Chapter 1: What is the origin story of tequila?

00:01 - 00:22 Amin Elhassan

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 you could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.

00:38 - 00:59 Dan Le Batard

Welcome to the Big Suey, presented by DraftKings. Why are you listening to this show? The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Lebitard podcast. I'm sorry, I'm not going to apologize for that. In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries if they're just there.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Dan Le Batard

That hasn't happened to you guys? I've done it. And now, here's the marching band to nowhere, fat face, and the habitual liar.

00:00 - 00:00 Stu Gatz

This episode of the Dan Lopetar Show with Stu Gatz is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours.

00:00 - 00:00 Roy

I thought I could leave it alone. I couldn't because when I went out there, Ethan shoved Taylor under the bus and said, Taylor hasn't seen Raiders of the Lost Ark either.

00:00 - 00:00 Mike

Taylor's a different kind of guy. The problem with Taylor is that he's never seen anything. Any movie. Any movie whatsoever. He just watches tape. That's it.

00:00 - 00:00 Billy

No, he watches Kings of Queens and that's it. That and Everybody Loves Raymond. That's what he does. He doesn't watch anything else.

Chapter 2: Why is Rocky considered a classic movie series?

01:45 - 01:46 Mike

One of the greatest movies of all time.

0

01:46 - 01:57 Roy

One of the greatest movies of all time. It's a great movie. So my kids, I showed my kids Rocky for the first time last weekend. Watched Rocky for the first time. And I was worried. Because, you know, Rocky 1 is slow.

0

01:57 - 01:58 Andrew Hawkins

Dangerous.

0

01:58 - 02:00 Roy

It's slow. Well, no, violent.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Mike

No, not violent.

00:00 - 00:00 Roy

You know what my kids watch?

00:00 - 00:00 Mike

DTE. Violence is not the issue. Violence is not the issue.

00:00 - 00:00 Andrew Hawkins

We agree that Rocky had DTE early in the game. Yes. From day one. From day one. He came into the pros with CTE, do you agree? Yes, advanced. It was like, he shouldn't have been fighting. We can look back and be like, hey, maybe you should just keep the warehouse job.

00:00 - 00:00 Amin Elhassan

How did it go, though? Because I'm worried about that film agent, especially with a younger demo.

Chapter 3: How does Rocky compare to Creed in the movie franchise?

02:31 - 02:34 Amin Elhassan

Because it's a great film and you want them to feel what you felt.

0
0

02:34 - 02:40 Amin Elhassan

But the times may change what they feel. They liked it. They liked it. Oh, that's good news. Did they like the ending?

0

02:40 - 02:46 Roy

Because the ending is super satisfying. They were confused by the ending. They were like, wait, who won? It wasn't clear. And I was like, yeah, Apollo.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Stu Gatz

It wasn't clear. You announced it.

00:00 - 00:00 Amin Elhassan

But it's kind of a celebration. You can see how people are confused. For a combat sport, you should not land that.

00:00 - 00:00 Roy

The way it's shot, first of all, my kids don't watch boxing. So the idea of like, the first judge had it, 115. They don't know what's happening. Number two, the announcement is actually in the background because the foreground is Rocky going, Rocky!

00:00 - 00:00 Roy

like so and then they hug and they see Apollo jumping they don't know what they're like wait who won so I had to explain that to him the other notes that we got right number two is when's Eye of the Tiger come on and I had to explain to them guys Rocky 3 which led me to should I skip watching Rocky 2 no

00:00 - 00:00 Amin Elhassan

No, Rocky II is good. Is it? Rocky II is the one I've seen the least of in my life. There's only one that you skip, and it's Rocky V. Oh, that never happened. But you know what? I like Rocky V, man.

Chapter 4: What are the implications of Russell Wilson's career moves?

08:00 - 08:05 Mike

And we're your boxing trunks, too. I think we got a LeBron-Windy situation here. He never said he was his best friend.

0

08:05 - 08:09 Roy

All he said is he's going to go to the funeral. Only friends go to funerals. That's not true.

0

08:09 - 08:14 Amin Elhassan

I've gone to a lot of funerals. Why do we keep having Amin die before Michael Jordan? Amin started.

0

08:14 - 08:21 Andrew Hawkins

He's got the premonition. He's going to do it. Number one. Because he wants Michael Jordan to go to his funeral. He's going to make sure it happens.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Roy

LeBron's not the only person spending seven figures on their body. Michael Jordan is, except it's just cognac and cigars. But still, look at George Burns. He lived to like 112 or whatever, so there it is. You, Hawk.

00:00 - 00:00 Andrew Hawkins

Millions of cognac and cigars a year on your body.

00:00 - 00:00 Roy

Let me get away from this before he decides he's not going to come up.

00:00 - 00:00 Andrew Hawkins

Yeah, he's not. You see how I'm trying to dig into it? I'm trying to make sure I keep my money. Like, I can't believe. I'm sorry, Mike. All you said he spends his money on is cigars and cognac.

00:00 - 00:00 Mike

I like them.

Chapter 5: Is Ciara more famous now than in the past?

10:16 - 10:37 Andrew Hawkins

He got cut in a season where he was playing decent. And the thing about it is he didn't finish last year great. He is aging. Everyone does. He's not a young quarterback. But he's not playing that far off of the way that he's always played. And that is just the elements around him. And now he gets to go to New York media market with his superstar wife. Well, superstar.

0

10:38 - 10:41 Andrew Hawkins

Back into, yeah, Ciara's a superstar, bro. She was a superstar.

0

10:41 - 10:47 Roy

We're doing this off of follows. She was a superstar. She was a huge superstar. She's more famous worldwide.

0

10:47 - 11:12 Andrew Hawkins

Yes, she is. I would argue she's more famous now than she's ever been. Nah, that can't be true. one two step sir that you guys are living in a moment like she's more visible now no she's not the injection of sports i had the biggest song on the planet the biggest song on the planet she had the the missy cosign i think you guys are really really into hip-hop at the time At that time, absolutely.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Amin Elhassan

It was certifiably one of my passions. In that era, 100%.

00:00 - 00:00 Andrew Hawkins

I still think Sierra. When Luda hopped on the track.

00:00 - 00:00 Roy

With the meanest, leanest. Come on, man.

00:00 - 00:00 Andrew Hawkins

I didn't say it wasn't fire. Dip, dip, dip, dip, dip. I didn't say I wasn't in the party's going hammer. Come on, man. I'm just saying she's still a superstar. She is. And they're now in the media market of New York as opposed to Western Pennsylvania.

00:00 - 00:00 Amin Elhassan

Sure. No, look, hey, man. You know what else grinds my gears? I'm sorry to cut you off. What's that? We were doing this thing. We let Dan perpetuate this. Aaron Rodgers and Stugatz, last five games, last five games. And then I look at Russell Wilson's last five games. Very comparable, except Russell Wilson was actually playing real teams. Yeah, meaningful. In real games.

Chapter 6: What role does Stephon Diggs play in developing young quarterbacks?

16:55 - 17:13 Dan Le Batard

There's a genuine comfort, and I can tell that they put in effort to make sure, specifically in our case with men, that we would feel comfortable. Honestly, Tommy John's changed the game for me. I know it's going to be a good day now when I walk out the door and I've got Tommy John on. No distractions, no adjusting, just all-day confidence.

00:00 - 00:00 Mike

Ever feel like your paycheck disappeared before you even know where it went? You're not alone. Tracking your spending can be tricky, especially when little expenses sneak up on you. Late night food deliveries, impulse online shopping, sporting event tickets, and don't even get me started on organic baby wipes and diapers. Finances can feel overwhelming, but Monarch Money makes it simple.

00:00 - 00:00 Mike

Think of it as your personal CFO, giving you full visibility and control so you can stop just earning and start growing.

Chapter 7: Why is the NFL considering banning the 'tush push'?

24:10 - 24:22 Roy

And Senegal is a team that has a lot of big-name guys. Sadio Mane, to give you an example. They've got a bunch of guys that play in the EPL, and they play at the top levels of European football.

0

24:22 - 24:23 Amin Elhassan

Traditional AFCON power.

0

24:24 - 24:39 Roy

Power, right? You talk about the biggest teams in Africa, like the perennial, the Dukes, the North Carolinas of African soccer. It's Nigeria, it's Senegal, it's Ghana. Those are the three. And then everyone else kind of get in where you fit in. Algeria, I guess you could put them in there as well.

0

24:39 - 25:01 Roy

And so for Sudan to go and play against Senegal and not only come out with a draw, but like kind of should have won the game. And they should have won the game. It was something that was magical. And I was wondering, Mike, because you are a soccer guy, is this a story that's resonating with soccer people? I know Master Tisfacion went on Galazzo and he did a segment on it.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Roy

But for the soccer heads overall, is this a story that's resonating or is this still kind of nature?

00:00 - 00:00 Amin Elhassan

If you look across the globe, too, there's plenty of those stories, especially in the Middle East. There's a lot of countries that would make for incredible storylines if they were to make it to a World Cup, especially here in North America. Geopolitically, there's a lot that put the host committee in a precarious situation, although the World Cup usually transcends that stuff.

00:00 - 00:00 Amin Elhassan

But given the current climate, it'd be hard to ignore. I do think that it's resonating. You still have to seek it out. AFCON qualifying region does not get a lot of attention over here just because it's not readily available. You have to really seek this out.

00:00 - 00:00 Amin Elhassan

But as we march closer, I really do think that come summertime, with the formal ramp up of the Club World Cup that also kicks off down here in Miami, I believe with Inter-Miami, you're going to start seeing these media entities start putting together narratives as the picture becomes a little clearer. It's also a little bit difficult here in this country because I don't think...

00:00 - 00:00 Amin Elhassan

Like it's been damn near 30 years since the United States hasn't had to go through a qualification process. So things that happened last week with the United States losing. It doesn't matter to the people. It doesn't really resonate because all they know is World Cup. We're not really having our position jeopardized anyway because they've already qualified as a host nation.
