1. Corporate Cleansing Segment

The episode opens with a humorous take on the concept of "corporate cleansing," a recurring theme where the hosts discuss internal changes and cultural shifts within their production environment.

Key Discussions:

• Understanding "Fed Up": Chris Cody delves into the origins of the phrase "fed up," questioning its true meaning and relevance. He humorously speculates whether it's related to overeating or even the slaughtering of chickens, leading to a lighthearted debate among the hosts.

  Chris Cody [01:16]: "I don't even understand actually the phrase fed up. Is it just that you've had so much food that it is now pouring out of your mouth and you're vomiting because you can't keep it down anymore?"

• Introduction of John Amici: To address internal frustrations, Chris introduces the fictional "corporate cleanser," John Amici, as a figure brought in to restore balance and manage budget cuts, particularly concerning food expenses for the show.

  Chris Cody [04:05]: "I have brought in my big friend, corporate cleanser John Amici, who is very expensive, to try and get a hold of, whatever it is the consequences are of the decisions that David Sampson is getting very close to."

• Humorous Banter on Costumes: The conversation takes a comedic turn as the hosts joke about wearing costumes to improve the show, highlighting the absurdity of certain corporate mandates.

  Dan LeBatard [07:55]: "You got to look like me."

• Comparisons with Tiger Woods and Bryson DeChambeau: The conversation draws parallels between Rory's emotional win and iconic moments from Tiger Woods. They also discuss Bryson DeChambeau's inconsistent performance and its impact on the tournament's dynamics.

  Chris Cody [33:46]: "When you see someone who's a decorated champion, you have to understand... it meant so much because of how it had to go down for him to really conquer those demons."

• Justin Rose's Role: Justin Rose's exceptional performance is acknowledged as a crucial element that added pressure and excitement to the final moments of the tournament.

  Jessica [40:51]: "Justin Rose had the round of his life on Sunday. It took it to the playoff and made it even more interesting."

• Notable Quotes:

  Chris Cody [43:31]: "Rory McIlroy ends up showing us something that we are desperate to see from our athletes... how he cares as much as we do."

  Stugotz [43:31]: "The emotional release of that moment was an all-time payoff."

3. NBA Game: Clippers vs Warriors

Transitioning from golf to basketball, the hosts briefly discuss the recent NBA game between the Clippers and Warriors, highlighting the excitement and unpredictability of late-season games.

Key Discussions:

• Game Analysis: Chris Cody remarks on the intensity of the game and its implications for both teams as the season progresses.

  Chris Cody [18:08]: "You know, I love that. That's great. That's it. That's perfect advertising for the game. The national game. That was a shitty sales job."

The conversation shifts to the significance of the Peabody Awards, debating their prestige compared to other entertainment accolades.

Key Discussions:

• Understanding Peabody Awards: The hosts explore the history and reputation of the Peabody Awards, debating whether they hold more prestige compared to popular awards like those for TV shows.

  Stugotz [23:02]: "It's considered the gold standard for excellence in media. It's like Media Sui awards."

• Comparisons with The Simpsons and South Park: A lively debate ensues about whether The Simpsons or South Park better exemplifies the enduring success and cultural impact required to be worthy of such awards.

  Chris Cody [25:39]: "One of the things, somebody else who is doing that, who I have actually admired the run of his show... It's one of the reasons that I wanted us to have freedom in 2024 with the microphones."

• Notable Quotes:

  Stugotz [23:36]: "I always think I'm right, Dan."

  Chris Cody [25:02]: "The Simpsons are the best of the cartoon shows, right? Like, South Park famously hates Family Guy in a way that is public and really delightful."

5. Hosts' Personal Updates and Banter

[Stugotz]

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo, what are you doing here?

[Chris Cody]

Cuervo? Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.

[Stugotz]

Well, I do know that to be true. But even during ad reads like Cuervo, I think he could lay out especially for one of our great partners.

[Chris Cody]

Sweet, delicious Cuervo.

[Stugotz]

Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion.

[Chris Cody]

Cuervo.

[Stugotz]

So enjoy the tequila that started it all. Cuervo.

[Dan LeBatard]

Cuervo.

[Stugotz]

The tequila that invented tequila. Proximo. Cuervo.com Please drink responsibly.

[Chris Cody]

Cuervo. Shadow Show. Shadow Show. Shadow Show.

[Dan LeBatard]

Shadow Show.

[Chris Cody]

Shadow Show. Shadow Show.

[Dan LeBatard]

Shadow Show. Shadow Show.

[Chris Cody]

Shadow Show.

[Dan LeBatard]

Shadowing it.

[Chris Cody]

Shadowing it. You guys know that I have been dabbling in mortality thoughts which come with some legacy thoughts. And as I look at ESPN right now, unsportsmanlike the morning show on ESPN radio, I wonder if our legacy right now is on the bottom part of the screen where they are graphically showing what the people are talking about. And the segment is called I'm over it with an exclamation point. And then it just says producer Pat Costello shares what he's fed up with today.

[Dan LeBatard]

I want to tune in.

[Chris Cody]

Is that our legacy producers fed up with things. Producers getting microphones to say that they are fed up. I don't even understand actually the phrase fed up. Is it just that you've had so much food that it is now pouring out of your mouth and you're vomiting because you can't keep it down anymore? Is that why and how people get fed up? Or is it something with the slaughtering of chickens? Like what? How do people slaughtering with chickens? I don't. I don't. Look, Roy, I don't understand what's happening in the world. I was told the other day that at these Minecraft movies, teenagers are coming in with live chickens. And I'm like, what the hell?

[Greg Cody]

That's not all they're Doing Dan, how.

[Chris Cody]

Are people allowed in? Put it on the poll at Lebatard show. Should you be allowed into the movie theater with a live chicken?

[Jessica]

Also, they carry salmonella, and then if you touch your mouth or your face, you're gonna get sick. It's a bad idea. Don't carry chickens into a movie life.

[Chris Cody]

Principle words if I've ever heard them.

[Greg Cody]

Emotional support.

[Stugotz]

Chicken.

[Jessica]

It's my advice. Don't bring a live chicken to a movie theater.

[Chris Cody]

I see that you guys are desperately looking up. Fed up. The origins of fed up.

[Greg Cody]

I found it. But there was a couple of words that I had to make sure that I was locked in on to come to air and actually say them. So fed up originates from falconry, man, where the bird of prey has been overly fed, no longer is willing to fly and hunt.

[Dan LeBatard]

I'm seeing that it's British slang from around 1900, evolving from the phrase like, fed up to the back teeth. So that's not helpful. So I'll keep reading.

[Chris Cody]

Well, I'm looking straight at you, and I'm saying, like, you are the one I'm looking at. And I'm like, producers who are overly fed and don't want to work anymore. Huh?

[Dan LeBatard]

I'm looking right in the mirror for sure. Not fed to my back teeth, so there's still room.

[Chris Cody]

I've seen you hit that bacon and those sausages over there. I've seen you fed to the back teeth.

[Dan LeBatard]

We keep bacon industry going around here. No one eats bacon like this. This place.

[Chris Cody]

I. I need to talk to you guys about some things on and off camera about bacon. Well, they want to cut the food budget.

[Stugotz]

What?

[Chris Cody]

Yeah. And I'm like, well, who does?

[Greg Cody]

That's a. That's an important distinction.

[Jessica]

David Sampson.

[Chris Cody]

Poke.

[Greg Cody]

No, Takinokomi. Of course, if everybody has 18,000 jelly beans in a bag. Oh, no, it's great. Bring your own jelly beans. No, I don't want that, Dave. Sorry.

[Chris Cody]

In general, I got to get. I got to get a grip on Samson because he's just careening all over the place. And I'm happy to say that I have gotten a grip on Sampson because I have brought in my big friend, corporate cleanser John Amici, who is very expensive, to try and get a hold of, whatever it is the consequences are of the decisions that David Sampson is getting very close to so that I can find some happy medium between. Nobody around here will wear costumes when I tell them to. And don't take away their food.

[Dan LeBatard]

Getting that friend discount. What's the deal?

[Jessica]

Yeah, you Hired a corporate therapist cuz we didn't want to wear costumes. Got it.

[Chris Cody]

That's exactly right.

[Jessica]

And you hired David because we eat a lot of bacon.

[Chris Cody]

That's exactly right.

[Greg Cody]

This is the Dan Levator show with the ST podcast.

[Chris Cody]

The other thing about bringing in corporate cleanser John Amici in here in an emergency to get Dave. David Sampson away from your bacon is that John Amici getting in and out of this country now is something that feels more dangerous to him than going to Dubai. And so he is really coming in as a hero's gesture here for his friend in order to make sure that the food gets protected because David Sampson is trying to take away the food.

[Greg Cody]

I got an idea. How about this? How about instead of what you're going to pay John, you pay it to me, I'll go around, I'll do it. I'll make sure everything goes. No, no, not cheaper. Same rate. I'm doing the same thing, baby.

[Chris Cody]

Will you actually wear one of the costumes? Well, no, but see, this is the reason John Amici is here. Because I am the founder of this company, allegedly powerful, and I can't get any of you to for our customers pay grit of death punishments that make the show better. And symbolically, that is something I need help with.

[Dan LeBatard]

And I'm just picturing him. What am I here for? For costumes. What's happening with this?

[Chris Cody]

That's.

[Stugotz]

That's pretty good, man.

[Chris Cody]

That's pretty good.

[Jessica]

No, it was not a good.

[Chris Cody]

It was good.

[Greg Cody]

Wow.

[Jessica]

Austin Powers.

[Dan LeBatard]

Bloody hell.

[Chris Cody]

Do you.

[Dan LeBatard]

Who throws a shoe?

[Jessica]

He's very subdued. Austin Powers.

[Chris Cody]

Yes. Well, I will say in Chris Cody's defense, because he is willing to make himself vulnerable in some of the places that cause critique impersonations, if you're not confident in them, will immediately result in all of us seizing on what Jess did while not doing a better British impersonation.

[Jessica]

Oh, please. I do plenty of impersonations. Also, Jeremy wore a ton of costumes last year. He didn't get a raise. So what's the incentive for wearing costumes around here, Dano?

[Chris Cody]

To make the show better, Jessica. Oh.

[Jessica]

All right, Tony. Detective Todd.

[Greg Cody]

First off, if we're looking, if we're pointing fingers, I wore my costumes.

[Chris Cody]

When I lost.

[Greg Cody]

I did my thing. I was Jerry Seinfeld. It was a matrix. I did a thousand different costumes.

[Chris Cody]

You did not do a thousand costumes. My guess is that you have some ode. And again, my frustration. I know everyone at this company is laughing about this at me. But again, the reason we do what I have always believed is a Bad Bucket of Death segment is so that we get the payoff of the punishments when you deny the audience the punishments of the payoff. We're now doing a bad segment that makes the show worse, and we're not paying our penalties in the way that the show is made worse. And so, symbolically, John Amishi, John Amici has rushed through danger in order to come here. Save your bacon. Literally, save your bacon. And see if we can get anyone in here to just, you know, take care of the customer, because the customer kind of keeps us in business.

[Dan LeBatard]

You got to look like me.

[Chris Cody]

I'm not going to criticize that impersonation.

[Greg Cody]

You know who it was though, right?

[Dan LeBatard]

What's up?

[Stugotz]

Yeah, I'm going to ask who that is.

[Greg Cody]

No, no, you don't have to.

[Dan LeBatard]

What's up with all these costumes? What's up with all these costumes?

[Chris Cody]

The other thing that I will do in defense of Jessica, because we all do probably was a terrible impersonation, but I also can't do one that's better. And the risk around here in leaving yourself vulnerable on song or impersonations is that everyone will pounce on you. And so it. It deters anyone from actually wanting to take the risk of doing the impersonation. So corporate cleanser is in town to see if he can make everything around here better. A couple of people who are not here right now, I'm surprised by one of them because I thought for sure that Stugats would be here today to talk about Rory McElroy, to call him either Rory McLeroy or make him black by calling him Rory Mc Leroy. But he is not here today and he will be here tomorrow. I don't know if he's home celebrating that golf had a moment yesterday. It's hard for golf to come by moments. Hell, Tony wandered over today, slapping his forehead, saying, I get it now. I get the Masters. I get golf. I get Masters week. Chris, have you been trying to talk to Tony about Masters week? Have you been trying to convince him? Because yesterday sold it.

[Dan LeBatard]

I'm skeptical of Tony because he came in. Now I get it. I get it with the Masters. I'm interested to hear his take because it feels like there's going to be a pinch of sarcasm in it.

[Greg Cody]

No, there's no picture sarcasm. I was watching, obviously. We had an incredible game. Last game of the day in the NBA.

[Dan LeBatard]

Last.

[Greg Cody]

Yesterday we had Clippers versus Dubs, which was incredible. We'll get to that later. But as that game finished, I was like, you know what? Let me go Check out what's going on over at the Masters.

[Chris Cody]

See what put on.

[Greg Cody]

I put on cbs. We've got Rory coming down. We got Justin Rose, you know, practicing, and they're going to him. The thing is, here's the. Here's the ticket, Dan. Here's what I realized. Oh, I get it. I had the baby on top of me. She's sleeping, she's taking a nap. I kind of wake up from a little bit of a nap.

[Chris Cody]

Sunday Masters is great for that. By the way, the early holes. Sunday Masters. Put it on the poll at LeBatard show. Early holes. Sunday Masters good for a nap.

[Greg Cody]

All of a sudden my daughter's asleep. I kind of wake up from a little bit of a slumber after the post overtime game. And I'm like, oh, I get it. This is nice, relaxing. Look at Justin Rose practicing. He's hoping he's got one more shot. Oh, no. Rory's got one putt to sink if he makes it. He's got the green jacket. He's got the career grand slam. It's over. He missed it. Oh, my God. We got a one hole playoff. I was locked in. Dan. I get it now. Next Masters I'm going to be in.

[Dan LeBatard]

I can't believe the roller coaster that was that round.

[Chris Cody]

Rory tried so hard to. Rory, he tried like he wins it. And there's some randomness involved with this. He gets to win. Congratulations. It's the great story. In fact, I would tell you now how many open stories are left in golf that could feel like that one, because it's pretty cool when someone cares like that. When you see someone who's a decorated champion, you have to understand, for all the criticism of Rory McIlroy not winning over the last decade, he has made a wildly lucrative, great career. Career. He is exceptional at golf. He's one of the most popular golfers that there are. But he had a hole on his resume that he was carrying around in a way that hurt him, that didn't feel complete. And so I want to talk about that with you guys. And I also want to talk about that Clippers warriors game, because that was a lot of fun. And no one, no one wants to play the Clippers. That team is dangerous. And that team has the legitimate chance if they stay healthy. I said this last year of the Clippers, they're better. This year, if that team stays healthy, they have the chance to be the single most surprising champion in NBA history after trading Paul George. But before we get to that, Greg Cody is also not here today. Because he is finally having that procedure done for whatever that thing is over his belly button, which I want to have brought in here. Please, Chris, tell me that you have told me, told your father that he has to bring it with him after surgery to put in a glass case to see if we could talk. Top what I believe to be the greatest achievement in this show's history, which is getting thousands of people to walk in a line, like a pilgrimage toward a glass case that had Greg Cody's toenail in it.

[Jessica]

I. There's a little bit of confusion here, and we don't think he's getting something removed. We think he's getting a body part pushed back in.

[Dan LeBatard]

And then they're putting it, like, essentially like a netting to, like, a wiring that, like, will keep it pushed back, essentially.

[Chris Cody]

I would like for you to please make sure that he gets some sort of remnant heirloom something.

[Jessica]

Dan says cut something out of Greg.

[Chris Cody]

We need a bit physical flesh, not just a bit. I need to conquer the single greatest achievement in this show's history by doing something even more disgusting and a waste of the platform and power than having a pilgrimage of thousands of people to see a toenail, to see this thing that grew above Greg Cody's stomach. Can we please go to what I believe was the greatest moment that we had during 24 hours of freedom, when we did a bunch of programming with every talented person in our universe for 24 hours. And I don't think there was any programming better than what we showed at 4am after Adam McKay and Neil Brenn has spent a couple of hours reviewing Neil Brennan's movie. We got to see Greg Cody with a doctor in Indiana, Chris, a doctor who was up at 4 or 3 in the morning to do this examination from afar. Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

But first I want to describe it to you so you're not too shocked. My navel is a small, round circle, like the kid in Home Alone. And then above my navel is what looks like a broad, wide nose. I have a nose above my navel now. Can I show it to you and you tell me what's wrong with me?

[Chris Cody]

Let me ask you a couple of questions first. How long have you had this? Do you.

[Stugotz]

Can you remember?

[Dan LeBatard]

I. My whole life. Like, I cannot remember not having it.

[Chris Cody]

Okay. And does it come and go or is it always there?

[Dan LeBatard]

It's always there. And as Mike Ryan can tell you, it's uncomfortably squishy. Like, I feel like if I pricked it, pus or something would come out.

[Stugotz]

I honestly expected it to Be a little bit more gelatinous, but it's liquidy closer to water than hair gel, if that makes sense.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, I would agree with that.

[Chris Cody]

Water more than hair gel. Okay. Yeah. If you want to show it to me, that's fine.

[Dan LeBatard]

Okay. Move your. Move your all access pass.

[Chris Cody]

See? White with writing on it. Yeah, I've never seen that.

[Dan LeBatard]

Let's hold on. Let the camera zoom in on it. Like, stay still, dad. There you go. All right. There it is, doctor.

[Stugotz]

Okay.

[Chris Cody]

Okay. It looks like one of those Easter islands. Does it go in?

[Dan LeBatard]

It does. Oh, that looks. Oh, that looks. That hurts me when you do that. Stop here. It's squishing. He's speechless.

[Chris Cody]

Wow.

[Stugotz]

He's. He's assessing.

[Dan LeBatard]

What's your. Yeah, what's your assessment? So.

[Chris Cody]

What I think is going on.

[Stugotz]

Do you want to see it one more time? Do you want to see it one more time?

[Chris Cody]

Speech. Never seen anything.

[Dan LeBatard]

Don't move. Let him finish his answer until you sit down.

[Stugotz]

Proceed, Dr. Robert.

[Chris Cody]

So what I think you have going on is what's called a periumbilical hernia. So you can sit down if you want. That. That doctor. The look on his face seemed to me like he was questioning why it is he had gotten into medicine and how much he knew about medicine because of what he was experiencing there.

[Chris Cody]

Don LeBatard. You know how these late season games are. We don't know. It's a big game for the Knicks. We have absolutely no idea how Boston will play it. I don't know who they'll play, who they won't play. Stugats. Okay, all right. That's fine. That's an excellent promotion. You know, I love that. That's great. That's it. That's perfect advertising for the game. The national game. That was a shitty sales job.

[Greg Cody]

This is the our show with the Stugats.

[Chris Cody]

Mike Ryan has now returned. How was your corporate cleansing? Did it feel good?

[Stugotz]

It's fine, Dan. I don't. I don't think I'm fully cleansed.

[Chris Cody]

Okay, let's keep working on that. We'll see whether Amici can cleanse everybody or not.

[Stugotz]

Yeah. Still grinding, still chopping.

[Chris Cody]

I love that Greg Cody said he does not remember not having it. He does remember, however, seeing a Wilt Chamberlain game he never saw because nobody did.

[Greg Cody]

Sylvania tv, black and white.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, he mentioned that.

[Jessica]

Pablo is really mad at all of us.

[Stugotz]

Did I miss the Rory conversation?

[Chris Cody]

We talked about it for a moment. We'll get to it in a second. You were corporate cleansing.

[Stugotz]

Was the Rory conversation just three minutes long?

[Greg Cody]

No, no.

[Chris Cody]

We're going to get to us. We're going to get.

[Jessica]

We're still setting the table. We're going to sit down and eat.

[Greg Cody]

I'm in on the Masters, by the way.

[Stugotz]

Yeah. Did you hear that? How could you not be?

[Greg Cody]

Thank you.

[Jessica]

But the Masters is the kind. Well, I mean, golf in general is kind of thing where when it's boring, it's really boring. It's very. You just kind of nap through it and you don't miss anything. But when it's good, like Sunday, it is so good. And this was like one of this. And the Tigers 2019 Masters. Probably the two best Masters Sundays of my lifetime. And I. I don't know. I didn't think the Tiger one could be beat. I don't think it was beat, but I think this comes pretty dang close.

[Chris Cody]

And I will get to that. Even though Mike needs, obviously, a little more corporate cleansing to arrive late and say, did you guys already talk about something? We've talked about, so we'll get him some more corporate cleansing. But you were saying, Jessica, about Pablo being really mad?

[Jessica]

Well, because he did an entire episode about Wilt Chamberlain's 100 point game that we all admitted we didn't listen to, especially Greg Cody, because he claimed that he watched it on his TV in Florida when it was famously not televised. So, yeah, I think we sort of failed our plan.

[Chris Cody]

I disagree. I disagree. I think that Pablo can make his wonderful things and run around with his rhythmic gymnastics ribbon and then go over there and, you know, spend time with Joe Scarborough as starch. Joe Scarborough tries to make him the model minority on msnbc. That makes it okay for him to go to the White House. And Pablo needs to just do his job and not complain about what we're doing around here.

[Greg Cody]

Well, damn, I agree with that.

[Chris Cody]

We're fine here funding his projects and his fun. And he can be mad that occasionally we're not listening to them because Greg Cody surprises us by remembering something he shouldn't and couldn't remember. And he can do his job. And we will do our job.

[Jessica]

Sounds like corporate cleansing. Maybe we should move everything up a few hours.

[Chris Cody]

I've got to do corporate cleansing, too. I'm not. I'm not immune from corporate cleansing. John Amici is telling me a bunch of things I don't want to hear either.

[Stugotz]

I wasn't aware that we were making that content, but now I'm locked in.

[Chris Cody]

Thank you. Well, if you'd gotten here on time, you would have known.

[Stugotz]

You told me I could take as long as I need.

[Chris Cody]

Another reason we need some corporate cleansing around here because we shouldn't have to Stop in the middle of what it is that we're doing to answer your questions on things we've already done.

[Greg Cody]

You could do the second part with me because I stepped in and said I can do what Amici is doing. Pay me the same amount of money, we'll do it. So me and you go have a beer later.

[Stugotz]

I mean, we've done that corporate Michael bit before. We can run it back.

[Jessica]

No, this is Detective Tony, though.

[Greg Cody]

No, this is Therapist Tony. Different pilot.

[Jessica]

No, therapist is Billy.

[Chris Cody]

So Pablo Torre is on msnbc. Rising star in sports media. I don't know if you guys saw like, this is a big deal. Pablo Torre has been nominated a podcast nominated for Peabody. All he does is, oh, that's another thing that David Sampson wants to take out of the budget. The money we're spending on getting nominated for awards, that's. That's another thing. Sampson doesn't think that we need that one. Well, Pablo's winning a lot of war. He is winning a lot of awards. Can you please tell me something, Jessica? I'm unfamiliar with this. I'm actually not. Our show does not win awards and I have not won awards for anything in a long time. The Peabody Award. Why is it so important? Like what is the history of the Peabody that would make it better than all of the other awards? If you're going to be flattered by.

[Jessica]

Award giving, I think it's just like a very long standing and considered a prestigious award. I don't exactly know the way to be nominated for it, but I do know that with a lot of awards, you have to submit an application on behalf of your own show and there usually is some sort of like administrative fee for that. I don't know about the Peabody specifically though.

[Stugotz]

It's considered the gold standard for excellence in media. It's like Media Sui awards.

[Chris Cody]

Would you be kind enough for me to get a more formal description of why it is other people admire the Peabody then it's like the Suey Awards.

[Stugotz]

Also, the name just gives off highfalutin.

[Chris Cody]

It really does.

[Stugotz]

So I think that's really working for it. You know, it's not corporate sponsored. It's not the Peabody presented by the snack wrap at kfc.

[Jessica]

Like it's an old award like the Sueys.

[Chris Cody]

Who's Peabody?

[Jessica]

George, I believe.

[Stugotz]

I think he's related to Sherman.

[Chris Cody]

What is the story of Peabody and why does Peabody get the highfalutin prestige here?

[Stugotz]

Well, because of the Rocky and Bullwinkle thing. Peabody was very smart. So it's one of those names that you just. I know for my generation I associate it with very intelligent things because of a cartoon. And I'm being dead honest with you.

[Chris Cody]

Do you think you're right?

[Stugotz]

I think a lot of people apply the Rocky and Bullwinkle thing to it whether they know it or not.

[Chris Cody]

But do you think you're right if you had to bet and be right?

[Stugotz]

I always think I'm right, Dan.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, well, don't I know that. Yeah, that actually came up of the corporate cleansing.

[Stugotz]

That actually came up a lot.

[Chris Cody]

Find for me more information, if you would, on the Peabody award in general. So that I may be armed with more information than I can.

[Stugotz]

Tony's got an AI overview he could read directly from 1938.

[Greg Cody]

Dan. The NAB National Associations of broadcasters use the radio industry and kind of put together this Peabody award by philanthropist George Peabody. So it's been a while.

[Jessica]

That's what I said already. It's a long standing award given to journalists from George Peabody, who is a rich guy who was. The award was named after George Peabody.

[Stugotz]

Cool. Gotta do some more research.

[Jessica]

You said that like four minutes ago.

[Stugotz]

But I gotta do some more research on George.

[Greg Cody]

The Simpsons of one of Peabody.

[Chris Cody]

So the Simpsons are the best of the cartoon shows, right? Like, south park famously hates Family Guy in a way that is public and really delightful. Because south park is looking at Family Guy and being like, stand for something. How about you stop just making jokes all the time and just take a stand. Seth MacFarlane quit doing jazz hands and they don't mind telling you. So like Seth MacFarlane has had a wildly successful career and the south park guys are like, nah, don't like you. You're meaningless. You don't do important things. But Simpsons is the gold standard. Correct? Simpson. Even though, like you're either put it on the poll. Juju. This is a good question, actually. Just put Simpsons or South park choose. You got to choose between them because they're. They're different people. Those are. You have to choose a side here. You can't. You can't like both of them equally.

[Stugotz]

I do like them both. I don't like them equally. I like south park more. But south park also being a cable show could get away with more than Simpsons, which starting in the early 90s was on network television. Appealing to certain family aspects that south park didn't have to. I'm really excited that south park is coming back given everything that's going on in the teaser.

[Chris Cody]

27 years, 28 years.

[Stugotz]

The teaser that they dropped is really south park getting back to pop culture commentary, satire. So I'm really excited about that. I'm more of a South park guy. I never really was a Family Guy guy, even though it was pretty funny. There was that south park episode where they basically accused their writers of being a bunch of manatees that would just randomly pick different balls floating up in a tank to do their sketch. And I thought they did that very smartly. But I'm a South park guy.

[Chris Cody]

Le Batard Show. Choose Simpsons or South park? Is it indeed, 27, 28 years. Because both of those shows, I don't think that people understand. We have gotten crawling on our knees to 20 years. How hard it is to keep that ball up in the air over all of the things that can happen over 30 years to continually and consistently make content that stands out. One of the things, somebody else who is doing that, who I have actually admired the run of his show, as I've lost at admiration for some of the things that he has done. Most recently, Bill Maher traded everything to sit at a table with Trump just because he wants the power of being next to Bob, Kid Bob and Trump. And so Bill Maher now tries to normalize Donald Trump because Donald Trump invited him to his house to have dinner. And Keith Olbermann, among others, is saying, quote, I've known bill since 1978. He was a shameless opportunist with no real principles then. And he remains so this is so he can keep his HBO show. This is something that's happening, and it's one of the reasons that I wanted us to have freedom in 2024 with the microphones, like when my friend Gian Amici comes to this country and is legitimately scared, more than coming to Dubai because he's gay and black and because this country seems more hostile than it has been in a long time when that person is scared. Some of the things happening while you laugh at dinner with Donald Trump and while Pablo's Scarborough from Morning Joe goes to the White House and normalizes some of the shit by saying, well, he's human. He laughs. He laughs. But he's a pathological liar because now he's putting out on his health certificate that he's 6 3, 224 pounds. I'm going to say that again. Donald Trump. Trump is telling us that he's six'three 224 pounds. Can you guys just roll some athletes that are six'three 224 pounds or roughly thereabouts? And I know muscle weighs more than fat, but it doesn't Weigh this much more than fat.

[Stugotz]

Are you suggesting that Donald Trump might be lying?

[Chris Cody]

Pathological liar. We put up there 63225. That's wrong. It's 224. Like he went out of his way. They're not gonna believe 225. Let me make it a little more detailed. 225 sounds too clean. They're not gon believe that. Let me give you that little extra detail that pathological liars need to have. 6, 3, 224 pounds. Why do you have to lie about that now? I understand a lot of people lie about their height and weight to make it official though. Like why? How can. It has to be because it's pathological, right? It has to be because, like stugats, there's more fun in lying than there is in telling the truth.

[Stugotz]

Well, I mean, if he's gonna lie about other things, it stands to reason he would not be fully forthcoming with the thing that most everyone lies about their heightened way.

[Chris Cody]

I know, but putting it on, just making it official when it's just asinine, where it's a lie that can be checked by your eye. Like most of the lies don't get checked by the eye.

[Stugotz]

I gotta tell you, they have this keep your eye on the ball though. This is just like the Gulf of America thing. That's why that placard still in that office. To just rile you up and get your focus over there. You want to get your focus on the weight and height and weight you won't worry about how. Are we tariffing laptops or are we not? Are we tariffing the battery inside? Is there a message? Are we all on message or are we just pausing, unpausing again. So I really. It's not the first time he's lied about his height and weight. It's just the most recent.

[Chris Cody]

No, but he's losing weight now. He was too. 240 before when he was lying about. Now he's. Now he's 224. Just please roll that again. Please roll and roll. As many athletes as you can find over the course of the.

[Stugotz]

He is getting a lot of golf in though, so I mean even more than the last time. So I guess maybe he does look.

[Chris Cody]

A little bit better anyway.

[Dan LeBatard]

He looks good.

[Chris Cody]

Good.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, he doesn't. He looks terrible.

A lot of walks, but I'm on baseball.

[Stugotz]

[Greg Cody]

You know your role, you play.

[Stugotz]

I know my role.

[Greg Cody]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the stugats.

[Chris Cody]

Rory McElroy ends up showing us something that we are desperate to see from our athletes, which and golfers show us that you care as much as we do. Show us that it means something to you. After not winning a major tournament in 10 years and this one being the hole on your resume, it is really rare to see someone that happy putting on the green jacket at the country club because they are pretty staid about their emotions there. When Jessica mentions Tiger and the Masters, I think I could say to the entirety of the audience, one snapshot all time golf. Give it to me. And it's Tiger chasing a putt at the Masters to the hole and then showing you the emotion of that robot that, you know, that has been like groomed since birth to be a robot that doesn't have a lot of public emotion. If you give me one snapshot on golf, not this century ever, the one I'm going with with is Tiger following a putt to the hole, pointing at it, and then just coming through with the emotion of It. And then yesterday I felt something similar with the way that Rory put on that jacket. Caring about having that jacket more than anybody watching.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, the image of him falling to his knees, that's an all time golf photo. There are so many great photos of that. And each time I flip the through the photos I'm like, this is the one, this is the one. And they just keep getting better and better. And it was really cool for him to win that. And I must admit, I wasn't a big Rory guy. I wanted to see. I guess it played out perfectly because I didn't really know how badly I wanted to see him have that moment. I just knew that I wanted to see him overcome adversity. And for a while there on the front nine, it looked like he wasn't going to have to because he had been dominating so much. For him to falter the way that he did, which was so on brand and replicate so many of the great collapses that he's had in his career and still overcome with great shots, it meant so much because of how it had to go down for him to really conquer those demons in profound ways. And it was high drama. I mean, you got people hooting and hollering for golf at bars. It's crazy.

[Chris Cody]

Well, thank you for saying that because. Put it on the poll, please. Juju at LeBatard show. Did Rory try to. Rory, Because I would have. I would have liked somebody great to really be putting pressure on him to see how that would have gone. Like one of the greats. I would have liked for him to not be able to falter because somebody was coming after him like that. But when you mention sounds from bars regarding golf, this is something that I do all the time and have been doing it since my wife and I met because she does not care about sports and we live over a sports bar. So there are a variety of noises that come from the sports bar. And depending on both the schedule and the sound, she'll say, and what's that? And I'll be like, that's Premier League or whatever, because of what time of day it is. Yesterday for the first time. And I'm saying she has asked me this hundreds of times. And it's always football or that's a championship college basketball game or that's a playoff game in college football. Yesterday, for the first time, we're walking the dog and the bar explodes. And she's like, what's that? And I'm like, golf. And she's like, no, it isn't.

[Stugotz]

It's the first time you've ever responded with golf, right?

[Chris Cody]

Correct.

[Stugotz]

You've never been able to say it. That's goal.

[Chris Cody]

Never. She didn't even believe me. She did not believe me because what was then happening is the sound that you do not hear in any other sport except soccer, which is on a putt. You don't hear that during a football game.

[Stugotz]

It's rare when that sport delivers in that way. It was the first playoff since 2017 and it was shaping up to be such a dramatic Sunday. And Bryson was going to be that guy guy, a potential all time great chasing Rory and being the obstacle. And Bryson had his meltdown and you thought, okay, well Rory's just going to be consistent the entire time and that's how he's going to put all these criticisms to bed. But I kind of want to see him have to deal with it. I want to see him make a pressure filled putt. I want to see him miss a pressure filled putt and then come back and hit great shots and nail a pressure filled putt. And, and Rose had the day that he had. It was kind of weird because he was out on the range. You would have loved for the pairing and that additional pressure to be like literally right on top of him. But man, that was just majestic. That was a great, great tournament the entire time. That was a great final round, especially the back nine. I'm so happy that it played out the way that it did. And it is pretty rare. There are no upset golf fans. Even if you're a LIV golf guy, even if you, you hate Rory, you understand what that story meant. There is not a single person that even casually follows golf that isn't super overjoyed for Rory McIlroy. And I'm so happy Rory met that moment with the emotion that everybody watching attached to it because he was very clearly wearing it. It may not have been visible as he's walking down 16, 17, you can pick up on that. But the emotional release of that moment was, was an all time payoff.

[Dan LeBatard]

And then afterwards he just admits, oh, first hole nervous. What other sports do you get that where it's just he double bogeys the first hole and it's just clear that this all time great athlete is just nervous. And then he overcomes it, goes on a stretch, gets the lead and then on 13, double bogeys, hits it in the water. The role I can't remember in any golf round. Usually in golf, you, you're either hot for a whole round, like the back and forth of choking, getting hot Choking again. Getting hot was just. And I admit I went into this, I was rooting against Rory just because I've always kind of been indifferent on Rory. And I think that the storyline of him needing a Masters was really all golf has at the moment. So I was like almost nervous for golf, almost rooting for the storyline to continue. But you see the emotion and I, I flipped. I was like happy for him. Like Mike said, nobody's watching that. Even if you're rooting against Rory, you get that. How long he's been 11 chances to get the fourth major and every other golfer that has five, all the majors has done it in three chances or less. 11 tries. It took him just brutal.

[Jessica]

You were rooting against Rory.

[Dan LeBatard]

I was not like, not in a way. Not like anti. I don't dislike Rory. I just wanted to see who did.

[Jessica]

You want to win on Sunday?

[Dan LeBatard]

I was, I had money on Oberg.

[Greg Cody]

Oh, yeah, that's tough.

[Stugotz]

I had pretty much everybody but Rory. I was. I was betting for Rory to collapse. And.

[Jessica]

Well, that's different than. I guess that's. If you're betting. It's not different than rooting against him.

[Stugotz]

But this may come as a shock. I also like Bryson DeChambeau. Despite him doing a lot of things.

[Jessica]

That doesn't really come as a shock.

[Dan LeBatard]

What?

[Jessica]

I don't think that comes as a shock.

[Stugotz]

Really.

[Jessica]

No.

[Dan LeBatard]

Bryson has kind of done work to corporate cleanser. His. His image has flipped a little bit. Like, I know that he still has the lift stuff.

[Chris Cody]

Stuff.

[Dan LeBatard]

But Bryson, with his YouTube channel, I feel like, you know, the high fives, it was funny. Bryson, because he is riding the. Hey, I'll talk to fans. All because Rory famously doesn't even look at fans. So Bryson was very excited with the high fiving fans until he went in. Until he went six over the first four holes. And you could see him just being like, oh, I still got to do this high five thing, even though I'm. It was choking.

[Jessica]

It was interesting though that Rory ended up playing against Rose, who was ahead of him. Because when that happened, like, like it felt like it. You. Like you said, Chris, it would have been easier if Bryson was having this bad round. Roy started off sluggish, but then started playing better and he just sort of coast at home. But Justin Rose had like the round of his life on Sunday. It took it to the playoff and I thought that made it even more interesting. And so then Rory goes into the playoff against someone who's won a major but, you know, has lost in a playoff before. Who he's friends with, who he knows really well. And so it just made it a really interesting dynamic at the end that it was those two playing for the Masters win against one another instead of Bryson, who had sort of lost his it early in the first half of the. Of the day.

[Dan LeBatard]

I would have thought that if it was Bryson versus Rory, I think Rory's head is in a different place. I think the fact that it was Justin Rose, he's friends with Justin Rose, I actually think that helped Rory. I feel like if it was like, somebody like Bryson, then we might have seen Rory get in his head again.

[Stugotz]

It's the only way. It could have maybe been a little bit better.

[Chris Cody]

No, it could have been better if Scheffler was chasing him or if one of these. One of these giants was chasing him.

[Stugotz]

Scheffler had a good final round, but I. The only way that it could have been better for me is if the person that was applying the pressure was paired with him and they're going shot for shot. That was what the whole appeal was. That's what it was looking like. Oh, man. Bryson and Rory have been going shot for shot this entire tournament. Hopefully they deliver on Sunday. Bryson didn't hold up his end of the deal because that's an additional pressure. Now you're going to try to have to make this putt with Bryson DeChambeau over your shoulder. It's a different kind of pressure, and it's the only way that you could have framed it a little bit cooler.

[Chris Cody]

I believe there are other ways to have framed it cooler by just making it something that didn't allow him to Rory, because he was still roaring and not paying for it because he was compensating. But there could have been someone out there making him pay for that, like somebody who's better at golf than he is, even though he's exceptional at golf.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, he fell back to the tide. There were guys that had great rounds, Scheffler among them, but it was just. Just they had to make up too much ground there. So, like, I. I hear you. I don't disagree. I'd much rather Scotty Scheffler be set standing over his shoulder, but the distance between them heading into the final round was such that it was Bryson that was supposed to be the guy that held up his end of the deal, and he didn't.

[Jessica]

I also think that him having some pretty bad shots actually made for a better final round, because then he had to make some of the literally, like, the best shots of his life. To win it. And like putting. He put the pressure on himself by choking a couple times. But then it turned around and it was like Chris said, it was like one hole. You were like, jesus Christ, man. Like, that's, that was. You're. You're blowing it. And then the next hole is like, holy shit, that was incredible. I don't know how he put it through the trees and got it that close to the pin.

[Chris Cody]

Let's play some sound so that you can hear in his own words what the emotion was for Rory McElroy.

[Stugotz]

But, you know, there's talking about it and actually doing it. And, yeah, today was. Today was difficult. I was unbelievably nervous this morning, really nervous on the first hole, as you.

[Dan LeBatard]

Witnessed with the double.

[Stugotz]

But as I said, that sort of calmed me down and, you know, I was able to bounce back and show, you know, that resilience that I've talked about a lot. And, yeah, no, look, it was a. It was a heavy weight to carry. And, you know, thankfully now I don't have to carry it and it frees me up. And, you know, I know I'm coming back here every year, which is lovely.

[Chris Cody]

I read some stories about, as I do every year, what an economic insanity. The Masters is like. There are people there who pay for their mortgages by just being Airbnb their homes for the week. One of the things that golf does extraordinarily well, put up the emotion again of Rory just walking through here, where the entire story that goes back decades, you can actually see on his face. Do you realize how incredible the Access is here? Because all throughout sports, contractually there are all sorts of interviews, sideline interviews. Let's talk to this person now. It's all manufactured. Nothing. Look at this as the access, where you can. You are closer to this human being than anyone in the world, as he feels the best things he's ever felt at golf. And one of the reasons this tournament is this is because of how sacred the televising of it is. And Nance is whispering the whole time that he's talking about this.

[Stugotz]

Oh, the production knocked it out the park. That was just such a well produced moment in time. And the afterglow was just delivering and made it that much better. I remember, like, the celebration more than the tremendous day of golf. And it was awesome.

[Jessica]

This is the last event where obviously, because they banned cell phones, people still wave their hats like this right when they're celebrating. What's another event where people are waving their cats caps in the air?

[Stugotz]

Horse racing they still do it, right?

[Jessica]

I've never seen it.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, I think at the Kentucky Derby, it's still part of the.

[Jessica]

People wave their caps.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, yeah, it's still part of it.

[Jessica]

Oh, man.

[Dan LeBatard]

Can we shout out the camera guy walking backwards with Rory through this? Because I'm telling you, this is. There's a lot of hills. This is not an easy walk to walk backwards. He did it for, like, shout out.

[Jessica]

To his grip, who probably has a hand on the back coiling, saying, go this way, go that way.

[Chris Cody]

Do me a favor, please, video, and I will wait and filibuster for you to do this, because the best camera work that I saw this weekend before this is when somebody on Twitter sent out what they call the best camera work they've ever seen of a diver being attacked by an octopus. Please find that video so that we can play it here, but in the interim, can you find me an artificial intelligence? Stugatz. This is part of what I'm working with John Amici on, seeing what we can do to improve our corporate culture around here. Can we get some Stubbots talking about. Talking about what it is that he witnessed yesterday? Because I'm assuming that most people want to hear Masters week, Dano. From what? From Stugotz. And also I want to put some bets in for tomorrow on whether, when Stugatz gets here tomorrow, how many times he will call him McLeroy instead of McElroy because he's got a weird golf dyslexia that only applies to Rory.

[Jessica]

The screen right now. This is the cameraman walking with his guy behind him, guiding him. Where to go? Shout out to both of them. The greatest, the grips. They never get the credit they deserve. Shout out to the grips.

[Chris Cody]

Oh, Dan.

[Jessica]

Oh, I thought you'd never get to me. Masters week, rory, congrats.

[Chris Cody]

Congrats, McLeroy.

[Jessica]

You finally did it. Now do it again next year and do it without a playoff.
