Winning is Fun, Chiefs Ring in New Season, Royals Amazing Save, Scherzer Top Notch, Parade Shooter Released, Crime Stat Shocker

   Winning is fun and this Fun Friday we start by giving away the grill combo for Father's Day from our friends at www.smokenfire.com.  I surprise the winner with a phone call, we'll play it for you.
   The Chiefs got their new Super Bowl rings and they are unbelievable!  But the players are already talking about winning another this season.
   The Royals were great until they weren't on Thursday.  Then, left for dead, they pulled off the most needed walkoff yet.
   Max Scherzer, at a rehad assignment, showers his minor league teammates with a great meal and gifts.
   One of the teenage shooters from the Chiefs parade has been released to home confinement.  But it's ok, his mom says she's going to discipline him.
  And you won't believe how many federal arrest crimes are committed by non-citizens in America.  This is the most incredible stat you will hear this year.
 

Other Nations Love Biden, Summer of Interruption, X is Top News Service, Royals Event Staff Shines, Mavs Star Ripped, Spags Rules

   A new study of people in 34 countries shows those nations overwhelmingly support Biden over Trump.  The reason is simple, they know who's handing them cash and caving into the One World philosophy and they benefit from America.  This should be THE reason any undecided voter should swing to Trump.
  It's the summer of interruption as a bunch of climate freaks charge the field at the Congressional game in DC.  Are they going to get prosecuted like the J6 folks?
   A survey of users proves that more people gather news on X than they do on other social platforms.  And in a complete 180 degree turn from just a couple years ago, Democrats are more likely to say the platform is inaccurate or unfair.  That was fast.
   We went to the Royals game Wednesday and KC was awful.  Your humble host lost his debit card for about an hour and you won't believe how incredible the staff was at Kauffman Stadium to help me find it.
  Luka Doncic is a huge star for the Dallas Mavericks but as his team is down 3-0 in the Finals, he's been blamed for all of it.  You have to hear this cut from ESPN.
   And Spags is the star of Chiefs mandatory mini camp as he tosses cold water on his defensive players to sober them up about the reality of what is ahead.  This is awesome.

Joey Can't Eat, Yankees Expose R's, USGA Botches US Open, Mayor Q's Big Lie, Hunter Guilty of Worse, George Loses Mind, Sportsradio Loses Another

   Say it ain't so, Joe.  Joey Chestnut will not be allowed to compete in the Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest at Coney Island.  Is nothing sacred anymore?
   The Yankees are just toying with the Royals as once again it's feeling like KC's season is on the brink this week.  Meanwhile, pitcher Trevor Bauer is reportedly making a comeback and it's not with the Royals.
   The USGA has to be the worst governing body to ever host a sporting event as demonstrated by this year's US Open.  Well... maybe women's Olympic basketball is dumber.  Maybe.
  Mayor Q is usually really good at deception but when it comes to stadium issues, he's moved on to flat out telling lies.  Hunter Biden is guilty of a lot more than those three gun charges.  ABC's main anchor has lost his mind with Trump Derangement Syndrome and another sports radio host in KC is calling it quits.

Speech Defines Greatness, Yankees Are Pretty Good, Porter Jr Goes Viral, Pelosi Caught on Tape, Mayor Q Loves Kansas, Trump on Tay Tay

   Sometimes it takes a champion to define greatness and that's what we got out of another great commencement speech, this one from tennis great Roger Federer.  His words were great for the grads and great for sports fans to remember.  We'll play it for you.
   It ties right in with the Royals loss to the Yankees as we all just saw with our own eyes the Yankees are pretty good.
   NBA star Michael Porter Jr's comments about Caitlin Clark and trans athletes is going viral apparently for being so obviously normal.
   Nancy Pelosi was caught on tape January 6 taking responsibility for not having the National Guard ready to go.  Well, that should be big news.
  Mayor Q says he loves Kansas and keeping our sports teams there would be just fine... what a fraud this guy is.
   And Donald Trump has some interesting comments about Taylor Swift in a new book that's coming out.

No Tax on Tips, Bannon on Fire, Royals Host Yankees, Caitlin Left Out, History at Iowa Speedway

  We start your week right with a couple pick you up stories like Donald Trump wanting to eliminate taxes for service industry workers and Steve Bannon going viral with a smack down video for 2024.
   The Royals win two of three and now host the Yankees for four.  Caitlin Clark is shut out of the Olympics in the dumbest sports decision in history.  The Celtics coach is not only up 2-0 in the NBA Finals he's crushing every news conference with short sentences about what's really important.  Scotty Scheffler wins on the PGA Tour.
  Kyle Larson picks up his third win of the Cup season as history is about to made in Iowa.  Iowa Speedway President Eric Peterson is a native Kansan who worked at Kansas Speedway and then NASCAR before taking over the track a few months ago.  His first order of business was to prepare the speedway for this week's Iowa Corn 350, the first Cup race ever in Iowa.   He joins us for a great conversation.

Fun Friday Returns, Disney Caves to DeSantis, Royals Save Season Again, Chiefs Player Collapses, Bat Cats Two Wins Away, NBA Flops

   Fun Friday returns as KKHI holds the promise of laughter and positivity throughout the episode.  Yes, there will be a story or two that's a bit serious but we'll keep those brief and work our way back into the fun zone.  
   We have lots of winning, too.  DeSantis beats Disney, the Royals somehow beat the Gaurdians and K-State baseball is two wins away from the college World Series.
   The NBA Finals see the Celtics take game one and Morgan Wallen makes our Final Final.  Hit that play button for some Friday fun!

VP Matters This Time, Barr Calls Dems Crazy, Old School Job Site, Mo Lawmakers Hot Air, Kelce Almost Tased?, Former Chief Snubbed

  You've heard it a thousand times, the VP selection doesn't really matter.  This time it does, with both candidates and I'll explain why this is unprecedented.
   Former AG William Barr unloads on the sham convictions against Donald Trump calling it "crazy" that Trump cannot defend himself and completely unfair to voters.
   There's an old school job site in my neighborhood that over the course of several days got me to do a complete 180.  What was I thinking?
   Missouri lawmakers say the Chiefs are Missouri's team and they aren't going anywhere.  If we know one thing, Missouri lawmakers have always valued baseball teams over football teams.  Who are they kidding?
   Did Travis Kelce almost get tased?  He's telling a great story.  Patrick Mahomes likes coffee and now drinks it for money and a former Chief is snubbed  in HOF voting.

Royals Gag Game 1, KS Luring Chiefs, Cassel to NBC, Fading Joe Whispers, Bullet Holes in KC, Texas Stock Exchange, Magnet Fishing Pays Off

   Yes, the Royals are fun this year and much better.  It's also true that they are not ready to be among baseball's elite teams as we saw in game one against Cleveland when the Royals just gagged away their best shot to make a statement.
   Kansas Republicans send a perfect letter to Chiefs owner Clark Hunt with an offer he can't refuse for a new stadium.  IF the bond issue passes during a special session June 18, it will be full speed ahead for the Chiefs to relocate to the Sunflower State with the best offer any NFL owner ever received. 
  Former Chiefs QB Matt Cassel has a sweet new gig at NBC.
   Joe Biden's state of mind is fading fast and now media outlets on the left are all over him.  It feels like the beginning of the end as Joe Biden has taken a day off.... in France.
   A listener sent me a fantastic email about bullet holes in KC after shots ring out near his business in the west bottoms. You have to hear this.
   Texas is getting its own stock exchange to compete with and possibly obliterate, the NYSE and NASDAQ.
    The Beagle killing researchers are given a record fine by the DOJ that should put them out of business and a magnet fisherman makes a big catch.  Yes, magnet fishing.

News Cycle Flips, Fauci Exposed, Hunter Hates Step Mom, Royals Huge Series is Here, Mahomes Spare Cash, McAfee Apologizes

   It's unreal how quickly the news cycle changes for President Trump.  Just a couple days after he's convicted of 34 felonies, it's his appearance at UFC, somebody else's trial and Fauci getting scorched on Cap Hill making all the headlines.  America seems to have already decided those felonies are a joke.
   The Royals are finally playing the Cleveland Guardians and we are about to find out if KC is a contender or not.  These three games will be tough as Cleveland just won 9 straight at home before losing Sunday.  We will break down the matchup.
   A listener shared an email with me about playing golf alone last week when a single from behind him joined in.  That solo player was Patrick Mahomes.  
   Pat McAfee apologies for calling Caitlin Clark a bad name and our Final-Final is an incredible story from the sea.
 

Royals Get Huge Win, KSU in Sweet 16, Big Slick Scores Big, Caitlin Targeted by Racists, MO Candidate Uses Chiefs, Fan Becomes Caddy

   If you felt like the entire season was on the line for the Royals Sunday, you weren't alone.  And when it looked most bleak it was a pinch hitter in the bottom of the 9th that delivered the biggest hit of the season.  This was NOT just another game.
  In college baseball, Kansas State goes 3-0 in the Arkansas regional to advance to the Super Regional this week.  Just 16 teams remain and if the Cats can win a series against Virginia, they will go to Omaha for the College World Series.
   The Big Slick folks crushed it raising $4 million this weekend.  Racism is all over the place in the WNBA in both actions and words.  A candidate for Missouri Secretary of State says the Chiefs are on board with her not supporting Pride month.  
   And a fan is pulled out of the gallery on the PGA tour to become part of the action.
