Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.
Mike 0:40

What is the story behind the corn dog eating contest?

Dan Le Batard 0:54
What's going on with our corn dog eating contest? Weren't we supposed to do that today? Where are you, Greg Cody, on this corn dog eating contest? I saw that there were corn dogs out there. Is that a piece of confetti that has fallen from the peacock announcement that we made? Right here, a piece of confetti. How many months ago was that? They're still falling from the roof here. Still worth celebrating. Confetti here from our peacock partnership. A partnership that will include a corn dog eating contest. How did we get to a corn dog eating contest? I don't even remember.
Chris Cote 1:26
I think Billy watched one.
Dan Le Batard 1:28
He watched one? Oh, he went to one.
Mike 1:30
That's how Domino got invited to your Domino tournament. That's binding, by the way.
Dan Le Batard 1:33
Speaking of which, that Domino tournament, if you don't play Dominoes, there are going to be 100, 120 people playing Dominoes, but there will be hundreds of other people there, tickets available if you want to be interacting with any of the people that are there. We're trying to make this, as I mentioned, very intimate so that you actually get interactions with us.
Unidentified 1:54
So what do I get when I win the Domino tournament? Has that been established?
Dan Le Batard 1:57
There will be prizes and there will be swag. But what's going on with our corn dog eating contest?
Chris Cote 2:03
We're trying around here to, you know, connect the shows throughout the week. We have a show and we're like, hey, let's do – so we talked about a corn dog contest. So after that show, we're like, hey, let's do a corn dog contest the next week. And then I woke up today and I was just like, is this – I feel like this is kind of – I don't want my dad to choke on a hot dog. Like I – I'm worried about people throwing up. Is it actually that funny? Are we going to be good at it? I just kind of lost enthusiasm for the whole thing this morning.
Greg Cote 2:27
Yeah, my problem with it was, and no offense to whoever procured the corn dogs, but I don't like a store-bought corn dog. I have to eat a corn dog on a midway, on a carnival midway, calliope music playing in the background.
Chris Cote 2:44
So you have carnival corn dogs not being frozen at one point.
Greg Cote 2:48
No, they're home, they're handmade. Yeah, they dip them into the cornmeal and they put them into the fryer.
Unidentified 2:54
That's how Gregory likes it.
Greg Cote 2:55
That's exactly right. I want to see it made. I think we bought like 20 frozen corn dogs. Yeah, see, that's not going to work for me. I need it to come out of the oil. And dipped. Yes, and dipped. Tony knows.

What are the highlights of the Renaissance Festival experience?

Dan Le Batard 3:06
So you're not going to participate?
Greg Cote 3:08
I'm holding out for handmade, homemade corn dogs that I see dipped and extracted from the earl. That's what I want.
Dan Le Batard 3:21
So carnivals, fairs.
Greg Cote 3:23
Yeah, a midway. A carnival midway with calliope music.
Dan Le Batard 3:27
Put it on the poll, please, at Levitard Show. Does a corn dog taste better at a carnival than anywhere else?
Chris Cote 3:35
You know what I had at the Renaissance Festival this past weekend? A deep fried peanut butter and jelly. It was basically like funnel cake with the powder on the outside and you bite into the center of it, some peanut butter and jelly. It was delightful.
Stugatz 3:48
The Dade County Youth Fair comes back on Thursday. We went last year, didn't we?
Mike 3:52
Yes, we did. But this year it's a retro youth fair.
Stugatz 3:55
Yes, it's a retro youth fair.
Chris Cote 3:57
That was my first. I went with Roy and our kids last year, and that was the most impressive fair I've ever been to. I had never been. And I've been to fairs. I had never been to the one down in Miami. To Dade County Youth Fair? Dude, it is the largest. Any fair, people in their minds right now, they've been to fairs. It's like four times the size of your fair.
