Episode Overview

In this “Local Hour,” Dan Le Batard, Stugotz, and the crew dig into a meta, self-reflective episode rooted in recent on-air controversies and audience reactions. The show explores the dynamic between show members, the role of “tone” in media critique, uncomfortable personal questions, and the blurred lines between sports, pop culture, and politics. There’s ongoing ribbing about the expectations of New York sports media, the Greg Cody enigma, the shifting relationship with Stugotz, and the peculiar intimacy of sharing their lives with listeners.

Key Discussion Points & Highlights

1. The New York Media & Dan’s “Tone Problem”

• Dan’s Aggregation Anxiety
  • The episode opens with Dan expressing a desire to avoid being “aggregated,” a nod to how their commentary often gets spun off by sports and pop-culture media ([00:00]).
• Caricature of NY Sports Media
  • Stugotz jokes about Dan’s picture of New York Giants beat writers as “champions of democracy,” when they’re really “some tired beat guy wondering what he's going to have for lunch” ([00:16], [02:00]).
  • Chris Cody and Tony mock the idea of the NY media as “all the President’s Men”—rather than watchdogs of democracy, they’re just there for “free food” ([02:14], [02:43]).
• The Tone Debate
  • Chris Cody’s insistence that New York media should ask “tough questions” of Giants QB Jackson Dart is lampooned for being both strident and redundant ([10:59]).
  • Quote:
    • Chris Cody: “I thought it was the most benign thing said most stridently. The New York media should ask Jackson Dart a question. I mean, nobody disagrees with that, do they? But I didn’t say it that way.” ([25:42])
  • The team teases Chris that despite being “right,” his “tone” turns everyone against him and ruins the fun ([25:10], [28:45]).

2. Show Dynamics & Family Criticism

• Behind-the-Scenes Banter
  • The team riffs on pre-show rituals, including Stugotz’s ever-growing list of “sayings” and a tangent about “the Name Game” ([00:59], [03:09]).
  • Playful accusations about complaints at the bowling alley—Chris confronts the group about “complaining” about him, leading to talk of generational friction ([01:45], [09:46]).
• The Greg Cody Paradox
  • Greg Zaslow shares how his wife, new to the show’s lore, is “horrified” by Greg Cody’s on-air coughs and lack of “radio professionalism” ([04:17], [06:26]).
    • Greg Zaslow: “She’s confused as to how he’s a regular on a very big, you know, radio show... but seemingly doesn’t understand anything.” ([07:55])
  • Chris says this is common for newcomers—the acquired taste and confusion over Greg Cody is a “rite of passage” for listeners ([07:54]).
  • The group jokes about Greg Cody’s enduring popularity despite his quirks (“My mom thinks you’re the best part of the show. She thinks you’re the star.” – Tony, [09:07]; “That’s a woman.” – Stugotz, [09:10]).

3. Uncomfortable Questions—The Tables Turn

• Mock “New York Media” Grilling
  • Dan encourages the crew to “pin down” his own dad with tough questions, parodying the demands made of public figures ([09:46], [11:46]).
  • The segment devolves into meta-comedy, with Chris and others ribbing Dan and each other about their tone, hypocrisy, and willingness to be held accountable ([14:36], [25:00]).
  • Quote:
    • Dan Le Batard: “We have some tough questions for you, by the way. And by we, I mean the New York media.” ([11:53])
• Intimacy and Vulnerability
  • Greg Zaslow narrates the surreal experience of watching himself on YouTube with his critical wife and describes being “cucked” in his own home by Greg Cody’s charisma ([20:14], [22:44]).
    • “You did some great work as a great professional radio host. Cody beat you with a song in the middle. You took us into your bedroom; you gave us maximum intimacy… and Greg Cody stole the money.” – Chris Cody, ([22:44])
• Audience Curiosity and Handling Stugotz’s Absence
  • Dan is faced with direct (and indirect) questions about Stugotz’s future with the show. While he tries to protect Stugotz’s privacy, he reveals that their business relationship is “complicated” by sponsorship issues ([34:10], [35:03]).
    • Chris Cody: “This has been… crushing to me. Imagine how much I must value that relationship… It hurts. I want his name on this show forever. I have worked in protection of that. He knows this.” ([36:11])

---

4. Sports and Political Discourse Mash-Up

• Jackson Dart, Trump, and “The Times”
  • The group debates whether it’s fair to expect Jackson Dart to answer for his public support of Trump, and why the media seems hesitant to go there ([27:14], [28:05]).
  • Juju offers a succinct framing:
    • “I think that Jackson Dart, you willingly stepped into that arena. So now we're going to ask you, oh, why were you so willing to step in that arena?... I think the correct question to ask him is why?” ([28:05])
  • They mock the coded phrase “in these particular times,” and joke about everyone having already chosen sides ([26:06], [27:46], [28:06]).

---

5. Pop Culture, Absurd "Tough" Questions & Relationship Talk

• Rapid-Fire Absurdities & “Cuck” Jokes
  • Dan and Tony unleash a barrage of “uncomfortable” questions on each other: weight, foreplay preferences, hypotheticals about dating ideologically-opposed women, etc. ([30:07], [30:34]).
    • Quote:
      • “If you were single—hottest woman, but she's MAGA—do you hit or no?” – Tony ([30:49])
      • Chris, deadpan: “No, you don't. Rookie.” ([30:58])
  • They joke about “cucking” in sports and reference an old “Curb Your Enthusiasm” episode for comparison ([31:08]).
• Madison Beer, Justin Herbert, & Keeping Up with Youth Culture
  • The group gets sidetracked on a video of Herbert’s girlfriend, with Greg Cody—surprisingly—the authority on modern pop culture ([41:18]).
    • Greg Cody: “My granddaughter calls me pop culture. I mean, you know, I’m just—I know everything about everything going on.” ([41:40])
    • Billy prefers to frame Herbert’s behavior as “supportive, not a cuck” ([42:32]).

Closing Thoughts

This “Local Hour” is an ultra-self-aware, comic group therapy session as much as it is a sports talk show. The hosts dissect their own roles, the friction of doing “important” content with silly delivery, and the personal stakes of public vulnerability. Critiques of media, pop culture, and each other tumble out in rapid succession. As usual, the show is as much about the personalities and their meta-relationship with the audience as it is about the actual topics—leaving plenty for long-term fans to laugh about and plenty for newcomers to scratch their heads over.

Transcript

[Dan LeBatard]

Dad, I kind of want this show to not get aggregated today.

[Stugotz]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

How come, like, yesterday's did.

[Stugotz]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

Okay, let's just bring the temperature down a little bit.

[Stugotz]

Way down. I mean, how do you propose to do that?

[Dan LeBatard]

I mean, we should have the New York media pinned Dan down.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, the New York media was portrayed in a funny manner yesterday. I thought Dan was acting like these Giants beat writers are, you know, champions of democracy and out to save America from the abyss. And I just picture some tired beat guy wondering what he's going to have for lunch and wondering when the hell he gets to cover a winning team. But you never know.

[Dan LeBatard]

You do never know.

[Stugotz]

You never know.

[Chris Cody]

Why are you so winded? Why are you so winded?

[Stugotz]

I'm not winded.

[Dan LeBatard]

Just carrying the show.

[Stugotz]

Dan, seriously, I got a show on my back here.

[Chris Cody]

Did you get nervous?

[Stugotz]

Nervous? I don't get nervous. I get even.

[Dan LeBatard]

Not the saying.

[Chris Cody]

Can I tell you. Can I tell you what, guys? What just happened before we turned on the microphones, because it's unbelievable. He was ready to go and start the show, and he was alerting everyone in the room, as you saw this, right? Yeah, he was alerting everyone in the room that he was ready, got in front of the microphone and then said, do it till you're satisfied. Said it loud. Said it to himself, and I'm like, that must be in the top 20. He's like, oh, no, I forgot.

[Dan LeBatard]

We stumble on a new one every day.

[Stugotz]

I don't think that's even on the list.

[Chris Cody]

So he went and wrote it down and. And so now. But he's already got his list of 60.

[Stugotz]

I know, but now it's 61.

[Dan LeBatard]

70 is a possibility.

[Tony]

69.

[Stugotz]

There you go.

[Tony]

Do it till you're satisfied.

[Stugotz]

There you go, baby.

[Chris Cody]

What were you guys talking about in the bowling alley yesterday? I overheard from sources nearby that you and your dad were complaining about me at the bowling alley.

[Stugotz]

You know, I wouldn't say complaining. I would say just making fun of you.

[Dan LeBatard]

Commenting.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, commenting. That's a nice neutral phrase for it. Yes. You got a little. You got a little agitated, Got a little, you know, worked up. I've seen it before.

[Juju]

So you did what to the New York media?

[Chris Cody]

I told them to ask Jackson dark questions. And this is what the. This is what the reaction.

[Juju]

But the context that Greg has given me is that you're, you know, having them be champions for democracy. And that whole thing that you do, it was more.

[Dan LeBatard]

You were sweating while saying it.

[Tony]

It was like. It was like he thought that The New York media, the New York Giants media was like all the President's Men.

[Stugotz]

Right?

[Tony]

You know what I mean? Like Woodward. Bernstein.

[Stugotz]

Exactly. These are beat guys. They're tired. They just want to cover a winning team for the first tongue sandwich.

[Tony]

They're there for free food.

[Chris Cody]

This is what he's saying that the thing. The thing that he just did is. It is a bunch of tired guys who look like starve who just want to get to the nearby deli for lunch and just write a couple of paragraphs about the jets and kill the rest.

[Dan LeBatard]

They're turning them into Oprah.

[Tony]

They gotta ask the hard questions.

[Chris Cody]

What is the Nicknick Bobick?

[Stugotz]

It's the. It's a 60s song. The name Game. Nick. Nick Bobick. Banana Bana Bofic. Me. My momick.

[Greg Zaslow]

Okay.

[Chris Cody]

Rosanna Banna. Vanna. Rosanna. Rosanna Banna Banna.

[Stugotz]

I'm the kind of guy that. Who made it the salad? Hey, Butterfinger. Who made it the salad? Nick. Nick. Bobby. Who made it the salad? Georgia.

[Chris Cody]

That's not correct.

[Stugotz]

Very good.

[Chris Cody]

It's a parrot that says very good out of the side of its mouth.

[Stugotz]

That's correct.

[Chris Cody]

What does this have to do with the Name Game?

[Stugotz]

I'm not going to take a quiz. Who made it the salad?

[Chris Cody]

Me.

[Stugotz]

My moment. We're rolling now. Huh?

[Chris Cody]

That's not correct.

[Stugotz]

Doesn't make it right. Don't go showering to try to please me. Brilliant. No, I mean the song. I don't mean my role in it. It's just well done, well put together, that kind of thing.

[Greg Zaslow]

I'm having an interesting experience on a nightly basis now, Dan at home. So my. My wife. My wife's trying to be supportive, all right? Trying to be supportive of me and my career. And so she likes me to play her back a lot of the show. We'll watch it on YouTube in the evening now.

[Dan LeBatard]

That'll end soon.

[Tony]

Bad idea.

[Greg Zaslow]

We're doing it, like, on a nightly basis.

[Tony]

Hey.

[Greg Zaslow]

It's been going on for a while now. And she only wants the funny parts. Like, she doesn't want the sportsy stuff. It's not for her. But what. We'll watch a lot of the shows. And so the days of the week that Greg is here is a really weird experience that I'm watching on the couch with my wife. It's uncomfortable. Couch.

[Dan LeBatard]

Because she's into my dad.

[Stugotz]

Huh?

[Dan LeBatard]

So they start to love him. They do.

[Greg Zaslow]

Like, okay, that hasn't happened yet. All right? Like, maybe we'll get there. It hasn't happened yet. She's like, utterly confused with him. You know, me. And we've, we've, we've gone through the history of this plenty on this show. I, for years, did not appreciate Greg's appearances because he's not a radio person and he constantly makes mistakes and like, it's almost like he doesn't take it seriously. But at least, at least I understand what's going on here. My wife has those same opinions and like, she doesn't understand how it's, how he's allowed to be here.

[Tony]

What do you mean allowed? Well, like, he's a legend.

[Greg Zaslow]

Well, she doesn't know that. But like yesterday, like yesterday, for instance, when he, he, he, he, he coughs and he can't breathe. All right, and, and he can't get out any of the words. I didn't tell my wife that that was about to happen, that that was coming up.

[Chris Cody]

She's never seen it happen on television. Right. She's never watched a paid professional program anywhere where it's happened to a broadcaster. Right. Where it's just a sentence in and he just starts coughing and then you don't understand the rest of what he said.

[Greg Zaslow]

So he does that and my wife is horrified.

[Tony]

Can I, can I make just one comment that I feel every time I hear that I get kind of annoyed by. Is that his, like, whatever he said about getting the Joker, it really does overshadow the full throated joke that I think you guys heard in your ears, but the rest of the audience doesn't. Doesn't hear now.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, that's a private show you guys did that was funnier to you guys. To an audience that didn't hear it. They would have been great if they'd heard it.

[Tony]

It was on Mike. But he, he overshad it.

[Greg Zaslow]

So my wife was horrified when he started coughing like that. And she just goes, what? Why is that allowed?

[Chris Cody]

She said it out loud.

[Greg Zaslow]

To me.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, to me. But she said out loud. Why is that? What? He's coughing. He's been coughing for 10 years around here. It's like part of the, it's part of the show. It's one of the, it's one of the accents.

[Tony]

Copd.

[Greg Zaslow]

She doesn't understand how, like, why wouldn't that be? And I know it's a live show, obviously, but why wouldn't that be edited out? What, What. Why is that okay for him to do that?

[Tony]

And does she understand this at all?

[Chris Cody]

No, but this is. No, wait a minute.

[Stugotz]

This doesn't get the show.

[Chris Cody]

No.

[Stugotz]

Whoa.

[Chris Cody]

I would not say that. I would say this is almost every relationship of any listener I've listened to in our audience. It's how their significant other ends up getting into the show. Why is the person I love so fascinated by this and find it so funny? I want to understand this weird Zaz language. I'm not going to do it with wrestling, and I'm going to do it with. Why is Cody there?

[Dan LeBatard]

Like, she.

[Greg Zaslow]

She's confused as to how he's a regular on a very big, you know, radio show, podcast, whatever you want to put it, but seemingly doesn't understand anything.

[Stugotz]

Yeah. Your wife doesn't want to learn. She didn't want to earn.

[Chris Cody]

She does want to learn because her husband wants to earn.

[Tony]

Juju's like, ah, that's his queen right there. I don't know.

[Greg Zaslow]

She's really confused.

[Dan LeBatard]

The days that you should tell her that he once had hundreds of people lined up to look at his toenail.

[Chris Cody]

Thousands. No, it was more than was that.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, I'm talking about money I could have made.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, you blew that, Zaslo. What Zaslo. Just what Zazlow's wife just realized with Discovery is what Zaslo realized once upon a time when he was a producer at the start of everything we were doing here, and Cody was on the show, and he'd get. Why is he there? Isn't it the same thing?

[Dan LeBatard]

Yes. Then he would sing a song and yes.

[Greg Zaslow]

Like, okay, I'm watching my wife go through all of the emotions and opinions that I had 20 years ago about Greg's appearances.

[Stugotz]

I come around to people, though, you know, I'm an acquired habit.

[Tony]

My mom thinks you're the best part of the show. She thinks you're the star.

[Stugotz]

See, that's a woman.

[Dan LeBatard]

So does mine.

[Stugotz]

That's a woman.

[Juju]

What is that supposed to mean?

[Chris Cody]

Put on the poll at Lebaton show. That's a woman. Yes or no?

[Juju]

Little sensual for my taste.

[Stugotz]

I mean, this early. I mean, I love people who love me.

[Chris Cody]

Well, this is it. It's the. It's had the trump. It has had the inverse effect on me. The more he sits next to me, just like my dad, the more people like him and the less they like me. And it's because of what happened the last couple of days that you guys were whispering around at the bowling alley when you got the drinks in you and started talking real, honest, loving talk last night.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think we should get the New York media on my dad. Maybe then the people will see the real him.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, they should investigate me.

[Tony]

Were you like this, Dan as a kid.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's it. That's the question.

[Chris Cody]

What does that mean? That's such a broad question. Was I strident and got in the way of my obviously right and righteous points?

[Tony]

Yes.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tony]

But what was Christopher Columbus really doing?

[Billy]

But why would we buy eggs from them?

[Tony]

Mom,

[Greg Zaslow]

I just imagined last night at bowl, like, I want. I want to know how it started. You know, you, Chris, you and your father are at the bowling. Maybe you got a pitcher in front of you. Like, does one of you turn to the other go, so damn.

[Dan LeBatard]

There's not even words needed. It's just a look, and

[Stugotz]

we know we've seen it before.

[Billy]

It's like, that's your man's now. That's your man.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, that's yours. Like, that's yours now.

[Stugotz]

Somebody's got to deal with it.

[Tony]

Don't make it right.

[Chris Cody]

But can you share it with me? Would you guys be kind enough to share with me the criticism? Because I don't know what the criticism is. I just know that your son today told me that my tone was bad yesterday.

[Stugotz]

It was awful. Yeah, it was really bad. Even more so than usual, which is saying something. No, I just felt like you were assigning duties upon these New York beat writers that they probably don't want. You know, they cover a football team. They're not looking to save democracy. What they want to do is find out whether what Jackson Dart is doing, how that plays in the locker room. I do think that's a legit story for them for from their perspective is whether or not it affects the chemistry of the team. And that's the head coach's concern. He doesn't care about politics. They don't care. Even the ones who came out against him, Abdul Carter and such, they don't really care about politics. They're just wondering about divisiveness in the locker room, which is a legitimate concern.

[Dan LeBatard]

Dan, why are you trying to save democracy?

[Tony]

Democracy dies in darkness.

[Juju]

Jordan Renan. They're fighting for democracy, right?

[Dan LeBatard]

We have some tough questions for you, by the way. And by we, I mean the New York media.

[Chris Cody]

This is my. Oh, this is my punishment for the last couple of days.

[Billy]

Tough questions.

[Dan LeBatard]

We're the New York media, and we ask tough questions. Was I drunk when I did that? Maybe.

[Chris Cody]

So you got home from the bowling alley drinking with your dad, complaining about my tone. None of which you did anything about yesterday when working and not drinking?

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, my face said a lot.

[Greg Zaslow]

Biggest game in 20 years.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, that's not on that level. I kept it together.

[Chris Cody]

I, I, I need, I need content from Tamara watching him. Like, I need to see what that.

[Greg Zaslow]

So do I set up a camera.

[Chris Cody]

She's gonna have so many questions. Like she would. She's gonna have so many questions about happening with Greg Cody.

[Greg Zaslow]

She's offended the way that I used to be offended.

[Chris Cody]

Well, I. You used to be offended that Greg Cody was such a big part of the joke as everything that we were doing at the very centerpiece that he's become the star of the show. And you don't understand why he keeps getting rewarded for.

[Greg Zaslow]

How does he not know to speak into the microphone? How does he not know that there's a clock? I, like, I just, I didn't get it.

[Juju]

Hold on again, to Greg's defense here. People that are just watching you for the first time and seeing all of your idiosyncrasies are like, how is this guy allowed to do stuff? Maybe my wife is one of those people. She's like, what's, what's up with this guy?

[Greg Zaslow]

Okay, I have. I may have video syncrasies, which is debatable. I may have idiosyncrasies, but no one's going to say, I don't know how to do my job. I don't know how to do radio.

[Juju]

Well, these are the times that you don't speak into the mic. The mic falls. You don't turn on the mic.

[Tony]

Remember you went to take a poop for like 45 minutes.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, that's true. You're prone to the malaprop.

[Dan LeBatard]

I guess we're just ignoring this bed of asking damn tough questions.

[Tony]

Do it.

[Dan LeBatard]

Go ahead.

[Chris Cody]

You came home drunk. I just want to set the scene.

[Dan LeBatard]

You want to hear it again?

[Chris Cody]

You're. Wait a minute. You are at the heart of America, Chris Cody. Always down the middle. You and your dad are at a

[Dan LeBatard]

good old down the middle, Chris.

[Chris Cody]

American bowling aller, Illinois. No. Heart of a bowling alley.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, that is the heart of America.

[Stugotz]

If you've been in this bowling alley, lane 34, we represent the blue collar also.

[Dan LeBatard]

The red is represented there as well.

[Chris Cody]

Put it on. The poll at Lebaton show is the heart of America at your local bowling alley. Like, what do you. Don't look at me like I got this wrong. You guys are drinking beers at the local bowling alley and you're complaining about what you hear, that you agree with that Levittard. You agree with him. But God damn, was he an asshole and annoying about how he delivered all that.

[Dan LeBatard]

What I'm really like is, like, what Questions did he want from the like New York media? These tough questions. And then I was like, I got an idea. I'm gonna go home and make this

[Billy]

Tough questions, tough questions.

[Dan LeBatard]

We're the New York media and we ask tough questions.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

You do that on your phone?

[Dan LeBatard]

No.

[Greg Zaslow]

Do you ever, do you ever get embarrassed? Like, you get home last night, you're gonna go, you go to your laptop

[Dan LeBatard]

7:45pm and I'm in my office doing this.

[Tony]

Yeah.

[Greg Zaslow]

Do you get embarrassed or like I, I don't want my wife to walk in right now and see what I'm doing, hear what I'm doing, and then I've explained because I, I get that all the time.

[Dan LeBatard]

She's upstairs reading smut, so she wasn't worried about what I was doing.

[Stugotz]

Her time's better spent reading.

[Dan LeBatard]

That's all she does, dude. Ever since this heated rivalries, all she does is watch.

[Greg Zaslow]

My wife's in the same boat.

[Juju]

It's canon now.

[Tony]

Okay, we gotta just say there's stuff here. We're not going to get into it.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, no, there is honestly some good stuff.

[Juju]

Oh, she doesn't know.

[Dan LeBatard]

Fist me, guys.

[Juju]

She doesn't. Do you know that Chris is married to a.

[Tony]

Guys, we're going to allow.

[Juju]

Chris is married to a twin.

[Stugotz]

He did just say that.

[Tony]

Fist me, guys.

[Dan LeBatard]

We don't need to go down the twin rabbit hole. Tony, thank you.

[Juju]

Patricia doesn't know. I want to give her the lore.

[Greg Zaslow]

The lore.

[Stugotz]

Legend lore.

[Greg Zaslow]

The lore. Tony, you know that moment at a party or at a tailgate where everything

[Chris Cody]

just sort of clicks?

[Greg Zaslow]

I know it.

[Juju]

Well, it's usually when I show up, everybody goes crazy.

[Greg Zaslow]

Yeah, you usually take all the credit for it. But it's because Tony usually walks in with Cuervo.

[Stugotz]

Walk in like this.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Greg Zaslow]

Cuervo is a thing that turns hanging out into this is the night.

[Juju]

It has that effect on people.

[Greg Zaslow]

It does. You usually take the credit for it, but again, it's the Cuervo effect. It's like that moment in a big game where everyone in the crowd just starts to standing up. Hootin and hollerin'. Keep it Cuervo.

[Stugotz]

Keep it Cuervo, baby.

[Chris Cody]

every time you're watching this you recognize that your wife is laughing, that she married. She married Larry David.

[Stugotz]

I do, yeah. One of the great characters in the history of television in My humble opinion and, and to my credit, my personality,

[Chris Cody]

in my humble opinion. Followed by to my credit, to my amazing.

[Stugotz]

My personality.

[Chris Cody]

Just amazing.

[Stugotz]

Predate curve. Your enthusiasm stugats.

[Chris Cody]

Oh, wow.

[Stugotz]

I'm not going to say Larry David patterned himself.

[Chris Cody]

You copy? All right, put it on the poll please. Juju did Greg Cody copyright being an asshole long before Larry David.

[Billy]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugach.

[Chris Cody]

So that was the production the Chris Cody decided to make. And they're tough questions. You've got a series of tough questions. Because I do, I do think, and this may be deflection on my part. I'm here for the analysis on you guys telling me how I did my job poorly the last two days. I'd actually like to spend some time in that playpen. But also Zaz has been coming in multiple days saying, my wife is mad at me about this a couple nights ago. And now my wife doesn't want me in the bedroom.

[Greg Zaslow]

I'm having a tough week.

[Chris Cody]

It doesn't want me in the bedroom today. And I, I think there are uncomfortable questions to be asked there as well,

[Tony]

you know about that foreplay.

[Greg Zaslow]

Well, so on Monday, this is a couple nights ago, right? On Monday, it's 8 o' clock and obviously I watch my stories at 8 o' clock on Monday night. WWE, Monday Night Raw. And so my, my son and I were in the family room and the show is starting and, and I tell my wife, I go, hey, you can sit down, come on, my stories are coming on, come watch. She's like, what the hell are you talking. Oba Femi is on this. I go, come on, Oba Femi. And my son and I were doing the strut and my wife was mortified and she goes, you know what? You're out there asking for a couch. You want somebody to sponsor you and get you a new couch here for the family room. I'm gonna buy you a trailer. I'm gonna buy you a trailer for you to live in. You're gonna live in a trailer for now on. So that's. So she wants me to live in a trailer. Alright? And then last night, this is, See, this is some bullshit. Last night I go upstairs, it's not even late, it's like the middle of the second period in the hockey game. But I want to watch in bed, obviously on the iPad. And I go upstairs into the bedroom. My wife's already in there, lights are out, she's trying to go to sleep. But Dan, she's not asleep yet. Apparently her New thing is she has to fall asleep before I come in the bedroom.

[Dan LeBatard]

I don't know why it's a thing. I'm aware of this.

[Stugotz]

I can relate.

[Greg Zaslow]

She's not asleep yet. Okay. All I want to do is lie in the bed, obviously tummy time with the tablet on my stomach, and watch the hockey. Dan. I don't even put sound on the iPad. I could watch it on mute. No big deal. I understand what's going on.

[Chris Cody]

Sports are bright, though. They're very bright.

[Greg Zaslow]

I put the blue light down. All right. It's on my iPad. She wouldn't let me stay in the room. I have to leave altogether until she falls asleep. I went into the. I went in the Zaslow mansion living room. Cause I wanted to lie down. I'm lying down on a couch in the living room, not even watching a tv with the tablet on my stomach. Instead of the tablet on my stomach in the bedroom, I now have the tablet on my stomach in the living room.

[Chris Cody]

So if I were to dissect what just happened for your wife. Okay. You did some great work as a great professional radio host. Cody beat you with a song in the middle.

[Dan LeBatard]

Get that whole story.

[Chris Cody]

You took us into your bedroom, you gave us maximum intimacy. And Greg, Cody stole the money. Walked. You are a cuck. He walked. He walked into your bedroom and just sang a song. And that would explain to your wife why it is he's so good at this.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, she liked that. Your wife. When I went trailers for.

[Greg Zaslow]

That is some what. What just happened.

[Tony]

And he looks aroused.

[Chris Cody]

It's so unfair. He. He was not trying to help Zaz. He just.

[Dan LeBatard]

He had the thought. He heard trailers. Timing was awful. It wasn't even good timing. He heard trailers and just sang it.

[Juju]

Not only that, he just. Inception. He just did a meta on Zaz. A double cucking. Because a double talked about in the future tense. Your wife like that. So now when Zaz watches that tonight, she's going to be Greg Cody be talking directly to her, and then she's going to look at Zaz and be like, I did like that.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, we're gonna have the whole bit. Yeah.

[Chris Cody]

For 20 years, the most confident Zaz I know is the one who knows that he's got the good stuff and he's got the ball and he's doing solo. He did not expect with a parasol for an old man to walk into his bedroom singing a song and take it. Take the segment. Take the segment from him with a

[Stugotz]

syllable, a couple of syllables, and that kind of stuff. Doesn't go away. Next time Zaz and his. His bride are, you know, making love.

[Chris Cody]

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

[Stugotz]

Somebody's gonna hear that. No, in matter of fact, no, no, let him cook. That can be part of Zaz's foreplay.

[Chris Cody]

No, keep going.

[Stugotz]

But you have to whisper though. No, you whisper like this. Trailers for sailor, that kind of thing.

[Billy]

I guarantee you Zaz is going to think about you next time.

[Stugotz]

He's in focus.

[Greg Zaslow]

That's the worst part. That's the worst part.

[Stugotz]

Best part.

[Chris Cody]

Did you just breathe self satisfied in the microphone? Like after taking. Taking. Well, you made it that way.

[Stugotz]

It could be because I'm drinking coffee.

[Chris Cody]

No, it's because what you're talking about.

[Tony]

It did sound like he was like needing a cigarette.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, I could use a cigarette.

[Chris Cody]

Did we just get an old man all hot and bothered? Is that what just happened?

[Stugotz]

Takes more than that.

[Chris Cody]

I was talking about Zaz.

[Stugotz]

Oh, okay.

[Chris Cody]

So I deflected masterfully. Go ahead. So what was wrong with the way I did the show the last two days?

[Dan LeBatard]

I feel like we've covered a lot of it so far.

[Stugotz]

Just your tone, honestly, it was the tone.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think that's what. In all seriousness, what we were saying is like a lot of the stuff you were saying we agree with, but it was just like. I feel like it gets lost in your tone. But you've heard that forever. So I don't know what we're going to do at this point. You are who you are.

[Billy]

The people basically were saying online, where was all this smoke when your homegirl was the headlines?

[Greg Zaslow]

Well, and I would. I saw that too, Juju. But I like, that feels like a very false equivalency. Like you're not demanding answers, you're demanding questions.

[Chris Cody]

I mean, I thought it was the most benign thing said most stridently. The New York media should ask Jackson darts a question. I mean, nobody disagrees with that, do they? Like, but I didn't say it that way.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Right.

[Stugotz]

And you said that they should make him uncomfortable, which I think was a little bit of a red flag to some people.

[Chris Cody]

Okay. But I mean, in these particular times, like it's the meekest of things.

[Tony]

Here we go. We can't say in these particular times. So that's like that part has to go.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, that's coded. Yeah. What kind of times do you mean exactly?

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

These.

[Juju]

The end times.

[Tony]

Dies.

[Billy]

He means woke.

[Tony]

I mean, you, you are rich as and you live in probably a mansion with a hot ass wife and maybe a dog on the way. Like the Times aren't. The times aren't dark for Dan LeBatard. The times are great.

[Chris Cody]

Oh, so money's the only thing that the world needs to care about, right?

[Dan LeBatard]

No, in the comments section for sure.

[Tony]

Definitely the comment section.

[Greg Zaslow]

Yeah, you know about those comments.

[Chris Cody]

So. Okay. So you guys don't wake up scared and worried every day.

[Tony]

We do, but that's why we do this show.

[Juju]

We have less money.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, that's very lot less money.

[Greg Zaslow]

I feel pretty good.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Good for you.

[Chris Cody]

And so to ask Jackson Darth to answer some questions when he just did what he did, like, okay, sports guy, you want to be like, yes, I do have a penthouse on the beach. That is correct.

[Stugotz]

Ph.

[Chris Cody]

But fighting over these things at ESPN got us kicked out. Right. And we are all pretty proud of what it is that we do around here. And got us kicked out around the conversation about the black quarterback kneeling in a flag. And so the country flips in those eight years and arrives wherever it is. You feel everything you feel today. And then I gotta watch the quarterback of the Giants go out there and there's no way to even have a conversation around any of because everyone's already chosen their sides. Like, there's just nothing. Jackson Dart does that.

[Tony]

Starting to do the tone again.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah. Cause it makes me mad. Like, how can you not be pissed off? How can you not honestly just simply be pissed off that every time this comes to sports, it does so in the most bullshit of fashions and you can't even ask any questions about it because it knocks the fun out of everybody that we're here for the laughs.

[Greg Zaslow]

Dance.

[Chris Cody]

Dance.

[Billy]

Yeah. I want to remind you, bro, you was right. Now we just relaying the messages from online. Like you 100, right? My brother, Colin Kaepernick still ain't got the black ball off of his back. You feel me? And I think that Jackson Dart, you willingly stepped into that arena. So now we're going to ask you, oh, why were you so willing to step in that arena? Is the question like, what about Trump was so appealing that you say, oh, damn the locker room, what this could do over here. Damn my friends and the questions, or damn the media, the questions they could possibly ask me. I support this man. And I think the correct question to ask him is why?

[Dan LeBatard]

So you just say it like that, Dan?

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, I didn't. I never do. It's why I can be right and wrong. Like, it the way it comes out, the way that it comes out ends up making it wrong. This room turned against me and everyone agrees with me.

[Tony]

Facts.

[Billy]

We buried the lead on today's show. By the way, I like to wish a very happy birthday to my sister in the Lord. Trista Crick, ladies.

[Greg Zaslow]

Happy birthday to her.

[Tony]

Thank you. Appreciate that.

[Chris Cody]

We don't have a song. We don't have a happy birthday. Happy birthday to her.

[Stugotz]

I don't care.

[Chris Cody]

Good luck, Chris. You're proud of yourself because you couldn't. You found it very quickly. Juju didn't alert you. You found the her. You needed the her. We don't have a lot. We don't. The her is not as high as the him.

[Dan LeBatard]

Good job being born, Tristan.

[Tony]

Thank you. Well, I don't make it a big deal and. But we did have a whole conversation about what 40 means for women. What did 40 mean for you, for you three, when you guys turn 40?

[Greg Zaslow]

I don't know.

[Tony]

Nothing.

[Greg Zaslow]

No, I don't know.

[Tony]

You could just still have kids until you're 80. Who cares? You know? Like 40 means nothing.

[Greg Zaslow]

I could have kids as long as I want. That's right. Not that I'm going to.

[Tony]

That's wild.

[Greg Zaslow]

Nothing. Nothing wrong over here.

[Chris Cody]

So these are the uncomfortable questions for me. This is. Is that one of. Is. What was 40 like for me 17 years ago?

[Dan LeBatard]

You want some uncomfortable questions? Because I got one.

[Chris Cody]

No, I don't want uncomfortable questions for anybody but Jackson. Dart.

[Dan LeBatard]

How much do you weigh?

[Chris Cody]

Hey, man, I don't know. I'm gonna say 250.

[Dan LeBatard]

All right. I'll let you know when I got another one.

[Chris Cody]

That's it.

[Stugotz]

What's the most you've ever weighed?

[Chris Cody]

Probably 290.

[Stugotz]

Really?

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Wow.

[Stugotz]

Dan Levitard almost pushing the big three. 003 o o. How about that?

[Tony]

Where do you stand on foreplay?

[Chris Cody]

I don't stand.

[Tony]

Hey, very good.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

That's very good.

[Tony]

Would you. Would you ever. If you were single?

[Chris Cody]

Okay, so we're doing uncomfortable questions now. I. I didn't realize. Okay.

[Tony]

If we're. If you were single. So put yourself in a single place. Hottest woman. But she's maga. Do you hit or no? No, you don't.

[Stugotz]

Rookie.

[Dan LeBatard]

No.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Do we believe the tough question?

[Juju]

She's right.

[Chris Cody]

Is it?

[Stugotz]

Yeah, of course.

[Chris Cody]

No, no.

[Greg Zaslow]

It's like that episode of Curb youb Enthusiasm, right, Where Larry's having the best sex of his life, but with someone with a woman who hates Jews.

[Stugotz]

Oh, yeah, I remember that.

[Dan LeBatard]

He managed.

He did.

[Chris Cody]

What the hell was that, Greg?

[Stugotz]

Yeah, no, I love it.

[Chris Cody]

Stugats.

[Stugotz]

Roy, let me explain it to you. And not that you need you know more about hockey.

[Dan LeBatard]

And this is coming from a guy that's watched Conor play six times, right?

[Stugotz]

If that.

[Billy]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugach.

[Chris Cody]

I don't like this game. I'm more uncomfortable than Jackson dart will ever be made by the New York media.

[Juju]

I heard you don't want it bad.

[Tony]

The well's not dry in Levitar land. If the well was dry, you'd be like, ah, maybe she just likes his. His tone.

[Billy]

I can change her.

[Dan LeBatard]

A fresh bowl of fruit or $22 in quarters.

[Chris Cody]

I can change her.

[Stugotz]

Yeah,

[Chris Cody]

I'm sorry. I'm still laughing. What was the question?

[Dan LeBatard]

A bowl of fresh fruit or $22 in quarters.

[Chris Cody]

$22 in quarters?

[Dan LeBatard]

That's annoying. I'll take a stupid bowl of fruit.

[Chris Cody]

Why? Why is that an uncomfortable question? You want 22.

[Dan LeBatard]

All right, someone go get Dan 22 a quarter from bring home today. That'd be annoying to care.

[Stugotz]

Ridiculous.

[Chris Cody]

Annoying.

[Stugotz]

88 quarters. That's.

[Chris Cody]

She just called me out of touch. I'm saying 22 of value is 22.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, now you're trying to do seem like a regular person.

[Tony]

Yeah, we're we're out on that. You have a matte black convertible.

[Dan LeBatard]

You can't win.

[Chris Cody]

Okay, well, that's a game I can play because I've been playing it for years. I. I'm right and I'm wrong because of the way that I say it.

[Dan LeBatard]

Also, where's Stugats?

[Tony]

Is he ever coming back?

[Chris Cody]

That's a great question.

[Stugotz]

It is a good question. Surprised nobody's wondered that.

[Dan LeBatard]

We saw a lot of that yesterday when you were telling the New York media that.

[Tony]

Is his name ever coming off the show?

[Chris Cody]

I hope not. That one's kind of up to him. So. No, I'll answer all your questions here. Go ahead, have at it. Like, this is. So you guys tell me here, because this makes me uncomfortable, obviously, but I'm comfortable in telling you that I love that dude and I'm always going to be indebted to him. And I hope that he sits in that chair again because I've told him many, many times I want him to make money from metal art for as long as it exists. So. But that's up to him whether or not he comes back. He's got. He's got a job here, like, so. And he built his thing, and we were going to do these things together, and so I hope he comes back. I'd like to have him back.

[Dan LeBatard]

See knows that that's a better answer than Jackson Dart would give if we pinned him down. Take that YouTube chat.

[Chris Cody]

But, you know, you can ask all the questions that you want there.

[Dan LeBatard]

Like, that's basically it.

[Chris Cody]

No, but this has been. No, but. Been crushing to me. Imagine how much I must value that relationship when you guys know how transparent I am and you guys know that I care about him and that I want him here. Imagine how hard it must be for me to protect the relationship with him and keeping his name on the show in service of wanting him back so the audience can have what it wants. Because I want it, too. You tell me, like, you tell me what I'm supposed to do there.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, I think you're handling it exactly how.

[Chris Cody]

No, but what are the details you guys would like? Because I don't know how to make it any clearer to him or you guys that I would love to have him here, but I'm not telling the audience something. When I value my transparency, when it's important to me, when the relationship with the audience, you know, that I'm grateful for it. How must. How must I value that relationship? To not speak my mind, like, how. How much.

[Greg Zaslow]

Yeah, but the audience doesn't want to hear that. Like, they. They want answers honestly.

[Dan LeBatard]

What you just did is, like, that's fine. Like, they just wanted to hear that. I think.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, I'm trying to protect the relationship because I want him on the show just like you guys want him on the show.

[Greg Zaslow]

Like, me three.

[Billy]

We love you bit, bro. Like, no matter what. Billy, everybody who done left, bro, we got the biggest hearts and love for y'.

[Greg Zaslow]

All.

[Billy]

No matter where y' all are. Y' all don't gotta wear our same jersey to be loved by us. We love you with the other jersey on.

[Chris Cody]

But what more would you like to know? Because. No, I don't know. I don't mind answering these questions because it's been killing me to not be able to speak honestly to our audience for a while. Like, it's been killing me. It hurts. It hurts. This is. I want his name on this show forever. I have worked in protection of that. He knows this.

[Tony]

Why do you think the energy is not the same on the other side?

[Chris Cody]

Business is hard, and we were and are in business together still, and he's building his own thing, and he wanted to do that, and we helped him do that, and we wanted it to commingle with this. And it did for a while and then it didn't.

[Stugotz]

What. How would you describe your relationship with Stugots?

[Chris Cody]

I love him. I'll always love him.

[Stugotz]

Him.

[Chris Cody]

I'm wildly grateful for him as a teammate and co host and partner.

[Tony]

What about, like, tea Partier?

[Chris Cody]

Go ahead.

[Stugotz]

No, that doesn't quite answer the question, though. Is the relationship strained? Have you talked to him lately? I mean, if we're getting honest and asking real questions, I think a lot of people would want to know that.

[Chris Cody]

We have exchanged texts back and forth in the last couple of weeks trying to connect.

[Stugotz]

Valuable, is it? Yeah, Hope so.

[Chris Cody]

A tea party or maybe.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

Honestly, this is what the audience wanted. I'm seeing it in the chat right now.

[Chris Cody]

That's fine. But you have to understand, I don't know if what's. If it's what Stugatz wants and I'm living in service of the protection of somebody I care about, somebody whose career I care about, somebody whose family I care about. Like.

[Tony]

Like.

[Chris Cody]

So, yeah, I know they want answers. Do you not think it kills me to not give them all the answers they would like? But I'm trying. I don't want to say anything bad about a person that I care about. I don't want him to say anything bad about me. We're trying to build two things Together. And at the moment, we're sponsored by competing entities. And so that makes it a little difficult to do business. Like, it just makes it a little difficult, that's all.

[Tony]

Maybe just voted for Trump one time. Would you. Would you hit just one time? The first Trump. Never again Trump.

[Chris Cody]

So for all my gas bagging, this all started, these guys will tell you, with me wishing that Trump would win the Republican primary because I wanted the zoo and the carnival of the circus, the circus of the content. Like, I practically endorsed that dude the first time through just because I wanted him to make a mess. And I didn't say yes.

[Juju]

That's a yes.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, I didn't think there was any chance that he would win.

[Greg Zaslow]

Didn't turn out as funny as you thought.

[Chris Cody]

No, not quite. Well, joke's on me. Isn't that fun?

[Juju]

That is funny.

[Chris Cody]

I can't even say anything about Jackson Dart now.

[Juju]

That is funny, though.

[Chris Cody]

It is funny.

[Juju]

Ten years later, we're here.

[Chris Cody]

It's hysterical.

[Juju]

He came on this show and said you were very smart.

[Greg Zaslow]

Love the show.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Love the show.

[Greg Zaslow]

Great show.

[Stugotz]

Best ever.

[Chris Cody]

Anything else? I will sit here for four minutes for your uncomfortable stugat's questions. I think Mike Ryan's probably going to be mad libertarian.

[Dan LeBatard]

I mean, they're all easy.

[Tony]

I mean, Tony's gonna.

[Greg Zaslow]

The answer's yes for all of them.

[Tony]

Tony's a yes for everyone.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yes, man.

[Chris Cody]

But. So you guys. I saw you guys arguing before the show about whether or not Justin Herbert is a cuck.

[Tony]

He is.

[Juju]

What are we doing there, Zaz? What do you think?

[Greg Zaslow]

I don't know anything about cucks. Don't ask me.

[Tony]

Harbaugh cucked him as well. He said, oh, you need. You guys need a ride to the airport?

[Chris Cody]

So where.

[Dan LeBatard]

What is this concert that Madison Beer was at? Because I saw this video where she's being coddled. I'd say on stage. Justin Herbert's girlfriend, Roy. Keep up with the times, dude.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Keep up with the. Okay, fine, Whatever.

[Stugotz]

Great name.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

It is a good name, though.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, should be my last name. Greg Beer.

[Billy]

He wouldn't have made it to 50.

[Stugotz]

Madison Beer. The.

[Dan LeBatard]

The jury rests. No, the jury wouldn't. Rest the defense. Rest. And you're off the stand.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, the chemistry between a father and son there. What were you saying, Greg?

[Stugotz]

That she was discovered by Justin Bieber. Right. When she was 13 years old, Justin Bieber promoted one of her songs, and that gave her the entree into stardom. And now, whatever. Ten years later, she's hooking up with another Justin. How do you Notice I'm told you know my sources.

[Chris Cody]

Why are the rest of. Why is Greg Cody downloading you guys on something in pop culture? And all of you are mystified by what he's talking about.

[Greg Zaslow]

This appears to be true.

[Stugotz]

I'm.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Mr.

[Greg Zaslow]

Pop Culture discovered a 12 year old Madison beer.

[Stugotz]

Right.

[Greg Zaslow]

When he tweeted her cover of Etta James at last.

[Stugotz]

Exactly. Great.

[Greg Zaslow]

You know that song At Last?

[Stugotz]

It is. She's a legend.

[Greg Zaslow]

Good song.

[Stugotz]

No, I'm. My granddaughter calls me pop culture. I mean, you know, I'm. I'm just. I know everything about everything going on.

[Tony]

Do we have the video of Madison beers?

[Chris Cody]

I thought we had Justin Herbert video that we were going to. Isn't that where we started? I thought that the argument between you was related to whether or not Justin Herbert was a cuck. Yes, but we didn't promise provide any video proof to anybody about what we were talking about because I don't think people know what you were talking about.

[Dan LeBatard]

This is her right here. She's on stage. And Justin Herbert is essentially watching this and coddling. It's putting it nicely.

[Chris Cody]

Coddling. Don't talk sensual. What did you. Did you say that breathily?

[Greg Zaslow]

Cuddly.

[Stugotz]

Cuddly cuddling or coddling?

[Dan LeBatard]

Coddlingus.

[Stugotz]

Whoa.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

That.

[Billy]

Okay, this is the opposite of what you guys are talking about. I see a confident man and letting his girl do her dreams. Live her life. She know everybody on stage is paid to be there. Not a cuck.

[Tony]

They said it was a play on. I don't think it's a play on at all.

[Greg Zaslow]

Like at all.

[Tony]

And. And Tony says it's a play on because there's a little bit of a zesty energy to him. I think those are the guys you have to worry about the most.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

I'm sure Josh Allen feels the same way about his wife when she's doing sex scenes in the movie.

[Tony]

Yeah. When she got. She spit in Michael B. Jordan's mouth.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Sheesh.

[Tony]

You know about that spit? Dan.

[Chris Cody]

Chris Cody just did this and was saying take the show. And the reason I'm not taking the show is because Tony had a lot of stuff to say about this earlier and all of a sudden has a lot less to say while calling everyone else a cock.

[Juju]

Excuse me. She's a performer. And what do those dancers do? She pays them to perform. You got a guy doing that? It's a play on for me. Trista said it. You want me to say exactly what Trista said? She already said it. Is my tone okay?

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Fine.
