You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. This is the Dan Leventor Show with the Stugats Podcast. Stugats, I have to skip past some of the football stuff that there's just not enough time for today. So I'm sorry, I've got no time for Dan Campbell. If you want to kick an onside kick down 10 against Buffalo, I'm fine with it. Whatever you want to do, you're going to play more recklessly than everyone else. Okay, I'm good. As long as we know that when the playoffs come, you're going to keep playing the same way. You're not going to get scared.

I hate that rule. You shouldn't have to announce an onside kick. The element of surprise is what makes an onside kickside kick i know and safety is what they're going for there and guess what you cannot be safer on football without the problems that's why everyone's broken and now everyone's worried today about patrick mahomes is why that i doubt looks like that when uh... miles garrett is flopping the other thing i wanted to talk about that we will not have time to get to

and the bay seems like it'd be hard to get to. Holy, Tampa Bay. Seems like it'd be hard to get to seven and seven in that league when you require Mike Evans giving you all of that, to do that at the Chargers. And we're not even gonna talk about Baker Mayfield and Mike Evans because, and Hall of Famer Mike Evans. Thousand yard season every season, no one can stop him ever, Mike Evans.

Yeah, we're not gonna talk about any of this. We're not gonna actually talk about any of this. We're gonna actually talk about any of this we're not gonna talk about mike evans we're not gonna talk about baker mayfield we're not going to talk about how the athletes are bigger stronger faster than they've ever been before we're not gonna talk about any of that damn we're gonna talk with something else which is that it's your birthday today yeah

yeah yeah good at birth the box are eight and six not dead. I'm not good at birthdays. The bucks are eight and six, by the way. I'm not good at, oh, I'm sorry, okay. We're gonna talk about how it's your birthday, and also we're gonna talk about how it's the end of 2024. And as a fan of the show,

and as a fan of Men-O-Lark media, I, Mike Schur, have made some observations. It is time for Mike Schur to share his game notes. It is time for Mike Schurth to share his game notes. No one in the media will tell you what happened better than my voice. Mike Schurth. What a great honor. 2024 MetalArk Media Observations. Wow.

Is brought to you by the world champion Boston Celtics. Oh God. That's right. the Celtics bought this sponsorship space just to piss off Mike Ryan one more time before the year it doesn't look what do you want me to do this Celtic swooped in and bought this sponsorship to this segment just to piss you off one more time. It's my birthday, I don't understand. Dan! He was supposed to be the savior of New York City. The Big Apple was desperate for him to lead their faded franchise back to glory.

But his body was too old and broken down. And instead of focusing on his job, he was off doing hallucinogenic drugs and making documentaries about himself. But damn it I still have faith that he can return to his old MVP self because this is one champion you can never count out. And Dan, make no mistake about it, just like that, Stu Gotz is back! Stu gots is back yes Stu gots book.com yes WFAN's loss is metal arcs now loss I guess haven't had a chance to read Stu gots book yet but then again neither has to gots it's time for a 2024 Miami Heat roundup.

Just stop talking for like two minutes. I literally beg you. Also, I had a great time on the pitch clock. Please have me back. He's the only other person I know who likes baseball. The Miami Heat are floating Jimmy Butler trade rumors again. Hey, does anyone want to pay a 36 year old clubhouse poison $52 million next year?

Tempting offer, Pat, but I'll pass. Unfortunately for Stugats, the only team I can imagine falling for that is the New York Jets. Yeah. The New York Jets might sign Jimmy Butler. Miami Hurricanes. The rare top flight blue blood football program to make an appearance in the Pop Tarts Bowl. Hey, you know what the H in Hurricanes stands for, Dan?

I do not. It stands for... They do not it stands for Trophy the trophy is a football that actually That's where Mike Ryan's blue blood top flight program ended up Bought his way right into the goddamn pop tarts It's a prestigious ball Mike it is all right here come the Rockets Shout out to Jessica Spatana Notre Dame football made the playoff Notre Dame women's basketball just beat Yukon top five program Steelers are the team no one wants to play in the playoffs and the rest of you jemokes meanwhile just root for

a bunch of awful loser teams and she has to sit there every week and listen to you talk about how the dolphins have a 2% chance to get the 7 seed of the Colts finish with three straight ties. It is. It's a version of hell. Yeah. You tell them Bill. In the mix. Yeah. She just shot us double birds and I deserved them. Yeah. Yeah. She gets shot us double birds and I deserved them. Yeah. She doesn't get to celebrate her teams

because we're too busy celebrating our six and eights around here. That's right. She has the patience of Jobe, that woman. Lucy Rodin. Somehow convinced Meadowlark to pay her to travel all over the country and go to college football games. I couldn't convince Meadowlark to host my not-for-profit

baseball podcast on their podcasting network. What does she do it? Do you know anybody at Texas? Hey, I have another Meadowlark media drinking game. We all do a shot of whiskey every time David Sampson says de minimis. Oh, the cost is de minimis. Oh, the Samson says de minimis. Oh, the cost is de minimis. Oh, the overall expenditure is de minimis.

It's really de minimis. No, it's de minimis. You know what the D in David Samson stands for, Dan? He wants to get a hold of you so badly. He wants your private telephone number. He asked me for it. He thinks he can win you over. He's won Chris Cody over.

Chris Cody's come over to the dark side. He says he likes David Sampson now. I don't feel good about it, but these feelings, they just, he's nice. I'll ask you again. He's de minimis. You know what the D, no. It stands for don't ever give him my phone number.

Oh, okay. Good guess though, I mean. He has still not gotten it. He is frustrated. He says we're MetalAr though, I mean. He has still not gotten it, he is frustrated. He says, we're MetalArk teammates. You say you guys have not even renewed my not-for-profit podcast. That's right, we're not teammates.

Because of business people like him. Hey, Dan LeVetard is 56 years old today, everyone. And I'll tell you something else. He doesn't look a day under 56 years old. Dan Levatard, do it at 57. You made Jessica cover her face in shame with that joke. She's laughing so genuinely at the fact that I don't look a day over 56

because the last four years, a day under 56, because the last four years, a day under 56 because the last four years have aged me 70 years. I'm running this goddamn company. You went right from 44 to 56, you quantum leaped. Oh my God. Top five handsomest men who are 56 years old. Oh wow.

Number five, Will Smith. Number 4, Aaron Eckhart. Number 3, Daniel Craig. Number 2, Hugh Jackman. What? And the number 1, handsomest, 56 year old man, Timothy Oliphant. I guess Dan didn't make the list. Metal Arch Media in a contract year.

Trying to make a good impression on DraftKings. Hey, I know what will seal the deal. More Tony's top five. Nothing makes a company want to give you tens of millions of dollars. Like sending a guy to do a pointless remote from a random spot in South Florida on a three second radio lag. Saying, you know, I don't entirely trust Nick Sirianni.

Hey. Hey. You can't get analysis like that just anywhere. Only at Metal Archmedia. Why do you not? Why is that joke lost on you? But you don't get the show. On me? It's not lost on me. Currently at DraftKings, Metal Archmedia is plus 380 to get a new contract from DraftGangs. Is it that good? Are you sure? Really?

That sounds like value to me. Checked it this morning. Yeah, I would have thought it was a lot. 380. I would have been sure that was a longer shot than that. Knowing the innards of the business, having some insider trading information that Tony's Top 5 isn't good enough. The Dan Levochart, their Levochart show with Stu Gotz. Celebrating their 20th anniversary with a 45 part audio documentary about itself.

And when they get there, say hello to Parakeet Cortez for me and then tell Parakeet to say

hello to Art Brails. This is the Don Lebatar Show with the Stugarts. A wonderful gift. Thank you. I appreciate it. Mike, sure. Before you leave here, I did want to get your thoughts on the Aaron Judge baseball that was dropped in center field during the world series it went for forty three thousand five hundred ten dollars at auction and i've got to assume that was purchased by a red sox fan correct or it has to be purchased by someone who is an enemy of the yankees has a lot of money to spend and wants a good joke correct i i mean i I bid on it.

I'll tell you that much. I dropped out way before it got to where it got to, but I did bid on it. So yeah, it's possible it's a Red Sox fan. My guess though would be that it's probably like the Guggenheim family that owns the Dodgers who want to put it on display in Dodger Stadium. That would be my actual guess.

But yeah, a whole lot of Red Sox fans sent me texts saying like, hey, look, look what you can buy. And a whole lot of Red Sox fans sent me texts saying like hey look look what you can buy and a whole lot Of Red Sox fans. I know we're bidding on it Do you have any cool memorabilia or anything that you you want out there like so David Sampson bought? Sunglasses owned by David Bowie. I believe And Elton John do you have anything like that? Are you normal? It was it wasn't George Michael. Oh, yeah, George Michael I'm sure it's David Bowie, too

I'm I'm more normal. Although I do have some I have some 2004 This bat behind me is a David Ortiz bat from the 2004 season So I have stuff like that that was actually a gift my friend drew got that for me as a present But I do have some stuff like that. I don't I'm not like fetishistic about like Someone's sunglasses like I you know know, like I like David Bowie. I wouldn't buy a pair of David Bowie's sunglasses at an auction. I do buy some baseball stuff as like, you know,

stuff that's meaningful to me. Mostly Red Sox stuff from 2004. Is there anything David Sampson can do to build a bridge to a relationship with you? Yeah, sure. He can change his entire view of the world and how it operates uh... i think you might have a good talking might take a minute appreciate your time uh...

uh... man on the inside on that's like says still uh... it's still a giant it's still a juggernaut is netflix giving you any information of what a hollywood titan you are literally while i was uh... doing my metalic media observations is announced it's been picked up for season two so it's good timing i can announce that you're officially look at that some pretty and news that i decided that's what i decided another

year of work in a difficult hollywood gets old after a while i think people laugh at the burden of carrying around ted dancin in his late seventies it's all very hard to do that he would take time out to write for our show is a genuine birthday gift thank you sir as is your friendship my seeing you happy birthday dan congratulations on the greater everybody yes that is in that that you might hear not dead and i think you know i'm not dead. Can you guys get

for me? It's great. It's a heartwarming tale. It's got a dark underbelly but my birthday. You're not yet dead but we're careening dangerously down the path. You look not a day under 56. Can you guys get for me? Speaking of that, speaking of sad people limping through their retirements I want to show you some video that I don't know how Stugats felt about it but I will ask the group how should you feel about Mark Gasnow used to own the record for sacks in a season in the NFL and then Michael Strahan broke that record in a game where a lot of people suspected that Brett Favre gave Michael Strahan the sack by you know just rolling into him on a fake handoff that should have been a handoff and just rolling into Strahan and giving away Mark Gassano's sack record. It should be

noted that Favre and Strahan had had before that sack a long friendship throughout the NFL throughout their careers. And the play looked suspicious it's just weird for Brett Favre not to try to get around somebody just flopped out right in front of Strahan and Gastineau is this a card show they're at? We've all seen like man oh man Stu Gatz it's kind of strange to see that Aaron Rodgers everything he's become publicly has been sort of a short-circuiting of who he used to be publicly in five years brett farvin retirement has torn asunder everything he used to be thought of by america when on monday night he do he played a heroic football game after you know

suffering and grieving the death of his late father and everything since then has been like pain addiction and stealing from Mississippi and texting your penis to a woman. Like it's all been. It's been bad. Yeah, it's been 15 years of terrible. And so here they are just signing to make money, I guess. And is Gaston working on a documentary?

Is he working on a 30 for 30? Is this why he's being followed around? This is part of a preview for the 30 for 30. So there there's a 3430 that ESPN is doing on the SAC exchange not on the jet just on the SAC exchange Gaston O'Lions Abdul Salam that crew and so this is part of that this is him at a memorabilia show Brett Favre happens to be so let you guys tell me how you just feel about this because I recoiled with a certain it wasn't even the awkwardness it just the whole thing made me sad you tell me a long time ago I saw you right how you doing you fell

down for him I'm gonna get my sack back I'm gonna get my sack back dude you probably would hurt me well I don't don't care. You hurt me. You hurt me. You hear me? Yeah, I hear you. You really hurt me. You hurt me, Brett. We gotta get back to this, Brett. I'm sorry. That's good work by that card guy. His handler there doing some teamwork.

I don't think this is going well. Hey Brett, we gotta get out of here. It's my job now to handle. I'm the handler. What does he mean by I wanna get my sack back? Did he want Brett to let him sack him right there? He wants the record back. He feels like the record is his

and it was given to Michael Strahan by Brett Favre. He almost says it in a way like, if you let me sack you right now, we'll be good. What? What? What? I had the same impression as Chris, but I was thinking like he would make Brett Favre lie down

and then get back up and be unsacked from spray hand. I wish that Brett Favre hadn't been the combination of both awkwardly mortified and not knowing if this person in front of him was serious to have had the comedic timing to be like, okay, and then just like fold folded out at his knees, here, I'll let you sack me here among these packer helmets here.

So we good? I think he took it the way that we did because he does say, I think you'd hurt me. Like he thought that Gastineau was making a joke of I'd like to sack you right now. Like, oh man, you'd hurt me. And then this handler stepped in and did his job. I told you Stugats that I saw on one of these,

I don't know whether it was rich and shameless, or one of these things that you watch when you need 24 minutes of empty calories. I saw the promoter for Mark Gastineau's boxing career, Richie Parker, I believe was his name, and how he tried to become Don King by, among other things, poisoning one of Gastineau's opponents because that opponent was clearly going to beat Gastineau

and ruin Gastineau's chance of being the big white hope in boxing after the sack exchange. It is an amazing story. And Gastineau is mad that Favre gave Straya the sack? While his manager was out here killing his opponents or trying to kill them with poison, allegedly. What are you shrugging your shoulders about, Lucy? Allegedly.

You can understand that, though, from Gastineau, right? Like, that's all he has. Mark Gastineau had the sack record. He has nothing else. That's what he has. And he feels like Brett Farve gave it to Michael Strahan. I understand. Even though T.J. That's what he has. And he feels like Brett Favre gave it to Michael Strahan. I understand. Even though T.J. Watt broke the record.

I understand getting your identity from your work. I understand getting your identity from your one great achievement. But yes, it made me sad to see Mark Gascono limp through his retirement to want Brett Favre to fix that for him. Right. I think I feel uncomfortable by the whole video, right?

I don't like Brett Favre as a person. Right. I don't, like this record happened way before I was born and Strahan broke it like when I was, I don't know, 10. So I don't have any connection with it, so just watching it, like both of them are like sad and unhappy and it just makes me uncomfortable. There's a lot of sadness there. You heard it?

It's Gaston O'Limping around. I feel bad for him. It's Brett Forbes presents. You hear me? And they're at a memorabilia show. That party's just like, you hear me, man? Yeah. You hear the words I'm saying?

Mm-hmm. Sad. And you don't even know. You hurt me. I want that sack back. But when he says you hear me, are you wondering whether he's just asking Brett? Hello, Brett.

Brett, do your ear, at our age, how's your? You hear me? How's your? Can you hear me, are you wondering whether you're just asking Brett, do your ear at our age, how's your hearing? Can you hear me? How's your hearing, huh? He's like, yeah man, I hear you. It's like my father? I feel bad. Now I feel bad. Yeah, it's rough.

But I also, I don't know. Well put. Jess. You broke the record. I feel bad too, like I don want to make fun of Mark Gasnow Like I don't know he looks like an Elvis impersonator like these are things you don't want to say Lucy feel bad Lucy you can't break character like that. You can't sneeze because you know, I was giggling at what Billy said I didn't say it. I would know this is an audio medium too. So that wasn't very helpful play another Christmas song

medium too so that wasn't very helpful. Play another Christmas song. 2, will you please get down? 2, will you please just get down? Jeez. He's throwing a pick not just once or twice, but three times in a must-win game, Jesus Christ. Sue, will you please get down? Sue, will you please get down? Sue, will you please just get down? Josh Allen's winning non-stop, he's the best we've ever seen We've ever seen And Dan once thought he wasn't good All that take was just obscene It might be worse than two gods on the cheap Oh, you better watch out, you better not try To tackle anyone too, or please don't die

Too, or will you please get down? Too, or Will you please get down? Will you please get down? Will you please just get down? Come on, Tua! Wow! Good job, Jimmy. Was that cast to no singing? Thank you.

Not good enough? Not a Christmas song. Not a Christmas song. So come on. Keep going to work. I want Scott frosty the snowman Someone already did it. It had a little more boss in it a little more spring Working on it that was my internal monologue though watching the dolphins play it was it wasn't as Christmasy It was more horrific. It was more, you know, blood-curdling screams of anguish that had no holiday spirit in them.

It's just like, Tua, get down, it's not worth it! You got 12 points, Tua, you're on the road, you're playing Houston on a bike, you're not winning this one! We've seen this game for many years before you, Tua, the whole thing's haunted! He's throwing a pick, not just once or twice, but three times in a must-win game, Jesus Christ. It's Tyra Kill's fault, clearly. The investigation showed.

You said the investigation showed that Tyra Kill is washed. No. That's what you said. I didn't. You didn't say that. You blamed it on Tyra Kill. You blamed it. Do we actually know? It would be great to know today if all three interceptions were Tyreek Hill's fault.

According to at CK Parrot, they were. You're throwing it to your best player in the vicinity of your best player and even though Stingley's the one intercepting the ball with one great play and another that didn't even have to be great because you were confused as to why it is the two of us confused because you've gotten used to his historic accuracy

How is it and I'm no NFL player? I will never I'm not gonna pretend to be but your body feels like 15 weeks and it feels like it I'd never even be a punt returner But how is it that we're still not on the same page so often? Like that still seems to happen a lot where the Dolphins just aren't on the same page so often. Like it still seems to happen a lot where the Dolphins just aren't on the same page and something seems like an open interception and they're like, well it wasn't to his fault,

someone wasn't where they're supposed to be. It's like we're three years into this. They do have a lot of pages, confusing pages, probably more so than other offenses. You know who normally gets people on the same page? Coaches. The thing that you guys do though that makes it a little bit hard here right because I in some ways do marvel at how our crew of people would

go if right now you just threw us on a field and told us hey you got 24 seconds to do anything. No no. No no wait no no I just the thing I want to say to you when Aaron Rodgers goes to Lazard and you see that when davante adams is out there and he's got his time it all that looks a little different that was a little different than what i saw that the beginning of the season all if i give those guys reps they they seem to have over thousands of throws something that not everyone has tyree killen to a should have that by now

when i watched the dolphin offense it is so precise and what they're trying to do is I need the most accurate quarterback ever to throw this within 2.1 seconds going through his three reads and make sure he doesn't get concussed and this timing has to be perfect because otherwise wait till you see what it looks like with every other quarterback so this is how we're doing it has to to be perfect and up, three throws are bad. Three throws from the most accurate quarterback ever. Terrible game.

Horseshit game, Tua. Thank you. Tua, will you please get down? You got here. Right now, my friends over at Simply Safe are extending their massive Black Friday deal for our Leviton Show listeners.

This is the Don Lebatar Show with the StuGats. Thank you for mentioning Alan Lazar because I felt like you're going to do this again and play this game again where we don't mention the listener league presented by Smirnoff. You can join every week, join GBS weekly contest, dkng.co.slash. Smirnoff presented by Smirnoff, the world's number one vodka. Please drink responsibly. I had Alan Lazar yesterday and I will admit that was my garbage player that I got for like $3 so that I could get all the good players for the rest of the monies that we had there. Dan, Dan, that was my garbage player that I got for like $3 so that I could get all the good players for the rest of the monies

that we have there. Dan, who was your roster? We'll go over that after. I didn't do it this week. What? Really? Why? It's such a good week last week. I didn't do it the week before,

but I never checked my record the week before. Oh, you gots to. Do it for next week now so you don't forget. It's fun, fun time had while. Last week I finished in 59th place, I had 185 points, this week would've gotten me in the money. But it didn't because I had the likes of Alan Lazard getting me zero points.

I had Mack Hollins getting me 1.7 because he can't just run into straight line into the end zone when he has, you know, had a steam ahead of him. And then I had Derek Henry getting me 6.7 points. Disgraceful. But guess what, I'm coming back next week stronger than ever. And next week, I will finish.

I'm not gonna give you a place because then I don't do it. You guys are like, you're an idiot. You say every week you're gonna win. So I will finish. I will finish. And that's an accomplishment. Good. gkng.co slash sprit.

Yes, Jess, Super Bowl licks. Yes, Santa Claus is coming. Lucy, can you please tell me about this TikTok drama that you're saying you want to start a new segment every week TikTok drama of the week? We've only got like a month left before they get rid of the app. In our endless pursuit for trying to strive to get younger as a show,

what is the TikTok drama of the week? So I'm going to present this drama to you all. And then you will pick based off of the information that I shared with you what side you were on. Okay. So the two parties are Brianna Chicken Fry and Grace O'Malley. Oh boy. So Brianna Chicken Fry dated Zach Bryan who's a country singer.

Do not get that confused with Luke Bryan who's's a country singer. Do not get that confused with Luke Bryan, who's also a country singer. Or Luke Holmes. And don't get confused with Zach Brown, who's also a country singer, who sang a song called Chicken Fried. They're separate. So Zach Bryan and Brianna Chicken Fry were dating.

They just recently broke up and it was nasty. Okay, Brianna came out and was like, he's the worst, he was horrible to me and it sounds like he was pretty terrible. She and Dave Portnoy formed one of the most popular podcasts in America, at least in part talking about all this. Yes, so yes and Josh Richards is on that podcast as well. So Grace O'Malley is Brianna Chicken Bride's best friend of 15 years And it's clear that they had some problems

between Zach Brian because Grace didn't like Zach because Zach was not a very good guy. And it's very clear that Grace called that correctly. So last week, Breonna and Grace had a podcast together and Breonna post something being like, hey guys, like Plan Bree is coming back, but it's gonna come back in a different way. It's called Plan Bree.

That's their podcast. Great name. I get it. And then Grace O'Malley came out and said, because they were on the podcast together, I didn't know that our podcast was coming back without me. She learned on the internet? You didn't tell me.

She learned on the internet, so she went on her Instagram story and said, I was blindsided. Best friends for 15 years and you don't tell me that. Also, Breonna Chickenfryry had to sleep overnight before with all the people who worked on Plan Bree, and had all of them unfollow Grace on Instagram. I know, it's crazy.

And then, oh my goodness, Brianna goes on her podcast with Dave Portnoy and does a tell-all where she just shits on her friend for like 45 minutes, being like, I gave her everything, I got her this job, I had her move in with me, I've done all of these things for her and she never supports me online and it's always everybody loves Grace and they all hate me

and Grace has been silent about the whole matter. Except for she said one thing, because she does stand up now where she was like, I feel like we're going through a divorce, a divorce of 15 years, and we're letting the kids decide who they wanna live with, because all the fans are now picking sides between the two of them, and Grace hasn't spoken publicly,

but it is hot gossip, everybody is talking about it online, we don't know, are you team Chicken Fry or O'Malley? Chicken Fry, also not her real last name, just in case you were wondering. Wow. Really? What's the origin of Chicken Fry? It not her real last name. Just in case you were curious. It's not. Really? What's the origin of Chicken Fry? It doesn't say it on her birth certificate.

But I think Grace's name is really Grace's name. The question that they're really asking here is what do you do when your best friend doesn't like who you're dating? Well, can I add to the story? Can I put an extra piece of evidence here? The breakup that was in question was also made public on Instagram and Chicken Fry said that she was not expecting

it and was blindsided by said breakup and then went and did the same thing to Grace. The very same thing. And now Breanna's been on her podcast, she's been crying and she's like, Grace doesn't stand up for me online. I know she hated Zach, but like, I never brought Zach around. But it seems like she did bring Zach around.

And she even said that Zach and Grace got in a fight at her birthday party. It's time for us all to pick. Who do you use? Team Brianna Chicken Fry or Team Grace O'Malley? It's not a secret balance. Any more questions. This was Zach Brian, right?

Yes, but they're broken up. He went on Raya the day after they broke up. That's how everybody found out. and Raya is a celebrity dating app Yeah, and Morgan Wallen is the one that threw the chair Morgan Wallen threw the chair and Zach Brian got really mad at Rihanna chicken fry for singing Morgan Wallen song in front of her Is Morgan really going to jail for seven days? It's like a rehab or something. It's a cup of coffee. It's probably good for him. Chris Cody Do you think that we have anywhere in our library

the one time that we explored this question? Because I thought it was a fairly amazing. We did this already? We did, something like this. Wait, who did you pick? Chicken Fry or O'Malley? I don't have that image. Has that changed?

I will give you guys an answer to that question in a second. But I'm going the way back machine. Choose wisely. So one time, I don't know why this was, we were at Dania Highlight and a group of men came to us seeking some sort of advice about a friend they had who was marrying a woman that none of them liked. And they were asking us how do we go about telling our friend that we don't like the woman that he's married and that it's a bad decision. All of us agree on this.

How do we go about doing this? And so, I didn't know how to answer that question, but the next day we had on a guest on our show who joined us and said as if he'd been waiting for the question all his life. This is what you do. You get all the friends together. You select one friend. You send one friend in to say it one time and one time only to your friend. It's the only time that you mention it on behalf of all of your friends. You get in and out, you select the best friend to do it. That answer was coming from Lamar Odom, who surely was getting all that advice about the Kardashians and ignored it.

I'm guessing. I can't believe that Lamar Odom was the person who had considered this particular thing when uh... when he ended up not months later in trapped by this but i choose chicken fry because you know i'd like a little more and i was the answer he says on our now i think you got the people confused i chose on our good good choice you distracted me with a chicken fry you understand that i don't want fried chicken that's a lot of understand You understand that it- No, he once fried chicken, Lucy. You misunderstood.

That's correct. That's correct. But that's not her real last name. That's right. That's not legal. You don't know why we're calling her chicken fry or why. You do know why she has one of the most popular podcasts in America with Portnoy.

Yeah, so she was like a TikTok influencer. So she got really, really big on TikTok. She was pretty funny, did like relatable content. Then she got hired by Barstool and she's been like kind of their shining star for the last few years. She's brought a huge audience. And so when she got to Barstool, she wanted to do her podcast with her best friend, Grace.

So Grace came with her, but now she's like, I gave Grace everything and she's like not even grateful. But then she went on another podcast this week with Alex Earl and said, Zach Bryan did a few nice things for me and then he would always throw them back in my face. Like you don't wanna be around someone like that. But she did that to Grace.

She's doing exactly what she got mad at Zach for doing. Bracks and Barrett's girlfriend, Alex Earl? Yeah. What? What about for Strepo? We're all connected. I did not realize we were gonna get another Barrius reference today.

What are we gonna do without TikTok, Dan? I am so, I'm screwed. Lucy, seriously, people who are addicted, the most addicted to TikTok are very worried about the fact that they'll hand over all of their information to China in exchange for being able to continue feeding the addiction.

So the problem is, is that there's someone in this room to blame. My Instagram reels aren't very good because somebody keeps sending me Christian influencer videos and it's ruined my algorithm. Roy. Keep my name out your mouth. Stu.

Jeremy. It was Stu, huh? What an upset that Stu Gotz was sending you TikToks and Instagram videos on Christian influencers. You say that like, we're supposed to not be okay with China just taking all of our information, but like, if they want it, they're gonna get it anyways, right? So like, I might as well consent and still keep TikTok. Why are we okay

with America taking it? Well, that's what I'm saying, I might as well like, if they're gonna have it, at least let me have TikTok out of this. I trust in either government. China, I'm Team Grace, now you know. Same. I wonder who China's team is.

I read a memoir by a former Notre Dame president, Father Hesburgh, that was written in 1991, where he wrote that, hey, by the way, everyone already has all of our data. This was in the 90s, they were like, the ship sailed on privacy. He wrote that in the 90s. They were like, the ship sailed on privacy. He wrote that in the 90s. I don't know if this applies or not.

Look at me, boo. Because I read a book. I read like three books a week. Three a week? I don't know if it applies. A week? It wasn't three. Three books a week?

Not your life? It sounds painful. The reading of the book, it was the subject matter 30 years ago by Father, it was the name drop of Father Hesburgh that I didn't think, I thought it was the weakest use ever of the look at me, Louie. I don't know him personally. I did go to his funeral though. He's not alive.

Zach Brian went to Grace's grandma's funeral. What? Howdy folks, it's Mike. And guess what? It's Miller time. The holiday season brings around lots of joy and also lots of family, lots of family gatherings at your home.
