[B]

Greg Cody is leaning back in his chair satisfied with the performance. He's a bit post coital. He showed you what it sounded after consummation and looked like when he is very good. Very good.

[C]

Very good.

[B]

Greg Cody, you seem satisfied with your performance today. What do you think Tony is going to happen to the betting here where you thought he would fade by hour two? It seems like you've lost that bet. I'm betting he's pretty useless tomorrow. I don't think he's going to be very good tomorrow. That would be my bet. Jeremy, which way did you side on this?

[A]

I said let's just hand him the ball and let him go until the wheels fall off. They never fell off. I'm ready for this to continue into tomorrow. I expect excellence.

[E]

Wow.

[C]

Thank you.

[F]

Jeremy.

[B]

Excellent content.

[A]

Bender into tomorrow.

[B]

He needs to go on 10 day vacations more often.

[F]

Was that Party Supreme?

[A]

Sometimes I can't break character.

[B]

It was so popular it took over the Internet. I'd see you dried that right into.

[A]

People love the outfit changes. They definitely, definitely didn't throw homophobic slurs at me.

[F]

We did you a disservice. For whatever reason, about midweek everyone decided Marty supreme bad. We hate this person now. Timothy Chalamet bad. And we just. It wasn't a winning position. But you did great with the assignment.

[G]

Why do we keep glossing over that opera Sucks. Whatever.

[F]

Another solid point.

[E]

A great point.

[A]

Really wild part is he's been saying that since like his first movies ever. I saw several clips of him using it as an example. Back when he was doing Call Me by youy Name.

[G]

Yeah, he's been on this. He's been right for a long time.

[B]

LeBron James comes to town with the Lakers on Thursday. I've been trying to get to this since the first hour. You guys pushed me off of it. I don't think he's going to play. Do you guys think he's going to play? Does he play? He plays in Orlando and then he's not going to play it back to back.

[A]

I think he.

[G]

Well, we're going to find out tonight, right? Because tonight the lake. So Lakers played two nights ago. He played. It was actually his second game since returning from, you know, when he.

[B]

Arthritis of the foot.

[G]

He hurt the right elbow and then the left elbow both in the same play. He remembered the left one was the one that was hurting at the right. And so he played two games since then. Tonight they're in Houston, tomorrow they're here. So if you're a Heat fan going to the game tomorrow, you have to hope he does not play tonight.

[F]

I mean that, that Houston game is way more important to them in their conference. He doesn't play down here. Although the subplot of avenging Kobe Bryant does loom.

[G]

Dan, my son, my 17 year old son is a huge LeBron James fan. It is his favorite player and for his birthday a couple months ago, I bought, bought him two tickets to go to the game tomorrow because he's like, maybe it'll be the last time to see LeBron.

[C]

You know, he said it like that.

[G]

Yes. With the arms and everything.

[F]

That's today's NBA though. You got to see like back ends of back to backs when you buy.

[G]

No, I knew, I knew it was a back. I knew it was. I knew it. I bought the tickets, Dan. These were not cheap tickets. I got him great seats. They're right next to the laker bench.

[F]

Well, LeBron will be there.

[G]

He better play tomorrow. I spent a lot of money. I'm not going. I don't care to go.

[B]

They have another big draw.

[G]

Well, that's not the draw. My son wants to go see. He wants to see LeBron.

[A]

You're talking about me, right? As I work as the sideline reporter for the game.

[B]

Juju, we're going to get to you here in a second. But another thing that Zaz was screaming at me about when he was criticizing me after the first hour because there were a couple of different things. He was complaining that I had not ridden Greg Cody on all the topics that he missed while he was away. Because Greg Cody while he gave us cruise ship video. It rarely said anything other than I had the beef tenderloin and it wasn't very topical or timely.

[C]

But it was good.

[B]

Well, it was. It was self involved. So speed him up Chris, so that we can get to a number of topics. Dad. As fast as we can here. 20 seconds or less on each topic. Tua is released by the dolphins. 20 seconds of thoughts.

[C]

It's just as well. It was a long time coming. They did the best they could to get a QB one at a reasonable price in Malik Willis can. They can Tuna or Tua. Whatever I said the first time. Go on. Next.

[B]

Malik Willis is the Dolphins quarterback.

[C]

Nothing wrong with that. It proves they're not tanking. They spent to get the best available free agent. Good for the Dolphins.

[B]

Bam Adebayo is 83 points.

[C]

Love Bam Adebayo. Not considered a Great scorer scoring 83 points more than anybody in history. But Wilt whose game I saw by the way on tv. I love that Bam did it. And I hate all the instant criticism. Forget about it. Of course he's going to try to get get those points and pass Kobe for second place. Get off his back, Jack.

[G]

Does anyone else want to point out that he's just blatantly lying?

[C]

No, he saw it.

[G]

He wasn't on tv.

[E]

Magnavox.

[F]

You talked to a former president about it?

[C]

Yeah. No, I saw it. I was there. I gave him the card that said 100. I wrote the hundred on the card that I handed him.

[A]

Where were you when that happened?

[C]

I was in the arena. But they had a TV in the arena, so I was doing both.

[A]

In what town?

[C]

I forget. You know, it's a long time ago, Jeremy.

[A]

No, that's fair.

[C]

Long time ago, Greta. And so forth and so forth and so on.

[B]

Ellipses, Juju is here. I'm sorry we missed out on all those thoughts. Live. The world was denied.

[C]

Thank you.

[B]

What was that sound? What was that snorting over there? Snorted at the idea that the world would be denied that analysis. He snorted at the idea that anybody would have wanted that five or six days ago. And I think he snorted at himself for criticizing me for not going to it earlier.

[C]

Juju, thank you. Zaza's father, Bill Plasky would not be very proud of him right now.

[B]

Juju, what do you have for us today? We've got to get to the polls. And what else do we have to get to with you today?

[E]

Yes, sir. In honor of Dominique foxworth joining the show today and his Internet crapping out, let's do some post show awards. So I want to start it off by giving the courage slash purple heart award to Greg Cody for fighting through a bad throat day, battling it and carrying us.

[F]

Great shout.

[E]

Thank you, sir.

[C]

Thank you.

[E]

Also want to give the player hater of the day award to my brother. And it hurts for me to do this to my brother Tony. No, for the Roy. It might have been accurate. It was player haters. It was hilarious. But you get the award, bro. Let's clap it up for my boy.

[B]

Third place in the turkey division against turkey. That's the line of the show for me.

[A]

Despite everything Greg did the turkey.

[E]

I want to give the mispronouncification award to my brother Jeremy the bear me for that Greta situation.

[A]

Thank you.

[C]

Yes.

[A]

Perfect.

[B]

Did he say Greta? I'm still unclear on this. Let's listen to it again.

[A]

They're essentially a blockage for you, Greta.

[B]

It was a mild taste. It is. If I hit him in the nipple with a tase at the amount at the moment that he said Grant.

[A]

They're essentially a blockage for you, Greta Graham. Damn, it's gonna stick.

[E]

And lastly, lastly, I want to give you the thank you for clearing that up award. To you, Dan, for that whole Mike Colin Jr. Situation. Yeah, well, thank you so much.

[A]

I already say the n word thing.

[F]

Wait a minute.

[E]

Come on, man. I just. I'll be trying here.

[A]

Someone clipped that.

[F]

Yeah. And you may be awarded the next. Thank you for clarifying. Go ahead.

[B]

Joker of the day. Outside of that category and those categories, do you have a joker of the day for us?

[E]

Yes, sir, man. The joker of the day goes to my brother, the creative chancleta tossing Alex Caruso for blocking a shot last night with his shoe that came off. Got a technical file for it, but it was innovative nevertheless.

[B]

It's the first time any of us have ever seen that happen. Correct. That we can say that is without press.

[F]

I've seen some wild stuff on a pickup court. I've seen people throw a shoe. Yeah, but swatting at one. I didn't know that it was illegal in that sport.

[G]

You didn't know it was illegal?

[F]

I've never had the opportunity to test it out.

[G]

But if somebody said to you, do

[C]

you think this is illegal?

[G]

You'd be like, I don't know.

[F]

Yes. Because I'd never seen it before. I. Sometimes they're. It's an admirable thing to say. You don't know. Something says, you know what?

[G]

If you. I've never seen it before either, but if you said to me, can someone take off their jersey and smack someone in the face while they're dribbling the ball? Is that illegal? I'd say, you know, yeah, it is.

[F]

He blocked the ball on smack face. Look, there are degrees to this thing. I would say yes to that. That feels more illegal than.

[B]

Do you guys think that someone would be allowed to take off a cleat in a football game and try and hit a thrown pass with it?

[G]

You never seen that, Mike?

[F]

Yeah, I think that there are rules against this. When we did the whole, like, do we put a seven footer behind, you know, the goal post?

[E]

In front of the goal post?

[F]

Yeah, to swat it. Good idea. I also think throwing projectiles out of football is illegal juju.

[B]

Do you have any information or details on Kenyon Martin and whatever happened with Gilbert Arenas? And who was. Who's he mad at now? Like, I. Kenyon Martin gets legitimately pissed off. Look, everyone knows you don't mess with Kenyon Martin. One time, a long time ago, they filled his car with popcorn, and everybody ended up being afraid on that team because they did that to him in order to prank him. What happened here most recently with Kenyon Martin, Right?

[E]

So most people know that Kenya has a speech impediment. It used to be way worse than it is now. So one of the producers of the show was filmed being caught talking behind Kenya Martin's back. And while saying, one of his friends was like, man, Kenya Martin, he's the glue of that show. And his friend came up, man, he got a speech impediment. He can't be no glue. And Kenya Martin messed around and got that video. Lord have mercy. Confronted the boy live on the camera on the show and said, y' all want to know what disloyal look like? You're looking at him. Look at this. Disloyal. Didn't even get up, bro. So I'm like, whoa, that. That was a lot for me. But it made me think, when was the last time when I hate it on somebody? You know what I mean? I want to ask the room, poll the room, because it's been a lot of hate last week for Bam as well. I want to volunteer. The last time I hated on somebody was an embarrassing situation and I should be thrown in jail. The Celtics won a championship. It was a line to take A picture with the trophy. We was getting it off. It was like a whole bunch of civilians getting to take the pictures with the trophy. And then right when I got to the front, the security guard said, hey, if you're not a player, I need you to step over here. Then Deuce Tatum walked up and grabbed the trophy, and I was like, he ain't on the damn team. I done hated on Deuce, bro. I'm embarrassed for that. So anybody else got.

[B]

Look at him.

[E]

He's living.

[B]

He's leaving himself vulnerable here. Who's willing to admit to I player hated on Roy?

[E]

I did it today, and I won an award.

[B]

But you've already been called out on it, though. That's not you offering up a vulnerability. That's juju pointing out in front of everybody what you did. Third in the Turkey competition, though.

[C]

Top three.

[E]

It's all good. We can switch from this, right?

[A]

I hate it on.

[E]

There we go. Thank you, brother. We can switch. It ain't no fruit on this tree. But I got a question for Mike. Yesterday. Yesterday, I seen some crazy news come in from the caf saying that they have overturned the result of the 2025 AFCON final, declaring that Senegal was forfeited the match after leaving the pitch. What in the hell is this, brother?

[F]

Yeah, I want to get into this a little bit more tomorrow because I have a little bit more research to do this. This final was, you know, hotly contested and a big deal while it was happening. Senegal was crowned Afcon champs. And several months after the fact, Afcon has reversed that decision, ruling that Senegal should have lost the game 30 via forfeit, and the runners up, Morocco, are now champions. This has huge ramifications in a continent where this stuff gets really violent. So we have to see where. Where this stuff lands. But it's a huge story in soccer right now, right?

[E]

How does the betting work if I won?

[F]

Yeah.

[E]

Like.

[F]

Yeah, yeah. Interpersonal ramifications aside, I do wonder what happens to a betting ticket.

[C]

What?

[B]

It seemed like you wanted to talk your left hand to talk.

[C]

As acutely as I follow Senegal soccer, I just didn't have a.

[E]

Did you. This happened before where you have something

[B]

and then you forget it?

[C]

No.

[E]

Did that happen there? No.

[G]

But you're in involuntarily raised.

[A]

It did seem like you were calling for the ball.

[C]

I wasn't raising my arm.

[A]

Just sitting like that.

[B]

Let's look at the cameras and let's see if we can accuse. Let's see. No.

[C]

No.

[B]

Well, they're not going to have it Instantaneously, we'll be able to accuse you

[C]

after the show and have a is what you're about to see.

[B]

You were calling for the ball. We. It's okay. Wait till tomorrow. It's going to be worse tomorrow. I'm promising you.

[A]

We didn't get it on camera.

[C]

So.

[B]

Juju, the polls please. And a reminder, at 2:45 today, we've got a higher live stream. We want you to be a part of what we're doing. Greg, you keep laughing at this.

[C]

I'm sorry. Just the idea of a live stream about highlight is funny to me.

[B]

I'm telling you that it's one of the prouder things. I never got the conversation off the ground. There's no fruit on that tree, as Juju likes to say. But in. In terms of things that this show has done, I'm not joking with you when I say Chris and Mike owning a highlight team and also broadcasting live from that in representation of Meadowlark media represents for me one of the proudest, fun and funny things that our show has ever done. We own a sports team, a defending champion sports team in a sport that only South Florida is keeping alive in the entirety of the United States. Right. This has died in Connecticut, Correct? This is the only place that Highlight

[F]

still exists in the states. Yes. There are other places in the world, the bass country, the Philippines, where Highlight exists as a competitive sport. This is the only place where Battle Court exists, which is this league's take on that sport.

[B]

2:45 today, there will be a live stream. And if you want to support something we've been supporting since we tried to keep Daniel Highlai alive with poker tournaments and helped keep Dana Highlai alive for a long time. If you want to support the thing that a show that our show proudly

[F]

supports over Greg Cody's laughter, look, condition yourself this window. You're all going to be watching sports just come tomorrow, right? Like tomorrow and Friday you're going to be watching sports at this time. Let's precondition your bodies right now and learn about a sport. Consider this a primer. This is going to be very educational. We're not going to talk to you like you're stupid. Because guys, we're kind of stupid.

[G]

We're going to teach you pelota polls

[B]

Juju at Lebatard show. What do you got?

[E]

You know about that upside down pineapple on the door? 75 of the audience says yes, they do.

[B]

Maybe I feel so ignorant.

[E]

Are cruises swinging hindenisms, hedonisms. Excuse me. 90 of the audience says yes, they are swinging. Hedonisms, baby.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Fingers to give off without making any noise somehow.

[E]

A quiet snap. Last poll, man. The most important poll of the day. If you go to key west for six days and you finish third in the turkey category against the kids. LOL. 82% of the audience says yes. Greg.

[F]

Greg has now found a way to look like and resemble two South Florida team owners. He started with Jeffrey Lauria, but now he's in his Mickey Arison phase.

[B]

Why are you snapping your fingers and swivel without snapping? And your snapping fingers aren't making any sounds?

[C]

How about now? You're for sale.

[F]

I can't wait for that.

[C]

Count rooms to let. 50 cents. I'm Greg the Breedy D. Come on.

[B]

I'm Greg Cody.

[E]

And that's how it was.

[B]

Not what we do.
