This is the Dan Levitard Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
Do you get annoyed every time Dan Levitard pontificates about the sports media industry? Well, too bad, mother******.
He knows he don't give a damn about what he's gonna say. It's time for Sports Media Talk. Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon have signed a three-year extension for PTI. I'm going to assume, but cannot say this for sure, that it will be their last contract there because I don't know how much after 80 years old Tony's going to be wanting to do that, even though people around him who love him suspect the moment you turn off that TV camera, he will just wander over to a potted plant and start giving that his sports opinions. I don't know what the details are on, did they make them go to an hour from a half hour? Because there was some thought that it would be easy to do that, which would be easy for them to do that, except you've got to pay Tony twice as much as you were paying him if you want him to do twice as much work, and that might be less easy than it used to be.
One of the greatest sports television shows, top ten of all time, correct? Top five? Like, where... Where are we putting one of the greatest sports television shows there have ever been? And does PTI rise to the level that's more than 20 plus years of chemistry on television and able to survive all of the flux at ESPN and at Disney because it's still a monster when it comes to ratings, even though very little is a monster when it comes to ratings?
I remember where I was the first time I saw the show. I think I was 19. I remember exactly where I was. and it was incredible because I remember saying to myself, well, hold up, those are the topics they're going to talk about and they're on my screen? I get to see what they're going to talk about on this show?
That's one of the great sports inventions of all time, that ticker, that timer that keeps them to 90 seconds in the event. that you are not interested in that topic. You know it's going to change in 60 seconds because what they did there is grab short attention spans before social media, before the addictions, and they're like, we're going to speed all this up for you. We're going to give you SportsCenter in a half hour and how to think about it. And I just don't know where it would rank in greatest sport. It's certainly one with the longest run. It's certainly crazy that it's a daily show, right? Because I don't think many of whatever it is we'd be nominating for best sports television of all time is going to be a daily show 240 to 300 times a year because of the need for content.
Top fives, Aslo? Top five all time?
I am building on a top ten record. Yeah, I have a hard time believing it's not top three.
How did Dan Levitard feel about the extension of Pardon The Interruption?
Of all the arguments I've had with Boog Shambi, he tends to win most of them. He's smarter about sports than I am. He also saw that come up on his screen for the first time, and he looks to me and he says, that'll never work. Because they were bad at the beginning. They didn't know what they were doing. There was no chemistry.
Well, they infamously, when the bell would ring, they would stop and look around, right?
Well, they just, yes, they didn't know how to do television necessarily as chemistry, right? They were very good at radio. They were very good in the newsroom having chemistry. But televised chemistry has to be learned. And obviously, what are you laughing about, Chris? They perfected it, obviously. Let's get a list of the top five chemists. I have a top 10. All right, we're going to get to it in a second. We're going to go through it with Bert Kreischer. Let's go through it with Bert Kreischer in a second, your top 10 list. But let's play some more sounds that we have not gotten to. I want to start with Jacksonville's owner. Tony is feeling Jacksonville, okay? They didn't even get huge games from their skill guys.
Their skill guys are good. And their defense is going to be good. And at the end of the game, Shad Khan, who is just so very happy to be out from under the stench of Urban Meyer.
