As always, the KSR pre-show is brought to you by Italix. Fine Italian dining in Lexington,

the fiancé, had a little Italics yesterday, so taking in some great Italian food as she made

her way to the game. It was senior night for the Kentucky Wildcats, but we'll get to that in just a

second. Shannon, the dude is in Louisville. Good morning, Shannon. How are you, my man? I'm doing good.

You want to take me out to italics?

I got to get out there.

We talk about it all the time.

I feel like I need to go try some italics.

I would love for you to come try some italics, but I don't know if I'm picking up the check, Shannon. maybe one of those split bill conversations that we need to have. The awkward situation.

Sometimes that could be awkward.

Where it's like, who wants to pick up the bill?

And then, like, everybody just kind of looks at each other and everybody gets alligator arms.

And nobody's picking up the bill.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

It's like, you know, whoever touches the bill first sometimes is obligated to do it. Or how about like when they, you know, they come out and they go,

how do you want to do the check? One person says, split it. One person goes, just put it on one.

That's always awkward to you. Yeah, you just got drinks and everybody else got entrees.

And then suddenly we're, you know, every, then you're having to pitch in and split the bill evenly. It's like, no, no, no, no. I'm just paying for my drinks.
