South Beach Sessions with Dan Le Batard

Latest Episodes:

Gabriel Iglesias Oct 20, 2023

Show notes

Success required a lot of sacrifices for Gabriel Iglesias and that's no joke.

Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias may be one of the most beloved comedians in the world, but it's in Los Angeles, performing in front of sold-out crowds at Dodger Stadium where he feels most at home and equally on top of the world. Dan meets Gabriel in Los Angeles for a special conversation that goes well beyond what he's ever shared on stage or anywhere before. From discovering his love for comedy, learning to move past unhealthy relationships and loneliness, to experiencing uncontrollable tears of joy when making the most unbelievable dream a reality, there's a little bit of "Fluffy" in all of us.

Watch GABRIEL IGLESIAS: STADIUM FLUFFY streaming now on Netflix and see Gabe live on his “DON’T WORRY, BE FLUFFY” tour. Go to FLUFFYGUY.COM for tour dates, tickets, and more.

Katie Nolan Oct 06, 2023

Show notes

Some things are better left unsaid... yeah, no.

It's been years since Katie Nolan and Dan worked together at ESPN and a lot has changed since then... in more ways than either of them ever shared with one another until now. Katie and Dan pull out all the stops in addressing the challenges they've faced since they last saw each other, the immense joy and growth they've found on the other side of pain, and clear the air on how things really went down during uncertain times. This is what friends are for.

Kevin Hart Sep 22, 2023

Show notes

You think you know Kevin Hart, but you don't know him like this...

It takes a lot to go from a household name to a name that sells out stadiums around the world, especially when the journey began as "a complete accident". Kevin reveals to Dan how he overcame crushing setbacks to reach unimaginable success, why the fear of failing never gets in his way, and how his unending ambition has led to ultimate learning lessons... especially when it comes to a footrace in the street with NFL running back Stevan Ridley.

Beto O'Rourke Aug 04, 2023

Show notes

This isn't about politics.

Days after the passing of Dan's brother, David "Lebo" Le Batard, Beto O'Rourke opens up about the recent loss of his younger sister, Erin, and seeking solace in their shared struggle to navigate through their grief. How do we say goodbye to those we love so deeply, that have shaped who we are and continue on through the pain to honor?

The two also reflect on the startling fight for survival all around us, from migrants rights on the border to the relentless strength of parents and families of tragic gun violence.

Show notes

Late night shows may come and go, but for Roy Wood Jr. the hustle-and-grind never stops.

Amidst strikes and layoffs in a shaky entertainment landscape, Roy also shares what The Daily Show was like under Trevor Noah, and what the future of late night will look like if he takes over next...

Tommy Vietor Jun 23, 2023

Show notes

Tommy Vietor may have left the White House, but imposter syndrome followed him to Hollywood...

Dan welcomes the co-founder of Crooked Media for a conversation more powerful than politics. Tommy shares his realization that leaving politics was the best decision for his personal growth; how opening up about tragedy can bring strength and solace to others. Dan and Tommy also compare what they've learned from starting media companies with their friends... and everything they still haven't figured out.

Mike Breen Jun 09, 2023

Show notes

Mike Breen hits South Beach Sessions with a BANG.

The voice of the NBA Finals for the past 18 seasons will be more than comfortable calling his 100th Finals game, but sitting down with Dan to talk openly about HIMSELF? That's history in itself too. Mike shares with Dan how he still feels like the shy kid who is simply a fan of the game, and the love he has for his broadcast brothers, Jeff Van Gundy & Mark Jackson, even when they won't say it back. Mike also talks about how from the devastating ashes of his family's home, deep gratitude rose.

Watch the 2023 NBA Finals as the Denver Nuggets battle the Miami Heat LIVE on ABC.

Ernie Johnson Jun 02, 2023

Show notes

We don't deserve Ernie Johnson...

A legend, a national treasure, and the glue that has made "Inside the NBA" on TNT the best show on television for nearly three decades, Ernie Johnson is the best of the best because he's done it all with love. Dan explores the secrets behind the magic of what Ernie does, the humbling wisdom learned from his son, Michael, and the unspoken sensitivities surrounding Shaq, Charles, and Kenny. Ernie also reveals being haunted for years by a rare moment when his ego unleashed the worst in him.

Mina Kimes May 26, 2023

Show notes

Protect Mina Kimes at all costs.

Dan and Mina don't hold back about the crazy, anxiety-filled playground that was "Highly Questionable", the ways they've learned to turn criticism into confidence over the years, and fighting off embarrassment, disappointment, and the downright stupid frustrations that still eat at them today. No one would dare sh*t on Mina or Dan after this... alright, maybe Dan.

Watch Mina co-host "NFL Live" weekdays on ESPN and listen and subscribe to "The Mina Kimes Show featuring Lenny".
