The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz - Local Hour: The Kerri Strug of Love

Episode Date: February 14, 2025

Happy Valentine's Day, Le Batard Show fans. We have a show full of love ahead despite Stugotz leaving Dan in the position to have to work on Valentine's Day even though Stugotz was the one originally ...on the schedule. Speaking of Stugotz, Chad Ochocinco was in Stugotz-like form on The Night Cap with Shannon Sharpe as he tried to explain why he was late to one of their latest episodes. Then, Tony wants to say something on worms really quick, Billy helps Dan create a code word for when he wants to fill his schedule with fake nonsense, and it looks like Jimmy Butler may have pooped himself. Plus, Billy has moved from Fear Coach to Love Coach, and Tyreek Hill told Bill Simmons to watch out for the Chargers. Today's cast: Dan, Billy, Jeremy, Jessica, and Tony.

Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. You hear that? Ugh, paid. And done. That's the sound of bills being paid on time. But with the BMO Eclipse Rise Visa Card, paying your bills could sound like this. Yes! Earn rewards for paying your bill in full
Starting point is 00:00:28 and on time each month. Rise to rewards with the BMO Clips Rise Visa Card. Terms and conditions apply. This is the Levantar Show with the Stugats. Strange. Strange open. I thought it was great. It was also great. I didn't say, I know that strange is viewed as pejorative.
Starting point is 00:01:03 There are many, many things in the world that I think are strange that I love. Like me? Like Billy. Oh. Wait, what? So. I think I'm normal. I know that people think I'm strange.
Starting point is 00:01:16 In my world, I'm the most normal thing. Do you think that strange people know they're strange? Do you think strange people? No, because everyone else is strange to me. Witty knows he's strange. Witty's a good example from our world. I believe we have a lot of strange people in our world. I believe I am one of them, but I know I'm strange.
Starting point is 00:01:34 I don't know how many people know they're strange. I don't think that I would classify myself as strange. I think I would classify myself as a nonconformist who's not much interested in society's views of him. Yeah, you're an anarchist. No, not an anarchist. I just, you know, like I'm fine. Like if I'm strange, okay, I'm strange, whatever.
Starting point is 00:01:53 I like, you know, what I like, and that's fine. I happen to gravitate toward weird people. I think that weird is interesting, and I would love for everybody in our audience to have permission to be weird without being judged by the alleged normal. But let's put it on the pole. Do strange people know they're strange? Let me ask the group though, how do you feel about Valentine's Day? Because I would say I have a new
Starting point is 00:02:15 relationship with love in the last four or five years and it's it's as much to do with my wife as it is to do with the death of my brother. And so today is a day like every day is for me when you start realizing or come to grips with the idea that life is short. Any day is a good day to celebrate the people that you love. But people actively don't like this holiday because there's a commercialization of it that cheapens love. I don't I'm this is dangerous ground but like did you and Lebo get each other Valentine's gifts? I don't understand why this is like a particularly- That I appreciate love more.
Starting point is 00:02:56 I appreciate love more than I did before. That's it's as simple as that. And it feels like your wife expects you to do stuff on Valentine's Day in a way that maybe you didn't do stuff on Valentine's Day in a way that maybe you didn't do stuff on Valentine's Day prior? Well, she expects me to pay attention about being present is what she expects me to do. And there are many things that this job does that don't allow that.
Starting point is 00:03:15 What are you laughing about, Billy? Well, because you're here. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, it's pretty funny. Well, and so now you know why it is that I come in stomping in. I've got, now you know why on Valentine's Day I come in stomping in,
Starting point is 00:03:26 because Stugats was supposed to work today, and I was not. We'll get back to love in a second. I want Tony and Jeremy and Jessica's opinion on Valentine's Day. Well, less so yours. There are a lot of plates you're spinning in the executive producer chair,
Starting point is 00:03:43 so you don't have to concentrate on love today You just have to concentrate on not making me hate you. You sound like my wife honestly, like this is the most at home I've ever felt since the way you're talking to me. I got don't worry about me worry about yourself Before we get to the back rows opinion about Valentine's Day though because of Stugatsa's general unreliability, we've had a number of meetings with him about being more Courteous with his schedule and literally present and and literally present. That's right We're asking him to be in a conscious state of literally present. Thank you Yes, we are asking him to reach enlightenment by being just simply present
Starting point is 00:04:20 But as you can see over there chairs not even in the right place He's not here and I wasn't supposed to be here today but I want to play for you guys some sound at the beginning of Shannon Sharp and Ocho Cinco talking on nightcap they've got a very popular show they've got a growing show it's easy to see why it is it's popular and growing and O to sinko plays the perfect role to shannon sharp as to god sees playing a much uh... more cartoonish and athlete soaked
Starting point is 00:04:53 and famous still got so listen to how the show after the super bowl you have to understand okay shannon sharp is explained everyone who works for i can't even imagine what the environment like if i call you two in the morning you pick up the phone phone because not everybody wants to work for me, not everyone can. I need things at two in the morning, that's how it works. He's very professional, very responsible, crazy about that sort of stuff and Ocho Cinco is not in any way. Tight ship, loose ship situation there Dan, you think Unc drives a tough ship? Well, Shana Sharpe has said so and he gets very
Starting point is 00:05:22 frustrated with Ocho in ways that are real and so while they do the professional wrestling stuff well in order to sink was always done it well i do believe after twenty years of marriage to somebody who frustrates me in a number of different ways why also value in a number of different ways because the tension between us is something that makes it a rare thing that can exist for twenty years, these details are things that are dangerous to these kinds of marriages. I will tell you that Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon have survived all, and that's why I know the love. This right here is why I know their
Starting point is 00:05:59 love is real, because for more than 20 yearsony kornheiser is waiting for forty five minutes for will bond to finish his sandwich and he complains about it every day and he complains about it every day for twenty five years and it never changes here is shannon sharp and ocho cinco as ocho cinco this is listen as if it's to gots and listen to ochoco explaining why after the Super Bowl his partner, Shannon Sharp, he can't be there on time for him and Shannon Sharp
Starting point is 00:06:30 has to wait after the Super Bowl for 40 minutes for Ocho Cinco. Ocho, tell the people why you were late today. Tonight. Listen, so check me out, right? Check me out. People, people, listen to me real quick now. This wasn't my fault. This wasn't my fault.
Starting point is 00:06:46 Like see. Who thought it wasn't you late? It's Ocho. Was Ocho late or was it the fault late? All right, you know, it was Ocho. It was Ocho that was late, right? So I went on a blind date tonight, right? I went to a restaurant very early on.
Starting point is 00:07:02 The reservation was for eight o'clock. The reservation was for eight o'clock, you hear me? I went to a restaurant in Wynwood called Sparrow. It was called Sparrow, very, very nice place. And they had live music and I had no idea what the individual who I was going to dinner with, I had no idea what she looked like. So it was a blind date.
Starting point is 00:07:19 So you never know. So boom, I walk in, boom, she's already sitting down. I sit down. I order my food and get me a latte. They got live music playing. We having a good time. We exchanging pleasantries. So boom, the game start.
Starting point is 00:07:32 So I told her, listen, miss, I got nightcap tonight. So I need to be able to watch the game, you know, the thunder and the goddamn wolves. I need to watch the game, but I can still talk to you as I'm watching the game. So I get up, I say, listen, I ate, we ordered our food. I ate my food. I go outside to go to my car.
Starting point is 00:07:54 It's 10 o'clock. I only need 20 minutes to get home. So I'm gonna be home time. I go outside, they done told me to truck. So were you parked in a no parking zone? Yeah, I was. Okay. I, they would listen, listen, hold on, wait, wait a minute.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Let me tell you why now. At Sparrow, they have valet in the front. I pulled up the valet and asked valet how much was it for valet parking? He said $100. So I take, I catch an Uber to the tow place. I catch Uber to the tow place. I catch an Uber to the tow place. I told him like, sir, I'm in a rush.
Starting point is 00:08:27 It's about 10.35 now. It's 10.35. Sir, I'm in a rush. At night, Captain A, I got to do a show. Can I please pay real quick? Here's my license. So he run my license and said, listen, Ocho, we know who you are,
Starting point is 00:08:40 but your truck is already in the system and we can't give you your truck because you owe money for parking tickets, the tolls. You know the toll system and we can't give you your truck because you owe money for parking tickets the tolls. Yeah, so I got a sun pass. I just been running through it and I didn't even realize I didn't rent out the money on my sun pass. Okay. So I say, listen, sir, if I can't get my car, can I please get the keys to my house inside the car and I'm a Uber bad, I'm a Uber home. And so I Ubered home and boom, I got here at 11.15. Yeah, it's a good show.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I don't know if it's gonna last. Why? Because I don't think that Shannon Sharp will abide that behavior for as long as I have. Well none of that was his fault. Yeah. You walked us through what happened. What is he supposed to do?
Starting point is 00:09:23 100 bucks for valets, una also by the way. That's Miami That's if you go to a popular restaurant in Miami that a lot of people are at that's what it's gonna cost you to put Your car out front. I've never heard that a tow truck company who we all know are super on the up-and-up Decide to abide by you. Oh son pass bills and we're not gonna give it back to you Like I I think respectfully to all tow truck drivers and tow truck companies out there, and trust me I don't wanna get on your wrong side because I don't want my car to go missing.
Starting point is 00:09:50 But I would think that they don't exactly have the closest relationship with the law since they're stealing your car. That's where the story falls apart to me. Because otherwise we're good to go. 8 p.m. reservation, he's there for a couple hours. The latte doesn't make a lot of good to go. APM reservation, he's there for a couple hours. Oh no, but Jeremy, if- The latte doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
Starting point is 00:10:06 No, hold on Jeremy, you say it holds up. Just for the record, Ocho Cinco is late to give his analysis of a game that he was on a blind date on when it was happening. That's right. Like just so you understand, you can have all of the expertise of the internet on analysis for the game. That's one person who wasn't paying attention to the game because he was on a blind date. The timelines didn't line up because he said that the reservations were at 8 and that he had to eat dinner quick to go watch the game when kickoff was at 630 so there's kind of like I don't exactly know what timeline was here
Starting point is 00:10:40 he said he was in Miami so it wasn't a situation at time zones which can be very tricky we've got over that a number of times, but that wasn't at play there. See, I thought the same thing, but then he started talking about a Thunder game against either the Bulls or the Wolves, I didn't know, and so it made me think that this was not in reference to Super Bowl night, because that was where it started confusing. Why would you have your reservation at 8 p.m.
Starting point is 00:11:01 for a 6.30 game, But you get out in about two hours and you feel like you're making good time, but the Sun Pass part of it, that's where it really, really falls apart. What I loved is that I was looking at it, like you said, as Stu Gotts, everything was filtering what Ocho was saying through a Stu Gotts prism, and I was like,
Starting point is 00:11:18 ooh, that's a good one, he got the valet, had to park somewhere that was a little sketchy, but then he got towed, but then oh my god, he forgot about the Sun Pass, and they can't give him the thing the thing so it's like lie on top of lie on top of lie from Stu guys I also may have some bad information here in assuming this was after the Super Bowl Jeremy because It may be another Game or day it is the second or third time this has happened between them and Shannon Sharp keeps getting mad
Starting point is 00:11:45 I thought it had happened again after the Super Bowl so I might have that part Wrong going back to what it is that we were talking about before and Valentine's Day the group of you feel how about this? Jeremy Tony Jessica. Do you have any are there any requirements in your relationship on Valentine's Day? For me, I don't have restrict requirements, right? Like my wife is like, you know, I like Valentine's Day But it's not like the end of the world. So I was explaining him yesterday We were doing a walk with my with my daughter and I explained to my wife I was like, hey Chris and Mike she's like, oh why weren't down the show? It's like oh Chris and Mike somehow convinced their wives to go on a boys trip for Valentine's Day.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Out of the country. Out of the country, like not anywhere close. And she's like, oh, that's interesting. OK. Sounds like a great present to their wives. Touche. I was like, you think that I would be able to do something? And she's like, no, no, no, absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:12:40 And I was like, oh, OK, so you value Valentine's Day? She's like, not really. You're just not leaving me with the kid on Valentine's Day. And I was like, oh, that's it. But if you were Chris She's like, not really, you're just not leaving me with the kid on Valentine's day. And I was like, oh, that's it. But if you were Chris Cody's wife, wouldn't you be like, yeah, get out of town? Oh no, yeah, again, different circumstances. If you're Kyle, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Yeah, Kyle's like, go ahead, Kyle. Please go. They're both Kyle. Yeah, we don't have requirements in my, in fact, I forgot today was Valentine's day until I woke up and Lehman handed me a gift card to get a massage and a book about Cold War spies. And I'm like, I love Valentine's Day.
Starting point is 00:13:06 Hell yeah, that's a sweet man. Okay, so what do you do now? Because like, Dan, this is one of the benefits of working on Valentine's Day that you didn't consider is you get to rush out of the house, right? And you're like, oh, Valerie, I have to go to work. Don't worry, we've got something big planned later. And then you have like a shorter day
Starting point is 00:13:23 and now is when you spend the time planning what that big thing is later. Yeah, now that you're out at work, now is when you can do all of the Valentine's errands. And then when you get home is when you go and you do like the big gesture. And by the way, also, if you do like what you think is a big gesture
Starting point is 00:13:39 and it gets a bad reception early on, then you have all of work to figure out how to make up for the fact that you had a bad gesture early on, then you have all of work to figure out how to make up for the fact that you had a bad gesture in the morning. No, it's funny you mentioned the work part because my plan was to get Lehman's present on the way home from work, but then he surprised me with mine at like 7 a.m.
Starting point is 00:13:56 And I was like, oh, come on. Like, why are we doing this so early? I'm not ready yet. And now I have to be like, by the way, here's your present. Yes, I did get it this morning. Here's some lure. Exactly, you never mentioned it. I'm not ready yet. And now I have to be like, by the way, here's your present. Yes, I did get it this morning. Here's some lure. Exactly, you never mentioned it.
Starting point is 00:14:08 I'm getting him fresh bait. So I mean, I couldn't have got it ahead of me. You tell him, I couldn't. These worms are gonna die. I've been planning it for months. I just couldn't get it before. By the way, worms, can I say something on worms really quick?
Starting point is 00:14:18 Sure. Of course. What better day? Do you see worms anymore, Dan? Do I see worms? Yeah, I haven't seen a worm in a very long time. I haven't seen a worm since like the early 2000s, if you want me to be honest. What do you think that's about? I don't know, but when was the last time you saw a worm? I see worms fairly regularly.
Starting point is 00:14:34 I walk my dog. I walk my dog in grass all the time. And you see worms? And I work with one. I don't see him always on Fridays. I see, I feel like I see worms. Really? Yeah. I haven't seen a live worm Fridays. Touche. I feel like I see worms. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:46 I haven't seen a live worm. Do you garden? No. Well, that's the reason. But neither do you. No, I don't garden, but I'm walking a dog around grass and stuff and grass. By the way, the things I find in the grass, look where I live. I live on South Beach, right?
Starting point is 00:14:59 And my dog is a scavenger. So I have to be paying attention all the time because, hey, there's a baguette in his mouth all of a sudden or there's a chicken wing because somebody is just and I'm like wait how does this happen there's a full pizza in my dog's mouth because I was in my phone for five seconds exactly like living in New York City you'll walk down the street and all the sudden your dog is eating a rotisserie chicken and you're like where did you get that I'm not kidding you that one of the times because I can be distracted by my phone, job, other things in a perpetual quest to be present,
Starting point is 00:15:30 there was a time I looked up and found in my dog's mouth a dead iguana. Are we sure? Or was it just like, they were the frozen ones? I left the house this morning, and thank you, Billy, for that advice. It is very, very hard to trick my wife, to get out and about in a way that gives me the time
Starting point is 00:15:53 to do something that requires hours of thoughtful, okay? I had the plan to allege I was going to work this morning and then go handle what I needed to handle. This is perfect, now you're not even lying. Well, but I'm here and I don't have the time to get the gift because the gift I have is to spend Valentine's Day with Billy Gilt. Well, I mean, I appreciate that gift, but now you have time to go do stuff. Valerie, yeah, it was a long day, lots of meetings. You're a big man of business now, Dad. You're a baron of sorts, you know?
Starting point is 00:16:26 You have to go around, you have to have all these meetings and do all of these things and just tell, look, this is why you have assistants. You just say, fill up my schedule with nonsense, just put on there. I'm meeting with, you know, whoever it is. And then I would even,
Starting point is 00:16:39 and I hope, is Valerie listening to the show? She's probably listening, because she's like, where is Dan? Perfect, my wife doesn't listen to the show either. So don't feel bad, don't think it's like a personal thing, Valerie doesn Valerie listen to the show? She's probably listening, because she's like, where is Dan? Perfect, my wife doesn't listen to the show either. So don't feel bad, don't think it's like a personal thing, Valerie doesn't listen to the show, it's not. All of our spouses hate the show. They just, it's not the show,
Starting point is 00:16:53 it's us that they really are tired of. So I think- It's the show too, they resent it. I think what we should do is the five of us in here should make a pact, right? And I think that we should all come up with a code word together, for no reason other than funsies. And then what you do, Dan, is you tell your assistant, whenever it is that you have errands to run or whatever
Starting point is 00:17:12 and you don't want Valerie to know, you say that I have a meeting with, and then the code word, like the code name. And that's just a fun little thing for all of us to share together. And then we can all use that on our own thing. So then when you're like, hey Jeremy, I can't do
Starting point is 00:17:25 You know pitch clock or whatever I have a meeting with Keith or whatever name we decide then we know now not Kyle because Kyle That's Chris it's really gonna confuse Chris if we do that so we can't like don't let that's not over complicated All right, we'll work. We'll work on the simplicity of this plan But when you say to me just tell your assessed assistant fill your schedule with nonsense. Yes, she's already doing that Yeah, yeah, and it's not because I'm asking her to know I know but you instruct on Valentine's Day all nonsense Okay, no business. Okay, all nonsense. Oh nonsense on Valentine's Day. Take my nonsense to noon, please It's like the special lucky charms. That's all charms Hey there wellness warriors. If you're like me, you've given a lot of thought

Me, I could do that. I could replace James Corden, right? I actually agree with you on that. If I don't have to move to LA and I could just do this
Starting point is 00:21:35 somewhere near in the Tamiyami area, like they have an old, you know, theater that's kind of abandoned right now, maybe we do something there. I mean, people like to come to Miami, right? You turned the abandoned Kmart into your late, late show studio. Yes, I didn't even think about that. Wow, that's a theater right now. Maybe we do something there. I mean, people like to come to Miami, right? You turned the abandoned Kmart into your late late show studio. Yes, I didn't even think about that. Wow, that's a theater right there.

Thank you, I appreciate you allowing me that privilege. I saw something the other day and we'll get back to whatever it is that we were talking about. Thank you. I appreciate you allowing me that privilege. I saw something the other day and like we can criticize the Kelsey's for any number of things, right? Like it's just sometimes it's overexposure. It's too many things on the Kelsey's. The Kelsey's reinvented cereal and I didn't even know that cereal needed to be or could be
Starting point is 00:22:21 reinvented and they made a mix, they must have made a deal with like General Mills or something, right? Where they basically took like three of General Mills' most popular cereals and they just re-released it as like a Kelsey mix. So I have a picture of it right here, which is not great. So there's a TV if you want, you just scroll on my Twitter.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Billy, I've never seen this before. It's Reese's Puffs cinnamon toast crunch and lucky charms Yeah, all mixed together in one box. So like they just did like a third. Oh my god. It's Terrible. Like honestly, I feel like that would be it's like marshmallow sweet marshmallows of Lucky Charms the peanut buttery Reese's puffs and then the cinnamon CTC. Yeah, that's too much. It's no's great. I didn't buy it, but it's great. That sounds good. No, it's gonna be incredible. That sounds like it'd be amazing.
Starting point is 00:23:07 You put a bowl of vanilla ice cream and you put that on top as a little topping. You mix it in and make like a milkshake with it. Yeah. So what are we doing for Valentine's Day? Do we get the gifts? Are we doing flowers? Do you need to do more than just flowers?
Starting point is 00:23:19 I'm getting that for Lehman. I think he would really like the Kelsey mix. Yeah, you should. 1-800-FLOWERS, shout out to them, you know? Put it on the poll, please, Juju at Labotard Show. Juju and a group of others, we've got a whole cavalcade of people at the basketball at the NBA All-Star game. We've got a ton of people there, so I don't know if Juju is handling the polls today or
Starting point is 00:23:36 not. But did the Kelseys reinvent cereal? Does cereal need reinventing? And is sugary cereal diabetes in a box? Put all three of those questions up on the poll. Do you think people are finding out as they're watching this, today's Valentine's Day, like are we doing a solid for a bunch of listeners that forgot? Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:23:56 A public service? So like if it's, if you're listening to this live, it's Friday morning, what Billy is a good thing for our listeners to get their significant others that it's not too late Because look we all know there's gonna be a long line at the florist right now. Don't waste your time in the florist line What what should they get them Billy you go to 1-800 flowers? Obviously should have already that that Were past that it's not too late, I don't what do they do this is shop local Yeah, you yeah, you can go around. I think that you need to get, honestly,
Starting point is 00:24:28 at this point in time, it depends on your budget, right? But I think that the way you can get away with it if you don't wanna spend a lot of money is you just get a lot of nonsense. Again, we just fill our schedule with nonsense for the day, and then you get a lot of nonsense, and then you fill it with why it's meaningful, and why it's so important to you and to your spouse.
Starting point is 00:24:48 And then if you can find things that are actually meaningful, that's absolutely great. But if you can't, then what you do is you get something so obscure and so meaningless that what you do is you then try to take it back to like your first date or second date. Like this is the cereal we ate on our first date. Exactly right.
Starting point is 00:25:06 You just get something that has absolutely no meaning whatsoever. And you lie. You lie, you lie. Honestly fabricating. Hold on, hold on a second. Something so bland that could be simply forgotten because why would anyone remember it?
Starting point is 00:25:18 And then what happens? There's no way to disprove it, right? And then your spouse or significant other in turn feels bad for not having such a fondness for this item that you think is so important to your relationship that you just made up because you forgot about Valentine's Day. That then it strengthens your bond.
Starting point is 00:25:38 The problem is you also then need to kind of really like what that is because then that will be a meaningful thing in your relationship moving forward. So like partially lie but if you're on a budget what you need to do is just get trinkets and then try to fill it with meaning and then you just write like a nice letter. The problem is it's always like this thing like I love you so much thank you for being part of my life, journey this, whatever, our souls united, something about boats and then boom done.
Starting point is 00:26:03 XOXO. Excellent work, especially punctuating it, the dismount like a gymnastics routine with the kiss. Yes, that was beautiful. The way that you- That's why they call me Kerry Strug of love. Yeah, the way that you link up with your significant other is to be aggressively bland, lie,
Starting point is 00:26:21 and strengthen your bond by making that person feel bad because they don't remember something that you're lying about being meaningful. I'm here for Billy Love Coach to work alongside Billy yesterday's fear coach, however it is that you want to give seminars on this stuff, perhaps like Tom Cruise in Magnolia. Listen, I think everybody knows that the true foundation of a healthy relationship is a good dollop of lying. Oh yeah. Put it on the poll at LeBataard Show.
Starting point is 00:26:48 Is the good foundation to a good relationship a healthy dollop of lying? Do you guys make Valentine's Day and other holidays a contest also? You want to win Valentine's Day, right? You try to see what it is that the gift was and you're like, I'm gonna get a better gift and I'm really gonna make you feel better. I have a healthy relationship. I in fact, put it on the poll as well, are you competitive on Valentine's Day? You gotta win the day.
Starting point is 00:27:16 No, well. Imagine the Harbaugh's doing Valentine's Day. Not to bring this back to sports. Carpe Diem. I am the opposite on that. I would be perfectly fine if Valentine's Day was just me giving and not getting anything. I don't have to.
Starting point is 00:27:32 That means you wanna win. Yeah, you desperately wanna win. I mean, yeah, you wanna win. To run up the score, really, is what you're saying. Right, so you are the opposite. Well, cause like, Valentine's Day is to make your partner feel bad, but there's different ways of making them feel bad.
Starting point is 00:27:45 There's either the guilt of, oh wow, I didn't do enough, or then just the feeling bad of, they didn't do enough for me, they don't love me. So there's only two feelings, and it's bad or bad. So you need to choose which bad you wanna deliver that day. I thought Valentine's Day was about having a fun, sexy time. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:03 You're not married yet. I guess I am the only unmarried person on the show right now. Tony, Tony, I will say some people have noticed, Tony, young, vibrant, young buck, have noticed that 43 days of having a baby have had their toll on Tony. Oh wow. Wow, that's rude. Guy hasn't seen a worm in 25 years. That's also true
Starting point is 00:28:25 by the way. I haven't seen a worm in a long time. Um yeah, hey, you know, I don't sleep. There's that. I feel like Dan where I'm like writing emails to myself at three in the morning to make sure that I remember Miami's top five smells. I'm like, oh, this is great. This is great content at 3.45 in the morning. Let me explain to you something that's been happening here because I'm trying to take some advice from John Amici on how to properly run a company And John Amici has suggested among other things that whatever emails I have in thoughts at three o'clock in the morning to just program my devices So those send at eight o'clock in the morning and so I just learned the other day
Starting point is 00:29:00 This is not something that I even knew i could do with my email that if i just to hold and press on the send for a little bit it will give me some options on what time i can send so i've been doing that for about ten days but i have not received an answer for one of those emails so i'm pretty much assuming i'm doing something wrong because i'd like not a one of those emails do i have confirmation that it has landed wherever it is that it's supposed to land have you considered it's the content of the email that is it might be no I can't tell it nobody around here you can't tell like the way people infrequently answer stuff around here I really have no idea they could just be in drafts and they were
Starting point is 00:29:40 scheduled to send or maybe you put like the wrong year, and then like we're really gonna be confused in 2027. Next February we're gonna get so emailed. Exactly, what is this now? Speaking of sports, let's go ahead to this incriminating photo of what would appear to be Jimmy Butler pooping his pants. We've got Jimmy Butler created all of that for the Miami Heat at the end, and then he took it with him,
Starting point is 00:30:02 and now it resides in his uniform, and people are just assuming right there is no other answer for that it's not the Golden State Warriors person is having a bad laundry day it's not like that is what it takes to get 13 free throws a game what is bad laundry day entail I've never heard of detergent sometimes all of a sudden you look at you like oh It's a stain, but you know what they won't notice It's like a bad arm day have you never thrown anything in the laundry and it comes out a different color than it was supposed To be because you did something wrong whatever that is. I don't what other explanation does the laundry do we have for this? What other explanation I mean maybe like a very we mentioned this very briefly yesterday maybe a very unhydrated pee. Like it really like bad on the pee chart in
Starting point is 00:30:50 terms of you know not staying very hydrated so a very dark urine. It's a little back there though. And all of the people are assuming it is poop but I'm with Jess on this I thought well that's urine colored that's like a very light poop that that Jimmy Butler is producing. He drinks a lot of urine colored. That's like a very light poop that that Jimmy Butler is producing He drinks a lot of coffee then that that a lot of call. Okay, so he's dehydrated Right that that is what I'm not that he has Self as a result drinking a lot of coffee could also be super full both I was I was insinuating dehydration. I don't know if you guys have ever seen this video
Starting point is 00:31:22 I learned this from Floyd Mayweather. learned it from that I would say pioneering Sports series that followed Floyd 24-7 Floyd Mayweather was training and I did not understand how this could be. I still don't understand how it can be His urine was brown and I don't know what was happening there in terms of how he is training that would make it because obviously he's exercising more than most human beings exercise in a day but I did not know that a healthy person could have brown urine. Put it on the poll at LeBotard show, can a healthy person have brown urine because this is not merely a healthy person. This is one, you know, ostensibly one of the healthiest people one would imagine. Even if you're
Starting point is 00:32:10 living your life recklessly, you're certainly living it in a way that is adhering to fitness at the very, at the very least. You would think maybe some extra substances around the, you know, interesting. Can you guys explain to me, can you guys look up some things that would explain to me? Cause I still don't have the answer as to why it is that Floyd Mayweather might have brown urine other than dehydration because that's what I assume related Kidney related perhaps some bodily functions not working one of the one of the lower organs, perhaps It was stunning to see I'm gonna say 10 years ago from somebody
Starting point is 00:32:46 who doesn't have any public health issues anyway I just don't have an explanation for what it is. It's all saying just severe severe dehydration severe dehydration so he was constantly getting IV drips to try to avoid that but that seems to be it was literally brown. It's great. Reddish brown is how it's described. So we have Jimmy, do we have Jimmy having that same situation? No.
Starting point is 00:33:09 Well that's not even brown though is the thing. Jessica was very astute here, and I don't know if she wants to be our urinologist or not, but she was very astute in saying that this does not look like brown. This does not look like the color of anything that comes from the back. It looks like my babies.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Liquid? Yeah. What? Yeah, like you know when the baby's obviously taking Leche from a petro all of a sudden like you know when the baby's obviously taking leche from a petio all of a sudden, you look into the diaper and it's like, oh, that's an interesting color of... The color of the stuff that comes out of babies is wild.
Starting point is 00:33:34 It's diabolical sometimes. Sometimes it's green, sometimes it's yellow, there's a dark brown, a light brown, there's purple, like it's insane how much whatever they eat. The first one is black. Yeah, oh like tar. You could fix a roof with baby poop when it comes out how much whatever they eat. The first one is black. Yeah, oh like tar. You could fix a roof with baby poop when it comes out the first couple weeks.
Starting point is 00:33:48 It's crazy, Dan. Put it on the poll, Juju at Levitard Show. Can you fix a roof with a baby's first black roof? Yeah, it's as sticky and like, the crazy thing is, doesn't smell. At all. At all. Like doesn't smell like anything. I got real close to it too.
Starting point is 00:34:04 Doesn't smell like anything, and then all of a sudden you hit like one and and you're like what like what is this horrific smells they're a dead animal in the house is like no the baby's poop smell kicked in and now it's terrible forever but it starts at like one years old so it happens with all babies you're like that first poop doesn't smell like anything but but the second one is the worst thing that's ever been in your house? No, no, no. You have like a year where it doesn't smell like anything, so it's like I don't care about any of this. You get it on your hand, you're like, eh, whatever. You lick it off. Why don't they teach us this in school?
Starting point is 00:34:37 This is unbelievable. Why don't they teach us in school? I never knew this. I gotta tell you something, if you guys have children, they don't teach you anything. They don't teach you shit. Not a't, they don't, not a thing. Like these movies that are like, oh I need to go to parenting class. That's not a thing that exists. I mean I guess it is if someone's out there trying to, you know, take money from you, they'll tell you like,
Starting point is 00:34:53 oh I'll teach you how to be a parent. But like, they send you out of the dealership without even a manual on this car. They're just like, you ready to go? And you're like, this baby popped out like 24 hours. They're like, yeah, yep you got this good luck. They don't even walk you to the car anymore. No.
Starting point is 00:35:08 They put you in the wheelchair. Jenny was sitting outside at South Miami Hospital. I'm driving around the car and she's there by herself. By herself. She doesn't even have the brakes of the wheelchair. By herself, well don't mention the hospital. Sorry. You guys have to understand in, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:18 I'm gonna say that my childhood was filled because I had parents who were exiles and living in this country and scared and in their second language, my life early on was filled with a great deal of responsibility, okay? Just I was responsible too early for childhood to be normal. When you tell me the idea, when you give me the idea of, here's this thing that you don't know how to take care of, and if you do this poorly, it can die. And then they wave to you where the machines
Starting point is 00:36:00 and the experts are, and they send you in the car to even put that thing in the car to me begins a life that I clearly do not want. Like I clearly don't want that responsibility for a screaming shit monster, even if the shit doesn't smell like anything for a year, because you're not going to give me a handbook, you're not going to tell me what I'm going to do alone at two o'clock in the morning when a sound gets made that I don't understand. And they make a ton of them by the way. Oh, they won't shut up in the morning. Oh my God. Shut up. Exactly. Grunting. I was like, didn't we bring them a pig?
Starting point is 00:36:34 What is this? And then the arms are flaming and you're like, Oh, she okay. Oh, no, you gotta put it in a swass. Swallow that baby. Swallow that baby hard. Make sure those arms can't move. She didn't like the swaddle. She wanted her. That's what you say. Hey baby, tough shit, you're getting swaddled today. I would swaddle her underneath her arms so her arms could be free. No, rookie move.
Starting point is 00:36:50 She sleeps like this with her arms out. You've lost all control, have another kid because you've lost control of that one. That kid is never gonna listen to you now. If that kid doesn't put on the swaddle properly, you're never gonna get control of that child. It's a lost battle. Okay, so next one?
Starting point is 00:37:02 Next baby, give up on this one already. Lovely, just give up on it. Lost causes, baby. Sorry, Dan. Put it on the poll at LeBretard Show, you are not sorry. Do you swaddle that baby hard, tough shit baby? Yes or no?
Starting point is 00:37:14 You have to, yeah. You need to let the baby know really early on who's boss. And it's hard to do so because you see the baby, you're like, oh, I love you, you're in charge, but you're the boss, and never forget it. Jessica, I heard you mention you wanna be swaddled. I'd never heard the word swaddled before you guys just mentioned it. It's not a word I had ever heard. What about baby Jesus? He was swaddled.
Starting point is 00:37:33 He was in a manger. Thank God for that. Put it on the poll as well, Juju, even though it might not be Juju. Have you ever used the word swaddle? Yes or no no I wanted to ask you guys something here before we get out of the local hour Bill Simmons reported that he saw Tyreek Hill at the Super Bowl and this is some of the greatest flimsy reporting I've ever heard in my life like I'm here for all of it I wish more people would do it more I'd be totally fine I would be totally fine with a channel, a network dedicated every day to getting news this way. Bill Simmons saw Tyreek Hill at the Super Bowl and somebody in Tyreek
Starting point is 00:38:15 Hill's group just said while leaving, watch out for the Chargers. I would have a news network dedicated to the people around athletes just telling me what to watch out for cuz tyree kill is already done stuff on on social media that points out the chargers the chargers are gonna do something like it's not it's not gonna be a hardball saying hey herbert's the best quarterback and talent wise that i've ever seen and i'm
Starting point is 00:38:44 not going to get him another keen seen, and I'm not going to get him another Keenan Allen, and I'm not going to get him another Mike Williams. They're going to get something over there that ends up feeling a little more stronger on offense, and Tyreek Hill, I don't know how much time he has here, but he has liked the Chargers, however it is you do that privately, publicly, when you're liking stuff on the internet. And I think, didn't he just retweet something? Didn't he retweet a story about interest from the Chargers?
Starting point is 00:39:16 Yeah, I was worried how that story was gonna start because I thought that we wanted to have a channel dedicated to following Tyree Kill around 24 hours a day, which I thought, bad idea, bad idea, we don't need that. Speaking of people, the last thing he retweeted was the story about Noah Lyles challenging him to a race, which I'm not like, oh, I wanna watch this, I care so much about the track versus football,
Starting point is 00:39:39 I would watch the shit out of this. I would watch this race. How would you handicap that? Man, I don't think it's close. Like I think the track star is better at running track than any other who plays sports. Like I think Tyreke wanted to do a shorter distance so then it's all about the burst at the start. Okay well I guess that's a different thing but I thought we were doing it over the I thought we were doing it over a hundred meters thought we were doing it over 100 meters.
Starting point is 00:40:05 How about we put some pads on Noel Lyle, get out to the one yard line, alright, and then run 99 yards against Tyreek Hill. I think most people would watch that. What I am though deeply tired of is Tyreek Hill threatening to make that happen with everybody and then it never happens, like with anybody. Never happens.
Starting point is 00:40:21 Okay, and at this point, Tyreek Hill's not in his prime on speed anymore. Like whatever, I'm not saying anything with anybody never had to say that i get okay and at this point tyrick hills not his prime on speed anymore but whatever that i'm not saying anything that shocking to everybody to anybody correct like you don't get but how many world-class printers are there in the thirties i thought the prime for an athlete is going to always be in your
Starting point is 00:40:40 twenties so i would assume that whatever tyreek hill is a fast now it's not the fastest he's ever been my guess would be that it's the slowest he's been in his athletic prime I would guess. You gotta sell on him right like if you can get anything for Tyreek Hill you sell now because before it's too late. Well before he loses the race potentially which apparently is on sometime this spring or summer. Yeah maybe. It's already too late Billy Billy. It's already too late. I'm sorry to break your heart.
