Humorist Bob Farmer is out with the 2026 Farmers Almanac. Let's dive into the oddities of the New Year.

The Beasman is severely depressed after Mark Pope's Kentucky Wildcats lost another game, this time to hapless Missouri. He fears the S.E.C. will drop UK and replace them with the stinky Cardinal birds of Loserville.

Slick Rick Buteeno is the real snake behind UK's precipitous fall. Beasman explains it all.

NOPE TO POPE! NOPE TO POPE! Call him Kinny Pope cuz he sucks like Kinny Payne done to them neck tattoo, saggy pants, meth for breakfast sniffin U of Smell Cardinal fans!

The 20th head football coach at Saint Xavier High School was announced earlier today. Brian Landis will lead the Tigers after coaching stints in Georgia and Kentucky.

Coach Brian and Terry Meiners discussed rivalries, Vince Marrow, Kirby Smart, offensive looks, money in the game, and how a Cincinnati boy wound up with a Georgia accent. 

We're all looking forward to seeing what the Landis coaching team will bring to Saint X.

GO TIGERS!

The Beasman couldn't wait to hammer down on Larry Minner after his precious Cardinal birds thought they had Duke on the ropes...but them DOOKIES came back big to beat Little Brother!!!

On a concerning note, the new UK football coach is a fishbreath Catholic and he just signed a Catholic Notre Dame quarterback to lead the Wildcats. This won't sit well with the Protestant fan base of the Kentucky Wildcats! Ain't nobody asking for no Cath-lick statue-worshippin' sorcery to in-fill-trate the Godly Christian Kentucky Wildcats!

Didn't we learn nothin' from havin' that I-talian snake in the grass Slick Rick bringin Cath-lick voodoo to Lexinun?

The Beasman is losing his mind over media attention paid to that no count U of Smell suckup Larry Minner, who is celebrating 50 years on Kentucky radio stations!

That aside...it's time to FIRE MARK POPE! The University of Kentucky basketball team was manhandled by Alabama - a record fourth consecutive loss to the Tide - so Big Blue Nation is losing faith in Coach Pope.

Beasman wants him gone right away and replaced immediately with Alabama's coach Nate Oats.

Always love speaking with Jim Graven, the hardest working man in Louisville. When he's not helping first responders or snowplowing most of St. Matthews, he's working with his son Gunnar and daughter Allison at the family business Steepleton.

The company was founded in 1910 and is the second oldest retailer of billiard tables in the United States. Through the years, Steepleton has added sales of high quality hot tubs, saunas, basketball goals, grills, swing sets, trampolines, patio furniture, and lots more outdoor entertainment goods.

Jim is announcing his retirement and his son and daughter will carry on the Steepleton legacy, a great win for the Louisville business and retail community.

Successful businessman Tim Malone found himself spiraling into the depths of an opioid addiction that lasted seven years. Entwined in a failing marriage and burdened by the pressure of maintaining his $400 million business, Tim turned to opioids to numb his pain. His descent into addiction led to an unexpected romance with Denise, a relationship that ultimately provided him with a second chance at love and happiness. The arrival of Boo Boo, a dog Tim never knew he wanted, catalyzed his journey to redemption. Boo Boo's unconditional love helped Tim confront his demons and rebuild his life.

Following Boo Boo's death, plunging Tim into profound grief, opened doors to a new spiritual dimension. Through his experiences with orbs, spirit guides, angels, and so many other mystical entities, Tim found a renewed sense of purpose and a deeper connection to the universe, and to Boo Boo.

It offers both hope and encouragement to those struggling with addiction, and Tim's story is a beacon of light for anyone who has faced rock bottom. This book also provides an inspirational and sweeping foundation of knowledge for those seeking a deeper understanding of the spiritual realm.
