Welcome to the big sweet. Presented by DraftKings.

00:01:01

Why are you listening to this show?

00:01:03

The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Lebedard podcast.

00:01:06

I'm sorry. I'm not gonna apologize for that.

00:01:08

In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging.

00:01:12

I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries that if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys?

00:01:20

I've done it.

00:01:21

And now here's the marching man to nowhere, fat face, and the habitual liar.

00:01:26

Today's episode is sponsored by DraftKings. Stay tuned because you'll hear more about DraftKings and all it has to offer throughout the show. DraftKings, the crown is yours.

00:02:08

State sucks drama. You lost. That's the deal. The video clearly shows with my eye almost blinded. This hairy and loose in laughing.

00:03:05

I've got a shameful confession, a couple of them around this song. 1, I I can't tell what some of the lyrics are, which hurts me because, I am so moved, with that song that I will tell you. I have not felt music like that in about 5 years where it just really reaches me, her pain of, like, oh, no. Why did they pepper spray Rose? And in the back row, I'm looking at Lucy, and she's gazing at the heavens with a radiant smile on her face at her friend being pepper sprayed.

00:03:40

It was funny. And, look, Rose was in pain for about 10 minutes, and then it was just funny. I I think Rose is a phenomenal singer. However, I've become used to it because she sings all the time. And I don't actually love that because we'll be in the car, I'll be playing music, and Rose will be singing a completely different song than what we're listening to in the car.

00:04:04

She will be singing a different song.

00:04:07

Okay.

00:04:07

Usually, Florence and the Machine, and we have to say, hey, Rose. Can you stop?

00:04:12

Alright. Lucy, let me, help me right now produce a live, what I'm trying to do here, a live radio and television moment. Okay? Help me do this. Produce this segment with me because, I've got Rose out here.

00:04:25

We're we're a bit of a gorilla outfit. Okay? We're we're telling Ricky Williams yesterday that he's gotta rain down holy hell on the University of Texas so that you can get into a game.

00:04:35

We got You said that. I didn't say that.

00:04:36

Well, I know. I said that. We got Cuban Santa over at Flanagan's over here, and he might steal your toys. He might take your gift cards. He wants your cash.

00:04:43

I don't think we're doing this legally or well so far, and I don't trust the technology, and his mustache and beard don't work right. But Rose is holding the camera, and he's in front of the camera. Can we flip flop them so I can ask Rose some questions here? And we're trying to do a toy drive at Flanagan's. We're trying to get people out there in the next couple of hours.

00:05:03

Can I talk to Rose, Lucy, and try to make you giggle? Oh, thank you. This is gonna be so good. So, Lucy, here's happy. Look how happy.

00:05:12

Okay. Yes. Please. Just I I want Lucy Cam here. I wanna isolate, please.

00:05:16

Give me all Lucy Cam here just as she smiles and looks at Rose because the question I want to ask Rose thank you, Rose, for helping us in production from what I'm imagining is a puddle in a parking lot because this is not the most glamorous Flanagan's, but it's 1 of the legendaries. And, Rose, can you hear me okay?

00:05:34

Oh, yeah. I can hear you.

00:05:36

Okay. Can you say the name, please, of the, famous the Italian name of the person who has been accused of, killing a CEO in the street, over health care symbolism?

00:05:51

Luigi Migliani.

00:05:54

Okay. Nailed it.

00:05:55

That was better.

00:05:56

It was it was better than you were doing yesterday. I think you've been practicing. I think you've been cheating for this moment. Can can can you try again? I want to.

00:06:04

Can you try again?

00:06:09

Can you be worse?

00:06:16

Yes. Yeah.

00:06:17

00:07:52

Luigi Mangione.

00:07:55

Luigi. Luigi Mangione.

00:07:59

That's how you do it.

00:08:01

There you go.

00:08:03

Adrian Wojnarowski. It's kinda

when Sue can't even say it, it's tough. Right?

00:08:09

Adrian this Adrian wins for say it again? Sorry.

00:08:14

Adrian Wojnarowski, I think.

00:08:18

Adrian Wojnarowski.

00:08:21

Yeah. This is fun. She has an accent.

00:08:25

She has an accent.

00:08:26

That's the game we're playing right on the line. Yeah. That is the game right on that way. And bring us your toys.

00:08:32

At least we're being subtle with it, though. Yeah. That's where we earn the points.

00:08:34

Rose, hand the microphone to Cuban Santa Claus over there. Bring him your cash, your gift cards, and your gifts for toys, your your toys for kids.

00:08:42

In 40 talking.

00:08:43

In 45 minutes, though, when they open.

00:08:45

Yes. So, Tony, take tell people to come on out. This is an old style radio. Stegot, do you remember when we used to do that?

00:08:52

Oh, I love them.

00:08:52

Yes. It's a radio remote in the streets of Miami. Gather around Miami. We're asking for your toys. Come meet Cuban Santa Tony.

00:09:00

Today, we are at the Flanagan's in Coconut Grove, the famous 1. The I'm I don't there it is. Look at that. Look at that. Tony's top 5.

00:09:10

Rose, get behind the camera. Tony's top 5. We're going we're going live. So we got toy drive and live content that Mike Schur was making fun of yesterday. Man, that's a high compliment, guys.

00:09:22

We skip past those around here. Mike Shur knows of Tony's top 5, and he thinks it's ridiculous that Tony's top 5 has such basic observations. And I accused Mike Shur of not getting the show.

00:09:37

Right.

00:09:40

I accused Mike Schur. He was insulted. Mike Schur, a comedy genius, a giant. He did not get the show because, of course, Tony's top 5 are the most obvious things. Of course.

00:09:51

He's at a Flanagan's parking lot. He's got it's around puddles. He's asking for toys, and he's giving you Those are puddles of pee. No. Come on.

00:10:01

Dad, I am telling you. I love Flanagan. You're doing a good thing. It's a toy drive. Bring your toys for your guests.

00:10:06

Bring everything you have.

00:10:08

Okay? No.

00:10:08

And then

00:10:08

Rose just unplugged the deck the decorative thing behind Tony by mistake.

00:10:12

I have spent so many nights

00:10:14

in that Flanagan.

00:10:15

I mean Roche just unplugged something that does not belong to her at Flanagan.

00:10:21

Oh, Jesus.

00:10:22

That's not part of our promotion. That's just us. Look, Flanagan gave us a space in a parking lot. We're collecting toys. Don't make us look like fools.

00:10:29

Go support Tony. Get some look. Take our incompetence. Ride it into the sky. If you support this kind of content live on television, capable of falling into a puddle and electrocuting Tony, bring your toys, save Cuban Santa's life.

00:10:45

She's got it, man. She really does. We were trying to force it, and we probably fell on the wrong side of it. And then she's just organically making magic on her own.

00:10:54

No. Look at her. I missed that. I've not seen that as video. I have not seen that since Billy fell off.

00:11:05

Get out of the way. No. Tony, get out of the way.

00:11:08

This is

00:11:09

her segment now.

00:11:09

Tony, get out of the way.

00:11:11

Stay right there.

00:11:11

Get out of the way. Boom. Get out of the way. Boom. Get out of the way.

00:11:12

Boom. Get out of the way. Boom.

00:11:12

Yeah. I can't

00:11:20

see Tony anymore.

00:11:24

Podcasters gotta take our word for this 1.

00:11:27

This is She's my favorite person on the planet. Plug it back in, Rose. No. No. Don't plug it back in, Rose.

00:11:33

You got this.

00:11:34

Oh my gosh.

00:11:36

Oh. This is great.

00:11:39

Alright. Tony can come back.

00:11:40

Alright, Tony. Come on back.

00:11:43

And then she's legitimately pleading for help.

00:11:46

Yeah. She lost her hat too.

00:11:49

Tony, you there? There

00:11:50

we go.

00:11:52

Here. Alright, Tony. Give it to us.

00:11:57

Alright. Walt, Tony's top 5. Where's that? Tony's top 5. Damn.

00:12:03

Thank you. Alright. Tony's top 5 is brought to you by branches.

00:12:07

Yeah. Give give the day a tug game. You're gonna hate that visual.

00:12:12

Untuck it up. You might wanna get up to it. I mean,

00:12:15

you're better now. I'm better now.

00:12:17

Alright. Sorry about that, Tony. We have a lookout for our guy.

00:12:19

We have a Jeremy song we get playing.

00:12:23

Alright. Number 5.

00:12:25

Go ahead, Tony.

00:12:30

It was nice to see the vestiges of the Aaron Rodgers to Davonte Adams connection this week like the ghost of Christmas past.

00:12:37

It

00:12:37

was fun.

00:12:41

I hate them.

00:12:43

Is Dan there? Is he alive?

00:12:44

I I Dan. He's on the floor. He's laughing at Rose. So let's move on to number 4, Tony. So you were excited about Davante Adams, Aaron Rodgers.

00:12:52

They turned back the clock. It made me, want them both

00:12:55

to come back

00:12:55

next year. Yeah.

00:12:58

It was just nice to see, like, oh, that's what it used to look like. Mhmm. That's right. That's what it was supposed to look like. Gotcha.

00:13:03

Okay. Mhmm.

00:13:03

It

00:13:04

was fun. Yep. Number 4, Lions in the bad spot of losing not only the battle, but did they also lose the war? Makes you think a lot of guys got injured during that Bills game. David Montgomery out for the season, couple of the linemen, couple corners.

00:13:20

All of a sudden, that team's not as deep as it used to be.

00:13:23

It's a good loss though, Tom.

00:13:26

It is. It's the loss you want at this time.

00:13:28

He lost, like, 6 guys.

00:13:30

Yeah. But it allows Dan He

00:13:32

lost, like, 6 guys again.

00:13:33

It doesn't matter. Good loss. It allows him to humble his team Yeah. And hit the reset button.

00:13:37

It's the

00:13:37

time to

00:13:37

get hurt too headed into the playoffs.

00:13:39

This isn't when you wanna get hurt.

00:13:41

Yeah. Now you have 3, 4 weeks to

00:13:42

get out. He's about to circle the wagons.

00:13:44

Oh, somebody's out

00:13:45

for the year. Wow. But is

00:13:47

it the full year?

00:13:48

It's never a good time.

00:13:49

There's only there's only 2 weeks

00:13:50

left in the year. So

00:13:52

he he has to he has to have MCL surgery. He's out for, like, 6 months.

00:13:56

I don't well, he can achieve all things through Christ.

00:14:01

Number 3, Tony.

00:14:02

Yes. Yes. But not this 1. Alright. Number 3.

00:14:06

I can't wait for the Chiefs to pull off a Christmas miracle by making Carson Wentz look like the MVP now that Patrick Mahomes is hurt.

00:14:15

Billy has some thoughts on Carson Wentz, and Nick Foles.

00:14:23

That's for later. Billy? We're gonna go

00:14:25

full circle later. He's just laughing to himself about those loves, apparently.

00:14:28

Foles circle. Yeah.

00:14:30

What what were they?

00:14:30

We'll talk about it later. We'll discuss it later. Carson Wentz has a chance to go full circle, but we'll talk about it later. Number 2 tone

00:14:37

circle. Yeah.

00:14:38

Yeah.

00:14:38

No. I like that. Yep. Number 2, you're tucked away in bed. It's Christmas Eve.

00:14:45

It's nighttime, about 11:30, close to midnight. You hear a pitter patter on the roof.

00:14:51

Pitter patter.

00:14:51

You're like, what what could that be? Mhmm. All of a sudden, you kinda sneak out of your wind out of your bedroom. You're walking down the hall. Mhmm.

00:14:59

You hear somebody inside next to the Christmas tree. You hear some toys rattling. You hear something. You're like, could that be? There's no way.

00:15:05

You kinda, like, look over the corner of the wall. Right? The the hallway, you kinda look over, and you see the outline of jolly old Saint Nick, and you're like, oh my god. I can't believe he's real. You kinda take a step over to see, is that really him?

00:15:18

And then he tells you, there's 1 for you right there, kid. Turn around. All of a sudden, a little tiny box right where you were. How did he know you were there? How did he know to put the box there?

00:15:28

All of a sudden, you open up the box. What is it? It's a 40 burger. You look at it. You're like, a 40 burger?

00:15:35

Oh. All of a sudden, Santa turns around. Guess who Santa is? Baker Mayfield.

00:15:42

Oh, wow.

00:15:42

He tells you.

00:15:43

Yeah.

00:15:44

Here come the bucks. It's a long

00:15:48

way to go for a Forte bird.

00:15:49

It was a wordy number 2, Tone. It was. I mean

00:15:51

Pat McAfee says the Bucks can beat anybody.

00:15:54

They can.

00:15:55

They can beat anybody.

00:15:56

Check out that schedule. I mean, the Bucks are going they're gonna go into the playoffs on, like, an 8 game winning streak. They are.

00:16:02

They I mean And they've beaten the lions at full strength.

00:16:04

They've beaten the lions. They've beaten the eagles.

00:16:06

Yep. Good team. Number 1, Tom.

00:16:11

He's he said they're on their way. Number 1, we were talking a couple weeks ago about who's who. Right? Where the Packers are who, when they lost the Lions, who's who? Well, I'm here to tell you, the Whoville population is 6.

00:16:24

There are 6 people, 6 teams in Whoville. Okay? My bad. My beard's getting onto the microphone.

00:16:31

It's okay.

00:16:31

There's 6 6 teams in Whoville right now.

00:16:34

Mhmm.

00:16:35

The Buffalo Bills, residents of Whoville. The Philadelphia Eagles, residents of Whoville. Mhmm. The Detroit Lions, still residents of Whoville. Kansas City Chiefs, residents of Whoville.

00:16:48

Baltimore Ravens, resident of Who's ville. And just sneaking in right under the gun.

00:16:54

Who ville.

00:16:55

Dan? Oh, Dan, you're there?

00:16:56

Yeah. Well, Tony, see, I here here's the thing, Tony. I'm sorry. I'm I'm so sorry. This has never happened before in the history of the show, not in 20 years.

00:17:05

Whoville? I have never before seen a segment stolen so effortlessly from someone as Rose just stole this segment from you. Rose just what what was happening behind you is the funniest thing this show has ever done.

00:17:25

Damn, we dug ourselves out of that awkwardness. Yeah. And we're giving Tony a shine. Yeah. Not to throw it back in his face and have a spiral.

00:17:32

You just

00:17:32

told the story about Baker Mayfield.

00:17:34

Tell Dan and Freddieburg. Who, Bill? Yeah. Do the whole story again.

00:17:38

Yeah. Do it again. Do it again.

00:17:39

Yeah. Number 2,

00:17:41

Tony. I

00:17:42

think there were 3 all of a sudden.

00:17:43

There's a pitter patter on the roof.

00:17:44

Lou, Lou's

00:17:45

pitter patter. You looked around a wall. We went, we went from, we went from Lucy's roaring with laughter to Tony solo drum act of there's a pitter patter on the wall. And the big joke at the end is baker Mayfield had a 40 burger.

00:17:58

He

00:17:58

did hear it correctly. No. Tony, number 2. And we're

00:18:01

later, we're going full circle.

00:18:02

Yeah.

00:18:03

Full circle.

00:18:04

Full well, that was it, Joe?

00:18:05

Full circle.

00:18:05

That's what

00:18:06

it says.

00:18:06

Yeah. We'll get that later.

00:18:07

I think

00:18:07

I get it. Full circle. Because he got you know, he he didn't get to win the Super Bowl, but Kohl's did. Now it's his turn full circle. I think I think I just ruined it.

00:21:17

It was hard to follow.

00:21:18

Number 2, Tony?

00:21:20

No. I'm not doing that.

00:21:21

What night?

00:21:21

Last resident of Whoville.

00:21:23

Oh, Whoville.

00:21:24

Not doing it. Yeah. Last resident of Whoville, the packers. Woah. Whoville population of 6.

00:21:31

Tony. Whoville, the packers just just snuck under the gun.

00:21:34

They they have that look, Tony. They have that look.

00:21:37

Packers are good. I've got a little future on them on DraftKings sports book.

00:21:40

Oh, wow.

00:21:41

Packers to win the whole thing.

00:21:42

Little bit.

00:21:42

Just a little sprinkling that I had in August, baby. Got a good little price on it.

00:21:47

Okay.

00:21:47

So That Again, your Eagle population

00:21:49

Listen to me.

00:21:50

Bills, Eagles, Lions,

00:21:51

Chase, Packers, Ravens.

00:21:52

Wait. This is if in a god look. Look. I need to aggressively, make draft kings understand in a contract year that if the holidays are not filled with Cuban Santas telling you what to bet on this game from a parking lot outside of a bar. If there if Feldman and the others don't turn this into Tony making some money the next 10 days, as Cuban Santa gives you gambling advice, we will have failed as a company.

00:22:20

We will have failed as a partnership. Tony, make it happen. I want you make it. I want it raining money on Cuban Santa. Cash.

00:22:28

Rose now. Sorry. We've moved on.

00:22:30

Cash and toys. What do you wanna tell people about what they can do here for the next couple of hours, Tony, before we go back out to Rose later to see if she could can pronounce Luigi Mangione?

00:22:42

Absolutely, Dan. 2721 Byrd Avenue. We're here at the Flanagan's in Coconut Grove. We're accepting all toys.

00:22:50

Yes.

00:22:51

We're accepting all toys, unwrapped gift cards for kids that are a little bit older. Bring those. We'll put them right here in this box, and you're supporting an amazing cause with the branches, charity.

00:23:02

Thank you, Tony. It is branches. It is, branchesfl.org if you want to just in a really easy way. I know, I know many of you may not be able to get over to the places we're talking about. Our show is now, you know, on all over the place.

00:23:16

So you but if you wanna help with what it is that we're doing, you can participate with branchesfl.org. If you're local, you can drop off things, unwrapped toys at Corner Coffee here at the Elser, 398 Northeast 5th Street, Monday through Friday, 7 AM to 2 PM. The next couple of days, we're gonna be out at, Vivo, where we were for the watch party.

00:23:38

And that's very convenient because you can just pull up to that, to that location, and it's in a mall. So if you don't have a toy with you, walk in the mall, grab a toy, and bring it to Vivo.

00:23:48

And so we're gonna make this real easy over the next few days. We're trying to do this, you know, in an old style radio remote thing over the next 3 days where we gather somewhere. And if fans of this show, you have a couple of days to gather or wanna just bring us stuff physically, we would love to, relay your happiness to kids during, what can be a tough time.

00:24:08

Tony mentioned 2 teams there, the lions and the bucks. First with the lions, Dan Campbell said after the game, that loss is exactly what we needed.

00:24:16

Okay.

00:24:16

I told you, Dan. I mean, Dan Campbell loves a good loss.

00:24:19

We told you this last week that this was a must lose for both teams and that 1 of them was gonna get adversity of this. And Dan Campbell today on 97.1, the ticket said, quote, this is exactly what we needed. Sometimes you gotta get punched in the mouth and remember what it used to be like Yeah. To really appreciate where you are. Mhmm.

00:24:36

And we'll do that.

00:24:37

Yep. Okay. So, 1 thing I wanted to do, Stegotts, because of what, Billy is doing there and what you guys are doing in general, we have gotten to the point of the season where you really like making the confident statements of knowing something when you say 15 weeks in. Hey. You know what I know?

00:24:54

The Bucks can beat anybody, and the Packers can beat anybody.

00:24:58

Yeah.

00:24:58

That's what I got for you. They can beat anybody. And those are 2 new teams to the they can beat anybody group.

00:25:04

Oh, the Rams too.

00:25:05

Yeah. The Rams too.

00:25:06

That that packers who's who performance actually paved the way for the Rams to host a playoff game and beat anybody.

00:25:13

I actually have my top 5 teams you don't wanna see come playoff time.

00:25:17

In in fairness to Dan, Tony knew that in August. He just didn't tell us.

00:25:20

That's right.

00:25:21

Alright. Tony struggled through that segment. And, Lucy, holy. I mean

00:25:26

I have a tough heart.

00:25:27

What Rose does to make you laugh. I can't believe that that the outtakes aren't filled with things that Rose has done to make you laugh.

00:25:36

Sing it like Jeremy?

00:25:37

That was She's filming. She's holding the camera, so she's I know,

00:25:40

but that was unbelievable what was happening behind Tony that entire segment. I could not have I could not have gotten paid actors to make that look like that.

00:25:50

She is so unintentionally funny. We were at the when we were at the Big 10 championship game, we're watching the game. I look over. Rosa just watching Netflix during the game on her computer. 1 time, Harry and I asked her what her favorite American comedy movie was, and she said Miss Congeniality 2.

00:26:07

Yeah. What? The second 1. She is Wait.

00:26:11

What's in 2? What's 2?

00:26:12

I don't know. You gotta ask Rose. She loves it.

00:26:15

They they could she's like, you're not gonna believe this. We're going back to you. You're going back to another pageant. What? She's like, what?

00:26:21

They ran it back.

00:26:22

I did this once before.

00:26:23

O l I o l I. I have a top 5.

00:26:28

Okay. Alright. That's how you do it. Jeremy teach the man

00:26:32

to I had to do it like that. I

00:26:33

mean Yes. Let's see. I think it'll fall apart. I think that that's as as well as you can do that.

00:26:39

Number 5. Number 5. The Denver bron goes. Yeah. Yes.

00:26:44

So let's see. What's the list?

00:26:46

Top 5 teams you don't wanna see come playoff time.

00:26:48

Okay. Number 4, Stu got storming his way into the segment with a Christmas song to knock Jeremy and Tony out of the way on this is how you do it, kids. Number 4, the rams.

00:27:00

Come on.

00:27:01

Do not wanna see that team come, Christmas time. Just 1 syllable,

00:27:05

I guess it's tough.

00:27:07

I think

00:27:08

Number 3. Number 3.

00:27:10

I think it's gonna fall apart.

00:27:11

The green Bay Packers. Not bad. Not bad.

00:27:15

Number 4 was my favorite. Just Rams.

00:27:18

Rams sports talk. Number 2. Number 2. The Minnesota Viking.

00:27:26

No 1 thinks they're any good. I mean,

00:27:30

why? Number 1. Number 1. The Tampa Bay buccaneer. Yes.

00:27:37

Alright. So it's a different version of the same game set a different way.

00:27:41

Dan, they've won 4 straight. They're gonna win their next 3. If you look at the schedule, it's Dallas, it's Carolina, and the saints. You do not want Baker Mayfield in the 1st round. Baker because some teams like to ease into the playoffs.

00:27:52

Baker doesn't ease into anything.

00:27:54

I mean Okay. I would I would like very much.

00:27:58

I have an important announcement to make.

00:27:59

Oh.

00:28:00

Rose just texted me and said, miss Congeniality 2 is not about going back. It's about Sandra Bullock's character saving her friend who was kidnapped by accident.

00:28:10

What? Obviously. She got me.

00:28:12

The rare.

00:28:13

I haven't seen Miss Congeniality 2. I'm

00:28:17

sorry. So Rose has you, you you got it all wrong? You you were talking a language here. Mike Ryan came in trying to support with with faux fake. You didn't have it right on miscongeniality 2?

00:28:30

I took a guess that they that they decided to repeat the formula, the wildly successful Miss Congeniality 1, and I missed the mark. Well, this I apologize.

00:28:39

Well, I think this is why Lucy was saying the randomness of that being your favorite comedy of all time, like that Jessica's response

00:28:45

comedy. She gets really mad when you say it's her favorite comedy of all time.

00:28:49

Okay. But I saw you 2

00:28:50

You sure there isn't a beauty pageant? Because sister act 2 back in the habit was kinda, like, different but also similar, and that she was still a nun.

00:28:59

I didn't understand why it is that you were showing movies to Rose yesterday, and you were trying to get her to explain things. I was watching you and Rose, and I'm saying, if someone were filming this, this would be a hysterical language barrier moment where Lucy and Rose are trying to enjoy laughter at the same time, but they're not enjoying things at the same time. But Lucy is finding Rose being frustrated by trying to explain why this is funny funny.

00:29:27

Well, so she showed us a clip which was just Sandra Bullock chasing down Dolly Parton, and she was like, this is the funniest thing I've ever seen. And I was like, Rose, this isn't that funny. And then she said, okay. I have a great idea. I'll show you and Jeremy this really funny Spanish TV show, but it doesn't have English subtitles.

00:29:44

And Jeremy and I don't speak Spanish. She said, don't worry. I'll translate it for you. So she showed us the the trailer. She translated the first 5 seconds and then just couldn't stop laughing throughout the rest of the trailer.

00:29:55

So Jeremy, we're like, hey, we don't we have no idea what is happening here or what's going on. But she was like, you you have to be able to tell it's funny. And that's pretty much all my conversations with Rose.

00:30:06

You guys have traversed the language, the I. With an accent, and she is uproariously funny, and now she has replaced Chris Chris Cody in most capable of producing a surprise. This is now 2 times we've gone to her where, she is trying to help out, and everything is funnier than what came before it. She's a natural born star, and she's a singer, and she's collecting toys with Cuban Santa Tony who better have a gambling sponsorship by the end of this segment, or I walk, DraftKings.

00:30:44

Hold on a second. What?

00:30:45

What what happened?

00:30:45

Let's not

00:30:46

pitch our wagon to Tony. Yeah. We're not doing that. Whatever.

00:30:48

I think we need to strap ourselves.

00:30:50

Ended up

00:30:50

out of ESPN.

00:30:51

Cuban Santa. I I think we need I think we need to ride Cuban Santa's top 5 into the sky.

00:30:56

Let's take a vote.

00:30:58

Cuban Santa was gonna be wearing shorts, and we'd see some balls.

00:31:03

I was open. Really?

00:31:04

That's a callback.

00:31:06

Yes. It is. Well, you can't explain that it's a callback.

00:31:08

I

00:31:09

don't want people to think I'm talking about my

00:31:10

Jingle balls. Jingle balls. Jingle

00:31:13

all the way.

00:31:14

I understand. That's a bad spot for you, Jess. That's a bad spot.

00:31:17

That's fine. I did it to myself. Jess. Also, Mike, I'm sorry. I you made a comment about mis congeniality 2, so I thought you'd seen it.

00:31:24

So then I put you on the spot. And then

00:31:25

And he faked it.

00:31:26

I was just, I'm gonna look I'm like a dog with a bone on this 1. There's gotta be some sort of beauty contest.

00:31:31

It's it's called miscongeniality 2, colon, armed and fabulous. Gracie Hunt was never thrilled to have to go undercover as a competitor in a beauty pageant. Now Gracie, who works for the FBI, is dealing with some very public attention thanks to her waltz down the runway. Her overnight celebrity does not impress her new partner Regina King. But their but the pair has to put aside their differences when 1 of Gracie's former beauty queen pals, Heather Burns, turns up missing and the FBI is put on the case.

00:32:03

Yeah. So Rose texted me back and said there is not a beauty pageant because Sandra Bullock became the face of the FBI, so she couldn't go back as a secret agent because she's too famous now.

00:32:15

There has to be a pageant.

00:32:16

There is a pageant. She's in her pageant dress.

00:32:18

Yeah. There has to be a pageant. Maybe she's 1 of the judges at the pageant.

00:32:22

Yeah. Is is 1 of the Take my word for it.

00:32:23

I've seen it several times.

00:32:25

Is is is 1 of the possibilities, Mike, in any of the hypotheticals we're exploring that you might be wrong?

00:32:31

No. Not at all. No. I'm telling you, there's a pageant in this goddamn movie.

00:32:34

It's my favorite American

00:32:36

It's not

00:32:36

a pageant.

00:32:37

There has to be a pageant. Yeah. She's she's in a she's got the whole, like, pageant sash.

00:32:41

But you but you refuse to acknowledge that 1 of the possibilities

00:32:45

I did initially, but now I'm a man, and I'm doubling now. And I'm telling you, there's there is 100% a goddamn pageant in this movie.

00:32:52

Okay. You know what? You've gone now aggressive to lacking confidence. You were cornered by everybody on what your facts were, and you've come out aggressively loud, wrong, and no 1 trusts your information anymore. You've damaged your credibility with, we all saw it.

00:33:06

You were kind of faking your way through that. We all saw it, and we didn't support you on it. We all saw it. We didn't live the lie with you. You.

00:33:13

Rose has texted me that we can do a movie watch day at the office because Mike needs to watch it.

00:33:19

I'll be out

00:33:20

now this week. Yeah.

00:33:21

Let's do that next week.

00:33:22

Yeah. Oh, that's

00:33:22

a good idea.

00:33:23

Do it on 25th. Idea, Billy.

00:33:24

With the following week.

00:33:25

I'm free on 25th.

00:33:26

I'm not. Chiefs Steelers

00:33:27

is gonna ruin my Christmas.

00:33:28

I've basically seen it with how many clips Rose has played me.

00:33:31

Yeah.

00:33:31

I don't know the plot or anything.

00:33:33

So everyone's in the car singing 1 song and she's just doing Florence at the top of her lungs. That's that's insane behavior.

00:33:39

No. It dry shampoo wall, it's either Florence or it's Wicked. Is

00:33:42

she wearing headphones?

00:33:43

Wicked is even worse.

00:33:44

Yeah.

00:33:44

Sometimes she has headphones. For Wicked, she is just always singing Wicked.

00:33:49

Okay. If I may, please, because there were 2 places I really wanted to get here. Okay? But I've been trying to get here for about 10 days. I really just wanted to talk about the bears for a minute because I know Jessica's so stinks.

00:34:04

Yes. Mad at the she's so mad at the bears. And I really do wanna talk as we talk about all the football tough guys. I mean, the Panthers going in last night to Edmonton with a reminder.

00:34:15

Like, that no.

00:34:16

But, I mean, that's a national echo or where you're like, look. I know we're all gonna check back in in the postseason, and it's gonna get ratcheted to another place, But reminding Edmonton on the road, okay. Yeah. You can go 5 goals, but we got 6 for you, including 1 from behind the net. Like, it it was startling to me to watch the juxtaposition of, oh, shit.

00:34:37

The heat just lost to the Pistons, and I don't care. I'm over here. I I'm over here because they got my attention last postseason, and I'm watching, like, I'm watching what feels like playoff hockey because the panthers wanna remind Edmonton, oh, if we see you again if we see you again, you don't get the sport from us just with a good regular season.

00:34:57

Right. It was it was so impressive from this standpoint. They won the cup last year. Edmonton trying to prove something. I believe the panthers were down 42 in that game, and they came back to win at 65.

00:35:09

That's such an impressive win, and they did it in Edmonton.

00:35:12

And Reinhardt with 1 of the best plays, like, stealing the puck on 1 end, taking it the length of the ice, and then putting it. Did it hit off the the Skinner's back?

00:35:20

Yeah. He hit it off of off of Skinner. This is a complete play. Reinhart's a great 2 way player. Doesn't get the attention because he's on the team with Barkoff, who was out, by the way.

00:35:29

Right. And this was such a huge win because the Oilers came in red hot, 5 in a row, scoring over 5 goals a game in that 5, and they flatly don't lose when they score over 5 goals. Panthers haven't been shut out again. The usual part in the calendar where they dip, they go down 2 goals and you think it's over, and then they have this incredible performance, and that is how you fake something without having watched it.

00:35:53

That's amazing.

00:35:54

I definitely didn't give up on that game after they went down 2 goals. Definitely didn't.

00:35:59

The but the reason I The reason I I wanna get back to the bears. But before I do this, because I haven't been able to do this for 10 days, and we've got a room, Stugats, that wants to talk about something. Everybody wants to talk about it, and it is not a conversation that it includes us. And everyone wants to talk about Wicked, and I have failed at any point to talk about Wicked, and Mystery Crate's gonna get it, or there is some valuable Wicked content around how much the people in that shipping container care about. Jeremy's not here.

00:36:29

It's gonna exasperate him that this is the day that he is not here because everybody has wanted to talk about this for about 10 days.

00:36:36

I actually saw it as a wicked virgin. I had never seen the play at all, and I was into it.

00:36:42

That's what people in Boston call virgins.

00:36:44

Yeah.

00:36:47

Wicked. But I

00:36:48

have 1 critique. I have 1 critique. Jeff Goldblum. You're just Jeff Goldblum. Okay?

00:36:54

Woah. Woah.

00:36:54

I hear you. Like, he's the he's

00:36:56

playing mean by that?

00:36:57

He's playing the wizard of Oz, and it's like I I I just see Jeff Goldblum. Like, I I thought that was a bad casting. I just I just anytime he's in a role, I just am looking at Jeff Goldblum. There are plenty of actors like this that they're just

00:37:09

My wife loves him. She's he's 1 of her favorites.

00:37:12

Yeah.

00:37:12

He's a zaddy.

00:37:13

I I know. I'm totally good with the the wizard should be a Jeff Goldblum type. Right. So Jeff Goldblum playing himself. I I didn't have an issue with it, but I get what you're saying, but I also was a wicked virgin going into it.

00:37:24

I I love The Wizard of Oz, but I'd never seen the musical, and I came away blown away by it and that's exactly what movies should be. It felt like a throwback not just because it was a musical, but you had these practical sets being built and it took you to another world without this weird greenish hue of special effects ever clouding everything. It didn't feel like a Marvel movie. It felt like these were things that were rooted in in real tangible things, and I loved it.

00:37:50

Any other wicked virgins around here? That was terrible.

00:37:53

That was terrible.

00:37:54

I haven't

00:37:54

seen the movie yet, but I I did see it on Broadway. And I think that it's absolutely absurd that we're doing this when Jeremy's not here, when he dressed up as Elphaba last week. Like, this is just, like, I understand, like, he's the annoying guy and his character's annoying and we all are annoyed by him, but this is just mean. Now, it's just mean.

00:38:12

I didn't do it on purpose. No. Jessica, wait a minute. I understand. Wait a minute.

00:38:16

It's, like, 17 of his songs today.

00:38:18

Wait a minute. I I understand that you this is the first day in any of the days that everyone has wanted to talk about Vic, Wicked where I have 3 of the 4 people in who wanna talk about Wicked on the same day. I've I your enthusiasm here, we can't produce anything other than that Stu got's wicked bad joke and Chris Cody's bad impersonation there. It seems

00:38:41

So good.

00:38:41

Like the other people in that room know they're wicked more than Chris Cody who's a virgin and is already here to tell us that Jeff Goldblum is overrated as an actor.

00:38:50

Oh, not as an actor. Just in that role.

00:38:51

Very confident to do that.

00:38:53

Why are you assigning the bad joke to me? It was Jess. I mean, I thought it was a funny joke. Yeah.

00:38:57

No. Wicked urgent? It it no. But he

00:38:59

You called it Vicod.

00:39:01

Yes. I did do that.

00:39:02

What they do in Eastern Europe.

00:39:03

Well, Jeremy's got a Michael Vick song over there. Oh, no. So, yes, Michael Song for everything. Mike.

00:39:08

Mike. I guess you can't put my Vic in a box.

00:39:13

Alright. We're reaching now. That's this is not a Christmas.

00:39:16

Did he just send that in?

00:39:18

Yes. Right. He he took because I think he's

00:39:22

verse. But

00:39:25

he

00:39:25

is it is a stretch. I mean

00:39:27

Maybe he's trying to project what we're gonna

00:39:28

talk about. Working really hard to say. He's trying

00:39:31

to get a

00:39:31

record deal. Like, what are we doing?

00:39:33

Because, like, these used to be,

00:39:34

like, funny, like, oh, this person so it used to be Taylor. Like, no 1 could sing. This is a fun like, you're bad at singing. You're trying to get a record deal? What's happening?

00:39:40

We could admit the 201 yesterday was funny. Yeah.

00:39:43

Ken Wing?

00:39:44

I didn't hear it.

00:39:45

Can I

00:39:45

hear it?

00:39:45

I don't even remember that 1.

00:39:46

It was 2

00:39:47

0 1.

00:39:47

So good. I think Rose needs I I think Jeremy wants what Rose now has, which is just a natural organic way of singing in a way that delights us instead of annoys us.

00:39:58

You better watch out. You better just slide. You better not attack or I think you might die. 2, will you please get down? 2, will you please get down?

00:40:14

2, will you please just get

00:40:19

down? Alright. That's enough of that.

00:40:21

8 more minutes.

Episode description

We need to get to Tony's Top 5 while he's dressed as Cuban Santa at our Toy Drive, but Rose is there and she has completely stolen the show. And while we laugh at her remarkable pronunciations, at least we're being subtle. Then, Tony finally gets to his Top 5 full of the ghosts of Christmas past, 40 burgers, and the population of Whoville.
