Welcome, everyone, to another edition of the KSR Pre-show.

Today is Tuesday, July 1st.

I'm Billy Rutledge, and we continue our week without Shannon the dude.

You can give us a call on the Clark's Pump and Shop phone line.

That's 859-280-2287.

Texas at 502-2-6-66-6.

And as always, the KSR Pre-show is brought to you by Italics, Fine Italian Dining

in Lexington, in the city center on Main Street. We're in the Louisville, Kentucky building again,

as I will be producing KSR a little bit later today. A big thank you to Rachel Elliott, who joined

us on the show yesterday, had a fun time talking about country music and what

music gets to be played on the radio. But now we continue our week of getting to know the Louisville

building with an absolute legend. It's Terry Miners, joining me. Getting to know the Louisville

building. That's right. I'm still trying to get to know this building myself.

Billy, it's good to see you, my friend. It's an honor to have you on, Terry. And I mean this with

full sincerity. You are a mentor to me, and I thank you for everything and all the advice that

you've given me over the years. I think back of many great times, but I need to congratulate you.

As we walked in, you said today is your 40-year anniversary

here in Louisville. Is that right? That is correct. I signed my papers on July 1st,

1985. I left QMF in Louisville. I was going to say KQQ. That's where I started in Lexington.

But I left QMF on Memorial Day weekend on the Friday.

Can I tell the story? Yeah, please. Of course. This is what this hour's for. Okay, good.

So let me back up a couple of days. Someone says to me, I get a phone call. Terry Miner's, yes.
