We live in a post-Tiger Woods-Wrace 15th major world, which is really, really cool.
We still got a lot to get to.
This is going to be a big time from the gallery-type episode.
We've got a lot of good questions from the people out there.
We also got a bunch of headlines to get through, and we're significantly less than a month away from the next major championship.
So it's a great time to be alive.
Weather's turning.
and I canceled winter a while ago.
And this past weekend it was like 70 degrees.
People golf and people are out and buzzing.
You know what you do when you're out golfing.
You use Supreme Golf.
They are the best.
Supremgolf.com slash barstool.
No joke.
If you book tea times,
which of you listen to this podcast,
there's a very good chance you book tea times.
You know a only tea time app that you need.
Okay.
Tea time app, tea time website,
Supreme Golf.com slash barstool.
They're doing this crazy thing
where they're just giving people that use Supreme Golf
$1,000.
They're giving 10 different people who use Supreme Golf just $1,000.
Between now and August.
So if you don't do that, if you don't use the best T-time app, which is Spring Golf,
and you don't use the T-Time app that just might give you $1,000 for using it,
you're just dumb.
You're a dumb person.
I can't associate with you.
I can't really explain things to you any simpler than that.
So go get Spring Golf.
They're the best.
We love you, Spring Golf, presenting sponsor for the entire year.
What's up, boys?
How we doing?
It's good to see all you lovely faces again.
It's always good to see you, Lurch.
You come barreling off the elevator,
And I'm just happy to see you.
Likewise.
Yeah.
It's very nice.
I wonder how many heads you turn when you walk into this office.
I'm sure a few.
One of the first times I walked in, some gal was like, I was just kind of meandering and just
looking around, like looking for help because it's kind of chaotic in the office.
And I looked like a mess.
And some girl was just like, can I help you?
And I was like, potentially.
In my mind, I said that.
But then I said no.
And I kind of just walked off.
It was Kate from Zero Block 30.
Yeah.
She was on alert.
As soon as you came off the elevator, she was like, who is this and why?
are they here? And yeah, at that point, one of us had to come up to him and be like, no, he's fine. We don't have to wrestle him to the ground and throw him out.
Yeah, it's one of those things that you like, if you ever grab a person just above the elbow and pull them off, that's what I felt like you did to me. And I appreciate it.
Yeah, I pulled you in. I would say on alert is a good way for people to be when you come in. She was just on alert.
Like, what the fuck is this big thing coming through the door here? Yeah. Our security isn't great. So you got to keep, everybody's got to keep their eyes open.
Some of the worst security in the world. Yep. How was you guys weekend?
Lovely.
You know, my weekend was lovely.
It did end with the Game of Thrones, and I didn't like the show, which now the whole got roasted for that.
Getting into, I didn't get roasted.
Well, you got raced.
I didn't.
I think you did, didn't.
Yeah, you did.
I like the term ratio.
I don't think I got ratio.
I think you might have dictionary definition got ratioed.
I don't think that's correct.
I don't know what this little thing you're doing here is, but I think it's like a fact that you got the ratio.
I don't think so.
Do you think that you are now so cornered on the, you know, so cornered on the, you know,
that take that you will defend it regardless of the information you're given?
Oh, I rewatch the show. I very strongly believe what I said.
Okay.
Very strongly believe what I said.
I got a ratio.
Just because, like, Deke Zucker says you got ratioed.
I mean, come out.
I didn't even see Deke Zucker say.
I saw your tweet.
I was like, oh, Reg's just got ratioed.
No, I also don't think, like, you could argue that about a lot of positive tweets.
Like, I can see a lot of people, like, if you tweet something out and you get 500
replies that are like, congratulations about something.
And you'll, you know, a thousand likes from that.
That's not the situation we're currently.
You got 126 retweets, 426 replies.
How many likes?
1.4.
Doesn't.
So, I mean, I think that I don't, I think if you have, like, way more replies, then that's
getting ratioed.
I wouldn't consider that getting ratioed.
426 replies is a lot of replies, man.
And they weren't.
And your other one got six.
And I would imagine, I didn't go through them, but I wouldn't imagine, like, a plus take
or not the responses under that tweet.
Are you going to die on the hill of the take, or you're going to die in the hell that
you didn't get ratioed?
Which one are you going to die?
I don't know what the definition of.
getting ready to it is. I know that that was not a good show. That's what I know. So I'll die
on that hill in my opinion. I thought it was trash. I thought it was a good show. I liked it too.
I didn't thought I had the shit out of it. I mean, we've been talking about winter coming for the
whole show and now it's here. I think like one episode or anyways, we don't have to go into that.
Yeah, we don't know. Game of the podcast. Check out Game of Schools. Yeah, very good podcast. Did you guys
golf this weekend? I did. Played two rounds. Wanted to throw up after one, but played really
well on one. Shot 77 and then I shot
a 90 where I wasn't even close to being
competitive. That was a very different numbers. Yeah, they are.
I was terrible. I was absolutely terrible.
Played my buddy at this great little track and
man, I just started with indecision. It was one of those things
I just kind of woke up a little hungover, a little weird.
And then also I will say my Sunday morning Easter breakfast
was one of the most interesting breakfasts of all time.
Started out with about six handfuls of jelly beans.
Then I had some
Cadbury eggs.
Then I had a
bacon egg and cheese
and then I had a coffee
and then I found myself on the first tea
and let me tell you, I was about as uncomfortable
over the ball as possible.
That's a bad strategy.
It's a terrible diet.
Yeah, it's horrible.
That's just a horrible way to start around.
Cadbury eggs, like being your second thing
that goes into your body,
can't be good for anything that's going on in there.
No, it was terrible.
And it showed.
It shows.
But I'll tell you what, it all tasted going down.
But, man, I was just, I was like, well,
through 10.
I played my second round of the year this weekend.
Awesome.
Yeah.
It felt good.
Felt good to swing the sticks.
Yeah, I mean, we all have one question.
Go ahead.
I think it's pretty...
What's the question?
Pretty obvious.
What's your question, Trent?
How's the short game?
Yep.
Dare Frank.
So I go to this place called Cherry Valley.
Cherry Valley Country Club.
I don't know if you guys ever been there.
It feels like a long-winded answer for everybody asked.
Well, no.
This is what happened.
This is how that short game went.
I showed up.
Great place.
Shout out this guy, Matt.
It fucking unreal.
He showed us around this golf course.
It's amazing how they tuck a little golf course in the middle of Garden City, New York.
It's like all those houses.
And then there's just like a huge golf course in the middle of it that no one knows about.
It's like there's like just trees and stuff blocking it.
So, you know, I walk in.
I'm meeting this guy for the first time.
He works at a pro shop there.
And he like didn't know too much about it.
He knew that people like that I was coming.
And he knew that like, you know, four play and like the whole storyline behind my game.
So he's like waiting for me in the pro shop.
He's like, hey, Frank.
I'm excited to play with you today.
He's like, you know, a lot of people were telling me.
telling me about like four play and bar stool and goes and a ton of people are telling me you have like the worst short game in the world.
I was like well now number one, what's your name? Like let's just introduce ourselves and what do you mean a ton of people are walking around saying that my wedge game sucks. He's like yeah, it's just like everything that it's like no one can stop talking about it. He's like everyone in the clubhouse is talking about how bad your short game is. I said well now I'm not just going to golf with you. What do you expect? So no joke. I felt like a zoo animal playing this entire 18 holes like people from other holes are looking at me with this wet like
with a wedge in my hand.
And of course, like, first hole, I, uh, I duff a shot off the tea with an iron,
hit it about 18 yards, straight up.
They're like, breakfast ball, no problem.
I hit one a little left.
So now I have 120, it was a real short first hole, maybe 380 yards.
I have 120 yards left on my second, on my second shot, take out the 58.
I'm like, I'm going to fucking drill this thing.
It's a long 58.
Well, it was a, so it was 100 yards, but the pin was in the front.
I was playing at like one, I was playing at like, 108.
I'm like, that's, that's my range, 58, full swing, right?
Mm-hmm.
Jesus.
But I have to take a hard swing at that.
Yeah.
And this is what I did.
I think you should be taking these massive swing.
Massive.
It should be taken a 52 or 48 and swung soft.
No, I should have taken a 52 or 48 and I bladed the fuck out of it, went over the green and just on to the road.
Right?
And everyone's looking at me.
Like, this guy duffed one off the first tee.
The second one's on the road.
He's hitting now six.
Like, what is going on with Frankie?
So that was how my round went.
I actually, the guy who I faced off again.
I had a five-hole lead with 11 to go.
We played match, but I ended up playing well.
Lost the match.
Yikes.
Five-hole lead, 11 to go, lost the match.
You just collapsed?
I fell apart at the seams.
I was like, it was like an old piece of clothing that just, you pulled one fucking piece of
thread.
Gone.
There's one body of water on the whole golf course.
It's on the left side.
It's on the left side of one T-Bucks and the left side of the one coming back.
So both sides, I just couldn't push it.
Found the water on Bolt T-box.
I swear to God, I walked away with two snowmen.
back to back i'm like it's over i just i've i've ruined golf for myself so yeah that's how it went
i see the playoff beard still going though that looks beautiful it's hard to have conversations
with people like like matt who were in the broshab who has no idea what barsall's going
he has no idea about barsall no idea about like what the playoff beard is he's just like looking
at me yeah he just doesn't in his mind he's like Zach does he think that looks good
i know totally we had tay digs here today yep most random actor you could possibly think of
like to have a conversation with me and he comes up to me just staring at my beard
He's like, oh, we're going to do pizza day, and he's just looking down.
I'm like, yeah, we are, but you should just make some eye contact with it.
Do you address it with people?
I do if I'm comfortable with them.
Like, today I walked down on the second floor.
I said, hey, M.B., I need this.
By the way, I know what's going on with the face.
Just don't look at it.
Keep the eyes up here, people.
It's like in the office when Jim is just looking at Dwight's forehead.
He's like, make eye contact with me.
That's what I want.
I'm like, everyone looks down and I just, I duck.
It is noticeably worse, I would say, than Sidney Crosby's even.
It's really bad.
Oh, it's awful.
I think if I had another month, something may happen.
The neck is disgusting.
It's a neared.
The neck is absolutely disgusting.
So weird makes me want to puke all over this table.
Someone at the golf course yesterday, so we ended up getting pretty comfortable to the point where he was able to say this.
He said, it looks as though you were walking down a street and, you know, you walked underneath the air conditioner and a little drop of water hit you.
And then in that apartment building that you got the drop of water on you on the street, someone was shaving their pew.
and Augusta wind just blew out and all those pubes from the window hit your wet face and then just stuck there.
Was this, was that?
Yeah, someone said it was a stranger.
I thought it was the guy you playing with.
Like, after he came back from being five down on 11th?
I'm just like, finishing out on the 18th ring.
I've been saving something all day.
Here we go.
Ready?
He's about to hit the game away.
He's like, by the way, let me tell you something about that fucking joke of a facial hair you have.
It looks like you just got pub stuck to your face.
I mean, it's bad.
My neared is a joke.
Easter Sunday wasn't great talking to
my girlfriend's family. They have no idea what's going on.
Are you losing it? You can tell them.
I do, but they're like, what does that mean? Like, what,
what, what? What, what are you playing?
But you're committed to it?
They've got to know you're a fan at this point.
There's a lot on the line, you're sticking to it.
A ton on the line. I respect that shit. Huge weekend coming
up. There is a lot on the line.
I just could win the Stanley Cup, but we're not going to get into that.
There's a chance they could win the Stanley Cup.
The amount of times we almost go deep in hockey talk
and almost go deep in Thrones talk
from this show? We're not going to do it.
Shout out to us.
for not because it's a golf podcast.
It's very tempting to do it.
Very much, though.
Blues with a gigantic.
Huge.
I have to say, big credit to the blues.
Coming back on the road in game five out of nowhere,
scored with 15 seconds left,
then going back home and getting the W played their best game of the playoffs.
Big credit to Schwartz.
Oh, my God.
Patrick, are you kidding me?
That's all over the ice.
People going crazy.
Anyway, it's a golf podcast.
We are about what?
four weeks away from the PGA championship
is not just being held in May,
but it is being held right down the street.
It is being held that really, you could argue,
our home course.
At the beginning of last year,
I think we played like four weeks in a row
that we went out and played at Beth Page.
Frankie grew up right down the street.
Borrelli's restaurant is right down the street.
Great establishment.
Really good establishment.
I mean, really delicious.
I get the lobster ravioli.
you do get that every time
Every time
When I go there
Your pops just brings it out for me at this point
It's delicious
I gotta say it's delicious
It'll be a sin if we don't end up at Borelli's
At some point in this
Beth Page
We'll be there
I don't know if you'll be there
I'll be outside
Yeah
So I do have
I have control
I have control of the doors
Okay
Yeah I don't know
You know you're kind of out of control
A lot of things
I am
I am
So we will be
Obviously at Borelli's
at a bunch of different points,
but also for anybody wondering,
we will be at that PGA championship.
We'll be all over that goddamn PGA championship.
This is like inside from them.
They say, we'll be all over the pool,
be all over that shuffleboard court.
That's how we're going to be.
We'll be all over the drive range.
We'll be all over that golf course.
We are going to be all over that parking lot.
We are going to be everywhere at the PGA championship.
You people should join us.
A little note for you here.
If you want to go get your tickets,
they're almost sold out,
but you can get tickets.
You go to PGA championship.
com slash foreplay.
We've got a little link for you.
Wow.
PGA Championship.com slash
foreplay. It's the 101st PGA
championship. It's May 13th through the 19th.
Tiger Woods is going for the Grand
Slam this year. That's the thing
you can say. He's literally going for
the grand slam. Tiger Woods won the Masters.
He won the Masters. People who keep
randomly tweeting that, I mean, it makes me happy
every time. It's really stunning. I mean, it
almost still hasn't sunk in
a week later, over a week later.
But Tiger Woods did win the Masters if you missed
it. Therefore, he will be going
to continue this chase
for the Grand Slam this year.
He won the 2002 U.S. Open at Bethpage Black.
He now will be going for his 16th major championship at Bethpage Black in less than a month,
which is very exciting.
So join us out there.
We're going to be out of a freaking week, literally all week.
We got a whole little booth set up.
We're going to be all over the fucking place.
Everyone on Long Island is talking about the PGA Championship.
I can't go anywhere without them being like, are you going there?
Is 4 play going there?
How are we getting tickets?
Like, if you're listening to this and you are on Long Island or if you're traveling there,
You have to get tickets now because it will.
Like, there's tickets still available, but you have to, you have to just, like, secure your tickets.
It's one of those things where it's like, oh, yeah, it's right down the block.
We'll end up going.
It's like, no, you need tickets to get in.
And you should get that now.
Dude, and it's going to be fucking rowdy.
And they always talk about how New York brings, like, the craziest, largest, rowdiest crowd.
Like, get there, get there early, come by and find us.
We're going to be, we are going to be infiltrated at Beth Page.
And Beth Page, in my opinion, in the single best value in the world of golf.
It is a top 10 or 15 golf course in America.
It is phenomenal.
And if you are in New York resident, it's $75.
That's the most insane deal and the best deal, like, of all time.
Every time you say that number, it's crazy.
It's unbelievable.
And if you're a non-resident, it's what, $150?
Let me tell you something to compare the black.
You can play the Bethpage green, right?
And I've always been a big, I hate Bethpage when it comes to, like,
there are other courses and what they do to you when you have to get a golf cart.
you have to like sign over.
Oh yeah.
It's insane.
You get 18 different slips.
If you lose the pink one, you got to go back to the pro shop and get the blue one.
And you need your leisure pass.
And if you don't have a leisure pass, you need a state ID.
If you don't have it, it's nuts.
And I just heard this is a rumor.
I haven't been to Beth Page yet, but I heard that if you want access, now that the golf carts have, the golf carts have,
the golf carts now have GPS systems in it.
This is what I've heard.
And if you want access to the GPS within the golf cart, you have to pay extra.
Nuts.
Something like I've never seen in my time.
You know why.
It's such a shit shows because you're talking about a long Island
place that's run by Long Island people.
Correct.
But just to make a comparison of the Bethpage Black,
the Beth Page Black is $75 to go
play literally one of the best courses in
the world.
And you can get a caddy out there.
You can do whatever you want.
And then you go play the Beth Page Green.
You've got to go through 18 different things of paper
just to play the fucking golf course.
And it ends up being $75 because you get a cart.
It's the same price.
So if you're going to golf, why not just golf the best golf course
in the world?
It does make sense.
It's crazy.
I've been out there a bunch.
I've never played any other course except the black.
Well, the red.
The red is sneaky.
The red is sneaky.
I've heard good things.
about the red, but I've only played the black. Have you played others?
I've played the red, and I will say the red, the first hole on the red, and the 18th hole on the red are probably better than the first hole in the 18th hole on the black.
The first hole in the red is arguably one of the hardest golf holes in all the world.
That's really hard.
That's the one right next to the 18th of the black.
It's like going out.
I don't know the yardage on it because I haven't played in a while, but I think it's like a 440-yard uphill par four, and it's impossible.
The one time I played there was Trent Daddy was out there.
I think you were out there with us friend.
It was us three, though.
No, no.
It was par four.
But it was straight down win when we played it.
Straight down win.
See, I played there before after a, after a tournament, after the U.S. Open,
and it plays as a par three because they put all the,
they put all the tents there on that first, on that first fairway.
The other thing about this PGA championship is like, Beth Page is a gigantic property.
It's a stupid bad.
It's going to be a five golf courses.
Awesome place to watch.
They've got a ton of space.
There's going to be a lot going on.
So again, you go to PGA Championship.com slash.
forward play you do not want to miss this thing it's going to be fucking awesome awesome i can't wait for it
i really am so excited for this i just love that course i mean everybody's played it a thousand times
in tiger woods video games but true playing that course i mean i just adore the first hole and then
i mean really the whole course but the force hole is so much fun to step off really the patio
and then you're just on the first tee box with that like wild sign that says like expert golfers
only one of the more intimidating first tee shots in the game of all yes oh my gosh oh my gosh
God. There's just, there's people, there's people chirping you. There's these crusty New York,
or these crusty Iowa or Long Island people, they sit on that fucking bench right there. They're
not even playing golf. These guys just go sit up there and just chirp. Then you got the people
that are waiting in line, get ready to play. They put this bracelet on you when you play. Then they
make you keep it on during your warm-up session. They cut it off you. They like, chirp you
when they get ready to cut it off. The guy, you're ready for this butt. It's like, shut the
fuck up. Show me play golf. And you go to the range and they put that fucking bracelet on you.
And everyone at the range is like, oh, that guy's playing the black. And then they follow
you to the first tee. It's like, let's see this
cox, let's see this guy do it. It's like, okay, you turn
around, you're like, all right, guys, I know what you're looking
at you. You've been looking at me for the past hour.
I know what you're looking at. And everything behind
that first tee, it's all elevated. So everyone's
standing like above you, like you're goddamn,
like you're in a circus show and they're like
staring at you or the performer. You're like,
I'm not that good at golf. You stand out there.
A little dog leg, right. It's the
narrowest fucking fairway you've ever seen.
There's a lot of space you can hit. You hit it live, you hit a right?
It's not that big of a deal. But to hit the actual
Fairway?
Insane.
Are you kidding me?
Nothing looks better though when you hit one right down the middle.
It's like it's splashes.
Yes.
It's like it's just in the air for 10,000 minutes and then it just boom.
And then when you peel one off to the right and it's headed for those trees and all the rough, it's like, oh, God.
I've had a lot of good drives there that I'm like, oh, it's just down the right side.
It should be good.
I get up there.
It's in like knee-high rough.
Yeah.
Five feet off the fairway with a tree in my way.
I'm like, I'm fucked.
There is nothing fun.
So the green course is right next to the black.
And it actually is a mini first hole of the black.
It does the same thing.
And the funniest thing ever is when you're there and you're playing the green or you're playing any other golf course,
even if they're playing the black, you notice the difference in not only the fairway and like the greenness,
but you look at the bunkers and the difference between the bunkers on one in the black and then one on the green is laugh out loud funny.
The one on the black looks like it was sand that was sent from like Peru.
Like each grain of sand was perfectly hand placed on this perfect white bunker.
You look just to the right, and it's mud.
It's literally mud from my backyard.
Like, my dad drops off some extra dirt, and they put it on the grid.
It is like light brown crap mud.
Yeah.
It looks like a sandbox, like, where kids just played in it all day, and then they just left.
There's no worse.
I feel poor right now feeling that when you're on the green and you're in a bunker,
you're looking at all the people just floating on the black.
Like, look at those guys.
It's incredible.
I could have done that.
It's the same price.
There's that one hole, too.
that's on the red that goes up along against the black, along like 16 on the black, I think,
where you get to see it and you're like, wait, why are we playing golf?
Why aren't we just playing?
There's heaven.
Heaven's on the other side of here.
Like, what are we doing over here?
Oh, the place is awesome, and it's just a public track.
It's great.
If you haven't played Bethpage, get out there and play it or come out in a couple weeks,

We're going to be out west.
We'll be in the south.

It'll be all kinds of places.
So get excited.
Okay, fellas, we got something a little different here.
Fulton and Rourke.
They're a men's fragrance and grooming company.
They're best known for their wax-based solid colognes.
They sent us over a box with a couple of their top sellers.
Now, look, we've been rocking this stuff.
I'm going to tell you,
Office Manager, Brett,
who he takes his whole fragrance
and his whole grooming and all that
incredibly seriously
very seriously when this bach came in he came
flocking over you know how people do that
he's flocking is right word he's flocking he's hovering
he said hey what you got there

Trenti
Trenti yeah you got the Fulton and Rourke

legitimately
was like this is the best stuff on the planet
he's like their fragrance their little
cologne he's like it's not
the type of stuff that like you douse yourself in
It's like you're just going everywhere and your body just screams cologne.
It's very faint.
It's very subtle.
And it is phenomenal.
People just love this.
Everywhere you go, you just smell.
You just, that faint smell of just this guy knows what you're doing.
This guy's on top.
This guy's got to stuff together.
Unlike alcohol-based cologne, you have total control over how much you put on instead of 30 minutes of that intense cologne smell before it fades quickly.
You get six to eight hours of steady wearing fragrance.
They send us their body wash, their bar so.
their face moisturizer with SPF-18.
We've been rocking all this stuff.
That's why we look.

Headlines.
Start with the Masters.
I like how Florida got its own.
Yeah, a little plug.
West, up north, Florida.
I think it deserves it.
Yeah, it does.
You know?
Not southeast?
Just Florida?
No, because it's like a weird, fucked-up place where bizarre, crazy shit happens.
People eat people's faces off.
Remember that bath salts guy?
That was nuts.
That was a huge story.
One of the biggest ones of the country.
I was running up and down the fucking freeway just eating people's faces off.
That was crazy.
It was like wild creatures down there.
Crazy.
Totally.
I don't trust Florida.
No.
But we're going to do an event there.
But we'll be there.
I got a few, a few, I don't know, feedback, mistakes maybe that we made,
pointers that we should talk about from last show.
Number one, Faldo did say that Malinari.
ball hit the tree and a pine cone went into the water on 15 so i was rewatching this because
that much people were tweeting like they said it during the broadcast so at first they don't say it
uh nance or whoever says like oh he flubbed it he basically says something along the lines oh my god he
like dipped it he flubbed it all that i believe what happened was we were we were going crazy in the
office correct right we were jumping all over each other on the live feed and all that and then when
they clarified i think we just didn't didn't hear it um so they did say that credit to faldo who's like
Oh, my God, it looked like you hit the tree.
They showed the replay, so we missed that.
And then the other one was Travis Kelsey, tight end.
Right.
One of the better ones.
We were going through the best tight ends.
And we just didn't even mention them.
And a bunch of people, some people emailed us in all caps.
Are you guys fucking kidding me?
So we probably should have mentioned them.
That has something to do with Travis Kelsey, right?
It's almost like the Mike Trout thing.
You can just forget about a guy.
I agree with that.
Maybe work on your marketability, pal.
Yeah.
He should be the first name and pops in my head.
Kyle Rudolph, first name that pops in my head.
George Cuttle, first name that pops in my head.
Marketable guys.
Yeah, Kyle Rudolph.
Is his first name, George?
George Kittle?
Yeah.
Okay.
I bet you thought it was Greg.
I thought it was Greg, too.
You guys got me thinking about it, but I know he's name is George.
I know everything that goes on your brain.
I knew you thought that was Greg.
Shut up.
Shut up.
I can't believe you guys had me fucking Googling this.
The guy went to Iowa.
It was absolutely George Kittles.
Yeah, George Kettle.
George Kittal.
I like you were persuasive enough to get inside that brain of yours.
Those also, I mean, I will say that we might be a little skewed because those are two guys that we had in the office recently.
Or I guess Rudolph, we went up to Minnesota.
Minneapolis and saw him up there, but we had George Kittle in the office like two weeks
ago.
Yeah.
And we haven't had Travis Kelsey in here ever, so we just forgot him.
So that's on us.
Apologies, you probably deserves me mentioned.
I don't apologize for that.
I want that, not a blanket apology.
I don't want to apologize for it.
And then the last thing I want to mention, which I didn't pick this up the first time
either because it was such a whirlwind watching the Tiger celebration with the kids
and all that.
But if you guys remember, he hugs the family.
So he does both of his kids, the girlfriend, the mother.
And then he gives a big hug to a guy who, like, throws his arm in the air and the crowd
goes crazy. That guy
is Tiger's guy, Robbie Mac, who
is the guy who
facilitated my interview with Tiger.
Wow. He's the man.
Great dude. Almost felt like you got a hug there.
Well, I just didn't catch it at first, and he
throws his hand up and gives like a
ya! The crowd goes crazy when Tiger hugs him.
Almost Tiger gives him like a bro hug, like finally,
family, family, and then like my boy. And that's
Robbie Mac, who again is the man, like nicest dude in the
world. He's Tiger's guy. He's
goes pretty much everywhere Tiger goes,
so clearly they have a very tight bond.
So seeing that big hug for our guy,
who, again, helped us get a couple minutes of Tiger on this very show,
getting a huge hug from El Tigray,
which was fucking awesome to see.
And then I've just rewatched that whole clip like 10 times anyway.
Tiger won the Masters.
Tiger won the Masters in case you guys.
His hug with Finau is pretty emotional, too.
Yeah, well, I watch it back in a full-on hug,
both arms from both guys,
and then when they separate, Tiger slaps him on the chest.
It's like, that's just like they must be buddies,
because then Molaniari comes over and they just like, yeah, whatever.
There's just nothing there.
Totally.
But Fina was like, they embraced for a full two seconds.
Yeah, Molonari was a lot of whatever types of them.
A lot of whatever.
Yeah, and those two, I mean, they've had a hell of a year together.
Correct.
With Molinar getting the better at Karnoosti and now Tiger getting the better of them here.
But yeah, he did.
He had some emotional, when you go back and you rewatch that, there's some emotional shit in there.
It's also very interesting going through that lineup of players that were out there.
Like some of them clearly you shouldn't have been there.
than some of them should.
Like, there's like a Poulter's in there?
Like, what the fuck's he ain't Poulter doing out there?
He should have got whisked away by the green jackets.
The way, there was the clothes.
There was a lot of people there that were quite interesting.
Longer, I don't know, because, like, he's old.
I just don't know.
Yeah.
Again, I don't understand, but he's just there.
Yeah, but he could be like, Polter is, like, blatantly tired.
Clearly does not like he in Pultz.
This is just the fact.
I know he had Fultz.
I know he just saw Sergio up there.
Right.
That's like, that was almost like, right?
He's hugged it.
That's like, now what the fuck's going on?
Like, what is this guy doing there?
And a couple of, like, obviously Brooks is going to be there with some cool symmetry there
between from when Tiger waited around after Brooks won the PGA last year and all that good stuff.
But just rewatching that was awesome.
Tiger rocking the green jacket with his gym shorts at his restaurant.
Again, we have said it a million times in the show, we'll say it again.
The guy clearly dresses like an absolute savage on the golf course.
The second you get him off the golf course, he just has no clue.
Now, it's cool that he's rocking the green jacket with Jim Shorts.
Don't get me wrong.
One of the coolest things I've ever seen.
But if I won the green jacket, I mean, I'd go to the restaurant.
I'm going it with, like, a nice pair of jeans.
My green jacket.
Maybe like a nice t-shirt, one of my classier T-shirts and, like, looking as good as I can't.
He's going in fucking gym shorts and a Nike t-shirt.
He looked like he had just got out of the gym and then he grabbed the green jacket, like, on his way out,
and it was probably still sweaty and everything was gross.
I'm okay with it.
I put in the blog that I wrote about where it's like, this wasn't okay the way he dresses, like, these past 10 years
because we're like, are you ever going to win another major?
and now that he has, like winning cures everything to the point where he can wear whatever he wants now.
And I'll be like, that's just Tiger.
You know, he's stunting his dick swinging around the restaurant with his green jacket and his shorts.
Totally fine with me.
Yeah, that is an important point that like two weeks ago he was dressing like that.
Right.
And we were kind of like, you look like an asshole.
Now it's like, dude, you wear where what fuck you want.
He can be naked walking around with his green jacket.
It's exactly what I said.
It's exactly what I said.
I mean, it's totally, you do whatever you want after you won the green jacket.
But yeah, it's just, it's Tiger, him strutting into his shirt and his jacket.
That picture, I don't know, that guy, whoever got that blurry picture of the mid-striad, that was the best picture I've ever seen.
Best picture I've ever seen.
That was better than anything else.
Like, he, I'm glad that picture was blurry and just looked like ridiculous.
The blurry one was much better than the one of him being like clearly standing next to somebody being like, oh my God, that's tiger.
There's something mythical about it.
It's like bleeding.
Totally.
He's just blowing by you.
You know what it looks like.
The pace of his like gate or walk was just amazing.
You know what it looked like identical to Bigfoot pictures.
Yes.
People have a picture of Bigfoot.
Like you never quite get them.
It's not clear.
Like, that might be Bigfoot in there.
That's what that was.
It's not 100% clear that was Tiger, but, like, it's probably Tiger.
It reminded me of the...
The movie Science.
You ever got to see the movie Science?
Where you first see the alien walk through or walk by and it's like through the avenue
of the two apartments and you're like, oh, my God, that's that photo.
Yeah, always a little blurry, a little fuzzy, not quite in focus.
That's Tiger with the Green Jagger.
It reminded me of the catch me if you can, the movie, the movie poster for that.
It's kind of the same thing.
I don't know why that was the first thing that came to my mind.
It's okay.
Very good movie.
It's what?
Underrated.
Yeah, I think it's Leonardo Caprio's best movie.
Wow.
All right.
Really?
Different topic.
Frank Abagnale Jr.
Yeah.
That's a thing we got to get back to.
Merry Christmas.
When we won recommendation.
Maybe it's your recommendation today, Frank.
Oh, we never did those ago.
Yeah.
Remember that?
You kicked it off.
Rigsie Rex?
Yeah, Rigsie Rex.
I totally forgot.
I hate your smirk after you say it.
He's just like, no, it's getting Rigsie Rex.
Actually, I put on, what did I put on my story or something?
I put on, like, lurchy workouts or something,
or Lurchy, what did I do with this?
Lurchy landscaping.
Oh, yeah, okay, a little alliteration there.
Yeah, exactly.
And somebody got back to me on that?
I was like, I didn't even think about that.
You're trying to grow the brand.
That's smart.
Exactly.
I'm just trying to think, what did I watch this weekend? I don't think I watched anything very interesting.
I've got one.
It's on Netflix.
You sit down and watch these episodes about our planet.
It blows your fucking mind.
It is outrageous what goes on in this planet when we're not watching.
There's these little birds like...
How often are you watching the planet?
I don't.
Like a tree's going on.
Like a little tree in the fucking forest.
You have to know how much shit's going on one branch in this tree.
You got these birds.
They're doing dances.
The male birds are doing dances for the female bird to see which one the male bird the female one wants to mate with.
And they're doing fucking dances, man.
This isn't planet Earth, though.
No, this is called Our Planet.
Okay.
Like, they show these glaciers break away.
And then, like, after the episode, there's, like, 15 minutes of, like, behind the scenes.
And, like, it's fucking nuts, dude.
So it's similar to Planet Earth.
Yeah.
I think it's Netflix's Planet Earth.
It's behind the scenes.
Our Earth.
Our planet.
Yeah.
Okay.
No, I'm into this.
No, you have to watch it.
That was, uh, somebody was talking about it.
That was the ultimate, like, when we were in high school and college, like, hookup, hookup,
hookup, uh, videos that you put on planet Earth.
And that was like, you're guaranteed.
And you got the guy David Attenborough.
Oh, yeah.
Unreal.
So he narrates this one.
Oh, he does?
Oh, yeah.
He's back?
Yeah.
He's awesome.
Dude, it sounds like Winnie the Pooh is talking about the Earth.
It does.
It sounds like Winnie the Pooh is talking about glaciers.
So our recommendation this week is our planet.
Our planet.
I finally got it right.
Everyone's kind of mixing it out, Earth, our planet.
I'm looking it up.
I don't even know what that's the name.
Almost probably.
Who's the first one?
All right.
Then we got to remember.
I'm going to make a note for Wednesday show slash Thursday show.
Lurch.
Or Trent, you're up.
You guys can have a little contest, see who's got a better recommendation.
Okay.
I always forget that we do one and not one each.
That's what I always forget.
Yeah, one each is a lot.
It's a lot.
You know, you don't want to hit people too much.
That's eight per week.
And they'll just get lost.
I think people will go back and watch Our Planet.
I think everyone's seen it on the front page of Netflix.
I'm like, do I even want to watch like a nature documentary?
Sometimes you just don't want to dive into that.
Totally.
Sometimes it's too much to handle.
This is not too much to handle.
It's unreal.
That's a big in college, tired, hung up.
over you just put on our planet or people were trying to talk about me i'm like are you watching
what's going on in our in our world right now you see the birds on this branch see the birds in this
and they're like how high are you right now i'm just not like i'm just not i'm just excited about the birds
shout out to those cameramen that film these fucking like siberian tigers and shit unbelievable fucking
crazy patience is one word they go through they talk about they've been out here for 120 days
and you get the guy for like an hour they were trying to find this glacier full apart they're like we
We will be here sitting on this rock and staring at this thing of ice for the next 24 days hoping that it just breaks.
And it just does.
How do you get the intelligence that that's about to break off right there?
It's nuts.
How often you think there's a crew and it just doesn't break?
Well, they have a budget only for 24 days.
The budget's got to be outrageous for these shows.
You have to, like, you only have 24 days.
It was like 23 days and 23 hours.
And it was like, it's breaking.
All right, let's go.
It was nuts.
I imagine them setting up the cameras and it starts to break and they're like, oh, shit.
To the point where I actually think someone just like threw like a piece of diner.
dynamite down there and like let's just get this thing moving because we have 20 minutes.
We've been here for, we've been here for four weeks.
Like it's time to go.
It's time to go.
Let's just hike over there tomorrow morning.
We're going to drop this dynamite.
Blow it and we'll film it.
We're out of here.
We're the only people out here.
Who's going to fucking catch us?
How messed up would that be?
All these shows about like conserving the planet and everything are actually just roaming.
Dude, I always thought like even now, even now you see this lion walking through the
forest.
How do we know that they didn't just put the lion there and just have them walk through
that part of the forest?
You don't know.
Oh, I think there's got to be some trust.
there. Oh, there is trust. I mean, Frankie was so wowed by the show that he made it his recommendation.
Correct. Clearly. Trust. So much trust. Good point. Great point. Just an unbelievable amount of trust.
Yeah. I remember, I think the original planet, didn't it start with the bears coming out of the hibernation when they're climbing up
that fucking hill? It's crazy. A little cubs can't get up that hill. Oh, it's all time. Wait until you watch the
flamingos. That's a little teaser. Really? Flemongue's our raiders.
They have to go. A little hand motion. You just point to the ceiling goes, that's a little teaser.
It's going to like sell the world. It's like their little huge. It's like, they're
little humans, man. They got to go find water. They all walk
and single file line for a week. It's crazy.
For a week? It's nuts. What kind of discipline is that?
It's unbelievable.
The big flamingos are like parents. They make sure everyone walks in line. It's like,
what are these, like this is happening right now?
That is a big thing with ducks. I know that. I'm playing fucking Fortnite out here.
And these ducks are walking for fucking two weeks to go water?
It's not really. Do they talk to each other?
Third grade teacher kept us all in line.
You ever heard birds chirping? What do you think they're doing, Frank?
Yeah, they're talking.
You ever see when the way ducks crossed the road? It's crazy.
It's insane.
They shut down in our estates and people are like, all right, well, letting it happen.
They just do it in single file.
Like, oh, it's our turn now.
And they just walk across.
Like, what the fuck?
Also, wolves, unbelievable.
Those things are savages.
Talk about the way they hunt and packs?
Crazy.
Wolves, I do really well.
They have these drone footage.
The wolves are just like ones on each side of the forest.
It's like, how the fuck are these guys?
Did these guys sit and like, they're dead?
And they're like, we're going to fucking get these guys.
You go left.
I go straight.
You go right.
We're going to get them.
I envision them like in Thrones and get all the pieces out.
It's crazy.
I'm like, all right.
Here's, yeah, here's what, we're going to do?
It's insane.
I mean, I think everybody in the world sold, what, Battle of the Kruger on YouTube?
That's a really bold claim.
That got like a billion views.
Did you guys not see that?
I think you're 0 for four in this room in this room.
That's insane.
Do you think some of a random person in Malaysia saw that?
I'll hold that for my next one.
Actually, it's only an eight-minute YouTube piece that goes along with his, Battle of the Kruger.
YouTube.
What is it?
It's unbelievable.
So basically.
That doesn't really.
Explain it.
Just give me a really quick one second.
What is it?
Buffalo lions fight.
An alligator gets involved.
It's unbelievable.
They kind of coerce it.
It looks like the animals are communicating with each other based on the strategy.
It's just worth of watch.
That was a good little.
No, that was good pitch.
I had a good pitch.
The other week, my family and I had a bit of a scare.
At midnight, the cops rang our doorbell.
A neighbor had called them thinking they saw a man in our yard.
There goes Trenti.
Searched our property, cleared our home.
Everything was fine, but it got me thinking, I need home security.
Next day, I got Simply Safe Home Security from day one.

CT Pan won in Harbortown.
You got to be honest, I don't think we care.
Only care for one point.
Okay.
In his post-game speech.
Awesome move.
Unbelievable.
Somebody was like, how great is it?
The Tiger won and O is your hero?
And he's like, yeah, and he's like the way he delivers it in his very giddy tone.
He's like, go Tiger.
No, it was great.
It was incredible.
Look, it's his first win, which is really cool.
He beat a pretty good field down the stretch.
There was like Cochers in the mix, a bunch of guys.
So it's obviously a very cool thing.
We said two weeks ago, we said the tournament that gets hosed the worst is by far the Harbor Town, the RBC Heritage.
Really cool golf course down in Hilton Head on the water.
I believe it's a Pete Dye course, that 18th one with the little lighthouse there.
Candy cane-to-cane style lighthouse is awesome.
And just it's impossible to care because you go from the back night at Augusta National,
especially this last week
where you got the back night of Gus National
Tiger and his red with his mock neck
shout of Frankie with his mock neck
out there taking that guys down
maybe the greatest scene in the history of golf
and then you're cutting the fucking coocher
against CT Pan playing for the obviously
heritage get the fuck out of here
you know what I'm saying it's just like it's just hard
it's just really hard
now you know we have
Lurch and I are on a year long
fantasy golf thing
golf pool I guess you can call it so we had some guys
in the mix, so that kind of gets you excited.
But outside of that, it took away a couple headlines.
One, DJ with an all-time collapse.
Yeah, I could.
That scorecard was crazy town.
Crazy.
I mean, he had the lead going into Sunday.
He finished 28th.
Oh, dude, he was putting it in the water and just hitting the worst shots time after time.
It was amazing to see how badly he could play.
And I was rooting for Rory Sabatini because I had a little money on him to finish top five.
Put a name.
Yeah, a different kind of Roy, not Royal Maca Roy.
He doesn't have the same kind of game, but still the same name.
Not the same kind of like a baby on him.
And I was rooting for a top top five finish.
So it was actually great to see some of these guys just fall apart at the top.
Hulter fell apart a bunch of guys over part on Sunday.
But DJ was horrible.
DJ on the back nine went boge, bogey, bogey, double, double.
Yes.
It was insane and he was just hitting the worst shots I've ever seen.
The fact of that's even possible is really something.
Let me ask this.
I didn't see any of the Roy Sabotees.
He still wear the Sabaro hat thing?
He doesn't have many.
People aren't marketing much through him.
He's got a hat deal and no shirt deal.
Does he still wear the ridiculous hat or no?
He used to wear like a big cowboy hat.
No, he doesn't wear that.
He wears some dot com hat, I think, but literally no sponsor on his shirt.
But a normal hat.
Normal hat.
Gotcha.
Baseball cap.
Yeah, I don't like that.
He didn't need to stick with the brand.
Who was it?
I can't remember who he was playing with one time where he, the guy he's playing with
had like a little rules, rules dispute, controversy thing, and was playing a little
slow, and Roy Sabatine, you just played through him.
Come on.
Yeah, I can't remember which turn about that was.
What a move.
Yeah, he legit.
He just played through.
It was like, I'm just, I'm going to finish.
See you later.
Yeah.
So that guy, you know, he's had his issues.
He chirped Tiger that one time.
Obviously, a lot of people got on him.
Jordan Spath with a 74-75 on the weekend to go from kind of in the mix to T-54.
So he continues his bizarre-ass stretch that he's in where you don't know if he's close or if he's the furthest away he's ever fucking been in his entire life.
You just have no clue.
He didn't make the Tour Championship last year for the first time.
You're thinking like, oh, he's going to do a game together.
You know, he's still young as hell.
so it's just a little bit of a downturn.
He'll be fine.
A lot of people were picking him kind of as an underdog,
air quotes,
underdog for the masters, you know,
because he plays so well there and he's such a good player.
Didn't really have it there,
although he did have a nice little bounce back after a rough start,
so it's like, where the fuck has Speath?
Nope, 74, 75 in the weekend to finish T-54,
so I think he's still pretty lost.
I had one guy tried to submit it from the gallery that was like,
who wins a major next?
Speath or Smiley Kaufman?
Laugh in his face.
Jordan Speath, obviously.
George Spath.
Kevin Kisner, streak has, if you were really, if you were clinging to the T20-something streak,
if you weren't counting his match play win, for some reason you were really trying to cling
to that streak, which I wouldn't mind.
Yeah.
It is officially ended.
That's sad, man.
It really is.
It's my favorite streak in sports.
And just since we're going to bury this now that it's over, I want to go through the finishes
one more time.
Yeah, let's do it.
T-401 here.
Starting at the waste management of this year, Kevin Kisner finishes, T-26, T-28, T-28.
T-23, T-22, T-24, T-21.
Rest in peace, man.
That final T-21 was at the Masters Tournament.
Yep.
Yeah, so it's a good run.
Really good run from Kevin Kisner.
And in the middle of that great streak in sports, he got a win.
The biggest win of his career.
He won, what, $1.7 million or something of that nature.
Won the match play.
So great start to the year for our friend Kevin Kisner.
And just, you know, we'd like to honor his streak here by mentioning it on the show.
And, hey, maybe we'll start another one sometime soon.
You just don't know.
have a very, it would be cool if he started a teens something finish.
Yeah, the higher the better.
Correct.
I'm down with any streak, but as long as it's a streak, I want him to win like eight tournaments in a row.
That would be an awesome streak.
Huge, huge.
That would be a really cool streak.
I'd be into that.
Making cuts and getting paid, though, that's for sure.
Guy gets paid.
He's a very good at that.
He's the most consistent motherfucker out there.
Well, yeah, he's as consistent as they come.
Not just a hobby.
No, ain't no hobby, boys.
This week is the Zurich Classic, the team event.
you know, we've kind of been all over the place on the Zurich Classic, I've got to say.
You know, it sounded cool at first that they're doing the team thing.
It is interesting.
It's intriguing that they did the team thing.
Genius moved by the Zurich Classic because I went from total snooze Fest event.
Why the hell would I care who wins the Zurich Classic to, oh, wow, they're doing teams.
That's interesting.
The format that they do, it's best ball on Thursday, alternate shot Friday, best ball against Saturday, and then alternate shot against Sunday.
So it is intriguing and all that.
What we haven't liked are they do the best ball.
walk-up songs.
It is the most.
Cringeworthy stuff.
It's awful.
We might be approaching
so bad it's good territory.
I think if we can embrace it that way,
that might be the best lens to view it through.
But otherwise, boy, is it a
tough walk-up for those players.
It's just off-brand,
but I do agree with it.
It's so bad.
It's good theory, and that is the best lens to do it.
Do you think it would ruin your view of Tiger Woods
if he participated in that?
Depends.
No, I bet. Well, no.
Nothing would ruin my view of him, but.
Nothing would ruin.
him.
It would actually enhance your view if, like, he walked up to Eye of the Tiger, be unreal.
He just, like, didn't dance or do anything.
He just, like, they just played the song, and he just ripped the driver.
I think that's what he would do.
But what if he was up there just, like, raising the roof and being all goofy and stuff, you wouldn't, you wouldn't be like, oh.
He just wouldn't do it, so I can't comment on this in an appropriate fashion.
He would never do that.
Like, if him and Matt Couture walked up to the T and it was like, the roof, the roof, and he's just like, let's go!
And he's just bouncing his arms.
It's like, that's a fucking best golfer of him.
all time doing that?
I turn off the Tee.
I mean, it won't be
the first time he's done raise the roof. He's done that move
before. Yeah, hold on one, though.
I mean, a little different. Yeah, but Kiki Tiger.
That was great back in the day. I think we're safe.
There would be grass under his feet, and like we said,
alluded to many times, we're safe. He would
just walk up to the T and just play.
Dude, I of the Tiger, if it was like,
dun, d'n, d'n, and he's like, oh, shit, Tiger's coming up here.
See, it would be awesome. It would be awesome as he played in this,
and he was the only guy who was just like,
I don't want any walk-up music. He just walked up
There's dead silent, who ripped like a little stinger three with down the middle and twirled the club and it's like, yeah, that's how you do it.
The marketing director would feel pretty deflated after that.
Like pushing this all week at Tiger, like obviously has way more say than you.
Just like, no, we're not going to do that.
Oh, he's like, so Tiger, what's your walk-up song?
I've asked you a few times now and you're just not answering me.
Per my email?
Right.
Per my last three emails that you haven't responded to about your walk-up song?
What's it going to be, my man?
We need it.
And Tiger just never responds.
No, we're not going to do that.
Thank you.
And the next time, just confirmed receipt.
Yeah.
We were talking last week about, like, the most, like the worst and most annoying and most dickhead way to start a work email.
And I believe per my last email is the worst way.
No doubt.
It's so bitchy.
Oh, it's awful.
And then the worst thing that you can sign off with is before something is done.
Thanks.
Yeah.
Or thanks in advance.
Yeah.
Thanks.
Yeah.
Just do X, Y, and Z.
Thanks.
A little passive aggressive.
Little F you.
Here you are.
Here's my note.
If you don't get that done, per my last.
email is coming down the pipe.
Just so you know.
Get that shit done.
That's an auto responder three days later.
Get that shit done.
Per my last email, I just want to know if you got this done.
I got a per my last email queued up for you right here if you don't fucking respond.
I got, you know what I've been getting?
I've been so busy with Dave.
We've been traveling a lot.
And some people from the second floor or even guys up here that aren't in the content,
I have been doing this to me.
Like, they'll say, did you see my email when they know that I read it?
I read it.
Like, they know that I just didn't answer them.
How do they know you read it, though?
Because, like, it's a thing that, like, you just know, like...
It's an email.
It happened to me today.
Like, they knew, they knew I saw it.
And he was like, did you see that email?
I was like, yeah, yeah, I saw it.
That's a, did you get that memo?
Yeah, I was like, yeah, I saw the email for sure.
I'll get back to you, you know, when I...
For sure.
For sure.
Did you get my email for sure?
Did you get my email for sure?
But there was no response, but I for sure got it.
Oh, yeah, that one that you wrote and took like a couple minutes to really think.
out? Yeah, I for sure.
Read that sucker twice, didn't do anything about it.
You know what? I'm going to respond just when I respond.
That's what I'm going to respond.
Actually, so we use this tool Slack internal communication tool.
Yeah.
But some kid...
We use that, too.
Do you?
Okay.
I got invited to do that.
Deleted the email.
You know what I had to start doing it is the Barstow Classic.
Okay.
I actually work with the business team and all that.
You know, it is.
To be honest, it's just a significantly less convenient way of just I message.
It's very sure.
All of these people, if they, I'm on Slack right now, if they would just text me, it'd be a lot easier.
You get better notification.
Correct.
Now, this has to be part of like-channels and groups and all these things, but it's just group text messages.
Which is exactly what you can do on I message.
They invented a long time.
To be a sales rep too, they, so if you get like a sales email instead of it going to the sales team getting lost in route, they can create a channel with sales-specific leads to go into them.
Anyways, doesn't matter.
This is not a matter.
You just filled my brain with so much cute shit.
But anyways, the point being, some kids.
in my office sent me a Slack message and then
not two minutes later was at my desk asking me
the same question. The balls
on you to do that, I was like, if you come over
before five minutes is up, this is just will not work.
Yeah, Slack has just added to me a whole
another room of communication
that I wish were just all aggregated under one roof.
You know what I'm saying? I've got all, now I'm on
G-chat, I'm on Slack, I'm on text. I'm opening up,
you got DMs on fucking Instagram, on Twitter,
You're on Snapchat.
It's like, let's just get everything under one roof.
Where's fucking Ryan Howard when I need him with fucking woof?
Woof.
Get everything just hit me with one.
That's what I need with the slack thing.
But anyways, people are pretty into it.
So Zurich Classic is this week.
We, you know, it's the team event.
It's, it is intriguing.
Fine.
And I will definitely be into certain aspects of it into the alternate shot.
I think is awesome.
I think watching that is,
fascinating watching those guys be able to post good scores and you have to hit alternate shot is crazy town you get a lot of the dynamic too of like playing somebody else's golf ball if you got a teammate you got to figure out whose ball you're going to play it spins a little differently around the greens on your approaches all that good stuff so there's some fun aspects to it and the sunday finish especially if you get a good couple of teams right in the mix it has been interesting over the years like the big power teams that they usually have sucked yeah like they've all missed the cut and stuff and you get you know i think it was like that scott brown and like kids one year we're like in the final against a couple other against like uh i
Oh, who's that Swedish guy?
Like Blix'd and somebody else to feel like.
Jonas Blix.
Yeah, they were like in a playoff one year and something like that,
where that was before we like new kids as well as we do now.
So it's like for whatever reason, the team aspect that feel like hasn't really given you like the juggernaut squad.
So maybe we're due for that.
But it's a classic this week and then next week is Quail Hollow,
where Tiger Woods is going to play again.
It'll be really interesting to see him come out after having won the Masters,
how he plays in just a regular PGA tour event.
One of the most important things we do for our health every single day is brushing our teeth, yet most of us do not do it properly.
I don't even have to read any of this stuff because I just know it.
I started rocking quip about a month ago, I think somewhere around there.
They had sent me this quip.
I unpacked after moving.
I opened it up.
I could not believe how sleek it is.
That's the word that I always use.
For an electric, it's like the electric toothbrush.
You think they're like these big clanky ordeals.
Right.
I think it looks just like a regular normal toothbrush.
You just push this little, it's like this subtle little button.
You push it.
It just starts vibrating.
Then every 30 seconds, it pulses to tell you when to switch sides.
Most people don't brush for a full two minutes, but you didn't know that.
Leaving a lot out there.
Leading a lot out there, fellas.
A lot of space.
You don't want that.
Nope.
It pulses every 30 seconds, tells you when to switch sides.
The thing is just phenomenal.
It's gentle enough on your sensitive gums.
I have sensitive gums.
Yeah, you do.
I do, Frank.
Yeah.
Yeah, a lot of us do.
I bet you probably have sensitive gums in the world.
Look at your face.
Brush heads automatically delivered on a dentist's recommended schedule every three months for just $5.
Three out of four of us use bristles that are old, worn out, and ineffective.
Nope, not with QIP.
They had dentists and designers design this thing.
They work together.
That's why it's so sleek.
That's why it's so awesome.
That's why I love QIP and why they are backed by over 20,000 dental professionals.
Quip starts at just $25.
And if you go to getcqq.com slash 4 right now, you're going to get your first refill pack for free
with a quip electric toothbrush.
That's your first refill pack free at G-E-T-Q-U-I-P-P-D-C-C-U-I-P-P-C-R-T-U-I-P-P.

Questions, concerns, thoughts, stories, whatever the hell you got.
Email them to us.
We're going to rip through some of these.
Let's start with Joey.
Hello, Joey.
I don't know why I wanted to do that.
That's fine, Frankie.
What if Joey's listening?
You're just scared so many people.
I know I did.
It seemed like it was lost.
People are terrified.
So I saw a couple other people with somebody else with a similar hypothetical to this going around,
but I did see that Joey emailed us this on April 15th, so he beat everybody to it.
He said, would you rather play around a mini golf with Tiger Woods or play around of Augusta National alone?
Now, I know my answer.
It's just really a one or two.
So I repeat that again.
I heard the second part.
Would you rather play around a mini golf with Tiger Woods or play around at Augusta National by yourself?
Oh, shit.
Should we just all say on the count of three or something?
I don't want to swear.
I mean, I know my answer.
I do too.
I know mine.
People hold to do that?
We'll just rapid fire.
I'll start.
Hold on.
I swear to God.
I swear to God.
We don't have to do all the same time.
That might be confusing.
I won't change my answer.
Okay.
Good.
I swear to God, I won't.
I'm going to do it and I promise I won't change mine either.
Yeah.
We all trust each other.
I won't promise that.
I could get to.
There is a chance that if all three of you say the opposite of me, I will agree with all three of you.
Do you want me to go first then?
It's Gusa National
1,000 times out of 1,000.
Okay.
Reasoning, or are we just going down the world?
Just go.
Just because I'll never be able to play it ever again,
and I'm not that good at minigoff,
and I think it would be kind of quirky with, like, Tiger.
I don't think we'd have that great...
First of all, mini golf is so fucking fast.
You'd be done 20 minutes,
and I don't think I want that, like, time with Tiger.
I'd rather have it on, like, a golf course
or, like, at the dinner or something,
and I want to play Augusta National more than anything in the world.
That's my reasoning.
I'm Tiger Woods' mini golf.
I'm Augusta.
I'm Tiger Woods mini golf.
Wow.
I think that surprised a lot of people.
I think that surprises a lot of people.
Our reasons are going to be very different.
If I played Augusta National, I am a terrible golfer.
This is well-known information where my quality of the quality time that I'm going to have is going to be more fun playing mini-golf of Tiger,
exchanging stories, maybe doing a little bit gambling, just getting able to, I think being able to say I hung out with Tiger Woods is more valuable than being able to say that I played Augusta National.
And like I said, I'm so really bad at golf that, like,
I would be so terrible at Augusta.
I know how to play minigolf.
I can putter around.
That's something I can do.
And if I want to do that with Tiger, that would be very fun.
And I think those stories are better than the alone Augusta National story.
So here's my reasoning is very simple.
It's playing Augusta alone.
I don't think that memory is the same.
If I'm going to play Augusta National, I want to share it with people.
I think that's what golf's all about.
And being out and walking Augusta just by yourself, don't get me wrong.
It's a close decision for me.
It's very close.
What you're describing like walking around by yourself at Augusta?
It's like you're walking.
in heaven.
It would be even better.
No, to me it's not better.
Soft jams.
Like a ladder of small, like soft jams. Like a later than small set
plane. I'm just like crying.
That's the peak of your life.
Like your existence.
Like I understand sharing it with like, I would obviously like to share it with people
that I love and like you want to.
But like that is the peak of your existence.
Like you being out there in your own mind looking at things that you've wished that
you could look at and experiencing it by yourself.
No problems in the world.
Here's another big.
I mean, I might just hit like seven balls into the 13th.
I mean, I don't know that they're going to let you do that.
Why I'm a long?
Kind of like changing.
I don't know.
I can do it by yourself.
Yeah, I don't think they're going to be happy that you hit seven ballmarks on.
I don't know.
I guess that's kind of changing.
Like if you can just go out there and you have 20 hours to do whatever you want in Augusta,
I think that's different.
Like a round of golf is a round of golf, in my opinion.
But anyways, I, um, he always does a little thing here.
It's like he always has to change it.
It's a hypothetical.
We're also not playing minigolf at Tiger Woods.
Yeah, I'm just, I use the yellow ball, the blue ball?
Yeah, I think like when you factor that in, I don't think you can just go
out there and hit balls all day long, but I don't know.
We're going to get an ice cream cone after the miniggo.
Okay, just continue.
A big factor for me would be that I think there's a good chance I could, like,
sway Tiger to like me and we'd be friends.
Agreed.
Yeah, like you have a great time mucking it up playing the minigold.
What if he acts like it's a, I don't know, like it's a, like it's a,
charity thing, yeah.
Yeah, it's like a pro am.
No, that's definitely a factor.
I just think like I could mesh with Tiger.
We'd have a good time.
We'd be, we'd be mucking it up.
Maybe have a, like you said, like a soda, a soda pop,
play a little mini golf.
Yeah.
I think that would be a bigger opportunity and more like memorable of like laughing and with like such an iconic figure.
Whereas Augusta playing by yourself, I think that loses a little of it for me.
I think we're talking about a cultural capital here.
Where that's right.
What can you use?
What are people going to be more?
Who is going to have more questions about what?
Are this going to be playing Augusta alone?
Obviously lots of questions for that.
But playing mini golf with Tiger Woods, you're going to have to hold a press conference with your friends.
What did he say?
He makes some jokes.
Did you ask him about this?
What did he say when you had like a, when you made a four-footer?
Do you make a comment to you?
There is also the chance that I am just so nervous that I don't say a goddamn word.
What if he doesn't say anything, Drew?
That would be troublesome.
And I would lie to my friends and say that we had a great time.
How competitive do you think he would be?
That's true.
You got to let him win maybe the first couple.
No.
You let him win?
What?
I mean, I'm probably not going to be...
He's going to win the holes.
He's going to win anyway.
I don't know.
It's mini golf's a whole different bear.
I learned that the hard way playing against fucking Smitty down in Avalon.
You lost to spin it.
Oh, he killed me.
Pirates Cove is his home course.
So I played golf a smitty the day before.
I bet he didn't break 150, okay?
No joke.
Dead serious.
Can't keep the ball and play.
Can't even play golf, not even close.
He's like, I'll challenge you 100 bucks to Pirates Cove, my home course, mini golf.
I was like, sure.
My home course through a mini golf course is outrageous.
He held the record.
He said that so many times to me that I said it like it's a real thing.
He said he had the course record when he was a kid.
It's like he had like eight hole and ones and all these different shit.
I was like,
Whatever, Smeddy, I'll bet you $100.
Whatever you want, I'm going to kill you.
Your horrible golf, he was lights out.
I mean, he couldn't miss.
It was insane.
Huh.
So, mini golf's a different bear.
Never would have to guess that.
Bank it off the bricks the right way, and he just was lights out.
I'm talking, this guy legitimately could not keep the ball on the golf course in real golf.
Even on the greens, he was horrific in real golf out there.
And mini golf is all about.
I mean, you've got to make a lot of four-footers and stuff.
He was burying him right in the heart.
It was crazy.
Hmm.
I really missed that.
Good for Smetty.
Tiger winning, whether I'm letting him win or not, it's to be determined, is good, because that'll loosen him up and he'll be having a good time.
Yeah, imagine if you're kind of dusted him and he's like, who's the fucks this loser?
I'm going to lose.
I'm not going to lose this guy.
And then he's dead quiet.
It also depends on the setting.
Like, is it like an event where, like, everyone's waiting for Tiger to get there and, like, you shake hands on the first one.
I'm just saying, like, it depends.
Or are you just meeting him at your local minigoff thing?
And, like, the lady's like, oh, are you right?
He left this.
I'm just waiting for my friend.
I think it's, tiger just rolls up.
I think it's that same.
What balls do you on?
Let me just see what color Tiger was.
The way I took it, it's like one-on-one.
It's just you and Tiger playing a mini-golf.
And the other one is just you playing around to golf at Augusta by yourself.
So it's close.
Mixed bag.
I'm alone.
That's good.
A little bit of a mixed bag.
No, Frankie said the same thing.
I know.
But I'm on the alone side playing Augusta alone.

Eric, with a K, Eric, what is the dollar amount you're willing to spend today to guarantee a scratch handicap for as long as you play golf?
You are forever a scratch golfer.
Your game is scratch quality you can improve, but you will never become worse than a scratch golfer.
How much is that worth to you or as being a mid-teens or something like that?
Handicapper, Skull fucking, open parentheses, Frankie, close parenthesis,
satisfied enough.
I'd pay a lot.
Really?
Yes.
You'd pay a lot.
Yeah.
Honestly, I'll go first.
My number's zero.
I would say, I think I'm set.
Like, I'm...
What is it getting you, though, right?
Right?
Like, are you, like, are you, like, are you, like, playing tournaments?
Golf would be even more fun, being, like, better at it.
The only thing that would be fun to me, if I was guaranteed to be, guaranteed to be
zero is like shanking the ball off the tee and then hitting these amazing like cut or hook
shots around trees of the center of the green two putting that's the only thing that was a lot
of fun to make for whatever reason i think there's something to be said the current state of my game
is bad but i the good shots feel that much better oh yeah you know what i mean i've made this
argument a ton of time where i'm really bad but every so often when i hit a great shot it is
the best feeling i could ever imagine and i think if i was always a scratch golfer that would
diminish greatly.
Obviously, it says you can improve, and improvement is great, but it's just not the same.
Being a hacker and then hitting those satisfying shots, I think, is unmatched, and I get to
save money, so I just say zero dollars.
I just want to stick with the way I am.
Yesterday I hit a wedge shot, and it actually was the best shot I've hit in like four years,
and it almost jarred it from like, I was like 20 feet off the green, hit a nice little flop
shot thing.
I ended up going up in the air, almost jarred it.
Place went nuts.
The whole golf course went crazy.
You think anyone's doing that if I'm a fucking scratch?
no one cares. It's just what I'm supposed to do.
I mean, I'm thinking about this, right?
Like, people pay, people out there paying thousands of dollars for new equipment.
People paying thousands of dollars in lessons.
All these things add up because of what one common number.
They want to get better.
They want to be better at golf.
So what would I just pay to be a scratch golfer like tomorrow,
and I could never be worse for the rest of my life?
I'd probably pay 20 grand.
The only thing that bugs me is, like, there's no downside.
Like, I like the risk.
Like, if I don't figure things out or if I don't improve, I can get worse.
I just hate, like, if I went out there
and I was like, oh, I'll always be a scratch
and I can't even be worse than a scratch.
You know, like something to be that bugs me.
Does that make sense at all?
The peaks and value.
No, because I think that's your skill level.
Like, you're a fucking scratch.
And, like, you can get better than that, for sure.
But you can't get worse.
You can't get worse.
That's your skill level.
That's how you're going to be.
I think that's like, for me, that would be incredibly valuable.
That would be awesome.
You play any golf course.
You play for, like, you impress people.
And also, there's just, like, a beauty
and inherent, like, enjoyment in seeing the ball fly, like,
properly is awesome.
And doing that every time you hit the golf ball or 80% of the time you hit the golf ball would
be awesome.
It depends on what kind of personality you are too.
Like I played with a guy yesterday.
It was like a plus two.
And it's like he probably shot like a 74 and like I mean, I didn't even look at him.
I didn't really like pay attention to him play.
And it's just like what he's supposed to do.
Yeah.
And like like I go out there.
If I shoot like in 86, everyone's like, dude, fucking great round, man.
You played well today.
It's like that feeling of like, oh, it's just different.
It depends on what you're trying to do.
Keep that bar low.
Right.
Keep that bar low.
There is, yeah, I do think, like, having that variability means that your good rounds are more enjoyable.
100%.
You know, like, my buddies that are, like, scratch golfers and whatnot, it's like, dude, how much are you enjoying it?
You go out and shoot between, like, 70 and 75 every time you play.
Right.
That's, like, basically the same number.
Yeah.
Where, but then also part of me thinks, like, yeah, but, like, when I watch him play, I'm, like, he just rips the ball.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Just hits it down the middle, like, 280.
Hits, like, sick, like, long irons in the middle of the green all day every day.
And I'm like, that looks awesome.
Yeah.
That would just be a really cool feeling.
So that's probably why I'd pay a good amount.
Next one, David says,
would you take a whole-on-one-one for 10 years of missing every part three green afterwards?
For 10 years?
I think a long time.
Full decade.
Full decade, you can't hit a green.
He did add some good stuff in there.
He's like, which I didn't put in here, but he was like, you know,
you got a factor in that you'd probably have an unreal short game after that
because you just miss the green on every part.
three. You'd probably be pretty good at getting up and down.
But you missed every game.
My answer is a quick no.
100%. You can't. I mean, 10 years of missing every part three, I don't play golf anymore after that.
I had to think about it, but it is a no, just because it's so depressing every time.
So you made your hole in one six years ago.
And you know you still have four years left of like if this ball starts to look like it's going to go at the green,
there's going to be a huge gust of win. It'll be 30 yards so left.
I'm out on that.
I mean, you'd have to like, your brain would go crazy.
Every time you hit the bad shot, you'd tell your whole.
Yeah, I got that hole in one.
As it's in the air, yeah, I got that hole in one eight years ago.
Right.
How soon does that wear thin on your friends?
Like the third round after you got the whole in one.
You're like, oh, but remember that time?
They're like, yeah, but you just can't eat any greens on these part threes.
What's going on?
Like, a hole in one's incredible and I hope to God that I've, I die with one eventually.
Yeah.
But it's not worth missing evergreen for 10 years.
I wouldn't even know five years, three.
Yeah, like what's the number?
It's, I don't even go to get a year.
I don't know that I could do a year.
Right.
They could be infuriated.
rest of this summer, you're not going to hit one par three.
Your buddies take you out on a par three course.
Nightmaster.
Can't play part three course.
You go to ban a dude.
You can't play their par three course?
You get invited to Augusta to play the par three course?
I can play.
I just can't hit one dream.
Yeah.
This should be fun.
Yeah.
I just can't do it.
And they're like, I just made this agreement that I did that hole in one.
It's a really long story.
I got this sick whole on one.
And then I just haven't hit a green in eight years.
Oh, man.
Yeah, I have a hypothetical before we go to the next one.
It actually came from my dad.
Wow.
Mr. Borrelli, shout out.
We're sitting around.
I guess it was, yeah, it was Easter.
And he's like, what percentage of people in the world do you think hit their age in golf?
I would say.
You got to think like Jack Nicholas does it, right?
Was he 78?
What percentage of people who golf, I guess?
Right.
Yeah.
One percent.
It's got to be so, so low.
Yeah, there's only a sweet spot of a few years.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's right around.
Now that's the question.
What is the, what is the sweet spot?
75 to 85.
Yeah.
You think there's 80.
Yeah, because I know there are some savages out there.
There are some savages out there, like, 82, 83.
Who, like, look fucking, like, they're 50.
And those guys could go out and put up an 80, no problem.
Well, that's your close personal friend Gary player probably does it.
Oh, all the time.
You kidding me?
Yeah, I'd say 78 is the sweet spot, right?
708's the year.
Yeah, I think that's the one you've got to capitalize on.
It's the ultimate.
So, like, it's so funny being, like a pretty...
18 years old and breaking 80 would be unbleble.
Imagine being, like, a pretty good golfer and, like, always wanting that to be your goal.
And, like, you're 74 years old.
You're like, I'm not there yet.
It's like I have to stay healthy for another four years and keep my game up to try and hit my age.
Do you imagine how fucking intense that put would be for 78 when you're fucking 78?
You haven't shot.
You haven't broke 80 in like three years.
You're out there like, oh shit.
This is my one chance in my whole life to shoot my age.
The window is incredibly small.
Incredibly.
And you know it.
You're like, this is my one.
I might die tomorrow for fuck sakes.
You know what was funny about that question is it almost like opened up like a part of my brain where I'm like,
There are people down in Florida that are dealing with this.
Like, I know that there's a group of guys down in Florida that, like, retired, and they're all, like, 70 to 80, and this is all they try and do every day.
Like, we talk about, like, all our age stuff and, like, younger golfers.
There's a group of 70 to 80-year-old men somewhere in the world that are trying actively to do this every single day.
And they're shooting, like, 83s, and they're 77.
Like, they're like, I need to fucking do this.
There's definitely a group out there that.
That's all they try and do.
Sure, that's a goal.
I don't know if they're dealing with it.
I'm like doing.
No, they're dealing.
They're sitting around.
Oh, yeah.
They're not talking to their wives.
Like, they're sitting there.
They're fucking angry.
And then when one of them dies, they're like, he never did it.
You see, George down the street, he's dealing with something.
I guess he can't shoot his age.
He's really having a tough go.
It's kind of scary.
I don't think Beth likes him as much.
I mean, there is a group.
Oh, really?
Wow.
A whole full circle there.
I guess so.
Next question.
That was nice.
Ben says, my question to you all is, how much would you pay to play Augustin National if
if you could not.
Never tell anyone ever for the rest of your life.
That really diminishes the value.
Yeah, I was going to say.
And I assume this is alone again.
Is this alone?
You could never tell anyone that you played for the rest of you.
Because if I could play with three buddies.
Then you have to talk about it.
No, but we can talk about it during the round and then maybe stay at the club for 30 years.
Take an oath of science.
He's got drinks after.
How much would you pay to play?
It does diminish it, like an absurd amount.
A big time.
Tons.
I think almost everything we do in life is so that we can tell other people.
Correct.
Yeah, you want to talk about it.
Part of being alive.
Yeah.
It's sharing your experience with people.
I just took a picture just so I could show you I was here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's all it is.
Every big sporting event in the world is just like everyone's phone is out.
Yeah.
Still wanting to pay a couple grand, maybe five grand to play.
Yeah, I'd probably, yeah.
Five grand.
I'd pay somewhere around five grand, I think.
Maybe lower.
Think about how.
Does that include the trip down and everything?
Five grand all in.
That'd be infuriating to not be little telling him.
No, but you're still like,
people talking about it.
Still, you get to know.
Like, when you rest those eyes for that last time,
you, you set it against the sheets,
and your life's over?
I think you get a little smile there.
Imagine the Masters comes around every year,
and people were like, man, what's your favorite hole out there?
I would love to play that.
Imagine it would be like playing.
You're like,
oh, motherfucker.
Tough course.
That's the reason why I pick playing by myself,
so I can just, like, tell everyone I played there.
Right.
That's a huge part of it.
Yeah, I'm way lower.
I think that discounts it by 10x.
So what's your number?
I don't know.
Like if someone says,
Hey,
Riggs,
I got you around at Augusta,
you can't tell anyone,
but it's $100 bucks.
Like it's basically nothing.
Or like I'll bring you to like,
I don't know,
like,
I'll bring you on the best golf tour in the world,
like to like pebble,
straight over to St.
Andrews.
Like,
like you're going to pick something that's,
you can like take pictures
at and videos.
Like,
wouldn't you?
Like that's a good question.
That's like if it was like we're going to,
we're going to do a two week trip to like Ireland
and play the best courses in Ireland.
Ireland with all your buddies, like you eat some, all your buddies.
Or you can play Augusta for free, but you can't tell anyone.
By yourself and you can't tell anyone?
Oh, man.
I would probably do the Ireland trip.
Yeah, you have to.
Yeah, I would.
Yeah.
I agree with that.
Yeah.
Yeah, so that's where it gets a little dicey.
It's hard for me to put a number on it.
I'm not that smart on top of my head.
Patrick asked, just had a quick question as how you get your yardage is on the golf course.
Do you have a go-to-app on your phone for GPS, something like that?
Do you have a laser range finder?
Which one would you recommend?
So, I would like to start.
Yes, I use a rangefinderer.
Yes, I also was planning to do this rangefinder review video.
However, we then entered talks about having a sponsor of one of these rangefinder companies.
So I didn't want to do anything, jump the gun, anything like that, because maybe if one of those things landed, then that's going to change things.
However, I'm back in now.
Yes, I do use a rangefinder.
I've got three different ones that different companies sent me.
I do think they're all pretty similar in a lot of ways.
They're different in price.
they're different in quality obviously to a degree.
We're going to break those things down in a video very soon.
We have a very funny idea planned.
But I use a rangefinder.
I've been using a rangefinder for probably 10 years.
I just love it.
I love that you're able to just hit the flag, get exact distance to the flag.
And then if you know it's front back, you can kind of like deduce from there.
I understand that like the watches and stuff have like front back, middle, bunkers, stuff like that.
I like that with the laser, like I can just point it out to like a tree in the far distance.
If that's like 350 out, I'm like, all, I can hit it in that tree.
I'm not going to hit the tree.
I like that you can point a range finder at like a bunker in the green side bunker.
I'd be like, all right, it's about $1.90 to that bunker.
I have to carry something like that.
So I've always used the laser.
I've been using the laser for, like I said, like 10 years.
That's kind of been my method.
Laser's unreal.
Yeah.
I'm converted from an app guy that just told you front back middle.
And then would also tell you bunkers and distances like that.
However, then you're relying on the GPS to be accurate in terms of where you exactly are on the golf course, which is always the same.
It's a little if you.
Exactly.
So laser's the best.
You just take one second, zap it.
then you're good to go.
It's like the best invention ever.
I haven't had a, I haven't refilled mine.
I haven't put new batteries in mine.
So I've gone two rounds without them.
It's, it's an infuriating.
It's a battle.
It's like the most weird little CR3 battery.
Where the hell you sell?
Oh, man.
You gotta go to like radio shacks.
It's crazy.
It's tough.
First off, you've got to find a radio jack.
You got to actually make your way there.
I'm like any of these little fucking batteries.
They're like little peanuts.
Yeah, they're weird.
It's crazy.
And then, uh, so this guy.
This guy.
I gave you a relax.
This is a mid-show, relax.
Relax.
Holy shit.
I don't know what it is.
I think he's tense for the next series.
No, I'm fine.
We don't even know what we're playing it.
How can be tense?
You finished so long ago.
It scares me.
Your team finished so long ago.
It's all right.
I know.
I think that's a positive.
So I didn't have my range.
The guy was the guy who I was playing with.
Shout out this kid, Kyle.
Unreal.
Kid, had calves like Phil Mickelson.
He's called him calves the whole time.
Never seen calves like this.
I was so jealous.
He doesn't know that we called him calves.
We called him calves from the other cart.
So, Kyle, I know you're listening.
We called you calves the whole.
time. Your cares are unreal.
Telling them this way?
Oh, yeah.
Jesus.
I mean, it's good, though.
I feel like Johnny Drum out there.
Like, look at this guy's cats.
I can't wear shorts because I don't have, I have lady-like legs.
Even worse than lady-like legs.
Ladies have unbelievable legs.
Ladies dominate you in the leg game.
I have, I have Flamingo legs.
You do.
That's all full circle back to our Earth.
Go watch that.
That's Frankie recommendations.
Our Planet.
Anyway, he shot me and then shot the flag to tell me how far I was.
He was doing the math.
I thought that was.
I thought that was pretty cool.
No, that's a good move.
It's a great move.
That one's awesome.
But yeah, we've been, we're pretty much all here.
Laser people.
Then also I apply the little rule that J.T.
shared us on the show, which was now anytime he's got a, anytime he's a little bit in between clubs, if it's a back pin, he always goes with the shorter one.
And if it's a front pin, he always goes with the longer one.
I've taken that to my game.
I love that tactic.
It's a great way to play golf.
It really is.
And then a tactic for you, Frankie, with that shoot, shoot game, you were just talking about.
Blind T shots, first time of the course, just drive up.
To the area, shoot the T-box, shoot where you want to land.
You know, the club to hit back.
Dang.
Easy peasy.
Seems like a lot of work, but.
Genius.
No.
Sometimes it is blind.
You don't know if you can hit yet.
You got to go up there anyways.
Check it out.
Cool.
Takes some second.
Bill says, so Tiger obviously loves giving everyone a nickname with E.Y.
On the end, obviously like Sanzi, Joey, Stevie, all that good stuff.
Hypothetical scenario, Tiger and Trent meet and interact enough to be on a first-name basis.
They see each other over a somewhat recurring frequency.
Every time Tiger addresses Trent, he happily calls him Trenti.
How long would it take for Trent?
Do you finally have the balls to tell Tiger he doesn't like being called Trenti?
I take it to my grave.
Yeah, I think that's the only play.
I take it to my goddamn grave.
I don't like confrontation.
I avoid it at all costs.
And I would definitely avoid it if there was a situation where I bring it up,
and Tiger's like, well, if you don't want to be Trenti, then we're just not going to be friends anymore.
So I cannot run that risk.
If I'm in Tiger's friend group, he can call me, he can belittle me.
He can call me horrible names.
I'm sticking around and I'm never saying a word.
That's just the type of person I have.
What if he called you Jeff?
Then I'm Jeff.
That's it?
Yeah, I think that's fine.
I think that's better than Trenti.
Trenti is tough.
If he genuinely thinks like that's your name and he thinks he's getting it correct
and like you just don't have the heart to.
Maybe over a couple beers you're like, you know, I'm Trent.
You know what?
I'm actually Trent.
And then what if he's like, well, fuck you.
I want you to be Jeff.
What if he calls him Jeffie?
He starts to transfer
Hey, Jeff, Jeffey evolves into Jeffey
You're like, belittal shit.
Then I'm like, let's exchange numbers.
Put my name in there as Trent and that's how we do it.
He's like, okay, Trenti.
That's a tough name.
God, that Trenti is really.
Trenti's weak for whatever reason.
I included that because of how just preposterous it sounds.
Trenti.
Trenti.
That was like you were calling to your son.
It's dinner time.
Were you ever called Trenti at home?
Amazing.
No, never.
Never Trenti.
But like I said, I'm never bringing it up.
What's another one you can't do?
You can't do Todi.
You can't do Todi.
Todi.
Todd?
Todd.
You can't I-E or E-Y Todd.
Toddy.
You can do Jakey, Frankie, Benny.
I think you can do Todie like that.
I think you can do it.
I don't think Toddy.
Toddy.
Toddy.
Toddy.
Toddie.
Tottie.
Tentie.
Tentie.
Tentie.
Tentie.
Tentie.
Tentie and Taddy.
Tadie you can do.
Taddy?
Todi doesn't really work.
Buddy.
Pancakes.
Pancakes.
Yeah.
They're ready.
You're looking up at the...
Breakfast.
You're looking at like a really high, you know, I'm thinking of a nice, big house, you know, stairs that have the railings on both sides.
And he's...
Toddy!
And he's just, and it rings to that.
Yeah.
Papa.
There's a lot going on in that brand.
Papa.
Oh, yeah.
Papa?
We had a couple people asked this question.
Max and Paul.
I'll both ask this.
What is the value of Tiger's putter now adding the 15th major and...
and perhaps the most famous major, his fifth green jacket at Augusta.
What is the value of Tigers Putter now?
I was told the other day, and I haven't seen this video yet,
I think it was at Easter dinner last night,
that there was a video of, like, Scotty Cameron being asked this during the Masters?
Or maybe I miss that.
I thought, yeah, unless they were just blatantly lying,
but he said that it would be worth, like, $50 million or something like that.
Yeah, it's funny, because I believe somebody that's sitting in and was like,
you guys, I think eventually settled at, like, you're like, you settled at, like, $10 million or something.
and he was like now that it's like how much does that value change now that you've added a 15th major
I would love for Tiger so I think he's won 14 of the majors with that putter yeah I would love for this not to be
I think only a little bit yeah I think they said start to bid him except only a little bit I think if
he beat jack then I think it goes up significantly but I think only just a little bit you know maybe
12 and a half still I guess that's a 25% increase it's a pretty big increase Scotty Cameron if I was to
throw a number I'd say 50 million
Marco Mir, I'd say 20 million.
Good value at 12 and a half.
I think the word's priceless.
Is this just like a story?
Is this a fan fiction?
No, that's fan fiction.
I don't know, man.
No way Tiger put value on it.
He said priceless.
Yeah, so he, I mean, that's pretty fucking.
I'd say the word is priceless.
That's a pretty good answer from Tiger, I have to say.
And I'll read into this, and if anyone's like,
and if anyone's listening knows what I'm talking about, and I hope this isn't a fake story.
Scotty Cameron told the story about how he made Tiger's putter.
and apparently someone that worked at the facility noticed that it was a little bit off weight-wise.
Like you're talking a couple grams, right?
And that they decided to mill out a couple holes in the putter to get the weight correct.
And they filled them in with red dots.
And that's how they got that look.
Now, if this is a fake story, I want everyone to tweet at me and tell me I'm just a dumb, stupid boy.
I hope that's real.
But I got the chills listening to it at dinner.
and I was like, I've never heard of this before.
It wasn't in any book, especially ones with his face on it.
God knows what the hell of the name of that book is.
We were trying to think about it over the weekend.
I just couldn't fucking think of it.
I saw a lot of people on Twitter struggling, too.
It's always hard to figure out pictures of the books.
Some people get Easter baskets, right?
And you get like little, like, almost like stocking stuffers.
And that book was like a good stocking stuffer type of book.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that one was.
You know, Tiger just won the masters.
And you go out and you go to the book, you go to the book club.
You go to the bookstore.
And you're like, oh, look at this thing.
you know, Toddy's a big Tiger
fan, I'm going to get him a book with Tiger Woods
his fucking face on it.
Well, what's the name of this thing?
I got to tell them so that they can ring this thing up.
I think the name of the book
is Tiger Woods.
Is that it?
Tiger Woods.
That's good to know.
This is the true story that would be outrageous.
Looking back where that bit came from,
the amount of people that asked us
what the name of the book was.
It's fucking crazy.
I remember just tweeting back,
like the name is the face on the front.
It's Tiger Woods.
What is the name of that book you guys
keep talking about on the show?
Hundreds of people ask us that question.
Yes.
What the hell is the name of this book?
What is the name of it?
I can't find it.
Anyway, it's called fucking Tiger Woods.
That's the name of the book.
Shout out to Armicottale.
I'll be really, really upset if that was a fake story.
That's going to be a real bummer.
Even fake.
I enjoyed it.
I enjoyed it.
I enjoyed it.
I enjoyed the shit out of it.
It's great.
When you told me first time, just right then, I loved it.
I loved it.
Who cares if it's a true story?
It was a great story.
Let's just grab onto it and say it's true.
And the way he said, he's like, you know, because Tiger can tell the difference to do a couple
of grand weight.
I'm like, yeah, he can.
Yes, he can.
That was a story from that book.
Yeah.
The weight differences.
Correct.
That you could tell with the drivers.
The drivers.
And they were like, no, literally like no machine, like nothing can detect that difference.
It's like, that's not a thing.
And then they went back and had like unbelievably special machines that could actually measure them.
Oh, yeah, it's off by like a gram.
Yeah.
Told you.
All right, folks.
That's it for us today on, on Foreplay.
We will, of course, be back on Thursday, two hours.
episodes a week. It is, it's golf season. We are living, like I mentioned, the beginning of the show,
in this post-Tiger Woods has won 15 majors world, which is an incredible world to live in. The
possibilities are endless, multiple major championships coming up. I actually genuinely believe,
every time I think about Tiger Woods' golf game, I don't know how he's not going to win
every tournament that he plays. I mean, he's driving the ball beautifully. He just beat all the biggest
names in golf down the stretch at the Masters at Augusta National.
It's awesome.
Everyone that's going out these past couple weekends now in playing golf, you feel like you are Tiger Woods.
You're just going to rip it right down the fairway.
You're going to hit your irons to like an inch because that's what that fucking animal does all the time.
So get excited for play.
We'll be back on Thursday.
That's all I got for now.
Hit it hard.
Hit it hard.
Hit it hard.
