I'll read to you and you guys tell me if you want to learn more or not. By the way, yesterday was listening to the Terry Miner Show and Ian was saying that Fat Tony is guaranteed to come back and that Dight Dwight would never come back. And I was gonna send a shirtless picture to Ian and Terry. Then I thought, yeah,

what could go wrong there? Right? Dwight would never come back. Oh, Ian was in love with you, dude. No, fat Tony is guaranteed to come back, and Fat Dwight is dead forever. And you're weak is what he's saying. That's fake news. You will given at some point. I've got Spudnik fired up and I'm ready. Here we go headline. Kevin Costner and ex wife Christine officially finalized their divorce after contentious split. Band named split not bad at all. We haven't heard about Coster's divorced in a

while. And how as we previously told you, Hollywood, a lister, Kevin Costner has moved on from his contentious relationship with Christine Baumgartner, but now the actor can officially move forward now that it has been finalized. The Yellowstone Star and now ex wife were granted a full divorce last Friday in Santa Barbara, California. Remember over the summer, it was like every week something was leaking out, and I was like, what is going on with this marriage?

Can I just say one thing? Yeah? Yeah, Bomb Gardner, damn near Kilder. So does it say, are you about to say he's back on Yellowstone? I don't know. The agreement includes joint custody of their three children. It lets them skip a previously mandated co parenting course. Doesn't have any financial terms. Though, let's get back. Let's get back because

his wife. The reason he said he was leaving Yellowstone is because his wife says he wouldn't spend enough time with her, and then he leaves Yellowstone and then the divorce happens. But I think he burned a bridge with Taylor Waite Sheridan, the guy that writes all these damn things. When I think that bridge is burning, he's toast. Do you mean there was a wife that gave mixed signals. No, no, do I need a balloony sandwich or not? Headline mom fluencer Ruby Frank gets up to sixty years. I saw

this for child abuse. Oh yeah, yeah, I think I know what this is, and it is what I think it is. I saw a pictures and it is disgusting. I got it a dand with this, let's hear it. Okay. As we previously told you, former family YouTuber Ruby Frank pleaded guilty to four counts of child abuse late last year. The decision a big one. Frank receiving four separate prison sentences, each running between one and fifteen years, to be served concurrently, actually one after the other.

This means she could serve anywhere from four to sixty years. Thanks to a Utah law, she probably won't get more than thirty. It does not say what the abuse was. This is the one that had she videoed her child, which looks like the child was around seven, and she was performing Brazilian waxes on women. Oh and I gotta google it now, but I'm pretty sure that's who that is. Maybe it's not, but I saw the video and I thought, and again, that's what Twitter is. Now, there's

no there's no bumpers and backstops to Twitter, anything could be uploaded. So you saw video and this child is doing Brazilian waxes. It's disgusting. What the heck? I do want to say that? Also in the article I read on that story, someone took because she's a mom influencer. On that's a mom influencer. Dude, get with us. I'm sorry.

Former Playboy model claims Justin Timberlake cheated on Cameron Diaz with ear Let's wait, yeah, let's hear it. Did Justin Timberlake run around on Cameron Diaz back in the day. Playboy model Zoey Gregory claims that he did, and that she was the one he ran around

with. Gregory told The Daily Mail that Timberlake initially refused her advances when they met at a party twenty years ago due to his relationship with Cameron. However, Gregory claimed that after she teased Timberlake that Diaz was not with him. Now, the pair allegedly hooked up in Hugh Hefner's indoor pool. She did clarify that I didn't have sex with them, but we had a fondle and we made out. That's a weird time to get cheese in that thing and

bread. It's just so, it's it's sad we had a fondle. It's sad. Yeah, John from the news room seem John says that was Scottie Pippen's wife. Oh okay, yeah, it's so that they have to go. Yeah, like twenty years ago, we like we hooked up. What's the story? Well, we were really, John, can he filed me up? Wait a minute, and why are you telling the story? You know? Because marriage?

Yeah, there's else. They didn't have my half calf, So I'm going to destroy a life today. Joe, but I'm not doing the Today Show a look. TMZ just picked me up one more headline. Kim Kardashian drag dragged for selling dirty bikini bag for seventy thousand dollars. Okay, here, normally we don't do it.

We're gonna make an exception for people buying stupid. It's tough from stars. Yes, how about band name dirty Bikini Bags. Yeah, yeah, that's exactly that. Write it in, put it in the dirty bikini bags. It's a used Burkein bag owned by a Kardashian. Is it worth seventy grand? Kim Kardashian is being dragged. It's not a word that I use in this context. But that's why I'm fifty seven over her dirty Hermes purse being

offered for the low low price of seventy grand. On her resale site, she posted the rare gray matte alligator Burkein bag on Kardashian closet, listed in good condition. A description of the handbag on the website read that there was some discoloration on the handles and underside bottom corners and minor scratching on metal.

I don't blame the Kardashians. Seventy thousand. I don't blame the Kardashians for this, because this what this smells like is them sitting around stoned or drunk, yeah, whatever they do on three bottles of wine, sitting around and going, I bet I can get seventy grand for that dirty bag. Like somebody goes, dude, what are you going to clean that bag? It's nasty, Get it off the couch. And then Kim Kardashian goes, I bet I can get seventy grand for that bag, and everybody goes, shut

up, Well to do it then, and so she does it. That's what it has. And then some sad sap out there is like I could have Kim Rhian's dirty beach bag. Totally tell me, please say seventy grand. I just went to Kardashian's closet. Closet spelled with a cake. Yeah, you're right. People idiots will buy anything from celebrities. I remember when Grinneth Paltrow had a candles yeah, right, and all these idiots flocked out

to get him, and I bet it didn't even smell like it. Well, what happens if I knocked the candle over and the wax got on the carpet. It's a great question, and I'd like to take that question right now and highly recommend my friends at zero resk Carpet and Eric. They can get the wax off. They can get wax off. That's right, baby, Listen. Zero Res is the only place that uses a patent at z R Water to get your postery, to get your carpets immaculately clean. You

won't believe the job that zero Res does. Other places that use harsh detergents chemicals and it'll leave residue on your carpets that can collect dirt and make your carpets actually look worse. That's why zero zero res is the best right now. If you mentioned Dwight Witten or whas when you're booking your appointment, well you're gonna get three rooms cleaned for one hundred and nineteen dollars and they're gonna throw in a staircase. That's what I'm talking about. Schedule online easily at

zero res Louisville dot com. What a treat today is, Tony. You can actually sit outside in February at Lata Pasta just outside of the coffee shop if you just want a cup of Joe or a latte or a nice coffee. They can do that, but I recommend going in and also having lunch and bringing it outside. Get a panini, gonna say play okay, yeah, I get a pannini if you want something hot, or a deli sandwich. I love the chicken salad with lettuce and tomato on some Milwaukee cracked rie.

Don't be surprised if you see me sitting there. He's talking about the cafe. It's been fantastic, and you're right, sixty five degrees almost seventy today. It's fooling us, like the weather's fooling us. But we get it today. Lots of pasta, lots of pasta. Louisl dot Com thirty seven to seventeen, Lexington Road, in the Heart of Saint Matthews. Back after this and finish your pahini. There you the hecksa Pahini one of my favorite segments all week. We have the Legend on Nick Coffee three pm to

six pm on Sports Talk seven to ninety. But I did inform our boss Nick that I will be filing. Dave is gonna be sort of a witness on the whole thing because I got dragged into it. I was collateral damage hostile work environment. We were forced to a watch a UFL basketball game and be talk about it for an hour after said game, and I filed a HR violation with our boss Gus because somebody was out of town. Yeah yeah here. And you guys, you know, be upset about having to do

it once. I've been doing it for two years, so I had a lot of sympathy for mind Nick Coffee again They've got man, I hate to do this, but I'm gonna do it. Do it. Some of my favorite matchups of all time was that run of about ten games in a row between Louisville and Notre Dame when Mike Braden was at Notre Dame and he had the half beard and he looked like he was in a tuxedo without a rish.

He was one of the rat pack or something. And Rick Patino's on the other side, and every game went to overtime, whether it was Freedom Hall or at their place at Notre Dame. I don't know what they were in it's called, but either place it went to and it went to overtime like ten games in a row, and it was incredible, no doubt about

it. And Notre Dame. You know, they they had. Their best team was actually in twenty fifteen, the team that that, honestly I think was right there with a chance to beat that Kentucky team was undefeated at that time, and they had some other good teams mixed in. But even when

they weren't like great, they always played Louisville. Well, I don't have the numbers, and I'm gonna need to look it up today because it was wild the amount of times they played, where like ninety percent of the games they played in like a six to seven year stretch went to overtime, were multiple overtimes, and always competitive. They had a bunch of you know, a bunch of guys, just a bunch of white dudes who you know, played like white dudes, right, like Luke herronng God, you remember that

and Karen Go Karen. And they had guys that like you look at the box, you look at the roster, Rightu're at the game looking at the roster, you know, the the media notes and all that, and you're like, wait a second, who's this guy? And you look down like Dane Flucker And I'm like, you're right, that guy looks like a Dane Fluger like they had. They had a type cast man and those guys at Toms could really ball. This year's team much different with Michael Shrewsbury, which

a little bit of a local connection. He's at from Jeffersonville, so kind of a homecoming for him. But yeah, they're they're really bad. This is the second time Louisville has been a favorite in an ACC game in the Kenny Payanne era, So we'll see if they can pull it off tonight. Overall, how bad is college basketball right now? You've got so many players moving, not a lot of cohesive teams. They're getting better as they go, I suppose, but when I watch other games, I think this just

isn't very good. Am I off? No, I'm with you. I think you're I don't. We may never see it, but I think with this new world of the portal, it's I don't think anybody has found the secret sauce just yet. If you know what I mean. As far as how you you know the perfect components needed to put a good team together.

I think you need some guys to stick around and give you continuity. You know, you add some veterans in the portal that can come in and fill a specific role, and then you've got some young guys that you know at

times you know are making place for you. So I'm with you. The product's not great, but it also makes me very jealous because this is the kind of year where you look across the tree, it really the the field, and if you're a team that's, you know, in top three seed, I feel like you feel you feel pretty damn good about where you are.

But if you're like a five to eight, you look at everybody else and you can you can head into March knowing like scenes may not matter because I think you know you're going to see in the second round, you know, a six vers of three. You may just say, hey, I've watched enough basketball this year. This six seed's just better. So it's wide open, I think outside of Ukon. But then again, they got blown out last night, so yeah, it's kind of been a weird year.

But it also has me missing the thrill that comes with this time of year when you've got a team that you know is going to go dancing and you're just trying to think, Okay, what region do we want? You know, which which mid major are we trying to avoid? All the fun stuff that makes March Madness great. I'm missing it like crazy. But you know this isn't new. I've now become used to dealing with this because it's been

a long time since louisill was relevant in March. Yep, Okay, I don't know who filled in for you on Monday, but remind I was long, Oh well, goes off? Oh no, I'm sorry for my day. Was Colin Cowhert had to fill in and he had a guest on which I've heard, haven't heard, Yeah, I know, but he had Dan Docka. John. Remind me if Dan Dockage is in good graces for everybody or not. I can't remember if he attacks someone and got canceled or something.

But he was saying, He's like, look, I've watched Yale and Harvard play, and I'm telling you I think that Yale and Harvard are better besides Kansas yukon a couple of teams at the top, he said, I think, he goes, I think Yale in Harvard has a good team as any and that they need to that the committee needs to rethink some of their qualifications to get into the tournament, and he predicted it would be the first year that it would be four. The final four will be four non Power

sixty five teams. To me, that sounds absolutely ridiculous. It is a year where I think you're going to continue to see upsets that really kind of no longer feel like big upsets just because I mean they will to us we watch the sport closer than others. I think those who get into the bracket, it'll be, you know, a big shock. But no, I

don't don't. I don't know anything of it. I mean, I know the IVY League has actually had a good run where they get a team in and they'll end up making me. Last year, I think it was Princeton maybe to the Sweet sixteen knockoff Arizona. So maybe maybe he's onto something there. But game Doctach I literally forgot all about Dan Doctich. He is somebody that I think if you were to ask him and he was honest with you, I think he would tell you his brand that he puts out there.

He wants to be a jerk. He kind of wants people to not really like it. And I get it, and he's pretty good at it. But when it comes to like an end game analyst I don't know if ESPN had anybody better as far as just talking basketball. At times, he'd you know, get off script a little bit and just kind of do his thing. But I kind of miss him as an analyst. I know he's not

very popular around here, but he was really really good at that. I don't think he got canceled, but he chose to move on from ESPN, or maybe they chose to move on from him, and now he works for out Kits, so he's basically working for Klay Travis. To me, Nick Coffee, there were a couple of things that needed to happen to guarantee a year three for Kenny Payne. One would have been shaking up the coaching staff after last year that didn't happen, and lining up a top five class for

next year. That's not happening either. No, I mean little thing I mean and by the way, those aren't little things, those are big things. That would be statements as far as understanding, hey, we got to mix it up because what we did the first year didn't work. And yeah, there was no consideration to a staff change, and in fact they actually had because of the instably making some changes. Kenny had the ability to go out and add two new staff members, not assistant coaches, but just you

know, bulk you could bulk up your staff a little bit. He didn't do that. He actually just promoted some guys from within and elevated them, which to me just screamed laziness. And as far as recruiting, I mean, this is just the way I see it. I don't know for sure, but I think these guys have kind of always felt like, you know, at least for the summer, at least for you know, the last

year or so, that they wouldn't be here after this year. And their work ethic has shown that on the recruiting trail, because you know, for this upcoming class meeting guys that are seniors. And I know we've talked about this before when I've been on with you guys, they're the only school within the Power six conferences that does not have a signed recruit and there's not even anybody like in the mix that we think is about to visit and make a

decision. So I mean, to me, that just I mean, it's almost like just blatantly not doing your job, especially when he's somebody that has said he's against going out and getting veterans in the portals. So it's a mystery. I don't know what the plan has been. I don't know what they're trying to do. And really that's been consistent from day one. It's not just hey, like when it comes to basketball, right, you think, okay, what are we doing? Who we who are? Like it's

the coach ever going to tell us kind of what the strategy is. But you look at the things off the floor, coaching staff, recruiting, same thing, like, what are what are we trying to do here? I saw an interview with a major league baseball player and he couldn't have been a bigger journy and but I think he sums up some of the personalities of professional athletes today. He basically goes, I don't care about baseball. He goes,

I love my wife and my kid and that's my life. He goes, this is a job and I really don't even want to be standing here talking to you at seven am. And the guy kept asking, going, we mean don't care about back baseball and he's like no, like like you know, I think we all wanted him to say no. Baseball has provided me millions of dollars and I love it, you know, like playing it

like a little kid and all that, but he didn't like it. Then you tune in two days later from that quote, you tune in the NBA All Star Game and it's become a joke, and it's that has been the topic of radio for the last three days of how did we get to this point? You tune into the the All Pro NFL Game and it's a joke and it's in it. Before it used to be a knock your hat off kind of kind of game and people wanted to win that game. They played

defense and all that. Where are we with these athletes today? Are we should we be judging them because they don't care? Or I don't know where to go. I want to say, Look, I'm not a professional athlete. I don't know how it is to be that today, But it just seems like they're so nonchalant about their success or the fact that they've provided millions and millions of dollars to play a kid's game. Yeah, I think.

And I went up to Indianapolis this past weekend, not for the actual All Star Game itself, but I took my son and my nephew and my dad went with me and we went and did the Butler Creating Game, and then we went to the NBA All Star practice and some of the fan events. And the NBA does a really good job of marketing their stars, and I think there's certain players like Steph Curry that even Lebron James. I know, people don't like Lebron and I get it, but he's you know, he

markets himself pretty well. And young kids really love the NBA. But it's really surprising to see when they get together in this kind of an event, they're all too cool for it. And I just don't know when that when that was established as far as like, hey, you know, like it's almost like it's beneath them, yet it actually is one of the bigger honors you can have, and you know, certain guys really embrace it, but a lot of them don't. And I saw it firsthand, and I felt

like an old guy like me, these guys my kids here? What what? What? What? Why is it? You know? Why isn't Kevin Durant look like he's happy to be here? It's just, you know, I don't know this. I don't know, man, I don't know if it's because they feel like that's the right way to go about it, because it'll make them more appealing to an audience outside of sports. But yeah,

I can't relate like you've never been a pro athlete. I would think if it was something that has given me the chance to really create generational wealth for myself and my family, Yes, well chaerish it, okay, And then let's let's let's connect the Dodgs to college at athletes. I cannot remember the last player, a video or sound that I heard from a player that said I love playing for this school. I always dream about playing for the school,

wearing this uniform so much to me, I cannot remember. We have been so distracted with the nil and where kids are going and transfer thing that I can't remember. I remember when t Will as much as he was crazy, but t Will came in and kissed the bird on the on the floor during his first like whatever red white scrimmage. He kissed it and was like, I'm I can't believe I'm here to play for Louisville basketball. I can't

remember the last player I've heard say that about their school. Again, I'm an old guy yelling at the sky, but I can't remember the last one that and I think that hurts the brand. No, I'm with you, and I think clearly the NIL stuff is a factor in this, but you can't really sell recruits. Hey, this is freaking Louisville, this is Kentucky. Not only is it a big program, but like it's it needs something to play here. Now that conversation, I think is replaced with you know,

how much money can I make? And it's you know, it's unfortunate. I don't think it's gonna change. But let me give you, guys one quick thing to get you excited for tonight's game. Okay, okay, okay, yeah, okay, Tom. Tom Crean is the analyst and he's really doing that role. I'm walking now the next coach at University of Louisville. I'm great. By the way, guys, I kind of like the NFL skills competition instead of the Pro Bowl. Maybe we get that in the

NBA too. Yeah, we'll see anything other than what happens Sunday night exactly, Nick Coffee three pm to six pm, IoT Sports Talk seven to ninety and of course the postgame show tonight. He'll be up and he will not be filing an HR issue for hostile work environment. Thank you, Nick. I love the pain, all right, I love the pain. Yeah, that's not bad. That's not bad. No pain, no gain tony No Weight Loss Centers of Louisville. I'm not I told you. I'm honest with
