Main Theme & Purpose

This episode of "The Big Suey" is built around the 2025 SUI Awards—specifically the "Best Revelation" category. The show is a joyful, chaotic celebration of the bizarre, personal, and often hilarious admissions that have surfaced on the Le Batard show over the past year. Through a steady stream of banter, storytelling, inside jokes, and classic interruptions, Dan, Stugotz, and the crew create a patchwork of revelations—ranging from the absurd to the oddly touching—with a side helping of sports media talk, pop culture references, and trademark irreverence.

For the Uninitiated Listener

If you haven’t heard the episode, expect:

• An uproarious, deeply candid, and sometimes absurd set of confessions and anecdotes from a group with unmatched rapport
• A unique look at how personal quirks and private failings are celebrated as badge-of-honor content for the show’s die-hards
• Reflections on the rapidly changing world of sports broadcasting, media culture, and generational divides

This episode is a love letter to radical candor, the strange and wonderful chemistry of the Le Batard crew, and the comfort of shared weirdness.

[Dan LeBatard]

Welcome to the Big Sui presented by DraftKings. Why are you listening to this show, the podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan LeBatard podcast? I'm sorry, I'm not going to apologize for that. In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries that if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys. I've done it. And now here's the marching men to Nowhere Fat Face and the Habitual Liar.

[David Sampson]

This episode is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings. The Crown is yours.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well done. Again, you have become a real broadcast professional when you do choose to speak into the microphone.

[David Sampson]

Thank you very much.

[Dan LeBatard]

The Giants have released Tommy DeVito. Sad day for the show. Yeah, sad day for his agent. Also, I saw a quote here from Arch Manning that is given the size of the game that Arch Manning is about to play and I don't know, in my recollection off the Top of my head, a more anticipated, longer anticipated starting of a college football season prodigy than what archmanning is presently headed into. And I don't know if you saw this. He gave exactly the quote that you want to hear if you're a Texas fan. He actually said before this game, which I believe to be one of the most pressurized games a quarterback has ever. I'm going to call it debuted with. Even though he's played before, but this is his coming out party. This is what is Eli Manning and Peyton Manning's nephew. What is he as a quarterback. The quote is perfect and it's better than any quote that I've ever heard from Peyton or Eli, other than when Peyton called Mike Vanderjagt that idiot kicker during the Pro bowl, the last Pro Bowl I watched. Here is the quote from Arch Manning. The targets not on our back. We have a red dot on everyone else. Wow, that's a good quote.

[Billy Gil]

Well, Dan, you know that Arch Manning has motion, right?

[Dan LeBatard]

Did you know that? Explain motions. You don't.

[Billy Gil]

Greg, explain. He's hoping that this isn't a young person.

[Greg Cody]

No, it is.

[Billy Gil]

It is a young person.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's why. Okay. Motion means like he's with it.

[Billy Gil]

He's cool. He's. He gets it.

[Dan LeBatard]

He's hit.

[Billy Gil]

He's locking. To him, it's stand on business.

[David Sampson]

Yes. No, no, I get another. You explain it. It's a good quote. It's a good quote.

[Chris Cody]

Your day.

[David Sampson]

It's the best quote ever.

[Chris Cody]

In your day, it would have been groovy. Yeah, he's groovy.

[David Sampson]

That's. He's happening.

[Chris Cody]

Happening.

[David Sampson]

Yeah, he's happening.

[Dan LeBatard]

So we emerge from pipe down and. And you're off your rocker to groovy and happening. As we continue to grab all the kids on YouTube.

[Billy Gil]

We get the motion.

[Dan LeBatard]

Then put it on the poll at Lebatard show. Which is the older expression. Off your rocker or pipe down. We have to get to the suis here. We've got among the categories today. Later in the show, we've got Bess Dugatz dismissal. Is it just Stugatz or is it.

[Chris Cody]

Best dismissal that actually speaks to everybody else the way it used to be combined. And Stugatz was the star. Everybody else stepped up their dismissal game so much that we were able to break them up. And now it's Stugot's dismissal. And later in the week, which is loaded, we will have everybody else dismissals.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, wow.

[Chris Cody]

I mean, Billy brought it, David Sampson brought it. Greg Cody brought it. That's a great category.

[Dan LeBatard]

All right, so, but that's not the one we have today.

[Chris Cody]

St Missal today. And best revelation is what we're going to play here.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, we're going to get to best revelation here in a second. But when you talk about the games that we're headed into this weekend, already Fox and Big Noon is getting exactly what they want out of Dave Portnoy and Barstool because there are reports that Dave Portnoy has been banned from participating in Big Noon kickoff. It seems that all of this would be orchestrated in order to create noise and controversy. And I believe Portnoy and Barstool will be good about attracting attention and attention of young people to rival Lee Corso's departure on espn.

[Greg Cody]

Well, he's not banned from Big Noon. Ok. Big Noon starts their normal studio show and they do like the final segment inside the stadium. He is not being allowed.

[Dan LeBatard]

So forgive me. Good correction. Yes, but he's also, but he's also not banned according to Ohio State's ad, who says and these, they've got so many rules. I got in trouble last year, right, because I sent Ricky to get Lucy into Texas for a game. And there are all sorts of rules of how you get on the field. Except at Texas Stadium, Ricky Williams just walked on the field. He's one of the few with that kind of pass. But we got in all sorts of trouble when we did that because there are rules. And so what Ohio State's AD is saying is this is not a ban. It's just if you're not on the set of Big Noon, you're not on the field and you're not allowed. I don't know who's right or what's accurate here. All of it's good, though, for all of the participants.

[Billy Gil]

Ohio State may be tipping the hand that Portnoy isn't a part of the closing segment, which given their history on how they integrated some of the ancillary cast members, I guess that's a, that's a fair play. This is, I think that this is marketing strategy to drum up interest, make them seem, again, too hot for the situation. It defies logic that if the Big Ten's biggest broadcast partner wanted Dave Portnoy on the field at that desk, he wouldn't be there. That, that just is not a thing that would happen given Fox's investment.

[Dan LeBatard]

Beyond that, one of the things that I was telling you, you mentioned Bill Simmons, but Bill Simmons did have a writing career and at during the last 20 years, at least in part because of how ESPN was Doing the journalism of things, having a writing career is something that made you credentialed, if not physically with a credential. You had the credentials to be welcomed on something like a set that's analyzing games. I don't believe a creature like Dave Portnoy has ever existed in the history of these shows. This is how a network that is struggling, but not with that show and not with Saturdays, a network and not with politics or anywhere else, but a network that is struggling with its sports programming. This is how they get into the game by trying to do something different. Finally, like it's. I've been so frustrated in general with Fox because they're just doing a crappy copy version of whatever has been the norm. So now they're just going to upset everything and they're just going to create chaos and noise and controversy, and it's going to be something that'll be good for the modern age, at least in part, because none of these networks know how to get young people. Paramount, plus, we've been making fun of CBS forever because it's all Murder, She Wrote. They get the UFC because they're like, how do we get young men? We need young men. How do we get them?

[Chris Cody]

Not that I'm super young, but it's working. Like, I am now. Interested. I'm going. I mean, obviously I got to see Corso do the last headgear, but I will be flipping back and forth on Saturday. I want to see what it looks like.

[Billy Gil]

I got to the point with Game Day, and now I think last year was a marked improvement over the previous year, but it kind of felt like Game Day was a cheap imitation of Game Day. Whereas some of the fixtures, the Rinaldi piece, it felt like Big Noon was building on that. A lot of the producers moved over. The bear is a part of it. So. So I was actually going to be totally dialed in on Big Noon because they had the rights to this game and they would have done it up big. But then the emotional aspect of Lee Corso's final college Game day, it's just maybe if there. If I catch him on a commercial break. Otherwise I'll just be tuned into the social clips. But this is all about Lee Corso.

[Greg Cody]

For me, this weekend will especially be interesting because everyone is descending on Columbus. It's Big Noon and it's Game Day are all there together. Like, who's got the bigger crowd? You'd assume it's Game Day, but still, like, everyone is going to be there this weekend.

[Billy Gil]

This is a hero. This is A television hero that is getting a proper sendoff. They're not waiting to the end of the season. They're giving him the big emotional tribute at the start where it all began.

[Greg Cody]

Did you see some of these clips in the special that ESPN aired the other night? I mean, Herb street is crying.

[Billy Gil]

Herb Street's been crying when talking about Lee for 15 years in fear that this day would come. And I'm happy that Lee Corso, that nothing tragic happened, that this is actually going out on his own terms.

[Chris Cody]

Should we set an over under on different times? Herbie cries on Saturday.

[Billy Gil]

Oh, he's gonna be a mess. Four and a half. They're all gonna be a mess over.

[Chris Cody]

Under four and a half.

[Billy Gil]

They all love him so much. It's palpable. That's part of the connective tissue between that show and its audience. It's resonated with an audience, and this includes inside the NBA in terms of a connection to a crowd, to its television audience. No one has ever topped in sports tele what college game day has achieved.

[Dan LeBatard]

The Internet has been cruel for a long time and is cruel to old people. So Dick Vital gets a lot more negative noise now than he used to get. And Lee Corso does, too, because he has struggled with the aging process on air, as anybody could or would at that age. And ESPN has done very little better than the way that they have treated him with care. But when it comes to the coarsening of America and everything that you've seen recently, this is really symbolic that ESPN will get week one, even though that's a giant game with Arch Manning in the middle of it. But where you see the Rogan sphere getting stronger in places, where you see young men getting stronger in places, symbolically, this is a changing of the. The guard that Fox is trying to go after and finish that show with. Because once you lose the connection of that one thing, right, because McAfee does a lot of good stuff with the field goals and giving away money. But the one thing of when he puts on the headgear, that's when my football weekend starts. That the noise on the television for three hours. It's background noise. It's the way you watch all the super bowl pregame stuff. It's just on somewhere in your house. But you're about to descend into no showering for. For the day because you're watching a whole bunch of football. And I think it's super interesting to see what happens with those numbers over time as Urban Meyer, the Dirty One is over on that show. Dave Portnoy, the Dirty One is over there on that show. While ESPN is trying to sell you.

[Billy Gil]

Its past, Nick Saban, the Dirty One is on that show. I mean, don't sell him short. He's not Urban in terms of like this moral spectrum we've established. But he ain't all good, pal.

[Dan LeBatard]

He's less dirty. Still dirty.

[Billy Gil]

Urban's dirty, though. Urban's not getting the commercials because he's dirty.

[Dan LeBatard]

He could get one for detergent. Like you want to scrub your Jacksonville clean of the laughter.

[Chris Cody]

Urban's like those deck shoes after yard work.

[Dan LeBatard]

The things that are happening throughout America, you can also feel them in and around sports. And it is going to be worth watching what Fox does when very rarely is any of this stuff worth watching, like where we anticipate it. College game day is special because it has been that for a long time, but it hasn't had any challenges. Like Stephen A. Smith has been saying, we've been number one for 11 years. But I mean it's like, okay, but you didn't compete against anybody the first seven years years. And then Skip went to a startup and you have been number one and you made the time slot matter. But it wasn't really a time slot that was having heavy competition throughout morning television. You're coming after the king when you come after college game day and you're coming after the king with something that's pretty different. And it's hard to make that stuff different because everybody's copying everybody else.

[Billy Gil]

Hey, Tony.

[Dan LeBatard]

Hey, Mike.

[Billy Gil]

Hey, man. Summer's almost ending, man. I don't like that. There's no way. There's no way I am excited about cooler temperatures. But down here in South Florida, that just means slightly less boiling hot. It's been a pretty incredible summer. We've had a parade down here. We've grown our family down here at Meadowlark Media. A lot of exciting things, a lot of memorable benchmarks. And along the way, at almost every step, I've been tailed by that beautiful white can of Miller Light.

[Dan LeBatard]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the stugats. I wonder if they're going to be any revelations over the course of the weekend. I will Be interested in examining all of that. But, Greg Cody, did you hear any of the Best revelations? I know you did the intros for this, but did you hear any of the actual revelations?

[David Sampson]

I remember many of them, you know, just because they stand out in my mind. But no, all I. All I did was introduce them.

[Chris Cody]

I feel good about this category. And it's the 2025 SUI Awards, presented by Miller Lite. You can cast your [e-mail] winners will be announced a week from today, Tuesday, September 7th. Here is best revelation.

[David Sampson]

And now the SUI nominees for best Revelation. Dan Lebatard hasn't gotten mail in over a decade.

[Dan LeBatard]

I've probably gone more than 10 years without getting a piece of mail.

[Jamel Hill]

That's not true. It's impossible.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, it's not. I, in terms of that gets through my wife and it stops before. I haven't gone to a mailbox. I haven't. I haven't seen a piece of mail in more than 10 years. I'm not even joking.

[David Sampson]

Chris Cody uses his kid to get ice cream.

[Chris Cody]

If I want ice cream, I go, graceland, go tell Mommy we should get ice cream.

[Dan LeBatard]

Does it work?

[Chris Cody]

Multiple steps ahead. And then as I get caught. We were walking out of a restaurant the other day and there was a cold stones right there. So I'm like tapping my daughter. I'm like, look, right? And my. My wife looks back and sees me pointing at the cold stones, like, tell.

[Billy Gil]

Mommy we should go.

[Chris Cody]

And I'm just like, oh. I was looking, stretching my arm.

[Billy Gil]

Can't you just go?

[Chris Cody]

It was a school night. It was past 8:30. My wife has this thing past.

[Jamel Hill]

You still have homework to do, Chris?

[David Sampson]

No.

[Chris Cody]

My daughter needs to go to sleep.

[David Sampson]

David Sampson honored a player on Jewish Heritage Night who wasn't Jewish.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

We honored him on Jewish Heritage Day because the last name's Jacob. So you can get away with it. But of course he's not Jewish. But no one needs to know that.

[Billy Gil]

Wait a second. So he's Jewish and you talked about this? So wait, wait.

[Dan LeBatard]

He had a Jewish name.

[Billy Gil]

Wait.

[Dan LeBatard]

He whimpers out of the side of his face.

[Billy Gil]

So you talked about this beforehand. Did. Was the assumption made that he was Jewish? You knew that he wasn't.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

I knew he put the G in Goyam. Of course I knew he wasn't Jewish.

[Dan LeBatard]

So that's a fraud on the.

[Billy Gil]

Why'd you go through with fraud?

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Because when you announce Jewish Heritage Day and like a bobblehead of Mike Jacobs, everyone's like, oh, my God, you have a great Jewish player. And we're like, yeah, he's hitting 30 bombs. He's part of our young core. It's a great idea to honor him and to celebrate Jewish Heritage Night.

[Dan LeBatard]

But he's not.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Oh, I forgot. He goes to church on Sunday.

[David Sampson]

Tim Kirchen reveals he cheated, and his son texted him the answer.

[Dan LeBatard]

Wait, wait. Martin Scorsese. Martin Scorsese. You looked it up. You looked it up. You looked it up. We don't believe he doesn't know how to look it up. Jeffrey texted it. This is what you do. Work together.

[David Sampson]

To me.

[Dan LeBatard]

And then I pretended like I remembered it. My son told me, you liar. And all this time, I thought you were a better writer than Peter Richmond. This is what you're telling me.

[David Sampson]

John Skipper and David Sampson reveal their need to be above people during business meetings on the sporting class.

[Dan LeBatard]

When I was at espn, I always made sure I had the highest chair.

[David Sampson]

Wait.

[Dan LeBatard]

In a meeting, I see you. You wanted to look down upon everybody. No, I wanted them to have to look up to me.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

All of that matters. I would do conversations with players only standing on the top step of the dugout with them in the dugout because I didn't want to go in with the power dynamic of me, or I would do it sitting down on the bench in the dugout, but I wouldn't want to do any sort of serious conversation with the player or with anyone where there is a huge height difference.

[Dan LeBatard]

It sounds like you were on the top step quite a bit.

[David Sampson]

Then Dan Lebatard reveals his shady monthly doctor appointments.

[Dan LeBatard]

I have to give blood every couple of months to get my blood tested, and I do it in the alley behind my house like that. Somebody comes over, and because I have to rush to work and get it in the right time, people would drive by and see me in the back of a van. A Suburban, actually is heroin.

[Jamel Hill]

The variety of things you're doing.

[Dan LeBatard]

And I'd be. And they would see me getting a needle to the arm with my arm wrapped. That is a photograph that can be well in a Suburban.

[Commercial Announcer]

What are you talking about?

[Dan LeBatard]

I like how he's getting out in.

[Jamel Hill]

Front of this story.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's smart of him. I like what he just did there. He gets out in front of the.

[David Sampson]

Photos that are clearly gonna Dr. Dude.

[Jamel Hill]

That suburban 100% has a heat license.

[Billy Gil]

Plate or black Miami. University of Miami license plate.

[Jamel Hill]

Miami Dade. Like, student parking decal on it.

[David Sampson]

Dan Lebatard added an open bar at his funeral to his will. Okay, first of all, is there an open bar at this Funeral. Okay. That factors in.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah. Do funerals have open bars?

[Jonathan Zaslow]

No, Never.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, no, hold on. It's.

[David Sampson]

You know.

[Dan LeBatard]

Do we know this?

[David Sampson]

We decided.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, I actually. It's funny that you say that, because I recently put that in my will as part of estate planning.

[Jamel Hill]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

Thanks, man.

[David Sampson]

Yes. Tim Kirchen reveals what he did in Cuba. But I did go to Cuba, and I had a mojito, which I'd never had before.

[Dan LeBatard]

Whoa, Wacky. You make me sexy.

[David Sampson]

Dan Lebartard never wore a seat belt until the early 2000s.

[Dan LeBatard]

I did not start wearing a seat belt until Derek Thomas was paralyzed in an accident. Really? Yes. I'd never worn a seat belt in my life as a driver. I had never before worn a seat belt in my life before. Derek Thomas was paralyzed in an accident.

[Billy Gil]

What year is that, Dan?

[Dan LeBatard]

Because I don't shock.

[Billy Gil]

I don't know. Derek Thomas.

[Jamel Hill]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

I don't know that story. The Chiefs, right, At Florida State. Yeah. This would have been 2000. Yeah. So 20. 22 years ago, throughout my 20s, I drove without a seat belt. And you telling me you sat in the car and you let it go? No, it didn't do that back then. The technology wasn't there yet.

[David Sampson]

We hadn't been that advanced yet. Andrew Santino reveals the car that Jeremy Tach drives.

[Jamel Hill]

You know what you are, Teshay? You're in the Hyundai world. You're a Hyundai driver. You like Hyundai. And based on your look, I'm going to guess it's that town in down south Arizona. You're a Tucson.

[Dan LeBatard]

You're a no way. Hyundai. Tucson.

[Chris Cody]

It even has a Schitt's Creek sticker on the back of it.

[Jamel Hill]

Oh, my God.

[David Sampson]

David Sampson reveals why he lost Survivor on the first episode.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

I was in row 86 on the way to the Philippines for Survivor, and I upgraded myself on the plane. And much to the chagrin of the fellow survivors, I didn't realize at the time, but they ended up holding that against me, that I wasn't willing to sit in the middle, grounded by, like.

[Chris Cody]

Babies for a 14 hour.

[Dan LeBatard]

You became the target. You have no people skills. I wonder why they kicked you off the island so quickly. You don't understand community.

[Jamel Hill]

You're about to go on a stranded island for 39 days like Jeff. I'd like to upgrade, please. What do we. How much do I have to give you for a 10 out here for me and my.

[Dan LeBatard]

You thought you were gonna win and you. You lost on the plane right over. You lost.

[David Sampson]

Dan Lebatard's Parents once had sex with him under the bed.

[Dan LeBatard]

You don't understand the way that you're triggering for me the memory of being under my parents bed when they were having. Well, I didn't know what sex was at the time. The. The bed was just a rock. And this is your first. This is your ultimate core memory. I think this is driven everything. But this is the thing. It's been buried for 50 years. I've got long.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Did it last?

[Dan LeBatard]

I've got no memory. It was very short. But I didn't. I. That's in retro. I didn't know what they were doing. I didn't know what they were doing. Why is the bedrocking. I mean look, for me it wasn't even discussed. That was in retrospect. At the moment it was just fear. These are not small people. The bed is rocking. I'm under it.

[David Sampson]

Mike Ryan sprints into the movie theater for every Mission Impossible movie.

[Billy Gil]

I went to go see Mission Impossible. Now my tradition is to get out of my car and sprint full speed to the movie theater. I always do that. Any Mission Impossible your tradition. That is my tradition. For the last six movies I've done that. Go to the theater, get out of my car, full sprint.

[Chris Cody]

Do you videotape it? Like put it on social.

[Billy Gil]

This is just personal.

[Chris Cody]

Something ridiculous.

[Billy Gil]

I keep hoping that someone's gonna in and we can have a nice little moment. Doesn't happen.

[David Sampson]

David Sampson suffers from night terrors.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

I suffer from terrible night terrors, which is when you have nightmares and you. You basically are screaming in your sleep. And if you happen to be lucky enough to sleep with somebody, you get awoken by someone who is scared and wondering what will happen when they wake you. But you're making noises and I. My night terrors. Dan is. I am panting and I am. It's the same one. It's a recurring night terror that I have way too often. There is not a week that goes by that I do not wake up screaming.

[David Sampson]

Ron McGill reveals the first thing chimps do when attacking.

[Billy Gil]

The reality is when chimps come at you, one of the first things they do is they try to bite off your genitals.

[Jamel Hill]

That's the reality. The first thing a chimp does when it comes up to you is tries to bite off your genitals. That's how they fight each other.

[Billy Gil]

They go right for the genitals. They try to bite them off.

[David Sampson]

Chris Cody reveals he had a one eyed uncle Mike.

[Dan LeBatard]

Billy yelled at Zaslow. Point the cork toward you. And I heard Chris Cody say my Uncle Mike lost an eye that way.

[Chris Cody]

My uncle Mike lost his eye opening a champagne bottle. Rip. He didn't die from the champagne. He's no longer with us. But he died with one eye. He had a glass eye party. It was weird. It didn't look at you. It kind of like looked off to the side.

[Jamel Hill]

What color was it? Did it match?

[Chris Cody]

No, it didn't match the color. Blue eyes. And the glass eye tried to be brown, but it was just like a different shade of blue.

[David Sampson]

Earlene Cody reveals Greg Cody's homerism.

[Dan LeBatard]

The first question I would ask you, Earlene, is yes or no, your husband is a fan of the Dolphins. Yes. He's so mad at me right now. Yes. Yes. I. I don't think we have any more questions.

[David Sampson]

I have plenty of questions. David Sampson would try to make trades on Thanksgiving to avoid family time.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

I used to try to purposely make trades on Thanksgiving so I could get away from the Thanksgiving dinner. And so what I would do.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's a heady place revelation.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

And we did it. And we actually succeeded in completing some transactions. Right.

[David Sampson]

On Thanksgiving, Roy Bellamy picked up his daughter from school in full hockey gear on mystery crate.

[Chris Cody]

Roy went, picked up his daughter, and then Drew in full uniform. I mean, clearly couldn't have been driving with the skates on.

[Dan LeBatard]

No.

[Chris Cody]

So maybe the skates came off, but other than that.

[Greg Cody]

That full.

[Chris Cody]

Did you have the helmet on for the entire drive?

[Dan LeBatard]

No, it was in my hockey bag.

[Billy Gil]

What happened was a little bit after the show, Anita told me that I.

[Dan LeBatard]

Had to pick up Claire.

[Chris Cody]

The visual you did you Is this car line pickup.

[Dan LeBatard]

No. You had to get out.

[Billy Gil]

I had to get out. I had to walk to the front. No, Roy, that's not true.

[Dan LeBatard]

Stop. It's very much true. Did you put the mask back on? No. People wouldn't actually see your face. No. No.

[David Sampson]

Billy Gill reveals he once had cornrows.

[Jamel Hill]

I had cornrows once. It was a summer. Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

Shout out to my.

[Billy Gil]

Went to Bahamas.

[Jamel Hill]

I did honestly, like, I did sleep with the durag tonight. It hurts so much to get it done.

[Dan LeBatard]

Particularly if your hair is not curly enough to hold onto the cornrows. You better put this.

[Jamel Hill]

Maybe two of them. I'm trying to find the picture to send to you guys privately. But, like, yeah, that was one of those things that disappeared because I was worried because I'm like, this is going to be appropriation.

[Dan LeBatard]

If you want it to be private, don't send it.

[David Sampson]

Chris Cody reveals one of his first crushes.

[Chris Cody]

One of my first crushes was Angelica Pickles.

[Dan LeBatard]

Mom.

[Chris Cody]

Charlotte Pickles.

[David Sampson]

Jonathan Zaslow texted the arena about an unruly fan.

[Dan LeBatard]

They have that code that you got a text, right?

[Greg Cody]

Text 60555 unruly fans.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

And then they'll. It's. It's kind of like that's not good enough.

[Chris Cody]

Do you guys ever send a text? You ever text it?

[Dan LeBatard]

Never.

[Greg Cody]

I did one time when someone in my section was room for the other team. I text so and so room for other team.

[Jamel Hill]

Really?

[Billy Gil]

They picked a person out.

[Dan LeBatard]

Wait, was this. Why would you tell on somebody rooting for the other team?

[Greg Cody]

To me, that was unruly.

[Jamel Hill]

Yeah.

[David Sampson]

Keith Yandel reveals his least favorite athlete of all time.

[Dan LeBatard]

My least favorite athlete of all time.

[Billy Gil]

Is probably Vijay Singh, and I don't know why.

[Dan LeBatard]

What did he do to you, bj? I mean, harmless DJ Singh.

[Billy Gil]

He's probably the best guy in the world.

[Dan LeBatard]

What a weird, weird. If you gave me a million guesses, BJ Singh, all he did was represent golf himself and. And his country well. And you hate him for no good reason.

[Billy Gil]

He gave us nothing. He literally gave us nothing.

[Dan LeBatard]

Like, I never even heard him interviewed or anything. And I'm sure he's the best guy. He's probably an unreal family guy.

[David Sampson]

Dan Levatard reveals he's a sleep farter.

[Dan LeBatard]

I'm a sleep farter. I was just informed of that the other day, to my mortification. And it's after I've eaten in restaurants where they've lied to me about the ingredients because I'm like, no dairy, no gluten. I need vegan cheese. I need garlic and no paprika. And I need to make sure there's no turmeric. Yes. Just pecans and occasionally some macadamia nuts. Have the conversation go. When your wife revealed to you that you're asleep. Embarrassing. It was embarrassing to me.

[David Sampson]

Jamel Hill has Cher's number.

[Dan LeBatard]

I have share my phone. Would y' all take share around?

[David Sampson]

I have shared.

[Dan LeBatard]

Sharon. I have texted before. That's a flex.

[David Sampson]

Greg Cody says punt whenever watching a punt.

[Chris Cody]

One of my favorite things my dad does watching a football game. Anytime there's a punt, as the the ball contacts the kicker's foot, he says punt.

[Dan LeBatard]

He's done it for 30 years.

[David Sampson]

Sound where something happening actually is verified by that web punt.

[Dan LeBatard]

Chris, tell me more about this is.

[Chris Cody]

So how are we just learning my entire life. Anytime there's a pun you just like, you have to catch it. It'll say it low pun.

[Dan LeBatard]

The snap is it when the ball.

[Chris Cody]

Meets the foot as the ball is being punted.

[David Sampson]

It has to be breathless.

[Chris Cody]

He's always claimed that the word punt actually sounds like what you hear.

[Dan LeBatard]

So it's onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeia.

[Jamel Hill]

A word.

[Dan LeBatard]

A word that sounds like what it is.

[Chris Cody]

Exactly.

[Dan LeBatard]

What?

[David Sampson]

Nothing. Poppy Levitard reveals that at his age, anything smells good.

[Dan LeBatard]

At my age, anything smells good.

[David Sampson]

What? Whatever that means.

[Dan LeBatard]

Greg, are you that age yet?

[David Sampson]

Not quite. I hope to get there.

[Dan LeBatard]

I have no.

[David Sampson]

He's my hero.

[Dan LeBatard]

I have no idea what that means. Well, at my age. And I cannot be juicy. I don't know. My father's simply saying that at his age there are no bad smells. That you. Once you get into 80, that's it all the fact that you're smelling anything. If I can smell, I'm alive, that's immense.

[Commercial Announcer]

Eczema isn't always obvious, but it's real. And so is the relief from Epglis. After an initial dosing phase, about 4 in 10 people taking EPGLIS achieved itch relief and clear or almost clear skin at 16 weeks. And most of those people maintain skin that's still more clear at one year with monthly dosing.

[Pharmaceutical Announcer]

EVGLIS Lebricizumab LBKZ, a 250mg injection, is a prescription medicine used to treat adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds or 40 kilograms with moderate to severe eczema, also called atopic dermatitis, that is not well controlled with prescription therapies used on the skin or topicals, or who cannot use topical therapies. EBGLIS can be used with or without topical corticosteroids. Don't use if you're allergic to Eglis. Allergic reactions can occur that can be severe. Eye problems can occur.

[Dan LeBatard]

Occur.

[Pharmaceutical Announcer]

Tell your doctor if you have new or worsening eye problems. You should not receive a live vaccine when treated with Epglis. Before starting Epglis, tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection searching for real relief?

[Commercial Announcer]

Ask your doctor about ebglis and visit epgliss lily.com or call 1-800-LilyRx or 1-800-545-5979.

[Dan LeBatard]

Mama Papa de la Vuelta Clases de Amazon, Amazon Gas, Amenos son Riemas.

[Commercial Announcer]

You say you'll never join the Navy, that living on a submarine would be too hard. You'd never power a whole ship with nuclear energy, never bring a patient back.

[Dan LeBatard]

To life or play the national anthem for a sold out crowd.

[Commercial Announcer]

Joining the Navy sounds crazy. Saying never actually is. Start your [e-mail] America's Navy. Forged by the sea.

[Dan LeBatard]

Don LeBatard.

[David Sampson]

My wife says this is a sexy voice.

[Jamel Hill]

It really is. Yeah, I'm hard.

[David Sampson]

Thank you. Wow.

[Billy Gil]

Stugats.

[David Sampson]

So am I, actually. I don't know why.

[Dan LeBatard]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the stugats. Put it on the poll, please. Juju, Does a punt sound like the word punt? The thing that's been happening around here that has been dismaying to me recently is the people here have been accusing me publicly of being a liar. And Billy does not believe that I get blood taken in the alley. So just this morning, I sent Billy this video. This morning.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Good.

[Dan LeBatard]

Billy, you don't believe me that we get blood in the alley. The blood fairy is here. It's going to look like heroin. I'm giving. I'm getting heroin in the alley here. Just a little update to prove to Billy that it's true.

[Chris Cody]

That must be so expensive.

[Jamel Hill]

I'm no less concerned about the situation after the video evidence.

[Dan LeBatard]

But it's true. At least you know that it's true.

[David Sampson]

Well, we never saw the needle in the arm.

[Jamel Hill]

That is true, too. Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

True today because of how humid it is in South Florida right now. It was leaking because she tried to put the bandage on and it wouldn't stick because of just. Just how hot it is outside with no wind and stuff. You're just going down there and sweating. So the bandage wouldn't stick. So it started. It started leaking out from under the bandage.

[Billy Gil]

Maybe Billy was an outlier there. We always believed that.

[Chris Cody]

That one I believe.

[Jamel Hill]

I knew it was happening.

[Chris Cody]

Rich people, probably.

[Billy Gil]

Yeah, that's.

[Chris Cody]

It's the mail thing. I don't believe. You haven't gotten mail in 10 years.

[Billy Gil]

Rich people. It's the award show thing. You've watched an award show. I just know it.

[Jamel Hill]

Someone earlier today said. And I won't betray any confidence. Someone earlier said. Today Dan's become that friend that just says things.

[Dan LeBatard]

All of those things I said are true, though. When. When you say it's not that expensive. Actually, it's rather.

[Jamel Hill]

What are they doing? Taking blood? Giving you blood. What's the deal with this blood exchange?

[Dan LeBatard]

They are taking blood so that doctors can look at where my blood is so that I can make sure that I'm healthy. Because we need money to keep coming in here.

[Greg Cody]

How come no one doubts that you're a sleep farter?

[Dan LeBatard]

That just seems believable. Just look at me. Does I think. Put it on the poll at Lebatard show. Can you identify sleep farters just from looking at people?

[Jamel Hill]

What if, like, a bus drives by with the blood fairy and, like, fumes get in, like the needle somehow and like, wow, you have a lot of carbon emissions in your blood.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's not. It's more than that. At 8am every day, like clockwork, those garbage trucks come through on whenever the days are Tuesday and Friday, they come through, and it is not a healthy thing I am doing. Well, I guess it is a healthy thing. It's not the best place to do it.

[Jamel Hill]

Why is. Hey, Dr. Ferry, just come upstairs. Let's do this, you know, in the living room, whatever, on the counter.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's just more convenient to get in and out. The way that I'm doing it, it's just quicker. I've got to get to other things. So these things are efficient. You guys don't believe the mail thing? The. Of the mail gets to me. I just don't. I. I don't know how to open our mailbox. Where it is at home. I don't know where the keys are to our mailbox. I have no idea where it is.

[David Sampson]

You don't know how to open a mailbox.

[Dan LeBatard]

I don't know where the keys to our mailbox are. I don't. You know, what was the third thing that you guys don't believe?

[Chris Cody]

It was the award show.

[David Sampson]

The award show for sure.

[Billy Gil]

Everything else is totally believable, and it would be unbelievable if you actually did pick up your own mail.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, I'm not alone. I think the majority of our audience probably hasn't watched an award show in 10 years, like I think the award show has. The grand majority of people are not watching the award shows. Like, whatever the numbers are, the dying numbers on award shows. The grand majority of people watching television are not watching the award shows.

[David Sampson]

Yeah, but you could say half of the country's not watching the Super Bowl. I mean, you know, you're never gonna get the audience that you used to have.

[Dan LeBatard]

When's the last time you saw an award show? When would you say was the last time you sat in front of a TV television watch 10 minutes of an award show?

[David Sampson]

Almost every award show. Because my wife is addicted to award shows. So if I'm in the house, the award show will be on.

[Billy Gil]

Not watching the Grammys, pal.

[Jamel Hill]

Aspire to be. Greg's level of normal also is not.

[Chris Cody]

I feel like my dad's relationship with award shows is everyone in the middle? It's on.

[Billy Gil]

It's in the middle of February.

[Chris Cody]

I'M with you. Nobody is like, I have to watch this.

[Dan LeBatard]

But it's a lot of people. There are a lot of people who will watch an award show, but that's just not one. Look, man, there's no appointment viewing anymore other than live sports. Like, they're.

[Billy Gil]

They're award shows. That. That's the whole point of award shows. That's why there's still a thing.

[Chris Cody]

But you can see on clips. But a lot of the clips get put out to dance point. Like, you'll see all the good stuff.

[Dan LeBatard]

Online award shows are going the way of late night television is just taking a little bit longer.

[David Sampson]

I care about the Grammys. I'll watch the country music Awards. I'm not big on the Emmys or the Golden Globes or anything like that. But my wife, for whatever reason, loves award shows.

[Chris Cody]

I like the red carpet. I'm a sucker for on a Sunday. It's nice Sunday television getting ready for the work week. Let me just throw on the red carpet. Like, I'm more into the red carpet than I am the actual award show.

[Billy Gil]

That's another thing. You're married. I feel like Valerie would be all over a Grammy Awards or a red. The occasional red carpet.

[Dan LeBatard]

Nope.

[Chris Cody]

See who Ryan Seacrest is talking to today.

[Jamel Hill]

You guys aren't fans of Glambot The.

[Chris Cody]

Oh, yeah.

[Jamel Hill]

I like that little thing where they also the one where you walk your fingernails on the right red Runway. Look at the manicure on this one.

[Billy Gil]

I miss Joan Rivers.

[David Sampson]

Yeah, yeah. I hate the red carpet. I hate. I hate the question, who are you wearing?

[Jamel Hill]

Really?

[David Sampson]

That question just grates on my nerves every time I hear it. Who are you wearing? I'm wearing a jacket. I'm wearing a dress.

[Chris Cody]

They changed it. They've changed it to what's the story you're telling?

[David Sampson]

Yeah, I've heard that too.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, what's the story you're telling with that shirt we talked about for five minutes?

[David Sampson]

It's my disco shirt.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, but I'm saying we just did that. We just did that.

[David Sampson]

But who am I wearing? Like, I don't know the label on it. Who am I wearing? If you ask me, why are you wearing a weird shirt? I'm like, it's my disco shirt.

[Chris Cody]

What do we got here?

[Jamel Hill]

Don't you love when, like, a costume becomes part of your regular wardrobe?

[David Sampson]

Yes.

[Chris Cody]

What is it, dan?

[Dan LeBatard]

I do 100% nylon. It's something called SSLR.

[David Sampson]

Sears and Roberts.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think it was Sears and Roebuck.

[David Sampson]

I know, but my Nana Doogie used to say Sears And Roberts, she was like a Casey Stengel, you know, before her time. She would mispronounce words and almost get the right word. But instead of Sears and Roebuck, it was Sears and Roberts, God bless her soul. Nana Dookie died way too young. Died of sugar diabetes when she was in her early 60s. I barely remember her.

[Billy Gil]

Available at Walmart.

[Chris Cody]

Seemed to be like Hawaiian type shirts and casual wear.

[David Sampson]

There you go. See, it's a big name in this line.

[Chris Cody]

I don't know if it's a big name.

[Dan LeBatard]

I wanted to ask you guys this question because a friend of mine told me just yesterday that he is no longer going to Publix because Publix is. He's seen them side by side, that if you do the grocery shopping at Walmart, it's half as much right now as it is for the same things at Publix because of everything that's happening with farming, with tariffs, with inflation, with every everything else that you can do your grocery shopping at a Walmart or a Target for half as much as you can in grocery stores that he's saying are now actively gouging because you could just put the prices next to each other and see that one place can afford to sell it for half as much as the other. Has this been your experience? Obviously, we've all seen what's gone up at the grocery store. I'm guessing all of you have seen like the places where the grocery stores don't have some things that they usually have. And all people, it seems like, are feeling the weight of how prices are changing.

[Billy Gil]

The bigger corporations are under more pressure from the current administration to not have the prices caused by tariffs rolled down to the customer. Also, for big national brands, those price increases take a couple of weeks to take into effect, which is why a lot of economic experts are saying we haven't even felt the full brunt of the economic impact of the tariffs just yet. But a shop like Publix, which is more regional, quicker to increase those prices.

[Dan LeBatard]

Chris, can you give me a rough estimate for what this shirt. What is your father wearing? What is it? What is the story that he's telling now that we have studied that shirt and it hasn't been worn a lot, right, Greg?

[David Sampson]

No, it hasn't. This is probably the third or fourth time I've ever worn it.

[Dan LeBatard]

The bejeweled buttons are a nice touch. They are the gold encrusted buttons.

[David Sampson]
