You're listening.

To.

Draftkings Network.

Welcome to The Big Suie.

Presented by DraftKings. Why are you listening to this show?

The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Levitard 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 walking past tables to grab somebody's fries if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys?

I've done it.

And.

Now here's The marching Man to Nowhere, Fatface, and The Habitual Liar.

I.

Do like Stugat, the ability to come over to Lucy or Jessica, sometimes it's less so Jessica now because she's been with us for a while, but introduce her to new show things, things that have happened, things that when we're at the watch party and people are coming over and they've been listening for 20 years, and they're listening for 20 years, three hours a day, and they remember this thing you did in 2004. I like introducing from our library some of that stuff to newcomers here who are new to the show and don't know who Lombardo is or any of the old jokes from the past. But how would you explain, Stugars, before we get to JuJu, because you have handed off… This is like a family heirloom being passed down. You are the head of Wake and Take. This is a part of your heredity. You love Juju. You and Juju are very close. Yes. You love the positivity of Juju, and you have entrusted him with this thing that means something to you. Wake and Take, for those of you who do not know, I would leave for an hour at the end of the show when we did it in the afternoons in Miami, and Stugatz, in that hour left to his own devices, did it in the laZiest way possible, demanding that the audience do the job for him, which is the opposite of what I did when I got into sports radio, a profession I chose because I was writing and writing and writing and it hurt and it was lonely.

Then I listened to radio and they were outsourcing the calls to Julio on a mobile, and the host was telling the guy in a car driving to work, You do my job for me. I'm like, I can do better than that with what's left.

Of my career. I remember thinking to myself early on, you nailed it, Ted. I do remember thinking- It's.

A perfect sentence not to nail when I'm struggling with what's left of my career.

I would say to myself, Man, this guy likes to talk. I got into this industry so that people could do the talking for me, and you really like to talk. Then we stopped taking calls, and it was really upsetting. I mean, my way is the easier way.

Probably the better way, truth be told, given how much I'm talking these days and slowly ruining, as I said, what is the… career. But wake and Take, what does it mean to you that you are handing over here.

To JuJu. I am proud to hand this over to JuJu. In fact, I would like to hand more things over to JuJu. I'm thinking about JuYA Gotts. I'm thinking about JuPoddy. How about that? I'll never have to work again.

Okay, but JuJu's got a lot of responsibilities these days. Yeah. Juju, I don't know how.

I've been-This is perfect for JuJu to take over, okay? Wake & Take is a perfect segment. He likes to talk to the people. I like to talk to the people. We don't talk to them nearly enough. No one is better and nicer with our listeners than JuJu. Therefore, this segment is perfect for him.

All right, I guess then we're going to do this here. I wasn't expecting to do this here, but for a couple of days, I've been wanting to talk to JuJu on and off air about some things to get that I believe that people don't consider when they don't think about, after Kevin Love tells you, I had panic attacks on the basketball court, and I'd have to run off the court because you got to take care of your mental health. You have to take care of your mental health. The story of JuJu with our show is one that gives me great pride for a lot of reasons, but mostly because we care about him, because he cares about us, because we don't have a more loyal soldier. And he has tattoos of the Cody's on his body because they saved his life, because laughter saved his life, because he felt pretty worthless. And he was in a despondent place. And he loved us from there because we reached him through laughter, and Greg Cody was his favorite. And during the pandemic, when it was lonely for a lot of us and difficult, and this was interesting because when you guys were talking about this yesterday about the pandemic, what you remember, what restaurant you were in and stuff, what I remember is just that it was all collapsing.

It felt like everything that we had built because I couldn't get a microphone from ESPN. And JuJu needed a job and we needed to start figuring out what our business was going to look like. Mike just knew that I would want just… Because Mike tries to take care of me and this, and he just knew that I would want JuJu working with us, for us, around us. And so we gave him a social media job. And it helped him during the pandemic because everybody was isolated. And that doesn't work for Juju. Juju, I don't mean to speak for you here. Forgive me for setting it up with rambling. But I just want to explain to people why Juju is being handed, waken, take at a time, where JuJu is rising in the company. We just talked to him recently about making sure that he's comfortable and safe in a lot of different ways. But I don't want to give him too many responsibilities because the amount he's got right now, totally overwhelming. It's not just totally overwhelming. He gets no days off. He's working day and night, and he gets the gratitude of our fans.

But what he also gets in that toxic pit that is social media is the worst of the anonymous racism. That's where he lives every day making art for us, like cooking for us. That's where he lives. I worry about his mental health, and I want to make sure that the responsibilities we're giving him are ones that he enjoys and are good for him. So forgive me for the ramble. But, JuJu, did I get much wrong there?

No, you're exactly right, brother. This show helped me in a dark time. I was sleeping outside behind Gladys Night Chicken and Waffles in Atlanta. I didn't have anything but a phone. I had an app, and I was like, Oh, damn, you can watch TV on ESPN? You can watch shows? I happened to catch a Greg Cody on Tuesday, and he was believing in the newspaper article so much. I was like, This is ridiculous. This is a dinosaur thing. I was like, You know what? If he believes in these old ass newspapers, let me get up and do something. I can do a little something. Let me buy me a coat or a middle light today. Let me get myself up and at them. He inspired a change within myself. I would always be grateful for him for that.

That's what JuJu is doing with Wake and Take. Let's name him General Caretaker because I'm tired of org charts. I'm not joking when I tell you that Mike Ryan refused the org chart. He demanded to be... I'm not making this up. Title Riz Reports to No One, and title is, Maker of Cool Shit. And JuJu is that, and I want him to replace Mike. Because JuJu's Positivity.

All of Mike's responsibilities?

Not all of them, but.

Just- Just.

The Positivity. Well, just all the… I'd like less intensity around here and more laughter.

Mike's intense, though.

Dance while I.

Damn the rambling man.

All right, I'm sorry. Stugart. Yes. How did you feel? Because you were not in here yesterday, and God-blessed football does not come out until tomorrow. So I want to get thoughts fresh before-The rigid thoughts, huh? I want to make God-blessed football sound dated tomorrow if you're talking about Cam Newton and game managers. When Cam Newton came out yesterday, this was interesting only because this is a conversation that everyone is having right now, but Cam Newton's opinion is the invalid one, even though we've still got Dan Arlofsky on television, who's excellent, by the way, but as a quarterback, what their credentials were on what it takes to be quarterback, I would say that Cam Newton had some gifts that Dan Arlofsky did not. Dan Arlofsky is allowed to analyze this in a way that gives his opinion without getting shouted down. Cam Newton does it his way, wearing a ridiculous hat, and we laugh at him.

He won a national championship. He won a Heisman Trophy. He went to the Super Bowl and won NFL MVP. He's the only quarterback in the history of football to do that.

Cam Newton could not play the game until he was 45 because he was right at the start of the revolution at the position. You're going to run. You're going to be Lamar Jackson, but you're going to do it in a giant body. And hey, guess what? Early 30s, you're totally done. Why is that? Oh, football's hard. What are you, an idiot? We basically aged Cam. I'm going to say Cam is walking around in all of those costumes, at least in part because his body is 747,000 years old. What do you think playing football the way he played it, where linebackers were afraid to collide with him? What do you imagine that does to him? What it did is spend an MVP's body so that by the end, he didn't have anything. Even Belichick couldn't do anything with it. There was nothing to be done because he wrecked his body. He gives these opinions that two as a game manager, all these people are game managers, and you say what?

They are game managers. It's okay to be a game manager, but people are discussing why that's an insult. It's fairly obvious as to why being a game manager, the term, is an insult. Let's make it a supermarket, Dan. Would you rather be the manager of the supermarket, or would you rather be the president of the supermarket? You'd rather be a game changer. You'd rather be the president. You don't want to be the game manager that says, Hey, Johnny, you know what? You stock the paper towels very well. Go to aisle four. You don't want to do that. You want to come in there. It doesn't matter who your staff is. It doesn't matter who's working for you. You're the reason that company, that team is good. And so when you call someone a game manager, you're calling them a manager. Imagine your parents, okay? When they tell their friends, Hey, my son, he's a manager at the local pharmacy. Now imagine if they were to tell their friends, Hey, he owns the pharmacy. He's the President of the pharmacy. You want to be the President of a football game. You don't want to manage a game.

It's a total insult. These guys are not Joe Borough. They are not Josh Allen. Those guys are bosses. They are not managers.

We did not need you to repeat.

Several times. No, you have to do it, dad. Hammer home the point.

You did not need to repeat several times that being the president is higher in the hierarchy than being the manager. Right. At a supermarket. I got it.

Well, it's important.

We got it. Okay, but it's also obvious. We got it. Right. It is also an insult to say of the game manager, which is what you're saying. He is not responsible for his or anybody's success. We just need him to basically hold the rudder, not do anything else. You're saying things that are so. What isn't quite as so is that he is dismissing Purdy and Doug Prescott, MVP candidates as game manager.

What he is saying is everything has to be right in order for those guys to succeed, unlike Josh Allen, where it doesn't matter if an offensive lineman is down. It doesn't matter if he's missing a wide receiver. He's going to come in and do what he has to do and win a football game. That's all they're saying. That's all Cam is saying, and I agree that's what Cam did.

But we're having a dumb argument at the center of none of us know how and why any of these people are good. Brock Purdy, nobody wanted him. Tom braided, nobody wanted him. The dumb conversation that we're having, it's not Cam Newton's fault. We're going to be having it for 5-10 years. The game is shrinking so that the best coaches are your value because they can scheme you up. The best coaches can scheme you past whoever it is, can't do this stuff with motion and get everybody speed all over the field. So if you're going to do it like that, if McDaniel and Chanahan are making it so that... Quarterback doesn't have to be that good. Do you realize how valuable they then are? And we're going to have this conversation in Sally Crap Sport about all.

Of the quarterbacks. It makes them the most valuable.

Okay, but they can beat Josh Allen because he runs around, but he turns it over. They can beat Josh. What's happening is a shift in the entire sport that's going to make the measurements of this even harder because we don't know with any of these guys, Purdy is going to win MVP. Game manager, Alex Smith was never going to win any MVP. We're there already. It's crazy that we're there already.

Don Levitard. Trist and Shout. Stugats. Trist and Shout. This is the Don Levitard.

Show with the Stugats. You never know.

You.

Never know. You never know. You nevernever know. You never know. You never Welcome to the brand new edition, the brand new version of Waking Tate, baby. I got takes, I got questions, I got answers. But you got to call and get up out of me, Daddy. You feel me? But first, we interview no damn body because this show is about the fans. You have a voice that has been unheard for too damn long. And today is your day to get that heard. Taylor, salute to you my brother in the back. Load up these calls. We ain't going to waste too much time. Let's hear what the fans got to say. Oh, the listeners, pardon me. Hello, Ski. Where are you calling from, Ski?

Juju, Virginia. What's up? It's your boy, Kyle.

Hey, Virginia in the building. You dig? Are you a Push a T fan? Are you a Neptuneons? Salute to the Neptuneons, man. We're outside, Doc. How are you doing, brother?

Good, brother. How are you.

Doing, Juju? Man, I'm just trying to make it, man. In the evil world, trying to put out some light, man. Put out a couple of fires here and there with this water of fucking love you dig. What's your tape, brother? I feel it.

You are always giving love. You are always putting good energy, JuJu. We need a podcast with you and Tony and all things hip hop. That's what we need. You guys are the...

Thank you so much, brother. I'm going to call you back whenever it's time for my yearly meeting, and we're going to put you in front of the people who make the decisions around here and let you get that take- That's right, JuJu. Because I really appreciate it, man. We try hard, man, to get a little bit of the real estate around here respectfully. You know what I mean? And I think that this is one of the first steps for them allowing me to have a little more real estate, brother. So I appreciate you for sharing it with me, man. What's your tape, man?

You keep killing it with the social media, man. I think Rivera is gone and he's going to end up taking a college job somewhere and.

That's it. And he's done. Damn, you want to tell my riverboat Ron?

That's it. He's done. Ron is gone. He got no guns left. He's terrified.

Damn, not my dog in Washington. Man, hey, they not looking too good, though. And I think that they're more talented than their record displays. You're absolutely right I.

Think so too. My boy, Dodson, my boy, Terry, man, they are two killers out there on the receivers, dude. They are. How is this one here, too?

Right. And I don't even think they get them involved in the offense as much as they should. You know what I mean? They lean on a lot of big... Salute to big, Bryan Robertson. Salute to big, A. Gibson. You feel me, Antonio?

Yes, that's right. Rodriguez too, other running back.

Yeah, they did. You feel me? But I definitely feel you, man. You can get that offense going a little bit more fine-tuned than it is right now as well as everything else, man. So yeah, definitely a respectable take of yours. You feel me? We going to keep this thing rolling every week. I appreciate your time and your energy. Please call us back, bro.

Thank you, brother. Juju, you are the man, dude. Thank you, brother.

Thank you, man. You're the man, though. Yes, sir. What's happening?

Juju, how are you doing?

Man, we're chilling, man. We're in the MIA-O, brother. How are you doing?

Man, it's 40 degrees in Minnesota. It might as well be 100.

Guys, what's your name, brother? My name is Andy. Andy. Salute to Andy. Is it Andrew?

It's Andrew, but nobody calls me that. And nobody calls me Andy either. Most people call me by my last name, which is Kenan.

Oh, nice. Hi, did you see the new Good Berger?

Yeah, you were the 9000th person that.

Asked me that. Sorry for that, brother. What's your take?

Hey, you know what? Two things. Two guys needs to just do drugs on the air. Like cut out the middle man. You're just wasting everybody's time. Just do it. Chris Cody, too. You're not fooling anybody. Come on, man.

Damn, bro. You said cut out the middle man. Just do the drugs. When you're not doing it, just do it. Don't do it in a cluster. Okay, you got another one.

Also, Juju, they are underutilizing you. The fact that your name comes up the most when Dan says, put it on the pole, please, Juju, we don't even see you most of the time. That's ridiculous.

If.

Nothing else, you should be on with David Samson because Matthew Coker is an.

Imaginary friend.

You should be the one on there that actually talks to him so it's not just him by himself. Also, have you ever noticed that David Samson is the friend that he's cool when it's just you two hanging out? But if somebody else is there, he's a pain in.

The ass. Don't do my dog like that. No, bro. David Samson is good in all weathers. You feel me? He is fantastic, a great friend. I've had some down moments. You feel me? Off the record, let's cut the cameras, but off the record, me and David Samson have had some heart to heart whenever I was not doing necessarily my most confident act, whenever I was doing bad, you know what I mean? I feel like he gets a bad rap because of the person he plays on the show. But I feel you, man. From your standpoint, I definitely understand. I will pass the message along to Chris, Cody, and Stugots to do the drugs. You feel me? Give me your the best, man. Thank you. Thank you, brother. I appreciate you so much and your time, man. Thank you so much. Hello, Carla. How are you doing? Who am I talking to? Oh, my God.

Juju. Oh, my God. You're my favorite. Sorry. My name's Taylor. I live.

In Iowa. Hey, go Hawks. You feel me? Salute, Taylor. How are you doing today? Oh, Lucy.

Is my absolute favorite. Yes, she is. I have my husband, Grant, here.

What's up, Grant? I'm on the show. What's up, Grant? What a do, Grant. How are you doing, bro? What? It's a do, Grant. How are you doing, bro?

What a do.

Whatshe ain't lying. I'm in this game. What do you do? What's up, my boy?

Day one. Holy shit. It's Juju. Salute, you.

Good, sir. Thank you. Salute back at you all, man. Power couple. Salute, man. What you all take?

Oh, my God. Oh, not take. Oh, you got a son. Man, screw the NBA. Screw this- The in-season tournament? I like the in-season tournament.

I like it, too. I like it, too, bro. I feel like it's geared towards the kids. I don't think it's supposed to be for us a little bit, because when you look at the TV and you see that blinding court coming off the screen, I think that's marketed for the kids. I don't know. What's your take, though? Why don't you like the the tournament, bro?

Oh, man. See, now you got to play all logical. That's so true, though. Okay, I get it. I get it. I only didn't like it, honestly, because I was a day one. I grew up on Sacramento, Kings, Bivvy.

Ai, Kobe. You grew up on Sacramento Kings? That's sad, bro.

You ain't the only one that's trouble, JuJu.

You're not the only one. Pajor, Stojaka, bitch, and them boys.

Is this real? This is real.

This is real, man.

Oh, my God.

Where are you.

Up to? What are you doing, boy?

Am I on? I'm in the MIA right now sitting in the dance chair, taking the first call is for the first the Inaugural segment of The Waking Tate. We rehashing it, man, and I appreciate you all so much for being a part.

Of that. We're on the first one?

Yeah, we're going to put this out, man. You dig? Everybody in Iowa, stand up.

All right, well, I just want.

To.

Say that... I've done a lot of that. Grantson, living in Georgia over 10 years, but I started a couple of years ago, and Tomethi is the reason that I care about sports. Thank you. And Smeddy walks, so that Lucy.

Could run.

For Iowa football. And I just want to say that.

And Lucy's.

Running for Iowa football because we all know.

Nobody else is running for Iowa.

You got that damn right. Thank you all so much for calling, man. Appreciate you all. Thank you so much, too, Jeff. I love you guys so much more. Thank you, man. Yes, sir, man. Look, man, we're getting so much love on the Waking Tate. We might need to change that Waking Tent to a B, that W, Baking Tate, because that's more representative of what's going on right now. Yeah, there, Ski. Tell her what's next.

Hello, what's going on?

What it do, Ski? You are on the line right now with the kid, JuJu, Goddy. We are calling you back. What's your take, my brother?

Hey, you.

Know what? You're my brother. You know what I'm saying, man? You feel me? Yes, sir, I do.

Yeah, my take is that press guy. You know what I'm saying? He doesn't get quite the respect that he should. Everybody talking about John L in.

That ugly-faced mug. Don't do that.

He does not get the credit he deserves. He got fewer turnovers, more better touchdowns, better pass-around rating. It's a crime. You know what I'm saying?

Hey, bro, what's your name and where you calling from, brother?

My name is Big Jake from Wisconsin.

Hey, salute to Wisconsin and on Badgers. Hey, man, look, at this current moment, you're right, bro. If you stop the NFL right now, the Coda Press guy is the MVP. You have no arguments or qualms from me. You dig. But my dog, Josh, she ain't got a ugly face. She ain't got to do it like that, do you?

Yeah, but I'm just showing support for my boy, Billy Gill.

He.

Says some crazy stuff from time to time, but you know what? You got to get behind his back. He's so supportive and he backs everybody else up, especially Greg Cody. He needs support himself even on the wacky stuff. But JuJu, shout out to you, man. You're the man. You bring the positive vibes. I know you hear it all the time, but it's true. And just keep paying it forward. You're the reason why we.

Keep listening, man. Thank you so much, brother. I really appreciate you, man, for your time and your energy, man. Salute to you, bro. Yes, sir. Hello, Ski.

Hello, Ski, JuJu.

Hey, what a hat? What a dude? Who am I talking to and where you from?

Johnny Walker from Cincinnati.

Hey, Johnny Walker. You get the cash. You feel me? What did do, man? You a big Joe Borough fan.

Big Joe Borough fan. Can't believe her.

Him and Jamar, dog. You got to dig it, man. What's your tape, family?

My take is that the Bulls and the Eagles are doing you wrong by splitting up your allegiances.

Thank you. Thank you, brother. I cannot salute to you, brother. Last Sunday was the worst Sunday I've had in a whole bunch of Sundays. I'm sitting there celebrating each and every play from both ends of the field. Sack with Josh Allen. Oh, damn it. Good sack. Thank you so much for feeling for the kid, man. I feel for you as well because Joe Borough, I feel like if they didn't lose that specific person and that specific risk, dare I say, they would have been right where they're supposed to be in the playoff talk, first place AFC again. Man, get well soon, Joe Borough. They were coming on. Absolutely, man. Anything else you want to get off your chest, bro?

No, just that next time when the Bulls and Eagles have to play, they just need to join teams and they can be the Beagles.

Oh, I like that. The Beagles. Yeah, I dig. The Beagle. Thank you for your time and your energy, brother. I really appreciate you, man.

You too.

Love you, JuJu. Love you more. Don Libertard. You got to know I'm a big Colombo guy. Salute to that boy.

Okay. I don't think that's true. Idon't think that's true. I think that could be a lie. I don't think that's a lie. I don't think that's a lie.

He said, Salute.

I don't think that is evidence. Salute to that boy. It suggests camouflage. It suggests that JuJu has no idea what we're talking about, and now is just Googling it. Stugarts.

I'm not Googling it. My grandmother stayed in the country. I watched The Braves. I watched Colombo. I watched Matlock. I watched Andy Griffin. I'm not a fan of you, sir. But you go to the pill in the box, damn. You take your ass to the.

Pill in the box.

You tough, JuJu. You tough, JuJu. Back to you, Stu. This is.

The Don't Live At Far's show.

With the Stoo Guides. Yes, sir, man? Hey, man. Salute to everybody calling in, man. We appreciate you more than you appreciate us. Times a thousand. You dig me. What they do, dog? You're on the line with JuJu, Got it? What a do, my brother. What's your name? Where you calling from?

My name is Juan. I'm from Harris. I'm living in Harrisburg, PA, but originally from Miami.

Hey, what part of Miami are you from, brother?

Kindel.

Hey, Kindel. Stand up. Soyeah.

Salute to A-Rod. So these guys know I won the Cloud, Pepp, Elementary, Hammack, Middle.

School, Sunset.

In Miami Sunset.

You're feeling me? The Deets. Yes, sir. Salute to you, brother. Thank you for your time, man. What's your tape, brother? What you want to get off your chest, man?

Now, so quickly. When do they choose who's going to go see the football game with you guys?

Right? I know we got the event coming up on the 11th, and I know it's pretty much open no matter what age you are. But I'm not sure the winning process. That might be my bad. You caught me in the awkward spot because I didn't talk to Mike or none of the people in charge. But I think it got to be this week coming up because the event is coming up in a week and a half. So stay tuned this week for sure, man. Thank you so much for your time and your energy, bro. Anything else you got?

Nah, man, I just want to say what's up? And I love the show. I listen to you guys every day religiously because I'm a truck driver, so I drive all day.

Yes.

Sir, man. No, I'm listening to you guys, man. Hey, I'm sorry, but Buffalo sucks, man.

Oh, right, then the Gonads.

Also, one more thing, Georgia, one more thing. I also lived in Georgia myself for.

Nine years. Yeah, salute, brother. Hey, man, you hit me with the Buffalo. I ain't going to lie to you. Your Buffalo tick hit me square in the heart. So salute to you, brother. Thank you for your time and your energy. Call again next week. You did me. Yes, sir. How are you doing? Hello? What are doing man? Who am I talking to? Where are you from, brother? What's your name?

Yeah, this is Assa and holding down Greenville, South Carolina.

Hey.

Take your shirt out of South Carolina. Switch around your damn head like a helicopter. Just like the north dude. Salute to you, man. How are you doing? What's your take, brother?

Man, I got a take, man. I got a take. There's this media company, a conglomerate, as you will, called Metal Lark, and they got this talent called JuJu, who's in the music scene. And that commentator that needs to have a music podcast. Oh, that's better. Something, man. Do you know what I mean?

I do know what you mean, brother, and I feel exactly where you're coming from. I don't know. I mean, we need to speak to the powers that be. I might need to hit you up when the meeting to get arranged. I need you in the meeting with me because I like what you're putting down, brother.

Man, I'll bring receipts, man. I got every release on podcast, on every release on playlist, man. I got it spinning. I mean, someone's got to hold down Atlanta, right?

Thank you, brother. Thank you so much, brother. For real, for the bottom of my heart, for real. This show and all this shit, bro, I really appreciate it, bro, for real, dog. Because I've been in so many dark places and so many insecure moments that this right here actually is the thing that I need, bro. So I appreciate you. I salute you. I thank you, bro. Thank you for calling in. Thank you for your time and your energy. Salute, man. Call back again anytime you dig.

I got you, JuJu. Salute, man.

Keep it real. Yes, sir, man. This is nothing but love, man. We opened this up, I thought we was going to get a whole bunch of hate, but we getting a whole bunch of love, man. Salute to Earth, planet Earth, man. Love is everywhere.

Waking tank.

Yes, Ski. You already know Ski. Who am I talking to Ski? Where you calling from Ski?

Juju, sallute to you. This is Dylan from Cape May, New Jersey.

Hey, sallute to AJ. You did. That's where my daddy from. Salute to you, brother. What's your take?

My take is, I know Billy has been rolling with an iron fist, and I don't want to get in the way of that. But someone's got to hold some of these.

Jokers accountable over there. You did.

The Tyler Hero, Tyrese Maxi debate with Jeremy, Mike Ryder. You got.

To straight those boys out. You're right about that. Hey, I haven't thought about that since they said that bullshit on camera and on live TV. They said that to everybody to America. Tyrese Maxi. Many weeks. They ain't even clean it up. They ain't even put a bullet on it. You are exactly right, brother.

You're not going to have to straighten them out.

Hey, hey, you might be right, bro. And we can start it here. Brother, Tyrese Maxeys is so much better than Tyler Hero. That is ridiculous. Tell him, bro. It is.

Hey, well done.

I appreciate you, too, bro. You're feeling well said. Thank you for your time and your energy, bro. Call back anytime. What a douchie? We on the line. Who am I talking to? Where you from?

Oh, my God. My brother, Jesus. This is Swillow from North Jersey.

Hey, Big Jersey in the building. You dig?

I saw that you guys text me saying, Please call us back. Thanks. And I thought it was a bot messaging me.

I said, No, stop calling me. We got started a little late. We had the footgirls in here going crazy, man. They talking about all the college football that you need this weekend. You dig? So we got a little later start than we was supposed to, man. What's your take, brother?

Oh, man, my tape is really just a take of appreciation, man. Salute to you, everybody in the show. Dan, Stugots, Lugots, my boy, Juugaz, that I see you. Charlotte Wilder, the wild things I see you talking about me. File this right now. Billy Gale, Chris Cody, Greg Cody.

And you know it. And you know it.

This is my boy, Roy. Ten-day, Tony, continue on.

I don't have a.

Hard take, man. I just wanted to say I appreciate you all so much, man. You all bring me joy every single day, man. Every day since, like 2016, man. I got nothing but love for.

Everybody, you all. Thank you so much, bro. Thank you so much. In a world full of hate, in a world full of hate, your love is shining, bro. We appreciate it so much, dog. I'm going to let everybody know and they're going to hit it. You feel me? Thank you so much, bro. Salute to you back, man. Salute to my dog back in big Jersey, man.

Come on, man. Salute to you, my brother. Juju, you have a good day, my brother. You the.

Best, man. Thank you. You too, brother. Thank you for your time, man.

Man, you have a great one, man.

Bye-bye, man. For sure. My dog said bye-bye. I ain't heard a bye-bye in a little while. My dog said bye-bye. What a do dog? Who am I talking to where you from, Ski?

Oh, my God. It's JuJu, Adam from Connecticut, man.

Hey, go Yukon, go Huskies. You did me. How are.

You doing, man? No, sir. I'm originally a Buckeye.

Oh, OH. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm not even going to do that right now. Salute to Big Blue. Salute to everybody.

It's all good, man. It's all good.

Salute to Masarati Marv as well. Do you like that name? Masarati Marv?

It's growing on me. It's growing on me. I was disappointed we didn't get the W last week because I think he should be higher in the Heisman rankings, man. He's been tearing it up this year.

You're right about that, bro. I was putting for you all a little more because I was still coming out of Michigan right now. I don't know. It's a little corny, but Salute, man. What's your tape, brother?

I just wanted to call and thank you guys, man. My wife and I lost our first pregnancy earlier this year.

Oh, man. I'm so.

Sorry, brother. No, it's all good, man. But you were talking earlier this year about going through some depression in your life. And Dan has also talked about the loss of Libo and how that's impacted him. And I think that hearing you guys talk so openly about your mental health and your emotional state has allowed me to be vulnerable and talk about those things as well. And you guys give me something to look forward to. March is when this all happened, and I was going through probably one of the darkest times in my life. But this show is something that I tuned into every day and just helped me laugh and helped me get through what was really a challenging time. And so I've got nothing but love for all of you all. You guys are just phenomenal.

Bro, thank you so much for allowing us in your life at all, bro. Definitely, my deepest sympathies and my deepest support and condolences for you and your wife, bro. No words I can say or nothing I can even prepare can even relate to the pain that's caused by that, bro. I'm so sorry that you guys are going through that, man. I know that the dark- What did you.

Say, bro? Just talking to you. Honestly, I love everybody on the show, but I've got to say, above all, I'm a huge JuJuGoddy fan. I tune in for you. And SuGox is my boy, too. But you guys are just... You feel like family to me. Thank you, brother. And I appreciate it.

I'm happy to be your family. Thank you so much for those kind words, brother. I know it's always darkest before the dawn, man. I know that these words can mean nothing. No doubt. But I know that this season of your life and you and your wife... It can be overwhelming and it can be overwhelming and it can be the worst. But this is not going to last. This feeling, this vibe, this shadow, brother, this cloud, it's not going to last. I know God or whoever you believe in has something prepared for you a bit, blessing coming up soon, man. I'm so thankful for your words, so thankful for your energy, and hit me up on the DM or whatever you need, bro. I'm here for you, bro. More than this call, this call is for the show. But, brother, I've been through a lot in my life where I know for a fact that if I had someone there to just tell me it's okay, or I feel you, or I understand, or it's not going to last, I would have been way better off. So thank you so much, brother, for even thinking of calling us.

And thank you for so much for allowing us into your life and your energy, bro. Salute to you, man.

And your wife. Salute to you, man. Salute to you, too, man. Thank you very much. Yes, sir. Take care.

You too, brother. Call again. We're going to do this next week. We on the line. Hello, Ski. Who am I talking to?

Juju. What's good.

My brother? What's good, my brother? What's your name again, my brother? I talked over you. I'm a bad host. What did you say again?

You straight. My name is Rodney.

Hey, what's up, Rodney? Where you from?

I'm from New York.

Hey, how you feel about with Draymond talking about some Rodney? What you feel about that clip? Rodney is a gangster name to me. I know a whole bunch of gangster Rodney. You did.

You all be killing me with that clip because you all be disparaging my name. But that's a funny ass clip, though.

I like it.

We never hear.

That shit. You're right, man. Draymond put the humor on that motherfuck. But get what? I know some gangster writing, so I already know what time it is, bro. What's your take?

Bro, I ain't even got to take. I needed some advice.

Okay, here we are. Kelly Rowland. Nelly, what are we doing?

This is where I'm at right now. I got a daughter. She's two years old.

Okay. All right?

My fiancé, she's out of town right now. My daughter's at my parents' house.

Okay.

And they're offering for her to spend the night there. It'd be the first time. I'm scared for that to happen. There's a lot of going on. Yeah. And it's my first child. But also I ain't had the house to myself in a long time.

All right. You were at the Nelly part of the song, the dilemma. Okay, cool. So this is what I think. Have they ever let you down? Your mother-in-law and your father-in-law, have they ever let you down in any way possible?

No, these are my parents.

Oh, your parents. Excuse me. Well, I mean, hey, that's a say less. I think you should enjoy the weekend, brother. Watch all the college football and eat all the bonbons you want to. In my opinion, you dig.

That's how I feel it. But I needed someone to validate that sandwich, you know what I mean? Who else to call, but.

You got it. Just stop by on the way out Saturday tonight. Just stop by and give her a kiss. Thank you so much for your time, brother. Salute. Hey, call back next week. I'll hang up with you. I'll hang up with you. This week. Yes, sir. All right. For sure. Hey, man. Salute to everybody who called, man. That right there is the first installment, man, of the Baking Tate. I mean, excuse me, the Waking Tates, you dig? Without stew guts, you know what I mean? We're going to get it together and we're going to get more efficiency as we grow. Salute to Rose, Salute to my daughter, Thomas, just for no reason at all. Salute to my daughter, Thomas. Salute to Taylor. Salute to my daughter, John Reed and everybody else who helped this production come to life. You dig? I'm so appreciative of this platform that you guys don't even understand, man. We're going to try to do this every week from now on. But if we don't, man, have patience with us, then we're going to pick it up as soon as I get back down to Miami, man. Salute to the 305.

Salute to everybody who loved the Levitah show. Salute to Dan. Thank you, brother. We're going to be back next week. Same bat time, same bat channel. Lord willing. Salute.
