Chapter 1: What is the story behind tequila?

1.573 - 9.581 Dan Le Batard

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.

0

9.621 - 11.503 Greg Cote

Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.

0

29.099 - 29.601 Greg Cote

Cuervo.

66.064 - 70.926 Billy

Shadow show. Shadow show. Shadow show. Shadow show.

75.287 - 75.828 Billy

Shadowing it.

Chapter 2: What happened to Greg Cody Tuesdays?

95.677 - 104.359 Billy

Well, it used to be Greg Cody Tuesdays. That was like a thing, and now it's like willy-nilly. So I'm just trying to figure out, trying to read the temp.

0

104.619 - 121.504 Greg Cote

Wednesday is willy-nilly. It's wild willy-nilly. Tuesday used to be Greg Cody Tuesday. Yeah, what happened? I'm convinced. I don't know if this is true. Mike, you will have to tell me what is true or not true of the Stugatz negotiations. That Stugatz negotiated into his contract that he could just skip the days when the Knicks embarrass him.

0

123.021 - 123.622 Billy

He won't be in much.

0

123.642 - 138.595 Greg Cote

Because he was supposed to be in today. He's going to be in tomorrow, but I assume that he's not in today because he's just trying to avoid what will be a hysterically laughing day. The biggest day of the Heat season. The basketball season concluded for Heat fans with Game 6 in Indiana.

0

138.676 - 146.563 Greg Cote

That concludes our interest in anything to do with basketball and understanding that OKC will win the championship easily from here.

147.926 - 165.275 Amin Elhassan

I feel like this is one of the rare times I feel a little young in the show. Like, not young in age, but young in show experience. I don't think I ever witnessed strident Knick fan Stugatz. I've missed that era completely. So when you're talking about, oh, he's avoiding the tears, I'm like, was Stugatz even like the Knicks?

165.315 - 181.867 Dan Le Batard

He was pretty strident during this series to a frustrating end because every time they would suffer a loss and he was scheduled on the show, he's like, oh, no, the Knicks are better. I know that we're better. And now we don't actually get to have the satisfaction of him realizing that, no, you're not better than the Indiana Pacers. It's a bummer.

182.087 - 183.289 Amin Elhassan

It's pretty clear that they weren't.

184.025 - 192.008 Dan Le Batard

That game six was... It was clear that they weren't when he was saying that as a defense, but I don't know if it was coping or just not wanting to give people the pound of flesh.

Chapter 3: How did the Knicks perform in the playoffs?

840.742 - 851.385 Greg Cote

I don't think it's safe to do the entire bag in your mouth at once, is it? I believe that whole bag will make it very, very difficult for Roy to speak after that.

0

851.746 - 855.707 Amin Elhassan

I like the idea that you don't think it's safe, like Roy's going to open it. So now a second person is doing it.

0

857.348 - 861.109 Billy

This is a choking hazard. I'd worry about his teeth. Do we have a dentist on call?

0

861.309 - 876.813 Chris Cote

Oh, this is a dentist's dream. I feel like dentists give you bad advice so that they return business. You know what I mean? Like, oh, you should brush three times a day. Really, you're just like brushing the enamel off of your teeth. I think that they give you advice that damages your teeth so that you come back for repeat business.

0

876.873 - 878.113 Billy

I think you're 100% right.

878.133 - 879.994 Chris Cote

Thank you. I'm going to take the under on 100% right.

880.734 - 890.559 Billy

Nobody's got a perfect mouth, according to a dentist. You could have a perfect mouth, and they're like, well, you have a little sign of a cavity in your lower right molar neighborhood.

890.719 - 896.141 Mike

I feel like once a week someone comes in onto their chair, and they're like, you have the perfect mouth. Never.

896.181 - 908.069 Amin Elhassan

I wish I could have 100 of you. Nope. I'm telling you. My dentist, Dr. B, great dentist, great dentist, but for about 18 years. Every time I see them, they're like, we got to get those wisdom teeth out. Like, they're not a problem.

Chapter 4: What is the future for the Knicks after their playoff exit?

1195.691 - 1201.535 Amin Elhassan

They fell because Indiana had a better game plan and they executed their game plan better. It's not because the Knicks clearly were out-talented.

0

1201.575 - 1216.024 Greg Cote

No. It's not a talent issue. Nobody's saying it's a talent issue. You're saying they're not good enough to win with Bunsen as your best player. They just lost to a five. Okay. They lost to a five. I just explained how. No, and they're a three. They beat one of the two that were better than them, but...

0

1216.704 - 1240.682 Greg Cote

Maybe they're better than Cleveland next year, and maybe they're not better than Cleveland next year. And I don't know where Giannis ends up, but when we're talking about Boston realized during this year that they might have to make a change while watching what OKC was doing. A structural, architectural change. If Boston is the champion is doing that, I feel like we've sped up.

0

1240.903 - 1257.382 Greg Cote

What are you looking at me? What was Boston realizing it had to make a change? There was a conversation happening during the season as people realized, like you did, OKC has gotten better than Boston. What might that team have to do to change if it loses against OKC?

0

1258.624 - 1261.006 Amin Elhassan

No, that's not a conversation that was happening.

1261.086 - 1263.489 Greg Cote

So it's a conversation that's happening now, is it not?

1263.509 - 1268.214 Dan Le Batard

It was a conversation that was really tied to the purchase price because they had to avoid the luxury tax.

1268.294 - 1272.459 Amin Elhassan

It was all a money conversation. OK. It has nothing to do with, oh my God, OKC is really good.

1272.579 - 1274.101 Dan Le Batard

Their elimination has changed it, though.

Folks, listen up. It's an interesting time for business. Tariff, trade policies, changing by the hour, supply chains, squeeze tighter than Stugatz in a pair of skinny jeans, and cash flow. Forget about it. Tighter than a Levitard show segment. If your business can't adapt in real time, you're in a world of hurt. Real-time forecasting so you can see what's ahead.

1571.089 - 1573.47 Dan Le Batard

All right, y'all. The Super Bowl is in the rearview mirror.

1573.69 - 1583.815 Mike

The draft has come and gone. So now what? Now it's time to get the crew together. You keep the fandom energy going. It doesn't stop when the Super Bowl's gone. We gather. Exactly.

1583.875 - 1595.123 Dan Le Batard

And look, just because the pads are off doesn't mean game day stops. Around here, we do game days. Even in the offseason. And what better way to do that than with a cold drink and your people around?

1595.343 - 1602.231 Mike

You've heard it all season long. Football is not a solo thing. This is not a me thing. This is not an I thing. This is a we thing.

1602.251 - 1606.115 Dan Le Batard

There is no I in fandom, baby. So grab your

Chapter 6: What are the implications of the Knicks' roster decisions?

1727.887 - 1731.41 Greg Cote

Is that what you're saying? No way a Camry's trunk is big enough to hold a million dollars.

0

1731.47 - 1734.312 Chris Cote

When you say a genie, do you mean Robin Williams is Greg's guardian angel?

0

1734.332 - 1752.504 Greg Cote

You take the tire out, you know, you've got plenty of room. It's going to be weighted to the floor. You're going to know there's a million dollars. You're not going to be able to drive the car. Put it on the Polat Levitard show. Can you move a Toyota Corolla? Can you drive a Toyota Corolla that has one million pounds worth of gold weight?

0

1752.524 - 1753.324 Chris Cote

A million pounds?

0

1753.564 - 1754.965 Greg Cote

No, no, no.

1755.005 - 1755.525 Amin Elhassan

Dollars.

1755.625 - 1756.765 Greg Cote

Dollars, not pounds.

1756.785 - 1771.509 Amin Elhassan

Now we're talking. This isn't the South End, innit? Forgive me. Innit? Forgive me. I love it. Wait, hold on. I've got to do my Tom Hardy. You've got to keep talking like this. See, Kev, me and the Aragans, we've got a problem, innit?

1772.045 - 1776.086 Billy

I love that. It came up on Mobland.

Chapter 7: What are the key issues the Knicks need to address?

1888.985 - 1899.055 Roy

Especially on the road for the Panthers. And they are going on the road for this series. The Orioles have a whole nice advantage in this series. And I think the Panthers take full advantage of that one.

0

1899.215 - 1921.687 Dan Le Batard

The Hyman thing is huge. What? Ayo. But... What Bob struggled with so far this postseason, what certain teams were affected, Toronto mainly, until Mikolo woke up and realized he had to get ultra-physical, is putting a big body in front of Bob, screening him, making it tough to read the puck. Zach Hyman, that's what he does. They call him Shaq Hyman. He scores all his goals inside of one feet.

0

1922.587 - 1935.632 Dan Le Batard

But now that he's out, what big body can they put up there? Is it Nugent Hopkins? Is... He's very effective at that, even when he's not scoring goals for them at the same clip. This is a former 50-goal scorer, so Florida's benefiting from this injury, no doubt.

0

1935.772 - 1939.193 Roy

Corey Perry's going to end up in front of that as well, and he's been getting his goals that way.

0

1939.213 - 1956.3 Chris Cote

Yeah, he's been very good for them lately. This Google AI thing seems to still be figuring itself out because it seems as though a million dollars in gold might only be 27 pounds. Not 516. When Dan started saying that, I'm like, this is... See, it says a million dollars of gold at today's market price would weigh approximately 516.65 pounds.

1956.32 - 1960.001 Chris Cote

This equates to about 83,083 troy ounces or 27.46 pounds of gold. Now, is it pounds of gold? Is it pounds of gold in it, governor?

1970.226 - 1996.948 Chris Cote

Mmm, if you ever find gold by the way gang if you're ever treasure hunting and you find gold Melt it down and remake your own bars because if it's stamped and it belongs like to Spain they're gonna come and claim it you Know you you really have to find someone to melt it down because if you if you it belongs to like the kingdom of Spain or like You know the Irish whatever they come and they later just like you get up to a lighter No, you'll see if it's coins the cauldron.

1996.968 - 1997.008 Dan Le Batard

Oh

1997.268 - 2004.215 Chris Cote

Yeah, no, you got to... Guys, I'm trying to help you here. It's really a curse to find gold because they come and they claim it and you really get nothing out of it.
