Why are you listening to this show?

The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan LeBattard podcast. I'm sorry, I'm not going to apologize for that. In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries that if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys? I've done it. And now here's the marching band to nowhere,

Fat Face and the Habitual Liar. Are you guys all ready? Is everyone ready for the new pilot of the new show that is sweeping the nation? There are not enough movie podcasts out there. David Sampson reviews a movie every day on Nothing Personal, Cinephile with Adnan Virk. He also has a movie podcast and Cinephobe with Amin.

So Juju, are you ready to get into the space with David Sampson? Is there been any planning here that would allow me to toss it as the host of this situation into a game show? We we have some imaging we have a background that I think can be placed up or maybe it's just on TV I don't know and then we have some music you want to hear the music all right It is the I know do I want it do I want to hear some music? Ladies and gentlemen boys and girls children of all ages

Welcome to the best podcast in the entire freaking world and introducing the man himself, David Sampson, the B in the middle. Welcome to A Few Jews Cutting It Up, episode number one. Yes, that's Jew as in J-U, Jew, Jew, Gotti. I'm David Sampson, the J-E-W part of The Two Jews. We'll be with you once a week,

depending on the financing from Metal Arch Media, and we will be reviewing movies, talking movies that you've seen, that you care about, not the ones that I saw in my childhood, the ones that the one Jew you're looking at has seen currently. And we're here to start talking about poor things. What's wrong, Dan? Cut.

Four, eight, sixty nine. I'm just a little scared. I'm scared. But let's go. Let's let's review it. And you're going like this. Your head is in your hands. We can't worry about the haters right now, David. Right now, what's important is Emma Stone.

Oh my goodness gracious, she deserved that Oscar. I was one of the guys who was like, hey, you know what I mean, old girl from the Scorsese movie. Lily Gladstone. Lily Gladstone. See, this is why we were a great team, Lily Gladstone. I was thinking that Lily Gladstone might should have got it.

But then I took my ass to the Hulu, salute the Hulu and watched Poor Things and Ma'am and Sirs, she did her thing in that film. And it was beautifully shot. Oh my God, sets amazing, David. Were you shocked at the amount of nudity in that movie? Oh, yes I was, but pleased. Now, it's not allegedly. There was actually that level, Emma Stone as an Oscar award winner doing a movie that

some criticized her as being way too sexual, and especially that scene with Mark Ruffalo. That was scary, except it made me feel good because he looks like I do. Scary? The Hulk. I mean, he did a great job in that film. He's so believable as an asshole. Oh my God. I believe it. I think he is one in real life.

I think that it was beautifully written, beautifully shot. I think that deserved all the flowers it got at the Academy Awards. Now we're going to get somewhere because Mark Ruffalo obviously has very significant political opinions that we don't necessarily need to discuss here. I didn't talk to anybody. I don't know anything. I didn't talk to anyone, Dave. Juju, one of the things that we're gonna do

for our audience is we're gonna give them our opinions of the movies and of the people who make them. And we're gonna make sure we don't focus only on Martin Scorsese, the way Adnan does. We're gonna talk about the way people make them, and we're gonna make sure we don't focus only on Martin Scorsese, the way Adnan does. We're gonna talk about the way people make movies, how movies get made, the money, and then the product. So we have poor things that we started with, and for our audience, we're gonna watch movies every day

and come to you with a different review so that you know what to watch, because if one Jew likes it and the other Jew likes it, that means no matter what, you're gonna like it. And you're gonna talk about the business of movies on this podcast. I feel like you've already lost Lucy. Lucy's already despondent.

She's come to work in a way that's not feeling good. She's hurting it. You're not making her any happier. I have no proof she's even listening to you guys anymore. I've been doodling. You're doodling, okay. She's doodling. It's making her any happier. I have no proof she's even listening to you guys anymore. I've been doodling. You're doodling, okay. She's doodling. It's making me feel better.

Look Dan, you keep focusing on the haters right now. We are, look, screw Adnan Burke and Senna Fowl. We are here to stay baby. So yes sir, David, back to you. Juju, we're not gonna have any hate on this podcast because you get enough of it with Dan's show. Zagack. And you get enough of people ignoring and having the wrong view

of both your Jew and my Jew, forget it. We're about love. We're about people who actually care about what they're talking about. No hate. If people want to doodle, turn the channel. We're gonna build a big enough audience that we'll be okay. David, I'm going through something right now.

Cut me some slack. Lucy, what is the statute of limitations when your team loses? How long can you stay angry and upset? I'm giving myself two weeks. I gave myself one year. I gave myself one week last year and now this back to back national championship games.

I get two weeks. So please don't be mean to me right now. It's illegal. David, I'm producing this thing on the fly. You have to rate movies doing it this way. Five stars of David, OK? Five stars of David is so good. It smells good.

It smells good. Just give him an executive producer. If you give him an EP cut, he will absolutely help this. This project needs the power, strength, and voice of a Stu Gotts to make the business profitable, right? You need his help, let's go. And the best thing, Stu, is that you can do this from anywhere in the country.

Doesn't matter. Don't open that door, trust me. Don't open that door, David. I'm running through it. Stu, all you need is a wifi connection. Give us one hour of your time a week and we will do this cutting it up with two Jews rating movies with stars of shit.

I would be very careful, Stu Gotz, of getting into business with this man because he's on tour right now and he knows how to. If you think you not writing a book that you're publishing is gonna make money, give this man an opening to some of these opportunities. If you hosted this particular show, there's a business opportunity here for you.

Is there a paycheck though? Yeah, well you gotta be careful negotiating with Samson. Stu, I'm gonna give you the terms of the deal right now. All right. I'm going to give you both a piece of the show and a weekly fee to guarantee that you show up. How much, though? I mean, we're going to give. I will give you whatever. I'm actually I can tell you exactly my price.

Wow. Given this note, given the sponsors, I'll give you a two K an hour plus five percent of the ownership of the show. Wait, hold up a second. I think I can do this. I'd like to be part of this show. I can do this. I love this. I'm in on the 2K an hour.

Wait, Lucy. Hold on, sharks. Yeah. No, no, no. Samson, Samson, you will be able- 5% Stugats is low. Samson, if you want to, you can have your choice of the group, actually,

if you want Stugats to do it, but I'm sure the others, now that you've named your price, I'm sure all the others. I'll take the deal, David. That you'd want would take the deal as well. I'll do 1,500 an hour, and I am also Jewish, so. We've got, no, it's two Jews, not three. The name of the show is, just like the Gihar three.

But all Jews are welcome. Yeah, all Jews are welcome. We can't be excluding the Jews. I mean, come on, David. All Jews are welcome. Yeah, all Jews are welcome. We can't be excluding the Jews. I mean, come on, David. All Jews are welcome to listen and sponsor, but the microphone, we don't hand out microphones the way Levitard does. We are very careful with our microphones.

We've got Stu, Juju, and David. Those are the microphones. That's it. So we've got a deal. It's closed. So we've got a deal. The deal has been struck. Two grand for every week that you do it. Plus, you know what you have to do it.

You understand what Sampson's doing? This tour he's doing has nothing to do with Metal Lark. Sampson is a hustler. Sampson is put on a tour. I get it. Are you in Boston? He's gone rogue. You're in Boston tonight because someone else is paying for the tour because he can get these people to pay for it.

These are the things you have to do and Bimal doesn't return a call just go on your own now now imagine the 3 of you touring the country reviewing movies. And I've got a better one for us to you and I are happy to do it in Chicago or happy to do it according to the Northwestern schedule love it we are very flexible about where we will We're happy to do it in Chicago. We're happy to do it according to the Northwestern schedule. Love it. We are very flexible about where we will record the show,

but I need your complete attention and buy-in to this hour of content that we'll do per week. You got it. Just so I'm clear, 2,000 an hour, correct? And I'm getting 80% of the show. You're getting five. Juju is getting 15. Is that the deal?

That's almost the deal, but not exactly. And I will give this to you in writing so you can show it to your agents and lawyers. And I will demand a response quickly. I trust you. No, you can't. I'm the only one. And that was two Jews cutting it up with David Sampson, the preview. We're going to just show a little thought.

We can't give you the whole thing right now, but next time, we're gonna have it all the way together, Daddy. Salute to everybody. I am fine with making that an hour that exists on the show next week because you guys have figured out how to do this correctly. No, they've figured out an hour not doing it on the show so they can monetize it.

Yeah, it's gonna be their own podcast. You've lost this leverage. It's not yours anymore. Sampson will sell it back to the company because he can get it sponsored. Samson will just go out there and get it sponsored the way that he got his tour sponsored that's in Boston tonight.

Where do people get more information, David? You can go to citywinery.com. You can buy tickets. We're gonna be in New York on the 29th. We still have Nashville and Pittsburgh to go. Tonight I'm focused on Boston and each show is pretty specific to the city in which I'm in. So I'm going to be

talking about the Red Sox today. I'm going to be talking about the Bruins, the Patriots. We're going to talk about Dynasty, the documentary. And then we do do topics of the day outside of the city. It's a pretty good show in that we also have the Boston Marathon race director as a guest tonight. And the Boston Marathon is coming up this Monday Patriots Day. So people are enjoying it. They're loving the episodes when they're released. They're loyal. We're building. It's like the training wheels tour. We're starting something and you have to start somewhere Dan. You can't just talk about doing things. You

actually have to do them. Can you give me a business explanation for what it means that last dive bar has filed for trademark of the Las Vegas A's? This is a big story. In baseball, when you're going to move, like when we went from Florida Marlins to Miami Marlins, there's an entire legal process you go through before making the announcement. And it turns out that the A's never secured the name Las Vegas Athletics. And so the last dive bar said we're going to apply to the trademark office. It's a federal application process and they're trying to get control of Las Vegas Athletics.

But then it was announced that Major League Baseball actually filed in Mauritius, and which is absurd, but as part of the Paris Convention, it could count toward a US filing. There's gonna be an amazing fight and it's gonna take quite a while to solve itself. And the last dive bar is this organization that was started in order to bring attention

to the Oakland A's ownership and the nightmare that it is. And they're pretty good at what they do, drawing attention to it. Though of course the A's are pretty good at drawing attention to themselves. And it just looks like another misstep by baseball and by John Fisher, the owner of the Oakland A's. It's just downright embarrassing.

Way more so than Marlins Park not being full. Way more so than any other team right now. It's one of the biggest issues facing baseball. Nothing personal is the name of his podcast. He is very aggressively climbing up the sports media ladder. I don't have time to talk to you about the Rich Eisen experience.

Thank you, David. We will talk to you again soon. And again, if you want tour information, David Sampson, improbably, impossibly, David Sampson is on tour and that information is on your screen.

He was not the fun substitute teacher who'd wheel out a TV and play a VHS tape or Armageddon in science class. He was the weird one who would eat an egg salad sandwich while clipping his toenails into the trash can and ranting about Ronald Reagan. Stugats! The guy kept talking about how his ass was smooth.

Smoother than a newborn's cheek. He wouldn't stop bragging about his bare buttocks to me. This is the Don LeBathard Show with the Stugats! We have talked a lot, Stugatz, in the growth of social media, of how good basketball has been in the modern age of knowing how to connect the humanity of its stars to the audience to dominate social media, which isn't the real world and isn't other media in the mainstream, so that basketball stars and stories and soap operas are something that even if the regular season is uninteresting you will captivate us in the postseason because we're all wondering hey Jason Tatum is

it now that you take that last leap with the best team that you've ever had having the best regular season it's ever had in a weekend conference and we're all looking at the Eastern Conference the same way don't trust cleveland all the next are interesting look out for the sixers and what's wrong with the box and last night the box after playing really poorly for the last two weeks in a way that would make no one trust the box even though in the eastern conference there's only one team that can say what i'm about to say yeah boston your two best stars we've got to work better there's only one team that can say it philadelphia can't say miami can't say

it no one else can say that's only milwaukee your two stars are two stars hours are better and milwaukee last night swamps a boston team and then yannis gets hurt and yannis getting hurt is how fragile everything at the top of this conference for the last five years has been between milwaukee and boston and miami and who's going to take this conference now i don't think anybody is better than boston this year but i would trust

denver more in a series against boston not just because i've seen them do it but because that giant in the middle uh... is somebody who changes every basketball game that he's in and soon in a couple of years when the novel will ruin this all because i've heard that giant say that guy blocked my shot four times i told him after the first one you're not going to do that again and they just kept doing it and that

when the job is going to grow but the the legacy of the lead in the story lines to got your all right here in real time all time greats are fighting for shit joellen beads trying to get back into this race everyone fears and if he gets back into this because physically there's no stopping that there's no stopping that. There's no stopping Giannis except for what happens last night lower body extremity that is something you don't want that team that whole thing has been built on a flimsy foundation all year

Don Tuck Rivers has been making excuses all year and that's the one thing you can't have happen because even if Lillard goes down that guy in the playoffs is something that could drag your whole team into the Eastern Conference Finals. The interesting part with the East is, depending on how the play-in games work out, you have fascinating first round matchups for the first and second seed in your conference.

Because Boston is either gonna be tasked, if things remain the way that they seemingly will, with either Miami or Philadelphia. And those are teams that you don't necessarily want to go up against in the playoffs. Obviously Miami has their flaws which we documented. Boston would love Orlando. They would love the Knicks. They love the Bulls. They love the Pacers. They love the Hawks. They love anybody but Philadelphia and Miami. But I don't think they should fear anybody.

No, they shouldn't fear anybody. but you'd much rather play another team than those matchup nightmares in the first round. And then you look at it, after that, two through six is separated by three games, three through six is separated by just a couple of games. All of these teams can change position in the final few games of the year. So it's so interesting to see the way that shakes out

and which teams are gonna get what path through that postseason. There's so many interesting things about the NBA right now. And Dan is right. You have legends of the games and they're just fighting, fighting to get into the postseason, fighting to be one of the eight seeds. When you talk about Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Steph Curry, guys like that. And then you have Jimmy Butler in the East. you have Joel Embiid in the East. But now because of what happened last night in Milwaukee with Giannis, you want that seven seed in the East, don't you? You don't want the Celtics, of course. You would much prefer getting the Milwaukee Bucks now. Yeah, I think that the Philadelphia 76ers are scarier than anybody is letting on or

paying attention to right now. A healthy Joel Embiid with a healthy Tyrex Maxey, they haven't had that in a while. And now that they're putting it together, Tyrex had 52 the other day without Joel. And Joel put up big numbers last night. It's like, I think that that team needs to be more feared as a whole because like you said, with Greek Freak going out last night,

it really makes the East a little more wider, you feel me? And I don't think that, you saying like the changing of the guards, you think is here right now. I think Steph Curry and Draymond Green and Klay Thompson have that Patrick, sorry, excuse me, so sorry. All right, you know what, Juju, $10, because you got $5 from earlier.

$10, wow. You never paid the $5. I got you right now. You're still carrying cash? Yeah, absolutely, you got to the $5. You still carrying cash? Yeah, absolutely, you got to know. You feel me? You feel me, but I think that how Steph Curry is playing right now, I think that the same way

we just all last year, Lamar, oh my goodness, Josh Allen, oh the off season's gonna be so crazy on the Ravens now. We did not pay attention to Patrick Mahomes and the greatness of the Kansas City Chiefs and they proved themselves once again. I think that Steph Curry got that in them still. The problem is if they end up getting the eighth seed and have to play against Denver, it feels like it's going to come to an end very quickly because they don't have anybody that can guard your pitch. Okay, let me do this, Dugats, rarely you rarely get the opportunity that we presently have where the people listening to this have all the back

story on what i'm about to say the golden state warriors change the way the entire sport has been played they have left the sport different than they found it that's the legacy of this dynasty and this is the last embers of it last night they go into los angeles and swamp lebron's lakers that don't have anthony davis course the conversation i just had about do you have the best two guys philadelphia can summon an argument for now our second guy we like him more than jaylen brown and in beads better

than your first guy when i'm looking at what's happening in this league and i'm telling juju gaudi and others ameen and everyone else and history goes against me here's to god's when i say this these young teams when i'm watching minnesota whether you think okay see is knuckleheads or not i'm seeing a difference in youth and athleticism that lebron oldest player in the league

still looks like so many of the lebron things but he's not as fast as the never has been as fast as that seat as someone like max where you like holy shit gilded alexander can go anywhere he wants and no one's gonna be able to do anything about it as to be the closest thing that i can see spider webbing into a different sport then you what you'll get just doing where shaggy ldous alexander changing everything and then he's got one of

those guys shed home but it may or may not grow into the second best guy and you're watching it right now the young people are coming for the old people the timber wolves are on the clippers court saying yelling at him by but when in by eighteen you guys are old as shit you kawaii lennar i see you dragging that anchor on your ankle like you have been for ten years You used to be us when you were with the Spurs you used to but now the young people want the league and Now here when we've watched this parts to guys the Warriors changed it for everybody

I remember watching and being like wait a minute. What do you mean on a three-on-one break? They're going to the corners They're not going for the layup they want three points not to they're going to change how all of this is done that team wins multiple championships and we are watching all-time greats as lebron tries to grab colby's legacy we've been watching this for fifteen years and now the playoffs arrive and nobody believes that the young knuckleheads could take out the experience of the old guys when the old guys still look old to me.

It doesn't look, Stugats, like wisdom and experience to me. To me it looks old when I watch the young guys. And then there's Denver out there, boring as hell, but will beat everyone over the head with a seven foot club. Are they old guys, Denver? No. Okay. No, they're young.

Nah, they're in the middle. All right. All right. I think that just last year, two years ago, the Memphis Grizzlies were so cute. Whoop, that trick. Whoop, they had, it was so cute. The young guys was taking over and the Warriors tapped that ass. You feel me?

So it's like, it sound good, big bro, but show me in the playoffs. All this is cute in the regular season, but I still watch the immaturity of some of these teams. Shay Gilder, Zazer Alexander, J I still watch the immaturity of some of these teams. Shay Gilder, Zazer Alexander, Jalen Williams at the end of certain games, brother, they still have immature moments. So show me in the playoffs. But this is to me, Stugatz, the reason this is so exciting is because it's a team that revolutionized the sport and spit-belched outvin durant out the side because dream on

spurnes is running now steph curry is crying into his jersey because the train one thing is out of control and will either ride that furnace to the finals were a kick a dude in the nuts and get ejected no score thirty two in the game seven we're going to ride that until it burns out and to get a burn our eyes and the whole thing is going to stay in and what can you take it from us because what i've told you is the single best thing

that i have seen better than mahal better than anything watching the aesthetic experience of what is great about sports excellence over the last fifteen years the most beautiful thing i have seen anywhere in sports is late in a game when the seventy two win warriors are changing the sport they're down 12 and the leaders backpedaling because he's terrified of what's

coming this way a desperate champion protecting what it's earned holy shit am I'm scared of that but we will either watch it flame out this year, likely, because it runs into too many young pieces and then there's Jokic and what the hell are you gonna do? Well, I was gonna say the numbers of it, Dan. The teams that are already in the playoffs who have a good chance of advancing to the NBA Finals are mostly the young teams. The older guys are just fighting to get into the playoffs.

But I'm with Juju on this. I think if Golden State plays Minnesota first round, that is a terrible, I could see Golden State plays Minnesota first round, that is a terrible, I could see Golden State beating them in five games. I get it. I don't know what that's to. I mean. Now Carl Anthony Towns is clear for five on five.

He's gonna probably make his way back at some point close to the playoffs. Like that's a dangerous team. Anthony Edwards is the truth. He's that next guy we look at. Oh, Shay Gillis Alexander. We look at the Nuggets. We look at the Celtics.

It's like, wait, have you guys seen Anthony Edwards play? I know it's on the West coast. I know it at the the Celtics. It's like wait. Have you guys seen Anthony Edwards play? I know it's on the West Coast. I know it's in Minnesota I know far away This is why I think the league is about to be taken from the old guys this year Like it's this is the year Yoke. It's just kind of a bridge as young as the old. I don't I can't tell Look man, OKC has a chance to be here for a really long time.

The most fascinating part is there's actually three generations right now, right? Because we're talking about the old guys. We're talking about LeBron and Steph and KD. Then you're talking about those next level, which is Janis and Embiid and Jokic, who are all of one age before that young group. And they, right now, they have a chance to solidify their legacy.

So Embiid who's 30 needs to get through the East now when you have it up in the air like that. That's why he comes back and plays this year. Janis wants to get another championship. This Boston Celtics team, if they flame out and don't get to the finals, you could see that core change. So in the West, we have the play-in game to thank for all of this. Because in the Western Conference, you're going to have essentially game seven matchups between LeBron and Steph, between KD and Steph, between KD and LeBron potentially, because all of those teams are sitting

there at seven and eight. It is a fascinating time in the NBA. And I think that with the Boston Celtics being involved in one of those teams their late-game Immaturity the late game one-on-one between the way between layers fade away jump shot That's gonna come back to bite you at some point brothers Think about the talent we're talking about where I'm talking about the young people and Lucas middle-aged Don libertar photography is not as hard as it's made out to be and now with computers I mean you can make anything look like anything. It's almost cheating. It's not fair. If you push a button it takes a thousand pictures you're gonna find a good one in the batch.

There were a lot of photographers there taking a thousands of pictures. One got that photograph. Okay, good retort. Stugatz. Haven't you ever passed by photographers? I guarantee you when that shot was taken, we didn't just hear ch ch. That's not what you heard. If you were by that camera, in my ear with that, he does a good camera. This is the Don LeBattar Show with the Stugats. with these two guys. Billy, can you get me the Stat of the Day music please? I wanted the long version, but you told me it's too long. And I really did want the long version, but Billy says we start of the day, and this is the start of the day.

Start of the day, start of the day, and this is the start of the day. Start of the day, start of the day, and this is the start of the day. I saw this stats to God and I had to go and look it up because I didn't believe it. I'm going to shop this room. I believe unless Billy or Jeremy have already heard this stat because I believe it landed in Marlins land the same way that it did for Everybody are you guys aware of who the home run leader is for the Marlins since the year? 2017 what Marlin as baseball has used this this

raked town for profit as a brothel to get money. Since 2017, one Marlin has hit more home runs total. It's 2024 in the last seven years. Do you wanna guess who that is? I think from the look on Jeremy and Billy's face, they already heard this stat, so it's less shocking to them. Jean-Carlo Stanton. No way.

I was gonna say Vidal Brujman. I was gonna guess that. I was gonna say Berger. I was gonna say Mike Stanton. Yeah. Not Brian Anderson, who comes in second, I think. That's the worst part. It's a shitty stat.

That's eight years of shit baseball. Jazz is about to catch up. Two playoff appearances. Well, Stanton leads with 59, and those were all in 2007. Yeah that's right. One season. They traded him at the end of the one season

where he hit the 59 and no one's been able to pass him since. That's why it's such a punch in the gut. I couldn't remember if they traded him in 16 or 17 so I felt like I wanted to say Mike, when did he change his name to John Carlin? In fairness, there was the COVID year. Not enough is made of the question that Tony is asking. When did he change his name from Mike to Giancarlo?

Because it's an asshole move. Was that, it was like 16, 17? No. I'm looking at that. No, no, no, that was, I wanna say that was like 2011. 12. 2012. Did he change, he changed with the uniforms?

2012. After a trip down 2011 12 offseason he made it known before the 2012 season that he preferred to be called John Carlo And it's like if I were to do that right now if I if I demanded right now that this will become the John Carlo Lebatard show because it's his actual name. He was going by like his middle name I think don Carlo little Mike Ryan Ruiz action happening Stugat still has yet more players who can note prayer from earlier in the show. Lucy, you've checked out again. What's going on with you?

I don't know what to do with- You know what's going on with me, Dan. Take me a little more through because I have not seen the video that you produced from Iowa. You were there immersed in what was a symbolically giant sports moment that I'm going to say has never come to Iowa. Can I say that when I say Caitlin Clark is the most famous American basketball player that there is of any gender that Caitlin Clark there is no more famous American basketball player that there is of any gender that Caitlin Clark there is no more famous American basketball player right now can I say that you just experienced the height of Iowa mattering its sports in

your lifetime oh yeah absolutely I think that's why I'm so sad because that was kind of the last shot now I do think that Iowa women's basketball will be good again I think it's really awesome. You've already sort of seen Iowa's recruited better, you know, the last four years because of Caitlin. But we'll never have, you know, that level again because you're not going to get a player like that ever again. She's generational.

Like it's sad, but like I'm grateful. But mainly I'm just sad right now. But you got it. Yeah. But that was, I will probably never see Iowa win a national championship in a major sport in my lifetime. Just based off the way the college athletics are trending, just based off the, Iowa is a smaller school,

it's the second smallest school in the Big Ten, I don't know if that is still the same with the new schools joining, but this was sort of like the last opportunity for Iowa, and they will be good again. They have the number one rated player in California coming for Iowa, and they will be good again. They have the number one rated player in California coming to Iowa, like they will be good, but what Caitlin was was once in a lifetime.

And so I appreciate that. I will be grateful for this run. This will be my favorite team forever and ever and ever and ever and ever. But also at the same time, I really wanted to see them win a national championship, especially because I hate the stupid conversation going on around Caitlin that she can't be one of the greats because she didn't win a national

championship as a dumb argument she went to a national championship with less than any other you know squad they're like that's just dumb lucy roadie iowa correspondent tony mentions this god's uh... yeah i would despondent uh... tony mentioned earlier sort of how quaint it is to see the purity and innocence of sports emotion where you just love this thing and you care so much that it makes you weep and breaks you for days. One of the things, and I have found a number of things

fascinating about the seismic shift of the last couple of months where i'm sitting in front of you saying what i think is a fairly impossible thing which is the women had more four million more viewers then the men and i'm assuming i don't know whether i have this right or not but i'm assuming there's probably more gambling money on the men i may have this wrong but i feel like gambling information would feel like it's stronger over there and that the betting interest would

the not the knowledge would feel better maybe i have that part wrong but not in my house kate how kate martin thirty-half points salute yet at uconn felt easy it started to feel easy i think a lot of money went on right i don't know what right now i've got to admit ignorance okay i'm assuming that more people bet on the man and so i'm assuming more people are watching a men's basketball game and gambling on it then up there woman's basketball game i may have that totally wrong but still four million more people were watching the women and what lucy is articulating

there which i do believe is lost in the way that we've covered men's sports is which is talking about once a lifetime people once a lifetime person came to my sports city i feel like a much about nine of those in the nba right now joe l m b fragile what's the matter with you i haven't you want a championship hate a dumb so that says you're as good as direct why haven't you won a championship is timing a twenty five and you've been up for

eastern conference finals you're still young but the way that we do it with this searing needle we've been chasing around LeBron you're not good enough Steph's better than you and so we have not enjoyed because we've been too busy chasing these ones. Yoakett you're boring. Well you can't have nine once-in-a-lifetime talents unless you're a cat. And Caitlin Clark I mean dare I say she's a bigger phenomenon and all those brothers you mentioned like she's a once-in-a-lifetime talents unless you're a cat. And Caitlin Clark, I mean, dare I say, she's a bigger phenomenon than all those brothers you mentioned, like, she's a once-in-a-lifetime, like, her talent, like, that's never gonna be

another Caitlin Clark, in my opinion. I love Juju Watkins, what she brings to the game, but she's a different type of killer, like, you feel me? So, Caitlin being in that city, in that state, I think that's, you just gotta be happy it happened, and what's that whatever the saying is, be happy it happened and not sad it's gone. In one year, Katelyn took down Kim Mulkey, Dawn Staley,

and Gina Oriyama. She's a generational talent. We won't see something like her again, and thank God we get to continue to watch her in the W, but her range, the way she's able to move the ball, she's generational, and that's so cool to see people kind of attach themselves to that and finally give women's basketball a chance and Kailin opened the door and she deserves all the credit for that.

I think she'll go down as one of the most influential basketball players of all time. And I think it's definitely going to transfer to the W because I think all of this hating and all this rivalry between her and Tarasi and Stewie, that's going to be lovely to watch and so much attention is going to be on the W because I think all of this hating and all these rivalry between her and Tarasi and Stewie That's gonna be lovely to watch and so much attention is gonna be on a W I promise to God I shed tears watching all the coverage that the W and all the the the women's college basketball is getting because I've been a supporter for so many Years and it's always just been laughed at by my homies or whatever now We are all watching it and I'm so proud to say

I live in this generation. Juju, how many of those four million extra that the women got do you think were spending time in that space? Because I believe there were a lot of people who were just coming over for the bustle of it. What's everyone making such a big deal about? But I would imagine, as I was watching it,

I don't know how much I can say about what I'm about to say here, but one of the documentaries Metal Arc is making right now, the start of all of this with... Usually if you don't know if you can say it, you err on the side of caution and... Right, I'm not gonna do that. I'm not gonna do that.

We've got documents, people will see that we're all bad people. People will see that we'll have documentaries out here shortly, but... Is at the center of sort of like ground zero where some of this started where if you're a woman and know some of the history of sports in this country what we just witnessed seems impossible like this country is going backwards in arizona where it's just okay nevermind don't care about the woman's body not in

charge of it the state is to see this in sports right this is so we're just in the midst of that we talked about this during the bubble you thought the men were leading it was not the men who were leading on social justice it was the women obviously with the fewer means that were leading at the start of two thousand to see what has risen in this

country in this sport in this america around this the strength of it you guys tell me right now you said it's a generational talent it will feel like that emotionally for a long time she's at the start of changing all of this there will be more for the freshmen are coming like the sport is now getting competitive and has opportunity and juju watkins can exist and maybe she won't be the best ever but they're they're going to keep getting getting better now that we will invest

in all of it and the strength of it seeing it come to sports with a different attitudes to god's then yet billy says that they can't be generational talents if there are nine of them now i'm watching nine generational talents in the NBA that we've been chasing around. I'm watching that in the NBA because we're super critical about how we cover all this shit. Iowa, South Carolina was the most gambled on

women's basketball game of all time. Now there was $2.72 billion bet on the NCAA tournaments overall, men's and women's. I don't have the breakdown yet but i do know that's the most gambled on women's basketball game of all time i think i have it wrong in what i'm theorizing because i don't have any information on this i'd just assume that when it comes to the men if there is more information they're going to be more gamblers there and also more casual gamblers on the men like if there are a lot of people just getting to women's basketball without

betting, that's not going to be the first game that they bet. Well, do you, I don't really feel like there has been more information for the men this year, like turn on sports center the, all the content and the coverage you're seeing is all of the women's game. I don't know how many of us in here could name five college men basketball players right now, but I bet all of us could name five women's

college basketball players right now. So I don't necessarily think it's like a lack of information. I think people have tuned in. There were 14 million people that watched Iowa UConn. It probably felt a little more confident betting Iowa, South Carolina. But Lucy, he's not talking coverage, he's talking strictly gambling,

and I do believe most people felt more comfortable just betting on UConn because it seemed easy and they're more familiar with it. They had more they had more props set up for the men's side like it's where it's like second half bets and all of that. They had more for

the men set up. We can call. We've got if only we had a sponsor that had some expertise in this area that could get us an answer instead of me gasbagging for six minutes knowing nothing and then the rest of us gasbagging knowing even less. So proud of you.
