Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   Royals Chairman John Sherman finally has me optimistic about a new ballpark downtown for the Royals.  Sherman said at a public event Tuesday that private money will take care of the "major part" of the $2 billion project.  At this point, there's no reason not to believe him.  But it would sure be a first in this town if he comes through.     Peyton Manning told a story about Bill Belichick on t...

   The founder of crypto mess FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, has been arrested in the Bahamas.  He's eventually coming to America and will be tried on multiple counts of fraud and like jailed for decades.  This is good news as it's pretty much the only Democrat I can think of that has been popped since Joe Biden became president.    Inflation numbers released Tuesday were better than expected and the sto...

   The Football Feast is jam packed with NFL playoff contenders as the Chiefs beat the Broncos again... this time in a nail biter that should have been a laugher.  Turnovers continue to keep KC from being an elite team and Stan Weber is here to tell us if the Chiefs can fix it.   We also take a hard look at the Buffalo Bills who have a ton of problems on their own, even though they keep winning.  ...

   Many of us thought this Border War was a return to the good old days of a real rivalry.  Instead, we got another KU beatdown over a former rival that doesn't belong on the same floor.  It was ugly, hideous and not entertaining.    That meant the most interesting thing to see was Mizzou football coach Eliah Drinkwitz holding up a sign about KU being cheaters.  It rang hollow.   Also this weekend...

   I can't wait for the Border War game with KU at MU Saturday as it just conjures up so many great memories and should be a competitive game that means a lot to many.  It sort of signifies the start of college basketball season as the college football regular season is over.    The Chiefs are flexed out of prime time and get Ian Eagle calling their regional game against Denver Sunday.  Does anyon...

   WNBA star Brittney Griner is on her way home after 9 months in Russian prison and that's a good thing.  The Biden administration traded a man named "the Merchant of Death" for Griner and some believe it was a very lopsided trade.    The manager at Olive Garden in Overland Park has been fired after demanding his employees prove they have a real reason to miss work.  This is getting national atte...

   The more Mizzou talks about not playing KU in a bowl game, the worse it gets.  I like Eli Drinkwitz because he's unafraid and says things... this time... he's saying way too much and it looks bad.    Ditto for Chiefs safety Justin Reid who, ridiculously, now says he was right about the Bengals.  Andy has to shut this guy up, fast.    The Royals are not only bad, they are unlucky.  The draft lot...

   Actor Kirstie Alley has died at the age of 71 after what's being described as a short battle with an aggressive cancer.  She was beloved by millions of Americans for her role on Cheers, which was a difficult role to take.  Alley was from Wichita, went to KU and had the audacity to support Trump in 2016.  These facts made a couple celebrity tributes to her life just a little selfish.    Lawyer H...

   The computer says the Chiefs are still the favorite to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl but I'm not buying it.  It's pretty obvious now the Chiefs own their division but don't be the best teams very often.  Tom Brady in AFC Title game and then the Super Bowl, the Bills (except a :13 second miracle) repeatedly and of course Joe Burrow and the Bengals.  It's a very real problem.  Stan Weber is...

   KKHI weekend has a role reversal as I will host and Spencer is the guest after we had a great time in Dallas at the Big 12 Title Game.  We'll share some stories and talk some football including the Playoffs being set and where MU and KU may be bowling.  It's all brought to you by www.homewithcornerstone.com and www.eeoutdoor.com  

  The U.S. Men's Soccer Team looks to surprise us all by advancing Saturday at the World Cup.  One thing is for sure, our players and fans aren't in near the danger people in other countries are.  This tourney shows us how different governments change lives for humans everywhere.   Patrick Mahomes appeared on Travis Kelce's podcast and has told some wild stories about how he got drafted by the Chi...

   For weeks it's been reported that Apple is dropping Twitter from the App Store and a clash of the titans was coming.  That's when Elon Musk did what any practical businessman would do... he went to Apple HQ and met with  CEO Tim Cook.  After two minutes, this story went away.  What an example.    Fed Chair Jerome Powell says nobody saw this inflation coming and he sounds like he's reading right...

   It may be a sad commentary on society today but good, nice, friendly people stand out in our society and get noticed.  We can also use this to make a difference.  I'll share a couple stories about this audience the past couple weeks that will make you feel good.    Four dem Senators, possible speaker Kevin McCarthy and the Supreme Court are all giant threats to Joe Biden's illegal border policy...

   With so much frustration felt by so many conservatives after the last two years, it's pretty obvious that complaining about it all will do nothing.  This was a big issue at a speaking event I emceed Monday night and to be perfectly blunt, it's not who conservatives are.    One of the ways to get change right now is through legal cases in front of the Supreme Court.  The illegal border policy ca...

   It's the Football Feast as we discuss just how easy it was for the Chiefs to beat the Rams, even though KC was sloppy at times.  The Bengals are up next and Cincy is hot as they're 7-2 in their last 9.  Stan Weber gives us the scouting report on the surging Bengals.    The we discuss K-State's dominant win over KU and what the Cats have ahead Saturday in the Big 12 Championship Game.    And why...

   We hope you had a great holiday but it might not have been as good as the tasty turkey for the KU, KSU and MU basketball teams as they are now a combined 18-0 this year.  And the last two wins came with some deliciously good fortune.    Then, you'll meet Michael Stewart.  Stewart is an engineer in Topeka who designs roads and highways and such and he's obviously a smart and successful man, rais...

   Happy Thanksgiving to all and we're pretty sure you'll be mixing if some football with your feast so here's your weekend preview.     The Chiefs get a crippled Rams team that's in last place it what was supposed to be a great matchup.    KU and KSU battle Saturday night and Jayhawks coach Lance Leipold will coach with a fat new contract.    Mizzou tries get get bowl eligible against Arkansas an...

   Twitter is like junior high, maybe that's why they call some nut jobs on the left "hall monitors."  These people are fleeing the site and we're all better for it.    In journalism, it's cool to say you're leaving Twitter but not cool to say why.  ESPN's Jeff Passan, who lives in KC, says he's moving all his breaking stories to Instagram but stops short of insulting Elon Musk or conservatives. ...

   The Los Angeles Chargers tried and tried and tried to beat the Chiefs Sunday night.  But come on, how are you going to beat Patrick Mahomes if you leave him nearly two minutes on the clock?   Those poor Chargers are so close.... yet so far from winning the AFC West.    As Stan Weber joins us from the beach, we talk Chiefs, NFL and all our area college teams.  It's a big game in Manhattan Saturd...

   It was a fun week doing some interviews elsewhere but a pair of them stood out and thought you might like to hear them.    First, it's really fun sports talk with Scott Kaplan and Crew in Southern California.  I've known Scott for over 20 years and he always brings up interesting topics.  topics like sports owners in California failing after their daddy left them a team.  Quite a contrast to KC...

   Nancy Pelosi announced she's resigning from leadership but let's be certain about one thing, she isn't going away.  There will be interviews, documentaries and behind the scenes control she won't be able to relinquish.  They'll talk about greatness, but her legacy is she's leaving behind a calamity on the American public.      The Chiefs have a huge game against the Chargers that everyone expec...

   It's so frustrating with all the information available to Americans that the left continues to control the narratives by reporting lies for 24 hours before quietly correcting stories.  And all anyone believes is what they heard first.      Now it's happening in KC with the Royals wanting a new $2 billion ballpark that is all sunshine and unicorns.  www.tonyskansascity.com has a lead story today...

   We pride ourselves in featuring a large number of issues on the podcast but this time we focus on Three Big Things.      Trump is running after a low key, presidential speech.  KU looks like KU without head coach Bill Self.  And Royals owner John Sherman wants at least $2 billion for a new ballpark.    We also manage to sneak in just a couple words on Mizzou busting out 105 points and K-State s...

   The midterm blame game is full on between Republicans everywhere, even as they take over the House of Representatives.  But it's pretty obvious what needs to happen as we now allow elections "months" and weeks after to gather more votes.  Conservatives have to embrace the lunacy of the system and join the fray.    The Chiefs special teams have been especially bad this year but now is not the ti...

   It's the Football Feast and Stan Weber joins us to talk about the Chiefs fairly easy win over the Jags and taking over the top spot in a crowded AFC.     Then, we talk K-State football as the Wildcats once again control their own destiny to make the title game in Dallas.  Has Will Howard finally taken over the starting QB job?    The Kansas Jayhawks and Missouri Tigers each did some nice things...
