[Greg Cody]

Against the spring.

[Julian G]

Against. The spread is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings.

[Juju]

The Crown is yours. Chris, go ahead.

[Greg Cody]

Last week I gave you Commanders plus two and a half and I said fade me. So if you did good job this week, I actually am going to give you one. I, I. You can fade me if you want, but I like the Bears at home minus three against the Steelers. Steelers going in the wrong direction. I think the Bears are going in the right direction at home. They played a bunch of close games. I can actually win this one fairly easily. Probably win by 10, 12 points over the Steelers. Give me the Bears minus three at home. Dad, what do you got?

[Dad]

I gotta take Virginia tech to cover 17 and a half points at home against the Miami Hurricanes. The Hurricanes are coming off a big win. They have a bigger game next week. I don't quite trust them on the road. And you got Virginia Tech players trying to impress their new head coach, James Franklin. I just think they're a good home dog.

[Julian G]

Let's bring aboard Juju. How you doing this morning, Juju?

[Guest]

It's not Juju.

[Julian G]

That is Julian G. Julian G. Sorry, sorry. It's not Fine, it's his real name.

[Guest]

Come on now. Playboy Cardi right there. I'm wearing the shirt. That's my guy right there.

[Juju]

Yes, sir. Atlanta, stand up.

[Julian G]

Yeah, don't ask me to name my favorite song. Too many lists, Greg.

[Dad]

Too many list.

[Greg Cody]

We've learned that your son likes rappers and Arab fighters.

[Julian G]

Oh, my God. Loves rap and loves the Arab fighters.

[Greg Cody]

Lucky J. Yep.

[Julian G]

There you go.

[Juju]

I want to kick this off by saying, I just want to kick this off. I love everything that we doing. I love all the guests we have, but I just want to send this message out to the audience. The oven is the exact worst place to hide anything a child wants. What about this? The dishwasher? Yes, maybe. But that child ain't gonna be able to differentiate. Sometimes he run in the kitchen, you cooking chicken? I know this from experience. They open that oven thinking there's some candy in there. They grab the chicken. Now we got. We got se. We got child protective services.

[Greg Cody]

All of a sudden, you're at Thanksgiving at grandma's house and like, oh, let me go. And then there's a turkey in there.

[Guest]

That's fair. When that door opens, that blast hits that kid so hard, you're not gonna be able to reach in all the way back.

[Greg Cody]

They gonna learn today.

[Juju]

[Greg Cody]

No, you're insane.

[Dad]

It takes a while. It takes a while to get. Get into that.

[Juju]

It's a slow build. Three minutes. I mean, it's pretty good. Once you. Once. Yeah, spoiler alert. Once you saw what was happening. At first, it's like, holy. Wait a second. But yeah, I mean, it's a little aggravating. See, somebody complain over and over about everything. Okay. The world's over. Neither here nor there.

[Guest]

Talk to them in a certain way.

[Greg Cody]

We just referenced Michael Jordan. Can I jump in real fast? Is that Wilt video? Because, like, I saw on Twitter, not real. Can't be real.

[Guest]

It's not.

[Greg Cody]

It's a Twitter trying to say, hey, this Wilt game was telephoto televised here. It is.

[Guest]

It's a real. It's real footage, but not from that game.

[Greg Cody]

Okay, sorry.

[Juju]

It's all good. It's very important to clarify that. I seen the Twitter note on that. That's how I knew it was fake. But number five, the Dan LeBatard show, with or without my boy.

[Guest]

Five, huh? Wow. I want to see who's in the top four.

Julian. Julian, G. Julie and G. Were you shocked at the end of the last episode?

[Juju]

Yes, sir. I definitely was, bruh. No spoilers here, but I was shot. I was shocked that this show was good too, because of the whole that movie snafu. What was this movie? Friendship Friendship movies now for? Yeah, I was like, I was gonna give this chair stuff a shot, but that's too embarrassing. I can't take it.

[Julian G]

What's the snafu with the movie Friendship?

[Juju]

The second hand embarrassment? The whole movie.

[Julian G]

Oh, yeah, yeah, you're right. But I still liked the movie.

[Greg Cody]

I didn't like it. I didn't like Friendship. I was just like.

No on Peacock right now. Check out all her fault for sure. And the number one show you should be watching right now. I shouldn't even have to say this, but hey, list our list. The mayor of Kingstowne.

[Guest]

Salute, Juju. I was dating a girl like four years ago who had Paramount plus, and I saw the first two episodes at her place, and then we broke up and I didn't have Paramount plus, so I never, never got back into it.

What?

[Julian G]

Yeah, Steve Curb bitching about, right, bruh?

[Juju]

He says, and I quote, the Miami game will be our 17th game in 29 days in 13 different cities. It's been the toughest early schedule I've ever been a part of in my entire NBA life. And all I heard while he was saying that was the smallest violin playing for my brother Greg Cod on the Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody. Because nobody gives a damn. You make so much money. This is what the cash is for. Get you some airborne, get you a Tylenol, get you some rest and get out there and play the heat right.

[Dad]

And plus, you're not out there playing Kerr. You're on a sideline going like this with your arms.

[Greg Cody]

You know what I heard by that? I heard him saying, jimmy's not playing Wednesday. It's just setting the table.

[Dad]

Yeah, it could be.

[Guest]

All right, that too.

[Greg Cody]

100, man. None of them are gonna play. It's gonna be infuriated.

[Julian G]

He should be Steve Carson. Be embarrassed. Are you kidding me? The way these guys travel nowadays. You go back in the 90s.

[Greg Cody]

They.

[Julian G]

They flew. They flew commercial.

[Guest]

No, they didn't. Yes, they did in the 90s. Yes, they did in the 90s. Not in the 90s.

[Greg Cody]

Keep saying, yes, they did.

[Juju]

Also, too side note, get the therapy ready for L. Duncan's daughter, Georgia.

[Greg Cody]

Oh, my. In the name of content. Like, she did the thing just to give us the content. It's like, what are you doing there?

[Juju]

Salute to her though, man. She's a great person. From Atlanta, Georgia. Al Duncan is a legend. I grew up with her on the radio, bro. On the hip hop station. So we always salute L. In Atlanta.

[Julian G]

Juju. Let's update. Sorry, Julie G. Let's update some polls. What do you got for us?

[Juju]

Yes, sir, of course I'm ready. Of course I have the polls on the. Ready in my hand at all times. And this is not me rambling. Did you know that your skin weighs roughly 20 pounds? 84 of the audience says, no, they did not.

[Greg Cody]

Now, that's why you watch the show for an education, right?

[Juju]

Have you ever used your oven for storage? 55 of the audience says, yes, they have. What is wrong with your people?

[Dad]

Unbelievable.

[Juju]

Come on, man.

[Greg Cody]

Dad, you use your microwave for storage?

[Dad]

The microwave? Yes.

[Greg Cody]

You're a big yes. That's who you do.

[Dad]

Yeah, we put loaves of bread and stuff like that in it. Yeah.

[Juju]

Stop snitching on. Stop snitching on Greg. No, I'm getting tired of it.

[Greg Cody]

No, that's not me stitching. That's more just like. That's a better. You like the microwave? Yeah, the microwave. Can't get it.

[Juju]

Yeah.

[Greg Cody]

In Greg's defense, that's also like. Like a bread box, right? Like.

[Guest]

But also.

[State Farm Announcer]

Exactly.

[Guest]

It felt a little like snitching. I gotta. I gotta did it.

[Greg Cody]

I really.

[Julian G]

You know what happens to snitches, right?

[Greg Cody]

I've heard they get hurt. Yeah.

[Juju]

You're always gonna open the microwave oven door, but you gotta preheat that oven. Ziggyck Jack. I like it. Also. Speaking of snitches right quick. Just reminds me, Tony, Romo and all the other aficionados who get the blessing of calling NFL games. Stop trying to tell me the flag before the referee. Tell me the flag, bro, you be wrong half of the time. Oh, looks like it's coming back, Jim. That's a holding. No, sir.

[Greg Cody]

Tirico loves to do that, too. Tirico loves to tell you where the penalty is coming from.

[Dad]

Yeah, I hate that.

[Julian G]

I like the drama of the referee getting there, and I gotta, like, like, oh, what's he gonna say? Who's gonna be on.

[Juju]

You know what I hate, right?

[Guest]

I. I hate when he's like. He walks up his butts it. Then he starts fumbling with his thing, then he turns around and he talks to the other, like, just say it.

[Julian G]

Be ready, dog.

[Juju]

Oh, my goodness. Would you be fat and bloated if you're stretching ramen noodles over two days, 51 of the audience says, yes, you would be split.

[Greg Cody]

It's true.

[Juju]

Yeah. I've stretched a pack of Roma noodles in my day. You feel me? Salute. Chicken flavor.

[Julian G]

Multiple meals.

[Juju]

Oh, yeah, multiple meals. You go two packs at once. Now, this is the part you get you a pack of baloney, though.

[Guest]

Hot dogs. I used to cut up the hot dog in it.

[Juju]

Oh, so you was rich. Oh, damn. I know we had a rich man in the building, but, yeah, fry that baloney, chop it up, throw it in the. The noodles, hot sauce, L.A. baller.

[Guest]

That's a good meal, man. Yes.

[Juju]

Yes, sir. Is Texas. Texas A M. Just a weird vortex in the universe? 87 of the audience says yes. And last poll, most important poll. Are you allowed to immediately retract your. Shut up. So it doesn't sting as much? 52% of the audience says, no, you can't. Those are your polls.

[Julian G]

Shut up for a second here.

[Dad]

That's tight.
