Juju tossed me a stat of the day here. The Ravens defense has four sacks this season. 39 year old Calais Campbell has three sacks this season. The Ravens defense has been truly epically terrible. We're going to get to the useless sound montage in a second. We're going to get to against the spread in a second. But first we have this breaking news from Jane Levy. We don't know where Jeremy slept last night and Jane Jan Levy.
Dan Le Batard
Levy, that's a fine.
Billy Gil
Sorry, my bad. Yes, you're levying a fine Jane Levy.
Dan Le Batard
That's my type of joke.
Billy Gil
Jane Levy is calling you a boy toy because you forgot to mention that you went to the Yankee Red Sox game and you forgot to plug her book. Make me commissioner. I know what's wrong with baseball and how to fix it. Did she demand that the boy toy call her commission?
Dan Le Batard
No. But she did demand that I plug this book for everyone, which I am doing right now. So there was a means to an end, huh? Seemingly. No. I mean, look, I already bought the book myself. I also bought her Sandy Koufax book because I'm fascinated by Koufax and she wrote the book on Sandy Koufax. But I know we've like had a lot of fun, the most fun experience to be at that baseball game for what ended up being a historic ninth inning. It wasn't the way I think anybody in that stadium really wanted it to go. But to be there for the Yankees to load the bases and ultimately not come through. Hanging out with Brian Ross like a legendary journalist, investigative journalist from NBC News and ABC News, David Brother Levy, like, it was it. It was really like a remarkable experience. What were any like Lulls in conversation. Was it constant chatter? Yeah, we were just talking about. We ended up in conversations about like middle relievers developing new pitches as Luke Weaver came in and struggled and we talked about, you know, which pitches that we were seeing that we think maybe would be challenged in the future. Like it was a baseball fans baseball conversation.
Billy Gil
What are you laughing about?
Dan Le Batard
I was eating it up.
Billy Gil
What are you laughing about? What are you guys doing?
Dan Le Batard
I can't repeat what what was just said to me.
Greg Cody
If it's. Again, if it's a conversation about middle relievers, I want nothing to do with it. I'm sorry, I'm confused.
Dan Le Batard
So she invited you under the condition of like plug my book? Well, no, not plug the book. No, that wasn't why I was invited. At the end of our conversation, it was Jesus Christ. Against the Miami Heat. Buy. Make me commissioner. Buy the book. Go buy it. It's great. Jane is great. I love her. Did you call her today? Did she call you? Like what's the. Texted her this morning. Oh, you didn't bother waiting a day. Wait two days. No, my gosh.
Billy Gil
Right away before we get to against the spread. Let's play, please. The useless sound montage. We have waited too.
Dan Le Batard
Man.
Billy Gil
It's an honor to represent American football here in Dublin.
Greg Cody
Beautiful day in western New York.
Dan Le Batard
Glory to God for the weather, first and foremost. All glory belongs to God. My Lord and savior, Jesus Christ. Just want to thank him for this victory for us keeping us safe for the most part. Winner of these games when we play them usually starts out fast.
Juju
We started out fast in the past, they started out fast today.
Dan Le Batard
Not big deal, you know, just keep that between us. Good to get a win. Proud of the team, Never ever give up. My gut was probably wrong a lot of the night. No, it's just a football game. I think that's just the best way to describe it in the grand scheme of things. Man, you better be careful grading wins. Those critical variables in football, you know, generally they're.
Juju
It's not. They're under emphasized.
Billy Gil
Great to get Chris back. His aunt died and it was good to get him back here.
Dan Le Batard
I don't think you should be that sensitive about it. But is what it is. Not too worried about it now. I'm going to keep that between us. You know, it's a tie and I really don't know what to say about that. The game and the work that you put into the game. Never lie to you. Kudos to TA and company but also kudos to the men. Trico 1 and L the standards are the standards. The identity is the identity, and it doesn't change for anybody. That's the only thing you can do when you're in a spot like this is just keep coming out, keep swinging. We got to learn how to win. You know, this is year one of our program.
Greg Cody
You can't fight and get behind the.
Dan Le Batard
Eight ball against good teams and expect to win. We work on it.
Billy Gil
We get better. Get back to work and, and regroup.
Dan Le Batard
Rethink, not blink when a lot of.
Juju
People are telling them to blink.
Dan Le Batard
Good things happen, you know, to those who just stay consistent and, and stay ready. You got to feel the taste of it. Yeah. You just hope for there's no mechanical.
Billy Gil
Problems to slow the plane down from taking off.
Dan Le Batard
When you score zero points, it's not good enough. Look, it's good to get away.
Billy Gil
I'm happy for our players.
Dan Le Batard
I'm happy for our coaches.
Juju
They put a lot of time and.
Billy Gil
Effort and energy into us.
Dan Le Batard
I can just open my eyes and see an entire team and stadium and.
Juju
Organization that doesn't have time for my feelings.
Dan Le Batard
Component of it being a great trip is doing the job. And thankfully we were able to do that. Nope, just going to keep that between us right now. That's it. Coach Parcells used to put the mousetraps up everywhere you'd come in and the next day if he thought it was one of those games and there'd be thousands of them. There's nobody that puts more, more, more pressure and eats more frustration than I do on where we're at. We're in the ultimate parity league, and I think that's why we have such a good relationship with our fans, man. And, and we enjoy putting our talents.
Billy Gil
And skills on display for him. But miss a 56 yarder, but that's 56 yards, you know, so we've gotten spoiled.
Dan Le Batard
The complimentary football today showed up, obviously making plays in three phases. It doesn't take much. You just tell them what's on your mind and they already know what's up. He's been a stud, Nick. I mean, the guy, he's a grown man. I know what you're doing there, Paul.
Billy Gil
I know what you're doing.
Dan Le Batard
And I'm not going to answer that right now.
Billy Gil
Put it on the poll, please. Juju. Does anyone eat more frustration than Brian Callahan?
Dan Le Batard
I don't believe Dan Campbell when he says he had a coach put thousands of mousetraps around the locker room before a trap game. I don't believe that thousands of mousetraps. I Think parcels was walking around with a box full of mousetraps.
Juju
Thousands.
Dan Le Batard
Four big games and laying them out. I don't understand Schadenheimer saying he's got to learn. They have to learn how to win. Has no one on the team ever won a football game?
Greg Cody
Dave Wonstadt used to use lobster traps more impressive than mousetraps.
Billy Gil
Yeah, that's how Wonstead evolved. Like, instead of just copycatting or stealing the idea of mousetraps, I'm gonna do it South Florida style. I'm gonna see if Jimmy can lend me some of his lobster traps. Let's do against the spread, get to the polls and get to juju's analysis. Withering criticism of my performance on today's show.
Greg Cody
Against the spread. Against the.
Dan Le Batard
Against the spread. Billy kicks off. Wait. First against the spread is brought to you by DraftKings. DraftKings. The crown is yours now. Go ahead. All right, I'm looking at the NFL slate this week and there's. There's one game out there. This Dolphins versus the Panthers. Dolphins on the road favored by one and a half points. It's juicy, but I'm not gonna go with that game. Stay away from that game. Glad you mentioned it. I'm gonna go with the Giants plus two and a half at the Saints. The Saints, they played the Bills close, but they're. They're not a good team. The Giants, they beat the Chargers. Who we thought were a good team. Jackson Dart. I mean, is this a revelation? I don't know. I just have a feeling about this Giants team. So I'm going to take the Giants plus two and a half against the New Orleans.
Billy Gil
Truly crappy analysis. You have a feeling? Excellent.
Dan Le Batard
Greg Cody, what's pick?
Greg Cody
Miami Hurricanes -4 and a half in tally. Yes, please. I am all in on the Canes. Their past defense is much, much better equipped than last season to stop the Seminoles. I like Miami by at least a touchdown.
Billy Gil
Homer Cody thinks it's going to be a blowout. Homer Cody thinks the UM is going to drag FSU covering the game.
Greg Cody
At least a touchdown. Yes, I will be writing off that game.
Dan Le Batard
You're making the drive.
Greg Cody
No, I am not.
Dan Le Batard
Can you be at home?
Billy Gil
You're doing it for.
Dan Le Batard
You're covering.
Greg Cody
I'm. I'm running because. Because of the. The government shutdown. There's still no roads or highways.
Dan Le Batard
You thought he was herby and he had to sit it out.
Billy Gil
Why are you such a homer? Do you ever pick against the local teams? Like ever?
Dan Le Batard
I don't.
Greg Cody
I don't Have I picked the Dolphins to lose to the.
Dan Le Batard
He thought the Marlins would be bad this year.
Billy Gil
Well, you picked the Dolphins to lose to the Bills when they were at 12 and a half point under, right?
Greg Cody
I did pick them to cover, which they did. Thank you.
Billy Gil
I don.
Dan Le Batard
Is it a homer pick?
Greg Cody
Yeah, against the spread, I picked him to cover.
Billy Gil
Juju, what do you have for us today before we get to the polls here? What did you think of today's show? Where was I? Especially crappy today.
Juju
The first spot. You was crappy. I pulled teeth and nails every show trying to get y' all to talk to w something awesome happens in the wood. Let's bring in Jessica to talk about it. Salute to Jessica. She's an expert also, but I would love to be in those conversations. It's my life over here.
Billy Gil
It's right here and it's there.
Dan Le Batard
It's right here.
Billy Gil
It's.
Dan Le Batard
We're here.
Juju
Don't go there.
Dan Le Batard
We're right here.
Billy Gil
We're here right now. Tell us what you thought about Nafisa Collier, what she had to say, and also tell us what you think about these WNBA Finals. I should tell people Alley Oopa is something he's doing with Trista. They've got great chemistry and their coverage of the league is exceptional. So tell us what you got.
Juju
N I, I, I care about the show and I. I understand the fans of the show have an attention span for the W. And we rolled out the red carpet for my sister Jessica. We got into it. So all I would say is salute to head coach Stephanie White of the Indiana Fever. Natasha Howard, Aaliyah Boston Odyssey Sims, Kelsey Mitchell, Lexi Hall, Brianna Turner. The whole squad shape petty. They show so much resilience going up against that Aces team. Short. Nothing but applause for that team. I hope they keep the coach because that would be an abomination to get rid of her after this performance. And yeah, the final should be awesome. I told you, midway through the season, whenever Asia got her hand hurt, you asked me, are the Aces in trouble? I told you. But they gonna be all right. And guess what? They all right. You feel me?
Billy Gil
You're wearing the Lamar Jackson gear. What did you think? We talked a lot. Lamar Jackson today. What were your thoughts there?
Juju
Oh, yeah. I think that y' all was spot on and Nick was spot on and Mike was spot on. At first, it was so much coming from that side. You know, as a black man, you can't help but see and feel that side that there has been an overcorrection on my brother. My Brother got to win some of these big games, man. Like so that that fumble in in Buffalo last last year that it was snowing and it was rough conditions but at the same time you out there, you got to get it done. So you spot on with Lamar, also with the Chiefs. When it comes to the Chiefs beating these teams, I think that the Buffalo Bills, my, my team, I think our defense is so ass that it is way it's above and beyond. Like y' all said, when Josh makes it, he makes it because he has to put the Superman cape on. They lose by one point because the defense can't stop a cold. Like last year, Patrick Mahomes was getting rid of that ball to Elam side instantly. We traded Elam to the Cowboys and now everybody wonder what's wrong with the Cowboys defense. It's Kyre Elam. Back to you.
Billy Gil
Okay, that's all, that's all that's wrong with the Cowboys. Def. Comments do you have any updates for us here on Greg Cody and his abominable position of We've got too many statues in sports.
Juju
Oh yeah, this isn't a sports statue, but I gotta ask my brother his opinion on this statue. They recently unveiled a Tina Turner statue, my brother.
Dan Le Batard
Oh, it's rough.
Juju
It is rough.
Greg Cody
Really? I haven't seen it.
Dan Le Batard
It's rough.
Juju
Oh my God. Video team, if you got it, do my boy a favor and show it to him. But yeah, I gotta ask, is Tina Turner worth the statue in your opinion, Greg?
Greg Cody
Yes. Yes. If it's a music statue, I'm gonna put.
Juju
Oh my goodness.
Dan Le Batard
It's really rough.
Greg Cody
Yeah, yeah, I noticed. I don't see Ike. I don't see Ike anywhere there, which is probably just as well.
Billy Gil
Why would we want Ike there? What is that?
Dan Le Batard
I feel like, what do you need there for?
Greg Cody
I can Tina Turner wait.
Dan Le Batard
He was not a nice man rolling down the river.
Greg Cody
That's why I'm making a joke about. It's just as well that he's not there.
Dan Le Batard
It's not a laughing matter, Greg.
Greg Cody
I know. It really isn't. That's too much hair. She had a lot of hair, but that's over the top, literally and figuratively.
Dan Le Batard
She actually didn't have a lot of hair.
Greg Cody
Thank you.
Juju
Real ones? No. Speaking of that, I gotta ask my brother Mike. Did you see Tony Romo over the weekend?
Dan Le Batard
Yeah, dude, what's going on? And also some other stuff going on. More the Face for me.
Juju
Oh, my goodness. I instantly thought of Mike. I'm like, I gotta show this to Mike because He knows what's going on here.
Billy Gil
Mike, are you making a ruling as the. As the world's certainly America's foremost authority sports expert on calling people out when they're doing things with their face, hair, teeth. That is false postito.
Dan Le Batard
Yeah.
Billy Gil
What. What are you ruling here?
Dan Le Batard
Danny went for the hat trick. He did stuff with a hair, face and teeth.
Greg Cody
Teeth, Damn.
Juju
It's giving hair, face, ass.
Dan Le Batard
Yeah, and also makeup on the hands, too.
Juju
Damn.
Billy Gil
It is the back of the hands. He does have something on the back of the hands there as well. Tony Romo.
Dan Le Batard
There's nothing wrong with that.
Juju
Also, Dan, this is the only correction I have for you from the show today. His mama called him Castellanos. I'm gonna call him Castellanos.
Billy Gil
I don't know. I don't think his mother does call him. I don't think his mother does call him Castellanos.
Dan Le Batard
Let's get her. No, he says this is a Matt Diaz situation where he is like, it's Diaz. I'm like, no, brother, it ain't. You'll find out she's wrong, too.
Billy Gil
No, it's. I don't know that his mother calls him Castellanos. I think he's been Americanized and he insists on making it Castellanos. I think she calls him Castellanos.
Greg Cody
Why isn't it his choice?
Dan Le Batard
Why did you call him by his first name?
Billy Gil
Yeah, because the double L, you have to roll it if you're Hispanic.
Greg Cody
That's why if I want to pronounce my name. Greg Cox. I'm Greg.
Dan Le Batard
Your name actually is pronounced Cote, but you say Cody.
Greg Cody
I know. So it's Cody. Who owns my name?
Juju
Julio Jones.
Greg Cody
I own my name.
Billy Gil
I'm still reeling from your need to throw Ike Turner into a weird Tina Turner statue situation.
Dan Le Batard
He said it was glad that Ike wasn't there. Yeah, he did.
Greg Cody
Thank you, Billy.
Dan Le Batard
This could also be a Cameron Ward situation, in which. Look, there's only one Castellanos in sports, and we don't want our name associated with that.
Billy Gil
The boy toy. The boy toy over there is overcorrecting now because doing promo, Jane Levy wants her book sold, and the boy toy does what he's told.
Dan Le Batard
Please buy this book because Jane is wonderful and invited me to a baseball game under no false pretenses. Why is my dad holding up his book?
Greg Cody
I mean, we're all promoting books here all of a sudden.
Billy Gil
Let's update the polls at LeBatard show. What do you have today? Juju?
Juju
Oh, my goodness. Do you trust your airline pilot list? If he or she talks with a lisp. Come on, man. Lisp lives matter. 56% of the audience says yes. They trust them. Less.
Dan Le Batard
People are lying. They feel bad. That's crazy. On your left, you'll see the Grand Canyon.
Juju
Also, I'm reminded there was nothing more on Brand for Zaslo today for him to not understand how oil and money works. Bravo, brother.
Billy Gil
You should have heard during the break. Zaz was in here wondering if the Saudis just have a bank account. That's just endless numbers coaching symposium there.
Dan Le Batard
I mean, you're telling me the Saudis, they never call their accountant to make sure they can afford it.
Greg Cody
All of a sudden there's a sheik going, we're overdrawn. We gotta withdraw that offer to Brady.
Juju
Do you crush quesadillas? 90% of the audience says yes, you do. And the last poll. Should we stop having sporting events in long island? Sorry, guys. 81% of the audience says yes, we should. And those are your polls.
Billy Gil
Jeremy, did you find out for me the question I was asking about how the results came back on the poll from yesterday?
Dan Le Batard
Yes. 367% of the audience voted yes. What was the question you had asked the 17 to 3? Is it insurmountable for Penn State to overcome a 17? 3 since 19? Whatever. Yeah, 800% of the audience. That joke would have hit harder if you read it for. If he had just let the joke sit for the second time. This show, the AI thing. Yeah. I was trying.
Billy Gil
I work hard.
Dan Le Batard
I flew in. I Woke up at 4am to be back. In our defense, we didn't want you here.
Billy Gil
Why do I.
Dan Le Batard
All right, we didn't ask for this either.
Billy Gil
She wore your ass out, man. You were useless today.
Dan Le Batard
Amen, Dan.
Date: October 1, 2025
Hosts: Dan Le Batard, Stugotz
Guest(s): JuJu Gotti, Billy Gil, Greg Cody
Broadcasting from the Elser Hotel in Downtown Miami, Dan, Stugotz, and the crew deliver their signature blend of sports analysis, irreverent banter, and cultural commentary. In this postgame episode, they cover the latest NFL and WNBA developments, debate the nuances of pronunciation and statue legitimacy, and check in with JuJu Gotti on everything from the Buffalo Bills’ defensive woes to Tony Romo's evolving on-air appearance. The show is packed with running jokes, sharp asides, and spirited audience polls, all in the unfiltered Le Batard Show style.
The crew launches into their trademark “useless sound montage,” featuring a rapid-fire string of football-isms, coachspeak, and devout postgame clichés from recent pressers.
The crew riffs on Dan Campbell’s story about thousands of mousetraps in the locker room, expressing skepticism.
Dan on the uselessness of NFL talk:
“Not big deal, you know, just keep that between us. Good to get a win. Proud of the team. Never ever give up. My gut was probably wrong a lot of the night. No, it's just a football game. I think that's just the best way to describe it in the grand scheme of things.” [04:19]
JuJu pushing for WNBA coverage:
“It's my life over here.” [09:53]
On Tony Romo’s transformation:
“Danny went for the hat trick. He did stuff with a hair, face and teeth.” – Dan Le Batard [14:28]
“It’s giving hair, face, ass.” – JuJu Gotti [14:34]
Greg Cody claims artistic license:
“I own my name.” [15:39]
The episode maintains the Le Batard Show’s loose, satirical, and highly improvisational style. Discussions quickly veer from serious sports insights to absurdist humor, inside jokes, and playful mockery.
Final Note:
This postgame show is a classic Dan Le Batard blend of sports, culture, and comedy—punctuated by JuJu Gotti’s impassioned interjections and the crew’s relentless self-awareness. Even the deepest sports debates end with a wisecrack or poll, making for a brisk, engaging listen.
