*** The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz *** (1 Viewer)

Seriously one of the smartest and funniest sports-related talk shows out there. Dan is very good with language juxtaposed by Jon who is just a buffoon. Used to listen from time to time, but now I am a loyal fan.

Quote from last week: (while discussing various wiping styles)

"It's like cleaning peanut butter from a shag carpet with a dry mop."

:lmao:

 
I'm a huge fan, love the Lebatard show.  Definitely not for everyone.  I hated Stugotz at first, then tolerated him, now i've accepted him for who he is.  He's Yin to Dan's Yang.  

 
He's ok.  It's a countdown with him to talk about race which drives me crazy.  I also don't think they are that funny.  Kinda liked cowherd more

 
Not a big fan. It's not awful, they're just not that interesting. Also LeBatard's voice is annoying - he tends to shrill and whiney.

 
Dan admits that he is an anarchist. Remember that he sold his Hall of Fame Vote a few years ago, and now he is no longer able to vote.

Disney presented him with a Pluto pin for 5 years of service at the company. Dan decided to auction it off for charity because he thinks it is a crummy gift. To which I agree. I've received many service gifts, and they are usually pretty awful. I'd rather not get a gift at all. I think he raised $1500-2000 for The V Foundation for the Pluto pin. Not sure if Disney/ESPN is punishing him for the act.

 
Haven't heard the whole show today, but seems like Dan is on the brink of a nervous breakdown. Needs a sabbatical or is ready to end the show. He is upset with Stugotz's incompetence. 

Also, Dan seemed to announce the impending end to Mike & Mike, and then suddenly went quiet because it's not his to announce.

Same.  It was so brutal at first ESPN quickly made mike & Mike a 6 hr broadcast.  It's gotten better but still has a LOT of dead air time rabble that isn't entertaining to me. 

The fighting/complaining shtick is a daily occurrence that's stale IMO.

Hit an miss for me.

 
Thought it was common knowledge Mike and Mike were done?  

The segment where they say what famous people look like is pretty funny.  I miss Jim Tomsula simply for their riffs on him.  Those were good.

That one with Christopher Guest the other day was brutally awkward.  But still entertaining.  

I basically look at his show as the sports radio version of Howard Stern.  Not the crude stuff or anything, but that half the show is talking about the show itself and the interactions between the "characters."

 
I'd rather watch just about anyone else on ESPN than him.  Whenever he is a guest host on PTI, I immediately turn it off and erase that episode (since I DVR it).  Just an awful TV personality.
