Transcript

[Mike Ryan]

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila.

[Dan Le Batard]

Cuervo.

[Mike Ryan]

What are you doing here? Cuervo? Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true. But even during ad reads like Cuervo, I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners.

[Dan Le Batard]

Sweet, delicious Cuervo.

[Mike Ryan]

Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion.

[Dan Le Batard]

Cuervo.

[Mike Ryan]

So enjoy the tequila that started it all. Cuervo.

[Dan Le Batard]

Cuervo.

[Mike Ryan]

The tequila that invented tequila. Proximo. Cuervo.com please drink responsibly.

[Dan Le Batard]

Cuervo. 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?

[Jonathan Zaslow]

I'm sorry.

[Tony]

I'm not gonna apologize for that.

[Dan Le Batard]

In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's FR that if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys.

[Mike Ryan]

I've done it.

[Dan Le Batard]

And now here's the marching man to Nowhere, Fat Face and the Habitual Liar.

[Tony]

This episode of the Dan Lebatard show is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings. The Crown is yours.

[Dan Le Batard]

Oh, yeah. We welcome in David Sampson. Nothing personal with David Sampson is the show. You listen to it every day. You catch wherever you get, podcasts on DraftKings Network, on YouTube, wherever you are, find yourself listening to stuff. And, David, we got a lot to get to. The greatest world series of all time. All that stuff. I know usually we hold the movie, talk to the end, but I did want to include you in this conversation we had right before you came on about the Running Man. Tony just found out that it's a reboot. He asked, should I watch the original one?

[Tony]

He didn't know anything about it.

[Dan Le Batard]

He didn't know anything about it. We had to teach him about it. But he asked, should I watch the original one? Would you, as a movie aficionado, suggest that he wait to watch the old one after he watches the new one, or to watch the old one first and then watch the new one?

[David Sampson]

I'm not going to be that guy because I don't want to turn into my father where I say the original is always better. You got to start with the original. No, no. I'm new age, man. I'm young now. Forget the original. Go with the new one. Forget the original. It's old it's 1980, something like seven. It's so long ago, you probably weren't even alive. So screw it. Just forget arnold, forget Dick Daw, and go right to G.P.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Oh, but I like Arnold, though.

[David Sampson]

Well, okay, then watch that one first. But don't you good. There's no way this remake. So I have a question that I'm asking myself, which is, am I even gonna watch this one? Am I. It's like me watching Colin Farrell, who I love, but I'm really taking the time to watch Total Recall and I did, and I regretted it. Am I going to take the time to watch Russell Brand in Arthur? Forget it. I'm a Dudley Moore guy. But I did it. And the new ones are never as good as the originals.

[Dan Le Batard]

Manchurian Candidate, the new one was better than the original.

[Tony]

Oh, it's a good movie.

[Mike Ryan]

Done.

[David Sampson]

So that is interesting. So there are examples, but I think that that that one, the original Manchurian Candidate is. Is a different even generation than authors and the total recalls of the world. So in that case, I'm with you. Where I would always prefer the new ones just because it makes me feel more current. But when they're redoing movies from the 80s, yeah, it makes me insane.

[Tony]

David Christopher Nolan does amazing movies, but would you agree that Tenet is a piece of.

[David Sampson]

No, I think that he did that. It just wasn't received well because no one understood it.

[Tony]

Probably a key element to making a movie.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah. With Zaz, did you understand it?

[David Sampson]

I did not understand it. But that is not directly correlated to whether I love something because I leave movies often where I have to ask my girlfriend, hey, what just happened? Or I don't understand a whole lot of stuff that goes on. And I don't necessarily use that as my sole barometer. I have an appreciation for that movie and what sort of the movie of it, the technical movie of it, without understanding it at all.

[Tony]

I don't agree.

[Mike Ryan]

I mean, his explanation was even more confusing than the plot. It's a bad movie. If you. I mean, that's a word salad. It's a bad movie. And what are your thoughts on John David Washington as a performer? I know he had blackkklansman. That was well received, but in terms of stretching his chops after that, he is. He is a failed leading man. And the box office has spoken on that with pretty finality, I think.

[David Sampson]

Oh, it may not be finality, but they certainly have spoken. But Mike, I would ask you, do you have to like a piece of art in the Louvre to appreciate the Fact that it is great art.

[Mike Ryan]

I like ambition.

[Tony]

You have to at least understand it.

[Mike Ryan]

I. Yeah, understanding it. It was so convoluted. It was a real Christopher Nolan. He check. I thought, and it probably. It probably worked against the film's best interest that there wasn't anybody in there because he has such creative power saying, this is way too damn confusing even for you. And I also think they got the lead switched up. I don't think the lead was as charismatic. Maybe if you had a more charismatic lead, people would care about the main character more. I ended up caring more about the supporting cast.

[Dan Le Batard]

Mike, I'm going to tell you right now, this is something I've held for the last maybe five, six, seven years. I used to always, oh, a movie comes out and then the director's comes out. Yeah, show me the version that the studio haters didn't want us to see. So what's a little longer?

[Mike Ryan]

Give me that Snyder cut.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah, give me the raw uncut, right? And now I'm like, man, the studio is right, man. These guys need editors. They need editors. Otherwise it's just like Fever dreams. David.

[David Sampson]

Yeah. So I never minded seeing things or reading things that I didn't understand and just appreciating the quality of them. Like with poetry, hard for me to understand. Shakespeare, hard to understand. But you're just appreciating what you're reading. As I said, art movies are the same for me. I just love a bunch of action sequences, action movies where I really don't understand what's happening. It doesn't make sense. I can't keep track of characters. Like in. There was a recent show I watched Mobland.

[Dan Le Batard]

Oh, yeah, Mobland.

[David Sampson]

But I'm not sure that I really remembered which characters were what and who was doing what to who and hating who. But I still appreciated it as a great piece of, you know, seen Pierce Bros. And James Bond, by the way. Zaz outrage that you've never seen a B movie.

[Tony]

I know.

[David Sampson]

Stupid to me, actually, I even said.

[Tony]

It'S not like I'm. I'm not seeing it because, oh, I'm not into it. I know I would like them. I know it's. It's embarrassing. I get it.

[David Sampson]

I just don't understand the concept of knowing that. That's what threw me off in the first hour. When you know you like something and then still don't do it. That is maybe the poorest reflection on going after your own hedonism that I've ever heard.

[Mike Ryan]

How about this?

[Jonathan Zaslow]

As I'm going to Read you a little synopsis of Skyfall for James Bond. Daniel Craig. Right.

[Tony]

Okay.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

James Bond's loyalty to M is tested when her past comes back to Haunter. When MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how much the personal same.

[Tony]

Yo, I like that. That sounds good.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

The same day, not all of them.

[Tony]

Say, I like that.

[Dan Le Batard]

It's the British version of Mission Impossible. Right?

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Another go to franchise.

[Dan Le Batard]

Another goated franchise. But also, I. I walk away sometimes thinking to myself, in your defense, as like, what was that movie about? I don't remember. I don't remember what Ghost Protocol was about. Mike. Mike will remind me.

[Mike Ryan]

He was disavowed.

[Dan Le Batard]

He was disavowed again.

[David Sampson]

Oh, do you not get that?

[Tony]

Is that the one where Henry Cavill does the cool thing with his fists?

[Mike Ryan]

No. Oh.

[David Sampson]

One of the great things about Bond movies is that when I. It makes you realize sort of where you are, what you love, what you don't love. Maude Adams was one of. Along with Shannon Tweed, I would say, are the first two examples. Well, there was a movie called Hot Dog the Movie. One of the worst movies you'll ever see, except it was fantastic. And Maude Adams was in a Bond movie called Octopussy, which was mentioned by Tony early in last hour. And that's a movie you just see, because how do you not see it when you're 13 years old and instead of studying your half Torah, you're watching Maude Adams and trying to figure out how the world works?

[Dan Le Batard]

So.

[David Sampson]

So I think that, Zaz, you have an opportunity to do something with your kids, to open them to a world of greatness. And I think you should start, like, during COVID I'd never seen a Marvel movie or a Harry Potter movie, and I w. Lord of the Rings, and I watched them all during COVID I think you have an opportunity right now during the government shutdown, since you can't fly. I think you have an opportunity to watch every Bond movie with your children.

[Dan Le Batard]

American Airlines has buses now, by the way.

[Tony]

I do. I don't know if we're talking about the same one, but I know about that.

[David Sampson]

Yeah, it's a big story. I mean, especially for you. Going back and forth. It's. It's an absolute nightmare, everyone figuring out which are the 40 airports that they're going to cut the flights. And the good news is the faa, the department, the head of the department said, we're doing this proactively. We're not going to react to plane crashes. We're going to try to avoid them by delaying flights and canceling flights. Right? Yeah, I thought that was super nice of him.

[Dan Le Batard]

10% of flights are getting cut back while this shutdown is going on in anticipation of the increased travel during holiday season, which is right upon us. They're saying, oh, show up to the airport early to find out that my flight got canceled.

[David Sampson]

No, you'll know in advance. But there's one rule that you can learn by watching the West Wing or you can learn just by living that. Like an air traffic controller strike or a government shutdown. Those do not fly. Or that's a misuse of that word.

[Mike Ryan]

Good job.

[David Sampson]

You can. Thank you. You can't use have that happen during the holiday period. October is generally a slow month for travel, so things aren't insane. But come Thanksgiving, you can bet your keister that this will be taken care of because the airlines will not in any way accept a reduced schedule during holiday travel.

[Dan Le Batard]

Do you think it gets resolved. You think the shutdown gets resolved before Thanksgiving?

[David Sampson]

Yeah, it has to. It absolutely.

[Tony]

I thought I read that they. People think it's going to be back this weekend.

[Dan Le Batard]

Really?

[David Sampson]

I guess I think that the pressure is being brought to bear. So how is everyone? Everyone reacts the same way. If it doesn't affect me, then I don't care. It's. You know, we had election day this week and the in the results, Miami was especially horrible about voter turnout where such a small percentage of people use their right to vote, which makes me insane, obviously. However, I would tell you that it is a very big deal to have a government shutdown only when it starts impacting citizens. And air traffic is one of those things that starts impacting people when they want to see family during the holiday time period.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Zaz, you know about that? Specter, a cryptic message from James Bond's past sends him on a trail to uncover the existence of a sinister organization named Spectre. With a new threat dawning, Bond learns a terrible truth about the author of his pain at his most recent mission.

[Tony]

Yo, that sounds good. I like that.

[Mike Ryan]

It was. It was city of Miami and Hialeah, basically local governments that just exist for sports owners to extort.

[David Sampson]

But still 20% of eligible voters showing up, I think you'd have to agree, is a number that should be embarrassing to you.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

It's also super old people that live in both cities.

[Dan Le Batard]

Right?

[Jonathan Zaslow]

So it's not like a massive Miami thing like Kendall doesn't have voting. I love Kendall, my man.

[Dan Le Batard]

I love.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

You should be mayor of Kendall.

[Tony]

I want to be Would you consider.

[Dan Le Batard]

That if they put a zip line at the top of the elsewhere. Absolutely.

[Mike Ryan]

We will never incorporate.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Thank you.

[Mike Ryan]

We will never.

[Dan Le Batard]

Unincorporated, probably.

[Mike Ryan]

Yes. Unless a sports owner comes along and wants to extort us and promise us.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

The world or the water park at Metro Zone.

[Mike Ryan]

That's big on the docket. Then we're willing to listen.

[David Sampson]

Don LeBatard. We love you. We've got you. We've all got each other. Let's go right now. Stugarts. 1, 2, 3, Brett. 1, 2, 3, brett. This is the Dan Le show with the Stugach.

[Mike Ryan]

Are the Tigers really gonna deal?

[David Sampson]

Scubal if they're smart, they would.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, if they're smart. This guy seems amazing. And he pitched lights out for them. They got it to the playoffs. Why? Why would this be a smart move, getting rid of one of the game's best arms?

[David Sampson]

Because this is when he's at his most valuable the year before free agency. And I'm not saying they'll get it right. Because it's possible that they'll trade for Miller and Mabin and they won't work out. And it's possible School will be an MVP and a, you know, a Hall of Fame guy. However, you have to maximize your assets. And trading players a year too early is way better than trading them a year too late. And you can turn school right now, you can turn him into way more than school. Especially with pitching injuries that are happening left, right and center. The ability of pitchers to sign long term. Only a few teams want to do it. Nobody should do it. So that's the whole goal. When you've got assets, whether it's stocks, whether it's currency, whether it's players, whatever it is that you're quote, unquote, trafficking in. The key is to sell high and buy low. And there is no higher selling than Scuba out of Detroit right now.

[Mike Ryan]

But aren't they a contender?

[David Sampson]

Yes.

[Mike Ryan]

So why, why, why do that? Is it not. I know it's not.

[David Sampson]

They're going to get major league pieces. They're going to get depth. They're going to get an opportunity. They were at school had I. It's like second straight.

[Mike Ryan]

Yamamoto, get out of here. Like, I don't understand. It's counterintuitive to a team that's like, pretty close.

[David Sampson]

Well, as I recall, he won Cy Young's two years ago. I believe he's going to win this year. He's a finalist. He's going to win. That'll be two Cy in a row and a total of zero World Series, zero lead, championship series appearances. So in baseball, having a Cy Young winner is amazing. Having a number one starter, hard to find. But guess what? It's time to churn. If you're the Tigers because you're not going to have a top five payroll, you're not going to be able to sign him long term, very likely, therefore maximize what you're going to get from him.

[Dan Le Batard]

David in basketball we see a lot of monkey see, monkey do. People see success and then they try to emulate the success. In baseball we went through this phase where everyone's like, starting pitcher doesn't matter. We're just going to have bullpens, guys are going to pitch four innings and then we're just going to cycle through. And now the Dodgers came out and they won a World Series basically on the backs of starting pitching. Do you anticipate a shift in philosophy back to the importance of the starting pitcher?

[David Sampson]

Well, really what you're seeing to mean is what the Dodgers did is something called load management, which had never happened in baseball. Before baseball, there were times when you're playing guys 160 times. Sometimes you had what was called a Sunday lineup. So guys would play six days, but sit the seventh day like they're resting for Shabbat. What the Dodgers did is they went full Billy Eppler, they secreted people away on the injured list and all of a sudden the pitchers were healthy and ready to roll for October and they were fresh as tomatoes on the side of the the highway. So I think that's what's going to be copied. Baseball is very much a monkey see, monkey do sport. When that started with the shift that starts with all sorts of things, I think next year and it's going to be a CBA issue, you are going to see load management all of a sudden become a topic of conversation because that's really what the Dodgers did.

[Dan Le Batard]

Speaking of cba, I was fascinated. This is probably about a week ago you were on the sporting class and you got a lot of heat for what you talked about the WNBA cv.

[Tony]

Yeah, people are mad at you.

[David Sampson]

God dang, that was crazy. People just don't get it. But that's okay, go ahead.

[Dan Le Batard]

But I, I, this is one of those times I'm like, yeah, I'm, I agree with David. I, I feel like the WNBA is experiencing this massive explosion in fandom, which is awesome, but it's a fandom that is not familiar with some mechanics of professional sports. And one of them is collective bargaining agreement negotiations and this idea that they could just Walk in. Well, the man get 50%. We get 50%. I'm like, that's not how negotiations work in some way, David. I don't think they understand that the men and women who are negotiating in that boardroom don't care about winning Twitter and threads.

[David Sampson]

They care about funny thing.

[Dan Le Batard]

Care about money. And it's like, I'm not just going to give you money. Oh, it's a little embarrassing for me every time I open up this app. Am I we just cynics, David, or what's happening here?

[David Sampson]

Well, no, people got angry because they thought that I made up the fact that the women were asking for the same percentage of revenue that the men were asking for. And I got that from the people who are negotiating there. And Pablo actually came out and tweeted the passage that showed where I got my information from. And here's what I was trying to explain to the people who believe this is the moment for the WNBA and the women who believe the same thing. This is not your moment. Here's what it's your moment to do not get where the NBA is because you're ignoring the reality of the WNBA's finances. Forget expansion fees. Forget Caitlin Clark. The reality is the WNBA is not in even remotely close to the same position as the NBA, and therefore there will not be the same cba. However, what the women have the ability to do that. I would argue the men do not. The women have the opportunity to just leave.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah.

[David Sampson]

86% of the players in the W A NBA are free agents. Do me a favor. Go join Maverick Carter. Go to plan B. It may not be called plan B. That's the thing that's dating. I can't believe I just got that wrong. It's. It's called something like plan B. I don't know why that second option, Dave.

[Dan Le Batard]

Second option, David. It doesn't even matter what they go to, because you've got the European leagues where many of them make the majority of their money. You've got China. You've got the unrivaled. Unrivaled.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

You.

[Dan Le Batard]

You have a. A plethora of options that, unlike. Would it happen to the NBA that. Where we'd say those other options don't pay as well. These options all pay better.

[David Sampson]

So I don't understand the whole concept. And you saw a player just today and now, of course, please help me. I forgot the name of the player and I forgot the name of the league, but it is Maverick Carter's women's league that he's starting where she's a former mvp and she announced that she's going to go play for this league. What the WNBA needs to decide right now is, and both the players and management is, are we an entity that has the ability to continue to grow and continue on a path which they've never been on. They've never proven that they can be successful either on the court or off the court. Is this the time where the WNBA says that we can be a going concern, number one, and number two, we can be the best in the world because that's what Major League Baseball is, That's what the NFL is, that's what the NBA is, That's what the NHL is. WNBA is not that. And in order to do that, it's more than just paying the players more. It is the question of. Is the concept of women's professional basketball. Is that the possibility of only having a monopoly of one major league which pays the most? And what's proven over the last two and a half decades?

[Dan Le Batard]

No, the players. Neca Gulmike, she is the sister of Chanel Gumaque, who's on ESPN a lot. And Neca is signed with the. The league is called Project B.

[Mike Ryan]

Project.

[David Sampson]

So I was thinking Project X, which is another movie that Zaz hasn't seen.

[Tony]

You see Project X. I've seen that. So Michael Jordan. No, that's not the one with Michael B. Jordan.

[David Sampson]

Matthew Broderick. I thought it was Matthew Broderick, but I could be wrong.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Oh, that's the thing with. Where Buddy has a house party.

[Tony]

Yeah.

[David Sampson]

And then his family.

[Tony]

That's what I'm thinking. What's that? Yeah, what's that movie called?

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Project X.

[Dan Le Batard]

Project X. He's not in that movie.

[Mike Ryan]

Miles Teller is.

[Dan Le Batard]

Miles Teller is in that movie. Yeah.

[Tony]

And Michael B. Jordan.

[Dan Le Batard]

My man, My man, Dax Flame is in that movie. Shout out to Roy.

[David Sampson]

What am I thinking of? Am I having a moment here?

[Mike Ryan]

You're thinking of the Matthew Broderick movie.

[Tony]

That involves a war game.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Z.

[Mike Ryan]

No, no.

[Dan Le Batard]

There's a project. There's a Project X movie with Matthew Broderick. Yes.

[David Sampson]

Thank you. Okay. I feel way better right now.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Speaking of movies, Zaz, you know about no Time to Die. James Bond has left active service. His peace is short lived when Felix Leiter, an old, old friend from the CIA turns up asking for help, leading Bond into a trail of mysterious villains armed with dangerous new technology.

[David Sampson]

I think you're screwing him, Tony. I think you ought to be reading about for your Eyes Only. You ought to be telling him about Christopher Walken. You ought to be telling him about Grace Jones.

[Dan Le Batard]

That's a View to a Kill.

[David Sampson]

Yeah.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Great song, too.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Duran Duran.

[David Sampson]

Duran Duran, baby.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

What do you know about Duran Duran?

[Tony]

I know about Duran Duran.

[Mike Ryan]

You do? Yeah.

[David Sampson]

Can you name two members of the Duran Duran Band?

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah, Duran and Duran. Roberto Duran and Jalen Duran.

[Tony]

But Tony, tell Roy just in case.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Just in case what?

[Tony]

In case he doesn't know Duran and Duran.

[Dan Le Batard]

Did you put it on the poll? Can you name two members from Duran Duran? Can you name one member of Durant Duran?

[David Sampson]

This is impossible to believe, that no one's going to come up with Nick Rhodes or Simon lebon. Is it really possible?

[Dan Le Batard]

Yes, I would guess, Mike. I would have. If I had the money.

[Mike Ryan]

I would say Simon lebon.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Where's Duran?

[Dan Le Batard]

Where's Jalen Dern?

[David Sampson]

There is no Duran in Duran Duran.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

What?

[Tony]

What?

[Mike Ryan]

Then who's Duran?

[David Sampson]

It's just Duran Duran.

[Tony]

False advertising.

[Mike Ryan]

Great way to make people believe that you knew all along is just say a name in the tone of Paul.

[Dan Le Batard]

Rudd, Simon Le Bone, Kevin Durant. Kevin Durant. David. Chris Greer got fired. You believe that it's a move, but it's not the move.

[Tony]

What does that mean?

[Dan Le Batard]

What's that mean?

[David Sampson]

Oh, thank you for letting me talk about the Dolphins on your. On your non local hour. Because Stephen Ross was under so much pressure as an owner, because on this show I believe I posited that he's the worst owner in the history of South Florida.

[Dan Le Batard]

Really?

[David Sampson]

And that's saying something, given where ownership has been in South Florida. He hasn't won one playoff game in the 18 years that he's on the team. Not one. Not one. But he has created a ton of value using public money. Mike Ryan, plenty of public money that he has used to build his fiefdom out there near wayne's world with F1 and tennis and all the other stuff. He's done plenty of public money, even though people don't talk about it. So the team stinks over and over again. Poorly spent money, unable to find a way to get something together. What do you do? You have a GM and a coach. Both of them need to go. The coach is lost. You go to his press conferences. You speak to local media who are going there and looking at him and listening to him. The guy sounds like a babbling idiot. And that's what happens when you come off as quirky, when you haven't yet proven whether or not you're great. And then once you're not great, the quirkiness becomes babbling. Idiocy. And that's where McDaniel is. So the question is, why would you get rid of greer and not McDaniel? Well, because you're in the middle of a season where something good might happen. No, the Dolphin season is over because you still believe that McDaniel has the locker room. Who cares? It's so overrated. He doesn't have the locker room because they're not winning. My view is you do a clean sweep and you show your fan base that you are going to bring in a bill parcels type. You're going to bring in someone and give them total control over all football operations from start to finish, including coach drafts, everything. The problem is Stephen Ross may be pushing up daisies. I'm not wishing. But he's not young. And so does he not have time for what is required other than what the Dolphins do, which is get mired in mediocrity. Is it possible he doesn't feel he has the time for a complete redo? Because what firing Chris Greer was, was like, you know, putting a band aid on a, you know, three inch, three deep cut. Don Levator, Taytas, Stugats. Taytas. This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugats.

[Dan Le Batard]

We got Mike McDaniel's latest press availability this year.

[Mike McDaniel]

They've beaten us because they've scored more points and done the right football things longer than we have in those games that, that we lost. You know, I think that that's the measure of a good football team is being able to win. You know, particularly. There's been a couple score games. I like sitting right here as of late that.

[Dan Le Batard]

Hold on, let me keep going.

[Mike McDaniel]

We've lost.

[Mike Ryan]

I don't think I want to do this.

[Dan Le Batard]

You don't want to hear them kind of like critical stutter his way through this. Excuse me.

[Mike Ryan]

No, this is your play. This in get.

[Mike McDaniel]

Wish you could have them back play fourth quarter.

[Mike Ryan]

No, we can't.

[Mike McDaniel]

Anticipating that.

[Mike Ryan]

We know where it's going. Fade it down. Can't do that. What do you know about.

[Dan Le Batard]

I would say this, by the way.

[Mike Ryan]

I was told that that was a seven minute clip. I can't do it.

[Dan Le Batard]

You know. You know what he looks like when he's talking right there? He looks like you talking about the canes the other day. Zero eye contact with anybody. Just. Yeah, but the head is moving so much.

[Mike Ryan]

It's tough as I as someone that also is well known across this great land as being a face of a program. Monday was tough, I'll tell you.

[Tony]

Tough show like can you imagine? Can you imagine? That's because that's how he sounds. It's how he sounded from the day he got here. Can you imagine if this the bad team was the first couple of years that he was here as opposed to them doing the winning like how do you survive sounding like this?

[Dan Le Batard]

You don't.

[David Sampson]

They teach you in law school when you are presenting to the jury or to a judge that it's okay to be silent and people use and as verbal crutches and it's unbelievably difficult to listen to. And he the coach of the Dolphins is the number one guy with the. It's brutal.

[Dan Le Batard]

I'm curious. Which law school did you go to, David?

[David Sampson]

I went to Yeshiva University Cardozo Benjamin and Cardoza School of Law.

[Mike Ryan]

That's not a real school.

[Dan Le Batard]

Benjamin Cardoza is a high school American school.

[David Sampson]

It's a high school in New York Law school.

[Dan Le Batard]

That's what skipped to my little thank you Benjamin Cardoza high School man shout.

[David Sampson]

Out to you said it's not a real law school. Is that you, Mike?

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah. It doesn't sound like one.

[David Sampson]

Okay.

[Mike Ryan]

I don't know that fool.

[Dan Le Batard]

What movie are you reviewing for us today, David?

[David Sampson]

So I I went to a theater first time I've been to a theater since COVID because I needed to see one battle after another.

[Tony]

I mean don't you want to support movies? You haven't been to a theater since.

[David Sampson]

Oh, I support movies. I spend 1999 and I get movies when they're streaming. I'm going to do this weekend. I'm gonna do plenty of that is Cardoza School of Law in New York City and you can actually go through for those of you not watching on the Dan Levitard YouTube channel there are tremendously. You can look I was even chairman of the board of this but there are amazing rankings of things that we do clinics. The Innocence Project with Barry Sheck started there. Mike Ryan. That is where DNA is used to clear people unjustly in prison.

[Mike Ryan]

I'm sorry, I didn't know Barry Sheck was affiliate. You know about that Innocence Project is my. That is my mistake. Just. Just so you know Enron has a website do crazy things do they these days. Yeah. There's like a fake Enron that's like a whole like I was trying to make a point and the point is.

[Dan Le Batard]

Like one of my favorite one of my favorite things I remember business school. They said we should have known that they were crooked because their logo was a crooked E. I'm like, oh, it's right in front of us. It was right in front of us. No, but, David, you. You. You said one battle after another. You saw in the theater, Right?

[David Sampson]

So I did go to a theater, and I was struck by two things. One, I was able to sit through 2 hours and 41 minutes. No phone, no eating, and no talking of any kind. No distraction. And it's a long movie. Now, I did purposefully choose a theater that had those seats that recline. That was important to me because I didn't think I could sit in a regular folding chair for 2 hours and 40 minutes. Because why.

[Tony]

Theaters don't have the stadium seat.

[Dan Le Batard]

Everyone's got the. The recliner.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Not everybody.

[David Sampson]

That is not accurate.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

There's a couple of them out there.

[David Sampson]

Not in New York, at least. So what this movie did is it got me from the first minute, the opening scene of this movie. And I think people underestimate. You've got, like, three minutes in this day and age. And James Bond is one of the great examples. The opening of James Bond movies. You're done, you're hooked. It is set right before he comes on and shoots the eye blood. You've got yourself an action movie.

[Tony]

Spoilers, David. All right, fine.

[David Sampson]

The spoiler of the intro to a James Bond movie. No, there's no spoilers. So this is a movie that. There is some obvious political parts to this movie. It is about a group of people who are trying to create havoc, and they create havoc in illegal ways, and they create havoc due to certain policies that they do not agree with. I am not in favor of people who are willing to sacrifice their freedom because there are better ways to accomplish what you're trying to accomplish. But Leonardo DiCaprio plays the part of someone who gets caught up in doing things that are against the law, has to go into hiding, and ends up having to take care of a child. And it is a perfectly made movie that has a chance, I mean, to give Paul Thomas Anderson an Oscar. That's how good I think it is. Now. There's a lot coming out. This is the time of year. This is right now, coming out soon, right from now until the end of December. We are about to see some amazing movies in terms of Oscars getting ready for the March ceremony. However, this movie is going to be nominated for best Picture. I believe Leonardo DiCaprio has a very good chance for another Oscar nomination and maybe even an Oscar victory. That's how good he was. But there are a lot of performances left to see. But if you can get past sort of the political side where this day and age, people can't get past it because they take a position and then close their ears and close their brain. If you can get past that. The movie itself is phenomenal.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

James Bond willingly inserts himself into an assassination plot involving a naive Russian beauty in order to retrieve a Soviet encryption device that was stolen by the evil specter organization from Russia with love.

[Tony]

That sounds good.

[Mike Ryan]

He inserts himself into a couple things. Hey, James.

[Dan Le Batard]

Nothing personal with David Sampson is the show. Thank you, David, for joining us.

[David Sampson]

Thank you guys, very much.

[Dan Le Batard]

Awesome. Guys, it's time for me to issue an apology for something I said on these very airwaves this week. Earlier this week. Where's my camera? Right here. Earlier this week. Here's my camera, my one shot. Thank you. Earlier this week, I said some rude and disparaging remarks about a particular app that swept the nation named Sora. I said it was cheap and poorly done and none of the videos ever came out good. I thought I provided multiple examples of such cheap titude. Then this morning, I discovered I was wrong because I saw something made on Sora that made me completely change my mind. All right, so you guys know about this whole Jaylen Brown thing that's been happening? Happening, right?

[Tony]

Yep.

[Dan Le Batard]

Jalen Brown runs into somebody og Anunoby Keisha George, and, like, his hairline rubs off on them.

[Tony]

Yeah.

[Dan Le Batard]

Someone made this on Sora. Oh, nice fall. Disney and Pixar present a story about a man who couldn't help to rub off on others.

[Mike Ryan]

You just get paint on me, bro.

[David Sampson]

That's all my jersey, Jayla.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

My bad.

[David Sampson]

Maybe it's time to accept the who you really are.

[Mike Ryan]

Yo, is that hair dye receding?

[Dan Le Batard]

I was wrong.

[Mike Ryan]

I told you.

[Dan Le Batard]

You guys say Amin never admits when he's wrong. I was wrong.

[Tony]

It happened again last night.

[Dan Le Batard]

It happened again last night. Yep.

[Tony]

Celtics at wizards got his hair all over Buddy's jersey.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Hair?

[Dan Le Batard]

I mean, well, it's not hair. It's.

[Tony]

He wants you to believe it's hair.

[David Sampson]

Why?

[Tony]

I don't know.

[Dan Le Batard]

First of all, like, I just. I feel like, first of all, there are a lot of options. I know I'm privy to some of them where it's like, they don't rub off. Right. It's not just the regular Beijing. There's stuff that you could put in there, and it stays and it's waterproof.

[Mike Ryan]

He's got that party city. He's got that party city. I don't know what's going on there.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah. But number Two Jaylen Brown. You had a whole summer. Go to Turkey, go to Colombia. Hell, they do it here, albeit way more expensive.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

You got the money?

[Dan Le Batard]

You got the money. You can make that junk happen.

[David Sampson]

Man size.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

You're bald.

[Tony]

You're bald.

[Dan Le Batard]

Had you ever thought about that? A little turkey trip?

[Tony]

No.

[Dan Le Batard]

What if someone said I'm a generous benefactor?

[Mike Ryan]

Hold on. Yeah, you did radio for quite some time.

[David Sampson]

Sure.

[Mike Ryan]

You got some proposals.

[Tony]

Oh, well, I mean, yeah, no, I did stuff one time. I didn't have anything involved with turkey.

[Mike Ryan]

All right, what was it? What was the thing that you did?

[Tony]

Yeah, yeah. What was it called?

[Dan Le Batard]

What was it, like a temporary.

[Tony]

Yeah, so you rub the shaving cream. You know, you rub the cream on your head. It didn't work.

[Dan Le Batard]

Well, that's what I'm saying.

[Mike Ryan]

What was your promo code?

[Tony]

Probably Zaz.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah. I went to Miami Subs Grill one time and I said, zazlow sent me.

[Tony]

Oh, yeah, I used to have a good buffalo chicken. That's right. Look at that right there. Zazlow's buffalo chicken.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Philly 529. What a deal.

[Tony]

Yeah, that'd be $20 today. Inflation.

[Mike Ryan]

It's not our fault.

[Tony]

How about that? Look at. Look at that sandwich right there. In. During the photo shoot there.

[Dan Le Batard]

I mean, is that a soda, by the way?

[Tony]

I don't know. I didn't drink. Sound drink soda. But during. During the photo shoot, you know, we're coming up with all different kinds of ways for me to, you know, pose, whatever. They wanted me to hold the sub up like this. We're not.

[Mike Ryan]

You knew that Sora would exist one day.

[David Sampson]

Dangerous game.

[Mike Ryan]

Look at you, fresh faced, not yet broken. By Len Weiner or mornings.

[Tony]

I was doing mornings at the time.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah. Zaz again, generous benefactor comes down, says, jonathan Zaslow, I would like to fund your hair restoration process.

[Mike Ryan]

Would you do that if someone promised you, like.

[Tony]

Like, is it a cream or. I'm doing one of the.

[Dan Le Batard]

We have.

[Mike Ryan]

We have this new partner. Say DraftKings comes up to you. We have. We have this new partner here.

[Dan Le Batard]

My name is the Draft King.

[Mike Ryan]

It's a hair restoration. They'll fly you to Turkey.

[Dan Le Batard]

We'll fly you first class. Whole new skull, five star hotel. The best dining you've ever had.

[Tony]

I'll be honest with you.

[Dan Le Batard]

No soda.

[Tony]

I'm totally cool with. With how I look. Like, I'm totally cool with this.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, you look great.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Yeah, but what if you had hair?

[Dan Le Batard]

If you had hair. Yeah, but. But you know what?

[Tony]

Then I got to explain to everybody, like, everybody would Be laughing. Oh, you did an operation? I get.

[Mike Ryan]

Come on.

[Dan Le Batard]

No one's laughing at that. No, dude, no one's laughing at these operations. There's. Oh, he did it. Like, everyone's excited.

[Mike Ryan]

The code is. Just be honest with it.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah.

[Mike Ryan]

Now Landon Donovan looks ridiculous.

[Dan Le Batard]

His didn't work.

[Mike Ryan]

I mean, have you seen the most recent one?

[Dan Le Batard]

Well, yeah, he's like. Now he's like, should I shave it?

[Mike Ryan]

Like, it's a system now.

[Dan Le Batard]

He did a whole, like, Instagram series on, like, I think I should. Should I come home and stuff. And all these people. Charlie. Charlie Davies and all these guys, like, come on with it. Let's go.

[Mike Ryan]

People have been open and honest about it. Joe Buck has been honest about it. And, I mean, I think his hair looks better now than it did before. And no one's like, that guy got hair transplanted. He tried to be cute with that.

[Tony]

No, but I can't just all of a sudden have a head of hair, Mike.

[Mike Ryan]

Yes, you can.

[Dan Le Batard]

Hold on, Mike. I'm a. There's a line. There's a dividing line. There's the befores and the afters. Joe Buck and these guys all did, like, the old technology that would.

[Mike Ryan]

Oh, now it's way better.

[Dan Le Batard]

Now it's way better. You look at, like, what, Matthew McConaughey or Ryan Reynolds.

[Mike Ryan]

He still says that he hasn't gotten a hair transplant.

[Dan Le Batard]

Ryan Reynolds.

[Mike Ryan]

Ryan Reynolds hasn't come out and said that. But he definitely got the guy from Kingsman.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

What's his name?

[Dan Le Batard]

Oh, my God.

[Tony]

Taron Egerton.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

You know what? That tearing.

[Tony]

Yeah, I like Kingsman.

[Dan Le Batard]

You watch Kingsman and not.

[Tony]

Yeah, those movies are good.

[Mike Ryan]

I mean, it's based on all derivative of James Bond.

[Tony]

So you tell me. I don't need to see Bond.

[Mike Ryan]

Did you watch Austin Powers? Did you watch Austin Powers?

[Tony]

Yes.

[Mike Ryan]

Did you get the jokes? Did you get this?

[Tony]

I'm realizing now that I probably didn't get all the jokes.

[Dan Le Batard]

Oh, look at Landon.

[Mike Ryan]

As long as you're honest, with the rare exception of Landon Donovan, as long as you're open and honest and upfront with the people on social media. I'm not trying to pull one over on you.

[Dan Le Batard]

He's honest.

[Mike Ryan]

I'm not trying to get one. Yeah, but that one just looks especially ridiculous because we've just known him for so long. He first on the scene in 02.

[Dan Le Batard]

I don't support this. I'm gonna say this right now.

[Tony]

Well, what don't you support about?

[Dan Le Batard]

So what he did is because he tried. He tried implants the implants didn't work. So he's doing the hair system, which is basically. You see on the left, he's got the fine bomb. They shave it down, they put glue on the top of his head, and then they take someone else's hair and they stick it on top and then they style it.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Isn't that just a piece?

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah, but it's glued to the top of your head.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah. We call.

[Tony]

It's one of those system.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah.

[Mike Ryan]

Be upfront. If you have a system like no one, you're not trying to get one over on. On folks, that's where. That's where you get made fun.

[Tony]

I definitely would not do that.

[Mike Ryan]

That's where you're like Bill Self. That's where you're like. I don't know why. I'm afraid to say Ravi does it, but, you know, like, don't do it.

[Dan Le Batard]

Don't do it.

[Mike Ryan]

There was one moment there was a video where, like, he had a duck because a foul ball was. It was coming at him. I'm like, this would have been the funniest way to find out the hair.

[Dan Le Batard]

Was still up here. But he's down, so. Jonathan Zaslow, you will not take up my generous offer.

[Tony]

Do I have to go to Turkey?

[Dan Le Batard]

I will fly you first class in one. They say go to Turkey, and first class international is not like them chairs.

[Tony]

Emirates. I'd like to fly.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yes, A little apartment.

[Tony]

I've never flown Emirates before. I'd like.

[Mike Ryan]

Well, it's fly. Fly Emirates.

[Tony]

I'd like to fly. Fly Emirates. I'd also like to fly Virgin, but.

[Dan Le Batard]

Haven'T done that in a while.

[Mike Ryan]

Oh, you get perks there.

[Jonathan Zaslow]

Not with your algo.

[Dan Le Batard]

I got good algo.

[Mike Ryan]

You were playing golden eye.

[Mike McDaniel]

Liar.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah, go on.

[Tony]

No one's out of here.

[Mike Ryan]

Have you seen Mission Impossible?

[Tony]

At least I told you what I was doing. Yes, I've seen all the mission.

[Mike Ryan]

All of them. I don't know.

[Tony]

I told you, I like the one where Henry Cavill does the thing with his arm. You didn't even know that was fallout.

[Mike Ryan]

Fallout. Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila.

[Dan Le Batard]

Cuervo?

[Mike Ryan]

What are you doing here, Cuervo?

[Dan Le Batard]

Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.

[Mike Ryan]

Well, I do know that to be true. But even during ad reads like Cuervo, I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners.

[Dan Le Batard]

Sweet, delicious Cuervo.

[Mike Ryan]
