I hope 17 00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:52.880 the worry of me not being here because of Jerry 18 00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:56.439 duty didn't impact your day. Because I'm here and I 19 00:00:56.439 --> 00:00:57.840 still don't know if I'm going to be needed to 20 00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:02.439 serve as a jury. But I did not get dismissed. 21 00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:05.920 In fact, John, I uh, I I was. I mean, 22 00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:09.159 I walked in, couldn't find a place to park, by 23 00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:11.760 the way. A ton of people there, humongous pool of 24 00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:15.040 jurors that you know, potentially will be asked to be 25 00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:17.599 on a jury or maybe not being needed at all. 26 00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:21.359 But once they kind of talked us through called role, 27 00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:23.359 I did feel like I was in school again because 28 00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:26.719 they quite literally have everybody sitting around and they meant 29 00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:30.040 they say your juror number juror number four seventy two 30 00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:32.799 by the way, uh, and then they say your name 31 00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:34.760 and you have to say, here, I haven't done that, 32 00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:37.480 and I can't tell you how long, you know, probably 33 00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:40.480 since I mean, I don't even know they really even 34 00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:42.439 they didn't call role in high school, did they? 35 00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:44.519 Like, there were certain teachers that did. 36 00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:46.879 But I think the further we've gotten into, you know, 37 00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:49.599 with newer technology and stuff like that, the less necessary 38 00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:50.680 it is to do role like that. 39 00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:53.200 Yeah, I think even like the technically, I don't know, 40 00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:57.480 I guess when you like, was role call something that 41 00:01:57.599 --> 00:01:59.519 was only done like when you start school, like the 42 00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:02.599 first of the year kind of stuff, because I guess, 43 00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:03.920 I don't know. When you're in elementary school you have 44 00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:06.079 like assigned seats, like where you sit at your desk, 45 00:02:06.120 --> 00:02:07.560 and then they just noticed that you're not there. 46 00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:09.159 But anyways, you know. 47 00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:12.479 They explained what the process was, and I needed to 48 00:02:12.479 --> 00:02:14.280 hear every word because I had no clue how any 49 00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:16.520 of this works now I know. And then they had 50 00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:19.919 they had you come up if you were not someone 51 00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:22.879 that was going to be disqualified because of like you 52 00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:25.080 slipped through the cracks, right they they called you, but 53 00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:29.039 you got a felony or that you you don't live 54 00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:33.599 actually in Bullet County and you like your address was 55 00:02:33.639 --> 00:02:35.280 still there. So like that was one of the things 56 00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:37.080 that was kind of weird, Like if you've moved but 57 00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:39.120 haven't changed your address legally, which a lot of people 58 00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:39.919 don't do that immediately. 59 00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:40.960 Some people wait to do it. 60 00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:43.120 Like there were people that actually no longer lived in 61 00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:45.960 Bullet County but knew that if if they didn't, you know, 62 00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:47.800 if they didn't show up, then there would be a 63 00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:50.400 summons for them. So they said, if you feel like 64 00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:53.000 you might need to be excused or you have like 65 00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:55.360 some people brought like letters from their employer that they're 66 00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:58.319 the sole provider and like, and they that's why they 67 00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:01.560 call so many people, because you know, eventually they'll, you know, 68 00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:03.680 they'll they'll they'll get out who can't do it or 69 00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:06.080 who doesn't qualify, and then they'll have you know, they'll 70 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:08.520 still have enough people. So I've gotten that line. And 71 00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:10.199 I kind of felt like, man, I don't know what 72 00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:12.319 they're gonna say. I'm waiting to go see the judge. 73 00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:13.879 I've never seen a judge in my life before. But 74 00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:16.240 I'm waiting in line to walk up, and it's like 75 00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:18.199 the courtroom. It's not you know, it's not like it's 76 00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:20.159 in some office. It's you know, he's sitting there in 77 00:03:21.479 --> 00:03:25.120 whatever you call that thing, the approach, the stand or 78 00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:26.280 is it the bench, I don't know what it is. 79 00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:27.840 I almost call it the sanctuary. 80 00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:30.039 Yeah that's not so so anyways, I walk up there 81 00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:31.639 and I was like, I'm not sure if I if 82 00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:33.599 I'm disqualified or if this matters at all. 83 00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:36.840 But and man, there's no like I don't know why. 84 00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:40.120 But like it's always weird, like telling people what I 85 00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:45.360 do because maybe there's like a sliver of hope that 86 00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:46.439 they would think that's cool. 87 00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:49.400 I don't know. I used to like anytime I'm like, yeah, 88 00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:50.280 I'm a radio. 89 00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:52.879 Host, like I feel like I'm coming off as if like, yeah, 90 00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:54.800 I'm a big deal, and I never want that to be. 91 00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:57.120 I mean, hex before too long, people might say, you know, 92 00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:00.360 what's the radio? I mean you never know, Like technologylogy 93 00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:03.000 changes over time that kind of stuff. But anyways, I 94 00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:05.280 just said, I'm not sure if my position on my 95 00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:08.120 platform that I have you know, if if if if 96 00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:11.240 that's something that would that would make me not you know, 97 00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:13.159 make you make you not want to have me a 98 00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:15.000 part of this. But I just wanted to make that clear. 99 00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:17.360 And because my worry was that I would go through 100 00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:20.680 all of this, I would have like arrangements made, I 101 00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:23.040 would meaning like to where I couldn't be here or something, 102 00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:26.800 and then when I actually I would have to serve 103 00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:29.360 on the jury, they would find out and tell me, oh, yeah, 104 00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:31.160 you can't do this because so I just didn't know. 105 00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:34.160 But you know, the judge was pretty clear like yeah, 106 00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:36.199 I mean as long as as long as you know, 107 00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:40.240 as long as it's not going to like put you out, 108 00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:42.079 then you know, I don't And I was like, okay, 109 00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:44.959 well go sit down and I'll wait. So, uh, it's 110 00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.000 such a process and there's still a chance that like 111 00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:49.399 I may never actually go back, you know what I mean. 112 00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:53.360 Just you just don't know. But I learned a lot 113 00:04:53.480 --> 00:04:56.279 I can. I can certainly tell you that. And of 114 00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:58.680 the hundreds of us there, I think there were over 115 00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:02.519 two hundred people there. There were twelve that were called 116 00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:04.959 to be on the grand jury, and that is and 117 00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:07.839 again I'm I thought I knew what that was, and 118 00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:09.560 I was I think I was right, But like, these 119 00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:13.560 are people who are essentially deciding if someone is going 120 00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:15.720 to have like charges brought on them, right like they're 121 00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:19.319 gonna be indicted or whatever. And they did mention that's 122 00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:22.439 a little bit of a different process, and he said 123 00:05:22.480 --> 00:05:24.920 that you know this, there'll be you know, you will 124 00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:27.959 have a little bit more. We're gonna basically in some 125 00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:29.879 form of fashion, he kind of indicated they're gonna need 126 00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:31.720 you a little more than they're gonna needybody else. So 127 00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:33.040 I didn't want to be called for that, and I 128 00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:35.600 was not. And then as soon as those twelve people 129 00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:38.519 that were called for the grand jury left the courtroom 130 00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:41.600 to go with somebody who was employed at the courthouse 131 00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:43.600 to kind of, I guess, you know, explain a little 132 00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:45.120 further as far as what they're going to have to do, 133 00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:48.319 that he did say, yeah, now I can say it, 134 00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:49.879 that's probably what you don't want to do because that 135 00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:52.600 apparently that's like that's going to be an all day 136 00:05:52.639 --> 00:05:55.199 thing for everybody, like whenever, whenever that that happens. And 137 00:05:56.759 --> 00:05:58.920 there's a lot of criminal cases obviously that like don't 138 00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:01.519 go to trial because people you know, they take a 139 00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:04.480 plea and and you know there's no trial needed, no jury. 140 00:06:04.519 --> 00:06:07.959 So with the with with being on the grand jury, 141 00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:10.759 like that's that's that's like an everyday thing, right, Like 142 00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:12.480 the grand jury is going to decide are they gonna 143 00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:14.439 is somebody gonna be you know, held account of is 144 00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:16.480 somebody gonna be in trouble or not. So I was 145 00:06:16.519 --> 00:06:18.360 happy for for to not be a part of that. 146 00:06:18.439 --> 00:06:19.639 And now I just have to wait. I got to 147 00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:23.480 call a number and figure out if if I if 148 00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:26.720 my number is on the you know, I guess the 149 00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:27.560 list of. 150 00:06:27.439 --> 00:06:28.519 Those that are going to be needed. 151 00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:31.319 So I still really don't know how it's gonna impact 152 00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:33.240 me over the next h and by the way, it's 153 00:06:33.240 --> 00:06:35.720 for the next three months October, November, December. I am 154 00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:38.560 in this pool of people that could potentially be needed. 155 00:06:38.720 --> 00:06:40.879 Uh and uh, A lot of things don't end up 156 00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:45.519 going to trial, it sounds like. And the judge was 157 00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:47.160 pretty direct, and I'm glad he did say this that 158 00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:50.680 like there's there's often times where you think you're gonna 159 00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:52.680 have a jury trial and then sure enough, day of 160 00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:56.240 the plea is entered and there's not one needed. So 161 00:06:56.639 --> 00:07:00.000 I still don't know, uh, but I guess we guess 162 00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:00.639 you shall see. 163 00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:03.680 So how does is the grand jury thing completely random? 164 00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:05.319 Like could you could you have gone into that or 165 00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:06.680 do you have to have a certain qualification? 166 00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:07.079 No? 167 00:07:07.079 --> 00:07:09.560 No, it's of all the people that you know, of 168 00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:11.920 the two hundred, it's just a they literally, like, I mean, 169 00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:13.399 I don't know how they're going about it. They weren't 170 00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:15.720 like picking ping pong balls out of a bucket with 171 00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:17.439 numbers on them. But there was a there was some 172 00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:19.800 level of process where they were pulling numbers and if 173 00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:21.879 your number was called, then you then you went up there. 174 00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:24.680 Gosh, imagine if you were on the grand jury or 175 00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:25.319 something like that. 176 00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:27.240 And I don't know, if you know. I think he's 177 00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:29.199 being honest. He's a judge, he should be, but he 178 00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:32.240 did because they ask. And by the way, there was 179 00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:34.519 like eight dates that like, hey, these are dates that 180 00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:36.600 like you have to be these are dates that. 181 00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:37.680 Like we need to know are you going to be 182 00:07:37.720 --> 00:07:38.319 available or not? 183 00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:41.279 And every single one of them that he called said 184 00:07:41.519 --> 00:07:44.079 they're available and they're willing to serve. And he was 185 00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:46.519 very thankful because again, like you know, he was that 186 00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:48.879 was really cool experience to just see the process. But 187 00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:51.319 also I was very impressed with the judge, but he 188 00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:53.800 was thankful anybody who said yes. And I'm like, well, 189 00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:55.839 I mean, I guess it's nice that you're thinking them also, 190 00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:57.360 you know, like it's kind of their duty, right. 191 00:07:57.720 --> 00:07:59.160 But he did say after all. 192 00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:02.000 Of them ended up, it seated in where you would 193 00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:05.680 see sit as a jerry in a courtroom. He said 194 00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:07.759 he thinks that's the first time they've ever gone through 195 00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:10.600 twelve people and not a one of them said yeah, 196 00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:12.560 there's this date that date that I know that I 197 00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:15.879 can't do it. So then I kept worrying that like 198 00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:17.959 they're going to have half of them say no, they 199 00:08:17.959 --> 00:08:20.040 can't do it, and then it'll get to me. And 200 00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:22.160 I'm just going to tell you I would be scared 201 00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:24.319 to say no because like I kind of feel like 202 00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:29.120 eventually it would be impacting me, you know, professionally, to 203 00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:32.320 where like I would have a legitimate reason if I 204 00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:33.919 told them like, yeah, hey, if I can't do this, 205 00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:35.639 then like it's going to it's going to impact my 206 00:08:36.279 --> 00:08:38.840 job or whatever, not because my employer would be like 207 00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:42.720 holding it out against me and retaliating because I've left 208 00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:43.840 to go do Jerry duty. 209 00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:45.600 But like what we do is different, like it's weird. 210 00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:47.279 Like, for example, you know, a big part of how 211 00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:51.480 I make money to do this is clients and endorsements, 212 00:08:51.480 --> 00:08:54.600 and like, if I'm not here to do exactly that 213 00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:58.240 on this platform, that's a big part of my money 214 00:08:58.240 --> 00:09:01.200 that I wouldn't get. So you know, not to say 215 00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:04.039 that like that would actually end up happening. But if 216 00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:06.960 you know, you just never know. So we'll see. I 217 00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:11.879 will say this. I really felt like Bullet County was 218 00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:16.080 small town America because of the two hundred people I 219 00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:18.159 saw four people I went to school with that I 220 00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:20.320 have not seen probably since we were in school. Two 221 00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:22.639 of them I forgot existed, And I'm like, wait a second, 222 00:09:22.799 --> 00:09:24.720 I know that guy. I was in school with him 223 00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:27.879 for I think every every year we were in school 224 00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:31.039 my cousin's name was called, he wasn't there. 225 00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:32.159 He didn't show up. 226 00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:36.480 I think he was able to provide some type of 227 00:09:36.679 --> 00:09:39.159 proof that he could be excused, But like, what are 228 00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:42.279 the chances my cousin, who, by the way, didn't grow 229 00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:44.559 up in Bullet County but happened to move there later 230 00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:47.559 in life, and then I saw somebody who listen to 231 00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:49.120 the show. It was like, I thought I'd see you here, 232 00:09:49.879 --> 00:09:53.159 So it felt like such a small world. But then again, 233 00:09:53.200 --> 00:09:56.399 I'm thinking, you know, Bullet County like it's po dunk. 234 00:09:57.159 --> 00:10:01.200 I'm sure the way Jefferson County residents maybe maybe not 235 00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:06.279 all of them, and it is smaller than Jefferson County substantially. 236 00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:08.759 But I looked this up because I was just curious, John, 237 00:10:08.919 --> 00:10:12.159 and you're a Bullet County native yourself. Bullet County is 238 00:10:12.759 --> 00:10:15.559 a top ten county in the state as far as population. 239 00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:18.399 That does that surprise you? That would have surprised me 240 00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:20.879 maybe five or ten years ago. But with the amount 241 00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:23.679 of people who were moving out this way from Jefferson County, 242 00:10:23.759 --> 00:10:25.879 especially out where I live in Mount Washington, that's not 243 00:10:25.919 --> 00:10:26.480 as surprising. 244 00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:28.600 Yeah, that's why traffic sucks out there. 245 00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:30.679 So I got to take my daughter to gymnastics in 246 00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:33.080 Mount Washington this evening, and I just I'm gonna be 247 00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:35.919 prepared to sit in awful traffic and then ask myself, like, 248 00:10:36.039 --> 00:10:39.279 I get it, Mount Washington's a beautiful place, but like 249 00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:44.720 I quite I would absolutely factor in Mount Washington traffic 250 00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:47.799 when it comes to visiting there unless I had to 251 00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:50.879 moving there. Like it's I mean, you actually live in 252 00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:52.519 a spot where you don't really like you could avoid 253 00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:53.360 it because you could. 254 00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:54.960 Get like I'm like right on the edge of the 255 00:10:54.960 --> 00:10:56.559 Shepherdsville Mount Washington line. 256 00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:59.799 Yeah, so you can go forty four at certain times 257 00:10:59.840 --> 00:11:04.000 in not be impacted. But like we went from Shepherdsville 258 00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:09.159 to you know the other side of forty four, meaning 259 00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:11.720 where it's you know, past Barchtown Road. We left my 260 00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:15.000 son's football game last week it like I don't know, 261 00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:19.000 maybe twelve thirty and we were taking my daughter to 262 00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:22.080 her grandmother's house, which is just straight down forty four 263 00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:26.080 past Bullet East, and no accident, like nothing, no big event, 264 00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:30.159 but just like traffic that sucked. And you wouldn't usually 265 00:11:30.159 --> 00:11:33.480 think that you'd get traffic like that in rural a 266 00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:36.399 rural area. I mean, it's not like we're in the 267 00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:38.440 middle of nowhere. I mean, clearly there's a ton of 268 00:11:38.440 --> 00:11:41.279 stuff going on out there now, but like it, traffic's crazy. 269 00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:42.919 So I don't know, I guess more than anything, it's 270 00:11:42.919 --> 00:11:45.039 just because i've I mean i've been I've i haven't 271 00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:47.200 lived there my whole life, but I've been you know, 272 00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:49.799 I was born and raised in Bullet County. When I 273 00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:52.919 did leave the county to move elsewhere, it was just, 274 00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:54.799 you know, probably a couple of miles away from the 275 00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:57.320 county line. I was away at school for a little while. 276 00:11:57.519 --> 00:12:01.039 I lived with my parents who live out in out 277 00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:03.159 in Jaytown. So I don't know, I just felt it 278 00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:06.440 was like very very random, and you know, small world. 279 00:12:06.600 --> 00:12:08.200 You know, I'm thinking, well, hey, I guess it makes sense. 280 00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:10.279 I've been here my whole life. But like, there's eighty 281 00:12:10.360 --> 00:12:14.840 five thousand residents in Bullet County that surprised you. 282 00:12:15.519 --> 00:12:17.000 Yeah, it seems like a pretty big number. 283 00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:20.440 So Jeffersy County is the biggest, and it's not even close. 284 00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:24.600 Seven hundred and seventy one thousand is the population as 285 00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:28.600 of twenty twenty four, according to World Population review dot com. 286 00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:33.120 Lexington the second biggest, but it's three hundred and twenty thousand, 287 00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:36.919 So think about the difference there, And then I would say, again, 288 00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:39.240 I don't know anything about these counties, but other counties 289 00:12:40.200 --> 00:12:43.200 in the top ten that surprised me. But again it's 290 00:12:43.279 --> 00:12:46.320 not because I mean, I was just surprised because I 291 00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:48.720 guess I didn't realize. Oh yeah, Campbell County, that's a 292 00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:52.600 big part of northern Kentucky. Boone County. So northern Kentucky's 293 00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:54.919 a big area as far as population, but the counties 294 00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:55.639 are kind of split. 295 00:12:55.720 --> 00:12:59.600 So like you've got Kenton, Boone, and Campbell. 296 00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:02.399 I think that those three represent that big area of 297 00:13:02.440 --> 00:13:06.480 northern Kentucky. But Warren County, Bowling Green that's it for 298 00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:11.679 Hardin County is really big. That's it's big geographically, Yes, 299 00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:13.399 that's right. In fact, I think it might be one 300 00:13:13.399 --> 00:13:16.000 of the biggest geographically. But it's also up there in 301 00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:20.720 population Davis County that's that's Owensboro area. And then Madison 302 00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:23.679 County is that like is that Hopkinsville Maybe, Like I 303 00:13:23.679 --> 00:13:26.720 don't know, Like, well said Madisonville, but yeah, Madison County. 304 00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:28.440 I've heard of it, but I don't know, like what 305 00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:32.799 big city that Richmond, So yeah, I guess yeah, Richmond, Yeah, 306 00:13:32.840 --> 00:13:37.200 right outside of Lexton there. So anyways, yeah, I don't Again, 307 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:38.919 I wish I thought today would be the day, like, hey, 308 00:13:38.960 --> 00:13:42.240 here here's what you know. You're gonna either not be 309 00:13:42.279 --> 00:13:44.799 needed at all or you're gonna be needed, and this 310 00:13:44.840 --> 00:13:46.960 is the day. But I got to call a number 311 00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:49.559 on September the thirtieth, to see if I am if 312 00:13:49.559 --> 00:13:53.200 I'm needed. So there you go, and thank you to 313 00:13:53.240 --> 00:13:54.799 those that have reached out to kind of share their 314 00:13:54.840 --> 00:13:57.039 stories of you know, the Jerry Do Dooo process, and 315 00:13:57.039 --> 00:13:59.080 in most of the people who have like chimed in 316 00:13:59.559 --> 00:14:02.120 since I've mentioning this the last couple of days have 317 00:14:02.240 --> 00:14:05.039 said that, yeah, they went through this process only to 318 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:09.519 never actually be needed. They weren't called to do anything. 319 00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:12.480 So we'll see. All right, well, let's get the show started. 320 00:14:12.559 --> 00:14:14.519 Show we fifteen minutes in and I've just been yapping 321 00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:18.120 about this Jerry duty situation. It is Coffee and Company. 322 00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:20.039 I'm sure you knew that. We are fueled by Thornton's 323 00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:23.559 here on Sports Talk seven ninety and we're going to 324 00:14:23.600 --> 00:14:25.159 take you up till six o'clock. We're going to talk 325 00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:27.879 to Alex kupper Cup's gon to join us to talk 326 00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:29.679 some Louisville football talk cards. 327 00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:29.960 And Notre Dame. 328 00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:32.559 We'll do that coming up at a three point thirty, 329 00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:35.759 and we'll also talk to doctor Larry Ben's in the 330 00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:37.240 four o'clock hours. So a couple of guys are going 331 00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:39.480 to join us, and there's certainly a lot to get into. 332 00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:43.320 We're getting closer and closer to the big game, and 333 00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:46.720 it is a big game. I mean, we were It's 334 00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:48.320 not like we play Notre Dame all the time. But 335 00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:50.399 this will be the third matchup between these schools. In fact, 336 00:14:50.440 --> 00:14:52.200 I'm sorry, this will be the fourth time these teams 337 00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:55.919 have played in the last five years, so you know, 338 00:14:56.759 --> 00:14:59.720 and then you won't play them again until twenty thirty two, 339 00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:02.000 think or it might be twenty thirty six. 340 00:15:02.360 --> 00:15:05.679 Maybe I don't. I mean I it's one of those dates. 341 00:15:06.200 --> 00:15:08.919 So anyways, a couple of joint us to talk about 342 00:15:08.960 --> 00:15:11.519 that A quick update for those that are interested. And 343 00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:13.519 I only, like, I know a lot of people don't 344 00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:17.240 care about betting on sports and I get it, and 345 00:15:17.360 --> 00:15:19.799 I'm not really doing this to like tell you what 346 00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:21.720 you should do when it comes to wagering, but I 347 00:15:21.799 --> 00:15:24.720 just think it's interesting to see those that are betting 348 00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:28.559 on this game what they're doing. And Sports Line does 349 00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:31.600 a good job of giving us, you know, an indication 350 00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:34.720 of how much you know, the percentage of those that 351 00:15:34.759 --> 00:15:37.840 are betting on Louisville or Notre Dame when it comes 352 00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:40.679 to the spread and the percentage and the money, the 353 00:15:40.720 --> 00:15:43.480 percentage in and you know what's going on in the 354 00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:45.879 money line as well. So you know, I'm not trying 355 00:15:45.879 --> 00:15:49.559 to position Louisville as some you know team that's being 356 00:15:49.600 --> 00:15:52.519 disrespected and doubted in a major way. But you know, 357 00:15:52.600 --> 00:15:55.440 Notre Dame lost in Northern Illinois. That loss has not 358 00:15:55.559 --> 00:16:00.799 aged well in any way. And Louisville, you know, they 359 00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:04.399 they haven't played anybody that is great. I think Georgia 360 00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:06.960 Tech's a solid team that will end up being you 361 00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:09.679 know that the rest of the way, and all of 362 00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:11.440 it did look great in that game. And you know, 363 00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:14.360 some and I was listening to some of these sports 364 00:16:14.440 --> 00:16:16.000 betting shows I listened to, and you know a lot 365 00:16:16.039 --> 00:16:20.080 of people are claiming Louisville, you know, their score little misleading, 366 00:16:20.240 --> 00:16:22.759 and I'm not sure if I'm sensitive to that, because 367 00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:26.519 maybe they're right. You don't usually see a team collect 368 00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:29.759 a special team's touchdown and a defensive touchdown in a game. 369 00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:32.240 And without those two big plays that Louisville made, you know, 370 00:16:32.279 --> 00:16:34.240 it could have been a different game. But it's also 371 00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:36.799 not as if, like, well, that was just pure luck. 372 00:16:37.000 --> 00:16:39.799 Georgia Tech deserved to win the game. Like if you 373 00:16:39.840 --> 00:16:41.120 have a pun or you have a you have a 374 00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:44.360 field goal blocked, Like that's not I mean like that 375 00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:46.919 that doesn't happen that often. But that's not like bad 376 00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:50.639 luck for for for for Georgia Tech. Same thing with 377 00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:54.000 that defensive touchdown. So anyways, I just don't know. I 378 00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:59.039 thought there'd be a little more picking Louisville to win 379 00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:04.440 the game. So only eight percent of the wagers that 380 00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:07.319 have been made on moneyline bets are on Louisville to win. 381 00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:12.079 So you know, despite Notre Dame having that bad loss 382 00:17:12.119 --> 00:17:14.200 at home and again, Notre Dame does have a win 383 00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:17.240 against Texas A and M that quite literally is better 384 00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:19.119 than any Louisville win up to this point, Like we 385 00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:19.480 know that. 386 00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:20.240 So I don't know. 387 00:17:20.279 --> 00:17:22.720 I just I'm confident in this Louisville team. I think 388 00:17:22.720 --> 00:17:24.319 they can go there and win. It's if we'd end 389 00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:28.279 up doing our postgame show on Saturday, and you know, 390 00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:34.200 it's it's it's not. It's not a victory, like I'm 391 00:17:34.240 --> 00:17:35.799 not going to be floored. It's not as if like 392 00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:37.559 it's going to be a stunner. But I think they've 393 00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:40.440 got the tools the personnel to go up there and win. 394 00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:42.039 I think they've got the edge when it comes to 395 00:17:42.079 --> 00:17:46.240 the coaching matchup, and you know, we shall see. I 396 00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:51.039 just felt like Notre Dame losing to Northern Illinois and 397 00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:58.519 then not really being impressive, not covering against Miami Ohio team, 398 00:17:58.599 --> 00:18:00.359 Like I just I kind of felt liked be a 399 00:18:00.400 --> 00:18:02.599 little more love for Louisville to go up there and 400 00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:05.119 win the damn game. But you know, we haven't got 401 00:18:05.160 --> 00:18:07.000
