This is the Dan Lebatard Show with the StuGuts Podcast. This episode of the Dan Lebatard Show with StuGuts is presented by Venmo. Ron McGill is supposed to be here shortly. We've got some funny video and audio, MAVS related to play for you,

but it doesn't happen very often where we go to break and Stugatz is mother bleeping himself because of a missed opportunity. So I will say it again, Walter Payton played the entirety of his career wearing no socks, barefooted inside of the cleats because he liked how it felt to run that way. Feetness.

It's right there for me. It was it was right there for you. Let's get to that Mav sound and let's get to Mike Ryan getting to take a victory lap on Terry Rozier. Can we set up please the victory lap for Mike Ryan so to take a victory lap on Terry Rozier. Can we set up please the victory lap for Mike Ryan so that he can take it in the other room and celebrate what is one of the most unpopular players in Heat history? And this is as right as Mike Ryan has ever been

about anything because is this the sound, we've been looking for the sound. Is this the sound from his first, the news, you learning the news for the first time or is this you circling back around with your general hatred for Rozier? This is when the rumors were circulating that Terry Rozier was a possibility for the Miami Heat,

something that sent a chill down my spine. But keep in mind, we had Kyle Lowry on our roster at that moment in time too. So I was put in a very difficult position. I am told that Genesis right now is working on people in the victory lap room. I think you should go anyway and go ahead and see what you do about a victory lap in there. Get him a microphone, set up that room around Genesis who's working on people and in the interim let's go back in time so

that people understand Terry Rozier is an inefficient player. The only time I've seen Terry Rozier be good is in Charlotte and he wasn't because Charlotte wasn't any good and he just got a giant usage rate and there are a lot of NBA players who could put up those numbers with that usage rate. So the time you saw him be good, he wasn't good. That's correct.

Okay, that's right. I just wanted to clear that up. That's right because I will say this flatly, nobody except Jamal Mashburn has ever been good in a Charlotte uniform. Now you're gonna come back with Alonzo Mourning and maybe Anthony Mason, but I'm just gonna stick to my gut. Good.

It's, and I know, I know Lamello is good, but he's not good because he plays for them and they're not good. And that franchise has a history of irrelevancy that is staggering to have near the father of Marcus Jordan. Speaking of which, I'm going to get to this sound from the police because it felt like Stugatz

being arrested if he were Michael Jordan's son. It's some of the stuff Stugatz would do if he was either coked out or drunk's some of the stuff Stugots would do if he was either coked out or drunk and talking to a police officer trying to get out of an arrest. Who told you Walter Payton didn't wear socks? Because I'm seeing lots of pictures of him

playing football wearing socks. Okay, I will tell you that later in the show. Remind me. Oh, is this attached to the racism? Yeah, remind me about that too so my is a lot of the end socks remind me because uh... they're tied together in a in a way that is uh... interesting uh... yes in that in a way that you will not think so uh... yes but i don't want to

spoil any of the information that i'm going to give you later in the show but i am promising that before the end of the show today, I will tell you the story of me being racist in New Orleans. Can you play the sound, please? And the socks. And that as well. Can you play the sound of Marcus Jordan? And I don't know, like I think it's probably reckless to suggest that anyone has a cocaine problem. But if I were looking for identifying marks, being caught doing cocaine in public by a pool,

there's video evidence of that. I don't know how hard it is to be Michael Jordan's son. I imagine in some ways it's easy, and in some ways it is very hard. It's super unusual to be in a position where you end up dating your father's ex-teammate's ex-wife, which is what he was famously doing with Larsa Pippen. They have broken up.

Yeah, they broke up. She's not in this video, but yes, they did date. But this is Marcus Jordan doing, I think, what Stugatz would do if he was arrested with cocaine and was Michael Jordan's son. Bro, I'm Marcus Jordan. I'm Michael Jordan's son. Hmm. Bro, I'm Marcus Jordan. I'm Michael Jordan's son. I'm not doing anything wrong.

I'm just trying to get home and I made a wrong turn. Okay. And clearly we would just like to get our car off of the f***ing train tracks. It's true. Which we were not trying to be on. But that's why I had to get you out of the car, okay train tracks. It's true. I'm being confirmed. But that's why I had to get you out of the car. Because I hear spinning tires.

I hear slurred speech from you. I'm not slurring anything. I'm letting you know. I have concerns. I appreciate that. I can't let you back behind the car. I appreciate your concerns. But I am not inebriated. I can't let you back behind the car and drive a vehicle. I appreciate your concern. Yeah, I don't want to.

But I am not inebriated. I'm not anything that cannot drive home. 904640. The thing is, I'm not familiar with this area. I made a right. I thought I was making a right onto the highway. I made a right onto the train track. What did you turn that man?

I wish I could tell you but... I think at some point in there he also said that the car was worth $300,000 right? I think that we cut that out. Somebody told me that I had not heard the sound myself. So somebody check on that to make sure that I don't have that wrong because that's not something I've confirmed. I'm just speaking here live and unedited, and I haven't checked that I gotta be honest He didn't drop the MJ name enough. I mean my every answer to every question would have been Michael I'm Michael son. Yeah, I'm MJ son. Yeah. Yeah, I'm number 23 son. Yeah, have you heard? Yeah, I'm number 23 son. Yeah, have you heard right whose son I am?

Where'd you turn well, I'm Air Jordan son yeah, was that Jordan Street Plus you gotta have a photo of dad in your wallet. Yeah, yeah you you have this thing with photos in your wall I know everybody should have photos and that's not something people do He made fun of me the other day cuz I have my like all my money's attached to my phone And he's just like Laughing at me. It's like you should have a trifold and he pulls out this like thick wallet right trifles He's got a wallet attached to his phone this guy Unbelievable, that's not a wall. It's not a wall. It's not What's next? Phone it that's right Freddy's on it, but in this case the picture picture would have been proof. So Greg is right. Right. Right. Oh, you don't believe me? That's not really

proof because I can have that in my wallet. No, no, no, no. It's a picture of Marcus and dad with their arms around each other's shoulders, ducking it up, you know, a jovial photo. Singing songs together, perhaps caroling. The two of them. Perhaps, yeah. Perhaps caroling. Yeah, the two of them, because they're close, they're tight. Yeah. He's not just dropping a name, it's dad.

Yeah. Let me ask a couple of questions here. Are you of the opinion, are you of the belief that most people are still using wallets? Because I will tell you, every time I pull out my wallet They make fun of me here for having a wallet, right? Yeah, I'm sitting on my wallet right now I understand that you're a feel your ass and the wallets also back problems. Yeah, well, you know, it's normal I put it on the money more problems at LeBataard show

Do you own a wallet at Lebatard Show? When he talks about a bad back, Chris, do you realize, I don't know when else your father is doing this, but your father today, in the other room, made the old man sound that I believe is unique to old men getting up from and sitting down on the couch. It's the same sound I imagine he makes at a urinal.

I imagine when everything releases, it is just an old man sound, and I think it's the exclusive domain of people over 50 with a bad back who sit on their wallets. Now what I think of when you think, when I think of my dad making the sound you just described, he says a sentence that can come off as sexual, so I'm a little uncomfortable delivering it,

but this is how I picture my dad getting up from a couch. Oh, that's the one. He's a big that's the one kind of guy. Why is that sexual? I'm just saying the way you, that's the one. Yeah, of course I do. But like you'll say for any, getting up, getting out of the car, that's the one kind of guy. Why is that sexual? I'm just saying the way you, that's the one. Yeah, of course I do. But like you'll say for anything, getting up, getting out of the car, that's the one.

Well, it's a sense of accomplishment. When you either sit down or get up, you feel like you've done something. Put it on the poll, I love the Targe Show. Put it on the poll, are you in such bad shape that it's a sense of accomplishment when you sit down or get up from something people ask me do you exercise? I'm like, yes, I get up and down probably 20 times a day

I want to address Tony and all men who would wear that shirt in public. Stugats. Don't do it. This is the Don LeBathardt Show with the Stugats. A lot of people were making fun, Stugats, of the wired for sound of LeBron last night with Luca, telling him stop trying to fit in, fit out.

Right. Fit out. Well, and Kevin Love, or the guy who memes for Kevin Love, because Pablo Torre alleges that Kevin Love has a guy, had a funny meme of like someone punching the air frustrated because he once told Kevin Love to fit in, and Kevin Love was just dying to hear fit out. I just think that LeBron doesn't have to tell Luca

to fit in or fit out, just just think that LeBron doesn't have to tell Luca to fit in or fit out. Just be fit is all it is that he needs Luca to do. But I'm told that Mike Ryan is now in the other room. Before we go to Mike Ryan to take his victory lap, can you just play the sound, Chris, the Terry Rozier sound? As soon as this happened or right before it happened, Mike Ryan's been telling you for a really long time he did not want Terry Rozier on this team and this is before Terry Rozier was acquired, Mike Ryan threatened the Miami Heat organization. I do not like Terry Rozier. If the trade is Kyle Lowry for Terry Rozier, what the Miami Heat are doing is moving my least favorite player of all time for my second least favorite

player of all time. I am public in my desire to not ever have Terry Rozier on this team. Thank you. Jeremy seemed very excited about this move and Mike seemed very not excited about this room. So there's like a wide raging spectrum of how to break down this, this trade. Am I allowed to give my opinion or am I a homer? You're a homer and Mike, it is your turn now to do this victory lab. Genesis is very hard at work. Who is she working on right now? She's got Lewis right now. It's a bit of a hazard to try to pull off this bit because I'm like this close to stepping on his ear. But maybe I step on his back and actually help the process. But yeah, Terry Rosezier stinks. But the thing is, he always has.

And I had the foresight to just read box scores and tell you that he's a very inefficient player and the Miami Heat did not have this magic wand that they could just keep replicating this. Even Deion Waiters, we talked ourselves into him. He was a fitter Deion Waiters. He is a bad basketball player, presently being investigated for throwing

a basketball game, or at least affecting his own props. I'm being told that he's a very bad basketball player, somehow even worse, but I am still effectively boycotting this team after that acquisition. I couldn't be happier knowing that this team is exactly what I thought it would be, and knowing that I don't have to waste any of my precious time watching it. Back to you, Dan. Okay, thank you, but keep doing that because I'd like to go back to you

to more analysis when you're more winded because I think this is funnier if, yes, I do love that. Go back in 30 seconds. You're so obsessed. Yeah, well that's the joke. Otherwise it's less funny as an audio experience, executive producer of this show,

as an audio experience, a winded cast member trying to give points that are less good than they would normally be because it's hard to give takes when you're tired. You better laugh when we finally nail that. Fatigue makes cowers of us all. And I will say that as soon as it becomes funny, I'll tell you, I'll let you know.

But no one's done it right since we started it. Like it's not that hard you have to Be tired and winded in order for it to work, so it's not that the bit isn't working. It said no one's done it, right That's correct. That is absolutely right. I do like our commitment to getting it's not the system. It's the players right right It's not danceful. That's correct. I'm my system. I didn't create the system Let's go back out to Mike Ryan to hear how much more he hates Terry Rozier. You know, I take a victory lap on never liking this bit. I never thought it would be funny.

And yet the person that is still resolute is the person that is the one that's sending people into this, but I can say wholeheartedly, this bit doesn't work out at all. And I'm taking a victory lap, a winded one, a hilly winded, to really hammer home the fact that I never thought this was gonna be funny, and somehow I'm more right about this than I was on Terry Rose here.

Oh God, I'm so tired. Alright, let's get to this man's round. Better? Yes, better, thank you. That works better. Stay there though and keep running and I'll come back to you in a second. In the interim, let's get to this Mav sound here. First, let's get to the chanting involved

because this is not a chant I have heard very often where there are death threats, where it is that you've got a home security detail that is now required to God's because of everything that's happening in Dallas where the curse of Luka has officially taken over because now multiple players are getting hurt. They've lost almost their entire front line except for Lively. Anthony Davis comes out, gives you a first half of 30 points 9 for 13 and immediately gets hurt and It ends up being out for a week. So let's play the sound that we have of the Mavs fans who are

Protesting they are they are chanting a chant that I am not used to hearing near death threats. Let's hear that. Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring? Luca. I'm Chris. Bring him back. He's not fat. He's not fat. Great chant. It does rhyme. Bring him back. That's right. And there are dozens of people holding up signs.

And who's that guy on the right? What's he dressed as? What is he going for? No idea. Yeah, are those goggles that he is wearing? Is he dressed like a rooster? I think he's a chicken. Is he a chicken? Is it because the maps are chicken for trading Luca?

I mean, I don't know. I'm saying it like I know, but I don't know. It stands to reason. Let's read the signs here. Judas Benedict Brutus Nico. Lines have been crossed. That's my favorite. Oh boy. It's mysteriously vague. I love it. Freeze that so that I can please read some more of those signs. Fire Nico,

that's an obvious one. That's an easy one to write in your magic marker. Dirk handed Luca the torch, Nico blew it out. Let's go back to a sweaty Mike Ryan to check in and hear from Mike Ryan on how right he was about Terry Rossi. So I, so miscalculation on my part. I've recently lost some weight, so I haven't needed the nipple stickers as much,

but I'm wearing a hockey jersey, and it is really chafing up my nipples right now. I've got these Swedish crowns on each one of them and it's not a nice sight but I will take another victory lap though. I was told that I don't know ball because I said Anthony Davis is always injured and everybody that has been watching the NBA since the Miami Heat acquired Terry Rose here told me he's actually pretty healthy that's a bygone era. That's an old take. So you got it. We were right. Anthony Davis. He can't say healthy. They traded Luka Donchich because they were worried about his fitness and traded

for Anthony Davis in return. We were right about that, bud. Yeah, I was right about that. I don't want to take a victory lap though because I can't. Because a bit doesn't work. The bit doesn't work. All I have is chafed nipples, which I will not show on air. Is that Tony on the left? That is not Tony. It looks like Tony though.

It's a good call by you. Yeah, thank you. So after the fans outside chanting, he's not fat, he's fat, bring him back, whatever that thing they were chanting. Not that. That's not what they would. So now we are in the arena arena and this fan gets kicked out.

First what he has is a sign, it's this harmless, fire Nico. I mean, are you not allowed to do that? And then they're having a dance cam later in the game and the same fan, this is a rookie move by whoever's producing this because the guy with the sign, they show him later on the dance cam and he mouths, fire Nico and that was the last straw.

And then you cut to, moments later, him getting walked out while getting booed by the crowd. It was just not a great look for the Mavericks ownership. Do you guys realize that so much happened over the weekend in sports that we glossed over without even thinking about it? The fact that, and this doesn't happen a lot in the NBA, John Morant's dad got kicked out of a game,

got kicked out of a game for complaining about the officiating and doing so, I'm gonna say benignly, even though he was claiming that the game was fixed. Like, I guess that's not benign when you've got the father of NBA royalty saying it about your officiating? But fire Nico is, right? Like those fans do not deserve to be thrown out of a game for being fans. They're not happy with the move that Nico made. They took a 25-year-old generational talent

who took them to the finals a year ago and they traded them to the LA Lakers. Why would fans be okay with that when you factor in that Anthony Davis gave you the full Anthony Davis experience? Best player in the world for a half and he gets hurt walking and he's out for eight weeks. I mean that is Anthony Davis in a nutshell and why can't fans walk in to their place of work where they're paying their good hard-earned money and say, hey, I want to fire the GM without getting thrown out by the organization. Terrible job by the Mavericks. Terrible. He ain't wrong. I mean, you spend money for a ticket, you should be able to express yourself. Right?

Fire Nico is benign. Well, it's not exactly benign. But Greg, so wasn't there a part of the story where Mark Cuban is cursing back at those fans, telling him to sit the bleep down? Like, what are the Mavericks doing? What are they doing to their fans who care so much that they would bring a lame, ridiculous sign into the arena to say, fire the GM? Those are fans that care. Those are fans that you want to be your fans. Yeah. I particularly enjoy the chant They'll bring him back as if there's any mechanism by which that could happen or would have like Nikos like you know what? They bring up a good ride. I'm gonna get him back. Here's Anthony Davis. He's heard he's out for eight weeks And I have Luca back we've changed our mind about that deal. Hello, Los Angeles Hello, do you think they would if they had an opportunity the league said you know what it's not fair you can undo it do you think they would take back we're giving them a take you think they underestimated the reaction yes oh

I do like the Lakers don't have a say in this it's just the Mavs if you got them all on truth serum right you never have to experience what you I will just go back to two weeks ago pal you never have to do what you have. We'll just go back to two weeks ago, pal. You never have to do this. They would absolutely hit that button in a second. But that would suggest, though, that they thought, or they didn't know what the backlash would be. And I've got to assume that they would know what the backlash would be, that they would know

almost better than us what the backlash would be as people who know who their customers are, as people who know what he means to that region, as people who are more emotionally invested in the result than we are. New ownership group. They don't have their finger on that pole the way that Mark Cuban did.

We know for a fact Mark Cuban would have never done this. If Anthony Davis doesn't get hurt, are they still protesting outside? I think even if Anthony Davis stays healthy, they still go back because they totally miscalculated this reaction from their fan base. Does Palenque get to wear his jacket to another event or was that just the event for that jacket?

That joke didn't really land the way you wanted it to. We all just stared at you. This is the Don LeBattard Show with the Stugats! Ron McGill joins us now as he has for many weeks, many years, many weeks regularly, but he's missed some recently. Busy guy. Well, our audience gets mad when they don't get their fix of Ron McGill. I will tell the people, and I can't give you total details right now, but Ron is ready very soon to, for our audience only, un-retired the most popular thing he's done in his new career which is uh...

sex and the animals his sex in the animals presentation is going to do it for our fans shortly we will have more news on that front in a while but i want to play some videos here for ron welcome ron thank you for being on with us i want to show you first here a a here a dog that is retaliating here evidently for being hit with a snowball. Can we play please this video for Ron McGill and have him do a little bit of play by play for us? Oh yeah, you gotta give me the snowball, take this!

How about that? Okay, I thought that video would be a lot better. I think that over the course of the week, people who are gathering these things, I think what they should put at the top is video that's slightly better than that, that allows us to have Ron McGill do some stuff with the videos

that is more entertaining than that. Let's go to a sleeping, I wanna know what animal this is because this is not an animal I am very familiar with. Does anyone in here know what this animal is? Are you guys familiar with this animal that is being awakened here by a... Oh, it's a baby coppibara.

Yes, it looks a bit like a guinea pig. Are you guys familiar with what it is that this is? It's the world's largest rodent, except that's a baby. And that's a grackle that's trying to harass it and just being annoying like many birds can be sometimes. But that's a baby copp that's a grackle that's trying to harass it and just being annoying like many birds can be sometimes. But that's a baby copy bar, which is really cool. It's the world's largest rodent found in tropical America and actually eaten by many people

because they consider it a delicacy. And when you say the world's largest rodent, how large do they get? A big adult, over 50 pounds. Oh, wow. Put it on the poll at Lebatard Show. Do you believe there is such a thing as a 50 pound rodent? Yes or no?

I feel like I've seen those in New York. What happened? No, I'm not even kidding. You're talking about the people. I'm not even kidding. No, I'm not talking about the people. I'm talking about what I see at 4 a.m. when the rodents know there aren't people in the streets of New York, and I'm not talking about the people. I'm talking about what I see at 4 a.m. when the rodents know there aren't people

in the streets of New York, and I'm looking down the street, and the shadow seems like a horse of some sort, and it's just a giant rat. 4 a.m. in New York, huh, Dan? That's right, 4 a.m. in New York. That's the only time they come out. That is, you will not see them at another time,

not the 50 pound ones. I think the point is, what are you doing out at 4 a.m. in the area? I think everybody knows. I think everybody knows. Valid question. Yes, is it? Didn't answer.

I think you all know. What would you guess? I don't know, you've been swimming in the Hudson? To avoid the traffic? Yes, that's the answer. My guess is that he just doesn't sleep, because I get texts from him and emails from him at 345 a.m. I don't know what that yeah, he's a vampire

I can't prove that but somebody who doesn't sleep keeps odd hours up at 4 a.m. Looking at 50-pound You know rodents, I mean a dampire Dampire I like it I mean a dampire The most famous vampire there is you know 12 and one in the big east And when they asked him the other day they asked him the other day What would you have said to us if we had told you you'd be 12 and one in the big east his answer is how? Do we lose the bleepin one? 12 and one in the big East his answer is how do we lose the bleepin one? Solid guard play don't be surprised if the Johnny's find themselves in the elite eight. Yeah

Let's let's look at this bird here. You guys tell me what the hell this is because this is also something I have not seen Ron. Have you ever seen a what? Call the frog mouth You know, it's a Yeah, it opens his mouth. The beak is actually very small But the the keratin part of the beak is very small. They blend in with trees really well It's not a good example because he's on a loud, you know fence post right there but they just will stay totally still on the top of a You know a tree or fence post something like, and they look like a piece of wood.

They're fantastic. They feed primarily on insects. They're harmless. They can't do any harm to you, but they open their mouths when they're threatened like that and they tend to make people think twice before you get much closer. How rare are they?

Have you seen one rare? Have you seen those in the wild? I have, I have, yeah. It's just most people don't see them because they blend in with their surroundings very well. This guy's really standing out because he's not in the best spot to use his camouflage. But like I say, they're primarily nocturnal.

They're insect eaters. They open their mouths widely like that to catch flying insects as they're flying through the air. That looks like something that a cartoonist would draw. Well, you know, let me tell you something. You look at some of these animals. I don't know if you guys saw that video. I'm surprised you haven't pulled it up yet

of that deep sea anglerfish that they found. They videotaped it, it was on the news. It was unbelievable. This thing looks like a drawing out of your worst nightmare and it's a living, breathing thing on this planet. You know, normally found thousands of feet below the earth's ocean surface, but they got some incredible video

of one that had come up to the surface and was swimming around. You guys need to find that and look at it and tell me if it doesn't look like something that was drawn by some kid who's having a massive nightmare. Can you tell us how rare strange this is? There is a shark here and you're always telling us that that sharks aren't as dangerous as they're

made out to be by people who fear sharks. But what is happening here with an aquarium water dancers head and and a shark aquarium water dancers head oh Yeah, I saw the shark, but that's not a shark first of all. That's not a shark. What is that? That's a fine You know I don't I don't know exactly what it is These days I can't even tell whether the stuff is AI or not But I can tell you that's not a shark, because a shark grabs somebody's head like that,

and there'll be a lot of blood coming out. That's not what that was. Looks like it might have been some type of grouper, some type of Goliath grouper, something like that. But I don't actually know. To be that size, yeah, it needs to be something like a Goliath grouper. I'm just actually thinking that that's AI, guys. I don't believe that size. Yeah, it needs to be something like a Goliath Cooper. And I'm just, I'm just actually thinking that that's AI guys. I don't believe that video. No, you don't think the video is real? I've seen it in action. It was definitely not a shark. But

otherwise, No, I saw the video in action too. But, but Mike, man, I've seen some videos done by AI these days that are just even I is, you know, quote unquote, an expert of wildlife, but look at it, go, God, what is that? I mean, is that real? And then I've got someone to admit to me, no, no, it's AI, we did it in AI. I go, man, this stuff is really good. So I don't know what to tell you guys anymore.

That, I don't know whether that's real or not. It's certainly not a shark. If it's anything, it's like a Goliath group or something like that. But I've never, trust me, if a fish took in a woman's head like that, she would not be swimming away like she did like that. Ron, you know my stance on sharks. Hate the damn things.

You know, Mike, you gotta stop perpetuating that myth about sharks. I just got back from the Galapagos Islands. I was swimming and was surrounded by about 20 hammerheads just circling above. Not doing anything. I was in pure awe of watching this, looking up and seeing these rays of sunlight come through these sharks as they just Quietly surf, you know circled around it was it was actually peaceful It was it was it was like a Zen moment for Ron It only takes being wrong once when it comes to sharks. Yeah, so I hope for your sake you're not but I hate The same thing with a dog It'd be the same thing with a dog. No.

You know? No. Dogs are great. Dogs are precious. Yeah. Same, same. When a dog's in the water, the lifeguard doesn't yell, dog! Yeah.

That's how I know I'm all right. Okay? Everyone out! Yeah. Yeah. When a dog's in the water, everyone takes their cameras out. Okay. When there's a shark in the water, they yell, shark.

That's not a good sign. Okay? It's not. It's not. It's not. If you look, put it on the pole. If you're an animal and they yell your name out loud, are you dangerous? I would not purposely go swimming with a shark. Okay.

But because you see one is not a reason to panic is what I'm saying. Okay. What if I see a great white? Because my question is they're tagging massive great whites off the coast of Florida and near Jacksonville. All of a sudden we got orcas down here are they chasing food are we now living in a state where we got orcas and great white sharks just off our coast I don't like this one bit okay Mike okay let me let me put this in perspective for you yeah they're tracking all these great whites up and down the Florida coast when was the last time you heard of a great white shark bite up or down the Florida coast? And think about the thousands of people that are

swimming on the beaches up and down the Florida coast. We've already proven that these great whites are swimming up and down the Florida coast and yet whoa there's no great white shark attack on the Florida coast. Now on the other hand, how many people are driving cars? How many people are walking around? How many people are killed by cars every day? Ron, I'm not wrong here. I'm just early Thank you. There was a shark in the ocean. If there was a car in the ocean. I would yell car. Yeah, yeah That's a contribution Chris hold on hold on a second hold on a second hold on hold on Minor penalty two minutes for adding nothing. Car! Car! Ron?

Ron's the guest. It would be jarring if there was a car in the ocean. Car! Be car-y. Hey, there we go! Ron, if you could lie to the guests of Zoo Miami and you have an animal there via AI, you have an exhibit and the animal's not really there, but it's presented in a way in which it seems as though

the animal's actually there. People come from around the world to come see this AI animal. What animal would you have on display? Thylacine. Who? A thylacine. What's that? T-H-Y-L-I-C-I-E-N-E, I believe.

What is that? It's a carnivorous marsupial that became extinct I think in the mid 1900s early 1900s. It's got like a tiger striped back. It's got the head of like a coyote. It was an incredible animal until it was hunted to oblivion but they still believe that there may be some existing in the wild of Australia, New Zealand. And I think if someone were to find one, it would be like incredible. That would be a believable thing. Like if I said, Oh, you know, we've got a Tyrannosaurus Rex here.

Yeah. Yeah. It wasn't bad, but people are going to, you don't have a track, but they said, Hey, we found a thylacine. And because that's kind of been a mysterious thing, whether it's still alive or not, the last one was seen in the 1930s or forties, that would be kind of cool. Right. This thylacine seems very fakeable. Like you just paint stripes on a dog. whether it's still alive or not, the last one was seen in the 1930s or 40s, that would be kinda cool, right? This thylacine seems very fakeable,

like you just paint stripes on a dog, you know? Like, look at that thing, anyone can be a thylacine. Now, dinosaurs. I don't like that thing one bit. Right, yeah. You can fake that. Get Jessie over there, Jessie, our makeup artist, could go over there and give you 10,000 thylacines

if that's what you want, Ron, geez, boring. It's not that impressive, actually, to look at visually. And Ron is furious and he's saying. Why does he come back? Why do you guys have koalas? All they do is sleep all day. I mean, give me something with a little pizzazz,

put on a show, you know what I mean? If you're gonna incaptivate these animals, put them behind a glass, have them do something. Is that a word, incaptivate captivate I don't know you're the one doing Trying to fund the animals in the arts and they're just watching koala sleep all day and give people what is it syphilis? They give people run, you know, no, it's chlamydia and they don't give it to people. That's what kills them They don't give it to people unless you're doing really wrong stuff with koalas Sex and the animals he's bringing it out of retirement in a couple of months.

It's sex and the animals. It's not sex with the animals. Sex with the animals. That with is dangerous. It's illegal in the state of Florida, I think. I think it's illegal in all the states, isn't it? No, unfortunately it's not. It's not?

No, it's not illegal in all the states. He's researched this. Really? Sex with the animals? Get out of here. It should be. What states are you talking here? What are the states that are... Let's move there. Let's move the show. Research Research it you will see Reality is actually not illegal in a couple of states. Wow, all right, Illinois

Put it on the pole at LeBattard show Is bestiality illegal in all the states? As of June 2021, Hawaii, New Mexico, West Virginia, and Wyoming did not have laws against bestiality. Okay, so Ron, let's say you go to Wyoming, it's Valentine's Day. Hawaii is shocking. What animal are we looking at there, Ronnie? Oh God, I don't know how we go down this rabbit hole,

oh, that's a wrong term. That's not a rabbit hole. Oh! that's a wrong turn. It's not a rabbit How's your rabbit The bottom line is though in those states though bestiality as it said is illegal What is it can be legal? What is illegal and they? what is, it can be legal, what is illegal, and the way they get it. You're rattled since you went down that rabbit hole and realized that that's not the phrase you should be using.

Ron, Ron, Ron, if you may, let me try this a different way. Which animal, which animal would you? Oh, he's never subtle. You know how many kids write me on this show? Don't answer it. You know how many kids write me and you come out with that? No, don't answer that. You know what, let's give it, he's never subtle. You know how many kids write me on this show? Don't answer that. Don't answer it. Do you know how many kids write me and you come out with that? No, don't answer that. You know what?

Let's give it. I was trying a different way. He brought it up. No, let's do it. He brought it up. I didn't bring it up. He brought it up. I didn't bring anything up.

Minor penalty, two minutes for adding nothing. West Virginia, Wyoming, Mexico, Hawaii. Who's got to give this thing? Who's got to give this thing? One more video for Ron. Let's take a look. This is on a coast here and this is not something that I've seen before where there is a camel that appears to be in the ocean though, right?

This is like, what is that? How often, how rare is that? It's not rare if the camel's hot. I mean, it's just a matter of helping thermoregulate its body temperature. You know, the same reason we would go into the ocean, camels will do it if the ocean is available to them. Now, most camels are not in an area

where they're by the coast by the ocean, but this camel is probably one of the, you know, a working animal and was brought down there by his partner there and given the opportunity to cool off. It's a great, great option, just like it is with people. Water is a cooling factor. Might this be a camel with a shy bladder? And he's just like, I'm embarrassed to pee,

so I'm gonna go and like, and then dip in the water and just pee in the water. Is that what you do, Chris? Is that what you do? I've done it at the beach. Yeah. Okay. All right, I'm learning a lot more

than I care to learn on this particular. Put it on the beach. Yeah. Okay. I'm learning a lot more than I care to learn on this. Put it on the poll please, Juju. Do you pee in the ocean at LeBittard Show? And given everything that we've just been talking about, I just wanna ask a follow-up. Do you think that camel is hot? Yeah, that camel was definitely warm and it was just cooling off.

It's just, it's, it's. But hot? Just like people do. But look at those curves, Ron. Yeah. The humps. Oh, okay, I just got it. I's just, it's, it's. But hot? Just like people do. But look at those curves, Ron. Yeah. The humps. Oh, okay, I just got it. I'm sorry, I went over my head because I'm not as fortunate

out in the country as you guys are. Humping it. Was that, was that, was that, Greg going in there? That's my contribution. That is, that is, that is. That lack of subtlety was funny. Thank you. Well, yeah, yes. It's more subtle than what Stu Gonstead. That's correct. They do spit a lot. Thank you, well yeah, yes, it's more subtle than what Stu Gonstead, that's correct.

They do spit a lot. Thank you, Ron, yes, that's right. Good seeing you. I apologize to the great listeners who send me those wonderful emails about how they learn so much in this segment. I apologize for the comments. I'm sorry, yes.
