Jersey City, New Jersey, please drink responsibly responsibility billy's gonna help update the tournament people lost over the weekend our tournament march sadness but i mean i wanted to get your thoughts on diddy

here because uh... knowing this region a little bit did his life was here star island is as valuable a piece of land as there is to have it rated in south florida to have his sons uh... arrested and then to have video at opal locket airport okay it's the private airport we don't have a ton of private airports here but to have video of him pacing around in what looked like no matter what was going on in his life what we were managing to be going on with his life is he knows the feds are

closing in and he's got to make a decision about whether he wants to russell simmons this or not go to bali escape your crimes to your freedoms about and i mean uh... this video felt to me all jay simpson reminiscent on how to t m z get this video and maybe he's just wandering around waiting for somebody but we were all thinking is this person about to be a fugitive because

he needs to get away from his alleged crimes. What were your thoughts as all of this was happening? It's very similar to my thoughts about when the Donald Sterling thing happened a decade ago, which was I thought we already knew all this. I'm consistently surprised by how much stuff there is out in the open that people don't seem to know about, whether they weren't old enough when a lot of that stuff was happening or just haven't done any cursory reading or research about.

And so a lot of the allegations about Diddy, this is stuff that's been around for decades, to be honest with you. And now, did I ever think there would be a day where, like the movies, a federal raid in different locations? You know, no, I didn't think that. I guess my second thought when I was seeing all that and realizing what was happening was,

missed opportunity by Diddy to sit back and say, what took you so long? Which is my move, of course, if the feds ever come raid me, I'm famously said. Not the kind of thing that you want a cop to, like right off the bat, probably. No, you said, what took you so long? That's not an admission to anything.

It's just, eh, sort of. Doesn't hold up in court. Remember, I'm a lawyer now. Law Office of the Dermenal Assets. Yeah, you're right. Again, into the microphone, Greg. OK, sorry. But Dan, like.

Have it tilted up. Tilt it in front of your mouth. There should be microphone technology. Just put the microphone. there should be microphone technology Where when I lean back in my chair the microphone leans back with me my my my brother my dude My I I idolize you reading your articles like all the technology is there. It's a swivel Just swivel it up to your mouth. Okay, how about now can you hear me now?

You have made billy's job very difficult. Billy has had a tough day, just because there's a lot happening. And your inability to speak just directly in the microphone, which is broadcasting 101 made Billy spend the entire last segment trying to adjust your level. You still have it below your mouth like you're Tony Orlando.

Hey, everybody, back off of Greg Carty right now. Let my boy give his microphone. Thank you. Let his stakes come like they always come. My microphone could not be closer to I doing right now back off of Greg Cody right now? Let my boy give this great and let this takes come. Thank you always come my my microphone You could not be closer to my mouth right now It literally could be you tilt it the other way you're speaking over it. This is what you're doing. You're speaking over it I like into it. This better Yeah leaning into it and the mic too. Hello. This is good. Let's go. No, did he I?

Mean you were saying Then let me ask you Did any of these allegations come as a huge surprise? I wouldn't say surprise But I would say whenever it is that I see the flames climb to the top of power where money is whether it's this or Vince McMahon I'm always surprised that the flames can go and topple the power. Because look at what's happening presently with Donald Trump, who I'm not sure actually has money.

Like you, I don't know how some of these people sleep at night when they arrive at such power that their deviance is illegal and they think they can get away with it because of it's just partying or the extremes become so normal that you don't think the authorities are gonna come and criminalize your behavior because you think whatever you're accused of is okay because you've arrived at such mogul status that you could be what Chappelle is making fun of

20 years ago with I want Cambodian breast milk the purest kind because everyone knows and is whispering this about how on how strange did he is it's it's ok they think it's ok because it has been ok then it has been ok it was ok in our kelly's neighborhood and everyone protected the power of our kelly i just didn't think that uh... that we would climb up and have this uh... the consequences of this one watching o watching oj simpson again i'm watching

a black icon tumble in a way from people never recover from because whatever it is was being whispered about whether was domestic abuse with oj or this is actually all true and worse probably allegedly look at the crazy thing to me about that video is you're seeing real-time consequence hit that guy it's not that consequences happen, it's that we rarely get to see it. You see it real time.

That's not a guy pacing because like, did I leave the oven on? No, I think I turned it off. That's not what's happening there. That footage stunned me because it looked like exactly what it was. This guy's concerned that he's trying to make a choice between am I going to have some freedom

for the rest of my life, or am I going to choose to live away from everyone I've ever loved in another country like Bali, or someplace where they can't criminally prosecute me because I'm Russell Simmons. I think you've gone a step too far in the evolution of the thought. I think the thought right here is like,

what the hell is happening? I don't think he's yet a, okay, I gotta go, what am I doing? Is Justin and King Kongs are on there? No, no, no, he's not doing that. He's like, it, me? But he's at a private airport. I know, but that's, Dan, he's not rushing to the terminal. He's thinking like, damn, they got my son's locked up now. They were actually raiding my house. They're actually raiding my house? Is're actually arresting people. This is actually happening to me? Like, this is Alonzo at the end of training day.

Like, you want to do this to me? That's what he's doing right there in his head. I'll have you guys playing basketball on Pelican Bay. Shoe program, N-word. 23-hour lockdown. Up until that last line, I still thought we were doing greenie. Let's go ahead and do the March Sadness tournament.

Billy, I want to update everybody. Well Dan, it's time for the Greg Cody region with Greg Cody. Alright, he's here. Let's go. And so we're going to update everyone on wins and losses. Who's gone, who's staying? No, we're still by our first round. Alright.

Yeah. We still have some catching up to do here. By the way, March Sadness is presented by Get Your Guide. Discover over 100,000 unforgettable travel experiences in the US and around the world at GetYourGuide.com. Is this your favorite region? Is this your favorite? You personally? I don't play favorites. I'm just on the committee and I do what's fair and just. It's my favorite. It's my favorite.

Is it? Yeah. Who's gone? All right, so well, no one's gone yet, because they're still by the first round. But number six is represented by, now, let me give you a little bit of context here. Greg Cody was asked to do a back in my day.

Now, sometimes you guys give him a little guff. And this Greg Cody was refusing to do it back in my day. Oh, are we doing this now? No, I'll get cut off at this point. It's too late. It's too late in the segment. No, no, no, I'm not going there. We make concessions for the clock.

No, you're going to cut me off. No, I'm not. Yes, you are. No, I'm not. Yes, you are. No, I am not. I'm not doing all right. I don't do the cutting off. I'm gonna... you realize in a minute and twenty seconds I will be like halfway through it.

You'll cut me off. No I won't. And everybody will laugh and I will be genuinely pissed. No Greg we can move the clocks around so that we can finish this up. Yeah that's what you say now. And we'll go a shorter segment on the next one. Invaluable. That's what you say now and I don't believe you. I don't believe you. When have I ever lied to you you many times when it comes to a cheap laugh on this show no I'm not gonna I'm not gonna have back in my day interrupted twice I'm just not gonna do it that kind of thing and you know it We're just going to skip past That is weird world stuff I did not know that

Actually, no, it's Weird they were from Eisner to Eiger What a beautiful thing for me. Eisner! And there was a chapick era. Iger! Iger! Six o'clock! It's not my show. I mean, is this the Greg Cody show all of a sudden? I'm not the one with the mic in his hand. And you know it. Magnum condom. Yeah Gumball on by draft Kings, how is that a six seed? That was a day of seeing lots of I told you the seedings were terrible

How is that that was all of his catchphrases in one place? One it's an overall one seed. Yeah, it is. All right, so that was a sixth seed. It's going up against a number 11 seed, and this is the origin of gotta wanna learn, gotta wanna earn. Oh yeah. Detroit's good, but you gotta earn. You gotta be there.

How about the brands? That doesn't mean anything. Yeah, it does. What does that mean is analysis. You gotta earn, you gotta be there. Like you petered out. All right, look you peter. I I was listening I've been saying that my entire life. You gotta want to earn you gotta learn you gotta want to earn He's right I've been saying that you gotta want to learn gotta want to earn

Listen detroit made my ola. I'm not-I. I'm not disrespecting Detroit. I am disrespecting Cleveland. 11 seed is getting drunk. That's an 11 seed, yeah. In that bracket. All right, so then Dan, we move over to the 8 seed. This, for context, is Greg getting outraged one time when ESPN accidentally showed some boobs.

Whoa. Yeah, that's right. Unbelievable. It's crazy. By the way, am I still on the air? Did you hear about ESPN had to apologize for, you know, briefly showing a woman exposing her breasts on Bourbon Street after the bowl game? An official apology.

What century is this? How much of a puritanical society are we when a network has to apologize for a little accident? What kid, who's being harmed by this? What kids are up at that hour going, oh my god my life is ruined because I've seen what I just saw. You know what that's like? For a network having to apologize. That's like me not returning a shopping cart. I leave the shopping cart right in the parking lot, next to a car, and people give me such a dirty look.

It's such a, it's a misdemeanor. It's less than a misdemeanor. There are so many things to worry about in the world. You're gonna get on me for not returning a shopping cart. You're gonna get on a network for Accidentally showing a woman exposed. I mean come on It's ridiculous. It's less than a misdemeanor if you're gonna be mad at me If you're gonna put me in jail make it be for a felony, please that kind of thing I'm breaking out of this jail, I swear to you.

Where's the exit? Billy, I need a small favor as our executive producer for the day. This category is one of the best that we have ever done. We have not celebrated it enough. We've gotta get to all the games I've got a flight to catch. What? Your excuse, we'll just continue.

Here's the number nine seat, Greg. Update the whole thing. Yeah, Greg with one of his newer catchphrases. Dancing Swords, then? I'm Greg, bitch. Oh, God. Elton John? Make him look like a star.

All right, that was that. That's all we got? No, that was nine, no. Here's the number one seat. Greg, do you have any guesses as to what you think the number one seat would be? I don't, I really don't. Well, here's the number one seat,

and it came from our trip to Las Vegas this past couple months, whatever it was. Oh, wow. Okay. That hair is wild. Who does the seating? Who does the seating? Drink it up This one's for you

Alright, you get the point. That was a number one seat. That was a number one seat? Yeah, that was a number one seat. Those legacy things, you know what I mean? Like Greg liked it, so... I feel like you can give it a good seeding, you don't give it one over that other one. Two's a good seed, three's a good seed.

Well that's the good thing, is that this is all fan voting, so you can kind of easily vote this out against a number 16 seed. And this actually won the play-in, so you gotta preview this earlier. Here's a 16 seed, yeah. actually won the play-in, so you gotta preview this earlier, where here's the 16 seed, yeah. I slept in too late. Oh, I took the dog outside. Oh, God. Now I will be raised. Your laziness, I will chide.

A little heads up. My wife's trying to sing. Just look it up for yourself. Would have been nice. Why is technology your advice? It's cold enough for snow flurries So two songs going up against each other Then we head over Greg Greg you have any favorites so far of what you've heard or you don't really care about this

I like the one where when I where I was in jail. Yeah. Yeah, I sort of like that. Yeah, you and greenie That's right. Well Here's a number two seed that's gonna go up against the number 15 seed. Here's Greg kinda going through his wallet and revealing some things that he found. What do I got here? I got a Magnum condom.

Look at that hair. He won't get that out. That's shocking. Here's a picture of Christopher when he was like three years old. Right next to the condom. It's a reminder. A subtle reminder.

Yeah, never forget. That's the two-seat Greg's Magnum condom. This is going up against the number 15 seat. And this one needs context. So in another region we have, this is a club region, Stephen A went on a rant about Jason Whitlock where he was calling him all kinds of not nice names This Dan was supposed to see because he hasn't seen this. I don't think this is aired anywhere

This is a number 15 seed where Greg was parroting that and he was taking shots at Dan. Hmm I'm talking about that fat piece of shit to Dan. I'm talking about that fat piece of shit, Levitard. You all came here for one reason, and I'm about to deliver, because I'm talking about a fat piece of shit, Levitard. But I know why you all came, and it's why I'm here. I'm gonna talk about a piece of shit, Levitard.

I'm gonna talk about a fat piece of shit, Levitard. I'm going to talk about a fat piece of shit. Levitard. It's f***. I said it wrong again. F***. Who gave you that? And then how does it end? The Greg Cody Show podcast starts right now. Okay.

F***. But I know why you all are here. And it's why I'm here. I'm going to talk about a fat piece of shit. Levitard. The Greg Cody Show podcast starts now. You know it's sincere when it takes you seven takes to get in here, trust me.

That was beautiful. That's a 15 seed. I had never seen that before, that was great. Ass off. Christopher must have given me that. If you wanna vote, you can go on and vote for that. Here's a number five seed. This is uh... Oh the 512. This is a classic 512.

Oh god. Prime for upsets by the way, 512. This five I think is particularly strong. This is Greg getting mad at a video of Jonathan Zaslow. I can't trade Marino! Nice hat! Nice hat, Zaslow!'t trade Moreno nice hat nice hat Zaslow it's what he's most known for it's like I'm holding on to it do you remember what's got Mitchell looked like in that next game after Moreno got hurt

they were 9 and 2 they were 9 and 2 amazing and then they lost their last 5 and missed the playoffs they were 9 and 2 but it's Moreno and then the next time we saw Moreno after great hoodie trade him he threw for five touchdowns You can't trade merino nice head asshole How is this a five seed dog who's at least That five is going up against number 12 Greg and the turk off the bird is ready

up against number 12 Greg and the turk off. The bird is ready. Oh yes. Put the microphone close. What a great sound. Nice and slow Greg. I can't believe Billy's this close to this. That's the biggest upset here. The bird has dropped.

This Dan to paint a picture is styrofoam. It's foam here that's very flammable right next to this bird. Yeah, we don't worry about that. update us on where it is that we are sir How how close are you to done? We're about to have lift off. It's touching the turkey now guys lift off. Why are you using the mitt on the microphone? Your mitt is on the wrong hand Greg No, it isn't no it is you'll find out why it should be Dan Wow look at that raining right now is anyone helping find out why. It should be Dan. Yeah. Wow, look at that bird.

I'm draining right now. Is anyone helping you? Draining it. It's beautiful. Beautiful, brown and orange hue. Incredible, a festive bird. Where are you gonna put it? Are you gonna drop it?

Just gonna carry it? Just put it on the floor. Oh no, okay. I got a pen. Him alive. That is correct. There's a lot of oil stains on that backsplash, which is also a con. Dan needs to be blindfolded when tasting these so he doesn't have any bias whatsoever.

Taste that turk off. Kugler is quite the deadpan artist. The next word out of your mouth is the winner. You say one name and only one name. Seems easy. I'm going to have to give it to Roy. Oh, upset. Seems easy. I'm gonna have to give it to Roy. Oh! Oh! Upset.

Oh my god. You're shame, Greg. That's one hell of a game, 5-12? Oh my god. Alright, so now we have the 7-10 scene, and this is gonna kinda close out the Greg Cody bracket, and your fan voting will decide who moves on. This is Greg during our Dolphins and Bills watch along,

and he was up against the Deadline, and we decided it was a good time, the game was falling apart to go to Greg. Wake him up. He doesn't want to be bothered anymore now it's getting tense because he didn't need that as a result he needs something that happens. You can see him mother-effing. Are we bothering you right now? Turn on your microphone Greg. My microphone's on your microphone my microphones on When my microphone is on you To me, I mean don't tell me to turn my are you told me to leave my microphone on I did

So don't tell me turn your microphone on when it's on paint the scene the paint the scene is I gotta go to work Gonna drive home pissed he's gonna be pissed, he's gonna drive home pissed, he's gonna be mad at us for years. That seems like he's actually working right now. No, of course he's working, and he's rabidly angry at us. This tournament is a masterpiece. That's a seven, and it's going up against a 10, and this, Greg, I feel like you might think

that this is a very low seed. This is Greg performing Viva Greg Cody at the Circa in Las Vegas. Viva Greg Cody! Viva Greg Cody! Viva Greg Cody! Viva Greg Cody! Viva Greg Cody! Viva Greg Cody! Viva Greg Cody! Viva Greg Cody!

Viva Greg Cody! I just love imagining all the people who are like, you know, honey, let's go to the Circa. Let's go to the Circa. Let's go to the Circa for Super Bowl, should be fun. And they go, let's go, I heard the pool's heated. They go out to the pool. You see some dude singing Viva Greta Cote. Greta Cote himself.
