Notable Quote:

Mike Ryan: “If you're going to do the Taylor Swift thing, an entirely different category, pop music podcast, fine. But if this thing wins another sports podcast for having Taylor Swift on there, it's cheating.”

[Chris Cody]

How doers get more done.

[Dan LeBatard]

This is the Dan Levator show with the Stugats podcast.

[Stugots]

Stugats. You see yesterday, the AP released their first preseason top 25 poll.

[Dan LeBatard]

Exciting.

[Stugots]

That's what I'm talking about. So, I mean, because the coaches poll came out like last week. Get the hell out of here. These coach. They don't know.

[Mike Ryan]

They don't know anything.

[Stugots]

They don't. All right? But the AP poll, that's where it's at. And I got to tell you kind of dropped the ball.

[Chris Cody]

The ap.

[Mike Ryan]

Mike, big poll or not a big poll.

[Stugots]

They let a big poll.

[Chris Cody]

They let us down.

[Stugots]

They did.

[Jeremy]

Average size poll.

[Chris Cody]

So on. Miami opens the season against Notre Dame. That is a top 10 matchup officially. Any other.

[Stugots]

That's the game.

[Chris Cody]

Any other season, this would be the talk of the town. You got a top 10 matchup to open the season.

[Stugots]

Loaded.

[Chris Cody]

Week one, you have the Ohio State Buckeyes, reigning defending national champions, hosting the Texas Longhorn.

[Stugots]

I'm going to be there.

[Chris Cody]

Everyone assumed we're coming out the gates. Week one of the college football season. It's a final league corso headgear of his career out the gates. Noon. We get number one versus number two.

[Stugots]

That's what the coaches poll told you.

[Chris Cody]

To start the season. And the AP took that away from us.

[Mike Ryan]

Screwed it up.

[Jeremy]

He's got to go Brutus, right? Didn't he go Brutus on his first pick ever?

[Chris Cody]

He's got to go Brutus.

[Jeremy]

I mean, like full circle.

[Stugots]

I hate that.

[Jeremy]

It's that predictable.

[Billy]

I think he should go Texas. I think.

[Stugots]

I think you show some guts, all right? You show some guts and you go with the Longhorn helmets, okay? You're on the road there. You got the sea of people. You got all the buckets.

[Jeremy]

Everyone expects Brutus.

[Stugots]

I do something very similar because I host college football tailgate for ESPN Radio. We travel, me and Amber Wilson, we travel the entire country for ESPN Rio campus store. We, we're in Columbus, all right, for week number one. And from the Airstream studio at the end, we give our picks. And I got the foam fingers. You know, I'm not scared to. There'll be a whole crowd of people in front of me.

[Mike Ryan]

Foam fingers have one finger up. Not all.

[Stugots]

That's right.

[Chris Cody]

People love a visual gag on audio property, but that.

[Stugots]

That's right. That's why I do it. And there will be a sea of Buckeye fans in front of me because I don't know if, you know, the game's in Columbus, but if I want to pick Texas, I'm not giving away who I'm picking yet. I. I would never give it away. I tell you at the end of the show. All right, but if I want to pick Texas, I'll pick the road team right in front of your face. You can't be skirt. I would never be scared. All right. I got guts. So, Corso, I hope he shows some guts if he believes that Texas is going to win. Put on that Longhorn helmet. Solo guts.

[Chris Cody]

So he had a bunch of options for his final headgear. A lot of people theorize, hey, maybe he's a proud Seminole.

[Stugots]

Got Alabama there.

[Chris Cody]

Alabama over there. That's a good one. But it's where it all began. Columbus, Ohio. That's cool. And what would have made things perfect is if it were number one versus number two. But the Associated Press cares not for our storylines. And they put a team with a quarterback that failed to complete a single pass, a pass to a wide receiver in a big time bowl game. Why is Penn State number two over Texas? Texas opens the season against a national champion. Let's start the season number one versus number two.

[Mike Ryan]

Here's another question about the polls that make zero sense to me. Who's number one again?

[Chris Cody]

The Buckeyes.

[Mike Ryan]

Is it the Buckeyes?

[Chris Cody]

Yeah.

[Mike Ryan]

I thought it was Texas.

[Chris Cody]

No.

[Stugots]

Oh, no, it's Texas. Excuse me.

[Dan LeBatard]

It is Tex.

[Chris Cody]

Well, then I screwed all.

[Mike Ryan]

Who's number one again?

[Izzy]

It's Texas.

[Mike Ryan]

Who's favored in the matchup between Texas and Columbus? But then make them number one. Then just go ahead and make Ohio State the number one team if they open at home.

[Stugots]

No, but the idea is like if you were on a neutral field, what seems better?

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, but it's the preseason. You already know the schedule. Might as well make it make sense. You're going to have the number one team as an underdog in the first game of the season, where you're creating these rankings out of thin air. Make it make sense. Make the number one team the favorite.

[Stugots]

So as it turns out, number three favorite over number one.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, number three is number one, right? Yeah.

[Chris Cody]

Minus two and a half on that line.

[Dan LeBatard]

I have Top five polls if you guys want them. Number five, foul pole.

[Stugots]

Do you ever wonder maybe should be called a fair ball?

[Dan LeBatard]

No.

[Stugots]

I mean the ball hits, it's fair, it's not foul.

[Mike Ryan]

That's a good point.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's a fair point.

[Mike Ryan]

Do you like when the fair slash foul poles are like a drawing of something? Like sometimes it's a pencil.

[Dan LeBatard]

No.

[Mike Ryan]

No. Yeah, me neither. What's number four?

[Dan LeBatard]

Marcine Goat. The Polish Hammer.

[Mike Ryan]

It's a good one.

[Dan LeBatard]

Number three, Cooper Flag.

[Mike Ryan]

Flagpole Mike.

[Dan LeBatard]

Thank you. Number two, Bill Poan.

[Mike Ryan]

Number two, huh?

[Dan LeBatard]

You thought Lamar Jackson number one is staple. I mean Dick Pole.

[Mike Ryan]

Ah, yes, Dick.

[Dan LeBatard]

Those are my top five polls.

[Mike Ryan]

Number one for life.

[Dan LeBatard]

Dick poll.

[Stugots]

I mean, Penn State screwed it up coming at number two. Anyone believe Penn State?

[Dan LeBatard]

No. 1.

[Stugots]

Second best team in the country.

[Chris Cody]

Drew Aller's tall.

[Stugots]

Come on. James Franklin.

[Mike Ryan]

He's still there.

[Chris Cody]

Come on, it's enough. We all know how the playoffs last year. Not the biggest story though in college football from yesterday. The biggest story is brand new starting quarterback, QB1 at Oklahoma. John Mateer, who was at Washington State last year and I was a fan, really fun player to watch. He's now at Oklahoma. He's in hot water because people found his Venmo transactions and his Venmo transactions were public at the time. And he had Venmo transactions. Two different ones that I saw. One sports gambling and the other one was sports gambling. USC versus ucla.

[Stugots]

Hold on, like, did he put that in the notes?

[Chris Cody]

That was. Yeah, that was the title of the transaction. This was when John Mateer would have been a freshman in college. Obviously very much against the rules. Now Oklahoma has come out and said they believe that John Mateer has not gambled on sports. This led to a bunch of Internet sleuthing in which people were going through other quarterbacks transactions to see if they were public. And some embarrassing stuff. Was there some. Some quarterbacks got wise as soon as this story broke and deleted all their transactions. Said everything to private to make sure that there would be no sleuthing for people, the young generation. I've never gotten this. When it comes to Venmo, I never know. I don't need to know what you're paying for. I don't know. You're a sociopath if you have your Venmo transactions public. It's weird. Scott, you have your Venmo transactions public.

[Stugots]

I know.

[Chris Cody]

Stop that.

[Dan LeBatard]

I thought you closed it for me.

[Chris Cody]

Stop that. But people were going around and I have friends that do this. They like to make the Venmo transaction, a joke. You know, they. They buy around.

[Stugots]

Yeah, I've done that.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah. Yeah, thanks for the drugs. Stuff like that, right. Sans context, no one knows that you're just Josh and your boys right now. People are going to your transactions and if you put an eight ball emoji, they're not gonna assume billiards.

[Mike Ryan]

What's your worst non joke? One of those. The one that made you go private. Cuz I've got one and I've also got one of a friend who. I'll just say it because it doesn't matter. It was a couple that got divorced and it was a very simple divorce settlement. So simple that the payments were made via Venmo.

[Chris Cody]

That's a tough way to wait.

[Mike Ryan]

And it just said 1/24 of the first, so it's clearly had to split it up with a 20. And you see, and it's just so funny. It's like watching a reality show on your Venmo. And when that 24th month hit, boy, did I celebrate.

[Chris Cody]

Well, I paid attention to it. When Signalgate was happening, people were starting to go through government officials who didn't know that they didn't have their transaction set to private. I fix that stuff real quick because I don't need someone prying around any of that. Independent of whether or not I josh somebody and make a transaction that's not actually accurate and just making a joke about it.

[Mike Ryan]

Stu, you'd appreciate this. What made me go to private is when I first got onto Venmo and I sent Anthony some money. I was on a road trip and when I got back home, and this is like when I first started smoking weed, like in my mid-30s. And so I was like, ooh, I don't have a device with which to smoke it at home. It broke. And I sent him some money and said, hey, go buy me a little small glass pipe for when I get home. And he responded via text, you know, these are public. And I was like, oh, shit.

[Stugots]

I learned, you know, I was told, hey, this is public. You should turn this off. Because I didn't know how it worked where I was doing a couple of transactions for like sponsors on my podcast, you know, it's. I don't want anyone to know what I charge in that kind of deal, you know. So I was told, hey, you got to turn it off.

[Dan LeBatard]

They were sending their payments to you via Venmo.

[Stugots]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And like, again, I don't want everyone to be able to see what I charge for sponsorship.

[Chris Cody]

So what do we Believe here, though. I mean, sports gambling, usc, UCLA is pretty specific. He could be joking. That would be the defense. Because people do tend to joke occasionally with this app. But what kind of investigation are we doing now? Because you can't be gambling if you're a quarter. You can't be gambling if you're a college football athlete.

[Stugots]

Don't you have to believe that he is. Maybe he's stupid, but don't you have to believe that he is smart enough not to joke like that?

[Mike Ryan]

Because how do these things get found out? It's because a lot of money goes to something suspicious, right? So if you're just putting down regular old bets within a game that you're playing or teams that a lot of people bet on, your only way you're going to get caught really is if you label it in your Venmo transaction. So I don't think he's that dope.

[Chris Cody]

This was research, though. This was. This was apparently when he was a freshman in college. So someone.

[Stugots]

Do we know what the money was?

[Chris Cody]

Let me see if that was put out there, but I've just seen the screen caps of sports gambling. Sports gambling, usc, ucla.

[Mike Ryan]

That's a great question, Zaz. Do we care about if it is just.

[Stugots]

It's a $20.

[Dan LeBatard]

No.

[Stugots]

The reason I asked him, because I think that could help. Help us know if it's real or if it was a joke.

[Chris Cody]

Right? Because if he was joking around and it was actually for Sodi Pops, you're not spending $500 there. But how. But what's a unit guy that wasn't. Remember, he just took over. He took over for Cam Ward at Washington State last year. He wasn't playing at this point. He wasn't getting nil.

[Dan LeBatard]

But to Izzy's question, if it is real and it's a $25 bet, do we really care?

[Stugots]

I mean, well, no, we don't care. I don't think any of us individually ever.

[Mike Ryan]

But should we like is. Nobody's going to influence the result of. Let me rephrase. Most people wouldn't try to influence the results of a bet over $20, right? You're just doing it. Hey, if I happen to get my, you know, three touchdowns today, I'm going to go home to an extra hundred bucks, right?

[Dan LeBatard]

I got $12 and 50 cents for you.

[Stugots]

Speaking of privacy, did you guys see this? I was told this. I think it was like two days ago. Two days or three days ago, a new feature. Was this a PSA I'm doing right now? All right. Because I'll bet a lot of people listening to watch, they don't know this. I'm gonna help you out right now, all right? You don't even need to thank me. I'm doing out the goodness of my own heart. Where Instagram. Apparently there's a new feature where they have a. There's maps where you click on the map and you could see the direct location your friends on Instagram are currently at. A buddy of mine, text me a few days goes, hey man, a new feature came out on Instagram today. I'm on it right now. And I could see exactly where you are. And I went and looked at like, yep, that's my home. That's where I am.

[Mike Ryan]

Doesn't matter what you post, you know exactly. Like if I'm posting a random picture from 5 months ago and I put on the location, hey, this is in Italy. It's still going.

[Stugots]

No, this is a different feature. No, when you click on the direct messages on Instagram, there's, there's a map and you click on the map and you could see on it where all it is. If it's on, you could see where all your friends are located to like the the foot. Where they at. You could see the.

[Dan LeBatard]

Do you want to see that? Do you want your friends knowing exactly where you are?

[Chris Cody]

It seems weird.

[Stugots]

It's creepy with my kids. This is my home.

[Mike Ryan]

No, you know, it's weird. That's what I find weird is the friends. And this is a young thing. The friends that all share their locations all the time. Like that's. It's too much. I accidentally share a location with somebody in our hockey chat and. And so it's really only two people that I share locations with. This Anthony. And it's this bright side Mike. And I have no interest in knowing where bright side Mike is 24 hours of the day.

[Stugots]

Look at this. Look at. Billy and Jeremy are feverishly on their phones right now.

[Dan LeBatard]

This.

[Stugots]

Yep. They're trying to turn it off. You should.

[Izzy]

I don't know how you do it.

[Stugots]

I mean, I'll show you.

[Dan LeBatard]

I guess I'm still trying to log out of Venmo.

[Stugots]

Why do these apps do that? Like, why would they think that? I want everyone to know literally where I am. Not the city where I am, but my home.

[Chris Cody]

That I understand that question then. I mean, Instagram is often used The. The most common application is users telling the world where they are.

[Stugots]

But not to the address.

[Chris Cody]

Not to the address. But people tag people. I mean, you can find out exactly where the Clips concert is tonight.

[Stugots]

If you're stugots. They're like. They're all fear.

[Jeremy]

Like it has to be somewhere.

[Stugots]

Right.

[Dan LeBatard]

But there.

[Billy]

There's a search location within settings.

[Dan LeBatard]

I just asked Taylor to do it.

[Stugots]

Right.

[Chris Cody]

But there are some times where people want to actually post that. Then they have to where they are. You know how you can geotag certain places if you're at a bar or something.

[Stugots]

Did you click on the globe there, Chris? You. Yes, I. I just got it. You go to the messages up top. You click on. See right there. Right there. I could show for people looking on. On screen there. See, you got the people here and you click on the globe which says map. And then on the top right, you click on that little settings thing and you could turn your specific location off. But like I'm looking at it right now and I'm looking at the map of the country and it's like there's a bunch of people. Looks you got. There's a bunch of people just in Florida. Look out right there. I could see where they are.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, I don't like it.

[Stugots]

I could see where these people are located right now in the state of Florida. It's Kind of shady.

[Billy]

This is really upsetting, right? Yeah, I'm not happy about this at all.

[Stugots]

My buddy, I text him back, oh, good looking out. Because I don't know about this kind of stuff. And it came out, and then I looked online. I was like, you know, how do you turn it off? And it said, you know, today, whatever was like, August 6th, a new feature came out on Instagram's, like, holy shit.

[Billy]

I also appreciate you waiting until we're not on the live show to tell us all of this that way.

[Stugots]

Oh, that was good. Looking out by me too.

[Dan LeBatard]

Right?

[Billy]

Done to give us plenty of time to turn the setting off after the show.

[Stugots]

Cool.

[Billy]

It won't get published right away, and that way nobody's going to have.

[Dan LeBatard]

Did you figure it out yet?

[Billy]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's pretty simple.

[Dan LeBatard]

Take care of mine.

[Stugots]

And you could see all the people who. You could see, I don't know, like ex girlfriends or something. Where is this globe?

[Mike Ryan]

You speak up, top of your dms.

[Chris Cody]

Turn off sutsa so people can't find out where Taylor is.

[Billy]

Where it shows a note.

[Dan LeBatard]

Here, here. Can you help me out? Yeah, yeah, let's go.

[Stugots]

All right, let's.

[Dan LeBatard]

Where?

[Stugots]

Where's your Instagram?

[Dan LeBatard]

I have no idea. Where's my Instagram?

[Stugots]

I think here it is. All right, here it is. Says click on go down his direct messages. Yep, there you go. Helpful. H st. You may have, like, a super old version of Instagram. I don't think you have the map.

[Dan LeBatard]

Great.

[Mike Ryan]

That's a good thing.

[Stugots]

It's a really old version. I think you're all right. You don't use that very often.

[Dan LeBatard]

Did you call me player?

[Stugots]

Yeah, of course. You know, there you go. All right, so I'm glad I was able to help you guys. There you have.

[Mike Ryan]

I am currently not sharing my location. Never was. But thank you for the freak out moment, Zed.

[Stugots]

Okay, well, I. I mean, I was sharing my location when I was told that was not cool. All of a sudden, someone shows up at my door. Hey, Zaslow, I know where you live now because of Instagram. Screw that, man. Jeremy, look. Stu. Guys. Look how confused. Really upset.

[Billy]

I'm trying to help Mike Ryan right now, but he has a slightly outdated version of Instagram, so I'm trying to figure out how.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yes. All right.

[Chris Cody]

Is that the key?

[Billy]

Oh, there you are. No, there is that. Hold on. Let's see, let's see. I can. I can help you from here. All right, so we're going to swipe up here on notes now.

[Stugots]

You're I did a good thing, though, I believe.

[Billy]

Join your friends on map.

[Dan LeBatard]

I mean, a good thing.

[Billy]

Bad radio, perhaps Good news.

[Mike Ryan]

What are you talking about? This is fantastic. It's very informative. There's people at home. Hopefully they're not driving and trying to listen to this and trying to adjust.

[Stugots]

Their people are driving, freaking out now they want to turn this. Yeah, but yours was still on.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, I know exactly where Brian the Beast London is right now.

[Dan LeBatard]

Get it Where?

[Billy]

But that's the thing is you share your location with an app like this because, hey, if you're trying to post like, hey, I was at. For example, if I'll post something from a Marlins game, hey, I'm at Lone Depot Park. And so I'm adding that location. And it's going to be like, oh, can we access your location? Because. And you might say yes, because you want to make sure you're clicking on the right thing there. And then all of a sudden your location is part of this app. Not thinking that all of a sudden every single person that follows you is.

[Stugots]

Going to the address to the.

[Billy]

To the pinpoint of the address where you are within the building. It's horrifying.

[Mike Ryan]

Wow. Brightside Mic is in Canada.

[Chris Cody]

Niagara Falls. We actually don't know which one.

[Billy]

We're all done.

[Stugots]

It's glad I was able to help you guys. Let me take your mind off of. Of this very troubling situation. Jeremy, we did a top five yesterday. Mike Ryan did a top five yesterday of greatest movie opening scenes.

[Dan LeBatard]

You have cliffhanger.

[Stugots]

You have. Oh, that's a good one. What happened?

[Jeremy]

Was it on there?

[Chris Cody]

Wasn't even on.

[Dan LeBatard]

I just assumed it was on there for you.

[Chris Cody]

Honestly, it should have grabbed the top five. I made a mistake.

[Stugots]

You're right.

[Chris Cody]

Absolutely right.

[Mike Ryan]

When you hear the name cliffhanger, you don't think great opening scene.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yes, that's what made the most strange.

[Chris Cody]

Yes, I do.

[Dan LeBatard]

Greatest opening scene.

[Mike Ryan]

To think of a great cliffhanger.

[Dan LeBatard]

But maybe that's just the final 90 minutes. Awful, though. Not.

[Chris Cody]

Stop being so literal.

[Stugots]

But Jeremy has his own version. Tell us what it is.

[Billy]

It's the top five animated movie opening scenes. Because mentioned in Mike's was up, which.

[Stugots]

Is all time profoundly sad.

[Billy]

Truly one of the saddest things I've ever seen. And I've realized in going through this, a lot more of them are sad than are necessarily uplifting. No Olis. So starting with number five, Tarzan.

[Mike Ryan]

In.

[Billy]

Tarzan, you see both the gorilla families and Tarzan's family go through a similar feeling of loss. But what it does is it introduces you to Phil Collins on the soundtrack. And that's the most important part, is you hear one of these songs, you're like, oh, we're off to an unbelievable start. Number four. And this is tied four, because it comes from the same series, Shrek and Shrek 2.

[Chris Cody]

Is that when he's bathing?

[Billy]

That's the first one is when the. When he's bathing and you're getting the title sequence, and he's, like, spitting out mud and all of it says Mike Myers.

[Mike Ryan]

And then that's what you get.

[Billy]

And then you get Accidentally in Love by the Counting Crows to start Shrek 2 during their honeymoon season. Oh, my God. Accidentally in Love. Very underrated song. Number three. The Lion King, of course.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yep.

[Billy]

That note.

[Chris Cody]

Let's go for it.

[Dan LeBatard]

I didn't know.

[Chris Cody]

Go all out.

[Billy]

Number two. This is another wholly depressing one. Finding Nemo.

[Mike Ryan]

Disney writers, huge on death.

[Billy]

Yeah, you got to kill somebody right at the beginning. Normally it's a parent.

[Stugots]

Oh, that's right. The mother dies. Finding Nemo.

[Billy]

Yep. And by the way, all of the kids outside of Nemo, remember, there's an attack from what I think is a barracuda. If I look back at it.

[Mike Ryan]

That's right. The body count on that one was huge.

[Billy]

I mean, it's.

[Chris Cody]

It's.

[Billy]

It's near 100.

[Chris Cody]

Was Bambi's mom dying the first?

[Billy]

I don't know if that's the opening scene, which is why I didn't include it. It would have been. Would have been a good one. And then, of course, number one is up. I mean, there's no debate. I know it was in the spirit of. Of the top five, and that was already there, but it has to be.

[Stugots]

Number one of the five that you gave, there are super sad.

[Billy]

Yeah, no, most of them are. I came to realize as I was going through my list, I was realizing almost every single animated movie starts with tragedy.

[Jeremy]

Getting a good look into Jeremy here.

[Mike Ryan]

What about the Lego Movie? Didn't they do the Everything is awesome at the very beginning?

[Dan LeBatard]

That's the best.

[Billy]

But come on, let's be real.

[Chris Cody]

Which.

[Billy]

Which ones are better?

[Stugots]

All right, so we brought out the big guns today when we heard that Taylor Swift is going to be on the the New Heights podcast. That's why Stu Gotz is here. He made the drive, and Stu Gotts is with us. But I'll be perfectly honest with you, I don't know what the hell is going on with this Taylor Swift. Like, can somebody explain to me what the whole to do was last night she. So she's going to be on this Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce podcast. And what like it came out. Put out a teaser, but it came out like 12:12am on 8 12, which is today. There's some kind of non.

[Billy]

That's what that's all about. She's really into teasing everything with. With numbers. So her number is. Is 13, I believe her birthday is on the 13th. That's always. Everything is tied together. You end up in the Taylor Swift algorithm and you, you grow to learn that there is no greater.

[Stugots]

My algorithm is all I gotta tell you.

[Billy]

It's. It's a. It's a big deal. So she's announcing seemingly a new album on this podcast. My. My assumption is that 12 albums, huh. She'll be revealing all of the details of it. Everyone is very excited because they got the color scheme of what this album will be. I believe it's called the Life of a Showgirl. That's exciting people for. Yeah. Hey, look. Taylor Swift fans dive into every single detail. I've already seen people discussing that the colors of the album seem to be the way that copper begins versus where it gets when it's oxidized and thus to show that it's the wearing of a career and can you hear. No. Look, I sort of feel the same way and at this point know all of this. I, I told you I ended up in the Taylor Swift algorithm because I like Taylor Swift's music. Like I, I do like her music. I'm a little. I'm intrigued to see what this album is because I at this point have not been. I am not nearly as in on all things Taylor Swift as I, I once was.

[Stugots]

Go on.

[Billy]

You know, I, I wouldn't say it, but I think some people would say that it feels like over the last few years, some of.

[Stugots]

That's a.

[Billy]

Some of what she's been doing has felt like a cash grab. You know, I wouldn't say it, but it sort of feels like if you knew you were negotiating for the rights of your. Your own masters to come back, that putting out the Taylor's version and constantly making people pay money to access your music early only to release it later and then release really long albums so that you could sort of gain game how the streaming processes work to move your way up the charts. And some people would say that that's, you know, maybe an issue.

[Dan LeBatard]

But you're not saying.

[Mike Ryan]

Let me.

[Stugots]

Some people.

[Mike Ryan]

Let me add this, this, this Kelsey Posket, what's it called? New Heights.

[Billy]

New Heights.

[Mike Ryan]

I have a little bit of a rivalry with New Heights because I was up for, I forget the podcast award, one of the potties. And it was a sports podcast for by four years of Heat Podcast. And they were in the same category. And of course they won it. And of course they're going to win every damn sports podcast. They have Taylor Swift on the podcast. Stick to sports, people. If you're going to do the Taylor Swift thing, an entirely different category, pop music podcast, fine. But if this thing wins another sports podcast for having Taylor Swift on there, it's cheating.

[Billy]

Going to bring calling for a single record for podcast downloads.

[Mike Ryan]

It's like ever not a sports podcast.

[Billy]

She's going to be announcing details of her new album on there. And, and, and some people would say that going on the New Heights podcast, which is her boyfriend's podcast, and you know, using that as an opportunity to get them some more downloads, some people would say that that just plays into all of the very capitalistic nature of what she's been doing over the last few years and that even the artistry has potentially suffered because when you're releasing these really long albums that don't really seem to have any editing there to sort of pare things down and make sure you're getting the best 12 or 13 songs, well, some people would say that that's just the cash grab that was being intimated before. I would never, I would never say that there's nothing, nothing wrong with anything that Taylor Swift ever does. But some people would say that, you.

[Mike Ryan]

Know, when that said go on, I didn't think he mean this long.

[Dan LeBatard]

Right. Was Jaws on Mike's list?

[Billy]

Jaws family would get a lot of joy.

[Chris Cody]

Oh, I. For. For Jaws, that was Jeremy lamenting the lack of an editor.

[Billy]

I believe I am literally this show's editor.

[Izzy]

So that's the problem. I'm just trying to live up to be the version of me my dogs think I am. Dopey and Izzy. They assume I've got it all together. Meanwhile, I'm googling can dogs eat watermelon?

[Chris Cody]

Don Lebatard it sounds to me like.

[Billy]

Everybody could use a hug, because a.

[Chris Cody]

Hug is always the right size stuff. All I have put in my body today is three cups of coffee and.

[Billy]

An entire cup of Go to the panel.

[Jeremy]

Don't let him fool you. He said in the break that he's jittery.

[Dan LeBatard]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugats. Foreign.

[Stugots]

I couldn't name you four Taylor Swift songs. Oh, shut up.

[Izzy]

You could. There's no yeah, but if they played.

[Dan LeBatard]

I knew you were trouble you would recognize them. But he doesn't know the titles.

[Izzy]

No, but. But if they played, you would know what they were.

[Billy]

You look guilty as sin right now.

[Stugots]

I if they played that, like if they played the song, would I know it's Taylor Swift?

[Izzy]

No, like if. No, no, no. Like if they played the Taylor song, be like, I know that song.

[Dan LeBatard]

Right.

[Izzy]

You don't know it's her.

[Dan LeBatard]

You don't. It's not the name of the song. Right.

[Stugots]

I don't know.

[Dan LeBatard]

Maybe.

[Stugots]

Maybe like five.

[Billy]

When you try to think of when a blank space goes into your head.

[Stugots]

I mean, I know. Shake it off.

[Izzy]

You don't, like, participate in society. You're just not going to come across.

[Stugots]

I just. I. I have the music that I like. I have the music that I like and I listen to. Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

Give me.

[Stugots]

Give me that 90s grunge, Pearl Jam, Alice and Chains, Soundgarden, Nirvana. What else do I need? Give me Zeppelin.

[Mike Ryan]

You almost forgot the in chains part.

[Stugots]

Well, I didn't want to. I was going to say Alice, you know, but I don't want it to go. I don't want to go over your head. Like, I want to be inclusive. If I just say Alice, it's kind of exclusive. I don't want to give all that impression.

[Chris Cody]

Did you ever think that they were called Allison Chains?

[Dan LeBatard]

I did.

[Jeremy]

I saw a sad project being advertised at a local casino recently. The Joe Perry Project.

[Izzy]

Yeah.

[Stugots]

Oh, he's done.

[Chris Cody]

Seems. That seems fun.

[Jeremy]

Oh, he's done it before. My bad.

[Stugots]

Yeah, I think he's been doing that for a while.

[Jeremy]

I just saw it as. Oh, Steven Tyler doesn't want to do it anymore. So now we're calling it the Joe Perry Prize.

[Dan LeBatard]

It was just a funny time.

[Stugots]

I think they're coming to Hard Rock Live.

[Jeremy]

Yeah, that's where. Yeah, yeah, that's the casino.

[Dan LeBatard]

That.

[Jeremy]

I wasn't saying.

[Stugots]

Do you think they play Aerosmith songs?

[Chris Cody]

I don't know.

[Jeremy]

It has another. And then at the bottom, it's like with this guy from Aerosmith and this guy from. What was the band? I think Aerosmith, the Black Keys or something. Or the Crows. Some other guy.

[Dan LeBatard]

Keys. Crows, yeah.

[Chris Cody]

Has to be Crows. Keys are just two dudes. I'd really eat into the Black Keys lineup.

[Stugots]

All right, so Taylor Swift thing is.

[Billy]

Happening tonight, or it's tomorrow, Seemingly tomorrow. She's going to go, right? The 13th, as I was mentioning. 13. Of course, her number. Look, it seems this is going to be a big deal. And it seems like she's working with some of the producers that made some of her, like, biggest hits from several years ago in Max Martin and Shellback. And Max Martin's been making hits for years and years and years and years. And one of the greatest. Basically all the music from the late 90s, early 2000s that we were talking about with the boy bands, you know, a few weeks ago. He's been the producer on that and then everything since.

[Izzy]

Still out there.

[Billy]

It's been a long time since they've made music together. She's primarily worked with Aaron Desen or the national and J. Antonov.

[Chris Cody]

Oh, thank God we got away from him.

[Billy]

And so they've made great music together. But at this point, I think she wants to go back. If you look at the. The life of a showgirl or whatever they're calling it. All right, this is just me talking.

[Mike Ryan]

I think you're driving Zaz advocate.

[Stugots]

I'm calling it on the Taylor Swift stuff, guys.

[Billy]

Love you too.

[Mike Ryan]

That's actually a good plan. Zaz's plan to say, hey, let me pitch something to Jeremy. He'll work out the clock and I can just go home right now.

[Dan LeBatard]

Right. No one will notice. Jeremy, how much more did you have left on that? Please don't. I'm just. Just. No, I don't want it. I just want to know how much more you had left.

[Billy]

Not much. Probably two sentences. That's normally how it goes.

[Dan LeBatard]

Dick. Thank you. Is there any chance that Travis proposes.

[Chris Cody]

To Taylor Swift on the pot, I wonder.

[Billy]

Actually already happened and there will be a reveal.

[Jeremy]

Would be the least romantic way it ever happened.

[Dan LeBatard]

Worse than a stadium.

[Jeremy]

That would be worse than a stadium.

[Dan LeBatard]

I don't think so.

[Izzy]

If he does it at a stadium, it's a game after a game on a field. It's not like he's doing it at a stadium during, you know, the Panthers. But if he did it final game.

[Jeremy]

I think that would be better. If he did it at a Panthers game, like, the camera goes to him and gets down on money then doing it on his podcast.

[Chris Cody]

He's not the only one that plays stadiums.

[Dan LeBatard]

I mean, I think that proposing on a podcast, to me, I'm not saying it's a great way of doing it, but proposing at a hockey game is the worst way of doing it.

[Mike Ryan]

I think I thought he was saying at one of his games, which I would be like, well, if I'm the coach, I'm not happy about that. Like, Travis, you seem a little distracted. You're about to, like, propose at the commercial break in the second quarter, but you're saying at a different sporting event.

[Jeremy]

Well, Mike was saying at her concert, essentially.

[Chris Cody]

I mean, whatever happened doing this in an Olive Garden, you make a reservation, you play a little secret game with a maitre d, and, you know, maybe.

[Mike Ryan]

You put the ring on top of one of the breadsticks. As they come in, you have to.

[Dan LeBatard]

Put it in the breadstick.

[Chris Cody]

That was a clap. No. What Inside the breadstick.

[Jeremy]

That happened on Modern Family. That happened next to Cam and Mitchell.

[Izzy]

And it did not go well.

[Billy]

I know I barely spoke today, but.

[Dan LeBatard]

When you did, you really spoke.

[Izzy]

Yeah.

[Chris Cody]

When you did, is it near?

[Jeremy]

It lingered.

[Chris Cody]

Did not feel that way.

[Izzy]

What'd you want to talk about that we didn't get to. That's not Taylor Swift related.

[Chris Cody]

It's a big week for the Marlins, huh? Well, I'll talk to Billy about that. You're doing something online, right?

[Izzy]

Yeah, yeah. I'll be on a podcast. There's invite.

[Chris Cody]

So is it a live watch along or.

[Izzy]

I think so, based on how it was presented. I wasn't sure.

[Chris Cody]

I know that they didn't seem to.

[Dan LeBatard]

Know more than Billy does.

[Izzy]

I was asking.

[Chris Cody]

I'm not the one on the podcast.

[Izzy]

Yeah.

[Chris Cody]

So where are the Marlins now? Because I follow it through you guys. I know that they had that huge series, one of the bigger regular season series in their franchise history. They swept the Yankees and then they had an opportunity to keep the momentum going against the Astros. They did not. So why is it a big week for the Marlins now? Are they still in contention?

[Izzy]

Well, they had a very bad series against the Braves. Five game series against the Braves. Lost four out of five and five game series, huh? Yeah. So they have now a series against the Guardians. Guardians are hot now. You don't want to be facing the Guardians right now. Then they have another series right after that against the Red Sox and then they have the Cardinals and they have the Blue Jays and they have the Braves again.

[Chris Cody]

Seems like a tough stretch.

[Dan LeBatard]

Seems like a big month.

[Stugots]

Yeah.

[Izzy]

What I was saying yesterday, and I don't know think Jeremy agrees with me on this. As I said, nice run for the Marlins, but this week seems like the end of the road in terms of the. The playoff chances. Maybe not. But maybe, maybe so because they went from getting right back to.500, from being 16 games under.500 to back to four games under.500 again.

[Billy]

I wouldn't disagree with you on that. This is a huge week for them. They have six games against two of the better teams in baseball right now in terms of the Garden Guardians and the Red Sox. And if they can come out of that, basically with a.500 record for the week, you'd feel pretty good. They lost four out of five to the Braves from Thursday to Sunday.

[Dan LeBatard]

Right.

[Billy]

And they remained six games back of the Mets. They didn't lose any ground for that. Final wild card spot because the Mets have been falling apart on their own. One of the teams ahead of them in the wild card is the St. Louis Cardinals, who they'll get in their first series back at home after the Red Sox and the Guardians. So if they can find. Find a way to play some good baseball this week, they're in the position where, hey, it went about as poorly as you could have imagined after that huge win against the Yankees by losing two out of three against the Astros and losing four out of five against the Braves. But they lost no ground from where they were at the start of the week. And with six games back and seven games to go against them, they did it against you.

[Chris Cody]

They have a chance.

[Dan LeBatard]

It seems like Billy is saying the season is over and Jeremy wants to agree with him, but he's not agree.

[Izzy]

Well, I mean, the thing is, is.

[Billy]

Am I the reporter for the nine games at home after this stretch? Yes. Do I want people to watch? Yeah.

[Izzy]

I mean, it's. It's been a great run. You should support the team. But realistically, it's incredible that they got back to.500 when being 16 games under.500. But, like, if you're going to actually make the playoffs, you got to be like 10 or more games over.500, probably. And to get there, you'd have to play 26 games over.500 to get to that point where it says.

[Dan LeBatard]

Which is not happening.

[Izzy]

Well, yeah, I mean, what they've done has been very impressive. However, it seems like, you know, you win couple, you lose a couple, you're just then hovering around.500, which ultimately won't be enough, probably, to get into the playoffs. So it's not to discount what they've done so far. It was an incredible run. They just got off to such a bad start that they kind of shot themselves in the foot also.

[Chris Cody]

Was a Yankee thing, a bit of fool's gold because they are not playing well.

[Izzy]

No, I mean, it's. It's the. It was a. It's a chippy team that fights back. They're in every game. The Yankees are struggling right now. They had a horrific start to their newly acquired closer, who, like, pooped all over the bed. But, you know, maybe. Maybe the Marlins get hot here. But even if they go, what would you have to do to get back to.500 in the next six games? They go four and two.

[Dan LeBatard]

They're at.500. Yeah.

[Izzy]

They're still.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah. No two games below.500. Right?

[Billy]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

I did math right.

[Billy]

You have to go 5 and 1 to get back to 500 before they get on.

[Mike Ryan]

So close.

[Dan LeBatard]

You were almost with me, too.

[Chris Cody]

That math. Who cares?

[Dan LeBatard]

I corrected it quickly, though.

[Chris Cody]

It's football season, baby. Everyone's 00.

[Dan LeBatard]

So much easier with the records, you know?

[Chris Cody]

Oh, so, so easy.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yes.

[Chris Cody]

That tricky 17th game. Sometimes I forget about it.

[Dan LeBatard]

Right.

[Chris Cody]

It really changed. Although it made, you know, Friday I celebrated Jeff Fisher Day.

[Dan LeBatard]

Did you?

[Chris Cody]

Because it was eight and eight.

[Dan LeBatard]

Ah, we're not.

[Chris Cody]

We're not making Jeff Fishers anymore. He's got that all to himself.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, Mike Tomlin.

[Chris Cody]

You can't go 8, 9 anymore.

[Dan LeBatard]

You're right.

[Chris Cody]

You can go 8, 8 and 1.

[Dan LeBatard]

Right.

[Chris Cody]

But you can't go 8, 9 anymore. That's going to be Jeff Fisher's forever.

[Mike Ryan]

You know, you always got to ask an 8 and 8 baby if they were born in 88, because then it might be the most special person ever.

[Dan LeBatard]

Really? You have to ask?

[Mike Ryan]

You have to. I mean.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah.

[Mike Ryan]

What? Always the next question. When you say, what's your birthday? August 8th.

[Chris Cody]

Of course, when they say 94, you're kind of like, loser.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah.

[Chris Cody]

That does nothing for me.

[Dan LeBatard]

Are you guys believing in the brewers again?

[Chris Cody]

You know, I've been thinking about this a lot.

[Dan LeBatard]

Is a joke.

[Chris Cody]

I'm glad that you asked.

[Jeremy]

I. Danilo Gallinare, born on 8, 8.

[Dan LeBatard]

88.

[Mike Ryan]

Wow. He's the one.

[Chris Cody]

He's the one, yeah.

[Izzy]

You ever talk to him? You ever ask him that question?

[Mike Ryan]

I've never had. Did you know he was a former number one pick in the draft? Jeremy, do you believe in the Brewers?

[Billy]

Sure.

[Dan LeBatard]

What about the brew crew?

[Jeremy]

That was tight. Jeremy.
