Speaker 1

Welcome everyone to another edition of the KASR Pre Show. Today is Thursday May twenty first, No, it's Wednesday, Wednesday May twenty. First, you can give us a call and the Clarks Pumpshop phone line. It's eight five nine two eight oh two two eight seven Texas at five o two two six five sixty six five six and it is always the case. Our pre show is brought to you by Italics Fine Italian Dining in Lexington, Kentucky. Billy Rutledge along with Shannon the Dude. We're seeing each other

for the nine hundredth time this morning. Congrats Shannon, we made it to nine hundred episodes. Are you sick and tired of seeing me every morning?

Speaker 2

Yet?

Speaker 3

Almost? We're about there.

Speaker 1

Yeah, Mike and Mike twenty after twenty years they couldn't talk to each other.

Speaker 3

We're we're about there too. No, I'm not not at that point. Yeah.

Speaker 4

I don't understand like how you could do a show though if you just hate it the other person. Like I can understand maybe having like you know, maybe not being the best of friends because you know, let's be honest, do you are you best of friends with everybody that you work with?

Speaker 3

No?

Speaker 4

No, but somebody that you have to you know, talk to for an hour at least every day.

Speaker 3

You at least have to be cordial.

Speaker 4

Right, And you hear about Mike and Mike and they just didn't like each other, which fooled me.

Speaker 3

I guess they were great actors.

Speaker 1

Well after a while, right, I mean, I think they had a fine relationship for a while, but I mean after twenty years, you know, the light would go off and they wouldn't say a word to each other.

Speaker 4

It's like being in a band, you know, like these Yeah, but I've always said, like bands, I don't get it. You're you've got it made, like what you don't like the percentage of bands that actually make it to where they're playing sold out shows every night and then they just break up all creative differences.

Speaker 3

Forget about your creative differences.

Speaker 4

Like just get up there and play the songs, play the hits, and you know, you got to do it for an hour, hour and a half and then walk off and then you're done. You don't have to talk to them, you just you just go up on stage and play your instrument. It's different from doing a radio show. They don't even have to speak to each other.

Speaker 1

Right, Well, I guess both you have strong personalities, right, and egos can take over and after a while maybe you you harbor some resentment. Not yet, Shannon, I think we're still in the right the same page, and we talked to each other during the breaks. So a big thank you to everybody that's listened over the years, and we'd love to hear from you this morning. You know, a couple of weeks ago, I took a shot at Disney adults, unknowingly that Ryan Lemon may have been one of them.

Speaker 3

Shannon.

Speaker 1

We learned yesterday he spent his honeymoon back in nineteen ninety one in Orlando, and he said he's been to Disney World dozens of times. So maybe I should apologize to the people just trying to find a little happiness at the Magical Kingdom.

Speaker 3

I'm not going to shame anybody.

Speaker 4

If that's your thing, go for it, right, I mean, if if you, I mean, I don't think I would want to spend a honeymoon at Disney, But if that's your thing, then I'm not going to shame Ryan for it.

Speaker 3

Yeah.

Speaker 1

Well I was shaming people for it, and so I did feel a little bad when Ryan said that yesterday, but I just know you want to get on the teacups, babe. I mean, we're celebrating our wedding out for et Oh. Small world is actually what we've got playing two or three times today. But I mean, who knew Ryan was, you know, going to places like Orlando and Gatlinburg. It just seems like the more tourists to track it is, the more that Ryan might go to.

Speaker 4

Well, don't worry, don't feel bad about it, because I remember one time on the air, I said, anybody who owns a time share is an absolute idiot. And Ryan didn't say anything for like twenty minutes, and then we find out later he's got a time share, Like a why in the world did anybody have a time share? Either rent it or own it, don't time share it. It's the most ridiculous thing.

Speaker 3

I've asked. The biggest scam ever in the history of the world is a time share?

Speaker 1

Yeah, I've heard the same thing. I he is the only person I know that owns a time share, So you know that that's our lovable Ryan Lemon, and we'd have it no other way. But I was shocked, and I mean shocked, Shannon to hear that Ryan was driving on Monday to the Tornado devastation sites while Matt was not. Shannon, have you ever been in the car with Matt while he was not driving, because that would definitely be a first if I.

Speaker 4

Was was that set on the show yesterday because I wasn't listening, I must have been taking a phone call when that happened.

Speaker 1

So Ryan let Ryan drive, Ryan drove, Matt drove me on Monday. I've only seen that happen like one time ever. That was on a road trip. But yeah, that doesn't happen very often.

Speaker 4

Matt loves to drive, not surprisingly, he likes to be in control.

Speaker 3

It's fun with me.

Speaker 4

I hate driving. I hate driving if you do. If I had somebody to drive me around all the time, that would be great. Like I'm the opposite, Like I do not want to drop. I would rather just sit there and ride and not have to pay attention to anything.

Speaker 1

Oh, I think it's somewhat relaxing, maybe clears your head a little bit. You can listen to a podcast or some music. I mean, I think you're a little bit of a psychopath if you just listen to the engine.

Speaker 3

But there's nothing wrong with going no music for a little while.

Speaker 1

Yeah, but you're saying you don't like driving, Shannon, So when you have to drive three hours to Pineville on Friday and then and drive three hours back, you're not gonna be having much fun.

Speaker 3

Don't enjoy it. But you know it's part of the job.

Speaker 4

So I will enjoy it once I get to Pineville Mountain Laurel Fest.

Speaker 3

Right, that's right. So what happens at Mount Laurel Fest.

Speaker 4

I guess we're gonna find out, right, Well, I guess you guys will I guess you guys. Well, I've got a to do the show and then jump in the car and drive tolecs Into for another remote for WKQQ, my afternoon rock show.

Speaker 3

So I'll still able to hang around.

Speaker 1

Look at that that guy making money double remotes on Friday for Shannon.

Speaker 3

You know when you're in demand, you're in demand. What are you gonna do?

Speaker 1

Well, you said you'd hire a driver. Would you ever buy a Tesla or a car that drives itself?

Speaker 3

I'm not there yet.

Speaker 4

Like in the future, if it can prove to me that it's not gonna go rogue and drive me into a lake, then yeah, I could possibly see myself wanting to do that, but as of right now, no, I was. I don't know if this was on TikTok or wherever social media somewhere. There was a guy who got got in one of those cars that drives itself, and he was trying to get to the airport and this car just went berserk and started driving in a parking lot in circles and would not stop.

Speaker 3

And he's in the car.

Speaker 4

Yes, and the guys like, I'm about to be late for my flight, and you guys are gonna pay for this. And he's just calling this this one eight hundred number, and a person's like, sir, can you log in please? And he's like, I don't know my log in And he's just going in a circle and he's in a teacup and it can't it can't get out, and this thing just keeps going and going and go. I don't know how it ever got resolved. I mean, for all I know, he may still be in a parking lot going in circles.

Speaker 3

Oh my gosh, that's a horror story that I'd be like king and like.

Speaker 4

Yeah, that's the reason the reason I won't jump in it right now, Like maybe in the future when we get this thing perfected, but not now.

Speaker 1

I think Mario and the guys saw a driverless car when they're in Arizona recently, and that was the first time they have seen that. But I have yet to see one. So maybe we need to go to a bigger city where it's more common. But I'm all for it, Shannon, if I can take a nap and close my eyes, I'm I'm all about it. But it seems like you've got to keep your hands on the wheel or at least be kind of present while you're there. But we'll

just see how technology advances. When Matt writes a book about Kentucky Sports Radio, I got to think that you're gonna be a big part of it, Shannon. I mean, you've been a producer for how many years on KSR?

Speaker 4

This will be fourteen years now. I guess, yeah, team, Yeah, I might. I might get like a mentioned in the what is the Ford? I might get a mentioned in that. Oh come one more than that.

Speaker 1

Yeah, I mean, there's gonna be a whole few pages on the first day and you guys screaming at Tony Vannetti saying I'm not gonna work with this guy. I mean, there's gonna be some good stories in there.

Speaker 3

Yeah, I'm kind of with him.

Speaker 4

Like, I see people write these autobiographies and you're twenty six years old.

Speaker 3

I'm going, you haven't even lived life yet.

Speaker 4

You're barely out of the womb, and you're writing your autobiography. You know, you gotta of course, you don't want to wait too late, because you never know when this ride's gonna end. But uh, you know, I think we still got God willing a few more years in us, So I think maybe we wait before that that autobiography or behind the scenes tell all of KSR book has ever written.

Speaker 3

Yeah, what was the example given?

Speaker 1

Kim Kardashian's already got one and she's already making a second, so it's like, maybe just wait until you can make one. But I mean the chapter on beaver nuggets and mimosas and barbecue, I mean that will be legendary, Shannon. So I'm looking forward to this. I don't know, well, it just uh, I think it will come to fruition.

Speaker 3

One of these days. I think Matt will write another book, So I'll be looking forward to that.

Speaker 4

Well, maybe you'll be writing it, you never know, Like who's to say he has to be the one to write it.

Speaker 3

You can. You can write about all you're behind the scene and do a tell all book. Oh my own book. That's what you're saying. I'm just saying, why does it have to be him? You can write it.

Speaker 4

Everybody can write I could write it if I want it to. I don't have time to do it.

Speaker 3

But if I did. In theory, I guess I could. Anybody could write it.

Speaker 1

Yeah, but don't you have to have something interesting in your life to write a book, Shannon, I mean.

Speaker 3

My life isn't that interesting?

Speaker 4

No yet, No you don't think Okay, I feel like mine's interesting. I got to interview Jesse James to prey from jockal later today.

Speaker 3

You were you were.

Speaker 1

Hosting booty shaking contests and you've got two.

Speaker 3

Remote on Friday.

Speaker 1

Yeah, I mean, I mean you you were proposed to hit a bar, Like I feel like that's much more of a story than I had crazy hair back in eighth grade.

Speaker 4

The thing is like, I just don't have a I have a good memory, I guess, like in certain things, but there's other things that I just don't remember. I should be keeping a journal, a diary so that I can remember some of these things, because you know, you tell stories from a long time ago, and the details get lost in the mix, or sometimes you embellish a little bit to make the story better than what it is. So I don't you know, I try to tell like the stories exactly the way they were.

Speaker 3

I try not to embellish.

Speaker 4

I listen to Annettie tell me stories about his early days already, I'll go, come on, Tony, that didn't really happen, did it?

Speaker 3

Yeah? Yeah, And the story gets crazy and crazy every single time.

Speaker 4

I've heard you tell me the story five times, and it gets crazier every time you tell me.

Speaker 3

Oh, I'm definitely one of those people.

Speaker 1

Maybe a little dramatic, maybe a little embellishment from the college days, but you know what, I think, it's it's all fair game.

Speaker 3

But no, you're right.

Speaker 1

Maybe we should start journaling, had maybe a little dream journal. Would you write down your dreams every morning?

Speaker 4

I don't ever remember them. I mean I shouldn't say ever, like ever, you don't ever remember I should I shouldn't say ever rarely. I mean, I don't know what I dreamt about last night. Do you or do we want to.

Speaker 1

Know, no, No, I guess I don't know. You and Jennifer Lawrence, well, I mean that's daydreaming, Shane, and I don't have to go to sleep for that, but I mean, like that droll off your face, it's like, yeah, you kind of forget in the first five minutes after you wake up.

Speaker 3

But I don't know. Sometimes you can have a lucid dream, Shane.

Speaker 1

And you ever have a lucid dream where you feel like you're awake and I have you can control things and stuff like that.

Speaker 3

I have, I've had that.

Speaker 4

I've also had it like where you're I don't know if it's a lucid dream, but you're half awake, half asleep, but you're paralyzed and you can't move.

Speaker 3

Yeah, is that a lucid dream? I think.

Speaker 1

I don't know if the definition of it is, but I think that could be considered one lucid dream. I always thought was like you could control what was going on, you knew you were dreaming. But I've also had that experience where I felt like I was above my body watching myself sleep.

Speaker 4

Okay, yeah, yeah, okay, now we're getting in like into the weird paranormal paranormal conversation. But I've had that too, like where you feel like you can't move and you can hear noises and you can see shadows and stuff, but you can't move.

Speaker 3

That's scary. That freaks me out.

Speaker 1

It only happened to me one time, though. It's like, is this habitual for you or is no? No, it's it's happened like a few times.

Speaker 4

But I could vividly hear like, you know, like a recliner when somebody's kicked back in a recliner and they got the leg part up and then they when they get back up, do you hear that that noise of that bottom part of the leg rest going back into the recliner. I can remember hearing that vividly and looking over and I could hear it, but I couldn't see anything like and I couldn't move. It's really weird, really really weird. So I think we're talking about the same thing.

Speaker 1

It's strange. I mean dreams here, who we get Kentucky's got a new player on the roster. Here we are talking about dream Shannon nine hundred.

Speaker 3

This is what we do. This is this is the pre show.

Speaker 1

Okay, we'll talk about Braden Hawthorne, the newest commit for Kentucky here in a little bit.

Speaker 3

Well, ask him if he's ever had lucid dreams. Do you have dreams?

Speaker 2

Then?

Speaker 3

Do you have lucid dreams? Yes, so I got a dream of playing at Kentucky and going to the NBA. That's exactly right.

Speaker 1

And it may take a little while for him to get there. Maybe that's just the natural transition. SEA mean, maybe we should should start talking about Braden Hawthorne because the four Star twenty twenty five Wing will be the newest edition of the Kentucky roster, the fourteenth roster spot if you believe otega Oway will return. And for all the people that have asked if can poop Mark Pope and recruit Mark Pope Shannon, I think you have to

be impressed with what he's done. I mean, how if you can convince a top thirty player to be your fourteenth man on the roster, I think that shows you that Pope is in control.

Speaker 4

Well, it tells me a commitment longer than one year. You're not coming here if you're in the top thirty top thirty five ranked players as the fourteenth guy and staying for one year, Right, I think that you're you've shown a commitment to Okay, I'm going to be fourteenth now, but I'm going to work myself up to being a guy who can get a meaningful minutes in the next

year or two. So yeah, that's pretty impressive though, to be able to get somebody that highly ranked and convince them and sell the product of Kentucky basketball to where they're okay, being the fourteenth guy?

Speaker 3

Is red shirting still a thing?

Speaker 1

Like you know, of course, a guy like Colin Chandler can play some minutes and develop and be a much better player the next year. But to convince a freshman to come in as the fourteenth member of the team, I mean, you are basically red shirting this guy unless you are going to get into some injury issues. So in this college landscape, I think it's extremely impressive to get a it's such a talented guy to buy in

like that. But on the flip side of that, how do you not see what's going on in Kentucky and want.

Speaker 3

To be a part of it?

Speaker 2

Right?

Speaker 3

Yeah? I think so.

Speaker 4

I mean we were trying to figure out yesterday who would be our starting five, and you look at the transfers that you get you know, got a guy out from Alabama, guy from Florida, got from Tulane that's transferred in. You know, some really talented freshmen that are coming into So I think that Pope has done a great job.

Speaker 3

And we knew that he was.

Speaker 4

I mean, you know, we're saying, look at what he did in the first year quickly throwing that roster together. You have a team that it's you know, look like they could have you know, if they could have gotten by Tennessee, could have made a run to the final four. So you know, now you give him a fresh start after the year, give him a full recruiting season, and he's put together one hell of a roster so far.

Speaker 1

Braden Hawthorne gave this quote to Travis Brandham yesterday. If I come in and do what I got to do, then I will have an opportunity to play. If not, I'm going to put my head down and keep working and get ready for the next year and do what I can to support my team. And that's the mindset you have to have. This is a guy that was originally a guard and then had a growth spurt. So Shannon, while he's considered a wing, he's somebody that can handle

the ball pretty well. And if he can gain some strength. He's six' eight point eighty, five he can put on a little. Muscle shan maybe The Trent noah gain eighteen, pounds then maybe he is somebody that can be a huge contributor next.

Speaker 4

YEAR i like that mentality from that quote because that's rare these, days BECAUSE i feel like most players now have the mentality Of, Okay i'm not going to play, well Then i'm just going to go transfer somewhere. Else he's, like all, Right i'm gonna put my head, down keep working and get ready for the next season to make myself a valuable part of this.

Speaker 1

Team AND i, mean you look at the roster now and this could be one of the most loaded deep rosters in the last ten fifteen years For.

Speaker 3

Kentucky.

Speaker 1

SHIT i Mean Jalen, Low Jasper, Johnson Colin, Chandler Denzel, aberdeen o Tega, Oway Trent, noah Cam, Williams Braiden, Hawthorne Bo, Diabat, Jayden quainton's Andre, Yelovich Brandon, Garrison malachim Moreno Reese.

Speaker 4

Potter would you say deepest roster since the platoon? Years you know because Cald you, know, YES i THINK i would cal had ten LIKE nba caliber players, There.

Speaker 3

NO i think.

Speaker 1

SO i mean Besides Reese potter And Braden. HAWTHORNE i expect all those guys to maybe even be in the mix at some, point and Even Malachi, moreno as you're, uh your member of the guy that might surprise us the, most.

Speaker 3

He's he's My Bryce hopkins this. Year, moreno you KNOW i gave You Bryce.

Speaker 4

Hopkins he wasn't a guy that was, starting but a guy that came out and had some big moments For. Kentucky So marino was my guy this. Year so exciting news About Brandon. Hawthorne we'd like to hear from. You what do you think About kentucky's roster eight five nine two eighth two two eight.

Speaker 3

Week, NO i don't Think i'll be watching.

Speaker 1

That, okay all, right well that'll that'll be something to catch up on. Later we were talking a little bit about THE. Nba our excitement For Nick pacers Tonight Thunder timberwolves was last. Night shaquille O'Neill told an interesting story on a podcast just. Recently we had THE Nba draft lottery just recently and many thought maybe the process is. Rigged you've heard about the frozen envelope With David stern

and things in the. Past, Well shaq was coming out of college in nineteen ninety two and had a conversation With David stern before THE Nba draft, lottery And David stern Asked shack a very interesting. Question he, asks do you want to play where it's hot or where it's? Cold And shaq said? Hot and then just days, later The Orlando magic won the number one pick in the NEXT nba. Draft, shannon does this add fuel to the fire that this process has been rigged for all these?

Speaker 3

Years?

Speaker 4

Possibly, SO i mean it sounds kind of, suspicious does it?

Speaker 1

Not See shack could be just playing, Fun but why would he say that if he wasn't nn in the fire a little?

Speaker 3

Bit was he the number one pick that?

Speaker 2

Year?

Speaker 3

Yeah city was?

Speaker 1

Ok, Yeah Orlando magic got the number one. Pick and THEN i Believe shaq went one after the hot or cold.

Speaker 4

BECAUSE i thought there was like a thing like where there was two other cities Like charlotte and one other one like up, north Maybe, minnesota that was in, contention and somehow he ended up going To orlando and not those two. CITIES i, thought MAYBE i got it. WRONG i thought he was the third, pick AND i thought those other two teams pick. FIRST i could be completely wrong about.

Speaker 1

That maybe that's the thing because it was nineteen ninety. TWO i wasn't even alive, Yet so if somebody knows more about, it tell. Us but for the fact that he does go to a hot weather place After David stern says something like that is.

Speaker 3

Interesting it is BECAUSE i.

Speaker 4

Don't, yeah to, me it sounds like there's some shenanigans going on.

Speaker 1

Here and, well you rightly pointed out in the last, one they don't even show you the lottery. Balls, yeah, RIGHT i show us the process of picking the. Ball at least when you did the, envelopes you saw them actually getting the envelope out of the. Cylinder but you just come up there and say who won the? PICK i, mean, look would it benefit THE nba for their stars to go where they want?

Speaker 2

Them?

Speaker 3

Yes, Right and it's all about making. Money. YEP i don't.

Speaker 4

Know and you're, Right orlando did pick him. First but you have A charlotte In minnesota that had the second and third. Pick SO i think that maybe the controversy was That orlando got the first.

Speaker 1

Pick, YEAH a lot of times the team that gets the first pick doesn't have the most.

Speaker 3

Amount of Losses and is that? Fair but that's to prevent.

Speaker 1

Tanking But shack's always going to try to always going to try to create a little, drama, Right and he did so even more when he talked about that on a. Podcast another guy that's creating a lot of drama is

Ze Kai. Ziegler, shan what is With Tennessee athletics over the last week or so because they just created a state law saying they're not going to follow any of THE ncaa, Rules and now Ze Kai, ziegler who has played four years of college basketball since twenty twenty, one is now suing THE ncaa for another year of.

Speaker 3

ELIGIBILITY i, mean do they just think they could do whatever they want in the state Of tennessee.

Speaker 4

Apparently SO i don't know why you would want to fight this and risk being kicked out of THE. Sec like if You're tennessee AND i Know, VANDERBILT i, mean they they definitely want to be in THE. Sec it Benefits vandy a lot more to be in THE sec than THE sec to Have vanderbilt in the.

Speaker 3

League so If I'm, Vandy i'm.

Speaker 4

Look university Of, tennessee we don't want any part of, This like you speak for, yourself but you, know the other teams in the state Of tennessee are kind of being dragged into. This and we haven't heard anything from a spokesperson From vanderbilt Or memphis, right any of these other. Schools it seems like to be The university Of tennessee

is the one sort of leading the. Charge but how do we know that these other schools want to be a part of this where there's no, rules you know from THE, ncaa.

Speaker 1

Right AND i MEAN i as much as anybody has crapped on THE ncaa over the years for their lack of, leadership their lack of vision for the, future and their failure to. Act but THE ncaaa is ultimately made up of school. Presidents so the schools that are complaining about THE ncaa are THE ncaa to a. Degree but for The state Of tennessee to say just we're not gonna

follow the, rules they're just doing it by. Themselves, SHANNON i could see THE sec breaking away or maybe The big, ten but Just memphis And vandy And, tennessee you're gonna make a fool out of. Yourselves and you guys were saying, like good luck playing in the conference TO sa Right Sam, Houston State Western. KENTUCKY i, mean that's the kind of level you'll drop to if if the power for schools

are gonna put these rules into. Place but this on you, know And Zekai's egeler on top of all of, this it JUST i, mean they they really don't think they're rules a.

Speaker 4

Platf it doesn't seem Like tennessee's interested in backing down, Either so somebody something's got to give on this situation at one point or.

Speaker 3

Another it be a lot smarter For tennessee just to go all, right just.

Speaker 4

Kidding you, know kids left a, lot, Okay but also you, know they like they're calling their. Bluff, Okay, tennessee you say that you want to go in this by. Yourself you, know you got the other power conferences now sort of banding. Together so that doesn't leave the door open For tennessee to go to a big ten or AN. Acc so now you're kind of stuck out.

Speaker 3

There on your. Own you, know you're you're on an. Island, yeah, yeah maybe that's the way they want. It they want to be the Next Notre.

Speaker 1

Dame But zekai's either four, years one hundred and thirty eight college games and still looking to play. MORE i, MEAN i get maybe though eventually there'll be a five year eligibility, Window.

Speaker 4

But come, on, sikuy what year would he be on your? Five this would, yeah he'd be on year five if we've got a seven year quarterback in.

Speaker 3

Football so we can't really say too, much.

Speaker 1

But they get like hurt and like THERE covid years and like there're circumstances THAT i guess allow twenty eight year olds to sometimes still. COMPETE i don't. Know it's so, bizarre isn't? It like these they've got to change the whole landscape of.

Speaker 4

This BUT i think that's WHAT i think That's tennessee's. Argument, well, No tennessee's just Like. Tennessee let's get rid of The tennessee's, like let's get rid of THE nc DOUBLE a.

Speaker 1

Like a toddler throwing a Tantrum. Tennessee and now they, realize, hey, uh they had it pretty good in THE. Sec we'll see if they end up not running away from HOME a five, nine two eight. Seven we'll take a break and be right.

Speaker 3

Back you're on the. CASE i appreciate welcome.

Speaker 1

Back feel bad for the podcast, Listener, shannon the dude always kills it with the. Music thank, you. Buddy without chainsaws or baby making, music we've got on.

Speaker 1

Seven you, know our thoughts and prayers are still with the communities impacted by the tornado over the last. Week we're still thinking Of somerset And. London but we got some more news. Yesterday yesterday more weather came. Through ALL i could think about, was you, know people with their roofs blown off and people needing.

Speaker 3

Tarps it's.

Speaker 1

Devastating but we also got the news that it was AN ef four tornado with winds up to one hundred and seventy miles an. Hour it was on the ground for fifty six. Miles, shannon there's only been Six category four or five tornadoes in the last fifty years In kentucky and that was one of.

Speaker 4

Them, yeah this, Week, yeah, definitely thoughts prayers still with all of the people who were affected by. THAT i saw an amazing picture of this tornado that went through a.

Speaker 3

Forest you could see the path THIN i saw the same.

Speaker 4

Photo, yeah it's an incredible. Picture so, yeah as bad as it, WAS i THINK i heard the guy say this the other, day it could have been even.

Speaker 3

Worse, so you, know just to put it all into.

Speaker 4

PERSPECTIVE i know that you know a lot of people lost their homes and lives were, lost but think that it could have even been worse is kind of a scary thing to imagine fifty six.

Speaker 1

Miles it is, unbelievable and so giving our best to everybody impacted by, that and donate if you.

Speaker 3

Speaker 1

YESTERDAY i let a social media ad influence a purchase of.

Hat oh and In western's official store is so bad that IF i find any knockoffs or any random website that has even a decent looking, Hat i'll splurge on. It.

Speaker 3

Shannon, yeah so that's the, thing, though you got to find.
