Speaker 1 (00:00):
Thank you very much, John Shannon. It is six SOZH
five here Kentucky in his morning news Coffee and company
with you Nick Coffee. That is me and the full
crew is here. You just heard John Shannon. Scott will
be back with sports coming up in about twenty minutes.
And of course the company man himself, mister John Olden
alongside today. So the suspect, who I guess the suspect
is unknown. There's still images from some surveillance footage or
(00:23):
maybe it's I'm not even sure if it's that, or
if it's from cell phone video. Whatever it is, you
could it's everywhere. You can check it out on wlky
dot com. The I mean, I hate even calling it
a photo. It is that because you can't see much.
But the individual who shot and killed a young woman
yesterday is still at large, so just be aware of that.
And this is where I don't I don't want to
(00:45):
mock it or sound insensitive, but as I tell you that,
I'm thinking, well, yeah, there's a lot of people who
murdered someone in Louisville that are roaming our streets because
there's so many unsolved murders. And I'm not I'm not
going out of my way to take a shot at
the inability to close these cases. Clearly it is a
big deal, but this guy is one of many. Now again,
he's probably in a state of mind that well, if
(01:08):
you're somebody that has at this point gotten away with murder,
I'm not sure what your state of mind is. But nonetheless,
just be advised because not only is he dangerous, this
is also someone who you know, we want to see
held accountable and arrested. So, yeah, just an awful day
in Louisville yesterday overall, and two more shootings took place
(01:29):
yesterday that took two lives here in Louisville since the
school bus stop shooting. So we'll keep you updated as
best we can. But obviously that'll be a big talking
point throughout throughout the day here and probably just for
the foreseeable future to a certain extent, because yes, it
is not uncommon to turn on the news, turn on
this station, pop open the social media app and see
a new story about someone in Louisville being a victim
(01:52):
of gun violence and maybe dying. It's just it's not
uncommon at all. In fact, it's fairly common. It'd be
a rarity to have a few days where that didn't happen, right,
So this isn't new. However, the last week has just
seemingly been and I wouldn't even here for a good
stretch of that week, meaning I was I didn't get
back to town until Sunday. But it just feels like
(02:13):
right now there's been more. Again. I keep wanting to
use the word awareness, but that's not really it doesn't
feel like that's the exactly word. This is where I do,
in fact struggle sometimes with the English language because I
just think there's a heightened awareness of wow, this is
this place has gotten like really really bad off when
it comes to violence. But maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm
(02:35):
just viewing it from my own perspective, but yeah, it's
just been a You go back to the initial school
bus stop shooting. Now two juveniles fifteen year olds have
been charged after somebody was charged yesterday and added an
added suspect that's been charged, and then of course the
Friday situation where there was a home invasion, abduction, robbery,
(02:56):
all that with the family that was just gone went
through a tre experience, and then yesterday once again, another
shooting at a school bus stop and it's just it's
it's awful. It really is. I'll tell you what else
is awful, this heat and this humidity. I was thinking
about it yesterday as I was waiting impatiently for my
vehicle to cool up. I've got real good ac in
(03:18):
my car. I mean, I take pride in that. In fact,
I will nothing. Nothing satisfies me more than whenever I
have somebody that i'm that I'm that's riding with me
in my vehicle for for whatever reason, and they compliment, Man,
very c works good. I'm like you, damn right, it
does because I and I have no I have no uh.
I can't claim any any credit for it. It's just
I guess I'm lucky. But yesterday, when I was leaving
(03:39):
the gym, probably because I was hot, I just worked out,
not that you can't tell. It took a while for
me to to get the car at least feeling like
it was giving me any cold air. That was that
was relieving how hot I was. And I just thought,
you know what, I hate August, and I realized August
is I never thought about it, but August is the
worst month of the year in my opinion. Have you
ever given that thought, John, Oh, it is. It is,
(04:01):
so you're not. So I'm not alone here because.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
It's not even just for the heat. But it feels
like you've been deprived. And this is more of a
sports take, but you've been deprived from football for so
long and you're right on the cusp of it beginning again.
It just makes it feel like it goes on forever
for whatever reason.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
So yes, I've always viewed it from the from the
sports side of things, because we've done enough of the
off season talking season football stuff and we're we're so close,
but yet we're not. We are actually close, but it
doesn't seem like it because again, we've already done the
off season chatter, and you really know, if you're a
big sports fan, that this is it's about to get
(04:37):
in gear here, right, It's about to get going to
where you got college football, then you've got the NFL,
then you got college basketball, and clearly those three things,
specifically for us here in this region, that's that's what
dominates interest. So that's exciting, and we've been waiting long
enough and now we're here, but let's get to the
finish line quickly. So yes, I've always viewed it from
that perspective. However, also with even if you're somebody that
(04:58):
likes summer weather and the winner, can you at least
compromise with fall, Like I think you can look forward
to fall. And maybe you're somebody that hates the winner
so much that you hate the fall because it actually
means you're closer to the winner. I love the fall.
I actually think you could make the case that. Well, again,
everybody has their own opinions. I think fall is the
best season for a variety of reasons. Weather's more comfortable,
it's usually pretty beautiful outside, and sports is up and
(05:22):
running really everywhere when it comes to college basketball getting
started and of course the NFL college football. So yeah,
in my worst months of the year rankings, August is
at the top right now, and I don't I don't
see any real competition and.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Put all summer months in the top three. If I'm
being honest, I thought you liked summer. No, I mean,
I like my wife being off work, but I cannot
deal with the humidity the same way that you can't.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yeah, we're alike you and I, So in fact, let's
do this on the other side. I'll give you a
quick update there is a you gov survey that came
out earlier this year that tells us which months Americans
like the most in which ones they dislike the most.
So we'll take a look at that. We'll see how
rare our opinions are. Here, Ari, we've got another update
of trafficking weather coming your way right here, right now.
(06:08):
And I hope you stick with us. Why would you not?
It's to Kentucky at his morning news Coffee and company
right here on news Radio eight forty whas, six seventeen
here at Kentucky and his morning news Coffee and company
with you news Radio eight forty whas. So I'm telling
you August is in a field by itself when it
comes to being my least favorite month. And I thought, okay,
(06:29):
am I in the minority here, and I'm not John Olden.
He also says he's out on August. The hell with August.
Get it out of here, just remove it. Tell just
give us fifteen more days of July and fifteen more
days of September and will act like August doesn't exist.
That's what I would prefer, but I know that won't happen. However,
you Gov gives us a really detailed survey here as
(06:50):
far as the favorite and least favorite months in America,
and they do it by all adults. You can then
pick by region, gender, and age. So the regions are
tough because what are we We're not Midwest, and that's
a different conversation for a different day. Because I do
believe that we are. We're probably not alone. There's other
(07:11):
cities that also kind of feel like they don't have
a home. As far as being Northeast, Midwest, South, or West,
we are probably closer to I don't know, man.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
I think we're technically the gateway to the South once
you cross the Ohio.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
River because we have more i think similarities to the
South than we do the Midwest. But we really don't
comfortably fit in either.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Right, Yeah, I think that's fair.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
But I would say, like northern the northern Kentucky, I
would say is way more identifiable with the Midwest than
they are the South. However, you get like south of Louisville,
I would say you definitely identify more with the South.
So again we got a mixed bag. But anyways, as
far as all adults your favorite month of the year,
we'll start with favorite than least favorite. We we're we're
(07:59):
I mean, we're pretty normal here. You've got October is
the leading vote getter, really, yeah, October, and then you've
got May and June, and yeah, May and June. I'm sorry,
it is October, and then December, followed by May and
June as a tie for third. After that you've got April,
and then you know, the others just don't have enough
(08:22):
votes to where they really crack it. You know, it's
hard to say that. They're like they got barely any
votes compared to the others. Now, the least favorite all adults,
the least favorite month, let's see here, is January. And
I get that because that's just when Christmas is passed.
You're really if you're in, if you're in the where
(08:42):
the winners are terrible, then I'm sure you dread it
and hate it. And then after that you've got February.
But January, by the way, is the he's the leader
among months as far as the one that Americans like
the least. And then after that you've got a close
battle for second. But February has the slight edge five
followed by August, so it's in the top three overall
(09:02):
all adults. Across the entire United States. So and then
from there, some people don't like December. I mean, shame
on you. I hope you get no Christmas presents if
that's the case, because December is really one of my
favorite months. So let's do it by real let's do
it by age. So least favorite month by age. If
you are between let's see, we're we're in the same
(09:25):
level here, thirty through forty four. That's you and I
both actually know. I'm sorry thirty almost. I was just
talking to John Shannon, how I cannot believe how young
you are. So you're eighteen to twenty nine, and for you,
the least favorite is January, and that was the leader overall.
So I feel like every age range that's going to
be In fact it is every age range has has
(09:46):
the leader being January.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
I really don't hate January.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Well again, I think it's because of our culture, because
we love college basketball. I mean, it's just something the
height of it right there. We get so like it's
such we care about it. And this sounds silly, I know,
but we care about college basketball more than anybody in
it's a if you're a big fan, like you know, Okay,
we've got a weekday game, we got a Saturday game.
So everything that typically would be unlikable about January, cold weather,
(10:12):
Christmas coming to an end, it getting dark at five pm.
Sometimes you get distracted by that to an extent because
you have something that you enjoy, like college hoops.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
We don't have that at exactly. So yeah, there you go.
As far as the yeah, let's see here. As far
as the most favorite. As far as age, the leader
for your age range was December, and the same thing
for me. So actually, no, I'm sorry for me. It's October,
so we we're not alike there.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I'd probably go with April or May. Springs my favorite year.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Springs beautiful, no doubt. All Right, we've got an update
of tfficing weather coming your way. Scot's back with another
update on sports as we roll along here on news
radio eight forty whas. Thank you very much. John. It
is six thirty six at Kentucky in this morning news
Coffee and Company. That's us. My name's Nick Coffee. The
full cruise here, John, All in the long side you
just heard John Shannon. Scott will be back with another
sports update coming up in about twenty minutes, you are
(11:05):
about four minutes away from your next update on traffic
and weather. And maybe it's just me, but I feel
like the biggest the time in the morning where I
get up and start my commute, which is very early,
I would say compared to most but I could be wrong,
but the roadways tell me that I'm not wrong. So
usually I'm on the road by about four am, three thirty.
(11:30):
Between three thirty and four am, what I've noticed though,
is that I don't need to get here as early
as as I have been initially, so that's actually giving
me a chance to sleep in a little bit longer
than I was in the first few weeks. But but I'm
getting I think the emptiness that is there when school
is not in session is really noticeable. And it's not
(11:50):
like we've got rush hour traffic at four am, but man,
there's a lot of people on the roadway now compared
to what it was previously, which again is just a
reminder of how many people in in this city are.
Their day starts with some type of when they start
their day is somehow a factor of what JCPS does,
(12:12):
because maybe they work for the school system, maybe they
have to get their kids somewhere super early because they've
got to get them in childcare to then get on
the bus. So everybody's situation is different. But yeah, these
last couple of days now that really everybody is back
to school, busier roadways, so again that could mean that
we could have more traffic issues. So we'll get an
update on traffic coming your way in about two and
a half minutes here from Bobby Elli's. Also another update
(12:34):
on the forecast with Matt Melosovich of WLKY. So when
it comes to the news currently from yesterday, well, the
current update on the yesterday's news at the school bus
stop where a woman was shot and fatally killed, her
identity is yet to be released. However, there are many
loved ones friends that have shared social media posts and
(12:55):
they're calling she I guess she goes up goes by
the name Juicy. That is the name that Pia friends
say their friend known as Juicy was. You know, friends
are confirming, family members are confirming that in fact, that
is who was shot and killed. So the identity has
yet to be released. I'm sure that'll happen here soon.
But yeah, there's still a suspect at large here because
(13:17):
the fifteen year old that they took into custody yesterday
at Shawne High School ended up not being the suspect,
which is good news that it wasn't a fifteen year
old kid. But if we find out that it is
in fact a minor, I'm not going to be shocked
by any means, So be on the lookout. The pictures
are everywhere when it comes to the local news, and
obviously you can see it on our social media pages
(13:38):
here at eight forty whas as well as woky dot com.
And hopefully they can find this suspect sooner rather than later.
But when it comes to the violent crime that is
either juveniles that are the victims or they're the perpetrators,
clearly that has become a real big issue. It's not
(14:00):
that it's new. I mean last year. In fact, I
think up until June June of this time last year
there was actually more violent crime involving juveniles, which was
surprising to a lot of people. But either way, it's
an issue at any level. Right if it happens once,
it's an issue. I don't want to make light of
it like, oh yeah, we'll do a few of those
juvenile murders. We'll do bad. No, I mean, I'm just
(14:20):
any time it happens, it's bad. But like right now,
I feel like there's more awareness of it than ever,
and it's just because it's not getting any better, right
and I really can't get over the fact that we
just don't have anything in place that will actually get
these violent people off the streets. Yeah, they're kids, some
(14:43):
of them as young as like thirteen years old, but
they're also violent. They're a threat, and there's also a
level of being that young and naive ignorant to the world.
To me, it adds an element of you being more
scary to me. You know, you don't really know what
you're doing, meaning like you're not you're not you're clearly
(15:04):
not thinking your life through, knowing that you're making decisions
that could cost you your life in a variety of ways.
You could die, or you could end up in prison,
or maybe you won't end up in prison. Because when
it comes down to it, like some of these people
that are committing violent crimes that are that are children
under eighteen years of age, and I suppose it depends
on what level of crime they committed. They're just being
(15:24):
held until somebody can come and get them, and that
is not only not the right way to go, it's
just fueling the world of violent crime in Louisville. Because
if you don't think that these juveniles are being led
into this lifestyle by gang members, I mean, not every
situation is the same, but I mean look at some
(15:47):
of these, like the carjacking situations that's taken place in
recent years. I mean that has been tied to Again,
not every situation is the same. Where they're working. I
mean they're they're they're young gang members. I guess just
doing that, doing the dirt that that the others don't
want to do. They've got young, stupid kids that'll do
it for them. And it gives these kids who have
no parents at home, nobody that's ever probably made them
(16:09):
feel as if they have any worth or any value,
and now they found somewhere where they feel like they belong.
And unfortunately it's with a violent gang where they're committing
violent crime, and that it's just it's a cycle that
some's got to give, and I think that something is
start incarcerating these children for their own good and for
the good of this city. And as we discussed a
(16:31):
couple of days ago, it's at the state level. The
state has to take initiative and get the ball rolling
here to get this process started. And when that happens,
I don't know. I've got some theories as to why
they don't seem real concerned about it, and we'll talk
about that coming up here next. Again, your next update
of trafficking weather's right here right now on news Radio
(16:52):
eight forty whas a couple of minutes away from your
next update on traffic and weather, so stick around for that.
Sorry for my poor clock management so far today. I'll
do better. In fact, I have. I've had to do
better with the change here to has. But this will
be a quick segment and I'll try to keep us
on track the rest of the way to where we
(17:12):
don't have, you know, two minute segments. That's on me.
I'll do better. But when it comes to they're no
longer being a juvenile attention center here in Louisville, and
clearly they're never seemingly being a bigger need for one
than right now. It's perplexing, right and at the state level,
that's where the that's where the wheels got to get
moving in order for that to actually happen. And it
(17:34):
hasn't happened yet, and there's no real there's no real
belief that there's any date set or a date that
they're targeting. And it was counselman, Uh, I'm in my
head now about Nogentini. I mean, I think and again
I could see you could tell me. Once I get
(17:56):
a name wrong, then I just I always second guess
it if I'm getting it right, So I think it's
Pa Agentini, but if it's not, I apologize to to
this individual. But he was momentary minors. We played the
sound earlier this week, and he was just he mentioned
that specifically that there's just no there's nobody at the
state level that's that's really making this a priority, and
(18:17):
that's unfortunate. But one thing that hadn't really hit me
until he he he brought it up. But it's so true.
You know, what you're exposed to, what your environment is,
that that has a big it's a big factor in
just sort of your state of mind and like and
you know you're in your own bubble to an extent, Well,
if you're in Louisville every day wherever, wherever it may be,
(18:37):
East End, West End, downtown, you know you're you're exposed
to a world really that is different than the rest
of the state of Kentucky. I mean, think about that,
the vast majority of this state, they're not exposed to
anything like we are here. And I don't mean just
the violent crime, but a lot of things. I mean,
Louisville is a is a big city, and there's really
no comparison as far as a city that is the
(18:59):
same size than Louisville. I mean, Lexington's a bigger city
than the rest, but it's not close to Louisville as
far as size. So when they're not when they when
it's not their community and they're not waking up and
living every day, going to work, sending kids to school,
they're not thinking about the violent crime that takes place
in Louisville and how a lot of it lately has
(19:20):
been juveniles that are that are a part of it. So,
you know, I don't know what we got to do
to do to let them know. I mean, Basher's been
in town for the Ford announcement, certainly for the ge
And I mean I'm being tongue in cheek here as
far as like does he know, clearly he knows, but
like something needs to be done. There needs to be
some kind of action taken because the current, the current
(19:41):
arrangement where these juveniles really until they do take someone's life,
they're not really held accountable as far as being incarcerated.
That's that's benefiting those that really are the leaders of
violent crime in Louisville, meaning gangs. All right, we've got
an update of Travling the weather coming your way. Also
another update on sports right here on news radio eight
forty w h S
Thank you very much, John Shannon. It is six SOZH
five here Kentucky in his morning news Coffee and company
with you Nick Coffee. That is me and the full
crew is here. You just heard John Shannon. Scott will
be back with sports coming up in about twenty minutes.
And of course the company man himself, mister John Olden
alongside today. So the suspect, who I guess the suspect
is unknown. There's still images from some surveillance footage or
(00:23):
maybe it's I'm not even sure if it's that, or
if it's from cell phone video. Whatever it is, you
could it's everywhere. You can check it out on wlky
dot com. The I mean, I hate even calling it
a photo. It is that because you can't see much.
But the individual who shot and killed a young woman
yesterday is still at large, so just be aware of that.
And this is where I don't I don't want to
(00:45):
mock it or sound insensitive, but as I tell you that,
I'm thinking, well, yeah, there's a lot of people who
murdered someone in Louisville that are roaming our streets because
there's so many unsolved murders. And I'm not I'm not
going out of my way to take a shot at
the inability to close these cases. Clearly it is a
big deal, but this guy is one of many. Now again,
he's probably in a state of mind that well, if
(01:08):
you're somebody that has at this point gotten away with murder,
I'm not sure what your state of mind is. But nonetheless,
just be advised because not only is he dangerous, this
is also someone who you know, we want to see
held accountable and arrested. So, yeah, just an awful day
in Louisville yesterday overall, and two more shootings took place
(01:29):
yesterday that took two lives here in Louisville since the
school bus stop shooting. So we'll keep you updated as
best we can. But obviously that'll be a big talking
point throughout throughout the day here and probably just for
the foreseeable future to a certain extent, because yes, it
is not uncommon to turn on the news, turn on
this station, pop open the social media app and see
a new story about someone in Louisville being a victim
(01:52):
of gun violence and maybe dying. It's just it's not
uncommon at all. In fact, it's fairly common. It'd be
a rarity to have a few days where that didn't happen, right,
So this isn't new. However, the last week has just
seemingly been and I wouldn't even here for a good
stretch of that week, meaning I was I didn't get
back to town until Sunday. But it just feels like
(02:13):
right now there's been more. Again. I keep wanting to
use the word awareness, but that's not really it doesn't
feel like that's the exactly word. This is where I do,
in fact struggle sometimes with the English language because I
just think there's a heightened awareness of wow, this is
this place has gotten like really really bad off when
it comes to violence. But maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm
(02:35):
just viewing it from my own perspective, but yeah, it's
just been a You go back to the initial school
bus stop shooting. Now two juveniles fifteen year olds have
been charged after somebody was charged yesterday and added an
added suspect that's been charged, and then of course the
Friday situation where there was a home invasion, abduction, robbery,
(02:56):
all that with the family that was just gone went
through a tre experience, and then yesterday once again, another
shooting at a school bus stop and it's just it's
it's awful. It really is. I'll tell you what else
is awful, this heat and this humidity. I was thinking
about it yesterday as I was waiting impatiently for my
vehicle to cool up. I've got real good ac in
(03:18):
my car. I mean, I take pride in that. In fact,
I will nothing. Nothing satisfies me more than whenever I
have somebody that i'm that I'm that's riding with me
in my vehicle for for whatever reason, and they compliment, Man,
very c works good. I'm like you, damn right, it
does because I and I have no I have no uh.
I can't claim any any credit for it. It's just
I guess I'm lucky. But yesterday, when I was leaving
(03:39):
the gym, probably because I was hot, I just worked out,
not that you can't tell. It took a while for
me to to get the car at least feeling like
it was giving me any cold air. That was that
was relieving how hot I was. And I just thought,
you know what, I hate August, and I realized August
is I never thought about it, but August is the
worst month of the year in my opinion. Have you
ever given that thought, John, Oh, it is. It is,
(04:01):
so you're not. So I'm not alone here because.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
It's not even just for the heat. But it feels
like you've been deprived. And this is more of a
sports take, but you've been deprived from football for so
long and you're right on the cusp of it beginning again.
It just makes it feel like it goes on forever
for whatever reason.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
So yes, I've always viewed it from the from the
sports side of things, because we've done enough of the
off season talking season football stuff and we're we're so close,
but yet we're not. We are actually close, but it
doesn't seem like it because again, we've already done the
off season chatter, and you really know, if you're a
big sports fan, that this is it's about to get
(04:37):
in gear here, right, It's about to get going to
where you got college football, then you've got the NFL,
then you got college basketball, and clearly those three things,
specifically for us here in this region, that's that's what
dominates interest. So that's exciting, and we've been waiting long
enough and now we're here, but let's get to the
finish line quickly. So yes, I've always viewed it from
that perspective. However, also with even if you're somebody that
(04:58):
likes summer weather and the winner, can you at least
compromise with fall, Like I think you can look forward
to fall. And maybe you're somebody that hates the winner
so much that you hate the fall because it actually
means you're closer to the winner. I love the fall.
I actually think you could make the case that. Well, again,
everybody has their own opinions. I think fall is the
best season for a variety of reasons. Weather's more comfortable,
it's usually pretty beautiful outside, and sports is up and
(05:22):
running really everywhere when it comes to college basketball getting
started and of course the NFL college football. So yeah,
in my worst months of the year rankings, August is
at the top right now, and I don't I don't
see any real competition and.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Put all summer months in the top three. If I'm
being honest, I thought you liked summer. No, I mean,
I like my wife being off work, but I cannot
deal with the humidity the same way that you can't.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yeah, we're alike you and I, So in fact, let's
do this on the other side. I'll give you a
quick update there is a you gov survey that came
out earlier this year that tells us which months Americans
like the most in which ones they dislike the most.
So we'll take a look at that. We'll see how
rare our opinions are. Here, Ari, we've got another update
of trafficking weather coming your way right here, right now.
(06:08):
And I hope you stick with us. Why would you not?
It's to Kentucky at his morning news Coffee and company
right here on news Radio eight forty whas, six seventeen
here at Kentucky and his morning news Coffee and company
with you news Radio eight forty whas. So I'm telling
you August is in a field by itself when it
comes to being my least favorite month. And I thought, okay,
(06:29):
am I in the minority here, and I'm not John Olden.
He also says he's out on August. The hell with August.
Get it out of here, just remove it. Tell just
give us fifteen more days of July and fifteen more
days of September and will act like August doesn't exist.
That's what I would prefer, but I know that won't happen. However,
you Gov gives us a really detailed survey here as
(06:50):
far as the favorite and least favorite months in America,
and they do it by all adults. You can then
pick by region, gender, and age. So the regions are
tough because what are we We're not Midwest, and that's
a different conversation for a different day. Because I do
believe that we are. We're probably not alone. There's other
(07:11):
cities that also kind of feel like they don't have
a home. As far as being Northeast, Midwest, South, or West,
we are probably closer to I don't know, man.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
I think we're technically the gateway to the South once
you cross the Ohio.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
River because we have more i think similarities to the
South than we do the Midwest. But we really don't
comfortably fit in either.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Right, Yeah, I think that's fair.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
But I would say, like northern the northern Kentucky, I
would say is way more identifiable with the Midwest than
they are the South. However, you get like south of Louisville,
I would say you definitely identify more with the South.
So again we got a mixed bag. But anyways, as
far as all adults your favorite month of the year,
we'll start with favorite than least favorite. We we're we're
(07:59):
I mean, we're pretty normal here. You've got October is
the leading vote getter, really, yeah, October, and then you've
got May and June, and yeah, May and June. I'm sorry,
it is October, and then December, followed by May and
June as a tie for third. After that you've got April,
and then you know, the others just don't have enough
(08:22):
votes to where they really crack it. You know, it's
hard to say that. They're like they got barely any
votes compared to the others. Now, the least favorite all adults,
the least favorite month, let's see here, is January. And
I get that because that's just when Christmas is passed.
You're really if you're in, if you're in the where
(08:42):
the winners are terrible, then I'm sure you dread it
and hate it. And then after that you've got February.
But January, by the way, is the he's the leader
among months as far as the one that Americans like
the least. And then after that you've got a close
battle for second. But February has the slight edge five
followed by August, so it's in the top three overall
(09:02):
all adults. Across the entire United States. So and then
from there, some people don't like December. I mean, shame
on you. I hope you get no Christmas presents if
that's the case, because December is really one of my
favorite months. So let's do it by real let's do
it by age. So least favorite month by age. If
you are between let's see, we're we're in the same
(09:25):
level here, thirty through forty four. That's you and I
both actually know. I'm sorry thirty almost. I was just
talking to John Shannon, how I cannot believe how young
you are. So you're eighteen to twenty nine, and for you,
the least favorite is January, and that was the leader overall.
So I feel like every age range that's going to
be In fact it is every age range has has
(09:46):
the leader being January.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
I really don't hate January.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Well again, I think it's because of our culture, because
we love college basketball. I mean, it's just something the
height of it right there. We get so like it's
such we care about it. And this sounds silly, I know,
but we care about college basketball more than anybody in
it's a if you're a big fan, like you know, Okay,
we've got a weekday game, we got a Saturday game.
So everything that typically would be unlikable about January, cold weather,
(10:12):
Christmas coming to an end, it getting dark at five pm.
Sometimes you get distracted by that to an extent because
you have something that you enjoy, like college hoops.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
We don't have that at exactly. So yeah, there you go.
As far as the yeah, let's see here. As far
as the most favorite. As far as age, the leader
for your age range was December, and the same thing
for me. So actually, no, I'm sorry for me. It's October,
so we we're not alike there.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I'd probably go with April or May. Springs my favorite year.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Springs beautiful, no doubt. All Right, we've got an update
of tfficing weather coming your way. Scot's back with another
update on sports as we roll along here on news
radio eight forty whas. Thank you very much. John. It
is six thirty six at Kentucky in this morning news
Coffee and Company. That's us. My name's Nick Coffee. The
full cruise here, John, All in the long side you
just heard John Shannon. Scott will be back with another
sports update coming up in about twenty minutes, you are
(11:05):
about four minutes away from your next update on traffic
and weather. And maybe it's just me, but I feel
like the biggest the time in the morning where I
get up and start my commute, which is very early,
I would say compared to most but I could be wrong,
but the roadways tell me that I'm not wrong. So
usually I'm on the road by about four am, three thirty.
(11:30):
Between three thirty and four am, what I've noticed though,
is that I don't need to get here as early
as as I have been initially, so that's actually giving
me a chance to sleep in a little bit longer
than I was in the first few weeks. But but I'm
getting I think the emptiness that is there when school
is not in session is really noticeable. And it's not
(11:50):
like we've got rush hour traffic at four am, but man,
there's a lot of people on the roadway now compared
to what it was previously, which again is just a
reminder of how many people in in this city are.
Their day starts with some type of when they start
their day is somehow a factor of what JCPS does,
(12:12):
because maybe they work for the school system, maybe they
have to get their kids somewhere super early because they've
got to get them in childcare to then get on
the bus. So everybody's situation is different. But yeah, these
last couple of days now that really everybody is back
to school, busier roadways, so again that could mean that
we could have more traffic issues. So we'll get an
update on traffic coming your way in about two and
a half minutes here from Bobby Elli's. Also another update
(12:34):
on the forecast with Matt Melosovich of WLKY. So when
it comes to the news currently from yesterday, well, the
current update on the yesterday's news at the school bus
stop where a woman was shot and fatally killed, her
identity is yet to be released. However, there are many
loved ones friends that have shared social media posts and
(12:55):
they're calling she I guess she goes up goes by
the name Juicy. That is the name that Pia friends
say their friend known as Juicy was. You know, friends
are confirming, family members are confirming that in fact, that
is who was shot and killed. So the identity has
yet to be released. I'm sure that'll happen here soon.
But yeah, there's still a suspect at large here because
(13:17):
the fifteen year old that they took into custody yesterday
at Shawne High School ended up not being the suspect,
which is good news that it wasn't a fifteen year
old kid. But if we find out that it is
in fact a minor, I'm not going to be shocked
by any means, So be on the lookout. The pictures
are everywhere when it comes to the local news, and
obviously you can see it on our social media pages
(13:38):
here at eight forty whas as well as woky dot com.
And hopefully they can find this suspect sooner rather than later.
But when it comes to the violent crime that is
either juveniles that are the victims or they're the perpetrators,
clearly that has become a real big issue. It's not
(14:00):
that it's new. I mean last year. In fact, I
think up until June June of this time last year
there was actually more violent crime involving juveniles, which was
surprising to a lot of people. But either way, it's
an issue at any level. Right if it happens once,
it's an issue. I don't want to make light of
it like, oh yeah, we'll do a few of those
juvenile murders. We'll do bad. No, I mean, I'm just
(14:20):
any time it happens, it's bad. But like right now,
I feel like there's more awareness of it than ever,
and it's just because it's not getting any better, right
and I really can't get over the fact that we
just don't have anything in place that will actually get
these violent people off the streets. Yeah, they're kids, some
(14:43):
of them as young as like thirteen years old, but
they're also violent. They're a threat, and there's also a
level of being that young and naive ignorant to the world.
To me, it adds an element of you being more
scary to me. You know, you don't really know what
you're doing, meaning like you're not you're not you're clearly
(15:04):
not thinking your life through, knowing that you're making decisions
that could cost you your life in a variety of ways.
You could die, or you could end up in prison,
or maybe you won't end up in prison. Because when
it comes down to it, like some of these people
that are committing violent crimes that are that are children
under eighteen years of age, and I suppose it depends
on what level of crime they committed. They're just being
(15:24):
held until somebody can come and get them, and that
is not only not the right way to go, it's
just fueling the world of violent crime in Louisville. Because
if you don't think that these juveniles are being led
into this lifestyle by gang members, I mean, not every
situation is the same, but I mean look at some
(15:47):
of these, like the carjacking situations that's taken place in
recent years. I mean that has been tied to Again,
not every situation is the same. Where they're working. I
mean they're they're they're young gang members. I guess just
doing that, doing the dirt that that the others don't
want to do. They've got young, stupid kids that'll do
it for them. And it gives these kids who have
no parents at home, nobody that's ever probably made them
(16:09):
feel as if they have any worth or any value,
and now they found somewhere where they feel like they belong.
And unfortunately it's with a violent gang where they're committing
violent crime, and that it's just it's a cycle that
some's got to give, and I think that something is
start incarcerating these children for their own good and for
the good of this city. And as we discussed a
(16:31):
couple of days ago, it's at the state level. The
state has to take initiative and get the ball rolling
here to get this process started. And when that happens,
I don't know. I've got some theories as to why
they don't seem real concerned about it, and we'll talk
about that coming up here next. Again, your next update
of trafficking weather's right here right now on news Radio
(16:52):
eight forty whas a couple of minutes away from your
next update on traffic and weather, so stick around for that.
Sorry for my poor clock management so far today. I'll
do better. In fact, I have. I've had to do
better with the change here to has. But this will
be a quick segment and I'll try to keep us
on track the rest of the way to where we
(17:12):
don't have, you know, two minute segments. That's on me.
I'll do better. But when it comes to they're no
longer being a juvenile attention center here in Louisville, and
clearly they're never seemingly being a bigger need for one
than right now. It's perplexing, right and at the state level,
that's where the that's where the wheels got to get
moving in order for that to actually happen. And it
(17:34):
hasn't happened yet, and there's no real there's no real
belief that there's any date set or a date that
they're targeting. And it was counselman, Uh, I'm in my
head now about Nogentini. I mean, I think and again
I could see you could tell me. Once I get
(17:56):
a name wrong, then I just I always second guess
it if I'm getting it right, So I think it's
Pa Agentini, but if it's not, I apologize to to
this individual. But he was momentary minors. We played the
sound earlier this week, and he was just he mentioned
that specifically that there's just no there's nobody at the
state level that's that's really making this a priority, and
(18:17):
that's unfortunate. But one thing that hadn't really hit me
until he he he brought it up. But it's so true.
You know, what you're exposed to, what your environment is,
that that has a big it's a big factor in
just sort of your state of mind and like and
you know you're in your own bubble to an extent, Well,
if you're in Louisville every day wherever, wherever it may be,
(18:37):
East End, West End, downtown, you know you're you're exposed
to a world really that is different than the rest
of the state of Kentucky. I mean, think about that,
the vast majority of this state, they're not exposed to
anything like we are here. And I don't mean just
the violent crime, but a lot of things. I mean,
Louisville is a is a big city, and there's really
no comparison as far as a city that is the
(18:59):
same size than Louisville. I mean, Lexington's a bigger city
than the rest, but it's not close to Louisville as
far as size. So when they're not when they when
it's not their community and they're not waking up and
living every day, going to work, sending kids to school,
they're not thinking about the violent crime that takes place
in Louisville and how a lot of it lately has
(19:20):
been juveniles that are that are a part of it. So,
you know, I don't know what we got to do
to do to let them know. I mean, Basher's been
in town for the Ford announcement, certainly for the ge
And I mean I'm being tongue in cheek here as
far as like does he know, clearly he knows, but
like something needs to be done. There needs to be
some kind of action taken because the current, the current
(19:41):
arrangement where these juveniles really until they do take someone's life,
they're not really held accountable as far as being incarcerated.
That's that's benefiting those that really are the leaders of
violent crime in Louisville, meaning gangs. All right, we've got
an update of Travling the weather coming your way. Also
another update on sports right here on news radio eight
