Welcome everybody. It is the KSR pre-show Tuesday, January 28th. I am Shannon the dude being joined by Billy Rettledge.

You can give us a call in the Clark's Pubbit Shop phone line, 859, 2807, be our Whiskey Thief Call of the Day.

You can also send us a text at 502-26566.

And the KSR pre-show is being brought to you by Italics,

fine Italian dining in Lexington, which is where Billy is at right now. Not at Italics,

but he's in Lexington. I'm over in Louisville. And Billy this morning, I woke up. Tell me if you ever done this before. I looked at my phone. Of course, that's the first thing I go to grab when I wake up. Got to grab the phone. See what time it is. Make sure I didn't oversleep.

I look at my phone. It's at 3%. So what I did, I guess, last night is I thought that I plugged

in my phone to charge it. Didn't. And now I've got like, I charged it a little bit this morning. I'm up to like 5% now.

So the only thing is, you know, I've got all of my topics on my phone.

You know, Matt Jones does it differently. He's got his little black book that he carries around everywhere. But I don't know how you like prepare for shows, but I put everything on

my phone, like in the notes that way I've got, my topics that I want to talk about.

But if this thing goes dead, I'm going to forget about what I'm supposed to talk about,

and this show is going to go off the rails. So good morning. How are you doing? Have you ever done

I'm great, dude? I have. I normally don't drink on a Monday night, but you know what? To each their own? I'm sure you were partying. Wasn't drinking. I actually fell asleep.

Fell asleep and woke up and was all groggy. And I guess I halfway plugged in my phone.

Unfortunately, it didn't work. It didn't take the charge.

So you don't have one of these portable chargers, like the boxes that you can bring around?

Because I got one of those for Christmas, Shannon, and it's a life changer.

So maybe we need to get you one of those. I've got them. I mean, I usually don't use them, though, when I'm at my house. I just plug it into the hall, you know. I do write my notes for the show on my phone for remotes, but if we're

in studio, Shannon, I will write it down on a piece of paper. I have found that, you know, this is an old trick. If you write it down, you seem to remember it a little bit more.

And you don't want to be looking down while you're trying to do the show a lot of times.

Is that true?
