haha well it’s interesting that you know every single one of his listeners political beliefs. Like I said I don’t listen often, but when I do listen I haven’t hear them talk politics.
KSR sometimes is painful to listen to.....Ellen Degeneres?

Thread got punted here from HOB, i presume.
My stance on MJ is same, he's making or made a significant mistake by backing these divisive lies promulgating through our country; he should've had the intelligence to recognize or the integrity to be a force for good, use his platform for that and reconciliation, not make things worse.
But I stopped listening long ago, would still be a fan and all, found the content entertaining... but anyone who supports this evil nonsense being used to exploit people for ulterior motives gets zero patronage from me and I proactively urge others to follow suit until or if they course correct.

I checked out of KSR a few months back, but I did listen around the time Shannon was doing his walk, he's the best one on the show by far. Can't even take Lemond, I know he's playing a character but he is so bad.
I don't get the sense of an "agenda" at all from Matt. I know he's on the left side of the aisle and he supports a lot of liberal policy, but in other ways, he's quite centrist. Based on politics alone (I don't want it headed into the typical rhetoric) he reminds me of Clinton.
The guy knows how to run a radio show. This has to be a terrible time for him to try to manufacture content.
Yet you’re listening to Kentucky Sports Radio when there hasn’t been Kentucky Sports in 6 months. Either Matt knows what he’s doing or you’re a sucker.
Yeah, I was serious, evidently wrong, but serious. I guess I will have to tune in and see. But as noted above, I have heard Matt entertain callers on his show with different perspectives. Some he gave time to others not so much. But doing a two hour radio show every day when there are virtually no local sports going on, you have to do something to fill the air. I enjoy it when I tune in but do not do so regularly.

Just listened, he did not actually interview Ellen lol.
Of course he likes Ellen, of course he thought she was actually a nice person. He has the same opinion as every other npc has outside of sports journalism. It is always surprising how someone can see right though dbags like Pat Forde and Pete Thamel, but can't see Ellen is an actual demon.

For those who stopped listening 3 years ago but have an opinion about current shows, I'm wondering what you are basing this on.
Most of you don't like him because he is liberal. It has nothing to do with what he does/does not mention on the show. I have listened every day since the beginning and while he makes political comments, he is not breaking down political topics on the show.
For those of you who want X's and O's and depth chart analysis ... you should have probably have figured out by now that is not what KSR is.
KSR is a light-hearted show where facts are optional and topics can be anything. As mentioned previously in this thread, the best shows are when something totally off-topic comes up and it becomes the main theme of the show this day. You sandwich that around a pep rally for big UK games and you have entertainment.
Nobody is forcing you to listen. Maybe a pro-Trump personality who loves depth charts can start a UK show so some of you will be happy.

you mean he has ppl executed? yea I would be saying nice things about him too then.
He may have been talking about the other Clinton. The pedophile/rapist.
He dangled his possible "running for senate" as a big part of the show, and he's continually forced politics into his format, all the while knowing that his audience didn't want it, so if that's not an agenda, I don't know what is.
“I haven’t listened in years but I know exactly what topics are on his current shows!”
Granted I haven't listened in over a year but at the end of when I did he only cut off people who didn't agree with him and continued to give his views. As many have said it's his show he can do what he wants but it has caused a lot of fans to quit listening not because they don't agree with his political stance just that they listened for other stuff besides politics. I think his ego is such that he would go down with the ship before giving in to pressure from fans turning the dial because they like the show for the sports and craziness not politics.
He had an incident where he shared his account for his buddies to share content. All a misunderstanding according to Matt though.
I think he said it was a misunderstanding because he didn't read or care to read the terms of service and sharing accounts but he still has an active account over here thats @MattJonesKSR
I still love KSR from time to time, but it has gotten worse since Trump got into office. The show never spoke about politics(rarely if so) until Matt got TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome). Then he (matt) decided to run against Mitch McConnell and Wrote a book about mitch. Oh, yea this is KYSportsradio... You'd think it was a political show from what little I've discussed here.
Matt does tweet out some great stuff about Kentucky but now since everyone stopped following his Political Twitter he has been forced to tweet non-stop about Politics now on his kysportsradio tag.
It's not the end of the world by any means, and I realize I'm wasting time even writing this post. But, KSR did inspire me alot to start making my own blogs and podcasts for that I respect Matt for that.
I'll tell you one thing though, I didn't tune into the show 6 years ago to listen about Mitch McConnell or follow him on twitter to get updates on politics. I tuned in for the friendly banter and UK Sports that we all love. I really do think the show has lost its way a bit.

I wouldn't even know he was still on the air if it weren't for these posts.
Iiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaahhhh! The white privilege is blinding ^.
From the sports side of things, it is quite amazing that someone who is completely clueless about sports other than what is spoon fed to him from his "sources" and so forth, is as successful as he is.
His liberal politics are well known and quite often he can't get out of his own way in an effort to keep his show from crossing that line....unless it is intentional, which is likely. His senate aspirations were always amusing, given he wasn't qualified to be on an HOA board, much less represent our state in DC.

His hatred of Trump made him into a raving lunatic. When you think of TDS you think, Matt Jones the King of Kentucky in his mamas' mind. (sorry Rex)
I've never liked Ellen Degeneres and I don't know why anyone finds her entertaining at all.
Her sitcom and talk show are both objectively terrible.

I honestly don't know any UK fans that still listen to him. I live in the Louisville area and the whole family and most of my friends listened at least a few times a week 5ish years ago. It was common to pull up to a job site and it be playing on the radio with 10ish guys working too... Haven't seen that in years either. I walked into a business with it on the radio more than once but haven't seen that in a while either.
But I listen to almost exclusively podcast anymore so I guess if someone is forced to listen to just radio....
Leftist politics is about tearing down institutions and not bringing things together. It's why black people felt race relations were better before obama was elected. The whole point of socialism is to build division. If people are happy and trading labor and goods freely there are no reasons for socialism.
I don’t live in KY anymore but I used to listen everyday during working hours. I was waning prior to covid with the election nonsense....once covid hit, I had to turn him off. I can imagine how unhinged he’ll become if Trump wins in November...he may finally move to NYC with his female friend. Seems like his progressivism drove off the cliff right around her and the buy off book deal.
I haven't listened to KSR in a few days...did he really have Ellen D on? Why? Is she a CAT fan? Seriously. If I understand it correctly...it's called Kentucky Sports Radio...Hmm...I mean, football season is about to kick off. Again, I haven't listened in a few days.
