The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz XX
[0] You're listening to Draft King's Network.
[1] Now's a good time to remember where the story of tequila started.
[2] In 1795, the first tequila distillery was opened by the Cuervo family.
[3] And 229 years later, Cuervo is still going strong.
[4] Family owned from the start, same family, same land.
[5] Now's a good time to enjoy Cuervo.
[6] The tequila that invented tequila.
[7] Go to Quervo .com to shop tequila or visit a store near you.
[8] Quervo, now's a good time.

[11] Jersey City, New Jersey.
[12] Please drink responsibly.
[13] What's the matter with you?
[14] What?
[15] You come in here today.
[16] Yeah.
[17] And with everything going on in the world, you say to me, I still got my old -time Big East team, if you want it.
[18] Never got to it yesterday.
[19] Yeah, a lot of stuff to talk about.
[20] And, and you say to me, you just say to me with a giant smile in your face, because you No one is pleased more by your jokes than you are.
[21] Of course.
[22] Larry Gurra is what you say to me. It is a good name.
[23] It's a good name comedically to throw at the audience from 80s Royals baseball.
[24] I was listing 80s Royals baseball players yesterday, and it was a flurry, and it was good.
[25] And I got all the names I've wanted to get in.
[26] You lose Lucy and all of our young people.
[27] Jeremy, dorks out on all baseball things.
[28] He doesn't know who Larry Gura.
[29] Gura is.
[30] Larry Gura is a classic number two, number three starter for the Royals in the 80s.
[31] That guy, he might have a 4 .5 ERA, but he'd still get you 15 wins.
[32] That's who he is.
[33] Larry Gura.
[34] Do you want to do, Billy, do you want to do 90s Blue Jays?
[35] Because I really felt like we left a whole lot of stuff on the table yesterday talking about 90s Blue Jays.
[36] I don't want to force it if we get to 90s blue jays.
[37] You get to it, you know.
[38] Once he said Lloyd Mosby, though, like Lloyd Mosby.
[39] I ended the game.
[40] You didn't end the game because we could, I mean, Kelly Gruber's pretty good.
[41] Not bad.
[42] Rance Molinix.
[43] There's something about this particular.
[44] That's a good one.
[45] Thank you.
[46] This particular game, though, I don't need to know the name.
[47] If Stugatz is in his groove and he's playing it right, if it's just a funny sounding name, it hits for me. Not the same for young people, though.
[48] There's something happening here generationally.
[49] You do realize that you and Billy and Mike, you're the Danettes now, right?
[50] You're adult human beings.
[51] You're not children anymore laughing at all the same silly stuff.
[52] Lucy's got no time.
[53] The funny names don't do anything for her.
[54] You guys could be making up every single one of these names.
[55] I would have no idea.
[56] And I'm okay with that.
[57] I don't know a lot of the names that they were saying.
[58] I want to be a good ally here, but I don't know who you're talking.
[59] I know how to bring this to Lucy.
[60] Lucy, just start naming Iowa receivers from like 10 years ago.
[61] Oh, God, they weren't very good.
[62] Come on.
[63] It's not fun for you.
[64] Comante Martin Manley.
[65] Marvin McNutt.
[66] Darryl Johnson Giuliano It's fun right Let's see it It's fun I just realized that Billy's been Faking his way Through this game Since the beginning I thought this was the wheelhouse We all had Was 90s Not like 92 I mean I don't want A spoiler alert You guys are older than me So like I just I have like 20 years on me here But you've been Faking your way Through the most popular game On a case I know Like crime dog Fred McGriff John Oliver Like I know these names You know Those are good Yeah Those are great But you don't feel, you don't feel strong in this category.
[67] Matt Vanderbaird.
[68] It's a fun game.
[69] That's how you play the game right there.
[70] He's married to Laura.
[71] Lucy?
[72] Wow.
[73] We have, Lucy, this is the, has been for a long time here and everywhere throughout the world, the great connector of men, just being able to name random athletes from 30 and 40 years ago.
[74] If you want to play this game with us, you would be the historic first woman to correctly play this game with us.
[75] My brother's roommate, Greg.
[76] Greg's on the football team.
[77] Shout out Greg.
[78] He needs a last name.
[79] Shut out, Greg.
[80] I don't know Greg's last name.
[81] Greg.
[82] Like, I don't know who Ozzie Virgil is.
[83] Oh, that's a good one.
[84] It's a great one.
[85] That is a good one.
[86] But did he play for the Blue Jays?
[87] Yeah, it was a DH 1990.
[88] Braves, too, though, I think.
[89] I thought he was a white sock.
[90] Huh?
[91] Interesting.
[92] Larry Garrow once had 18 wins with a 4 .2 ERA.
[93] I mean, that's who he is.
[94] Go check out how Rick Helling one time had 20 wins.
[95] with an ERA over five.
[96] That name I know.
[97] This is the Dan Levatore show with the Stugats podcast.
[98] Today's episode is sponsored by Draft Kings.
[99] Stay tuned because you'll hear more about Draft Kings than all it has to offer throughout the show.
[100] Draft Kings, the crown is yours.
[101] I remember Stugats a long time ago at ESPN talking to somebody who was affiliated with one of my very early radio shows that I did Sunday morning.
[102] very early.
[103] I love that show.
[104] 7 a .m. Lonely show.
[105] Nobody wants that time slot, but I wanted it because it was on like 500 stations because nobody else wanted to broadcast it that hour on a Sunday.
[106] Many years later, I took that slot over with Mike Golich, Jr. I mean, how about that?
[107] Passing of the torch.
[108] It's a slot with a lot of reach.
[109] And when I was doing it in the morning at that time, I remember feeling very lonely talking to this person affiliated with the show.
[110] And you guys are going to recognize some of this because I, I was arguing so much with this person off air about how baseball was better than football, how much I enjoyed baseball more than football.
[111] He was ahead of the curve.
[112] He, uh, this was before football was even as popular as what it is now.
[113] It was something different then.
[114] I, right around then, I think American gladiators was doing a better number on television than football was, not too much longer after that.
[115] He also had a gambling problem.
[116] I lent him way too much money.
[117] And football will feed, will feed the attention of baseball was too slow.
[118] And that's something that happened to football with fantasy leagues and everything else.
[119] It exploded into, I only have to invest my one Sunday, 16 weeks, I can handle that, and then football exploded.
[120] But the reason I tell you this story is because recently, you know, I've been watching baseball all of last year.
[121] I really do love what baseball has become.
[122] They've fixed a lot of the problems.
[123] I still don't care about the All -Star game.
[124] However, having seen baseball go from the medicine of steroids to chicks love the long ball and home runs, home runs, home runs are all that matter.
[125] Paul Skeen's, thank you for making me fall in love again with the power arm.
[126] The Dwight Gooden, the one guy nobody can hit.
[127] These are so rare.
[128] Now, keep in mind, pitching is totally unnatural for the human body.
[129] All of them are going to break.
[130] Skeens will break, too, and it'll be unfortunate.
[131] But for now.
[132] But for now.
[133] Everyone except Nolan Ryan.
[134] That's correct.
[135] Billy, thank you, Stugats, for bringing it back to that.
[136] You're welcome.
[137] I want to get you to Nolan Ryan.
[138] Oh, I want to get to Nolan Ryan after seeing him walk out to the mound yesterday.
[139] I was, oh, I was chomping at the bits, champing at the bits.
[140] We've done this before.
[141] I don't remember what the answer was.
[142] I was ready for him.
[143] I was ready for the Ryan Express last night.
[144] When I saw him out there, I was actually screen recording my TV, my screen.
[145] I don't know how the kids do it these days, so I was just holding up my phone with video recording, and I was going to send it to you, and I was going to tell you I was waiting for him because I saw him a little slow, the Ryan Express, walking out to the mound.
[146] So I was waiting to see that pitch, and then I didn't get it because they gave it to Adrian Beltray to throw out that first pitch.
[147] But I was so ready to send you a video to tell you, I can foul tip this.
[148] Because that was the challenge.
[149] You know what?
[150] He can do that.
[151] Thank you.
[152] He can do anything that he sets his mind.
[153] He's such an incredible athlete that nothing could stop Billy Gill.
[154] Nothing.
[155] Nothing.
[156] Even if it's something from 16 years ago that he was a Division I athlete on.
[157] When are we going, I'd say this in the most loving way possible to whoever is responsible for this.
[158] When are we going to fix that microphone for you so that it stops jostling when you have to touch it, that one middle microphone?
[159] I fixed it.
[160] Okay.
[161] Well, he just has to sit down like a normal human being, but he wants to do this.
[162] McAfee thing where he's standing the whole show to show off his traps or whatever.
[163] His goal is here.
[164] We've been standing on this show for longer than that McAfee show.
[165] You guys did standing first?
[166] Oh, yeah.
[167] I've been standing in the back row of this show for like nine years.
[168] I stood in the corner of the Cleveland door.
[169] There was literally no chair.
[170] I had to stand.
[171] So that's how you learned how to do this.
[172] I'll miss those days.
[173] You used to not have a microphone.
[174] Well, Tony, I just supported you, man. I'm afraid to say that Billy is not.
[175] I wanted Tony was how dare you sir you're not supportive of Tony you said yesterday what do you mean how dare you you said yesterday if someone tells me not to come to something I'm not coming he's not a team player I was asked not to participate so I said you know what I won't participate Billy is not supporting the Tony show the Tony show is tomorrow today today today 7 p .m. today tonight presented by draft games Dano what is it what do you mean what is it it needs a new name what is that supposed to I mean.
[176] It's just Tony showing up.
[177] It's a Tony show.
[178] It's perfect.
[179] They're watching Back to the Future 2.
[180] It's perfect.
[181] We're not watching back to the future two.
[182] Oh, this one is just cosplay.
[183] No, this one is Back to the Future 2 themed as far as the movie poster or whatever because we're going back to the future.
[184] We're going to be playing retro PS2 games from back in the day that we used to play as kids.
[185] So we're going to be doing that.
[186] We're going to be doing a lightning bestball draft presented by Draft Kings, which is going to be exciting.
[187] There's a lot of stuff to do on the Tony show, but that's why it's the perfect name because we don't know what's going to happen until we actually do it.
[188] Stugatz, I've been a little frustrated because of how slowly we move as a company.
[189] Adam McKay does want to do something with Tony and Juju.
[190] This is not it.
[191] It's not the Tony show.
[192] No, this is not it, which isn't to say that this won't work.
[193] Tony's trying to, I don't know, how do you make bones in a business?
[194] Why is that an expression?
[195] I think it's calcium.
[196] You drink milk.
[197] You make your bones in a business.
[198] Tony's trying to make him.
[199] his bones in this business.
[200] And before he gets to out of McKay, he's got to create the Tony show pilot that soars into the sky and becomes something else later on.
[201] But what's it going to be, Tony, because I remember the first time you did the Tony show was just going to be sort of like the Truman Show, Jim Carrey, we're going to watch you sleep.
[202] And I'm like, you have to entertain the people.
[203] You need to do something for them.
[204] And entertain, we did.
[205] You did.
[206] For 27 hours, we entertained everybody.
[207] People loved it.
[208] People loved it.
[209] People watched us sleep.
[210] It was an incredible show.
[211] This one is the grown -up version.
[212] This is step two of the Tony show.
[213] We're going to be doing something different with different people, with different devices.
[214] It's very exciting.
[215] Making one's bones originated in organized crime.
[216] It's from the Godfather.
[217] It's basically the amount of people you kill, the more people you killed, the higher you went up in the family.
[218] So, yes, I understand what the making of bones is.
[219] I just don't understand the origin of why it is we're using bones to, is it because they're killing people?
[220] I'm in the company.
[221] So the more people you kill.
[222] Your body's made of bones.
[223] Okay, so it's not making your bodies in the business.
[224] It's the number of people you end so that all that's left of them is bones.
[225] Essentially.
[226] It's like your body count with hooking up.
[227] Yeah.
[228] Isn't that what the kids say these days?
[229] What's your body count?
[230] You said that a little aggressively.
[231] Are you feeling yourself after this sex advice person that was on with us?
[232] Are you feeling yourself?
[233] That interview made me uncomfortable.
[234] Just me personally.
[235] Like, it was a good interview, but I just didn't love because everyone's like asking for a friend and I was the friend.
[236] I have learned Stugats something about Lucy and Jessica's friendship that delights me because both of them have found Miami as it is not as warm as the temperature when you're talking about the people.
[237] The people are different.
[238] The people are the people.
[239] Thank you, Stugat's for offering nothing but noise.
[240] Miami is Miami.
[241] He is right about that.
[242] Yes, he is right.
[243] It's indisputable.
[244] The people are the people.
[245] But Lucy and Jessica have found Miami's people to be less than warm.
[246] So I was delighted to hear that Jessica has found a reliable person that she trusts to take care of Willow when she's out of town.
[247] Unfortunately, that person is Lucy who cannot manage this situation at all.
[248] She's having a great deal of trouble with a disrespectful, spoiled, and entitled to Willow.
[249] Do not speak about her that way.
[250] That is my best friend you're talking about.
[251] Willow or Lucy?
[252] I mean, it's tough because she's Lucy.
[253] She's Lucy.
[254] Lucy normally rents a dog for a day.
[255] Jessica, go sit in the penalty box for two minutes.
[256] Go sit in the penalty box for two minutes.
[257] Yeah, you said Lucy instead of Jessica.
[258] Get out of here.
[259] I just want someone to remember my name.
[260] I mean, I was just saying that she normally rents a dog for a day.
[261] It's different when you have to have that thing over your house 24 -7.
[262] This is how I feel about the new responsibility.
[263] This is exactly when people are surprised that I'm good with children.
[264] And I'm like, I love renting them.
[265] It's the ownership part that's a problem for me in terms of responsibility.
[266] I love you.
[267] Don't have kids.
[268] Please.
[269] Please.
[270] It's a lot.
[271] Don't.
[272] Be content with being a godfather.
[273] Yeah.
[274] That's good.
[275] Collect your bones as the godfather.
[276] I've collected so many bones.
[277] I am godfather to so many people.
[278] You guys were mentioning the mafia.
[279] This is how my friends extort me because they know I have money.
[280] Hey, Dan, you want to be the god godfather?
[281] In the NFL, there is no margin for error.
[282] One mistake can change the outcome of the game.

[293] Don Lebertart.
[294] Did you guys see Gilbert Arenas' assessment of Zion Williamson?
[295] Agent Zero.
[296] Stugats.
[297] Did you answer my question there or no?
[298] No. Okay.
[299] This is the Don Lebetar show with the Stugats.
[300] Even though you're officially not, I tell Rachel and Emma all the time you are their godfather.
[301] They're waiting for a check.
[302] I mean, anything.
[303] Venmo, something.
[304] It's funny.
[305] So Lucy's got.
[306] no control of the situation.
[307] Okay, you're exaggerating.
[308] Willow is...
[309] Lucy, I'm not exaggerating.
[310] You told me she dragged you.
[311] Lucy?
[312] You are not there.
[313] Lucy, you told me she dragged you to an ice cream store and you couldn't get her to stop.
[314] You told me that.
[315] Several times.
[316] And it's super cute, though.
[317] So here is the situation with Willow.
[318] She is a great dog.
[319] She really is.
[320] And I wouldn't lie about that, because I'm honest.
[321] Like my dog, Kinnick at my dad's house, not a great dog.
[322] Love him.
[323] He bit my grandma.
[324] So not the best dog.
[325] That's okay.
[326] She's cool.
[327] He's cool.
[328] I'm still a big fan.
[329] But Willow, great dog.
[330] She's very well behaved.
[331] But she can tell that I am like not an alpha.
[332] Like she can tell that I'm not.
[333] She doesn't, she doesn't respect me. I thought I said that.
[334] I think you did it in a way that was disrespectful to Willow and it should have been disrespectful to me. Yeah, you should have been more demeaning toward Lucy.
[335] Yeah, you should have, because I'm not an alpha.
[336] And Willow doesn't respect me, and she shouldn't respect me. And so she thinks she can get away with a lot of stuff.
[337] And most of it is just every time we go for a walk, she's super excited.
[338] She'll get on her little, like, she's pranced.
[339] And I'm like, yeah, she's got all this energy.
[340] That's great.
[341] And then she immediately takes me to this ice cream shop and just parks it.
[342] Like, we'll just sit there.
[343] It's 105 degrees outside.
[344] And I am using all my strength to pull Willow to get her to move because she will not leave this ice cream shop.
[345] And most of the time, we go for a walk show in the morning.
[346] So it's like 7 a .m. And she is just stuck outside this ice cream shop.
[347] And people walk by, and it's kind of embarrassing because I'm like having to drag her.
[348] And they're like, ha, looks like somebody doesn't want to leave.
[349] And I'm like, she just wants the ice cream.
[350] She just wants it.
[351] And she's good.
[352] I bought it for her.
[353] Of course.
[354] Well, that's why she does it.
[355] And that's why she doesn't respect you.
[356] And I'll do it again.
[357] And that's why you will never have control of this dog.
[358] And the pup cup is clearly an addiction.
[359] There's always that guy out there that when that happens, the dog is walking you, he says, or she says, who's walking who?
[360] Happens all the time.
[361] That's happened multiple times.
[362] It's like the funny dad joke, but it's usually like 100 degrees out, and I just want to go inside, and I feel like I'm going to pass out, so they'll hit me with like, who's walking you?
[363] And I'm like, shut up!
[364] Yeah.
[365] It's one of the great illusions, dog ownership, that you own them and you're not in their service, but my dog has never picked up my shit.
[366] that's a good point do you shit on the street that'd be weird yeah sidewalk it would be weird which part the shitting on the street or the dog picking it up all of it yeah it would be weird that's good commentary I don't think dogs to tie the baggies Dan I think that's part of the problem it's hard because they have that thumb thing but it's like halfway up their arm for whatever reason why do they have that there I thought it was like an elbow really you know what's funny about this this is i just had this conversation okay dog thumbs in the middle of their forum because like what a coincidence no but elbows what do you call somebody an elbow uh do you call it an elbow or a knee when a wart hog a wart hog has this is funny so because the animal is being preyed on in the animal kingdom over time the survival evolution of the animal makes it so its head and shoulders and neck are super thick to not get bitten in an exposed area.
[367] And the wart hog has to to eat.
[368] It sort of puts down its feet so that it is eating on what you would call.
[369] Either it's elbows or its knees.
[370] But is it the elbows?
[371] Because the wardhog's not walking on two legs.
[372] Those are all legs.
[373] So they all have to be knees, correct?
[374] This is the classic what a dog wear jeans, the four -leg way or the two -leg way.
[375] Yeah.
[376] The classic.
[377] It's a classic.
[378] If a dog would wear jeans, how would it wear the jeans?
[379] It is.
[380] How would it wear the jeans or the four front legs?
[381] Mm -hmm.
[382] Since the dawn of mankind.
[383] Tonight on the Tony show, presented by Draftings.
[384] The dawn of dog kinds to guts.
[385] That's a fun.
[386] Yeah.
[387] People are people.
[388] It's okay.
[389] You've never thought about it, Dan?
[390] Yeah.
[391] How a dog would wear pants?
[392] I have not, because a dog would clearly have to shorten the pants to walk the way a dog always has.
[393] A dog walking on.
[394] Thank you.
[395] Diagram on the screen right now.
[396] Would it wear them like all on all fours or would it wear it like hind, you know, with the butt sticking out with the little tail?
[397] Go through all your material for tonight now.
[398] I feel like people put pants on their dogs though.
[399] Like it's a thing that like when you have those like little floofy dogs, people like to dress them up.
[400] One time my dog would not stop peeing everywhere so we put a diaper on, which I feel like it's kind of like pants.
[401] And it was not.
[402] Yeah, it wasn't the bottom.
[403] So I feel like the pants have to go on the back, right?
[404] You would think.
[405] Well, I've never asked dogs so we don't know.
[406] which they prefer.
[407] This is one of your rental dogs, though, right?
[408] No, this was my actual dog.
[409] It was my little dog.
[410] Her name was happy, and she was the meanest dog ever.
[411] What's going on with your rental dogs?
[412] What's the latest with this good work you've been doing?
[413] I haven't been doing it much lately.
[414] Not because I'm a bad person, but because I'm busy.
[415] The Miami Shelter was overflowing a few weeks ago, so they were actually really, really desperate for people to come, take dogs out.
[416] Ideally, adopt the dogs.
[417] It's really hot outside.
[418] People are dumping their dogs left and right, which is really, really messed up.
[419] And if you do that, and you're a bad person, I'm going to find you, and I'm going to make you feel really bad about it.
[420] But you can still go do the rent -a dog, which is not the name of the program, but go do a Pawvenger where you get to take a dog out for a day.
[421] It's a free thing to do.
[422] It's a super awesome program.
[423] There's very little you need to do to sign up, which is a little scary, but honestly, it's no barrier to entry.
[424] That's exactly what we want.
[425] So you just go to their website, search up Miami -Dade Shelter, Pawvenger, then you type in your little name and you say, I'll pick this dog up at this time, then, and then you go and then give you a cute little binder and you scroll through and you get to pick whatever dog you want to take out.
[426] I would agree with you, and I am somebody who rescued a dog who was so wild that it was like having a wild horse in the home for a very long time because what has happened in South Florida, and there are a lot of dogs just that people can't afford.
[427] anymore and they just dump them either in the Everglades or the Redlands area and so those dogs live essentially like wild dogs until someone picks them up or they die of starvation because they can't make it in the wild and they got me to thinking Stugat about the video that we just saw here locally what desperation will look like when you don't have the money to afford a dog and you have to do something that that's that kind of cruel.
[428] When I, forgive me for the wandering on this, but Gopammedica, one of the things that I noticed in the chaos of what that experience was, Stugats, is that the ticket prices weren't in any way affordable, okay?
[429] So, so the least expensive ticket to get in was $2 ,100.
[430] Okay.
[431] The average price is $4 ,000 to that game.
[432] So there were 27 arrests made and there were 7 ,000 extra people inside.
[433] the stadium because it's a giant, giant thing.
[434] And the passion around soccer, I mean, I know we have it with football, but I don't really think that America understands how the rest of the world links up for its identity with its country's soccer team.
[435] So when desperate people can't afford things, they might overrun security.
[436] Now, I'm not obviously exonerating anybody for this kind of lunacy you should pay.
[437] But when we're living in America where you see that the Republican party is actively trying to just change all the rules, don't like them, so I'm just going to change them all.
[438] These laws don't apply to me. I'm not going to prison immunity so that the party of money can continue to empower money and create a situation where we have even more desperation than we have now and it's not as cute as a soccer game now it's for food or for water or for money what's it going to look like when it's not as cute as a soccer game and what you actually have is the manifestation of the prophecy of fear that they're promising you which is the desperate brown and black people are going to take all of your shit and we need to build a wall go get your guns but also some people are just bad dog owners like it's not money they just don't realize it's a lot of responsibility so they just dump their dogs I don't think they got dropped in the Everglades either.
[439] I haven't seen too many Maltises.
[440] Well, if they do, they probably get eaten by pythons.
[441] So I would say...
[442] Piedon, for sure, get dropped off in the Evergates.
[443] That's true.
[444] And turtles.
[445] People don't realize how long turtles live and how big turtles get.
[446] Turtles are a pain in the ass.
[447] Goldfish, too.
[448] They get huge in the wild.
[449] Really?
[450] A lot of homeless dogs in Hialea.
[451] I mean, that's where I got Finney.
[452] There were a ton of homeless dogs.
[453] I'm serious.
[454] They're just roaming around Hialeah.
[455] I mean, that's where I got Phinney.
[456] You're just walking around Hialia, picking up dogs?
[457] I'm just telling you, there's someone who does this for a living.
[458] that I know, and that's where I adopted Finney from, and they had a bunch of dogs from Hiaia.
[459] That's all I'm saying.
[460] Not the Everglades.
[461] Do you guys follow that guy on TikTok who goes into the Everglades, and then he goes in with his bare feet?
[462] He never wears shoes.
[463] And then he just picks up snakes and goes, yoink.
[464] It's the craziest thing I've ever seen.
[465] This guy lives life on the edge.
[466] To answer your question, Dan, the thought of that, the look of that, it's going to be hard for people to watch.
[467] It's going to be tough.
[468] It's going to be difficult.
[469] But I understand the desperation when you need to feed yourself and feed your family.
[470] Okay?
[471] If you can't afford a ticket to a soccer game, you don't need to go to such extreme measures to try to get yourself into a soccer game.
[472] Food, I understand.
[473] Water, I understand.
[474] Money, I understand.
[475] A soccer game?
[476] Come on.
[477] Totally true.
[478] I'm just giving you the example of when you really care about something and you want it and you can't afford it.
[479] Yep.
[480] You haven't been desperate about money in a long time, and it doesn't make you want it all the more.
[481] What happens when it's a fight over the stuff that makes us all allowed to live?
[482] It's what's going to happen with closed borders.
[483] You don't want people from other countries in here because you have the stuff.
[484] You have the stuff and you don't want to share it.
[485] What do you think it's going to look like?
[486] It's what's being fomented this week, Stugat, at this carnival of lunacy that is passing for some sort of sanity.
[487] as again, I tell you, they're trying to change all the rules of democracy so that they don't apply to the people who are there and Rudy Giuliani can fall down all the time until he dies instead of just gets old, taking stuff from people so he can have it, and other people who don't look like him can't.
[488] Like that's what we're doing.
[489] It's the present exercise.
[490] This is where we've gotten, and it's the desperate people are now also in the unhappy, angry, poor, and white side blaming Biden for it.
[491] Blame, blaming the, and it's not, it's not Biden, it's that rich companies have bought all of these people.
[492] They're all bought, all of them.
[493] Every one of them is bought.
[494] They're so interested in power.
[495] And so, of course, you're right that they shouldn't do that for a soccer game, but it's not just soccer tickets that are unaffordable.
[496] A cup of coffee is not affordable anymore.
[497] You can't buy a home in this city.
[498] Like, nobody can buy property in the city anymore unless you're hugely rich, not even.
[499] And what you're saying, Hyaliyah, which I keep saying to people, I can't believe it's the fifth least affordable housing market in the United States.
[500] My father grew up there.
[501] That's just factories and mud.
[502] That's not Miami.
[503] That's something that pretends to be Miami.
[504] And at its core, has the most Hispanic poverty stuff that you will find anywhere in Miami, including dogs roaming around in the street like Finney.
[505] How did you get Finney and Hyalia?
[506] I don't believe that.
[507] I went to a place and planted.
[508] that, you know, they find homeless dogs and I adopted Finnegan.
[509] I'm skeptical about that.
[510] Sounds like you went to a place that steals dogs.
[511] That's where I live.
[512] That's not what I did.
[513] They do a very nice thing.
[514] They give the dogs a home until an owner comes in and picks the dog.
[515] I mean...
[516] You ever think about how crazy it is that we have a town down here just called plantation and we have no issue with it?
[517] First time I said that to Dominique, he's like, where do you live?
[518] I'm like in plantation.
[519] He looked at me and I was like, oh.
[520] Yeah, I just tell people Fort Lauderdale.
[521] It's still the Masters.
[522] I think it's time to change that.
[523] I'm going to start a petition.
[524] Is Finney ever react, like, if someone says Rufus or something, and you're like, why does he respond to that name?
[525] And it's because Finney was dog -napped.
[526] No, no. Not that I can recall, at least.
[527] I do the same thing, by the way.
[528] Even up in Parkland, I say I'm from Fort Lauderdale.
[529] It's weird.
[530] I don't know why.
[531] Well, but they're doing it for a different reason.
[532] I understand why they're doing it.
[533] I'm just saying, I live in Parkland.
[534] I still say Fort Lauderdale.
[535] That's because you can't help yourself from lying at every point when you don't need to.
[536] People don't know where Parkland is.
[537] They don't know Coral Springs.
[538] They know Fort Lauderdale.
[539] If I'm speaking to someone from Florida, then I might tell them Parkland if I were you.
[540] But if I'm speaking to someone who's not from Florida, it's Fort Lauderdale.
[541] And if I'm speaking to someone where I'm not sure that they're even going to know Fort Lauderdale, then I'm just from Miami.
[542] Thank you.
[543] That's a tell.
[544] Someone says I'm from South Florida.
[545] You know they're from Broward.
[546] Yeah, that's true.
[547] Not you just say Miami.
[548] You're exactly right.
[549] That is true, isn't it?
[550] We want people to think it's Miami.
[551] You want the association.
[552] I think Boca, too.
[553] Like, if you're up there, you'll say South Florida.
[554] If you say Boka, I assume you're 80.
[555] Or Jewish.
[556] Put it on the poll at Levitard show.
[557] If someone says they're from Boka, do you assume they're 80?
[558] Do you guys know what Bokar Raton means?
[559] Any of you in the room who aren't Hispanic?
[560] Well, I'm Hispanic, so I'm not going to answer the question.
[561] But you do know?
[562] You do know.
[563] Rat's mouth, right?
[564] You've ruined the game.
[565] Spoiler.
[566] The whole game.
[567] Well, you guys wanted to flex.
[568] for being white.
[569] I know something in Spanish, guys.
[570] I'm Cuban.
[571] There's so many jokes, though.

[587] Don Lebertard.
[588] We love you.
[589] We've got you.
[590] We've all got each other.
[591] Let's go right now.
[592] Stugats.
[593] One, two, three, Brett.
[594] One, two, three.
[595] Brett.
[596] This is the Don Lebertar show with a Stugats.
[597] David Sampson of nothing personal is going to join us here in a little while.
[598] But there appear to be a couple of things that people think are factually incorrect about what it is that we're talking about.
[599] One of the things that you guys said is that dogs don't get dropped off in the Everglades because, as Tony said, a Maltese isn't going to be dropped off in the Everglades.
[600] But if you don't care about an animal enough to dump it off in the Redlands because it will probably die, you're not going a whole lot further to just dump it in a swamp because you don't want the responsibility or the cost any more in your life.
[601] I am always guilty around here, Stuggets.
[602] The audience gets very upset with me because I think Miami and South Florida have an assortment of things that the rest of the United States does not have, things that are unique to Miami.
[603] Right before I left, I was telling all of the room, I don't believe a lot of places in the country have what we do at 11 and at space, the clubs that stay up all night.
[604] And you guys gave me a number of cities that do have all night things.
[605] And I assure you those cities aren't filled with thousands of people doing that all night on drugs.
[606] That's only happening here and Vegas, and I don't think anywhere else in the United States, where you gave me some shitty cities there that stay up all night or have certain places.
[607] How dare you call Minneapolis a shitty city, Dan?
[608] It's just absolutely not something that's happening over the United States where you've got all over thousands of people at 6 a .m. spilling out of a club on drugs.
[609] New Orleans.
[610] Yes, yes.
[611] That's a good one.
[612] New York, yeah.
[613] I don't know if, I don't actually.
[614] Definitely, I've done it.
[615] I don't know if New Orleans has a lot of, does New Orleans stay up all night with a place that's got thousands of people in it?
[616] I guess Bourbon Street would be that.
[617] Regardless, we do have something in the Everglades that I don't believe happens anywhere in the United States, which is we have a snake problem.
[618] It's a giant snake problem so much that there are hunters who go out there and get paid for just eliminating some of the snakes that should.
[619] should not be in the Everglades.
[620] And Lucy, what is this video that we're watching now that you provided because you just learned about this the other day?
[621] So this is Fishing Garrett.
[622] I talked about him a little bit in the last segment.
[623] He is based here, I believe, somewhere in South Florida, but I don't know what South Florida means after all you guys just said.
[624] So whatever, in this general vicinity.
[625] And his whole thing is that he, like, is trying to find a 20 -foot python.
[626] So this crazy -ass guy just goes in the Everglades barefoot all the time looking for these pythons.
[627] And then we'll just stick his hand into the water, pick up the snake and go, yoink.
[628] So if there's a way that we could play this with the sound, because he'll tell you like what animals are there and you'll hear him yonk.
[629] Well, why don't we just get him as a guest to talk about some of this stuff?
[630] Because South Florida has a number of these unusual people.
[631] I met one of them who has to, is it Burmese pythons, has to kill them and just puts a bullet in their head.
[632] Yeah.
[633] They actually sell licenses where you can go out and get a license and go kill these pythons because they're so invasive.
[634] They kill all the other animals.
[635] Like there's a lot of small rodents.
[636] I think Ron has talked about it.
[637] Small rodents, even up to things like mid -size that the pythons just kill because there's so many of them.
[638] I feel like that's taking the easy path, just putting a bullet in its head.
[639] I mean, come on.
[640] Catch the snake.
[641] You're a snake catcher.
[642] Don't bring a gun.
[643] I mean, the snake doesn't have a gun.
[644] Seriously, it's cheating.
[645] Stugats, you called 911 on a frog.
[646] I did, but I'm not, listen, I don't do this for a limit.
[647] I know, but you can't.
[648] I'm not catching fraud for a living.
[649] You can't be the Monday morning quarterback on how to kill a snake when you called 911 911 on a fraud.
[650] But I'm seeing all these snake hunters going into the Everglades and they're doing it with their hands.
[651] This guy's bringing a gun.
[652] It's cheating.
[653] I'd be upset.
[654] The woman also catches them with her.
[655] hands and puts a bullet in their head.
[656] After she catches him.
[657] Yes.
[658] That's what I'm saying.
[659] You don't just walk up to a snake with a gun and shoot it.
[660] I mean...
[661] You call 911.
[662] So the cops can come and shoot it.
[663] It's cheating.
[664] Billy, I do want to.
[665] I don't want this to be another thing that we talk about and don't do, okay?
[666] Because I was told upon return from Edmonton that we had a number of different ways and angles to get a billboard in Edmonton.
[667] We thought, Amin said, I've got contacts.
[668] You guys are amateurs.
[669] Edmonton shut us down from every angle.
[670] We put up a couple of billboards in South Florida that had no impact whatsoever.
[671] And I was told we were very close.
[672] We almost executed the joke of me seeing a billboard in Johannesburg on my way from the airport because Metal Arc put one there just for me, just for me to see in the airport.
[673] I was told we were very close to executing that joke, but didn't execute that one either.
[674] What if you were looking the other way and didn't see it?
[675] I think they would have probably had to get my wife involved.
[676] There probably would have been some sort of, I wouldn't have.
[677] You're like, oh, look at this.
[678] A little inside job.
[679] I think the practical joke would have involved some more planning, but maybe not with the way Metal Arc does it.
[680] Maybe Metal Arc thinks that all of the acreage I would have just had to be focused.
[681] And I'd be like, why is there a Connor McDavid billboard in Johannesburg?
[682] He'll see it.
[683] The way we do it, the way we communicate around here.
[684] But I want to get you in front of Nolan Ryan so that you guys understand how you consistently underestimate how much better these people are.
[685] He's 77 years old.
[686] I know.
[687] You mentioned that before.
[688] And you are not the athlete that you think hitting a curveball.
[689] He barely could walk out to the mound yesterday.
[690] Okay.
[691] And you are not the athlete that you think you are.
[692] I believe.
[693] Now, I may have this wrong, but I want to execute it.
[694] Instead of just talking about it, I want, and Nolan Ryan is not going to come.
[695] come here, I want to get you to wherever Nolan Ryan is and see if you really can hit what you think you can hit.
[696] Because, again, the power arms, Stugat's.
[697] To me, it's the best thing in the sport.
[698] It's the most unique thing in the sport.
[699] Name the guy Stugat's all time that have really been fallen in love with because they just throw harder than everybody else.
[700] It's not because because it's not just Nolan Ryan, it's all of the closers throughout time that used to come in for an inning and throw a hundred miles an hour and make us confused how Mariano Rivera could do it, not throwing a hundred miles an hour.
[701] You know, Paul Skeens last night, wasn't the rookie who was throwing the hardest in the All -Star game.
[702] Mason Miller, the closer for the A's, through a pitch 103 .6 miles per hour.
[703] It's insane.
[704] He's unhittable and nobody knows who he is.
[705] I think Stugats knew that he wasn't a Metalark employee, though.
[706] I did.
[707] I got that one right.
[708] Yeah, congratulations.
[709] Stugant, I've told the story before of, you know, Mike Lowell, World Series MVP, saying what the difference between 92 and 96 is, 92 and 96, where it's like 92, okay, I'm okay, okay, 96.
[710] Whoa, whoa, now make it 104.
[711] Right.
[712] It's crazy.
[713] It's crazy.
[714] You're talking about what you're yearning for is the goose gossage, right?
[715] the guy who just comes in and gives you 92 right down the middle.
[716] I mean...
[717] Jeremy, I'm not yearning for 92 down the middle.
[718] I'm yearning for...
[719] But back then, that was it.
[720] That was it.
[721] Go look up for me, Goose Gossage famously threw out his back sneezing, because physically that's what he looked like.
[722] Like Sammy Sosa.
[723] He looked like somebody who should throw out their back sneezing because the act of a sneeze, not even his formidable back, could take all the power coming from inside his body and handle the sneeze.
[724] The back was going to break.
[725] go and look up how hard he was throwing at his maximum because he was a flamethrower.
[726] And my guess is that he's 12 miles an hour slower throwing a fastball than Skeen.
[727] I just remember how impressed I was when Matt Lindstrom threw like 94.
[728] I was like, it's the best.
[729] Calling my friends on like a, hey, you see this guy, Matt Lindstrom?
[730] Like 96 he hit last night.
[731] And everyone hit him too.
[732] Like he had an ERA before the entire time.
[733] Everyone could hit him.
[734] I thought Lindstrom got even higher into the 90s.
[735] He might have.
[736] Do you think I have this wrong, though, on Billy, how do you feel about the power arm?
[737] Goose Gossage on the Hall of Fame website says he had a 100 -mile -per -hour fastball.
[738] But I feel like that was also at the times.
[739] It was like, well, that looked like as 100.
[740] Put that down.
[741] This says he threw 103 -mile -an -hour fastball during the 1978 All -Star game.
[742] I don't see that happening.
[743] He didn't do it.
[744] And who was it?
[745] Babe Ruth hit a ball like 6 ,000 feet?
[746] Okay, please, get out of here.
[747] Maybe I've got it wrong, Stugats.
[748] I did not think that Gus Gossage threw 103 miles an hour.
[749] But maybe I simply have it wrong because I thought that what it is that we're watching right now, that outside of Nolan Ryan and, hell, and who, Orlando Hernandez, or what, is it, no, it's not Orlando.
[750] El Duket.
[751] No, it's not El Ducke.
[752] Kayrod?
[753] Francisco.
[754] No, I'm going to forget.
[755] It's going to be...
[756] Leone.
[757] No, none of these people throw 100 miles an hour.
[758] Not even close.
[759] Who is the...
[760] Michael Teherra.
[761] I'm sorry, Eraldus Chapman.
[762] Ah, there he is.
[763] We got there, we keep talking.
[764] Just looking for a cue in.
[765] You guys were just throwing for...
[766] Hey, Fernandez.
[767] Hey, Hernandez.
[768] I had a Rodriguez in there.
[769] Yeah.
[770] I'm getting self -conscious about this.
[771] Let me ask you this, based on what it is that just happened in the last segment.
[772] How should I handle as a last...
[773] and show the way I say Copa America because I used to get annoyed on television all the time when the news people were doing English and then to show me they knew Spanish they would go Los Sandanistas and I mean like say it in English Copa America how am I supposed to say that without sounding like a gringo?
[774] Just like you did right there Copa America no but people notice and say why is he fucked America you want to say like that that sounds a starchy dan you're not a starchy guy no one cares just say Super Bowl 50 days to the NFL how about that crazy you excited 50 days until the NFL oh my god i wanted to talk about baseball you're going to do it the same way that my uh the person who had a gambling problem did it to me in the 30s by pulling me off of baseball to talk about football what is considered we were having this discussion um out the bullpen area here what is considered how hard do you have to throw to be a crafty pitcher because i maintain you cannot be a crafty pitcher if you're throwing in the 90s you have to be a guy who's mid -80s, 85, 86, you top out at 87?
[775] There's one guy in the big leagues right now who throws in the 80s.
[776] 91 can be crafty, Steggats.
[777] 91?
[778] I think you're topping out at the very hardest pitch you've ever thrown in your life is 93.
