You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. This is the Dunluba Tarshou with the Stugat's Podcast. Things are moving fast and crazy. We undercover the biggest news story of our time and it is not Trump. It's that the livable atmosphere is deteriorating at an alarming rate. And we have done nothing in our leadership about climate change that would make the biggest story in the world, the apocalyptic news, that the world is ending. And livable air and we're gonna be fighting over water very soon, excellent, and food, water and food.

We under-report that story, as we talk a lot about Trump, and so we get fall behind and aliens. We did talk about them yesterday because we have discovered now and the government has acknowledged, yes, there are other life forms in the vast earth. And in the middle of this, Molly Youngfast joins us and she is the podcast host of Fast Politics, Molly Zhang Fast.

I keep getting that wrong and I'm going to keep apologizing. Thank you, Molly, for being on with us because I believe, as slate believes, that you are presently covering in the Trump indictment, something that's slate rights, this federal indictment just handed down by special counsel, Jack Smith, is not the not only the most important indictment by far a former president, Donald Trump. It is perhaps the most important indictment ever handed down to safeguard American democracy and the rule of law in any U.S US court against any one. Do you agree with that assessment that we can't be so numb to news and immune to the way

that this man just has a million water gates to not understand that presently the former president of the United States is someone who can only beat the justice of America by knocking down democracy, by having the checks and balances not work, by staying out of jail because he has fomented so much division that he just topples democracy. It's the only way he can win. Are you of the same assessment or do you think differently? So, I would say this is a really interesting indictment because this is the first indictment where about when Trump tried to change the election, tried to overturn the election, tried

to, you know, to fake electors, fake electors, this is the stuff that really was kind of much more detrimental to democracy, right? There are other cases and maybe this Georgia case too, which is coming up will also involve the fake electors, but it's different. And it's also a federal case, which makes it a much bigger deal and is opposed to the documents case, which is going to be tried in Florida.

This will be tried in the District of Columbia. But are we at a spot with this because Trump, you know, we're having ridiculous conversations about it's going to be Trump and Biden again and is the only way that Trump can get out of being arrested is becoming president again. Like this is, we're dealing with such absurdities here that it can't be that this indictment is just shrugged your shoulders. He's not having any trouble sleeping at night because he knows he could just topple democracy and win this thing, especially if there's another insurrection, especially

if there's more violence. Like that isn't what all of this that we're presently covering is news. Isn't it what it portends? Yeah, it's not good. I mean, you know, this is not a position you want to be in in a functioning democracy. I mean, you have a certain kind of like Italy in the 1980s, Borlisco, anything going where he wants to get reelected, so he won't have to go to jail. Again, this is where we are. Look, it would have been much, much, much better for everyone. Had these charges come right away.

Had Bob Moller, you know, had one of the many, you know, had they impeached and removed him after the January 6th. But there has been a lot of political cowardice at every step. There have been Republicans, again, for Democrats, it's been a little more complicated they haven't had the votes,

but there has been a real cowardice at every point. I mean, remember, Republicans could have gotten rid of this guy after January 6th. They could have gotten rid of him after he lost. They could have gotten rid, I mean, they've had so many opportunities and at every time they've held themselves hostage and held themselves up for ransom.

And so we find ourselves, you know, in a situation here where they are now have to choose between Trump and the rule of law, right? They have to choose between Trump and democracy itself is this is a crisis completely of the Republican party's own making and they are choosing Trump, right? We're seeing this. You're seeing powerful Republicans defend Trump. Say this is a political witch hunt. Obviously, this fake electric scam is not a political witch hunt. It's a fake electric scam. And that's not how we do it in this country. So I think that there's not much to do. Now Trump will try to kick the can and to not, you know, to

push this office as much as possible. I don't know how it goes. Do you, my, uh, hello? Do you find that, you know, you say that the Republican party has, is held hostage and has made this choice? Do you see any shift with voters? Do you think this will make any difference with any of the people who have voted for them in the past or who we're planning to still like, is anything slipping? I mean, I think there are certainly Republican voters who've gotten sick of it, right? And you see this with DeSantis. I mean, they're moving on.

There's certainly some section. And you have people like, I mean, you have more people standing up the Trump than you did before, right? You have Will Hurd, you have the New Jersey governor, Chris Christie. I mean, you're seeing some amount, even, you know, Bill Barr, who is nobody's idea of a hero and Mike Pence, both of them on television saying that Trump did the wrong thing. So again, the count is, it's just, it's just such a low bar. It's such a low bar on leadership, on leading, on leading a country that's in peril, that you would be saluting Mike Pence and Christ Christie, the people who lost to this cartoon

creature who comes and threatens shit so completely, Molly, so completely, that yesterday's story, the biggest story ever involving an American president in scandal is sort of like, yeah, he can withstand it because he's flipping about democracy. He knows he can break the system. It's unbelievable. Like, it can't be that. This country can't be that. I'm not even sure that he can't,

I mean, ultimately his campaign is just trying to stay alive another day. So there is the punty tree, you know, industrial complex that has one thought about him, but in the Trump campaign, they are just trying to survive another day. So I don't know that he does survive this. I mean, look, he may win the GOP nomination, but I think that it's, I think he has not

grown the electorate. I think his game will be to try to win the electoral college again. I think that the economy is strong and Biden has done a good job. Look, it's very crazy that we're in this situation. But, you know, this was the kind of calculus that these Republicans made and they put us in it. I should point out incidentally, I didn't in introducing her that she writes a weekly newsletter for vanity fair She's a special correspondent and your latest article about Ron DeSantis you write quote no amount of donor dollars can make DeSantis MAGA Marionette

Trapsing across I one New Hampshire seem like a real human boy. How is it that DeSantis lacks such charm that everyone knows that he can't debate, debate Newsom and he's going to not out charm Trump that the greatest threat to Trump is somebody who clearly can't be Trump. Yeah, I mean, that part of that is the fault of the National Review crew and it's not my party, so I'm not going to tell them what to do. But they are just devastated. DeSantis was their man. They thought for sure that it wouldn't matter that he had no personality and that voters

wouldn't care. I mean, they're probably just do this all the time. They did this with Scott Walker. They did this with Ted Cruz. They think that there's a lane for hostile, weird Republican candidates. Why is this person yelling at me? You know, you watch the Santas talk that you watch the Santas and Iowa meeting people and saying things like, you know, the person says their name and he says, good for you. I mean, or okay, that's not how politicians are supposed to do it. So I don't know. I mean, or okay, that's not how politicians are supposed

to do it. So I don't know. I mean, those few thought leaders, quote unquote, and I use quotes because they're so out of the mainstream at this point, those few GOP thought leaders are really out of their depth. The party wants this kind of incredibly addictive Trumpism. And it's this populism, crazy populism pushed by, you know, fake

billionaire and they like it. So I don't know that the Republicans have much of a shot here. It is still crazy to think, though, I thought for some reason, I guess I'm naive, right? That this country and the people who live in it would value just a little more. No matter what your politics are, because I don't understand some of this stuff. Go ahead, please, I'm sorry.

I would say, I would give yourself a little more credit and say, actually, we have seen in these last elections that people have voted on democracy. They have voted on choice. They have voted on a lot of the issues that you and I hold dear. So I wouldn't say that. I mean, I would say if you look at Wisconsin, there was a Wisconsin is a very cut down the middle state. They reelected the Democratic governor. They elected a progressive Democratic judge who's pro-choice. I mean, you're seeing

a lot of people saying, no, we don't like this. We don't like the racism. We reject it. And so I do think that there are a lot of really good people in this country. And they are actually pretty serious. I mean, you know, in Ohio, they have this prop one on the ballot on April, on August 8th, there's going to be Prop 1. And it's basically making the threshold higher for Ohioans, Ohioans to put in ballot initiatives because the liberal ballot initiatives are so popular. So they're making the threshold 60%. And the turnout has been humongous.

So I do think there are a lot of regular people in purple states who are not happy with this and who are getting out there and making their voices heard. So you're saying to me, and this is probably the proper perspective that as I'm appalled that this would gather, that fast is that that authoritarians threatening democracy would gather any support. Isn't the America I thought I was living in? You're telling me, well, no, a lot of people feel that way. Most voters feel that way. And if you take away a woman's rights

and racism and run on a platform of, yeah, not, these are okay. I want the, the proud boys as my base. No, that's not, that's aligned too far. Voters, you know, matter how much you gerrymander, no matter how much you claim fake voting voters will say, no, it can't be the fraud real estate guy who's clearly a criminal toppling not just journalism, but just democracy because he says he can. That's my take. I think you're going to be surprised.

I think you're surprised in the midterms 2020. I think, look, we all have to worry and we're Democrats, so we do worry. That's what we do. But I think most people don't like this kind of populism and I think most people don't like women losing the right to have an abortion. And I think that you know, you're seeing lots and lots of people pregnant women

having real horror stories. And I think ultimately people want their doctors deciding their health care and not their charges. Fast politics is the podcast. And Molly, thank you for the time. I should tell the people that if you want to make this something that is bite-sized, if all of the things in America that are troubling you in politics and with the lack of leadership, fast politics in the title suggests you can make it a little bite-sized for them, right? So it's, let's, you're trying to make it less complicated and less

shrill than I am screaming from the mountaintops. What the fuck is the matter with all you people? Don't you understand democracy's under threat? Really an orange real estate agent from New York, who's clearly a criminal. Really? That's what we're doing. She'll do it more peacefully than that. Thank you, Molly.

Thank you. Don Lebertard. Why do you carry around $2,000 unless you're paying off a reverie or something? Whoa. What happened? What happened? What happened?

I didn't imply that Doc Rivers is like a saint. One of the great coaches of all time. Mm-hmm. Still gots. Put on the pole, Guillermo. First of all, his Greg Cody as a journalist, spectacularly reckless, put that on a pole first, and then secondarily put on the pole as well is

Doc Rivers paying referees VCC Don LeBatars show with this two gods If you've been listening to the show this week I think you know that I am in a very vulnerable emotional state. I probably should not be working. I should probably apologize to you in advance for whatever it is that the rest of this month brings because I have to go properly grieve the death of someone who I regard as both always my little brother, always my little brother,

always a kid. I always saw him as a kid, but I also feel like I raised him a bit. So the amount of pain that I am in shouldn't be working right now. But in the middle of that, I have genuine chaos trying to run our company because I can't control anything actually. And Stugots is a scumbag and is working for WFAN now. And it evidently started with an F-bomb, the guy who's entitled to run media at a great salary and not come and earn his salary here in a time of need. This is where it began. But, Stu Cots is here. Great. Maybe he could come in and, I'll bring you over to the whole of your points. Hello, sir. Hi.

Are you here, the girlding? 345, hot students? Yes, sir. So like a case, f***ing, f***ing, f***ing, I knew that was not that dirty. I just said, you don't want to tell him he's on it. I knew you on the radio, I'm on the air right now.

Okay, excellent work. So he started by an F-bomber on WFA, and it's just perfect, right? Just perfect. And Billy's not here. Where's a mean? Well, he's trying to corout. This is another problem I have with a mean though, who is already threatened that oddball is being taken over by Charlotte and it should be because she's a genuine star. No, it means great. We're working so well together. Please don't mess it up, Dan. And a mean is mad at me right now because he thinks he controls the company as well. I was trying to take a call right now for arrangements for things that need to be handled

in my family. And it means like, Hey, Dan, I've been in the heat for too long here. I've been in the heat for too long. You have to come out to me. So I mean, welcome wherever it is that you are. You have found Lucas LaTuga. No, please, please, some more Stugots clips. I think that's way more compelling than me sitting here. My jeans turn into sous vide as my balls are just soaking at 9,000 degrees. What a promo though for Lucas. Tell me about, I've sent you out there to do some journalism, some reporting, some reporting. Tell me all about Lucas La sent you out there to do some journalism, some reporting, or some reporting. Tell me all about Lucas LaChua over there,

and this is your punishment for objecting on air. As cars fly by you. Yeah, tell me what, paint the scene. I've been outside, I've been outside for an hour, waiting for you guys to come in. I've been ready, I've been waiting, by the way, the torrential rains earlier earlier knocked out all the traffic lights and stuff, so as I try to cross this game, people are just whizzing by because you can't

tell people in Miami that there's no stop light, but you should stop for the deathfriens or whatever. So I get to this stupid sign which by the way is a strong three miles north of the building. Like this is not unprofitably by any stretch of the imagination. It's ridiculous. His name cannot be Lucas Lettuce. It cannot be Lucas LaTuga that cannot be that man's name. That has to be a stage name so that he can create a real estate hustle here. And just by, sell you swamp land because because he's Larry Latuga. Lucas.

Yeah, first of all, his name is Lucas. Larry Latuga sounds like a use card salesman. Lucas Latuga, look at this guy. That's a classy guy. He sells Lux living realty. Lux living. And his website is YLUKUS.com. I'm going'm gonna tell you why because I hear the name Lucas I think wealth I think aspiration I think the best of the best but you guys are sitting here calling him Larry Larry like he's wearing a cheap polyester suit ridiculous all right you have served your punishment it's too far it was too far and too hot oh no please let me walk the edgewater next maybe there's a fun billboard over there you know what John was so walking let's see

what we can discover as we walk north on this game it's a hundred and nineteen three but no we're fine we got to find some more adventure oh me doesn't do and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and right well let's do this let's promote odd ball here mean who you're feeling under appreciated this is what i would like to do because people do need to understand i do make fun of a mean but i believe his basketball now this is is a solid is any you'll find anywhere and i'd like his entertainment i really like his entertainment always willing to be the fool around here but odd ball uh... has tackleders about to tackle the story i didn't understand how to

tackle in in which I saw that LeBron James' school was shamed for math scores and was weaponized because evidently, you know, the narrative of athlete is trying to actually help a community that can use some help with the act of giving a school. Let's mock the school because it hasn't graduated in math and he students they're not teaching well or whatever the judgments are that can be made about lebron james trying to do a good thing and being shamed in today's america for it you guys what i mean you're mad because of the noise around long set up for

this promo yes well because i want to know what they're talking about what what i mean i didn't promote you correctly. No first of all. No, yes You promoted a segment that we haven't done yet. Thanks a lot. You asked me hey What do you think about this and I said hey, man? We're trying to set up some interviews We're trying to get to the bottom of this. We're trying to do this right and you literally just go and tell everybody Oh, this is what they've been working on by the way Yeah, we're like just right by the way, I'm not gonna go to Duffy's. Hmm, Duffy's all right.

We're over here trying to set up interviews with experts and Dan's like, let us know. Well, I wanna be able to talk about this intelligently and I didn't. Well, you just did. No, I didn't know what to do with the story because I'm assuming, okay, this is what I'm starting before. I'm starting on this story.

LeBron James tries to do an amazing thing. He's trying to build a school to teach kids math, but they're failing. They're failing math and none of them are passing and it's an easy way to mock LeBron James. And so I thought people around me in this time of need had researched this more than me and could explain to me if there were some cultural biases at play, is it just shitty teaching, is it the disadvantaged kids are in a disadvantage

of it's hard to learn things that are biased. I don't know what layers to this story I'm missing. Yeah, it seems like all that to me. This is an indictment on the educational system in this country. That's just my opinion on this. The I Promise School takes literally kids who tested in the bottom 20%. Right? So it's not like a regular inner-city school

that has kids that don't test well, and then might have some kids that test great. They're literally taking the kids that the education system has given up on. And they're trying to get them up to speed. So the measures of success for them can't be the same as it is for a regular public school because these kids don't have the cover or the subsidy of kids that are doing well in school. Right, and also there are so many ways you can interpret the numbers that

they delivered against other schools or charter schools. And it takes, you know, I we want to talk to someone who really knows this stuff and has studied this and understands where these statistical discrepancies could be because right now, you know, I look at these numbers as a, you know, someone tells jokes about sports. I feel like there are tons of layers here and I don't even know what those layers are quite yet. I mean, I am very much here for the new character. A mean goes societal on your ass while walking to a bar through traffic on biscane without

traffic lights. If you want to give me some other profanity while trying to carry to cross the street on any subject matter of your choosing, you could prove your worth to metal-lark media here. Well, first of all, prove my worth. Jesus Christ. Are you guys only having to be working on every show

on the network? I'm surprised I don't want to go, Joe. Might as well do something with him, too. Santa Files available to you. Montgomery company. Cinem file. Montgomery company. Don don't get hit by a car.

Because Miami Jesus be careful. We can all agree. It would be more alarming if they were passing kids to save face. Like it just it feels like they're being honest with the result and yeah, it's a tough thing to talk about, but it would be it would be a bigger story if they were passing kids just to save face. They're being honest at least. I mean, you're, they can't, they, sorry, go ahead. You can't do that because these are standard standardized state testing.

So it's not like the school is testing their kids and self-reporting. LeBron's got power though. If you want to, if you want those results changed, I mean, come on. I mean, you're, you're on the entire back LED screen. It looks awesome. That's great, man. That's well, I'm, I'm so happy that as my internal body temperature reaches 112 degrees, you guys get to watch it real time.

Thank, thank you so much. I mean, talk about Steph Curry. I mean, what I would like for you to do. The documentary and he's a boring person. Oh my God. Wow. All right, yes. Okay, fine.

Is that a news flag? No, yes. Wait a minute. A meme says sacrilegious things about a modern-day icon while walking through traffic on his way to a bar. Go. Yes, Steph Curry, great player, boring guy. And his documentary was boring as hell.

And it was basically about college. And that's cool, but I didn't want to know what Steph Curry and college. I wanted to know Steph Curry as a kid. And I wanted to know Steph Curry as an NBA player. Oh, by the way, if you're talking to people about how hard your route was to the NBA, like, you might want to mention that your dad was an NBA player. Just throw that in there. Just maybe, maybe, you know, Ab Hannon.

But, and also, you got a brother who plays an NBA. Do we want to talk to him? Or, nah, and that's fine. Now, sit this one outside. We don't need to even know that you exist. Boring. I can't believe that shocking take from a mean now, Hassan. This is a, you are a league ambassador.

You're supposed to love your sport. You went viral yesterday. You got aggregated because you're like, stop shitting on the NBA. And here's Steph Curry, adorable athlete for the modern times. And you said all he does is make boring shit and is boring while walking to a bar.

Well, I mean, I'm not talking about his basketball. I support his basketball. talking about his basketball. I support his basketball. I love his basketball. His basketball is very exciting. But his content making, F, oh my God, F. And F, he says while walking past the garage of some sort.

When's the last time you saw a Steph Curry interview that was funny or engaging or interesting or different? Or A is one, one way he changes the tone of his voice. Like, when he's not just talking like this all the time, like I just took a perk set and perhaps a Xanax, but I'm gonna fight it while I talk to you about all the answers to your questions. My name is Steph Curry and even the way I talk what's me to sing. Oh, enough, Jesus. I just wanted you to have a swampy, nether region.

Vision accomplished. Down Lebatard. Mino Hasson. Stugatz. Yeah, Mino Hasson. This is the Down Lebatard show with the Stugatz. I take your knee to drink a little more. This is the D we have around here. It's starting.

It's pretty consistent. Yes, we're starting. We started a while ago with your lack of professionalism. I asked you to start the segment and you were on the verge of a belt because you've decided to come in from 120 degree heat and drink a Coca-Cola, a carbonated drink, and then be surprised when it gurgles in your mouth and you sound like you're eating, and for some reason,

Chris Cody likes that sound. It's disgusting. No, I'm more just interested in it, because everyone knows the sound I'm talking about, the sound of, oh, I just clearly ate something. I want to know scientifically, is there just more saliva in the mouth? Like, what is happening that you can hear that somebody just ate?

That's right, I got Chris in a white lab lab coat like doing experiments and stuff. Well, technically he literally turned to me and goes like scientifically it's got to be something. All this missing is you looking until microscope and looking at Charles that I've never seen a lot of mocking no answers though. The task of size is quickly before you're wake up. Get me the president CSI science by Chris Cody. I like that show. It's mocked me without any answers. I would watch it. I like that show. Just mock me without any answers. I would watch it. I would watch it.

But why are you finding that sound? That sound is disgusting. I just, I'm not like going home and listening to it with my eyes closed. Chris Cody, listen to me. It's okay. If I'm going, look, Mike, do people not see what's happening around? There are very few webbing towards, let's say, or Steven A Smith. Right, right.

If we're all kind to equal, right, there's not much of a difference between all of us. You might as well go with a guy who's from Long Island, okay? Yeah. Who's a met fan, a jet fan, okay? An Islander fan. But also a guy who will bring you $5 million in advertising because he's been doing this for 22 years.

General manager, whoever the GM of the station is, I've done your job. Program director, done your job. Gio, done your job. I've done your job, Eddie, I've done your job, update acres, I have done your job. That's what makes me so likable and relatable. They have until next Friday, hire me. I have no idea what's going on with

booms, okay? I am not trying to push him out the door. That is not my intention. I'm just telling you, if anyone wants to hire me here full time, and actually pay me, on like the next two days, I'm going to hire me here full time and actually pay me on like the next two days. I will tell you this by Friday. This is like seeing someone you're dating on a dating app. It's like watching your wife easy, your boyfriend. Dan, you don't deserve this. I thought there would be something in him. It's like, wow, he sounds different.

It's just him. He's the same, doing the exact same notes. Just everything. Lucy, it's not like seeing someone you're dating on a dating app. It's like seeing someone you're dating on a date, actively. Like, singing his praises and everything. You're watching someone propose. Yeah.

I think it's worse than that. I don't know if you as an older movie, Buggy Knights, but I have been for a long time the William H. Macy character who arrives every day and his wife is having sex in the driveway with a crowd around them. For him to go up there and promise advertising that he can't get metal-ark media, like for him to go up there on the air and $5 million worth. Like where is that money still got to? We could use it as a company that keeps hiring people that you own a piece up.

Like what are you doing? What do you, what, I, maybe he just means in the New York area because he, like he, he flexes New York bonafides. Very promising. But why would you go on the most popular sports radio station in New York and, and lobby for a job that overtly that you're promising them advertising through your sales lies that you cannot deliver.

Boogie Nightstand, amazing movie. You saw it? Yeah. Come on. That's a small indie play. That's a big tracking shot. Every time I talk to Jessica and Tony, anybody under 30 and I'm mentioning a movie from 20 years ago, they haven't heard of it.

Well, I'm mentioning a movie from 20 years ago they haven't heard of it. Well, I'm over 30. No, wow. The star of oddball. Charlotte Wilder, do you have any more information from the street? I mean of about Larry Lichuga. His name is Lucas. Lucas Lichuga. How many times are you going to get fined today? Why Lucas dot? I feel like put it it on the poll, Jude, you're at Levitard show. Better name for a real estate huckster. Lucas LaTugah or Larry LaTugah. Why is he a huckster? Because he works in Miami.

Lucas, if you got any deals on real estate, luxury real estate, I'm here for it. Why Lucas.com. It has to be luxurious, Lucas LaTugah. I've got his, is a, are you on his website right now? He's in and now I'm going to why Lucas, which you want first.

Why Lucas? You know what, while we're here, let's update some polls. Joey? Yeah. This week's polls are brought to you by Dollar Shave Club, Epic Razors,

Epicly Affordable, find them in stores or online. Is Larry Lechuga a good name for a food truck? 60% says yes. Is this only funny to Spanish people? The word Lachuga lettuce is a funny word. That can't be that man's name. He is successfully advertised by calling himself Larry lettuce.

Dan, I have a question for you. You think he chose that? You think he'd like, do you really think that he wasn't just stuck with Larry? Lucas, his name isn't even Larry And also his website is absolutely stunning Why Lucas dot com wow Sunset but with dudes

What the show the show is telling sunset. He also looks five foot six. He's short Meet Lucas has a video of him on his phone And then he has a tab on his website called website. Does he ever not look cool? I mean, jeez. That's a cool looking dude, man. I hope that I can one day live a Lucas LaTuga lifestyle. Maybe live in one of these condos.

You can get the Lucas LaTuga app though. I'll get the app. Look, hey, look, I, Lucas, I will do promo for you. Oh, there it is. In for you. There it is. In return for, I don't even need a place to stay. Just a place to crash every once in a while. You already have done pro, he owes you money. You've done promo for him.

This should absolutely result in a mean bringing in $5 million. That's right. Because he's willing to stay at Larry Latuga's luxurious homes, labyrinths, and do the real estate, suckering that everyone in South Florida is doing, where these people are all phony, con people. I'll do a whole content series for all Lucas, man. I'll stay at one of the places. I'll let people know how cool and fun it is.

Why don't you wanna live here? You could be doing this cool, fun stuff too. And then I'll move to the next place and then we keep doing it over and over. Oh, the else, sir. The else is one of the buildings. Oh, how about that? Way.

We'll start here. Should seeing Stugat's fake laugh at Geo, make Dan feel like his wife is cheating on him. 91% say yes. It is, it is really anxious. It's, it is the foulest thing. Why is he out there telling everybody hire me by frying it? He's got a contract. Is there not compete now? You know how the Portland Trailblazes feel Dan? Have you ever had

an armpit? Have you ever had an armpit injury? Yes. 75% say no. You hold your armpit. What happened? I tore a muscle that's like right under the connective tissue between armpit and like the peck. I did that playing soccer. It was like the worst 15 minutes of my life. I had a back spasm. I was spraying my ankle and then I had a odd ball where sports expertise meets athletic experience, starring Charlotte Wilder. What else you have in the polls?

That's it for the polls, Dan. And if you haven't had enough pain this week, it's time now for Thursday Thunder. No. I love this music. It's pretty good. It is pretty good. It is time for Thursday Thunder, where we give you a winning parlay and we honestly haven't been great lately But we're gonna try to be better for you today We've been mad lately Juju Gotti has picked this one because this room has tried the last few weeks and it hasn't gone well So these are coming from Juju Gotti who is probably paying attention to sports more than we all are so I would go with him Juju is somebody who has, I believe,

the highest popularity rating at our entire universe. So him and Tim Kirkchin. So now, though, we've got to be careful, though, because when he's got the responsibility of their money on his hands, he's not afraid of this responsibility. Well, also, we just kind of slacked at doing it, and he just stepped up and... Okay, typical.

I can tack my name on if he wants and then if it loses, it's my fault. The first leg, the Atlanta Dream Moneyline Tonight, the second leg Dodgers Moneyline Tonight, and the US Women Moneyline on Sunday. Thursday slash... And the US women, Moneyline, on Sunday. Thursday, slashes, leading into Sunday, parlor. But you, Drew, did he just take the Dodgers against the A's? The Dodgers playing the A's, where they're the giant favorite, and he took them on the Moneyline, because the Dodgers have kicked the holy hell out of the A's

the last couple of days, because the A's are the worst baseball team in history. Just googling real quick Dodgers versus A's when is it? That's a good question. I'll get back to you, Dan. Thursday Thunder brought to you by our friends at Draft King Sportsbook. You can follow our parlay on the Draft King Sportsbook app. Back to you, Dano.

Thank you. I do. I've gotten to the baseball. I have. I mean, I'm watching the other day. And there's a guy for the twins, Durand, who comes out of the bullpen and he threw 101 mile an hour splitter. I'm like, that's ridiculous.

Yeah, I've never seen such a thing. I'm like, it's not, if the ball had movement in 101 miles an hour, it just wasn't 100 miles per hour. And everybody out there is at a skill level that is aesonine. It's absurd, but I can't cover baseball because a means still got complaints about the swampiness I can smell from over here because you spent 90 minutes

in the heat and then went over to Duffy's. To listen to you guys talk about. There we go. Take cover. But that has happened to me several times throughout my career. Where guys just rise or are saying or I rise at a send and I forget about the little people. Right.

I just don't. Yeah, I forget about you. Not no longer. I played that one. Yeah, that's bad production by you. We've come to get used to it on Thursdays. We already heard it. And you interrupted him to do it as well. So that's good. I mean, was in the middle of the thought full circle because that's what you guys played when I was outside. Yeah, you guys were so hot to try to play that. Not everyone.

Yes. Hey, go outside and sit. You know what? You go walk and your swampiness over to be with Larry LeTugas. Well, Lucas, I literally can't run this switchboard. If that's fine. I'm putting you in charge. Get out of here.

You can just leave. Oh, really? Yes. I don't want you here anymore. It's the same when you send them away at the end of the day. Not the whole he's doing is going home now. It's what, but I want him to walk past Larry LeChuga

as he does it. Dude, by the way, that Lucas LeChuga sign, I know now why Dan was like, oh, it's right across the street because it's on Dad's commute home. Oh. And so that's where he sees it every day. He's like, oh, it's right there. And it's not right there.

Right here. You're like, oh, I drive by there. And it's not right there. It's not right there. You're like, oh, I drive by it. So it must be right there. By the way, Dan, to add insult to injury to all this, right? I'm walking outside. I'm cars are whizzing past. I got to make sure that John Reed doesn't get hit by a car because he's filming me walking backward across the street.

And I'm really worried about this, right? Chris says, hey, I mean, you can come back now. I said, I know, I've been walking this whole time, walking back to the Elser. That's how far this thing was. But that's not the worst part. The worst part is at one of these intersections, where I'm waiting for these cars to go by

so I can cross the street. A car comes down, and as it's coming by, I see them roll their windows down. And the person driving leans over to the passenger side to the side of the highway. And looks and says, starts waving and says, boom, money! Ha, ha, ha!

Oh, no. So bad. Ha, ha, ha! Ha, ha, ha!
