Hey, Dan, it's me, Lucy, and we are here on the beautiful University of Florida campus. And the thing about off-roading is we schedule these trips out months and months and months in advance.
Starting point is 00:03:21 When things looked a little different for Florida, thank you, sir. Tell us about this outfit you got on today. Oh, it was something I created. I'm that hard Gator fan. The helmet I painted myself. Wow, painted the helmet himself. You would have never been able to tell. I can't believe you painted that.
Starting point is 00:03:39 You have some talent. How do we make our friendship work on a day like this? It's tough. It's really tough. This is the, we're watching a friendship breakup live right now. Depends who wins, honestly. Well, that's going in your favor. He's my ride home.
Starting point is 00:03:53 Oh, my right. How would you describe this season? in a Florida football? Underwhelming. Unfortunate. Depressing. Would you guys die for the program? I spend 40 grand a year to come here, so.
Starting point is 00:04:05 That's a yes. To be honest, I haven't really been tracking it. Okay, so then why are your face painted like this if you don't watch? I mean, I can represent. Okay. I mean, it doesn't, I don't have to watch them all the time, but I do like it in my team. Represent the team that you don't watch. Is this your first Florida game?
Starting point is 00:04:23 It is. What do you think so far? I actually love the atmosphere so far. It's really nice. The trees are awesome here. Very. I feel like the Lorax, the way I speak for these trees. Look at that tree.
Starting point is 00:04:35 Look at this tree. Look at that tree. Good tree. Breaking news. This is a sable palm and is the official state tree of Florida. We're really just doing tree content. They can't all be winners, you know? Were you a Billy Napier guy?
Starting point is 00:04:52 Hell no. Not a single bit. I love him as a person. I think out of our last few head coaches, I will say he had a soft spot for him. That was a real long way to say no. Did you know they fired their head coach? No, I did not. They did a couple weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:05:07 Hey. Did you know that Billy Napier was the coach? No man. I kind of love you. I'm here to represent. That's it. It's my team. You keep saying that and you don't know anything that's going on.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Okay, so if we had our ideal choice for him, choice for head coach, who would you guys pick? LeBron. He's him. He's him. I agree with that. I agree with that 100%. Is that our top choice for the open job is Lane Kiffin? 100%. Are you nervous? He's going to go to LSU? A little bit. They're going to offer him a lot of money. If you don't get Lane Kiven, who do you want?
Starting point is 00:05:46 Anybody but Mario Cristobal, I know he's not even on the board. I just don't like him. Fair enough. Yeah. This is a Miami Bay show, so we approve a that message actually. You got the one Miami hater here. Who's in a worst spot, Florida or Florida State? Florida State. They owe him like $75 million still and the coaches staff over $100 million. It's like the battle of mid. I'm happy they're losing. Yeah, as long as we get that win, it'll be a great season. It's a win for us. Sean McGill is here, son of Ron McGill. He has confirmed that these are real. And I asked, where do you buy a gator skull like this? And he was like, I don't know, a cast station. How has your experience been with Tennessee fans today. Have you talked to any of them? Not really. We've just been tailgating
Starting point is 00:06:28 with ourselves. Have you heard Rocky Top? Do you guys know that song? Yeah, we haven't heard it today. We haven't heard it today. What do you think of it? It's a catchy song. A force of a catchy. It is a banger. Is it better than Wombeckdown? Absolutely not. Just asking the questions that I have to because I have a journalism degree. Do you know what they sing at the fourth quarter? No, ma'am. I know. It's okay. It's really cool. I think you're loving. They do Won't Back Down by Tom Petty. Oh, I didn't know that. We are learning so much today.
Starting point is 00:07:00 This trip to the swamp was brought to you by Hampton Farms Peanuts. Get Nutty with Hampton Farms, the official snack nut of bowl season. I have decided I wanted to clear you the Hampton Farms nuttiest fan of the game. So we got you this combo pack of peanuts because he lost the gaiters so much that he doesn't give a crap about what's going on. He just loves the gator. Yes, ma'am. Okay, it is.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Let's win. Dan, while Alabama was playing Eastern Illinois, and Auburn was playing Mercer. Tennessee had their own version of that playing Florida today. It was swampy in the worst way. Deeply unpleasant football game. Lane Kiffin, I really do think you're going to like it here. I really, really do. They gave me a Lulu Lemon bag today, and I just know you would love that.
Starting point is 00:07:48 I know it, Lane. I know it. Lucy, I have admired your growth here over two years doing these. packages they are harder to do than people understand. But this is your first work of art. To see the energy drained of that swamp because they're losers at football and you not being able to pick it up with your presence because the energy is dead. And the one fan you found with a painted face didn't know anything about what he was there for. Like that's the most useless environment.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Hampton Farms fan of the game. This is the most- No Napier was fired. This is the most useless environment we've sent Lucy into when she says this was planned months ago. No one could have seen what this is coming. Or everyone. They tried to kill Lucy, but she would not let them. This is a tribe. Lucy, you have not had a harder triumph since I think the Army-Navy game
Starting point is 00:08:37 where they wouldn't let you anywhere near the facility during these difficult times. Yeah, it was tough. The trees were awesome, though. That's a beautiful campus. I'm glad she mentioned that. That's always my takeaway from Gainesville. Such nice trees.
Starting point is 00:08:49 It's amazing. The Spanish Mosler is gorgeous. It's breathtaking. so at least we had that had you never been there lucy i have i went once before the last time i went we like didn't send rose with me we just like met up with two journalism students and they took me to a frat party so i didn't really get to see the campus uh you i'm not sure that you've missed much congratulations on making your way to like the seventh most important game in the SEC that weekend um it was just an understandable choice but before we get to florida being dead mike has been
Starting point is 00:09:23 wanting to talk about what losers they are at FSU since before the season. I don't know whether he's gotten any of his shots off on his private ventures, but Mike has literally for months been wanting to talk about FSU being losers. And so now where are we with Norville, where they're stuck with him? Yeah, so they announced Sunday following a loss to NC State, a bad loss, where Florida State committed a ton of just like stupid, dumb decisions, and that's why they lost, which has been the entire Florida season for the last two years. Mike Nervoli back for 2026, and it's pretty simple why.
Starting point is 00:09:59 They just cannot afford to fire him. I think it's $56 million to get rid of Norevel, 72, to get rid of his staff. And when you look around and you're saying, okay, we're going to spend $70 million to start over, and we are not the best job available or the second best job available or the third best job available, Florida State just feels like they're cutting their losses right now by being like, you know what, we're just going to wait another year. They said they're going to take money and invest it into the team during this time. Personally, I think that's just a wasted time, wasted space.
Starting point is 00:10:30 Because what quarterback, what coordinator is going to want to come to Florida State next year knowing that everything is going to change the year after? It's not supposed to go, Lucy, from 13 and 1 to 2 and 10 to your coaches in trouble immediately. Like, that's not the way that one's supposed to work ever. Ever. Well, I think what's worth noting is that that season has, with the context we have now, season was the anomaly for Mike Norvell. It wasn't five and six. Yeah, but it wasn't a fluke either, but it wasn't a fluke. No, it sort of was in the sense that Mike Norvell has
Starting point is 00:11:00 built Florida State by ignoring recruiting, basically. He is not a good recruiter that has never been his game. He's hit the transfer portal so hard and he got lucky with a bunch of really good hits. And since then, he's not changed the strategy at all. Florida State has done everything exactly the same. They just have not gotten lucky with the portal. It's not just Mike Norvell, it's the system he has built there where, like, that year was absolutely a fluke. He's six years in. He has two winning seasons. Like, we know who he is.
Starting point is 00:11:29 He's not a recruiter. He just hopes the transfer reporter works out. That hurts, though, to like to just, I understand how she's coming by the appraisal of fluke. But 13 and 0, like when you see how difficult it is with these team losing two games, like, when's 13 and no ever a flu? This was predictable. I wish we could go back, give Ethan the job to listen to this shows after FSU got screwed.
Starting point is 00:11:51 Ethan, do that. Because this was all a house of cards because of what Lucy identified, which is they struck on the transfer portal. They didn't supplement with the high school. To Norville's credit, they're trying to recruit the high school better. And he did fix a lot of the issues from last year. The offense did get better. They hired an offensive coordinator.
Starting point is 00:12:07 When they were sitting at 3-0 this year, like you were fooled, right? No, I wasn't. No? No. I'm telling you since before the season, I don't, look, I don't know what happened to FSU because I did see them beat Alabama. Like that we didn't imagine that. That's the worst loss of the season for anyone now, right?
Starting point is 00:12:24 I said we were going to look back on week one between Alabama and FSU and said this might be a battle of like an eight-win team and a seven-win team. Now, Alabama's had some one-score luck. I think Alabama's proven that they're all right. Yeah, no, they're solid, but they lost the Florida State. Gus Malzahn did improve the offense. It just so happens that he and Mike Norvell hate each other now. Lucy, before I get to your travels this weekend,
Starting point is 00:12:47 because Ryan Day is 81 and 10 against everybody. but has lost the last four times to Michigan. They play Michigan this weekend. So I suspect that this will be, this is going to feel like a giant epic adventure. I don't know what the best environment you've found yourself in, but Ohio State kind of quietly defending its greatness because they haven't been tested and haven't played anybody.
Starting point is 00:13:11 This game for Ryan Day is the only thing about Ryan Day that wouldn't make him better than Urban Meyer, correct? Like if we're talking, like Urban Meyer winning the national, championship the game that you're headed to is a legitimately exciting one yeah no this is this is it for ryan day this is it for ohio state the last time ohio state played anybody of any substance was week one against texas so like ohio state has been like very it's weird because they're the number one team in the nation and they look like it they've just been under the radar because they haven't really had these marquee matchups yeah this is sort of it like you have lost to michigan four years
Starting point is 00:13:45 in a row for the last obviously this year and last year you're significantly better than Michigan is. If this is the hump you can't get over, like, we're not at the stage anymore where we can be like, well, Ryan Day is going to get fired because he hasn't beat Michigan when they won the national championship last year. They have everything in front of them to win this year. It's just such a weird little, like, monkey on its back that he cannot get off because this Michigan team is a lot better than last year's team, but this Michigan team still is like their offense is not very fun to watch. Ohio State's defense is very good. Everything should trend towards Ohio State winning, but like, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:21 I don't know. Fives are odd. Lucy, if Michigan wins this Saturday and Oregon loses at Washington, Michigan's in the title game, right? Yeah. Yeah. That's totally possible. It really screws everything up for all the other teams.
Starting point is 00:14:36 Don't love that. It's very weird that Michigan is still in playoff condition. They shouldn't be. I don't know if they should be. Could they get in? If they beat Ohio State but don't get into the conference championship game, Could they still then be in conversation? They're not lost teams.
Starting point is 00:14:51 Chris, they're going to be ranked pretty high tonight. And if they get that win, hold on the second. Best win of the season, it would be. If you're Michigan, you don't even want to make the conference championship. Let's have this conversation honestly in front of everybody, okay? I want to ask everyone this question and I want to ask it aggressively. Tell me what's going to happen in Ohio State, Michigan, because I defy you people to tell me Michigan's going to do that to Ryan Day again. I defy anyone here to stand behind the opinion of Michigan's going to do that to Ohio State again.
Starting point is 00:15:18 I'm staying quiet. Don't talk to me. It was a lot more unlikely last year. I don't think Jeremiah is going to play in that game. They should be getting tape back, which is, you know, you contextualize the last couple of games that we've seen from Ohio State. They have a great wide receiver duo that's hampered by injury. But I'm really worried about this because the ultimate chaos factor and the CFP that deeply affects those fringe teams.
Starting point is 00:15:41 I'm making a Miami point. Somebody stake the claim. Those fringe Miami teams, like if Michigan wins that game, Miami's properly effed. so did we yeah for sure Michigan has like the ability I think this year's rivalry week like most of the things that are going to cause chaos with the playoff are actually
Starting point is 00:15:58 things going according to plan aren't going to be upsets with the exception of Michigan because if Michigan wins they can find their way in the Big Ten championship which they will need that to get in because they do have two losses to Oklahoma and USC I don't think Michigan wins I watch that Northwestern
Starting point is 00:16:14 game I don't have any faith that Michigan beats Ohio State but whatever I didn't have any faith at all last year that that would happen. And then Rose got pepper spray, so everything went kind of greasy. That's a great sentence. Yeah, I know. It's why that that still happened? I can't believe that.
Starting point is 00:16:27 That was a year ago. Yeah, Michigan is, they have so much potential to sneak their way into the playoff and do something stupid if they beat Ohio State. But that's a big if. And I've got to be honest, if you haven't watched Michigan football, which they've also been a team that's kind of been under the radar, I promise you, you don't want to see them in the playoff. We already have our own version of Michigan in the playoff with Oklahoma.
Starting point is 00:16:47 You don't want Michigan there. too you really don't oh my god it would be so funny though if it can't happen again i just defy any of you to stake the claim none of you are willing to stay somebody show me the so who is who is is the shitsterer joey galloway doing it who's taking i'll say it michigan wins my words mean nothing that would really really suck oh i hope it happens so bad nobody's willing to stay wait i just i i'm afraid of it i'm afraid of it because ryan day this is the come on the right um will make the player ryan day come on that can't be a thing right we're not going to say that's a real thing
Starting point is 00:17:20 that 81 and 10 Ryan Day doesn't know how to beat Michigan even if they're vastly vastly inferior he doesn't know how to do it he's going to lose the game for a fifth time he's going to be one of the he's going to be one of the great he's going to be yeah I know what that is that's
Starting point is 00:17:36 that's rose being pepper sprayed and it's cruel bird of prey it sounds like and it sounds like a bird is attacking my argument you think this is how Ryan Day feels Michigan week like I got his number I'm the greatest this ever been, except for this one thing, and this is that Jim Haas thinks Jim Harbaugh is the greatest just
Starting point is 00:17:54 because of what he started doing to me. Sucker. Bad take. All right. I want to get to because this. He's laughing then. He knows it's a bad take. I don't know that. Yeah, yeah, you do. You do know that. You now know that. It's a ridiculous take. Boss of the Jags. 356. Ass whooping. Hey, Chris here.

Starting point is 00:21:15 Oh, let's see. Stugats. I hope he has the day he deserves. That's how I get people when they're really mean to me. I'm not like, go F yourself. I'm like, I hope you have the day you deserve. It's a great kind, it's a great kind insult, yes. It's beautiful.
Starting point is 00:21:37 It's leaving it to the cosmos to sort it out. That's a less southern, bless your heart. This is the Dan Levitar show with the Stugats. The thing that I want to go back to, though, because this is funny, okay? What I'm presently watching happening in college football, if you have any sense of history, is amusing. Lane Kiffin, who is 13 and 25 against ranked opponents. Everybody is dying to have him, and I'm reading stuff on the internet that's like, Lane better win this one on Friday.
Starting point is 00:22:24 And it's like, no, Lane's going to land in a wonderful place. Actually, don't give a shit if I win or not. Lane could right now say, yeah, LSU, I'll pick you up in about six weeks. Can you have Orgeron handle the recruiting for me? I've got to get to the beach this weekend and Boka for a couple of weeks. He had a great answer to like, what about the kids? He's like, it's different now. They can leave whenever they want.
Starting point is 00:22:45 We're good. He's 13 to 25 against ranked opponents. He can have any job that he wants. He's been embroiled in scandal two or three times with, as Mike likes to say, burning mattresses. Where's this going to end up because it's laughably funny how Lane Kiffin can do whatever he wants? I think it ends up with Ole Miss losing to Mississippi State. Mississippi State's sneaky, decent, Lucy. They're sneaky good, and there is a dark, weird energy in Starkville.
Starting point is 00:23:13 There always has been. Come on. They're not going to fumble it at the egg bowl. It's not going to be fumbled at the egg bowl. This is a recipe. It's the egg bowl. That helps everything for Mississippi State. You guys are just going to keep doing this with rivalry. You know about that egg?
Starting point is 00:23:25 No, but it's the egg bowl. It's different. It's not just the egg bowl. That's the dark arts right there. But also, it's a coach that is clearly checked out. I mean, when have you ever seen a statement like you've seen? like from Ole Miss. His future will be addressed after the Egg Bowl. This is, this has all the makings of this team losing and Lucy, if Ole Miss loses and Lane actually leaves, uh-oh. That has ramifications. Come on, committee. No, I agree with that. So I, I think that one,
Starting point is 00:23:55 if you're a player at Ole Miss, this is the weird situation. You're standing on the sideline at Starkville, Mississippi getting like Cal Bell psychosis happening. And all you can think about is, is this going to be my head coach in five hours because you don't know. Like the decision is happening then. I understand the ultimatum on old misses part because you want an answer, but also it's like, all right, you have just completely overshadowed this game that is already weird against a team that may not win a lot, but is very good and can be very sneaky and difficult to play against. You have all of that if old miss loses that game, which is a very, very possible outcome and Lane Kiffin leaves. The committee, I believe, has already come out and said that that is
Starting point is 00:24:33 something they will take into account. You could very well see Ole Miss get left out of the playoff because they do not have a head coach because he has to make that decision by the Egg Bowl, which hurts Ole Miss. He's already made a decision. He has. And I'm sure he's already made it on Friday. He made it on Friday. And that Ole Miss statement tells you everything. That doesn't scream. He's coming back. I can tell you that Florida is trying to do what LSU did to them. Well, I can tell you. I happen to know Florida's. He happens to know. He happens to know. Greg Scott. He happens to know. He happens to know.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Gather everyone. Get the children. He happens to know. So wise. He made his decision on Friday. I text me where he's going. I want to know. Yeah, I think he's going to LSU.
Starting point is 00:25:19 He's the next coach at LSU. He's the next coach at LSU. I think he's going LSU. Zaslo has reported that on ESPN. You guys keep pretending to be journalists as Zazlo continues to kick everybody's ass. Zazzo's already reported on ESPN that he is going to. info. Don't worry. I'll never give you my sources. Don't worry about that. You texted me before your show.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Yo, I don't know why you got to say that. Teeth chattering too. Yeah. Lane is the ship doesn't have any leaks now. But I think a decision was made after Friday. I do know that Florida's trying their best to hijack it the way that
Starting point is 00:25:53 LSU hijacked it. But I think Lane Kiven is leaving and I think when the does settles, he's got to be at LSU. That's what I heard too. This leaves Florida in such a spot because it seems like the next guy that you would want is John Sumerall, who already was like, no, not Florida. I don't know where they go from here. The Sumerall thing I was hearing was just both schools kind of collaborated on like, let's make Auburn hire him. Oh, that's, no, that's where
Starting point is 00:26:19 I think he should go. That's how that's the most natural fit. I actually like that hire, which is weird, because normally if Auburn wants to hire a guy immediately, I'm like, oh, that's bad. That's not a good look. I just don't know where that leaves Florida at all. I don't know who they go for after that, because I haven't heard a ton of names outside of just Kiffin. I've heard a couple of names, and one of them is freaking shocking. Go on. You can't do that. Come on.
Starting point is 00:26:42 You can't do that. Oh, he can't do that. I'm going to speak for Mike here. He can't say it. Text me. Text me. Okay. I'll text you.
Starting point is 00:26:50 Wait a minute. He was about to say it, Lucy. I was about to say it. Lucy, you're playing defense against journalism being done on this show, wherever it is. You're telling us you're going to have a shocking name. A shocking name. A shocking name. Do not be surprised if Florida does fall on its face here
Starting point is 00:27:06 and Lane Kiffin goes to LSU, do not be surprised. You're going to hear the normal names. Say Urban Meyer. Do not be surprised to hear Dabo's name. Arkansas has been trying to make Dabo to Arkansas happen. They have been crazy online recently. Dabo Camp has been talking. Nope, put it on the poll at Levitard show.
Starting point is 00:27:25 Dabo Camp has been talking. Yes or no. Lucy, I want to get to some other things with you, but I'm going to say it. again, 13 and 25 against ranked opponents. I can't believe you made me say it. 13 and 25 against ranked opponent. 13 and 25 against ranked
Starting point is 00:27:40 opponents. But he tweets all the time. It's so funny. Might lose the egg bowl. Sneaky decent Mississippi State. Don't be surprised. Get out of here. What are we doing? Okay. What are we doing? Sneaky decent Mississippi State won one conference game in two years. He's doing a bit on sneaky decent Mississippi. You guys
Starting point is 00:27:56 are expecting him to lose the egg bowl because of dark energies? What kind of analysis is that? That is the egg bowl Darts You don't get it You don't get Starkville You don't get the egg bowl On a Friday day after Thanksgiving
Starting point is 00:28:10 You know about that egg bowl? You don't know So Zaslo says do you know about that egg bowl And you've had a couple of You'll have a guy doing like a dog urinating celebration And ruin everything Do you know about this act celebration Or this
Starting point is 00:28:22 Transfer the Axe, Dan The Stanford California Axe celebration will be awesome Why are you yelling at me So they have the transfer of the Cal Stanford every year, whoever wins the game. And the best part about this is with like two minutes left in the game. A bunch of, I'm going to say it.
Starting point is 00:28:39 A bunch of nerds walk out onto the side of the field. And they just stare at each other. I'm telling you, we're looking at a photo here with one minute 30 left. This started with about in game time, about two minutes and 50 seconds left. And it goes through the end of the game. And they don't break. They just stare at each other for about three minutes of game time, which is what in real time? 10 minutes maybe.
Starting point is 00:28:57 We're talking like two minute warning, commercial break. They're just staring at each other. And then Simon Cowell walks between them and everyone starts dancing. And who won this year? So Stanford won, so they had to give it up this year. Cal was holding it. So this is the passing. You've won.
Starting point is 00:29:14 The axe celebration. This is electric, Dan. Can you feel the tension in the air right now? This is one of the better rivalries. I love this. As I called it, the axe celebration. I don't believe that that's what it is, but I don't know what it's not. Like, there's an axe involved.
Starting point is 00:29:28 There's a transferring of an axe. It's an odd looking axe. We can put it back up. It doesn't look like a normal axe to me. It looks like a... That's Calvin Stanford. I mean, yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:37 Okay. Oh, really? We're going to do that? All right. It's an internet minute. All right. Let's go, sorry. Time to get in it.
Starting point is 00:29:43 It's Lucy's Internet Minute. So we have some breaking news out of some lower courts in Missouri. A judge has been suspended for, I believe, six months because he got in trouble for making too many Elvis references, and he would show up to court, dress his Elvis, and he would do Elvis for. and he was always making these weird Elvis references and finally someone reported him and they were like, hey dude, you're a judge. You really got to stop doing this. And he was like, oh, I didn't realize it took this bit too far. I'm sorry. I didn't know that everybody didn't love Elvis. I guess I realize now in retrospect, maybe I shouldn't address stuff as Elvis so much. I was just trying to make court a little bit fun. And that's what happened on the internet this week. Okay, so overruled. He's trying to make the jailhouse rock. if I show up to court and the judge is doing I'd throw the book at you
Starting point is 00:30:34 Just looking at you He's so pissed I've got a real suspicious mind I think he's doing like bad things too Like I think he was like taking bribes and stuff like that Allegedly I'm not 100% sure But really it was the Elvis thing that did it If you've got any others blue suede shoes
Starting point is 00:30:49 If there's anything you got in the holster there as Elvis Sir I think you're the devil in disguise You're Thank you very much Wow Limited fake there from Germany The rare Yeah
Starting point is 00:31:02 It is rare He's got one He usually offers us nothing So that's great Usually it's true I'm really upset right now Yeah no you're right About all of it
Starting point is 00:31:13 Chase The look that you gave Zaz When he said Eskimo Lucy is heading to Ann Arbor for the game this week And Ohio State Looks to beat Michigan For the first time
Starting point is 00:31:22 Since 2019 One last thing, Lucy, before you get out of here, Tony has been riddling Zaz with judgment because he's a now veteran of going into college football winters, but he does not know how to dress when representing ESPN and the top of the audio ESPN food chain. So his teeth were chattering. I could hear it in his broadcast
Starting point is 00:31:43 because it's like 300 radio stations. I like to text him that I'm listening on Saturday mornings when he's like dominating the airwaves, but I can hear that he's cold because he's outdoors, and it's Madison and it's 20 degrees and he's going to dress like this again this weekend. You did that Madison right by the lake? That's right. I'm brave, right?
Starting point is 00:32:02 No. I didn't know that there was a lake. You didn't know that? That's like Madison's whole bit, but also did you just look at the forecast? No, he didn't. Lucy, it's wind off a lake in the winter in Madison. Oh, it's awful. It's lunacy. He's lunacy.
Starting point is 00:32:16 He's wearing his yard work shoes. I have been to Madison in November. It is, that is unreal. So you need one, a new jacket. because you can't just be wearing a sweatshirt. You need more layers. You need winter shoes. I didn't see gloves.
Starting point is 00:32:29 You should probably get a scarf. Did you have hand warmers? I didn't wear my long johns. I look good at my long johns, Lucy. You know about that? Why would you not wear that to Madison? I want to see that photo. It used to be Bukshamby's screensaver on his phone
Starting point is 00:32:43 when I would call. Picture me in my long johns. Oh, man. Lucy, see, that's how I radio professional dresses, right? But the thing is, you want to elevate your game. You got to be better than that. It's not just about radio. You've got to be out there with the people like Zazel thinks he is.
Starting point is 00:32:57 Why do you have a cigar? What do you mean? In this photo that we're showing. What do you mean? Because you look ridiculous. Dan? You tell me. Cigar the vibe or not the vibe, Dan?
Starting point is 00:33:05 I wish Tony was having these opportunities Zaslo squanders. I'll take it from him one day. Tony would be dominating college football by dressing better than anyone in Madison on a Saturday. He would be like, who is this guy? And I'd show up and a chinchilla like, yeah, what's up? Aligni by 30 It said Zazlo's doing it Maximum Daytona style
Starting point is 00:33:25 He's doing it 790 the ticket Dude this is bigger than that That's right I represent home team all the time You know in the Never forget where I come from You know in like any movie About the Invisible Man
Starting point is 00:33:34 When he goes out in disguise And puts on makeup That's what Zaz looks like Zaz looks like the invisible man In disguise Looks like Hancock Yeah Lucy good seeing you

Starting point is 00:34:04 It's not going to be the same get-up. It's not going to be nearly as bad as Michigan. Yeah, that is a perfect outfit to win a Norman. I don't know about perfect outfit. What does Amber say about your get-ups when you walk into the studio? It's not that big of a fan. I'll figure. Okay, yes, it's a fine.
Starting point is 00:34:19 I think you've eliminated the five-bucketown. You actually pay it to me in perpetuity, remember? Thank you, Lucy. What is the fine? Okay. Good talking to you, Lucy. Mike, you know I have one rule to live by, right? Don't place parlayers on multiple long shots. Don't say a game is one when it hasn't hit triple zero. Always drink your Yeagermeister ice cold.
Starting point is 00:34:39 That's the rule. Everything else is merely a suggestion. Everything else? Everything else. Wearing clean underwear every day. Well, that's just a personal decision. Brushing your teeth. Obviously smart, but not a rule.
Starting point is 00:34:51 Never pee-pee on an electric fence. Okay, maybe there are two rules. But the one that is 100% that I insist on completely, Yeagermeister must be drank ice cold. Or don't drink it at all. Damn, that's cold. Exactly. You're finally starting to get it. Drink responsibly.

Starting point is 00:36:27 I would die I don't know where it is This is the Dan Levitar show With the Stugats I wanted to backtrack for just one second Oh I forgot to ask her I think she admitted to being a Miami hater During that video Yes she did
Starting point is 00:36:43 There's not admitted There's not much to ask Okay. Well, I didn't know. I didn't know it had been confirmed. I did not know that she had confirmed. That was the first confirmation I'd gotten that from inside, the call's coming from inside the house, that Lucy, a metal arc employee was an anti, she's a Miami hater. I did not know that. I knew it when she moved away. No, people can move. People can not like Miami without being Miami haters. No, she's happy when anything bad happens to the university. That's a different thing. Maybe even the city. It has been. It's a city too.
Starting point is 00:37:15 All right, but that's a different thing. thing, though. Am I not, am I wrong when I say that that's the first confirmation that we have that Lucy is a Miami hater? Well, or the last three years. Okay, that's, all right, fine. So proof but confirmed. And now we've got it in the highest form of honor this show gives, which is, yes, the echoing Gary Furman, that's the height of journalism.
Starting point is 00:37:39 Gary Furman, local legend, if he stamps it, it's confirmed. Lucy's a Miami hater. Getting carried away with legend. Yeah, everybody's a legend. around here. You're all shook up. Wait a little guy that's been around. Is it, all right, so, all right, so who's a legend?
Starting point is 00:37:52 Is Frito a legend? No. Legendary, smelly, Mike. Wait a minute. Fredo's not a legend. Is he still doing it? No. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:38:05 Not everyone gets to be a legend. He's got to have a podcast. Earlier. Do you want to know? Do you want to know it as a podcast? Because I'm good to go. Let's play that game. I much rather this game because I actually happen to like Josh.
Starting point is 00:38:16 Friedman. No, what I was just, I look, there is no As loves them. There is no bucket I like to rummage in. Not even a little. You know what time it is. Listen up.
Starting point is 00:38:33 Time to think fast. Is this a real or fake podcast? Wait, just slow down for a second. So that I don't exclude listeners who don't go right back to the beginning. When I was sounding like I was wishing you a happy Thanksgiving, and I did not know whether the microphone smelled like Frito or Frito's.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Happy Thanksgiving, everybody. This microphone smells like crap. When I was asking the question of the microphone because we were using all the same microphone, it smelled like also Fritos and Frito. It smelled like both of those things. So Zadzlo wants to talk about this, but he doesn't want to talk about. it and I don't think we want to bury. I'm fine talking about it.
Starting point is 00:39:20 Yeah. I... You better not say that I threw shit at you again. You did, by the way, but this is a different story. There was one time as a 7-9 ticket promotions assistant that I went in. Which I don't remember. Of course you don't, because you didn't think of me at that point, but I don't... You see me every single day.
Starting point is 00:39:35 But there was one time where I went out to the... Into the bathroom after Frito did. Mistake. No, wait a minute. I'm just telling you my experience... I'm all been there. Come on. That's...
Starting point is 00:39:45 I'm just telling you my experience. You've got to go. Listen to me. Those bathrooms were not nice. Hold on. So Frito's not a legend. No? Come on, man.
Starting point is 00:39:55 I'm talking about. He's, you know, he put in a shift. All right. Who are you guys willing to give legend to the staff? Wait a minute. Is Bob with shoes a legend?
Starting point is 00:40:05 Not in South Florida legend. I mean, he's the best voice in hockey. Wait a minute. He just said yes and you said not in South Florida. He's a legend, but not a South Florida legend. You're right.
Starting point is 00:40:15 I think you're right about that. I think he's like a New York. legend. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's not a South Florida legend just because he was here too short of time? I think most people don't know that he did work here. You're alerting people to the fact that he started down here. He learned at the knee of Boog Shambi.
Starting point is 00:40:29 Yeah, most people don't know that. That the illustrious career of Chuckle F***er... He is a legend, but not a South Florida legend. So who are you guys willing to give... Is Boog a South Florida legend? Of course. Yeah. Very quickly, Chuck F*** will join us tomorrow at 925. Good, I'll give him a piece of my mind. Of course, Boog is South Florida.
Starting point is 00:40:46 So I give away legend too freely then when I say... Yes. All right, so... What are you laughing at? What are you laughing at? They put up a photo of Oz season Santa. They put up his picture. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:40:59 He makes me happy. He was nice to me. When I was editing, I was first working on this show. He was in the... His show would be right after ours. It wasn't nice to everybody, though. No, it wasn't nice to everybody, which I have a problem with. He may have yelled to me on air when I didn't put the city of the caller.
Starting point is 00:41:12 Yeah, that's true. He did do that. I was trying to go above and beyond. Our show ended. I'm like, you know, I'm going to stay and do some calls for Frito. And I just put the name up there. And he's like, why don't I see the city? It's got to be Ken from West Palm, not just Ken.
Starting point is 00:41:24 What kind of shop you running over there in the afternoons? I side with Frito here. Got to put the city. Did you do that on purpose, Frito here? That was his tagline. Frito here. So who are the legends who aren't legends that I give legendary status to too freely? You guys have, because I think of anybody who can work in this market,
Starting point is 00:41:44 this is how I do this, right? I do this with Steve Shapiro. I do it with Jim Barry. You're the South Florida legend. Oh, yeah. No, but if you guys can do that. Deepa Squally, too. So you just got to be around for a while.
Starting point is 00:41:54 No, not just be around for a while. Not just around in a transient place. Do you think he has a podcast? 15 years is the cutoff. What's the cutoff where you're willing to give me? If you're able to make a media career in this market. Years and impact. How do you quantify impact?
Starting point is 00:42:10 So how do I give it to freely? It's like, you know, when you see it. How many, okay, so how many legends in the history of the South Florida market? are there that you're willing to give it to in radio? There's a lot. There's a lot. Yeah, I think there's a lot. There's a lot. Yeah, I think there's a lot of South Florida Sports Radio Legends.
Starting point is 00:42:26 No. Brandon Goosio. No. Josh Darrow. No. Down to Josh Jerome's hard lines. Love that guy. Joe Zagackie. Yes.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Kane's voice. Yes. I like Zazaz as judge for whether they get. No. What? No. K.
Starting point is 00:42:46 Come on. His tongue was falling off. The room just heard the room react to that out there. His tongue was falling off. Get the Kevin Rogers couple of clips that we have there of him being lonely at the Super Bowl because Kevin Rogers will be furious. Your tongue ever fall off? Does anyone care about this?
Starting point is 00:43:00 Does anyone care or know what we're talking about? We're going to do fake or real podcast in a second, Mike. But I do want to get to the bottom of jazz proclaiming whether people are legends in the market or not. Jonathan Grunfess. Let's play. money mark eisenberg let's do real or fake podcast i had k a rudge but okay okay go ahead that's fine lincoln kennedy what's up man yeah i'm working where you go you're on the f hm party
Starting point is 00:43:30 tonight you're going to f hm tonight all right i'll see you later it's such a 2005 clip i was there you're going to the fm party tonight you know that hot magazine that's kind of like playboy Only they're not totally naked. You're going to that party. They always throw a good one, Lincoln Kennedy. All right. Real a fake podcast time. Wingman with Matthew and Brady Kachuk.
Starting point is 00:43:57 Real or a fake podcast? Real. It's been getting some run lately. Is that the name though? Hey, real. Hey, your conviction is not helping tricking damn. Real. So adjust accordingly.
Starting point is 00:44:06 Play the game. Yeah, that's a real one. Thank you for being so certain. Why do I not get to play? Way to know, Zaslow. Because Dan was nervous. I saw it in his eyes. He had no idea. Let Dan answer first if you know. I'm going to be like Cody yesterday. I was unsurprised by that.
Starting point is 00:44:23 I'll never forgive him. I can't get over that. He's like, what? Can we re-address it, please? Just very quickly before Mike continues, because Jeremy worked hard on that bit, four hours for a buildup. Chris was enraged that your father can't be surprised by two Jeremy's existing. I know this move of my dad's of when he's confused. refused on something and he feels like he might be getting got he just goes into what jeremy's enraigned
Starting point is 00:44:48 like it was just this like indifferent of of course yeah i thought yeah i've been talking to a different person for three hours i thought you hired a guy ran through a thousand scenarios in my mind of how yesterday could go indifference was not something we was not the one we were like oh maybe because he he wants to be sure that he doesn't look senile he won't ask even when he thinks it's it's somebody else. I didn't think that because he didn't want to look senile, he would just pretend it didn't surprise him that there was another human here. I was having dinner with my family last night, not even talking about it. And I just started shaking my head. And my wife's like, what's wrong? And I'm like, my dad ruined everything. Dad spoke to somebody for three
Starting point is 00:45:29 consecutive hours was then revealed to him that the person he thought he was talking to was not that person. It was like, ah, would you look at that? Can I, can I just, I know that I'm out of time here, but I do just want to explore for one moment here. happened there? Because I felt like you guys not guarding against his senility was you guys not knowing your teammate there. To assume that he would have a surprised, befuddled reaction to Jeremy appearing in a different form suggests that he was thinking about anyone other than himself during yesterday's show. Like that he doesn't care. You would think that that would sur up some kind of thought about himself. He will not have a real relationship with Jeremy. He would just be a person
Starting point is 00:46:10 in the corner who's not Billy. who doesn't support him the way Billy He was just excited that there was a George Harrison He could name facts about it.
