18 Sep 2025

Transcription

Chapter 1: What are Chris Wittyngham's top four Ray Hudson calls?

2.663 - 16.918 Stugotz

Welcome to the Big Suey, presented by DraftKings. Why are you listening to this show? The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Lebitard podcast. I'm sorry, I'm not going to apologize for that. In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging.

17.058 - 23.444 Mike Ryan

I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries if they're just there.

23.664 - 31.152 Stugotz

That hasn't happened to you guys? I've done it. And now, here's the marching man to nowhere, fat face, and the habitual liar.

This episode of the Dan Lebitard Show is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours.

37.797 - 59.085 Mike Ryan

We should point out that Jimmy Kimmel has not been fired. Jimmy Kimmel has been a very good employee for ABC, does a lot of other things other than just his show. And when Mike Ryan suggested there that the Internet is saying it would be great if Kimmel appeared on Colbert. Yeah. And Kimmel would immediately not have a job again if he did that.

59.125 - 67.095 Chris Whittingham

I would imagine I would imagine I would imagine that if if given the circumstances, because like he showed up on the Colbert show, like supporting Stephen Colbert when that all came down.

67.075 - 87.598 Mike Ryan

Yes, but in this particular instance, because ABC is trying to protect affiliates, protect money, protect against the complaints that are coming from local shows that tend to control what happens in late night. If Jimmy Kimmel were to embarrass...

87.578 - 102.584 Mike Ryan

embarrass Disney, Iger, by doing that on something other than his platform when he might still be welcome back to his platform, he will be exacerbating things for them. He will not be a good employee. He will not be behaving like a good employee for ABC.

102.604 - 122.427 Chris Whittingham

I guess it depends on what he does. He can come out as a psych gag, which often they do when... Things are hot around these talk show hosts, and they often don't even say things. They're just there for support. I do want to turn people's attention to a statement that Jimmy Kimmel did make in the wake of Charlie Kirk. I know a lot of people are projecting what they think he said there.

Chapter 2: Why does Witty believe Tua Tagovailoa's performance has declined?

198.734 - 225.74 Mike Ryan

When they talked about the idea of propaganda as media and where it is that the government starts throwing optical illusions in your face to pretend like you're getting truth and freedom when actually we all know that that's a spectacular amount of bullshit. Chris Whittingham is going to join us. here in a little bit, and we're going to celebrate Ray Hudson with him. And he's had some bad takes.

0

225.76 - 232.656 Mike Ryan

He's anti-Panthers, and then they win the championships. He's anti-Mario Cristobal. He was out on Mario Cristobal after two games.

0

232.676 - 237.668 Unknown

I don't understand. He has an opinion on something, and then he can't admit that he was wrong? No.

0

238.643 - 249.238 Mike Ryan

Weird for him. Weird for media in general. Weird for all of us, I would say. I would say media members in general are stubborn about admitting when they're wrong. Greg Cody's position... Not all of us.

0

249.979 - 255.146 Chris Whittingham

Some of us pride themselves on being able to admit when they're wrong. It's quite liberating.

255.566 - 269.636 Unknown

I mean, I don't know if you remember, I dubbed Paul Morty's the murderer of fun. I've never had more fun than these last two years of Paul Maurice as my favorite team's head coach. I love him now. I was dead wrong. Why can't we admit that our opinion was wrong?

269.756 - 283.551 Chris Whittingham

I am curious to hear Witte's thoughts on Mario Cristobal and the Miami Hurricanes because his whole thing when Mario first took over was, this caveman offense, it isn't fun. And then in year three, Mario Cristobal provided Hurricanes fans with

283.531 - 291.46 Chris Whittingham

Only the greatest offense in the history of the program, and it seems as though the offense is pretty fun to watch right now, so I'm very curious to see where he stands.

292.16 - 312.863 Mike Ryan

We've got a lot to get to with Witte. The Champions League is back on Paramount+. He's calling the game today at 3 p.m., so he's very busy, but we have some imaging here to celebrate the Ray Hudson goal calls, and I want to get from Witte, top five South Florida broadcasters of all time, because I'm maintaining there has been no broadcaster that has resonated more ever

Chapter 3: What are the implications of Jimmy Kimmel's recent statements?

312.843 - 331.797 Mike Ryan

from south florida around south florida than ray hudson but let's get the imaging for that please ray hudson ray hudson ray hudson ray hudson

346.255 - 464.03 Ray Hudson

Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. This is what Dan wanted. This is what Dan wanted. He wanted a call of the day. He wanted, wanted, wanted Ray Hudson call of the day. What? Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. Ray Hudson. Redheadsy. Redheadsy. Redheadsy. Maybe the government should control the media.

466.613 - 472.959 Mike Ryan

Can we play the Ray Hudson call of the day in honor of Ray Hudson? We're going to do this every day until the World Cup.

472.979 - 484.87 Chris Whittingham

There by Reinders. Who is Harry? Leal. Warning off. Hey there, Militao. Oh, come back. It's Reinders! Massive chance now for Milan to win at the Pendebeu.

0

484.85 - 517.717 Unknown

look at where this beautiful goal is constructed from the hands of Mike Magnan and they absolutely embroider the passing going forward it's Gatling gun and then it's Liao's magic again wonderful consideration makes all the right decisions always smiling and Real Madrid now crying it's a fabulous ball by Reynas but the set up all the way down the pitch from Milan is just magisterial.

517.817 - 531.192 Mike Ryan

Witty, you have called games with Ray Hudson plural. They have been the awe of your lifetime by your own description. Tell us what it is that you felt when he said he was stepping away.

531.543 - 553.52 Chris Whittingham

Yeah, I actually knew probably that it was coming. We had talked about it a fair bit throughout last season. It actually allowed me to cherish it probably even more, especially as we went into that semifinal between Barcelona and Inter, because I felt honestly that this was probably it for him. And that was like a real... honor for me as a broadcaster to be like, all right, I'm with this guy.

553.72 - 573.548 Chris Whittingham

He's still throwing 101 on the black. He's still absolutely brilliant in terms of what he does from a broadcasting standpoint, the energy that he brings. And also he never got jaded. He cared every bit about the game and honoring the game all the way until the very end. So I kind of knew that it was it. And I was kind of hoping all summer

573.528 - 592.526 Chris Whittingham

from May when the Champions League ended until now that he would change his mind and want to go again. But I think he kind of knew that it was going to be the end. And we had kind of said it after that crazy semifinal. And yeah, I mean, for me, I got to do it for a year and a half regularly on the Champions League. We worked here and there at Inter Miami and on Be In Sports.

Chapter 4: How does Witty feel about admitting when he's wrong?

659.995 - 672.742 Chris Cody

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 a Lely Mays 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?

Chapter 5: What are the expectations for Mario Cristobal and the Miami Hurricanes?

973.953 - 978.419 Billy

I'm planting a tree in an undisclosed location, in case you're wondering what's going on here today.

0

978.439 - 982.679 Mike Ryan

Billy, did you approve this with your HOA? It's an undisclosed location.

0

982.699 - 999.463 Billy

Well, it's an undisclosed location, so as long as no one tells them where I am, we're good. Also, this witty coming on here, I knew he was going to retire. How about you tell people, bud? Aren't you a journalist? Aren't you a professional snitch, as Zaza likes to call you guys? Professional snitch?

0

999.483 - 1005.852 Chris Whittingham

No, I wouldn't call myself a journalist, though, really. I'm more of a broadcaster type.

0

1006.473 - 1021.495 Mike Ryan

What are your thoughts on Tua, Witty? I want to get to your flammably bad opinions that you refuse to retract. But the game tonight and Tua in general, your thoughts are what there?

1021.475 - 1042.572 Chris Whittingham

game tonight is there any I mean the the Dolphins are 12 and a half point underdogs and that's underselling it in my view is there any chance they don't get absolutely destroyed tonight I feel like I have walked myself into the trap of trying to get excited of trying to talk myself into oh maybe this is the time that the primetime game isn't an unmitigated disaster and yet it happens every

1042.552 - 1061.235 Chris Whittingham

single time. I'm waiting for ACL injuries to happen. I'm waiting for Achilles injuries to happen. I'm waiting for things that calamitously destroy the Miami Dolphins season because that's what happens every single time they play in a primetime night game. And for me, the thing about Tua is, I mean, beyond the fact that it seems as though the league has figured him out,

1061.215 - 1085.012 Chris Whittingham

The thing that's so immensely frustrating is you watch that Monday night football game, you watch Baker Mayfield somehow escape on 4th and 10, run for 17 yards, get a first down, and somehow that is not available to the Miami Dolphins. It appears to be available to all of the other 31 teams in the National Football League. It is not available to Tuatunga-Vailoa to be able to do that.

1084.992 - 1097.528 Chris Whittingham

And I think now in modern times, it's so difficult to be able to generate offense, to be able to generate anything without having that threat. And I think that more than anything is limiting to at this time.

Chapter 6: How does Witty describe his experience working with Ray Hudson?

1875.175 - 1893.264 Chris Whittingham

I had a game last year in Serie A where I had to power. It was about 15 minutes in where my voice kind of settled in and I was able to get through it. But yeah, I was definitely for Fowler the other night on Monday Night Football. That is definitely the thing that I wake up in a cold sweat thinking about. having to grind through three hours.

0

1893.324 - 1915.376 Chris Whittingham

And especially because everyone's going to be going, oh, this guy sounds terrible. How bad? What happened? Is he OK? Is he dying? And that, for me, is the absolute worst thing that can happen. It's why, honestly, if someone wanted to come up to me right now and chop my arm off, I would prefer that to getting a common cold. Being run over by a bus is worse for me than sniffles.

0

1915.396 - 1916.297 Mike Ryan

Billy's holding him a Sheddy.

0

1916.477 - 1919.282 Chris Whittingham

Yeah, Billy's ready. Careful with that thing.

0

1919.302 - 1924.47 Mike Ryan

Jesus. That is not reasonable, Witty. Take that back, Witty. That's an asinine thing to say.

1924.951 - 1931.122 Chris Whittingham

If someone came up to me right now and chopped my arm off, I could still call Man City Napoli at 3 p.m. on her. Probably not.

1931.142 - 1931.823 Stugotz

I would be fine.

1931.983 - 1932.805 Chris Whittingham

You don't think so?

1933.085 - 1933.946 Ray Hudson

Rub some dirt on it.
