We'll be hearing more from

them throughout the playoffs and on the show here as well. It's gonna be an assortment of different people from Juju's life. The the the topics today though Juju, I don't know what caught fire, what didn't. I imagine Zaslow is very popular and polarizing. What happens with this seat, the seat of stardom, the Stugat seat, he has now been formally asked to be a guest on ESPN Radio this evening as a featured component of their pregame coverage because stardom comes to those who are homerific around here. So congratulations, Zaslow, on your promotion.

Are you gonna wear that same thing or no? Well, this is an audio medium tonight, so. He's a radio legend, but a regional legend, not a national legend. He is now becoming a national voice with ESPN. But Juju, what has been the Zaslow commentary over the last couple of days? First of all Zaslow you look incredible I mean thanks folks that once they put your their name up on ESPN as a celebrity bracket picker then they can comment on your wardrobe you dig it

until then everybody needs to take a step back and salute greatness. Also too, I thought you were bowing on the soap situation. Not only do I take my own soap to hotels, I take my own towel, rag, pillowcase, and bed sheets because hotels are a disgusting place, bruh. My skin is very sensitive, you feel me? And one time I was in a hotel not to be named in Miami Florida I pulled back the sheet there were blood on my sheets, bro. No, I was like no It was blood on the sheets dog and it was also a booger melted into the towel You know most people use those towels to step on

once they get out of the shower. So I bring all of my stuff to the hotel because my skin is delicate, baby. So I agree with your Zaslow. If it ain't broke, don't fix it and bring that soap that you wipe. I would also say though, that generally speaking, the Cody's are on a cruise together

and the Cody's together as a team are unhygienic, the both of them. And Juju is fairly often disgusted by just their lack of hygiene. So I wouldn't call you a germaphobe, but I think, Juju, around here, you come a hell of a lot closer to Samson than you are to the Wolverines around here in terms of just making sure things around them are not disgusting. I mean, we always say Samson is the standard. I don't see Samson as this clean thing. Samson is one of the most disgusting things I see as well. I think I may be further down the spectrum than him.

He puts his hand in a bag of jelly beans and puts them directly in his mouth. I haven't put something directly in front of my hand in my mouth since Obama administration. I don't agree with how he live at all. Salute to his germophobia. I'm not trying to get fired, I'm fine. Don't wanna talk bad about David Samson, you know, but I think I'm a little bit more on

the germaphobe spectrum than he is. I want to have actually a germaphobe off if we can do that between you and Sampson to ask you guys questions to see if you are indeed a better germaphobe than him. What about- Don't get me started on that soap in the shower that's nailed to the tile. The tile, don't get me started on that soap. Please, Zaslow, I feel you. Thanks, man. Good support there. How about, how about, how has Zaslow gone over with the audience?

Having more of a homer than all the heat homers we have couldn't have been great. That my friends is a whole entirely different subject. Yesterday, he became one of the most, he's popular everywhere he goes, but he was very popular for his ribs take, how he doesn't eat ribs. How about that? Offset! No, he's very popular, well I should say polarizing. Hogsmash from Twitter says, imagine being so afraid of having some sauce on your face that you deny yourself the actual absolute culinary glory of wings and ribs There's other food true shame. It's not a lack of food. There are other foods

Appreciate your hog smash Mr.. Rich 61 83 says get him out of here Whoa the point I don't want to eat your ribs? No, this is a different reason. But it is, you're just simply disgusted by anything that is finger food that's gonna leave any- It's not worth the try, I don't have to take a bath after I eat.

CeeLoBrown27 says, the funniest part is that he said he can eat pizza without making a mess cause he's not two, but can't eat a wing. Again, not worth the trouble. Mike Fizz says worst take of our time on this show and that's saying something. People like ribs people are willing to take whatever mess is just get some just get some wipes. Ken Silvano says he's full of shit. So who's more full of shit, you or Jimmy Butler? Definitely Jimmy Butler because I'm telling the truth.

I don't like wings, I don't like ribs. He's saying money wouldn't have made a difference. He's full of shit. Tom Babaldi says I get the sensory issue of not wanting your hands to feel sticky, but as he kept going sheesh. Good distance. You know these are these are loyal supporters. We gotta, you know what I mean, let them be heard. I need to hear your thoughts by the way before we get to some polls and I didn't actually talk at all about that Maryland buzzer beater the other day, but you're

wearing USC geared today and I imagine you like L. Duncan. Like, I imagine someone who cares about the sport the way and people you do that you wake up with a little sickness in your stomach on last night's story. Right, I was watching the game, dawg, and my everything stopped. I had action on a lot of NBA games, but I turned all that off.

I couldn't breathe anymore. It was so disgusting to see my sister, Juju Watkins go down with that knee injury. Cause you know like what she means to that city. You know what she means to that team. You know what she means to basically just women's basketball everywhere. And to see her go down in the,

the March Madness tournament, it's just so sad, man. Salute to Kiki for stepping up last night. Salute to her teammates for having her back. You feel me? But I can't help but be just, just feel very sick to my stomach, which is, I think it plays into the, the Cooper flag conversation I was having yesterday.

Why he should take his ass on, don't give a damn if it's the Wizards, the Hornets, and get that bread because your, your knee go out in one of these situations. Now, like Jeremy said, your, your career is pushed back a year and you only get that bread because your knee go out in one of these situations. Now like Jeremy said, your career is pushed back a year and you only get that option to have that Jimmy Butler contract that he just got.

Your career ends a little bit more like some of the guys who just had to go out, sadly, because of injury, man. Salute to him, bro. The best ending of the tournament has been the Maryland game, right? Maryland in their conference tournament gets broken by Michigan half court. Full court, last five seconds of the game against Michigan, that's how Maryland loses.

Now Maryland advances to the Sweet 16 on a buzzer beater. Is that the best moment from both tournaments so far? Yeah, it could be. I think so even though I had heavy action on Colorado State, that shot sent an arrow straight through my heart. Oh my goodness just like Rippertino heart like but credit to Queen you feel me? The debate started online though it looked like he might have taken an extra step. Do not. I'm not don't. I'm not gonna look, Tony. I'm not gonna look. What you think, bro?

What you think? What I think is it was a game winner and we're not gonna have the Zebra steal this one from us. It's not gonna happen. But it was. It might have been three steps. It might have been a gathering of three steps. But the bank shot went in, he called Glass, I heard it,

and the Zebras, the dorks, we're not gonna take this from us. We were gonna get that buzzer beater. By any means, as low. I didn't think it was a travel. Thank you He's saying okay. See stop the steel Don't let the zebra steal it Look that's proof Zas low. I love you brother. You are the biggest celebrity I know thanks, but you gotta understand that that was a travel to call it in that place I get you don't wanna ruin the game reps,

but that was actually a travel. And that's what's wrong sometimes with today's society. Kids watch that and they mimic that. Oh, Queen at the buzzer, one, two, three, and they're gonna take that to their rec league. No, I think the referee should bite down. You know what I mean? And dare I say, throw the little whistle in there

and help Papa get his action from Colorado State. There it is. By the way, LeBron's been traveling for 25 years. That hurts, though. To have like a heartbreaker, yeah. But wait a minute, did you have him on the Moneyline? You had Colorado State to win? I'm in a Survivor League where like,

I think it's like 18 out of the last 22 people had chose Maryland and the cash is Exponential right now and I was about to be right there at the cash now. We're all back in it Maybe you should have checked me out. I'm a celebrity expert picker on ESPN radio's tournament bracket challenge Yeah, I'm gonna check you out too. I also want to everybody, everybody make sure you check out Jimmy John's, you feel me? Go check it out. I keep my most valuable possessions in there. Some little confetti from the 2024 champions, the actual confetti. Just making sure that my brother's celebrity Zaslow sees that.

I mean since the Miami Heat have been alive, they've had three times there's confetti that's rained down Celtics just twice. In the words of my missing brother What have you done for me lately still gots? I see you Cat mount 96 says L Duncan should be on the show weekly and I support that as well as my sister bring it every time I salute the L salute to my dog Tony. He tried to get kill monkey in there And I don't know that you did you know I the world. But you knew about the DAP? Of course I knew about the DAP.

Thank you. But that divided the whole internet chat. That divided the back row of feels like. That's the cleanest DAP I've ever seen a coach give ever. It is, brother. And as a person who's going through, I've been seven months of straight just therapy. I've been in the gyms, therapy and counseling.

I suggest you guys, you know what I mean? Love each other. Everybody just love each other. No matter your Mokies, ties, or no matter your whatever ties you have, just love each other, especially on air. You dig it. It's a great dismount.

First poll What is a smarter animal the dolphin or the octopus? 54% of the audience says the dolphin is smarter than the octopus. Sheesh. I was close Hell yeah Second poll is the fight won by the first genital biter Second poll is the fight won by the first genital biter. I would tap out. 85% of the audience says yes it is. Who are the 15% who think that we're still going after that?

Probably people in wheelchairs. Salute to them. Over under the age of the person who caused the police the fuzz. 78% of the audience says over 100 years old caused the police the fuzz. And those are your polls. Thank you Juju. Thanks Juju. Thank y'all.
