The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
I mean, how could they get through this without having a conversation about it? I'm like, why do they say it like that?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
I can't even do it right. Sounds like a buzzer. They have an enunciation to it's a.

Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
Look, here's the thing, and you're going to learn this. You're still new at being a father. Yes. When you have kids, kids with an S, Billy knows what I'm talking about. It's just a cacophony of noise all the goddamn time. And so as a father, to maintain your sanity, you just learn just a hum in the background. I have no idea. Yes, he plays music. I don't know what he's playing.

Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
All I know, I have memories of individual moments like the day he played Pink Pony Strip Club.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
Great song. Worth it. I was like, that's the first time I've ever heard it. And everyone's like, oh, it's the best song. And I'm like, nah. And then the next song was Toto Africa. And everybody was singing along like it was karaoke. And I was like, see, that's a great song.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
Yeah, well, I'm just saying. There's a reason why.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
I love you. Jeremy, let me tell you something. Forget about Total Africa. That's a Hall of Fame. Why am I bringing that up? It's not even as catchy as Partying in the USA. It's not even as catchy as Party in the USA.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
It's not as catchy as Party in the USA. Then a Jay-Z song came on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
I thought they were color-coded. What happened?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
Osama is what I said. They played a party in the USA?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
No, the people outside. Remember they gathered outside the White House and they were playing a party in the USA?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
Well, then you should have been playing party.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
Have you ever had like a really good tuna steak?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
Too much Lehman. Too much Lehman. He's like, I'm a behind-the-scenes guy. I learned a lot about him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
Guys, I have a question. I've listened to the show the last couple of days. Zaslow, he does this thing that I used to attribute to Mike Ryan, then I realized Witty does it too, and then I heard Zaslow do it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Steaks For Stakes
Ah, without having ah conversation.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
I think I gave you too much credit because I thought the story was going Lehman's out of town. So me and my best friend Priya have been going out and eating sushi every night in the fanciest places. And I'm like, wow, you got to watch out for mercury poisoning from all that sushi. And instead it's like, no, I'm eating cans of tuna like a bachelor, like a sad bachelor.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
No, no, it reduces muscle mass. Well, no, the cold plunge is all about extracting the lactic acid from your muscles, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Oh wait, I thought you meant the microplastics came in little balls, not they were literally found in the balls.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
So wait, if they're in the balls, how do they get out? Apple pectin.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
I also want to point out that last night, maybe I'm revealing confidences here, but Mike proudly said that you is going to whoop up on Notre Dame this year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
From one Knicks fan to another. Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
I don't think I need to. Also, isn't apologizing the biggest thing a Catholic has to do?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
I don't think this topic would be good for us either.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Well, Dan's favorite tequila is Cuervo, and Cuervo's not in any lawsuits. So what are you talking about, Billy girl? What are you talking about?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Yeah, I think the grandma not allowing Pope jokes is the most Catholic thing you can be. So that would confirm that, like, usually when you're, are you such and such if this happens? They have to be opposites, right? Like, are you Catholic to your core if you don't observe Lent? That's the way that setup kind of works.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
The way you're doing it is, are you Catholic to your core if this Catholic to your core thing is happening? Well, yeah. Yeah, it is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
It's like a shirtless dude, but he has the priest collar on, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Do 10 reps of shame. Rosary counts, right? Doing like one, two, three. I don't know how to count on a rosary.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Look, I don't want to divert audiences elsewhere, but if you want to do conspiracy theory talk, Basketball Illuminati has you covered. We covered this exhaustively, and it's not the lazy, oh, it's because they try to look at, like, we've got math involved. We've got numbers. You don't want to miss a thrilling new episode of Basketball Illuminati wherever you get podcasts.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Well, this is the easy explanation why it's not rigged, right? Prison! Yes, that's why. The lottery happens in a back room, right? Like what we see on TV, that's not the lottery. That's the lottery results that they create a TV show around, right? The actual lottery happens in a back room, and there's a representative from every team that's in the lottery.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
There's Ernst & Young who are doing the accounting, and then there's NBA security, and then there are also media members there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Yeah, like Ben Goliver, for instance. People like me. Well, not people like you. Actual journalists.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
By the way, the exec you're talking about is Rick Welts. Rick Welts, I worked with him in Phoenix. Rick Welts is the guy that invented All-Star Weekend. Rick Welts was instrumental in the invention of USA Basketball. He was supposed to be, at one point they were saying he was going to be the next commissioner of the NBA. So shout out to Rick Welts.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
So when they say someone has a 14% chance, really what they mean is there are 140 different combinations that are pre-assigned, right? And then you just wait and see what balls come up. We've had years where people have, I believe there's a year where the Spurs kept winning it, right? Like they won the top three picks. Because they draw number one first. Yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
The reality is, this is like what people say, oh, the only reason why X team won was because everyone got injured. You should put an asterisk on it. And the reality is when you go through the history of the NBA, every champion has an asterisk. Same thing here. Any team that would have won, we would have been like, oh, of course. If San Antonio had won, we would have been like, oh, of course.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
They always win it. If Philly had won, like, oh, of course. They're trying to get them because of.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
He just got the number one overall pick.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Then he winked and pointed at him, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Zazz, this is the plight of so many NBA players that they don't know shit about how this league works. Not how the salary cap works. Not how trades work. Not how the draft lottery works. Not how polls work. Not how awards work. They don't know shit. LeBron, I guarantee you, when he was shitting on all the guys who said this guy was overrated, he thought probably fans voted that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
He didn't even realize it was players. By the way, Rachel Nichols did the math.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
This is my favorite thing. Rachel Nichols did the math. It was like, what the percentage of people who said Tyrese Halliburton was overrated, and then how many players responded in the poll, comes out to 13 guys. Yeah, in the whole league. 13 NBA players said he was overrated. That's what we've been running with this whole time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
One of them absolutely was LeBron. Jessica, come on. Come on. I'm just trying to figure out who did this, right? Him in the hot dog costume right there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
So, OK, so they already before the injury were dealing with, oh, what are they going to do? Because the money is incredibly high and then they got new ownership. Right. So those things are already coming in. Now you got Tatum is out. Tatum is going to be out for an entire year. This is the recovery time for a ruptured Achilles. So how good are they going to be as is?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
I guess we'll get a taste of that tonight. We'll see what it looks like when Tatum isn't out there. But there's going there was already whispers that they're going to have to start making some moves. Maybe those whispers turn into yells and screams.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
I hate that light bulb head he had when he shaved his head.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
The pride and joy of Cheska Moscow. The fanfare helps.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Gave up too much. Still a mistake. He was going to come in free agency anyway. They had the cash space. They didn't need to do all that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
What about when Mario Hazonia dunked on Giannis Antetokounmpo? That was a time. I thought he was going to be good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Well, Jessica, first of all, I don't know why you said if the Pacers and the Knicks play in the next round. It's not like the Celtics are coming back.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Also, Jessica, I want to apologize to you because you said
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
timothy is the patron saint of city kids and i thought you meant timothy moskov and i was kind of confused but i was like i want a yes i'm gonna yes and yeah sure i could see there are a lot of russians in the city and i was like why was why is she going on this moskov tangent and then it hit me like oh she means chalamet yeah sorry you described him as a patron saint and i believe in the past you've been described as unapologetically catholic how do you feel about a chicago pope
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
This is going to sound dumb, but somehow a pope using a cell phone is such a mind F for me right now. Like what? The pope had a cell phone? What year are we in?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Him and Nigel from the show. I don't know his real name. David Hyde Pierce. Oh, yeah, him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
By the way, that's probably what Kelsey Grammer's dad is like, right? Just like an all-American guy, and then he's got a son who talks like this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
We're having an argument right here. What does a chemist do in a hospital that's different from what a pharmacist would do in a hospital?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
Oh, I thought you meant thirst traps of, like, the animals. Like, it would be, like, Yogi Bear. No, that's, like, something Ron used.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
No, but they don't change the title. The Curb one I followed too, and it was like, it's always these clips from Curb, and like, ha ha, remember when Larry did this, remember when Larry did that, and all of a sudden there's a school teacher, and it's like, boing, everything pops up. I'm like, what the hell's going on here?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
And it shoots to the top of my feed. It's not even me scrolling.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Catholic To Your Core
This is what we need. Dan, I'm going to tell you, we don't need a victory lap for you. We need a loser's lap. You've got to do a loser lap in there.
