Episode Overview

This postgame episode, recorded live at the Elser Hotel in Miami, features Dan Le Batard and his regular crew—Greg Cote, Jonathan Zaslow, Tony, and Juju Gotti—discussing sports controversies, pop culture, and the unique quirks of fandom. The heart of the show centers on Juju presenting two “cases” for the comedic, honorary Judge Zaslow to rule on, while the group also tackles WNBA news, social media surprises, and their wildly popular audience polls. The tone is playful, spirited, and loaded with the group's signature banter.

• [00:28] – [01:22]

  • Case #1: MLB Video – Patriotism or Bullying?

    • The group debates: Is aggressively forcing someone to stand patriotism or bullying?
      • Judge Zaslow: “Telling someone to stand up, aggressively telling him...smacks him in the back of the head, then he stands up meekishly.” (03:05)
      • Dan and others argue it’s both, but ultimately denounce the physical intimidation.
      • Quote: “I cannot side with the guy who smacked the other guy, because whether you’re offended or not...you can’t then just smack them. That’s not appropriate behavior.”
        – Dan Le Batard (03:30)

  • Case #2: Concert Etiquette – Is it fair to ask about seat location before accepting tickets?

    • Juju describes concert ticket offers: is it rude to ask where the seats are?
    • Group consensus: It’s fair to ask, especially with a “reputation to uphold,” but there’s etiquette involved.
      • “You can’t be sitting up in the upper level...you embarrass yourself. So it is fair to ask where the seats are with prejudice.”
        – Dan Le Batard (05:13)
      • Tony and Greg caution that some might be offended by the question: “If I offer tickets...and they ask me where they are, I’m like never again. Not yours.”

    – Juju (07:59)
  • Dan quips on how odd it feels, and the group pivots to wrapping up the segment.

6. Poll Results and Absurdities

• [08:45] – [11:24]
  • Juju runs through the day’s tongue-in-cheek audience polls, covering everything from conversion rates (“Do you know how much a shekel is worth?”) to sports injuries and philosophical musings on backflips and the trustworthiness of concierges.

    • “Is there an injury in sports worse than a ruptured testicle? 92% of the audience says no.”

[Jonathan Zaslow]

How about that?

[Juju]

Good.

[Dan Le Batard]

I. I can't wait. I love that movie. Let's bring juju aboard here. Juju, you're gonna be watching he man tonight on Prime. Now.

[Commercial Announcer]

Streaming.

[Juju]

Yes, sir. Yeah. You know what else is available for streaming? Disclosure Day.

[Dan Le Batard]

Is it really?

[Juju]

Yes, sir.

[Dan Le Batard]

Okay. Greg, you know about that Disclosure Day at Spielberg.

[Greg Cote]

I do not.

[Tony]

All right.

[Dan Le Batard]

Disclosure. That's a juju. Did you see Disclosure Day yet?

[Juju]

No, I haven't seen it. I was saving these because I was. I was influenced by you. They say you're not a movie guy, but I damn them. You are a movie guy to me, so I trust you.

[Dan Le Batard]

I'm a great movie movie guy. Disclosure Day is. It's. It's good. I. I don't know that I say it's great.

[Juju]

That's the one with Michael Douglas. Yeah, and him and Demi Moore.

[Greg Cote]

Baby.

[Dan Le Batard]

Baby he man, though, is a great movie. You will love that.

[Juju]

Yes, sir. Yes. Ultimately trust you. I trust you, ultimately. That's why I have two cases. Today. I bring forth two cases for the honorable judge Zaz. Let's do it.

[Tony]

All rise. The honorable Jonathan Zaslow now presiding with prejudice.

[Juju]

Yes, sir. Firstly, we got a video out of the Major league Baseball association where we have a patriot. My boy is mad. I want to know, is this patriotism or is this bullying? Because if this brother doesn't want to stand up for the anthem, I mean, does he have the right to. This is America, Jack. Roll it, video team. Stand up.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Telling someone to stand up, aggressively telling him to stand up, smacks him in the back of the head, then he stands up meekishly.

[Juju]

Judzaz, I need your ruling. Is this Patriot or is this bullying?

[Dan Le Batard]

Both. I think it's both for sure. You know, the guy's standing up.

[Greg Cote]

You're a judge. Pick a side.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah, I think it's. I think it's both for sure. Certainly, I. Unfortunately, I cannot side with the guy who smacked the other guy, because whether you're offended or not, like that guy, maybe he served, you know, so he. He's offended that this person is not standing. And even if that's the case, you can't then just smack them as a result to stand up. Like, that's. That's not. That's not appropriate behavior. But sidebar here down the middle. Zaz sounds like sidebar the dude that gets smacked. Can you stand up for yourself a little bit?

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Seriously?

[Tony]

Stood up.

[Dan Le Batard]

He stood up.

[Tony]

Didn't just look forward.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Didn't even look back at that.

[Dan Le Batard]

I mean, juju, Juju. Can you stand up for yourself in that spot? Come on.

[Greg Cote]

Does the bully Patriot. Does the bully patriot realize he could be arrested for assault? You can't physically take touch somebody like that.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Although I do end up thinking the guy that smacks him comes off the worst in this video somehow. But yet if that guy would have stood up and punched the. Then all of a sudden, we are now again mad at the guy for you didn't stand, and now you're going to get aggressive with the guy. So it's.

[Greg Cote]

I don't know. I'm.

[Dan Le Batard]

I'm finding everybody guilty with prejudice.

[Juju]

That's why I love you. As next case is more personal now. It's concert season going around, and I got my old lady, you know what I mean? She want to go to a couple concerts here and there. Someone offers us concert tickets. You know me, I like to have My feet on the wood. I like to be courtside. I like the certain type of je ne sais quoi if you don't know what I mean. Is it fair or foul of me to ask them where are the seats before accepting the seats?

[Dan Le Batard]

Great question. Great question. It is completely fair for you to ask, all right? You have a reputation to uphold. You can't be sitting up in the upper level, all right? Because then you embarrass yourself. You embarrass alley oop. You embarrass good follo. You embarrass the Dan lebatarcher. You embarrass yourself. All right, so it is fair to ask where the seats are with prejudice.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

It's a tough spot though, because I think the question is fair. But if you get the. If, if you find out their nosebleeds, then what's the response? Is it the right kindly thank you so much for the gesture but I'm going to pass.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Or do you just take the tickets, make them think you go and then buy better seats.

[Tony]

You push it out into the. Into the future. Careful with hit you up. I'll hit you up. Careful with who you ask at. If I offer tickets to somebody and they ask me where they are, I'm like never again. Not yours.

[Greg Cote]

I agree. I would be annoyed. I'd be annoyed.

[Juju]

Yeah, the judge ass has rude though, but with prejudice. Moving on, moving on to the wnba. Man, we got great, great news. Breaking news out of the W Queen fee Nafisa K is returning today at 3pm for Camp Day, the most glorious time in WNBA. O oh my God. Pairing her up with Olivia Miles right now who many are saying it's a three horse race in the MVP for the wnba. That's Asia Wilson, that's Paige Beckers and that's Olivia Miles. Now you giving her the MVP candidate for the last couple of seasons. It is up in Minnesota right now.

[Dan Le Batard]

Salute Juju. When do we start a dialogue that Dallas, the Dallas Wings really blew it by not drafting Olivia Miles?

[Juju]

I mean the dialogue can be started, bro. It's already been started. And I was one of the people who got out in front of that and said I was wrong because I thought Lauren Betts should have been chosen earlier. Boy, was I wrong. I think Dallas is making it work though with AZ because Paige is just such a star and you can rely on her the whole fourth quarter. And Enrique, which she stepped up in. Paige's absent the other day so I think AZ fits over there. But Olivia Miles is proven to be the best player in the recent draft history.

[Dan Le Batard]

Juju, what is this you got for us on Justin Fields? What's going on there, brothers?

[Juju]

I was on Twitter yesterday, bruh, and I was stopped in my tracks once I seen this picture because I forgot, you dig? I be forgetting these transactions be happening early after the season. This picture almost sent me in the shot yesterday.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Chiefs.

[Juju]

I was like, right? My boy Justin Fields is a chief. I forgot all about that. I forgot Patrick Mahomes got something with his knee going on out of bounds on me. But that is the jarring picture of the day.

[Dan Le Batard]

That is a little bit weird. Juju, before we. Before we get to the call, before we get to the polls here.

[Tony]

You got it.

[Dan Le Batard]

Thank you. Basically the same thing, Tony. I'm looking for a full review tomorrow. I'm very excited.

[Commercial Announcer]

You got it.

[Dan Le Batard]

I'm very excited that you're going to watch he man tonight. Now, if you. If you're searching for he man in prime, it's called Masters of the Universe. Actually, I called he man, so just make sure you search Masters of the Universe.

[Commercial Announcer]

Good.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

No, Yeah.

[Dan Le Batard]

I don't want to say. Oh, zazzle. I thought you said it was coming out, and you're a big liar. I'm not a liar. It's called Masters of the Universe.

[Juju]

Okay.

[DraftKings Announcer]

All right.

[Dan Le Batard]

Very good, Juju. Let's get some polls.

[Juju]

Yes, sir. Do you know how much a shekel is worth? 92% of the audience says, no, they do not.

[Tony]

Zaz, this is bad. Get up. Just came back from break, and it said Miami mishap in big, bold letters.

[Dan Le Batard]

I know. I don't like it.

[Tony]

This thing is being framed as Miami really messing this up.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

But Dan cleared it up.

[Juju]

But they didn't. It reminds me of that guy on secession. Remember his son made that thing and he was at the desk like, oh, sorry, guys. You think I want to Talk to Goldhammer? 58 of the audience says, no, they don't. Gold hammer, Is there an injury in sports worse than a ruptured testicle? 92 of the audience says, no, there is not worse injury, ruptured testicle or fractured testicle. 88 of the audience says, ruptured testicle. Yeah, man. Because, yeah, if it's fractured with his rupture, that's 6, 7. Are some people awake during brain surgery? Tony.

[Greg Cote]

What?

[Juju]

73 of the audience says, yes, they are.

[Greg Cote]

23.

[Tony]

Need to Google something.

[Juju]

Did you land the backflip? If you land on your ass, 91% of the audience says, no, you did not come. I just remind people right now that DraftKings Powerball tickets get five right now, wherever you are, all 50 states. Do you really trust the concierge? 59 of the audience says, no, they don't.

[Greg Cote]

Wow.

[Juju]

Is the concierge compromised? 84% of the audience says, yes, he is. Or she. Or they. Is Chicken Parmalee the highest praise? 57 of the audience says, yes, it is. Is Chip Kelly a silly little goose? Great polls today. I'll do my boy like that. 91 of the audience says, yes, he is. Has Mike ever been more ready to. 69 of the audience says, no, he has not.

[Tony]

That's gratuitous. It was.

[Juju]

And last poll. Can that brother piss?

[Greg Cote]

Yeah.

[Juju]

71 of the audience says yes. And those are your pose.

[Dan Le Batard]

Good job. Thanks, Juju.

[Juju]
