Chapter 2: What insights does Blair Kerkhoff share about the Kansas City Royals?

50.031 - 76.174 Blair Kerkhoff

They're the best. Art and Frame Warehouse. FrameKC.com. Locally owned and operated for more than 25 years, Blair. Don't try to say 20, because I'll quickly correct you. 25. 25 plus. 25. 92nd and Metcalf. Michael and his staff are great. Great customer service. They are true artists. They deliver and install everything 100%. Lifetime guarantee. They've only had to honor that once. One time.

0

77.035 - 95.3 Blair Kerkhoff

I almost want something to break. Michael! I'm the second! One time they've had to honor that. So I think it's great. They're great people. Go see them. Art and Frame Warehouse. FrameKC.com. Tell them Petra sent you. Blair, how are you? Doing great. What the hell are you doing in here on a Tuesday? Do you not have calendars at your place?

Chapter 3: How do old baseball uniforms influence team identity?

95.44 - 96.863 Blair Kerkhoff

That's what I want to know.

0

97.284 - 100.491 Curtis

No, no. I'm just following the old guy.

0

101.129 - 115.056 Blair Kerkhoff

Oh, take your pick. Is it Pete? Is it Frank? We don't know. We don't know. I heard it's because Sam McDowell is soft. Yeah. Soft. Soft. Soft.

0

115.076 - 121.788 Curtis

He's soft. He doesn't guard. Now, we're hoping for a speedy recovery for Sam.

0

121.808 - 124.432 Blair Kerkhoff

Ah, yeah, Sam, strep throat, as I understand.

124.452 - 130.502 Curtis

A little under the weather, so I guess he'll appear on Thursday if he's feeling better.

130.522 - 132.365 Blair Kerkhoff

Yeah, we appreciate you guys working together.

132.405 - 133.086 Curtis

Yeah.

133.206 - 153.107 Blair Kerkhoff

You know, enemies by day, working together at night. I know how cutthroat it is in that newspaper business. Mm-hmm. You guys stabbing each other in the back all the time. But here it was, you put those differences aside and said, okay, well, flip-flop days. Why not? Who really, who gave? Was it you or was it him, really?

Chapter 4: What are the unique state slogans discussed in the episode?

172.721 - 179.011 Blair Kerkhoff

I just thought we'd start with you the way we started with Frank. Frank took us down that road. It's a good movie. The Michael Jackson movie?

0

179.532 - 180.093 Curtis

Oh, no, no.

0

180.413 - 184.019 Blair Kerkhoff

I haven't seen it. Actually, I think I took us there by mentioning Miles Teller.

0

184.1 - 185.963 Unknown

It's about the former Browns wide receiver.

0

186.323 - 202.324 Blair Kerkhoff

Yeah, Michael Jackson. The only guy wearing number one in the league for a while at a skilled position because the Browns somehow had retired all their 80s and the others were in use, so he got to wear one. When everybody freaked out. What?

202.765 - 207.913 Unknown

Now you see an 80, you're like, that guy ain't making the team. Yeah. Like in the preseason.

207.953 - 210.277 Blair Kerkhoff

Is that a 1967 defensive lineman? What is that?

210.297 - 224.338 Unknown

In the preseason, whenever you see a wideout who's wearing number 80 for the Chiefs, I'm going, he's probably getting cut. And Nico Remigio managed to make it, but that's just not what they wear anymore. Now you don't know what anything is other than the quarterback.

224.619 - 227.844 Curtis

I didn't know there was a Michael Jackson movie. So there is.

Chapter 5: How does the Big 12 compare to other college conferences?

265.584 - 266.005 Curtis

We might have.

0

266.105 - 267.788 Unknown

And then everyone lived happily ever after.

0

268.128 - 276.221 Blair Kerkhoff

Like the second billing is not the guy who played Macaulay Culkin. Okay. Okay.

0

276.241 - 276.582 Curtis

Yeah.

0

277.203 - 284.375 Unknown

Just, you know. Michael, the good stuff. Michael. Michael, the way you wish it were.

285.917 - 295.313 Blair Kerkhoff

I don't know. Maybe it's 100% accurate and there's a bunch of haters. I can see a scenario where they portray him as being a different cat.

295.293 - 299.64 Unknown

There's no doubt about that. In honor of the late Tom Kane.

299.921 - 301.603 Blair Kerkhoff

Michael, in theaters June 1st.

302.304 - 302.905 Unknown

The good stuff.

Chapter 6: What are the implications of recent changes in college football?

405.822 - 422.44 Blair Kerkhoff

Oh, look, that house is the psychology department. Oh, look, that building there is the humanities. Oh, look, this random house here is the Fiedel house. You're just kind of like, oh. It is different.

0

422.56 - 423.481 Curtis

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

0

423.501 - 429.446 Blair Kerkhoff

It's in the old, old downtown of Charleston, and it's pretty wild.

0

429.466 - 430.367 Curtis

You've covered a lot of ground.

0

430.407 - 465.539 Blair Kerkhoff

Landed in Atlanta, drove to Athens, toured Georgia Tuesday morning, flew down Monday, drove to Athens, which, by the way, just like... About an hour and a half. Look, I know it's been a long time. But I know why the South lost. Okay? And part of it is called roads. They ain't got them. Um... You'd think you'd go from Atlanta to the University of Georgia with, like, 40,000 students.

465.98 - 468.883 Curtis

On a nice, open, like, six-lane road. Yes!

469.184 - 476.793 Blair Kerkhoff

No, no, no, no, no. No! No. You are on a two-lane country road for a part. Like, how do they do game day?

476.833 - 479.076 Curtis

Well, and then switching roads. Oh, Jesus, yes.

479.156 - 490.05 Blair Kerkhoff

Yeah, there's no straight shot. I'm like, you've got to be kidding me. Like, you're like, oh, where's the K-10? Yeah, right. You know, like, we figured it out here. I-70. No, they have not...

Chapter 7: How does Texas Tech's performance impact the Big 12?

586.179 - 607.359 Blair Kerkhoff

Let them live. Like, whoa. I'm already hitting the brake here. I don't have to call me a murderer, you know. I prefer... Let them work, let them live, you heartless... That's how I read that sign. Let them work, let them live, for God's sake. I prefer... Just let them live.

0

607.479 - 613.391 Curtis

Land of enchantment. That's my... That's mine. The New Mexico license plate.

0

613.411 - 626.708 Blair Kerkhoff

Oh, is that what it is? Land of enchantment. Should be land of UFOs. North Carolina is what, first in flight? First in flight because of the Wright brothers. And Kansas has now decided they're to the stars.

0

628.574 - 643.27 Blair Kerkhoff

Am I missing the connection on how Kansas is to the stars? I think literally they were like, oh, everyone's got a slogan. We've got to come up with one. I know, Bob. How about to the stars? That's an excellent idea, Murray.

643.39 - 649.456 Unknown

Let's do it. I guess the Latin, it's ad astra per aspera.

649.536 - 652.939 Curtis

To the stars through difficulties. Yeah, with difficulty.

652.999 - 671.255 Blair Kerkhoff

We'll just leave the difficulty part off. We're trying to sell the state. Not make it sound like we can't get to where we want to go. By the way, I already knew that, because when I was making fun of the license plate on the drive back from the airport, my oldest daughter's like, well, Dad, it's on the flag.

673.458 - 679.465 Unknown

Dad, just have a moment for a funny. Missouri says, let the welfare of the people be the supreme law. That's catchy.

Chapter 8: What role does revenue play in the success of college sports?

692.497 - 697.625 Blair Kerkhoff

Let the welfare of the people be the supreme law. Boy, there's a t-shirt, huh?

0

697.765 - 706.077 Unknown

That one came out in 1822. Put that in a heart.

0

706.097 - 721.761 Blair Kerkhoff

It narrowly beat out slaves, sure. Yeah, why not? They were on that side, am I wrong? How come everybody put their head in their hands when I fired that one out?

0

722.298 - 735.555 Unknown

Am I the only one who read the history books? Yep. Well, for now. Slaves. Why not? It was called abolition. Not so much.

0

739.5 - 746.849 Blair Kerkhoff

Blair doesn't even want to be on the record as laughing. He's turning his head away so you can't hear him laugh.

749.212 - 766.571 Unknown

I'll take you off the stream, Blair. Man, there are some mottos that don't really... I mean, they're so old, it's just like... What do we got? We're doing so well with these.

766.611 - 768.434 Blair Kerkhoff

May the force be with you. Who came up with that one?

769.496 - 797.313 Unknown

May the 14th stars shine bright. That's Vermont. They were the 14th state? Ready in soul and resource. And also, while I breathe, I hope. That's South Carolina. Well, I breathe. I hope. I hope. Because reality blows. I hope I breathe again. Yeah, later it's just, I breathe, I hope. She flies with her own wings. Oregon. Okay. Oklahoma. Labor conquers all things.

797.933 - 801.158 Unknown

Get back to work is what I hear there.
