Trump Guilty Reax Shines Light, Dem Donor Switches Support, Chiefs OTA's Focus on New Style, Congrats Nate Bukaty, Ballard Center's Remarkable Story

   If you're asking how serious the guilty verdict is for Donald Trump just take a look at what happened after it was announced.  The reaction shines a light on how un-serious this trial was.
   A Democrat mega donor has had enough and is willing to lose friends over switching his money and support to Trump after this.
  The Chiefs OTA focus is new plays for the offense and a new style for special teams.
   Congrats are in order for Nate Bukaty who's ending his full time gig on Sports Radio 810 to live his dream of calling a bigger slate of soccer matches on tv.
   And you have to hear a story today from Kyle Roggenkamp, the CEO of www.ballardcenter.org. He is personally an inspiration and he's about to tell you about the single great foster care/adoption story ever in our area. 

Lugo's Huge Win, Overreaction to Chiefs, Frank Martin Tells KK Story, Goff Gets New Deal, Kelce Wants in Happy 2, Trump Jury Confused, Driver's Court Zoom Fail

   It's only one of 162 games until its not.  With the possibility of getting swept in a four game series and falling to third place by the end of the week, Seth Lugo stood tall without his best stuff and delivered the most important single game performance by any Royal this year.
   Another Chiefs player (one you've never heard of) is in trouble and we don't like that it involves dog abuse.  But there is a huge overreaction taking place to the Chiefs off season news.
    Former KSU and now UMASS basketball coach Frank Martin was on the "3MAW" podcast a couple weeks ago and busted out a story about yours truly that really made him mad.   We'll play it for you.  It's all true.
   KU Athletic Director Travis Goff gets a new contract.  Travis Kelce wants a contract to be in a golf movie.  Trump's jury is totally confused and a man doing a zoom appearance for a judge after his license was taking away does an unbelievably stupid thing.

Sports Radio Fading Fast, Announcer Gets Fired, De Niro Melts Down, TKC's Guide to Stay Alive, Royals are Clutch-less, Caitlin Pops for 30

   Two new studies show a mass migration from radio to podcasting and the biggest losers seem to be AM sports radio stations.  But these stations are doing absolutely nothing to help themselves as they've become stale, stat driven and safe.  In other words, the total opposite of online content. 
   We take a deep dive into sports talk as an announcer is fired after some hot mic comments were put out over the internet by 810 Varsity.  Toby Moore was just being real and that's a No-No with these folks.  I mean, you can literally lose your voice and stay on the air as long as you just keep saying a bunch of safe, liberal platitudes even though your audience is decidedly conservative.  It's just crazy. 
  Robert De Niro has a fun meltdown outside the Trump courtroom that was as real as real gets.  It's not reading movie lines off a script and this gangster failed miserably.
   www.tonyskansascity.com is real in every way and has published a piece that's just brilliant.  It's a guide on how to not get shot and killed in Kansas City.  Now we are talking.
   Three games, three losses and three games where the Royals can't deliver in the clutch.  These 9th inning, almost won the game moments are piling up.
  Caitlin Clark pops for 30 in the WNBA but our Final Final is about another female pro athlete I've decided to follow on X for all the wrong reasons.  Except she's real. 

Holiday Weekend Gaffes, Norborne MO Wins Big, R's Big Series, Pathetic Comedian Attacks Butker, Remembering Bill Walton, KC Mavs in Finals

   The long holiday weekend was filled with gaffes from, you guessed it, the usual suspects.  From Biden and Harris memorializing George Floyd to squad members thinking it was Veterans Day, the hits just keep coming.
   Trump spent the weekend working for votes and gearing up for closing arguments in his trial in NYC.
   Our friends in Norborne, Missouri win big after many of you voted for them to win a national contest.
   The Royals have three huge games left against the Twins this week and it feels like there is a lot on the line.
   Unfunny Chelsea Handler attacks Harrison Butker in a really sad and pathetic way.  Bill Walton dies at age 71 and I'll share a couple stories from having him on my show.  And the Kansas City Mavericks have made it to the Kelly Cup Hockey Finals beginning Friday.

KKHI Special: Ryan Lefebvre on Red Hot Royals

   As we gear up for Memorial Day weekend, we touch on a couple headlines before the Voice of Summer joins us from Tampa and the start of the road trip for the Royals.
   Ryan Lefebvre tells us it's no longer too early to believe in these Royals and we cover it all for you.  The Royals have the best starting pitching we can ever remember, a Hall of Famer and the most respected player in the game with Salvador Perez and maybe the most valuable commodity in the game in Bobby Witt Jr.  Oh, this is getting real alright and you're going to love this discussion with our friend Ryno.
 

Free Speech (Sort of) Accepted at Arrowhead, Trump Now Huge Vegas Fave, CNN Lowest Since 1991, Royals Sweep Homestand, Herbstreit on Corso Feels Good, Pot Use Way Up

   Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid defended Harrison Butker's right to say whatever he wants about his faith and politics but stopped short of saying they agree.   While leftist reporters were asking about "women in the workforce" which is not what Butker was talking about, they failed to ask the simplest question of either men: "Is it more gratifying to win a trophy and make a ton of money or more gratifying to raise your children?"  And let's not forget the free speech policy at Arrowhead only applies to things like religion and riots and such, don't ever speak negatively about coach or owner or you're toast.
   Vegas has odds out on the race for Prez and Trump is now a huge favorite.
   CNN reaches it's lowest ratings in over 30 years as they have no idea how to fix their problems.
   The Royals sweep a homestand behind incredible starting pitching, especially Cole Ragans.  Forget all the advanced metrics, I've got one stat (nugget) for you that is all you need to know.
   Kirk Herbstreit of College Gameday shares a heartwarming story about his relationship with Lee Corso, NBA ratings are almost as bad as CNN's and daily marijuana use is at an all time high as it's more popular than alcohol now.
 
    

Desperate Dems Panicking, Mar A Lago Deadly Force Raid, NY Judge Openly Unfair, BW Jr's Big Tuesday, Spx Authority New Boss, WR Rice Catches Break

   Desperate Dems are moving on to a new battle cry ahead of November's election.  They know Trump is coming for them if he wins, just as they have gone after him.  So they are using the term, "every American" should be worried Trump will come after you.  What they really mean is they're terrified to actually be held accountable.
   This of course comes at the same time we learned Joe Biden's DOJ authorized "deadly force" in the raid of Mar A Lago inn 2022.  A sitting president authorized deadly force against a former president and future opponent in the USA.  Not Cuba, not Russia, not China.  The USA.
   Experts agree the judge in the NY trial is openly unfair and that if this were on tv, he couldn't get away with it.  
   Bobby Witt Jr started his day with grade school kids before schooling the Tigers on Tuesday night.  What a player the Royals have.
   The Jackson County Sports Complex Authority has a new boss lined up and Chiefs receiver Rashee Rice catches a break in Dallas.
 

Veepstakes in Focus, CNN Mocks Star Witness, Andy Reid Feature Kind of Sad, Chris Jones Striptease, Royals Roll Again, Caitlin Melts Down

   It's anybody's guess who Trump will pick to run with him as VP but we've got an audio clip from one of the contenders that's worthy of your consideration.
   Even CNN is making fun of the star witness in the NY Trump trial as Anderson Cooper can't stop laughing at Michael Cohen.
  Vahe Gregorian of the KC Star is a talented feature writer and he's dialed up a beauty on Andy Reid.  But between the fun information and laughs this story provides, there's a little uneasy sadness to it.
   Chris Jones is learning how to be a stripper.... but it's not what you think.  The Royals roll the Tigers with a huge 6th inning and Caitlin Clark melts down and costs her team a game.
 

Royals Blister A's, Xander Spins to Win, Chiefs Lineman Arrested, Biden's Hate Speech, Seinfeld Heckled, Team Smile Serves Thousands

   The Royas rolled past the Oakland A's in a three game sweep this weekend and looked every bit like a  post season team in doing it.  KC is now ten games over .500 for the first time since.... well... you probably remember.
   Golfer Xander Schauffele wins his first major at the PGA Championship in Louisville and need a little good fortune on the last hole to get it done.
   A couple Chiefs linemen are popped for marijuana arrests... is this still a thing?
   Joe Biden gives a dark, hate filled commencement speech at a black college in Alabama that is an absolutely horrible message to the graduates.
   Jerry Seinfeld is heckled by a terrorist supporter and we're raising money today for an incredible charity called www.teamsmile.org and would be honored if you'd like to pitch in.
 
 

Scheffler Arrested During Chaos, Butker Reaction is Exclusionary, R's 2014 Weekend, Caitlin Ticket Giveaway, Golf Course Wants $7m, Jax Co GOP Rallying,

   It was total chaos Friday morning in Louisville at the PGA Championship pre-dawn in pouring rain as a shuttle bus hit a pedestrian that was killed.   50 police cars respond and start to divert traffic as tens of thousands are arriving and golfers are going to the clubhouse.  Scottie Scheffler, the world's number one player, apparently drove past police improperly to enter and get ready for his round and was pulled over and arrested in handcuffs.  Holy smokes this is a wild one.
   Harrison Butker may have been the biggest sports story in America this week as the least diverse and inclusive people have attacked and started  a petition to have him fired.  Sam McDowell of the Star wrote a critical piece that Butker basically crapped his pants and now has to sit in it.  Hello?  Butker's jersey is number on in America this week with men AND women and is currently SOLD OUT.  These people after him do not know America at all.
   The Royals are having a 10 year reunion this weekend for the World Series team that fell to the Giants.
   Caitlin Clark was bad again in her home debut where tickets went for a measly $4.
   A golf course in KCMO wants $7million for a remodel, Jackson County Republicans are rallying and Michael Cohen gets caught telling another lie in court.
