This is the Don Leventor Show with the StuGuts Podcast.
This guy's gonna be co- anchoring his 21st selection Sunday, 21 of them he's got on the
resume.
It is next Sunday, 6pm Eastern time on CBS.
We are going to do our own selection Sunday show for fun.
Next Sunday live. election sunday show for fun uh... next sunday live he's also the co-founder and
editor in chief of hoops h q seth davis with us again twenty one years is crazy
i don't think he's been on since last year about this time so i will start me
obvious place are you caught up on the white
lotus sir
haha
you have named up for both amazing here is that i to hear you say that I've done 21 shows because
I'm only 26.
So obviously, I'm the doogie Howser of sports broadcasting.
You've actually named in one of the shows I actually watch.
I am not a shows guy or movie.
I'm even worse with movies.
So I've watched a few shows.
I am not caught up on White Lotus.
I am through season two.
I know we're in season three.
I've watched a couple episodes of Severance.
I have no idea what's going on, but then again,
I usually don't have any idea what's going on.
So it's all good.
Are you guys falling asleep during Severance?
I like Severance, but I keep falling.
I cannot stay awake for Severance.
There's something about the tone and the pacing of it
that is so slow
that I'm perpetually, even though I like it,
I'm perpetually falling asleep during it.
Greg?
100%, 100%, first of all, part of it is
I usually watch it at night with my wife
and I'm 54 and I'm lazy, so yeah,
by the time we get about halfway through,
I'm not off, and then I have to watch, you know,
the last 15 minutes the next morning during
My workout or something to stay caught up. So these are first-world problems for sure. I
Apologize for not responding to that. I have never watched severance
I wouldn't even have heard of it except my wife watches it because she watches everything
I watch very little TV, although I do love white lotus
Can you please explain to me whether or not you're surprised that Rick Pitino has been allowed
to climb back toward the top of the sport,
given how his last tenure ended?
No, because he can win.
You know, the ability for people to get past certain things
is directly correlated to your ability to win.
And no one can ever question Rick's ability to win.
You know, it's interesting, Dan,
the thing that he was eventually fired for
in relation to the FBI investigation
was like the biggest nothing burger of all time.
I mean, that case was an incredible waste of time,
money, energy, attention.
You know, basically these FBI agents
heard all these low-level scammers scamming each other,
and they thought they were telling the truth. So when one guy tells another, hey, man, I got
Patino, I got self, I got Laranaga, I got this guy, the FBI thinks, hey, all we got to do is move in
on those guys and they'll flip. Well, it turns out there was nothing to flip to. So the problem with
Rick was the optics of his being even tangentially linked to that case on top of the other things
that had happened, some of which were directly his fault, some of which were his fault by
responsibility. It was that accumulation. But there were other places, Kansas in particular,
basically said to the NCA, like, give us everything you got. And they stuck by Bill Self and nothing
happened to him. And he was in it considerably deeper than Rick was at the time. So there might be a little bit, I don't know what the opposite of buyer's
remorse is at Louisville with Patino, maybe fire's remorse if that's a thing. But no, I'm not surprised
because he's a great coach. And, you know, in today's era, then with the portal, you can rebuild
very quickly. And when you have a coach like Rick Patino, you got guys who want to play in the NBA.
And so they want to play for Rick Pitino.
So not surprised at all.
In college athletics, we've seen a little bit more parody in football than I guess we
anticipated.
Everyone assumed the SEC would just get stronger.
They've been challenged by the Big Ten and other schools.
But in the other sports, the SEC's financial advantage is really sticking out, particularly
men's basketball, baseball, women's basketball.
On the other side of the coin, you have the ACC, and I know this was several years in
the making. They're not top dog by a long shot anymore. And you've had NC State, which
made a final four run last year, part ways with its coach. Miami, which made a final
four run two years ago, part ways with its coach. Leonard Hamilton might've won a championship
were not for COVID over at FSU, parting ways over there. What do you make of what's happening
inside the ACC?
Are they feeling the pressure?
Well, I think it's a great question.
I think they thought they were above it
or at least didn't have to do it.
It's a different type of culture, different type of setup.
I mean, there are some private schools inside the ACC.
There are public schools that are not necessarily
as invested in that, even in the concept of college athletics.
Even Syracuse is a private school, it's big.
But let's be honest, in the SEC,
some of these places have been operating like this
for a very long time.
So this is just a matter of paperwork.
Now everything is above board.
And it's the old saying, adapt or die.
And the ACC might have a storied history,
but it's past history.
And if you're not forward-looking, you're in trouble.
I mean, for example,
North Carolina has been struggling again.
And North Carolina just in the last couple of weeks
hired a general manager.
I did not know that they didn't have a general manager.
I kind of assumed they did.
John Shire was the first person in sports to even think of this position at
the college level. Now, everybody not only has one, but you have to have one. News this
morning that Steph Curry is going to be the assistant GM at Davidson. I mean, all he has
to do is cut one check and his job is over. So it's a great life lesson really for teachers and parents and all of us and business leaders, especially that you you cannot be stuck in past thinking.
You cannot think about, well, this is the way we've always done it.
It's like that old Wayne Gretzky saying, you know, what made Gretzky great isn't that he skied skated to the puck.
He skated where the puck was going.
The ACC skated to where the puck used to be.
And now they're paying the price.
They have a lot of catching up to do.
You mentioned Steph Curry and NIL.
James Harden says that he is going to spend a lot of money to make Arizona State even
better than Arizona State already is.
How much of this is going to be a future influx
where NBA guys can have a role in making sure
that they take care of their alma mater's?
It's where we are, man.
I mean, it's just the reality.
And it's funny you mentioned about Miami
having fallen on hard times,
but when they made the final four,
they had their own version of Steph Curry named John Ruiz.
I think he's a Miami grad, but he was a Miami booster and a billionaire guy.
And he gave them a lot of money to buy players that helped them get to the Final Four.
And then he and his business fell in hard times.
There was a SEC investigation and all kinds.
And so he's not paying the piper anymore.
And look what happened in Miami.
But the real coming change, Dan, is a genuine revenue sharing
model where beginning in July, assuming this case settlement
gets approved, which looks like the judge is going to do,
every school now can spend up to, they're not required,
up to $20 million to give to their athletes.
Now, they can spend that however they want.
And it's going to be fascinating to see
how that all breaks down
Because if you're in a place like Auburn right now, which is one of the top teams in college basketball, Alabama Certainly, obviously the first dollars out the door are going to football
And so how much really is left for men's basketball and then you have all the other women's sports and this big question of how?
Title nine is going to play into it
So there's a there's a lot more unknown than known,
but the only thing we know is that
players are going to have money in their pockets.
And if you don't have money to put in your players' pockets
at a competitive rate,
whether it's directly through revenue sharing
or through the Steph Currys and James Harden's of the world
or other NIL arrangements,
there's not as much money out there
as maybe some people think, but this is
the new paradigm. And if you're in the business of college sports, you better be adjusting to what's
happening and what's going to happen as opposed to the way things used to be. So given all of that,
is there any chance Cooper flag comes back next season at Duke? Well, Jessica, let me go this way.
There's a better chance that I will play next season for Duke than Cooper flag.
No, it is have the number one pick.
Come on. Yes.
You know what? It's funny you say that because I'm a DC sports fan.
Well, first of all, they haven't had the lottery.
So I'm a Wizards fan.
I go back to the old Bullitts days with Elvin Hayes and Wes Unseld and the Capitol Center
and Landover.
And I was down to Duke a couple weeks ago interviewing Cooper
for Fox Sports and I kind of looked him up and down
and said, you know, you look pretty good
in a wizard's uniform.
But the most wizard's thing ever is going to be,
they are not winning the lottery.
Like I am not even allowing myself mentally to go there.
As far as the numbers are concerned though,
if you look at what Cooper Plags go make in the NBA
as the number one pick, Duke can't even touch that.
But what we are seeing are players who would otherwise
go to the draft in like the second round,
or even guys who might not be drafted
and would potentially go overseas,
or guys who are coming out of high school
and going to play for the NBA G League Ignite,
which by the way, doesn't even exist anymore.
So all of this has really been great for college basketball and you know everybody's saying
all it's killing the transfer pool and all that you know they point to things that kind
of make us uncomfortable.
If you look overall the fact that players can now make real money playing college basketball,
guess what?
That means more of the really good ones are staying and returning to college basketball and that's been very good I think for the
enterprise. Miami is introducing Laren Yeager's replacement today in Lucas from
Duke. What do you think of that hire? Well I think it's a great hire. The very
very interesting part of that is the timing and this is just one of those odd
things. I presume this is going to be fixed. The transfer portal opens on March 24th. And
so if Miami doesn't have a head coach, not only on the 24th, but really in the run up
to the 24th, it's going to be way behind the eight ball in terms of recruiting transfers.
So that's basically the deal as I understand it, that they presented to Lucas and you know,
a lot of credit should go to John Shire for being okay with it, because if John Shire put his foot down and said to Jay Lucas, hey, I gave you a chance to come
here, we need you for the stretch run, we're trying to win the championship.
I'm not saying Jay would have done it, but it would have been a different situation.
So it's a great, again, lesson in terms of leadership of service, doing what's best for
the people who work for you.
But it's a problem because the portal opening on the 24th,
so you're gonna have 16 schools
who are still playing in the NCAA tournament.
They could move that back even a week and a half,
two weeks, and kind of ease that pressure.
Football has a much harder problem
because for 95, 98 probably percent of the schools,
I guess night whatever
it is ninety percent their
season basically ends in
Thanksgiving now you have these
bowl games that don't really
matter in the grand scheme and
so kids can enter the transfer
portal but you still have twelve
teams in the playoff it doesn't
even begin for several weeks
and that's a very very long
lead time and there's really not
much they could do about it
because there's so much time
between the end of the regular season and the start of the postseason but I'm hoping in very long lead time and there's really not much they can do about it because there's so much time
between the end of the regular season and the start of the postseason. But I'm hoping in college
basketball that they'll be able to move the portal back a week or two. But there may be other factors,
particularly academics involved in that, that I'm not fully briefed on that would prevent that. But
it seems to me one or two weeks shouldn't be all that hard. Chris Cody, always on top of things as the executive producer has accused you in my ear
of stifling a burp during that answer.
Is that accurate?
And what would the breakfast have been?
What would have been the breakfast
of choice for a Seth Davis?
See, Chris needs to roll with me
because I'm kind of an intermittent faster.
So I have my, I'm in LA by the way, so I'm up early.
Dan, I love you.
But it was for Leah that I'm that I'm doing this because I don't say no to her.
That's my rule.
So I got my little MCT oil and my my ghee butter in my in my early morning coffee.
Christian, we want to give it a shot.
And then I basically won't eat any food probably till I have my workout.
What I said, I said it as a compliment
because you're such a pro that it looked like
it looked like a little gas or air came up
and you just, you stayed with your point.
It was, and you just kind of stifled it.
I would have no problem admitting to an almost burp
or even an all in out belch.
I have no, I've admitted to many worse things than that.
So just being factual.
But you should still try the intermittent fasting, Chris.
I recommend it.
Give us some more information.
He will never try that.
It's not something that he's interested in anyway.
Can you give me some of the other ways
that you've gone full Los Angeles
with your kale smoothies and your ghee butter?
Well, I was kind of there when I moved out here.
I am a big juicer.
I try to have a nice green juice drink every day
uh the key is no fruit no sugar in there um so my my concoction is parsley spinach kale cucumber
lemon and ginger it tastes a lot better than that sounds the lemon and ginger makes it taste good
so it's about being hydrated being healthy but don't get it twisted I can put away cheesecake like no one you know I love a good stay I mean I loved I do like to eat so as I like to say
everything in moderation including moderation put it on the pole at
LeBittard's show do you think that Seth Davis could eat a cheesecake like nobody
else at LeBittard show tell us about your stand-up comedy career Man I don't know you did research like this bro. That's a little um. I don't know that I would call it a career
I know it shocks you because I'm not funny at all
It was basically it's I wanted to scratch. I was living in New York City
You know I grew up like so many people listening to George Carlin and rich prior and especially rich little
I grew up like so many people listening to George Carlin and Rich Pryor, especially Rich Little,
great impressionist.
And-
You don't do impressions, do you?
Did you do impressions?
Not in this, I have to think about
what I wanna do for you.
Yeah, of course I could do impressions.
Go ahead.
Well, let's not put some pressure on,
let's give him some time to think about
which impression he'd like to unleash,
but also please continue answering the question
How much stand-up did you do? When did you realize it wasn't for you, etc?
Should I do this whole answer is is Rich little doing Ronald Reagan it will I yeah
Yes, I always I always listen to George Carlin and we'll one day
I had a friend who took a comedy class at the new school and well there you go again
The well is key to Ronald Reagan. It's really
Every Ronald Reagan impersonation has a well in front of it. You can flip that right into Mike Tyson
I don't mind losing a but the but the Douglass. I didn't want to lose daily, you know
anyway, I I lose it a but the but the Douglass I didn't want to lose daily you know um anyway I uh
I grew up listening to George Carlin and Richard Prioridge all these guys and it was like you know
everyone thought oh I could never get on stage and do that right so I was living in New York City
a great friend of mine named Mitch Brenner was taking a stand-up comedy class at the new school
down at Greenwich Village and as part of the class you take a few classes and then you get some stage time.
And I thought, oh, I could never do that.
I can't believe you're doing that.
I could never do that.
And then he showed me video of him and his fellow students
doing their standup.
And of course, being students, they were awful.
And I watched that and I said, oh, I can suck.
I didn't realize sucking was an option.
That's easy.
So I'm gonna go out there and suck.
And I did,, at the time, you could
get five minutes of stage time. If you brought three audience
members and those audience members, I think they had to pay
a $20 cover and a two drink minimum and I had a lot of
friends in New York. So I would space them out between shows and
kind of develop my material. So I had a few good nights on it.
I kind of hit the low level circuit,
but you know, to be really good at anything,
you got to be able to commit yourself fully to it.
And I was at Sports Illustrated,
things were happening for me there.
So at a certain point, I just kind of decided I was done.
I did it for, but I will say this,
that was right about when I was starting
to do a lot more television.
And you can see how that those skills are are translatable from the stage to
to the small screen so
Yeah, but I've got a lot of mileage out of mentioning it in my bio
So thanks for picking up on it. He will be co-anchoring the 21st selection Sunday of his career this Sunday at 6 p.m
Eastern on CBS. He's also the co-founder and editor in chief of Hoops HQ.
The idea of paths not taken,
you mentioned Sports Illustrated.
What's the saddest you get these days
thinking about what Sports Illustrated has become
versus what it is you thought you were gonna do
when you joined Sports Illustrated however many years ago?
Well, the only constant in life is change.
And again, it's a great example of an entity not adapting
and being stuck in the way things were.
And especially when the people making those decisions
are so vested in the status quo, that becomes difficult.
So, you have two businesses,
one is Blockbuster and one is Netflix.
Explain to your listeners under the age of 40 or even 45 what Blockbuster is.
There's a Blockbuster everywhere.
And now look at Netflix and now nobody knows what Blockbuster is.
So that's kind of what happened to Sports Illustrated.
I will say though that I'm very pleased with the way that Sports Illustrated has reconstituted
itself with all of the tumult and there was a point in time there where we thought it
was literally gone completely. So it's still there. So a very good monthly
magazine. They still have some really good writers there. You know, Chris Mannix and
Tom Fertucci and Pat Forte. It does a great job in college sports. I mean, they have some
really good people there. Steve Cannella, the guy who's running the magazine is the
managing editor has been there long. In fact, he and who's running the magazine, is the managing editor, has been there a lot.
In fact, he and I started on the same day
we shared an office, July 1995.
But I think with disruptions, Dan, and changes,
and I know you're an old newspaper hack like me,
there's a lot of opportunities.
And what I'm doing with Hoops HQ is a great example.
We have this new creator economy
where if you're willing to hustle a little bit
and just think creatively, and use the things that got you there,
which is access storytelling, shoe leather, people want to read, people want to listen,
and they'll even give you a couple of bucks to for the ability to do that. So I'm not
saying it's easy, but life is not easy. And life is not fair. And that's kind of where
we are. You know, sports illustrated is the company that had a chance to buy
ESPN in the early 80s. And I guess figured maybe cable TV was
just a fad. So so that's one of many decisions that didn't work
out so well, I guess.
Before we get rid of you here, sleepers, give us three of them.
Let's go give us the teams that people need to be picking when
they get to their brackets.
Okay, well, you had one that punched its ticket to the dance as we say Drake yesterday, the Drake
Bulldogs really interesting story and that their coach Ben McCollum, the job came open because the
coach moved to West Virginia. So they hired Ben McCollum, who was a division two coach,
and he took a bunch of his division two players. He won a national championship at the D2 level brought him with him to Drake and
they won the Missouri Valley Conference regular season.
And now they've won the tournament, which is really, really hard to do.
They won all year best player in the league and Bennett starts just a really
talented guard.
They're one of the slowest teams in the country.
And I do like teams that play a slower tempo because it's much easier to take a
team that wants to run and slow it down than take a team that wants to play slow and speed it up. So that's an advantage.
St. Mary's also plays slow. I would watch out for them. At West, you see San Diego in
the Big West, similar story with some D2 transfers. And this is their first year in division one,
probably in position to win an at large bid if they don't make the tournament. Will Wade
is doing great things at McNeese.
I think he's probably going to move on.
You want to talk about Rick Vitino's past.
Will Wade is a whole nother conversation.
And then St. Mary's, I talk about a slow tempo playing grinding defense.
They've already beaten Gonzaga twice.
Uh, Randy Bennett has another really good team with a lot of international players.
Uh, the type of team that no one's going to want to see in the, I think it's
only a matter of time between the, kind of like what San Diego
State did and breaking through to the final four.
I've long thought it's only a matter of time before St.
Mary's has one of those runs.
Maybe this is the year.
Good seeing you.
We will check in with you on Sunday, sir.
Thank you for being on with us.
Good. All right. I'll see you next year.
God willing.

Hey, you sold that car yet?
Yeah, sold it to Carvana.
Oh, I thought you were selling to that guy.
The guy who wanted to pay me in foreign currency,
no interest over 36 months?
Yeah, no.
Carvana gave me an offer in minutes,
picked it up and paid me on the spot.
It was so convenient.
Just like that?
Yeah.
No hassle?
None.

Something okay. No the home run call was that kind of swing that kind of thing
Stugats. Oh
It's a good call. Thank you
And plus it doesn't matter who's hitting it like you're not tailing it to a particular
name.
Correct.
You know, all that jazz, you know, you don't gotta do that.
Oh, that would be a great call.
That kind of swing, that kind of thing!
This is the Dan Lebatar Show with the Stugats! two guards.
We've got to get to a very expensive Cheeto. We have to get to some unfortunate wording that a broadcaster used on a
California game and we have to get to a very fast 70 year old
who is not Greg Cody
That is Greg Cody and his son breathing very heavy at the end of the show
Toward the end of the show Greg forgets that he is on the air and he just breathes with his giant nostrils
Well, he they they usually tell me to put the mic closer to me this time
I was it was too close by a quarter of an inch. You're in peak comfort
Well, I'm relaxed.
How fast do you think you can run a hundred meters?
Probably 15 seconds.
Do you think you could run as fast as this 70 year old right here is running a hundred
meters in just a second faster, a second and a half faster than Greg Cody thinks that he
can run a hundred meter dash.
This is pretty fast for a 70 year old.
Tomorrow we're gonna have a corn dog eating competition.
Greg, this guy is going very fast.
You think that you would run one and a half seconds
slower than that guy did on a hundred meter dash.
29 seconds.
Obviously the film was sped up.
Like it was not sped up.
That wasn't real time.
That is real time.
The wind was blowing through his hair.
He would have been faster if not his hair
slowing him down aerodynamically.
See, I don't have that problem.
He's right about that.
Okay, I'm gonna adjust my estimate slightly
from 15 seconds to 17.5.
We're not gonna try it because we're afraid
of you falling on the track
and breaking a bunch of brittle bones.
I would do it on a soft surface.
Tell us what's coming up.
How would you run on a soft surface?
I mean, I don't wanna break a hip.
Yeah, like on sand or the beach.
I only got two hips, I don't wanna break one.
We should do a beach race.
Yeah, beach race. Beach race.. I only got two hips. I don't want to break one. Tell us. We should do a beach race. Yeah, a beach race.
Beach race.
Yay.
Beach day.
Beach day.
Beach race.
Beach day.
Beach race.
You couldn't be more bored and indifferent
while delivering content right now.
You are so ready to leave.
You're just ready to leave.
I'm not ready to leave.
You didn't even sing beach day with any enthusiasm.
You just went, yay.
It was just went, yay.
It was just the, you couldn't have been any more bored while delivering what you were
delivering.
You think, you, you call it bored because I'm relaxed, because I'm supine.
You know, it's, I'm relaxed.
I work better relaxed.
That's the thing about Beach Day is you relax.
Exactly.
What's coming up on the Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody?
We got a lot of good stuff on the new episode 261 that dropped today, and the headline I
guess would be, The Great Tony, Tony Kornheiser, Reacts to Being Named the Number One Podcast
Host Guest in Greg Cody Show History.
You're always better when you're relaxed.
Yeah, you are bored.
A reaction by Tony the K.
Is this the episode where you do the number 18th spice also?
Herb?
Number 19 herb.
Yeah, cause last week we did our revealing
the top 100 guests, so we skipped Herb of the Week
last week. Oh no.
So he does reveal in this episode the 19th.
Did you just reveal the number one guest
in the history of your,
is that something that's been revealed
on your podcast today?
Is it?
Yeah, this past week it was.
This past week.
And so this week we have a reaction from Tony Cornheiser.
There's no way he was on because he doesn't do much of that.
No, he was, we had him on.
I mean, you gotta listen to what he said.
I don't believe you.
I believe that it's him on,
I don't believe, why would he lie to sell his podcast
and he doesn't care whether it's the truth or not.
Well that's how you get Tony Kornheiser on.
You just make him number one.
You say Tony, guess what, big honor, you're number one.
He says, you know what, Gregory Cody,
I respect the hell out of you, I'm on.
We have him on, not for a long time,
but maybe a minute and a half.
For a good time?
It's a good time, it was a great time.
Levitore didn't even make the top 10, so he's sore.
Wow. He finished one spot behind Gary the Bag Rosenfeld.
Who was the most upset with their ranking?
Well, Levitard was, that's for sure.
Dan, you don't need to be upset.
I mean, it's subjective.
It's a three-person panel, one, threes, or five.
So, I thought you were great when you were on.
If it were up to me, I would've given you a five.
The most offended was Uncle Dick,
because we forgot to put him on.
What, you forgot Uncle Dick? So we went back to the next episode. We're like alright
We're putting them in so disappointed see you later Matt Panelli
Good I like that no we did forget uncle dick which is unheard of
Unfathomable all the other uns it's unheard of unfathomable. Yeah, you mentioned all the other ones too.
You mentioned only those two.
Unbelievable, really.
Unimaginable, right?
Un-American.
Well, I don't know about un-American,
but all the other uns were accurate.
I'm glad I've never been asked.
Un-couth would work.
Glad I've never been asked, what's a good time for the 100
meters?
Because I've got to be honest with you,
just not getting around to learning exactly what a meter is I think it's about this but I don't
know for sure if we had a contest in here I think a lot of Americans would
also feel fall well short of what a meter is well I only know because of
Olympic timing like the like the Olympic gold medal candidates run under 10 you
know like nine what no what's a great world just
said he doesn't know I don't know nine and a half I'm gonna say yeah if you
would have asked me before that clip I would have been like 13 9.2 why is that
ringing a bell that could be you could be right people are getting faster all
the time that's true I'm gonna double my time and up my estimate to 18 point 5
seconds okay cuz I don't pretend that at my age that I'm gonna double my time and up my estimate to 18.5 seconds.
Okay, because I don't pretend that at my age
that I'm gonna compete.
When's the last time you sprinted?
I run.
You don't run.
He's right.
No, I don't.
You don't run.
I don't believe it.
You don't even walk.
Do you run in those deck shoes?
Do you even own sneakers?
I do own sneakers.
We're talking to a man that when his doctor asks him
about how active he is, he says,
I walk around my house a lot.
Well, and he tries to tell me,
I no longer have that doctor.
He tries to tell me that's not exercise.
I'm walking a mile or two every day.
A mile.
What difference does it make where you take your steps?
You know what I mean?
Get your 10,000 steps,
and if I choose to do it
in the comfort of my own home, what do you care, doctor?
Because if you're taking like five steps at a time,
it's not the same as going for a mile walk.
It's about heart rate.
You replaced McGillicutty?
It's more than five.
Well, this was a different doctor
who will shall remain nameless.
Why?
Put the name out there.
Let's cost this doctor his degree.
This guy's trying to tell me that you have to cardio
and you have to sweat and you know this and breathe fast.
How dare he?
Sounds like a quack to me.
Hi.
This monster.
I got a big L shaped house.
You know, the amount of steps I take during a day
is crazy big.
With the game room of Kyrgios, you can do a full circle.
And there's probably steps, right?
But do you?
But do you ever do a full circle?
You bowl? Not intentionally. He does bowl. I circle. And there's probably steps right? But do you? But do you ever do a full circle? You bowl.
Not intentionally.
He does bowl.
I do bowl.
That's heavy lifting right there.
A 14.
You take one step to the lane
and one step back to the chair
where you drink a beer and eat pizza.
Yeah but you're tossing in some curls.
Nah but you're tossing some bicep curls
every once in a while.
He carries his bowling bag from the car
into the bowling alley. There you go.
It's a 15 pound ball times
however many times I'm lifting it.
You have your bowling shoes in there?
My dad, the only bowler in the league
that always walks out of the bowling alley
in his bowling shoes.
Chris, you completely changed your mind
about whose side you were on
midway through the last two minutes.
Greg's making some good arguments here.
You come in and out of the bowling alley
wearing your bowling shoes.
You drive to the bowling alley in your bowling shoes. You drive to the bowling alley in your
bowling shoes.
Yes, right. People are like putting covers on their bowling shoes because you can't go
in the bathroom. You don't want anything. My dad just walks outside in the bowling.
Please, pitch blue.
I'm wearing my bowling shoes home. If I'm stopped and I see a bowling game breakout
over there, I can stop. I can go over and say, hey, let me in.
Do you stop at a bar on the way home sometimes I'm the bowling alley while wearing the bowling shoes. No that doesn't happen
What about your golf shoes do you change in and out of those that he usually forgets and then ends up playing golf in his boat
shoes
I can count like more like a dozen times in my life. We've shown up to the golf course
They know I left my shoes at home
So he's in boat shoes now on the third day.
And with my game it doesn't even affect it.
Doesn't even hurt it.
But golf shoes I have worn home
because they don't clickety clack.
You know, they're, nowadays they're not
like metal spikes or anything.
So they're comfortable.
Do you wear your tap shoes home?
My what?
Tap shoes for tap dancing.
No, I don't tap dance really no
That's good
My mother tap dance it's in the family I have never tried it Jake Tapper Jake Tapper is right
well said I
Think that we're here castigating and frowning upon Greg and really we should be celebrating his preparedness. At any point in time, Greg can board a boat.
We know that.
Or a bowl.
Or a bowl.
Yeah.
If a game breaks out.
That's right.
Can I get the sound of that Los Angeles broadcaster,
please, using phrasing the Los Angeles broadcaster
should not have used during USC
and Juju Watkins obviously playing very well
as she always does.
Juju Watkins has caught the women's basketball world
by storm, certainly lit the world of Los Angeles on fire.
Ouch.
She said the world of Los Angeles, right?
Not the city.
So I think she's fine.
Yeah, I mean.
I'd call my lawyer if I was her
and kind of get away from that as much as possible
for trying to figure out what's going on there, you know?
Yeah, you gotta walk that one back.
Yep.
She didn't.
Give her time, she will.
Right?
I don't think so.
I don't think anyone is making a big deal out of this.
I think it is just an athletic cliche that most people probably didn't care about or
notice and therefore there will be no need for an apology of any sort and there will
be no need for a clarification of any sort.
I think that we're bringing it up on a major national show now that the onus is on her.
Yeah.
You gotta apologize!
You misspoke!
You know how many people lost
their homes in the Los Angeles fire who is that who is who is that they're just
that's the mob yeah yeah it was an outrage mom speaking as one it was it
was all of them speaking at exactly the same syllable count in words at the same
time and it's a chorus of them it's like the world's longest chant. It wasn't that long, it was just.
It was longer than that chant.
Yeah.
Right?
You gotta walk it back because insurance companies
will grasp at anything these days, you know what I mean?
They're gonna say, look, we have it right here on the record.
It's saying that you just started these fires,
and then boom, now it is they're not gonna cover any claims.
Why don't you just leave now, Greg?
Just leave since you've already checked out. just close your eyes take a nap just your
computer close it just put your legs crisscross applesauce just pack everything
up and just go you've just completed a wonderful day you're you're finished you
can just trying to get rid of I am kind of curious if in the next five minutes
of this segment, you could fall asleep.
Why don't you take your headphones off
and try earnestly to fall asleep.
I'm not the least bit tired.
Here, you want me to sit up?
All right, let me sit up in attention.
Nap day, nap day.
Here, I'm sitting up in attention now.
Ramrod straight.
Look, shoulders back.
Raminate.
I've never exactly, raminaman it i've never sought set taller
sitting really
your son in an effort to bail me out of the particular quagmire that you have
dragged us into just shouted urgently in my ear
i have the cheeto
i have the cheeto he's just the Cheeto. He's just, he's just shouting, trying, he's so used to producing you with Yeti on your podcast
that he has rushed into the breach
and come up with a topic that all of us can jump into,
which is an $89,000 Cheeto.
Let's check out this particular Cheeto.
What does it say that, what is it?
Where is this being purchased?
Cheeto Zard.
What, why?
An unnamed buyer purchased it.
I think it was Darren Rebell.
Maybe.
And what was the, was it indeed $89,000?
And why was it purchased for that much?
Because it looks like Charizard.
I'm telling you, you give me a bag of Cheetos,
I'll find one just like that.
Well, you should.
There's one in every bag.
That's a great way for you to make some money.
$89,000.
Maybe we'll do this tomorrow.
I'll pour out a bag of Cheetos and I will find something else in there that it won't be maybe Charizard in particular
But it'll be like something famous that we can then sell that's a fraudulent
Cheeto I'll tell you exactly what happened
Somebody welded together like five or six different Cheetos into that design. That's not what happened. I think I can be done
It can be done. How do you guys feel about Cheetos into that design. That's not what happened. And it can be done.
It can be done.
How do you guys feel about Cheetos?
Have you got, when was the last time any of you,
when was the last time you had a Cheeto?
Seven minutes ago.
I love the very crunchy Cheetos.
I don't like the soft ones, the big puffy ones.
Yeah, I don't like the big puffy ones either.
I don't think those are Cheetos.
Aren't they?
Well, no, Cheetos has a brand of that.
Cheese puffs.
Yeah, cheese puffs.
But I like that type of Cheeto. I don't care if it costs $90,000. Put that in front of me, I'll eat it has a brand of that. Cheese puffs. Yeah, cheese puffs. But I like that type of Cheeto.
I don't care if it costs $90,000.
Put that in front of me, I'll eat it in a minute and a half.
Well, there was another Cheeto that went for sale on auction that looked like Harambe in
2017.
That one got sold for, I think, almost $100,000.
How is that possible?
That's crazy.
How is that being-
That's Darren Revelle.
How is that something that people are doing
and that cannot be a business of investment
that appreciates?
There is simply no way that you can tell me
that there's a way to purchase an $89,000 Cheeto
that will then appreciate in value.
How is that, is the price tag that is assigned
to the Cheeto?
Think about the conversation starter, like all your parties now. It's not a good conversation starter. that is assigned to the Cheeto.
Think about the conversation starter
that like all your parties now.
It's not a good conversation starter.
You can be like, look, I have a Cheeto
that looks like Charizard.
That's not a good conversation starter.
Who's Charizard?
I mean, I can't help you.
Yeah.
Oh, we have Cheetos here now.
Let's see if I can find one of the apostles, I think.
How would you, if you don't even know what Charizard,
how are you gonna go through your bag of Cheetos
and find one, Greg?
Who's Charizard?
Is he the third sage of the Charmander Revolution?
Oh.
That cleared it up for me.
He's the third sage of the Charmander Revolution.
Okay, that's what I thought.
Do you know who Harambe is?
The gorilla.
Yeah.
Yeah, this might be harder than I thought.
Passed away, I believe.
Anyone have any Weld?
What?
I'd like to Weld these together.
Weld? Not like a Welder. Does anyone have any weld What I'd like to weld these together
It's not like a welder. Does anyone have any weld?
I Posited off Mike. Do you think flaming hot Cheetos have surpassed a regular cheat?
Oh, I didn't wait the I didn't even know there were regular Cheetos
I thought they only came in hot hot Cheetos are a thing
But still the the best selling is according to chat GPT
It's still the most popular and best-selling one is your traditional crunchy cheeto, but then so that might be true
So second is
Flamin hot which is
puffs are third
Cheetos flaming hot limon are fourth cheetos cheddar jalapeno fifth
Cheetos extra flaming hot six and then cheetos white Cheetos Extra Flame and Hot 6th, and then Cheetos White Cheddar Bake 7th.
You guys made fun of me recently
for loving the chili cheese Fritos,
which are, put it on the poll at Levitard Show,
better chip.
Is it a chip?
Cheeto or Frito at Levitard Show.
Is the Cheeto, would the Cheeto count as a chip?
Yeah, I would.
But I don't think it.
Let me ask Chachu B.T. Is it? Put it on the poll as well. Is the Cheeto, would the Cheeto count as a chip? Yeah, I would. But I don't think it. Let me ask Chachu BT.
Is it?
Is it?
Put it on the poll as well.
Is the Cheeto a chip?
This one kind of looks like a seahorse.
Yeah, it does.
How much do you think I can get for this bad boy?
Well, we need a seahorse, a prominent seahorse to die.
And then just say, well.
Or we need a seahorse that looks like Jesus Christ.
Yeah, there you go.
Put it on the poll at Lebatard Show.
Do you like the chili cheese Fritos?
They're some of my favorites. I haven't had them in a while, but I've had those they're great. Yeah
I love Fritos because they're so salty
Do you prefer the Frito to the Cheeto or do you have a do do yes?
I don't like how messy the Cheeto is. Well, you're talking about the crunchy Cheeto. Not considered a chip because chip of what?
You know, it's not not really crunchy Cheeto. Not considered a chip, because chip of what? What is it?
You know, it's not really a chip,
it's considered a snack.
And it's put in the chip pile because of its association
with being a salty, crunchy snack.
I'm glad we answered an important question today.
