The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz - Hour 1: The Cahoots Crime Families

Episode Date: August 22, 2024

Jeremy has spent the majority of today's show piecing together a "Pepe Silvia" style yarn-tethered board of photos linking Dan, Roger Goodell, and a shadowy figured named "The Draft King" to a number ...of crime families connected to the Dan Leotard Show universe in order to figure out how exactly Dan was in cahoots with the NFL and Miami Dolphins. Then, Jeff Darlington is clearly angry with us, Mark Hamill's voiceover work, Travis Kelce in Happy Gilmore 2, and some limited fake Adam Sandler from Chris and Mike. Plus, a tribute to the end of Jackie Chan and his insane injuries, Robert Di Nero jumps out of a boat, and Greg Cote's 70th birthday surprise. Learn more about your ad choices.

Tony alleges, and this is fake news, that I snapped my fingers and things just happened around here. But I asked many hours ago for the origins of how it is that someone came for the first time to be in cahoots
Starting point is 00:01:09 with someone else and I continue to ask and want clarification because I do think it's funny if Stephen A Smith is on what he is calling the number one rated sports program in America for 13 years which is a bit of a cheap rhetorical trick by him, by the way, because half of those years they weren't even competing against anybody. And then Fox popped up with Skip Bayless. Well, and also I would say PTI outrated them for a long time there.
Starting point is 00:01:36 Well, but in that time slot, in that time slot they have beat all comers, but there were just recently, there was one comer and it was Skip Bayless and it was for six or seven years and then it was done. The way we use Kahoot, it derives from the French word Kahoot. And it means cabin or hut,
Starting point is 00:01:52 suggesting the notion of two or more being hidden away, working together in secret. Kahoot. What is the French word? Kahoot. So you think it- Well, we spell it C-A-H-O-O-T and the French spelling is C a H U T E
Starting point is 00:02:06 Kahoot as opposed to Kahoot We spell it with two a C a a no C a H O O T is how we spell it and they spell it H U T E but at ESPN they do spell with two a's So what is the accusation? Because I really do want to understand the accusation if Stephen Stephen A. Smith is going on the number one rated program and accusing me of being in cahoots on timing with two of the NFL and someone else, the Dolphins, please explain to me the details in this scheme.
Starting point is 00:02:39 Well, Dan, you asked that question. And you said you snap your fingers and nothing happens. But Dan, a lot of things happen. It's just they don't happen in front of your eyes. They happen behind the scenes. And so behind the scenes, Jeremy Tashay has been working exhaustively this deep investigation, and he comes to us now with his findings, I believe.
Starting point is 00:02:58 Jeremy, what have you got for us? Yeah, Dan and Amin, I mean, it's obvious that Dan was working in cahoots with the NFL, with the Miami Dolphins, to basically have a set up canned interview to be able to get this answer from Tua. But we've got a lot of connections going on here, and we start with sort of a big three. Obviously, Dan Leotard right here
Starting point is 00:03:19 at the start of this interview. We have Roger Goodell, the commissioner of the NFL. But we have this third sort of shadowy figure that we don't know much about. They call him the Draft King, and that's what connects these two together to sort of start this whole thing. But we're looking at sort of the Leotard extended universe
Starting point is 00:03:36 of crime family. So we start right here. The GBF family. First, there's John Weiner, street name Stu Gotts. Then there's Guillermo Gill, street name The Duke. They're connected of course to Leotard, they're also connected to the Draft King. Then you got Mike Ryan, here a leader of the GC crew, obviously the Golden Canes. They connect him to Leotard and also the Draft King.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Of course the Foot Girls clan, they're not only connected to Gadle, to Leotard, but also to Misogyny. They are connected to Misogyny, which we know obviously connected to the NFL as well. I mean come on. Then there's the 1440 boys, the Greg Cody show. Now we can connect them not only to Levitard, but also to Mike McDaniel and the Miami Dolphins, Mike McDaniel, who we can connect to us. So what do we know about the Hawk Tua family and their connections over here? Well, Andrew Hawkins, known as Hawk, connected to Lebatard. Mark Hawkman, known as Hawk, connected to Lebatard.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Obviously when you hear the word Hawk at the moment, Hawk Tua is the first thing you think of. Well, Hawk Tua, Tua, that's a part of it. This whole family as well has been a part of a viral sensation to sort of tone down the name Tua and make it seem even more palatable as Lyotard obviously works with the NFL to make all of these things happen. So you've got all of these different families working together, but you also have really
Starting point is 00:04:57 important industries that we need to get to because our Amin El-Hassan is connected to DMX obviously, so the music industry might be a huge part of this as well connected to Barack Obama so the entire political structure needs to be working in turn with Leotard and Gadel obviously Ricky Williams and the weed conglomerate working with Dan working with the Draft King working with Roger Gadel all in cahoots. Notice our Juju Gotti and Roger Goodell caught in the act. Cahooting, cahooting at the Super Bowl. Why is Shannon Sharp up there? Well obviously Shannon Sharp, part of the movie industry,
Starting point is 00:05:35 once connected talking movies to our own Dan Leotard. And so you can connect him to the NFL. He was really talking to the movie. You can connect him to the Draft King and Honestly guys what we realize after we look at all of this is it all started right here in this moment As Dan awkwardly embraced NFL superstar, okay, Josh Norman that was the moment that good Dell knew that Dan could be cahooted Why is a moment like this.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Carol, Carol, Carol! It's Pepe Silvio, of course, Dan. This is where it all started. Okay, I appreciate all that investigative work. The wire. I'm glad that we got to the bottom of it. I knew something was up that Josh Norman hug. I knew something was up that day.
Starting point is 00:06:22 It was the moment. Caught on surveillance camera. I mean, like that's as FBI level investigation as you can get that. That's federal work. When we talk about taking out the media in America, can you guys explain to me why so many people are writing to me in the middle of the two of flores thing
Starting point is 00:06:41 and saying, why isn't anyone blaming you, Levatard? Blaming you for what it is that happened here, this discord that you created inside the Dolphins, making unnecessary distractions for our football team before an important season. A whole lot of people are wondering about the media's role in this. I'm dead serious.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Like, why are they doing, for asking him the question which was really open ended and was meant as a bit of a softball to just talk about what Mike McDaniel believing in you is about. Like it wasn't, the intention was not to create anything that resembled noise for three days. I mean come on, we knew with that question.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Like we wanted them to. No you didn't know how, he could absolutely give you quarterback speaking. He could have just taken it and talked about McDaniel, but the question was like these two different, like tell us how is the, what's the change here? If anybody had an agenda, it was clearly Tua. He had the platform and he seemed very eager for someone to ask him that question. And I mean, he knows when he's giving that answer that it's going to make waves.
Starting point is 00:07:44 And I don't think he cares. Yeah, now that's the thing. This wasn't him being baited into saying something. He was very forward in what he wanted to say because as you guys just pointed out, he could easily say, what's the difference? Oh, Mike McDaniel, imagine a guy who wakes up every day to build you up as opposed to tear you down.
Starting point is 00:08:01 Like he could have done it from the Mike McDaniel angle. He chose to do it from a Brian Flores angle. I don't have any problem with it. That was his experience. It doesn't sound like from Brian Flores' press conference that Tua said anything that was inaccurate. Right? Well this part I don't think we covered
Starting point is 00:08:16 quite enough yesterday. In being jarred by the Brian Flores press conference, when you talk about how you avoid these things with either quarterback speak or coach speak, this was a professional head coach. He knows how to navigate these things. I didn't have on my bingo card, copping to being an asshole,
Starting point is 00:08:38 which is kind of what he did. Like, I didn't have him coming out. Sampson said he shouldn't have done that, that it made him appear weak. I didn't have him coming out at the time since that he shouldn't have done that that made him appear week i didn't think so i thought it was a moment of humility i thought it was strong i don't need it my football leader who looks like blot brian flores to physically flex in front
Starting point is 00:09:01 of me and repress all of his feelings. When he says, yeah, it hit hard to hear him call me a terrible person, the acknowledgement is what blew me away. The fact that he was willing to cop to a press conference. When have you ever seen the coach have the press conference where he says, yeah, I was an asshole? Like, it's not what he said, but he said it the way that he could under the circumstances. So what's the debate here? I genuinely don't know. Like what's the pushback that you're receiving creating a distraction or being cahooted?
Starting point is 00:09:31 It seems as though Tua had an agenda, use the platform to share the agenda. There was no real denial from Brian Flores. If anything, there was a confirmation of that, said he has grown from it. And I think that's a case closed. Well, we provided said platform, and we provided said platform that ended up
Starting point is 00:09:50 further discrediting Brian Flores and further absolving the Dolphins to the NFL. And that was what the plan was, as we saw with Jeremy's board. It's all designed to be in cahoots to bring out about the top best case scenario for the National Football League. Can you guys get me the Darlington sound?
Starting point is 00:10:16 Chris Cody is claiming that Darlington is mad at us. Now Darlington, let me tell you a little bit about Darlington. He reported that golf arrest, and now he thinks he's Mr. News and Information guy who's out in front of everybody, and why aren't you listening to me when I've told you things months early? He reported months ago that the reason Flores was fired
Starting point is 00:10:36 was his handling of Tua specifically, and there's a clip here we're about to play of him basically saying on SportsCenter, like, this shouldn't be new to Flores. I said this months ago. Why is nobody talking about this? This is what's happening here. Chris Cody is theorizing, I want to allege,
Starting point is 00:10:51 look, let's come back and fight fire with fire. Is Stephen A. Smith's gonna accuse us of being in Cahoot? Let's us publicly as a show, accuse Jeff Darlington of being acidically bitter about the fact that no one listened to his story until we prodded it out of Tua while being in cahoots with Goodell, the NFL, and the Dolphins to undermine the black head coach or the black assistant coach in Minnesota. You know, the only thing I'd say about that is if Brian Flores was surprised about Tua Tunga
Starting point is 00:11:21 Valoa's comments or feelings, he has had his head in the sand since the moment he was fired. It's part of the reason that he was fired. His record did not merit him to be fired. It was his treatment of Tua Tunga Wailoa large in part, which I had reported at the time. If you're fired because of your treatment towards somebody, and then two years later, you act surprised by that, that's my only, I I would say question about that.
Starting point is 00:11:47 This is not a surprise to Brian Flores. Yes, hopefully it is a teachable moment, but it should have been a teachable moment the second he was fired for his treatment of a player when I reported it. Darlington is pissed and he's been wearing sunglasses at camp that make his face tan weirdly. Dan, what are you alleging here? I am alleging that Darlington is angry
Starting point is 00:12:08 because he reported something months ago correctly and accurately and no one cared until Tua said it. I'm talking about the other thing that you alleged there at the end. I'm alleging that he was at camp and he was wearing sunglasses and the makeup people who were handling his makeup
Starting point is 00:12:23 betrayed him on this day and they could not hide his anger behind makeup, because look at him, like embittered, embittered, filled with rage, and I owe him a bet, by the way, one of the things that we escaped, like Whittingham escaped all of his grid of death punishments by just leaving the company. When I left the ESPN,
Starting point is 00:12:42 I end up getting away from the bet I lost to Darlington. He was going to tase me, was he not? On the air? Yeah, he was. ESPN loved that idea. They were like, yeah, totally do it. There's nothing wrong with this. We love it. Keep doing more. Do more of that. Threaten to tase more talent and just think that you could do it without informing anybody. This is a great idea. You're fucking fired. I thought it was because we were woke. Let go. You said earlier in the show.
Starting point is 00:13:10 No, you're not fired for this, but this is a drop in a bucket. What? Get out of here. I thought it was because we were too woke. Money cut. Which one was it? You are fired.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Which one was it? You are fired, you don't talk enough sports. You see kids in cages, no one wants to hear that. This is the coward slot, people. Like, just, what are you doing with this slot? Kids in cages? Put it on the poll at LeBataar's show. Can you just say that?
Starting point is 00:13:32 Why were we fired? Too woke or Dan's taser bet with Jeff Darlington? What is it with you? Every day there's something new. That was my experience after every show. You wanna know what one of the worst jobs in America is? Oh no. Being executive producer of the Levitard Show
Starting point is 00:13:52 while I was with ESPN and trying to explain Dan's behavior as if I had any insight to it. And while you weren't an ESPN employee either, which is a lot of fun. That was, yeah, at the very beginning I wasn't an ESPN employee because, you know, that's how things work over there. And I was just producing daily content
Starting point is 00:14:10 while not actually being on the payroll. Who was paying you? It was the- The ticket? Lincoln Financial, yeah. Lincoln Financial. Jeremy, add that to the board. Lincoln Financial.
Starting point is 00:14:20 There was a really fun three week period where my contract was finally absorbed by ESPN, but also Lincoln Financial had closed on a sale. So for one whole week, I had to do all the corporate onboarding for a place that I was going to be at for five minutes. So all the compliance, all the training, everything. A crash course in a week, having to sign up for healthcare
Starting point is 00:14:47 for one pay period, doing all of that stuff, and then two weeks later resetting the clock and doing it all over again for the Walt Disney Company, which actually had Mark Hamill voicing over those videos, which was a lot more enjoyable. How much do you think they paid him to do that? Hamill? Yeah, because beyond being Luke Skywalker, he's a very accomplished, very, very respected
Starting point is 00:15:09 voice actor. So to do voiceover work, even though it's Mark Hamill, it's like, yo, he does the Joker and the Batman animated series and- 100K? I'm getting to- No way. 100K? No way.
Starting point is 00:15:21 100K? He's there every year. Dude, 100K? 100K? I guarantee you he's made at least $100,000. He's made way more. Off of the HR videos? Way more. Wow. 100K?
Starting point is 00:15:30 You have a good voice, have you ever considered doing voice work? I have, actually, yes. Antiquado. What is, that is the very limited Antonio Banderas saying the single word he knows. Travis Kelce is gonna be paid what to do Happy Gilmore 2. How does that all come together?
Starting point is 00:15:46 Happy Gilmore 2, Adam Sandler, hey, he's got one of the best gigs in the history of entertainment where he just gathers together a bunch of people he wants to go on vacation with and makes a movie. Happy Gilmore 2 is easy for him to do and compare that to where we are with Rush Hour 4, by the way, because Chris tucker and jackie chan
Starting point is 00:16:06 wanted to rush hour four it's being sent out all over the place but they can't do it because brett ratner is attached as a producer and director and that guy's got so much shit in his past he's trying to go he's trying to become the mel gibson route of maybe i can skate through by grabbing a couple of things here on the side ride jackie chan and chris tucker and nostalgia right past all of this shit Maybe I can skate through by grabbing a couple of things here on the side, ride Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker
Starting point is 00:16:25 and nostalgia right past all of this shit. Remember when Eddie Murphy was gonna host the Oscars? This was a recent thing, because Brett Ratner was producing the Oscars. And then Ratner got moved off the Oscars, and that's how we lost Eddie Murphy hosting the Oscars. So Happy Gilmore 2, Travis Kelce is now reported to be a part of
Starting point is 00:16:45 that. What are you what are you sighing about? Because like there's a couple of things. Look I like Travis Kelsey a lot. As we've established me and the Kelseys we go back prior to the whole Taylor Swift thing. I'm a day one with the Kelsey family and by day one I mean the Super Bowl in Arizona. Why are you giving us your Kelsey bona fide? I just I want to be clear as I'm a fan of Travis Kelsey as a player. I'm a fan of him off the field, all of his endeavors. He was in that short-lived sitcom on Showtime
Starting point is 00:17:14 about a mission to Mars basically. Some space show, yeah. Yeah, but he played himself being part of this mission. He played Travis Kelsey. John C. Reilly, is Steve Carell in that? I believe so, yes. I thought Steve Carell in that I believe so yes I thought Steve Carell was in the other one The other one you're right
Starting point is 00:17:32 Moon base eight there you go, so I Support his ambitions, but when you tell me it's an Adam Sandler vehicle I Know exactly how this goes you guys how does this come about it comes about like this Adam Sandler vehicle. I know exactly how this goes. How does this come about? It comes about like this. Adam Sandler is sitting on a couch, laying back on a couch. His feet are kicked up. He's throwing a ball of some sorts up in the air and catching it. And then someone says, hey Adam, Travis Kelsey wants to be in one of your movies.
Starting point is 00:17:59 And Adam says, okay. And basically they're going to cast him as like the firefighter who shows up like, hey, what's the big idea over here? And that's it it like there's no thought process. There's no writing. It's an Adam Sandler movie It is the simple lowest common denominator story basically you nailed it on the head They give him an exorbitant amount of money He casts his friends and go on to tropical locations to shoot this shit The story is written in a day Maybe a day and a half on the back of a napkin,
Starting point is 00:18:25 and they just goof off. So it sounds like this, so it sounds, it would sound something like this. Hey Adam, can we put Travis Kelce in Happy Gilmore 2? I do believe, yes, yes, yes, we will do that, we will do that, yes, yes, yes, yes. I hate that voice so much. He does an amazing job.
Starting point is 00:18:40 That's really good. Oh, do you hate that impression? Oh my God. It's also really good. So bad. A chorus of Adam Sandler's. The impression is so bad. Adam Sandler will often be seen in New York. Hey ho ho. You know what I hate about Adam Sandler the most?
Starting point is 00:18:59 The most. Is I've hated almost every single movie he's created, including the one that you made me watch, Mike, when we were in the old studio. It was Billy Madison. Oh my God, that movie was so terrible. Stop looking at me, Swann. I hate all of his movies except for one. Punch Drunk Love is great.
Starting point is 00:19:18 It's great. It's okay. I would have to explain that one to ESPN. Conditioner is better. I leave the hair silky and smooth. The reason I hate him the most is because I know in my heart of hearts, if I met Adam Sandler, we would probably be very good friends,
Starting point is 00:19:36 and then at some point, I'd get cast in one of his movies, and then I'd have to recant every playing pickup basketball game. Absolutely, I'd be, I'm there for it. And I hate that about myself, Dan. If I, I might need to go to the therapy couch. I, this is what I hate about myself. I know I'm a fraud. I know it.
Starting point is 00:19:55 I look in the mirror every morning and I look at this fraud. You know what? Go ahead and go to the therapy couch right now. I need to. Yes, because you can be bought. If Kelsey ends up as like a police officer and happy Gilmore to Shaq and Dan Patrick are gonna be like what the fuck Adam Sandler is known to walk the streets of New York this is aggressive eating straight from a jar of pickles hell yeah that's the way to do it right
Starting point is 00:20:23 there that's amazing just to walk around as a famous person. You know those sweats smell like pickle juice. You know he's going to get into a pickup game somewhere in his 50s at some Y somewhere. And then he's going to call Kevin James. They're going to shout at the Mets game and then they're going to go to Hawaii and make a movie. Cause Happy Gilmore 2, people will watch it just for the nostalgia. Netflix will pay how much for that movie? How much money would Netflix pay for Happy Gilmore 2? He's got a first look deal, right? He's got a development deal there,
Starting point is 00:20:52 so I think it's like an all-encompassing deal with him. But he doesn't have to do that. He can do any number of projects and then save that for the side, because that's a movie that can make all manner of money whenever it is that he wants to make it. Whenever he were to put it out, that's a movie that people make all manner of money whenever it is that he wants to make it. Whenever he were to put it out, that's a movie that people are gonna want the nostalgia of, Oh, I love this guy. I love that movie from 20 years ago.
Starting point is 00:21:12 He is. Do you guys want Rush Hour 4? Because... No, I don't... I didn't want Rush Hour 3. I don't really understand how I can go about pretending to be this person who's so tough and he doesn't like anything and all. He's oh I mean he's so harsh and stuff. He's always hating on stuff. And deep down inside I kind of know I want that acceptance man.
Starting point is 00:21:34 I want that widespread acceptance. Jackie Chan's career deserves to be memorialized. He is an old man now. He's done his own stunts forever. He is one of the greatest talents in the history internationally of entertainment and Hollywood and he deserves the proper send-off as a real and true legend. Dan says that he thinks of Punch, Drunk, Love is the one movie I like of Adam Sandler's and that's not that. I actually didn't think it was that great. I thought
Starting point is 00:22:04 it was just because he was talking in a regular voice and now all of a sudden We're just gonna respect them get out of here What movie do you think it was that was Adam Sandler was it the one about dying in comedy was it Did he do that one with Seth Rogen? I don't know. Is it well, I don't know what the name of that movie I need people. Thank you. I appreciate that, Adam. I appreciate it. Anchor management? That was a good one. Some classics, man.
Starting point is 00:22:29 I spoke to me in a way that I don't know if I could even explain it to people, because I think most people actually don't like this movie. It's you don't mess with the Zohan, and I don't know why. That's a good movie, actually. That's a really good movie. That right there, honestly, it nails down
Starting point is 00:22:46 all the tensions you need to know that are going on in the Middle East. That movie is a great representation, truly. I watched it around my bar mitzvah with a bunch of my friends, which was interesting timing. The thing about what is it, Rebound or whatever it was called, that basketball movie, that everybody made a big deal,
Starting point is 00:23:01 is that Doc Rivers is in it and Dave Yeager's on the assistant coaching staff, which he was in in it and Dave Yeager's on the assistant coaching staff which he was in real life. Dave Yeager could not walk. All he needed to do is walk down a hallway behind Doc Rivers. He acted his ass on with just walking. On Cinephobe we gave him an award for, we called it the Dave Yeager award for not being able to even play the background. What kind of therapy session is this? It's such a great setup for a Doc Rivers impression. I was like, Dave, Dave, you just have to walk.
Starting point is 00:23:30 We're not asking you to even have a line. You don't even have to have a reaction. You just walk. Wait, I mean, I mean, can you do me the favor, please? I mean, can you just do for me, Doc Rivers in therapy right now? Doc Rivers, we go in live exclusively to Doc Rivers right now in his life with everything that's happened
Starting point is 00:23:52 over the last 24 months. Let's check in exclusively, something that feels like an ethical violation, on Doc Rivers talking with his therapist. Everybody seems to blame me for what happened at ESPN with JJ leaving and I left them in the lurch. They said, what lurch? What lurch?
Starting point is 00:24:09 Hey, they offered me $40 million to coach Giannis and Davey Lillard. Who would, hell, Norby would have taken that deal. What are you talking about? What are you talking to? And then I get there and it was bad because the record wasn't so good under me. Hey, I'd have training camp I'd have an opportunity to blow a 3-1 lead. That's what I do. I build up a 3-1 lead
Starting point is 00:24:36 There's a good segment there Doc Rivers in therapy Doc Rivers has a four seed Perpetually in therapy just you keep tuning in and all Doc Rivers is talking about is, perpetually in therapy. Just talking, you keep tuning in, and all Doc Rivers is talking about is, we're up three one? We were always up three one? Oh my God. I'm glad you did that, Amin. Congratulations on successfully executing a bit.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Love those Georgia Tech shorts. Big game in Dublin. It's bubbling in Dublin. There's no Viari. You know what you don't do? You know what you don't do, Dan? You don't give Brent Key months to prepare for a football game. That's something that you don't do. I thought for sure you would have opinions on Delaware State missing its ten and a half hour flight. Yeah, my opinions are why was this yanked off the board so quickly before I could lay into that Hawaii line?

Mike Ryan's in there, and he's the one with the baby. He's the one who's got to, like, worry about what the future is.
Starting point is 00:27:42 And Mike Ryan bet on DraftKings because Mike Ryan bet on us this is the bet you're afraid of doubling down on putting up a billboard in Edmonton. Stugarts! I care more about Matthew Kachuk than I do my daughter. This is the Don LeBathard Show with the Stugarts! It's not my favorite region. Context needs to be applied. I'm going for a joke. I thought the context was applied. We'd like to rip that out of context. I was going for a thing. And I have a family. You're going to pretend here that you don't
Starting point is 00:28:17 love Matthew Kachuck more than you love anybody you've ever loved? I don't love Matthew Kachuck more than my daughter now. It's pretty damn close I've loved Matthew Kachuck more than I've ever thought I could love a professional athlete It's my favorite of all time if he needed an organ I would give it and it doesn't matter which organ it could be the heart. I would give him my heart You already have given him your heart. Yeah, but literally I would he gave us his heart too And that's why we love him so much. Well no, he gave you his hort. Heart and hort are two different things.
Starting point is 00:28:49 Heart is like I love you. Hort is like yo I'm gonna leave it all out on the line for this game. No I mean the organ that pumps the blood through the body. I would give that to him if he needed it. That's also out of context. I don't think I would die for Matthew Cachon. You would leave your daughter, you would die. No I wouldn't do that because of the mess
Starting point is 00:29:06 that I would leave behind. I'm very important to my family. It's a mess? I would leave behind a mess. If you gave your heart to Matthew Kachuck. Loads of debt and NIL contracts that haven't been completed. I can't do that to these kids. I thought it was like the unresolved dump
Starting point is 00:29:20 that's inside you would finally just release. Yeah, I actually had a really good one earlier today. Yeah? Yeah. Okay, you guys, why is it that you guys can't, Kind of lipped out of the bowl. You can't go a couple of hours without going into the shit humor.
Starting point is 00:29:32 Like, you can't do it. The both of you are fundamentally incapable. No, don't drag me into this. He asked me a question, I responded. No, all right, moving on. The thing that I wanted to talk about last segment that I didn't get off the ground while we were talking about Rush Hour 4 being plagued and polluted by brett
Starting point is 00:29:48 ratner jackie chan deserves a send-off man jackie chan has had a legendary career doing movies the way no one else does that doing all of his own stunts in a way that would make even Tom Cruise blush and He deserves to be celebrated. I mean this career deserves how old is Jackie Chan now? How many books give me looks like a recent Jackie Chan controversy that should like shine the light on him. No way there Yeah, yeah, 70 years old. I'm getting down to it. Get me the list Please Jeremy of things Jackie Chan has broken on the set
Starting point is 00:30:25 He's canceled in Asia for being quote an a-hole to his family His family are a-holes How about that? How do you know this? Because he's Jackie Chan. There's like Jackie Chan can't be the a-hole Like Jackie Chan is always a good guy and someone wow, that's an idea for a movie. Jackie Chan plays a villain. I've never seen him. Maybe that's the last movie he needs to do. Jackie Chan plays a villain.
Starting point is 00:30:51 I don't think he, can he do it? He's a great actor, but I don't know if he could pull that one off. Jeremy, can you find for us please the assortment of injuries that Jackie Chan has suffered on the set, because I'm guessing that his body is fundamentally broken. I'm guessing that he's walking through
Starting point is 00:31:06 what remains of his career as a football player in his 70s. I've got a full list here. All right, broken eyebrow ridge on Drunken Master, lacerated lip on Police Story 4, tooth knocked out doing Snake and the Eagle's shadow, dislocated shoulder, damaged cervical spine, broken breastbone, broken fingers, damaged knee, injured ankle, injured thigh, damaged cervical spine, broken breastbone, broken fingers, damaged knee,
Starting point is 00:31:26 injured ankle, injured thigh, damaged tailbone, dislocated pelvis, spinal damage, injured lower chin, fractured skull, bone caving in behind his left ear and bleeding brain, broken nose, dislocated cheekbone, and injured eye. And you wanna call him an a-hole? Apparently disowned a daughter You know, there's all sorts of stuff. We don't know what she did Mike
Starting point is 00:31:54 We well some people seem to think that they know and it would be really horrible if it were true injured lower chin It's your upper chin I mean is in the tank for Jackie Chan and he will defend him at all costs just because of his filmography. I at all costs just because of his filmography. I know man because I saw a video not too long ago of him being surprised by his stunt team. Like he was on a talk show, a Chinese talk show, and then they brought his stunt team out from behind him as he was watching clips or something, and then he turns around, they're all there,
Starting point is 00:32:17 and he got so emotional because he talks about, everyone praises me for what I did, and I can't do it without an incredible team of people like these guys and to hear him get so emotional, man I got emotional, you know I don't get emotional, but man I got emotional. Jackie Chan, that man is a legend and a treasure. There's nothing you could tell me about Jackie Chan.
Starting point is 00:32:38 I'll be like, oh we gotta cancel him. Nothing? Nothing. Nothing. That seems to be extreme there. Your love for Jackie Chan. I'm not gonna ruin your heroes. It's so pure that you're saying that if you heard something
Starting point is 00:32:51 that was bad about Jackie Chan, you wouldn't even be disappointed because you simply would reject it. You would say it is not true. I wouldn't believe it. He made Supercop. Supercop. He did make Supercop.
Starting point is 00:33:04 Put it on the poll please at Levitage Show. Is Jackie Chan a certified legend in the game? Oh come on, is that a poll? Have we ever had 105% come back on the poll? Let's see, I think a lot of people, look, what I have realized in the rejection of expertise and the general ageism that's out there that dilutes the wisdom of elders is that young people will wave around a flag of ignorance on somebody whose career
Starting point is 00:33:33 resume they're not familiar with and next thing you know Robert De Niro can't make shit because this last 10 years of his filmography make it so that it's not any good anymore and you're 81 years old did you you see him jumping into the water? We did. We played that. Well, plummeted. He was also just nominated for an Oscar. Yeah, but anything Scorsese makes.
Starting point is 00:33:53 It's like the only good things De Niro's made the last 10 years is it's things that Scorsese's involved in. You weren't impressed by this? That was super impressive. That he fell and plummeted into the water? And he survived it. You ever, like, I'm 38 years old. There are times that I'm tying my shoe.
Starting point is 00:34:07 I'm like, am I gonna be able to do this 10 years from now? And putting on socks is like a legit, why is this, this bothers me? Mike, I'll tell you right now, you can do this when you're 80. He's just falling. I mean, it's just falling from a great height. Yeah, but okay, but he's not falling on concrete.
Starting point is 00:34:25 He's not falling on Tony's patch of well-shorn land. Thank you. Whoever edited this video to make it starting with the fall is just like, it couldn't have been better. Cause originally you watch it, you're like, oh, they started the video too late. No, they started this video at the perfect time, mid fall. Tony has hit the note.
Starting point is 00:34:46 That's what the accompanying audience should be. It shouldn't be some guy saying, whoa, that's so brave or whatever the guy says. I think that's a really impressive feat, I think. Mike, this is an 80 year old man plummeting in a way that made him land on his neck in the water because his body just turned with gravity. There was no grace in it.
Starting point is 00:35:07 It is just how a weight, it is how a weight would fall that wasn't breathing. It looked like it would hurt. His arms and legs are like still as he falls. Like usually there's like some sort of like. I would look no better. Well. I would look no better.
Starting point is 00:35:21 No, wait, wait, wait, wait. This is not an insult of Robert De Niro. There's a certain sturdy thickness to this. Stiffness, it looks like Greg Cody falling. It does? But can you imagine Greg doing that? I'd be genuinely worried. I would be very worried.
Starting point is 00:35:36 I think that there was a chance, you can't count it out, Greg would die as a result of this stunt. Did you guys know that in the Chinese, the Mandarin version of Beauty and the Beast, the Disney animated movie, Jackie Chan played the Beast? Come on, guys. I'm gonna do this to Greg Cody at his 70th birthday party.
Starting point is 00:35:55 I've asked for a film crew to come. I've asked. Hey Greg, come out here for a second. I wanna show you something. I wanna show you something down there. He'd love it. I caution you guys that you have to ask Greg Cote first, because the diva in him sometimes,
Starting point is 00:36:11 if everybody wants something, he will just reject it because he wants to be the guy who's in charge of things. And he's very capable of not wanting a film crew, because he's going to get drunk, and he's going to embarrass himself. Like, that's gonna get drunk and he's gonna embarrass himself. Like that's a for sure, it's a for sure. He's gonna start drinking too early in the day. He's gonna be a combination of excited
Starting point is 00:36:35 but also weirdly shy around a whole bunch of people that he actually knows and he's gonna start drinking and retreating. It's my birthday, I can have a couple before the boat no problem. Next thing you know reenactment. Next thing you know he's knocking the paintings off the wall at my brother's first art exhibition because he's had too much red wine. Summer's the best time to run the way you want dial it up with new challenges and programs and bring your workouts with you to make the most of outside sunny days. Stugats, guess what? What?
Starting point is 00:37:06 You know what you can do with Peloton? What? Get the app, go outside, ride a bike. Well, I thought you ride Peloton inside. Well, you do, you can ride Peloton inside. Okay. If it's a rainy day or if it's cloudy, you just don't want to get outside,
Starting point is 00:37:15 maybe it's too hot. It's summertime, go outside. I record a lot from my office with you. Yeah. And you notice it's sitting there, yet it hasn't been used. What? Now's the time. Summer's the best time to start that push, Sugat.
Starting point is 00:37:25 Right, can we do it together? Not on the same bike, but we could join a class together. I used to do that. We used to have Guillermo-ton. I'd invite people. We'd all take a class together, same time. So I think you're starting to get concerned about my health and my age, Billy.
Starting point is 00:37:36 I sense that with you. We're beyond starting. OK. Whatever road lies ahead, your training starts here with Peloton Tread and Tread Plus. Not just a bike, a treadmill too. I'm going to go outside, I'm going to get in shape, I'm going to do it with Billy Gill. I want to be in your class. I want you to be my instructor.
Starting point is 00:37:50 You know what? I won't be your instructor. You don't want to spend more time with me. No, I can schedule a class and we can ride together. But I won't be the instructor of the class. We can have Camila could be our instructor. I like the Grateful Dead class. My daughter, she uses the Peloton. She was on it once and an instructor who was playing Grateful Dead too. So let's do that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:38:08 Why don't we go for a run outside, guided run Peloton. Me and you, that's something we can do together. Okay. Turn on the app, me and you go outside, enjoy the summer. Call yourself a runner with Peloton at onepeloton.com slash running. All right.
