This is an IHeart podcast.

Here's how I know this is America's college football show because I've got a show in front of me.

There it is right

there with enough meat on the bone that it could rival something we do in October. And they're

actually playing football in October. Late kick live, no time to waste. We are jam-packed,

high on top and exuberant, very glorious downtown Nashville, Tennessee. It's Thursday, May 16th,

the year of our Lord, 2024. Dabo and the Portal is one of the

most beautiful sagas that our sport has to offer right now. The ACC is a total nightmare, more like

a horror story. I always have to say that word very slow, or it sounds like something else.

Their future is very much in doubt. I have got every quarterback situation in the entire

Southeastern Conference rated, and we're dropping that in tonight's show. July 19th is shaping up

to be, well, I'll just say it, one of the biggest days in the history of the United States of America

going all the way back to 1776 and before. Big, big things happen in July 19th. I have got so much to talk

about tonight. I would love to talk gas station recruiting wars with you. We'll do it Sunday.

I would love to talk storm chasing and other nonsense with you. No time. We'll do it Sunday.

They're watching us in Lexington, North Carolina, Wells, Nevada, Calo, Spel, Montana, and the guys

and girls down at Robbins, Air Force Base, and Georgia, where I'll be later tonight, not on the base, per se, but in the state. They're watching us. Thank you guys so much. Make sure you're following. At Lake, Kick, Josh. There's so much going on. The Instagram story itself is worth the price of admission. Someone, old buddy of mine, Sean, he knows who he is, found a picture of yours truly from high school

and posted last night and I reshared it. I try and tell you guys, age is not a real thing. It's

just a social construct. It is possible to look the exact same, however old they claim I am,

today as you did in high school. Keep the same haircut, keep the same wardrobe, keep the same lifestyle. Get in the gym a little bit more, but other than that, don't change all that much. So yeah, I mean, you're not going to see that on the show. You can see it on the Instagram story, though. At late kick Josh. Okay, here we go. Let's dive in. I have got many, many, many different directions to take us tonight. Thank you guys so much for being tuned. If you are not already, just subscribe to the pod or subscribe to the channel or both. And we'll all be better off for it. The ACC is cooked. It just feels cooked. It feels like the stove's on. It feels like everything's in the pan, and you just got to slide it in at this point. And it's not a good feeling for those of us who really just wish we could leave well enough alone. There's a really good Tracy Lawrence song when Daddy was a strong man. Never got released on the radio, but that's one of the lines in there. I wish change would just leave well enough alone. Great song, by the way. If you're a country music fan when Daddy was a strong man, you know what? If you're just a fan of

music in general, it's really good one. So no one wants to be there. They had their spring meetings down at Amelia Island. I've never gone to it. In fact, I don't think I've been to any of the spring meetings. I'm always doing other stuff that time of year. But the ACC had their spring meetings down there. And I thought, good friend of the program, Ross Dellinger over at Yahoo Sports,

put it very well. If you've not paid it... year, but the ACC had their spring meetings down there, and I thought, good friend of the program,
