0.031 - 8.5 Dan Le Batard

This is the Dan Levitard Show with the Stugatz Podcast.

0

8.52 - 25.559

This episode of the Dan Levitard Show is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Yo, I'm going to see Disclosure Day tonight. That's right. How about that? That's the new Spielberg. You nervous? Oh, it's just a movie. What do you mean am I nervous?

0

25.619 - 26.48 Dan Le Batard

What time does your movie start?

0

26.5 - 42.757

It's a documentary. What time does the movie start? Let me look. That's his own question. You said you'd be watching every second. I know you're trying to. You're trying to. He said he loved the soccer. And then he asked me before the show what happened last night. You're trying to make this a gotcha moment, all right? Yes. I think it's going to misfire.

0

42.777 - 59.035

For the record, I have to defend Zaslow here. He didn't claim that he's a soccer enthusiast. I said I like it a lot. He said he loved the soccer. He said he'd be watching every second of USA Soccer. He said he loved the soccer. That's true. All right. If I'm missing, I was trying to have your back here. All right. No, thank you. I appreciate it. Why don't you have my back?

59.055 - 82.2

As an American, not necessarily as a diehard. This gotcha moment is going to backfire on these guys because Disclosure Day starts at 6 p.m. What a loser movie time. It's not a loser movie time when you want to watch USA. And the movie ends at 8.45. Most people are enjoying their Friday happy hours. That's going to be a movie.

82.34 - 82.701 Dan Le Batard

Play on.

83.042 - 104.643

Play on. Did you perhaps get lucky? Because I would know for a fact if I was free and clear to watch U.S. Men's National Team. Now, when I bought the tickets a week ago for Disclosure Day, did I also check what time Team USA was playing on Friday night? Maybe not. But nonetheless, it's all worked out timing-wise.

105.224 - 118.43

I will be home on the couch, very uncomfortable couch, in the Zazzle Mansion family room watching Team USA. I will not miss any of that. So you're going to watch it at home? Because I was just asking the guys, like, hey, what are you guys going to do? Are you guys going to go out? Are you going to watch it at home? What do you think? I'm too old. I'm too old. Too old.

Chapter 2: What are Amin's initial observations from the World Cup?

396.003 - 424.93 Amin Elhassan

Again, there were pictures, but we'll fix it in post. South Africa. On the losing side of the opener, gave up two goals and received two red cards. Other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln? The Brazilian referee handing out three red cards. He's no Billy Kennedy, but he might be Billy Crystal. Hey. And then there's a picture of Billy Crystal from Forget Paris rejecting everyone.

0

424.97 - 426.972

I'm being told there are no pictures of me.

0

427.424 - 432.792 Amin Elhassan

There were pictures in the document that I sent to multiple people, so... They were sent in a PDF, so it was wrong format.

0

432.812 - 443.087

No pictures, Amin! Oh, jeez. Yeah, next time, appropriate format. All right. Now, everyone, let's lay our swords down and realize we'll be better next time. It starts with us.

0

444.689 - 470.398 Amin Elhassan

Oh, and Ethan's not in today, so... South Korea and Chechya. It's the same format I send the pictures in every week, but whatever. Again with the pictures. South Korea and... I'm just saying, like... It starts with us. All right. Every week, but you know, okay. South Korea and Chechya played a hell of a match in Gwanghwuda. And then there was a picture of Lou Dobbs. Because that's funny.

470.818 - 479.266

Hwang In-bum. And kill back here. Back row. That has a historical context. I love that joke of me. And it was a banger of a game.

479.286 - 502.386 Amin Elhassan

A clash of styles. Great game. I was locked in. I love South Korea. Hwang In-bum. Goal of the tournament. And I love that he grinned before the ball even crossed the line. Go back and watch me play. Or maybe see the picture that I had. Like, the ball is still in the air and he's got a smile on his face like, oh, I got these guys nasty on this one. Love it. I love the World Cup.

503.817 - 524.285 Amin Elhassan

Zazz, and Mike, and Tony, and Roy, and Chris, and everyone else. I'd like to debut a little sub show within the show, within the show. Keep in track at home, the show's a Dale Epitard show. We have World Cup observations, there's a show within the show. And within that, I've got a show within the show with a show called Back in My Day World Cup Edition. Back in my day, you only had two subs.

525.487 - 535.343 Amin Elhassan

Five? You need five substitutions? Give me a break. Speaking of breaks, back in my day, we didn't get a hydration break.

Chapter 3: What questions does Dave Dameshek raise about the World Cup?

535.364 - 556.056 Amin Elhassan

You just toughed it out. If you got tired, you went by the goalie, you had a little water bottle there, maybe you hit the sideline, they throw you a water bottle, you throw it back. Time out. We need a hydration break, everyone. What the hell is that? Are we handing out orange slices too? And then I had a nice AI picture that I created of kids, soccer kids eating orange slices.

0

556.317 - 560.623 Amin Elhassan

I'm trying to describe for the audience. It's a theater of the mind thing. It starts with us.

0

560.723 - 568.013

Amin, it was 67 degrees for that Czechia-South Korea match, but they needed a hydration break. Czechia, what country is that?

0

569.478 - 598.287 Amin Elhassan

My water break. Oh, I can go on now. All right. Leave it to the American World Cup to give us the Mountain Dew hydration break brought to you by Dodge Ram. Again, because we are actively desecrating the game. And loud we trust. The American World Cup. You know who I miss? Mike, join me in this one. You miss this guy too? I miss Sepp Blatter. Sure, he was corrupt as all get out.

0

599.144 - 619.436 Amin Elhassan

But at least his corruption made other world leaders kiss his ass instead of the other way around. If he was still around, we'd have a World Cup held in North America as opposed to the American World Cup. Those are the World Cup observations. Very good. Mike, what were you telling me before?

619.836 - 624.521

What? I'm the only soccer guy? Come on. And next time, get the photos.

624.541 - 625.862 Amin Elhassan

All the references went this way.

625.882 - 647.023

Send some photos next time. You were telling me about the broadcast of this World Cup this year. There are things you like about the broadcast so far, and there are things you don't like, right? So I was a little confused at first. They had two matches, and the presentations were a little bit different. Now, international soccer is more vibrant.

647.203 - 664.558

I'm used to the European presentation, and FIFA has usually followed that. But they did some unique things before this match. I mean, I don't know if you felt the same way, but the in-stadium music that leads up to the kickoff, it's a festive atmosphere. They were actually feeding that through the truck, and it was cool.
