Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   The four year saga to build a new stadium in KC for the Royals was a blockbuster to watch and we all thought it ended with the big Crown Center announcement earlier this year.  Boy, were we wrong.  It ended with a Royals worker being arrested at a council meeting when it broke out into a free for all.  Hilarious.

   Penn State frat boys got busted running a drug ring and their leader's nickname is one for the ages.  

   The Minnesota award winner for "Refugee of the Year" is charged with 8 counts for fraud stealing millions fr...

   Always the eternal optimist, the official position at KKHI has been the that the midterms are in play for Republicans.  But your humble host is going to need a booster shot to keep believing.   Republicans don't seem interested in turning out as the war in Iran drags the party down.

   In Alaska, the dems are so good at elections they found a guy named Dan Sullivan to run against Senator Dan Sullivan in the primary in a ranked choice election.  This is NOT a joke.

   We got our first peak at the 2026 Chiefs on Saturday and as you might expect, it was a mixed bag.  Lots of sloppy play, one  player with a disappointing defensive performance and a couple guys on offense that turned heads.  It's a start and was nice to see football again.  One question... why are the Chiefs hyping Patrick Mahomes so much publicly?  The whole broadcast felt like an "oversell."

   You're going to need a bowl of popcorn to watch this one.... Steven A Smith of ESPN is given a thumbs down award from the National Association of Black Jou...

   What a shame the status of the brave men and women that serve on the USS Lincoln near Iran has turned into pure politics.  It stinks they've been at sea for 260 days, that's true.  It's also true this is what your sign up for and this is nowhere near the same as being on a battleship in World War II.  Now the left is using this ship as a political weapon against Republicans and that makes them the lowest of the low.

   There's a short list for new press secretary, we've got some thoughts.

   Andy Reid says...

   The sweetest White House Press Sectretary ever, Karoline Leavitt, is going home to her little kids to be a mom for now.  Great for her!  We discuss her incredible journey and future... and who may take the podium next.

   Cheers to Kennadi Fuhrman of DeSoto, Kansas for the being he first female ever to win the Patriot Games.  And wait until you hear how much she won for a scholarship!

   Ty Masterson posts a brutal takedown of opponent Cindy Holscher, who has mocked Jesus in the past.

   At training camp, Travis Kelce met with the me...

   We had some more wild communist primaries Tuesday night and Hong got the Gong in Wisconsin... unless there is a recount.  We'll go over the winners and losers as former sportscaster Michelle Tafoya cruises for the GOP in Minnesota.

   A new ad popping up everywhere just blasts Pastor Adam Hamilton for supporting BLM, repenting because he's white and having his church pay for draq queen story hour.  Oh, this is so good.

   The Air Force One report that President Trump was not on the plane as it left Turkey last month has taken a predictable turn.  T...

   Remember last month when President Trump went to the NATO Summit in Turkey and they switched out Air Force One planes for the prez?  Well, turns out he didn't fly on either one of them.  According the Washington Post, Trump and his closest aides got in catering truck after boarding the plane and were taken to a different military jet to fly to England.  Incredible.

   It's getting worse and worse for Tony Fauci... and all of us.  Wow, how many lies could this man tell?  According to his text messages, Fauci was concerned about first trimester miscarriages for women...

   What a crazy twist.  Less than two weeks after filling in for your humble host on his radio show, Jackson County Executive Phil LeVota is indicted on multiple charges including a bribery scheme around the election of the new County Exec.  This is wild.

   After Dr. Fauci took out the trash yesterday (and wouldn't we like to know what he tossed?) he got in the car and went for a ride with his wife.  All cameras are on the Fauci's again and Mrs. Covid Jab flipped the bird at the media.  You gotta love it when the true col...

   New polling shows that Americans of all parties are absolutely in favor of passing the SAVE America Act.  The question asked is not about providing ID, it's specific to the bill.  And everyone wants it.

   The new season of Ted Lasso is out and it begins with an episode that is an absolute banger for our fair city.  Every landmark you can think of is shown and literally, the whole theme of the episode is about living in KC.

   Ty Masterson gets tough on his opponent for Kansas Governor.  A democrat running for Congress in Hawaii fre...

   If we learned one thing about primary voters in Missouri and Kansas it's that they love them some government and taxes.  Holy smokes did the Missouri income tax elimination get crushed and the voters of Kansas are simply not interested in electing Supreme Court justices.  Let's just keep getting taxed and have the goverment do what it wants.  Wow.

   Almost all of the winners around our two states were the most well known candidates, we'll go over the winners and losers.  Also, I went to the polls twice as I voted on Monday and took my mom to vote...

   Pardon my enthusiasm but it was just glorious to watch Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers absolutely unload on Anthony Fauci at his team's training camp.  This is too fun.  We have it for you.

   Then, Clay Travis of Outkick challenges the WNBA champs to a basketball game against High School Boys for $10 million and then doubles down.  Travis says he wants to buy a team for Nashville and have only trans players on it naming them the Nashville Balls.  This is getting so good.

   Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt says the senate could pass a bill on college at...

   We've not spent a lot of time talking about the Protect College Sports Act on the podcast because to this point it was a bunch of hot air from politicians in an election year.  That all changed in the last 48 hours.  The Big Ten and SEC are on board now, with some serious changes.  Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt is right in the middle of all of it and he is fired up the Senate will get something done this week that saves college sports from self destruction.  We'll play it for you.

   Then, KU hires an athletic departme...

   For a few hours this weekend, it looked like the Chiefs had lost a pair of wide receivers they are counting on.  It still could be a problem going forward but disaster has been avoided as the players are better than first thought.

   Dr. Bill Busch of www.nkcdental.com goes global as we've learned he was the dentist to all the World Cup teams here in KC this summer.  And he had three emergency calls including one on Father's Day.  And he needed a translation app to work through it.

   The Royals trade for a pair of...

 It's impossible to think I'd ever lead with the WNBA on this podcast but dueling scandals that should be rocking the league are a mere pimple on their butt because they are spoiled rotten and have liberal privilege.  Oh, and the media will not, under and circumstances, treat them like a real professional league.  They are the Obama cancer of sports.

   The Royals lose in the most insane way possible on Thursday and it's the only time this has ever happened.  Like, ever.  You have to hear this.

    The Chiefs got on the field 11 on 11 and all systems are go for the team, and more importantly, Patrick Mahomes.  The NFL's most decorated quarterback was a full go and that has everyone optimistic.  

   Andy Reid loves his new runningback and off the field he reports that Mia Bienemy is out of ICU.  Team President Mark Donovan discussed the process of securing a Super Bowl at the new Arrowhead and we are one week away from the first NFL preseason game... ugh... the Cardinals and Panthers.

   The Royals won a clean game 4-0 that had a bunch of...

   For the first time in the history of this podcast, we've got a lead story that I don't know if it's a Republican or Democrat cause.  But I"m going to find out.  I'm leaning toward these folks holding signs about circumcision at 135th and Metcalf are on the right and don't want to see little boys cut on right after birth.  You have to hear what this outfit did on Tuesday.

   Dr. Fauci's diary is over 1000 pages of self adoration and contradictions to everything he was saying publicly about Covid.  It's disgusting.  He testifies before the Senate to...

  This one is easy.  Scott Faughn of www.themissouritimes.com  and newspapers in Jeff City, Fulton and  California, Missouri has all things America  covered.  He has more opinions than me and is about to suprise you.  Ypu don't need a vote in Missouri to hear this really smart and free speech man. Let's go.

The way Salvy's teammates celebrated him becoming the Royals all time home run leader says it all about the man.  You rarely see this kind of pure joy in Major League Baseball but then again, Salvy may be the greatest teammate of all time.

   We went to Morton Amphitheater Saturday night for Trump's friend Jason Alden's concert.  Aldean is a total pro but surprisingly remained politically quiet all night and just rocked out.  I will also tell you the best thing about this new venue... and the worst.

We've waited and waited and the Chiefs are back.  Nothing to report except they are reporting to training camp but we all have a million questions about this year's team and the upcoming season.

   It was quite a week for dems shining a light on our need to pass the SAVE America Act and the latest is a guy that's telling the truth.  If dems say there is no fraud taking place, just cave on the thing and pass it and move on as it's a loser for dems with voters.

  Salvador Perez is an all timer and one of my very favorite athletes to ever cover.  He seemingly never has a bad day.  On Wednesday he banged a record homer into the fountains in right center but seemed more worried about the man that jumped in to get the ball being arrested than he did about the record.  That's Salvy.  Today... we explain why he should be a lock for the Hall of Fame.

   The Chiefs released renderings and information on their new stadium and it looks spectacular.  It will "sound" even better.  The Chiefs are building a stadium...

   Populous architecture in KC has released a "legend" of where the Royals new ballpark will be located and what will surround it.  It's part of an effort to rezone the entire area and will be featured at a public meeting Monday night.  This is far from anything final but I've got the details on what looks like an incredible development and area for baseball.  It could wind up being the best place for baseball in America!

    It's hard to believe but your humble host got a really nice shout out on social media from none other than Mayor Q...

   After HSI raided a pasta plant in KC and hauled off a bunch of illegal aliens for processing, the leftist media in KC has lost their mind.  Now, they have absolutely nothing to report that anything was done wrong or rules were broken.  And it was certainly a lawful order from a federal judge.  So they resort to writing sob stories about "dire" conditions and starvation.  This is just insane.

    A new study confirms what we already knew, people in America that self describe as "very liberal" have been diagnosed with mental illness at an alarming rate.

 ...

   It went a little under the radar but my goodness did Marco Rubio and company open up a major discussion with a terrorism summit he hosted in DC.  Rubio identifies the dangerous leftists worldwide and brings the stats on just how lopsided it is.  Then he brought up Stephen Miller to swing a sledgehammer.  This is good stuff.

   Philip Sarnecki rocked a KKHI tee shirt at a rally in Sabetha this weekend as he's running for governor.... LET'S GO!

   Phil LeVota isn't running to stay on as Jackson County executive but there are rumblings he's going to...

   The information President Trump released publicly is alarming and on a scale of 1-10 is probably an 8 or 9 news story.  But his speech missed the mark by a wide margin.  It may not have mattered if they delivered this in a better way but it sure didn't come off the way many thought it would.

   The Blue Angels did the wildest flyover anyone can remember this week in Florida and is under review.  But the Pentagon says the shows will go on for America 250.

   Kansas City has finally hit the big time and gone global!  No, not for the World Cup silly. Heck no, we got some dude stuck in the tank of a porta potty and millions and millions have watched the KC Fire Department cut him out.  I love my city!

   Trump's address tonight is anticipated by two different kinds of conservatives.  Who will be right?  Also, the prez sez he's replacing dangerous, killer illegal alien truckers with military vets.  Great move.

   Kansas Gov hopeful Philip Sarnecki sent me an unbelievable text yesterday showing me exactly where Kansas rank...

   We may debate what degree the Supreme Court is compromised because the justices are under threats of violence from the left but it's very clear this court is affected.  Justice Amy Coney Barrett appeared in front of Congress and is clearly terrified to do her job.  This is unacceptable in America.  We'll play the sound clip and you can hear her pain.

   President Trump is just toying with the left wing media as he teases an address to the nation Thursday night that he says is a really, really big deal concerning election integrity.  I hope the tease is...

   President Trump will address the nation Thursday night and initial reports are this will be a scathing takedown of election interference and rigging of the 2020 election.  Of course, conservative believers everywhere think this will be the game changer that puts people in prison, changes our election laws forever and leads to a GOP supermajority.  I say don't get your hopes up for any of that.  You'd better show me something first.

   It's a bonus pod as the schedule is a little off this week but we've now learned that Lindsey Graham's sister Darline has been named to fill his seat until an election can be held.

   Then, the Kietzman's and their crew had a completely bizarre interaction with family members of Team Argentina at the Margaritaville Resort pool on Sunday celebrating a friend's birthday.  You have to hear how they acted, how the hotel handled it on their behalf and how much the local owners of the property and development received in tax money from all of us... BEFOR...

We all woke up to stunning news Sunday with the sudden passing of long time South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham.  President Trump said he had just spoken with the Senator, who had just returned from Ukraine, and that Graham sounded tired.  Washington reacted to a man that even many democrats respected and liked.

   Meanwhile, Trump issues a harrowing threat to Iran of what will transpire if Trump is assassinated.  And he's not kidding.

   As federal authorities ramp up detentions in Kansas City recently, Mayor Q decided to speak out publicly about it....in Spanish.  One thing is abundantly clear, mayor Q is wrong in multiple languages.  He's literally an Ivy League educated lawyer and does not want to follow the laws in place in America that BOTH PARTIES passed in DC.   I may get a little hot on this one.

   Then, the Royals have revealed some of their plans for parking and traffic flow for their new ballpark and it looks pretty good.  A Mizzou great ads to his resume of broadc...

   In one of the truly gutsiest things we've seen yet, President Trump orders two nights of strikes on Iran while he's in a country that shares a 350 mile long border with Iran.  Then, he had to switch airplanes to fly out safely and landed in the UK to swap the first plane out.  Reporters asked what's going on and he repeatedly reminded them a lot of people want him dead.  Meanwhile, a third Trump plane with his family aboard makes history in Florida.  We need a scorecard to keep track of this man.

   The World Cup has a huge r...

   In one of the more unbelievable sports stories you'll ever hear, the Royals were popping champagne bottles in New York just like they did after beating the Mets in the World Series 11 years ago. Why?  Light hitting utility man Tyler Tolbert tied a Major League hitting record for the ages that's less likely to have happened than getting struck by lighting... twice!

   President Trump says he's done with the Iran ceasefire and he said it at NATO meetings in Turkey.  This is really, really gutsy as he's not really as safe there as he is at home.  For now...

   At least we don't have to knit pick reasons why Team USA fell to Belgium in the World Cup because it was all the reasons.  The United States was slow, unorganized and back on their heels.  It was ugly, ugly, ugly falling 4-1 in Seattle.  And if we're being fair, it's not likely men's soccer in this country will be elite any time soon.

   Something really bad is going on with Senator Mitch McConnell who is reportedly being kept alive by a machine at a hospital in DC.  His wife is reportedly in China.  And a GOP rep from...

   Flo will go.  That's the word from FIFA after President Trump called the head of the soccer organization with a plea to review the bogus call made in the USA's game against Bosnia.  Now, Flo Balogun will have his one game suspension delayed for a year.  Can anyone say, "Golden Age?"  We preview Monday night's match against Belgium.

   The America 250 celebration in DC started, then delayed, then delivered even more well past midnight.  America was shining bright all weekend long.

    The airport in Florida near President Trump's house is officially renamed after Trump this week.   The wedding o...

   The United States the most entertaining soccer game I can ever remember seeing with a 2-0 win over Bosnia Wednesday night.  They looked like the better team and played lock the better team until America's best player got a red card and the USA had to play the rest of the night shorthanded, down one player.  To say this match was dramatic and wild is an understatement.  We have all the details and explore whether we can get Flo Balogun back for the next match.

   It was just another great moment of this America 250 week.  President Trump flew on...

   The Supreme Court has just initiated the first advertising campaign in the history of the world for foreigners to take over another country.  "We are open for business" is the message the court sent to billions around the world... come have your very own American citizen by visiting our great land.  Stephen Miller has some thoughts.

   This puts the lazy GOP House and Senate on the clock to do something about it.  I've got a better chance of winning Powerball this weekend.
