Transcript of The Nude Restaurant and The Boner-In Ribeye | Hour 2

You are listening to the Dan Levitan Show in partnership with the DraftKings Sports App, now live in all 50 states.

Forgive me for a second here, just making sure that the social media department hears me loud and clear on not joking about this. So I wanted to get to a story here, and I've made a mistake in waiting 2 hours to do so because Tony told me about this and I still don't believe it. I believe we need to vigorously check this. We need to fact-check it. I believe he's been fooled by the internet. I don't believe that what he's saying is true is about to happen in Hollywood, Florida. Uh, so Tony, go ahead and get out there with this because I just can't believe that this is something that anybody would want to be a part of wandering the earth.

I don't believe that what Tony is going to say has a customer base anywhere in the world.

But go ahead, Tony, a business has popped up in Hollywood, Florida.

Dan, have you heard of the Class Soiree Steakhouse?

I have not.

Okay, so on the first Monday of every month, Class Soiree Steakhouse—

trying to get a little bump?

Exactly right. So doing a new promotion, Dan. For $250 for men, $150 for women, or $300 for a couple, so decent if you're having a nice steakhouse dinner, it's about those prices, you can dress with nothing on. It is a completely nude night at the Class Soiree Steakhouse. You eat in the nude. You lay bare, as Dave Dameshek would say, and have whatever it is that you want on the menu completely yours. Completely yours, Dan. Whatever I want?

I love that the headline says, "Yes, it's legal." We're still looking at the legalities of it, Dan.

We don't really know where that's gonna end up.

The headline does say it's legal.

It's legal, but you know how that goes.

All right, put it on the poll @LebatardShow. Is it legal to eat nude in public? Put that on there. No, no, no, no, it shouldn't be. Also, this is—

to be fair, in private, because you're behind the closed door. But go ahead.

Uh, well, it's, it's in public though.

It's private, but it's a restaurant.

It's all you're paying. You walk in nude though, or no?

You walk in—

it is a private establishment, to Tony's point.

And also, is the chef nude?

The chef is— chef and the staff are not nude. So we actually have a news story from WPLG. Uh, I'd like you to, to— I'd like to introduce you to the chef, Murad Ali. This is him.

Let's do a nude dinner.

The diners? Not so much.

They disrobed pretty much here.

Class Soirée Steakhouse is the talk of the town and social media, not just because of the menu, but for what's not on it. The customers, that is. Clothes? None. Is it shoes and socks off first, or how does it work?

Well, we have a bathroom here.

Murad Ali is the chef and owner. He came up with the once-a-month concept to get new business, to generate some buzz, and Chef Ali says there is a market for this. And if you're saying, what, are you kidding me? What do you want to say to those people who say that?

No, no, no, no.

Please allow people to express themselves at our place.

Legal? We'll go there before we're done here. Do you find yourself staring at people?

No, not at all.

Yeah, right.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

That to me was the last straw there. It's like, do you find yourself staring?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, what, me?

No, no, no, no, no.

I love the journalism. So you start with your shoes and your socks?

The bathroom back there?

I have what I believe to be one of our greatest poll questions ever, which is, is it okay to eat a steak in the nude?

No.

Never mind in public, just at any time. Hot-ass steak.

The sauce is there.

You got a juicy steak.

Oh, my balls! I love a wet sausage. I am telling you that of all the foods, like, I don't think— let's go ahead and do this while we're at it, okay? I don't know who came up with this. No, least want to, not, not most want to eat naked, least want to, because, uh, because a steak is going to be high. It's going to be high on my list of something that is made far less appetizing by the nudity.

So Yeah, like a pho.

I don't want to eat that broth just dripping on you. I don't want to eat spaghetti naked.

Oh, yes.

That might be the highest food.

A little strand of pasta. All of a sudden it's dangling, it's dripping sauce.

What do you want to eat naked?

The pasta.

I just think it's like a short pasta. I'm cool with naked. The spaghetti, because I got to twirl it up.

It's just the red sauce.

Like, it's the messiest of the pastas.

Okay, let's—

like a penne.

That's exactly—

a white tablecloth on that. I'll eat a grill—

I'll eat a grilled cheese naked. That'd be up there in terms of things I'd want to—

handheld stuff is good.

Yeah, clams, mussels.

I want something I can eat with one hand though.

Seafood tower. Bring me, bring me the whole seafood tower.

I want some oysters.

Crack in the crab legs, but they're sharp and you sit on one.

Oh, just wait a minute. Just— I need to slow everything down.

Had to stand up to get this tower, damn.

I need you guys to look up an assortment of things for me because I don't believe that this can be popular or successful.

I don't believe this is appetizing. I don't believe that even as a novelty, this is something that anybody would pay for. I do think it's a good way to get publicity.

You don't trust Chef Ali?

I got to talk to this guy. Glass of wine.

I like, I like that they have couples and then, but also like you might come as a single individual. Hey, let's go. A little more expensive for you though.

Yeah. How about poo poo platter? I'm resisting so many puns right now that I could be saying.

Well, Roy just took one of them, I feel like, and he was dangerously close to another one with penne.

Yeah, that place puts the ass in class, I'll tell you that. Oh boy, I'm going to order their specialty, the boner in ribeye. Seriously. But seriously.

He's in the Catskills.

I'm going to be serious.

He had nowhere else to go after that one.

But seriously.

In all seriousness.

Right?

That place is legal, I'll tell you that right now, because as we've discussed earlier off-air, there is a nude optional bar in Key West that's been there for decades.

Garden of Eden?

Yeah, and just purely for journalistic reasons and out of curiosity, I found myself up there once. Anyway, my wife and I have been to Key West— Thank you, Dan. —for Fantasy Fest. You all know Fantasy Fest. Sure, freaky. It's very loose, it's freaky. Hell yeah. Nudity during Fantasy Fest is, is perfectly allowed. And one time my wife and I are having dinner, not at a fancy restaurant during Fantasy Fest, but at, at a bar-type restaurant, and we're eating and the, the nude guy is walking right past us, like right— it was close quarters, like he's within a foot of our table walking past. That can't be healthful, uh, you know. And, and I worry about You're right about that. That's the only reason I would never go to this nude restaurant.

You suspect that's the only reason that it's a health code violation? That's the only— that's the only reason you would never go?

Well, first of all, it's ridiculously pricey. I'm not going to spend $250 just to get in the door anywhere. But I'm not a prude. I'm more liberal when it comes to that kind of thing. But I just don't think— I think it's got to be a health code violation.

I just put it on the poll as well. @LebatardShow, is eating publicly in a restaurant in the nude a health code violation. Is Matthew Barry—

he's got a bunch of nude people at his Fantasy Fest, is that what I'm understanding?

It's a joke he's making about fantasy football. He doesn't know—

I love a wet sausage.

He doesn't know what the Key West— what Fantasy Fest is.

I did see Matthew Barry nude there once, now that you mention it.

According to Joanne Hussey, a spokesperson of the city of Hollywood, says it's legal because the staff— That's not her real name. What staff? The members of the restaurant working are clothed. So if it was everybody nude, illegal. What is her name? Joanne Hussey.

I'll bet it is.

Spokesperson for the city of Hollywood. Now I have a number of questions. Please look up for me how many such establishments exist in the United States, or in the world for that matter, because I'm promising you that two things I'm not putting together is public dining and public nudity. Like, in terms of two things that I just—

I, I—

and it's I'm not— you're gonna lose my appetite. Hard to do. You know how much I panic around the McRib. You're gonna lose my appetite if you tell me that both I have to eat something in the nude and I'm surrounded by nude diners.

It's distracting. It doesn't seem like it can be legal. It shouldn't be legal. And beyond that, it seems like terrible business. Like, it seems like there's something they're doing on Monday night because they need some publicity. They ain't doing it on Saturday. They ain't doing it on Friday. You want a good steak there?

You can have it on Friday or Saturday clothed.

Or if you go on Tuesday, your ass is going on a seat where there's been a bare ass before you, and I don't want to be on that seat because I don't think you're fumigating your place correctly, and you had a whole bunch of nude people in here the day before, and I don't trust you to not, uh, to not have health code violations if you got a bunch of nudity in here eating steak.

Now I'm picturing like a family in there for a birthday.

Oh no!

No, no, no, no, no, there— Dan, I got a top 5 for you: Top 5 foods I would like to eat in the nude.

Ready? Yeah, sure.

Number 5: buns. No. Number 4: muffins. No. Number 3: clams.

No. Hell yeah.

Number 2: melons. No. And the number one food I'd like to eat In the nude. Tacos. No, no, no, no, no.

Jeremy, please look up for me just in America and the world. Yep.

I've already looked up how many restaurants offer nude dining, which is something I never anticipated using on my work computer.

It's just once a month. It's just the first Monday of the month. On a personal computer.

Actually happened this past Monday, Dan.

Let's see a photo here real quick of Greg Cody at Fantasy Fest so that you guys can enjoy the nude bar.

It looks enough like me where I would appreciate it if you said that it wasn't me.

Greg Cody, Garden of Eden Fantasy Fest, here it is.

Oh boy, right? I love the side by side.

You know it's not me because I've never been an LSU fan, not one day in my life.

Greg just described a very great level of how much did this person look like me. Yeah, enough so that don't say that it's me because people won't believe me.

It looks just like this, this man wearing nothing but a tiger hat and a purple thong with a small tiger over his private parts would be too dressed up for this restaurant on the first Monday of every month. This is Greg Cody being overdressed for their Monday night experience.

One more reason you know it's not me: he doesn't have a beer in his hand. He's got like a soda cup in his hand.

Proof. Dan Levitar! This is the quickest it goes! Hey, this is the quickest it goes! Greg Cody! Everybody, this is the quickest it goes! Yeah! This is the Dan Levitar Show!

Amin, I've wandered too far away from another place where you had a top 5, and we've been 2 hours removed now from all of your Hard Knocks enthusiasm, and we never got to your Hard Knocks-related, uh, top 5. So what do you have for us here? And is it just a clean list, or are there OLI?

Couple of OLIs, Dan. OLI The word pads.

We don't know what this list is. We don't— it's a Hard Knocks list, but we don't know what the list is.

Top 5 takeaways from Hard Knocks Episode 1. The word pads. Pads. The word pads comes up a lot. They have a whole segment where they just keep saying the word pads. Pads. We're pads. Now we're gonna see what happens when we put on pads.

What are your pads?

Like, they just kept saying pads over and over again. Ola! Sam Darnold dropping that ring. Like, it felt scripted, but it was genuine and it was hilarious because it was— it just painted Sam Darnold as exactly who he is, someone who probably shouldn't be in this position. Oli, Derrick Hall's truck, he has a monster truck, Dan, that is so lifted off the ground he has to literally leap down when he gets out. I said, that can't be safe nor covered in your contract. All right, here we go. Number 5. I forgot Kenneth Walker was Super Bowl MVP. Yeah. Might be a different list. Top 5 forgettable Super Bowl MVPs.

Do you know where he is now? Because he signed in the offseason and he signed cheaper than I thought a Super Bowl MVP should go for.

I do know because they mentioned it in the episode, but I'm going to leave it up to everybody else here. Guess.

He didn't sign cheaper. He signed cheaper as well.

There's my hint. Kansas City Chiefs. Wouldn't have known.

Number 4, Cooper Kupp got invited to Travis and Taylor's wedding and he didn't know why. He was like, surely there must be someone that you have a better relationship with than me. Yeah, because I think Sam Donald asked him like, are you— are y'all tight like that? He's like, not really. Number 3, and this is, I quote, from the great Liev Schreiber, a little pee isn't a deal breaker. Oh, we gotta get that sound. Number 2, JSN's Madden rating— Madden rating is 99, and I said underrated. And the number 1 takeaway from Hard Knocks this year, they finally, after 25 years, however long we've been doing Hard Knocks, they finally got the captions to sync with what's happening. Because for years, people would talk and it was like the closed captioning was like it was a live event, like I'm watching a game. But I'm like, you had this for 3 days before, or at least a week before you had to put it out. How are the captions not synced? They finally got it synced. Thank you, HBO.

So you said a number of things here, and I wanted to get to adding to some of the things that you said because we have some video of Travis Kelce making his way to camp that I want to get to. And we also have some video of CeeDee Lamb at camp. And I wanted to get Greg Cody's opinion as a veteran football writer. CeeDee Lamb, a very good, obviously, number 1 receiver. Good as is, is he made any better by the fact that he is practicing here and what he has over his head while he's catching balls, I'm assuming from like a pitching machine of some sort, is he's got on his head a beekeeper's mask. And I— and it's, it's over. It looks like it's over his helmet. So he's wearing a helmet and he's also got a beekeeper's mask. It is the dumbest thing that I have seen in training since I saw basketball players trying to practice around guys with brooms and mops as shot blockers. It's silly and it's fairly useless, but what are your thoughts seeing CeeDee Lamb doing that?

I don't think it's silly or useless. I think it's a wonderful idea. I think it's inventive. I would liken it to a batter using a weighted bat donut for bat speed purposes. If you use a weighted bat donut, the bat feels heavier. When you take the donut off, the bat feels lighter and your bat speed increases. In this case, I may or may not be the only one in the room who has worn a beekeeper's headgear, and you can see through it very well. It's meant to protect you, but the sight line is enough where you can catch the ball. But then when you take it off, the, the whole world opens up. You see everything better. So he's gonna see a pass more clearly, if only in his mind, than he does ordinarily because of that training.

Well, everyone at the skill positions could be running around with ankle weights at all times, and then they would feel better running, but that's not how they train. And that, at least, is in the form of training. Yeah, revolutionary. Nope, beekeeper's mask is not revolutionary.

Have you worn a beekeeper's mask?

Uh, I have not. I have. I have as well.

Vidas, Cody's Beekeeper Mask guys.

I'll try to— sometime during the show, I'll try to get a photo of me and my wife in beekeeper's masks during an excursion in Vancouver last summer.

Oh, this was last summer? Yeah. So you guys went— what did you guys do, like play with the honey, or what'd you do?

Um, they showed us all that. We went on a hotel tour. Uh, they took us to their— they grow their own honey there, so they took us to their bee area, and then later they fed us a meal and let us eat some of the honey. Yeah, we were nude. No. And so was the beekeeper who was with us. Beautiful woman. Nice woman. Anyway, I'll try to find those photos sometime during the show.

Travis Kelce, we have video here. You tell me what you guys think here. And it's Travis Kelce at practice. He's a little more famous. He keeps getting a little more famous. Travis Kelce is out and about at camp and he runs into Duane Bowe, but he's got security with him.

Handler, I'd call him.

Uh, okay, so it's a handler, PR guy.

That's the way it looked to me.

Okay, it's, uh, one of his people is a guy with a walkie-talkie on his belt.

Okay, with—

here is a guy, uh, who is Travis Kelce adjacent, who thinks this is just someone in a Duane Bowe jersey and not actually Duane Bowe. Come here.

You know I'm running on—

this is the man right here. This is the man.

Ring of Honor right here.

I heard, you know, I love you, baby.

I'm gonna come catch you after this.

Ah, the old 'I'll catch you after.' The best part of this video is that the kid who's got the walkie-talkie on his belt and he's walking with Travis Kelce making sure nobody else can get him feels so dejected at the fact that Travis Kelce blows him off. It's like, no, no, this is my boy, that he walks out of frame. Let's watch. Don't, don't watch the interaction between Duane Bowe and Travis Kelce, just watch the kid.

Come here. You know, I'm running on—

no, this is the man right here.

Oh, he is, he's crushed.

I've got some power here. Can you go?

He starts to hit Duane Bowe with the, you're gonna have to be behind this gate, you're not allowed over here. And then Travis Kelce gives him a stiff I'm like, no, this is my guy.

Do me a favor and look up a story for me that I think is, is pretty funny here where— so this story is funny and this video is funny because Duane Bowe's in the Ring of Honor. And you are absolutely right that the guy with the walkie-talkie was Chris Paul. And he's like, Duane Bowe, that's before my time. And this guy's a little heavier than I would have imagined somebody who was a wide receiver for us.

Well, I think that's part of what it is that happened.

And also the young person is dumb. Like, there's, there's that with no respect for history as well. Uh, so, so he is absolutely crestfallen. But the story I want you to look up for me is the details on Jack Del Rio, okay, during, uh, the, uh, the work stoppage that ended up with players crossing the picket line. I think Jack Del Rio— and I don't want to get these details wrong— but I think he got into a fight with somebody that he thought was a scab player but wasn't was just somebody who worked with management, and he got into a fight with him because he was just so mad about the work stoppage. And Jack Del Rio is, you know, fairly violent man.

Dan, this happened to Tyler Colic at the Knicks parade, right? He's, he's on the team, he won a championship, he's celebrating. You know how guys would get off the float sometimes and run up to the fans and take pictures and stuff like that? And some cop was like, yeah, you can't be here. He's like, I'm on the team. Tyler Culick is white, by the way, we should point that out.

He beat up former All-Pro 11-year Chiefs wide receiver Otis Taylor, who had been retired from football for 12 years but was in such good shape that he thought he could still be on the team and be a scab player.

So he just beat him up even though he was just— beat him up, just a guy in management who he thought was on the team. That's right.

Taylor pressed charges and the two eventually settled out of court.

Also in the United States, I can't seem to find many nude restaurants. I have found, um, two different resorts only in Florida that offer restaurants where you can be, uh, nude or partially nude. There are restaurants that have existed in London, Milan, Tokyo, Melbourne, and Paris, um, one of which offered natural ingredients. Ingredients. So going back to natural times eating raw foods such as vegetables, fruits, flowers, smoked meat while nude. Smoked meat.

This can't be something one of a kind that civilized people do.

Wow, I don't like the judgment in your voice, Dan Le Batard. Good kink.

Grid punishment.

Trying to get a meal. Nudophobia.

I legitimately thought that you said don't pink shame, and then it made me imagine you specifically nude.

More orange.

This might be a kink.

I'm saying it should be illegal. Like, this is not something that should be allowed in polite society.

Dan, we're in Miami. There are a lot of establishments, they call them gentlemen's clubs, and a lot of them are known for having really good food, but yep, the employees are nude. You don't seem to have a problem with it there.

Now, do you have to be nude?

I'd have a problem with it if they were at the pole eating, because I'd like to just go people watch and just sit at the bar with clothes on.

You have to be nude.

Is it nude mandatory? That's a good question.

One clothed guy at the bar.

Or just one nude guy. Just one. Everyone else is clothed. They don't know what they do on Monday nights and there's one guy there, one lonely nude guy.

Hey, aren't we here for the thing?

What are you guys— you guys still have shorts on.

I got Chris being the one guy sitting at the bar with an Old Fashioned in his hand with his legs crossed, just kind of hanging out like a barfly, like, hey.

How's it going? Dan Levitar. Baker Mayfield tearing up Tampa Bay, 38 for 45. Great, Cody. Shred 'em!

This is the Dan Levitar Show.

I saw Amin scribbling furiously, and it made me assume that you're making another top 5 list, another one to go with all your other top 5 lists today.

Yes, Dan. You know, earlier I gave you the top 5 foods I'd like to eat in the nude. And I said, you know what? I gotta think about this from both sides. So this is now my top 5 foods I'd like to feed someone else in the nude. Wow, thoughtful. There you go, see? Equality. Number 5, nuts. Right on. Number 4, a banana. Right on. Chocolate covered. Number 3, meatballs. Right on. Number 2, the butt. Right on. And the number 1 food I'd like to feed someone else in the nude? Wet sausage. Oh boy.

I love a wet sausage.

So we've wandered away from talking about Bill Snyder and people who looked old when it is that they were actually young. Why are you laughing in my face, Roy? Bill Snyder, huh?

Yes. Yeah. Again with Bill Snyder.

I'm going back to that because When we went out during the break, okay, Chris Cody was laughing to himself. He was just by himself laughing. And I'm like, what are you laughing about? And he's like, I'm laughing about that time that we did a show about Fred Mertz, who was the neighbor in I Love Lucy.

As we continue to skew older and older around here, and Fred Mertz, he was saying, he was alleging that Fred Mertz in that show was in his 30s. And there's just, there's just, there's just—

I thought I heard that.

There's just no way There's just no way that that's in any way accurate. No. That Fred Mertz was in his 30s when he was the neighbor of Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball. Now, I do think that in the past we have made fun of the fact—

see if you guys can find this photo of Wilford Brimley in Cocoon, because this is a nationally famous thing where Wilford Brimley in Cocoon looked unbelievably old. But he was in his early 40s.

And so Tom Cruise was making all sorts of movies that, uh, where he was older and doing all the ridiculous stunts that Tom Cruise does in his movies, and he was still in his late 40s and early 50s, and people would point out that he was older than Wilford Brimley was in Cocoon. I want you guys to look this up because this is a thing. We've done this before, and, uh, Wilford Brimley in Cocoon is my standard bearer for someone who looks impossibly old for his age, because I mean, I think Wilford Brimley in Cocoon was younger than you presently are now.

Dan, he was 49 when he was in Cocoon. I'm presently 47.

Okay, so I want you to look there. There's Wilford Brimley wearing a kind of an old-timey press hat, or what could pass for an old-timey press hat. Uh, but Chris, you've got this wrong, okay?

I gotta think you've got this wrong. There's no way I am wrong.

I thought, I thought, I thought I thought that was a thing that we had talked about before. I just remembered it and then I looked it up. He was apparently old on the show.

May contain errors. Yeah, Fred Mertz was not in his 30s, but Greg Cody really does appreciate the fact that you brought up Fred Mertz. I do. Circling back around to something that was a very brief and glorious scandal for a minute. What has happened around the World Cup and Gianni Infantino, although they call him Johnny. What has happened, that he has gone from trying to sell one-fifth of the World Cup— that's a fine, Roy, $5. He has gone from trying to sell a fifth of the World Cup to his job is very much in jeopardy. He's in almost total crisis. He has squandered all of the goodwill of an amazing World Cup. And now they have emergency meetings in Morocco where it seems like he's fighting for his job, seems like he's fighting to keep his power because everyone is mad at him and he somehow in a remarkable speed has lost everybody. Right.

Yeah, crisis meeting. Even they're calling it a crisis meeting. Uh, I don't know how he's going to keep his job and there's 4 things that can happen. There's 4 mechanisms that can see him no longer the president of FIFA. One is a voluntary resignation, and there's no indication that's going to happen. Two is to be defeated in the upcoming presidential election scheduled for March 18th, 2027. That's a possibility, although all he needs is a majority to win, a majority of 211 voting nations. He can be formally— the Ethics Committee can suspend him. The Ethics Committee can suspend him from his job, but there's no indication that would happen because theoretically he has appointed all the members of the Ethics Committee. But here's the mechanism that I think will see him voted out: a formal vote of no confidence only needs to be backed by 43 member nations, which is about one-fifth of member nations in, in UEFA, in the European delegation alone, there are about 43 or even more nations. Europe just voted to boycott. So I think based on a formal vote of no confidence, I don't see how he keeps his job.

UEFA is what you meant to say?

It's U-E-F-A. What did I say? UEFA. OK, I've heard it pronounced both ways. But if you like UEFA, you know, Johnny Infante, you did better.

Yeah, well, that's— they're making fun of me. I did. I did that yesterday. I called him Johnny Infante and confusing him with Omar Infante. Ah, okay, okay.

He had a way worse career average than I thought he did. Omar Infante, his, his career OPS+ was like 78. Like, it was shocking for a guy who had a 15-year career, huh?

Uh, I mean, yes, he wasn't that good. I mean, can you tell me how you feel, because you love this sport, about, uh, I, I just, I'm sitting here trying to remember something botched this that resulted in a power and money grab that ends up with you losing all of the power and the money. It's just nuts that it was this close to becoming an enormous corrupt money grab, and then it becoming public made it so that it was a bridge too far for everyone involved that accepts that this is a corrupt organization, but not this corrupt.

They're not allowing it to be quite this corrupt. No, we're not this much for sale.

Yeah, it's, it's funny because like a lot of corrupt institutions, corruption happens in increments. And the idea is like, well, we do this, oh, that's fine. And, and you keep letting it slide because it's just a little bit more than what it was the time before, until you turn around and you look at where you started and you see how far you've come. And Johnny Infantino, it seems like in this case, got tired of increments. He's like, let me take a bigger chunk. Like, and we saw a lead-up to this going through this World Cup, like how many more leaps that they took that were much larger than even 4 years ago, kind of the increments they made, uh, in kind of in allowing Qatar to have this World Cup, and despite the stadiums being built on basically what amounts to slave labor. So they almost kind of looked at it like, oh wow, we got away with that one. We're being a little too conservative. We can do more, we can do more, we can do more. And so you see all the things that happen during our World Cup, and we were all up in arms before it, saying, "Oh my God, they're not letting this guy in.

Oh my God, they're treating Iran like that." And yet it was a massive commercial success. You know what Gianni Infantino says? "Guys, I think we're still being conservative. We can take even more." And so now his increments get much larger. And the irony is, I think Mike said it yesterday, if he had the same plan and the same rollout out, and the same kind of strong-arming that he did, and had merely had a different partner, some venture capital or private equity firm that we didn't know was related to Jared Kushner, and in essence was another backdoor through Team Trump. If it was anyone else, just any namelessly, he might have actually gotten away with it. It reminds me a lot of what we're talking about on PTFO, about what Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers It's the level of kind of leap that they take that it's like, if you just were a little bit less, you could have gotten away with it all.

George in Seinfeld, Jason Alexander, was 30.

Do you realize, Greg Cody, that the level of corruption has to be so very spectacular when the objection that we're presently getting comes after Ameen just used the phrase throwaway phrase in the middle of what he was saying basically amounted to slave labor. Mm.

Like, that you can get away with all manner of corruption if you're FIFA. That includes an assortment of things that is killing slaves who are making stadiums for you because you have to build them so fast because a rogue nation just has more money than everyone else and has really purchased the World Cup. We say it's not for sale, but it's been for sale for a long time.

That's why FIFA's so corrupt.

'But not this for sale.' Like, do you— it's really hard for a bridge to be too far with these people, and Infantino just learned, much to his shock I'm sure. Like, there's just— I can't imagine how stunned he is on like, 'Oh my God, I misplayed this.' Like, 'I can get away with anything.' Classic Icarus.

He flew too close to the sun.

I mean, they— but, but they can't really get away with it because the department— like 16 years ago, or whenever it was, the U.S. Department of Justice indicted dozens of people over this outright bribery scandal. And in what Infantino is doing now, the irony of ironies is Sepp Blatter, the previous president and the king of FIFA corruption, comes out and says he's aghast at what's going on now with Infantino's plan that he had to scrap under pressure. So FIFA has a long, rich, literally a rich history of scandal and bribery and all that stuff. So Infantino is really just keeping up a family tradition.

Kelsey Grammer was 29 in Cheers. Carol O'Connor, Archie Bunker in All in the Family, was just 46 years old.

Damn. Roy, that's your music right there. He's playing your tune, All in the Family.

Hey, you know what you want, bitch!
