Time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo, what are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true. But even during ad reads like Cuervo, I think you could lay out, especially for one of our great partners, sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion.
Lucy Rodin
Cuervo.
Jon Weiner
So enjoy the tequila that started it all.
Lucy Rodin
Cuervo.
Jon Weiner
Cuervo, the tequila that invented tequila. Roximo Cuervo.
Roy Bellamy
Com.
Jon Weiner
Please drink responsibly.
Lucy Rodin
Cuervo. Welcome to the Big Sui presented by DraftKings. Why are you listening to this show? The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan LeBatard podcast? I'm sorry. I'm not going to 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 that if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys.
Roy Bellamy
I've done it.
Lucy Rodin
And now here's the Marching man to Nowhere Fat Face and the Habitual Liar. We back. And we are joined by the great Lucy Rodin. What's up, Luce? How are you? Hey.
Hannah Storm
I'm sad I'm not there.
Lucy Rodin
I know. Last time I was here.
Hannah Storm
I'm so happy you're in Miami.
Lucy Rodin
It was so much fun.
Chris Cote
You've never said that before, Lucy.
Hannah Storm
I know. This is crazy.
Roy Bellamy
I had an opportunity to play. Look at Me, Lucy.
Lucy Rodin
Was it.
Roy Bellamy
That was a great opportunity, was it not?
Lucy Rodin
No.
Hannah Storm
No.
Lucy Rodin
Do you not know how I know.
Roy Bellamy
What the meaning of it is? But still, I'm like off of the last conversation that we had about look at me, everything.
Chris Cote
No, she's got to brag about something first.
Dominique Foxworth
Can't force it.
Lucy Rodin
He knows. Get off.
Jon Weiner
Can you explain the show to him?
Lucy Rodin
Sorry, I just talked.
Roy Bellamy
This is my first day. Lucy, it's good to see you.
Lucy Rodin
Hi, Lucy.
Hannah Storm
Hi.
Lucy Rodin
You've been enjoying the tournament this year?
Roy Bellamy
The tournaments?
Lucy Rodin
I guess. Yes.
Hannah Storm
Question mark.
Lucy Rodin
Why the question mark?
Hannah Storm
It's. I think we've gotten like decent basketball and that's all you can want out of a tournament. But obviously there's a little. There's a little like bummy vibe when you're like, oh, okay, here we are all one seeds in the final four. No mid majors in the sweet 16 or elite eight for the men. And you're just like, well, this is okay.
Lucy Rodin
I. So I had this argument earlier in the week about people talking about how they want the Cinderella. So what's the point? Why do you want the Cinderella? Because of the story. Or, man, Charlie's gonna chime.
Dominique Foxworth
This is the worst. Take the doctor.
Lucy Rodin
She's like, trap.
Dominique Foxworth
Oh, it's no fun when a Cinderella makes the final four. I just want to see absolute shock. We're gonna have one seeds blowing out two. See, because you got to follow teams.
Lucy Rodin
If you guys. If you guys don't listen to the Dominique Foxhole show, you'll know that Charlie sets these traps for me where he set him yourself, where he completely mischaracterizes what I say and think that I'm just going to walk into it, but I'm not going to do that. So. Lucy, how are you? Lucy? So the. The Cinderellas. What about the Cinderellas do you miss?
Hannah Storm
I don't know. It's just fun. Like we haven't really had. Every year there's sort of a white boy of March where it's some mid major school that has this like insane white guy who just like crazy that the whole country falls in love with. He gets a nil deal with Buffalo Wild Wings or a similar company. Then they lose in the sweet 16 by a lot to a much better team. And you're like, man, that was awesome.
Roy Bellamy
Remember that?
Hannah Storm
Made me feel something. I sat behind Doug Ert at the Duke game and I was like, I. I forgot how great this made me feel. Like it's just like, oh, okay, we have to root for the guys that, like, you have everything.
Roy Bellamy
Look at me. There it is. My problem is I can tell the future. And I knew the brag was coming.
Lucy Rodin
So I guess Cooper Flag. When you say a white boy, you're not talking about actually a boy who's white.
Hannah Storm
It can't. It can't be a white boy that we already know about. It has to be an unknown, unknown white boy. A white boy that appeared out of nowhere. Yeah, we knew about Flag.
Lucy Rodin
No, no, no, no.
Dominique Foxworth
Because I believe underdog Duke.
Hannah Storm
No, he can't go to Duke.
Roy Bellamy
His name can't be Cooper.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah.
Roy Bellamy
Cause Cooper is the white Jalen. If a black athlete is named Jalen, you know, he's good, you know he's nice, you know he's the best on the team. And it's now the Cooper is the white guy version of that. So if it's a Cooper, it's like a.
Hannah Storm
That doesn't apply to the name also.
Lucy Rodin
Oh, speaking of which, when I was watching that last game, I had to look up con canipple just to check the middle name. I had to check the middle name.
Hannah Storm
Do you know his siblings names? No, they're like his. He's one like of the themed families where all the siblings have a weird name that starts with K. So it's like Khan Kane. I'm just making them up. I don't remember.
Roy Bellamy
Is there three of them with K's? Is there three siblings?
Hannah Storm
I think there's five. I think they're like we got to. We got to get these numbers out.
Lucy Rodin
So there was. There was three at one at one point.
Dominique Foxworth
Hold on.
Hannah Storm
There was three at one point.
Dominique Foxworth
His dad and uncles.
Lucy Rodin
Nice.
Dominique Foxworth
Were a three on three basketball team.
Lucy Rodin
The Flying Knipples.
Dominique Foxworth
The Flying Knipple brothers. That's incredible.
Roy Bellamy
That is good.
Hannah Storm
That rules.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah. Chris, you look surprised that I'm going.
Jon Weiner
To have to vet press it here. Might be crowdsourced. I don't know.
Lucy Rodin
No, the Flying.
Jon Weiner
Flying Knipples.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah, that was their nickname.
Mike Golick Jr.
How'd you know it? You said it before he did.
Lucy Rodin
Everybody knew about the Flying Canipples.
Roy Bellamy
They were one of the best teams. Urban legend in the 3 on 3 community.
Hannah Storm
Everyone loves the Flying Knipples. And if you want to go see them play, that's a great reason for a trip that you can book with Priceline. Are you dreaming about that trip? Book it and go to your happy price with price line to see the Flying Knipples.
Lucy Rodin
Way to sell, Lucy.
Jon Weiner
Thank you.
Hannah Storm
Everybody clap.
Mike Golick Jr.
That's when you talk again. She did a thing and now you go back to Hawks.
Jon Weiner
Do you want to explain the show?
Roy Bellamy
Yeah. So. So when she does that, she's done.
Lucy Rodin
Okay.
Roy Bellamy
And then you come in with the Continuation of the conversation.
Chris Cote
Wait, hang on.
Hannah Storm
I haven't.
Roy Bellamy
Versus kicking it back to her.
Chris Cote
I haven't.
Roy Bellamy
To double down on Priceline.
Chris Cote
According to Sporting News, the Flying Knippel brothers were con, Clint, Clay, and Cole. But his brothers are Cagar, Kinston, Cash, and Kidman.
Jon Weiner
This is stupid.
Hannah Storm
Yeah, that's crazy.
Roy Bellamy
What's stupid about it, Roy?
Jon Weiner
It's just dumb.
Lucy Rodin
I'm sorry.
Jon Weiner
No, no, no, it's dumb. The theme is stupid. I'm sorry. We're not doing this.
Lucy Rodin
How do we.
Roy Bellamy
Too many K's.
Jon Weiner
Way too many K's.
Roy Bellamy
Way too many K's.
Lucy Rodin
How do we feel generally about, like, naming conventions for, like. Like, my brother Scott. His name starts with a D. So, like, is that okay? If it's. If it's two, it's just me and him and both starts D. Is that okay? What about people?
Hannah Storm
It's just two.
Lucy Rodin
What about. I'm going into some scary territory right now because I know that Hawk has twins.
Roy Bellamy
Yeah, yeah.
Lucy Rodin
What about when you have twins and they had, like, rhyming names? Did you go rhyming names with twins?
Roy Bellamy
They don't rhyme.
Lucy Rodin
Okay.
Roy Bellamy
They are both Aus, Autumn and Aubrey. So it's. I feel like.
Lucy Rodin
I feel like. With twins, though. I'll allow it.
Roy Bellamy
Yeah, yeah.
Lucy Rodin
With twins all out. Because they got here at the same time, which. You want me come up with two names?
Roy Bellamy
Yeah. My son's name is also Austin. Is that a little much?
Jon Weiner
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Lucy Rodin
Now.
Jon Weiner
Now we're reaching the quarter. Now you're going for something.
Roy Bellamy
Yeah.
Lucy Rodin
And your name?
Roy Bellamy
Andrew.
Lucy Rodin
Ye. And their mother's name.
Roy Bellamy
I didn't want to come out and say this, but I am a part of the Knipple family, basically, because all of my siblings are A's and all of their kids are A's.
Lucy Rodin
Wow.
Roy Bellamy
And I can't even name them all because I would have to sit here and think about it, but it's Artrell, Alicia, Anika, Avery, Andrew. Our kids. Can you do Aubrey Austin? Azari Italia. Aria. Anias, Asiana.
Lucy Rodin
That's impressive, man.
Roy Bellamy
And it goes on. And my. My mom's name is Aletha. My dad's name is R. Trust. So it's literally like four generations of every A name you can imagine.
Jon Weiner
It can only be in the DMX voice from here on out.
Lucy Rodin
Lucy, you have a brother, right?
Hannah Storm
I do.
Lucy Rodin
Just one brother.
Hannah Storm
Jack. I have a brother and a sister. Jack and Kate.
Roy Bellamy
Okay, so right down the middle there. Lucy, Lucy, Jack, Kate.
Hannah Storm
And we're all four letters.
Chris Cote
Those are the.
Hannah Storm
My mom said our Last name was so ugly.
Chris Cote
Okay, they're all gonna go to Duke. Oh, get used to them.
Lucy Rodin
Look at all those.
Hannah Storm
They're the plumweets.
Lucy Rodin
Now, the problem with making Con canipple or trying to make him the white. The white boy of the tournament is not just that he goes to Duke, is that the white boy or tournament has to go professional in something else. Like Con Canyble's gonna play in the NBA. You cannot. He has to. You have to see him later in life in a polo and slacks and be like, that name sounds familiar. This guy tried to sell me some insurance. Oh, yeah, you hit six threes in 1996.
Roy Bellamy
Yep, yep, I agree. You have to. Yes. You have to go that NCAA commercial where it says most of NCAA athletes will go professional in something else. It has to fit that bucket. Otherwise you're just another great white guy from college basketball that goes and plays in the NBA 15 years.
Jon Weiner
In something else. In something else and just peters out right there. It's something other than sports. In something else.
Roy Bellamy
In something else.
Jon Weiner
Give him some time. Not everybody knows in college.
Dominique Foxworth
Remember Jack?
Hannah Storm
Figure it out.
Lucy Rodin
Let the rest.
Chris Cote
He played in the G League.
Hannah Storm
Great white boy.
Dominique Foxworth
He's in the G League now.
Chris Cote
He's averaging like three points a game.
Jon Weiner
Lucy, what am I to do with the SEC narrative? Especially when 25% of the ACC teams made the final four in the men's side.
Lucy Rodin
Oh, gosh.
Hannah Storm
There was someone at the Duke Alabama game that was screaming behind us the whole time of like, you mighty sec. You don't know what you face. Obviously the SEC is they were the best team or conference in college basketball this year. And the ACC is ass. Like, it's just objective and they're just kind of entirely banking on Duke being a good program. I love sort of the theory of the ACC combining with the Big East. I don't know valid that is, but I think that's something interesting to look at in the future.
Jon Weiner
But that's something that's been happening. There have been real conversations there. It does make sense for basketball. No doubt.
Lucy Rodin
The biggies, they need it.
Hannah Storm
Just they're so bad.
Lucy Rodin
The biggies. I know, the nil. There's like new rules coming to nil with revenue share coming up pretty soon. There's an article I read recently that talked about how the future of basketball in college could be heavily tilted towards the Big east because they do not have football teams. And so when the revenue share situation comes, each school is going to have about $20 million, right? 20 to split amongst all of their sports. And so in football it's normally going to be like 80%, 75 to 80% towards football because the revenue generating sport in most major schools and then the rest will be divvied up amongst basketball and the rest of the sports. But the Big east teams, they don't have major football programs. So they're projected to be spending 6, 7, 8 million dollars on their roster per Big east team against the rest of college basketball that will be spending four or five or maybe six million dollars. So we could be looking at a future where the Big east is like the basketball conference and then the rest of these teams are essentially relegated to being like trying to be spoilers or Cinderellas.
Hannah Storm
No, I think that's absolutely fair. And I see why the ACC is kind of trying to capitalize on that right now. Because the ACC has been the premier basketball conference. That is what the ACC is known as. And that has not been the case the last few years. The SEC has completely taken over. 12 has taken over. The ACC just isn't competing the same. Obviously you can kind of play that into the fact that Roy Williams isn't there anymore. And, and I know Duke's been very good this year, but there was, you know, concerns about Coach K being gone. But when you look at the ACC right now and just where they stand, where they've just redid their entire revenue model based off of what Clemson and Florida State wanted with football, just because they're in a weird spot where no one seems to be particularly happy, it seems like a good idea to attach another way for teams to make more money for the ACC to be more competitive because right now they' just falling behind and they're grateful that Cooper Flack decided to go to Duke because that's the entire savior of their conference. Had Cooper flag knock on a Duke. Had they not been a good team, what would have their tournament appearance been? Clemson losing to McNe State like that was it. The ACC is not a good conference. But if the ACC decides to join the Big east, we'll have some great basketball games. And do you know where you should get tickets for those hypothetical basketball games?

Now you go again.
Hannah Storm
That's an undercover great two for two. Use Code Lucy.
Lucy Rodin
You cooking Lucy The I had something to say but Hawk threw me off.
Roy Bellamy
That's what I thought.
Jon Weiner
You're doing really great, man. You're doing really great.
Lucy Rodin
It feels good. So I got good news. I got good news for you.
Jon Weiner
Where is this going?
Lucy Rodin
No, I got good news for you, Mike.
Jon Weiner
Oh, for me?
Lucy Rodin
Yeah, for you. Okay, so the article I was talking about, they're gonna introduce a Deloitte Run clearinghouse for NIL deals now.
Jon Weiner
Yeah, that's not great, but it's gonna.
Lucy Rodin
Turn out to be good news for you, Mike. Yeah, so the clearinghouse is going to make sure that all of the NIL deals are above board and actually deals for name, image and likeness, not just ways to funnel money to players. And so this article I was reading was talking about how the salary cap, essentially the revenue sharing and the renewed strictness on the NIL deal is going to create a situation where. Get excited, Mike. We might be going back to under the table deals. Miami's back.
Dominique Foxworth
The U is back.
Jon Weiner
We've been doing just fine with the rules.
Roy Bellamy
Yes. Yeah, you were doing better with the end of the paper.
Jon Weiner
I just. I've had a huge issue with the entity that has tried to undermine NIL and lost over two dozen court cases fighting nil. All of a sudden just having full autonomy over nil. It doesn't seem right, Mike.
Roy Bellamy
I'm with you, Mike.
Lucy Rodin
Get your ass under the table. Where Miami belongs. Y'all love it under the table.
Jon Weiner
Taylor's there.
Roy Bellamy
Come on, Mike.
Jon Weiner
I don't. I don't think Glory days. I don't think a clearinghouse may necessarily bring a fair market for athletes. And also I'm a little confused. I understand why everybody is marching forward with Rev Share. There is still things pending. The Supreme Court will probably rule on this. And look, there's few things bring both sides together quite like a mutual hatred for the NCAA they do have. While everyone's just pushing forward as if this is going to be a certainty. There have been Supreme Court justices that have been on the record anti ncaa. So it's not the slam dunk that that they think it is. I'm kind of confused how the whole machine just keeps moving forward as if this is a foregone conclusion. Probably is moving because they feel like they have it and that's why they brought in a politician to oversee the entire thing. But the entire thing makes me feel really bad. And there's so many things going on that people are just gonna ignore it. And I think a lot of a free market is going to get squashed in this. I just. And I don't see how they actually have the time to get to everything. They're going to completely create a new template inside of a Couple of months before football season and think it's going to get messy.
Lucy Rodin
It's not over. It's going to change a number of times in the next few years before we get to some sort of steady state. Combining amateurism with business is never going to work as smoothly as they want. But I think the peak college sport right now is women's basketball. We didn't talk much about that, in part because juju's out. But I do want to wonder if the South Carolinas like close games against great teams like Maryland and other teams. Should we be concerned about South Carolina going up? I guess UCLA was the favorite going into the tournament though, right?
Hannah Storm
Yeah. So it was a kind of a choose between South Carolina or UCLA for the number one overall seed. And UCLA does have a head to head win over South Carolina. I personally thought South Carolina should have gotten the number one overall seed, but the way South Carolina has played in this tournament hasn't necessarily helped that case. So South Carolina beat Duke yesterday 54:50. They had almost as many turnovers as, as baskets in this game. Like it was not a stereotypical South Carolina win. They had a similar style of game against Maryland the week before where they're eking out these close wins. They were down at half to Maryland and then in the round of 32, the same thing happened with Indiana. They were down at half again. It was the first time. And I can't tell you how long that South Carolina had trailed at halftime for multiple games within the tournament. Obviously doesn't matter though. They're advancing to their fifth final, fifth straight Final Four. It's one of those things where like, you can look at this South Carolina team the way you probably haven't been able to the last few years and it's very obvious they have some glaring weaknesses that are very beatable. However, watching any of those games, I, I was hoping for an upset because it'd be fun. But the entire time I knew South Carolina is going to win. Don Staley Like South Carolina, they have a tendency to squeak out these close games whenever they're playing in them, which they don't haven't been doing much over the last few years. But this a team that got their ass kicked against UConn and has been pretty much unstoppable since Gotcha. The tournament and now has been playing with their food a little bit. I think with juju getting hurt, obviously that opens up some, some area for South Carolina. It's probably going to be a South Carolina Yukon Final Four. Obviously UCLA has looked really Good. I think they looked great against lsu and I think the key to how good they looked against LSU was that Lauren Betts was in foul trouble and someone else stepped up and that's what UCLA needs. I can't tell you how many times I've turned on a UCLA game. And you see the little stat in the corner, that's Lauren Betts, her stat line, rest of team and they're always the same. So I just think that even though they've been messing around, it's South Carolina. And I'm not going to, I'm not going to doubt South Carolina. They are a great basketball team. They're just playing kind of ugly right now, but who cares if you win?
Chris Cote
Yeah, I think Duke plays that style of basketball where it's defense heavy. They're going to force you to turn the ball over and they're really going to limit your ability to, to make shots. And half of the South Carolina team is really young. Like it's a very like mixed, mixed age group right now. And a lot of the players that were on the team last year, primarily like Camila Cardoso who is a WNBA lottery pick, she's gone. So they're trying to like fill in with a couple players that are a little bit younger. But if they, if Texas or TCU wins tonight, I think South Carolina is going to be favored over either one of them. They just beat Texas two weeks ago in the SEC championship and completely like destroyed them. So I think that like if you're unfamiliar with the style of play of Duke women's basketball, that's sort of the kind of game that you expect. Like they try to give themselves a chance by like keeping it in there with defense and having these super low scoring rock fight games. But South Carolina ultimately is just the better team. So they won.

Hannah Storm
Don LeBatard I just texted my best friend Hannah and asked her who she thinks is gonna win tonight. And she has never watched a hockey game this entire season. She's picking the Rangers. And she's an astrophysicist. She's real smart.
Mike Golick Jr.
I'll text Joey.
Dan LeBatard
Dan, you know what I found out about Hannah today? An anagram.
Lucy Rodin
Stugats.
Jon Weiner
You said Anna or Hannah.
Hannah Storm
Hannah.
Jon Weiner
Okay, I don't know.
Dan LeBatard
Anna 2, depending on how you spell it.
Dominique Foxworth
Even though there's two ends.
Dan LeBatard
It's also an anagram. Same with one end. Anna. Anagrams are fun. A Hannigram.
Roy Bellamy
This is the Dan Levatar show with the stugats.
Lucy Rodin
Lucy, do me a favor. You got your phone near you?
Hannah Storm
Yes.
Lucy Rodin
Okay.
Hannah Storm
Look up my phone case.
Mike Golick Jr.
What kind of question is that?
Lucy Rodin
Oh, nice phone case.
Hannah Storm
Isn't that cute?
Lucy Rodin
It is very cute. Where'd you find it?
Hannah Storm
Case defy. No Freedom.
Lucy Rodin
Oh, okay. It was. I mean, I. I think stories behind where you find things are normally more interesting than. I just bought it, but it's fine.
Hannah Storm
Yeah, I just bought it.
Lucy Rodin
So go to your Uber and find your Uber rating. While you're doing that, Charlie, I also. I also contacted Pablo, Dan, and David Sampson to get their Uber ratings. So, Charlie, please run down the list of ranking. Who you think has the highest to worst Uber rating? Hold on, Lucy, don't tell us yours.
Hannah Storm
Wait, I have it.
Lucy Rodin
But, Charlie. You have it. You ready? All right, Charlie, put him down.
Dominique Foxworth
I'm starting at the top. Highest to lowest. Okay, so it's a better reveal.
Lucy Rodin
Number one.
Dominique Foxworth
Okay, I'm going. Hawk. Ooh, football players are on time.
Lucy Rodin
He's a receiver, though.
Dominique Foxworth
Oh, it's a good point.
Roy Bellamy
He's a receiver, and I feel like everyone's on my time always.
Dominique Foxworth
All right, well, I put you in the number one spot. That might be Hand up. My bad.
Roy Bellamy
Let's be honest with you, man.
Dominique Foxworth
Number two.
Roy Bellamy
I get there when I get there. That's just my life mantra.
Dominique Foxworth
Wow. You and I.
Lucy Rodin
He's a receiver.
Roy Bellamy
I'm just telling you, man, Party starts when I get.
Dominique Foxworth
I've spent so much time with Dominique where he just gives me legitimate anxiety for being 10 minutes early. This stuff that I just assumed. This is a full football trade. We've had Mike Golick Jr. On our show before, and he's also there 15 minutes early, but he's a guard. And a guard. Sort of like a slot corner.
Roy Bellamy
Yeah, yeah, let me. Let me rephrase that. If. If somebody else is paying. Yes. Ten minutes early is late. If I'm paying, I get there when I get there. There.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah.
Roy Bellamy
You know what I mean? Like, so Uber. Like, hey, hey, I'll be down there.
Lucy Rodin
All right.
Roy Bellamy
Okay, go ahead.
Dominique Foxworth
I, like, peek out the window for an Uber to make sure I don't make them wait, because I just.
Roy Bellamy
That's crazy.
Dominique Foxworth
Yeah.
Lucy Rodin
No, I.
Dominique Foxworth
It's problematic.
Lucy Rodin
Well, I'll save my Uber story. So after you get to your. Your list, because I want to know what you think.
Dominique Foxworth
Number two, I'm putting Jess Jess.
Lucy Rodin
Shocking.
Roy Bellamy
I like Jess at two.
Chris Cote
Why is that shocking?
Lucy Rodin
I don't know. I guess it's just my own experience with my wife. The Uber rating is not. I mean, the.
Jon Weiner
No, keep talking.
Hannah Storm
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Dominique Foxworth
I'm with Dominique.
Jon Weiner
No, no, don't do it, man. Don't do this.
Lucy Rodin
No, he's.
Dominique Foxworth
This is. I'm with Dominique on this.
Jon Weiner
That's how this goes. It's a trap.
Dominique Foxworth
I got the same issue. I know what it is. I got the same issue.
Roy Bellamy
They're women.
Lucy Rodin
No, no. Give them a hand. A five. Don't leave. I've told my wife, when we're going out, you call the Ubers because I hate making the Uber driver wait. When we go out, you call the Ubers. When we are coming home, you call the Ubers. I ain't calling no damn Uber because I've called it a couple times, and you make me look like an asshole. I gotta walk out there and sit in the Uber for five minutes and make conversation with this guy because I feel like a jerk, Hawk.
Dominique Foxworth
That's why I'm peeking out the window. I need to know when I have to go and have the conversation to buy the extra five to seven minutes.
Lucy Rodin
That is.
Roy Bellamy
Nothing worse than having to have the conversation.
Mike Golick Jr.
That's my move, though. You go out there and you're, like, apologizing to the group.
Lucy Rodin
You're like, sorry about these people.
Mike Golick Jr.
They're coming. I know they're in the bathroom. I told them to come outside. Don't. This is not. This is my rating here. Please don't.
Roy Bellamy
Me and your wife are from the same fraternity because I am the. How much time do we have? 15 minutes? 10 minutes? Okay, cool. At minute nine, go put my luggage in the car, because then they won't pull off with my luggage. And then I got them locked in. And then we wait another 10 minutes until I'm finished with this phone call.
Lucy Rodin
Your Uber rating is definitely the worst. All right, Charlie, rattle through hopefully some more.
Dominique Foxworth
All right, I'm going. Go a little faster now. Dominique is third. Respect for time. Yep. Fourth, I'm going with Billy, who I think is oddly polite with strangers. Fifth, I'm going with Roy.
Mike Golick Jr.
I don't like where we're going with this Billy.
Lucy Rodin
We don't have down the list. I don't know that I have Billy's, but. Okay.
Dominique Foxworth
Okay. Fifth, I'm going with Roy. I feel like he's never, ever been like, hey, actually, you took a wrong turn. Actually, there's a better route. He's Just cool with it.
Roy Bellamy
What did I do to you?
Mike Golick Jr.
Charlie, we'll get to you, Big red.
Dominique Foxworth
Fifth, I'm going with myself because I know my Uber rating. Sixth, I'm going with Lucy. I think she's probably got some one stars in college. Maybe a couple issues.
Hannah Storm
That's actually fair.
Dominique Foxworth
Yeah, the young people are tough. Seventh, I'm going with Tony. I feel like he probably.
Mike Golick Jr.
I'm worse than Tony.
Dominique Foxworth
Tony is like. Have you heard this Joe Rogan podcast? I think we should put it on that JFK thing. Yeah.
Roy Bellamy
8Th.
Dominique Foxworth
8Th is Mike. Mr. Oxcord himself.
Mike Golick Jr.
Horseshit.
Dominique Foxworth
9Th is.
Jon Weiner
Is.
Dominique Foxworth
Is Chris. Chris.
Mike Golick Jr.
I think many people are on this list.
Dominique Foxworth
Chris, have you paid the 250 fine for throwing up in the back? No, be honest.
Mike Golick Jr.
I have not.
Lucy Rodin
Oh, Lucy has. Lucy has.
Hannah Storm
Twice.
Roy Bellamy
Twice. Wow.
Jon Weiner
I'm liking my chances now.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah.
Hannah Storm
Love the University of Iowa. Go Hawks. Great time.
Mike Golick Jr.
Someone below me.
Roy Bellamy
Chris is actually 10th, just so you know, your numbers are low.
Dominique Foxworth
Actually, I am gonna bump Chris down to 10 because I forgot David Sampson has to go somewhere higher. Just cause I know he's standing outside anxiously one minute before the Uber arrives and walks and goes. Hey, how was your day?
Roy Bellamy
No, no, no, no, no. It's not a good take because if the Uber is late, he's giving him hell. The app said you'd be here two minutes ago.
Dominique Foxworth
I know. No, no, no, no. I'm telling you this from the angle from. From the Jewish Diaspora anxiety thing. David is more worried about his Uber rating than anyone else on this list. He cares more about it.
Roy Bellamy
And yet you have him at 11.
Dominique Foxworth
No, I moved him up as that was. That's my bad. I forgot to include him. All right, let's put him fifth, right? Pine. Roy. Okay, I put. I put. Dan is not applicable. I'm shocked if he has the Uber app on his phone or knows how.
Lucy Rodin
To call an Uber.
Dominique Foxworth
There's no way.
Mike Golick Jr.
I imagine Dan, like, on the wrong side of the hotel. Like, I don't know where to go.
Dominique Foxworth
He has a. He also definitely has a black car driver that he knows that calls and schedules the night before he needs to.
Roy Bellamy
Is that a black car driver or a black car driver? Either way, I'm not sure.
Dominique Foxworth
That was also some Dan wordplay.
Jon Weiner
There we go. There we go.
Lucy Rodin
Slam. Dan is in the building.
Jon Weiner
His name is actually Leroy.
Mike Golick Jr.
Can we reveal now? Can we reveal our numbers so I can get a victory lap here?
Lucy Rodin
Well, all right. We got two more. We got Pablo and David.
Dominique Foxworth
I got two more. Next is Pablo. He is always late and I just do not think he cares about his Uber rating or about drivers having to wait for him or about him, you know, if.
Lucy Rodin
Hey, the rule for Pablo is if you ain't famous, I don't fool you.
Dominique Foxworth
That's a crazy mantra. If there's no value for it. Yeah, he's not going to give his best.
Lucy Rodin
He got it tatted on his chest.
Dominique Foxworth
And the last one. The last one's a mean like. Come on, give me a. Give me a break. Give me a break, man.
Jon Weiner
Spit. Take.
Mike Golick Jr.
That's fair.
Roy Bellamy
Hard to argue.
Dominique Foxworth
Just him mumbling drunkenly to an Uber driver for a 30 minute ride to the airport every time he leaves Miami.
Lucy Rodin
Somebody texted me to see if he could get us his Uber rating. Because I did text him. I just text Pablo, David, and Dan. All right, now we got it. Let's go around the room.
Roy Bellamy
Who's gonna pencil this list in?
Dominique Foxworth
I'll write him down.
Roy Bellamy
All right, this is tough.
Lucy Rodin
Starting with you, Charlie. What's your rating?
Dominique Foxworth
487.
Mike Golick Jr.
Imagine that.
Lucy Rodin
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
Jon Weiner
All right, Mike, it's real bad. It's real bad.
Roy Bellamy
What is it?
Chris Cote
Show me your phone.
Jon Weiner
It's 4.75.
Roy Bellamy
That's real bad, huh?
Jon Weiner
I've been building it up. At a certain point I was like, all right, let me just start over. I'll be a Lyft guy. I gotta reclaim my reputation here because I'm always the guy that gets the Uber XL for the group.
Roy Bellamy
Can I make a choice whether to do Lyft or Uber?
Lucy Rodin
Nope, it has to be Uber UBS only.
Jon Weiner
Oh, come on. Both of them. Jessica worked really hard on my reputation.
Chris Cote
On Lyft, I have a perfect 5.0.
Roy Bellamy
There's no way.
Lucy Rodin
Get out of here, Smetty wop Woo.
Roy Bellamy
You might be the first person I've ever heard of that's impressive to have a 5.0uber rating.
Lucy Rodin
Roy, what you got, buddy?
Jon Weiner
Well, for Lyft, I have a 5.8.
Lucy Rodin
No one asked me about that. Nobody asked about that.
Jon Weiner
And me too. Uber, I have a 4.97. Get him wrong superlative. So I don't know who that one driver was, but, you know, you can kiss my ass.
Roy Bellamy
I was probably the guy who did the voiceovers.
Mike Golick Jr.
Yeah, Chris, mine's higher than Charlie's. Oh, 4.92.
Roy Bellamy
Four nine two.
Mike Golick Jr.
Charlie forgets how. Just damn, how damn nice I am.
Lucy Rodin
You are affable and friendly.
Roy Bellamy
Hey, how's it going?
Mike Golick Jr.
How's your night going?
Lucy Rodin
You probably start with a four because you wobble in there. Drunk. I'm sorry, man. I'm a little drunk. But then once they. But then.
Mike Golick Jr.
You having a good night, though?
Dominique Foxworth
You having a good night?
Chris Cote
Chris also revealed to us once that when the Uber drivers are talking to him about, like, weird stuff, he'll just kind of nod along and smile and agree with them, even when they're saying.
Mike Golick Jr.
Whatever you're selling, I'm buying down the middle, Chris.
Lucy Rodin
It's like, oh, conspiracy theory. Give me some of that.
Mike Golick Jr.
And look at me. I get a lot of it.
Dominique Foxworth
I hadn't thought of it that way. Great point.
Lucy Rodin
Vaccines, smack scenes, maybe.
Roy Bellamy
Black people are so loud, man.
Dominique Foxworth
It's crazy.
Mike Golick Jr.
See that guy wearing a mask? I can't believe he's still wearing masks.
Roy Bellamy
He's doing the same thing.
Lucy Rodin
All right, Lucy, what's your rating?
Hannah Storm
I'm a 4. 9 6.
Roy Bellamy
Ooh.
Hannah Storm
Despite what I did in college, I think that's the most impressive.
Lucy Rodin
That is incredible.
Roy Bellamy
To have thrown up in an Uber three times.
Hannah Storm
Only twice. Only twice. Speak.
Lucy Rodin
No.
Roy Bellamy
Have thrown up in an Uber twice.
Lucy Rodin
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Roy Bellamy
Gotten that Fine.
Lucy Rodin
In your defense, Hawk, if you thrown up in an Uber two times, you probably don't remember the other two times.
Roy Bellamy
Exactly. I completely agree.
Lucy Rodin
You got four OOB vomits to remember.
Roy Bellamy
Two of them with the fine. And there's gotta be something. You didn't get fined for, like, a couple words, and it just splattered on the seat in front of you and you just left as if you didn't know. Cause you didn't see it.
Hannah Storm
You weren't supposed to happen in five years.
Roy Bellamy
All right.
Lucy Rodin
Oh, I love that. Comeback player of the year. All right, Andrew, I'm nervous, man. I saved you for this.
Roy Bellamy
I'm not as bad as Mike. I'm not great.
Lucy Rodin
Oh, okay, that's good.
Roy Bellamy
I'm four, seven, eight. I tip well, too, though.
Jon Weiner
That was my 40 time high school.
Roy Bellamy
Okay, that's.
Lucy Rodin
There's no such thing as an accurate high school 40 times.
Roy Bellamy
No.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah, you were fine.
Jon Weiner
No, no, it was four, seven. It's like a full second faster than Restrepo.
Lucy Rodin
I ran to 4, 3 in high school and then got to college and they clocked me and it was like four, six.
Roy Bellamy
Yeah, you got, as a freshman, stronger and lost.
Lucy Rodin
Point, four six. All right, well, let me see who we got here. So Lucy and Charlie. Oh, no, Charlie, what was yours? 8 7.
Dominique Foxworth
4, 8, 7.
Lucy Rodin
So Pablo is a 84484. Dan is a 48 5.
Mike Golick Jr.
That's Valerie.
Lucy Rodin
Dan is a 485 and David is a 487 Put me next to you.
Dominique Foxworth
At your darkest moment, Mr. Uber Driver.
Jon Weiner
That's a good impression. This is tough. Can we do lift next? Can we please do lift next, please?
Lucy Rodin
Hold on.
Jon Weiner
So can't get higher than I am.
Chris Cote
So Lucy's thrown up in multiple cars, and yet Uber drivers around the country are like, we'd rather have Lucy than Mike.
Roy Bellamy
Honestly, bro.
Lucy Rodin
Lucy. Lucy is a lot like Chris. I think is that they're probably really fun to talk to and. And the Uber drivers like them. Well, the one.
Hannah Storm
Well, that's because I lie.
Lucy Rodin
You lie.
Roy Bellamy
See, just like Chris.
Hannah Storm
That's how you make crazy stories.
Roy Bellamy
You guys.
Hannah Storm
Are you guys getting.
Mike Golick Jr.
Are you guys getting into life debates with your Uber drivers? Just let them talk.
Roy Bellamy
Not alone. No, no, no, no.
Hannah Storm
You guys stuff. I have to say something.
Roy Bellamy
No.
Hannah Storm
One time an Uber was like, I think you would love this girl. Her name is Candace Owens. And I had to be like, no, we're not doing this.
Jon Weiner
Stephen A. Was your driver.
Lucy Rodin
Love.
Roy Bellamy
Co. Perpetuate. Perpetuate. People pleasers is what you guys are like.
Lucy Rodin
You don't have to be. Yeah, hold on. Not Lucy.
Chris Cote
You guys should be taking advice from me. First of all, because I have a perfect score. The way to do this is just you don't talk. You just sit there and you nod and you smile politely. That's all you do.
Lucy Rodin
I never have very long conversations with the Uber drivers. It's cool. But I am a part of the dot nine crew. I got a 4.9. Who else? It's me. It's Charlie. Lucy, Right?
Mike Golick Jr.
Not Charlie.
Lucy Rodin
Kevin. I mean, not Charlie. Excuse me. Chris. Lucy. And da boy. Roy. Dot nine. Boy.
Roy Bellamy
Is Roy short for Leroy?
Jon Weiner
No.
Roy Bellamy
Okay.
Jon Weiner
Royceph.
Lucy Rodin
Actually, no.
Roy Bellamy
Roytholemew.
Jon Weiner
No.
Lucy Rodin
Royal Alexander.
Jon Weiner
No.
Roy Bellamy
I like how you made 4.9 a crew just because you're in it.
Jon Weiner
No.
Roy Bellamy
That is the unconscious bias that this. That America is built on of like, oh, if this is my thing, other people have done it to make it more important than everyone else. Because it's not a five. We have a five. Zero. So there's no reason to call out a 4.9 crew. But yet he made it a thing.
Mike Golick Jr.
We all know the four nines are strong.
Jon Weiner
You got to treat it like a 40 time in high school.
Roy Bellamy
Yes, you round up.
Chris Cote
Not as strong as a five, but yeah.
Lucy Rodin
Roymond.
Jon Weiner
No.
Lucy Rodin
Not strong of the five. Get out of here.
Chris Cote
What would your hockey nickname be?
Hannah Storm
Roy.
Roy Bellamy
Roy. Roy.
Lucy Rodin
Roy.
Jon Weiner
Probably the King.
Mike Golick Jr.
Bells.
Lucy Rodin
Belly. Belly Bells.
Chris Cote
Oh, it would definitely be Belly or Bells.
Jon Weiner
Yeah. Good Call Hawk would just be Hawk because they wouldn't add a Y to that because it'd be like hockey. No, we can't.
Roy Bellamy
We can't call hockey. Hockey at hockey. That's nuts.
Lucy Rodin
All right, Loose. Thanks for joining us. I'm going to let you fly. I appreciate it. What's your shirt say?
Hannah Storm
It says Chaos.
Lucy Rodin
That's what I bought. Oh, Chaos. Lacrosse club. All right, Luz, you got anything else you want to sell before you go?
Hannah Storm
No, I already did a great job.
Lucy Rodin
You did an awesome job. Bye, buddy.
Hannah Storm
Thank you. Bye.
Lucy Rodin
So what's the most surprising score?
Dominique Foxworth
We don't have Samson's score.
Lucy Rodin
I gave you Samson score. He. Sampson had a very high score.
Roy Bellamy
8 something. I was actually surprised at how low his was.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah, he had a 4, 8, 7. He's not. He's not a not. He's not a dot 9 boy.
Dominique Foxworth
Same as me. That's a tough scene.
Roy Bellamy
Yeah.
Dominique Foxworth
Real tough scene.
Roy Bellamy
Yep.
Lucy Rodin
What do you do in Ubers? How do you ruin your.
Roy Bellamy
Do you guys mark no conversation on your Uber? Yes, yes, of course I mark no conversation. And my wife will tell me I'm hard on it because I do not want to talk. Not because I'm. It's more my social anxiety because the whole having to get to the conversation and I'm typically doing something else. I want to work in the Uber.
Chris Cote
There's only certain places where Uber drivers tend to talk more than not talk. It's very city dependent. You get in an Uber in a big city, generally you're not really chit chatting. You get in an Uber, maybe you're on a work trip somewhere. It's a little smaller town. They're like, kind of curious about you. Why are you coming to my town? That's where the conversations happen.
Mike Golick Jr.
In Miami. They're on the phone and like, you'll learn it. Like four minutes in, you'll just hear.
Lucy Rodin
Them like, yeah, the Uber driver. Yeah.
Mike Golick Jr.
And like, oh, they're. Are they talking to me? Oh, no, they're on the phone.
Jon Weiner
The person's just on speaker and they're just like listening along. Just listening along the whole ride. Like they're not actually communicating. But he's just like, I'm here for you, man.
Mike Golick Jr.
Seven minutes in, they're like, yeah, I agree with that.
Lucy Rodin
That.
Mike Golick Jr.
And it's like, who are they talking to?
Lucy Rodin
Are you. So Mike is the worst.
Mike Golick Jr.
Mike is Mike's friends.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah, Mike's friends.
Jon Weiner
Yeah. I mean, I will allow. I almost exclusively left too.
Lucy Rodin
So. Yeah. Okay.
Jon Weiner
Mike, that's like out of seven you're the.
Roy Bellamy
That makes it worse.
Lucy Rodin
You're the only one. You're the only one. I'll allow you to introduce your lift.
Dan LeBatard
Why?
Lucy Rodin
Score?
Roy Bellamy
Because I was right behind them. We're part of the 4.7 gang. That is nothing. 4.
Lucy Rodin
7, bro.
Jon Weiner
Exclusive than the Ford now 5.0 and lift. Sure, like, close to 800 rides. Yeah.
Lucy Rodin
Congratulations, man. You're not. You're not.
Jon Weiner
I worked hard on that. Worked hard on that because I found out one time, like, my Uber driver told me, you know, your rating's pretty low. I'm like, what? I was shocked to hear that. And then I was, like, trying to figure out exactly how I got to that point. I'm like, I'm never really the problem, am I?
Lucy Rodin
How low was your rating at that point?
Jon Weiner
It was, like, in the 5. What?
Lucy Rodin
Yeah.
Jon Weiner
Like, it was like, 4.
Mike Golick Jr.
5.
Roy Bellamy
Yeah.
Jon Weiner
4.5. So I'm really doing a lot of work on myself.
Chris Cote
And it's just because he wouldn't stop talking about Miami Hurricanes football.
Jon Weiner
When I say no conversation, it's to protect my rating.
Roy Bellamy
I have also 5.0 and Lyft, in case you were wondering. Okay.
Mike Golick Jr.
They hand those out on that thing?
Roy Bellamy
Apparently. Everyone five.
Lucy Rodin
Oh, and Lyft. They tried to get you guys to come over, steal the car in order.
Roy Bellamy
To get a bad rating.
Jon Weiner
Your lift ratings, though, because for some of you, I mean, there's only one way to go.
Mike Golick Jr.
I don't even have Lyft.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah, I don't know that I even have Lyft. I feel like I downloaded at one point.
Roy Bellamy
My name on my Uber is also not my name, so I wouldn't be able to prove that it's my profile.
Chris Cote
Do you have a fake name, like Roy?
Roy Bellamy
Yes.
Lucy Rodin
So does Pablo.
Roy Bellamy
You guys don't go fake names.
Mike Golick Jr.
Roy's name's Jack Spade.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah.
Jon Weiner
I'm going to get you, sucker.
Lucy Rodin
So, I mean, the point of having a fake name, you can't say, he.
Jon Weiner
Checks in a hotel, say the name.
Lucy Rodin
Isn't that the point?
Roy Bellamy
Yeah, it is. So people don't know your identity. You can't now give it away that you are Jack Spade on, on all your rideshare apps.
Jon Weiner
Every hotel I go in, is there a Jack Spade?
Lucy Rodin
Which of these is the most surprising? I feel like, I mean, Jesse's five. Oh. Shocked me. That's incredible.
Chris Cote
I'm not like your wife, it turns out.
Lucy Rodin
Apparently not. We are different.
Jon Weiner
But Uber was around when you were in college, so, like, it was very respectful.
Lucy Rodin
I, I, I would like to ask for a retroactive 90s pardon for being sexist. We can. I just would like a sex pardon. We didn't at some point.
Dominique Foxworth
Should I dig into how can you pardon be granted? Because Lucy's is still the shock most shocking. 496 with a double boot.
Jon Weiner
Well, you know what? Maybe.
Roy Bellamy
Maybe they're like.
Jon Weiner
Maybe they're really smart about when they order the Uber. Like, maybe she's not feeling great. Like, you should probably get this one so it goes on someone else's ratings because I'm not at my best.
Roy Bellamy
Also, how many rides? We should also put that into consideration because if you only have two Uber rides, you have a high rating. I'm less impressed.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah.
Roy Bellamy
Whereas if I have a in the 4. 7 gang. Full life.
Lucy Rodin
Hopefully. Hopefully not for life.
Roy Bellamy
Never get.
Jon Weiner
Never getting that 5.0 is in lift asterisk.
Roy Bellamy
We should see how many rides you have.
Chris Cote
How do you do that?
Roy Bellamy
I don't know. My lift tells me right away.
Jon Weiner
Tells me.
Roy Bellamy
Yep, I have 106 lift rides.
Lucy Rodin
I would. I would love. Did anybody text Amin and find out? Amin and Tony. So maybe I guess in the next segment we'll get in a mean and Tony, because somebody has to undercut my buddy Mike. I believe that between Amin and Tony, one of them is going to get under Mike. Right.
Jon Weiner
Man, that's pretty low. That's a pretty low rating.
Lucy Rodin
Who do you think is lower, Amin or Tony?
Mike Golick Jr.
Amin.
Jon Weiner
Amin.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah.
Roy Bellamy
I think Amin is lower for sure.
Lucy Rodin
I think Tony's lower just because I felt bad the way that y'all jumped on my dog.
Jon Weiner
Tony can be a charmer.
Lucy Rodin
Yeah, fair point.
Chris Cote
And Tony, think about his friends.
Dominique Foxworth
I have a. I have a text from Pablo. Ask Mike if his Uber driver handed him a survey full of the anonymous thoughts of other Uber drivers that drove him in an attempt to make him more likely likable. Your thoughts?
Jon Weiner
I don't. I don't want to indirectly talk to Pablo. Weather is starting to warm up. Regular season starting to wind down. Games of consequence in sports starting to ramp up. I know what you're gonna need by your side. It's by my side already. Miller Lite. Yeah, that's right. I'm making my springtime a Miller time. I'm making my sports time. Miller Time.

Hannah Storm [02:40]: "There's a little bummy vibe when you're all one seeds in the Final Four. No mid-majors in the Sweet 16 or Elite Eight for the men. This is okay."
