Overview

In this raucous and irreverent episode, Dan, Stugotz, and the crew—broadcasting from the Elser Hotel in Downtown Miami—blend their signature blend of sports analysis with comical, sometimes chaotic, pop-culture commentary. The main event is the highly anticipated “Love Guru” segment featuring Greg Cote, who offers (questionable) relationship advice to listeners’ phoned-in questions, while Domonique Foxworth provides both football perspective and comedic color.

e. Getting Time Alone with Kids in the House

• Listener: How to get intimate time when kids “bust in” [28:13]

g. The Clitoris Question

• Listener: “What’s the clitoris and how do I find it?” [37:37]
  • Cote: "We're talking about the hypersensitive neurovascular organ... You can consult Google Maps... A friend of mine once, an Australian man, told me that to fully live life and love, you have to head south and go down under. And that's what I recommend for you, baby." [37:44]
  • Panel: “That’s just useless, baby.” [38:24]

Foxworth’s Super Bowl Week

• On fixing tanking:
