The whole conversation about the glovebox and what it spiraled into was classic show and I loved it 😂😂😂

[@dannyvandan_]

lol hell yeah! When everyone is engaged AND they don’t have so many other responsibilities, it’s possible. They were cooking and played classic defense against Dan. I love that they all have other shows and pods but it’s hard to get the classic shows when, understandably, they have all have a lot going on

As a pizza delivery driver without GPS, you just had to learn the streets.

[@tellinitMYway]

We had a giant map of the delivery area on a wall and drivers would plan out routes

[@adriannemarie19]

That financial scam is so common. Just three weeks ago my close friend was scammed in nearly the same way. $11k. I wanted to send this to her so she can be reminded that she’s not the only one who has been through such things but I can’t now bc of she’s going to hear ‘stupid,’ ‘idiot’ etc.

[@fruitingfungi]

Over the weekend this 50k story comes out.....Stugotz takes the week off 🤔

[@lepton4]

Until 2008 - I had a Rand McNally map book in the car.... for long trips (CT to NC for example)- you would call AAA to get a Triptik........ As an Uber driver- I appreciate when the client helps me get them to their destination. It is their trip, if they know the best way - they should say something. The GPS is only doing what it is programed to do - which is not always the best route.

[@williestyle35]

I used to always keep a "local street atlas" in my car. My wife and I used a book of Florida state wide street maps and AAA travel guides / Triptiks on our Honeymoon. We traveled from Central Florida, to Florida's West Coast - Tampa Bay to Naples, then across to Miami / South Beach, up to Fort Lauderdale / Boca Raton (Lauderdale By the Sea was fantastic for us), back up to the Orlando / Sanford area - all using maps and AAA Triptiks. good times man, good times 😊

I watched the 1987, 1988, 2001, 2006, 2013, 2016 All-Star games & those game were great.

[@williestyle35]

Those were some very good All - Star games. The 1984 "Legends game" was pretty good. I am partial to the 1988 All - Star game in Chicago, because of MJ and I am from Chicago, lol.

[@twobarsfourstars]

It’s nuts how much that story is identical to every scammer payback story, the scammers give people verbiage on how to explain it to your bank where taking out a large payment isn’t as shady as it looks. They pressure and browbeat the shit out of their victims and pray off that victim blaming you brought up until it’s too late.

[@_jaimerojas]

Exactly! This isn't a laughing issue no matter how funny the story may be objectively. The joking about it from the shipping container really upset me

[@MisterGravelrama]

This was one of the best/funniest episodes ever! Dan confusing the UPS & Uber at the end has me crying laughing. Thank you for the entertainment. Love you guys!

[@rapalbumdepot7648]

Later in his career it became clear that Stu Gotz' strength was that he didnt care like at all. From the makers of FanDuel comes a story that reminds us that the real duels are the fans we drafted along the way.

35:01 That was super funny. The visual of Dan just rooming into a UPS truck looking for an Uber ride was hilarious. I am old enough that when I delivered pizzas we didnt have smart phones. You just knew the way. You got lost a couple times and just kept getting in the car and figuring it out. You know like learning it.

[@andyreed498]

WHY WERE YOU IN THE UPS TRUCK?

Golden content this hour 😂

[@nickgoetz5416]

a Thomas Guide would blow Tony's mind... a book of maps that many contractors used before GPS...

[@AsherGrace7]

My local bank could never. Mine literally makes you call a day ahead of time if you're gonna take out more than $5k. During certain times of day, they don't even have more than $10k on hand.

[@stuchan3326]

Dan might be worried that John Quinones from “What Would You Do? will jump out and he doesn’t want to be the guy in the nice car rolling up his window and driving off. Or maybe he just has a big soft spot.

[@tellinitMYway]

A bank will definitely ask questions if you withdrawal that much. They might even file a suspicious activity report depending on your answers. Plus when i worked at a bank we would have made you scheudle in advance for a cash withdrawal of that size since wr would need to order extra cash from the Fed.

[@dudeseriously57]

I stand with Chris on this one; Nobody cares if the Allstars play hard because there are no ramifications if they don't play hard. 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

[@TheRedBlackGold]

That's a weak reason. Players used to have more pride in their game that's facts. You get that one time out of the season to bring the "ALLSTARS" of the league together and put them in two teams to see who's the top dog and put on a show for everyone. But not these players this year... these players are good but bum characters and divas. They can't be bothered.

I delivered pizza in the mid-oughts, and although it was only in a town of 15,000, I still had to look at the rollout paper map for some of the random side roads. Also, James Mulvaney had that joke about grid systems. Loved that whole last segment.

there were things called paper maps the folded up and were put in the glove box. also kept in the glove box registration.

[@WorldB403]

Tony, go for a drive without your phone (i know, it'll be torture), and try to get lost. Then figure your way back. GPS is a blessing, but, it can also be a crutch. Learn your streets. Safe driving.👍🏾

[@Chuuk2Hawaii]

Chris and Jess don't care about the NBA so of course they don't care about what happened. It was a joke of a weekend and game. Embarrassing. Also, Dan, keep being naive. Everyone is too jaded and cynical.

[@brockontop]

Quite literally just an exhibition game with no stakes. Ring culture has made it so that nothing matters until June.

[@Chuuk2Hawaii]

@brockontop As an NBA fanatic for multiple decades, I can see the iceberg in front of us. The NBA is on a direct path and is doing nothing but going full speed ahead. There are many problems with NBA culture, ring culture is but one subset of it.

[@halo43v3r7777]

I work for a SSA and we absolutely have to make calls sometimes to obtain specific information. However we always say that if they aren’t comfortable resolving the issue over the phone we will contact by mail or they can visit their local field office in person. Also it definitely shows up in your caller ID that you are receiving a call specifically from SSA and I’m pretty sure that’s hard for a scammer to spoof. We also don’t really use SSNs over the phone when calling we will usually use other means to confirm someone’s identity. Can’t really speak for IRS or any other govt agency so YMMV.

[@scottstyles1986]

[@CarsonHassler]

Gotta give it to Jessica today. Hilarious!

[@jano6940]

I lived in Glendale, AZ and the grid system is super easy to understand. Phoenix makes it easy.

[@justified004]

The problem is that there aren't enough superstars to bridge the gap between the old and young stars. 11 players with 3 or fewer All-Star selections but the league wants to rely on guys over 35yo who play limited minutes in the game. New guys like Luka, Towns, and Edwards said they don't care with their actions. Guys like Brunson, Paolo and Maxey don't have the experience or clout to lead the game.

[@Johnny-n3j]

[@ejkboxing]

Chicken wings over pizza. I never had pizza as a kid (except the elementary school pizza). Also, I'm the FIRST guy to order pineapples & chicken on pizza. Back in 1989 in Sumter S.C. both Domino's & Pizza Hut chains advertised you can have anything you want as toppings. I forget which one I went to first. but I ordered it & they said they didn't have any pineapples. I said "Yall advertised I could have anything I want. One lady found a can of pineapples & was really happy. She opened the can & the Pizza Hut or Domino's lady asked, "How do I this?" I said, "Don't pour any juice on it, just take the pineapples & put them on the pizza & heat it up." Then she asked if she could have a taste & then said, "Wow, I'm adding this to the menu." Then I told her "Add chicken as a topping also." I went to the other pizza chain the next day & ordered pineapples & chicken toppings. They said, "we don't have those as toppings." I said, "your competition does." They said, "really?" I said, "as of yesterday, yep." They added it to their menu. My job sent me to Hawaii then Australia a few months later & I ordered pineapples & chicken pizza. They charged me $30, in both places, for ordering "special toppings." I paid it because I really wanted it & I could afford a $30 pizza. True Stories.

[@themediumprofessor]

I could see an ASG where rosters are the same size but it's 3-on-3, half court like the Big 3. Increases the chances that one of the guys on the floor actually cares. There should probably be some sort of incentive for the MVP ($1M?) but make it truly a street ball game. No fouls. KRS-One announcing the starters, talking smack during the game, and performing at halftime. It's ASG but make it Rucker.

[@ericwhitlow6458]

another great workout session !!!!!

[@KnataGuy]

I’m mid-50’s and grew up with 80’s & 90’s basketball and was a fanatic through 2010’s. ASW was my favorite weekend of the year. More than March Madness. More than SuperBowl. It was awesome. Friday night legends game or whatever to get the party started. All Star Saturday had Spud vs Nique. Larry with ‘which of you assholes is coming in 2nd?’ And MJ being MJ. THE GAMES WERE COMPETITIVE. Three quarters were for the fans but the 4th was for pride. Go back and watch the 2013 4th quartet when Kobe decided Lebron was done. Go watch him do the same in 2010. Or go watch Jordan as a Wizard and how THAT game ended. Think they weren’t trying? Then came Lebron. He ruined everything about basketball except the 3pt thing. That was the Warriors. And is a simple fix - do away with it. It was an ABA gimmick. But if your Center can shoot 40% from it, does it really deserve an extra point. The answer is not a 4pt shot. It’s handchecking and 2pts per basket, one per free throw. Fair is fair. But yeah man Lebron ruined the game. I stopped watching around 2015. This year I can barely name the players. The NBA is trash now. Literal trash. And the ratings say so.

He knows what will keep him playing into his 40s. Yes, pro sports is becoming more of a spam and scam to put ads and subscriptions. It is less about the competion
