But with the BMO Eclipse Rise Visa Card, paying your bills could sound like this. Yes! Now's a good time to remember where Tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented Tequila.
Starting point is 00:00:42 Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo.
Starting point is 00:00:55 Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion. Cuervo. So, enjoy the tequila that started it all. Cuervo. Cuervo. The te enjoy the tequila that started it all. Cuervo. Cuervo. The tequila that invented tequila. Proximo.
Starting point is 00:01:08 Cuervo.com. Please drink responsibly. Cuervo. This is the Dan Leventor Show with the StuGuts Podcast. All right guys, it's time for Against the Spray. Come on, Jazzlo. Can we do it again? Come on, Jazzlo wants to do it again. Jazzlo didn't know how to do it.
Starting point is 00:01:44 All right, guys, it's time once again for Against the Spread. And it's presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Billy. I'm going to start on the hardwood. Right across the street, we got a big one today. The Golden State Warriors. Who are they playing?
Starting point is 00:02:03 Minus 5 and 1 half against the Miami Heat at home. Now here's something not that many people are talking about. There's one person that's been mentioning it, but not many people are talking about. The Warriors are coming in, 0 for 1 in their last one. Big losing streak. The Heat, on the other hand, coming in 1-0.
Starting point is 00:02:23 I told you that's the headline I won tonight on TNT. That's what's happening right now. One team losing streak, the other team winning streak. Tensions are gonna be high if there isn't kind of like an embrace at the beginning of the game, thank yous and all that. The experts are saying that's probably not what we're gonna expect.
Starting point is 00:02:39 We're gonna be looking out to see if one Jimmy Butler who's coming back gives a look to Pat Riley at some point in the game. But you know what? I don't know that the Golden State Warriors again coming in on a losing streak are gonna be able to go up against the Miami Heat and the Heat culture and the pressure that comes with one of the greatest fan bases in the NBA. So the fact that the line is minus five and a half for the road team again coming in on a losing streak Facing the red hot Miami Heat one and own their last one
Starting point is 00:03:09 I'm gonna have to take the Miami Heat plus five and a half tonight against the Warriors Tony Hate to do this, but in that very same game Very juicy spread of minus five and a half to a team that's lost 11 out of their last 12 games. Wanna know? Wanna know, of course, but have lost 11 of their last 12 games. We don't know if Steph Curry's gonna play,
Starting point is 00:03:33 but we do know that Jimmy Butler's gonna play. And I'm gonna bank on Jimmy Butler having a pretty good game tonight. You can't do this this way. We're in a contract here with DraftKings. No, you can't. I know, but I'm trying to give people value. We're not talking about the fact that Jimmy Butler completely, allegedly, trashed the place that he used to rent.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Like, what happens if, you know, the fuzz comes to talk to him before the game? They're gonna know exactly where he is. The fuzz? The FBI? They come up, they talk to him. The police, 5-0, Popo, they say, you know what, Jimmy, there's been a complaint, we need to do an investigation here. You trashed your former residence here. You guys hear about this? Zazz say, you know what Jimmy, there's been a complaint, we need to do an investigation here, you trashed your former residence here. You guys hear about this?
Starting point is 00:04:07 Zazzle, you know about this? I do. Yeah, what happens if there's an investigation and he ends up not being able to suit up? Five and a half's a lot. How much do you think the security deposit is that they're threatening to keep? Is it a million?
Starting point is 00:04:18 I thought it was millions of dollars, wasn't it? It's a couple hundred grand, the security deposit is a couple hundred grand, like 250. I thought, put it on the poll please, Juju at Levitardard show over under of the person who calls the police the fuzz 100 years old put the number at a hundred years old You find a place with hundreds of thousand dollars a million dollar security deposit you find another place There's plenty of places that you can live at that don't have a million dollar security deposit. I go by popo. Yeah
Starting point is 00:04:42 Have you guys seen Jimmy when he does like architect architectural digest digest digest? Wow. Five oh. I'm more of a 12 guy. His home in California is his second home and it's unbelievable. Like the places that this person lives. There's a reason he wanted that extension. So you can't digest or say digest. Yeah. I'm gonna take golden state minus five and a half. Oh god, it's Bruce B. Jess, you must never apologize for making a digestion joke at my expense.
Starting point is 00:05:15 You can even have an orange. That has to be a safe space for all of us. I am still alarmed as we head into this second hour, hour two of the show. It's actually the fourth hour of the show, second hour, hour two of the show. It's actually the fourth hour of the show, but it's hour two of the show. Yeah, we do a lot of show. Zaslow said something that I have not heard
Starting point is 00:05:33 for all of the content made everywhere about this stupid Jimmy Butler game. I have not heard said plainly on television what Zaslow just said during a break. He just said, Jimmy's full of shit. Yeah, he's a liar. Yeah, he's a liar. Go on.
Starting point is 00:05:50 So Jimmy was asked with his media availability yesterday, amongst a bunch of questions, essentially, when did you know that things were awry? And he was like, I knew at the end of last year so so back in May You knew that we were at the point of no return, and he said yes, I knew back then well Then why were we asking for an extension over the summer and Jimmy was also asked if you signed the extension? He gave you the money was this situation Avoidable and he said flatly no so a why did you ask for the extension when you knew things were
Starting point is 00:06:25 Done with and B. He's just trying to make it sound like it's not about money when we know it's about money It's only about money. It's always about money. So I think he's full of shit Okay, so you say you could say full of shit But I would say doesn't he end up being right about it's 35 years old and the last 16 games have proven that franchise wasn't gonna give me an extension that got me to 37 and I need to get my money now because I'm tired of playing with these bums like isn't that what happened I'm like isn't that some form of I know they're my friends and everything but I'm tired of playing with these bums who have turned out in 11
Starting point is 00:07:03 games since to appear like bums But he's saying that even if they gave him the money He was at the point of no return that he didn't want to play there anymore And I think that's nonsense, but okay You can say that it's nonsense and I would see how a proud athlete would be disrespected by hey Do you know basketball's history on who does 40-point games eight games in the postseason, like, no, get me better dudes. You see, we're at the point in the saga where now you guys sound like people that have been dumped and you keep wanting to rehash how the dumping happened.
Starting point is 00:07:34 And I'm the friend who keeps having to hear about it over and over and over and over again. And I'm like, Hey man, I know it was a really hard breakup and I feel for you, but we need to move on now. All right. But the girl that I broke up with is in front of a microphone being asked questions. Coming over to your house tonight. And she looks great. By other people.
Starting point is 00:07:52 She looks great and you're so upset. I get it. Talking about me. But we need to, we can't keep talking about it. Oh, but she's gonna look like shit in two years, am I right? She's gonna look so bad in two years. You know, I have a breakup song prepared
Starting point is 00:08:02 if you guys want it. She'll probably look busted in a couple of years. A breakup song if you want it. I'm about totally busted, yeah. know, I have a breakup song prepared if you guys want it. She'll probably look busted in a couple years. Breakup song if you want it. I'm about totally busted, yeah. We don't want the breakup song yet. The Heat were not wrong, by the way, and are not wrong in not wanting to give 37-year-old Jimmy Butler a ton of money.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Like, that is crazy reckless irresponsible. What is wrong with the Heat having wanted him to play out the contract they gave him? I don't want to have this conversation again when you say though that it would have been reckless to give it to him, perhaps, but one team was willing and it's why Jimmy wins. Like, yes it's reckless and Golden State gave him the money and he got the money because he was telling everybody, I'm 35, I know it's over, you guys don't know what these bums are. You don't know what these bums are
Starting point is 00:08:47 You don't know what I've been carrying for five years I know I keep saying bums again and again, but like he's been he's I don't know I feel like I have been some real wall sure you're talking about the end of the roster this season and We can go through those names right Moe Harkless and Dwayne Deadman and all these guys that were at the end of the rotation or out of the roster. But like, why are we still re-litigating it? And Liam Hicks. And Connor Norby.
Starting point is 00:09:12 So you guys are right. And the reason, I wanna, I'm gonna get to these songs in a second, but before I do that, because you may be indeed tired, as I'm sure you are, of storylines instead of real basketball, I've been telling you that Juju Gotti is a special talent around here. And last season, Juju took over our live YouTube after games in a show called Alley Oop, and
Starting point is 00:09:37 it does basketball a little bit less storyline and a little bit better than the heat homerism you find around here. So who? Yeah, I can't believe we brought in somebody chess We brought in somebody who's more of a homer than the other homers Yeah, and the girl always looks so much worse in a couple years But you're gonna look really good because you're gonna go to the gym. You're gonna get your life turned around You're not gonna keep falling into the same patterns that you've been falling into your entire life This is really when change starts.
Starting point is 00:10:06 Look, that girl is going to look busted. Woman. And you're gonna look so good. Woman. Well, he looks busted now. Lady. Yeah, he looks terrible now. Woman.
Starting point is 00:10:15 Not anyone, you know, hypothetically, of course. You posted that one. Woman. What? That was the problem there. Ha ha ha ha. Let's introduce the audience, Daliu. Look, we're in a Celtic Jersey.

It's doc rivers at the helm He's not he's not going to beat the nicks's Doc Rivers at the helm. He's not he's not going to beat the Knicks. He's not worth it. He's not ready for that. But you need to worry about the Detroit Pistons. That's who you need to worry about. Exactly. Because remember we already know what's up with Kat.

So you have one Isaiah Stewart elbow to the face. Make him draw, make him bleed his own blood and then we'll see what happens. Exactly, that boy gonna cry to the locker room.
Starting point is 00:13:33 Who else on the team? PJ Tucker though, he's on the list. He's the enforcer. He's the one who's gonna come in the 20 year old kicks with the 20 year old glue. And he's the James Johnson of this team. You know what it is about the PJ Tiger pickup? When he come in the middle of the year,
Starting point is 00:13:51 it's not the same thing as when you spent the, you know, a training camp with some young kids and stuff like that. He just came and when I look at him, I feel like that. Like you just here to collect a check, you're not ready to slap nobody. Like I need somebody that's ready to slap somebody. Wait, wait, wait, why we got a Nick segment? I'm not understanding what's happening.
Starting point is 00:14:11 Nah, I'm rolling out the red carpet for my dog. Nah, don't roll out the red carpet for me. This is what I'm talking about. And if you can't come back at you because you got five teams and you're trying to act like you're a Celtic fan. You're not a Celtic fan. Come on, I'm a Celtic fan only. But we're the Celtic Jersey.

Starting point is 00:16:35 What are you waiting for, family dog? Call right now! Right now. Who is the goofiest team in the NBA thus far? I have a put, I got the Miami Heat slash the Sixers. Now the Sixers of course we all know. They spent the whole bag on Paul George, Podcast P, feel me who just realized two weeks ago that wait a second This podcast thing is a little distracting Maybe I should put that down only the disco located fibula to two weeks later now he out for the season and then the Miami heat
Starting point is 00:17:18 I'm not sure what they thought what it was going going on They they kind of put Jimmy Butler out there. They exposed all of his bad habits. They didn't want to pay him. They said he wasn't flying to the game with the team. He flying on his private jet. Only to make one of the goofiest trades in the goofball history of the goofy America. Andrew Wiggins. You thought Andrew Wiggins was actually finna come back and make a difference? I don't know, bro. What y'all think? Who's y'all choice for goofiest team in the league right now? I got Dallas. Dallas has gotta be number one.
Starting point is 00:17:57 And it's not just the Luka train. The Luka train is obviously really, really bad and that's like the top of the pyramid of dumbass things that they've done this year or a period. So like you trade for Luka and you say we're looking for the long term, but you trade for a guy who's literally his nickname is skin of paper, bones of glass, and he doesn't even make it a full game before he ends up getting injured and now now you're trying to tank and he wants to go back and play games and you're trying to shut him down okay so that's that part and then you
Starting point is 00:18:36 end up trading for Quinton Grimes in the offseason for Tim Hardaway jr. and you paid four second round picks for Quentin Grimes Now Quentin Grimes gets traded at the trade deadline and you have to give a second round pick to trade him as well And you get Caleb Martin back Caleb Martin's not playing no damn games Why did they get the pick it was such a bad trade that they actually got a second round back at the deadline because they're like, oh yeah, sorry, he's a lot more hurt than we thought. And now Quinton Grimes is playing for Philadelphia and he's putting up 40. And you can't even field a full team.
Starting point is 00:19:17 And then because of the Quinton Grimes trade, you can't even sign any two-way players, not even a 10-day contract so you might end up forfeiting games that is insane that's some of the goofy shit I have seen Josh what you think bro goofy as team thus far I'm gonna agree with Trista and I'm gonna tell you and I'm gonna tell you why you pray Luca Donchik last year's leading scorer last year's finals runner up before the finals how was they talking about Luca like he was Michael Jordan you're gonna trade him for Anthony Davis when you could have traded him I would have gave him OG I'd have gave him bridges I'd have gave him bridges. I'd have gave him towns. I'd have gave him Leon Rose. I'd have
Starting point is 00:20:06 given him Patrick Ewing. I'd have... take them all. This is what Kandosh should be talking about. Spike, take them all. Steven A? This just hit my mind right quick because I see something on TV randomly. Y'all seen the baton girl who was running and she hit the girl with the baton? Yeah, yeah. What y'all, did she do that on purpose or was it? Definitely. It was a cockback. She was like...
Starting point is 00:20:39 Oops, oops. I can understand how you like can swing your arm. And you know, while a baton is in your hand that the girl might've been too close to you. Did she hit her twice? She hit her twice. She hit her twice. She hit her twice.
Starting point is 00:20:55 A two piece. The double tap, double tap came for the two piece. All right. Go cold slob, fry on fry. He's trying, he's trying to give her a little grace. Damn. And with that being being said we gonna wrap it up Thank y'all for joining me that Trista come on round of applause for my sister Josh round of applause for my brother and that right there is the alley-oop man welcome back man

Starting point is 00:25:34 Blues clues, blues clues. Sit on the chair and think about it. This is the Don LeBathardt Show with the Stugarts. Jessica you've tried your damnedest to pull us off of the storyline of the day. I really do hate preview shows and, God, regular season basketball. But our obsession with the nonsense makes it that we like the soap opera stuff and locally, whether it's Homerific, Zaslow saying, We are the center of the basketball universe tonight.
Starting point is 00:26:20 What was that voice? That's his voice. It's my voice. His regular voice. All right. He brought something from a little bit lower. I thought it had a little- It's a little loiny.
Starting point is 00:26:31 What I felt there, what I heard come off him was- Pride? Do you remember how important we were 2010 to 2014 when I was sitting in a press room and that snake Sedano was betraying me? Because I thought it was all over. It was us against the world and then LeBron saved the blueprint and we're so desperate for those times around
Starting point is 00:26:51 here that you get a sniff of it in the regular season. Hey look, a game that matters! A game that matters that now Jeremy's in a lab making songs, multiple songs, look at the smile on his face. Pain births creativity. Can we acknowledge how brown my hair is in that picture? I mean, look at that. That's a young man right there. Brown, huh? You know what, I'll give you tonight, the game's on TNT, I'm gonna watch it as a hater,
Starting point is 00:27:15 and I encourage all of our fans who are so sick and fed up of all of this. What are you rooting for, Jessica? You want him to score 50? Jimmy Baller, every time he gets a ball, score three pointer, three pointer, three pointer. Two, three, two, three, 50 points. This is the last day we can do this, guys.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Missed no shots. This is the end. As a hater, I'm gonna tune in just to hate on all of you. Wonderful. So the best result is what? Because that's for you. What is the best result for Zazz, for Jeremy? Or Ethan.

Be like, look, this guy was, he was so volatile. We're taking the high road, we're the better people.
Starting point is 00:28:30 Malice at the Palace type situation. If Jimmy Butler and Duncan Robinson go at it in a little kerfuffle, I think that would be pretty awesome. I mean, best case scenario is Jimmy Butler missed a shot at the end of the game, he win. Just like he did in game seven against the Celtics. Well, listen, I don't wanna revisit that. That's not a good memory for me.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Hey, you wanna win a title? Go win it with the best team you had. Make the shot. I feel like the lamest thing tonight would be a kerfuffle with Dustin Robinson. Dustin Robinson. It's okay, Dan. No, that's a marlin.
Starting point is 00:29:03 Dan, that's a marlin. Dan, that's a Marlin. That's a shortstop, yeah, you're right. Jonah Bride. Oh, Jonah Bride. Who's he? Third liner on the Panthers, of course. The cleanup hitter for the Marlins. Oh, what?
Starting point is 00:29:16 Jeremy, you don't get the game, God. Oh wow, Jazz just walked out on the diamond. Big day. You're watching spring training baseball? I'm watching, no, no, this is batting practice for spring training baseball. He literally just walked out on the field to an empty stadium, it's not open yet.
Starting point is 00:29:33 Which is the song, Jeremy? Do you wanna sing about LeBron or do you wanna sing about Jimmy first? You know, the LeBron stuff needs some setup, so let's just talk about the Jimmy Butler breakup for a second. ["Buddler's Given Up On You"] Jimmy Butler's given up on you
Starting point is 00:30:18 He'll start to pass when he's supposed to shoot. Every team knows what he's gonna do when Jimmy Butler's giving up on you and he will do nothing but ball And lead you for five years Play off runs and all But money Can make it all fall
Starting point is 00:31:05 Apart at the seams Business of basketball Jimmy Butler's giving up on you Butler's giving up on you He'll start to pass when he's supposed to shoot And every team knows what he's gonna do When Jimmy Butler's giving up on you That's a breakup song, that's sad. I don't, I don't, what is that? That's not what tonight is. Well, do you want to celebrate LeBron James? Because Dan, I don't know if you've seen,
Starting point is 00:32:06 but on TikTok right now, there's a trend where people are just making songs, celebrating LeBron James, Lepooky James, as a lot of TikTok loves to call him. Jess, have you, have you seen this trend? I have seen it and I don't know where it started. Me either. But it's just a bunch of LeBron videos. Yeah, so I've just had people reaching out to me because this is all I do with the show anymore
Starting point is 00:32:30 is be the song and dance man. My boys are all over this. Yeah, these LeBron songs, right? So decided that, of course, since it's my job, I had to make one of my own. Wait, what do you think about it, Zaslow? I don't like it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:40 Well then enjoy this. And I didn't know where it's coming from, where they're singing these LeBron songs. I mean, what the hell's going on here, you know, yeah Thanks for the setup All the brawn beams, he is our king. He and Lakers, Cleveland, Capoliers. Always we know, he'll put on the show. Shooting Anton King,Fouki is winning

Is it just the subject of the song? Yeah, pretty much in the lyrics. I just I don't like it. Do you like Blink 182? No, and I don't like that song either. It's one of those overdone things. They played it hockey games and the crowd all sings. Yeah. It's lame. That feels forced to me. Very. A lot of those like this is going to be our song. Everybody needs to learn how to sing. Don't back down. Where did that come from? All of a sudden University of Florida loves it. Please. I don't know. I didn't like our song. Everybody needs to learn how to sing. Don't back down. Where did that come from all of a sudden? University of Florida loves it, please.
Starting point is 00:34:08 I don't know. I didn't like that song. Thanks. Keep it real. Whatever, not every song's a banger. No, I know. You don't have to be excited. You're right.
Starting point is 00:34:15 Yeah, no, I'm not. What'd you think of the first song? A little long, the first one. I thought the first song was beautiful. I mean, Ryan Cortez is crying somewhere in his room. That's every day. It's been worse the last the last 12 games. I mean do you do you do you know how staggering it is I'm sorry I'm struggling so much do you know how staggering it is for me to go from
Starting point is 00:34:37 what I've been saying about the Heat 15 years to going to calling Bam and Hero bums. All-stars bums because of over 16 games? That's the thing that's super weird about it. It's a crazy switch so quickly. I don't understand why Bam is now terrible. Well, he's not. He's had some bad games. He's actually pretty good in that stretch. He's been really good.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Pretty good. He was averaging like 25 and 12. But again to your point. He's not good What no it's it's that the thing that's happened with winning has just made it so clear that There's something between you guys tell me if I'm wrong because you guys do check on You know the advanced stats and the differences in the lineups. But when Tyler Hero's getting the usage rate, he's the all-star. And when Bam's getting everything that he can, he's the all-star. But they can't be all-stars at the same time if they don't have another all-star who's better than they are.
Starting point is 00:35:39 That's why having Andrew Wiggins score 42 points the other night was certainly helpful. They need a third option, right? Like most teams. But it sounds like they need a third option, right? Like most teams. But it sounds like they need a first option. Oh, they need a first option, or they need a third who's akin to each of them, right? They need a first option. That's what Wiggins is,
Starting point is 00:35:52 and they'll try to acquire first option this offseason. They're not gonna be a championship team if they don't have a number one who's at least as good as Jimmy Butler, right? Offensively, and preferably, they'd have someone who works off of Bam and Tyler's skill sets better than Jimmy Butler did even offensively. You know what they should do?
Starting point is 00:36:11 I'll tell you what they should do. They should win the draft lottery. Wow. Thank you. Good idea. Wow, yeah. Guys, I've been on this for two years. Yeah, just do that. Well, I would say-
Starting point is 00:36:19 Well, Cooper Flag's not coming out this year because he wants to go back to college. No, right. Not at the Heat, get that number one all pick. That ping pong ball. You know about that culture? The biggest Heat of Homers There are Billy Again with the culture like what do we need to do around here to eradicate that
Starting point is 00:36:34 Like just to shock He said culture I didn't say culture No I know but you yesterday Yesterday and today look I took the Heat tonight plus five and a half again I believe in this team How you love that? I love that Yesterday and today, look. I took the heat tonight, plus five and a half. Against this man. Against this man. I believe in this team. How you love that?
Starting point is 00:36:47 I love that. You know what else Zazz loves? The strangest of the cheeses on his sub. Oh. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. No, no, don't tell them. Don't tell them. Don't tell them.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Guesses. Strange cheese? Wait, what kind of sub? Well, what would you guys say? What's the best of the cheeses on the subs? What is the, dude? What do you mean any? Depends on the flavor. Turkey, provolone.
Starting point is 00:37:08 I have a favorite cheese, and if I'm having a sub, why would I not wanna have my favorite cheese on whatever sub I'm getting? So yes, one. What are the best of the cheeses? Don't make guesses on what it is that his cheese is. Just give me what you would say are the Hall of Fame cheeses. Fresh mozzarella when you got a nice Italian sub.
Starting point is 00:37:29 There's no bad cheeses. Good but incorrect. Fog alone is a good sandwich. Also good but incorrect. Are we doing this specifically for sandwiches or just in general, like if I want a piece of cheese? Everything. Here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:37:41 I love a good Colby Jack, but that's cheating, because it's two cheeses together. Colby Jack is a trash cheese. yeah, you're a trash cheese. He plays for the Marlins utility infielder Roy you just whispered it. I don't think anybody heard you muster. Oh, yeah. Oh, I love mustard cheese. That was it best cheese Yeah, I like my that's such a normal take. Okay, thank you. Yeah. Thank you very much.
Starting point is 00:38:07 Like when I go to Publix and I get my chicken tender sub, I get Muenster cheese on it every time. Put some Muenster on that baby. Yeah, me too. Dan's trying to shame me here. Like it's weird that I love Muenster cheese. I don't believe anybody, I don't, none of you guessed Muenster as the best of the cheeses.
Starting point is 00:38:18 Well, because we thought we were doing crazy cheeses. Yeah, I thought it was like some weird like Muenster cheese. Every time I go to Publix, I get some sweet hand and I get some monster cheese Because they're used boars head and I'm not gonna lie I'm still a little freaked out by the whole Which is the cheese that they like light on fire Saganaki that there's like giant wheels of cheese and they go like a blowtorch and light light on fire. Saganaki? That there's like giant wheels of cheese and they go with like a blow torch and light it on fire. Do you eat raclette?
Starting point is 00:38:48 I don't know what I mean. And they scrape it onto your meal, right? That's raclette, yeah. Yeah, I like that. It's like a French cheese. I like it better if it were Munster. Mm-hmm. Oh, imagine a wheel of Munster cheese, Zaz,
Starting point is 00:38:57 that you light on fire. Totally normal cheese, Dan, thank you. The code, I know, I wasn't saying it's normal. You eat aged cheese, don't you, Dan? Well, you know me. You like the stuff't saying it's normal. You eat aged cheese don't you Dan? I just, well you know me. You like the stuff with the mold on it. I have to stay away from the dairy. I love blue cheese.
Starting point is 00:39:09 Oh I would, in a previous incarnation I would, but now it's all alternate milks, alternative milks. Blue cheese? I'm very sorry for the loss. Blue cheese is disgusting, you know what else is disgusting? Feta. Get that. Feta's amazing.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Feta cheese is gross. Hold on, they, they, they, so John Amici when I went over to Greece told me you have to go over to this little place called Eva's Garden and they have an incredible restaurant over there in Mykonos and when you go over there ask for the fried cheese with the honey on top. So it's feta cheese that they fry and then they put honey on top. Shout out to John Amici, we went twice when we were there. Zazz, would you say you're fed up with it? Well I don't ever have it, so no. Just wait a second.
Starting point is 00:39:51 So there's a pistachio milk brand that I see everywhere now, and it's called Taché. It's crazy. Wow. That's Jeremy's last name, by the way. It's T-A-C-H-E. They just have the accent over the A instead of the E. I've seen this for years. I accidentally one time, because I wanted, I was like, Jeremy's last name by the way. T-A-C-H-E. They just have the accent over the A instead of the E. I've seen this for years. I accidentally one time because I wanted,
Starting point is 00:40:08 I was like, oh cool, it has my name on it, I'll order. And I accidentally, instead of ordering one carton, I ordered a case. And so I just had 12 giant cartons of pistachio milk in my fridge. It's pretty good though. It is good and it has my name on it. So hey, Tash Pistachio Milk,
Starting point is 00:40:23 if you're looking for a brand partnership, we'll do it right here. I could be like Lucy. All right, so hold on a second. Billy, Tony, please have at it there. Like, what is he doing? He saw the portal tour. He looked directly at the camera, too.
Starting point is 00:40:34 It is super rare for someone to so overtly say, yes, please, I'd like to talk about myself at Dossium. It's rare. It's pistachio milk too, come on. Get a grip. Eddie Monster. It's pretty good. I heard there was some hubbub yesterday
Starting point is 00:40:48 out in the office in some of the common areas about how these alternative milks that you like are bad for the environment, Dan. Is that so? It's not that I like the alternative milks, it's that they're easier on my body than dairy, but yes, I've been told that they're not climate friendly. Well, what are you gonna do about that?
Starting point is 00:41:06 No, I don't think that's true for every single thing. Hang with them. I think it's, almonds use a lot of water, but I think oat milk apparently is very easy to make, but I don't know, don't quote me on this, I'm not a food scientist. But also our farming practices are not great for the environment either, so.
Starting point is 00:41:20 But we're in this conundrum now with Dan, where it's like, do you care more about your body, or do you care more about the body or do you care more about? Well, that's why Tony I love that out of the side of Tony's mouth in the eating area yesterday I heard or how about you just get it from a cow Everybody was fine all the sudden. No, I got this thing Drink nut milk. Everybody's got allergies Gluten bullshit. Come on. Whoa whoa Yeah, whatever the gluten is not both. I think I think I've said this on the show before I think people for their whole lives just
Starting point is 00:41:54 Feel bad after they eat and they don't really think about it Or they just like have disgusting gastrointestinal problems, and they're just fine with it And that's okay like you that's your choice if your lactose intolerant you still want to have ice cream like that's your choice a lot of people my body much well as you need a slice of pie well careful Florida so you got cheese you got gluten how do you feel after a slice of pizza I feel fantastic incredible right yeah I'm not here asking you know is it gluten free how do you feel an hour and a half later I've me personally I feel great.
Starting point is 00:42:26 Really? A lot of people do. Like, not everyone has the same tummy. Dan's tummy, if he had one Cheeto, he would explode. I've heard it's also just like here, yeah, one Cheeto. He'd explode in one time. I had a black bean the other day, and it would have been a black bean. No way.
Starting point is 00:42:40 One black bean? One ad black bean. Oh man, explosion. One snuck into something. A black bean. Guys, it's a word bean. Oh man, explosion. One snuck into something. That's a sea of black bean. A black bean. Yes, A black, I'm not even kidding you.
Starting point is 00:42:48 I had A black bean and it was not good. I've heard if you have pasta here versus if you have pasta in like Italy, your body reacts completely differently. The pasta and bread in Italy is just another level. That was a real gourmet Italian connoisseur that made an appearance. He's right. That was a meek and I was in Greece Totally united on this United we stand on business on business
Starting point is 00:43:20 Her name got brought up all the sudden best app we ever seen put the video back up Is it mall dony the name? How have you not seen this? It's a good dab. Oat milk brand that's dangerous. Statue of Malky. So I've been trying to be a little healthier here at the start of the year.

Starting point is 00:45:00 which is now a legit nationwide 5G network. So I must take a break from the jokes here for a second and put on my serious voice, because I would never ever joke about a 5G network that has invested billions building 5G towers across the country. Not even once. Not even if Mr. Boost Mobile himself asked me to.
