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 he 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 has stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion. Cuervo.

This is the Don Leventor Show with the StuGuts Podcast.
Before we get to knee Smith's dunk on Chet Holmgren, Chet Holmgren, the league's number
one rim protector in terms of making people inefficient if they're trying to go up on
him.
Chet Holmgren was pretty terrible last night and hasn't been the factor in this series
that I thought he was going to be.
But Jaylen Williams is doing something after a season of talking
about staff lebron and who's the next face of the league jaylen williams did
something last night that now has the s p and comparing him to scotty pippen
all over the place it's an unusual story right he was five six as a freshman in
high school he was a fringe first rounder as recently as twenty twenty
stugat he was scoring eight points a game at Santa Clara.
He was the 230th recruit.
Jokic is the standard in that league
for nobody knows anything.
He's in the second round and he's dominant.
But Jalen Williams, this was not expected of him.
Certainly not expected.
Even making the All-Star game this year,
I don't think people had comparisons to Scottie
Pippen in mind.
I will say, what he does works really well for this team.
First of all, he's a really solid two-way player, so he's a good defender.
This is a team they love to drive.
They either want the new age NBA, it's either drives or threes.
Jalen Williams does a great job of driving, gets his shoulder past the guy.
Very much learned from Shea on that little shove-off,
and he's got great finishing left or right hand
around the rim.
Yesterday, he absolutely had it going,
especially with those finishes,
and then you know, he had the one little Michael Jordan
turn around and was really feeling himself there,
but it was a great game by a very good player.
I wouldn't put him in the Scottie Pippen realm
at any point in his career.
Well, I know, but okay,
but I understand how we have to do this
in the content game, but he's 24 years old, OK?
And again, I'll say, 40-point game in the playoffs.
Hakeem didn't do it.
Bird didn't do it.
Malone didn't do it.
It's an impressive game and impressive for this reason,
more so.
More so than just, oh, 40-point game.
Go ahead and look up for me all the times
he's taken more shots this season than Shea Gilder's
Alexander, because everything's running through him and he's the one
getting the free throws. He's the one playing downhill. He's the one when the
game gets close and everything's being decided with two points in the fourth
quarter the difference between the two teams he's the one hitting the three.
That game last night was not won by Shea Gilderis Alexander. That game last night
was won with their number two option being their number one option and it's something that I don't think
Carlisle or the Pacers could prepare for because how many times is Jalen Williams gonna take more shots in a game and get a higher
Usage rate than the MVP of the league like that's the benefit of having the MVP of the league, right?
You know
Defenses are going to spend all of their time all of their energy trying to stop that person at the very least if they go
Isolation with Jalen Williams early on and he's got it going spend all of their time, all of their energy trying to stop that person. At the very least, if they go isolation
with Jalen Williams early on and he's got it going,
they know he's not gonna get the same level
of attention as SGA.
So if he's got it going, if he's efficient with it,
that's a great option to have.
And there's some teams that have a big three.
Well, Shea is just so all encompassing
that he may be a shadow over Jalen Williams,
but he's a solid member of a big three
if you throw in Chet Holmgren.
It's not just a solid member.
The reason that team is formidable for years to come,
he's their 12th highest paid player at 24 years old.
That's good value.
Just put up a playoff game we never saw
from Hakeem or Bird or Mailman.
Mike, can you get me some more information
on that screen painting that was stolen
while I was in Lillehammer?
So there are four screen paintings.
Did you know this?
I did not.
It's like the Stanley Cup.
There are many fakes around there
so that no one steals the real actual one.
So the real one, the one that's the most famous,
is an 1893 version that was Tempere and crayon on cardboard.
Then there was another duplicate from 1893,
all done by the same artist, crayon on cardboard,
1895 pastel on
board, 1910 tempera on board.
Two of these versions have been stolen, not what is widely considered to be the original
one.
The original one has never been stolen.
But in 1994, during the Lilly Hammer Olympics, the 1893 pastel on board version was stolen
from the National Gallery. It was recovered a few months later. Also in 2004 the 1910 version
Tempura on board was stolen from the Munich Museum, no from the Munch
Museum, the Yardis had his own museum and it was stolen right in front of people
like in broad daylight as people were passing through the museum,
they just took it away,
but it was recovered two years later with some damage.
I appreciate you looking all that up,
I don't think we still have an answer to the question
of how hard it is to sell something like that
on the black market.
Well, I mean, those are just the reports
of the ones that they want to admit as well, right?
Those are the ones that they recovered.
There's obviously situations where, if the real one was out there and was
stolen, they're not going to tell you it's currently missing. We can't find it.
He doesn't get this black market. What happens on the black market stays on the black market.
It's like a good offensive line there. If you know it was sold on the black market,
you're not good at your job.
Yeah. You don't just go out there and brag about stealing it.
You have had all the answers today, Billy,
but you don't seem to have an answer to my question
about whether or not the Scream painting
after being stolen was successfully sold.
I'm definitely gonna be put on a list for all this search.
Yes, you are.
Be sure that I'm doing right now.
You are, you are.
How do I sell something on the blackboard?
I mean, clearly it was sold,
and they just put one of the replicas out there to now say,
oh, look, we found it, here it was.
My dad was born in Cuba, I can't be doing this.
I found it.
We will stop looking for this information
before we alert the authorities to malfeasance
after Chris Cody has suggested, with Billy's help,
that we just steal the Stanley Cup trophy.
It's possible, look, it's literally gonna be there
for the taking. Well, but it's literally gonna be there for the taking.
Well, but it's not gonna be there for the selling.
You can steal it and keep it in your house.
You're not gonna be able to get rid of it
and get money for it.
If you keep it in your house, you're an idiot.
No, you just charge money to come to your house.
You need to move it immediately.
Look, here's the thing, right?
You go out there, if you have the same case
that has the bricks in it of a bassoon or whatever,
it's a very easy,
oh, I grabbed the wrong box.
That's how you get, if they catch you walking out,
they're like, oh, what?
The Stanley Cup?
Oh, I thought this was part for my band.
Now that we see what the trunk looks like,
you can get a replica trunk like that,
put it on the flight, and then take the wrong one.
You guys are overthinking it.
Replica trunks and different trophies.
That complicates matters, gets you being caught.
These people don't know what Phil looks like.
Maybe they Google him, all you need is a white haired wig
and some white gloves.
But you know how to pretend to be Phil.
You're just taking the thing.
You pretend you're Phil.
They give it right over to you.
Perfect crime.
The white gloves are important.
They're expecting Phil.
Hold on a second now,
because I don't want to give anyone ideas and I would recommend
you do not take any of these steps.
But like what are you thinking with Phil if you're then assuming Phil's identity?
Is this like a bathroom chloroform situation?
Go in one stall, Phil goes in the next stall, all of a sudden you walk out, you do the little
whoosh.
Yeah, you have like, you have a partner.
You walk out as Phil.
You have a partner to distract him.
That's what I'm saying, you need a team,
at least a couple people.
Hey, let me take a selfie.
You're the cup guy.
And you just have maybe six of your friends,
like, oh, selfie.
So he's delayed on the way to get to the bathroom.
Honestly, right, and then Phil wakes up hours later.
This is probably.
We're gonna attack Phil.
This is a three person job, probably, right?
Because then you need the flight attendant
with the Listerine, you put it in Phil's water,
and then all of a sudden, Phil needs to go to the bathroom,
which is the closest bathroom to the gate?
That's where we have the fake Phil in there
You know you do but that's how you get him to go to the bathroom
You can't say hey Phil want to go with me to the bathroom. Maybe Phil says yes, but there's a chance Phil says no
He doesn't want to go with you to the bathroom. He's just met you
That's why you have the flight attendant with you know the Visine you put in the drink the old what's what is it?
You got him wedding clistering.
A quick drop in there. I said on the front end don't do any of this.
Don't do any of this. Like Alexi Wallace, we are all children of immigrants. Don't do any of this.
But this seems at least like a three-person job. I don't think that on
this particular day where the Panthers are this close
to repeating his champions,
we should be talking about crimes,
felonies, theft, chloroforming, fill.
You brought it up with the rom-cons.
I didn't bring it up.
Rom-cons and Chase, whatever his name was.
I did not bring any of that up.
I was adding to the story you and Chris suggested
stealing the trophy Chris asked.
No, I said do not.
I very clearly on the right hand.
I heard it.
Do not do any of these things, but it could.
This is like OJ, if I did it, this is how I would do it.
That's what I'm saying.
It's leading with us to be more positive around here
and this is negative talk. the day of the Stanley Cup
championship.
I'm just saying.
There's also four of them, they're gonna miss one,
who cares?
Hello Tony, what's happening here, what happened?
No, because you've had me outside for the last two hours
trying to do positivity by the way, right,
which is what I wanna do,
and there is not a Florida Panthers fan in sight.
So what are we gonna do about that?
He's pulling you out of the chair.
Wow.
Oh, this is completely happening right before our eyes.
I have to leave?
I mean, you don't have to.
Get out of here.
Get out of the room.
All eyes on the cup dance out of the room.
That was certainly not set up.
That was not a set up.
I need that negativity in here.
Okay, no, no, no.
Here we are.
Hello, everybody.
Hi, Tony.
Still my man. Hello, buddy. Oh, it's so great. I love this everybody. Hi Tony. Do my man hello, buddy

Are you sure? I'm
positive. Thank you very much Israel. I almost said it. You guys had me thinking
con movies. Con movies. I love a con movie. From the conversation. So I don't know
Chris if we have a little bit more dramatic sting for our first question
here. This will be a
multiple questions we may have ten twelve questions what I want to do is I
want to end in debates I want to end in a showdown between two contestants who
have amassed the most points head-to-head and you're gonna make arguments for the
movies that are based on the questions for the debate embrace the day we
derivative no I just invented it right now came out of thin air
the show turns in the first take at some why well no no no no no we are we are not
solitary here we're going to do this together we're going to do this all together so what i
want to say is this first question is about a con movie that i love it's going back a few years
and how we're going to do this first question is we're going to go around the popcorn
all right we're going to go in order here and I need
everyone, thank you, dramatic state, to name an actor who played a character in
this film. You cannot name the person that was just named by the person before
you. Dan, you're gonna start us off. The movie is Oceans Eleven. First round for a
point, name an actor who starred in Oceans 11 we will add points as we go
so Dan write down the name of someone who played Oceans 11 and show us on that
whiteboard you've got a big list this is one of the most character movies of all
time honestly just Dan is doing this just as do Dan has taken George Clooney
correct off the board George Clooney is a correct answer.
One point for Dan Lebatar.
We're gonna keep on going.
I see Israel Gutierrez back row.
Israel, the cast of Ocean's Eleven,
maybe one of the best casts of all time.
Can I ask you a question?
Yes.
What if we have the same answers?
You're done now.
You can't, Brad.
George Clooney's off the board.
Clooney's off the board, Brad.
All right, all right.
Yeah.
It's a big cast here.
Brad, my man, Pitt is correct.
Israel Gutierrez gets a point.
Interesting.
Mike Ryan Ruiz, you're up on Ocean's 11.
Scott Cahn is the next thing?
Yeah, I should get double points.
I mean, really.
I mean, it's cool.
I should get double points because it's a con boy.
You don't get double points.
There's not double points.
Couple of cons.
No, no.
Couple of cons cutting it up.
My man gets a point though. Wow.
Scott Codd's at home listening right now.

feel pretty good about this.
Billy Gill, what do we got?
Bernie Mac, I love to see the name.
Miss Bernie Mac, absolutely Miss Bernie Mac.

I'm upset Chris Cody isn't playing now.
We can say the name out loud for the audio audience to guys
while you show it on the board yes I don't even understand the writing on a
board we can just say it we don't have to write on the board it's an audio
medium it's two guts write it and say it Julia Roberts yes correct we're moving
out of the second round two points now for your
answer as some of these names become more challenging Dan LeBattard up first
Andy Garcia Andy Garcia yes remember his character's name guano no he's easy as a
Cubano of course I don't know his name. No it was a Terry Benedict Casino's yes very
nice book. Israel Gutierrez speak it to the mic my friend let's do radio let's the he knows yes very nice ball is regal tears
speak it to the mic by friend let's do radio let's say well i'm writing on a
board so i'm confused writing on the board thing you know i don't know why i

well
i thought that is an incredible now that that opens up a door Lennox Lewis is correct for Israel Gutierrez for that's two points now for scoring at home two points for Dan two points
So a three's time. It's not the franchise. It's just the first one first one
It's the first one all right Mike Ryan Ruiz and has three is he has three correct, okay, correct
We're still cooking one with Casey Affleck sure you did sure you did. Yes, Casey Affleck is a two point answer.
Billy Gill.
Bob Einstein.
Bob Einstein.
He's Matt Damon's dad, spoiler alert.
Bob Einstein.
But that might have been a sequel, Billy.
Wait a second.
It might have been a sequel.
Was it Matt Damon?
It was 11.
Bob Einstein.
We're getting a ruling here.
There's gonna be somebody.
And we believe now Billy Gill is out of the game
What happened Matt Damon, but you just say Matt Damon
No, no, I didn't say Matt Damon. I was out of there. He said Bob Einstein
How was to got cheating at this game Billy definitely said the name Matt Damon's dad.
That's what he said.
And then Stu Gott said, oh, he's Damon's dad.
All right, Stu, you're up.
Gil's out.
No points.
Joe Pesci.
Joe Pesci.
Incorrect, Stu.
Stu is out.
So now we got to play.
How was he not in that movie?
OK, on to the third round.
These are three point answers now.
We're deeper into the cast, of course.
Dan LeBattard, third round, Ocean round oceans 11 cast I am stuck because I cannot remember the name of
these actors I'm stuck I don't I know their faces I'm trying to remember their
faces that's good helpful yeah it's not I don't have a third I'm out all right
he's out his regular tiaras for a three-point answer. I'd get a half a point for this answer. Asian contortionist.
No, no.
That is not his name.
Oh, dang it.
He wants a half point, though.
Keen Shabo is his name.
You are incorrect.
All right, Mike, you have a chance
to rack up some points here.
You can go round three, round four, round five,
if you know the cast of Ocean's Eleven.
Mike Ryan Ruiz.
I really screwed this up.
Who the hell is the famous guy,
the jolly old guy in the movie?
I'm forgetting his name, he's a famous actor.
Famous actor.
He was the one who uttered those Terry Benedict's casinos.
Yes.
He once took a very sexy photo shoot with Muppets.
His name is Elliot Gould.
Elliot Gould.
Yes.
But now he's off the board.
Last chance for Mike Ruiz to get some points here.
No, I tapped out.
He tapped out.
So we're out.
I thought we could go three rounds on the cast.
We did not.
Matt Damon's name was not said in the answering of this.
He was taken off.
You guys made me a racist.
You didn't let him.
And you just took off Elliot Gould. And I honestly thought, I took Elliot was taking off. You guys made me a racist. You didn't let him. And you just took off Elliot Gould.
And I honestly thought I took Elliot Gould off. I thought Israel gave an incredible hint. This
con movie was based around a fight in Las Vegas, and he said Lennox Lewis. I don't know who he was fighting.
So that he was fighting Vlad Plitchko. Oh. And calling the fight was Jim Lampley, Larry Stewart.
Oh.
Danny Stewart, you know Larry Merchant, Wayne Newton
was in the audience.
Of course he was.
And that would have been answers there.
Alright, so.
But who won?
Just a tie?
We're ranking points here.
We have a point system here.
The game's still going.
The game's still going.
That was just the first entry point into the cons.
We're going to let you win, don't worry.
Dan is at three, Israel's at three. And Mike Ryan Ruiz is at three.
Some work to do for Billy Gill.
And Stu gots.
I feel like Stu should get one point for Matt Damon.
I would.
I said Matt Damon.
Split a point. One for each of them.
Without rules, we have chaos, people.
And Dan is chaos. I'm positivity here.
Positively speaking.
Nope, it's good. We're good.
Next topic.
Superbad, the movie super bad
this is a wheelhouse famed for many breaks of character including Michael
we had to be say it Seara Seara Michael Sarah's in that movie but so is the
character McLovin famously McLovin showed an ID the ID showed he was from a state what state of the Union is McLovin from write it, McLovin showed an ID. The ID showed he was from a state. What
state of the union is McLovin from? Write it down and tell us. You got 10 seconds
to write it down. What state was McLovin from in Superbad? We all go at the same
time. We all go at the same time. We got five more seconds. That's it. Hawaii.
Connecticut. Let's all silently turn around on board. Yes
Connecticut says to gods that's incorrect. He doesn't want to even try to spell Connecticut
That's all right at the point for everybody but Stu gots to your trailing still
Why is the correct wise for those of you who don't like the whiteboards because it's a bad idea
It's a great idea. I get to write and there is a McLovin from Hawaii. Of course. I thought that was gonna be five or five
Guys I want to talk to you about something that I don't think we think about enough on a daily basis and that's comfort
Specifically when it comes to underwear because let's be real when it's not right
You're gonna feel it all day.
And that's why I wanna tell all of you about Tommy John.
Because the first time I put on a pair,
I knew my underwear drawer
would just simply never be the same.
Tommy John just recently sent some of their product
to those of us in the shipping container.
And this is my first time wearing Tommy John underwear.
I was really blown away by the comfort,
by the stretch that was available by the comfort, by the stretch
that was available within the design, by the texture.
There's a genuine comfort and I can tell that they put in effort to make sure, specifically
in our case with men, that we would feel comfortable.
Honestly, Tommy John's changed the game for me.
I know it's going to be a good day now when I walk out the door and I've got Tommy John
on.
No distractions, no adjusting, just all day confidence. If you haven't tried Tommy John yet, I personally
think you're missing out. These are the MVP of your underwear drawer with up to four times

and please, let's take a round the popcorn look at Dan Labattard of whiteboard work and please let's take a let's take around
the popcorn look at Dan Labotard's whiteboard.
You still you still think I'm still thinking and I wonder if there's any penalty for getting
them wrong because I got two but I just there of course is a penalty.
I just want to.
Okay.
So I want to guess other two because I only remember two.
So I'm only going to go these two.
Nixon and Reagan Nixon and Reagan is correct.
Two points for Labotard Gutierrez. I've got Nixon Ford Reagan and Reagan. Nixon and Reagan's correct. Two points for Lebatard.
Gutierrez.
I've got Nixon, Ford, Reagan, and Carter.
Nixon, Reagan, Carter, correct.
Ford, incorrect.
Two points for Gutierrez.
Reagan, Nixon, Johnson, Carter.
Mike Ryan Ruiz is our leader right now.
Four points.
Sheriff, Sheriff.
Yes, Billy Gill.
Nixon, Reagan, Carter, Johnson, four for Gill.
I think he snuck in that Johnson after cheating off of Mike.
Pencils on him! And now Stugats keeps writing because he's
seen everybody's answers! Well, that's the advantage I get for going
last. Still, what do we got? Open it up.
I have Reagan, Carter, George Washington, and Nixon.
It's three of four, but you lose one for GW two points.
We're moving along.
There we go.
Who was the fourth?
The fourth was Lyndon B. Johnson.
Yes.
Wasn't really a president.
Highest grossing film based off an SNL sketch.
Highest grossing film based off an SNL sketch.
Box office?
Box office, you guys are all box office in my mind.
Highest grossing film based off an SNL sketch.
It's interesting question, a lot of them big money makers,
but some SNL actors made movies
that are not based off of SNL sketches.
While you may connect them, that not happens to not be the case.
Labotard.
I wanted to take Pat, but it's Night at the Roxbury.
Night at the Roxbury is incorrect.
Incorrect!
Wow.
Yeah, we're talking about actually making money, not box office poison. What do we have?
Isra Gutierrez!
So I have no idea if this is an SNL skit.
I haven't seen SNL in forever, but is that on there?
Good Burger is neither SNL nor that.
Now famously it's with Kenia Thompson, who's the great of SNL.
Well then no points for me then.
Mike Ryan Ruiz, the chance to extend his lead.
I'm a little worried because I'm worried that the sequel might have earned more money but I went with Wayne's World.
Michael Ryan Ruiz is correct!
Woo!
My man!
Wait a minute!
Wayne's World made more than Knights of the Rocks!
And the box office!
Box office is the question.
Yeah.
Why? Stu Gutz! I wrote down Wayne's World. Wayne's World it is! At the box office. Yeah, the box office. Box office is the question. It was probably a disappointment. Yeah.
Why?
Two guts.
I wrote down Wayne's World.
Wayne's World it is.
Three.
A point for Mike.
When did you write down Wayne's World?
Is it after Mike said it?
Decided now I'm not going to let you win.
I want it.
We're moving along here.
I want to have some time here for debate so we're moving along with the questions part,
direct questions.
Dazed and Confused
Wow what concert were the main characters trying to get tickets to to finish their senior
year of high school what band what band would be playing for the concert in Dazed and Confused. I'm ashamed to say that I did not see Dazed and Confused,
so I'm totally guessing here.
What year was Dazed and Confused?
Oh, no, come on.
Okay. I'm gonna say in the mid-1990s,
1997, when it just got here.
It was made in the 90s,
but it was supposed to be based in the 70s.
Dan Lebatard, what band?
Name a band, Dan.
Well, I was gonna go Red Hot Chili Peppers,
but I'm gonna go Rolling Stones. Rolling Stones his rigor T. R. S. I'm going with black Sabbath
incorrect
Michael Ryan Ruiz. I'm wrong. I went with kiss kissing correct Billy Gill. I put bad bunny bad buddy
Let's Zeplin Zeplin incorrect Aerosmith
Sports movies Led Zeppelin. Led Zeppelin and correct, Aerosmith. Ah. Man.
Sports movies.
So that's points off everybody,
but everyone got it wrong, so we're still moving along.
Mike Ryan Ruiz in the lead, Israel.
And Dan LeBattard still with some heart left.
Sports movies, famously.
Tony's Keeping Score.
A sport movie, Rocky. Yeah. Famously, Tony's Keeping Score, a sport movie. Rocky.
Yeah.
Famously, also a sport movie would be Happy Gilmore.
Yeah.
I think we all know Carl Weathers.
Of course.
As playing Apollo Creed in Chubs.
That's not your question.
But Carl Weathers was a professional athlete
for two points.
What sport and what American professional sports team
did Carl Weathers play for?
Sport and team.
Sport and team.
In real life?
In real life, yes, because Carl Weathers existed.
What if we gave you his number?
Is that a bonus?
Wow, that would be a bonus too.
Dan Labattard is on the board.
Football Raiders, two points for Labotard.
Israel Gutierrez.
Can I give you a little inside information
as to why we're all gonna get this one right?
Yes, please.
Amin Elhassen recently wore a Carl Weathers
Oakland Raiders jersey to the show.
Number 49, bonus point, American Football Raiders. Was it the Oakland or LA
Raiders? Oakland. At that time it was Oakland. Yes, 1970s. I hedged my bets and just went Raiders.
And Billy Gill? Points, points, points, and bonus for Billy Gill. Football Steelers. Hey, the bonus
point thing, it's a little shady. I appreciate the positivity here, the bonus point.
I saw him write it after.
There's cheating involved here.
How so?
Because we let Dan win in the end.
I love this game.
This is the best game ever.
All right.
When's the debate portion of it, by the way?
What are we gonna be arguing about?
I've got some debate questions right here.
We're gonna be arguing about action movies.
Israel.
Soundtracks, we're gonna be arguing action movies and soundtracks.
Alright. One more question here and this will decide who gets to debate. How many
points is it worth? This is a three-point question. Professional sports
athlete. It's like the money ball. Yeah FaceTime comes after bait. You can give us your hottest movie take. Happy Gilmore 2.
In the making.
One of our favorite character
actors of all time.
Made an appearance in yesterday's show.
Richard Keele.
Jaws fame from,
yes, of course, from Famous Bond.
Played a famous character
in Happy Gilmore 1.
Oh my God.
Whether that character is coming back
or whether this is the son of that character,
we don't know the specifics,
but a professional athlete of the last 10 years
will be playing the role
of the Richard Keele character from Happy Gilmore 1
and Happy Gilmore 2.
Who is that professional athlete? I?
Didn't know that that was happening so the villainous scare
They're gonna get a villainous scary person villainous scary person to play a heckler on the course
I'm assuming in the
oeuvre of the Richard Keele
Character and I'm looking for answers here. This is worth three points.
This will tip the balance if you get this right.
Mike Ryan Ruiz is working with a lead.
We'll go to Mike Ryan Ruiz first.
BoBan is correct.
So Mike Ryan is definitely into the final.
I can see right now.
Stu Gotts, you got, really, you need Chris Kamen.
Wow.
Wow.
Interesting guess. That's a good guess. Can he take my point? That's a good answer.amin. Wow. Wow. That's a good answer.
Chris Kamin famously while he had it he had a full career in the NBA the knock on Kamin
and you would know this right. There's several knocks. I wanted the shorter wingspans in
NBA history for a man his size he was very T-Rex he was very T-Rex
I just remember the face yeah the biggest knock is that he's Chris Kamen
yeah Billy Gill you need the points ball bad is correct okay
wait wait wait it's not cheating I cheat on the other ones not this one is now
this gets comes down to it so if Israel gets this I believe and we'll get a
final check of the scoring he will advance if he doesn't and Israel gets this, I believe, and we'll get a final check of the scoring, he will advance.
If he doesn't, and Dan gets this,
then Dan will advance into the showdown.
Israel, your final guess.
Wait, I saw what happened there.
Israel, don't turn over Billy Gills.
Who will be playing the character in Happy Gilmore 2?
I think everybody in the building here
knows my feelings about Adam Sandler movies,
so I don't think you'll be shocked when you see that on my board. It just says let's go cats, baby
The answer is Boba and I'm looking at their levitards whiteboard because whiteboards are
Positivity in the world and Dan Levitard is advanced with Boba and will be playing the retro keel
in the world and Dan Levitard has advanced with Boban will be playing the Richard Keele character in Happy Gilmore 2. Alright so we have made it to the
showdown portion. Do we have any showdown music here Chris Cody? Anything
in the quick in the dead, anything in the western style? That was a very positive response from
Chris Cody you should know. He just muttered bleep under his breath and then does it a lot through the public domain library.
All right, Mike Ryan Ruiz, Dan Lebatard into showdown.
That was the cue for you to hit the music.
How much music is in a game show?
Isn't it just one song throughout?
All right.
My man.
There we go.
Right on time.
24 hours early. 24 hours early.
And a 30 second TikTok if we have that here.
We will be alternating takes here and I'll make a ruling on who had the more persuasive take.
It's not to have an opinion, it's to prove why your opinion is correct right now.
You can have lights, you can have cameras, but you got nothing until you have action.
Action movies! Here's our debate. I need an unimpeachable Mount Rushmore. That means four
and only four. Make the case right now for the four greatest action stars of all time.
of all time Mike Ryan Ruiz you amassed the most points you have the chance to answer first for 30 seconds or defer to Dan Lebatard.
Oh defer defer.
Dan Lebatard 30 seconds on the clock right now four greatest action stars of all time.
Bruce Willis because they kept using him long after he had lost his faculties
Arnold Schwarzenegger because he's so likeable that he was able to overcome,
that he cheated on a very powerful woman with his nanny, had a baby, and
is still hugely popular.
Tom Cruise because of the Mission Impossible franchise.
And Wesley Snipes because I need a DEI group of action stars here.
I don't have, you know what?
And Charlize Theron because...
Whoa!
Time!
Time is up and you see what he did.
He added five.
We'll see how that goes.
That is him out great more.
All right, how about Mike Ryan Ruiz?
30 seconds on the clock.
Number one is Tom Cruise, obviously,
from Mission Impossible, Fallout.
Not even the greatest action movie of all time.
Perhaps the greatest movie of all time. My number two is Tom Cruise, obviously, from Mission Impossible, Fallout, not even the greatest action movie of all time, perhaps the greatest movie of all time.
My number two is Tom Cruise,
because he saved the movie industry with Top Gun Maverick.
My number three is Tom Cruise,
because there is no Top Gun Maverick
without the original Top Gun.
And number four, surprise, it's Tom Cruise,
because of Days of Thunder, because of Minority Report,
because of being the greatest movie star we've ever seen because of mission impossible one
mission possible to
mission by
all
while i was a fire take three of the fire sound
let me know
that
let the charges what what you had five in your mouth rush more dead
chaos you see does even allow for the positivity uh positivity. Let's go around the around the horn here
around the popcorn. Wait we need different music for this Chris? I just want to see Billy Gill
just showed me his top four before we make a ruling here. Yeah Vin Diesel the
Rock, Jason Statham and Ludacris. Ludacris and Stu. I have a feeling Stu's
gonna give us one name we haven't heard yet. Stallone's in there, Keanu Reeves
also in there.
And Israel do you have anyone you think has been missing from the
competition? I was eliminated one segment ago so I did not participate in this. Mike Ryan Ruiz dominating
performance. Dominating performance in today's Around the Popcorn. You have one.
This is when we're supposed to have some applause Chris
And now you have earned a FaceTime for the ages here Mike Ryan Ruiz
30-seconds of
Congratulatory FaceTime or anything you want in movies go in movies
Yes, this was around the popcorn. what did you think you were doing take your time
the Middle East this is a pickle best movie from the Middle East how about
that whoo that's great three. That's a good one. Three Kings is strong.
Black Hawk Down, Northern Africa.
I'm just gonna go ahead and say, go pants.
Let's go pants.
Yeah, okay.
Because look, the greatest sign of a man maturing
is when he can admit that he's wrong.
And plenty of opportunities for me to admit
that I'm wrong during the Stanley Cup playoff
when it comes to Brad Marshin. And I did. He's a good player.
But he's not a good human being. And I think that's the most important lesson that we can learn from all this is
sometimes bad guys win.
So congratulations to Brad Marshand, hopefully.
And you're thinking Brad Marshand's gonna lick the Oilers tonight?
I think if he does lift the trophy over his head today,
I will turn around and not give him any respect.
You met the oils.
That was great, right?
I walked up to that guy and asked him,
what's the name of the team?
He had him as the, the oil, which is incredible.
All right, around the popcorn, Mike Ryan Ruiz,
I'm impressed, I was told you were gonna win today's show.
Chris Cody, I was told you were gonna be right there.
Would you have won today's show
if you weren't very poorly doing the music?
I knew super bad.
Why'd you sit it out?
Yeah, yeah.
Because the music.
He had buttons to push.
I had one more question here, guys.
You guys can have some fun with it.
Ooh, bonus question.
All right, go.
Best soundtrack from a movie ever.

Because I think, you know, movies have music.
Space Jam.
Space Jam's really good.
Lion King.
Rocky.
Sweetie Todd.
And he's driving around, he's thinking about life,

Almost Famous is a good soundtrack.
Almost Famous is an outstanding soundtrack.
Fast and Furious 5.
Soundtrack.
There is a, there is an answer to a question as well.

Grossing or most sales from a soundtrack from a movie ever it surprised me because I thought Saturday night fever I was gonna say footloose right footloose is a great guess. It's incorrect. It's not Saturday night
Titanic it is Titanic
It's also in the top three because it had that mega hit from the Celine Dion Batman forever
