All right, kicking things off with Smirnoff, the official vodka sponsor of the NFL and the number one vodka in the world. Chris Cody, you're here. Smirnoff! 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. Smirnoff! All right, here's the deal. Game day is everything. And that's exactly why your fit has to match the occasion. Smirnoff! Starting this December, Smirnoff is giving fans 21 and over the chance to score limited edition Smirnoff commission merchandise from some of today's top creators, including Kayla Jones, Gavin Matthew, and Alaylee May.
Smirnoff!
Dan Le Batard 1:12
Here's the kicker. One lucky fan will take home the grand prize, a trip to the biggest game of the offseason. Plus, one fan will win Alaylee May's one-of-one game day jacket. Wow. The merch will be dropped on select dates from December to January 21, and it's all courtesy of what brand?
Smirnoff!
Dan Le Batard 1:26
That's right, Chris. Fans 21 and over can head to Smirnoff Socials to learn how to sign up. And don't forget to grab a bottle of Smirnoff vodka, number 21, at your local retail. Smirnoff. Please drink responsibly. Smirnoff. Number 21 vodka distilled from grain, 40% alcohol by volume. The Smirnoff Company, New York, New York. Please do not share with anybody under legal drinking age.

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.

How did Billy's first words on air impact the show?

Dan Le Batard 2:04
Always drink your Jägermeister 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.
Chris Cody 2:20
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.
Dan Le Batard 2:30
Exactly. You're finally starting to get it. Drink responsibly. Jagermeister liqueur, 35% alcohol by volume, imported by Mass Jagermeister U.S., White Plains, New York. Now what? This doesn't qualify.
Stugotz 2:47
This does not qualify.
Dan Le Batard 2:48
It's got to be huge breaking news. It's not just sniffing around Bill Belichick. He's a voyeur at this point. This is getting weird. It's not a big episode unless it means there.
Unknown 2:58
That's true. But it is a pretty ridiculous episode.
Dan Le Batard 3:03
I mean, it's a good find.
Unknown 3:04
The lost tapes and whatnot. It's a great find. But you know what it is, Mike? It's a window into... how the power dynamics at play. Because I think all this time we've been saying it's Jordan and she's running the stuff or whatever. And according to this episode, it's a Game of Thrones. It's not just her, because Mike Lombardi's in there, too. And he's got the ear, and he's pulling. But at the same time, him and Jordan don't like each other. And so it's like a competition for the ear of the king. So it's a facet. How long is this thing going to blow?
Dan Le Batard 3:45
You know who comes out smelling like roses? Matt Patricia in all this. He's even had a glow-up of sorts. He's skinny. Patricia is skinny. Patricia is actually a Chris Cody thing. Are you regretful that you were there the first day that the Balmer thing came out? I mean, because now it feels like you're part of this situation, and I would imagine this is burning some bridges for you professionally.
