Where did the story of tequila begin?
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.
Cuervo.
Cuervo.
This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
What is Roy Wood Jr.'s latest project?
This man is always doing a lot of exceptional work. Lonely Flowers is his special. It's on Hulu. It's a hit. You should watch it. A lot of people are saying it's perfect, that he and Bill Burr have the best comedy specials going at the moment. He also has a fun show, a news show, Have I Got News For You, on CNN and Max. And now he's doing Celebrity Jeopardy, and he's sitting courtside at a Knicks game with his idol, Tom Joyner. So there's a lot to talk to him about. He's sitting opposite a very bitter Grandpa Shaq as he just takes out everyone in the league for some reason. By just sitting across from Roy and then all of a sudden Shaq is just crucifying everybody. So you sat there, Roy Wood Jr., across from Shaq and you thought what as he just let everyone in the league have it for some reason when you sat down opposite him.
What was Roy Wood Jr.'s experience on Shaq's podcast?
Here's the crazy thing about my episode on Shaq's podcast. That was the last 10 minutes of the podcast. We talked about everything but basketball for an hour. And then just at the end, hey, do you think Biggs will evolve? I'll elbow Wimby in the mouth and knock his teeth out and make him quit. And I was just like, hey, he played. I didn't. I just need to be quiet on this one. Like, I'm not sure if I completely agree, but this is not the place to disagree. I'll just put it that way. Like, you know, Shaq earned the right to take these shots. I don't know why he does it all the time. I will say that. But, you know, it was fun to sit with him in his element, but you could tell just being right across from him that he really is annoyed with the way the game is being played currently.
I think that you probably, I don't know how many times you've been around Shaq, but this happens all the time around Shaq.
That was my first time meeting him.
Okay, so did you do what everyone does about Shaq? Because you know going in, there's a thing you know about Shaq, that he's giant. And yet still, when people get next to him, they're like, God, he's big. Like, you know it going in and you still don't, you don't really actually know it.
Yeah, no, it was cool to just talk basketball with him for a second, but my question that I didn't get to in the room with him would have been like, everybody wants 90s basketball, but if you got 90s basketball without 90s referees, you're still like Shaq would be teed up and tossed before the second quarter. If you're talking about... elbowing Wimby in the mouth and then taking Chet Holmgren to the hole every time. I don't know if we're going to ever be able to play like that again. I wonder if aggression to a degree has been kind of legislated out. And to everybody else's point on that podcast, these kids now, there's no benefit to being the murderous, killer, death stare college basketball player anymore.
That's going to mess up your NIL money. Nobody's going to let you do Experian tax app commercials. If you're the mean, growling person. So I don't know if that mentality will even exist in basketball at the lower levels in another five years.
Greg Cody has alleged here, and we haven't even gotten to this today, that Florida has ruined college basketball and the transfer.
Already?
that the transfer portal has ruined college basketball.
Well, yeah, not Florida. I mean, Florida is merely taking advantage of what the NCAA has allowed. But do you agree? I mean, we've had more than 2,000 transfers just in this window. And...
How has the transfer portal changed college basketball?
I was afraid that was going to happen. I saw the little hiccup. I was afraid that was going to happen. He was coughing. As I was going to him, he was coughing, and I saw on his face that he was about to cough. He was trying to muffle the cough, and it just became clear that he was not going to win that fight.
I want to ask Roy that as much as it benefits the good teams, the rich get richer now because of the transfer portal. But it's been bad for the sport, I think, because it's just it's chaotic now. You had players transferring from teams that made the Sweet 16 this year during the tournament. It just seems ridiculous to me.
