(00:21):
brought to you by Italics Fine Italian Donning in Lexington,
which is where my co host Billy R Sports is
broadcasting from downtown Lexington at the iHeartRadio Studio. Look at a
little stressed this morning, buddy, everything okay, you're good. What's
going on? You know?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Things are fine? Okay, now, things are fine. It's just
been an eventful morning. I was rear ended this morning.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
So it was, uh, well what hold on, hold on,
hold on a rear ended, like okay, all.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Right, oh yeah, yeah it was one of those like
you know, I was stopped and they just I guess
didn't hit the brake and they rolled into me.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
That's usually how the rear end works. Yeah, that's right,
it was. It was.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
You know, Winchester Road turns into Midland app and Midland
Avenue has one right turning lane to get onto main Street,
and so in the mornings that can be really backed up.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That is a line.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I'm talking like er point three point four miles of
just backups of cars trying to turn right. So I'm
getting towards the front and my car is stopped and
somebody rolls into.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Me, Shannon. So I throw on.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
The flashers, get out, and you know, look at the
car and it's a college kid and he's panicking, and
you know, I'm so sorry. I just rolled it, you know,
didn't hit the brake. So sorry, h buckle up, put
your phone down.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
So I look at the I look at my uh
look at my bumper in the back, and uh, Shannon,
there's no damage. So I just say, hey, come on,
get out. No cell phone video filming in somebody's face.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Oh oh my neck. Oh I know, I gotta call TJ.
He'll make you pay.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
So yeah, there's like one of two ways you can
handle that situation, right. You can you can continue to
hold up traffic. You could get his insurance provider, right,
get the phone numbers, license plates, Shannon, and I just said, hey,
there's no damage, get at here, okay, Yeah, all.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Right, Well I'm glad that everybody's okay, and and the
car is okay. Not even a scratch, No, not even
a scratch. Car was fine.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
I didn't need to make a big deal out of it, Shannon,
Old Bessie's fine. So, uh, you know, that was a
little bit of an eventful part of this morning. And
then I get into the the iHeart Studios here in
Lexington and we have a new gift, Shannon. The Plinko
board has been purchased for the Lexing Tid Studios.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Plinko like you mean, like the big tall Plinko where
you gotta climb the stairs to get to the top
of it.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Like the price is right. Yeah, here's the thing. It's
not as big as those photos. Uh you know what
we thought when when we saw the Costco photos. But
how big is it? It's a it's not big at all.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Really. It's like when I need a ladder to get
up there to drop. No ladder needed.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
It's it's you know, about as tall as this Twinkies
box I got over here in the corner uh. But
Kathy has made it an initiative to put a Plinko
board in every office here in the region. So when
sales makes a big sale, they can possibly get a
price shit and there's gonna be prizes at the bottom
of it. And every time somebody brings in a new
business they can go on the plink Coo board.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Do you like the the initiative? I do. I do,
But I'm also seeing, like I was thinking when you
said Plinko board, I was like, oh, I know why
we have a Plinko board. It's to take out on
remote so that we can play with our listeners plinko
and if you win, you get like a you know,
a T shirt or something like that. So you know,
tomorrow I'm going to be out after we do our
Mountain Laurel KSR thing. I got to go to Sugar
(03:38):
Days and I don't know if you know what that is.
It's in Lexington. No, I've not I know what Sugar Days.
So Sugar Days is it's going on at the Kentucky
Horse Park. It's all tech arena, but it's going on
all weekend long and it's this thing where it's kind
of catered to guys a little bit like they got
the man Cave. They got like bourbon tastings and hand
rolled cigars, and you know, all the things that guys
(03:58):
like knives and fishing equipment and all that type of stuff. Okay,
and I think the Harley Davidson girls are going to
be there, so they got me broadcasting out there from
two till four tomorrow. But they've also got things for
the women too, So they've got it says it says
blue light and red light therapy. I have no idea
what that means. Do you know the difference between blue
and red light therapy? I don't know the difference.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I did do some red light therapy when I was
going through rehab for my back a few years ago,
so I'm a little familiar with it.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Shannon, Okay, all right, so what's the difference between blue
and red?
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I don't know. I was gonna ask you what's blue
light therapy? Regardless they're gonna have that going on out
there tomorrow with this double Q remote that I'm going
to be at. I was going to ask you, Billy,
if you you know you got to give me some
T shirts from the leg teachery for you buddy, ye,
would you mind throwing that plink O game in the
van too? That way I could take that to the
remote and play Plinko with the listeners.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
You think, well, if you're willing to build it, maybe
I see if I can get permission to take it.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
But no, no, no, no, no, just just just we'll ask for
permission after with.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
The fact, well you just want me to take it,
She said, yes, that these can be used for remotes
in the future if we don't want to do any
giveaways and things like that. So I don't think it
would be that out of the ordinary. But do you
want me to bring it so you can build it
or do you want me to wait.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Until say build it? You say, it's not that big
first of all, So I mean I'm assuming it's like
two pieces you clunk together and you dropped the little
plank go board and there you go. If it's only
a few feet tall, then.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
So she asked me if I had a screwdriver, and
I said, no, I don't carry one of those around.
Do you think most men have a screwdriver on them
at all times?
Speaker 1 (05:34):
No? No, no, okay, if it's anything more than you know,
I don't like assembly. We've already talked about this. It
took me a week to put together a bed, all right,
So like peace and love, Peace and love, do not
give me anything to a symbol. I am not Bob
the Builder. I am terrible at building things if it's
like more than two or three pieces, So you know,
don't give me three pieces of wood and tell me to,
(05:56):
you know, hammer together a triangle. It's not going to happen.
I just can't do it.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Well, I'm just excited that, you know, maybe you can
live out your dream as a game show host with
these plink Go boards. That's what I want to get
it throughout the region. Yes, I can't wait to get
one in Louisville. Oh well, it sounds like it's coming.
So sales team, a.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Little watch out, a little bit of false advertising, don't
you think on the Plinko thing, because it shows the
full length Plinko board and then you get it and
it's two foot tall.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Well, the photo we got really did do us dirty, Shannon.
We thought it was you're gonna have to get on
a ladder to get up on that thing, but they
decided to take that photo from the ground. And that's
why I guess it was such a distorted image, but
it's it's much smaller than you think. But maybe you'll
see if I can snag it before I get out
of here.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
So coming up on KSR today, we will hear the
recorded interview that Mark Pope did with Matt and looking
forward to hearing that. I have not heard it yet,
so I'll be hearing it for the first time, just
like all of you. Billy, I think you had to
do some editing and some chopping and slicing and dicing
of the yeah, the so I'm assuming that you've at
least heard some of that. I don't want you to
(07:03):
spoil the broth, But are you as excited about it
as I am after hearing it?
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Well, I mean, I guess not as excited as you
are because I've already heard it. But every time I
hear that guy speak, I can't help but get excited
for the next season, right, And you know, Mario's already
released at least one clip about it, and you know
his excitement and wanting to play the best teams and
the biggest arenas, and even Mario shared behind the scenes
clip where you know, Mark was talking about the power
(07:30):
of radio and community and saw that connection points and
I thought that was a really sweet moment, and I'm
sure Matt really appreciated that. But you know, Pope was
able to get us about, you know, forty two minutes
of his time, and you know, it was it was
a nice change of pace that a commercial break didn't
mean the man had to get up and walk away,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Like it was they were able to have a long.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Form kind of sit down and talk about some good
things and also some insight into you know, how he's
constructed this roster, Shan, And so I'm excited for every
ready to get to hear that. We'll start that maybe
a little after ten forty five, Shannon, Is that right?
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Yeah, yeah, we'll do that. It's a five segment interviews.
So what we're going to do is, you know, play
it on the show as much as we can, and
then you know, if you want to go back on podcast.
I think we're going to have it just in its entirety,
completely uninterrupted, not you know, clunk together, because if you're
going to be listening like hour one an hour two,
the first part of the interview is going to be
at the end of hour one, if this makes any
(08:26):
sense what I'm saying to you, Yes, but I believe
we're going to take it all together in one piece
and post that on the podcast feed as well later
on if you want to listen that way so it
doesn't sound clunky, right, that's right.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
The full podcast will be available right after the show.
He calls out Ryan Lemon at one point. That's about
all I'm going to write.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Calls out Ryan. Ryan's very pro pope. He's not you know,
he doesn't ever say anything negative. Well maybe for a
good reason. Okay, I'll be interested in hearing what that
what that has to do with? Uh? Speaking of Kentucky basketball,
yesterday Billy was announced that they've get another prese You know,
they were already scheduled to play Perdue on October twenty
fourth at Rup. Another game was thrown onto the preseason schedule.
(09:07):
You get Georgetown. I know we're not talking about Georgetown Kentucky.
We're talking about the Hoyas, Billy, Georgetown Hoyas coming to
Roup Arena on October thirtieth. Do you like this new
preseason schedule? We're playing teams that I think more people
care about. Not to say that, you know, we don't
care about our Kentucky schools, but it's going to be
I think more of a competitive game when you get
(09:29):
Georgetown to Perdue come into rupp Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
I think it goes back to Mark wanting to play
the biggest and best teams. And when the rule changes
where you can play exhibition games against Division one opponents,
why not play against really good teams, right, test your
team early instead of you know, the poop states, Shannon,
You're going to be a battle tested against teams like
Perdue and Georgetown. So I'm not sure how good Georgetown's
(09:52):
going to be this next year. I know Purdue has
been a staple for the last decade or so, so
you got to think those guys will learn and get
valuable experience early on in the year. So I think
Mark is approaching this the right way. And you know,
the two teams haven't met since what nineteen eighty four,
and there were some weird things that happened in that game, Shanon,
I don't know if you know the history about it,
(10:12):
but there's some conspiracy theories and.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Well, no, what sorts of things I don't know about this.
What was the conspiracy theory? Well, Kentucky lost fifty three
to forty. Oh yeah, conspiracy theory. Kentucky loss has got
to be a conspiracy.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Well, hold on, in the second half, Kentucky had a
historically bad shooting. They went three of thirty three in
that second half. Now to add to this, before the
Georgetown in Kentucky game, it was Houston versus Virginia, and
when Houston won, they started a habit of getting on
top of the goal and standing on the back of
the goal and in the rim. And so after that,
(10:46):
the only it was only on one end of the court. Yeah,
but some Kentucky fans at the time theorized that the
goal at Kentucky shot towards in the second half was
the goal that Houston players had stood on in the
previous game. I guess Georgetown didn't shoot that great going
to that goal either. So there's a little history between
Georgetown and Kentucky dating all the way back to I
(11:07):
guess eighty four, and then in nineteen eighty five, Georgetown
loses the National Championship game in rupp Arena to Villanova.
So I mean, there's a little history with Georgetown and Lexington.
But you know, like I said, you're not playing these
d two D three schools anymore, you're testing yourself early
on in the year, and I think that's a great
opportunity for this team.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
So I want to go back to the conspiracy here.
So they just allowed another team to just stand up
on top of the realm, on top of the goal.
That's right, there's no rules there, just go up there
and just stand. I mean, did nobody think that maybe
that could possibly bend the rim and affect the shooting
of the next game. I guess they didn't think that.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
This was the nineteen eighty four final four semi final
yeap and Houston decided they wanted to celebrate by standing
on rims.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Shannon, Now, you know, every.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Time there's a little bit of a two heart of
a dunk, we've got to stop play to make sure
it's level.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
And they don't make those realms I'm sure you know,
like they did back there. Like right now, they've got,
you know, much better rims than they did forty years ago.
So maybe there is something to that. Now, you know,
three of thirty three. You got to find some answers,
right Yeah, Now I need to go back and watch, like,
how exactly did that happen? I think I'm down with
the conspiracy. I think I agree. So maybe when they
(12:19):
come to upp Arena, we should just bend their room
in the second half they just stand on their end
during halftime or some well, we'll make sure, you know,
we shoot on that side first and then you know,
maybe at halftime we'll make some adjustments.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
You know, halftime shows they've gotten more extravagant as the
years have gone on.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
We know Red Panda. Yeah, in my favorite time, sometimes.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
They'll they'll set up a trampoline and these guys will
fly through the air and throwing the ball backwards so
the next guy can get it.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
So, yeah, maybe just bend the room a little bit.
Eight five nine, two eighth twenty two eighty seven At
Shannon the Dude at Billy R. Sports, Frank writes in
and says, oh, I'm hearing that Billy R Sports will
be in the hospital after the show for a hit
and run. That's what he got out of that first
first part of the segment.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Yeah, I guess I could have done the hole, you know,
my back, my shoulder, you know, I got.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Rear ended a few years ago. But you know, in
a jeep wrangler, I'm not going to say that a
Jeep Wrangler is indestructible. It's not like it can be.
It can be damaged, but it's tough. And this person
that rear inted me, I mean it barely put a
scratch on my Jeep, but the front of their car
looked like a smashed coke can. Ooh, it was like boo.
(13:26):
And they hit me maybe going I mean maybe five
miles an hour and I got a little I got
a little jolt out of it. You know, it may
have moved me a couple of inches, but the damage
on the Jeep was nothing that you got your rubber
duckies out as you assessed the damage, and their car
looked like it just did you know, just went ninety
miles an hour into a brick wall.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Well, you know, that's kind of the benefit of having
a Dodge charger too. It's a little bit of a
heavier car, you know, you know, not in the punch
buggy and getting knocked back. But you know, this person
maybe hit me going one two miles per hour, and
I've had the inverse happened. You know, I've I've gotten
into a bad rear in collision where I've had to
get TJ.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
To make them pay, Shannon. So this time it was
you just go on, yep, go on, get just another
reason for a billy to say, oh, my back hurts,
I can't get in the wrestling ring with Shannam the dude.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
That's right, let me back up our workout another exactly,
That's what I'm hearing.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
All right, we'll take your calls. Coming up next. It
is the KSR pre Show. All right, welcome back. It
is the KSR pre Show. The podcast listeners don't get this.
They don't get the Dave Matthew's van crash into me music,
crash into me.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
That's a guy that will probably won't wear shoes on stage, Shannon.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
We were just talking about that during the break. Oh yeah,
you you were asking me, is it acceptable for people
to go work out the gym and not have their
shoes on? And I told it is. It doesn't bother me,
Like I'm if I'm at the gym, man, I'm doing
my own thing, like I'm not. I'm not focused on
anybody else. I'm going in there doing my im wala.
The guy that trained Julius Randall into Marcus Cousins. He
(14:59):
cousins at you the whole time too.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Yeah, I know you paused the video so you can
get a break and then you can catch your breath.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
You say you're working out with no shoes, Well, I
there's some lifts that you don't want running shoes on,
and so you want, you know, your flat feet.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
And I'm fine with people taking their shoes off, but
keep your socks on, folks.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
I don't want to see your dogs. And I think
that's are people working out at your gym with no Yeah,
sure they are. And so I'm not going to be
one of those people, Shannon. I'm not Dave Matthews in
the band. Keep your dogs locked up? Can I? I
hesitate to even share this with you, but I was
something that happened to be at the gym yesterday. Okay,
(15:37):
so it's a little it's a little gross. Well okay,
let me just back up. First of all, it's amazing
how dependent we are on electricity. Would you agree with that? Oh, Like,
when electricity goes out, you can't do anything. So I'm
sitting there last night at the house and it's not
storming or anything. It is it is really windy though,
and boom, electric goes out. So I'm like, all right,
(16:00):
and when we look at you know, the LG and anything,
and it says like it's going to be another two
or three hours before the electric comes back on. So I'm like,
all right, what am I gonna do? All right, let's
just go to the gym, right, Let's go to the gym.
Maybe they'll have power there. I go up there and
only part of the gym has electric, like I guess
maybe the running off a generator. Okay, so stay with
me here. Like the treadmills and stuff are working in
(16:20):
the back room like where I work out in has lights,
so I can work out there. It's all good. But
before I get going to my workout, I'm like, all right,
I need to go. You know, nature's calling. I need
to go. I need to go pee real quick, right
before I get going into my workout, because once I
get locked in, you know, I'm not I can't stop.
So in the restroom, it's one of the parts of
the building that has no lights. So I walk in
(16:43):
and I'm like completely pitch dark, and I not completely.
I can see a little bit, right, but you know,
there's a couple of people at the yurinal, so I
have to go to the stall to do my business.
And as I'm standing there in the dark, all of
a sudden I hear and I realized at that moment
(17:03):
what had happened. My ear pod and my left ear
falls out and straight into the toilet. So now I
got a dilemma because these are very expensive ear pods.
Not to mention, they're not even my EarPods. I was
borrowing Sarah's EarPods.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Oh no, oh, no, Sarah AirPods dropped into the toilet.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Yeah, and these are, like I said, these are the
really good ones. So now I've got a dilemma. I'm
in the dark, an ear pod has just fallen out
of my ear into the toilet that is not clean,
and I don't know what to do.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
So, Billy, what do you think I did? I think
you you pull a Michael Reagan on Lingo. You know,
reach yourself in there and get yourself a couple of balls.
You know, you better reach into the toilet and get
yourself that AirPod.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
What do you mean You're not gonna leave it in there?
Speaker 4 (17:56):
Right?
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I could have flushed it. I could have been like,
go what what AirPods? I don't know what you're talking about.
You must have lost them somewhere. So what do I do?
I think long and hard about it, think about the
consequences of not getting it, and then I go elbow deep. Oh,
or at least risk deep. Go on there, I reach
in there and grab it, take it over to the sink,
put a little soap on it, wash it off. You
(18:19):
do it the air hold on, give a little shake,
and then put it right back in my ear gulage. Bro, Shannon, Bro,
why not? If I don't have the left ear in
the right ear won't work, and then I can't do
my workout. How you can? I can't do. No, those
ear pods are connected. If you don't have the left
ear in the right one won't work.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
But you can put it back in the case and
the one will work on its own. Did you not
have the case with you?
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Yeah? I didn't know that. Oh yeah, you put one
in the case. The other one works fine.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
You put an air pod that was just dropped in
a urine filled toilet in your ear less than a
minute later.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
That's foul, Bro, I cleaned it off. You're gonna get
an ear infection or something.
Speaker 4 (19:02):
No.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I cleaned it out. I disinfected it. It went through
the whole process of soap and water. Oh my gosh, No,
it's it's good. I'm fine, though. I can hear it
even better this morning. I think I think I might
have found a natural cure. I can't.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
You know, I don't think I've ever had the situation
where a cell phone or something's been dropped into the
toilet that you've already done some business into.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
So so, you know, I'm working out and everybody's watching.
You know, they're walking by, and they have no idea
that those ear pads were just in the toilet two
minutes ago. Hey, you got urine ears. Nobody has any idea.
That's right. Wow, yep, that's getting your dogs out at
the gym. Far she's concerned. Nothing's you haven't told her. Stop, Sarah,
(19:46):
Please tell her, Hey, you know, that's what happened. And
now you know what she would probably say, Now they're yours,
you can just have them, That's what she probably would say.
So you maybe just got yourself a new pair of
ear I should tell her. Uh, here's what I'm gonna
I tell you right now. If you want to win

pictures of our miniatures. Make sure there's nothing that shouldn't
be there.

So if you can make it out there this weekend.
It's one of those things like if you're gonna be
hanging around Lexington, you're not going anywhere. It's one of
those things that guys will actually like to do a
lot of time on t shirts. Right yeah, and Heart
tickets too. Heart's coming into Rapparina, so you can win
those free tickets tomorrow. That's two to four for DOUBQ
(22:22):
at Sugar Days. All right, that's gonna do it for
this segment. We'll be right back taking more of your
phone calls here on the KSR Pre Show. All right,
welcome back. It is the KSR Pre Show eight five
to nine, two eighth, twenty two eighty seven. Shannon the Dude,
Billy Relige, taking your phone calls. We'll go back to
the line in just a minute. Gotta talk though, first, Billy,
(22:44):
about that game last night. Did you stay up and
watch the Pacers and Knicks? Of course, what a game
that was, And again the Pacers came back again. They've
already done this twice in the other series where they
were down seven with a minute to go last night,
I mean they were down what was it fourteen, I
think with two and a half minutes to go. Yeah,
and I'm like, this game's over. And somehow they came
(23:06):
back and Aaron Nesmith, former Candy player, just put the
pasers on his back. Man could not miss. I think
he scored was it nineteen points in the fourth quarter?
Twenty points in the fourth quarter. It comes down to
a miss free throw by Karl Anthony Towns and then
Halliburton drives down, looks like he's gonna go in for
(23:28):
like a you know, a short jumper, but then goes
backwards and at that moment, I'm like that's a bad decision.
Goes back for a three to try to end the game,
shoots the shot, goes off the rim, bounces five six
feet in the air, and goes right back through and
it looks like in that moment that the Pacers had
just beaten the Knicks. Haliburton does the choking sign with
(23:51):
you know, the Reggie Miller choke son that he did
what twenty some years ago, and it looks like it's over.
They go back and review it. Toe was on the
line going to overtime, and it didn't matter because the
Pacers end up winning the game anyway. But first of all,
I mean, for the Pacers to outscore the Knicks, bye,
what was it like? I think it was like twenty
to six or something like that in the last two
(24:12):
and a half minutes. Just to come back was crazy.
And then that shot Halliburton shot it looks like it
was a miss, bounces off the rim, go straight up
and then right back down. It was a crazy ending
to the regulation of the game.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
And I'm screaming at Halliburton to pass the ball to
Nie smith Man like he is on fire, Get him
the ball. And I've never seen somebody dribble in like
that and then dribble backwards. He looks at the clock
on the opposite end of the court to see how
much time he's got left. And then that turnaround shot
Kawhi Leonard Esk if you remember his game winner that
bounced high up like that in the playoffs. It may
(24:46):
have been the best NBA game that I've seen since
maybe the block by Lebron James against the Golden State
Warriors for the NBA Finals. I mean, I don't want
to be a prisoner of the moment. But that was unreal, Shannon.
Not only did it get up to maybe even sixteen
points in the fourth quarter after that early run, they
were still up seven with like fifty seconds left. Yeah,
(25:07):
I mean it was just shades of Reggie Miller. Him scoring,
was it? I mean what did he score? It was
like six points.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
And five seconds or yeah, something crazy like that.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
And then for him to do the choke Selly and
then for the game to keep going on.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
I felt so bad there. Well, I mean Halliburton he
taunted a little too soon. Yeah, but at that moment,
I'm like, all right, this game's going to overtime. If
you're the Pacers, you have to win the game after
Halliburton does the choke son right right, because I mean,
how embarrassing would it be for Halliburton to do the
you know you you just choked that game away. For
him to go Nope, not so fast, We're going to overtime,
(25:44):
and then to lose the game. He would be mocked forever,
got me, yeah saying lot forever.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Yeah, And in the Knick scored the first four points
of the overtime period, but then they and then it's
obi topping the former Nick in Madison Square Garden that
has that that double clutch dunk at the end of it.
So you're right, Karl, Anthony Town's a big miss free
throw late in that game.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
And I mean.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
If this series goes seven, Shannon, I mean, I sign
me up, you know what I mean? Like, this is
going to be maybe an all time series.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
The one thing I do not like though about the
NBA is that I'm gonna call a time out, We're
going to advance the ball. I hate that rule. Why,
what's what's wrong with that? Because you're not earning anything,
you're just calling a time out. You're getting half the
court from just calling a time out. You didn't even
have to advance the ball yourself. Like, I don't like,
we're gonna call a time out now we're gonna move
the ball to half court. No, you should have to
(26:40):
dribble the full length if that's where that you know,
after a basket, you should have to come up the
full length. I think I just don't like that rule.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
And that's in college, right, Like a timeout in college,
you've got to go the full length. There is no
advancing the ball like that. I wonder what the.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Reasoning is to try to make the game, you know,
more exciting because you can now, in theory, have a
game winner from thirty with with with one second left,
you can now have a three instead of somebody having
to you know, throw a full court shot. I would
argue that a full court you know, a three quarter
shot going down is much more exciting than advancing the
(27:13):
ball and with one second to go, somebody you know,
hits a three or a lot less likely, right sure, sure, yeah, again,
that's all part of the excitement. Though. It was good night.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
I mean, we watched Shay Gilgis Alexander when the MVP,
the first Kentucky player to ever do it, which was
surprising to me, and then you go roll right into
that great game.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
So it was. It was a great night of basketball.
Lest speaking of rules that will not be banned over
on the NFL side, Billy, the tush push, it was voted,
will not be banned or you have pro or con
toush push and football.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
I am pro tush push because I get a little
bit of a Shannon the dude take here.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
If you don't like it, stop it. Yeah, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
But at the same time, this measure only passed by
two votes. Shannon, you have to get seven five percent
of the votes from the owners to be able to
change the rule, and it only it. It did not
change only because of two votes. So, I mean there's
a lot of teams that wanted to get rid of it.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Pickers being one of them.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
They sat being the main one, right, Yeah, they don't
want I saw the Eagles owner talked in defense of
the play for like over an hour and was like
passionate about it, and yeah, I'm sure you are. After
you you have the quarterback and the center combo that
have exploited this for the last few years, but they've
they won a Super Bowl. It's a little bit of
a boring play, but yeah, you know the argument.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
The argument I've seen from former players is like, I
guess it's a rule where defensive players can't push other
defensive players into the guy with the ball, Right, is
that is that a thing? Because I was listening to it,
I forget who it was. Somewhat talking about a former
player and he's like, it's a clear disadvantage for the
defense because the offense can push the guy with the ball,
(28:52):
but defensively you're at a disadvantage.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Because they change because remember the bush push. Back in
the day, you weren't allowed to push the guy from
behind like that. That has since changed in the NFL
as well. But like, look, the game has changed already
so much. I mean, you can't even go over the
middle without a secondary player drawing a foul, right, like
you can't hit guys the same. Pass interference has completely
(29:19):
changed the way players get play. So you know, I
am for a little bit of the brutality and physicalness
of football staying in the game, and I think the
push push push is some of the Peanut is up next?
Speaker 1 (29:30):
What's up, Peanut?
Speaker 3 (29:32):
What's up?
Speaker 4 (29:32):
Guys? Hey man, Billy?
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Did he named your car Bessie?
Speaker 1 (29:39):
My old car? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:40):
That was my first car, my ninety nine Honda Civic
we bought for eight hundred dollars. That car, when the
AC wasn't working, was named Bessie.
Speaker 4 (29:47):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
But my car now is named Leah Shannon. Oh god,
we're really I do not name my cars. Yeah, you
gotta name your car, Peanut, save me here, tell me
you do not name your car?
Speaker 3 (29:58):
Well, ironically, I had eighty four Honda Civic was my
first car, and it was a little brown, little brown car,
and they called it the Peanut.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
That's right, that's right, pet you name your cars.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
So when my friends actually named it, and then when
I when the car blew up, I didn't put oh.
And and I was in high school and the other buddy said,
now you peanut now, and I was like, hh, it'll
never lasted here thirty five years later, here.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
I am peanut. Oh.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
So that's how we got the origin of peanut by
naming your car. Okay, all right, anything else?
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Yeah, that's it. Man, the heck of a game last night.
But uh, I'm glad. I'm glad he didn't after that choke.
I'm glad they still pulled it out.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Yeah, all right, Peanut, yet me the call? So you're
pulling for the Pacers, you're Billy, well, because I'm kind
of torn here, like I don't know, like I kind
of want the Knicks to get to the finals. But
then the.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
NBA is better when the Knicks are in. Yeah, good, right,
Like the the the environment in the garden has been
on some Ben Stiller next to Timothy Chalomey last night.
Tracy Morgan there coach cal was court sided for the
game last night. I think Indiana has the better team,
but you know, part of my heart is rooting for
the next Let's go to Casey Hey, Casey.
Speaker 5 (31:16):
Hey, good morning, tailors morning.
Speaker 6 (31:18):
So it's toutmes like this. And I really wish our
old buddy Harvey was alive because I got a problem.
I have cicadas everywhere. They are taking over at my house,
they are, and it's weird because there's none of either
of my parents house. I'm in my government county, but
I'm out in Jeffersonville a little bit and they are everywhere.
So I was wondering, is there anything maybe our viewers
(31:40):
know that we can or you guys might know that
I can plant, like because I know if you plant
basil and lavender, it keeps mosquitoes away. And so I
was wondering if there's anything like that besides pesticides, because
I don't even know how I'm gonna sit outside this summer.
I mean, they're like torpedo and in my hair and
you don't know, I have really long hair and it's
just bite and they're so crunchy and they're growth and
(32:04):
they have big red eyes and I'm scared. So if
anybody could.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Help me out, yeah, Okay, thank you. Thanks, call Casey,
appreciate it. I saw my first cicada yesterday. I don't
know what you're supposed to do. I think Harvey would
probably say, you got to catch them, roll them over
on their back, and put some rosemary oil in their
belly button, and that might get rid of them. But
I don't know how you would do it other than
just I don't know bug spray. What's your Do you
have a solution? I don't you know.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
I'm not the pest control guy or very handy, but
a quick Google search would tell you need to wrap
your trees.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Shanning.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Using netting, burr lap, or similar materials to wrap the
trunks of your trees can prevent young cicadas from climbing
up and laying eggs. So whether you're wrapping tree trunks,
covering trees and shrubs, or maybe you hose down a
tree a cicadas are clumsy flyers, so if you use
a strong spray of water to knock them off trees,
it makes them harder to return.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
You know, Harvey would be perfect for this because he'd
have the ointment or whatever we needed to be able
to get rid of them. But this is something that
only happens during a certain time period, right, Like it's
every like seven or ten years.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
I don't know exactly, it's ever so many, every every
maybe seven years. I'm not sure.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Well I remember because we moved to Kentucky from Florida
and that was the year that they came out. So
we thought we were in like the middle of where
are we? Like, what are these bugs that are everywhere?
Speaker 1 (33:25):
They then they shed their shells and then there are
shells are everywhere.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Shed the shells, and I mean they're a good snack
for a lot of different animals. But yeah, something that
only comes every so often.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
I'm sure We'll get plenty of answers on the text line,
or you can tweet us at Billy our Sports at
Shannon the Dude. We'll take a break and come right
back for our final segment. It is the KSR pre Show.
Final segments of the KSR pre Show. A reminder. Coming

lot of great things. So we will be at the
Bell Theater in Pineville, will be outdoors if it's nice weather.
That's one fourteen West Kentucky Avenue in Pineville, So please
join us.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
I was kind of looking into like what's going on
there at the Mountain Laurel Festival and everything, and for
whatever reason, you know, my mind started wandering off to
I was like, Laurel, why does that ring a bell?
Do you remember the debate that we had? Was it
like six seven years ago? Laurel versus Yanni? Do you
remember that? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (34:54):
It was was at audio and if you if you
listen to it, you could almost hear both at the
same time.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Okay, So yeah, and I remember that, and I'm going, okay,
I remember I could like alternate between like sometimes I
could hear Yanni sometimes I could hear Laurel. So I
went back and I listened to it last night, and
I could only hear Laurel. I couldn't hear Yanni anymore?
Did you dig it up for us? Can? I? Can
(35:19):
you play it for me? Because I'm I can't. Yeah?
So all right, everybody listening, tell me? Do you hear
Yanni or Laurel? You ready?
Speaker 4 (35:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Ready? Laurel, Laurel, Laurel, Laurel.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I don't know how anybody hears Yanny. All I hear
is Laurel. I only hear Laurel. How could you hear
Yanni from that?
Speaker 1 (35:42):
I'm telling you?
Speaker 3 (35:42):
Man?
Speaker 1 (35:42):
I So I look, I was Then I started getting
really like intrigued, like how was it that I used
to be able to hear Yanni? But now I can't.
Apparently when you're younger you can hear Yanni. If you're older, no,
you're hearing Laurel.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
No, this is not what's gonna So I believe that
I'm finally old that I'm hearing Laurel.
Speaker 1 (36:00):
I think what has happened, Billy, is as you've gotten
older and as I've gotten older, we can't hear Yanni anymore.
It's only Laurel. Play it again, Laurel, Laurel, Laurel. I
can't hear Yanni. I can't hear it. I can't Laurel Laurel. Yeah,
I don't know, And I'm telling you though I used
(36:24):
to be able to hear both of them. Now I
can only hear Laurel.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Well, wasn't there another thing? It was like, what color
is this dress? It was the red redder or no,
it was the blue or gold dress. It was like
white and gold or blue and black. And it's I
don't know. Is that was that telling me I'm old too, Shad?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Is that I'm just telling you I used to be
able to hear it, and now I don't know. Like
for those of you listening, send us on Twitter at
Shannon the Dude, at Billy or sports, or on the
text line do you hear Yanni or Laurel?
Speaker 2 (36:54):
A bunch of college kids telling me they hear Yanni.
I'm gonna get a little angry.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
That's what we need. We need your age and which
one you hear so we can prove that this is
like legit. Like if you're older, you only hear Laurel.
If you're younger, you can hear Yanni. The text line
is five O two two six five six six five six.
Let's go to Boudet. What's up Boudet? Did you hear
Yanni or Laurel? When I played that Buddet.
Speaker 4 (37:15):

All right, perfect boo day, Thanks for that. We appreciate all.
Didn't know we were gonna get serenaded this morning, Billy.
Speaker 2 (40:28):
Does that happen to you, Shannon? Do you wake up
in a cold sweat with song lyrics in your mind?
Speaker 3 (40:32):
You know what? Like?
Speaker 1 (40:33):
I actually have had songs in my head when I've
woken up, and I'm like, what is this song? And
I go, that's an original song? And I get to
a guitar and write it down.
Speaker 2 (40:39):
So I just like how he said he didn't write it,
and then when we asked, he said it we wrote itself.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
Yeah. Did you like Denzel Aberdeen refusing to do the
gator chomp when the Florida team visited the White House.
I did.
Speaker 2 (40:50):
I would have been fine of even if he did it,

Me, Shannon. So I throw on.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
The flashers, get out, and you know, look at the
car and it's a college kid and he's panicking, and
you know, I'm so sorry. I just rolled it, you know,
didn't hit the brake. So sorry, h buckle up, put
your phone down.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
So I look at the I look at my uh
look at my bumper in the back, and uh, Shannon,
there's no damage. So I just say, hey, come on,
get out. No cell phone video filming in somebody's face.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Oh oh my neck. Oh I know, I gotta call TJ.
He'll make you pay.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
So yeah, there's like one of two ways you can
handle that situation, right. You can you can continue to
hold up traffic. You could get his insurance provider, right,
get the phone numbers, license plates, Shannon, and I just said, hey,
there's no damage, get at here, okay, Yeah, all.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Right, Well I'm glad that everybody's okay, and and the
car is okay. Not even a scratch, No, not even
a scratch. Car was fine.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
I didn't need to make a big deal out of it, Shannon,
Old Bessie's fine. So, uh, you know, that was a
little bit of an eventful part of this morning. And
then I get into the the iHeart Studios here in
Lexington and we have a new gift, Shannon. The Plinko
board has been purchased for the Lexing Tid Studios.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Plinko like you mean, like the big tall Plinko where
you gotta climb the stairs to get to the top
of it.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Like the price is right. Yeah, here's the thing. It's
not as big as those photos. Uh you know what
we thought when when we saw the Costco photos. But
how big is it? It's a it's not big at all.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Really. It's like when I need a ladder to get
up there to drop. No ladder needed.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
It's it's you know, about as tall as this Twinkies
box I got over here in the corner uh. But
Kathy has made it an initiative to put a Plinko
board in every office here in the region. So when
sales makes a big sale, they can possibly get a
price shit and there's gonna be prizes at the bottom
of it. And every time somebody brings in a new
business they can go on the plink Coo board.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Do you like the the initiative? I do. I do,
But I'm also seeing, like I was thinking when you
said Plinko board, I was like, oh, I know why
we have a Plinko board. It's to take out on
remote so that we can play with our listeners plinko
and if you win, you get like a you know,
a T shirt or something like that. So you know,
tomorrow I'm going to be out after we do our
Mountain Laurel KSR thing. I got to go to Sugar
(03:38):
Days and I don't know if you know what that is.
It's in Lexington. No, I've not I know what Sugar Days.
So Sugar Days is it's going on at the Kentucky
Horse Park. It's all tech arena, but it's going on
all weekend long and it's this thing where it's kind
of catered to guys a little bit like they got
the man Cave. They got like bourbon tastings and hand
rolled cigars, and you know, all the things that guys
(03:58):
like knives and fishing equipment and all that type of stuff. Okay,
and I think the Harley Davidson girls are going to
be there, so they got me broadcasting out there from
two till four tomorrow. But they've also got things for
the women too, So they've got it says it says
blue light and red light therapy. I have no idea
what that means. Do you know the difference between blue
and red light therapy? I don't know the difference.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I did do some red light therapy when I was
going through rehab for my back a few years ago,
so I'm a little familiar with it.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Shannon, Okay, all right, so what's the difference between blue
and red?
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I don't know. I was gonna ask you what's blue
light therapy? Regardless they're gonna have that going on out
there tomorrow with this double Q remote that I'm going
to be at. I was going to ask you, Billy,
if you you know you got to give me some
T shirts from the leg teachery for you buddy, ye,
would you mind throwing that plink O game in the
van too? That way I could take that to the
remote and play Plinko with the listeners.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
You think, well, if you're willing to build it, maybe
I see if I can get permission to take it.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
But no, no, no, no, no, just just just we'll ask for
permission after with.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
The fact, well you just want me to take it,
She said, yes, that these can be used for remotes
in the future if we don't want to do any
giveaways and things like that. So I don't think it
would be that out of the ordinary. But do you
want me to bring it so you can build it
or do you want me to wait.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Until say build it? You say, it's not that big
first of all, So I mean I'm assuming it's like
two pieces you clunk together and you dropped the little
plank go board and there you go. If it's only
a few feet tall, then.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
So she asked me if I had a screwdriver, and
I said, no, I don't carry one of those around.
Do you think most men have a screwdriver on them
at all times?
Speaker 1 (05:34):
No? No, no, okay, if it's anything more than you know,
I don't like assembly. We've already talked about this. It
took me a week to put together a bed, all right,
So like peace and love, Peace and love, do not
give me anything to a symbol. I am not Bob
the Builder. I am terrible at building things if it's
like more than two or three pieces, So you know,
don't give me three pieces of wood and tell me to,
(05:56):
you know, hammer together a triangle. It's not going to happen.
I just can't do it.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Well, I'm just excited that, you know, maybe you can
live out your dream as a game show host with
these plink Go boards. That's what I want to get
it throughout the region. Yes, I can't wait to get
one in Louisville. Oh well, it sounds like it's coming.
So sales team, a.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Little watch out, a little bit of false advertising, don't
you think on the Plinko thing, because it shows the
full length Plinko board and then you get it and
it's two foot tall.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Well, the photo we got really did do us dirty, Shannon.
We thought it was you're gonna have to get on
a ladder to get up on that thing, but they
decided to take that photo from the ground. And that's
why I guess it was such a distorted image, but
it's it's much smaller than you think. But maybe you'll
see if I can snag it before I get out
of here.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
So coming up on KSR today, we will hear the
recorded interview that Mark Pope did with Matt and looking
forward to hearing that. I have not heard it yet,
so I'll be hearing it for the first time, just
like all of you. Billy, I think you had to
do some editing and some chopping and slicing and dicing
of the yeah, the so I'm assuming that you've at
least heard some of that. I don't want you to
(07:03):
spoil the broth, But are you as excited about it
as I am after hearing it?
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Well, I mean, I guess not as excited as you
are because I've already heard it. But every time I
hear that guy speak, I can't help but get excited
for the next season, right, And you know, Mario's already
released at least one clip about it, and you know
his excitement and wanting to play the best teams and
the biggest arenas, and even Mario shared behind the scenes
clip where you know, Mark was talking about the power
(07:30):
of radio and community and saw that connection points and
I thought that was a really sweet moment, and I'm
sure Matt really appreciated that. But you know, Pope was
able to get us about, you know, forty two minutes
of his time, and you know, it was it was
a nice change of pace that a commercial break didn't
mean the man had to get up and walk away,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Like it was they were able to have a long.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Form kind of sit down and talk about some good
things and also some insight into you know, how he's
constructed this roster, Shan, And so I'm excited for every
ready to get to hear that. We'll start that maybe
a little after ten forty five, Shannon, Is that right?
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Yeah, yeah, we'll do that. It's a five segment interviews.
So what we're going to do is, you know, play
it on the show as much as we can, and
then you know, if you want to go back on podcast.
I think we're going to have it just in its entirety,
completely uninterrupted, not you know, clunk together, because if you're
going to be listening like hour one an hour two,
the first part of the interview is going to be
at the end of hour one, if this makes any
(08:26):
sense what I'm saying to you, Yes, but I believe
we're going to take it all together in one piece
and post that on the podcast feed as well later
on if you want to listen that way so it
doesn't sound clunky, right, that's right.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
The full podcast will be available right after the show.
He calls out Ryan Lemon at one point. That's about
all I'm going to write.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Calls out Ryan. Ryan's very pro pope. He's not you know,
he doesn't ever say anything negative. Well maybe for a
good reason. Okay, I'll be interested in hearing what that
what that has to do with? Uh? Speaking of Kentucky basketball,
yesterday Billy was announced that they've get another prese You know,
they were already scheduled to play Perdue on October twenty
fourth at Rup. Another game was thrown onto the preseason schedule.
(09:07):
You get Georgetown. I know we're not talking about Georgetown Kentucky.
We're talking about the Hoyas, Billy, Georgetown Hoyas coming to
Roup Arena on October thirtieth. Do you like this new
preseason schedule? We're playing teams that I think more people
care about. Not to say that, you know, we don't
care about our Kentucky schools, but it's going to be
I think more of a competitive game when you get
(09:29):
Georgetown to Perdue come into rupp Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
I think it goes back to Mark wanting to play
the biggest and best teams. And when the rule changes
where you can play exhibition games against Division one opponents,
why not play against really good teams, right, test your
team early instead of you know, the poop states, Shannon,
You're going to be a battle tested against teams like
Perdue and Georgetown. So I'm not sure how good Georgetown's
(09:52):
going to be this next year. I know Purdue has
been a staple for the last decade or so, so
you got to think those guys will learn and get
valuable experience early on in the year. So I think
Mark is approaching this the right way. And you know,
the two teams haven't met since what nineteen eighty four,
and there were some weird things that happened in that game, Shanon,
I don't know if you know the history about it,
(10:12):
but there's some conspiracy theories and.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Well, no, what sorts of things I don't know about this.
What was the conspiracy theory? Well, Kentucky lost fifty three
to forty. Oh yeah, conspiracy theory. Kentucky loss has got
to be a conspiracy.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Well, hold on, in the second half, Kentucky had a
historically bad shooting. They went three of thirty three in
that second half. Now to add to this, before the
Georgetown in Kentucky game, it was Houston versus Virginia, and
when Houston won, they started a habit of getting on
top of the goal and standing on the back of
the goal and in the rim. And so after that,
(10:46):
the only it was only on one end of the court. Yeah,
but some Kentucky fans at the time theorized that the
goal at Kentucky shot towards in the second half was
the goal that Houston players had stood on in the
previous game. I guess Georgetown didn't shoot that great going
to that goal either. So there's a little history between
Georgetown and Kentucky dating all the way back to I
(11:07):
guess eighty four, and then in nineteen eighty five, Georgetown
loses the National Championship game in rupp Arena to Villanova.
So I mean, there's a little history with Georgetown and Lexington.
But you know, like I said, you're not playing these
d two D three schools anymore, you're testing yourself early
on in the year, and I think that's a great
opportunity for this team.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
So I want to go back to the conspiracy here.
So they just allowed another team to just stand up
on top of the realm, on top of the goal.
That's right, there's no rules there, just go up there
and just stand. I mean, did nobody think that maybe
that could possibly bend the rim and affect the shooting
of the next game. I guess they didn't think that.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
This was the nineteen eighty four final four semi final
yeap and Houston decided they wanted to celebrate by standing
on rims.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Shannon, Now, you know, every.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Time there's a little bit of a two heart of
a dunk, we've got to stop play to make sure
it's level.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
And they don't make those realms I'm sure you know,
like they did back there. Like right now, they've got,
you know, much better rims than they did forty years ago.
So maybe there is something to that. Now, you know,
three of thirty three. You got to find some answers,
right Yeah, Now I need to go back and watch, like,
how exactly did that happen? I think I'm down with
the conspiracy. I think I agree. So maybe when they
(12:19):
come to upp Arena, we should just bend their room
in the second half they just stand on their end
during halftime or some well, we'll make sure, you know,
we shoot on that side first and then you know,
maybe at halftime we'll make some adjustments.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
You know, halftime shows they've gotten more extravagant as the
years have gone on.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
We know Red Panda. Yeah, in my favorite time, sometimes.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
They'll they'll set up a trampoline and these guys will
fly through the air and throwing the ball backwards so
the next guy can get it.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
So, yeah, maybe just bend the room a little bit.
Eight five nine, two eighth twenty two eighty seven At
Shannon the Dude at Billy R. Sports, Frank writes in
and says, oh, I'm hearing that Billy R Sports will
be in the hospital after the show for a hit
and run. That's what he got out of that first
first part of the segment.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Yeah, I guess I could have done the hole, you know,
my back, my shoulder, you know, I got.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Rear ended a few years ago. But you know, in
a jeep wrangler, I'm not going to say that a
Jeep Wrangler is indestructible. It's not like it can be.
It can be damaged, but it's tough. And this person
that rear inted me, I mean it barely put a
scratch on my Jeep, but the front of their car
looked like a smashed coke can. Ooh, it was like boo.
(13:26):
And they hit me maybe going I mean maybe five
miles an hour and I got a little I got
a little jolt out of it. You know, it may
have moved me a couple of inches, but the damage
on the Jeep was nothing that you got your rubber
duckies out as you assessed the damage, and their car
looked like it just did you know, just went ninety
miles an hour into a brick wall.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Well, you know, that's kind of the benefit of having
a Dodge charger too. It's a little bit of a
heavier car, you know, you know, not in the punch
buggy and getting knocked back. But you know, this person
maybe hit me going one two miles per hour, and
I've had the inverse happened. You know, I've I've gotten
into a bad rear in collision where I've had to
get TJ.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
To make them pay, Shannon. So this time it was
you just go on, yep, go on, get just another
reason for a billy to say, oh, my back hurts,
I can't get in the wrestling ring with Shannam the dude.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
That's right, let me back up our workout another exactly,
That's what I'm hearing.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
All right, we'll take your calls. Coming up next. It
is the KSR pre Show. All right, welcome back. It
is the KSR pre Show. The podcast listeners don't get this.
They don't get the Dave Matthew's van crash into me music,
crash into me.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
That's a guy that will probably won't wear shoes on stage, Shannon.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
We were just talking about that during the break. Oh yeah,
you you were asking me, is it acceptable for people
to go work out the gym and not have their
shoes on? And I told it is. It doesn't bother me,
Like I'm if I'm at the gym, man, I'm doing
my own thing, like I'm not. I'm not focused on
anybody else. I'm going in there doing my im wala.
The guy that trained Julius Randall into Marcus Cousins. He
(14:59):
cousins at you the whole time too.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Yeah, I know you paused the video so you can
get a break and then you can catch your breath.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
You say you're working out with no shoes, Well, I
there's some lifts that you don't want running shoes on,
and so you want, you know, your flat feet.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
And I'm fine with people taking their shoes off, but
keep your socks on, folks.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
I don't want to see your dogs. And I think
that's are people working out at your gym with no Yeah,
sure they are. And so I'm not going to be
one of those people, Shannon. I'm not Dave Matthews in
the band. Keep your dogs locked up? Can I? I
hesitate to even share this with you, but I was
something that happened to be at the gym yesterday. Okay,
(15:37):
so it's a little it's a little gross. Well okay,
let me just back up. First of all, it's amazing
how dependent we are on electricity. Would you agree with that? Oh, Like,
when electricity goes out, you can't do anything. So I'm
sitting there last night at the house and it's not
storming or anything. It is it is really windy though,
and boom, electric goes out. So I'm like, all right,
(16:00):
and when we look at you know, the LG and anything,
and it says like it's going to be another two
or three hours before the electric comes back on. So I'm like,
all right, what am I gonna do? All right, let's
just go to the gym, right, Let's go to the gym.
Maybe they'll have power there. I go up there and
only part of the gym has electric, like I guess
maybe the running off a generator. Okay, so stay with
me here. Like the treadmills and stuff are working in
(16:20):
the back room like where I work out in has lights,
so I can work out there. It's all good. But
before I get going to my workout, I'm like, all right,
I need to go. You know, nature's calling. I need
to go. I need to go pee real quick, right
before I get going into my workout, because once I
get locked in, you know, I'm not I can't stop.
So in the restroom, it's one of the parts of
the building that has no lights. So I walk in
(16:43):
and I'm like completely pitch dark, and I not completely.
I can see a little bit, right, but you know,
there's a couple of people at the yurinal, so I
have to go to the stall to do my business.
And as I'm standing there in the dark, all of
a sudden I hear and I realized at that moment
(17:03):
what had happened. My ear pod and my left ear
falls out and straight into the toilet. So now I
got a dilemma because these are very expensive ear pods.
Not to mention, they're not even my EarPods. I was
borrowing Sarah's EarPods.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Oh no, oh, no, Sarah AirPods dropped into the toilet.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Yeah, and these are, like I said, these are the
really good ones. So now I've got a dilemma. I'm
in the dark, an ear pod has just fallen out
of my ear into the toilet that is not clean,
and I don't know what to do.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
So, Billy, what do you think I did? I think
you you pull a Michael Reagan on Lingo. You know,
reach yourself in there and get yourself a couple of balls.
You know, you better reach into the toilet and get
yourself that AirPod.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
What do you mean You're not gonna leave it in there?
Speaker 4 (17:56):
Right?
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I could have flushed it. I could have been like,
go what what AirPods? I don't know what you're talking about.
You must have lost them somewhere. So what do I do?
I think long and hard about it, think about the
consequences of not getting it, and then I go elbow deep. Oh,
or at least risk deep. Go on there, I reach
in there and grab it, take it over to the sink,
put a little soap on it, wash it off. You
(18:19):
do it the air hold on, give a little shake,
and then put it right back in my ear gulage. Bro, Shannon, Bro,
why not? If I don't have the left ear in
the right ear won't work, and then I can't do
my workout. How you can? I can't do. No, those
ear pods are connected. If you don't have the left
ear in the right one won't work.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
But you can put it back in the case and
the one will work on its own. Did you not
have the case with you?
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Yeah? I didn't know that. Oh yeah, you put one
in the case. The other one works fine.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
You put an air pod that was just dropped in
a urine filled toilet in your ear less than a
minute later.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
That's foul, Bro, I cleaned it off. You're gonna get
an ear infection or something.
Speaker 4 (19:02):
No.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I cleaned it out. I disinfected it. It went through
the whole process of soap and water. Oh my gosh, No,
it's it's good. I'm fine, though. I can hear it
even better this morning. I think I think I might
have found a natural cure. I can't.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
You know, I don't think I've ever had the situation
where a cell phone or something's been dropped into the
toilet that you've already done some business into.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
So so, you know, I'm working out and everybody's watching.
You know, they're walking by, and they have no idea
that those ear pads were just in the toilet two
minutes ago. Hey, you got urine ears. Nobody has any idea.
That's right. Wow, yep, that's getting your dogs out at
the gym. Far she's concerned. Nothing's you haven't told her. Stop, Sarah,
(19:46):
Please tell her, Hey, you know, that's what happened. And
now you know what she would probably say, Now they're yours,
you can just have them, That's what she probably would say.
So you maybe just got yourself a new pair of
ear I should tell her. Uh, here's what I'm gonna

They got a man cave? Is I guess I'm gonna
have to get a map.

pictures of our miniatures. Make sure there's nothing that shouldn't
be there.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Sugar Days. Yeah, that's gonna be a lot of fun.
So if you can make it out there this weekend.

phone calls here on the KSR Pre Show. All right,
welcome back. It is the KSR Pre Show eight five
to nine, two eighth, twenty two eighty seven. Shannon the Dude,
Billy Relige, taking your phone calls. We'll go back to
the line in just a minute. Gotta talk though, first, Billy,
(22:44):
about that game last night. Did you stay up and
watch the Pacers and Knicks? Of course, what a game
that was, And again the Pacers came back again. They've
already done this twice in the other series where they
were down seven with a minute to go last night,
I mean they were down what was it fourteen, I
think with two and a half minutes to go. Yeah,
and I'm like, this game's over. And somehow they came
(23:06):
back and Aaron Nesmith, former Candy player, just put the
pasers on his back. Man could not miss. I think
he scored was it nineteen points in the fourth quarter?
Twenty points in the fourth quarter. It comes down to
a miss free throw by Karl Anthony Towns and then
Halliburton drives down, looks like he's gonna go in for
(23:28):
like a you know, a short jumper, but then goes
backwards and at that moment, I'm like that's a bad decision.
Goes back for a three to try to end the game,
shoots the shot, goes off the rim, bounces five six
feet in the air, and goes right back through and
it looks like in that moment that the Pacers had
just beaten the Knicks. Haliburton does the choking sign with
(23:51):
you know, the Reggie Miller choke son that he did
what twenty some years ago, and it looks like it's over.
They go back and review it. Toe was on the
line going to overtime, and it didn't matter because the
Pacers end up winning the game anyway. But first of all,
I mean, for the Pacers to outscore the Knicks, bye,
what was it like? I think it was like twenty
to six or something like that in the last two
(24:12):
and a half minutes. Just to come back was crazy.
And then that shot Halliburton shot it looks like it
was a miss, bounces off the rim, go straight up
and then right back down. It was a crazy ending
to the regulation of the game.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
And I'm screaming at Halliburton to pass the ball to
Nie smith Man like he is on fire, Get him
the ball. And I've never seen somebody dribble in like
that and then dribble backwards. He looks at the clock
on the opposite end of the court to see how
much time he's got left. And then that turnaround shot
Kawhi Leonard Esk if you remember his game winner that
bounced high up like that in the playoffs. It may
(24:46):
have been the best NBA game that I've seen since
maybe the block by Lebron James against the Golden State
Warriors for the NBA Finals. I mean, I don't want
to be a prisoner of the moment. But that was unreal, Shannon.
Not only did it get up to maybe even sixteen
points in the fourth quarter after that early run, they
were still up seven with like fifty seconds left. Yeah,
(25:07):
I mean it was just shades of Reggie Miller. Him scoring,
was it? I mean what did he score? It was
like six points.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
And five seconds or yeah, something crazy like that.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
And then for him to do the choke Selly and
then for the game to keep going on.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
I felt so bad there. Well, I mean Halliburton he
taunted a little too soon. Yeah, but at that moment,
I'm like, all right, this game's going to overtime. If
you're the Pacers, you have to win the game after
Halliburton does the choke son right right, because I mean,
how embarrassing would it be for Halliburton to do the
you know you you just choked that game away. For
him to go Nope, not so fast, We're going to overtime,
(25:44):
and then to lose the game. He would be mocked forever,
got me, yeah saying lot forever.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Yeah, And in the Knick scored the first four points
of the overtime period, but then they and then it's
obi topping the former Nick in Madison Square Garden that
has that that double clutch dunk at the end of it.
So you're right, Karl, Anthony Town's a big miss free
throw late in that game.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
And I mean.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
If this series goes seven, Shannon, I mean, I sign
me up, you know what I mean? Like, this is
going to be maybe an all time series.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
The one thing I do not like though about the
NBA is that I'm gonna call a time out, We're
going to advance the ball. I hate that rule. Why,
what's what's wrong with that? Because you're not earning anything,
you're just calling a time out. You're getting half the
court from just calling a time out. You didn't even
have to advance the ball yourself. Like, I don't like,
we're gonna call a time out now we're gonna move
the ball to half court. No, you should have to
(26:40):
dribble the full length if that's where that you know,
after a basket, you should have to come up the
full length. I think I just don't like that rule.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
And that's in college, right, Like a timeout in college,
you've got to go the full length. There is no
advancing the ball like that. I wonder what the.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Reasoning is to try to make the game, you know,
more exciting because you can now, in theory, have a
game winner from thirty with with with one second left,
you can now have a three instead of somebody having
to you know, throw a full court shot. I would
argue that a full court you know, a three quarter
shot going down is much more exciting than advancing the
(27:13):
ball and with one second to go, somebody you know,
hits a three or a lot less likely, right sure, sure, yeah, again,
that's all part of the excitement. Though. It was good night.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
I mean, we watched Shay Gilgis Alexander when the MVP,
the first Kentucky player to ever do it, which was
surprising to me, and then you go roll right into
that great game.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
So it was. It was a great night of basketball.
Lest speaking of rules that will not be banned over
on the NFL side, Billy, the tush push, it was voted,
will not be banned or you have pro or con
toush push and football.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
I am pro tush push because I get a little
bit of a Shannon the dude take here.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
If you don't like it, stop it. Yeah, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
But at the same time, this measure only passed by
two votes. Shannon, you have to get seven five percent
of the votes from the owners to be able to
change the rule, and it only it. It did not
change only because of two votes. So, I mean there's
a lot of teams that wanted to get rid of it.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Pickers being one of them.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
They sat being the main one, right, Yeah, they don't
want I saw the Eagles owner talked in defense of
the play for like over an hour and was like
passionate about it, and yeah, I'm sure you are. After
you you have the quarterback and the center combo that
have exploited this for the last few years, but they've
they won a Super Bowl. It's a little bit of
a boring play, but yeah, you know the argument.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
The argument I've seen from former players is like, I
guess it's a rule where defensive players can't push other
defensive players into the guy with the ball, Right, is
that is that a thing? Because I was listening to it,
I forget who it was. Somewhat talking about a former
player and he's like, it's a clear disadvantage for the
defense because the offense can push the guy with the ball,
(28:52):
but defensively you're at a disadvantage.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Because they change because remember the bush push. Back in
the day, you weren't allowed to push the guy from
behind like that. That has since changed in the NFL
as well. But like, look, the game has changed already
so much. I mean, you can't even go over the
middle without a secondary player drawing a foul, right, like
you can't hit guys the same. Pass interference has completely
(29:19):
changed the way players get play. So you know, I
am for a little bit of the brutality and physicalness
of football staying in the game, and I think the
push push push is some of the Peanut is up next?
Speaker 1 (29:30):
What's up, Peanut?
Speaker 3 (29:32):
What's up?
Speaker 4 (29:32):
Guys? Hey man, Billy?
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Did he named your car Bessie?
Speaker 1 (29:39):
My old car? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:40):
That was my first car, my ninety nine Honda Civic
we bought for eight hundred dollars. That car, when the
AC wasn't working, was named Bessie.
Speaker 4 (29:47):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
But my car now is named Leah Shannon. Oh god,
we're really I do not name my cars. Yeah, you
gotta name your car, Peanut, save me here, tell me
you do not name your car?
Speaker 3 (29:58):
Well, ironically, I had eighty four Honda Civic was my
first car, and it was a little brown, little brown car,
and they called it the Peanut.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
That's right, that's right, pet you name your cars.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
So when my friends actually named it, and then when
I when the car blew up, I didn't put oh.
And and I was in high school and the other buddy said,
now you peanut now, and I was like, hh, it'll
never lasted here thirty five years later, here.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
I am peanut. Oh.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
So that's how we got the origin of peanut by
naming your car. Okay, all right, anything else?
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Yeah, that's it. Man, the heck of a game last night.
But uh, I'm glad. I'm glad he didn't after that choke.
I'm glad they still pulled it out.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Yeah, all right, Peanut, yet me the call? So you're
pulling for the Pacers, you're Billy, well, because I'm kind
of torn here, like I don't know, like I kind
of want the Knicks to get to the finals. But
then the.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
NBA is better when the Knicks are in. Yeah, good, right,
Like the the the environment in the garden has been
on some Ben Stiller next to Timothy Chalomey last night.
Tracy Morgan there coach cal was court sided for the
game last night. I think Indiana has the better team,
but you know, part of my heart is rooting for
the next Let's go to Casey Hey, Casey.
Speaker 5 (31:16):
Hey, good morning, tailors morning.
Speaker 6 (31:18):
So it's toutmes like this. And I really wish our
old buddy Harvey was alive because I got a problem.
I have cicadas everywhere. They are taking over at my house,
they are, and it's weird because there's none of either
of my parents house. I'm in my government county, but
I'm out in Jeffersonville a little bit and they are everywhere.
So I was wondering, is there anything maybe our viewers
(31:40):
know that we can or you guys might know that
I can plant, like because I know if you plant
basil and lavender, it keeps mosquitoes away. And so I
was wondering if there's anything like that besides pesticides, because
I don't even know how I'm gonna sit outside this summer.
I mean, they're like torpedo and in my hair and
you don't know, I have really long hair and it's
just bite and they're so crunchy and they're growth and
(32:04):
they have big red eyes and I'm scared. So if
anybody could.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Help me out, yeah, Okay, thank you. Thanks, call Casey,
appreciate it. I saw my first cicada yesterday. I don't
know what you're supposed to do. I think Harvey would
probably say, you got to catch them, roll them over
on their back, and put some rosemary oil in their
belly button, and that might get rid of them. But
I don't know how you would do it other than
just I don't know bug spray. What's your Do you
have a solution? I don't you know.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
I'm not the pest control guy or very handy, but
a quick Google search would tell you need to wrap
your trees.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Shanning.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Using netting, burr lap, or similar materials to wrap the
trunks of your trees can prevent young cicadas from climbing
up and laying eggs. So whether you're wrapping tree trunks,
covering trees and shrubs, or maybe you hose down a
tree a cicadas are clumsy flyers, so if you use
a strong spray of water to knock them off trees,
it makes them harder to return.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
You know, Harvey would be perfect for this because he'd
have the ointment or whatever we needed to be able
to get rid of them. But this is something that
only happens during a certain time period, right, Like it's
every like seven or ten years.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
I don't know exactly, it's ever so many, every every
maybe seven years. I'm not sure.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Well I remember because we moved to Kentucky from Florida
and that was the year that they came out. So
we thought we were in like the middle of where
are we? Like, what are these bugs that are everywhere?
Speaker 1 (33:25):
They then they shed their shells and then there are
shells are everywhere.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Shed the shells, and I mean they're a good snack
for a lot of different animals. But yeah, something that
only comes every so often.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
I'm sure We'll get plenty of answers on the text line,
or you can tweet us at Billy our Sports at
Shannon the Dude. We'll take a break and come right
back for our final segment. It is the KSR pre Show.

lot of great things. So we will be at the
Bell Theater in Pineville, will be outdoors if it's nice weather.
That's one fourteen West Kentucky Avenue in Pineville, So please
join us.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
I was kind of looking into like what's going on
there at the Mountain Laurel Festival and everything, and for
whatever reason, you know, my mind started wandering off to
I was like, Laurel, why does that ring a bell?
Do you remember the debate that we had? Was it
like six seven years ago? Laurel versus Yanni? Do you
remember that? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (34:54):
It was was at audio and if you if you
listen to it, you could almost hear both at the
same time.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Okay, So yeah, and I remember that, and I'm going, okay,
I remember I could like alternate between like sometimes I
could hear Yanni sometimes I could hear Laurel. So I
went back and I listened to it last night, and
I could only hear Laurel. I couldn't hear Yanni anymore?
Did you dig it up for us? Can? I? Can
(35:19):
you play it for me? Because I'm I can't. Yeah?
So all right, everybody listening, tell me? Do you hear
Yanni or Laurel? You ready?
Speaker 4 (35:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Ready? Laurel, Laurel, Laurel, Laurel.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I don't know how anybody hears Yanny. All I hear
is Laurel. I only hear Laurel. How could you hear
Yanni from that?
Speaker 1 (35:42):
I'm telling you?
Speaker 3 (35:42):
Man?
Speaker 1 (35:42):
I So I look, I was Then I started getting
really like intrigued, like how was it that I used
to be able to hear Yanni? But now I can't.
Apparently when you're younger you can hear Yanni. If you're older, no,
you're hearing Laurel.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
No, this is not what's gonna So I believe that
I'm finally old that I'm hearing Laurel.
Speaker 1 (36:00):
I think what has happened, Billy, is as you've gotten
older and as I've gotten older, we can't hear Yanni anymore.
It's only Laurel. Play it again, Laurel, Laurel, Laurel. I
can't hear Yanni. I can't hear it. I can't Laurel Laurel. Yeah,
I don't know, And I'm telling you though I used
(36:24):
to be able to hear both of them. Now I
can only hear Laurel.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Well, wasn't there another thing? It was like, what color
is this dress? It was the red redder or no,
it was the blue or gold dress. It was like
white and gold or blue and black. And it's I
don't know. Is that was that telling me I'm old too, Shad?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Is that I'm just telling you I used to be
able to hear it, and now I don't know. Like
for those of you listening, send us on Twitter at
Shannon the Dude, at Billy or sports, or on the
text line do you hear Yanni or Laurel?
Speaker 2 (36:54):
A bunch of college kids telling me they hear Yanni.
I'm gonna get a little angry.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
That's what we need. We need your age and which
one you hear so we can prove that this is
like legit. Like if you're older, you only hear Laurel.
If you're younger, you can hear Yanni. The text line
is five O two two six five six six five six.
Let's go to Boudet. What's up Boudet? Did you hear
Yanni or Laurel? When I played that Buddet.

Didn't know we were gonna get serenaded this morning, Billy.

Speaker 3 (40:32):
You know what? Like?
Speaker 1 (40:33):
I actually have had songs in my head when I've
woken up, and I'm like, what is this song? And
I go, that's an original song? And I get to
a guitar and write it down.
Speaker 2 (40:39):
So I just like how he said he didn't write it,

Yeah. Did you like Denzel Aberdeen refusing to do the
gator chomp when the Florida team visited the White House.
