Guys, let's update March Sadness. It is time for March Sadness. I'm excited because we are finally into the second round
Starting point is 00:02:22 of our tournament. And as we know, March Sadness is presented by Get Your Guide. Discover over 100,000 unforgettable travel experiences in the US and around the world at getyourguide.com. We are updating the Greg Cody region. I believe Nice Hat Asshole was predicted to make a deep run in this tournament.
Starting point is 00:02:40 I can tell you, it has made it to the second round. Nice Hat Asshole. Guard play. It has a five seed, it has made it through. It's a complete team, if you want me to be honest. And we'll get to that one, but we're gonna start with the one seed. The one seed, Lovely Cruise, my dad singing Lovely Cruise in Vegas is the one overall seed.
Starting point is 00:02:57 That's the one seed? That is the one, it was more of an emotional, like we go for comedy a lot with this stuff, but that was an emotional moment for the show. So let's play that one and we will unveil next who it's going up against. But in the second round, Lovely Cruise by Greg Cote. ["Lovely Cruise"]
Starting point is 00:03:25 I'm gonna drink it up, this one's for you. It's been a lovely crew. All right, we're not gonna play all of it. So that was just a cool moment. The best part of that video for me is Yeti clearly telling my dad when to start singing in that because my dad has no timing. You see Yeti like you would with a kid,
Starting point is 00:03:50 like five, six, seven, eight, go. But that's a good, I think it's a warranted one seed. It was a great moment to be on stage for that. But this is a funny moment. And I think the one seed's going down. I think the one seed's going down to the nine seed in the Greg Cody region, and that is, it's Greg, bitch. I'm Greg, bitch.
Starting point is 00:04:15 Elton John? Make him look like a star. Yeah. It's Greg's bitch. It made it through. through that 19 has one good player right like that's the thing about this nine seat It's it's the boo-boo. It's the northwestern of hey We've got one really good guard if we can make this happen we can make a rough career Davidson, but you know Greg bitch I mean great jumper. That's Tracy McGrady on the bad Orlando magic of that right anyways All right moving on to seed in the Greg Cody region is Greg making a revelation about a magnum condom
Starting point is 00:04:52 What do I got here? I got a magnum condom We won't get that out that's shocking Here's a picture of Christopher when he was like three years old. Right next to the condom. Yeah. He's never forgot to use it. That's a reminder. Yeah. Never forget.
Starting point is 00:05:13 The way he says, here's a picture of Christopher and Dan says right next to the condom, it sounds like there's a picture of Chris as a three year old with condoms next to him. That was an odd, like I'm not, I'm a little peek behind the curtain. I fed my dad that line about the condom. No, don't, oh God, why would you tell people that? Don't give it away, man.
Starting point is 00:05:31 I mean, I think people know that jokes are answering me so mad. People wanna believe that your dad, A, has a hog, and B, is still potent. Sometimes I'll feed him a joke and I'm like, that was uncomfortable to feed him. Why am I feeding my dad condom jokes? Greg comes in one day and says Christopher you're gonna have another brother.
Starting point is 00:05:49 So that two seat is going up against my dad during our Miami Dolphins live stream watch-along that we I think we ruined the dolphin season with this watch-along. But it was my dad getting annoyed when we kept going to him in his press box. Wake him up. He doesn't want to be bothered anymore. Now it's getting tense because he didn't need that as a result. He needs something that happens. You can see that mother f***ing thing.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Can we bother? Are we bothering you right now? Turn on your microphone. My microphone's on. When my microphone is on, you guys have to come to me. I mean, don't tell me to turn my, you told me to leave my microphone on, I did. So don't tell me turn your microphone on when it's on. Paint the scene.
Starting point is 00:06:32 The paint the scene is I gotta go to work. Good night. He is gonna be pissed. He's gonna drive home pissed. He's gonna be mad at us. It does seem like he's actually working right now. Of course he's working and he's rapidly angry at us Who do you guys like their Magnum condom or irritated Greg Cody?
Starting point is 00:06:52 Irritated Greg is great. Yeah, I think I just go the story is I'm working. It's great I don't know the gold. I think the gold standard is still number two the quick hitters It's where ended to still the gold wrapper. Exactly right. All right, moving on, three seed here. Don't miss my wife. This is just an epic rant in Vegas from my dad. Are there any good Greg Cody stories not told by Greg Cody about Greg Cody
Starting point is 00:07:15 before we get him out of here? I have a couple, but I'm not telling them. Baby! That's my guy. That kind of thing, you know what I'm saying? We don't. No, I'm, you know what? I hadn't left the hotel until last night.
Starting point is 00:07:27 I'm a very quiet man. Yes. You know, I'm a married man. I don't cheat on my wife, despite that gratuitous line back in my day. That I wrote. I wish you were here, my wife. I really miss her.
Starting point is 00:07:42 No, I don't. That's the thing about being married. You're not allowed to say, I don't miss's the thing about like being married. You know you're not allowed to say I don't miss my wife I've been gone two days. I haven't been gone long enough to miss my wife. I'm sorry I call her Seconds you know what am I? Alright alright, we'll see ya alright, and then you know I'm gonna That's just that isn't that's a gray one miss the best part house jumpin Charlie good house jumping Charlie good And that is just my dad cuz he's so right about that That's a great one. Missed the best part. How's jumping Charlie? Good. How's jumping Charlie? Good.
Starting point is 00:08:05 It is just, and that is just my dad cause he's so right about that. Sorry, I had a phlegm in my throat. That is going up against a sixth seed and that is paranoid Greg refusing to do it back in my day. Dude. Oh, are we doing this now? No, I'll get cut off at this point.
Starting point is 00:08:20 It's too late. It's too late in the segment. No, no, no. I'm not going there. We make concessions for the clock. No, you're gonna cut me off. No, I'm not. Yes, you in the segment. I'm not going there. We make concessions for the clock. No, you're going to cut me off. No, I'm not. Yes, you are. No, I'm not. Yes, you are. No, I am not. I don't do the cutting off. I'm going to... You realize in a minute and 20 seconds, I will be like halfway through it. You'll cut me off. No, I won't. And everybody will laugh and I will be
Starting point is 00:08:40 genuinely pissed. Greg, we can move the clocks around so that we can finish this up and then we'll go a shorter segment on the next one. That's what you say now, and I don't believe you I don't believe you whenever I ever lied to you many times when it comes to a cheap laugh on this show No, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna have back in my day interrupted twice. I'm just not gonna do it that kind of thing and you know it Not gonna do it, and you know it. We're just going to skip past. What? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I did not know that. Ba-dap. Eisner. So classic Greg Cody there.
Starting point is 00:09:26 I like how it goes from like, you're not gonna catch me, and then he just kind of disintegrates away into random Greg sounds. That's a sixth seed, good lord. All right, and so our final matchup here in the Greg Cody second round matchups, it's the nice hat asshole time,
Starting point is 00:09:42 but we're gonna see what that's playing against. The fourth seed, this is a tough matchup right here. This might be the toughest matchup of all these. The birth of and you know it. Not close to that. Had two of us stayed healthy, that prediction would have come true. Okay. And you know it.
Starting point is 00:09:58 And you know it. I don't know it. And I don't know why you think. And you know it. And you know it. And you know it. And you do. You know it. Back at it again. Who else knows it? And you know it. And you know it.
Starting point is 00:10:29 A healthy tour and the dolphins are having a parade down Biscayne Boulevard. Elboy and the East. And you know it. And you know it. And you know it. You gotta finish it that way, Greg. Pants next.
Starting point is 00:10:40 I mean, I think I got, I know Tony loves Nice Hat Asshole. We're gonna play it right here. Let's just play it. I know Tony loves Nice Hat Asshole. We're gonna play it right here. Let's just play it. The five seed, Nice Hat Asshole. Can't trade Marino. Nice hat, nice hat. It's what he's most known for.
Starting point is 00:10:54 It's like, I'm holding on to it. Do you remember what's got Mitchell looked like in that next game after Marino got hurt? They were nine and two, they were nine and two. Amazing. And then they lost their last five and missed the playoffs. Nice hat. They were nine and two amazing and then they lost their last five and it's a playoff nice They were nine and two, but it's more No, no next time we saw merino after a great cody trade him he threw for five touchdowns
Starting point is 00:11:12 I had the man on the cover straight. You can't trade merino nice head asshole It's just the tenor of the tenor of the nice hat Elevates as also Zazzle is elevating his so Greg's like no nice hat nice hat! It's almost like he's like trying to find the window like nice hat asshole! He says nice hat Zazzle the first time and then I think that gave him the idea that Zazzle sounds a lot like asshole. There's a little part of me that feels like it's like when a cat is watching a bird on a TV and it's chasing after it thinking it's real like there's
Starting point is 00:11:46 A moment in Greg Cody's mind where he thinks that Zazz low can actually hear it right because if you don't well You don't realize there's my dad is watching In that room the audio audience the Zazz low and Izzy were on one day Greg's in there the next day. We're replaying for him what they said and he's talking to Zazz Oh as if he might be able to hear It's ridiculous man. No, it's nice hat asshole. That's a tough one Can are we allowed to give our picks or is that gonna? Taint you can know who you can say who you vote. Okay, so I vote for Greg bitch over lovely cruise
Starting point is 00:12:16 Yeah, I vote for Magnum condoms over Greg being annoyed during the watch along Paranoid back in my day over don't miss my wife. Oh, I go don't miss my wife there. No, paranoid. Paranoid back in my day. Because then it just devolves into Greg noises. But then this last one, this four or five, man. I think I'm going in, you know it, if I had to vote.
Starting point is 00:12:36 I like the participation from everybody. How everyone starts singing and Dan says, I don't know it. I think that's the way to go. Yeah. This is, we'll go check out our socials on Instagram and vote for these because it's getting intense. Second round match region we have, right?

Discover over 100,000 unforgettable travel experiences in the US and around the world at getyourguide.com. Don LeBbatard. All of us who were watching college football elevated everything the weekend was because we missed football in general so very much.
Starting point is 00:13:15 You didn't watch the ending of UTEP Jacksonville State. It was awesome. A doozy. Boom. Stugatz. Such a lane for you. Just everything in college football is awesome! Any single thing that happens she gets deliriously happy about.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Don't you miss viewing sports through that prism though? Like I'm envious of Lucy. Like I wish that I could still be happy. This is the Don Lebatar Show with the Stugats! with this two guys. So our very own Lucy went to Iowa's first two rounds of basketball. She's at the Sweet 16 right now. That's why she's not with us today. But last weekend she went to the first two rounds of Iowa basketball and she shot content guys.
Starting point is 00:14:05 How about that? Let's see what she did. She worked. Hey Dan, it's me Lucy and I'm here in Iowa City, Iowa for the second round of the NCAA tournament, Iowa, West Virginia. I heard you hated my last video. That was pretty rude.
Starting point is 00:14:20 I didn't appreciate that. I worked very hard and did a very good job. But as they say, if you don't succeed, try, try, try, try, try again. I believe that's how that goes. So I'm trying again. I'm back, I'm talking to the people. I'm working very hard and not satirically this time.
Starting point is 00:14:39 So please be nice to me. Do you guys have a favorite Caitlin Clark moment? You said these were gonna be easy questions. You can say all of them. Oh, when she drilled the three pointer to break the NCAA record. Indiana game last year. Whenever she's in the State Farm commercial,
Starting point is 00:14:57 I go crazy. I'm like, hey, I know her. When she set the record beater, if she was surprised, what did she think when it was going up in the air? And she said, I knew it was money. Yeah! When she said she was going to the pros.
Starting point is 00:15:10 That was your favorite moment when she was leaving? Yeah, the prices going back to where they were before. Alright, are you afraid of South Carolina? No. Scared? No. Wrong answer. No. No.
Starting point is 00:15:24 No. I'd be lying if I said no. I respect. No. No, um. No. I'd be lying if I said no. I respect them. Yeah, of course. Yeah, that's the right answer. People keep saying no and I'm like, stop saying that. What would you guys be willing to give up to see Iowa win the national championship? Oh, my son.
Starting point is 00:15:38 He would, he'd probably say, good call. He would, he would. Actually, if he's watching, he'll say, yeah, good job, dad. He'll say, yeah good job dad. He'll say dad I'm so proud of you. I would break up with my boyfriend for them to win. I'm showing him this. I love the Hawkeye girls. But not her man. My wife's right there. We can't, you can't set me up like that. I'm not saying give up your wife. I'm saying I mean like you're asking. But his first thought was I'd give up my wife. I just saying, I mean, like, you're asking, I don't know. But his first thought was, I'd give up my wife.
Starting point is 00:16:05 I just don't want to say it. Would you give him up to see Iowa win the national championship? I would go homeless. No, I'm serious. I would give up my husband's car and he loves it more, almost more than he loves me. We would give it up.
Starting point is 00:16:21 That sounds like him giving up something and you getting the next one. Yeah, that's how I rolled. Speaking of LSU, did you guys happen to watch Kim Mulkey's presser where she talked about the Washington Post? How did you feel about that? It's a little suspicious, but...
Starting point is 00:16:34 It's very suspicious. I don't know what to... She's full of controversy. Sounds like she's being, you know, a little bit too much right now. She did whatever they say she did. I agree. Unless I watch it first, it's fine with me.
Starting point is 00:16:46 These Iowans, they're too nice. I just want them to come out and talk about Kim Mulkey. I think she's a waste of time. I don't really like her that much. Took the words right out of my mouth. You get me. They should give me one of those. I'm not gonna give you any money, Iowa.
Starting point is 00:16:58 Stop asking. Hey, you f***! I'm not doing the dance world. We play a game called Who That Is, and I'm gonna show you a picture of someone, and he's in the sports world, and you have to guess who it is, okay? It's a man, I know, I know.
Starting point is 00:17:14 Wow. Okay, so he's maybe not a good person. He's the owner of an NBA team. Is he an Iowan person? Not necessarily, but maybe one day. He's cute. Okay, I almost got excited saying that that I know it's not your dad. Not my dad, babe.
Starting point is 00:17:28 Well, it looks like my friend Randy Krayche, who's in charge of all the referees in the high school athletic program, but I know it isn't because he's my age and that guy isn't. He looks like a sports feather. No, it's someone that I definitely don't care about. I probably don't even care to know him. I don't pay that much attention to the man.
Starting point is 00:17:47 I assume... Me neither. I assume he's not an ESPN guy. Not anymore. Not anymore? Well, that's true of all of them. You gotta say it's your producer. It's my boss, Dan Levittor! Yes!
Starting point is 00:18:04 What do I win? Yes! We have no prize for you. It's my boss Dan Levittor! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SHJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ Ugh. That wasn't enjoyable for me. Maybe a little bit at the end. Brother, I've run out of things to say because that was just, sucked the life out of me. And I know you're thinking, God, you look like a because it sucked the life out of you. It's actually the lighting here. It's terrible. It's been the lighting here. It's terrible.
Starting point is 00:18:46 It's been bad since I was a student. Five years ago. This was brought to you by Game Time. Download the Game Time app, use Go Lucy, get $20 off your first order, terms apply. I don't know if we're going to Albany or not. Me and Rose, I know Iowa for sure is going. I asked the fans, I was like,
Starting point is 00:19:12 you scared of South Carolina? Should I ask if you scared of West Virginia? Jeez. It's like left a taste in my mouth, you know? Like, yeah. I guess winning was cool. That was cool. That's all I have to say.
Starting point is 00:19:28 How about that? And the funny thing is Lucy said that yesterday, I said, don't you like close games where your team wins? She says no, she wants all blowouts. And so that's the real life reaction. She looked terrified during the game. She looked like she was crying at the end. Is she crying? This is some Steph Curry stuff. I mean, probably. She always cries at the end. She looked like she was crying at the end. Is she crying? This is some Steph Coates stuff. I mean probably. She always cries at the end, right?
Starting point is 00:19:48 Does she? Yeah, good or bad. Really? Yeah, yeah, she likes sports. Is there nothing to cry? Yeah. I famously only cried one time for a sporting event. So like the idea of like a win would drive you to tears.
Starting point is 00:19:59 I don't think I've ever cried for a sporting event. Yeah, it's not fun. Not fun. Was it happy or sad tears? No, it was sad tears This is when Brazil lost in the World Cup seven nothing seven. Yeah, someone Whatever was I tried I'm trying to think what has been the most heartbreaking thing is in my fandom Like maybe like look like the heat losing the first year the big three
Starting point is 00:20:20 I'm just trying to think back at like I was more heartbroken in a moment when LeBron left left Yeah, then I was that series because none of those games were like buzzer-beating losses Worst buzzer-beating loss I could think of ended Okay, cuz it was game six when Derek White had to put back dunk last year But then they ended up winning in seven so it all ended up. Okay. He literally left on my birthday Oh my dude Pat Riley in the plane and all that stuff.. He literally left on my birthday. Oh my God. Pat Riley in the plane and all that stuff, that was tough.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Yeah. That was tough. There was a magazine article. There was something about the 2011 season though where everybody was against Miami. Cause you got. And people that didn't give a shit about Dallas were such Dallas fans and I was like, please dude.
Starting point is 00:20:59 You don't even, you just got here. Like please. You wanted just to tell them all to shut the hell up. Exactly. It was Miami against the world. You wanted that moment of the heat would win and like, yeah, what's up now? You wanted to do, like please. You wanted just to tell them all to shut the hell up. Exactly. It was Miami against the world. You wanted that moment of the Heat would win and like, yeah, what's up now? You wanted to do that.
Starting point is 00:21:09 But you know, ironically, I think them losing paved the way for the world to embrace the Miami Heat. Because if they had won from the beginning, people would have hated them even more, man. It would have been like even doubling down. But them losing made them vulnerable, made them human. And so it made the next two wins like,
Starting point is 00:21:25 oh, it's kind of fun to hit a cool team. You say that. We were fans, it didn't feel that way. Felt like everybody was still really rooting against Miami. Not quite the same as that first year when, especially like the first LeBron game back in Cleveland, but when you were watching that team,
Starting point is 00:21:41 people were still talking like, no, this is all gonna be a failure, you guys suck, it's all flash and circumstance, and then they won the first one. So the second championship, maybe, because it was so fun, and then there was a 27-game win streak and the dominance was fun for everybody to watch, but that second year, people were still rooting against them.
Starting point is 00:21:59 Maybe, maybe I'm mixing up 12 and 13. But like I said, I think the failure is what allowed. If they had just won one- If they won the first one, everyone would have hated them forever. They would have hated them more. And would probably still hate the franchise. People hate the whole heat culture thing,
Starting point is 00:22:15 but they would still hate the franchise the way that the Yankees are hated. I'll tell you what I hate. I hate not getting credit. I hate not getting credit. I hate not getting credit. Every day I see my fingerprints all over the sports media landscape. Oh man.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Every day I see it, different ways. Is it Nick Wright stealing my idea for the MVP club, right, the MVP conversation bar? Is it someone else stealing an idea about like doing a movie podcast for bad movies? I see it every day. And the latest, the latest. So everyone knows about what happened with me in the jump shot.
Starting point is 00:22:51 If you guys want to run the video, you can run the video of me shooting. That's not how I shoot, but that's how I shot in that moment. And so I can't run from it. It's there. I didn't do it on purpose. It was an accident. That's not how I shoot, but it happened. And it went viral, right? And then I did the commercial and everyone loved that
Starting point is 00:23:08 and that went viral too, right? But you know what? That was hilarious by the way. Thank you, I appreciate it. But you know what's happened since this? All of a sudden we got a rash. We got a rash across the sports media landscape. Sounds itchy.
Starting point is 00:23:19 People running to document themselves shooting. We start with Skip Bayless. This video came out. He looks like he's 100 years old. Anytime Skip Bayless has to move. Anytime he has to move, that's when I realize how old he is, look at this. And it's like, oh look, I shoot.
Starting point is 00:23:38 He's shooting. That was the first take probably. It looks like he's at Hoosiers. He only took three shots, he's three for three. That's crazy. Also, whenever he shoots he runs towards the basket. Yeah. He's three for three. That's crazy. Also, whenever he shoots, he runs towards the basket. Yeah, that's the best part. That's the best part.
Starting point is 00:23:49 The momentum. It's following the shot. But I say all this to say, Skip Bayless was never shooting in no gym until he saw me go viral. Now all of a sudden, he wants to show everybody, oh, you guys think I talk about sports, but I don't do it? Here's my jump shot. Unless you believe this is just a me picking on the easy villain,
Starting point is 00:24:07 I'm gonna pick on a friend. Mark Jones. Mark Jones is a very dear friend of mine. South Florida guy? South Florida guy. Look, a guy. One of the best play-by-play men in all sports who can do different sports.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Mark Jones was calling a sixer game last week. Drew Hanlon, the trainer, recorded this video of Mark Jones taking this jump shot. We'll have a guy in front of him. This does look more like a one and done, like they just passed him the ball, he shot it. That doesn't look like, Skip Bayless cut his
Starting point is 00:24:34 so he had all makes. Mark Jones just got a pass, that's kinda nice. I'm just saying, Jones, it's 70 games into the season. The man has called about 94 of them for ESPN and for the Sacramento Kings now all of a sudden we got cameras when you shooting in Philadelphia is there audio to this video I'm asking our video team because they're I almost feel like they're talking about you know this he doesn't he just says first time I really do this
Starting point is 00:25:02 I really do this. What did you think? First shot! You think I just talk about this? What do you say, bud? You think I just... Good shot! You think I just talk about this? Jonesy, I know what you're doing there.
Starting point is 00:25:11 You're my friend. You are a trusted confidant for me in this business. But don't think you're safe from being called out. You know what he is? He was influenced. But, gentlemen, I'm not an influencer. I am the influence. Don't ever get it twisted. I set the tone for what this media thing is about.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Don LeBretard. Number three, Chick-fil-A waffle fries. Yeah, we can get mine. Love it. I mean. Nah, I think it's an overrated fry. You guys go ketchup or Chick-fil-A sauce when you have the Chick-fil-A waffle fries. Yeah, we can get mine. Love it. I mean. Nah, I think it's an overrated fry. You guys go ketchup or Chick-fil-A sauce when you have the Chick-fil-A. Chick-fil-A.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Polynesian sauce. Polynesian. That's my brother right there. Good call. You're my brother. Stugats. Oh my god. What a weird interaction.
Starting point is 00:25:58 White guys. What, what, what, what, what? Wow. This is the Don LeVatarar Show with the Stu Guards. You know, it usually goes that black people look alike, right? Yeah. We're, Roy, we're usually the victims of, you know. Yeah, we're definitely the victims of things.
Starting point is 00:26:23 Of the people mistaking black people for other black people. Like, for instance, when Samuel L. Jackson was mistaken for Morgan Freeman, was it? Or what was it? How could you? Lawrence Fishburne? Lawrence Fishburne, yeah. How?
Starting point is 00:26:36 Look, I don't know how. I just know that it's hilarious. But in a little segment we like to call America Just Switch Sides. Shout out to White Man's Burden. Sage Steele, who I did not even know she had a show, did this with Dana White. What's Joe Rogan's dream?
Starting point is 00:26:59 What's Joe Rogan's dream? Joe Rogan, Dana White. What's Dana White's dream? Did you just think that was Joe Rogan? I totally did. She just called me Joe Rogan. You thought I was Joe Rogan? Yeah, I thought you were Joe Rogan. I was bald before Joe was ever bald.
Starting point is 00:27:16 Listen to me. It could have happened to a better person. She's got to roll with that better. She just was like, oh, this is awesome. She could have played it off. She just was like, oh, this is awkward. She could've played it off. She did, she tried. No, she could've just gone, well, you guys are close.
Starting point is 00:27:30 And really made it a question about Joe Rogan and then gone from there. Flipped it there? Just flipped it. You have to. He never told you his dream? That's a good impression. I think that's, first of all,
Starting point is 00:27:42 it's a great limited fix-h deal. Oh, thank you. Second of all, I think the breathiness of the delivery is what makes it worse. If she had just said, what's Joe Rogan's dream? And like, I'm not Joe Rogan, I'm Stan. I mean, I know you're Dana White, my fault. What's Dana White's dream? I'm going to hit an emotional note here.
Starting point is 00:28:01 What's Joe Rogan's dream? And why are they not want to choose that's an excellent question can we watch that again maybe not what's Joe Rogan's dream what's Joe Rogan's dream Joe Rogan Dana why what's Dana White stream the double pat on the knee. I totally did. I totally did. She's calling me Joe Rogan. You thought I was Joe Rogan. Yeah, I thought you were Joe Rogan.
Starting point is 00:28:29 I was bald before Joe was ever bald. I know, I know. Listen to me. I think she's going for casual. Hey, on my podcast, you're at my house. Take off your shoes. By the way, I found the clip of an anchor mistaking Samuel L. Jackson for Laurence Fishburne.
Starting point is 00:28:43 Oh, can we play that? Working for Marvel, the Super Bowl commercial, did you get a lot of reaction to that Super Bowl commercial? What Super Bowl commercial? Oh, you know what? My mistake, you know what? See what, you're as crazy as the people on Twitter. Right.
Starting point is 00:29:00 I'm not Laurence Fishburne. Oh, oh, oh, oh. That's my fault, I know that, that was my fault. My mistake, you know what? We don't all look alike. Fuck, you're exactly right. We may be all black and famous, Yeah, this is just like Stu Gatzen, Jonathan Coachman. entertainment reporter for this station. And you don't know the difference between me and Elon's fist fighter. My mistake, my mistake, I apologize. Yeah, this is just like Stu Gotz and Jonathan Coachman. We don't all look alike. No, this would more be like Stu Gotz and Tony Collins. Yes.
Starting point is 00:29:35 Oh yeah, Tony Collins and Cassidy Herbert. Which is funny because Cassidy and Tony are not the same ethnicity. No, absolutely not. All women look alike. All women look alike. All women look alike. All women look alike, there you go. No, going back to Sage Steele,
Starting point is 00:29:49 the funniest thing to me is, even if she had said, what's Dana White's dream? That's a terrible question. That's a terrible question, like who cares? Right, that gets overlooked there. Of what a terrible question that was, if she said it correctly. What's Dana White's dream? She's trying to be like that was if she said it correctly I'd stay in a white street
Starting point is 00:30:05 She's trying to be like that dude from inside the active studio with that question, right? Oh, listen what's Dana White's dream? That's a funny character of her playing like a limited fake James Lipton sage Beach sessions. Oh So while we're here with awkward things set on camera, Julie Delpy, this is hilarious. I don't know if you guys have watched, who wants to set this up? What is happening here in this panel? That's the funniest part about this
Starting point is 00:30:41 is I don't think we all, we don't really know the content. That's the best part of this. So this clip went viral yesterday on Twitter and every other social media And it's clearly a bunch of really well respected actors speaking on a panel Kieran Culkin is there Danny DeVito is there and Julie Delpy is there and I don't know I still to this moment Don't know what the question was that set this up There apparently was a couple of minutes of pre-Ramble and some speaking after this,
Starting point is 00:31:09 but this is the audio and video that goes along with what Julie Delpy said. I sometimes wish I was African American, you know? Oh, we just cut that short. Oh, we really cut that short. We cut that short, because that's not the most important part, the most important part is the reactions. We got pictures of the reactions, though. We really cut that short. We cut that short, because that's not the most important part. The most important part is the reaction. So we got pictures of the reactions, though.
Starting point is 00:31:27 We have pictures. Culkin is like hurting hands. So here's Danny DeVito. That's the, pardon me. Like that's the, what? Excuse me, what? That's the, yeah. See, Culkin hurt it and is.
Starting point is 00:31:39 He knows this is gonna go viral. Oh my God. So I'm getting myself out of this. But going back to Danny DeVito. Danny DeVito is I've discussed this before on the show when you're not really paying attention You're like in your own world, and then you hear something that's like Rapidly pulls you back in the real life. I'm sorry what what she just said cuz I heard like Dana White being called
Starting point is 00:32:01 Joe Rogan. There you go. Like Thomas trying to describe a troll doll Like Dana White being called Joe Rogan. There you go. Like Thomas trying to describe a troll doll. OK, so. A deep cut. We have, it's not that deep of a cut because it's from the Tony show and the Tony show is awesome and it's a gift that keeps on giving.
Starting point is 00:32:12 And we've got, we don't have the video, but we've got the images of the reaction when Thomas said the word colored. Thomas is a producer here at MetalArk. He's a great guy. He said what now? We're talking about trolls. We're talking about trolls. We're playing taboo. art. He's a great guy. He said what now we're talking about trolls About troll we're playing taboo. Yeah, let's start in the beginning We're playing taboo and he's got troll dolls on his card
Starting point is 00:32:33 So he's trying to describe a troll doll and then he's talking about their hair and how they're different colors So he starts rambling a couple words. There's words He can't say if you know how to play taboo, there's a words that are taboo so he says colored meaning the hair and then me a meme Lewis yes so Mike Fuentes and Taylor all react like oh here we go we got so this is Tony's reaction Tony's I'm like this is this got my name on it so I'm really worried about what's happening next this is what I like to call Tony getting his resume ready the Tony show gets canceled on after episode one. All right. Next up is me. I believe Colored
Starting point is 00:33:15 Now I'm on Thomas's team He said this and I'm like Thomas what the hell saying, man? All right, who's next? Lewis and Taylor. Taylor's face is incredible. Taylor looks like he smelled something bad. He's disgusted right now. He smells a bar, and Lewis almost has a look of delight, of like, oh my god, it's all burning down. Oh my god, that was such a wonderful moment, man.
Starting point is 00:33:47 When are we doing another one of those? Soon. Yeah, man. Next time you're in town. Oh, okay. Very good, good. Julie Delpy saying that yesterday though, as a 54 year old white French American actress.
Starting point is 00:33:59 Like no matter what the context, the sound is just flawless. Like it's unbelievable. And Ciaran Culkin then recreating the visual of him caught in the boardroom during Succession. Everybody knows they've used that sort of meme all the time of him just sort of, and literally recreating it, head in his hands.
Starting point is 00:34:19 And I wanna know, like, is he putting his head in his hands out of shame for her, or is he putting his head in his hands because he doesn't want to be associated with this clip. No, no, no, no, it's a combo both No, I think it's like oh dear god. I'm seeing a headline now because she did apologize for these countries This was around Oscars time and it was about the diversity Two-time Academy Award nominee had said it was better to be African-American than a woman in Hollywood while discussing row Oh row Row versus weight well row over all white nominations is better to be African American than a woman in Hollywood while discussing Roe, oh Roe, what? Roe versus Wade?
Starting point is 00:34:47 No, Roe over all white nominations? Rau. Rau. Rau. Rau, that's like when, you're- Spelled Roe though. Yeah, you're reading from like a British website. Oh, yeah. The Brits, when they wanna say like a big hubbub,
Starting point is 00:34:58 they go, they made a rau about less than- That's what's okay. No, does she not realize that there were black women? No, well, no, it's not even that it's it's just dumb We see cuz her I heard the longer clip and she says like cuz they can say things and no one like makes a big deal About I'm like, oh my god. I'm very sorry for how I expressed myself It was never meant to diminish the injustice done to African American artists. So she kind of you know, she walked it back She backtracked. Well, yeah, no walked
Starting point is 00:35:26 She moonwalked it She moonwalked. So easy for them to do it. Yo man, let me ask you guys a question about these streaming apps. Because not all streaming apps are created equally, right? And I'm talking about like Netflix, Hulu, Max, et cetera, et cetera, right? Some of them, they're great.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Like it's not, first of all, this is my theory. The main thing that should come up should be things that the algorithm knows based on what you like. You would probably like this. The next thing on the screen should be finish watching what you were watching. I hate having to scroll to find the finish watching
Starting point is 00:36:07 what I was watching, this is ridiculous. Or continue watching the series that you're watching. Those should be the second thing on the screen. Some of these apps get it right, we don't need to name names, some of them don't. But the thing I hate the most is if you're gonna be suggesting things to me, you're gonna hide me continuing watching what I was watching.
Starting point is 00:36:29 At least suggest something I watch, man. How you gonna suggest something that has nothing to do with me? The whole point of this- Do you even know me? Yeah, do you even know me? How do you feel about the top 10? Oh, this is the top 10.
Starting point is 00:36:41 I like it. I like it because sometimes I don't know what I wanna watch. I finished watching whatever it. I like it. I like it because sometimes I don't know what I want to watch. I finished watching whatever it was I was watching. And the suggestions aren't so great. I'm like, well, let me see what everybody else is watching. Do you believe the top 10? I was just about to say.
Starting point is 00:36:54 Do you believe that that's not just them corporately trying to get the stuff they invested in? Can a movie buy its way to number one? Yeah, I feel like it's like buying yourself a Billboard hit. I would say I believe it because Seinfeld is always in the top 10. And they don't own that they just have they just paid The rights for it. So suits was in the top ten to that. They don't own that one either Yeah, but that was a newly added so it's like that's my question
Starting point is 00:37:16 There's stuff that's really out of there. Nobody watches Yeah, right, but when they newly add something and they want it to rise I would chance that they're putting that in there I'm not saying necessarily that that is happening. I'm just asking questions. And I would say that Netflix, when it comes to the algorithm suggesting, actually does a pretty good job. Yeah, they're good at it. They're good at it. But that top ten. So is HBO Max. The top ten. It's just Max. It's just Max. The top ten on Netflix. When it's Netflix produce shows with the red end on it,
Starting point is 00:37:44 I'm like, I don't know. I don't know, it might be some juice. That's all I'm saying. I gotta hear other people talk about it. If another person told me about it, then I'm like, okay, I'm a little invested. But I feel like a lot of people fall for it, because a lot of people will watch
Starting point is 00:37:57 whatever's in the top 10, just blindly. I know, because they watch terrible shows and they're like, this is bad. I'm like, why'd you watch it? Yeah, of course. Who's top 10? They have Culkin in the bottom right of your screen right now. His reaction to Delpy. Oh, man. He's biting his lips.
Starting point is 00:38:11 Who is he closest to on the Tony show? Like, where would he have sat on the Tony show? Oh, Taylor for sure. Next to you? It was almost like the Tony look. Like, he's concerned for his career the way Tony was. I'm DeVito. You're always DeVito. I'm DeVito. You're always DeVito. and breast milk. We are the first and only US-made formula to use organic, grass-fed whole milk, not skim. We make our formula in our own factories in Iowa,

We ran the largest clinical trial by a new infant formula company in 25 years and clinically proved benefits like easier digestion, less gas, and softer poops versus a leading infant formula. We were the first infant formula company to earn the Clean Label Project Purity Award. And while we've put a lot into BiHeart, there's a long list of things you won't see
