Let's go. This episode of the Dan Lebatard show with Stugats is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings. The Crown is yours.

[Dan LeBatard]

I will tell the audience here, after a few years of metal arc, that Tony's story is charming and amazing. As one of these loyal guerrillas who will run with our show no matter where it goes, in terms of leaving the safety net so that he can go chase some of the things that he wanted in Miami, where there are not media companies, Tony has hustled his way into something with those MMA hangouts that he's doing where a lot of people are gathering, they are getting popular, sponsors are around him, and he's doing it till he's satisfied. And now he's brought a kid into the world and we haven't celebrated it here or we haven't talked about. I didn't feel like Billy got enough paternity leave. I don't even know how much is the.

[Ron McGill]

Do you want me?

[Greg Cody]

Both, sister.

[Dan LeBatard]

Is the right. How much? He says eating Funyuns. Are a lot of people eating Funyuns these days?

[Billy]

Yes, Billy.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's an old school school snack, is it not? Is. Put it on the poll at Lebitard show. Are Funyuns still popular? I loved Funyuns, but I haven't had one since I was 17.

[Billy]

Did you love Funyuns at 11am in the morning?

[Greg Cody]

I was gonna say not many people are eating funyuns at 10:44am I ate.

[Sponsor]

One of my daughter's snacks the other day that I used to crush when I was a kid. The fruit roll up just doesn't slap the same as when you were.

[Greg Cody]

They've changed the fruit roll up and we don't need to get into that today because we'll be on that for a while.

[Dan LeBatard]

I want to get to a number of things with you, including Funyuns. This is an. Am I wrong in saying that that's an old school snack? I would assume that many people are still eating Funyuns. I'm just not. I'm not used to seeing what I just saw. Not at 11am, not at any time.

[Greg Cody]

Well, I mean, here's the weird thing. I'm not a fan of onions. I had an incident. But Funyuns I'm still good with. Funyuns are the fun onion. You know what I mean? I'm pretty sure that's why it's called Funyuns. Right?

[Billy]

Sure.

[Greg Cody]

So they did it before you, Chris.

[Stugatz]

I love Funyuns because they're super salty and super crunchy, which is what I love in a snack.

[Dan LeBatard]

Put it on the poll at Lebatard show. Did you know Funyuns was short for fun onions? I don't know that that is.

[Greg Cody]

So what else would it be short for?

[Dan LeBatard]

I just thought it was a fun way of saying onions.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, Funyuns.

[Billy]

Funyuns.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah.

[Greg Cody]

And they're like onion rings. You know onion rings. Have you heard of onion rings?

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah. Onion rings are one of the most underrated of all of the snacks.

[Stugatz]

Yes.

[Dan LeBatard]

Onion in general, I would make onion rings. A Hall of Famer for underrated. Criminally underrated. I don't know if it's a snack or if it's a loose end or what I would call it an appetizer.

[Billy]

I like this, though. A Hall of Fame for the underrated.

[Dan LeBatard]

This is great.

[Sponsor]

But they're also on the All Don't Travel team. They don't travel well.

[Stugatz]

No.

[Sponsor]

It's not a good thing to get, like, to go.

[Stugatz]

Yeah. They gotta be thin as well, and they can burn your mouth easily.

[Dan LeBatard]

Do they have to be thin?

[Stugatz]

Yeah.

[Sponsor]

Crispy.

[Greg Cody]

I don't know about crispy. Yeah, I mean, I hate a wet, flaccid onion.

[Stugatz]

I hate the thick onion ring, though. When the onion is like that, It's. It's.

[Dan LeBatard]

You hate that.

[Stugatz]

Yeah, yeah. It's a different. It's a different appetizer. You gotta have the thin ring.

[Sponsor]

You gotta have sharp teeth, because if you don't, you bite into it once and the onion comes out of the. The outer shell.

[Billy]

I like the onion strings. Those are my favorite Flanagans.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, it works for the Bloomin Onion.

[Stugatz]

Yeah, the Bloomin Onion. That was good. Those are little pieces, though.

[Dan LeBatard]

Still is.

[Ron McGill]

Yeah.

[Stugatz]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Stugatz]

They were pretty thick. But they were small, though. They weren't big, thick rings. Yeah, they weren't rings. Yeah, they were like petals.

[Ron McGill]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, they were petals, exactly. Blooming of a beautiful flower. That's right.

[Ron McGill]

Exactly.

[Stugatz]

That's right.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yes. A fried flower. My favorite kind. My most romantic kind of flower. Ron McGill, before I ask you animal questions, can I get your opinion on both Funyuns and onion rings?

[Ron McGill]

I hate onions. Any kind of onions. Onions and pickles. Totally out of my league. I don't eat them. I hate them, and they're disgusting. It's minus pickles and onions for anything I ever order.

[Stugatz]

Wow.

[Dan LeBatard]

Roy, are you noticing, like I am, that the jacket that Ron is wearing, clearly animal skin, bought with some of the charitable funds our listeners. And fine. Fine animal skin bought by money that our listeners have donated to his endowment. The open shirt and the chain. Where is Ron McGill coming from, looking like this?

[Ron McGill]

I'm going to give a presentation right after I have the pleasure of speaking to this wonderful crew.

[Dan LeBatard]

What will you be presenting? Sounds sarcastic.

[Ron McGill]

Debbie. Presenting on Pride of the Lion.

[Stugatz]

Oh, nice.

[Billy]

Oh, wow.

[Stugatz]

Quasi, let's go sell that book.

[Dan LeBatard]

You're doing a presentation? Wait a minute. You're going door to door with presentations? Selling the book. Pride of a Lion, done by you and Greg Cody.

[Ron McGill]

Yes, I'm doing a Presentation for the Broward Public Library system up in Broward county this afternoon.

[Stugatz]

Do it till you're satisfied.

[Dan LeBatard]

What kind of crowd will that draw? How many books will that sell? Is there a minimum admission?

[Ron McGill]

Don't know. It's generally seniors. It's generally seniors.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, that's why I was so stunned to see AJ Brown holding a physical book on the sidelines. I didn't think that people his age did that anymore.

[Billy]

That book is number one on Amazon right now.

[Dan LeBatard]

That is such a man. Product placement. That is so good. People want to know how to have one catch for four yards.

[Stugatz]

That is the truth. I sent A.J. brown a whole box full of pride of alliance.

[Dan LeBatard]

I did.

[Billy]

It's funny you did that.

[Dan LeBatard]

Look, I've got more respect than I did for him before. I thought that bamboo reed thing was a joke. I can't. I'm. We're just going to move right on that. I mean, unbelievable. We haven't had an ending to a segment that dramatic and that victorious for Greg Cody and I do not know how long. Amazing work by you.

[Sponsor]

And it overshadowed the followup of. Was that when you were on lsd?

[Billy]

Yeah, yeah.

[Stugatz]

Bamboo was doing a great job.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, that's what I want to do. I want imaging going forward of Chris Cody as Bamboo Reed. I want you to have like a bit of an Indiana Jones character of what you could have been vastly more interesting than the character I get today if you had indeed become Bamboo Reed Cody outdoorsman back when your dad was on lsd. Let's. Let's show Ron some video here. I want to show some B roll here of a lioness. She is snarling and swiping at a male lion after what looks like just a greeting, a friendly greeting here. Tell me what's happening. And do play by play for this on. On this run.

[Ron McGill]

This female lioness is trying to get the lion's attention. This is actually his way, her way of getting attention. She wants to be bred, actually. See how she's raising her tail, raising herself, putting right in front of him like that. She's kind of getting his attention. She'll probably end up coming back again. But this is just basically, they're kind of a little bit of a foreplay thing. And, you know, the female basically runs the show when it's that situation going on. Once she's in the total peak of her heat, they'll breed every 20 minutes for about three days.

[Dan LeBatard]

Whoa.

[Stugatz]

Wow.

[Billy]

Baby.

[Stugatz]

Wait a minute.

[Dan LeBatard]

What is the. And not insect kingdom, but what is the most prodigious of the animal kingdom in this regard. In terms of appetite.

[Ron McGill]

The shah's jerd. It's a little rodent. It looks like a gerbil. Does it about every 20 seconds.

[Dan LeBatard]

Do it till you're satisfied.

[Stugatz]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

And often, but never satisfied. But not exactly.

[Ron McGill]

Because in that 22nd interval, it has to have a few seconds for recovery. So it's a very quick thing. I mean, it's, you know.

[Stugatz]

Yeah, same with me.

[Ron McGill]

It's not something that maybe some of you guys are used to, to.

[Dan LeBatard]

But that's why Arlene gave it up so, so easily. She's like, I'll be gone for seven seconds and then come home and eat a sandwich. Let's, let's. Speaking of sandwiches, let's, let's play the cassowary. The cassowary is very dangerous. The cassowary will. Will disembowel you.

[Sponsor]

This is terrifying.

[Dan LeBatard]

Do not turn your back to a cassowary. The cassowary has a clawed talon and. What is happening here, Ron? She's got a sandwich.

[Ron McGill]

Somebody's being stupid for a selfie. I don't know what she was doing there, but if that cassowary.

[Dan LeBatard]

Sandwich. She's got a sandwich. And the cassowary.

[Ron McGill]

Okay, well, this is a problem with people probably feeding this cassowary on this beach. And this cassowary now associates people with food and is looking for the food. And this woman's running away and the cassowary is going after because he wants the sandwich. And they all think it's cute until somebody gets disemboweled.

[Sponsor]

What would you recommend, though? If I'm on the beach with my wife and I see a cassowary? Like, do I throw my sandwich far away from me?

[Ron McGill]

Yes, yes, exactly, Chris.

[Sponsor]

That is feeding it technically.

[Ron McGill]

Well, it is, but you're already the point of no return. Okay, so this is a situation where now you've either, you know, this cassowary has already been acclimated to associating people with food. Damage has already been done. Now you're in a situation where you got to protect yourself, get the animal away from you.

[Stugatz]

Ron, is that related to the ostrich? It's gotta be, right?

[Ron McGill]

It's a type of, you know, of, you know, a flightless large bird. I don't know if it's quite in the rat type family like the emus and the rheas are, but it's very similar, I guess, in structure.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's not as big. Right. The ostriches is bigger. The ostrich is the biggest of the flightless birds, right?

[Ron McGill]

That is correct. The ostriches is bigger.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yes, but this one is more dangerous.

[Ron McGill]

Oh, yes, because it can be aggressive. This one will feed on, you know, on a lot of different things, including small animals. So it has a very huge middle claw that it will kick with and will disembowel you.

[Stugatz]

Wow.

[Dan LeBatard]

The ostrich is that the most dangerous.

[Ron McGill]

Bird in the world to humans?

[Dan LeBatard]

Really? The ostrich put it on the poll at Lebatard show. Did you know the cassowary was the most dangerous bird in the world to humans? The ostrich is not carnivorous or it also eats the ostriches.

[Ron McGill]

The ostrich is the finely tuned eating machine. They'll eat everything from, you know, metal screws to ping pong balls. But they're not as. As voracious a feeder as the cassowary is.

[Dan LeBatard]

All right, but so I was saying. But they do eat meat, do they not? The ostrich doesn't eat meat.

[Ron McGill]

Not really, no. I mean, it may do so, you know, on a whim, but it's not the mainstay of its diet.

[Dan LeBatard]

So. But wait, are you saying that basically the ostrich is kind of like a giant buzzard in terms of. In terms of nutri? That it's not a classy bird in terms of what it eats?

[Ron McGill]

No, it puts almost anything into its mouth. You know, people who keep them under human care, the big challenge they have with them. There you see the claw that cassowary, the big challenge people have keeping ostrich is, you know, keeping them from eating things that they're not supposed to eat. I mean, we've had ostrich in captivity that we have found everything, like I said, from screws to springs to coins in their bellies.

[Dan LeBatard]

The claw of the cassowary we just showed, that's the closest thing we'll find in the animal kingdom to looking like a dinosaur claw. Correct.

[Ron McGill]

I agree with you 100%. Yes. That's kind of like a, you know, it's modern day velociraptor type stuff.

[Dan LeBatard]

Billy, you were asking earlier in the show a question about fighting with a sword, a bull or a tiger. What was the question? Ron McKill is perfect to talk about this.

[Greg Cody]

Well, Ron, so someone broke into Roy's car, so he dressed like a gladiator, so no one else would break into his car today. And then one thing led to another and we started talking about lions versus tigers in terms of, you know, modern day gladiators versus bullfighters, and which you would rather fight With a sword. Would you rather fight a bul. Bull with a sword or a lion with a sword?

[Ron McGill]

Oh, a bull. 100%. There's no question about it. Keep in mind, a bull is not a predator that feeds on, you know, carnivorous things. The bull is just being aggressive, trying to defend itself. You got two horns as opposed to a whole set of teeth and 10 claws in both of those animals that are born killers.

[Greg Cody]

Ron, I. I recently went to the zoo, and I got to tell you.

[Ron McGill]

Billy, I ran across you, and I cannot believe that you produce such an absolutely gorgeous baby. That is one of the most gorgeous babies I've ever seen in my life.

[Billy]

Why are you so shocked?

[Ron McGill]

I mean, I'm just pretty amazed because I'm telling you, I'm sure you guys have seen this kid. This kid, and I'm not a big. I usually think that most babies look like lizards that need to be put back for the cooking.

[Dan LeBatard]

Put it on the poll, please.

[Ron McGill]

Juju.

[Dan LeBatard]

Do most babies. Do most babies look like lizards who need to be put back for the cooking?

[Ron McGill]

But I gotta tell you, Billy's little girl was one of the most precious things I've ever seen.

[Greg Cody]

Thank you, Ron. So, anyways, I saw you by the tiger exhibit, and I have two questions about my visit to the zoo. One, we were told that when you can't see the tigers, sometimes they climb up into the trees and they're hiding in the trees to get shade. And I said, you know, it seems like a little. Maybe the tigers are just hiding and we don't see them, but they're telling us they're in the trees. And then the follow up to that question is, I then saw the chimpanzees, and you were just talking about ostriches eating everything, and you find screws and whatever. And on a previous visit to the zoo, I told you I saw someone throw some ice cream to a chimpanzee because they asked for it. And I noticed this time when I saw the chimpanzees. There's now a speaker with Ron McGill's voice blasting, saying, do not throw anything to the chimpanzees or we will prosecute you and you will be prosecuted to the fullest. Extended law in both English and Spanish on a nonstop loop. Is that good for the mental health of these chimpanzees? Hearing your voice over and over and over again, I'll tell you, it's not.

[Ron McGill]

Good for my mental health. It's not one of the things that I supported. They asked me to make the recording I will say that you're being a little bit extreme in that, you know, I don't say that you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the lie. I don't think that's what we disemboweled.

[Greg Cody]

I heard.

[Ron McGill]

Well, yeah, well, anyway, I think basically what we say, listen, please don't feed them because they have a very specific diet and by feeding them something that's not on their diet can get them pretty sick. So that's what I say. And I do say it in my both languages, even though my Spanish is a little bit left to be desired. Having said that, that loop only happens when people move in front of it. It's set up by a motion sensor. So it's just. It's not playing continuously around the clock that the chimps have to listen to it. God forbid.

[Dan LeBatard]

Ron, what is the status right now of your Sex and the Animals? Your Sex and the Animals yearly presentation that for many years is one of the most iconic sold out events that we've ever had in South Florida?

[Ron McGill]

I don't do it. It's been put on the shelf. The only way I will ever do it is that Dan LeBatard asked me to do it for something for him.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, wow.

[Sponsor]

Wow.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think I might be. That is a private show.

[Ron McGill]

That presentation now is part of the.

[Dan LeBatard]

Dan LeBatard show, you guys. Okay, that's great. Well, I will find a way to do that for our audience.

[Billy]

I don't think you were invited.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, yeah, sorry. Will Greg, Cody, Dan and Stugatz have sex with the animals? Because that's what Stugats is insinuating. No, but it's a very popular thing that he does because it's just science. And I'd like for you to explain with your expertise, because I've said this before. I know. So we're spoiled around here. But in terms of national authorities in the animal realm, now that Steve Irwin has passed and we don't really have a lot of people who do this between languages, Spanish and English. Ron McGill represents the, I think the most famous caretaker for the animals right now that we have in America. Speaking on behalf of. Can we just care for the animals? And this video right here that I want to show you, Ron, I want you to explain to me how mountain goats do this, what these goats are doing, because I don't understand how they traverse a mountainside this way when this seems to defy the laws of physics.

[Ron McGill]

Jesus.

[Dan LeBatard]

That they can. That they can have that kind of facility on the side of a mountain. Where if they were to slip, all of them would slip to their death.

[Ron McGill]

And it does on occasion happen. I will say it does on occasion, but rarely happen. It's just a wonderful adaptation, Dan. It's a matter of survival. It's a matter of growing up in an environment that you adapt to. These animals, if you looked at their hooves, their hooves are almost like pointed. So they are able to actually grasp the tiniest little ledge and they are able to survive that way. I mean, this is how they escape predators, things like leopards and other carnivores. But I will say that I have seen an occasion where they lost footing and they die.

[Sponsor]

So I bet it's more common than you'd imagine. Like we just see the good ones because they're good at it, right?

[Ron McGill]

I don't know that's possible. I do know that it does happen. But, you know, the fact that, you know, nature is a circle of life and the ones that don't, don't succeed, they become food for something else. But again, these animals have adapted to an environment that enables them to do things that are absolutely incredible.

[Dan LeBatard]

What would you say, Ron? Because I will remind again the audience, I haven't done this in a while. The audience, the reason that Ron is so good to the show and so available to the show, as someone who has never made any money off the show except for the charitable contributions with which he buys expensive cars, fancy trips and the jackets, the jacket that he is presently wearing, he does a lot of big work with the help of our listeners who represent the biggest donations that he gets at Miami Zoo because of how much they appreciate how great he is with the animals. So if you want to help the animals directly, his endowment is always available to you. If I were to play for you a bunch of video here that would amaze you the way that that one did. What represents the most amazing thing like that that you believe exists in the wild? An adaptation so amazing that it defies the law of physics.

[Ron McGill]

Well, I'll tell you what, Dan, I looked at, you know, when I looked at that video, it reminded me another one which is probably the most jaw dropping video I've ever seen. I'm sure Stu guys can find it, find a snow leopard actually going after one of those animals, getting it and both of them plummeting down well over 150ft against the rocks and surviving. Watch that video. It is one of the most incredible videos I've ever seen of an animal defying everything to survive.

[Dan LeBatard]

So.

[Ron McGill]

Except the, of course, didn't, because it ended up being killed by the leopard. But look at the leopard never letting go and plummeting down on these rocks hundreds of feet down a sheer cliff. Unbelievable.

[Dan LeBatard]

Okay, another thing.

[Ron McGill]

That's unbelievable. Look at the golden eagles grabbing. Grabbing shammy, which is a type of antelope grabbing them babies that are twice the weight of the. Of the. Of the darn eagle. Now look at this. Watch this. Oh, my gosh. This is unbelievable. Now it's going to grab and. And then when it grabs it, they both plummet. Look at. Now watch this. Watch this. Go. Wait, wait. Get him, get him, get him, get him, get him, get him, get him, get him. Is this the one? This isn't the one. This isn't the real good one, but what now? This isn't the real good one. There's one that. It's like death for sure of this snow leopard grabbing a sham. But no, that's. That. That's a crappy one. There's a much better one. But look at the gold.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's a good one because it got away. That wasn't a bad one. That was a good one because it got away.

[Ron McGill]

It was bad for the snow leopard. But here's the deal. Look at the. Look at this.

[Dan LeBatard]

All right? Stugach is watching it by himself. He's not helping anybody. He's doing his own.

[Ron McGill]

It's unbelievable.

[Dan LeBatard]

But that's not helping anybody. To God. You're doing your own.

[Billy]

I mean, he asked me to look it up.

[Dan LeBatard]

You're own private show, Stugan.

[Ron McGill]

And then look at a golden eagle grabbing a golden eagle grabbing an antelope. And then it's too big for the golden eagle just to kill the antelope. So what does it do? It grabs it. It weighs more than the eagle, flies way up in the air and then drops it to its death so it can eat it. It's unbelievable stuff.

[Dan LeBatard]

All right. We are looking for it. And now is this the video?

[Ron McGill]

Here it is.

[Dan LeBatard]

Here it is. Okay. This is the one right here.

[Ron McGill]

Look at this. Watch it. It's normally. Watch it. Goes across the cliff, grabs it and then.

[Dan LeBatard]

Look at this. Look at this, Dan. Holy.

[Sponsor]

This doesn't seem.

[Ron McGill]

Well, it's not over. It's not over. It's not over. It's not over. Watch this. It's not over, brother.

[Dan LeBatard]

Boom, boom.

[Stugatz]

Oh, wow.

[Sponsor]

You're saying this as if this was the plan. It seems like this thing was trying to catch the food and just started falling down a mountain.

[Ron McGill]

I mean, this is unbelievable. And he doesn't let it go Come on, Dan.

[Dan LeBatard]

Come on. No, it is amazing. I'm not gonna dispute that. I'm just. I'm beyond amazing still.

[Ron McGill]

It's beyond amazing.

[Dan LeBatard]

All right. Don't yell at me. I don't.

[Ron McGill]

I just get so excited when I see this stuff.

[Sponsor]

If I had a hamburger. If I had a hamburger in my hand and I'm going down that mountain. I'm holding on to that hamburger, Ron. It's not that impressive.

[Ron McGill]

Okay.

[Dan LeBatard]

What do I have to say? So you're sufficiently satisfied doing it?

[Ron McGill]

Grabbing the shammy. I'm glad you guys find this stuff. And then it takes it up in the air. It flies with this thing. It flies with it. Look at this. And then it'll take it to its death.

[Billy]

Oh, my God.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah. That's horrifying for that poor thing.

[Ron McGill]

This is unbelievable stuff.

[Dan LeBatard]

Jesus, That's. That is a gruesome. Death. Just took that thing, threw it to its death. I didn't like that video. That is horrible. That's a snuff film you just showed us. It's. This is irresponsible, what we're doing. I don't. I like the animal videos where the animals get away. I like. I like the iguana running a wild. Thousand snakes in the desert.

[Stugatz]

Not how nature works.

[Ron McGill]

Dad, everything's got to eat. Dan, think of how incredible animals are to adapt, to get their food.

[Billy]

Okay, look. I mean, it's not how nature. It's not how nature.

[Dan LeBatard]

Listen to me.

[Billy]

Anything can happen.

[Dan LeBatard]

Okay? Listen to me. I'm well aware the wild is terribly cruel. More cruel than I could possibly imagine. Show me the videos where the iguana gets away from a thousand snakes. I like those better.

[Ron McGill]

Oh, yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

I like those better than the videos of the thing dying at the end because a giant bird has taken a wonderful stuffed animal and thrown it off a cliff so it could fall 700ft to its death. Amazing that the bird is that smart. Don't want to watch it as a video entertainment experience. Thank you.

[Ron McGill]

You're showing me a video where the iguana didn't get away?

[Dan LeBatard]

No, this one gets away, I think. Are you showing me.

[Sponsor]

I think he gets away.

[Ron McGill]

Wait for it.

[Dan LeBatard]

Hold on. No one gets out of this.

[Billy]

Yeah. That is the Derrick Henry of iguana.

[Dan LeBatard]

Look at this. Broken tackle. So broken tackles in the open field.

[Ron McGill]

Oh, no.

[Dan LeBatard]

Joe Mixon. Beautiful.

[Ron McGill]

Hey, listen, the bottom line is, wildlife is amazing whichever way you look at it.

[Dan LeBatard]

That is correct. I prefer it alive, though. So let's play for Ron McGill here. The last video of the Day. Explain to me what a service dog is doing here in the paying of groceries because I know Greg Cody has lamented service dogs as if they're not useful comfort animals. Here's a service dog learning something I did not know that service dogs knew how to do, which is pay pay cash money or pay credit card for a purchase at a grocery store. Is this stupid pet tricks or is this a real thing?

[Ron McGill]

It's basically stupid pet tricks. You know, it's the dog's been taught to take something that the owner gives it and to present it to someone else.

[Dan LeBatard]

I'm sorry, Ron, let me interrupt you for a second. Greg muttered something drunk into the microphone because he starred for two hours and is kind of bored. What were you saying, Greg?

[Stugatz]

I'm just remarking that you could shortchange a dog and wouldn't know the difference. You know, I mean, and you are.

[Ron McGill]

You are correct.

[Billy]

You're right.

[Dan LeBatard]

Y.

[Ron McGill]

You are correct.

[Stugatz]

Thank you.

[Ron McGill]

That dog has been trained perfect to give whatever the owner gives it to the person and whatever the person gives back back to the owner. It's not counting the change.

[Dan LeBatard]

Why would you not say that loud enough for all of us to enjoy it? Why would you slur it? Bored.

[Sponsor]

I want to cut out how he said it originally.

[Dan LeBatard]

Please, please do that for me. Just go somewhere. Look, at the end of this segment, I' want nothing but a gladiator in the room. Nothing but a gladiator. I want you to go cut up for me what Greg Cody asked as a question so bored is he by the daily doing of our show that he's gassed by the third hour of doing.

[Billy]

I mean, it's back to back days for Greg.

[Dan LeBatard]

Really it is like Travis Kelsey says, this is the toughest job in the world.

[Dan LeBatard]

Don LeBatard is there. Back in my day.

[Stugatz]

There is, actually.

[Dan LeBatard]

What? Were you not gonna tell anyone?

[Ron McGill]

Wait a minute, you guys.

[Sponsor]

Guys, it's a Tuesday.

[Ron McGill]

Stugats.

[Dan LeBatard]

Here's your guy, Greg Cody with Back in My Day.

[Stugatz]

Okay, here it is. Sorry, adultery.

[Ron McGill]

For this one.

[Dan LeBatard]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the stug. Greg Cody does no longer have the stamina for what this requires. Weekly, every day, and by now of two consecutive days, he's usually fading. We will find that sound and we will play that sound for you in a second.

[Sponsor]

But I'm hearing from the team back there that you can't even make anything out. I'm about to hear that.

[Dan LeBatard]

Doesn't matter. You don't understand. Okay, listen to me. I want everyone to know what the frustration of my general Tuesdays are. He's had nothing since shouting into a crowd. Do it till you're satisfied. He's run out of material since then. Look at him drinking. Look. Drinking vigorously from the cup of satisfaction.

[Stugatz]

What about that kind of thing? And the bob and the bob hairdo.

[Dan LeBatard]

It was all before that. You had a spree. You had a hot streak. We fed you the ball. You took seven straight shots. You nailed all of them. You haven't listened since.

[Stugatz]

Hey, guy turned into that guy.

[Sponsor]

That wasn't you.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's a long time ago.

[Billy]

He's done his work for the day. He is back in my day.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, I heard he has one.

[Billy]

It's Tuesday.

[Stugatz]

Of course it's Tuesday.

[Dan LeBatard]

You know what, Ron? I've got no more questions for you. You've got to run to this presentation. Would you like to be here for a Greg Cody back in my day? We're about to unveil.

[Stugatz]

He's got to run the first fresh.

[Dan LeBatard]

Greg Cody back in my day. And I'm going to say about eight months, maybe more than that. Maybe.

[Ron McGill]

I've got to hear it. No, I'm staying. Those people can wait. Wow.

[Dan LeBatard]

Okay, Excell. He's coughing here at the beginning of it. Are you okay? Are you ready to do this, Greg?

[Stugatz]

We'll see.

[Dan LeBatard]

All right. And now it is time to take a trip down memory lane. Here's your guide, Greg Cody, with Back in my Day.

[Stugatz]

Cruise ships. Okay, first, a quick disclaimer. More like a preemptive strike. Way back in 2019, I did it back in my day about theme cruises, which are awful. Now, I'm here to talk about an even Bigger and more pervasive trend in the cruise industry. If you've seen any of the many TV ads for cruises lately, you know what I'm talking about. It's all about the the action and excitement. Now you see any of these ads, just watching them makes me exhausted. People dive bombing feet first down terrifying vertical water flumes, bungee jumping out over the ocean, surfing simulators, tidal waves, indoor skydiving, scaling a rock, zip lines. What am I in a marine boot camp? I didn't sign up for a thrill ride. I don't want to compete. I want to relax on my cruise, get my money's worth on the drink card and doze on the deck in a chaise lounge with a dog eared paperback on my lap. Preferably pride of a lion. Can't even do that nowadays. The decks are a raucous boulevard with serpentining conga, lines of dancers and Carmen Miranda hats and ping pong tables. Tell me the genius who thought that up. A ping pong ball weighs less than a tenth of an ounce versus gale force ocean wind. You can't relax anymore on a cruise deck because the ship has jogging trails. As health nuts who forgot they were on vacation are huffing it past consolation, checking their smartwatch to see if they're on pace. On pace for what? To be a more fit corpse. And why are there gyms on cruise ships in the first place? It's an oxymoron. It's like having a cocktail lounge in a synagogue. I don't need a gym to work out. I'm doing 12 ounce curls with a Miller Light bottle. You won't catch Greg Cody doing anything more strenuous on a cruise than playing a couple of holes of mini golf, watching my wife lose at bingo, getting annoyed during some trivia contest or praying at the roulette wheel. One other thing. It's not a Broadway or a Cirque du Soleil. I'm on a big slow boat. I don't need a concert or a show production. Just give me an open buffet and a bar every 25ft. Make cruise ships dull again. I'm Greg Cody and that's how it was back in my day.

[Dan LeBatard]

So hold on a second, Greg. And a very worthy return. You're saying that a gym in a cruise ship is like a cocktail bar in a synagogue?

[Stugatz]

Yeah, cocktail lounge. I believe I said a cocktail lounge.

[Dan LeBatard]

An important distinction because it's a funnier word. Lounge, cocktail bar. Not as funny as this is a prideful word thing of that it's tough to do it every week. Which is why we get them once every eight months, right?

[Stugatz]

Yeah, eight or nine months. Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

Are you guys in agreement with that? Every gym I've ever gone to on a cruise ship is filled with people I know know.

[Sponsor]

I didn't know they had a gym.

[Stugatz]

Same sad.

[Dan LeBatard]

Put it on the pole. I never get past the casino at Levitard show. Did you know they had gyms on cruise ships? And also is a gym in the cruise ship like a cocktail lounge in a synagogue?

[Stugatz]

Yeah.

[Sponsor]

Sometimes when I'm at that bar at the top by the pool, I'll see the track where people are walking and I always am like, get out of here, guy.

[Stugatz]

Seriously, with your little mile before you go to them. You're on vacation.

[Ron McGill]

I just got back. I just got back from the Galapagos Islands on a yacht doing Galapagos cruise. This is a wildlife. And there was a flippin gym on that yacht.

[Stugatz]

Can you believe it?

[Dan LeBatard]

Is this another one of these paid for trips that you've embezzled from the endowment?

[Ron McGill]

Absolutely.

[Dan LeBatard]

Tell me more because you haven't been around for a couple of weeks because you've been in the Galapagos. What have you been doing? Another amazing trip. Ron McGill sees the world while wearing fancy leather jackets.

[Ron McGill]

I'm going back to the Galapagos in May and then to Australia in June.

[Stugatz]

Nice.

[Dan LeBatard]

All right. Thank you, Ron. Good seeing you.

[Billy]

See you, Ron.

[Dan LeBatard]

Appreciate it. Always good seeing you. And thank you as always to our listeners. That segment never gets old. It really doesn't. I don't understand how it never gets old, but it never gets old because there's always new stories to talk about with him. I'm very happy about the return of back in my day. I'm very happy and thrilled that our audience has supported these books so much. I will say that it is a great career honor for our show for the audience to respect the written word enough to make books successful. The Pride of a Lion is wildly successful for a local. A small local publisher that continues to publish multiple Greg Cody books because it's profitable to publish Greg Cody books if the people from our world are involved in them, like Ron McGill and Stugatz and the listeners can support those things.

[Billy]

Yep. Greg, do you have a third book on the horizon or fourth book, I should say?

[Stugatz]

Yeah, Connie Finn's at 50, which I don't really count.

[Dan LeBatard]

Because you didn't sell it through the show. If you had, you would count it.

[Stugatz]

Exactly. Yes. They've approached me about another book.

[Billy]

Nice.

[Stugatz]

Yeah, I'm thinking about It.

[Dan LeBatard]

Look at you.

[Stugatz]

Yeah. My plates a little full right now, but we'll see.

[Dan LeBatard]

I like that. Jeremy continues to take chances by trying to make songs quickly. We will go to a new collection of music from Jeremy in a second. But as it relates to just Ron McGill in general. General. And everything he's doing with and for the Animals and Pride of a Lion, you guys are very happy with your book sales, correct? Like, are we done selling books? Are we. How does this work?

[Billy]

We're never done selling.

[Dan LeBatard]

Are you going to tell to the. Are you going to tell the audience at some point what it has done for you other than get you more publishing deals? Like, are you going to thank the audience for supporting the. The project?

[Stugatz]

I mean, I. I will thank the audience to the end of the earth. They've made all the books successful, including Stu Gotz's book. Book, Personal record book. It's the great thing about books is that they age well. You put out a book and it really never gets old. People are reading it all the time. Right.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's a great bathroom book.

[Stugatz]

It is.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's a book. It is the perfect size. Back. Back in. Back in my day is easy reading in the bathroom.

[Billy]

What I have learned about the book industry, Dan, and books in general is you're never. You're never done selling your book. You're never done with it. And so Father's Day is right around the corner. And that's a whole new revenue stream for me and Greg.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think that's how everyone thinks of Father's Day. It's the most romantic way to think of it as a whole nother revenue stream. That is the way to think of fatherhood, parenting in general. Chris, I have been. I've been watching here. Billy had to run. Billy's hair is on fire all the time. He's always producing, always producing. And so he had to go do Underdogs and he ran out of the room. And you have been working in the shadows with Stugots concocting. I can see you guys working while we do a live show. You've been trying to find this sound that Greg Cody made. And I've worked with you guys long enough and we can communicate without talking well enough that you guys are disappointed by the sound. I can tell that it's not good enough to get us the punctuation we need on this segment. But even not having heard it right, the part that I want to reveal to the audience is Greg Cody is a professional broadcaster who at this point in his career is largely bored with what we're doing around here, and he doesn't have much stamina for what we're doing. So after two hours, where he's really been the star and wonderful like this has been an epic Greg Cody Tuesday.

[Stugatz]

Yep.

[Ron McGill]

Epic.

[Dan LeBatard]

An old school. Ed. Greg Cody. Ed Cody, Greg Cody.

[Billy]

Fine, man. A Venmo fine. It's double on Tuesdays with Greg here.

[Dan LeBatard]

You know what? You're right. I've got. I've got to figure out. I've got. I've got a. You're right. I do. I owe. What it. Find the Venmo penalty. Tell me what it is. No, no, you got to do it now.

[Billy]

Find it.

[Dan LeBatard]

You got. Gotta. We gotta get the payment now. We can't just get the payoff.

[Sponsor]

Mistake is $1.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, it's not a mistake, though. It's just I called him Ed Cody, and that's a mistake on a name. It's a mistake. What is the Venmo fine bucket? What are the costs?

[Sponsor]

The Venmo fine bucket chart. $1 for a mistake, $2 for a cough or flem into the mic. $3 for pestering, $5 for tone, $7 not listening, $10 phone interruption. $50 if you kill someone. Fines are doubled on Tuesday. Only applies.

[Billy]

I mean, technically, he killed Greg and made him Ed, so.

[Dan LeBatard]

I didn't kill him. He could have lived somewhere else in witness protection as Ed. I did not kill him. There was no. There was no suggestion that I killed him.

[Stugatz]

No. I love the name Ed. So I'm going to give you a special dispensation and waive your fine.

[Billy]

Really?

[Stugatz]

Yeah. I'm going to wave.

[Sponsor]

Do you have that power?

[Stugatz]

Well, he do.

[Billy]

He owes $2. How about just $1?

[Stugatz]

All right. Put in a buck. Call Venmo.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's not all Venmo, you know.

[Stugatz]

Send Venmo. Hey, then a buck. Buck.

[Billy]

Eddie. Ball game, right?

[Stugatz]

Call Venmo, whoever Venmo is. Venmo. I assume it was somebody's name. Send him a buck. You don't need two bucks because I've waived a dollar.

[Billy]

Yes.

[Dan LeBatard]

Are you in charge of the fine, Bucket? I'm not. According to this fine system, I'm not charged by this.

[Stugatz]

Oh, well, you should be. I mean, that's absolutely a fine when you misname someone you know, especially one.

[Billy]

Of your oldest friends.

[Stugatz]

Yeah, I mean, nobody calls me Ed. Well, my wife does sometimes, but that's like a. We won't get into that.

[Dan LeBatard]

So let me hear this sound, please, without any further ado, because I am told that the Sound's not good enough now. And that there's gonna be no payoff. But I just want the audience to see what my Tuesday experience has been for 20 years. Okay. Which is I've watched Greg Cody get more and more tired. Me and the woman who loves him just agreed. My God, the comedy has gotten lazy. Late in age. He just throws out a couple of farts and expects everyone to laugh because, hey, buy my books. That's who am. I'll be working on Broadway. I deserve Las Vegas shows. I'm Hee Haw 3's Greg Cody.

[Stugatz]

Okay, Way to speak for me.

[Dan LeBatard]

I sell books and I sell out Las Vegas shows. I'm a musician. I'm a talent. I could have sold out a church, but for some reason, that event got canceled.

[Stugatz]

Yeah. I have been approached to do Broadway, but that's a whole another story. Continue.

[Billy]

You'd be good at it.

[Dan LeBatard]

Let me hear Greg Cody, Broadway Joe. Let's. I just want to tell you. This is. Ron McGill is talking and Greg Cody. Because I'm throwing. We're throwing into a video of a service dog that is on a counter paying a cashier in either cash or credit card. Greg Cody's trying to make the joke that the dog would not know if you shortchanged it because the dog does not know denominations. Here is that sound of Greg Cody making that joke in the bored, laziest way possible.

[Ron McGill]

The dog's been taught to take something that the owner gives it.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's what you're supposed to know what.

[Sponsor]

It is right in the middle of broadcast.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yes. Let's go, please. Again. Yes.

[Ron McGill]

The dog's been taught to take something that the owner gives it.

[Stugatz]

There it is.

[Dan LeBatard]

Great.

[Sponsor]

Feel like you should.

[Billy]

What was the exact mutter?

[Stugatz]

He's not trying at all in respect for Ron. Not wanting to interrupt him. I murmured I did a lot.

[Sponsor]

I make it out. Now you can hear him saying, I feel like you could.

[Ron McGill]

The dog's been taught to take something that the owner gives it.

[Stugatz]

I mean, did you finish the thought?

[Dan LeBatard]

Did you finish the thought? Was it half a mutter? Did. Was. Is that even.

[Stugatz]

It was half a mutter a month.

[Billy]

We knew what he was thinking.

[Stugatz]

Yeah, I mutt muttered for a dog. Get it?

[Dan LeBatard]

Mutt mud. You did not even finish the thought. You belched out four syllables of bored, muttered commentary that just gets in the way and isn't a complete thought.

[Stugatz]

Right. Out of respect to been taught to.

[Ron McGill]

Take something that the owner gives it.

[Sponsor]

The mutter.

[Billy]

You talked over him.

[Sponsor]

He sounds so indifferent.

[Ron McGill]

The dog's been taught to take something that the owner gives it.

[Stugatz]

It was a personal aside, not meant for the air. I muttered, I murmured.

[Billy]

He spoke it to a mic he.

[Dan LeBatard]

Shot his cannon on do it till you're satisfied.

[Ron McGill]

The dog's been taught to take something that the owner gives it.
