[Dan LeBatard]

I'm not gonna apologize for that.

[Stugotz]

In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past table to grab somebody's fries if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys. I've done it. And now here's the marching man to Nowhere Fat Face and the Habitual Liar.

[Chris Whittingham]

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

[Stugotz]

So a little bit later, we're going to be talking to Jacob Jeffries.

[Dan LeBatard]

Who's he?

[Stugotz]

He is a singer songwriter who has provided songs for one of my favorite TV shows, Teen Titans Go.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, yeah.

[Stugotz]

Yeah. So I'm a real big fan of that show. I'm a real big fan of the music that they do in that show. I think it's really well done. And it turns out Jeremy knows a dude that's contributed to this grand history of great music on this show.

[Chris Whittingham]

Not only does he know him, but before the show, I heard Jeremy say, and I quote, he taught me everything I know about music. Really?

[Jeremy]

That's true. Yeah, he. I was. Billy's so excited about that guy should.

[Mike Ryan]

Be putting the blame for it. Watch list. Geez Louise.

[Jeremy]

I mean, that's super disarming. But I went to a disarming. You'll love this, Billy. I went to a camp as a summer camp as a kid called Broward Arts Camp, and I went there to be a theater kid, but they had like a rock and roll section and the bad. Basically it was for all the kids who played instruments, and they didn't really have a ton of singers. And Jacob Jeffries and the guys who were in his band were the teachers of each instrument. He was the vocal Teacher and the keyboard teacher. And because I like to play sports, we would, during lunch, all play basketball together. And I started doing the rock band stuff. And then he became my keyboard teacher and taught me everything about songwriting. So he rocks.

[Chris Whittingham]

Okay.

[Jeremy]

All right, I'll stop.

[Stugotz]

So, yeah, he'll be joining us.

[Jacob Jeffries]

Cool.

[Stugotz]

Call it 15 minutes.

[Jeremy]

Big Panther fan.

[Stugotz]

Well, there you go.

[Jeremy]

Huge Panther from down here.

[Stugotz]

There it is. I should hope so.

[Mike Ryan]

Thank you.

[Stugotz]

There it is. Ace Bailey. Zaz.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah.

[Stugotz]

Falls to Utah. He famously hadn't worked out for any of the teams. Tried to kind of maneuver his way. Some people say Washington, some people say New Orleans, but he ends up in Utah. They ask him, how does it feel to be in Utah? And he says, I hear that it's. It gets really hot and it gets really cold.

[Dan LeBatard]

Wow. So it's like every other place in the world except for Florida. I mean, Ace Bailey is the villain of the draft, right? Like, there's no one that was watching the draft two nights ago and didn't come away with, wow, I don't like that kid. You like. Like, he was. He was drafted into the NBA number five overall. He looked like he just got. Got sent off to Afghanistan, you know, like, I mean, he was.

[Stugotz]

Well, I mean, Utah's not that far.

[Dan LeBatard]

Hey, you got great skiing there. Come on.

[Stugotz]

Guess what. Afghanistan. It gets really hot and it gets really cold.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's right.

[Chris Whittingham]

A lot of dirty cars everywhere.

[Stugotz]

A lot of dirty cars in Utah or in Afghanistan? Oh, Utah. Oh, that's right. I remember. Zaz, you'll love this. We went to Salt Lake for all star weekend, and Chris makes the observation. There's a lot of dirty cars here. The crawls are filthy. And so he says, I to open up a car wash business here and make a killing.

[Chris Whittingham]

You guys want in 80, 20 my way?

[Stugotz]

I mean, as long as you do all the work.

[Mike Ryan]

Sure.

[Dan LeBatard]

I got to wash a car like, eight. Like, no one appreciated Ace Bailey's behavior at the draft, Right. Like, leading up to it, I figured he must. He must have a guarantee from somebody. That's why. And he likes that spot. So I'm not working out for anyone anymore. But Utah is just, like, no effort. We think you're really good, and we want you to play for us. And you'll. You'll see we're a good organization. You'll like it here. We going to prove it to you.

[Stugotz]

Got the exact quote for you here. I know it's cold and it's hot. It get cold and it get hot here. Got to find me A place with a good heater. I fit in good. Because we're all young, so we all got to learn, want to earn, got to learn, right? We can play with each other, get to know each other, how we play, how we fit in, what works. And then also, I don't know a lot about Utah, but I'm learning as we go.

[Dan LeBatard]

But now this is a story, right? Because they're not 100% sure he's gonna be showing up to the press conference. We know the press conference is gonna have Walter Clayton Jr. All right, who. I mean, he's crying when he slicked. He loves going to Utah. And they're not so sure that Ace Bailey's gonna show up because apparently, I mean, the agent. And we can get to him in a second. But the agent. We don't know which team, but the agent did tell one of the teams that were in, like, the top five. I mean, it could be Philadelphia or it could have been Charlotte or it could have been Utah. He told one of those teams, do not draft my client. He will not show.

[Stugotz]

Right.

[Dan LeBatard]

Was it Utah? We don't know.

[Stugotz]

It doesn't sound like it's Utah if he's talking about going to Utah. I mean, I'm not saying he wanted to go to Utah, but I also don't think he told Utah. Don't draft me if it's. He told the one team. Doesn't sound like it was Utah. This is also from his interview after he said, I definitely want to win rookie of the Year, and I definitely want to be an all Star my rookie year. He's a confident young man. Now, I want to go back to something you talked about. Walter Clayton Jr. Sobbing. His lifelong dream has been achieved.

[Dan LeBatard]

Love it.

[Stugotz]

Is that how you feel about people crying at the draft?

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, okay, so that's. It's. Everyone's crying at the draft. And by the way, like, I'll preface it, I like it. I like the emotion. I like when the kids are overwhelmed. I like when the mom is crying. Heck, last night, you had a kid drafted in the second round. His grandpa was crying. Grandpa was so happy. Second round pick. Grandpa's crying. I love it. I love the emotion. So many of the kids were super well spoken with Monica McNutter. Like, I'm just so happy, and I love that. But I'm wondering, it wasn't always like this. Why is everyone crying now? It wasn't like that in the past. What's. What's changed that we're all crying?

[Stugotz]

We.

[Dan LeBatard]

And I like it.

[Chris Whittingham]

Is It. The pandemic. Yeah, well, we're all more emotional now.

[Stugotz]

Well, I know. I think it is. We have normalized and made it okay to cry. Right. Like it used to be when I was growing up. Laugh and the world laughs with you. Cry and I'll give you something to cry about, you little son of a bitch. That's one of the great quotes from Great White Hype. So. But yeah, like, you don't cry. There's no crying in baseball. You don't cry. Basically, you. You hold it and you bottle it in. And over the last maybe six or seven years.

[Chris Whittingham]

Mental health.

[Stugotz]

Mental health is big and everyone is.

[Chris Whittingham]

So not the pandemic.

[Stugotz]

It's okay. Well, I mean, I'm sure the pandemic. Hell.

[Chris Whittingham]

Thank you.

[Mike Ryan]

Are we just like moving forward and we don't add. Covid. It's a great crime. We're out. Covid. Covid. I guess.

[Chris Whittingham]

What happened to Victoria's Secret?

[Stugotz]

Covid.

[Mike Ryan]

Covid. I guess. I don't know.

[Stugotz]

It's a great thing because then no one can ever argue with you.

[Mike Ryan]

It is great for, like, lacking accountability on all fronts on anything. Oh, like your performance. Covid.

[Chris Whittingham]

Haven't been the same.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, you didn't. You didn't wish me a happy birthday.

[Dan LeBatard]

I forgot to take out the trash at home. I was gonna tell my wife. Covid.

[Mike Ryan]

Covid.

[Stugotz]

It's a great excuse. It's a catch.

[Mike Ryan]

All we're all recovering still is a long pandemic.

[Stugotz]

Grab some pots and pans.

[Mike Ryan]

Bringing up the window at 6:00.

[Dan LeBatard]

But why are we all crying?

[Stugotz]

Crying? Because we told people. We told people it's okay to cry. It's okay to cry. It's okay to.

[Jeremy]

Insinuating this is a bad thing.

[Chris Whittingham]

I actually think he said it's good thing. Like, I know we're joking. It's mental health. You hit it. That's the real reason people are more in touch with their feelings. That's why we're crying more.

[Dan LeBatard]

I. I don't think that's it.

[Stugotz]

You think there's another reason?

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, I'm trying to figure out what the reason is. I almost wonder though, there's so much money in the NBA now. It used to be, you know, if you were. If you were selected, you're a rookie, you're not making a ton of money.

[Stugotz]

The work is still there to be done. You still have work.

[Chris Whittingham]

Could it be attention seeking? To be. To be. To be like viral social media nowadays?

[Jeremy]

Yeah, but not even faking it, but more that we're all Used to. And not just, obviously the people in this room where we're literally camera right now, but people are used to performing for the camera in their lives. And so having extreme reactions to things. Part of what we do, especially.

[Chris Whittingham]

You're just. You're being judged Zaz right now. You're just like, that's not it.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah. I don't think that's what's happening.

[Chris Whittingham]

What do you think?

[Jeremy]

So, Covid?

[Stugotz]

It is.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think. I think there's so much money that it really. Like Vijay Edgecombe, for instance, Right. He went number three to Philadelphia, which, by the way, if you don't know, he and his family are from Bimini, which is crazy. All right. It is. It's a beautiful little island in the Bahamas, and it's so small. You know what the. You know what the population in Bimini is like.

[Stugotz]

Whoever's there for vacation right now, it's 2400 people. Yep.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's how many people live in Bimini. And this Vijay Edgecombe and his family are from Bimini. It's amazing. All right. I love that story so much. But Vijay Edgecombe was talking afterward how they had no electricity. They lived off of a radiator for seven years.

[Chris Whittingham]

So that's probably why he's crying.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, the mother. The mother couldn't even talk. The mother was so emotional. And it's like, they're so. So they're drafted right away. And it's not like 20 years ago where, okay, you still got a little work to do. All right. Before we actually get paid. No, VJ Edgecomb just got paid. And now it's like, we did it. We did it.

[Stugotz]

Can I offer you a counterpoint?

[Dan LeBatard]

I think that has a lot.

[Stugotz]

I think VJ Edgecomb represents a Stark minority. In a time 20 years ago, he would have been the norm. So 20, 25 years ago, guys are getting drafted. And for a lot of these guys, man, I had to come out of some really dire situation to get to this point. Now my family's taken care of the NBA now, and the NBA draft is populated more than ever by upper middle class kids because of just the way this sport has evolved. Right. Especially domestically, internationally, you still get guys, you know, who got plucked out of somewhere and got into a program and were discovered that way. But domestically, a lot of these guys, because AU and coaches and trainers have.

[Dan LeBatard]

Money to be able to afford the training.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, it's the. It's the reason why back in the day, they were like, oh, tennis is such a high barrier to entry because it was so expensive.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think hockey's like that. You got to have a lot of money to go to play hockey.

[Stugotz]

They all are. And. And so you. You think to yourself, like, don't look now, but there may not be any kind of broke kids playing. Well, I was talking about.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's time for a new game.

[Stugotz]

Don't look now.

[Mike Ryan]

It's presented by Smirnoff, the world's number one vodka. Please drink.

[Billy]

Responsible.

[Stugotz]

I'm really thrown off by this eye mask.

[Chris Whittingham]

Guys, don't look now, but Taylor Swift made an appearance at Height Nu TEU in Nashville. She got on stage, real place, all the. All the tight ends in the NFL and their wives and girlfriends so excited. She performed with Kane Brown on stage. She sang Shake it off. What a time. What a time to be alive.

[Stugotz]

Chris, you look like Shai Gilgeous Alexander on Good Morning America right now.

[Chris Whittingham]

Thank you, man. But don't. Are you looking at me?

[Stugotz]

Well, yeah, I.

[Jeremy]

You're not supposed to look.

[Stugotz]

I'm not.

[Dan LeBatard]

Okay, I'm sorry.

[Chris Whittingham]

Don't look now. The Bucs have extended Todd Bowles.

[Stugotz]

Todd Bowles, the coach? Yeah. It took me a while.

[Chris Whittingham]

He has a funny voice.

[Stugotz]

I was thinking about Milwaukee Bucks.

[Mike Ryan]

I thought Milwaukee Bucks.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, me too. I was like, who's Todd Bowl?

[Chris Whittingham]

Did I say the Bucks? No, I guess they are the Bucks.

[Jeremy]

My bad.

[Mike Ryan]

Buccaneers.

[Stugotz]

How much is it?

[Chris Whittingham]

Back to you guys.

[Stugotz]

That's it? That's all you got?

[Billy]

You can look now.

[Stugotz]

How much does it cost to pierce a Pirateeers buccaneer? Yeah, I did that one.

[Dan LeBatard]

So it's all middle.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, no, it's. The demographic is shifting and so.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, that would go against my theory.

[Stugotz]

Except also that's the demographic that's more in touch with their feelings and more likely to be. It's okay to cry, right? Like if you come from some. Some stark background, they tell you, hey, man, that's a sign of weakness. You can't show those emotions. You can't trust people with those emotions. But if you're coming up like little Johnny, you know, hey, it's okay. It's okay, buddy. You can cry.

[Jeremy]

Yeah, Just look at me. I mean, come on. I come from an upper middle class background and I'm crying all the time.

[Dan LeBatard]

You'd be blubbering if you got trapped.

[Jeremy]

You give me that generationally like life changing money. Cuz it's like if you have. If there's one thing, you'd have been like the brother money.

[Dan LeBatard]

You've been like the brother who.

[Jeremy]

Yes. I mean, it's another Thing to have that type of money.

[Stugotz]

Dude, I wish. I wish I got. Now, here's the funny thing. If I got drafted, I'd be cool as shit.

[Dan LeBatard]

That kid was blubbering.

[Stugotz]

Oh, that's it. That's Danny Wolf's brother.

[Dan LeBatard]

I like it, though. Again, I like it so much.

[Chris Whittingham]

Bone structure definition in those eyes.

[Stugotz]

Oh, my gosh. That slant, those brains.

[Jeremy]

How do you. I feel. I feel so bad for him.

[Chris Whittingham]

It looks like his eyes are like seven inches inside his skull.

[Jeremy]

Like.

[Chris Whittingham]

Like from where his bone is at the top of his eyebrows to where his balls are. It's like throw up on the screen.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's also. His face got so red so quick.

[Jeremy]

Yes.

[Dan LeBatard]

It like crying for hours.

[Stugotz]

Just pause it. Pause it right here. Pause it right here. Look at that face, man.

[Chris Whittingham]

Now, if we. If we hit play on this. I think he moused the F word. So is there such thing as a happy effort?

[Dan LeBatard]

See, look. No, maybe because he's looking at himself on the screen, but that proves the.

[Chris Whittingham]

Point that the Toronto guy maybe, was that. Maybe it was a happy.

[Mike Ryan]

He looks like Judge Reinhold, right?

[Stugotz]

Yes, he does. A little bit. A little bit.

[Chris Whittingham]

Maybe he does look up and sees himself.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, I think. I think you guys are.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's what I think happened. He sees himself, and that's how he.

[Stugotz]

Tries to compose himself after that.

[Dan LeBatard]

If we saw a picture just randomly, you showed someone that, you know, the still frame, he's crying, he's really upset, and you show that to someone and you said, what happened to this person? Like, you would never say that. His brother just got drafted.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, I'd have a lot of.

[Chris Whittingham]

Brother just got a job.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, my brother got a job. It worked out. So that's what I was going to say. If I got drafted, definitely wouldn't cry. I'd be cool as hell. If my brother got drafted, I think I'd be happy and joyous. I don't think I'd cry.

[Chris Whittingham]

Not to bring it back to Jeremy again, but him and his brother would cry for each other the way the.

[Jeremy]

Kids are a thousand percent.

[Stugotz]

If my child got drafted, I think if it's your child or your grandchild, I think you're allowed to just sob.

[Dan LeBatard]

Am I the only one who thought it was weird behavior from Dylan Harper and his father, Ron Harper, after he was drafted the other day? What was weird about it, Dylan walked, right? He hugged his agent who was standing right next to his father, Ron Harper, and he didn't even say anything or dap him up or nothing. And then when they Were doing the interview. It was just the Harper brothers and the mother.

[Stugotz]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

Now, I understand that they must not be together, the parents, but okay, whatever. Ron is just sitting down. He didn't even, like, say hello or congratulations or shake his son's hand. I'm the only one who noticed that.

[Chris Whittingham]

I didn't notice it.

[Stugotz]

I didn't. I mean, I guess now in retrospect, I think about it, but, like, I don't.

[Dan LeBatard]

You know, the agent was right next to Ron. He hugged the agent. He kept walking.

[Chris Whittingham]

Okay, so, okay, let me get back to expressing emotions. Maybe in that family, they don't.

[Stugotz]

Or maybe.

[Chris Whittingham]

Maybe they're not a hugging family.

[Mike Ryan]

Maybe it happened when it was off camera.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, there you go. Or maybe he doesn't mess with his dad like that. Which it wouldn't be the first time. NBA player with NBA dad. And the relationships are strained a little bit.

[Mike Ryan]

Look at Bron and LeBron.

[Chris Whittingham]

They would hug.

[Stugotz]

They would dap each other.

[Chris Whittingham]

They'll do one of their handshakes, one.

[Stugotz]

Of those secret handshakes, which, by the way, there is no bigger waste of LeBron's superpower. LeBron, we all know his superpowers. He has, like, a photographic man.

[Chris Whittingham]

Then learning all the handshakes, he has.

[Stugotz]

To learn, like, that's the biggest waste of that thing. But it could be probably solving curing cancer.

[Jeremy]

That's probably one of the most wasteful things you could do with that power.

[Stugotz]

Hey, I can remember everything from any time.

[Chris Whittingham]

So you have him passing up on a chance to be on a board of some cancer medicine development, and he's.

[Jeremy]

Like, guys, I got to spend my time memorizing.

[Chris Whittingham]

I have a handshake appointment.

[Mike Ryan]

I'm the dean of dap. I can't right now.

[Stugotz]

How bad do you feel if you're LeBron's teammate and then, like, he messes up the dap? Do you just go along with it or.

[Chris Whittingham]

You're the one teammate that doesn't have a dap.

[Stugotz]

No.

[Dan LeBatard]

Let's say, let's get there. Are you wondering when is LeBron going to approach me to come up with a dap? Because I can't bring it up to him. When's he going to come to me?

[Stugotz]

Let's assume, because LeBron is, like, the ultimate politician. He comes up and it's like, hey, guys, let's do this dap. And you're like, cool. Oh, my God. You go home. Mom, dad met LeBron today. He made up a dab. I'm going to practice it right now in my mirror. Over and over and over again. And then you see him the next day and you're like, what's up, LeBron? And you get ready to do the dap. And you know the dab forwards and backwards.

[Dan LeBatard]

Like, you think they do the dap in practice and there's no cameras.

[Stugotz]

I think absolutely. Like the.

[Chris Whittingham]

I think they have adapt practice. There's a lot of time. From 1 to 2. Today, it's DAP practice.

[Stugotz]

LeBron doesn't have time to dap practice. He comes up with the dap, and then that's on you to practice it. So the kid practices it. And then the next day he comes and sees LeBron, he's all excited, and they go in for the DAP. And LeBron, in a rare moment of weakness, messes up the dap. If you're the kid, do you correct him or do you just adjust on the fly? Okay, this is now the new.

[Dan LeBatard]

Now you just learned a new dap.

[Chris Whittingham]

What if. Because I assume LeBron creates all the daps, so it's like, this will be ours. What if you don't like.

[Dan LeBatard]

You got a lot of balls to tell LeBron what kind of dap.

[Chris Whittingham]

What if you don't like the dap he created?

[Jeremy]

Well, I just have to, I have.

[Chris Whittingham]

To live with this step. I can't give him notes of like, what if instead we do the elbow hit instead of the. Everyone does the arms locking. Like, let's, let's, let's touch, let's gingerly touch our elbow tips.

[Stugotz]

Kevin Love had the handshake. Do you guys remember that? When everyone had this? And then it was just like a white man, sir. Like, I like that.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think it's because Kevin Love couldn't remember the dap.

[Chris Whittingham]

Maybe he's like, can we keep this simple for me? He's like, I got it.

[Stugotz]

Or maybe, maybe Kevin Love was like, hey, okay, so I'm thinking we could do this. And it says, no, no, no, no. You just get a handshake. Cuz you don't fit in, right?

[Dan LeBatard]

Fit in, don't fit out, don't fit out.

[Jeremy]

I think what makes this complicated is like, if you're gonna practice this handshake, right, we're saying LeBron comes up with it, and then everyone goes and practices on their own to eventually come back to him. Well, the coordination or the choreography of what goes into these, it's really oriented by the height of the person you're doing it with. So if you're not going up against a 6 foot 8 person to be able to do this. It's not going to work out. So do you think that there's a chance that LeBron maybe hires a bunch of six, eight doubles that throughout the beginning of the year training camp, that basically he brings a bunch of LeBron James stunt doubles to training camp, wherever they're having it, so that they can specifically in their off time, practice these daps with each player on the team, respectively.

[Stugotz]

This is exactly like the rehearsal where they had like five different replicas of this apartment and the pilot and the girl that he's trying to make a move on. And it's Captain, what's it, Captain Fears or whatever and the Jennifer Kiss me. No.

[Jeremy]

Yeah, Captain. Captain Fears, I think is what the name was.

[Stugotz]

Captain Powers. Captain Powers.

[Jeremy]

Right.

[Stugotz]

And then.

[Jeremy]

Well, and that only leading, of course, to, you know, Lieutenant and captains that were supposed to be blunt toward each other.

[Stugotz]

I like the idea of hiring people to stand in for me, to prepare everyone else to be around me. What life around me is like. I think I actually need that. I need that. I find that a lot of people are jarred by what my life is, my home, family. Sometimes they're like, what? What do you mean you're getting on another plane? What do you mean?

[Jeremy]

Right.

[Stugotz]

I need like a stand in to just kind of prep them.

[Jeremy]

Right. Not to live your life for when you're not there.

[Stugotz]

No, no, no. That's the multiplicity rule, by the way. Absolutely. If there were a way I could clone myself. Oh my God. 3 5Amines.

[Dan LeBatard]

Lousy movie though.

[Jeremy]

I would never.

[Mike Ryan]

Barry Jackson.

[Dan LeBatard]

Lousy movie.

[Stugotz]

I liked it. I'd have. I'd have five amines. Five amines and we'd run full court. Five amines. But like I would have done this like when I was 30.

[Dan LeBatard]

Do you think there'd be an amine that you like better than the other amin?

[Stugotz]

Yeah, this one right here.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, no, but the guys you're playing.

[Mike Ryan]

With, if there's like a clone amine better than you, would you like that? Because that clone amine is making you look good? Or would you be jealous that clone amine is getting more love than this is?

[Stugotz]

I think this happened in multiplicity as well, right?

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, every clone got dumber and dumber and dumber and dumber.

[Stugotz]

So.

[Mike Ryan]

Oh, would you take out a clone of yourself that you view as a threat to you?

[Stugotz]

A threat to me? Only if you know why.

[Mike Ryan]

And is the threat to you someone that's a worse portrayal of you or someone that's better than you?

[Stugotz]

The only reason to take out A clone is. If that clone hits on your wife. No, not even. Not even if that clone.

[Dan LeBatard]

Isn't that what happened in Multiplicity?

[Stugotz]

Yes, It's a great movie. I don't know why you're shitting on it. It's a great movie. No, if that clone was so smart and also so evil, he was going to take me out first. That's when you got to take him out.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, if you're thinking about taking him out, he must be taking you out.

[Stugotz]

And that's the problem. And that's why you can't clone a meme.

[Mike Ryan]

If you take out your own clone, is that a crime?

[Stugotz]

No.

[Mike Ryan]

Really?

[Chris Whittingham]

I would say yes.

[Mike Ryan]

You can wear clones.

[Stugotz]

Mickey 17. Anyone watch the movie?

[Dan LeBatard]

Should I watch that? I'm interested. Should I watch that?

[Mike Ryan]

Entertaining.

[Stugotz]

It's entertaining.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah.

[Stugotz]

It's not the best movie ever, but it's entertaining.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, well, I was looking for the best movie ever.

[Jeremy]

The voices are great.

[Stugotz]

All right, well, let's go to the guest line. We got the guest line. Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm doing radio over here. Go to the subway. Hot. Fresh.

[Billy]

[Jeremy]

Of course I do.

[Billy]

I make it Miller time.

[Jeremy]

That beautiful white can. Oh, when it's so hot outside, I just put it right to my forehead, right there. And I just roll it sometimes right on the forehead, cool my body down. And then I crack it open. Instant relief. And then that first sip, brother does that first sip.

[Jeremy]

That is a top five sequence of events that you can possibly go through.

[Billy]

I'm just serenity now. When I just imagine that first sip of Miller Light, just thinking about it.

[Jeremy]

It'S making me happy.

[Mike Ryan]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugats.

[Stugotz]

Jacob Jeffries. Jacob Jeffries joins us. Welcome to the show, Jeffries.

[Dan LeBatard]

Welcome to show.

[Stugotz]

Jacob provides Robin's singing voice in the Teen Titans Go to the Movies Movie.

[Jacob Jeffries]

What's up? You guys wrote a couple of songs.

[Stugotz]

Jacob, thanks for joining us. Full disclosure, I'm the one who requested that you be here. Jeremy mentioned that you are. That your involvement with Teen Titans Go, and I love that show so much. And specifically, I love the music. I think the music is very funny and at the same time really good. They don't mail it in. I don't know how to explain this, that people don't watch the show, but a lot of times when you're watching, especially any kind of serial TV show, the songs are just kind of haphazardly slapped together just to get to the point that they're trying to make. And it seems like Teen Titans Go, there's a lot of emphasis on making good music, like songs you actually would want to listen to outside the context of the show. How did you get involved with Teen Titans Go?

[Jacob Jeffries]

Yeah, well, I got to give props first and foremost to my buddy Jared Faber, who he. He's kind of the music creator and he kind of oversees the show itself that you're speaking about. He and I. He's actually a South Florida. He got. He's got some South Florida ties and. Yeah, he lives out here in LA where I am right now. I'm just waking up. Sorry. So thanks for bearing with my. I'm talking slow over here.

[Stugotz]

Got it. You're better than she Killed this Alexander right now.

[Chris Whittingham]

Another Jeremy. That's right.

[Jacob Jeffries]

But no Jared, He's a good friend of mine. We've been writing songs for TV shows together for a while. I didn't really have a lot to do with the TV show itself, but when the movie came along and the offer for the feature film happened back in 2018, Jared called me in to come help write some songs. And I'll just jump to the story, which is we started writing tunes for the movie and the demo ended up being liked more by the. The guys in suits, if you know what I mean. And then they. They actually liked my singing voice more than the guy who's been doing Robin for over a decade. So I. It was just a circumstance. And then I ended up being the singing voice of Robin. So. But I did write two other tunes, one of which Michael Bolton sings in in the movie, which was an honor. So it's pretty funny.

[Chris Whittingham]

Where on your resume do you put Teaching Jeremy everything he knows about music.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, he doesn't.

[Jacob Jeffries]

That is a little bit further down than the teen. Teen. Yeah.

[Jeremy]

No, I get it all. It led to his parody songs here, so couldn't have been that great.

[Dan LeBatard]

Did you know anything about Teen Titans when you were tasked with writing for the movie? And if you didn't, like, do you go back and watch episodes, get a feel for it? How do you do that?

[Jacob Jeffries]

That's a really good question. Honestly, not so much. I didn't know much about Teen Titans. I knew my friend Jared was very involved with it and his friend Michael, or sorry, Peter, his last name is Michael. I think Peter was the creator of it and an old friend of Jared. So I just knew these guys, but I didn't really know much about the show. But that's kind of my favorite place to be is not really knowing what's going on. And then someone giving me a brief like. And then I can kind of. I can kind of like just spitball a bunch of ideas and then they can help shape it with me. You know, I love collaborating like that.

[Stugotz]

Were there any ideas that they were like, okay, that's not really the kind of show we have here. You're missing the point here probably.

[Jacob Jeffries]

I don't really remember. I have like, I'm pretty. I'm not gun shy when it comes to like just kind of throwing stuff at the wall. But is that how Jeremy accident.

[Stugotz]

Yes, that's how he.

[Jacob Jeffries]

In the studio, especially with music. That's exactly right. You can't really have much shame. At the end of the day, it all kind of everyone, you know, everyone dies. I mean, sorry. But what?

[Dan LeBatard]

But what?

[Jeremy]

He gets it.

[Jacob Jeffries]

Yeah. No, you just got to throw stuff out there and then not be embarrassed. But I was gonna say that the. I like whoever said what? But yeah, I think part of what was funny about that process was a lot of the guys and because it's such a big motion, it's a big operation, a lot of. A lot of people have trickle down ideas. And then what I thought was really funny was there were a lot of ideas coming through for the Teen Titans Go movie that were from like the heads of animation department and they weren't really songwriters, but they were like submitting lyrics to us and we were like, what? How did none of these have any rhythm or flow to it? It was all just like dudes that have never written lyrics before. Like, just like, this is a good idea, right? And then they'll send it in and we're like, no, you know There's a lot of that.

[Stugotz]

All too familiar, Jacob, with suits. Trying to tell us how to do our job, man.

[Jacob Jeffries]

Oh, yeah, I'm sure.

[Stugotz]

Hey, quick question for you.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah.

[Stugotz]

Dude, you're a Panthers fan.

[Jacob Jeffries]

Big Panthers fan. I had to wear the hat for the interview.

[Stugotz]

How did you celebrate, dude?

[Jacob Jeffries]

Finally we have a. We have a team. I've been a Panthers fan for. I mean, since their inception. I. How did I celebrate this year? I was actually at game six. I flew in.

[Chris Whittingham]

Yes.

[Jacob Jeffries]

And I was sitting right there behind. Well, unfortunately, I was on the other end of the ice. They were celebrating on the other end. I was on the shoot twice side.

[Chris Whittingham]

Oh, 128. That's where I sit. Where were you at?

[Jacob Jeffries]

I was right above you. I was. I was like, cl. I don't know.

[Chris Whittingham]

Yeah, I think I saw you. I think I saw you.

[Mike Ryan]

What they pay for these parodies?

[Stugotz]

Money over here.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah. Teen Titans go. Money. What's happening?

[Stugotz]

You come out of pocket or did you have a hookup?

[Jacob Jeffries]

No, this is. Come on, man. There's a hookup. I did come out of pocket for the, like, last minute flight, which I rarely do, but I had to do it for the Cats. And. Yeah, this was. It was just. Yeah, it was amazing. I cried last year. This year I was a little more just hyped and adrenal. I had so much adrenaline because I was there. But what. What a turnaround from when I was a kid watching this team and I read an amazing tweet or Instagram post or something that said I just paid $76 for parking during a Stanley cup series game. I used to pay $76 to get me, my wife and two kids into the whole game. Eat, drink, all that jazz. And it's just we've come a long way. I mean, Zito and. Yeah, it's. What a team, man.

[Dan LeBatard]

All right, so you cried last year when they won. Why do you think people crying so much these days?

[Jacob Jeffries]

Covid in general or over sports?

[Chris Whittingham]

General, in general.

[Jeremy]

Just in general.

[Jacob Jeffries]

Oh, man, that's a good question. It's a lot of. There's a lot of stimuli out there, you know, I don't know. People are feeling overwhelmed. Thank you.

[Stugotz]

Our theory is covet over here.

[Jacob Jeffries]

Oh, yeah.

[Stugotz]

I feel like you could just blame Covid for anything.

[Jacob Jeffries]

Yeah, you probably could. It was Covid. Covid's back, apparently with razor blade ferocity and vengeance.

[Stugotz]

Is it?

[Jeremy]

Yeah, I saw razor blade. The strain is called razor blade to where it is. The nice sore throat is supposed to feel like razor blades. In your throat.

[Stugotz]

All right, let me just say this about COVID Number one, it's like a bad, like, 90s movie series where we just keep getting sequels. But number two, the titles are always awesome. Remember Omicron?

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah.

[Stugotz]

And now you got one called Razor Blade. Movies do all the other diseases feel like. Damn, man. Like, these guys are killing all. The flu is just like the flu again.

[Chris Whittingham]

This gout's over here. Like, what the hell?

[Stugotz]

Yeah, gout's still on gout one.

[Jacob Jeffries]

We don't even have one.

[Stugotz]

But, like, meanwhile, these guys are coming out, like, with sequel after sequel. Razor Blade.

[Jacob Jeffries]

Yeah.

[Stugotz]

Cool ass. What a cool ass disease.

[Jacob Jeffries]

These are the. These are like a Power Ranger enemies. Nemesis.

[Dan LeBatard]

Omicron.

[Jacob Jeffries]

Yeah.

[Stugotz]

His name is Jacob Jeffries. You can go to Jacob jeffries.com this week to pre order his new album, you Got the Right Idea on vinyl, which comes out in September. The third single from the upcoming album Worry, dropped earlier this week, wherever you stream music. Jacob, thanks so much for joining us. Oh, before we let you go, should Pat Riley step down? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Dude, that's. I'm just saying, this is. I'm doing show topics with you here.

[Jacob Jeffries]

Yeah, man.

[Chris Whittingham]

He said. Yeah, man. Put it on the scroll.

[Mike Ryan]

Yes. Earlier this week.

[Jeremy]

No, I didn't.

[Mike Ryan]

If you want to.

[Jacob Jeffries]

No, I, I, man, I, man, if it was Panthers talk, I'd be all in, but I think maybe. Okay, wait. I don't know where anybody stands. I don't know what I'm about to say, like how I'm about to rock the boat here, but I will say that maybe there is a time and place to change the guard.

[Chris Whittingham]

What?

[Jeremy]

I don't endorse this anymore.

[Chris Whittingham]

Get this guy out of here.

[Mike Ryan]

Jacob said it.

[Jeremy]

Jacob is no longer my friend, but.

[Jacob Jeffries]

I don't know if now's the time.

[Stugotz]

Oh, there you go. That's kick, save and abuse.

[Chris Whittingham]

Attaboy. Check.

[Jeremy]

Get his album.

[Chris Whittingham]

Check out worry wherever you stream your music.

[Stugotz]

Jacob jeffries.com. jacob, thanks a lot.

[Jacob Jeffries]

All right. Thank you guys so much.

[Stugotz]

That was Jacob Jeffries.

[Jeremy]

Are you guys happy I didn't make a sit down Your Rock in the Boat from Guys and Dolls reference.

[Mike Ryan]

Yes.

[Jeremy]

He said you're rocking the boat.

[Stugotz]

We would. Thank you.

[Mike Ryan]

Jacob did. Yeah.

[Stugotz]

I wanted to ask him whether the Mac Matthew Tkachuk deal was a mistake on behalf of Chris Whittingham.

[Chris Whittingham]

I mean, he's still there if you really want to ask, but.

[Mike Ryan]

No, let's not do that.

[Stugotz]

He's still in the zoom.

[Jacob Jeffries]

He's taking his head no, obviously, very obviously was not a mistake.

[Stugotz]

Well, we got a guy, he's actually a pretty big time broadcaster now. His name is Chris Whittingham and he said at the time the deal is a mistake. And then they won the Stanley cup last year and he said it's still a mistake. And then they won it again this year and he still thinks it's a mistake.

[Chris Whittingham]

He's a loser.

[Jacob Jeffries]

What the heck?

[Jeremy]

He just doesn't know how to not be stubborn. And he's constantly doubling and tripling down on every single take he has. It's just who he is. He also said Giannis was a number two in basketball and I think still believes it.

[Stugotz]

It might be. He might be. Is there. If I give you Chris Whittingham, is there anyone else who is a bigger doubler down than him? Anybody in sports or outside of sports?

[Mike Ryan]

Mike Ryan.

[Stugotz]

I think he's got Mike's.

[Jeremy]

Mike's transition to hand up my bad guy. Nobody likes apologizing more than him.

[Stugotz]

He doesn't do it a lot, but he does it it. That's the point. Whereas witty doubles and triples and quadruples down even as the evidence mounts.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, it has to be witty ahead of Mike Ryan because Mike Ryan's got the whole thing with Brad Marcham. But Mike Ryan still wants the Panthers to win. Chris Whittingham is completely jumped ship and he hates the Panthers now, which is a vomit, obviously.

[Stugotz]

By the way, has that ever happened in the history of mankind? Guy roots for team, guy abandons team, team becomes champion and he's like, nope, I'm not coming back.

[Chris Whittingham]

I've tweeted that it's the worst sports decision in human history and the team.

[Dan LeBatard]

Was garbage for a decade.

[Chris Whittingham]

I'm willing to go take the sports out of that. It is the worst decision in history. Like just give me a worst decision in all of history. Then getting rid of your fandom with the Panthers the moment they traded for Matthew Tkachuk, which is consensus a top trade of like the last two decades in sports.

[Mike Ryan]

This is like a Tyler hero view on history. If you think the worst decision in.

[Chris Whittingham]

History involves the Florida name something, go ahead.

[Mike Ryan]

The worst decision in history.

[Stugotz]

Yes.

[Mike Ryan]

Holocaust is pretty bad.

[Chris Whittingham]

All right.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah.

[Chris Whittingham]

Second worst. Holocaust is worse.

[Stugotz]

Name two name to the election. Okay. All right.

[Chris Whittingham]

No, I think Witty Woody was worse.

[Dan LeBatard]

Put that on the crawl.

[Jeremy]

And that's coming from down the middle.

[Chris Whittingham]

Chris, what was worse for the.

[Jacob Jeffries]

The world?

[Chris Whittingham]

The election. Don't tell or witty.

[Stugotz]

Yes. Juju. Put it on.

[Dan LeBatard]

Say the other one.

[Stugotz]

What's worse for the world. What's the worst decision in human history? The election or Whitty abandoning the Panthers right before they won back to back Stanley Cups. What was the third one?

[Chris Whittingham]

Don't have it. We don't even say it.

[Stugotz]

I didn't hear it because Fuentes was talking in my ear.

[Mike Ryan]

It was definitely worse than the Panthers really was.

[Chris Whittingham]

The Holocaust.

[Stugotz]

Now we have four minutes to kill. Shit.

[Dan LeBatard]

Thank you.

[Stugotz]

Hey, side view mirrors. What's up with that?

[Chris Whittingham]

Finally we get to this topic. Okay, nowadays, all these new fancy cars, you lock the car. What happens to the side view mirrors?

[Stugotz]

They fold in.

[Chris Whittingham]

Basically telling every thief in the world if your car is unlocked. If I forget and leave my car unlocked, what are my mirrors? They're out. If I'm like a guy at the mall and I want to rob some cars, I'm just walking around. If I see the mirrors out, I'm like, that's, that's a chance. And it's just, I don't like the advanced mirrors. I don't like, I don't like.

[Stugotz]

It's just.

[Chris Whittingham]

I get it. It's for. I guess it's for tight parking spaces to make.

[Stugotz]

Yeah. So people aren't smashing your.

[Chris Whittingham]

Are your mirrors getting like.

[Dan LeBatard]

I know it happens.

[Chris Whittingham]

I've never had a side view mirror, like, destroyed.

[Stugotz]

I've had a side view and I.

[Chris Whittingham]

Might every once in a while forget to lock my car. Like, I. I'm not the best with that. Every once in a while I walk back to my car and I left it unlocked.

[Stugotz]

Do you not do the thing. I have the thing where, I don't know, like, it's a Honda Pilot, so it's not exactly like the greatest car ever, but when I walk away from my car, as long as the key fob is in my pocket, it automatically locks. It automatically locks.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, mine too.

[Stugotz]

It makes a little chirp.

[Chris Whittingham]

I wish I did.

[Dan LeBatard]

I'm confused by what my car does when it comes to locking and unlocking. When I have the key, when the key is too close or too like, I don't know what's going on.

[Stugotz]

I hate, I hate when it's like.

[Dan LeBatard]

You just have a key. You open a lock now I don't know what's happening.

[Stugotz]

I won't, I won't lie. Zaz. I do get annoyed when like, I walk up to my car and it's like. And you are like, it's, it's me. I have the key in my pocket.

[Dan LeBatard]

Like, I never know.

[Stugotz]

My car's like, I don't Know who you are, buddy.

[Chris Whittingham]

Every once in a while, the key fob won't work.

[Stugotz]

And then, and then I have to like, you mean this thing? And the car looks. Oh, I mean, oh, of course it's you. And then open. I'm like, what are we doing? I do this every day.

[Dan LeBatard]

And my wife seems to think there's like a button on the handlebar where I don't even need to touch anything on the key. And it's like, I can't get that to work. I don't know what's happening.

[Chris Whittingham]

It only works when you're not expecting it. You walk up and grab your door. It's like you accidentally hear all the doors unlock.

[Dan LeBatard]

Like, what?

[Chris Whittingham]

Yeah, just random. It's just. I just feel like the risk. I don't want someone to be easily. To be walking through a garage and be like, that's clearly locked because I just feel like it's just a little giveaway.

[Stugotz]

But they're not all like that. That's the thing.

[Chris Whittingham]

Maybe not.

[Dan LeBatard]

My car doesn't do that. The windows don't come in.

[Chris Whittingham]

And maybe there's a setting that I could turn it off. I'd love that.

[Stugotz]

But then they would always assume that you're.

[Mike Ryan]

Wait, you don't want people to know your car is locked?

[Chris Whittingham]

I. I don't want them to know.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, he's saying when the mirrors are out that that's a sign that his car is unlocked.

[Chris Whittingham]

So like, and I think now in this, like the space we're living in right now, there's still plenty of cars out there. But like, think about 10 years from now, every car is going to have that. So I just feel like it's a. You're walking through a garage. I can see. Okay, that car could be open. That car could be open.

[Stugotz]

Can I provide a solution for you? You fold in your mirrors at all times, drive with the mirrors folded, and then no one will ever know that it's unlocked.

[Chris Whittingham]

We're spitballing. No bad ideas.

[Stugotz]

I'm just saying, like, hey, you know, back in the day, they didn't, they didn't have mirrors. They had to turn around and look like that. And turn around and look like this. In the Ford Model T, there were no mirrors on that thing.

[Dan LeBatard]

As someone who you.

[Stugotz]

You're drove a Ford model T. Well.

[Dan LeBatard]

You drove back when the. The manual windows. Oh my God, the roll up. You had to turn around to look.

[Stugotz]

I love shaming you out of Uber in Oklahoma. That had the roll up window. Really? Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, I'd get out.

[Mike Ryan]

Roll ups are coming back.

[Dan LeBatard]

But if you, if you. Now, as someone who has driven the old way, if you, if you had to drive a car now where you don't have the cameras, you don't have the auto, like, would you be able to drive that car?

[Stugotz]

I'd be able. I'd be cursing out the car at the hole every single step.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think it'd be hard.

[Stugotz]

There was a point where I still have my old car that didn't have the rear view camera man backing up just to park in the spot.

[Dan LeBatard]

Like turning your head, you got to put the arm on the car, you know, the seats you can turn around. That's hard.

[Stugotz]

That was also a good way to do the move, though.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, yeah.

[Stugotz]

Oh, I'm just trying to park the car, honey.

[Jeremy]

Chris, I have great news. There's a store manager position.

[Mike Ryan]

Boobs on his computer again.

[Jeremy]

There's a store manager position open at Victoria's Secret in Pembroke Pines.

[Chris Whittingham]

I'm in.

[Billy]

Inspector Jeremy, you know something about me, right? You know when I'm grilling outside and it's summertime? You know how I supplement my summertime?

[Jeremy]

Of course I do.

[Billy]

I make it Miller time.

[Jeremy]

Of course.

[Billy]

That beautiful white can. Oh, when it's so hot outside, I just. I just put it right to my forehead right there and just roll it sometimes right on the forehead, cool my body down. And then I crack it open. Instant relief. And then that first sip, brother, does that first hit.

[Jeremy]

That is a top five sequence of events that you can possibly go through.

[Billy]

I'm just serenity now. When I just imagine that first sip.

[Mike Ryan]

Of Miller life, just thinking about it's making me happy.

[Billy]
