Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: ...

Dan Le Batard, Stugotz
About this episode

In this episode of the Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show, Dan, Stugotz, and Mike explore the COVID era of the show. What began with fear and anxiety as a global pandemic unfolded eventually turned into what the guys consider one of the most creative eras of the show. You'll hear from all three about how the show stayed afloat during an unprecedented time despite early struggles with technology and communication. They also explore how creativity could run free due to the lack of sports and the desire so many creatives had to find a platform to express their voices during the shutdown. That all comes out in this week's supercut, which features some of the funniest bits from this time with the likes of Adam McKay, hilariously troublesome interviews like the show's infamous chat with Action Bronson, and the show's icy relationship with Michael Doleac.
