Chris, you know what goes great with Smirnoff? Smirnoff! Yes, but I'm really talking about the game day fit. The style's got to match the vibe. Smirnoff! All right, here's the deal.

This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
For me, that's word association. Christmas Eve and Stan Van Gundy talking to baseball managers.
Oh, yeah. From now on, it will be. Every time I think of Christmas Eve, I'm going to think of baseball managers with Stan Van Gundy. And this hour has a little bit more baseball. I'm going to be honest with you, Chris. This right here is probably the most awkward hour that we have combined of some very strange content. First, more baseball, Cal Ripken Jr. Okay, an interview with Cal Ripken Jr. in 2008. This is March of 2008, of which Dan starts by asking him, Obama or Hillary?
Like a game show? Yeah, because Dan. Because Dan. Oh, because was that like we were voting there? Yeah. Who would you prefer? Oh, okay. Cal Ripken Jr., who famously does not talk about politics? Obama or Hillary. I mean, I don't hate that game of like going to the movies. Obama or Hillary. See, that's a... I'd rather go with Obama.
All right. So let's, at the turn of the new year, Chris, I want you and I to propose that when we start
This year, 2026. First show back. I'm serious now.
We're not doing a bit. I want to play with Dan. I want to start the local hour. Play a sounder.
Obama or Hillary. I'm about to have my year in review with Carl. I'm going to pitch that. Can you pitch it? Chris, I'm serious. I'm going to pitch clock it.
So we start with with that, including, you know, A-Rod patterning himself after Cal. There's some he Dan said, hey, which athletes do you wish would shut up? There's good stuff there. Then a game with Bomani Jones.
True or Kukua? ah based on anti-tail yes some questionable music sounders used in that one and then we're gonna play you three straight interviews in which the guest hung up on the show nice joan rivers michael phelps nice and nick lachey oh i remember all those i don't even know i think joan rivers is probably my favorite there but those were all great they're really good the nick lachey one
I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did. Yeah. I'm just going to be honest. His patience level. Anyway, weird hour you're about to listen to. Enjoy it. Wower.
He's a Hall of Famer. He does a ton for kids. Learned at his father's knee. and does a lot of good stuff for kids, pours himself into that. We'll talk about real baseball, what he's selling these days in a moment. But first, Cal Ripken Jr., Obama or Hillary? Maybe I got the wrong show. So you're not going anywhere near it? You don't want any part of it?
