Welcome to our two of Kentucky Sports Radio present it by Stockton Mortgage.

Now here's Matt Jones waterback.

Speaker 4

It is Kentucky Sports Radio.

Speaker 5

If I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven, text machine is seven seven two seven four five two five four.

We got a lot of people on here, a lot of people writing good comments on the text machine.

One person writes, Matt, every time you talk about marriage, I see why you're not married.

Although I do think most of your opinions make sense.

Marriage is not about logic.

Do you agree with that?

Speaker 2

I one hundred percent agree with that.

There's a lot of give and take with a marriage, though, Are you Are you ready to accept some of that when you step into that role?

That's the big question.

Speaker 4

Yeah, I mean there's give and take on everything, right.

Speaker 2

Yeah, but you know mainly when you're married, it's a lot of giving, not a lot of taking.

Speaker 4

You agree with that?

Look all this good advice he's giving, But like we do have to think about the fact that were on number three.

Speaker 2

Not true, not married to number three but close to married?

Toniver, What do you put on Facebook?

I'm in a relationship?

Speaker 6

Oh you're a Facebook official?

Speaker 2

Now I'm Facebook official?

Speaker 4

Oh did you really you made it facebook official?

Speaker 2

I don't even know how to do that.

Speaker 5

One person said, Matt.

I was sitting on one of the golf holes yesterday glen Oaks.

Speaker 4

I saw you.

Speaker 5

My wife and I were on the our patio.

I saw you hit a ball that came within inches of hitting a person's window.

Speaker 4

Did you know that?

Speaker 5

I didn't know it almost hit the window, but I knew there was a couple that there were some dangers.

First of all, those houses at glen Oaks are right on the course.

Speaker 4

Oh yeah.

Speaker 5

And then yesterday I was right of the fairway in a house.

Speaker 4

Your house was in the danger one, and there was one where my friend Johnny Bruce was like, oh no as soon as I hit it.

Speaker 5

So I'm not surprised.

I don't think that's a lie.

I was all over the place yesterday.

It was not good.

Speaker 7

Craziest part as you found in the way.

And then I usually works.

Speaker 2

Kicked out hit.

Speaker 5

That's not that that didn't That didn't happen at all.

All right, So two things.

First of all, did you did you see the story about Justin Bieber?

Speaker 4

Oh, so.

Speaker 5

Shannon a dude dressed, So I guess there was.

There's a hot club in Vegas.

Okay, all right, so you got to think about that.

You've been to a club in Vegas, Drew and I went one with you.

Yeah you we went that one time, right, and it's like it's too cool for us.

No, Frogs is not a club.

That's a disgusting bar.

I'm talking about like I'm talking like a boom.

I used to go to tow Yeah, places like that.

I hate those kind of places.

But we went like one time and Drew, I don't shan, I don't remember you being.

Speaker 4

There, but either I think that was okay.

Speaker 5

So well, so anyway you get, it's like everybody's hot, everybody's doing the thing.

Speaker 4

Well, Justin Bieber.

Speaker 5

Show well a guy who looks like Justin Bieber, Okay, not a lot like him, but kind of like shaved head, tattoos, sunglasses, dressed like Justin Bieber.

Speaker 4

He shows up at the club.

Now nobody knows yet what.

Speaker 5

I don't think I've seen whether he was trying to do this or he just showed up and everybody thought he was Justin Bieber.

So they led him in to the club like via the VIP.

Speaker 4

Entrance and everybody's like, Justin, thanks for being here, and he was like, at least people think I'm Justin Bieber.

They put him on stage and let him perform.

No way.

He was like, I'd like to perform, and then they did, and he performed Shannon a couple of songs before people were like, it doesn't sound like Justin.

Speaker 6

Maybe he's having an off night, you know.

Speaker 4

Yeah, they gave me, well, you know, j Justin Bieber's been having health problem and go through some so they I think they were like, well, he'll find his rhythm.

Speaker 2

Yeah.

Speaker 4

He apparently did multiple songs before somebody was like, yeah, I don't think this is Justin Bieber because they he had asked for them to play his vocal track.

Speaker 7

With it Smart.

Speaker 4

And because he had said, like, you know, I've been struggling with my voice.

So they did, and it took him a few songs to realize Shannon, it was not Justin Bieber and this was like some huge club in Vegas.

They're now embarrassed about it.

Speaker 5

This guy's like, yeah, I performed as Justin Bieber for a few songs and nobody questioned it.

Speaker 3

I'm just gonna go ahead and assume that he wasn't trying to do this.

They just assumed that was him and he just played along.

And if that if I were in that situation, I would probably just play along too.

I mean, when are you ever gonna get the chance to get up on stage and perform in Vegas?

Speaker 4

But it's kind of amazing he got to that point.

Speaker 7

Yeah, once he's up there though, having been in that club or in clubs even that one specifically, you could probably do that with about any artists.

Nobody is paying No, there's usually some things going on.

People are paying that much of attention.

Makes me wonder if I've even seen people that weren't they who they are?

Like, did you say you were usher at one of the clubs?

No, I've said for years, my last ten Jimmy Buffett concerts, they could have put anybody up there singing those songs.

Nobody cared.

So you know, I'm not that surprised he got away with it once he got past the security and got on stage.

Speaker 5

It has to be you know, my whole thing about if you want to sneak into something, act.

Speaker 4

Like you're supposed to be there, right.

Yeah, that takes it to a whole new level.

Speaker 8

Though, Perform what a Boss movie, not just to get into the place.

Yeah, perform, Shannon, get up there on stage and say I can do his songs.

Speaker 3

I wonder what, I mean, what was it that tipped them off that it was not him?

Speaker 4

He was just as they said, he sounded terrible.

Speaker 6

Yeah, and then to kick the guy out that I think they.

Speaker 5

Sort of stopped the music said thank you justin for being here, and then and then kind of got him.

Speaker 2

Got quite a boss move.

He had to think of himself.

I'm gonna try to get in.

Once he gets in, I'm gonna try to get a VIP area.

And then he gets that.

Speaker 6

You're ahead.

Speaker 4

You know, I think it's.

Speaker 7

That's probably I said, Dustin Bieber, you mishurting me.

Speaker 5

It's your fault for thinking it.

H Mark Pope said Trent Noah has been the veteran leader of the team and that he is gone from a freshman who couldn't do anything when he first arrived at Kentucky to now he thinks he's the veteran presence this team will need as a true sophomore on a team full of guys, one of whom played and won a national championship.

Speaker 4

Is that surprised you?

Speaker 2

I praise coming for the guy.

You know, we all thought he was going to be maybe forgotten into this rotation.

Of all these players.

I think that's we're all saving mistaken.

I think the dude has earned his right.

It's gonna get a lot of minutes.

Earned his right last year on the court, earned it even more this summer.

Speaker 7

I can believe that Noah's doing all the right things, but when you look at that roster, it is surprising that he'd be the one to get named as a leader when you have oh Way coming back.

Who's going to be in all American conversations you mentioned you got a guy who just won a national championship.

There's a lot of options that could have stepped up and been the guy.

But to hear a sophomore Trent Noah is leading, that's that's great.

He's gonna still some minutes.

Speaker 4

Mark Pope knows.

Speaker 5

If you're gonna be the veteran leader, you're gonna play like nobody listens to the guy that sits on the bench.

So I guess that means when you're making your rotations, Ryan, you gotta put Trent Noah in them.

Speaker 2

I think, and even you know the TBT guys, they told us the one guy they was mentioned the most that we're impressed with was Trent Noah I guess he kind of dominated one game against the TBT guys, So I think Trent has earned that right if he's doing it on the court, gonna.

Speaker 4

Play, somebody has to not play.

Speaker 5

Like you keep hearing oh way low awesome, right, and then you hear uh Colin Chandlers, you're not gonna able to keep him up court.

That I think Mark Pope said Jasper Johnson had a chance to be the spark club that puts up huge points in short minutes.

Okay, now you get to Trent Noah, somebody's not gonna be able to play.

Speaker 4

Who's it gonna be?

Speaker 5

Like somebody of that group of Aberdeen Noah Diabate and Cam Williams is not playing.

There's just in con Colin Channel somebody that group's not playing.

You still have enough space.

So who is it?

Speaker 7

I really don't know.

I mean, Pope's gonna be We'll use everybody can.

Pope's someone that will use this whole roster.

But he's still like maybe Malachai Moreno disappears.

Speaker 4

But I'm even assuming him because he was a twelfth man.

Speaker 7

But he would start on several teams.

That just shows their depth.

Speaker 5

If he plays, then someone else is not gonna play.

I'm even right now putting Malachi Moreno in the I don't think he plays once Quainton's comes back.

He might play at the end of the year, but I don't think he'd so.

But one of those guys is that the two three four position has to not play.

They have too many people.

Who is And if you had.

Speaker 7

To march in March, I would have said Trent Noah, But then we keep we keep hearing these comments, so it's confusing, and you're hearing he's knocking down every three pointer and he gets in practice.

Speaker 4

I'm gonna say Cam Williams, which I can't believe I'm gonna say.

But I think if if Noah's playing, then who's it gonna be?

You know Aberdeen's playing, It has to be Cam Williams, right.

Speaker 2

I think the abode is gonna have to be gotta be on the court because he's like the other leader they we keep hearing about.

Speaker 7

Came Williams is probably the guy because positionally he's he's more of a wing guard where they're the heaviest you can play.

Speaker 4

Noah was gonna be the one out with Cam Williams playing, But maybe it's flipped because Cam Newillions Williams is also the one guy you don't hear people talk about a lot.

Speaker 2

Did they go maybe go small at the four and maybe Trent gets minutes there?

Speaker 5

Yeah?

Maybe, But I I think you're just early in the year.

Everybody will play.

But I'll be when we get to sec play and they narrow that rotation.

I kind of wonder if he'll be the guy that's not in Free Bird, Go ahead, Free Bird.

Speaker 9

Hey gentlemen, Hey Ryan, Happy belated birthday to a fellow Leo.

Mine was the last Wednesday, And thank you buddy.

Uh, what's the craziest thing that's happened to you all on a golf course?

Like you know, when I'm hitting the house breaking a winda uh years ago, I asked that he ran over a dunk by the pond.

Speaker 4

That's bad.

I almost got in a fight with a doctor from Louisville once.

Speaker 2

Yeah, remember that.

Speaker 4

Appreciate the call like a like.

I came very close to blows with a not just a random louivill fan, but a doctor, like a licensed doctor who would not stop yelling at me.

And I was like, sir, you are a doctor.

Do you recognize that this is not behavior that the medical Board would be appreciating.

So that I think is uh, that's probably up there for me.

You know, I had a hold in the woman.

I was like, ten, Well, what course was that on Mason Heatley par three?

And yes that counts.

No, the course doesn't exist and it was a par three course, but it still counts.

Speaker 2

I had a lighted par three course on Mason.

Speaker 4

It's like one hundred and thirty yards.

I hit a three wood.

Speaker 2

Did it go in?

Speaker 4

Of course it would not have been.

It didn't go I got one when I was fifteen at the Middlesborough Country Club and then I haven't had one since.

Yeah, two before the age of fifteen.

You would have you would have thought I was tiger.

And then there's the much disputed round at Bethpage Black.

Speaker 7

This is controversial.

Speaker 2

Good footage that day, Eugene.

Speaker 4

What's up?

Speaker 10

Hey?

Speaker 11

You's what's going on with y'all?

Speaker 10

To day?

Speaker 4

I get to talk to you, Good to talk to you, stranger.

Speaker 11

Planing to run another night out to dinner with my family.

It's always goodness him out and around and he's taking his boys to dinner.

I think, so it's always good to say.

Speaker 2

Ryan, well, it's nice I get to hang out Eugene for a little bit.

You saw Eugenie in the wild.

Speaker 6

That's right, that's right.

Speaker 11

I wanted to ask you, boy, was what what do you think about this fella's coming over from Croatia?

I'd say his name, but I'm sure I can't.

Speaker 4

I see I think so.

Yeah, I mean, he's twenty one.

It's good.

Nice to hear from Eugene.

I appreciate the call.

He's twenty one.

Speaker 5

And that's the thing I think people do skip over with him is he's older, you know, And I think that makes it.

Speaker 4

I mean Z was young, right, wasn't Z eighteen nineteen?

Speaker 7

He was a little younger.

Speaker 4

This is a twenty one year old, so he's a little bit more of a grown man.

I don't think he comes over here unless he thinks he's gonna play.

Z was young, he knew he had some time, I think, But what do we expect?

Who knows?

Speaker 5

I mean, like played on the same European team that Joki played on, you know, but there's probably dudes that have stunk that have played on that team too, So who knows.

Speaker 7

Yeah, I mean we've we saw that team in the Bahamas, years ago, had fun the casino with them, so we know some guys from that club can maybe not be as focused on.

Speaker 4

Basketball as we need to be.

Speaker 7

It's the same They gave Indiana a good exhibition game here recently, just last week, so they've done a lot of good things.

As far as how he'll translate.

Speaker 2

He could be the one that ends up not playing.

He's the one.

Speaker 7

Like I said this yesterday, I have no clue.

If he was starting in the NCAA tournament wouldn't surprise me, Or if he was last on the bench, couldn't get out street clothes, would surprise.

Speaker 4

What do you think, by the way, about the anonymous quote from the SEC saying Kentucky's playing paying two to three or four times more than any other school in the conference, they better win it.

See that quote.

Speaker 7

Yeah, I think there's a little bit of messaging going around.

That's part of coaches making excuses for Kentucky having a good roster, and then Pope kind of embracing it, wanting to flaunt that they have the big roster.

Somebody like the Norlanders story.

Some of these seem like outrageous numbers, but that's what.

Speaker 4

You're saying.

Speaker 5

It a lot of these SEC schools are upset that Kentucky and Florida had money and the football programs got the money at their school.

Speaker 7

And they wanted to be known so that the greater recurved.

Speaker 5

I asked Matt Norlanders specifically, tell me the schools that will be hurt the most by the rev share tech thing.

Speaker 4

And he goes, Auburn and Alabama.

Speaker 2

There's all their money, I go to football.

Speaker 4

That was the first two he said, was Auburn and Alabama.

I think that's interesting, and I wonder if one of those quotes might be from Auburn or Alabama.

If I'm nine to two, eight oh twenty two eighty seven, we'll take a break right back to cancer.

Speaker 5

Welcome back, take you sports radio.

E.

If I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven, we have some breaking news.

Shitning running non John Wall has officially retired from playing basketball after eleven NBA seasons and in another couple of years of being hurt and trying to trying to get back, he is retiring from the NBA.

You could be forgiven if you thought he was actually hasn't played in a couple of years, But I think he has wanted to come back.

I'm gonna go ahead and say I've said this many times.

No bigger star has played at Kentucky in my lifetime than John Wall, one of my Also, I really like him as a person, And in my opinion, when you're talking about the turnaround of Kentucky basketball that occurred after Billy Gillespie, the person who deserves the most credit is John cal Perry.

But the person that deserves the second most credit ryan is John Wall.

Speaker 2

He made Kentucky basketball cool again, just in an instant.

Once again, we were there with a team everybody envious of.

I think, really in my lifetime two rock stars Rex and John Wall.

Those two guys are there's a big gap between the next guy.

Speaker 4

Yeah, they're the He's the guy.

And I say this like I'll talk to people who are like in college or whatever for now and they'll talk to me about this or that player, and I'll say, unless you lived through the John Wall experience in Lexington, Like as much as people loved Oscar or as much as people love pick your guy, there was just a different thing around John Wall.

There's just a different there was just a different like mystique kind of around him.

That I don't think was replaced even by the many great players that came along after.

He just had a different thing.

Speaker 7

Yeah, he's a rock star, like we probably won't see it again.

And short of winning the title, I mean he pretty much lived up to it here.

He was awesome in his one season really before injuries got him in the NBA, he was a rock star there too.

Speaker 4

I mean they still use like I still use UK.

Speaker 5

See UK students as they are moving on campus this year, they come up on my TikTok feed Shannon and and they're playing that little thing.

Speaker 6

Six four from Kentucky.

Speaker 12

Shit.

Speaker 4

Well, like they're still doing that moving into the UK dorm and those kids were like three when that happened.

Speaker 2

Yeah, just I had no memory of John Wall obviously.

Speaker 4

The other thing is it was pre social media, huh.

So that's why there was still a mystique around, Like he wasn't doing TikTok videos, right, he wasn't.

Speaker 5

He wasn't accessible.

There were not nil signings, there were not meet and greets.

He there was a mistaque.

Speaker 4

You didn't seem around town, right, Yeah, he was just this John Wall and like that that won't happen again.

You can't have that.

Speaker 5

Mistique around people anymore.

Like the only person I can think of in culture today that has that mystique is like Taylor Swift.

She has that mistake because she doesn't do a lot of interviews.

She doesn't like there's a little mistaque around her.

Speaker 4

John Wall is like the only person I can think of in the I don't know that you'll have that again at Kentucky, do you no?

Speaker 7

I mean, if you were lucky enough to see him at you know, Taly horror waffle house late one night or they're show up your frat party.

Was almost like seeing Bigfoot and you know you're texting everybody you possibly know, even if you just walk past Wall and Cousins on the street.

Speaker 4

Yeah, he didn't even go out either.

That's another thing, Like you could see DeMarcus because DeMarcus was enjoying his year a little bit, although not as much as people think.

Some of those other guys on the team were out all but you never saw John Wall really.

Speaker 7

It was like so even now, his highlight real Like there's a few football players they're like famous YouTube highlights, like Tavon Austin.

There's a couple Wall's high school highlight has kind of become this thing in law.

Speaker 4

Also, the people didn't somebody just talking you the guy that did it.

Yeah, it's like its own thing.

Yeah.

Speaker 5

And then if you can find there are a lot of people.

If you go to YouTube again, if you're younger and you're like, go watch that, there's a video somebody has put up of the highlights of him in the UK North Carolina game.

Yeah, everybody has seen that crossover dunk, but I thought forgot all the other stuff he did.

That one steel where he comes around and he shoots a layup behind his head and gets fouled off the bat.

Speaker 4

That's one of the greatest plays I've ever seen.

Speaker 2

And he gets down the court in like half a second, the fastest guy I've ever seen it from one in the court.

Speaker 4

And then of course there's the dance.

Yep, like the dance started at all.

Speaker 5

Now everybody does dances all the time, but like that was as stupid channing as this little thing is.

Speaker 4

Yeah, right, it took off, though, it totally took off.

And yeah, there just won't be another John Wall So I hope whatever he does next it goes great.

David, go ahead, David.

Speaker 10

Yes, Yes, Matt and Ryan.

I've got a question for each of you from two weeks ago Friday.

Yes there, yes, okay, right, you mentioned the cemetery in the Hamburg location.

Yes, would that be the one between Sir Barton Way and the Walmart Lows?

Speaker 2

Yes, yes, it is.

Speaker 10

That is a horse cemetery.

Speaker 4

For what it's worth, it's a horse cemetery.

Speaker 10

Yes, one of the nicest ones in the nation.

I would say it was moved from the hillside on Winchester Road for the road that came up to Low's and Starbucks.

Speaker 4

And then what's your second question?

Speaker 10

Matt, I am so excited about your fellowship and your non fellowship and your non fellowship trip to South Africa.

And the big question for me is are you going to pack your cowboy hat?

Speaker 5

No, it's too hard to fire across the world.

With that, I appreciate the call.

So I am like, I'm starting official prem for South bast it's coming up.

I've been reading books.

There's a book called The Elephant Whisper.

It's a little too long.

It's a little too long, but it's good.

Speaker 4

It's interesting.

Speaker 5

It's about this guy who run who like ran a nature preserve and he started like talking to elephants, and I've learned all about elephants.

Speaker 4

You know, elephants are very smart.

Speaker 5

You know, elephants are like the only animals they're like if one of their animals, their herd, dies, they'll remember the spot and they'll come and mourn at the spot.

They like understand like they speak to each other through like what like sound waves via their movements across the like it's a fascinating thing.

And I'm getting ready.

And what I'm learning having read this is like being out in the bush.

As they say for the Safaris, that's gonna be like they say, you know, these animals, they is come up to you, like, look, there's a line leopard.

Speaker 4

What do you know?

Speaker 2

What do you plan to do?

Speaker 4

And one we'll say hi and just hope that I'm just gonna have to assume.

Speaker 6

That these people get your pocket knife out.

Speaker 4

I'm assuming that they're safe, because the one thing I learned in the Elephant Book is if these elephants want to kill you, you're dead.

Like there's nothing you can do about it.

So you just got to hope you hide, bind those non women, you just ladies, You go fires build a wall.

So but I'm looking forward to it.

Although I'm a little nervous.

I won't won't act like I'm not.

We'll be right back.

TJ.

Smith, personal injury attorney, called TJ.

Speaker 1

He'll make them pay.

Speaker 3

No more of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage.

Speaker 6

Here's Matt Jones and the whole.

Speaker 5

State doing this.

Yes, for years.

I mean we weren't the only people.

This was a big song, but you know, I mean they were like other athletes in other sports doing it.

Speaker 7

And then John Wall spawned his own songs.

There were multiple John Wall songs, but I still listen to today.

Speaker 4

Really, Yeah, the do the John Wall was that one of them.

That's the best one.

Speaker 7

There was some lower budget versions out there that Bernie's good, but that's the one that's starting.

Speaker 4

I don't know what is an ice cream paint job or do I want to know?

Yeah?

Speaker 7

You know what, maybe experence stream on the inside and clean on the outside.

Speaker 4

Yeah, if I'm nine eight twenty two car, what it's your car?

Okay?

Yeah?

Speaker 6

No double meaning there.

Speaker 4

Uh, it's like a way that you can get a car painted like it's exactly what they're talking about.

Okay, good to know.

Speaker 5

One person writes Matt, You're gonna love South Africa.

Although my wife is very concerned about your safety.

I get asked that all the time, about the whole safety.

Yeah, like I get I probably probably once a day somebody comes up to me and says like, I mean, they say it shange like I've never heard the news.

Speaker 6

Like I'm breaking it to you for the first time.

Speaker 4

You know, reciate the concern, but like that.

Again, it's the same thing when I talk about New York.

Speaker 5

Like a lot of people, I understand people are like nervous about what they don't know, but I'm sure it's like other places.

You just have to be weary of where you are right and just make good decisions.

I mean, I've read about all I can read about these places, and Cape Town I think is the vast majority of it fine.

Johannesburg, I know, has some more serious issues, but again, if you stay in the right places, you're probably fine.

Speaker 4

You are fine.

And then you know, the safari thing is like there's a lot of people that have done it.

Speaker 2

So I think you know, UK Punter or Aiden la Ross gave you some really good advice and I think you know, trusting you about just going out with somebody.

Don't go by yourself, don't go out at night.

Just be with somebody all the time and you'll be fine.

Speaker 4

My Safari group just had another woman join.

It is now ten women and me.

Speaker 7

There's more people on the front line when you fight the elephant.

Speaker 4

Yeah.

I've looked at the other group, Shannon.

They all include multiple men except this one.

Speaker 3

I mean, I don't think that's a bad thing.

I think you use that to your advantage.

Speaker 4

Well, it's not.

It's not about that.

This is about the nature.

Speaker 2

Oh yeah, he steps up.

Speaker 4

I am a little concerned about the being mainly part because they're gonna expect me to do things.

Speaker 2

Yes, they are, like I'm.

Speaker 4

Gonna have to carry people's luggage, you know, like I must.

Speaker 5

I already know I might have to help people Like well, I mean, it's just like this is the this is the growing up in the South.

Like I'm not you know, anything that's gonna need to be done.

They're gonna be looking at me, whereas like in Kentucky, I just look at Hubby and I'm like, this is a hubby thing to do.

Speaker 3

They might be independent women who can do it theirself.

Speaker 4

I'm sure they are independent.

I'm not saying they all need me, but I'm still gonna feel like I gotta like there's a puddle, I gotta like throw my Yeah, I mean I feel like, you know, I'm that those are gonna be the kind of things that that would do, that would be very sweet.

That's probably over the top and unnecessary.

Did you buy the pocket knife at the fair on Friday?

Speaker 5

Yeah, so, Shannon, I was gonna I was gonna buy a heavy of pocket knife.

And then you know, there's a lot of people that said men should pick their own pocket knives.

I didn't realize it was that you could have gotten your own though.

That's what I'm asking.

Speaker 4

Did you mean the case, like I any gift someone gives me, I'm gonna accept.

I'm not gonna be like I guess if somebody came up to me and gave me like boxer briefs, I would think that's weird.

But like, I don't feel like a knife, it's so personal.

You can't buy another person a pocket knife.

Speaker 2

Is that they just want to be able to pick the style to look.

Speaker 5

I want to buy a pocket knife place and seventy five percent of them said Trump.

So I wasn't gonna buy those, and then a lot of them were like camouflage, and I just went, well, well.

Speaker 6

That's what you need.

Speaker 3

That wakens new get past security.

Next time it's camouflage, you just walk right on.

Speaker 4

Yeah, didn't it didn't work.

The didn't work the last time.

Speaker 7

Are you more worried about the wildlife in south as the dangerous.

Speaker 4

Parts of the cities.

I'm not worried about any of it.

Speaker 7

So you're not worried about like getting trampled by nothing.

Speaker 5

I'm not the I'm not worried about I don't get worried about that kind of stuff.

Speaker 2

You know.

Speaker 5

My view is your time is your time when it comes, like if you make good decisions, you know you can't.

It's like I always say about people in your house.

If somebody wants to get you, they'll get you.

It's they want to get in, they're going to get in.

Yes, So a lot of times I think a lot of security stuff is for you, not them.

Speaker 4

Yeah, you know what I mean.

It makes you feel good, right you go to these places.

I mean there are millions of people that go to these countries every.

Speaker 2

Year, right, Like the it's got to be smart about it.

Speaker 4

There's no reason to be scared.

You can be scared and safe and never experience life.

Right.

So, if I'm blessed enough to be able to do a trip like this, how can you not do it?

Speaker 2

Gota enjoy every second of it?

Speaker 4

How can you?

Speaker 2

I mean, how can you not give it a lifetime?

Speaker 13

Man?

I got it?

Speaker 5

I mean just think about just from like a blessing standpoint.

I got a phone call three and a half years ago from a woman I did not know who had read an article on the internet about me and said, we would like you to be part of this group to where you get to travel the world for free.

Right, the first part of my trip is free.

I have to pay for the second part for free, be.

Speaker 4

With twenty five of the most interesting people in the country, and at the end of it, become part of this group where you have networks with everyone in the world.

Speaker 2

You can't turn it down.

Speaker 4

And why because you do a sports radio show in Kentucky.

Like that's crazy, So to turn that down would be insane.

Remember we were supposed to go to Israel.

Now, Shannon, I might have been scared about that.

Speaker 6

Yeah, yeah, there's certain this was supposed.

Speaker 4

To be an Israel trip and then they switched it to South as right, A good switch today probably the another time.

Speaker 5

Yeah, so if I'm nine eight twenty two eighty seven, the Kentucky high school football season starts Friday, Yes it does.
