We're going to get to Ju-Jugati in a second here and also a review, a Yelp review of the bowl bar that closed 15 years ago, right near where the Orange Bowl used to be. We're going to get to that in a second. But first, a hearty congratulations to our boy, Stugat. He is doing afternoons. He is returning to his lifelong love of live radio. He really missed it. So three to five every day, beginning this month.

Is it beginning today or is it beginning just this month? he will be on Fox Sports Radio 3 to 5. Afternoons are where we started a long time ago on live radio and he returns to his roots. We are expecting and hoping that he'll be back this month, but we were hoping and expecting that the last couple of months as well. So I think he's going to be back this month, but he's very busy. He's doing afternoons now on Fox Sports Radio. Yeah, I'll find out the start day on that.

I'll text him. I thought it was today. He's on vacation already. I texted him, hey, when are you starting? He's on vacation. He's co-host. Congrats on getting a response. Let's get to Juju in a second, but first, I don't know if Juju's ever heard what this Bull Bar review is.

How much of it do you want to read? This is, it's hard to explain to people. It's a small place. It's a dark place. It had an undercurrent of criminal element. As I said, the one time I was there, I had to go through an airport security radar. There were many people armed there. I was scared.

Did they have the MRI machine? An MRI. No. It wasn't a radar. It was just a metal detector. But we move on. Yes. The world's changing in a...

Orbital historic pace. You only got one flashlight in the cell phone, pal. Jeremy, what is the review say? Go ahead and read some of the source. Yeah, I'm just going to start reading and you tell me when to stop. Bull Bar aptly named for its proximity to the old Orange Bowl site and its exterior's resemblance to a place you'll likely find a lot of feces is both a wonderful and horrifying establishment.

At the same time, if that makes any sense. It's sort of a melting pot of sadness and various diseases. is that modern medicine may or may not yet have a cure for. It's majestic, really. As you cross the street from Marlins Park and make your way to Bull Bar, in parentheses, I can't imagine the Pepsi logo in the bar's name isn't breaking some sort of copyright law, by the way. Close parentheses. Still there.

You'll notice a brightly lit liquor store. That's not it. You want the next door, the one that looks like you're about to walk into a drug deal in the back of an abandoned building. I entered that tiny door, the gateway to regret. this is my story. Do you want me to continue? Yes.

The second I would like for you to continue, but instead of putting a hat on a hat, can you do it with a little less Bill Kennedy affect? Nope, that's who I am, Dan. Yeah, you can't change them. The second I walk into Bull Bar, I'm immediately transported to a strip club. You'd find in a detective movie

sometime between the late 70s and early 80s, mirrors line the walls, while the majority of the floor is taken up by a huge empty wooden bar. There aren't any strippers, but it's only 6 p.m., so who knows. No, there were women with lingerie. They weren't strippers.

They were just wandering around. You had to buy him drinks. The liquor store next door with the bright lights and neon signs is connected to Bulbar. The electricity apparently is not. And that's probably a good thing. There's a man passed out on one of the stools closest to the door. His head resting on the wooden bar.

He might be dead. The only other people in the place are a slightly intoxicated Spanish man on the other side of the bar and two female bartenders. My friend and I sit a few seats down from the court. corpse in order to coronas. Right away, we're unsure of our decision. Quote, these come in a bottle, right? Quote, I think so.

Quote, a sealed bottle? The bartender, a gigantic woman in a spaghetti strapped top, that's roughly 14 sizes too small. Not nice. Pops the caps on our beer and brings them over to us. $8. Would you like lime? She asked in broken English.

The lime does not come in a sealed bottle. We politely decline. After a few minutes, the bartender shuffles back from the liquor store. door with our change. One hand is holding dollar bills. Who? Hmm. The other hand is buried down her top, adjusting her massive boob. That's right. Which

seems as if it's about to come spilling out any second. She catches us staring and begins to laugh. We laugh. We all laugh. Together uncomfortably. Jujugati joins us now. Thank you, Jeremy. There's still four

paragraphs. You don't want those? Bring it home with the last one. If you're area. I can't say I recommend going to Bolbar. I also can't say I don't recommend it. I'm simply preparing you. And yet somehow, you'll still be unprepared. Was a guy alive? No, he's still there.

Jujugadi joins us now at Levitard Show is where it is that you vote on the polls. Juju, welcome. What do we have today in terms of critique or subject matter that we didn't get to? Oh, man. We've got a lot of stuff you didn't get to, but first of our salute, man. Happy New Year.

to everybody, man. Making it another year is, it's never underestimated over here, man. Lost a lot of friends due to a lot of different subjects. And so I really happy to be alive and happy to see you, brother, still kicking, you feel me. But y'all did not talk about the Colts had a double punt yesterday. I ain't never seen that, not even a double punt, double punt fake. Well, on fourth down they ran a punt fake. and then on first down, they ran the same damn punt people

out there, another punt fake, and got a flag on the team for a first down. They did like a hurry up, right? It was a tempo offense of our, we're going to do a fake punt. They throw it to Moelley Cox by the way. Moss is the defender. They hurry up and get back in a pump formation, and the Texans are like, wait a second,

what are we doing here all the time, time out, time out. Also, too, I want to throw out there earlier in the show Chris had this line there. I watch a lot of kids. I babysit a lot. This line from you, Chris, more like Tyler Poop, brother. That was a hit, bro. That was on a little kid comic view type. You feel me?

Are you applauding yourself right now? I'm applauding Juju, applauding me for having a good taste in humor. Do you know how much joy I got yesterday from Arizona has fired Jonathan Gannon. Oh. To hear the broadcast call. of Rigoberto Sanchez to Mo Ali Cox? Oh, yeah. That is Week 17.

Come on. Come on. That is the last Rigoberto. Go ahead, Juju. Yes, sir. Well, like I say, I'm happy to be alive. I'm happy to see you brothers. But over this break, man, I just, I had to get it out some kind of way to my takes. And so I took up of the mantle of saving top 10 observations from the break.

You feel me? So, number 10, the top 10 observation. Number 10 is that BYU coach, that way can go through some part tarts, bro. That was incredible, Juju. Right. He was going to scrape craze on the part tarts. Look to him, man. Got the dog.

Number nine, the spurs on the thunder, man. In a big way. In the biggest way possible. That was crazy to watch, right? Twice where OKC is just getting thrift. Three times. You dig it? Like even better than that. Number eight, I think that needing a get-back coach is nuts, bro. It's just the concept, brother. Like, brother, you get so worked up by this game. You got to have another grown man hold your belt loops. Bray, come on, man, calm down coach.

We need you. Let's save 50,000 a year. What would happen without the get-back coach? Like, the coach that's going to run onto the field in the middle of the play? Right. And eat a referee. you feel me. Number, what am I on? Number seven, number seven, unwritten rules. Get out of here. On what? You can make that comment any point. What happened during the break that is an unwritten rule-related thing? Yes, sir. Janus Ante Cumpo slammed dunked the ball with like, what, a second or two left. As they already was up about 10 prints, you feel me? Slown the ball and then the other team got mad. Oh, why did you score with no time? Brothers and sisters,

If the rule is unwritten, moving forward, 2006, if the rule is unwritten, it ain't a damn rule. Get out of my face, play some defense with two seconds left if you don't want me to NBA jam windmill on your style. Am I the only one who recognizes the irony in Ju-Ju saying this while wearing a St. Louis Cardinals hat, the kings of the unwritten rules? Okay, put it on the poll at Lebitard show. If the rule is unwritten, is it actually a rule? Number six, Tom Brady, we get it.

You hate plastic gloves. Come on, brother. We got to hear the whole game. You're going to say that, brother. We get it, brother. You to go. Move on. Number five, bathroom attendance.

I'm sorry. It's over with it. It's over. What's over? Just that. That entire being. They're leering, Dan. They're leering.

Exactly. Okay. This is my third time having the pee. Now I got to give you what? Five more. Like, what are you doing? Stop. I can drive my hands.

I feel obligated to give you something for giving me the towel to drive my hands. For a mint. For a couple of mints. Got at least have a Venmo barcode there or something. They've been crushed by the cash industry, right? They've been, they did a lot better when people were carrying cash, right? Nobody wants to go into their phone. That's why I got a point for him.

Finish it? I go, right there. A point? I go right there. Put it on the poll at Levittar Show. Do you have a finger point and no tip for the bathroom? You. I only have one of those things, that it's not the fingerpoint.

A real connection with the bathroom. You are not getting any money from me. But you. Any points at you, and then as soon as you leave the room, it turns into a middle finger. It is awkward. The whole thing's awkward. And then you're putting this poor person in a totally awkward situation. Nobody wants to give this person money for a mint or a starburst.

Nobody. Also, they usually have them at, like, bad places. Like, Bougainville is has a bathroom attendant. You're trying to be classy with your bathroom attendant. That's just a Starbucks and somebody trying to get $2 out of me. Why does boogies need a bathroom attendant? What are you attending, sir? Have you looked around?

This place is a disaster. Zagaki. Number four, what's the point of replay assistance? Me and Juj are on this. This is going to come back to bite one of these leagues. It's a slippery slope. What are you doing? Why are you waving a?

It's a slippery slope. I've been, me, is it a two and I? I don't want to steal his thunder here, but Juju and I have been saying this for a long time. One of these times, they're going to come in with the eye in the sky, is going to make a call, and it's going to be like, why? That's not fair, Dan. They pick and choose. They pick and choose when this eye in the sky comes out, and it's going to cost you a slippery slope.

You know why most places put in a bathroom attendant? Why? Nine times out of tenets to stop people from doing cocaine in their bathrooms, or at least provide an obstacle. Or sell it. In Miami, it doesn't matter. Number three, if your team has a losing record and you still happen to win the division, I don't give a damn. Over with.

What does that mean over with? The same way that Mike Ryan wants to bulldoze Lone Depot Park, what do you mean over with? That's it? You're making a new rule. Get the Carolina Panthers out of here? Over with. I don't give a damn about none of that. Congratulations.

You're on the South. Sit on the couch. we're going to allow someone who is right on the cusp a chance at greatness you feel me and it's noterdane congratulations everybody number two stranger things jeremy where you at pull up jeremy yeah right here this is our chance it's going to hurt to juju to give stranger things some credit it hurts you to do it or not no opposite are not now the finale the finale kick saving the bute you redeemed yourself although i did not need two hours of how they ended up after, spoiler alert,

they conquered what they was trying to conquer. Whoa. You did. Come on now, but the episodes leading up to the finale, Jeremy, come on now. Tell me how you feel when Mike shook the world. Yeah, this is complicated. There were so many different layers to these episodes

that everybody with the time in between them, as opposed to just one season drop, started to cook up all these different theories and the really disappointing and difficult part was like a lot of the theories that you saw kind of felt like they ended up being cooler and more layered than how the show actually finished up. Can I be honest?

The Duffer Brothers mailed it in. They wrapped it in a good place but there are four or five things that I would still like some answers to. There's a video that has 45 open loops from the season. Yeah, look, there are some things that's called mailing it, Dana. When you have open loops,

there are some things you're just never going to find out because they don't move plot forward. You can't close all the loops. You can't close every single loop. 45 of them. But it did feel like they throughout the show. No, the best ones do. No, the best ones always do. You got to have some loop.

The all-time classics close all of the loops. Cipranos. Okay, a loop is left on closing. People didn't like the ending. But all your other storylines get answered. What's the great classic that has 45 open-ended stories at the end? The open-ended stories, like there are more, there are some random characters that you don't know,

maybe what happened to them, but if it doesn't move the plot forward, then I can understand how that doesn't happen. But there are four or five questions left unanswered that really needed to be answered. It wasn't mystery. Sure, but when you multiply the main character and the main cast by 5X from the beginning of the season, like, what are you doing? You look back and there's 17 people and you're like, okay, I've got a storyline for each person. Now, what do I do here? Juju, did we get to number one or that was number two, right? That was number two. That's why I let Jeremy take it away. I knew he had us. You feel me?

Number one, though, four words, baby. The you is back, baby. That is the thing. Almost. Yeah, we're going to do a Cuban pregame show. Are we doing a fake pregame show for two weeks? They can't start on time if that's a case. Exactly right.

Hey, also, hey, not to throw my hat in the ring here, but, you know, we got Bill's Jacks this weekend. What do you say? Me, Tony, man on the street, you know, I mean. What is happening there? What is happening there, Judeo, do you have great confidence? He hasn't been confident in the bills in like two years. This is a nightmare scenario for Josh Allen, this particular team coming in there.

Yes, sir, bro. That's why I was saying earlier to my brother Nick Wright, that saying that just because Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson isn't in the playoffs this year, that, oh, Josh has this easy ticket now, that's not the case. I think that's an ultimate slap in the face for the Jaguars. lap in the face to the Patriots, you feel me? Because these guys put teams together. They didn't just rely on one person getting it done. Like you said earlier, Jacoby Myers coming over

there. You can look at the stats sheet, and it may be a little different, but when he out there running routes and making you pay attention to that, little Parker Washington is having a day. He looked like Tyree Hill out there. Well, that's what's happening. Parker Washington in the slot. Moving, what's happened with Brian Thomas and Parker

Washington is you've moved them to two and three on there, and it's totally changed their offense. Like I, in terms of, that would be the, I've got to assume the bills are favored there, correct? The bills at home are going to be favored. That would be the, that the game I'm looking at and I'm like, I could have totally see somebody goes. Bills are not at home. Jags are at home Dan. Jax is a three-season. Divor County, 904. But Bills are won that point favorite. The Bills are favored. Okay. Yeah, I would assume that the Jags will win that game. Yeah, for sure. Me too. I, I'm a big Bills fan. Yesterday, emotional day, clothes,

high, tears, red helmets. Come on, we should have played in them. all year, but I'm a realist. I think Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguar is looking too good right now. They got it going too high of a clip team-wise both sides of the ball for the Buffalo Bills to expect to win this. You did. Do we have a player of

the day? No R on that. A player. Player of the day. Bray, yes, we do, man. My brother, Kurt, big Kurt, not the little one. Stignetti. What's his name? Signetti. The Indiana coach? Oh, man, bro.

Right before the game, bro. They was going out there to the field team behind him at his back. He looked over. He saw Pat McAfee standing over there. He gave my boy one of these. And, hey, hey, chill, goosebumps. Let's see this thing. A bathroom attendant.

Oh, it's the same thing Tony gives the bathroom attendant when the guy wants a dollar for his feet. He's got more of a thumb. Mine's more, no thumb. Bro, two player, bro. That's what I know. These folks might do something this year. Let's go ahead and update the polls at Lebitard. show. What do we got?

It's Troy Aikman stealing money from the dolphins. 91% of the audience says, yes, he is. What is that? What is that? Why are we going to Troy Aikman as opposed to just going to Chris Collinsworth or Trevor Madditch? Or why are we going to Troy Akeman? So far he has a pretty good idea. Troy Aikman, the only level of expertise he could bring to the table, which is like,

hey, talk to someone from the Eagles front office. From what I heard from the big dog, it's he knows everyone around the league. Of course. He's got to feel a finger on the pulse of all the different people that are doing it right around the league. And he looked like Jay-Z, and Jay-Z know what he's doing, so I trust him. Did you learn the names of a bunch of back-up quarterbacks yesterday? 87% of the audience says, yes, they did. How is it the terrible, terrible football is still better than anything else?

Like, that was just such a bad, shitty football day. And at the end of it, here you go, Aaron Rogers and the Steelers. play another game even though nobody wants you to. And then of the wildest fourth quarter ever. It's just like, right when I was like, this day stunk. I love the, what can you do, Steelers and Ravens? I love the reporting on that. A rock fight turned into a track meet.

Yes, it did. You saved bleeping football. It was just running everywhere. It was a rock fight, and then all of a sudden it's a track meet. And football is saved. Is Michael Irvin's physical comedy as great as Jim Carrey's physical comedy? 60% of the audience says, yes it is. An all-time physical comedy great.

It's Dick Van Dyke falling over the ottoman. It's just, it's, who are the great, it's Chris Farley doing, doing, you know, cartwheels on the way up to Letterman's desk. That guy in Little Cote. Also, Mayor of Kingstown, I got my eye on you, too. I saw that. That finale, it's not over, but that finale was underwhelming Mayor of King's. Kingston. What's wrong with whimsy and joy? Sixty eight percent of the audience says yes.

Are you surprised that Austin Powers is 27 this year? Seventy-two percent of the audience says, yes, they are. And the last poll, is it okay to be rich and chilling and not doing anything all the time? 83% of the audience says, yes, it is, and those are your polls. Tony, I want you to go keep going all over South Florida and just randomly asking people what their network is. Deeply personal financial questions. Zaz, in 1927, Babe Ruth hit 60 home runs and 151

games. Then in 1961, Roger Maris hit 61 home runs and 161 games. That's right. Who should have been the single season home run leader at that point? The one who hit more home runs? That's why there's an asterisk there. I didn't put the asterisk there. You know about that asterisk? It is the origin of the asterisk.
