1. Universal Time Zone Debate

Timestamp: 02:25 – 05:09

This proposed system would align with Zazzle's current time zone, effectively benefiting those east of the US while disadvantaging regions like Hawaii.

Stugotz (02:46): "People who live east of us get a full day to relive... but everyone lives west of us. They're kind of screwed. I thought that kind of sucked for Hawaii."

Dan Le Batard (03:14): "It's a tough one because I do think about how different time zones impact our daily lives, especially with events like football games starting at staggered times across the country."

The hosts weigh the practicality of such a change, considering human habits and the adaptability required to embrace a single global time standard. They discuss the challenges of adjusting daily schedules, particularly for those managing fantasy sports lineups.

Dan Le Batard (05:30): "How do you handle opening a live stream by accident? It's those moments that keep you on your toes."

[Podcast Contributor]

I didn't know we updated the against the spread music.

What is this? Fold Puts down a parlay.

Against the spread. Against the spread. All right, guys, I got us today. Me. I'm the one that famously gave you terrible Trevor Rogers betting advice in weeks past. But we changed the tide today. Does it tide change or does it rise? We rise the tide today, Marlins.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

Is it rise or raise? Who knows except those two in that. In that studio over there.

[Podcast Contributor]

It's me.

Against the spread. Back to you, AM okay, there it is.

Against the spread. New music.

[Podcast Host]

Come on.

[Podcast Contributor]

That's better.

Fievel puts down a parlay. I thought that was a good joke. I don't know. Juju. What's up, man?

[Podcast Host]

Speaking of fifo. Put down a parlay. Shouts out to everybody who's not. Then Thursday, Sunday, you feel me? Only get on DraftKings.

[Podcast Contributor]

There it is. Start a streak. That's how a streak starts, Juju. Before we get to the polls and to the reviews and everything, Zazzle left. But before he left, he made a proclamation that we should have one universal time zone for the entire world. It's the Lord's time, he calls it. And it just happens to be the same time zone that he lives in.

Coincidence.

But part of this is that people who live east of us get a full day to relive. Right. Because they get New Year's evil. And then they get to do the second New Year's as they adjust to the new time zone. But everyone lives west of us. They're kind of screwed. I thought that kind of sucked for Hawaii. Now the thing that Chris said was that you live in Hawaii. You don't get to. You don't get to complain about losing a day. Juju, what side of the argument do you fall on?

[Podcast Host]

Right. It's a tough one because I do. Like our 1pm Starts here on the East Coast. Football starts at 1pm But I always think, damn, we. What is it, 11am on the West Coast? That's 10am That's a whole different life structure. So I'm not sure though I'm gonna.

[Podcast Contributor]

Tell you right now, it's beautiful.

I would forget. I would forget to set my fantasy lineups like three times a season. If it was at 10am I'm gonna.

Tell you right now, it would happen to you a couple of times and then you'd get used to it because at 10am you're ready. You already get started on the day. And the.

But I've been in Vegas. It sneaks up on me.

The beautiful. Well, it's. Cause you're just there for a day. If you live there, it'd be a. And then here's the big part you guys keep talking about. Oh, it starts at 10. It ends a lot earlier too. You got your whole day after that.

Sunday Night Football's done at like 8pm.

Yeah, I'm gonna mean Hammer's own a point by covering his mouth and talking into the microphone. It's such a good.

It's a great audio device. Now, Dan Levatar doesn't appreciate it. Will you speak up? Why don't you be professional? Speak up to the microphone. But a lack in the last.

I just realized which. So Chris said earlier that if you get the extra day that it can. It doesn't have to be New Year's Day. Right? Who said that? Somebody said that. So why wouldn't you just get your extra day on your birthday? You got back to back birthdays. It's all about you right there.

If you live east of here.

Right.

Right.

If you live in Hawaii, you live.

You're screwed.

You don't just get to choose when you get the extra day at a certain point in time. No, he was just saying you just pick a day and today's the day.

Yeah.

We all switch back. I mean, it could just happen to fall on Your birthday, but it's not like you have a day. And you're like, I want an extra day.

Pick daylight savings time day. They just picked a day, Right?

All right, so we'll do it on Izzy's birthday. Sorry. We're gonna. Let's all agree it'll be on his birthday.

It's, like, halfway through the year, so it's like half a new year.

Equinox.

[Podcast Host]

Right, Right. Speaking of falling into things, I like to get some advice for you guys from you guys. What do you guys do whenever you open up Instagram and you just open. Like, you see a notification come down, but you accidentally touch it, and now you in someone's lives, and it's you and three other brothers in there.

[Podcast Contributor]

And then they shout you out, hey, we got. Dude, you got in here.

That's. There's no more panic than you're like, all right, you know what? I'm going to tune into this live. And there's. And there's zero people, and you're the. And it's just like, I get out so fast.

I just. I just correct their grammar, and they kick me out immediately.

[Podcast Host]

Oh, man. I give them a good four, five minutes. I'm like, I met. Bump it. New Artists of the Year right here. Let's hear it, Juju.

[Podcast Contributor]

What you got to do is you just got to interact. Interact a lot, and then at some point, they'll feel the awkwardness, and you're like, all right, I got to run.

It happened to me one time. I was stuck for an hour.

What?

Y.

No way.

I swear on my life. And I just. I just was very careful about that. That's when I learned what Instagram loves.

I've left comments before. And then I get this weird. And everyone's going to think this is weird. I get this, like, weird anxiety of, like, oh, no, they're about to read my comment. I'll, like, leave. Oh, no, I'll just, like, leave a comment. And then I'm like. It seems like they're at about the time they're going to comment on it, and I just. I don't. I can't explain it. I just get this anxiety of. I don't want them to say something negative that I don't want to hear, so I just exit out.

I'm the opposite. I want to. I was like, read my comment. Read my. I can't leave as you read my comment.

Whose lives are you commenting on, Chris?

I'm trying to think where I did this last.

Well, what are you saying?

[Podcast Host]

Dua lipa.

[Podcast Contributor]

Like, what's the nature of your comment?

I think the last time I did it was some, like, poker guy was live, and I was just like, oh, you should have done this. And I was like, he's gonna see my opinion on this and call me an idiot. I was like, I need to get out of here.

I thought you were gonna say that you suck.

[Podcast Host]

Earlier in the show, Izzy, you said, once there's been vomit in the pool, it's over with. Don't think about the pool. Which made me think about the Stanley Cup. I saw a seal eating fish out of the Stanley cup yesterday. Is it done? Can you drink beer still out of it? What do y' all think about that?

[Podcast Contributor]

I mean, you could clean it.

You gotta. Gotta get that lemon. That lemon pledge that Billy Joel drank.

Juju. I saw that same exact video. And then yesterday, they took the Stanley cup to, like, the Coldplay concert. Were drinking, they were chugging out of it. I was like, man, I don't know how deep cleaning, like, how much deep cleaning you need to do in that thing, but, like, to your point, like a seal, sea lion, whatever it was, was drinking out, was eating raw fish out of that yesterday. Like, I. I think I'm gonna give that a couple days.

Is he. How do you say seal in Spanish?

What is it? Faco? Faco, Something like that.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

Excuse me?

[Podcast Contributor]

Like, Edie.

I know, I know. In French. In French, it's Falk.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

Oh, Falco.

[Podcast Contributor]

Falco. Remember Falco.

Shane Falco.

That was a moment. Not. Not Shane Falco.

You were hiding behind the jukebox, Right?

[Podcast Host]

Also, another moment. Last week, I think Bill Belichick's press conference didn't get too crazily dissected because I feel like during the press conference is when Hulk Hogan was announced to be presumed Dean. Great.

[Podcast Contributor]

Great.

[Podcast Host]

Hell yeah. So, yeah, I think that's why I flew under the radio.

[Podcast Contributor]

The radar PR team of Bill Belichick. Happy with that news.

Maybe he killed him. Wow.

[Podcast Host]

Okay.

[Podcast Contributor]

That'd be a long reckless.

[Podcast Host]

Okay, my bad. Also, congratulations. Freddie Gibbs put out a great CD this weekend with the Alchemist. Everybody. Check that out, man. Hip hop. Oh, head. Hip hop is bad.

[Podcast Contributor]

I was about to ask you that. Are we having a moment for old heads?

[Podcast Host]

Yeah, man. Like, I think they're just being showing that no matter what age you are, what your dream is, bruh, you could do it, man. Like the Adam Sandler movie. You can do it. Push the T48. And malice is 51.

[Podcast Contributor]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host]

You feel me? All these guys are in their higher 40s. And Raekwon just dropped the album. So whatever you out there doing, man, you're not too old. You're not too long in the tooth, man. Jelly Roll just got what, album of the year or one of the things that he's 40 years old. So, man, keep pushing, man.

[Podcast Contributor]

You can hear the wisdom in their lyrics too.

[Podcast Host]

Right? Right.

[Podcast Contributor]

Hip hop, guys.

Speaking of, you can do it, what'd you think of Happy Gilmore? Too.

[Podcast Host]

Happy. To Happy. Give it to America. Look, I think it wasn't as bad as the Internet is making it, because once Zaz put this in perspective, I was like, okay, cool. Once you go in knowing that you watching Happy Gilmore, I get it. But I didn't necessarily crack a smile the entire time, bro. I was happy to see Bobon. I was happy to see. It was a couple jokes that lavar made when he was talking to Charlie hall that was kind of funny. But in general, I don't know, man. It might have missed me, but I'm so happy that everybody got their cameos. Cameron Stat, Kelsey Plum.

[Podcast Contributor]

Bad friends.

[Podcast Host]

Right? I love all of that, but I don't know. I'm a comedian, so don't take me serious.

[Podcast Contributor]

That plot twist at the beginning was just hard to get past for me. That was the biggest criticism for me. Like. And in the first one, see, I don't want to give anything. I don't want to ruin anything. But in the first one, there were some shocking similar twists that I kind of forgot about how ridiculous those were. So it is kind of like a rinse repeat with, like, you know, something shocking. But I was just. I giggled a couple times when he was drinking out of random stuff. Come on. That was a little funny. I'm reaching here. Juju. I'm with you. I'm trying. I'm just trying to be positive.

Reaching, like Mr. Fantastic.

I'm trying to find fantastic. I just didn't despise it. Can I say that?

[Podcast Host]

Okay, yeah, that's. That's a good one. I didn't despise it either. I also don't despise what C World is doing after having a. A bad track record. SeaWorld is back right now.

[Podcast Contributor]

Super back.

You guys know about this? No, Mike, you know about this. So SeaWorld has decided just have, like, a concert series back. You know where the place where Shamu and all those guys were. Now it's like we just have like.

90S and early 2000 show a couple weeks ago. Looked kind of sad.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

Well, because they're so far away from the crowd, it does make something awkward, but the crowd at the Waka Flocka.

[Podcast Contributor]

Waka Flocka went crazy this weekend. Crazy this weekend. And then we had Yin Yang twins, like, about two or three weeks ago. We had. Who else?

[DraftKings Advertiser]

I like that.

[Podcast Host]

Bow wow.

[Podcast Contributor]

Bow wow, soldier boy. Like, it's been a great, great thing that they've done as far as, like, hey, we can't have these animals being, you know, subjugated in this torture theater anymore. Let's have some rap acts.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

Let's go Yin Yang in this thing.

[Podcast Host]

Yeah.

[Podcast Contributor]

Oh, that's all that's used for now. They don't even have, like, I didn't even know that. I thought that there was, like, a whale show, and then you get fat.

Like the water in there.

Oh, so those pie people show up to that thing just for the music? Yeah, I thought that they were getting a whale show, and then they throw.

I think the whale show's done.

Oh, okay.

[Podcast Host]

I'm over with.

[Podcast Contributor]

Nice. As it should be.

There you go.

Definitely pay for a show. Bow wow and a whale performing together.

Oh, my God.

Who opens for who?

[Podcast Host]

All right, Come back of the year. Them and Red Lobster right now.

[Podcast Contributor]

Let me tell you something, man. Every once in a while, I realize I've turned into an old black man. Because when I. I found out that.

CEO, he's like, I'm likable.

No, but. But he's a terrible actor. Like, he's bad at reading lines. But I'm like, but Red Lobster is back. And I'm like, go ahead, young brother. Go ahead. Look at the young bro. I just turned into an old black man on a porch. I was so proud of this guy.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

You look behind you even though no one's behind you.

[Podcast Contributor]

Hey, you hear this for me?

But no. Hey, I'm so happy. And he's, like, 34, too.

He's a young guy thinking about it and start nodding. Like, what are you nodding about?

Real groundbreaking. A Fisherman's feast.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

Endless shrimp.

[Podcast Contributor]

SeaWorld San Diego is the one you. To SeaWorld Orlando. The concerts are not as good as the SeaWorld San Diego. SeaWorld San Diego, August 9th. Mark your calendars. Trina will be there. And then a week later on the 16th, genuine.

I don't like that a South Florida legend like Trina has to perform all the way in.

What's the Orlando one? What does Orlando have?

Well, on the flip side, we have on August 9, a Luke Bryan tribute band.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

Scroll down.

[Podcast Contributor]

Well, no, I'm building up to that one. Yeah, there's a real winner then. We have Fleetwood Max is going to be there.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

Fleetwood Max.

[Podcast Contributor]

Yeah.

There go Waka Flocka on the screen.

That's yet another tribute band. And then August 24th, Lee Greenwood.

Yeah, look at this. We got Waka Flock in San Diego. Look at this.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

They got Fuel and Lit playing on the same bill in the.

[Podcast Contributor]

That sounds dangerous.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

May have to, May have to make a trip up for that one. Fuel and Lit.

[Podcast Contributor]

Don't let the fuel dude do anything.

Else you want to get to before we get to the polls.

[Podcast Host]

That's pretty much it, man. Also, great day in the WNBA yesterday. The Atlanta Dream became the first team to beat the Minnesota Links on their home court this year. You feel me? Without Ryan Howard, big BG in the building. Neither here nor there. But yeah, man. Great stuff in the W yesterday.

[Podcast Contributor]

Awesome.

[Podcast Host]

Now the pose. Do you get to a lot of. No. Do you get a lot of stuff done on January the first? 93% of the audience says, no, they do not.

[Podcast Contributor]

You get a whole extra day on January 1st. Get things done. I'm like, no one's doing anything.

Not a damn thing.

Diet always starts January 2nd because it's like, I need this data.

Unless the second is a Saturday. Right?

Because then it starts, like, on the first Monday.

There you go.

Right?

[Podcast Host]

And the last poll. Is it sad when an adult posts their high school stats? 94% of the audience says, yes, it is sad.

[Podcast Contributor]

Sorry.

[Podcast Host]

Those are your pose.

[Podcast Contributor]

Speaking of sad, I got unsolicited advice from a listener the other day, and it made me very sad. He was. I don't know why you would think I would want help on this, but he was talking about my armpit sweat, and he just randomly said, hey, I've had this problem in the past. This thing works for me like crazy. And I was just like, do I need. Am I insulted? Should I feel insulted or should I. Like, it gives the impression that I stink. But you guys know I don't stink.

Hold on. What's the advice?

It's like follicle removal. Like, it's, it's.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

Oh, really?

[Podcast Contributor]

Yeah.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

I went to a natural deodorant and that.

[Podcast Contributor]

Terrible.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

No, it worked.

[Podcast Contributor]

Them joints is terrible.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

It worked. I, I, you, you still have to spray because it doesn't do enough about the, the body smell. But in turn, I used to have really bad sweat around that.

[Podcast Contributor]

Would you offer that unsolicited advice to somebody you were watching or would you just.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

I mean, if it's something, if it's something that I saw routinely with you, I'd be like, hey, I switched to this deodorant I got the rid of. Like, the one that I thought, would.

[Podcast Contributor]

It bother you, like, if you knew that I don't stink, but I got a little sweat under the armpits. Would it bother you to see it?

[DraftKings Advertiser]

I would also assume it's because you wear very tight T shirts, too.

[Podcast Contributor]

You're not really a lot of oxygen going on over there.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

It's also part of your. I mean, I'd hate to describe this as a problem because it's honestly because.

[Podcast Contributor]

Impressive your ability to pull off. Not like, because I do associate you with armpit sweat, but never smell.

[Podcast Host]

Wow.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

The shirt you're wearing right now, the Lacoste T shirt. I have one of those too. And I'm nervous to wear it because I'm like this. This could be an armpit sweat type of T shirt. It hugs the armpit there.

[Podcast Contributor]

The pastel colors. It really shows.

Yeah.

I will be more aware of it because I didn't realize it affects other people.

No, listen, it happens to everybody. You brought it up.

I know, but if somebody is willing to give me unsolicited advice who I've never met on a via DM on some social app, then maybe I should.

And also that Chris says I associate you with armpit sweats.

Yeah, that was.

No. I think I may have. I think I said that.

Dude didn't know I was fat when I was a kid, but associates me with armpits. With armpits.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

This one's for free.

[Podcast Contributor]

Have we met?

[DraftKings Advertiser]

Arm and Hammer.

[Podcast Contributor]

Yeah. I'm a little like Billy, though. I'm afraid with too many swipes that maybe one day you just get armpit cancer.

Okay.

[Podcast Host]

Oh, thanks.

[DraftKings Advertiser]

You want to get away from the ones with aluminum in them.

[Podcast Contributor]

Do. Thanks. See you tomorrow.

[Podcast Host]

Yes, sir. Congrats, Bubba. Wallace, Brickyard, 400.

[Podcast Contributor]

Yeah, go ahead, young brother. Go ahead.
