Chapter 1: What handshake styles are preferred among sports broadcasters?
Why were you guys talking about who you think has the best handshake in broadcasting? How did this conversation come up?
I was complaining about Ian Eagle and Charles Davis being split up, even though J.J. Watt, good reports coming from his first couple weeks there, so I'm going to give that a pass. I haven't heard it yet, but I was complaining about that group being split up. And then it just, Charles Davis seems like a stand-up guy, seems like he has a great handshake. So that's where it started.
And then it turned into other broadcasters with good handshakes.
Someone said Louis Riddick. I don't really see that one. And that's where we are. Charles Davis seems like the kind of guy that will give you a handshake and say, how the hell are you? Exactly.
Put it on the poll, please, Juju, at Levitard Show. Charles Davis seems like the kind of guy who would give you a handshake and say enthusiastically, how the hell are you? I would like to understand what you guys are doing here, though, because I don't know that I can assess firm handshake based on appearance. You feel like you can do that?

Chapter 2: Why is Charles Davis considered to have a great handshake?
Yeah, and then Troy Aikman was thrown out there, but then Jeremy pointed out, he's a look-at-me-Louis handshake guy. Like, he's going to go overly hard. Too much.
Where you're just like, all right, you're trying too hard here. I think he'd surprise you with that. Like, you'd give him a handshake.
Chapter 3: Which other broadcasters are recognized for their handshakes?
He brings you in for a little. Maybe like finger snap and pull you in a little bit.
Well, so you're assuming that someone, so in this category, the way you guys are doing this, Trevor Madditch, you're making all the big guys, all the thick guys have, you're saying that I've had some of the limpest handshakes I've ever had.
Have you seen?
Aikman with his shirt off well no Aikman's a different character when you said Aikman you made me rethink my position because Aikman is country thick and you went a category outside of the one you were doing which is it was strong black men for a while for what it is that I heard like well I mean there are those photos of Troy Aikman looking like Jay-Z Louis Riddick was nominated
Who else would you nominate here? Billy, did you have any thoughts on this? A person that you can size up on their appearance and be like, yeah, that person clearly has a good handshake. I don't know what you guys are doing. Does Brad Williams have a good handshake? What are you guys doing?
Whoa, whoa. Where'd you bring this? What does that mean? It's a weird pool? Yeah. You know who I bet had a firm but comforting handshake? Vin Scully. I bet that was a perfect handshake. Just exactly firm enough to where he was saying, hey, how are you? But without overdoing it, like Troy Aikman. I think you mentioned the Brad Williams thing, having shaked his hand on several occasions.
It is like the bro hug when he's set up. It works out the quads.
What Jeremy is saying there, what are you smiling about, Roy? It works out the quads.
I mean, it's one of those handshakes that you have to work out in your head before. Like, I can't do eight in a minute. Get those squats in, man.

Chapter 4: How do handshakes relate to personality in broadcasting?
We've established you have no idea what we're doing. Hey, Jeremy, happy holidays. Happy Chinooka. I want to toast you. Actually, I don't. I will toast with you. Okay. We're co-workers. Friends, you could say. No, we cannot say that. But we both enjoy an ice-cold Miller Lite. That's true. Especially around the holidays. You know, it's the 50th anniversary of Miller Lite. It's really amazing.
Every time we say that, I can't believe it. Well, it's crazy because they've basically been partners with the Dan Levitard Show for half of their existence. What? When I put it to you that way, we got an old-ass show. Yeah, we do. That's crazy. Hey, let's look around at our friends, not each other, and our family, even though they're not here. I do miss your brother, though. Yeah, I know.
I'll bring him back. And take that first sip. Look around and know that we made the right decision. When it comes to a domestic light lager, Miller Lite is the best. And it's the holiday season, as we mentioned.

Whether on the ground or through the air, When the chips are down and you throw a prayer. When your team is primed and on the hunt. It's fourth and ten, you refuse to punt. When the shoulder pads and helmets crack, that's how you know that football is back, Jack. Let me hear you say football, football.
This high is wild and out of control And we're gonna ride it every week Till we reach the Super Bowl Don't need no checkdowns Give me big hits and quarterbacks If you say this game's the best I'll say it's a gag Football is back Jack!
I'll let people see just behind the scenes a little bit here because there are several things about Chris Cody that are very red. One of them is how red he turns during that open when he sees how close we are as a media company to televising his culo. We are very close. His legs are flapping around and the shorts are open and we are seeing undergarments and skin.
And every time, Chris, are you fearing that we are going to see the entirety of the hole of your butt?
Thank God for Boxer Breeze. They do a lot there to protect me. There is that brief moment where you kind of see it. Little puckered up red starfish. We don't need to do that. I see the video team trying to find it.
We don't need to do detective work on this. Well, we do, though, because I don't believe that this is something that other media entities, they're willing to go this close to the edge.
All right, we got it, guys.
Look how happy you look there. You look so happy. Back to Dan.

Chapter 7: What insights does the crew share about the Cleveland Browns' quarterback situation?
I'm a good son.
Pablo Torre is going to join us here in 40 minutes. Everywhere he goes these days, he's just spilling information that no one else has. So you're going to want to be here for that, I would assume.
Chapter 8: What role does a firm handshake play in sports culture?
He's doing better journalistic work in sports than anybody is. And Jeremy said before we started here. Jeremy nominated Vin Scully for someone he assumes has a firm handshake. And the reason that I don't know what we're doing here is I don't assume that old people ever have a firm handshake. None of them. I don't. I'm never going in. Maybe Jeff Conine's dad.
Jeff Conine's dad one time took me off guard because he's like a champion racquetball player. And as soon as he shook my hand, my elbow hurt. He had unbelievably strong hands.
When Niner came in studio, we knew this reputation around the Conine family and the racquetball thing and whatnot. And we'd heard the legends of Jeff Conine's handshake. So we all got on the same page. We're going to give it to him. Mike did it. I'm proud to report. I gave to him. I won that. No. Yeah, I won that.
If you mentally prepare, like this guy's going to try to rip your hand off in this handshake, you go in prepared, and I definitely dominated the handshake.
Okay, so he underestimated you is what happened. The reason I said no the way that I did is because he prides himself on his handshake. And I'd never seen my brother. My brother liked to wander around and have these fights. He used to do it with your dad, Chris, where he'd have these ā Because your dad has a good strong hand. Your dad has a firm handshake.
But my brother only lost one time in his life in a handshake off where he's going in to try and hurt someone's hand and they're going in trying to hurt his. Like that's where the starting point was. My brother was undefeated because he defeated your dad, Chris. He was undefeated until he met Jeff Conine. And so that was my surprise when you said you beat him at the handshake.
But you were prepared and he wasn't. I had the keys to the game.
Jeff Conine could not have wanted to be here any less than he wanted to be here the day he was here. It felt that way. I've never seen anyone be more miserable than Jeff Conine was the day that he was here. He's pretty dry, and it was hard to get a read on it, and we were told that, well, no, he really enjoyed it. Could have fooled us.
Let's call Jeff Conine now, please, and let's find out about the handshake. That'll go well. I'm going to give you his telephone number.
