Oh, man. You know, we got the biggest of the big one tonight. You feel me? And we got Scooby snacks all across the board. Usually. Just like I usually, I bet Sunday, Pittsburgh Steelers, every ride receiver. because it was like five yards each,

that's how I usually go with these old Miss guys. But they plan that vunted Miami defense. So I got to narrow it down tonight. First leg, I'm going with Harrison Wallace, the third, not the fourth. You feel me? For over five catches, man, five catches. He going to have to. There's going to be a lot going on out there.

You did. Second leg, I'm sticking with it. them boys design stribling aka the scribbler I'm going with my boy for over four catches tonight you got to dig him the scribbler I see you brother next leg I'm going with Keel and Marion from the from the you you dig it I'm going with my boy to have three receptions tonight and the last leg big flesh you know we need big flesh tonight to tote that ball to tote that rock So I'm going with him for over 16 carries tonight.

And the Fiesta Bowl. Jump in, man. Can you guys help me figure out before we get to the rest of what it is we're doing with Juju here, including two top five lists? I want to simply be on for the rest of the day today until after the game. But no one wants to do it with me. And I feel like I'm just going to do a stream. I'm going to do a live cast tonight. by myself on the internet because none of you want to do it with me that i'm just going to be

alone at a microphone watching the game and no one else here wants to participate i think our audience would want it i think our audience would really enjoy spending that time with us but no one here wants to do it with me now juju bag me up on this is this another jake paul fight situation we're like this is a great idea and then what are y'all doing it where's the way you're doing this exactly don't get me started on the jay pot of it because oh boy y'all know me i'm course I'm shorty, so I'm used to a certain amount of, you know what, playerism with my tickets.

That boy, Dan sat us in the back corner next to the bathroom, boy, I'm like, no wonder he ain't come. Jude, I'm going to do you right now. This is what I suspect. I suspect. Tickets would have been a lot better had Dan Levitard been there. Once they figured out, oh, you know, Dan, wait a minute.

Juju, you think I put you in a back row? The look on Chris Cody's face right now is he was deeply mortified by the idea that we were offered the best of tickets and then all of a sudden I don't go and they don't become the best of tickets anymore. They was trying to see.

They was not just standing there to stand there. They was standing there because they couldn't see from our seats. I stayed an extra day in Miami for this. I could have went home to my boat. No one told me this. I thought you guys were going to be making stuff from that. Did you make anything? We did.

We made a ton of stuff. Thanks for watching, Dan. Where was that spaghetti? Juju, glass half full. We never would have met Tank had we sat anywhere else. Hey, we deserved it. What are your top five list, Judeo? What do you have for us today?

Well, first before I get to the top five list, I want to say, yeah, y'all tried to play me earlier on my Mike, McDaniel Glass's situation, but I serve an on-time, God. You dig? I don't know about y'all. So, doonglass is goofy as hell, and he got his goofy-ass fire two seconds later.

Salute. And as a fix, listeners, if the first listener this weekend that can show me that you are subscribed to at DLS Hoops and our DLS Hoops Soapstack. I'm going to sing you this brand new, never opened before a Miami Mike shirt to you in the mail to commemorate my boy getting the hell out of town. That's why I dressed for the occasion.

You did. You got that put together quickly. You got all your dolphin gear ready. Top five list. We got a couple of them today. Very fortunate. What do we do to deserve two top five lists today? I had one prepared, but then the conversation broke off.

And I was like, okay, let's go. get to this one as well. Top five shows to re-watch, you dig. And I'm not talking about your offices, always Sonny Martin, those comedies. We can play those all day, but just top five like dramas to re-watch. O-L-L-I, top boy.

You dig. The British one? Isn't it? I can't deal with the accents, man. I tried. I couldn't do it. Yeah, the same way I felt about pluribus. Whoa, B-U.

I'm glad all y'all are. Go's got to see you go nowhere. And number five, Shameless. I've never watched it. I was watching it last night, actually. I caught one episode by accident. I was like, this show was amazing.

What is this? And it was shameless. But I've never watched it. Exactly. Number four, the wire. There's three. I always clear to watch that. You did.

Come on, man. Number three, Fargo. Great show because every season is self-contained. But which season? Like, it's not, it was, four wasn't as good as the first three, wasn't it? Chris Rock? I like the Chris Rock season. I like every season of Fargo.

Fargo is always good. Me, three. Check any other seasons out. Like I mean, said, none of the seasons got nothing to do with the other one. Like True Detective, should have made my list. Just forgot all about that one. Number two, Breaking Bad. Never seen not one second.

Oh, you got to. It's really good. You have to. I only watched the last episode. Oh, what? Yeah. I remember I had never watched the series and it was like the biggest thing and I'm like, I knew the show is, I'm like, you know what? Let me check this out.

I know two scenes from the entire show. One is, you can't keep getting away with this because it's a meme and the other one is a, oh. I thought a good idea for a podcast would be watching series, the first episode and last of a series and then just trying to dissect the series just by the first and last episode. What would you call it? First and last. There you go. You've never seen breaking bad. Not even second.

You know what? Do you know why? Because it was out the same time as the wire and all these white people didn't want to watch the wire all of a sudden. They're like, oh, those guys are those drugs. This is so fun. I'm like, oh, I see how it is.

And then I'm like, I turned into like a principal thing. So you basically turned into Jason Whitlock. Oh, wow. Is what you're saying? Wow. Take that fast. That magic crazy. You take that back.

You take that back, Lord, Bellamy. Then watch breaking bad. God damn it. How dare you? Respect. That's the ultimate. Number one, Family Ties.

Game of Thrones. Come on, man. That's a hot take. You'll get sad, though, man. With a Starbucks cup in the 8th. That feels like a really hot take. In season 8, in season 8 where there's a Starbucks cup on the set in one of the scenes, that's, come on, Juju. We dive into this, by the way, Juju, on mystery crate this week, but where Chris said he watched the last episode of Breaking Bad without having seen the rest of the series, I actually watch.

while I was at work at Channel 7 back in the day when the last episode was airing of Game of Thrones I live tweeted the last episode without having watched any of the series nor watching the episode that's how many people

were tweeting about it on the timeline at that time I was just reacting to the reactions it was the thing but damn did you like the first four seasons of that show are probably the four best season

of television anywhere but yeah and I'm last two or three whew I don't know I ain't gonna lie they kept me glued I was still glued the same way I say

I like the Pluribus, I still mess with the game of thones in them. But what is the, I'm only through two episodes of Pluribus, so I haven't gotten to the rest of it. You're going to love it, yeah. I'm going to love it, but Juju is telling me to just stop. I'm telling you, bro, your life too important bit, bro. You got million-dollar deals to sign. You got folks to employ.

You got meetings to organize. The reason I want to watch it, though, is because Vince Gilligan, who made Breaking Bad, who made, I mean. Better Call Saul. Yeah, Better Call Saul. Those are two of the best television shows I've ever seen. so I'm assuming that this one's going to be good, too. Not a second. Yeah, well, I would compare this to this.

Michael Jordan is the best basketball player you've ever saw. I don't think you want to watch him coach the little league team. It's still boring. So salute to the goat, salute to Vince Gillian, but he missed with the pleuribis. We got to be able to be honest with these folks. Our heroes, you miss with pluribus, on my opinion. All right.

Did Vince Gillian miss with pluribus in your opinion at Lebitard show? What's the other top five list? you got? The other top five list is just stuff I forgot to say this week. Lights come on and I started looking at forward. I feel like that's a list you could do every week. All right. So you forgot to say so you need to do.

Might be looking at me. I'd be like, oh, no, never mind. Okay. So what are the five things you forgot to say this week? All right. O-L-L. You know how good of a football player you have to be to make the world just not even care about you trying to kill a man with a helmet.

I forgot about Miles Garrett. Yeah, tried to kill. There's a weird controversy. He deserved it. But so you really think that you think Rudolph called him the N-word? I believe Miles Garrett. Oh, I can believe it. Number five, y'all boys need to get some WD-40 on them carousels when you have to be riding them or something.

Thank you. You're so right about that. Everybody. Yours was going backwards. I was trying. I was in the chariot. Bleep off. I showed enthusiasm.

late in my career I showed enthusiasm for the stupid coaching Garriselle while Roy just sat there grinning not doing much of anything until I reprimanded it might die still hurt man what I'm talking about I won't back you up anymore Roy because you I apologize

I apologize I went too far I'm sorry no no no no number four the Oklahoma City Thunder Lows to the Hornets By 30 at home By 30 at home Dan texted me I did ask him

I'm like, why explain, explain this to me. Please explain it. Go ahead. It was distraught. Go ahead and hurry up and explain it. God, I'll let him finish his list. Number two, I call Snoop Dogg a hero. I forgot about what he been doing in the politics world.

You forgot, too, Jew. I ain't going to lie. Look, I was thinking about a career path. I'm like, dang, I like to be able to do sports and music. That's right up my alley. I forgot about all the other. stuff hand out of bounds on me uh-huh that's a lot of stuff you forgot

it was recent what happened in the last year man it's on me coach sorry about that number two Zaslow trying to steal that brother job what the hell was that that's right clean as dang

uh-huh that's right and got a nerve to still be like I'm gonna text him and see how he's doing do not look out there y'all try to steal my job don't text my phone man leave me alone bro salute this judge ass, though, judge ass.

And number one thing I forgot to say this week, man. We all forgot to say this. Congratulations to Chris Whittingham, man. Oh, yeah. My boy got engaged. Yes. Come on, bro. Look at that.

Thank you for, uh, yes. We've got to get some fancy lad in here. Let's go. Yes, sir. Chris Whittingham is a fancy lad. Okay, question. Does she know that he uses his oven as a clock? I mean, I would just.

I love to ask her a series of game show questions. We have to interview her. I cannot wait to see and watch how starched this wedding is. We have to have her on the show, and we just have to, you know what? We do true or false. And we come up with a bunch of things about Chris. Some of them are true, some of them are false. She has to figure out what's real and what's not.

That's a good game show. Yes, congratulations to the fancy lad, always happy. He is moving up in the world. As soon as he leaves here, he finds love. I've told you, Dan, many a time, were the weirdest experience. of my life is walking around my house and my dad likes to watch a lot of soccer on his iPad like either highlights

or full games, whatever. And I just I'll be like doing something like I'm like, how does that sound familiar? And I realize my father is watching a game that Chris Whittingham is called. He's a giant voice and he's calling the biggest games. He doesn't watch any he games on his iPad? He's very young and he's arrived at the top

of the world's sport and the World Cup is coming. It's great to watch all of it. Happy for Whittingham. Before we get to the polls here, Juju, do you have any Super Bowl predictions for us? Do you have any predictions in general? I got the predictions, bro. Unfortunately, my bills, man. Everybody's been saying that all week, oh, it's time for Josh Allen. Like, bro, our defense, our run defense is trash, man. I don't have too many high hopes for us in the Super Bowl era this year. No rubber tree.

No rubber tree plan. Not at all. But I definitely think we should hire how about all as a dog fun, neither here nor there. But I think the Super Bowl this year will be the L.A. Rams versus the Jacksonville Jaguars. I'm with you, Jiu, I like it. Wait a minute. So Juju's got the Rams winning three road games. You got them winning, I do. You got them winning three road games to get to the Super Bowl.

They got Devonte Adams back this week. That's what you took away from that. Instead of the Jags? Jack's sneaky hot right now, guys. I don't care how sneaky are. I would be so happy to see that. Jags in the Super Bowl? I like it.

It's an emotional hedge from Juju right there. That's what he's doing. All right. I'm doing the thing. Anyway, polls at Levitard show, Juju. Can you write as fast as someone speaks for 20 minutes? 91% of the audience says, no, they can't. Greg Cody alleged that he could keep notes for 20 minutes with somebody because he writes so fast.

Your father's delusional, Chris. Yep. Do reporters in the locker room still use pens? 54% of the audience says, no, they don't. They do. They do? A lot of them. older ones. The older ones. Got the reporter pad and everything.

The pad and everything. But they record it and then they, I look at the pad and, and it's just like a word to pretend like they are writing something down when a player says something interesting. No, you got to get that right. You got to get those, those quotes have to be accurate. People don't. Yeah, that's why they record it. None of them are writing the quotes down the way that Greg Cody is saying. But they're writing, or he's misquoting. They're writing thoughts down. They're recording, but they're writing. You can't read them. You can't read it. Not one of them. What else you got? Also, earlier this week, I don't. didn't put this on the pole because I didn't want to find out if the answer was yes on the pole but can you still say peg leg I heard it I just didn't put it up I didn't

want to beat him on the pole I am offended it's a hard I want to live dangerously it's not just wait a minute it's not just pirates who have prosthetics they just have peg legs that's No, a peg leg is not any prosthetic. It's a specific, it's a peg. You walk like this. No, no, it's a leg that's a peg. Look, the question being asked is not, can you still reference that a pirate has a peg leg? The question is whether or not you can refer to a prosthetic leg as a peg leg, and you guys just made it a pirate because you want to make jokes about a disability.

A boss. Walk the point. Yeah, see, this is the thing. It's fine to make fun of a pirate's disability. A thousand the blooms. You can go after the eye patch as well. It's a pirate. You can make fun of them all.

Shivermy timber. That's monster spot. David Jones Locker. Paul Skeins. Does Ed Orgeron look like that woman that your lesbian aunt has been bringing to Thanksgiving for the last few years? 97% of the audience say it. He said that one, man. It's actually me.

Jeremy did. I'm sorry that I sounded so disappointed that he got one funny. You were so upset that I got one right. Thought he was an ally. I'm an ally. Can you be shot without being surprised? 53% of the audience says, yes. A guy who calls an airplane a bird, douche or no douche.

82% of the audience says douche Oh, put this on the poll Please, Juju, do me a favor because I meant to call Mike Ryan out on this earlier in the show. He comes on the show and this is the reason

that everyone hates Miami and will hate Miami tonight. He's going to say why everyone hates my... Him saying that in the analysis of the vibes around the Miami football team that Miami's dialed and not saying the in

that Miami, he just said Miami's dialed, not Miami's dialed in douche or no dude. Guy who says Miami's dialed instead of dialed in because he can't. He's too busy to use the in there and he has to be cool with the dialed. That's why people hate Miami, right there. And last poll is family ties as good as a rewatch as the Sopranos. That's come back 100%.

78% of the audience says, no, it is not. Yelders. Those are your polls. Children. Dan, just to clarify, no Edward Cabrera Talker. Can you please play for me a hawk's old pirate song that just mentioned a bunch of different pirates? Blackbeard, Dale Barra, John McKay, Bill Day, walk the plank, eye patch, Vince DiMaggio, Bill Madlock, Jim Fragosi, Connie Mac, Willie, Stargelly, Mozilla, Lloyd McClendon, Six to Lescano. Treasure, Raymond James Stadium, Testa Verdi, Kishon, Johnson, Ken Obergfell, Ed, Ott, Dave Parker, Leroy, Selman, Chubucket, Michael Stott, Kent and Colby, Richies, is Greek Rush, and John Gruden.

We are scared of pirates. They are always scary, and they're never caring. Chris, do me the favor. I know you're fading this out. I just want to keep talking, so you guys can just go, and I'm just going to keep going here for a while. You can just put it on YouTube, and I'm going to see you later. I'm going to see, at some point here, I'm going to pop up on YouTube over the course of the next 12 hours and just start droning into a drink, how sad I am that I started a media company that everyone wants to go eat instead of work. I'm going to explain to people how sad it makes me that at this great time in University of Miami history, as the dolphins fire their coach and football matters more than it ever has, I've got a whole bunch of media people who don't actually want. want to do their job. I'll hang out with you, Dan. You want me to do it?

Don't I, Juju, would you like to hang out with me? If I put together, if I put together a guerrilla live stream tonight where we're just screwing around watching the game, would a few, I have not been able to get anybody to hang out with me. Nobody wants to work. I'm sort of, I'm a little bit surprised, Juja. I'm a surprised and mortified that at this, at this time in Miami history, when we've been talking football for 20 years, everyone's got something.

better to do other than just to pop up on YouTube and entertain our audience by watching the game with us. Like, who can we get together? Can you help me? Can you, Jeremy, and a couple of others, help me make something this evening that isn't quite as lonely as I imagine it's being because they left while I was talking about this, and I've been waiting for this game for 20 years, and you guys haven't met the moment with bigger.

Yeah, I'm there. You can count me in no matter what. Thursday night football is about the you tonight. So I don't be there. I would love to be right by you whenever they slay this dragon tonight. You should probably get Damashak, right? He'll talk. No, no, no, no.

I can't make it. No, I'm sure he can do that. No, no.
