What is the story behind tequila?
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. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think you could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.
Cuervo.
Cuervo. This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
Who was Andy Milonakis and why was he popular?
So, like, seconds before we started the show, Hawk sat down and he says... Andy Milonakis. Does that name mean anything to any of you? Andy Milonakis. You guys remember Andy Milonakis? Anybody? Yeah. Andy Milonakis. I like him. No. Love him. So Andy Milonakis was a guy. You love him. I loved him when he was a thing. You got to think about the age, right? Like you were the exact age to think that Andy Milonakis was the coolest thing ever.
It was pretty cool, bro.
Andy Milonakis was like this. I think he had like the Gary Coleman. Syndrome or whatever.
He always looked young.
He always looked young. He wasn't young, but he looked like a 12-year-old boy and sounded like a 12-year-old boy. Here's a picture of him right there. He's 66. Exactly. Right now. So he was on MTV a lot and all these different shows, and they did prank shows and stuff like that with him where he would pretend to be like a kid lost at the mall, and then he would say some wild, reckless stuff.
What were some iconic ads from the early 2000s?
And so it transported me Back to another time, right? Like the early 2000s, where it feels like when you say 2000 whatever, you're like, oh yeah, that's closer to us now than like the before four time. But man, I was looking through this old magazine, it was about 25 years old, and I saw some ads in it that made me go, wow. Give it to me. All right, so there's a Snickers ad where the tagline is, getting burned by shorty, unfortunate side effect of hunger. And so what it was was like a dude dressed, supposed to be like and one, shorts, headbands, wristbands, everything right, baggy, and a little kid in a velour sweatsuit, a velour tearaway sweatsuit. Playing defense.
What magazine is this?
It was a Sports Illustrated from about 25 years ago. Getting burned by shorty, unfortunate side effect of hunger. Here's another one. It's a Viagra ad.
How did magazines play a role in our childhood?
Hold on, hold on, hold on. Before you just gloss over that one, I feel like we have to even also give context to And One. I don't feel like everyone knows what And One is. Okay, so Once Upon a Time. And also magazines. Okay, all right. And also, what the hell is a magazine, bruh?
Once Upon a Time. people, when they wanted to read something that was kind of current, but not too current, like a newspaper, but not too big picture, like a book, you bought something called a magazine. It had a lot of pictures. It was glossy. And it was filled with articles and ads.
Sometimes your grandpa would keep a stack of them under his bed. You weren't supposed to go under.
Different kind of magazines.
Under any circumstances. National Geographic. I bet Greg Cody's got a big stack of magazines. I think they were about rabbits or something. I don't know. Some rabbit magazine my grandpa used to have. My parents do have magazines in their bathroom. Right. Is it a rack? Yes, a little rack. A little rack, man. I don't know. I haven't been in their bathroom, honestly, at this point in probably 10 years, but they did at one point. After yesterday? Seems wise. Yeah. I don't understand that reference.
What was the impact of And One on streetball culture?
It's a lot of State of the Toilet Bowl talk. Oh, wow.
I missed a good one yesterday.
Damn. And One. One thing on And One. Yes. Were you a big And One guy? Of course.
Who wasn't?
Okay. I was so big in And One that we created our own And One mixtapes. Oh, no. I wasn't that big. We had our own nicknames. Mine was Grits and Hotcakes. Was the nickname.
A little long. It was a little long.
Yeah, and also like G and H didn't really ring either, so you couldn't shorten it. Grits and Hawk cakes?
That's a little on the nose. They should have just called you Grits.
