Wow, you're on the money with Smirnoff. Smirnoff! 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.

Mike, you know I have one rule to live by, right? Don't place parlays on multiple long shots. Don't say a game is won when it hasn't hit triple zero.
Chapter 5: What insights does Pete Bavacqua provide about Notre Dame's football strategy?
Always drink your JƤgermeister ice cold. That's the rule. Everything else is merely a suggestion. Everything else? Everything else. Wearing clean underwear every day? Well, that's just a personal decision. Brushing your teeth? Obviously smart, but not a rule. Never pee-pee on an electric fence.
Okay, maybe there are two rules, but the one that is 100% that I insist on completely, Jagermeister, must be drank ice cold. Or don't drink it at all. Damn, that's cold. Exactly. You're finally starting to get it.
Chapter 6: What are the implications of Notre Dame's bowl game decisions?
Drink responsibly. Jagermeister liqueur, 35% alcohol by volume, imported by Mass Jagermeister U.S., White Plains, New York.
This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
The moment we have all been waiting for, Amin. Tony's top ten? No, we'll get to that. That's coming. Don't you worry. We'll get to Tony. But we have all been waiting with bated breath. Today's Wednesday. It's the middle of the week. All right. What took her so long?
The selection show was Sunday.
Chapter 7: How do the hosts analyze the impact of social media on sports narratives?
Chris, are you still the EP? And she's finally here. There she is. Why didn't you guys just have me come in on Monday? I've gone through all five stages of grief now. I'm on to acceptance. That you do this every time. Damn it. After the Northern Illinois game last year, I wasn't in on Monday for some reason. This year, we know the selection show Sunday.
Chapter 8: What future predictions are made about the college football landscape?
You have me in three. I've had three nights to sleep on this.
Why didn't we book her for the first step of the grieving process? I'm here on step five. Why is Lucy here?
I'm Mabel.
Mabel Serp? Oh, from Only Murders, I get it.
All right, Jess, look, none of us have spoken to you. I've gotten text messages from friends. I've gotten messages on Twitter. I'm at Zazzle, show them a great follow. And people are asking me, where is Jess? I want Smetana's tears. So let's start out with this, okay? Sunday, set us the scene. How did you experience Sunday afternoon?
I could not believe that after all of these years of fandom that I put into this thing, Baby Lando was the driver's championship of the 2025 Formula One season. I mean, I was just, I was bawling my eyes out. It was incredible. Thank you for asking.
Oh, this is the good shit. I've reprogrammed my brain to know that she's never going to give me anything. So when she does something like that, it's better than tears, honestly. Jess, I think your AD is actually knocking it out the park.
Bavacqua.
Bavacqua? Bavacqua. Bavac was doing a great job in making Golden Domers happy. Yesterday, probably. Is he? He's making Notre Dame fans happy. They like the way he has represented himself in the school?
