Man, what a beautiful side. All right, back at the fireplace, lunch will be served, Oh, rib By burger, smoked, smoked Ribi burgers brought some and hot dogs in about a half hour or freshly made, handmade brought word I saw him making, Oh, oh my gosh, let's bring in our guy speaking of fresh meat. Nick Coffee, the definitive Louisville broadcaster from three piano six pm on Sports Talk seven ninety Nick. Uh, you're smoked out of the chimney. Nick, Yeah, you're We have a
pope. First reaction Pope to Kentucky disbelief, I would say that was that was really uh. It was about midway through the show yesterday where it was reported that he was a candidate, which he'd always been mentioned as somebody that was getting odds from the sports books. And there's clearly a connection played a Kentucky. He had a good run at BYU this year despite the early exit.
But I just could not process Kentucky going in that direction for a new coach, and honestly, Louisville and Kentucky both hiring guys that really aren't nearly as qualified as the previous candidates that they've had is more of a sign of
where programs are going to go to get a coach. However, Kentucky, I mean they you know, their fans were very, very opinionated in a way in regards to who louisvill ended up hiring with Pat Kelsey, you know, making it as if they'd never they never ever do that, They'd never hire a coach who's never won a tournament game. They would. You know, They're going to execute and get whoever they want. They're gonna make these guys say no. So I think they were more in disbelief than anybody.
And it still doesn't seem real. Mark Pope's probably a good coach, seems like a good dude, but to me, he doesn't fit their fan base at all. And you know, I think it's gonna take some time for them to fully expect to be back where they want to be. I think this was about optics because you had remember Billy Gillispie was like the seventh choice. Yeah, so Barnhard did what he had to do. He kicked the tires on Billy Donovan and Jay Wright. He talked to Baylor's co which Scott
drew obbously talked to you why can't have that curly. He did that, So then you're left with curly curly, that's it, not curly, that's not shemp. So so then you're left with with that second tier pere group of coaches, several of them with about the same amount of experience. So if you're gonna end up with Mark Pope anyway, don't let Ford by the
way pretty quick. Nos, don't let yeah, don't let four more coaches say no to you before you get to Mark Pope, Dick well and and one of the funniest things about their initial part of their search was that they clearly offered the job to to to Ja or to sorry to Scott Drew, and they pursued Billy Donovan however they could, given he's in the NBA, you know, early clearly they wanted him, and he told him no in a bunch of different ways, and they still were like, well, I
told him to know yet. That's like me. I used this analogy on the show yesterday. That's like me saying, you know, the hottest girl in the world, you know, she hadn't told me no yet, so I don't know her. You know what I'm saying, I haven't had access to her. I don't know her, but she doesn't tell me I know yet, So I think the rejections were pretty understandable. It wasn't like these
guys are not taking the Kentucky job because it's a terrible job. It's just because they're in really good situations or they just don't want to get back into the college game. But what I don't understand is that that second tier list, why was Mark Pope the top guy on that list? Yes, I
mean Bruce Curl would fit there perfectly, successful enough. I think what happened is Barnhart has worked with a guy for fourteen years that is not in any way aligned with his beliefs, the way he goes about, you know, in business and just things like that. And I think Barnhart was like, look, i went fourteen years working with a guy who we didn't like each other. He was difficult as can be. It was a terrible experience overall. This time around, I'm going to make the call because he didn't want
Cal. You know, he was over. He was over. The president stepped in and made sure they got Cal. And Mitch didn't want him, and cal knew that all along, which is why they didn't have a good relationship. But I think Barnhart said, look, I'm going to hire this guy. It's going to be me making the decision, and I need to have somebody that I work really well with, that I respect as a you know person in basketball and you know and outside of it, and that's Mark
Pope. So I think this is Barnhard just letting people know. Look, y'all can go crazy on message boards, lose your mind, claim that you know we're going after this guy or that guy. But I'm the one making the decision, and Mark Pope's my guy. Why is cal having such a hard time? I always call him, called him the music man. You know, it was Treuborn River City and you never get the instruments. But
he's having a hard time selling that he wants to be in Fayetteville. If you watch any of these videos, he clearly is thinking about are we done yet? Yeah, he's like I'm I He's clearly thinking about something else. He is not selling, and he doesn't look like he has the fire of I'm gonna take a team back to Lexington and whoop their ass. Yeah he doesn't look like that guy. He looks like crap. I should have retired. So I think the video that he posted basically making it official that he
was leaving, he looked genuinely like a sad human being. Yeah, And I think it's because he had cold feet about the what what had happened, how it had transpired. And I think, you know, he wanted on Monday for Kentucky to I guess, beg him to stay or try to, you know, convince him, and they didn't. They didn't want to do that because at the end of the day, I think a fresh start was
needed. But with Cal, I think he said a lot of he was really he was back to the very swagger type Cal that was saying all the big stuff and just kind of holding court, owning the room, commanding attention in that position like only really he and Rick Betino can I think, I mean that's I mean, we were very very fortunate to have those two guys here for quite a while. But I do think, you know, body
language, the fact that he's bringing his entire staff with him. I don't know if he's checked out, but I just you know, I think part of his real motivation for a while was to win at Kentucky, but not to get the fan base back on his side, but to stick it to him right, to let him know their complaining was was not warranted this and that. And now he's actually at a new spot, and I think he's
I think here's what. I think he's either going to be motivated to kill it there and shove it in Mitch Barnhardt's face, or he'll probably you know, kind of be the same guy that just doesn't have the energy and fire that he did the last two years in Lexington, and it'll be it'll be
a big bust because make it, make a mistake about it. He's making a lot of money and Arkansas does have basketball expectations, so he needs to win big there, or you know, they'll claim that this was a mistake due to the fact that again he's I mean, they're not paying what Kentucky paid him, but they're paying him a whole lot of money. Fat drug. Can it happy? Yeah? Did it? Did it come down to a power play between Barnhart and Call and Mitch One. I think what it
came down to was that they were they were clearly stuck together. Meaning ever it's a divorce that needed to happen. But you know, there was no easy exit strategy. Cali Perry was never going to walk away without having an opportunity to go elsewhere and still make a lot of money. And nobody realistically thought that cow would be a candidate because there's not schools that would pay what
Kentucky can pay. I mean, and there really isn't mean Ohio State there was from cal there they decided to bump up their their interim coach, so they were stuck together. I think was willing to just you know, yeah,
But that tells you how powerful Mitch is. Because the national championship winning coach at Kentucky doesn't lose in a head to head match with the athletic director, right the national championship coach at UK gets to say we need to move in another direction with the outthirt director and that, well that I think that shows you how powerful Mitch is. Sure, And I think on the crafts how how losing to Saint Peter's in Oakland and just having some things go on
there and really his comment about you know, we're a basketball school, which they are, but you know that was that was obviously a big deal to the football staff that that gave Mitch some power to be powerful, if that makes sense, because I think fans were well aware, like the Kentucky fans I think are going through it right now, but they wanted to They wanted a separation. I mean they did so, and I think Mitch knew that.
So therefore he could kind of operate in a way that you would never expect, which again is you know, he's got a championship coach that you know has has done great things there. But it had run its course, and I think Mitch felt, I guess, justified in handling it the way that he did. Let me let me share this post that I saw on a Kentucky message board with you guys, because I think it's spot on. It says, we thought Cal was the girlfriend who got ugly. We treated
him terribly until he finally walked out the door. When after some beautiful women we thought we could get we got turned down. Then we saw a picture of the exact same Cal on Twitter, started to realize just how pretty he was. We just couldn't see it because we were together too long. That's what today feels like. I thought Kyl was hideous these past five years, but today he seems like he was actually kind of cute the whole time.
Help me remember the toxic times? So who has Mark Pope in that story? Then up the plain girl from high school, the mousey girl. I don't know, it's hilarious because it's accurate. It's accurate. Yeah, you don't understand in a marriage. Number one issue is you don't for some is you don't understand what the other people are. The other person is doing in the relationship, right, you think they're doing half of what really what they are and bringing to the table. And I think cal was that there was
a hint of things. When Cal back what several years ago, said the most important thing to Kentucky Basketball's NBA Draft night, a lot of fans are like, Okay, you're winning, so we'll let that go go. But now you're not, and you're still churning out first round draft picks and we're not going to final fours, and we're kind of done with that. Cal branded the Kentucky era is cal Era like he was, Yes, the nil thing that he named lot Familia, that's his thing. I mean he wanted
to. I mean he's such an arrogant and egotistical person that he never once realized that, you know, one of the reasons why you're able to have the success that you have. A part of that is because you're at Kentucky. Man, he has the best job in the country, or had the best job in the country. Nobody will pay you more than they would pay you. It gets no better than that. You cannot climb the ladder any
higher than where you were. And I don't think he ever had any any awareess of like, hey, I should probably buckle down, get rejuvenated and work on this before I'll ruin it. His ego just doesn't let him do that. He never once realized, though, crap, I have the best possible situation I could ever have. Let's not mess it up. And he did because again he wasn't. They weren't awful, clearly, but they were no longer what they once were during calum They also weren't even what they were
when Tubby was there. To be honest with you, once he lost Kenny Payne, you know WHS eleven is reporting university if Kentucky has announced officially that Mark Pope is the new head coach from Mitch Barnhardt. As a captain of the ninety six championship team, Mark was a beloved and respected teammate. As a head coach, he is highly regarded nationally as an innovator. His teams run a unique and dynamic up tempo offense and they get after it on defense.
He is a strong recruiter with international ties and a person of integrity. He fully embraces our high expectations as standards, and I know that our fans are acquainted with Mark will get reacquainted with Mark thing he has to do. Nick, and same with Pat Kelsey. As a symbol of roster, and speaking of that is Louisville's roster coming in to view at all. Well, they have a big, big weekend coming up here with some transfers visiting.
They've got the Chris Youngblood is his name. He actually played at South Florida most recently was the co AAC Player of the Year. He's gonna be visiting. Also a guard from FAU I believe his name is Nick Davis, He's gonna be visiting. And then there's a Dante Maddox from Toledo, a transfer. These are all guys. They were all league performers at the mid major level. So I mean, if you could get all three of those guys
that would be humongous. And then early next week one of the best bigs that is in the portal from Arizona he is going to be visiting Louisville as well. So you know, they're in the mix for a lot of guys. And I feel like, you know, if if they miss out on this guy or that guy at this position, they still have another one in
line. So it really comes down to the caliber guys they get. But obviously they're gonna fill the roster and so far, I think you have to like you know, there's not many of them just yet, but you have to like what you see. I want to say something real quick about Mark Pope. Mark Pope seems like a really good Dude's Zach Cahill Finell former louisll assistantor Chris Mack just worked for him at BYU the last couple of years. He speaks highly of him. I think he's a good dude, good coach,
but he's a dork. And that's okay, I'm a dork. But one thing that I as a Louisville fan, I'm happy to know Kentucky when they're at their very best, they're at the tip top and you hate them. It's when they've got a larger than life coach who's winning at a high level. Nobody did that better than Rick Patino, John Calipari, Mark Pope. He's not the larger than life figure. He doesn't give them the cool factor. And that makes me happy. And here's what's crazy, these numbers.
We'll see what happens when these two guys get settled in who's the better coach, who has more success? But Pat Kelsey has been to twice as many tournaments as Mark Pope has. He has won his conference in twelve years as a head coach. He's finished first in his league six times. Mark Pope has and done at once. So just the the the the trash talk from Kentucky fans about how we hired a guy nobody knows what's he ever done.
They hired a dude that literally would never be a name they would know if he didn't play for Kentucky. M Louisville did that recently, didn't they have that way? So yeah, all this trash talk about Louisville search, there's some humble pie going on, no doubt. All right, his name is Nick Coffee listened to him, I'm sure some other news will break before three pm. That's what a great afternoon show does is be able to chew on those things that break. Let's do it with Nick Coffee on Sports Talk
seven ninety three pm to six pm every single day. Nick, thanks for your help and thank you Nick. I love the video that your son you sent me of your son pronouncing Mark po Mark, Mark poop, Mark poops name. A lot of Kentucky fans are agreeing with that sentiment. We used to call Mark the football coach that because you remember he used to sweat down his cat, Mark poops, his Mark poops. All right, So all

Next with Denise Spellergreni and the Bloomberg My name man it it's coming up next. Ton News Radio eight forty eight. Hello Greenee with the Bloomberg Money Minute. We are We are eating these smoked Ribbi burgers right now with Hogfather's saw as the fireplace. Oh my, it was so so much, and I almost, I know, I was almost didn't get even. I almost didn't put a bun on it because I was like, you don't really need it. You can just eat it with your fingers. A burger so delicious,
it's awesome. The Hogfathers are here cooking it up. All right. So now it's time for reeling in the years. What decade, mister Gusts, are we doing? Seventy seventies? All right? Nineteen seventies? Okay, you know I think that I deal with that. This could be a tough one. All right. Here first, when you're ready, your mustache and your green shag card. What a fool believes seventy four. Now a little later than that, there's probably seventy eight Doobies, a little bit of
me. Look, get some chorus in there. I don't want to cut it off too early. Every song they ever wrote, am I right? Yeah? Oh my gosh, I worked that Sunday Morning shift. It was uh Doobie Brothers stuff like this. It was really light, you know. All right, that's enough michaelographic pop song. Some people do not like him. All right? Here with next one seventy eight, seventy nine, seventy nine. Yeah, it's seventy eight or seventy nine. Oh so good,
so good right in there. It's stressful being on this end of this, I know, right, I told you, Yeah, it's tough. Yeah, that's why we celebrate so hard when we get it. Yeah, seventy eight, seventy nine, that's where I am so far. All right, I'm gonna make it a little bit tougher now, Okay, I think this might mix it up a little bit for you. So oh the Celton was a swaying. I'm still in the same neck of the woods. Yeah, I am too. Okay, seventy there were so many songs of so many
different genres that were all so good. Yeah, it's the best decade for music to me. In seventies, I don't know. I think the sixties are pretty strong. The sixties are hot. I'm a huge sixties because it was such a contrast. It was a contrast from the early sixties to the late six He's in the sound and I love that beach stuff and all that in the early and then transitioning to more rock. But I like the musicianship
and the longer songs of the seventies. Remember, oh yeah, the nine you had disco yet singer songwriter, you had the arena rock bands getting going. I mean that just had everything. And then these one hit wonders like Gloria Gaynor. What am I? You know this one? No, let's see, you'll get it here in a second of these sings Pablo Cruz, good guess this is one of the I think maybe one of their final renditions.
Maybe wait these things you'll know it. I asked the Pablo Cruz guy, why did you guys name your band Pablo Cruz and not Hank Leebowitz. You know who this is now, no wings. I think this is one of their last hits maybe as a group. I don't remember having too many more after this one. I'm on seventy I'm still on seventy eight. Or Denise calls seventy nine. I say seventy nine, because wins they wrapped up in eighty one, remember left rand and then yeah more, I'll give you
one more, Yeah, give you one more? All right? This this might seal it a little bit right here. Seventy nine. Yeah, I'm with you, Denise. This is your call. Alright, Denise, you do it. Final answer. I gotta say seventy nine, hoping to make it three for three. This all right? All right? Finally Speller, Denise Peller green ead Gus. Final answer is Denise for the win, Ding ding Ding nineteen seventy nine. Woo, Denise, great job. Oh look at that. What I want is I want to win some free French fries
and a hot dog? Can you kick that up? You got it? Yeah, I'll send it to you as soon as possible. I'm sure you PS will have it for you in a couple door. Dad, Yeah, I'm there. I'm waiting at the door. Now, all right, for a Friday, we not doing well. No, we won the prize when it comes to the music, but it was not the case for stocks right
now. Dows down three hundred points, s and P five hundred and forty two, Nasdaq down what one hundred and sixty five with these bank earnings and a couple banks lower, including JP Morgan Chase also a report showing stronger than expected import prices, and I just want to check. We also had a report on Michigan consumer sentiment and it fell, So that's never good news easier. But the big, big, big problem, guys, it's what you've
been talking about. With Israel bracing for a possible attack from Iran. No one likes having to make this kind of choice about whether stocks are going to go up or not Monday morning when they're looking at this happening on Friday and over the weekend. Right so some sell off as investors try to sort of
hedge against something happening with Iran maybe retaliating against Israel over the weekend. We've got gold futures sitting at a record high this morning, just to show you how risk off we are as investors look for safe Haven's Crude Oil also hire right now as well. And by the way, stub Hub is seeking to go public by late summer. According to the information, they've just been a big hit lately. Of course, there's that post pandemic boom in sports and
live concerts. Taylor Swift and Beyonce of course, the big stars there, as well as your favorite sports athletes. With news Radio eight forty whs Bloomberg Money Report, I'm Denise Pelliguini Go seventies, one of the dumbest videos of all times. Yes, playing air guitar and airic keyboards on the docks, walking down the dock like tough guys. Count the number of times he crosses his arms in there, it's like thirty two or something. Yeah. Yes,
And there's a girl just walking around randomly. Did they try to hit on her at all? I forgot No. Now doesn't she just kind of stand there in like selfless fashion and they're just singing right up in her face or something? I can't remember. Yeah, it's really bad, but I did. I went and bought that same exact shirt without the sleeves and the little checker designer cross the chest. Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course, it's nineteen eighty. Yeah, why wouldn't. I would have been weird
if I didn't. All right, let's get Greg Gally yet. Hold on, I'll go get him. I gotta go set him up because he's in the show. Okay, all right, he's in the studio back at the round by the way, the hog Fathers. You can come in. Yeah, we're at the fireplace in middle fire place. The hog Fathers are giving away a grilling experience, so you can register while you're here and they will come in cook for you if you win. What they're cooking today, Yeah,

We've got some free sodas and then the smoke ribbi and they have their own hog father sauce that they put on the burger bund so it is de Yeah, we just crushed two of them, Yes we did, and the guy was like, you don't really need a bund, just pop it right in your mouth. I love it.
Uh. And then the menu tomorrow will be chopped beef sliders, chicken wings, hot a pinot cheddar sausage, get in ribs ten percent off most everything, half off the Danos stuff, the fireplace in Middletown. Come see it's all right, Greg Galliean, How are you doing well? How are you guys? We're fantasicing great, happy Friday. Yeah, so we have a double header today or what happened? Yeah, yesterday. Matter of fact, our staff and our ground screw is getting really tired of pulling tarp.
We've been doing it all a week and we just couldn't fight mother nature anymore last night. So we finally just threw our hands up and gave in. And so we'll play a double header tonight, first game starting at five oh five pm. Gates will open at four point thirty and of course, being a Friday night, that means six dollars Marguerite to Madness will go on with our friends that number one tequila. So and tonight, if you go back twenty five years from today, it was the first day that the doors at
Sluggerfield opened up. So we'll be celebrating our twenty fifth anniversary tonight of the stadium. Oh and the place still looks new Yeah, it does. It does so in honor of that, the guy is the Bats team is going to take the field in Game two tonight wearing the old purple, green and gold uniforms of the River God cool dude. Is any merchandise gonna go along with that? We have merch Yep, merches store. Thought it'll be a
fitting way to celebrate this. We're gonna do it again later in the summer where we're gonna play as the River Bats again, but we're also going to try to bring back at that time some team members from the two thousand team and hopefully manager Dave Miley will come in and visit. So we're looking forward to a big event later in this summer. But any tickets left for Thunder over Louisville at Slugger great questions. That is a great question, And yes
there are obviously a little different scenario this year with Thunder at Slugger. The Bats actually will be on the road, playing away from Slugger Field next weekend, but the ballpark will be open and as everybody in this community knows, especially those that have gone to Slugger for under date, it's the best place in town to view Thunder. Over Louisville, especially if you have family members
that are young. We have that giant kids playground. We risk band every fan so you can come and go out of the ballpark as much as you want. We like to promote the fact we have real restrooms, unlike the porter potties that you'll see lying up and down the waterfront. Great food, and we've got three of the top regional music acts in this part of the
country performing starting mid afternoon, taking us to almost fireworks time. The Juice Box Heroes will lead off, followed by J. D. Shelburne and his band, and then we'll be closing things up with the Crashers, and we're selling wristbands for fans to sit in the outfield grass and enjoy the music, watch the air show, and of course watch Thunder later that evening. We used to be parked out there for Thunder for so many years with QMF and
then with the Fox and YEP. We always had a great time and you never know what you got. It was either eighty and sunny or I remember sitting out there and coats and a scarf and it was snowing on one of them. They're trying to play baseball in the snow, and it's just so much funny because you have a seat, Can you choose? Can you choose your seat? Greg, like say, I want to sit in the shade? Can you do that? Yeah, you certainly can. Obviously most fans
gravitate. And we have just a few seats left over on the first base and right field side, because that's obviously the best view of the firework shows. It's angled and you're looking right at the second Street bridge from over there. But we have tickets available over there, still just a few, and then tickets over on the left field side, but again a little different. The bats aren't playing, but go to bats baseball dot com to buy your
tickets for Thunder, and Tony will tell you if you've been there. The stadium does shake during the Thunder firework show. You can feel it move. It's awesome. What about parking? Parking, it's obviously, like all other parking venues around downtown, ours is controlled by the city, so it'll go quickly. So there's not a lot we can do there to help you on parking, right, but I would suggest just getting there very early, like early morning. That's what people most do, and they line up down Main
Street. Now, I do want to let folks know we're home this weekend. The forecast looks super for Saturday and Sunday. We're going to partner with our friends over at Churchill Downs tomorrow for a celebration of Derby one fifty and with that we'll be giving away vintage Derby glasses to the first thousand folks coming in Tomorrow night. We've got jockeys and trainers coming over from Churchill Downs for a meet and greet along with Churchill Down President Mike Anderson will be with us.
Old Forrester will be on our main concourse. We'll have bourbon tasting going on. Fans can buy flights four different types of bourbon two ounce pores for six dollars. Then the Bats we're gonna play as the Derby City Mint Jewelps tomorrow night and the actually is being featured this weekend on ESPN as the Minor
League promotion of the month, so we're proud of that. And we'll have a special call of the post Bugle to start the game, and we'll have Churchill Charlie there, the Churchill Downs mascot, the Traveling Derby Music Museum exhibit will be on display and it's also every Saturday night at the ballpark at Lovla
Sluggerfield. More home is a wine up Sandardy and also six dollars craft beer, so you'll be able to get six wine pores from our friends at Cupcake Vineyards along with six dollars craft beer tomorrow night from our friends over It Against the Grain and those are twelve ounce can so that's quite a value. Nice. And then we'll wrap up the evening Tomorrow night with a big fireworks show thanks to our friends over at Black Diamond Pest Control and come back Sunday,
final game of the homestand a one five afternoon start. We are going to open the gates early on Sunday, guys at eleven thirty because it's the annual pregame autograph session with the Bats players and coaches that'll start at about eleven forty on the field that's brought to you by our friends over at Train Heating and Air. Of course, every Sunday's Kids Day, kids eat free, kids
run the bases, and kids inflatables. So I've got a lot going on at the blow Yeah, I mean, gosh, you couldn't fit anything else in don at Slucker Field for the Bats again. Today will be a double header starting at five o'clock. Columbus Clippers are in town. Rain out yesterday, doubleheader today, all the specials, fireworks and all that. Thank you for sneaking in all these drink specials, Greg gall Yeah, well we're thinking of you, so we thought it'd be a prood and since our Thunder event.
If you show up for Thunder, it's sponsored by our friends of course and fire and security. We'll have a lot of security folks there to put out any fires you might start with your drinking habits. Well there you go. Yeah, he knows this well all right, Greg gallihead with the Louisvill Bads. Thanks for coming in, buddy, go get him today. Have a great weekend. You got it. Awesome. Yeah, the Louisvill Bad We've been there so many times for Thunder. We have broadcast other places with
