You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. Listen closely. That's not just paint rolling on a wall. It's artistry. A master painter carefully applying Benjamin Moore Regal Select Eggshell with deftly executed strokes. The roller, lightly cradled in his hands, applying just the right amount of paint. It's like hearing poetry in motion.

Benjamin Moore, see the love. Now's a good time to remember where Tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented Tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like...

Cuervo. I think you could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion. Cuervo. So enjoy the tequila that started it all. Cuervo.

Cuervo. The tequila that invented tequila. Proximo, cuervo.com, please drink responsibly. Cuervo. This is the Dan Lebator Show with the StuGuts Podcast. This episode of the Dan Lebator Show with Stu Gatz is presented by Smirnoff. We do game days. Please drink responsibly. The Smirnoff Company in New York, New York. I have noticed, as many of you have, that over the last 10 years, whatever the conversation is

about race or whether it's race in sports or race in politics, that it has gotten in some instances unfathomably dumb as when Mina Kimes finds herself in quote unquote controversy talking about Jackie Robinson because of how ridiculous the behavior is around any of these conversations. I'm gonna talk later in the show with Jemele Hill about the general dumbness of everything that happened last week where it's like that is not a smart race conversation.

Stephen A. Smith ending up with wanting to debate Donald Trump on DEI from that as the starting point with saying that RG3 wasn't liked by the people at ESPN and RG3 longing for when games just used to be games in coverage. That controversy is one of the dumbest I've seen in my lifetime as we're supposed to be evolving this conversation. But Stephen A. Smith debating Donald Trump is Super Bowl numbers on television, right? That would be electric It's my worst nightmare. I hate it so much

I mean to president maybe a presidential candidate coming up with Steven a Smith man said it happens again my worst nightmare You guys just want to That's what that the Super Bowl it would be You're telling me there are people at home You know a lot of people like sports a lot of people in this country like sports if you said to this person Stephen a Smith is debating president Trump tonight. They're not watching everyone's watching pay-per-view numbers That'd be massive pay-per-view numbers aren't very good, but the point is it would be

Come back exactly big come back You have to pay in Trump coin. Oh, good God, man. I hate this so damn much. I hate it so much. Like you wanna talk about doing shows, you wanna split off sports and politics during a sports show. Jackie Robinson's entire life was politics.

Like he couldn't play Major League Baseball until 1947 when he was the first person to break the color barrier. Like what are we doing here? Like he had to play Negro League Baseball! Like, I don't know what RG3 is talking about. It just doesn't make any sense to me. It makes me so angry. Can you guys look up for me just the history of the phrase color barrier? Because I want to explore something here that I do not know because I there it's not an actual barrier but when I think of whatever that is meant to represent I think of Jackie Robinson there is there is not another name I think I don't know what a color barrier is if not for Jackie Robinson as

representation I don't know the history of that phrase. I mean, Rosa Parks had a color barrier too. Agreed, but I don't, I'm saying, I don't know what a barrier, where that phrase once started. It's here. It's with Jackie Robinson. Apparently, you know, they called it the color line, but also referred to as the color barrier. And it literally by definition, it says the color line also known as the color barrier in American baseball excluded players of black African descent from Major League Baseball and its affiliated minor leagues until 1947. It's Jackie Robinson who broke it. And that's exactly where the term comes from. So that is the history and that is the fact and we are in the

process of rewriting history through everything from banned books to arguments about censorship. And're just distracting right you need to understand that mean a times is being used there for how she looks and whatever her political ideology is as a tool to then in snare r g three and it's how you do it it's how you win you just put the sides against each other let them devour each other in the stupidity and you run off with all the money and try and make Gaza Gaza a luxury resort strip like what with the richest man in the world in your office like that's how all that happens you have all the money in the world and

you've cheapened every principle there is in America well here's the thing about color barrier because every black person had a color barrier back in 1947 and before that because it was Jim Crow back then it was segregation like you can you can eat at white restaurants or drink water from a white water fountain that's that's how things went back then. I need a sorbet of some sort Jeremy I'm gonna put you in a tough spot here I'm gonna need a transition here of some sort Jeremy. I'm gonna put you in a tough spot here I'm gonna need a transition here that is light and breezy Can you give me something that you came in here after a couple of days off dying to talk about today?

That can transition us from the conversation that makes Royce so angry into something a little lighter What's a perfect conversation transition because it's still baseball oriented Did you guys see what happened with the Orioles double-a affiliate the Chesapeake Bay Sox? because they are Going to have a unique name for select games this season Just like the Pensacola Blue Wahoos became the Pensacola Mullets for select games The Chesapeake oysterster Catchers is the name. And here's the logo of what they used

for the Chesapeake Oyster Catchers. Now, I don't know about you guys, but that oyster also looks like something else to me. I like the logo, what's wrong with it? For the audio audience, it's a baseball glove and the glove caught an oyster. And in the oyster. It's a pearl that looks like Dan Can you find the baseball? Is it inside the vagina? I?

Think you found it what oyster. I thought the transition was gonna be Jeremy singing a song about color barriers No song about color barriers. Oh god, oh lord. No. He seems to have a song for everything. He's an ally though, he could whip one up. Is there not a marketing department here? Is there not a, like how does that? Oh there is and that's why they ended up with that logo. What's the back, what's the story?

What is the backstory, what is now happening around this wonderful logo? What's happening around it is great because they released it. And what's funny is it seems as though they might not have had anyone catch that on the front end. But after they tweeted from their official accounts, some saw an oyster, others saw something unexpected. We see an opportunity to turn viral laughs into positive impact.

In celebration of Women's History Month, 10% of all oyster catchers' merch sales will support I Am Survivor, which is a cervical cancer education center. So it really worked out perfectly. This is why diversity, equity, and inclusion is important. Because in a diverse workplace, someone may have said, hey, this actually looks like a vagina. Yep. important because in a diverse workplace someone may have said hey this actually looks like a vagina yep so when I mentioned that Jeremy yesterday was doing that report on advancing through dancing and the heat by the way have been doing for a while now a celebration of women that if we're gonna make the RG

3 Jackie Robinson conversation about politics this then too would be the heat aggressively being political by simply celebrating women during their broadcast. Yeah. Which is a choice the Heat have have made. That is now a political choice? That's a political choice. I don't know that it's political. I know that they have been doing this for several years now and specifically the advancing through dancing cause is really great because it's a professional leadership workshop for everyone who's a heat dancer

and ultimately at the end of it what they did was they gave out a $10,000 grant to the winner who pitched what her business would be. She runs a nonprofit and ultimately she's going to use that money to help get her pilot's license because it has to do with aviation and being able to spread for a good cause. But it's like, it's, it's inherently criticized. Like if you go to social media and you see any of these posts, particularly with the heat, like even, even the celebrations for women's history month,

all you're going to see is replies of people saying fire Pat Riley. I mean, of course it's political to celebrate women's inclusions in sports. It's political to have women included in the workforce in this country. We still have very backwards laws that don't really let women and especially mothers continue their careers in this country.

We don't have a lot of things that other countries have. It's all political, Dan. Yes. And to bring it back to the Jackie Robinson part of it, right? Like that's why diversity, equity and inclusion is important. Like D.E.I. again, we talked about this a little bit on Friday, but that phrase has been hijacked and turned into just a symbol for everything that the right doesn't like. No different than woke was no different than critical race

theory was and no different than critical race theory was, and no different than Black Lives Matter was. They just keep taking these terms, they turn them into abbreviated terms, BLM, CRT, DEI, so that nobody actually knows what the words are. But diversity, equity, and inclusion are the reasons why you're able to build up a workforce that is able to produce something

that's better than it would have been if it was just a bunch of white dudes. I asked you for a palate cleanser. I tried. I always bring it back there. We ended up in exactly the same place. It wasn't my fault. I'm woke.

It's the same palate. What happened here? I didn't get cleansed. I'm in the same thing. Jamello fixed this. Oh. Okay. Well, I'd love to get all your thoughts on the matter.

On what? Jackie Robinson? I stand with Jackie Both of you The crazy thing about this is like the story was not about the removal of the article, right? It quickly just became a story about Mina During FaceTime on around the horn and that's what the debate became about like the outrage wasn't even about the action It was about the reacting to the action. Which is kind of like.

It was about the usage of her television time. Yeah, it was like, you guys are getting mad about the wrong thing here. Right. So I'll tell you some backstory here. It is dated, but just so that you know the choices that are being made in media at the moment around this kind of stuff, as you have legal rulings

over the weekend where people are afraid of Trump and his money. In this small little stupid playground of sports, a long time ago, me, Mitch Albom, and Mike Lupica wrote these two-minute things. The Sports Reporters. No, no, no. What a show. No, no, no. No, it's not this.

Please. It's not a parting shot on Sports reporters that was one thing that's not what i'm talking about i'm saying weekly on sports center their signature property disney and he has pn proud of this thing that is meant to represent their company as the proudest thing built on sports center in their they would put these two-minute things that we

wrote that were meant to be journalistically sound here's where the opinion is right here on whatever politics or whatever is clinton of the shit stain takes off into the sky uh... on pointing out in sports to people that the size of difference between the liberal media person and the average sports fan is larger

then the size of the average media person in America and the average journalist by leaps and bounds that in sports you will find this anti-black anti-gay anti-women you'll find it more in sports proportionally and other audiences are now feeding on that in communities where they can do this stuff like yell about DEI and then do the gender politics stuff that can allow trans people to be killed at a disproportionate rate and be good with it. We had two minutes on Sports Center and after we did this for about a year and the focus groups came back clearly. We don't want that, we don't like that. I

want when my opinion is also expressed by somebody I want two people talking about that idea not one person telling me what their idea is And so then from there all the things that are more inclusive or birth than Stephen A Smith can become the star He can go and write going left and be just super inclusive Everywhere and become a giant wrestling star that could fight for with the president in debate at the height of the stupidity of the sports debate where we in sports were supposed to be leaders on this stuff and and I'm showing you a place where that stuff was actively said by the consumer. I don't want that and Then the people with the FU money comply because that's what all the corporations are gonna do

that have the F-U money, and now they will bow in front of this money with Musk and Trump because they're scared of the way all of the mess can be wielded. I can't unsee the way all of these corporations after George Floyd said all the right shit, and I can't unsee the way it all went back to being exactly like it was with an even worse backlash

and now making the sports ockerman is not even kaper nick anymore it's this garbage like it's just nonsense were really we're gonna argued whether jackie robinson was historically relevant because of race like we're gonna make it so stupid that you just can have a conversation about it that no one's changing their minds about everything we're just gonna be fighting till the end of time, until we blow each other up. I mean, it's the death of expertise, right?

Like that's kind of what's happened this century, is no one cares to listen to someone who has researched or studied or has become an expert on whatever their topic is. They wanna hear both sides of the conversation. It's why we let Mike Ryan talk about the heat when I'm talking about the heat, because people wanna hear the uneducated side when there's an expert right here

who can tell you everything that's happening, factually. I thought we were cleansing the palate here. Well, to be fair, we were cleansing the palate with the cute little oyster glove, and then Dan was like, what about the Heat's Women in Sports Day? Yeah, I tried to make a joke about finding the baseball. You get it, Dan, because of the spot that it is in the oyster. You get it?

No, Jeremy, the I can't see it either. The humor is so highbrow. It was lost on you. Yeah. Howdy, everybody. It's Mike Ryan. Have you heard of Goldbelly?

You want a behind the scenes story, Dan?

Yes. So, we're doing this March Sadness tournament that's going on and the fans love it. So, we're doing March Sadness and one of the video submissions was a new character, but the file got corrupted before this person could make it into March Sadness. So I don't know if you're aware, but we have this character as Azza called Misogynistic Bane, who makes appearances from time to time.

And we had a fan who created a character that was feminist Darth Vader. And it was an incredible character where Darth Vader would come out and be praising Caitlin Clark. And then when we tried to submit it and put it into the system the file got corrupted and then it couldn't be tracked down So if you're out there Feminist Darth Vader feel free to reach out and send us more videos or if there's a lot of fake

Feminist Darth Vader's out there who now want to run with this idea I have no way of knowing which one the real one of you was so feel free to send in all of your feminist Darth Vader videos and we'll be sure to try to include them in the show moving forward. I don't know what the reaction is and I don't want to know what the reaction is. Can we just give a brief update on some of the advances? Can we just play some of the advances? And I'd like to start a different tournament right now just to make this a little messier. Well, so this is what we can do.

So we've been putting out some of the competitions against each other. And we have two of the competitions that were going against each other, two of the games that fans could vote on to see which fan moves on to the next round. So the first round, it was tell us why you should watch a game round, it was tell us why

you should watch a game with Dan or tell us why you're the biggest fan of the show. There was some confusion there. Then the next one was tell us some of your favorite show moments. And then the fans go on and they vote for who it is that they want to advance. So here are two of the matchups that we have.

We're down to our sweet 16 now. Things are getting serious. This Thursday and Friday, we're gonna have our Sweet 16 matchups. And then Saturday and Sunday is our Elite 8. Things are winding down very quickly here. And one of the things that we found in the past when we would have Looks Like,

which fans didn't really like that tournament, but when we had the Looks Like tournament, or we'd have some of the other tournaments, it would be the same thing over and over again. So there was a fatigue and you kind of knew the number one seed, you know exactly what you're gonna get every time it gets played, it's the same thing. In this tournament, they're submitting new videos with new prompts every single round, so you could very easily have an off-round and the number one seed gets bounced. In fact, I

don't want to spoil anything for those of you who are catching up on March Sadness on Twitter or or whatever who are going back And watching them and following along not in real time. We all know Wednesday is spoiler Wednesday on Wednesday's as oh, you don't know this Unfortunately won't be here this Wednesday Wednesday spoiler Wednesday. That's the day we can talk about the Sunday shows So I'm not gonna spoil what happened to Mars It's a wild Billy Wednesday, which is strange to me that we're putting some rules in Wild Billy Wednesday. Spoiler Wednesday.

Well, the wild thing is we come and we spoil shows. But they've had four days to watch the show at that point in time. The point being, some of the heavyweights that we thought were going to go far in the first round had a dud of a second round and have been bounced. And I need to check my scorecard. I believe there's only one number one seed left

in this tournament at this point in time. Well, let's just get me updated here. All right, so here's two of our matchups. Here we're gonna head over to region four for one of our matchups. Who the hell is Tony spittin' facts that we cannot look at yet? Mike Ryan don't know where he's at.

Don't look, don't look now. Oh no, he's broken now. Drippin' on the couch, ouch. Falling to the board for Steve Corn hack. Don't look, don't look now. A man has lost control. Don't look now. And as he can't stop looking for sugar daddy-o.

Don't look, don't look now. That was amazing. My favorite moment was the arrival of Pee-Poo Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, so crooked I feel like your next career stop will be the mayor of Miami. I mean your last article that got clicks came from stabbing your best friend in the back. Cody, pay your bets. You're no journalist. You're a con artist. E2Sabe. Whoa. Well I have a I have a conundrum that I found myself in. Was the first one Jeremy? The first one actually did a Jeremy cover on the first round and he did the Pink Pony Club and he was dressed as a unicorn and he won in advance and this round spoiler alert Brad the Bard was eliminated Brandon threatening Cody has moved on now here's kind of something that we might have been worried about and if I'm gonna be truthful in our selection committee which is which is me and Coogler, we went through the videos and there were certain people that we said, there might be a red flag here.

Like this might be, this might potentially be something that Frankie's gonna have to intervene on. Frankie's our security guard, as everybody knows. So here's the thing, Brandon now has advanced in Brad the Bard, and Brandon apparently made some sort of bet with Greg Cody in Las Vegas when we were there at the Super Bowl. And his first video, he was saying he's trying,

he's found a workaround where if he wins his tournament, he comes down to Miami and he intends to collect on this bet with Greg Cody. And truth be told, I think it was a 16 seed, so I thought Brandon's not gonna move on, like it's fine. And then Brandon moved on and upset a number one seed. And now Brandon, as a 16 seed, has now eliminated a number eight seed.

And apparently these threats to Greg Cody are a thread that are going to continue throughout these rounds. So I'm now starting to wonder what this bet was because I have absolutely no frame of reference why it is that he keeps lightly threatening Greg Cody. And if we will be responsible if he actually wins and comes through to deliver on said threat of making Greg pay off this bet.

So no one's asked Greg what the bet is? No, and he's on a cruise now. So I mean, we may find a situation where he's in the final four and we don't know if we're gonna be flying a crazy person down to maybe beat up Greg. And I know you would hate that, Zaslow. Well, listen, this is not something

I actively think about, all right? You guys like to think that I'm sitting around, you know, twiddling my fingers and coming up with a plan to take down Greg Cody. I don't think about Greg Cody I don't have to tell you well We will worry about Brandon and his threatening of Greg Cody if we need to next round of the round after that What about Dan though Dan's got to watch the game with these yeah? It's safe the first round will be safe the first and he doesn't have a bone to pick with Dan

It's really Greg he has a problem, but so we're fine We're fine if you want we can preview another matchup of region four. Now this is one of those situations where number five Alvaro was very strong in the first round and I thought Alvaro might go on a deep run and then Brandon number 13 who in the first round told us about his dead dad. Round two told us about his potentially dead dog And he may have sprung an upset here. Here's the matchup. Take 19. Favorite show moment. Wow. So many issues from like the old saying goes,

En la mañana se come arroz porque la escoba tiene miedo. Which of course we all know means that time that Greg Cody revealed dance engagement. That was crazy. Oh, how about that other time when Estugos pensó que Jonathan Kochman era blanco. O cuando viéramos se comió la cebolla. Which of course we all know means hamburger with cheese. How about that other time when Stugots thought that Jonathan Kochman was white or when we went to eat the onion which of course we all know means hamburger with cheese and tonight we are all butter Oh and Kevin Durant has no rings Oh and Leventhal Durant

but not the Roberto Durant interview Night night Hey everyone, my favorite moment is when Dan told a story about his dead dog He was shirtless, sobbing at a stoplight, holding his dead dog in his arms. A fan pulled up next to Dan at a stoplight, again, as Dan sobbing, holding his dead dog in his arms, and said, Dan, lepetard? As a dog lover of my own, I could never imagine something like that happening to me and my sweet boy.

If you want to avoid more dead dogs, just vote for me. So, universal applause for the tournament, right? Oh, the fans love this tournament. Am I the only one that wants to see what the other 18 takes were from Alvaro? Uh, yes. You would have liked his first round submission I think. It was poetry. Tell me whether I should and we will continue with that tournament as well, but tell me whether you guys would like to partake in this as a tournament. Can we just put together please? I'm just going to say an assortment of iconic sounds, just iconic sounds.

So if I'm going to go, I'll go 16 through one here and just tell me if this is a tournament that you would like to do, yes or no, we'll do it as quickly as we can. Number 16. (*chimes ring*) Is that an iconic sound? Yeah.

That is the intro to Back to the Future. Yes. Okay, I'm sorry. How does that not put a smile on your face when you hear that? It was a 16, yeah. but I just didn't know that that was an iconic sound number. Give me a 15 And a 16 right that's that's stronger 15 is an embarrassment for that by the way, that's like a 4 3 2 They lost their conference tournament all right hold on just a second hold on to this tournament because I want to think about this for a second I want to give some

consideration to whether or not this is something I want to do going forward because we can it be pretty easy for us to come up with 68 great sound well we have to decide pretty soon because the real tournaments halfway over well I want to throw this tournament at that tournament in the event that we don't want anything to be too perfect to universally applauded by the fan base. Well, good news. We have a tournament that is not. Okay. Well, I'm glad that you just told me that. I lied. They hate this tournament. Billy, why? I wanted to make you feel better about it. No, I know. I know that Billy, you think that I don't know that they would hate this tournament? I don't know. Okay, I appreciate you saying that.

I'm worried about your feelings. I don't want you to feel, you know, so if I have to come out here and fib a little bit and tell you, yeah, it's universally approved, that's what I'll tell you. I'm not mad at the lie. I am mad that I know that the fans aren't going to like us outsourcing our work to other fans to try to do our work.

I have a spoiler alert for them. Give us a prize, watch the game with Dan. Well, look, at some point if we tell the story of how this happened, that was not supposed to be the prize. That's a whole nother thing. But I don't know if they're aware of this, the Looks Like Tournament was completely outsourced to the fans.

They came up with all of those. We weren't writing those. It was always outsourced to the fans. They came up with all of those. We weren't writing those. It was always outsourced to the fans. And if they think that watching hundreds of terrible videos is a lot easier than just reading Jim Laranaga looks like he works at IHOP, that's not exactly how it works. Well, but see, this is one of the wonderful criticisms that can come your way when you don't or we don't do something well.

Yes, there is great frustration, great frustration in working your hardest to do something less good than something that was easier. Yes, that's correct. There's great frustration in that. Yeah, that's not a great situation to have, to work a lot harder on something that becomes less good Going back to the other tournament. I thought that that back to the future sound was the beginning of Springfield's favorite color That was what I thought it sounded like so it wasn't it wasn't as iconic a sound as I thought it was It's why 16. All right. Let me go. Give me 14 Give me what would be a 14 in an iconic tournament sounds. ["The Four Seasons"] That's real low.

Yeah, that's low. You've got a real big impression of yourself when that's the introduction you want to make. Bombastic. Just for all time, I want everyone to know when 20th Century Fox is walking into the room. Number 13. EA Sports. It sports in the game

criminally wow that's a good one good tournament good Lord saying that it's too low but every sound we hear they're all amazing give me a 12 give me an 11 that's too high that's too high. That's too high? Yeah. All the ones we've heard already are better than that. What was that? That was Super Mario Brothers when you get the extra life. 1960, what was that?

Oh, for crying out loud, man. Make us look old. Just make us look old, Tony. You are. All right, I can go. That was a great retort. 10. Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo What's that from? That was better than EA Sports?

Okay, guy. I got moved by the end of that. Where? Yeah, there. There. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOO there what do you think happened in the game? Somebody scored scorelessless. Scoreless. Scoreless game. Went to penalty kicks. Number nine. I mean, everybody knows that's a one seed.

Come on. I don't know what that is. What? It's the Pornhub intro. What? That's a number one overall. That's a number one overall. I hear Ethan Badoski screaming through the walls that are soundproof.

I hear him shouting that's a number one. He knows all about that point of intro, I guess. Not in the state of Florida anymore though. No, he's got an ID. They're workarounds. Number eight. That is from the Price is Right apparently. That's terrible. We should have reversed the order of this.

We're doing it on the fly. Number seven. That's good. You know you're about to watch something good when you hear that. Yeah, that's worthy of a seat. The last couple actually. Number six. What is that? That's the Wilheim scream. That's a very famous scream that you hear in the movies. It's not very famous if that you hear in the movies. It's not very famous if you have to tell us what it is though. Who's Wilheim?

Apparently, he's the guy that screamed Wilheim. Very famous, don't know what it is. Can you play that again, please? It's strange to me that I don't know what these iconic sounds are. I don't know. Ah! It sounds like Zazz a little bit. Is Wilheim two names?

No, it's his last name. Oh. Ah! I don't know what that is. Number five. ["The Star-Spangled Banner"] Number four. Of course.

Classic. Number three. Billy, what do you make of it? Man, it's more of a song. It's a little long. That's what I'm saying. I feel like that's a song. Yeah, these are different categories. Sound effects and songs are different. It's the intro to a very famous HBO. A song, yeah.

A song. I mean, so is the song from Back to the Future. No, that's... Like the Titanic song, is that a sound or a song? My Heart Will Go On, that's a song. No, that's a legitimate song. Number two. ["The Star-Spangled Banner"]

Man, I feel once we get to number two and stuff that those, there are some other questionable ones in here. In number 16, I think we could come up with a bunch of one seeds here. Number one. So Billy, what are you refuting? You're saying the curb your enthusiasm has to go because it's a song and too long. Andres Cantor has to go because the gold call is too long. I don't even know who Wilhelm is If the goals sound is gonna be there. We need a double bang in the one spot. I think yeah, all right

I'm gonna continue with this tournament. We will see what we put together and just throw at you What about that lady from the local news when she fell? doing the grapes lady from the local news when she fell doing the grapes and she goes, ow, ow, ow, ow. I think that might have been like one of the first things that we played again and again as a show 17 years ago whenever it happened on live television. I think like the next day and it feels like something that feels to me when you tell that story and we'll play this sound for those of you haven't heard it because I think of it as almost one of the first sounds we ever played that sort of spread

and I guess it wasn't pre social media but it feels like it was about, it feels like it was really early in our show's history where a woman is crushing grapes with her feet on national television and she falls out of the grape bucket and when she falls something really hurts. This is a woman, listen to the sound she makes when she hits the floor. She falls off a platform, she's like crushing grapes with her feet, but she slips, falls

right on her face and this is what it sounds like. Tours and tastings, vineyard tours, seminars, arts and crafts. It's a lot of fun, a whole day. Stop! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! seminars arts and crafts it's a lot of fun a whole day stop oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh No, I think she's actually hurt my hair somebody give me a brush. Oh dear I Had the wind knocked out of me when I was young and no one had explained me what that is and that is terrifying if it has not been explained to you trying to grab your breath when you

When you've fallen out of a swing and fallen on your back and you don't know what it is to lose your breath. Dan, by the way, I was at my nephew's flag football game the other day and I was reminded of you because I was looking at the coach on the other side and I was like, oh, he doesn't know what he's doing. And then it made me think of you as the coach of the little league team.

And I'm like, oh, I get it now. Dan had no idea. The problem is the coach couldn't stop the double reverse. So the kid would throw it one way and then the other way they're five years old either could Miami this year to be fair also true but then I would think of Dan like what was it you had the one play and then all of a sudden when they stop that one play like it was over to be clear the story that Tony is telling and he just decided to look me dead in the eye and say hey Dan I saw someone who didn't know what they were doing and it made me think of you. He was saying

that sincerely and I know exactly what he was talking about. When I was 15 years old I was coaching an undefeated football team that was the only team in the league that had a quarterback who could throw and a receiver who could catch and we rode it to great glory until a coach stifled me in the championship game because his team had gotten a lot better and I just had that one play. I didn't really, because I was 15 and I didn't know what I was doing. I was a very bad coach. So I'm glad Tony that the story that made you think of just total incompetence is

watching somebody that didn't know what they were doing. Couldn't stop the double reverse. I mean, you mean you know the kids gonna throw it back to the other kid and go the other way that's Zadzlo there's a number of different things that I want to throw in front of the shipping container about you that I think are strange okay shipping container is it or is it not strange to travel with a soap dish? What? What? A soap dish.

A soap dish. Like a soap ashtray? Is it not a, no, like in the shower? Yeah, like where you put, like it looks like an ashtray, you put the soap in it, right? And it's got a cover. Is it or? Or a dish.

Is it or is it not? Oh, a travel. Well, it sounds like a travel case. That's different than a soap dish. If he wants is it not? Oh, a travel. Well, it sounds like a travel case. That's different than a soap dish. If he wants to travel with a bar of soap, what is he gonna do, put it in a bag? Yes, I do. Plastic bag.

Zephyr Hills, man? Irish Springs? I don't care about the water. Zephyr Hills is water. Weird or not weird, soap dish. No, that's not weird. Thank you, I like cleaning my body. Hotel gives you free ones, though, you know, free soap.

Wait, what? Of course this is weird, Roy. Why would this not be weird? It's a travel case for the soap that you want to use. No, but the dish, like a ceramic dish? I have my bar of soap that I like using. I can't necessarily trust that the hotel has a bar of soap that is good for my skin. But let's clarify. so this is not you bringing a little ceramic dish to put soap on.

This is you having a travel case that's plastic that you can kind of snap it open and close with your own soap. Okay, that's not weird at all. That's a little more normal. Yeah. Dan, not weird. Set up wasn't great there, Dan.

Bar of soap is weird. That's not a soap dish, also. Normal. You made it seem like a ceramic. That's not a soap dish also normal When I was in the shower with Zazz I saw a soap dish and You guys can call it whatever you want. He can hide with whatever his chains are here He can say I have a carrying case and then all of a sudden be met with your judgments and start changing what it looked Like that looked like a ceramic dish to me, but I was clean was it ceramic or not you were
