    New Episode Alert! From Player to Coach: Miguel Antonio Benito on Youth Soccer, Passion, and What It Takes to Be Great
    Aug 4 2025

    Welcome back to Dudes of Davie, where sports take center stage and the takes are as hot as a South Florida summer. This episode is a two-part journey (see time stamps below).

    Part One: Lonny Greenberg and Stefan Miller go full breaking down the biggest stories across the sports world. First up, they recap an electric NHL Stanley Cup Final and a thrilling NBA Finals showdown — who showed up, who folded, and what it all means going forward. Then it’s time to serve up some Wimbledon talk — aces, upsets, and standout moments from the grass courts. And as we hit the halfway mark of the MLB season, the Dudes dive into baseball’s biggest names: Ohtani, Judge, and the teams heating up (or flaming out) down the stretch. Whether you’re a hardcore fan or just trying to keep up, this episode brings the heat. Let’s get into it.

    Part Two (30:26): We sit down with former pro player Miguel Antonio Benito — now one of South Florida’s top private soccer trainers for kids 7–16. Miguel shares his journey through the world of competitive soccer, the lessons he learned the hard way, and what every young athlete and parent needs to hear.

    We cover:

    The challenges and rewards of growing up in competitive soccer

    What separates good athletes from great ones

    Mistakes kids and parents are still making today

    The honest truth about U.S. soccer development

    And how to fuel your child’s drive without burning them out

    This one’s packed with heart, grit, and wisdom.

    Luka was traded to the Lakers, WTF! Super Bowl predictions, unplanned podcast, yeah
    Feb 6 2025
    The biggest trade in NBA history, perhaps. Why did the Mavericks make this trade? Luka in his prime, what the hell is going on? We weren't planning on doing a podcast this week but then again, top 5 players in their prime don't get traded, ever. The DOD is back without guests to discuss, debate, dissect and digest the Lakers acquisition of Luka Donic. This trade is like a 9.0 earthquake on the Richter scale and will have an impact on the entire league for years to come. In the second part of the podcast, our attention turns to the last game of the football season, the Super Bowl, between the Chiefs and Lonny's Eagles. Are the Chiefs destined to become the first football team in history to three-peat? Or, will Saquon Barkley, Jalen Hurts and Jalen Carter carry the Eagles to their second super bowl victory since 2018. Tune in to find out. Hosts: Lonny Greenberg and Stefan Miller

Right out of the gate, we will discuss our panel's reaction to the Paul Knepper Knicks interview. We follow that up with our initial impressions of the first few weeks of the NBA season. The East looks like a three-horse race with the Celtics looking prime for a repeat. The Knicks and Cavs in the second tier and the free-falling Sixers about to implode. The West has more stars than a planetarium and every night a different one appears to shine. The Pelicans have driven Andrew to the brink and he believes its time for them to go.
