Stugats
Greg do you hear your stomach? No you don't. So you don't hear the sounds your stomach is making when you on an empty stomach drink a bunch of coffee and then clearly have rumbling that I can hear over here even though I've got headsets on. And I am now beginning to feel vulnerable at home because of the amount of times I have to ask my wife to repeat herself because my hearing is going from wearing headsets for 22 years. It makes it so that I'm asking her all the time to repeat herself. I can hear your stomach through my headphones with bad hearings as do you hear?
Greg Cody
Yeah, no I do. And I suffer from the same thing as Dan does with the hearing at home. Although I don't feel bad about making my wife say things loud and repeating herself. I don't know why you feel vulnerable. Speak up. Speak up.
Dan LeBatard
So you claim you're Hard of hearing and yet you claim to be able to hear.
Stugats
That's how loud it is. I can't believe that you don't hear it.
Dan LeBatard
No, not at all. Normally you feel something like that more than.
Stugats
That's the other thing, though. That's the other reason that I never understand it. You neither hear it nor feel it. When it's clear, you have dancing swords in your stomach.
Dan LeBatard
No, no, not clear.
Tony
Dan, when are you going to transition from what? What did you say to, eh.
Zaza
Oh, the poppy. Huh?
Tony
What year does that transition happen for you
Zaza
three years from now? Tony, to answer your question, I want
Stugats
to ask you guys this before we move off of the Giannis subject. We'll talk to Stan Van Gundy off of that subject in a little bit, in about an hour. But it's probably worth noting as we examine whether or not Jaylen Brown is insulted. This part seems important to that no credible reporter has said they're offering Jaylen Brown. Like there has not been one credible reporter. Kevin o' Connor went on Boston television yesterday, but he's not saying that Jaylen Brown is being offered. The reports are that Giannis is interested in Boston and Miami would sign extensions with either. And Gary Washburn of the Globe is saying the Celtics are sniffing around to see if they can get Giannis without giving up on Brown. Like that's. That's what the conversation has been. So if that's the case, and this part, I just don't know what to do with this part. If throughout our country the trust of the media, not sports media, just media, is at an all time low, and in sports you have a whole bunch of information people, but no information that seems really solid on what the reporting is here. What are you left to do with the fact that it doesn't seem like many of the people reporting on this know anything.
Greg Cody
This is my biggest issue every year when it comes to this league and this is the time of year and we go through this every season and I do this every time. I don't believe any of these people know anything except for the ones who are coming out there, like guys like Brian Windhorse, who are literally saying, because. Because this is frowned upon. Right. Like if you're one of these reporters, you.
Dan LeBatard
Yeah.
Greg Cody
You have to come out with something definitive, you know, like you can't say, I don't know. I'm not sure Windhorse does that. Where he'll be like, I wouldn't be so quick. This is what he said yesterday. I wouldn't be so quick to assume that Boston is willing to trade Jaylen Brown for anything right now. But the whole. I'm not so sure. I wouldn't say this. That's frowned upon. So you have reporters out there who are coming out with their reports from their sources and none of these guys know anything. Like for example here. All right. I saw this one report yesterday where apparently Trey Young. Wizards point guard Trey Young, it has emerged as a backup option for the Miami Heat if they don't wind up acquiring Giannis. So a couple things. Number one, the first part, where there is no scenario where the Miami Heat aren't interested in Trae Young. That's number one. And that's not about Trey Young. Character wise or like he's just too small, makes a lot of money, doesn't defend like there's nothing about Trey Young.
Stugats
Worst defender in the league. If you think Tyler Herro is the worst defender in the league, his closest competition is Trey Young.
Greg Cody
There is nothing about Trae Young that the Miami Heat would be interested in. That's number one. And number two, the Miami Heat, a super secretive organization who for all the honest rumors that are going on right now, are still very, very quiet about anything that could be going on right now. So a super secretive organization is letting it out there what their plan B option is if they don't wind up landing Giannis, get the hell out of here. These guys don't know anything.
Dan LeBatard
Yeah, and even the so called reports tend to be couched in vagaries and have asterisks on them and, and have hesitation in them. Nobody knows anything for sure. So everybody's afraid to say anything that sounds the least bit definitive. The only person that knows right now is Giannis. He probably has a pretty good idea where he's leaning. Nobody else.
Stugats
But how fair is this, the general climate of everything that we're talking about here? I wouldn't say that nobody knows anything because there are plenty of people who are informed. If Sham says it, if Woj used to say it, Windhorse is very credible. Are locked in with sources. Stephen A. Smith's sources in basketball are very good. But how fair is any of this if you're someone like Jaylen Brown, we know that Tyler Herro's in his feelings even though the Heat are a private organization. How fair is any of it if what Zsasz is saying is true? If reporters don't know anything, if no one has credit, no one who's credible has credibly reported that Jaylen Brown is being offered by the Celtics. No one has said that and we're talking about whether it should be insulted when it's just a bunch of people talking. They might as well be around a urinal like they happen to be on television, but they might as well be around a urinal, given that no one credible is reporting anything about Jaylen Brown, and everyone's talking about whether he should have his feelings hurt or whether he should be insulted.
Mustachioed Stranger
But ultimately, when the local reporters start talking about you, like you mentioned, Kevin o'. Connor. Kevin o' Connor is going on NBC Sports, Boston, the local side of things, and saying, hey, I doubt Milwaukee would want Jaylen Brown. I doubt he'd want to be in Milwaukee. But if Giannis wants to win, the obvious place for him to be is Boston, and they just need to find a third team to take Jaylen Brown. When the local media starts talking that way. We've seen it. Tyler Heroes had to go through this every single off season of his entire career. And going through that has been difficult. He finally got to a space where it's like, okay, I could block that out. He has not had quite the success you guys mentioned in the local hour. Jaylen Brown is a Finals mvp. The one time they've won a championship with this group. He must be looking at the local side of it and saying, wait a minute. Bill Simmons, the guy who cares about the Celtics, is saying, trade me. Go get Giannis. Kevin o' Connor is suggesting that that should put Jaylen Brown in a position where Jaylen Brown says, hey, you know what? I don't want to be here. I want a trade. Regardless of what happens, get me out of here.
Tony
This is all a propaganda war. It feels like from all these big media hubs of Boston and LA and Miami, and everybody's looking around saying, all right, the Heat had their offer. Boston was nowhere near. All of a sudden, this Heat thing starts to become real. Boston needs to jump in and start, you know, moving the propaganda machine. Simmons comes out and says stuff. O' Connor saying stuff. It's all just a media psyop to see who can get Giannis first.
Zaza
Man, Wendy doing a hit from a bathroom, though. He's just like, I don't know. While, like, on a stall and then
Greg Cody
queuing the flush while, like, taking a. That's what he's doing.
Dan LeBatard
Why are they talking around a urinal? Used to be you talked around a water cooler. When did the urinal take over?
Zaza
That's when you don't know anything.
Tony
You talk around the urinal, Dan.
Dan LeBatard
I never. I'm silent.
Zaza
I do love a Good bathroom conversation. As long as they're right neck, they're not right next to me. If they're at least like a urinal over.
Dan LeBatard
I. I'll get a little.
Zaza
How's it going?
Dan LeBatard
Really?
Stugats
I am more likely to be quiet in that scenario than just about any scenario that is anywhere that you can present to me.
Zaza
Well, how's it hanging?
Stugats
No, that's not. I'm not with strangers going to be talking at a urinal at Lebaton.
Zaza
I like your watch.
Stugats
Show at Lebatard show. Put it on the poll. I like your watch now. You're flirting with someone at the urinal now. That's what you're doing.
Zaza
Just happened to see your wrist. I'm not looking or anything.
Stugats
I put it on the poll at Lebatard show. Do you talk at the urinal, yes or no? Because I'm just not very likely to talk there. I wanted to ask you something and look this up for me, because I'd like some information on what I'm about to ask you guys. Evidently, in the uk they are about to or have banned social media for anyone under 16.
Greg Cody
Wow.
Stugats
This was interesting to me for a couple of different reasons. One of them is I actually, even though I'm all about freedoms, actually think that it is a healthy thing to try and curb what is a growing addiction that can harm young people to try and police that a little bit outside of your parents. But the second question I had, and it has to do with putting toothpaste back in the tube, how do you police that? Like, how do you actually police that in order to keep anyone under 16 who's already on social media, weaning them off of social media? And I would just ask you generally, what do you guys think of the idea of that? Social media is not something that can be handled by adults either. But it seems like in the formative stages, given that we've got a loneliness problem, given that we have an epidemic of depression among young people who are doing all these, you know, comparison is the thief of joy. Looking at the lives of others and just a general sadness problem among young people, it seems like something that we should try to govern in some sort of way. But I imagine most people listening to this are saying, don't impinge my freedoms and don't tell me how to raise my children.
Greg Cody
Well, I. Okay, so you're saying that adults are saying, don't impinge my freedoms and don't tell me to raise my children because underage, you know, kids, you're under it like you, like, you don't have the same type of freedoms that everybody else does. I'm totally good with that. Like, totally good with the UK doing that. And I would say, how do we. How do we put the toothpaste back in the tube? But I'm being serious when I make this comparison. We used to have porn here in Florida, and now you go to these websites, it is not allowed anymore.
Stugats
How do you know that?
Greg Cody
Don't worry about how I know. It is not allowed anymore. And, like, you have to go through a whole age verify, a whole process, which I don't know about, but you have to go through a whole thing. All right, so I've read. Why. Why can't social media do the same thing?
Tony
That's. That's what they're doing. You're going to have to age verify and, like, actually show your passport or driver's license or something to be on social media. And obviously, you know, kids don't have IDs. Like, very few of them have driver's license at that, you know, age 16, 17.
Zaza
But from what I've read, there's an easy workaround on that, too. Just other websites.
Greg Cody
That's true. No, that's true. But, you know, be it Twitter or TikTok, Snapchat, the main ones, there could be an age verification process.
Stugats
You reading is funny given that you don't read your father's work and he's a writer.
Zaza
Oh, come on.
Mustachioed Stranger
The Prime Minister said that the government's introducing new regulations in Parliament before Christmas and will bring a ban into force in early 2027. So there will also be restrictions on game platforms and live streaming apps. They talked about potentially having overnight bans to sort of prevent infinite scrolling as well. But you mentioned that there will be spec apps that includes TikTok, Snapchat, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and X. You'll still be able to message on things like WhatsApp and Signal.
Greg Cody
Do they say anything about the porn in Florida?
Mustachioed Stranger
It doesn't say anything, but I'll keep looking. Well, what site did you want me to check?
Miller Lite Advertiser
Hey, it's Greg Cody's inner monologue. You know, every friend group has that one person who's somehow better at summer than everybody else weekends. You'll never see me without a beer in my head. Straight up. That time is Miller time. As soon as I finish the column, I'll say a little something, head over to the garage, crack open a nice gold Miller Light, and I'll stay there for a good 90 minutes, listen to my own voice, watch Back some videos, see some feedback of people loving me. Then I'll. I'll send a voice note to YETI or something. And then more, you know about myself, more talking about myself, that kind of thing. Legendary moments start with Miller Time. And they're made even better by a Miller Time MVP like me. We all have that one friend who makes every game better. Now it's time to give them their moment. Head over to any of Miller Lite's social media pages and learn more about being a Miller Time mvp. You can pick up some Miller Lite pretty much anywhere they sell beer. It's Miller Time.

Dan LeBatard
Hey, that's what I'm talking about.
Cuervo Guy
Tony. You know that moment at a party or at a tailgate where everything just sort of clicks?
Tony
I know it. Well, it's usually when I show up, everybody goes crazy.
Cuervo Guy
Yeah, you usually take all the credit for it, but it's because Tony usually walks in with Cuervo.
Dan LeBatard
Walking like this.
Cuervo Guy
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cuervo is a thing that turns hanging out into this is the night.
Tony
It has that effect on people.
Cuervo Guy
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 standing up, hooting and hollering, keep it Cuervo.
Dan LeBatard
Keep it Cuervo, baby.

Dan LeBatard
This is the Dan Levatar show with the stugats.
Tony
The parent situation. Dan, that you Mentioned like don't, don't teach me or don't let me parent my kids the way that I want or let me parent the kids the way I want.
Stugats
All very well said.
Tony
Yeah, well, what I was going to say.
Stugats
I'm sorry, I'm going to have to get you out of here on that. What you were going to say should have been said and instead you didn't say it. So you're going to.
Tony
My point was going to be, yeah,
Stugats
but I don't, I don't want to hear. I don't. Parents just.
Greg Cody
Minor penalty, two minutes delay a show.
Dan LeBatard
Why is the government. I don't want to be one of these guys, but why is the government telling me how to raise my kids? I just think this is a situation where you keep your own kids off social media with all kind of guardrails.
Greg Cody
If you believe that it's impossible.
Dan LeBatard
How about you don't give them an iPhone? How about you don't give them a smartphone?
Stugats
This is being said by someone who didn't have to raise kids during the Internet.
Greg Cody
Yeah. You're out of touch with this.
Stugats
This is something that is damn near impossible to control and you would need the government's help to make sure your kid's not on social media of any kind.
Greg Cody
Even if, even if I, even if I do, I do take that away from my son and I am, I can take it from him and he is not going to be on that stuff anymore. Maybe I even took his phone. So he doesn't even have a phone anymore to prevent that. You go to school, all the kids are on it. There's a huge social aspect to it where even if I can police my son now, he's the odd man out at school. He's the only one who doesn't have it. Even though I am doing a good
Dan LeBatard
job as a parents, okay, but, but I have an 8 year old granddaughter and, and I care about her habits as I watch her growing. I personally don't like it when she uses a tablet at a dinner table in a restaurant, but I don't want the government to say she can't. I don't want the restaurant to put a rule about that. As a parent or, or a grandparent, if I'm watching her over the weekend, I'm going to say, hey, please put your tablet, oh please, we're having a meal.
Zaza
You, you and mom are the worst with letting her have her tablet, like while she's going to sleep, where we usually cut that off. And like with you, she, she Gets home with you, she's like, yeah, I had my tablet till like 11:30. I'm just saying, you're sitting here preaching something, and when she goes to your mother does that.
Dan LeBatard
We disagree on that.
Zaza
It's Nana's fault.
Dan LeBatard
Okay, you. You've never heard me defend you because I know you and your wife have an issue about this, about her using a tablet at a table. I agree with you, and I'll say it. I'll say it loud. I don't personally like that. But the larger point is I don't want the government or a restaurant to tell me how to parent. I want to tell my own daughter or granddaughter, hey, let's have a conversation here. Put that down for 25.
Zaza
Let's be humans.
Stugats
Yes, well, but let me understand what you're saying here, because generally speaking, it's easy in sort of the utopian hypothetical way to just sort of say, I don't want government in my life that way. And of course, nobody wants government in their life very much invasively. But government does make rules about what age kids are allowed to drive. Government makes rules about what age you have to be to drink, for example. And that's danger to others. But what about if
Greg Cody
we love it?
Tony
All Tony was trying to say was that parents want an excuse and want help to be able to have their kids off of social media. All the apps that Jeremy Tashay mentioned are all very dangerous app for kids to be on. And all he was saying is that they need help. And if the government is able to help in that sense, I don't think they would push it away and say, no, you know what? I don't want your help. I know how to raise my kid. No, I'm trying to get my kid the frick off of Tick tock and face snap.
Mustachioed Stranger
That's a really great point. Mustachioed stranger.
Stugats
Thank you for helping the audio audience on why it is I was laughing at his Bobby Valentine with a Cuban hat.
Zaza
Roberto Valentino.
Stugats
He came in in disguise after serving his penalty and then stood in the exact same spot Tony was in. But he fooled me because he had a mustache. And I'm like, who's this handsome stranger who speaks correctly when he's trying to speak into the microphone? Here's Tony from earlier in the show, says you laughed at him. Tell me what was happening here with Tony and just speech and understanding the
Tony
parent situation, Dan, that you mentioned, like, don't, don't teach me or don't let me parent my kids the way that I want or Let me parent the kids the way I want.
Dan LeBatard
Well said.
Tony
Who is that?
Mustachioed Stranger
In March, the government invited public input on the issue, drawing more than 116,000 responses for parents, young people and industry groups and experts is. According to the New York Times, government said that 90% of the parents who responded back to Minimum age of 16 Access to social media. And when, when we talk about this,
Greg Cody
most parents are going to be good with it.
Mustachioed Stranger
Yeah. This is also about like harm, this is about self harm, this is about bullying, this is about suicide. Like this is beyond just poor habits of scrolling. So like in the same way I would have you think about this the way you might think about gun restrictions.
Dan LeBatard
Right.
Mustachioed Stranger
Like is it going to stop all of it?
Miller Lite Advertiser
No.
Mustachioed Stranger
Is it going to help? Yes.
Stugats
It doesn't have to be gun restrictions unless you're going to the far extreme of suicide, which is not an illogical complain to file. I think of it more as pubs and drinking. But one of the things that our laws have not accounted for with what is, we can agree, an addiction. Correct. It's a human addiction at this point. What is happening with the devices, none of our rules take into account the idea that if you're under 16 and on the Internet, a whole lot of people can harm you in a number of different ways and it's just not something that our laws have caught up to the technology on. So just put it on the poll because I am actually curious about this, how the audience will respond to this at Lebatard show because a lot of people are freedom absolutists. Should there be government regulations on your 15 year old's Internet use? Because I think the UK is ahead of the curve here on trying to do something about what is clearly a problem. There's no, I don't think anyone would dispute that this is harming young people and harming a generation. That the generation before them, it didn't have to worry about it all.
Tony
Australia did this last year, the year prior. Like they've been way ahead of the curb on trying to stop young kids from being online just continuously.
Greg Cody
The only dispute is going to come from parents who believe they can control this scenario. And I would tell you, no, you can't.
Stugats
I wanted to ask Greg Cody, our football expert, I don't know if you saw this, what Calvin Johnson had to say. Calvin Johnson was talking about his single season record and the idea that he has, you know, more passing yards, receiving in a season than anybody. He says the guy that Stafford has, Stafford did it with Calvin Johnson. He says that Puka if he stays healthy, is the guy most likely in the league to beat him when it comes to single season passing yards. Which is kind of crazy when you consider they had Cooper cup doing the same sorts of things that Puka was doing. But the quote that Johnson told the Detroit Free Press was that would be kind of dope if Puka did it. I'd have to go to that game if he did that because I like Puka. And then this sentence, he's getting some crap out of his system. That's just a young guy, but I think he's an awesome dynamic receiver. So getting some crap out of his system is going to rehab. That's what getting some crap out of his system as a young man.
Tony
Quite literally. Yeah, quite literally.
Dan LeBatard
Right. I agree with him though. The record's going to be broken, right? I mean, and part of it is that the schedule going from 16 games to 17 and now they're talking about 18. There's a lot of factions in the league trying to expand to an 18 game season. So it's just a matter of time. None of these records are going to last. Passing records, rushing records, sacks record. We saw the sack record fall last year. Longer seasons, even one game makes a difference. It used to be a 12 game schedule, then it was 14. Now it's 16, now it's 17. Records fall.
Stugats
Is there any number in football that matters? Like, is 170 the only one that matters or is it the one that matters the most? Whose phone was that? Whose phone was that?
Dan LeBatard
That's mine. That's my fault.
Windows 11 Promo Announcer

Zaza

Dan LeBatard
At least I don't have coins in my wallet.
Zaza
Still got that photo of mom in there?
Dan LeBatard
Yes, my lovely bride. Break that for me anyway, will you? Break it into four or fives.
Zaza
You're gonna give a valet of five?
Dan LeBatard
Yeah. Wow. I'm a big tipper and you know it.
Zaza
Usually you try to break the five.
Stugats
Zaz, do you have change for a 20 in your big ass wallet?
Dan LeBatard
And I don't mean coins.
Greg Cody
I have. I have a five. And a couple ones.
Stugats
Okay.
Greg Cody
And I have $1.16 and change.
Dan LeBatard
All right, well, you give me two fives. Dan will give me a 10 and then give me my 20.
Stugats
Will trick a cashier into giving me money.
Tony
Exactly right, Greg. I was gonna say, how about. How about Zaz give you his money, but you never give him the other money?
Stugats
Let's go here to this street.
Dan LeBatard
My wallet. So the people can't zoom in on my license. Will you really?
Stugats
So wait a minute. You think, just to be clear, you think that there's a way, okay, for us to zoom in on your driver's license from here with our stationary cameras that don't have any cameraman.

Dan LeBatard
I want to address Tony and all men who would wear that shirt in public.
Cuervo Guy
Stugats don't do it.
Dan LeBatard
This is the Don Levatar show with the stugats.
Stugats
Get me the sound, please. And the video of an incompetent streaker that we have. I believe this was at the United States game Messi plays today. The US Plays again on Friday. And Zaslo, I want you to help me here with the play by play before we get started on what this audio and video is, because there's a guy in sunglasses holding a ball standing very high above the field, and he is surrounded by security there. How many security people do you see there?
Zaza
I would say this is like 20 security people. This is a guy right after the game. So the game had just ended. He's like, all right, this is my moment. I'm gonna go out into the field. So he's kind of like pacing back and forth, looking for his spot to
Greg Cody
jump onto the field, but they're on to him.
Dan LeBatard
Looks a little like Jeremy.
Greg Cody
Yes. This guy's running back and forth on the ledge edge. He's being surrounded by security waiting for him to jump off. He's. He's doing, like, fake out, fake out, you know, and now. Now he jumps off.
Zaza
So he basically just jumped off right into the arms of 20 security guards. It's just, you gotta pivot at that point, brother. You gotta pivot. You gotta. You're pacing. You did four paces. There's 17 security guards jumped into a
Greg Cody
sea of security guards.
Tony
Not only that, it's not like, if you're listening on the. On the podcast, he's like, right next to the railing. He can just jump to the other side of the railing and jump up and run up the stairs and be gone audible.
Stugats
Just for the record, though, as we play this again, I would like for us to examine, okay. As Mark Norman runs back and forth here with a soccer ball in his hands, how many steps. How many steps does he take by the time he hops on the ground before he's tackled by seven people? Okay, how many steps does he take? Yeah.
Dan LeBatard
None.
Zaza
Straight down to the ground half a step stupid.
Stugats
And then people throw beer and a cup at him, and he's literally got nine people on him who are unnecessarily panicked given how secure the situation is.
Tony
The guy in the suit is, like, laying on top of him, like, screaming for help.
Stugats
It's like, what's going on here?
Miller Lite Advertiser
There is.
Stugats
There's less chance that that person is going to do harm to anyone in that stadium than anyone else who's in that stadium. Given that there are literally nine people on top of him, foreign suits, three in yellow jackets, and just a couple milling about trying to earn their paycheck,
Greg Cody
why does the guy in the suit, is he doing believe that the four security guards who are there as well aren't on top of the situation?
Zaza
And then he gets a soda thrown on him and he's like, just pointing
Greg Cody
up like, I get that. Stop throwing stuff. I felt that.
Stugats
That seems to me. Okay. Streaking in general don't totally get how it could possibly be worth whatever the fine is. But specifically, given World cup security, given what the issues are presently in this country with just danger, this seems a remarkably stupid thing to do, even by the diminished stupid standards of streakers.
Dan LeBatard
Yeah. To nitpick, that guy's not a streaker. He's fully clothed. Yeah.
Greg Cody
I was just gonna say, isn't streaker naked?
Dan LeBatard
Yes. Well. Or partially naked.
Zaza
So underwear only. You're good.
Stugats
So what do we call this person if not a streaker?
Tony
A pitch invader is what the LLM says, Dan.
Stugats
Pitch invader.
Dan LeBatard
Right. A ne' er do.
Zaza
Well, yeah.
Windows 11 Promo Announcer
If you.
Greg Cody
If you're streaking, there has to be nakedness.
Dan LeBatard
Yes.
Greg Cody
And I think underwear tighty whities.
Dan LeBatard
That counts.
Greg Cody
Tighty whitey's definitely.
Tony
That's a tighty whitey's guy.
Greg Cody
I'm a. I'm a boxer briefs guy. All right.
Tony
I said other. You said other for a second.
Greg Cody
I was a tighty whitey guy a lot longer than most people.
Zaza
Checks out.
Greg Cody
You know, Like, I was definitely, like, I was definitely tighty whitey at, like, 17 still. You know, I feel like most of my friends were boxers at that point, you know, so. So I was. I was tighty whitey for a long time.
Mustachioed Stranger
Were you wearing tighty whities when the Heat won the championship and you got your first ring?
Greg Cody
Oh, no. Well, that was their second championship and I got my first ring. No, no, no. I was boxer briefs. But with their first championship, I was 25 years old. I might have still been tighty whities.
Dan LeBatard
Maybe that's too old for tighty whitey.
Greg Cody
Whatever, man. Hang with him.
Mustachioed Stranger
The real pitch invader is Otto Lopez. He has the most hits in baseball.
Dan LeBatard
Olo.
Stugats
Hang with him is a funny phrase to use as it relates to tight.
Zaza
When you guys photo of Zaza.
Stugats
Correct me on streaker pitch invader. If I had said that on first reference to the audience, they wouldn't have had any idea what I was talking about. There's a pitch invader here and it's not. Streaker is an all purpose word whether the person is naked or not. For somebody who's streaking across the field
Dan LeBatard
because this guy wasn't.
Zaza
But in old school, if somebody had had jogged alongside Will Ferrell with clothes on, we would have said there's one streaker here like buddy.
Stugats
I thought that the phrase streaker is because you're streaking across the field, that it doesn't actually have to do with nudity of any kind. That nude is a bonus. Tighty whities is a bonus. Shirtless is a bonus. But that streaker itself is talk for what you're doing across the field. Do I not have that?
Commercial Announcer
Correct.
Stugats
Do I have it?
Dan LeBatard
You're wrong.
Commercial Announcer
I'm wrong?
Dan LeBatard
Yeah. You're wrong about that. And also I would question whether this guy was a pitch invader because the pitch is the playing field. He was not near the.
Stugats
So he's a sideline invader. What I should have said a sideline invader is what I should have said.
Greg Cody
Pitch invader.
Stugats
So. So I should have described that as. Here's a failed pitch invader trying to invade the pitch because he's not streaking because he's wearing clothes.
Dan LeBatard
Let me give you a quick definition. A streaker is a person who runs naked through a public space. People streak to get attention for a prank, as a dare, or as a form of protest, typically at sporting events and public gatherings.
Mustachioed Stranger
The first recorded incident of running naked in public by a college student in the United states occurred in 1804 at Washington College when senior George William Crump was arrested for running naked through Lexington, Virginia, where the university was located. He was suspended for the academic season, but remember, he later went on to become a U.S. congressman.
Greg Cody
See, like you, you would think if he was the first one, it'd be called crumping, Right? Instead of streaking.
Tony
That's a dance.
Zaza
Though there had to be so many Georges in that time.
Mustachioed Stranger
He was the ambassador to Chile.
Greg Cody
I gotta be honest with you. I don't even care what you think about me, about the tighty whities. Tighty whiteies are comfortable. All right. When you get home.
Tony
No, they're not. That's the whole reason why everybody changes.
Greg Cody
They're very comfortable. You get home, you take off your shirt, you take off your pants, you get comfortable. Everybody knows that. Just walk around the zazzle. Well, it wasn't really a mansion when I was growing up, but I'd walk around the zazzle house a teenager. I'd be in my tighty whities. And maybe I wore them in college, too. Whatever. Hang with him.
Stugats
Again with hang with them. Hang with them as it relates to the tighty whities. It's great word choices. I don't think that anyone thinks of tighty whities as comfortable. Put it on the poll at LeBatard show. Are tighties comfortable? Greg, when. About what age did you make the transition from tighty whities to boxers? Because I don't know. When were boxers invented?
Greg Cody
Because boxers are terrible.
Stugats
I'm guessing that when Greg Cody was a boy, there were no boxers. I'm gonna guess that boxer boxer shorts or sort of underwear are probably 60, 50 years old.
Greg Cody
Horrible.
Mustachioed Stranger
They were invented and used in English since 1944. So when Greg was like a teenager in England. No, they've been used as a term in English.
Stugats
Okay.
Zaza
The boxer brief. Early 90s.
Dan LeBatard
I was a Fruit of the Loom boy. But once I became a man, a college age man, I was a boxer guy for sure. Still wear the boxers.
Greg Cody
Boxers are terrible. You're free balling. I gotta.
Dan LeBatard
You're hanging loose is what you're doing.
Greg Cody
Nah, no one needs that.
Tony
You're hanging loose wearing shorts underneath your pants.
Greg Cody
Yeah.
Stugats
Greg, are you ready to do your catchphrases?
Dan LeBatard
Yes, sir.
Stugats
Are you excited about it?
Dan LeBatard
I am excited.
Stugats
Where are we in the catchphrase list?
Greg Cody
Coming up with your own material this week.
Dan LeBatard
Week. We're about to. We're about to reveal numbers 13 and
Zaza
14, which may turn into 23 and 20.
Dan LeBatard
Should I say 14 and 13? I will announce that the catchphrase countdown will increase from a top 60 at least to a top 65. But the next increase will be the last one. That's for sure. We think.
Stugats
I don't believe you.
Dan LeBatard
I'm not in control of this. We bring it up.
Stugats
But it's official now. You hadn't made it official before. All of these can be found on the Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody with.
Dan LeBatard
That's right. Roy has it right. So he wasn't correct. Yeah.
Stugats
So correct is incorrect.
Dan LeBatard
Correct is incorrect. Yeah.
Stugats
Set, rec The Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody.
Dan LeBatard
Right. With.
Miller Lite Advertiser
With.
Stugats
So is this 13 or 14 or is this. I guess this is officially now 19. We're back to 20.
Dan LeBatard
19 is not an effect yet.
Zaza
It's been announced here. Next week's Greg Cody show will have the change in effect.
Greg Cody
So this is 13 and 14, which next week is going to be 18 and 19.
Commercial Announcer
If.
Dan LeBatard
If.
Zaza
Unless we go back to 75 in which it will be 23 and 24.
Dan LeBatard
Right? Oh, my God.
Stugats
No, that's. If it's 70. If it's 75, then it'll be 30 and 29.
Dan LeBatard
75 is the ideal number. It's. It's magisterial.
Greg Cody
Dan did think you had 50.
Dan LeBatard
He didn't think I had five. Like Zaz barely has five and now he's got four.
Greg Cody
I'm considering putting together a list of my own. We'll see.
Dan LeBatard
Yeah, you are.
Greg Cody
I'm considering it.
Windows 11 Promo Announcer
Well, I. I don't want.
Greg Cody
I don't want. Well, well, that's. That's the entire point. I don't want you to keep stealing from me, so I may need to put together my own list. Put it out there so that you can't continue to steal from me. You already took one of my go to phrases and all you did was put a hey in front of it and all of a sudden that means it's yours and a sing song.
Stugats
He sang it. That's not fair. And he made it better.
Tony
Hey, that's what I'm talking about.
Greg Cody
No, it's. That's what I'm talking about.
Dan LeBatard
Oh, it's. Hey, that's what I'm talking about.
Greg Cody
And you see, because you did it before me, so now everybody thinks it's you. And that's so I'm considering.
Dan LeBatard
Yeah.
Greg Cody
My own list now. It's not going to be as long
Dan LeBatard
as yours are going to be a top two.
Greg Cody
Nope. Whatever. Whatever I do, I'm going to put it out there so that you cannot steal any more.
Zaza
It won't be as good as.
Dan LeBatard
Hey, that's what I'm talking about.
Greg Cody
So I'm trying to avoid.
Dan LeBatard
Ready?
Stugats
Yes. Should I say number 65 or number 60?

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Air date: June 16, 2026 | Live from The Elser Hotel, Downtown Miami
Guests featured: Greg Cody, Tony, Zaza, Mustachioed Stranger, Robert Valentino
This lively episode brings the signature banter from Dan Le Batard, Stugotz, and the crew as they dive into the chaos of NBA trade rumors, the unreliability of sports media, privacy and regulation of youth social media, parenting in the age of screens, and a hilarious play-by-play of a failed "streaker" (pitch invader) at a recent U.S. soccer match. The hour is filled with their trademark blend of sports insight, generational disagreements, South Florida flavor, and plenty of irreverent humor.

(30:09 – 36:20)
(38:19 – 42:47)
The episode is classic Le Batard: skeptical, absurd, self-referential, and filled with rapid-fire humor. Sports stories blend into generational debates, Miami quirks, and meta-commentary about media and masculinity—all wrapped in the family-like dysfunction the show’s fans expect and love.
If you missed this episode, you'll come away with an appreciation for both the deep skepticism the crew has for media narratives in sports, and their ability to spin everyday quirks—bathroom etiquette, social media parenting, or even underwear choices—into communal, comedic catharsis. The big lesson: In an age of endless speculation and information, sometimes all you can do is laugh, question, and, of course...stay out of the urinal conversation zone.
