2:01If you call TJ, he'll make them pay. Ryan and Drew are in Lexington. Shannon is in Louisville. I want to start by sort of apologizing for our two yesterday on KSR because my equipment, which has been my trusty equipment Ryan has worked for 15 years. My little travel thing. In the second hour yesterday started to kind of creep back and forth out and I listened to some of it. It led it to be static. And then by the afternoon we were ready to do cover zero. It just stopped working and made I did here in the second hour. It made it a little bit hard to listen. So I apologize, which is a shame because there were some gold segments was Shannon and Billy getting doomed. But Ryan unfortunately I had to scramble with Billy today. We found the closet for me to do it here in New York and that's where I am. It's kind of sad that little piece of equipment has been through hell and back. It really is. And it's beat up, it's banged up.

3:02Nobody has one. You have the oldest piece of equipment still in this building and it was living and dying with you. But sad to see it crack out. It was the only thing we had that always worked. Right? It worked everywhere we went. I did eight years of national shows like all these local and now I wonder it may just be gone through. It's like a piece of history falling apart here finally. Is this something you might just keep as it keepsake even if it's not working? I don't think you can turn it in. It's like a piece of equipment. It's so old and go you can just just keep it. There's nothing you can do with it. I mean, maybe put on like a shelf at your house like an old frame photo. You know, it's been with you for so long. It's been a part of your life and it shouldn't just be thrown away. You aside, well, nobody cares because it's just a piece of equipment. But Shane and I do feel like it's a part of me. I've carried it all around the globe. I've taken it to Europe. I've taken it everywhere. And now I don't know. Just looking at it yesterday and had a sad look on its face like a pet you needed to put

4:03down. I think you need to just let me retire in the history. Well, it lived a full life. It got to see the world over. Get the hang out in your hot car with the jar pickles. It's been in there for 20 years. It's seen a lot in its life. It has 8.592 8.02027. We're going to make this and ask anything Tuesday. I'd love to hear from you what you thought about the game, the aftermath, Kentucky, the conversations around the country about the cats yesterday. And we also have to talk about what happened with shaded and billy as as more information has come in. But let's start with this. I wanted to get to this yesterday. And I didn't, which drew is a top 25 poll that came out. Now generally speaking, I don't care about top 25 poll. Okay. I don't think it matters. I think it is for the most part irrelevant, but it is a talking point to the extent it matters. It matters more in college football than basketball because when it comes to playoff or even bowls, they consider that a lot more.

5:07And normally Kentucky's not even in a situation where it's even a consideration at any point. But then the poll comes out Monday morning. Texas A&M is ranked 23rd. And I believe Kentucky drew where we the second team out maybe 27th on a 27th. Yes. Okay. So we were four spots below Texas A&M. Now that stuff can happen. You know, it can happen where a team beats another team, but for various reasons, they're still ranked. But in this case, it seems particularly egregious drew because both teams have played three games. Our schedule's been better. And we beat them on their home field. So can is there any rationale giving people the benefit of the doubt? Is there any rationale to put A&M ahead of Kentucky? No, not at all. They're obviously benefiting from the opinion of everyone in the preseason when really everyone's

6:11just guessing. But when the AP made that preseason, poll and put them ninth, that's factored into why they're still above Kentucky, which is unfair, but that's the reality. It is. I mean, the only reason they're ahead is because they were ahead initially, which is almost like we think they're good. Ryan, therefore they are good. And so if they lose, it must have been an upset because we thought they were good. But still, how can you put that team and put the team that just beat them on their home field? How can you put them ahead? I think like what Drew said, they were top 10. That's a big drop to go from top 10 to out of the poll. They just dropped them what, you know, 14 spots there. But if you didn't really watch the game at all, Kentucky just didn't win. They were the better team. They were the better team offensively, defensively special teams. They were the better team. That's why they should be ahead of them. But I know what spot you put them in. Whatever spot you want to put them in, 13, 18, 25, 40th, I don't care.

7:14Shannon, whatever spot you put them in, you have to put Kentucky at least one spot ahead. One would think that would make the most sense. But I'm just trying to figure out if there is any, let's put ourselves in the mind of someone who put, is there anything you can argue that's a reasonable fact, not a heavy dot com fact, but a reasonable fact that says A&M is ahead. No. I mean, the resume is just sitting on the table. Kentucky's is much better. Okay. A&M loss to an unranked team at home. Kentucky lost to what is now the eighth ranked team in the country at home, which brings us Shannon to Lee K. Howard. Yeah. No poop. Boopie. Now I really like Lee K out. A nice guy. I didn't like this guy. Give that. Where's his background, Ryan? You know, you know, he's from New Mexico who's working in Texas before he came here at Lexington. He's been here in Lexington for probably 20 years.

8:14I like him in part because Drew, he takes his middle initial and puts it in his name. Like, none of us do that. I'm gonna start doing that Shannon T. Dude. The T is for the. Yeah, right. Yeah. So Drew, if you were to do that with you, it would be what? Drew. Em. Drew. Em Frank, although I would probably be Andrew M. Franklin. If I were doing that, oh, you would add your full name. Yeah. Drew. Drew. Em sounds weird. I'd be Andrew. Em. Franklin would be reporting on Kentucky sports today. Andrew. Em. Franklin. What would you be right? Ryan K. Lemon. Oh, see that's Ryan K. Lee K. Ryan K. Yeah. They could be a podcast. Yeah. Ryan K. Lemon. The K's Ryan power K. Shannon, they could only have two of them. They can't add a third guess if they do that. Well, that's true. Yeah. Stop there. Stop right there. Yeah. Ryan K. Lemon. And then I would be Matthew H. Jones. I'm surprised people like with your name, don't do that more.

9:19Put a middle initial to identify, distinguish themselves from other Matt Jones. There's so many Matt Jones. But I think like Drew, if your first name's really short, Matt H. Jones, well, this is Lee K. I don't know. I don't think Matt H. works like that. But Lee K. Howard, he put A&M 16th and Kentucky unright. I'm not for sure, but I think he's kind of an A&M fan. Maybe he went to the way. He's a big allegations now. Hang on now. Now Ryan. I read it on He's a happy occasion. Yeah. We were just wondering what he's doing. I was just I was not going to give him any bias. I was going to try to figure out how upset we should be. And you throw in this bomb. You think he's an A&M fan. He there's there's some A&M connection with him. I a lot. I feel like but I can't remember exactly what it is. Drew, that's a strong allegation just to throw in the

10:21home hazard lead to the show. I was just going to talk about what could have gone through his brain to the two. I'm not accusing of anything nefarious. I think he's an A&M fan. Ryan. Well, he worked down there. I can say that he either went there or maybe he covered him. Maybe that's what it is. He covered Texas. There's some sort of Texas A&M connection, I think. Okay. So tell me there's a bias. So you are coming here on the public airwaves and accusing Lee K. Howard of bias. Not at all. Not at all. I'm just drew. It's what it sounded to me like he was doing. Yeah, I'm not a part of that for sure. Sounded like someone was I think Ryan K. Elimin was sound like someone was accusing him of bias. I mean, that's what I'm hearing. That's all I'm hearing from Ryan. We could call him up. I think I've got his number from the Tom Lee K. I'm not I'm texting him right now. Okay. You're going to say that you're on the air saying he's biased. I didn't say he was biased. You said he's a fan. I said he had a wrong A&M connection.

11:24Okay. I have an update from Nick Roush. Okay. Okay. Roush says that Lee K. Howard used to cover Texas tech. Texas tech. Texas. You call him the Texas A&M fan. You called him an Aggie. See, this is why Ryan gets people in trouble. He used to cover Texas tech, which in Ryan's meant drew. He was a Texas A&M fan. It's a big state. They got a lot of schools. And he switched professions. Well, the state of Kentucky only gets one vote. Now, Ryan, you were in the real media. How do they pick the voters? I don't know. I thought they used to have you had to belong to a journalistic society or something to be able to be an A&M. Well, you were a journalist and a TV journalist just like Lee K. Did they ever ask you to be in it? Heck, no, they didn't ask me to be a AP top 25 voters. How did Lee K get it and you didn't Ryan K didn't? I don't know this, but you have to join the Associated Press like become a member of the Associated

12:26Press. But I would assume your TV network was a member of the Associated Press. Yeah, but I wasn't. I wasn't going to pay those annual dues and just devoting up pole. How much were the dues? Well, I'm sure it was more than I had back in those days. So you don't even know what you were turning down. No. Lee says he's getting, he said, are we talking about you on, talking about me on the show because he's getting all kind of texts. Okay. So yeah, not only are we talking about you have made serious accusations about him. Tell him that like Gary Allen says, Shane, and he's going around with making serious accusations. Yes. It's not hard to tell what he's insinuating. Ryan, you need to apologize now. You might need to. I tell you what, Ryan, see if Lee K will come on. Okay. And I apologize because he is our only voice in the AP ballot. The only one. Everyone

13:28else is from elsewhere. And Drew, I could understand when I saw someone from Texas who had A&M ahead of us. Okay. Apparently, maybe he grabbed, he went to West Texas A&M, not Texas A&M. West Texas A&M. Ryan. Ryan. Ryan. I was close. All right. Let's close. So see if you call him his integrity. You call, I need to understand his thinking. Okay. That's all I want to know. I just want to understand his mindset. I'm not going to braid him, Shannon old map might have braid. This is new happy Matt. All right. Happy Matt. Just what's the newest thinking and give him a chance to to fix Shannon Ryan's allegations. Yeah. Cause those are some serious allegations. I stand by. I didn't say he was biased. No, you did. I just said, I said, Texas A&M connection. I thought there was a Texas A&M connection. But I said, but no, wait a minute. I said, why would he do it? And you went,

14:32well, he went to Texas A&M. I think you called him a fan too. Maybe I did. I thought for sure there was this sort of sort of connection. I didn't know I was West Texas A&M. Okay. Which is like saying you're a Kentucky fan because you went Shannon to Western Kentucky. That's right. Exactly. It makes perfect sense. I said Shannon. He's phone number. I got it. All right. We'll call him during the break and we'll see. And then I want to take your calls. Uh, 8592 8 0 2287. What are your thoughts now 48 hours after the game? Are you changing your mindset about Kentucky this season or even in the future because I will tell you for the first time in my life, I'm actually changing my view a little bit about what this program could be. If you've listened to show you've heard me for years, give what I thought was the kind of ceiling for Kentucky football. And I have to tell you, I don't know if I believe that anymore. I'll explain more about it. We'll let Lee K defend himself and Ryan will throw more serious accusations to other against

Maybe this morning? Yes. I think that is. Do we get Lee K? Yes, he's ready to go. He's on the

17:44phone. He is. Okay. 889, 280, 2287. Lee K, how are you? I'm doing great. I'm loving this conversation. I really appreciate this. All right. So let's go through a few things. First of all, what made you decide to use your middle initial in your name? Okay, long story short, I'm the third Lee King K, I, and G powered. My grandpa went by LK, my dad went by Lee. So from the moment I was born, I've been Lee K. So people ask is that your TV name? No, literally everybody in my entire life is always called me. Okay. All right. I like that. You're like my friend, Bob, who's grandfather was a bow and his dad was Bob. So he became Bob. You're like that. You're Lee K. That's right. It's like a permanent nickname you were born with and it's just stuck. Gotcha. Now, how did you become? I've always wondered how people became AP Top 25 voters. How did you get that? You know what, Matt? It's very interesting. I got an email this.

18:47I want to say it was like in May or June from the regional office, the AP regional office out of Tennessee that kind of covers this area of the country. Saying that my name had come up by several people as someone who would be candidate to be Peavoder. I think John Clay, the hero leader, had that job that is sanctioned for years. You can hold on to that job for as many years as you want. Oh, you're going to be like, you're going to be like Mitch McConnell. You'll never leave that office, right? That's right. I mean, they're going to have to pull me out of the office. Especially if I get this kind of feedback. This is great. I didn't volunteer for it. I didn't volunteer at all. It was a pro. They someone approached me a bit and I said, sure. It's like a secret fraternity, Drew. You get asked, you get tapped on the shoulder and then you're an AP voter. He's the big winner now. He has it forever. Now you have it forever. I explain yourself. How did you come to A&M 16 Kentucky unranked

19:48while you cover Kentucky? Yes. I want to get to that. I first have to address the egregious accusation that Ryan Lennon had because I feel like this is most important. Not only did I use to cover Texas Tech, I grew up a Texas tech fan going to Texas Tech Games and hating the University of Texas primarily, but also the Aggies. So absolutely not an Aggies fan. Now I did go to a division two school that is in the A&M system called West Texas A&M, but not at all a Texas A&M fan. Okay. So I'm right. So basically Ryan Lennon is what you said. That's right. That was definitely stretching the truth. Okay. Now 16 and unranked. Yes. So when the woman from Tennessee reached out to me and then there was a phone call that followed up the email and she kind of went over the criteria for being a voter. And she talked about you have to evaluate your own team because you're going to be identified as not only a Kentucky voter, but someone who

20:50represents the University of Kentucky that covers that team. And she made it very clear that you have to be more of a critic of your own team or else you're going to be accused of biases. Like if I was voting with my heart, I would have put Kentucky in my preseason top 25 poll at number 15, you know, something like that. So that was in the back to my mind. I'll give you 16 is probably a little high for. Yeah. I mean, you had an you had an M rank higher than any other voter in the poll. Right. Well, one other one other person had him higher. But to me, the another part of the kind of evaluation thing was they asked that you that you don't make any knee jerk reactions based on any singular game. You have to consider the body of work as a whole. So in my mind, I think the best way to gain perspective, I guess in anything in life is to kind of put your shoes your feet in the other person's shoes. And my mind if Kentucky was ranked number nine,

21:50coming into the poll or coming into the game in the polls and they lost one game, you wouldn't want to see them completely unranked. Is that the only reason they're ranked number nine is because people just decided they were number nine. It hadn't done anything to be awarded number nine. It was just people's conception in the air that they were number nine. So that makes it a little different. I would agree if we were like 20 games into the season. But like, they just were number nine because people said they were number nine. Right. And you're right, Matt. The preseason poll is just an educated guess based on pasties and results and incoming rosters. I mean, that's all it is. Also, this is another point that I thought was important. If you're someone that believes, I'm not saying you are, but if you're a fan that believes that Texas A&M should go from nine to completely unranked, then in my mind, what you're almost devaluing Kentucky's wind, you're saying Kentucky beat a team that shouldn't

22:53even deserve to be ranked. In my mind, I thought Kentucky went down to college station and beat a really good ranked A&M team and was the better team that day. And you get into a tricky situation. Now, for the record, I had Kentucky 27. I should point that out. But would you do what you have to do it again? I just got like a minute and a half left. If you can do it again, do you think that when a team with the same record beats another one on their field? Just by that virtue, they should be ranked ahead of them. See, that's tough. If I did it again, I would probably put A&M in the 20s and Kentucky in around 20, I mean, around 25 or so too. You still put them ahead of me. But you still wouldn't put them ahead of me. Only because of the Alabama second half, that second half of the Alabama game is what didn't have them in. And I'll get one more thing in. When I talked, I did a sit down interview with Wilstein right before the season started. And Will and I talked about the AP vote. And I said,

23:56man, I would love to get in there and vote for you. And he looked at me and he smiled and he goes, don't be doing me any favors. I don't want any free handouts. So that was in that was in back to my mind. I think Kentucky will get in there. Like I said, there were 27 in my poll. You don't see that because you only see the top 25. I've got them right on the doorstep. But that's yeah, that's kind of where I value what it is. So you, I think and you know, I love you, Lee Kay, but you're staying in firm on A&M ahead of Kentucky. I don't know that it will end up being that way. But But after we based on one, after week three, I've got to consider three games and not one game. Okay. Is that makes sense? No, but I appreciate you. I love it. I love it. I love it. This is great. I'll do this every week. I just wanted to hear your explanation just because I get what you're saying. But at the end of the day, A&M really hasn't accomplished anything either. And we played them on their field. And we won.

25:01So I just don't know how to me. It's like that simple. And I, and this, this may not make sense, Matt. But like, I think Kentucky's a better team than A&M. So like, well, why are they not ranked ahead? Well, it has to do with, it has to do with an entire season's body of work and not necessarily head to head. Like for instance, go to Dame. You know, do something like that. Like, it's not only that one is you get to get text by yourself. It also wants you to correct Ryan because Ryan gets out here and just lies about people. And I don't think it's good. And sometimes he needs to be checked up. He does. And anytime you guys want to talk to the poll, you can get me to call. Thank you. Okay. Appreciate it. He's a good sport. Thank you. Thank you. To that. Absolutely. Yeah. Yeah. He didn't say he's crying after the loss. T.J. Smith, personal injury attorney called T.J. He'll make him pay. Now more Kentucky sports radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Here's Matt Jones. It's a good, uh, good pool of a song. Shannon. If I'm nine, two eight, oh, twenty two eighty seven, you're fine.

26:05Ryan, our phones are listening to us. I get on Twitter right after that conversation. Leake first post that comes up is somebody talking about how people get to be picked as AP voters. That's not what it is. There's no way that's a coincidence. No way. No way. That that that is living proof to me that your phones listen to you. And Drew, we should be able to take our phones to court because they shouldn't be spying on me like that. I can't even believe that they still deny it. It's so obvious at this point. I sometimes I go to Google and I'm about to type something and it likes suggested. I don't know how they pull that off. I haven't set it out loud. I'm thinking it. But they're in our heads. Yes. That movie that's coming out, you know, they're doing another movie, Shannon of the Zuckerberg stuff. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if it'll be good or not, but I think the premise is going to be like they know everything and they know they know everything and they're trying to get make it worse. And there's no doubt about that. Like every every device that you have is listening to you. And at first, I think that I kind of sounded like the crazy person because I've been saying this

27:07for years, like I'm a conspiracy. I'm convinced. I mean, you say one thing out loud and you looked at on your phone is the first thing on Facebook. Now, I'm convinced you're correct. Take 5.92802287. Thanks to Lee Kay for calling in. Got some insight as to how that stuff works. Who's up first? Let's go to Joseph. Joseph. Go ahead, Joseph. Hey, Matt, I appreciate you taking my call. I had a point in a question real quick about football. My point was, you know, we that was a huge win for us over Texas saying him, obviously, but I think it came also at the right time on the schedule. Yes. Because a lot of times when you beat those teams, you have you kind of lay an egg the next week. And we're lucky that we're getting South Alabama instead of like South Carolina. And their backup quarterback drew. Isn't that right? Aren't their their starter is out South Alabama? Correct. Could be looking at a backup on Saturday. Yeah. So I mean, that's even better. You're getting a bad team with a backup quarterback. I agree with you, Joseph. Perfect time to

28:12not have a letdown. Hopefully. Now for my question, one of the seat, what did you and Drew and all y'all guys to to reevaluate what you think the record's going to be at the end of the year? Well, we did this yesterday. I appreciate the call. And we all kind of were in the same ballpark. So let me just alter the question a little bit right. Let's take the question of ceiling of the program saying the next three years. All right. We kind of always thought that this best seasons stoops had that nine and three years. We're kind of the peak it could be. Do you now think the peak can be better than that? I don't know if I'm there yet. I mean, I definitely think it can get there. Go back to a nine and three season, but to go take that year, but I'm saying over the next few years. Yeah. Just the nature of the beast with your schedule every year. So it's so hard. It'd be, you know, tough to win. Oh, ten and two. And that kind of no, you don't have that confidence. I'm not there yet. All right. What about you, Drew?

29:15I think they can have another 10 win season, but it's also we got to remember stoops never had a nine game schedule, except for the 2020 year. So he had three built in wins. It's like he naturally had a head start on Stein. So even if Stein gets to that 10 win, it'll be more impressive when he does it. So in some ways, the number might look the same, but you're going a little farther than that would make a playoff these days. Can I read you Shannon next year's SEC schedule? Yeah. Yeah, let's go. I think it's a lot more doable. Okay. Think about what it is this year. Yeah. At Oklahoma at A&M Alabama at home, LSU at home. Here's what it is next year. Home opponents South Carolina Tennessee Auburn, Georgia Mississippi State. You could look at that preseason and say, except the Georgia game, we should we could be favored in all of those, depending on what you bring back. Right? Yeah. South Carolina, Tennessee Auburn, Georgia, Mississippi State, road games at Florida at Arkansas at Ole Miss at Texas. I mean,

30:27that's not nearly as bad. Right? No, not at all, especially with one of the four road games being Arkansas. I mean, they're a dumpster fire and probably won't get that fixed by next season. So you could almost count on having a road win, which is unique. And then heck, two weeks from now South Carolina, we could be looking at a new coach next year. You know, Tennessee's Tennessee and Florida would be good. Other than that, Mississippi State, we know what they'll look like. Auburn's going to lose its whole roster. Yeah. Auburn, I like the higher they made, but they're still in a rebuild. I love next year's schedule. I think next year's schedule is as getable. And if you look at Kentucky schedule in 28, the schedule is the same teams we play this year. And in 29, it's the same teams we play next year. It's a four year rotation. Right. My point being that I think Kentucky got a weird draw in the sense of we got this year and in 2028, a really hard draw. But then in 27 and 29, I actually think we're in for SEC standards. We got kind of an easy draw. I mean, you look at

31:32that schedule next year in the only game that seems like that's going to be really hard to win. Is that Texas? So I don't know. I actually think that gives me some degree of confidence that you could hit a higher ceiling next year. It does. You know, you take out the Georgia and Texas game. Every other game, you feel like you got at least a puncher's chance going into the game. Yes. The home schedule that year with, you know, like Drew said, South Carolina could be looking at a new coach, Auburn. You got to beat them. Mississippi State's playing kind of playing up and down. You knock off Tennessee at home and you've got four win four home wins. Next year, you avoid LSU, Alabama, A&M. That's pretty good to avoid in a year. Who's next? It's good to Brian. Brian, go ahead, Brian. Hey, how you doing? Good. Hey, I was just wanting to call in. I didn't have time to call on the pre show, but I called on Thursday and I had asked if they thought I should go to that Ole Miss at LSU game. And I just want to say I appreciate the advice because I decided to go last

32:34minute. I left over here. Pearl Mississippi about 2 p.m. made it an offshore about 544. And I found a last minute ticket that was $1,500 priced at 300. And I set right behind the Ole Miss bench. Greatest time in my life. Well, when you said you got there about 544, that's a very specific time to be about. Oh, yeah, it was around 545 47 around there. By the time I got into the stadium, man, you choose very specific numbers to estimate. Yeah, just a little bit. I was going based off the time I seen on the clock, but by the time I made in the stadium, I think it was like five minutes left in the... So how was it? Was it as loud as it seemed like on television? Oh, yeah, it was way louder than it seemed like on television. Like, I honestly never been to a stadium that was rocking like that and I've been to good amount of calls for bogeymas. That's awesome. I'm glad you went and I hope you had a good time.

33:39Oh, yeah, yes, sir. Go catch. Okay, I like a person that's just like down to the minute. Like, if you're going to meet me at 544, you better be there at 544. That's exactly right down to the minute. I respect that. I left about to got there about 544. Yep. That's just an interesting way to say something. What's next? Let's go to Kentucky Joe. Oh, come on. 859-288-0-2287-Joe. Yeah. Been a while. It has. How was that? Been a long while. Okay. Well, I've been sick. Okay. Well, I hope you get better. Did you enjoy the game? If I along with somebody else, I should win. I'm a hurtful feeling. I actually picked a UK to win. But that hurt my feelings. Sounds like you're a good prognosticator. Oh, you had Nick Rouse and I saw the site. You know, you're all were trying to figure out.

34:41Hey, Kentucky is a good team. I'm not going to do a song today unless you want me to do. But, uh, I'm a man. I'm a big 111. Why? Are you going to work in a 1? Yes. Yeah. Oh, why not? Who's your favorite player, Joe? I'll tell you. Yeah, I like Willie Roderick. It's uh, you do? No, I know. I know. I'll tell you. I like Derby. He drops the pass and then he comes back and makes a war for moves. We score that such. Yeah, I'm going to say Derby. Hey, so I just think the team, a man, a man, this team is loaded. This team plays, plays the game like a third quarter. Kentucky can beat all the Texas, Gargies and all the other teams. The big one. Derby is the kind of name that a man could make a song about. So why don't you think about that and maybe you could do it before the South Carolina game just to give the team some

35:45motivation? I love to do that. What would that come on? Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if you let's go far. Hey, Sean, thank you. Give me a nod. Yeah. Okay, that's right. Well, that song exists. It wasn't a bad bit like you could maybe do your own remix of it. Right, right? Well, I, I maybe, maybe mention State Street in there too. What's your song? You have artistic control. All right. We'll talk to you before the South Carolina game is your skin. Take care. I'll tell you something. Sores that don't heal or new new growth or spots that don't look healthy go to the Kentucky skin cancer center, they're here to take care of you, they'll check you out, make sure everything's okay.

Shannon was glowing the other day to 708 422, 1999, Kentucky skin cancer center, where you're more than just a patient, you're family.

38:47Drew, come on, Darby. Let's go party. Oh, yeah. I like it. I could hear Kentucky Joe singing this. Yeah. I've been calling it the Kentucky Darby when he goes and gets along run is good. Yeah, I like it. There was a guy on Twitter that I saw say it first. Maybe somebody said it before him. But, uh, I don't know. I'm not sure if he's going to be here. Somebody said it before him. But, uh, I like that. I think that's really, you know, when he gets a big run, it's the Kentucky Darby. I enjoy. Where Darby hats? Yeah. That's. That's so many ways you could do it with the, with, uh, Darby. He, man, I hope he ends up being somebody that stays here the whole time. Because if so, he'll be, like he'll be beloved at this place. And he's a, just an electric athlete. One person says on the text machine, 772, 774, 5254, Matt, are you okay? That was being way too kind to Joe for usual for you.

39:49That's not fair, Ryan. I'm nice to Kentucky Joe. Well, especially when he said he'd been sick for a while. I don't get to tell you immediately. And I'm softened up. No, I'm in a good mood. Shannon sometimes you're in a good mood, right? Yeah. I'm in a good mood even though I will say on my walk here to work today, Trump is here. And I've never seen a long, I guess he's going to the UN. So not only is he here, but all the leaders of all the other countries or whatever are here. Oh my. So it's just people everywhere in traffic and like motorcades. I saw the Trump motorcade it went by. I bet it had, I bet it had Shannon 75 cars. Wow. Which is crazy. But I mean, I get it. You're in like, you're in probably the biggest city. Well, you are in the biggest city with all these people. I get it. But it's just it was just a circus out there today. So 75 cars is his, do they try to confuse you as to what car he is in? Where do you think that if it's a 75 car parade, where's the president?

40:55Is he in the middle, the back, the front, all the cars look the same. Is that the point Drew? You don't know which one it is. Yeah, probably not the same one ever. Same time front one day back next, you got to keep rotating. If you were in charge of the secret service, Ryan, where would you put them in the 75 car parade? Yeah, it can't be the obvious. It can't be in the front, the middle or the back. It's kind of got to be off to the side a little bit somewhere in between. A little side car, a little side car. It can't be 45th and it can't be 47th because that would be too obvious. Okay. Now we're running out of numbers though. Yeah, it could be like 18th. Yeah, 18th is a random number. So you just go to, well, okay, but you agree with Drew? You switch it out. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, somebody's going to pick up on that. Somebody's going to count. He's got to be 36. What do you think all 75 cars are doing? Decoys. I mean, that's decoys. Yeah. So how about this? What if he's not in any of them and he's in a little beater, a couple streets over and everybody's focused on the motorcade.

41:55So he's in like a Honda Civic. Yeah, it's in a wind direction. So the 75th car parade is for nothing. Exactly. It's all smoking mirrors. He's on a city bike riding right past you. I know. He's on the subway. Everybody look over here. He's coming off the train. Is that Donald Trump? So on the back, one of those cars found a horse playing loud Christmas music. Right, Gary. Right past you. Who's next? Let's go to Tammy. Tammy, go ahead, Tammy. Morning, fellas. How you doing? Good. How are you? Well, thank you. I've got a diary daughter story for Drew during the third quarter. When we went up 28 to 7, my son's watching at his house and screams that let's F&Go. That's a deep origin. And he gets an email yesterday from his daughter's preschool, his four year old. And she said it on the playground.

42:57Said it on the playground. Oh, wow. So you're saying some words when the drop pass happened, but I think my daughters will too young repeat them yet. So you're four year old. Yeah, you're good. Your four year old granddaughter went to her school and screamed, let's blank and go. Yes. Wow. And I don't know if she was yelling at another kid or I don't know, but she picked it up. And I said, that's my girl. That's my girl. Come on, let's go. Did your sons wife get mad at him? I don't know. I haven't talked to her yet. He did text it in our group text, you know, because we were at the game. So we had a group text going and did the dad apologize to the preschool? I don't know. You know, he just told me the story. He texted me the story last night and I just thought it was a very fun. Shannon would not have apologized. She would have said, this is just the way my daughter talks.

43:57You're going to learn it one of these days. He's going to learn it now. Right. You know, I mean, if you're a fan, you're a fan. Come on. Yep. I'm blank and go. I appreciate it. Yeah. All right. So Shannon, we looked up the heavy.com debate. Oh, yeah. And have you determined yet whether you or Billy are at fault? Well, Billy is at fault. We already know that. He's the one that told me that I trust Billy when he comes to me with news and I went back and listened to it. He didn't say it was AI. So I think this is his fault. So somebody went and found the, somebody went and found the words and Billy was not saying it was correct to be fair to Bill. He wasn't saying it was incorrect. But he initially said, I don't think this is right, but and then said it. Well then why would you say it? You don't think it's right. Just to create conversation. Just to create chaos.

44:57But you took it as it was correct. Well, yeah, if he says it, I'm going to think that it's correct. Why would you waste your time talking about it on a rate? You only get an hour. Why would you fill it with misinformation? Some of the listeners made the point through that Shannon doesn't give us the same benefit of the doubt that he seemed to give Billy. Like Shannon is always saying that he thinks Ryan is wrong. And if Shannon thought it was wrong in its wasting time, why did he present it to us his fact? No, I know. I thought originally it was correct. I'm saying now, why would he do that if he thought that it was incorrect? At the time, I thought it was real. You are gullible. No. I trust people, especially people I've been doing radio shows with for years every single morning. Like, I would trust you. I would trust Drew. I would trust Ryan. Well, I don't know if I trust Ryan. No, I would trust you. I'm just kidding. But I trust Billy to tell me. So you are officially on the record that you blame Billy. Yes. All right, Ryan, who do you think is it fault? This is new information where Billy started the conversations and was saying, I don't

45:59think this is true, but you didn't even hear it. I didn't hear that part of the conversation. How do you know Matt is telling you the truth right now? This is John Robick's hair. Oh, you're going to believe somebody is the John record. Oh, you're going to get me a heavy dot com. But then you're going to say John Robick's hair said John Robick's hair is pretty good source. It's hair. I mean, it is good hair, but it's a Twitter account about his hair. Twitter account about a guy's hair. I did hear the caller to the pre show. Take up for you. That's right. And Joey saw it on Google. That's right. But she understands that that also means it's not true. I understand it's I agree it's not true. So you are in green now. It didn't have. Yes, but I'm also a green that I was lied to. But you're taking no responsibility. No, if you get lied to and you tell somebody, you're going to be a good guy. Somebody something that you believe is true. It's not your fault. You believe that person. I just won't trust anybody anymore. I am DTA. Don't trust anybody. Anybody. Anybody. Drew's had an overreaction.

47:00Shannon, do you know Mark Pope wasn't really on the view and Colin Chandler didn't donate all of his NIO? I don't know how to tell you that. That was on Facebook. I don't believe that. Hey, all right. Doesn't believe Facebook. Don't believe heavy dot com anymore. Don't believe. I don't believe. Get him out of here. I don't trust Billy. No more Billy. No more heavy. We'll come back. Mom, are we there yet? 10 more minutes. Only 10 minutes. Can you drive slower? What's up with them today? Lingo kids. That app we downloaded last week. They love it. The games, oh, this funny baby bot character. Kids were almost there. No. With more than 4,000 interactive games, songs, and shows little ones can't get enough of.
