You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. Welcome to the big suite, presented by Giraffe King. Why are you listening to this show? The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Levitard 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 man to nowhere, that face and the habitual liar. The good stuff Stugat is beginning to trickle in, hey, Lebitard, yoke-itch looks like a loaf of bread. You heat bleepers better not be allergic to gluten. Aswapin sandwiches are gonna be served here soon.

Gonna sweep that ass right on out of here, like we did those lakers and four broom emoji, emoji's loaf of bread is going to win finals MVP two fat boy. Can they make an ass flipping sandwich gluten free for me though? Put it on the pole, please at Levitard shoe show, juju, would you enjoy eating and a gluten free ass whooping sandwich? The nuggets are a really good team. They're an overwhelming team.

They should be the favorites. They are the favorites. They have everything. But they heat up Jimmy Butler. Well, this is the arguments to God's has been making here for three days. Anytime I say, oh, best net rating since the Warriors in 2018, Stugots is answers. Yeah, but Jimmy. I don't think they're overwhelming.

Net rating. They're good. Net rating wise offensively they are. But they're offensively. They're offensively as good as the, the, the warriors felt just by empirical advanced numbers as the warriors felt four years ago. But you saw their sweep. Brandamore would call it not a sweep.

Those games were tight. Those were an overwhelming victories in the four games. years ago, but you saw their sweep. Brenda Moore would call it not a sweep. Those games were tight. Those weren't overwhelming victories in the four games. Sweep's what are we doing there? No, not a quarter-and-a-half. Sweep is a sweep. But Brenda Moore looks at that and he does a Leo de Caprio. Like, yes, another sweep.

That's not actually a sweep. I think in hockey, when all the games are quadruple over time and decided by one goal, you could say that a sweep is not a sweep. No'll laugh at you slightly less but you can't do that in basketball Brad Williams is still here it makes me happy good and not it makes me happy that you brought up ass whooping sandwiches I want that I someone someone open that shop please ass whooping sandwiches who's not buying an ass whooping sandwich I love that Brad is here and Chris Cody is not. I mean.

Mike, you know the way to God's ears. You know the way to of Chris Cody. Are you still confused as to how long and why this ad-nand Burke interview is lasting for several months? I think he's still in the penalty box for his Jess gag. Oh, yeah. Yeah, the lights were off and he tried to pretend he was Jess. Yep.

My voice only. Not even by voice. It was just so bad. What? That's a Dan kicked him out to the penalty box and then he immediately was back in the room and he and he said, what are you doing here? He said, it's not Chris. It's Jess.

And then why why do you guys insist on replaying the show for me? I want to listen. Can you guys tell me again what replaying the show for me. I want to listen. Wait, can you guys tell me again what happened? I know you don't want to listen to yesterday's show. And I'm oddly proud of it granted it was a huge embarrassment to lose a cluster. But it wasn't that bad. Listen back to it.

Wasn't like it was anyone here's fault. Right. And I feel like we aspire to Bill Simmons did it. Not that well, it may be my fault because when I went to the Marlins game last night, they also had a blackout at the Marlins game. So literally I was part of two blackouts within a 12 hour period. Now in college. Maybe this is like, I've always said that it's weird being a little person because all

of our stereotypes are fake. It's all like, oh, we have pots of gold and we're leprechaunce and stuff And it's nothing real. Maybe the real stereotype is that we cause blackouts Nobody knows that this is just we're just learning this over the last couple of days We had such a good show planned to stoo got Bill Simmons his face which has become an amazing sports meme over the last couple of days because people are enjoying Boston, Missouri was going to be in a tiny little box in all of the video we sent out yesterday, no matter what we were talking about. So I was hoping to have one of those silly viral moments where there is no explanation and then a news gathering outfit that takes itself seriously has to put it up on its screen

with Bill Simmons in a corner looking really sad because his Celtics lost. We had a viral moment just for all the wrong reasons. Well, Dan Patrick had the viral moment. And he enjoys laughing at how much, in general, more professional he is than I am at all things. That would never happen to Dan Patrick Patrick the power would not go out on Dan Patrick I'm sure he's got seven backup generators. Well, I mean you could do the bit again today you could put the Bill Simmons Photo up and I don't know talk videos not working actually working. That's still not working because of the blackout

Sorry, sorry guys still me still me. I'm still in the building. Are Bill Simmons machines down? I leave today so you should have video and everything else be fine tomorrow. I have a hunch Dan about this power outage, suspicious power outage I should say. And everyone was blaming Bill Simmons and Boston for our power going out yesterday, but last week, we got very close to finding out who the culprit of the fine

bucket theft was. And then suspiciously this week the power went out. Are the two things connected? Did we get suspiciously close to that because I don't feel like we're very close to understanding who stole like five hundred dollars in fine bucket money around here. Although if someone did do that and we've all said hey return it there will not be any consequences, other than the profound shame of all of us knowing that you're a thief and no one's returned it. Well, they haven't returned it

and I think they are trying to prevent us from further digging in. I think we're close. That's all I have to say. You're investigating as a metal-arc team to try and find out who did it. New true crime pod coming to you. Not returning it.

One of the big stunners on the lie detector, I believe. The stunner is that you didn't steal the fine bucket money this time. The big stunner was that he decided to be honest and let his true feelings about Pablo fly. In that moment, he's like, I'm not even gonna try to game this as unfair. I regret that.

Yeah, it was a terrible question. Plus, you know, Joe Harper's, you know, he was off his game. He didn't seem like he was on his game. Again, it done it in a while. I don't know. If I may, I apologize, with the steering wheel, because I miss the first hour. And I'm sure you guys talked about me culture and all the. We also talked about the blackouts. Yeah. No, I gathered that. I saw the cry on, but I just wanted to revisit my shame from yesterday. I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around

what the NBA has become. And I guess I attributed all the wacky things to the pandemic. Yeah, bubble, okay, shortest off season ever. It people in and out of lineups, no continuity. And then last year, the heat came back and they were a one seed. And it's just been like a really odd four season sample. But this year was normal by most NBA standards. And yet an eight seed in a non-lockout season made the NBA

finals. And that's never happened before. And you have, you have basically two teams that are built around one star. And we got out of an era where you needed three, and then two was a hot thing, and now you have just two teams that have one guy. And that's a trend. That's four years of just like random NBA parody. Well, Mike, the nuggets kind of have two, don't they? With Murray?

No, Murray's come back online. That's fair. I think you can make the argument, despite his inconsistencies, that bam, the plan is for bam to be that number two. Well, if anyone gave stardom for defense, ban would be a star, but nobody gives it for defense unless you're Ben Wallace and dream or dream on green. Yeah, ban.

If you look at what he's held opponents in terms of field goal percentage him and Jimmy, especially their absolute superstars. But is this what the NBA is now? Because four years like we've gone an entire Olympiad with thinking we know one thing because we've always been right. Our entire years of following the NBA, it's usually been two teams in the East that you have a good feeling we'll get to the finals and you're rarely ever surprised. Same thing goes for the West.

And even though they have a two time MVP arguably one of the greatest big men of all time if not the greatest, Denver is still kind of a surprise. You're surprised yet again by an NBA finals. We're surprised seemingly year over year now. The Warriors got back to it when they miss a playoffs of previous year. What's going on in this part? If LeBron, you've had the numbers all distorted by threes. That's a start for that. But when you're talking about roster construction, LeBron James is now an old man. But because one guy couldn't get past three, because one guy couldn't get past

Garnette and Ray Allen and Pierce he altered the paradigm and then all of a sudden for a generation It's three guys you need three guys the way you used to need three guys when it was magic and Karim and worthy We'll invent the third guy for you. We'll make the third guy for you even better than he was at the time when he's the third guy on a champion, but you also had bird and parish and mcayle. You're like, Horace Grant, we made a great player. He was the third guy. And usually though, at the very start of that, the startle at the start of that because he changed a decade of basketball was, oh, Dirk just won that by himself. Dirk just won that against

the three dudes. He beat Bosh and he beat Wade and he beat LeBron. And it ushered in now an era of Durant's going to change teams. And the Warriors got the three guys. But in the middle of that is the Warriors get hurt. Koli wins one by himself. Yeah, I guess you could say between errors. You had Jordan. You have the Jordan area. You have the LeBron era and LeBron spoiled all the basketball fans because you,

yeah, you could always sell who was making the finals because LeBron was always making the finals. On one side of the bracket, you knew LeBron's going to be in there. And in recent years, he's been a part of the conversation half the time, the other half, sometimes not even in the playoffs. It's a very weird dynamic, but in the mid 2000s, you had the dynasty of the San Antonio Spurs and never went back to back.

You had Shaq Kobia Lakers there, but it was still fun. You had the RANDOMO 6 Championship of the Miami Heat, and it was a little bit unpredictable. And I think we're getting back to that right now in the NBA. And I don't know getting back to that right now in the NBA. And I don't know if I like parody so much in that sport. I like being able to just not watch the regular season and say, I don't know, I know the teams

I'll be there in the end. Now that your team is on top, you're like, I don't like this parody thing. I like it to stay this way for the rest of time. Welcome, I am a Lakers fan. Welcome to this side. I know parody. I think I could step aside like my heat

Homerism to even be like confused like I still don't know if the heat are good. I don't I don't think that they're a good basketball team that they're not a championship quality team and yet in my heart of hearts. I think they're gonna win this series against Denver and it yeah I think they're gonna win your heart of heart., I think they're gonna win the series. Heart, heart, heart. So you're saying, you're not gonna be the heart of heart. Heart of heart, heart of heart. Heart of heart, heart of heart.

They're gonna be coming up. I think they're gonna beat Denver because why would I count them out now? There were bigger underdogs against boss and there were much bigger underdogs against Milwaukee. At this point, Denver, this is gonna sound cocky, but it's kind of like, at this point, when it comes to odds, light work.

I'm only minus 360 or you can't, you can't be that guy. What? Minus 360, comparatively, is like, every time that you would go against the heat, they would win. So now that you're going for the heat, now they're going to lose.

Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Nick's a real good player. So that could be right. No, Nick's a trash. I knew that we were going to run there. Well, okay, and the bus had a good, and I thought we were going to beat the Celtics. I just did that reverse jinx before the game to like I thought we were gonna

Run Okay, this is the third time with the reverse James you're welcome. You're an adult human being. Yeah, yeah Child with adult to be power shouting reverse Jinks you're separated from it.. I will that team to victory. You are, it didn't work. You're welcome. Did Bill Simmons copy write that? Is that trademark by, are you stealing the Bill Simmons?

Real ones now. Real Hoopers now. Thank you, Mike. Are you stealing the reverse jinks? No, I invented it. Yup. Ha, ha, ha. Ha, ha.

We're having a very good show. Hola, alguien me escucha. Necesito ayuda. Estoy en Barcelona. Y las criaturas están por todas partes. ¡Hasta la próxima! Oíden las personas que os piden que mireis, si queréis seguir convido. Okay, come to the phone. Even though. Okay. See, doesn't I sound better dressed? Yeah, everybody. No, it does not. It does not sound better. It sounds. He is absolutely slurring his hey everybody. By the way, not surprising at all that he would answer the phone and think just everybody is that it's only one person calling it.

It's everybody. Still got. He's performing, baby. And it's only my God around him. Hey, everybody. He was 19 Miller lights deep. We were sorry. It's everyone calling everybody.

He's doing a little show. A little show. Everything is good content. The red code show. It's like he's a train Greg Cody. Hi everybody. This is the Don Lebertar Show with this two cats. Drafking Sportsbook, an official sports betting partner of the NBA has a limited time offer

So we don't have the imaging we need here exactly. We've erased my father from our library and history regardless here. Just a couple days late is Stugaz's weekend observations. We can't observations brought to you by Miller Light. I miss your dad. 96 calories available for delivery. Then they won five straight national championships at 7 and 8 years from 2005 to 2012.

They won away for a bit, but recently have shown signs of a resurgence, making it to the last five final fours. Den. That all changed over the weekend. Dominating Denver and Boston College by a combined score of 33 to 13 in route to their eighth national championship. And then, just like that, make no mistake about it. The Northwestern Woman's LaCross program is back. The cast. Led by Rachel Weiner.

Yeah, well, not real. Me and Ledbyes, very strong. Me and led by is very strong. And disrespectful to a really great team. She's a freshman, you know, earning stripes. Exactly right. Anyone else wondering if Brooks Capka is still awake? Anyone? There were things that were done in the Dallas Vegas series

that would have been illegal in most states. Did you watch that series? How mad is Canada about this Stanley Cup final match? I think in the last 30 years, the number of Canadian teams to make the Stanley Cup final is equal to the number of teams from Florida that have made the Stanley Cup final. The Vegas and Florida, that hurts particularly

if you're like Toronto. You know what's wild is that Vegas is the far more prestigious franchise. The big Florida. Yeah. Five years of existence. Yeah, like Florida feels like the new kid on the block when it comes to hockey that bad.

Vegas loses a lot less. Levy on Bell said he smoked pop before games the news here is that things that levy on bell says are still news that should be news though like that I mean that used to be if someone admitted that 10 years ago shocking that would have been what was that tone? Red Moss talked about smoking blood before games all the time. Okay. I Tony your microphone has to be on when you brought another microphone was on at the same time So I was just trying to make a point. There's always a mic on Tony

Dan you know what the bee and levy on bell stands for I do not it stands for baked There is nothing better than here in a bunch of loud mouth Boston fans all become silent at once. Northwestern women's lacrosse team. Thank you for providing me with that experience. You too, he DeAndre Hopkins Buffalo Bills collision course. the Raiders can release Jimmy Garoppolo anytime they want without penalty Did you know what that means? It means it's happening They can only release some penalty free this summer It means it's happening Mike Ryan reported exclusively 10 days ago that Tom Brady is coming back

He reported this based on just his heart of hearts. Las Vegas nights or Florida Panthers, either way, the Stanley Cup has a future date with cocaine. The French just ate the French without Rafi El Nadal. Rafa. Put it on the pole, please, Jude. Is the French the French El Nadal. Rafa. Put it on. You agree, right? Put it on the pole, please, Juju, is the French, the French, without Nadal. We still have Gael Molfi. That's right.

Slider, man. Yep. He's not going to win it, though. He never does. No. Get to the semis and always lose it. No, it's a wide open tournament now. Because Nadal's not there.

Yeah. Yeah, but the Joker is. Plenty surface, though. And it will, the red quartz, the red clay at Roland Garros. I mean, good coverage. That is correct. I'm just happy that we have something to bet on during the show.

It's never game, Dan. It is not even sure the clay is actually red. Of course it's red. Come on, dude. It's like it's red. It's red. It's it's it's sunrise. At most burnt orange.

Sunrise aren't red orange. It's it's it's at most burnt orange. Yeah, what's on rice orange red orange? What do you do it? I'm trying to do it. Is the grass green it wimble then I mean what is clay is clay? Clay is a clay color the grass is green it wimble then yeah Just object into color that's it. Okay Is it gonna do the thing? In this week's edition of May, the Baltimore Ravens planned to head to London earlier than they did the last time they went to London.

Also Sean McDermott said he'll be using two different brains as Bill's head coach and defensive coordinator DC. You would of course know what that means, right Dan? Using two brains. It would mean a couple of brains would be cutting it up. For that, I'd settle for one. Izzy Skane, best lacrosse player in the country. And it's not even close. The Skane Train Jimmy Garoppolo waiver. Something smells fishy.

There is nothing and nobody that is more lacrosse right now than the Kavanaugh brothers at Notre Dame. Ah, the Kavanaugh brothers. You love them, don't you? I went to college with their older brother Matt was on the Lex team. I mean, Notre Dame, what's the last name? No clarity. I mean, like, what is a more Notre Dame? Where's Gonsali?

Where's Benny? Just Gavin Os. Patrick Cavanaugh's pretty Notre Dame. I mean, honest. Where's the people inside? Patrick Cavanaugh got a scholarship just because his name was Patrick Avenue. But on the Paul Judeo ad-lib and Targ show, does Notre Dame give scholarships just because

your name is Kevin O. A couple of national champions, cut it up. If you had the actual waiver in your hand and smelled it, what you would smell is fish. I mean, it does, it does seem suspicious. It's a weird clause to have. Hey, we can cut your penalty free this summer. It can go up right now. Grubble-o-handsome option.

Come on, guys, like, they got five prime time games. The Raiders, you watched them last year, yes? I'm also not totally unsure that Tom Brady isn't just petty enough to be like, look, I was a champion and they said Garoppolo could take my job in New England. You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to own the team and my first act is going to be cutting you and becoming a quarter. No, my first, my first motion in the shadows is to say we should sign you, but to a penalty free deal.

So when I come back, I you. Putting in a clause. Hey, hope his agent doesn't notice a clause that Brady's putting in the contract. It's got his former coach coach in the team. He's doing the exact same dolphin plan. I don't understand why is happening in front of everybody. Why am I the crazy one? Gloria has, Floreo's been telling you Ben Vola. Why is no one paying attention to this? Brady has told you what the executed plan is and he's doing it. They're on TV the second most in the sport. How is Brady doing this quietly?

Hey, attention, national media. David Beckham said today that Brady looks bored. He was hanging out with him. And Fred Gidelli said he has never mentioned broadcasting to him ever. Fred Gidelli, that's a fine. Oh, yeah. It's happening. The report is that it's that he's going to turn down $375 million just to do this to Garoppolo. You you summer who have Devonte Adams already trashing Garoppolo. This is genius. Come on, guys.

He wants to win the Super Bowl on his home stadium again in Vegas this time. Do you understand that the only argument against this that anyone is making is he's not going to unretire. It's time to again. We was on the sand. It's been done. But are they for real? Wouldn't bring more good a time, brother. Probably the most terrifying and violent headline I've ever read involving golf.

Oregon ducks golfer Greg Schlag was forced to withdraw from the NCAA national championship tournament. After a tee went through his shoe and impaled his foot. Impaled is not a great verb. You don't want you don't want to be around and impaled. Was it like upside down face up like a fun fact? I think so. Yeah. Home Alone style. Yeah. Could you imagine him just being in the trainer's room next to members of the football team? The hockey team. I present to the court the whitest injury I've ever heard of in my entire life. Golf tea and pale of the foot. Now that I really think about it, the Garoppolo waiver would be wrapped around an actual fish Tossing it like the fish market in Seattle

Vegas nights, how can that happen quietly? That can happen quietly that's not allowed people are gonna be surprised when it happens and Stugots and Mike and Billy have been shouting this from the mount top. You don't think Brady's actually retired, do you? They'll never be retired. Heat nuggets is what keeps Adam Silver up all night in a cold sweat. Vegas nights in Florida Panthers is what keeps Brooks Kepga up all nights in a cold sweats. For Jimmy G Tom Brady just continues to be a thorn in his

side. You know what the T in Tom stands for Dan Thorn and Jimmy side. Like a T in his foot. Panthers and nights, the rare Stanley Cup where there will be more bloody noses in the stands than on the ice. the tradition unlike any other. The annual JJ Watt Memorial Day tweet that reads always grateful followed by the American flag emoji followed by hashtag Memorial Day. JJ Watts top five holidays. Oh wow. This is exciting. This is very exciting.

Number five. World Hunger Day. He doesn't like that there's hunger or like people are starving. He likes to solve it by himself. That's right, that's right. Exactly. A good cause to get behind it. Anybody would get behind it. Number four, Memorial Day.

Number three, National American Eagle Day. Number two, Flag Day. Number two flag day. And number one, of course, Independence Day. Lord of Marlins, worth keeping an eye on. Nick Nurse to the Sixers. Nick, welcome to the world of expectations. Enjoy the sea and Caleb Martin stands for contract extension. Lord Stanley, more like dear Lord, I'm sorry Stanley. There's a part of me that really wants to see a parade down the Vegas strip. Aaron Rogers, not sure what the hell you are on but Lord knows I want some of it Speaking of hell or prials Dan those are the weekend observations Don't let it hard. You know what a razor is Dan. I do not know. I don't know what a motor roller razor is You don't know you I bet you you had one. I did not know. I don't know what a Motorola Razor is. You don't? No. I bet you you had one.

I did not have one. Really? Let's walk through your phone history. What kind of phone? I never had a Motorola Razor. I did not have a Motorola Razor. What was your first phone? Ooh. Not a Motorola Razor.

Telegraph machine after that. The Motorola Razor Dan was the one that was like really, really thin. That it flipped over, but it was like as thin as like a razor blade. That's why they called it the Razor. What is a telegraph machine? I don't know. They had one in Down Naby. really thin that it flipped over but it was like as thin as like a razor blade that's why they called it the razor. What is a telegraph machine? I don't know. They had one in down nabby. Stugats!

The Titanic stop has sunk in stop. John take a bath to stop. It's missing. Stop. You think that was my phone? You think that my first phone was the Titanic's emergency signal.

I saw Stugots the other day that Aaron Boone, the Yankee Manager, has now been ejected 30 times and seems to me to be quite the achievement in the technological age where you don't really need managers to make fools of themselves arguing things. But on balls and strikes, that's one of the places managers can keep arguing. But I saw two great stats from the past, one of them involving ejections last week when Bobby Cox turned 62 years old. One of these baseball stats has nothing to do with ejections. It's just that Barry bonds in 2004. He was on base. Hold on. There's no way Bobby Cox is 62 years old. No, he's 80 years old. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. No, he's 82. I'm sorry. My bad 82 years old. I didn't mean to do that. It's a secret to aging by the way, Bobby Cox. Well played. It's a fine for someone. It sounds like a fine for me. Barry bonds in 2004. It's like a riddle.

It's funny. He's blackballed soon thereafter. He had 373 at bat and he reached base 376 time. That's it sounds like a mathematical impossibility. I think Tony is still confused. Dan, how did he get to base more times in a bat? Because walks don't count as a bat. Yep. Huh. And he just like spent that whole season getting on base and no one wanted to pitch to it. Yes, they were all terrified of him. But Bobby Cox was ejected 161 times in his career. And I think you got to get ejected one more time so that you could say you were ejected from a season's worth of baseball game. Come back just to get ejected. Yes. Put it on the pole, please. Should Bobby Cox come back for one game just to get ejected?

So he can have a full 162 ejection on his resume. Tony, it seems like you feel bad about not knowing that it bats. No, because I was half listening and then when I heard the numbers, they didn't make sense. And I was like, 373, 376. What is Dan trying to do? And then I was thinking about it and then when I heard the numbers they didn't make sense and I was like 373 376 What is Dan trying to do and then I was thinking about it and then the walks thing So how many times did he actually have played appearances versus walks and hits and home runs and all that stuff So there's a lot to think about it. It wasn't though. You just were half-listing. I was just half-listing Which Jessica has pie over on her computer. So I was looking at the pies. Yeah

I put it on the pole Should Dan be disturbed that he can't keep the attention of people he's paying to be fair. Pie. That's not pie. It's the pewter. Vita delivery. You totally, you totally threw Jessica under the bus because the spotlight was on you. Thank you, Dan. That was an amazing. I'm just trying to, I'm just trying to explain to my boss why I was half listening because half my brain.

Why you don't know baseball stats? No, it's the two side of the brain thing like me, Dermey, I had half my brain listening to the stat. And then half my brain was like, ooh, pop. Don't tell yourself short, you guys had a segment so boring that Jess couldn't help but look at pies. He started talking about an 82 year old right off the bat. I have decided to order lunch. Oh, not talking about an 82 year old right off the bat. I've decided to order lunch.

Oh, he started with a six year old. That's pretty interesting. Yeah. 82 year olds are having kids now, so. Let's talk about that for a second. That's a bad idea. I'm back. I'm f***ing it.

Let's talk about, let's talk about selfish Al Pacino. Selfish. Oh, totally. Selfish, Dan. He's in love. Like the the De Niro Pacino personal rivalry and professional rivalry. It's gone too far. Goes this far. I just think they want their kids to grow up together and have a friend under the same unique circumstance that they were. Hey, Michael Manrode. Michael Manrode, he's prequel. Let's get cracking.

Seems 82 year olds are interesting to the group. I just picked the wrong one. Only when they're having sex. What's the difference on this one though? Like, yeah, it's a lot. It's a lot. 82 to 29. It's a lot.

She's. I'm 29. Oh, no. Oh, sounds like my grandfather. lot. It's a lot. It's a lot. She's I'm 29. Oh, no. Oh, sounds like my grandfather. Nope. What? 29. Al Pacino at 82 years old is having a child with his 29 year old girlfriend. This after Robert De Niro had a child at 79 years old. But she knows 83, it's a Fodd. Do you know anyone's age?

Yeah. 29. Can you guys believe that I found another way to talk about heat? It's like I was in heat. You think he selfish, Billy, and I think it's indisputable that if you're having babies at 82 years old and you don't have much of a three. Just went over this.

I mean, guys, he's very famous and to play devil's advocate when he come across a send of a woman, you can only do so much. Exactly. It really going into the wall of today, man. Bobby Cox, though. Not having a kid in the handhouse. Brad, yes, sir, help me understand difficult subject matter here. Okay. Let me understand difficult subject matter here. When we're looking for public targets in this divided political age where we're shooting machine guns at Bud Light Tans and everyone is afraid of corporate cancellation. How in God's name have I lived long enough

to see Chick-fil-A go from being protested because of religious roots that had a bit of homophobia in it in a way that was almost our introduction to corporations taking stands on things in a way that was unpopular to Chick-fil-A now because it is implementing a diverse committee of executives to look for diversity. Now Chick-fil-A has gone from one end of the spectrum to being protested for being too woke by trying to implement diversity.

All I know is first of all, I'm getting thrown into the take, which kind of makes me nervous because Dan, you do this and don't get me wrong. I love this show. I listen to this show. There's certain takes that you have that I agree with, some that I immediately disagree with, most importantly, the take I vehemently disagree with, most importantly, the take that you thought John Malaney, the special, wasn't that great

because you saw him three months earlier and it was the exact same material. Typically how that whole gig works. What? What? What did you think? He's gonna have a whole new hour on Netflix three months after okay never mind That was the one that I've evenly disagreed with but I think that we're getting into a time where all

Companies are gonna have to pick a side and just lean in and I'm okay with this Because I want to see the commercials. I want to see the commercials. Yeah, Bud Light, angered a lot of conservatives. Let's have a conservative beer. I want the conservative, like hard leaning. Have it be called hold my. Hold my beer. The ad would be great. Is there an election that you think was fraudulent?

Hold my beer I Think we need to go this route. I think instead of corporations sit everything out take a side pick it and see if you can increase your sales by By just having instead of doing Formuleic JJ watch stallion commercials running around an American flag pick a side running around an American flag, pick a side. Can we go back to the take you also just had, which was that Chick-fil-A was the first corporation to take a political stand on anything?

Are you aware of the history of corporations? What I meant was it's the first corporation that I associate specifically with homophobic policy and waving a religious flag loudly. I sort of where I remember some of these discussions starting as Chick-fil-A as being on the US military. I go with the US military first. He was like, there was a lot before to, yeah. Or just being a human, I think.

Yeah, but the funny part about all this is that they're protesting just a position. A position that's's last I read, existed for several years and people just got around to. They have a director of inclusion. Let's boycott them. And for all the tough talk, keep in mind the left tried to boycott Chick-fil-A. And it failed.

You know why? Because Chick-fil-A is delicious. Yeah, it's just too delicious. Nearly impossible to break up. I defy conservatives to actually follow through with this boycott. They won't. They won't. You know why?

It's been tried out before. And Chick-fil-A is too delicious. Everyone boycotts Chick-fil-A on Sunday. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But then on Saturdays. Yeah. That Paulie sauce. I honestly wasn't aware of this Chick-fil-A controversy. Yeah, I was gonna say stuff about Sundays. But then on Saturdays, that polysons. I honestly wasn't aware of this chick-fil-a controversy.

I was very offline this weekend, yet another wedding. And to be honest, this could be made up, this could not be real. And I wouldn't know because every made up drama now that happens around people boycotting these corporations, it sounds like an onion headline. It's just the most ridiculous thing you've ever heard of every single time. Yeah, and to the point of like, hold my an actually having conservative grifts that conservatives come back, we have conservative pillows. Like we've, we've gone all the way in already on that.

They're bad pillows, by the way. Those commercials are amazing. I know. But I know those are bad. The pillows are disappointed that you've tried out on my phone. No, it was pre-2016. No, no, no. It's pre-2016. Tony's not the interaction. He's like, I got to try it on what happened.

It was pre-2016. A family member was like, oh, I got these my pillows are really good. And I used to know, like, this thing sucks. Mike's right about that. It had, you can't say that what's his name, Lindell, you can't say that he hasn't already done the Brad Williams model. I'm going all in on this.

And I'm like, I've got a bunch of, in a armored vehicle made out of pillows, I'm going all in on like Tucker Carlson's my guide, Trump's my guy, please buy my pillows, anyone who agrees with it. And it's actually the perfect commodity to sell when you're constantly faced with people asking you, how do you sleep at night?

Yeah. Well, my pillow. Have you had a long day of just tearing down displays at a target? My pillow. Well, I'm going to go to the toilet.
