Summary

At his State of the City address, Mayor Q pledges he will reach an agreement with the Royals this year to build a downtown stadium. If he pulls it off, this will be great for KC. Mizzou wins in a wild one at A&M and suddenly anything feels possible. Meanwhile, Jerome Tang melts down after losing by 29 at a game the students wore paper bags over their heads. The Olathe School district, already mired in a cesspool of negative stories, is asking for $389 million in a sham mail in vote. Don't tell them no. Tell them hell no! KCMO radio's Pete Mundo has received a tremendous national honor as having one of the top shows in America. Bobby Witt Jr has brought his puppy to training camp and you can follow on the dog's Instagram page. The Big 12 makes its "major announcement" about a change in KC for the tourney. The Chiefs make a nice hire for running backs coach. ESPN's Seth Greenberg unloads on Darryn Peterson of KU. We'll play the audio for you. And say goodbye to the Obama Button in our Final Final.

0:15.1	Program note on this Thursday, KKHI may be wandering down a weird, strange, windy path today on this podcast. I'm not sure we're going to have as much structure as both days. Our topics will be in the proper order. I'm just not that confident about it. We've got a lot of things going on. And I'm just going to bring them kind of spitfire here in whatever order they seem to tickle my fancy we will start
0:38.1	with something that i would spend normally a lot of time on but we don't have a lot of time today
0:41.5	and that is the congress house representative passing the save act 218 to 213 only one democrat voted for
0:48.5	this but afterwards mike johnson the speaker of the house said that john thune the leader of the
0:54.0	senate is committed to passing voter
0:55.9	ID legislation. So we'll see what happens in the coming weeks or probably months with the Senate

1:06.7	In fact, I'm not optimistic Republicans want to work with Trump at all. They're starting to

1:35.8	drubbed by 29 points against a really bad Cincinnati team in Manhattan where the students
1:41.1	are wearing bags over their head. And after the game, Jerome Tang said the players don't deserve to wear this uniform, and not many of them will be back next year.
1:50.3	Well, I've got news for Jerome Tang. I don't care what the buyout costs. He's in real trouble here.
1:54.7	This needs to be a cleaning house of the athletic department with a refocus on the new football coach and the football
