I need to be reminded, sometimes, just how much I love baseball. Wednesday was that day as we traveled to Wrigley Field to watch the Cubs punk the Twins and then watched the Royals rock the Bosox on the flight home. What a day. At Chiefs camp, Harrison Butker met with the media and he was brilliant, as always. And the Chiefs are set to play the Jag…

Reports are circulating that Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro turned down Kamala Harris, just as we suggested earlier this week. It was a no win spot for Shapiro and it must be true because surely Kamala isn't really dumb enough to take Tim Walz. Tampon Tim is already a disaster. This is going to be fun the next three month watching this team fal…

Former ESPN sportscaster Hal Chapman "Trey" Wingo III is just as arrogant as his name for posting comments about the Chiefs and kicker Harrison Butker's new contract. You have to hear what this lib thinks happened here. It's comical. The Red Sox pound out 18 hits to beat the Royals in game one of a wild card playoff spot showdown leaving me with on…

Tuesday is primary election day in Missouri and Kansas and we'll offer up who's running in the biggest races. In national politics, a Kamala ally apparently leaked her VP choice this weekend. It's a clown show. Thanks to a listener, we're encouraging everyone to start a new trend supporting no tax on tips. Disgraced former coach Jon Gruden, dressed…

Here come the parody songs and they will be glorious. JD Vance, not Trump, nicknames Kamala Harris a chameleon and all due respect to Boy George, this is going to be a lot more fun that watching him dance. Even Don Lemon agrees she's a fraud and not at African American. You have to hear this. Olympic Boxing is taking the games to a place Britney Gr…

We've all been here before with Donald Trump as he seems to be in hot water for comments at the National Association of Black Journalists. But we know how this ends, so why feed into it? Then, we'll play a perfect bit for you on what the campaign should focus on with advertising and how to brand the Dem party. The final details of the sale of the C…

It's 96 degrees but it has nothing to do with Kamala wearing flip flops on her feet. Nope, she's wearing them on her collar as she's changing her positions on almost everything as she's now running for prez. What a fraud this campaign is already. Josh Hawley brought common sense to the Secret Service hearings and is demanding somebody, somewhere be…

Bobby Witt Jr has been called the "Face of Baseball" by an opposing manager and now declared more valuable than Shohei Ohtani or any other player by an opponents announcer. It's because we saw something Monday night we've never seen before... the greatest individual performance to close out the last two innings of a come from behind win. Here's one…

It was pretty clear watching the Olympics opening ceremony that the people in charge of the games don't like you and don't care if you watch. In the name of inclusivity, they are exposed as petty and hateful people trying to hurt you. NBC Sports falls short with some bizarre primetime Sunday night programming with Mike Tirico and completely unfunny…

It didn't take long for America to see the real Kamala Harris is fake. From an awkward staged fake phone call with the Obamas to a stunt gone wrong visit to a record shop to buy black music, Kamala is at her worst when we see her. Donald Trump is the total opposite as he has crushed it this week with dose after dose of "real" statements and actions…
  continue reading
 
Joe Biden's Oval Office speech was totally political even though his staff said it wouldn't be. Shocker. Dr. Jill is on the Harris train and it's full speed ahead to save America so we can keep funding wars, spend trillions to change the weather and pack the Supreme Court. Oh, it was quite a dud from the fat lipped slurry prez. Trump is now demandi…
  continue reading
 
Joe Biden will address the nation tonight and is reportedly going to tell us what's ahead the next 6 months and how he will finish the job. It's a little scary, but we gotta keep him in office until the election is over. Meanwhile, the Fake News are going silly over Kamala being the candidate and surely everyone can see this is made up. It's so pre…

Through four innings Monday night, Bobby Witt Jr only needed a single to hit for the cycle. So the Diamondbacks hit him with a pitch in the 6th. It was a crazy night at the K surrounding the hottest player in the game. Kamala Harris seems to have completed the coup and has $100 million in a war chest for her campaign against Donald Trump. By the wa…

It was our privilege to sit down with Kansas Senator Roger Marshall Sunday evening to discuss Biden pulling out of the race, whether Biden should resign and what's going on with the assassination investigation. We also have some eye popping new polling numbers, the Royals sweep the White Sox with great pitching and 9 hits from Bobby Witt Jr and Pat…

A report has exposed on national cable outlet that's been making it look like they are broadcasting from the Republican convention when in fact the whole show stayed in New York. We have some tremendous listener emails to share this week. Karen Crnkovich is a small business owner running in the GOP primary August 6 for the right to face off against…

It seems impossible five days after President Trump was shot the Democrats are somehow a bigger story than the Republican Convention. But at least on Wednesday, they were. Biden has Covid, Schiff wants him out, talking heads are breathing fire and Senators are chasing the Secret Service Director through the concourse of the arena looking for answer…
  continue reading
 
Second night speeches at the Republican National Convention hammer Democrat policies hard... really hard. We heard family members who have lost loved ones because of weak policy and high profile figures articulating solutions. In a change of pace, I'm going to give you the truth about what speeches landed and which speeches bombed. JD Vance is up W…

In his first public appearance since being shot on Saturday, President Trump owned Day one of the Republican National Convention. From naming JD Vance as his VP to forcing Joe Biden to offer more Secret Security on his detail and getting SS for RFK Jr, it's pretty clear Trump is completely in control of almost everything right now. Then he walk int…

After nine years of battering Donald Trump with impeachments, arrests, conviction, fines and the most vile political rhetoric of our lifetime, it's a logical conclusion that dirty politics led to an assassination attempt on the 45th president. But it is no time to be political. Perhaps the only person that seems to instinctively know this is Trump …

We've entered the TKO phase of Biden's campaign as he had a full day of events Thursday but the only thing anyone heard was him calling Zelensky "President Putin" and calling Kamala "Vice President Trump." What a clown show and while he may be digging in, they're doing research on whether the VP has a better shot at beating Trump. Mayor Q should pi…

After two hapless losses to the Rockies to start this long road trip before the All Star Break, the Royals have roared back after a double header sweep of the Cardinals in St. Louis. Is this team flawed? Absolutely. But holy smokes they are resilient. KU Quarterback Jalon Daniels took center stage at Big 12 media days in Las Vegas and proclaimed hi…

We have a great conversation with Dr. Prasanth Reddy who's running for the Kansas Third District seat currently held by Sharice Davids. www.reddyforkansas.com is his website and as a triple board certified cancer doctor and Lt. Colonel in the Air Force Reserves, he's uniquely qualified to talk about our troubling situation with Joe Biden. Before he…

It's obviously a very serious situation to have a president that can't do his job but the fact anything going forward with Joe Biden is really a discussion is comical. So leave it to one black pundit to sum it up perfectly and get us rollicking with laughter. Trump talks VP in an interview and it sounds like his best plan is to wait as long as poss…
  continue reading
 
Joe Biden's interview with ABC News wasn't as big of a disaster as the debate but it was a hot mess and now powerful Dems are asking the president to walk the plank. This is about to get very ugly. Donald Trump has remained presidential and quiet the past couple weeks... a good call for sure. Monday night he will do an interview with Sean Hannity a…
  continue reading
 
We start with a Happy Birthday salute to America and a fantastic audio clip from a baseball game that's about as America as it gets. You will love this. Bidenworld is collapsing as it's quite possible Tuesday was a worse day for our Prez than last Thursday. In the meantime, Trump just keeps winning everywhere. His sentencing next week is now delaye…

For 3 and a half years, Democrats have told us Joe Biden is sharp and on top of his game. So you know this is just a ruse that somehow they are in disbelief that debate performance happened last week. These people are the ultimate snake oil peddlers. An employee for Blue Cross in Tennessee wins a big lawsuit for losing her job over refusing a covid…

Many journos are reporting that what Barack Obama is saying publicly is completely different from what he actually wants. Obama wants Joe Biden out and an open convention this summer to pick a new candidate. Tucker Carlson is coming to KC this fall for a show at T-Mobile Center. Right now, he's wowing crowds in Australia and New Zealand and you hav…

It stinks to be right as Joe Biden and the Obama World machine that has ruled with an iron fist since 2008 have been completely exposed for the lying frauds they are. That includes their politicians, donors, media and big tech all covering and lying and cheating until they stayed with it just a little too long. The jig is up. Lying about Russia or …

It's debate night in America and CNN can't wait to be the network that silences Donald Trump by cutting off his microphone. But it's deeper than that as they are hoping he still talks and you can't hear him. I'll explain why they think this would be so powerful to negate him. In the least surprising story of 2024 in Kansas City, the overstuffed Wor…

The Chiefs announce with Hallmark Channel and the NFL that a movie will be filmed in KC this year called, "Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story." Let's hope I'm having a bad day or totally wrong because this is the off season news that has me worried about the Chiefs record this season. The Royals set a club record in a super disappointing loss t…
  continue reading
 
The one big lie has been played by Joe Biden and he's going to do it all the way to November. Trump needs to put an end to it with a powerful :30 second statement during the debate Thursday. We have the game plan. Missouri AG Andrew Bailey wins in court again with a ruling to stop Biden from forgiving student loans. Congresswoman Sharice Davids is …
  continue reading
 
The Royals are fading fast after a 2-7 road trip and another shutout loss on Sunday. KC is now 9 games back and if they don't find some offense soon we'll all be locking in on Chiefs training camp. Climate freaks take over a golf tournament on the last hole of the PGA Tour event just a couple days after some other freaks targeted Taylor Swift's air…

The president of Benedictine College finally addressed Harrison Butker's speech this week and it's the most brilliant opinion column I've read this year. I will share it and you will be lifted up. We have a couple positive, uplifting emails from terrific listeners to share with you proving once again this podcast audience is filled with the best am…

This episode is on Red Bull. First, what do you know? We have a new stadium plan/idea for the Royals in the West Bottoms, mostly in Kansas, just 48 hours after the STAR bond bill passes. Then, Patrick Tuohey from the Show Me Institute is our guest and it gets wild. For two conservative guys that hate taxes and government spending, we sure see this …
  continue reading
 
Reaction to Kansas lawmakers passing a bill to keep the Chiefs and Royals in Kansas City is comical at best. There is only one headline here.... Kansas Saves the Chiefs and Royals. That's right, we know they are not moving out of town now and we can stop talking about that possibility. So why are KCMO and Jackson County's failed leaders pissing and…
  continue reading
 
The left has invented a new term to try to change a game they invented. All these bad Biden videos they are calling "cheap fakes." These people invented the craft 15 years ago and now they hate it. Of course, the Biden videos aren't even edited but they're trying to convince voters its all fake. Kansas AG Kris Kobach has filed suit again Pfizer for…
  continue reading
 
Your humble host got quite a surprise this weekend and we'll share it with you. In Kansas, a special session opens this week to discuss lower taxes and STAR bonds to lure the Chiefs and/or the Royals. We have the details of the new bill that will be introduced. The Royals end the toughest stretch of this year's schedule with a loss to the Dodgers. …

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 wer…

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 …

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 wi…

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 Ya…
  continue reading
 
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 Ce…

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 fr…

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 …
  continue reading
 
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…
  continue reading
 
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 G…

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 t…
  continue reading
 
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 fo…
  continue reading
 
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 d…

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 fir…
