Transcript of The Big Suey: THAT SOUNDS GOOD!

Now is a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during an ad, reads like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion. Cuervo. So enjoy the tequila that started it all. Cuervo. Cuervo. The tequila. That invented tequila. Proximo, cuervo. Com. Please drink responsibly. Cuervo.

Welcome to the Big Sui, presented by DraftKings. Why are you listening to this show?

The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Lebitard podcast. I'm sorry, I'm not going to apologize for that.

In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in 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 Man to Nowhere, Fatface, and the Habitual Liar.

This episode of the Dan Lebitard show is presented by DraftKings. Draftkings, the Crown is yours.

Oh, yeah. We welcome in David Samson. Nothing personal with David Samson is the show. You listen to it every day. You catch wherever you get podcasts on DraftKings Network, on YouTube, wherever you find yourself listening to stuff. David We got a lot to get to. The Greatest World Series of all time, all that stuff. I know usually we hold the movie talk to the end, but I did want to include you in this conversation we had right before you came on about The Running Man. Tony just found out that it's a reboot. He asked Should I watch the original one? He didn't know anything about it. He didn't know anything about it. We had to teach him about it. But he asked, Should I watch the original one? Would you, as a movie aficionado, suggest that he wait to watch the old one after he watches the new one or to watch the old one first and then watch the new one?

I'm not going to be that guy because I don't want to turn into my father where I say, The original is always better. You got to start with the original. No, no. I'm new age, man. I'm young now. Forget the original. Go with the new one. Forget the original. It's old. It's 1980 something, like seven. It's so long ago. You probably weren't even alive, so screw it. Just forget Arnold, forget Dick Dawson, and go right to GP.

But I like Arnold, though.

Well, okay, then watch that one first. But don't you mind- It's so good. There's no way this remake. I have a question that I'm asking myself, which is, am I even going to watch this one? It's like me watching Colin Farrell, who I love. But I'm really taking the time to watch Total Recall, and I did, and I regret it. Am I going to take the time to watch Russell Brand in Arthur? Arthur, forget it. I'm a Dudleymore guy, but I did it. And the new ones are never as good as the originals, but I'm old.

Manchurian candidate? The new one was better than the original. It's a good movie.

Dunzel. That is interesting. There are examples, but I think that that one, the original mentoring candidate, is a different even generation than the authors and the total recalls of the world. In that case, I'm with you, where I would always prefer the new ones just because it makes me feel more current. But when they're redoing movies from the '80s, it makes me insane.

David, Christopher Nolan does amazing movies, but would you agree that Tenet is a piece of shit?

No, I think that it just wasn't received well because no one understood it.

Probably a key element to making a movie.

Yeah, I'm with Zaz. Did you understand it?

I did not understand it, but that is not directly correlated to whether I love something because I leave movies often where I have to ask my girlfriend, Hey, what just happened? I don't understand a whole lot of stuff that goes on, and I don't necessarily use that as my sole barometer. I have an appreciation for that movie and what the movie of it, the technical movie of it, without understanding it at all.

I don't agree.

I mean, his explanation was even more confusing than the plot. It's a bad movie. I mean, that's a word salad. It's a bad movie. And what are your thoughts on John David Washington as a performer? I know he had Black Clansmen that was well received, but in terms of stretching his chops, after that, he is a failed leading man, and the box office has spoken on that with finality, I think.

Oh, it may not be finality, but they certainly have spoken. But Mike, I would ask you, do you have to like a piece of art in the Louver to appreciate the fact that it is great art?

I like ambition.

You have to at least understand it.

Yeah, understanding it. It was so convoluted. It was a real Christopher Nolan heat check, I thought. It probably worked against the film's best interest that there wasn't anybody in there because he has such creative power saying, This is way too damn confusing, even for you. I also think they got the lead switched up. I don't think the lead was as charismatic. Maybe if you had a more charismatic lead, people would care about the character more. I ended up caring more about the supporting cast.

Mike, I'm going to tell you right now, this is something I've held for the last maybe five, six, seven years. I used to always, a movie comes out, and then the director Scott comes out. Yeah, show me the version that the studio haters didn't want us to see. So what's a little longer? Give me that Schneider cut. Yeah, give me the raw uncut, right? And now I'm like, Man, the studio was right, man. These guys need editors. They need editors. Otherwise, it's just fever dreams, David.

Yeah, so I never minded seeing things or reading things that I didn't understand and just appreciating the quality of them. Like with poetry, hard for me to understand. Shakespeare, hard to understand, but you're just appreciating what you're reading. As I said, art. Movies are the same for me. I just love... There's a bunch of action sequences, action movies, where I really don't understand what's happening. It doesn't make sense. I can't keep track of characters. There was a recent show I watched, Mobland.

Oh, yeah, Mobland.

I loved it, but I'm not sure that I really remembered which characters were what and who was doing what to who and hating who. But I still appreciated it as a great piece of seeing pierce Brosnan, James Bond, by the way, Zaz, outrage that you've never seen a Bond movie.

I know.

It is stupid. I've no to Good to me, actually. I have no defense. It makes no sense.

I have no defense. It's not like I'm not seeing it because, Oh, I'm not into it. I know I would like them. I know. It's embarrassing. I get it.

I just don't understand the concept of knowing that that's what threw me off in the first hour. When you know you like something and then still don't do it, that is maybe the poorest reflection on going after your own hedonism that I've ever heard.

How about this, Zaz? I'm going to read you a little synopsis of Skyfall for James Bond, Daniel Craig, right? Okay. James Bond's loyalty to M is tested. When her past comes back to haunt her, when MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat no matter how much the personal cost. Come on.

You're all the same. I like that.

That sounds good.

Not all of them are the same, Dave. Not all of them are the same.

I like that. It's the British version of Mission Impossible, right?

Another goated franchise.

Another goated franchise. But also, I walk away sometimes thinking to myself, in your defense, as, What was that movie about? I don't remember. I don't remember what Ghost Protocol was about. Mike will remind me.

He was disavowed. He was disavowed again?

Do you not get that?

Is that the one where Henry Cavill does the cool thing with his fist? No.

One of the great things about Bond movies is that when It makes you realize where you are, what you love, what you don't love. Mod Adams was one of, along with Shannon Tweed, I would say, are the first two examples. I like Shannon Tweed. Well, there was a movie called Hot Dog, the movie. One of the worst movies you'll ever see except it was fantastic. Maud Adams was in a Bond movie called The Octupussy, which was mentioned by Tony early in last hour. And that's a movie you just see because how do you not see it when you're 13 years old? And instead of When in your Haftar, you're watching Maud Adams and trying to figure out how the world works. So I think that Zaz, you have an opportunity to do something with your kids, to open them to a world of greatness. And I think you should start... During COVID, I I've never seen a Marvel movie or a Harry Potter movie, or Lord of the Rings, and I watched them all during COVID. I think you have an opportunity right now during the government shutdown, since you can't fly, I think you have an opportunity to watch every Bond movie with your children.

American Airlines has busses now, by the way.

You know about that auto, pussy?

I do. I don't know if we're talking about the same one, but I know about that.

It's a big story, I mean, especially for you going back and forth. It's an absolute nightmare. Everyone figuring out which are the 40 airports that they're going to cut the flights. The good news is the FAA, the head of the department said, We're doing this proactively. We're not going to react to plane crashes. We're going to try to avoid them by delaying flights and canceling flights right now. I thought that was super nice of him.

10% of flights are getting cut back while this shutdown is going on in anticipation of the increased travel during holiday season, which is right upon us. They're saying, Oh, show up to the airport early. To find out that my flight got canceled?

No, you'll know in advance, but there's one rule that you can learn by watching the West Wing or you can learn just by living, that an air traffic controller strike or a government shutdown, those do not fly, or that's a misuse of that word. Good job, David. Thank you. You can't have that happen during the holiday period. October is generally a slow month for travel, so things aren't insane. But come Thanksgiving, you can bet your keyster that this will be taken care of because the airlines will not in any way accept a reduced schedule during holiday travel.

Do you think it gets resolved? You think the shutdown gets resolved before Thanksgiving?

Yeah, it has to. It absolutely has to.

I thought I read that people think it's going to be back this weekend.

Really?

I think that the pressure is being brought to bear. So how is everyone? Everyone reacts the same way. If it doesn't If it were to affect me, then I don't care. We had election day this week, and the results, Miami was especially horrible about voter turnout, where such a small percentage of people use their right to vote, which makes me insane, obviously. However, I would tell you that it is a very big deal to have a government shutdown only when it starts impacting citizens. And air traffic is one of those things that starts impacting people when they want to see family during the holiday time, Barry.

Zaz, you know about that Specter? A cryptic message from James Bond's past sends him on a trail to uncover the existence of a sinister organization named Specter. With a new threat dawning, Bond learns a terrible truth about the author of his pain at his most recent mission.

Yo, that sounds good. I like that.

It was City of Miami and Hialea, basically local governments that just exist for sports owners to extort.

But still, 20% of eligible voters showing up, I think you'd have to agree, is a number that should be embarrassing to you.

It's also super old people that live in both cities, right? It's not like a massive Miami thing. Kendall doesn't have voting. I love Kendall. My man. I love Kendall.

You should be mayor of I want to be.

Would you consider that?

If they put a zip line at the top of the Elsa? Absolutely.

We will never incorporate.

Thank you.

We will never incorporate. Unincorporated, probably.

Yes. Unless a sports owner comes along and wants to exhort us and promise us the world.

Or the water park at Metro Zoom.

That's big on the docket, then we're willing to listen.

Dan Levatard. We love you. We've got you. We've all got each other. Let's go right now. Stugatz. One, two, three, Brett. One, two, three, Brett.

This is the Dan Levatard show with the Are the tigers really going to deal scuba?

If they're smart, they would.

If they're smart, this guy seems amazing, and he pitch lights out for them. They got it to the playoffs. Why would this be a smart move, getting rid of one of the game's best arms?

Because this is when he's at his most valuable, the year before free agency. And I'm not saying they'll get it right, because it's possible that they'll trade for Miller and Maben, and they won't work out. And it's possible scuba will be an MVP and a Hall of Fame guy. However, you have to maximize your assets And trading players a year too early is way better than trading them a year too late. And you can turn Scouble right now. You can turn them into way more than scuba, especially with pitching injuries that are happening left, right, and center. The ability of pitchers to sign long term. Only a few teams want to do it. Nobody should do it. So that's the whole goal when you've got assets, whether it's stocks, whether it's currency, whether it's players, whatever it is that you're trafficking in, the key is to sell high and buy low. And there is no higher selling than scuba out of Detroit right now.

But aren't they a contender?

Yes.

So why do that? I know it's not-They're going to get Major League pieces.

They're going to get depth. They're going to get an opportunity. They were a scuba had, I would argue, in second straight.

Yamamoto, get out of here. I don't understand. It's counterintuitive to a team that's pretty close.

Well, as I recall, he won Cy Youngs two years ago. I believe he's going to win this year. He's a finalist. He's going to win. That'll be two Cy Youngs in a row and a total of zero World Series, zero lead Championship Series appearances. So in baseball, having a Cy Young winner is amazing. Having a number one starter, hard to find. But guess what? It's time to churn if you're the tigers because you're not going to have a top five payroll. You're not going to be able to sign him long term, very likely. Therefore, maximize what you're going to get from him.

David, in basketball, we see a lot of monkey see monkey do. People see success, and then they try to emulate the success. In baseball, we went through this phase where everyone's like, Starting pitcher doesn't matter. We're just going to have bullpins. Guys are going to pitch four innings, and then we're just going to cycle through. And now the Dodgers came out and they won a World Series, basically on the backs of starting pitching. Do you anticipate a shift in philosophy back to the importance of the starting pitcher?

Well, really, what you're seeing to mean is what the Dodgers did is something called load management, which had never happened in baseball before. Base, there were times when you're playing guys 160 times, Sometimes you had what was called the Sunday lineup. So guys would play six days, but sit the seventh day like they're resting for Shabbat. What the Dodgers did is they went full Billy Epler. They secreted people away on the injured list, and all of a sudden, the pitchers were healthy and ready to roll for October, and they were fresh as tomatoes on the side of the highway. So I think that's what's going to be copied. Baseball is very much a monkey see, monkey do sport. When that started with the shift, that starts with all sorts of things, I think next year, and it's going to be a CBA issue, you are going to see load management all of a sudden become a topic of conversation because that's really what the Dodgers did.

Speaking of CBA, I was fascinated. This is probably about a week ago. You were on the sporting class, and you got a lot of heat for what you talked about the WMBA CBA.

Yeah, people were mad at you.

God, dang, that was crazy. People just don't get it, but that's okay. Go ahead.

This is one of those times I'm like, Yeah, I'm I agree with David. I feel like the WNBA is experiencing this massive explosion in fandom, which is awesome, but it's a fandom that is not familiar with some mechanics of professional sports. And one of them is collective bargaining agreement negotiations. And this idea that they could just walk in, Well, will the man get 50%, we get 50 %. I'm like, That's not how negotiations work. In some way, David, I don't think they understand that the men and women who are negotiating in that boardroom don't care about winning Twitter and threads.

It's a funny thing.

They care about money. It's like, I'm not just going to give you money. Oh, it's a little embarrassing for me every time I open up this app. Are we just cynics, David, or what's happening here?

Well, no. People got angry because they thought that I made up the fact that the women were asking for the same percentage of revenue that the men were I'm looking for, and I got that from the people who are negotiating. Pablo actually came out and tweeted the passage that showed where I got my information from. Here's what I was trying to explain to the people who believe this is the moment for the WMBA and the women who believe the same thing. This is not your moment. Here's what it's your moment to do, not get where the NBA is because you're ignoring the reality of the WMBA's finances. Forget expansion fees, forget Kaylyn Clarke. The reality is the WNBA is not in even remotely close to the same position as the NBA, and therefore, there will not be the same CBA. However, what the women have the ability to do that I would argue the men do not, the women have the opportunity to just leave. Eighty-six % of the players in the W. A. Nba are free agents. Do me a Go join Maverick Carter. Go to Plan B. It may not be called Plan B.

That's the thing for after dating.

That's something else.

I can't believe I just got that wrong. It's called something like Plan B. I don't know why that Second option, Dave.

Second option. David, it doesn't even matter what they go to because you've got the European League, where many of them make the majority of their money. You've got China. You've got theUnrivaled. Unrivaled. You have a a plethora of options that unlike would it happen to the NBA where we'd say those other options don't pay as well, these options all pay better.

I don't understand the whole concept. And you saw a player just today And now, of course, please help me. I forgot the name of the player, and I forgot the name of the league, but it is Maverick Carter's Women's League that he's starting, where she's a former MVP, and she announced that she's going to go play for this league. What the WNBA to decide right now is, and both the players and management is, are we an entity that has the ability to continue to grow and continue on a path which they've never been on? They've never proven that they can be successful, either on the court or off the court. Is this the time where the WMBA says that we can be a going concern, number one, and number two, we can be the best in the world? Because that's That's what Major League Base is. That's what the NFL is. That's what the NBA is. That's what the NHL is. Wmba is not that. And in order to do that, it's more than just paying the players more. It is the question of, is the concept of women's professional basketball, is that the possibility of only having a monopoly of one Major League which pays the most?

And what's proven over the last two and a half decades, no.

The player is Nneka Gumake. She is the sister of Shineo Gumake, who's on ESPN a lot. And Nneka is signed with the... The league is called Project B. Project B.

Project B. So I was thinking Project X, which is another I've never seen a different movie that Zaz hasn't seen. You've never seen Project X?

I've seen that, it's Michael Jordan.

No.

That's the one with Michael B. Jordan?

Matthew Broderick? I thought it was Matthew Broderick, but I could be wrong.

Oh, I'm thinking of a different movie.

That's the thing where Buddy has a house party and then his family.

That's what I'm thinking. What's that movie called? Michael B. Jordan's in that? Yeah. What's that movie called?

Project X. Project X. He's not in that movie. Miles Teller is. Miles Teller is in that movie, yeah.

And Michael B. Jordan.

My man Dax flame is in that movie.

Shout out to him. What am I thinking of? Am I having a moment here?

You're thinking of the Matthew Broderick movie that involves a-Wargames?

No, no. There's a Project X. There's a Project X movie with Matthew Broderick, yes.

Thank you. I feel way better right now.

Speaking of movies, as you know by that, No Time to Die, James Bond has left active service. His peace is short-lived. When Felix Leider, an old friend from the CIA, turns up asking for help, leading Bond into a trail of mysterious villains, armed with dangerous new technology.

I think you're screwing him, Tony. I think you ought to be reading about For Your Eyes Only. You ought to be telling him about Christopher Walkin. You ought to be telling him about Grace Jones.

That's a view to a kill.

Yeah.

That's a great song, too. Durand, Durand?

Durand, Durand, Baby.

What do you know about Durand, Durand?

I know about Duran Duran. You do? Yeah.

Can you name two members of the Duran Duran Band?

Yeah. Duran and Duran. Roberto Duran and Jalen Duran.

But, Tony, tell Roy, just in case.

Just in case what?

In case he doesn't know.

Duran and Duran.

Keep moving. Dude, you put it on the poll. Can you name two members from Duran Duran? Can you name one member of Duran Duran?

This is impossible to believe that no one's going to come up with nick Rodes or Simon Le Bon. Is it really possible? Yes.

I would guess Mike. If I had to bet money, I would say Mike.

Simon Le Bon.

Where's Duran?

Where's Jail Durn? There is no Duran in Duran Duran. What? Then who's Duran? It's just Duran Duran.

It's a false advertising.

A great way to make people believe that you knew all along is just say a name in the tone of Paul Re. Simon Le Bon.

Kevin Durant. Kevin Durant? David, Chris Greer got fired. You believe that it's a move, but it's not the move.

What does that mean?

What does that mean? Thank you for letting me talk about the Dolphins on your non-local hour, because Steven Ross was under so much pressure as an owner, because on this show, I believe I posited that he's the worst owner in the history of South Florida. Really? And that's saying something given where ownership has been in South Florida. He hasn't won one playoff game in the 18 years that he's on the team. Not one. Not But he has created a ton of value using public money, Mike Ryan, plenty of public money that he has used to build his fiefdom out there near Wayne's World with F1 and tennis and all the other stuff he's done. Plenty of public money, even though people don't talk about it. So the team stinks over and over again, poorly spend money, unable to find a way to get something together. What do you do? You have a GM and a coach. Both of them need to go. The coach is lost. You go to his press conferences, you speak to local media who are going there and looking at him and listening to him. The guy sounds like a babbling idiot, and that's what happens when you come off as quirky, when You haven't yet proven whether or not you're great.

Then once you're not great, the quirkiness becomes babbling idiocy, and that's where McDaniel is. The question is, why would you get rid of Greer and not McDaniel? Because you're in the middle of a season where something good might happen? No, the Dolphin season is over. Because you still believe that McDaniel has the locker room? Who cares? It's so overrated. He doesn't have the locker room because they're not winning. My view is you do a clean sweep and you show your fan base that you are going to bring in a Bill Parcells type. You're going to bring in someone and give them total control over all football operations from start to finish, including coach, draughts, everything. The problem is, Steven Ross may be pushing up Dazies. I'm not wishing, but he's not young. And so does he not have time for what is required other than what the dolphins do, which is get mired in mediocrity? Is it possible he doesn't feel he has the time for a complete redo? Because what firing Chris Greer was, was like putting a bandaid on a three-inch, three-deep cut. Don Levatard. Tatas. Stugatz. Tatas. This is the Don Levatard show with the Stugatz.

Tata's. This is the Dan Levatard Show with the Stugats.

We got Mike McDaniel's latest press availability this year. They've beaten us because they've scored more points and done the right football things longer than we have in those games that we lost.

I think that's the measure of a good football team is being able to win, particularly Particularly, there's been a couple of one-score games.

I like sitting right here. As of late. Hold on, let me keep going.

I don't think I want to do this.

You know what I hear? They got to stutter his way to this. Excuse me, man.

No, this is... Play this in get-mo.

I wish you could have them back for the fourth quarter.

No, we can't.

Anticipating that.

We know where it's going. Faded down. I can't do that.

What do you know about good moment?

I was told that that was a seven-minute clip. I can't do it.

You know what he looks like when he's talking right there? He looks like you talking about the Canes the other day. Zero eye contact with anybody. But the head is moving so much.

It's tough. As someone that also is well known across this great land as being a face of a program, Monday was tough.

That was a very tough show. I'll tell you. Can you imagine that? Because that's how he sounds. That's how he sounded from the day he got here. Can you imagine if this, the bad team, was the first couple of years that he was here, as opposed to them doing the winning How do you survive sounding like this?

You don't.

They teach you in law school when you are presenting to the jury or to a judge that it's okay to be silent. And people use uh and um as verbal crutches, and it's unbelievably difficult to listen to. And the coach of the Dolphins is the number one guy with the uh. It's brutal.

I'm curious. Which law school did you go to, David?

I went to Yeshiva University, Cardozo. Benjamin and Cardozo School of Law.

That's not a real school. Benjamin Cardozo is a high school.

It's a high school in New York. It's a high school in New York.

That's what skipped to my little bit. Benjamin Cardozo High School, man.

Shout out to Mike Raper. Tom just said it's not a real law school. Is that you, Mike?

Yeah, it doesn't sound like one.

Okay.

I don't know that fool.

What movie are you reviewing for us today, David?

I went to a theater First time I've been to a theater since-Tenet? Covid, because I needed to see one battle after another.

I mean, don't you want to support movies? You haven't been to a theater since COVID?

I support movies. I spend 1999, and I get movies when they're streaming. I'm going to do it this weekend. I'm going to do plenty of... That is Cardoza School of Law in New York City. You can actually go through, for those of you not watching on the Dan Lebitard YouTube channel, there are tremendously... You can look, I was even chairman of the board of this, but there are amazing rankings of things that we do. Clinics, the Innocence Project with Barry Sheck started there, Mike Ryan. Oh, my bad. That is where DNA is used to clear people unjustly in prison.

I'm sorry. I didn't know Barry Sheck was affiliated with this. You know about that Innocence Project? That is my mistake. Barry Sheck. Just so you know, Enron has a website. Do crazy things these days. Do they? Yeah, there's a fake Enron that's a whole... I was trying to make a point. And the point is.

What are my favorite things? I remember business school, they said, We should have known that they were Crooked because their logo was a Crooked E. I'm like, Oh, shit. It was right in front of us. It was right in front of us. No, but David, you said one battle after another. You saw it in the theater, right?

I did go to a theater, and I was struck by two things. One, I was able to sit through 2 hours and 41 minutes, no phone, no eating, and no talking of any kind, no distraction. It's a long movie. Now, I did purposefully choose a theater that had those seats that reclined. That was important to me because I didn't think I could sit in a regular folding chair for 2 hours and 40 minutes because why? Did they still make those seats?

Yeah, what theaters don't have the stadium seat.

Everyone's got the recliner. Not everybody.

That is not accurate. There's a couple of them out there.

Not in New York, at least. So what this movie did is it got me from the first minute, the opening scene of this movie, and I think people underestimate, you've got three minutes in this day and age, and James Bond is one of the great examples. The opening of James Bond movies, you're done. You're hooked. It is set right before he comes on and shoots the eye blood. You've got yourself an action movie.

Yo, pull it on the spoilers, David. All right, fine.

The spoiler of the intro to a James Bond movie? No, there's no spoilers. So this is a movie that there is some obvious political parts to this movie. It is about a group of people who are trying to create havoc, and they create havoc in illegal ways, and they create havoc due to certain policies that they do not agree with. I am not in favor of people who are willing to sacrifice their freedom because there are better ways to accomplish what you're trying to accomplish. But Leonardo DiCaprio plays the part of someone who gets caught up in doing that are against the law, has to go into hiding, and ends up having to take care of a child. It is a perfectly made movie that has a chance, Amin, to give Paul Thomas Anderson an Oscar. That's how good I think it is now. There's a lot coming out. This is the time of year. This is right now the greatness.

Frankenstein coming out soon?

Right. From now until the end of December, we are about to see some amazing movies in terms of Oscars, getting ready for the March ceremony. However, this movie is going to be nominated for best picture. I believe Leonardo DiCaprio has a very good chance for another Oscar nomination and maybe even an Oscar victory. That's how good he was. But there are a lot of performances left to see. But if you can get past the political side where this day and age people can't get past it because they take a position and then close their ears and close their brain. If you can get past that, the movie itself is phenomenal.

James Bond willingly inserts himself into an assassination plot involving a naive Russian beauty in order to retrieve a Soviet encryption device that was stolen by the evil Specter organization from I would love.

That sounds good. He inserts himself into a couple of things. Hey. I'm James.

Nothing personal with David Samson as the show. Thank you, David, for joining us.

Thank you guys very much.

Awesome. Guys, it's time for me to issue an apology for something I said on these very airwaves this week. Earlier this week... Where's my camera? Right here. Earlier this week... Here's my camera, my one shot. Thank you. There we go. Earlier this week, I said some rude and disparaging remarks about a particular app that swept the nation named Sora. I said it was cheap and poorly done, and none of the videos ever came out good. I thought I provided multiple examples of such cheapitude. Then this morning, I discovered I was wrong because I saw something made on Sora that maybe completely changed my mind. All right, so you guys know about this whole Jalen Brown thing that's been happening, right? Jalen Brown runs into somebody, O'Giannovy, Kijon George, and his hairline rubs off on them. Someone made this on Sorra. This fall, Disney and Pixar present a story about a man who couldn't help to rub off on others. You just get paint on me.

Bro, that's all my jersey. Jalen, maybe it's time to accept who you really are. I don't know if I'm ready for that. Yo, is that hair dye?

Receding. I was wrong. I told you. You guys say Amine never admits when he's wrong. I was wrong?

It happened again last night.

It happened again last night? Yeah.

Celtics at Wizards. Got his hair all over Buddy's jersey.

Hair, I mean.

Well, it's not hair.

He wants you to believe it's hair.

Why? I don't know. First of all, I feel like, first of all, there are a lot of options. I know I'm privy to some of them where it's like they don't rub off. It's not just the regular Beijing. There's stuff that you could put in there and it stays and it's waterproof.

You can get in the pool. He's got that party city. He's got that party city. I don't know what's going on there.

But number two, Jalen Brown, you had a whole summer. Go to Turkey, go to Colombia. Hell, they do it here, albeit way more expensive. You got the money? You got the money. You can make that junk happen, man.

Zaz, you're bald.

You're bald.

Zaz, you ever thought about that? A little turkey trip?

No.

What if someone said, I'm a generous benefactor?

Hold on. Yeah, you did radio for quite some time. I'm sure you got some proposals.

Oh, well, I did stuff one time. I didn't do anything involved with turkey. All right.

What was the thing that you did?

Yeah, what was it called?

What was it? A temporary-Yeah, so you rubbed the shaving cream.

You rubbed the cream on your head. It didn't work.

Well, that's what I'm saying, Zaz.

What was your promo code?

Zaz.

Probably Zaz.

I went to Miami Subs Grill one time and I said Zazlo sent me.

Oh, yeah. I used to have a good Buffalo chicken. There it is.

That's the hair.

Is that right? Look at that right there. Zazlo's Buffalo Chicken, Philly.

529. What a deal.

Yeah, that'd be $20 today. Oh, no. Terrass. It's not our fault. How about that? Look at that sandwich right there. During the photoshoot there, I mean.

Is that a soda, by the way?

I don't know. I didn't drink because I don't drink soda. But during When we were in the photoshoot, we were coming up with all different kinds of ways for me to pose, whatever. They wanted me to hold the sub up like this. I knew. I'm not doing that. We're not doing that.

You knew that Sora would exist one day.

Dangerous game.

Look at you, fresh-faced. Not yet broken by Len Wiener.

Or Mornings.

No, I was doing Mornings at the time.

Zaz, again, generous benefactor comes down and says, Jonathan Zaslow, I would like to fund your hair restoration process.

Would you do that? If someone promised you- Is it a cream or I'm doing one of the operations? We have this new partner. Draftkings comes up to you. We have this new partner here.

My name is the DraftKings.

It's hair restoration. I'll fly you to Turkey.

I'll fly you first class.

You'll come back with a whole new skull.

Five-star hotel. The best dining you've ever had.

I'll be honest with you.

No soda.

I'm totally cool with how I look. I'm totally cool with this.

Yeah, you look great.

Yeah, but what if you had hair?

If you had hair.

Yeah, but you know what? Then I got to explain to everybody. Everybody would be laughing. Oh, you did an operation. Come on.

No one's laughing at that. No. Dude, no one's laughing at these operations. They're just like, Oh, he did it. Everyone's excited.

The code is just be honest with it. Now, Landon Donovan looks ridiculous.

His didn't work.

I mean, have you seen the most recent one?

Well, yeah. Now, he's like, Should I shave it? It's just a system now. He did a whole Instagram series on, I think I should come home and stuff. And all these people, Charlie Davies and all these guys are like, Come on with it. Let's go.

People have been open and honest about it. Joe Buck has been honest about it. I think his hair looks better now than it did before. No one's like, That guy got hair transplants. Why do you try to be cute with him?

No, but I can't just all of a sudden have a head of hair.

Mike, Yes, you can. Hold on, Mike. There's a dividing line. There's the befores and the afters. Joe Buck and these guys all did the old technology that would not look good. Oh, now it's way better. Now it's way better. You look at what, Matthew McConaher or Ryan Ryan Reynolds?

He still says that he hasn't gotten a hair transplant.

Ryan Reynolds?

Ryan Reynolds hasn't come out and said that, but he definitely got one.

What's the guy from Kingsman? What's his name?

Oh, my God.

Taryn Eggerton. Yeah. You know about that Taryn Eggerton? Yeah, I like Kingsman.

You watch Kingsman and not?

Yeah, those movies are good.

It's based on Bond. It's all derivative of James Bond.

So you're telling me I don't need to see Bond? Did you watch Austin Power?

Yes. Did you watch Austin Power? Yes. Did you get the jokes?

Did you get the spoof? I'm realizing now that I probably He didn't get all the jokes.

Look at Landon Donovan.

As long as you're honest, with the rare exception of Landon Donovan, as long as you're open and honest in front with the people on social media, I'm not trying to pull one over on you.

He's honest.

I'm not trying to get one. Yeah, but that one just looks especially ridiculous because we've just known him for so long. He burst on the scene in '02.

I don't support this. I'm going to say this right now.

What don't you support about this?

What he did is because he tried implants. The implants didn't work, so He's doing the hair system, which is basically, you see on the left, he's got the fine bomb. They shave it down, they put glue on the top of his head, and then they take someone else's hair, and they stick it on top, and then they style it.

Isn't that just a piece?

Yeah, but it's glued to the top of your head.

Oh, it's one of those deals.

It's called the system.

Be upfront if you have a system. You're not trying to get one over on folks. That's where you get made fun of.

I definitely would not do that.

That's where you're like Bill Self. That's where you're like... I don't know why I'm afraid to say Ravi does it. Don't do it. There was one moment, there was a video where he had a duck because a foul ball was coming at him. I'm like, this would have been the funniest way to find out.

The hair was still up here, but he's down. So is that Jonathan Zaslow, you will I take up my generous offer.

Do I have to go to Turkey?

It will fly you first class. That's why they say go to Turkey. First class international is not like them chairs you do.

Emirates? I'd like to fly Emirates.

Yes, a little apartment in the sky.

I've never flown Emirates before. I'd like to.

Well, it's fly, fly Emirates.

I'd like to fly Fly Emirates. I'd also like to fly Virgin, but- Haven't done that in a while.

No. You get perks there.

Not with your algo.

I got a good algo.

You were playing Golden Eye, you're a liar.

Yeah, go on.

No, it wasn't. Get out of here. Have you seen Mission Impossible at least? I told you what I was doing. Yes, I've seen all the Mission Impossible. All of them. I don't know. I told you, I like the one where Henry Cavill does the thing with his arm. You didn't even know that was Fall Out. It's called Fall Out.

Now is a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.
