Yeah, Malachai Marino, Jasper Johnson and Sissy Keeks. Yes, so think about who all's gonna be at the show Friday. Oh, Malachai and Jasper are gonna be there? Yes. I didn't know that. Yeah. And then Sissy Keeks. Sissy Keeks. The Lexington debut of Sissy Keeks as well. I can't wait for breakfast. Is it bad that I'm more excited about Sissy Keeks than the players? All right. Malachai Marino was at the bar. He was after the game. We passed literally as I left, he got there. And when he left, I got there. Really? Crutch said, you guys literally just missed him. He showed up right after you left and I showed up right after Malachai left. Yeah, I heard his crew was having a party. Yeah. I love the crew. He was still their party in, but he was gone. Yeah, so anyway, we 859-280-287

on the Clarks Puppet Shop phone line, a Vision Auto Glass text machine 772-7745254 in this edition sponsored by the TJ Smith Law office. We call TJ, he'll make him pay. We're all here this weekend after a great weekend, great weekend in basketball. You had Kentucky win, you had high school and regional and our high school district finals, Calipari Fought Todd Golden, which I thought was exciting. And as far as how everything worked out, pretty good for Kentucky for the postseason, all the teams that kind of were where they were in the bracket, they all tended to lose. We won Drew, so good weekend for the cat. It's great weekend. Sunday we'll get to not the best, but Saturday, perfect day in Lexington, like the weather was great. That 2 p.m. time slot is such a good time for Saturday game because you get the downtown's got a little bit going on before than everybody out after. And then to finally just have a complete game and win like that. I know big blue nation is still thrilled two days later. I know I am, haven't been there. Yeah, two is good. I will tell you, I like as a restaurant or four.

For me, basketball, football I've decided to sweet spot his night games. Because people just come all day. And then basketball, the sweet spot is four because you get before and after. Two is good, but four is better. And we get four, I think this Saturday. Is that an important game, or four does it for? So that's good. How awesome was it to sit back and watch your team play and not be anxious or frustrated? Just enjoy the game, watch your team play well and have a big win. And then it just kind of carried out through the whole weekend. Everybody, everybody, what about the win? I mean, you're tucking not only one, but controlled the game from start to finish. Absolutely. That was the old, you know, the prime Kentucky basketball SEC home game, getting early lead and just kind of control it the whole time. Never after a certain point, they never got closer than 10. Pretty much the rest of the game. Maybe got to seven a couple of times, but that's it. Yeah, Vandy led like three to two. And then for the next 38 minutes, it was all Kentucky. I'll admit I had my guard up even with like five minutes left.

I did too. It made me think of you and I sitting there watching Kentucky Indiana in the sweet 16. And I was like, you know, they could hit a three here. And you two was like, we're gonna win. Shut up. He got mad at me sitting there. I feel like I felt like that a little bit. I probably had a little more negative energy than I should, even though I had a blast. I kept thinking, oh, God, at any moment. But I mean, just a fun day, especially Chandler started off with five, three's in the first half, two in the opening minutes, really set the tone and made it a fun afternoon. Well, there's a lot of, I think this Kentucky game, Ryan, they did about everything you would want to do to have success with this team. Yes. Came out and hit threes, Chandler hits threes, which immediately opens the floor for people. Immediately. It opens the floor to owe away for driving lanes. It gives Malachi the ability to go one-on-one in the post and instead of always getting double teamed, they get out and transition. So they come out, shooting threes well, then excellent defense, especially early. I'd say the first 25 minutes of the game

was the best defense I played all year. Oh, I agree. And I think Malachi kind of set the tone. And they pushed him around down a Nashville. He came out and he hit first. They ran a play for him right off the bat and he was not sure. And I watched your yellow bitches and your garrison sliding their feet and doing well. Diabate, they go to the bench, which is worried us all year and then Jasper and garrison and Diabate, they basically keep the lead the same. When they're in there, and in the second half, I think they even extended the lead when they were in there exactly what you'd want for the bench. Yeah, away in Chandler, the highlights of 23 points of peace, but I think that group surviving that wave there. I didn't love Chandler sitting when he was on fire, but you know, I've got worried that stretch that's hurt them so much, but that group, especially with Jasper hit in a three and Garrison kind of kept himself in check. And a few moments where his eyes got wide, but he's gonna have a couple of those. Yeah, even Noah didn't hit a shot, you know, he ended up going the whole month without a bucket, but he had a few big defensive plays in there too.

So that group did well in keeping the lead. And then Aberdeen, I thought was great. He was actually a star to the second half, kind of had his little run where he controlled it. And then really from the middle of the second half, from the 15, 13 minute mark of second half on, oh wait, just had a great game. Aberdeen again, no turnovers. It's amazing to me, the point guard, he's become, I didn't see that coming. 16 assists and one turnover in the last four game. I didn't see that coming from him. That's an amazing staff for him. Yes, it is. 16 assists, one turnover in the last four games against playing 35 minutes plus a game. And then he also can hit the shot and he's got the open shot. So he has surprised me probably more than anybody this whole season. Number two on guy you want to take a three. I mean, it's Chandler and then him, right? He's no doubt. No doubt. And he's hit some, some timely ones, some contested ones, you know, oh wait, he's been knocking down when he gets open looks. But Aberdeen's had some big moments where he said them too, especially in the last game where he had back to back on a 10 on run.

I mean, he's had some key times in games. So I thought he had an excellent performance. I was ready, you know, I was ready to kind of square up for Brandon Garrison when they hit him in the face. I was like, listen, you know me, you and BG sometimes, sometimes we can, I can get frustrated, you know what? You're my guy. I'm going to roll with you. I mean, I got in the stance. I was ready. You were in the stance. I was in the stance, Shannon, because that was a dirty hitty hit him in the face after the whistle. There's that. I'm about to take your picture stance. You were in. Oh, no, I was about to, I was about to, to, to, to fail, you know, yeah, watching onesie. I was in the onesie two Z stands. I think BG can probably fight his own fight. You can say that, but I mean, I was there. Yeah, he's back. I was more ready to fight than Todd Golden was against Cal Perry when he pulled the guy in front of me when I talk about later. I can't wait to talk about that one, but, but I, but I was, you know, I was taken up for him. Haven't been there. That was a cool moment because we all have had frustrations with Garrison. He's kind of been a little bit of a punching bag for the fan base this year.

But when he almost got his head knocked off, 20,000 people stood up just like you just did with their fist. Ready to, ready to defend him. That was the loudest moment again. So I found myself also, this is the bad part about being friends with Tom Hart. I decided Tom Hart needs my point of view, even though he's calling the game, because I'm listening to Hart and Bradshaw and they're looking at the replay and at first they just keep going, well, I mean, it's to his face, but it was intentional. But I'm sitting there going, it was after the whistle. That's the point. Like, leave a side of it, hit him in the face. It was after the whistle. That wasn't even the, and I felt like they didn't know. Yeah. So I just picked my phone up and I was like, Tom Hart, it was, and then I capitalized after the whistle. And then about that time, I know I'm behind the action. Then Bradshaw or Hart, one of them goes, well, this is after the whistle and I, I had just sent the text.

I was like, they're going to think I'm stupid because I think they've already said. I don't think a lot of the Kentucky players even saw it either otherwise. I think there would have been a bigger blow up than what there was. Good point. Yeah. It's nearly as bad until you got on your phone and saw that slow mo camera angle where you see his neck. But people didn't realize the foul happened the other guy committed the foul. Nickel. Nickel. And then the poop was after, they should have kicked him out. It's after the whistle. You can't be doing, it's bad enough if he didn't play. Yeah, Shannon's right. I didn't think about that. The other players really didn't react. I guess they didn't see it. They may not have seen it because they had stopped like they were supposed to cause the whistle. It didn't help. It was just a few seconds after that phantom leg kick on Chandler. So Chandler gets called for just barely sticking his leg out and then Garrison loses his head. I almost sent a text to Tom about that. Well, because Bradshaw was like, well, that's not his normal follow through. He kicked farther and I wanted to be like, what are you talking about? That's the problem with having access to those people, to those guys.

So I held myself. He did do a left vocal cord, right vocal cord drop. He did. I didn't hear him as they were happening. I guess they were so subtle. I didn't hear the left vocal. You did a bad county meet shower. I did hear that one. I did hear that one. But that was what you think of that call. That's a stupid call. It's horrible call. The kicking leg out thing. That's supposed to be when you kick it to the side or even when you kick it under when they think you're trying to hurt him. That was just, he was just moving forward. It was kind of his natural shot. I mean, sure it was out a little bit, but not worth an offensive foul and I felt bad and robbed him. I think you would have been seven of nine at that point. Yeah. That's right. That's right. If he had made it, maybe he goes for Jody Meeks and get, tries to get for the 10 and then being in rub when they blew the whistle, we thought, or at least I thought he got fouled. There was an and one. And we had the emotion of my goodness and four point play to what that was that? How hot has he been in the last couple of weeks? Oh, Chandler is just on fire. Did you see that Doug Shals doing the game set the record for most games? I did see that past John Clocker.

Past John Clockerty. And you know, I remember my grandfather with John Clockerty, the old school fans did not like John Clockerty, you know, the whole going at it with SEC refs must be in my blood. Because I remember my, he hated John Clockerty and Don Rutledge. Another good name. Yeah. Tell me, you know what, rap by name. It's not good. It's not good for a good reason. We know what? Pat Adams and Doug Shals. Although it wasn't Doug Shals Saturday was that guy who called the kick. I don't know his name. Doug Shalsley didn't get in the spotlight much on Saturday. See, I liked how they ref that game until those couple plays, didn't call a lot of files. Yeah. As they let him play and I actually thought it worked out. I thought it made the game a lot more entertained. Yeah, he had a bar and Jared and Will Howard with him. Oh, see, I don't know those guys. I think when my family was definitely Clockerty, like everyone else's, then when he left, they're like, well, we gotta be mad at someone and Tony Green had a long run. Tony Green did have, and we, I really liked Tony Green. And then Tony kind of shifted to Doug here in the last several years.

Tony doesn't do it anymore, does he? No, no, no. So we have, who are the ones we know now? Joe Lindsay. Joe Lindsay, yeah, I don't like him. Yeah. Who's Doug Shals? What's the one that looks like Shannon Sermon Sermon Sermon Sermon? Doug Sermon, yeah. I don't think he's an SEC that guy. I feel like we only see him in the tournament. He was doing some other SEC games, but he hasn't done our games this year. I don't, probably because he looks like Shannon. He doesn't even look like me at all. He looks kind of like you in the tournament. Sometimes I wonder if you guys have even looked at me before, when you say, I can't really, but I think it's weird how many people you look like. Let me tell you, I don't even bring up. The text machine gets free, Shannon the dude looks like this guy week. Yeah. You have a lot of them. Because I'm so handsome. There's a lot of handsome men out there. That's what it is. Yeah, I think it's just because you have a look. I feel like you had a, you have a lot of extended family. I mean, who's the one that was the one that was the most Shannon?

Sermons is up there. It was a singer, a rock and roll singer that looked dead on Shannon. I don't remember who it was. Well, and to be fair, Mr. Rogers puppet is. Well, you look like howdy-duty. And see that you always bring that, you get so bad. Why does the Mr. Rogers puppet make you so upset? Because you say I look like a puppet. It's a good looking puppet. What puppet were we talking about though, is it? The handsome one. No, it's actually I think it's a woman. Was the king the king on there? No, not the king. Calm down. I can't remember which puppet it was, but it was a lady, a lane. Lady? I don't know which one it was. I don't know why. But I remember when they sent it anyway, so who else? You got Doug Sermons. Courtney Green now, we know. Yeah, yeah. Because of the one game. Courtney Green does not look like me. No, Courtney Green does not look like you. I'm just riffs. I tell you, I can't name his name. I miss the hot step for so much. He's still around college basketball games. Yeah, he does, though. But he was so fun. Yeah, 8.59, 2.80, 2.87.

See, the only problem with winning is more listeners, less phone, no phone calls. So the one thing is interesting because like you people, I do think the, the listership oddly is the same or up if we win, but when it comes to interaction and calls, winning, like, it's just I guess the natural thing. It's something to remember in the comment section. When people are raging to get something, the comment section, most people, if they're happy, just go, okay, it's good. But when they're mad, they post something. So if you just look at the comments, you go, you're getting lit up. No, it's most people are like, oh, that's good. Yeah, we won. Not as many phone calls when you win, because nothing they complain about. Even even on Twitter, like if I look at my replies, when we win, nothing they complain about. Nothing they complain about. But it was nice. It felt like Lexington was happy Saturday. It absolutely was. I even went out. I don't go out. And I even went out. Maybe we went to KS4 about there at eight o'clock, still kind of a buzzing from the game. The win earlier than the after.

Did you get wild? No, no, I just went to dinner at, it's a name of the place, 3-10, what'd you think of it? I liked it. What kind of food is it? It's Caribbean food. I liked it. They got some duck fried rice. They just put ducks in there and fried it. And it was good. It's bowel buns. Yeah, we got one of those. It was a lot of it. It was a, it was a happening crowd. Way more happening. And then Sunday, I went to my first, probably in 20 plus years, kids basketball games. See my friend, a hubby and Sarah's son play. Did you realize? Max getting buckets. Max was getting bucket. Oh, there was a kid saying, look, just like me. Glasses taller than everybody else. Dorky. Getting buckets, though. Like he, I think he was the only player in double digits. Was he really? And I was, I, even though he wasn't on Max's team, was kind of cheering him on. Yeah. So to the warrior's big man, whenever your name is,

I know your three or four inches taller than everybody else. And that can be awkward right now, but you just remember you're getting buckets. Yeah. And one day you could be hosting on the radio. When they took him out, they sent a mention, read a math book. Maybe, but he had a left hand. Yeah. Yeah, I was, I mean, I was four Max's team, but I was kind of like, you get, you get yours. I understand. Bullcut haircut. Yeah. Hubby had said, there's a dude that looks like you. And he did. And he did. I will say after the, after the game, though, they told me something. I have concerns about this. You know, Southland Christian church, right? Do you know Southland? A lot of people. I guess they're minister Shan and got up at Lent and said for Lent, I want you all to take some meat, take the media, news and sports. And just as a way of cleansing for Lent, turn them all off for however long Lent is.

That's why we weren't getting any calls in the first segment. And so someone came up to me after. One was like, all the husbands got together and they asked what they missed the most and they were all saying KSR. Oh, man. Now, she was like, so I just want you to know if you've seen a dent in your ratings, the Southland men and women are sad we don't get to listen to you right now. Now, presumably, if they're hearing this right now, that's true. They're cheating. That's true. They're cheating. But I don't like this Southland. Like in theory, do I like the idea toon out the noise for 30 days? Sure. But that can't include us. Not this noise. I think they meant like new. That's right. Fox news, CNN, toon that out. It's always an exception to everything. We're the exception. But she said it, she was like these men and women at Southland, they're like, they're missing it. I like the idea you find these guys like hiding the garage in the dark. I know KSR in the corner. So listen, there's one of you all

at Southland hearing. Listen, right now. Feel free to tell the others. It's okay to skip. It's okay. I won't tell your minister. We wouldn't tell you. He's probably not wearing a suit anyway. Yeah. I won't tell him. And dear Southland minister, it's lit. Make him give something else up. Why'd you say you had to give up this? Yeah, I don't like this. I don't either. We've done shows with Southland in the past. Yeah, I spoke at their men's conference. It's a great place. So for those of you all that are cheating, I promise you I won't tell. It's okay. All right, let's go to Jacob. Go ahead, Jacob. Hey guys. Good morning. My top three partially KSR can tell you why I'm okay. It's in my kids. No, no, it's fine. We should flip the order. Let's put the kids first and then go from there. Oh, that's my bad. I got dyslexia. Great game. Side of day, man. Great game.

What do as far as, I mean, we've seen what Florida did against Arkansas Saturday as well. What are our odds of Florida coming to rub and us getting a win? I mean, if we play like we did Saturday, we're going to be awesome. They're not high, but it's not impossible. I appreciate the call. I mean, I would say you play that Kentucky Florida game in rub three times we win one. I think they would win two of three. I think we would win one of three. I mean, I think you've got a 33 to 40% chance. And I think that's pretty good to be honest with you. You're in line with Kempon. It gives them a 31% chance. Okay. And I know better than the computer than it's going to be wild. Your analytics are just a little sharp. Because I hear when the computer does. Really, they hung with them for the whole game. It's in games that looks up that start. We're leaving buses for threes. They got up by 10, but then Kentucky just kind of stayed down the same amount for most of the game. Just if you can play a complete game, anything like you did against Vandy, yeah, they're more capable of playing it.

The key is it gets Vandy. First of all, how about the stats that Vandy shot 73% from two? Yes. And we still won the game easily, easily. They shot 73% from two, Shannon. Maybe they should have shot more twos in less three. Well, they're more of a three point shooting team, but not Saturday. They couldn't hit them. Yeah, I'm Saturday. They played good. And I mean, they missed some open ones, but we also did a pretty good job contesting at the line. Yes. It's just crazy. They waxed us down in Nashville. We looked awful. And then they come here to rub and it's exact opposite. We looked good and they looked awful. They could tell it's like they could make anything. They can beat anybody if they play. Yeah, exactly. The tall kid in the game. Yeah. What did he do? Oh, you know, he get fouled all the time. So he's big, but the reps don't call it. They're biased against the tall guys. I felt for him. You knew you could experience that fucking your day. Now, when he shot free throws, he wasn't a great free throw shooter, but he had the left hand. Yeah. But it was tough because hubby and Sarah right there,

I don't want to root against their kids team. Plenty against it. I like that the tournament had seven professional, like the names of the teams, seven like NBA teams. It was like the Warriors, the Celtics, Lakers. And then hubby and Sarah's kids name, they were just the hurricanes. They're not an NBA team. Franchise team. Spanchise team. And they had a color scheme that was completely different. I like that. You know what? We were going to be the Chicago Bulls. We're just going to be the, you know, Alvacados. Why not? But the people get into it. Oh, yeah. I'll tell you what, I don't, where do they find the referees for the kids games? Yeah. I used to be a craft. I would not want to be one of those guys. They, I'll tell you this. I watched them. They had no care in the world. They just blow the whistle. Somebody'd say something. They'd just look at them and then hand the kid the ball. I coached a seven year old team one season and I had a few moments with refs. They need to hear it in that league too. Did you? Yeah. I was here in Scarf's people who got, who got one,

they were telling me a story about the youth basketball league or football league there. The police had to escort a coach out of the games. Did it happen? Wow. You got to defend your kids. They're getting, defend them against what? If they're getting hosed by the refs, got to let them know. It doesn't matter if they're set on their zone. Where do you think the, you think the refs have a bias towards either the warriors or the Hurricanes? Yeah. I had a big moment when I was coaching Hudson Automotive. Oh, he coached that. Yeah. Jamshed Game. Wow. Well, we at Walter's pharmacy would have taken you down. We'll be right back. TJ Smith, personal injury attorney called TJ. He'll make him pay. Now, more Kentucky sports radio presented by Stockton Mortgage. Here's Matt Jones. All right. So if we're looking at the people that look like Shannon, Doug Sermons, he looks like old Shannon. They could WB Brothers. He definitely could be Brothers. And then what's the name of the singer you all just showed? It looks like the lead singer of Over the Rainbow. I think his name is Joe. Joe. Over the rainbow. Shannon with long hair. They're going to just go glint over the rainbow.

Joe, first of all, their Google searches are going to go way up. Over the rainbow. Oh, wow. Joe. And his name is Joe. I am going to look. This is what he looks like now. I don't think, I don't think Shannon looks like this. No. No, he doesn't look like that. At him today. No. Well, there you go. There you go. Oh, my goodness. That's Shannon. That looks like female Shannon. That's Shannon. Wow. I can't see it. My good Shannon. Oh, Joe Lynn Turner, Joe Lynn Turner on Over the Rainbow. Joe Lynn Turner. Now, don't the one that he's bald, the way she has hair before he goes bald. That looks like female Shannon. Holy cow. That's the closest of anybody I've ever seen. Look like Shannon. That guy did on. Joe Lynn. No. No. Joe Lynn the dude, 8.592802027, one person writes, Matt, what about the nicknames that people

came up for AOC for Aberdeen, O.A. and Chandler. So no, excuse me, O.A. said he was calling his the Aberdeen O.A. Chandler group, the three headed goat. And you first of all, do you like that night? I do not. Yeah, I don't really either. It doesn't really. It doesn't really go off the tongue. No. And they're not really something you want to be unless we're talking about greatest of all time. We're talking about it. I think that's what I mean. It's so great. It's the ball. It's the greatest of all times. There's only one. You can't. And there are no three headed goats. No, there's a two headed goat, but not three. So I didn't love it. But you know, that's what they like. And then someone called in the show, Shannon, and said, what about AOC? No, I'm sure you love that one. I thought excellent. Yes. But I don't know if that's going to be embraced by the fan base. Most of our fan base probably not going to AOC is going to is going to quite hit. Probably not, but I mean, they could she could come be the why on Saturday. I'm sure I don't know how well that would work either.

In a different time in American history, maybe you could have done that. I think people wouldn't have people won't won't like it as much as much now. So lit is 40 days, 40 days. Yeah. And there's no KSR. Yes. Now, there are people who are saying to me that they think Southland didn't mean KSR. This person told me that there were a lot of people like a lot of people who were taking it as KSR. Tune out the noise. Now, I will say this about, I understand like Easter is when it is, right? I get it. But it's March. That's fun. A lot of people tune in. Are you telling people to tune out basketball in March? I guess Lint started when we were in a little dark spot before the Vandy game. Maybe that maybe they thought they were going to ignore a bad finish. Even if you're just a casual like this is the time. I agree. So maybe there's a loophole. You can't listen live, but you can listen to podcast. I don't know. I didn't get the rules.

I think a lot of them are sitting in their car hiding lying to people. I understand. Let's go to Nancy. Go ahead, Nancy. Hey, Matt and guys, okay. So great game on Saturday. I was able to, my language didn't get quite as bad on Saturday. Good. I have a question. So my friend works for Butler. When I watch the Butler games, they always comment like, well, they've lost their point guard. They've lost. Do they ever say that about Kentucky? I mean, we've lost three good players. They do. I think you just like, probably like it goes, like when you watch Butler, you're watching them for the first time. Most, it's probably Butler's only on TV. I hand full of times of the year so that they don't think they're on, they're on a lot. Yeah, they're on a lot, they're on FF1, you know, whatever. I think they say, I think they said, I think they talk, especially about J and low, being out quite a bit. They mentioned him a lot, maybe not Cam and Quaintants, but I feel like they mentioned

a lot, especially when they show Aberdeen. They'll say, well, you know, he wasn't supposed to play this position, etc. Right. I do hear that. So does that affect our seating? I mean, will that affect, you know, because they're not playing. I mean, the one of the things that committee does Nancy is they are seating the team that you have when the tournament starts. So, okay. So the fact that we lost those guys will not help us. They will see the team that's going into the tournament. Okay. Okay. Got it. Okay. Okay. Well, thank you and I love your show. Listen all the time. Okay. Appreciate it. Yeah. I mean, that's, they're very adamant about that. So, you know, we won't get credit, I guess, for guys being hurt because those guys are not going to play. So it won't matter. And when you're looking at Kentucky right now, with the way Aberdeen's playing, you're not like, wow, they're one point guard away. You know, low should be there. No, he's playing pretty awesome. He is. It might not even change anything if low. We're healthy. Yeah. Let's go to Casey. Go ahead, Casey.

Hey, sellers. Good morning. I just had to talk with a couple of things. And so Tom Hart killed it on Saturday. He is one of us. He's doing, he's doing Tuesday nights game as well. You see, yeah. Oh, that's exciting. So, but then the second thing I had, everybody has to go listen to that post game show because it was incredible. Like I never laughed out loud as hard as I did with UK fish. No, he's, I didn't give you. I did give you. I hope you guys have a great day. Appreciate the call, Casey. I did get a little giddy because the guy, it's because a woman called in and said she had an aquarium where she named all the fish after the UK players on that team. So there was a tassion in the Keith Bocons. And I was like, what was there a Gerald Fitch? And she said, yes. And I could said, did you call it Gerald fish, which led to people calling in and riding with puns of UK fish players. And I thought of you.

Drew, you would have been great. I mean, we had cod lanterns. Oh, I was just doing cod in my head. You know, there were a lot of John Walla, uh, Nate Sestuna. Oh, that was my favorite Nate Sestuna. I thought it was maybe was maybe what I liked. Uh, I liked anchovy O'Rees. These are some deep points. They were good. You probably already did some with jelly and yellow. It was their jellyfish. No, we, I couldn't, people couldn't make it work. Okay. Cause for my brain, we had to like make it work. Um, you had, uh, some of them were just playing on the gill. I'm trying to think there were a lot and they kept coming in at all the Harrison fans and every time they would come in, I would get giddy and I would start laughing at a billion. I couldn't finish the show. Sharp grubs. We had Patrick sharks. Oh, okay. Not a good one. Uh, and as they came in, I just, uh, I started acting silly. We needed, we needed one of those post game shows you could get

giddy and talk about fish. Not, yes. We're about to find land that one. Joe, go ahead, Joe. I didn't hear the post game. Did you guys get any salmon? Malone's or something? I'm not doing it this show. All right. That was for that show. But yes, that was one, uh, but there, there were, yes, that, there were, that was salmon came in on a couple of, I didn't think a salmon Malone, but again, that doesn't work. Cause it's Sam. Go ahead. Go ahead. Uh, it's not, it's not my take, but, uh, your shenan looks like sermons, uh, the better half insists every single game, uh, that Bradshaw calls. He sounds like Collins worth. And I always thought that was a little bit there, but Collins worth is a little bit more, you know, past rush sounds like he's half stoned in this past game. She said, half Collins worth half true Franklin. And I think she might be on to something. I'm not sure. Just throwing it out there. Do you think he sounds like either of those guys, I appreciate

it's called, I haven't thought that I do think he's very good, though. I really think dang Bradshaw is a really good announcer. Yeah, I think he's great at it. I think he, he makes observations that are dead on. He, to me, he's going to be, he's, if, you know, he doesn't have the biggest name, but to me, he's going to rise and be one of their top guys. He and Slay both are former vols that we've started to like because of their broadcast. Slay is going to be, Slay is going to be one of the main ESPN studio guys sooner rather than later. And it's, I agree with you. What's amazing about Kentucky basketball is as good as we've been over the years, we've never really produced a great commentator in on the national scene. We've never really, even on the SEC network, they've given guys chances and it just, they just have not had a guy connect. Yeah, they gave Tony Duc a chance and one Walker chance. I mean, Matt's been doing that one show now.

Matt's actually no, Matt's parents pretty good. I didn't think Matt's parents would be great, but I think he's gotten good. I think he's good with, um, with, uh, Bruce Pearl and, but we don't ever seen because he's on the big 12 games, right? I like Larry Conley back in the day. Larry Conley, yeah, that's a long time ago, but yes, he was, he, he was very good. I've had other people say that Drew sounds like Dame Bradshaw. Really? Yeah. I just, I've heard that Rex was pretty good. Yeah. But Rex, you know, talk about not sticking to sports. I mean, that's a guy who was not going to stick to sports. But I thought Rex on our pregame show was amazing. He was good. When he was around the team, those couple years, yeah, he just got into the political too much and they couldn't, yeah, they just couldn't give him around.

All right, somebody sent me a screenshot of the Southland minister of the things people had to tune out their life for these. All right. They've got to list it. Yeah. So see if any of these apply to us. Cultural commentators. Probably yes. No. No, not us. We talk about the culture.

We're done in this setting. Not for lint. So you're saying we are a cultural commentator, but not enough of one, two. They met other ones. Okay. All right. Political commentators. Not really on this show. No. I mean, I'll, I, I think they mean 94 five from seven. Yeah. That's 94 five. Mixmas. All right. News organization. I mean, we kind of qualify in all these, but not really. Well, that's why you can't. This one. This one. I think this one. This one's going to get us. Oh, say it. Yeah. Podcasts that aren't about Jesus. Well, that's us. We don't talk. We can talk Jesus though. Right now. If you want to, you do a Jesus segment. Pro. Sponsored by draft Kings. Pro Jesus. Pro Jesus. I got no problem. You should get a contract extension. Yeah. Big fan actually. Five five. Influencers, YouTube personalities and internet pastors without churches. Well, we're not an internet pastor without a church. We don't even claim to be.

So I could see how you could see that and say, like three of those five, we're kind of born out like one, you know, we're a little bit of everything, a little bit of this, a little bit of that. So I don't think you can just put us into one category. We're definitely. We're four God though. But we're not definitely a podcast. It's not about Jesus. That's true. I think that might be the one that gets us. Yeah. All right. I understand. I'm not. I appreciate the sentiment. He should have gotten the parentheses except KSR. True. Talk to him after he should. He should have done March Madness. All right. Eight, five, nine. What about the Jaden Quentin's dad comment? You know, his dad has been kind of vocal more than once, but it's just pleasure without things have gone with his son and this was like right as the game was starting. Yeah. Yeah, it was. I had heard a rumor that he had moved out of Lexington like a month ago and so I just think that it's well, of course, now I can't find the comment, but it leads me to believe that he is.

The comment was essentially what, what all did it say for people didn't see it? It was something like y'all pushing narrative, y'all pushing y'all and he was talking to some fan. Yeah. He was basically like, Jaden came back, even when the coaches didn't want him to come back and yes, he had swelling and then like I didn't go out. He doesn't hang out. All he does is rehab and ice. That's what he said. Yeah. But he was clearly not happy and that's not been the first time. Right. You know, you know, my view, parents shouldn't be chipping. I mean, doesn't do you any good? Doesn't help your son. Doesn't help your kid. Doesn't help you. Doesn't help the fan. It never helps. And the shirt back at a fan like that was I think it was a bad look and it was like bright for the game. As far as like, Quayton's, I mean, he's not going to play here again, right? I mean, I haven't expected him in well over a month on the Tweet A, just an incredibly long tweet. So I saw it and said, well, you know, I'm our readers and positive thing I'm doing to

read this. But I get his dad, that's the nature to defend your son, especially he's getting a lot of it online. That just as you all said with parents and putting that out there, it just you're just asking for it. It never makes it. It's got like 350,000 views, a lot of engagement. I mean, you know, it's not the best. It's hard to say a parent don't defend your kid, but it never works out in this setting. Yeah. Doug, go ahead. Doug. Yes, man. I have an observation. Then a question for the group. For myself, one reason I don't usually think about calling in after a big win like Saturday as because I prefer to listen to what you guys had to say. I've heard that. I appreciate it. Thank you. And the question for the group, you mentioned while I go to the good commentators. Yes. Who is your least favorite commentator? I have one and it's not even close to the rest. Who's that?

Rafferty. How really? I don't like rafferty. Why is that? Well, he does that growling thing. He does all the time. And he gets choked on his flame and keeps trying to talk and you can't make out a word he's saying. I've never noticed that. All right. Well, I appreciate the call, Doug. You know, I actually think college basketball is appreciated. It's kind of blessed with good commentators, like I'm trying to think of who does Kentucky games for the most part. Our three ones, we get Billis and Jimmy Dykes the most. Jimmy Dykes probably the most of color comment commentators. And then probably Billis second and then we get a lot of Dave Bradshaw. We've had a few games where we had like Damien fish back. I thought he was the guy we had the guy that I don't want to be mean. The guys we had for the South Carolina, I was going to say the same thing that guy kept going. That's what they need to do. He said that 20 times.

Yeah. Is that Perry Clark? Perry Clark. Yeah. Probably could move Perry Clark to a different conference. Former South Carolina assistant. I know. He was he was a lot with Kevin with a Fitzgerald. Yeah. The other guy's fine. But Perry Clark was a lot. Fran for Shillin does a lot of S.E.C. game. We didn't do our games. It was Lotny Terry. Wasn't it? It wasn't. It wasn't Perry. Whoever did the South Carolina. It was Lotny Terry. He's saying it was Perry. Yeah. I was Perry for South Carolina. Either way, that guy's not the best. For Shillin's okay. I like Fran fine. I don't have guys that really annoy me like back in the day. Do you? No. Not really. I mean, I was never a big Bill Walton fan. But then it kind of grows on the little bit. He's probably not going to do anymore. Yeah. But I didn't like him doing games. But then he did it. The more it kind of grew on me a little bit. I mean, play my play. I'm going Tom Hart. Yeah. We go. We don't get a lot of iron eagle games, but I love iron eagle. You look alike Dave Fleming, but we never have him.

No. So I don't really know. We used to always have Sean Farnham, but we don't have him anymore. They put him out on the West Coast all the time. We get Carl Ravich all the time with Jimmy Dykes. You really like you like Carl Ravich. I think he's great. But yeah, I don't think there's anybody bad right now. Do you? Not really. To be honest, I'm at the game for home games and I sync with Tom and Jack almost all the time. I think we're actually kind of blessed in the college basketball. I think everybody's pretty good. Let's go to Mark Anthony. Go ahead, Mark. Good morning, Matthew, Ryan Drew and Shannon. Hey, fellas, that three-point shot, Colin was fouled. I don't see it any other way. I mean, hey, you take a three-point shot, end up on your backside on the floor. How are you now, fellas? None the less. And the foul against BG, he liked to took his head off. It was hard to see from the first few angles they showed. But when they showed it from behind him, he liked to hit off. And it was real funny, I thought, when Doug Shals walked up there to make the announcement

to the crowd. Oh, yeah. That was great. I wasn't bad. And everybody booed and he was like, give me a second. Hold on. Hold on. And. And. And he'd just give me a minute. I appreciate the call. That was definitely because it was Doug Shals. Yeah. Everyone was booing. And he was like, just hang on. There's another paragraph to my answer. I love that. That was really fun. Crowd wouldn't wait. Like I said, that was coming right off the Chandler thing, too. So the crowd was already hot, even up by double digits. So Doug got it pretty good in that moment. Yeah, he did. They were expecting Shals. This is probably reversed the call. I'm not calling it a flag of fossils. So as he said, everybody jumped on him. But to the question, I think my perfect thing would be like, I need goal. Bill Raftry and Tom Hart as like the host coming in and out. That'd be good. That's what I would love. We'll take a break.
