  Speaker 1: With Stu Gotts and Hawkman.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: So with the podcast Who Got Sometimes I try to
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: do stuff where sometimes just randomly I'll find an old
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: bit and say, hey, let's play that.
• 0:11
  Speaker 3: We'll have some fun.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Other times I try to wrap it around, you know,
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: whatever's going on in the world.
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: There's a couple of things.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Going on that affect sports fans greatly, World Cup obviously,
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: and then you and Taylor the New York Knicks NBA champions.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: So I went in the Levatard Show archives to see
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: what I could find that related to soccer or the
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: New York Knicks.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: I came up woefully short. Well for good reason. Well,
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: I don't think we talked much soccer back in the day.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: For sure.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: When I was involved in the show was what four
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: to like twenty twelve, So I don't think we talked
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: much soccer at all.
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: Right, they gave us no reason to talk about soccer,
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: therefore we did not talk soccer. All I did was
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: blast soccer for many, many years, and of course the
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: Knicks gave us nothing to talk about other than Dan
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: just making fun of the Knicks and how lousy they
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: were for two decades.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Are you on top of the world. I know, Taylor
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: is are you on top of the world with the Knicks?
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: It's pretty cool. We were laughing right before we started
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: this episode that it's.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: Nice for a change to see.
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: Hey, what do other teams have to do in the
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: off season to keep pace with the New York Knicks.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: I mean I love it. Yes, so yes, to answer
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: your question, I'm on top of the world.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Yees.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: It doesn't even feel right.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: So your Taylor was telling me before the podcast started,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: like you're just buying everything. Anything you see Knicks championship
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: related ends up in the cart.
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: Right now, Hawk, I'm buying championship socks. I'm looking at
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: him like, why would I ever need a socks with
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: the Larry O'Brien trump.
• 1:50
  Speaker 6: You never know.
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: But I'm a champion for the rest of my life,
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: and everybody knows one title in New York equals five
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: titles anywhere else. So Jalen Brunson now has five rings
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: to Dwayne Waits three.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: Hocke you will love this.
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: Ariel Hawani was on with us after every single nixt
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: win during the NBA Finals, and after they won, he said,
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: he's just on his phone and he's buying anything that
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: he can buy, including some sort of Nick Snoopy collaboration
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: that he definitely doesn't need.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: He's going to regret it once it lands at his house.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: He did, he got it. He regretted it, but he
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: got everything. He just he spent thousands of dollars on
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Knick's merchandise. You guys talk amongst yourselves. I have a
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: socks story. I'm going to go right next door here
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: and get a pair of stocks that I accident. They
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: accidentally in kind of the heat of the moment, the
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: championship moment that you're feeling, I bought a pair of socks. Now,
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: admittedly I was on Ambient, Yeah, and I did not
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: remember till the socks arrived about a week later that
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: I had actually purchased these things. Really, and much like you,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: I think I had some moments where I said, when
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: am I ever going to wear these?
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: When am I ever going to need these?
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: You still take Ambien?
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: You used to say you hate Ambient. No, Stu Gott
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: said that I said I hated Ambien. Well he did.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: I mean no, I didn't know I'd taken Ambien for
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: twenty years.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: I don't think I've missed a night of ambient for
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: twenty years. Right, so these are heat socks or I mean, no,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: gonna go get them, gonna show you talked about Straff.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: We're gonna be back in thirty seconds.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: And take your time. I mean we could fill thirty seconds.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: I think even on Father's Day Sunday, He's going to
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: get a pair of socks. Right now, Taylor, I have
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: no idea. What do you imagine? So he said in
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: the midst of a championship, Right.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: My guess is inner Miami. Like, think about who's been
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: winning down in South Florida recently. It hasn't been too many.
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: It's either gonna be Miami Hurricane Final four socks.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: Oh, I know, Florida Panther socks. He has panther socks.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: Actually, there has been a lot of winning in South Florida.
• 3:46
  Speaker 7: Now.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: Well, he loves the Panthers, back to back Stanley Cups.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: He loves socks, He loves ambient and so and he
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: does so. He loves ordering things on Ambien because he
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: doesn't remember what it is he ordered. I love getting
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: something where I don't remember that I ordered it, even
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: if it's a lousy thing. I'm like, uh, I ordered this, Huh.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: One of the things on ambient is like, you know,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: a lot of people talk about how they eat late
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: at night on ambient or whatever, but I do do
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: online shopping on ambient. It's just if I get past
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: the zone of falling asleep. So I am the pro
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: taking it if you get past the zone of falling asleep.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: I am the proud owner of a pair of doctor
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Anthony Fauci socks. Wow, special, those are special. Oh my god,
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, geez, these are really special, great looking socks. Yeah,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: I see, Taylor cannot contain himself. Sure what am I gonna.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: Do with these os? With Fauci socks?
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: Hell, let me see those things. There's sharp socks. It
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: doesn't even look like Fauci. I mean talking about how
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: dare you? That's aculas.
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: You could have given us forty thousand guests is together
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: was going to be on the seven and we would
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: have never landed on Fauci socks.
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: My last dress before you came back were Florida panther socks.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: I mean that is correct. How about that Doctor Anthony
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: Fauci socks. I might be the only owner of a
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: pair of these.
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: And listen at the height of covid man. That guy
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: was Michael Jordan.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: He was the Knicks, he was the next he was
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: he was the surprise champion.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he was doctor Jay.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Essentially, it was like some people thought doctor Sarah Burks
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: was going to be the champion, and you know, it
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: was like picking Wemby in the finals. But I ended
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: up being Fauci. But I always think the trophy at
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: the end. Nobody d m me any political bullshit. The
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: story was for Fauci socks. All right, if you can't
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: enjoy the human affair of doctor Fauci socks, keep the
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: keep your comments to yourself. I would like to give
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: those away on the show. Would you be willing to
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: give those away the show? Yes, I absolutely would, but
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: it would have to be.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: A huge contest. People would have to show up in
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: person somewhere. Yes, you don't. Just you don't get on will.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Your Fauci socks. It's not some text to win contest.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: This is a fifty dollars ticket at at Funky Buddha
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: and you have a chance that.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: Now that I'm thinking about it, it seems like a
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: great clothing line Fauci.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Anyway, So I was looking for stuff that was new
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: York Knicks or soccer World Cup related.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: I found only one thing soccer related. Now.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: I know that we interviewed Andre's Kantor a couple of times,
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: but there was nothing like you know, we had him
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: do goal calls.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: But here's one of the things.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Do you remember we were fascinated by gold calls.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: There was a gold call.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: I don't even have it, but it was a It
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: was a soccer announcer and he sang the song Gloria,
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Gloria Glory.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: He did it to a goal call. We were fascinated
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: by it.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: Yes, I love good soccer goal calls because goals happened
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: so and frequently in that sport that you know the
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: announcer is going to give you a good one.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: You know you're not going to do soccer hate during
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: this World Cup?
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Are you?
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: That we advanced out of the group stage. I can't
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: do that.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: I mean we used to do on the show golf hate.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: I mean we used to talk about how golf is
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: not a sport. And I've done a complete one eight
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: on that. I've done a complete one eight on soccer.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Really.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh I love soccer now.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: When Messi got here, I tried to become a sponge
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: a lot of the guys I work with. But then
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: our friend Jim Fravola, you know, he's got AFC Bournemouth
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: in the Premier League. So I went to London, went
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: to Bournemouth. I saw a match at Vitality that was great.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: I've gone to see three messy matches at I haven't
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: been a new stadium, the new one in Miami yet,
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: but all three at Lockhart or what I think was
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: called Chase Stadium last couple of seasons. But no, I've
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: totally tried to immerse myself as much as I can
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: in soccer. But the World Cup for me makes.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: It easy, Like I love that. Of course you're rooting
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: for contract, yes, but I'm.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: Even watching matches that don't have the Americans in it,
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: and I just find it fun.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: It's a fun watch.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: I love the way they do the World Cup, which
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: is there are no matches overlapping, so you got a
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: game to watch for a couple of hours, you'll have
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: an hour break, then the next one comes on.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: I just I love the entire format of Yeah.
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: So anyway, unlike the NCAA tournament, which I love, by
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: the way, but occasionally you're missing it right ending because
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: you're watching four.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: Other games, right.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So the only thing I could really find. We
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: were fascinated for a moment in time with that guy
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: who was making soccer goal calls to Gloria. We had
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: listeners call in with their goal calls, right, and they
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: were trying to do a goal call to a song
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: like that announcer was doing with the song Gloria.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: And here's a little montage of that.
• 8:53
  Speaker 8: Mike, you're on seven ninety O. Chris, you're on seven
• 9:02
  Speaker 8: ninety me go up.
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: Joe, you're on seven ninety.
• 9:11
  Speaker 7: Go go go Cocka go go go go go.
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: Coco, all right, cal.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Ray Gonny honey got from me there.
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: He stare Micah, go.
• 9:29
  Speaker 9: Go go go go go go.
• 9:37
  Speaker 6: George, you're on seven ninety.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: Go go go go go.
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: Carl, You're on seven ninety go.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: No, it's true.
• 10:01
  Speaker 9: Go let go go and go go going going go
• 10:06
  Speaker 9: go go go go go go, Let go let.
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: Go let go go go go.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: That, my friend, is the only soccer related content that
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: I can find from an eight year spam.
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: Yes, of the Levato some great songs there. The listeners
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: were so good. They provided so much, Yes, so much content.
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: My Sharona stood out.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: Mister, that was great.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Mister.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: Were you still.
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: Around when I when I told damn uh that I
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: could save. You know, p ks or pks are very random.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: If you just guess the right way, you can make
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: a save.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: And if I look to the left and kick to
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: my right, I could score a professional goalie.
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: And we set this up with an actual professional goalie.
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: And of course I dailed on it last minute.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: There's you bailed on it. Listen. It's all funny games
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: until you actually have to do it. I mean, there's
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: zero chance because they use their eyes. The goalies use
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: their eyes.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: The guy who's taking the PK uses his eyes like
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: they're reading each other. It is not I mean, there
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: is some randomness to it, but it is not random.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: You would not score one goal against a professional goalie,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: nor would you save one goal against.
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: A professional soccer player.
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: All right, saving, I think you're right on the saves
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: in terms of scoring, though, my ability to look to
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: the right and kick to the left is.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: Only matched and rival by Pele.
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: I am telling you right now, okay, And that's secondly,
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: what you.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Do if you have if you have kids. The only
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: soccer guy I can in if you have five goals.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: If I have five shots, So I kicked one right
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: down in the middle. You know the goalie is going
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: to be guessing left, the right, left, the right, left
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: the right.
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: You just kick one down the middle. Eventually it goes in.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Not zero chance. I'm glad you on the bit. He
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: would add a terrible result.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: I searched New York Knicks. Yeah, in the archives. The
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: only thing I could find was pat Riley being On
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: with Us. It happened to be a funny story, talked
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: about being invited into a marketing meeting when he was
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: the coach of the Knicks. And so here's the only
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: Knicks related material I can find from the Levatard Show
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: again circa two thousand and four to twenty twelve.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: This is it, pat Riley on with you and Dan?
• 12:38
  Speaker 10: Can I tell you a funny story about marketing that
• 12:42
  Speaker 10: I don't know anything about. When I was with the Knicks,
• 12:45
  Speaker 10: I was asked to come into a marketing meeting and
• 12:49
  Speaker 10: they asked me what I thought the theme should be
• 12:51
  Speaker 10: for the team. I'd Patrick and Oakley, and you know
• 12:55
  Speaker 10: Anthony Mason, David McDaniel, you know Derek Harper, Doc rivers,
• 12:59
  Speaker 10: you know, John Starks, you know, we had we had
• 13:01
  Speaker 10: a very very aggressive, sort of primal team. And I said, yeah,
• 13:05
  Speaker 10: take a take a camera, you know, put the camera
• 13:07
  Speaker 10: up in the uh you know, upstairs, you know, in
• 13:10
  Speaker 10: the ceiling, you know, shoot it down on the court
• 13:14
  Speaker 10: on the key area, and then put a chalk line
• 13:17
  Speaker 10: of a dead person in the key area with a
• 13:20
  Speaker 10: number twenty tree on it. And I said, I think
• 13:23
  Speaker 10: people will get the message about what this team is about.
• 13:26
  Speaker 10: And they said, well, we'll think about that. And so
• 13:31
  Speaker 10: they didn't ask me in any more marketing meetings and.
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: Happened to be a great story, right, yes, yes, right.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Uh do you remember what the rotation was at the
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: beginning of the show when we got the rights to
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: the Heat, we had a Heat front office show.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: Do you remember what the rotation was? I know Riley
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: was obviously.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: Right, So we had it was three guests I believe
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: who rotated every week. I'm trying to think here, So
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: we had Rotten was Spoe one of them? I don't
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: think Spoe was the oh, the goat and the coach. Yeah,
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: maybe it was Spo. I thought it was Spoe. I
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: think you're right. I think it was Riley Spoe who
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: was the third. Yeah, Michael McCullough. No, it's not a
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: bad guess.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: It's a good guess. Randy Fund. Oh that's right, Randy Fund. Yes,
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: it was the GM at the time, right.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: You know, I know everybody thinks Dan's the nicest guy
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: in the world. In my professional life, I have never
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: had a boss yell at me as harshly and angrily
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: as Dan did.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: Twice in my life. There were two times.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: And by the way, I've yelled at people before, so
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying it like, oh, this huge revelation.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: The first time that he ever, when I say, laid
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: into me in a way that I couldn't even believe
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: what I was hearing. Yes, it's so unbelievable. It's over
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: Randy Fund. Right, it was over Randy Fund. Do you remember, memory, Yeah,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: you and I were doing the show. Dan was doing
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: PTI or whatever. He was out of town, he was
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: covering something, whatever it was. But whenever he would miss
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: a show, he would usually try to call in from
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: his car at some point just to check in, how
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: are things going or whatever?
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, yes, damn, we're gonna love this.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, calls in I think he's like overseas, but
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: he's like made it a point to call in so
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: he can be part of the show. You know, it's
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: the Dan Lebotard Show, so he doesn't want to miss
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: out on the show. And he's on with us maybe
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: five six minutes. What are you guys talking about? Like
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: was always very casual and it was actually a cool
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: thing to do. And he's like, what are you guys
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: talking about? Oh, we're taking calls on this and we're
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: talking about you know, Jan Pierre had a great game
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: for the mart who knows, you know, or telling him
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: what's going on?
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: And I say, because I think Riley or Fund or
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: whoever would join us. I think it was like Wednesdays
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: at four thirty or something like that. So it's like
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: four to twenty five. Dan's been on with us for
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: five or six minutes, and I say on the air, Dan,
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: we gotta go because we got to take a break.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: Randy Fund is going to join us next now. He
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: hated the fact that Randy Fund was on with us
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: every third week. He only wanted big name guests, so
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: he didn't mind talking to Riley. He would talk to
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Riley every week if he could we had weide on
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: every other week that was part of a different deal,
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: and I guess Spoe or whatever, but he recoiled every
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: third week when.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: Randy Fund had to come on. He was the gens. Well,
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: he didn't recoil, he just flew across seas. I mean,
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: he took a little trip across the pond. He hated it.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: He hated the fact that we were being forced essentially
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: to Randy FUNDI but we had this brand new deal
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: with the heat, right yeah, And so he was upset
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: because we had to get rid of him, if I
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: recall correctly, we had to get rid of But people
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: need to realize when we say this, and Dan needed
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: to realize at the time, we have a contractual obligation
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: to go to that segment that was part of the
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: arrangement of having the heat on our station. You know,
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: he took it in such an offensive manner. So on
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: the air, I say, Dan, we gotta go. Randy Fund
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: is going to join us next, and he's like, oh,
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: all right, we go to break guest line rings. I
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: mean thirty seconds later, and I don't know if it's
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: Mike Ryan or Andy King, whoever, or Dan wants to
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: talk to you.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: So I'm in the back of the studio.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: And when I tell you, he is screaming at me
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: in the on the I mean the top of his lungs.
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: Who the fuck are you to.
• 17:58
  Speaker 11: Kick me off my own fucking show for Randy fucking
• 18:03
  Speaker 11: fund I'll tell you if it's Randy fucking Funds, time
• 18:09
  Speaker 11: not for you to decide, you motherfucker.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: I'm telling you he is. I couldn't believe it, and people.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: In the studio could hear it over the phone because
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: it's you know, it's a landline, it's the studio line.
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: And I'm not exaggerating. I am not exaggerating.
• 18:26
  Speaker 11: Who the fuck do you think you are kicking me
• 18:29
  Speaker 11: off my own fucking show for Randy fucking fund And
• 18:35
  Speaker 11: I was like, I didn't.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Realy like and I really didn't like it.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Was I didn't mean it like I was always happy
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: when Dan called in and made the show easier, because
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: you were just trying to stay on time, trying to
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: stay with the format and we had get tractual obligations
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: to it. Yeah, yeah, like I was just trying to
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: I was just trying to keep to the clock and whatever.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: Like I just didn't it didn't strike me that it
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: was gonna be a big deal.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: I tried to relay it now through my own head.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Yes where because it's my show now in afternoon drive
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: on QAM for over a decade.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: So you go away.
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: So Solero and Shouting are doing the show, right, yeah,
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: and I say, hey, I'll call in, Say like, I'm
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: gonna be in Switzerland, so hey, I'll call in if
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: I get a chance.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Right, So I.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: Call in and they say, hey, Clay Ferrero from Local
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: Tens come up. They put me on for two minutes
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: and they're like, Clay Ferrero's coming out.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: I don't think i'd react, just like I try. I
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: try to be as empathetic as I can in that situation.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: But I don't think I think I would say, oh cool,
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: I'll join in. Or but then again, I like when
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Clay comes on. He had this thing.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: Where he didn't like when Randy Funn came on.
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: So so you have to figure, yeah, that you have
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: an obligation too that yeah, actually like having on.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: I mean I guess that you know obviously what happen
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter.
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: Like your larger point is if it were Clay Ferrero,
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: Will Manso Joshua Pall.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: It doesn't matter, You're gonna be fine. I got like
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: have some scheduled. So yeah, it was but he that
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: and the only other time that he really tore into me, well,
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: there were a couple of times. Uh the remember he
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: walked off the show when we did the freak fake
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: pregame show and we got caught up in the air
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: with two girls one cup. Oh yeah, he didn't know
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: what it was and he's like, just play it on
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: the air and I'm like, Dan.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: You don't want to do this.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: And it was like a and he ended up walking
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: off the show like screaming at me. And then obviously, uh,
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: in the parking lot after my comedy routine, which was
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: my ending on the show, in the parking lot, I
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: mean there to face just like just like you're.
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: A piece of fucking shit.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: Fuck you you have no you know, just crazy talk.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: But that was a culmination of a lot of feelings.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: The Randy Fun one came.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: Out of the lount Like we were best friends in college,
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: we're working together. We knew that there would be some
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: kind of butting heads sometimes just because we both have
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: strong personalities.
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: Yes, that Randy Fun thing, man, I did not seek.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: I didn't even think about it till we just started
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: talking about the uh, the pat Riley story there. But yeah,
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: that was the first time where it was like, holy shit,
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: what just happened.
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: If you were placing future bets on something that would
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: get in the way of, you know, this amazing friend
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: relationship that you and Dan had, h it would have
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: been a billion to one on Randy fund.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: As surprised as you were by my Fauci socks, yes,
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: is as surprised as I was when I picked up
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: the phone. I literally I can remember this day because
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: that had to be like oh oh six, maybe oh seven,
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: maybe earlier.
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: As surprised as you were by the Fauci socks when
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: I picked up the phone, when they were like, Dan
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: wants to talk to you. I legitimately thought it was
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: going to be like, oh, I didn't realize fun was
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: coming up? Do you want me to call back at five?
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Like I thought it was going to be like a
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: super casual whatever, and he just laid it from the
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: moment I said, Hey, who the fuck do you think
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: you are kicking me off my own fucking show.
• 22:19
  Speaker 6: I mean, it was like.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: Wow, I don't think I realized how much he disliked
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: having Randy Fund on the show, right I had with you?
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: Yes, that's just well, maybe he did have something to
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: do with you.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Back to our Knicks celebration, the only other thing I
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: could find Nicks related was a drop that Zach Randolph
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: did for us.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: You do you remember?
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: And this is when he's with the Blazers, by the way,
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: he's not even with the Knicks, but it's the only
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: other Nicks tie in I can find. Do you remember
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: what his drop was? Because we used to have fun
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: playing the Zach Randolph drop.
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: No, it was something like something physical, relent, like he
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: was going to beat the holy hell out of someone.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: I think.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: I remember story, but Zach Randolph around the pool table,
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: beating someone up with a pool ball.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: Here's well, here's how it came out.
• 23:10
  Speaker 12: Zach Randolph from the show pleas to the show.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you're listening to the show. Yes, it had
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: nothing to do with the pool ball, the holy hell
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: out anyone.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: That may have been during the interview with him, but
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: I believe I had asked him to say, you're listening
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: to the Dan Levitard Show. I think you forgot and
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: just said, this is Zach Randolph. You're listening to the
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: show by one more time.
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: It's a great job. Did Zach Randolph from the show
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: pleas to the show? A right, here's the only other
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: thing that I could find.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Now, this isn't even NIX related, it's NBA related. Remember
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: we used to do spelling bees. Oh yeah, of course, yes,
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: So the spelling bees, Dan and Stugotts legitimately did not
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: know what names they were going to have to spell.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: These were obviously of the the spelling Bee that would
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: air on ABC in ESPN. Since we're going down the
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: the spelling bee path here, I would like Tailor to
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: try to spell the last name fund Randy funny, Randy
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: fun Go ahead, Taylor.
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: Pf U n D wow.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: When there was a silent p there had a strong
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: effort by Taylor.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: That's that unc education. Yes, but Hawk is right about this.
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: With a spelling bee, we had no idea what words
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: were coming at us.
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: I just knew it was rigged, that's all.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: So sometimes I may have given Danny easier names than
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: Stu Gott's, but it was really all it was was
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: a device for me to get the big Voice to
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: say silly things that would make Dan and Steugott's laugh
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: because the format was this, and I would tell Dan
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: and Stewgott's before we did the segment, you're gonna ask
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: for the name or the word. Then you're going to
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: ask can I hear it in a sentence? Because I
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: had had the Big Voice say a sentence for all
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: the names.
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: Yes, and To's point, this was the key to the
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: whole bit. It was rated a sentence.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: The bit was after they say can I hear it
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: in a sentence? I was going to try to make
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: them laugh with something that the Big Voice did, and
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: I tried to keep it show related, but they really
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: did not know the names, like it was a legit competition.
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: So here it is. This is the NBA Playoff Spelling.
• 25:34
  Speaker 13: Bee theme for the spelling be NBA players who are
• 25:39
  Speaker 13: still in the playoffs. So there are four teams. If
• 25:43
  Speaker 13: you want to hear what the Spelling Bee sounds like,
• 25:45
  Speaker 13: because it started on ESPN and ABC, it started today, correct, Yeah,
• 25:49
  Speaker 13: So the Spelling Bee these little kids that they torture
• 25:52
  Speaker 13: and they homeschool and they don't let out in public,
• 25:55
  Speaker 13: and they lock them in a cave with dictionaries.
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: That thing started today. It sounds something like this On.
• 26:03
  Speaker 13: ESPN Subride's Soubride's subriden It means wearing or offered with
• 26:10
  Speaker 13: a smile.
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: That sounds right. See it close to the mic for
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: the judges subrid.
• 26:17
  Speaker 13: Okay, so you ready to start? Stegott's I'm ready to go?

• 26:30
  Speaker 13: we get for ste Gotts the first one?

  Speaker 6: Please spell Steve Nash.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: Lar that in a sentence, though.
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: Please, Steve Nash is good, but for him to win
• 26:40
  Speaker 7: an m v P he is racist.
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: S t e v e n A s H Steve

  Speaker 3: Nash s.

  Speaker 1: T e v e n A s H Steve.
• 26:59
  Speaker 6: Gods jumps out to a lead.
• 27:01
  Speaker 13: Usually in these contests, the guy who jumps out to
• 27:04
  Speaker 13: a lead is twenty five and oh when getting the
• 27:06
  Speaker 13: first word.
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: Pressure's on you?
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: Now, Yes, the pressure is on me. The pressure is
• 27:11
  Speaker 6: all on me. What's my word spelled? Jason tery I
• 27:16

  Speaker 7: J j A s O n t e r r
• 27:35

• 27:39
  Speaker 13: Much like a series when the pressure gets ratcheted up
• 27:42
  Speaker 13: after it's all even I've stolen one. I haven't stolen
• 27:46
  Speaker 13: one yet on the road, but now I suspect it'll
• 27:49
  Speaker 13: get harder.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Spells Shaquille O'Neill.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: Need to hear it in a sentence, please.
• 27:55
  Speaker 7: Shaquille O'Neill's dad sits in the stands and booze and

  Speaker 2: Then I said, it was such confidence, Nicholas.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: When I was listening to that, the line that I
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: had big voys do for Gary Payton reminded me of
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: Dan yelling at me, Randy fuck, motherfucking Randy, motherfucking fun
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: bump me off my own mother fucking show. Anyway, that's
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: what we have for soccer and basketball from what I
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: could find for this episode. Uh, all right, you want
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: to do three nicknames to get out of here.
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: I mean, I just gave you a Skita. I'm just
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: I'm just that is that his legit nickname? That's his
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: legit nickname. I remember that. I didn't remember that he
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: was picked fifth overall in the draft. I had him
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: as a second rounder.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: I'll give you credit for that, but now you just
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: got to get too. I'm amazed by Randy fund.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: It's I'm just well, you remember that, don't you think?
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: You were probably on the other side of the studio.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: So I don't know if you've got to hear him
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: yell at me the way that he did, but I
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: know I can't hear like less. Yes, Like I would
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: love to have cameras in the studio from back then
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: because I would love to have seen the look on
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: my face, right, I like, you know you're going to
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: have some fun, Well you fuck up, Like we're just
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: trying to hold the show together because he's not there
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: right and and like all of a sudden, like but
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: I just it was like, you know, again, if you
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: fuck up something and you kind of expect to get
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: yelled at because you know you did something poorly. I'll
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: tell you remember we did we did a movie screening.
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: We had done several movie screenings. One was for Tropic
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: Thunder and it was huge. I mean people were waiting.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: We did it at the High Lea moviec and the
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: line to just get these free tickets to watch Tropic
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: Thunder with us was insane.
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: Had to turn away hundreds of people.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: And then we did one for Rambo was the latest
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: in the Rambo and we gave everybody rambo like bandanas
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: to put on, and we.
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: Had celebrities come out.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: You remember tarall Owens came out, Reagan, Mawia, Dolphins, Draft
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: Diick came out.
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: Like we had people up we did. Do you remember
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: the big failure of a movie screening. I'm still reeling
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: from it, David Samson's movie. David Samson's movie.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: So we had started having Samson on as the movie expert,
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: and we said, these movie screenings have been so successful,
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: let's do one with Samson the movie expert, and you
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: name the movie. Now, we had always done new releases.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: We were getting people in to see new releases before
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: they were open, and we said to Samson, pick any
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: movie your favorite movie, and do you know the movie
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: he picked. I think he picked Let It Ride? Right, Yeah,
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: it was Let It Ride? Or was it The Long Shot?
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: It was a horse racing movie.
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: I thought it was. I think it was Let It Ride.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: The one was pretty good about ourselves, as we were
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: feeling pretty good about ourselves as a show.
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: So we figured we could do this with any one, yep,
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: and with any movie, and we would pack the theater.
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: And so, to Hawk's point, we tried it with Samson.
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: I believe it was Let It Ride. It was a movie,
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: look at a movie, and I just remember hiding behind
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: the curtain with Dan.
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: Yes, we were ashamed of ourselves.
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: So the movie was released in nineteen eighty nine. It
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: was not popular in nineteen eighty nine. It wasn't popular
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety nine. It wasn't popular ever. And Samson,
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: for whatever reason, thought that this movie was one of
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: the funniest, greatest movies of all time. And so we
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: had done these wildly successful movie screenings and we said, Okay,
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: we're gonna do it for Let It Ride. Now, I
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: had to go through all this bullshit to get a
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: screener of Let It Ride, you know, in two thousand
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: and six or seven, from a nineteen eighty nine movie
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: that probably wasn't even available on VHS, right. And then
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: you know, cause the movie theaters back then, like the
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: Hilia movie Code, which is where we did it, they
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: had to get permission from the movie companies whatever. So
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: we do that and we invite people out watch Let
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: It Ride with us and Samson, and we thought we
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: were gonna have a line like Tropic thunder yep, and
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: maybe thirty people showed up. You're being generous, and we
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: really we had been feeling ourselves up until this point.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: We were, you know, the hottest band wherever we toured, everyone.
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: Came out to see us like it was to slam
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: Dunk at.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: This point, and there were and Dan was mortified. Of course,
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: now he had to come out and welcome the crowd
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: that was there, which was about thirty people in a
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: theater of three hundred.
• 41:14
  Speaker 4: Yes, I call a crowd of thirty people in a
• 41:17
  Speaker 4: theater of three hundred humble pie.
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: And he did.
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: I remember him coming out from behind the curtain. There
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: was a curtain, and I remember him just going.
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: Hello, and it was right next to him.
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: There was no obviously no energy in the building. It
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: was really sad. It was humbling, as you say, humble pie.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: It was humbling. No one felt good. Then we had
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: to sit through this shitty fucking movie that Samson had picked.
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: Like it wasn't even like the movie paid off because
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: the movie was terrible. And I happened to love Horse
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: Raising and I like Richard Dreyfus whatever movie Dunk. And
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: then everybody goes home and I get a call at
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: home the next morning, oh boy, and he says, well,
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: how are we going to prevent something like that from
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: happening again? And for me, at this point, like it
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: was over, and I know how we were going to
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: prevent it.
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: We weren't going to be so high in ourselves to.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: Think that anything we did was going to be eaten
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: up by the audience, that whatever we were doing, anyone
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: was going to drop whatever they had planned and come
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: out and see us, And so we needed to make
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: things a little more special. We took it for granted
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: that night. But my answer to Dan wasn't acceptable to him,
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: right because I was casual.
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: It was over and it was done.
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: I said, yeah, we're definitely not going to let something
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: like that happen again. And he was like, well, how
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: what are we going to have in place so that
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: doesn't happen again? And I said, We're not going to
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: take the audience for granted. I mean, we'll do and
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: wrap ourselves around things that are an actual And for
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: whatever reason, he wasn't satisfied. I think he was still
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: smarting from the humble pie that he had eaten the
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: night before. Yes, and he just lit into me, you
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: don't give a shit about what we're doing. You have
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: no plans on how you're gonna how you're gonna prevent
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: this from happening again.
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: It's fucking bullshit with you.
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: And I was like, I'm like, if you want me
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: to have a twenty point written plan on how this
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: is gonna be prevented, I don't have it right now.
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: I've just woken up from last night's nightmare.
• 43:35
  Speaker 4: Yes, I would have given him a single point. Next time,
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: Let's do it without Samson. Bad attendance seems to follow
• 43:44
  Speaker 4: him around. I mean, how about that
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: With Stu Gods and Hockmanton
