8. Tone and Style

The crew keeps the episode informal, self-deprecating, and sharply witty, with a blend of Kentucky-centric references, open audience involvement, and running gags about age, neighborhood life, and sports quirks: “That might have been a story for the Inside Voice,” “Keep that in mind, that was a West Virginia team that went 9–23,” and “I'm America; I'm glad we benefitted from the corruption—let's just win.”

[Drew Franklin]

this is Kentucky Sports Radio, presented by Stockton Mortgage and the Kentucky Office of Highway Safety Safe Summer Driving Tour. Now here's Matt Jones.

[Matt Jones]

Welcome, everyone.

[Ryan Lemond]

This is Kentucky Sports Radio, Monday, July 6th.

[Matt Jones]

I'm Matt Jones here on a, you know, normal day in Lexington, Kentucky. You can give a shout on the

[Ryan Lemond]

Clark's Pump and Shop phone line.

[Matt Jones]

Love take your calls today. 859-280-2287. A Vision Auto Glass text machine is 772-774-5254. In this edition sponsored by the TJ Smith Law Office. If you call TJ, he'll make him pay. Ryan is out on his vacation to the Hilton Head timeshare, which I hope is working well.

[Shannon Ladue]

Hope he's having a good time.

[Matt Jones]

Hope he is, too. And we have Drew and Shannon. Billy will come in in the second hour to his counties and all of that. Guys, it was the Fourth of July. The U.S. soccer team plays tonight. Lots of exciting stuff going. Did you, were you out with the fireworks this weekend?

[Shannon Ladue]

I saw zero fireworks. I was not the most patriotic person.

[Ryan Lemond]

Zero fireworks.

[Shannon Ladue]

Zero fireworks. They were outside my door and I did not walk to the window to look up.

[Matt Jones]

You know, I, I hate fireworks. I think fireworks might be the most overrated thing.

[Drew Franklin]

You hush mouth.

[Matt Jones]

You, you like them fireworks?

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah.

[Ryan Lemond]

Why do you like them?

[Drew Franklin]

Well, in Bullock county, you can't avoid them.

[Matt Jones]

First of all, nobody, they give them to babies.

[Drew Franklin]

Nobody per capita spends more money than Bullock County.

[Lowe's Advertiser]

Is that right?

[Drew Franklin]

Yes. I mean, it was going off last night like a Fourth of July party

[Ryan Lemond]

on the Bullet County. What are the things?

[Matt Jones]

Bullet county has a lot of Mountain Dew fireworks and what else?

[Drew Franklin]

Awesomeness.

[Ryan Lemond]

Okay, that should be, that should be on the thing. Well, I, you know, I usually try

[Matt Jones]

to actively avoid them.

[Shannon Ladue]

It's good to get out of the way if they're coming at you.

[Matt Jones]

But my friend, hubby, he has like a neighborhood thing.

[Ryan Lemond]

So, you know, I've, I've committed to

[Matt Jones]

try to be like a neighbor to people, you know, because everywhere I've lived, Shannon, I've not known my neighbors.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah.

[Matt Jones]

So I'm going to try to become neighbors.

[Shannon Ladue]

You're branching out now.

[Matt Jones]

This isn't my neighborhood, but the premise is still the same.

[Shannon Ladue]

You're practicing.

[Ryan Lemond]

Practicing. So I went over, I guess, Idle Hour Country Club.

[Matt Jones]

You know, that's a, that's fancy schmancy, right? I've only been over there one time. Well, no, I didn't get to go to the country club. You just, they put a wall around them. You know, you are exclusive when you're like, we are building a wall to keep the people out.

[Shannon Ladue]

Kind of tucked in over there, too.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yes. And it's in downtown Lexington.

[Matt Jones]

And they're like, nope, don't come near here.

[Ryan Lemond]

But apparently they put on. Sources told me.

[Matt Jones]

Shannon, you want to know what? Now this is. Again, this is unofficial. Okay?

[Ryan Lemond]

Sources told me that Idle Hour. You know what I heard they spend on their fireworks?

[Matt Jones]

Just take a guess. What do you think a country club should spend on.

[Shannon Ladue]

I'm going to say $8,000.

[Matt Jones]

What do you think?

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah, I was going to say like 10. 10 grand?

[Matt Jones]

I heard 60. Wow. Now, I don't know if that's true. Okay, so I want to be clear, but that's a lot of money for fireworks.

[Shannon Ladue]

So the neighborhood was talking about. There's some gossip on.

[Ryan Lemond]

Here's the thing.

[Matt Jones]

You know, the country club pays for it, but the people around Idle Hour, they kind of like, they get the benefit without having to pay.

[Ryan Lemond]

They get scraps. So, like, I drove by the Shriners.

[Matt Jones]

I guess it's not called Shriners anymore, but what is that on Richmond Road? The huge facility close to where Cal used to live?

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah.

[Ryan Lemond]

And I was like, what are all these people doing?

[Matt Jones]

They were setting up to steal the fireworks.

[Shannon Ladue]

On that big hill?

[Matt Jones]

Yeah, they were setting up on the hill. And by steal, I mean watch. You know, people were parked in the median, which I didn't even know you were allowed to do on Richmond Road.

[Shannon Ladue]

No rules. On the fourth.

[Matt Jones]

On the fourth. So anyway, we went over there, watched it. I would admit to you, Shannon, after three minutes, I was good.

[Drew Franklin]

You'd seen her.

[Matt Jones]

Now, look, they're the colors. That's nice.

[Caller (various callers)]

Look, there's red.

[Drew Franklin]

They could at least hand it you a sparkling.

[Matt Jones]

So I'm kind of anti firework, but it was good to have to meet people. There was a guy from my neighborhood, they had. In my neighborhood, which is the green bar area, they had a golf cart parade.

[Shannon Ladue]

Oh, yeah. It's a big deal out there.

[Drew Franklin]

That. Now that is something I'm anti.

[Matt Jones]

You're anti the golf cart parade.

[Drew Franklin]

Golf cart parade. They do this in Florida. Like it's such a big deal. Decorate your golf. Nobody would see your damn golf carts.

[Matt Jones]

Well, these people had decorated their golf cart.

[Ryan Lemond]

I didn't listen. If you don't know a golf cart

[Matt Jones]

parade is happening and you just walk

[Ryan Lemond]

outside and you see golf carts dressed in flags.

[Matt Jones]

You think, am I being invaded by old people?

[Shannon Ladue]

Did you wave a little flag as it passed?

[Ryan Lemond]

No, I didn't know it was happening. They had a post golf cart parade

[Matt Jones]

cookout, but no one had invited me to it, and I didn't feel like I Could just walk. You can't just walk into a strange.

[Ryan Lemond]

Oh, they were outside.

[Matt Jones]

Are you allowed to just walk into

[Ryan Lemond]

someone's yard at a cookout?

[Shannon Ladue]

Is it like one house, or was it like, at the country club?

[Matt Jones]

No, it's at one person.

[Shannon Ladue]

If it's at one person's house, that's a little.

[Matt Jones]

Well, people kind of look at you

[Shannon Ladue]

like, who's this guy on the 4th?

[Drew Franklin]

You know?

[Ryan Lemond]

Yes.

[Matt Jones]

I didn't go. I didn't go. No. You know, as I was walking, another

[Ryan Lemond]

guy goes, come over later for pork.

[Matt Jones]

But then he didn't tell me where he lived. Gotta follow the smell.

[Ryan Lemond]

So these are all things I've got to learn about.

[Matt Jones]

About neighborhoods. But it was a good Fourth of

[Ryan Lemond]

July outside of that.

[Matt Jones]

And, you know. So my point is, Drew, I interacted with people, something that I've generally tried to not do in neighborhoods. It's new times. Gonna try to interact with people.

[Shannon Ladue]

You had a breakthrough on America's 250th, where I live, you can walk out and see big shows in, like, four directions. I can see Greenbrier. I can see downtown. My neighborhood had a big one. I sat on the couch. There was a salt and pepper concert. Oh, actually, I watched them on tv. Does that count? I saw the New York ones.

[Matt Jones]

See, I think fireworks on TV are even worse. Well, I just didn't want to get

[Ryan Lemond]

the point of watching a firework on television.

[Drew Franklin]

I'm with you. Like, I need to be able to feel that boom.

[Shannon Ladue]

I can hear the boom.

[Drew Franklin]

I mean, it's not the same. I need.

[Shannon Ladue]

I could hear it all around me.

[Matt Jones]

You could hear it?

[Shannon Ladue]

Oh, yeah.

[Ryan Lemond]

Does the city do one?

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah, downtown.

[Ryan Lemond]

Feels like the city should do one. They do one downtown.

[Matt Jones]

Okay.

[Shannon Ladue]

If. If my baby were a little bit older, we probably. I heart would be a great place to come up and watch it, you know, all glass down here.

[Ryan Lemond]

Downtown.

[Shannon Ladue]

But she doesn't care about fireworks.

[Ryan Lemond]

I kept reading online. You know, I was on Facebook a

[Matt Jones]

little more this weekend than usual because I just started going down rabbit holes of, you know, just weirdness all across the state, and people get very upset.

[Ryan Lemond]

A lot of people say in their

[Matt Jones]

Facebook post, think about the dogs today. Yeah, but what do they mean?

[Shannon Ladue]

Dogs go crazy with the noises you can't get.

[Ryan Lemond]

So dogs don't like the fireworks.

[Shannon Ladue]

And I was a little worried with a newborn. She was asleep, and there were some lo. Noises, and she'd kind of jerk and

[Ryan Lemond]

startle, but she never woke up on Facebook. Think about the dogs. What am I supposed to do pray for them.

[Shannon Ladue]

Probably not shoot fireworks at 1am but

[Ryan Lemond]

do they really think that people are not going to shoot fireworks? It's the 4th of July. So I kind of don't understand what those posts are because they'll go, everyone needs to think about the dogs.

[Matt Jones]

And so I, you know, I want to be considerate.

[Drew Franklin]

So I'm like, all right, Yep, I think about them.

[Matt Jones]

I'm thinking about now.

[Drew Franklin]

Watch this M80 go off.

[Lowe's Advertiser]

Now.

[Ryan Lemond]

What am I supposed to do now that I'm thinking about them?

[Shannon Ladue]

You have a dog, you can't get it to shut up.

[Ryan Lemond]

When fireworks are going off, does it specifically affect dogs?

[Shannon Ladue]

Dogs and babies right across the street from me. It sounded like they were shooting cannonballs and I was so worried I was

[Ryan Lemond]

going to hear that something's happening. Or is it because the sound hits them a specific way?

[Shannon Ladue]

Probably just that it's so loud. Something new startles them. They're reacting.

[Ryan Lemond]

Which leads me to one more thing.

[Matt Jones]

Do you know, Shannon, you may not,

[Ryan Lemond]

but you know where.

[Matt Jones]

Joseph Beth Bookstore.

[Shannon Ladue]

Of course. I was there yesterday.

[Matt Jones]

So there was a Reddit thread this weekend of people talking about. And this is. This has screwed me up.

[Ryan Lemond]

You were there yesterday, right?

[Matt Jones]

Today, Shannon, for the suits.

[Drew Franklin]

Brown suit mating.

[Matt Jones]

Lexington Green at Logan's.

[Ryan Lemond]

They said that there is outside of Lexington Green in that little, what do you call it?

[Matt Jones]

Porch area. Like what do you call those things

[Shannon Ladue]

back where Palmer's is?

[Ryan Lemond]

No, no, just in front of.

[Shannon Ladue]

In the front, in the front, whatever

[Matt Jones]

that is, that little rotunda or whatever

[Ryan Lemond]

that they play a high pitched sound

[Matt Jones]

to keep birds away.

[Ryan Lemond]

And these people on this Reddit thread, there were some people saying, I can't even walk in there because the sound

[Matt Jones]

hits me so much.

[Ryan Lemond]

And then I've realized I don't even hear the sound. Do you hear the sound?

[Shannon Ladue]

I've never heard it. I've been there a couple times.

[Ryan Lemond]

They literally can't even go because it gets in their brain so much. And yet I've never heard it. And it makes me wonder, am I deaf?

[Matt Jones]

Are those people crazy?

[Ryan Lemond]

Does that sound actually exist or are they making this up?

[Shannon Ladue]

I've never heard it. I've been there a couple times in the last month. I used to work over there. I don't know if they did it years ago.

[Matt Jones]

So you don't hear it?

[Shannon Ladue]

Never heard it.

[Ryan Lemond]

I don't hear it today. Mario, Shannon, you all have to tell

[Matt Jones]

me when we go out there.

[Shannon Ladue]

Okay?

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah.

[Matt Jones]

Do you hear it?

[Shannon Ladue]

What if they just fold over in pain as soon as we get Close, do you say?

[Ryan Lemond]

So Mario walks in and he just starts yelling immediately. Ah, Karen Dawes. So I am going to ask the

[Matt Jones]

listeners, 772-7745254, do any of you hear that?

[Ryan Lemond]

Because on Reddit there were many, many people saying, they've got to stop doing that.

[Matt Jones]

It's too loud. And I don't hear one thing.

[Drew Franklin]

How could they hear it but you guys can't hear it.

[Ryan Lemond]

That's what I'm saying. Are there sounds that some humans. I know there are sounds dogs can

[Matt Jones]

hear or birds can hear that we can't hear.

[Ryan Lemond]

But are there sounds that humans can

[Matt Jones]

hear that other humans can't hear?

[Shannon Ladue]

I think there's maybe a gap in like a level you could hear and I could hear, but it wouldn't. It'd be a thin margin. I don't think it'd be like, you know, dogs have dog whistles.

[Ryan Lemond]

They were. The people in this story were acting like they walk around going, ears are bleeding. And I'm just trying to get a buck.

[Drew Franklin]

You remember Yachty and Laurel? Some people heard Laurel, some people heard Yanni. So maybe there is.

[Matt Jones]

That's right in the dress where some people saw blue and some people saw yellow.

[Drew Franklin]

Maybe there is something to it. I'll let you know when I get there today.

[Shannon Ladue]

Well, we'll get to the bottom of this.

[Ryan Lemond]

If the four of us, if none

[Matt Jones]

of us can hear it, then I'm leaning towards the Reddit people are making this up. Unless people tell me on the text machine that they can hear.

[Ryan Lemond]

I've been going to Joseph Beth for

[Matt Jones]

20 years and have never heard it. So I don't know.

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah, I'm, I'm calling, I'm calling out a bluff here. I don't think it's true.

[Matt Jones]

Well, we'll find out. Now, the other thing that's happening is tonight. Well, first of all, last night, the Mexico England soccer game. Shannon, did you watch it?

[Drew Franklin]

I didn't even know it was on. No.

[Ryan Lemond]

Well, what is it with you all? Like, you and Ryan in the World cup, like, that was a massive.

[Drew Franklin]

I'm worried about our country. We played tonight at 8 o'.

[Boost Mobile Advertiser]

Clock.

[Ryan Lemond]

You didn't even think about turning on Mexico and England in Mexico City? You could argue Mexico and England might be the two countries the closest to us both, like, historically, geographically. And you just weren't interested?

[Drew Franklin]

Not at all. Nope.

[Matt Jones]

One of the best sporting events I've ever seen. When you combine environment and intention and excitement.

[Ryan Lemond]

I mean, soccer is not the most

[Matt Jones]

exciting sport in the world, but nevertheless,

[Ryan Lemond]

just the whole thing and the crowd shots and the national anthems and like, the one guy had a on his ear and it just. Everything was just so exciting.

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah. And, you know, they're pretty close teams. Like, the points prep was pretty close, too, but, like, for England, it looked like you're going to run away with it. Run away with the Mexico. Just keep it close, keep it close. And it kept giving them hope, which just made the atmosphere even better.

[Matt Jones]

Oh, I mean, the beginning.

[Ryan Lemond]

First of all, I don't know what

[Matt Jones]

they do at a stadio as Teka,

[Ryan Lemond]

but, like, that seems the place is just wild. They don't stop. And then when the Mexican national anthem. Again, I'm not trying to make everybody mad, but the Mexican national anthem is. Seems so fun, right?

[Shannon Ladue]

Are you ranking it ahead of Star Spangled Banner?

[Ryan Lemond]

Well, first of all, the British national anthem is just got. Is just our song. I mean, I know we stole it

[Matt Jones]

from them, but is it my country?

[Ryan Lemond]

Tis of the right.

[Shannon Ladue]

So it's ours. We took it when we won the war.

[Caller (various callers)]

Okay.

[Shannon Ladue]

But it came with the territory.

[Ryan Lemond]

But I know that song. But the Mexican song, they're all gleeful

[Matt Jones]

and, like, it's kind of upbeat.

[Shannon Ladue]

Did you see the night before the party they had outside England's hotel?

[Ryan Lemond]

Is that fair? Foul, Shannon.

[Matt Jones]

For the Mexican fans to stand outside the English hotel and try to keep the players up on fireworks.

[Drew Franklin]

I think that's foul. I think it's foul.

[Shannon Ladue]

You do?

[Matt Jones]

I think it's pretty foul.

[Ryan Lemond]

Isn't that what home field advantage is?

[Caller (various callers)]

Absolutely.

[Shannon Ladue]

Speaking of home field advantage, I was thinking, if I were an England fan, I am taking off my England shirt on the way out.

[Ryan Lemond]

Exactly what I thought when that game was over.

[Matt Jones]

I had to be. If I was an England fan, I'd be like, can I get an escort out of here?

[Shannon Ladue]

I'm walking out naked. I wouldn't run an England.

[Ryan Lemond]

Do you like that?

[Matt Jones]

England sings Oasis after it's over.

[Shannon Ladue]

It threw me off because they were in Mexico City. I guess the winning team picks the playlist.

[Ryan Lemond]

But I thought, oh, yeah, they see Champagne Supernova, baby. The team went and sang that with the crowd. So, like, their country roads is Wonderwall.

[Drew Franklin]

I mean, they got the Beatles, right, and they're choosing Oasis over the Beatles.

[Ryan Lemond]

But I will say, when they got

[Matt Jones]

to the chorus, they were yelling. I mean, they were. They were into it.

[Shannon Ladue]

You didn't really know they were there until.

[Ryan Lemond]

You're gonna be the one that saves me.

[Shannon Ladue]

How about the injury in the celebration of the guy jumping the Wall. Did you see that?

[Matt Jones]

Okay, it was a wonder wall. Which one are you talking about?

[Shannon Ladue]

One of England's players hurdled the little wall to celebrate. Oh, he got hurt bad. They had to bring out stretchers. He's out.

[Matt Jones]

Oh, I must have missed.

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah. They're starting midfielder.

[Ryan Lemond]

I did, like, at the end of

[Matt Jones]

the game when the Mexican player got hurt and they didn't have any more substitution, Shannon. So they just dragged him to the side and left him.

[Ryan Lemond]

Did you see that? They're up against the clock.

[Matt Jones]

They lose army cross.

[Ryan Lemond]

They literally. He. He just was laying. Like, all the action was just right next to him. And he was agonizing in pain.

[Matt Jones]

And they just left him laying there.

[Shannon Ladue]

Only had about a minute and a half. They had to get him off the pitch. They rolled him right over the line

[Matt Jones]

and left him out of here.

[Shannon Ladue]

No, but an England player, like, they're hopping the little wall to celebrate with the crowd, and he gets tripped up and it can't tell if he breaks his arm or his leg, but it's bad. They brought out stretchers and he's out. Out.

[Ryan Lemond]

What half was that? I must have walked.

[Shannon Ladue]

It was right after it ended. They went to, like, celebrate with their crowd, and they're just not even that big of a wall. And, like, one of them hops it, another hops up. Oh, he got hurt. Yeah. They had to bring security to put around him as they brought the stretchers out.

[Caller (various callers)]

Wow.

[Matt Jones]

Okay, well, he's out. We're going to talk about the usa. Obviously, some controversy, but excitement, games tonight.

[Ryan Lemond]

Are you going to watch the game tonight, Shannon?

[Drew Franklin]

I'm going to watch a little.

[Boost Mobile Advertiser]

Yeah.

[Drew Franklin]

We're getting, you know What? Round of 16 as we get closer. I'm getting just a little bit more interested slightly.

[Matt Jones]

I mean, this is massive tonight.

[Ryan Lemond]

This is like, USA's only made it past the round of 16 once in its history.

[Drew Franklin]

I know the name of one player now who? Baligan.

[Matt Jones]

We're going to talk about Baligan.

[Drew Franklin]

Yeah.

[Matt Jones]

And more. And you could tell me if that sound is actually there. We will take a break. It's KSR here. There's actually a lot of UK basketball today, too. We'll be right back.

[Boost Mobile Advertiser]

He's dribbling the ball with everything on the line. He's driving down the pitch. He's facing price hikes and cuts past him. Carrier contracts, tries to block him. Oh, he leaves him in the dust. He's at the edge of the box. He cuts past the nonstop group chat, trash talk. He clears on goal. He shoots. No unlimited data for $25 a month forever.

It was cool. Is this better or worse than Country Roads?

[Drew Franklin]

Worse. I mean, I like the song better, but I mean I don't feel like this is a better party song.

[Matt Jones]

Party in the usa Switch.

[Drew Franklin]

It kind of a downer song.

[Matt Jones]

Well, but Country Roads is kind of a downer song.

[Drew Franklin]

No, I feel like it's upbeat. Right.

[Ryan Lemond]

Okay.

[Drew Franklin]

You know, it's more happy.

[Matt Jones]

Yeah. Well, apparently the announcer said during the thing that when Mexico scores, they have to put umbrellas over their head because people throw so much beer in the air.

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah, throwing beer. They also threw a lot of beer on the field during the red card. I mean they were. They're an active group last night.

[Matt Jones]

Yeah, I'm with you. If I was a British, I'd have been like, how do I get out of here? Okay, so lot of people writing saying they hear it. One person says, matt, when I go in there, it's so bad, I have to run in the door.

[Shannon Ladue]

This is crazy.

[Drew Franklin]

That's dramatic.

[Shannon Ladue]

Never heard it.

[Ryan Lemond]

Never been over there a thousand times.

[Shannon Ladue]

I used to work in there.

[Matt Jones]

One person says, you all won't be able to hear it because you're old, but Mario will fall on the ground in pain.

[Shannon Ladue]

That big ears. I can hear.

[Matt Jones]

You and I both have big ears. We should be able to hear this.

[Shannon Ladue]

I'm excited to see Mar.

[Caller (various callers)]

All right.

[Matt Jones]

Apparently it's used to. For mosquitoes. They're saying okay to keep them away.

[Shannon Ladue]

I feel like I'm like, do I need to get my hearing checked?

[Caller (various callers)]

If.

[Shannon Ladue]

If I can't hear?

[Matt Jones]

You might have a hearing loss. Go ahead. You probably have a hearing loss. Exactly right.

[Ryan Lemond]

Uh, all right, so let's talk about the.

[Matt Jones]

We'll go the phones in a minute. 85928, 02287. Let's talk about the US game. So we lost Baligan to. To a red card that shouldn't have been a red card. And now it looks like Donald Trump got involved.

[Ryan Lemond]

By the way, I predicted this.

[Matt Jones]

If you were listening to ESPN when the news broke, I said, donald Trump is going to take credit. And he did. It turns out like he. It looks like he made a call. Now, Belgium this morning has filed appeal, and they're going to have a hearing this morning. So I guess there's still a chance it could go back the other way. Uh, what are your thoughts on all this?

[Shannon Ladue]

Obviously, I loved it. That was such a bull crap call. It shouldn't have happened.

[Matt Jones]

Yeah. As a starting point, he probably should have never got.

[Shannon Ladue]

Everyone is pretty much in agreement. Not just the Americans. Everyone's in agreement. That shouldn't have happen happened. You know, FIFA, FIFA is one of the most corrupt organizations on the planet. I'm glad that we're benefiting. We're on the good side of their corruption because they have a rule where you can't do this.

[Matt Jones]

I love that they specifically have a rule that you cannot do exactly what they do.

[Shannon Ladue]

So I love that we're on the good side of their corruption and that they're changing it.

[Ryan Lemond]

So, like, I consider this similar to

[Matt Jones]

when you get a call in college basketball and you know the calls wrong, Shannon. And you just go, well, keep playing.

[Drew Franklin]

But they are the ncaa. They never go back and overturn it. Like they're doing. This is kind of like it's crazy that they're doing it. Yeah.

[Matt Jones]

My view is very simple. He should have been playing anyway.

[Ryan Lemond]

It is clear that this is, like, corrupt.

[Matt Jones]

But you know what? This time, it's on our side, and

[Ryan Lemond]

it is what it is.

[Matt Jones]

You know what?

[Ryan Lemond]

If I was Belgium, I'd be mad.

[Shannon Ladue]

They're very mad.

[Ryan Lemond]

If I was the rest of the world, I'd be mad. But, like, I'm not. I'm America.

[Matt Jones]

And I'm so. I'm glad we. I'm glad he's playing now. We gotta win, though. You know, you gotta win at this point.

[Shannon Ladue]

It's good, that home field advantage, workforce. If it's not in America, they probably

[Ryan Lemond]

don't do any other country.

[Matt Jones]

He's not playing.

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah, but you're right. We have to finish the job. Especially we're probably a little bit of the bad guys now to the rest of the field.

[Ryan Lemond]

And if we weren't already this on Twitter, like, for people like me who

[Matt Jones]

do not like Trump, this is not the time to complain about Trump's corruption, complain about the $2.2 billion he's gotten in the last year. You could complain about that.

[Ryan Lemond]

But this actually helps us. So let's just let this one go.

[Shannon Ladue]

That's my president. Yeah.

[Caller (various callers)]

Okay.

[Shannon Ladue]

Made soccer great again.

[Drew Franklin]

Weekend and everything. It was perfect.

[Lowe's Advertiser]

Yes.

[Drew Franklin]

We deserve.

[Ryan Lemond]

So you know what?

[Matt Jones]

It is what it is. But if I were Belgian, I'd be upset. And the Bell seemed pretty upset.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah.

[Shannon Ladue]

I mean, imagine we're in the Final Four and, you know, we're playing Duke and their best players out, but the day before, they're like, you know what? We're going to put them back in. We would be pretty upset.

[Matt Jones]

Yeah. And the game was on Duke's campus. You know, it would be.

[Shannon Ladue]

Coach K calls the NCAA and gets it fixed.

[Ryan Lemond]

So the game is tonight.

[Matt Jones]

I am going to make the claim

[Ryan Lemond]

that this is probably, in my lifetime,

[Matt Jones]

one of the bigger patriotic US Sporting events ever.

[Ryan Lemond]

I was trying to think of. Can you think of a time, I'm sure people older than me would say

[Matt Jones]

the US Hockey game, but, like, I wasn't. I wasn't really. I was alive, but I didn't know what was going on.

[Ryan Lemond]

Can you think of a time that

[Matt Jones]

America has been more excited for an American sporting event than this?

[Shannon Ladue]

Not really. I thought about, like, you know, Olympic basketball. We're so good.

[Caller (various callers)]

We're going to win.

[Shannon Ladue]

It would be fun to have this. But we rarely, if ever, have anything like this in Olympic basketball.

[Matt Jones]

France and basketball this year.

[Ryan Lemond]

That was very exciting. But the game is like at 8 in the morning and I don't know

[Matt Jones]

how much a lot of people weren't even awake.

[Ryan Lemond]

This is prime time. It's in our country.

[Shannon Ladue]

We're not an underdog in the match, but we're a big underdog in the sport. Like, we've never really had success.

[Ryan Lemond]

Can you think of one, Shannon, where there's been a game where America was playing?

[Drew Franklin]

No, I mean, not like Team America, but I mean, maybe like after 9, 11, like the first Yankees game or something like that. Everybody was watching.

[Ryan Lemond]

Now, that was a huge deal, but

[Drew Franklin]

it was very patriotic.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah, but it wasn't an American team playing. I just think this is like, we're not used to this. Like when we, when I used to see videos or even when I went to soccer and people are crying and stuff. We've not really had this and we're having it here. And I think that's really kind of fascinating because we've, we've not done this. Like, when you see, when you saw this, the, the pictures in Mexico yesterday, that's kind of normal for them. We've never really had that. And now we're going to have it tonight.

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah, I mean, we've had like Gold Cups and stuff, but the rest of the casual sports fans don't get into that.

[Ryan Lemond]

Didn't know when those games were. My mom knows tonight.

[Shannon Ladue]

Everyone I know, except maybe Shannon Ryan

[Ryan Lemond]

are locked in tonight is coming to my house and was like, we're going to. We can watch it tonight. Like, she's not. She didn't know the Gold Cup. This is the only time that's ever happened.

[Shannon Ladue]

And Seattle is a great place to have it. They're going to be going absolutely crazy and, well, they'll be going crazy everywhere. But in that city, in that stadium, we might rival Mexico City's crowd last night.

[Ryan Lemond]

So it's, it's, it's, it's gonna be neat because it's going to be passionate. I mean, did you see the pictures at Fourth street yesterday, Shannon, of the Mexico game?

[Caller (various callers)]

No.

[Drew Franklin]

No. Fourth street live again.

[Ryan Lemond]

Well, now it's going to be like that tonight for the USA is Lexington. Have a place.

[Drew Franklin]

I don't know.

[Ryan Lemond]

Okay, turn that off.

[Matt Jones]

Turn that off.

[Drew Franklin]

Come on.

[Matt Jones]

It's. No, I'm gonna sing country fired up.

[Shannon Ladue]

I'll take my hat off.

[Matt Jones]

All right. We'll be right back.

[American Medical Association Advertiser]

Ksr, TJ Smith, personal injury attorney. Call tj.

[Matt Jones]

He'll make him pay.

[Drew Franklin]

Now, more of Kentucky Sports Radio, presented by Stockton Mortgage.

[Matt Jones]

Here's Matt Jones welcome back, techie Sports radio. Alright, so all of you there, people writing me going, you know, FIFA has ruled 27.

[Ryan Lemond]

That's.

[Matt Jones]

First of all, you don't know what FIFA rules are. You just learned that and you probably saw it in a tweet.

[Ryan Lemond]

The reality is they've never done this

[Matt Jones]

before during a match now or during the tournament. They did it for Ronaldo before the tournament and they've done that before, but never during the tournament.

[Ryan Lemond]

I don't care. Look, can we all just acknowledge it was probably corrupt.

[Shannon Ladue]

24 hours.

[Ryan Lemond]

Probably corrupt. 24 hours for the game.

[Matt Jones]

Like they could have done it four days ago.

[Ryan Lemond]

They did 24 hours for the game. It was probably corrupt. That's okay, though. Just acknowledge. Thank you.

[Matt Jones]

Corruptness.

[Shannon Ladue]

I'm sure Wisconsin fans enjoyed that shot clock violation.

[Matt Jones]

Exactly. You don't have to sit there and go, actually, shot clocks do not know it was a violation. Right. It was about. I just saw the video of that English guy breaking his arm to be going through.

[Shannon Ladue]

And then you're out.

[Ryan Lemond]

That was.

[Matt Jones]

That was abs. That's awful. Real quick, what do we make of Kirk Crease?

[Shannon Ladue]

You know, I've been in a little bit of communication with her, getting ready for tbt. I was wondering actually delete that.

[Ryan Lemond]

As your attorney, it's been.

[Matt Jones]

It's been strictly about basketball. We needed to not have what.

[Shannon Ladue]

It's been strictly about basketball, you know,

[Ryan Lemond]

would you say that.

[Shannon Ladue]

What's about basketball? I think I have proof. I was hoping to have him on the show before tbt while you're out. Probably not just he's been making his rounds on other appearances. Like, he seemed fired up, ready to go back in Lexington. Been hanging out with 20, promoting it. This was just shocking that.

[Matt Jones]

This was shocking. And let me say, I had like a double shock. All of a sudden I have somebody go, what a report by Jack Pilgrim. And my heart drops a little bit. Oh, because he was the one that reported.

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah.

[Ryan Lemond]

So I called him.

[Matt Jones]

This is what you do, Shannon, when you have trust in people. I called Jack and said, are you sure? And he goes, I'm 1000% sure.

[Drew Franklin]

Yep.

[Matt Jones]

And I was like, okay, then I'll. But you know when you're talking about federal indictment and like, gotta be.

[Shannon Ladue]

Newspapers all over picked up ksr.

[Ryan Lemond]

And yes, we were cited for every. Like, no one else had it.

[Caller (various callers)]

Good work.

[Matt Jones]

Apparently, according to some folks who wrote me, he was arrested Friday, like at a bank here in town, from what I hear. You know, I can't. I'm not 1000%, but that was just what people were saying. He was in jail in Lexington. TV stations confirmed he was in jail. Jack's reporting is federal indictment for fraud. Going back to his days at West Virginia. No idea what that means.

[Ryan Lemond]

I would guess we'll probably figure out today because he's going to be extradited today.

[Matt Jones]

He had a long week, so he was just at the Fayette county jail all week. And then we'll get extradited. But fraud, that's a lot now.

[Shannon Ladue]

And when the FBI's involved, it's not small time.

[Ryan Lemond]

When the FBI's involved, it ain't a joke.

[Matt Jones]

Right. Um.

[Ryan Lemond]

People have been trying to guess like

[Matt Jones]

that it might have been gambling.

[Ryan Lemond]

I have no idea.

[Matt Jones]

Like, I. I haven't seen or heard anything like that. I will not. I don't want to go into details, but you and I both know, Drew, there have been whispers about something that Kerr would do involving tickets for a long time, and it was one of those things that you didn't know, so you didn't talk about. But you can't help but wonder when you hear this if that was something.

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah, the gambling thing took off. I saw a screenshot where somebody asked AI you can't use AI for, like, search for something like this for something that's just happened because it'll just. It'll make something up to have an answer for you. I think that's where it originated. Could turn out being that.

[Matt Jones]

And I don't think that mug shot was correct either. I think that was fake.

[Ryan Lemond]

The mug shot that's getting sent around.

[Matt Jones]

I don't think that's right. I think that's made up.

[Shannon Ladue]

Well, regardless, I don't know what he did, but as we said, with the FBI, get involved for fraud, this looks to be major, major, major trouble.

[Matt Jones]

We'll probably find out more today. But quite. I mean, quite a situation, you know, you can't help but go, okay, well, he played for Kentucky. Is this going to involve. From what we understand, it all goes back to things from West Virginia.

[Shannon Ladue]

That's why they're sending them back there.

[Matt Jones]

So that at least is good. That was a West Virginia team, Shannon, by the way, that went 9 and 23, the one he was on. So just keep that in mind.

[Shannon Ladue]

They had all kinds of other side stories, too. It was wild.

[Matt Jones]

They've had, like four or five people get in trouble from that school, from that team. That might be one where they do

[Shannon Ladue]

a documentary one Is that Huggins last year, too.

[Matt Jones]

So. So. So anyway, we will see, but we

[Shannon Ladue]

need a guard in tbt.

[Matt Jones]

Now we do.

[Shannon Ladue]

Mario, who we were placed.

[Matt Jones]

He's not going. You're the gm. He's not going to play anymore for tbt. Do you have any other.

[Shannon Ladue]

I think it's fair to say he's out.

[Matt Jones]

I think. I think it's fair to say he's questionable with federal indictment.

[Shannon Ladue]

But what a. I mean, of all the headlines to get fourth of July weekend. Who could have seen that coming? A uk, Former UK player getting involved with the fba.

[Matt Jones]

If you had told me someone from the last five years had a federal indictment, would he have been on your

[Drew Franklin]

short list

[Ryan Lemond]

if you told me it was fraud?

[Matt Jones]

Yes. I think that might have been my first guess. And I can't believe you just said I've been in communication with him.

[Shannon Ladue]

Not since the arrest. Innocent stuff. I'll tweet the. I'll tweet the screenshot.

[Caller (various callers)]

Jacob.

[Matt Jones]

Go ahead, Jake.

[Shannon Ladue]

Zero fraud on my end.

[Caller (various callers)]

Hey, so talking about the Joseph Best with the high pitch.

[Matt Jones]

Yes.

[Caller (various callers)]

I'm pretty sure it's just a H thing. So I would be shocked if Mario doesn't hear it.

[Matt Jones]

Well, now if Mario doesn't hear it, he's got real problems.

[Ryan Lemond]

Can you hear it when you're there, Mario?

[Caller (various callers)]

He probably needs to be checked.

[Ryan Lemond]

Jacob, can you hear it?

[Caller (various callers)]

I've not been there in a couple years. I'm 34 now. I could hear it two years ago. I don't know if I could hear it now.

[Shannon Ladue]

I was like 20 when I worked there every day and never heard it.

[Ryan Lemond]

I don't understand. I'm amazing how many people say they do here, but then there's a lot of people that say they don't. Maybe this is the difference.

[Matt Jones]

I appreciate the call in humanity is whether or not you can hear the Joseph Beth high pitched.

[Drew Franklin]

Do they have that many mosquitoes? They have to do this. I mean, I would think a bug zapper would be just fine. Maybe some citronella. No.

[Ryan Lemond]

So what somebody said in the Reddit

[Matt Jones]

thread was the way that the little thing is situated. I'm gonna say rotunda. They collect up in the top of it.

[Drew Franklin]

Oh, that keeps them away.

[Matt Jones]

And that will keep them away. That's what they. Now again, that's what some random person said on Reddit. I'm not saying that's true. I do not know.

[Shannon Ladue]

I believe them.

[Matt Jones]

Well, I mean, they did say this and I thought they were lying about that. And it sounds like people say works.

[Shannon Ladue]

I'm excited to get out there.

[Matt Jones]

I'm excited.

[Shannon Ladue]

I'm gonna listen. As far As I can.

[Matt Jones]

I'm to watch Mario just be in agony. Pete. Go ahead. Pete.

[Ryan Lemond]

Pete.

[Caller (various callers)]

Hey, guys, what's up?

Hey.

Back in the 90s, malls and big shopping areas when, when the skateboard craze really took off and those kids were hitting any handrail they could find and didn't care, people were walking around and stuff like that. A lot of those mall owners put out speakers, loudspeakers out the front of the mall that played a high frequency that you, you, you lose the ability to hear it. But you don't have to be necessarily that old. I mean, like 20 or, you know, 19, 20, 21, you, you lose it.

[Matt Jones]

So you're saying children can hear it, but not adults.

[Drew Franklin]

Yes.

[Caller (various callers)]

Huh. I'm not sure about the one that Joseph Beth.

But now.

But that was, that was a story. And because people, some people were saying what. It's unethical. And some people were saying, but does it damage their hearing? I mean, there was a big deal back, back years ago because these guys were blasting this ultra high frequency to keep kids away and skateboarders away, and

[Drew Franklin]

you should find one.

[Caller (various callers)]

And everybody else walking through couldn't.

[Shannon Ladue]

Couldn't hear it.

[Matt Jones]

But I appreciate the call. We need to find a skateboarder to, to, to go and test it for us. People are saying the 99 World Women's World cup was a very. I, I.

[Ryan Lemond]

Even the one. Remember when we had the, when the bar. We did a women's World cup run

[Matt Jones]

and, and people were really into it too. But I remember that 99, when.

[Ryan Lemond]

That's when the woman took her shirt

[Shannon Ladue]

off slid after they get in the pk.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah.

[Matt Jones]

She took her shirt off. Her name, you know, Brandy Chastain.

[Caller (various callers)]

Boom.

[Shannon Ladue]

Good call.

[Matt Jones]

How about that memory?

[Shannon Ladue]

Iconic moment in US Sports.

[Matt Jones]

Yes.

[Ryan Lemond]

You think that would be controversial now

[Matt Jones]

that she took her shirt off, like back then, and I don't remember it being controversial, but people get more worked up about things now.

[Shannon Ladue]

No, I don't think so.

[Caller (various callers)]

Jeff.

[Shannon Ladue]

Sports brawn was all right.

[Matt Jones]

Yeah. His family, I do remember that. That's probably the biggest one. I think we were playing China maybe in that game. Mike. Go ahead, Mike. Hey, Matt, what's up?

[Caller (various callers)]

Hey. So a couple. I mean, it was just last. I mean, last year, I guess, or six months ago, we did the USA Hockey. That was a pretty big U.S. it was.

[Ryan Lemond]

But that was also in the morning. Like, it was on a. I think went in on a Sunday morning. Like, I, I do think that was exciting.

[Matt Jones]

And a lot of people watched it.

[Ryan Lemond]

I don't know that it had the

[Matt Jones]

build up that this one did. Right. Because it was, you know, it was in. It was in Italy. So it was a different time of day and all that kind of stuff.

[Caller (various callers)]

Yeah, well, I mean, I found it very, very compelling.

[Matt Jones]

Yes.

[Caller (various callers)]

It was a huge celebration on it. So the other part is. Yeah, the other part. Let's. Let's not act like FIFA isn't a corrupt organization all the way.

[Matt Jones]

I went to prison a few years ago. I mean, I think. I think we.

[Caller (various callers)]

Yeah,

[Matt Jones]

yeah. It's maybe the most corrupt organization.

[Caller (various callers)]

Right. And then also, in fairness, let's not act like it was a really good call or a legitimate wasn't.

[Ryan Lemond]

I'm on the side.

[Caller (various callers)]

Should have never had a red card.

[Matt Jones]

I totally agree with that. I appreciate the call.

[Ryan Lemond]

I'm on the side of the right result.

[Matt Jones]

Questionable process. Is that fair to say?

[Shannon Ladue]

Yeah, that should never happen. There's been 30 examples of much worse in this tournament that have gone uncalled.

[Ryan Lemond]

It's just when you quote from, like

[Matt Jones]

Shakespeare, that says something like the worst type of treason is the right result with the wrong reason.

[Shannon Ladue]

Oh, could you quote Bill?

[Drew Franklin]

Very, very philosophical.

[Matt Jones]

I don't remember.

[Shannon Ladue]

Should we put that on a T shirt for tonight?

[Matt Jones]

I don't. And it may not even be Shakespeare. That quote exists. I know it from somewhere. But in this case, it's not for me treason. It's. We have to win.

[Shannon Ladue]

Gotta win now.

[Ryan Lemond]

No, but we just. And we're an underdog. This is a sport where we're an underdog.

[Matt Jones]

Right? We never win.

[Shannon Ladue]

We're, like good at everything.

[Matt Jones]

But this, this is what we're not good at.

[Ryan Lemond]

So this is. If we're gonna cheat this, like if we cheated for the dream team in

[Matt Jones]

basketball, that would not be fair.

[Shannon Ladue]

And if we break through and we play Spain on Friday, people move on. Forget about this. Sorry about your luck, Belgium, but we'll get over it.

[Matt Jones]

What if. What if we win and Baligan scores three goals?

[Shannon Ladue]

Good odds on that. I've already been to score one. Let's do three.

[Matt Jones]

[Caller (various callers)]

Welcome back.

[Matt Jones]

Tech Sports Radio. T.S. eliot. The last act is the greatest treason. To do the right deed for the wrong reason. How about that call T.S.

[Shannon Ladue]

eliot.

[Matt Jones]

In the back of my brain, I don't know how I remember that, but it was something.

[Shannon Ladue]

You big TSLA person. You got more?

[Matt Jones]

No, that's the only.

[Shannon Ladue]

That's the one that's the one that stuck.

[Matt Jones]

You know what's funny is I can remember quotes from, like, 20 years ago, 30, 40 years ago. I can't remember my neighbor's names.

[Drew Franklin]

Well, you know, so when I was.

[Matt Jones]

When I was watching those fireworks, there was a couple that I met, and they introduced me, and they said, hey, these. This couple lives in your neighborhood. And I was like, oh, I definitely want to remember these people.

[Caller (various callers)]

Right?

[Matt Jones]

Because they live in my neighborhood. And they introduced themselves to me. And, you know, sometimes when you do, you just kind of. So then I actually asked them their name again because I was like, I want to remember these people wanted to stick. And 20 seconds later, I'd forgotten it again. And so I couldn't ask them. We can't ask them again. So I look at hubby and I go, okay, what are the names again? I want to remember these people because they live six houses from me. And he was like, I tell you how you can remember this. Their names are Corey and Lee. And you have a friend named Corey Lee.

[Shannon Ladue]

Now you won't forget.

[Matt Jones]

And now will not forget. Shane and I will remember their names forever. Yeah, because they're Corey and they're Lee,

[Ryan Lemond]

and I have a friend named Corey Lee.

[Drew Franklin]

Are Corey and Lee listeners of the show? Because now they know that you couldn't think of their name.

[Matt Jones]

Good point. Maybe shouldn't have said that. Maybe that's like Drew with the phone conversations with Kirk.

[Shannon Ladue]

I keep getting random phone calls from a number I don't have. Saved my trouble.

[Drew Franklin]

I have a few words with you.

[Matt Jones]

That's a good point, Shannon. That might have been a story for the Inside Voice.

[Ryan Lemond]

Yeah, well, Corey, Corey, and Lee. Now you know how important it was

[Matt Jones]

to me to try to remember your name.

[Spinquest Advertiser]

Spin it.

[Shannon Ladue]

If they didn't matter, you'd be like, whatever, I don't need to know their names. You're Actively trying to store it in your brain.

[Ryan Lemond]

And then my friend Corey Lee, now

[Shannon Ladue]

I remember you're not the best with names. There's been many times where you've been like the hey, will you go introduce yourself and get their name?

[Ryan Lemond]

I do it all the time. I can't remember. I can't remember my boss's names.

[Matt Jones]

Like they'll come in here, I've met

[Ryan Lemond]

them many times and I will go, are they listening?

[Matt Jones]

Oh well, some of them got fired.

[Ryan Lemond]

But I would not be able to remember their names.

[Drew Franklin]

So when you meet somebody, it was it Bill Clinton that would say your name back.

[Ryan Lemond]

Bill Clinton.

[Matt Jones]

They said his great like strength was he could remember everyone's name. And you're right. He would meet you and he would. You'd go, I'm Matt. Hello Matt. And they said his brain, that was

[Ryan Lemond]

one of his great political strengths.

[Matt Jones]

He could meet somebody 25 years later, remember their name.

[Shannon Ladue]

That's a good thing to have.

[Ryan Lemond]

It's a great.

[Shannon Ladue]

I'm calling people by their name can go a long way.

[Ryan Lemond]

Looking people in the eye, calling them by their name.

[Matt Jones]

They like it. Or analogizing them to other friends. You have.

[Drew Franklin]

They also like that too.

[Matt Jones]

They like that too. Especially when you're on a radio show and you're right. Right now they're getting text messages going, matt is talking about you.

[Shannon Ladue]

But it's the effort you went to. You could have just gone on with your life and like whatever those two

[Ryan Lemond]

down the street now because Corey Lee.

[Matt Jones]

And now Corey Lee's probably getting text.

[Shannon Ladue]

I know a Corey Lee also is probably texting me.

[Ryan Lemond]

Same Corey Lee.

[Spinquest Advertiser]

Right?

[Shannon Ladue]

Different Corey Lee.

[Matt Jones]

Okay, so we know two Corey Lee's. Donnie. Go ahead, Donnie.

[Donnie]

Hello. How are you guys?

[Caller (various callers)]

Good, good.

[Donnie]

My name is Donnie from London, Kentucky. And I've got two quick things. First of all, I am blind. And this past Father's Day I received probably one of the greatest Father's Day gifts I've ever had in my 64 years of being on this earth. My two sons brought me to KSR Bar and Grill on Thursday before Father's Day. And I got to be there for your guys last broadcast from there. And it was.

[Ryan Lemond]

That was. Well, thank you. That was very.

[Matt Jones]

I think I knew you were there.

[Ryan Lemond]

So that. Yes, that was awesome and glad you

[Matt Jones]

got to be there.

[Donnie]

Yeah, I actually got a picture with you as we were.

[Matt Jones]

I remember that. Yes, I remember that.

[Donnie]

And the second, the second thing, I have never in my life listened to or watched a soccer game until this year. One of my blind friends told me about an app that you can get a FIFA adc. It stands for Audio Descriptive Commentary. And I downloaded that app and what they do, they describe everything. They describe what's going on on the field, what the fans are doing. They even have a segment after the game ends of what the teams are doing, how they're interacting, what's going on, and it is absolutely amazing. So if anybody out there is visually impaired, you can get this from the app Store. It's called FIFA ADC for Audio description Commentary.

[Matt Jones]

That's great, Donnie. Thank you very much and hope that

[Ryan Lemond]

there's probably somebody out there that.

[Matt Jones]

That will be helpful to. Appreciate the call, sir.

[Donnie]

All right. Thanks.

[Matt Jones]

Appreciate it. That is nice.

[Ryan Lemond]

You know, I have. It's funny he said that when I have. I thought about with. Because normally radio broadcasts are different than TV broadcasts, but for the soccer, they've just used the TV broadcast. You know, they don't say what's going

[Matt Jones]

on all the time. I'm glad to hear they do something like that.

[Ryan Lemond]

Brian.

[Matt Jones]

Go ahead, Brian.

[Caller (various callers)]

Yes, I was calling about the being able to hear the different frequencies of sound.

[Matt Jones]

Yes.

[Caller (various callers)]

I'm a retired. I'm a retired teacher, and back several years ago when all the kids started getting cell phones, you. The kids could hear a frequency that older people couldn't. Once you're 18, 19 years old, you lose the ability. So they said to hear that frequency. And the kids would set their phones to that frequency to ring or get a text.

[Ryan Lemond]

Oh, so that you wouldn't know.

[Caller (various callers)]

Yeah, I couldn't hear it. But the kids, every now and then, someone say, tell them, turn that phone off.

[Matt Jones]

Interesting.

[Caller (various callers)]

I didn't have any idea.

[Matt Jones]

Okay. I appreciate the call. That is kind of a sneaky thing those whipper snappers do.

[Shannon Ladue]

Wish I'd known about that trick.

[Matt Jones]

Yeah. Ryan, Go ahead, Ryan.

[Caller (various callers)]

Hey, Matt, I got two quick things for you.

[Matt Jones]

Got about a minute.

[Caller (various callers)]

There's a. There's a chef. His name is Thomas Straker. Looks exactly like Shannon Ladue.

[Drew Franklin]

And the second thing is add it to the list.

[Caller (various callers)]

You need to look him up. He. I mean, looks just like him. Second thing. What about pastor in Baton Rouge that beat the snot out of his neighbor? Have you read about this? No.

[Matt Jones]

Pastor beat the snot out of him. What did he do? What happened?

[Caller (various callers)]

Well, he had snot before and he had none after. You need to go watch the video.

All right.

[Matt Jones]

That. All right, I'll do that during the break. Baton Rouge pastor. Okay. Appreciate the call. I think that was in Ezekiel that you're allowed to beat up your neighbor.

[Drew Franklin]

Beat thy neighbor.

[Matt Jones]
