Chapter 1: What is the best sound from Greg Cody in 2025?
This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
Hump Day! New Year's Eve! How about that? You know what that means? Maybe we should have done this yesterday, but we're not. We're doing it today. End your year with Greg Cody. Not a Greg Cody Tuesday, but a Greg Cody Wednesday. We've got a couple hours coming at you here. Chris, what would you say are maybe two of your favorite sounds that your father made this year? I mean...
I need your support. That's one hour you're about to hear.
And then hello.
Wow, you nailed it right off the bat. It's the hello. Those two sounds. I mean, he brought it this year.
All the time.
Great year for Greg Cody. Great year for Greg. Great year for Greg. Great 2025. Looking forward to having him in 2026.

Chapter 2: How does Greg Cody's Ethel Merman impersonation unfold?
We'll get all your Greg Cody Tuesdays and some Mondays and probably some Wednesdays and Thursdays. Greg Cody all the time, forever. Happy end of 2025, everybody. We'll see you next year.
Chris, you should know better than to agitate your father as soon as we're starting what we're doing here. You come into the room and your dad has limped in with a cane and you're badgering him about... You get emotional these days about anything and you say... You weeped on the podcast. And I really thought your father was going to correct you there and say it's wept, kid. I'm a writer.
I thought he was going to be offended. He didn't do that. He said weeped is too strong. Fought back a tear or two is how he would phrase it. So why are you getting so emotional and fighting back tears but not weeping?
Okay. There's an obvious line there. Everybody knows it. When you weep, you're like openly, almost sobbing.
Weeping is the neighbor of sobbing. It might be the neighbor of sobbing, but it's not a synonym with sobbing. Weeping is the stop before sobbing.
Okay, I think they're neighbors. I think they're exchanging cups of sugar. End of the cul-de-sac. They're friendly.
They're on the same street, but end of the cul-de-sac.
Okay, weeping and sobbing to me, you go, ah-hoo!
That's sobbing.

Chapter 3: What are the funniest moments from Greg Cody's podcast?
Weeping is just a few breaths. You know I'm crying.
It's... Okay. At any rate... Sobbing has shoulders shaking. It's a bit uncontrollable. Weeping is single tears. Sobbing is a flume of tears.
I don't agree with that at all.
There's no such thing as a single tear.
I think weeping requires several tears. Weeping is stronger than crying.
I said weeping is single tears, not a single tear. It's just a tear or two or three or four, whereas sobbing is just a river of tears. You can't control it. Weeping is the stop before sobbing.
Weeping is a single file line of tears, one at a time, whereas sobbing, it's like they're everywhere.
They're just pouring down my face. You're giving sobbing too much credit. Weeping is about as emotional as you get. When you weep, there's nothing left. Like weeping is, I almost said worse, weeping is more than sobbing. No. In my opinion.
No. Oh, yeah.

Chapter 4: Why does Greg Cody get emotional during the podcast?
They might even be in the same apartment building. Tell you who's bawling, Norman Powell. Yeah. You know about that Norman Powell's ass? That's my gimmick, yo.
By the way, I lauded the Norman Powell trade. That's another thing I predicted right. Wait a minute.
Another thing you predicted right? Are you going to take credit for the Dolphins today?
Well, yeah. I mean, you saw the game Sunday. The Dolphins showed up. It took them until midseason, but they showed up. My Dolphins.
Another thing you predicted right?
I lauded the Norman Powell. I called it a pickpocket for Pat Riley. He got Norman Powell for nothing. Now Norman Powell ranks on everyone's early season MVP list.
He was an all-star last year, wasn't he? He was an all-star, correct?
So just to confirm, right from the get-go, you thought it was a good trade, Norman Powell and just giving up Kevin Love and Kyle Anderson. Yes.
Okay.

Chapter 5: What is the significance of the cane in Greg Cody's story?
All right, so the Norman Powell story, just to be clear, you figured out the way to make that about you.
Well, I mean, you know, nobody else was applauding the Norman Powell.
Everybody was.
Craig. No.
Greg, Mike Ryan went from being out on the heat to never mind, I cancel all my opinions based on nothing but the acquisition of Norman Powell.
The thing about that is he's got such a plain name. There's never been a Norman Powell that excites you. There was never a moment you thought Kevin Love, Kyle Anderson, too much. Nobody thought that.
Yes, he's kidding. Dead wood.
Pieces of driftwood.
Give me the greatest norm ever in the history of sports norms. Sports norms. Is that going to be the best? The third guy on the champion Lakers? The fourth guy on the champion Lakers team? The fourth guy on a champion Lakers team, Norm Nixon, is going to be the best.

Chapter 6: How do we differentiate between weeping and sobbing?
That was a really great basketball game last night. And Greg Cody insists that he's right about the Dolphins. And I will get to those things in a second. But I have to start with our old friend, Greg Cody, limping in here with his trick knee and a cane. A cane that has made him emotional for good reason. Jeremy asked me during the intro, is wailing a top bawling, sobbing, and weeping?
Because I think wailing is, if we're talking about being in tears, I think weeping is the beginning of the highway toward you're falling apart. Weeping is the beginning of that. I think it goes weeping, sobbing, bawling, wailing. Where's crying? Crying is the starting point. Crying is ground zero.
But where do you have blubbering on that list?
Because blubbering, I don't know if that's above wailing, but it's right there. Blubbering has to be above sobbing, doesn't it? Although sobbing has some blubbering, does it not? Blubbering's a cartoon word.
I think hysterical is obviously, that's a very deep cry. I think wailing is the deep cry with like, like that's a wail, okay? And blubbering, blubbering, you also have snot bubbles. Blubbering is the...
yeah that's not no that's sniveling that's that's sobbing too so what are we calling this calling this the tears of tears ah that's what we're doing roy we're doing the tears of tears an important tier the no shot moreno during the national anthem tier where does that rank because that is a massive tier that's my that's the the fight in detroit that's what that is
All right, you guys got to figure out how it is to get me to the best of the ugly criers you've ever seen in sports, because now we have to get to who classifies for wailing, bawling, sobbing, weeping in the history of sports.
A good good crier in sports, Thomas Hill, after Christian Laettner makes the shot. Thomas Hill, ugly crier.
Can you guys think off of the top of your head of some time you have seen an athlete just sobbing? Oddly enough, the image that the image that. What surprises me as we talk about it is Udonis Haslam in the Heat locker room in 2006.

Chapter 7: What insights do they share about Norman Powell's impact on the Heat?
No, I'm not going to cry right now. But this cane, I believe it was bought in a... in a Deep South General store, like in North Carolina or someplace. And it was my dad's late in his life when he used a cane. And this cane had not been touched for more than a decade.
I did use it as my first foray as the owner of the Cyclones.
I had the cowboy hat and the cane. That's true, you did. You're right. Yeah, but outside of that, it hadn't been used. Is that desecrating it or no? I think it is desecrating.
Just making sure. I think that's honoring it. Wait a minute. What do you think? It fit the character. We need the judge. Is that honoring him or is it desecrating it? We'll get to the rest of the story, but let's make Zaslow. Give me the details again real quick. Make a ruling. Greg Cody was alleging that this cane of his father's, Wild Bill Cody, had not been used in 10 years.
It had been in the garage or somewhere else?
It had been on two nails. on top of a door in the garage.
It's not been used by me in more than a decade. All right, hold on a second. Before we go down this path, that garage is an atrocity. If there is anything being honored... It's my atrocity. It is your atrocity. That garage has been an atrocity for 40 years. It is dirty. It is out of saw. It is awful.
But if there is anything being honored in there, I might think that that's the only thing because there's nothing else that you put up on a wall. That's been above the door in your garage since your father was alive, I feel like. Correct. Yes, absolutely. When did he pass away? 2007.
six okay so that's the only thing in your garage that is an honor of any kind to anyone yeah right all right so you're he's saying that it hadn't been taken off for 10 years but one day old parasol parasol wielding owner of the cyclones comes in there and says i need something funny as an outfit for my owner of a highlight team and he reaches up there it's probably dusty right it's probably got because i don't see your father cleaning that a whole lot

Chapter 8: What are the final thoughts on the Miami Heat's performance this season?
I would have been taken aback a little bit. I would have been surprised. I made my ruling. Whoa. It's a disgrace. Oh, my God.
Unforgivable. Unforgiven. That's all I needed to hear. That's the only information I needed right there. That's a disgrace.
I support the ruling. Okay, if it's true, if it is indeed true, and I'm not sure it is because I can see Greg forgetting, but I can also see his son not asking permission because he knew that permission was going to be no.
Ask for forgiveness. Learn that from around here.
As for forgiveness, not for permission. I was trying to teach that the entire time at ESPN. They never really believed in it. So tell us the story then. Forgive us for interrupting you. Excellent ruling. Tony, good work by you. In fact, you know, delayed penalty on Chris Cody for desecrating Wild Bill Cody's cane. A penalty for that? Minor penalty. Two minutes, asshole.
It's two minutes for asshole. It's not two minutes comma asshole. Like, I don't know why they read it like that. It might be because they don't know how to do comedy. Who did that? You know who did that.
Come on, you know.
It's two minutes for being an asshole, and it should be five minutes. Anyway, tell us the story of the cane, please.
I'm just curious, though, in the history of the show, who is the previous person penalized for desecrating a cane? I'm just curious how common that particular ruling is.
