 3 (23:32):
Well, let me give you the formula for what Indiana's doing.
And one in this really isn't part of it. But
they have a quarterback that could be the first quarterback
drafted in the next year. He is that good to
NFL evaluators. But here's the formula to do what Indiana did. One,
you gotta take a chance. You got to take a
chance on an up and coming coach, not just somebody
that's incumbnent that's done it before. Kirk Signetti came from

(23:52):
jmnew and was doing things a different way. He also
brought his entire roster over from JMU. He was able,
like he was able to keep his continuity and bring
all those guys over. And the second thing that I
think that they did was is their schedule. They cut
the tough middle games out of it. They canceled a
series with Louisville in the middle of it because they
know the most important thing is winning. So one you

(24:15):
need to have to you have to be willing to
take a chance on an up and coming coach and
two Shannon, would you go so far as to cut
games like the Louisville game out of your schedule?

Speaker 1 (24:23):
No, not the Loisll game.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
I could be talked into cutting other games out, but
not the Lovell game. It is your biggest rival. It
means something to this fan base to play Louisville. It
doesn't matter if it's football, basketball, baseball, water polo checkers,
it doesn't matter. You absolutely, if you have the opportunity,
you play Lovell and if you don't, well, Lovel fans
are just gonna have that to hang over your head
for the rest of time, saying that your ran scared

(24:46):
because you didn't feel confident enough that you could beat
Lobelle that you had to take them off your schedule.
So I think, under no circumstances do you lose the
Lovell game.

Speaker 7 (24:53):
Right.

Speaker 3 (24:53):
You can point and call Indiana cowards, but they also
made the playoff last year. They're also number seven in
the country right now. So it's just so it's a
little bit of give and take and what you want
from the situation.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
We were talking about the possible scenarios that could play
out for this football team. Imagine that you finish five
and seven, but you get a marquee win. Let's say
they beat a Texas or maybe a Tennessee. Get the
five and seven, I think you gotta hang on to
Mark Stoupis for another year now. Obviously, if he goes
three and nine, you're out. Yeah, four and eight probably out.

(25:26):
But if you get the five, or even if you
do get the four, what if you got the four
and you ended on like we were talking about yesterday,
of two or three game win streak. You know, you
beat Vandy, you beat Louisville. Yeah, I think that's probably
enough just to keep them around.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
I think four and he's the sentiment is probably still
he needs to leave. But five, I think you really
are in a conundrum there because you've won, You've beaten
probably one or two good teams at that point, hopefully
Louisville is one of them. So that momentum builds on
the end of the season, depending on how you look
at it. If you don't want the guy here, you
hope they mean he doesn't win, but it'll be interesting
to see because I mean six and six, he's definitely

(26:01):
staying right.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
Oh yeah, for sure. And I only said this half jokingly. Yesterday,
But I could totally see this being a scenario that
plays out. Let's say you get to five. Let's say
you've beat Tennessee and you lose to Tennessee Tech. Okay,
saying like Tennessee Tech, say what you will. I know
they've played a light schedule compared to SEC football, but
this team is scoring in the seventies. Even if Tennessee Tech,

(26:24):
let's say, scored twenty eight. What if I told you
that we're gonna play Tennessee Tech and Tennessee Tech is
gonna have twenty eight points?

Speaker 1 (26:33):
Are we winning that game? Come on? Yes?

Speaker 3 (26:35):
I mean that is a different quality player in the trenches.
You believe the offense can score over twenty eight point
two against a team like Tennessee Tech that's not in
Division one. Yeah, there's just a talent difference when it
comes to those teams, and they're they're scoring a lot
of points, but they're beating up on some bad teams.
So I'm hoping that Bush Hampden can find his bag
to score more than twenty eight points against Tennessee tex

(26:57):
By the way, Bush Hamdon is still the offensive coordinaria
those Rivers that we were talking about on Monday, saying
he would be gone on Tuesday.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
They were just rumors. Yeah, let's go to the calls.
Eight nine twenty two eighty seven. Who's up next, Liam, Kevin?

Speaker 1 (27:09):
Kevin? Hey, keV, give us your best joke? What do
you got?

Speaker 4 (27:14):
What do you call the.

Speaker 7 (27:15):
Sweat between two Tennessee fans having?

Speaker 1 (27:19):
Oh my god, I said you got to keep it clean?

Speaker 8 (27:21):
Here?

Speaker 1 (27:21):
Come on, now? What is it?

Speaker 5 (27:24):
Relatives?

Speaker 4 (27:25):
Humidity?

Speaker 1 (27:31):
Kevin? I think we've got well.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
I mean, there's only been two jokes that is, without
a doubt, the best that's gonna be tough to beat.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
Told the line, but did pull it off? No pun intended? Yeah,
all right? What else you got, Kevin?

Speaker 5 (27:44):
Hey? Yeah, I just wondered if you heard it?

Speaker 4 (27:46):
Oh taga or away? Oh take it?

Speaker 7 (27:49):
Oh way, he's gonna take place in big blue Maness.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
I have not heard anything on that. I don't know.
Have you heard anything? I have not? Yeah, I would
assume so, but don't have any news on that. Thanks
for the call. All right, yep, yep, Let's let's go
to another call. Who's up next, Adele Adele, Hello, Hello,
it's me you're looking full? Hello Adele?

Speaker 8 (28:17):
Hello?

Speaker 9 (28:20):
All right?

Speaker 1 (28:21):
Doing good? You have a joke for us for the
shot to win Adam Sandler tickets.

Speaker 9 (28:25):
All right, I do have.

Speaker 8 (28:26):
A just okay. A woman gets on a bus with
her baby and the bus driver says, oh, it's the
ugliest baby I have ever seen. And the woman, fuming,
walks to the back of the bus and sits down.
She tells the man next to her that driver just

(28:47):
insulted me. And the man said, honey, you go up
there and you tell him all go on, I'll hold
your hairless cat.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Oh that was good. They're getting better.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
I didn't have much hope for the first one, but
they're getting better. All right, Adele, thanks for the call.
Do you have anything else you want to add? No, okay, okay,
all right, there you go. Thank you, Adele.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
It sounded like I was the bus driver there saying
somebody's got an ugly baby or something like that.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
So far though, the second caller there, that's gonna be tough,
tough to top.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
Yeah, no doubt.

Speaker 3 (29:25):
Uh, Shannon, Quickly, before you get back to the phones,
I got a story for you. Remember we talked about
Lebron James and the second decision that was incoming for him.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
Right well, we called it it was an ad.

Speaker 3 (29:34):
It wasn't for Amazon, it was for a Hennessy drink
that he's releasing. But a fan is suing Lebron James
because he thought the decision too meant he was going
to announce his retirement, so he bought two tickets to
the Lakers Calves game this year and spent eight hundred
and sixty five dollars. Well, now he's suing Lebron James
and Small Clams Court claiming that he was duped by

(29:56):
the ad and wants his money back. Do you think
he should get his money?

Speaker 2 (29:59):
Absolutely not. I mean that is this fan's fault for
being an idiot and assuming that. You know, when you
assume that, you assume, you make an ass out of.

Speaker 3 (30:11):
An ass of himself by going so far as just
suing Lebron over being duped over this ad.

Speaker 2 (30:16):
I mean, I mean you and I called it from
a mile away, right, We knew this was going to
be some sort of ad. You even compared it to
Snoop Dogg saying he was gonna stop smoking. And I
think it was obvious that it was an AD. And
there's no judge that's going to take that case. No, no, no,
there's no way he gets that money.

Speaker 3 (30:32):
But you can't fix stupid Channon, And sometimes there's a
lot of a lot out there.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
I do wonder if Lebron will hear about this and
maybe just reach out and give him some free tickets.

Speaker 1 (30:40):
In I hope he doesn't.

Speaker 2 (30:41):
Yeah, because you're you're whining about that, You're exactly you're
enabling people to do that.

Speaker 1 (30:46):
You go, oh, well, I was expecting. Well, no, he
didn't say I faught tickets. I want to refund. Yeah,
too bad.

Speaker 3 (30:51):
Yeah, he probably won't even playing that grant game, the
load management.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
He's on there. All right, let's go to another call.
Who's up next? Liam? Doing good? Doing good? What do
you got for us, gentlemen?

Speaker 7 (31:01):
I'm doing good. Hope you're doing well.

Speaker 4 (31:03):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (31:03):
First of all, just want to make sure that what
happens on the pre show stays on the pre show.
This doesn't go to any other productions.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
Correct, that's that's correct. Yes, great.

Speaker 7 (31:14):
Shannon, Billy and Matt walk into a bar. Shannon orders too,
goes up to the bartender. Bartender says, what do you have?
Shannon says, A couple of beers, Giess, a couple of beers.
Walks away, Billy walks up, says I'll take a couple
of mimoses. Bartender says, yeah, I bad to hear you
go give these Mimosas Billy grabs some walks away, Matt
walks up to the bar, Bartender goes, hey, why the

(31:36):
long face?

Speaker 1 (31:41):
You call them? That a horse face? We're taking shots
at I see.

Speaker 7 (31:45):
Not at all. I don't think Matt looks like that
at all. It was just popped in my head when
you announced a stupid contest. Yeah, so, what's one of
those stupid old time you know, bar jokes I could
tell and incorporates Shannon and Billy, and it kind of
fell into last second, and it doesn't matter because I
vote for Kevin and the relative humidity anyway.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
Yeah, well that was definitely stupid, but we appreciate it. Yeah,
thank you, I appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
See, this is a quasi of good contest.

Speaker 1 (32:15):
We're we're getting the people out here laughing.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
That's what matters there, Above the expectation that I had,
at least when the show started coming up this weekend,
Tomorrow's gonna be playing Alice Blue Gown's gonna be playing
a Quick the goat Man Festival at Popelick Park, which
we've talked about.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
Yeah, and uh, speaking of you know, Halloween related stuff,
did you see this story about a guy in Powell County, Kentucky.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
Do you know this story?

Speaker 2 (32:39):
And I love, you know, driving around and looking at
everybody's Halloween decorations and everything. But there's a guy in
Powell County, Kentucky who was arrested because he had a
display in his front yard with bodies that were in
like body bags, and he had each one of them
labeled different things, so he had like judge on one
of them and he would have like, I think one

(33:01):
of them was mayor and one of them was here's
the thing, zoning manager. What do you got to guess
the zoning manager? You're gonna put the zoning manager in
a body bag. Turns out, after you look into the
story a little bit further, this guy apparently from Powell County,
I guess hit a zoning violation. I don't even know
how that happens. I don't know how you have a

(33:22):
zoning violation. I don't know how that works. But this
guy ends up in jail because they said it was
terroristic threatening and they felt threatened by the fact that
this guy had these different labels on these bodies in
his front yard. Billy, the guy's being held on five
thousand dollars bond, which I felt like a little stiff
just for your halloween decoration. Five thousand dollars bond. But

(33:45):
do you think that you should be able to do
something like that where you can I mean, he didn't
have their their actual name, but he had their titles
on these decorations.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
Do you think that somebody should go to jail for that?

Speaker 3 (33:55):
Yeah, that's interesting because I'm sure it's right on the
line there. You can have halloween decorations, you can look
like you have bodies in your front yard, but can
you call out the zoning manager who you've been?

Speaker 2 (34:05):
That's the thing with the town, the zoning manager, and
you think I'm just the zoning manager. Nobody cares about me.
I'm just kind of back here working my office job,
and next thing you know, you end up in somebody's
Halloween decorations.

Speaker 3 (34:15):
It's not personal, you're just not zoning the correct way
and I've got to manage this zone. But if you
make it a little personal when your Halloween decorations are
calling me out like that? So if I'm in the
zoning manager's shoes. Yeah, I can't. You can't let that happen.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
I think it's a little bit different if you had
their actual name on the body and that's like a
list or what because mayor it could be mayor for anything, right,
I don't think it actually said the guy's last name,
like Mayor Rutledge on it, right. Yeah, but he is
in jail because of his Halloween decorations. They made him
take him down. And if you got five thousand dollars
you want to pony up and get this guy out

(34:50):
of jail in Powell County, I'm sure you would appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (34:52):
See, this is not where I expected that story to go.
That seems very personal. That guy's got a vendetta against somebody,
of course, has made his Halloween stuff out of it.
I've also I've seen people like get the police called
on them because their decorations are just so realistic, you know.
Like there was one that I saw online where it
looked like somebody was hanging from like the gutter or
the roof, and they had police come out all day
because people who just kept coming by, Look, oh there's somebody.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
On the roof.

Speaker 2 (35:15):
If it's in the middle of like, you know, July,
and that's happening. Okay, maybe maybe you look into it
a little bit when it's October and you see those
arms coming out of the ground, you realize those aren't
actual bodies being buried in somebody's front yard.

Speaker 1 (35:28):
There's somebody in this guy's front yard. No, it's actually
just Halloween.

Speaker 10 (35:33):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
There's that street in Louisville that has all the decorations
Cross Avenue. Yeah, I've been on that a few times
left seeing that. You know, people do go all out
for Halloween. A five nine two twenty two eighty seven.
We got one final segment coming up next. We'll take
more of your jokes and we will pick a winner
for the Adam Sandler tickets. We're live at Wild Eggs
here in Lexington on Justice Drive. We'll be right back.
It is the KSR pre Show. All right, welcome back,

(35:54):
final segment of the KSR Pre Show. We are live
Justice Drive Eggs eight five nine twenty two eighty seven.
We'll go back take more jokes in just a minute.
But let me tell you that next Friday you could
come have lunch with the KSR crew. We're going to
be at white Castle on East Rentald Road from twelve
thirty until one thirty. You can come on out and
from now until November thirtieth, when you eat at white

(36:16):
Castle and you round up, it's going to benefit the NEST.
It's a local nonprofit that helps families in crisis and
it means that you're helping parents escape domestic violence, providing
counseling and giving kids a safe place to grow. Last year,
the NEST provided resources to thousands of families who had
nowhere else to turn.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
And this is the great part about it. Next Friday
you can come out. You can do lunch with KSR
and help with great cause as well. We'll see you
out there again. That is next Friday, from twelve thirty
till one thirty at white Castle on East Rental Road.

Speaker 1 (36:47):
Don't have to tell me twice.

Speaker 3 (36:48):
I can put away some sliders for you, Shannon, a
little mustard and some onions on it as well.

Speaker 1 (36:52):
So that's coming up. All right, Let's go back to
the phones. They're loaded up.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
We'll get as many of you as we can. So
who's up next to Liam?

Speaker 1 (36:59):
Wesley? Wesley?

Speaker 6 (37:01):
Go ahead, Wesley, what's going on? I called after that
first joke because I thought, I thought it was definitely
gonna have this in the back because that was terrible.
But they've definitely gotten better for sure.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
Yeah, all right, well give us your best joke.

Speaker 4 (37:15):
All right?

Speaker 6 (37:16):
Why does Billy wear the same pair of unmatt socks
every time he goes golfing?

Speaker 1 (37:20):
What is that?

Speaker 6 (37:22):
Because he's never had a hole in one?

Speaker 1 (37:28):
I like that the laugh after that, like it wasn't
that great.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
It was all right, But the laugh like when you
when he thought, like I got a good one here.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
The fact that he laughed at his own joke. I
think that's what made me.

Speaker 3 (37:37):
That joke was fine, but it hurt my heart more
than anything. You're right, I don't have a hole in one.

Speaker 1 (37:42):
Yep, anything else, Wesley, No.

Speaker 6 (37:45):
That's all I got. You guys, got a great shrimo.

Speaker 1 (37:47):
All right, thanks, I appreciate it. Liam, all right, who's
up next? Scott? Scott? Go ahead? One day?

Speaker 9 (37:53):
One day, Good morning, guys, good morning.

Speaker 5 (37:57):
For him.

Speaker 4 (37:58):
Elson's daving, what's up in the field, and seize this
guy making love to the sheep. Come down, up, goes up,
knock to the door to let him all but hey,
there's a guy out in your Field making love to
your sheep. The guy responds that my bad.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
All right, thanks La Costcott appreciated.

Speaker 3 (38:30):
Thank you, Scott, the Tennessee than we're getting some riskue
Tennessee jokes.

Speaker 2 (38:35):
That one was good. I still don't know that it's
better than Kevin's though. Let's try another one. Who's up next,
Liam Hunter?

Speaker 1 (38:41):
Hunter? Hey, Hunter, go ahead, I don't I'm not in
the ticket.

Speaker 4 (38:48):
But I got the best joke in the last two years.

Speaker 5 (38:51):
And his name was Mark Stoops.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
Oh wow, wow.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
You know you guys the people out here uh nodding
their head and agreement groans. Yeah, yeah, truth hurts a
little bit. All right, Hunter, anything else you want to
you want to elaborate on that?

Speaker 8 (39:09):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (39:09):
Ready for basketball?

Speaker 7 (39:10):
That's all I got?

Speaker 1 (39:12):
Okay, all right, Hunter says the biggest joke of the
last two years as well.

Speaker 3 (39:16):
I'm telling you, man, that interception against Georgia goes the
other way and I had How different.

Speaker 1 (39:20):
Does this look? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (39:21):
I mean there's well, I mean it just goes to
show you. As we were talking about yesterday, it's a
fickle fan base. But you have a limited amount of
games you play, and one or two games here or
there that if you were to win instead of lose,
we would be having a completely different conversation. One play
a lot of time.

Speaker 3 (39:36):
Yeah, the fake pun against Missouri is a catalyst for
a lot that's happened.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
So all right, let's see if we can get maybe
one more on. All right, Liam? Who we got next?

joke real quick. So Beauford and his wife go out
and play golf in Myrtle Beach and it's in a
residential area, homes all around it. Beauford teas off perfect

(40:52):
shot straight down the fairway. His wife teas off and
she shanks it hard to the lift and so they
drive their golf card over and look looking for the ball,
and they see a busted window and and she was like,
we gotta go over and pay for that window. Okay, okay,

(41:19):
And they get to the house, knock on the door,
and there's this weird looking guy comes to the door
and he's got like this thing wrapped around his head.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
Alright, we gotta go, we gotta go, we got, we got,
we gotta let you go. Matt, You're you're taking too
long to get to the punch line. All right, who's
gonna get the tickets for Adam Sandler?
