Starbucks, it's never just coffee. This is the Dan Levator show with the Stugat's podcast. Man, football's been amazing.
Starting point is 00:01:28 The NFL's been incredible, and we get a double header tonight. Two really good games. You got Tampa Bay at Houston. You got the Chargers, at the Raiders.

Going to read just a few quotes here from Canello and Crawford, and then I'll leave it alone. Just a couple of quotes to give you the historical perspective on some of the stuff that happened this weekend that wasn't just football. Canello says, quote, I tried my best tonight, and I could not figure out the style. I think Crawford is way better than Floyd Mayweather, end quote.
Starting point is 00:02:25 And then this from Crawford, I'm the face of boxing now. I'm the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world like I've always been. What are you laughing about? I mean, just does he deserve that brand of the show? Yes, he does. Yes, I mean, he's undefeated. He made a great fighter look amateur. Crawford's older than Canello, and he made Canello look like he didn't know what he was doing.
Starting point is 00:02:46 And he can walk a supermarket fairly anonymously. That is correct. Nice life, huh? of the sport. Well, I don't know if you can be the face of the sport if your face can go out in public and not be bothered. Yes, good point. It probably gets recognized by one person.
Starting point is 00:03:00 Like, hey, parents. Put it up on the poll. Do you think Manu can go to Navarro and not be recognized? You'd be an idiot if you thought so. Put it on the poll at Levitard show. Face of boxing, Jake Paul, or Terrant. That's a blowout. What a ridiculous question.
Starting point is 00:03:14 I want to talk about a couple of other things because we were mentioning the Tush Push. They ran it on 12% of their plays. yesterday. If you like that... That's high. 12% of their offensive plays were the tush push. I like the fact that there is this unstoppable thing that teams need to scheme and get personnel to stop. And I don't think we should do away with it just because one team is really
Starting point is 00:03:37 good at it. What scheming is there? There's no scheme for that. Sign a sumo wrestler. Hey, low man wins. All right. We've heard that. There is a scheme. There's just one scheme. And I'm going to, I'm going to tell you now. I think you think it's an unstoppable play, but I'm going to bring up some news for from yesterday that will tell you how you stop that play. I associate the name I'm about to say
Starting point is 00:03:58 with how to stop that play. I learned the name that I'm about to say because it stopped the play that way. Judavian Clowning. I was introduced to him at South Carolina because he jumped over an offensive line and nuked a running back with the perfect timing. That's how I learned the name of a player
Starting point is 00:04:17 I would not have otherwise learned. He signed yesterday with the Cowboys And I just really enjoy the idea of Lidavian Clowny sitting around after week one waiting for his phone to ring. So he could, like, he knows that one of those calls is going to be he wins the lottery again. Somebody needs a pass rusher. He doesn't need to go to training camp. He doesn't have to be ready for week one. He is a mercenary of the highest order for $10 million, or now $6 million, you can get him to rush quarterbacks for you for a few weeks of season.
Starting point is 00:04:48 He's like Jason Statham over these last few years. just waiting for the call to ring for one last job. And it's only to play, like, a handful of plays a game. Pass rushing down. Yeah, it'll be like, what, a dozen plays? Mm-hmm. The Cowboys stay the best, too, because this is such a great Cowboy signing. You could get Jadavian Clownie to get you four sacks a season when he's 84 years old.
Starting point is 00:05:11 He'll be able to get around the-thor-10. He'll be waiting for that call at the nursing home. And Jerry Jones will still be making it. 40 years from now in that job. Greg Cody, you have an event coming up here. What are going on? For the Miami Herald, you are doing something for the Miami Herald. And I should let people know that Greg Cody has Ray Hudson on the latest episode of Greg
Starting point is 00:05:38 Cody finds out. He's got Ray Hudson, the best announcer in the history of South Florida on his show. And every day, until the World Cup, we are going to play. Ray Hudson goal calls. Gets around, Marellis, tucks it in, lifted by Di Maria! Genius! That's the only word you can't use.
Starting point is 00:06:02 They should name the constellation in the heavens after Lionel Nessie. Yeah, we actually asked Ray about his favorite Rayisms, and I didn't think he was going to answer. I thought he would just go, oh, there's so many. What a great interview. He gave us a bunch of those calls. We asked him his favorite players to call, and he just went on this. this four-minute thing of just going through all the players and just describing them only as Ray Hudson could.
Starting point is 00:06:25 I left that interview so happy because if you're into Ray Hudson at all, it was a great interview. Yeah, it was fun. And Ray and I go way back and we've sort of had parallel careers because we're the same age. And now, you know, I'm thinking of retirement and all that. And Ray just retired. So it was a little bit of emotion to the conversation. I get Ray to rip Chris Whittingham for his Panthers takes. Wait a minute.
Starting point is 00:06:49 Did you just break news here? Hold on a second. Did you just, you're thinking about retirement? Oh, I've been thinking about retirement for 71. A couple of years. And? Yeah. What's going on? Obviously, I haven't decided yet. I'm still doing it. But you know, a lot of people say, once you're thinking about it, it might be time. You never know. There's also only one activity after retirement. Yeah, that's what Bobby Bowden said. Look what happened to him.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Yeah, he was right. He died. Yeah, I know. No, don't retire. Let's not trick the people, though. We're talking about retiring from writing. You're never giving up your podcast. Well, probably not. Probably not. I've mentioned before my podcast is going to get the exclusive when I'm on my deathbed.
Starting point is 00:07:28 You're going to be interviewing me and, you know. Yeti and I will continue it when he's gone. Yeah, and my last word. And it will be the Greg Cody show with Greg Cody. Or without, actually. That would be the Greg Cody show without Greg Cody. Great. Have you ever thought, like, some people think about going back to school and picking up a new trade, a new career.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Have you ever given that any thought? No. Oh. No, I don't want to work that. You wanted to be a bus driver as a kid? I did. He wants to be a sanitary worker. He thinks it's a dream job to be a sanitary worker.
Starting point is 00:08:00 I also want to be an old-timey FM DJ spinning the records, introducing the latest from the doors. Go ahead. Take us like, WROK. Yeah, we're all going to close our eyes. The doors. No, I want to talk about this event tomorrow night, if that's okay. You're done promoting your other things.
Starting point is 00:08:19 now you're going to promote this thing? Well, I'm done promoting my pending retirement. Tomorrow night at Sports and Social in the Dolphin Mall, it's in Southwest Dade. If you all live down here, it's tomorrow night, Tuesday from 6 to 8 p.m. Myself, Omar Kelly and Isaiah Smalls, Dolphin Riders, and Jordan McPherson, who covers the hurricanes, are going to be there meeting people talking about the dolphins and the canes, and boy, what a disparate conversation that'll be. But if you're in the area, swing by, have a couple of drinks.
Starting point is 00:08:53 Say howdy, and we hope to see you there. On the Greg Cody show, he encouraged people also to fly in if they'd like. And where I jumped in and I was like, if you're local, this seems nice, don't fly in for this. I know. I was sort of kidding. But not all the way kidding. If you have all kind of money to spend and you've got nothing better to do tomorrow, I'd still wait.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Take a private jet, land and sweetwater. Unlimited income. If someone has unlimited income. Yes. It's still probably saving. In fairness, I'm. I mean, right there is Miami International Airport. You just take the A-36 over.
Starting point is 00:09:23 People do it all the time to go to Dolphin Mall. Usually it's, you know, people from South or Central America, they go. They buy a bunch of stuff and then they resell it. And it's a quick trip right like that. Yeah, you probably get a shuttle. So if you do want to see Greg, there is probably the opportunity. You fly into Miami International Airport, hop on a shuttle, head over to the dolphin mall, and they'll take you back, I think.
Starting point is 00:09:41 Okay, there's got to be someone who's willing to fly in. Like if someone were to fly in tomorrow night, just to meet Greg and ask a question or two about the dolphins. Dan will pay for it. Like, there's got to be something we could do for that person, right? Someone's got to be willing to fly in and see you. Okay, I'm going to make this deal. If you fly in...
Starting point is 00:10:01 Don't say this. And you show me your plane ticket. Go on. People never have plane tickets anymore. My wife always laughs to me when I say, do you have the ticket as we're going to the airport? Ticket. Fly in, make yourself known. I will give you, free of charge, a Greg Cody shows sticker.
Starting point is 00:10:19 It's a beautiful four-by-four-inch sticker. Wow. You can fix it. We can see one there. Make sure the flights from Japan aren't full. People are going to be coming from all over the globe. Do you have a sticker, Dan? I don't have one of those stickers.
Starting point is 00:10:32 There you go. Making fun over here. There's one right there. You could just steal it. Oh, yeah, this thing right here. You could have one of these. We've got to get on a plane. Yes.
Starting point is 00:10:40 Even though we're about to change our logo. Well, that's a rumor. Wow, there's just news everywhere. There really is. Is it after he retires? Well, surely he can't be retired. if he's changing the logo. Technically, those logos
Starting point is 00:10:51 will be worth more, no, once they're going to. We say, surely, but it might be the Greg Cody show without Greg Cody soon. We've already established that. Three huge news nuggets. Bombs.
Starting point is 00:11:01 Greg is thinking about retiring from writing. He has a succession plan in place for his podcast. And new logo. New logo. Yeah, a big event. And he's going to be appearing
Starting point is 00:11:13 tomorrow night at Dolphin Mall, and people are going to fly in, and if you fly in, you get a single sticker. Right. Plus, I fired the Dolphins Assistant Coach. It's been a busy Monday for me. It's a big one. Brady's announcement's got nothing on you.
Starting point is 00:11:26 There you go. What did he announce? He was teasing it on Fox. He was like, before we let you go, you got a big announcement tomorrow. He's like, it's something that I've been working on for several years. I'm very excited to check out this Raiders game. I will be announcing something big. Let's all guess.
Starting point is 00:11:40 I don't think he's coming back. Did you guys know that he has a 10-part series on Apple? Tom Brady does? And the reason I ask the question is because Tom Brady won more than Michael Jordan and can't and won't be remember the way Michael Jordan was. And I think most people don't even know that Tom Brady has sat down and done a 10-part series with Apple, not unlike Michael Jordan's 10-part series. I don't understand why he's not. I've already started correcting things by saying, I used to say, well, that person's a Michael Jordan a blank. Now I say that person's a Tom Brady a blank.
Starting point is 00:12:15 How has that not happened? And why has that not happened? Because Mike seems to be out in front of things that will not catch on there. He's got more things going on for him. Listen, he was drafted famously late-round draft pick. He's handsome and he's white. I don't know how this hasn't happened yet. He's boring.
Starting point is 00:12:33 Like he's been boring the whole time? Nah, Michael Jordan. He's less boring than Michael Jordan. But he talked in a way that created a narrative. He says, let's go! Yeah, he's just a. You said it. He's just like a bland white guy.
Starting point is 00:12:48 And he won a lot. Excuse me. He talks way more than Michael Jordan. If your argument is that he is publicly boring, Michael Jordan is the Tom Brady of being publicly broken. I don't mean that. I meant in the game. Like the way that Michael Jordan had a lore built up around him
Starting point is 00:13:05 in terms of the trash talk that he dished out to other competitors. In one-on-one, in the Olympics, all these things. I mean, like, what do we have from Brady? Until he was with the bucking ears. Tom Brady would talk so much shit on the field. Crazy. But then would shy away from it. What?
Starting point is 00:13:21 We shy away from it. What? We disagree. I feel like Mike, I'm kind of with Jeremy. Maybe Brady's been interesting the last couple years. Like, during his career, he was not. He was boring. He's not interesting now.
Starting point is 00:13:32 He's not interesting on the air. He talks more now than he did. But Michael Jordan doesn't. He's like mythical because you don't really get him anywhere. Right? So like you could just make Michael Jordan whatever you want Michael Jordan to be because he can't see Michael Jordan be anything else. It's the shoe.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Yeah, I mean, he's the big thing, too. It's the logo. It's the shoot. Nike, yeah. This episode is supported by FX's The Lowdown, starring Ethan Hawk.

Starting point is 00:15:30 McOverrated. This is the Dan Levitar show with the Stugats. When we're watching sports these days and someone is becoming better than everyone else, the way that you're watching Malik Neighbors be at wide receiver with limitations at quarterback. That game yesterday between the Cowboys and Giants was magical. It's not what I was expecting in any way. Brian Dayball went late in the game,
Starting point is 00:16:03 platooning quarterbacks on what was the best statistical game of Russell Wilson's life, at least in part because he has neighbors. Neighbors was double covered on one play. I don't know how they scored that touchdown. It was his second least impressive touchdown of the day because of the catch that he made earlier. How is it that the Giants have only one legitimate weapon and he's got more catches through 20 games than just about anyone who's played the position? How is someone so good at wide receiver that he plays on a bad offensive team and we're still all looking at him and saying, oh yeah, that guy might be the best receiver in the entire sport, totally unguardable, even though his offense always
Starting point is 00:16:45 stinks. Like his quarterback play, he's not one of the best receivers, any of us have ever seen, has gotten bad quarterback play the entire of his career, and through 20 games has more catches than just about anyone's ever had through 20 games. Russell Wilson has looked washed for so long that everybody's been clamoring for Jackson Dart. But yesterday, after the 48-yard touchdown to Malik Neighbors, which was his third deep passing touchdown of the game, game. This is per next gen stats. He completed seven of nine deep passes in the game for 264 yards. That's the most deep passing yards in a game that they've ever tracked. And it's in large part because Malik Neighbors is unguardable. Right. Like that doesn't mean that Russell Wilson,
Starting point is 00:17:28 you know, I mean it sounds weird to say, but it doesn't necessarily mean Russell Wilson a good game yes. No, that's my point. He can throw, he still throw the ball deep. Bad mistake in overtime. Right. He tried it won too many times and it led to the turnover that led to the game winning kick. But he's throwing it deep to a guy who is going to win those 50-50 battles. Like, Russell Wilson kind of stinks but he can still throw the ball deep and he's
Starting point is 00:17:50 got a really good receiver. Not since Josh Gordon, I think. Do we all concede? Like this is a dominant force of wide receiver with a quarterback that's closer to ass than elite. I also think it's because Malik Neighbors is disproportionately their big star in terms of targets. They don't have a great running back.
Starting point is 00:18:06 Their second receiver's not great. He's a one-man show. The second receiver at 140 yards receiving yesterday. Well, okay, that's fair. He was at the Dolphin game, and it was the first time that he's had to worry about Cowboys' Giants occupying that TV. And he's got retirement on his mind, too. Like, there's a lot going on. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 00:18:22 But would you agree that Malik Neighbors is by far their number one target? Yeah, easy. Easy. That dude strolled in the NFL, and he was already, like, a top 10 gifted wide receiver. But it's still crazy. No matter the amount of targets, like, this is not. this is an unusual thing you're witnessing and it's something that's special even compared to people who are special. I can target anybody in that Chiefs game with Patrick Mahomes and I wouldn't have gotten shit.
Starting point is 00:18:50 Like the idea that this guy with those limits on offense is putting up production numbers in his first 20 games that are completely unheard of and specifically what I saw from him yesterday where you're not supposed to be able to complete. the deep ball to somebody who the defense is double covering him because they keep getting beat on the deep ball and he still completes it when he's not open. And he's only six feet, by the way. It's not only six three, six feet.
Starting point is 00:19:21 Out of all the colleges that say, we're linebacker you, we're tied end you. No one touches LSC when it comes to wide receivers. Just the three best arguably in the NFL right now. All played very recently. This is why Brian Kelly's so mad at reporters because he's winning games on defense.
Starting point is 00:19:37 like this is the reason Brian Kelly doesn't want to be winning games with defense he doesn't want to be winning 20 to 10 he wants to be winning because his wide receivers are better than everybody else nobody associates Brian Kelly with defense what do you want me to tell you play the sound again of McDaniel
Starting point is 00:19:53 and what his whole soundtrack is going to be the entirety of this week as Greg Cody answers questions at Dolphin Mall from people who fly in for stickers to ask him whether this is a historically bad team that the dolphins have Ultimately, I look at absolutely everything falling on me, so I don't see, you know, that's the responsibility of a head coach that you go into knowing that. That being said, I'm very frustrated with, you know, collected, you know, there's some basically coaches and players that did not execute communication in a very dire period of the game with the game on the line, our communication.
Starting point is 00:20:37 education and our substitution was not up to par. And ultimately, that is my, you know, I hold all responsibility for all things. A lot of words. I didn't need all those words. I just needed that one sentence that he uttered that said that the entire world is falling in on his head and everywhere he looks, there are just things falling. Ultimately, I look at absolutely everything falling on me. See, McDaniel had the right to have the Brian Kelly attitude. Right? He's under so much pressure.
Starting point is 00:21:12 He should have been the one going, what do you mean by that? Why are you asking that question? But yet, he's fairly kind, even in humiliation. It is a humiliating time. There's no disputing that, is there? Right. I agree. No, there's no equivocating it.
Starting point is 00:21:27 It's an awful two-game start. You know the Carolina season's over. You know the Saints season is over. You know the Bengals. season is over, even though some of you are going to try and talk yourself into them being a playoff team. And I think we know the Dolphin season is over. We can't say this about many teams today, can we? Because we're not saying it about the Chiefs. Brown season's over. Brown season's over. Jet season's over. Who else do you have? Say that Carolina has an outside
Starting point is 00:21:52 shot, so they have to host a home game in their division. That is usually weird. Tennessee? They showed some grit. No, but Tennessee season is not over. Just because it's interesting. Yeah, you're interested in every game cam ward's playing their season's not never going to be over what yeah it's going to be over it's going to be over after 17 games after 17 games it's going to be i'm getting a little tired of all the adulation for cam ward whose statistics through two games are abysmal now i'm saying you can't just go by stats watch the game well okay he doesn't he's not he doesn't got a lot to work with right now i know they're a terrible team that's why i'm saying when you're talking about they're going to be worth watching
Starting point is 00:22:32 all year. You saw one play yesterday, though, that I didn't think he'd be able to ever do in the pros. I thought that that was just a college play, and we'd only ever see that as a college play. The one touchdown that Tennessee scored yesterday, I think that was also, was that not on 4th down? He's just
Starting point is 00:22:48 scrambling around, looping all over the place, and then doing something no quarterback in the league would have done. Nobody would have thrown it across their body like that. He also doesn't get away with it often and the strip sack that led to that game totally being over and over. It catches up to him. There's a reason why they say, don't do it.
Starting point is 00:23:05 Now, he just gets away with it more than other people because he doesn't stop trying it. But he threw across his body at Cal and it put Miami in a 21-point hole. Getting to watch on a weekly basis, your number one overall pick at quarterback, who is supposed to be your franchise savior. No matter how bad the team's record is overall, that's an exciting process for a fan base. Yeah, it's also exciting because, you know, don't know what you're going to get. He's reckless as he was at UM, and I'm not sure if that's going to fly as much for as long in the NFL. And I think if you're a Titans fan, you're loving some of his plays, but you're also sort of shaking your head going, wow, that's not a safe
Starting point is 00:23:44 quarterback. That's not a guy who we can really trust to not F up. But Dolphin fans should be watching Tua and feeling confident? I didn't say that. I mean, you didn't say that. Can we rank LSU receivers please. Jamar Chase is where on this list? Where's O'Dell Beckham on it? Neither one of them is number one, right? Justin Jefferson. Where's Brian Thomas on it? I mean, just since 2020, Brian Thomas is the fourth best
Starting point is 00:24:07 receiver to come out of LSU, because you have Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson and Malik neighbors all ahead of him. And you can rank those however you want. Beckham's fourth. Beckham started like neighbors did first 20 games and then got hurt. And I'm going to
Starting point is 00:24:23 reject what you guys are saying on him saying, well, he's targeted a lot. That kind of offense and that kind of production usually requires a good quarterback, good offensive line, another receiver, something, something. That kind of receiver, we're all looking at the Giants and are like, yep, Brian Dayball's going to be fired. He's going to get fired. That's not going to last very much longer over there, but we know they've got a bona fide receiver. And now they're trying to do the thing that everybody in the league wants to do, which is, is Jackson Dart a franchise quarterback? Because it's not going to be Russell Wilson.
Starting point is 00:24:58 But when you can do that on the road with a wide receiver, I don't care how bad Dallas's defense is. Russell Wilson, that's the, Russell Wilson has never thrown for that many passing yards. And the reason that he was able to do it is because the Dallas Cowboys simply had no answers for what I believe is the best receiver to ever come out of LSU. And I can't believe I'm saying that. I just can't believe I'm saying that when he's had no help. Like, he, Sequin Barclay, look at what Seyquan Barkley looked like when he was with the Giants.
Starting point is 00:25:28 He has no help for him to go into Dallas on a one o'clock game, which Dallas and New York haven't played in 20 years, and put on that performance when Dallas only has to stop him. Oh, it's only him and can't. Look, Malik Neighbors gets almost all of the credit, all right? But when Dallas does, like, when Russell Wilson never has even close to that game again this season, we could admit Dallas' defense is horrendous. But still, they were trying to double-team somebody who was beating them deep in a league where everyone's throwing at nine yards. Mahomes can't throw at 10 yards anymore.
Starting point is 00:26:02 Like he did it a couple of times yesterday and went 50-50 on wide-open deep threats. I think the three best receivers in the league right now are LSU guys. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase, Malik neighbors. And then, like, then you start talking CD-LAM. Then you start, even JSN in Seattle's like laying claim to that potentially. He can enter that conversation. For me, I'm on Ross-Team Brown, okay? but he's not top three.
Starting point is 00:26:24 The top three guys are L-S-U-Gue guys. Okay, St. Brown is okay. No, he's saying okay. He should be in the conversation. He was agreeing. Okay, it was an agreement. Second tier. He's no gout-gout, we can agree.
Starting point is 00:26:34 Yes, thank you. Not as fast. Why don't you tell people who gout-gout-gout is? I don't think his name is even gout-gout-gout. It is gout-gout. I had gout once. Yeah, so did my science teacher in high school, John C-Swallows.

This is an Australian name and is, what's the backstory on this? That cannot be, are we pronouncing that correctly? His first name and his last name are gout gout. Right, we are pronouncing it correctly.
Starting point is 00:28:16 His heritage is Sudan. His parents are from South Sudan. And apparently the family name was pronounced a little bit differently, but it sounded similar. And so they began calling them gout, gout because Americans know that word. And his dad's worried that he's going to be mistaken for the illness, the ailment gout. But at any rate, yes. Rich man's disease. Yeah, but there's no doubt doubt that gout gout gout is going to be the next big thing in track and field.

And when you were a king, you could have all the meat you want and all the liquor you want. That's why I got gout. Opulence. Is that why you got gout? That's an old person.

Starting point is 00:29:35 How about sweet? Did you get a suite on the road? I did, but we were not, I had a suite, but we were not in a great hotel this weekend. So yes, I had a suite, but it's like, eh, we're not good. What do you do this weekend? Because this weekend, are you here? Yeah. So what do you say, hey, you're not?
Starting point is 00:29:50 You're not achieving me that sweet. Daddy's still getting a suite. No, I don't want to stay in a hotel. Why not? A suite? Because I live in a mansion. He's in a mansion. Yeah, but who knows what you can do with that suite, you know?
Starting point is 00:30:00 What does that mean? I could sleep in it. What do we have a party? Yeah, you can. I mean, I have a party in my mansion. I'm going to stay home. We have Miami, Florida this week, so I don't have to travel. And I'm really excited about that.
Starting point is 00:30:10 We're going to be doing the show from inside the parking lot at the stadium. And yeah, this home game for me. That's right. They're all coming to me. I stay here. You come to me. No flying, though? You like to fly first class.
Starting point is 00:30:22 I do. No, I like to fly first class especially. But no, I did not fly first class this week. It wasn't available. Would you, if it was made available to you, they say, you know what, Zaz? We could fly you to Atlanta and back to Miami first class. What if I fly from four Lari Airport to Miami? Okay. First class.
Starting point is 00:30:35 Would you do the flight just to have that first class experience? No, because I'm not a stupid idiot. As a famous Santa Fe grad, you have a lot of friends from that Gainesville area. Okay. Again, I've never been to Santa Fe. And yes, I do have a lot of friends who are going to the game. It's very, very exciting. I want everyone to come and watch me and Amber Wilson
Starting point is 00:30:52 do the show Saturday from inside the stadium. That's going to be a lot of fun. Okay, enough promoting of your local things. Were there any interesting things that happened on your flight? Because you're always returning with details from these things. Okay, listen to this. Tell me if I'm weird. All right. Or if anyone us agrees with this. Confirm.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Can you at least let me say the scenario? So I'm not sitting first class. All right, let me put that out there. I'm not sitting first class. I'm on the way. I'm with the normals. I'm on my way to Knoxville on Friday. Okay. And a couple times in the flight, it's pretty stank. And like it's, Greg, it smells like someone took a shit on my upper lip, all right?
Starting point is 00:31:30 Like, there's something going on. Very vivid. Yeah. And this happening several times. We're on the third time and then it's a four time. The woman next to me, she's like getting upset about the smell. I don't complain. I'm not a complainer.
Starting point is 00:31:41 I'm just like, she thought you farted. Where do people normally shit on you? So she's upset. She smells terrible. She for sure thought you farted. I hope not. That's very embarrassing. And that, and like, I'm, I don't know, like, it's obviously an offensive smell.
Starting point is 00:31:55 I don't like the smell. It's gross to think that there are people farting around me. It's very disgusting. So finally you put your shoes back on. And then in the, across the aisle, in my row. There's a guy looking up whistling. There's a service dog. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:32:10 Oh, no. And so the guy looks over. Now, the dog did not take a dump on the plane, but the guy looks over. He leans over and goes, I'm really. sorry, my dog's been farting. What? Okay, so the thing, and I'm like, oh, wow, you know. And so the thing is, the thing that's weird is, like, I found
Starting point is 00:32:28 the whole thing, like, offensive that, like, a person is farting this many times on the plane. But once the guy admitted that it's his dog, it's like, I didn't mind it anymore. It wasn't that bad. Did you believe him? Oh, 100%. He knows his dog's smell? Like, what's happening there? Maybe he knows his dog gets nervous flying.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Yeah, you know what's happening? The guy's farting. Yeah, you know your dog's. You think it was the guy fording? I think the guy's definitely farting. of blaming his dog. You can't be so sure your dog farted four times. Yeah, you are. The smell was so bad. It's so disgusting.
Starting point is 00:32:56 But when I learned that it was the dog, I didn't mind it anymore. I was like, oh, okay, cute dog. No, I can relate. When Jump and Charlie breaks wind, he breaks glass. I mean, it's a pungent, identifiable owner. It was bad. Yeah, it is. I mean, dogs, man, they can do it.
Starting point is 00:33:16 They got stuff in them that comes out and it's... Go on. That's my gimmick. It's as bad as a human fart. That's my experience. Now, the cats, not so much. I've never smelled my cat. Put it on the poll at Lebitard Show.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Have you ever smelled a cat's fart? Put it on the poll at Lebitard show. Have you ever blamed your farts on the dog? And put it on the poll at Lebitard show. Do you know the smell of your dog's fart? So Charlie can let a pet is what you're saying. Yeah, he definitely can let a pet. And yes, I used to blame my dog.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Back when I farted, I stopped farting. Do you get, you did? Yeah, I'm a retired from farting. I'm a recovered fartaholic. Really? Yeah, Erlene will, my wife will tell you that. I used to fart routinely. I stopped.
Starting point is 00:34:00 And that's really one of the things that I'm the most proud of. What helped? Was like an addiction? Like, did you go to treatment for it or you just say today's a day? Give all the farders out there advice. Yeah. It's a matter of will. You're saying it's a matter of will and that you're proud of overcoming something that
Starting point is 00:34:18 you're saying is a choice. Would you go to meetings? Be like, I'm Greg Cody. I'm a faraholic. No, if they had those, I would have. But I've given up two things in my life. I've given up farting and cigars. Beer, not so much, not yet. But you're proud. You're proud. What happened? What did you change? I don't think this
Starting point is 00:34:34 is a matter of will, and I don't think most people can give up farting. It's not like Lent. Okay, I used to do it, you know, don't get me wrong. I wouldn't do it in a restaurant or on an airplane. But if I'm home, in the privacy of my own home, it's just the wife and I watching TV, I might give it a fart, you know, and she's like, what
Starting point is 00:34:52 was that, quit that. What, she wouldn't know what it was? Oh, she wouldn't know, of course, but you know, she's being polite saying, what is that? Does mom ever fart? They don't admit it when they do, the women. They? Yeah. Yeah. My wife does. Yeah. Really? My wife sometimes farts when she laughs. I don't think you can say.
Starting point is 00:35:09 Yeah, I'm making a stereotype. All right, yeah, I regret. I'm saying women don't admit it. If anything, I would say you're saying women are on equal playing field as men, they fart as well. That's what Christopher says. My wife farts. What he was saying is that as a gender, the entirety of the gender does not admit it.
Starting point is 00:35:27 It's an absolute that I'm not comfortable with. I want to ask no more questions, no more follows about anything that we're talking about. I have a Chauncey Swallows follow-up. Yeah, I'd like to know more about him. I do not have a high school teacher Chauncey Swallows, Mr. Swallows follow-up. The follow-up I do have from earlier in the show, though is. Greg Cody, with all
Starting point is 00:35:52 eternal sports celebrations at his disposal, said Jalen Waddle and his celebration is the greatest of all the celebrations in sports history. It did have a moment, the Waddle. It lacks a certain amount of perspective
Starting point is 00:36:08 when he's got 50 years of celebrations to choose from that he would choose the Jalen Waddle as the greatest of all the celebrations. When he caught a touchdown pass yesterday and didn't do the waddle. I was so let down. I thought about writing my entire column
Starting point is 00:36:24 about that, but I decided better of it. This is what has happened to the dolphins. He knows better with booing and banners flying in all over the stadium to do the waddle when he scored it to make it 12-7 because New England's missed two extra points. But then he had this
Starting point is 00:36:40 crazy celebration when Tyreek to, you know, two throws a terrible ball. Did you see Waddle's reaction to that? He acted like so. Like that doesn't happen very often. Because they all know that it's been a year since they've completed a 30-yard pass. It has. Unbelievable. Did you hear the announcer when they complete like a 24-yard? I'm like, well, it wasn't 30, though. I know what you guys are thinking. Still not 30. Tyreek Hill didn't like Omar Kelly's question about not having a 30-yard
Starting point is 00:37:06 catch for a year. You can ask Omar Kelly about it tomorrow night at Dolphin Mall with Greg Cody, who's going to be there answering all your dolphin questions. I would say the saddest part of my dolphin experience yesterday was getting up I was at someone's house so like probably six or seven of us watching the game I got up and gave everyone high fives when we forced our first pun of the season in the second quarter
Starting point is 00:37:28 third quarter apologies that's good baby steps it felt sad because I was just genuine we got a punt and then just the high fives from around the room a sad moment pathetic almost that game was such a disaster man it was so bad
Starting point is 00:37:44 it seems as though they're going to survive this though usually around now. It's a short week. Hear me out on this. If they are, because I'm so done with them being middle of the road, if you're just like, all right, if we're going to be bad, let's be bad. Don't you let everyone keep their jobs? Like, if they fire people, then there's a chance, like, someone comes in and spark something.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Like, they're bad right now. Let's let them ride this out. Like, I want the first pick. Keep McDaniel. Already there. I'm not ready to do that show just yet. I am ready to ask Greg Cody the question. When the Dolphins did get their first stop going back to last season in, I think I have
Starting point is 00:38:16 this number correctly, 3,412 drives. Do you say in the press box, punt? When the punt was in the press box, do you do your punt every time there's a punt? No, I did not yesterday. I think I have. You know, if I'm in a particularly a bullion mood, for some reason, I already know what I'm going to write. It's half written in the third quarter. I might give it a punt, punt. Yeah. Punt. Punt. Punt. It has to be a little air in it. Punt. Punt. Because it sounds like a punt.
Starting point is 00:38:52 It sounds like a football hitting the foot. Yes, it does. Yeah. Punt. The Dolphins made that happen twice this season. I know. Punt. Greg Cody fired a special teams coach, and he only did it because the guy got in the way of the column. After they had a return. 90-yard return.
Starting point is 00:39:07 Punt. Un-excusable. Punt. There'll be plenty more punts this year. Don't worry about that. Punt. You can't predict that confidently. Yes, I can't with it.
Starting point is 00:39:19 You couldn't have predicted before. Now they'd have two this season. That's true.
