Speaker 4 (01:36):
It's always a good spot for you know.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
I've noticed a lot of graduates who are like, what
do I talk to my dad about?

Speaker 4 (01:42):
Do you just go to Chaos Bar Shannon?

Speaker 3 (01:43):
And then they can sit and dad can be like, oh,
that's Jamal Mashburn.

Speaker 4 (01:47):
Do you know who that is?

Speaker 3 (01:47):
And then the kid will go K'll be like, Mario, no,
who in the world is that? And you can feel
really old. That's the way it goes.

Speaker 5 (01:54):
Yeah, I can't believe that Mario.

Speaker 6 (01:55):
Well, I guess I should believe it because he's young,
but he doesn't know a lot of those guys from
the nineties.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
If you can't feel older, do not.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
There's no way to feel older than to ride in
the car with Mario and listen to the nineties on
nine station on Sirius and you go.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
Hey, Mario, do you know Pearl Jam?

Speaker 6 (02:14):
No, what hold on a minute, I gotta have a
talk with you, Mario.

Speaker 5 (02:18):
You don't know Pearl Jam.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
Hey, Mario, do you know n W A straight out
of content?

Speaker 5 (02:24):
No, I mean, like Mario.

Speaker 4 (02:26):
Like you would.

Speaker 5 (02:27):
I mean, I'm telling realized the world did exist before too.

Speaker 4 (02:29):
No, he does not realize.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
He does not realize that you. But now you can
sound really smart because you can tell him.

Speaker 7 (02:36):
Facts and mind and it blows his mind.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
You can be like the President of the United States
had a relationship with his intern and then they impeached
him for it and he'd go, what.

Speaker 7 (02:51):
Really, Bill Clinton?

Speaker 4 (02:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:53):
Bill Clinton? Okay, So like it's good. You can you
can sound like the smartest person alive.

Speaker 6 (02:59):
Back in our day when didn't have cell phones all
the time, so sometimes you had to go to your
neighbor's house.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
Again, you want to sound like the oldest person that ever.
Talk to stories about before cell phones. Tell people's stories
about how if you went out on a Friday night.
If you didn't go with your friends, they were just gone.
You just never saw them again, see y'all when we
get home. Like stories like that drew blow young people's mind.

Speaker 8 (03:22):
I still haven't recovered from the Day of the Oaks
where we did to show your house and you mentioned
your DVDs and he laughed at DVD's like one of those,
and I'm thinking those aren't even that old, right, I
mean that that made me feel ninety.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
When he did the DVDs.

Speaker 6 (03:34):
What is it d Before cell phones, if you were
out driving, you had a flat tire, you you had
to like walk to somebody's house or to a convenience
store or someplace to get a phone to call somebody.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
It is amazing to think about how different just even
bait like literally yesterday from Cincinnati to Owensboro. You put
it in your phone. It tells you how to get there.
There would have been a time that I would have
had to check with someone or get a map out
where's the hotel again it's on what road? And like
stop at a gas station and ask for directions, and

(04:06):
so anyway, it's if you know someone in their twenties
in life, just tell them stories like that, and you
will feel like you are ancient.

Speaker 7 (04:16):
Just just yesterday, my son didn't know who Sammy Sosa.

Speaker 4 (04:20):
Was, Like, what didn't know who Sammy Sosa?

Speaker 7 (04:24):
Had never heard of Sammy Sosa. Wow, God got him
a picture what he looks like now compared to what
he used to look like.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
And it was good because he just thought what he
looked like now is just who he was. That's what
Sammy Sosa looks like. Yuh Well, anyway, you know, I
feel like we were early on this story drew. But
once again this morning, at five am, the Newark Airport
lost all off control with flights again. They were up

(04:53):
for twenty seconds. The radar and all radio went out
at five am today. You know, I'm sure it would
cause massive disruptions to everything, but I'm kind of amazed
they're still letting people fly in and out of there
if this has now happened multiple times. I noticed when

(05:15):
I landed in Cincinnati last night. I just looked at
the board. There were two flights that were supposed to
come in from Newark to Cincinnati. Both had been canceled.
That was just you know, in that airport. My mom
said to me, if you decide to fly to Newark,
do not tell me.

Speaker 4 (05:31):
I do not want to know. But it's kind of
amazing they're still using it.

Speaker 8 (05:35):
Has there been any stads or info on people? Just
like no showing their flights or canceling their flights. I
seen there's been cancelations this morning and tons of cancelations.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
I you know, what do you do?

Speaker 3 (05:48):
Like if you're the former dude on the road rules
that's now in charge of Transportation secretary by the way,
one of the more qualified people in this in this administration.
I'm just kidding, but you know, I'm not if what
do you do if you're him? I see him on TV.
He seems like a pretty smart guy.

Speaker 4 (06:07):
I don't know what you do? Like do you do?
You? You just let it go.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
I mean, there's only three airports in the New York
I'm sure it would be a disaster to have one
of them closed, But like it feels crazy dangerous.

Speaker 7 (06:20):
The fact that now it's happened more than once. Do
you think there's that got that investigation that made there's
something the farious going on?

Speaker 5 (06:27):
What the farious?

Speaker 4 (06:30):
He sounded like it it's the first time you've ever
said that word.

Speaker 8 (06:32):
The time I think it was.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
Well, I mean they say, I mean that, they say,
the reason is this old system, the thing got converted.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
I read New York Times had a long reason as
to why.

Speaker 3 (06:48):
But the but in the most optimistic view, it won't
be fixed until August.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
So Shannon, if.

Speaker 3 (06:55):
It's not gonna be fixed until August, I just don't
know how you can keep having people lying out of it.

Speaker 5 (07:01):
I wouldn't be one of them.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
Let's say you have to go to New York. Have to,
and I'm sure the other airports are getting full.

Speaker 4 (07:08):
Yeah, are you what are you gonna do?

Speaker 6 (07:10):
I guess I'm gonna drive and part my car for
eighty dollars. You would not go, No, absolutely not. They
really should offer a refund knowing what's going on to
anybody who already has a flight book there. And if
it happens once, that's an accident. Two times for me
is a trend. And definitely are I mean, like.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
This has been in the news and then it happened
again this morning, Like I do think it starts to
get scary after a while.

Speaker 8 (07:34):
I'm supposed to go in June. I haven't booked my
flight yet. I'm wondering how much more is worth paying
for the other airports?

Speaker 6 (07:40):
How much is your life worth that it.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
Is worth about it.

Speaker 8 (07:48):
I probably will pay a premium for Laguardier or JFK, though.

Speaker 3 (07:51):
Newark is very convenient, though well it's not now apparently
now another thing that's worth noting. Okay, And and I
don't know exactly how this is gonna play out, but
you know, we've talked a lot about in the last
couple of years, the House settlement, in the future of
college sports, etc. So Trump is apparently or either I
don't know if he's done it officially, if they've just

(08:12):
announced he's going to is going to create a college
Sports Commission to figure out the future of college sports.
In theory, I don't think that's a bad idea. It's
going to be chaired by Nick Saban, which I find
a little odd because Nick Saban's a smart guy, but

(08:32):
he's also a football coach. Like at the end of
the day, I feel like you need somebody who understands business.
But I think there's also gonna be maybe a business
guy on it too. But Nick Saban's gonna be the chair.
They're gonna, hopefully they're gonna come up with ideas for
the future. I don't want to get into legal mumbo jumbo,
but pretty much anything they try to do unilaterally, I

(08:55):
think courts are gonna say they're gonna strike it all down.
They're still gonna have They're gonna have to pass congressional legislation.
If they don't, they're just asking to get struck down
by the court. In my opinion, anything the president does
on his own with this is gonna get struck down.
There's gonna have to be congressional legislation. But let's just

(09:16):
assume they come up with something that fixes it. Do
you think Nick Saban is the right person to create
the future of college sports?

Speaker 7 (09:24):
Well, in theory. To be honest, I love the idea.
There's got a committee that he's gonna look into it.
Is he the right guy? I mean, he seemed to
kind of, you know, be having a pretty good handle
with the recruiting world, in the nil world. I guess
I can't think of anybody maybe better. They're off the
top of my head.

Speaker 5 (09:40):
But but he quit coaching because he retired.

Speaker 4 (09:44):
That's fine issue. First of all, the dude is in
his seventies.

Speaker 3 (09:48):
He quit because he doesn't want this and now you're
gonna put him in charge of fixing this.

Speaker 7 (09:53):
He's gonna go back to the way it was before exactly,
which is gonna get struck down by the courts again.

Speaker 5 (09:59):
I mean, he's gonna say and then it's like everybody.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
They've talked about putting on the thing. Everyone I've seen
are people who are anti nil. And it seems it
feels like to me the NCAAA, there have been shut talks.
The NCAA has gone to Trump and has talked to him.
The NCAA is just trying to continue to put off
what is inevitable Drew, which is they're gonna have to

(10:24):
do this and put Nick Saban, who was against it.
I just I don't Actually I can't believe I'm about
to say the sentence, But I actually trust Ted Cruz
and Cory Booker more because those two got that's a
bipartisan thing. They can pass a law that could stand
up to the courts. I just think this is a
bad idea. To have Nick Saban come out and do

(10:46):
that just makes that to me it won't work.

Speaker 8 (10:49):
Yeah, when he retired, he made it pretty clear, I
don't want to deal with these kids with their handout
just want money. I just want to coach football and
they need to be looking to the future. That's kind
of looking backwards to me. I mean when pull up
to Nick Saban, I think he would just go back
to paying them from all his car dealerships in the Alabama.
Don't get me wrong, that's what he did. Maybe that's
the model will have.

Speaker 4 (11:09):
What do you mean that what he did? You have information.

Speaker 8 (11:11):
Absolute Google Nick Saban Car Dealership Alabama, and he'll just
show you all the players he signed.

Speaker 4 (11:17):
First of all, I don't I wouldn't now I don't
know if that's true.

Speaker 5 (11:19):
Addit thread.

Speaker 4 (11:21):
But you know you're saying Nick Saban did he own
the card?

Speaker 8 (11:24):
Well you don't think Alabama got those rosters legitimately, right,
of course not, but you have.

Speaker 4 (11:29):
Very specific facts.

Speaker 8 (11:31):
I don't know what models of cars they were selling,
but all those players didn't sign up to go to
Tuscaloosa for free. Now I think Nick Saban might take
us back to that model.

Speaker 5 (11:40):
I know what.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
I got a Google. When this is.

Speaker 8 (11:44):
All right, I w a website.

Speaker 4 (11:45):
I will do my research. Cho's up next?

Speaker 3 (11:47):
Rick?

Speaker 7 (11:47):
PTS up next?

Speaker 4 (11:49):
PT How are you pt?

Speaker 9 (11:52):
Hey man? Thanks for taking my call that cowpunk band
in the world not count Hammer. So I collect records,
and you've been talking about Joe Creesan. I actually have
a record by Joe Crees Homespun Wisdom. Yeah, it's called
Joe Creeson's Spinn's Kentucky Yarns. And if you want to

(12:18):
imagine like a little less Raype Garrison Keeler talking about
like bluegrass companion kind of stuff, that's what it sounds like.

Speaker 4 (12:28):
Uh.

Speaker 9 (12:29):
Anyway, if you ever want to listen to it, I
could play some cuts for you.

Speaker 4 (12:31):
Okay, Well, I appreciate it. Yeah, go ahead.

Speaker 9 (12:37):
Also out a I the other day, and I have
leard several records to play with falling games and talking
about the past season.

Speaker 10 (12:44):
So I mean, I know there's lots of stuff out
there for him, but you don't want to hear something.

Speaker 4 (12:48):
I appreciate it. I will say this one of the
cool getting to know the story.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
How many of you before we mentioned it had heard
of Joe Crees Okay a handful of people. I have
now had people both writing me and then I've read
about the guy, and I'm really glad if nothing else
this happened, just so.

Speaker 4 (13:08):
I could read about that dude. He had.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
He really was in some ways like me in the
sense of that he liked all of the sort of
small town Kentucky stories and people.

Speaker 4 (13:21):
And he did he did really cool stuff.

Speaker 3 (13:25):
He basically, at a time before you could google all
these towns, et cetera, would travel town to town and
write about.

Speaker 4 (13:30):
Them and tell story. And I just a fascinating guy.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
So like I, you know, you drive rind By Park
and you see it the highway you all have coming
in here, Ernie something, Harris, what's the name of the
does anybody.

Speaker 4 (13:50):
As we dross in Ernie Harris?

Speaker 3 (13:54):
No, I'm saying when I I know, I came off
the Interstate. I turned down down when you go straight
down from sixty five. And then there was a road
that the last time I was here was not named,
and now it's named that goes into downtown. Or you
are looking at me like I am from a different
own from Owensborough. I know this road was now okay.

(14:16):
Never the point was I was wondering who that was.
But clearly you all can't answer that question since you
all don't even know the name of the road. My
point being, sometimes you see a name on something and
you don't understand like there's a lot of history behind
that name.

Speaker 6 (14:29):
Yeah, it's been interesting, and we have Pickleball to think
for that, because if it weren't for Pickleball Matt, we
would never go look into who Joe Creasan?

Speaker 5 (14:36):
Is this?

Speaker 3 (14:36):
For the record, I know that road is named something.
I saw it and it wasn't named something the last
time I was here. Tell me about Stockton Mortgage.

Speaker 4 (15:07):
When we drive home, I'm gonna go fine, what that
road is on the.

Speaker 8 (15:09):
Ernie Harris, Ernie Harris having down the Ernie Harris.

Speaker 4 (15:12):
It's names what is it called? I I know Windowport
that's not the one I'm talking about. I know Windowport.

Speaker 6 (15:20):
There was another route.

Speaker 4 (15:21):
We'll be right back. This is KSR. Welcome back. It
is Kentucky Sports Radio.

Speaker 7 (15:30):
Anybody confirm Ernie Harris Highway.

Speaker 5 (15:32):
There is an Ernie Harris Parkway?

Speaker 4 (15:34):
All right, So there, I was partially right.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
I did see an Ernie Harris Highway, but it was
in Oldham County.

Speaker 5 (15:43):
Yeah, it's one hundred and three miles away.

Speaker 4 (15:45):
Uh, just missed it, but I did see it. Yeah,
it does exist, and it did exist. It just was
in a different part of the state.

Speaker 3 (15:53):
And I remember seeing it last night and going I
don't remember ever having never seen that exit, but that
makes more sense. I make the little to Cincinnati drive
a lot for the Reds, so that's probably where I
hadn't seen.

Speaker 7 (16:03):
They both start with an old Oldham County Owens Burle.

Speaker 4 (16:07):
He started with me too. I thought that's what he's
gonna say.

Speaker 8 (16:12):
We had a great moment yesterday where he asked what
deck sand was because he was reading an ad read
and it said decks and he stops space. One of
my favorite moments.

Speaker 4 (16:22):
Yeah, that's a great that is a great moment.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
Speaking of the Reds, I watched the Reds Braves game
last night on the airplane and just stayed bad.

Speaker 4 (16:31):
The whole time.

Speaker 3 (16:32):
The Reds found fifteen different ways to blow that game.

Speaker 4 (16:36):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (16:36):
I mean they had second and third with Ellie and
and McLean up one out, couldn't get a hit, up
four to two in the ninth, blow it, give away,
a seat, give away, a ball that barely gets how
the infield lets him score, and the guy's up at third.

Speaker 4 (16:52):
They just I'm done. I'm back to be done again.

Speaker 7 (16:56):
There are only one game under five hundred, I.

Speaker 4 (16:59):
Know, but they sit.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
They have had at least ten games this year that
I can think of that they should have won, including
Opening Day.

Speaker 4 (17:05):
They could, they could have been good. And now Hunter
Green's hurt. We were done.

Speaker 5 (17:09):
Your left fielder broke his forearm in the first game.

Speaker 3 (17:12):
I don't think they First of all, left fielder broke
his forearm, caught it, and then they didn't even give
him credit for it.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
They let the guy get a home run while he's
sitting there with his arm. Half the ball was on
the ground, but he caught it.

Speaker 5 (17:25):
He didn't catch it, and his arm broke his glove.
He didn't catch it.

Speaker 4 (17:29):
I mean how cruel is that the man is broken
his arm.

Speaker 6 (17:32):
I saw a lot of Reds fans were upset because
Matt Olson continued to run the bases.

Speaker 4 (17:36):
He should have sid.

Speaker 5 (17:40):
This is not a courtesy.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
Broke his arm and then they just let him score
from first. I thought that was ryan. I thought that
was extremely rude.

Speaker 7 (17:48):
I'm so glad you're talking about this because I was
listening to the Reds driving here last night. They go
up four to two in the bottom of the ninth
and can't hang on. Brakes score two in the bottom
of the ninth to tie it.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
But it wasn't just that. It was saying, you watched
it shit like they blew it so many different ways.
And you know in the extra innings they let the
people start on second.

Speaker 4 (18:08):
Both innings we couldn't get him to score.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
He bunted the ball and the dude just the butt.
They are so frustrating, they are so dumb, all the
whole team.

Speaker 5 (18:23):
More games to go.

Speaker 4 (18:25):
Yeah, Braves are backron.

Speaker 3 (18:27):
I only have tickets, so we have tickets for sixty
of them. So it h you know, it should be great,
very very frustrated. I will say tonight, if you're not
doing anything They are saying that Madison Square Garden tonight
might be the best environment in the Gardens since the
nineties when Reggie Miller showed up. You know, Knicks are

(18:49):
up two games of zuo getting in the building, Okay,
just getting in for a basketball game. The lowest priced
ticket is eleven hundred dollars Celtics tonight, just to get in.
The Knicks have not been great for a long time,
but when they're good, that place is wild. And if

(19:10):
they were to win tonight, go three to zero up
on the Celtics, it might be night night. I would
really you unfortunately have to fly to Newark probably, but
I would really love to go and be in Madison
Square Garden to night.

Speaker 4 (19:23):
It's gonna be awesome.

Speaker 7 (19:24):
Yeah, coming off you know, Saint John's had the good
year and they were filling the garden. Now the Knicks
are making this magical run the playoffs, gonna fill the
garden again. I don't know how they beat the Celtics
other night down twenty and came back.

Speaker 4 (19:34):
Twice, and I have come back both times. Don't you
feel good?

Speaker 3 (19:37):
Now?

Speaker 4 (19:38):
It's early, it could still screw up, but don't you
feel good? Drew for Carl town.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
Oh, he's taken so much heat over the years, and
like it feels like he has found his place and
his rhythm, et cetera.

Speaker 8 (19:49):
Yeah, even though he played well for Minnesota, he had
the drama with Jimmy Butler, a lot of things. I
painted Carl on a bad light when I think he's
just a good guy. And it might have been while
they were being negative about him. But he goes home
to York. You know, he's from right in that area,
I think, across the Hudson Rivers. So I'm thrilled that
in his first year he has them in this spot.
He's played great in the playoffs so far too.

Speaker 3 (20:08):
I know you're a Celtics fan, Channing, so I mean
you would disagree with this, but as a neutral party
who doesn't really care, I'm for the Knicks. I feel
like basketball is better when the Knicks are good. I
think it's it's a cool story with all those guys
from Villanova, you know, a big time for Villanova, all
those guys from Villanova, the Pope, I mean, things are

(20:28):
big for Villanova, and then you get Carl.

Speaker 4 (20:31):
I just think it's I think it's awesome.

Speaker 6 (20:32):
If they weren't playing my Celtics. I would be for
the Knicks, and those next teams in the nineties were
so good. Unfortunately they just ran into Michael Michael Jordan
every every year of Jeordan.

Speaker 8 (20:42):
New York fans can be hard to like sometimes, but
I've their watch party in front of the Garden and
even the ones that stayed around in Boston were channing.
You can just tell they're fired up for this run.

Speaker 3 (20:51):

Speaker 4 (23:53):
News, Rick Wow big More.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
University of North Carolina issues a statement and says, while
Jordan Hudson is not an employee of the University of
North Carolina, she is always welcome at North Carolina football facilia.

Speaker 4 (24:14):
That right, Oh wow.

Speaker 8 (24:17):
She stood over someone's desk and told them to send
that out.

Speaker 6 (24:19):
She's going to be the president of that school, dude,
she is, that's right.

Speaker 5 (24:23):
Nobody will tell her no.

Speaker 4 (24:25):
I mean, how about you and c issuing?

Speaker 3 (24:27):
Can you imagine Mitch Barnhardt issuing an official statement that
says someone's girlfriend is allowed back into the facility.

Speaker 5 (24:34):
This is unbelievable.

Speaker 6 (24:36):
They plays during the season. She's gonna have the headset
on the fact that.

Speaker 7 (24:40):
The university has to issue this statement just makes it
so ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (24:44):
Love it, I love it. I'm starting to, you know,
my view on it just keeps flipping. I'm starting to think,
be honest with me, this woman's kind of badass.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
I mean, like I mean, college athletics a lot of
dudes who kind of run the show and thinking like
he's just taking over all of them. I think she
might be maybe she should hit the college football Commission
instead of Nick sabing she kind of think runs things.

Speaker 8 (25:09):
I'm actually I'd be a little afraid of her. She's
in the university rock in the office with a picture
of their family and just said, you know, send this out,
make sure I'm good.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
Yeah. Wow.

Speaker 6 (25:19):
So part of that initial report that she's not welcome
come from Okay.

Speaker 8 (25:24):
So I saw him tweeting that he was. He was
nod backing down on it.

Speaker 4 (25:28):
He's not back.

Speaker 8 (25:29):
Well A few people said, are you sure about this?
He was like absolutely so uh a little scoop off.

Speaker 3 (25:34):
Maybe it's how it was, and it changed so they
you know, we talked a couple of days ago about
the Triple Crown and about moving the Preakness and the Belmont.
The Preakness came out yesterday and said they agree with
people that say the date should be changed and they
would like to move it back, and they suggested the
exact weekend I did Memorial Day. And then the Belmont

(25:58):
came out and said we ain't moving. So so ultimately
now we know who to blame. It is the Belmont.
The New York State Racing Commission. They said the Belmont
is historic and everyone buddy wants it on the day
that it is, which is a complete lie because no
one even knows when the Belmont steaks is. It's not
like the first Saturday in May. When is the Belmont

(26:20):
steaks Judy five weeks, five weeks.

Speaker 4 (26:24):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
You don't even know the date. You go five weeks
after the Derby. So that's a lie. But now we know,
at least Shannon who to blame if we're not able
to change the.

Speaker 6 (26:33):
Triple Horse Racing is a sport that needs casual fans.
You need fans like me that would be interested in
watching a horse run for the Triple Crown. Now that
sovereignty is out, I have no interest at all in
watching Prikna's or the Belmont one.

Speaker 3 (26:47):
And also I learned some stuff I didn't know. So
when people talk about history, they say, you know, they say, well,
this is how it's always been, and I actually read
an article it hasn't been. These dates started in nineteen
sixty nine. Before nineteen sixty nine, there were years the
Belmont was before the Preakness and the Preakness was after it.

(27:07):
There were times that there were bigger gaps. There actually
were times there were smaller gaps. It's changed, but this
was also the most fascinating thing to me.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
Ryan.

Speaker 3 (27:17):
Back in the day, the average Derby horse started twelve
races before.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
They ran in the Derby. Now they start an average of.

Speaker 3 (27:27):
Four or five races. Horses are not trained to run
as long. And when they asked a couple of the
trainers why, they said, Look, these bloodlines have gotten so
narrowed to the same few horses that the horses just
physically can't go as long for as long as they
used to. Whether that's true or not, the fact that
they run half as many races before the Derby suggests

(27:50):
that maybe we should change with the way horses are
run now. So why not push it back and make
it more exciting? And especially the thing you said about
the Bellmont puzzles me. They've moved the Bellman want to
Saratoga this year?

Speaker 4 (28:01):
See, yeah, they act like it's sacred.

Speaker 3 (28:03):
It's in a different track this year, it's it's Saratoga
for the next two years.

Speaker 4 (28:07):
It can't be that sacred.

Speaker 7 (28:09):
Can't live that they're changing the track. They not change
the date.

Speaker 3 (28:12):
Can you imagine they just moved the Derby turf Way
for a year, Like they're.

Speaker 4 (28:16):
Not gonna do that.

Speaker 8 (28:17):
Now that I know the Preakness would move, they should
just move anyway until the Belmont do it. It will be
the weekend before you and you can deal with the consequences.

Speaker 4 (28:24):
Huh. That would be an interesting way to do it.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
But now we at least if you want it to happen,
we now know the exact entity. Maybe we can get
the people who change Joe Crease in part to go
up there to the Belmont and make it work.

Speaker 4 (28:35):
Who's up next? Jerry is next? Jerry? Go ahead? Jerry?

Speaker 10 (28:41):
Hey Man, back on this thing you're talking about at
New York. Having flown up in that airspace for years
and all over the country, what I would tell you
is I wouldn't be concerned about your physical safety as
far as plane crash or anything. But what happens is
when those systems go down, you go back to the
what they controlled traffic in the fifties. It's a lot

(29:03):
of mental stuff and they had to really decrease the
number of aircraft there. So so you're gonna have cancels
in the lays, which would be a reason not to
go there. But it's not It's not a thing We're
planes going to be falling out of the sky. It's
pilots and controllers are trying to deal with this. We
deal with it all the time. And even if all

(29:24):
the radios on the airplane go out, I still have
a way to communicate with a PC if I need to.

Speaker 5 (29:29):
Yeah, I wouldn't be.

Speaker 4 (29:30):
That word that well, I appreciate the info. I appreciate it.
I will say this.

Speaker 3 (29:36):
Shedon, I actually feel sorry for the air traffic controllers there.
I mean, I'm sure that is a that is a
job that right now. You know, there's only fifteen of them.
They've had they had they lost a bunch and then
five people took the leave, so you have fifteen people
operating that. I saw the Transportation secretary and Pete Bootage

(29:59):
is the previous agreed with this. They said, you can't
just move somebody else. The systems are completely different. So
it's like we can't even bring somebody to somebody else.

Speaker 4 (30:08):
So think about those fifteen people all stress thing, Yeah,
that would that would suck.

Speaker 6 (30:14):
You got those fifteen people doing the jobs of two
or three other people. You got of like you know,
being a radio host and having to produce your own show,
you're doing a lot of different things at once.

Speaker 5 (30:22):
It could be very stressful in a lot of lives
on the line. That's right. It's true.

Speaker 4 (30:27):
You're comparing yourself to the.

Speaker 5 (30:29):
Multitasking part, not saying I'm saving lives here.

Speaker 4 (30:33):
I don't think you know.

Speaker 8 (30:34):
You're on air traffic control.

Speaker 5 (30:36):
That's true. I am on the air.

Speaker 4 (30:38):
You do. To be fair to you, you do run
your show, answer the.

Speaker 6 (30:42):
Calls, play the music, hit the brakes, hit the brakes,
and they will.

Speaker 5 (30:46):
I think I'm overqualified to do a traffic control not.

Speaker 4 (30:49):
Give him a producer. But that's that's actually a very
hard thing.

Speaker 5 (30:53):
I would agree it is.

Speaker 4 (30:54):
It is all right. So graduation, yes, give me.

Speaker 5 (30:57):
Yeah, I didn't need a pop for that, thank you.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
So graduations this weekend. Uh, it's today and tomorrow. Drew's
wife has a big part in that. She's isn't she.

Speaker 7 (31:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (31:08):
I haven't seen her in a few weeks. She's working
all night, all day.

Speaker 10 (31:11):
Uh.

Speaker 8 (31:11):
This is a big part of what she does in UK.

Speaker 3 (31:13):
You were saying that, like, uh, sometimes people wait till
the last minute.

Speaker 8 (31:17):
There's some there's some kaossome until the last second. She
was pretty busy last night. But it is pretty neat
knowing all that I get to see the list. I mean,
you can't put this out too, but all the people
going through it. I didn't realize until yesterday that uh
Rondo is coming back to graduating.

Speaker 3 (31:29):
Ejon Rondo is graduating, Uh this weekend. He I think
you knew Rondo Ryan better than than I did.

Speaker 4 (31:39):
I mean, he was here.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
I guess what he was here in came in O three,
So he went to school in four and oh five.
I believe that's great. Maybe it's O five oh six,
I'm not sure. But anyway, he came back here, was
gonna be a grad assistant, but then didn't. There was
a couple hiccups there, but it was important to him
to graduate.

Speaker 4 (31:59):
Uh. Very cool.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
He's doing that this weekend. I think he's walking state.
So if you have a kid graduating, you may hear Rondo.
If you have a kid whose last name is in
the RS, they might be sitting next.

Speaker 4 (32:08):
To Rondo this week.

Speaker 7 (32:09):
I really admired the things he's done since he left basketball.
He does a lot of youth camps in Louisville. Really,
you know, tries to he coaches his own kids and
went back to school finish his degree. Now he was here.
He was a jerk. He was hard to deal with.
You asked anybody, just say what you think he was
a jerk. He'll probably admit he was a jerk.

Speaker 3 (32:28):
But it is kind of cool though, would Yeah, yeah,
I was a jerk.

Speaker 4 (32:33):
All right.

Speaker 8 (32:33):
Congratulations Rondo is what we meant to say.

Speaker 4 (32:36):
Yeah, congratulating graduation. Jerks.

Speaker 8 (32:40):
A lot of a lot of basketball players. There's like
one hundred and sixteen student athletes, but more basketball than
we've seen.

Speaker 4 (32:46):
In a while.

Speaker 8 (32:46):
Kirk there, almor you know you all know the names.

Speaker 3 (32:50):
Uh, let me ask you without calling them jerks, who
were the hardest people when you were in media to
deal with. I knew Rondo would be number one. I
think most media members would have said Rondo was number one.
Although Rondo's very smart, so that he was an He's
an interesting guy to talk to, even though he could
be a little prickly.

Speaker 4 (33:10):
Who else was kind of hard to deal with?

Speaker 7 (33:13):
Antoine Walker? He was hard to deal with, was he?

Speaker 5 (33:15):
Yeah? Uh?

Speaker 7 (33:17):
Gerald Fitch.

Speaker 4 (33:19):
Gerald Fitch did not seem like he was in a
good mood.

Speaker 7 (33:21):
A lot of Yeah, there's been a lot of football
players that were good guys, just not good interviews, and
you kind of know who they are. You just kind
of stay away from him because they're not a good interview.

Speaker 5 (33:31):
I never thought.

Speaker 3 (33:32):
Drew when we were doing it. I never thought, I
can't think of a player I thought was like a jerk.
The ones that the twins were hard to talk to.
They were very very quiet, especially Andrew. He was He
just didn't seem to want to deal with anybody. Is
there anybody else you can think of? You're around him
even more than I was.

Speaker 4 (33:50):
There's one.

Speaker 8 (33:51):
I actually found it funny. I don't want to label
him as a jerk, but one time I was standing
by a chair waiting for Isaiah Briscoe to come out okay,
and he literally walked up. He goes, I don't want
to talk these people. And I'm like, all right, I'm
right here, like I'm.

Speaker 4 (34:02):
One foot from you. I have to talk to you.

Speaker 3 (34:04):
I say, actually, is say at Brisco's number one.

Speaker 4 (34:07):
But he would cut up a little bit.

Speaker 8 (34:08):
He would just complain about having to do it, which
was fine, you know, especially this was around the tournament.
They'd do it three days in a row. I kind
of got his point, but he would look right at
us and pretty much admit he didn't want to be there.

Speaker 3 (34:18):
I'd forgotten about I say at Brisco. That's that's that's
a really tough.

Speaker 7 (34:22):
I got to tell you one more and people aren't
going to like this, but hold through to the story.
Rex Chapman was really hard to work with. And then
years later he came up and even apologized to us. Man,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry I was that way. I was,
you know, cocky thought I was the best thing ever.
But I'm sorry I acted that way I did so.
I think as he got older, Yeah, it seems to.

Speaker 4 (34:40):
Really want to get along with people all the time.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
During the What you say about Rex, he never wants
to cause a ruckus at all.

Speaker 5 (34:49):
That's right.

Speaker 6 (34:49):
He's pretty just like you know, whatever, average around the
middle guy that's Twitter during the.

Speaker 8 (34:55):
Caliber is he on Twitter?

Speaker 4 (34:56):
One I never seen.

Speaker 7 (34:57):
I've never seen anymore.

Speaker 8 (34:58):
No, he's been pretty quiet.

Speaker 7 (35:00):
That's where he made it a big name for himself.
Was all the stuff he did on Twitter.

Speaker 4 (35:03):
Yes, uh, DraftKings, Let's do our picks tonight.

Speaker 5 (35:06):
I was wrong.

Speaker 3 (35:06):
The Knicks and Celtics play tomorrow tonight. The Calves down
two oh to the Pacers playing in Indianapolis, not that
far from here. Cleveland's a four and a half point
favorite on the road. They gotta win tonight, Drew. Are
they gonna do it?

Speaker 4 (35:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (35:21):
I think they win and cover. I mean, they were
up seven with the minutes ago. They've had some absolute meltdowns.
I just feel like that can't keep happening. If so,
they don't even deserve to be where they are at
this point. They got a win tonight, They win tonight.

Speaker 7 (35:33):
No Pacers win. I'm a Pacers fan. They're on fire
right now. It's gonna be Pacers and Knicks. But the
championship series.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
I like watching Tyree's Haliburt and Channon because it feels
like the rest of the league. The players just don't
like it and they get mad at him, and then
he makes the shot.

Speaker 5 (35:47):
And his dad comes out and his dad comes down.

Speaker 8 (35:49):
They were chanting overrated at him thirty seconds before he.

Speaker 4 (35:52):
Hit the game win fair though.

Speaker 3 (35:53):
If your dad comes on the court and tries to
fight people, I think people are gonna be upset.

Speaker 5 (35:57):
Yeah, I'm gonna like that guy either.

Speaker 4 (35:58):
Who you got to know?

Speaker 6 (36:00):
And the NBA playoffs have been really good this year.
But I think I think the Pacers win tonight though,
what do you think?

Speaker 4 (36:04):
Who you picking? Uh?

Speaker 3 (36:05):
And then I'm gonna take I'm gonna take the Calves
to goin one. I think the Pacers win the next
one Thunder Nuggets one to one.

Speaker 5 (36:12):
That it blowout the other night, I.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
Scored one hundred and fifty points, Yeah, against them the
other night. I'm gonna take Jokic at home gets the victory.

Speaker 4 (36:20):
What about you?

Speaker 5 (36:21):
I think, Uh, I'm gonna go with the Thunder on
this one.

Speaker 8 (36:24):
I think the Nuggets win this one but lose the
next three in the series.

Speaker 7 (36:27):
All Right, Shay is on another level right now. He
is just dominating. But it's gonna be hard to beat
Yokic at the the Nuggets at home.

Speaker 8 (36:33):
I think was a plus fifty one in that game.

Speaker 3 (36:35):
I know it's crazy for the Nuggets Thunder. Just so
you know three Kentucky guys out there. You got Sga.
Murray is on Denver and in Case and Wallace. People
forget about, but that's dude could be playing in the
NBA Finals as a key contributor.

Speaker 4 (36:49):
I will still.

Speaker 3 (36:50):
Say that team if case of, if we had given
the ball to Case, and Wallace and ty Ty Washington
is our point guard.

Speaker 4 (36:58):
No offense to severe Wheeler.

Speaker 3 (37:00):
But if we had used ty Tie one year and
case in the next year Drew, I think Cal might
have finished his career here.

Speaker 4 (37:06):
I really do. I think that was a huge mistake.

Speaker 3 (37:08):
Not like those two dudes could play, especially case of one.

Speaker 8 (37:12):
I loved Caseon Wallace. He's one of the rare freshmen
that came in. Really wanted to guard and play defense.
He took down on approach because I also get to
the bucket and scores. So I've been very happy watching
him with Okac. Even though he comes off the bench,
he's playing some mean flaments. That's some big highlights.

Speaker 3 (37:25):
We forget about him, but he was a really, really
good player.

Speaker 5 (37:29):
Here.

Speaker 4 (37:29):
We will take a break and come back.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
Final segment here in Owensboro at the Kentucky Skin Cancer Center.

Speaker 4 (37:33):
It's KASR Wuterback.

Speaker 3 (37:36):
It is the final segment here at the Kentucky Skin
Cancer Center. I hope everybody has a great weekend. Don't
forget you can visit Skins Cancer Center here. Thanks to
doctor Skaggs and all the folks that have been here
and all the people who've enjoyed getting your facials during
the show. It has to be the first time that
I can remember the KSR show where people got cosmetic

(37:56):
work done during in but it has happened, and for yourself.

Speaker 7 (38:00):
And they have gift cards. Mother's Day weekend is.

Speaker 4 (38:04):
Everybody, you're gonna see your on this.

Speaker 7 (38:05):
I'm gonna leave here and go to Indiana and see
my mama.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
Absolutely, I'm meeting my parents Sunday in Beria to see
my mom.

Speaker 4 (38:12):
A little spoon bread at the uh Daniel Boon tag
Daniel Boone tavern.

Speaker 3 (38:16):
That's right. Uh, So I'm looking forward to that. After
the Matt Myron show, I gotta get back.

Speaker 8 (38:21):
Tomorrow's my wife's birthday and then the next day's Mother's Day,
and I could be more a little more prepared than
I am before, being honest, So I gotta get back
to Lexington Guards gift Guard.

Speaker 4 (38:29):
Big weekend for UK baseball.

Speaker 3 (38:31):
They play against Oklahoma this weekend in a home series,
probably a must win series, uh to make to make
the NCAA tournament.

Speaker 4 (38:41):
Probably need to win two of three to get in.

Speaker 3 (38:44):
They're kind of on the bubble after getting swept at
Mississippi State last week. All those games are at Kentucky
Pride Park. Take you prey out of park, go out
and see them weather. They're supposed to be good, especially
Saturday and Sunday, but massive games for UK Baseball as
they hope to make the post.

Speaker 6 (39:00):
Yeah, two out of three would be good this weekend.
You got Vandy after that, so if you can maybe
see it's not very good. Sure well, not compared to
years past. I think if you you know, split, maybe
go three and three. They still got a chance to go.
But you know, Kentucky baseball, just a couple of weeks ago,
we're looking like a two seed and now they're on
the cusp but not even making the tournament.

Speaker 4 (39:16):
Swept Missippi State.

Speaker 3 (39:17):
It's not good. And getting swept there I think hurt them.
But big weekend. I think the game tonight is at
six point thirty. For those of you in Lexington. If
you're in Lexington, do me favor, go see our friends
at KS Bar this weekend, you know, before the game,
after the game, or as part of your graduation festivities.
Did you see the story Ryan, as you guys are

(39:40):
college baseball guys, about what happened at the Washington baseball game.

Speaker 4 (39:44):
Last night, tell me about it. Washington is in the
Big ten.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
Obviously, they played Azusa Pacific and Nai School. They were
just doing it to get a game on their roster.
Innai School. The Nai School was eleven and thirty three
this year, So were they bad? And when I was
in aigh school, they're bad in aigh school eleven and
thirty three. Going into the seventh inning, Washington is down

(40:09):
five to four. Azusa Pacific is up five to four.
About to start the seventh inning. Mysteriously, all the lights
in Washington Stadium went out. All the lights went out,
and it was gone. Washington has a rule in their
non conference games that you have to play seven innings

(40:32):
for it to be a game. In conference games, it's
only five.

Speaker 4 (40:35):
Don't know why the rules different. Have to have seven
lights go out.

Speaker 3 (40:40):
Washington says, there's nothing we can do, impossible to turn
the lights back on, so they count the game as
having not been played.

Speaker 4 (40:50):
Seven to four.

Speaker 3 (40:51):
Didn't count it as a not for just it was
as if it never happened. Azusa Pacific, very upset, said,
this could have been the best win in the history
of our school.

Speaker 4 (41:01):
Do you think that sounds a.

Speaker 6 (41:02):
Little Yeah, somebody clearly pulled the plug the cut the
power so they didn't have to finish that game. If
I'm not Nai Scho, I'm like, you know what, We're
gonna stay here overnight. We'll wait till tomorrow morning. We're
gonna finish this game.

Speaker 4 (41:15):
What do you make of that?

Speaker 7 (41:16):
Yeah, no doubt the manager made a signal there cut
the lights. But if I'm a ZUSA Pacific, I'm making
t shirts lights out Washington.

Speaker 4 (41:23):
With the school.

Speaker 5 (41:25):
I like that.

Speaker 7 (41:25):
Yeah, I'm celebrating that win.

Speaker 4 (41:28):
Sounds it sounds a little suspect. Definitely.

Speaker 7 (41:31):
When Trancy was ahead of Kentucky eleven to ten, they
made a poster and had the scoreboard on there.

Speaker 3 (41:35):
We didn't cut the lights at that point and finished
playing the game.

Speaker 4 (41:38):
I was shandon. I would have said, we're staying here
and on.

Speaker 8 (41:40):
Tomorrow, I'd still be standing at home plate waiting. When
you're setting up, I thought it was like a cal
Ripkin situation. Maybe Kevin Costner involvement and some Yeah, tell
me they were losing. Someone definitely just stepped in there
and pulled the plug.

Speaker 3 (41:53):
Hey to you folks in Owens Borro, thank you very
much for coming in yes today, we really appreciate it.

Speaker 4 (41:59):
Great craft I say this all the time. It's awesome.
It's awesome.

Speaker 3 (42:04):
All the cans are fans, But to sit out here
for people who are at home, it's kind of cold.

Speaker 4 (42:08):
And everybody's still set out here in the whole show.
It's nice.

Speaker 3 (42:12):
It's good to get back on the road. I saw
that T shirt from the twenty fourteen. We used to
do thirty five of these every summer. We don't do
it as much, but trips like this make me want
to do it again. So thank you all very much,
Thanks to Kentucky Skin Cancer Center, and a big thank
you tomorrow for picking me up at the airport last
night at eleven o'clock at night to make sure I
could get to Owensboro this morning. We will see you

(42:34):
on Monday. Have a great Mother's Day weekend. Tell your
mothers you love them. Congrats to all the UK graduates.
