163.433 - 187.206 Matt Jones

Welcome, everyone. It is Kentucky Sports Radio Tuesday, May the 12th. I'm Matt Jones on another sunny day in the 70s here in Lexington, Kentucky. Give us a shout at Clark's Pump and Shop phone line. You know what the number is. We're not opening it yet, but we will in just a little bit. 859-280-2287. I'm encouraging people today, Shannon, to call who maybe haven't called before.

187.406 - 191.432 Matt Jones

I'm going to put on my best version of polite Matt today.

191.513 - 192.754 Ryan

Oh, okay.

193.295 - 201.067 Matt Jones

So a lot of hoo-ahs then. I would like to have a lot of hoo-ahs, but also even if it's not a first time, I'm just going to be polite today.

201.087 - 206.556 Ryan

Wow. You think you can do that for two hours? That's a big ask. Yeah!

Chapter 3: Why are rugs so expensive and how do they impact home decor?

216.893 - 242.825 Matt Jones

Drew, good to see you. I spent all day yesterday dealing with furniture. which is not something I've ever done before. And when did somebody tell me that, you know, this stuff is expensive? Very expensive. Especially when, because I kind of were in your boat, getting a new house and not having much to move into it, and you're having to furnish a whole house.

0

243.346 - 250.813 Matt Jones

Whatever you had in the budget, it's more. It's going to be more. People have asked me, they're like, well, don't you have stuff? But Shannon, I have the same things I've had since I was like 22.

0

250.793 - 273.606 Matt Jones

oh you know how people upgrade as they get older yeah i never did that so you're sleeping on like the same college couch that you had i still have a twin bed in one in a little twin bed i'm not kidding it's got little race cars on it yeah you're a little well until just recently i had a uk blanket Sounds like you need some twins.

0

273.626 - 296.643 Matt Jones

Now, the Lexington place was a little... So the point is, I have to furnish it from scratch, and I knew I couldn't do that. So I hired a designer, and she's wonderful. But I realized, Shannon, like, I don't want to do the minutiae here, right? So I said, so my mom has been like, I would like to help you. I don't want anything to do this summer. And I thought, well, this is perfect, right?

0

297.224 - 327.148 Matt Jones

Her, my mom, you guys do. Not you. Not me. And I said, the best thing you can do for me, mom, is like, just let me at the end go yes or no, but that's it. And she said yes. And I was like, no, seriously, Shannon. I'll just say yes or no. So we had the yes or no moment. And the thing is, the woman picked out great stuff. She and my mom, they've done a wonderful job.

327.168 - 334.102 Matt Jones

But then they'll say things to you, Shannon, like, okay. Now, here are the end table choices, and they show four.

Chapter 4: What insights are shared about the Kentucky basketball roster?

334.523 - 349.443 Matt Jones

And my mom will have a strong opinion about one. She was like, no, I hate this one. I was like, all right, well, then don't get that one. She goes, but you need to pick what you want. And I don't care. I really don't. But I don't care. Do you have strong opinions about end tables?

0

349.463 - 354.55 Ryan

I mean, if you gave me multiple choice, I would. Yes. Yeah, if you gave me four, I would say I want this one.

0

354.57 - 380.02 Matt Jones

I'm just like, don't get the one that when my mom or someone comes in, they go, ooh, right? Just get it. But I want to have his little thing. But here's what I didn't realize. I said this to you off the air yesterday. Rugs. Oh, man. Oh, yeah. I got a rug. How are rugs so expensive? We should have been in the rug business. Shannon, I should have started Kentucky Rug Radio. Kentucky Sports Rug.

0

380.701 - 390.133 Matt Jones

Yeah, there you go. It's got the name. I can keep the same initials. Exactly. If you had asked me, what do you think a rug costs? Mm-hmm.

0

Chapter 5: How does the discussion shift to coaching strategies in college sports?

391.227 - 405.996 Matt Jones

I'm not going to tell you what I paid for this rug, but I would have assumed significantly less. Why are rugs so expensive? I don't know. Big rug is taking advantage of us, though. I just had to buy one recently, too.

0

406.263 - 429.351 Matt Jones

presumably shannon that's on the ground yeah exactly like that's the thing have you ever noticed a rug when you go in someone's house have you ever noticed a rug rug's important it ties the room together you gotta have the right kind of rug so when you go to visit your friends yeah i'm judging your rug are you like you're doing a great job with this rug rug looks good like the color scheme looks great it all flows seamlessly i've never looked at a rug

0

429.331 - 451.07 Matt Jones

Or like, hey man, I need to talk to you, dude. That rug's just kind of clashing with your end table. See, this is why I needed the designer in my mom, because I don't want Shannon coming over and ragging on my rug. Why don't Shannon and I go to your house and we'll judge the rug? We'll shoot you straight on your rug. I just had no idea. What the rug cost. So I have to do like six rooms.

0

452.151 - 468.01 Matt Jones

We did like four. And the price was about what I thought it would be. But when I looked at the breakdown of what costs what, I would have never imagined that the most expensive thing in there was the rug. I never would have imagined that, ever.

0

468.231 - 471.435 Ryan

Even like a little small area rug can cost easily $400.

471.775 - 490.967 Matt Jones

So who decided this? Why are they so expensive? What is it about Big Rug that is making, because presumably you would think you could put anything down. Yeah. But no, you cannot. I don't know. Also, when you get it, you got to remember, you can't be spilling things on it. You're going to vacuum it. No. You're going to keep it clean. Yeah.

Chapter 6: What are the implications of the UofL series on future games?

490.987 - 492.81 Matt Jones

I mean, this is one of your most valuable possessions.

0

492.91 - 493.731 Unknown

You can't just be trampling it.

0

493.751 - 503.644 Matt Jones

This is next to my car in the house. The most expensive thing I'm going to own is this rug. I guess I'm just going to wallow in it.

0

504.025 - 506.031 Shannon

You don't have to get the most expensive rug.

0

506.432 - 527.133 Matt Jones

I know, but I don't want to start. You don't want to go cheap on a new house, especially a nice house like yours. You know how back in the day they had that famous moment when George Bush, the older one, he went to the grocery store and he was showing he was a common man by buying groceries, and then he was surprised that they had a scanner?

527.833 - 528.754 Ryan

Yeah, like, what is this thing?

529.235 - 544.472 Matt Jones

And he was like, well, this is something else. And it was kind of like showing he was out of touch. So... I kind of have an idea of what everyday items cost, but because I've not bought nice things,

544.975 - 572.063 Matt Jones

my entire life really because i got the cheapest couches at the beginning and all that i just had no idea what things cost so as i gave them a budget shannon i was like as long as it's in this then you distribute it how you want i just didn't know how much was going to big rug it's a big difference between furniture at like a nice place versus like craigslist you get two different because i was used to craigslist i was used to just trading couches with people on the street oh it's garage sale weekend in south lexington coming up you could go what does that mean

572.043 - 587.752 Matt Jones

A lot of neighborhoods do it all on the same day. There's an official garage sale weekend? In some neighborhoods, they coordinate. So what neighborhood is this? I don't know. My friends were telling me about it last night. Mine was last weekend, so it's a little too late for you to come visit my side of town. Oh, I can come and maybe look for a rug? I don't participate.

Chapter 7: How do listeners react to the hosts' opinions on sports?

599.25 - 601.332 Unknown

It's 127 or something like that.

0

601.873 - 631.291 Matt Jones

And they go from Lexington down in the mountains, right? You've got to send your mom and your designer and hit all that up. See, but I don't want to do any of those things. I just have to tell you, it's been a good welcoming, Shannon, to how... The more I become an adult in my mid-40s. Being an adult is expensive. You realize, like, I don't know. The world's too expensive. Facebook Marketplace.

0

631.311 - 642.846 Matt Jones

I've got all kinds of great rugs for you. $75. Well, that's a little less than I think. Here's one for 30. Here's one for 30. Nearby. But it's got to have stains on it.

0

642.986 - 643.807 Unknown

What's that smell like?

0

644.028 - 666.242 Matt Jones

Great looking rug right there. No, that's not my rug. Wait until you see how it ties everything together when you get in there. You're going to be really impressed with how it all is done. Do you have all your kitchen stuff in there? I know you're a big cook. Like that's the one thing I had one time, I think for my like 40th birthday, my mom bought me all the kitchen stuff you need. Okay.

666.823 - 676.798 Matt Jones

And so, uh, that I have, do you know what to do with it? Yeah. I mean, I mean, I don't use it. Yeah.

Chapter 8: What is the significance of the upcoming yard sale event?

676.939 - 695.969 Matt Jones

I mean, obviously I want to, because now I'm going to have like a nice, what's that thing that's over your stove air event. People say mine's really nice. They're like, oh, that's really nice. But I don't know what it is. I don't know why it's nice. When you're cooking on your stove, that helps the ventilation get it out of there.

0

696.59 - 709.292 Matt Jones

When you're making a nice steak for us on the cast iron skillet, that'll help. I'm going to have you all over at the end of the summer when it's fully put together. Are you cooking? No, I'll probably have to have someone help with that.

0

709.312 - 710.674 Ryan

His personal chef will be there.

0

710.654 - 721.785 Matt Jones

No, shut up. I'm not stepping on the rug. I'm walking around it. Okay, but yes, I was going to say, do not spill anything on that rug. A lid on my drink, and I'm walking around the rug. Ryan's not even allowed in the same room as the rug.

0

721.805 - 725.049 Ryan

No, wow. He doesn't even get that privilege. Yeah.

725.069 - 737.682 Matt Jones

All right, so yesterday, Pope did. That was his last one video? Yeah, I think he did. Because he seemed to be like, this was fun. Yeah, see you later. It seemed like he was signing off. He was like, Pope out.

737.702 - 738.062 Unknown

Yeah.

738.346 - 763.054 Matt Jones

And in the video, answered some questions. He answered the question of who among the staff talks to the agents, and he said the assistant coaches. So it's clear, like, Pope is bucking the this is how everybody else does it system, and he's very clear. Like, no, it's our coaches doing it. We don't have, like, a fixer.

764.502 - 782.589 Matt Jones

I disagree with that, but he's the coach, so he needs to do it the way he wants, but now we at least know how that works. Yeah, like you, I disagree a little bit. I wish they had someone in there with new ideas and to help take all that on because everything's changed, but I also can't just sit here and cry about it every day because he's made it clear that's how they're going to move forward.
