[Dan Le Batard]

This is the Dan Levator show with the Stugach Podcast.

[Chris Cote]

I want to get to Stugatz's Travels. He told us before leaving that he was partaking in Operation Blooming Onion. I don't know what that was exactly. It was going to Australia on a flight that he was complaining about. All he told me when I told him Sydney, Australia is a place that I could live, he was saying too far away. I do not like flights that are 16 hours. Basically all he told me about his travels is how little he enjoyed the flight there and the flight back.

[Billy Gil]

I mean, it's a long flight. It's 18 hours. Then, you know, you get off in New Zealand and you wait an hour or so and then you take a three hour bird over to Sydney, Australia. And I got to tell you, Dan, once you've made the flight from the United States to New Zealand or Australia, you laugh at all other flights. I mean, I get on a flight now from LA to Miami. I laugh the entire five hours. I do my ha. Five hours. Get out of here. I just spent 18 hours on a bird. But Australia is great and everyone should try to get there once in their lifetime. I know Dan said he wants to live there. I would not live.

[Chris Cote]

I didn't want him to live there. I'm saying I said it. I said, I said I could live there. It's one of the cities that I've been to that are foreign, that I could live in.

[Dan Le Batard]

But why would you say that if you had no interest in it?

[Chris Cote]

Only because having been there, there are very few places that I visit that I say that of.

[David Samson]

There are versus Wood. Is that big difference?

[Chris Cote]

Yes. Could versus would.

[David Samson]

It's the same.

[Billy Gil]

One of the things that happened to me.

[Chris Cote]

Not the same.

[Billy Gil]

Well, it is the same, yes.

[Mike Ryan]

It's an odd distinction to make of like who I would say I would live there.

[Dan Le Batard]

You literally could live anywhere. You wouldn't just die from living in Raleigh.

[Chris Cote]

I could live there. I would not live there. Like, which part of this are you guys not understanding that I could see myself living there and also I would not live there.

[Billy Gil]

Well, then you can't see yourself living there.

[Dan Le Batard]

Would you just die?

[David Samson]

I mean, you'd get off the 18 hours and just plots right there.

[Chris Cote]

Which part of this are you guys not understanding?

[Dan Le Batard]

We're all concerned. If it's all of us.

[Billy Gil]

You want to live there or not?

[Dan Le Batard]

I mean, dango.

[Chris Cote]

No, I don't want to live there, but I could.

[Greg Cote]

Yeah, that's a disconnect for me.

[Mike Ryan]

What other places are on this list of the.

[Greg Cote]

That's a great question.

[Billy Gil]

I see yourself living there, but you would never live there.

[Chris Cote]

London.

[Dan Le Batard]

You could or you would live.

[Billy Gil]

You could see yourself living in London.

[Chris Cote]

I could, but I would not.

[Billy Gil]

That place makes me sad.

[David Samson]

You have to look, right? It's very dangerous.

[Mike Ryan]

Are there any places you would but couldn't see yourself?

[David Samson]

Exactly.

[Greg Cote]

Yeah. The places that you would but couldn't.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah, that's a good question.

[Chris Cote]

I haven't finished the other list yet. I haven't. I thought you guys wanted more Than.

[Greg Cote]

Yeah, but it's gonna help us get the whole thing because I think there's still like a disconnect on the Costa Rica.

[David Samson]

Is he gonna say, I would live on Mars?

[Greg Cote]

I couldn't.

[David Samson]

But you can't.

[Greg Cote]

Well, I wouldn't either.

[Billy Gil]

It's a good one.

[David Samson]

I wouldn't either.

[Billy Gil]

I can't even see myself living on Mars.

[David Samson]

Cannot.

[Greg Cote]

But I would do so poorly there.

[Chris Cote]

All people would. It's not inhabitable in any real way, no matter what Elon Musk thinks about what he's going to do to Earth so that him and his seven friends that are billionaires could live there. Incidentally, by the way, I'm curious about this. In all of the Elon Musk talk that there is, does. Does anyone think it particularly despic that the world's richest man would make it so difficult for the mothers of his children to get any money from him? Like in terms of despicable, there's a list of things that we can assign to Elon Musk that are despicable, but women who have had his babies, that he therefore, after that, doesn't actually want to give any money. Even though money doesn't mean anything to him, given the amount he has.

[David Samson]

Do you want a top 10 list of athletes and actors and rich people who don't take care of kids after impregnating women?

[Chris Cote]

Understood. But he's doing this a lot with a lot of women. And I like that. And all those. All those athletes are not as rich as Elon Musk.

[Greg Cote]

What is it? It's over the numbers. Over 12. Right. And occasionally some of these things spill into social media and then it's usually an effective move because Elon Musk replies and says to the world and the person tweeting at them or posting at them. I guess that's what it's called these days. Exactly how much money he's going to be giving them. Yeah, these NDAs probably gotta be pretty fascinating.

[David Samson]

I'm a Dick Van Patten guy. I think eight is enough.

[Mike Ryan]

I didn't know where that was going.

[Greg Cote]

Eight is enough.

[David Samson]

I think he should have stopped at eight. And there's a way you can stop it. You just get snipped, clipped. It's one way you're free to roam the country. Which Elon Musk.

[Billy Gil]

Oh.

[Chris Cote]

But I don't think these are mistakes.

[Greg Cote]

No. He's big on repopulating the.

[Chris Cote]

I think he wants his bloodline out there.

[David Samson]

But then why wouldn't he give money to support the kids?

[Chris Cote]

That part is a bit Cruel to me.

[Mike Ryan]

Gotta wanna earn.

[Dan Le Batard]

Well, he could, but he wouldn't.

[Billy Gil]

Pull yourself up by the bootstra lessons.

[Greg Cote]

He does, but sometimes people aren't satisfied with it. I don't know. It seems as though from what I've deduced on social media behavior, that he is paying for these children. Sometimes the means in which some of these mothers need to go about doing it are really bad optics.

[David Samson]

That's really the point to listen to, is there's a difference between supporting people. There's like Warren Buffett. He doesn't plan on giving any of his estate to any of his heirs. None of it. You'd think growing up in Warren's house, hey, I got a good shot here. I'm gonna be loaded. There's a bunch of rich people who decide that they're gonna let their kids do it the hard way, the way they had to do it.

[Billy Gil]

Bill Gates.

[David Samson]

So Elon Musk. Why can't he just have enough. Give enough money for them not to would live on the street. They could live in a mansion, but they can live in a tv.

[Chris Cote]

Because it's an asshole's move, that's why. Because you loved these women at one time and they are the mother of your children.

[Greg Cote]

Oh, I think you're making an awfully big assumption there. Like maybe some of them, but like a lot of these, you cared about.

[Chris Cote]

Them enough to procreate with them and have whatever that relationship entails after that. And then you're not willing to do very. You're willing to Pay more in NDAs than you are in child support.

[Greg Cote]

Well, the nature of some of these things seem pretty transactional. Like he is for whatever reason, really on the. On the train that we gotta repopulate the earth.

[Mike Ryan]

He's not a charmer.

[Billy Gil]

No.

[Greg Cote]

Like, I know he was maybe Grimes. There was some romance there. But again, these NDAs are pretty airtight. But a lot of these. That doesn't seem like there's a lot of romance. It seems like as far as the public knows, like three DMs that we got to see.

[David Samson]

But is there romance with Hill the Dolphins player? Is there romance there when he's having a bunch of kids with a bunch of people?

[Greg Cote]

I can't.

[David Samson]

Anthony Edwards. I think we don't know.

[Billy Gil]

We're not there.

[David Samson]

Yeah. Why do we need romance?

[Greg Cote]

I don't know. With.

[Chris Cote]

I was not saying romance. First of all, I did mistakenly say love. And in some of these instances is. There may not be love.

[Billy Gil]

But if you're talking about an obligation.

[Chris Cote]

I'm just Talking about if money to you is nothing other than toilet paper because it's not real, you have more than anyone in the world. I'm guessing that all of these women are not being unspeakably unreasonable about what it is that they think that his child might deserve in terms of support, given that he decided to have that child.

[David Samson]

It's disappointing. You're making us defend musk. But I have to at this point because all of the extortion, all of the examples where people would just ask for amounts that are just not reasonable, just because you can afford something doesn't mean you should afford something.

[Greg Cote]

So the last three that we've known about that have played out in the public space with social media postings. Grimes saying that I don't usually do this. I cannot reach my child. Elon, get a hold of me. They have multiple children. That we'll put that one off to the side. That bubbles up occasionally, but then it dies down. There was a Fox News contributor that went out publicly. Elon never really denied that this was his child. She was posturing after it became known for perhaps more support. And Elon, something to the effect of on social media, said that that was granted. And then this one, he actually did not know if this child was his. So that's a bit of a difference between the most recent one. But he said, regardless, I'm giving her something to the tune of a half a million dollars.

[Chris Cote]

It is interesting that David always views things through the prism of how do you protect the money instead of the person?

[David Samson]

No. And thank you for putting me in that saddle.

[Chris Cote]

I didn't put you in that yourself. You put that saddle right on that horse yourself.

[David Samson]

You try to make yourself out as this person, except when people try to extort you or try to take something from you, you stand up and you buck like a bronco, saying, hey, when did I become the teeth that everyone sucks off?

[Chris Cote]

That is not what I do. And I'm not the world's richest man, either. I'm not the world's richest man either. Like, second and no. I do have dollars falling in my backyard, wherever it is that I stay.

[Mike Ryan]

Only ones, though.

[Dan Le Batard]

Which part of Costa Rica would you stay in or live in?

[Billy Gil]

The plumbing situation you see yourself in. Yes.

[Greg Cote]

You got to be careful with the plot of land that you get in Costa Rica. Make sure that they have plumbing.

[David Samson]

Yeah, you can add plumbing.

[Greg Cote]

No, I understand.

[Dan Le Batard]

Well, it's hard.

[Billy Gil]

The beach side is a lot nicer, too. I could see Dan living there. I could see Dan on the beach. Side of Costa Rica.

[David Samson]

A lot of wildlife in the jungle side.

[Dan Le Batard]

I could see him like on a rainforest, like a giant, like, tree house, mansion type thing, you know, with an infinity pool.

[David Samson]

He could do that, but he wouldn't.

[Chris Cote]

When you have this many children, this many women and this much money and so much of the complaint is that you're not taking care of your kids. When it's this many women, it's not one or two. It suggests something that is on. On the cusp of cruel.

[David Samson]

What's the amount? 100 million per kid.

[Chris Cote]

Again, again, again. What is the amount if you have a closet filled with toilet paper and somebody needs some toilet paper? Like, the money doesn't mean the money's not real to him, David. It doesn't. The money doesn't matter to him. He's got so much of it that giving it to anybody doesn' Anything. It doesn't cost him anything.

[David Samson]

Well, I'm just asking for you to give me a number. Should every woman who has a child with him get 200 million, then everyone who has sex with him but doesn't have a child, that's 50 million because you took the time.

[Billy Gil]

I mean, David, he's talking about supporting kids that he had. I mean, and he has unlimited amounts of cash.

[David Samson]

It has nothing to do with the limits of cash. There is an amount of money. I'm simply asking. And you're not willing to give me a number. You say he uses money as toilet paper. Is it a billion dollars because he's got enough?

[Chris Cote]

Is that what they're asking for, David? Are they asking for a billion dollars?

[Mike Ryan]

I'll play your game. Five million a kid.

[David Samson]

Five million a kid.

[Greg Cote]

That seems fair.

[David Samson]

That is a very reasonable number. Plus education. Yeah, like just 5 million in excellence.

[Greg Cote]

I'm never gonna need anything and I'll be here for support.

[Billy Gil]

5 million plus college education, you guys.

[Mike Ryan]

David, to Dan's point, though, he could do that very easily.

[David Samson]

How do you know he's not.

[Chris Cote]

That's true.

[Greg Cote]

We don't. I don't.

[Chris Cote]

I'm trying.

[Greg Cote]

I'm trying to play the game. We don't know.

[Chris Cote]

We don't know the nature of the agreements, you guys. Tom Wamb's Games on Succession.

[Dan Le Batard]

That's a real name.

[Chris Cote]

Said. That is a real name. That's the character's name. Tom Wambs Games on Succession says that $5 million is the worst kind of rich to be. Because you're not. That you're not. Again, this comes from. This comes from the most growth.

[Billy Gil]

You're rich, but you're not rich.

[Chris Cote]

Let me finish. The grotesque of wealth is looking down on the people who only the most grotesque of wealth, which is where Elon Musk exists, look down on the people who only have $5 million as the least of the rich people.

[Billy Gil]

Do you?

[Chris Cote]

I do not know. But I do think.

[David Samson]

You don't look down or you don't have 5 million.

[Greg Cote]

Well, he's looking up at the hills because the money's coming down. Yeah.

[David Samson]

Terrible Airbnb outrage.

[Chris Cote]

Do you have any theories as to what those dollars were doing in the pool and the bushes? Do you have any the. As to why dollars were just falling from the mountainside through the clouds?

[David Samson]

I believe they were Monopoly dollars.

[Chris Cote]

No, they were real dollars.

[David Samson]

Do you know that for sure?

[Chris Cote]

Yes, I do. Touch them? Yes.

[Mike Ryan]

Did you hold it up to a light?

[Chris Cote]

Yes, I had them and put them. I did not do the marker thing. I did not hold them up to a lot. So you're not sure. I am sure. They were.

[Billy Gil]

They may have been fake sweating with that marker.

[Greg Cote]

Comes out.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah. I never know. What if I got a fake one by accident?

[Greg Cote]

That's. I'm the same way. Is that a toxic trick? I'm like, well, this might be the time they get me. Even though I'm.

[Chris Cote]

Well, no, I've been gotten there by not my counterfeit dollars. Really?

[David Samson]

That's so embarrassing. I've never met anyone.

[Chris Cote]

Somebody took a hundred dollars from me in a grocery store because they did all of that stuff and it was. It wasn't a real hundred dollar. They have your child or they just fooled me and told me it wasn't.

[Billy Gil]

That's what I would do.

[Greg Cote]

That's what I'm thinking. There's a good marker gag.

[Billy Gil]

A job at Publix.

[Chris Cote]

Did they have your child? Is what you decided was the good joke to use there?

[Billy Gil]

That's.

[David Samson]

That's what you decided you wouldn't give money.

[Chris Cote]

You decided that that was the good joke there. Did that. To ask me the question, did they have your child?

[Mike Ryan]

Was a callback to Elon.

[Chris Cote]

I'm. Thank you. That's.

[Billy Gil]

Well, you didn't answer in David's defense.

[Chris Cote]

Yeah, I tend not to when he or Billy ask those kinds of questions.

[Dan Le Batard]

To do with this.

[Chris Cote]

That's your specialty. Your specialty is asking a question that you don't actually want to hear the answer to. It's just a question. That's a joke for you to enjoy with the audience on how clever you are. I have not something you want an answer.

[Dan Le Batard]

I have lots of questions. I Want to answer for, like, for example, could or would live in London? Would you adopt an accent at some point in time?

[Billy Gil]

Oh, there's no doubt. There's no doubt.

[Dan Le Batard]

I think after like three years, you'd have one.

[Greg Cote]

I saw a video of Lindsay Lohan. She had a Middle Eastern accent because she lived out there for two years.

[Dan Le Batard]

When she went over there, it was Lowen. When she was here was Lohan.

[Billy Gil]

See, it happened. I went to Australia, I started calling everyone mates.

[Dan Le Batard]

I mean, it happened to Hilaria, it.

[Greg Cote]

Happened to Chris Whittingham, she was Hillary.

[David Samson]

But not when you're back, you're done with that.

[Billy Gil]

I stopped. Yeah, I stopped.

[Chris Cote]

Can you tell us about your travels? How did the searching for marijuana go, Dan?

[Billy Gil]

I gotta tell you, I missed a good search for marijuana because marijuana, yeah, it's too easy now. I walk into stores, there are cops there, there are drug sniffing dogs there. I have no idea why it's legal. I'm buying marijuana. I go to Zen Leaf in Evanston. I go to all these different places and it's easy. And I figured Australia would be easy. Bondi Beach, a bunch of surfers, that there would be pot everywhere. There was nothing. It's not legal there. It's very difficult to get. And I was frustrated because I thought it would be easier until I started my search. And what I missed was this, asking the local bouncers, hey, where can I score a dimebag? Where can I get an eighth? Asking the local surfers if they had any. Walking by. Surfers row, they live in vans there on Bondi beach, are just waiting for waves, okay? And they're all smoking dope and it's coming out of their vans. And, you know, I asked a few of them and they're very greedy with their weed, by the way. They didn't give me any, but I asked and then I started.

[Greg Cote]

You starting such a cop. I do Pappas. Going up to all these different groups of neighbors. You have any weed?

[Billy Gil]

But here's what happened. I asked a local bouncer and he told me about this guy Kiwi. And Kiwi met me in an alley, of course, and I gave him 100 bucks. And he gave me some great weed, Dan. It was exciting from this standpoint. I had to look around to see who was watching. If I'm about to get arrested, are there cops here? And I gotta tell you, the weed game, the cannabis game has become too easy. I miss going to places like the Tide Door, where I would go, Queens, New York, I would drive 45 minutes. He would open a little slot on his door. He would stick his hand out. His hand had herb in it. I would stick my hand in my hand had money in it. And I gotta tell you, I never saw the guy's face. And it was delightful. And I felt like I was on the cusp of getting arrested and I missed the rush of scoring marijuana in a place where it's illegal. I'm going back to Australia. I have got. I can see myself living there.

[Greg Cote]

Maybe not anymore after this segment.

[Billy Gil]

Kiwi is a good mate. I mean, my best mate.

[Mike Ryan]

How good was the quality down under?

[Billy Gil]

It wasn't as good as I thought it would be.

[David Samson]

Pencil shavings. Yeah, had it.

[Billy Gil]

But I miss a chase for drugs.

[Stugatz]

[Billy Gil]

Don Le I had Rachel and Emma both home and I was in a fight with Rachel and I said, if you roll your eyes one more time, there's going to be a problem. A big problem. And she said, really? What are you going to do?

[Chris Cote]

Stugats. Oh God damn. I mean, that's where I didn't have an answer.

[Dan Le Batard]

This is the Dan lebatar show with the Stugach.

[Chris Cote]

I have not gotten used to. I don't know if the rest of you have been in New York since people are just walking through the street smoking, smoking weed. It's disorienting to me as I don't know when that started. That's the last five years. Is that post pandemic that people in New York are just walking through the streets smoking weed?

[David Samson]

Well, the politicians there made it so it's not even a petty crime. You can do whatever you want. You're not going to get stopped. The police were told Specifically, let it go. So that was the. When I was growing up in New York and you went to the park or you got delivered by the chief is how that would work. Not Robert Parrish, but it could have been. Now everything's out in the open.

[Billy Gil]

Never went to the tie door, huh?

[David Samson]

No. No. Too scared.

[Billy Gil]

Yeah.

[Mike Ryan]

If you're delivery. If you're staying at a New York hotel. Not that I've done this, but I've heard people that have done this and you type in dispensary, they, like, pop up, like, everywhere.

[Billy Gil]

Yeah.

[Mike Ryan]

Like you could walk from every hotel. You can walk, dude.

[Billy Gil]

Oh.

[Chris Cote]

But I'm. I'm not even talking about that part. That part I've gotten used to in a lot of different places in America. What I haven't gotten gotten used to is just the walking straight through the streets of New York. I got to think that some of the people listening to this are surprised by that a little bit. Just walking around, smoking outdoors the way that you would cigarettes.

[David Samson]

It's now cigarettes in New York. That's the change.

[Billy Gil]

It is.

[Chris Cote]

But even. But even cigarettes are something that if you're smoking, people will look at you with more judgment now than if you're smoking weed.

[Billy Gil]

You ain't kidding.

[Chris Cote]

It's a bit. It's a bit strange, and I'm not in any way accustomed to it. But you're saying that there are rigidities in Australia and this. This tracks for Stu.

[Billy Gil]

Guys not legal.

[Chris Cote]

He doesn't feel as alive unless the authorities feel like they're closing in. For example, there's another rental car that he's using today that is like the 7,000th rental car that he's used. And I don't know what's going on in his life, even though we've asked him several times on why the rental cars are always different. It's like it's never the same thing. He is. He has been for more than, I'm going to say, years now, just renting cars all the time.

[Billy Gil]

Today is the actual car. I mean, I was gone long enough where my car is finally fixed, so I actually.

[Chris Cote]

Okay, so that's the car.

[Billy Gil]

That's. That's.

[Chris Cote]

That. I don't recognize what is your actual car, because it looks like a new rental car. Because I'm so used to you just driving rental cars all the time.

[Billy Gil]

For now, mates.

[Mike Ryan]

That dealership must hate you. They must despise you.

[Billy Gil]

What, the Audi dealer?

[Mike Ryan]

Just like every week, I need another loaner, buddy. Listen, I know I said last week was the last One. But Rachel, Emma, I need another loaner buddy. I'll pay you next week.

[Billy Gil]

So Mike is questioning my five. I have an Audi from. For me, for my wife. And I have. And I have one for each kid. So that's four.

[David Samson]

Well, you said five.

[Greg Cote]

You're an empty nester right now. So you held on to the cars.

[Chris Cote]

What just happened to the math there?

[Billy Gil]

You know, I happen to.

[Chris Cote]

So what is true? I think you have four. I think you have three cars for four people.

[Billy Gil]

I have four cars for four people.

[Chris Cote]

That's not. That can't be true. Stuart. You're always in rental.

[Billy Gil]

Well, I listen the drive down here and I regretted it. I mean, the second I got my car and it said two and a half hours to the elser hotel. Oh, did I regret my decision. But I am telling you, 95 Dan is where cars go to die. I'm serious. You drive the amount that I Drive on I95, north and south. You are bringing your car to the shop often, Very often.

[David Samson]

So you've decided that your plan is whenever you're in Miami, extra car you have. Not the four Audis, but you get the fifth rental car and you drive the rental car down and back.

[Billy Gil]

Yes, just on 95.

[Chris Cote]

Do you guys have a good grip on how many cars Dugat has?

[Greg Cote]

No.

[Chris Cote]

What is the truth here? Like what. What do you guys believe to be the truth? Truth here? What? Just take all of the words that Stugach just spit in the room, run him through your Stugach is always lying translator and give back to me what you believe is happening in the Stugach driveway right now.

[Mike Ryan]

I believe they have four cars, but I also think that he has a relationship with somebody at that dealership where he is often just going in and getting a loaner, probably not even having to pay for it.

[Billy Gil]

It's fair. His name's Brett.

[Greg Cote]

Yeah, way to go. I try to take inventory of them. So. So from what I gathered, even though he's an empty nester presently, he still has at least one of his daughter's cars and he uses that occasionally. I guess it's a miles situation when she's not in town. He drives that here. But often there's a courtesy vehicle decal on the cars too. To which I agree with Chris. He's got some sort of shady deal going.

[Chris Cote]

That sounds plausible. He's been working in radio's crevices to take advantage of things for a long time. And radio and car dealerships have a symbiotic relationship that is of great Profit to people like Stugat.

[Billy Gil]

Love you. Brett. Tell them Stugat sent.

[David Samson]

Yeah, so this is it. This is the moment when it happened because he's gone his whole career with you. He hasn't yelled out to Howdy until today. I think they finally said, dude, you gotta mention my name from time to time. This has been a one way relationship.

[Chris Cote]

I told you guys the last time I came from Los Angeles that I saw a ton of those robots delivering food in a way that was confusing to me because I just don't understand how any of that happens. But also what I saw in Los Angeles, which seems a little more technologically advanced in this realm than Miami is a lot of self driving cars which I would never get into because of the aforementioned love of fear that I have. And, and you can't see yourself in one of those adherence to fear. I saw a number of people in cars that weren't being driven by the people in those cars. And that's not something that I' I think the technology is too dangerous and too primitive at this point to trust it. What are you laughing about, Samson?

[David Samson]

I'm laughing because were you in London where you often think that no one's in the driver's seat, but they're driving on the other side.

[Greg Cote]

I saw somebody drive that today, right here in South Florida is driving a.

[Chris Cote]

BMW on the right side of the car.

[Greg Cote]

I was like, what's going on here?

[Mike Ryan]

More like the wrong side.

[Dan Le Batard]

My mailman does that.

[Chris Cote]

Would you guys do this? Would you guys?

[Greg Cote]

If I had faith in it. Well, but that.

[Chris Cote]

No, but, but that's.

[Greg Cote]

I mean but that's. It sounds like the dream. Sounds like the dream. Like to hop in a car and not have to worry about talking to anybody. That sounds great.

[David Samson]

It's the reality.

[Greg Cote]

The last time I was in la, my rideshare driver did get into an accident with me in the car. I didn't stick around for the question.

[Chris Cote]

Do you feel safer in a car driven by a random uber stranger in Miami which can be its own adventure than you would in a self driving automated car? Which do you feel safer in?

[David Samson]

Self driving automated automated car.

[Billy Gil]

I watch someone driving my car take me where I need to go.

[David Samson]

Did you see their driver's results test? Do you see their I don't care.

[Chris Cote]

Put it on the poll at Le Batard show, please. Which do you feel safer in a car that someone's driving or a self driving car? Because I am curious the people listening to this. Billy, you are the one that most resembles me as a fear based Creature you would embrace getting into a self driving car?

[Dan Le Batard]

No, no, I was worried. I was worried about the fact that the, the car would just decide where it is that I, I need to go, whether I wanted to go. And we were talking about this the other day how I'd tell the car, take me to McDonald's, they'd take me to LA Fitness. And then I'd get upset that the car was judging my body. Now guys, Sharks, I have a business proposition to propose to you guys. Maybe Metal Arc's newest venture and I'll stand for this because this is a serious one. You guys heard of Waymo? We're kind of talking about it right now. It's like a self driving type Uber, Uber situation. Right?

[Chris Cote]

It's got like a propeller on the back. That's what I was. Or on the top. I was seeing a lot of these helicopters. No, these were not helicopters, these were cars.

[Greg Cote]

Aren't those like sensors and cameras for the self driving part?

[Chris Cote]

There was something spinning on this vehicle. I did not know what it was.

[David Samson]

Could have been a satellite maybe.

[Dan Le Batard]

So this is what I'm thinking and let's keep this hush hush amongst us. I think if we pick the right cities, we just invest in these self driving cars. But we rebrand them as ghosts are driven driving you around town. So you look at haunted cities like New Orleans, Savannah and you say ghost tour. How about a driven ghost tour by Edward Whatever the 15th, the great Duke of whatever. And it's really just self driving cars. But we tell people it's ghosts.

[Mike Ryan]

Spooky sounds in the car.

[Dan Le Batard]

$10 billion for 3%. $5 million. I know, I know. It's the hardest millionaire to be.

[Greg Cote]

I'll take five, negotiate with some estates. Get the rights to Elvis's ghost.

[Dan Le Batard]

Oh, celebrity ghost tours. Michael Ryan Ruiz.

[Greg Cote]

I want, I want a 5% sick.

[Chris Cote]

I believe that you have found a scenario that's even scarier to me than a car that is self driven.

[Dan Le Batard]

Especially if they died in car accidents.

[Billy Gil]

That would be weird.

[Chris Cote]

Ghosts. I don't think that. I think this is not just false advertising and a crime. I also think, think you've created a scenario where I feel even less safe on the road than all of the scenarios that I presently can feel unsafe on the road about.

[David Samson]

When you were flying back from L. A did you think there was someone flying your plane?

[Dan Le Batard]

Yes, you did.

[David Samson]

But there's, you know what they were doing in the. I know, watching adolescents.

[Chris Cote]

Right, but there are two of them in there. In the event. No, in the event that the machine doesn't work. There are two human beings in there. If you want to put, you want to put the driver in the trunk of the car and he pops out and drops. I'm safe. Right before we get into an accident there, I'd feel safer. But there are pilots on those planes. They're not just self flying in a way that if something goes wrong, the pilots don't step in. And there are two of them. Like even on the smallest plane I've been on, and I've been on some terrifying small, small planes, they put two pilots on there. They put two pilots in the event that one of them goes down.

[Dan Le Batard]

Well, technically in the self driving car there is a driver available. Should something go wrong, it's usually you just hop to the front seat and take over.

[Chris Cote]

But I don't believe that. I don't.

[Dan Le Batard]

Tony was there, he'd drive that car, I'll tell you that right now.

[Chris Cote]

I don't believe that that's actually how that works. That you're going to be able to just grab the steering wheel and drive the car the way a normal car.

[Billy Gil]

You have Dan just hopping into the front seat.

[David Samson]

Like it's so easy while it's hitting a wall. No clutch.

[Chris Cote]

I don't think you answered the question though, Bill. You decided to stand up and go off elsewhere and bring ghosts.

[Dan Le Batard]

I gave you a billion dollar id.

[Chris Cote]

Yes, but you didn't answer.

[Dan Le Batard]

What was the question.

[Mike Ryan]

Wouldn't it hit the same if he.

[Chris Cote]

Sat the amount that you fear or would fear if, if a car pulled up and was going to take you somewhere and didn't have a driver?

[Dan Le Batard]

No, I don't like it. They could potentially just choose my destination, lock me in. I go to open it. They have the child lock on all the doors. I can't go in. And then I have to go to the gym and work out.

[Chris Cote]

I think there's a movie coming out or has come out now that is exclusively in a car where someone tries to steal a car and then it's a horror movie and then gets TR trapped in the car and can't get out of the car. And for two hours there's whatever is a very slow death in the car.

[Billy Gil]

I'm there.

[Chris Cote]

Speaking of movies, incidentally, there were a handful of them I wanted to ask you about because I want to see which one you guys are most excited about in terms of what I've heard over the last 10 days is either going to be remade or is going to be totally new. So here are your choices. David Fincher and Quentin Tarantino are teaming up to do, I believe, a prequel to one Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. So these are two monster directors. I can't. I don't think two directors of this ilk have ever collaborated on a project together.

[Billy Gil]

When you have two directors, Dan, you have none.

[Chris Cote]

Okay.

[Billy Gil]

Has made his final movie 50 times.

[Chris Cote]

Finally.

[Mike Ryan]

Like the Elton John tour.

[Chris Cote]

No, that's not in it. He's got his final movie coming out, and I don't believe this is the final one, because that's impossible.

[Dan Le Batard]

Then his final movie is never coming out unless he dies.

[David Samson]

Got bills to pay. Maybe.

[Chris Cote]

Maybe David Fincher, for those you don't know. That's seven. He's done a lot of great stuff. Roadhouse 2 with Guy Ritchie is going to be made. I assume that Gyllenhaal and Conor McGregor are going to be in that one again. Naked Gun is being rebooted with Liam Neeson.

[Greg Cote]

What a great trailer.

[Billy Gil]

That was really.

[Greg Cote]

Seth MacFarlane, like, the perfect guy for that. I don't know. Did you see the trailer? They made O.J. simpson canon, which is great.

[Chris Cote]

You didn't want that. Stugach. You're objecting to that.

[Billy Gil]

I mean, it was good the first time around. It was perfect. Dare I say the first time around.

[Greg Cote]

Well, it wasn't just the first time. That was the second time and a 33rd and a third time. So it's been like 30 years since we've seen a Naked Gun movie. And quite honestly, that entire genre, that spoofy type of genre, is kind of. Kind of dynamic with that specific type of humor. And it's, you know, it was warm nostalgia.

[David Samson]

Airplane, the greatest ever of that genre.

[Chris Cote]

So Liam Neeson replaces Leslie Nielsen. I have trouble with these two names the same way I do with Jack Nicholas. Nicholas and Jack Nicholson. Sometimes I get. I was surprised with Liam Neeson as the character to remake Naked Gun. He's been doing nothing but bringing back his children and daughter from icy roads and trains and foreign countries. And now all of a sudden, he's going comedy, trying to show that range. And he's normal. He's about 70. Is he not? Like, I don't think of him in any way as a comedic and comedic actor, do you guys?

[Greg Cote]

I mean, it's like what Leslie Nilsen did with Airplane. He was a dramatic actor before he did that movie.

[Chris Cote]

Also in Play, Ice Cube has written and will star in last Friday. He's bringing that back. And also Nobody, too, with Bob Odenkirk, where he is a.

[David Samson]

It's a Good movie.

[Chris Cote]

I love Nobody. So which of those are you guys most excited about? I pray you can pick only one and I give you your choice. Which are you picking?

[David Samson]

I went with Nobody because I love Odenkirk and I miss Better Call Saul more than.

[Chris Cote]

More than Tarantino and Fincher because I.

[David Samson]

Think they have a chance to botch it. Too many people involved.

[Greg Cote]

I read the book that Tarantino put out around Once Upon a Time in Hollywood that really delved into Clint Booth's history, and it was just like, uber nerdy. Not at all what he came out as in the movie where he was like, this man's man. He had all sorts of opinions on cinema and all sorts of influences. So I hope that they change it up. I also like that Tarantino was like, this is not a fit for me to direct. Because contrary to Sugats his take, Tarantino is trying to be ultra selective with what will be his final film. He's been rumored to be attached to films and he's decided, no, that's not gonna be my last picture.

[Chris Cote]

I wonder if this even qualifies for him as his last film because I think it's just for Netflix and I think people like him and Scorsese don't view movies made for Netflix or the streamers as the same as they would movies that are in theaters.

[Greg Cote]

Scorsese certainly takes a check, and so cash is like the money. Cash is like the money. No, I think for him it's, did I write and direct this film? Is it a true written and directed by Quentin Tarantino? Pick. The story is. Tarantino was like, I just don't think this works. But Brad Pitt really loved the script. In fact, it came out in a Deadline story where Deadline reassured everybody it wasn't an April Fool's Day story. That Brad, having worked with David Fincher on movies like Se7en, Fight Club, convinced David Fincher to apparently take this project.

[Chris Cote]

Let me ask Sampson this question as a movie fellow, because I'm surprised by his answer, and I'm surprised that he would think. Think that two genius collaborators that he would just surmise, ah, ego will wreck that. Even though both of those guys are almost fundamentally incapable of making an uninteresting movie, the two of them. So why would you assume if they got together and are willing to get together and are willing to challenge themselves with whatever would be a first time type of collaboration, why would you immediately arrive at thinking that would be failure? And if you are arriving immediately at that being failure, who are you putting together that wouldn't be failure if those two particular people, two of the best there's ever been working together. You think it's too much ego.

[David Samson]

You know what happens when two people have equal footing and they get together and form a partnership and there's no clear person who has final cut, final edit, final decision on shot or what happens. You got a problem. And so if you're telling me that Tarantino and Fincher are actually going to have someone in charge, one of those two things.

[Billy Gil]

They're the alpha dog dog.

[David Samson]

And you can't have final two alpha dogs. Yeah, it won't work right when you have two.

[Billy Gil]

Dan.

[Greg Cote]

I think you guys are overblowing it. Steven Spielberg is executive produced several big.

[David Samson]

Time directors, but he doesn't get involved. Executive producer.

[Greg Cote]

There's a great story about a film, I think it was Twister, where it was going on over budget and he just landed on the tarmac and reamed out the director without stepping off the plane. But it's super involved.

[Billy Gil]

This is co directing though.

[Greg Cote]

No, it's not co directing. David Fincher is directing this film. Tarantino just wrote the script.

[David Samson]

So that's true romance then. Hold on, I.

[Greg Cote]

And by the way, Tarantino has co directed pictures in a sense in that the grindhouse film with Robert Rodriguez. He made a film. Robert Rodriguez made a film and it came out in one standalone release.

[David Samson]

You can have people who direct chapters of a film. That happens all the time. I thought what you said it was like a Coen brothers situation or the Farrelly brothers situation.

[Greg Cote]

No, Tarantino is so.

[David Samson]

Damn.

[Chris Cote]

It's not true romance though. This is his prize.

[David Samson]

It's Once Upon a Time Wrote.

[Chris Cote]

It's the prequel. It's the prequel to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. It's his. It's Tarantino. They're both directing, but it's Tarantino's movie being done by Fincher. It's Tarantino giving over his baby to a director that he considers someone. He doesn't consider many close to his equal. This is one he considers. It's basically him and Paul Thomas Anderson that he looks at and says, these people are my equal.

[Billy Gil]

But when Fincher does something with the movie that Tarantino doesn't like, what's going to happen happen then? What do you think? What do you imagine would happen then?

[Mike Ryan]

Sounds like Tarantino could make this film, but wouldn't.

[Chris Cote]

The one time that Tarantino did this, as you mentioned, with Rodriguez, it was a disaster. It's the worst thing on Tarantino's resume.

[Greg Cote]

There's Planet Terror and death proof that together. I actually didn't mind death proof.

[Chris Cote]

Well, you don't have to, but you don't have to mind it. It's widely regarded as the worst thing Tarantino has made. And there's not a lot of bad stuff. Stuff that Tarantino has made, but that would be the least popular of all of the things that Tarantino has been involved in.

[Greg Cote]

Does that count? I don't even think that counts in his.

[Dan Le Batard]

This guy. What counts and what doesn't count? It seems like if it's good, it counts. If it's bad, it doesn't.

[Billy Gil]

Yep.

[David Samson]

Is it on his IMDb page and is it there under director? Cuz they. They put it in a category. Did he direct it or not?

[Chris Cote]

You are. You're making a distinction. I will have to look up and do more reporting on this. You're making a distinction that I don't think is relevant. Because if Tarantino has written something that he is then going to put out into the world, I don't think he's going to be hands off about letting someone else do that without any opinions given, no matter how much he trusts that person. I'm assuming that these two people are collaborating on something and I'm surprised by your appraisal that they cannot do it successfully when both of them are choosing it out of admiration for each other.

[David Samson]

Collaborate. But someone has to have the final say.

[Greg Cote]

It'll be curious to see how Tarantino's ego has aged with time because it's not the first time that he's written a script and another director has done it. Tony Scott. He did some work on Crimson Tide.

[Chris Cote]

Other director, True Romance as well. But this. But this one is different just because it's. But it's. It's his. This is a prequel to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. This is something that he has already curated. Taken care of. What are you making faces fail if.

[David Samson]

There'S no set person in charge. If it's not.

[Billy Gil]

If there's.

[David Samson]

They're tied. What are they? Who's going to break the tie goes to the runner.

[Greg Cote]

I think Brad Pitt. By the. By the story on it that I read, it seems as though this is Tarantino giving this project over to Brad Pitt. And Brad Pitt convinced David Fincher. I'm not really sure what the connection points are between Fincher and Tarantino. I'm sure there are some being that they were in Hollywood excelling at a high rate, but this is really a Brad Pitt thing.

[David Samson]

Dan said that the collaboration is. It's the Only one he respects. Specs Tarantino, along with pta. That's it. That's all he'd work with.

[Chris Cote]

It's the highest.

[David Samson]

Not gonna happen.

[Billy Gil]

All right, I'm with David. Clash of the Titans. Dan.

[Greg Cote]

That'S a different movie.

[Billy Gil]

Oh, sorry, folks.
