Out of network Hey folks, it's Mike Ryan and if you're watching our show, you've probably known your boy has undergone a little bit of a body transformation and I gotta tell ya Peloton has helped me on my fitness journey. It got the ball rolling for me because I watch my wife on the Peloton, she takes all these
Starting point is 00:01:31 great classes, she has her favorite instructors, I listen to the music, I'm a big music guy, gets me fired up, makes me want to take part in this fitness phenomenon known as Peloton.

Telling you, I'm better for it, have it in my office, sometimes I can put on the baseball game, sometimes I can put on a soccer match, some other times I'm totally locked in on an emo playlist.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Find your push. Find your power with Peloton at OnePeloton.com. This is the Don LeBattor Show with the StuGuts Podcast. Andrew, good seeing you. I am so glad you are not a Hollywood diva. I have seen you watching poor Amin Elhassan sweat in front of you because I feel so bad for Amin there. I mean, please, like nobody saw what you were going through there where the show careened
Starting point is 00:02:41 into you. Everything that got to you was not working right because Wah Bellamy is wearing the the outfit that can't allow him to do these things correctly And so it's what we're left with is you naked in front of Andrew Santino Performing a comedy bit that has gone south then it's not just that in front of any comedian It would have been bad But I'm such a huge fan Andrew Andrew Santino and the Bad Friends podcast. Like it was anyone else.
Starting point is 00:03:06 It was Carlos Menci, I'd be like, ah, I'll take that out. It's just brutal, but what we just did to you is cruel. And I'm guessing that he would say, yeah, comedians kinda have to suffer on, it's gonna be not funny in public and it's gonna hurt. So Andrew, welcome, I'm sorry that you had to witness all that. That's okay, I love to watch people bomb. That's one of my favorite things to do
Starting point is 00:03:27 is see other people just really tank it. The list was great. It just went on for about, I don't know, seven minutes too long, but it was good. Condense it next time. Just a little bit. Trim the fat. Yes, at any point. I was yelling at my thick-tongued producer to do that during that segment, but he was too busy telling me the hockey and basketball playoff start, and he doesn't have time for the show. You understand? Also, the Panthers outfit, what is,
Starting point is 00:03:54 is this punishment, what is this, what is that? You are exactly right, this is punishment. I have to, all the gear. Every last run, these pads and the jersey and everything, I'm wearing it right now because of a punishment. Show him the skates I got skates as well And he's saying it's hard to do his job that way of executive producer because it is a physical punishment
Starting point is 00:04:12 Comedy That's right comedy Roy Yes sir Roy, given what's going on right now both culturally and economically and don't you think you have a case here to be made for employee abuse? And I mean, I would if we had an HR here. Roy, Roy.
Starting point is 00:04:29 Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy.
Starting point is 00:04:35 Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy.
Starting point is 00:04:42 Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Roy, Roy. Don't talk like that man. This is a family show. Okay Andrew thank you for joining us you have rocketed It's fun to see because you're doing it with your best friend and and you're just laughing all day every day and now you've got A new podcast and I'm pretty sure it's a scam from what I can see. I think you're just Want to golf a lot and so somebody's gonna Somebody's gonna pay for it?
Starting point is 00:05:05 I'm living the dream. So somebody's gonna pay? Yes, I'm living the dream. All right, so explain it to me please because this is cheating here. So you're just gonna feed your golfing addiction. Yeah, well look, I went on tour for two years with Bobby Lee so I had to stare at Bobby Lee in his underwear
Starting point is 00:05:23 for two years on a tour bus. So I think I'm owed a little bit from the universe for giving this love of comedy around the world. And so after two years of touring and I shot my special that's going to come out on Hulu in September with Peyton Manning's company, Omaha Productions. Shout out to them. I wanted to take some time and I had pitched this golf show. I said, you know, I want to do this one whole walk and talk with celebrities, athletes,
Starting point is 00:05:49 golfers called No Bad Lies. And I give them deliberately bad lies and all the while they tell me a time where life gave them a bad lie and how they recovered. And it was it was praised by many people in the business. They thought, oh, that's a great idea. And I said, I'm gonna do it. So the first two episodes are out right now with Cam Smith and John Rahm.
Starting point is 00:06:10 I'll give you a couple of sneaky names that are gonna be on the show. Charlie Day, Michelle Wee, Michael Phelps. We've got a host of people, not just golfers, but also athletes and celebrities and a few sneaky, you know, a few sneaky ones that are pretty impressive that I will say will come out later in the season. But yes, it's a way for me to play golf.
Starting point is 00:06:32 So what, Dan? Oh no, I actually think now hearing you talk about it, you've changed my mind by the way that you talk about it because I'm assuming that one of the things you're trying to do in the comedy space is show a vulnerable thing to people while also golfing. Like for you as a comedian to be able to talk to athletes or whomever about like, hey, can we talk about our feelings here for real?
Starting point is 00:06:55 Like it seems like that's something that you would do because you're interested in making good content. You're like, you're not gonna just fart around out there and golf. No, no, we are. the depth of the show is that, that, um, I like this, this philosophical, you know, tie in of golf is like life, that it's gonna give you a lot of bad lies. A lot of people go through, you know, a, a divorce, a loss, um, you know, tragic things happen in our lives or just small hiccups.
Starting point is 00:07:23 They don't have to be traumatic, but just like in golf, you have to find a way to recover. And I just, I like this philosophy. I like this, you know, it's not that comedic sometimes, but I just, I like that world of how do you recover in life? We're all put in bad situations and how do you get out of it? We've had some funny stories. We've had some heartfelt stories.
Starting point is 00:07:42 I'm excited for people to see the rest of of the season it gets really good and it's funny you know all the while i'm goofing and taking shots of myself and it's also nice to see me take shots at you know professional golfers who have to be kind of tied up all the time can you tell me why it is that you disappeared i was very disappointed in you and i am happy for you and your success but thought we had a deal for you to be like a chiefs correspondent during the run
Starting point is 00:08:09 during because your friends with kelsey and your and your friends we have homes and you talk trash uh... to your fan base by saying i'm allowed to be friends with the chiefs but something got lost along the way and then you disappear was it the last or it. Was it the loss? I went on tour. Was it the loss? No, no it wasn't the loss. No, I just been on tour for so long. I'm trying to make money. I'm not like you. I don't have a big fancy studio with 19 employees that you can yell at and lash out whenever things aren't going your way and whenever a bid isn't going
Starting point is 00:08:39 right. I hear you in the headphones just ruining these people's egos. I mean it's unbelievable. I mean look what you did to Wah. You think Wah is going to go home tonight and feel good about this? He's going to sit in his kitchen and eat cold soup like he does at night. And this is going to hurt. This is going to hurt Wah. Nod your head if this is hurting. Yes. This hurts Wah. He can't even nod his head because of this neck brace you've got him in both physically and metaphorically. Wah, if you need help getting out of there, can you close your fist? Can you close your fist like this?
Starting point is 00:09:07 Put your thumb in your fist? Yeah, do it with the glove. Thank you, Waa. Very good. You know what, Dan? You know what, Dan? I get it. He does take direction well.
Starting point is 00:09:15 I see what you're doing with him. This makes sense. Yeah. Fantastic. You calling him Waa. Are you a hockey fan? Are you in any way a hockey fan? What are your sports allegiances? How do they work? You know, look, I like hockey. I would never
Starting point is 00:09:31 claim to know a lot about it. Is the reference to, I mean, I know Patrick Wah. I know that. Well, that's what we were doing, but that's why I was laughing so hard at you calling him wah again every time because his name is Roy. Well, I have to. I play into the bit. You give me the bit, I'm going to play into it. No, I like, I do like hockey. I mean, look, I was a, I'm supportive of the Blackhawks. The Canaan Taves era was great.
Starting point is 00:09:54 I think Bedard is one of the greatest young players I've ever seen. I think he's been dealt kind of a little bit of a tough hand to be honest with you. People have their opinions about his attitude, but I'm supportive of the Hawks and I do like hockey, but you know, basketball, baseball, and football are my, that's my trifecta.
Starting point is 00:10:11 That's the upper echelon. By the way, speaking of which, I went to the Cubs game to watch them smack around the Dodgers 16 to nothing. One of the greatest games I've ever seen live in my entire life. It was incredible. I mean, I was laughing.
Starting point is 00:10:23 I was just cracking up every time we were up every time we were adding another one. Laughing at your Hollywood friends? Like laughing, what is happening there? Why are you laughing? I was just like, at some point I wasn't even cheering. I was just cracking up at how embarrassing this was that the returning World Series champs are getting smacked around by a hodgepodge of guys that they thought couldn't put up a fight against them in the series here.
Starting point is 00:10:47 It's early, I know it's early in the season, but still it was wonderful to watch. Wonderful to watch live. Go Cubs go. Hey Andrew, quick question for you. Our show tries to be a great Yes Ann show, we're not. You are excellent at Yes Ann. What are some tips you can give our poor show to get better at it? Well, Jeremy Tashay, Tashay.
Starting point is 00:11:07 Yeah, that's right, wow. That was impressive. When you were in that two shot here with him, right when you said we're not that good at being a Yes And show, he did this. What? That's like the number one rule you don't do. Jeremy, that's the opportunity for you to go,
Starting point is 00:11:21 see, there you go, that's the opportunity for you to go, yes, we are bad, and I'll tell you why. And then you go into why you guys are so bad, why you don't deserve your job, that's where it gets funny, that's where it gets clever. No, I'll never admit I'm wrong, no, absolutely not. You'll never admit you're wrong? No. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:11:35 I've learned at the teet of Mike Ryan. Teach them, Andrew, Andrew please teach them, please. Let me interview Tashay real fast. Tashay, where are you from? I'm from down here in South Florida. Stuttered, he stuttered right away. He got nervous, he thought about it. He was gonna say what local area he's actually from.
Starting point is 00:11:50 Then he did this like broad regional encompassing South Florida. He didn't want me to take a shot at the neighborhood. Where is it? Where are you from from, Tashay? I am from Westin, Florida, which is an upper middle-class suburb of Fort Lauderdale. There we are.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Wait a minute. We like it. Wait, are you a surgeon? Can you do that please to him with every question you ask? Oh, sure. So upper middle class from outside of Fort Lauderdale. And dad did what for a living? My father was a financial advisor.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Thank you for asking. You look like a kid of a financial advisor. I know I do. The way you hold your shoulders looks like a kid whose dad, you know, was earning really good coin. Was mom stay at home, Tashay? Oh, of course. Yeah, she stayed at home.
Starting point is 00:12:38 This kid got, you know, it's so funny about this guy. Wow, turn around real fast. Look at this guy and stare at him this whole segment. Tashay, Tashay is the kind of guy whose mom had food ready when he got home with his friends after school. She cut the crust off all his sandwiches. Tashay never had dirt on his shoes. He always walked in the middle of the road. And when anybody was doing something up to no good,
Starting point is 00:13:01 he'd go, guys, I don't think that's a good idea. That's Tashay. Oh, that's the most accurate thing you could have said the whole time. He still does that. He is unbelievable. I can feel this guy. I can feel this guy from a mile,
Starting point is 00:13:11 I can feel him through the computer. Tashay, I can't wait to meet you when I come down there. I love you, I'm just having fun with you. No, no, no, no. I love you too, no, this is great. No, don't be soft, you don't love him. Thank you, Andrew. I don't.
Starting point is 00:13:23 You will, once you meet me, you'll really love me. That's what happened here. Everyone, once they got to know me, they really fell in love. Andrew, Andrew, I don't love him. You just, you don't. You will once you meet me. You'll really love me. That's what happened here. Everyone, once they got to know me, they really fell in love. Andrew, Andrew, you saw through him and yeah. Where'd you go to college? How about that Dan? Where'd he go to college, Tashay? Surprise here, went to a state school,
Starting point is 00:13:37 University of Central Florida. Oh, I understand a little bit more. I gotta tell you, that grew on me just a little bit. That grew on me just a little bit. I got a little bit of love grew on me just a little bit. I got a little bit of love for you there. UCF is good. Good for you.
Starting point is 00:13:49 Okay, we'll take that. And then can I guess out of three, I'm going to give three guesses and I'll be done. Three cars that I think he might drive. Let me get the camera on Tashay one more time. Hold on, hold on. Right now, three cars you think he might drive? Yeah, I want to guess what I think he might drive in three guesses.
Starting point is 00:14:06 Do any of us know though, so we can know the payoff? Do any of us know what he actually drives? Can someone write it down? Can someone give it to me? Like, what's the payoff here? Do any of us know what the car is? We know that. We know.
Starting point is 00:14:18 We're not gonna say it out loud. Obviously, Andrew has to guess, but we know. Okay, I'm gonna guess. For fun, I'm gonna say a Mini Cooper. Could you seem like that kind of guy a little cutesy-poozy parking around a Mini Cooper. Oh man I love the Mini Cooper. Well it seems like it's easy to parallel. No I don't drive it but I love it. Hold on hold on don't say it. Three guesses just Mini Cooper is number one. Number two I would say is a it's something humble, something in the realm of like a Honda Accord, something
Starting point is 00:14:47 reliable, humble, something in that regard, because that gets you to and then I would say I would say you're oh so well then you know what you are, Teshe, you're in the Hyundai world you're a Hyundai driver, you like Hyundai. And based on your look, I'm gonna guess it's that town in down south Arizona. You're a Tucson. You're a Tucson. No way! Hyundai Tucson.
Starting point is 00:15:19 You're right. Unbelievable. That even, it even has a Schitt's Creek sticker on the back of it. Oh my God. You would've gotten there eventually, man. You would've gotten there eventually. You would've figured that out. So you're saying, I love Tashay.
Starting point is 00:15:35 I'll see you when you're down in Miami. I love Tashay. I'll see you when I'm down in Miami. I really do. I'll bring Wa along for the ride as well. All right, so Wa will have to go dress like this, yes? What? No, yes, no, he looked pretty good walking into the room.

Don't let him fool you he said in the break that he's jittery. This is the Don Lebatar Show with the StuGats. Can you do this with anyone else in the room?
Starting point is 00:20:06 Surely, I don't know how you surgically did that to Just Tashay. I don't think you can do that to anyone else here, could you? Well, what's the redheaded gentleman's name with the Marlins hat on? I'm Chris. How's it going, man? I think he could do this with everybody in the room. I do believe so. You're a hero of mine.
Starting point is 00:20:20 I do like Chris. A ginger hero of mine. Chris, I like you a lot. I feel your vibe. What are we, are you tall? I can't tell cause you're sitting down. Are we anywhere between? Five 11.
Starting point is 00:20:31 Five 11. Oh, he's doing that thing. Right. So he's five 10. He's trying to sniff six feet. I know how that goes. He's trying to sniff six feet. These guys that are five 10.
Starting point is 00:20:41 I thought. They always claim that. I thought no one was five 11, right? Everyone who's five, everyone who's five and five 11 is six feet. Correct. No, everyone is 11 is actually five 10 and every guy that says they're six one is actually six feet. That's, that's what it is.
Starting point is 00:20:59 That's, that's truly the way it breaks down. Damn it. And I got to tell you, Cody, I know you're five 10 and can I just guess, can I just guess for the sake of it? I'm not taking a shot at you. Two, two, two six. Wow, man. A little lighter actually. I think a little lighter.
Starting point is 00:21:17 Good for you. But not by much. Two 16? No, that's what you meant. No, no, two 16? No, not two 16. You said you said 26, right? Did your audio break down? 26 is what you said. I said 226. How much do you weigh? Oh my bad. You you're really close. I thought you said 260. We all thought you
Starting point is 00:21:38 said 260. Yeah, I'm like 230. I'm like 230. 235, 236, you mean? This guy sees right through me. You keep falling into his traps. He gets you into his web, which is the question. Like he cares about you and he toys with you cause he doesn't care about you. I care about you very much. I care about you very much.
Starting point is 00:22:01 And I will say something about this guy. He's married. And what I can feel about this guy is he's married to a woman who is and a cliche But so far out of his league. It's hilarious. I bet you when you guys meet her everybody goes. That's Cody's wife Oh my god. That's what they all say behind his back when they have that second No, they just say it to me like they don't really My back yeah all the time anytime anytime my wife is shown on social media. You also get the added bonus of,
Starting point is 00:22:27 oh look, she cares for a giant toddler. That's right. It takes care of you. All right, so I'm gonna guess in three guesses what Coty drives. You know, okay, so my first genuine guess is a truck. My first guess is a truck, because he looks like he might wanna get in and out of a truck, you know? Full-sized guy, might wanna get in and out is a truck. My first guess is a truck because he looks like he might want to get in and out of a
Starting point is 00:22:45 truck. You know, full-sized guy might want to get in and out of a truck, but it's not a truck. That's okay. That's fine. It's got to be something standard then. We're going to go back to just a sedan, maybe a regular sedan or a coupe or a little coupe, a nice coupe. Are you a Japanese car guy?
Starting point is 00:23:05 You know what, he's gotta be like a, either a Lexus or an Acura. No! Come on! That's unbelievable, man. With someone's mic on. This is ridiculous. He can't do this.
Starting point is 00:23:17 That's crazy. That's crazy. I drive an Acura. That's crazy. How are you doing this? That's ridiculous. You can go on the road. I can feel it.
Starting point is 00:23:23 He can go on the road as a magic act. He can be a traveling salesman for golf and like a carnival act. Could you do it to a meme? Like here's one of the things, look, this dude is doing a lot of groundbreaking comedy and he's worked with some really, really talented people. But the project he does with Bobby Lee,
Starting point is 00:23:41 like about real friendship, they crash cultural stuff because they really love each other the way no one else can, no one else in the sphere does because he learned about working with Larry David and learned working with Lil Dicky. And so this thing that he does with Bobby Lee is wildly funny.
Starting point is 00:24:02 And what are you guys laughing at? Is Bobby's dad here? No, I love when he does Bobby's dad. Bobby's dad's funny. And what are you guys laughing at? Is Bobby's dad here? No, I love when he does Bobby's dad. Bobby's dad's funny. We're fans of the show. Oh, thank you very much. Well, Bobby's mom is my best impression, but Bobby's dad was a special, special man
Starting point is 00:24:20 who would hit him with golf clubs. So the irony of me doing a golf show is that Bobby's father would smack him around with golf clubs. So the irony of me doing a golf show is that Bobby's father would smack him around with golf clubs, that's his memory of golf. So I'm excited to get Bobby on the show, teach him how to golf, but I'm afraid he's gonna have these traumatic flashbacks and have PTSD from getting smashed with a nine iron
Starting point is 00:24:38 over the head in the morning. It's actually ethically wrong what you're doing that Bobby Lee would have that as his lifestyle and it would turn, you making fun of his father would turn into you roaming the earth with celebrities, golfing with them. Yeah, yeah, well you know what, I put up with him for a long time.
Starting point is 00:24:57 You live on a tour bus with Bobby Lee for a good year and then you tell me you're not owed a ticket into heaven, you know, a slot, a seat in there, because after all I put up with for that entire time. But he's, look, he's my best friend, I love him, and what we've created together has been incredible, and I'm so happy about it. We also have an animated show that we're doing together
Starting point is 00:25:20 that we're creating based on our show, so we're making some moves outside of that show and we just kind of want to keep growing the brand and having a good time. That's, you know, at this point in my life and my career, I just want to have fun. I just, we've worked hard. I just want to keep having fun now.
Starting point is 00:25:33 I want to do what you guys are doing. I want to have a good time with my friends every day. And why? Yeah, and why? I don't think. Andrew, does Benny Blanco really take a boat to Europe or is he just messing around? No, he did for a long time. He was afraid. He was afraid to fly for a very long time now. I think now he does
Starting point is 00:25:49 Finally fly but I'm sure you know, I'm sure Selena's got him on some private jet So I'm sure he's I'm sure he's on her jet or whatever spaceship that everyone's using now, right? Are people getting into spaceships now? That's the new thing all these celebrities I saw this are getting into spaceships can't wait. Leave them up there next time they go up Just leave them up there. Well, what's the thing thing. All these celebrities I saw this are getting into spaceships. Can't wait, leave them up there. Next time they go up, just leave them up there. Well, what's going on? Did anyone make you mad? Did Katy Perry, Jessica was unreasonably mad
Starting point is 00:26:14 at Katy Perry going up. You're just mad that they're wasting money? No, I just think it's extremely out of touch. I think it's like, I saw like Emily Ratajkowski had a post online that was like, you just don't like it that women and women of color are occupying these spaces where they're not usually seen. It's like, no, dude, the economy is upside down. People can't pay rent. Nobody gives a shit about celebrities, sorry, going to space. And it just doesn't make sense. It's. This is such an out of touch moment in time
Starting point is 00:26:46 when people are scared of what's happening economically and then you're sending up famous people in hair and makeup to float around for a while. It just feels like, where are you? Do you have any reasonable outlook on what's actually happening? But who cares? Leave them up there. If anybody wants to go to space, leave them up there. This is crazy enough. Down here is crazy. Whenever somebody says,
Starting point is 00:27:07 oh you don't like fantasy movies or fantasy TV shows, no, Earth is nuts enough. You ever been to Detroit? It's crazy, you know what I mean? Go to Toledo. It's nuts. That's, that's, it's crazy enough. Did you just apologize for cursing because you're rage-filled about what's happening in society today? How dare you? I'm trying to stay clean. I'm sorry. I'm trying to be clean No, but no, but how can you not be mad that I can I can laugh with you? But I can also point out hey out of touch guy you're talking about people celebrity feelings while golfing with them go help the homeless
Starting point is 00:27:42 Hey, wait a minute. I do a lot for charity. I do a ton for charity. And I will tell you this. This fall, I'm going to be headlining a special Olympics for charity softball event where we're using 16-inch, no gloves, Chicago-style softballs, and you pay a little bit of money and you get to hit home runs off of your favorite comedians and celebrities. You get to come hit a couple of jacks out of the park on us, including and not limited to dunk tanks and all sorts of fun stuff. And you can embarrass your favorite comic,
Starting point is 00:28:14 celebrity, whatever. So I'm, I'm always trying to do the right thing for community and others. I'm trying to uplift. I do my part. I'm not just sitting in space Dan. I came on this show This is a favor. You know what I mean? I'm doing this just for you just make you look good just for me It's not oh, I thought we were celebrating bad lies together You know Andrew speaking of speaking of charity have you ever needed tickets to a really important show and You needed your friends to help you out and getting them Interesting. I've helped a lot of other people get tickets. I mean, I often will get a text message going, Hey, hate to bug you, but Sebastian Maniscalco is going to be in town and I'd really love to see him.
Starting point is 00:28:54 And then I got to text Sebastian and go, I'm sorry to do this. Is this okay? I've got, I've helped other people get tickets very, very often. I don't know the last time I've had someone else get me tickets but what's the what's the nature of the beast of this? Well next week, week from tonight and a week from this Saturday, Pearl Jam is here in Hollywood Hard Rock Live. Very tough ticket. Some would say even more difficult than Taylor Swift, Andrew. I don't know if some would say that. I think that's that's not even an argument. I think Taylor Swift is probably the most valued ticket in the world in the box office would show that. Not gonna say that I don't love a good Better Man jam
Starting point is 00:29:30 by Pearl Jam, but I will say, yeah, so good. Are you looking to go to the show? Do you want me to reach out to someone for you? Is that what you're really doing? Wow, okay. No, wait a minute, how did this happen? That blows up our plan. Now we're cooking.
Starting point is 00:29:44 That's not an easy ticket though. It's a 4,000 seat venue. So it's a small venue. And you think you can just, you think you live in such space rarefied air, out of touch with humanity. That you can pick up a, you can text someone and say,
Starting point is 00:30:00 hey, tell Eddie I need tickets. Not me personally. I'll have one of my assistants do it. Marco, Sheila, Gina, or Steve will do it. They're all here right now. And one of them will text Eddie personally for me. I don't need to do any of that kind of stuff. So what is the best move?
Starting point is 00:30:20 If you were trying to impress somebody right now, because you're hanging out with Mahomes and Kelsey, because life needs to be about fun and golfing. If you had to impress somebody right now with Clout, how do you do it? Oh my God. I don't need to impress anybody. I'm already married.
Starting point is 00:30:34 It's over for me. So I mean, I don't know, who do I need to impress? My friends? I mean, I barely have them anymore. I'm trying to think of who I would need to impress. My father is the only guy we're always looking for approval from.
Starting point is 00:30:44 And when I, I sung the seventh inning stretch at Wrigley last season was the moment for my dad. I will tell you, I will give you a little brag, a little tiny, beautiful brag. I went to the Masters for the first time in my life. It was amazing. And I was offered a chance to perhaps play Augusta, which was unbelievable. So without getting
Starting point is 00:31:14 into too much detail, because as you know, it's quite private and interesting, but I was given the opportunity to hopefully play as an invite. So Stu gots around here has gotten on the course it is celebrity elite uh... still got to the famously bad liar around here in honor of your pat uh... your podcast no bad lies we'd like to play a game with you would you uh... at be willing to entertain uh... four lies from still got so i believe him to
Starting point is 00:31:40 be the greatest liar in sports media can we who got who would you guys nominate to Santino? Nationally in the time that we've been doing this 20 years who is seen as the greatest liar in sports media Stu gots has to be on the Mount Rushmore, correct? If there's only one person that Mount Rushmore then yes, it's just him So there's no second person famously known as a liar in the sports media. Does LeBron count because he does podcasts. Okay LeBron count are you willing to play this game with us? I am I wonder every time I see a LeBron clip I wonder if he ever read any of those books that they had him on camera. He read the first page. I was like man
Starting point is 00:32:20 he's got to write up a book report he read the first couple of pages yeah that's right I'm ready to play give me the first couple of pages. Yeah, that's right I'm ready to play. Give me the lie. Let me see All right, so this is Stu got you tell us whether this is a good lie or a bad lie So today it was all over the place. I was in a service lane I was in the 836 line all the way to the end and cut people off to get back into onto 95 And I saved myself like ten minutes, but a cop saw me and he pulled me over and he asked me Hey, how long ago did you know you needed to be in the lane? You're in now because you just cut everyone off. You could have caused an accident and I said I got to be honest
Starting point is 00:32:53 I don't come down this way often. I live up in Parkland. I have a big meeting down in Miami I said this is the first time I've been down here in six months and I probably won't come back down here for another six months I had no idea. I told him So these roads aren't familiar to me. He'd said none of that to the cop. The cop pulled him over and was like, what are you doing? And he was like, I'm so sorry, officer. I'm so sorry. Handed over his information, sat there quietly. Did not have any of that banter with the cop. No chance. Not even a little bit. We really, we know the truth. The cop was like, what did you think? What were you doing? He's like, oh, I'm so sorry. I'm running late to this thing. He was really sweet and polite. He turned on his like,
Starting point is 00:33:27 you know, how you talk to your grandma voice. He was not combative like that to the officer. I don't believe that for a heartbeat. No chance. Lie. Okay, bad lie. The details. He couldn't fool you with any the drowning of the details. He thinks he's fast with six months here and da da de da da da da and no. Watch that right now. So yesterday when I was coming home from the airport, I actually got pulled over on the way home because I got in late last night from Vegas.
Starting point is 00:33:50 My flight was delayed and I was rushing home because my wife had been sick for a couple of days straight and I was coming home and I was flying down the side and I clipped like a car in my neighborhood. I clipped like part of the mirror. I went and I rang the doorbell of the person who was in that house. They said, that's not my car. And so then I wrote this long note about apologizing. I was rushing home and my wife is sick.
Starting point is 00:34:13 And I wrote this really detailed note about the whole thing and left them my phone number. And I got a text this morning, I'll show you guys. I got a text this morning saying, don't worry about it, big fan. Cause I had signed my name at the bottom. What do you think about that? Okay, so it's Stugatz, LeBron, and Andrew Santino.
Starting point is 00:34:29 Total lie. None of that stuff happened. None of that stuff happened. That's easy to do. You just ramble and ramble and let your mind wander in these little spots until you find it. That's not true. Stugatz, that was a lie.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Lie, lie, lie. Let's check the next one. Good lie or bad lie? Certain days I whistle better than other days. Like if you catch me on the right day, I'll be able to whistle. I just can't whistle today. Easy one, I believe that.
Starting point is 00:34:51 I'd love to hear him whistle in general, but I do believe that he can't. He's having a tough whistle day. I guess he's having a tough whistle day. I don't know how privileged you have to be for whistling to be the hiccup of the day where that's the only issue you have. Most people are going to their second job in the afternoon just to pay rent.
Starting point is 00:35:09 This guy's having a tough whistle day. Good God. You just described and complained about it. Yeah, heard his lips from the cigarette. He's not even here. Tough whistle day. Not only is he not here, Amin had to do the weekend observations with you a month ago because he's not here.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Poorly. No, you did good. You did good. Let's get to another good lie or bad lie. Cabin, attention cabin, attention. Do we have sound for this? Do we have any other? Thank you.
Starting point is 00:35:42 Listen. Well done, Mike. That was very fast. They have asked for volunteers to get off this plane because they have overbooked this plane and no one volunteered. So they went to the computers and I was one of the people selected to get off this plane. Unfortunately, I have bad news for everyone on this plane. My grandmother is on her last breath. She is on her deathbed. And I need to be there tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:36:09 She means so much to me. She, along with my mom, because there was an unfortunate situation in my family where my dad left us at a very early age. So she helped raise me. And I need to have one final conversation with her. So if anyone, out of the kindness of their hearts, would volunteer to take whatever
Starting point is 00:36:28 Vouchers United is offering and just wait one more night, you'll be here one more night, and then you get on tomorrow's plane, it would mean the world to me. And by the way, I'll throw in some extras as well. Nice. I'll throw in a hat, maybe $100, and maybe a Dan Leventhaler t-shirt.
Starting point is 00:36:43 A hat? A hat. I mean, judging by what I think I know about this gentleman, his grandmother died 20 years ago. I mean, this is not even like a remotely believable lie. How old is this man? How old is he? Now he's 50 something.
Starting point is 00:37:00 Yeah, 50, my grandmother's still alive. His grandma died in 96. Multiple times. What are you talking about? Yeah. Look, all of our grandmothers have been dead multiple times, but you can't use it when you're in your 50s. That's way gone.
Starting point is 00:37:13 You could have said, if he really wanted it believable, he should have said, my mom isn't doing well. My mother. You can't do grandmother when you're in your 50s. I believe that. Not at all. Stugots, that's bad. And also his name was selected, I don't believe that for a heartbeat, that it just so happens
Starting point is 00:37:30 that his name was selected at all these people. Where does he sit when he sits, Dan? Is this a first class guy? Is he only in first class? Yes, he's only in first class, yes. Again, another lie of privilege. They're not taking off the first-class guy they go for they they go for the easy shot they go for the guy in thirty eight c whose cramped between you know someone eating an egg salad sandwich and a child that is diaper hasn't been changed in in three days that they go for that poor bastard the guy that like would would need to get to where he's going because he's got something
Starting point is 00:38:02 important not for old old first-class still got side believe believe it. Not at all. Another bad lie. You seem to have some self-awareness. I'll let you go on this note. No bad lies. I'm, uh, this man doesn't make bad things. So I'm eager to see what he produces with his friends because that's the way, uh, that's the way to produce things. Uh, I, I admire your work for a lot of different reasons, but the thing that you're doing now
Starting point is 00:38:27 where you're holding back a little bit on your rage at the class injustice in this country while trying to make comedy in it and worried that the world burns because a lot of people don't have money and the billionaires are taking all the money. How do you navigate this particular labyrinth of, yeah, golf, money, business, fun, friends with celebrities,
Starting point is 00:38:51 and the world's burning and Hollywood's burning and it's kind of infuriating? Yeah, it is. Oh, look, I mean, my approach to this whole thing was very obvious that I am a golf nut. I always have been. And part of this push is, you know, I didn't grow up country club lifestyle. I had to learn golf on public courses like everybody else did.
Starting point is 00:39:13 And then when I slowly got into the Hollywood world, I was able to play more exclusive courses that I never got a chance to when I was young. So I'm trying to bridge this gap between people that played golf their whole life and kind of were a little bit, you know, more privileged to it and the average golfer. I'm genuinely an average golfer. And so to me, I think I'm trying to bring these worlds together and show this lightheartedness and this other side of those that like golf and bridge this gap between people think it's just for the ultra rich or wealthy, which is not true.
Starting point is 00:39:41 I mean, golf is more popular than ever for anybody. It's not a it's not a overwhelmingly expensive sport to play. You can play for quite cheap. Nowadays, you can get a cheap set of clubs and you can go play a knock around public course. I would say more accessible than it's ever been. And I do think more people got into it because of the pandemic and it created another sense
Starting point is 00:40:01 of community and a way to get away with your friends, have a cocktail outside and goof off for a couple hours. Because as we get older, we lose all of our friendships and it's nice to hold on to something and this is a way I like to do it. So that's my push. That's my two cents. Ball market, check it, clean it, put it back, sink it. But you're seething underneath it all, underneath it all.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Yeah. Well, I'll say I'm upset with the way that the world feels right now. I think everyone is, I think everything feels a little heavy. I said that to a friend last night. Everything feels a little upside down. I'm hoping that we turn this thing around, meaning not we, but the government stops hemorrhaging and people can settle a little bit so we feel like everything isn't going to collapse but Hollywood is collapsing in front of my face.
Starting point is 00:40:50 You know, that's why I'm making my own stuff so much. That's why Bad Friends was created, that's why No Bad Lies was created because I was like I want to make my own stuff. I don't want to wait for the gatekeepers who don't really want us anymore anyway to tell me what I can and can't do. I'd rather make stuff my own way with my team my production my people and that way you know we get to put out to the world something that we enjoy that we love to make people feel good in crappy times you know I mean during when people are kind of unsure of
Starting point is 00:41:18 the future you know. A cool thing sir thank you for your work appreciate you coming on with us one more lie for you on the way out the door Good lie or bad lie Dan listen coming from someone who was the BMOC big man on campus and I was That's so douche BMOC. I mean I was I was big time on my university Lacrosse was the only physical sport we had I was an all-american BMOC listen, I'd pay a lot of money to have it back. Douche, that acronym. What college did you go to again? Clark University.
Starting point is 00:41:47 If I called their athletic department right now and said, can you tell us how to contact one of your more successful graduates, John Weiner? Yeah. They would have, oh yes, we'll- You mean the guy's jersey, the Taeyin Lirampt is up there? BMOC, 92, of course. Just refer to me as BMIMOC from now on.
Starting point is 00:42:06 Unbelievable. Clark University? That's going to be my retort to that. Clark University? I mean, how many students go to Clark? I'm looking it up. 3,000. 3,000, I think, is what it says here.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Unless I'm, 4, 4000 now approximately, Clark Hughes. 4000, that was my high school. Easy to be the big man on campus when into your college at the size of my high school. He was probably the only guy that was loud and annoying enough for everybody to know who he was. That's all that is. That's like me thinking I was funny when I was young.
Starting point is 00:42:42 I was just stupid and annoying. Teachers are like, he's not funny. We're scared that he's slow. We're scared he's not gonna have a future. So everyone laughs at him. They're not laughing with him. They're nervous. They're nervous he's not gonna make it in the real world.
Starting point is 00:42:55 I'm just lucky. Congratulations. It worked out. It seems to have worked out for you, sir. Thank you for stopping by. It did all right. And when does the podcast, like it's available now wherever it is you get your podcast? It's available now.

Starting point is 00:46:13 There it is. All right, we're looking great. That being said, I told you guys, the defense for the Miami Heat would be a key in advancing in the postseason. And what did they do? They held the Chicago Bulls to their lowest score of the season.
Starting point is 00:46:30 And the three point shooting was over 40%. Just as I told you it would be, just as I predicted, just as it will continue to be, as they beat the Hawks and go on to upset the Cleveland Cavaliers. Whoa. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Whoa. Very good segment, dude. Thanks man. And I believe everything that you said. Thank you. Whoa, no you don't. You want to bet on it? You think the Cavs are going to win?
