for details. restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys.
I've done it.
And now here's the marching band to nowhere, that face and the habitual liar.
Billy, do you think that anyone in Raven's in game festivities or marketing when they
brought out Tarell Suggs emotionally late in the game to fire up the crowd and show his
Championship ring off to people. Do you think that anyone in Raven's
Front office or marketing took inventory of the fact that the last championship Terrell Suggs won
It was for the Kansas City Chiefs. I know
I'm also just learning this information too.
I knew that because it was the Super Bowl
that was down here and I had the task of free ESPN radio
running around and handing my phone to players
so that they could join Mike Tannenbaum's Super Bowl
recap live on ESPN radio.
And I got Terrell Suggs, he was the person that I got,
I ran up and I gave him the phone
and he got the exclusive with Mike Tannenbaum
right after the game.
And I was very nervous.
One, that my phone was gonna die.
Two, that I wasn't gonna have reception.
And three, that he was just gonna run away with my phone
because I heard stories headed into it
that players had taken people's phones before.
They just got so excited and they went into the locker room
and then you don't have access to the locker room
and then your phone is gone and then you have to find someone that can go in there and find your phone.
It's a whole thing. So it was a very stressful, it was a very stressful thing.
It was my first time that I was covering the Super Bowl at the game, so I didn't want to let the bosses down.
So I got Terrell Suggs and then I didn't successfully get anyone else.
But I heard they were very excited because they got Terrell Suggs before he was on TV, which is a big get.
Even though he didn't really factor that much into the game. They were very excited because they got thrall sogs before he was on TV, which is a big get even though
He didn't really factor that much into the game people do seem to be freaking out about this being a rematch from the game
That happened like right before the COVID-19 shut down during the last election cycle. So
Mmm, I don't I don't know. Maybe this will like undo the curse
Maybe the Niners win this one and things go back to normal now. It's weird.
It feels like a nostalgic Super Bowl,
even though they last played four years ago.
So much about the world has changed since their last matchup
that I'm a little worried something bad is
going to happen four weeks after the Super Bowl.
Can't get worse.
Is this where we're at, where we're now
afraid of things that are imaginary? Yes. Yes, we've been there Billy
The 49ers win is not gonna undo COVID. I didn't know I was doing the show with John McClain
We'll come back to life. Who knows?
Kansas City in that game
I think people get forgetful about how badly out coach Kansas City was in that game
They don't have Tyree kill anymore and they converted some third and something ridiculous
to Tyree Kill with a flutter ball.
But like with Garoppolo, San Francisco was a pass away
from winning that game and Kansas City had to come back
because they got smothered with a much better offense
than the one they're going into this game with.
They got smothered most of that game.
Double digit lead in that one.
I think it's the fifth time in NFL history
there's been a rematch of coaches in the Super Bowl.
And of course we have Tom Coughlin beating Bill Belichick
twice, but all four other times,
the coach that won the first time won the second time.
That's amazing.
I'm just ready for all the AI written blog post
and articles on they showed you why they went with Brock
Purdy over Jimmy Garoppolo because when it came time to make the throw because we all
know there's going to be a time in that Super Bowl he's going to have to make a play that
Jimmy Garoppolo couldn't.
Put it on the poll please who do you feel worst for today?
Zay Flowers or the city of Detroit Because the city of Detroit is waking up today
with a feeling that's going to feel
like just an empty sort of sickness.
Let's put up this photo of Eminem at the game,
shooting birds at everybody during a happier time
when they were, I'm guessing they were winning
at that point and things felt better.
I was thinking about this this morning.
There's a lot of different ways to give the finger, right?
Like that's one of the meanest ways.
That's like a, yeah, I really don't like you.
With the saddles, with the side dance.
Exactly, if you just do like one solo finger,
it's like, oh, like, hee hee.
We were robbed of a great celebrity musician,
Majup in the Super Bowl, the dichotomy of Taylor Swift
and her fan base with Eminem and his fan base.
He should have leaned in,
he should have started dating Sam LaPorta.
Can you show for me please on video
because I don't know what happened here, Stu Gotz.
Was this playful what was happening before the game
with Mahomes and Justin Tucker where Justin Tucker is coming in with
His kicking tees and he's putting them in Mahomes his area and Mahomes and Kelsey are going back and forth
And they're pulling and kicking
Tucker's tees is this a playful thing here little gamesmanship Dan, you know
Because Chris Cody Cody what did you
think here because it seems like my homes might be playing but I don't know
that Kelsey is playing here it all seems playful to me Justin Tucker seems to be
smiling I feel like these guys have like hung out at Pro Bowls I don't know I
just add in I didn't see this as like a real incident this seemed playful a real
incident no like where people have to be separated and stuff like this is just This has like a real incident. This seemed playful. A real incident. I thought it was a giant incident.
No, like where people have to be separated and stuff.
Like this is just guys having fun with each other.
The tell is the guy in the black coat that appears
next to Justin Tucker after the second one, right?
So the first one's like, hey, Justin Tucker laughs it off.
He pats him on the back and it's like a whole thing.
Then look at the guy over there.
See him at the right of the screen in the black coat.
There you go.
Watch him.
The second time he throws up his hands and he's like, what's up? That black coat. There you go. Watch him. The second time, he throws up his hands
and he's like, what's up?
That guy was ready to throw down.
Watch this.
Oh, there he goes.
Watch the hands.
Here we go.
They're coming now.
If you're listening on the podcast, this makes no sense.
There they are.
To me, what I saw here was just classic Travis Kelsey
wanting to get in on the attention.
This is Mahomes messing with Tucker.
And then Kelsey kind of sees it.
He's like, oh, I want to go do that too.
This is fun.
Oh, there's cameras getting this.
Let me go be part of this.
It's like Mahomes and Tucker
are already doing this thing.
They're just doing a little peanuts bit.
Yeah.
It's a comic strip happening right now.
Kelsey injected himself.
I'm not just like, oh, I want some of this attention.
I'm not going to pretend to know
what a field goal kicker's pregame routine is supposed to be.
I just find that a very odd place
to be warming up field goals with. Since? It's a 10 yard field goal kicker's pregame routine is supposed to be. I just find that a very odd place
to be warming up field goals with.
Since the 10 yard field goal from there.
I think Justin Tucker's got that one down.
Stugatz, when it comes to dolphin analysis around here,
I would say that it's probably not too much of a coincidence
that all four of the teams that you were watching yesterday
have dominant tight ends.
The Dolphins do not have a dominant tight end.
They're a tight end away.
The thing that I wanted to ask you though
as it relates to Kelsey is, I don't want to get forgetful.
I don't want to be prisoner of the moment,
but Gronk is the best tight end we've ever seen
and Brady is the best quarterback we've ever seen.
But how soon are the two guys in Kansas City, if they haven't already done it at tight end,
how soon before they take over the conversation on I'm the best that there's ever been at
that position?
I think Kelsey is for Mahomes.
It's five Super Bowl victories from there. I mean he's not gonna play till he's 45. Brady played in 10 Super Bowls. Mahomes
is halfway there and he's got, you know, if he plays as long as Brady, he's got
15 more years to get to 10 Super Bowls played in. Like I don't think anyone is
gonna play anymore as long as Brady does and Mahomes' body
isn't gonna hold up because he doesn't play
the same way that Tom Brady does.
So it's unreasonable to expect him to even play
into his early 40s or any quarterback
to play into their early 40s.
I mean he's one two, Brady one seven.
He's got five to go I guess.
Maybe if we get to five,
we'll start having that conversation,
but he still has to win five Super Bowls, Dan.
And he has to win one without the Chiefs.
He does.
He has to get to six with the Chiefs
and then go to a really bad team
and win a Super Bowl in his first season with them.
And then we can start discussing.
You'll always be able to say that Brady was two and O
against Patrick Mahomes in the post season
and one of them in the Super Bowl.
The only two losses that Mahomes has, he's 8-2 when he falls down in a playoff game by
more than 7 and the only time he hasn't been able to recover is against Tom Brady.
But Stugatz, you are someone who consistently, when it comes to quarterback play, you will
never put anyone other than Brady there
because all you do by way of measurement,
I understand it, is winning.
Winning, winning, winning.
Even though Tom Brady won one of those Superbowls
scoring 13 points.
But he won.
Yes, yes.
But I would say there are many people
watching football these days who would say
that the skill set that Mahomes has for a quarterback is better than Brady's.
I think a lot of people listening to this would make the argument that he can beat you
in more ways and now he has this thing that Jessica is talking about at 28, which Brady
didn't have this at 28.
He's inevitable.
He's four of the last five Super Bowls
because don't bet against him.
He's hard.
This one is tough to come by.
Brady got that later in his life.
He didn't have it.
His first Super Bowl run,
Brady threw one touchdown past the entire playoff run.
It took him a minute to get to where Mahomes is now.
Mahomes is further along now than Brady was at the same age
in terms of just evaluating the skillset.
Dan, you're right.
Brady, that first season, the first Super Bowl
he replaced Drew Bledsoe, he was a game manager.
I mean, that's really what he was.
And Bill loved him because he didn't turn the ball over.
And so, and they ended up winning a Super Bowl.
But Patrick Mahomes is not the reason.
Dan, every team's different.
And sometimes you need help. And Mahomes is no different reason. Dan, every team's different, and sometimes you need help,
and Mahomes is no different, and this year,
the defense is really helping them out.
They are helping them out, but what you just said
about Brady, just don't turn the ball over.
That's what Mahomes did yesterday.
100, and Lamar did.
But that's why they won the game.
Baltimore's defense isn't just great.
They caused turnovers, like they're good at turn turnovers and Mahomes didn't turn the ball over.
But they did nothing in the second half except the one throw at the end of the, 67 yards
in a half, Stugatz, is dreadful.
Baltimore's defense ransacked Kansas City, the second half of that game.
Kansas City won that game by simply winning the first half
and then just watching Baltimore punch itself
in the face the second half.
It was so interesting because you have the two-time MVP
versus Patrick Mahomes and you figure offensive fireworks.
You figure that, but these two defenses were two of the best
in the NFL the entire season.
And the game played out exactly like that,
even with those two guys playing quarterback.
Jessica said shootout.
She said shootout.
It was seven, seven shootout.
I didn't say shootout.
Everyone else said shootout.
You're watch party, yes.
Yeah.
Not the ball knowers, we all know.
You would agree, Stu Gatz.
I know we're talking about the Detroit disintegration,
but Baltimore disintegrated.
Yes.
The taunting, the penalties, the stupid penalties,
the turning the ball over twice in that kind of game
in and around the end zone.
I know Detroit because they were the last game
and because they were up 24-7
are gonna be accused more of disintegrating today
But the way Baltimore played was super immature
You know how I know the chiefs are good because they did the fumble into the end zone and they still won the game
Folks whether you're hosting a game day a movie night
The Giorno knows that planning a watch party on a budget isn't easy.
You need the perfect setting, the perfect squad, the perfect eats, and luckily you're
a game time mastermind.
And you know that grabbing DeGiorno classic crust pizza can bring home the dub because
it's packed with half a pound of cheese, sauce, and other toppings and comes at an
incredible price.
Make the game winning call and grab a DeGiorno classic crust pizza from the grocery store today. It's not job. It's a stable job.
I'm not ready to pack it in. I've got a lot of good football left in me. My footwork is underrated.
I can step up in the pocket with the best of them. No one can scare in the field like me.
But wouldn't it be nice to be around the family more often and not have to worry about any injuries?
Babe, just give me one more season. Stugats. Tell you what, I'm not going to therapy.
I'm not. Therapy is not happening. Sorry. You need to
work on you. There's one person pulling the rope for this
family right here. And it's Mike Glennon. This is the Don
Levitar Show with the Stugats.
This is the Don Lebatar Show with the Stugats. Stugats, there are a number of things about Brock Purdy that I find puzzling,
including the way all of the measurements at that position have changed over the last few
years that make it hard for people to identify whether the quarterback is good by himself
or whether he's a product of the system
and then we start doing the pie chart
on how much of this is he responsible for,
how much is the coach responsible for.
But nothing is more confusing to me about Brock Purdy
than the incredible passion people have
about wanting him to not be as good
as some others think he might be.
This is the last pick in the draft. This is an underdog story. This has some of the
Tom Brady elements to it and when Tom Brady started, he was a system quarterback.
Yes. And then he got so many reps that he became what he became, but I am genuinely puzzled.
Why wouldn't you root for the guy who was the last pick in the draft to be great unless the thing
that's most important to you is that your assessment of how good someone is has to be exactly right without any dilution by
degrees and that's the most important thing not that the guy who's kind of a
great story seems to be pretty good and is exceeding every expectation except
for yours because you don't want him to be better than you think he is. You nailed
it. I don't get that. Like what's happening there? And give me someone else that the coverage of that person
is like that, there are some people,
Shannon Sharp among them, so invested in the idea
he shouldn't be the reason they win when yesterday,
kind of the reason they won.
Lucky pass.
Okay, but kind of the reason they won.
The same pass that Garoppolo didn't get lucky on in the Super Bowl and lost to Mahomes
Right, he got lucky that it bounced off a face mask and he advances, but you understand what I'm asking you, right?
I don't get the coverage of him. Why root against this person being excellent
Why why root so hard to be right that you want him to lose that game?
I think this person was going against America's team yesterday in particular
and everyone wanted to see Detroit win.
Therefore, they are not happy that Brock Purdy not only won, but was a reason.
I'm not talking about just yesterday, though, because it's all the coverage of
Bert of Purdy. I'll explain it to you.
I think there's a tinge of jealousy because people.
Kyle Shanahan makes it look very easy and does a lot of winning
with average to below average quarterbacks in people's minds. Jimmy Garoppolo, Brock
Purdy, why can't I have a coach like that? That guy is not that good. That coach, that
system makes him good and that frustrates a lot of people.
It's this thing we're doing with quarterbacks and I think Purdy is the perfect example of
it because you can
have a circular argument about like, but Shanahan, but the 49ers, but Perti,
but Garoppolo, but Trey Lentz, and then you end up back at Brock Perti doing a
really good job on a team where, yeah, like we're giving him credit, we're not
giving credit when they win, but when they lose it's because he played bad,
like what, you know, half of the Packers game last week, and so you just end up
back where we started
every time a conversation starts about him
because no one knows really how to discuss the fact
that like he's very good, he's doing a job that's very hard.
And for the most part, he's doing it really well
and the things that he's excels at, not everyone can do.
However, he's not doing the things that we can just look at
and be like, wow, like look at that throw by Patrick Mahomes.
That was insane, no one else can do that.
Or look at that run by Josh Allen,
like how does he steamroll defenders like that?
And he just ends up in this weird place
where we just don't know how to talk about it.
There's just no pleasing people for him.
He was getting mocked for his outfit yesterday.
And like, I think we have a shot of it.
It's a totally fine outfit he's wearing yesterday
and just eviscerated.
If this is bad, I have no shot at life.
If we're gonna make fun of for this,
what's wrong with this?
It's not that it looks bad,
but it does look like he is headed at five in the morning
to his crew meet at Oxford.
Like, then it doesn't.
It's a quarter zip,
just to describe it to people now watching.
It's a blue quarter zip,
but then he's got like a warm shade shacket on
with big pockets.
It's a little bit of a, I guess,
I get what they're saying for it. To me, this is just, don't comment on it. It's a little bit of a, I guess I, I guess what they're saying for it.
To me this is just like, this is a non,
this is just, don't comment on it.
It's not great fashion, but it's not terrible.
Like to me, that outfit is just,
nobody should say anything about it.
Just let him live his life.
It's Brock Purdy.
But if this is getting mocked,
there's nothing he can do.
No, but it's like the blue and the tan thing don't go,
oh shit, that's what I'm wearing today.
I am stunned at the discourse around him him primarily because there is a discourse around him
You couldn't find a more unassuming looking or acting person to have such such passion behind the debates where I think we can all agree
It's really cool. Mr. Irrelevant got to a Super Bowl this early in his career
But the Lions would have been cooler, I think.
But it started like midway through the season
when the MVP conversation, I think,
is what really like wrinkled a lot of people.
The fact that he was part of that conversation at all,
even though a lot of times by default,
like the quarterback from the best team in the NFL
gets considered for the MVP.
And at that point in the season,
the 49ers were really standing out in that aspect.
So I think that's kind of where it all started.
But also like I think this was a little bit of the conversation last year too and as you
saw in the game where he broke his elbow and like in the NFC Championship last game last
year, like that obviously they had to put in their four string quarterback.
So that made a huge difference.
And then he came back from a horrible injury this year
and is still leading his team to the Super Bowl.
And it's like, there's still some weird conversation
to be had about it.
Even like, I'm with Mike.
I kind of want to just be like, cool, good for him.
That's cool.
No, Mike is right.
Mike's on the right side of this.
We should all be celebrating this.
The fact that this guy is headed to the Super Bowl.
He has 44 touchdowns and 15 interceptions in his first two seasons. That's ridiculous.
Interceptions happened on one of the most of huge Monday night
games ever, which is where there was always a weird discourse
around Brock Hardy. And then it just got hyper loud. But I kind
of agree with everybody here, not just scrappy underdog last
pick in the NFL draft,
also bouncing back from an injury.
That is going up against Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl.
And we're not having this great,
it's not leading good morning America.
This is the American Dream personified.
It should be something that is viewed
almost universally as a really cool positive story.
How are the Chiefs underdogs?
It's only two points.
Is Purdy the most gay? Is Purdy the most boring Super Bowl playing quarterback ever?
Stan Humphries, Chris Chandler.
Okay.
Got your ass.
I do think part of the conversation is like,
well if Brock Purdy were on the Chiefs,
like they wouldn't be in the Super Bowl.
And it's like, well he's not.
And his team is in the Super Bowl.
And that's pretty cool.
So what are we doing?
We're just making up hypothetical situations
to like argue against each other.
People are not all about this matchup.
Just what sports is all about, really?
I love it.
Yes it is.
That is what we're doing.
People are not about this matchup,
I guess because they wanted to see LeMore
and they wanted to see the Lions there.
I think because we just had it too.
Like we just watched 49ers Chief Super Bowl.
But it's different now. in terms of roster construction,
you're seeing what happens to a roster
as you systematically have to strip away key pieces
because the quarterbacks contract gets bigger and bigger.
This is a different Chiefs team.
They're all fence, looks a hell of a lot different now.
And you have the other side of the coin the rookie contract we can
we can exploit that inefficiency if we have a guy that wins at this contract that sees him taking
home just over a half a million dollars after taxes we can build this mega team around him
it's two totally different ways to build your team I and when you look at the head coaches
you could not ask for a better matchup.
I just love this Super Bowl and I hate that people
are down on it because they wanted the underdog story
when Brock Purdy is the underdog story.
I feel the way, if I could make a comparison
that maybe some people won't like.
I feel the way about Brock Purdy that I feel about Barbie.
He's doing a good job.
He's done really well.
He's good.
Barbie, good movie. I liked it. I
Don't know if I need to say more than that
I mean no matter what but they're both good
I think and I'm worried about fashion next week when we started this talking about what Brock perty was wearing
That's what I'm saying
And I'm a little bit worried about the circus that is gonna be this cruise fashion shows that everyone's going to be putting on for themselves.
Like I feel like-
You can't just show up like Brock Purdy.
Like I wanna be like Brock Purdy.
Let me just wear something no one can't but no.
Exactly.
But it's gotta be all like a Tony with their style.
I've been planning my outfits for Vegas
for like six or seven weeks.
I'll be wearing this.
You got your outfits planned for Thursday, Friday shows?
His stylist is on it.
I have a lot of concerns in general
about everything Super Bowl related.
Billy was telling me, and I don't know
which one we wanted to root for,
that we were very close to having a Detroit Lions hotel
because Circa, evidently,
has a lot of Detroit Lion connections,
and we were very close to having a huge party atmosphere
where it is that we were independent of anything
that we were doing.
I was told that the owners from Detroit
and is a big Lions fan,
also a big fan of the show I was told
and had the Lions made it to the Super Bowl,
I imagine that that would have been like Lions central
and it would have been a home base for the Lions.
So in early in that game
It looked like wow this is going to be a very rowdy atmosphere for at like an unofficial team hotel
But then the Lions didn't win so can we talk about the fact that me Mina might have drinks them
Do you guys see her tweet? I?
Hate jinx stuff, but please
Tweeted I can't believe we might start and finish the season with Alliance Chiefs game.
So, might, she limped in with the verb might.
Just don't say anything.
Might is a jinx.
You don't say anything.
You don't say anything.
Nothing.
Okay.
But everyone's planning.
Well, she didn't say might.
I didn't tweet it verbatim.
Everyone's planning these fashion shows.
Has anyone looked at what the weather might be?
Because yesterday I saw videos from Stadium Swim and it was a beautiful 70 degree day
and it looked amazing out there.
But people forget that Las Vegas can get cold.
Well, let me ask the question of the group here because this is chief among my concerns
and I've got many of them.
How much, put this on the poll please, Juju, at LeBatard Show, do you trust the 14 day forecast?
Because, I haven't checked since, but 14 days ago,
this is what I saw and it mortified me.
Everything 12 days out is fine.
Then it grows to 40 and 50 degree weather
with 18 and 19 mile per hour winds
and the sun gets covered by clouds
in the 14 day forecast.
But I have no-
Don't look today, because it's supposed to rain.
I have no earthly idea how accurate
the 14 day forecast are.
Whether people make that shit up all the time,
don't worry about it.
It doesn't matter.
It's day to day.
You don't need to, don't pay attention.
There's a cold front coming in.
Allegedly, until it doesn't.
And then, oh, I remember so though.
I think they have an idea through five days,
but once you get to day six, seven, eight, nine, 10,
11, 12, 13, they're guessing.
It's a guessing game.
Day to day is a guessing game.
They have no idea.
Exactly right.
You can throw whatever weather at me.
There is no such thing as a bad day in Vegas.
I was out there for a Skyler Thompson playoff start, start and it was 45 degrees and the wind was howling and I was
at Stadium Swim. I had an amazing time. The internet says a seven day forecast is right
80% of the time. Five day forecast 90% but anything a 10 day or longer is about half
right. Thank you. None of that's true. If you'd like to freeze
with us at Sadie and swim at Circa Hotel February 8th and 9th at 10 a.m. Pacific time by the way We can now gear this towards markets Kansas City, and I know
Sue gots is quite the popular figure among
The 49 are faithful. I should be no they hate you
We're gonna be out there. I'm so fan base. Why would they hate I gave the chiefs the motivation?
They need it. I did circa Las Vegas dot com slash
Lebatard to reserve your tickets now
Don lebatard kiss me where you bruise me
Yes, me on that fleshy part
Really? that fleshy part really yeah really on that fleshy part taste me not touch me
taste me on that fleshy part wow wow Bruce Stugatz I'm talking about the
clitoris now we're out here riffing and I'm gonna try to find it if I can. Wonderful rendition.
This is the Don Lebatar Show with the Stugads.
What could possibly go wrong with a lot of electrical equipment and rain?
Oh, Dan, don't be this guy.
Come on, man.
Don't be this guy.
We're gonna have to scared
Why can't I be scared? There is a dark cloud hanging over this Super Bowl broadcast and its name is Dan LeBatard
Hey, there's no such thing as a bad day in Vegas as I just said you'll still find a way to sweat Let's have fun. There's also pools around. Yeah, so like there's gonna be water there regardless. Let's lean in
I almost rather it be 36 degrees and howling
Let's make a memorable guy. I know that it's gonna be cold because Chris Cody's been texting me asking me like hey
What should I wear? No, I was just like what are you thinking? I just picture her being on top of it with like the temperature
What are you thinking we're gonna get because I'm picture her being on top of it with like the temperature. What do you think we're going to get?
Because I'm looking at the forecast, but it's like,
Jess, what are we going to get for the live show?
Aren't we presently today getting the coldest winter day
we've gotten in South Florida by it being in the low 50s?
Is that not the coldest that it's been in South Florida?
I understand you're wearing shorts, Jessica,
and this is shorts weather for you.
But is this not the coldest South Florida day we've had?
Because I'm assuming that Chris Cody
has things in his closet that don't get used
for years at a time,
that he's gonna be breaking out something
that usually doesn't get worn
because we don't have cold days in South Florida.
No, I bought some stuff
because I'm feeling the pressure from around here
to look stylish.
Just the, everyone.
Tony and Mike Fuente, mystery.
Yeah, what?
Well, Dan also got a stylus, and he establishes the board.
I did not get a stylus.
You might have.
I've never seen you wear a hoodie before.
I mean, what's the big deal?
Today you really melted in.
Your stylus is going to be mad.
One of my brother's hoodies, and my wife is my stylus.
I don't have a stylus.
Oh, so you just confirmed you have a stylist.
She bought me clothes for our anniversary
and for my birthday and for Christmas.
What does she charge you to be your stylist?
Everything.
She gets all of it.
But it dips into the 50s
and we don't have clothes for that down here.
I went on a date.
I wanted to tell you guys about on Saturday that was magical because
does your wife know?
I think at some point when you're married it becomes a date night.
Really?
Yeah, it's not a date.
I'm with Chris.
Yeah, Dan will get the link up.
I had a date night with my wife.
Let's see where it goes not a date. I'm with Chris. Yeah, then we'll get the light. I had a date night with my wife. Let's see where it goes though
Sorry
Dainia is where it went. Oh
That's the look I was expecting really from you Chris Cody comedy show
Yes, you guys do the fun thing where you pick stuff out of a hat like where we going tonight date night. Oh, Daniel
No, we were going to the dania improv and
No, we were going to the Dainia Improv and we left a couple of hours early and when you leave a couple of hours early for Dainia, there's not a lot to do in Dainia.
Just highlight.
They still have that?
Well they have the front end which has been modernized.
You wouldn't recognize it if you went there.
It has, it's a legitimate casino now, but
We were headed over there and we saw on a billboard a
Concert was happening right then that minute as we were driving by and so we're like
All right, this should be funny and that's how Saturday night. I ended up at a concert for
quiet riot nice This should be funny. And that's how Saturday night I ended up at a concert for Quiet Riot. Nice.
Ha ha ha ha.
Celebrating 40 years of metal health.
Ha ha ha ha.
They are old rockers and it's a little hard to explain.
And they brought it and they had great energy
and they were enthusiastic
about being there, but Chris, this was
at the former Dainia Highlight Fronton.
That's where it was in something that felt
like either a banquet hall.
I'll call it an auditorium to be kind,
but it was more of a banquet hall.
And I'm asking you guys, what do you imagine would be,
I don't know how old these guys are,
they just put a picture up on the screen.
That was about 20 years ago,
the picture that they just put up on the screen.
These guys are old rockers.
Again, celebrating 40 years of metal health
is what the celebration of the tour was.
And Mike, you go to concerts all the time,
metal, I would assume, ages more poorly than other kinds
of music with the oldest of rockers, bringing that sort of energy.
I'm going to guess those guys are close to 70.
Yeah.
Well, what tends to not age well is a vocalist.
Anyone that's seen this incarnation of GNR and seen Axl continue to insist on a three and a half hour set,
whereas Voice is taxed by the end.
And because of TikTok, Motley Crew concerts
have also gotten pretty popular,
trying to understand and decipher what Vince Neil
is going to say.
But I haven't seen Quiet Riot.
I do enjoy the Aging Legacy Act.
I think it's great nostalgia.
They don't need to sing well.
We'll
do the singing. So when Come Feel the Noise came on, were you just out your chair feeling the noise?
Unfortunately, we had to leave before that was over.
That's a tough look.
I had to get to the comedy show.
Watching the B-sides for Quiet Riot.
I mean, that's the moment you pull out your lighter, you sing along with the crowd, you sing with the band.
Kevin Dubow, by the way, I think,
is the lead singer of Quiet Riot.
He's 52 years old.
Not as old as you would think.
Oh, that's much younger than I thought he was.
He did not look 52.
Well, they live hard.
Yeah.
Despite the health.
There's a 73-year-old, so I feel like some of these
may be new members of the riot.
Yeah, you always want to look like how many original members are
Are we still doing lighters or cell phone lights?
Put it on the
Chris thank you for bringing that up because the single funniest thing at this show was the crowd
Because I want you to imagine. How do you think?
was the crowd, because I want you to imagine, how do you think?
To Greg Cody's?
How do you, well just know, the person who was
into metal when they were 19 years old,
how do you think the last 40 years have treated that person?
Did you see, speaking of aging bands,
did you see the kid-and-play video that's going around
from this pack's weekend?
It's so good, it's so sad.
Put it on the poll please At LeBatard show. Does
the late does the aging legacy act in rock and roll make you sad? But fine for me video,
please better be careful. We're about to be the legacy aging podcast act. That's right.
We're very close or about there to the 20th anniversary tour. We got a lot of new members.
We got a lot of our final tour. See it our final tour. Milk that thing for a year.
See it in Vegas.
See it in Vegas.
All the seminal moments.
Such hits from our first album that changed your lives such as
Grading 80's songs with Pat Riley.
We're kicking off our five year farewell tour.
We're in our residency era.
You guys better play Cheety Ahana too at the concert. Can you guys in video
get for me that video, Stugat? This will make you feel old. Of Kid, again one of the members
of this act is named, goes by the name Kid. He is no longer a kid and the other one is
Play. Jessica are you even familiar with Kid and Play? I don't know what's happening
right now. I was gonna say, if we're talking about old people
that look older than they are,
we should bring up the Greg Cody illustration.
That's in one of our new little,
oh, they have it here.
Oh, there it is.
They mean Angel Resto.
What did you do to my,
there is a liver spot.
Liver spot, right on the right cheek.
I mean, that is so cruel.
The wiry eyebrows. That looks a
little like my father. We need to show that to Greg tomorrow. You know how
different he looked the last time the Chiefs and Niners played in the
Super Bowl. That shows you how much has happened. Kid is 59 years old. Wait till
I show you this video of Kid
and Play. I don't know what that dance is called Billy. Do you have any idea? It's called the Kid
and Play. Okay. Yeah it's like when you zoom into a meeting even though you're
using a different platform it's always gonna be zooming. That dance move is the
Kid and Play. And Kid and Play are you not I forget which insurance they're
doing a commercial for which probably really annoys whoever came up with that
idea. But there's a commercial that they're in, and the whole thing is it's getting played,
they're having a house party. I forget which one has a really bad die job.
Darrell Bock Video, when you do find that, just put it in the corner of the screen and just leave
it there for people because I know that we didn't warn you that this was coming, so it's going to
take a minute to find and pair parrot against whatever it is that that dance
looked like 30 years ago when they were doing the kid in play but the the reason
that I went Stu gots beyond needing a couple of hours to kill and being in
Daniel where it can be hard to find a couple of hours to kill if you are lactose
intolerant and don't want to go to Jackson's ice cream. That place is good. So good though. Oh my god. Yes. It is wonderful.
Oh I've been to Jackson's. It's worth the risk if you're lactose intolerant. No doubt. Right? Like
that's one that you go you know what I'll deal with the repercussions of this decision. Tommy
Antsitty. Exactly right. Put it on the pole pleaseuju, is if you're lactose intolerant is Jackson's ice cream,
the only thing that's worth the risk.
But the reason Stugans I went is because
I simply was hoping to run into a high school burnout
of mine, any of them from whenever, in the 80s, these people were into quiet riot
because come on, feel the noise was dangerous when you spell it C-U-M. And the crowd at
this thing, Stugatz, because quiet riot themselves, vocalists still bringing it strong, he is
not deteriorated, not that much anyway. But it
was absolutely the crowd that was worth watching because the metal crowd. I'm guessing maybe
Metallica's crowd ages okay here, but if you're a quiet riot, it's a specific kind of crowd.
If you love the hair bands of the 80s, If it's gonna be poison or white snake
or one of these, one of these,
that's not even, those are not even legacy.
Well, poison would be a legacy act, I suppose,
but the white snake doesn't get to be a legacy act,
do they?
Why don't they do?
If they're still out there doing their thing,
white snake, are you kidding?
If you play Xeminal Coconut Creek Casino,
you are a legacy act, my friend.
I feel like Green Day is a legacy act at this point.
No. Put it on the pole.. I feel like Green Day is a legacy act at this point. No!
Put it on the pole.
Is Green Day so old that they're a legacy act already?
1-282?
Yeah, I mean they're still out there getting contemporary airplay on alt rock stations,
but yeah, it's not an insult to say you're a legacy act.
If anything, it's a compliment.
I don't know why people would take exception to that.
I go to a music festival in Daytona every year called Welcome to Rockville,
and occasionally you'll see the cross-section between
alt-metal, new metal from the early 2000s and legacy acts.
I'm watching Judas Priest there and I can't wait to see them.
Two guys, here you go. Watch on the screen here.
These used to be young people.
Kid and play dancing and doing the kid and play dance here
oh my god they're not moving real fast let's see you guys do it look for the
hamster and grab at the end oh one more time stay with it for the pool the
hand me play safe for the pooled hamm. Look at play after when he goes to start singing.
Sly grab here. Wait, hold on. He plays it off.
Little bit.
