Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   KC  Mayor Quinton Lucas must be a magician.  How else can he show you all the shiny little things that don't matter in one hand and hide the really, really bad stuff in the other?  Hey, look, we are soccer town USA with a sweet ladies team and have free bus rides, Mayor Q will tweet for all to see.   Oh, a new report shows KC has the highest increase in murder rate in America?  I can already predict his response or write it for him.  He'll say, "crime is up everywhere and we are taking it very seriously and working hard to bring it down.  But what we are experiencing is happening everywhere."  Ok, well, apparently not. 
   Meanwhile, lunatic liberal lockdown Laura in Kansas has a drag show problem on her hands.  Seems she's on the hook for using tax dollars to support community shows with "explicit sexual content" for children of all ages.  Derek Schmidt has an issue to pounce on, let's see if he does it. 
   Barack Obama was on the Mannincast for Monday Night Football and it has a lot of people buzzing.  Teams all over the NFL have big QB problems right now, remember when that used to be a thing in KC?  And Jim Nantz is saying goodbye to college basketball.... March Madness won't be the same.

   After a really sloppy start, the Chiefs explosion against the Niners was simply spectacular.  Stan Weber is here to tell us if we should be concerned about the mistakes or just enjoy and rely on the greatness.
   Stan's also got the latest on critical injuries for Kansas State that turned an 18 point lead at TCU into a complete disaster for the Cats.  Will MU's win springboard their season and how much trouble is KU's defense.
  Then, did you know the World Series is set between the Astros and Phillies?  Of course, MLB is going to make you wait all week to see it start.
   And Nancy Pelosi is asked a question that makes her uncomfortable on national tv.  We'll fill you in.
 

   It's all sports with a big football weekend ahead.  The Chiefs did not trade for running back Christian McCaffrey, instead, they will face him this week as a member of the 49ers.   We preview the game and the key injuries that could benefit KC.
  The Royals are serious about the possibility of hiring Dusty Wathan as their new manager.  We'll discuss his resume and style and why this could be a really good idea for KC.
  And Lee Sterling at www.paramountsports.com hit his two biggest plays of the year last week.  He's here to tell us what he thinks of the big KSU/TCU game, the Tigers and Jayhawks and of course, the 3 point favorite Chiefs.

   This episode is jam packed with something for everyone including some stunning numbers about just how mad voters are polls open all over the country for mid terms.  
   In Georgia, early voting is smashing records even though Dems told us new voter laws are racist and restrict access to voting.  They lost an All Star Game over the law and it was clearly a lie.
   A reporter at the White House asks the question of the week... and it is one of the most brilliantly worded questions I've ever heard.  You're going to love it.
   My mentor, long time Fox 4 Sports Director Frank Boal joined me for a patron's podcast this week and it's really interesting.  I've pulled a clip for you on his thoughts about the Chiefs defense and the matchup with the 49ers.
   A pair of NFL owners get into a profanity riddled shouting match at the owners meeting... and it's over Roger Goodell.  This is good stuff.  You know both owners.
  And we preview a huge game in Ft. Worth Saturday night between Kansas State and TCU, the only remaining unbeatens in Big 12 conference play.  Also, commissioner Brett Yormark is talking big about the future of the conference at basketball media days in KC.

   It's a special episode as we update  the status of the Kansas district 3 race between Republican Amanda Adkins and uber liberal Sharice Davids, the incumbent. 
   We've got details of current polling, money being spent and the strategy to win back this seat in Washington for the GOP.  
   Amanda is here and talks about it all.... the issues, the make up of the voters in the district and the path to victory.  We encourage you to visit www.amandaadkins.com to get a yard sign, volunteer or make a donation.  And if you see this in time, come join me (and Jessica) at the "Ask Amanda" event Wednesday at 5:00pm at Barley's in Shawnee on Midland Drive.  It's informal and everyone is welcome as part of Pete Mundo's "Politics and a pint" series.  Come see us and help make a difference!

   Former NBA player Royce White, a star at Iowa State and aspiring politician, has some incredibly strong words about LeBron James' silence on slave labor in China.  But he doesn't stop there and brings in Barack Obama and Oprah Winfrey as cancers to black Americans.  We have the audio.
   Democrat Sharice Davids has outspent Amanda Adkins 2 1/2 to one for the Kansas district 3 seat in Congress, we have the shocking numbers of just how desperate the Dems are to hold this seat.
   The college loan forgiveness applications are open online and 21 days out from the election is begs an answer to the question, how is this legal under election law?
    Somebody felt really great last week when they plopped down $80,000 on the Chiefs to beat the Bills.  Not so much anymore.  
   The Niners have 11 injured starters as the Chiefs prepare to play them on the road this week.
   And TNT has kept Charles Barkley from leaving to do LIV  Golf and more for millions and millions.  This is a TEN year contract and Barkley's three colleagues get ten year deals, too.  Wow!

   It's our Monday morning football feast and not all is lost as the Chiefs fall 24-20 to the Bills.  These teams are very even and in the end it was either Patrick Mahomes' mistakes or Buffalo's defense that determined the outcome.  Stan Weber is here to break it all down.
   We also talk about TCU and Tennessee taking the spotlights in the Big 12 and SEC... and how much trouble is KU's defense after a miserable performance Saturday?
   Then it's on the Ron DeSantis who has put an emergency order in place in three counties in Florida that is obviously just to help Republican candidates win in the mid terms next month.  Epic.

Spencer Kietzman hosts, and is joined by Kevin Kietzman to recap what was the best Saturday in sports in 2022. Crazy college football and MLB playoff finishes had us all on the edge of our seats this Saturday, and the drama couldn't have been better.

   What in the world is the January 6 committee doing releasing a documentary film clip of an unhinged Nancy Pelosi, shaking in rage, threatening violence against the President of the United States.  How many ways can they bungle this sham?
   AOC went "home" to NY city and is shouted down by her own voters.  One man in particular let her have it for leading us towards nuclear war.
   It takes a football coach to show DC and the Dems what America is really like.  Wait until you hear the true and simple words of Bucs coach Todd Bowles.  The Dems should pay attention.
   A trio of key Chiefs players are slated to return Sunday, just in time for the game of the year against the Bills.  I'll share what I think will happen and how the Chiefs can win.
   And Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com is here with college and pro point spread picks.  Let's roll!

  The little lies from our federal government are adding up to make it all a really big deal.  The latest is a meeting the CDC had during Covid they bragged about because they were getting input from parents about kids returning to school.  Wait until you hear about the "parents" that took part in the meeting.
   Newt Gingrich isn't the only person stating the obvious that our land is on the wrong track and the elections will reflect that... but nobody else is predicting how glorious it will be for conservatives.
   One example of that is deep blue Rhode Island where a town mayor is running for congress as a Republican... and has a shocking 8 point lead.  Unprecedented.
   The NFL has defended the roughing the passer call against Chris Jones three times this week but they have not addressed the real problem they have on their hands.
   Raiders receiver Davante Adams is charged with misdemeanor assault after shoving the photo at Arrowhead and Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill takes charge as team captain and goes to his head coach to make changes.  You gotta hear this.
