Folks, I'm getting hungry, and you know my favorite part of any meal snack or game day
app?
That's right.
The goat, or should I say the greatest of all time, Frank's Red Hot, it's got the
perfect blend of flavor and heat that elevates all foods from wings to buffalo chicken dip
to even ice cream.
That's right.
I said ice cream.
And with a roster of flavors, from OG to sweet chili, you can put that **** on everything.
So make every dish the greatest and eat the goat.

Welcome to the big suite, presented by DraftKings.
Why are you listening to this show?
The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Levitard podcast.
I'm sorry, I'm not going to apologize for that.
In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging.
I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries, that
if they're just there, that hasn't happened to you guys.
I've done it.
And now, here's the marching man to nowhere, that face and the habitual liar.
This episode of the day, Levitard Show is presented by DraftKings, DraftKings, The Crown
Is Yours.
There's a coal mess cow and a petrol pass cow, it's all too much.
James Harden is making another mess, I want to get to that.
Roger Gidell spoke yesterday, the Rooney Rule needs a lot of help.
He does this annually, he gets in front of reporters and tries to give answers to things,
but it's a bad position for him to be in, because they've got a lot of stuff that's hard
to handle.
And obviously, the Rooney Rule, among other things, is a disaster.
It clearly doesn't work, he knows it doesn't work.
They've been trying to make it work for 20 years, and it's always the white people that
get hired by the white people, and it's better than it's been, but it's not because of the
Rooney Rule.
And if I were a black coach in that leg, I'd be insulted by the fact that they almost
always have to be reminded, hey, you know, you got to do this, right?
Yeah, you can go through, go through this pretend interview, because it's good for the
black candidates to have their names associated with your pretend interviews, but it's not
a real thing.
We know you're not going to, we know you're always going to hire the guy that you're
more comfortable with.
So I want to get to some Roger Gidell sound, but I was surprised by this with James Harden
last night.
I shouldn't have been, because it's James Harden, because he does it every two years.
I shouldn't have been, but I still was surprised by it.
You want to take people through the details of what a mess this is, because you guys just
got done saying.
The Clipper started the season awful.
They looked old.
We were talking about is OK, see, going to get another number one pick, because they're
going to be the worst team in the league.
And then the last, I don't know, three weeks, they've been playing the best basketball
in the sport, better than Detroit last night, they get smoked.
And it's because of this, they get smoked at home by Philadelphia.
And it's because James Harden is being James Harden again.
They're totally back in at the Clippers after such a miserable start to the season.
I think they'd won before last night, where they got killed by Philadelphia, predictably
so I think they'd won like 17 out of 20.
So there's still a couple of games under 500, but like they're back in the playoff picture
out west.
And then out of nowhere, or maybe not out of nowhere, James Harden was listed out last night
for personal reasons.
And the personal reason is he personally doesn't want to play for the Clippers anymore.
So he has essentially demanded a trade.
And it's very similar to the Jimmy Butler situation last year, where James Harden, it's
not where he wants to trade because the team isn't good.
No, the team's been playing great and they're going to be, or they were going to be a playoff
team.
It's because even though he's under contract right now making a lot of money and he's also
under contract next year making a lot of money, no, no, no, but what about in four years
from now?
Why won't you give me money for four years from now?
Oh, you're not going to do that.
I'm not playing here anymore, which was exactly what happened with Jimmy Butler last year.
And look, it's a part about the NBA player that has really turned me off over the last
few years.
He's under contract to play right now and next year and like play basketball, play basketball.
I'm kind of with you.
Harden's at the age where we stopped doing that.
There is a tipping point.
47.
You mentioned Jimmy Butler.
Jimmy Butler was right to look for that extra security because he was probably more
self-aware than we gave him credit for when it came to his body breaking down the minutes
the coaches that he's played for.
But yeah, Harden, when does it end?
We're at that point in your career where people are going to look back at his career and
be bewildered by how many teams he played for every two years.
He requests a trade.
Yeah.
Literally.
What is the market value for a James Harden?
Oh, I think you can get a lot for him.
Like a lot.
The time on Darius Garland is a great job, especially.
It has all started.
By the way, he hasn't been playing because he doesn't have a job.
Wait, Sam's low is, wait, I don't think there's a great market for James Harden in 37,
although there will be a market for him.
Well, what?
What category is this good market?
Like what does that mean?
Well, not Darius Garland.
Something better your friend.
I mean, that's, that's not right.
If he has nine toes.
No, his toe is hurt.
He heard his toe in the office.
Okay.
The Cleveland confusion to me, I keep expecting him and them to be better.
And they're not because he's not at least in part, but the thing I wanted to say about what Zaz is saying
I agree and most people listening to this would just say yeah
Play contract guy
But Jimmy Butler got his money like he did what he had to do in order to get
112 million dollars for two years 60 million dollars a year because he was at the end of the road and he used the only
Leverage that he had James Hartz and not gonna have any leverage at the end of this contract
This is the only time he has it and I'm sorry
He's a business man mercenary who's just there for the paycheck and I'm sorry
He urinates on your sports ideals and you want to believe in team. This is the only time
He's gonna have that leverage for the remainder of his career. This is the time if someone's gonna give him a contract
It would only be now. I feel like he's exercised the very leverage that you're
Outlining several times in his career in which he's earned a half a billion dollars. He's 36 years old more
I all right cool. I guess he's just remaining consistent throughout his career
But at what point does a superstar realize all right. I've had it pretty good. Let me let me try to win
Well, we're playing good ball over here. Let me see this contract through well and Dan
Like when you say he wants more. Yes, of course he wants more but it's like he's under contract for two more seasons like
What's the line?
Like he's
Just showed you he got the his money Jimmy Butler got his money and then got hurt got his last
112 million dollars. That's the line right and the part that I would push back on everything
You're saying make sense for the individual player it obviously worked out really well for Jimmy butler
But you can't possibly be
Confused why a fan like myself would hate this situation of course
Of course nobody supports this except James hard nobody supports this is kept except the player
Well guys you guys are doing a parallel thing between him and Jimmy Butler look up look higher
LeBron James has been doing this the same way right him and the Lakers are at odds right now
Why because they don't want to extend them they have two different time but it's our future play I mean not
Publicly sciatica you accused him of using the play you were the guy that made me believe that
That's actually true. Are you the bullshit? You convinced me. I did say that. I did say that
So if LeBron's doing it at the top and face of the league, why would James Harden do it?
That's the first time I've ever seen shame on says that isn't about him speaking poorly. It's not shame. It's just
Admission I got his ass. That's what it was. I got it
We're talking this way because you got us on your team the sports fan is always going to be entitled to tell the employee
Who wants leverage get back out there when's it about winning come on be about the team James Harden very clear
Lee has never been about the team James Harden very clearly is about the money James Harden very clearly is not about winning
James Harden is about James Harden
Sports has become the wild wild west
There's no sanctity left in the contract. There's no sanctity left in the scholarship
You know a quarterback goes from Duke to Miami because he wants to and a player in the NBA goes from one team to the other because he
Pouts his way it's the freedom all us employees would love to have
I'm not saying it isn't but it is it good for sports
It's certainly not good for fans that are losing players who they thought were undercon it hasn't been bad for the business of sports
Like you can lament it all you want, but the business of sports is doing fine in spite of this is this I guess him going to Cleveland
Weird fit him planning cleaver. Oh, I'd much rather have James Harden than Darius Garland
Sure, of course. I don't know if I could like get through to him, but you're 36
You're one of the few people that gets along with Kauai. You're playing good ball. You're in LA
Then we made it and made a half a billion in our career. Let's go. Let's you don't want to go to Cleveland
You don't want to do this. Come on. Let's just let's stick it out. Let's try to win here
Nope can someone get me the reckless speculation sounder. Whoa, we make that happen anybody
I'm to throw away all your holistic credibility and get reckless
Here is something we like to call reckless speculation
You're good
James Harden and the Clippers know that Kauai is going to be suspended for the aspiration stuff
It's why Kauai was snubbed from playing in the All-Star game
And James Harden despite them playing really good ball together and being boys with Kauai Leonard
Wants out and they're willing to go with the younger piece in Garland because
They're trying to clear their books and get off of everything that's about to happen
I like this there. I love this theory
But I got some questions to start with. I love this there. I love the theory too
I loved it more the first time I heard it when win horse offered it
The reaction within the league is been kind of universal between the executives and I've talked to
Which is Kauai Leonard doesn't make the team
So, okay, that happens players get snubbed Kauai's numbers are phenomenal
But the game is obviously add into it, don't
And the wonder is that he not make this team because the coaches didn't vote for him because of the
Accusations of the
improper
Contract that's not like he forgot the name of the company. That's a seed though
I mean, I think Jeremy took a next level. I'm yes-ending on win horse
Winhorse is giving me information and saying like hey
I think this might be because of aspiration and what I'm saying to you is
You got to connect the dots between that part of it and James Harden in the midst of the Clippers playing incredible basketball
All of a sudden saying
I want to not journalism
It's reckless speculation my first question though is
Okay, if that's why and I can ask the question of win tors as well, but he's not here. So I'm ask you
Where the coaches
Giving like a memo, you know, don't vote James are implied pressure implied pressure the league said nothing
But everyone felt it I mean that or
It was already
Decided that no matter what the vote was Kauai Lenner's over cook the books say say cook the books
I will recklessly speculate that Adam silver cook the books on the all-star game. How about that good for you?
That's the conclusion good for you. Please if the broadcasts go to the NBA continue to hire me

We're not gonna tell anyone to say you guys
Guys
Two gods here's your guy break codey with back in my day
Okay
adultery
This is the down Lebatard show with this two gods
Greg Cody of the Miami Herald has a back in my day
He also has a podcast I urge you to listen to the Greg Cody show feature in Greg Cody where he is in the middle of a giant countdown of his top 50 catch phrases of all time
Even though he's got only 21 good ones. So he's got 50 the greatest 50 ones of all time
Already a fifth done we're down to 40
Can you give me another one? Can you give me just so that the audience notice is how hard it was to get to 50 because you guys should have done
The top 21 catch phrases of all time. Can you give me some of the others?
We've never heard before because you're in the middle of the top 50
To tease this week's episode which has Zazzle on it by the way. Yeah, why don't you give the two we didn't reveal last week
I don't remember the one was scranton
No, that was a week before. Oh wow see Dan. There's so many good ones. Yeah, there's so much so many good ones
But my dad going the name of the name of the city's not a catch phrase. Yeah, it is when you said scranton
It is where's yeah, there goes another rubber tree plan. That's probably top 30. Yeah, that hadn't even
Made it yet, but you know, I'll give you one that I just did which is hey where the monkeys, baby
That's a good one. He's been doing my whole life
Do you know right now like what your top 10 is? No
Wait, that's not the one that I know. There's another layer to the next layer to that. Yeah, people say we're monkey
Hey, hey with a hey, hey, yeah, that's an alternate. I love it. That's an all hey, hey with a hey, hey
Yeah, I mention that because I do an anatomy of all these things, you know, I do a sort of a genealogy on how all of these things develop
Okay, but if you don't have the top 10 yet
You're not worried that you're going to get to top 10 and you're out of catchphrase
No, I think he wait a minute. You must know wait a minute
No, no, Zaz's frustration like about a week or two ago was true
He had started the list without completing it. You know what I mean?
It's hard to know what number 48 is if you haven't done the top 10
But now he I think he has at least now gotten all under control
All right, but can I can then we recap look? I don't think we're spoiling anything by sending people to the Greg Cody show featuring
Greg Cody and telling them that
You know here are the 10 that have been revealed so far. Can we get can we do this please?
We just do and we'll make it a top 10 here, but it'll be 50 through 40
Can we you can't do it off the top of your head? You're just going to say Chris. What are they?
I don't remember my catchphrases. I don't remember how we rank them
Where can I get them right now so that we can do these 10? Okay, but I every week before I reveal the the latest two
I do a recap of all of them till then. Yes, you can get that in the episode
But we can do that for this audience dad. Do you have the full list in front of you? No?
Dan wants to go from 50 to 40. I can't have it in front of me. Okay. Well, can you go get it? Please?
It's on my pot. You can play the podcast. I need it. Play a clip from the pot. Hey, hey
It's on my podcast somewhere in the air. Yeah, just play a clip from it. The other one from this week. Thank you from the other one from this week was
Ball in the Jack. Yeah, that's number 42
Ball in the Jack right which is anytime we are rushing somewhere
We're on the way to baseball practice. We're on the highway and it's like that. Are we like we're balling the jack
We're moving it baby the time you're moving quick. Well, that's a 1913 song or maybe it was 1916 and around that time
I think it was you might as well play the back in my day music while he explains this even though we have a back in my day more
Because later in the show because why wouldn't you start with this was back in
1916 and right around that time coincidentally real way workers real road workers would refer to ball in the jack
Because their nickname for a locomotive for a train was a jack
So ball in the jack meant the train was moving at a high rate of speed
You know, and then jack caroac in is on the road novel also referred to ball in the jack
In terms of highway travel, so I adopted that and I've said ball in the jack
Frequently not not on the air so much, but in my private life. I thought you were talking about playing jacks
No
Is this ball in the jack like ball in the jack or ball in the jack no ball in B.A. L.I. in apostrophe
Never put the G on there. It really changes the whole feel of it
You
Thank you, you're welcome
It's it it's an abbreviated back in my day ball in the jack jack
Can't wait for 39. Yeah, I can't either 40 comes first
Do you know what 40 is yet? Not yet
What are we doing Greg? Did you just laugh? Did you just laugh out loud at something Lewis?
Said in your ear. Yes. I couldn't help it. It was funny
Thanks Lewis
Gagging the goose
Of course
Choking the frog. I mean, there's a million of course half of them would sound dirty if we keep doing it
You think gagging the goose doesn't just that means what you laugh at it
Why'd you say them in the ham? I mean ball in the jack is nothing
You know that kind of thing
That's gonna be number one. No, you just gave away. No, it's gonna be in your top 10 my make the top 20
I'm gonna say that that there's no way that kind of thing isn't in the top 10 you don't have
10 better than that. Oh
Trainers for sale rent
Yes
What's that voice?
It's great question
No, it's a great. That's my inner monologue
That had no place right there
There was no reason for my inner monologue to be singing
Greg it's a great question for you to ask why that voice for future reference that voice is always my secret inner monologue
Use there incorrectly to sing a song. Okay. It was in my head
Your head
Greg are you ready to do back in my day since we're here. Yeah, I was born ready
Okay, because you're coughing and I might need to give you a minute here to get your
Things in order your you look a little red face. Do you look a little
Winded you okay
Big numbers for Greg Cody show this week. I was on it. Uh, we mentioned that already
I heard that the Zazlow and Greg Cody that had to be good because that's a big surprise
I could not have imagined that ever being a thing they asked me a year ago. Yeah, I was happy to have him
I'm glad he said yes, uh, and would have been awkward if I said no
We talk about your shit stirring between them. They kind of like unite together in your shit stirring
But says no
Says knows I'm not telling anybody anything that isn't true. Zaz tells a story on the podcast about a
OJ McDuffy Super Bowl party which is worth the price of admission that story alone is worth tuning in
That is how you tease something not ball in the jack
Okay, that is how you tease the podcast right there. Not crappy sayings in the 40s because you don't have 40 catch phrase
You'll find out won't you I won't yeah, well, I already have I already have found out you don't have 40 cuz
Bowling the jack just made an appearance and I've never heard you say it and I've known you my entire adult life
I've never heard you say that look the the catch phrase countdown
It is an amalgam of stuff that I say on your show stuff that I say on my show stuff that I say in my private life from the mic
Not not everything is something uttered
For public consumption some of it only Christopher and my family have heard you betrayed me on my engagement
Cuz everything is for public consumption
Yeah, but your engagement that that story I did did not produce a catch phrase unfortunately
That's not really interesting for the betrayal
Yeah, that's it blanket it might be on the countdown just the like the blanket
Blanket yeah, that's it. Yeah, that's a favor to mine. So since I'm doing the countdown
Chances are that we'll be on there. I'm worried about you because you're a little winded are you ready to do it back in my day
You're out of practice you don't have the stamina for these things that you use right Brian winded horse
Yeah, I'm ready
You
And now it is time to take a trip down memory lane
Here's your guy break Cody with back in my day
Reviews
This is a true story and you've all experienced something similar and constantly I dare say so I go to get a haircut at my local chain
Barber the other day and before I'm even home

Thank you for your visit. How was it your review matters it goes on share your experience on Google reviews here
Seriously, I just spent 23 bucks not counting tip for a 20-minute cut and now you want a personal endorsement
I haven't yet seen published a review. I sent which read my stylist appeared drunk and I left with an unwanted mohawk
No actual review I had done
If I had done one would have said I walked in waited a bit got the haircut
I asked for paid the amount due and left it was a typically unremarkable soulless commercial exchange
Just the kind of the kind I prepare
Reviews
Please back in my day once you close the deal nobody cared how you thought it went
There was no google reviews with which to brag or complain
You didn't like your haircut. You complained to your wife and waiter for it to grow in now
You can't buy a cup of coffee or a book of stamps without being asked to share your experience

They hound you like a landlord chasing past do rent everybody wants to review heck my neighbors happen to have a son in the hospital
The other day I asked how's the boy doing and he tells me and the next day I get an email from my neighbor
Asking how was my experience can I leave a review? So I did
Quote frank hesitated slightly before answering when I first asked making me feel a bit defensive as if I were
Prying I wrote on google reviews plus he borrows stuff. He doesn't return. He still has my whole
I tell you what places where I do business listen up and unless you hear otherwise from me directly
Assume my transaction was stultifiably mundane yet unremarkably satisfactory in its way if it was top tier great
I'm gonna tell you before I leave if it was abysmal and left me angry
You'll hear from my lures McGillicutty petafogger and shyster who trust reviews anyway other than my wife
Here's the dirty secret if she reads me a glowing review for car mines wood fired pizza
I assume Carmine himself wrote it under a suit in him
If it's a vicious review I assume it was written by his bitter arch rival up the street in zoos doha

But pedophagor is a worry word. It has nothing to do with pedophile. Oh, what is what is the word?
I've never heard that word pedophagor is is someone like a cheat or like like it
It would be a a synonym for for shester, you know, just some I don't I don't know the exact definition of him
But if you look it up, I think it's it has to do with somebody you wouldn't trust or something of that name and inferior legal practitioner
Especially one who deals with petty cases or employs dubious practices. So saw goodman essentially
Well, but that would be an unusual name to have in the middle of your
Fogger and shester that's the Joe and someone should come back and say this tested poorly
And why is McGillicuddy on the front end of that if it's McGillicuddy like did you but did you know that McGillicuddy
Was the head of the law firm that also has a shester and a pedophile because I didn't I thought McGillicuddy was straight
I thought your doctor McGillicuddy and your lawyer McGillicuddy and your liquor McGillicuddy
I thought all of those things is the fourth brother Dan. Yeah, he's in a different law firm
The McGillicuddy my doctor and McGillicuddy my attorney. They're different people but brothers
There's another thing that I wanted to ask you because you brought up reviews
I don't know when the movie review started, okay
I sort of associate the televised movie review with Siskel and Ebert
But they were writing for their newspapers before that
But when and how did people know that movies were good or not good before
The review like before the mouth word of mouth, but it would just be word of mouth, right?
So it would be kind of like that's not a great way
That's not a good old way to call your friend and be like hey, that's all great flick really. I saw that movie
It sucked
That's the whole point. That's what that's what I was talking about yesterday
You have these rotten tomatoes like everybody's got an opinion nobody's got a good one
Everybody's like oh, this is great. Oh, this sucked. It's always a battle. Yeah, I mean
Years and years ago
If there was a good movie in the theater
It would get more and more money each week now all the peak of the movie is the opening weekend
Yeah, and it's always downhill after that. I imagine that over super bowl week here and Fred Warner's gonna join us
We're gonna postpone Chris Maddog Russo until tomorrow as the Super Bowl week gets hyped up over Wednesday Thursday and Friday more than it does
The first couple of days
But Zack Low in the middle of this is going to be the trade deadline stuff
The James Harden stuff that's making an appearance. You're going to see this ratchet up and we'll see if big names get traded or not
But Zack Low is
Saying on the conversations he's had with every team that's interested in Yannis
Quote they're all a little bit skeptical that the bucks are going to move him now one front office person of one of those teams called this a side show
Saying this is just for show. They aren't going to trade him 80-20. They keep him
Is what I keep hearing so he's saying 80-20 was it win horse that was saying 51-49? Yep, so that's a big move
That for win horse now Zack Low says none of these people know anything
I don't believe these two people don't know anything. I do believe they're talking to people
I also believe they're consistently being lied to well
He said also that he's being told by the front office executives. They think 80-20 but he still thinks it's 50-50
So ultimately, I don't know where it stands is a 50-50 51-49 80-20 no matter what the where he'd have the best deal
It stands is they're all lying to him because no one would have any reason to tell Zack Low the truth there
Also, he said side show. What's it if it's a dog and pony show or is it a side show?
Well, tell me what a side show is because I know what a dog and pony show is I don't actually know what a side show is
Was there something near the circus?
Nearby was there a freak show? Where's a freak show falling here? It's a side show. A freak show is a side show
No, I think a freak show I think a freak show is showtime. I think a side show is I think it's not as not as big
There's all something going on. I think it's sort of the guesthouse behind the circus tent
I don't think that's where the big shows are. I think it's a it's a show on the side
I think I think the main show is the lion is jumping through a flaming hoop and the side show is the seal
Balancing something on his nose. Oh, that's a good one. You just took me from a circus to let me know I'm at a secret
No, he's right. He's right. There is a seal like on a drum. Yeah, he's holding up a ball with his nose and he's trying out
Yeah, but that's pretty impressive too. Yeah, it's just thank you
But that's that's also impressed. I don't think of that as a side show
I think you have to go outside the tent and then the side show is just somebody guessing your weight in a nearby carnival
Like the strongest man on earth. Yeah, but it's all just like the dumb both of the fake
Anyway, like it's amazing that a seal's got a ball on its nose and the lion's jumping through. Oh, I'd pay attention at seal
Yeah, I don't think these things would be together
I think the lion might eat the seal you got a problem on your hands that nobody no kid wants to see at the circuit right
Jeremy, can you get me some information though on the side show so that we can get a formal definition for what Zacklow is reporting
That this youngest thing might be 80-20 according to executives who are lying to him
But 50-50 according to him. I love who the guy hearing it doesn't believe it
He's being told a twa he's like, but I take that info and I'm telling you 50-50. I'm being lying
To get the information. It's so good. That's right. No, you would think he would know. No, no, no
But that's what no what's happening is he knows they're lying to him
They know they're lying to him
So he just takes the number and he moves it because it's a it's a
Tell you what they're telling me, but I want this known. I don't believe them
Yeah, why does the reporter just say I heard that they're talking to this team and they're talking to this team
But I don't believe so you know that he's talking to people there it is and in real life
A lion is never in the company of a seal. That's correct. That's why it doesn't work
So it would be fascinating to to see how the lion reacted to that it would eat the sea hungry
Okay, I think the lion would go what's that give me a hyena
Give me my usual
Oh look a hyena. That's not moving
A small show or stall at an exhibition fair or circus alt definition a minor or diverting incident or issue
Especially one that distracts attention from something more important
Right, so I know what it means the formal definition
I just don't know what the origins of it would physically look like if we were to attend a side show
I do think it's funny that the author of pride of a lion thinks that lions eat hyenas that that's how they that they're fed hyenas
My circus work well the the hyena is the arch enemy of the lion in the wild
They're arch enemies Roy just told me they don't eat hyenas. They they will kill them because they're kind of like they look at them as rivals
That's right the pride of a lion. He's the author of two books about a lion
I just think of lion king the packs of hyenas
Will attack a lion a lion one-on-one against a hi you know a lion will win every time
But if there's eight or ten hyenas attacking a lion again
Then you have against don't eat hyenas though and you the expert on lions here. I believe lions will eat hyenas
He the internet is saying that they they kill them because they're rivals
But they rarely eat them they eat the you know the zebras in the lower end. Okay rarely eat them rarely doesn't mean never
Okay, the lion eats the innards. That's a keen walk the lion will eat your internal intestines before you're even dead
So when the lion kills a hyena
By biting its neck it then goes right to the gut and starts eating the innards while the the hyena is still riding and paying a lot
Like a zebra is like fast food. It's like the good stuff. It's like oh, I love this. Oh, yeah for sure
Like hyena I'll eat that if that's all that's left exactly. I think that's exactly right
But don't say lions never eat hyenas because it's not true. Get McGill on the phone. He'll tell you don't say it
Put it on the pole, please
Our hyenas as a meal like quinoa
To lion truth a lion. Yes. Thank you. I was getting there. I'm just sort of stupified by where it is that we've ended up here
Fast food. Yeah a side show historically features human oddity exhibits or so-called freak shows
Preserved specimens real or fabricated live animal acts burlesque strip shows
Actually or ostensibly dangerous stunts sort of like Chris Cody swallowing a sword
bearded lady big time freak
You can't break
Come on sucker. Oh, no put it on the pole. Please is the bearded lady a big time freak
Maybe not yeah, we could probably that one. I'm gonna leave that one off explaining the show
Except me
Don't ask where the whole portion is later
Zaz how dare he
Right dare he what I think he got scared when you're scared of a joke
He was amused by himself and then he broke and he's just amused that he gets to be Zaz all the time and then I think that was a fear break
It was just terrible. No, I don't amateur
Bad hour for Zaz he got got by Tony early and also breaks Mike you got to get the note pet out
Big-time meeting after the show in which we bury Zaz for everything that just happened there
He was so amused by himself that he giggle snorted
It's not in somebody else's joke. That's bad enough like that's bad enough to break character on somebody else's joke
It's that he amused himself so much that he couldn't stay
In he dropped in the bearded lady, which was a great line and Tony has to follow up like oh you really beard
And then that's where he got caught up like do I want to go down this path again those
It's better as just a throwaway line joke then like let's let's stay here. I don't really talk about it
I was just close to saying it like 10 minutes ago by the way. I just didn't want to be the one to say it
Zack Lo is
Unquestionably
Exceptional at what he does
His information is good
But everything we just did there
Indicates to you how silly some of this stuff is between
80 20
51 49 and no one actually knows whether Yannis is going to be traded until Shams reports it
And he's the only one who's going to report it like it's not going to break in Milwaukee
It's not going to break someone else and now that's the reason that I don't know
How
How it is that Woj and Shams do their jobs? Why is Zaz in the control room
How when I was trying to penalize him by putting him in the penalty box?
How is it that he ended up in the control room
And looking a bit like ikabod crane right now in terms of his facial features
I understand. I'm making an incredibly old reference
reference to our reference
I got it Dan headless horseman keep moving
Ikabod crane he looks
Please find for me

I'm always making fun of Cody for how all these references are
He's
Mike you know I have one rule to live by right don't place parlay's on multiple long shots
Don't say a game is one when it hasn't hit triple zero
Always drink your yager master ice cold that's the rule everything else is merely a suggestion
Everything else everything else wearing clean underwear every day
