Local Hour: 28 Nuggets

Speaker 2 All right, Smirnoff, official vodka of the NFL, world's number one vodka. Chris Cody, you're with me here.

Speaker 3 Smirnoff!

Speaker 2 Wow, you're on the money with Smirnoff. Spinoff.
I'm gonna ask you, Chris, what's your favorite game day food? Smirnoff! Not your favorite game day drink. What's your favorite game day food? Smirnoff!

Speaker 2 All right, here's the deal: game day is everything: the noise, the rituals, the passion, the dip, the wings, the dip again. Spirit off.

Speaker 2 Smirnoff off belongs in that mix because if you're tailgating or hosting or just sitting there checking your fantasy lineup every 30 seconds, you need Smirnoff! Otherwise, it's not a real game day.

Speaker 2 They've been doing it since 1864, which is, I don't even want to do the math. It's a long time.

Speaker 5 Now is a good time to remember where Tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila.
Cuervo.

Speaker 10 What are you doing here? Cuervo.

Speaker 11 Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.

Speaker 12 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.

Speaker 15 Sweet, delicious Cuervo.

Speaker 16 Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.

Speaker 17 The same family, the same land, the same passion. Cuervo.

Speaker 6 So, enjoy the tequila that started it all.

Speaker 18 Cuervo.

Speaker 20 Cuervo.

Speaker 5 The tequila. That invented tequila.

Speaker 21 Brooksimo, Cuervo.com, please drink responsibly. Cuervo.

Speaker 3 Chris,

Speaker 15 you got a challenge ahead of you today. Yeah.

Speaker 26 Of course, the way we go around here, it's not exactly going as I planned, but I have to eat a shit ton of nuggets.

Speaker 15 Do you have a strategy?

Speaker 26 Well, the plan was to have fried ones.

Speaker 27 And I guess I think those are on the way, by the way.

Speaker 29 So we have fried ones are on the way.

Speaker 26 What what happened was, is there was a delivery issue with the fried ones. So I have more grilled nuggets than I could ever want.

Speaker 15 Who orders grilled nuggets?

Speaker 33 I've never had one.

Speaker 34 I don't think I even know what a grilled nugget looks like.

Speaker 26 And as I hold one, they're just. I thought you see everything.
It looks like little chicken breasts cut up into pieces.

Speaker 36 They're good.

Speaker 26 Are they good? I'll tell you. You want me to take my first bite right now in the shadow shop? Not bad.
Why not? All right. One down the hatch.

Speaker 15 Here we go.

Speaker 36 That is a big nugget.

Speaker 15 That was a big one. Bigger than I expect from Chick-fil-A.

Speaker 37 From

Speaker 15 a certain chicken establishment.

Speaker 39 Honestly,

Speaker 40 decent.

Speaker 1 Hello down.

Speaker 41 Did you get to pick where, like, the kind nugget you wanted?

Speaker 26 I got some options.

Speaker 30 Yeah. I thought this one would be the easiest.

Speaker 26 I think of them as the smallest. Yeah.
I think of them as, I don't know what I'm doing here, but I think of them as lightly.

Speaker 26 It just feels like a more genuine breading.

Speaker 15 The breading is not as thick. Like the McDonald's one is like almost like a shield of armor.

Speaker 26 So I'm not excited. And I was at my parents' house last night, night.
My dad going under the knife right about now.

Speaker 26 I'm glad this is what I'm doing while my dad is having a very serious procedure done.

Speaker 4 Seriously, can I text him to knee to support?

Speaker 26 I was at you can, yes. I was at my parents' house last night, and my mom, my wife, not happy with this.

Speaker 27 They're like, this doesn't seem healthy.

Speaker 26 Why'd you agree to this? Why did it? And I'm like, I actually had a lot of options.

Speaker 8 I picked it.

Speaker 15 Juju, put it on the poll. Who's more likely to die today, Chris or Greg?

Speaker 41 This is the Don Levatar Show with the Stu Gats Podcast.

Speaker 15 Today feels like a fun day.

Speaker 15 I know it's been fun all week, but today especially feels like a fun day. We have a challenge happening right now.
Number two. Chris Cody's got to eat 99 chicken nuggets before the end of the show.

Speaker 15 Has to.

Speaker 26 Has to attempt to.

Speaker 24 It's a gray line.

Speaker 41 Well, how do we judge attempting?

Speaker 26 Right now, you're looking at it.

Speaker 15 He's doing it.

Speaker 2 If it's an authentic effort, like we'll see.

Speaker 8 We don't want Chris throwing off on camera.

Speaker 43 Effort.

Speaker 44 What has this come to?

Speaker 9 Well, we will. What does this come to?

Speaker 38 Billy ate an onion and went to the hospital for three days well that's for a tempting time essentially couldn't get worse it's zoron's miami christ almighty respectfully speaking billy didn't want to eat the onion he was forced to which is the point he needs to be forced do you think you got a chris cody counter by the way up in the corner but here's the thing about chris i know this about chris okay i've spent a lot of time with chris me and him have break broken a lot of bread together he's a big guy okay but he doesn't eat that much for real he's a guy that eats very very small.

Speaker 26 I do all my real eating in hiding.

Speaker 50 Yeah, like

Speaker 26 when I'm in public, you look at me, you're like, that's a normal.

Speaker 39 Yeah, he eats normal.

Speaker 16 His caloric intake inside the car is astronomical.

Speaker 33 Oh, man, it's gross.

Speaker 26 You should see the in between my seats.

Speaker 49 Oh, yeah. The little, the

Speaker 15 fry, fry carcasses.

Speaker 27 I took a ride with him.

Speaker 51 There was an entire cheesy Gordita.

Speaker 26 Every once in a while, I'll just do a gander down there, and it's just a, oh.

Speaker 26 That's when I know I need my car cleaned.

Speaker 15 Chris's car has a whole fast food service thing like a menu. Like Richie Rich.
It's like just right there in the car. It's like, hello, Mr.
Cody, what do we have today?

Speaker 27 As usual?

Speaker 13 I reached back to get the seatbelt, and it was just a Mountain Dew Baja blast.

Speaker 41 Are you doing any dipping?

Speaker 26 I'm starting with Ranch. They don't have Polynesian.
We are not prepared for this.

Speaker 23 Oh, what?

Speaker 37 Wow.

Speaker 3 We can't.

Speaker 27 Are we going to get that fast?

Speaker 8 I can't work like this. Tariffs.

Speaker 15 I want to... point out something that probably isn't going to tickle that many people, but it tickles us.

Speaker 15 So yesterday, there were actually nuggets in the building to, hey, pack these up and save them for Chris for tomorrow for his big challenge.

Speaker 15 And as they put them in the fridge, there was a conversation. Should there be a note placed upon it saying, Gino, do not eat these because Gino Fuentes is notorious.

Speaker 41 Oh, he's a he's a fridge thief.

Speaker 15 He's notorious. Notorious.
At the lunch, whenever the lunch isn't finished, you ever wonder why there aren't any leftovers in the fridge?

Speaker 41 Yeah, I do wonder like who takes the leftovers.

Speaker 15 Gino Fuentes.

Speaker 51 Wow, you're outing my boy heavy.

Speaker 15 I am. I am.
But I'm here to defend him because, of course, no nut was left. And of course, the nuggets were eaten.
And everyone said, Gino. And I said, nope.

Speaker 15 This is like saying there was a shark attack. You guys went in the water.

Speaker 52 You knew what it was when you went in.

Speaker 15 Shark did shark things.

Speaker 2 Look, Billy said, watch out for Gino for a reason.

Speaker 37 Well, certainly around food.

Speaker 15 That's a non-negotiable one right there. You have to watch out around Gino when it comes to...
I'm happy now.

Speaker 26 I got my fried nuggets here. I got some chick-okay.

Speaker 3 Okay.

Speaker 26 No, no, this is not Paulines.

Speaker 30 This is Chick-fil-A.

Speaker 15 I can't work like this. Yeah, no.

Speaker 22 Chris doesn't like Chick-fil-A.

Speaker 30 I don't.

Speaker 38 Neither do I. Who does?

Speaker 39 It's I.

Speaker 55 I do. It's okay.

Speaker 26 To me, it's combining two unnecessary condiments. I'm not a big honey mustard guy, not a big barbecue guy.

Speaker 41 Oh, honey mustard. Come on.

Speaker 47 Not for me, Clive.

Speaker 27 Okay.

Speaker 56 Throwback.

Speaker 15 Mike, thoughts on the revelation? of the college football playoff rankings version 1.0.

Speaker 57 Do you want the national perspective or the homorific Miami one?

Speaker 15 It's local to our baby.

Speaker 8 You know what I want.

Speaker 18 So

Speaker 57 I'm actually fine with where Miami is ranked, although in the top 25, you have a handful of teams that have the same record as another team that they played head-to-head.

Speaker 34 And in every case but one, the team that won the head-to-head matchup was ranked over the team that lost.

Speaker 15 What was the one?

Speaker 39 Miami Notre Dame. Oh.

Speaker 35 Now, I actually think that there's...

Speaker 60 There was encouraging messaging from the committee.

Speaker 51 They said that they need to see a more consistent Miami. The good news for Miami is there's a month left in the season and they can't lose another game.

Speaker 62 It's pointless right now to have these conversations about comparing resume.

Speaker 10 Not pointless.

Speaker 62 I mean, it's good water cooler talk, but if Miami doesn't go 4-0, they don't belong in the discussion, period.

Speaker 40 Full stop.

Speaker 59 That being said, it's a little confusing, but I do think that if Miami puts together clean football for a month, they'll be in that discussion.

Speaker 41 Right now, over the last month, because you got to include a bye week there, Miami has played well for two quarters that's what that's what the CFP has seen recently and they're taking the recent stuff into account let me ask you something if the canes win their final four games does that jump you seven spots because that's what the canes need they need to jump seven spots college football is wacky but i i do think that

Speaker 28 Do you see Notre Dame falling in the rankings?

Speaker 38 No.

Speaker 29 I only see them climbing.

Speaker 7 Only climbing.

Speaker 60 I mean, they have a tough game against Pitt, a common opponent that Miami will close the season.

Speaker 15 And Pitt plays Georgia Tech as well. That's a huge difference.

Speaker 46 Three straight weeks.

Speaker 15 Pitt is playing against teams that are. Georgia Tech.

Speaker 28 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 28 I think Pitt's got three ranked opponents to close the year.

Speaker 62 Georgia Tech has a couple of big games won.

Speaker 41 So as a Kanes fan, you're rooting for Pitt here.

Speaker 58 I actually think Notre Dame winning isn't all that bad.

Speaker 62 If Notre Dame wins out, they're going to be...

Speaker 38 No, no, I mean, like, you're rooting for Pitt to get wins.

Speaker 41 You want them to knock off Georgia Tech.

Speaker 41 You want the Kanes to eventually beat Pitt in the final game where it's like, okay, this is a good win.

Speaker 35 I think the committee has told you they actually value head-to-head matchups.

Speaker 59 The one example is Miami, but if Miami puts together a month of clean football in which they have a good solid point differential, I think they'll be in that discussion.

Speaker 35 I really do. They were in that discussion last year without the resume that they have this year, without the defense that they have this year.

Speaker 41 Yeah, but like, what were the Kanes going into that last week where they lost to Syracuse? What were they ranked?

Speaker 57 I think they were certainly in CFP position.

Speaker 41 Right. So, I mean, that's a major difference.

Speaker 50 Yeah, but look, they're 18 right now.

Speaker 13 You need to get inside the top 11.

Speaker 29 I think that that can happen.

Speaker 50 People, look what happened with Texas.

Speaker 1 I told you guys on the air a month and a half ago,

Speaker 59 they're already pouring dirt on Texas's grave.

Speaker 13 Watch this SEC work.

Speaker 7 If you're going to lose, lose early.

Speaker 16 Watch this SEC work.

Speaker 59 They're talking out of both sides of their mouth, too, because it matters what you've done recently. Now, Texas hasn't lost recently, but they went to overtime against Mississippi State.

Speaker 35 They barely got over the line against Kentucky.

Speaker 30 They almost blew it against Vanderbilt.

Speaker 35 They're going to help these SEC teams, and we'll fight that propaganda fight, but Mario and company need to do their job.

Speaker 51 I feel pretty good about Miami's argument once it gets to that point.

Speaker 60 Also, national perspective, don't understand the Oregon thing. Their best win is against Northwestern.

Speaker 53 They're doing the exact same shit that they did last year with Mizzou in ranking Tennessee.

Speaker 59 Tennessee's best win is against Mississippi State. They have no business being ranked.

Speaker 34 They are only ranked number 25, so three teams can say they have a ranked victory.

Speaker 17 And it's Tennessee.

Speaker 66 This is how it works.

Speaker 17 But I'm encouraged because a lot of people, I love the national narrative and I love the discourse, a lot of people are seizing on, hey, this doesn't make sense.

Speaker 6 These two teams played. That should matter.

Speaker 35 So you got a month to play good football.

Speaker 65 I like where Miami's at.

Speaker 44 I think the tough part for Kanes fans that you don't control your own destiny, right?

Speaker 49 You're hoping that things happen ahead of you and you're like, oh man, hoping a lot of people.

Speaker 43 Hopefully Pitt can beat somebody. Hopefully the Canes can beat Pitt.
Hopefully Virginia Tech can upset somebody somewhere.

Speaker 29 And it's like, I think it'll all work out. I think it'll all work work out.

Speaker 4 It's college football.

Speaker 2 What's pretty funny is like, what happens if Pitt just wins all those games? Because then they'd be a two-loss team with wins over Notre Dame, Georgia Tech, and Miami in their last three weeks.

Speaker 28 Well, what happens is...

Speaker 41 If they win all those games, they'd play Virginia in the ACT Championship, right?

Speaker 40 Well, Bella's.

Speaker 4 Miami closes the season with Pitt.

Speaker 35 No, but I'm saying if they win

Speaker 3 three games left, and

Speaker 2 they're Notre Dame, Georgia Tech, Miami.

Speaker 2 If they somehow pull off an upset of all three, like we're rooting for Pitt right now, but they might just be the team that's sort of the sleeping giant in this entire scenario.

Speaker 2 They only have two losses and one of them's an overtime.

Speaker 34 And the CFP argument would be they're a totally different team after they made the quarterback change, too.

Speaker 15 I don't know. I don't know, man.
I don't know. Like, do we want Notre Dame to lose to Pitt?

Speaker 60 I think the argument to be made is you want Notre Dame to keep winning. And I know I'm in the minority.

Speaker 34 A lot of people think that you want Pitt to keep winning to set up a big, important game at the end of the season.

Speaker 34 I think you call checkmate on the CFP committee, and they've kind of tipped their hand with how they value head-to-heads everywhere else.

Speaker 60 And their own words is they need to see a more consistent Miami.

Speaker 34 Thankfully, you have a month to show them.

Speaker 62 So you put yourself in that position and you dare them to do what they did

Speaker 10 a month prior, which is ranked Notre Dame ahead of Miami.

Speaker 41 So if we're talking about how much they value head-to-heads, all right,

Speaker 41 how much does head-to-head

Speaker 41 weigh up against what you looked like in the beginning of the season versus what you look like now?

Speaker 59 But now is not what the end of the season looks like.

Speaker 52 Look at what a month did to Texas.

Speaker 34 They were dead in the water at a national punchline. They didn't even have to look good in these games.

Speaker 62 They beat an injured John Matier and barely made it out against the likes of historical punchlines in the SEC, Kentucky, Mississippi State, and Vanderbilt.

Speaker 27 They almost got to the end.

Speaker 41 Yo, Mississippi State's sneaky decent.

Speaker 40 Yeah, well, Georgia's going to find out.

Speaker 34 Georgia's going to find out in traveling to Stark Vegas this week.

Speaker 53 No, Mississippi State is a tough team.

Speaker 34 It's not easy, but they're not a blue blood in the SEC.

Speaker 65 I think a lot can happen in a month.

Speaker 59 A month is a very long time.

Speaker 55 November is historically wacky in this sport.

Speaker 52 I think if Miami puts itself in position to go 4-0, look good in those games, they'll be undeniable if Notre Dame keeps winning.

Speaker 59 And I know more people think that Pitt keeping on winning and setting up a clash against Miami will matter.

Speaker 59 And then we'll do that whole thing where Miami's win against Pittsburgh isn't that impressive because it'll drag Pittsburgh down.

Speaker 34 So I don't even want to be in that scenario. I think your best path is Notre Dame looking like the best team in the country and you having having that win under your cap.

Speaker 16 Folks, the leaves are turning.

Speaker 58 The weather's getting a little chillier.

Speaker 53 That means the football games are more important.

Speaker 27 That means football time should be Miller time.

Speaker 38 Game day hits different with a Miller light in your hand.

Speaker 51 From jaw-dropping touchdowns to fantasy heartbreaks, my fantasy season's over already, but you know what makes that better? Miller time!

Speaker 51 It's the beer that's been there for every moment. 50 years of great taste, simple ingredients, and that iconic golden color you can spot from across the room.
And here's the kicker.

Speaker 16 It's just 96 calories, 3.2 carbs per 12 ounces.

Speaker 19 The original light beer since 1975 and still hitting different five decades later.

Speaker 51 So whatever your game day looks like, remember Miller time is always a good time. Miller Light, great taste, 96 calories.
Go to millerlight.com slash Dan to find delivery options near you.

Speaker 16 Or you can pick up Miller Light pretty much anywhere they sell beer.

Speaker 51 It's Miller Time.

Speaker 59 Celebrate responsibly.

Speaker 16 Miller Brewing Company, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 96 calories and 3.2 carbs per 12 ounces.

Speaker 60 When I think about the holidays, I think about the little moments with my dog, Roma. The ones that make the season feel special.

Speaker 40 Pull little elf ears on her.

Speaker 12 You know the deal.

Speaker 13 Take some selfies, post it for people that probably seen it too much.

Speaker 1 Stugats.

Speaker 39 I ain't cheating.

Speaker 69 This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugats.

Speaker 41 Yo, Chris don't look so hot right now.

Speaker 26 I'm not going to lie, I thought these nuggets were going to be smaller.

Speaker 31 You should go two at a time.

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 15 I thought he was going two at a time.

Speaker 26 That was my plan. In my mind, these nuggets were half these size.

Speaker 15 If you weren't listening to the local uh during the excuse me during the shadow show he is not looking good yeah chris chris said his wife and his mom both expressed concern about this challenge i'm cooking right now 14 in that's a pretty good yeah but like your eyes are watering i don't know i mean i'm already knowing that i'm going to hate all of today did they get you the polynesian sauce no but i don't even know if i want it at this point i think i'm about to ditch the ranch have you considered you know doing the the you know the nathan's hot doggy move where you dunk it dunk in the water don't do that don't do that i'm not there yet

Speaker 33 We're not that desperate.

Speaker 15 And also, that's more about speed more than number. That's about, like, I need to get all of these in now in the shortest amount of time rather than

Speaker 26 filling up here.

Speaker 26 It should be a group effort with everyone in the room.

Speaker 15 I mean,

Speaker 15 it's his punishment.

Speaker 46 I see that.

Speaker 26 I stuck a comment after comment.

Speaker 2 It's like, he does not have the YouTube channel.

Speaker 50 Don't get me wrong.

Speaker 27 He doesn't. I'm a liar.

Speaker 27 Comment after comment.

Speaker 26 I'm looking at it right here.

Speaker 15 I would love to partake, but I don't want to ruin the integrity of the challenge here. No, of course, do that.

Speaker 53 All right, we'll keep going here.

Speaker 52 Here are all the head-to-head matchups inside the CFP where the committee got it right.

Speaker 63 Alabama is number four. They're ahead of number five, Georgia.
Why?

Speaker 28 Because they beat Georgia.

Speaker 62 Number five, Georgia is ahead of number six, Ole Miss.

Speaker 30 Why? Because they beat Ole Miss.

Speaker 70 Number 11, Texas is ahead of number 12, Oklahoma.

Speaker 65 Why?

Speaker 10 They beat Oklahoma.

Speaker 59 USC, number 19, ahead of number 21, Michigan.

Speaker 10 They have a head-to-head victory.

Speaker 62 Michigan is ahead of Washington because they beat Washington.

Speaker 17 Miami is eight spots behind Notre Dame.

Speaker 34 They are the lone outlier.

Speaker 9 Look, I'm for Miami, okay?

Speaker 1 Like, I want them in.

Speaker 41 Let's make that abundantly clear. But all of those examples you just gave, like Alabama, Georgia, Texas, Oklahoma,

Speaker 41 and the team that won is ahead of them.

Speaker 1 Those teams are all playing well right now.

Speaker 41 Notre Dame's playing well. The Cades are not.
Exactly. And hence they're eight spots behind.

Speaker 34 It's a gag, which is why Miami needs to play well for a month to be in this argument, because I think Miami is properly ranked right now.

Speaker 27 I think so too.

Speaker 63 If this is the end of the season, you can throw your arms up and say, why doesn't the head-to-head matter?

Speaker 28 It's what you're going off right now.

Speaker 59 The committee themselves said they need to see a more consistent Miami for us to entertain that discussion. Give them that reason to entertain that discussion.

Speaker 53 They'll be fine.

Speaker 62 The hardest thing that Miami has in front of them, because we can talk about permutations and how the propaganda machine works for the Big Ten and the SEC and how the hell is Oregon ranked number nine.

Speaker 16 None of that shit matters.

Speaker 13 The hardest thing for Miami to do is bounce back from the loss at SMU and run the table the rest of the way.

Speaker 53 If they do that, I feel good.

Speaker 61 That is a huge mountain for them to climb.

Speaker 15 And we know we can trust the committee because they took off their hats and put on that hat rack.

Speaker 57 Yes, their crispy white hats that they were given as they walked into the facility just for the phone.

Speaker 15 Somebody asked yesterday, how do you know whose hat is who? Because they're not taking any of those hats home. The hat stayed on the rack.
They left.

Speaker 26 What do you guys think about this strategy? I go ham.

Speaker 47 On the chicken for this first local hour.

Speaker 33 Like actual ham.

Speaker 41 I take Big Sue

Speaker 15 off.

Speaker 21 Oh, you can't take it off.

Speaker 27 And then out of one, we go back at it.

Speaker 41 Well, what would going ham, like, what would your goal then be by the end of the local hour?

Speaker 38 30. I got to do it.
So then you have two minutes. So then you have to do.

Speaker 41 Okay, so then you're saying you did 30 the first half of the day. Yes.
And then you want to do 60 the second half. You have no chance.

Speaker 26 You know, I'm just trying to put a good effort in your business. You're pacing well.

Speaker 46 You're pacing well.

Speaker 54 You're doing good. You're doing good.

Speaker 26 But I don't know if I can keep this pace.

Speaker 2 Why not? We have to figure out at some point in this show what will qualify as completing the challenge.

Speaker 30 challenge? 40.

Speaker 36 Well, also 99.

Speaker 29 No, no, no.

Speaker 49 99.

Speaker 44 That's the punishment.

Speaker 48 It's not like have Chris eat lunch early.

Speaker 29 It's a punishment for losing at the Dent Tech Bucket.

Speaker 71 It needs to be 51%.

Speaker 15 I got to ask this question.

Speaker 66 That is such an out 50 week effort.

Speaker 38 It's a weak weak effort.

Speaker 3 That is weak.

Speaker 15 Let me ask the question, sucker.

Speaker 1 Braun Strowman yesterday.

Speaker 27 That would make him a sucker, right? Hold on.

Speaker 15 Braun Strowman yesterday, we asked him, do you have any advice for Chris? And he talked about fasting and he talked about drinking water.

Speaker 26 I did drink a bunch of water water this morning. Okay.
And then I peed when I got in. I felt like my stomach was wide open.

Speaker 15 Did you fast at all yesterday? No. You had dinner.

Speaker 26 I heard that the fasting thing was not like, I saw it in the comments.

Speaker 50 Yeah, I don't think that helps.

Speaker 15 Comments, as a guy who's doing it, Michael Jordan is giving you insights to excellence. And you're going to say, no, let me listen to the comments.

Speaker 26 So many times in my life, I'm always like, I am so hungry.

Speaker 9 I'm going to eat a house.

Speaker 26 And then you eat, like, when you're that hungry, you don't eat as much.

Speaker 21 Yeah.

Speaker 33 Why are you doing 99, by the way?

Speaker 2 It's because of Joey Chestnut. This all came from Joey Chestnut ate 99 nuggets, I believe, at a baseball game in the span of 10 minutes.

Speaker 2 And so we added the Joey Chestnut challenge, but it's a challenge.

Speaker 13 Like, this is where we will all need to determine

Speaker 2 where I like, I actually like our ruling on 51%. It gets him to 51 nuggets over the course of 30 minutes.

Speaker 27 And he's only doing half of the podcast.

Speaker 54 Pass.

Speaker 26 It's a ridiculous challenge that nobody could do.

Speaker 27 The whole point is that nobody could do it.

Speaker 15 Joey Chestnut.

Speaker 8 Yeah, but he's only just 10 minutes.

Speaker 15 I don't know nobody could do that.

Speaker 41 I'll tell you, I think I have the the answer. All right.
And I think the timing is appropriate here.

Speaker 41 This is a committee right here.

Speaker 56 This is a committee.

Speaker 27 You are a judge.

Speaker 39 Hold on.

Speaker 15 Can we get a hat rack in here?

Speaker 41 This is a committee. And if we get to a place where the committee decides that an acceptable effort has been made to achieve the goal, then I think you're good.

Speaker 2 An update on the challenge for Joey Chestnut. So he was challenged to do a 99 in nine.
So 99 nuggets in 9

Speaker 32 innings, yeah.

Speaker 2 He ate 275.

Speaker 27 Damn. Okay.
What a show off.

Speaker 49 Damn. 99 in 10 minutes.

Speaker 27 Damn.

Speaker 26 I just, you guys are making me have less energy for this.

Speaker 9 If I think that if I don't, if I put in a great effort, I eat 65.

Speaker 27 Okay, but 66.

Speaker 46 You're telling me I got to do the next week?

Speaker 15 Like, that's horrible. Chris, you're Miami Hurricanes football right now, right?

Speaker 46 Horse shit.

Speaker 15 The only thing you can do is win out.

Speaker 39 That's horrible.

Speaker 15 And hope the committee sees kindly on your most recent escapades, but complaining about it like certain people, that ain't going to help. You just got to go out there and win, baby.

Speaker 15 By the way, have we ever had the 999 challenge as one of the

Speaker 15 punishment?

Speaker 52 I wanted to do it, man. What is that?

Speaker 15 You go to a baseball game and you have nine hot dogs.

Speaker 41 Baseball is not happening right now.

Speaker 69 When it was happening,

Speaker 44 you see everything.

Speaker 15 Nine hot dogs

Speaker 15 and nine beers

Speaker 15 over the course of nine years.

Speaker 36 No way.

Speaker 49 So it's

Speaker 49 a dog and a beer.

Speaker 45 A dog and a beer.

Speaker 46 99 nuggets this morning.

Speaker 15 No one said it's got to be the tall boy beer, right?

Speaker 54 No one's going to say it's got to be a Dodger dog.

Speaker 15 A regular hot dog and a regular beer.

Speaker 7 One.

Speaker 7 Automatic vomit.

Speaker 15 How many innings do you think you get into?

Speaker 41 So essentially, one per inning, one of these per inning.

Speaker 15 How many innings?

Speaker 3 Four. Four?

Speaker 37 Come on.

Speaker 3 You're going four beers, four dogs.

Speaker 27 Dude, beer?

Speaker 41 Beer sits in my stomach. A beer is really heavy for me.
That's why I drink the brown stuff.

Speaker 1 Oh, I got this hair on my chest.

Speaker 34 My man.

Speaker 27 You got hair on that chest?

Speaker 41 No, I got hair on this chest.

Speaker 2 I'll show you later.

Speaker 15 I love the way we improv here, man. It's a Ko Rac.

Speaker 27 Look, it'll work.

Speaker 29 Yeah, that works. It'll work.

Speaker 66 You get four hats on that. Okay.

Speaker 27 Unless you had to spit it.

Speaker 26 Man, I am just searching this for like the smallest nuggets.

Speaker 30 Chris, what you need to do, a little advice, you need to swap, right?

Speaker 49 You need to go one fried nugget, one grilled nugget, one fried nugget, okay?

Speaker 60 Two fried nuggets, one grilled nugget.

Speaker 36 Okay.

Speaker 26 Kristen can vote also.

Speaker 9 No, it's this room. It's right here.

Speaker 50 It's got to be some

Speaker 16 four, six, seven people.

Speaker 49 That's who you're voting on right now.

Speaker 15 Well, no, if we give him a vote, then he's going to vote for himself.

Speaker 48 Well, there's a dog.

Speaker 45 There's dogs in here.

Speaker 38 That's why I said she hasn't voted.

Speaker 15 The dog doesn't have a hat. You got to have a hat.
How else will we know you're impartial? We've got to find someone, a seventh person with a hat. Maybe it's Gino.

Speaker 29 We get Gino.

Speaker 46 You can't trust Gino.

Speaker 29 Sounds like the hamburgler.

Speaker 29 The nugget burglar.

Speaker 38 This is what I want to do.

Speaker 15 We're going to do this secret ballot style, but not one vote. We're going to do multiple rounds of this.

Speaker 15 So I want everybody to write on a piece of paper, not you, Chris, how many constitutes Chris completing the teacher. I should get a vote.

Speaker 50 I'm in this. You don't get a vote.

Speaker 15 You don't get a vote. You're not in the room.

Speaker 35 You want a vote? You take off the hat.

Speaker 27 Take off the hat.

Speaker 41 And will we then average it out?

Speaker 72 Pay someone everyone writes down.

Speaker 49 I like that.

Speaker 26 Jeremy Roy, help me out.

Speaker 15 Let's go. We don't average it out.
We go one round, and then we have a discussion, and then we have another round of votes. Like a committee.
Yes, like a committee.

Speaker 2 Or should it be like whichever number gets the most votes? So, if people duplicate a number, oh, that's tough, that's tough.

Speaker 2 From there, I think the average is probably better.

Speaker 15 I like talking it out and then having a final vote afterwards. So, for now, just give me a number.
Don't confer with one another what number you're gonna put on that. 14.

Speaker 36 What was that?

Speaker 15 So bad.

Speaker 54 Just button.

Speaker 63 You are your father's son.

Speaker 15 Fold it up and bring it home back.

Speaker 37 Nuggets are so big.

Speaker 26 I swear they're messing with me here. They double, double-battered them or something.
Nope.

Speaker 15 Double battered? No, they're not that concerned. Whenever you can see the flesh.

Speaker 9 If I take a...

Speaker 26 Never mind. I was going to say, if I bite it in half, does that count as two?

Speaker 27 No, it counts as half.

Speaker 15 Smoking reduces appetite, right?

Speaker 2 This is going to be 21. Cigarettes?

Speaker 38 Yes. Yeah.

Speaker 15 That's, yeah.

Speaker 22 Black amount cigarettes, anything like that.

Speaker 15 That'll make you eat less, right?

Speaker 63 Well, we were talking about fasting like the trick is to expand your stomach not to contract actively averaging a nugget a minute that's a pretty good

Speaker 15 life that's what i'm saying that immediate that'll fall off a cliff pretty quickly well you just got to stay in that mode he just said he wants to take all of big suey off yeah that that would be a bad strategy if you do that that's horrible strategy i can take a step outside you know do we have those large batteries can someone want me to collect ballots can someone from outside the room come collect the ballots so to ensure the security ernston Young over here.

Speaker 30 We don't want to see it. Case is making me want to change.

Speaker 62 Remember, these are an optional.

Speaker 2 I love how small this is.

Speaker 26 Found a small one? Beautiful.

Speaker 15 Speaking of smoking cigarettes, Tony, you got a top five jobs you can smoke a cigarette at?

Speaker 13 Oh, guys.

Speaker 44 At the Flanagans, it made me think of

Speaker 22 a great pastime of being able to smoke wherever you wanted, right?

Speaker 30 A sig break. A SIG break, right?

Speaker 43 Used to be able to just go light up wherever you wanted.

Speaker 70 Didn't you know?

Speaker 15 It used to be in the break room. You go to like where the coffee and the and the the fridge is and you just light up right there just a haze of smoke

Speaker 15 then they change the rules you got to go outside so it turned right outside the front door of the building and that's where everyone was at and now they got a smoking section further down further away because people were complaining i walked to the door and it's smoking here now it's all the way over there

Speaker 72 You know how most home security systems wait until after something bad happens? Just like a goalie just standing there until the pucks already in the net.

Speaker 1 Stugats.

Speaker 74 Mike, are you doing something like this right now?

Speaker 75 I lost a lot of weight doing intermittent fasting and low carb, so now I'm getting back to it.

Speaker 74 But how much in that six to eight hour window, how much can you eat?

Speaker 26 Unlimited? I could just eat unlimited.

Speaker 42 I'd do that.

Speaker 31 That'd be fun.

Speaker 15 For six to eight hours.

Speaker 31 You can't eat unlimited. Try me.

Speaker 20 No, no, I mean

Speaker 69 this is the Don Lebatar show with the Stugats.

Speaker 15 No, he doesn't. They don't.
They got a great job.

Speaker 27 You just put the window down, light up, and you're just screwed, baby. In the cab.

Speaker 15 That's not a cigarette break.

Speaker 32 Got to put it on the window. Because he's working.

Speaker 15 That's happening.

Speaker 27 It's disgusting to eat the bear.

Speaker 39 It's not happening.

Speaker 24 It's made with love. They step outside.

Speaker 26 They step right outside the door. I've worked at these restaurants, guys.
The back door, it's always kind of, it stays open, but it has one of those, like,

Speaker 47 what's the thing? You know, a door?

Speaker 26 A door?

Speaker 36 A door.

Speaker 27 At the restaurants.

Speaker 3 Like a saloon door?

Speaker 21 No, at the restaurants.

Speaker 24 It's like the plastic that like covers the doorway that they can like.

Speaker 66 Like the sheet, like the sheets of plastic that you can.

Speaker 33 You guys haven't worked at restaurants.

Speaker 50 You guys haven't worked at the door.

Speaker 4 I have a sneaking suspicion.

Speaker 27 Chris is trying to overcome two different obstacles.

Speaker 4 Maybe performance enhancers?

Speaker 21 You guys haven't worked at restaurants.

Speaker 8 You guys haven't worked at restaurants.

Speaker 54 Number three, Tony.

Speaker 3 Shit's kicking in, huh?

Speaker 30 That's why the eyes were watering.

Speaker 50 I had to bore water for him.

Speaker 15 Two's too much, man.

Speaker 31 Number three,

Speaker 44 a security guard.

Speaker 2 At a bar, like a security guard, some sort of like

Speaker 70 doorman, bouncer, just rip a sig no matter what.

Speaker 48 Just be out there.

Speaker 58 What's your ID? Let me see.

Speaker 20 Okay, yeah, you know.

Speaker 15 Yeah, no, I'm with it. I've seen it.

Speaker 70 Little 20 underneath the ID.

Speaker 15 Yeah, you got it. There you go.
You're good.

Speaker 22 What happened at Moe's back in the grove?

Speaker 49 R.I.P. Moe, by the way.
Moose juice.

Speaker 27 It's a different. Oh, good.

Speaker 35 Again, Broward guys.

Speaker 27 Don't get it.

Speaker 28 Lauderdale County, possibly.

Speaker 46 I apologize.

Speaker 15 Number two, Tony.

Speaker 15 Number two. Ray Charles over here.

Speaker 34 Radio producer.

Speaker 20 Oh,

Speaker 26 smoke break with me.

Speaker 58 I got to go out and take a smoke break.

Speaker 60 No, it's not.

Speaker 37 What? Because it couldn't be a bad thing.

Speaker 27 Back in the day, you can't smoke in these studios.

Speaker 43 Back in the day, you could. Do you know how flammable the reels were?

Speaker 27 Back in the days. Back in the day, you couldn't.

Speaker 43 Cooks are not smoking over the food.

Speaker 41 Mike EC produces my campus tour show.

Speaker 8 Does he?

Speaker 56 Let's go.

Speaker 27 That man has a pinching. Tell him we sat down, Jack.

Speaker 33 I will smoke break.

Speaker 4 He loves everybody. Is he still working out?

Speaker 30 He loves everybody.

Speaker 3 He looks good for a while.

Speaker 31 He's back right now.

Speaker 41 I don't know. He's in Bristol.

Speaker 63 I'm where I am. I don't know.
Does he still have that lump on his head?

Speaker 15 I don't know. I didn't see him.

Speaker 41 I haven't asked him about the lump, but he runs the board for me every Saturday morning.

Speaker 15 Tony, the number one job you can smoke a cig.

Speaker 36 Construction worker.

Speaker 27 Oh.

Speaker 70 You're just out there plowing away

Speaker 15 with the jackhammer.

Speaker 48 But you got it outside and it's like also ashing the cigarette as you hit the jackhammer too.

Speaker 38 Question for you.

Speaker 15 Missing from your list.

Speaker 15 Police detective show up on the scene.

Speaker 27 Oh my God.

Speaker 54 I'm not like the third one this week.

Speaker 15 She's going to light it up. You're right.

Speaker 54 I'm still typing up their reports.

Speaker 30 I see this doctor, too.

Speaker 15 Oh, doctor.

Speaker 6 How many times do you see at the hospital you pass by and there's doctor smoking outside?

Speaker 4 That's a break, though.

Speaker 38 Not while they're waiting.

Speaker 15 Doctor used to be smoking in the office. When you sit down, it's like, it's terminal cancer.
Exactly.

Speaker 21 He's smoking right there.

Speaker 27 Why do you not get it? What could it be?

Speaker 39 No clue.

Speaker 70 Above my break, I got to put you on a specialist.

Speaker 15 I got to send you to the specialist. I love it, man.
Nah, man, it is. It's funny.
I don't smoke. I've never smoked.
And yet... There is a nostalgia that I feel about like the haze of the haze of...

Speaker 1 You used to go into a bar.

Speaker 41 Did you feel you were missing out when everyone was like, hey, you want to go get a sig?

Speaker 15 No, well, not really, but it was more so, Zaz. I remember when you go to a bar and you open that door and it was just like a fog.

Speaker 54 And you really couldn't see.

Speaker 15 Are there a lot of people in here? Not so many people. How many girls? How many guys? Like, you couldn't tell because the smoke made everything mysterious.

Speaker 15 And then you got to the bar and then you turned around, like, oh, I didn't know you were there. And you slack up a conversation.
Now, I open the door, boom, I see everything.

Speaker 15 The mystery's been removed.

Speaker 39 I don't know, man.

Speaker 41 I don't remember walking into places and I couldn't see anyone because of the cigarettes.

Speaker 30 You weren't at the right place.

Speaker 15 Come on, man.

Speaker 30 Oh, well, I bartender back in the day.

Speaker 15 Bartender, yeah.

Speaker 15 Love a bartender. What do you want?

Speaker 3 Mm-hmm.

Speaker 26 That never happened.

Speaker 48 Like, a bartender smoking a cigarette?

Speaker 64 They might take a cigarette break.

Speaker 23 They're not at the like.

Speaker 42 What bar are you guys going to where they're like, what can I get you?

Speaker 10 Ash and you drinks.

Speaker 2 How about a guy playing slide guitar for a band at a bar?

Speaker 3 Yep.

Speaker 21 Cover bands.

Speaker 27 Good answer.

Speaker 54 Show me slide guitar player. Thank you.

Speaker 49 Bump, bump, bum.

Speaker 26 By the way, going back to grilled mistake.

Speaker 23 I'm done with these. Grilled?

Speaker 42 Once you get into the fried chicken?

Speaker 44 You can't be done with them, though.

Speaker 30 You need them because there's not enough fried ones.

Speaker 26 I just ate one where I had the feeling of, is this fully cooked?

Speaker 2 Gino's going to have to pay for more nuggets, right?

Speaker 58 Chris is definitely slowing down.

Speaker 55 His posture has changed.

Speaker 30 I don't like that.

Speaker 58 And he's got sunglasses on.

Speaker 15 Guys, I have five votes in front of me, even though there should have been six plus mine. Oh, you didn't give me your vote.

Speaker 27 Oh, yeah. Okay, you want want me to write it down or something?

Speaker 15 Write it down, please. Just say it.
Give me some. No, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 15 We're doing this the right way.

Speaker 15 What are you doing? Just say it, he said. We're going to delay the update on the vote for a second because I do want to talk to Jerry.

Speaker 13 How many Chris's do we need on video, guys? We got it.

Speaker 8 Again, that's the preview.

Speaker 38 Yeah, that's why you got the sunglasses.

Speaker 36 Oh, boy.

Speaker 18 How many MGs?

Speaker 39 Be real. 20.

Speaker 48 You got two of those?

Speaker 36 Wow.

Speaker 30 Fuentes was like, just one. I'm like, get out of here, you child.

Speaker 15 Oh, my God.

Speaker 27 Tony, all-star weekend.

Speaker 15 I'm having flashbacks. So, Jeremy, I want to talk to you about yesterday's Bulls versus Sixers game.
Great game. Came down to the wire.
Nikola Vucevich hits a game winner, right, from the corner. And

Speaker 15 we get this, yeah, Russian. We get the call from Stacey King, who does a great job with Adam Amin on the local call for the Bulls.

Speaker 15 But on on the call, Stacey King to express... Oh, do we have it?

Speaker 27 Oh, yeah, let's hear it.

Speaker 71 I'm sorry, he was doing what?

Speaker 37 That call. Wow, Roy.
That's Stacey King.

Speaker 15 Roy, are you... Wait, hold on, because Jeremy did not get the reference.

Speaker 27 I had a reference.

Speaker 38 But Sanford and Son.

Speaker 29 Yeah, it's just that there's a couple of words missing.

Speaker 30 You think Roy's not going to get a reference? I like that.

Speaker 2 I like that he doesn't get the reference because it's not a perfect reference with every single word.

Speaker 15 You never. I didn't know that reference.
Did you know Sanford and Son existed? Yeah, of course.

Speaker 40 Okay. But I did not.

Speaker 41 Did you watch Sanford and Son?

Speaker 2 No.

Speaker 46 What you know about that red fox?

Speaker 8 So I didn't know the reference.

Speaker 2 And so when I first heard the audio, I realized once he said the cardiac bulls that clearly this was a reference to someone I guess having a heart attack

Speaker 2 but when you first listen to that sound if you are a young person or someone who did not keep up with pop culture in your time you don't know what it is that he's talking about when he's yelling I'm coming Elizabeth

Speaker 39 oh Lord

Speaker 39 that in the club yeah

Speaker 27 I

Speaker 2 was I think there's a risk in making references particularly older references

Speaker 46 to where you can end up sounding like I just did.

Speaker 15 Look, to me, because Stacey King does this a lot. Whenever they have a clutch shot or a big moment, he does do the Red Fox reference.

Speaker 46 He's old enough to know the reference, though.

Speaker 15 I don't expect Stacey King.

Speaker 4 Or he is.

Speaker 23 Stacey can know it.

Speaker 23 He can know the reference.

Speaker 3 That's not the premise.

Speaker 15 Stacy gets a reference.

Speaker 24 What about the audience? What about the people watching?

Speaker 24 That's my concern.

Speaker 2 The young people watching NBA League Pass who are like 22 years old old and are just hearing the announcer yell

Speaker 71 No, no, no, no, no, he's old enough to get it correct, which he did not

Speaker 24 taking this to another

Speaker 50 execution.

Speaker 15 I don't expect Stacey King to get any quote right, man.

Speaker 15 I'm just happy he got it in the general vicinity.

Speaker 3 Now,

Speaker 15 the thing is, Jeremy, because he's been doing it for years, my expectation would be, at least for the local Bulls fan, they know.

Speaker 15 They may not even know what the reference is from, but they know what he's referring to,

Speaker 15 versus like you parachuting in or maybe the internet or whatever. It is a funny quote, though, to say the way he is.
Guys, I'm really concerned about Chris, and I'm not concerned about the nuggets.

Speaker 41 He's in bad shape, man.

Speaker 15 It's not about the nuggets.

Speaker 26 Everyone's an eating expert in here. They're like, stand up.

Speaker 70 I told him he's got to stand up.

Speaker 6 Let the food digest.

Speaker 33 Everyone's like, we got to do this.

Speaker 64 Mike got me warm water. Everyone's an expert.

Speaker 15 All right, here we go, guys. Time to update.

Speaker 15 Vote number one for Chris.

Speaker 15 This is to claim he's completed the challenge. Amount of nuggets.
The challenge is 99 nuggets. Vote number one says 69.

Speaker 15 What are you, butthood? Vote number two.

Speaker 15 It's a sticky note. Hold on.

Speaker 15 60.

Speaker 15 Vote number three.

Speaker 15 Oh, a lot of sticky notes. You guys got excited about it.
What was the note? 51.

Speaker 27 Oh, please. Come on, where's my Jeremy?

Speaker 30 That was it right there.

Speaker 29 Jeremy?

Speaker 39 I needed to.

Speaker 15 And this is an anonymous vote. 99.
The refs cheated in Miami versus SMU. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 38 That was Jeremy.

Speaker 51 I wonder who that was.

Speaker 53 Jeremy Mee.

Speaker 39 UCF.

Speaker 15 98.

Speaker 28 Wow. Jerk.
Zazzle.

Speaker 15 99 problems.

Speaker 15 And then the final one is 60.

Speaker 66 So. All right, so we got two 60s.

Speaker 60 Hold on. What if that's upside down?

Speaker 4 Hold on a second.

Speaker 38 Oh, yeah, that'll be nine.

Speaker 27 Wait,

Speaker 27 but there's no San Diego. No, no, no, no.

Speaker 3 No 60.

Speaker 2 I mean, you said 69, 60, 51, 99, 98, 99, and 60, which is seven votes.

Speaker 15 There are six people here. Well, Gino is a seven.

Speaker 2 Oh, Gino, what?

Speaker 15 Yeah, we put his hat right here.

Speaker 32 That's crazy. Yeah.

Speaker 15 Well, we got to have seven votes, man. It has to be can't have

Speaker 15 an even number.

Speaker 15 You don't know what he voted.

Speaker 46 He might have rolled 51.

Speaker 39 He might have written 24.

Speaker 28 He could have said that refs cheated in Dallas. Yeah.

Speaker 63 It's true. He's been saying it all week.

Speaker 15 I kind of feel like 51 is way too low. Let's average him out.

Speaker 32 Average him out.

Speaker 15 51 is too low. I'm also going to say, look, guys.

Speaker 7 Averaging it out would not go well.

Speaker 45 As much as.

Speaker 15 Because, you know, they do this by the way.

Speaker 2 Yeah. The average is 77.

Speaker 4 It's 76.

Speaker 8 Let's go with 60.

Speaker 71 Yeah, but how do you do it in government? You need a super majority.

Speaker 15 Well, this is how some voting systems work.

Speaker 9 They throw out the low, and they throw out the high, and we take the middles.

Speaker 49 The mode.

Speaker 15 We get the extremists out.

Speaker 15 We get the extremists out.

Speaker 54 I think that would go even worse.

Speaker 26 Whatever percentage the guy from New York got last night, that's the percentage of the 99 nuggets I've eaten.

Speaker 60 I forgot which one the the moat is.

Speaker 15 The moat is the one that appears the most.

Speaker 27 So it's a meaning. So 99 nuggets.

Speaker 46 The mean is the average.

Speaker 54 The median is the one that's right in the middle. Yes, that's right.
Median is the one that's right in the middle of it.

Speaker 38 The media is in the middle of the street.

Speaker 49 Mean El Hassan.

Speaker 15 Yesterday English, today math.

Speaker 47 So for what it's worth, if we're looking for

Speaker 47 a grade, right?

Speaker 2 If we're talking about what would be a passing grade, do we count that as a D or a C?

Speaker 24 Okay, so.

Speaker 2 Because if it's a C and we're going at 70%,

Speaker 2 that's 69 nuggets.

Speaker 53 That's also the median of this group.

Speaker 30 Right.

Speaker 15 The problem, Jeremy, is I went to school at Georgia Tech and we had a class called CS 1501. We called it the Widowmaker.

Speaker 15 And your goal in that class was just to get a D because as I said at Georgia Tech, D is for done.

Speaker 15 So I would be inclined to say

Speaker 15 60% is what we're looking for.

Speaker 27 Super majority.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 2 that's going to be 59 nuggets. Deal.
59.4.

Speaker 33 Well,

Speaker 33 I'm comfortable with that.

Speaker 15 We got to do another round of voting, Chris. We're going to update it later in the show, but we'll do another round of voting.

Speaker 3 It's like Conclave?

Speaker 15 In the meantime, you got to keep eating. You can't stop.
If you stop, you're just going to screw yourself over.

Speaker 26 You think I want to stop?

Speaker 15 Yes, I do.

Speaker 46 I think you want to stop. What kind of question is that?

Speaker 15 I said it breathlessly. You think I want to stop?

Speaker 32 Oh, man.

Speaker 3 So,

Speaker 8 local hour.

Speaker 15 Hockey's backjacked.

Speaker 41 I did not like my wake-up this morning, man.

Speaker 41 This is how, especially recently, you make all the jokes you want about me looking old, all right? I don't care. I think I got a bunch of Benjamin Buttons thing going on, but whatever.

Speaker 41 That's neither here nor there.

Speaker 7 I've noticed recently

Speaker 41 the most clear-cut sign of getting old, I'm fading for these late games. I can't stay up anymore for these games.
Like the Heater on a West Coast trip right now.

Speaker 41 The Panthers are on a West Coast trip right now. I used to just be like, nice, got something cool to watch late nights.
And now it's, yeah, I got no chance staying up for that game.

Speaker 41 I fell asleep last night mid first period of the panther game and so the first thing i did when i woke up this morning i see the score is 7-3 and i'm like damn it i like i hate not being able to see my team play i'm getting old i mean i don't know if you know that i it's hard man i like this wet east coast living i can't do it man i fell asleep last night again trying to watch these games yep i don't know how y'all do it man it's that's why the west coast is the best coast

Speaker 15 everything's done nice and early man you know about that lord's time zone it's right here the lord need to move that's hoarse.

Speaker 5 Now's a good time to remember where Tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila.
Cuervo.

Speaker 71 What are you doing here? Cuervo.

Speaker 11 Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.

Speaker 12 Well, I do know that to be true, but even Durham and reads like Cuervo.

Speaker 14 I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners.

Speaker 15 Sweet, delicious Cuervo.

Speaker 16 Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.

Speaker 17 The same family, the same land, the same passion. Cuervo.

Speaker 6 So, enjoy the tequila that started it all.

Speaker 18 Cuervo.

Speaker 20 Cuervo.

Speaker 5 The tequila that invented tequila.
