Chapter 1: What is the unique format of The Big Suey podcast?
The only times he's won is when we've made terrible mistakes somehow. It's not because he ever deserves to win.
But Mike would groove the first one or two in, and then the next three, chain jumps, curveballs, everything. Impossible. And me just swinging and falling to the ground. He can't win. He can't win that game. I'm undefeated. He always wins.
Dan and Stu talked about it being like a palate cleanser. Did you create this bit, Mike?
I just knew that we needed a device. Our show... is really good at getting people in the tent and with nonsense.
And then while they're in the tent, we'll have an important discussion and you're going to be sitting there not really understanding what you're sitting through because we've already put it in your head that we're just going from laugh to laugh and there's going to be important societal discussions along the way, but you're going to enjoy the journey.
So we knew that we needed to do something to dress it up. We had come up with games to play with guests. There was this game that we had called Douche or No Douche that we had in our back pocket anytime we needed to spruce up an interview or we weren't exactly sure where to take the interview. And I really liked having that as a device. And I knew
given how strong Dan and John's relationship was and knowing how playful John was and how much he liked our show and liked Sugatz as a character, I knew he'd be down for this. So it was all about tracking the mispronunciations as they would happen. And we started building up quite the arsenal. I'm proud of that folder. Roy had a very good ear for it. We'd all kind of mark it.
Like anytime Sugatz misspoke, put that in the something each file. And we had to immediately write down what we thought Sugatz was trying to say, because absent context, there was no way that we were going to figure out what Sugatz was going to say. I mean, some of these clips were really ridiculous.
I mean, after 20 minutes of super serious conversation with Dan, you need something.

Chapter 2: How did Stugatz's mispronunciations become a popular segment?
Yeah, he wasn't in that day. That's okay, though. It's good work by you. It's all right.
Thank you.
I appreciate that. I was in that thing. A hologram of me was sitting here.
Yeah. Sorry. I love you, Chris. I love all the Cody's. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It's fine. Listen, the other day I called my husband Xander, who's my son, and it creeped him out. So don't feel bad.
Do you have any telephone numbers? How many telephone numbers does L. Duncan know?
Yeah, I was shaking my head going like this when you were asking that question. I know. Same thing as Chris, not Greg. I know my child. Hey, what's up, Greg? I know my childhood numbers for a house that no one lives at anymore. And then I know my husband's, my mom and my dad's. And that would be it for me. So anybody else like if I don't have my phone, I'm effed.
I actually remember the phone number of my childhood house, 1440, which I haven't lived in in 55 years.
Put it on the poll as well. I think most people might at Levitard Show. Do you remember the number at your original home at Levitard Show? Yes or no is the question. Al, how often do you use your phone as a phone?
Because one of the things that I'm super interested in as we've evolved is the sheer number of people who get annoyed when their phone rings like a phone and have no interest in actually using it as anything other than a computer.

Chapter 3: Who is John Amici and why is he featured on the show?
I want to play for you some sound from West Virginia's governor here standing in front of a sign, the National Corrupt Athletic Association here to get both your reaction to this. and to ask you whether the women's game has had more controversy than the men's game this year, because this is the big controversy from the men's game.
West Virginia deserved to be in the NCAA tournament. This was a miscarriage of justice and robbery at the highest levels. Now, who was the last team to get into the tournament? Ahead of the Mountaineers. That would be the University of North Carolina. Now let's see how their resume stacks up. The Tar Heels went 1-12 in Quad 1 games and even had a Quad 3 loss.
What are you laughing about, Al? So silly. This is so silly.
I love when politicians try to cosplay as irrational, angry fans. How many West Virginia games we think that dude's watched this year? Where's West Virginia in terms of public school rankings? Because I think they're like 35th in the United States. Where's your outrage for that?
Where's your outrage for literally anything else that's happening in the country right now, but this is your sticking point? You're pissed about this? Here's what I would say. If you want to leave no doubt, that is completely in your hands to leave absolutely no doubt.
You either build that resume throughout the year or you win your respective conference tournament and then you don't have to worry about the corrupt committee. I don't agree with a lot of their opinions. I know that a lot of this is because I believe the AD for UNC is the committee chair. And this happens across.
All of sports is that if there's a selection committee, they typically come from a school. They're supposed to excuse themselves when it comes to these conversations. But the truth is, like anybody in this space, Dan called this a little bit ago. We had Tom Crean on our show just the other day before the UNC Duke game. And he basically said, like, if UNC.
fights a little bit and tries hard, if all things are equal, they're always gonna go with a blue blood. And that's because of ratings, right? Like they're always gonna go with a blue blood team like a UNC with the hopes that they'll face a Duke and that would be a ratings bonanza. Do I think that UNC was deserving based on their resume? Not really. I think they're one in 12 and quad one wins.
Nobody even knows what that actually means. But like... Whenever politicians do this, it's so annoying to me because you don't care. You don't actually care. You're just trying to rally up your base, curry a little bit of favor, but you don't care. And there are certainly more important things in the state of West Virginia that need to be addressed.
