How is Chris Cote performing as Executive Producer?
Greg, this is probably something that I should be doing off-air in private leadership meetings, but I haven't asked anybody who works here how they think Chris Cody, your son, has been doing in the executive producer job. I'd like to do that now because of something that just happened that made me sort of shake with how different the leadership is around here now, now that he's been... asserting his role. How do you guys feel, Roy, about how Chris Cody is doing being in charge, trying to grow into the role of Meadowlark executive?
Oh, very well. I thought it was more to that question, actually. I know you're going to put more of a context to that question, but I think he's doing very well.
That was quite the hesitation. That silence lasted 20 minutes for me.
Roy, I don't know what's happened with you lately, but recently, okay, even when I'm starting a sentence with Roy. and then there's a sentence, your genuine surprise that I'm going to you leaves you in a position where it seems like- You said my name, Dan. You have no idea what to say. And it's the opposite of what the job is when I start a sentence with Roy XYZ. No. All you have to do is be ready for whatever that moment is. And it's rarely, I don't do this with anybody else. I'm not going around Billy and then this, this, this. I'm just looking at Billy. With you, I'm going directly at you and you seem like you're not ready.
No, I knew you were going to me because you said my name, but I was expecting more to the question. And I was listening to the question like, there's nothing more to this.
Okay, I better answer this now. In fairness, like Roy probably didn't wake up thinking he was going to be doing employee reviews for his coworkers.
That is a good point by you. But the reason I'm bringing it up, the reason is Greg didn't even hear this. As the door closed to whatever Monday promises, the last thing that Chris Cody, leader, said into the room was, also, I'm starting the show with a sleep farting song. That's the last thing I heard from your son's leadership. He said he was scared the first six months doing this, but now he's eased into the role.
That's leadership. Thank you, Dad. No, it is, you know. I mean, sleep farting was brought up last week. He had immediately got a song. That's a beauty.
This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
There have been some bad days for your wife, huh?
Yes. Yes. Agreed. I've learned recently that I'm a sleep farter. I didn't know that because I'm a sleep farter.
he does a good job of eating for his blood type he loves cheese fries but he can't have them now he's got a good wife stuck in his dutch oven he's got them bad boys ripping all night
Sleep farting! Yeah, you sleep! Sleep farting!
What are the criteria for evaluating news breakers in sports?
We have to be more mature than this. No, we don't. We can't be funneling funds musically to that. That can't be what we're doing with the media money. I want to ask Greg Cody, because I'm thrilled that he's here. I'm always happy to see Greg Cody, lifelong friend, one of the longest friends I've had. Do not have many people like this in my life that have endured this long. he is a long-time journalist hanging on to the end of newspapers and the end of his long-time career one of the longest in the history of the market why are you laughing just you know the whole idea of me hanging on you know by my fingernails i'm over a ledge but i'm i'm clawing to uh... keep from falling uh... okay so tell me how i have it wrong because i want to have a media conversation with you as the media continues to change and ben writer is over here for cbs saying on the sides to compo is interested in the miami heat and watching the miami heat situation and over here you don't says on the saying on television come summertime kevin durant is leaving phoenix reporting is changing information is changing the way the people dissected who they give credibility to is changing
And I saw over the weekend that Mike Ryan broke the University of Miami basketball story. And I want to talk about changing media in your time, Greg, because there are very few information brokers out there whose information you feel like you can trust. I can name them, right? They're the handful of insiders where you're like, yeah, okay, I can believe that.
