Greg Cody
Welcome to the Big Sui presented by DraftKings.
Chris Cody
Why are you listening to this show?
Greg Cody
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.
Chris Cody
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.
Greg Cody
I've done it. And now here's the marching man to Nowhere Fat Face and the habitual liar.
Billy Gill
This episode of the Dan Lobital show with Stugac is sponsored by DraftKings. The Crown is yours, Roy.
Chris Cody
I still don't feel like your confidence is where it needs to be on those reads. There's something pressurized about those reads that makes Chris Cody quiver a little bit.
Billy Gill
Oh, he's quivering back there.
Mike Ryan
DraftKings, the Crown is yours.
Tony
He's your bear.
Mike Ryan
I am back here, baby.
Billy Gill
He's good. I'm working on mine.
Mike Ryan
Man, I miss this row. How you guys doing back here?
Tony
We love it.
Chris Cody
How. How is the orange stuff going? Can we get Billy Gill? Are we. I know.
Dan LeBatard
He's off going terrible. The first month of this administration's been a disaster.
Chris Cody
The glass experiment that we're doing there has how many oranges in it?
Mike Ryan
This is three large oranges. I think they were kind of. They were. I was trying to like, take a victory lap here, and they're like, hey, listen, you got huge oranges there. It's like, I mean, I can't control the orange.
Chris Cody
That's also not a lot of juice. Like, for. For the work.
Greg Cody
You just under half a glass.
Chris Cody
It's half a glass. And you would Billy. If we got Billy in off of. Off of his day off to make a ruling. He's alleging that aren't the juice isn't worth the squeeze that. That if you squeeze these oranges, what you're getting isn't very much. And right now, from what I see, despite all your bragging, that's not very much orange juice.
Mike Ryan
And the YouTube audience was telling me that I was doing it very inefficiently. I basically cut it in half and just squee. They were saying if I broke it down into quarters, I could have got way more juice. So I'm take. I think this is a large glass here, guys. Like, if you're at a restaurant, you're not getting much more orange juice than this. When you order a glass, you're getting a full glass. You guys don't ever get. You get these like little glasses of orange juice. Sometimes I would be insulted if they.
Jessica
If they gave me this and I said, hey, let me get a glass of orange juice. And they hand me this.
Mike Ryan
Well, they would put.
Dan LeBatard
They would put it in like a juice glass or a highball glass.
Mike Ryan
It would be in a smaller glass is my point.
Jessica
Fill it up to the top.
Mike Ryan
Okay.
Dan LeBatard
Not a juice glass.
Chris Cody
Let's get.
Mike Ryan
I am having. I am having an American breakfast, though. Some OJ squeezed and some bacon. Some American bacon. Hey, Canada. Get out of here with your ham. Okay, that's not bacon. This is bacon.
Tony
Yes, Enjoy that bacon.
Mike Ryan
I will. You want some, Dad?
Tony
I would love some bacon.
Mike Ryan
I'm bring my dad some bacon.
Tony
Somebody could you. That'd be great.
Billy Gill
Yeah.
Tony
Three, four slices would be great. Extra crisp. When you hold a piece of bacon at the end, it has to like the best. It has to be straight. If it droops, it's not cook properly.
Greg Cody
Greg, you know what happened to me this morning? I took out a piece of bacon and it was stuck to another piece of bacon.
Chris Cody
Oh, I saw this. I saw this. Look, I love. Okay, let me explain to you what happened this morning, because it was amazing to witness this particular protein, gluttony and shared communion between slobs that Chris, Cody and Stugatz had in a silent moment as stugatzes want to do with our community breakfast. He sticks his hand right beyond the tongs and just pulls the bacon out of a tin. He holds it while it drips grease in front of Greg, Chris Cody's nose. And Chris Cody gave him a double thumbs up and they had the celebration of Stugac's sausage fingers. Sausage and bacon in the sky. Disgusting. No plate, no napkin, no nothing. Nothing that would indicate that he cares at all. That oils will soon be on his fingers, pants and floor.
Greg Cody
Right. The way bacon was intense, intended to be eaten. I mean. Thank you.
Tony
That's exactly right.
Chris Cody
I put it on the poll at Lebatard show. Hey, Canada, your ham's not bacon. Yes or no? This game tonight. Please give me some context for caring about an exhibition. Because patriotism is involved. It has much of nothing to do with the Olympics or actual stakes. Right. They're invented stakes. They're not. They're. They're totally contra.
Greg Cody
He's eating bacon.
Tony
I mean, what Joe Rose can make, right? SMRs on the. In the air. And I can.
Greg Cody
I have an update on the big dog, by the way. He's getting $50 per live read.
Tony
Yes.
Mike Ryan
We get my dad not giving a take. As close to the microphone as he could possibly be. Then when he's giving a take, he's leaning back.
Chris Cody
SMRS is what he's right. With confidence.
Jessica
He's right.
Tony
Isn't that a thing?
Greg Cody
Yep, it is.
Tony
Thank you.
Greg Cody
Mm.
Billy Gill
It's your thing now.
Tony
Extra good bacon.
Greg Cody
It's very good bacon.
Tony
Shout out to Uncle Dick.
Stugatz
What?
Greg Cody
Why?
Chris Cody
All right, I've had enough of this. I can't deal with like. He's just.
Tony
He likes bacon more than anybody I know.
Chris Cody
Tony, he's put salt on his bacon.
Jessica
Shout out to Uncle Tony.
Chris Cody
He's full bloom narcissism. I gotta get out. I got to get him out of here in order to just get our shit together.
Mike Ryan
Minor penalty, two minutes spreading propaganda.
Chris Cody
I don't. I don't even know what I hit there. I thought that. I thought that was the me maximum. I don't see the me maximum. Out. It's not on here anymore. Get out of here.
Mike Ryan
Uncle Dick salts his bacon.
Chris Cody
Just get out of here.
Dan LeBatard
That would kill Dan Levitar.
Chris Cody
Just get out of here.
Billy Gill
Bacon's already salt.
Chris Cody
Believe it or not. I can have. I can have the. I can have pork.
Greg Cody
Really? Salt.
Jessica
Salted pork.
Chris Cody
I can have salt. I can have salt and have proteins.
Dan LeBatard
So you can't have garlic or fart. Those are like two of the greatest gifts that the human body can experience.
Chris Cody
No, I can fart. It's just if I fart, it means I've eaten something I shouldn't have eaten. I can fart.
Mike Ryan
Same for me, right?
Chris Cody
What are you doing?
Greg Cody
It.
Chris Cody
What?
Greg Cody
Fart in his sleep.
Chris Cody
I mean, what do you have me doing? You have me muffling a lifetime of farts. I can fart. You have me with an inability to fart.
Dan LeBatard
I just have you not fully experiencing and enjoying.
Jessica
It's almost like he doesn't like farting, right? Like, I think that's the issue.
Chris Cody
Put it on the pole at Levitar show. I'm not. I'm trying to not screw up my digestive tract in a way that poisons do that.
Jessica
Come on.
Greg Cody
But if you eat the correct foods, will you ever fart?
Chris Cody
No. That's what I'm saying.
Greg Cody
What a misery. I mean, seriously, everyone has to fart. Dad. Farting Feels good.
Chris Cody
Feels great.
Greg Cody
Yeah.
Chris Cody
Okay, put it on the poll at Lebatard show. Do you like to fart? Yes or no?
Greg Cody
Who does it?
Chris Cody
Okay. I just want to see. I want to see. What? I don't. It's not going to come back 100%, right? It never has. Never in the history of the show has it come back 100%. What do you think the answer is going to be? You think everyone's going to say yes? We're going to get a resounding 80 or 90%. Do you like to fart?
Dan LeBatard
What if we also ask if is farting worth the cost of eating garlic? Cuz that's definitely a Hondo.
Billy Gill
There's gotta be a pro to this, right? Because you know, farting, that's a buildup of gases. I mean, you're not feeling bloated, are you?
Chris Cody
I am not. But I will tell you that all of this started. I don't wanna bore you guys with all of this, but I'm doing acupuncture three times a week. Stugatz is still making fun of me for how I'm getting my blood tested. We'll get to that in a second. But I'm doing an assortment of things that. And this is darker than I meant to go here. But the way that my body inflated, absorbing everything was happening around my brother's deathbed had nothing to do with eating. I gained 50 pounds of weight that were just. Whatever that is, stress shooting up the cortisol into my body. My. My eating didn't change at all. And then I look up one day and I'm £290 and I haven't changed my eating. It was just all sitting by that bed for 10 months. So I'm trying to do whatever I have to do through whatever holistic medicines I can to get rid of those sort of cortisol inflations. And it involves me giving blood every two months in the back alley behind my house, which Stugach thinks is uproariously funny and wasn't quite quick enough yesterday to make fun of me until the microphones were off, but then had an avalanche for me. So what do you have on this front? Because you. I talked to the blood woman who comes by, and I'm saying we're going to have to. She's Melinda. Melinda. Blood woman.
Greg Cody
First name basis? Yeah. Perfect name.
Dan LeBatard
She would have been burned at the stake 200 years ago for being a blood woman.
Chris Cody
I call her the blood fairy, actually. And that would have happened 200 years ago as well. Yes. We have a number of things in play here that are in a back alley that caused me. If someone saw it happening, if someone photographed me doing it, they would think I was doing heroin in the back of a suburban with somebody who was administering it clinically. So I was getting like, it's even Mike get my heroin, that I can't do it for myself, that I need somebody else. And so we're going to. We need to talk to her, because I want you guys to understand just how dirty an alley this is.
Greg Cody
Right.
Chris Cody
Like, what I'm doing here is something that to anyone going by would look vaguely unclean because of where it's being done.
Greg Cody
So I'm familiar with those alleys down on South Beach. That was one of my questions. Like, you're doing this in a very unclean place.
Chris Cody
That's correct. But the back of her car is plenty clean. And if someone photographs me, it'll be in the tablet.
Mike Ryan
Because she's blood woman.
Chris Cody
That's right.
Dan LeBatard
Steve's cigarette butts from 20 years ago are still in that alley.
Greg Cody
Littered. Yes. So she comes in a car, A big car.
Chris Cody
Yes. A suburban.
Greg Cody
Like, who is she with? Is she with the Red cross?
Chris Cody
It's just her.
Greg Cody
She just collects blood.
Chris Cody
Red cross?
Greg Cody
Yeah. I mean, it's a blood. Like, what are you giving blood for?
Chris Cody
To get my blood tested so that I can do the proper things daily to not pollute my body with things that they shouldn't be polluted.
Jessica
Dan, you're like Lance Armstrong. You're like blood doping. Like, what's going on here?
Chris Cody
I am trying to stay alive and healthy so that we can have a company that functions.
Dan LeBatard
You're telling us this and like, the sort of. Like, the way you're saying it is like, duh, you guys don't do that.
Greg Cody
You guys don't come to your back alley.
Chris Cody
I know you guys are not doing acupuncture three times a week, but our.
Dan LeBatard
Insurance does not cover that.
Chris Cody
Yeah, neither does mine. And I will tell you that with all. I mean, look, I can get in my way in terms of the mysticisms, with my cynicism, but it's working. Like, everything that I'm doing that these people are putting me through is something that is making me feel physically in a way that is different from any way I've ever felt in my life. So we will mock it, and it is a funny way. I wouldn't go to these lengths on allergies and food. I like eating. You've seen all my inflated life on television. I'm a fat pioneer. I made. Look, I ate so that Wind Horse could gorge. I'm a pioneer on fat men on television. Yeah, you are. So I like to eat. I was. I was affiliated with Nachos as word association for about 10 years of my life. You were the.
Mike Ryan
You were the guy that came over to my dad's house and made nachos.
Chris Cody
That's right.
Tony
Oh, you'd go right into the fridge, get out some chips, get out some salsa and go to town.
Mike Ryan
Honestly, never looked up to you more. I was just like, I need that one day where I could just go to my friend's house and just make nacho. And I have it now, and it's freaking awesome.
Stugatz
Joey's.
Mike Ryan
Yeah.
Tony
You'Re welcome.
Chris Cody
I don't think that Greg Cody has ever given me a greater gift than being able to go to his house and just make nachos.
Mike Ryan
Play Pac Man.
Tony
Oh, yeah. Yeah. That machine. I need to get it fixed. Damn it.
Greg Cody
What's going on?
Chris Cody
That's the least surprising thing in the world that he would have a least interesting 1980s video game that doesn't work in his house. Not got to get that fixed.
Greg Cody
How long has it been broken, Greg?
Tony
It's been broken for years. Oh, like, not surprisingly. I need. If anybody out there knows somebody who.
Chris Cody
Fixes, that's the way to do it. Yes. Use our show for that.
Tony
Reach out to me.
Chris Cody
Good use of the content space. Way to respect the platform.
Tony
Michael has a high score, by the way. I think I'm second, folks.

Chris Cody
Don LeBatard.
Tony
He has been great. He's made great hires.
Roy
I said all we've said all he.
Tony
Said all the first time I heard any of this.
Chris Cody
Greg, everything you're saying, it's all been said.
Tony
Okay? You gotta understand one thing. Stugats me maximum.
Greg Cody
That's right.
Tony
I say it, it hasn't been said. Okay, Understand that until I say it hasn't been said.
Chris Cody
This is the Dan Levatar show with these two guards. Where's the me maximum? Like where? What did you guys do with the me maximum? It is not here. And I need, I need to get control of what's happening around here because his narcissism has run amok and I need to attend to somebody else's narcissism for a mom. Because Pablo Torre is sending out newsletters again about how many awards he's won. And I think we're all just, we're a little tired of his substack and his newsletters and his emails celebrating all the things that Pablo Torre is. As if he's bored by winning all of these awards. Chris, Cody, how has this gone over in the office? Because God bless football. Outside of Stugatz's weekend observations where he did a little bit of an acceptance speech, Stugatz and Billy haven't been running around telling everybody three of the last four years how many awards they win. This is an exclusive.
Greg Cody
Sounds like you've been there before, Dan.
Chris Cody
This Is is like an exclusive Pablo domain where he can't stop telling his listeners, subscribers and readers what an award winner he is. What is the latest newsletter from Pablo.
Mike Ryan
Say The latest one is just we want more stuff. It's pretty obnoxious.
Tony
I think.
Mike Ryan
You know, he's just bragging, just dunking on us. Did he send that personally?
Chris Cody
Why is he dunking on us?
Mike Ryan
Because that's, that's how I take.
Jessica
I would swat that shit.
Mike Ryan
He's talking about our show. What do you mean to me? That's him saying I won an award and you guys didn't. I look at it all through our prism. I don't know about you guys.
Chris Cody
No, I'm just looking at it as obnoxious. Like who else is out there telling you all the awards they won? It's not even. I don't know how you made it about us. You're your father's son, you cannot stop making it about yourself. I'm talking about strictly Pablo here.
Mike Ryan
They're feeling themselves. Matt Sullivan's walking around here with his chest out. He's, that's, he's like. That's right. More awards. Unbecoming important awards.
Tony
Tony, you don't hear me bragging about the awards that the great Cody show has won, okay?
Greg Cody
Exactly.
Tony
I mean, you know, because it hasn't.
Chris Cody
It hasn't won it.
Tony
That's not true. What awards is it not true?
Chris Cody
What awards is.
Tony
I mean they, you know, they certain give out certain awards that are very fine tuned. I happen to win the award for best podcast hosted by a Greg Cody.
Greg Cody
What are you doing?
Tony
Okay. And it's not the only one. There are others, believe me. But mine won the award like three or four, right? Well, no one, I mean, I see, I don't, you know, I was trying.
Greg Cody
To help you there.
Tony
Yeah, but nobody, nobody wants to hear that.
Jessica
I think, I think there might be a Tony award for Greg Cody later on this year.
Tony
By the way, the Tonys, that would be great. I would accept that.
Jessica
Thank you.
Tony
You have like a ceremony or.
Jessica
The Tony Show? The Tony Show, Tony Awards.
Mike Ryan
A gala.
Tony
Yeah, let's do that later on. Okay? A gala. PFPI gala.
Chris Cody
You guys were mentioning the dirty alleys of South Beach. Can you guys tell me, get me some details please on. Floyd Mayweather evidently is having a big birthday party that's going to include the Versace mansion. And it brought back a bunch of long ago memories. We are about to play a behind the bit for you here to celebrate our 20 year anniversary. That is hard network Out. It is one of the things that Greg Cody is most affiliated with as we do some nostalgic things around here over the course of a year long celebration on our 20th anniversary. But Floyd Mayweather evidently is having. It's not even. I don't know which birthday this is for him, but I think he's having a $5 million week long birthday party that's going to include the Versace mansion and where we used to be at the Clevelander. And I'm just wondering how you can spend $5 million in that area. I think stugats may have done it in bankrupting our original owners with a party at the Versace mansion a long time ago during the Super Bowl. It's the coolest we've ever been. Shaq's birthday party was there, but I think it bankrupted the company. I'm not totally sure and I don't understand what details can you guys tell me how you think you could spend $5 million on a 47th or 48th birthday party?
Greg Cody
Well, I can tell you that house for a week is a couple of million dollars itself.
Chris Cody
Like that's not right. That can't be right.
Greg Cody
I think it is Dan. He's going to be 48 by the way.
Chris Cody
That can't be right. It can't. It might be. It might have been then, it can't be now. There's just no way that house is a couple million dollars now. Maybe then during a larger heyday time of what that area was, but that area is not what it used to be. There's people in the back alleys giving blood and look like they're doing heroin in the Suburban of a car. It can't be of dollars a week in the trunk. I should say.
Greg Cody
I believe that you could probably purchase.
Mike Ryan
It for millions of dollars.
Greg Cody
That's what I'm saying. No, no, no, no, Chris. I'm saying you can rent it out for a week, take every single room so you have it to yourself. And I think it cost a couple of million dollars.
Chris Cody
It's the only beach house on a famous strip of land. It's a beach mansion that is worth. I'm sure that plot of land is if not tens of millions of dollars, possibly $100 million. But I don't think it's million dollars a night anymore to stay at the Versace. Dollars a week.
Jessica
41 and a half million dollars at auction.
Chris Cody
Okay, for the whole thing. For the whole thing. Yeah.
Mike Ryan
It's stay there for $1,000 tonight.
Greg Cody
Yeah, but that's one room Mayweather's not interested in a room. He wants the entire house, like we did for the Super Bowl. Like that's. And that's a different kind of cost. That's all I'm saying. Because you're purchasing every single room for a week.
Chris Cody
So the night that we were there, Matt Leiner and Eli Manning showed up too early. Matt Leiner was blasted out of his face. He was in the whirlpool by five people.
Greg Cody
Yeah. Eli was wearing a suit.
Chris Cody
Eli was there way too early. We told him. So he arrived. He was a little step. It was a good show. It was a good week. It was a good week of shows. Roy right now is searching deeply through the archives to find out what it is that can be found from that show. I remember telling Reggie Miller to his face that he wasn't a Hall of Famer. That one hurt.
Tony
Wow.
Chris Cody
Yeah. Boog made me do it while squeezing my knee.
Greg Cody
You did it, though, man. I was proud of you.
Chris Cody
I did do it.
Greg Cody
A lot of pressure.
Chris Cody
See if you can find that, Roy of Boog Sembi purposely actively trying to sabotage me because I said that Reggie Miller wasn't a Hall of Famer. Making me say it to his face. Also there. You know what I remember from that night? It was lovely. McCheesy from the longest yard. Terry. Terry Crews.
Greg Cody
Yeah.
Chris Cody
But he wasn't there. He wasn't that. He was just McCheesy on the longest yard back there. Oh, you've got it already, Roy. All right, go ahead and play it. Are you a Hall of Famer?
Greg Cody
No.
Tony
There's too many other guys that are more deserving than I. Levitar.
Jessica
Do you think he's going in?
Greg Cody
No.
Jessica
I think you are.
Greg Cody
Yeah. You're going in.
Chris Cody
Yeah. Good.
Mike Ryan
Good teammates you got there.
Chris Cody
Squeeze my knee while doing it.
Greg Cody
We knew what we were doing. Yeah.
Chris Cody
Just straight asshole.
Greg Cody
I had Nick Lachey call my wife from there.
Chris Cody
Yeah. Obnoxious. Just one of the most shameless things I've ever seen.
Mike Ryan
What a time.
Chris Cody
After ripping Nick Lachey, like, oh, just that day. Brutally scumming.
Greg Cody
Yeah.
Chris Cody
Just shameless.
Jessica
By the way, he is so back. Love his blind host. Him and his wife, like, they're doing a great job. Wife, not so much.
Chris Cody
Find out for me what Floyd Mayweather could possibly be spending $5 million on and why. Like, get me some details on what this birthday is going to be. I think we should send a correspondent out there next week to see how close. Like, what do you imagine that this is? What do you imagine? A Floyd Mayweather $5 million party that stretches out over a week to celebrate a birthday that's not even one that most of us would celebrate.
Greg Cody
Great. Bigger.
Billy Gill
Another duffel bag full of $10,000 to give to somebody to sit in a chair.
Chris Cody
That is small potatoes compared to what we're talking about here. That is something he has done in South Florida when a pool party is too crowded, somebody just reaches into a backpack and pays $10,000 cash. But this is a different. This is a different stratosphere. And by the way, this is Jake Paul before Jake Paul. And this is a man who has been a mastermind, even though he is pretty awful at the center of all the things he represents outside of his sport. He is a mastermind at being able to game. The system of boxing is dirty. And I will be the one who profits off of all the things that involve my name in a way that no one ever has in the history of the sport.
Greg Cody
For starters, Dan, he has invited 400 of his closest friends and family. Like he's going to spend 5 million pretty easily.
Jessica
Yeah, Travel obviously for, for wherever they're coming from. First class, I'd imagine. If you're.
Dan LeBatard
No one has four friends.
Greg Cody
I agree.
Jessica
Family, though.
Greg Cody
I agree with that.
Chris Cody
I don't know. Put it on the poll. Does anyone have 400 friends? 400 friends. I guess it would be friends and family though, right?
Greg Cody
It's 400 of his closest friends and family. You cannot have 400 close friends.
Mike Ryan
I guarantee number 398 is like, what the hell am I doing here?
Greg Cody
Who's 401 who didn't make the cut?
Tony
That's right, 401. That doesn't surprise me. The $5 million birthday celebration because a couple of years ago David Beckham's son got married and the woman he married was also from financial means. In other words, this was a power rich couple. And I'm told that that wedding cost about $5 million.
Chris Cody
It's not something that I understand and I imagine most of the people listening to this could understand the idea of being able to celebrate yourself that way. But if Greg Cody had million, he would find ways to spend it on celebrating himself.
Tony
What makes you say that?
Chris Cody
That way if you had, if you had $5 million of disposable income of, of if it didn't matter to you, if it was an amount of money that was irrelevant to you.
Tony
Yeah, you know what? I would, I would do a lot of purchases related to satisfying me. I would buy and bring back Lawton's hot dogs off the Merrimack River. In Lawrence, Massachusetts, I would probably own a radio station.
Greg Cody
Right.
Tony
And play the kind of music I liked. Just for a goof.
Greg Cody
Right. Just because you can.
Chris Cody
Right? Let's. Let's play this out. Let's play this out first.
Jessica
Bring Rick Shaw back.
Chris Cody
Hold on.
Tony
I love Rickshaw.
Chris Cody
Let's play this out for a second. Let's figure out, like, the old Richard Pryor movie, Brewster's Millions.
Greg Cody
How great movie.
Chris Cody
How can Greg. How can Greg Cody Cody spend $5 million on his party in a week now, on the. The Brewster's Millions conceit was that he couldn't own anything after the purchase.
Greg Cody
That's correct.
Chris Cody
So you.
Greg Cody
Very important.
Chris Cody
You can't buy a radio station and have ownership over it, but what you can do is spend all of this money in Greg Cody extravagant ways. I imagine that you would go bowling. Have we given Greg Cody the slab of Marvel? That is not a bowling ball from yesterday because it does not have holes in it. You've been sent a G gift from a listener that was said to be a bowling ball, but it's not a bowling ball. It's just something that doesn't have holes in it.
Greg Cody
Right.
Chris Cody
Have you seen this or not?
Greg Cody
Oh, Greg, you're gonna love this.
Mike Ryan
I know you guys are not really into bowling. Like, that's how all bowling balls come. And then you get it drilled.
Greg Cody
Yeah, get it. You get it customized.
Mike Ryan
It is a normal.
Tony
Oh, really?
Mike Ryan
All balls come with no holes. And you get your hand fitted to it.
Greg Cody
Okay, let's be clear here. A listener sent this to you, Greg. Look at that. That is yours, right? Wow.
Tony
I'm honored, Miller.
Mike Ryan
Like in there for you.
Tony
Yeah.
Chris Cody
See the other side? But it's not just it to him, it's. Look, it's your favorite team.
Greg Cody
Yes.
Chris Cody
It's your homer. Homer ball.
Tony
Right. I wish it had my podcast logo on it instead.
Mike Ryan
But we'll send it back.
Greg Cody
How about a thank you?
Tony
It's the thought that counts. And I really, really appreciate it. I really do.
Chris Cody
It sounds less than appreciative when you say, here's how the gift could have been better.
Greg Cody
In fairness to Greg, if you know Greg, you know he wants the logo of the show on the bowl. Yes.
Chris Cody
Yes, of course. That's what you know. But that's not. Thank you for the gift. I really, really appreciate it. Here's how it could have been better. Better. Someone sent you something for free. That was thoughtful. That is not gratitude, what you just articulated.
Tony
Yeah. Also, it's not my weight. It's a little heavy.
Greg Cody
Right?
Tony
I use a 15 pound ball. This is obviously a 16 by the heft of it, but again, it's a thought that counts. And I really appreciate when they drill.
Dan LeBatard
The holes out, though it could be less heavy.
Tony
Is my bowling ball. No, this is great. And I will have it drilled and I will use it so. So that, you know, the lady shouts storm NFL. The first time I'm on my backswing with this new ball.
Greg Cody
I'm thinking about the radio station that Greg goes, no.
Chris Cody
I want to stop for a second. Okay.
Greg Cody
Because 95. 9 the Cody we've lost Wcott horse.
Dan LeBatard
Belt Comedians on Tape.
Chris Cody
What I would like to stop and do for a moment because his narcissism has totally run amok is I want to exam a joke he just made because he's doing stream of conscious Tourette's in a way that only he finds funny. He's not heavy. He's my bowling ball.
Tony
Great song.
Chris Cody
Give me all the details, Greg, that you have. And please, Tony, Jessica and Chris, find me all the details you can on the song that Greg Cody is now referencing that it was an inside joke for just him and. And the three people Jessica's grandmother's age. Who wants or the kind of humor that Greg Cody brings with. He's not heavy. He's my bowling ball. Right, Go ahead, give the people what it is that you just did there so they understand the nuance and layers to that great comedy timing that is Greg Cody.
Tony
Well, there was and is because songs are eternal, a song called He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother. And it was from the hippie era, I think.
Greg Cody
The Hollies.
Tony
Yeah. And it was like a late 60s, very early 70s tune, if I remember correctly, espousing great brotherhood feel and vibes. And it was great and it still is.
Mike Ryan
That's crazy because to me that is just something my dad said. I didn't know that was a song my whole life. My dad always goes, it ain't heavy. It's whatever he's holding.
Tony
Have you.
Dan LeBatard
Have you never seen Austin Powers Gold? Member? Yes, I have parodied at the end of that song. He's not heavy. He's my brother, baby. I do Austin powers Dr. Evil spoiler. Sorry.
Chris Cody
What?
Tony
I do that every Christmas at least once. I'll go, I'll be holding up a package, a Christmas gift that I'm about to unwrap. And I'll go, this ain't. He ain't heavy. He's my package.
Jessica

Tearing up Tampa Bay 38 for 45 stugats.
Chris Cody
This is the Dan Levatar show with the stugats. Chris, why are you eating pancakes?
Mike Ryan
Thank you, Dan, for asking. Continuing my American breakfast. I'm having some nice pancakes here this morning. With no maple syrup. Butter only.
Chris Cody
Wow.
Mike Ryan
I don't mess around with that maple syrup. You don't need it. Butter's enough.
Chris Cody
Oh, no, it need. The pancakes. Need America.
Dan LeBatard
Syrup from, like, Vermont.
Mike Ryan
No, no syrup for me. Butter. That's it. Butter American. It should be.
Tony
I'm sorry. That was another.
Greg Cody
I thought you say butter bean.
Chris Cody
Craig, get out of here.
Tony
That was my son Michael's Nick nickname when he was a kid.
Dan LeBatard
Butter Baby.
Chris Cody
He's doing his own show.
Greg Cody
He.
Tony
Butterfinger.
Mike Ryan
No, because my.
Greg Cody
They would play.
Mike Ryan
No, no. They would play ping pong. They would play ping pong, and my brother would fumble the ping pongs, picking them up. And my dad would be like, hey, butter fingers.
Billy Gill
Finger Dan is giving up whenever you.
Mike Ryan
Can'T pick something up. Like, hey, Butterfingers. So my brother became Butterfinger.
Greg Cody
We've lost Dan.
Mike Ryan
I know, dad. You would turn it into a song. Do the Butterfinger song.
Tony
As to the tune of Chattanooga.
Mike Ryan
Yeah, we got it.
Greg Cody
Of course.
Tony
Glenn Miller Band. I believe, Steve. Not positive.
Greg Cody
Right.
Tony
That was Uncle Bill's. My dad's favorite group.
Dan LeBatard
Do they have any other songs? Is that their only song?
Tony
Not that I know of. I'm sure they do. You know, there was a big band touring. Big band. Glenn Miller, right?
Billy Gill
Not Steve Miller.
Tony
No, the Steve.
Greg Cody
Steve Miller Band. Different band.
Jessica
Great band, though.
Tony
The Glenn Miller Band.
Greg Cody
You're getting emotional, though. Just, you know.
Tony
Yeah. You know, that's the only song my dad used to sing around the house every once in a while.
Greg Cody
Oh, yeah.
Mike Ryan
I'm telling you, you don't need syrup with. With pancakes.
Greg Cody
You don't.
Tony
I don't think you do.
Greg Cody
In fact, I would say you're not having pancakes unless you're having them with syrup.
Mike Ryan
No.
Greg Cody
Yeah.
Chris Cody
Good.
Mike Ryan
With just butter. America.
Greg Cody
No.
Tony
Yeah.
Greg Cody
No.
Billy Gill
America.
Tony
We love butter. Butter and bacon. The two Bs love fat.
Greg Cody
I have some details on the Mayweather party, by the way. ATV tour, roller skating, nice bowling and more bowling. That's all I've got right now.
Dan LeBatard
Greg, you should try to get an invite for the bowling. Your new ball.
Tony
This could be my gift. No, I wouldn't give it away. Are you kidding me? I'm proud to have it.
Greg Cody
Don't you, Greg? Don't you think it's Easy to spend $5 million in a week if you have 400 friends, family coming?
Tony
Oh, for sure.
Jessica
And you're paying for everything in South Beach.
Tony
Right?
Greg Cody
Right.
Dan LeBatard
Greg, you just had a birthday and you already were like, ah, there's too many people here that I don't know know. We could have kept it smaller. Right.
Tony
I believe that. I don't think weddings need to be overpopulated. I don't think birthday parties need to be overpopulated. I'm all for winnowing and just having people there that are in your inner circle, so to speak. You know, I think a trend in weddings that I really hate is the bridal party and the groomsmen. Like, there's like nine people on each side of the couple. You know, not.
Greg Cody
You know, you got to narrow it down to like three.
Dan LeBatard
I told you, I. One of my friends had 16 groomsmen.
Tony
See that? Don't you think that's crazy?
Dan LeBatard
I think it's crazy.
Tony
It's absurd.
Dan LeBatard
And their bachelor party was like, you might as well have just invited your whole graduating high school.
Tony
It's too much.
Greg Cody
I did.
Jessica
Do remember you went to mine?
Greg Cody
I did.
Chris Cody
Okay.
Greg Cody
And the cruise was great. How could I forget if you have 16 people in your wedding party? Like, there's no one has 16 friends that are that close to them. Right? Nobody. And Mayweather thinking He has 400 friends. Those people are just coming because they were invited. Right. It's a free week and paid for. But 16 friends? What happened to just two or three friends?
Tony
Yeah, right? Yeah. When I got married.
Mike Ryan
Small.
Greg Cody
Keep it simple.
Tony
When I got married, I had a best man and a groomsman.
Mike Ryan
That's Paul Radke and Gary the Bag.
Tony
No, neither one. But, you know, correct era.
Dan LeBatard
Did either of them give speeches at your wedding?
Mike Ryan
I don't think either of them were at your wedding.
Tony
Oh, those two. Gary the Bag and. And Ratke. No, no, the Bag I might have invited had I thought of it.
Dan LeBatard
But wait, they didn't even go to your. Why didn't they go to your wedding?
Mike Ryan
My dad's a bad friend.
Chris Cody
He.
Mike Ryan
He really doesn't keep in contact with his friends.
Tony
No, that's true.
Greg Cody
Until he needs them.
Tony
Well, the bag. Gary the Bag and I re. Reunited. I'm proud of that.
Greg Cody
Right.
Tony
Ratke is. You know, I haven't known him for years, but my. My best man was Uncle Dick, and my groomsman was the. The late, great Alan Cherry.
Greg Cody
Huh. So if you got married again. Not that you're going to.
Tony
Right.
Greg Cody
Would you have, like, who would be your best man? Who would be your groomsman if you got married again?
Tony
I haven't. You know, I feel like it's a.
Greg Cody
Sliding scale with you. It's. Who's done the most for you lately. Well, I mean, it's like I may be in contention.
Tony
Yeah. I have no plans to get married again, so we'll. We'll call that a moot question and move on. That's a dangerous thing to ask a marriage man.
Greg Cody
Well, I'm not. I'm not questioning your marriage. I know it's strong. I'm wondering if your friends have changed.
Tony
Yeah.
Greg Cody
If you were to take a different.
Jessica
Approach, more of like a renewing of your vows. Right? You guys do it big, Right?
Tony
Right.
Jessica
You and Erlene, all of a sudden, it's like walking down the aisle just like it was in 1974.
Tony
Yeah. Right.
Jessica
And you look back and you see Uncle Dick there, still your best man.
Tony
Yeah. He could still do it. Am I the only one who doesn't like the whole renewal of vows set thing?
Billy Gill
It's got to be a big anniversary.
Greg Cody
I'm with you.
Tony
Isn't it unnecessary, though?
Greg Cody
We did it once.
Tony
Yeah, we did it once.
Greg Cody
Why am I renewing?
Mike Ryan
I mean, you turn into Seinfeld. We did it once.
Tony
I mean, the first time you say till death do us part, Right? You know, you don't got to repeat yourself.
Dan LeBatard
Why do people do? I know my grandparents did it for their 50th wedding anniversary, but it was more so like an excuse to just have a 50th wedding anniversary party. And there was, like, a little church element.
Mike Ryan
Can I renew my vows whenever I want? Like, me and my wife, we just look at each other, each other. Renewed.
Tony
Yeah.
Jessica
Hey, how long?
Mike Ryan
That's it. Like, eight years.
Jessica
No, you can't do it on. On an odd number like that. Even though it's an even number, you can't do it. An odd number.
Mike Ryan
It's got to be like.
Jessica
Yeah, 20, 25.
Tony
Exactly.
Greg Cody
But why do you have to do it?
Tony
You don't have to.
Greg Cody
But why do people do it? For the party?
Jessica
Gotten in trouble?
Dan LeBatard
Maybe it's for the party.
Mike Ryan
Who around here is most likely to do it, you think from our career?
Dan LeBatard
Dan.
Greg Cody
Dan.
Chris Cody
Dan.
Mike Ryan
I can see Tony doing it.
Billy Gill
You'll do it tomorrow.
Chris Cody
Me?
Jessica
Me and my wife have talked about doing it. Going. Taking everybody to Hawaii. Doing it in Hawaii on the beach.
Dan LeBatard
You guys definitely have, like, cute for each other, right? Yeah.
Jessica
I call her bb.
Dan LeBatard
Bunny is one of our other co workers.
Greg Cody
What does she call you?
Jessica
B.B.
Greg Cody
Oh, okay. Sorry.
Jessica
The same one.
Dan LeBatard
So Lee and I call each other Bob and Bob, which is basically like BB but with an O.
Mike Ryan
And Leman.
Dan LeBatard
And I do call Le. I call him Lehman now.
Tony
And Roy.
Mike Ryan
Any pet names?
Billy Gill
Like why I call it Baby.
Greg Cody
Baby.
Billy Gill
I love that she calls me Roy.
Tony
There you go.
Jessica
Don't love that as much.
Tony
She calls me Roy.
Jessica
That feels like you're perpetually in trouble, though, if she calls you by your first full name. Like, whenever I hear Anthony, I know I'm.
Chris Cody
I don't know.
Mike Ryan
It's not like trouble.
Billy Gill
It's not like she's my mom. Like going, Roy Anthony or something like that.
Tony
Right?
Billy Gill
The middle name in there.
Greg Cody
Yeah. Would you like a pet name or.
Billy Gill
Nah, I'm good. Please don't give me a pet name. I don't need that. Thank you.
Greg Cody
What's yours? Come on. Chris.
Mike Ryan
My wife calls me babe.
Greg Cody
Right. And Kyle.
Tony
I.
Mike Ryan
At the beginning of our relationship, I may have thrown around the word pookie.
Dan LeBatard
Oh, Pookie's looking fabulous tonight.
Mike Ryan
So it stopped.
Tony
That's a pet nickname.
Mike Ryan
I just started sweating, revealing that. And I've revealed a lot of stuff. I don't know why I'm so embarrassed by that.
Billy Gill
She doesn't listen well.
Greg Cody
Why? Pooky's a cute name.
Mike Ryan
Feel like a loser?
Tony
Yeah.
Billy Gill
What?
Greg Cody
You have feelings? You don't want the listeners to imagine you calling your wife Pookie.
Mike Ryan
Not really.
Greg Cody
Huh.
Dan LeBatard
Greg, do you have a pet name for your wife?
Tony
None that I would admit, no. I'm just. I'm not a pet nickname guy, cuz.
Dan LeBatard
Pet means fart in your house, right?
Mike Ryan
He left.
Tony
That's true too.
Greg Cody
Right?
Tony
Yeah, that's. I didn't even thought of that, actually.
Jessica
Jumping Charlie. That's your pet name right there.
Tony
Yeah, exactly. If. If I have pets, I give them names. That's a pet name. I don't bother with calling my wife anything other than her name. Quite frankly.
Greg Cody
Never honey or anything.
Tony
Yeah. You know, every once in a while. Who is it, baby? You know?
Mike Ryan
What about that? In the throes of passion.
Greg Cody
Baby.
Mike Ryan
Look at Jason smirking back there when I brought up passion. Nice.
Greg Cody
Because names change in times of passion.
Tony
They do.
Greg Cody
They go on.
Mike Ryan
Go on.
Greg Cody
Well, I mean, you'll just. You'll say anything.
Jessica
I mean, you will say anything.
Mike Ryan
That is like, come here, my little firecracker.
Chris Cody
Wow.
Tony
Firecracker.
Greg Cody
I've said it.
Tony
Firecracker. Good.
Greg Cody
Guess that's my pet name. Little firecracker record. Anyway, this is all you're doing Greg?
Chris Cody
Yeah.
Billy Gill
It's your fault.
Tony
I can't remember how this came up.
Greg Cody
It came up because we were talking about you.
Tony
Okay.
Greg Cody
Yeah. How's the bowling ball?
Tony
It's a little heavy on my leg quite frankly.
Greg Cody
Is it really?
Tony
Yeah. I don't know if I can use it. I've never used a 16 pound ball, but what's a 15? I'm used to. So you know what's one pound?
Greg Cody
Right? It's a nice ball though.
Stugatz
It is.
Tony
I like the color. I like purple. It's a Brunswick, which is a good name in. In bowling balls.
Greg Cody
So it's the only name in bowling balls.
Tony
Oh, there's a. There's others now. There's a million others. Hammer AMF I think is still around.
Greg Cody
But you want a Brunswick.
Tony
It's like it's the Cadillac.
Greg Cody
Like having Taylor made or ping. Right?
Tony
Yeah. I mean it's. At least it was the. The Cadillac when I first started bowling Pre kids.
Mike Ryan
Is the Cadillac the Cadillac of cars anymore?
Greg Cody
No, no.
Tony
But you still say the Cadillac. What is the Cadillac?
Dan LeBatard
Cadillacs.
Greg Cody
I don't know of cars.
Tony
Bentley.
Billy Gill
No, no, no. You're talking American cars. Maybach, right?
Greg Cody
We are.
Mike Ryan
We're not talking Canadian cars, I'll tell you that much.
Jessica
Do they have cars?
Tony
What?
Jessica
Do they have Canadian cars?
Mike Ryan
They have a Hyundai.
Dan LeBatard
Don't they manufacture Honda parts for our American?
Jessica
Yeah, but they don't have like a car that's made in Canada like a.
Dan LeBatard
I think American cars are sometimes made.
Jessica
No, no, I know, I get that. But we're calling them American cars. But there are. Are there Canadian cars?
Tony
I think there are, I believe.
Mike Ryan
Yeah, but it's like Kia from Canada.
Greg Cody
No, that's, that's not Korean from Canada.
Jessica
That's what I'm saying. There's no car brand.
Mike Ryan
Could be a.

Hosts: Dan Le Batard, Stugotz, Chris Cody, Greg Cody, Mike Ryan, Tony, Billy Gill, Jessica
The episode opens with the hosts delving into Greg Cody's recent personal challenges. Greg shares his experience dealing with significant stress following his brother's passing, which led to a substantial weight gain—50 pounds [08:04]. He discusses his commitment to holistic health practices as a means to combat rising cortisol levels due to prolonged stress.
Greg Cody [08:04]:
"I've gained 50 pounds... it's just all sitting by that bed for 10 months."
The conversation highlights Greg's efforts to maintain his health through acupuncture thrice a week and regular blood donations conducted in unconventional settings, prompting both concern and humor from his co-hosts.
Chris Cody [08:17]:
"If someone saw it happening, they would think I was doing heroin in the back of a suburban with somebody who was administering it clinically."
A significant portion of the discussion revolves around Floyd Mayweather's upcoming extravagant birthday celebration at the Versace mansion, rumored to cost $5 million. The hosts speculate on how such a sum could be spent over a week, considering the high-profile nature of the event.
Greg Cody [22:07]:
"He has invited 400 of his closest friends and family. Like he's going to spend 5 million pretty easily."
The conversation compares Mayweather's party to their own past experiences, emphasizing the scale and opulence involved. They debate the feasibility and the social dynamics of hosting such a large and lavish event.
Chris Cody [19:40]:
"I think he's having a $5 million week long birthday party that's going to include the Versace mansion and where we used to be at the Clevelander."
The hosts shift focus to Pablo Torre, criticizing his persistent self-promotion through newsletters and Substack updates highlighting his numerous awards. They express fatigue over Torre's continuous bragging, contrasting it with their own approach to accolades.
Chris Cody [15:38]:
"This is like an exclusive Pablo domain where he can't stop telling his listeners, subscribers, and readers what an award winner he is."
The discussion underscores the tension between genuine achievement and perceived arrogance, questioning the impact of constant self-promotion on an individual's reputation.
Mike Ryan [15:50]:
"The latest one is just we want more stuff. It's pretty obnoxious."
Returning to Greg, the hosts explore his ongoing health initiatives, including regular blood donations and acupuncture. They highlight the skepticism and teasing Greg faces from his peers regarding his unconventional methods.
Greg Cody [08:38]:
"I'm doing an assortment of things... to get rid of those sort of cortisol inflations."
The banter emphasizes the camaraderie among the hosts while also shedding light on Greg's serious commitment to improving his well-being amidst personal turmoil.
Jessica [09:31]:
"I'm trying to do whatever I have to do through whatever holistic medicines I can to get rid of those sort of cortisol inflations."
The episode balances serious discussions with light-hearted banter about personal preferences and humorous anecdotes. Topics include:
Bacon and Pancakes:
The hosts engage in a playful debate over the best way to enjoy bacon and pancakes, sharing personal habits and preferences.
Chris Cody [03:31]:
"I am having an American breakfast, though. Some OJ squeezed and some bacon. Some American bacon."

Mike Ryan [39:00]:
"My wife calls me babe."
Tony [39:26]:
"I don't bother with calling my wife anything other than her name."
Bowling Stories:
Greg receives a unique bowling ball as a gift, leading to jokes about its customization and weight.
Greg Cody [25:58]:
