  Speaker 2: You know, they got the top athlete Michael Phelps. How
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: the hell, people, since one is swimming an athletic talent?
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: When did that?
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Curiously, I go by the pool at the y every
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: day and I see little kids swimming. I've even seen
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: a dog swim yep. You know it was on America's
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Funniest Home Videos. But that happened, you know, and it's
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: not special.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: What we're going to do is we're going to give
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: you the real top den. Let's just say, spoiler alert,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: there isn't a single athlete from this stupid list on
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: our list.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know what's also not on a list?
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: A guest for today.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: That's right, That's why it's guaranteed to be what is it,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: Tony flawless show? All right, So let's get right into
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: it with our top story story.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: First, out the gate, NBC getting criticized for what people
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: are calling its embarrassing coverage of the Olympic opening ceremonies,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: specifically because they hired Peyton Manning and Kelly Clarkson to
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: be commentators, even though they had absolutely nothing to add
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: us say and seemed to barely know what was going
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: on or who anybody was.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: But don't it is true.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: I thought it was a totally perfect programming decision, didn't you.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Absolutely?
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: You know, the whole idea is to make you feel
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: like you're at the event, and if I was there,
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: I would have had no idea who anybody was too,
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: Oh what was going on?
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: You know, I would have been just like them looking
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: around and thinking who the are all these people, yep.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: And what's the number one thing you want in an
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: on air host, relatability?
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Relatability. See, I could.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Relate to Kelly Clarkson because I had no idea what
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: the hell was going on.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Either.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: I'm sitting there thinking, why do they keep talking about
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Ariana Grande in Wicked? Am I watching Wicked right now?
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: And also what the hell was Wicked?
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah? I don't even know.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: And I didn't know if I was watching the Olympics,
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: because you know, I thought maybe I might be watching
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: RuPaul's drag Race on Bravo or something.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, very confusing. And another thing that was very confusing.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: You see this the French basketball fan booing Joel Embiid
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: because he chose to play for USA Basketball instead of France,
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: even though France gave him citizenship status a couple of
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: years ago for some reason. Now, first of all, Joel
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Embiid is from Cameroon, which is well somewhere not in France.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: And also, Joel Embiid is now clearly an American, right, don'ty.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Joel Embiid has zero to do with France.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: He wears the red, white, and blue, which are the
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: colors of the American flag. He plays for the seventy sixes,
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: which is so American that it's named after the year
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: the Constitution was signed. He's as American as the Statue
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: of Liberty. So when you try to tell us that
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: he's not, what.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Are you doing? Interruption? Why are you interrupting?
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: What?
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Red, white, and blue are also the colors of the
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: French flag. The Statue of Liberty was a gift from
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: France in seventeen seventy six, was the year the Declaration
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: of Independence was signed, not the Constitution. Did you fail
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: fourth grade? No, you're a grade grade. A douchebag.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Oh there you go, see a douchebag that's from France.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: You are more French than joel Le.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Anyway, all right, let's keep going at Tony. Oh, you
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: see this ridiculous.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: The Canadian soccer team under fire for using drones to
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: video other teams practices, and now they're being panalized and whatnot. Tony,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: I don't see what the problem here is, do you.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Not at all?
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: I mean, if a team has another team spying on them, well,
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: shouldn't that team do a better job of hiding their practices?
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: I mean, when armies prepare for war. Do they go
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: practice in the stadium next to the other army. No, no,
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: of course not. They go to an undisclosed location in
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: the desert. You know, maybe these soccer teams need to
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: start practicing in the desert.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: That's a great point, Tony.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: You know, I always wondered how these countries like Iraq
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: and Iran could be so good at soccer.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: And you know, then it hit me. They practice in
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: a desert.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: They basically live in an undisclosed location, which is great
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: for war.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: And soccer, I guess, exactly. Just so smart on their part.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: And by the way, Donny, they're accusing this Canadian soccer
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: team of stealing plays. I was under the impression, like
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: most people, that soccer didn't have plays.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: I thought they were just you know, running up and
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: down the field. Exactly. Isn't every play just kick the ball? Yeah,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: that's what I thought. Anyway, let's just move on from
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: the Olympics. Enough.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Already all controversy out of the NFL as the league
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: announced that in game interviews with coaches will now be mandatory. Now, people,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: they're unhappy with this new policy, and you know, frankly,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: we are tooth Tony because we think the league isn't
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: going far enough.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, tell him your idea, don't you had a
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: great idea.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: Instead of in game into views they do in play interviews.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: Think about it. Patrick Mahomes goes back to pass and
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: Melissa Stark gets on the headset and says, Patrick, you
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: just drop back. Tell us what you're seeing from the
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: defense and way you're thinking of throwing the ball. See,
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: you'd get that in game perspective. That would really bring
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: the audience one step closer.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: To the action.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: Such a great idea, Dody, And you could see this
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: working on defense, soh you know you're watching it. Jalen
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Ramsey grabs an interception, and you know, Melissa Stark gets
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: on the headset and says, Jalen, all right, you just
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: made that interception. You're gonna go up the left side.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: You're gonna go up the right side. So you get
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: that in the moment analysis.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: I don't want to get too carried away here, but
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: this might be the best idea in sports television since
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: the blue pucking hockey.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: I don't want to get garried away either. I think
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: you may be right anyway. Yeah, you know who's always right?
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Downy the paper who shop at our merch star and
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: that's why. Word, we're gonna tell you July thirty first
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: through August fifth, you can get twenty percent off everything
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: in our merch store. That's hats, shirts, mouse pads, all
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: with our show logo. And also he can get everybody's
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: favorite shirt, the one with us stupid producer's face on
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: a DNA or.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: I already emailed the company and asked them to take
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: it down.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well, you know what's never gonna go down,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: a woman on you. Oh got him? You're done, now shutout,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: shut up?
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Anyway, Yeah, we got enough, Yeah, bigger event to talk
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: about it, Tony. You know, ESPN and TOTI released its
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: stupid list of the top one hundred athletes and steal thousands,
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: So put up that terrible list. Here, look at this,
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Michael Phelps number one, number two, Serena Williams number three,
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: Lionel messigarbage. Well, doesn't even need to memorize a single
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: soccer players.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: We just exactly.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Then it's Lebron, Tom Brady and ninety or more people.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: By the way, that's too many people. Yeah, it's like
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: a punt anticipation trophy list. Everybody. How do you have
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: How can it be a list if everybody's on, It
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense totally anyway. All right, right now

• 8:30
  Speaker 2: of the great Olympic legends of all time, Oscar Pastorius.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the blade running. Now, we would have had him ayer.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: But you know, due to the fact that he murdered
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: his girlfriend, we had to take him down a few notches,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: just you know, deduct a few points.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: But you know how to do it.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Let's face it, people, if you had no legs and
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: lived in South Africa, you too would be running around
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: with unuzi all the time.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: So you know, we did what was fair.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: We put him at number ten just to avoid the controversy.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: Right, you'rep smart move, but it had to be done.

  Speaker 2: Jose, you know, for years nobody Tony could then nobody
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: could figure out how all these players were hitting so
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: many home runs.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: No, nobody had any any idea.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: No they you know, they just thought Sammy so so was,
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: you know, eat more protein bars, yeah, taking care of
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: his body in healthy And then you know, Jose Canseko
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: came along and said, nah ah ah, no, it's all steroids,
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: and that opened people's eyes.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Just changed the game and the world forever.
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: And might I add a baseball once bounced off his
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: head for a home run, so you know, you have
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: to consider the entertainment value in that tool.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Great point, just a great point, Tony.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: And well here we are moving up the list now
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: halfway through our top ten athletes since two thousands. This
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: man just a football great, Tony. You know when your
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: talk production. You have to talk production on and off
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: the field, and that's why we're going with Tyreek Hill.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: Of course, have nobody has been more.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Productive and reproductive troll and Tyreek Hill creating just so
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: many human beings, more than even that Mongolian guy what
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: was his name, Tony uh Shaka Khan yep right, and
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: not since the great Chaka Khan fathered so many children
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: have we seen production like this and Tyreek Kill just
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: single handedly ensuring that the twenty forty seven NFL draft
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: will truly be something to behold in the terms of
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: the receiver class there.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: In the speed, yep right class, Tyreek Hill.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: There you go, all right, Number four, Tony, easy choice
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: here Alan Iverson again.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: No explanation, there's nothing else to say. There you go,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: all right at number three.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: You know ESPN those idiots put Tom Brady on this
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: list in that top ten. No, not so still the
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: wrong guy, wrong Patriots quarterback. If you want to see
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: someone who showed true leadership, and no further than Jimmy
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: garoppolog one night bravely and openly went to dinner in
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Beverly Hills with an adult film star, Kiara Miya, even
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: though he was under contract with the San Francisco forty nine.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Is now, Wow, this is leadership.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: Because most whimpy quarterbacks, they'd hide this, not even do it.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: Scano probably just load up poor hub and just look
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: at pictures of her. But no, Jimmy G in broad
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: daylight did what every man should have done in his shoes,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: and that is true bravery, true leadership.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Jimmy hats off, Jimmy G.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: All Right, that number two, the most dominant athlete of
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: his time in his sport. Of course, we're talking about
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: none other than.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Lance Lance Armstrong.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: In a sport where everyone was taking steroids, Lance Armstrong
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: out steroided them all.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: In a time when everyone was on the juice, he
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: out drew them all.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: When we talk about Tony what an athlete has in them, well,
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: nobody had more in them in terms of you know,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: antioxidants and dioxiens and whatnot than Lance Armstrong.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: And people say, just coming within five feet of him
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: would make the average human fail a drug test, but
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: also gained ten pounds of muscle.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: And that leads us to number one.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Tony Well, certainly no debate here, obviously the single greatest
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: athlete of the century.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: And all time, Nick, Nick falls and there you go.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: You look at our list.

  Speaker 2: That's how you build a list. Here take no, yeah, anyway, Tony,
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: that's how you build a show. See that was perfect.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Wowow, great job your guest just perfect perfect. Once we
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: run around, mind you'll go to our merchan Yeah, and
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: are you kidding me? It was flawless? What are you doing?
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: No corrections? What what you call the Mongolian conquer Shaka Khan?
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Bro, yeah, read a history book, bro.
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: It was Genghis Khan? Who is the Mongolian conquer? Shaka
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: Khan is a singer.

• 15:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah bro, yeah, bro, they're not married, they're just partners.
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: It would have taken you like two seconds to look
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: that up.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Well I'm gonna take you on a boat
• 15:59
