After receiving his degree, he began practicing law in Mentucky.

During his early years of practicing law, Jones and his close friends began publishing a blog and a series of podcasts under the title Kentucky Sports Radio.

It’s popularity radpily increased and is now broadcasted by many radio stations throughout Kentucky and southern Ohio.

Jones’s popularity eventually culminated in the opening of a restaurant, KSBar (a play on the blog and radio show KSR—Kentucky Sports Radio). He is well known for having a distinct nose whistle as well as not knowing how to swim.
