Kevin Kietzman Has Issues

   An account of the procedure to extract Nicolas Madura from his military base compound in Venezuela has been posted by the White House.  A soldier in Venezuela describes the operation as something that they have never seen before including some secret sound wave weapon that debilitated soldiers and made them vomit and bleed from their noses.  What the heck?  I want to know so much more.    A new video of Renee Good is 4 minutes long and it's just what you would expect.  She was attention starved and lured the agents to her car by blocking the road, leading others, honking her horn non stop, dancing and shouting.  Just, wow.    Former funny man David Letterman is leading a host of liberal celebrities whining about CBS News making changes away from being a mouthpiece for the left.    The NFL playoffs were excellent this weekend but a team that doesn't play until round two is making news for hating their fans.    KU blows a second half lead at West Virginia and its really starting to look like their strangle hold on the Big 12 is over.  This team could be 0-3 and Bill Self says the truth out loud why they are not as good as they used to be.    WNBA and former Mizzou star Sophie Cunningham give a profanity filled tyrade on the Chiefs leaving Arrowhead and former KSU coach Chris Klieman says coaching college football would have killed him if he kept going.    Our Final Final is a dream come true for a group of Bears fans.

  The first few minutes of this pod may reset how you think about your life.  Not kidding.  Just listen to a mom that doesn't care about Minnesota or her afternoon lunch with the girls.  She is the happiest American ever from Venezuela.    Then, lets talk about the Chiefs with www.dannyclinkscale.com  and the college hoops season.   And www.paramountsports.com Sultan of South Beach Lee Sterling is on a roll after his favorite team, the Miami Hurricanes covered Thursday night for another KKHI Patron exclusive win.  And our Final/Final is a blood affair in the NFL Playoffs Saturday night.

   We are going to follow the facts about the former Kansas City resident that decided to leave her children behind Wednesday in Minneapolis, and at the very least, risk being arrested by ICE.  By all accounts, Renee Good was committing multiple crimes to defend Somali criminals when she hit the gas pedal with an agent right in front of her.  Bad decisions lead to bad outcomes.    Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice is in hot water again as his former girlfriend posts photos a writes an essay about years of abuse she took from him.  Is this the end for Rice in KC?    Salvador Perez is the captain of Team Venezuela in the upcoming World Baseball Classic and was in his home country when Maduro was extracted.  Why haven't we heard from Salvy on this?    The Missouri Tigers have turned their season around starting 2-0 in SEC hoops.  The Tigers got their first win ever at Kentucky and they did it by closing strong and showing something we weren't sure they had.    NFL tv ratings smash records as the Chiefs lead CBS to being the top rated network.  Clay County officials are no longer talking with the Royals and billionaires are fleeing California for good.

   Not everything is perfect in the Travis Kelce/Taylor Swift world as a charity watchdog has identified Kelce's 87 and Running as a fiscal hot mess.  Get this, only 41% of the money the charity raises goes to actual programs.  The rest, apparently, goes to Kelce's buddies that run the thing.  Uh oh.  Here's the good news, Kelce is exactly the kind of guy that would have no idea this is happening, but I'll bet his fiance cleans up his affairs quickly.    KU had a comeback for the ages  beating TCU at Allen Field House Tuesday night.  This is exactly what Bill Self does, even when it feels like it was the other team that blew it.    It's time to celebrate as the Corporation for Public Broadcasting dissolves after a vote of the board.  This has been a taxpayer nightmare since 1967 and now PBS and NPR will have to stand on their own legs.    Trump's getting 50 million barrels of oil from Venezuela and is ordering them to stop drilling until they meet ALL of his terms.  And, he's eying a deal with Greenland now.   He really is making America great, this is just incredible.    Ravens coach John Harbaugh is sacked after 18 years but they fired the wrong guy.  I'll prove it to you.   Sporting KC has a new head coach, the A's can't get the trademark in Las Vegas and the media has a new story to try to take your eyes and ears off all the winning right now.

   CNN has finally lifted its ban on allowing Stephen Miller on to talk about the Trump administration but they may be rethinking it.  Miller was in the war room for the Maduro extraction and is obviously the guy who really has Trump's ear.  Wait until you hear how it went with Jake Tapper.    JD Vance had his home attacked by a rock throwing, hammer swinging psycho named William.   He goes by another name but it's not Bill.     Trump has lowered the vax schedule for American kids from 72 to 11.  Great progress.  Hilton hotels has a Bud Light problem on its hands.    In sports, Chiefs DC Steve Spagnuola is getting some interest to be a head coach.  Bill Self has some younger KU fans crawling all up in his kitchen right now over the Darryn Peterson situation.  Texas Tech's new quarterback has a billionaire paying him more in one year than Shadeur Sanders will make with the Cleveland Browns in 4 years.    The FCS title game was old school college fun and our Final Final is the end of the monkey business in Prairie Village.

   I still get goosebumps thinking about the amazing military operation the USA conducted in Venezuela to extract narco drug lord Nicolas Maduro.  It may take months before we know just how great it was but with 150 planes in the sky and plenty of boots on the ground, it was close to perfect.   The world is amazed... and they should be.   Venezuelans cheer the news while hard left pols in America that used to call for Maduro to be taken out now say it's illegal because it's Trump.  They really love any country but ours.    The Chiefs season ends rolling craps in Vegas but they have a high draft pick and an excellent off season set up to completely remake this team.    Royals manager Matt Quatraro gets a contract extension, KU can't shake its Peterson problem and Mizzou beats the Florida Gators, again.    Our Final Final is a Guinness Record at a world famous beach.

   The Royals suddenly have everyone in Missouri clamoring to keep them from crossing the state line and real estate executive Stan Weber has a perfect location downtown and a suggestion for the Royals on how to make it happen.  This is good stuff.    Then, we talk about Andy Reid's future as the HOF coach says he's coming back.  The question is, has his window closed?    There's some tasty matchups Saturday and Sunday in the NFL that have Super Bowl implications.    Where exactly is Mizzou football after their season fell apart?  We preview the college playoff games and the world's strongest beer is illegal in Missouri and a host of other states.

   President Trump says a peace deal will be in place soon or never in the Russia/Ukraine war.  We have the details on how close it is an what's holding it up after a summit with Trump and Zelenskyy in Florida.   You Tuber Nick Shirley is doing the job the mainstream media refuse to do uncovering fraud by Somalians in Minneapolis.  It's billions of dollars and over 100 million people have watched his videos.  This is bigger than just a story on fraud.   Union Station lights up blue and suddenly everyone in Missouri wants to love on the Royals.  Do you think the team remembers how poorly the Royals have been treated the past 18 months?   Gronk has a prediction on Travis Kelce's future you didn't see coming, we cover the NFL playoff picture for you and Mizzou fizzles out in the Gator Bowl.

   Let's call this a Christmas Bonus.    We hope you had a fantastic holiday and look forward to a great two weeks with some down time.  I can't do a podcast on Friday due to travel but we have a couple nice segment from the radio show on Wednesday we think you may enjoy.  First, will the over reaction to the Chiefs move to Kansas simmer down?  Then, why don't the Chiefs have a site identified.  The most obvious reason could be shocking to you.      Also, if the Royals have a "complex" situation according to Senate president Ty Masterson but have met the December 31 STAR bond deadline, what is going on?  There's only two things it could be.    And finally, 60 Minutes pulled a hit piece on Trump last week and now the president is getting the last laugh.  You have to hear this.

   It's your Christmas Eve Special at KKHI as football expert and Tower Properties President Stan Weber takes a deep dive into what the Chiefs have just pulled off to build a new stadium.  This is insight you will only get here.   Then, don't tell Stan the season isn't worth finishing as he's livid the Chiefs quit at Tennessee.  And the College Football Playoff is about to get good over the holidays but it has a really ugly flaw.  Merry Christmas to all and thanks so much for listening to and supporting our podcast.

   KC's major league sports teams moving to Kansas has always been inevitable.  It's not just that the STAR bond money is too good to pass up, in the case of the Chiefs, they had no option to build new with an entertainment development anywhere in Missouri.  The team is fibbing.  This wasn't close, it wasn't decided last week and was more like a 48-3 football beatdown.  No Missourians should rejoice they aren't on the hook for it all and can look forward to lower income taxes.  Seems like a win/win to me.    The winner in all this, of course, is Clark Hunt.  His team is really, really good at football.  But his business is next level American Capitalism elite.    Mizzou hoops may be in big trouble this year after a disaster against Illinois.  Bill Self says Darryn Peterson's family is now involved in deciding whether he will play or not.  Oh, boy.     Trump bounce back in polling in a big way.  He announces a new golden fleet of Trump Ships and my childhood root beer stand could be returning to KC in a meaningful way.

   Monday will be better than Sunday for the Chiefs as the state of Kansas is set to announce somewhere between $2-$3 billion will be given to ownership to build a new stadium, offices and practice facilities.  This the beginning of the end of the Truman Sports Complex.    The team is absolutely embarrassed on the field against he lowly Titans Sunday.  I can't remember anything this ugly.    The college football playoff got it's first road team winners ever this weekend but the other two games are not even worthy of watching.  This system has a big flaw.    Mizzou takes on Illinois in the Braggin' Rights game in St. Louis.    At Turning Point's AmericaFest, comedian Rob Schneider's jokes about Candace Owens prove one of the most powerful things about American Conservatism.    CBS pulls a 60 minutes piece on the CECOT prison in El Salvador, what's this about?  A reviewer doesn't care much for 1587 Steakhouse and Powerball's super sized jackpot would make one great stocking stuffer.

   The December 31 deadline for STAR Bonds in Kansas to finance 70 percent of a new stadium for the Chiefs and Royals appears to be exactly what we have said here for three years now... an offer too good to refuse.  We have the details on what a appears to be decisions by both teams to follow the yellow brick road.    Mizzou quarterback Beau Pribula has entered the transfer portal ahead of the team's Gator Bowl matchup against Virginia.  NASCAR driver Greg Biffle, his family, and three friends die in a plane crash.  He was a great driver and humanitarian.    Trump says he doesn't need congress to do whatever he wants in Venezuela and give the greatest reason why.  And Lee Sterling is here from www.paramountsports.com with his point spread picks.

   President Trump addressed the nation Wednesday night, somehow hoodwinking all the networks to air something that was nothing more than a political speech filled with stuff we already knew.  He seemed nervous, grumpy and the teleprompter threw him off several times.  It was not his best night and Americans, one week from Christmas, don't want to be told that money isn't tight.  I don't understand this one.    Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe's plan to eliminate state income tax in Missouri gets a boost from members of a key GOP committee.  Let's go!    Dan Bongino's future is behind a microphone and not with the FBI.  We knew from the start this was a bad idea and it could be a sign Missouri's former Attorney General is the next Director of the FBI.    We've known a new Steven Spielberg movie is set in KC for quite some time as photos of on locations scenes filmed on the east coast have been around for months.  Now we have the official trailer for "Disclosure Day" which hits theaters June 12.  I have details of what it looks like and what it's about.    The Chiefs give generic information about Patrick Mahomes return to the field next year, the Royals release a statement about a new ballpark, the Chicago Bears threaten a move to Indiana and the College Football Playoff starts Friday    Our Final Final is a sticky pair of kicks from the breakfast joint Dennys.

   President Trump has announced the United States has surrounded Venezuela with a complete blockade of sanctioned oil tankers in an effort to cut off all the money flowing into that country.  At the same time, he's announced he will address the nation Wednesday night from the White House in a speech that's expected to feature accomplishments and plans for 2026.  Let's hope he stays on script.    Marco Rubio makes a bold statement about what will keep him from running for president in 2028.      The Royals seem to be infuriating everyone except the people that make the decision on whether they can build a ballpark at 119th and Nall.  The City of Lenexa is trying to pull another crazy liberal scam on its good citizens after failing with a homeless shelter.  Wait until you hear this joke.    There's a ton of reporting on Travis Kelce's future and we'll explain why you shouldn't be listening to any of it just yet.  Darryn Peterson sits for the 8th time in 12 games as KU gets an easy win.   Kansas State is losing its only good wide receiver to the transfer portal and our Final Final is not great news for KC.

   It seemed too good to be true Monday night when everyone was jumping for joy Patrick Mahomes got after it and immediately had surgery to repair a torn ACL.  The Chiefs told us there was nothing more and Andy Reid said it would be a quick recovery.  Wrong.      Dr. Dan Cooper, in Dallas,  operated almost immediately after diagnosing a torn LCL along with the ACL.  We explain why this had to be done fast, hear from an expert doctor and share Tom Brady's thoughts on what is ahead for the future Hall of Fame quarterback.  This won't be easy.    Then, how in the world are we hearing more Eli Drinkwitz rumors, this time around the open job at Michigan?  Bill Self gives an update on Darryn Peterson that is encouraging.    In the news, it feels like they are hiding information at Brown University after the shooting a few days ago.      The ghost fleet of oil ships breaking international law is outrageously large.  We share some thoughts on the tragic story of the Reiner family and Joe Biden wears the wrong hat to an Eagles game.   Our Final Final is the story about a license plate in Texas you won't believe.  Heck, you may want to get this plate.

   The Chiefs season is over for all intents and purposes and it's time to get real.  You have an aging quarterback that has slowed down and now has an ACL surgery.  High priced older players that don't play to the level expected and a team that is poorly coached.  Ya, that's pretty much everyone.  The only thing to say is there is no continuing with the same plan to keep the band together.  If the Chiefs want to chase more Super Bowls with Patrick Mahomes they need a completely different blueprint for Part II.    A pastor at Journey church in Lee's Summit jokes about these sloppy Chiefs in his sermon to inspire the congregation.    The Royals trade for a left fielder, KU's Darren Peterson gets hurt again.  Trump's coin toss at Army-Navy was an incredible scene.  Taylor Swift hands out massive cash bonuses to her crew.    Then, a new documentary by KMBC Channel 9 took 19 months for Donna Pittman and her team to produce.  It features Kansas City area women that served in Vietnam and it airs Tuesday night at 7:00.  It sounds incredible.    Our Final Final is a cold sack of burgers.

   Its a Fun Friday for sure but we start today with three bad guys that we seem to just accept as bad guys and they are sort of mocking us all.  What's going on?    A pair of tv peeps are playing the race card in the strangest of ways and it truly feels like desperation for a ploy that's on life support.    You won't believe how much the last pennies ever minted fetched at auction.    A Chiefs player makes a video of his locker and posts it and America is now hammering the Chiefs ownership for being cheap.  The Royals sign an outfielder not worth celebrating.  The Tennessee Titans ban their sideline reporter from their team charter flights.  Michael Jordan wins a big settlement in his suit against NASCAR and Trump wants to make winnings from gambling tax free.    Then, Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com has our point spread picks and our Final Final is one of the saddest cases of TDS anywhere in the world.

   First up, we could sure use your help donating to the www.robertsrobinson.com Meet the Need Toy Drive over the next week.  If you can't get to Excelsior Springs, maybe you could send a little something via Amazon to 1501 Kearney Road in Excelsior.  Any new toy at any price is greatly appreciated.   Then, a massive salute to our Coast Guard and Navy for seizing an oil tanker in that's been operating illegally for quite some time.  Even a judge signed off on taking her and Trump says he's keeping the oil.  You have to hear this.    The Jewish Community Center is not speaking publicly against the Royals moving to Overland Park.  The Chiefs are making donations to Missouri Republicans again and Michigan's football coach gets fired and goes bonkers.  He's now in jail.    Then, Stan Weber with a football feast and he's one proud papa as his son has basically come home to coach at K-State.  And, Stan will not give up on the Chiefs until they are mathematically out of the playoffs.   Our Final Final is not a funny TDS story, it's a sad one about a celebrity that has friends and family feeling helpless.

   Who even knew T-Mobile still had 3500 employees at 119th and Nall in Overland Park at what used to be the Sprint Campus?  Well, the Royals now  controll it all and T-Mobile says the owners are not allowing T-Mobile to stay after their lease expires in 2029.  We all know what that means.    Trump's talking affordability as drivers line up around the country for really, really cheap gas.    The J6 bomber, Brian Cole Jr, is a bit of a gender twisted man as he spent hours and hours online as a "Brony."  You won't believe what this is.    Consumers complain Instacart is gouging them, I have a solution for them.    The Royals get a rare off season win in the draft lottery as the draw for position moved the team up 10 spots in the draft.  What a gift!   Philip Rivers is back as he signs on to the practice squad for the Colts.  Oregon's QB is threatening to not play in the college playoff first round game.  Big 12 commish  Brett Yormark blasts the AD at Notre Dame.  Troy Aikman cuts off UCLA and Bill Self names his MVP so far this season.   Our Final Final is what Amelia Earhart's mom thought happened to her daughter in 1937.

   First thing up today is your invitation to join the Kietzman's at the North Pole/South Pole Christmas experience on December 18.  We'll start in the 5:00pm hour and enjoy the fun until 8:00.  We are taking reservations... just send yours via email to info@thejewelkc.com.  Let's do this!    The J6 pipe bomber was know to the FBI in 2021 according to documents from the "select committee."  What a surprise.    Sports media guru Dave Portnoy has the worst meltdown yet and is now apologizing for ranting Raiders coach Pete Carroll should be murdered.  This is ugly.    A sold out group in Leawood seems to agree the Royals are great for pretty much anyone else except, of course, Leawood.   Mizzou coach Eli Drinkwitz spits facts about Bowl Games while ISU's AD has the best commentary yet on the financial situation for athletic departments paying players these days.    Will the Royals make moves at the Winter Meetings?  And Trump raises a fortune for the Kennedy Center.

   Sunday night's awful performance against the Texans at Arrowhead will be the game remembered as the end of an era.  The Chiefs have had an amazing decade of football but it's obviously time to re-think everything. This season is toast.   We know the teams coming to Kansas City for the World Cup in June and we're pretty sure you can only find on of the eight on a map.    The College Football Playoff is set and it's leading to the demise of the bowl system.  Everyone is turning down post season games now.    Trump is furious that Zelensky hasn't even read the peace plan he has offered to end the war with Russia.  National Parks "free entry" days steal headlines that look bad for the President.  And a saloon owner is now getting death threat over his free beer offer.

   It's not a conspiracy if its true and what do you know, the Biden administration never wanted to find the J6 pipe bomber.  This is exactly what all us conspiracy folks thought.  Who could have guessed it?   Ilhan Omar pokes at ICE, this can't end well for her voters.  Another drug boat is vaporized as Dems keep defending the terrorists.  Jackson County's new exec is working on the tax problems big time.    The Chiefs say they are having their best practices of the year this week and I'll tell you why I hate hearing it.  The Border War heats up Sunday at T-Mobile as everyone waits to see if Darryn Peterson plays.  Collin Klein is announced as the new coach at KSU.  The World Cup draw is here and Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com has your point spread picks.

   Chris Klieman retired from coaching football Wednesday after 7 years at Kansas State, a whole bunch of wins and a Big 12 title.  So why was this all so somber and strange?   Even AD Gene Taylor came in after Klieman spoke (and took no questions) and started talking about retirement himself.  Reports everywhere confirm that Collin Klein is the next head coach but Taylor said he hasn't talked to the former KSU star and doesn't have his phone number.  Stan Weber will try to clear this up for us.   Then, it's all Chiefs and Texans and the AFC playoff picture with Stan.     Our Final Final is the opposite of "Play Ball!"

   What an incredible cabinet meeting Monday for President Trump tackling everything from narco boats to SNAP benefits.  But to focus was MONEY.  We are here to detail what Trump Accounts can be for you, how taxes may be eliminated for millions and how we get our money back and punish Somalians ripping us off.  Here we go!    In sports, UCONN played elite defense at Allen Field House in the second half and comes from behind to beat KU.  The Jayhawks, again, didn't have their star freshman.  Mizzou meets KU Sunday in KC after falling on the road at Notre Dame.  This was a story of not playing well enough defensively.    The man that broke into a gated neighborhood and hopped Travis Kelce's fence gets a slap on the wrist in Leawood.  Who'd have guessed?  Analyst Jeff Saturday says the dumbest thing ever about Patrick Mahomes.  The NFL announces a singer for the black national anthem at the Super Bowl.    A staffer at the golf course that hosted the Ryder Cup blasts back at whiny American golfer Justin Thomas in a perfect way.  And Lane Kiffin's daughter is bringing something special with her from Ole Miss to LSU.

   Kristi Noem posted some serious truths and tough words on Monday that take a stance on illegal aliens like no other.  It's beautiful and this is her best way to communicate.   At the same time, a senator from Ohio has a perfect plan for American citizenship that should be passed as law ASAP.    A Trump fan has a great idea for him to end all this gender ideology nonsense.  Elton John says Trump could be on of the GOATS of the White House if he does one thing.  A listener sends an email in that is just wonderful.   In sports, Andy Reid gives up one of the most bizarre quotes ever while former KC quarterback Alex Smith drops truth bombs about this year's team.    KSU basketball coach Jerome Tang already seems to be a dead man walking in Manhattan losing his third straight with millions of dollars worth of players.   Social media influencers were all over KC Monday for the start of sports wagering in Missouri, golfer Justin Thomas is still whining about the Ryder Cup and two legendary broadcasters that have never called a basketball game together are about to.

   It wasn't the perfect Sunday for the Chiefs but something did happen for Kansas City that provides a sliver a daylight on a path to the playoffs.      Coach Lane Kiffen leaves Ole Miss for LSU even as his team is entering the College Football Playoff.  He's now the bad guy and I don't like him much either.  But he's clearly not the problem.  We'll explain what is.   Mizzou and KSU are headed to bowl games after finishing their regular seasons, KU is not.  Lee's Summit is headed to the state football championship after starting the season 0-4.  Sports betting is now live in Missouri.   President Trump eyes Venezuela as he works toward peace in Ukraine.  A former reporter in KC goes overboard on Pete Hegseth and a saloon in Idaho is offering free beer for a month if you help local authorities round up illegal aliens.

   In many ways it was a somber holiday after an Afghan national goes crazy in DC and kills a member of the National Guard and leaves another in serious condition in the hospital.  This all has a very hollow feeling to it as we have allowed our country to become something it shouldn't be.    The Chiefs fall to the Cowboys and refs in Dallas as the playoff picture becomes dire for Kansas City.  This is becoming a season to forget.    And Mizzzou coach Eli Drinkwitz is handed another pile of cash as rumors flew he may be looking at other jobs.  We explain why this is crazy.

   It's a great time to be reflecting and thankful for what we have living in the greatest country in the history of man.  We'll share a few thoughts.    You sure wouldn't think dems are very thankful as universities are promoting Thanksgiving as a "day of mourning" and a mission to "decolonize" the holiday.  This is happening while their leaders are trying to derail our military.  Unbelievable.    Press secretary Karoline Leavitt has some family drama going on as her nephews mom is being processed to get deported after being here illegally for over 25 years.    We have the story of the very beginning of the Plaza lights in KC.    KU rolls Syracuse in the Players Era tourney and will play for big money Wednesday night.  KSU coach Jerome Tang apologizes again and already for being an unprepared, bad coach.  When will it end?  An ESPN announcer makes an outrageous statement about a backup player being the most powerful black man since Obama.    Isiah Pacheco is back for the Chiefs Thursday and Lee Sterling has our point spread picks.    Our Final Final is a blast from the past that has a new pitch to sell.  You may just say, WOW.

   It's a holiday week and while it sounds silly hear a transportation secretary ask Americans to dress a little nicer and be a little kinder to one another at the airport, maybe he makes a good point.    Another activist judge tosses out cases Trump's DOJ brings, this time for the most ridiculous reason ever.  It has nothing to do with merits of the case.    A senator from Arizona is now making threats of retribution on anyone going after Senator Mark Kelly for imploring military members to ignore orders.    A small town in Kansas plays a big part in the Macy's Day Parade in New York.  My man Chris at www.bstock.net send me a gem of a post on how the Chiefs can win the division AND did a really sweet thing for my mom.    KU beats Notre Dame without star player Darryn Peterson.  K-State is at Indiana Tuesday while Mizzou gets a gimme.  Sophie Cunningham backs up Michael Porter Junior's comments about 8th grade boys being able to beat a WNBA team and a man known as "Russian Popeye" has a huge problem on his hands.

   The old adage "stats are for losers" almost applied to the Chiefs against the Colts except for one big, big thing.  The Chiefs won.  If you looked at all the numbers, this should have been a KC blowout as the defense was just spectacular against the best runningback in the NFL.  But it's the same troubles that have plagued this team all year that put the Chiefs in a really tough spot.  Penalties, sloppy turnovers and bad special teams.  Take the win, clean up the rest for the home stretch.    It looks like it actually got tougher to make the playoffs as all three teams at 7-4, in the playoffs, have wins over KC too.  That means the Chiefs are two games back of all of them.    It was a bummer of a college Saturday but nobody had it worse than KSU coach Chris Klieman who just lost it in his post game news conference, literally crying and asking for respect.  Oh my.     Trump wants to fix up Joint Base Andrews including their golf courses.  Does this guy miss anything? Wait until you hear who he's asking for help.   Also, Elon Musk nails it when it comes to our homeless problem in America, the AP is suing Trump over the Gulf of America and one of our sponsors is a very proud dad as his daughter's college volleyball team wins a national title. 

   The shutdown and more has put President Trump, for the first time, on a little thin ice with some of his base.  It's all about the economy and he seems to know it.  Now it needs to work.    A famous burger chain from the midwest has a franchiser declaring bankruptcy that on the surface doesn't make sense.    Tom Brady trolls Chiefs haters with his latest power poll.  Lee Sterling is here with point spread picks and you absolutely have the hear the story about our Song of the Week artist and an unbelievable song that will get you thinking.  You probably have never heard of this guy.

   You know one of our  pillars at KKHI for yasty content is when people actually say things.  Not political lies or throwing mud... it's when you get something from the inside that you may have thought was true but didn't know for sure.  We've got a couple of those today.  First, a billionaire confirms something we've all thought about how things are inside Trump's White House.  The other, well, it's Gracie Hunt.  She has a few words for the Commissioner of the NFL and we LOVE it.    For the first time in Patrick Mahomes' Hall of Fame career, he's playing a regular season game that is a "must win."  It's true.  This Sunday's game against the Colts is almost certainly the difference between turning the corner and making a playoff run that scares the hell out of the AFC, or sliding into the ditch and calling 911.    Stan Weber will join us to discuss a matchup he says is really hard for the Chiefs.  We'll talk about 2PM's overthrows on deep balls and 4th quarter failures and a really rough schedule this weekend for our college teams.   Our Final Final involves bacon that's not for eating.  Hmmmmm.

   If you saw pictures or videos of the elegant dinner Tuesday night at the White House all you could think is President Trump is making dinners great again.  Oh, and we need a new ballroom at the White House.  Wait until you hear this guest list.    A listener sent an incredible email about what he sees every day in the trucking industry and you will be shocked.  Marco Rubio announces a whopping number of VISA's he's revoked because people come here and do bad things.   In sports, KU played Duke hard and tough but just didn't have enough without star guard Darryn Peterson.  But it left you asking the question if KU is better than Duke if they did have him.  A survey in Kansas regarding new ballparks is a total waste of time.  HOA's near the 119th and Nalls site seem to think they have some power in preventing the Royals from building.    The computer says the Chiefs are 50/50 to make the playoffs, I'll take the YES side of that bet and we explain why.  Callaway sells Top Golf and our Final Final is an online trend of how to get the best of Porch Pirates.

   Illegal aliens committing crimes has reached critical mass all over America.  After an ICE operation in Charlotte, 21,000 students call in sick for school. 140 Venezuelan gang bangers are caught in a sex ring in Texas and ICE rounds up 10 bad guys in Kansas.  Then, the cherry on top.  We have an alien terrorist from Uzbekistan driving through Kansas with a Pennsylvania CDL license.  What could possible go wrong with a terrorist driving an 18 wheeler?    So what do we do in KC?  We rally up to release the Epstein files from decades ago.  What a joke.    KC car break ins continue to grow in Westport and so do thefts.    In the aftermath of the Chiefs loss, did you notice all the haters that are out celebrating and bashing the team?  But there is one thing NONE of them will say and it's hilarious.    KU plays Duke Tuesday and they are a massive underdog without Darryn Peterson.  KSU and MU win Monday.  Stephen A. Smith says politicians from one party won't go on his podcast and Marco Rubio warns World Cup fans about coming to America.  

   The Chiefs have gone from the team that almost lost to the team that almost won.  It's pretty obvious watching these guys that the game is almost always more important to their opponent than it is for KC.  If that doesn't change, this season is a train wreck.  But while Denver won its Super Bowl on Sunday at Mile High, there's just too many games left to count out the Chiefs.  If they find the fire, they will make it in easily and could be really hard to knock out.  If they keep up with the slop, this season could be over in 10 days.    KU hoops is suffering the modern drama of paying a great player that wants the money but doesn't want to be there.  It's now obvious to anyone watching that Darryn Peterson, his agent, his team and likely his family are taking Bill Self for a ride.  This is why older coaches are retiring.  The players are in control now.    It's a big week in DC as Putin says he wants to meet with Trump again.  Same for Maduro in Venzuela.  Trump has ordered the Epstein files released and we are about to get a huge change with the SNAP program.    The Cleveland Clinic jabbed up thousands of employees with a flu shot last year and found some incredible results.  Spoiler alert... don't get the shot unless your doctor tells you to.    A midwest city is going to charge you a fee to work your car accident and a rock star obliterates the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame calling it "shameful."

   Homeland security is now taking aim at the non citizen mayor of Coldwater, KS for voting illegally and criminal convictions in his past.  Hey, they told us this never happens.  If he's been a fraud for 40 years in Kansas, how many more are there nationwide.  We have a lot of work to do.    Right in the middle of an interview segment bashing President Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, the host reads a legal disclaimer prepared by lawyers.  You have to hear this.    KC has federal money in fund to buy new busses but they won't be purchasing.  They need it to operate during the World Cup instead.  It's crazy how they are stealing our money to host this event.   In sports, I have a bold prediction about the New England Patriots, Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com is here with his picks for MU, KSU and the Chiefs and our song of the week is a wonderful history lesson you will enjoy.

   President Trump signed the continuing CR Wednesday night ending our "national nightmare" and "suffering" that we all endured. Please.  Spare me the hype.  Roll up your sleeves, work on everything that's broken and get back to us when you're making progress.    Sharice Davids, of course, voted NO to opening the government.  Wait until you hear why.    The US Ag secretary is promising huge announcements next week to clean up SNAP funding as she calls it "perhaps the most corrupt and dysfunctional program in American history."    Pat McAfee is still upset people reacted poorly to his interview with Trump.    Then, college sports business is bugging millions of us in a real way.  We ask business man and college sports expert Stan Weber what he would do to kill the chaos.   And we spend a good deal of time on the Chiefs/Broncos game Sunday that suddenly looks like the fork in the road for the Chiefs.    Our Final Final is a great mortgage idea that takes days, not 50 years.

   There's a shocking piece of journalism at the Daily Caller website as we have learned the Chinese own a 27 acre trailer park that shares a fence with Whiteman Air Force base in Missouri.  Are you kidding me?  This is a huge story and even bigger problem.    Kansas Senator Roger Marshall says he and the GOP will have a new health care plan by Christmas.  Spoiler alert, it also sounds like a big government handout.    Speaking of handouts, a journalist in Ukraine has found stacks and stacks of unsealed, stolen cash from the Kansas City Federal Reserve.  Zelensky is literally stealing from us, we explain how.    Elon Musk sums up the sad state of affairs of taxation in America in one brilliant post.  Pat McAfee gets President Trump on his show and then tries to apologize to liberal media for it.  Lame.   Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe didn't take long to respond to our report that the Chiefs are talking to NASCAR and the state of Kansas regarding land acquisition at the speedway.  Kehoe says he can put a fabric roof on cables above Arrowhead and the Chiefs have no comment.    KU star Darryn Peterson has officially turned the Jayhawks into an NBA team.  He makes millions, he takes games off when he doesn't want to play and they are coming to T-Mobile Center in KC.  We finally have an NBA team!    And our Final Final is a pair of sexy bridesmaids.

   While President Trump is posting about not allowing fat people into the United States including ex pats like Rosie O'Donnell, healthcare is in focus everywhere after this silly shutdown.  But lost in the shuffle was a giant win on election day one week ago in Texas.  They amended their constitution and it's glorious.    The state of Kansas will no longer allow a silly grace period for stupid mail in voting.  After meeting with business leaders hoping to land the Royals at Crown Center I came away with a strong feeling Overland Park is in the lead.   Chiefs players, including Josh Simmons are back at Arrowhead today.  Mahomes' former coach Mike Kafka is the new interim coach for the Giants.  Gambling scandals are rocking sports but the blame is misguided.  I'll straighten that out for ya.  And Jessica submits an all time Final Final.

   The Kansas City Chiefs are currently in negotiations with NASCAR and the state of Kansas to acquire land just west of Kansas Speedway for a potential new domed stadium.     Multiple sources confirm with KKHI that a land acquisition agreement is the final piece the Chiefs need in place to make a decision on whether to build a new stadium or renovate Arrowhead again.  We have all the details of what is a very high level, high stakes negotiation.     Then, some good and some bad in the NFL on Sunday for the Chiefs playoff picture.  Trump has quite a day at the Lions/Commanders game. KU and MU lose in opposite fashions Saturday and the Senate is close to re-opening the federal government.   And veterans, listen up.  Tuesday is Veterans Day and veteran Chris Benson  from www.thrivemediakc.com joins us to talk about service to country and some amazing deals just for veterans on Tuesday.   Our Final Final is the spookiest lottery story ever.

   Almost 40 days into the government shutdown and the predictable seems to be playing out, the GOP is extending an olive branch and tasty goodies for the Dems to re-open.  This is pathetic.    Former CIA Director John Brennan could be in serious trouble as the DOJ is starting to issue subpoenas for a grand jury.    The Chiefs have a wandering eye so strong that requests for proposals are out for architects and builders and  a new stadium in KCK according to a report from Pete Mundo at KCMO Talk Radio.    Meanwhile, the Royals have surveyed their fans and the results trickling out are hilarious.    The  Broncos are the best defense, and the ugliest team in all of football.  They also now have the league's best record.    Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com is here with the pigskin picks and our song of the week is about the new communist New York City.

   The Kansas City Star headline boasts "Nation Hit by Blue Wave."  What a joke.  These were the most lame elections ever and anyone trying to make anything of these is like a sports fan declaring the Chiefs are bad because they lost a preseason game.  What a sham.    You won't believe the composition of the electorate in NY City.  If there is one alarming thing from Tuesday... this is it.    Kansas AG Kris Kobach has charged the mayor of Coldwater, Kansas for committing election fraud.  CBS ratings sizzle for the Chiefs/Bills and 60 Minutes with Donald Trump.  The sky isn't falling, Vegas still loves the Chiefs.   And then we have a great conversation with a young sports radio host that is moving more and more toward politics.  His name is Paul Gallant and he was wrongly called a whacky liberal by Tucker Carlson.  Paul is the host of the "Gallant Says" podcast on You Tube and all other pod platforms, and while he hasn't jumped into the deep end of conservative talk just yet, maybe we can provide him with an outlet right here at KKHI.

   The new map in Kansas to take away a dem seat in congress has hit a snag and will be delayed until at least next year even as California passes a law that swings 5 red seats to blue.     President Trump says he's just freezing all SNAP payments until the Democrats re-open the government.  I voted for this.  The program has bloated from 17 million recipients to 42 million since Trump was last president.  It needs a total overhaul.    Target stores are laying off 1800 workers and it has nothing to do with the economy.  Walmart and Costco are booming but Target played a nasty political game for too long and the have learned the meaning of FAFO.    Salvy is back with the Royals for two more years.  The Chiefs totally whiff on trading for runningback Breece Hall.  Women's soccer has quite a controversy taking place and it may be centered in KC.  LIV Golf is expanding and our Final Final is the strangest Thanksgiving invitation ever.

      Former Vice President Dick Cheney has died at the age of 84.  Yes, he loved America and yes, he loved war.  And yes, this podcast host once upon a time believed in what he was selling us.  But mostly, his death is a reminder of what we used to be forced to vote for.  As VP, Dems hated him almost as much as they do Trump.  In death, they will remember him as a great steward of the neo con deep state.     Bernie Sanders appears on a podcast and pretty much predicts the Democrat party is over and will splinter into two parties.   Ben Shapiro, on his podcast, hammers Tucker Carlson... we'll play a clip.    Former Senator Joe Manchin gives the clearest statement yet on why Dems are in trouble while a crazy dem in Montana running for office leaves the most vile voicemail you've ever heard for Montana Senatory Tim Sheahy.     Left Tackle Josh Simmons is back with the Chiefs.   I"m going there.... new KU star Darryn Peterson looks a lot like Michael Jordan.    And the Royals are sending a survey out to the fans about a new ballpark and that can only mean one thing.

   It's all here today as President Trump unloads a barrage of policy goals during an epic 60 Minutes interview right after the Chiefs/Bills game.  This appearance was no accident and it's yet another sign the new ownership at CBS is going to play things fair.    On the field, the Bills played what I believe is the best game they have played in the Josh Allen era.  Ever.  And still, somehow, the Chiefs had a chance to pull it out.  Amazing.    K-State gets worked over in a similar fashion against Tech and it sets up a big week for Patrick Mahomes at his Alma Mater.  KU rolls OSU and Mizzou preps for A and M.    The World Series was, perhaps, the greatest ever and it was definitely the best game 7 I've ever seen.  And Stan Weber his here to talk about the Chiefs playoff chances (spoiler: he's not worried) and we ask if the Broncos are a dirty team.    Our Final Final is a chance for you to score a little Christmas cash.

   There's something very strange happening with members of Trump's cabinet that if we read it in a history book about the Lincoln administration we would have thought it was the scariest of times.  Is something big going on?  We take a look at a series of things that point to something historic.    Meanwhile, President Trump has decided he wants to go nuclear option and end the filibuster.  Its something nobody has really wanted to happen but he gives a really solid reason.    The teachers unions have been going nuts over the shutdown and for good reason.  It's not their funding, that just plugs along.  It's something else and its huge.   Mizzou basketball coach Dennis Gates is asked about playing Howard University and a scholarship both schools have from a former reporter in KC and in the process seems to let  it out of the bag he has TDS.    Lee Sterling of www.paramountsports.com has his biggest plays of the year this weekend as we discuss the Chiefs/Bills and KSU and KU games.    And our Final Final is a return of the Song of Week suggested by a listener.

   While we slept, President Trump had completed a shorter meeting than planned with President XI of China and has a deal in hand.   Soy bean farmers are rejoicing and it may include oil from Alaska.  Trump calls it a "12" on a scale of 0-10.  Details are still emerging but we share what we know.   JD Vance was at a Turning Point event at Ole Miss and just dazzled the crowd of over 10,000 Wednesday night.  CBS News is undergoing massive changes and is reportedly saying goodbye to its "race and culture" unit as part of a big reduction in workforce.    In sports, the Blue Jays take a 3-2 lead in the World Series.   Stan joins us to previews the Chiefs/Bills big game on Sunday.  We also chat about the turns in the season for KSU, MU and KU.     Then, a message in a bottle story from down under that dates back to World War I.

   With all the democrat fixation on the Trump Ballroom being built, one democrat stands out above them all and is calling for something so crazy.... we hope it actually happens.  The Ballroom Blitz appears doomed to backfire.      At the same time, pride in America for democrat voters is at a 25 year low.  Sounds like a win to me.    Changes in some of our biggest cities are happening at the top of ICE.  We have the deets on how the Border Patrol will now influence a change in procedure for mass deportations and Phase 2.    Trump scores more deals in Asia as he gets ready to meet with Xi of China.    The Chiefs have one stat this year that stands out above all others.  A new defensive tackle signed by KC is very familiar to all of us.   The Colts new female owner is changing the game on how to run a team... and she's got the top team in the AFC all of the sudden.   KU's Darryn Peterson sits  in an exhibition win, Toronto ties the World Series at two games a piece and our Final Final is a numbers game.

   The Chiefs kicked aside some early sloppiness to blast the Washington Commanders with a dazzling second half performance that was near perfection.   The Chiefs ran it, Mahomes threw it and everybody got in on the action.  A pair of defenders go their first career interceptions putting away a struggling team that brought all they had.  KC is still in 3rd place in the AFC West but it's not a stretch to say the next three game (@Bills, @Denver, Colts) will determine the one seed in conference.    The governor of Kansas and the owner of the Chiefs both talked about stadium issues on Monday and it feels like nothing has gone anywhere.  Could somebody please do a deal and make a decision?    We'll revisit K-State's big win over KU Saturday and Mizzou resetting its season as a lot has changed in a short period of time.    Monday night's game 3 of the World Series was a 6 hour and 39 minute marathon that saw the Dodgers win in historic fashion in the 18th inning.   And wait until you hear what Shohei Ohtani did, the most incredible stat ever.    KU basketball has a rising star you need to know about and our Final Final updates you on the jewelry heist in Paris last week.

   Everybody believes it's going to be easy work for the Chiefs Monday night against the team that should still be called the Redskins but let's not forget Washington was in the NFC title game last year.    Starting QB Jayden Daniels is out but Stan Weber tells us that for a game or two, there won't be much difference with Marcus Mariota under center.  We'll break down the matchup and ask the question if Washington coach Dan Quinn disrespects the game looking silly wearing his hat backwards.
