Speaker 10 This episode of the Dan Lebatt Show is presented by DraftKings.

Speaker 11 Traff Kings, the crown is yours.

Speaker 12 David Sampson, somehow, and I don't really understand how he's doing this, and I'm about to ask him why he's doing it, continues to trudge through and

Speaker 12 do nothing personal every day because he has a special relationship with his audience. He appreciates his audience.
I assume that's a big part of the answer.

Speaker 12 But what he's going through at home is true horror, and I won't delve into too many of the details here. You can catch up on nothing personal if you want to know.

Speaker 12 But one of the details I did want to ask him about as someone who cares about him and knows about him because he's got a sick child, daughter in the hospital, is he seems particularly ill-equipped to be trapped in a hospital as someone who likes his control and, you know, is a bit of a control freak, and he's in a situation that leaves him pretty powerless.

Speaker 12 So David, thank you for joining us. And before we get to the sports of the day, why are you still working at a time that it must be very, very hard to work?

Speaker 13 Well, I'm only doing three shows this week. And

Speaker 13 I took two weeks after this happened. And I wanted to get back because I missed the audience.
I missed the feeling of

Speaker 13 trying to be normal, of trying to control stuff. And the thing about having someone who's sick with my daughter is that I can't.
plan anything.

Speaker 13 So during today's this morning's show, two things have happened is that an appointment, doctors don't care about my schedule.

Speaker 13 When an appointment changes, like in the middle of a live show, sometimes I just have to go because I don't get asked to, for, whether, are you free on this day at this time?

Speaker 13 There's no, it's not mutual at all.

Speaker 13 And then you wait 45 minutes. So

Speaker 13 what I'm trying to say is that we had a 9.40 today

Speaker 13 and it's not 9.40 or whatever time you're listening to this. And I get a lovely text saying, hey, sorry, are you okay? 15 minutes late.
Cody couldn't get himself together and I can't stay long today

Speaker 13 because I was supposed to be gone, but then it changed. That's Greg Cody.

Speaker 12 That's all Greg Cody's fault. It's very low on your list of problems and complaints at the moment, but blame Cody.

Speaker 13 No, I just don't understand. If you told Cody, I didn't know.
I spoke to Billy last night, if I could say that, Billy, and

Speaker 13 I was...

Speaker 13 happy to talk to you and and thankful. I don't know if I'm allowed to say that.
I don't know what else to say anymore.

Speaker 12 Well, David doesn't know how to be a human being, and I'm going to betray him now by expressing one of the ways that he tries to be a human being but fails while you cannot express that either.

Speaker 12 No, I'm going to. No rules for anyone.
I have to now.

Speaker 1 There's this lying button.

Speaker 12 All of you guys, all of you guys were deeply touched that David sent you a gift until you started talking and realized he had sent you all the same gift.

Speaker 12 And then Roy realized that he hadn't gotten the same gift that you guys got. And so what was a very thoughtful gesture by David ends up in

Speaker 15 disaster.

Speaker 16 He still actively is.

Speaker 17 I did not want to do this.

Speaker 7 And we all said don't do it on air. I did a place on my wall waiting for that.

Speaker 18 Yes.

Speaker 13 Let me tell you how offended I am. Dan,

Speaker 13 that's just now. That's just wrong what you're doing.
That's just wrong.

Speaker 12 What was the gift?

Speaker 19 One of the coolest things I've ever received.

Speaker 14 Absolutely.

Speaker 13 Genuinely.

Speaker 13 If you can't figure out why certain people in the company got that specific gift, and Roy, if you're listening, it wasn't a Panthers gift. It was a Marlins-related gift.

Speaker 21 He loves baseball.

Speaker 7 I know that about him. Bro, we know that about him.

Speaker 12 He's the only one here who hit a home run at the old Marlins Park.

Speaker 7 I saw it went right over my head. It was very impressive.
Petalbat.

Speaker 13 Dan, that... Listen, if you guys are really pissed, then I have nothing to say to any of you.

Speaker 13 Like, if that's really how you feel,

Speaker 13 then I didn't say they were pissed.

Speaker 12 No, whoa, I didn't say they were pissed.

Speaker 12 I said they were touched. They were all touched.
And then they started talking, and they realized they gotten the same gift.

Speaker 12 And then Roy realized he hadn't gotten a gift because they all talked about how thoughtful your gift was. That's how it happened.
I'm not saying that they were pissed. They were not pissed.

Speaker 12 They all thought it was thoughtful, so thoughtful that they mentioned what a great gift it was. And that's how the cat left the previously aforementioned bag.

Speaker 4 I didn't mention it at all.

Speaker 23 Yeah. And I wrote.

Speaker 13 Are all the notes the same?

Speaker 7 Well, we didn't get her notes.

Speaker 4 I kept it to myself because I assumed you sent me a nice personal gift.

Speaker 4 And then just a couple of minutes ago, when the three of them were talking about a gift they received, received My heart sank I only didn't tell Billy just because I was like wow Billy would love this more than anyone.

Speaker 24 Okay, so if you if you must know and this is a bit of a spoiler alert for upcoming episode of Mystery Crate I yesterday we were talking on mystery crate and I was saying how like you know just how kind of this happened and a timeline whatever and I was like you know and I had a conversation with Dan last Monday was like a really emotional day gone whatever and then I get home and I see this giant box on my doorstep and it's from David Sampson and how how like it was such an emotional day and like forever I'll remember that the day that I came in and had this conversation and said I'm going to be leaving whatever I opened this really thoughtful gift from David Sampson with this nice note whatever and then Chris is like got the same gift and I was like whoa like what happened here I had this memory I was like what a sweet man he sent me this thing it's a difficult time obviously for him as well and I'm never gonna forget that on this hard day for me it ended with this very thoughtful gift and then he's like not as thoughtful I got one too so then Jeremy's like me too it's not any less sweet to me I'm telling you no really made me cry it did I mean come on crocodile wind me let me tell you guys it's it so

Speaker 20 I also David was wondering

Speaker 20 we were talking and I was also wondering David I said you know what is this is this David potentially showing in my face you weren't at this game and you will never have been at this game I'm sending you this lineup card so you never forget what I did to you you son of a f ⁇ so I'll give you the background because now you've done it Dan and it's so wildly inappropriate of you

Speaker 13 but you've that's your choice it's your show it's your name on the show i'm happy for you it's really nice so the background is that i was lucky enough to be at ichiro's game in 2016 when he hit his 3000th hit in colorado And I had the foresight at the time to get lineup cards from that game and have them done and authenticated as the lineup cards from the game.

Speaker 13 And I asked Don Mattingly and managers sign lineup cards and I asked Ichiro to sign the lineup card because he started that game and it had been a big thing.

Speaker 13 Would he play that day and get his 3,000th head on the road or not? Then I got game tickets from that day and I asked Ichiro to sign those. And I had them for 10 years.

Speaker 13 This happened in 16, nine years. And I said after my daughter got sick, I started trying to control those things I could control.

Speaker 13 So I started doing things that I had not done, one of which was to get these framed. And it was no small thing.
I got them framed, and I had a certain number of them.

Speaker 13 And I had to make decisions on who would get them. And now, if you want to feel badly enough, I will tell you, well, I'm not even.

Speaker 7 Go on.

Speaker 13 No. Okay.
I will.

Speaker 13 When you go through and you make a list of who you think would enjoy it, who it would be meaningful to. And I had allocated in my head that it would be for

Speaker 13 my three children would get one and people I've worked with who have a relationship with baseball or with Ichiro,

Speaker 13 including someone else in our company who got one, Dan.

Speaker 13 And I forgot about a name. And so I took one away from

Speaker 13 my sick daughter thinking, A, she doesn't doesn't like baseball b will she not even know if i she doesn't have one cheap trick he just played on us now because i didn't wow once it's all one of the names it's an elaborate dance

Speaker 12 it's an elaborate dance he just did to show

Speaker 7 this is what you must feel like a real asshole dan this is what he just did

Speaker 12 he and you should he just checkmated me because he made his list he makes a lot of little lists he made his list and roy wasn't on it and look at how he just did it this is why he's the grand negotiator that he he is.

Speaker 12 That was sophisticated what he just did to me. It was very good.
It was very well done. Fine.
I put my sword down. That's the reason you didn't get Roy one.

Speaker 13 So that's it. Thank you.
I'm not giving up. Anything else you want to talk about today?

Speaker 4 Roy can have mine now that the emotional aspect of this has been so diluted.

Speaker 19 I will say this, like, it was a replica, and at the time, at the time,

Speaker 13 it was a replica.

Speaker 30 Okay. It's authentically signed.

Speaker 20 No, it is signed. I'm saying it wasn't the one that was in the dugout.

Speaker 19 It doesn't matter.

Speaker 20 None of that matters.

Speaker 16 I don't even know if they weren't plastered all over the dugout, and maybe there were.

Speaker 7 It would be funny if it's like wallpaper on the dugout that day.

Speaker 21 Billy is right. It doesn't matter.

Speaker 14 No, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 19 I will say this, though, because

Speaker 1 they do sell replicas of this thing, but these are not the replicas that they sell.

Speaker 2 These are like hand-marked by Don Mattingly with all of the changes in the game.

Speaker 28 So whether or not it's the one that was in the dugout in the day, it's not like one that you just buy.

Speaker 2 He went in there and it changed the lineup, who came in to pinch hit, what the pitching change.

Speaker 24 Like all of that is marked, which is not something that's available to the public.

Speaker 13 So, Billy, the way we do that is when something special happens, we will ask, and you have to ask Major League Baseball, and the umpires, and the other team, because there's one official lineup card.

Speaker 13 And when and everything's authenticated, there's a sticker on your lineup card. So, it's actually authenticated.

Speaker 13 You can ask for permission to get more lineup cards, just like you can ask to change bases in a big game.

Speaker 13 You can ask to change bases more often so you have have more things to give or to sell or to give to charity or to just have in your collection.

Speaker 13 And so this was a game where we had a thought that he's going to get the four at bats. He's going to get the 3,000th hits.
So we asked for more lineup cards and I had a total of 18 of them made.

Speaker 13 And I've had them with me all this time. And I just now got them all framed and was able to FedEx them with notes to people.
That is true of how that is.

Speaker 19 Genuinely, David, one of the the coolest things I ever got. Genuinely, thank you.

Speaker 1 Like, sincerely.

Speaker 24 And Dan, apologize.

Speaker 31 You ruined this moment.

Speaker 12 Well, I'm not going to apologize. And furthermore, he just claimed he sent me one, and his daughter can have the one that he sent me because I have not seen the one he claimed.

Speaker 13 I didn't send you one. You were cut from the list.

Speaker 7 Oh.

Speaker 13 Okay, but it's okay because the last time I sent you something, that you just don't, your place is cluttered. You have no attachment to it.
I thought there'd be no meaning for you to have it.

Speaker 13 And I thought that Pablo would actually want one. And so Pablo got one.
See, I knew you did not.

Speaker 11 I knew that you thought that that was him saying he also sent one to you. He was scolding you by saying your name.
He wasn't saying he also sent one to Dan.

Speaker 11 He was saying that sent another one. Dan.

Speaker 1 Don't take it personally, David.

Speaker 28 One year I remember is like one of my first years on the show.

Speaker 26 Like I got Dan a Christmas gift and I wrote like a nice, what I thought was a nice like handwritten Christmas card.

Speaker 24 And then we came back from the break like two weeks later.

Speaker 20 And so I was still on the desk and I was like, all right, I'm throwing this in the trash.

Speaker 27 So it's not just.

Speaker 12 I was repressed back then.

Speaker 12 I wasn't somebody more than made up for it.

Speaker 7 I miss that guy.

Speaker 19 Lewis always tells Dan when he leaves, I love you. And Lewis just goes, Thank you, Lewis.

Speaker 7 Thank you.

Speaker 12 I had the same relationship with my father. This is a true story.

Speaker 12 My father, my brother and I would say, I'm saying this as more than 30 years, not joking, me and my brother, Dad, when we say I love you to you, you say I love you back.

Speaker 12 Yeah, and so I just became my father.

Speaker 15 I was repressed, but not anymore.

Speaker 12 I love you, Billy. I love you, David.

Speaker 12 But not Lewis. But not Lewis.
Thank you.

Speaker 33 This show is sponsored by BetterHelp. October 10th was World Mental Health Day.
BetterHelp used that day to put a spotlight on the real heroes, the therapists.

Speaker 33 The ones who show up, listen, and help you figure your life out. Because every session isn't just talk.
It's a moment that matters.

Speaker 33 Like learning to be patient with your kids, fixing a relationship, or finally shutting off your brain at 2 a.m. Now I love my friends, don't get me wrong, but they're not therapists.

Speaker 33 My group chat, total chaos. Sometimes you need someone who knows what they're doing.
That's where BetterHelp comes in.

Speaker 33 Over the last 12 years, they've helped more than 5 million people connect with over 30,000 licensed therapists around the world.

Speaker 33 It's the biggest online therapy platform out there, with a 4.9 rating from over 1.7 million reviews.

Speaker 7 Here's the thing: life's hard on and off the field.

Speaker 33 Talking to someone trained to help can make all the difference. World Mental Health Day has passed, but we're still celebrating the therapists who've helped millions of people take a step forward.

Speaker 34 Don Lebatard.

Speaker 12 You were that kind of sad this morning, taking the barrage of anger from Stugatz because you hadn't booked him enough interviews.

Speaker 12 I, the only reason I keep bringing this up is because you not are throwing a big party on Thursday.

Speaker 12 You're doing it, and I want people to support what you're doing because Stugatz has not made this easy.

Speaker 34 Stugats. Um, well, you know, I, well, yeah, you know, this is the Don Lebatar show with the guys.

Speaker 12 So, the thing I wanted to talk about with David, because he's having some trouble finding, you know, the importance in things that used to be important.

Speaker 12 Baseball, you care about it deeply. These playoffs have been great.

Speaker 12 The level of play is absurd. It's a totally absurd level of play.
You've gotten used to it because it's been like this for about six or seven years. Pitching overwhelming.

Speaker 12 What have been your big baseball takeaways? What have been the things that have reached you?

Speaker 13 I just can't believe everyone throws 98.

Speaker 13 It just at any point in the bullpen, every starter.

Speaker 13 And it turns out, like last night's game with George Kirby, when the Mariners got off to the 2-0 lead, and you're thinking, my God, are the Mariners going to go to their first World Series?

Speaker 13 This is Hollywood stuff. Like Mike Scherstoff, Ichiro, goes into the Hall of Fame.
His number is going to be, is retired.

Speaker 13 There's going to be a statue and they're going to get a World Series appearance and then maybe even a World Series victory if anyone can beat the Dodgers. And everything's going great.

Speaker 13 You got Kirby on the mound. And all of a sudden, Vladimir Guerrero says, okay, I think we're going to win this game.
And the Blue Jays put a 13 spot and Kirby had a wear like seven or eight runs.

Speaker 13 And you realize that, A, the Blue Jays are just a way better team than the Yankees, which is something that we can talk about.

Speaker 13 But B, anytime you think that you've got baseball figured out and that you're looking at a lineup or that a pitching staff that you think is the right one that will get you through October, the truth is, as executives, we don't know that much more than you do.

Speaker 13 We just say that we do because it makes us feel better.

Speaker 12 Oh, but Cody, Cody, Cody, we know he's a boob, but Cody yesterday is if he doesn't know what Monster Mashers Toronto is even without Bachette.

Speaker 12 Cody is at risk of having to walk from here to Seattle on that knee because he thinks that it's he thought at 2020 that it was guaranteed that it's going to be Mariners-Dodgers, and that's foolhardy in this sport.

Speaker 13 Well, it's 11%, Cody. There's 11% chance when a home team loses the first two games of a seven-game series that that team will go on and win the series.
The Yankees did it in 96.

Speaker 13 The Mets did it in 86, and one other team did it, but that's it. But clearly, it's not over if you are Toronto.

Speaker 13 I think the Dodger-Milwaukee series, and I hate to say this for my friends in Milwaukee, who I love and the city I love and for Yelich, who I want to get a ring.

Speaker 13 But it is, I think you're going to see the Dodgers again from the National League. But in the American League, the Blue Jays, think about the game tonight.

Speaker 13 I mean, Max Scherzer has no business pitching a postseason game. He's a number nine starter right now with a number one starter's mouth.
That's what he is.

Speaker 13 And you're looking at Luis Castillo, not the Marlins second baseman, but the Marlins pitcher who we traded five times. He's going for the Mariners, and they have the clear advantage.

Speaker 13 If they go up 3-1, you got to believe. But even then, Toronto can do three in a row without a real big issue.
So this series is up in the air, Chris.

Speaker 12 We know we have to get you out of here. It's not Chris Cody.
It's Greg Cody that's got to walk to Seattle.

Speaker 13 Oh, excuse me. How can Greg Cody walk?

Speaker 22 I'll probably end up doing it for him.

Speaker 24 He said 58 days it'll take him, so he's going to do it.

Speaker 13 You think it takes 58 days to walk from Florida to Seattle? It takes that long to fly to Seattle.

Speaker 24 It takes 60 days, but Greg said he could do it in 58. Now, he also has an appointment tomorrow at the doctor because he has a trick knee right now that he has to have possibly surgery on.

Speaker 24 So it may be delayed, this walk of his.

Speaker 13 This is worse than the onion trick. It's worse than any pepper that could be eaten.
You can't make Greg Cody. I've done some races like this.
You'll kill him. You'll kill him, guys.

Speaker 13 He can't walk across country.

Speaker 12 He made the bet. He's the one who said it.
He shocked me when he volunteered it. He said, with the Mariners up 2-0 and with the Dodgers up 2-0, if it's not Mariners-Dodgers, he will walk to Seattle.

Speaker 13 But that, he didn't mean that.

Speaker 11 He didn't say what he means?

Speaker 13 No,

Speaker 13 he obviously didn't. The question is, what will you make him do? I would make him fly to Seattle.
It's just as bad for Miami.

Speaker 12 I want to get to your movie review for a second, but I also want to talk again about the Expos documentary that you are in. When is that coming out? You are featured in the trailer.

Speaker 12 I assumed you'd be the star and a star villain of this film.

Speaker 12 You have now seen it, yes.

Speaker 13 Yes. Netflix, it's amazing what happens when you have a sick daughter.

Speaker 13 All sorts of ills can be passed over. So Netflix contacted me.
They wanted to be a part of the premiere in Montreal, which was my plan.

Speaker 13 I was going to do a live nothing personal with old Expos players and all sorts of things. And of course, I didn't go to Montreal.
But Netflix said, well, we'd like.

Speaker 13 We'd like you to watch the movie. And I said, okay, do you need my address?

Speaker 13 And I'm such an idiot. I thought they'd send like a screener so I could pretend I was Adman Virk.
Instead, they were just like, hey, give me your email.

Speaker 13 And I said, fine, I don't like giving people email, but you can have it. And all of a sudden, I turn on Netflix and the movie is there.
I had to do a code and all sorts of weird stuff.

Speaker 13 So I watched the movie. And it comes out October 21st.

Speaker 13 And let's just say that the trailer that Netflix cut, the people who made the movie, I'd like to ask your Hollywood people this, the people who made the movie didn't cut the trailer.

Speaker 13 Netflix cut the trailer, and it's not exactly how the movie goes, I'll say. But I am certainly in it as a featured interview, sort of like the narrator that carries the story forward.

Speaker 13 And I make it clear that it is all Derek Jeter's fault, obviously.

Speaker 13 Sorry, the local Canadian partner's fault that the Expo's left.

Speaker 12 Wow, that was something interesting that just happened with your short-circuiting of your brain chemistry.

Speaker 7 That wasn't on paper.

Speaker 12 No, he just instantaneously blamed Jeter.

Speaker 13 I blamed Jeter for, like, I was going to call Jeter and blame him for my daughter's sickness, but I thought that I wouldn't do that.

Speaker 31 That seems a bit like.

Speaker 7 No.

Speaker 31 Did you send Jeter that you threw a card at him?

Speaker 7 No.

Speaker 13 No, I definitely cheetah. He wasn't on any list.

Speaker 13 No. I'd like to know where the pictures are of us from the 03 World Championship that he had removed from Marlins Park.

Speaker 13 Now that he's been fired, I was going to speak to Bruce Sherman and see if we can get those back somehow. Even if he doesn't want to put them up, maybe they could just send them so I could have them.

Speaker 13 But they're all gone from the ballpark. No, obviously Derek had nothing to do, nor would he even wish this.
I haven't heard from him.

Speaker 13 I've heard from a lot of people, but I've not heard from Derek Jeter. And I'm appreciative of everyone I've heard from, but I don't keep track except on a list.
But it is, it is amazing.

Speaker 13 But no, I didn't kill the Expos, Dan, at all. And you'll watch the movie and you'll discover that it was Canadian people who killed the Expos, not me.

Speaker 35 I don't know about you guys, but I'm someone that's constantly adding stuff to different carts on random websites.

Speaker 35 Like there's a teal Marlins hat that's been calling to me for like two and a half years that I'm constantly getting advertisements for.

Speaker 35 It's something eventually I'll purchase because I keep those things in the cart. Then I see it.

Speaker 18 That beautiful glowing purple shop pay button.

Speaker 35 Boom, checkout's done. I don't even have to get up and find my wallet.

Speaker 4 Hey, audience, I got a special treat for you because I want to talk to you about Miller Light, but I want to talk to you about Miller Light with my good friend Rose. Hey, Rose! Hi, everybody!

Speaker 4 When we hang out and we hang out often, we're friends, I consider us friends. Yeah, me too.
We're often toasting the good times. And what am I toasting with?

Speaker 7 With Miller Light.

Speaker 4 That's right, Miller Light. Whether you're hanging out with your dear friend Rose or at game day, it just hits different when you got a Miller Light in your hand.

Speaker 4 From jaw-dropping touchdowns to fantasy heartbreaks, it's a beer that has been there for every moment.

Speaker 4 50 years of great taste, simple ingredients, and that iconic golden color that you can spot across the room. And it's just not the color of the beer, which is brilliant.
That beautiful white can.

Speaker 4 How beautiful is that?

Speaker 4 Is that you doing the sound of a can opening? Is that your favorite sound? Oh, no, it is a horsey.

Speaker 7 A horsey?

Speaker 4 All right, we'll stop doing that. And here's a kicker.
Miller Light is just 96 calories, 3.2 carbs per 12 ounces. The original white beer since 1975.

Speaker 4 That's right. And still hitting different five decades later.
You're so good at this, Rose. I know.
So whatever your game day looks like, remember, Miller time is always a good time.

Speaker 7 Look at us.

Speaker 4 We're a great tag team. I'm five again.
Can you do that beer sound one more time?

Speaker 4 And the horse sound one more time?

Speaker 4 I regret asking you about that one, but the Miller Light sound is good. Miller Light.
Grape taste, 96 calories.

Speaker 7 Oh, ses.

Speaker 36 Hey, it's Tony from the Dan Levittard show, and I got to tell you something that makes makes me feel a lot safer with my wife and kid at home. It's Simply Safe.

Speaker 36 Most security systems only react after a break-in, and that's too late if you want to be honest. Real security stops crime before it even starts.

Speaker 3 I just watched a video that was absolutely terrifying.

Speaker 36 An arson is trying to light a family home on fire. And you know what? SimplySafe stopped it before anybody got hurt.

Speaker 36 Their AI-powered camera spotted the threat, alerted the monitoring agent, and the intruder got confronted while still outside the house.

Speaker 36 That's what I call real security, pre-security, not post-security. I trust SimplySafe with my home, my family, and everything I care about.
No hidden fees, no long-term contracts.

Speaker 36 And they've been named one of the best home security systems by U.S. News for five years running.
Right now, Levatard show listeners can get 50% off a SimplySafe system at simply safe.com/slash DLB.

Speaker 36 That's simplysafe.com/slash DLB. Try it risk-free with their 60-day money-back guarantee and see why I trust them so much.
There's no safe like SimplySafe.

Speaker 34 Don Levatard.

Speaker 7 I kind of agree this is a trap game.

Speaker 34 Stugats.

Speaker 14 I kind of do too, but I wanted to pick the top ones

Speaker 7 against the spread.

Speaker 34 This is the Don Lebatar Show with the Stugats.

Speaker 12 Nothing personal is the name of the podcast. I urge you to listen to it.
He is doing an extraordinary thing because of his connection with his audience.

Speaker 12 He should not be doing that podcast right now, given all of the stuff going on with his life.

Speaker 12 But the audience is helping him and it helps him in some way to have a couple of hours a day, I would assume, where he's thinking about something else. We're running out of time and he's got to go.

Speaker 12 So let's combine two things here.

Speaker 12 First,

Speaker 12 his movie review, but also let's have the bucket come in here and let's have him also select from the Dentech bucket so that he can suffer the punishment. if he loses.

Speaker 12 Give us your review while we're doing the bucket here, David, and we'll just say in the interim what it is that has been selected.

Speaker 13 I've had enough punishments, but I'm happy to do it again. But I'm reviewing a movie that I thought would be the perfect movie for me to watch during this time, and it's called The Threesome.

Speaker 13 How do you watch a movie called The Threesome and not think of Lara Flynn Boyle, Stephen Baldwin, and Josh Charles?

Speaker 7 Great movie.

Speaker 13 How do you not think that you are about to watch something in the middle of the night that's going to actually give you a distraction?

Speaker 13 And it turns out the threesome is about a threesome that happens where they don't show anything. Zoe Deutsch, nothing.
And then all of a sudden, she's pregnant. That's what the movie's about.

Speaker 13 It's about in a threesome when both of the girls get pregnant and what happens after that? It is the most mistitled, mislabeled, mistake movie, wasted time, time that I don't have.

Speaker 13 And I kept hoping, is there going to be like a pregnancy threesome? Is there going to be something else that will draw my interest? and it was about like

Speaker 13 abortion it was about all of these other political topics were you hoping it was going to be porn yes

Speaker 30 Jeremy what did you select called the threesome I took the bangles but I'm putting it back okay

Speaker 12 what are you getting now here let's see what we're doing here David you could have just watched porn

Speaker 30 I got the Giants

Speaker 10 Hey, the bucket is presented by Dentech's Ultimate Fantasy Football Punishment.

Speaker 11 Learn more and sign up your league at dentech.com.

Speaker 12 Bad pick, Jeremy. The Giants are at Denver.
They're a seven and a half point dollars.

Speaker 18 I don't know how I put back minus five or plus five and a half and got something worse.

Speaker 12 Mike Ryan is going now. Have you ever been to the bucket, David?

Speaker 13 Yes, except you didn't make me serve the punishment, which I thought was weird because you make people serve punishments, but you didn't make me.

Speaker 12 You have to serve the punishment. You always.
It's just because Billy's been running the punishments and now Yodonis Haslam is running the punishment, so we're going to fix that.

Speaker 20 I have a plus one credit.

Speaker 28 I'll apply to David on that one.

Speaker 12 Mike, what did you get there?

Speaker 4 Got the Seattle Seahawks against the Texans.

Speaker 7 I will be keeping that.

Speaker 7 All right, what are the

Speaker 13 pick?

Speaker 12 We're going to do that, and we're going to get your punishment. Thank you for volunteering that you had one.
What is the point spread in that game?

Speaker 4 They're playing the Texan foul.

Speaker 7 I'm good. All right.
I'm good. It's three and a half.

Speaker 4 It's all right.

Speaker 12 Yeah, be calm.

Speaker 12 Be cocky about the results of that.

Speaker 21 I was with the Cowboys last week. I was the only guy that lost.

Speaker 12 That'll serve you.

Speaker 21 Now I have to dress like a cowboy.

Speaker 12 Go ahead, Billy.

Speaker 7 Final rummage.

Speaker 12 Get it a good rummage there.

Speaker 13 And then, Billy, could you pick for me in honor of your daughter?

Speaker 12 Is this for you? Is this for you?

Speaker 28 No, this is for me.

Speaker 20 I got a good.

Speaker 31 This is a Billy Rummage. I got a rummage in here.

Speaker 18 I got.

Speaker 7 Swat.

Speaker 7 Oh, are you kidding me? No shitting away.

Speaker 15 He's going to be a brother.

Speaker 15 That's like one of the best things in the other helmet.

Speaker 14 He got the old Sawaparoo there.

Speaker 7 You can put it back.

Speaker 7 All right.

Speaker 7 See here.

Speaker 18 Come on, get a good rummage. Get a good one.

Speaker 18 Oh, I got the Dentech golden helmet of it.

Speaker 7 He got both of the best dishes in there.

Speaker 14 However, I do have that swap if I want to swap with someone.

Speaker 4 Can you gift me with it?

Speaker 22 I got the Lions.

Speaker 7 Monday Night Football against the Bucs. The first end of the doubleheader.

Speaker 12 Five and a half point favorite.

Speaker 7 You want that.

Speaker 12 You've got to keep that.

Speaker 12 I can't believe how well. That's the best.
That is the. On your final trip to the Dentech bucket, you just did better than anyone's ever done at the bucket.

Speaker 24 David wanted him to pick for him, but.

Speaker 7 Ah, look at him.

Speaker 19 He's back, Jack.

Speaker 12 All right, pick for David here. David, the good

Speaker 31 here that you might want are Buffalo or Baltimore. They're on a buy.

Speaker 19 You have one put back, David, so you get to decide here.

Speaker 31 We got the Patriots. Do you want the Patriots?

Speaker 19 They are a seven and a half point favorite at the Titans.

Speaker 18 Ray Bulls returned. You're going to want to keep that, pal.

Speaker 13 I will keep the Patriots, please.

Speaker 12 Okay, so you have to pay the other punishment, though, that

Speaker 12 we forgot about. So we'll figure out how to do that.

Speaker 1 We'll stay on top of it.

Speaker 13 That was two years ago, Dan.

Speaker 25 Well,

Speaker 20 it it expired.

Speaker 12 That's the Metal Arc way. No, no, no.
Stugat still owes a freestyle from the Clevelander that he's got to do on the stage at the Clevelander from seven years ago.

Speaker 24 Well, he's got to come in first.

Speaker 15 Yeah, well, that too.

Speaker 7 I got the Browns.

Speaker 7 We got the Dolphins.

Speaker 12 Yeah, Browns, two and a half-point favorite at home against the Dolphins.

Speaker 7 No, I can't. Don't be a coward.

Speaker 7 What's the matter with Stugger?

Speaker 7 You've been yelling and screaming for that they got to fire everybody, and now you're afraid of them. I root for the Dolphins.
You're a coward. No, I want to root for them.
It's not that I'm afraid.

Speaker 12 You're a coward.

Speaker 7 Steelers.

Speaker 7 Third time of football against the Brungos. Tonight.

Speaker 16 You're so anti-chief.

Speaker 14 You might swap, yeah.

Speaker 7 And you got the Browns. All right.

Speaker 12 The Browns at home against the Dolphins.

Speaker 7 You can swap, though.

Speaker 12 Well, it's up to. I can't swap again.

Speaker 33 What the teams?

Speaker 24 Pats are a good favorite.

Speaker 3 I'll switch with David. I'll take the Patriots.
Wow, David.

Speaker 7 David.

Speaker 7 That's the Golden Helmet of Life. Congratulations.
You just heard about that gift. Yeah, that's stunning.

Speaker 12 David, congratulations. A little gift from Billy there because he hates the rest of us.

Speaker 12 Thank you, Willie,

Speaker 12 for just really making that worse than it needed to be, as always. Thank you, David.

Speaker 4 Bye, David. Love you, dude.

Speaker 13 No, you don't.

Speaker 12 We do love you. We do love you.
That's not true. We do love you.

Speaker 19 And the beard is a good look, by the way.

Speaker 30 Oh, my God.

Speaker 13 Stunning. My daughter loves it.
That's why I have it.

Speaker 7 That's great, dude.

Speaker 13 I hope to grow it to be Letterman size.

Speaker 12 Thank you, David. Big hug from over here.

Speaker 12 Zaz is going to be in South Bend this weekend.

Speaker 12 I want to get to some college football stuff, but first I want to go to the Vatican because I can say in the history of Catholicism, in the history of religion, in the history of God, him or herself, that you have a situation with the Pope that has never before

Speaker 12 been possible, where the Pope is a Cubs fan, and I have not seen this video, I have not heard this audio, and obviously I can't translate Italian. So I hope that this all speaks for itself.

Speaker 12 They lost. Go comes.
Go comes. They lost.
Says the Pope.

Speaker 21 Just dismissively, just like they lost.

Speaker 12 And in flawless English, I cannot explain to you how disorienting that is. I also can't explain to you how much closer to God it brings me.

Speaker 19 Well, he also before like either screamed they lost in either Latin or Italian or something at them first.

Speaker 24 And then he said they lost in translate.

Speaker 25 I love a troll pope.

Speaker 28 I got to be honest with you.

Speaker 20 A pope that's out there giving sports hot takes. I mean we thought we had the pope in Francesca, but now we have a pope pope that's talking sports.

Speaker 18 Like this is great.

Speaker 24 And Dan, I was thinking this. I don't know what you guys feel about this.

Speaker 20 You're going to South Bend this weekend, Zaz, right?

Speaker 17 Yeah.

Speaker 20 I don't know if you've heard this, but Notre Dame, very Catholic.

Speaker 7 I know.

Speaker 10 I heard about that. You know about that touch on Jesus?

Speaker 7 I've heard.

Speaker 24 And then there's also that statue that I think you put like gum on or something that we found out.

Speaker 27 No, Jessica was confused just someone put gum on someone's finger that one time.

Speaker 31 And she's been telling people all these years that that's what they do, which is not what they do.

Speaker 26 So don't put gum on statues.

Speaker 20 Now, Dan, Notre Dame has played in Ireland a number of times because they're Irish, but again, they're also Catholic.

Speaker 28 So, I'm proposing Notre Dame play a game in Vatican City.

Speaker 18 You have a Chicago Pope, you have a Catholic team.

Speaker 20 Could you imagine a game at the Vatican?

Speaker 19 We already saw a concert there like two weeks ago.

Speaker 12 We're about to see an MMA match on the White House lawn. Yes, go ahead and play the Pope again talking about Cubs baseball.

Speaker 19 Does he first say it in Italian?

Speaker 7 They lost.

Speaker 14 That's awesome.

Speaker 19 Then he translates himself.

Speaker 10 Do you think he's ever doing like Pope duties and he's just in a bad mood because the Cubs lost?

Speaker 12 What I think is there are a whole lot of people there next to the Cubs fan wanting to get closer to God and have some acknowledgement and being like, really?

Speaker 12 Like that's what happened? Like I want a blessing from the beyond. And the Pope's sitting here doing a sports talk radio show while he's in the Pope Mobile?

Speaker 4 Well, he's a White Sox fan, so I think part of it is, like, do your research.

Speaker 21 Yeah.

Speaker 23 I put a letter in a note in the Wailing Wall.

Speaker 32 You know, you put notes in it. It's a very religious place in Jerusalem.
I put a note in the Wailing Wall hoping that the Dolphins would win the Super Bowl.

Speaker 20 What a waste. That really does seem like a waste.
It hasn't happened yet.

Speaker 31 Wasting wall.

Speaker 7 Dork.

Speaker 12 Mike mentioned something. I meant to bring this up.

Speaker 1 How old were you when you did that? That wasn't like now, what?

Speaker 29 Right? I was 18.

Speaker 7 oh okay god 18.

Speaker 29 and you're what 58 now 40 years ago that's some bullshit take that back you look good for 58 he does you too that's some bullshit it's a couple bullshits right there how old are you

Speaker 12 since you did that the dolphins haven't won a playoff game yeah i put it in merinos last year marino

Speaker 4 i i genuinely don't know how old you are it's because you wear this backwards hat that keeps you so young looking thanks man i appreciate that

Speaker 32 And I shaved my beard so I look like a kid again.

Speaker 16 I got like a Benjamin Buttons thing going on here.

Speaker 24 And he writes a skateboard to work.

Speaker 12 I think you put an S on button, and that's what old people do. Yeah, that's what I do.

Speaker 15 I put S's where they don't belong.

Speaker 12 That's exactly how that happens. But Mike enjoys calling other people dorks.

Speaker 12 And one of the things that he did earlier this week is he said, No, I've never scored a baseball game because I'm an adult who has sex.

Speaker 12 But there are many parents who have sex who score baseball games, including Greg Cody, because they have children and they score baseball games.

Speaker 7 Oh, people that score, they do have sex.

Speaker 2 Yeah, sex is cool, but have you ever written 6-4-3 on a scorecard?

Speaker 7 Touch me, they have sex.

Speaker 12 Not four-play, 6-4-3-play.

Speaker 33 Put it on the poll

Speaker 12 at Lebatard show.

Speaker 14 So backwards, Kay, if it's looking.

Speaker 12 Who's cooler, person who has sex or person who keeps score of a baseball game?

Speaker 7 Can't wait to see the results.

Speaker 17 When they bat around the order and you have to figure out, well, what am I going to do next in the next inning?

Speaker 12 What are you looking forward to in South Bend? Because it does really appear.

Speaker 12 I do think if we're not doing any rankings, if we're not doing anything other than just watching football, I think most of the people listening to this would say that Tulos Notre Dame is one of the better teams in the country because they played with Miami and Texas A ⁇ M, even though they lost to Miami and Texas A ⁇ M.

Speaker 12 I said to you yesterday that there are not a lot of teams in the country that would be, like Miami is, a two-touchdown favorite against Louisville. I think Notre Dame might be one of them.

Speaker 12 I don't think I can name five teams in the country that the money would say, I've watched football this year and I believe that team to be a two-touchdown favorite against Louisville.

Speaker 12 I think everybody would be scared of Louisville's Louisville.

Speaker 7 Lull. Louisville.

Speaker 16 I think Mike is saying it properly.

Speaker 7 That's right.

Speaker 12 Okay. Name the teams that you guys believe would be two touchdown favorites against

Speaker 4 Ohio State.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I think that's it.

Speaker 12 Miami

Speaker 4 is

Speaker 4 13 and a half now.

Speaker 12 I think Notre Dame might also be favored like that. I think Texas AM might also be favored like that.

Speaker 7 Depends on what you're saying.

Speaker 35 Oregon at home, maybe USF if you put them in Alabama uniforms.

Speaker 12 I don't think that Oregon at home would be that kind of favorite after what happened with Indiana. They might be bad.

Speaker 12 Well, I'm here to tell you, yes, Oregon might be bad given what happened against Penn State and given everything we've seen that's happened around Penn State. But I remind you.

Speaker 4 I'm not sure if I'm thinking sportsbook, you can get Oregon to miss the playoffs north of plus 200.

Speaker 12 I remind you, though, as we do transitive property of trying to figure out, not just in college football, pro football.

Speaker 12 Like, I think a lot of people, it's a crazy thing to say after this many games, but it happens with the randomness of injuries and kids, who's good. Who's good?

Speaker 12 You got like, I ask you, you're watching an awful lot of football.

Speaker 12 And if I ask you who's good college and pros, you're going to have a hard time giving me 10 teams, like total, 10 teams that you know to be good.

Speaker 12 That's an an issue with us too because good football teams are like nine win teams 10 win teams you're a real good football team but we've made good like championship good or bust and what happens with louisville uh and miami i think uh the money is doing this for this reason when i say again and again and it's not something i've done before when i i it isn't over the last 20 years You will not find me saying that Randy Shannon beating Oklahoma at home makes Miami good.

Speaker 12 You will not find me saying that after two wins against Notre Dame, the only top 10 wins that Miami has since 2017, that Miami is back in good. But this is why I'm willing to say it.

Speaker 12 It's not even the victories against Notre Dame, Florida, or Florida State. It's not any of those victories that make me say it, although in the cumulative, I do think they can beat you a ton of ways.

Speaker 12 16-play drive at the start of the third quarter against Notre Dame. Just hold the football game.

Speaker 12 The way they've won Florida State, Florida, and Notre Dame games are one kind of impressive, but those games look close on the scoreboard, even though they weren't that close.

Speaker 12 The one that makes me know that Miami is good is the win over South Florida because I know South Florida is good. And I know no one else in the country thinks this.

Speaker 12 I'm telling you, South Florida is good. And they dragged them the whole game the way they could have to Florida, Florida State, or Notre Dame, but they let their foot off the gas.

Speaker 12 Against South Florida, what they did is they they dragged a team that I believe could be in the playoffs good.

Speaker 12 I'm not even kidding when I tell you that the South Florida team, if I put it in an Auburn uniform, you guys would be saying, if I put it in an Alabama uniform, you guys would be saying that's a top 10 team because the athletes on that team are really good athletes.

Speaker 11 I've been saying all season on ESPN radio, I think USF's a playoff team.

Speaker 35 And this is the team, by the way, that's given up an average of 31 points the last two weeks to Charlotte in North Texas.

Speaker 12 They are not good at defense. They are good at offense.

Speaker 19 Just confirming.

Speaker 12 And those athletes are really good. I love their playoffs.

Speaker 11 They're going to be the fifth conference champion.

Speaker 16 They're going to win the American, and they're going to make the playoffs.

Speaker 12 It can be a flawed team, Jeremy, or even half a team and make the playoffs. There are so many half-a-teams out there where they've got one good unit, and those are going to be in the playoffs.

Speaker 11 I mean, the fifth conference champion.

Speaker 7 Yeah, no, there's going to be a choice.

Speaker 16 There's always a group of five team that will make it now with the new. They're going to be that team.

Speaker 12 Of course. South Florida was slowed by Florida and Miami because Florida and Miami have playoff good defenses.
South Florida is not going to get slowed by many people.

Speaker 12 South Florida should be respected the same way we're respecting Louis.

Speaker 12 Because

Speaker 12 Louis has done it longer and is going to get respect for offense and big-game surprises. But that South Florida team, I'm absolutely telling you,

Speaker 12 Jeremy, if you watched, I did watch that Charlotte game. They were up 23-0 in the first quarter and they dropped six passes right in their chest against Charlotte.

Speaker 12 That game was not in any way close, but yes, their defense is flawed, absolutely flawed, but their offense is not. It only got slowed by playoff-worthy defenses.

Speaker 4 Hey, audience, I got a special treat for you because I want to talk to you about Miller Light, but I want to talk to you about Miller Light with my good friend Rose. Hey, Rose.
