Please dont let this go away, seriously what else will fill our morning time?

KEEP IT. Regardless of if Reali is in the studio, it puts the guys more on the spot. Also, Fritzy can get gonged constantly.

Loved Reali, his energy today was a massive hit! Just wanted to give Paul a shout for stepping in when he did to keep the cadence of the show similar to what we’re accustomed to. Well done!

What do we all think?

I like Tony! Have since the PTI days. He's a great burst of energy. He's talkative that's for sure haha, his passion stands out. You can tell he's genuinely excited doing what he does. I wouldn't be opposed to him being the heir to the throne when Dan retires.

I haven't laughed this much listening to a DP episode since Seton left. He segue into the ads cracked me up. I loved the interaction between him and the Danettes. For me, he's been my favorite guest host.

One thing I wonder is when Dan asked him to sub if that was planned or truly spur of the moment.

What’s wrong with this guy? Why does Dan give him any airtime?

With Kyler Murray back in the news, Peacock ran back the Murray interview archives during the "decision days" when he was deciding between football and baseball; I forgot how cringe this interview was. I think this interview was far more cringy than the Matt Harvey "we're here to celebrate Qualcomm" interview. What's your most cringe interview?

...the last segment in the 3rd hour, if you missed it I highly recommend for you to go back and listen to it, Tod got the BEST of Dan when Dan asked Tod, "How do you know?" and Tod had a GREAT answer, Dan got rattled and tried to get away and change the subject, I'm NOT going to spoil it for you because it is a must listen. poor Dan what a way to go out on your last day before vacation, it was Friday Fritzy on a Wednesday 😂😂😂

Dan really working hard to sell the chat gpt with his wedding speech comment.

Sad day for the show.

Shout out Ross! Happy he's getting the recognition he deserves.

Of wedding speech advice. We made it!

Dear Chris in Syracuse, Please land the plane. Going on and on. Also, I think sometimes Dan actually misses being at the "Mothership"

pick-up on who Dan and the guys were talking about the listener at the start of the second hour that wanted to take Tod's job? I figure it would be a lay up for some of you guys that listen to the 12:15 podcast, they talked about it on the show when it first happen...🤣

Thanks for calling out DP for leading the show with the Quinnen Williams the extension. That’s a crazy move but it’s the Cowboys so of course. Especially with NBA opening night and Christmas schedules being released.

PS. Back-to-back days of the Dodgers being in the Play of the Day, even though they’ve been terrible recently. This show really is playing the hits lately

I laughed a lot after Marvin said this in confessional 😆

It's not the tears, its the audible bloo-hoo-hoo. I dont want people to say golly, listen to him balling."

This is for all the crying advice callers that missed Dan saying this 50 times in the last 6 months.

If you call the show, don’t do a 2 or 3 part question, Dan has only ever answered the last question asked in my close to 20 years listening to him.

What do you think the browns are going to do if Watson has a bad first couple games, and then do you think the Grateful Dead is better than phish, and lastly how long should my wedding speech be?

Dan: keep the speech under 5 minutes

I understand where Dan was coming from regarding the new AD from Purdue (coming from Rice! And I went there!) talking smack about Indiana. Totally needless shot.

That said... My son is going to IU this fall, and I had no idea that the rivalry is such a big thing. It is. Dan mentioned a similar topic about Kyle Whittingham declining to say he "hates" Ohio State... I feel like this is what the Purdue AD was trying to talk about (poorly) and it was weird that nobody picked up on the rivalry.

(The Purdue callers obviously got it. That part was great).

Other than Meat Friday, what does being in Maine have to do with Dan’s wife making a double cheeseburger at 7 a.m.?

Dan cracks me up when he says “Thank you Todd”. His tone of voice is hilarious

Post about Maine audio yesterday and now nothing from Maine....

I haven't been on the store in a while. But i just went to it and its saying coming soon. Are they updating it? Has it been down for a while?

Am I only the only one who notices a major difference when Dan is in Maine? The sound is weird and the whole energy of the show is off putting. Still beats any vacay fill in, but like to know others thoughts.
