Welcome everyone.

It is the KSR pre Show, Thursday, January fifteenth.

I am Shannon the Dude in the Lovelle Studio being joined by Billy R Sports Over and Lexing.

Didn't give us a call on the Clark's Pupping Shop phone line eight five to nine two eight zho twenty two eighty seven, You're a.

Whiskey thief Call of the day.

You can also send us a text on the Quandtrail Auto group text line five oo two two six five six six five six And man, what a game last night?

That was insane.

I know a lot of people turned off the game at the first half when Kentucky was down by eighteen points.

Kentucky comes back and wins on a buzzer beater.

I'm not gonna say anybody from KSR called it yesterday and said this game would end on a buzzer beater.

Okay, I am going to say I called it.

I called it last night or yesterday on the show.

I said there would be a buzzer beater, Kentucky wins, and it was my Guy Morino of all people.

Billy, we'll talk about that.

In just a few minutes, but first, how are you doing man, you did it good.

I'm great, dude.

Let me check my watch here, it looked like forty five seconds before you did a double victory lap here on the pre show with those predictions this morning, dude, So congratulations.

I'm happy to report my handshakes went well yesterday with all the bosses.

Good.

I wish you the best of luck with your handshakes today.

Don't wish me luck.

I know how to shake a hand.

Okay, okay, yeah, so mainly, you know, you already know.

What shaking hands, kissing babies, been doing that for all my twenty two years here in radio.

Wearing tights.

Yeah, and it just said it all goes together.

Yeah, before we get into the game, though.

That was what everybody really wanted to talk about yesterday as I was just you know, scrolling through Twitter and then going to band practice last night.

You know, it wasn't let's talk about Kentucky and LSU yesterday before the game.

It was Bob and James Town's call talking about aliens and handshakes.

You know, first of all, I'm glad your handshake went well.

I went in last night to band rehearsal.

My guitar player Tony immediately tried to shake my hand to see the that's my strength, and I immediately broke his fingers and we weren't able to rehearse last night.

I mean, it was that bad.

So I think we're gonna need a new guitar player for Bourbon and Bubbles on Saturday because I shook his hand too hard.

But no everybody wanted to talk about that.

And of course Bob and Jamestown call yesterday was his best call ever.

I would ask you, though, what were the the other contenders for the best Bob and James down call of all time.

It looks like Mario is not gonna have to go to the Alien Convention up in Ohio because we did a vote on that.

I don't think he's gonna have to go to that, But Bob's call yesterday was one for the ages.

Billy Well Matt left it up to Mario to decide today whether he go or not.

I'm gonna guess he doesn't now that he's got the choice.

But I mean, just a great Bob call.

I seem to learn something I would have no idea I would have even thought of in the past.

When Bob calls in, he's got a little harvey to him.

It's not remedies, but it is like, are you aware that there's a church in a little town that's having an alien.

Convention and things like that.

It's incredible.

And then for Matt or for you to turn him down while Matt doesn't add read and he does not stop talking, the entire time was perfect.

It was it was great radio.

Yes, Well, part of being the producer for KSR is you know the callers that kind of get under Matt's skin, and somebody on the show, a co host and producer who also occasionally likes to get under Matt's skin a little bit.

I maybe unintentionally or intentionally allegedly didn't hear Matt's I appreciate the call, so I left Bob on a little bit longer because I thought Bob still had some things to say.

I was right and thinking that, and Bob continued to talk.

Now, what's fascinating about that call?

If you go back and listen to it, I don't know should we should we play it on the pre show.

I don't have it queued up just for reference.

Maybe we can do that later in the show.

But Bob is talking the whole time, that Matt's talking, and Bob doesn't seem to understand or be aware that Matt is doing a live ad read while Bob continues to talk about aliens in the background.

It's like Bob can't even hear the other part of the conversation.

We knew we were talking over Bob, but I don't think Bob knew that he was being talked over, or maybe he just didn't care.

I don't.

I think it's that he didn't care.

I remember we were at a Don Franklin one time.

He just started taking a call in the middle of the show, I mean, in the crowd, and you know Matt was going to have that.

But you know, with the JMI pregame not taking as many calls or any calls.

Now, there's been a couple of callers that call in a little bit more frequently, like Bob and Jamestown to get it out Shandon, right, that was their outlet for a long time.

So but I mean, you have no idea what directing the call is going to go.

When Bob gets on and a savvy veteran move, just like I do on the postgame show.

Sometimes you sprinkle in of Bob from Jamestown right, just to maybe get under Matt skin a little bit.

Now.

Like I said, the big bosses here here in town in Louisville today, So I don't know what we got to do.

I know I get a free lunch out of it.

I'm excited about that.

But there's people in this building that I haven't seen and here months.

Some people I forgot even worked here.

And when the big bosses come in, it's like all of a sudden, this building, which is fairly empty from day to day, is all of a sudden packed.

Like I came in this morning.

I could barely even find a parking spot, there were so many people here.

Yeah, And if I could just set the scene here for the audience a little bit.

You've got a quarter zip on, a maroon quarter zip on that I've never seen this done a little bit like.

The bosses are coming to town.

Look like you didn't roll out of a dumpster.

Look.

Oh, that's one hundred percent what it was.

I mean, I had the khaki pants on yesterday.

Dude, I'm not going I don't think I own a pair of khakis.

You're a big khakis guy.

I think I just hate khakis because when I was in high school.

We had school uniforms and I had to wear khakis every day with like a polo, and I just don't I don't like khakis, But you're a khaki guy.

I won a Haybell Toss championship in a pair of khakis.

So I can't help but have fond memories and as GM, you know, sometimes you've just got to let people know that you mean business, Shannon.

But you know what, maybe we need some coaches to wear some khakis on the sideline so they can have the confidence to get this UK basketball team out of the bubble and into the NCAA tournament.

And last night and they went a long way for it.

Yeah, I mean that right there, cancels out.

I think you know, we said yesterday you win this game on the road.

It kind of cancels out the loss that you had at rop Arena.

So you're two and two in the SEC and let's just talk about it.

Let's just go through the whole thing here.

I mean, Kentucky down in the first half, they score what three points in the first was it eight minutes or something like that?

Looked like they were just.

Totally unprepared coming into this game, and I thought, man, this is going to be a blowout.

They're down as much as eight, they're down sixteen at halftime, down as much as eighteen in the second half, but then they fight back.

They end up cutting it down to seven, and it kind of fluctuates seven, nine, five, at some points back up to seven.

Then they get it down.

They finally take the lead with the with the minute or so left in the game, go up by a couple of points, and then it comes down to free throws being missed.

I mean, that's kind of what it came down to for LSU.

Oh way, by the way, goes to the line right before the two miss free throws from LSU, has a chance to tie it up, makes one of two.

They got lucky there, Kentucky got really lucky because LSU comes down, They get fouled with a chance to knock down a couple of free throws and at worst case scenario you go to overtime, but instead LSU player misses both of them, and then it sets up this miraculous play for Malacamarino to basically do the Christian Latner shot is what it was, long home run pass to Moreno turns around knocks down, the shot pulls off like you talk about it, like you could probably get really good odds on DraftKings to win that game.

But crazy, crazy finish.

We've seen some crazy games over the years down in Baton Rouge.

Add that one to the list.

Last night.

Well, let's start with that first half, because that was a crazy first half in itself.

Kentucky shoots twenty six percent in the first half.

They only hit one field goal in the first ten minutes of the game.

Like, I mean, I felt like the entire fan base had checked out by halftime.

Shannon, I don't know about you, but it was just it was abysmal.

Well, this is why, Yeah, this is why I don't tweet during games, because the amount of freezing cold takes and takes that age like sour milk.

You know, you look at all the people are like, oh, this team's done.

Fire pope, he's done.

This team.

The season's over.

And then to come back and win and then everybody looks ridiculous When you go back and read those those posts when Kentucky wins the game.

I can't blame fans online for having that reaction though.

How many times have we seen in the Mark Pope era of Kentucky get down by double digits or by twenty plus this year.

I mean, I was having visions of the Gonzaga game again in which they were was it down by thirty five or lost by thirty five?

At one point it was just it was terrible.

And then the guys came out kind of a little early out of the halftime locker room.

It was almost like Mark Pope had just chew their ass out, and then they went back out to get some shots up and he saw a little bit of a demeanor change.

You saw otega Oway and Denzel Aberdeen, I think, really have a good second half to allow Kentucky to have a chance in that game, along with Yellovich who got the start last night, who had times I thought played really well.

Dude.

I mean there were a couple mistakes that I think he's still getting used to the speed of the game.

But for somebody that had not played a ton of minutes and thrust it into the starting lineup, Yellovich was great and I think is a big key moving forward for Kentucky at the four.

But then just the drama at the end the way step back that doesn't count because of the shot, cluck violation, way missing one of those two free throws, Kentucky getting the rebound on the missed free throws and taking a time out to allow enough time for that play to happen.

It was just really special.

And for the women to have that big game winner against LSU just not too long ago, and for the men to do it again, I mean, Baton Rouge treating the Cats very kindly and again that.

They had to have, right dude, I mean, yeah, you don't have that one.

You lose to a.

Winless LSU team, and it's the beginning, if the beginning of the end, if not already in the middle of a spiraling season.

So happy for Malachi man, I really am.

He had such a great game in the last one.

His mom called it in the postgame show and uh and you know, in one of the losses this year, he took all the blame right like, He's like, I didn't box out on that missed free throw a couple of games ago.

It's all on me.

And Jack Gibbons was like, no, Malachi, it's not on you.

This is a team game.

Well, Malachi joins Jack in the post game after the game last night, and he's like, you tried to blame.

Yourself the other day.

Well, I'm so proud of you and how you've turned it around and the game that you had tonight.

I mean, Malachi had four fouls early in the second half of this game, dude, and he was a force even before the game winning shot.

So really happy for the freshman and somebody that's that's rising up NBA draft boards right now, believe it?

Or is that back to back calls by Malcha Moreno's mom on the postgame show this Yeah, so maybe she's just a regular caller that just calls in on the postgame show.

Now.

She said that she was so excited after the win that she got like two hundred text messages.

She was responding to the everybody and on the first thing she did was look at Matt's Twitter to see when the postgame show started.

She wanted to call in so bad and listen to what was happening.

O.

Tega Away has been awesome and we got to give it up to him too.

I mean, he was dealing with some sort of sickness.

They said he wasn't feeling well.

He didn't even go through the shoot around.

Still came out dropped twenty one points.

Was huge in that game.

And just like a little perspective on the difference between the first and second half.

Kentucky scored more points in the first eight minutes of the second half than they did the entire first half, just to show you how bad that first half really was and how much of a different team they were coming out at halftime, which was pretty crazy.

So only twenty scored twenty two in the first half, fifty three in the second half.

And I mean, you would have asked me at halftime, Shanney.

You talked about these freezing cold takes.

I mean the group chats, people were angry, and I completely understand with the offense and the performance we were getting, but Mark Pope got into him.

They seemed to, you know, change up their game plan a little bit.

They started switching on screens on defense.

That seemed to help a lot, at least that's what Mark Pope was saying afterwards in the postgame.

Talked to Tom for nine minutes after the game, Shannon, So the vibes were good and it was a big road win for this team.

That's you know, it looks like a time struggling with confidence right.

I mean this could go a long way.

You saw Modea Bote, who's just been yelling at everybody these last two games, be one of the biggest cheers on the sideline and I don't know, sometimes you can look into things too much, but hopefully that's a sign of good things to come with these guys.

Now, what did you make about the LSU athletic director essentially putting their head coach, Matt McMahon on the hot seat, saying, of LSU doesn't make the tournament, they're gonna have to reevaluate.

Yeah, I don't think that's something that most athletic directors would say publicly.

That's probably something that would be said maybe you know, privately, behind the scenes.

But I mean that got out yesterday too, where basically we now know that fellas who doesn't make it to the tournament, they're probably gonna be uh looking for a new head coach at the end of the season.

It seems unnecessary, right, the pressure you put on your coach by saying something like that, and he and even the players they know that you've said that.

I guess the one argument for it is that he is the ad that did not hire this coach, right, So it's always the you know, you get a new ad in or.

That's awkward, right, that's going to be uncomfortable going like all right, yeah, I've got the job, but you didn't hire me.

And everybody that's like an athletic director wants to, you know, come in and put their stamp on the program and hire their guys.

So if you're like a coach that's already at a school, new ad comes in, you've already got like a lot more pressure on you than you would if you were hired by the guy who's your ad.

Yeah.

I mean, it's just it is a weird situation.

You're not are you beholden to how good they are?

You want to get your own guy in and show that you can make the right decisions, right, So I mean, but yeah, odd timing for him to make that comment, you know, Shannon, I'm just I you know, I'm really happy this This team has showed fight at a lot of times this year, despite them getting down double digits or twenty plus points in a lot of these games.

Even in some games that they've lost this year, they've come back in the second half and showed that resolve and showed that fight, and at least to me, that shows me that this team has not quit yet, and it very well could have in the past this year.

So well, yeah, they will say that's something I've been critical of the team all year because there have been games where I feel like they didn't show any fight.

You know, if you want to look at the biggest example of that, can go back to the Gonzaga game where they just look like they just didn't even want to be there.

But last night and some other games more recently, they have shown a lot of fight.

I think the Mississippi State game is another game where they got down and we're getting boot out of the arena, come back, end up winning by twenty four points.

So I think last night that game could have been what saved the season.

Now, we got a tough stretch coming ahead with the schedule, so this could go a lot of different ways.

But if you're gonna salvage the season, you had to get the win last night, and it was a huge win down in LSU.

We'll take your phone calls coming up next you get something else you want.

To add, Well, I was just gonna say they put a big on the inbounder too.

Yeah, I mean full court pass.

That's why they don't change the rule like they do in the NBA where you take a time out and you can take it past half court.

That's why they need to keep it right because I mean it did look exactly like the Laightner shot did or not.

I mean, it was just it was almost a carbon copy.

But they had a man on the inbounder too.

All right, we'll take your calls.

Coming up next eight five to nine two eight h twenty two eighty seven.

Big win last night for the Cats.

We'll be right back here on the pre show.

All right, welcome back.

It is the KSR pre Show.

Garth Brooks bringing us back Colin Baton Rouge.

There was a bit that we did long ago on KSR.

I was trying to find the version of like this song that's by Garth Brooks.

Couldn't find it anywhere like he had had I guess this song and all of his catalog pulled from the internet like where you couldn't find it.

So like if you wanted to hear Colin Baton Rouge, you had to find like somebody covering the song.

So we just played the entire show.

Everybody's version of Colin bat Rudge, except for Garth Brooks because he had pulled his his.

Cab Streams and that would equal money, Like I just didn't make a lot of sense, one would think.

But I guess if you're Garth Brooks, you get all the money in the world.

And uh is possibly a serial killer, at least according to our our guitar player, Tony and Alice Bluegown.

He sends me these things all the time, these clips.

He swears up and down.

He believes this conspiracy theory that Garth Brooks is actually a serial killer.

And this whole thing started.

I guess where there were murders that happened in the cities where Garth Brooks was touring.

So every time that Garth Brooks would go to another city, there would be like a murder that night.

So there's this conspiracy theory that Garth Brooks is a murderer.

And Tony, who now has broken fingers because of my sturdy handshake that I gave him last night at band rehearsal, believes that Garth Brooks is a killer.

And I'm like, dude, are you serious right now?

You can't actually believe that.

But there's people who believe that that oh.

Man conspiracy theories go wild.

I mean before it was YouTube.

Now you get on TikTok and you can find a thirteen minute video explaining why this relates to that.

It's kind of like the new conspiracy theory in the NFL that the forty nine ers get hurt all the time at a higher rate than most Team Shannon because their stadium is next to a power plant, right, yeah, yeah, And I guess it makes their bones britle or something like that, or easier to break.

So I don't know.

Jeff Wright said it says I turned off the game last night at halftime, didn't even know Kentucky won until I woke up this morning.

Ryan, is that actually?

Is that your burner account?

Ryan Lemon, who's finding out right now listening to the Free Show that Kentucky actually won the game last night?

I would like to know, like how many people actually turned it off at halftime last night when they were down about sixteen.

I feel like there's probably a good percentage of fans who actually did that and didn't come back to the game.

Well, I don't know if he turned it off, but Oscar Combe said at halftime I'm just going to watch the second half and I'm not going to tweet any stats afterwards.

This has been so bad and then they ended up winning if he ended up tweeting it anymore, but I can't blame people for turning it off last night at halftime.

I mean, Shannon one bat one field goal in the first ten minutes of the game.

Oh, it was awful, like we've gotten off to so many bad starts.

But I guess it, you know, doesn't matter how bad of a start you get off too if you win the game, which they did the last two.

You know, you that game against Mississippi State looked so bad.

I thought, man, they're gonna get blown out at home.

They come back and win by twenty four.

Then last night couldn't throw it in the ocean and end up winning the game.

So it's just frustrating to watch the team have to, you know, come back and win these games.

It's exciting, it's also frustrating to watch the games just.

Get off to such like terrible starts.

Not only was Bob and Jamestown a good call on KSR yesterday, but the postgame show had some really really interesting callers, one including Chad who was clearly drunk and said that he yelled at his wife, his dog, and his kid.

He was so mad in the first half.

What did the wife and the kid and the dog have to do with it?

I mean, yeah, man, we were like, thank god Kentucky won.

Get some counseling.

If you're yelling at your wife, your kid, and your dog, even because Kentucky's losing, that's a you problem.

Yeah.

Poor dog.

Yeah, poor family.

They're just trying to trying to live and Chad's yelling at them because the Cats can't make a basket.

Well, I can tell you one thing.

If you bet on Kentucky money line when they were down by eighteen, you could have gotten some really good odds on DraftKings last night.

And you got the NFL playoffs coming up this weekend on Saturday and Sunday of course the College Football Championship game on Monday as well.

Get bet it on DraftKings.

And if you're a new customer, you want to sign up with the promo code KSR.

When you do that, you bet five dollars on your first bet.

I would bet something simple, you know, to make sure you get this three hundred dollars in bonus bets because you have to win that first bet in order to get the bonus bets.

But it's all there for you on DraftKings where you can do NFL player props and if your player goes down with an injury in the first half, they're going to give you your money back.

How many betting apps do that?

Only DraftKings that I'm aware of, anyway, So get on DraftKings, use that promo code KSR as a new customer.

Bet five, get three hundred dollars in bonus bets and it's all on the DraftKings Sportsback sportsbook app.

If you have a gambling problem, call one eight hundred Gambler eighteen plus Kentucky only.

Eligibility or restriction apply.

Bet must win to receive bonus bets, which expire in seven days.

Additional terms at dk NNG dot co slash Audio Limited time offer.

What's the safest bet you can make on this Kentucky basketball team right now.

That they're going to be down ten points in the first five minutes of the game, Like like, I don't think you're wrong, I'm serious, Like you know they have a thing on they're race to ten.

Yeah, I would do race to ten.

Whoever they're playing.

I think does a great coquart that way.

Like you are betting against Kentucky, but you're not betting against Kentucky to lose the game.

You're just technology and we're going to be down by ten points in the first five minutes of the game.

So I would do Kentucky versus anybody race the ten pick the other team.

That's the safest bet you can make.

I think you're right and may and I'm sure some Kentucky unders have come through this year.

If you're betting, just team totals.

And then oway points total, whatever they give you to make it, take the over.

Yes, well lately he has been fantastic.

Yep U nine twenty two eighty seven.

Let's take our first call.

Let's go to Joey.

Hey, Joey, what's up?

Joey?

Hey guys, how y'all doing good?

Man?

First, I want to say all the glory goes to God.

I think we need that right now in today's society, where you just never know what's going to happen, and as cruel as people are, but as of last night, man, I'm glad the guys fought.

I want to just say the heck of a game.

Broway and Morino and them guys, they stuck with it whenever.

I ain't gonna lie about gave up on him last night out of the first half.

But you got a little advice for Pope.

He needs to go down to the Bank of Lexington or whatever banking is down there and get a big loan and secure Marino for next year, because that dude is going to be a big time player.

He could skyrocket us next year.

I'd hope he'd stay out of the draft this year because it's so top heavy, because I think he could be a top ten pick next year.

That's all I got.

I appreciate it, basically, Thank you, Joey, And I'll tell you, Billy, I haven't seen the draft boards, but if he keeps playing like that, he's not going to be here next year.

He's going to be in the league.

He's like back into the first round right now.

And call is right.

He could work his way into the top ten if he were to stay for another year.

We'll take more of your phone calls.

Coming up next, it is the KSR Pre Show.

We'll be right back, Welcome back.

It is the KSR Pre Show.

Eight five nine two eight h twenty two eighty seven.

We'll go back to your phone calls in just a minute.

But before we do that, Billy, you might remember at one point last year, I was an extra in a movie.

A cop remembers the tweeter at that picture of me dressed up as a police officer.

It was for a movie called dead Man's Wire.

And I just want to let you and everybody else know that that movie is in theaters starting tonight.

So if you want to go watch dead Man's Wire and possibly see Officer Dude in the background.

I don't know if I'll be seen or not, because in that wrestling movie that I did, I mean you'd have to like zoom in and freeze it at the exact split second to even really see me in the movie.

But dead Man's Wire will be out in theaters this weekend, and I guess I'm gonna go out and see it by as well.

Right, I was in the movie, or at least I think that could be in the movie.

I got paid to be there on set for the movie, so I'm gonna go watch it.

Oh we heard about that.

If you remember, you were held a little bit longer than you thought you were that's radio shoot the show to do the next day.

You were like telling extras and like, production, guys, are we done yet?

Like can I go?

I need?

I got a show to do the next morning.

Dude, this better be a good movie, because I sacrificed an entire night's worth of staying up and coming in here and doing.

This show off of a half hour's sleep.

And that's basically what broke me from every wanting to be an extra in a movie again, is this movie that comes out today?

You're right because they.

Didn't tell me I was gonna be there literally all night shooting this movie.

It started at like five pm.

I thought, we'll be done by eleven midnight, No later than midnight.

Surely to god, we're not gonna be going told when it wrap six am.

Raft at six am the next so like twelve thirteen hours later, I was old, I go, don't call me back until you have a speaking role for me.

You got if you want me to come talk in a movie, all right, maybe I'll sit up and not sleep all night and come back in here and do six radio shows the next day.

But until then, don't don't call me back.

So that that very well, Billy, maybe the last time you ever see me on the set of a movie.

Yeah, And I have not found any speaking roles for you, dude, So unfortunately, just the market's real dry.

Right right, Yeah, Well, you're supposed to be my agent.

You're supposed to be out there shopping for me, you know, trying to like, Hey, I've got this guy who's a great actor.

You know, he's like one of the upcoming actors.

He just needs a speaking role.

You haven't gotten me one role yet, not even like.

I can't make These directors want a cranky guy that's got a radio show the next day to be on.

Not even a Hallmark movie.

Come on, man, Now, I'm looking at the imd Pight IMDb page for this movie.

There are sixty cast members listed.

Unfortunately, our guy, Shannon the dude is not.

Well, dude, they don't list extras.

Al Pacino is listed, though, so Bill Scars guards in it?

Yep, Scars guard.

Who else is it?

Oh?

Carrie els el Is.

I don't know how you say his name, but he was in Saul.

He was in the Saw movies.

Doctor Gordon, if you watch those movies.

Did you talk to any of these people?

Or were you just so mad that you wanted to leave that Well, No, I.

Was waiting for them to come up and talk to me.

I think they were a little starstruck.

I think Bill scars Guard was like, you know that that shit of the dude right there.

I don't know if I should call doct him or not for that Shane of the dude?

Is that the guy that broke our producer's hand when he shook it when he got here.

Al Pacino, you know he wanted to come talk to me.

Too, but he did.

That would have been a billy move to just go up to Al and act like I was one of his co stars.

You know what's up?

Al?

Like how you doing on set?

Like what's you know?

What do you think of this?

Just don't even like introduce yourself, just act like your butt's But the moment has passed.

Here is the by the way, people have already seen it, because it's got on IMDb a seven out of ten, which.

Is actually good.

I loved if you can get a seven.

Out of ten on im No, it's only got seven hundred and forty three votes, and probably a lot of these were people who were in the movie.

So we'll hold our judgment until it actually comes out and we get to see it this weekend.

But here is the synopsis for the movie.

It says, on February eighth, nineteen seventy seven, Tony coritisis I don't know if it's I'm going to go with that last name pronunciation, entered the office of Richard Hall, president of the Meridian Mortgage Company, and took him hostage with a solid off shotgun wired to a dead man's wire from the trigger to Tony's own neck.

So that's the movie right.

There that the police officers responding, yeah, just might be our guy, Shannon the dude, Well, I mean, do you feel like your performance in dead Man's Wire was better than your misogynist wrestling protest?

Oh?

Yeah, yeah yeah, Like I got to like go out of the apartment building that the guy was being held hostage in.

Or I guess it's a bank, right, it's actually an apartment spoiler alert, It wasn't a real bank that they were using.

It was like of an apartment building.

Don't ruin the illusion and the magic of the movie for me before I go see it.

But anyway, I was the lead officer who opened up the door and then tried to hold back the media, which is sort of ironic, you know, since I'm part of the media, I'm holding back the media, like, hey, no comments right now.

Didn't Yeah, didn't you say you tried to add lines?

Yeah, you could be.

I was like, hey, hey, yeah, I was.

I was just yelling things out loud, hoping that you know, somebody would go, that's really good.

We should keep that.

And nobody said that to.

Me though then you get a speaking credit, right, But yeah, I think they were like, now.

Yeah, I was trying to actually force my my voice into the movie, but I'm sure that'll be uh deleted out.

Nonetheless, though I like that move.

That's another billy move.

But uh, I think I'm just gonna wait until Blu Ray, maybe the Blue Ray.

Nobody's got Blu Ray anymore.

Oh, come on, short, like that was short lived though, like DVD's obviously were huge.

Then you had Blu Ray.

I felt like was around for a couple of years.

You could get those at those red boxes.

Red boxes wehere everywhere, but there was like only a thing for like a year or two, I felt like, and then it was like all the red boxes were gone.

I felt like every McDonald's had a red box.

Yeah, and now good luck find him box.

You went to a McDonald's or a Walgreens, and if he went there, you could go.

You could go get your medicine.

You can go get a Blu Ray.

But not anymore.

They're like a thing of the past.

So anyway, that's what I'll be doing this weekend, getting.

A Blu Ray.

No going to see Dead Men's Wild Ye.

All right, Drew's up next?

What's up?

Drew?

Hey, guys, A couple of quick hits day one collar here Drew from Corn.

First of all, Shannon, you don't know this, but you are two degrees of separation away from from Garth Brooks, a guy that you played baseball against when you when you were a Lindsay Wilson.

Uh, he co writes with Garth Brooks.

Daughter, which one which play?

I got?

Which play?

You can't just tell me one of the guys that Lindsay Wilson, not tell me your name of who is it?

No?

No, no, no, no no no.

A guy you played against, step he's a yeah.

He's an Ashville recording artist.

Good friend of mine.

I actually talked to him yesterday.

Garth Brook's daughter's name is Ali Colleen is what her stage name is.

She's trying to kind of separate herself from her dad's trying to make her own thing.

I very well could be on Garth Brooks hit list, since I'm only two degrees of separation from Garth Brooks.

Like if he comes to Louisville, everybody like watch out.

So if you're out careful, you might be the next guy.

Okay, But but yeah, I know that now.

I want to tell you that when I was on hold, listen there.

But I also have another story if you guys don't care.

So a young Groo Mahn twelve thirteen years old, I'm at a baseball field and I see there's a there's a volleyball court down there behind the baseball field, and I see a bunch of these huge guys playing volleyball.

So I just kind of wander down there, and they asked me to come in and play.

It was Mark Pope, it was Walter McCarty, it was Jeff Shephard, and it was Nazi Mohammed, and it was Tony Dilk playing playing volleyball in Corbyn in Corbin, Kentucky.

They they were doing some kind of an event or whatever.

But Mark Pope actually spiked one off my face a young thirteen year old.

So I know he's a great guy and all that, and I love him, don't get wrong, he's my coach.

But but yeah, that's but I'm glad they've turned things around.

Seems like hopefully, hopefully our trends continues.

But I just wanted to tell you guys that.

All right, Hey, thanks to call Drew.

I appreciate it a lot to unpack there, but uh, you know, Billy, I'd like to think that this is what is going to be the turning point of the season.

If we end up having a good rest of the season, we can I think point back to that shot by Marino and that went over LSU to be in the turning point of the season.

But again, we're gonna have to wait and see what happens.

I'm not going to say this is going to be the definitive moment of the year just yet.

Yeah, let's let's still wait and see.

I mean, this definitely makes up for your loss versus Missouri, right and now I think you're only one game back in the SEC Conference as a whole right now.

Because Vandy lost last night.

They got right.

I knew they would.

I knew they were going to drop that game because do you know.

Their women's team was undefeated too.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's crazy.

So now there's only I believe there's only is it three undefeated teams in college basketball?

Now, I'm not sure Arizona.

Can you name the other ones?

No, it was Iowa State, but they got beat Arizona and then Nebraska, Oh, Nebraska, So I think I think those may be the only two now because I think it was four.

I think it was Vandy, Iowa State, Nebraska, Arizona.

Iowa State lost the other night to Kansas.

Vandy lost last night, So now I think I'm right about this.

I'll have to check myself.

But uh, Arizona, Rasco, you're only two undefeated teams in college basket.

You think about if you're a student at Vandy right now.

You got the men's team one loss, women's team undefeated, Diego Pavia.

In the last two years with Vandy football, the baseball teams regularly in the College World Series.

Yep, the role man, I mean, that has been a better time of Andy athletics.

Like that's that's crazy.

Yeah, But again though, like Kentucky can.

If Vandy can do that, if Indiana football can do what they're doing, Kentucky can do the same thing.

It's about getting like the right quarterback and the right head coach Combo football simply and then you know basketball, Kentucky has the possibility to do that better than anybody.

So yeah, with the baseball team making a World Series a couple of years ago, they got high expectations this year too.

They got a really good roster.

I think they're getting.

Ready to start things up a little bit here in the winter.

Also, Garth Brooks could never play at Bourbon and Bubbles Shannon, you know that.

Oh yeah, no, he couldn't.

He couldn't.

Alice Bluegown will be there though.

We're going to be playing there this Saturday, five till nine pm, Central Bank Center.

Tickets at bourbona bubbleslex dot com.

You get unlimited premium Bourbon samples, wine, local food vendors are going to be there.

They got VIP ticket options that you can get and you can get designated.

Driver tickets as well.

If you know, if you want to have a friend that comes out and is the responsible one that drives your your drunk self home at the end of the night.

You got to have somebody to take care of you at the end of the night.

So get your designated driver lined up and come on out for bourbonam Bubbles this Saturday at Central Bank Center.

Yeah, Drew is doing postgame with me in the Lexington studio Saturday.

Then we're walking over.

Oh yeah, nice, all right, that's awesome.

Hopefully he can drive me home.

Uh.

Nebraska's seventeen and oh.

Listen to their schedule.

They're gonna be undefeated for a while, at least for the next twelve days.

They got Northwestern Washington at home Minnesota, then they had to play Michigan.

They might drop that game, but until then, I mean, they're gonna be eighteen nineteen, they're gonna be twenty and oh going into that Michigan game.

Nebraska basketball of all teams.

Well, it's not the SEC.

Isn't the conference that it was?

Ye right, last year it could have been called maybe the best conference of all time in college groups.

It's just not like that this year.

So it sounds like the Big Tensil maybe a little bit.

Now, let's go to hell, Hey, hell, hey, hell.

Hey, guys, how you doing.

It's been a while.

I got a different trucking schedule.

Now I'm picking up the load up here north of Cincinnati.

I've been waiting on I just got the green right now.

But uh, yeah, we just wanted to uh say that.

Last night, seventeen minutes left in the game.

I Uh, I said that I put off the gym and I put off my walk, and so I said, well, I'm gonna go out for a walk, and I turned the game off, and uh and I but my post I put.

I made a post about it on Facebook and I said, I'm uh, I'm leaving the game.

Uh, I'm going to see if it will help them.

So my mindset was to go out and leave the game to see if I can help the team win.

You did, which they did.

So I feel like a bad fan.

I don't do I haven't done this in a long time, maybe since I was like, uh, you know, going way back to the eighties.

Well I was real young.

But so the main point is is that I was just so frustrated.

I looked up on Ken Pound.

They had seventeen minutes left to take You had a fourteen percent chance to seven fourteen percent chance to win the game.

So, uh, and I also made that.

Though that's that was I didn't know that how I was about to go for his walk.

They didn't know that Matt Jones was about to jump in the shower.

As soon as those two things happened, the percentage went from fourteen percent to like ninety eight percent.

Chance you call yourself a bad fan, you're a good great fan.

Taken one.

Yeah, you went for a walk.

I think they should give you the assame.

I mentioned to you one time.

I think I'm a lot like Matt.

Matt he's left games before, correct, he doesn't watched them?

Yeah, I mean we drive to Milwaukee for him to go watch the game in a hotel gym room is what we do.

So I'm similar to him in a lot of ways.

But yeah, I also made a part of my post was no heart, no guts.

I didn't see a lot of heart in the first half.

Now, somebody came on there and said I didn't age well, and I have to agree with that.

They showed heart and guts in the second half, and so I have to eat that.

Part of what I said was they changed was wrong.

I saw what I saw, But he's like, well, I didn't age well.

Okay, I accept that, but they did show that was the economy of a gut to win.

But ye so uh.

And the key was the key to the wind was more assist than turnovers we had, so sharing the ball.

The ball, Sharing the ball actually works.

Maybe NATO's turned us on to something that we were doing wrong.

Go for a walk out.

Thanks for the call.

We appreciate it.

Take a walk.

You know, Natoates was pointing out the fact that our bigs, you pass the ball into the paint, they go up with the shot.

They're not looking to pass.

So you know, you get more assists last night.

And I don't know, I would think that would be something that we would already know, we would be self aware of, but maybe we weren't.

Thanks Natoates, we appreciate the tip.

If Kentucky scores twenty two points and a half again, I want how to get the hell out of his recliner.

That's right, go take a walk.

That's right, eight five nine, two, twenty two eighty seven.

I'm going to take a break and go for a walk right now.

We'll take more of your phone calls.

Coming up next final segment of the KSR pre Show, we'll be right back, final segment of the KSR pre show.

All right, one correction, there is another undefeated team in college basketball.

Apparently Billy Miami, Ohio is eighteen or no, so let's add them.

So I guess there's three undefeated teams still left in college That's right.

That was from the quantrell Otto text line five O two two sixty five six six five six, in which a lot of people also said they liked Tom and Goose's call of the game winner last night.

Did you hear that I did?

Yeah?

Tom gets excited.

Man, he screamed.

I think I busted my ear drum listening to the call.

But they blew the mics out.

Yeah, yeah, there's nothing really I can do producing that.

Like, I don't tell them to turn their mics down before the biggest moment of the game.

Right, it just clipped because of the excitement.

But Jack also just started screaming when it went in, just no words, just screams, And I think it was it was perfect.

Actually.

Now another thing here is this KSR group text that we have on our phone, and usually the text the group I hate group text.

Can I just say that I hate like I looked down at my phone.

I've got twenty five text messages and it's basically Matt and Mario just you hate texting each other.

I'm going you guys realize you could just text each other directly, like I don't have to be tagged on this, right, But on the KSR group text, I see that Matt says he's going to be ten minutes late, so I guess we're gonna be starting the KSR show without him.

Secondly, Drew sends us a picture of his slippers and says, I left my house wearing slippers.

Had to go by.

I'll be there soon Ryan.

So KSR is coming up in about ten minutes, actually less than ten minutes or eight minutes from now, and it's probably just gonna be Ryan and I to start the show because Matt's late for an unspecified reason.

And Drew left the house wearing slippers.

Glad somebody else does it, that's right.

We was also a fellow house slipper guy.

I don't know if you're wearing the slippers around the house, dude, I've got them, you know what.

I've got a pair of I've got a pair of slippers.

I put them on and I go like I look like such an old man.

I was embarrassed to walk around in my own house and slippers, so I took them off and didn't wear them, just put them.

Back on the rock.

If you need to put a robe on, have a pipe.

A pipe, what about Hugh Hefner.

Yeah, yeah, I'm.

Glad that you think that that highlight of me.

Well, I mean, I just think you need to embrace the you know, getting the fifty introdudinus, right, that's true, the inner dudas.

Just bring out a little the Jeff Bridges.

I got the robe.

I just need the white Russian to go along with it.

Sam's up next?

What's up?

Sam?

Go ahead?

Hey, appreciate you taking the call.

Sorry for calling in last minute.

I just wanted to say I was listening to the post game last night and it may have not been as funny to others, but I think it's always perfect Billy throwing the Johnny Rocker segment at the perfect time.

I just got off a heartfelt call with Malacha's mom, Mad ask you and then you just throw it to.

The Johnny Royer.

I found it was hilarious as always.

Appreciate the call.

You all of the good one, all right, Sam, thankk you?

Sam?

Yeah, So I have an endorsement with Johnny Rocker on the post game, but there was real set time that I do it, So I just kind of throwing in whenever.

And so after Malachi's mom called in, I went immediately into the Johnny Rocker last night?

Who was Malachi Moreno, Shannon Nice?

So let's go to Johnny Short.

He's a Rocker Short.

How are you Buddy's second?

Hell, y'all doing good?

Got it the less than a minute.

So what do you got?

Game?

We rock casts at the whole game, a game, not just a shot to the whole game again, and we're gonna beat Flars to night by twenty begins.

That's right, Women's fast game for the women's team tonight.

Thanks for the colleg John, good to hear from you.

That was an instant classic last night, Billy.

You know, like when ESPN does their instant classic games, I feel like that's one that they'll put into the rotation.

Well, it must be something down there in Baton Rouge, right, because we've seen some miracles.

Sometimes I have to go back and watch that thirty one point comeback just to believe that it actually happened.

Like I watched it and it's like, how in the world could that even possibly happen?

But it did.

It was crazy.
