Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome everyone. It is the KSR Pre Show. It's Wednesday,
October twenty second. I'm Shannan the Dude and I'm in
the loisvill studio being joined by Billy Religi's over in Lexington. Hey,
you can give us a call on the Clark's Pupping
Shop phone line no matter where you are eight five
nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven be our
whiskey thief Call of the Day text line is five
(00:21):
O two two six five six six five six. And
the KSR Pre Show is being brought to you by Italics.
Find Italian Dining in Lexington. As I said, that's where
Billy is, my co host, who loves to make small
talk on the elevator on.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
His way up to the studio each morning.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Did you run into anybody today or was the elevator
clear when you got on the this one?
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Of course? I mean pre show listeners know that I've
been struggling with this for over two years. At this point,
you know got to say a good morning if somebody
walk into the elevator, and you know you'll have a
good one when they walk out. Every single time today
we've met these weird elevators where you got to press
the button on the outside, and so somebody walks in
(01:01):
through the door of where you would enter the elevators,
and then you have to go push the button. Well, Shannon,
you know what I did today. I held the door
so she could go push the butt sing she can
join us in the elevator. Too many times, Billy r.
Sports has been in that elevator and I have watched
Have people watched me walk in and then not hold
the elevator.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Oh, that's me totally, Like I'm trying to get there, man, Like, hey,
this thing will come back. It's not a one way thing,
Like it'll come back in a minute. I'm the opposite.
If I see somebody that's not closed and they're trying
to get on that elevator, I'm hitting the other button.
You know, there's the door open button and there's the
door closed button.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yeah, you would be.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
I am pounding the close the door button.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Even after we make eye contact. Yeah, I'm like staring
into your soul. Please help hold the door.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Hold the door, like if I know you, maybe, if
I know you that I might do that.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Oh it's pretty egregious if you do and you don't
hold the door really yeah, not today, not feeling it. Yeah,
but then happens every day.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
By the way, that sty is looking funky this morning,
like you, thank you, you just got punched in the eye
by Mike Tyson or something.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Let me see, let me kind of come in.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Oh I see it, Yeah, I can see you. Oh yeah,
you're looking a little cock eyed this morning.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Yeah, I really I'm gonna have to get the eyepatch
for the remote on Friday. But that's pretty much what
I did yesterday. I appreciate everybody reaching out giving me
some remedies and you know, showing me some stuff that
I can get. But I just did warm compress all
day yesterday. So hopefully it doesn't affect you, Shannon. Usually
my beautiful face is probably something that helps you get
up in the morning.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
All good, you got a face for radio, especially today.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
I've heard that.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Now I want to go back to where you're at
right now, the building that you're in, because as we mentioned,
the building is up on what floor is that we're.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
In the seventh floor here.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
I've been there a few times and it's got a
really nice view from up there. I mean, you can
look out, you can see all of this a lot
of the city and you know everything happening below. It's
much better view than what we get here at the
four Street Live Studio. But because it's that great view
that you have, you have you can look down and
see the rooftop of some of the smaller buildings. And
(03:06):
there's one in particular that seems to have a lot
going on on this rooftop and you talked about it
with me on Friday, and this person I've ever seen it,
but I'm like, we have got to talk about that.
We've got to address what is going on on the
rooftop of the building across the street from the iHeart studio.
And so I mean, you could speak to it better
(03:28):
than I can because you've witnessed it firsthand.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
I've only seen pictures and video.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Yeah. So some of these studios are like a basement.
There are no windows, but there are some nice views
in the office area and one of the views of
the rooftops has been a little entertaining as a couple
has brought a pool to the top of one of
the roofs and Shannon, they are out there daily doing
activities like yoga, karate practice, I mean wrestling. Yeah, it
(03:56):
really is bizarre. But every day we get a little
bit of a of this crazy couple and they're inflatable
pool on a rooftop here in Lexington.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
No is this a man and a woman or two dudes?
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah, we can't tell.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Can't tell.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
We need to get the binoculars out and investigate a
little bit more. But yeah, you showed me this on Friday,
and I go, we have got to talk about this
because this is crazy, Like it's on this roof and
each day apparently they come up and they do different activities.
I saw one video of one of them was laying
down on their stomach and the other one was giving
them a back massage on top of this roof is
(04:31):
and I just want to know what is that building
number one and number two? Who are these people and
why are they going up on stage and practicing kung
fu on a rooftop like this? Is this some sort
of secret society rooftop coalition thing that's going on that
I had no idea existed. It's strange you would pick
a rooftop of all places to do that. But did
(04:52):
you look out there today? Is there any action on
the rooftop this morning?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
I haven't seen anything this morning. I don't know if
this is so much as a secret society as it
is like a drugged out couple on their apartment building
that's decided this is how they're going to have a pool.
I mean, if you live in an apartment and you
have to live that life and summer's almost over, well
it is over, we're and fall now, sometimes they would
like to have a little fun, so they bring out
the pool. And like I said, it's just some of
(05:15):
the strangest stuff. And I you know, I can't tell
if it's a guy or a girl, but some of
the intimate poses that they're doing.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Oh yeah, I mean like they are doing couples yoga. Yeah,
it is couples and like figure four leg locks and
like the pool Nelson. I mean, it's like somebody I'm
watching this, going what in the world is happening on
this roof? And yeah, I guess maybe they figured out
a hack for their apartment. You know, you live at
(05:43):
the apartment, maybe it doesn't have a pool. Just go
out and buy an inflatable pool, get to the rooftop,
and then nobody else knows that you're even there, except
for the neighbors over here at iHeart who are looking
down and going what is happening up there right now?
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Yeah, our sales manager, who sits next to the window
that is clearly in views, sends us videos and we'll
post about it on Facebook and give us updates. But
you know, Shannon, sometimes you need to take your booth
thing up to the roof and do a little judo. Yeah,
you know whatever, you know, burns the stress out of
your body, burns burns the calories. So I you know,
I it's they're just living their best life, I think.
(06:17):
And you know, did you ever have an inflatable pool?
Speaker 2 (06:19):
No? No, no, no.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Oh come on, never put one up and put the
dogs in. Come on. There was trying to remember who
it was.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
You know. We always talk about riders and backstage requests
when I was doing those MC jobs at the Amp.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Remember the Amp?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, uh played there bog still right, So they would
have different bands of stuff there, you know, like on
a weekly basis. But of course everybody gets the rider.
And there was a singer who requested an inflatable hot
tub or like an inflatable pool, not a hot tub,
but inflatable pool backstage, and they had to run out
and get an inflatable pool just so they could fulfill
the rider. Yeah, I'm not at the little two booby
(06:58):
it's a little too boogie. Yeah, it's on the not
on the Alice blue Gown rider. We don't have to
have an inflatable top.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Cupcake mescato with you guys the inflatable pool. What do
you think they wanted to do? I mean, it wasn't
a hot.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
To, Yeah it was.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
It was a hot I think she just splash around.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
It was I can't think of her name right now,
but she sings x's and o's, Rob Schneider's daughter's name.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
I'll think of it in a minute. But anyway, that
was on her rider.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
They had to run out and physically get this inflatable
pool so.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
That she would play the show.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I got.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I guess you King, Ellie King there, it is Ellie
King on her rider said you have to have an
inflatable pool for me.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
So anyway, they keep us updated, Billy, I want to know.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
What happens next. I want to know what the couples are.
They keep coming back. Yeah, you know it's entertained. Did
you say one day they spelled out like hello or
something like that, and.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
They made yeah, they were. They were spelling stuff out.
I didn't see that. That was sales manager was relaying
that story to us.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
But you know they took sheets and like laid out hello. Well,
so clearly they know. I think that's there.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I think that's basically their their invite, or they were
to come.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Over there well, or they were trying to signal help
and they just you know, kind of changed it at
the last minute to hello. But you never know, Shannon,
maybe I should go over there.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
I think we should. I think we should send Billy
our Sports over with the microphone random run down Bill,
go over to the rooftop, get an exclusive interview about
what's really happening over there, and you know what, you
may have so much fun you just joined in.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You guys could have a three someome more.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
I'm gonna pass.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Well, hold on, well, I mean doing yoga yoga, Come on, dude.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Yoga threesome. Yes, that is what you're saying, of course. Yeah. Well,
if they are out and about and I am in
the office, you know, I won't mind going over there
and seeing what they're doing. So we'll see.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
All right, So, uh, did you watch any of the
NBA last night?
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Billy I did.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
The NBA on NBC was so nineties, from bringing back
the original theme song to the intro, the graphics were
I felt like I had gone back in a time
warp to thirty years ago and we're watching the NBA
on NBC and Michael Jordan was about to come out there,
which Michael Jordan was on there by the way, he
was doing the like the n studio stuff. So I
(09:07):
really like that, Like I'm big on nostalgia. Of course,
the NBA on NBC, the theme song and everything was
the absolute best, really cool that they brought that back.
And for whatever reason, Billy, when a game is on
the big one of the big four networks, you know
like an ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, to have the game
on NBC last night just felt like it was something big,
(09:27):
you know, like it was a big deal. Like it's
not to me the same when it's on like a
TNT or an ESPN, But when it's on national, like
you can get an antenna TV and still be able
to watch the game.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
That's how you know, it feels like it's it's a big,
big deal.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Yeah, you're not having to find NBA TV on your
channel guide to watch the game, and I missed a
lot of the pregame stuff. I tuned in about halfway through,
so Michael Jordan do an interview with Mike Tarico. It
did seem like the vibes were back of the old NBA.
And then we got a good game. I mean, double
overtime between Houston and Thunder. I don't know if you
we're able to watch the end, but you know, Shay
(10:02):
forces it to overtime with a mid range jumper and
then Kevin Durant like takes a time out when he
doesn't have any timeouts, but the refs didn't call it.
It's very dramatic and not to mention Reed Shepard making
us all a little money.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yesterday, that's right. Yeah, we had the was it over
one and a half? Three pointers?
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Yeah, and Kentucky fans know if he's going to do anything,
he's going to hit that over.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
And it ended up with nine points. So yeah, really
cool to see NBA back on NBC. All right, So
it is Tennessee hate Week and Ryan our boy Ryan
Lemon has already taken to Twitter once again to post
pictures of Tennessee women chewing tobacco and by the way,
speaking to Ryan. He claims yesterday that there are there's
(10:42):
a group of people out there who are clamoring for
Brad White to be our next head coach.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
We found out through all of our calls, all four
of them. There's four people.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
That's the group of people that want to see Brad
White as the next head coach. But do you think, Billy,
that maybe there is a bigger group of people out
there than the sample size that we got on KSR
that actually would like to see Brad White as our
next coach.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Well, yesterday was hilarious, you guys going through the calls
and then if it wasn't a Brad White call, you
just hang up on them and go to the next.
But yeah, absolutely, I do think there are people out
there that think Brad White would be a good hire.
Mitch Barnhardt might be one of them, and that's the
most important person making this decision. It just to me
it would not make a lot of sense to spend
forty million dollars to retain somebody on the same staff,
(11:24):
You know what I mean. If you're gonna pay the buyout,
I feel like you're gonna go in a different direction.
You're gonna reset a little bit. That doesn't seem like
a reset with Brad White. Definitely a different personality. I'm
sure he would do his things his own way, but
that would be much of the same, and right now,
much of the same isn't having a ton of success.
Speaker 5 (11:43):
Now.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Brad White's defense played phenomenal against Texas, I will give
them that, but you know, we've seen them drop in
performance a little bit in years past, and maybe a
lot of that has to do with the quality of
recruit that they're starting to bring in over these last
few years. Maybe the culture change with Nil has also
had to do with it. But to me, that doesn't
tickle the fancy enough, you know what I mean. He
probably has supporters out there, but if you're going to
(12:05):
spend that money and the guys already in house, then
why not just keep it kind of the same and
maybe Brad White and Mark Stoops can work out a
secession plan. I'm not sure.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Yeah, And if you're talking about names that would get
the fan base excited, again, this is all assumption.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
We don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Mark Stoops very well could be the head coach next season,
but if there were to be a change with this
coaching cycle, we talked about yesterday on KSR the names
that maybe would get fans excited.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I don't think Brad White's going to get too many
people excited.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
But I think a name like John Summerl probably would
be at the top of the list.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
You know, that's a name that we've been hearing about
for a long time.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
And look, it would never happen, and the fans probably
don't want it to happen. But if you're talking about
the most accomplished coach out there, it's probably James Franklin.
The guy won a Vandy, he won at Penn State,
he was a went away from going to the College
Football champions a year ago.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, and even though it.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Probably would never happen, and our fans have hated him
because of the way that well just is his attitude
more than anything, you know, and the fact that he
ran up the score on Kentucky when Bandy beat Kentucky,
you know, several years ago. But if you're talking about
the most accomplished guy out there and you were looking
for a coach, James Franklin would be the guy.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
But I don't think it would work here.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
How interesting would that be though? I mean as Kentucky
and Mark Stoops beat James Franklin and Penn State and
the Citrus Bowl, they kind of had, you know, some
some words. I believe Mark Stoops and James Franklin and
was it like a fake punt gone wrong and Stoops
is out at midfield screaming at the other sideline. I mean,
the fire was there, and you got me going down
memory lane thinking about it. But James Franklin, you think
(13:43):
he'd go back to a mid tier, bottom dweller in
the SEC. I mean he was at Vandy for so long.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
It's one of those things that, like you live in
poverty for a while, you've got the plastic furniture, and
then when you don't have it anymore, you do everything
to not go back.
Speaker 6 (13:58):
Right.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yeah, So you're saying, get football is plastic lawn furniture. Well, no,
I don't think that's what you just said. You just
can't really Tucky to that blows away every time there's
a wind gust. You sit on it twice and it cracks.
That's Kentucky football.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
That's my childhood, man. I mean, I got a lot
of love for the plastic furniture. That's that's what I
said on right. So I mean I get it, there's
there's some endearment there. But at the same time, if
you've gone past it, you don't want to go back.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
But it's still the SEC.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
And yeah, Kentucky is in the cellar of the SEC,
but it's still the Southeastern Conference. And we're still talking
about his SEC football at in the.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
School that prioritizes basketball over for that.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Is true, that is true.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
So I mean, you're not going to get the same
situation as you did at Penn State, right, But you know, look,
we've mentioned his name. Nobody else has really talked about
it though a whole lot after the one quote came
out from John Gruden saying that he would like to
coach in the SEC. I keep bringing that up because
I don't understand why you wouldn't give a guy like
(14:57):
that a chance. I really don't. I mean, he has
us in the NFL. You could look at Belichick and
say the same thing. Guy was a legendary coach in
the NFL. Look what's going on at North Carolina. But
I don't think that that makes the two things exactly
the same. Just because Belichick sucks as a college football
coach and some people can say, well, maybe there's a reason,
maybe he's a little distracted off the field, maybe there's
(15:19):
other reasons why he's not sure succeeding at North Carolina.
But I don't think that one is necessarily like the other.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Well I'm biased. I mean John is my favorite coach
of all time being a Buccaneers fan. What he did
in two thousand and three will be remembered forever. But
you got to remember who's making the higher. That's Mitch Barnhart,
and John does come with some baggage, and there's a
reason why he's not coaching anymore fair or foul. I
think Mitch probably takes that into account when he's guaranteeing
this money. But that's a guy that's really motivated, somebody
(15:47):
that I think Florida could probably get a home run
higher if they were to hire him. As somebody that
spent a lot of time in Florida, I mean, Shannon,
he grew up going to Hooters and working at the
Hooters down at Tampa, Like I mean, that was just
his dad worked at Hooters. He worked as he's somebody
that's meant to be coaching football in the state of Florida.
So I think John would be a bit of a
pipe dream. But there are a lot of Kentuck Kentucky
(16:09):
connections in the port. Like in the coaching carousel right now,
you guys mentioned heartline at Ohio State, John Summer All,
I think there's another one out there, even with Kentucky connections.
So I think it's very favorable for Kentucky. But at
the same time, going to be a lot of openings
this cycle, and this season is still not over, so
we're still not sure what's.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Going to happen exactly. A lot could still happen.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
I want to ask you when we come back, is
there any chance that we have against Tennessee on Saturday.
We'll talk more about the game coming up, and of
course we're just two days away from the number one
team in college basketball coming into Rupperino.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
We got to talk a little bit about that.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
It's here Lebron James eating pizza with the fork. That
is psychotic behavior. We'll talk about that and a whole
lot more coming up next. It is the KSR Pre Show.
We'll be right back, all right, Welcome back. It is
the KSR Pre Show. This is Ellie King, who, as
I told you in the first segment had on her
rider that she had to have inflatable pool backstage.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
No inflatable pool, I'm not going on.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
That's right, who is it? One of the rolling Stones
wouldn't go on unless he had like shepherd pie.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
So that's a reasonable So somebody ate.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
The Shepherd's pie and it was like twenty minutes before
the Stones were going on stage, and somebody had to
run down the street and quickly get some Shepherd's pie
for Keith Richards so he could.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Have it before he went up on stage.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
That's tried. It was Keith Richards, And I completely understand
that that guy just has a pregame routine. That's somebody
that's a little stitious, Shannon. That's not weird. It's not
kiddie pool behavior.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Our boy Ryan, you know, I mentioned also in the
first segment that he has been tweeting pictures of Tennessee
women with chewing tobacco in their mouth. I think me
talking about that inspired him, because just six minutes ago
Ryan has tweeted another picture of another Tennessee woman with
chewing tobacco in her mouth. And you know what, Ryan's
the type of guy who can get away with something
(17:58):
like that. I feel like if I did that or
you did that, we would get in some trouble. Ryan
somehow just gets away with everything he can do that,
and everybody goes, oh, it's Ryan, It's okay.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
Why is that? Is it because he's lovable? Yes, give
him a pass.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
It's because he's likable. We already talked about this. You
and I not likable. Ryan at the top of the
likability list. And to be fair, look, I mean these
women with you know, a big chaw in their mouth,
they're the ones who posted the picture on social media
to begin with.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
It's fair use at this point. So I'm not mad
at Ryan about it.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
Well, I do like the comments underneath those photos, and
it will make its way to the Tennessee fan base
and they will get inevitably mad. Also, you get to
a certain age where you just do whatever you want.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
To do, right, Yeah, And Ryan's clearly already.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Hit that ad And are you almost there? I mean
you're getting close, dude. Well come on, he's like pushing fifty. Huh.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
I'm not pushing fifty. What are you talking about?
Speaker 5 (18:50):
All right?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
So coming up on Saturday, Kentucky Tennessee fourth quarter any
chance Kentucky is in the game within read or is
the game over about the fourth quarter on Saturday?
Speaker 3 (19:02):
Chance? Yeah, I mean that's why they play the game, right.
There is parody in college sports still, even with the
transfer portal. Nil. Kentucky just took Texas to the wire.
So is there a chance? Yes?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
How much a chance? Though?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Was a thing like yeah, that's the thing like this, See,
Kentucky just does not suit up well against Tennessee. Texas
was a team that was, you know, try to out
physical you. Tennessee is a team that can be up
tempo and they can spread you out, and that is
something that Kentucky has struggled with in the passagage. Just
do not match up well. So yeah, is there a chance?
Speaker 5 (19:36):
Sure?
Speaker 3 (19:37):
I don't know. I mean there's I mean, there are
a chance and I get into the pool with the
people on the rooftop.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Yeah, absolutely, I hope you do. Actually.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
But the thing is, though we talked about Brad White,
his defense is going to have to be as good
this Saturday as it was last Saturday. You're gonna have
to find a way to somehow hold Tennessee in the teams.
And I think it's a lot easier to do that
to Texas than it as Tennessee. Like you said, it
up tempo offense team that likes to put a lot
of points up. If the game gets into the mid twenties,
(20:09):
I have no confidence on our offense to be able
to score that many points.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
And Kentucky's defense could still play the best game of
the season, and the Kentucky offense could not score more
than two touchdowns and they could be let down, right,
And so I mean it's gonna take all three phases
of the game, even the special teams and covering punts,
for Kentucky to have a shot in this one. Probably
not gonna pick it just for historical purposes. But at
(20:32):
the same time, Shannon, I mean, this game's at home,
is it not?
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Yeah, it is. And it's a nine and a half
point spread on Draft Kings.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
So would you if you're not going to pick Kentucky
to win, would you feel good at least taking the
nine and a half?
Speaker 3 (20:42):
I might tease it, might tease it a little bit more.
Speaker 1 (20:45):

Speaker 2 (21:26):
Let's go to John. Hey, John, oh Shenhew, you good
doing well?
Speaker 4 (21:32):
Yeah? Like you said, Man, we've got to slow them,
slow Tennessee down and scroll them more than two touchdowns
to pull the upset and the Purdue game fine night
against the Cats. I think they can win that too,
but of course it's it's.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
Off urning the season.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
We just have to wait and see how they do
with that. Uh, Jayden Lowe, make sure everybody else steps
up and we can we can pull the pull that
big win.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
All so, yeah, and looking forward to that. John Nicks
for the call. As far as the Kentucky football team,
you know, talking about.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Slowing Tennessee down.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Kentucky's last three games thirteen points, fourteen points, thirteen points.
So when you talk about how are you going to
beat Tennessee? Can you beat Tennessee thirteen to ten? I
just don't feel like that's a rule scenario that could happen.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
In Kentucky basketball Produe's got the right mindset. Play a
top team on the road every year, get your team
ready to go before the season starts. I'm looking forward
to this one.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
We'll take more of your phone calls. Coming up next,
it is the KSR pre Show. Welcome back, It is
the KSR Pre Show. We got the phone lines open
for anybody out there that wants to make the case
that Brad White should be the next head coach here
at Kentucky. We opened up the lines yesterday. We got
four callers. But just in case there's somebody out there
that maybe they couldn't get in yesterday, We've got the
(22:52):
lines open for you here on the pre show. All
right now, Billy, during the break, I didn't know which
direction we were going to go for this next segment.
You're telling me during the break that scientists have said
that there's a new moon that exists, and that's right.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
I think you're crazy.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
These Earth will have a second moon until twenty eighty three. Shannon.
Let me introduce you to asteroid two zero two five P. Seven.
It is a quasi moon, and it will It is
a has a unique movement pattern, which means it acts
like a shadow companion, orbiting the Sun alongside us for decades.
(23:29):
So we will have two moons till the year twenty
eighty three. This has been confirmed by NASA. The moon
is only eighteen to thirty six meters wide, so it's
roughly the height of a four to eight story building.
So I'm not going to see it. Yeah, this is
not like look up into the sky, there's the quasi moon.
But it will follow in an orbit around the Sun,
(23:51):
not the Earth itself. That's why it's not considered an
actual moon moon. It's a quasi moon, Shannon. But now
you know you can tell your friends, maybe your next
bar trivia night, that the Earth now has two moons?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Aren't we like trying to get to the original moon?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Still like I saw that there's like a race between
all the countries trying to get to the Moon, and
I'm going, well, wait a minute, haven't we already been
to the moon?
Speaker 2 (24:13):
I mean, I guess it depends on who you ask.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Jeral Lorenz and Gon rust is So would say absolutely
no one's ever been to the moon. But if you
believe that the moon landing was real, why do we
need to go back? We've already been there. We put
the flag up there, Like what's left to do on
the moon?
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Yeah, I don't know, I don't know. Maybe they need
some more rocks, Shannon, Maybe there's some dust up there
that they need. I would have thought we'd have been
on the Moon by now, right, And.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
Why can't you go back? Like if you got there
one time, you know how to get there.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
I mean, it ain't cheap to get people there, there's
no doubt about it. But like you know, people talk
about colonies on Mars, but in the International Space Station.
Just a little surprised we don't have some type of
operation up on the Moon. But it's probably because nobody
owns the moon, right, I mean, United States can't just
go up start building on the moon, right.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Well, I mean, I feel like we can. We already
put our flag up there. Yeah, but we claimed our space.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
We owned the moon up there, or something like, why
not you.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Can't put why not?
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I mean put a waffle house up there. As long
as I got the old logo, that's all we care about.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
I think everybody could agree to that.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Did you see Tom Izzough?
Speaker 1 (25:21):
He is upset because of this situation with the Louisville
Basketball who just signed a player who has been in
the G League for multiple years. He calls it embarrassing
for the NC DOUBLEA to make this player eligible and
basically said it's because the NC DOUBLEA doesn't want to
be sued. But regardless of the situation, Billy, I don't
(25:42):
really understand how all of this works. And I'm not
talking about just professional players here in America.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
I'm talking about professional players all over the world.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
I mean, we've got one on the team right now
in Yellovich, former professional player. So I guess you know,
if you're going to allow a professional player from another
country to come to America and play college basketball, then
what's really the difference between that and a professional player
in America? Once you open that door, it's like, well, Yeah,
(26:12):
it's ridiculous. But where's the line between professional sports in
America versus other countries.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
It's kind of the same to me.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Yeah, And to my knowledge, the NCAA has not come
out and changed any of their bylaws recently to make
this more accessible. They've just made you know, they've approved
the status of these people whose amateurism or eligibility would
previously not be allowed. I mean, in the manual, here
is verbatim what it says, any athlete who has been
compensated as a professional beyond actual and necessary expenses, a
(26:46):
category that includes health, insurance, meals, lodging, and transportation cannot
play college basketball. Okay, well, basically the NCAA has bent
those rules. Yeah, for multiple international prospects, right, and now
we have G League prospects coming back to college sports.
So that is a slippery slope, is it not, Shannon, Like,
if that's the case, then you know, any G League
(27:06):
guy is going to be able to come back. And
you know, what's it to stop a guy from going
to the G League as soon as possible and then
coming back if things don't work out.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Nothing, there's nothing to stop them.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
I mean, if you're going to Ben the rules and
allow professional players to come from overseas and play college
of basketball here. I don't see any difference from a
guy going to the G League for a couple of
years and then coming back to college basketball and realizing
he can make more money in NIL in college.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
Than he can in the G League.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
So now that you've opened up that opportunity for players
to go play professional and come back, then you've sort
of just you can been the rules for foreign players
to come over. Why can't you do it here in
the States. And I think that's what's going on right now.
But it's ridiculous though, because now we've blurred the line
even more between college sports and professional sports.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
NIL changed all that.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
Now you're allowing guys to go play professional and then
come right back to college.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
So do you like this because in college sports you
make money, you make NIL money, And then you know,
arguably Yellovich was playing professionally overseas, he was probably making
around the same, if not less money than he was
here at Kentucky with NIL. So I mean, as college
sports has shifted into professional sports, we can call it
(28:23):
what it is. I mean, do you have a problem
with this or do you still want to hold on
to the if you play professionally, you can't play in college.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
I don't think personally for me, and this would go
against what Kentucky has done the last couple of seasons,
you know, bringing over big Z who played professionally, now
bringing over Yellovich who's on the team this year, who
played professionally. I think if you go pro, then you
shouldn't be allowed to play college sports again. I mean,
what's to stop somebody from going like it's not going
(28:50):
to happen. But in this scenario, Lebron James has four
years of college eligibility. He could come back if he
really wanted to and play colle college sports.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Could he not?
Speaker 1 (29:01):
I mean, what's the difference between G League players and
a guy in the NBA. They're they're playing professional sports,
they're pros. What's the something from coming back and playing college?
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Right? Well, Lebron's an extreme example. But let's say somebody's
drafted in the first or the second round last year
in the NBA it just doesn't really work out, it's
not a great fit with the team that they drafted them.
Can they go back? Like, is it just I'm done
with the NBA? Can I just go back to college,
like I you know, I don't know. That's just that's
what happens when you open Pandora's box and you start
allowing it. But leave it to Louisville to be one
(29:34):
of these teams that gets one of these G League players.
But uh, you know, we'll see if Kentucky jumps into
that boat here soon.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Let's go to Jake Kjke.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
What's up, Jake?
Speaker 7 (29:43):
Hey, I hope we don't. I hope we don't have
professional players playing here, playing in college sports. That'd be
that'd be horrible. We already do we don't need that,
we don't know, Yeah, but we don't need more of them,
do we.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Well, I mean Kentucky's gone to that that pot well,
I guess twice in three years with the International Yeah, yep,
Big Z and yellowch.
Speaker 7 (30:06):
Hopefully we won't. Hopefully we won't see a Lebron James example.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Right, it's not Yeah, that is an extreme example. But
my point is if you if if a guy in
the GILA could do it, what would stop anybody from
the NBA from doing that?
Speaker 3 (30:18):
But what if Lebron went to Akron like that would.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Really I mean, it's a ridiculous scenario.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
But if you wanted Akron to be a college basketball man, yeah,
I mean.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Everybody would be all in.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
Who can stop him?
Speaker 3 (30:33):
It'd be the most watched college game every week every week.
Speaker 7 (30:38):
It's just like it's just like the the n c
Double A tournament expansion. That's going to happen to.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
Isn't it.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Rick Patino uh spoke yesterday at the Big East Press
Conference and thank you for the College ja JA, and
he said that he's all for expanding the NCAA Basketball
Tournament eight more teams. It's not it's not a matter
of if. It's a matter of win now, Billy. It's
just it's getting too much support from coaches and you
know what's going to happen, whether we like it or not.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Yeah, No, it's it's unfortunate. I think most people are
screaming that they don't want this to happen, but it
is going to according to all the greed. But NCAA
President Charlie Baker had an interesting quote on this just
this week. He said, one of the reasons I'm interested
in expanding the tournament, I do think there are teams
that didn't make the tournament that should have and it
bummed me out that they didn't get in.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
But you're always going to have that opinion.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
You can add eight more teams, there's always going to
be a ninth and a tenth team that you think
should have made the tournament. There's always going to be,
you know, if you want to make let's add four
more teams or eight more teams, whatever it may be,
there's always going to be a team that's left out
that you felt like make shouldn't make the tournament, but didn't.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
That's shan that the NCAA president was bummed out.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
I don't care if he's bummed out. That's life. Not
everybody to change in Cuba. Tournament cannot be a participation trophy.
Not everybody gets in. Okay, Like that's life. Sometimes you
just don't make the greed. Sometimes you just don't make.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
It really bummed me out.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
Give us something to work for next year. It bummed
me out.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
What that's under five didn't make that?
Speaker 2 (32:09):
S are you bummed out?
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Dude here getting a lot of backside. Somebody get them
an ice cream?
Speaker 2 (32:14):
So he's not.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
That was just not the wording you needed. Charlie Baker
and uh, I mean, why do we even listen to
the NCAA anymore. This is the last thing they have
is the NCAA tournament that it's the relevancy that they're
clinging to.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
John, what's up, Hey.
Speaker 6 (32:28):
Guys, I just wanted to let you know. I'm I'm
really excited about the Purdue game this coming up in
a few games. I hate jalb Lowe's hurt. I wonder who.
I think, probably Amberdeen will be the replacement point guard mostly,
I think maybe Chandler Johnson. They get in there a
(32:48):
little bit, but I do think Purdue may may get
us this time, but it's not going to be that
big a deal. I think it'd be good for us
to see at Radley.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
What do you got?
Speaker 4 (33:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (33:02):
I love this idea of playing Purdue and not just
playing another D one school, but the number one preseason
ranked team in the country. Thanks for the college, John,
And it's gonna be a good test for both teams
to see what you got. And you know, kudos to
Purdue to go on the road and one of the
toughest places to play in college basketball at Rupp Arena
for an exhibition game.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
You get a lot more out of it than.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
Watching Kentucky play the Lithuanian national team like they used
to do in the nineties, or athletes in action. So
I think it's great that they finally have allowed this
to happen and not have to play secret games where
players are sneaking into gyms at midnight so they can
have a secret exhibition game against each other.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
I'm all for it.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
I think it's great for the game of college basketball.
And you know, two nights from now, we're going to
find out what we got. And I don't know what
to expect, to be honest with you, I really it's.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Not the it's not the local YMCI. I think if
you go far back enough, that's who Kentucky would play
during exhibition games. But I just don't know how much
credence to put into it. How much stock do I
put into it? When Kentucky wins by fifteen, I mean,
is Perdue going to be running the plays and sets
that they'll be running in February and March.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
You think you think you's gonna win by fifteen.
Speaker 3 (34:10):
I'm just saying that's a possibility, is it not? And
national championship, Yeah, that's what we do.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
We overreact to everything. If Kentucky beats Purdue without Jalen Low.
Of course we're going to say that.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Sure. It's just it's almost a little bit like NFL preseason, right,
or maybe even like the first week. It's there's a
feel of they're not giving everything that they have. So
but this is a great test to warm yourself up.
Like you said, it's not the local YMCA, it's the
number one team in the country. So you think this
is a thing a group that's probably polished and is
probably ready for a good year, and you should welcome
(34:43):
the challenge.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
Right, absolutely, absolutely. I think our fans are going to
be excited about it. I think, I mean, is it
sold out yet?
Speaker 3 (34:51):
Do we know?
Speaker 2 (34:52):
I would say this game will be sold out?
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Yeah, I'm not sure, not sure about that.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
Yeah, but anyway, we're just two sleeps away from that happening.

I can't. But now, after the use of his same

Coming up next, and a study about earworms. Do you
ever get an earworm? With the song you Can't Get
out of your head?
Speaker 6 (36:31):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (36:31):
Yeah, yeah, I thought you were talking about an actual worm,
not my ear.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
Where are you sing those sties in your eyes or
worms in your ears?
Speaker 2 (36:39):
What is going on at your house?
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Billy? We'll be very fluttered in there.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Just the kisr apprecio.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
Poke.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
See there you go. You're already bobbing your head.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
Well this was middle school, Billy.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
I mean that's right.
Speaker 3 (36:52):
He was jamming of this.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
Lady got got poker face considered it be one of
the biggest earworms of all time. When well, I say earworms,
lest anybody's confused, We're not talking about literal worms in
your ear. We're talking about a song that gets in
your head that you can't get it out of your head.
Good Don't Stop Believing by Journey is another one of
the top ones. Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, Can't Get You
Out of My Head by Kylie Minogue, Moves Like Jagger,
(37:15):
and this one, just to name a few. According to
a new study, though, ninety eight percent of people say
they've had earworms songs that get stuck in their head,
and they say the science behind that, Billy, is because
the brain likes rhythm and cadence. So they say, if
you get an earworm songs stuck in your head, you
just need to listen to the song from start to
finish and usually it goes away.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
Oh I did not know that part. Yeah, there's a
solution to the earworm. Yes, you just listen to it
once and your brain will stop reminding you of it.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
Because sometimes you hear a song and it's maybe midway
through it on the radio, and then you know, you
don't your brain likes that song, it doesn't get enough
of it, so now it's stuck in your head.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
So now they say, if you can go.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
Back and listen to it from start to finish, usually
that goes away. And if that doesn't work, that you
can always put on the night Court.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
So you hit some classics, though probably a few that
you've heard too many times. Don't stop believing.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
Only every day of my life.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
For the last one, I was gonna say, like, how
many l do you have?
Speaker 1 (38:15):
I don't really have them because I hear it too much.
I start to finish. But anyway, so we were talking
yesterday and I mentioned this earlier on the show Lebron
James seeing eating pizza with the fork and no, we're
not talking about deep dish pizza where you know Chicago styles.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Sometimes you have to eat it with the fork.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
Does regular pizza eating it with the fork is psychotic behavior?
Speaker 3 (38:37):
Billy?
Speaker 2 (38:38):
True or false?
Speaker 3 (38:40):
For the most part, true, But I mean there can
be situations. I mean, let's say you just got done work,
in a hard day's work, Shannon, maybe your hands are dirty.
You need some utensil.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
They washed your stinking hands. What are you doing? You
can't You can't pick up the pizza because your hands
are there.
Speaker 3 (38:55):
I'm just giving you a scenario in which somebody could
use a knife and fork.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
In the locker room and working so hard that he
can't wash his hands to pick up the slice of pizza.
Speaker 3 (39:06):
Those basketballs are dirty, So uh, I don't know, but
I'm trying to defend Lebron here a little bit. But
it's it's tough to do. That's just something that feels
more natural picking up with your hands, like a hot dog,
a hamburger. Like is there a Seinfeld episode where they
eat a Snickers bar with fork and knife and the
whole rest of the episode they're just freaking out, So
(39:26):
there is a little psychoticness to it.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Someone writes, watched a guy in a suit and a
tie eat an entire burger at brew Burger with a
fork and a knife, and it changed my life. He
ate the entire thing without a single drop of grease
getting on his shirt.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Well, see, there's another situation. You're in your Sunday best
you don't want to spill any I mean, you put
a hot dog in your hands, a little ketchup and
mustard relish all that all the nine yards, you might
spill a little something on there. So I get that.
Speaker 2 (39:52):
But you're not eating a hot dog with a fork and.
Speaker 3 (39:54):
N But you gotta be the guy eating a hot
dog with a fork and knife. And if you're okay
with that, you're confident in yourself. You got a little
billy co confidence, then go ahead.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
And do it.
Speaker 1 (40:01):
I'm just saying, if you're eating a pizza and it's
not deep dish and you're eating it with a fork
and a knife, I don't trust you.
Speaker 3 (40:07):
Are you judging me for how I am about yourself?
Speaker 4 (40:10):
No?
Speaker 2 (40:11):
I'm like, who is that psychopath over there? Hey? Drew?
What's up? How are you Drew?
Speaker 7 (40:17):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (40:17):
One of guys. I'm doing really well. First of all,
biggest earworm for me is never going to give you up?
By Rick Ashley. You know Rickroll ficks in my head. Yeah,
listen real quick, I know somebody that was a part
of the program, front of the football program from Joker on
to the transition there with coach Stoops. He said that
(40:39):
before the last game was even played that all the
coaches had their their offices cleaned out. I'm wondering if,
because you know, Mitch is really good about not a
really bad baby, I don't know about not firing guys
in the middle of the season, but you know, these
agents they have to be calling. I don't know if
you guys got any inside information or if it's just
a guest. Do you think you're calling right now saying hey,
(41:02):
if you guys get rid of steps, let's talk. Do
you think that's going on right now with some of
these big coaches.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
I have no idea other than to just speculate. I
would say there's probably a good chance when a coach
is on a hot seat, there are some phone calls
being made. And I appreciate the call, Drew, but you
would think that there's probably some phone calls being made
because you have to be self aware, you have to
know the situation you're in, and the agents do as well.
Speaker 2 (41:25):
So I'm sure there's some phone calls going on.
Speaker 3 (41:27):
The agents are always going to work in the best
entrance of their clients, and if that's what Mark Stups wants,
if he wanted to coach at a different school, then yeah,
I think agents would be making a couple calls now.
Are they calling athletic directors? Are they talking to people
on the inside? You know, I'm not sure about that process.
But it's so important to have a coaching staff in
place early in college football, more so this year than
(41:49):
any with the transfer portal and having to make a
jump on those things.
Speaker 1 (41:51):

the loisvill studio being joined by Billy Religi's over in Lexington. Hey,
you can give us a call on the Clark's Pupping
Shop phone line no matter where you are eight five
nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven be our
whiskey thief Call of the Day text line is five
(00:21):
O two two six five six six five six. And
the KSR Pre Show is being brought to you by Italics.
Find Italian Dining in Lexington. As I said, that's where
Billy is, my co host, who loves to make small
talk on the elevator on.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
His way up to the studio each morning.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Did you run into anybody today or was the elevator
clear when you got on the this one?
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Of course? I mean pre show listeners know that I've
been struggling with this for over two years. At this point,
you know got to say a good morning if somebody
walk into the elevator, and you know you'll have a
good one when they walk out. Every single time today
we've met these weird elevators where you got to press
the button on the outside, and so somebody walks in
(01:01):
through the door of where you would enter the elevators,
and then you have to go push the button. Well, Shannon,
you know what I did today. I held the door
so she could go push the butt sing she can
join us in the elevator. Too many times, Billy r.
Sports has been in that elevator and I have watched
Have people watched me walk in and then not hold
the elevator.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Oh, that's me totally, Like I'm trying to get there, man, Like, hey,
this thing will come back. It's not a one way thing,
Like it'll come back in a minute. I'm the opposite.
If I see somebody that's not closed and they're trying
to get on that elevator, I'm hitting the other button.
You know, there's the door open button and there's the
door closed button.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yeah, you would be.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
I am pounding the close the door button.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Even after we make eye contact. Yeah, I'm like staring
into your soul. Please help hold the door.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Hold the door, like if I know you, maybe, if
I know you that I might do that.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Oh it's pretty egregious if you do and you don't
hold the door really yeah, not today, not feeling it. Yeah,
but then happens every day.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
By the way, that sty is looking funky this morning,
like you, thank you, you just got punched in the eye
by Mike Tyson or something.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Let me see, let me kind of come in.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Oh I see it, Yeah, I can see you. Oh yeah,
you're looking a little cock eyed this morning.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Yeah, I really I'm gonna have to get the eyepatch
for the remote on Friday. But that's pretty much what
I did yesterday. I appreciate everybody reaching out giving me
some remedies and you know, showing me some stuff that
I can get. But I just did warm compress all
day yesterday. So hopefully it doesn't affect you, Shannon. Usually
my beautiful face is probably something that helps you get
up in the morning.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
All good, you got a face for radio, especially today.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
I've heard that.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Now I want to go back to where you're at
right now, the building that you're in, because as we mentioned,
the building is up on what floor is that we're.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
In the seventh floor here.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
I've been there a few times and it's got a
really nice view from up there. I mean, you can
look out, you can see all of this a lot
of the city and you know everything happening below. It's
much better view than what we get here at the
four Street Live Studio. But because it's that great view
that you have, you have you can look down and
see the rooftop of some of the smaller buildings. And
(03:06):
there's one in particular that seems to have a lot
going on on this rooftop and you talked about it
with me on Friday, and this person I've ever seen it,
but I'm like, we have got to talk about that.
We've got to address what is going on on the
rooftop of the building across the street from the iHeart studio.
And so I mean, you could speak to it better
(03:28):
than I can because you've witnessed it firsthand.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
I've only seen pictures and video.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Yeah. So some of these studios are like a basement.
There are no windows, but there are some nice views
in the office area and one of the views of
the rooftops has been a little entertaining as a couple
has brought a pool to the top of one of
the roofs and Shannon, they are out there daily doing
activities like yoga, karate practice, I mean wrestling. Yeah, it
(03:56):
really is bizarre. But every day we get a little
bit of a of this crazy couple and they're inflatable
pool on a rooftop here in Lexington.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
No is this a man and a woman or two dudes?
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah, we can't tell.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Can't tell.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
We need to get the binoculars out and investigate a
little bit more. But yeah, you showed me this on Friday,
and I go, we have got to talk about this
because this is crazy, Like it's on this roof and
each day apparently they come up and they do different activities.
I saw one video of one of them was laying
down on their stomach and the other one was giving
them a back massage on top of this roof is
(04:31):
and I just want to know what is that building
number one and number two? Who are these people and
why are they going up on stage and practicing kung
fu on a rooftop like this? Is this some sort
of secret society rooftop coalition thing that's going on that
I had no idea existed. It's strange you would pick
a rooftop of all places to do that. But did
(04:52):
you look out there today? Is there any action on
the rooftop this morning?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
I haven't seen anything this morning. I don't know if
this is so much as a secret society as it
is like a drugged out couple on their apartment building
that's decided this is how they're going to have a pool.
I mean, if you live in an apartment and you
have to live that life and summer's almost over, well
it is over, we're and fall now, sometimes they would
like to have a little fun, so they bring out
the pool. And like I said, it's just some of
(05:15):
the strangest stuff. And I you know, I can't tell
if it's a guy or a girl, but some of
the intimate poses that they're doing.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Oh yeah, I mean like they are doing couples yoga. Yeah,
it is couples and like figure four leg locks and
like the pool Nelson. I mean, it's like somebody I'm
watching this, going what in the world is happening on
this roof? And yeah, I guess maybe they figured out
a hack for their apartment. You know, you live at
(05:43):
the apartment, maybe it doesn't have a pool. Just go
out and buy an inflatable pool, get to the rooftop,
and then nobody else knows that you're even there, except
for the neighbors over here at iHeart who are looking
down and going what is happening up there right now?
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Yeah, our sales manager, who sits next to the window
that is clearly in views, sends us videos and we'll
post about it on Facebook and give us updates. But
you know, Shannon, sometimes you need to take your booth
thing up to the roof and do a little judo. Yeah,
you know whatever, you know, burns the stress out of
your body, burns burns the calories. So I you know,
I it's they're just living their best life, I think.
(06:17):
And you know, did you ever have an inflatable pool?
Speaker 2 (06:19):
No? No, no, no.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Oh come on, never put one up and put the
dogs in. Come on. There was trying to remember who
it was.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
You know. We always talk about riders and backstage requests
when I was doing those MC jobs at the Amp.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Remember the Amp?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, uh played there bog still right, So they would
have different bands of stuff there, you know, like on
a weekly basis. But of course everybody gets the rider.
And there was a singer who requested an inflatable hot
tub or like an inflatable pool, not a hot tub,
but inflatable pool backstage, and they had to run out
and get an inflatable pool just so they could fulfill
the rider. Yeah, I'm not at the little two booby
(06:58):
it's a little too boogie. Yeah, it's on the not
on the Alice blue Gown rider. We don't have to
have an inflatable top.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Cupcake mescato with you guys the inflatable pool. What do
you think they wanted to do? I mean, it wasn't
a hot.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
To, Yeah it was.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
It was a hot I think she just splash around.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
It was I can't think of her name right now,
but she sings x's and o's, Rob Schneider's daughter's name.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
I'll think of it in a minute. But anyway, that
was on her rider.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
They had to run out and physically get this inflatable
pool so.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
That she would play the show.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I got.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I guess you King, Ellie King there, it is Ellie
King on her rider said you have to have an
inflatable pool for me.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
So anyway, they keep us updated, Billy, I want to know.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
What happens next. I want to know what the couples are.
They keep coming back. Yeah, you know it's entertained. Did
you say one day they spelled out like hello or
something like that, and.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
They made yeah, they were. They were spelling stuff out.
I didn't see that. That was sales manager was relaying
that story to us.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
But you know they took sheets and like laid out hello. Well,
so clearly they know. I think that's there.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I think that's basically their their invite, or they were
to come.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Over there well, or they were trying to signal help
and they just you know, kind of changed it at
the last minute to hello. But you never know, Shannon,
maybe I should go over there.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
I think we should. I think we should send Billy
our Sports over with the microphone random run down Bill,
go over to the rooftop, get an exclusive interview about
what's really happening over there, and you know what, you
may have so much fun you just joined in.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You guys could have a three someome more.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
I'm gonna pass.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Well, hold on, well, I mean doing yoga yoga, Come on, dude.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Yoga threesome. Yes, that is what you're saying, of course. Yeah. Well,
if they are out and about and I am in
the office, you know, I won't mind going over there
and seeing what they're doing. So we'll see.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
All right, So, uh, did you watch any of the
NBA last night?
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Billy I did.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
The NBA on NBC was so nineties, from bringing back
the original theme song to the intro, the graphics were
I felt like I had gone back in a time
warp to thirty years ago and we're watching the NBA
on NBC and Michael Jordan was about to come out there,
which Michael Jordan was on there by the way, he
was doing the like the n studio stuff. So I
(09:07):
really like that, Like I'm big on nostalgia. Of course,
the NBA on NBC, the theme song and everything was
the absolute best, really cool that they brought that back.
And for whatever reason, Billy, when a game is on
the big one of the big four networks, you know
like an ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, to have the game
on NBC last night just felt like it was something big,
(09:27):
you know, like it was a big deal. Like it's
not to me the same when it's on like a
TNT or an ESPN, But when it's on national, like
you can get an antenna TV and still be able
to watch the game.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
That's how you know, it feels like it's it's a big,
big deal.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Yeah, you're not having to find NBA TV on your
channel guide to watch the game, and I missed a
lot of the pregame stuff. I tuned in about halfway through,
so Michael Jordan do an interview with Mike Tarico. It
did seem like the vibes were back of the old NBA.
And then we got a good game. I mean, double
overtime between Houston and Thunder. I don't know if you
we're able to watch the end, but you know, Shay
(10:02):
forces it to overtime with a mid range jumper and
then Kevin Durant like takes a time out when he
doesn't have any timeouts, but the refs didn't call it.
It's very dramatic and not to mention Reed Shepard making
us all a little money.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yesterday, that's right. Yeah, we had the was it over
one and a half? Three pointers?
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Yeah, and Kentucky fans know if he's going to do anything,
he's going to hit that over.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
And it ended up with nine points. So yeah, really
cool to see NBA back on NBC. All right, So
it is Tennessee hate Week and Ryan our boy Ryan
Lemon has already taken to Twitter once again to post
pictures of Tennessee women chewing tobacco and by the way,
speaking to Ryan. He claims yesterday that there are there's
(10:42):
a group of people out there who are clamoring for
Brad White to be our next head coach.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
We found out through all of our calls, all four
of them. There's four people.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
That's the group of people that want to see Brad
White as the next head coach. But do you think, Billy,
that maybe there is a bigger group of people out
there than the sample size that we got on KSR
that actually would like to see Brad White as our
next coach.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Well, yesterday was hilarious, you guys going through the calls
and then if it wasn't a Brad White call, you
just hang up on them and go to the next.
But yeah, absolutely, I do think there are people out
there that think Brad White would be a good hire.
Mitch Barnhardt might be one of them, and that's the
most important person making this decision. It just to me
it would not make a lot of sense to spend
forty million dollars to retain somebody on the same staff,
(11:24):
You know what I mean. If you're gonna pay the buyout,
I feel like you're gonna go in a different direction.
You're gonna reset a little bit. That doesn't seem like
a reset with Brad White. Definitely a different personality. I'm
sure he would do his things his own way, but
that would be much of the same, and right now,
much of the same isn't having a ton of success.
Speaker 5 (11:43):
Now.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Brad White's defense played phenomenal against Texas, I will give
them that, but you know, we've seen them drop in
performance a little bit in years past, and maybe a
lot of that has to do with the quality of
recruit that they're starting to bring in over these last
few years. Maybe the culture change with Nil has also
had to do with it. But to me, that doesn't
tickle the fancy enough, you know what I mean. He
probably has supporters out there, but if you're going to
(12:05):
spend that money and the guys already in house, then
why not just keep it kind of the same and
maybe Brad White and Mark Stoops can work out a
secession plan. I'm not sure.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Yeah, And if you're talking about names that would get
the fan base excited, again, this is all assumption.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
We don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Mark Stoops very well could be the head coach next season,
but if there were to be a change with this
coaching cycle, we talked about yesterday on KSR the names
that maybe would get fans excited.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I don't think Brad White's going to get too many
people excited.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
But I think a name like John Summerl probably would
be at the top of the list.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
You know, that's a name that we've been hearing about
for a long time.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
And look, it would never happen, and the fans probably
don't want it to happen. But if you're talking about
the most accomplished coach out there, it's probably James Franklin.
The guy won a Vandy, he won at Penn State,
he was a went away from going to the College
Football champions a year ago.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, and even though it.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Probably would never happen, and our fans have hated him
because of the way that well just is his attitude
more than anything, you know, and the fact that he
ran up the score on Kentucky when Bandy beat Kentucky,
you know, several years ago. But if you're talking about
the most accomplished guy out there and you were looking
for a coach, James Franklin would be the guy.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
But I don't think it would work here.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
How interesting would that be though? I mean as Kentucky
and Mark Stoops beat James Franklin and Penn State and
the Citrus Bowl, they kind of had, you know, some
some words. I believe Mark Stoops and James Franklin and
was it like a fake punt gone wrong and Stoops
is out at midfield screaming at the other sideline. I mean,
the fire was there, and you got me going down
memory lane thinking about it. But James Franklin, you think
(13:43):
he'd go back to a mid tier, bottom dweller in
the SEC. I mean he was at Vandy for so long.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
It's one of those things that, like you live in
poverty for a while, you've got the plastic furniture, and
then when you don't have it anymore, you do everything
to not go back.
Speaker 6 (13:58):
Right.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yeah, So you're saying, get football is plastic lawn furniture. Well, no,
I don't think that's what you just said. You just
can't really Tucky to that blows away every time there's
a wind gust. You sit on it twice and it cracks.
That's Kentucky football.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
That's my childhood, man. I mean, I got a lot
of love for the plastic furniture. That's that's what I
said on right. So I mean I get it, there's
there's some endearment there. But at the same time, if
you've gone past it, you don't want to go back.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
But it's still the SEC.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
And yeah, Kentucky is in the cellar of the SEC,
but it's still the Southeastern Conference. And we're still talking
about his SEC football at in the.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
School that prioritizes basketball over for that.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Is true, that is true.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
So I mean, you're not going to get the same
situation as you did at Penn State, right, But you know, look,
we've mentioned his name. Nobody else has really talked about
it though a whole lot after the one quote came
out from John Gruden saying that he would like to
coach in the SEC. I keep bringing that up because
I don't understand why you wouldn't give a guy like
(14:57):
that a chance. I really don't. I mean, he has
us in the NFL. You could look at Belichick and
say the same thing. Guy was a legendary coach in
the NFL. Look what's going on at North Carolina. But
I don't think that that makes the two things exactly
the same. Just because Belichick sucks as a college football
coach and some people can say, well, maybe there's a reason,
maybe he's a little distracted off the field, maybe there's
(15:19):
other reasons why he's not sure succeeding at North Carolina.
But I don't think that one is necessarily like the other.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Well I'm biased. I mean John is my favorite coach
of all time being a Buccaneers fan. What he did
in two thousand and three will be remembered forever. But
you got to remember who's making the higher. That's Mitch Barnhart,
and John does come with some baggage, and there's a
reason why he's not coaching anymore fair or foul. I
think Mitch probably takes that into account when he's guaranteeing
this money. But that's a guy that's really motivated, somebody
(15:47):
that I think Florida could probably get a home run
higher if they were to hire him. As somebody that
spent a lot of time in Florida, I mean, Shannon,
he grew up going to Hooters and working at the
Hooters down at Tampa, Like I mean, that was just
his dad worked at Hooters. He worked as he's somebody
that's meant to be coaching football in the state of Florida.
So I think John would be a bit of a
pipe dream. But there are a lot of Kentuck Kentucky
(16:09):
connections in the port. Like in the coaching carousel right now,
you guys mentioned heartline at Ohio State, John Summer All,
I think there's another one out there, even with Kentucky connections.
So I think it's very favorable for Kentucky. But at
the same time, going to be a lot of openings
this cycle, and this season is still not over, so
we're still not sure what's.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Going to happen exactly. A lot could still happen.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
I want to ask you when we come back, is
there any chance that we have against Tennessee on Saturday.
We'll talk more about the game coming up, and of
course we're just two days away from the number one
team in college basketball coming into Rupperino.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
We got to talk a little bit about that.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
It's here Lebron James eating pizza with the fork. That
is psychotic behavior. We'll talk about that and a whole
lot more coming up next. It is the KSR Pre Show.
We'll be right back, all right, Welcome back. It is
the KSR Pre Show. This is Ellie King, who, as
I told you in the first segment had on her
rider that she had to have inflatable pool backstage.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
No inflatable pool, I'm not going on.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
That's right, who is it? One of the rolling Stones
wouldn't go on unless he had like shepherd pie.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
So that's a reasonable So somebody ate.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
The Shepherd's pie and it was like twenty minutes before
the Stones were going on stage, and somebody had to
run down the street and quickly get some Shepherd's pie
for Keith Richards so he could.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Have it before he went up on stage.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
That's tried. It was Keith Richards, And I completely understand
that that guy just has a pregame routine. That's somebody
that's a little stitious, Shannon. That's not weird. It's not
kiddie pool behavior.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Our boy Ryan, you know, I mentioned also in the
first segment that he has been tweeting pictures of Tennessee
women with chewing tobacco in their mouth. I think me
talking about that inspired him, because just six minutes ago
Ryan has tweeted another picture of another Tennessee woman with
chewing tobacco in her mouth. And you know what, Ryan's
the type of guy who can get away with something
(17:58):
like that. I feel like if I did that or
you did that, we would get in some trouble. Ryan
somehow just gets away with everything he can do that,
and everybody goes, oh, it's Ryan, It's okay.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
Why is that? Is it because he's lovable? Yes, give
him a pass.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
It's because he's likable. We already talked about this. You
and I not likable. Ryan at the top of the
likability list. And to be fair, look, I mean these
women with you know, a big chaw in their mouth,
they're the ones who posted the picture on social media
to begin with.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
It's fair use at this point. So I'm not mad
at Ryan about it.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
Well, I do like the comments underneath those photos, and
it will make its way to the Tennessee fan base
and they will get inevitably mad. Also, you get to
a certain age where you just do whatever you want.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
To do, right, Yeah, And Ryan's clearly already.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Hit that ad And are you almost there? I mean
you're getting close, dude. Well come on, he's like pushing fifty. Huh.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
I'm not pushing fifty. What are you talking about?
Speaker 5 (18:50):
All right?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
So coming up on Saturday, Kentucky Tennessee fourth quarter any
chance Kentucky is in the game within read or is
the game over about the fourth quarter on Saturday?
Speaker 3 (19:02):
Chance? Yeah, I mean that's why they play the game, right.
There is parody in college sports still, even with the
transfer portal. Nil. Kentucky just took Texas to the wire.
So is there a chance? Yes?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
How much a chance? Though?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Was a thing like yeah, that's the thing like this, See,
Kentucky just does not suit up well against Tennessee. Texas
was a team that was, you know, try to out
physical you. Tennessee is a team that can be up
tempo and they can spread you out, and that is
something that Kentucky has struggled with in the passagage. Just
do not match up well. So yeah, is there a chance?
Speaker 5 (19:36):
Sure?
Speaker 3 (19:37):
I don't know. I mean there's I mean, there are
a chance and I get into the pool with the
people on the rooftop.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Yeah, absolutely, I hope you do. Actually.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
But the thing is, though we talked about Brad White,
his defense is going to have to be as good
this Saturday as it was last Saturday. You're gonna have
to find a way to somehow hold Tennessee in the teams.
And I think it's a lot easier to do that
to Texas than it as Tennessee. Like you said, it
up tempo offense team that likes to put a lot
of points up. If the game gets into the mid twenties,
(20:09):
I have no confidence on our offense to be able
to score that many points.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
And Kentucky's defense could still play the best game of
the season, and the Kentucky offense could not score more
than two touchdowns and they could be let down, right,
And so I mean it's gonna take all three phases
of the game, even the special teams and covering punts,
for Kentucky to have a shot in this one. Probably
not gonna pick it just for historical purposes. But at
(20:32):
the same time, Shannon, I mean, this game's at home,
is it not?
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Yeah, it is. And it's a nine and a half
point spread on Draft Kings.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
So would you if you're not going to pick Kentucky
to win, would you feel good at least taking the
nine and a half?
Speaker 3 (20:42):
I might tease it, might tease it a little bit more.
Speaker 1 (20:45):

Speaker 2 (21:26):
Let's go to John. Hey, John, oh Shenhew, you good
doing well?
Speaker 4 (21:32):
Yeah? Like you said, Man, we've got to slow them,
slow Tennessee down and scroll them more than two touchdowns
to pull the upset and the Purdue game fine night
against the Cats. I think they can win that too,
but of course it's it's.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
Off urning the season.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
We just have to wait and see how they do
with that. Uh, Jayden Lowe, make sure everybody else steps
up and we can we can pull the pull that
big win.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
All so, yeah, and looking forward to that. John Nicks
for the call. As far as the Kentucky football team,
you know, talking about.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Slowing Tennessee down.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Kentucky's last three games thirteen points, fourteen points, thirteen points.
So when you talk about how are you going to
beat Tennessee? Can you beat Tennessee thirteen to ten? I
just don't feel like that's a rule scenario that could happen.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
In Kentucky basketball Produe's got the right mindset. Play a
top team on the road every year, get your team
ready to go before the season starts. I'm looking forward
to this one.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
We'll take more of your phone calls. Coming up next,
it is the KSR pre Show. Welcome back, It is
the KSR Pre Show. We got the phone lines open
for anybody out there that wants to make the case
that Brad White should be the next head coach here
at Kentucky. We opened up the lines yesterday. We got
four callers. But just in case there's somebody out there
that maybe they couldn't get in yesterday, We've got the
(22:52):
lines open for you here on the pre show. All
right now, Billy, during the break, I didn't know which
direction we were going to go for this next segment.
You're telling me during the break that scientists have said
that there's a new moon that exists, and that's right.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
I think you're crazy.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
These Earth will have a second moon until twenty eighty three. Shannon.
Let me introduce you to asteroid two zero two five P. Seven.
It is a quasi moon, and it will It is
a has a unique movement pattern, which means it acts
like a shadow companion, orbiting the Sun alongside us for decades.
(23:29):
So we will have two moons till the year twenty
eighty three. This has been confirmed by NASA. The moon
is only eighteen to thirty six meters wide, so it's
roughly the height of a four to eight story building.
So I'm not going to see it. Yeah, this is
not like look up into the sky, there's the quasi moon.
But it will follow in an orbit around the Sun,
(23:51):
not the Earth itself. That's why it's not considered an
actual moon moon. It's a quasi moon, Shannon. But now
you know you can tell your friends, maybe your next
bar trivia night, that the Earth now has two moons?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Aren't we like trying to get to the original moon?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Still like I saw that there's like a race between
all the countries trying to get to the Moon, and
I'm going, well, wait a minute, haven't we already been
to the moon?
Speaker 2 (24:13):
I mean, I guess it depends on who you ask.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Jeral Lorenz and Gon rust is So would say absolutely
no one's ever been to the moon. But if you
believe that the moon landing was real, why do we
need to go back? We've already been there. We put
the flag up there, Like what's left to do on
the moon?
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Yeah, I don't know, I don't know. Maybe they need
some more rocks, Shannon, Maybe there's some dust up there
that they need. I would have thought we'd have been
on the Moon by now, right, And.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
Why can't you go back? Like if you got there
one time, you know how to get there.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
I mean, it ain't cheap to get people there, there's
no doubt about it. But like you know, people talk
about colonies on Mars, but in the International Space Station.
Just a little surprised we don't have some type of
operation up on the Moon. But it's probably because nobody
owns the moon, right, I mean, United States can't just
go up start building on the moon, right.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Well, I mean, I feel like we can. We already
put our flag up there. Yeah, but we claimed our space.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
We owned the moon up there, or something like, why
not you.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Can't put why not?
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I mean put a waffle house up there. As long
as I got the old logo, that's all we care about.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
I think everybody could agree to that.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Did you see Tom Izzough?
Speaker 1 (25:21):
He is upset because of this situation with the Louisville
Basketball who just signed a player who has been in
the G League for multiple years. He calls it embarrassing
for the NC DOUBLEA to make this player eligible and
basically said it's because the NC DOUBLEA doesn't want to
be sued. But regardless of the situation, Billy, I don't
(25:42):
really understand how all of this works. And I'm not
talking about just professional players here in America.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
I'm talking about professional players all over the world.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
I mean, we've got one on the team right now
in Yellovich, former professional player. So I guess you know,
if you're going to allow a professional player from another
country to come to America and play college basketball, then
what's really the difference between that and a professional player
in America? Once you open that door, it's like, well, Yeah,
(26:12):
it's ridiculous. But where's the line between professional sports in
America versus other countries.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
It's kind of the same to me.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Yeah, And to my knowledge, the NCAA has not come
out and changed any of their bylaws recently to make
this more accessible. They've just made you know, they've approved
the status of these people whose amateurism or eligibility would
previously not be allowed. I mean, in the manual, here
is verbatim what it says, any athlete who has been
compensated as a professional beyond actual and necessary expenses, a
(26:46):
category that includes health, insurance, meals, lodging, and transportation cannot
play college basketball. Okay, well, basically the NCAA has bent
those rules. Yeah, for multiple international prospects, right, and now
we have G League prospects coming back to college sports.
So that is a slippery slope, is it not, Shannon, Like,
if that's the case, then you know, any G League
(27:06):
guy is going to be able to come back. And
you know, what's it to stop a guy from going
to the G League as soon as possible and then
coming back if things don't work out.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Nothing, there's nothing to stop them.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
I mean, if you're going to Ben the rules and
allow professional players to come from overseas and play college
of basketball here. I don't see any difference from a
guy going to the G League for a couple of
years and then coming back to college basketball and realizing
he can make more money in NIL in college.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
Than he can in the G League.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
So now that you've opened up that opportunity for players
to go play professional and come back, then you've sort
of just you can been the rules for foreign players
to come over. Why can't you do it here in
the States. And I think that's what's going on right now.
But it's ridiculous though, because now we've blurred the line
even more between college sports and professional sports.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
NIL changed all that.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
Now you're allowing guys to go play professional and then
come right back to college.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
So do you like this because in college sports you
make money, you make NIL money, And then you know,
arguably Yellovich was playing professionally overseas, he was probably making
around the same, if not less money than he was
here at Kentucky with NIL. So I mean, as college
sports has shifted into professional sports, we can call it
(28:23):
what it is. I mean, do you have a problem
with this or do you still want to hold on
to the if you play professionally, you can't play in college.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
I don't think personally for me, and this would go
against what Kentucky has done the last couple of seasons,
you know, bringing over big Z who played professionally, now
bringing over Yellovich who's on the team this year, who
played professionally. I think if you go pro, then you
shouldn't be allowed to play college sports again. I mean,
what's to stop somebody from going like it's not going
(28:50):
to happen. But in this scenario, Lebron James has four
years of college eligibility. He could come back if he
really wanted to and play colle college sports.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Could he not?
Speaker 1 (29:01):
I mean, what's the difference between G League players and
a guy in the NBA. They're they're playing professional sports,
they're pros. What's the something from coming back and playing college?
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Right? Well, Lebron's an extreme example. But let's say somebody's
drafted in the first or the second round last year
in the NBA it just doesn't really work out, it's
not a great fit with the team that they drafted them.
Can they go back? Like, is it just I'm done
with the NBA? Can I just go back to college,
like I you know, I don't know. That's just that's
what happens when you open Pandora's box and you start
allowing it. But leave it to Louisville to be one
(29:34):
of these teams that gets one of these G League players.
But uh, you know, we'll see if Kentucky jumps into
that boat here soon.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Let's go to Jake Kjke.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
What's up, Jake?
Speaker 7 (29:43):
Hey, I hope we don't. I hope we don't have
professional players playing here, playing in college sports. That'd be
that'd be horrible. We already do we don't need that,
we don't know, Yeah, but we don't need more of them,
do we.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Well, I mean Kentucky's gone to that that pot well,
I guess twice in three years with the International Yeah, yep,
Big Z and yellowch.
Speaker 7 (30:06):
Hopefully we won't. Hopefully we won't see a Lebron James example.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Right, it's not Yeah, that is an extreme example. But
my point is if you if if a guy in
the GILA could do it, what would stop anybody from
the NBA from doing that?
Speaker 3 (30:18):
But what if Lebron went to Akron like that would.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Really I mean, it's a ridiculous scenario.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
But if you wanted Akron to be a college basketball man, yeah,
I mean.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Everybody would be all in.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
Who can stop him?
Speaker 3 (30:33):
It'd be the most watched college game every week every week.
Speaker 7 (30:38):
It's just like it's just like the the n c
Double A tournament expansion. That's going to happen to.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
Isn't it.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Rick Patino uh spoke yesterday at the Big East Press
Conference and thank you for the College ja JA, and
he said that he's all for expanding the NCAA Basketball
Tournament eight more teams. It's not it's not a matter
of if. It's a matter of win now, Billy. It's
just it's getting too much support from coaches and you
know what's going to happen, whether we like it or not.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Yeah, No, it's it's unfortunate. I think most people are
screaming that they don't want this to happen, but it
is going to according to all the greed. But NCAA
President Charlie Baker had an interesting quote on this just
this week. He said, one of the reasons I'm interested
in expanding the tournament, I do think there are teams
that didn't make the tournament that should have and it
bummed me out that they didn't get in.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
But you're always going to have that opinion.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
You can add eight more teams, there's always going to
be a ninth and a tenth team that you think
should have made the tournament. There's always going to be,
you know, if you want to make let's add four
more teams or eight more teams, whatever it may be,
there's always going to be a team that's left out
that you felt like make shouldn't make the tournament, but didn't.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
That's shan that the NCAA president was bummed out.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
I don't care if he's bummed out. That's life. Not
everybody to change in Cuba. Tournament cannot be a participation trophy.
Not everybody gets in. Okay, Like that's life. Sometimes you
just don't make the greed. Sometimes you just don't make.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
It really bummed me out.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
Give us something to work for next year. It bummed
me out.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
What that's under five didn't make that?
Speaker 2 (32:09):
S are you bummed out?
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Dude here getting a lot of backside. Somebody get them
an ice cream?
Speaker 2 (32:14):
So he's not.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
That was just not the wording you needed. Charlie Baker
and uh, I mean, why do we even listen to
the NCAA anymore. This is the last thing they have
is the NCAA tournament that it's the relevancy that they're
clinging to.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
John, what's up, Hey.
Speaker 6 (32:28):
Guys, I just wanted to let you know. I'm I'm
really excited about the Purdue game this coming up in
a few games. I hate jalb Lowe's hurt. I wonder who.
I think, probably Amberdeen will be the replacement point guard mostly,
I think maybe Chandler Johnson. They get in there a
(32:48):
little bit, but I do think Purdue may may get
us this time, but it's not going to be that
big a deal. I think it'd be good for us
to see at Radley.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
What do you got?
Speaker 4 (33:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (33:02):
I love this idea of playing Purdue and not just
playing another D one school, but the number one preseason
ranked team in the country. Thanks for the college, John,
And it's gonna be a good test for both teams
to see what you got. And you know, kudos to
Purdue to go on the road and one of the
toughest places to play in college basketball at Rupp Arena
for an exhibition game.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
You get a lot more out of it than.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
Watching Kentucky play the Lithuanian national team like they used
to do in the nineties, or athletes in action. So
I think it's great that they finally have allowed this
to happen and not have to play secret games where
players are sneaking into gyms at midnight so they can
have a secret exhibition game against each other.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
I'm all for it.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
I think it's great for the game of college basketball.
And you know, two nights from now, we're going to
find out what we got. And I don't know what
to expect, to be honest with you, I really it's.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Not the it's not the local YMCI. I think if
you go far back enough, that's who Kentucky would play
during exhibition games. But I just don't know how much
credence to put into it. How much stock do I
put into it? When Kentucky wins by fifteen, I mean,
is Perdue going to be running the plays and sets
that they'll be running in February and March.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
You think you think you's gonna win by fifteen.
Speaker 3 (34:10):
I'm just saying that's a possibility, is it not? And
national championship, Yeah, that's what we do.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
We overreact to everything. If Kentucky beats Purdue without Jalen Low.
Of course we're going to say that.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Sure. It's just it's almost a little bit like NFL preseason, right,
or maybe even like the first week. It's there's a
feel of they're not giving everything that they have. So
but this is a great test to warm yourself up.
Like you said, it's not the local YMCA, it's the
number one team in the country. So you think this
is a thing a group that's probably polished and is
probably ready for a good year, and you should welcome
(34:43):
the challenge.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
Right, absolutely, absolutely. I think our fans are going to
be excited about it. I think, I mean, is it
sold out yet?
Speaker 3 (34:51):
Do we know?
Speaker 2 (34:52):
I would say this game will be sold out?
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Yeah, I'm not sure, not sure about that.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
Yeah, but anyway, we're just two sleeps away from that happening.

I can't. But now, after the use of his same

Coming up next, and a study about earworms. Do you
ever get an earworm? With the song you Can't Get
out of your head?
Speaker 6 (36:31):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (36:31):
Yeah, yeah, I thought you were talking about an actual worm,
not my ear.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
Where are you sing those sties in your eyes or
worms in your ears?
Speaker 2 (36:39):
What is going on at your house?
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Billy? We'll be very fluttered in there.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Just the kisr apprecio.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
Poke.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
See there you go. You're already bobbing your head.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
Well this was middle school, Billy.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
I mean that's right.
Speaker 3 (36:52):
He was jamming of this.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
Lady got got poker face considered it be one of
the biggest earworms of all time. When well, I say earworms,
lest anybody's confused, We're not talking about literal worms in
your ear. We're talking about a song that gets in
your head that you can't get it out of your head.
Good Don't Stop Believing by Journey is another one of
the top ones. Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, Can't Get You
Out of My Head by Kylie Minogue, Moves Like Jagger,
(37:15):
and this one, just to name a few. According to
a new study, though, ninety eight percent of people say
they've had earworms songs that get stuck in their head,
and they say the science behind that, Billy, is because
the brain likes rhythm and cadence. So they say, if
you get an earworm songs stuck in your head, you
just need to listen to the song from start to
finish and usually it goes away.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
Oh I did not know that part. Yeah, there's a
solution to the earworm. Yes, you just listen to it
once and your brain will stop reminding you of it.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
Because sometimes you hear a song and it's maybe midway
through it on the radio, and then you know, you
don't your brain likes that song, it doesn't get enough
of it, so now it's stuck in your head.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
So now they say, if you can go.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
Back and listen to it from start to finish, usually
that goes away. And if that doesn't work, that you
can always put on the night Court.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
So you hit some classics, though probably a few that
you've heard too many times. Don't stop believing.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
Only every day of my life.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
For the last one, I was gonna say, like, how
many l do you have?
Speaker 1 (38:15):
I don't really have them because I hear it too much.
I start to finish. But anyway, so we were talking
yesterday and I mentioned this earlier on the show Lebron
James seeing eating pizza with the fork and no, we're
not talking about deep dish pizza where you know Chicago styles.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Sometimes you have to eat it with the fork.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
Does regular pizza eating it with the fork is psychotic behavior?
Speaker 3 (38:37):
Billy?
Speaker 2 (38:38):
True or false?
Speaker 3 (38:40):
For the most part, true, But I mean there can
be situations. I mean, let's say you just got done work,
in a hard day's work, Shannon, maybe your hands are dirty.
You need some utensil.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
They washed your stinking hands. What are you doing? You
can't You can't pick up the pizza because your hands
are there.
Speaker 3 (38:55):
I'm just giving you a scenario in which somebody could
use a knife and fork.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
In the locker room and working so hard that he
can't wash his hands to pick up the slice of pizza.
Speaker 3 (39:06):
Those basketballs are dirty, So uh, I don't know, but
I'm trying to defend Lebron here a little bit. But
it's it's tough to do. That's just something that feels
more natural picking up with your hands, like a hot dog,
a hamburger. Like is there a Seinfeld episode where they
eat a Snickers bar with fork and knife and the
whole rest of the episode they're just freaking out, So
(39:26):
there is a little psychoticness to it.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Someone writes, watched a guy in a suit and a
tie eat an entire burger at brew Burger with a
fork and a knife, and it changed my life. He
ate the entire thing without a single drop of grease
getting on his shirt.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Well, see, there's another situation. You're in your Sunday best
you don't want to spill any I mean, you put
a hot dog in your hands, a little ketchup and
mustard relish all that all the nine yards, you might
spill a little something on there. So I get that.
Speaker 2 (39:52):
But you're not eating a hot dog with a fork and.
Speaker 3 (39:54):
N But you gotta be the guy eating a hot
dog with a fork and knife. And if you're okay
with that, you're confident in yourself. You got a little
billy co confidence, then go ahead.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
And do it.
Speaker 1 (40:01):
I'm just saying, if you're eating a pizza and it's
not deep dish and you're eating it with a fork
and a knife, I don't trust you.
Speaker 3 (40:07):
Are you judging me for how I am about yourself?
Speaker 4 (40:10):
No?
Speaker 2 (40:11):
I'm like, who is that psychopath over there? Hey? Drew?
What's up? How are you Drew?
Speaker 7 (40:17):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (40:17):
One of guys. I'm doing really well. First of all,
biggest earworm for me is never going to give you up?
By Rick Ashley. You know Rickroll ficks in my head. Yeah,
listen real quick, I know somebody that was a part
of the program, front of the football program from Joker on
to the transition there with coach Stoops. He said that
(40:39):
before the last game was even played that all the
coaches had their their offices cleaned out. I'm wondering if,
because you know, Mitch is really good about not a
really bad baby, I don't know about not firing guys
in the middle of the season, but you know, these
agents they have to be calling. I don't know if
you guys got any inside information or if it's just
a guest. Do you think you're calling right now saying hey,
(41:02):
if you guys get rid of steps, let's talk. Do
you think that's going on right now with some of
these big coaches.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
I have no idea other than to just speculate. I
would say there's probably a good chance when a coach
is on a hot seat, there are some phone calls
being made. And I appreciate the call, Drew, but you
would think that there's probably some phone calls being made
because you have to be self aware, you have to
know the situation you're in, and the agents do as well.
Speaker 2 (41:25):
So I'm sure there's some phone calls going on.
Speaker 3 (41:27):
The agents are always going to work in the best
entrance of their clients, and if that's what Mark Stups wants,
if he wanted to coach at a different school, then yeah,
I think agents would be making a couple calls now.
Are they calling athletic directors? Are they talking to people
on the inside? You know, I'm not sure about that process.
But it's so important to have a coaching staff in
place early in college football, more so this year than
(41:49):
any with the transfer portal and having to make a
jump on those things.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
