Oh, Rick!
What's that my brother?
I got a buddy who struggles with that shot.
A lot.
His name's Frankie Burrilli.
So the guys actually gave him a nickname of Butter Nives because he always knives to the cross the green.
Broads 100.
Now you've got to break 90.
We appreciate what you guys do for golf.
It's been really cool.
Thank you.
You're making it cool.
we bring you know.
I was like, hey, Phil, you only fucking $29.99.
And he grabs 100.
He's like, yeah, I won $90,000 of these yesterday.
He goes, take 100 and go fuck yourself.
What?
What are you that different?
It's ain't a hobby.
Four players are basketball sports.
We're live in North Carolina.
We got the whole squad in my place, actually.
We got Kirk Menehan on the show.
It's kind of a weird week, to be honest.
We've got a lot of personalities in town,
as we talked around the last show.
There's a lot of energy.
There's a lot of competitiveness.
There's a lot of mixing of brands and people that don't usually mix.
We did dinner, team dinners last night.
That was really fun and weird at times.
So it's kind of a weird environment, to be honestly.
Collection of people that usually don't get together, specifically on the golf course.
Yeah.
And it's crazy because we can't talk too much about it.
We had our first day to day.
We did, you know, we did our whole preview about who was going to be down here and like what kind of, what kind of shit was.
going to go down and I would say that day one definitely exceeded all of my expectations is what
I would say. Well, I mean, it's weird for me. I was here. I thought for a Bob does sports event.
He had that one ready. I don't. I would tee him up. But as Rick just explained before the show,
of course, now on the foreplay, it's much more nuanced. I'm surrounded by giant intellectuals.
I'm glad that you're able to understand. If you get lost at all, we'll catch up to speed.
For sure.
No issues with that.
I said on the, I went back with Dan and Hank in the, in his car on the way back.
I said, this was my, I think it was my fifth year at the company.
This is my favorite day ever at the company today.
Ever.
Really?
Yes.
Just playing golf with the boys and.
Well, that's part of it, Dan.
Yeah.
But there was other, yeah, it was just fun to.
Yeah.
We're dancing around everything, but it's like, you got to be you in like a way you've
never got to be you at bar.
So I feel like.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You're doing one of your favorite things in the world, which is golfing.
And then you were able to kind of be Kirk Minnehan, which is, yeah, we're teasing people.
We're just, it's a tease show today for sure because we want to talk about everything.
But yeah.
Do we have any timeline for when this might come out?
Well, it's based around the Real Rider Cups.
I would assume like right before that.
I think so.
I think it'll be a couple months.
Yeah.
And the editing team will be a part of it.
Yeah, yeah.
That's what I'm saying.
Well, Dave thinks the whole thing's going to be a nightmare.
When we got here yesterday, we were talking about it.
And he goes, like, what are we doing here?
and we told him the idea
and he goes,
this is insane.
I said,
yeah,
it was like kind of our idea.
We pitched it to Hank.
We, like,
wanted it to be,
have all the personalities involved.
And he goes,
that's a terrible idea.
So he looked me in the eyes,
he goes,
terrible idea.
This whole thing's a terrible.
We were playing yesterday.
Riggs and I,
and I heard Portnoy say to somebody,
what's closer,
Durham or,
Chapel Hill,
and I was like,
he'll be gone by like tomorrow.
I can't believe he's going to stay here for four days.
He thinks it's a terrible idea
just because of the editing.
Right.
He thinks the actual content's great,
but he's for some reason
so fixate on the fact
that it will be an impossible thing to edit
but I think the way it went today
it's perfect
every group's its own video
there's going to be a bunch of videos
coming out one video blends into the next
everyone will be so invested
for two weeks and it'll be over
oh so they're not gonna
they're not gonna broadcast it like
no one match finishes first
it's gonna be this match comes out first
then this match by match by match
that makes it a lot easier
I feel like that is so much that goes on
in each match you have to give it its own video
I like that's good
I didn't realize that that's good
yeah because we were debating
a lot of if we should do sort of like a one-hour version that you watch on YouTube
where they do like Saturday at the Ryder Cup.
Yeah.
It's just they piece together everything that occurred and when it happened.
But I think that's...
Instead you're going to get like almost like 10 videos, like 30 minute, whatever, nine-hole matches
of the biggest person at the bar still and it's going to be, each one is going to be great.
And it'll make sense because the way that it ends when you end on nine, those people are going
to be talking about, oh, what those guys do behind us?
And then go into the next video.
Done.
Today I think was the most intense of a golf match that I've ever been involved.
It was very intense.
Ever.
If we were, by all accounts, the most cordial of all the matches.
For sure.
From what I've heard.
Oh, is that right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
My match was kind of a dud, but that was kind of the plan.
Like, there wasn't much back and the way going on, but that was kind of to be expected.
There's strategy.
There's strategy of the matchups.
But it was like, what's interesting is there's all of this at Borsstool, like any, any fucking job, there's history with everyone.
and there's relationships and there's tension at times with certain people and then all of a sudden
you're in a golf match which is a very funny forum in and of itself but you're in a golf match
which like you really don't want this person to beat you yep it's important to you that you beat them
and they're talking shit and it's not you know it's just it's it's it was it was as badly as I've
ever wanted to win a golf match today yeah in my life yeah I got my first taste of riko this week
what a brain he has does he take
That's one way to put it.
He takes everything so personal.
It's crazy.
Rico is very interesting because half the time when you're with him,
like you'll be at dinner and you're like talking to him.
There's no cameras.
So at some point you're like he's going to kind of loosen up.
Nope.
He's not going to do this schick that you think it's a stick.
Then you find out pretty quickly it's never been a stick.
He is who he is.
You can make him, we were making him go insane last night at dinner.
We were talking about how he's an Alabama guy.
He's like a big Alabama basketball guy.
And then I go, oh, like I, you know,
I saw you in a video with Kansas State.
He goes, how many golfers are you friends with?
I was like, that wasn't what I was asking you at all.
It was crazy.
And then he said, so they were asking.
I fed him that line to be fair.
150, but I'm sorry.
I go, oh, I was trying to like poke at him at dinner.
And I go, Rico, I heard you were going to get like a tour of Duke yesterday.
And he goes, how the fuck do you hear that?
Because he didn't.
He ended up getting like scheduling conflict.
I go, bro, you told me.
There was the first thing you said to me when you walked up to me.
Me too.
First thing he said,
I was out to finish line with this tour.
Yeah.
And then he's like,
so I brought that up
to like get Dan to get going.
And he goes,
how the fuck do you know that?
What do you know?
Everything about me?
He's crazy.
I'm like,
no,
my little rego story.
I think from last night, though,
was when he's like,
he's like,
we're like, somebody said them like,
you should probably go to therapy.
He's like, yeah,
I went to therapy for a while.
We're like,
what happened?
He's like,
my therapist talked too slow
so I stopped.
Because I wasn't breaking through.
Because I wasn't getting results.
Well, they get results.
PFT goes,
so you want the therapist to like talk back at you?
Well,
to get results.
I got to move on.
I need,
I need results quick.
But you're right.
It's just weird like collection of people from just, you know,
but never interact generally.
So the official list is it's Dave,
Big Cat,
it's Kirkmanahan.
It's Trent,
Danny,
Riggs, myself.
Then you've got Francis,
Jersey, Jerry,
Hank, PFT,
and Arienne Foster.
Is Francis,
is Francis playing?
Francis, man.
Francis is going to have.
have a big year this year of videos he's been in some big productions that he's just going to make his
mark back on barcel i think yeah francis is another one who he reminds me of riko in a lot of ways
where it's like he he goes from he's a kind of person where you know you're told all the time
never get too high never get too low he gets super super high when things are going great and he's got
the biggest smile dude this is the best we're all down here when things are going bad he's like
this is the worst moment week of my entire life
I want to die.
This sucks.
And he has no middle ground.
And when you put him in this environment with these kinds of people, I think
Francis is the thing before in the practice round yesterday.
He was like,
yeah,
he's like,
I just want to have fun,
you know,
play golf.
I get the fuck out of here.
That's always his expectation.
Now that he's gone through so many bad barstool experiences,
he shows up to each one now like,
I'm going to be a ray of sunshine and I'm going to be the happiest guy here.
And 10 minutes in,
he's like,
this is the worst day of my life.
Yeah.
He's just always been that way.
And then we got we had dinner with Jersey Jerry last night kind of talking about matchups and stuff and
And we're just talking about who's good, who's not and he's like well big cat shot an 81 today. He tweeted it out on
And we pulled it up and Big Cat had made a hole in one on seven.
You didn't see that and think like maybe this isn't a real scorecard.
He's like, I don't know.
I thought he shot an 81 today.
It's really, it's really cool when all these personalities get together.
It can a lot of crazy shit can happen.
But that's what, that's a beauty of.
Yeah, I showed up on the eighth hole yesterday.
I was a little bit late getting there and Big Cat's like in the cart.
Clearly, I just picked up his ball.
He goes, hey, got a hole in one on eight.
I go nice.
He goes, yeah, it was cool.
It was cool.
It's cool.
It's cool.
we have to give a big shout to our great friends
at Chevy Chevrolet, the bow tie.
They've been doing the electric vehicles.
So look, at the end of the day,
we're in the future.
We talk a lot about the future.
This whole show, we've hypothesized about the future.
It's broken Frankie's brain forever.
Somebody actually saying from the gallery in that
they were hoping we could bring this up for Frankie.
We'll probably talk about next show,
but they said,
can you please ask Frankie if he knew
that automobiles and airplanes
came out at pretty much the exact same time?
I think that would blows mine.
I think it blows my line as well.
Now we're in the future so much.
We've got electric vehicles from Chevy.
Barstool's most valuable truck is the Chevy Silverado EV.
It goes zero to 60 and under 4.5 seconds.
It's got 17-inch diagonal infotainment system.
It's got 400-mile range on a full charge.
Do yourself a favor.
Go to Chevy.com.
Check out not just the Silverado.
But they've got the bolt.
They've got the blazers.
The blazers is iconic.
I actually want to get a blazer.
The next one.
Really badly.
Yeah.
I love the Blazer.
It's classic.
It's a good look.
So anyways, go to Chevy.com.
Check it out.
You can toy with the website.
You can get all the different bells and whistles on the EV.
They've got the EV family across all the different brands and models that you've known that you've come to know and love over the years.
Like I said, the bow tie Chevy EVs coming together.
Chevy.com.
Go check them out right now.
Sometimes when we're in our little like world of golf, you forget just how many ridiculous characters there are at barstool.
Because we're not interacting with them as much as we used to.
do at the office.
And it's just like, this is why this place is still successful.
Because there's just somehow you find these people that you just can't make up.
You really can't.
Five years for you.
Five years for you.
My fifth year.
Yeah.
I just had my fourth anniversary, which is stunning.
So what,
I meant to ask, what is the arrangement between your show and they just own the whole show?
Because it's on the radio, right?
What radio?
Is it, do you just, do you just, is the show that?
You don't know the impression we do it?
We're on the radio there?
Are you not on the radio?
I don't think so.
I mean, I can't imagine the FCC would allow that show on the radio.
This is going to go well.
Well, I'll understand.
Well, I see you do the show.
Is that just for, is that just for Barstool?
Yes.
Okay.
That was my question.
I thought you were,
I just thought it was on the radio.
I don't know.
You've seen some of these rants?
It wouldn't last on the radio.
Yeah, that's a good point.
Radio would still be around if they could.
That's probably true.
Yeah, that's probably true.
Yeah, I'm trying to figure out.
So I text my producer,
I was like, why do I hate rap poor, which I really don't.
But he listed a couple of things.
I think, like, the gold medal for me is, like, the one where you basically told Twitter, like, you can't make fun of Michael Block.
I'm like, if you're telling me I can't make fun of Michael Block.
You got to get the fuck out of here.
Like, if you can make fun of Michael Block?
He's there to be, have you seen him since this whole thing?
I will say that.
I saw that coming 50 million miles away.
I will say that the actions since, uh, since that week.
Yeah.
That's fair.
All right.
You might, you might have won the Michael Block interaction.
But I think you, Dan, though, I think you play the, um, you like a part of your Twitter game is, is, is,
playing the game big time. Oh yeah. And not fully just like when the business. I mean it's not a business
but it's part of yeah. You want to like things that do well like you want to sometimes you're like,
sometimes you're like oh, this is just red meat and you're just going to put that. But like for example,
when the Monahan, when Monaghan went down and the health, he was removed. Yeah, you didn't mean. You
didn't mean that health concern. You tweeted out. Something along the effect of like if you're going to use
this moment to like potentially make fun of someone who's potentially in like a health turn issue.
And it was like, literally everyone on earth was like,
this guy's the most hated guy in the world of golf
and then takes a leave of absence.
Like everyone's going to make a joke or something about that.
You had some level of skepticism.
There's a human being.
Yes, for sure.
But I was not going to publicly say, you know,
there's some things he keeps yourself.
Right.
And that's what I'm saying is like you're playing the game to a degree of like the,
I make,
this is the professionalism way to do it versus like,
you might be doing that.
And then a group text read to buddies might be like,
Oh, yeah.
How about this fucking guys?
When do you guys, for this,
when do you guys go the commercials?
When do we go to commercials?
We're on the radio, right?
What are we playing next?
I mean,
the Dan and Kirk, like,
relationship is already,
I don't even know where it's at.
I think it's pretty good.
Yeah,
I've got no problem with Kirk.
I would just say,
I can take it.
Let's play a hypothetical game here.
Yeah.
If hypothetically Dan and I were teammates
and you asked Dan,
what kind of teammate Kirk Minahan is,
I think you would say a great teammate.
He is a great teammate.
And look, hypothetically,
hypothetically a great team.
And I will say this.
Part of this is going back and forth,
and I can take it.
It doesn't bother me.
I mean, I enjoy it.
I think it's funny.
It feels like it's back.
It's not a lot of fourth.
It's not a lot of back.
I saw somebody tweet,
a show tweet on account where Dan's like,
it's like I just don't respond.
Yeah.
Which I don't enjoy,
but that's okay.
If that's what you're going to do,
I don't mind that.
That was my approach for a while.
But if you don't follow your show,
I think it's safer to just like ignore you.
Of course.
Yeah.
I don't blame anybody who does that.
Because like, you have to follow the show,
I think to understand the humor or the bits
or whatever fucking it is. It's a scary world to jump
into. Right. You've said this before. It's not that scary.
No, you're just like way
more witty than me and wait, you know? It's just
like you go into a fight with you
or you're coming out with fucking nothing like. I mean, I have the
ultimate respect for you because I've told you this of the
Charlotte Water thing back in the day. That was
what, 10 years ago maybe? Yeah, you told me you still
read it. You read it. I look at that often.
I think the videos. Did you not like her? I'm not
commenting on that. But I thought
the interaction was, I thought the interaction was
absolutely incredible. Do you guys know about this?
No.
So she wrote, we actually brought up again recently.
Nice.
Something came up.
So she was freelancing for the Boston Globe.
It was back when I was on the radio.
Hey, so there was radio involved.
I was on the radio at one point.
And it was during the Trump madness, like the peak of it.
And she wrote a story about how.
What happened with Trump?
What happened with Trump?
President Trump.
And there was something going on in, in some town in a small town of Massachusetts.
And there were like two people who had Trump signs.
And she wrote some crazy story about how like the town was snapping in half.
And there's just nuts.
And then she later said that we were at the Super Bowl.
And I think she said like somebody from my show like hit on her or something like that.
And it was like two o'clock in the morning.
I'm like I'm fucking in bed at like 10.
I didn't even know what she was talking.
She just snapped.
Trump broke her in half.
So I don't really remember the story.
I remember she was like she told some story about how she was at a party at Christmas.
And somebody was like, oh, this person in town won't even talk anymore about President Trump.
So this reporter, like calls her on the phone, like talks about it.
It's in the Boston Globe.
She tells one random person.
Talk about the Trump side.
It's in the fucking newspaper.
It's just wild.
It's crazy.
It's all nuts.
But yeah, I don't like her.
A lot of people I don't like her.
The video is he goes up to her in the airport and he goes, Charlotte Wilder, Kirkmanian.
She goes, hey, Kurt.
He goes, so why did you say, I'm not doing this.
And she turns around and walks away.
He goes, what do you mean?
What do you mean?
Let's just talk.
Let's just talk.
Let's just talking about how we're the worst people in the world.
All that shit.
And it's just like it.
That was the same as here.
You know, some people just, you know, instinctively think that you're,
you guys, I think are different probably, but like,
think that we're just like this crazy people because we work at Barstall.
Me'am with Barstall, there's 50 million goddamn liberals like left and right.
I don't even care.
Like the company's whacked out to the left too, which is fine.
Just look at the emails.
I don't, yeah, I don't look at them.
Riggs doesn't like them either.
No, I mean, I literally, I don't even know my email password.
What are anything on the, like, uh,
the general, like, Barstel fucking email.
I don't know what that is.
What?
I don't know what that is.
You remember that?
Oh, that's the thing.
Oh, that's the thing.
Lunch and learn.
I never got the jacket.
Is that the jacket?
Oh, the beast?
You probably haven't gotten nominated.
Is that the jacket?
Yeah.
Yeah, I thought you're going to nominate me for that.
I have nominated.
Basically, player of the,
player of the month in the Barstool world on the finance.
Hey, where are we that we're doing that?
I know.
Whoever is possible for that should just be,
should not even be fired.
Someone is taking company time and money to create that.
There was a deck.
There's a jacket.
They have to inquire with the merch team.
This is one who rigs his favorite games in me.
He does him all that.
He did it at the mini golf.
He did it yesterday.
He's like,
you started it yesterday.
He started counting how many people were there.
He's like,
while we count the people behind the scenes who are just here.
Because some guy came over and adjusted the high noon side.
And Rick's like,
oh,
that pays for his flight.
And stuff like that for why I even care,
it makes me fucking mental.
It's so interesting how all companies it seems,
because you would think of all the companies
that have almost ever existed,
that would never happen at Barstall Sport.
Right.
It just wouldn't.
It can't.
It just for some reason,
when a company gets big enough
and it gets away from enough people,
it's like, now we're going to have lunch and learns.
And now we're going to have the bar stool beans.
No matter what event I'm ever at before it starts,
I always look over and always just two sales guys
and always one sales guys does this.
He just kind of nods.
Are you working?
Are you working?
Go sell something.
I'm working.
Right before the final round of the mini golf,
I looked at Kirk and I go 19.
He goes, what?
I go 19 people.
When I nodded over towards all the people sitting around doing nothing,
he goes, this is the final round.
Don't do this time.
And they were like literally doing,
When I say nothing?
Like, some of these guys are really working.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That guy we saw, like, some of these guys are working.
They're guys working here.
Yep.
But then there are people who just stand around.
Yeah.
I saw an article.
I think it was in front office sports or one of those, like, they write about sports media.
And they were saying like, Barstool is hiring executives from ESPN.
Yeah, what?
Amazon.
Like, that's what happens.
Yeah.
I guess it's undeniable.
I think it's unavoidable.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You get big enough and it just, you get a lot of people.
We like, we like,
we like,
It's a report of ourselves.
Me?
Yeah.
I remember the beginning, the first year.
I almost got, we almost got fired like, we turned, by the way, chaps who tried to get
my producer Steve Robinson fired, is apologized subsequently.
And other people with that Benjamin Albright guy.
Yeah.
Portnoy was going to fire Steve Robinson.
I was two weeks into the job.
Yeah.
I remember.
And then there was something a year in.
Oh, a year in.
Well, I mean, this wasn't great.
I did give the, during the sales thing, I did give the password to the men of fans to go bombard
people during the sales.
That's my favorite.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's grounds for maybe a conversation.
I couldn't even make a case against it.
No.
But the thing about Dave is,
Dave's like,
I was like,
I won't do it again.
And he's like,
he's like,
all right.
Like,
he literally fired me.
He said he'd done a press conference.
Like he,
which I think he said he still has.
Oh,
really?
Yeah,
which I would like to see.
That would be interesting to see.
He was like a big company
by meeting with potential advertisers
trying to convince them to spend my,
and Kirk literally allowed everyone to infiltrate it
and just ruin the whole meeting,
which costs barst of millions of dollars.
It never,
no,
be winning. I didn't give any, it was something, I forget what it was. We found the
I forget. Why did you do it? Do you remember why you did it? Do you remember why you did it?
No, I'm sure it was nothing. I mean, I can't imagine. It must have been so small. But at the time,
I'm sure I felt slight. I've gotten way, I think I've got better at that over it. Because now,
like, they also just leave me alone. There's like, he's whatever. Like, that's why I think
to ignore you tactic for most people is the best. Well, I can't stand on your part. Like,
earned you like, you just live in your own world now. I feel like in the beginning of everyone was like,
Oh, he's coming over.
This is like from radio on to here.
What's he going to do?
Him and Dave fight all the time.
And now it's just like,
you are in your own world,
but you bought into Barstall things like the dozen.
Totally.
Okay.
Golf.
You're here on this trip.
Like that's,
you seem to have adjusted well to that.
Which I think is the only way of survival for people that are outside of the office.
We've seen a lot of people that they hire and they never come in.
They never like,
even Chaps talked about like he's been working here for how long?
Like seven years?
I think the first time he's ever interacted in an office.
office setting. That's going to be huge for people like that. And like, if you're not in those
dozen, you're not in videos like this, it's fucking tough, man. I can't even imagine watching all
that stuff just happening at Barstle and being like, yeah, I work at the same company, but I'm
never like a part of any. Right. It's got to be insane. To a lot of people too, Kirk. I think like
they ignore, they don't know your world. And all of a sudden they just see you getting like
nailed to a cross. Right. In a full stadium in the right. My favorite ever was then watching
the fucking, you guys watching the dozen match in that church. Oh, that was great. That was insane.
Yeah. That was insane. That was great. That was insane. That was insane. That was insane. That was
Same.
I mean, yeah, the dozen, like, is, I take, I take that, I will say, though, like,
I took today more seriously than I took the dozen.
Yeah.
And I take the dozen varies.
I take the dozen way, like, if I sign another contract here, it's only so I can do
stuff like this and I don't care about the show.
Yeah.
Whatever.
Like, nobody listens.
I don't care.
Like, as long as they pay me to just do, like, trivia and stuff like this, I'll do it.
It's a dream.
How many more shows can you do?
You sit around and talk about like, oh, it's something.
Who gives a shit?
I mean, it has to talk about Tony Fienow for the rest of your lives.
I mean, Jesus Christ, life's too short.
Well, this is a very nuanced show.
Yeah, we talk about this.
That's a good point.
This show is sponsored by BetterHelp.
It's much, it's very easy, I guess I would say in these days, this day and age to get caught up in what everyone needs from you.
Never take a moment to think about what you need from yourself.
We work a lot.
We focus a lot on working on our bodies, working on our careers.
We don't think enough about working on our brains.
You've got to have good mental health.
Yeah, I think a lot of people think, oh, what do I need therapy for?
What do I need therapy for?
Then they do it.
And they're like, wow, it was nice to actually get those things out instead of them.
Sometimes you got to talk to somebody.
Sometimes it becomes like a cloud in your head and you don't really know.
And then when you get it on, you know, you get it out and you actually say it, it becomes
concrete and you feel like you can deal with it.
It's a big deal.
Get it off your shoulders.
Get it off your shoulders.
Whether or not you've been in therapy, um, personally, you should try it.
You should understand.
Maybe there's a stigma.
You thought that there's a stigma.

I was saying a wrap, not to do too much golf,
but I was saying that Dan last night at dinner,
my buddy Dan, please be careful on the golf front.
What do you mean?
We don't want to talk golf that often.
Yeah.
Well, I'm just a little bit.
Can we do a little bit?
Sure.
Okay, because I can't do it anywhere else.
10%.
Just the Bob does sports show.
We do it on the big golf gambling YouTube show,
which I know you watch every week.
It was great.
Yeah, we don't have a four.
You guys have a frigging bed every week on there,
but we don't have that on the fucking gambling at.
How many people at Barcel do you think know that we do that?
Zero.
Like,
zero.
There's many salespeople who put an effort for the dozen things.
Yeah, yeah.
So,
the rider,
other than Schephyler right now,
like this is the first time in like X amount of years with the,
I think the European team right now is actually better than the American team.
Playing better,
other than Scott,
which I found to be a crazy statement.
Regardless of playing going to this.
I'm not saying they're not,
I'm not saying,
one through eight.
One through eight, yes.
But so take she,
they got murdered last.
They got murdered last time.
It's a new,
you know,
but take Sheffler out, right?
Who's playing well right now?
Wyndham Clark
Yeah, okay.
I mean, yeah, I don't think of him.
But, Rickie's Kevka, huh?
Ricky.
Ricky?
But Ricky's on the team right now.
Brooks Kebka?
Yeah, I guess he's playing well.
Who the hell knows?
Like, he's played well, he's played well at the majors.
I think, Max is playing terrible.
Fianow's been pretty quiet at the start of the year.
Jordan's up and now.
J.T.'s not been great.
Marikawa's not great.
Yeah, Kahnley's bad in the majors,
but he's good in every other tournament.
Yeah, he's kind of okay, but like, Roms playing great.
Macaroys playing well.
Haddon's playing well.
Havlin. Fitzpatrick.
Hovlin, Fleetwood's playing well.
Shane Lowry's having a good year.
Yeah, that's a good point because like going into the last Rider Cup,
all the American players were clearly just the best players in the war.
They were playing.
They were playing insane.
They also had all those old guys on the European team who aren't there anymore.
Remember I was on your podcast and Riggs was making a really good case to pick Kevin Kisnerover,
Scottie Schaeffler for the Rider Cup there.
It wasn't Sky Schaeffler.
It was Daniel Berger, who was, what's he injured?
Yeah, he was supposed to come back in May and it's supposed to come back in June.
Tough scene for me is that the time they should have picked kids was Paris.
Yeah, before.
That's when they should have picked kids.
I think he's making the team this year or no.
Whistling,
I don't think it would have changed anything.
And then when they finally did pick it last year is when he should not have been picked.
And he was awful.
Yeah.
Oh, they got me Freddie couples, so I can't get playing.
Fair.
Fair.
That was huge.
You're welcome.
I thank you at the time.
I think this show's friendly with the KMS, you know?
Absolutely.
Yeah, of course.
Of course.
We don't want those wildlings come out of the whole crew.
I think about Freddie couples every time I'm over a golf ball.
I've been,
I don't know if you've seen that.
I saw this.
I saw in your video.
Yeah, I really do.
And it's changed my game completely.
Yeah.
And obviously, and I said, I don't have the swing of him,
but thinking about that tempo has changed my entire gate.
Yeah.
He's a godsend.
I think about him all the time.
I think about him every day.
He's my favorite athletes.
Now, as a kid Larry Burr was my is my elite.
He's now my favorite athlete ever.
Have you ever had a conversation with Joey La Cava?
I met Joey La Coveman from a spring scene show at Albany.
And like, I think he was like, I was still at the EI of the time.
I was like, just so you know, like, like, what you
done with Freddy's metal.
I imagine,
is Cantlay going to give Freddy a run for your money
for your favorite point?
I mean, that's the thing about Joey going to
Canlay was such a kick in the nuts.
It's a very strange match personality-wise.
Yeah, I want to like Tom Kim or Hovlin
or somebody I can get behind.
Can't lay's in the fucking drip.
I'm happy for Joey that he's going to, I mean,
at least still like a cash cow.
He's just going to fucking finish top 15
in like every event that he has to.
And it's just going to be a huge check for Joey.
But, yeah,
I agree.
I can't really get behind.
I'm not like wearing a Goldman Sachs hat going to the fucking...
No.
He's just so uninspiring.
Yeah.
Cantley saw he left me seen on Instagram.
He does it a lot in person too with us.
Yeah.
Oh,
we were set up in the LACC on this like hill and you couldn't have...
You had to actually walk over us.
We did the Bryson thing.
Yeah.
You had to walk over us where we set up.
And Cantlay legitimately stopped.
He never actually looked up.
Stopped and walked a wrong.
round took a huge like deep breath as if we were like a problem in his way it was tough
and then it's earlier john rome said hello if you ask him why why would you say like if you
have no idea i don't know i can't even i think he's so offline yeah that for him it's like
this is just a nuisance i don't want to deal with this that the wild i thought the while frankie
take it dinner last night was i think he said that the tiger is going to win another major yeah
i think you will oh oh you have some wine last night he did they did a little bit of wine
But I'm with it.
You don't drink anything, Kirk?
No, I'm not, no, no.
We had it.
Frank and I shared a bottle of pino.
It's great.
We did.
Dan said there's no chance.
I don't think there's any chance.
None.
I've said this before.
That's such an easy take.
Yeah.
But it's correct.
Well, I think.
But it's basically.
In 2019, that was the take too.
Exactly.
That was the take.
That is not true.
That is not true.
That is.
He won the tour championship the year before.
He was the betting favor to win that week.
From 2014.
He was the betting, the betting favorite to win the masters.
We're saying for 2014,
2014 until like,
2000 mid 2018 everyone said he's done he should retire he's leaving with nine
old ago and Joe Branky yeah right but we're not saying the week before we're saying the four
years leading up to the world before the masters that was 12 yeah he was six after he won
we're not saying going into the masters we're saying like for four years before that stretch when he
returned everyone said he's done he'll never read he might be older now maybe more damage since
I could be wrong he might have to look at his Wikipedia page his his leg I think is in some rough
shape he can't even walk I feel I want him to win another major but I love nothing more and you
don't think that's going to happen. You know, intellectually, you know
that's not going to happen. I think he's going to win another major.
I think he can win at Augusta. I think he's going to win the master.
Do they play four rounds?
Yes, but he just got surgery
to try and do that. He wouldn't have gone
through this surgery for his planter fasciitis.
You are going to, these clips are going to
come back to this. So does he. He's going to stop
I would have. You're going to be tweeting about how awesome it is
Tiger 1 and how I can't believe people didn't believe and we're going to have
these clips. Tigers are going to save these fucking
receipt. Listen, I is worship Tiger.
I think he's the most awesome. I don't think he's on
anything wrong in his entire life.
When I have a child, eventually, he will be the role.
He's the role model.
You're named Tiger?
No, but maybe Eldrick.
Okay.
Yeah.
Adrian's kid is named Rory, which is awesome.
But I think this one, I think it's just too tall of a mountain to climb.
Where is you on the same side of us where you were saying if he had a golf cart, he would win?
I don't know if he would win, but he would have a much better chance, but he's not going to do that.
The argument there is like if he's just more mobile, he still has the swing and the ability to compete.
He's not going to be more mobile.
He just had a soft car.
Why do you think he got that surgery?
Because it was probably hurting like a motherfucker.
I think he,
I see him walking around on that,
on that Friday and the Saturday?
He said surgery.
I think he had the surgery solely
because he believes he could compete.
I think he had the surgery because
to make his day-to-day life.
He made two cuts.
Right.
He can make cuts.
I'm not saying,
I'm not saying half the battle.
No, it's not.
It's definitely not.
Couples made the cuts of matches.
He shot 79.
He couldn't walk.
Great thing.
He had to get 30% of the battle.
He shot 79, 79.
on the weekend.
Pre-surgery.
This guy's looking at what he's doing.
He's making cuts.
He can't even fucking walk.
Why didn't he get the surgery initially then?
What did he shoot?
What do you show over the weekend at the Masters?
We don't talk about it.
I mean, he didn't play.
Because he couldn't walk.
Shut up on anesthesia and got surgery.
Now he's going to be back.
Guys, he's got 7-79 and then he pulled out of the next year.
The first year, 2022.
This year he withdrew.
Yeah, it was true.
Tiger Woods assessed his game after the Masters and said,
I can fucking still do this.
If I can just get from point eight,
to point B.
I think this surgery will get me
from point A to point B.
And why didn't he do it initially?
Because there was like all this talk about him
not wanting to go under more surgery
and be out for longer.
He thought that he would be able to deal with the pain.
His pain threshold clearly.
I mean, he can deal with the pain.
He finishes the round except for the masters.
But he's going to have to be Scotty.
He's going to be Scotty Sheffler and John Romp.
Like that, it's there.
He walked in Tulsa like a week after he got in the accident.
This is like the guy can fucking do it.
I'm not saying he won't play.
Tiger Woods believes he can win another major.
I know at this point I actually don't.
The way he talks now is not,
he talks like he's just happy to be there.
He talks about he wants to playing the champions total.
This is all until balls in the air.
Once the balls in the air,
this guy shoots a fucking 68 and on Thursday.
He's also not young.
He's back.
No, he's not.
I also,
I think one of the biggest.
One of the biggest reasons at Tiger Woods,
I think we'll finally win another major is because Phil won at 50.
I don't think he'll let it go out.
Imagine Phil at one this year,
Augusta.
Where do you stand on Phil?
I've been like up and down like everybody else.
Freddy's not a fan of him.
I'm back in.
No,
they don't like each other.
And I'm down on Freddie a little bit.
And Tiger, by the way.
Why are you done on Freddie?
Not word one from either one of those guys.
Like all anti-live and this happens and I haven't heard anything from him.
Where's Tiger been on this?
I have nothing.
Very silent.
He's working on his game.
He's going on a marriage.
I mean,
what's his thoughts on it?
I know.
That is pretty crazy that we haven't heard from him.
I thought by now we'd get some sort of...
I think it's a sign of the times, though, that this whole deal happened, you know,
and he was vocally against it.
and it didn't really matter
because he's not going to play in any of those events.
Right.
He only plays the majors and those aren't owned by the PJ tour.
Maybe he plays RIV,
which,
you know,
but he's not,
he's not going to be a central figure
in this new company that they're building.
You don't think in any world
Jimmy Dunn ever approached Tiger Woods
and was like,
this is what I'm thinking.
Over that seven weeks,
like there were too big of a deal.
Yeah.
I don't think he told a fucking soul.
Not Tiger Woods.
You don't think they had a call.
I think more likely to be in the know
and he was not in the know.
Wow.
Just think of the size of the fucking.
the deal of Tiger texts like JT
you text and then it blows up the whole thing.
Yeah.
JT's struggling,
eh?
You play okay this weekend.
He got a top 10.
He did,
but it's a course where everybody's making a thousand birdies.
You shot an 81 at the U.S.
Open.
He did.
Yeah.
He did.
It's amazing that's not more common.
I agree.
Golf is so fucking hard that if you just don't have it that day,
it's amazing that you just don't go out there and like make 10 bogeys.
We'll be talking about that 81 for like years.
81 to me,
like obviously to us,
that's like a decent score on a fucking
US Open golf course.
You go play a tough golf course.
coasting 81 you're like pretty good for the like isn't it amazing that's not more common out there
that's how good these guys are yes i mean 77's like i mean this guy needs a new coach
but it wasn't the problem is nobody you're shooting that number i know but like just one day
you just fucking don't have it i mean some guys go on two month long uh batting slumps where they just
can't get a base hit i mean iron judge at one point like didn't make contact with a baseball for
like a month i think it's short game like they can still slap it around and just get the ball
in the hole and make fucking pars yeah i mean
It's like, it's amazing.
But golf's just different era of sport where you just don't give the guy the benefit of the doubt for just having a bad day.
No, you don't.
Has anybody had like, I love the, I'm going back in time, but I love the Chip Beck, Ian Baker Finch complete fall where they can't do anything.
Chip Beck was like played in three straight rider cup teams, shot 59 and like I think he missed like 28 cuts in a row.
Like David Duvall, like Ian Baker Finch like forgot.
Is that happening anybody really good recently?
Finch hit it out of bounds from the first team.
St. Andrews. St. Andrews left.
I mean, he was never as good at his peak,
but I think the best one would be Smiley Kaufman maybe.
Right, yeah. He was never, he wasn't a major winner,
but he won a PJ Tour event.
It's just weird when guys like totally like Duval was.
He pulled it across 18. He hit it.
I believe he hit it. He was probably over the road.
Yeah. Like over by the hotel.
That's like 130 yards left.
He had the driver. Yep.
Is there a video of this?
I don't know.
Like Duval.
I think Duval won like 13.
14 times like three years.
He was number one in the world.
But like during Tiger's peak.
Yeah.
And then completely lost like I don't think we've seen that, right?
Didn't Steve Stricker fall off the planet?
Yeah, he was good early.
But yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then another one.
Coocher, too.
Cooch.
Yeah.
And then he figured has he always.
Well, Westwood two years ago.
Yeah.
He had a little bounce up.
You know, that's your, you know, more experienced.
Did Cooch always play the hard pole like where he aims way right and pulls it?
He's always had that function.
Yeah.
So even pretty.
But yeah.
He was like an amateur when he was good.
Yeah, kind of.
That's amazing.
I mean, Molinari, but he still makes cuts.
Like, he's still out there.
That's not bad one, though, because he kind of stinks.
But you're right, yeah.
He's not going to murder him.
Yeah, he never recovered from that.
No, no.
That was a Francis.
And that pine cone.
Theoretically.
Not to be specific.
Right.
Theoretically.
In a simulation.
In a simulation.
So did I see that the PJ Tour and Piff
submitted like a four or five page framework
on what this agreement's going to look like?
Well, they got to give it to the feds.
They're going to Congress in a couple of weeks.
Yeah, it was, it was kind of, July 11th.
July 11th.
It was kind of what we already knew.
Substantive.
Pretty good.
It was, it was kind of what we already knew.
I think the biggest takeaway from that is that the board has full control over the future of Live.
And the board, at least theoretically, is controlled by the PGA tour people, which people today were saying live is dead.
Live is dead.
I have a hard time.
Believe it, it's just going to go away immediately.
But I don't think we learned that much from the week today.
But it's going to be July 11th will be a point in viewing for sure.
Are we allowed to be skeptical of Jay Monaghan yet or no?
No, no, no.
Okay.
It's a health issue.
There's vodka in this.
Yes, there is.
There is vodka in this now with truly vodka,
salters made with real fruit juice.
They like to keep it real over it truly, truly.
Look, they've been a big supporter of ours for five years now.
They came on when the Barstool Classic was nothing.
There had never been a single event.
There was no proof of concept.
There was just kind of an idea.
And truly came on.
They said, we love that.
We want to support that.
We want to help people enjoy their days.
out there on the golf course, we're going to be the summer drink.
Boom.
It's done phenomenal stuff for us.
It's done phenomenal stuff for people at the Barstool Classic.
And now they've got the real vodka seltzers.
They've also done a phenomenal thing for me.
They came in as the first sponsor for SideGig, which has been a series I've been trying
to make for my entire career.
And they made it happen.
So I'm all forever being dead at the Truly.
I love Truly.
And it's a game changer with the vodka in it.
And Truly is the greatest.
You know who didn't help make that happen?
Who?
Yeah, we're not going to get into that.
But truly, low sugar.
Okay.
Low sugar.
I got where you're going.
You know what I'm saying?
Fewer calories.
All 12-ounce cans have under 110 calories,
which means plenty of refreshing flavor will not weigh you down.
A refreshing go-to that's perfect for the summer.
They put summer in all capital letters.
Summer.
Summer.
We're excited about summer.

Yesterday on the flight here early,
it was old school.
The guy next to me in the middle seat.
had like a soothan and he had a couple of like a couple of like drinks during the flight
I was like early I'm like I never see that anymore what time was it like there's like yeah it was
like eight o'clock yeah it's no rules I guess how often people just say yes to drinks
also hold drinks on planes at any at unbelievable hours like if you sit like comfort plus and up like
and they ask you for a drink and you say no it's almost like the flight tents are like stunned
they're like no just water frankie's still rattled from a couple of things he's mad still mad at the guy who gave
It was nice enough to give us a ride over here.
That was crazy.
So we get at, we're at the hotel.
That was insane.
This guy gives us a ride.
That doesn't rakes how far you are from the hotel, like a mile maybe.
Yeah, it's close.
And Frankie goes, you went to get money, which is very nice.
Yeah.
Went to the ATM.
Offer the guy 20, probably was like a $4 hit in the ATM too, I would think.
Yeah.
He gave it.
He's like, nice kid.
We're driving here.
He's a nice kid.
And we're done.
And Frankie's like, here you go.
He's 20 bucks.
And the guy's like, no.
said no to my 20.
And Frank, he's like, no, it's okay.
He's like, give you one of the other.
Give you one of the other guy.
He goes, dude, I'm a manager here.
I don't need that.
And I was, I looked at him and now holding $20 down for legitimately a mile.
Like an asshole.
And I was like, oh, all right.
I was like, thanks, man.
I really appreciate it.
I mean, it was like a whole thing.
Like, he drove us.
Like, we didn't have a ride over there.
He's like, I'll bring you guys.
He basically was like, you'd like, fuck you at that point.
Oh, yeah.
$20.
No, you offended.
It made me feel like an asshole.
How dare you?
I think he might be rich.
He said no to $20.
That's a lot.
I say no to $5.
It's one thing.
He always for like $20.
He was just trying to do the right thing.
He was like,
have you seen my salary dude?
You're going to tip me?
He goes, are you insane?
He turned,
he looked at back at me and he goes, no.
He's like,
okay.
And meanwhile, he rigs is the governor.
He's like the mayor around.
Yeah.
He knew where he's like,
he's like, I know where he lived.
Yeah.
He was like, you know where I'm going.
He's like, I know where I'm going.
I don't like that they do that.
Yeah.
It was part of the Tori told me, yeah.
Oh, they point out your house?
Just in general.
Now, I get that people are going to kind of figure it out or whatever because it's the, you know,
the Pioneer's a small place, whatever.
They're going to figure it out.
I don't love that.
We were just like, oh, we're going over to Riggs house and we're like,
we can't be the address.
He goes, nope, I already know where it is.
And he's just like what was working at the, my favorite point.
It could be anybody.
Yeah.
We happen to be your co-o.
Yeah, true.
But it could be like.
That's why I don't love it.
Yeah.
Hopefully he knew like you and I and Kirk that were part of foreplay going in his house.
He wasn't just like, I think they did because he didn't know any homeless people.
That guy needs to start taking $20 because he's going to be fired.
Because he can't just be dropping people off.
Originally we had asked that the shuttle could bring us over here because we didn't have a ride.
Like hey, which would have been insane in hindsight.
Maybe he's a stop on the shuttle.
They've done it before.
That's what you know.
What?
Yeah.
That I don't mind because it's usually like people or buddies that I know they're staying at the hotel.
They didn't rent a car, so they're like, can we just take the shuttle?
I'm like, you can try it.
So you had a stranger, like, just knock on the door and be like, hey.
No, but I've had people steal my flagsticks that are on the putting green.
Yeah.
And I had people send, like, they'll tag me in a video or something of them like chipping or putting on the putting green.
And I'm like, well, I mean, it's trespassing.
I mean, I'm not going to be the ass on.
It's like, don't ship a butt in my pudding.
And then you're a dickhead.
So it's trespassing.
It's trespassing.
I think they knew that we were not murderers.
Hopefully.
My favorite Frankie, like, just general interaction with strangers is the five guys story.
Oh, yeah.
Well, that or the guy or the fucking, um, the Delta person in San Francisco.
The, that was at the gate that asked me if I asked if I knew how to count.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Well, five guys won.
Basically, I was like, can I, you know how at five guys you have to put on your condiments?
Yeah, you're.
Yeah.
So I say, could I get a cheeseburger, but just cheese ketchup and onion.
And then he goes
Oh, do you want like the bun too?
Oh, really?
And I go
What is it about you?
And I go, what the fuck?
I turned around like, what the fuck is this guy talking about?
So that was bad.
You got to now you got to tell the airline one.
Did you know any chance he knew you were?
No.
Oh, the guy was dead serious.
What did you say to him?
I was like, yeah.
You fucking asshole?
Um,
the airline one is,
yeah,
that's very funny.
So the airline one.
He came back into the office.
Like you won't believe what just happened.
High of COVID,
height of COVID were coming back from San Francisco.
Clearly all the airlines had changed their policies.
It was a time where they were,
where I didn't really realize,
but they were going from back to front.
Remember that on the plane?
Yeah.
They were loading back to front.
So I had heard,
I was row 14 and I had heard them say,
rose 15 through 20
you can now board so I'm thinking
to my head oh it's obviously just front to back
I wasn't even thinking about it so I go up there
and I'm row 14 and I go to hand it in the guy
puts his hand on my chest and he goes
excuse me sir do you know how to read or do you not a count
do you not a count
wow and I go I have my aeropods I'm like what
and he goes does 14 come before
or after 15
so I go before
and he goes please step behind the
gate and I said holy shit
so then when they called rose 10
four or nine through 14 I went up there and he goes look who learned how to
what the fuck is going on I'm looking at him like dude I actually thought for a second I had to hit him
dude I said that I said that I said that you can be like that dude I said what lanyard you're
wearing you're not allowed to be because I was with you we got on the plane and I was like
it's crazy not taking you out of here in handcuffs because you got to punch that guy in the
face I started I was maniacally laughing I'm like like what I have to hit you
You like I looked at him like I have to hit you now
Did you say it to him? No
I'm a huge pussy
Imagine if you fucking knocked him out of him
Oh and then I'm in like federal
That's bad
Can't do that
Right you can't assault
You can't assault anybody but you can't assault
I think at the airport
It's like a federal
Yeah that's a fake
One time my
You should try to tip him for letting you out of the point
What is it about you that gets this?
I have a punchable pussy face
It's just people hate me
You can't do anything in the airport
One time we missed a flight
A buddy and I
And they had closed the door
You know and they closed the door
And my friend just tried to open the door
That's a big nod.
To just walk on.
There was an alarm that went off and they ran over and we had to be like, okay, we're not.
So we had to talk away out of that one.
You know what?
Today, Trent is like the nicest guy.
Everyone says it's true.
He's like the nicest guy.
There was a guy there today when we were doing the matchups for today's round.
This like sort of guy who was maybe a member of the club, I think was drunk.
It was asking me all these questions.
Were you there for that or not?
I witnessed the whole thing.
I was wondering who was going to sort of like have the dick.
Ted response first, you were me, and it was you.
But he kept saying, he's like, who's that?
I'm like, that's Dave Portnoy.
Like, who's that?
I'm like, that's Dan Katz.
He's like, who's that?
I was like, do you want me to name?
Yes, yeah.
I'm like, do you want me to name everybody in the world?
And then the guy didn't get it.
He took your hand.
Yeah.
And he's like, he's like, but he's like, but I want him.
I'm going to introduce myself there.
I'm like, well, you can't do that.
But I'm not going to stand here and list human beings for you.
Did you say these things to me?
Yeah.
Yeah.
After like a third one, he's pointing.
He goes, oh, I know that guy for pizza.
Who's that?
Hey, I know that guy.
Kirk goes, do you want me to just name every person in the world?
And the guy didn't get it at all.
He's like, uh, nah, who's that?
So five minutes later, I go get the drink, come back.
And there's Trent just talking to the guy.
Just like, I thought that guy for five minutes.
I was like, I wish I had that in me.
Almost a point.
I was like, oh, shit, is that like a relative of Trent?
I just, I just, he's from Virginia.
I heard you talk about.
I know.
I know everything about him.
See, I wasn't sure of you.
were going to flip it on him because I was like all right I don't know how many times this guy he just
kept saying the same question same question I thought eventually you're going to be like hey can you
tell me who that is and point your bodies or something I didn't know talk about it though the moment
the uncomfortable moment after you say that to him you love oh I love that I can I can honestly like
I'm that close to ejaculate right yeah and that makes me I'm the other side of this I like have to
avoid that feeling at all costs but I wish oh I wish I had that in me because this is like I'm sure
he's a nice guy I'm like what what are you what are you doing like I don't
I don't, you know, I mean, list everybody here.
There's Jersey Jerry.
What do you want me to do you?
It's not my job.
And Riggs just sitting there like, I was like, yeah.
I was waiting for it because you played along for a while.
I was like, Kirk's being really nice.
This guy.
And then you hammered him with it.
You just want me to name every person in the world?
And there was Trent just like talking like, I was like, I'm surprised he's not here.
I know.
He's just, yeah, we're getting dinner later.
He's a good guy.
Our producer, Kyle looks exactly like Trent.
You ever notice that?
It's crazy to have two guys on the same team.
Kyle's my guy.
Yeah, he is your guy.
Yeah.
Massive fan of the show, which is nice.
He's going to Plymouth, right?
Of the dozen, too.
You heard that he was one of the guys, you know the story behind him?
Well, I like Kyle, I have a slight criticism about this.
I can tell you the story real quick.
Kyle, I think it might be one of these guys.
I saw it where he's one of these guys are like, like, I get everything right,
but I watch a dozen.
I'm like, uh, of course.
Yeah, he's like, if I was on one of the teams, you saw this.
Oh, yeah, the production team talked about big time too.
Yeah.
Or all like Kyle's probably the best actual dozen player that there is.
Yeah, the company.
I'm like, oh, probably.
You ever give a response, Kyle?
In pop culture only.
Sorry, yeah, no, in pop culture only.
Not sports?
No sports.
No, I'm a big sports guy, but I follow the Jets and the Mets.
Like, I don't follow like major league ball.
Everyone's an armchair quarterback at the dozen.
Everyone.
And until you're in that moment, like, when you don't know something,
it's the lonely's feeling of the world.
Yeah, I have a trivia question for you guys that I was asking the Barso Classic.
Trent, you can't answer this because you know the answer.
Yeah.
There are six professional sports teams that share their name with another professional sports teams.
See, I'm not good at stuff like that.
Giants?
Yep.
Cardinals?
Yep.
Eagle.
Nope.
There's no Eagles.
What hell are you doing there?
Was Jared Jets?
Oh, I would have never got Jets.
Kings?
Kings is a hard one.
L.A. guy.
You got four.
Two more out there.
Nope.
Nope.
What other sons do you get one wrong?
I get not be able to come up with him, but I don't.
Panthers?
I said,
Panthers is the fifth one.
You got one more out there.
No,
there's a guy.
Come on, Dan.
One more,
baby.
There's people listening to this
just screaming the sixth one.
We had a guy at the Barstle classic
while you think,
who,
because we've been asking groups all day
and there's four guys in a group
and it took,
most guys would tee off
we'd have to give them a couple answers.
One guy got them all right in a row.
It's not New York Rangers.
Texas Rangers.
Nice work.
I was thinking,
three of them in New York.
Black Hawks.
I guess it's not like,
I don't know.
Oh, obviously,
New York probably came up with them first.
Older team.
I'd say so, yeah.
Before the Texas Rangers?
Yeah.
Yeah, probably.
Winnipeg Jets, yeah.
And the Giants, for sure.
You're not like huge.
You don't get a lot of those sports ones, though, right?
I'm pretty good with like a certain, like before.
Golf, I feel like, yeah, golf, I feel like, yeah, golf you nail.
Before like 2000.
Yeah, I'm pretty good, like, selectively, but like modern, not great.
Yeah, not great.
You have, like, a disability when it comes to your master's knowledge.
That means everything to me.
It doesn't matter.
Like, to be able to retain some of that's insane.
You can have every single
1980 was
Sevy, 82 was
81 Watson, is that right?
I don't know.
Everyone's checking their phones.
I got no idea.
Is that your final answer?
It's good.
81 was a good poll
because you know that's a tough one again.
83, 70, 709's fuzzy.
Watson didn't win again.
I would say that would be Watson.
79 was the last guy to win it on his first try.
Fuzzy, yeah.
That was 79?
Yeah.
Watson pretty fucking good man out of boy
like that is crazy into like that not one that you knew off the top but you got there
that one's a weird one you do it where like you do the guys that are around it like you
if i don't think of it yeah because he's got to be so because i knew watson didn't win after like say
84 right where crunch out won because then it's like longer nicholas mys
baldo uh fellows lear lyles still yeah and then you have the other two foul the ones and then
woozing them then Freddie.
As this was happening in real time, were you so ingrained in the masters?
Or is this like later in life you went back and did like, I think wasn't super into golf until
like I was a senior in high school.
Okay.
Yeah.
So yeah, like Freddy's master's like the first one.
I remember watching Jack as a kid with my dad, but yeah.
I was so jealous.
My dad's gone.
I was so jealous.
I was happy for you guys getting to deal out with your dad was great.
That was great.
Appreciate that.
That was lovely.
You have to be an asshole, but it was a great experience.
I agree.
Oh, forget.
Which is you want to bring your dad to it
It doesn't matter

We love going to shows Alex Bush
Massive Swifty
I'm a big Swifty
Point is going to shows
Is as good as it gets
We figured out a way to go to the Ares Tour yet
I went
You did?
I went a couple weeks ago
No way
Where'd you go?
I went in Pittsburgh
How was it?
Phenomenal amazing
Everything you wanted to be
Yeah I was a little
I was a little bit overwhelmed at the sheer might of the Swifties.
It was just like a little bit much.
They just, and I got to be really, you got to tread lightly here because there's such a dominant force.
They're like water.
Like you just can't stop water, water.
Nothing you can do.
Right, right.
And to the point where, you know, my friend that I went with got banished from the men's restroom.
Why?
The Swifties had overtaken the men's restroom.
Yeah, yeah.
And we're not allowing him to use.
Two ladies rooms?
the men's restroom.
Yeah.
It just became another women's restroom, which I, you know, there's so many females there
that I get it.
I totally understand.
And my, my boy came back to the seats just scarred mental.
So you just won't believe what happened.
We're like, you were gone for quite a while.
He goes, yeah, I haven't peed.
I still have to go to the bathroom so bad.
They're like, what do you mean?
He's like, they kick me out of the men's restroom.
So they wouldn't even let him in.
He tried to reason with them and said, this is the men's room.
He tried to reason.
with them and I guess

So what happened was he went to the bathroom,
came back,
came back and he's like,
I literally was in line and I realized what was going on
that they had overtaken my restroom.
So I'm in line.
And I said,
there's no way they're using the urinals.
because it's females that have overtaken the dressroom.
So he goes up and he goes,
I'm just going to use the urinal while you guys are in line for the stall.
And they put a blockade of people up and we're like, no, no, sir.
That's going to like ruin our whole experience of you just peeing while we're in line trying to go to this.
He's like, this is my bathroom.
Anyways, came back.
He ended up not being able to go.
Point is the show was off the charts.
Off the charts.
We had this guy in front of us that he was the biggest trooper I've ever seen.
in my life, he was,
I don't even think he knew Taylor Swift was playing.
He was just filming his girlfriend
enjoying Taylor Swift the whole time
and like kind of half singing along to the songs.
And then when she would look up,
he would look back at us and give us the thumbs down
of like,
I'm just, I'm like,
I'm not here for the music.
I'm just filming because my girl wants me to film.
And he was just,
he was like,
but he was a beauty in it.
And he would like chug his beer and give us like that.
So he was having a good time.
Anyways,
going to events is fun,

Why don't you go to Rapport's wedding?
Good question.
I had an event.
In Chicago.
In Chicago.
Yeah.
I admitted that.
But you could have gone.
What time was the wedding, Dan?
6.30.
6.30.
Party started at like 8.30?
Were you actually hurt that you didn't go to your wedding?
Surprised.
Surprised.
No.
Surprised.
I'll say this.
There's no way your wedding was changed.
It meant a lot that Trent and Frankie flew in.
I thought that was super nice.
Yeah.
Like if they were in town, you'd be like, what the fuck?
If they weren't your wedding.
I would notice it for sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I noticed.
You got to go to everybody who work with his wedding now?
You work like three people.
I understand that, but like that's a, you know.
What did you think of that?
Dave hired me.
I wouldn't have to like go to his wedding.
No.
I think like, you were in town.
You were in the same town.
In town.
Like I do think that the culture of like having to go to the wedding is like like, like,
I think you're able to kind of stop in and like give your like you could have like a drink and then like congratulations.
Give a hug.
I was planning on doing Thursday.
What happened?
Flew in early to come in and do that.
What happened?
We didn't, we just didn't really like go out on Thursday.
That's not his.
That's not his.
Right, but he texted me, right, but he texted me that night.
Well, you're wronging your eyes at.
Sorry, like, he's trying to turn it into my fault.
No, but I'm saying that I had to take a sign on, but I'm with him on this one.
What I'm saying is I had planned that being like, dude, I'm not going to be able to make a thing.
But I would love to come in Thursday night if you guys are doing something.
He's like, okay, great.
Yeah, but he's a piece of, dude, do his whole wedding wheel around when you fly in to have a drink.
But I had pre basically said like, I would love to come do that.
I was planning to do that.
It was probably an hour that you could have been like, I'm here in a suit.
You're a dick.
Congratulations.
I'm heading back out.
Then you're just doing it for like a bullshit reason that we all bitch about in life in general anyways, which is like go put on a suits.
You hired them.
Go and show up and say hello.
It's not going to change anybody's night at all.
That's like doing something.
You're just to say that you would have done that just to do it.
But I'm saying like if you were genuinely like happy for him to like show up and say congratulations, but I got a jet, that would have been different.
But like, you're saying is correct.
Like you shouldn't have just showed that.
Is that why you basically were like, you were like, you were so upset.
You're like, fuck it.
I'll just wear these shoes.
Is that was.
Yeah, that's what it was.
Yeah.
Yeah.
be there.
I'll blame you.
It was a great wedding.
Yeah.
Thank you.
It was really nice.
We had a great time.
Yeah.
Put you guys at the golf table.
Yeah.
A lot of good golfers at that table.
We had a good table.
We had a good hairig.
No.
Bob Haring.
Blythler was there.
Bob's a nice sky ever.
Oh,
fucking Wolf Blitzer was there.
What's the connection there?
So my brother.
It's crazy.
My brother's wife's are their like best family friends with the Blitzers.
Oh, really?
So they've become like friends with the hair.
I didn't know he was there.
Did you meet him?
And then I actually interned for him.
also when I was in college.
I didn't know he was there
and then the dance
like the reception part of the wedding started
and I just looked up on the dance floor
and it was fucking Wolf Blitzer.
The time I locked guys with it was when
Daniel was getting tossed on top of a chair
and as he got raised on the chair
Wolf Blitzer was underneath
the chair view and I was just staring out.
I felt like I was stoned. I was like I can't believe
Wolf Blitzers here. It was a great wedding.
Great way. And I set the bar
high man. That was a good wedding. Thank you.
You're next Frank. I know.
I asked him for his 12 days.
I asked him for his playlist for the band.
I saw this last night.
Yeah.
It was great.
Yeah, it was good.
How are you feeling?
Good.
You look good.
Appreciate that.
Drinking on water.
I feel like the big hat's actually a sneaky blessing for you.
Huge.
Theoretically.
We wore big hats today.
Maybe we did.
Maybe.
Maybe I didn't.
I was saying to not get sunburn before the wedding.
I was a little nervous about coming down a pine hairs two weeks before.
I'm a very fair skin person.
I can get embarrassingly bad, like tan lines, bad sunburns where I peel like crazy.
And I'm like, shit, man.
Like, leading up into this thing.
I cannot believe we're down here in a hundred degree weather.
And then theoretically, our captain just came up with like safari hats as the joke.
And I was like, this is fucking perfect.
Yeah.
Because my face was just completely covered.
Theoretically, yeah.
Theoretically, yeah.
The other team isn't much of a team.
Theoretically, yeah.
Like really fractures.
It depends on who you're talking to theoretically.
Oh, sure.
No, I understand.
Maybe from one theoretical vantage point, that's true.
From the captain of that team theoretically?
Just saying it to me after.
There's a lot of theories around here.
It's true.
At this time.
After a theoretical one.
I think it's in a better spot.
So Frankie and Trent, by the way, keep in mind, a couple of things about me.
I am the all-time leading score in trivia over three seasons by about.
It's like Tiger.
Remember Tiger the World ranking?
He was like the highest, like double everybody else?
Yeah.
I have never been asked once ever as a phone of friend on trivia, ever, not once.
I'm good friends with Dan Katz.
I have never been on part of my take, not one time.
Dan Raparts about like 40 times.
Twice.
50, 60 times.
I never been on, which is fine.
Not a big deal.
Frankie and Trent are on tonight.
Sort of they want the sort of the alpha
forplay guys, I think,
one and two guys.
And you were not asked,
sources have told me.
I've also never been on.
So is that true?
And have been on now these two guys.
No, that's not true.
You and I were on.
When?
We were in a car.
We were driving somewhere.
It was Masters week.
And we were on for the Masters?
Yeah.
It was a wild, it was a weird appearance
because we're just yelling into our phone.
This was early days.
You guys were on too, not that long ago.
Frank and I were, yeah.
So what do you guys?
They just want to talk golf and stuff?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
What's that about?
I mean, what's that about?
I don't know.
You have to ask part of my day?
Is that upsetting me or no?
I mean, I would like to know probably why.
I'm not on the show.
Yeah, I'm never, I'm, again,
there's no reason for me to be on the show,
but it's weird.
I'm good friends with Dan.
I'm happy to go on any, whatever.
That other thing, I was in the car yesterday driving back.
Were you in the car during this?
Oh yeah,
because we got lost
and three of us
for fucking three years.
I'm in the car.
I'm like, yeah,
I might do a show
I don't know Francis at all.
I'm like, yeah,
I might do a show here tomorrow.
Francis,
like,
I'll come on.
What fuck are you talking about?
Come on.
Like, what is it?
I did hear him.
I was like,
I was like,
he just ignored him.
Yeah,
he actually didn't respond.
Well, it's a weird thing
because it's like,
well,
what if I don't want to have you on?
Yeah,
it's just a weird.
Yeah,
because if you go on,
no.
No. No, no, certainly not.
It's a dark energy when he's in on the podcast.
Things have just come out that they don't usually come out, you know.
I'll never come on again then, Frankie.
I love it.
What do you want me to do?
I live in this.
You ask me to come on.
I live in this.
You don't think I live in this shit.
That's a lot.
I love this shit.
Okay, I'm just no dark energy.
No, it's good.
Dan Rapport and I right now I think are in a good place.
I don't know about that.
I feel like you're trying to play something up that doesn't really exist.
By the way, you're doing that is weird of all the people in this room.
If you think about it, theoretically.
Why?
Me?
Theoretically for you to try and break.
Oh, theoretically.
Yeah.
We're in a good spot theoretically.
Oh, yeah.
Is there some sort of short, like short-term memory issue with you?
Did something happen?
I did.
I searched a Lyme disease last night.
Don't do you.
And one of them is memory loss.
Don't do that.
Joint pain.
And you can't process red meat.
I shit my pants last night.
Is that one eating steak?
I just went right through me.
Oh, the steak last night did?
Yeah.
Did you get a tick or something?
Maybe.
I wear pants so much.
I probably wouldn't even notice.
See, why did you, why did your, I feel like don't ever search something that happens when a tick happens.
Why did you go to Lyme disease?
Because I searched Can't Process Red Me and one of them was like, have you gotten a tick bite recently?
There's a new thing.
I can't, I can't.
Is it been a consistent thing lately with the Red Me?
Oh yeah.
I got to run straight to the bathroom.
Really?
It's crazy.
Could be Lyme disease.
Dude.
I was thinking like easily could have gotten something somewhere that I just, I mean, I don't even look at my legs in the shower.
Well, I think they're bad too.
Huh?
Well, I don't think they're bad.
Really bad.
Like in the best.
Oh, is that right?
Yeah, it's true.
I probably would have felt it.
Maybe not.
Not really.
I'm telling you there's a chance.
And after two weeks they die off and you just never know they were there.
Darrell Hall had it bad.
They're like fucked them up.
Jimmy Walker.
Jimmy Walker.
Yes.
And memory.
Substantive.
Yes.
Do you guys wash your legs in the shower?
Yeah.
No, I kind of let the.
Yeah.
I don't actively go down and wash them.
I'm with you.
You spend a lot of it.
So what's the shot?
Like, it's interesting.
I'm trying to think, like, I just took a great shower.
You did too.
Great.
shower after.
Good pressure.
Good.
I'm not going to say bigger people of the company were complaining about this.
I have had no issues.
How much do you hate where the knob is where you have to reach in and then?
Yeah.
Well, I do that.
I dart.
I try.
I aim the head away.
What kind of assembly is that?
Who designed that?
Why would you?
So at some of these hotels, they have a fixed glass that won't open.
So you have to lean around it.
So like I can understand that if both sides of them open, then I can just get underneath.
But you're.
forcing me to now face the faucet and then reach under it, put it on, and then it just hits you in the face.
It's crazy. I get in and I move the head towards the wall. Just an extra move that should never happen.
What percentage of the time in the shower do you spend back to the water versus the face?
95.
95.
95.
Oh, I'm in the end.
I'm 95.
I'm not,
I'm not that much,
but I'm like probably 60 front.
Do you go body wash or shampoo first?
I don't do a lot of shampoo with my hair.
I'm not a body wash.
I'm mostly water.
I go shampoo first.
No one conditioners, right?
Do you condition?
I condition.
Yeah.
We got like thicker hair.
Wait, wait, let's go back to back to front.
So I spend, I would say,
80% of my time
probably more looking at the water.
Where does it hit like in your chest?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I saw some graphic that I think like females look at the water more
and males look at have their back to it.
And I like,
I don't know what the rest of it.
And I sing more.
I sing more when I'm facing it because like a microphone.
Like I do because I sing the shower almost every time.
And there's an echo for.
Yeah.
Like I did like a great three songs.
Yeah.
What was the set?
Yeah.
It was Springsteen set.
I did the river.
I did racing the street.
Now I'll do this sometimes.
I will actually do this sometimes.
I said this before.
I'll get out of the shower with the, with the, with the, with the thing still going down,
almost like it's an encore.
And I'll come back in.
Oh, come on.
That's a dead.
That's, that's dead.
That's, that's, that's dead.
I mean, you guys want one more.
That is a showman, ladies and gentlemen.
You are.
You have a flare from this.
Then you want us off, but we ain't fucking leaving.
That's right.
That's right.
Put your cell phone light on.
That's it.
That's it.
That's it.
That back to front thing is interesting to me.
I would have.
never back 95% of the time.
I don't even know what's how do you even do that?
Yeah, I'm a front guy.
I've got to see that graphic because I might have it backwards.
Yeah, I like to kind of go like this like lean my head back and let it watch over me.
I kind of get this way like yeah.
But you're right.
It's weird in that shower.
It's weird but it's just straight.
It's a weird design.
Yeah.
It's like purposely designed.
They just messed up.
Do you guys play like you obviously sing but I think my brain has been so ruined by a content that I can't even shower without a podcast on.
The podcast.
Really?
He must be loud, no?
Yeah, you will.
You put it in the sink and you get the natural amphitheater.
A lot of Colin Coward.
You listen to Colin Coward?
Colin Coward, yeah.
You like Colin Coward?
I don't like Colin Coward.
You can't shave without him.
He listens to Colin Coward in the shower.
What's that?
He listens to Colin Coward in the shower.
Also when I'm driving, I listen to Colin Coward every day.
Oh, yeah.
He's a drip.
You can't shave without listen to music?
Yeah, or a podcast or something.
Yeah.
It's sort of comforting.
I don't know why.
Obviously, Nick myself shaving you out.
Obviously, focus.
That's true, I think so
Yeah. Shaving I've gotten like
I have a complicated relationship with it
It's just I wish I didn't have to do it
I don't have to really do it
How often you have to shave?
I didn't have like an electric one
Because I don't actually grow facial hair
So I just like buzz it whenever I want
Yeah
Sometimes it gets bad but it's just me being late
What's your relationship?
Why is it complicated with shaving?
Because I never
Because the way I am I can be sort of OCD
Like if I shave
And even like if I'm like out
A couple hours later
I feel like I miss a spot right
You dress me fucking nuts.
Yeah.
Fucking nuts.
Have you ever had a beard?
No, I kind of.
I had a mustache a couple years ago.
It was bad.
I have a great face for that.
It must be a big cat asking me to come on the show.
Who's here?
It's Brennan Jones.
Maybe Jones.
What about?
Is this upset you or no?
I would say it upsets me.
You seem a little up.
Part of it takes a big shot.
It can be nice to be out.
They're huge.
Credit to them.
Like I said,
great friends with Dan.
You want me to,
you want me to text them for you?
Or I can do that.
Then it's,
Then it's France.
You don't,
you need to France as me.
I'm just saying,
I mean,
if you want to do a spot with,
with Trent and Franklin,
I think it'd be great.
Should I imagine my text.
I'd like,
I'd love to come on.
He'd be like,
no.
Yeah.
We're just like not going to have you.
Yeah,
we're not doing anything tonight.
Yeah.
We're just going to dinner,
actually.
I'm like,
no,
I just dropped Frankie and Trent off.
I gave him a microphone.
So we,
we have a dinner tonight.
The brewery.
Yeah.
We're right.
Nice.
I love this area.
And then we're here to
Tomorrow?
Yeah, dinner.
You're having a new squad here.
Yeah, hosting everybody here.
Might want to be careful.
People know where you live.
You know,
we're going to show.
Be like, oh, he's having a party.
Well, this will come out Thursday.
Okay.
Oh, it's Tuesday.
That's right.
Yeah, we're recording this day, right?
Yeah, we're recording a little early.
We're doing our thing here tomorrow?
Shut the fuck up.
Are we doing our thing here tomorrow?
You're so happy.
Yeah, we probably should.
All right, I might do my show here tomorrow.
I guess.
Maybe I don't know.
Great.
Because we don't start until later.
We'll do gambling here.
Do you have somebody that's going to help you with the production?
One of these guys can do it.
I think it's colony.
I don't know.
We'd go grab one of the sales guys.
There's 20 of them.
They could just turn on, hit a button.
Circle back.
Yeah, yeah.
Big circle back crew.
Marcel beast.
Oh, fuck you.
What show, man.
Circle back Q3.
Yeah.
See where we're at Q3.
If you suffer from these symptoms of ADHD,
lack of focus, no productivity.
Your brain is constantly wandering.
We've all been there before.
You need to check out proper wilds clean all day.
energy shots.
This stuff is, well, it's phenomenal, one, in that it works.
It gives you energy.
We all need energy.
We all crave it.
It's so easy to get down to be sad to not have an energetic approach to this or that
or to a meeting or you make them fun of your own company.
You don't want to go to any of this stuff.
You can do energy shots and people have known about energy for a long time, ways to get it.
But the best part about proper wild, it uses organic caffeine stacked with L.
Kirk, how do you say this?
Is it theanine or T-A-N-E-N-I?
What's the word I-N-I-T-H-E-E-A-N-I-N-E?
Theron-E-R-R-N-I-N-E.
What?
Ther...
Ther...
Ther-N-I-N-T-L, I'm just going to spell it.
L-D-C-C-T, H-E-A-N-N-E, which has clinicallyally been shown to be,
boost your energy, focus, and productivity without the jitters or crash, exclamation point.
No preservatives, no artificial sweeteners, no horrible chemicals, just a natural tasting energy
shot with clean ingredients that work.
Go to properwild.com slash bars stool.
And Trent and Frankie rave about this.
This was, oh, this was instrumental.
I believe they came on for breaking 90 for a little bit for, I think a couple of Frankie's videos,
and they were raving about it.
They're texting our group being like, this stuff's amazing.
And apparently it's good for you.
It is because they've got that Althea.
green time that yeah yeah that we talked about earlier so go to properwild.com slash barstool to
try proper wild at 30% off that's a good deal I wonder if they mistyped that 30% seems like a lot
that's proper wild dot com slash barstool try proper wild for 30% off see you nine why do you like
the master's so much you love the master it's just it's just different you know it's just it's just
a different experience it's not like anything else especially if you after you've been there then it
becomes even like more.
I have such a connection.
It's all, it's like, you know, I like, I like everything else, but it just like the
U.S.
Open this year sucked.
I'm sorry.
It just sucked.
I agree.
There was nothing against the course.
The course was fine.
Didn't translate that well on TV.
Like you got all the writers were like talking about wonderful.
I totally get that.
I understand it.
But it felt like a, it was a garden party.
It felt like an elevated event sort of.
No, not even.
You know, travel was way more lit than the US.
I'm saying with like a COVID crowd.
Like there just wasn't, you know, heard that a lot.
Yeah.
I don't know why.
And they're going to bring it back.
I mean, I'll be like 80 at that point.
Because the USDA made so much money.
Cash cow because of LA, right?
They made so much money.
The first T was depressing.
There were more people on our first T today.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was depressing.
It was tough.
That's going to be their model, I think, closer to going forward to, which stinks.
Like corporate, corporatizing.
Well, they use it to fund everything else.
You know, make more money and that stinks.
Yeah.
Good for them.
And I guess stop running out.
Enough of these commercials where it's like, this is the toughest test in the world.
It's like, well, no.
Either make it that way or no.
Yeah.
I'm fine.
I'm old school.
I don't mind where they just get the shit kicked out of them, like plus six wins.
I love that.
Give it to me one tournament a year.
Yeah.
But then you can't have like guys shooting 62 and have that commercial 50 times with Jack and all these other guys.
Then work that way.
The average one.
Toughest test.
It's like he's got this put for his 61.
Where are you out on A-Zinger?
I mean, you know, that was a rough scene.
That was a rough scene.
But I kind of like like how crazy he is.
I'm with you.
That's Trent's take.
Yeah.
I heard you say.
It's just funny to me.
Yeah.
It's like I don't need a perfect golf broadcast.
Yeah.
If there's going to be some moments that I can laugh at because Paul Asinger is denying reality.
Right.
And just not what he's seeing is not what's going on.
It's going to stop on that show.
It's the best.
I like,
it doesn't hurt my day.
It makes my day better.
He's just going to come to a rest right here.
He's just going to miss the slope there, unfortunately.
It's not going to try.
Before I was like,
I have to explain to you people.
Like there's literally no chance he's going to get this to the 15 feet.
Yeah.
I was like, I've been watching us all week.
It's not that tough a shot.
Like it's as the ball was rolling the hole.
He goes, and then you're going to see here, it's just going to stop right here.
He actually said, it's about to finish rolling and then just kept going.
I've said this before.
It's just not quite going to catch a slope.
You guys, it's at the bottom of the slope.
You all like them.
I like them.
We're friends on Twitter.
It still feels to me that like Trevor Immelman is like, like Jim Nance's like son a little bit.
Really?
He hasn't like expanded that personality where he feels like Aisinger feels like he's a big personality.
Johnny Miller, my favorite.
The best.
Had a big personality.
Like, you know, I'm not with Immelman, he's like very polite.
How did you feel about, uh, Faluner?
though. Not great, but it still felt like he was his broadcast.
Like, you know, like now I feel like I'melman is sort of just kind of, you know, that's my one
announcer take. My other announcer take is the other announcers for some reason. I don't know him.
I think he's probably a nice guy. The other announcer is like no sale cold, no, it's like there's no
tomorrow. It's very weird. It's like there's a group text they all have where they don't like him or something.
I don't get. He'll try to make a joke and like, no, Frank Nobel. I'll be like,
yeah. Why are you doing that? I think they're intimidated by him.
Just fuck around with them. It's not that hard. No. Yeah. It's like a like,
When people call in, when your followers call into radio shows and people just hang up on them and refuse to play along, that sounds like, that's sort of what they're doing at Colt.
Yeah.
Because I think Colts fantastic on there.
It's just, yeah, I agree.
He's different.
I like it.
It's a different thing going on.
Yeah.
He's witty.
He's busting balls and those guys.
I'm worried him.
He's not going to make it in the long run.
No, I think that's wrong.
I like him.
I want it to, but I just feel like he's trying too hard to be.
And the other thing is, it's like perfectly playing his role next to Jim.
It's also weird that he has a brother who sounds exactly like him on the broadcast.
Like, sometimes I'm like, who is that?
Which one is that?
No,
I don't know,
I think he's got momentum.
He's got,
I hope so.
I like him.
He's starting to get those like where like, again,
those sites that sort of cover sports media,
they're like,
wow,
he's,
Trevor Immelman's kind of the darling right now.
They like,
yeah,
he's good.
He's not,
he's not good.
It's just like,
I feel like he's,
I also think he'll be better in like a Nance role.
I think he'll be better when Nance is gone.
Right.
Yeah.
I think like him being the lead guy that like kicks off the coverage and we hear from him
to close up the day.
He's not going to be the day.
guy that's like a professional that's like a whole different thing i would love to have him
no but it's like dan hicks it's like that's like a manse's gone they can replace him with like
the guy but i don't i guess what i would i would agree with you frankly that once nance nance
nance is such an iconic figure right that it was almost impossible for emmimal to come in and be
on the same level as nance yeah because well yeah jim fucking nance but if they had like hired phil
like three years ago like we talked about then it would have been different like emmellman's like
another guy you can bring in a play by play guy i'm saying like emmoman should be the guy
Right, and that's what Kirk's saying is that it felt like Johnny Miller was the guy.
It didn't matter if it was Dick Humberg or Dan Hicks.
Like it was Miller's like the other announcers felt asked Johnny questions around.
Like they'd be like, what do you think of this, Johnny?
Yeah, I guess not that hard of a shot.
I've done it before.
Yeah.
I think everyone in the world would be kind of walking an egg shell stepping into the booth at Jim Nance.
Like it's his booth.
You know what I mean?
You can't be there.
You can't come in and be like, is my fucking show.
Remember on Saturday in 2008, Torrey Pides and Tiger chipped in on 17?
Yeah.
There's an all type call where the tigers like trying to take a stance because he was between the green and the bunker on that steep up slow.
And he's like trying to take his stance and they're all setting it up.
And they're like, you know, this looks like a really hard spot with the knee.
And Johnny just goes, it's not that hard of a shot.
I was, I was a hard on Johnny.
He was my favorite announcer of all time.
I was hard on him because I was one of the the bozos, one of the idiots that got caught up in like, he shouldn't be fucking like, come on, man.
Like this is a hard shot.
But once, if you take a step back and I feel that way about, um, who are we just talking?
Oh, Aisinger.
Then I feel like you can kind of see it and it's like, oh, it's kind of fucking funny when
they do that.
I miss Johnny Miller.
It's just not the same.
Oh, it's great.
Nancy's got to be, he just did his last March Madness, didn't he?
Yeah.
So it's got to be coming to.
He's getting up there.
I mean, just Friday basically.
He's got a palace at Pebble Beach.
She's definitely doesn't need the money.
Yeah.
So.
Hmm.
We got an email from Barstool.
Okay.
Facial treatments.
30 minute.
Oh my God.
Many facial treatment.
Exfoliation, cleanses, moisturizes, and ends of the
Short massage.
When June 28th from 10 a.m. to 4.30.
Where?
Third floor back room by the couch?
Go sell something.
I just.
I don't know how it got this way.
I don't know.
Who's signing up to get their faces.
I remember when we first got one of those emails like that where it was like,
come get a massage upstairs.
I thought it was Dave fishing for people to be like sign up for this.
Remember when you did that with my out of here?
Yes, that's right.
Come down to my ad.
I might have to tweet this out again.
I feel like it's changed a shit load in like the four years I've been here.
Four years ago, I'd been like, what the fuck is this?
Yeah.
That old office, man, if someone even thought about getting exholiated inside that place.
No exfoliation allowed.
Our pores were clocked as fuck, dude.
I don't know.
No.
The only thing that happened like that at the old office and it wasn't even really like that was, hey, we got a tattoo guy coming in.
So if you want to get something on your arm, you guys, you feel afraid to do.
It had to be the purple starfish or it had to be the stool of stars.
I remember Andrew Manley, the tech guy got like a big, like an Irish flag on his arm or something.
Right.
And it was just like that's, yeah, it's.
It's gotten to a strange place, but I guess definitely, but there are moments like today, though,
where you're like, okay, you would not do this anywhere else.
No.
No.
Like, you know, like there's no job we're going to do what we did today.
No.
No, it's still the best job in the world.
Yeah, yeah.
For sure.
Absolutely.
It's actually fun to watch it turn into this because we can still be who we are.
Right.
I'm just like laugh at that.
Right.
But it is, it's only fun if you, for people that have, whatever you want to call it, the thick skin,
or you can take it or you, because otherwise, to bring it to France is again.
Like, I think he does struggle in moments like the word.
It's like, dude, what the fuck?
I was supposed to be golfing with the,
this is like a golf buddies trip, right?
It's like, well, but nobody thought that.
Like nobody thought that.
You're nuts if you thought that.
There was a kid that I used to work with Bailey B.W. Carlin.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
He used to work at Barstallel.
Yeah, and he can, I don't think he, I don't think he can.
Yeah, I think he could do it.
Yeah.
You have to.
Nice kid, but yeah, you have to, you have to have a certain thickness.
For sure.
It's not easy.
Especially when you, Rick's about to go cry in the bathroom.
He's not part of my take.
But yeah, he's a tough guy.
It was fucking broken at half.
I am curious.
I'm curious about why, where they dream.
Well, it's Mount Rushmore weekend.
They want the two Mount Rushmore guys for the largest podcast.
We are in Mount Rushmore season.
I would think it's probably you two, I would guess.
They didn't ask me and I was like, well, I'd go with those two guys.
We had fucking rigs on.
He's two new odds.
You can't have that.
It's a bro podcast.
There's no laughing.
