Chapter 1: Who opens the show and what fitness journey is discussed?

1.516 - 19.194 Mike

Hey folks, it's Mike Ryan. And if you're watching our show, you probably know when your boy has undergone a little bit of a body transformation. And I got to tell you, Peloton has helped me on my fitness journey. It got the ball rolling for me because I watched my wife on the Peloton. She takes all these great classes. She has her favorite instructors. I listen to the music. I'm a big music guy.

19.474 - 41.698 Mike

gets me fired up, makes me want to take part in this fitness phenomenon known as Peloton. Peloton offers a variety of challenging classes, from four-week strength-building classes to running, cycling, and everything in between. Peloton will help you achieve your goals, and maybe you'll have some fun along the way. I know I have. It's backed by thousands of members whose lives have been changed.

0

42.078 - 68.99 Mike

Be part of that group. I'm telling you, I'm better for it. Have it in my office. Sometimes I can put on the baseball game. Sometimes I can put on a soccer match. Some other times I'm totally locked in on an emo playlist. Find your push. Find your power with Peloton at onepeloton.com. Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo.

0

90.185 - 90.686 Mike

Cuervo.

0

90.926 - 95.992 Mike

The tequila that invented tequila. Proximo. Cuervo.com. Please drink responsibly. Cuervo.

97.013 - 100.698 Jeremy

This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.

Chapter 2: What happened with the controversial Hagel hit in the hockey game?

105.131 - 125.476 Zaslow

I am so motivated to make a memory here with you guys today because the first thing that Cody says to me, I see him. I'm doing nothing personal. Everything's good. You guys are doing your pre-show prep, Zazz. And I can see everyone's into it. You guys are locked in, which I like. You're ready to start on time. We got a core group of lunatic fans here.

0

125.897 - 130.698 Zaslow

And all I'm hearing in my ear and all I'm hearing pre-show is, I hate that Hagel guy.

0

130.918 - 141.061 Chris Cote

And he should. It's very upsetting what took place last night. It was a hit. It was a dirty hit. You forgot the word dirty that comes in front of a hit. I'd say gross.

0

141.201 - 145.382 Zaslow

I'd say a gross hit. Vomit's gross. Yeah. Not that.

0

145.642 - 150.263 Chris Cote

Seeing your best player on the ground and he cannot return, that's gross.

151.434 - 160.423 Zaslow

The first thing I thought of when I saw the hit, we're obviously talking about what happened. For those of you not locked in because there was so much last night, for those of you who may have been at a Pearl Jam concert and couldn't see it live.

160.683 - 161.344 Chris Cote

Oh, yeah, baby.

167.79 - 167.77 Chris Cote

20?

167.81 - 167.77 Zaslow

30?

Chapter 3: How are emotions and strategies impacting the Panthers vs Lightning series?

227.851 - 229.453 Dan Le Batard

So far, Billy's looking incredibly right.

0

229.833 - 251.4 Chris Cote

beyond right so you're right it the panthers are in a phenomenal position winning both games on the road and and i feel like it looks like they're going to sweep them now but we also have to step back for a second the home ice advantage it's not like the nba it's not like if you win the two games on the road and then you're coming home oh the series is over it's not quite like that in hockey

0

251.98 - 257.003 Chris Cote

So there's still work to be done, but we're in a great spot here, David Sampson.

0

257.543 - 279.758 Dan Le Batard

I actually have an interesting take on the Hagel hit last night. I actually blame the Panthers for it a little bit. Hear me out on this. They are so aggressive and so dominant that they get in the other team's head. Hagel was rattled last night. You see Sam Bennett on the Panthers. When he hits somebody, when he gets hits... And when he gets hit, his face doesn't change. He is emotionless.

0

280.118 - 301.056 Dan Le Batard

Hagel, every time he gets hit, he's been on tilt since game one. You can see it where he's like frantic and like, I want to get that guy. And that's what happened. They broke him in the first two periods where he was like, I got to hit somebody. I need to do this. And he did it to bark off. And it's a dirty hit. But I almost blame the Panthers for being their style of play. It travels so well.

301.396 - 310.342 Dan Le Batard

The way that they've emotionally broken this Tampa team. You can almost blame them because that's what comes. When you break somebody, they're going to snap and do something crazy, and that's what happened.

310.462 - 311.683 Roy

More like broken Hegel.

312.763 - 314.064 Dan Le Batard

That's that. Thank you.

314.204 - 318.146 Roy

Do you get what I'm saying, though, Roy? More like Brandon Hegel because we hate him.

Chapter 4: What are the drug testing procedures for players returning from suspensions?

657.405 - 661.669 Dan Le Batard

Wink, wink, random. Random means you can do it to anybody at any time. Let's just be clear.

0

662.389 - 676.963 Zaslow

There is no such thing as random testing. As if they're pulling a name out of a hat. This is actually how it works with the P test in baseball. There's a guy who's waiting for you. He doesn't work for your team or the visiting team. They're waiting there after a game.

0

676.983 - 677.664 Dan Le Batard

Is he for sale?

0

678.686 - 691.989 Zaslow

I love where your head's at, because the question's been asked. And you get a list of the players, and then you have to pull the players, and they walk with the player to go pee-pee. There's no break at all. You don't get to go back to your locker, you don't get to do anything.

0

692.009 - 694.75 Chris Cote

Because that's where you get the wizinator, and you fooled him, you know?

694.81 - 700.031 Dan Le Batard

If there's any funny business, like, if they're like, I just, I swear, I'm not going to grab anything, I just want, I need to get something real.

700.071 - 706.072 Zaslow

Nope, no funny business at all. It is direct, lock, stock, and barrel, right to the urinal.

706.232 - 724.848 Unknown

come with me i just need to go grab my phone like you can come with me i'm not doing anything ridiculous dave have you ever had an issue where you've had a player that's had a shy bladder that's like hey i just i can't i can't go i just peed in the eighth inning i didn't know i was going to be tested you're watching me like i can't go you watching me that's crazy yeah we bring them water

725.785 - 727.766 Tony

And just force feed them water until they piss themselves?

Chapter 5: How does the show test the timing of hydration and urination live?

767.523 - 768.823 Zaslow

He did it. You know he did.

0

768.843 - 775.785 Chris Cote

Well, I know he did. The question is whether or not it was on purpose or not because you get the obligatory, I didn't know.

0

776.745 - 789.787 Zaslow

I had diarrhea. Whatever. It's always on purpose. Hockey players, I understand why they need to do it. So we're seeing right now for the people on video on the YouTube channel, you're seeing Chris who's going to try to drink water. He's going to go pee first.

0

789.807 - 790.668 Roy

He's going to pee first.

0

790.708 - 792.188 Zaslow

That's why he's walking away through that hallway.

792.208 - 795.689 Chris Cote

Pee, then water, then pee. and see how long it takes him to have to go again.

795.809 - 806.854 Zaslow

It can happen quickly. I mean, we're going to keep going. The show must go on. This is the first time we've ever. Is that correct in this room? We've never had a pee, drink, pee situation.

806.874 - 823.123 Unknown

Never. The thing is you have to have somebody who's the tester watching him pee. That's the issue that me and Zaz are bringing up because if you just go and close the door, okay, I can pee anywhere. But the thing is if I've got somebody that I don't know staring at me while I'm trying to take a whiz, it's tough. Ethan, go watch Chris pee. We need someone out there.

823.383 - 825.205 Zaslow

We need someone making sure Chris is peeing.

Chapter 6: What are the hosts’ personal pee habits and related humorous takes?

903.981 - 916.608 Dan Le Batard

I'm going to every— Five or six, every three or four minutes here, over the next time, I will do the thing of, let me try to see, can I pee right now? And as soon as I have the feeling of, I can go pee, I will immediately go to the mic and say, guys, I can pee.

0

916.788 - 925.934 Zaslow

Speak it on behalf of your wife and the person who does your laundry. Just be aware that once in a while, the eh ends up with a little drip drip. Chris might do his own laundry, Chris.

0

926.014 - 927.175 Chris Cote

Especially as you get older.

0

927.195 - 928.195 Zaslow

Especially as you get older.

0

928.335 - 932.738 Chris Cote

I'm at that place now where I'm worried, when is that day going to happen? Oh, it's tomorrow.

933.078 - 956.434 Zaslow

Yeah, yeah, as you get older. I would like to go on record while we're waiting for Chris to go pee-pee, which is going to happen. You just did your first, uh. Don't have to go yet. This has been under a minute. We're good. I'm testing it. Right now the tester is with the player. They're in the bathroom in the clubhouse. They're just talking about the game. They're hanging out.

956.635 - 966.941 Dan Le Batard

They're good. I'm like, we got a good spread over there if you want to go check out, get a plate of food to the guy. Then he goes away and I try to like, you know. Anyone got any urine? Anyone got any pee? Do you remember when Lawrence Taylor used the wrong pee?

968.351 - 990.968 Zaslow

No. What, like, what, a comeback that he was pregnant? So Lawrence Taylor, in a documentary, came clean, ironically, pun intended, that he used someone else's pee for a drug test, and the person whose pee he used had done coke. Oh, no. So he got nailed for the wrong pee use. Oh, no. Idiot. It's like, PEDs are good, but...

991.488 - 992.511 Tony

We got another issue.

Chapter 7: What was the experience of watching the Panthers game during the Pearl Jam concert?

1009.75 - 1031.229 Chris Cote

I'm fully prepared for this show today. I would never not pay attention to my favorite little hockey team, the Panthers. I was able to watch the first two periods in full, in real time, before Pearl Jam took the stage. Then Pearl Jam takes the stage, and with about... 10 minutes left, I got the phone on where I'm watching the play-by-play. Not the game, but I'm watching the play-by-play.

0

1031.249 - 1037.595 Zaslow

They went on at 8.47. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just want to be clear because I was following exactly this to know how much work you weren't doing.

0

1037.735 - 1059.19 Chris Cote

Right, right, right. And the Panther game started at 6.30. So like I said, I watched the first two periods in full in real time. And the third period, I'm following along from 10 minutes on. I mean, watching that clock count down on my phone and the box score. I mean, it was taken forever. And then I see with about a minute 50 left, all of a sudden under Tampa, it says, E-N, empty net.

0

1059.21 - 1076.475 Chris Cote

And I'm like, oh, shit. Shit, all right, it's going to be a really long two minutes here. And I'm just staring at the phone, me and my son too, because my boys love the Panthers as well. I'm showing Dan. Dan's yelling to everybody, Zasla's watching the Panthers. And I'm watching that clock. That was a good impression of Dan. Yeah, that was excellent. That was spot on. Pitch-wise, it was excellent.

0

1076.495 - 1094.711 Chris Cote

Right, right, right. And just the clock's ticking down, the clock's ticking down, and then all of a sudden, a two. Pops up over the Panthers. It's like, yes! Bennett. And, of course, then the rest of Pearl Jam. As if Pearl Jam wasn't amazing enough already, the rest of the show, oh, my God. Me and my son were jumping around. It was what a night.

1094.751 - 1103.901 Chris Cote

Was Eddie Vedder in a Panther jersey or a Bears jersey? No, no. He actually made reference to Jimmy Buffett early in the show because he was wearing something Jimmy Buffett would wear.

1104.341 - 1112.003 Zaslow

Yeah. Can we put that down the poll? What is something Jimmy Buffett would wear? It has to be a 100-0 Hawaiian shirt. Yeah, Hawaiian for sure.

1112.263 - 1121.565 Chris Cote

Yeah, it was like a tropical kind of shirt. The band was clearly really pleased that they were here in South Florida. They love the casino. They never played a venue like that here, of course.

1122.605 - 1128.927 Dan Le Batard

That is big time when you're like, we've never even played anywhere with a casino. I feel like a lot of acts play with, like, that's just Pearl Jam's big time.

Chapter 8: What promotional messages and sponsor ads are included in the episode?

1464.768 - 1467.75 Dan Le Batard

I have been at a concert with David. David is a great vibe at a concert.

0

1467.81 - 1469.411 Chris Cote

What makes him a great vibe?

0

1469.571 - 1494.231 Dan Le Batard

just a good time uh i'm going you need something i'm gonna like he's he'll take someone who's willing to say do you need something it's definitely a good person to be like i'm going to get a drink you want one like that's a good person like he got me like oh he saw i was there he made a phone call next i'm in vip with him like david is and then like like i once was at a concert with dan and dan when you're standing because it's always a weird thing at a concert when you're in standing because when you're sitting what can you do there's not a lot of dancing of

0

1494.932 - 1510.358 Dan Le Batard

you know, whether you're just a stander in GA or whether you're, I'm dancing along with the music. Oh, I'm a dancer, baby. Dan is kind of like, I'm going to dance with my neck. Yeah, I saw a little bit of that. There's not a lot of body movement, but he's just like, I'm having a good time. Look how much my neck's moving.

0

1510.378 - 1515.88 Chris Cote

Dan got most into it last night when they played Even Flow. He was most into that. It's the only one he's heard of.

1517.58 - 1533.026 Dan Le Batard

Now, how was the situation? I sometimes struggle when you're at a stadium or an arena where you're sitting. Do you play the game of, if no one behind me, did you stand at all? You stand the entire time. Was everyone standing the entire time? Yeah. Okay, so that was the thing there.

1533.066 - 1542.59 Zaslow

It's so stressful. It's a stressful situation. It is so stressful. When you go to like a Springsteen concert where the demographics are that I'm on the young side. They want to sit. There's a lot of sitting.

1542.81 - 1543.05 Mike

Really?

1543.07 - 1570.742 Zaslow

And I'm a stander. And I was at a Springsteen concert with a friend of mine who is a she's just a friend, but attractive and tall woman. And we're together. Well, yeah, like Dan's X, but he's really tall. And someone so someone said, hey, sit down. Oh, no, you can't do that at a concert. And I said, no, I'm not going to sit down because I am loving the fact that I want to stand up and dance.
