You're listening to DraftKings Network.
Now's 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 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.
Cuervo.
Cuervo.

Chapter 2: What is the story behind the corn dog eating contest?
What's going on with our corn dog eating contest? Weren't we supposed to do that today? Where are you, Greg Cody, on this corn dog eating contest? I saw that there were corn dogs out there. Is that a piece of confetti that has fallen from the peacock announcement that we made? Right here, a piece of confetti. How many months ago was that? They're still falling from the roof here.
Still worth celebrating. Confetti here from our peacock partnership. A partnership that will include a corn dog eating contest. How did we get to a corn dog eating contest? I don't even remember.
I think Billy watched one.
He watched one? Oh, he went to one.
That's how Domino got invited to your Domino tournament. That's binding, by the way.
Speaking of which, that Domino tournament, if you don't play Dominoes, there are going to be 100, 120 people playing Dominoes, but there will be hundreds of other people there, tickets available if you want to be interacting with any of the people that are there. We're trying to make this, as I mentioned, very intimate so that you actually get interactions with us.
So what do I get when I win the Domino tournament? Has that been established?
There will be prizes and there will be swag. But what's going on with our corn dog eating contest?
We're trying around here to, you know, connect the shows throughout the week. We have a show and we're like, hey, let's do – so we talked about a corn dog contest. So after that show, we're like, hey, let's do a corn dog contest the next week. And then I woke up today and I was just like, is this – I feel like this is kind of – I don't want my dad to choke on a hot dog. Like I –

Chapter 3: What are the highlights of the Renaissance Festival experience?
So you're not going to participate?
I'm holding out for handmade, homemade corn dogs that I see dipped and extracted from the earl. That's what I want.
So carnivals, fairs.
Yeah, a midway. A carnival midway with calliope music.
Put it on the poll, please, at Levitard Show. Does a corn dog taste better at a carnival than anywhere else?
You know what I had at the Renaissance Festival this past weekend? A deep fried peanut butter and jelly. It was basically like funnel cake with the powder on the outside and you bite into the center of it, some peanut butter and jelly. It was delightful.
The Dade County Youth Fair comes back on Thursday. We went last year, didn't we?
Yes, we did. But this year it's a retro youth fair.
Yes, it's a retro youth fair.

Chapter 4: What are Mike Ryan's top disliked team acquisitions?
Yeah, two Americas on that one.
I just clicked images and I don't like what I see. Sorry.
I can't believe Greg just did this.
Oh, dude, this is real bad.
I'm going to Google it. I think you should Google it.
You really should Google it.
Don't click images. He'll know he made a genuine mistake. He's right on one definition. The other definition, however... Well, he said he dressed...
dressed like a minstrel, and now you do a Google image search, how's that working for you?
Not real good. It's education. But again, medieval musician. Let's stick to medieval musician.

Chapter 5: What absurd observations does Jason Benetti share?
Can you please get for me a couple of top five lists before we get to Jason Benetti, one of the great play-by-play men of our generation? And he's going to be a guest here in a moment. But we have here a couple of different top five lists. We've got Mike Ryan's top five list of acquisitions for his team that he hated. And we have Tony's top five free agent winners so far in football.
Which would you like to go to first, Greg Cody, since this is your day? I'll take the first one. Okay. Do you remember what it is? No. Top five acquisitions for Mike Ryan's teams that he hated. Do you have any O-L-I, Mike Ryan?
I do. These are top five acquisitions that I hated upon learning, that I was never behind it, didn't like it. When they signed them, I was bummed.
I think I know who number one is, but go ahead. O-L-I.
Jimmy Butler. Not a Jimmy Butler guy. Thought he was inefficient. Didn't like what he was doing in the locker rooms. Didn't think it would work out. And he largely proved me wrong. He went to the NBA Finals, you know, twice as the best player on a Miami Heat team. So I got that one wrong. Number five, Romelu Lukaku. This guy.
He missed a pen in the Super Cup and then he went gallivanting around the Premier League and then he just held Chelsea hostage for like a huge payday. You knew his heart was never in it. Came in and immediately went on a Sky Italia interview trashing the club. Your academy club, Romelu. I hated it from the moment you came back and you proved me right immediately.
Mike Ryan, I'm sorry. I'm going to put you on hold and do something I've never done before. I'm going to interrupt the top five list as it happens. Jason Benetti is there and I am seating the floor to Benetti. I want to be kind, a kind host to our guests. So just hold on to it there. Benetti, thank you for joining us.
Can you tell us of a time that you hated that one of the acquisitions that your team made?
So I grew up a New Orleans Saints fan and they traded their entire draft for Ricky Williams once. Like literally everybody. And he had no rookies to hang out with. And he was, you know, a little bit of an eccentric guy in the first place. But they, you know, they traded their entire draft for Ricky Williams.

Don Libetard. You don't remember the idea for a home run call?
I was probably like, that kind of thing. Something. Okay, no. The home run call was that kind of swing, that kind of thing. Stugatz. Oh. That's a good call. Thank you. And plus, it doesn't matter who's hitting it. Like, you're not tailoring it to a particular name. You know, all that jazz. You know, you don't got to do that. Oh, that would be a great call.
That kind of swing, that kind of thing.

Greg, I don't think you were here when Benetti delighted us by breaking out his SportsCenter voiceover guy. No, I was not. I'm going to introduce you now to him if he'd be willing to do it. You will recognize the pukey broadcaster from SportsCenter who does some of these ads. Forgive me for doing this to you again, but my friend has not met your ESPN voiceover guy.
So, Jason, if you'd be kind enough to unveil him, I would appreciate it.

That sounded delicious. You made my mouth water. Have you been working on any of the others since we saw you? You did Sean McDonough. You did Droopy Dog. Do you have any others in the arsenal that we didn't get to?
