You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. This is the Dunlabel Tarshall with the StugatSpotCas. So Dan is worried about this. Dan is worried about how today is going to go.. He's gonna be texts when he's not around When I'm filling in and today there's a lot more than just me filling in It's a team of people filling in for Dan today. Yes It seems like Dan reached out to everybody he knew and said I'm worried about how this is gonna go Can you come in and everyone said yes at the same time.

And now Dan's not here yet, which I'm sure at some point he'll pop in. Sure. And then it's like, we actually have no seats. It's, it's more telethon than it's ever been, but it's a star-studded telethon. Is it? Just looking at Greg. Yeah. Takes a village.

So this is what Dan said to me. Quote, make the smartest show, not the most convenient one that protects the most feelings. Wow. Hmm. Thank you for a cryptic message that really doesn't help anyone. What does he mean by that? I just know that it wound up with Dominique

sitting in the shipping container. Ha ha ha. Dominique was offended by that and I said, look, I got four hosts here. Who's the most versatile? Who can I put anywhere? And I say, that's you Dominique. You're like a running back that could play anywhere.

That's a well. I've never been more assaulted in my life. And you should be. You call me a running back? You could be a running back. You could be a running back. You could be. I'll do it.

Well, executive producer. Dominique has been trying to coach up Chris. I've appreciated like in the meeting, which supposedly started at age 15 that, I don't know if it ever actually started. Dominique was trying to get the attention of the room to look at Chris. Well, Chris was trying to get everyone's attention

and no one was paying attention to Chris, so Dominique stepped in. We have a fun environment here. And you know, people are talking and there was just one thing I wanted to get out to everybody and it took me a couple. Hey everyone that's always awkward when there's like a group of like 20 people talking and you're trying to gather the attention of everyone. You never actually you never actually accomplished the getting everyone's attention. So I was like kind of whisper and he like hey look at there. Hey hey hey.

My trick is to like act like it's just like, oh, just, hey guys, can I grab you for it? Like really, I really want everyone to get it. You know when we got everyone's attention? When I said, hey, everybody shut up. And I said, thank you. I'm, excuse me everyone. You need a bullhorn.

No, no, no, no, you need a pair. That's all you need. A pair of bull horns. But there's a lot to get to. I want to play Pretender Contender at some point today. Greg is beefing with Zach Thomas. We have a lot to get to. Parable somethings. Truck nuts.

Trucks. Are you doing this part of show yet? Yeah. I'm not thinking about whether truck nuts is the actual product name or if that's a thing that people just started calling it Are you saying when someone invented came up with that invention was the original name truck nuts because I believe it was Really now look it up, but I mean I believe it was I would think they would go with truck testicles only for the alliteration

You know it's a little bit so you does that count as a iteration So you think truck testicles sound better than truck nuts. Yeah, I do. I mean, I know a little reason like started the same letter, but same sound and I feel like trough and tuh doesn't quite give me the a littleeration feel that I like, trusticles about that. What do you think Dan? So we came and we all parachute in because we're like,

hey, Dan, you need this time to mourn. And I think we're making it worse. I think he's at home right now watching're like, hey, then you need this time to mourn and I think we're making it worse. I think he's at home right now watching this like, ah. Well, he is always sweating. So if he's sweating now watching and it's normal. It was truck nuts with a Z. Oh, now we're getting smarter.

I don't like the Z. Now we're getting smarter. It was a, it was a Z. I don't like doing it, Pablo. I don't like when we use a Z as opposed to an S and we think we're Zany. Like, it's not that exciting. It's not that fun. I don't like David Powell. I don't like when we use a Z as opposed to an S and we think we're Zany. Like, it's not that exciting. It's not that fun. I don't like the Z as an S.

I mean, in any setting. I mean, what about that guy over there? It's two guts. Wait, Chris. So you don't like it even for both of us? No. I don't like it. I think it's lazy. Use the S. I'm pro S. What if the S is not available?

Because sometimes it's not available so people have to improvise to go with a Z, you know? And what instance is the S unavailable? Nuts. N-U-T-S. So you go N-U-T-Z. But how is an S unavailable? TruckNuts.com. I got this.

I got this. There's unavailable. There you go. There you go. There you go. There you go. There you go. There you go. There you go. There you go. there you go. Yep, thank you. They're seemingly major controversy over the history of truck nuts.

This is what I suspect. A number of people claimed to have invented the truck nuts industry, i.e. plastic store bought truck nuts. This is via Wikipedia. David Ham, owner of yournuts.com, spelled with a Z, said he saw a pair of custom truck nuts at a rally in the 1980s and then in 1996,

began manufacturing and selling plastic truck nuts commercially. But John D. Solars owner of bulls balls.com says he was out driving his four by four off road when someone yelled go Ernie show him you got balls Which inspired the idea and he began selling them in 2010 that's a great job. What kind of rally you think it was? I can think of it. Do bicycles, do nuts? Because I feel like there's some potential here. Bike nuts. Where were you hanging from?

You didn't go alliteration with that one. The back of the seat. The back of the seat. Go on, bike balls. Just gonna go straight to bike nuts. Bike balls. Wow. You just had a whole alliteration combo.

Bike balls would be good. Yeah. It was more to know. I'll say that I didn't realize when you're talking about truck nuts that they were actually flesh colored. That's the Wikipedia image here. Who's flesh? Tushae.

I think it varies. What, the shade? There's a rainbow coalition of truck nuts. Why can't there be? I mean, I've seen truck nuts on the streets and I see a particular group of people who have trucks that have nuts. I would even venture to say that if I saw a truck

with the nuts of a certain shade that we're talking about, I would not be thinking, oh, that guy identifies with this shit. I think there's a future with bike balls, man. I'm picturing now, every Sunday morning, there's like, do you guys have this in your neighborhood? Just bikers. They wear the uniforms, they go full. They're annoying, yes.

And there's like dozens of them. What if they all had bike balls? That doesn't seem like the demographic that would buy this product. I can see it. Well, no, because they're also trying to be aerodynamic and this would stop that. Yeah, that's true.

Put on the pole, do bike balls slow you down. That's good executive producing. And mine, the only one who thinks truck nuts are exceptionally vulgar. I feel like I'm being approved. But Greg, I'm looking at this photo, the Wikipedia photo on the page that Jeremy just very expertly read from is of a GMC SUV with a pair of yes,

like light colored, fleshy testicles that are objectively pretty explicit. I mean, you have them, why can't it truck? Well, mine aren't on display. Well, they can be. Well, that's okay. Let me, all right, whatever. But I think it's like, I'm imagining,

I put everything in the context of me, of course. We know. And I'm imagining, I'm in the car with my granddaughter and she says, pop, what's that? And then, you know, it's just like, you just be honest. Those are the best. No, I want to hear him talk this out. What would you tell her?

I like, we hold on. I like the differentiation between what Chris would tell his own daughter and how Greg is explaining it to Chris's daughter. Because like, yeah, just be honest. They're balls. Yeah. I think I would say something like they're a toy that some truck owners like to use as an ornament.

I think you made, I think you made a use. I don't think you need to call them toys, says, sorry. I don't think you need to call them toys, says, sorry. I don't think you need to call them toys, says, sorry. What age can you like stop saying, I don't know, to a kid. Like, because I feel like that should be my approach with like avoiding conversations like that. Explain to like, I don't know.

I don't know what that is. That works. That works. That works. Should I, I should probably stop short of like, ask your mom, right? Like, when I don't know. I don't know what that is. That works. That works. That's pretty good. Should I probably stop short of like ask your mom, right? Like when I don't want to explain something, because then she will become like the villain. So I just like, I don't know. And then my kid will grow up just thinking

I'm an idiot. It doesn't know anything. What are the things that you don't want to talk? Because it's like most of the things that are uncomfortable are because society has made them uncomfortable. Like socialize you to think they're uncomfortable. So when you're with a kid, like with my kids, whenever they ask me stuff, whether they're young, you just tell them,

and then it's not weird. So wait a minute, hold on. No, but I think Bill is wondering the age where you just start telling them the truth about everything. Um, zero? Like when they pop out, you rinse them off, if they ask you a question, tell them the truth. No, that's when you lose.

Once you're honest with them is when you lose them. Like my daughter yesterday was asking me about homeless, being homeless, like why is this person out? Like I was just like, yes. when you lose. Once you're honest with them is when you lose about it. My daughter yesterday was asking me about homeless, being homeless, like, why is this person out? Like, I was just like, yes. Unhoused. Unhoused. Unhoused with a Z. And I was just like, yes, some people struggle

and they don't, like, it's just, I feel like it's good for them, just be honest. Don't like put like weird energy here. Okay, wait, hold on, let's test this. So Chris Coda, your child looks up to you and says, Dad. I said homeless, so apparently I'm a bad parent. Yes.

Daddy, what is, what is death? And you say. We've done that too. It, people die. Yes, it's very sad. They were old. This person was, that dog died. It, we're, we're very sad.

We're gonna celebrate the life. And yeah, I mean, what else do you say? You just be honest and, yeah. What do you like, like, know that they're just, they, they, they, gonna celebrate the life. And yeah, I mean, what else do you say? You just be honest and yeah, what do you like run, like no, they're just, they, they, they want a vacation, they'll be back. What's Billy Gild doing? Parent back from paternity. So my daughter comes up to me and says, what's death?

Maddener? Maddener. Ha ha ha ha. Figured out when you get to it. Ask your mom. You have to say it in that, Billy, Billy's calling for special teams. He wants the punter to come out of the field. Poor wife. I don't know. My daughter,

my oldest one is 12. So like she, we have conversations about religion. So my wife grew up Catholic and we go to church pretty regularly. And I'm not super religious, but she like has questions about it. And the funny thing is, my perception on it has changed many times. And it's just like, I mean, through the history of the world, there's always been religion. So it serves some purpose to all of us, even whether we want to accept it or not. It's a tough conversation to have it with 12-year-old.

It's a lot easier. That's the thing I want to warn you guys. It gets harder. It's a lot easier to have an honest conversation with a four, five, six, seven year old. When they get older and smarter than you, it's impossible. They let's talk to questions. Why?

And I'm like, I don't know, internet. I'm taking all the locks off the internet. Read whatever sites you want. Stop asking me questions. Oh, there it is. You two.com slash Levittar friends. That seems like something that I don't know we can show. Oh no, because we turned it up that way.

It doesn't make it, well, actually it looks worse now. Yeah, that looks like a god-just truck. That's nothing to be proud of. I gotta tell you that. That would make good earrings. Actually, if they were like miniature, you should do it earring. Buy that to someone.

Buy that for someone as earrings please. Please do that. I would do that. If they came in earring shapes, I think that'd be great. If I find before the show is over, a pair of testicles that you can hang on your ears, you will buy that for someone.

I will. You will buy. Absolutely. 100%. We'll buy them for you. Will you wear them? What? I will give them to my wife as a gift.

Where are you really? Yeah, honey, I bought you a pair of earrings. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I've been trying to both a Chris Cody for an entire segment. Don Lebatard. Did you guys see Gilbert Arena's assessment of Zion Williamson? Agent zero. Stugats. Did you answer my question there or no? No. No.

Okay. Very good. This is the Don Lebatard show with a Stugats. Representative on Draft King Sportsbook, one of America's top-rated Spurzburg apps. Draff King's has all kinds of ways to get in on the action including seeing Game Paul A's, props, live betting, and so much more. You just go down when you sign up on a Draff King Spurzburg app to check it out. So I've made this now my mission to find this for Greg, the earrings that he says that he will purchase.

And I found a pair of crock balls that you put on the back of your crocks. So it's truck nuts for your crocks, that you would put on the back of your crocks. Also, when you go to the Etsy page, because I put testicle earrings, it takes you to a page that says testicle jewelry. Nice. But if you go down a couple of rows, then it's like a literal, yeah, it's like jewelry for your testicles. Like you're saying.

Yeah, okay. Yeah. But I'm doing this for work because it's happened on the show, so. Yeah. We can expense all of this. Okay. I don't know what cost I would encourage a searching,

but are you really going to buy these for your wife? As a joke, I would. Sure. As a gag. How do you think that will go for? Not well. Okay. She will never wear them.

They will never be seen again. It will be a very expensive joke, but it'll be worth it. What's your most expensive joke? I guess everyone, this is a question for the class. What's the most expensive joke that you've done? Slash, where's your line of thinking? Like, this is funny and I'm willing to pay this for the joke.

I joined Metal Arc Media full time. Joke is on them. We took one of my teammates cars in Denver. We took all the tires off and put it on blocks in the parking lot. Who? Well, it was Carl Payma, what's his name? Get it made up a more interesting name. That felt like the set up to a Bofa type thing.

Payma. I like how Steve gots referred to metal like media as them, by the way. What do you mean? Jokes on them. Did I do that? Was not attention on him. The conversation I had with my daughter

about religion was interesting because I was kind of like, it's stories, you know? And it feels dismissive, but also it's like, no, people need stories. Like I tell myself stories all the time. And one of my friends that I grew up with is working on his book now. He's trying to become a tenure professor

and he's had a hard time. I've got me tenure professor and he's had a hard time finishing this book that he's been working on for eight years. And he needed some help. So I told him, no one believes in you. Like you're not supposed to be here. Everyone thinks you're gonna fail. No one's rooting for you. Man, knocked out a whole chapter the next day.

You need a story. Sometimes you need a story. That's why we listen to athletes. Everyone says no one believes in us. And I feel like religion chapter the next day. You need a story, sometimes you need a story. That's why we listen to athletes. Everyone says no one believes in us and I feel like religion is the same thing. It exists as a story that we tell ourselves to motivate ourselves, to inspire ourselves. Like you need it.

And that was the definition I landed on for my daughter because I don't wanna say whether it's right or wrong or real or fake. I don't know, but it's something that we've always needed and you may need it sometimes and sometimes I feel like I need it sometimes I don't I I know I'm gonna need it like religion to me if I'm being honest I grew up super Catholic parents super Catholic mom read a church. We went every Sunday

Got married in the church all of that stuff and To me if I'm being honest, it does feel like a bit of cosmic insurance I know there's gonna be a point at which I need to appeal to something that can help me make sense of something terrible. I mean, I thought about this with Dave, with Dan's brother this week, last week, just like in my moment of need,

I'm gonna need something that I tell myself about myself that makes me feel better. I don't, I'm, the... I really appreciate it now. Like, going, I never really was like super religious, but going to church now with my family is not that I believe in all the chance and get all moved by all that stuff, but more than anything is like, it's a forced moment of like reflection,

it's a forced moment of contemplation, and they're like universal principles. Most religions have similar principles that they remind you of and I find that it's nice and the weird thing was like in my early 20s, I was like, let me read the Bible, let me see what this is really about. And then I got to the point where I was like, this is all horseshit and anybody who believes this is dumb and I'm looking around at smarter people, older people, like, what are you doing? Because that's how you feel when you're like in college,

you think you're smarter than everybody. And the older I've gotten, I'm like, I was such an arrogant asshole. Like, this has been around for, since humanity has been around, religion has been around it, obviously, provides some purpose, whether it's real or not,

whether some guy walked on water or whatever, or not does not matter. These principles are important in the stories, whether some guy walked on water or whatever or not, does not matter. These principles are important in the stories, back to the stories, exists to reinforce these thoughts who cares whether they happen or not. I'm not a church goer, I will admit,

but isn't part of the lure just the sense of community, the sense of being among fellow believers. Like, we all get strengthened that, whether we're in a stadium cheering for the same team or in a church anytime we're with like-minded people who believe the same thing. I think there is innate strength in that right? January 6th. I think like maybe he would think something. And sometimes it takes a wrong turn.

Everything has pros and cons. Dominic is basically established that he lets his kids read Q and on message boards that he is now super religious and also is in favor of just insurrecting now and then. Not in favor. I was just making a joke because Greg was explaining all the reasons why church is good and we were just thinking at the same time that those are all the same, like like mighty people believe in the same thing. Well this is the issue, Dominic, the issue. We the same, like like mighty people believe in the same thing.

Well, this is the issue, Dominique, the issue. We're willing to sacrifice for what they believe in. There's, I relate to the person who decided to be too cool for religion. And then the more you realize as you think about what you're going to tell your kids when they ask you like, what happens if there's no brain in my head? What's that thing in the sky? You end up going off on an explanation that does remind you that I actually don't know

and more than that, the limits of human knowledge, of human consciousness, prevent us from ever actually knowing the real truth. And so saying there's a door behind which we cannot understand, which is religion basically, I have come around all the way back. Further than just religion, just in general, you sparked this thought that I had.

And like I like to learn. So I do a lot of reading and do all this stuff because it's important. But the thing that I've realized relatively recently is that the more I learn, the less I know, is like every time I read something, it opens up a new chapter or a new discipline for me to learn more about

and it seems like it's consistent with the knowledge that we all gain is they don't close off disciplines in college. They're not like, hey, guess what? We finish philosophy? Like no, it leads to another discipline and physics grows out of that and something else grows out of that.

It's a weird place to be in because you'll never actually, the world is not a book. We can't get to the end of there. It's a weird place to be in because you'll never actually like, the world is not a book like we can't get to the end of it. Every time you get to a smart, a smaller particle, you then realize that that is made up of even smaller ones. And it's just a, I don't know. You happy, Dan? Dominic did turn me a dinner and say that he was reading books about physics, just genuinely. And so I say that just to say that I said a lot of things in this segment that may sound like I'm also Kyrie Irving.

There are things we don't know, we'll never know that science cannot tell us. I just want to be clear that I also hang out with people who read books about physics. Stugas also turned me as a segment was beginning, a segment ago, and he had a fistful of mega millions tickets. Yes, I did, and yes, I do. It's a big night tonight. You pick numbers, you go random, what do we do here?

I went with a quick pick. Yeah, you got to. Yeah. What numbers did you get? Well, I have a hundred dollars worth of tickets here, so. A hundred dollars worth of tickets? Yeah, it's a big night tonight. Yeah, go pick your go home. Yeah. Don't say the numbers. Just give us the number, like, the tickets here so a hundred dollars yeah yeah it's a big night tonight yeah go

bigger go home yeah don't say the numbers just give us the number like because there's how many segments how many it's a matter what the numbers are just curious eight's a big number for me tonight Billy just read read one set of three dollars all right what if it happens to win I guess you still have the ticket. I still have it, right? Eight, eleven, twenty, twenty one, sixty, and two. Good numbers. Wow, twenty and twenty one, man. That's a bull side right there. Yeah. Distigats know how this works. No. What's the next set of numbers? Got a twenty one, thirty one. Got stopped. He's literally costing you money with this. Cause the people go out and pick these exact numbers.

You now are sharing the prize. I quick picked him. Yeah, quick, quick, quick. That doesn't matter. But if they're the winning numbers, whoever else has those winning numbers, if I'm sharing $1.5 billion with somebody else, I'm fine. But what if it's with 48 people because we have a lot of listeners?

He quick picked them. There's no way 48 people are winning. Exactly right exactly there's no way 48 people would get the same numbers right. Exactly. Instead of a draft King's sponsored betting segment, it should just be Stugots reading his lottery numbers. Do one is segment. Do one is segment.

Okay. That's what everyone's talking about today is the mega millions. Yeah. Everyone. Yeah. So I did my one so far. Just put a check mark or something so we don't do that one again Okay, yeah, always there for me Billy. All right

You really spent a hundred dollars. I did did you yeah wow remember that time that me and you went in I think a hundred dollars ahead on the big power and then I just forgot to buy the yeah I do remember that you cost us what what a hundred million at that point what is faith if not buying a hundred dollars worth of Mega Millions tickets when it gets to a certain point you can I mean it would take it in possible 100 million at that point. What is faith if not buying $100 worth of megameleons tickets? When it gets to a certain point, you can, I mean, it would take a team of people, it wouldn't, it gets to a certain point. The number is above the odds.

So you can guarantee winning if you buy that number of combinations. And I don't think that your chances is one in 1.5 billion. Wasn't there a Brian Krantz to movie about this? I don't know, but the thing is, is that you're risky, like let's say you decide to buy every possible combination of tickets, right? I don't know what the number is

that you can have on this. But if you buy every combination, you could guarantee winning, but you're completely gambling on the fact that someone else will have that number and then you could cost yourself hundreds of millions of dollars. Jerry and Marge go large, 2022. Yeah, I'm sure we could figure out how many permutations there are.

Like, how many, how many, yeah, there we go. There has to be like two digit numbers. How many different numbers are there, like five or something? I've never played a lottery as you can tell. I only play it when it gets to be an exorbitant amount. If it's only like 78 million, hey, I don't bother. What's your number?

What's your threshold? A billion. It's got to be like, it's your self 78 million, I don't bother you. What's your number? What's your threshold? A billion. It's gotta be like, it's your self-respecting, yeah. It's gotta be close to a billion for me. 300 mil, I'll get in there. Okay, so the odds are one in 302.6 million. So if you spend $600 million,

you guarantee that you will have the winning ticket for 1.5 billion, but you're hoping that no one else has it. I don't think that's how that works. That is definitely how it works. I don't know how it works, but it's definitely based on your description. If it's gonna say that's not how it works.

It's one in 302.6 million. There's 302.6 million combinations, correct? So if you buy every combination, you're guaranteed to have the winning ticket. I just love me walking into my gas station with 1.6 and just being like, I'll take all of them. It's gonna be a lot. Give me all the options.

I'm being here for a minute. That might hold those forms. Is that even possible because like, how long does it take to print a ticket? You need a team of people to do it. I would take all the options except like 20 of them. What are the odds? I tried to sell this as a show to our sales people

like a couple months ago when it was high again. I'm like, I have an idea. I'm gonna need you guys to invest 600 million and I'll just keep the difference, but I guarantee you'll get your money back. They didn't like the idea.

A little angel whispered something in my ear. So Christopher, you're going to save $20 then. You're going to, you're going to, you're going to, back.

Okay, good. That's smart. That's a kid I raised right there. You're a kid. That's terrible. He's playing today or? This is Inu, Alun and Proof, Dan Lebatar, show with the stugas. Gamble on by Grafkins.

Dan Lebatard. He said while you were off there while the connection was bad he had mentioned that you have lost a lot of weight and that he admires that. What got into you? Why did you decide? I thought it was all I thought we enjoyed being about the monkey. Yeah. Oh, it's learning again. Okay, the connection is bad again. Unfortunately back to mag this. Okay, back. And this is going about as well. As you go. Thank you, Billy again for laughing in my face. Stugats. Magnina. I'm looking for you. Can you ask me? Yes, we can hear you. Hello. Yes, sir. Action. Hello. Action. Man, I'm really sorry. This is the this is literally the worst

way to ever do this. This is burning my heart that this is happening. But if you could hear me This is burning my heart that this is happening, but if you could hear me, just understand, I'm sorry. This is the Dalai Levertar Show with the Stugats. sports book apps. Draft Kings has all kinds of ways to get in on the action, including same game parlays, props, live betting, and so much more. Use code Dan when you sign up on the Draft Kings Sports Book app to check it out. I feel bad that Dominique is sitting back there. I mean, not that anybody is sitting back there

is beneath us in any way. Hey, hey, hey, hey. I like being back here with the proletariat. You monarchs, you can have what you want. Like the man of the people is who I am. Dominique is organizing, shipping control, shipping container, mission, mail-to container. No, who?

Somewhere, yeah. But speaking of people who are not in rooms where they have been invited, Greg Cody has his actamus, feud that is brewing, and I am concerned. I should be too too because this came up on the Greg Cody show podcast, the new episode, and Christopher brought it up, and I think I look really bad discussing it. I feel, I don't feel bad. What's insanely sensitive by you.

Let me paint the picture for the audience. Please. Zack Thomas, Dolphin Legend, made it into the Hall of Fame after years and years of not making it. Greg Cody, a big supporter of his wrote many a column, saying why he should be in. And once he finally made it, Greg Cody was invited to Canton with his wife, plus one, like Stugots was

for Bacelli, a great memorable weekend. You get to be part of the private after party, a really cool invitation. I'm pretty sure a lot of media members are not getting invited to this. And in weeks leading up, my dad's like, maybe even you and Christy come, like, this is exciting, let's make a whole thing of it.

And then as we got closer, I was like, I'm not gonna go, but dad, are you going? Like, is this happening? No, I'm not going, I'm not going. Well, a couple of things changed my mind. And one of them, frankly, was that I was sort of hurt when I wanted Zach to be on my podcast leading up to the Hall of Fame induction and... To fair ask. And I mentioned it. And I mentioned it to him weeks and weeks in advance. It's not like I'm asking him,

you know, the day before he's leaving for Canton. And he uh, turned me down and I was a little bit hurt by that. Post his reasoning. His reasoning was that, oh, man, I'm laying low. I'm, I'm swamped. I'm, I'm getting hit for so many requests, which is probably true. If I say yes to you, I gotta say yes to him and her and him. And yeah, but only one is invited to be part of Zack Thomas's authorized at the Hall of Fame.

And that's you. You had every right to ask for that. I think so. Yeah. Right. And you can be disappointed. Yeah, but only one is invited to be part of Zack Thomas' entourage at the Hall of Fame, and that's you. You had every right to ask for that. I think so. Right, and you can be disappointed. I don't think anyone is begrudging you for being disappointed. It was sort of hurt. I was sort of hurt.

So you said note, Zack Thomas, this exclusive invitation, a unique invitation. Where he could have gotten content. At the party. Where he could have gotten content because you wanted to stick it to him. You wanted him to recognize that Greg is not here because i said no i didn't want to stick to them at all and and uh...

after he uh... told me that that he couldn't or wouldn't do it uh... i texted back and saying uh... and and said i'm disappointed i understand uh... but did you understand i i understand all the story here dad your sensitive i understood but i was still hurt it's a little sensitive but that it's text is that a conversation how do you express dissatisfaction when you're

trying to tell somebody who's offered you something nice that it's not nice enough uh... i didn't say that i just said you know and and this is the other part of the story that needs to be told in concert with my decision Two other things were at play number one The Miami-Herald has next to no budget for travel and had I gone to Canton It might have affected whether we could send a second person to Germany for the dolphin game

Here you're you're reaching now. Okay. How about you get my boss on the phone Like like now you're like I save the money But Greg is saying there's a budget and that would have prevented someone from going on a more important trip and Greg Would have ended up having to pay for it on his own dog and when you say when you say they saying I didn't go to Tahoe So that everybody else could go. Okay, when you say they wanted me and they were fine with me not going to can Because it saved money. And the other thing is, Kenton's got very strict rules.

Nobody can speak to these inductees after they speak that day. So in other words, theoretically, I'm going to Kenton to write about Zach Thomas and getting inside stuff because I'm there. No, because I can't talk to them afterward. And so that was another reason why, why am I going? You could have talked to them privately at the party. Afterwards.

That's at night, that's not for what I'm writing. How responsible, let's say the 100% of him going to the Hall of Fame, what percentage do you think your advocacy accounted for? I'm sure none or next to none. That's not you said. Good answer though. You know how to play the game baby, I like it.

Look, jokingly, I'm like, I'm the reason he got in. I know better. But the things I wrote and the support i gave him over the years there was a reason why i got a private imitation to his uh... after part of the uh... give us the headline say the thing

ripple no i'm not gonna as far as i know we're still on good terms this sounds like a classic destination wedding situation right where it's like hey why don't you travel this long distance at your expense to come celebrate me? Oh, you can. It's too expensive. I guess I understand. I want you to be there, but if you can't make it, I get it. I know, but the rule there, Billy,

is never invite anybody that you hope doesn't show up because they might show up. And in fairness, I had RSVP'd, yes, I was going to go. Right. And you said no. And you had your terms. Yeah. And quite frankly, my wife bought a hotel reservation and airfare. And we got a refund on one, but not the other. Just a sad, gross me money not to go. Just a sad one way beef. Zach Thomas isn't even aware of this. Like, you know, I mean, like you made this stand. We're going to make him aware of it. I mean, maybe now he will be. But it's like,

you made this stance. Well, no. Do you think on Saturday night at one point, Zack Thomas was like, man, where's Greg at? No. No, but your dad did send them a text saying that he was disappointed. So he knows he's aware. I'm, I hold no grudge. I'm thrilled that Zack got in. He deserved it. I could give you 100 reasons why he deserved it. And they made him wait 10 years, 10 years. Greg, how did Zach Thomas Hall of Famer respond when you expressed any of this to him? Our last exchange was me saying, I'm disappointed, but I understand. You know, it doesn't change the way I feel. You deserve this. Have a great weekend. I think disappointed, but I understand, you know, it doesn't change the way I feel.

You deserve this, have a great weekend. I think it was what I texted him. And that was, you know, a week or so ago. No response. I think we have some... So that was the last text. We have some b-roll of this after party, and it looks like a real banger.

Like, it looks like you missed... YouTube.com slash 11th Art and Friends. Oh, man. Yes. This is, how would you describe this? It feels like a scene from dot com. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Oh, man. Yes. This is how you describe this. It feels like a scene from Dunder Mifflin. It's like a real like that is Bob Crafth wrecking a chair across the floor.

Yeah, LT. Oh, wow, LT. LT to Bork. LT couldn't look more bored. Oh my God. Greg Cody would be one of the youngest people here. They need a better venue. They really do.

They just like, oh my God. Like a hotel conference room. I think that's exactly what it looks like. Not the back adjacent Taylor's head. All right, maybe he didn't miss much. It's not an old one. I imagine it would be. To kind of see how many pencils into and they would stick. Stegots was Bisselli's, that's sad. Bisselli's was great. I mean, I had a blast. I got to be honest with you. I did.

I got into rooms. I never thought I'd be in. I was in a room with all the hall of famers right before they were in the room. I was like, I'm not going to be in the room. I was like, I'm not going to be in the room. I was like, I'm not going to be in the room. I was like, I'm not going to be in the room. I was had a blast. I got to be honest with you. I did. I got into rooms. I never thought I'd be in. I was in a room with all the hall of famers right before they went out for the ceremony. I was at the after party at check con's house. It was tremendous. Like you missed out on a great opportunity. He really sounds like he knows how to Bissellis. Brate. Well, Bissellis, he's pressed something that makes fun of him. I just got back

Celebrate Yes, really you're an asshole the celebrate in asshole Wow, what is Shadcon's house like big nice Far away from my hotel, you know would have preferred it, you right down the block. Shad Khan is a house in Canton, Ohio. Shad Khan, I believe, with his son Tony rented out a big mansion somewhere just outside of Canton for the party that night. I imagine he had him built for that. I like the idea of him just buying a house in advance of him arriving at any location. Like, oh, that's our, you know, Vermont house. In all 50 say, he's got a house.

It was very nice. I mean, the Bacellis took great care of me. I have no idea what the Thomas's plans were for you. Yeah. I've been in the corner of that sad room. When I will tell you that Tony came on Billy knows this. He came on before he went into the Hall of Fame. He came on after he went during and during. Yes. Yeah. Oh, the Bob crafts slowly dragging fame and during. Yes. Yeah. He did. Oh, the Bob crafts slowly dragging a chair across the floor.

Is that great? Yeah. He's got to have a chair dragon. This feels like an alternate universe where none of these guys are rich. So just to tell everyone the backstory here, that's the room I was in right before the Hall of Fame induction ceremony. I got into a bus with Tony Bicelli. I walked out and I just got following Bicelli.

I knew I had no business being in that room. There was no reason for me to be in that room, but Bisselli said, get behind me. He threw blocks, he got me into the room, and all of a sudden, I'm sitting in a room that I don't deserve to be sitting in. Edwin James is there, Michael Irving is there, Bob Kraft is there, all the Hall of Famers are there,

and I just started rolling. So maybe this isn't the private party afterwards. It seems to be like the holding area after the ceremony. But still, I like the idea of this being... No, right before the ceremony. Okay, so before, I like the idea of this being Zack's sad party. I appreciate the back-to-back segments where we kind of like boxed them out of the previous segment and now Stu and Cody have like effectively boxed us out of this conversation.

I like it. I think we should do this. These two. We are doing two completely different shows at this point. You know what? Let's do a competition. Stu gots in Greg versus Dominique and Pablo. Who can put on the better show? Done. Racism.

I mean, I have Greg. Young and smart. Young and smart versus old. I have Greg young and smart young and smart versus old Der Wow and and veteran Yeah, grizzled vets all right grizzled vets. I found it. Thanks for the complaruses nuts. Mm-hmm I don't like the hand we're playing here Dominique. I'm a little afraid losing hand. That's why Going up in family for you to again Sgrag and Stu Gatz. Don't be intimidated.

I got you, baby. Relax. Who am I playing contender with? I think that's obvious. Wait a second. Are you guys going to stay with both shows? Yeah. How do you want to do this?

No, family feud style. We're dividing ourselves by race. This is how that show goes. Next hour podcast, Big Sui will be Greg and Stugat's hosting with the shipping container. Our one will be Pablo and Dominique hosting with the shipping container. And then we'll reconvene for our two and decide who won.

I love to reconvene. Yes. I said did I say wrong? Are the odds out yet? Draft King odds. Who's favorite? Any idea? I think we're a six to five favorite.

You're definitely the favorite. Surprise that you know how that gambling odds work. Wait, so who's deciding who wins? How does that work? Me. Everyone loses. Huh. Now we'll vote.

Wow. Well, there's four people. So Dominique and Pablo came to just not do the show for an hour. They're just going to sit outside and watch Greg and see how watch Greg and I'm glad I left my family for this. They can go first, I mean. We have one more segment before we do this game. So we should play. Take a do the whole show if they like, I mean, contender, pretender.

Next segment, sure. With all of us. Yeah, why not? Well, we can be an after the break. Don Lebertard. We like to call this one a chorus of Owen Wilson. But we can be an after the break. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Who gots?

YouTube.com's last Levitard and friends. It's a room in which Bob Kraft is being asked to do something. I am pretty sure he never does in any other room at any other part of his entire life. And all of these faces, all of these people,

the thing about the NFL, the pro football hall of fame, excuse me, Dominique, is that you put me in that room, I am not going to recognize 95% of those people I got Bob Kraft I got I think Lawrence Taylor looking at his phone. Yeah, it's a nightmare in terms of trying to make small talk for me. Mm-hmm. It's where I thrive. You would notice Michael Irvin you would notice more people than you think but there are several older people that are there Hall of Famers. I had no idea who they were.

So at one point, I'm in that room, and it's a room I had no business being in. I just followed Bacelli. I'm not supposed to be in that room. Only Hall of Famers are supposed to be in that room and family and friends, okay? But I'm in that room. I turned, there's a man having a cocktail.

I had no idea who he was. so I looked at him and I said, hey, and he looked back and said, hey, and I said, introduce yourself. Jesus. He said, Ted Hendrix, and I go, the store. Ha, ha, ha, ha. Wait, you went with, that's how you did it.

You went with introduce yourself. Yes, that's how you do it. I mean, when you know another guy's name, yeah, that's what he did. The you do it. You went with introduce yourself. Yes. That's how you do it. I mean, when you know another guy's name, that's what he did. The guy did it. That's what he did. He yelled out the stalk. I yelled out the stalk, yep.

Should have done that with Jake Owen. He's a big boy. He started the same way. Hey, hey, hey. Hold on a second. You were in a room and they're getting it up. You were in a room and the whole thing, you were not supposed to be in.

In this club that these people worked their entire careers to get into Yeah, and you told them to identify themselves to you when you were not even supposed to be in said room Yes, you're asking for like IDs of the people for the people I didn't recognize if they should be in the room You should know I wasn't sure who it was. I mean, I didn't know it was an awkward moment I'm there by myself. I'm floating around the room. I didn't know what else to do. It's a testament to how valuable like confidence is. You just deliver anything with confidence.

It's just, it's, what I wouldn't give for just a day of straight white male confidence. It just, it must be great. Not even Drake. Remember when Drake tried to get into it? I think it was Miami Heat locker room He said he was told this is media only he goes sort of meekly. I am media But not even Drake could summon stucatsu's level of I'm now the bouncer in Canton, Ohio energy

I love that there is still a place on earth where the media out ranks Drake That's just hard to believe like you would think that that he would be there would be some special category for Apex celebrity that would allow him anywhere the lowly media can go. That's incredible Surprised surprised to hear what your favorite Drake song. I mean Greg. I have none Not one I don't know Star and all of us can you can you do you know any of like the songs? Can you like harm any of them? Do do you know any of like the songs? Can you like, harm any of them?

Do you remember any parts of any Drake songs? Um, I mean, Hotline Bling. How does that one go? Do you like a top five? Start from the bottom and then get to like, Greg Cody's top five Drake songs. No, I'm not gonna take a quiz. No, no, no, this is just you.

That's the thing. What he doesn't know, the answer. That's correct. I'm not gonna take a quiz, that's his move. No, I don't, look, I don't, I know Drake's celebrity. I know who he is. I know how big he is. I'm not a particular fan.

I don't know what music, I'm sorry. Can I just hear Greg Cody karaokeing what he thinks hotline bling sounds like? You're a crooner, Greg. I know. I think God's plan is probably a better song for me to sing. There you go. But I gotta warm up my one. I'm gonna do it.

You're top five. You got three to go. I gotta warm up my vocal cords. All right. We're setting them up for real success because at some point, great coding in Stugatz are gonna be in there doing terrible like crooner versions of Drake songs is gonna be a hilarious incredible segment and then you and I are gonna come and nerd it out afterwards to get boot off the stage. Yep I'll be singing Jimmy Cooks. Way too sexy. That's one of his right.

Classic. I wasn't sure about that one. We got it steal it from Pablo, we got it steal it from you used to call me on my cell phone. Frank Sinatra back here. Now they can't do it, we box them up. Is that how I play? Blanger, yeah. A God's plan, I say it's God's plan. Nah, and that sort of thing.

That kind of thing. Yeah. That kind of thing. Yeah. It's going to be a boy. Is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo? Oh, there it is. Won't you carry me home?

That's not true. Do you have a back of my day today or? No, I don't, Billy. Oh, it's a quality control. It's a week off. Dance time. Yeah, dance time. Yeah, dance time. G-C-W. So, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. GCW. Mm-hmm.

So, Jack, maybe next week, I'm gonna, I'm gonna try for one next week. Wouldn't it be QCW? No, it would be. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll catch by you. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. It would be QCW.

Then you pay attention. You couldn't let that one slide. No. Okay. Jeez. It's aggressive though. Well, it almost is aggressive as you saying, what's your name or how identify yourself?

Yeah, I've introduced ourselves. What's your guys' move? The store. What's your guys' move in a room? And there's somebody that you absolutely should know the name of and you don't. I leave. Yeah.

It's good to be with other people there so you can be like, who is that? Right. Who's that person? My wife usually tells me. I'm being told that we have sound on video of this stork interaction with Stugots. Hit it.

I'm gonna get you chicken juice. Okay. Introduce yourself. Get Hendrix. Oh my God, 1013. Oh my God, this is amazing. Oh my God. I'm having to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that.

I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that.

I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that.

I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. I'm going to have that. there's so much in that. Still got you just a fountain of great thing, because the voice, I don't know what that voice should be used to say, but it's something, it's a special voice. The Stork seemed delighted though. He didn't seem bothered. Oh, he loved me. Yeah, he did.

There was no one hanging out with a poor Stork. I mean, so. Yeah, how did you settle upon a guy that you didn't know the name of and had a camera pointed him? Like what was your plan then? I was just scrolling around the room. Well, first off, I went to a place where there wasn't too much traffic in that room

and no one was standing by Ted Hendrix. And so there was a lot of space there. And I needed space. And then I just started scrolling around the room and Ted was right next to me and I could tell he was kind of looking through my phone from behind like trying to see what it is I was doing and Ted Hendrix was trying to spy out.

Yeah, he was too drunk to do your privacy. It was a juice. I don't think that's what he was doing. Drinking juice huh? It just I felt his presence and I needed to introduce myself and I just I turned to him with a camera on and I needed to introduce myself and I just, I turned to him with a camera on and I said introduce yourself. That's crazy.

If someone said introduce yourself to me, I would be taking, I'm like, what are you, a cop? Like, I would say who are you? You have the Greg Cody show with Greg Cody. You'd be like, I'm Greg Cody. That kind of thing. I would, I would say who are you? It would be weird being asked identify yourself. you would have known who Ted Hendrix was though

Oh, yes, right six seven. Yes, and one of the most distinctive looking people in the room. Yeah, I definitely would have known him Baby He's Guatemalan. He is really yes boarded Guatemala in Guatemala. Wow. Ted Hendrix went to school and hired the store. Yeah, let alone fact. Uh-huh. I played corner back in the NFL. Yeah. I am not confident enough just to walk up to a six nine stranger and like, hey, juice, huh? Introduce yourself Ted Hendrick speaks fluent Spanish. Oh wow, my favorite part of St. God's interaction with the Stork is that none of the things

He said to him were questions right demands right? Demands. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement.

Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement.

Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Statement. Sorry. When you ask what I would do in a room of people that I didn't know, can I draft someone to be

in the room with me? Because I would draft Jujugadi first pick. And you lose the best of all time. Jujugunos. Like he explained what it's like to be in a room with Jujugu that you are terrified of, but he feels comfortable in. It's not just that he has the confidence

and he feels comfortable in that room and he'll go up and say hi to anyone. He has an incredible gift of seeing someone's face and knowing who they are immediately. Like from across a room, he can be like, that's XYZ person, that's like the third receiver on XYZ team, that person used to play this, that the other, he knows who absolutely everybody is

based on their face immediately. When we were at radio row, he would be like, there's like a crowd over there and we're like, who is that? He's like, oh, that's this person. And we're like, damn, like, how do you know that so quick? Facial recognition? An incredible talent. That's my favorite game to play. Like, I radio rows the best place for it. Like, oh, look, there's the skinny counselor from heavyweights. Like, I find them was random people. In my mind, whenever I'm meeting somebody, I assume that they also have a clock in their head

that is ticking and keeping track of how many seconds are going by before their name is set. I'm just waiting to be found out. And I am willing to wait for as long as possible. I'll get in the land war with somebody just to prove that I care about them so much that I possibly, I mean, of course I have to know their name. I'm sitting there talking to them for so long

in reality I got nothing. When you introduce like your wife to someone, do you introduce the person that you're introducing to her by name? Because sometimes I won't, I'll just be like, hey, this is my wife, I'll say my wife's name, and then I feel self-conscious as if that person thinks that I don't know their name.

When I do know their name, but it's like, am I just gonna say everybody's name back and forth and then say I'm Billy and it's like a whole thing? Do you ever do the thing when you don't know the other person's name, but it's like, am I just gonna say everybody's name back and forth and then say I'm Billy and it's like a whole thing. Do you ever do the thing when you don't know the other person's name but you want them to think of do so you kind of tail out? You're like, this is my wife, Kristi and this is a little madly. It's kind of like fade away from a lot of gesturing forward. And this is your turn now, calling response.

Because people, if you just leave it open, people say the name. They will say their name. The uncomfortable one is when you introduce yourself and they say, oh, they will say their name. The uncomfortable one is when you introduce yourself and they say, oh, I know who you are. Like no, I was doing this so you could tell me what your name is. Right. I'm terrible in a social setting.

We know. I'm just the worst. I warn my, when my wife and I are together in a social setting, I warn her, don't expect me to introduce you to anybody, not because I'm being rude, but because chances are I don't know the person we're talking to. Just on the front end, you're managing expectations. Exactly, right.

It's a good job out of you. Thank you. I mean, if you are the wing person, it's your responsibility to introduce yourself. If you know like, if your wife was with you, she should be going up to people saying, hi, and introducing herself so that you don't then get caught in a situation. So we're thing to say right before a party though, I'm not introducing you to anyone. I, many times, I warn her about that because I don't want her to think.
