The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

"I got six legs for ya. AYE. YOOOOOO." JuJu is feeling good off another win for Thursday Thunder and takes a big swing, before weighing in on the Jarrett Allen no-call from last night, handing out some show awards, and recapping the polls.

"Yeah, hold on, I'm moving the horse fart." Ron Magill is fresh into his retirement and back on our airwaves, discussing everything from horse farts to Greg Cote's stomach sounds to sloth bears, and even Dan helping ducks cross the street. He also tells us about his campaign to have the flamingo rightfully established as the state bird of Florida. Plus, the Edmonton Oilers have fired head coach Chris Knoblauch, Ari Shaffir is this week's guest on South Beach Sessions, Daniil Medvedev is over it, and Zaslow has a hard time telling White Tamara how much money he spends on wrestling.

"You're gonna go into battle against Nathan MacKinnon with Aho?" The gang dives into the reasons why James Harden, despite being an all-time great, is viewed so negatively by NBA fans. Is he the poster child for the NBA changing in a way that many people have not liked? What have we ever heard James Harden say other than Daryl Morey is a liar? Off of maybe the strangest livestream we've ever done last night, Mike tells us why this is the earliest in the playoffs he's known who will win the title in both the NBA and the NHL.

"Save yourself the time, Dan. Just be a narcissist." Jorge Sedano has worn a robe many times in his life and joins us from Los Angeles to further the discussion on LeBron James and the reports that he feels underappreciated by the Los Angeles Lakers. Then, David Samson (also in a robe and with a chest like a dolphin) jumps in and tells us why he believes there isn't more funny in sports broadcasting, why Inside The NBA will continue even when Charles Barkley is gone, and what Stephen Ross is trying to get out of claiming Miami is unfit to host a Super Bowl. He also claims that one day we will get on planes without pilots. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"He's not a Miami Heat guy, he's THE Miami Heat guy." Jonathan Zaslow continues to shock us with things he has never done, this time claiming to have never worn a robe in his life. What an interesting guy that Zaslow is. De'Von Achane has signed a four-year extension with the Miami Dolphins, and the crew debates what the contract says about his fit in Miami's plans. Tony is tired of Dwyane Wade telling Heat fans to be patient, Jeremy is wearing really high socks with Charles Johnson, and Messi may have scored a hat trick, but we are not really sure.

For decades, Ari Shaffir has brought the best stories in comedy to light. Coming from a deeply religious upbringing, Ari's wild and raunchy path in comedy seems about as far away from seminary as anyone can get. Ari speaks to Dan about his time in the industry and the liberation that comedy provided him after leaving his orthodox Jewish upbringing. Ari talks about what inspired him to bring the best voices in comedy together, to tell their real stories that they couldn't tell anywhere else. He also details his process making his stand-up special “Jew,” traveling the world honing his material (and realizing that, even after years of religious study, he got some details about the Torah wrong). And, of course, it wouldn't be a conversation with Ari Shaffir if he and Dan didn't take a little dive into the world of psychedelics. Ari's special, “Jew,” is available now on Netflix and watch his hilarious live storytelling show, “The End”, from YMH Studios.

"If the New York Times can prance their ass out there and claim it, damn it, we can." Dan does not feel like our chip discussion from the last hour has been resolved, so JuJu tries to bring some clarity with his list of the best chips ever. He also rightfully claims to be a Pulitzer Prize and Academy Award winner before giving us his Joker of the Day, a Stat of the Day, and a recap of a great day of polls.

"Jessica, do you have any incidents recently where you have gotten your fat on?" Dan has received an apology from someone he claims not to know, but the show is rather suspicious that he doesn't have Trysta's number saved. Who in Dan's life is most likely to use the word 'fumbly'? After UCF's commencement speaker was booed for discussing AI, the show delves into the fears that come with using it more and more each day. Jess also weighs in on Steve Sarkisian and Lane Kiffin's recent features in USA Today and Vanity Fair, and Dan wants to know which are the four best snacks of all time. Are pretzels cheese balls?

"Houston, we have a problem." JuJu and Trysta are here to talk some NBA Playoffs, and Trysta makes two shocking revelations: she hates Victor Wembanyama, and she thinks Daryl Morey gets a bad rap because he is ugly. Does the guy that slaps you on the back and says 'hey babe, I'm gonna hit the head' give off fun guy? Plus, Dan continues not to understand why so few people in the company seem to care that Pablo Torre Finds Out won a Pulitzer Prize, and Greg Cote struggles to pick out a line from his favorite movie of all time. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"It's been a minute since I read The Bible." The crew was left dumbfounded by the storytelling on last night's game between the Minnesota Timberwolves and San Antonio Spurs, with Victor Wembanyama portrayed as a conquering hero after not being suspended for what Dan called 'one of the dirtiest plays in playoff history.' Does anybody root for Goliath? If the rock hits him in the chest, do you think Goliath is going down? Did you know Rutgers offers underwater basketweaving? Does Daniel Day-Lewis need to pick a name?

"I'm not a movie goer, I'm not a movie knower." Greg Cote knows nothing about movies, but he does assume that anybody riding a bicycle has been racking up DUIs. Does that mean Dan has been racking up the dooeys because he was riding a bike around recently? Do you have less respect for the guy in a suit if he's riding a scooter? Plus, the gang is very concerned for Warren Sapp after his recent appearance on the local news. Today's Cast: Dan, Greg, Chris, Roy, Tony, Zaslow Learn more about your ad choices.

In the season premiere, Dan, Amin, and Izzy go back to the Sports Illustrated cover that turned a teenager into an industry, re-reading the prophecy with the very people who helped craft it. Plus: a resplendent Sonny Vaccaro joins us to re-live his failed $100 million offer to bring The Kid from Akron to Adidas. All that AND real talk about LeBron's untold origin story.

"That's 15 yards in the NFL." Congratulations to Donovan Mitchell, who has taken Jimmy Butler's spot in the 'is this guy good enough to be your best player on a championship team?' debate. The gang weighs in on that, before JuJu tells us his Joker of the day that leaves Greg Cote shocked and dismayed. Plus, it was a loaded day for polls, and there are some massive results to share.

"Dan, you don't fart? Your breath must stink." Lane Kiffin is the subject of a new Vanity Fair article in which he claims he needed Oxford more than Oxford needed him. Do we believe him? Is that even true? Then, the best-dressed man on TV and Mike Ryan Ruiz group chat world member, Adam Lefkoe, joins the show ahead of the French Open to discuss how he became a tennis guy, why Chris Simms is his nemesis in sports media, how Greg Cote can win a Pulitzer Prize, and how the New York Knicks embarrassed his Philadelphia 76ers. Plus, is the famous parrot, Woody the Woodpecker, on the Mount Rushmore of red-headed athletes? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"You're not man enough to know the truth." Nobody knows more about Disney World than the Lopez twins, but nobody knows less about Al Pacino movies than Greg Cote. Amin said yesterday that Anthony Edwards and Victor Wembanyama will be the next Magic-Bird rivalry, but Tony thinks it may actually be Wemby and Chet Holmgren. Can anyone in the NBA actually hit Wemby in the face with an elbow? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"If you loved America, you would have never returned a guy who tried to steal an election back to power." Sandwiched between #24 and #25 on Greg Cote's catchphrase list and the fart of the year, Luke Thomas of Morning Kombat joins us to discuss the state of the UFC's relationship with Donald Trump, Dana White claiming not to be a yes man for Donald Trump, and why the White House event will be a stain that White and the UFC may never shake.

"DRIVER COMFORT IS PARAMOUNT!" I could tell you about how we talked about the Oklahoma City Thunder being the first-ever sneaky dynasty, or how Stephen Ross is lying about Miami not being fit to host a Super Bowl, or even Zaslow going to Santa Fe Community College and still rooting for UM. We all know why you're here, though: there is a massive update to Greg Cote's Catchphrase Countdown, and it is the only thing that matters on today's show. Today's Cast: Dan, Zaslow, Greg, Chris, Roy, Tony, Mike Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"He has a sense of what humor is supposed to be." We revisit a couple of things Dan missed last week, including the shocking details Chris Cote revealed to his father and the Zaslow men's inability to have female children. JuJu joins us to provide his Top 4 Athletes That Should Try Comedy and has some ideas to fix the NBA. Should fans be allowed to enter the transfer portal? Also, Sean Strickland remains the worst.

"Dan did you hear the part today where Tony said in five years from now there are going to be no humans driving." Zaslow stopped listening to the show after Tony said in five years from now there are going to be no humans driving, so he missed Amin's weekend observations where he revisits Skip Bayless' virtuoso performance from last week and Sedano wearing a bath robe. Amin also proposes that Victor Wembanyama against Anthony Edwards could the modern day Magic Johnson-Larry Bird rivalry. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"I knew there was a plant involved." Did Draymond Green cost himself the Inside the NBA job after his appearance this past week turned heated? Is anybody in sports broadcasting actually funny? Is seeing Louis CK on a billboard in LA really that surprising? How much did Dan's turkey sandwich at LAX cost? Are the Carolina Hurricanes really going to get away with this? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"So far, the only punishment from any of the categories you mentioned was the Clippers getting the 5th pick." Dan missed reacting to Meadowlark Media winning a Pulitzer Prize, so he shares his disbelief that Pablo Torre's Kawhi Leonard story was honored among the other award-winning reporting. Then we recap this weekend's action in the NBA playoffs, including the New York Knicks sweeping the Philadelphia 76ers, James Harden saving the Cleveland Cavaliers' season against the Detroit Pistons, and Victor Wembanyama throwing an elbow at Naz Reid's face. Is there more than a 0.0% chance he will be suspended for even one more second? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"You come this close to having the best day of your life, and then you have the worst day of your life." Our Cyclones lost the Jai-Alai championship in the most heartbreaking way possible, and Mike and Chris still have not recovered. The good news is Dan is back from LA to make them feel better by pointing out the other team could have been at the bar watching the Clones lose. Dan also wants to know whether the Miami Heat need a new good-luck charm at the NBA Draft Lottery after they failed to move up again. Plus, Miami Marlins' reliever Pete Fairbanks tells us what being dry humped is like. Today's Cast: Dan, Zaslow, Chris, Roy, Tony, Mike Learn more about your ad choices.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have missed the Playoffs twice in the last 10 years and have won the Draft Lottery both times. Roy, David, Ethan, and Rose discuss whether that's just a little too fishy or just pure chance. Winning the Draft Lottery may have been the only thing that could save the Leafs from the PR disaster surrounding their new GM hire, which the crew picks apart. Plus, the Tampa Bay Lightning are out of the playoffs, and we are ready to laugh. This week's guest is ESPN legend Steve Levy, who joins the gang to discuss the Maple Leafs further, share stories from the legendary playoff games he has called, and share his thoughts on the early rounds of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
