Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   Football is on!  We've got a few college games Saturday then Mizzou, KU and play next Thursday, Friday and Saturday.  In two weeks.... it's the NFL Opener between the Bills and Rams.

   And on 9/11... it's the Chiefs at Arizona and a crazy slate of incredible week on matchups.  We talk with Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com to get his thoughts on the AFC West, our area college teams and a couple free picks for you this Saturday.  Sports wagering is legal in Kansas on September 1 and Lee will be here to help you out.  Enjoy.

   Pure and simple, the college loan bailout is racist.  The overwhelming majority of this money will go to young, rich white people that live in cities and suburbs.  So I decided to call my congresswoman Sharice Davids to find out of she supports it.  I'll play the call for you.

   In California, they are planning a total ban on selling any new cars that burn gas.  How will that play out?

   Also, a Dem subcommittee is investigating Trump again..... this time for rushing the vax?  Wow.

   In sports, the Royals are going to win a ton of games when Brady Singer is the starting pitcher and Bobby Witt hits a homer.  They did it again Wednesday.

   The Tour Championship is this weekend on the PGA Tour, wrapping up their season with a whopping $18 million to the winner.....

   And Kobe Bryant's widow wins her lawsuit in California after first responder took photos of the crash scene and shared them.

   Len Dawson has died at the age of 87 and leaves a legacy in KC and around the country that is lasting for millions.

   Royals pitcher Jonathan Heasley pitched 4 2/3 scoreless innings Tuesday night while barfing three times on the mound.  We've got the full story of why this happens and how long it's been a problem.

    A letter to the editor makes us think about a new facet of the changes in the NCAA as it points out one area college tennis team doesn't have a single American player.  What's going on here?

   Joe Biden is set to forgive over $300 billion in student loans right before the election to get votes.  I've got seven different reasons this is a horrible idea.

   And Floridians went to the polls Tuesday and had elections for school boards.  Amazingly, they flipped 13 different large county boards from liberal to conservative control including Miami-Dade.  Miami is becoming the place every failing city should study to fix their problems.

   There's something really unusual going on in Miami as they are bucking trends of pretty much every big city in America.  How?  Well, they have a Republican mayor.  We have the scoop on this 44 year old rising star who's no Mayor Q, that's for sure. 

   Trump has filed a motion against the DOJ to stop the investigation and return his declassified documents.  It's in a Florida court with a Trump appointed judge.  He has to do it... but this just system is just an extension of two political parties now.

   New Royal Drew Waters was waiting on Door Dash Monday to bring his Chik fil A to the hotel when the Royals called and asked, "why aren't you hear at the stadium?"  What happened after that is just wild.

   A lot of Chiefs fans are concerned about the Chiefs defense this year and rightly so.  But how in the world could we judge it or compare it to teams in the NFC when the Chiefs face the quarterbacks and offenses on their schedule this year?

  Aqib Talib is out at Amazon and this has to be the final straw for his career after he started a fight at a kids football game that led to Talib's brother shooting and killing a coach.

   And a cheeky model named Kelly Kay has a crazy story of death, pregnancy and streaking at the Chiefs Super Bowl win.

   With all the hysteria over Tyreek Hill leaving the Chiefs, most people didn't notice the new additions to this receiving corps is now likely to make the Chiefs even better.  Patrick Mahomes has weapons everywhere.

   Some SEC fans let their voices be heard this week about CBS Sports producing a promotional video designed to hype the Big Ten.

   A pair of new polls this weekend reflect that Americans in both parties of all races and genders understand Joe Biden is failing miserably.

   The Kansas City Federal Reserve has a major economic symposium this week.... in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.  What about our fragile planet?

   And a school district in Wisconsin has banned political and religious signs in the classroom and around the schools.  This is a great policy they've adopted.

   So we're going to get to see a redacted version of the Trump raid affidavit, maybe in a week.  Everything will go slow and get tied up on this thing as the deep state attempts to normalize this ridiculous raid.

   CNN has fired it's longest running host as the changes keep coming.

  Patrick Mahomes is glad camp is over so he can go score a TD at Arrowhead and visit his favorite barber shop.

   Sports wagering starts in Kansas on September 1, we'll list a few of the different ways you can play.

   And 83 year old Dick Vitale is cancer free.  While we aren't perfect, its pretty amazing how many success stories we have with cancer patients.

   You'll have to excuse me for having too much fun on this episode as we've learned we have more subscribers than the KC Star.  This will make your day.

   The Chiefs are changing more than we know this year and some of it is hidden in some changes to defensive strategy.  While everyone has copied the Chiefs, KC is moving on to reinvent. 

   The director of the CDC admits they blew it during Covid and Rand Paul gives a great explanation why.

   The first series of polls since the Trump raid are out and it's all good news for the GOP.

   And who called Liz Cheney after she got clobbered?  Joe Biden.  It's easy to see what's going on here.

   Mayor Q, like any good politician, can't stay out of the news.  But this week, I think he wishes he could as he's got fires to put out everywhere.

   Liz Cheney had a bad day Tuesday and is out of Congress.  Trump is, one by one, waving goodbye to his Republican turncoats and it's glorious.

   The Chiefs defense had a horrible practice after their first pre season game... and it was effort that has the coaches fuming.  Not good.

  Elon Musk says he's buying Manchester United,  a Little League World Series player is badly hurt in a horrible accident in his room and a White Marlin off the coast of Maryland is worth a whopping $4.4 million.

   The feds grabbed Trump's passports, attorney client privilege documents and picture books that could be against the law if they didn't specifically go in for them.  We take a look at the 4th Amendment and our protections against tyranny... and I'll tell you what I really think is going on here.

   Today's the day Liz Cheney gets voted out of office in Wyoming.   George W. Bush and Karl Rove gave her $1million but she's still down 57 points in the latest poll and she joins a growing list of anti-Trumpers run out of office.  It could wind up being all ten of ten.

   Andy Reid says of the Chiefs defense "we have to get better" and his recent moves saying goodbye to veterans in the secondary signal how serious he is.

   Amazon tells advertisers they expect much lower ratings for Thursday Night Football than Fox.  But I still think it's worse than they say.

  Also, a monkey steals the show at a California zoo and one NBA star has a great idea for how Kevin Durant can force a trade.  You'll love it.

   If you didn't schedule your Saturday afternoon around a Chiefs pre season game, I've got the only takeaways you need as Patrick Mahomes was flawless and a handful of other players make some noise.

   The Royals faced the Dodgers Sunday, a team on a 12 game win streak with a starter going that was 13-1.  Now he's 13-2 because Brady Singer was even better.  This game was a big deal.

  National sites are making fun of my high school, Shawnee Mission North, for spending almost $5 million of taxpayer money on a weight room.  This is insane.

  Donald Trump says he has a "standing order" on all documents in his possession at his residence and the government is holding privileged documents and he wants them back asap.  

  Climate freaks attack golf courses and we'll introduce you to www.campvaloroutdoors.org 

   It took a few days but Donald J. Trump has taken off the gloves and fired back in a big way.  At the same time, Attorney General Merrick Garland is starting to look like a fall guy for Joe Biden.

   The Chiefs and Bears do battle Saturday to start the pre-season and quarterback Patrick Mahomes says he wants to get hit.

   Your emails about the Zambezi Zinger coaster at Worlds of Fun just blew my mind.  Two updates will make your day.

   Also, the Royals are rolling, Danny Clinkscale has a new tv show and Antonio Brown's tweet is the greatest thing ever.

   Iconic KC radio station WHB celebrates 100 years on the air Thursday night at the Midland Theater with on air hosts, callers, athletes, coaches and dignitaries in attendance... it's a big deal.  This legendary station celebrates an incredible history from it's humble beginnings in 1922 to basically inventing the the Top 40 format and then becoming a Sports Radio phenomenon in the early 2000's.  While it's not what it used to be, WHB should be celebrated.  They asked me to do a video interview instead of having us  (Jessica was an original and 23 year employee)  appear in person and I'll play some of the audio for you. 

   Royals rookies are putting on a show as the team is fun to watch again.  Is it for real or just a flashy burst?

   A gay race car driver is competing in the NHRA event in Topeka this week and the media are making him out to be Jackie Robinson.  He most certainly is not.

  And the all new Zambezi Zinger returns to Worlds of Fun next year, 50 years after the original was built.

   It's not enough for the FBI to raid Trump's house, now they are getting warrants to take phones from his allies.  Congressman Scott Perry was stopped by the FBI on vacation and took his phone from him right in front of his family.

   Elon Musk is moving forward to buy Twitter and has sold almost $7 billion in Tesla stock to make it happen.

   A longtime sports writer in KC announces on social media they are switching genders just in time to receive an award.

   Patrick Mahomes says the Chiefs will be "a lot different" this year and that's a good thing.  MU at KSU is just three weeks away... one poll has the Cats as big faves and we can all learn a lesson from a little league player in Oklahoma who lost a game but won big.

   We lost a piece of a great America Monday when the Dems in charge of everything sent the FBI to raid Donald Trump's house in Florida.  You know what this is all about as they are terrified what he will do to dismantle the Deep State if elected again.

    It's so scummy as the DOJ presumably got ahold of classified documents in the raid while they are defending a lawsuit demanding the DOJ to release documents Trump declassified concerning the Russia Hoax.  This is going to be a wild battle.

   And is there a chance Trump baited them into this?  He's told them he has documents and they are welcome to come see them or get a court order and will turn them over.  If reports are true, the safe the FBI cracked was empty.  Empty as in not a single item in it and it's reportedly fairly new.  That sounds like a prank to me.

   The Senate passed the Inflation Reduction Act, the single most misleading name for a bill I've ever seen. It's all environmental stuff and a doubling of the IRS and it will undoubtedly lead to more inflation.

    Dem mayors like New York's Eric Adams are fed up with busloads of illegal migrants being unloaded in their cities.  So why not send even more?

   The Chiefs have a new safety, Justin Reid, to replace the Honey Badger and Reid has a special skill he showed off Sunday wowing the crowd with a 60 yard kick.

   OU assistant football coach Cale Gundy resigned for reading a word off a player's IPad.  This is a bizarre story, you'll want to hear the details.

   And the Royals had 12 RBI's Sunday... all 12 by rookie hitters.

   The Senate passed the Inflation Reduction Act, the single most misleading name for a bill I've ever seen.  It's all environmental stuff and a doubling of the IRS and it will undoubtedly lead to more inflation.

   Dem mayors like New York's Eric Adams are fed up with busses of illegal migrants being unloaded in their cities.  So why not send even more?

   The Chiefs have a new safety, Justin Reid, to replace the Honey Badger and Reid has a special skill he showed off Sunday wowing the crowd with a 60 yard kick.

  OU assistant football coach Cale Gundy resigned Sunday for reading a word off a player's Ipad.  This is a bizarre story, you'll want to hear the details.

   And the Royals had 12 RBI's Sunday.... all 12 by rookie hitters.  

The Chiefs are in St. Joseph for training camp, and the AFC west is loaded with talent, especially at Quarterback. Stan Weber joins to discuss the difficult task the Chiefs have ahead of them and their path to getting back to the Super Bowl. The Pac 12 is fighting to hold the conference together, which could lead to some additions to the Big 12.

   Baseball is in quite a transition, especially in KC.  With teams like the Yankees now worth over $7 billion, it's obvious the Royals have to play catch up now with most other teams.  A new downtown ballpark will be a big step as the game changes toward pitch clocks and automated strike zones.

  Ryan Lefebvre joins us to talk about the future of the game, and our favorite team, in a rapidly changing landscape. 

  Ryan also shares some thoughts about Buck O'Neil being inducted into the hall of fame.

   Unofficially, it appears an incredible 180,000 people voted on the abortion amendment and NOTHING else on the ballot in Kansas.  Almost 90% of those were NO votes.  Don't be discouraged, GOP turnout was sensational although many voted NO.  This is democracy and it's clear Kansans thought this was about a total ban and very few want that.

   GOP turnout was nuts in Missouri as well and Eric Schmitt just rolls the field of Senate candidates.  We'll go over winners on both sides of the state line and take a peek at Arizona which had insane GOP turnout as well.

   You can't make up the Whit Merrifield story with the Royals the last three weeks... he gets traded to Toronto.  We have details and commentary about the Royals trade deadline moves.

  Eric Hosmer goes to the Red Sox, the Denver Broncos lose two offensive playmakers to season ending injuries and the great Vin Scully dies at the age of 94. 

   It's primary day in Missouri and Kansas with two votes stealing all the headlines.  There's drama in Kansas and a Trump effect in Missouri.  We analyze both.

   The Al Qaeda leader the U.S. killed over the weekend apparently wasn't all that smart.  Living in his "lockdown" safe house that he could never leave, he developed  a stupid habit of hanging out on his deck.  That's how we killed him and hurt nobody else.  What a fool.

   A new restaurant in a Texas town that voted 81% for Trump is open and simply called Trump Burger.  And business is good.

   The media reaction to Patrick Mahomes walking to the sideline with a "possible" ankle injury Monday was hilarious.  Was he trolling the media?

   And the NCAA has circled back and wants more flesh out of Louisville basketball and former coach Rick Pitino for his work with the same Adidas reps as KU.  It proves once again that KU has been an example for every school how to fight the NCAA and drag it out as long as you can.

   The annual list of team valuations has been released for all sports teams and the top franchise is worth a whopping $7.6 billion.  We'll tell you what team that is... and how are the Chiefs valued below the NFL average of $4 billion at $3.5?

  Defensive end Frank Clark met with media this weekend and basically said he wasn't very serious last year but has changed his ways including giving up booze.  Also, tackle Orlando Brown is expected to report to camp Monday.

  Salvador Perez is healthy and back on the field and hit a couple 3 run homers at Yankee Stadium this weekend.  The latest was a 9th inning game winner on Sunday.

   Young voters are turning on Joe Biden in a huge way, the IRS is getting 87,000 new agents and Los Angeles is allowing illegal aliens to take government jobs.

   While Joe Biden is destroying our economy and crushing millions of Americans with inflation and more spending, Donald Trump is rubbing elbows in all his glory promoting the new LIV Golf League.  What a contrast in style... and substance.

   Patrick Mahomes is opening up to talk about loser quarterbacks like Kyler Murray and DeShaun Watson making more money than him... and his answers may surprise you.

   Royals pitcher Brady Singer was so good against the Yankees Thursday night, he joined a short list of historic figures.  Of course, the Royals still found a way to lose.

   And as the Kansas "Value Them Both" vote nears, we've seen pro abortion freaks all over Kansas running wild stealing signs, spray painting walls and threatening violence.  One homeowner in Overland Park has been repeatedly targeted for his "YES" signs and he's a true inspiration and model for how to deal with these crazy people.  Joel Richardson is here to tell his story of securing, video taping and tracking the thieves on his lawn.

   Mizzou coach Eliah Drinkwitz, on the Jim Rome Radio Show, just lights up the Tennessee football program after the NCAA hit the Vols with 18 level one violations.  I've got the audio.

   The Royals have traded free agent to be outfielder Andrew Benintendi to the Yankees who don't seemed to be bothered the outfielder hasn't taken the shot.  Did that come to an agreement or do the Yankees not care?

   College football power brokers are indicating an expanded playoff is in the works.  The Big Ten's stance: Anything but four teams is fine with them.

   The GDP officially dropped this quarter, we are in a recession.  Josh Hawley slaps down a reporter and one congressman says he's spent more time than anyone on earth with Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump and DeSantis isn't going to challenge the former President.

   Two new polls are showing $10 million worth of attack ads are sinking Eric Greitens in his run for Missouri Senate.  We have the latest on who's pulling away with it.

   Housing starts are their lowest in 2.5 years and mortgage applications are their lowest in 22 years.  They wanted to slow the economy?  They're doing it. 

   A defensive coach anonymously insults Patrick Mahomes by saying one key thing in his game leads to Chiefs losses.

   Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has apologized for using the word "midget."  Is this our next banned word?

   And Mega Millions is now over $1 Billion with no winner in the last drawing.

   Joe Biden has told America, "we're not going to be in a recession," and nobody believes him.  Trending on social, then, is a new term called Bidenpression.  Would he like that better?

   In Japan, a Navy officer that had a seizure behind the wheel leading to two deaths is sentenced to three years in jail.  This was an unavoidable accident by a man dedicating his life to protecting the people of Japan.  This is an outrageous story from an ally country that clearly doesn't respect us anymore.

   We have two new Missouri Senate polls that indicated two different front runners.

   Patrick Mahomes says his foot work has been sloppy and it's the main focus of what he's working on while Zack Greinke climbs a list to a huge milestone in the Royals win Monday night.

   Bill Self has been suspended from recruiting duties by the University of Kansas according to a report by Matt Norlander at www.cbssports.com  What this all means as the NCAA completes it's investigation into five Level One violations is the unknown. 

   Buck O'Neil is finally in the baseball Hall of Fame and I'll share with you what impressed me most about one of the finest men I've ever met.

   Chiefs camp is underway in St. Joseph and a young corner that was delivering pizzas two years ago should serve as an inspiration to all of us.

   The Biden administration is not allowing anyone to use the term "recession" and of course their cohorts in the media line right up.  They literally are saying there is no "official definition" of a recession and because they are so smart we should believe them when they say it's not happening.

   And Spurs coach Gregg Popovich delivers the ultimate America Sucks speech at a Jay-Z event in New York despite the fact that all of Pop's favorite people are in charge of everything right now.  Amazing.

  We've got topic after topic on this episode starting with a US Congressman running for Governor being attacked by a man with a knife who jumped on stage in front of a crowd being released hours later.  It's no wonder nobody is afraid of the law.

   Why are officials in Johnson County, KS going over the top out of their way to convince everyone the elections there are secure?  Seems too defensive.

   Chiefs camp opens just as the vote YES campaign for a Constitutional Amendment in Kansas releases an ad with star kicker Harrison Butker telling everyone, "Let Kansans Decide."  Amen.

   Former Jayhawk Andrew Wiggins has regret for taking the Covid jab and he's not holding back with his comments, SEC Media Days had some interesting questions from reporters and we share your ideas for great hot dogs in KC.

   Joe Biden now says he has cancer... and nobody believes him.  In just a year and a half, this man has reduced the office of the presidency to a laughingstock and is showing us that anyone can be president.

   Missouri Senate polling in the Republican Primary is all over the map but polling of how each candidate will do in November is enlightening.  We have the numbers.

   The buzz around the Big 12 is Arizona and Colorado have indicated they are in.  Now the Big 12 will try to get Oregon and Washington committed before deciding anything on ASU and Utah.

   The ESPY's did their best to portray women athletes as being oppressed and a listener has written the email of the year... it's about the Royals Ten and you're going to love it.

   There's been plenty of fake outrage from left wing sports types about the horror of 10 Royals not taking the jab.  The latest is a bold headline saying Whit Merrifield needs to go only to read butter soft copy where the writer says he likes him and believes what he says.  Huh?

   Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh is pretty much nobody's favorite but he could be now. The coach is speaking to pro life groups and getting drilled for it.  At the same time, AOC is doing Instagram publicity stunts over abortion and being praised a hero.  Wow, we are lost.

   32 year old Daniel Vasquez was killed on the job Tuesday after he stopped a car over and expired tag issue.  This story is just tragic and a strong reminder why we should never tolerate or promote anti police uprisings around the country.

   And it's National Hot Dog Day and I'll have mine with chili and cheese.  You?  We ask you to tell us where the best dogs are.

   There's been plenty of fake outrage and whining from leftists in sports media concerning the Royals ten players that haven't taken a jab and now the Star wants the Royals to trade Whit Merrifield.  But they won't critically attack him and call him stupid, uninformed, dangerous and awful.  No, the latest piece on him is the writer likes him, always has and believes everything he says.  Hammer him or shut up.  You've lost the argument.

   Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh is pretty much nobody's favorite but it's largely because he always says and does what he wants.  Now his speaking to pro life groups and getting hammered for it.  At the same time, AOC is doing Instagram publicity stunts faking like she's wearing handcuffs and being praised.  Wow, are we lost.

   32 year old Daniel Vasquez was killed on the job in NKC Tuesday after he stopped a car over an expired tags issue.  This story is just tragic and a reminder why we should never tolerate or promote anti police uprisings around the country.

   And it's National Hot Dog day and I like mine with chili and cheese.  We ask you where the best dogs are in KC.

   The Biden administration is taking a victory lap as gas prices have dropped 50 cents in a month even though nobody has a clear reason why.  So I'll take a stab at a hunch that I have.

   Late night liberal Stephen Colbert presides over a staff of 9 employees that were arrested for trespassing in the Congressional office building.  And what do you know... he DOJ says they won't prosecute any of them.

   Golf announcer David Feherty is reportedly leaving NBC to go work for the new LIV Golf League and he may be paired with Charles Barkley.  Of course, they need to secure a tv partner but it appears that's close.

   The All Stars are ready to shine in LA Tuesday night and I'm rooting for a tie.  The tiebreaker could be epic, wait until you hear this.

   And a father and son shared a very special first pitch together in New York on Sunday.  This is a story that will make you smile.

   Is it possible in sports to watch absolute greatness and find it boring?  I'll answer that question emphatically with a YES and explain why the 150th Open Championship fell flat.

   The Royals season has been flat from the start and now they are 20 games under .500 at the All Star Break.  If the Royals were just a below average team they'd still be alive in their division... what a shame.

   There's an announcement coming Wednesday about a  Sportsbook opening at Hollywood Casino and the smart money says it will be affiliated with Barstool Sports.  This is going to be really cool.

    And thank goodness for good guys with guns.  This weekend a mall shooter in Indianapolis and a would be robber in St. Louis were shot dead by legally armed citizens.  Way to go good guys!

    With media bigotry running wild against anyone in America that hasn't taken the covid jab or anyone who is upset they had to for their employer, has anyone noticed these sports league publicly forcing information about people seems to be a violation of our rights under law?

   We know this... everyone in Canada with the Royals has taken the shot.  Is that fair for us to know?  And how many players took it but didn't want to?  This is a great conversation with the lead broadcaster for the team, Ryan Lefebvre.

   Ryan also chats with us about the new players this weekend and the second half outlook after the All Star break.

   This is the greatest story ever watching 10 Royals and three staffers sit out a series in Toronto because they don't want to take a shot that doesn't work to enter a country that doesn't want them.  They've broken no laws yet the bigots in the media believe it's ok to have blatant bias against their fellow citizens that have differing views.  How un American as we've been told to be tolerant and inclusive of others.  But not in this case. 

   A local columnist, behind a paywall where nobody can read it, has written a softly critical column "not here to demonize," laments that he'd like to talk to Whit Merrifield and the others but can't because he has Covid.  The writer is fully vaxxed and boosted.  You CANNOT make this stuff up. 

  And the Royals unknowns go out and beat Toronto anyway... 3-1 behind a Bobby Witt Jr. home run and some guy named Nate Eaton going yard.  

   Ten Royals players that have never taken a Covid 2019 shot are now ineligible to play in 2022.  That's a lot of time that's passed and these players have been proven to be just fine with their choices just as people that have taken shots are just fine.  These men stand tall in their conviction and they are heroes in my eyes.  And so is an organization that promotes individual freedoms!  Well done Royals.

   So the KC sports media, the same people that said players would die if they kept playing, surely will hammer away on these individuals and this team for being murderous thugs that don't care about others, right?  No.  You won't hear a peep from all the people that were wrong.

  A Swiss Tea Room in Overland Park doesn't want your business if you don't want to kill babies.  Employees are wearing "NO" stickers and buttons and you get free stuff if you walk in and tell them you're pro abortion.  You won't believe the snooty family behind all this... more rich, white elitists.

   Now that all the rich, white, college grads are voting for Dems, they are changing the rules of what we call white voters.  In the latest racist Dem move, they're calling their most important voting block "upscale voters" now.... could they be more shallow?

   The NBA is looking to lower the playing age to 18 and Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy just flat out owned Big 12 media days saying all the good stuff out loud.  We have it for you.

   If you listen to this podcast, you probably fear the worst for America if the leftists ever take over.  It could mean a change in the Supreme Court, obliteration of the Constitution and one party rule.

   Gib Kerr has been in business and commercial real estate for decades and has been involved in many civic projects.  But when Gib felt what so many conservatives are feeling, he decided to do something about it.

   Kerr wrote and just released  a novel about what flyover states could do if and when the AOC wing takes over America.  It's called "States of Rebellion" and it's available at Amazon and www.BarnesandNoble.com. 

   We also chat with Kerr about the pathway to a new downtown ballpark for the Royals in a KKHI conversation with a first time novelist.  

   Hard to believe... but it's getting worse.  Inflation has now hit a staggering 9.1% and most of us believe it's actually worse than that.  Biden's answer is to  fly off to the Middle East and stumble around with leaders fist bumping them, maskless, because of Covid.  Oh ya, he also hugs them and then shakes their hand while speaking with them face to face 8 inches apart.  We explain what his latest charade is all about.

   The audio of Missouri Senator Josh Hawley questioning a young professor about men having babies is priceless... we have it for you.

   The 150th Open Championship at St. Andrews begins Thursday.  Tiger Woods has harsh comments for some fellow competitors while Jack Nicklaus is awarded an honor only two other Americans have ever received.  You won't believe who the other two are.  And Danny Clinkscale shares with us his favorites for the tourney.

   And LeBron James asks why Brittney Griner, who's being held in Russia, would even want to come home.  I've got a solution if LeBron is frustrated with Joe Biden... why doesn't he broker the deal through his connections in China?

   The Royals have won 4 of 5 after taking a double header Monday and plenty of players have been chipping in.  But Bobby Witt's 6 hit day has us all dreaming of what may come one day.  This kid is a star.

   A lot of people have been choosing sides between the new LIV Golf League and the PGA Tour.... including the Department of Justice.  The DOJ is now looking into the PGA Tour for perhaps breaking anti trust laws.

   Kevin McCarthy and the house GOP are already prepping for Investigations into the Biden family's business dealings and several other issues.  We've got info from a report that got a copy of an email describing seminars called, "Investigations 101" for all GOP House members to prep for gaining the majority.

   And Jill Biden, in Texas, goes all Joe Biden.  She compared Hispanic voters to Mexican food... oh boy, you gotta hear this.

   Donald Trump hasn't given a full endorsement to a Missouri Senate candidate yet which, according to polls, is a three way dead heat.  But Trump did tell Missouri voters this weekend to "forget" Vicky Hartzler.  This one is going to be wild.

   AOC was thrilled some crazy people stormed into a restaurant where SCOTUS justice Brett Kavanaugh was dining, forcing him to evacuate.  How is this conduct even remotely legal?  We have real laws that are being broken and lawmakers are cheering it on?

   Nike CEO Phil Knight was once considered the most powerful man in sports but now, in a new piece written by Dennis Dodd at CBS, Knight has been reduced to a cold calling telemarketer.  Knight is trying to negotiate the University of Oregon into the Big 10 or SEC and it isn't going well for him.

   If Oregon and Washington want in the Big 12, that league is headed for 18 schools and a new, 6 team division for KU and K-State.

   And Tyreek Hill, before playing a game, has become that spokesperson for the Miami Dolphins as he's made headline by talking about his quarterback.

   The story of the convenience store clerk in New York that has been arrested for murder is the very best and the very worst of America all in one as self defense is under attack from the left.

   In Japan, former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been assassinated in broad daylight at a campaign rally in a country that has almost no guns.  This is shocking to many.

   We'll go over the latest in college athletics realignment and did you know there's a wonderful program in KC that features several sports for all ages of kids that are home schooled?  With so many more parents taking education in house, this organization is vital for the development for some young athletes. 

   It's over!  Anthony Fauci has quietly informed Senator Ernst from Iowa and the White Coat Waste project that the NIH will stop using Beagle puppies for inhumane research not related to animal health.   They're going back to using lab mice.  What a win!

   There's a problem in yards all over the state of Kansas as www.tonyskansascity.com reports vandalism and sign stealing over the Value them Both Amendment has gotten out of control.

   With so many positive stories leaking about the future of the Big 12 it most certainly feels like incoming commissioner Brett Yormark is making a difference already.

   And how much lower can you go than talk show host Dan LeBatard?  This man is actually bashing a rival member of the media that died.  wow.

   Nancy Pelosi pushed new Congresswoman Mayra Flores' daughter at a photo op, treating the little girl like a dog.  This move says it all.
