Speaker 1 (00:01):
Thanks for coughing in the mic before we get.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
The air, didn't John? Did you hear that cough?
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Yeah? He heard it.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
It came through your mic because I.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Did this pretty loud cough it is.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Can I go? Did I go through?
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (00:16):
It sounds like a hollow whooping whooping kind.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Of your t dap shot.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Yeah, yeah, you're fired. John, News Radio eight forty w
h A s as Tony and Dwight Chill brought you
by the Kentucky Office of Highway Safety. Do you know
the difference between this is the stupid stuff that bounces
in my head when I'm trying to drive home because
I'm not trying to think about how bad the show was.
(00:42):
What's the difference between inexplicable and unexplainable? Inexplicable and unexplainable?
John were a college graduate.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
I feel like inexplicable is like something that is like
flat is another big word, flabbergas like surprising.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Hitch flabber gas. Can I tell you no, I I
I want to start using inexplicable instead of unexplainable.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Are they the same thing?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
They're exactly the same thing. They're exactly the same thing. Yes,
that's what I thought in my head. I was like,
that sounds like they're they mean the exact same thing.
So I said, I don't know, because I do hate
people that fit in a word that people don't usually use,
just to kind of flex a little bit with their vocal.
And I'm not saying inexplicable is a flex. I mean,
(01:26):
but when you live in Louisville, Kentucky, it is. If
we're not broadcasting in Manhattan, dude, this is Kentucky. Inexplicable
could be what you use an infensive word for.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Oh my gosh, you're right, inexplicable, unable to be explained
or accounted for example, for some inexplicable reason. Her mind
went completely blank. Wow, it is.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
See I thought inexplicable was despicable. That's what.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Oh no, see, here's where I'm going. I am solving
the world's problems.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Despicable when you despise something, right, yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yesh no, but this is I want to say, it's unexplainable,
Like you say, you know, it's unexplainable why John enjoys
doing the show with us. It's inexplicable. And I don't
even know if he's there already because earlier in the show.
I said, Hey, John Olden, He went, what.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
It's on their job?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
What I even been a week yet, man, two weeks,
two weeks for like two years.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
So from now on, it's inexplicable. That's what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
You gonna start saying that.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Yeah, I'm gonna start saying inexplicable, inexplicable.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
I want to go somewhere here, but I'm not.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I'm here's my boinker. I'm taking the arm.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Okay, good, good boy.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Well, yesterday President Donald Trump announced ninety days suspension on
the mostly the new tariffs, and polls. Stocks rallied, they rallied. UH.
It reduced reciprocal tariffs to the rate of ten percent
to numerous countries. However, China, Kina UH. He increased the
tariffs on China imports one hundred and twenty five percent, UH,
(03:06):
stating lack of respect towards the global markets. The stock
market exploded upwards with the news. The Nasdaq had the
biggest day in twenty four years. I'm not sure how
that stuff works, Like, I'm not sure how tariffs and
the stock market works, you know, But I do promise
I'm gonna get on Facebook today and get educated for
the experts, so I can come in here be more
(03:27):
and for tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Tariff suck if you if you buy and sells stuff,
tariff sucks. It just does. Look if if his plan
is to fix the tariffs and move and even things out, okay,
but it still hurts a lot of companies. And you know,
basically you're you know, if you're selling light bulbs, and
light bulbs are on the boat, you gotta pay thirty percent.
It's thirty percent or whatever it is before they unload it.
(03:50):
So it's tough. The thing is the Chinese, I don't
think are gonna blink. Their culture is five thousand years old.
Their problem is the same problem we have. Sometimes are
he go like America, we have an ego and we
back it up. But the Chinese culture is five thousand
years old. They look down on all of us. That's
why they don't care. They caused the COVID pandemic. Yeah,
(04:12):
they don't care because they're they've been around for five
thousand dollars care.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
America's been here for five thousand to two years, and
we don't give up.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
I don't think they'll blink. They have millions in slave labor. Well,
they don't care. They're like, we can outlast you. So
I just think I hope they come out of this
thing because we need it fixed. But well they did
rap by the way they did rally, and this is
the difference you brought it up. So I'm gonna say
two thousand and eight was real Depression era stuff, savings
(04:44):
and loans, the car industry, real estate all collapsed at
the same time. It was. It was terrible. This is
a self induced sell off. But here's why we all
get frustrated a rich guy, because you don't if the
market's bad, rich guy wins. If the market's good, rich
guy wins. Because what happens the market dives seven thousand points.
(05:08):
What is rich guy you do? He gobbles in wow,
and then Rod's it back up in rich guy wins again.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Wait a minute, Wait a minute, are you telling me
that I should buy low and so high? Well, that's
just crazy. It's you know what it is, it's inexplicable.
Washington d c of course to Kentucky where it is.
I like to call us Florida Junior. Earlier this week,
James K. King was arrested by deputies in Kentucky, where
(05:38):
he was found walking naked around Highway thirty two eighty six.
He was approached by King was approached by deputies. He
was naked. They said, what are you doing? He said, well,
I'm going to get some pants. OFFICI will say that
good answer. Here's a shock. It's a very good answer.
It's a great answer, your pantser. This is going to
(05:59):
shock you. Hey, John Auden, I've put a hat right
in front of you. Okay, here we go, John, John
Anthony Venetti, I put a hat in front of you.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
I'm gonna need both of you to hold onto your hats.
Officials say the king was under the influence of a
controlled substance inexplicable, complicable.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Then he started kicking the patrol door without.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
That's always that's always good when you start kicking the
window or the car door of the squad card. But
that's always a good way to do it.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
But he's naked.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
The cops hated to, of course, because.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Now they got to go clean their cruiser out, like, uh, hey, hey, Jim,
how is your day? Got into a fight with a
naked drug addict covered in Uh? When you put I
want to ask Tuesday, do you want to ask Matt Sanders.
If you're listening, let us know. If an officer has
to lock somebody up and they got a mess on themselves,
(06:56):
is the officer responsible for cleaning up?
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Absolutely? Why That's why they argue which squad car there
going in? You're like, no, no, no, you transport him. The
other guy goes, no, no, no, no, you answered the call.
And here's the thing. Where has Matt Sanders been. Uh,
he's abandoned our show for months?
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Hey, listen, I'm not supposed to say. If you're listening
right now on your radio, don't listen for like ten seconds.
Matt Sanders is deep undercover. Really, yes, he's deep undercover,
and there's some narcotic ring, okay, and he's disguised right now.
Speaker 1 (07:30):

know anything.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Doctor ding Dong here to deliver the drugs. Hang on,
let me taste it. First, pulls out a switch plate,
stabs the little heroin bag. He licks it a little bit.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
And then they go, I wonder where the drug dealers were,
and he reaches down the concrete, he feels the payment
and goes here.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Ten minutes ago, Oh, breaking news, John Stanning goes, I
just got an email from uh, you know what. I
think that's a lie. He says, I got an email
from Matt Sanders.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
No, no, no, no, Matt Sanders is deep undercover and we
don't know. We don't want to blow his cover.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
He's doctor ding Dong. Doctor, he's busting the drug rings
in Louisville. I hope you're happy that you've blown his cover.

had gotten on the boat for sightseeing tour of London. Unfortunately,
he got on the wrong boat. Instead, he got on
a boat that was supposed to be It was a
party boat for a bunch of one hundred and fifty
die hard soccer fans.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Oh boy called the south Hooligans.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Listen to the name of this soccer Hoogan club, South
End United Football Club.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Oh boy.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Well, some of the fans noticed that Evan was sitting
quietly by himself. They walked over and asked, hey, are
you okay. He started explaining the situation. The soccer team
fans immediately adopted Evan as a new shrimper is a
shrimper like a.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
I don't know is that a soccer term? John, isn't
a soccer term.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I'm trying to use the old Google machine.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
I just I don't care. I don't these people that
want to use the English translation for soccer terms, well
you live there.
Speaker 2 (10:05):

was the first one to put his foot down and
go we're not doing this anymore. It's a field any uniform,
and I went I with Peyton Manning.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Pitching a kid anyway. One hundred and fifty die hard
fans from the South End United football club in London

the new Shrimper. Feding beers even gave him a ticket
to the game, where fans started channing, Evan is this shripper?
Evan is this shripper?

look these people take soccer a little seriously.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Okay, Chief Rick mccobbin, thank you for listening. Chief says

that is going on downtown is you can't stop baseball.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Can't stop baseball.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Nothing can stop baseball. No, actually we're gonna we're still
having games at Slugger Field.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
At this point, my friend Meg Leonard sent me a
picture from yesterday's Businessman Special in front of the number
one to Quila CANTEENA and say, hey, look where I'm at.
And I was super jealous. As we bring in Greg
Galli at these afternoon games are quite fun.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Yeah, they are.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
And what's interesting is since we do kids run the
bases on Sunday afternoons after our games, we've now instituted
the senior stroll. Yeah, on Wednesdays, every Wednesday Seniors Day.
So we're letting our friends that are fifty five and
older coming out.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
He had to do it, he had he knew to
stab us in the heart. Fifty fifty five and older
senior strog.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
So Greg Gallyeah with the Bats joins us and I'll
tell you the Bats, pound for pound, you're the best.
When it comes to promotions, one of my favorite promotions
is coming up that I've ever heard of. But we're
gonna talk about Saturday first. Okay, first of all, I
want to talk about Kentucky Flood from Kentucky Team Kentucky
Flood Relief, because this is cool what you are doing.
Speaker 5 (17:22):
We are donating two dollars from every advanced ticket sale
for the entire week this week over to the Team
Kentucky Relief Fund. Nice trying to help his best. We can,
not only people here in the Louisville area, but also
people throughout the state. Frankfurt has been impacted dramatically, so
is Carrollton and other areas of our state, and we're
just trying to do our part to help out as
best we can. So again, we'll be donating two dollars
(17:44):
from every advance ticket sold throughout the week and that'll
go over to the Team Kentucky Relief Fund.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
So let's let's get the inside scoop. So how far
did it come in? What did it look like from
your from.
Speaker 5 (17:56):
Your Once I got notification on Saturday that there was
going to be no thunder. I had got in a
conversation with our head groundskeeper, Todd Schaeffer, and he was
in the process of putting up our floodwall right underneath
the concourse area in centerfield behind the batter's eye. We
can actually install a floodwall there, and we got into
(18:17):
a conversation. I said, I think we need to bring
in all the lawn equipment because they were expecting when
it crested basically last night, that our grounds keeping area
of the garage where it houses all our lawn equipment,
was going to get cut off whole stadium, which it did.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
And that's not cheap. Those are our cheap So we.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
Brought all the equipment inside the flood wall, which would
be right behind the center field fence that we would
need all week long to put on a game, as
far as mowing grass, lining the field, everything, dragging the
infield dirt. So all that equipment right now is stored
I mean right behind the center field fence.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
So obviously, and we went out and.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
Bought a big industrial sized pump with a baseball fire hose,
and we have a manhole cover right there behind the
centerfield fence because all the water was coming in from
Witherspoon and it would have gone on too our field.
But we opened up that humongous manhole cover, put the
pump right there next to it with a giant basically
fire hose size pump hose, and pump that water right
(19:12):
back out that was coming in from Witherspoon back out
over the fence onto Witherspoon. So we're just recycling it,
trying to keep it away from the field. So we
came very close to being effective. But it looks like
the worst is behind us.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Well, yesterday on the way in because sixty and I
still got this is the greatest promotion coming out. I
want to talk about this, but I gotta go sixty
five because sixty four shut down now because of the flood.
But I've noticed all the grounds crew out there and
the field looked immaculate.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
I mean, look, well, with the amount of rain we've
had and we certainly haven't had to water the field. Now,
the sunlight, I mean, it's it's very lush. Here's the
thing is, we're gonna be sitting here three months from now,
We're gonna be talking.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
About drought probably, Yeah, exactly, that's.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
Exactly what usually balances itself out.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
The faucet turns off and you're like, oh darn it,
here's my question. It's like, hey, let me know where
the flood gates are, just right, you know, where did
we put those?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Last time we used it was nineteen thirty four, mister Seasons.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Look behind the old scoreboard.
Speaker 5 (20:09):
What's interesting is we were looking at him marking right
underneath our windows on the second floor, on the outside
of the stadium on Preston Street side. There's a mark
there where the nineteen thirty seven flood was.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Right, So this is before the Army Corps.
Speaker 5 (20:22):
Of Engineers, before the new dams were built. So that's
how height it actually got back then, right, because we're
in a building that was built in the eighteen hundred.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Yes, so it didn't get to that point.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Okay, okay, all right, let's talk about We got baseball
that yeah.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
Yeah, we played yesterday afternoon. We're going to play tonight
and throughout the weekend.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
And then Saturday the game is on.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
Yeah, we're on. We're gonna play at two o five.
We're not going to have the concert. We're in the process.
I've had a conversation with the Crashers. I've spoken with
Major League Baseball. We were asking major League Baseball, since
they determine our schedule, please put us at home for
Thunder next year. The Crashers are certainly in for that.
So we're just going to try to roll everything over
to next year and do basically a big redo like
(21:01):
we did coming out of the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Okay, listen, if you have a dog at home, Oh
yeah you, Oh my gosh, you don't want to miss
this game. Yep, this is the coolest thing ever Friday Night.
Of course, you got six dollars number one Marguerite.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
Right, you got three dollars can Miller Light and Coors Light.
Thanks to our friends at iHeartMedia who are sponsoring our game.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Time Happy. But listen to this. If you got a dog,
it's dog night, and that's not good enough going out
and watching the best game in Louisville with your dog.
The first thousand are going to get a dog jersey.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
First thousand dogs that come in we'll get a louisvill
Bats dog jersey. We figured, you know, kids get jerseys
all the time, adults, why not take care of the
dogs one time. So the dogs are going to have
a very attractive dog jersey at Louivell Bats and they
can walk around town showing off their allegiance to the Bats.
And we're really excited. It's really attractive red jersey, and
(21:53):
I want to thank our friends that are at the
Cambria Hotel for making this possible. Proceeds from the dog's
tickets for Friday night will go straight back to the
Kentucky Humane Society. So again, that's Friday Night game time
seven to fifteen. Gates open at six, which means the
game time happy hour starts at six and it'll go
all the way until last call in the middle of
the eighth inn A.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Right, Well, where am I parking?
Speaker 5 (22:13):
You're gonna park basically anywhere you normally would accept north
of the stadium, which will be right down by the river.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Okay, so we have is obviously that's awfu.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Lit, that's been wet.
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Yeah, but the parking lot right across from us and
left field across from the Paul Horning statue, ye yea, yeah,
that's still open all right, and obviously on street parking
either on Main Street or towards as you go towards
Broadway in that Okay, I.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Want to talk about the greatest seats and the greatest bargain. Yeah,
in any sporting event there is. I'm talking about these
on deck seats that come with all you can eat
and all you can drink. And I'm talking to alcohol
to talk about this because i cannot wait to go.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
It's our on deck Club. We've taken the two best
rows in the stadium right behind home plate and converted
them into the theaters dial padded seats, so you're sitting
now closer to the batter than the picture is to
the batter so you'll hear some interesting things when you're
sitting there. You have weight service which will go and
get you concession items if you want to order those.
(23:13):
We have QR codes affixed to every seat so you
can order that. But you can also, like Dwight said,
walk right back up the tunnel there behind home plate.
We have a lounge set up in there with televisions
to keep up on the game, which also has a
buffet and again with all you can eat and all
you can drink beer and wine available for one price
includes your ticket, includes your parking, and it's one hundred
and ten dollars per person. We want to take the
(23:36):
NBA floor seats and bring that concept to Louisville Slugger Field.
And we think we've done it very well because folks
that have sat there already this year, I mean they've
had a great time. And word is spreading because I
was out the other night at a venue and folks
saw me and recognized the name and they wanted to
start talking about the on deck seats.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Yeah, of course, because not only is it, it's affordable.
It's amazing. It's super affordable when you talk.
Speaker 5 (24:00):
And you can do it as a small group so
you don't have to go sit in a suite. You
can actually get ten, twelve to fifteen people right now
until these seats sell out as far as season tickets possibly,
and you can actually bring your friends and everybody can
sit down there in these first two rows right behind
home play.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
It's aweseazing.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
It is awesome. Greg Kelli at go to bats Baseball
dot com, get your tickets in advance. If you do
do the advance, it'll be two dollars for this flood relief.
And there are games. If people are like everything, it
is not. Dwight's got a thing at the Gold House.
The Bats have.
Speaker 5 (24:32):
Something come visit us and visit our new team store
which has been totally remodeled. I need to go get
brand new gear, which Tony Finnetti will be inside when
you come. They'll be buying a brand new red Nike
Louisa Bats quartersip. Yes, so you'll see Tony there.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
They will.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
But the folks at Fanatics have basically taken over our
team store and have outfitted it with really cool Nike
under armour gear, all kinds of top quality merchandise and
a totally new facelift for the team store. So another
new feature at Louis Sliggerfield. What about the old logo
still available there? Redbird stuff? Redbird stuff is still there.
It's sold very well during that first homestand when we
(25:07):
played the Memphis Redbirds and we played as the Redbirds.
But our new secondary logo, which is a knockoff of
our old River Bats logo from the first couple of
years with the Flying Bat. If folks haven't had a
chance to see that, we've got that on merchandise, some
new gear right now. If you haven't seen the new
decorated windows we have along Main Street, We've taken three
(25:27):
of the large windows as you drive along the front
of the stadium. One window now is dedicated to Joey
Vado when he played for the Bats, the other windows
dedicated to Elie Dela Cruz, and the final one is
dedicated to the Bats in general, along with Buddy Batts.
So a lot of stuff going on.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
You've been around baseball a long time. Obviously, the collapse
in the Dominican Republic bar is hits all major League Baseball.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
These moments of Santogo Dotel was a hell of a
pitcher and just the people that lost their lives in
that situation is so bad. And yeah, I feel so
sorry for everybody it's involved.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yep, I know that there's that Dominican in Major League
base a connected forever, So I knew that would touch
a tone with you. All Right, folks, baseball is happening.
Get on downtown and let's get something going, because that's
what we really have to do. We have to turn
this around. Part of my notes tonight was like, what
do we do to help some of these vendors and
businesses that have lost this huge weekend of thunder that

Hey, speaking of dogs, is your dog over fifty pounds
as you can over ten pounds. If that's the case,
they could be a blood donor at Jefferson Animal Hospital. Yeah,
I said blood donor. Your dog your cat can get
blood and save lives just like we can't. It's true,
but man, it's in a big way. Every time your
dog or your cat gives blood, it doesn't just save
(27:10):
a life, it saves up to four to six lives
of other pets. Folks. That's huge. But there's also benefits
for you and your pet. You'll get regular examinations, you'll
get vaccines, and much much more. Now, let's find out
if your pet is a is available or capable to
be a blood donor, call five zero two nine hundred pets.

Hospital on the outer.

wife's gonna go. I heard Tony and Tony Venetti on
the radio saying, and it's two years, no interest, no
(27:56):
payment down. Let's do that. Well, do that, no payment,
no interest, no payments for two years. Let's go nothing down.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Can I go? Did I go through?
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (00:16):
It sounds like a hollow whooping whooping kind.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Of your t dap shot.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Yeah, yeah, you're fired. John, News Radio eight forty w
h A s as Tony and Dwight Chill brought you
by the Kentucky Office of Highway Safety. Do you know
the difference between this is the stupid stuff that bounces
in my head when I'm trying to drive home because
I'm not trying to think about how bad the show was.
(00:42):
What's the difference between inexplicable and unexplainable? Inexplicable and unexplainable?
John were a college graduate.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
I feel like inexplicable is like something that is like
flat is another big word, flabbergas like surprising.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Hitch flabber gas. Can I tell you no, I I
I want to start using inexplicable instead of unexplainable.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Are they the same thing?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
They're exactly the same thing. They're exactly the same thing. Yes,
that's what I thought in my head. I was like,
that sounds like they're they mean the exact same thing.
So I said, I don't know, because I do hate
people that fit in a word that people don't usually use,
just to kind of flex a little bit with their vocal.
And I'm not saying inexplicable is a flex. I mean,
(01:26):
but when you live in Louisville, Kentucky, it is. If
we're not broadcasting in Manhattan, dude, this is Kentucky. Inexplicable
could be what you use an infensive word for.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Oh my gosh, you're right, inexplicable, unable to be explained
or accounted for example, for some inexplicable reason. Her mind
went completely blank. Wow, it is.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
See I thought inexplicable was despicable. That's what.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Oh no, see, here's where I'm going. I am solving
the world's problems.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Despicable when you despise something, right, yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yesh no, but this is I want to say, it's unexplainable,
Like you say, you know, it's unexplainable why John enjoys
doing the show with us. It's inexplicable. And I don't
even know if he's there already because earlier in the show.
I said, Hey, John Olden, He went, what.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
It's on their job?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
What I even been a week yet, man, two weeks,
two weeks for like two years.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
So from now on, it's inexplicable. That's what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
You gonna start saying that.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Yeah, I'm gonna start saying inexplicable, inexplicable.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
I want to go somewhere here, but I'm not.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I'm here's my boinker. I'm taking the arm.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Okay, good, good boy.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Well, yesterday President Donald Trump announced ninety days suspension on
the mostly the new tariffs, and polls. Stocks rallied, they rallied. UH.
It reduced reciprocal tariffs to the rate of ten percent
to numerous countries. However, China, Kina UH. He increased the
tariffs on China imports one hundred and twenty five percent, UH,
(03:06):
stating lack of respect towards the global markets. The stock
market exploded upwards with the news. The Nasdaq had the
biggest day in twenty four years. I'm not sure how
that stuff works, Like, I'm not sure how tariffs and
the stock market works, you know, But I do promise
I'm gonna get on Facebook today and get educated for
the experts, so I can come in here be more
(03:27):
and for tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Tariff suck if you if you buy and sells stuff,
tariff sucks. It just does. Look if if his plan
is to fix the tariffs and move and even things out, okay,
but it still hurts a lot of companies. And you know,
basically you're you know, if you're selling light bulbs, and
light bulbs are on the boat, you gotta pay thirty percent.
It's thirty percent or whatever it is before they unload it.
(03:50):
So it's tough. The thing is the Chinese, I don't
think are gonna blink. Their culture is five thousand years old.
Their problem is the same problem we have. Sometimes are
he go like America, we have an ego and we
back it up. But the Chinese culture is five thousand
years old. They look down on all of us. That's
why they don't care. They caused the COVID pandemic. Yeah,
(04:12):
they don't care because they're they've been around for five
thousand dollars care.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
America's been here for five thousand to two years, and
we don't give up.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
I don't think they'll blink. They have millions in slave labor. Well,
they don't care. They're like, we can outlast you. So
I just think I hope they come out of this
thing because we need it fixed. But well they did
rap by the way they did rally, and this is
the difference you brought it up. So I'm gonna say
two thousand and eight was real Depression era stuff, savings
(04:44):
and loans, the car industry, real estate all collapsed at
the same time. It was. It was terrible. This is
a self induced sell off. But here's why we all
get frustrated a rich guy, because you don't if the
market's bad, rich guy wins. If the market's good, rich
guy wins. Because what happens the market dives seven thousand points.
(05:08):
What is rich guy you do? He gobbles in wow,
and then Rod's it back up in rich guy wins again.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Wait a minute, Wait a minute, are you telling me
that I should buy low and so high? Well, that's
just crazy. It's you know what it is, it's inexplicable.
Washington d c of course to Kentucky where it is.
I like to call us Florida Junior. Earlier this week,
James K. King was arrested by deputies in Kentucky, where
(05:38):
he was found walking naked around Highway thirty two eighty six.
He was approached by King was approached by deputies. He
was naked. They said, what are you doing? He said, well,
I'm going to get some pants. OFFICI will say that
good answer. Here's a shock. It's a very good answer.
It's a great answer, your pantser. This is going to
(05:59):
shock you. Hey, John Auden, I've put a hat right
in front of you. Okay, here we go, John, John
Anthony Venetti, I put a hat in front of you.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
I'm gonna need both of you to hold onto your hats.
Officials say the king was under the influence of a
controlled substance inexplicable, complicable.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Then he started kicking the patrol door without.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
That's always that's always good when you start kicking the
window or the car door of the squad card. But
that's always a good way to do it.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
But he's naked.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
The cops hated to, of course, because.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Now they got to go clean their cruiser out, like, uh, hey, hey, Jim,
how is your day? Got into a fight with a
naked drug addict covered in Uh? When you put I
want to ask Tuesday, do you want to ask Matt Sanders.
If you're listening, let us know. If an officer has
to lock somebody up and they got a mess on themselves,
(06:56):
is the officer responsible for cleaning up?
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Absolutely? Why That's why they argue which squad car there
going in? You're like, no, no, no, you transport him. The
other guy goes, no, no, no, no, you answered the call.
And here's the thing. Where has Matt Sanders been. Uh,
he's abandoned our show for months?
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Hey, listen, I'm not supposed to say. If you're listening
right now on your radio, don't listen for like ten seconds.
Matt Sanders is deep undercover. Really, yes, he's deep undercover,
and there's some narcotic ring, okay, and he's disguised right now.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
So what's his code name?
Speaker 2 (07:31):
His code name is Ding Dong. So listen, if you
know anything.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Doctor ding Dong here to deliver the drugs. Hang on,
let me taste it. First, pulls out a switch plate,
stabs the little heroin bag. He licks it a little bit.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
And then they go, I wonder where the drug dealers were,
and he reaches down the concrete, he feels the payment
and goes here.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Ten minutes ago, Oh, breaking news, John Stanning goes, I
just got an email from uh, you know what. I
think that's a lie. He says, I got an email
from Matt Sanders.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
No, no, no, no, Matt Sanders is deep undercover and we
don't know. We don't want to blow his cover.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
He's doctor ding Dong. Doctor, he's busting the drug rings
in Louisville. I hope you're happy that you've blown his cover.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
My wife has that DVD in her nightstand, Doctor ding Dong.
I didn't know it was a mystery movielaxplicable. Well. An
American tourist had a treat. This is a fun story.
I like this classic turning lemons into lemonade, because that's
what I am. John Auden, you know what I am?
Speaker 3 (08:38):
What are you?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I'm a glass half fool guy.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
He's a lemonade maker.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I'm a lemonade maker.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
An American tourist knowing only as Evan, got on a
boat to see the sightseeing tour of London.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Oh it sounds like fun.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
That's a fun. You have to see the big Yeah,

had gotten on the boat for sightseeing tour of London. Unfortunately,
he got on the wrong boat. Instead, he got on
a boat that was supposed to be It was a
party boat for a bunch of one hundred and fifty
die hard soccer fans.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Oh boy called the south Hooligans.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Listen to the name of this soccer Hoogan club, South
End United Football Club.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Oh boy.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Well, some of the fans noticed that Evan was sitting
quietly by himself. They walked over and asked, hey, are
you okay. He started explaining the situation. The soccer team
fans immediately adopted Evan as a new shrimper is a
shrimper like a.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
I don't know is that a soccer term? John, isn't

Speaker 3 (09:57):
I'm trying to use the old Google machine.

was the first one to put his foot down and
go we're not doing this anymore. It's a field any uniform,
and I went I with Peyton Manning.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Pitching a kid anyway. One hundred and fifty die hard
fans from the South End United football club in London

the new Shrimper. Feding beers even gave him a ticket
to the game, where fans started channing, Evan is this shripper?

Here sad news from earlier yet last weekend as they
canceled thunder over Louisville. But you know what one thing
that is going on downtown is you can't stop baseball.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Can't stop baseball.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Nothing can stop baseball. No, actually we're gonna we're still
having games at Slugger Field.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
At this point, my friend Meg Leonard sent me a
picture from yesterday's Businessman Special in front of the number
one to Quila CANTEENA and say, hey, look where I'm at.
And I was super jealous. As we bring in Greg
Galli at these afternoon games are quite fun.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Yeah, they are.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
And what's interesting is since we do kids run the
bases on Sunday afternoons after our games, we've now instituted
the senior stroll. Yeah, on Wednesdays, every Wednesday Seniors Day.
So we're letting our friends that are fifty five and
older coming out.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
He had to do it, he had he knew to
stab us in the heart. Fifty fifty five and older
senior strog.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
So Greg Gallyeah with the Bats joins us and I'll
tell you the Bats, pound for pound, you're the best.
When it comes to promotions, one of my favorite promotions
is coming up that I've ever heard of. But we're
gonna talk about Saturday first. Okay, first of all, I
want to talk about Kentucky Flood from Kentucky Team Kentucky
Flood Relief, because this is cool what you are doing.
Speaker 5 (17:22):
We are donating two dollars from every advanced ticket sale
for the entire week this week over to the Team
Kentucky Relief Fund. Nice trying to help his best. We can,
not only people here in the Louisville area, but also
people throughout the state. Frankfurt has been impacted dramatically, so
is Carrollton and other areas of our state, and we're
just trying to do our part to help out as
best we can. So again, we'll be donating two dollars
(17:44):
from every advance ticket sold throughout the week and that'll
go over to the Team Kentucky Relief Fund.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
So let's let's get the inside scoop. So how far
did it come in? What did it look like from
your from.
Speaker 5 (17:56):
Your Once I got notification on Saturday that there was
going to be no thunder. I had got in a
conversation with our head groundskeeper, Todd Schaeffer, and he was
in the process of putting up our floodwall right underneath
the concourse area in centerfield behind the batter's eye. We
can actually install a floodwall there, and we got into
(18:17):
a conversation. I said, I think we need to bring
in all the lawn equipment because they were expecting when
it crested basically last night, that our grounds keeping area
of the garage where it houses all our lawn equipment,
was going to get cut off whole stadium, which it did.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
And that's not cheap. Those are our cheap So we.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
Brought all the equipment inside the flood wall, which would
be right behind the center field fence that we would
need all week long to put on a game, as
far as mowing grass, lining the field, everything, dragging the
infield dirt. So all that equipment right now is stored
I mean right behind the center field fence.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
So obviously, and we went out and.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
Bought a big industrial sized pump with a baseball fire hose,
and we have a manhole cover right there behind the
centerfield fence because all the water was coming in from
Witherspoon and it would have gone on too our field.
But we opened up that humongous manhole cover, put the
pump right there next to it with a giant basically
fire hose size pump hose, and pump that water right
(19:12):
back out that was coming in from Witherspoon back out
over the fence onto Witherspoon. So we're just recycling it,
trying to keep it away from the field. So we
came very close to being effective. But it looks like
the worst is behind us.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Well, yesterday on the way in because sixty and I
still got this is the greatest promotion coming out. I
want to talk about this, but I gotta go sixty
five because sixty four shut down now because of the flood.
But I've noticed all the grounds crew out there and
the field looked immaculate.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
I mean, look, well, with the amount of rain we've
had and we certainly haven't had to water the field. Now,
the sunlight, I mean, it's it's very lush. Here's the
thing is, we're gonna be sitting here three months from now,
We're gonna be talking.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
About drought probably, Yeah, exactly, that's.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
Exactly what usually balances itself out.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
The faucet turns off and you're like, oh darn it,
here's my question. It's like, hey, let me know where
the flood gates are, just right, you know, where did
we put those?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Last time we used it was nineteen thirty four, mister Seasons.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Look behind the old scoreboard.
Speaker 5 (20:09):
What's interesting is we were looking at him marking right
underneath our windows on the second floor, on the outside
of the stadium on Preston Street side. There's a mark
there where the nineteen thirty seven flood was.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Right, So this is before the Army Corps.
Speaker 5 (20:22):
Of Engineers, before the new dams were built. So that's
how height it actually got back then, right, because we're
in a building that was built in the eighteen hundred.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Yes, so it didn't get to that point.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Okay, okay, all right, let's talk about We got baseball
that yeah.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
Yeah, we played yesterday afternoon. We're going to play tonight
and throughout the weekend.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
And then Saturday the game is on.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
Yeah, we're on. We're gonna play at two o five.
We're not going to have the concert. We're in the process.
I've had a conversation with the Crashers. I've spoken with
Major League Baseball. We were asking major League Baseball, since
they determine our schedule, please put us at home for
Thunder next year. The Crashers are certainly in for that.
So we're just going to try to roll everything over
to next year and do basically a big redo like
(21:01):
we did coming out of the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Okay, listen, if you have a dog at home, Oh
yeah you, Oh my gosh, you don't want to miss
this game. Yep, this is the coolest thing ever Friday Night.
Of course, you got six dollars number one Marguerite.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
Right, you got three dollars can Miller Light and Coors Light.
Thanks to our friends at iHeartMedia who are sponsoring our game.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Time Happy. But listen to this. If you got a dog,
it's dog night, and that's not good enough going out
and watching the best game in Louisville with your dog.
The first thousand are going to get a dog jersey.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
First thousand dogs that come in we'll get a louisvill
Bats dog jersey. We figured, you know, kids get jerseys
all the time, adults, why not take care of the
dogs one time. So the dogs are going to have
a very attractive dog jersey at Louivell Bats and they
can walk around town showing off their allegiance to the Bats.
And we're really excited. It's really attractive red jersey, and
(21:53):
I want to thank our friends that are at the
Cambria Hotel for making this possible. Proceeds from the dog's
tickets for Friday night will go straight back to the
Kentucky Humane Society. So again, that's Friday Night game time
seven to fifteen. Gates open at six, which means the
game time happy hour starts at six and it'll go
all the way until last call in the middle of
the eighth inn A.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Right, Well, where am I parking?
Speaker 5 (22:13):
You're gonna park basically anywhere you normally would accept north
of the stadium, which will be right down by the river.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Okay, so we have is obviously that's awfu.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Lit, that's been wet.
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Yeah, but the parking lot right across from us and
left field across from the Paul Horning statue, ye yea, yeah,
that's still open all right, and obviously on street parking
either on Main Street or towards as you go towards
Broadway in that Okay, I.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Want to talk about the greatest seats and the greatest bargain. Yeah,
in any sporting event there is. I'm talking about these
on deck seats that come with all you can eat
and all you can drink. And I'm talking to alcohol
to talk about this because i cannot wait to go.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
It's our on deck Club. We've taken the two best
rows in the stadium right behind home plate and converted
them into the theaters dial padded seats, so you're sitting
now closer to the batter than the picture is to
the batter so you'll hear some interesting things when you're
sitting there. You have weight service which will go and
get you concession items if you want to order those.
(23:13):
We have QR codes affixed to every seat so you
can order that. But you can also, like Dwight said,
walk right back up the tunnel there behind home plate.
We have a lounge set up in there with televisions
to keep up on the game, which also has a
buffet and again with all you can eat and all
you can drink beer and wine available for one price
includes your ticket, includes your parking, and it's one hundred
and ten dollars per person. We want to take the
(23:36):
NBA floor seats and bring that concept to Louisville Slugger Field.
And we think we've done it very well because folks
that have sat there already this year, I mean they've
had a great time. And word is spreading because I
was out the other night at a venue and folks
saw me and recognized the name and they wanted to
start talking about the on deck seats.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Yeah, of course, because not only is it, it's affordable.
It's amazing. It's super affordable when you talk.
Speaker 5 (24:00):
And you can do it as a small group so
you don't have to go sit in a suite. You
can actually get ten, twelve to fifteen people right now
until these seats sell out as far as season tickets possibly,
and you can actually bring your friends and everybody can
sit down there in these first two rows right behind
home play.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
It's aweseazing.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
It is awesome. Greg Kelli at go to bats Baseball
dot com, get your tickets in advance. If you do
do the advance, it'll be two dollars for this flood relief.
And there are games. If people are like everything, it
is not. Dwight's got a thing at the Gold House.
The Bats have.
Speaker 5 (24:32):
Something come visit us and visit our new team store
which has been totally remodeled. I need to go get
brand new gear, which Tony Finnetti will be inside when
you come. They'll be buying a brand new red Nike
Louisa Bats quartersip. Yes, so you'll see Tony there.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
They will.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
But the folks at Fanatics have basically taken over our
team store and have outfitted it with really cool Nike
under armour gear, all kinds of top quality merchandise and
a totally new facelift for the team store. So another
new feature at Louis Sliggerfield. What about the old logo
still available there? Redbird stuff? Redbird stuff is still there.
It's sold very well during that first homestand when we
(25:07):
played the Memphis Redbirds and we played as the Redbirds.
But our new secondary logo, which is a knockoff of
our old River Bats logo from the first couple of
years with the Flying Bat. If folks haven't had a
chance to see that, we've got that on merchandise, some
new gear right now. If you haven't seen the new
decorated windows we have along Main Street, We've taken three
(25:27):
of the large windows as you drive along the front
of the stadium. One window now is dedicated to Joey
Vado when he played for the Bats, the other windows
dedicated to Elie Dela Cruz, and the final one is
dedicated to the Bats in general, along with Buddy Batts.
So a lot of stuff going on.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
You've been around baseball a long time. Obviously, the collapse
in the Dominican Republic bar is hits all major League Baseball.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
These moments of Santogo Dotel was a hell of a
pitcher and just the people that lost their lives in
that situation is so bad. And yeah, I feel so
sorry for everybody it's involved.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yep, I know that there's that Dominican in Major League
base a connected forever, So I knew that would touch
a tone with you. All Right, folks, baseball is happening.
Get on downtown and let's get something going, because that's
what we really have to do. We have to turn
this around. Part of my notes tonight was like, what
do we do to help some of these vendors and
businesses that have lost this huge weekend of thunder that
(26:21):
is gone. Well, let's get out and let's get down
there and do something.
Speaker 5 (26:24):
And a reminder when we come back home off of
this next road trip. Saturday night, April twenty six is
Star Wars Night. Yes, so I know there's a lot
of folks that love that night, so put it on
your calendar.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Also, don't forget this Friday six dollars number one Margarita's
three dollars beers, and the first thousand people to bring
your dog in you get a dog jersey. That's awesome.
Greg Galliet, good to see him, he go.
Speaker 5 (26:48):
Great to see you guys, Thanks for having me.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Hey, speaking of dogs, is your dog over fifty pounds
as you can over ten pounds. If that's the case,
they could be a blood donor at Jefferson Animal Hospital. Yeah,
I said blood donor. Your dog your cat can get
blood and save lives just like we can't. It's true,
but man, it's in a big way. Every time your
dog or your cat gives blood, it doesn't just save
(27:10):
a life, it saves up to four to six lives
of other pets. Folks. That's huge. But there's also benefits
for you and your pet. You'll get regular examinations, you'll
get vaccines, and much much more. Now, let's find out
if your pet is a is available or capable to
be a blood donor, call five zero two nine hundred pets.
(27:31):
That's nine hundred pets. Or visit Jefferson Animal Hospital, Jefferson
Hospital on the outer.
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Loop wind Donation windonation dot com. Folks, you're sitting there
with your wife and you're like, man, I really would
like that discount of the heating and cooling bill for
the next two years, but I'm not sure we got
the budget to get new windows. Now, well, then the
wife's gonna go. I heard Tony and Tony Venetti on
the radio saying, and it's two years, no interest, no
(27:56):
payment down. Let's do that. Well, do that, no payment,
no interest, no payments for two years. Let's go nothing down.
You get your windows for two years and don't make
a payment, but you again get the benefit of it
because between twenty three and fifty percent of your electric
and heating bill and cooling bill will go down once
you get these new windows from wind Donation. By four
(28:20):
get four free. And we're talking any design, the bays,
the doubles, doesn't matter. Windonation dot com. It is a
local company backed by national strength, so it is a
