Fun show today. Football's back. We have juju coming up here in a second. But first, the Boost Mobile boldest take presented by Boost Mobile, the newest 5G network in the country. The fans have been bringing it. Let's see what they got this week.
Juju Smith-Schuster
The best players in NFL have the worst names. Jeremy Tache looks like the American Idol contestant that immediately gets a no from all three judges. Took a look at the stats today. I'm 042. Coach even tried to draw me a play, something new, but I was blocked by Lafrence. Lafrence. Lafrence la France. It's true. After taxes, $188 million is not enough to move to Green Bay. Ham is basically diet bacon. Hey, it's Jared. I think you could combine the Cowboys, the J and the Browns into one super team and they'd still miss the playoffs. John Isner does not give two shit that Zaslow's movie theater sells pickles.
Dan Le Batard
I disagree with that. I think if you combine the Browns, the Jets and the Cowboys, you'd have a damn good team.
Greg Cody
Put it on the poll at Lebartard show is ham diet bacon. Greg Cody. The Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody has another podcast drop that was on Monday. Bigger and better than anything that Pablo Torre is going to drop tomorrow. What? What do people need to know about the Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody podcast that just dropped?
Christopher
Yeah, I would mention three things. Number one, you come live inside the PFPI Fantasy draft. It's a Greg Cody show exclusive. No other podcast had a camera in the PFPI Fantasy draft. So you get to see that. You get.
Juju
We.
Christopher
We talked to a fantasy football expert who grades my draft versus Christopher's draft. And also we revisit the big laptop incident last year. Last week on the show here that created such a yelling match between Christopher and I and I expected it to be conciliatory with both of us apologizing to each other. Didn't happen.
Mike
Wow. Why would someone else have a camera in your fantasy football war room?
Christopher
It's a major annual event. Yeah, and so There were media inquiries.
Zaslow
Why did his parents have sex with him under a bed?
Christopher
That's a good plan. I was wondering that myself. But we denied other media inquiries because we wanted it for the Greg Cody show exclusively. You know, you can understand that.
Dan Le Batard
Had sex with him under the bed.
Zaslow
There needed to be a comma.
Christopher
Yeah, I think there was weird wording.
Greg Cody
No, it should. It's. It should have. It should have.
Dan Le Batard
I'm not going to lie. When I was, like, putting it all together, I heard it and I'm just like, is this worth calling my dad to, like, jump on zoom?
Juju
Yeah.
Dan Le Batard
I was just like, yeah, you know what? It's fine.
Zaslow
There's a standard.
Dan Le Batard
In my defense, you didn't notice it till, like, the third time it was said.
Zaslow
Yeah, it sounds like his parents are having sex with him under the bed.
Greg Cody
It actually sounded before that because the under the bed didn't come until later. It sounded like the winner was them just having sex with me.
Zaslow
Well, neither did your dad.
Greg Cody
And then it said under the bed.
Christopher
Who has sex under a bed?
Juju
Steve Martin.
Christopher
Is that right?
Greg Cody
It's.
Dan Le Batard
It's Tuesday.
Zaslow
Do you have it? Back in my day.
Greg Cody
Juju. Lee Corso. What? We got it right. We got the ending right. Unbelievable that we allowed ourselves in the middle of a stadium full of people on live television to get one ending right. Ozzy Osbourne got one ending right, and Lee Corso gets another ending right.
Mike
They did a really good job because it wasn't like this whole drawn out, dramatic over emotional thing. They were just able to do the show and have the really fun moment, the end. And I think what contributes that was they. They had that special that they did at the end of last week where that was all the emotion. Everyone's crying and seeing how much they love Lee, I thought they did it. They did a really good job.
Dan Le Batard
My only critique was that they did it. They wanted the crowd to hear it. So there was kind of like an echo, like at the moment when Herbie was doing his toss to. It was a slight echo because it's.
Greg Cody
Hard to do in front of 90,000 people live like that. It's so hard, and it's so. It's so difficult when you can see that they're trying to, like, sort of hold a grandfather by the elbows to make sure that he gets to the end. He's in front of 90,000 people. You want a stadium to hear him just right. It's a little bit hard. I understand that. That's the ask. You don't want the moment to Be perfect.
Dan Le Batard
I want it to be fully clean on TV. And they sacrificed like 5% of the it being clean on TV for the people in the stadium to hear it.
Jordan
Did you guys see Rinaldi on Big Noon did a tribute to him with the Bear. Yeah, they had like a whole thing where it was him talking about Lee Corso and how much he meant to game day and all this stuff. Like Big Noon, their competitor, they stopped. They stopped multiple times. They did a tribute to him. They all put on headgear at one.
Zaslow
Point in time and then they simulcast the. The headgear pick, which was.
Dan Le Batard
Which is our idea that they took.
Zaslow
They should have though.
Dan Le Batard
I'm imagining they heard it and they were like, hey, I heard a good idea.
Jordan
I don't think so.
Dan Le Batard
We should probably do this.
Zaslow
Yeah, but they didn't position as like, I heard a good idea. Some guy just ran with and said, hey, this is my idea.
Dan Le Batard
That's what Some guy heard our show and then went to guys, I thought.
Greg Cody
It was a good idea and was surprised that they did it. Juju, what were the things that stood out for you about Corso?
Juju
Yeah, it was impressive that they were cutting onions in front of 90,000 people the entire time. Because I'm watching this show, I'm like, lord, like, what's happening? I'm a ho. I'm a gangster. Like, it's like soldiers. Great to see a proper send off from a legend. And the legend was still legendary with his last picks went perfect. Tennessee, Florida State, South Carolina, Miami, lsu, Ohio State. Man, hats off to the legend. What a wonderful career.
Greg Cody
And all his teams that he played for and coached also won. Did you have any opinions on any of the subject matter from today's show and some of the stuff we missed? For example, surely you have opinions on Amin Alhassan saying that the stealing the hat from a kid is just informing children what capitalism really looks like so they can learn it early in life.
Juju
Bruh. That is one of the craziest scenes. His response to the Millionaire. His response made it even wackier. Here's his response. If this is his response, I know how the Internet works these days. We might need to play the reckless speculation because I'm not 100% sure he responded this way, but if so, he's the most, most hilarious man on earth. Time to throw away the journalistic credibility and get reckless.
Christopher
Here is something we like to call reckless speculation.
Greg Cody
Zaz, quit making. Quit, quit, quit. You got to tell him he's good, you're good, pay attention. What Are you doing?
Mike
You know what I'm doing?
Greg Cody
I'm.
Mike
I'm trying to see when the new rankings are coming out. Trying to see where the games are.
Dan Le Batard
Keep refreshing back here.
Jordan
Yeah, me and Mike were doing our own AP rankings a couple minutes ago.
Juju
Forgiven. He says the recent. So, I'm sorry. I was gonna read it like he said it. The recent incident at the tennis match has called disproportionate online uproar. It's all about the famous hat, of course. Yes, I took it. Yes, I did it quickly. But as I've always said, life is first come, first serve. What are you doing? And he's made some threats as well, to his constituent. Whatever that's called. Constituency.
Zaslow
All right.
Greg Cody
Constituency. He's made some threats. So he's doubling down on taking the hat.
Christopher
That's crazy.
Juju
Yes, sir. He's doubling down, and that's crazy. The same way it was crazy last night. I don't know if y' all touched this with Jordan was actually on the sideline with Bill for a little spell. That is absolute nuts behavior from Jordan and Bill. Why are you over there, sis? Get back up there in the stands. Salute to you, but that's a bad look after that loss.
Greg Cody
Speaking of bad looks, what do you think of this here Alabama fan in the middle finger? We've got an Alabama. I don't know if this is exactly the way to cover college football, but we're covering the hell out of college football without talking about the US Open. What's happening here with this Alabama fan, man? This was you guys. Which one? Put it on the poll, Juju, so I can get to it tomorrow at Le Batard show. Which tears did you enjoy more, Alabama's or Bill Belichick's? Because I thought. Thought we were a little bit done with Alabama tears. Like I thought we. We already knew that was all over, didn't we?
Juju
No, I mean, I didn't think so. Also, side note, Castellanos, I think we finally found middle ground, like literal middle ground. This is a kid from Miami, Florida, went to Jeremy's UCF and went to the Ware County High School. Oh, my goodness. Where the kid himself went to high school. If you didn't know my high school, the most country is high school in the world. I think we found somebody to root for, even though he's with the rival right now in the acc. Castellanos. Oh, brilliant. But I think that Alabama fan has never looked more handsome in his entire life. What a shot. If you're going to lose, go out With a barrel. And he definitely did that.
Greg Cody
Is. Is Juju pronouncing that name correctly? Because I've always pronounced it Castellanos. When I.
Zaslow
When I see it, he is pronouncing it the way that Castellanos wants it being pronounced.
Mike
Oh, really?
Zaslow
Yeah. Or not. Castellanos is actually pronouncing it. All right. That's really not.
Greg Cody
No, I was just curious. So am I wrong when I call him Castellanos?
Zaslow
Yes, because he wants to be called Castellanos.
Greg Cody
Okay. I'm going to have to do better.
Mike
I think he might be wrong.
Greg Cody
You think he might be wrong?
Juju Smith-Schuster
Yeah.
Christopher
Isn't it his choice?
Mike
Well, I mean, if I all of a sudden showed up today and said, you know, my name is now Zeus Low. No, that's wrong.
Dan Le Batard
Our name is supposed to be Cote.
Zaslow
I don't know how you Dolphin fans do it. You got Hn and Sir Tan just doing whatever the hell they want.
Juju
Speaking of wrong, the entire world got it wrong, including me. When we saw Devin Hester Jr. Running back a punt return, I was like, boy, I am old. It is over for me. But he is not related to the Devin Hester in any shape, form, or fashion.
Dan Le Batard
I tried to explain that to my friends. We were doing a fantasy draft that night, and I was like, yeah, so Devin Hester Jr. Returned a kick for a touchdown. Now explain it to me.
Juju
Oh, wow, how cool.
Dan Le Batard
Mike, he's not Devin Hester Jr. He's just Devin Hester Jr. Oh, I get it now.
Jordan
Different middle names.
Juju
Also, Hunter Renfro, in the adorable moment this this week, he says that he missed over 10 calls from the Panthers brass Dave Canales and Dan Morgan because his daughter was playing Bluey and watching Bluey, and she kept ignoring the calls, which made me want to ask the fathers in here, what'? Something adorable yet seriously frustrating that your daughters have done. If you can think of anything.
Dan Le Batard
This K Pop movie just obsessed my. My whole life. I can't get in.
Zaslow
You too, dude, it's got some bangers.
Dan Le Batard
I mean, it's got a couple bangers, but it's. I've heard it so many times. I'm done with it. I'm just done.
Greg Cody
They figured out how to make music that addicts the children.
Dan Le Batard
It gets the moms, too.
Zaslow
It does.
Dan Le Batard
K Pop moms love music.
Zaslow
Solid genre.
Mike
It's another thing they love to tell you.
Juju
What?
Greg Cody
Oh, not again. At Levitar Show. At Levitard show on the polls. What do you have for us on poll updates?
Juju
Juju, have you ever been inside your Neighbor's master bedroom. 83% of the audience says, no, they have not.
Mike
Yo, gotta work. How else am I gonna make that money?
Dan Le Batard
Definitely right.
Juju
Gotta want to earn.
Greg Cody
Yeah.
Juju
Do you? Well said. Do you know what a plain stick is? 84 of the audience says, no, they do not.
Juju Smith-Schuster
What?
Greg Cody
Dunkin Donuts plain stick. They do not know. So describe. Now you've got to tell the audience what it is. A plain stick is a donut that is the plainest of the donuts.
Mike
Yeah, it's a plain stick.
Christopher
Sounds like my only toy is a child.
Jordan
I can't even find it on their menu.
Mike
You know what? I will stop at Dunkin' Donuts tomorrow morning on the way in. I will buy a plane stick.
Dan Le Batard
I don't bring a bunch in.
Juju Smith-Schuster
Let's go.
Greg Cody
That was a great joke by Greg Cody. His original toy was indeed a plain stick. Like he. No before toy.
Juju Smith-Schuster
He's not.
Greg Cody
Before toys were invented, Greg Cody wanted to play. And what did he play with? A plain stick.
Christopher
That and kicking a rock.
Greg Cody
There were no toys. Toys had not been invented yet, so.
Juju Smith-Schuster
All that was available.
Dan Le Batard
They didn't have a slinky.
Juju Smith-Schuster
Nothing.
Greg Cody
No, there was nothing.
Juju Smith-Schuster
It.
Christopher
Nothing.
Greg Cody
Keep going, Juju.
Juju
Speaking of playstyle, I just want to throw a random salute and a welcome back Thanasis antetokounmpo to the NBA. Come on, man. Back on the team with his big brother. I love it. Our lemonade stands. A grift by the parents. 82% of the audience says, yes, it is a whopping 35 bucks to steal.
Greg Cody
Money for dinner that doesn't pay for dinner anymore. Six avocados.
Juju
Is Bill Belichick's face stupider? Now that he has took that loss? 194 of the audience says, yes, it is. Does Bill Belichick enjoy Bill Belichick's suffering more than anyone? 75% of the audience says yes.
Greg Cody
I know, Chris. You don't think it's true, but he does love to be miserable. Like, you know, people like this. Kornheisers like this. I don't know many like this, but Belichick probably enjoys misery.
Christopher
Yeah, it looks weird when he smiles. It's, like, creepy.
Juju
Also creepy. The Oregon duck lost his head the other day. Neither here nor there. Get well soon. Last poll. Should there be raisins in the potato salad? The potato salad. 90. 96% of the audience says, no, there should not be. And those are your polls.
Greg Cody
Before we get to Jeremy, who's got a song about me not apologizing to Diana Rossini? Do you have any thoughts, Juju? We did not cover tennis at all today. We did not cover the U.S. open. What did you think of all the things that happened there?
Juju
Oh, yeah. Taylor Townsend, take a bow for a great, you know what I mean, performance and how she responded last year, last week to controversy, even though she's out now. But Naomi Osaka yesterday in straight sets against Coco Golf might have got her swag back on national television. Like all the stuff that she's gone through, mental health wise, having a daughter, it's just very commendable to see her come back in such great fashion. So I know Coco gonna be back. She's playing with the new. A new serve, trying it out right now. So she gonna be good. But it's definitely good to see Naomi Osaka back on the right path.
Greg Cody
Did you refresh it? Where are the Hurricanes ranked? Because I think Notre Dame's not going to drop. I think they're going to stay exactly where they are.
Dan Le Batard
No way.
Mike
It hasn't updated yet.
Zaslow
So mad just now.
Greg Cody
Kidding.
Juju Smith-Schuster
So mad.
Greg Cody
Four top 10 teams lost. It would be funny if Notre Dame just stayed right where they were. Just kept it right where. You better be kidding, Juju. See you guys got in range. As if we're not.
Zaslow
I don't like getting my chain jerked.
Greg Cody
Did you refresh it?
Juju Smith-Schuster
What did you say?
Mike
It hasn't updated yet.
Zaslow
All right.
Greg Cody
Because you care what the AP says after week one. The three of you are refreshing things.
Zaslow
Yeah.
Juju Smith-Schuster
Yeah.
Dan Le Batard
What do you care about the coach's poll?
Mike
Better get some respect.
Greg Cody
I care about not apologizing.
Jordan
What's the most important poll until December when it's completely meaningless?
Greg Cody
Yes. Okay. Very good. Let's play Jeremy's song. Thank you, Juju. Appreciate the time, sir.
Juju
Yes, sir. Thank you.
Diana Rossini
Hey, it's Diana Rossini. And Dan's trying to say he's sorry, but he said, my bad. You feel that way. She was doing a real job. No, it isn't just a high. We all wanted to know where feelings play. Telling her she's all alone, condescending toward the job she owns. Even says the life she chose is so insane. But Greg Cody has advice. He knows how to make things right. And he says it only takes this one quick phrase. You may be right. Or if you say so, and you won't have to actually say sorry no more apologize. Say, you never know, but go. He's grown. It's always says, you may be right.
Broadcast live from the Elser Hotel in Downtown Miami, this episode of the Postgame Show features Dan Le Batard, Stugotz, and the usual cast, with guest JuJu Gotti (JuJu Smith-Schuster). The panel delivers their trademark blend of sharp sports chatter, offbeat pop-culture takes, and inside jokes, anchored this week by vibrant discussions about the NFL’s quirky names, college football’s emotional moments, miscommunications, viral sports moments, and some delightfully random banter.
Boldest Take Segment
JuJu Gotti delivers rapid-fire, comedic hot takes spanning the NFL, sports pop culture, and media personalities:
Panel Banter and Reactions
Plugging Greg’s Podcast
Christopher details the latest “Greg Cody Show,” highlighting behind-the-scenes access to the PFPI Fantasy Draft, draft grade breakdowns, and revisiting the infamous “big laptop incident.”
Comedic Miscommunication
A discussion breaks out over awkward phrasing regarding Christopher's parents and “having sex with him under the bed,” devolving into absurd, slightly uncomfortable wordplay and jokes about the phrasing (03:01–03:51).
This episode highlights the show’s knack for turning sports talk into a communal comedy jam, mixing deep affection for legends like Lee Corso with the kind of nonsense (poll questions about ham and childhood toys) that keeps the loyal audience engaged. Regular moments of meta-awareness, playful antagonism, and cultural asides (K Pop, tennis, donut shapes) make for trademark Le Batard content—fun, fast, and unpredictable.
The recurring theme: sports connect us through both seriousness (Corso tributes, Osaka’s resilience) and silliness (awkward wordplay, Dunkin Donuts debates), and the Le Batard crew covers it all with giddy irreverence and heart.
