Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   If you will indulge me a bit, I'm going to pass on talking about Joe Biden's trip to Europe....  I have some personal stuff to share.      You may or may not know my mom has not been on top of her game the past couple months but I've got an incredible story to share about skilled doctors that really care, miracle robots and the nicest group of healthcare workers I've ever seen.   American Excep...

   Kamala Harris failed her news conference so badly it could have been a national security crisis.  Why do people in high places phone these things in?  We take a hard look at those in power and why they think they are untouchable.    Hunter Biden seems to be the only middle aged white male in America that can use the N word and get away with it.  Shouldn't be a surprise, his dad's mentor was a K...

   After several days in Florida, I'm so optimistic for America!  Florida is open, fun, free and filled with happy conservatives on vacation with cash in their pockets.  The people of Florida know this and have started an awesome campaign of "Make America Florida."  Count me in as I already bought the tee shirt.    Former Chiefs coach Britt Reid can drive again as a judge has ordered an interlock...

   If you love sports and even remotely love golf, our convo with legendary PGA Professional Jeff Burey is a real treat.  Jeff coached Marty Schottenheimer and George Brett and a host of other sports greats.      Jeff served our great country in the Navy and played golf with the ship's Captain in port.  He eagled the 13th at Augusta National and his first caddie job was for legendary broadcaster J...

The Royals have recovered from their 11 game skid, and are playing good baseball since. They've won 5 in a row and are giving the fans in KC something to watch every night. A color commentator for a MLB team is taking a leave of absence for an insensitive comment relating black culture to the stereotype of white men imitating black culture, and a KSU grad who was recently hired by ESPN has been le...

   Dr. Troy Burns has been practicing medicine in Kansas City for decades.  A pioneer in a unique family primary care system, Dr. Burns has built Pro Partners Healthcare into a better way for patients to have direct access to their physicians.    I've known Dr. Burns for 20 years.  He's straight forward, to the point and really smart.  During this unique conversation, he talks about what we did ri...

   As you probably know, we have a patron program at KKHI and it includes weekly segments with Danny Clinkscale that's a new twist on the old radio show.  BTL 2.0 is a lot different than the show that aired on Sportsradio 810 for almost 22 years when that station was number one.  During a recent episode, we shared stories about our careers, people we met, people we interviewed and events we covere...

   A Jackson County, Mo judge has put a 30 day halt on Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas' attempt to take over $43 million of police budget previously run by the state.   Q vows to fight the state all the way to the Supreme Court so he must not be too confident he will get to control this money.    President Biden goes to Tulsa to remind us about how awful our ancestors were and winds up bungling th...

   Everywhere Patrick Mahomes goes, he makes news.  The latest?  Mahomes says he would love it if Aaron Rodgers got traded to Denver and played the Chiefs twice a year.    Adelberto Mondesi has had a great first week, now he's got to stay healthy.  Mondesi plays with the ease, swagger and confidence of a bat swinging Patrick Mahomes.    We hate that NBA fans are acting badly but continuing to insu...

   Memorial Day should be a day all Americans can pull together on common ground, honoring our fallen soldiers.  We explore the origins and history of this great day that is much more than the unofficial start of summer.    Mayor Q had a bad week, can you believe it?  So many citizens are livid he's defunding the police and he's having a bad time with local media that are honest.  Plus, the St. Lo...

   Patrick Mahomes is everywhere... and that's ok.  It used to be so important for the Chiefs starting quarterback to be at the facility, working harder than everyone and showing the way toward teamwork.  But Mahomes is so special, he gets to make his own rules and no teammate would ever think twice.    Alex Smith is speaking out about the Aaron Rodgers/Packers situation.  This is pretty rare as A...

   Phil Mickelson dunked all over Lebron James Sunday with a tv audience bigger than the man former known as King James... who was playing in the playoffs.  It's time to re-think niche sports.    Adelberto Mondesi is back with a bang and Brad Keller is back from the dead.  Put those two together and the Royals get their best win of the season Tuesday night in Tampa.  It's all good news for KC as t...

   The tired old narrative of racism in America is taking a beating as real racism takes over the headlines.  People waving Palestinian flags are beating up Jews while the number one hate crime category continues to be black on Asian violence.  Defunding the police, closing prisons and opening the borders don't seem to be helping much.    The GM of the Boston Red Sox that traded away Andrew Benint...

   To find the big stories today, you have to look at stories being buried by the left.  Two such stories happened this weekend as Dr. Anthony Fauci admits the virus is man made from a lab and he funded the work in China.  At same time, he still says Rand Paul is a dangerous liar.  The only danger is burying the truth in America.    In England, a very well known 27 year old BLM leader, Sasha Johns...

   History is made at the PGA Championship as 50 year old Phil Mickelson becomes the oldest player ever to win a major championship.  It was epic, he's a legend and its not every day you watch a sporting event you will never forget.  This is as good as it gets in sports.    The fans lost all control at the PGA and it seemed to me this is a glimpse of things to come, post covid.  It's obvious there...

   If you appreciate great politicians, you have to admire the brilliance of Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas.  At just 36, he has his sights set on the Senate and of course, the White House.  He's so good he can defund the police in secrecy in just two hours with a Council vote and then turn around and go on Fox News and convince some Republicans he didn't defund the police and he stands for local...

   The suddenly surging Kansas City Royals have bounced back from an 11 game losing streak by beating some of the top starting pitchers in baseball.  The Royals have won by winning the last three innings of the game.  Sound familiar?  It should, and it's become obvious now which Royals player is the biggest key to 2021 and beyond.    Former Royal Lorenzo Cain is one of my favorite players ever but...

   Chris Stigall has been a national figure in conservative talk radio for years and knows a lot of players in DC.  In this KKHI Conversation, Chris says he thinks Joe Biden works part time because he has very little to do.  We also talk about how media coverage has changed in just four months and how Chris once hosted the Mayor's Christmas Tree lighting.     The PGA championship starts this week...

   The Royals have decided masks are optional at Kauffman Stadium, this is a good step.  A local columnist on the left now says it could have been done earlier and we can make our own choices.  We agree, but that would have been a lot smarter and more insightful months ago during football season.    KU lands a big time hoops transfer... if he doesn't go pro.  Now the question is, could he make mor...

   Its the first real criticism of Royals manager Mike Matheny after the Royals blow a chance to take 3 of 4 from the White Sox.  It was bad enough he trotted washed up Wade Davis out to save the game, but what he said after the game should have you concerned.    The Chiefs get the on field part of 2021 started with Rookie camp and it went well for players like former Mizzou linebacker Nick Bolton...

   Spencer Kietzman has issues with the new "Vax or Mask" announcement.  The NCAA shanks it off the tee by ending the college careers of some scholarship golfers who were stunned when their event was cancelled.  And the Royals have made a little rebound in Chicago.

   The "Mask-uerade" is over.  The CDC says we don't have to do this with a vaccine available.  No kidding... what in the world took so long?    A private company with 36,000 is offering free college to all of them  and dependents.  And they are hiring and you don't even need a high school degree to work there.  So much for excuses in America that you can't get ahead.  The private sector is leadin...

   It's good to know somebody that makes every day count.    Former Royals pitcher Jaime Bluma soared from high school baseball in Oklahoma to record setting closer during Wichita State baseball's glory days.  Two years later, just as he was settling into the Royals bullpen, a shoulder injury changed everything.    Never a man to slow down, Bluma turned to working with kids and raising money for m...

   I loved when the NFL schedule came out long before it was cool.  But I'm not sure I've ever seen a Chiefs schedule like this.  The opener is Sept 12 at Arrowhead against the Browns and the playoff teams just keep coming.  The home schedule is incredible and if you want to travel, there's Vegas and Nashville.    The Royals took a turn for the worse and made it 9 in a row, this is turning into a...

   The firing of Olathe North baseball coach Pete Flood was predictable after the media misreported that he called a player a racial slur.  All sides are in agreement now that the coach used the N-word about some disgusting music players were playing.  What's at issue here is exactly how he used the word.  Didn't matter, he's fired.    With gas prices soaring and some stations out of gas, is Joe B...
