Welcome to our two Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage.
Now Here's Matt Jones welcome back.

Speaker 4 (01:05):
It is Kentucky Sports Radio Hour number two. Matt Jones,
Drew Franklin, Mario Maitland here in Scottsdale, Arizona. Shannon's back
at Kentucky. We will be back. Ryan will be back
on the show tomorrow. I will still be here, but
they will be there and you can give a call
a five nine two eighty seven. Remember Friday, We're going
to be in Owensboro at the Kentucky Skin Cancer Center.

(01:27):
If you look in the morning you see spots on
your face or on your body, have someone look at it.
Look at it by a dermatologist at the Kentucky Skin Center.
We will be there Friday, twenty nine to fifteen New
Hartford Road in Owensboro. They'll have local food vendors free
coffee for the first twenty five guests. We'll get there
early for your coffee and get your summer skin protection goodies.

(01:49):
You can learn more at the Kentucky Skin Cancer Center.
Will treat you not just like a patient, but like family.
That will be Friday, So I'm going to be very
tired when I get there, but ready to rock. In Owensborough,
it's also the Barbecue Festival this weekend. People, if you've
never been Owensboro, the Barbecue Festival's big thing. If you
have best food, you'll have Janny, you ever been the

(02:11):
barbecue festival there.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
I love some good barbecue, so I'm looking forward to it.

Speaker 4 (02:16):
It's great that will be this weekend. So after we go,
if we do our show, I think we're gonna go
try to find some some barbecue at the Barbecue Festival.

Speaker 5 (02:24):
I've been to it many times, but it's been probably
ten years since i've been.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
But it's a lot of fun. Uh.

Speaker 5 (02:30):
I'll be there a little earlier. I'm going Thursday night.
Looking forward to a fun weekend. We're gonna have a
little billy birthday party, I hope Thursday night, so we'll
be around Owensboro.

Speaker 4 (02:38):
Yeah, well you if you're if you're around Owensboro, come
see us at the show Friday at the Kentucky Skin
Cancer Center. Ay five nine two eight twenty two eighty seven.
I'm gonna go back to the phone just a second.
But NBC Sports you you probably don't know the name
Jonathan Fagan, right, nobody knows that. I do not, but
he is the voice when you watch the Olympics on

(03:00):
NBC he's the voice that comes in and out and
does the promoska right, So probably none of the four
of us would know his voice, but if we heard
his voice, we would know what he says. He died unfortunately,
rest in peace after the Olympics last year. But Shannon,

(03:21):
his voice is apparently iconic with the Olympics. So they
have made a deal with his family that they will
use AI to have his voice do the Winter Olympics
this year. His family agreed to it, and now the
same voice that has been used in the Olympics in

(03:41):
years past will be used as the official voice in
the Olympics this year. And some people wonder, is this
the start of bringing back all kinds of announcers like
John Madden could just be back. Wow, an AI version
of John Madden Kentucky Sports Radio could exist after I died,

(04:05):
but just with me. With AI, you could conceivably Rush
Limbaugh could replace Clay and Stray that come on after here.
So leave aside the ethics because his family agreed to it, Chandon,
would you do you think this is a good idea

(04:25):
a bad idea? What do you think?

Speaker 3 (04:28):
It's kind of cool? Because it's really a way for
you to live forever, right, I mean, if you could
use that voice until the end of time. It's sort
of cool that you can honor that person's legacy long
after they're gone. So as long as the family's okay
with it, and I guess he would be assume he.

Speaker 4 (04:47):
Would be okay. Okay, yeah, probably never but never even
assumed it was something you could do. Yep.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
And as long as they're paying the family for the
continuing then I'm kind of fine with it, I think.
I mean, it's strange.

Speaker 4 (05:02):
Would any of you not want your families in the
future to have you live forever via voice? My hand
is raised time, tru. I don't like this, Filtererie.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
I don't like what you guys. Don't want to.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
Live well at first, I don't want to live forever
just in general voice no, because I don't care how
how good AI is. I don't want to be held
responsible for what AI says. I would say.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
Do you think I could ruin your legacy Postmaril.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
Yeah, I don't care how smart it.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
Is, But no, that's a man that's not really mad.

Speaker 4 (05:41):
Here's the thing, though, there are everyone has thoughts in
their head that are good and bad, right, yeah, and
you have a filter that makes you decide whether it's
good or not. And some people's filter is better than others.
Ryan's filter is terrible. Ryan has no worse thoughts than

(06:04):
anyone else. It's just he doesn't know when not to
say it. He doesn't know to say, you know, I
think women make good food, so they should keep making food,
Like I don't like he doesn't know not to say that.
I worry that the computer, the AI would not have that,
and then my legacy would be stained by something they say.

Speaker 3 (06:26):
Here's the thing though, Like Matt, I hope you live
to be one hundred and fifty, but like, let's say
you passed away before me, I want to still be
able to argue with Ai Matt.

Speaker 4 (06:34):
Well in that huge do you want? Do you want that?

Speaker 6 (06:37):
Like?

Speaker 4 (06:37):
Okay, so people we talked about people being irreplaceable. Everybody
agrees John Madden is the best announcer ever. Would you
want to hear John Madden call a game right now? Yes?

Speaker 3 (06:48):
If there was an alternate, like let's say they got
the regular broadcast and an alternate broadcast on another station.
I'm watching the Madden broadcast.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
Would you want to have John Madden I'm conflicted here
because I'm definitely team no On wanting it to exist.

Speaker 5 (07:02):
But when you frame it that way, I would tune
into a John Badden broadcast right now.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
And Pat Summer all you put them together?

Speaker 4 (07:09):
Yeah, I mean just like a Madden game. Yeah. Like,
I mean, they still those dudes, but now imagine it's
live and they're reacting to what happens with the boom.
I mean, would you like to have a virtual Lee
Corso still put on the mascot heads Wood with Kentucky Kwood.

(07:31):
That's the one thats up? There we go? I'm asking
the fans seven seven two seven seven four five two
five four. This is in the realm of this is
not like some crazy thing in the next five years.
They could have Kwood Ledford do the UK games. Would

(07:52):
you want Let's assume it wouldn't affect Tom Leach's talk, Okay,
but let's say you could have Haywood, Letford and Ralph
Hacker on an alternate stream of Kentucky basketball. Would you
want to listen to it? See?

Speaker 5 (08:09):
I hate this concept of it existing. However, I would
absolutely tune in for.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
Yeah, and so if his family was cool with it,
you know, But k Wood might have had thoughts.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
Well, we'll say they can filter that out.

Speaker 4 (08:29):
So you're saying that we make it to where AI
has like the same filter that k Wood has.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
It has guardrails on it.

Speaker 4 (08:36):
Okay, maybe I could be talked into it. But we
don't know how k Wood would have adjusted to modern life.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
AI k would like taking puffs of the cigarette, like
in between plays.

Speaker 4 (08:50):
Yeah, if k Wood's smoking during the game, a smoke
during the K game.

Speaker 5 (08:57):
I've mentioned this before, but I just did this. This
took one second. You can go to chat GBT and
write an episode of KSR. It is scary, how how
real it is?

Speaker 4 (09:06):
Okay, so this is what chaos I just typed KSR
set I said, So this is what they say. I
would say. I'm gonna read exactly, Shannon what chat. I'm
gonna read exactly what JP chat GBT says. I would say. Okay,
Welcome to everyone. This Kentucky Sports Radio Monday Edition live

(09:26):
from KOs Bar, Grill and Beautiful Lexan, Kentucky. I'm Matt Jones,
joined as always by Ryan Lemon, Drew Franklin, and Shannon
the Dude behind the Board. Big show Today, Travis Perry
lit it up in the scrimmage. Liam Cohen's back doing
Liam Cohen things at spring practice, and Ryan might have
had another run in at the myerself checkout. And then
Ryan Lemon goes, listen, those machines hate me. I scan
grapes and it charged me for ribbi and I don't

(09:47):
even like Rivit isn't that And then Drew responds, that's
a lie. I've seen you eat a twenty ounce Ribbi
malones and asked for dessert that took one second. Scary, right,
that sounds like could have been it even has I
did it one time where Ryan was running late and
he forgot that it starts through you, being like did
you forget the equipment? Again? Like the fact that it

(10:10):
even knows our personalities? Because the thing about that this
is like an early generation. So yes or no? You
would want to hear a Kawood Ledford game uk of
his AI today He calls Kentucky Louisville next year. Yes,
I would definitely tune in. Would you want to hear? Yes? Yes? See,
I think I would too, So this is coming. Folks

(10:32):
like Charles Barkley can retire, but he can just make
his AI do it.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
Forever, like it's n il right, I mean for all
of us.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
Yeah, so maybe I will keep doing KSR after fis
it just won't be me. That's so weird, That is
it's crazy to think that that can happen. But they're
doing that with this guy at the Olympics. You will
hear his voice at the Winter Olympics, even though he
is dead and couldn't possibly know what is happening at

(11:02):
the Winner Olympics.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
Imagine you retire, though, and you're making the same salary,
but you're not even going to work every day. You're
saying salary and even exist crazy.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
So you tell me, would you want to hear Kwood
seven seven two seven seven four five two five four.
Who's next?

Speaker 3 (11:18):
Jerry?

Speaker 4 (11:19):
Jerry? Go ahead, Jerry?

Speaker 7 (11:21):
Well, first, I would love to hear k Wood, particularly
doing football, because he was as good on football as
he was on basketball, but which I can't believe they
don't make more of his broadcast available.

Speaker 4 (11:31):
Would you feel like it was really him when you
listen to it, or would you even care?

Speaker 7 (11:37):
I wouldn't care. I'm amazing a somebody like KSR or
UK or somebody doesn't make a library of all his games.

Speaker 4 (11:45):
This is about the future. You're talking about the past.
I'm talking about the future. Would you want to hear
all it's so Yeah?

Speaker 7 (11:53):
I love it. Yeah, I grew I grew up on Kwood.
I love Kwood. I could listen to me times. But
but my main point and Colin was, you know, I
think that that next September for Stoops is going to
be the most important month since he's been here, particularly
that first game agains Toledo, because Toledo is the best
team in the MAC. They've got a really good football team.

(12:15):
And if Kentucky drops that game, I mean, if they
go one and four in September, it could be well.

Speaker 4 (12:22):
If it's over, No, no, I mean it's over. If
Kentucky loses to five Stoops, it's over. Now. The Old
Miss game, to me is a more interesting conversation because
I don't think they have to win it, but they
can't get blown out. But you're right, good Toledo is
good and you cannot lose that game.

Speaker 7 (12:42):
No, he can't lose that game. And then also South Carolina.
He can't go down there and get blown out South Carolina.
How they I mean, I don't say they're gonna win
that game, but they got to play well and and
you know, we'll see what happens. We'll see what happens.

Speaker 4 (12:58):
I'm totally with you, Jerry, I appreciate called this dude
that was at the party last night, MINSI he's an
Old Miss guy, and he came up to me and
he said that the Old Miss game is huged for
for Lane Kiffin too, that the fans are kind of like,
all right, man, you know, the Kentucky game is like
a sticking point to them last year, and they're they're
kind of like, we can't lose to Kentucky again. That

(13:19):
Kentucky Old Miss game in week two is gonna be
a massive game for both programs. In week one, he
goes without saying, like Mark stop if he lose to Toledo,
the time here is just gonna end. That's just how
it is.

Speaker 5 (13:32):
Toledo, if I'm not mistaken, went to Mississippi State and
won last year. They did already have an SEC win
just a season ago. But at the same time, to
be on the more optimistic end, if Stoops beats Toledo
and Old Miss to start the season, what does that
do for the narrative? There's a lot of people that
are already done with him. But if he goes, if he
beats old miss and you're two and zero, I think
that can completely change the direction of how things are

(13:54):
going for him.

Speaker 4 (13:54):
It seems like everybody wants to hear Kawood. Yeah. I
was very anti AI till we framed it as would
you turned on a Kwood broadcast? Well? Yeah, I mean okay,
Like I think about radio, If you said to me,
could I get Tony Kornheiser circa like before he became
a completely grumpy old man Like Tony Kornheiser when I

(14:16):
listened to it, which was like two thousand and one
to two thousand and seven or eight, he was awesome?
Could I get if you could get me an AI
version of that to talk about what was happening on
a day to day basis, I think I'd probably listen.

Speaker 5 (14:31):
You could also, like you love Bill Simmons. You could
also maybe pick who you want to be broadcasting together.

Speaker 4 (14:36):
You could like own Yeah, I could make a pot
exactly right, like I could have Tony Kornheiser, Bill Simmons
before he became rich and yeah, and Shane Gillis and
then like that's a podcast come on Man not far away, dude,
it's kind of blows your mind. I mean when I

(14:59):
read this story, apparently they did something like this with
al Michaels last year, but the technology was like very basic.
It was like a video game. They're saying they can
have this, dude, that they had update the promos in
real time. That's wild, that's crazy, that's wild scary. Yeah, well,

(15:20):
I hard already has it. We learned it. We had
that podcast thing last year. But it can take our
show now and put it out in every language. Yeah,
they take our show and they put it in like
a Spanish. Yeah, there is, Chandon. Did you know that
there's like a version of me in Arabic doing this show?
It doesn't they don't, they don't send it out, but

(15:42):
they have the technology that they could make me speak
in Arabic right now, that's not my new deal. There
was language in there about it basically saying you give
us permission to create foreign language versions of you.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
I've already got you on Netflix and a tell and
saying look at that cake, so we can we can
do that like with every language.

Speaker 4 (16:05):
Basically yeah, all right, well take a break, crazy stuff,
be right back this kids, Tuck welcome back at his
Kentucky Sports Radium. If I'm nine two eight twenty two
eighty seven. Some of the people that were writing on
the text machine like giving me examples of things you
could do or crazy. One person writes, Matt, I sort
of look at you the way you always talk about
corn Hines. I've enjoyed listening to you since I was

(16:27):
a kid. If you were gone, I'd love to hear
an Ai version of the show. It wouldn't be real,
but it still would be something. But here's a question
for you. Would you like to use it for you
to interview people that you admire from the past? Ooh,
that's a nice twist. Okay, So what like I could
interview like Muhammad Ali or like Bobby Kennedy. That's or

(16:52):
K would like what if what if I were to
bring Ai Kwood an interview him and he and I
talk about the past and the future current of UK
basketball And that's like mind blowing stuff. But it's not.
It would be crazy, but it's not really him, No,

(17:13):
but it's kind of him.

Speaker 3 (17:15):
It's all his knowledge.

Speaker 8 (17:17):
Yeah, gives you an idea of what it may be
like if it would happen Yeah, I like that.

Speaker 4 (17:22):
I'm down. I'm down for as we saw in what
I just handed you like the substance of what they
come up with. You would say, it is kind of
your tone what we normally do, like it knows what
that's crazy because that's like that's like just processing audio
from a long period of time. Yeah, but when you

(17:43):
say to me, could I in real time interview like
Bobby Kennedy, that's crazy. We could get just on the show,
but to sit and talk to him about like his
tour of Appalachia in the sixties where he like walked
like I would be fascinating that, but it would not

(18:06):
really be him. Wouldn't be right when you feel like
you're kind of talking to a wall or like a
I don't know what it would feel like. Maybe it'll
feel normal over time. But this is partially why, Like
this conversation is part of a bigger conversation that I
do think people need to understand, which is the world
is about to be a different place in ten years

(18:26):
and a lot of like our current conversation is about
bringing back the world of the past. You just gotta
say stop, like that ain't happening. You know, the sort
of let's bring well, I don't want to get into
a political fight, but like, let's bring back jobs like that.
Stuff's going like this is the future. Now I'm not

(18:48):
saying it's good. Like something bad about this is you
could just make Matt Jones the host of KSR forever
and then nobody like there's no new talent that gets
to do it. That's not good. But this is coming
and our economy, Like, there's gonna be tons of jobs
that you that that people trained for, that they were

(19:10):
told this is the future, job that are just gonna
go away, like coders, oh gone gone, graphic design ten
years they would have told you ten years ago, go
be a computer coder. That's a job you'll always have.
And Shannon, in five years, they're not gonna need any

(19:31):
of them.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
And you're gonna have a lot of people without jobs.

Speaker 4 (19:35):
Except like the elite, elite graphic designers exactly like the
things people can do with graphic design. Now, some of
this is already here. There's already like trucking, there's already
trucks driving around making deliverties, deliveries with no one driving. Yeah,
that's already here. We saw a car, Shannon, we saw

(19:56):
a driverless car. It was like right next to it. Mean,
I'm not saying nothing, but i'd never seen one. I've
never seen one of person, and it was I kind
of was like, get away from me, driverless car.

Speaker 3 (20:11):
Fact to park, you know.

Speaker 4 (20:14):
So, I mean there's a whole thing coming that I
don't really think America or the world gets, including me,
that is it's coming. Who's next?

Speaker 3 (20:26):
Michael, Michael, what's up?

Speaker 4 (20:27):
Michael?

Speaker 6 (20:30):
Hey, glad you all are having good time in Arizona.
I have a question for you to talk about. Maybe
do you think there will ever be a world where
the first two rounds of the n c A are
probably given out on a bidding process where we could
get a bidding process between like Nashville and think louis

(20:52):
Le Cincinnati. Yeah, but get it in like a rotation.

Speaker 4 (20:59):
Well, I mean they could, but they're gonna the city's
already bid for this. I mean that's how they pick
the cities now, is that cities bid for it. I mean,
if you're asking, like, can we get to where there's
always one in this area that we could go to,
I think the answer to that is yes. Cincinnati did
not have the facilities to host until recently they've upgraded

(21:23):
their arena, So Cincinnati's hosting I want to say next
year or maybe the year after. Nashville usually doesn't bid
because they can make more money on concerts then, so
that's why they don't do it. You'll notice that the
first and second rounds are often in cities like Providence,
in Greensboro and Wichita because what I understand is the

(21:44):
bigger cities they think they can make more money with
other stuff, or they have NBA obligations and hockey obligations
that they can't work around. So, sir, that's part of
the reason you see why the first and second rounds
are often in secondary cities is for that reason.

Speaker 6 (22:02):
I was just thinking that, like in North Carolina, there's
always seems like one in Greensboro, Charlotte and Raleigh. Yeah,
and Duke never has to leave the stake.

Speaker 4 (22:14):
But the reason they do that is Greensboro, Charlotte, and
Raleigh always sell out immediately, and because there's all those
teams there, et cetera. You put if you put one
in Lexington, if Kentucky's not or excuse me, if Louisville's
not good, who's gonna fill up like they got lucky
they had Louisville and Tennessee here. But and I appreciate

(22:37):
the call. If Louislle and Tennessee weren't in it, would
they have sold out Lexington? I don't know. I don't
think they would have. Probably, you know, especially when Louisville
didn't make the second round. I've probably heard it too. Yeah,
but the like, if we're not a one seed the
year it's in Louisville, then it did it really help
Louisville a lot to get it? So but I do
think that's why you see the first round have secondary

(22:58):
cities because if you're a team of an NBA team
or a hockey team, you are, you have a schedule
you have to work around. You got concerts. Whereas like, again,
where where did we go this year? Milwaukee? Well, they
have an NBA team, but they don't have a hockey team,
so it's probably easier to uh to schedule. We'll take
a break. We'll be right back. The SCARSR. TJ.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
Smith, personal injury attorney called TJ. He'll make them pay.

Speaker 4 (23:22):
Now.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
More of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Here's
Matt Jones.

Speaker 4 (23:27):
I think I'm scaring people here, Shannon. People were sending
me and they're just sending me all this stuff. This
ai like how scared they are. They're like, Matt, does
this mean we're like, you know, you start to think
about the ramifications of this stuff. Mm hmm, it's wild.
We've gone too far. We've already gone too far. Well,
if you think we got too far, wait till we go. Uh.
Shout out to the ladies of KSR. By the way,

(23:49):
who their membership is is growing. One person writes Matt.
The ladies of KSR are loving having Mario on the show.
They all have crushes. That's because I think a lot
of them are right in the age range that that
loves Mario. Lads of ks are awesome too. That you
can if you're if you're a woman, you listen to KSR,
you should join their Facebook group. They they've been great fans.

(24:09):
Then they are maybe our most loyal fans, and so
we we adore them all. Right, I just sent you
all chat GPT. Put together, somebody put in chat GPT. Shannon, Uh,
just do an episode of kosruh a script. Okay, coming
back from break, we are going to read the parts.
This is what they say we would say, So this

(24:31):
is not a saying this. This is what they say,
we would say. Drew's gonna read his Shann'll read his Mario.
You're gonna play Ryan limit love it? Okay because he's
not here. All right, let's this is exactly what chat
GPT says the show would be, and I'm gonna do
it like I would do. All right, Welcome back, take
you Sports Radio Live Chaos Bar and Grill. It's a
beautiful day in Lexington. Uh, Ryan, how many chicken wings

(24:54):
did you just eat during the break?

Speaker 8 (24:56):
I stopped counting after twelve, Matt.

Speaker 4 (24:58):
But in my defense, okay, hang on that. You're right, yes,
don't get better, It'll get better. Let me. I wasn't
ready for that. Alright, let's start to the top because
I didn't. I wasn't expecting that as your Ryan Lemon voice.
All right, let's try it. All right, Welcome back to

(25:19):
take you Sports Radio Live from KOs Bar and Grill.
It is a beautiful day here in Lexington. Now, Ryan,
how many chicken wings did you eat during the break?

Speaker 8 (25:28):
I stop counting after twelve, Matt, But in my defense,
they were honey barbecue ones, so I was basically eating healthy.

Speaker 4 (25:36):
Ryan's over here treating honey barbecue like it's kale. Alright,
let's you sound just like sorry? Well, all right, let's
circle back to Ryde's die Terry choice is later. Let's
talk a little Kentucky basketball. Shannon, are you worried about
the Cats defense heading into the NCAA Tournament.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
I'm more worried about their free throw shooting. To be honest,
you can't win six games in March if you're bricking
front ends of one and one's.

Speaker 5 (26:02):
Shannon's right, it's not nineteen ninety six anymore. You can't
just out athlete everybody. You gotta hit your free throws.

Speaker 8 (26:09):
I still say reach shepherds on the court. I feel
good that kid's got ic in his faints.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
Man, Ryan, you feel good if we'd opened a gas
station and sold you a hot dog. You are irrationally
confident about everything he does. That's because he's a winner.

Speaker 3 (26:25):
Mat Okay, so not exactly the best script.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
I actually thought it was a pretty good script, to
be honest with you. I mean, Mario playing rhyme realistic,
But I mean, like, we.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
Can try another one. We get Ryan back with us.

Speaker 4 (26:43):
Hey, we could say that though.

Speaker 3 (26:46):
That could have been. Yeah, a conversation that we had in.

Speaker 4 (26:48):
That, that's a conversation we could have had me even
saying you can't out athlete anyone, like it's like nineteen
ninety six.

Speaker 3 (26:55):
I don't know that I would be concerned about bricking one.
And one's like free throw. I've never talked about free
throw shooting being worried about it.

Speaker 4 (27:02):
That's still I don't know. Man, I like that. You
think that's how right? So who's up next? Yeah, that's
like all white people to you. Go ahead, good, what's up?

Speaker 7 (27:23):
Uh?

Speaker 9 (27:23):
Just down here in sunny Florida and Sarahsota, enjoy it.
Listen to you guys talk. And I want to ask
you guys a question. What do you guys think about her?
Do you think we guys have too many big guys
in the center position or in the tall because I'm
kind of worried about not having enough guards. And I'm
gonna hang out there and listen and again we'll see
you back in Kentucky in a little bit. But thanks
a lot.

Speaker 4 (27:40):
Yeah, you know, I do. They basically traded a guard
for a big right as the last person. You know,
I'm not particularly worried about it. I mean, you've got
what so what are our what's our guard situation? You
have Jayen Lowe, you've got Aberdeen, you got Jasper john
and you got Otaga Colin Chandler, you know Cam Williams

(28:06):
kind of so I think you're right. I mean, if
you ask me in college basketball, would I right now?
I'd probably want to have a guard instead of another big.
But you know, maybe, uh maybe they when Travis left,
they just thought it was a chance to give a shot.
So I don't know. I mean, they're they have a

(28:28):
lot of depth, but but you know, after Brandon Garrison,
there's a lot of unknowns at that center position in
some ways, so maybe take two shots at it.

Speaker 5 (28:37):
They're deep at the front court. Not worried about that
at all. You're fine if you have a healthy season.
I mean, if you have any injuries like you did
a year ago, I mean you're doomed no matter what
your roster looks like. But as long as low can
play the whole year, I think they'll be fine in
the back court. It would be nice to have one
more behind them, but that's just Kentucky fans being greedy.

Speaker 4 (28:56):
We want two at every spot and we want three.

Speaker 5 (28:59):
I mean, yeah, if you got other rosters, there's teams
in much worse shape than Kentucky's.

Speaker 4 (29:03):
Yeah, I mean, and they have they have, in my
guy opinion, three guys that could play point guard in
a pinch, which is Aberdeen Chandler. And you could even
play a whole position too. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (29:15):
So I'm equal critical of Colin Chandler. How he played
point guard this past season just a little bit. But
you gotta remember last summer he didn't practice as a
point guard. He barely even practiced at all. If he
goes into the year and spends the whole offseason knowing
that he's gonna have to do a little ball handling,
I think that can completely change his development.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
Did you say we have somebody? Shannon? Oh? I thought
you did. Okay, if I'm nine two eight oh twenty
two eighty seven, I do feel like they probably h
they have have enough. Are you seeing the uh? Did
you see after we talked about Newark? Did you see
what happened at Newark yesterday? Tell us about it? Newark Airport.

(29:52):
We talked about all the problems. It turns out a
week ago, for two minutes, the entire system went off
the grid at Newark and for two minutes, all the
air traffic controllers lost control of all planes. Oh my goodness.
The reason it apparently happened is they switched over the

(30:15):
system from Long Island, New York to Philadelphia because Long
Island had two people quit, so they didn't have enough
people to do it, so they switched it over to
Philadelphia to oversee it. But then Philadelphia apparently now has
to do Philadelphia and Newark and they didn't, and then
they didn't have enough people because of the firings a

(30:38):
few months ago. So now two weeks ago they had
two minutes where it went off the grid and they
couldn't see any of the plane. That's a pretty traumatic event.
Apparently some of the people were very upset threatened to
quit because they were like, I can't do this anymore.

(30:58):
The FAA, who can't lose any more people, said how
about you take forty five day leave. They have, but
now they have even fewer people. So now yesterday eight
hundred flights were canceled into Newark and they are expecting
four to five hour delays today. So, Shannon, I think

(31:21):
this is a story that's not going away because these
people are still on leave.

Speaker 3 (31:25):
Right, Yeah, and even fewer people there.

Speaker 4 (31:28):
And apparently Newark because it's switched over. I don't understand
the science of it, but because it switched over from
Long Island Island to Philadelphia, they had to create a
system that you have to work in Philadelphia to understand.
So it's not like they can just bring in people
from other branches to fill in.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
It sounds like an absolute nightmare.

Speaker 4 (31:50):
An absolute nightmare. It's absolute chaos. It felt like it
didn't it wasn't chaos like it feels like everything just
started to fall apart on this and getting worse. And
you are getting on a plane today, Go grab our
suitcases and head to an airport here. Yeah, but at
least you're not going to Newark.

Speaker 3 (32:10):
We'll get the AI version of it already, just in case.

Speaker 4 (32:13):
After our conversation yesterday, I was fine still flying to Newark,
but I don't know about after I see I see that,
like they first of all the delays in and of itself,
they said yesterday they had planes that just had to
circle the city for two hours, wasting for a chance
to land.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
Well, when there was somebody there that worked at air
traffic control that said I wouldn't fly it's not safe.
That would be the moment I would be outright.

Speaker 4 (32:39):
But now you understand why they said it two weeks ago.
It just they said, the whole system just it disappeared.
They had no contact with the planes. The planes had
no way to know where the other planes were. They said,
thankfully it was a bright day so you could see everything.
But otherwise for two minutes, like what if it had
been cloudy we're talking about AI might be time to

(33:02):
bring the robots into uh air traffic Control. I mean,
I don't know. Seems like a scary situation as much
as a new Yeah. I have to say, if you
were flying into Newark today or tomorrow, wouldn't you be
like nervous, very nervous. I wouldn't imagine you on a plane.

(33:26):
Interesting to see if like people have many like canceled
flights and stuff they've had to that to that you know,
your head to the airport going to Newark. But on
a different note, recent storms may have caused damage to
your roof, but don't wait to get your roof inspect

Sports Radio. I love no matter what you talk about,
there'll be people on the text machine who will say,
to me, Joe Biden, what is the moment that when

(34:30):
bad things happen, now it's not Joe Biden's fault. Does
that just go forever? Because when good things happen, people
go because we got a new prisident. And then when
bad things happen, they go cause this president. When's the
moment you get to say it's the other one. I'd say,
we have a few more years to go.

Speaker 3 (34:51):
Yeah, the next term.

Speaker 4 (34:52):
Yeah, because every time. Every time something good, I don't
everybody go, let's be cause of Joe Biden. Every time
something's bad, let's cause of Joe Biden. Thanks lot Obama.
That's what's one too. You know, Bill Clinton, why you
got it? Why didn't you fix the airplane? No, I
it doesn't matter to me who's who's whose fault? Any
of this is. They just got to get it fixed.
Like airports, you can't just like I mean, there's still

(35:14):
people who got fly today like you, People's lives, people's
lives online, and you can't make mistakes. Two quick things
in Louisville, Shannon tonight, I'm hearing there's gonna be drama,
all right. I wish I had a camera there. You know,
we we had that caller call last week about the
Joe Creasin park.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
That's right, Yeah, the one to put the Creasing park.

Speaker 4 (35:36):
There's a park. It's a beautiful park. It's beautiful park.
They and they are gonna like take twenty acres of
the sixty five and make it pickleball, private pickleball, which,
by the way, at this resource, at this resort I
have we have here, they have free pickleball. I'm actively
turning it down. I haven't even walked to that right there,

(35:59):
and I'm like, Nope, not going So tonight they're having
a public forum and I'm hearing through the grape vine
it's going to be wild, lots of people coming to
make their thoughts known. Shannon, I would love to be
a fly on the wall at the pickleball for him
tonight because the people that are against this my neighborhood.
You know, I didn't know anything about it when that

(36:20):
woman called my neighborhood is now all signs saved the
Joe Creasing Park. So people are taking this up as
a cause, And Shannon, I bet that open forum tonight
will be something else.

Speaker 3 (36:30):
People on level are passionate about two things, parks and pickleball,
and you put the two on the spectrum and you're
gonna have a catfight going on there today.

Speaker 4 (36:39):
That is true. Forget conservative liberal parks. Pickleball. That is
the way to divide a nation right there. It's gonna
that's gonna be funny to see. I'm surprised you're not
flying back to be a part of this. Why don't
have an indion? Oh, you definitely have an opinion. You
hate pickleball. I do I do, but I don't go
to parks. I mean, I like them in theory, but

(37:01):
I don't spend a lot of time in them. Plus
they have dogs and children at the parks. Okay, this
is why you're conflicted. You can get rid of dogs
and children, but then you're looking at pickle Are there
parks where you can't have dogs or children? I think
that's the point of parks, you know, where you can't
have dogs and parks and a pickleball.

Speaker 3 (37:19):
So I'm very conflicted both sides, really, really, both.

Speaker 4 (37:24):
Of you all are the problems.

Speaker 5 (37:26):
You should show up and be anti all of it.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
Parking, you're the third party.

Speaker 4 (37:32):
How about we do this compromise. Let's get rid of
the park, Let's get rid of the pickleball. Let's put
a skyline. I'm gonna make your yard side that says,
make it a skyline, just for just for this park,
debd in your So if anybody goes to that, I'd
like to hear what happens tonight. I think it would
be nice to have it to be a fly on

(37:53):
the wall. Second, I learned something yesterday. Uh ho, what
is it? Hobvier? What was the Alverado? What jockey won
with sovereignty. Was it Junior Olverado? I'm not gonna be
I'm not sure. But anyway, the jockey that won, he
got fine shitnon because he hit the horse sovereignty with

(38:15):
his whip one too many times, which means I didn't
know this can't in a race, you can only hit
as I read the article, you can only hit the
horse in its hind quarters six times. That's it, and
he hit it a seventh time. And it's not a

(38:36):
competitive advantage. It's for the safety of the horse. So
he was fined thirty one thousand dollars. It was a
lot of money, I would think for those jockeys. But
did you know that there was a whip count maximum?
Did you know that?

Speaker 3 (38:52):
I didn't know that. No, I don't know anything about
horse racing to begin with, so I definitely I thought
you could hit it as much as you want.

Speaker 4 (38:57):
I never heard that until yesterday, that that you. I mean,
it makes sense to me. I mean, I guess we
don't want I.

Speaker 3 (39:05):
Mean I don't want to abused, you know, yeah.

Speaker 4 (39:07):
I don't want to use the whole run. But I
don't understand is why six is okay? But like, yeah,
I can, yeah, to me, six is a weird number.
It's not you would think it'd be five. With their
science behind this, did they like or maybe just if
it's so bad, just don't like you can't do it
at all.

Speaker 3 (39:27):
I think we should get to hit the jockey six times,
and that's his punishment. Every time you go over, we
give you seven lashes.

Speaker 4 (39:38):
But I did. I had no idea that was the rule?
Did you know? I had no? I did.

Speaker 5 (39:41):
Do you think there's like a conscious decision while they're riding,
like crap, I'm in foul trouble here, I've already done
it five times.

Speaker 4 (39:47):
We're a little behind. I'm just gonna take this fine
and hit it twice.

Speaker 3 (39:50):
Lost count it happens.

Speaker 4 (39:51):
Yeah, I don't know. Interesting, just an interesting little tibbit.
Who's next? Ron? Go ahead?
