Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to DraftKings Network. Tim's Onlet Vites are back. Enjoy a fluffy, delicious addition to your morning routine in two flavors, bacon and cheese, and spinach and egg white after participating in Tim Horton's restaurants. Welcome to the Big Sui! Presented by DraftKings.
Starting point is 00:00:30 Why are you listening to this show? The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan LeBatard podcast. I'm sorry, I'm not gonna 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
Starting point is 00:00:49 And now here's the marching man to nowhere that face and the habitual liar. He just spent the break yelling at me again He's just like why don't you just say stick it where the bleach don't shine you idiot like Like how can you not get one of these endings right? Pam rocks fly a bleached asshole Just mixing them all that's right. I mean what do you start? We start Roy has told me during the break go your bleach Always subtle to Stugot.
Starting point is 00:01:27 Sorry. Always gotta take it a step further. Could have just left it where it was. It was fine, I was ashamed enough. You had to bring your special brand of making me feel more ashamed. Cause you can't do subtle. Put it on the pole, please, Juju.
Starting point is 00:01:43 Is subtle a tool in the Stugot's toolbox? No. Roy, you have told me during the break that this perenium tanning or sunning has six other alleged benefits. Is one of the benefits that that area of your body needs vitamin D? Yes, that would be the first one. The other six include improved mood and mental health. Come on. So Katie and rhythm regulation. So it helps you sleep apparently natural skin health Enhanced libido and sexual health balance hormones and naked grounding balances your nervous system I need all of that. I'm gonna have to do this. All right then, but I don't believe I don't believe that I can get it that easily these things that need, these nutrients that I need to sleep better to have less stress.
Starting point is 00:02:26 Think about what we're saying. You're alleging that the key to mental health is throw your ass up in the air and let it sun. But I would think that then there's also like, not to get too into it, but if you get a sunburn, then it probably has the opposite effect. Well, that's one of the risks. How about this, Billy?
Starting point is 00:02:44 You will find this not surprising at all. Thank you, Lewis, for the opposite effect. Well, that's one of the risks. How about this, Billy, you will find this, not surprising at all. Thank you, Lewis, for the first time. You know what? Hold on a second. Metal Arc Media needs to celebrate something here. The internet's forever. Don't do, no.
Starting point is 00:02:55 All right, stand in ovation for Lewis. Okay, here we go. For Lewis, I don't know. Whether this has been going lately, once he stood up, I'm like, Jesus. I'm a little concerned that he has direct contact to you. Well, and I hear him and I told him to stop that. Well, no, but here, both of us, by the way.
Starting point is 00:03:11 Hold on, you guys don't understand what I'm celebrating and I wish for all of us to celebrate. Standing up here, here we go. All right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, thank you, good job, good job, good job. What are we clapping for? What are we clapping about? What are we clapping about now?
Starting point is 00:03:24 We have been paying video for a long time. I believe we've just reached a seminal moment where video can be helpful. Billy, I'm going to tell you how and why because there's a bit of information I'm about to give you. Don't show a video someone bleaching their butt. No, I'm going to do that at some point in the show back here. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:03:40 Bleach your butt. Anything for clicks. Billy, Lewis just said to me, Tony has done that. Perinium tanning. Tony has done that. It is the first bit of valuable help that I have gotten in my ear from video
Starting point is 00:03:57 in two and a half years doing this. As I've gone straight to hell crazy in front of everyone's ears. And my mental health is decomposed in front of you as I'm trying to get video up to speed on what we're doing cause we need to grow as a video company. That historically is the first bit of information that has ever arrived in these ears from video that has been helpful to me doing the show. And not defense against me doing the show and not defense against me doing the show.
Starting point is 00:04:28 Now, follow me. You get Tony to edit a podcast. Oh no, man, unnecessary. A little inside about your bitterness and your resentment because those two and a half years inside my mental health has also been affected by yes, Tony, so that Billy doesn't hate you even more than he ever did. Hate is strong. Edit a podcast. Yes. Pay some dues on editing a podcast. You can watch Tony do nothing for 15 hours tonight, starting at five o'clock, by the way, on the show's YouTube.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Tony, get in here. Is he here? Is he just outside? He's not here. He's not here. So the comment wasn't as helpful as you thought because now we can't do anything with it No, no, let's call him get him Lewis. No, I'm you think I'm gonna let this go Billy you and him hope so like a dog You and him being able to make magic together because you don't actually like him and he doesn't actually help you enough And he's doing it 24 hour. I get the YouTube feed tonight because why not? I'm Tony baby. Why shouldn't I get the feed tonight and just have everybody watch me sleep.
Starting point is 00:05:31 I'm sexy. YouTube.com slash at LeBatard show. Tony on the air for the entirety of the night beginning at five o'clock Eastern underscore circa dash lost dash Vegas. Although that does allow me, afford me the opportunity. I know that the initial link was not only confusing, but there was also a link to purchase GA tickets for the stadium swim experience over there.
Starting point is 00:05:57 All you have to do if you're a fan of our show is RSVP. You get free entry into Las Vegas. Now some of you listening to this or watching this right now may have already paid $25. You should be getting refunded from the venue itself. If not, reach out to the venue and they will be very helpful in ushering that along. We will be at Sadium Swim, at Circa Hotel, February 8th and 9th. Reserve your tickets right now at CircaLasVegas.com slash LeBatardard we have been blown away
Starting point is 00:06:27 by the early signups now that there's four teams left in the nfl playoff some of you fans maybe having an eye towards vegas please make us a part of your plans because we have been working on this tirelessly and the venue is insane it's going to be a fun time. Stugats if I may because I don't know if everybody here knows it but this is a considerable expense for us to move our entire team for all their hard work over the last you know two and a half years to be able to move everyone we've got for a week-long party in Vegas that can be disjointed it's hard to move all of this Stugats you have felt whenever I go to Los Angeles or New York by myself, like we move together,
Starting point is 00:07:10 or we don't move at all and the chemistry gets disrupted, we are taking everybody to Vegas at considerable expense because we wanna reward everybody for the work that they have done here for two and a half years in a startup, and we know our audience is gonna catch us wherever it is that we land and so I will tell you from seeing some of the numbers here That Friday is a giant day because because people pour into Vegas Thursday we also have plenty of people but if you want to go and have good placement and be near what we're doing Which is unlike anything we've ever done, okay?
Starting point is 00:07:46 This is in South by Southwest. It's not Gramercy. It's our whole crew going to party in Vegas with the people who support us the best. And every time we've done anything that resembles a Moss, every single time, the people who are watching what we're doing are like, why didn't I go? This is the one I was going to go to. And I'm just telling you that this is the biggest celebration of what we've done in two and a half year.
Starting point is 00:08:08 A giant wad of money spent on behalf of the entire company to reward everybody for we wanna party with our fans. We wanna enjoy the end of Vegas. I don't wanna go to the Super Bowl, but the only reason we're doing this, we're not gonna do it on radio row, because that would be an unending misery for me. Well, we are doing it on Radio Row too.
Starting point is 00:08:26 I'm not doing it on Radio Row. That's heaven for me. No, that is heaven for me. Finally, Bill. Fine, fine. Two dollars and God bless, well, fine. I'm not going. You like it too, buddy.
Starting point is 00:08:34 Wingo's available if you guys want him. I've been on Radio Row twice in my career. I do like the hustle and bustle, but you guys own it. All right, so fun. Billy and... Mad Dog owns it, just so we're clear. Billy and... Well, I'd like the gold to be for you guys own it. All right. It's so fun. Billy and mad dog. Mad dog owns it, just so we're clear. Billy and, well, I'd like the goal to be for you to take it from Jim Rome and mad dog.
Starting point is 00:08:50 Like I want to arrive in Vegas with a noise. I want God bless football to show Russo and Jim Rome. No, you're not boss here anymore on Radio Rose. Stugatz is boss now of the most cliched, trite commercialized horror event in the history of sports. I can't wait. It's been very helpful, so we thank them. Is that a son behind you?
Starting point is 00:09:10 No. See, now you gave Lewis a compliment. Oh, no. And now he's putting things behind you so you can literally sun your asshole on the internet, which is forever. Don't, don't follow this. Not according to Peter King. You can say right now, given how the last two and a half years
Starting point is 00:09:25 have gone for me, that he is sunning an asshole right now by just putting that sun over me. Billy, where are we with Tony doing this? Because it's the most predictable and most obvious thing that Tony has done perennium tanning. He's a mystery to me. I don't quite understand him. I don't understand what he does.
Starting point is 00:09:49 I know he's doing, I think five o'clock until tomorrow morning, he's gonna be there live. I got to text this morning. Doing what though? I don't know. I think there's just, I think, best as I understand is him and Mike Fuentes are gonna be here hanging out
Starting point is 00:10:01 and there's gonna be a live camera and you can watch that. All right, let's do it. All right, listen to me. Okay, this is what I'm tired of around here. Okay. And I got a text this morning saying, hey, I'm not coming in and I need you to handle the podcast. I was like, lovely.
Starting point is 00:10:12 All right, listen to me. Can someone get control over something around here? Fuentes is dying to be on television and it'll do so even if there's not a mic around. So we're doing Truman Show today. And Tony and Fuentes who are not quite that entertaining when they're talking are now going to try and entertain people while not talking. That's mean.
Starting point is 00:10:30 That's mean. That's mean. You're making a very mean fault. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean.
Starting point is 00:10:38 That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. That's mean. Also just like I'd like to try to clear up what you're saying them trying to entertain people without a microphone on I Asked Tony. What do you have planned? He said nothing, so he's not trying to entertain people. There's just gonna be a camera
Starting point is 00:10:50 That's great. You get 24 hours of a valuable YouTube feed. What do you have planned? Nothing? All right great I think they said they're gonna play video games. All right, people want to be a Experienced great great To experience life then hop on the towel. We have a better way to experience life than hopping on youtube.com. Yeah. Slash app, LeBatard show and watching two other people without microphones. We did have a feed one time just focusing at the street with the promise of aliens. There were a lot of people watching that.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Here I can guarantee you'll see two aliens. Why are you laughing right in my face again? I'm just waiting to see how you close out this segment. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Are we going to entertain? This is something. All right, it's on them. But here's. Better than nothing. Yeah. This is what I will say to you guys. Our standard for these things is really sky high. Most of these watch alongs is usually just people sitting on couches doing nothing, except going, whoa.
Starting point is 00:11:56 There's also like TikToks that people like generate actual salaries, or people just watch them take naps. So maybe that's the lane they're going for. You never know what kind of kinky freaks are out there in our YouTube audience. Just waiting for a little glimpse of gotcha. If Tony Benz down shows a little ass crack,
Starting point is 00:12:13 you've made steak sauces day. And mine. I am, I'm simply stuck. Okay. On the idea of that is valuable real estate. If you have 15 hours on it, you have to do something that is planned to entertain people because they give us no greater gift than watching these stupidities that we do every day.
Starting point is 00:12:35 We were in my father's ear yesterday. What? Just wait till Tony and Point does do something that you have to apologize for. Well, that's what's gonna happen. You never, this is what I'm saying. What have we planned nothing except something that ends us? This is what I'm saying. It's not smart. Go bleach your kite pound sand What
Starting point is 00:12:57 Don lebatard well Charlie sent Charlie had this Charlie as far as I know so just Charlie's Title in my phone. Are you gonna say anything? Stugaz. How familiar were you at the time with Chewbacca? Like how your upbringing had how much Chewbacca in it? This is the Don Lebatar Show with the Stugaz. 3 Leg Parley, Pacheco Cash by going over 14 and a half yards or 14 and a half carries on the final carry. Yeah, Juju crafted that so let's, well hopefully here we have another winner.
Starting point is 00:13:46 Thursday Thunder is presented by DraftKings Fantasy Sports. Check out what DraftKings has to offer this season with code Dan, because life's more fun when you're in on the action. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Here's what Juju cooked up. Yeah. Two huge playoff games.
Starting point is 00:14:06 One destination to be there in person at stadium swim. Yeah. For weekend observations. That is the prize that everyone's high. We're doing that live on a Thursday or a Friday. We'll have Vegas observations. I love it. Yes. Already started working on it. Really? We haven't even gotten to Vegas observations. I love it. Yes.
Starting point is 00:14:25 Already started working on it. Really? We haven't even gotten to Vegas yet. What do you mean? It's just Vegas, Dan. It doesn't change. But what do you mean? I don't understand.
Starting point is 00:14:33 You haven't observed anything yet. I've been there plenty. Yeah, yeah. And no doubt, Rashad Bateman will be thinking he wants to be there at Stadium Swim when he goes over 23 and a half yards I like this one juju I really do the whole thing yeah I like this whole thing I think juju's got a winner here responsibly Marquez Valdez scantling over 13 and a half yards listen I've lost $300 there no all I need is a catch him. I've lost every time I've made the bet He's always at plus 17 and a half yards. He never gets it. He's dude
Starting point is 00:15:09 It keeps going down because he's been 18 and a half and 17 and a half all season and he stinks Now this one we should hit especially if what they're saying is true about the weather conditions getting mad He's cost me $300 in those shitty $50 prop beds every time I go over on him The He had 62 yards last week. I didn't bet him last week. Oh, really? I'm done with him. The good news is you're virtually guaranteed at least one drop back where Mahomes looks his direction. Whether or not he brings it down is another thing. Now, the weather conditions are actually shaping up for this last leg.
Starting point is 00:15:58 We had success last week with the Pacheco rushing attempts over, and we're closing out this three leg parlay with another rushing attempt over. David Montgomery, over 10 andacheco rushing attempts over and we're closing out this three leg parley with another rushing attempt over David Montgomery over 10 and a half rushing attempts so if the Lions are in that game in the second half we should hit that or if it's sloppy like it's angling for right now we should hit that too David Montgomery over 10 and a half rushing attempts to close par thursday thunder those of you who may not be as familiar with gambling a three team parlay pays a good deal of money and juju hit his last one we've had a lot of losers but now that juju is in charge juju is not a loser and it's a good person to put in
Starting point is 00:16:35 charge of that amin and charlotte are with us now and their show talking about losers speaking of losers oddball you're coming from doing oddball, which is every day except for Monday. What is it that you talked about the most? What is it that people should be going there to find that they cannot find anywhere else? You know, Dan, today on Oddball, we talked about the lies coming from the Milwaukee Bucks
Starting point is 00:17:01 organization. And if not lies, then just an inability to say it with their chest, what they did and why they fired Adrian Griffin and replaced him with Doc Rivers. Lot of hedging going on. Charlotte had a great line today about when you feel something or you do something, you just say it, you don't have to keep explaining
Starting point is 00:17:22 and bringing extra kind of context to it. Because the more you do it, the more you seem like Leslie Nielsen in airplane, but your nose is growing and growing and growing. I'm familiar with that. As you tell it. Over explaining is bad. Oh yeah. Just say it, right? Better to keep your lies with fewer details. I disagree with that. I think the deep, I
Starting point is 00:17:40 think a lie needs more details. No, no, no. I'm not saying aive. I'm saying, so the Bucks organization, they fire Adrian Griffin. And then in a lot of it, we talked about this yesterday, how Amin and I were saying like, well, he lost the locker room. The reason that he's not there is because it wasn't working, but because people didn't trust him.
Starting point is 00:17:56 So then John Horst, the Bucks GM comes out and is like, oh, it didn't have anything to do with what the players were saying. It wasn't that. It wasn't that. And Yannis is like, I was surprised. I was surprised. And it's like, if you're gonna do it, oh, it didn't have anything to do with what the players were saying. It wasn't that, it wasn't that. And Yannis is like, I was surprised. I was surprised. And it's like, see if you're gonna do it, just say it.
Starting point is 00:18:09 Just be like, yeah, it wasn't working. And then move on, you don't have to say a lot. Just stand by what you think. All right, I was just having a different conversation with you guys with Lucy. I was not listening to you two talk. Yeah, I noticed, Dan. All right, so I'm gonna admit something.
Starting point is 00:18:22 Thank you, box. But I want people to know what just happened here because I just asked Lucy, I just asked her away from you guys, what is the best way to lie? And this was her answer, with a lot of details. She was whispering it to me, with a lot of details. And then she stops and's like, with no details.
Starting point is 00:18:38 So she, Lucy. Good job, Lucy. Yeah, I don't understand what just happened because I think it's best to lie with a lot of details. Now she's right. I misunderstood the question originally. And so I was like, well, I changed my answer. I feel like that's allowed.
Starting point is 00:18:56 And I think the best way to lie is without details because the more details you use, the more likely you're gonna get caught. Also, it's like, hey, you're trying to convince me of something. If you just say it like, not a lot with it, I'm not gonna think you're gonna get caught. Also, it's like, hey, you're trying to convince me of something if you just say it like, not a lot with it, I'm not gonna think you're lying. I'm just saying you have an expert's in to your left. Yeah, you can ask him.
Starting point is 00:19:12 Why would you ask Lucy? I already said, just be efficient with your lie. No, but I, because he doesn't lie well. Mike Ryan says correctly, it's the most honest relationship he has. I always know when he's lying. And the problem is I give too many details. Stuccox is not a good liar. He's just a liar. He's not a the problem is I give too many details. That's not a good liar.
Starting point is 00:19:25 He's just a liar. He's not volume shooting. I'm a detailed liar. Yeah. He's experienced though. He's not good, but he's experienced. So that experience comes some veteran. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:36 Well, do we believe the Milwaukee Bucks to be lying? Yes. Yeah. What evidence do you have? Oh, that video way too much. And then they dance. Yeah. Like by the way, which was posted by who? Charlotte?
Starting point is 00:19:48 The Milwaukee Bucks account tweeted that out. The official Bucks account. That wasn't like a fan video. The Bucks were like, aha, first night, like did that for the social media people. That annoyed with Adrian Griffin too. It's, I don't know. They're dancing on his grave.
Starting point is 00:19:59 I literally thought of two different things. I thought of the end scene of Return of the Jedi when the Ewoks were celebrating. And I also thought of two different things. I thought of the end scene of Return of the Jedi when the Ewoks were celebrating. And I also thought about Wizard of Oz when the Munchkins were celebrating the death of the Wicked Witch. Ding dong, the witch is dead. Sing it, ha, sing it low.
Starting point is 00:20:14 Ding dong, the Wicked Witch is dead. That's what they're doing like this. And you can't, if you're still prepared, Red Dread. Let me explain to the audio audience only what we're presently witnessing because it is a serum it's a ceremony ritual dance of some sort that there is fire in the background and this is and this team won a championship the happiest you have
Starting point is 00:20:35 ever seen the Milwaukee Bucks they are Brooke Lopez has never looked that not stoic Brooke Lopez has never been this happy to have anyone removed from his life. There is genuine joy from the Milwaukee box because their coach has been fired after 43 games. That video is staggering as proof. Cameron Payne is my favorite because he's like the ringleader of, hey, guys, dancing, that's kind of my thing.
Starting point is 00:21:02 Everyone get behind me, we're gonna do this. And everyone just following along in this crazy train of celebration. But no, no, it had nothing to do with how the players felt. Like, come on, dude. We can see it. So there was another part which did not come out
Starting point is 00:21:18 or it was not reported because it's something that happened earlier in the year. But apparently John Horse Dog is named after Adrian Griffin. And that led me down to very, very stark paths. Path number one. Why would you say that, man? That sounds so dumb. But two, I don't want you to name your pet after me. That's an insult. Your pet? Put it on the poll at Lebatard show I think it's an honor put it on an honor let's see at Levitard show having a pet named after you is it an insult or
Starting point is 00:21:50 an honor I had a cat once his name was Schmitty he died but we named him after Bill Smith the Islanders goalie okay sport sport here it's a tribute to Billy Smith I mean there's a difference you can name like every dog in the New England region right now every golden retrievers named Tatum oh I thought there's a difference you can name like every dog in the New England region right now every golden retrievers named Tatum Oh, I thought he was a Brady or Brady, but they are starting to unfortunately pass away at this point I do think though There's a wave of that you can trace a wave of sports heroes based on animal names I think it's different if you name a dog after someone, know personally. Someone you know! John Horst, John Horst, his dog's name was Otis,
Starting point is 00:22:27 and this is according to Ramona Shelburne and Jamal Collier at ESPN. His dog's name was Otis, then he got into an elevator with Adrian Griffin and was like, actually you know what, my dog's name is Griff. That's what I'm talking about. We're not talking about, Stu guys, I'm not talking about naming your cat after your favorite goalkeeper, you know, of the 70s and 80s Islanders, right? Well, talk about someone you actually know personally. So how do I have to ask?
Starting point is 00:22:48 I mean, also ask the secondary poll question, ask it your way, because in my way it's gonna come back with a certain result. Ask it the way that you would like to ask it to frame it as an insult. Is it disrespectful to name a pet after someone you know personally?
Starting point is 00:23:04 And the thing that I wanted to bring up here as it relates to this particular story, because I'm sort of stunned what I'm watching now. And we have a lot of NBA insiders, a lot of people being paid a lot of money, but I don't actually know how deep this hatred runs. And the place that all the details come out is when you're no longer afraid that the coach has power over you.
Starting point is 00:23:26 So then all the stories get told. What are we going to hear about what he was doing in the coaching of the Milwaukee bucks that makes them dance on his grave like that in what looked like a ceremony of ritual religious celebration? Cause their coach after half a season doesn't have his job anymore. I don't know. I can tell you it was probably going to get it. Chris Haynes.
Starting point is 00:23:49 But what are the details going to be? Do you understand what I'm saying? Lou Holtz has like, whatever Dame wants them to be. You think Dame is the guy here? It's the NASA's. That's the key to it all. Aren't you hearing rumors?
Starting point is 00:24:06 I mean, as somebody who's like really close to the information of the NBA, aren't you super curious? This guy interviewed 14 times for this job and blew it in half a season. Then I guess, cause I know what that looks like. I'm familiar with how you can blow it in half a season. So I don't think it's, to be honest with honest, I don't think it's anything egregious. So yesterday, David Samson came on.
Starting point is 00:24:28 I was like, it must have been something so awful. I'm like, no, it's not what he's like. Is it your first time in sports? No, it's like it's simple stuff. You walk it. I once had a player tell me we lost the coach lost us in the first huddle because when he held the clipboard, it was like a spaghetti noodle that's that's what they said I'm like dude players will give up on guys for any number of reasons and it's just can you keep their
Starting point is 00:24:54 attention and their respect more than anything Samson once let go of the reigning manager of the year for no reason I would love a mean and Samson's art are Samson's about to come on with us. I would love for you him to argue about shit because I think Samson's... I argued about it with him yesterday. I think Samson's labor or so anti-labor that his management perspective is out of touch
Starting point is 00:25:16 with the modern employee in sports. Let's ask him and Ann about movies instead. I agree with that. I want to rip apart whatever list they come up with. Shout out to Griffin Hor Griffin horse go bleep your Oh, not again. Come on man What damn it? Don lebatard. Let's go to 80
Starting point is 00:25:37 Wow, I think Billy typed an eight instead of a B. Fine's a clear state Two guts number I've done an eight instead of a B, fine? It's a clear stay by, two dollars. Stugatz, number eight. He got it. That's great. That's Chris Carter on the line, CC, you got it. DCC Don Lebatar show with Stugatz. ["The Star-Spangled Banner"] Well, I can't give you a count on yet
Starting point is 00:26:03 because me is presently watching the trailer for Road House. Can I finish it or should I start with D-Wave? I mean, you have it shared. I mean, you have it shared. It's your haul, yeah. Two and a half minute. Two and a half minute.
Starting point is 00:26:13 No need to remake. You know what? I asked Lewis, you guys were talking about Road House remake and I was hoping that Lewis was running on what it is you were saying and he told me it wasn't because video. And we've got Samson and Adnan. We've got Samson and Adnan here We've got Samson and Adnan here and I want you guys to include them because their movie takes are a bit highfalutin and I want you guys to tell them how you feel about Roadhouse and the Roadhouse remake because
Starting point is 00:26:37 I suspect Samson will hate everything about Roadhouse. Well the trailer just dropped today and there's a bit of news because there was a premiere, but the director boycotted the premiere because he felt betrayed by Amazon Prime. They promised a theatrical release according to this director and it's premiering exclusively on Amazon Prime, so he's all heard about it. But I will say kudos to you, director, because you, you cut one hell of a trailer. I mean, Roadhouse is a very high standard of a brand to live up to. And does lineman is the director. He's one of my, I listened to swingers in my all time
Starting point is 00:27:09 favorite movies. So I'm pro Doug lineman to Mike's point. It's very important to filmmakers to have the theatrical release. That's why Chris Van Olin was so furious with Warner brothers left them, of course, made up on him or with universal. So I, I appreciate where he's coming from. I know David hasn't been in the movies as much, but you appreciate the theatrical experience as well Yeah, I just don't know if directors actually cut the trailers Some do Paul Paul talk business. Yeah, it generally is Paul Thomas Anderson cuts his own trailers But you're right generally somebody else doing it well either way this director had a hand in something that is presenting pretty well because I saw
Starting point is 00:27:41 That trailer being a fan of the original, thinking I'm being skeptical about the direction this one's going in, and this one looks dope. I'm in, the trailer is- Is his name Dalton in this one as well, or is it different? No, no, no, it's a different. They changed the name? If I may, Charlotte, Lucy, Billy,
Starting point is 00:27:55 do you care at all about what we're talking about here? Roadhouse the movie? He didn't even turn his mic off. No, I mean, all of you are slumped in your chairs. Look, I'm worried about this segment in general. It's an older movie. I can't expect everybody to. Look, I'm worried about this segment in general. That's an older movie. I can't expect everybody to watch it,
Starting point is 00:28:07 even if it's an actual movie. It's a classic, though. There's a torn trachea. What's it about? There's a trachea that gets ripped out. And Patrick Swayze throwing amazing kicks. I do like Patrick Swayze. You're led with the trachea.
Starting point is 00:28:19 No, you got to lead with it. It's a guy. He's the best bouncer in America. Apparently they have bouncer rankings. And so this rich guy who buys this bar, it's a guy. He's the best bouncer in America apparently have bouncer rankings and so this this rich guy who buys this bar That's a rowdy bar. He hires this dude from New York City to Missouri right come be the head bouncer at his bar Yeah, but but there's a Yoda of bouncers He teaches the greatest bouncer on the planet had to be a better bouncer. Are you guys messing with me? I'm dead serious
Starting point is 00:28:41 No, this is actually a Yoda of bouncers. Yes. And there's a rich guy in the town named Brad Wesley Who's a real asshole? You've gotten rich for a long time all these people. Right. Is that right? Is that Ben Gazza? Ben Gazza. This is a funny story. What are your favorites? Well, it's not one of them. This is my friend Boog Shambi in the street Ben Gazza because he shouted at Ben Ghazara
Starting point is 00:29:07 as he walked by, hey, Ben Ghazara! And Ben Ghazara's like happy to be recognized and pointing back at him. And Boog goes, love gin, roadhouse! And he was joking, like he was not, he was trying to insult him. And he did, because roadhouse is terrible. Like it's wonderful, it's wonderful! You watch what you're saying! Roadhouse is terrible. Like it's wonderful.
Starting point is 00:29:25 It's wonderful. You watch what you're saying. But it's terrible. If you saw it right now, Charlotte, Lucy, you'd think that everyone in this room is really dumb. No. I already think that a little bit. I mean, it's a big dumb guide flick. And it was of the time and Patrick Swayze can fill out a pair barrage. What was the Patrick Swayze one where he's the surfing?
Starting point is 00:29:48 What? Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Are you really asking that question? Charlie. Oh my god. Mike is bleeding from his ear.
Starting point is 00:29:56 Oh my goodness. I can't believe you. I can't believe you. The remake too. The remake too. How did we hire her? Well the remake was fast and furious. It just ripped off the formula.
Starting point is 00:30:08 I don't know either. I don't know what's going on. Catherine Bigelow, Academy Award winning director. Before. I'm pretty sure she won for that movie. By the way, if you break, if you love Road to House, Send them home episode 103, check it out. Yeah. I bow.
Starting point is 00:30:26 And sometimes I do these things on the air where I, I just wax poetic about these movies and it's a bit that's, you know, performative, not for point break, point break legitimately is one of my favorite movies of all time. It's like top three. I love it too. I was messing with you guys. I watched the new mission impossible the other day. Was it good?
Starting point is 00:30:47 It's amazing. I was like, why is everyone hating on this movie? Samson, Adnan. Oh, that's right. Hi guys. What's the dueling top five that we have today? Well, this week were the Oscar nominations and we touched on it a little bit in the local hour,
Starting point is 00:31:01 but I wanted to give my top five things from the nominations that made me happy. And Adnan wants to give you the top five things that made him angry. And Adnan is such an angry movie guy who wishes he had votes in all parts of the Academy. So he's just a bitter bastard at the moment, but I left the nominations disappointed with a few things,
Starting point is 00:31:21 but really happy about others. All right, per our custom with this segment, David, you take pretty much a remainder of the segment and Adnan rushes through his top five with 30 seconds left. The top five things that made me happy about the upcoming Academy Awards. Number five, past lives is a best picture nominee. I wish we had gotten the best actress nomination. I am very happy that people are gonna watch this movie because you should.
Starting point is 00:31:48 It's a movie about what happens when there's a chance that you could still be in love with someone who you used to know for a very short time, a very long time ago. Excellent film, set out to 824, number six on my top 10. Number four, Coleman Domingo was nominated for Best Actor. This is major. It's a movie called Rustin.
Starting point is 00:32:09 It's a true story. He is an openly gay actor, playing an openly gay part in a story that no one knows about. What went on behind the scenes with the march on Washington? Everyone assumes it was Martin Luther King. As a matter of fact, Rustin had almost everything to do with it, it was almost his show. And the fact that this actor was recognized for the role he played, not since Ian McClellan, God's and Monsters, it just doesn't happen often.
Starting point is 00:32:35 So that made me happy. Excellent actor, excellent performance. The scene where Dr. King gives Rustin props and they're late in the film is as good as it gets from Domingo, excellent. Number three, I am thrilled that Sterling K. Brown, He gives Rustin props in the late in the film is as good as it gets from Domingo. Excellent. Number three, I am thrilled that Sterling K. Brown, it gets to go to the Oscars as a nominee.
Starting point is 00:32:51 You may know him from This Is Us. I may know him from This Is Us. I am thrilled that he is getting props and acting. There were some people left out in supporting actor, including Willem Dafoe. But that said, having Sterling K Brown there makes the entire award show worth watching for me, including Justin Hartley getting the post-CBS show, by the way, after the Super Bowl. It is a This Is Us revival.
Starting point is 00:33:16 American fiction number four, my top ten. Really happy for Sterling K Brown, even happier for Jeffrey Wright. First ever best actor nomination for him. He's great at the movie as well. Is he better in that movie than Source Code? I would say yes. Number two, I am very happy that both Niaad actresses got recognized. There's a lot of problems in these categories. People are upset, but Jodi Foster and supporting actress from
Starting point is 00:33:39 Stealing Home and the accused, you know Jodi Foster. And then Annette Benning, my favorite Warren Beatty's wife, but most importantly from Bugsy and all sorts of unbelievable movies a net betting best actress so Naya at is a movie you should see about a woman who's crazier than I am who kept trying to swim the English Channel and finally made it at an age that's older than even me and LeBatard perfectly decent movie not a great film, but the two nominations are definitely deserved, especially Jodie Foster.
Starting point is 00:34:10 She's excellent as a very understated, supportive coach. All right, so these guys, they badly, badly want to live in this space where they just go back and forth on, on, they love this. They love this so much. Oh, Dan, the list was humming. Yeah, like my, yeah, yeah. We're gonna run on time.
Starting point is 00:34:23 What are you doing? Yeah, yeah. You can preamble in the middle of it. The only reason I'm doing a preamble is how do we let Charlotte skate on not knowing that? Dan, Dan, Dan. He was joking. I've seen them.
Starting point is 00:34:34 It was a troll. Because natural, you know. You have to hit the tall. No one is gonna see this. He's the 90s singer. Boo, Levitag. I even saw the remake. She knows the Bodhisattva.
Starting point is 00:34:44 I mean, come on. He hits it on the middle, just an ample. That's right. You suck, love a target. To the penalty box. Number one, David. The number one thing that makes me happy is Paul Giamatti. Not only was nominated for the holdover is my favorite movie
Starting point is 00:34:58 the year, but the son of the former commissioner, the one who suspended and got rid of band Pete Rose. Paul Giamatti is going to win, spoiler alert, his first Oscar as best actor in the holdovers. And that's it. I really hope he wins. It's his first ever best actor nomination, was previously nominated for Cinderella in supporting. As Amin knows, since he follows my Instagram, I met Paul Giamatti last Sunday at the Crick's Choice Awards and he was awesome. We talked about Barney's version of Win-Win, which is the film I love.
Starting point is 00:35:28 I did not mention Abe Barlow, Giamatti. He does not want to talk about baseball. He does not want to talk about Pete Rose, but he's an awesome guy. And one of my favorite actors, I couldn't agree more with Samson. I was elated that Paul Giamatti is nominated. I think Kili Murphy is still the favorite because everyone's seen Oppenheimer and Oppenheimer is going to win Best Picture and Best Director. But if the saga war goes to Giamatti, I'm with David, I think Paul might have the edge.
Starting point is 00:35:47 I was elated, I love Paul G. I'm sorry. We ain't. And I'm just curious from the Critics Choice Awards, when you chose which selfies to post, we talked about this on the show last week. Yeah. And I'm just curious, did you think that photo with you and De Niro was a good photo or did you realize that he did not want any part of it?
Starting point is 00:36:04 What happened is Ben Lyons. It says to me, here's your DeNiro moment. Bob was walking out and I said, I've got one moment here just to say, Hey, Bob, how are you? And he shook my hand and that was it. So that was not a stage photo. That was Ben capturing an action shot. If you took it a few frames previous, you would have seen the warm smile on his face. It was a wonderful moment. A record two minutes left for ad nance top five. Thanks, dude. All right. Number five biggest still a Michael J. Fox movie, not nominated for best documentary. Wow. I haven't seen all the docs yet, but this is the documentary
Starting point is 00:36:37 most people have seen. Mike, well, I can't believe something an asshole right now. I can't believe that Michael Fox and, oh, it was Guggenheim who directed it did an inconvenient truth was not recognized at least as nominate surprising. Number four, Margot Robbie snubbed for Best Actress. I didn't love Barbie, okay? I liked it. I thought it was a good movie. I see nominations for production design, etc.
Starting point is 00:36:59 After I saw it, screenplay, sure. I didn't say to myself, this film should win Best Picture, but if you're gonna nominate for Best Picture, how the hell do you not nominate the woman playing Barbie? Margot Robbie, I know, still gets credit as a producer. But to nominate Barbie herself is ridiculous. The biggest- The biggest-
Starting point is 00:37:15 No, it was Greta Gerwig, not Margot Robbie. No, I have no issue with that because number three is Alexander Payne should have been nominated for Best Director, not Greta Gerwig. That's my number three. I like the fact they included some other names, Jonathan Glazer, the Zone of Interest, Justine Trie, for Anatomy of Fall, to excellent films, to foreign films. So I like the fact he gets some more names in there. Gerwig gets enough love because she's nominated for screenplay. Payne should have been nominated. He didn't write the
Starting point is 00:37:36 script for the Holdovers. He should have been nominated for Best Director. He got snubbed. Number two, Leonardo DiCaprio for Killers of the Flower Moon, not nominated. How do you have a movie? Killersers the Flower Moon got 10 Oscar nominations, but the best actor Leonardo DiCaprio misses out. So apparently everything was great about it except for DiCaprio. It gets a best supporting actor nomination for De Niro, his first in 12 years. It gets a best actress nomination for Lily Gladstone, Marty's nominated for director, but apparently it acted itself.
Starting point is 00:38:02 DiCaprio not necessary for best actor, ridiculous. And number one biggest snuff, no Martin Scorsese for best adaptation. Oh Jesus Christ already. Absolute outrage. Now here's the good news, 10 seconds, five. Scorsese becomes the most nominated living director today. More Academy Award nominations than Steven Spielberg. But to not be nominated for the screenplay, they adapted David Graham's book, Keen and
Starting point is 00:38:23 Eric Roth. Originally, the Capriot was gonna play the FBI agent because actually, you know, I want to play his nephew. They rewrite the entire script. They're telling the story of the old man. Gambley problem, call 100 Gambler. Agent eligibility restriction supply. Voidware prohibited. See draftkings.com for details.
