Now is a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began.
In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila.
Cuervo.
What are you doing here?
Cuervo.
Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.
Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like Cuervo, I think you could lay out, especially for one of our great partners.
Sweet, delicious Cuervo.
Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.
The same family, the same land, the same passion.
Cuervo.
So, enjoy the tequila that started it all.

Welcome to the Big Sue,
presented by DraftKings.
Why are you listening to this show?
It's a podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Lebetard podcast.
I'm sorry, I'm not going to apologize for that.
In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging.
I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's prize that if they're just there.
That hasn't happened to you guys.
I've done it.
And now, here's the marching man to nowhere, fat face, and the habitual liar.
This episode is presented by DraftKings.
DraftKings, the crown is yours.
Why do people think that when you sneeze, it means you're cold?
I've never heard that.
It happens all the time.
I was in, I was in.
Pepper in your nose.
Maybe you have a cold.
No, no, no, no.
I was in the Uber last night or yesterday on my way to the airport and I sneezed.
And by the way, it was like a zillion degrees and the guy's AC was not working that great.
Do you use the function when you order the Uber where you could set the preference?
I want it cold, I want it medium.
Yeah.
Do you use that?
Yeah, like
also how quiet you want it if you want to get talked to.
I actually do it.
Usually the temperature is fine.
Most people...
Like, very rarely do I have to let the person know, yo, turn it up or turn it down.
Do you ever have to let the person know, yo, my preference was quiet.
You're talking to me.
Quiet.
That's the one.
But I have great passive-aggressive ways of letting people know I don't want to talk.
Like, what?
Well, it's like I've got my headphones on and on my phone and sometimes i'm not even listening to anything it's just i have headphones you do the thing like you are like wait what's that what yeah exactly you're gonna have to repeat every question so where are you flying what was that yeah while the headphone like creeps back up to your ear to signify you're done talking once the headphone goes over the early i answered the question exactly i think people's nose run sometimes when they're cold i just which can lead to sneezing i sneezed and the guy was like is it too cold i'm like i'm sweating what are you talking about is it too cold what does that have to do with anything
he's alert to to the situation.
He's like, I want to, oh, you okay?
That's just him, like, oh, you sneeze?
Can I do anything to help?
It happens a lot.
You need a tissue?
Sneeze.
No, what?
That's fine.
Bless you.
It's fine.
Is it too cold?
As I'm sweating bullets,
it just was such a weird thing, but then it made me realize it happens a lot.
I sneeze and someone says, Oh, is it cold?
Like, what does cold have to do with sneezing?
And I think, Mike, you had the answer.
It's Looney Tunes.
It's Looney Tunes.
It's everything.
Everything we learned was from Bugs Bunny.
Yeah.
And that's it, right?
They set up tropes.
They established tropes that stayed with a generation for the remainder of its lives.
Mike, what happens if I shoot you in the face?
Well, sometimes.
Yeah, if I shoot you in the face, what happens?
Well, sometimes the bullet doesn't come out.
There's a flag that says bang.
Bang.
I wouldn't go with the Looney Tunes defense on things like that.
Like, oh, you know, I just crashed into someone with a car, but Wiley Coyote got right back up, so it's okay.
Like, I don't, I wouldn't live my life by Looney Tunes rules.
Bill went backwards.
Yeah, the bill goes backwards.
Or if I crash the guy out of the car,
his mouth becomes an accordion.
Yeah.
That's one.
I think
they didn't.
Well, in the Looney Tunes, they did overtly say people were drunk, but people would have the hiccups in cartoons.
Oh, yeah.
The old school X bottle.
And it became a trope.
Yep.
I think we can thank Dumbo for that one.
If I run off a cliff.
Like I'll fall immediately.
No, no, no, you don't fall immediately.
You say you stay in the air suspended for a little bit.
And in the whistle.
What if I never notice that I've run off the cliff?
You can't, if you never notice, then you're fine.
You're fine.
You can't give it the power of noticing because once you do notice, you're going to just keep on running.
And, Roy, you pointed out the other part, which is, I have to pull out a sign first to let everyone know.
Yup.
Oh, man.
We've been Looney Tunes back, man.
We can't.
It's all canceled, right?
All that stuff is canceled.
No, they have new shows.
They have a new show.
No, but it's not like we used to be, man.
Yeah.
Not like it used to be.
Oh, those are the days.
This is the days of casual racism.
Hack me versus Coyote.
It wasn't casual at all.
It was pretty active.
You ever see, like, who Thomas the Cat and Tom and Jerry?
You know whose owner is?
Mammy Two Shoes.
No, that was the maid.
But, I mean, yes, she's the maid, but she's in essence, the person in charge, right?
Thomas!
Thomas!
Trivia Night Roy, man.
Oh, man.
I don't know what the hell you guys are talking about.
Do you know about Tom and Jerry?
No, no, I do, but I don't know their...
That's where it ends for me, though, in terms of all these these references.
Yeah, Mammy Two Shoes.
He's just young.
Oh, yeah.
Mammy Two Shoes.
Oh, you're like two years older than me.
I'm not two years older than you.
You're 39 years old.
I want to talk about something that happened on the weekend because we have our network out there watching all the content that we have.
And over the weekend, there was a big UFC fight
that we were excited about.
That's right.
And Tony and Lewis and the team they brought you.
Oh, MMA MMA Hangout.
How'd it go?
I checked in on that stream at one point.
I don't know if you saw me.
How'd the stream go?
I mean, I was just checking people commenting.
They were having a good time.
I saw one of them mention my son.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was checking you guys out.
Thank you.
Awesome.
Well, Tony, you had a good weekend?
We had a great weekend until the main event, which then things got a little out of hand because there was the most thorough domination I've ever seen in any fight ever, possibly.
With the ground time being 22 minutes to 30 seconds.
It was insane.
Cut word.
Cut word that
it was worth revisiting the latter portion of this weekend's MMA hangout because Tony had very curious reactions to the main event that made someone believe that something more than just a simple prediction was at play.
So we've established a super cut, if you will, of the main event
at the UFC over the weekend.
And
this was accurately described as Tony crashing out.
And I've deduced what was going on here, but I'm curious your takeaway.
Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Family, this is not good.
This fight, I cannot believe.
I'm the idiot.
It's me.
I'm the idiot.
Yeah.
I'm the idiot.
This is insane, dude.
This is insane.
This is insane.
I don't think I've ever seen a champion fight this bad.
Hey, just no answer.
You know what I want to do?
Stuff his takedown attempt.
You know what I want to do?
He's going to get knee up.
He has to get knees up.
exactly right.
He shoots for a takedown, you meet his head to Michigan.
How do I know that?
Sitting on a desk in a bar in Little Havana.
He's gonna try and climb and put you in a crucifix and waste three and a half minutes of you trying to get out of it, and you can't.
Hey,
here, here you go.
He's gonna shoot, set up, he's gonna, he's gonna shoot.
Are you ready?
Because he's gonna shoot
right to his back again.
There we go.
All right.
Hey, I've seen this.
I've seen this position
for 17 minutes.
There's no way that people are happy.
Damn, dude.
Gets up, gets back down.
Oh, guess what?
He's going to go for the crucifix again.
Oh, guess what?
He's got it again.
Guess what?
He's going to get the knee in and get the crucifix again.
Guess what, DDP?
You crossing your legs like Lewis doesn't do anything.
It doesn't do anything.
That's what I was doing.
That's not offensive.
Christ Almighty.
And I love this song.
I've actually never seen Tony crash out.
This is crazy, dude.
This is insane.
Is this a nightmare?
Finally, they stop it.
Finally, get him up.
Guess what?
He's going to shoot again.
Oh my God.
Back to the back.
I can't.
I can't.
It's officially cooked, dude.
It's officially cooked.
I don't ever want to see DDP fight Hamzad again.
I never want to see it.
I'm done.
I'm done.
I'm done.
Have you eaten your food already?
Yes, I already ate my food.
All right, five, four, three, two, one.
Hurry up.
Let's go.
Just get the fifth round number one, dude.
He's got zero shot.
It's over.
He should throw in the towel.
Yeah, this is probably the worst championship fight I've ever seen.
Throw in the towel.
It's over.
You cannot fight this guy.
You cannot beat him.
You cannot get off the ground.
And I'm going to throw my headphones through the camera.
This is insane, dude.
Don't hype up the crowd, don't hype up the crowd, DBP.
It's over.
No, high head kick, too.
Just get knocked out.
You better start throwing hard.
And guess what?
Here, if he gets that leg over, here's the crucifix, and there goes four minutes and 21 seconds.
If you don't got it now, buddy, there's and he's in a Kimura, too.
He's gonna submit you.
A worst night of my life.
Thanks, Mark.
He's got no juice left, dude.
He's exhausted.
He's fought
25 minutes of nothing.
It doesn't matter.
Nobody get excited.
Nobody get excited.
Can you submit his ass?
That's all he has.
Oh, son of a bitch.
Turn off the stream.
Thumbs up.
Turn off the stream.
The last, the last hope.
It's the hope that kills you.
It's the hope that killed me is that DDP starts working to maybe try and get a submission.
And I'm like, oh my God, could he get a buzzer beater submission here on Amzad?
I'm waiting.
I'm waiting.
No, he slipped out of it.
Okay.
There we go.
So, Tony, how much yeah
oh you bet on that enough oh i hadn't gathered our our friends at draft kings sportsbook we we
we were looking at the champion with plus juice okay i'm like man we're looking good here and then hamzat's like you know what i'm just gonna wrestle him for 25 minutes and not let him breathe and it said it was three 10-8 rounds right yeah
it was it was five 10-8 rounds as what it was it was 11 10 8 rounds it was the rest of his life ddp cannot fight hamzat jimaev it's over so i
So I heard.
I heard that this was the main event.
I mean, this is the way the main event went.
So I asked my son the next morning because he went out with a bunch of friends and they ordered the fight and they watched because my son is way, my son loves the Iron Fighters.
And so I asked him one son, he's like, hey, did you enjoy the main event?
He goes, yeah.
I said, oh, because I thought a lot of people didn't like it because there was a lot of wrestling going.
I goes, those are casuals.
They don't know what they're talking about.
I enjoyed that very much.
Correct.
The issue is when you've got a lot of money on the line.
Oh, that kind of of skews the way that you want things to happen.
Like, yeah, if I didn't really have any action on anything, I've been like, yeah, okay, that go, you, you go with your game plan, right?
It's just like in football.
Hey, they've got a really bad run defense.
You know what we're going to do?
We're going to run the ball 67 times and you're going to have to stop us and you can't.
But when you're, when you got, you know, a good amount of money on the line and you think that something's going to happen and then the complete opposite happens for 25 minutes, it's very difficult to try and keep your blood pressure down.
Yes, I already ate my food.
What?
Why were you so confident that DDP would win?
Because I don't think he was confident.
It's just he was getting plus money with the champion.
Plus money with the champion.
And DDP has fought a bunch of killers and has made everybody look stupid.
So it's like, all right, we've got Hamzad, who's coming off of a really good win against Robert Whitaker, who DDP also ran through.
So you've got those two equals.
And you're like, all right, they kind of both took care of business against Whitaker.
And then Hamzad has had some trouble.
He had some trouble against Kamaru Usman, who came off the couch, fought at 185.
Like, there was a couple of things I was like, you know what?
Maybe he's not ready to fight a five-round fight championship deep waters with a proven killer.
And then he does that and absolutely demolishes him for five rounds.
In a bar in Little Havana.
Got to stuff the takedown.
I mean, you know, he's going to take you down.
It's really simple.
That was my favorite part.
Tony just be like, oh, you got to do this.
Just do this.
What are you doing?
Stuff the takedown.
He wants to take you down.
You stuff it.
You know how you stuff it like this.
Do you think someone said to do police after the fight is like, why don't you stuff the takedown?
I'm sure the corner was yelling, stuff the takedown.
Christ Almighty.
They do post-game presses, right?
Post-fight presses.
Yeah, of course.
You got to ask that question.
Did you see one of the fighting nerds, Carlos Prates, after a spinning back elbow?
And the thing is, we had such a good night, right?
We had two spinning back elbow finishes, one after another.
One, a buzzer beater.
Carlos Pratez knocks out Jeff Neal, hands a steel, knocks him out with a spinning elbow, and then Aaron Pico's debut off of Bellator comes in.
Lerone Murphy from Manchester hits him with a vicious spinning elbow again, right after.
So we're those two on the co-main event and the fight before, and then we we get that.
Just an absolute turd for me personally.
But you gave us a lifetime of entertainment.
It's just that's that's that's the best part about this shit, man.
Why is it so why is it so entertaining?
Don't suck up.
Why is it so fun?
Yes, I already ate my food.
Why is it
like filling me with joy?
Thanks, Mark.
To see Tony crying.
I just realized who the mark was.
It's the referee.
Because at a certain point, he had to get Hamza and DDP up because Hamza was just laying on him, not doing anything.
Thanks, Mark.
And DDP was so exhausted, he couldn't fight back.
He was just there like, thanks, Mark.
Mark got him up and stood him up.
Guess what?
He didn't shoot the, he didn't, he didn't stop the takedown.
Another shot.
Another takedown.
Nobody gets excited.
When somebody goes
for a takedown, if you hit him with one of these, right?
You step back,
flying knee, he's done.
You think maybe it's some fights?
It's not that easy.
Of course it's not that easy.
Okay, I don't know.
Tony,
when you're talking about the guess what?
Don't hype up the crowd.
Because he was hyping up the crowd at the end of the round.
I was like, dude, you're down 98 to zero.
Like, was he trying to make it seem like he won?
He was just trying to be like, come on, like, let's go.
And it's like, no, it's over.
Like, it was over the moment it was.
Was the crowd booing?
Were they not happy with it?
The thing is, we obviously were playing Baboni and we're playing Reggae Dong at the bar.
I love this song.
I also can't hear what's going on in the commentary because obviously there's people dancing and people having fun and Regga Dong's playing and it's like, oh, that's why i said i love this song
the worst night of my life
this is why i i can't
hold on cancer survivor tony
worst night of my life
two times twice worst night of my life
defending the belt defending the belt twice two time cancer champion tony and ddp can't stuff a takedown
come on raining and defending worst night of my life and still in a bar in little havana two times in tony's life he has been told he has cancer, but that was the worst sight of his life.
Drove home and I was just in silence.
I didn't even play music.
I didn't play any recaps.
Usually I'll watch the press conference on the way home on my phone.
Nothing.
Just nothing.
Just I don't want to talk.
I don't want to look at anything.
So a lot.
Yeah.
Enough.
It was enough.
I had to tell Jenny, and she was like...
So you felt that good about him, right?
I was like, it's over.
When do you get this price?
It's like plus juice with a champ, babe.
I mean, come on, it makes sense.
Transitive property with Whitaker.
She's She's like, Hamzat is like a killer, though.
And I was like, yeah, well, you know, he was minus 240 on DraftKings.
Thanks, Mark.

Hey, it's Mike Ryan.
Those sprinklers are starting to slowly come up on the football field.
Time that we have with summer is dwindling.
I'm sure you're already doing that thing where you're going through your photo album, flipping through the photos that you've taken this summer, already reminiscing about the good times that you have.
I know I did.
And in many of the pictures that I went back to reminisce over, I had a beautiful white can of Miller light in my hand because I love making good times during the summer a Miller time.
And it's a good reminder, we're losing time on this summer, so why don't you share the moments that you have with a white can of Miller Light like I have, whether it's a long weekend or a full-on vacation.
It is the perfect time to get the crew back together and since 1975, Miller Light has been the go-to way to stock the cooler and celebrate those moments.
This year marks 50 years of Miller time.
50 years of great taste, great friends, and unforgettable memories.

Hey, it's Jeremy here.
I don't know if you've noticed this about me, but I'm not quite someone who loves confrontation or fighting.
I don't really want to end up in a situation where I need to do so.
For me, Simply Safe becomes the way I want to protect my home.
Because not only is there like the personal peace of mind of knowing that my security is preventative, it's not just an alarm after an event.
I want to make sure that my wife is okay, that my cats are okay, that everything I have in my home is okay.
And knowing that I have to deal with like the stress or the violation of someone potentially breaking into my home and reacting to it versus having the control and safety of proactive prevention is huge for me.
Most security systems only react after a break-in.
SimplySafe helps stop it before that happens.
Their new active guard outdoor protection uses AI cameras and live agents to spot suspicious activity, speak to intruders, turn on lights, and call the cops before anything goes down.

is anybody watching the new alien show on hulu oh i i keep i i've been trying to get to it i i'm i'm going
but i i have not started it yet
I uh I tried starting, I fell asleep.
I fell asleep like five minutes of them arguing on the ship.
A little boring.
My experience with it was I was just answering questions the entire time because they were trying to really lean into the lore.
I haven't seen episode two.
I think the problem is I haven't been motivated enough to see episode two.
I heard two is way better than one.
Alien!
But I'm telling you, when I saw, when one started with, all right, so there's three types of people.
There's the cyber, I'm like, what the hell are you talking about?
Like, set a scene.
We have a synthetic now.
I'm like, I just, I don't get it.
Do I have to go back and watch Alien and Aliens all over again?
He has questions too.
Maybe your wife was not that off much.
No, I think that
you don't have to because this takes place two years before they send Ripley.
You shouldn't have to.
So this is a prequel.
Yes.
This is.
Alien Dets!
But it's after Prometheus and Alien Covenant.
So should I have to watch Prometheus then?
I think you have to watch Ice Age because that's canon, apparently, too.
Is it?
Yeah.
With the squirrel and the...
Ice Age is canon.
Uncle Ray.
Uncle Ray.
Oh, that's right.
It's your boy.
I want to reward the ambition.
I want to see more alien content.
Alien dance.
I'm going to
really try to hunker down here and watch episode two.
I'm going to, like, last night, I had the decision.
Do I sit down and, all right, I'm awake.
I'm, I'm feeling energetic.
I'm not sleepy like I was last week or whatever.
Do I watch this or do I go to Las Rosas?
And, you know, you know who won.
This is Amin Alhassen, an expert.
when it comes to bars.
He's been to every bar.
He's on one of the biggest shows in Miami.
One click of a button and it goes out to millions of followers on social media.
That is verbatim for when Big Cat was on our rescue.
That is exactly how it went.
These guys know.
He's a tastemaker.
Yeah, he's a tastemaker.
He's a tastemaker with influence.
How long was he sitting waiting for a drink?
And you didn't even acknowledge him.
You're losing $6,000 a week.
Oh, my God.
Plastic classic cups.
All right, that's it.
I'm going you know what?
I'm gonna I shouldn't even say this.
This has been a secret.
I've been sitting on this for a while.
Counted things is launching a bar rescue podcast.
What?
Yeah, man.
Classic rewatches.
We are doing, we're heavy in the RD stage right now.
Like, we've been doing dry runs, and it'll be launching in a matter of weeks, folks.
You and Maze?
No,
Mays doesn't want anything to do with it.
Phil has never seen an episode of Bar Rescue.
He's in a bar rescue chat and has never seen a single episode.
He hasn't had the privilege and the thrill of busting open the books.
Oh my God, and making the call for help to bar rescue.
Hey.
We got you a brand new POS system.
$40,000.
Two tons.
We got one here, one here, and one for the servers over here.
We got you three speed wells.
How about an Orange Door music entertainment system?
Over 40,000 songs loaded.
Like that?
Remember the bartender numbers from the other day?
We got you a subscription to Bartender.
Now you'll always know how much money you're spending and wasting on drinks.
Not to stop there, your training doesn't end.
I got you a lifetime subscription to Taffer Virtual Training, TVT.
Oh my God, I can't wait to do all this jargon for rescue.
You know what the goal is.
The whole goal for our podcast.
I've already told it to my co-hosts, which we'll be revealing soon.
The goal is that one day we are the recon team on bar rescue.
Wow.
These guys have the number one bar rescue podcast.
They look like normal guys, but when they walk in, they know exactly what they're looking for.
And you know what I got to order when I get to the bar?
An old-fashioned.
Because it's always, you can't just get a cauldron.
No, it's got to be,
let me know.
Man, I watched the episode the other day, dude, ordered a white Russian.
I'm like,
son of a.
You know, this bar is failing.
Why would you order a white Russian from these people, man?
This lady poured like a gallon of heavy cream into this drink.
A little bit of Kahlua, a little bit of vodka.
Oh.
So it was all milk.
It was, yeah.
It was a lactose intolerance nightmare.
I hope you didn't ask for a menu at Las Rosas.
I thought about it, man.
I said, do you guys have a cocktail menu?
The milk is on display.
They just point up.
This is what we have.
But if Taffer, if a secret agent on behalf of John Taffer was there, he'd be like, well, no, yeah.
Dismiss me and just point it up.
That's the menu.
Come on.
Yeah.
Ended up
living the high life.
Should have gotten Miller Light, but I like high life.
Yeah.
There you go.
Out of boy.
It's always Miller.
Has you ever seen Bar Rescue?
I love Bar Rescue.
Okay.
He's being very quiet.
I'm just, I'm learning here.
Are you interested in co-hosting a podcast?
Are you the co-host?
I mean,
I don't want to give anything away, but I will tell you, I love bar rescue.
Well, you know, Taffer invented NFL Red Zone.
I know the NFL Sunday Ticket.
Yeah, Sunday Ticket.
It was him.
He invented it.
Invented it.
And the butt funnel.
Put them all together and then sell it.
I like, you know, the term invented has a lot of leeway, doesn't it?
A lot of latitude.
He invented people wanting to watch every NFL game.
I just like the idea of
him sitting back in the bathroom.
You know what would be great?
You know what you guys should do?
You should sell a subscription so that everybody can watch every game all the time.
And he's making paper airplanes and just throwing them.
Oftentimes people conceptualize.
It's the inventing that can always push back on.
It's not your invention.
Copyright.
Whoa.
That's a move.

That little trick he does with the beer where he spins a thing around.
He's like, this is what it's doing inside your stomach.
I still don't understand that.
Me neither.
I can't explain it to you.
Can you?
That when you pour a beer poorly, like with a big head, when you're pouring it in, that the gases in there are exploding.
And that's why what fills you up in your stomach is being released in the cup.
So you get a big head, but it actually ends up being a better experience for your stomach.
Whereas if you pour it properly where no head ever, and there's just zero head on the beer, then you drink that.
That
explosion happens in your stomach and it fills you up more.
So you can drink more beers without feeling full if you pour it terribly and get a big head.
He says that, but I don't know that I believe that.
No, I'm not saying that is how it's.
Not you.
I'm saying Taffer.
Cause like Taffer does that.
But like, okay, let's say I have a Coca-Cola, right?
And I shake it, and you get all that, that foam or whatever, right?
And then like it explodes.
If I close it and I shake it again, you get just as much the next time, except for the one that came out.
So like if it has all that foam inside my glass and then I pour it into my mouth, what's to say it's not doing that inside of my stomach again?
Because you release the gases.
I don't know how this works for soda, but I do know how it works for you.
Two different
double gases.
Which is why you got to push people to the draft beer because you could sell more.
Juju put it on the pole.
Can you have double gas?
Can you have double gas?
You shake it once.
Is there more left in the tank?
The gas is out, right?
Doesn't that mean the gas is out?
No?
It's also less carbonated?
I think soda is different.
It has to be.
Why is it different?
It's bubbles.
Nah, it has to be.
Bubbles or bubbles?
Bubbles are bubbles.
No, bubbles are bubbles.
Duju, put on the pole, are bubbles bubbles?
Right?
If you try to take the initial beer and from one pint glass to another after you already poured it poorly, Triviaroi's got something on there.
It's not going to be the same amount of bubbles.
It just can't be.
But soda's carbonated water as opposed to beer which is fermented.
Wow.
Oh, there's that sounds right to me.
That's not carbonated.
He said it I'm like that sounds right.
Say that on air.
That sounds right.
So there's double bubble there?
Love a good fermenting.
So
you want a big head.
Did you put it on the pole?
Big head or no head?
I love big head.
I mean, it's why you don't drink out of can own a bottle.
What?
That's going in the club.
I always stop the bartender.
If I shake a beer, I don't know if we have Miller Lights here.
If I pour it in a glass, I make sure.
And I shake it,
you're going to get the foam, right?
You don't need to shake it.
And then if I let it settle and I do it again, I'm going to get foam again.
Not the same amount of foam.
Let's try this.
I think this is a great experiment.
I think we should get a can of Miller light, go get like a nice pint glass, Mike.
And then Tavert does it with like a paper towel, right?
Like he stirs it up.
I want to see this happen.
I don't like I
first of all, I swear to God, I'm going to sound like an idiot.
I'm today years old learning that beer is not carbonated by carbonation.
It's carbonated by the fermentation process.
I didn't know that.
I don't know.
I don't think that's stupid enough.
We're all just like believing Roy, too.
I mean, I don't know.
Now the look on Roy's face does not give me confidence.
Like,
when you said it, you seemed real confident.
And right now, you just had this look like, oh, man.
Zach Wilson at the draft.
Yeah.
Where are we at, Mike?
You got some props for us here?
We don't have Miller Light here, but I was told that on God Bless Football, John Taffer did this on set.
He did.
So we're going to try to track down that archive.
Oh, okay, all right.
This is when you guys were at the Super Bowl, right?
Yeah, this was
Vegas.
Vegas Super Bowl.
I remember being incredibly jealous.
That was the...
Man, I was so...
That they had Taffer?
That they had Taffer.
Really?
Yeah.
He was just wandering about anyone could have gotten him that day.
Yeah.
He was just there.
That was one of the ones I wanted to be there.
Anybody could have gotten him.
Wouldn't everybody want him?
Apparently not.
It's one of those Tuesdays, like, you know, early in the week where they have a table.
It's like the welcome committee's like, oh, we have John Taffer on behalf of the city of Las Vegas.
Like, hell yeah.
You're like, okay.
Like, we'll take him.
The year before,
we had Carrot Top when we were in Arizona.
They flew Carrot Top in because he was going to promote the Super Bowl the following year in Las Vegas.
Because I don't know if you know this.
Apparently, there's a Super Bowl every year.
Most people don't know it.
You need Carrot Caratop to come and tell you next year there's going to be another Super Bowl and it's going to be in Las Vegas.
So we said, yeah,
we'll take Caratop.
But every city has like a little table and they're like, we're going to have these people talk about either this year's city or next year's city on behalf.
It's usually like a Monday or Tuesday when it's slow.
They're paid to do this?
They flew Caratop.
So we were talking to Caratop, not to put his business out there.
We were talking to Caratop.
They flew him in on a PJ that morning.
He did like interviews for like an hour and then he had a show at night and they flew him right back.
But he needed to be there for that hour to tell people the Super Bowl was going to Las Vegas the following year.
I went to a Stanley Cup final between Vegas and Florida.
God, I missed the Panthers.
And you know how they do in-arena entertainment?
They have trivia questions or whatever, shell game.
The in-arena host in Vegas asked the gentleman to participate in one of the games and just casually interviewed him.
The gentleman was John Taffer.
Really?
Yeah, and she didn't know
at all.
Okay, now I'm Googling.
Everybody in the arena was pointing.
So it was
so bad that.
Like, does she say, what's your name?
I'm John.
He just casually answered and the camera moved away.
And he was like,
that was weird.
And then it was so obvious that a mistake was made that 10 minutes later, they came back with John, I just noticed who you were.
Like, that was a tough look.
Wow, I'm looking at...
Oh, there's a lot of, there's a lot of Taffra Golden Knights content.
It's him with a very large Golden Knights jersey jersey on,
which is funny because he has short arms.
He's got short arms.
I'm sure he's done like pregame entertainment before.
He was just casually asked a trivia question at the Stanley Cup final.
He's often at the Knights games.
Everyone's there, huh?
They said Lil John is there.
All the residencies, all the resident DJs
in all the casinos, they often do that.
They have a fun in-game experience.
Yeah, it is really fun.
Yeah.
They got us at one time.
Oh, well, yeah, two years ago?
Well, they got us four times.
We only got them one time.
I was there when they clinched.
It was brutal.
It was tough.
Were you as a show employee or as a fan?
No, I just went.
You just went and that's hard time.
You just got it like that, huh?
That one I may have actually, because remember the next morning I was on the show.
That one they may have paid for my flight.
I've gone to like, like, I went to the Bills game a couple years ago.
It's not the flight that I'm curious about here, Chris.
Anyone could fly to Vegas.
It's not hard to fly to Vegas.
It's the Stanley Cup final.
Oh, like the entrance to the game?
Yeah, I believe I did do that because the Metal Arc always does credentials.
I want to go.
Oh, so you said no to the credential.
I'm going to go.
Like, they probably paid for my room and flight, and I was like, you know what?
I'm not taking credential.
I need to be, I'm going to, I'll buy myself a ticket because I want to.
I don't want to behave.
And then we lost.
You need to be around everyone losing 8-1.
Right.
He wants to drink beer.
Middle light.
The rivalries, the bands, the upsets.
College football is back.

Amino Hassan.
This is the Don Lebatar Show with the Stugats.
Speaking of drinking beer, we got the video tapper with Billy and Stugats at the Super Bowl.
Right.
Now, a lot of people that are rookie bartenders are so scared of too much head, they pour the beer like never, right?
Yep.
Really slow.
I gotta be honest, that's how I do it.
And your hair is getting gray,
right?
And I mean, this is the way they pour that beer.
Then the guy was a more experienced bartender.
You know, he'll fill the cup more like this, put the beer next to it, and give it to you that way.
Now, what happens?
If you drink that beer when you put it in your stomach, nothing happens.
Nothing happens.
But if you take this beer and put it in your stomach, look what happens.
Oh, wow.
I didn't know my stomach was made on a paper towel.
I'm showing you.
I'm simply showing you, if you pour it faster, you can drink more.
You see, when you pour it slow like this this and it bubbles like that in your gut, you're going to drink less beer, aren't you?
Yeah.
You're bloated.
Yeah, but you feel like you're drinking more beer at the time, you know?
But neither of those is exactly correct.
The middle is where you want to be, of course.
Billy, you disrespectful.
I still don't get it.
Looking at the two of them, they look identical to me.
Like the two cups.
Yeah, but can I be honest?
It was the reaction to the paper.
Like, if I'm being honest, I don't know what he's trying to tell me there.
You don't want the beer expanding in your stomach, guys.
This is science.
But there's less beer expanded in the one that was poured improperly.
I'm with Billy, though.
Like, it seems like a paper towel is what creates this explosion.
Like, what in my stomach is...
When it encounters the lining of your stomach, I'll start doing that.
Guys,
science.
You don't get it.
It's a big head, no-head situation.
Jesus, don't get it.
You guys are no-head guys.
You guys have bounty insight.
Why don't you get it?
Oh, no.
I
don't have more beers like this.
Like, when I'm out for a night, if I'm having a night, like, first beer is being poured terribly because I'm like, I got to create some.
I don't want to pick it up.
If you have a proof of concept, I used to do it the way just drinking it out of the can and I would get more bloaty than I do.
This is not my mind playing tricks on me, guys.
And that was a Miller Light, despite the beer being good.
I pour my canned and bottled beer in.
I asked for a glass so I can pour it in and release the bubble so it's not in my tummy.
So whenever you're out, so if you go to Las Rosas, you say, let me get a Miller Light.
You're going to ask them to pour it in a glass?
That's right.
Unless it's just like, I only want one beer.
No, why?
Because then getting bloaty, I'm not going to get bloaty off of one beer.
What happens if they pour it the incorrect way, according to Taffer?
Well, we have cans.
And there's also draft beer.
I don't think we have any bottles, but I would ask for a cup and pour it into the cup.
You do yourself.
Yeah.
You wouldn't tell them to do it.
I could tell them, and they would be helpful too.
Would they do it the right way?
Pour it like a savage is what I would tell them.
You can order a beer like a steak.
Like, I'll take my beer big head.
Really?
Yeah.
No, I'm kidding.
I don't have to be a good one.
I was about to go.
Can I get medium head, please?
I always say pour it like a savage and just leave me the the can.
Give me my beer with some head, please.
Give me a taffer.
Give me a lot of head.
Give me the taffer.
Get thrown out.
So more head, the better.
That's what we're saying?
Yeah, because you don't want that happening in how I live.
It's science.
More head state.
Paper towels, as you know.
Ken Farid, the manimo.
Play named Puerto Rico, by the way.
Yeah, he is.
Still playing.
Still out here.
Still doing his thing.
Still doing his thing.
That was a guy who I didn't think that was going to be that good.
Ended up being someone decent in that game we played a couple weeks ago.
Yeah, he's
hung around a lot longer than I thought.
Yeah, well, he's an effort guy.
Like, he was never going going to be more
than what he, but the high motor will get you places.
I mean, didn't his skill set appear at a time?
Like, that was like the only window of time that it could work for Kenneth Farid
in NBA history, maybe.
I think it could work now, but again, it's like.
He didn't know how to shoot, though.
No, yeah, but like,
he's not going to be a starter.
Everyone needs a...
There's only like guys like that are matchup dependent.
He's the guy that would be your one in, four out, one in, and then he's the guy to set the screen, and then you throw lobs because he's a great athlete.
He's going to finish above the rim.
But night in, night out, starting at the four in Space NBA, that doesn't happen.
He had a really nice career.
He couldn't start.
Yeah,
he hit the exact window of time where he could make money and play and have a residue.
Yeah, because there was that slight window like, oh, we don't need a cement block-footed
power forward.
Let's get an athletic guy, a nimble guy, to come out and guard some of these guys that can shoot.
But then the game evolved so quickly that that guy also needs to be able to shoot and handle.
He doesn't want to do that.
I don't think he needs to.
I think you can still be a big that is like active and dunks and rebounds and defense.
Problem is, he wasn't a good defensive player.
Like, he was a guy that got lost in schemes and stuff like that.
People think that because he was just a rebound guy.
It was just, look, I watched a lot of Kenneth Freed.
No, I know.
He was
the Atman.
The nickname, though.
The Atman McGreat nickname, the Manamo.
Again, I'm always a fan of when you have a good nickname, like a real nickname, not like a play on your name or something.
Joker, I don't like that nickname.
I get it.
I get why.
I don't think it's creative enough.
Right, like he's not a joker.
He doesn't have personality of a joker.
His style of play is not how Joker would play.
I think I'm with you there.
What's the best nickname in the NBA right now?
What's the big best nickname in team sports?
I know UFC has this thing on lock.
Everyone's got a nickname.
But like in team sports, in the NFL and baseball right now, the best active nickname.
I'm trying to,
if I hit you with,
well, I can't say Slim Reaper because
Durant does not, no one calls him.
Durantula?
No,
no, there's someone who's tried, a baseball player, right?
Try to steal the name Durantula.
We're like, no, no, you don't get to do that.
There's a whole sneaker named after that, right?
Aren't they active, though?
I'm telling you, they're not good.
Like Donovan Mitchell, Spider, Spider Mitchell's like, that's okay.
That's okay.
Right?
Does Bam count as a nickname?
Yeah, because he's a Dries now.
Yeah.
Is that it?
Bam?
Is Bam the best?
Greek freak?
Greek freak?
That freak's not bad.
That's a really good one.
It's not bad.
Honey Badger.
Honey Badger.
Do they still make posters?
No longer active.
Retired.
That's true.
Retired or not retired.
Retired.
Can you go to a department store and buy a poster to hang up on your wall, or do you have to go on
the internet to do that to do it?
Mike.
We talked about this on the Dracula 2000 episode of Cinephobe.
All you have to do is go go to the Virgin Megastore.
I love that.
I love perusing through
the entire archive of the catalog of poster options.
You want to
see that?
Now, this is the Eminem poster I need to have.
Jim Morrison, Eminem, and then Tupac.
All eyes on me.
Christina Aguilera.
There it is.
There's the game.
Oh, man.
Wow.
Wait.
Did you guys, were you guys all poster people?
Oh, yeah.
Let's put together our top five posters.
I have the feeling Zazzle had the one where the Patrick Ewing one where he's taking a jump shot.
It says Ewing.
No, no, I had.
How dare you?
No, when I was a kid, I had all wrestling posters.
And then when I was a teenager, I had all music posters.
I never had.
What were your music posters?
Led Zeppelin, of course, Pearl Jam, Rage Against the Machine.
Pink Floyd.
I've got just the Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon.
I had Pink Floyd.
I had the one with all the girls and the asses, you you know, the album covers.
Yeah.
Two-life crew?
No.
Oh,
that's the one I was thinking about.
I was thinking about, yeah.
What about Scarface?
I feel like in college.
I have one at my parents' house.
I have a Scarface poster of the movie podcast.
That tracks.
That tracks.
Not ghetto boys.
Framed.
The movie.
Is it framed?
Yeah.
I'm going to see if I can take a picture of it.
And I had the big banner of, you know, Jim Morrison's mugshot, Lud of Sivious Behavior.
Yeah.
Dukes of Hazard, Jessica Simpson.
In my college dorms.
Oh, very embarrassing.
No, it's not.
Cinepobe episode.
Also, tracks.
Yeah.
I do wonder how my mother fucked.
Because I was living with my mother at the time when I was in high school and I started putting up the Zeppelin and the Pink Floyd post.
It was like, she knew what I was up to, right?
You were smoking weeds?
Got to put the towel
underneath the door, put the towel.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know how to get caught.
It's been passed out from generation to generation.
Dorms?
Everyone in the dorms.
We tried it at hotel rooms.
Wet towel?
Not wet.
No, not wet.
Just the towel.
No, but wet, it gets in there better.
And then it stops the actual smell.
It feels.
Somebody told me, I don't know who, I don't remember who it was.
Somebody told me if you take a paper towel roll and then you put a Febreze on the other side of it,
that the smoke
done that too.
Wait, wet?
You blow out the smoke that you just inhaled into the little toilet paper roll with the Febreze so that the smoke
is smelling.
Yeah, so it comes out smelling like Febreze.
Oh, it just smells like Febreze
and stank then, right?
Yeah.
We're trying to mitigate here, not completely.
I'm trying not to get caught in me.
I'm only 16 years old, all right?
Oh, man.
The things that as a teenager, you thought that would fly.
Oh, the things that we used to do as a teenager when it came to stuff like that that I would never consider doing now because it's dangerous.
That's right.
Like the things I was doing back then.
Oh, like, how, what was I thinking, you know?
Yeah.
I remember one time, though.
You do you everything not to get caught, right?
You know, you're doing such a good job.
And you could even make up stories like, oh, what happened here, you know?
And then, and then, and then one night uh, I left something in my pants, you know, goes to the wash.
Laundry?
Oh.
Yeah, it goes to the wash.
And my mom comes out.
She goes, hey, I found this in the laundry.
I was like, what was the lie you came up with?
I got nothing.
You got nothing?
You always got to come up with something.
Hey, it's Mike Ryan.
Those sprinklers are starting to slowly come up on the football field.
Time that we have with summer is dwindling.
I'm sure you're already doing that thing where you're going through your photo album, flipping through the photos that you've taken this summer, already reminiscing about the good times that you have.
I I know I did.
And in many of the pictures that I went back to reminisce over, I had a beautiful white can of Miller Light in my hand because I love making good times during the summer a Miller time.
And it's a good reminder, we're losing time on this summer.
So why don't you share the moments that you have with a white can of Miller Light like I have?
Whether it's a long weekend or a full-on vacation.
It is the perfect time to get the crew back together.
And since 1975, Miller Light has been the go-to way to stock the cooler and celebrate those moments.
This year marks 50 years of Miller time.
50 years of great taste, great friends, and unforgettable memories.

Now's a good time to remember where Tequila's story truly began.
In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila.
Cuervo.
What are you doing here?
Cuervo.
Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.
Well, I do know that to be true, but even during an ad reads, like Cuervo, I think you could lay out, especially for one of our great partners.
Sweet, delicious Cuervo.
Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.
The same family, the same land, the same passion.
Cuervo.
So, enjoy the tequila that started it all.
