Our number two Kentucky Sports Radio 859-280-2287. I need to sometimes, Shannon, not look at the, at the, at the news during the break. Why is it just throwing your mood? It just throws my. Like I looked. I don't even want to read it. What Trump posted about Rob Reiner getting killed. Yeah. No, about him. It's like the most hateful thing ever. The dude got murdered. Yeah. Like I expect, I expect random people on the Internet to be hateful. But you're the president. Like you're the president of the United States. I didn't see what he said. But yeah, if you can't say something nice. How many times you heard me say if you can't say something nice when somebody dies, then don't say anything at all. Right. Yeah. And if you're the president, like I'm not even going to read it. I just, I don't care if that makes people mad. If you read that and you think that's an okay thing to write when somebody gets murdered, like, you're just. That's disgusting. All right, I'll shut up. I didn't mean to get off on that. Anyway, we're doing trivia Wednesday night. Nice KS bar. Glad you got that out. Trump trivia. Right. We're not doing. Okay. Can I ask you a question? When you all go to your parents house, what do they. What do they have the thermostat on? I never look, but I feel like it's always hot. Thank you. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what it is. 78 degrees. 78. It was, I was suffocating. What do you have yours on some 71. Mine's on 68. Yeah, I walked. I mean I was just old people. You can't though. I can't really say anything. Like it's my. First of all, it's their house, you know, I want them to be comfortable. But like what is the age that parents just turn the thermostat up? Because there is an age. There is an age. I remember the same thing with my grandparents house. I think it's like retirement. They just decide we're cranking it up as high as we can all day. Yeah, yeah. And you get. It's just like, here we go. Yep. Turn it on. If my house is ever 78, it's on fire. Like I'm calling somebody when it gets to 72. It was time to go to bed. It was like, just take everything. Like I just covers. Who needs them? Right? Like it's just now. Do you say anything? The good thing is you just, you just do it. I mean, I give my mom a hard time about it. Yeah. But I'm not, you know, I mean Larry, he's. He's. He's sick and I need. And I want him to be comfortable, but I'm just like. And I'm like, mom, do you think this is a little bit hot? And she's like, no, this is what we leave it at. And I'm like, well, today colder it gets outside the higher they turn it up. As if that's going to change. Shannon. What? It is outside, right? And. But today it's so cold. I mean, you could just take a lap around the house then come back in. I think you'd be okay. It was like 8 degrees this morning when I woke up. I know, but I think I'd rather go in a bedroom, close the door and open the window, crack a window, let the cold air in and they're both like they're both undercovers. Heated blankets, sweaters, electric blankets. It's like my good. So anyway. 859-280-2287 the volleyball team wins. Going to the final four. We did it. Great victory. Domination. Ran through Cal Poly last week and then ran through Creighton. Game was like match was never close and then we got some good new Texas gets beat and then Nebraska loses their first home game in three and a half years. And I just want to say the fourth and fifth set of that match was some of the most entertaining sports. If you did not see it. The fourth set, which Nebraska won was amazing. Like you know how they go to 25 but you have to win by two. It was like 37, 35. They just kept going back and forth and back and forth and then again I thought well once Nebraska won they'll win the fifth set. But they didn't. So the team, two teams had the best chance of beating us. Nebraska and Texas drew both out of the of the final four. We are the high seated team at the final four. Yeah. As exciting as winning on Saturday was the results of the other matches was just as exciting. Sunday knocked out the two, the two seeds ahead of Kentucky. Now they're the top seed. They're the favorite. Just got to finish the job. I don't love just seeing Wisconsin in the final four. That triggers memories. Maybe this is redemption for other sports. I don't think Sam Deckers playing. We play Wisconsin and then Pitt who we also we lost to earlier this year. Right. So Pitt is on the other side. That's one of the two teams that beat us. They play A and M who we've beaten earlier this year. Getting Texas out of there was huge. Too far to play them twice. You know they have that saying about playing a team three times. Although is that true? Everybody always says that. But is it true? I don't think they'd say it if it wasn't true. Well that's true. Well they say Ty goes the runner and that wasn't true. But we love our spot though. Love it. I wonder how many people will get out there to Kansas City. I hope it's a lot because there's been a lot of energy around here for it by Nebraska being out. You know Kansas City was basically going to be a home game for them and now they're out. So I would assume, I don't, I wouldn't think A and M or Pitt bring a ton. Wisconsin may bring a bunch of people, but like, we have a chance to like. I don't think the crowd will be as big a factor. So, you know. Yeah. Cause we saw Nebraska in Nashville at the beginning of the year. What that crowd did. So many people. Yeah. So that was huge in getting them out of there. I wonder what Craig Skinner will do next. He's already gone up in a private jet to promote. Where else can you go? Outer space. We're going to think he flies like he has one more trick. He's got to do something. Well, at this point, jump out of the plane. You shouldn't have to do that to get people excited to buy tickets to see you in the Final Four. So. Yeah, but the game's not at home if it was here. Right. Might be different. So game is at 9 o' clock on Thursday against Wisconsin. We're going to have a watch party at the bar. I think it'll be really fun. You just need to plan on like staying up late, drinking some coffee. We're going to, we're going to go at it. Drew's going to come. If, if, if we start losing, you're going to leave. I will leave. Okay. Because you've left twice and we've come back and they were down oh two in the SEC championship. And I said, watch this. And then walked out the door. And we went 13 straight. So we will do it. Hopefully. The guy that plays the fight song with his harmonica over the. Over the microphone. Hopefully. But he'll be there. Request if you're out there, say if you're out there. Harmonic guy, come on and play the harmonica. Should be a lot of fun. We know, you know, we need one of those fun environments because we need to have one. We've had a lot of great basketball environments this year. And then lost. But we won Saturday. SEC run was fun. And these first couple weekend weekends of the NCAA has been good. Just got to finish the job. So this is a big. So Thursday night and then the finals would be on Sunday. If we win, do you feel like we're going to. We're going to take it? I'm getting, I'm getting nervous, but it's the good nervous, excited nervous. It's like right here in front of us. Like I said, we haven't tasted it. Success in basketball in a while or football. It's been fun giving attention to volleyball. Cause they certainly deserve it. I agree. So big time, big time win. Congrats. I hope to have someone involved with volleyball on with us tomorrow trying to get. See if we can get a couple of the players in here. And I do like, I do think volleyball is the only sport where you can get away with. During timeouts the players do choreographed dances. Yeah. Can you imagine if in basketball because it was like it was the third set and it the third set, like it's like 1412. Can you imagine if you had a timeout in basketball with like six minutes to go in the game? And they're doing a review. This break into song and dance. Yes. And Chandler and Noah Jasper Johnson are doing like the boot scooting boogie. We might think they actually get each other if they did that. That's true. But can you imagine that happening? And they do it with the other team's cheerleaders. Like courageous cheerleaders. Were dancing with our reserves. Breaks it. I mean, is the NCAA tournament Elite Eight not that serious. They are doing the dance routine. I'm amazed that everyone does that. I think it's cool step. It's choreographed. It's not like a spontaneous thing. They just got worked on it. Yeah. They're spending their practice, their dance. We got a big game. But there's also a dance coming up at halftime again, like, okay, let's take the playoff. Oklahoma, Alabama, Friday night, 10 minutes to go in the fourth quarter. And all the Oklahoma players just start dancing during a timeout. Doing the electric slide with the other team's band right in step together. Like that's. It's funny how the culture of these sports can be so different. Football. Wilstein hired four assistants. I'm not going to claim to. To know any of who these guys are. One of them came from Ohio State. One of them came from Texas San Antonio. One of them came from ucla. The common theme of all these guys though is we are a young staff. Like there is almost. We're hiring dudes who are assistants to the assistant regional manager. We're making them full time assistants and they're going to be young and presumably hungry. Do you like that strategy? I do. It fits the head coach, what he wants to do. He's got a connections to a lot of them. Some from like when he coached at Texas. San Antonio. There's going to be a lot of Texas influence. A lot of guys have had top stops in Texas. Including we added a new cutter. Cutter left two cutters. Our offensive line coach is a cutter. How many cutters? Who would have thought you could have. Do you know? Did you know one cutter before? No. Not one and now we have two cutters. Yeah. Unbelievable. We got a guy, the safeties coach, they just called Jcy. Josh Christian Young. He's already got a nickname. Jcy. I like that. We have Tony Washington Jr. He's got a west coast guy. Head stops at Oregon, played somewhere out west. Also, there's some player. I was watching a game the other night, Shannon. The player's name is, let's just say Shannon the Dude Saint Junior. No, the player's name is Shannon the Dude Senior and his dad is Shannon the Dude Junior. I don't think that's how that works. But that's what they did. That would imply the son gave birth to the dad, but the announcer said it's unique and then he just moved on. That's not even how it works. You can't say that. I agree with you. It's not how it works and it is unique. So he was a junior. Explain why they did it. The player was a senior and his dad was a junior. Covid, teams are out of control. Yeah, I need an explanation. They just didn't play it off. Like the announcer was like, it is unique. And then they just were like, it's like you would say he's wearing socks. Because the dad, maybe he had been a junior for so long, he didn't want to give it up. But I don't know how he gives his son single. So he wanted to name his son after his dad, but didn't want to call him the third. Like, I've been junior for 40 something years. I can't just be keep. We keep going back and forth, junior and senior, so that the fourth in line will be junior again. Interesting. Have you. Do you know anyone in life? Because you'll see thirds. I even know a fourth. Does anyone know a fifth or a sixth? King Louie. Yeah, besides the Kings, there are a lot of those, like Henry viii. But like, have you ever met anyone in your regular life who was a fifth? No. No. We have a third on this in this KSR family with Billy, he's a third. Billy's a third. Yeah, I know. Neil Gordon Barry the fourth. I know him. He's. He's Middlesborough and Stetson Bennett. He was a fourth, but I don't think I know a fifth. No fifths. Do you think the fifth, they just go, all right, back to senior. Enough of this already. Yeah, yeah. Well, anyway. 859280, 2287. Adam, go ahead, Adam. Hey, what's up, guys? Kind of football and a basketball. Football. What are the odds that Jeff Braum is at Michigan next year. Well, he already said no to Penn State. Is. Is that being reported as a possibility? I. I haven't seen it. I mean, he's like top three right now. Okay, well, I mean, I appreciate the call. Let. Would you. Let's say you were the coach at Kentucky, okay. And you were offered the Michigan job, but you were a Kentucky alum. Would you look at it? I think you have to consider it. And then you grew up in Lexington like he grew up in Louisville. When you're at Louisville, you're even in a worse off, worse off spot because you're not in the sec. This is a chance to get in a big conference. And actually, I know Louisville likes to think they're a playoff team and contenders every year, but they're not. You could actually get in that conversation if you went to Michigan for national championship. So you might do. I think I. Would you do it, Shannon? Yeah. Yeah. I think you would. If even if you went there. Yeah, I think at least have the conversation. Yeah. It'd be crazy. I think you have to consider it. And Michigan's a better job than Penn State. It is. It just. It just is a unique spot where they're desperate, too, right now. Not many names out there.

And when it comes to your health, that same matters. Yeah, especially if you or someone you care about is facing metastatic prostate cancer. There's a treatment called Pluvicto Lutetium Lou177, Vapivitide to Traxitan. And it's changing the game. Plavicto isn't chemo. It's a different kind of treatment that targets psma positive cells, including prostate cancer cells. Plavicto can be used before chemotherapy for some people. Here's the official word. Pluvicto is a prescription treatment used to treat adults with prostate specific membrane antigen positive metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer or PSMA positive MCRPC who have already been treated with hormone therapy and are considered appropriate to delay chemotherapy. Now let's talk safety. Pluvicto involves contact with radioactivity, which may increase the risk for cancer and cause fetal harm. Drink plenty of fluids, urinate often, use contraception, and talk to your doctor about how to reduce the risk of exposing others to radiation during and after treatment. It can also cause low blood cell counts, kidney problems, and infertility. Tell your doctor if you notice weakness, pale skin, shortness of breath, bleeding or bruising more easily, an infection, or changes in urination. Side effects include decreased blood cell counts, tiredness, dry mouth, nausea, appetite loss, joint or back pain, and constipation. Look, every day matters. And if you're in the fight or know someone who is, this is a conversation worth having. Ask your doctor about Plavicto, because just like in football, every play, every decision, every second counts.

Yeah, I kind of like George Michael and George Michael's kind of embarrassing, but I kind of like this song. I definitely like Faith. Yeah, I definitely like wake me up before you go. Go. That was Wham. Well, that was him though, right? His group. He was in Wham. Right? That's him. He's the lead singer. He's wearing shorts that no man should go out in public in in that. In that video. Like if you go watch that video. Yeah, I'd rather not. They need more. You know how you go to like a somewhere and they go, do you want 5 inches, 7 inch or 9 inch shorts? I've learned that like sevens the soft spot or the right spot. You can do five, but like, be ready for thigh. Georgio, like ordered one and a half. He did. One person writes, Matt, there are many people on the left who say worse things than Trump. When people die, you don't condemn them. Well, am I just supposed to like, condemn every person on earth? Yeah. There are awful people who say awful things all the time and they're awful, but they're not the president. The president is different. You know, you say like, when Charlie Kurt died, I was like, that's awful. It's tragic. Period. End of stop. It doesn't matter about anything else. It's awful. This man was murdered by his kid. How can you not. Like, how do you say something like that? So you've got hate in your heart. Like, get it? Like, you got to get rid of that. That's not the way to live life. Even if you are the president. You must have hate in your heart if you're sitting there saying those things when people die. I don't know how your first reaction isn't, gosh, that's terrible, right? Or am I crazy? No, no, you're completely right. I just. I didn't read the tweet. I saw it just look pretty unhindered. There was a lot of capitalism, like, he's. Even if you love him, I think we can all agree, like, he's losing it. Like, you don't write stuff like that. Sorry. Maybe I'm losing. Could you see that on the camera? Did you see that on the camera? I knocked the microphone 15ft. That's. That was not the way to make my point while knocking the microphone down. A lot of people are writing me about force, but very few fifths. Will Fuller is a wide receiver on Texas. He's apparently a fifth. Okay, but I don't see any force or. Excuse me. I see force. I don't see very many fists. You got a Billy R Sports the third. I hope so. That would be good. Quad A Green was the fourth. Did you know that? That's right. Lonus Seber was a fourth. Did not remember Lona Seaver being a fourth. Billy has the opportunity to make a fourth, and then he could force his son to make a fifth. There you go. For the. There's a lot of pressure. Do it for the show. I don't care about your family legacy. Do it for the show. I don't care about your legacy. You do it for the show. What? Speaking of legacy, what'd you think of John Cena? Champ thought it was terrible. Thought it was a horrible way to go out. I mean, the guy literally built his entire career off of one catchphrase. Never give up. And he gave up. But that's. But that's the great way. Like, you never give up until. But I'm gonna go ahead and give up in the final match. What does that teach kids? What does it teaches them? You know what? Age comes for everybody. Sometimes it's okay to give up something. You're all gonna have to give up at some point. God, it's a. Never give up. Just gave up. Who booked that crap? Triple H on. On Matt Myron. I was talking about it. And I said a couple of phrases, Shannon, that you and I know. Yeah. And Myron was like, maybe we need to change these phrases. Because he didn't know. I was like, you know, in wrestling, they always say, always go out on your back. Yeah. If you didn't know what that meant, he's like, why do you say that with your legs up? He was like, don't say, always go out on your back. And then I go, but the reason you do that, Shannon, is as you're going out, you want to give somebody a rub. And he was like, a rub. Pass the torch will be better. Yeah. On their back. Why don't talk about John Cena giving somebody a rub. Flip over. And it occurred to me, you know what? Maybe we could update the phrases. Does not say that you give people shade. I don't think we. I never realized that. Both those phrases are a little odd. Yeah. When you explain it to somebody who doesn't understand the industry, it's a little weird. Especially when you combine those two things on their own. Maybe you're okay together. It doesn't work. So he did point out that maybe that wasn't the language to use. Damon, go ahead. Damon. Hello. How are you? All good. What's up? Good. I just had a theory about the shooting problem. You know, when they're in. When they're in Joe Craft center, they're just looking at bare walls behind them. And then when they get an arena, they have depth in the crowd to look at. I'm gonna hang up and just listen. It's always been my worry, and I appreciate the call. I there. I don't know if there's any science to this, but I've always believed that it was the Joe Craft Center. If you've ever been in, the wall is directly behind the basket. And I've always wondered if that affects our shooting when we shoot against that every day and then we go into an arena where it's open. You know, when I think about, like. Like Duke. Duke. Duke practices every day in Cameron now Pope is practicing more in Rupp Arena. But I would have to think practicing in that enclosed arena every day, that when you go into a regular arena, it's got different. Don't you think? Yeah. I mean, NBA teams all practice in little facilities. I guess they're. They do step ahead. Maybe we just paint a crowd in the. In the Craft Center. Just paint little faces. It's like the depth perception. Well, I mean, you're going to get creative and do some of. Some of that fancy painting where it looks that way. Oh, you're saying paint it. Paint it like wearing. Like there's depth. Okay, that's interesting. Do that. So, I mean, NBA teams do play in these little. For years, though, I thought it was a problem, and I couldn't believe that they wouldn't practice there. I mean, we've all said 100 times, why don't they practice it? I think they scheduled to where they practice so many times a year and rep now. I don't know how many times it is, but. But so many times. Something's not translating, though. Whatever it is, I don't think it's the building. But Pope's got to figure out why they're shooting so well there and cannot bring it into games. David, go ahead, David. I've got a little bit American trivia for you guys. Okay. Remember. Do you remember. Remember the Bluegrass conspiracy? I mean, it's a little before my time, but I know there's. I read that book many years ago, but Andrew Thornton. Andrew Thornton was the guy that parachuted out of the plane, died in the driveway in Tennessee. Cocaine bear, that whole story. But here's a notorious American thing. When the feds and everybody were investigating him, he faked an assassination attempt. He was going out the back door at American. You guys can Google this. And he had somebody come up and shoot him in the chest. He was wearing a bulletproof vest. Wow. Didn't know that part. So much happening at the American. I just wanted some chicken. You know, I go three or four times a year. I've never had a bad meal there. I appreciate the call. I remember always liking it. I just kind of. You know, there were certain, when I was growing up, old places to eat. Morrison's cafeteria in what is now the Lexington Green. You go out there, food be good, but you. It was an older crowd, but I think American is now going to have a second life. Maybe it didn't need a second life, but Charles and the chicken has taken it up. We'll take a break. Be right back. Ksr. TJ Smith, personal injury attorney. Call tj. He'll make him pay. Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio, presented by Stockton Mortgage. Here's Matt Jones. Had to throw in the depth perception there. I got you. Yeah, yeah. Who is this Saliva? I don't know. Have we ever played Saliva? I'm sure we have. We played everybody on this show. All right, so I'm gonna run a few through some of the smaller stories the weekend. Diego Pavia. Yeah. Embarrassed? I'm not. But he should be the way he acted. I mean, his mom should have taught him better than that. You would think. He wrote on Instagram f the voters. Yeah. Then he went to a club and wrote F Indiana. He came out yesterday, was like, sorry about that. I don't know what I was thinking, but I'm fine with sorrys. But like, you knew what you were doing, dude. You did it twice. You didn't just in the moment do it, then you did it again. I mean, just from a practical standpoint, do you want to have an NFL career? I mean, you're probably not going to have one anyway, but like, no one's going to like take a mid level prospect and then go give you a chance if you're going to be a jerk. I saw his apology and I didn't read it. I just saw it and thought an agent called him and said, what are you doing? We are trying to get you drafted in a few months. Let's behave. Shannon. I mean, he had. He's kind of, kind of been a likable figure. I don't know, man. I think like the heel turns coming. He's going, he's Gunther now. Yeah, a little too much. Made an ass out of himself. Should have just let it go. And you're right. I mean, when you do stuff like that, NFL, GM scouts, they're all looking at that. They see that and it's not going to be good if you even had a chance to the NFL, he's going to end up being like a footnote. And he could have been like America's Cinderella story. And the guy. That one is a Cinderella story. Right. So Mendoza, they're both Cinderella stories. You know, his, his parents immigrated here from Cuba and he like talked to his mom like, that's, that's. You both are awesome stories. Why do you have to be the jerk? And he's obviously trying to be Manzel and even his buddies with him and he hasn't. No, but it's like, don't you see how what that got him? Like, that's not the path you want to be on. I don't even think Manzel did something like that. He didn't do f everybody else. He didn't try to take the person. Like he didn't bring other people down that I know of. Maybe I'm forgetting, but I remember he would build himself up, but I don't remember him trying to bring other people down. I just mean being that guy. We saw how that worked in an NFL locker room when he got there. I would be trying to do something a little different because you don't want that comparison in the NFL when you're trying to get a spot on a team. And the fact that you had the quarterback from Indiana and the quarterback from Vanderbilt even in that Heisman conversation is incredible. Happy for him. It's one of the most amazing stories. What did we think of Trump's coin flip? I didn't even see it. Didn't flip. It's like, a little underhanded. It kind of looked like he had seen a coin for the first time. He just, like, threw it up in the air. Did it have his face on it? Can't imagine him flipping a coin with another president's face on it. Yeah, probably not. The Army Navy game was good again. Was. We got to go at some point. I think it'd be awesome to go to. Maybe we can do the coin flip and flip it. Yeah, he kind of, like lifted it and just lobbed it up in there. Yeah, it is. I'm watching it now. Like he's throwing a feather. Like a feather. That's exactly throwing it like a feather. One person writes, which of you would be more likely to do what the guy in Australia did, bringing the shooter down? You want to talk about a dude with some cojones. Have you seen that video, Shannon? Did he just, like, run at the guy? I don't. I don't think I've seen it. The gun from him. Look at it. Huge gun. I mean, dude has a massive gun. The guy runs up to him and takes it from him. And then he was with his son, and his son shot the guy. He's alive, though. That took the gun. But see, look at that video in real time, Shane. And that's one of the more. I can't think of a person doing. Excuse my. Like a ballsier thing. I'd like to think I could do that in that moment, but I don't think. I don't know. I mean, let's just run the car, right? I mean, I am probably. We'd all love to be the hero in that moment, but actually he goes and takes it from him. You got to have I got nothing to lose mentality at that point. Like, it's all or nothing here. You got. I'm going to die anyway. Hero or you're dead. Yeah, I see it here. Pretty amazing. At least he came up from behind. Still, though, wouldn't. I mean, the more likely thing is you would stay hidden behind the car. Yeah. And just hope that things he doesn't turn around. Right. Yeah. But he went and I'm sure he saved people's lives. Yeah. Big gun. My God. Bazooka. Yeah. So I had like a. Just normal dude. Like a fruit shop or something. Yeah. And then there's. Shoot. I know I keep saying this, but I feel like I said this when. When. When Luigi got shot. The guy in New York, the shooter at Brown. I mean, these kids, it's so sad. Studying for like an economics exam. Comes in to die. Nine are critic are like seriously wounded. They still haven't caught him. They. They brought in the wrong guy for questioning. They've now released him and said he didn't do it. But how on a college campus do they not. I mean, don't they have cameras everywhere on a college campus? Wouldn't you think? Yeah, yeah, they should. Most of them do. You know, and Greenberg son goes there. Shannon. Did you know that? I actually saw that on the news this morning. I didn't know that till this morning. His son goes there. He worked. His son worked for ovw. You've met him a number of times. He worked for us that one summer. Yeah, he goes to Brown. And I talked to Craig Saturday night. When I talked to Craig, his son was hunkered down across the street because they hadn't let him move yet. You know, Craig already barricaded the door. I mean, I know exactly. He's had these. Can you imagine how terrifying it would be. Well, even today to be there? Because they still haven't caught the guy anywhere around there, really. Canceled finals apparently. And they may be about to send everybody home. But can you imagine like being they. They were barricaded for like eight hours because they said, we still don't know where this guy is and they still don't know where he is. In this day and age, it seems like they could catch anywhere. I believe that they can't. I mean, I. It's not like it was a murder in a closed house. This is in a school building. There are multiple videos of the guy walking places in Shannon they can't catch. That's amazing to. Yeah, I mean, like I said, there's cameras everywhere. Traffic cameras, cameras all over campuses. You would think they would be able to see where he went. The guy carrying a gun. It shouldn't be hard. And they ended up going to the wrong guy. They basically detained a guy for 24 hours and it wasn't the right guy initially do that. The Charlie Kirk thing as well. They got that old man. Remember? They were. The old man. Yeah, I mean, I understand, like you have to detain a lot of people because you want them. I get it. But apparently, I mean, they questioned this guy for 24 hours, and then they released him this morning and said it's not that he's not the guy. I mean, I know there are bigger issues than just his feelings. That's got to be weird for him, too, being pulled into that. You know, in other countries, it's illegal to say who they've detained until they charge them. Did you know that? To protect them a little bit. In case a situation like this happens. I don't know if they released this guy's name or not. But anyway, stuff happens too often, and it happens. It would be terrifying. If you're. If you're Craig Shannon and your son, imagine your kids off at college, Right? That happens. And they still haven't found the person. You probably tell them come home. I would say so. And especially, you know, in his situation. He's already been shot at once already. Yeah, Craig. I'm talking about Craig. Yeah. Yeah. So, Mike. Go ahead, Mike. Hey, guys. How are y' all today? Doing good. All right. So this is Mike from Knoxville. I told you guys a couple weeks ago that I had put up my UK Christmas tree for the first time in five years. Well, I'll tell you this, the other day, I walked in the house this past. What's been a couple weeks ago, my wife had hung a Tennessee ornament on my UK tree. Oh, this past week. Yeah, this past week. I took the. The ornament off my tree and put it on her tree. Right. We beat Indiana this week. Okay. So I'm just saying, times are changing. Things are going to be better. I get it, Jaden. Quaintance is coming in. Change the face of our defense. Yes. So I think we gotta go big blue. All right. Appreciate the call. I like it. I've been to Knoxville a couple times here because with my. With my dad, because that's where he's getting his treatment, and there's so much orange. So gross. It's. It's like. I mean, the Pete, you know, people are nice, but that. That color, like the Alabama guy said that throw up orange inside a pumpkin. It's like in a pumpkin. It's its own thing. You don't see it anywhere else. Everything's like, called, like, Orange Car Wash. You know? Not washing my car there. I'd rather be dirty. Yeah, exactly. Who wants their car to be orange? Let's go to David. Go ahead, David. Hey, Matt, how you doing? Good. What's up? Hey, I Just wanted to clear up something that you all been talking about for several months as far as Ryan Lemming getting blasted for predicting Lamar Wilkerson to Kentucky. Yes, it was. It was not Lamar Wilkerson that he got blasted for. It was a big man from San Diego State that pulled his name out of the portal at the last minute and returned to San Diego State. Wasn't it both? I think it was both. It was whiff season. Boy, run there. This was when I was in Amsterdam. You're thinking of Magoon Gua. It was Magoon Guath. And I think. Yeah, yeah. But I think he did it with both of them. I think he was. I think he. He had whiffed on Magoon and. Which made him double down on Lamar. Okay. I guess I missed Lamar thing because everybody in the planet, including Lamar Wilkerson himself, had himself going to Kentucky. Of course, I mean, everybody. But we're just giving him a hard time. But I think what happened, and I appreciate the call again, I didn't. Was. I've just from what people have said, he whiffed on Magoon and like, he was getting a hard time. He was like, but I'm getting this one and then everybody's going to see. And then it didn't. I remember the show that morning. Like, he started the show and he's like, drew, should we just go and report it? And I specifically went. I went back and made sure I said this. I went, we are reporting anything. You are reporting it. Because I have not heard anything. And he's like, well, I'm going to say it later today. Lamar Wilkes interview a cat. And I was. I said, ryan Lemon is saying later today. So it was all him. And he was feeling it the beginning of the show that day. He hasn't scooped since then. Well, he was Casey at the bat that day. He was. I mean, he was. He was whiffing. Well, Yaxel that went to Michigan, he was pretty sure on that one, too. Yeah, he's got stuff. He's learning the portal. It changes too much. Changes too much in portal. I think you're right. You got to be careful. If you have people on your Christmas list, they're hard to buy for. Give them the gift of Noche Linda Farms dry age beef this holiday season. Order boxes of beef or gift cards.

And when it comes to your health, that same mindset matters. Yeah, especially if you or someone you care about is facing metastatic prostate cancer. There's a treatment called pluvicto lutetium LU177 vapivotide tetraxitan and it's changing the game. Plavicto isn't chemo. It's a different kind of treatment that targets PSMA positive cells, including prostate cancer cells. Plavicto can be used before chemotherapy for some people. Here's the official word. Pluvicto is a prescription treatment used to treat adults with prostate specific membrane antigen positive metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer or PSMA positive MCRPC who have already been treated with hormone therapy and are considered appropriate to delay chemotherapy. Now let's Talk Safety Pluvicto involves contact with radioactivity, which may increase the risk for cancer and cause fetal harm. Drink plenty of fluids, urinate often, use contraception, and talk to your doctor about how to reduce the risk of exposing others to radiation during and after treatment. It can also cause low blood cell counts, kidney problems, and infertility. Tell your doctor if you notice weakness, pale skin, shortness of breath, bleeding or bruising more easily, an infection, or changes in urination. Side effects include decreased blood cell counts, tiredness, dry mouth, nausea, appetite loss, joint or back pain, and constipation. Look, every day matters, and if you're in the fight or know someone who is, this is a conversation worth having. Ask your doctor about Plavicto because just like in football, every play, every decision, every second counts. Visit pluvicto.com to learn more.

Probably have some Christmas questions. So come join us. Get your friends and family member will also do the volleyball Thursday night. So back to back night St. John's game is that at 12:30 Saturday? It's an early game, isn't it? That sounds right. I think that's, I think that's right. Also, we're doing our KS bar playoff thing where we give you have a chance to win money during the national championship. We the original sponsor, it didn't work out. So if you're, if you have a business and you'd interested me doing something with us on that with the bar and getting, getting a lot of publicity for your business, just send me a message. 772-774-5254. We're kind of in a quick turnaround. So if you have, if you can, if you're interested in that, it's a chance to get in with us at and be part of the playoff special, which is always fun. That championship night where all that money's on the line and everybody's nervous is always fun. Cool. Yeah. It's even fun just picking the bowl games, even the crappy ones that come. We're not doing, we're just doing the playoff this year. We're only doing the playoff game. So it'll be, it'd be 11 games. I think you're confirmed at 12:30 for St. John. 12:30. All right. 859280. 2287. One person writes, Matt, how did they spell dipsy doo wrong on the signs? Did you see that Shannon sign said instead of dipsy doo, they said dispy doo. Oh, yeah. How do they say up? Well, I feel like ESPN had to have made those signs right. They were too professional. Nobody's like bringing a sign that says dispy do. No, no. Why did. But I'm with you, though. How did no one catch that? It said dispy. I don't know. How did everyone like how. I mean, a lot of people caught it when it was on TV because Twitter blew up with it and I even heard somebody called the post game show about it. But I don't know how I got there. Espn, somebody who has one job and nobody do. And there was no editor, you know, that learned a proofreader. But then sometimes I will go, okay, how does that happen? And then I go, well, Billy was supposed to do the stats. Yeah. So you know, you could see how it happened. You can see how it. I mean I love the people at espn but like I can see how things happen. Hopefully that's not your spotter for the New Orleans bowl practicing tonight during Monday Night Football. Just if you want to know what I'm doing tonight, Shannon, close your eyes. At about 9 o' clock I'm going to be sitting cross legged on my bed calling the Monday Night Football. You call me and let me hear your call. Like no, I don't need anybody hearing it. Right. I need to like give you like I need. I have to go, I have to get my reps tonight with. No, there is going to be someone suggested to me that I need to do at least one game with people watching so they can go. That didn't make sense. Give you notes on it like Drew and I can give you. So I'm going to do Monday Night Football tonight and then bowl games start like on next Friday. So I'm gonna do. I don't know which one it is, but I'm gonna do one. But maybe we'll do a Twitter. What is it? The X Twitter space space? Yeah, Twitter space of me calling a bowl game. Or we could all go to KS Bar one night. But we blindfold ourselves and we just listen to you call whatever game is on and we have to just see it. Are you visualizing your play by play the Boca Raton ball? We'll all be all friends having drinks, eating wings. But we're relying on you to paint the picture. It's interesting. What, what are the games coming up here? What are the balls here? We've got Tuesday night, the Salute to Veterans Bowl, Troy and Jacksonville State. You know a lot about Troy. Thing is, Shannon, I might owe it to the veterans to call. You should. Veterans would love it. I mean I don't know if anybody else would, but the veterans would. They would. Mark. Go ahead. Mark. Hey, is this. Is it me? Yeah, it is you if you're Mark. Hey. Yeah, yeah. There's so many marks that calling me anymore. Hey, yeah, I just wanted to bring up like over the years I've called in a few times to your show. And I've made the comment about the UK's practice arena where it's white. And I just want to say that I've been talking about that for years. How I think that depth perception could be throwing those guys off if they don't get to practice and rep a lot. And so it'd be cool if they could stimulate Mario. Mario said that when the NBA went to the bubble, the guys all shot better because the bubble was so, like, it looked like their practice facilities. So, yeah, there may be. There may be something to them. Yeah. Make it black or even paint people like they're up in the stands. Make it look 3D sort of. So they, you know, if you're an analytics guy and I appreciate the call, and if you're into all that stuff, you might say, hey, this is something where we can have. Have an advantage because, like, Kansas practices in their basketball arena. Duke practices in their basketball arena. I don't think North Carolina does. Trying to think Yukon practices in their arena. You know, we don't get to practice in ours. And I think a lot of teams probably do, honestly. Yeah. I don't know if that's the answer, but it could be part of the problem because we keep hearing about these unbelievable shooting stats. But for whatever reason, it's not getting from the Joe Craft center to a game that matters. You would think that our coach, being a former player, would know that. That. I mean, I wonder where they practiced that I'd be interested to. To see. Matt. Go ahead, Matt. Hey, good morning, guys. I got one thing for you. The Tennessee orange is the worst color ever. Drew, when you feed your baby pureed carrots, you're gonna see Tennessee orange coming out the other end. Oh, God. Thank you. Thank you for that. Great image. Yeah, There you go. Glad thank you for that, sir. DraftKings bet 5. Get $200. Go to DraftKings.com. you made Shannon queasy on that. He does not get that a lot. Use a promo code. KSR bet 5.

I think what Steelers like a three and a half. I'll say. Dolphins in the upset. Underdogs have been good for me lately. Okay, Shannon, give me the Steelers and the three. I'm going to take the Steelers. I think old man Aaron will get the women. Dolphins been playing better with Mr. Short Pants. Playing hard for him. They've been playing well, trying to keep his job. I think he was like one in six, and now they're six and seven. We tried to fire him on cover zero for like four straight weeks. Now they're winning games. Why is Billy walking in here? Stern face. Oh, what's happening? We're in trouble. Somebody in trouble? Why are you looking so angry? There's 30 seconds left. Show. Why are you walking in here?
