Fine Italian dining right here in Lexington in the city center on Main Street.

I'm here in Lexington, Kentucky, in the Sydney Center. Shannon the dude is in Louisville.

We are holding it down and we'll pass it over to KSR around 10 a.m.

Where the guys will be in London, Kentucky doing the show in the disaster area.

There's no easy way to start this, but there was a significant loss of life over the weekend throughout

the Midwest and the South, including our own state of Kentucky once again.

Once again, we come on these airwaves with terrible news to report about 19 people killed in

Kentucky in the devastation in London and in Somerset after tornadoes hit the area on Friday night.

Shannon, there's no way to talk about it, but just some devastating weather, devastating

images over the weekend, whether it be the tornado or the houses scattered about.

The state cannot catch a break, and specifically eastern Kentucky just seems to be hit and hit again

and our thoughts and prayers go out to everybody affected by these these terrible events over this

over the weekend shannon yeah i mean it's just so sad to see the the pictures of the devastation

people who've lost lives some people lost everything that they own you know houses just

flattened just really sad to see that

but at the same time i will also say it was just you know seeing those images of kentuckians coming
