Watermack I number two tell you sports radio if I'm
nine twenty two eighty seven. We're doing first time callers.
I see Jay Rock. You can't put him on right?

Speaker 4 (01:15):
Well?

Speaker 3 (01:15):

he was a frish.

I'm sorry, Rock, this is just first time caller. Jay Rock.
Just hang up or you can hang out bud him chair.
We'll hang up on him, all right.

Speaker 5 (01:25):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:25):
And in Roscoe? Isn't he a caller before Roscoe?

Speaker 3 (01:29):
I think has called your post game show, but never
the morning show.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
Okay, I'll let him do it.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
I think we should allow that.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Hey, Rock, you have to go. I'm sorry, like we're
not gonna let you on. It's first time callers today.
And Ian, by the way, is filling in. He's worked
here a long time. And Ian this will be his
first time doing KSR tomorrow. So the Dirk was the dunk?
Was Dirk Mini Field to Sam Bowie.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
Yeah, guy text me said he was there, and he
says the loud one of the last time he's ever
heard roperena bits interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
I know that I've ever seen that dunk. Somebody just
sent it to me. I guess I'll watch it in
a minute. One person writes and goes, Matt, there was
a girl at my high school. I'm thirty seven. Her
name was Helen, and even then she went by Ellie
because she thought Helen was an old woman's name. Well
she would be correct, it is. I was thinking about all.

(02:19):
I have three grandmothers that I was close to, and
their names were Helen, Clara, and Margaret. Do people are
people named any of those names anymore?

Speaker 1 (02:31):
You got the whole Andy Griffith show cast there.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
I'm not that's true. Wait a minute, I had Clara.
What was Claire's name? Was Helen Crump?

Speaker 6 (02:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Yeah, Clara was ant Bee's friend, right, Yeah. And I
don't think there was a Margaret. Is there anyone under
fifty that is any of those three names? I doubt it.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
I mean maybe we'll get maybe a Margaret, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
Yeah, that they go by Maggie or so. There's some
Margarets always see I always think I forget that names
like Maggie. There are lots of Maggie's.

Speaker 7 (03:07):
Yeah, I think Margaret shouldn't be in the same conversation
with Helen and others.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
Maggie's are Margaret's.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
I think generally there may be some exceptions.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
I didn't know, you know what, that had never came
to my.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
Like, fuck, that's cheating though, you should be Margie.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
I thought like Maggie Davis who used to work with us.
I thought Maggie. I thought that was just her name.
But you're saying like her birth certificate probably says Drew Margaret.
I haven't seen her burst too yet.

Speaker 8 (03:32):
Baby.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
I know other I do know.

Speaker 7 (03:35):
I mean I assume, yes, well, I mean I do know.
Some Maggies that I know for sure are Margaret's. I'm
not because of on Maggie Davis, but yes, it is
a common shortening of Margaret.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
I didn't know Ellie was short for Helen though. You
said that girl goes by Ellie instead of Helen. Is
that so?

Speaker 2 (03:48):
Does that mean all the Eli's we know are are
Helen's now they're Ellen's. Ellie's Elizabeth too? Oh yeah, okay,
So this girl just just was like, my name's now Ellen,
and that's what I decided, uh to do. Where are
we tomorrow? Ryan Lockridge Park.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
It's technically in Garrett County, but it overlooks the river
right by Old Bridge golf Course in Danville. It sits
up way up high on the hill there and it's
really cool. It's a grand opening tomorrow and we're giving
away tickets to the Food City five hundred tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
Also the Bristol Race. Yes, oh wow, so it's called
so if I put in Lockridge Park, it'll take me there.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
Yeah, Lockridge Park.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
And it's in Garrett County.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Technically in Garrett County, but like I said, it overlooks
the Old Bridge golf course there kind of I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
The river all right, so but but in Garrett County.
We've done one show in Garrett County too, maybe over
the years. And yeah, we just wanted a bank in
Lancaster that one time.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
I remember.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Okay, well, Garrett County. Come, we're giving away tickets to Bristol.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Yeah, and Syndicate Dune's gonna cater food. Therefore barbecue truck.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Is awesome. Well that's a good combo for a show. Yeah,
take off and come tomorrow. That's a good combo in
Garret County if you've never been. Tickets to Bristol and
his barbecue will be uh will be great. Okay. A
couple of things real quick before we go the PUNEs.
I'm leaving after the show, Ryan and going to Columbus
for the Canes tonight. That try it.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
I forgot you're going to the Canes game tonight.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Canes versus Blue Jackets. I splurged a little bit. Shannon
bought tickets on the third row. I'm going to knock
the people off the first and second row and bang
on the glass.

Speaker 3 (05:25):
If there's a hat trick while you throw your hat
on the ice.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah, sure, why not. I've got my jersey, you know,
I feel like hockey jerseys, the one jersey you can wear.
You can wear it, and you can and as my svetching,
the cough jersey. And my hope is you know how
they play and they'll like hit each other into the glass.
I want to be sitting there and bang on it.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
It's a tough guy on the other side of the glass.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Well that's what people do. Yeah, they bang on the
glass when they come up next to you. You're gonna
be an enemy territory via all you think. And the
tickets were I mean, I say I splurged. They were expended,
but they weren't what you would think for that level
because they that team, the Columbus stinks, but it's a
long drive. So I'm driving back after the game, so

(06:08):
I'll be so that's gonna be a long drive back too.
But that's all right though I do I don't know
if I love driving that much, but I mean the
Canes this is along in Nashville, the closest they ever
are here. So uh so, Drew, I'm going to the
Canes tonight and.

Speaker 7 (06:24):
Then straight to to Lankister. I wonder how many people
at the Canes game will be heading to Lockridge Park
to Lockridge Park.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
And I think is doing it. And uh, Kouchi that's
the name of the goalie, Shannon. They call him Kouchie,
have an a and a Kuchie. Well, I mean most
hockey players are for right, so they're they're from all over.
There's a cocaine Emmy, There's an a ho, there's oh
I just saw. I just realized how shit and Brian's

(06:52):
Ryan's brain was working there. Shannon the ah ho and
and Couchie. That's what we wonder is why women don't
like it. But anyway, his name is like catch catching
the coffer and they call him Kouchi. And that's our goalie.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
Okay, well, I'll have to watch I don't really watch
a whole lot.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
If you get, you get. You've been doing that for
a while, all right, So, uh, it's where switching gears.
Mitch McConnell. You've heard of him.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
I've heard of him.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
He is stepping down as leader of the Senate. He's
going to keep his seat, but starting in November, he's
not going to be the leader anymore. He's going to
give that up. And uh, I think a lot of
people thought he was going to to retire because people
immediately started texting me and going, are you going to run?

(07:49):
And the answer was no. But right now there's not
anything to run for anyway, because he's not stepping down.
But after he has been in the Senate since No.
Nineteen eighty four, forty years of being in the Senate,
he is now Ryan stepping down as the leader.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
So Mitch, please, you know, and we all said this,
you know, when he had some health issues. You you know,
you're an older gentleman like that, you have to be
concerned about things like that. So I hope it's not
because of that, you know.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
Well, maybe it's because he's been off his for forty years. Yeah,
maybe it's a long time to Duke get to have
someone else do it right.

Speaker 7 (08:29):
Imagine how good it's gonna fall. I know he's not
completely leaving, but when he just doesn't have to wear
a suit anymore forty years of wearing a suit, that
sounds awful. I'm excited for a man to just throw
on a T shirt. Some sweats have a normal day.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
You could wear like that Reed Shepherd T shirt than Deanados.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
He's gonna get Ryan's impersonation of him anymore, That's true.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
That's what I did think is would you like to
just say goodbye to the to the citizens of Kentucky
as the Senate leader?

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Oh? Wana, I want to. I want to thank Mark
for having me along, and I want to thank the
people of Tennessee for having me represent them all these years.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
And I still can't find my socks. That was a beautiful,
inspiring message. Yeah, from our Let me say this about Minch.
I wrote a whole book being critical and saying my
various thoughts about him over the year, so I don't
need to repeat all that. I will say this. On
two different occasions, a listener of this show had a

(09:27):
situation where they were in need of some pretty immediate help.
And a pretty high level help. I don't not to
go into what they were, but they were listeners to
the show twice different situations, but both in need of
something pretty quickly and pretty immediate. They contacted me and said,

(09:48):
I don't know what else to do. And both times
I contacted McConnell's office. And even though you know, I
thought about running against him, I'd written a very critical
book of him and have been very critic over the years.
Both times, because it was a Kentuckian, they were able
to not only help those people in both cases help

(10:09):
them in a very dire situation. And I was always
grateful to that. That's what it should be about. Yeah,
and at a time, I'm a big believer when people
are finishing, you note those things. And so I do
think as he is preparing to step down, I will
always be grateful to him for that. And I know

(10:32):
those people who no one knows who they are except
me in that office, I know they feel the same way. Jeff,
go ahead, Jeff.

Speaker 9 (10:42):
Hey, Matt, I'm a tail light baby from not County,
and I wanted to talk about a couple of things
from the Eastern Kentucky versus Western Kentucky.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Wait, what does that mean? Tail light? Baby? Does that
mean like your parents got it on in the car?

Speaker 9 (10:58):
Well, no, it's a delight yolka thing. You've talked about
that before. You know, my parents don't know what.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
He's talking about. I don't know either, I tell late baby.

Speaker 9 (11:08):
Yeah, you know, my family's from eastern Kentucky and we
moved up north and I.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Never okay, I mean I know that, I don't know
that I've registered. So it's not that your parents conceived
you in the call. Yeah, like I thought, stand it, Okay,
I got you. Yeah, a lot of people moved from
eastern Kentucky to like Detroit or to where the factory.
I understand that. I didn't know that that was the phrase, but.

Speaker 9 (11:33):
Go ahead, Oh okay, yeah, yeah, that's exactly where it
moved to, was Detroit. But yeah, I mean so, I mean,
I've got two things, if you'll let me quickly, okay,
all right, okay, I think there's a subcategory of the
mountains from Nott County. I had to drive forty five

(11:53):
minutes to McDonald's. If you had a Ponderosa five minutes away,
you know, I think that's a different experience.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
But you're not. You don't live there. You did you
grow up there? Or is this like a JD Vance thing?

Speaker 9 (12:08):
No, I spent my summers there.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
See that's JD Lady Dance, that's JD Vance. Now look,
I'm not saying you're not like kind of mountains, but
if you just spent your summers there, that's not the
same as living there.

Speaker 9 (12:23):
Okay, but I'm just saying, I mean, you know, okay,
all right, Well that was my first point. But the
second point is if you'll let me so, I live
outside of Memphis, Tennessee there. I was in Lows a
couple of years ago. I see a guy in Kentucky
gear and I go up to him. I'm like, go cats,

(12:44):
where are you from? And he was like, and I'm sorry, Drew.
You know is like Owensboro, Bowling Green, you know, somewhere
out west. And he's like, where are you from? And
I'm like, not county. And then we had nothing in common.

Speaker 2 (12:55):
It was like you were from but I mean again,
you were from Detroit.

Speaker 9 (13:02):
I consider myself mostly from Kentucky. I'm about ready to
retire there.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Okay, Well that's good. Well I hope you come back.
We'd love to have you, and I appreciate the call.
I do think when people leave eastern Kentucky they do
feel a sense of connection to the area. But let
me ask you this, Ryan, if you live in a
go to school in a place, and that's where you
were born, but then visit in the off season, where

(13:30):
are you from Detroit or not County?

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Well, I would say you're from Detroit.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
Right, Shannon, aren't you from Detroit?

Speaker 5 (13:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (13:37):
Yeah, if that situation, you're from Detroit.

Speaker 6 (13:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
I mean I grew up in Indiana.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
But I've lived in Kentucky a lot longer than I
did in Indiana, but I still consider myself from Indiana.

Speaker 7 (13:47):
Yeah, you don't have any experiences. That's why I couldn't
talk to the person about things because they didn't have
much living here.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
Yeah. I'm not trying to understand, like you could have
Kentucky in your heart like you're a fan. But that's
different than Wait up there, Marcia is on the phone,
isn't she.

Speaker 1 (14:03):

Speaker 2 (14:50):
Welcome back. It is Kentucky Sports Radio. If I'm nine
two eight oh twenty two eighty seven, our guy Ryan
from Indiana State a V. Yeah, you had thirty five
last night? Oh my goodness, did he really against your
team Evansville? So I tweeted out his highlights and I
put on their cream abdul Jabbar, which we've talked about before,

(15:13):
and it's kind of going viral. So here's my question.
Do you like Cream abdul Jabbar better or Larry Blurd
because he wears goggles.

Speaker 3 (15:23):
I saw somebody say Larry Nerd Larry. I've seen somebody
else did.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
Why didn't come over with cream abdul Jabbar either? But
I like I like Larry Nerd better than Larry Blird.
I still like cream abdul Jabbar because I think it's
very creative. Drew, which one do you like?

Speaker 7 (15:44):
My answer was going to be cream until Shannon slid
in there with a new suggestion.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
I'm going Larry Larry Nerd. I like that Arry Nerd
is good. Last night were crazy, they were crazy thirty
five and he scored. He's like Jokich. He scored in
every way. He good like. I like, how is that
guy good? I don't know good basketball? Dunk? I'm not

(16:09):
sure if he can dunk. He plays distinctly below the rim.
He's gonna be a star mark he is. They've got
to make the tournament.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
They've gotta make you know.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
They they remember Missouri Valley tournaments a week before everybody
Else's right, I'm gonna be pulling for their tournament final
will be right after the right before the Kentucky Tennessee game.
I think, oh wow, so it'll be the Witchita it'll
say which he used to always be witch Tall State.
Now it's Indiana State. The Missouri Valley tournament final is
at two o'clock next week, and then we play Tennessee

(16:38):
right after. I'm gonna be at the bar. Shannon pull it.
He's gotta make it right, like they gotta get him
in the tournament.

Speaker 3 (16:47):
Start watching these games. Where do you find Indiana State games?

Speaker 2 (16:50):
Well, they're on ESPN plus quite a bit, but they
sometimes they've had some games on like ESPNU and stuff.
But but but their tournament is next week, and he's
got to get in because you're right. If he gets
in the tournament, he's gonna be a star. And if
they were to win a game, drew like he would
be a huge star. He has to get in the tournament.

Speaker 7 (17:11):
I can't even think you've had some players come through
that are some NBA talents had been majors and they
have a great first round and become legends, but none
of them have goggles and look like him and play
the way does.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
He will be a sensation. If they can get him
in there is what I should have been, Shannon. Yeah,
if I could have worked on my craft.

Speaker 3 (17:29):
He looks like the last guy you would pick in
Jym class in the game.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Yeah. That they're twenty five and five. They may be,
they're on the they're on the bubble of an out
large bid, but I think they'll probably get left out
unless they make it, so I hope they do. One person,
writes Matt, My twenty year old daughter is named Margaret.
She goes by Maggie. Did you know that there are
other names that actually derive from Margaret, Margie, Meg, Peggy,

(17:57):
and pearlw Is Pearl get that an offset of Margaret?

Speaker 1 (18:05):
I don't know. I can see the other ones everywhere
everyone else where?

Speaker 2 (18:08):
Do you get peg? Where's the pea come from?

Speaker 7 (18:12):
I didn't know any of those except the obvious Pearl
and Peg. You said another one that didn't fit either, Meg, Meg,
But I mean I'm not giving you Meg either. That's
the people are named Megan, aren't they Peggy? I don't
think they get Peggy?

Speaker 9 (18:29):
Arthur?

Speaker 3 (18:29):
Other ones though? Like isn't like Fred? Also called Dick,
Richard Richard Richard?

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Why would be.

Speaker 10 (18:42):
Well Richard Dick Fred Fred, I don't know, he's got
something on his mind over there, Couci Fred.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
Let's go to Marsha Marcia. Did you hear Ryan in
the first segment.

Speaker 4 (19:00):
No, but we're talking about memes like you could get
dick out of Ryan too, I.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
Guess, Lusia, Yeah, Marcia branded light of the Day, Shannon, yeah,
throw Haymakers.

Speaker 4 (19:20):
Well, apparently I was strown under the bus. So, uh,
I cannot believe it.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
First of all, were you not listening at the time.

Speaker 4 (19:29):
No, I been having insomnia and really bad set up
half the night. So Donnie called that morning, Donnie from
you know he comes to the show.

Speaker 6 (19:43):
Donn and uh he.

Speaker 4 (19:46):
Called and said, well, Marsha, you could host that show.
And then I start getting messages. How could Ryan be
mean to marsh?

Speaker 11 (19:53):
I said, what?

Speaker 2 (19:55):
Well, first of all, when you listen on podcasts, you're
going to be disappointed. Now, Drew and she It and
I took up for you, but he did you and
Misty he completely threw under the bus as examples of
people who could not host the show. And you already
Shannon in thirty seconds had a better line than Ryan's tears.

(20:16):
So I think you could do it, Marcia.

Speaker 4 (20:20):
Well, I'm just I would just like to know why
he would say such a thing. I mean, it will
be dead air before I ever host that show because
I've been insulted, but I would like to know what
he pasted on.

Speaker 1 (20:35):
All right, there you go, Marshay Marsham Marcia. I want
to take this time and meant an opportunity to apologize
for any harsh words that I have said towards you.
I just used you your name as an example. It
could have been any Marshall.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
Why did you could have been any Marshall night last name,
that's right, could be any marsh another Marcia Pole. But
why but why her? You could have you could have
picked a generic name. Why her?

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Because I'm such good friends with her. I knew she
knew I was kidding and didn't mean any harsh anything
mean behind it and we'll hug and hug it out.

Speaker 9 (21:14):
I'm not sure about it.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
I love you, Marcia, no harm, no foul.

Speaker 4 (21:23):
I love you too. I'm just assuming it's because I
have a country twain that you think I'm not qualified,
because you know I have a knowledge.

Speaker 9 (21:34):
Oh no doubt.

Speaker 4 (21:36):
Okay, Well, okay, I'm just gonna think because like you said,
you're from Indiana.

Speaker 2 (21:42):
You had a brain fart, brain fart, not very smart.
Here's the thing to remember, at the end of the day,
you can't be too offended because it's him and you
know what he says on a daily basis. So but Marsha,
we took up for you that you know you could
host the show. And I'm sorry to hear about your insomnia.
I hope that gets better.

Speaker 4 (21:59):
Okay, Oh that's all right, that's all right, God is good.

Speaker 2 (22:03):
All right. I hope to see you soon. Marcia. Thank you,
Oh yes, thank you.

Speaker 4 (22:08):
I may have to come tomorrow if i if I'm Abel.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
Please do right across the face. Thank you very much.
I appreciate your coming.

Speaker 1 (22:16):
How awesome is Marcia.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
It's true she didn't sound all that happy. I'm not
gonna lie to you.

Speaker 7 (22:21):
No, but she delivered that line perfectly start the call,
and that was great.

Speaker 2 (22:26):
She can host it, Riscoe, what do you got follow
Marshall's call?

Speaker 12 (22:32):
Man about Uh, well, I just won't repeat that. But
there's just no way to follow that. But anyway, I
need to make a confession to the entire Big Blue Nation.
I grew up in Louisville, and Saint Matthew's and saw
the nineteen eighty Louisville Cardinals with Darryl Griffith, and.

Speaker 2 (22:50):
All right, we just got thirty seconds. Thirty seconds, Okay,
I did.

Speaker 12 (22:54):
But I've lived in election in all my life, and
I am a big Blue fan in and out. I
just want to apologize. I love the Cats, Go Cats.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
Wait a minute, did you are you saying you switched
from Louisville to Kentucky? Yes?

Speaker 12 (23:15):
Can that be dumb?

Speaker 2 (23:16):
Do you? I don't know. First of all, I appreciate
the call. Can are you allowed to based on the
last few years, Drew switch from Louisville to Kentucky.

Speaker 7 (23:26):
I mean it's gonna come with some some punishment, some embarrassment,
But anyone that wants to leave Louisville, I'm not so
cruel that I would wish someone You know what you
have to do, Drew.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
It's like when you move to Division one, you have
to sit out of the tournament for a few years.
You don't like it, you have to like sit out
for a couple of years.

Speaker 13 (23:43):
I like it.

Speaker 2 (23:44):
Then maybe you can we'll let you join. We'll take
a break right back. It's Kentucky Sports Radio. TJ. Smith,
personal injury attorney, called TJ. He'll make them pay.

Speaker 3 (23:54):
Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio present it by Stockton Mortgage.
Here's Matt Jones.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
That's amazing. This is Michael or not that William Hung?
William Yeah, uh you know the uh uh William Hung
was a star for a while. Yeah, huge star. You
know the contest we're having. I'm trying to think where
they've you know, obviously the singing contest. I'll give you

(24:20):
another example though, was remember MTV did want to be
a VJ and gave it's Jesse Camp.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
And who is the other dude.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
The big the big guy who had a career for
a long time, Dave Holmes, right, he came in second.
He still does stuff. I don't know what happened to
Jesse Camp.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
That's a pretty good Jesse. I don't know, No that
Ryan doesn't know. But yeah, that's a good Jesse. That's
how he sounded. I don't know how he ever got on.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
I don't know how you got on there either. You
don't know who that is?

Speaker 1 (24:54):
Ryan, No, I'd have no idea who you're talking about.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
I'll tell you somebody I hung out with. It Louder
than Life last year. Matt Penn remember him from MTV.

Speaker 2 (25:02):
He didn't come from that show though, right, No, but
he was like, no, my alternate music thing, right yeah. Yeah.
Well a couple quick people who passed away. First of all,
Richard Lewis, the comedian who has been around forever, yeah,
as long as I can remember, and was on Curb

(25:22):
Your Enthusiasm, which is my favorite comedy probably of all time.
He passed away at seventy six years old. Ryan again,
I mean he's had a sort of major comedy career
for over forty years. I don't know how he got
his start, but he's been around forever.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
Yeah, He's that guy you'd look up and he just
was everywhere everywhere I was really I was surprised he
was seventy six years old. I didn't think he was
that old.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
Yeah. He used to be on Stern a lot, He
was on The Tonight Show a lot. Yeah. And then
he has been on Curby Your Enthusiasm for a long time,
and I actually thought he was really funny. He kind
of had like a neurotic personality. I always really liked him.
And then Shannon Virgil.

Speaker 3 (26:03):
Oh Virgil, Yeah, from the WWF.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
From the WWF Virgil around Wrestling a long time, most
famously known for his feud with the Million Dollar Man.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
Yeah, and apparently he would always set up like his
autograph table in random places.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
Yeah, he would, that was the thing he would do. True,
you'd like this. He would just be somewhere.

Speaker 3 (26:25):
Like in a New York subway.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
Yeah, he would just he would just randomly go somewhere
and set up a table with the backdrop and charge
for autographs.

Speaker 7 (26:34):
I appreciate that, Ale, Yeah, I remember. I remember Virgil
pretty well. And then he became Vincent when he switched
to the other one.

Speaker 11 (26:41):
So I was on.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
So, uh that is a great move, Shannon. Just be like,
I'm just gonna go on a public street and go
would you like an autograph? I'm Virgil? Yeah, Hey make
your money. Uh hey if I'm nine two, so rest
in peace to both of those folks. He if I'm
nine two, eight twenty two eighty seven, goop, go ahead, goop?

Speaker 14 (27:01):
Hey man, first time, long time?

Speaker 2 (27:02):
Who are.

Speaker 8 (27:04):
So?

Speaker 11 (27:04):
I wanted to call in.

Speaker 14 (27:05):
I've got a question of Me and my wife were
expecting our second kid, our second son, in August that
I wanted to call in and get a name suggestion
from you. And I was gonna ask, you know, everybody else,
but I'm I'm kind of worried that Ryan might hate
kids as much as he hates women, so I didn't
want to ask him.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
So what's your question again?

Speaker 14 (27:23):
I'm sorry, we're having our second son in August.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
Suggestion, Oh, name suggestion, Well, not goop anything, but goop. Well,
first of all, like, do you want a normal name
or are you like one of these people now who
want something like majestic or something like that.

Speaker 14 (27:43):
Now, I just want your suggestion, whatever you think you
would want to marry.

Speaker 2 (27:47):
I would go, well, let's see, I appreciate the call.
I would say Virgil in honor of the passing of Virgil.
Virgils great. Yeah, you don't see a lot of Virgil.
That's a great suggest I think. I think I'm the

(28:07):
Drew with Virgil. Virgil's great.

Speaker 4 (28:09):
Uh. I like that.

Speaker 7 (28:10):
It's topical. I'll stay topical and go uh as von Amir. Really,
I think he's not a great Kentucky. You think are
gonna be named Reid in the next couple of years.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
The next nine to ten months from now. A lot
of Reids. There's a lot of kids, mindge. When I
was in high school, in college, a lot of dudes
named Kyle for Kyle Macy.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
You remember, yeah, Kyle and Macy. Girls named Macy, boys
named Kyle.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
Yes. By the way, a lot of people are writing
me saying that they know Margaret's or no Peggy's who
come from Margaret? How is that? I don't know that
was a thing. How many Peggys could you possibly know?
Do you know a person named Peggy? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (28:52):
Who Peggy Brown went to school with her? Okay, hello Peggy,
Sue goodbye?

Speaker 2 (28:58):
That was like a million years go, right. I mean
I don't know a Peggy, much less many Peggys.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:08):
I don't think I know any either.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
D do you know a Peggy?

Speaker 7 (29:10):
I don't know any Peggys.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (29:12):
I was trying to research why Peggy would come from
Margaret and even googles. I'm going I'm getting deep, but
I'm not finding many answers. I don't think the internet
knows either. I think people are making some.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
Things that the Internet. Shannon, did you see that you
can't find? Did you see the people that came to
the OVW show like in cosplay?

Speaker 3 (29:32):
Uh, Freddy and Lexington?

Speaker 2 (29:33):
Yes, no, okay, so this was weird. A dude walked
in in a like suit with like a wrestling mask on.
He had two women on each arm. He had a
woman on each arm. He had two guys who were
like acted like they were security, right, they had like
the earpieces, and he had people going around handing out

(29:58):
fake money saying vote for the mayor. And it was
like eight people and they never broke character all night.
They walked around all night as this like Entourage cosplay,
and he would introduce himself as I am the mayor
of Lexington.

Speaker 3 (30:16):
Sounds like he was auditioning for a role at OVW,
So maybe should have brought him.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
Backstage like that wasn't Linda Gordon, I don't think in
the in the mask, but it was so weird. I mean,
you guys weren't there so you can't see it. But
he never in two hours ever broke character. And the
security would like go uh. They would act like they
were talking to someone and go, uh, please move a
little bit to the left. We have we have someone approaching.

(30:41):
Like they did it the whole time. I respect that
that they carried it out through the whole thing. So
I spent a lot of the week in googling trying
to find out who this person was, and they handed me,
like they what. They handed me a business card that
said I'm it just said mayor of Lexington with a
phone number. We call that number. I did, I had nothing,
they answered, I tried, who would go through that? Who?

(31:04):
I don't know? And then for nothing because you can't
find anything else about him. Yeah. If someone has to
know who's the strangest thing in the world, over seventy,
who's next?

Speaker 6 (31:13):
Go ahead, Hi, Matt, Yeah, I'll tell you prove how
old I am.

Speaker 2 (31:19):
My mother you're over seventy.

Speaker 6 (31:23):
My mother's name was Harriet Margaret and she went by McGee.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
Not Maggie.

Speaker 6 (31:30):
Muggie, okay mcgie. And my wife and I have a
friend whose name is Margaret and she goes by Peggy.

Speaker 2 (31:37):
Yeah that is that is, But go ahead.

in New York and Mike and the Mad Talk and
all that, so not really the deep dive into Kentucky history.
But enjoy your show very well.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
Thank you very much.

Speaker 6 (32:00):
You met you at one of the golf outings, and
I've been to the bar a few times, so I
was just going to say this. I think one of
the greatest compliments I've ever heard you give is when
somebody makes three or four statements and then you say
I agree with everything you said.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
Well, that doesn't happen a lot, probably, But thank you
very much, sir. Appreciate you listening. And the golf scramble

for it, but that verbiage wasn't used. Okay, go ahead.

Speaker 6 (32:43):

mean negative all the time. It just means you're you're thoughtful.

Kentucky brand at Tweet of the Day by tweety Matt
at KY Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
Welcome Mack is Tey Sports Radio. Uh, Shannon, they're saying
about this Robbie of Via dude from Saint from Indiana state. Yeah,
there are people saying he's from French Thick, Indiana.

Speaker 1 (34:00):
Where that's where Larry NERD's from.

Speaker 2 (34:01):
So why can't he be there from all right, so
he's only a sophomore, Drew, do you think he could play?
You think he can enter the port. You think you
think that guy could play and be effective at a
at a major school the way he plays or the
pal two athletic.

Speaker 7 (34:17):
Really, I don't care. Let's go get him whatever money
we're saving up for Reed. If Reed leaves us, let's
throw it all at Larry Nerd and have some fun.

Speaker 2 (34:24):
I feel like I do feel like he'll go somewhere else. Ryan,
Do you think I mean he's averaging He's a sophomore.
He had twelve a game last year. He's averaging eighteen
a game this year.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
Yeah, he's not just a fluke. I mean, the dude
can play.

Speaker 2 (34:40):
But like, if you watch that video I put up,
it's all distinctly below the rim. Oh yeah, and the
dudes that are guarding him are below the rim. Do
you think he could do it against Ugo?

Speaker 3 (34:54):
No, that's why he needs to stay where he's at,
like he's a star there. He goes to it like
a major conference school, He's probably not, don't No, he
needs to stay where he's a star.

Speaker 2 (35:08):
I don't know. I'd like to see it, though. I
wonder if he could he could pull dudes like that
out though, because he can shoot threes. Drew you know.

Speaker 7 (35:17):
Yeah, and he's Kentucky's a little extreme. There's there's a
place for him at a higher level than where he is.
I don't know how high up he can.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
In the Big East or something. Walk on you. But
he's sixteen. You know, Joki has changed my view on
all these people because he's the best player in the
NBA and he's he's fat. I admits that he's found.
He is, I'm he is, but like and he plays

(35:48):
below the rim. I mean, Luca, it's chubby.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
Yeah, so could Avila play it like a place like
Virginia that they don't play in up temples?

Speaker 2 (35:58):
Maybe? Maybe I think he's shooting three shooting for travel.
I think you'd want to go to the biggest conference
you could where the people where though it wasn't like
the SEC. Athleticism is a premium. I don't know if
that's true in like the Big East. Yeah, so I
could see like going You mentioned Xavier Shanton, but I
could see him at a school like Xavier you think

(36:20):
there or a school like Creighton. You couldn't see that.

Speaker 3 (36:23):
Guy crap fifteen, I know, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (36:28):
Dude, If he's averaging eighteen a game, I don't care where.
I mean, look at the well, first of all, look
at the SEC. Okay, but you say that, look at
the SEC. Tennessee's best player came from Northern Colorado. He's
going to be SEC player of the Year. And Toonio
Reeves came from Illinois State. Where'd the kid at Alabama
come from? Well, the one kid from Alabama came from

(36:49):
North Dakota State, where was Sears from? Uh Drew.

Speaker 1 (36:55):
He's not he's a transfer.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
He's a transfer. They don't agree with you, Ohio, I think, okay,
but my point is all those guys put up buckets
at a small school and came here or came to
the SEC. The difference is he's not athletic, but he's
putting up the same stats those dudes did.

Speaker 8 (37:17):
So.

Speaker 3 (37:18):
Toughest team they played all year was Michigan State, and
how they do They lost by twelve.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
Okay, we'll see, they'll get kids, they'll do the chance.
Mike from Vegas, go ahead, Mike, Mike.

Speaker 11 (37:33):
I think that Reached Shepherd is the redeemer of the
Kentucky basketball season. That's why I call him the redeemer.
And I'm kind of concerned about Ryan.

Speaker 2 (37:44):
What do you mean by that, Marsha, what do you
mean by that? The Redeemer?

Speaker 11 (37:48):
Like I mean, well, it seems like I've been gone
for about twenty years. I've lived in Vegas, Like I said,
I'm born and raised here. It just seems like he's
brought the state back to the state of basketball. But
I remember when I left.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
Yeah, but I mean we've been We've had a lot
of that since you've been gone. I mean, we this
this fan base from two thousand, well really the whole time,
but really from twenty ten to twenty nineteen, this fan
base was wild. Every year was You know what's been
different is we haven't been winning like we've won. So
as much as people love Reid, let's not act like

(38:22):
he's the Lord and Savior that brought back Kentucky basketball.
If we win, people are into it. The problem just
the last couple of years is we haven't won like
we won before.

Speaker 11 (38:34):
Well, there's only one true Lord and Savior. But Reid
is he to me, He's just brought the whole state together.
I don't know why, because he's Bluewood Maybe I don't know.
And another comment, I'm concerned about Ryan and you know
what Marcia said he's little Richard, but you can't get
Cooch out of Marsha. Ryan, I'm sorry, that's all.

Speaker 2 (38:54):
Appreciate the call. Leave the jokes to Marsha. Let's go
to Brandon. Go ahead, brand Then, Hey, Matt.

Speaker 13 (39:01):
When people ask me where I'm from, I always say
three things. The home of the creators of Walking Dead
and the Great Matt Jones.

Speaker 2 (39:10):
Well, I was only there for a couple of years,
but I appreciate it.

Speaker 9 (39:14):
But I can.

Speaker 13 (39:15):
I don't know if you remember this or not. I
was right before the Florida game. I was the one
that got the Forest Company.

Speaker 5 (39:21):
Uh.

Speaker 13 (39:22):
It was a full house in there. I think you
were sitting next to dann Alaski and there was one
chair left, and you walked up and said, hey, can
I have that chair?

Speaker 9 (39:29):
And I said, sorry, see it's taking.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
I do not remember that, but I I'm sorry, but
but I appreciate you listening. And is this your trare
sum call?

Speaker 12 (39:39):
It is?

Speaker 9 (39:40):
It is?

Speaker 2 (39:40):
All right? Well? Who are Thank you very much? I
appreciate it. Let's go to uh Carrie, go ahead.

Speaker 8 (39:45):
Carry Hey, I'm a first time caller here.

Speaker 2 (39:48):
Who are were you mad at Ryan?

Speaker 9 (39:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (39:50):
No, I'm not mad at Ryan because I loved Helen
Ready and he knew that name, so it's all good.

Speaker 2 (39:58):
So he made up for it by knowing read okay it.

Speaker 5 (40:01):
I think we're of the same age anyway. Since it's
open topic day, I don't think I've heard you guys
talking about this, but I did see that Matt posted
the video the other day.

Speaker 8 (40:11):
I want to get your opinion of the new thing
Repperena has going on.

Speaker 2 (40:15):
Love it? I think I love it more now that
it's going national. It's gross. You're talking about snackwards can grow.
It's very gross. But Drew, now it's been on ESPN,
it's been on House of Highlights, like, it's going everywhere,
and I think it's gonna catch on, Drew. I think
they actually started something creative at Rupperena.

Speaker 7 (40:36):
The crowd really gets into it. As as soon as
hungary Eyes starts playing. Everyone knows to look straight up.
They know what's coming.

Speaker 8 (40:43):
Well, let me tell you, I was an unsuspecting victim.
I was, oh, you were the hot dog couple.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
You were not dog couple.

Speaker 8 (40:52):
I have never been more mortified in my life. But
after it went to fifteen million views on ESPN's TikTok.
I thought, I guess I better just wait for it.

Speaker 2 (41:03):
You were the hot dog couple. Oh my goodness, yeah, wow,
and you all shared a hot dog.

Speaker 8 (41:11):
Well, here's the funniest thing.

Speaker 5 (41:13):
I had one bite of the hot dog before the
game even started, and somehow that dom camera.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
Yeah I've heard by the way they do that for
people who don't know. They do the camera before the
game starts. So I think you're okay if you eat
during the game, they do it before it starts, so
those you are the game, that's how that just so
you know, that's when you're most vulnerable. But like you
and your people have said, like people share a hot dog,
I mean, I guess that's not crazy for a husband

(41:43):
and wife.

Speaker 8 (41:44):
No, here's the crazy thing. We had just been seated.
I said, can I just have a bite of the
hot dog?

Speaker 5 (41:52):
And it was literally like a second and somehow it
got picked up. That was before the game started, and
then the second half comes along.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
But you've been able to laugh about it, right? Have
you been able to laugh about it? Good?

Speaker 8 (42:06):
Gosh, of course I am mortified, but then I.

Speaker 14 (42:10):
Laugh at you.

Speaker 2 (42:11):
You are a celebrity. Though you're a celebrity you and
your husband share hot dogs and pull them out of
your mouth, and you should be very proud.

Speaker 8 (42:20):
It's ridiculous. But if Nathan's does want us to come
up to the.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
Contract, oh good, well, thank you very much. How about
that one of the victims, Drew of the hot dog
cam or the snack Words game speaks it's good to
hear from her.

Speaker 7 (42:34):
I know a lot of people like her who have
been on there and they're mortified and their lives have
changed moving forward. And then I've mentioned this on this show.
There are several fans who refuse to spend money and
rupper in and eat there anymore out of fear that
they will end up on the camera. I think when
the numbers come out at the end of the season,
they're gonna have to rethink. It's afraid of you. But
just know they do all that before the game, just
so you know. When you're a waterfall in nature, there's

(42:56):
no cause for concern, But when it's a sound of
water pouring through your living room, you might have to
call Serve Pro one eight hundred Serve Pro. They do
firewater damage, make it like it never even happen. I
hope you don't need it, but if you do seer
VP r O dot com it is Serve pro Ryan.

Speaker 2 (43:12):
Tell everybody where we are tomorrow, Lockridge Park.

Speaker 1 (43:15):
It's at Gard County address.

Speaker 2 (43:16):
We'll tweet out the address for it, but it'll be
a really cool place. Yeah, please tweet out the address
so I know where I'm going. If you happen to
be in Columbus for the hockey game tonight, say hello.
I'm gonna be pounding on the glass Shannon.

Speaker 3 (43:27):
Good luck.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
We'll see you later.
