Chapter 1: What are the hosts debating about attending a concert?
This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
We've got baseball segregated again. Jeremy is just doing things with Adnan Virk and the other baseball boys. Pitch clock is at the end of this hour where all your baseball needs will be met. We think that we didn't get a payoff from the pseudoscientists in Big Earwax, but I am told... that Roy, from the guffawing laughter I heard in the other studio, that there was shame in Roy's ear.
I don't know the extent of the shame. Roy, have you seen what it is that emerged from your ear with that fire vacuum?
Yeah, that's some stuff, Dan.
What is the color of that stuff?
It looks like it's brown or dark red.
Yeah, it's almost black. So wait a minute, that is a lot of stuff there.
Most of that is actually candle wax, but like inside there, up there towards the top, you can see the ear wax. Okay, I thought that was coming out of his ear. No, 98% of that is traditional candle wax.
Roy, how do you feel about what was in your ear? Because it looks like you're holding a little throw up in your mouth. It looks like you're disgusted by what was in your ear.

Chapter 2: What funny moments arise from the discussion about earwax?
Well, the best thing that happened in the earwax experience was Zaz falling. Yes.
Yes.
Well, let's play that sound and video again so people can see. Again, this was earlier in the show. Zaslow said that it doesn't matter that he didn't play sports. He should be able to criticize all great athletes however he wants. And here is Zaslow trying to sit in a chair.
I mean, maybe. All right, everybody take it easy. Everybody calm down. Everybody calm down.
You're used to sitting in chairs.
I don't know what was so funny about that. I didn't fall. I sat down exactly where I intended to. Seemed like everything was okay to me. You stumbled. Stumbled into what I wanted to do.
You talk about secondhand embarrassment. I want you to watch in the background here as he stumbles around trying to, again, just sit in a chair where Jeremy hides his eyes from everything that's happening with his earphones.
I mean, maybe. All right, everybody take it easy. Everybody calm down. Everybody calm down. You're used to sitting in chairs. Come on. You're done. I don't see what the big deal was. That floor was slippery. It's a rug.
That was actually exactly what happened to Wayne Newton in Vegas, and Tony stopped the chair. That was the exact thing where Wayne Newton, old, frail Wayne Newton, was trying to sit in his chair, and it started to go back, and if it wasn't for Tony stopping his chair... We would have gone viral for something horrible that day.

Chapter 3: What story does Tony share about Wayne Newton?
We had odd chairs on that set.
They were high. High chairs. Tony saved the life of Wayne Newton. Zaslow just reminded me of the video from earlier in the week that we had of Jerry Jones seeing former President Bill Clinton and just sort of staggering into the distance because that was not a moment of great grace from Zaslow there. You saw everything that happened there and you're just not disgraced in any way.
No. Number one, I had a clean ear. That's a huge win. And number two, I meant to sit down in that seat. And what was the end game? I sat down in the seat.
Well, while speaking clearly and getting your points off without being ejected from the room by Mike, who no longer let you speak. You say that was some grand success. You were kicked out of the room.
I didn't feel that I was being respected, so I got up on my own will, my own power, and I left the room.
Okay. All right. Well, I think, though, that here's where I wanted to lead us with all of this nonsense involving Zazz in the chair. I believe he's going to end up at a concert tonight where everyone sits down this way because it's going to be nothing but old people. Now, something me and Valerie enjoy doing. I don't know whether I told you guys this or not.
We were like, I'm going to say 80 minutes, 90 minutes early for something when we were heading a little bit up north. And we saw on a billboard that it just said playing tonight at Dania Highlight, Quiet Riot. OK, like an 80s metal band. And we're like, we got to stop and just see what that crowd is like. Let's just go in there and see what it's like.
We were going to do this the other day with Foreigner at the Hard Rock just to see what old band like them. Old bands. We don't like them anymore? Sound like. What happened? I'm surprised foreigners welcome here.
I just like the idea that you and Valerie go to check out what the crowd looks like and someone turns and goes, whoa, Dan Lebitard is here.

Chapter 4: How does the trivia game 'The Pitch Clock' work?
No, it's great. It's insane because the thing that's wrong with their performance is Axl's voice is shot. It's totally shot. And it's certainly shot by the end of three hours. I'd rather him just kind of take it easy and give me 90 minutes of the pure stuff. Just give me the hits.
I think they go on out there, no opening act. And Mike's right. They play for like three hours. So I think you get your money's worth. I'm into it. I love Axel. I mean, he's not dancing around out there in his underwear anymore, Dan.
He is dancing around.
Doing the moves. But he still does the moves. Yeah, he still does the moves.
I'm into it. So wait, are you alleging that Axel Rose now dances with the microphone the way he did in the heyday where it was swinging and swaying back and forth?
Not the way that he did in the heyday. Not exactly.
But he's still attempting, so I like it. I told you guys, again, this is old music because I told you guys that it had to be 20 years ago that I thought rock and roll died in the lobby of a New York hotel when Axl Rose tried to fight Tommy Hilfiger and did not win. I thought that I was in New York when rock and roll died because of what I just described.
You can't have the most famous of the front men for cool losing a fight in a hotel lobby to Tommy Hilfiger. Slender man, no? Tommy Hilfiger? Well, they're both. They're both very slender. I mean, I would describe Axl Rose as frail. As frail a front man as you will ever find.
Someone you don't want falling off a chair at this point in their life. Someone that would have difficulty sitting in a chair. Well, yeah, he's knocking on heaven's door at this point.

Chapter 5: What insights does Adnan Virk provide on the Boston Red Sox?
He's a confident shooter, though, man.
That hit rim. Dion Waiters. Yeah, it hit rim. He's taking shots.
We reset the shot clock.
Yeah, sometimes it's going to work.

The other night I was staying in. At least that was a plan. Then the text from my buddy Eagle Eye comes in. Mike, we've got the games on. I say, yeah. I grab a pack of Miller Lite and immediately my plan's gone. Now it's playoff basketball. Every possession feels huge. Baseball's on another screen and I somehow care about that too. Everybody's got takes flying. Nobody's watching just one thing.
and we're all way more into it than we ever expected. It was one of those nights that you take a sip, you look around, and you think, yeah, this was the right move.

Dan Levatard. It sounds to me like everybody could use a hug because a hug is always the right size. Stugatz. All I have put in my body today is three cups of coffee and an entire cup of honey. Don't let him fool you. He said in the break that he's jittery. This is the Dan Levatard Show with the Stugatz. While we're celebrating, Jeremy, can we show his logo for his talking with Tao Shea?
How terrible he looks.
This is unfortunate. Is that Chris Whittingham's picture? That's Mike Biamonte.
Who was that? That's supposed to be you?
You approve that? They did you no favors. That did not hit the rim. Okay, that was a shot clock violation. No, that's next. That's next segment.
What was unfortunate was he was about to say shot cock. He stopped, and then he said shot cock again. Oh, man. That's what Jeremy looked like before he started eating the sad turkey sandwiches for lunch. Don't forget the salmon.
Roy, that ear.
