1. Dodgers' Early Season Performance and Fan Engagement

The episode kicks off with a spirited discussion about the Los Angeles Dodgers' impressive start to the season. David Samson expresses both excitement and frustration over the fans' behavior, particularly their eagerness to obtain limited-edition bobbleheads.

• David Samson [03:33]: "I'm fired up that their fans are so ridiculous that they waited online for a bobblehead that was being given away to all fans in attendance."

Samson criticizes the logistical challenges posed by the high demand for merchandise, questioning the necessity of fans waiting in long lines when not all promotional items are genuinely available.

• Jon Weiner [03:58]: "If you give to every fan, why wait online?"

The conversation highlights the fine balance between fan enthusiasm and organizational capacity, with Amin Elhassan advocating for recognizing the Dodgers' excellence as a reason for such passionate support.

• Amin Elhassan [05:42]: "There's a baseball team that is so good, that has a player who's so popular that the fans show up early and wait in line..."

2. Impact of Tariffs on Sports Merchandise

Transitioning from fan behavior, Jon Weiner delves into the broader economic implications affecting the sports world, specifically how tariffs impact the cost and distribution of merchandise like bobbleheads.

• Jon Weiner [07:01]: "These tariffs that were imposed actually impact sports and sports teams in ways as well. Like bobbleheads. Bobbleheads just got more expensive."

He details the complexities of importing goods, from shipping to storage, emphasizing the increased costs and operational challenges faced by teams.

3. MLB Team Relocation and Stadium Development Concerns

The discussion shifts to the Oakland Athletics (referred to as the "ATHS") and their potential relocation, exploring the hurdles in building new stadiums amidst rising material costs and logistical constraints.

• Jon Weiner [10:21]: "With building new stadiums at the moment or even refurbishing ones, all the increased expense of metals and materials that flows down to a budget for these new stadiums and arenas."

Amin contemplates the feasibility of developing support infrastructures like "village" areas around stadiums, drawing parallels with other cities' experiences.

• Jon Weiner [10:54]: "You want to get that ancillary revenue."

4. Saudi Investment in Global Sports: The LIV Golf Phenomenon

A significant portion of the episode examines the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund's expanding influence in global sports, using LIV Golf as a case study.

• Jon Weiner [12:46]: "Saudi Arabia won. They tried to make it so that the conversation was not about the way they treat people and the human misogyny and death and murder."

He critiques the concept of "sports washing" and its normalization through substantial financial investments, questioning the long-term sustainability and ethical implications.

• Dominique Foxworth [14:31]: "Bryson DeChambeau, you could argue, is now the most popular golfer in the world, period."

The panel discusses the mixed outcomes of such investments, noting that while some players benefit financially, others face backlash or fail to achieve projected success.

5. Ja Morant's Gun Gesture and NBA's Response

A contentious topic arises around Ja Morant’s recent gesture interpreted as a gun salute, sparking an investigation by the NBA.

• Amin Elhassan [15:43]: "So, David, I do have a question about how the... How you or the league would handle this Ja Morant gun gesture thing..."

Jon Weiner seeks clarity on the nature of the gesture, uncertain if it's a cultural expression or a direct association with firearm symbolism.

• Jon Weiner [16:10]: "That's actually not sort of a gun salute type thing. I don't know the answer."

Dominique Foxworth contextualizes the gesture within contemporary youth culture and media influence, drawing parallels with other athletes and cautioning against its potential societal impact.

• Dominique Foxworth [19:25]: "I don't get it, David, man. You just want to be angry, be happy."

The panel debates the appropriateness of the gesture, its reception among fans and sponsors, and the broader implications for athlete conduct and league policies.

6. Panel Dynamics and Light-Hearted Interactions

Throughout the episode, the hosts and guests engage in playful banter, reflecting the show's signature humor. Topics range from personal anecdotes about attire to nostalgic references about past sports moments.

• Dominique Foxworth [29:26]: "Ah, that's a lot better than missing. Well, actually, making a layup on your own basket and your father walking out of the game."

Such interactions provide a balance to the heavy topics, showcasing the camaraderie and dynamic chemistry among the panelists.

7. Concluding Remarks and Takeaways

In wrapping up, David Samson offers contemplative insights on the fluctuating emotions tied to sports victories and setbacks.

• David Samson [23:21]: "The likelihood that either one of them will win or lose 116 games continues to be low. Therefore, when you're feeling so good about something and conversely, you're feeling so bad about something, just know that feeling is what gives you the frame of reference when things get better."

Dominique and Amin reflect on Samson's remarks, highlighting the importance of maintaining a balanced perspective amidst the highs and lows of sports seasons.

[Amin Elhassan]

Why are you listening to this show?

[Jon Weiner]

The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan LeBatard podcast?

[Amin Elhassan]

I'm sorry, I'm not gonna apologize for that. In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries.

[Dominique Foxworth]

That if they're just there.

[Amin Elhassan]

That hasn't happened to you guys.

[Dominique Foxworth]

I've done it.

[Amin Elhassan]

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

[Chris Cote]

This episode of the Dan Lebatard show with Stugats is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings. The Crown is your oh yeah, you.

[Amin Elhassan]

Can catch Pitch Clock Later Pitch Clock later with Jeremy if you want to, but right now we got my man MVP of the last time I did a week stint down here. David Sampson. What's up, David? How are you, buddy?

[Jon Weiner]

I am bursting at the seams right now. I'm drinking tea because I can't swallow. Exactly. But I'm watching the stock market plunge. I'm watching tariffs increase. I'm watching companies panic. I'm watching Mike Scher as the baseball expert of Metal Arc. Are you guys kidding me? Jeremy, seriously.

[Amin Elhassan]

I do have a question, though. So today we start the show with you talking about how, I guess your throat hurts or something. Yesterday, you start the show. Do you remember what you said and introducing yourself yesterday? You said something about your bottom being clean.

[Jon Weiner]

My bottom is fresh.

[Amin Elhassan]

What does that mean? You took a shower.

[Chris Cote]

Today's bursting at the seams.

[Jon Weiner]

So at the end of, I'll tell you. You know, Dominique, I have no secrets from you. I do nothing personal. Live from 8 to 8:50am and during the course of the show, I build up sweat because I'm sitting and talking. So what I do in between shows is I freshen up.

[Amin Elhassan]

All right, David. So the Dodgers off to a, A and O start and show. Hey, I hit a walk off last night. What about the Dodgers is so. Yeah. You are so strange. What about the Dodgers has got you a fired up right now, buddy.

[Jon Weiner]

I'm fired up that their fans are so ridiculous that they waited online for a bobblehead that was being given away to all fans in attendance. What happened there? Why do you have to wait in line?

[Amin Elhassan]

Why do you hate fans? That's awesome. Like, they're excited. They're excited.

[Jon Weiner]

What? But do they have that much time on their hands that they're happy to stand in line? You know, listen, if you're the Marlins and you only give away 5,000 bobbleheads because that's the most sponsorship you can get. And you know you're going to have a turnstile of 10,000. That means 5,000 people aren't going to get it. And here's a funny little side note. We don't actually give away all 5,000. We keep a pallet for ourselves and our employees and the player and to give away if there's customer complaints, but nobody ever counts that. But if you give to every fan, why wait online?

[Roy Bellamy]

So you're mad that fans are actually coming to the stadium on time? This is a shock.

[Jessica]

He just can't fathom it.

[Amin Elhassan]

Amazing.

[Jon Weiner]

It's not. They're not on time. They were early, okay? And they were doing it because the Dodgers, previously there were not enough photoni. Bobbleheads for everyone. And the Japanese sponsors said, we don't want unhappy customers, we want to pay for bobbleheads for everyone. Don't you think it should have been communicated that you don't need to wait online?

[Amin Elhassan]

I think that you, like sometimes something happens and then people have a genuine reaction to the thing that's happening. That reaction could be positive or negative. I believe that you wake up in search of things to be mad about. They are so good. There's a baseball team that is so good, that has a player who's so popular that the fans show up early and wait in line and somehow I give you an opportunity to talk about how awesome this team is, how they're 8 and oh and they could possibly surpass 13 and oh for the first time since, I guess 2023, which would be incredible.

[Jon Weiner]

What does that matter?

[Amin Elhassan]

No, it's a. What do you mean, what does it what?

[Jon Weiner]

No. If you're going to talk Dodgers a no, you should be saying to yourself, can they catch Seattle? That's really the intrigue. And the fact is they only have a half game lead on the Padres. Or that the NL west has only lost three games outside of the Rockies, who don't count. What a tough division. What an exciting division. But how despondent would you be to be 80 and only have a half game lead? It really is something. But can A team catch 116 wins when they're over under on DraftKings was 103 and a half. Is there a way to check what the current over under is on DraftKings? Yeah, it's called the wind total change. Obviously when you're eight. No, I assume the win total for the season changes. I wonder if it's reached 116 yet.

[Amin Elhassan]

But don't you think it's exciting and interesting to have some sort of chase something to be excited about? You just said that this team should be despondent. This is a case in point. They're 8 0. And you said how despondent would you be? You're the the only person on earth, David, who would somehow wake up having never lost a game with your giant star pitcher. Slash slugger hit a walk off home run, first pitch, walked out there. That was some cold. And you somehow are like they should be despondent. Despondent. I don't get you, David, man. You just want to be angry, be happy.

[Jon Weiner]

I'm, I'm, I mean I'm not happy with what's going on, but I'm so happy that we can Be distracted by doing the show and not watching what's happening in the markets right now. And the reality of, of what really what the tariffs mean to the sports world. It's a big story. And obviously we talk about companies and cars and manufacturers. These tariffs that were imposed actually impact sports and sports teams in ways as well. Like bobbleheads. Bobbleheads just got more expensive. I promise you that. Because they're not made in the US of A.

[Amin Elhassan]

What?

[Jon Weiner]

So. Oh no, they are not. They get on big, big, big ships and they come across the water and then you have to get them through customs and then they're in big pallets that get delivered, 50,000 of them to Dodger Stadium. The size of those pallets, people are. It's incredible when they get delivered and how you have to store them before you give them away. And then the forklifts, you need to bring them to the different gates. It's a whole thing that happens.

[Jeremy]

He's legitimately excited about this part of it. Not about the Dodgers start, but just about like the process of the pallets making their way from Long beach up the Chavez Ravine.

[Amin Elhassan]

You are like a bomb sniffing dog for uninteresting. Like I lay out the most interesting possible topic and you just let me find the part that can bore them. Let's talk about tariffs and pallets of bobbleheads.

[Jeremy]

So let me re angle. This is a team that should be despondent, right? Which is the Athletics of God knows what city that they play in the sacrifice.

[Jon Weiner]

You're not allowed to say.

[Jeremy]

They're not allowed to say what city. It's just the Athletics.

[Jon Weiner]

Right, Just the Athletics.

[Jeremy]

So the Athletics who are playing in Sacramento but are not the Sacramento Athletics playing in a minor league stadium that seats 14,000, they couldn't even sell that out for opening day.

[Jon Weiner]

Well, that includes 3,000, like standing room down the line. So they did sell out all the actual seats, but because it's a triple A stadium, there's a bunch of places you can go to engage with the game but not actually have a seat, which doesn't work well when it's 100 degrees outside in the middle of summer. But I think what the ATHS are really despondent about is the fact that will they be in Sacramento three years or four years? What's going on in Vegas? Can they get that ballpark built on time? Budgets now are a nightmare. Think about this. With building new stadiums at the moment or even refurbishing ones, all the increased expense of metals and materials that flows down to A budget for these new stadiums and arenas. And it's going to have quite an impact on pricing. And the public doesn't pay the overruns. The owners do. Which is why owners are saying, oh, I'm not so sure I want to build this ballpark without more public money.

[Jeremy]

But then you're stuck in this weird situation. And I have to imagine that the footprint of that facility, David, does not generate money in a way that a major league stadium does. Even an outdated major league stadium that the one that they left in Oakland.

[Jon Weiner]

You talk about in Sacramento or are you talking about Vegas?

[Jeremy]

I don't know.

[Jon Weiner]

Both. That's the interesting part. Right now teams are looking to build villages like St. Louis did, like Atlanta did, like we wanted to in Miami. And it didn't work. You want to get that ancillary revenue. Yeah, but don't forget the deal with Vegas is only for 9 acres, which by the way, isn't even big enough to have a ballpark.

[Jeremy]

That's right, because it's right there. The corner of Tropicana and. And Las Vegas.

[Jon Weiner]

It's right. It's right down there. There's no room.

[Jeremy]

Yeah.

[Jon Weiner]

And so all of the ancillary development goes to the going bankrupt bally, not to John Fisher and the aths. So the whole deal is problematic in that regard. And for Sacramento, how do you make an investment when you're in a temporary city? Are you going to build a village around a Triple A park? And then when the village is open and ready for business, you're already gone from Sacramento. That doesn't make sense. So you're just going to end up with nothing.

[Jeremy]

Okay, I just realized that I too am a bomb sniffing dog for uninteresting topics. I saw everyone check out on this conversation. David are excited to talk about this.

[Jessica]

Like, geez, let's talk about the tariffs again.

[David Sampson]

That hell's the ass, I'll remove myself.

[Amin Elhassan]

All right, all right.

[Chris Cote]

And I know what he's talking about.

[Jon Weiner]

But who says that's what you have to call them? Chris, if you look at box scores, well, that's what mlb. MLB sends out a book every year of how teams are referred to nicknames. A pronunciation guide. And this year we were all told that it's the aths. And if you look at box scores, it'll say athletic instead of A's or oak or sac.

All right, David, I'm time.

[Chris Cote]

Thank you, David.

[Amin Elhassan]

A couple other topics that I'm gonna throw out to you. I'll give you a choice. And we're gonna do our best to find the interesting in both of these. So Ja Morant's gun gesture in the league is currently investigating that. Or we could talk about the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund, their involvement or their deeper and deeper involvement in global sports and how we at one point we're all up in arms and we're crazy about LIV Golf. And now you look up and they have 340 plus global sponsorships. They're going to be hosting the World cup in 2034. And it seems like they're going to start entering more and more. They've been in and soccer teams in Europe and they're going to start entering the NFL through private equity funds and other sports in America. So those are your choices. Let's find the interesting.

[Jon Weiner]

David, you can't call it sports laundering anymore, can you? It's just sort of normal. Saudi Arabia won. They tried to make it so that the conversation was not about the way they treat people and the human misogyny and death and murder. So instead they just keep investing money and then it becomes normal. And they knew it and we fell right into it. And the LIV golf is such a great example. When LIV golf started, Greg Norman was the CEO. It was going to be this behemoth. They signed all these players, gave him all this guaranteed money. And now Brooks Koepka comes out and says, man, I thought we'd be further along. I thought this would be better. And then the new CEO comes out and says, I don't know what anyone's talking about. We're doing great. We don't need the PGA because we've got Saudi money and we've got the world. We don't have the U.S. but the U.S. that's like FIFA saying, man, I wish the U.S. were better. They don't really need it.

[Amin Elhassan]

But no one's watching it though. Like it feels like just because they have the Saudi backed money, it has not necessarily been a success. And it's an odd situation where it also at one point is not doesn't feel like it's a success, but also the people who stood up against it don't feel like they are benefiting. It's weird in that I like ro. Rory McElroy doesn't feel like the champion that we thought he was. Going to be when he decided not to do it. And the golfers who went along with them seem to be surviving just fine. They're not. There's no backlash from it. It's weird to think that if you think of it in three different parties as the group that wanted them out in players, the group that wanted to be with them and live themselves feels like the only team that or the only group that's actually succeeding is the guys who we kind of characterize as selling out a bit and like helping the sports washing right.

[Dominique Foxworth]

I think it's.

[Roy Bellamy]

I think it's even beyond that. Bryson DeChambeau, you could argue, is now the most popular golfer in the world, period. And he's. There's rumors that he would even leave live and go back because he's basically made a pot from it. His public perception, he had zero social cost. He had a social benefit from reinventing himself on YouTube and not being on the PGA Tour every week.

[Jon Weiner]

And I think you have to realize, Dominique, that that was a pretty nationalistic point of view. Because Liv would tell you there's a lot of people watching live. They're just not in the US but they have major broadcast deals around the world. Yeah, it's bad time in the US when you're in Australia or when you're in Singapore, but not when you're in Australia and Singapore. So I think that when they look at their media revenue, their non US Revenue, it's damn good.

[Amin Elhassan]

Yeah. Well, I'm giving an American point of view because last time I checked, I mean, I don't know, this might change. I'm American. I'm in America. This is what I care about. We are bringing in Jason Goff to support me now because we had to kick Amin out. Cause he was siding with David on these boring topics. But.

[Dominique Foxworth]

I want to explore David's damp bottom some more. I probably shouldn't have said that sentence at the beginning.

[Chris Cote]

Introduction to today's Internet lives forever.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Exact clip it.

[Amin Elhassan]

So, David, I do have a question about how the. How you or the league would handle this John Morant gun gesture thing is like, I understand how important it all is or how important the way that the league presents itself is, but it does feel odd. I don't know if odd is the right word that we're calling this an investigation. Like, what are we doing? It's either get a man a fine or move on. Like, I don't. I don't quite understand it.

[Jon Weiner]

Yeah, I want to be careful here. And I want to get this right. Is that and this is, I'm happy to admit what I am, which is middle age and white is what he did an expression that is commonly associated with guns or is it a celebratory thing that you do when you score or do something? Right. That's actually not sort of a gun salute type thing. I don't know the answer. And I assume that's what the investigation is. And are other players doing it too?

[Dominique Foxworth]

Well, you know, we're old, David.

[Amin Elhassan]

Yeah.

[Dominique Foxworth]

And all three of us, Dominique. So what we see now, more so is when people are taking pictures. Young people, especially some of them, like to make the handgun gesture and you know, let you know that, you know, I keep it loaded even though no one is shooting anyone with handgun gestures. I don't. The problem I have with it is who has John Morant seen this work for, Right? Like, like after a while you gotta, you gotta study the behavior and think, oh, I've seen this work for Jordan, I've seen this work for LeBron. And even if you don't want to be those people, look at Isaiah Ryder's career, like, look at certain careers where you're like, maybe I want to stay away from this. And if his goal is to make as little money off the court as possible, then knock yourself out, player. But I don't get it. You know, I got an eight year old son, I try to teach him certain things. I'm sure John Moran's dad has tried to teach him certain things. But once a guy gets this position and has been emboldened by as much money and also the talent that he carries and the impact that he has on that city, you just gotta hope he grows out of certain things. But the gun gesture thing, probably, I mean, I remember when Chris Webber was doing a throat slash and people were upset with that. So I don't know how this is ever going to work out in his favor, except for the people who are telling him it looks cool on the outside.

[Amin Elhassan]

The funny thing is like, I'm hesitant. Obviously. There's plenty of people to talk about how ridiculous it is. It is. Does clearly seem like it's like assault rifle gun gesture. Like, I don't think I understand. I appreciate David, you acknowledging that. You may not be sure, but it feels like it falls specifically in that category. But I also think about John Morant and I think Zion falls in this category also. And Anthony Edwards falls in this category. I complain often about the early professionalization of youth sports and how we get kind of all these athletes who are trained to Be boring robots and uninteresting. And they play that way and they act that way. And Ja Morant's not one of those guys. And so like, I appreciate that Ja Morant skyrocketed in his popularity because of the way they played and not because of the gun stuff, but because he was interesting and, and I like that. But sometimes what comes along with that is he hasn't been polished. He's, he's a, a rougher rock that hasn't been through this AAU, this Nike circuit that 12 year old talented basketball players have gone through, which is how you end up with a player like Jayson Tatum who plays incredibly well and says nothing that I care about.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Yeah, but there's, there's, there's people who have come from rough backgrounds who get out of that and then realize, you know what? I, not only do I not want to go back, I don't want to even like for instance, Isaiah Thomas. You know where Isaiah Thomas is from?

[Amin Elhassan]

Absolutely.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Exactly. And Isaiah Thomas, the original for whatever. Yeah, the original Isaiah Thomas for whatever reason, you make it to Detroit, you make it to the University of Indiana and you say, you know what? This is what I'm going to focus on. Basketball is key. And then you run into the bad boy image and all this other stuff. But at some point, you know, like with lamelo ball, like John Morant, like Zion Williamson, extremely gifted, talented dudes. But at what point do you say to yourself, this is hindering the progress of whatever I'm trying to accomplish because you know, in the end you can't, you can't have it as a league. There's certain things you just can't. And on top of it, especially in this league where, where, where the little hint of violence might, you know, might sway certain people who have marketing dollars.

[Jon Weiner]

So who's in jaws ear would you say? Is it his agent, his parents, his sponsors, his friends, his family? And the question is, are they in his ear from a business standpoint, saying, hey, be you, be unapologetically you, it's not going to cost you a dollar. Or are they saying, listen here, you have an opportunity to really have a problem because he already lost out on the full max deal that he could get because of the issues he had. So is someone actually helping him? That's what the agent is supposed to be for.

[Amin Elhassan]

I'm not sure that anyone's in his ear at this point. Like he's, it feels like the people believe that ran the coach out. Like he has all the power that he needs in an organization right now. And I think that just to push back on something that you said a little bit ago, I don't even necessarily think that it has to do with where the player came from as much as these things are kind of pop culture things that are gestures. Like, you'll see guys hit a three and shoot the three guns where it doesn't matter where they come from. I think that that's the question. And how close the NBA wants to be aligned to those things. Obviously, they don't. Whether they want to be.

[Jessica]

Well, they don't want the players to be aligned with it, but obviously where people that invest in the NBA put their money seems to not really matter what they support.

[Amin Elhassan]

Absolutely. So, yeah, I guess, I don't know. The thing that jumped out to me about this is that they're doing an investigation. I don't think you need investigation. What's the fine for doing gun gestures? Get that man to fine. Unless you plan on suspending him because of his history. This feels odd to me.

[Jessica]

I think this was also something that came up at the NFL meetings this week in regards to, like, gun gesture celebrations and things like that. Like, it's something that flagged a lot last year in college football and in the NFL and something that, like, all of the leagues seem that they're trying to crack down on right now. So I. It's not just happening with.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Well, when 75% of the participants are playing Call of Duty, Especially on a day like today when Dancemack has dropped back in our lives. I mean, you know, there's. There's. There's a. There's a relationship that is weird there where, you know, you remember when Kobe was a part of the Call of Duty commercials back in the day? Like, there's there's this. Hey, this is the culture. This is what we breed in this country in terms of loving guns and making sure that your rights aren't being infringed upon. Just don't do it where a little white kid sitting courtside might be influenced by it. You know what I mean?

[Amin Elhassan]

I can't wait to the game tonight because Ja's in town. We should get tickets. Go see Ja. Go see Ja and play the heat, right? Yeah.

[David Sampson]

With Kyle Anderson, who's +47 over his last four games.

[Dominique Foxworth]

There we go.

[Jon Weiner]

Dominique, go on. Game time.

[Amin Elhassan]

Can you say that again for me?

[Jon Weiner]

Go on. Game time. You can get tickets right now.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Ooh, that's Urban Sampson right there. I like it. I like it.

[Amin Elhassan]

Oh, my gosh. All right, David, before I Let you go. Is there anything you want us to know before you go? You want to throw out a plug for your show? Tell us how clean or dirty your bottom is, Whatever the things are that you like to say.

[Jon Weiner]

Well, I've got a good schmitz going because I'm drinking tea right now, so it will require a post show cleanse. But I will say that I appreciate you helping and having me and paying attention to nothing personal. But I leave you with this.

[Amin Elhassan]

Okay, Leave it.

[Jon Weiner]

Dodgers are 8. No. The Braves are oh and 7. The likelihood that either one of them will win or lose 116 games continues to be low. Low, like, likely never to happen. Therefore, when you're feeling so good about something and conversely, you're feeling so bad about something, just know that feeling is what gives you the frame of reference when things get better.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Words to live on. I love it.

[Amin Elhassan]

See you, David.

[Jon Weiner]

Thank you, brother.

[Dominique Foxworth]

I'm not. Hey, I needed that this morning.

[Amin Elhassan]

Did you?

[Dominique Foxworth]

100% I did. I needed it.

[Amin Elhassan]

I didn't quite get it. Like, what I was trying to do was like, let's get excited. And Dave was like, hey, you know what? Don't be happy. Don't be happy. It's dark out there. Like, what I need, like, if I.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Pass from David's red book.

[Amin Elhassan]

You know what I mean? I was saying, like, look, I'm not a big baseball guy, but Shohei got my attention. Of course, the Dodgers may be chasing 116. That'll get my attention. I care about it. The guy who we bring on this show, who's supposed to be the big baseball guy, is like, you know what? That's never gonna happen. They're not gonna win 116 games. And they lined up for the show. Hey, bobbleheads. What trash is it? That's not what I was looking for.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Be realist. You want pie in the sky. You want all things, you know, seashells and balloo. It's not like that. And the moment that you get out of that world and get back into the reality of David Sampson and the great people here at the Dan Leardard show.

[Amin Elhassan]

You're such a sweetheart, man.

[Dominique Foxworth]

I'm just being honest.

[Amin Elhassan]

I said, we're looking at the greatest team of all time. We're not. He said, don't get too happy.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Calm yourself down. He tried to let you know you don't know this sport the way he does.

[Amin Elhassan]

We quite possibly are.

[Dominique Foxworth]

He ushered you in, you know, he is your baseball Sherpa, taking you to that mountaintop, and you're Flailing, wanting, you know, bobbleheads and toys and all the, all the, you know, the accoutrement. That's not what goes. I like accoutrements sometimes.

Hey, friends, it's Jerbear here, and I'm here to tell you all about Boost Mobile, which is now a legit nationwide 5G network.

Not even once. Not even if Mr. Boost Mobile himself asked me to. There is nothing funny about it. Boost Mobile is now a legit nationwide 5G network and also provides coverage across 99% of America. Seriously? Visit boostmobile.com or your nearest Boost Mobile store location to learn more.

[Dominique Foxworth]

A lot more heads.

[Amin Elhassan]

It got heads. I have been. We have to have.

[Dominique Foxworth]

VMI has changed on the show a little bit, but show is a lot better.

[Amin Elhassan]

We got to get Amin in here with you and Roy. We got to set a new record.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Wait a minute.

[Amin Elhassan]

Yesterday, we set the record. We had a all black main room.

[Chris Cote]

Roy missed the blackest show in show history.

[Amin Elhassan]

But Roy wasn't here.

[Dan LeBatard]

I'm here now.

[Amin Elhassan]

Yeah, he gave you a little something.

[Dominique Foxworth]

To be in there, too. A little baritone, a little bass of my voice chest. The first episode of the Black McAfee Show. Here. Who's gonna wear the tank top?

[Amin Elhassan]

I'm here now. Oh, man. I volunteer.

Pull off a mullet. You can pull off a mullet, Roy.

[Dan LeBatard]

I'm in.

[Dominique Foxworth]

I've been following Roy.

[Jessica]

I guess I'll leave.

[Dominique Foxworth]

No, no, no, no. We need you, Jess.

[Amin Elhassan]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Dominique Foxworth]

You make things, you know.

[Jessica]

Oh, yeah. Balanced, for sure. I actually looked up yesterday we were talking about Denny's. Because you and I both had not been to many Denny's. No Denny's in the city of Chicago, but a few in Chicagoland. You were right.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Well, you know, I tried to stay away from the suburbs. I tried to. I tried to. You know, I'm a little.

[Jessica]

I've never Had a Moons over my Hammy.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Well, Cody mentioned it, and I was like, uh, oh, there's another thing on this show that I don't know the reference to.

[Chris Cote]

Damn good sandwich.

[Jessica]

It's just a ham sandwich.

[Chris Cote]

Like an egg and cheese and ham. It's like their version of a ham, egg, and cheese sandwich. It's called Moons Over Miami.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Anywhere in Pilsen. I can go to anywhere in Humboldt park, the areas that are close, and get an actual one with less. No more quality control than Denny. Shout out to Denny's. I don't know if they're a sponsor, so I don't want to go crazy again.

[Chris Cote]

This is a two America's thing. I thought everyone knew about the Moons Over Miami.

[Amin Elhassan]

I've never heard of it.

[Chris Cote]

This is crazy.

[Dominique Foxworth]

So is Denny's, like, after an after.

[David Sampson]

Party I haven't met yet.

[Chris Cote]

Denny's is like 2am Back in the day.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Oh, yeah, we got greasy spoons. You know what I mean? And you can't.

[Roy Bellamy]

That's where meat is now.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Denny's. I like to go somewhere where there's a little bit of danger.

[Jessica]

I would go to ihop, but not Denny's.

[Amin Elhassan]

Yeah, ihop. Yeah. Yeah, I have been to ihop.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Last time I was at ihop, I was a kid, and then we dined in ditch, unfortunately. Yeah. Which is always the uncomfortable, like, who's gonna be the last person at the seat kind of vibe.

[Chris Cote]

I think enough times.

[Amin Elhassan]

Pass.

[Chris Cote]

I think you're good.

[Jon Weiner]

Yeah.

[Dominique Foxworth]

You know, statute of limitations, you know, get me down here.

[Jessica]

IHOP puts pancake batter in their omelets to make them, like, fluffier.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Shut the front door. Yo, Jess. Yo. This is the oracle. Like, there's information that I get from Jess that I didn't know I needed. You know, Cody, just, you know, you got. You got Bam out of bio. Stats back there for Jeremy.

[David Sampson]

So what's my name?

[Jessica]

You don't.

[Dominique Foxworth]

He just said it.

[David Sampson]

You tried real hard. Tried real hard. You were just.

[Amin Elhassan]

Hesitation.

[David Sampson]

I knew that that pause was the same as insecure.

[Dominique Foxworth]

That pause was the same when people read me right. They read me right.

[David Sampson]

I got it. It's all right.

[Dominique Foxworth]

So what I usually do.

[David Sampson]

He was so smooth on everything else, and I knew it was the guy. When you're trying not to say drinker.

[Dominique Foxworth]

I try to whisper the words that I don't know or don't know how to pronounce or names that I don't know.

[David Sampson]

My guy. Bam out of bio.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Yeah. Yeah. I was gonna go with Jackie. I was gonna go Real small, You know what I mean? You look like a Jackie.

[Amin Elhassan]

You give Jackie Jackie? Yeah, for sure. Yeah.

[Dominique Foxworth]

You go outside. Hey, that's my man. Jackie.

[Amin Elhassan]

That's fly name. No, it's a fly name.

[David Sampson]

I'll take Jackie.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Yeah, it looks like he's always got some mid on him. You know what I mean? Yeah, I'm down.

[Amin Elhassan]

Jackie with the mid.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Jackie with the mid.

[Amin Elhassan]

Yeah, you look like Jackie with the mid.

[Dominique Foxworth]

He's got his nice over shirt on. You know what I mean?

[Amin Elhassan]

I like that. He's a shack. Brock for sure. Shacket, bro.

[Dominique Foxworth]

For sure. Oh, that's what it's called. I thought it was an overshirt. Jess, where were you when I needed your. Your guidance?

[Jessica]

I'm sorry. I was gonna say Jeremy's thing now is that Dan started to rebrand Jeremy's.

[Amin Elhassan]

Who's that?

[Dominique Foxworth]

Jackie with the mid.

[Jessica]

This is Jeremy.

[Amin Elhassan]

Oh, I thought you talking about Jackie.

[Jessica]

Okay, Jackie. So Dan, like, rebranded himself maybe like a year ago and started wearing overshirts. More like business casual. And now they dress, like, identical.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Oh, he stole your style. Yeah, he did. Completely.

[Jessica]

Whoever his style Dan thing, too.

[Chris Cote]

A lot of olive green.

[Amin Elhassan]

But I have to go wrong. I have to approve the new dance style. Cause, I mean, if you're copying Jeremy, you're doing all right. Jeremy dresses well for around here. Like, for around here. No, that's the accurate.

[Dan LeBatard]

What is that supposed to mean?

[David Sampson]

The bar's low, but I'll take it.

[Amin Elhassan]

No, no, no. It means. Oh, I don't need to hide. It means exactly what I said it was.

[David Sampson]

Oh, that's right.

[Jon Weiner]

For around here.

[Amin Elhassan]

Y'all dress like 90s cartoon characters. It's like a kid. It like we had recess. Everybody dressed like that.

[Chris Cote]

Hey, Arnold.

[Amin Elhassan]

Yeah, that's it. Y'all dress like a bunch of hey, Arnolds. Which is true.

[Jessica]

They have, like, uniforms. Like, Chris wears the same shorts and the same shirt every single day.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Yeah, and I think we're gonna stumble on an HR problem.

[Amin Elhassan]

And I want.

[Jessica]

Don't worry.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Right. My bad.

[Amin Elhassan]

Jess come in here looking, like, wet. Looking nice and put together, like she.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Yeah, that was kind of like my name just now.

[Amin Elhassan]

Yeah, I was gonna say fly, but then I was like, I don't. I just want to say nice.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Professor pressure on. On women than there are on men in front of a camera behind a microphone. I saw you guys getting touched up with. With makeup. I didn't know that. I come in here with wearing all my stress.

[Amin Elhassan]

I've gone a long way the first time I came down here. The lighting in this room wasn't for us.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's still not for us.

[Amin Elhassan]

However.

[Dominique Foxworth]

What is it? Interrogation lighting. What do you mean by that?

[Amin Elhassan]

It was. They didn't need. It wasn't as bright. Oh, the opposite of that. Yeah. Then I sat down and was like.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Damn, it was a sexier vibe in here. It was, like, low.

[Amin Elhassan]

No, it was Dan and Stu.

[Dominique Foxworth]

So there's a sexier vibe here?

[Amin Elhassan]

Absolutely not. So if you turn the light up too high, their skin doesn't look great.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Translucent.

[Amin Elhassan]

So then I come sit down and I'm like, that's just eyes and teeth. What y'all doing? Give me some. Give your man.

[Dominique Foxworth]

I get it, okay.

[Amin Elhassan]

The lighting was bad, but. So I'm sorry that I didn't get you on the makeup, but at least I got your proper lighting.

[Dominique Foxworth]

I appreciate.

[Amin Elhassan]

Speaking of attire, though, what's. What are you gonna come after my shirt? I'm not coming after.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Okay, Okay. I found that every shirt that I've worn over the last couple of days has gotten, you know, some kind of commentary. Yeah, exactly. Commentary.

[Amin Elhassan]

They all look great, but you gotta. You gotta vibe you. You're the crochet king. You are the crochet king of Miami. Every shirt you worn down here.

[Jessica]

But, Dominique, when you live in Chicago, when you live in Chicago, you have a week in Miami. This, you're bringing every button down, crochet, short sleeve shirt you own.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Jess, I got two outfit changes for every day down here.

[Jessica]

I. I feel I understand you.

[Dominique Foxworth]

You know what I'm saying? I'm not gonna come and hang out with.

[Jessica]

He hasn't seen the sun in six months, Dominique. All right?

[Dominique Foxworth]

Exactly. And that's just because I was locked up. You know what I mean? That' no, thank you, Jess. Can I have Jess be with me wherever I go from here on out. I leave tomorrow morning. Jess, come on.

[Amin Elhassan]

I bet that those crochet shirts was in the back of your closet.

[Jon Weiner]

Got shocked.

[Amin Elhassan]

They like, oh, what are you doing? You unhand me, sir.

[Dominique Foxworth]

So I will be honest with you. They still had the cleaners tags on because I clean them at the end of the summer. I put them up. I put them in the, you know, the Ziploc, little bags, storage or whatever. And then I just, hey, I'm going down to Miami to hang out with the peeps. I can't come down here in my down coat, you know, in my, my, my Canada goose expedition, like, 30 pound sleeping bag that I have to wear every single day while I'm up in Chicago. Nah, it was 36 degrees when I left home.

[Amin Elhassan]

You didn't want to come to work in athletic shirt and a baseball hat. That wasn't what you wanted to do.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Sup? Right. Right now that's probably not where I'm at in life. You know what I mean? It's not. You know, I didn't work hard. My parents didn't come to this country to see me, you know, dressed like, you know, a high school basketball manager.

[Jessica]

Baseball coach. Okay, High school baseball coach. That's what he's going for.

[Dominique Foxworth]

I'm not talking about Cody.

[Chris Cote]

Dominique throwing a lot of shade for plain shirt guy and shorts.

[Amin Elhassan]

I was going to say, these aren't shorts, baby. These are pants.

[Roy Bellamy]

There's a lot of jealous here. Dominique did not pack his own suitcase.

[Amin Elhassan]

Of course not.

[Dominique Foxworth]

And. Oh, you packed it for him.

[Amin Elhassan]

Charlie.

[Roy Bellamy]

No, I think he wants a little bit more crush.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Charlie want that credit, right? We're like, yeah, he does.

[Amin Elhassan]

Damn it. Enough now. Enough. I picked out good outfits for him.

[Dominique Foxworth]

He looks.

[Roy Bellamy]

He looks good, Roy.

[Dominique Foxworth]

He turns him around as soon as he walks out the hotel room. No, no, no. Back in with that.

[Roy Bellamy]

It's a totally normal outfit.

[Amin Elhassan]

Find a new slant.

[Dominique Foxworth]

We're going to the beach. Where are your trunks?

[Amin Elhassan]

We've come a long way with Charlie's attire. Cause Charlie used to. When he first became the co host of my show, he was just the producer at first and then became the co host. And he kept dressing like a producer. And I was like, man, show the audience some respect. Show the audience some respect.

[Roy Bellamy]

Collars are for dogs.

[Amin Elhassan]

He would say things like, collars are for dogs.

[Dominique Foxworth]

That's crazy. I have something like. Well, not similar to that, but something that I tell my son, like, belts are for winners.

[Amin Elhassan]

Cause I see people who walk around.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Without belts, I'm like, we're not having that. We're not having that. Put on a belt or get fat enough that your clothes sit on your hips the way mine do. I don't have to bring a belt.

[Amin Elhassan]

You know what I mean? That belts is for winners reminded me like, I've never met Charlie's dad, but I love him because he tells me the things that his dad says. What was the thing about the marathon runner that your dad uses all the time?

[Roy Bellamy]

You can always pick up the pace. The story of Bill rogers of the 1980 Boston Marathon, where he ran the last five miles, like 4:30 pace. Anytime I'm dragging ass, Bill Rogers, he can always pick up the pace. Has just yelled at me.

[Amin Elhassan]

It's awesome, man.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Nothing like a dad not allowing for vulnerability and comfort. That's how we forge good men in this world.

[Amin Elhassan]

Let me tell you this other thing. And Charlie's dad might be mad at me, even though I haven't met him. That Charlie told me that I can't let go of it makes me so happy. Charlie, could you please. I'm gonna tell him right now. I tell the story.

[Roy Bellamy]

Booting a few ground balls.

[Amin Elhassan]

So first of all, Charlie's dad was a good athlete. Charlie's older brother is a college tennis player. Like, they're a family of pretty good athletes. And Charlie's a younger brother, and Charlie's playing baseball. And his dad says this.

[Roy Bellamy]

Just booting a few ground balls. And he just discussed be an athlete one time.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Oh, wow. Oh, damn, man. Oh, my God. Did you hear the trauma?

[David Sampson]

I stuck with you.

[Jessica]

Meanwhile, Chris, dad was like, I did not.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Yee haw.

[Amin Elhassan]

Three padamp.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Hey, that's a lot better than missing. Well, actually, making a layup on your own basket and your father walking out of the game. Oh, yeah. My dad came to one game when I was in junior high, and I was so excited, I wasn't paying attention to what was going on in the court. I'm like, why is no one guarding me? I laid the basketball up and all of a sudden everyone exploded. And I just saw my father get up and walk out the door.

[Jessica]

They love dad trauma talk.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Oh, yeah. It makes us the men that we are, you know, it makes us overcompensate in our parenting. I feel like I have to cry alone.

[Amin Elhassan]

I have to add something to this because I feel left out. But at my.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Yeah, dad trauma. Let's go around the room.

[Amin Elhassan]

The first thing. The first thing that came to my mind was, was probably the opposite. Opposite way. So I'm 10 years old, I think, playing Pop Warner football. And I come to the sideline after, or not to the sideline after the game, we're riding home and my dad's like, that one play, like, I thought you could have cut back that way. And I looked at my dad and was like, you're not out there. And my dad heart gets back to that story all the time. And was like, that was the last time I tried to give you any advice on football.

[Dominique Foxworth]

He was like, seems like it's the last time you needed it. It's nothing like when the 10 year old runs the house now, by the way, that garbage not gonna take itself out.

[Amin Elhassan]

I did not run the house at any point, but I was the best player on the team. I think I had three Touchdowns in that game alone. And I got in the car, and he was like, but that one play, you should have looked back inside. You're not out there.

[Jessica]

Dad, you were like, the football player that was so good. You had to play, like, running back, wide receiver, corner.

[Dominique Foxworth]

He told us to play nose guard last night.

[Amin Elhassan]

I only played nose guard for one game, and they never put me back at it. So when you play, like, Pop Warner football, there's weight ranges. And so, like, obviously, if you're the same weight as me, I'm gonna be a better athlete. They put me at nose guard, and the other team couldn't get a playoff because it was like, what are you gonna do?

[Dominique Foxworth]

Dominique the diva was born in that car.

[Amin Elhassan]

It was not that. That. That didn't happen until I got back from my first time home after college and being in a real weight program. And my dad was like, oh, you got a little weights.

[Dominique Foxworth]

You think.

[Amin Elhassan]

You think you something, huh? Little weight. Yeah. We had to get the wall replastered because I picked this little ass up, put him into the wall.

[Dominique Foxworth]

We were getting to the. To the domestic.

[Amin Elhassan]

No, it was, like, playful. It was playful.

[Chris Cote]

Playful driving into the wall.

[David Sampson]

Super playful.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Sometimes you just got a power bomb. You don't wrestle before.

[Amin Elhassan]

I love my dad. He was great.

[Dan LeBatard]

He took care of mom trauma.

[David Sampson]

Then you could have made that cut.

[Jessica]

Same, Honestly.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Hey, hey.

[Amin Elhassan]

I agree. You weren't out there, man. You wasn't out there. Northwood Rams was fast.

[Jessica]

Chris's traumas. He saw his dad's feet one time.

[Chris Cote]

Oh, that toenail always sticks with me situation.

[Amin Elhassan]

They were a fe.

[Dominique Foxworth]

What is it with dads not wanting to ever take care of feet?

[Amin Elhassan]

It's wild.

[Jessica]

You. You tell us.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Ever.

[Jessica]

Let's ask the dad.

[Dominique Foxworth]

No, I mean, I. I get pedicures every 10 days or so.

[Chris Cote]

It has inspired me.

[Jon Weiner]

I don't.

[Amin Elhassan]

That's.

[Chris Cote]

Every 10 days is not.

[David Sampson]

You're an inspiration.

[Chris Cote]

I do, like, every. Every couple months. Once. But it's because I'm like, I am not gonna let my feet get to that.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Yeah.

[Amin Elhassan]

Yeah, I think so. I remember my dad would. Would say, anytime we make fun of his feet, he's working man's feet. It's a. It's a. It's an ego masculinity thing. How many times you get a pedicure a week, Jackie? Two, three times a week?

[Dominique Foxworth]

Yeah.

[David Sampson]

It's like every other day.

[Jessica]

Chris is out here trying to break the cycle. He's like, I'm not gonna have my dad's toenails. I'm not gonna do it.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Hey, man, stick to what you believe in. I don't see anything wrong there.

[Amin Elhassan]

It is so terrible.

[Jon Weiner]

Troll.

[Amin Elhassan]

What is that?

[Dominique Foxworth]

That's.

[Chris Cote]

That's a human foot.

[Amin Elhassan]

No, actually, I don't believe.

[Dan LeBatard]

Get it off the screen.

[Amin Elhassan]

It's a Velociraptor, the Lord of the Rings character. That kind of thing.

[Chris Cote]

Park the nail. That's like clapping on the floor.

[Dominique Foxworth]

You see the. The water trembling? Get it off the screen.

[Chris Cote]

He's deep frying a turkey there.

[Dominique Foxworth]

My God, that's deep frying his ankle is what he's doing.

[Amin Elhassan]

That foot's. That foot cannot.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Good veins, though. Good veins.

[Chris Cote]

Solid veins.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Good veins, yeah. If he's ever got problems, you know, getting an iv, you can go right to the feet right there. Yeah.

[Amin Elhassan]

If you showed me that picture, I would not say, Greg, like, I would. There would be some like. Like you mentioned.

[Dominique Foxworth]

Hey, audience, you know, it's that time of year where everyone is debating who the number one pick is going to be. Well, let me tell you something that is undebatable. Who the world's number one vodka is. That is Smirnoff. And as fun as it is to debate whether or not the team with the number one pick goes past Russia. Wide receiver, quarterback. One thing that we all know is we're going with Smirnoff as our number one vodka pick. Isn't that right, Dano?
