Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

Stadium Sites Taking Shape, Make KK The Bad Guy, Royals 5 of 6, B12 Commish Gushes on Avery Johnson, Comey/Brennan Investigated, Trump Steals Clock, OP City Hall Shocker

   Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe is headed to NKC Friday to support the new sports authority in Clay County, this is a huge sign of support for the Royals new ballpark being built there.  Meanwhile, Chiefs president Mark Donovan makes another comment suggesting the team has it's eyes on a new stadium in Kansas.
   It's been a wild 48 hours after my comments about Patrick Mahomes vacation photos buried 34 minutes deep into Monday's pod.  We appreciate Fox News for actually listening to what I said and getting the story right while everyone else wildly overreacted.  But hey, this is perfect.  I'm serious, the team can make me the bad guy if they want.  Even Mayor Q is piling on.
   The Boys are playin' Some Ball again as the Royals have won 5 of 6.  The Big 12 commish drops an incredible stat about the league's QB's and gushes face to face with Avery Johnson on a hot mic.
   In DC, an investigation into Russia, Russia, Russia is starting, Trump takes a grandfather clock from the State Department to the White House, Mars candy pushes back against RFK Jr and Overland Park is breaking the bank on a new City Hall.
 

Fake Mahomes Controversy Goes Viral, Chiefs Need Year for Another Vote, R's Rolling, DeSantis Has Musk Plan, Mayor Q's Splash is Cool, Buc-ee's Delayed, Prime Days Record

   It's always silly when somebody says something true and it creates a controversy.  Patrick Mahomes has belly fat.  He's also changed the way the game is played and is the greatest player of his generation.  Reaction to my buried in the back of the podcast comments Monday went viral after Mahomes' trainer came after me on social media.  He's the first trainer in history to argue that belly fat is a good thing and, like a great democrat politician, the fanatics actually believe him.  It's your option to find it charming and good... it's my job to point out the belly fat will be gone someday when Mahomes gets serious like other athletes in their 30's. 
   Kansas extended their STAR bond offer to the Royals and Chiefs and immediately Chiefs president Mark Donovan says it will take nearly a year to put something on the ballot for the team to stay in Missouri.  This is insane.
   The Royals are rolling but it feels like too little too late.  A Pirates player in KC has an awesome list of no trade teams in his contract as he obviously hates income taxes.  Ron DeSantis has a better plan, a perfect plan, for Elon Musk.
   Mayor Q takes a dip in a new pool with a shirt and tie on and I think it's a very cool thing for him to do.  Buc-ee's construction at the Speedway is delayed a couple months and Amazon Prime Day is now bigger than Black Friday.

Texas Floods Tragic, BBB in Effect, ICE is Big Winner, Obama Holiday Bummer, Football in 3 Weeks, Mahomes is Fat, R's All Stars

   What was supposed to be a celebratory holiday weekend turned tragic in Texas with some of the most horrific flash flooding we've ever seen.  The stories of loss are just heartbreaking and the stories of heroism are remarkable.
   The Big, Beautiful Bill is in full effect and there are plenty of reasons to cheer.  But the biggest winner may be ICE which gets an incredible boost of support in this legislation.
   Obama threw a wet blanket on Independence Day with a dark, dire, cynical post about our great holiday.  
   We have an NFL pre season game three weeks from Thursday... let's go.  And as the Chiefs get ready to open camp in a few days, it's clear quarterback Patrick Mahomes will have to play his way into shape after vacation photos of him shirtless hit the tabloids. 
    The Royals have won 3 of their last 4 but lost another game toward the wildcard.  And we'll tell you who made the All Star team.

Song of Year, NKC Has Best R's Site, Shawnee Man in Hot Dog Contest, Young Dems Hate Jews, Columbia U Prank for Trump, Ted Lasso in KC

   We begin with our Song of the Year today and you may remember this version from the Chiefs Super Bowl pregame when KC beat the Eagles.
   Wednesday I was given a private tour of the location, amenities and plans for a new Royals ballpark in the Northland.  Much of it is off the record still... but I've got plenty of details for you about the best place for the Royals to play.
   A Shawnee man, with the help of his parents coaching him, has qualified for the 4th of July Hot Dog eating contest on ESPN2 against Joey Chestnut.
   A stunning CNN poll shows that young Democrats hate Jews and love Palestine.  Columbia University is hacked in the funniest way possible and it involves President Trump.
   And Ted Lasso is setting up shop in KC for the new season everyone said would never happen.... except for one humble podcast host who guaranteed it two years ago.

Schmitt Clarifies BBB, Bessent Hits Jay Powell, Trump Racks up Wins, Salvy's Mystery Hit, World Cup KC Defunded, Big Ben Slams Mahomes, Creed Humphrey Mancave

   Shortly after the Senate passed the Big, Beautiful Bill, Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt clarified for everyone that it does eliminate 1.4 million illegal aliens from receiving benefits under Medicaid.  What a relief.
   At the same time, Secretary Scott Bessent went on the attack trying to get interest rates down.  In a scathing attack on Fed Chair Jay Powell, Bessent says "complete panic" is not a strategy.  Wow.
   If you can believe it, our KKHI scoreboard shows Trump had SEVEN wins on Tuesday, wait until you hear all these.
  In sports, everyone thought Salvy had a three run homer in KC's win over Seattle Tuesday.  Wait until you hear about a bone headed play by a centerfielder that fooled everyone.
   Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe is taking money away from World Cup KC.... good move.  Big Ben Roethlisberger slams Patrick Mahomes.  A Diamondbacks fan is booted for the season and a country music star cuts off an interview when they ask him about his wife and other men.

WNBA Racism Exposed, R's Worse Than Rockies, Peanut Tillman's New Career, F1 is Brad Pitt's Biggest, RFK Jr Gets Trump, B-2 Pilots to White House

   If you weren't convinced the WNBA is filled with a bunch of racists that hate Caitlyn Clark wait until you hear how the other players voted for Clark for the All Star game.  
   The Royals complete a dreadful June that has taken them out of the playoff race and put them in a worse category than the Colorado Rockies.
   Former NFL star Charles "Peanut" Tillman has an incredible new career.
   Brad Pitt talks about going to Mizzou and growing up in Missouri promoting his new movie F1.  The movie's opening weekend was the biggest of Pitt's career.
   RFK totally understands President Trump, Steven Miller exposes the Dems gameplan and tariffs collected in June are up billions and billions of dollars.

Big Beautiful Week, Kansas Disrespects Royals, Kamala is Toxic, Bobby Witt Needs Help, World Cup Attendance Disaster

   Is this the week for the big, beautiful bill to pass?  If president Trump has his way, he will sign it on the Fourth of July.  But somehow that seems too good to be true.  Then again, Trump is on a heater and everything seems possible.
   Kansas Senate president Ty Masterson released all the information on a potential Chiefs stadium in KCK and did a tv interview this week to talk about it.  In the process, he couldn't have disrespected the Royals more.
   Kamala Harris can't even line up donors to help her run for Governor of California.  Bobby Witt Jr needs your help to be the starter in the all star game.  And the World Cup group stage matches featured over 1 million empty seats.

A Different Kind of Day, Kansas Senate Reveals Chiefs Plans, Royals Time to Trade, Springsteen Truth Told Here, 4th of July Song of Week

   Thursday was a different kind of day for many reasons for your humble host featuring our meet and greet t-shirt giveaway, a crazy thunder storm and the strangest concert experience ever.
   It happened on a day where the president of the Kansas Senate released a letter from Chiefs president Mark Donovan that details exactly what the Chiefs want to build in Kansas as they ask for a STAR bond extension.
   The Royals are the third worst team in baseball over the past 50 game and that's no small sample.  As they get swept at home, again, it's time to start trading for the future.
   There will be no podcast next Friday on July 4 so we take this Friday to take a look at the often looked over holiday playlist we often get wrong.  There is one song in particular you should never, ever play on the fourth of July yet it's actually ranked as the top song ever for this holiday.  It's by Bruce Springsteen and we will tell you the truth today about this America hater.
   Then we play a great song that honors the flag as our song of the week.

KS STAR Bonds Extended, Sportsradio Downfall is Real, Cooper Flagg is Caitlyn Clark, Arch Manning vs Avery Johnson, Autopen Scandal Grows, First Date Cancelled by Election,

   According to reports, Kansas has extended the STAR bonds that could be used by the Royals and Chiefs for new facilities.  Because of the way it was originally written, they could not extend it for a short time so they had to extend it for a full year.  What an embarrassment.
   A columnist pens a perfect piece on why Sportsradio has declined in popularity in America, I'm sure you know I have some thoughts on this.
   White boy Cooper Flagg, from Duke, is the top pick in the NBA Draft.  Will the NBA treat this superstar like they treat Caitlyn Clark in the WNBA?  He's playing in Dallas, no less.  These leagues have a choice to make.  Stick with all their traditional liberal hate and bias or embrace new faces for their league that make them uncomfortable.
   Legendary coach Steve Spurrier was asked about Texas qb Arch Manning as the favorite for the Heisman this year and responded asking if he's so great, why didn't Texas do with Manning what K-State has done with Avery Johnson, who is 6 months younger.
   In DC, the Joe Biden autopen scandal gets worse, the NY Mayor's race cancels a first date for a couple that exploded on social media and Alligator Alcatraz construction begins in the Florida Everglades.
