Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   Hunter Biden's former business partner is set to testify in front of a House committee and it won't be televised.  Devon Archer is Hunter's former best friend and knows everything they ever did together in business.  The question is, will he answer everything or hold back as he's right in the crosshairs of everyone in the swamp.
   Former Missouri Governor Jay Nixon joins the third party called No Labels as their director of election integrity.  His job will be to get their candidate on the ballot in all 50 states.

  The Royals sweep the Twins as Bobby Witt Jr is on fire and Nicky Lopez gets traded to the Braves.

   The Big 12 finally has a commissioner that understands the league's potential and he's moving fast to execute his plan.  Colorado is back after a terrible mistake leaving the conference and Brett Yormark is clearly looking for one to three more schools.  We discuss the winners and losers in all this and which schools could be joining a new, massive, coast to coast conference.
   Broncos coach Sean Payton continues to make headlines by calling out anyone and everyone.  This time, it's former Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett and the NY Jets.  You have to hear this.
   The best part of the botched plea deal for Hunter Biden is what the judge said to him, basically calling him a loser. This is such an embarrassment for the first family.
   There's a report that we had a near brawl in congress as two high profile members got face to face and threatened each other and a famous rapper and his more famous life partner filmed a new music video in KC.

   Royals Chairman John Sherman's two page open letter to Royals fans and civic leaders drew a lot of attention this week but still presents more questions than answers.  I'll share my thoughts.  Then, we talk with Ryan Lefebvre on what he believes is best for the team and the city.  Also, can the Royals replicate the amazing turnaround of teams like the Orioles and Reds and what exactly is it like to stay at MLB's famously Haunted Hotel in Milwaukee?

   It's terrible that Lebron James son, Bronny, collapsed with cardiac arrest while practicing basketball and everyone wishes them well.  But when everyone heard the news of this healthy 18 year old, we all asked the same question talking or texting friends.  How many Covid shots do you think he took? This one signals a huge cultural shift in America as scores of celebrities have become very ill over the past year and a half for seemingly no reason. 
   Joe Biden announces he's cured cancer as his son is facing his day in court.
   Something called Lazy Girl Jobs are all the rage with young professionals
   Broncos coach Sean Payton blasts the NFL for the way it enforces punishment of players and coaches for betting on games.  Chargers QB Justin Herbert now makes more than Patrick Mahomes and it appears it was a KU football player from Prairie Village that made the bomb threat at the team facilities Monday and he could be in big, big trouble.
 

   Ok, so the big guy is clearly caught selling political favors for money to foreign companies and countries.  So what's next?  We take a look at several options for Republicans who really should only have one thing in mind.... how to win in 2024.
   For the second time in 8 years, a former White House chef has drowned during recreation. This time it's Tafari Campbell who had continued to work for and be a guest of the Obamas.  It's senseless and sad he had no life vest on while paddleboarding and leaves me with two big questions nobody else seems to be asking.
   The movie biz is on fire this summer.  We know the bust out hit Sound of Freedom and Tom Cruise crushing it with Mission Impossible.  Now it's Barbie and Oppenheimer.  So why did KC based AMC Theaters dump their very good idea of charging $1 more for the best seats in their theaters?
   All is well after a bomb scare at the KU football complex Monday night, Chris Jones keeps Chiefs fans guessing with his tweets  and KU professors claim to be native American to get hired.  

   The tone around Chiefs d-lineman Chris Jones' camp holdout is changing.  The superstar sacker wants a new contract but still has a year left on his current deal.  Andy Reid made it sound like the discussions were productive but now it sounds like they've broken off.  We discuss the Chiefs options.
   There was a bunch of camp news this weekend around the league with one team fighting, one team battling the hype train and one team getting unexpectedly good quarterback news.  Oh, and Washington is changing their name again and they are now considering the name I picked years ago.
   Elon Musk has changed the name of Twitter, Inc. to X Corp.  There was a wild boat crash at the Lake of the Ozarks Saturday night, Don Jr says he's been blacklisted by Fox News and we have the exact day and time of Cocaine Sharks this Shark Week.

   During an interview with an Iowa radio host, President Trump said it would be "dangerous" if the DOJ jailed him for any period of time as they are going after him for anything and everything.  I'm guessing the left will believe he's calling for violence.
   Chicken McNuggets, as mysterious as they are, don't cost much and are tasty.  But how about an $800,000 nugg?  It happened.
   Shark Week starts Sunday night and I can't wait to see an episode called Cocaine Sharks.  Yup, they believe some drug drops of the coast of Florida are being gobbled up by Great Whites.  Oh my.
   The Open Championship has been fun to watch except the ridiculous bunkers on day one.  So they already changed them for the rest of the tourney and apologized.
   Who know Patrick Mahomes was afraid of bees?  And most of us shower daily but "experts" say we shouldn't.  

   Country singer Jason Aldean's song and video "Try That in a Small Town" is a classic example of a growing movement in America that can be described as conservative blowback.  It's working, it's growing and it's here to stay.  We have a handful of great examples of how we are taking back the narrative in this country. 
   Who knew Patrick Mahomes had a thrifty side?  We see the trips, the house, the cars and the clothes... but now we know he loves to bargain shop.
   Didn't believe me about Taylor Swift indoctrinating young girls to not only be Swifties but be lefties?  Well, the new Barbie movie has seen how Swift has cashed in on this and is an exact copy.  Wait until you hear about a female movie reviewer that calls this movie, "man hating."
   The city of Lawrence council has unanimously voted to declare the town a "transgender sanctuary city," whatever that is.  You have to hear this.
   And stay to the end for the best quote you've ever head about Donald Trump.  Actor Jim Caviezel watched his film "The Sound of Freedom" with Trump at his New Jersey club Wednesday night and says the former prez is the only person that can stop all this child sex trafficking.  You have to hear this quote.

   With the latest possible charges against Donald Trump, it's now up to a comical 770 years in jail he could potentially face.  We have to be a laughing stock to the world at this point.
   Missouri Congressman Mark Alford's support for the war in Ukraine is fading fast as he says the next $1.3 billion Biden is sending goes against the will of Congress.  Hey, let's vote to stop this.
   Chiefs coach Andy Reid is the star of day 1 of Chiefs camp and we've got the details why. 
   The Commonwealth of Victoria has pulled out as host of the Commonwealth Games in 2026 for the same reason KC should consider dumping the World Cup.  They can't afford it and it doesn't really benefit the city of Melbourne.
   The Open Championship is set to begin at Royal Liverpool with big tributes to the Beatles and a new, high loft sand wedge I've never seen before.  We'll preview the players to beat.

    Chiefs rookies are reporting to camp in St. Joseph, Mo today and as a podcaster in America's football mecca, it's a great time to share my thoughts of what I'm excited about and concerned about.   Thankfully, this long, silly, overplayed off season is over.  Let's talk about the teams on the field!
  ESPN baseball reporter Jeff Passan has lived in KC forever and is widely regarded as a standout in the industry.  After the big storms last Friday, Passan was cleaning up in his yard when a big tree crushed him and broke his back.  It was unlucky for sure, but  it could have been worse as this was a really big tree.
   KU's new stud center Hunter Dickinson isn't just a great player, he's a great interview and has already been bold in talking about how much better he likes Kansans than Michiganders.
   The White House stonewalls on cocaine and the economy and Josh Hawley slams the European company that owns Anheuser-Busch in St. Louis.
