Why did you walk in here today asking how much skin weighs?
It's an interesting fact that I reveal on the Greg Cody Show podcast with Greg Cody. I have a three facts jack that I do every week, and I only do things that surprise me, that I didn't know, that I think people would be interested in. And it's a matter of fact that the human skin weighs about 20 pounds. In other words, if you were skinned alive...
the physicality of your shed skin would be the equivalent of two bowling balls. It's an incredible total. I always think of skin as almost featherweight.
Greg, do you mean to tell me if Dan were skinned alive?
It would be a little more than 20. Wait a minute. I mean, nothing is exact. You know, a thin person might be 18. Dan might be 26.
You think my skin weighs more than your skin?
Isn't it the fat surrounding the skin?

Chapter 3: What does the team expect from Barkov's recovery timeline?
Like, how did you arrive at if you were skinned alive and placed the skin on a scale, it would weigh 20 pounds? Put it on the poll, Juju, at Levitard Show. Did you know your skin weighs roughly 20 pounds?
Yeah, the origin of the three facts, Jack, it's proprietary information. But let's just say that I, you know, it came from great diligence and research.
It's the small intestine, by the way, that's the long one, not the large intestine.
Yes, exactly. I was thinking that, but I didn't want to correct it.
How gracious. How long is it? How long is the small intestine? Depends on what you're working with, Dan.
This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
Greg Cody is wearing his finest terrycloth shirt to celebrate a fun regular season Monday night in South Florida sports. Always fun when the Heat beat the Knicks. I think the interesting story from that game is what is Khalil Ware going to become, right? Because freakishly athletic. It's still strange to me to see someone that size be able to move that way. It's still not a normal thing for me.
I know it's normal throughout the league and it's human evolution, but still weird to see that three of the four all-stars didn't play for both teams. So it's not representative of anything except that you can't trust Carl Anthony Towns when he's the best player on the court because he needs to be better than he was at the beginning of the game. So we'll talk about Heat Knicks in a second.
But first, the Panthers scored eight goals last night. Now, I saw one game this season at Anaheim. Anaheim's pretty good this year. They're offensively very good.

Chapter 4: How does skin weight relate to human anatomy?
Another 1,000-point guy for the Panthers. I can't believe what's happening with the Panthers. None of this is still normal to me. To see them have the historic players, to see them have the celebratory nights where they get to go and interview the family because someone else is arriving at 1,000 points because their team is so deep. But both the local teams, the Heat and the Panthers,
are really deep. The Heat are doing what they're presently doing, just staying above 500, waiting for their All-Stars to get back with their bench. They're doing that with their depth, and the Panthers are doing the same thing. So, Roy, where are you on what the Panthers have done so far this season? Because they look pretty mediocre, but that's fine. You're fine with them looking mediocre.
They need to not be bad.
Well, they look mediocre because there are about six players who are injured right now. And that's what tends to happen. Including their two best ones. Yes, exactly. But Brad Marchand has registered a point in all but two games this season. So he's keeping them afloat.
I mean, no Barkov, no Kachuk. They're missing a defenseman in Kulikov as well. They're missing their fourth-line center. And Carter Vahegi's been a ghost so far this season. Like, you can't wait for Barkov. Who knows if he's going to be available at some point. Although, there was video footage last week. He was, like, working out at a public park. He had no brace on.
That made me feel good, Greg.
Yeah, but we'llā Let's not be doctors here and claim a miracle. Barkov is out for the season. I would be shocked if he came back early.
I don't think that you can say that given that this early he's able to have weight bearing on what was a bad injury. I don't think you can say he's out for the season. In fact, the talk around the team, Roy, you're around it more, but the talk around the team is they have the quiet expectation that he's going to get back before the playoffs, correct?
Bobby. Absolutely. Like, he's rehabbing without crutches now.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of the Panthers scoring eight goals?
All right. I mean, you guys may prove right. I'm just saying if I were a Panther fan, I would not expect Barkov.
So you don't you. I understand that you don't want us to be doctors. But when a month and a half into rehab, you're seeing somebody who on a bad injury is releasing video showing that he's in a park and he's putting weight on the leg. He's not. limping. He's not walking around gingerly. He's running through a workout.
I understand it's not, you know, it's not being on ice and it's certainly not playing in an NHL game, but if he's got three and a half months and is already weight bearing on the injury, I mean, I'm willing to make a prognosis that hockey players being totally insane.
that there's no circumstance under which the captain and best player and best two-way player in the sport isn't going to try to get back as fast as he can. So he's not starting with playoff action, Greg. You don't want your first games to be the playoff intensity. So I'm guessing that the goal is to get back and to test his body in a way that if he doesn't have a setback, he will.
What are you smiling about, Amin? I'm just saying, like,
Better get on board, I mean. You know, sometimes you want to pull back a little bit as to not arouse suspicions. A guy a month and a half after surgery is out here running. Doesn't sound odd to you guys? You're like, oh, this is great. This is amazing. He's a hockey player and stuff. I'm like, really? Yeah, it's a miracle. A miracle, all right. A miracle of modern science.
Wink, wink, if you catch my drift.
I don't know why your drift is here, or I don't think it's worthy of being caught.
No, the drift is needed. Greg caught it. I don't catch your drift at all.

Chapter 6: What challenges are the Miami Heat facing this season?
Listen, can I say one thing? I don't want to be the naysayer here. I hope he comes back soon. Barkov's my favorite player. March. March, you think? Are you allowed to have a favorite player? I can have a player I enjoy watching. He never gets enough credit. He's the most underrated superstar in the league.
I feel like the last couple years, he finally gets enough credit. But if I could add here, Greg, you may think that they announced that he's going to be out for the year. I don't believe that's true. If they actually... Like if they were certain he was gonna be out for the year, they would have made the arrangements where they can get, they can replace his salary in the salary cap.
And because they did not do that, they can only replace 30% of his salary. So that would tell you they're holding out hope he's going to be back. Otherwise they would have made the arrangements to get full salary cap relief.
All I'm saying is let's not oversell and put too much stock in a video of him not wearing a knee brace at Holiday Park. It doesn't really mean much to me. Now, you guys are reading a lot into it.
What about him telling Spolster that he was going to be back in five months? What about that?
Why would he be telling the basketball coach that he's going to be back in five months?
Well, he did. I don't know his internal motivations.
What is my dad doing right now?
I'll tell you what he's doing. He's asking questions while the rest of you guys are just eating at the trough.

Chapter 7: How does the team depth impact the Heat's performance?
Right. You think you're right, and then question both Barkoff and Spoh, even though you have no information. We have video, we have Spoh, we have Spoh quoting Barkoff, and we have you saying, I have no information, but I think everything I'm seeing and hearing is inaccurate.
I appreciate that Dr. Spolstra has advocated that Barkoff will be back sooner than others think. I hope he's right. I hope Barkoff plays tomorrow night. I don't even know if they're scheduled tomorrow night. He's questionable. I hope he comes back as soon as possible, if not sooner. But let's just, you know, pump the old brakes and not worry about that.
Let's worry about Kachuk coming back if he has time between his podcast and attending games.
Yeah, for real. What are these guys doing?

Chapter 8: What are the characteristics of a Wemby stopper?
You know? It was not fake. It was in no way fake.
You can spot a woman faking it.
Stugatz. Yes, I can, Jess. Expert. I've been married 40 years. This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz.
You know why? You know why, Greg? He's got time to do all that? Modern science. It's Tuesday. Do you have a back in my day?
No.
No, I don't. I got one. This is my Ed McMahon imitation, by the way.
That makes you Johnny, Dan. Did you retire back in my day and not tell anybody? Because it's been an extraordinarily long time since you did one.
It's been a minute, as the kids say.
It's been a lot of minutes. It's been many, many minutes.
