Steven Cheah Was Almost Attacked By A Fluffy White Dog | The Yak 3-10-26

Dan describes 'French hours' as a film production schedule where there are no formal lunch breaks; instead, food is continuously rolled out throughout the day. This allows production to continue without interruption, with crew members grabbing food as needed. Ironically, in France, outside of filmmaking, lunch breaks are typically one to two hours long.

Dan recounts his experience on a movie set in Winnipeg where 'French hours' meant omelets at 6 AM, sandwiches at 9 AM, Indian food and chicken tenders at 11 AM, pasta at 1 PM, and tacos at 3 PM. Wikipedia confirms the irony regarding France's typical long lunch breaks.

Prompted by a Philadelphia Flyers player's tattoo of the Statue of Liberty's arm and torch, the hosts collectively 'discover' and comically assert that the torch, particularly its underside, bears a striking resemblance to a penis. This leads to an extended segment of visual gags, crude humor, and speculation about the French sculptors' intentions.

The hosts analyze images of the tattoo and the actual Statue of Liberty, performing physical comedy to illustrate their point. They discuss historical context, noting the torch-bearing arm was the first part displayed in Philadelphia, and mention a rumor that the torch was intended to represent Osiris's phallus.

Steven Cheah recounts an incident where he used an air horn on a neighbor's 'fluffy white dog' that he mistook for a coyote in his dark suburban cul-de-sac. The dog, which his own dog barks at daily through a fence, approached aggressively. Cheah's actions sparked a debate among the hosts about appropriate responses to off-leash dogs and the use of deterrents.

Cheah describes the dog as 'white and fluffy,' similar in size to his 25-pound dog, and approaching 'aggressively' without tail wagging. He used a mini air horn twice, which successfully scared the dog away. He later confronted the dog's owners, who he felt were dismissive.

Lucas admits to breaking a 'ceasefire' with Rico Bosco by writing a blog post titled 'My Apology to Rico Bosco' that was actually a backhanded jab. He then publicly invites Rico to a basketball stream, knowing Rico had privately asked for it to be a Chicago-only event to cover his absence due to another commitment.

Lucas states he was 'bored' and 'lobbed a grenade' with his blog. Tate reveals Rico's private request to keep the basketball stream local to avoid looking like he's 'missing' an event, which Lucas then publicly undermines by inviting him.

The hosts revisit a clip of Zach's initial Barstool interview for a position with Jon Gruden, where he appeared extremely nervous and struggled to answer basic football questions, including identifying a personal foul signal. This 'self-miscommunication' moment became a notable part of his early career.

The clip shows Zach's nervous demeanor and his difficulty answering questions about football signals, leading to Dave Portnoy questioning his football knowledge. Zach describes it as a 'tough day' and an 'absolute blender' where he 'screwed up' due to nerves.
