You just heard John Shannon and 6 00:00:09.599 --> 00:00:11.960 of course John Alden alongside the crew is here.

We're present. I 10 00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:20.120 also want you guys to know you could take us 11 00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:21.760 with you wherever you go. Listen live on the out 12 00:00:21.839 --> 00:00:25.559 radio app. Also listen live at WHAS dot com. And 13 00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:28.800 I think if you are a resident of the Bargetown 14 00:00:28.839 --> 00:00:31.800 Road area near where all the Shenanigans have taken place 15 00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:33.520 in the last couple of weeks, or if you are 16 00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:36.119 a business owner, you want to wait and see if 17 00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:38.399 in fact there's progress made. But I think there's early 18 00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:42.880 signs of potential progress. We do have at least one 19 00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:45.399 business that has decided that they will they're going to 20 00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:48.640 go ahead and start closing two hours earlier, So Highland 21 00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:51.719 Taphouse is going to close at two am now instead 22 00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:54.439 of four am. Moving forward, and our partner over at 23 00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:57.719 woky Addie Minors, she talked to some of the residents 24 00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:00.159 and here are their thoughts on just the current situation. 25 00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:02.039 As obviously this has been a big story in the 26 00:01:02.119 --> 00:01:05.079 last last few days. You know, people go out and 27 00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:07.560 have a good time till two or maybe four am. 28 00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:10.439 Now it's more of a contest of what can we 29 00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:13.439 get away with right how crazy can it get. 30 00:01:13.599 --> 00:01:15.920 You've got to have the local leadership involved. 31 00:01:15.959 --> 00:01:17.599 You've got to make sure they're on board with it, 32 00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:19.680 and you've got to make sure that they're all on 33 00:01:19.719 --> 00:01:22.040 the same page as the residents and the business owners. 34 00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:24.200 I think these are steps in the right direction. 35 00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:27.719 Highland tap Room, that's great they start closing it too. 36 00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:30.480 I think will be even better if everyone else started 37 00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:33.359 closing it too. You'll move the noise earlier. Instead of 38 00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:34.760 being three or four in the morning, it'll be two 39 00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:36.920 in the morning. But in general, it's probably a better 40 00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:39.480 idea to close the bars earlier, just because people have 41 00:01:39.519 --> 00:01:42.159 a little less time to drink and it'll be less 42 00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:44.200 of a problem at two than four. 43 00:01:44.519 --> 00:01:44.680 Now. 44 00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:47.319 Both may Or Greenberg and Chief Paul Humphreys did speak 45 00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:51.040 publicly again about this issue today. Chief Paul Humphrey said 46 00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:54.239 that LMPD will once again this weekend have a larger 47 00:01:54.359 --> 00:01:58.599 police presence on Bardstown Road, and they will be enforcing 48 00:01:58.640 --> 00:02:01.439 the law. They'll be towing cars, is issuing tickets, and 49 00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:04.120 arresting anyone that's not complying with the law. 50 00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:09.520 So last night Mary Greenberg released a statement on social 51 00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:13.159 media saying that inspectors from the Louisville Metro Department of 52 00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:16.080 Public Health and Wellness made a visit to Friends who 53 00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:18.159 Can Lounge on Bargetown Road, and they were able to 54 00:02:18.159 --> 00:02:22.240 determine that business was operating with an expired license. So 55 00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:25.719 they've been ordered to remain closed until this is resolved. 56 00:02:25.719 --> 00:02:27.599 So you've got one bar that had stepped up. Maybe 57 00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:29.520 you just need one to get others to follow along 58 00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:32.319 and say, all right, we'll also close our doors earlier. 59 00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:34.159 And then now you've got at least one. And I 60 00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:37.199 have no clue really which specific business, And it wouldn't 61 00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:39.360 be fair to blame what has been going on in 62 00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:42.199 the last couple of weeks on any of these specific 63 00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:45.000 businesses individually. I'm sure maybe there are some things they 64 00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:46.919 could do better, but also I'm sure some of them 65 00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:49.879 feel helpless, and I'm sure there's many of them that 66 00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:52.719 don't want anything close to what's been going on, because 67 00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:55.479 not only is it not needed, not necessary, it can 68 00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:57.960 only prevent more people from wanting to come and give 69 00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:00.759 those businesses business. So again we've got one bar closing 70 00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:02.639 down and one that has been shut down for the 71 00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:05.159 time being because they did not have the right license. 72 00:03:05.159 --> 00:03:07.879 You got to think if you were operating with the 73 00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:09.840 hopes that you can fly under the radar without a 74 00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:12.879 valid liquor license or whatever is needed to be open, 75 00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:14.919 you had to know they were going to come. Look, 76 00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:16.639 and just given how much attention this thing has gotten 77 00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:17.759 in the last couple of days. 78 00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:19.199 You know, it makes me wonder, Nick, how many other 79 00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:22.159 places in the city, not just Barstown Road, are running 80 00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:25.400 about the liquor licenses? And what makes you do you 81 00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:27.520 ever read the restaurant or not the restaurant, but when 82 00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:29.800 the health Department goes into different restaurants, Oh yeah, you 83 00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:30.840 read those when they come out. 84 00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:32.439 Sometimes I don't want to, but I do. 85 00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:33.919 Yeah, it's a it's weird. 86 00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:36.080 And so you wonder how many other restaurants are doing 87 00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:38.039 that in along the same lines, how many other folks 88 00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:40.400 Barston Rose getting the attention right now because she's lightning 89 00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:42.639 right and rightfully so, because the people aren't riding in 90 00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:45.439 other places. But it does make you wonder how many 91 00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:46.479 other people are flying. 92 00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:48.439 Under the right well, and you've got to think that 93 00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:51.800 you know if if in fact me so, if you've 94 00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:56.800 been to a restaurant, a bar, a gas station, wherever 95 00:03:56.879 --> 00:03:58.719 you can purchase alcohol, whether it's you're going to take 96 00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:00.639 it home or you're gonna buy at the bar, you're 97 00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:02.599 gonna get it at the table while you're eating dinner, 98 00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:06.360 you can always sense when there's more of a real 99 00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:10.240 strict awareness of ID and that means they probably got 100 00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:12.960 cited for something. They probably weren't following rules, so they 101 00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:14.360 keep up with it as best they can. But as 102 00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:16.120 far as just I mean, that's it's one thing to 103 00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:18.759 maybe just assume somebody was of age and you didn't 104 00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:21.360 check and they weren't, or maybe you didn't realize there 105 00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:23.040 was somebody there just to test you, to see if 106 00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:24.319 you were going to be if you were going to 107 00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:27.959 actually ID someone, but to operate with a license that 108 00:04:28.079 --> 00:04:30.839 is clearly I mean, I feel like the resources they have, 109 00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.120 I mean, if you if you're if you've if you're 110 00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:36.000 open for business and your license is not up to date, 111 00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:38.879 they're gonna know I mean, I wouldn't. I certainly wouldn't, 112 00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:41.519 wouldn't risk it, but you know some people, some people do. 113 00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:45.399 But yeah, four am being the closing time for a 114 00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:47.680 lot of bars in the area. And I'm not knocking 115 00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:49.680 anybody who enjoys the night life. I mean, I would 116 00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:52.040 hope those would go out and be responsible and have 117 00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:53.839 a good time in a safe manner and you know, 118 00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:56.319 don't be a criminal that kind of stuff. But knowing 119 00:04:56.360 --> 00:04:58.879 that I now get up a lot earlier than bars 120 00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:02.360 stay open, it's been a real it's really stood out 121 00:05:02.360 --> 00:05:04.160 in the last couple of days that this is absolutely 122 00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:06.560 a lifestyle change for me. But hey, so far, so good. 123 00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:10.639 It's a lot of fun. And yeah, you're maturing. I'm 124 00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:14.160 an early roser. Now, yeah, maturing. I don't know, do 125 00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:14.839 we have to. 126 00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:16.839 Just some as you don't turn into a They told me. 127 00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:18.199 I didn't have to mature on this show. 128 00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:19.279 I kid. 129 00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:19.959 Yeah. 130 00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:23.240 Anyways, all right, we've got another update of trafficking weather 131 00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:25.839 coming your way, and we hope you stick around.

It's Morning News on news 133 00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:32.720 radio eight forty whas seven fifteen here at Kentucky at 134 00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:35.519 It's Morning News. On news radio eight forty w h as. 135 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:41.839 I'm someone who enjoys fast food, just like most people 136 00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:44.360 probably do. I know not everyone does. Some people say 137 00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:47.399 they don't, but they're liars. Some people just know that 138 00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:49.560 it's tasty, but they don't need it because they're really healthy. 139 00:05:49.800 --> 00:05:52.319 Which reminds me of our conversation earlier this week. We're 140 00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:55.480 talking about snacking and you know, eating things and drinking 141 00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:58.519 things that maybe aren't great for us, and I referenced, 142 00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:01.079 you know, too many have to limit the bush like 143 00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.120 consumption now that I got to go to bed a lot. Earlier, 144 00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:05.920 John was talking about eating Dorito's and Scott mentioned his 145 00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:08.959 his his weakness. His midnight snack is watermelon. I mean 146 00:06:09.000 --> 00:06:11.240 that's weekends, it's chocolate. 147 00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:12.560 I sucked. 148 00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:17.759 Half the reason I bring this up is because McDonald's 149 00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:20.839 and I like McDonald's. I don't eat it a whole lot. 150 00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:23.160 When I do, it's pretty pretty damn good if I'm 151 00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:25.160 being honest with you. But I stick with just a 152 00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:27.480 double cheeseburger. That's my go to. But I know a 153 00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:31.319 lot of folks right now are pumped because McDonald's announced 154 00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:34.199 they're going to bring back an item permanently that I 155 00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:36.360 guess has been away for quite some time. The snack 156 00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:38.639 wrap is going to be back on the menu starting 157 00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:42.600 July tenth, and it was last available in twenty sixteen, 158 00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:46.519 and it now comes in spicy and ranch flavors with 159 00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:50.360 new mccrispy strips. This decision, of course, it was it 160 00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:53.800 was very much approved by those that are big McDonald's 161 00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:56.480 crunch trap fans. And it reminds me, by the way, 162 00:06:56.560 --> 00:06:57.480 have you guys had one of those? 163 00:06:57.600 --> 00:06:57.959 Yeah? 164 00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:01.360 I one, Yeah, I haven't. I'm sure it's tap, I'm 165 00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:03.279 sure it's fine, but you know, I'm very I have 166 00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:06.519 the palette of a toddler. I like what I like, cheeseburgers, 167 00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:11.480 chicken wings, pizza, you know, when it comes to those 168 00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:14.319 kind of when it comes to fast food, there's not 169 00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:17.920 many places where I've got a diverse selection. I'm usually, 170 00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:19.439 you know, I know exactly what I'm gonna get, But 171 00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:23.480 there are food items that maybe these these industry, these 172 00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:26.560 these franchises, they never realized We're going to be so popular, 173 00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:27.920 or maybe they didn't realize they were going to be 174 00:07:27.959 --> 00:07:29.920 missed so much. But I mean, I remember when the 175 00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:34.600 MG rib went away. I don't know anybody pre McRib 176 00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:37.639 being gone. That was big McRib fan. I knew what 177 00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:39.680 it was. They took it away, and it was can 178 00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:42.040 you believe they got rid of the McRib and they 179 00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:44.360 brought it back. Is there any fast food item that 180 00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.879 you you miss that you wish was still around? I'll 181 00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:49.399 say ster watermelon guy. 182 00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:52.079 Was thinking about it. 183 00:07:52.079 --> 00:07:56.360 You're you're talking McDonald's. They've only had these, I believe, once, 184 00:07:56.639 --> 00:07:58.240 and I don't know if they've ever brought them back. 185 00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:00.920 But they did their own version of spicy chicken McNuggets 186 00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:02.959 a couple of years ago. And I'm not a big 187 00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:05.759 McNugget guy in general, but I tried the spicy ones 188 00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:08.000 and I went back two or three different times for 189 00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:11.360 a second or third order of them on different days. 190 00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:12.839 I don't know if they'll ever bring them back by 191 00:08:12.839 --> 00:08:15.040 the McDonald's, Yeah, they had them. 192 00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:18.240 I know Wendy's they have spicy chicken nuggets and they 193 00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:21.680 were discontinued in twenty seventeen. People rided in the streets 194 00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:23.519 until they brought them back in twenty nineteen. 195 00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:25.959 Speaking of that, do you guys ever go get like 196 00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:28.800 like nostalgia? For for example, I was at the store last 197 00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:31.360 night and they had the Doritos. This isn't fast food, 198 00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:33.799 but they had the Dorito's taco flavor in the old 199 00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:37.120 school packaging, which I just inhaled as a kid, and 200 00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:39.879 I was right there wanting to pick up a bag 201 00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:42.200 for the weekend. But over the weekend I did buy 202 00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:46.960 Fego's Big Up in Michigan. Pego Redpop is amazing and 203 00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:49.600 it's kind of like Big Red here, same different, different 204 00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:51.240 few but it was Fago. 205 00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:52.960 So it was the last time you had the Taco 206 00:08:53.000 --> 00:08:55.159 bell got or the Taco Doritos. I got to ask, 207 00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:57.720 oh Man, probably talking like many years. 208 00:08:57.440 --> 00:08:58.960 A long time ago, dude, since I was. 209 00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:00.320 A kid, I want you to get them. 210 00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:00.960 I will. 211 00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:04.279 I'll give it because what I want to see is 212 00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:05.799 are they as good as you? Remember? 213 00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:05.960 Who? 214 00:09:06.159 --> 00:09:06.600 Is it more? 215 00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:09.480 You just you just don't because I'll admit I was 216 00:09:10.600 --> 00:09:13.120 a big fan of the chicken fries at Burger King. 217 00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:17.279 They were briefly around and they were like the perfect spice. 218 00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:19.279 I mean, it was like you were eating French fries, 219 00:09:19.320 --> 00:09:21.440 but they were chicken Wichigan, hence why they call them 220 00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:24.600 chicken fries. They discontinued him in twenty twelve, and I 221 00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:27.919 was bummed, and they brought them back permanently in twenty fourteen, 222 00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:31.240 and they were fine. I enjoyed them, but I think 223 00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:35.000 it was the intrigue of you know, they were good, 224 00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:36.879 and I don't think they changed them, but it was 225 00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:39.320 the knowing I may never have them again that had 226 00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:41.120 me thinking, oh, those were the best thing ever. I'm 227 00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:43.039 so sad they're gone. So I'm just curious if you 228 00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:45.639 end up having the Doritos, will they You gotta keep 229 00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:47.320 us up thered this is still this is a story 230 00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:50.200 we're gonna follow here on news Radiot Forny whas did 231 00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:54.159 the taco flavored Doritos uphold the way they did for 232 00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:56.240 Scott Fitzgerald, The taste as good as they did many 233 00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:56.720 years ago. 234 00:09:56.840 --> 00:09:59.759 I'll posted social media and to your point, we have 235 00:09:59.759 --> 00:10:01.440 a few place back home that we used to go 236 00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:02.320 to as kids that we love. 237 00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:03.159 Purchase a big. 238 00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:06.080 Thing back home, and so many people have gone back 239 00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:08.240 to this place. It's still there, but they say it 240 00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:11.279 doesn't taste like it did because obviously they had to 241 00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:12.360 get rid of transfats. 242 00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:14.320 That was a good deal. So a lot of these 243 00:10:14.320 --> 00:10:15.600 foods are changing taste. 244 00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:18.399 Heck, if there's been a long time since you've made it. 245 00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:19.559 You may not even be able to get the same 246 00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:20.320 ingredient she used to. 247 00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:22.720 That's exactly right, that's where it's going with that. So 248 00:10:22.759 --> 00:10:24.600 I'm going to try it. I'm going to take a 249 00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:27.919 look and see what they are. But nostalgic foods are amazing. 250 00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:30.399 Oh yeah, I mean, and I want to continue this 251 00:10:30.440 --> 00:10:32.480 conversation a little bit further coming up in the eight 252 00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:35.519 o'clock hour, because these are items that were really popular 253 00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:37.679 that everybody brought back. I mean, I think my wife 254 00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:39.440 camped out at Taco Bell when they brought back the 255 00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:41.200 Mexican pizza a couple of years ago. It was a 256 00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:43.279 big deal, was a big moment in the coffee household. 257 00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:46.360 She was very, very happy. She was happy once again 258 00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:48.720 and to have the Mexican pizza. But there's also a 259 00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:51.320 lot of menu items from these fast food places that 260 00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:53.879 you probably forgot about that were big failures, right, So 261 00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:55.039 I want to hit on that coming up in the 262 00:10:55.080 --> 00:10:57.600 eight o'clock hour, So stick around. It's Kentucky and His 263 00:10:57.679 --> 00:10:59.799 Morning News. It is seven twenty. Your next update on 264 00:10:59.799 --> 00:11:01.679 te Avagan weather coming up right here right now on 265 00:11:01.720 --> 00:11:06.480 News Radio eight forty whas. Thank you, John. It is 266 00:11:06.519 --> 00:11:08.639 seven thirty five here at Kentucky and it's morning news 267 00:11:08.639 --> 00:11:12.759 on news Radio eight forty whas it could just be me, 268 00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:17.000 but I feel like seeing that new episodes of Jeopardy 269 00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:21.279 and Will of Fortune set to just stream only for 270 00:11:21.320 --> 00:11:24.440 the first time is a big is a big step 271 00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:29.000 in pretty much everything is going to eventually be exclusively 272 00:11:29.039 --> 00:11:31.799 on streaming. I mean, maybe I'm wrong here because those 273 00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:35.320 when I think of just randomly throwing on something that 274 00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:39.519 is on live television, I think of local news sports. 275 00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:42.639 Obviously that's really the only thing I watch consistently that 276 00:11:42.759 --> 00:11:46.559 is live. Anything else I just watch on demand, whether 277 00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:50.080 it be YouTube TV or anything on Netflix, Hulu, Amazon 278 00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:52.120 Prime and whatnot. And I know I'm not alone. We've 279 00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:53.840 made a big, big push to the streaming world in 280 00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:56.919 the last ten plus years. But like Jeopardy and Will 281 00:11:56.919 --> 00:11:59.879 of Fortune, I feel like those are two of the 282 00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:02.399 rare type of programs that would still have a good 283 00:12:02.440 --> 00:12:05.840 audience for folks who watched that live. But you can 284 00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:07.320 still watch it live, but some of them are going 285 00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:10.879 to be just streaming exclusively, which I mean, it doesn't 286 00:12:10.840 --> 00:12:12.679 it doesn't it feel like a big sun because those 287 00:12:12.679 --> 00:12:14.519 are those are shows that have been around for a long, 288 00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:15.120 long time. 289 00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:18.120 Yeah, exactly, And that's what I used to do a 290 00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:21.320 lot of antony and I had this conversation. That's how 291 00:12:21.320 --> 00:12:24.080 I picked them on Reacher. I would picked them on 292 00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:27.159 full swing on Netflix. I think Netflix has hit it 293 00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:29.159 out of the park when it comes to sports documentaries. 294 00:12:29.320 --> 00:12:32.120 Totally agree, you know. And and then I. 295 00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:35.279 Don't watch much on regular TV, although I'm not home 296 00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:37.799 a lot now because I'm a bit more active. When 297 00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:39.679 I get home, I might watch an episode of Bob's 298 00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:43.600 Burgers or Three's Company, but I'll find it on demand 299 00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:45.720 on my Internet or on my cable provider. 300 00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:47.879 And and then I'm going to bed. 301 00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:51.480 Yeah, when I think to watch something, if it's not sports, 302 00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:54.840 it's something that is not live and yeah, I can 303 00:12:54.879 --> 00:12:57.039 watch anytime and it's on one of those many platforms. 304 00:12:57.039 --> 00:13:00.360 I mean, there are shows that I would would consider 305 00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:04.320 some of my favorites that were lengthy, multiple seasons, that 306 00:13:04.360 --> 00:13:06.879 you really just binge. And I'm not sure if I 307 00:13:06.879 --> 00:13:09.080 would have stuck around if we were in the previous 308 00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:12.039 world where you you know, you know, let's say pre DVR, 309 00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:14.039 where you know, you can't just wait for it to 310 00:13:14.039 --> 00:13:16.879 build up in DVR. It you have to literally watch 311 00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:19.960 it every week and and and if not, you maybe 312 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:22.480 need to get the VCR out and record it. I mean, 313 00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:24.159 that's that's way back in the day, but I'm sure 314 00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:27.519 many people remember that. Again, I like these shows, but 315 00:13:27.559 --> 00:13:29.200 I do wonder if if I would have stuck it 316 00:13:29.240 --> 00:13:31.039 out and I would have missed out, because they're really good. 317 00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:34.120 But I think consuming shows in a in a in 318 00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:37.639 a quick binge, it's a different experience than than watching 319 00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:40.559 a show where each week it's a different it's a 320 00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:42.600 you know, it's a different episode and you gotta wait 321 00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:43.720 a week to see the next one. 322 00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:46.440 Yeah, and they're in this trend now where they'll release 323 00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:49.960 everything but the last episode so you can binge it 324 00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:52.399 all the way up and then have this premiere at 325 00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:54.600 the end. Let me ask you this. When it came 326 00:13:54.639 --> 00:13:57.200 to the NFL on Prime, did you watch that coverage? 327 00:13:57.240 --> 00:13:58.159 Oh yeah, yeah see. 328 00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:00.240 And I remember when they first announced, people like I'm 329 00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:01.639 not streaming this, and. 330 00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:04.960 Then NASCAR liars, right, they're liars. 331 00:14:04.559 --> 00:14:07.039 And then NASCAR now is on Prime. Prime bought into 332 00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:08.240 NASCAR now. Yeah. 333 00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:10.320 I mean, look, the reason that these streaming networks are 334 00:14:10.320 --> 00:14:13.320 paying unheard of money, money that I'm not even sure 335 00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:15.200 physically could exist if you had to go to a 336 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:16.879 bank somewhere and get it out. I don't think it. 337 00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:19.799 I mean it's the money that they're paying to have 338 00:14:19.879 --> 00:14:22.600 exclusive rights for a Thursday night game on Amazon, for 339 00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:25.759 a Christmas Day game on Netflix with the NFL. It's 340 00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:28.480 because they realize the power the power of that right. 341 00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:31.440 There's not much content out there that people consume at 342 00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:35.159 a high level that is live, and sports is the 343 00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:36.960 monster has been for a long time. So they're going 344 00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:39.159 to get a return on that investment because maybe there 345 00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:40.840 will be some that do say, yeah, I used to 346 00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:42.639 just be able to turn on my television and watch 347 00:14:42.679 --> 00:14:44.559 the game. If I got to go download an app 348 00:14:44.600 --> 00:14:46.240 and sign up for this, and that I'm not doing 349 00:14:46.279 --> 00:14:49.039 it enough will, I mean it's be proven enough, will, 350 00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:50.360 and it'll be a profitable thing. 351 00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:50.799 Well. 352 00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:53.519 And the three easiest people to market to are new parents, 353 00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:56.919 sports fans, and pet lovers yep, because they will spend 354 00:14:56.919 --> 00:14:57.559 money on anything. 355 00:14:57.559 --> 00:14:58.399 And so when you get to. 356 00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:00.840 A sports people know how to take advantage of that boom. 357 00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:02.840 And because I'm telling you right now, with the Tigers 358 00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:05.200 having the best record in baseball, now I throw my 359 00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:09.039 cell phone provider, I get MLB TV subscription for free, 360 00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:12.159 and this cell phone provider actually signed up for another 361 00:15:12.200 --> 00:15:15.639 three years because it's a deal breaker because people will 362 00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:18.360 come over and purchase that plan if they get that 363 00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:20.240 for free, And it makes me wonder. I don't think 364 00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:22.960 the NFL will ever do it because right now, Sunday 365 00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:24.159 ticket still is the cash cow. 366 00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:26.000 Sure, and it always will. 367 00:15:25.879 --> 00:15:28.919 Be because it's it's the machine that feeds the beast. 368 00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:31.639 But you know, you look at college football. Would you 369 00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:34.240 pay extra to your Cardinals fan? Would you pay extra 370 00:15:34.240 --> 00:15:36.120 to watch the Cardinals every week if they suddenly pulled 371 00:15:36.159 --> 00:15:37.080 them off regular TV? 372 00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:37.559 Yes? 373 00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:39.600 I mean I don't want to get into a bidding war, 374 00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:42.200 but I mean I wouldn't if in fact, there was 375 00:15:42.240 --> 00:15:44.200 a price that, you know, let's say I had let's 376 00:15:44.200 --> 00:15:47.360 say I had to pay nineteen ninety nine per week 377 00:15:47.480 --> 00:15:50.320 to watch the game. That would add up and I 378 00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:52.879 wouldn't like it, yep. But I'd be lying to you 379 00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:54.440 if I said I wouldn't do it, because I would 380 00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:56.159 want to watch my team.
