Let's talk some golf.
Really went into depth about Trent Daddy's all-time round out at Aaron Hills.
The rest of us getting our absolute shit pushed in hard by Aaron Hills.
Yep, Aaron Hill is the best.
I mean, it's great.
We've been rocking all their stuff.
I pulled out.
So they gave us these custom glasses.
We obviously had a whole thing on that show.
Frankie, or he gave him away to, what was that, a family member?
Potentially father-in-law?
Yeah, once we started talking about it, I think someone made a mention, like, oh, they'd
said Lurchy, Aaron Hills on it or something.
I immediately sent the text, checked the glasses.
They have my name on it.
We need to get them out and say that he lost them.
Luckily, he's already making Fescue Rescues in the glasses, no name on it.
So you know what else is in that bag that I didn't even know?
is a Aaron Hills logo bottle opener.
Oh, yeah.
The thing's awesome.
That thing has our initials on.
That's got our initials on.
I don't give that one away.
Actually, I have no idea where that is.
I got to look for that when I get home.
You know, Lurch, I left my glass at dinner.
So you're only to one.
I'm down to one.
So they gave us these, you know, we check into our rooms.
And in the rooms are a bag for each of us.
And the bag has this box with two glasses like we mentioned.
They're custom.
They say, Fesky Rescue, Aaron Hills on them.
Very, very cool, nice personal touch.
That's just one of the million reasons we love Aaron Hills.
And then I immediately poured a Fescue Rescue into that glass.
Then we went to dinner.
Lurch and I had a conversation on the way there of like, hey,
I don't know if I'm going to bring my glass because I don't want to leave it at dinner.
I was like, I won't leave it off.
And then I just left it.
So I'm down to one glass.
But I didn't realize until last night when I was unpacking finally that they gave us that bottle opener.
Really nice touch.
Oh, my God.
Very nice.
I got to start drinking things that are bottled.
Yeah, I popped a beer with it with my brother.
As soon as I get home, well, not as soon.
But the next night on Sunday night, had a nice beer out of those.
You ever do that move?
You ever use a bottle opener if you have a nice one on something that doesn't need it, like a twist off?
Totally.
Yeah, you got to.
If you're in a nice spot, like the whole college joke, you don't know your beers because you like twist it off.
That's a complete joke.
But if you're in a nice spot and there's a bottle opener near you, always popping it.
Not even caring about a twist.
Same.
It's great.
Unless I'm drinking, actually, that's not true.
Unless I have a Budweiser or Budlight in my hand, I just twist that right off.
But anything else, I'm popping.
Well, those are literally like what I was thinking of.
Why were you thinking of?
I don't know.
There's other beers out there that are twist off.
I was thinking of, like, Mexico.
I was thinking of Mexican polis.
I don't know, something about.
Those are always, they're never twist off.
Yeah, those are not.
No.
No, Mexican twists or Mexican colas are always pop.
Yeah.
I always pop them because it's a treat to have one.
so I would never twist it even if they gave me the option.
Every Christmas, my aunt has those Mexican colas,
and they give all of us one during dinner,
and I always take a picture and put it out on my little social meeting,
and I write blessed,
because I do believe it's like one of the biggest blessings in the world
to drink a Coca-Cola out of a glass.
There's a little bodega near my office that has them.
I go in there probably...
Taste so much better.
Probably once a month.
And go in there and grab that in an ice cream sticker bar
and have myself a little bit of it.
Yeah, anytime I get Mexican food, like if I get something post-mated,
I just always get Mexican food.
Coke.
Well, it's just better.
Out of a glass bottle, it's one of the real cane sugar.
Yeah.
What does that even mean?
I don't know.
No idea.
It's a placebo, I think, but I still.
What's the other stuff then?
High fructose.
I think it's like, it's like rots your brain or something.
Okay.
I don't know what it is.
Me either.
Are you cold right now, Trentette?
You look freezing.
No, I feel good.
Get your hands in your front little pocket like it's wintertime.
I'm literally peeling from my Aaron Hills burn.
These places, you never know if it's going to be warmer, just freezing in here.
My skin's falling off.
You look freezing, Trent.
I walked around New York City in this.
a hoodie today.
It was a mistake.
I was sweating a lot.
You have a hoodie and pants on.
Well, yeah,
the pants are pretty standard.
Pants are pretty standard,
but these hoodies that the bar still outdoors ones are so nice
that I just like wearing it,
even though it's 85 degrees outside.
I don't know how you guys.
You guys rock pants.
All the time.
This summer heat.
It's one of the crazier things.
Shorts are.
Childish.
They are.
That's all there is to say.
It's kind of,
Trent, have you always been a pants guy?
No.
So you can't just claim shorts or child.
He used to wear one of your child.
I grew up.
How long ago?
Do you hate your legs?
Do you hate your legs or Frankie hates his legs?
No, I don't hate my legs.
And when we parcel the big brain, we sponsored some shorts.
I forget what they're, it's bad, but I forget what they're called.
But I wore shorts that day.
Junking your trunk.
That's what it is.
I wore them and I put it on Instagram.
I got a nice, a lot of young ladies.
Trin's got thick legs.
Tren's legs have actually now, they're in.
Like maybe at one point your legs were frowned upon, but now your legs are in.
When I put a picture of them up on my Instagram,
Boy, oh boy, did I get some attention from the opposite.
I'm sure.
How do you then hide those bad boys?
It's just, I think they're childish.
I think shorts are challenged.
Showing your kneecaps in a place of work should be frowned upon, you know?
Like walking around and I got to see you're discussing kneecaps.
Like put on a pair of pants.
What is it, an extra five inches of fucking fabric?
You can have an honest conversation with you without pants because you won't wear.
What are they?
Because you're so self-conscious.
Five or six inches more of like.
Dude, you know how much that airflow getting in through your legs and in your shorts and helps and makes
everything feel better on a hot day. I wear Tommy Johns. I'm feeling great all the time.
Yeah, I wear Tommy Johns too. It's nice to have more airflow no matter what I'm wearing.
I got cancels too, which I don't hate. A good honest moment there to close up the segment on
some people are more judgmental than others. And I'd rather be judged on the merit of my character.
Since we were just talking about Aaron Hills, I just got a live update. So you guys are listening
to this on Thursday. This is happening at Wednesday at 7 o'clock at night. No, that was last
week, August 13th. We'll catch it next year. Ryan Whitney is currently playing.
Aaron Hills right now. He's on the 18th T-Bock. He's on the 18th. He's
310 yards out. He's won over. That's such a long hole. He's one over. He said he
will birdie this to shoot a 72. I'd avoid that green side bunker if I were him. We'll see
what he says. Which hole 18? 18. He's 310 out and he said he will
birdie and shoot a 72. Tough hole. Very tough hole. That's a fucking hell of an
outing out there because that golf course is not easy. Yeah. 70. Yeah. It's a good golf.
I do think if you're hitting it in the fairway there, it's not that hard.
I really don't, I just, I don't think, that's the way that I see that course.
Yeah, I mean, we shot hundreds and stuff.
But we miss, I was in the festival the whole time.
We did, like, the things that we did.
Like, we just did it.
It's hard.
If I fucking got the ball in the hole all the time, I would shoot great scores.
I mean, I want to say, I want to agree with you, but there was one time I was on the green looking for a 20 footer for birdie and I putted it off the green and made a six.
But you're a horrible putter.
No, I know.
But I'm just saying, I mean, I can't use that same.
common as you of if I was only in the fairway.
I was literally just a fairway for, I would say, 70, 75% holes.
Like, there's, it's kind of hard to, like, hold the greens and stuff, too.
They're not fucking easy.
No.
No, they're definitely not easy.
I would just, my interpretation from the course was, like, I saw, you know, when we were,
when we were there with our first group, we had a couple guys that were hitting fairways
and playing well, like Trent Daddy was able to shoot one of the lowest rounds of his career.
Yeah.
Yeah.
at Aaron Hills driving the ball really well.
So to me, I just thought that that place is, I feel like, you know, some place, like a lot of places, a lot of places that we play in New England are tree lined with dog legs.
And if you hit the ball sideways off the tee, it hits a tree and comes straight down.
You can still punch something like up near a green and like try to get up and down, make bogeys.
And Aaron Hills, if you miss the fairways by like five yards a buck, you're just fucked all the time.
Right.
Unplayable.
Yeah.
So I guess my thing.
But I think a course like that, to me, I mean, adds up to more blowups than, of course, it's not.
So that's why to me that course is so much harder.
It does.
It definitely adds to more blowups.
God forbid, even if you're hitting the fairway all day, God forbid, like we saw with you, you missed the fairway by fucking six yards and you can't get out.
Yeah, you're fucked.
Fucked.
There's a lot of trouble out there.
That's a good point.
I mean, Trent Daddy did tear that place up.
To Trent Daddy's game, you tore the place up.
For sure.
It was awesome.
144 at Bethpage.
Yeah.
100 102 at aeronels.
And it should have been, yeah, well, I'm not going to get into it.
Oh, you were stepping up to 17 with what, an 85?
Yeah.
14 shots.
Dude, technically, you could have fucking shot at 95, 96, man.
Yeah.
Oh, holy shit.
Frankie, you don't think he's added that up?
I wasn't joking the other one.
I said the last podcast that it keeps me up.
I didn't shooting a 95.
It's one of the first rounds of golf that has really kept me, kept me up at night and mess with my sleep.
Trent, shooting in a night.
995 of Aaron Hills would have been equivalent to like someone shooting the course record.
Yeah, I mean, he was unbelievable.
It was unbelievable.
We don't want to talk about it again.
You guys are very nice.
I love the, I wish I was with you guys when your caddy was like, oh, no, you're good.
It's in the bunker.
And you're like, man, man, I don't know if you know what that means.
He was because I got good contact on the hybrid.
Yeah, he did.
And it just landed a little short in the bunker.
He's like, no, no, you're fine.
It's just in the green side bunker.
What did you say about my mother?
Because you just insulted my entire family.
It was, you know, we don't have to rehash it, but no, we talked about it.
You know, there is a rule.
You could have to be.
Somebody hit me up.
There is a rule.
My boy, Joey hit me up.
The new rule is like, you don't have to hit it out of bunker.
You can take it out and take a two-shot penalty.
Whoa.
I'm not a coward.
But I don't know how that would have helped you.
No, it would not.
So you're in the bunker in two and you take it out and you're hitting five or four.
You hit two-shot penalty?
Yeah, I got a, I'd have to get up and down for a six, right?
Is that we're saying?
So you would have been in three, though, right?
Who would ever take that unless you really.
Right, if you just literally cannot get out of a bucket.
You were in three.
In three, drop four, hitting five.
No, it's a two-stroke penalty.
Oh, two-stroke, sorry.
Yeah.
Missed that.
I would never do that.
Anyone that would take that has already been in the bunker for too many shots,
and at that point, you're fucked if you're taking an extra two-stroke penalty.
You should have seen his first swing.
It was literally like he brought the club back,
and then it was just the biggest, I said this last time.
Biggest decal ever, the club fell from the top of his swing down in the sand and barely moved to golf ball.
How do you feel about that?
This is, I don't feel good about this.
shot. No. No, I know. We'll work on that.
Yeah. Teddy played a great round. You guys are kind of
focusing on the negative. Played a great
round. Maybe the greatest round of his entire career.
Yeah. No, it was. Definitely.
We had a guy actually, this is the last thing on the sheet, but I guess at this
point I'll just lead with it. Joseph said,
you might have already quoted and talked about this, blah, blah, blah. But since
Aaron, parenthesis, Trent Hills,
I played it like five years ago. It ate my lunch. And since he shot
a career round, what?
does he shoot now with this game at a normal golf course?
That's a good question because Aaron Hill is so difficult.
You played such a good round.
Are your expectations now next time you go out that you should be shooting like 95?
So Trent Daddy just goes to like the Beth Page blue, right?
You're going out there's no damage left or right, kind of a short golf course.
It's like 6,400 yards.
Like you think you're going out there and shooting like a 93, 94?
I mean, I'm curious myself because when I was playing that round, it felt like I caught lightning in a bottle a little bit.
I didn't really understand why I was playing so well.
We had the head down thing.
Head down will walk.
It seemed like it was a big key.
Yeah.
We had a good group.
A lot of positivity.
Yeah, tons of positivity.
So I wouldn't, in my head, if I went to, like, the course of Frankie's talking about,
the expectation wouldn't be like 94, 95.
But if I could, if I could consistently do what I did during the middle stretch of holes at Aaron Hills,
yeah, I think I could be shooting in the 90s for sure.
I honestly think if, now hanky-panky is a great caddy.
One of the best.
For sure.
You love them.
I do.
if we had a Snickers bar there for you,
leaving maybe the 15th cream,
I think it really could have helped you power to the finish.
You think I had a little bit of exhaustion?
Yeah, you were a little tired.
It looked like a little sluggish room.
You need a little sugar?
Yeah, something.
A little boost.
Could have been.
Could have been.
What do you think?
I think I felt normal the whole time.
Okay.
Yeah.
I didn't feel any sort of exhaustion.
What he needed was some of that like CBD gum that tiger is always chewing.
Yeah.
Not that we say that he's doing that he's doing that.
No one knows what kind of gum it is.
But I'm just saying, like, I would have liked to see Trent chewing on a little
something that would make him feel relaxed.
Because you said your heart was coming out.
As soon as the ball went in the bunker, you should have had CBD.
Yeah, I was thumping out of my chest.
I mean, not to really get into it.
No.
Yeah, we don't have to get into it again.
But I shot one to here at Aaron Hils and it was great.
You know, we're not going to talk about it.
Filming.
So we, I just want to throw this in real quick.
Filming?
What the fuck did you just happen?
Filming?
I thought you were going to be like, Phil Mickelson.
Yeah.
Filming.
I'm looking at the outline.
I did.
You just, you, that caught me off guard.
Let's go.
I want to hear about filming.
Well, I wanted to talk publicly about the.
the way that we're going to film some of our videos because we have a little meeting today
about our next year-long plan.
People love our 18-hole round, four-play rounds.
We play 18 holes.
We film pretty much every shot.
And they take forever to edit.
We have, I think, two or three in the back burner that we have to have edited that are
going to be coming out in the future.
But we had a little bit of a meeting today about basically how to film them.
Or maybe that was yesterday, but how to film them.
What we did at Aldera, which is me,
Frankie with iPhones.
Yeah.
Now there's been a chat,
some chatter about turning it into a very much more serious production
with like maybe three cameras,
an audio guy,
drone going,
and do all that in real time.
And I've been sort of debating in my head
if that sort of loses some of the charm of like
the vlog feeling of us like filming it ourselves
and commenting behind the camera.
And if it gets a little bit too like high production,
corporate feely will that lose some of the charm and some of our little secret sauce what do you
think about that i think that you i think you're right because at barstle um we do things that like
the common man can do you can just go out and film anything you can film a round of golf with a
phone you can go film someone eat a slice of pizza you can film i mean you can do essentially everything
that like i think that's what makes us appealing like what you're saying other things like you
can go watch a fucking highly produced golf video on like NBC or something you know what I mean like
where they're showing you know the the cliffs of whatever and you can really see all the cinematography
but I do think that maybe adding an extra like roaming camera that can get because a lot of the stuff
like a lot of our bickering back and forth is funny and I think that's I think it should be on camera
I think behind the camera loses a little bit of you know what I mean like if you're hitting a shot
and I want to chirp you I do think that like me like some or someone being in
the camera so you can see it happen is funnier than being behind the camera.
I just think it loses like, I don't know.
I would say, I don't really know.
Still be with the phone is what I mean, but I just think that we need someone else.
If you could blend it, I agree.
If it's a blend of like you get some of the behind the scenes commentary of us like walking
up to the ball with a camera and then every once in a while we film one of the shots with
some like background chirping like it is vlogging.
If you could blend that, I think that would be the best way to do it.
Because a lot of the times it feels unnatural almost too where like you have to step
way or think about filming the guy as opposed to like if i just see trent daddy in a bunker i want to
go run over there and get in his head as it was like let me get my phone make sure it's like horizontal
and i'm hitting play and i'm looking into it making sure it's like filming i'm not like i'm not like
trying to be funnier you know what i mean it's almost like i'm more worried about getting the shot
as opposed to i found that with myself yeah no i agree with you i guess my concern is um is also like
then you're relying the camera guys to do like everything in terms of like never miss a shot run from
the left side of the course to the right side, which is the same thing we have to do.
And then it, it also, to me, if there's like a couple carts and like three cameras,
it feels like we're at work doing a production.
Yeah.
Not like we're like just playing golf with the boys.
Yeah, no, I know.
It has to be a blend.
It has to be a mixture.
It has to be.
And I don't know if we do like the audio.
Like, I don't know.
There's got to be a ways that maybe the listeners know too.
Like there's got to be ways to add like audio to a phone.
cat video or something.
There's got to be,
there's got to be a solution out there
where we don't need the whole thing.
We don't need a team is what I mean.
Right.
Because I do agree with you.
Do you know what I mean?
But I also agree with like,
there needs to be more.
I know.
Somewhere in the middle.
But the thing is,
I agree that it can't be the three camera thing
because if iPhones weren't so good,
then we would need that.
But we've found that iPhones are good enough
to shoot high-deaf shit.
Yeah.
The videos of Chambers, Chambers Bay that we're editing right now.
I can't believe
that they were filmed on an iPhone.
Right.
So if the quality wasn't that good, then you would have no other option.
But I think having the phones and you keep the overhead low, I do like what Frankie's saying, where you have one roaming camera that, like, catches little interactions between us because sometimes it does take away from behind.
But I think the majority coming from the phone that the quality is so good and it makes it a little more like rough and tumble.
We're kind of, we're vlogging.
We're doing this.
I think, again, I'm going to hear it is.
We should blend it.
We should blend it like these guys said.
Do you like a Merlot?
Do you like a peanut oil?
or do you like a blend?
We should blend it.
Let's blend it.
Because at the end of the day, what are we trying to accomplish?
Like, we're trying to show off the golf course to the average everyday golfer.
And we're also trying to show what it looks like when the average everyday golfer golfs that golf course.
Yeah.
And we're trying to bring them into our for some.
Right.
Exactly.
You, the viewer, you're sitting out there.
You're watching us on YouTube and you're in your listening to our show and you're kind of like, I want to know what it's like to hang out and play around at golf with the foreplay boys.
So we're trying to bring it in.
Yeah.
So my issue is like, are we going to lose some of that?
that by having such a production, which I think everybody kind of agrees, like, somehow to a degree,
we will.
And just so people know, like, the Riggs versus videos, which you guys do a lot more of now than
you ever did before.
We all kind of, like, do those videos.
But those have always just been, whoever's in my for some, I just hand them the phone.
Yeah.
And you just say, hey, just record this.
Yeah, and they're good that way.
It's just like also, we want to bring people into our foursum.
That's, like, one group of people that we want to watch our videos.
And I think another group of people is the person that's actually going to that golf course
and wants to check it out.
Like, if you're going to Chambers Bay.
and you want to see what that golf course is about.
You shouldn't have to look any place else other than our video,
which is going to show you everything.
Like,
not only is going to show you our camaraderie and our group,
but there's going to be a sick drone shot of the fifth hole
that's going to show you from T-box to green what that thing looks like.
And that's another good point that you made in the meeting was like,
rather than,
and another little insight into these rigsversely,
it's like usually it's just in the middle of the round.
We don't really tell anybody we're going to film.
My drone is so small that it just fits in the side of my golf bag.
I tee off.
I throw the drone up while we're driving up to the fair.
way, film the hole real quick with the drone, go hit my second shot, like change drone
batteries, go film the green while we're like walking up to the green or driving up to the
green and then bring the drone down when we finish and like put out and all that.
And it's just like...
At the end of the day, you're not even paying attention to the golf.
Literally not even paying attention.
I'm like, I got to get all this footage because like we have to produce these videos
and all that.
So there's somewhere in between.
But point being...
And also when he flies that fucking drone, like at the home course in Washington, I know
my buddy, Laser, Devonte, his place in New York Island is not a big deal.
he will always say that that Riggs just flew it over his head and just held it there while Taves was hitting the biggest chip of the of the day and all of a sudden you just hear
dude this thing came over from the 12th hole and they just slowly made its way over it slowly made its way over his head and just sat over his head as he's hitting the ship and he duffed it he's like it sounded like a swarm of bees or just in my ear
exactly how he actually hit me up today and he goes did you watch uh he goes I just watched rigs's video at um at harborset
Harborside.
He's like, did you hear that fucking thing buzzing over his, over his put?
I'm like, I can hear it.
I mean, it's, it's there.
Oh, yeah.
That was an honest mistake.
Yeah.
That was an honest mistake.
But it does.
We're all tied up and he was hitting a huge chip.
I mean, I was trying to get work done film for the video so that we make.
But it is.
It's a process.
So I just thought it'd be interesting to kind of let people in on the behind the scenes of what we're trying to do.
And it is like we want people to, we want to be able to capture like every hole on the drone.
so that then when it does cut to our iPhone footage,
you can also be like,
and we're describing the shot,
you can get like a three second pan to like the aerial fucking view
and be like, oh shit, look at this hole and all that.
Yeah, if I skull fuck one over like a mound,
and I'm like, what's over there?
And then you can get to this crazy shot of what's behind it,
and it's just nastiness because that's what I always find myself in.
That's a cool shot.
So yeah, I think we all agree it's got to be a blend.
A blend.
And I think.
So good luck, Jake.
There's a huge future in what we're going to do.
I mean, oh, tons.
We got a lot of ideas.
We're very excited.
Four players becoming much more of a cohesive, full unit.
Frankie's not going to be as tied to Dave, hopefully, at some point.
I think that's very real.
You're still like today, you went to pizza reviews.
Right now.
Yeah, right now, stocks.
I think it's going to be very real.
That's exciting.
Yeah.
It's exciting time.
Frankie went from really, we invited you on one podcast because you were allowed to go into the master's and we weren't.
Yeah.
At August on Sunday with Sergio Garcia won the Masters.
We had him on, and Frankie was phenomenal.
And then, like, several months later, maybe almost a year later,
we were like, hey, we should have Frankie on today's show again.
He was great that one time.
And then after that, we were kind of like,
I think we should just have Frankie out all the time.
And now it's going to be like your full-time job.
It's crazy.
It's absolutely crazy how much for play is blowing up.
It's insane.
What a world.
It is what a world.
Speaking of blowing up, merch, we got new merch,
towels, our golf towels, the white ones.
We've been trying to whip up a white one.
golf towel for a long time.
I will say our clip-ons sell like crazy.
The size just for the boys won, the barstool one, the barstool golf one.
Those sell like crazy.
So it didn't really, for whatever reason, it just kind of slipped our mind forever to whip out like a nice, more high-class white golf towel.
The one that we got is sexy.
People respond in like, oh, my God, did they do it again?
It's the one that goes over the club.
Got the little slit in the middle.
It makes you feel a little dirty sometimes.
You know what I'm saying?
You put this towel.
all over that club.
You're like, whoa, I just did something right there.
But then you clean it off your clubs and boy, it's a nice looking towel.
It's a nice looking towel.
Yeah.
The first time I ever used it, I put it around my neck because I was getting such bad sunburn.
I just wrapped it around.
Did the job.
Multi use.
Well, it's a good towel.
It's a great town.
It's surprised.
And it's what is that?
It's that fabric.
It's like, is it micro fiber?
Microfiber?
Microfibers to have a little bit of that?
I have no idea.
You know, I don't, I may be wrong.
I may be wrong on like the fiber on it, but it's got that feel that.
that everyone knows what I'm talking about, where it grips the club better than, like, a regular, like,
sometimes when you go to wipe it down.
Yeah, and, like, sometimes these, like, shitty towels, when you, when you go to wipe your club down,
it feels like you're wiping it with, like, a fur coat.
You know, it's like that soft feeling.
You're like, I'm not getting inside the grooves.
This thing gets, this thing gets inside the grooves.
It's very nice.
You wash that thing, it's white right after the, right after the round, you're fine.
It's nice.
So go on there.
Go on to our website.
Go to Barstall.
Store.
Store.
It's store.
It's got a ton of good stuff in there.
shoes, hats, all of our Piedomol stuff.
There's a lot of good stuff on there.
Look, there's certain drinks that you just got to have out there that are just, that are delicious,
that put the right kind of nutrients, ingredients into your body when you really need them,
when you're really starving.
Oh, and they're also delicious.
We're talking about body armor, ladies and gentlemen, body armor, peach mango.
That's my favorite flavor.
That also happens to be DJ Dustin Johnson's favorite flavor, along with hardened trout, Andrew
Luck.
Body armor has one of the top golfers in the world, Dustin Johnson.
Johnson as one of their athlete investors and partners.
These guy wouldn't do this.
He just wouldn't do it unless they believed in it, unless they were like,
oh, man, oh shit, I'm drinking body armor, and it's delicious.
It's great for you.
It serves their needs as high, high, high performing athletes.
It's going to serve your needs as probably a clown who doesn't know how to play golf very well.
It doesn't know how to do anything athletically that very well.
If the best players in the world are doing it, you probably should be doing it.
You probably should be drinking body armor.
A brand is exploding DJ.
keeps a bottle on him on the course in the gym to keep him hydrated his trainer also incredibly hot on the product so again body armor when you're going to the store when you're trying to figure out what to get to drink body armor try the peach mango all their flavors are very very good peach mango is my favorite it's DJ's favorite body armor you're welcome
uh Cabot Lurgeon I'll be there in three weeks can't wait from right now we will be at Cabot links up in Nova Scotia Canada uh it's really
a trip that I put together like a year ago I started putting together with my buddies
from home my crew in St. Louis it's like my brother a couple of his best friends a bunch of
my best friends from a home and Lurch is going as well.
Cabot I said this a year ago I guess it was over a year ago that we were there at that time
was like my favorite place golf wise that I had ever been we're going to film us playing
Cabot Cliffs we're going to film every hole we're going to
to do 18 holes where that's going to be iPhone says there's not going to be a Jake or anything like
that.
So that will literally just be iPhones.
I won't be a blend.
But we will be there in three weeks.
I'm excited about it.
We're going to break it all down afterwards like we did last time, but a little bit in more detail
this time.
They're adding a part three course that's going to be, I think, open next summer.
That's a core Crenshaw, part three course above the cliffs.
That will not be open yet.
That's just another excuse for us to go back at some point, which we will.
How is Cava compared to Aaron Hills with like the playability?
of the golf course.
Because I know when we were sitting,
everything was so good at Aaron Hills
that we said that the worst part is the golf course.
Is it similar to Cabot where like everything's so perfect
and then the second you step on the T or like,
why are we not back to where it was perfect?
Cabot is a course more playable.
Cabot is significantly more playable.
Okay.
Yeah.
It's just wide open links golf for the most part.
I mean,
there's obviously a handful of holes in the cliffs and stuff.
Right.
And you can't go that way,
but like you can miss way the other way on pretty much every one of them.
Yeah.
I agree.
Yeah, there's no like,
Fescue that's just going to absolutely kill you.
The spots are obvious.
You just can't go off the cliff.
But comparing why it's like 1A, 1B of like experience.
So Cabin has a great experience.
Yeah, they're both perfect.
Yeah, they're both perfect.
Yeah, it's insane.
Yeah, I said last time that, well, I would say I think overall,
I would say Aaron and Cabot are the two best like hospitality-wise overall treatment experience
feeling that you get from the staff the best I've ever had.
Whereas like they go above and beyond.
Yeah, the staff just knows that it.
The staff.
went to the same school.
Yes.
Correct.
You know how Disney sometimes comes in?
I remember it was a big deal when Disney came in to teach the Islanders, the Coliseum staff.
They were like, oh, we're going to come in and teach the Islanders staff and, like, all the
people when you walk in.
And you could tell from year to year, it was a huge difference.
Like people are outside with little, like, guide books on where you're going to go,
where your seat is.
I'm like, man, Disney knows their shit.
So this is like Cabot.
Yeah, they go to the same school.
Yeah, it's tremendous.
The two best golf experiences I've ever had.
Frankie, when we left, their team was standing outside, waving.
Yes, that's true.
We got in the sprinter van.
From Aaron Hill?
No, from Cabot.
We get in the sprinter van.
It's three and a half hour drive from Cabot to Halifax Airport.
We load the fucking thing up.
We pull out.
And as we're like going out the exit near like the little sign, there's like four people from the marketing to like the service team.
They're standing there just waving.
It was insane.
The van has like a little loop around the parking lot.
And then you come out and you exit by the sign.
and they're all just standing there.
Big smiles on their face waving you, goodbye.
It is.
They went to the same school as the Aaron Hills team,
just the exact same school.
Big shout to our guy, Link's Gims, at Links, Jims.
What a guy.
He texted him yesterday.
He says, I sent a small little package to the office.
I knew it was going to be something good,
a little print for the studio.
He said, this is a president of mine to you guys for the studio.
And it is a picture of the sixth hole at Page Black.
Now, Frankie said before it even,
we even opened it once we saw the packaging we saw us from lynx gems links jams put up an
instagram photo uh photo for my birthday like lynx gems is an outrageous human being i love this guy
never met him uh he knows how much i love to score part of the allure is that you don't know
i don't want to meet him yeah i don't think i want to meet him either i want to meet him but i don't
want him you want him to be just lynx jim you want you think his face is like a golf course
i think yeah i feel like yeah i feel like his eyes are whatever he produces like that like all
he sees are these incredible pictures i don't want to
He's like basically air and like it just snapshots wherever he just floats.
But I said that whatever this photo is, if it is a Bethpage photo, I'm keeping it.
And we had no idea what this is going to be.
I said, I know that he sent this because he knows how much I love Bethpage.
And when we opened it up, it was the sixth hole at Bethpage.
It's at the perfect golden hour right behind the fescue overlooking this incredible, you know, down slope off the fairway and all and the green is just looking pristine.
No one's touched the bunkers.
It looks like he took this photo at night and no one's been in the bunker.
It's, it's quite a photo.
So, Link's Jim's, you know, go follow him on Instagram, Twitter, if you haven't, at Link's Jim's.
He may be the one Instagram or one account that I've sent to the most, like, he's, that's the account that I've sent to the most forward.
Yes.
Or I'm like, you got to check this guy out.
He is, I would say he would be up there with my most follow, like my most must follow.
Yes.
on Instagram or Twitter.
Yeah.
Like if I really,
if I went through and deleted everyone based on like quality of following them,
I think he would finish in like my top 10.
Dude, Trent has these pictures up.
The pictures are outrageous.
Also,
you just want to look at something beautiful and pristine.
You just go to his account and just scroll right through.
Dude,
I sent,
each one of them.
Little blurbs.
I sent my buddy Kyle his,
his Instagram.
And two weeks later,
Kyle had his picture hanging above his bed.
Blown up.
That's that right?
I have his calendar.
His calendar's great.
I get the calendar too.
He does a holiday calendar.
He gives all the money away.
What a hero.
Link's gems.
What a legend.
He will be photographing the Barstall Classic Championship.
I don't know if I said this on the show or not, but he has agreed to come to photo to shoot the Barstall Classic Championship, Liberty National.
October 15th, he's going to be there.
He'll be taking all kinds of shots of the golfers, of the golf course, of the scene, of the ceremonies, all that good stuff.
We watched Tiger Woods last night.
win at eastlake just turn on our TV
man it was
watching it again last night
the fist pump he gives Roger Mulpe
after he finishes
he's walking off 18 he's getting ready to go up
into like the scoring area and kind of like
you know disappear and go see the play and he
just Roger Maltby stands there and just puts
his fist out and Tiger just like punches
his fist as like a fuck yeah like
let's go with Roger
Mulpy the on course reporter
it got me so fired up I'm glad
he ain't here I'm glad that he's just
done just take the time off
we need to get back to that form
back to that healthiness all that good stuff
so fun to watch if you
go look at the highlights you get a little bit of
you know you might get some chills
speaking of barcel classic we just talked about second
no granite links on Monday
we had our first major fuck up of the barcel
classic which was that the handicaps were just
all wrong wrong in what way
so we had it was a spreadsheet issue
apparently one of our
behind the scenes guys one of our business guys
he's been handling all this
does a great job juggles a lot of different things outweigh even outside of the
mostly outside of the barceles classic but he was kind of my main point man for the barso
classic for a while and he um he just i guess it was like a pivot table on a spreadsheet
that he likes to play with and just messed it up and got like everything out of sync so even though
we had pulled all the handicaps properly like plugging them into the spreadsheet had been
done incorrectly so like 70 or 80 percent of the fields handicaps were just like the wrong
number.
Like pulled from the wrong cell of a spreadsheet.
And so we get there, a couple things with the Granite Links one.
And the best part is like 95% of the feedback has been like best event I've ever played
and awesome.
So like the actual golfer for the most part, like didn't care.
They all had a great time.
It was a lot of fun, all that good stuff.
But as the commissioner, you know, I arrive.
I always get there like two or three hours early.
We're doing the whole setup.
This was also one where like there was an event at Granite before ours.
ours is a 130 p.m. shotgun.
So a whole event before ours,
our team has to, like, rush to set up.
They don't want to step on the toes of the event prior,
but also, like, they don't care because we're going to set up for the Barso
Classic.
So that was going on.
And the golfers all arrived.
They arrived like a couple hours early because this afternoon shotgun.
People were excited.
And right away, people, you know, I noticed, like,
and you get this with any golf tournament you ever put on.
You get handicapped issues.
You know, you get 10 or 15 handicap issues out of 110 people.
Not a problem.
Man, I'm talking within,
like the first fucking 10, 15 people I see are like, hey, just commissioner coming up and I
just have an issue with my handicap.
I'm like, all right, just go see the head pro and take care.
Well, then the masses start to arrive all at registration time at noon.
And it's like every two seconds, a new person's coming up.
Hey, my scorecards are.
And I'm like, oh, no.
Like, what are we doing?
So it became a scene.
The head pros down in the pro shop.
Our guy who is in charge of the spreadsheet is on vacation for two weeks in Europe.
So I'm texting like, hey, what?
are we supposed to tell people he's like oh yeah we always have a couple handicapped issues i'm like i think
think it's bigger than that like there's a problem he's like what is it like okay if it's a few more
like not a big deal i'm like i don't think you get it like this is a fucking issue like all the handicaps
are wrong he's like that just can't be right i was like i think it's right and so we're having a battle
i'm supposed to be there like you know how it is like mingling with everybody welcome the tournament
like if they want to take pictures they want to shoot the shit they want to hear about fucking
and hill like whatever it is like they just want and instead it's like i'm fucking rattle trying to control the
handicaps the granite staff is like rattled because they're like they printed up all the cards all the cards are
wrong they're like you guys are a clown show like it was such a scene oh my goodness such a scene it's a mess it's a mess
it was turning back to granite too that's like our home track when we lived in boston i was a member there for
four years i love that place head pro's an absolute beauty clancy love that these guys like you knew
like personally i knew everybody yeah i mean the head pro used to like knock on my window and when i was
sleep in my car from the night before.
It's because we get hammered up there.
I wouldn't want to drive home.
I have it's 7 a m.
T time.
Like he's our,
he's our guy.
And he came up about a half hour
after registration open and he just goes,
this is bad guys.
This is really bad.
And I was just like,
meanwhile,
there's a hundred people all standing around me
like trying to register for the turn.
It was a fucking shit show.
When I'm on the phone with people,
we're trying to get them all right.
What are we going to do?
Are we going to have a live leader board?
How many strokes do I get?
How do I know?
Like,
what holes I stroke on what I don't
I'm like that's a good question because your handicapped
are all fucking wrong it's a great question it was
such a scene we ended up
our guy went back through
and just looked up every single person's
gen number because we require it when you register
looked up every single one on vacation
this guy he was digging through his Excel sheet
no he looked them up on the internet
he had to go through like gin and I got looked them all up
to get him right
and then about an hour after
everybody teed off.
We, they, you know, we, we, we sent this document to the head pro, our boy Clancy,
who then reprinted every single scorecard.
Then we had to run all the scorecards out to people.
Then they had to, like, swap their scorecards that they were currently doing with the new one.
Oh, man.
Now, again, 90% of this is behind the scenes that the golfer doesn't even see.
Yeah.
Because we mostly just tell them, hey, we understand we have an issue.
Just write down your gross scores.
We're going to handle it.
We'll get new cards out to you in a little bit.
They're like, great.
I'm going to go have a drink.
Like, not a problem.
To us, it was fucking chaos.
And on top of that.
So we have that going on.
We had the later start because it's 130.
And then right at the peak of me talking with Clancy, the head pro and like Daniela and our other guy trying to figure out, one of our folding tables at registration just collapsed.
In that moment, it was just like, what the fuck is going on?
It was total and utter chaos.
Then about an hour and a half in.
We had a rain delay.
So rain delay comes for two hours.
We had a 130 shotgun start to begin with.
So now it's like five across.
clock, sunsets at like 7.30 and people still have to play, you know, 70 or 65 percent of their
holes in a slow event to begin with. We ended up having a couple guys came in, you know, like,
they came by the putting contest and it was like borderline too dark to play. And I was like,
all right, you guys got one hole left. Like, yeah, we got two holes left. I was like, oh, man.
But I don't know what you can do because you have to like, you have to qualify and go to
liberty so most people were like no it's totally fine like we played in the dark all time or or other
people finished a little quicker and this and that but i will say two guys came up to me two different
teams came up to me and said hey commission i don't want to i don't want to bitch at all but i kind of
feel like we got fucked i was like well all right what happened and he's like well our last two holes
we played there were no flags in the pins and i was like what the fuck are you talking about
he's like yeah we're standing out there we're trying to we can't we had no idea where the pin was
on the green because there's no flag so we just couldn't see it positive they just picked him up and
And so I went and I was like, that was definitely not our people, right?
Like, there's no way our fucking people would do.
I wouldn't allow that.
And like, they're not stupid.
And I think what happened was, and a couple of the members at Granta were telling me this, I can't confirm it, but I don't know what else could have happened was like the maintenance guy or the super or somebody.
Like, that's their last thing at the end of the day.
And they were like, yeah, it's dark.
I'm fucking going home and took the flags out.
So the guys were like, you know, again, commission.
Like, I don't want to bitch, but like, we're kind of right on the borderline.
And like, and I was like, look, there's nothing I can do about your score.
you kind of might have got fucked.
I'm really sorry, but that's like bullshit.
So bottom line, we will never have another event that starts in the afternoon like that.
Right.
That was a complete disaster.
Yep.
So look, this is a commissioner.
This is just what you deal with.
You deal with some issues out there.
It was mostly fantastic.
Most of the feedback has been really, really good.
Chicago was awesome, as we all talked about it.
But there were a couple issues at Granite Lakes.
What you said?
So imagine playing the last two holes in the dark, and there's just no.
There's no.
You can't see where the pin is.
No, I can't.
It's more difficult for sure.
Yeah.
You want pins.
You definitely want pins.
You have pins.
They just had no flag to see.
Oh, they had no flags on.
There's no flags on the pin.
The flags were taken out of the pins.
I see what you were saying.
Yeah.
So they just couldn't see.
They had no idea.
It's just not the way you're supposed to play golf.
No, it's really not.
You have to be able to see it.
For all the people for this to happen to, I can't imagine this happened to you.
This is insane.
I just can't, when that table collapsed, I just don't, I don't know what was going on
in your head, but I know that, like, possible years in jail could have been a result
of what you were probably thinking.
At one point, I called our guy and I said on the phone,
what the fuck is happening and how are we fixing it?
But we got through it.
People had a good time.
We got through it.
The port noise were there.
Dave's parents.
How did they do?
It was there.
They had a great time.
They just had a great time.
This is mom who played with her friend.
I don't know exactly what they finished up at.
I'm not sure.
But anyways, it was fun.
Granite Link's great.
It's a really beautiful spot.
You know, we had great weather outside the two-hour rain delay.
The rest of it was like, actually, once the rain came, it cooled off.
Love when it cools off after a nice rainstorm.
There's a rainbow.
Lovely.
It was nice.
Love a good rainbow.
Only one underwear brand that we rock.
Cleaned out all the drawers.
They're all gone.
Clean.
Clear.
Gone.
Because Tommy John.
It's the only thing we need.
It's the only thing that really anyone needs in life is a good pair of Tommy Johns.
Totally right.
Boy, I mean, I just got another shipment of them.
I had a birthday recently.
It was last week on August 13th.
It was August 13th.
And, you know, my parents, you know, they came over to the city.
And in this big bag of, like, clothes and T-shirts, we're just more Tommy Johns.
I mean, they know that they're a great sponsor for us.
And they still just sent, they just went out and bought me Tommy Johns because they know how much I love them.
That's how much that this company has really changed our lives.
Is that, like, people in our lives are now buying them for us.
Over seven million.
That's the number of pairs of Tommy John underwear.
They've sold with 96% of their company.
customers rating them with four stars or greater.
It's hard to get a high rating as an underwear company.
It just is.
People bitch about their underwear all the time.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
Not with Tommy John.
Over 96% of 7 million pairs sold.
Give a four star rating or greater.
With Tommy John's revolutionary underwear, the legs never ride up.
The waistband never rolls down.
You go to Tommyjohn.com slash four.
You're going to get 20% off your first order.
We are hooking you up.
You are going to want to.
cash in on this trust me trust us trust birthday betch frankie who's been on a birthday bender for a month
that's all he cares about is his birthday and what did they get him for his birthday to tommy john
dot com slash four right now that's tommyjohn slash four 20% off your first order pjutor stole our
question so at the end of the last show we did a whole i think it was frankie you came up with
that question yeah you were like well the course you know if what would you have to start at the off that
to feel comfortable that you could win the tournament.
It is a good hypothetical.
It's a crazy thing that they're doing, crazy format.
Like they're going to start a guy up with 10 under and the next guy is 8 under.
So it's like, what would I need?
What kind of head start would I need?
If this is like a horse race, like how much further around do I have to start the track before that fucking, right?
And PGA tour essentially asks the same exact question to Brooks Kepka.
And Brooks got wrong.
Way off, way off.
But that's pretty tough, like on the spot to do math.
that because he's like, all right, well, the average guy is a 15 handigast. He's got to put himself
in the average handicap of a 15 golfer. He doesn't even know what that feels like. Really
tough. Big time. So he was way wrong. I mean, his answer was, okay, so the average guy's a 15
and he probably needs 75 shots, way wrong because if you think the average, even if you are,
the average handicap is a 15, which I think it's higher. I think it's like 18 or something
like that. But if it is 15, you know, that guy's not going to break 90 once, not even close at East
Eastlake playing in the tournament. So that's, you know, if you're going 90 down to 70,
Let's say Brooks Kepka shoots 70 each round
and shoots like even par, which he would play better than that.
But let's say he does that.
That's 20 shots around right there, difference.
And that's, you're at 80 already.
And that guy's going to shoot way higher than 90.
And Brooks Kepka's going to shoot lower overall than 70 each round.
Yeah, I think his math was 15 a day, 15 a day.
15 a day.
That gets you to 60, and Brooks is going to shoot 15 under.
And then so he'll need 75, and that'll be about even.
But he's way off with a 50 handcapper, only shooting fucking 87.
I mean, 87 would be the best ball he's ever played.
Yeah, at Eastlake in the Tour Championship.
I mean, that 15th hole, that par three across water, he just can't even play the hole.
Nope.
There ain't like a regular golfer can't play that hole.
He would just never be in the hole.
No, he would miss it every time.
Like that guy at...
Like that guy at 17 at Sawgrass who shot like an 88 on 17.
Exactly.
Where he's like, no, I saw a golf, I just can't get it on that island.
And that's reachable.
This one's barely reachable for your average golf.
like 140.
Yeah,
exactly.
This one's like $1.90.
It does not compute.
You can't get high enough to win.
Holes impossible.
Phil Michaelson's body.
I mean, he's kind of just posted
his picture.
His sister posted a picture day.
And he just looks completely jack.
He looks great.
I don't understand.
When this happened, we see him in golf clothes and he looks
not like he looks in the picture.
He went on that fast recently.
You guys remember that?
Oh, yeah.
He lost like 11 pounds in like three days or something.
So he's clearly got this in his mind that he can,
and the Cavs thing has been a running storyline for a while now.
But I did not expect I would ever see Phil Mickelson to look this good in a picture.
What do we think about Phil Mickelson on this little run he's on right now?
I said this on the rundown yesterday with KFC.
I mean, he's doing a whole buffet bits recently with the fireside chat.
Ever since he really started mucking it up on social media,
I know he's always been goofy.
He's done the finger stuff and the thumb stuff.
Like this is a little too much.
Like his room went on fire.
He almost missed his tea time.
That's true.
Good point.
Like he's losing all this weight.
He's doing the fireside chat with Tiger on the iPad and the candles.
He's doing all the videos dropping bombs and cute little baby cats.
Like chirping,
you know,
going to the mask.
Oh, yeah.
He's doing a whole buffet of bits right now.
Like, where are we standing on Phil Mickelson right now?
You know, I guess like we having in the last couple of years been around guys a good amount
have heard that Phil is a weird fucking guy.
So to me, this is almost more on brand that he's a weird guy.
Like, because I, I've kind of,
I've always thought Phil is is more like weird and goofy than he is like this super calculated
guy that he like how he comes off in the in the pressers all the time like I do think that's
that's like not necessarily really him in those pressers because he is a little bit like calculated
right I think he's more just on the side he's just kind of like goofy and weird about stuff and
I think that's what he's putting out and you're seeing more what he's really like so much it's so
much.
Like today, it was like, when I saw that picture today, I'm like, man, I almost think
that, like, his room didn't go on fire, like to this point where I'm thinking, like,
this guy's just really pulling one on all of us.
This made him not believable to you this photo.
Seeing him out there, like, it's bizarre.
He's bizarre.
It was actually a little weird to look at, right?
It looks like Michael Fox.
He looks ready to perform at the Olympics.
Totally.
His body's super long.
Yes, I agree with that.
His upper body's super long.
I actually loved Riggs's tweet today when he was like, yeah, I guess so the golf
clothes add an extra 30 pounds.
Right, because we've been watching him play golf and he looks the same.
It looks the same.
But then he takes his shirt off and he's jacked.
Looks like for skinny.
Yeah, he's skinny.
He's skinny.
I guess like I shouldn't have said that he's like, cut or he's cut.
But he's just like definition there.
Totally.
He's just like skinny.
Yeah.
He feels not a skinny person.
He's just a dumpy fat guy.
It's a blend between emaciated and jacked is what it looks like.
He looks weird.
Yeah, he does.
He looks bizarre.
I don't like it.
I don't like the way.
I don't like the way.
standing.
I like the way he's kind of like the way he's blocking the sun with his eyes.
You know, well, think about, I mean, there's plenty of case studies of this just not work out.
Like Duff Daddy.
You would think about when Duff went from like the, he was great.
The fat, like kind of funny fat guy who's winning majors and like one of the better players in the world.
Then he got like, remember how much weight he lost and how different he looked?
And then his game kind of went to shit.
Who's the actor that I'm thinking there of?
Jonah Hill.
Jonah Hill did the whole thing.
Like he's supposed to be like a fat, a funny guy.
and then he kind of got in way better shape
and he kind of hell used to be so funny
he was so funny in grandma's boy so funny
he's just he was such a funny
fat actor and now he's just
I mean now he's winning like academy awards and stuff
yeah cool too I guess but you can't be
as funny as he was when you're in good shape
he was even good of a wallshy he was in between
yeah yes
Phil's response was love you sis such a fun day seeing everyone
FYI those weird bumps on the side of my stomach
we've never seen before
Doc called them oblique said it's nothing the word
about. I like that. I think that's very
funny. That's funny. It's funny. It's weird.
Yeah. Everything seems to be moving in the right
direction and like Phil is being more open on social media.
But I'm weirded out by it a little bit.
He's also probably going through like a midlife crisis.
Definitely. You know, I mean, a guy who's worth
hundreds of millions or whatever Phil's worth is a lot to go through
things where he's like, I'm getting old and I'm getting out of shape and I want to
look hot and sexy and not as good at golf.
Yeah, the whole thing. Totally.
Good point. He's about to turn.
We talked about this.
That's crazy.
Next June.
We planted our flag in the Tiger Woods was going to win another major, and he did.
He won.
He's a master's champion.
He's a current master's champion.
Is Phil Michaelson ever going to win another major?
Another major?
Yep.
No chance.
No chance.
I don't.
Anything's possible after seeing this picture.
Anything's on the table with him.
You can't see him, like, staying in the mix at Augusta one more year and like maybe next year.
Staying in the mix.
And then he just has a miracle fill run.
Let me say that.
I can see one.
I'm thinking about it.
I'm now, and I'm going to explain why.
I'm now changing it to, yes, Phil will win another major.
Really?
Yes.
From not a chance to, so what just happening in your brain?
I would take even money on that.
I got to be honest with you, this was a calculation of as long as we'll be doing this show,
it's very unlikely that you guys get like a, ha, you were wrong.
Phil's never going to win a major again moment.
Whereas if I claim that he will and somehow in the next four or five years he wins one,
I'll have this clip where I said he would win.
All right.
I respect the fuck out of that.
I like that move.
Do you know what I mean?
I don't think it's genuine because it's not.
No, it's not.
It's just a bigger win.
Like,
the win for us is like,
oh-hum,
because it's not going to happen.
Now we're just going to hold on to that.
You just opened up about what you just said,
and I'm going to save that clip and just respond.
Exactly.
Like,
you're just saying it because you want to scream for the hillbops.
You don't think Phil can win another major.
I just said it.
Phil Miguelzim will win another major?
This is like the time Smitty on radio was like,
is Dave going to be.
He's tough to be compared to Smith.
on national radio was like, is Dave going to be at work tomorrow?
Because I'm thinking about not coming.
And we were like, you just said that on radio.
Yeah.
So no matter if he comes or not, we all now know that you're thinking about it.
You're going to clip like, I want him to win.
I only said that he came.
You're going to clip 14 seconds of that clip and we're going to clip 32 seconds of it.
And that's going to be the difference.
I'm the only clip that he's been.
I'm saying, I believe Phil McEllson will win another major.
You don't, though.
Yeah.
It's kind of a gutless claim.
That's just what it is.
Let's be real here, though.
I mean, I do think I.
I'm being genuine. I think that he may find himself.
So it's a yes or no?
I say yes.
Trent?
I think it's going to be.
Yes.
I think it's going to be a miracle.
Now you guys all came over to my side.
No, no, no.
I'm sitting on the nose side.
I'm a no.
He does not win another major.
Okay.
All right.
After seeing that picture, he could.
That picture doesn't help him at all.
You're right.
It doesn't.
I think he needs to go back to like his rotun kind of happy body self.
Yeah.
No, you're right.
That's kind of what Riggs was saying, where you're like he's better when he's
better when he's fat.
You kind of looked like a young,
a young Phil Mickelson.
Dude,
everybody's comparing me to everybody.
Bull Haasler.
You got his card back,
by the way, got it right back.
Shout out.
If they have a tall,
thicker body,
and that's you.
You know, it's been funny since the last episode
is people have been sending me
pictures of people
who consider themselves houses
in other pictures with their friends.
Like, I'm the guy on the right,
and it's clearly someone who's like a
a lurch-like person,
and they're just way bigger than all their friends.
I will say Lurch is named Lurch for a reason.
He's a big lurchy fellow.
But it is magnified in pictures with him.
And it is, I mean, there are some of them.
Remember the one from Cabot last year?
We should put this one up there where I think it was office manager Brett who you make him look like a P.
Yeah.
He looks like a six year old.
And he said, he's like, what is wrong with that picture?
He's like I look like the smallest person in the world.
I was like, well, you're standing next to Lurch.
He's just a big freak.
That's how I felt.
dead air on the 18th green we took a picture
and I, like I said, I'm a bigger guy
and I look like nothing next thing. I think it's
because I'm wide too. Yeah, you're just everything.
Just a big body. You're everything.
You know, yeah, like these old time pictures
of Phil walking the fairways of the young
tiger. I guess you're talking about visor. He's a visor guy.
It's the visor, it's the
round face.
True. Boy, do you look like a young Phil Milksson?
Not lefty though. No.
Not lefty.
Phil's a weirdo too. Look at him. Look at that
outfit. He's always dressed.
He wears black pinstripe.
In this picture, he's wearing a beige long-sleeve college shirt that just has a Ford.
Is he just smiling a tiger, too?
Yeah.
That was, that was peak fill of the Ford.
Oh, yeah.
Are you kidding me?
That was when he collapsed at Wingfoot.
That was after he had won a couple majors.
Tiger is so good.
That may be the best Tiger of Woods has ever loved.
Whoever wants to search a type into Google Young Phil Mickelson.
There's a picture of him with a beige long-sleeve Ford shirt on,
and then Tiger Woods is walking to the left of him with his Scotty in hand.
And he's smiling.
The hair is still there.
is incredible.
He's got no hat on.
That's that same Scott.
He waved right in front of our face.
He's filling out his mock neck.
Oh, that's peak tiger.
I mean, that's the peak two of them.
This is, this is their peak careers.
That's just as good as it gets.
Look at those boys.
I watched the tiger video.
Phil's got an undershirt in that, too.
He must be so hot.
Did you guys watch the tiger video on like golf TV?
What was it?
I haven't watched it yet.
You haven't watched it?
Pretty good.
I mean, anytime you get to see Tiger Woods on the screen.
It's great.
It's exciting, isn't it?
He just talks about how he warms up, and I mean,
I watched it twice.
What'd you learn?
What'd you learn?
That he, you know, he does the nine box grid where he hits nine different shots every single time.
And essentially for me, what I learned is that Tiger Woods does most of his preparation when he has a chance to work out as opposed to like hitting it like hitting the course a lot.
So like he says that when he shows up to a golf course, he's ready to compete.
Like he doesn't need Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, to like play the course.
He's ready to compete once he steps on that tee.
regardless because he did the preparation the week leading up and he's done the preparation since he was
like born that's that's essentially what i learned i love that it's amazing he's like he's like if
i need those couple rounds to like go around the golf course like i'm not ready like i want
i could i learned that tygo woods could step up on thursday and win a golf tournament when you said
i've been preparing for this tournament my whole life yeah just i got chills that i know i don't
even know if he said that i think i could trade my
but uh words in his mouth but it's something he would say yeah it's all about
preparation and and he also gets into like I don't get to practice as much as I used to and I think
the way he said that really highlighted the fact that this guy fucking used to wake up and then go
to sleep and in between that he just practice golf like now he's like I only get to practice
when I drop my kids off so he's like I drop my kid off at school I go and hit the range and I pick
him up and then it's over it's soccer time dad time that's it and you're like well that's kind
of like the whole day correct that he gets to hit balls and to me I'm like you know the kids
are still going to like can we just win one more fucking
major here?
Like, can we stop?
What I'm saying is, like, the kid, like,
he's almost like he has all day to practice.
I mean, the kids, if they go to school at fucking 8 a.m.
and he picks him up at three, like, I think
I need more. I need, I need more practice.
No, I know, but, like, his example of, like,
I thought you're going to say, I thought you're going to say he's like,
I only get 45 minutes a day to practice.
No, no, no, no.
From when the kids go to school, I mean, that's literally,
they had a full day of school that he had to practice.
That's true.
That's true.
I think compared to what he used to do.
I think now it's maybe five hours, and back then it was
15 hours like every single day.
24 out. Just no sleep.
They previewed the next episode and it's all about driving.
And he, at the very end, he drills one.
And he just goes, I tagged it and laughs.
And then the camera just shuts off.
That's great.
I mean, I'm like, we're just going to cancel this show.
I'm going to walk it right here.

Roy McElroy on Slow Play.
So Rory, actually we'll start with the FedEx copy.
He had a bunch of comments, Rory, B and Rory.
He's one of the most outspoken guys in the game.
That's why we love Rory.
It's Trent's favorite player, Rory McElroy.
Rory McElroy.
Yeah, that's true.
You love this guy.
I do love this guy.
I think everybody in his room loves this guy.
Or than ZJ?
Yeah.
Okay.
He looked at me with some disgust at the Pebble Beach.
No, I think you're taking that the wrong way.
I think he was just sort of in the zone.
Didn't you kind of saw you at the last second.
I was like, Rory, you thought that about Spath, too.
You thought he didn't love.
Trent thought that.
I was confident.
Trent's like he hates us.
And I just went, Jordan.
And he's like, he came over.
He's like, I love y'all stuff.
Love y'all stuff.
I read that one wrong.
Love y'all.
As I was screaming, Jordan, Trent goes, he hates us.
He hates us.
He hates us.
He hates us.
Yeah.
Because you don't know.
Natural.
No, you don't know.
Because we are living in, before that, we're living in a place of we just don't know.
Yep.
Which is more comfortable than if someone hates it.
Remember when Jordan Smith was looking us in the eyes?
I know we looked at Tiger Woods in the eyes and he talked to us.
But remember when Jordan Spieth was, that was our first like, oh, shit.
Like, we're speaking to Jordan Speeth moment.
He's a handsome guy.
He has like a mesmerizing look when he looks you in the eyes.
He's kind of got that little, just a little smile.
Yeah, like that little southern like smiles, southern smirk to him.
Yeah.
You're like, oh, man.
Hey, Jordan.
Jordan's got to figure it out on the golf course, but until then he's got a great smile.
Some guy roasted Jordan Speeth on the radio today.
He did.
Call then he goes, hey, think you'll be able to get Jordan Speed on the podcast?
Now he's got those free time in his hands.
Whoa.
It was like, well, he's missing one third of it.
Like next week, he's just in the same place everybody else is.
He'll miss the president's, he'll miss the president's coat.
Yeah, they can invite him to dinner, remember?
It's true
The other part of the picture
He was talking to his uncle
He was talking to his uncle
Love his uncle
Yeah he was
He was texting his uncle
Who was at the Barstall Classic
What was that a comfortable moment
Remember that?
Yeah
Why
Well no
We're talking about the time
That I said that he missed a picture
Because he was talking to his uncle
And you're like
Well no he missed a picture
Because he just didn't golf well
Yeah
It was a little bit
It was like a little bit
It was a little bit
It was a little bit
Good times.
Good times in this room.
No, it was a bit.
I feel like we're having the same awkward moment.
No, I know, which I'm living.
Trent and I are just enjoying the moment.
It's so funny, man.
The fact that we're able to recreate, that is a beautiful thing.
It's insane.
What are we talking about?
Roy.
Yeah, Roy.
Roy.
His friend's favorite player.
Rory on the FedEx Cup.
So he essentially was kind of shitting on it.
He says, who knows what the winner was at the mat.
Or who knows money-wise what the winner wins at the Masters?
I don't know because that's not.
what it's about.
If the FedEx Cup wants to create a legacy,
it lasts longer.
It doesn't need to be about the money.
It should be about the prestige of winning an event that you'll be remembered for.
Now,
the obvious response to this is easy for you to say when you are making hundreds of millions
a dollar.
Yeah.
That's the big part of it.
He even said today for the comments where he was like,
it's so great having tons of money, basically.
He's like, it's awesome having a bunch of money because I can just spread it around
to my friends and family.
He's like when you don't have to worry about money, it's the best thing in the world.
God, I could imagine.
I could imagine.
When we were walking out leaving Aaron Hills, and Frankie was like, man, it would be just great to just have just a pot of money, just a big bag of money.
Yeah.
It would.
It would be amazing.
So many things just fall out of the way side in terms of stress.
And that's what Roy was saying.
Like, again, he's so candid that, like, most people aren't going to say that because it's going to come off kind of in the way that I'm like saying it where it's like, I just have a ton of money.
It's awesome.
But that's basically what he said.
and they get to spread it around.
And there's a difference between having no stress to make your money and stress to make your money.
There's like stock traders out there and Wall Street guys that like have to grind.
And yes, they end up with a ton of money that they can spend.
But like their life is like a living hell that whole entire way up.
Like Rory Macro has played golf his entire life and it's come pretty fucking easy to him to the point where like naturally I mean.
Like, you know, you have got a lot of talent.
He has a lot of ton of talent.
And like hitting a golf ball is easier for him than most people in the world.
If you're outside at the range of like medalists or something, you're not grind.
on like the fucking York Stock Exchange.
Right.
Yeah.
I mean,
when you have a sponsorship from Nike for whatever,
$100 million dollars,
it makes everything pretty great.
And like one day,
your grandkids are going to be like,
oh my gosh.
We're good.
Oh, my gosh.
One day, like he's going to hit a point where he just doesn't want to golf anymore
and that's fine.
Like, he's just whatever.
It could be yesterday.
Right.
It's over.
It doesn't matter.
Who cares?
Yeah.
You golfed for a living.
Really, really well.
Would you rather be Rory or Tiger?
Rory.
Rory.
As a person?
Yeah.
Like if you have to take everything like food.
Just because the time.
From the day they were born.
Can't buy the time back.
From the day they were born.
No,
I just think Rory is a happier person.
Me too.
Yeah.
I don't think Tigers.
We all read that book.
Totally.
Tigers never struck me as a particularly like happy person.
No.
Whereas I think Rory kind of like gets it as normal and it's like a pretty happy.
I think Roy could stop playing golf today and he'd be fine.
Like he would be okay with that.
Yeah.
Totally.
I agree with that.
I think, yeah.
I think we're,
I mean,
I don't know about Lurch,
but I'm Rory as well.
Because I'm a big guy that doesn't care about legacies.
I think that I'm going to be dead.
I don't really care.
Right?
So, like, the fact of being the best golfer of all time or something like that,
some people may say, I want to be Tiger because I'm going to be remembered and like
Rory May and the animals of time or whatever not be remembered as much as a guy like Tiger.
But to me, that doesn't matter one bit.
And it just seems it's been uncomfortable to be tired.
Not one bit?
No, it doesn't.
What?
I don't know.
We have this huge talk about how life doesn't matter.
the other day.
Yeah.
And we're all going to die.
Yeah, we're all going to die.
Yep.
So it doesn't matter.
Fact.
So.
Yeah,
no,
I just feel like tigers.
I'm going to fucking die.
That's scary to think about it.
I will die.
100%.
We all will.
Yeah,
you're going to die too.
You're going to die too.
You're going to die.
Right.
Let's not waste time just talking about death.
Right.
I mean,
let's try to enjoy the moment.
For sure.
Okay.
Life could be a mistake.
Jesus.
No.
You know,
I'm just coming off of this.
We were talking about in the office the other day.
This is what we talk about at Barcel HQ.
And then Jared came in and said,
well, if the sun doesn't explode before this all happens.
He always does that.
That's his hit.
He always plays the hits.
You know,
he said the sun will explode and no one will know who Tiger Woods was at some point
because the earth won't be here anymore.
And that's the whole thing.
That really makes it feel like it's pointless to discuss it.
Which is stupid because we discuss this shit for a living.
Correct.
True.
I think, like, but legacy, like,
you can argue that that's what's stupid.
Like, arguing the legacy doesn't matter.
is the same thing to me as arguing nothing matters.
Like everything matters like...
Well, no, the only reason you have to like buy into stuff.
It's the same thing we say about like building a buddies,
like a repeatable buddy's golf trip is like it only works if everybody buys into it
and acts like it's the masters and like it matters even though it doesn't.
I understand what you're saying.
And maybe I said the wrong thing with legacies because like there are certain parts of like
that that I do care about like Borrellys has been around for 65 years.
Like I'm like, I cherish that like idea of like bringing it on even though like I'm not working
there anymore.
I know everyone says that like I'm stopping that.
It's just hard of, you know, like, yeah, I kind of walked her into that one.
Well, your actions don't back up kind of what you're doing.
Well, no, I do cherish it.
It's just a tougher life and the whole thing and making pizzas with Laredo and the whole thing.
It's like, too much.
But number two is that like, if I'm just going to choose between Rory and Tiger,
the only reason I brought that up is like Rory is a happier person,
but I could see how someone would say I want to be, like when I die,
I want to be known as the best golfer of all time.
To me, that adds no weight as opposed to having a happier life to get there.
I agree with that.
I agree with you that I would.
I would take that over the other.
But I do think it would, like, it would be so different to be in that spot.
I think it would probably be very frustrating to be Rory at times and be like, man, I possess all of this skill and star power.
And, and I'm, Tiger won fucking, is won 15 majors and 80, you know, 81 events.
And here I am, you know, I've only got four.
And it's like, what's the difference?
It's like, why can't I get to that?
Like, I feel like that would drop because you're so close.
And he's been on four for a while.
Since what, 2014?
It's been a while now.
So there are the little things like that they're going to eat at you for sure.
And the grand scheme of things, I think Roy's definitely a happier person.
But the small little hurdles like that one, I think that kills him.
And you've got to go through that ugly phase that Rory went through.
Correct.
Yeah.
That's a tough one.
Yeah.
He never had that.
Oh, no, no.
See, I said a phase.
No, I know.
I know what you're sorry.
Rory is a sexy human being now.
He is great now.
He's a very good-looking male.
But there was a time where he was...
He was hideous.
I couldn't even look at him.
Big time.
There's some pictures out there
that you can't even look at.
There are people who go...
That's the noise you make
when you look at an old picture of Rory.
I forget who said it,
but there's somebody who said that
the reason he now looks as good as he does
is because he looks back on himself back then
and is like, I need to like
get this image going a little bit better than it is.
Obviously he can-Hory won tournaments, though.
What's that?
Ugly Roy won tournament.
2014, when he won two majors, he was jacked and looking good.
Yeah, he was pretty good.
Yeah, he was finally.
No, no, he was jacked.
I'm talking like 16-year-old.
No, I remember.
I remember.
There's one picture that I'm thinking of in my mind of Roy that is just hilarious.
I don't know if I got it up on this show before.
He's got like a start-up.
That Oakley, like, white and blue shirt on or something like that.
Look at this fucking thing.
Like, he just looked insane.
How did he, that's almost like it's not the same person.
It looks like he was wearing a fucking Halloween mask.
What's he doing there?
A Halloween mask, he says.
So, yeah, ultimately, Roy over Tiger.
Roy over Tiger, but I do think being known as the greatest golfer of all time,
I think about sick that would be.
I can't even go to her.
I don't know if Roy can't, but Tiger can't live regular life.
Totally.
Can't go to a restaurant.
He can only go to, like, the Tiger Woods restaurant.
And those are the many reasons that I would weigh around him to be Roy McRoy.
You think how, like, in a normal,
in just an average U.S. city,
how big of a problem is it for Rory to walk around?
I think it's probably a ton of pictures
once like one person notices them.
Like, oh, who's that?
And then like a bunch of guys come over,
a bunch of girls that like are clinging.
Because I don't know, you think like the average like...
I think it's a massive problem.
You think the average...
Yeah, I think it becomes a problem,
but do you think like the average person walking out of New York City Street
knows exactly what Rory and McRoy looks like?
Like the average like...
I mean, depends what he's wearing.
Do you think Ria and Fran?
here at Barclay HQ, like if they're walking in the street
and know who Rory MacRoy is?
No.
You don't think so?
Nope.
Neither do I.
I think it's easier than you think.
What do you mean?
For him.
For him to walk through the same.
I agree.
Yeah.
Now, New York's different.
This is like a, like he would be noticed because there's so many people here and then
it would become a scene.
But if he's just walking through like downtown St. Louis tomorrow, like, is that
a problem for him?
I don't think it's a problem.
I think he definitely gets stuff.
when he's sitting at dinner because, like, you know, it happens.
Like people get notice at dinner and shit.
People like sports.
People might do, are you Roy McElroy?
They might not be your Royal Roy McElroy.
You know what I mean?
Like, I think there's a difference in that.
Or just not convinced.
No.
He's famous.
He's famous.
I think, dude, I walk these streets with Dave Portnoy.
He gets stopped every single place.
Dude, I think if you're doing the, are you Roy or McElroy, you know damn well.
Okay.
I don't think he's right.
I think he's big enough that you're not, like, confused if it's him or not.
He's got a pretty unique.
look. He does. He does have a unique look.
I think it's, oh, if you know, you know, but like, it's not like wishy-washy like a Tommy Fleetwood could be pretty like, are you?
There's some other. No, Fleetwood's fine in America. Yeah, totally. But I don't know. Yeah, Rory might not be fine. It might be a problem. I think it's a scene. I might be way off. I think you guys. People might be falling out of the buildings. Like trying to look at it. I don't think so, man. Dude, Bruce Willis was walking these streets and they and Franeria said that he had to come up to them. I think he was a little drunk. But he was like, what are you going?
is doing today and like he's and they were saying like no one was saying but he's
fucking bruce willis like people haven't seen him and bruce he's willis fucking kidding me come
dude bruce willis in the darkest light doesn't matter he's bruce willis he's a thousand times
25,000 times more famous than rory mackerel yeah 25 billion times you think dude i would say no
to that the reason he's a movie star one of the biggest arguments you've ever had one of the biggest
argument do you one of the biggest he's in
Movies, man.
No, I know.
Rory's, I mean, a famous golfer.
Bruce Willis is international to a point where people don't even know what golf is.
I disagree.
I think Roy is more famous than Bruce Willis.
God, Bruce Willis always starts these arguments.
We did this, Bruce Willis or Bruce Springsteen.
That was what started, like, one of the biggest.
See, I'm partial to the boss, but.
Bruce Willis is famous.
More famous than Bruce Springsteen?
I'm saying no to that.
Yeah.
What?
Maybe I'm downplaying Bruce Will.
So downplaying.
Yeah, I guess I'm, I'm,
I might be way off base here, but I'm taking the other side of those.
Die hard.
I remember the diehard.
Right.
Armageddon.
You can't brag about Armageddon's.
The diehards that really win me over.
But it's not about you.
No.
I mean, but Armageddon was like a makeup.
Pulpiction.
Pretty good one.
We're talking about some of the biggest movies of all times.
I'm just saying right now if Rory walks down the street and then Bruce Willis walks down the street,
Rory's going to turn more head.
No chance.
God, you idiot and buffoon.
You idiot and buffoon.
I mean, it's just your opinion versus mine.
You have no factual evidence that you're right or wrong.
I think you're incorrect.
You're just the kid stuck in Long Island watching a fucking movie in your basement all summer long.
I live in New York City.
I'm not stuck in any basement.
No, but when you were a kid, you were watching the diehards with your friends doing nothing.
What do more people do?
Do they watch golf or do they watch movies?
But what's the difference in a guy watching Rory Macquarie playing a golf tournament?
So they definitely watch more movies.
Yep.
By a long shot.
By millions.
BGA Tours, like the six biggest fucking sport.
However,
the four major sports and then golf.
I would say is, you know, he's the biggest name in golf minus Tiger Woods.
But dude, you're missing like.
Bruce Willis is not.
And he's also been.
We haven't seen him in 10 years.
Bruce Wilson has been famous for 30 years.
Roy's been famous for 15.
Bruce Willis has people.
I mean, what is your thing with Bruce Willis?
I just really think.
He's super famous.
And that goes more to my point that no one knows on the street.
I will say I'm not a huge, like, movie actor person.
I don't know a lot of these names.
Sure.
I might make some dumb acclaims here, though.
Who's more famous, him or Nick Cage?
Bruce Willis.
Bruce Willis.
By Miles?
I don't want to buy Miles because Nick Cage also has this like new age of being in memes and shit.
Yes, yes.
That's why he picks up a lot of flavor.
Correct.
Because he's still like, I'm not relevant.
It's like kind of the wrong word, but still kind of is.
Bruce Willis is Boyle Boy, oh, boy, is he famous.
But now he's not, Bruce Willis isn't on the same level like is like a Mel Gibson.
I think they're both in the same.
That's the same level?
Yes, it's like a certain tier you hit.
Well, hey, I can be wrong about that.
Yeah, no, this is a place where people can be wrong.
This is a place where we can learn in here.
We're telling you you're wrong.
Well, you guys, again, haven't brought up anything factual that states that you're right.
And you could actually argue that, like, I started this by saying no one noticed them on the street because I did.
No, you did.
Well, we could end it.
So that's really an argument against Rory.
Right.
That's what I mean.
Yeah, so it's an argument for Rory.
For Rory.
Or against, you could say.
He could say, well, no one noticed him and he would think they were.
Rory got noticed.
Didn't we could say that because...
I think Rory wouldn't get noticed.
I think...
Where the hell are we in this outline?
One of these two said that Bruce Willows is $25 billion.
Yeah, well, that's...
Frankie doesn't know how to communicate.
You don't.
Like, strategically, you don't know how to communicate.
Because you just say outlandish things,
and that's your whole...
Well, if you're going to take my mathematical, like,
comparisons, like, legitimate...
It was just funny.
It was...
Right.
25 billion?
Exactly.
Yeah.
I'm just saying, I think it's far and away,
Bruce Willis is more famous across the globe, like in fucking India and Africa, like where Zah is from.
He's never heard of Rory Macroy, and they watch Die Hard and fucking Pulp Fiction and shit because those movies are literally transcendent.
Fun fact, Zaz dad, huge golfer.
He is.
Massif.
Who's the, uh, who cried when I got him a master's hat?
Who's the guy that we met and Zah met?
Nick Price.
Nick Price from Zimbabwe.
We met him as Shinnikov last year.
Unreal moment.
Zah was like in tears.
Zah, was I just happened to come to Shinnikog with us to Shag Ball.
Yeah, I have great video.
And Nick Price, his hometown hero from Zimbabwe, happened to be just standing there.
What are the fuck of the odds of that?
It's crazy.
That ended up being huge for us.
About $25 billion to one, those odds.
Yeah.
Nick Price got on a little knee.
He didn't.
He was chatting right up, chatting Zazir off.
Yeah.
That's awesome.
That's a cool moment.
He's a little person.
Yep, he is.
Just for anyone that doesn't know.
When Dave was hitting balls and trying to break the score at Jinnak, he was working.
Yep.
That was a huge moment because that was the moment that we met the U.S.
SGA, like in person for the first time.
We showed up looking like a goddamn circus act with we just had.
We looked so outrageous, like such a motley crew.
We were laughing.
Dave at one point was like chirping about Nick Price being there, being like, you're
trying to steal my like African midget away from me.
And this is the USGA, like the Blue Blazer USGA that we're just meeting.
That's when they knew that we were the ones.
Trying to make a good impression.
and then the Nick Price and how phenomenally he interacted with Zah
and made Zah's day right away kind of diffused any concerns.
It was like, oh, this is actually a beautiful moment.
So that was massive.
Anyway, we're talking about slow play.
Holy shit, fellas.
Yeah.
Boy, did we get off track.
Let's steal this thing back onto this fucking road.
All right.
There's something, ladies and gentlemen, that we can all agree on every single one of us.
Nurses, doctors, dentists, which my dad's a dentist.
Shout to my dad, Dr. Steve.
and people who work in medicine and health care are pretty awesome.
All of us can think of a time when a medical professional helped us or a family member.
I'm sure there's many, many, many, many times for all of you out there.
What these amazing people do every day is more than a job,
and what they wear is more than a uniform.
Shouldn't they wear scrubs that help them feel good and perform at their best?
Yes, they absolutely should.
FIGS is an amazing company that is making scrubs stylish and functional for the people who deserve it most.
For years, nurses, doctors, dentists, and other awesome men,
medical professionals were forced to wear scratchy, ill-fitting scrubs.
I know because my old man would meet us for like dinner after work and he'd come in.
Scrums.
Very uncomfortable.
Yeah.
Makes sense.
I would say I'm very uncomfortable.
These scrubs stink.
Dude, having good scrubs has to, I mean, because scrubs you would think should be comfortable, right?
It's like a all one color and it's all like, you know, that fabric that you would be like,
oh, you know, those guys, like you said, they're in there all day.
They're doing overnights.
and at that point
great point
I did it overnight
to the hospitals
and stuff
to my girlfriend
and my girlfriend works
at a hospital
and she's like
you know
this things needs to be
comfortable
and I told her
about figs
no jokes
she ordered them
makes sense
she loves them
loves them
look we've rocked
these
okay
they've sent these
two ones
said you gotta check
out the scrubs
the fig scrub
you don't have to be
a doctor
you can wear
them around your house
they're cool
they send them to us
I wear them
all the time
that's part
of Trent's soft clothes
routine
now they're
part of the
rotation
now the figs
are in the
soft clothes
rotation. And you love them. I do. You wouldn't wear them if you didn't love them. Correct. Figs gift
cards are available next time your doctor, nurse, dentist, dermatologist, or pediatrician saves the
day. Tell them thank you by sending them figs. So whether you are one of the awesome humans that

He says what he said about the slow play stuff said,
I'm sorry, he, first of all, the FedEx Cup,
he was, you know, I keep getting these two things mixed up because I wrote
on there.
But what he said about the FedEx Cup is,
obviously, you know, true that you have to create this prestige.
But I also think that in order to create that prestige, you have to get all the best
players to play in these events.
And in order to get them to play, you had to put a bunch of money there.
Right?
Right.
Correct.
Like now these guys play in all the playoff events.
And I think the reason they play in all of them is because there's a ton of money.
Right.
It's both.
You can't not play for $15 million.
You have to do it.
You have to.
Now, there's definitely like, it has, and that has kind of added some prestige, but also, like,
something that's called the FedEx Cup that is like after all the majors end is not going to be the prestige of the fucking Masters like never so it's almost you know I don't know man at some point if they keep up in this prize like if they're playing for $30 million in like five years like that thing's going to hold a lot of fucking weight but that's the opposite of Roar is saying
Roy legitimately said who knows what the winner wins at the Masters I don't because that's not what it's about if the FedEx Cup wants to create legacy it lasts longer it doesn't
need to be about the money.
It should be the prestige of winning an event that you'll be remembered for it.
I think at some point the money becomes...
I think for the players, it becomes vitally important.
But for the fan base that's watching and caring about it, I think it really doesn't
have a huge effect.
It draws a couple extra eyes, but I think you're totally glued into a green jacket,
jacket, clear a jug, etc.
Like, that's what makes all these other tournaments so in a way is that they're just
older.
They're old.
Right.
Year five, like the Masters wasn't the Masters.
Right.
Wait a hundred years.
And then it'll be like, oh, they've got all these past championships.
of all these guys and then you get it
it's not going to happen right away
it's a pretty big burn rate if you're going to put
$15 million for 100 years to get these
But you just like you know what I mean though
Like yeah but they're not going to go down in the prize
No it's going to go up right if it's 15 million now it'll be 500 million
Yeah correct but you're right they'll have the clips of tiger
Walking up East Lake like last year they'll have
Bill Hoss like hitting the ball out of the water on
17 when he got up and down like they'll have
And whatever memories happened between now
now and then. Like there'll be a bunch of them.
Absolutely. That's what brings prestige to event.
What they try to do is speed it up and they were like,
we're going to throw a bunch of money at it. And that gets guys involved
for, you know, at the start of something.
Right. To me, why can't the money part also be part of the prestige?
Like every tournament or every major has their thing, right?
The open is on that side of the pond and you're going to get the claret jug
and there's all that history.
The U.S. Open. The U.S. Open is, you know, the U.S. Open trophy.
It's an incredibly hard, difficult golf course.
The Masters, you get the green jacket, the whole thing.
Why can't this tour championship be like you're going to win the most money you're ever going to win in a golf tournament?
Like this is like that's the part of the prestige.
Like it's going to be.
And that is.
That is part.
That is the thing.
And that is what it's right.
Because I disagree with Rory in that ass.
Right.
I do too.
And on ESPN, right, like they'll use the clip of like he had this pot to win $15 million.
That's what they'll say.
It won't be like, oh, yeah, this putt to win the tour championship and leave that out.
No, they're like, no, no.
This put was for $15 million.
Yeah.
And so I think that is kind of they go hand in hand.
You got like Kevin Kisner winning the Torch Championship when he's already worth,
like he's worth 19, 20 million of career earnings to win 15 million for making like a one final putt
would be just as much prestige as him putting on.
I know, I know in the end of the day, wants like a green jacket and all stuff,
but man, boy, doubling your career earnings with one final putt would be fucking prestigious.
I wouldn't put it past Kevin Kisner to rather win the FedEx Cup than the match.
Dude, I mean, at some point, like, why not?
Right.
Play August any time he wants anyway.
Right.
Like, kids legit.
If you ask you, what are you winning for the Masters?
It would be like, like, I have like, $2 million.
Where are you going for a FedEx Cup?
15.
You'd be like, why the fuck when I want to win the Vegas Cup?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, duh.
That's outrageous.
So the Barstle account tweeted out my Phil Mickelson blog, and my title was, since
when does Phil Mickelson have the body of a Greek god?
And he just responded to the Barstle tweet.
He said, it's a recent development.
Hell yeah.
Come on.
Okay.
Daddy.
Okay.
That's good.
Well, he responded to the Barstle account.
But that's your headline.
That is my headline, yeah.
That's good.
We need to get, we got to get Phil.
I was fishing for him with my tweet earlier.
I saw that.
I was fishing.
We didn't even put him in the, we didn't put him in the, we didn't add him on the headline either.
He much just saw it.
So they had to have tagged him.
Phil's a Barso fan.
Yeah.
Love it.
Huge.
Let's get him on the show.
Come on Phil.
Boy does the internet stink in this place.
Yeah, I can't even get an update.
I can't even see that tweet.
Man, that's a bummer.
Oh.
I see it now.
Hell yeah.
Oh, he's responding to a bunch of a bunch right now.
Hell yeah.
Yeah, he's live on Twitter right now.
I'll see Rigsies.
Oh, man.
This is one of those Phil Buffet of bits.
He's just sitting fireside with a pH.
You kind of hate the fight.
I like Phil.
The pH fireside thing always throws me off.
It's like a buffet a bit.
It's because he did Zach Johnson for that one.
Yeah, threw me off.
I still do like Phil.
I don't want that to ever get tarnished.
Okay.
It's hard to read.
Sorry to me to throw us off again.
On slow play, Rory, said I've had enough of the slow play.
Stuff.
I had two hours of it last week at the player advisory council meeting,
and that came to absolutely nothing.
The European tour has implemented a plan.
It's going to include increased timing of players and more proactive targeting of slower players.
Players will also be penalized a stroke after just two bad times.
Brooks Kepka responded to that and said, perfect.
We should adopt it.
I'd love to see how many bad times guys get.
I think you'll see some urgency to play.
Rory's other option or other suggestion was in order to,
you know, speed up play, he said, cut field sizes.
He says, seriously, it's like traffic, right?
You get 156 in the field.
It's hard to get those guys around quickly.
Even last week, 70, there was no mention of pace of play.
I'm in a privileged position that I can say that because I'm going to get into a field of 30 or 70.
Obviously, guys that are not quite in my position would disagree with that.
But if you want to speed up play, cut the field sizes.
And again, this is another big reason that we love Rory is that he's very honest in all of his takes.
He was honest about his money and was like, yeah, money's not a big deal.
It's great having money.
and he's to be honest in here being like, yeah, no, we should just cut all the field sizes,
which is great for me because I'm going to be in all of them, which is a nice, easy thing to say.
A bunch of people suggested that, cutting the field sizes, but then you're just changing all of golf.
Yeah.
Like how many people get their BGA tour cards, corn fairy tour, status, who gets to play for their livelihood, this, that.
You're just like diminishing all of that.
That trickles down in the very few spots that there are to make a living, playing professional golf, get minimized,
and there's less golfers to watch for fans and spectators
when they go to tournaments.
So, like, that's just probably not going to ever, ever, ever be a solution.
I like looking at this Keppka quo where he goes,
perfect, we should adopt it.
I picture him being like, perfect, let's adopt it.
Like, let's do it right now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's just do it.
I don't care.
If that guy's got a solution, let's just do it right now.
I don't care.
He just wants something to happen, really anything.
Perfect.
We should adopt it.
Perfect.
He didn't even know.
He didn't even know what they were talking about.
Cool.
We have a, cool.
There's been a suggested perfect adopt it.
He hates slow play.
Don't blame him.
And then to stay on Brooks Kevka a little bit, him and Justin Thomas, they had a little
bet, a little year-long bet on holeouts.
Now, this was actually revealed to us to the world on 4Play in January, and we talked
to JT.
And remember that we were busting his balls about the three wood from 350 that he hit,
and then half a second after he hit it said, like, go in.
and we were we were that was our time and we were very hard on just Thomas and we were kind of debating on the show if that was like really douchy or not to say go in from 350 jt agreed that it was duchy and said the reason i said that was because i was playing with brooks kepka at the time and brooks kepka and i do yearlong bets on things like albatross holeouts etc looks like jt's going to cash in he says quote i got three holeouts and he's got zero so i am leading right now um kebka said the two came up with the bet
which only counts shots over 50 yards
while playing together in South Korea last fall.
I can't remember the last time I hold out.
Kepka said, I don't really hold out much.
That was a stupid bet on my part.
Heck, I'll pay him on Sunday.
That's good stuff.
So that's good shit.
Just like learning more about these guys
and the stuff that they get into out there
is fascinating.
It adds a lot of depth to him, which we like.
And then this question that's been floated around,
Will Tiger pick himself as a president's cup captain's pick?
Those picks will be made in November 4th.
Obviously, he'll pick himself, I think.
I like this other quote where he's like,
I'm going to keep an open line of communication with the players and my vice
captains. Imagine him in a group text,
sending it out to all the guys being like,
hey guys,
you want me to play? And someone writing like, no.
Hard to foresee a future with that in it.
Imagine Bryson be like, you know what, man,
like we've been looking at your analytics and I just don't think this is the correct year.
Your ball speeds a little off.
And unless you want to get hooked up to one of our putting meters and one of our
putting robots,
and I don't think you're cut out for this team.
And Tiger is writing like, okay.
You're cut.
I'll find a way to get you off the team.
Tiger is responding.
I'm playing.
That's just like hilarious that there's even a conversation.
You're right.
Who the hell is going to send Tiger negative information about his own game?
Nobody.
Nobody.
I can just see him.
I can see.
I hope he starts.
Just on him if he wants to play or not.
I hope he like starts a group text writes and just writes,
I'm in.
And like all the responses are Tiger gifts like from all the other guys.
Like him fist bumping and all this stuff.
It would be so electric.
I'd probably pay close with $1,000 to be in that group in that group.
Not able to say anything.
Not able to say anything.
No, you're just PCCed on every text.
Yeah, what would you pay for that?
Grand for sure.
I mean, that's like, I mean, at some point.
$2,500.
Yeah, because I was just say you can't go too high because at some point you don't gain anything from it.
Well, I guess you do.
Gaines and some way they talk.
Yeah, some insights.
Just like.
I would pay for it and I would just use it on the show all the time.
Yeah, so actually for business.
It's just expensive.
For business.
Genius.
That's such a good idea.
Not a problem.
For business use, we should go way higher.
Totally.
We have a streamlined information center just on our phone.
You know what's going to happen now?
Fucking kids are going to catch wind of this and be like, all right, boys, 20 grand.
He's like, I'll put you on that fucking list.
I don't care.
Who's this random number?
Or he just swaps himself out?
He's just like, I don't need to be there.
He definitely gets out of your rigs.
When a random number gets added to a Tiger Woods' his phone, his phone just deactivates
and he gets handed a new one from Robbie Matt.
Your phone blows up.
No, it just goes the other way.
No, no, no.
Immediately he gets a notification of Robbie Mac just hands him a new one.
With all the, like, Robbie Mac's job is also to just update everything at the same time as Tiger all his text messages.
So at that moment, he just hands it to him and Tiger just keeps texting without Riggs's number ever involved in it.
Just never again.
The best was kids, we were at Liberty National.
He was like, all right, you boys come out to the range.
We're going to film that video for winning the MetLife matchup and all that.
I'm like, all right.
I go, what time are you going to be?
be on the range. He was, I don't know what time do I tee off. I was like, are you serious?
Yeah. So I looked it up and I was like, you tee off at like 1255. He's like, I'll be there
two hours before that. He did that at the U.S. Open too where we were asking him where he's
teeing off like that next morning like for the practice round like the first or the 10th. And he's like,
I don't know what's to say. Like on the car. What a guy. I hope he makes the team. But yeah,
I think Tiger will pick. What are his odds to make the team?
Pretty good. I think high.
High. Winning the match play, I think cemented him on the team.
win in the Del Natch Place.
Do we know, like, who's, like, who he would have to pass, or can we, like, guess?
I don't know that he can, I don't even know that he can mathematically.
Actually, I think there are some possibilities.
Like, who would they, who would, who would be basically not, not invited if Kiz was to be?
Like, would there be a better golfer with a better ranking?
Are Internet so bad?
I know.
It's insane.
I shouldn't even have asked a question that has to do with anything looking up.
So I legit, I just have the standby circle, you know?
We should send this clip to Pete and say, is this what you wanted?
This, all business Pete is our, is our tech guy who built the office horrifically.
So we have no, we don't, you know, our studios aren't even really sound.
There's some things he built out.
I mean, it's all in all, it's a nice office.
It's just there's some essential things that just aren't correct.
Are messed up.
Yep.
But to his credit, to his defense, like, he did it all himself.
So obviously there's going to be a couple of kinks here and there.
That's correct.
You know, I think his last time I remember checking, and again, I can't look it up on my phone, which is on my computer, which is incredibly infuriating.
He was like just outside.
But, you know, he'll be in a crew of like six guys or so that are heavily considered.
He was on the last President's Cup team out at Liberty National.
We watched him out there where he was partnered with Phil and they were dancing and all that.
Had a great record, had a great time.
They love him.
He's boys with all of the guys.
Everybody loves kids.
He's boys with Tiger.
Remember we watched, I mean, we watched.
kids walk right up the tiger on the range when we were at i believe the u.s open and just kind of
tap tiger and chirped him and tiger looked back and like laughs like he's boys with all the guys
so he's 15th in president cum rankings he's 15 yeah he was 16th last week and he won the match play
right so top eight qualify you know tiger's 13th he's 15 gotcha so top eight qualify automatically
12 people go so like even if you're close to that top 12 in your kids who's boys with everybody
who he carries a lot of statistics that you want which
He's a steady ed.
He drives the ball straight.
He rolls his rock.
You've got to make puts in that thing.
And he's got the camaraderie.
He was really good at the last President's Cup.
So I'd be surprised.
We'll get a campaign going where we'll just make it impossible for them not to pick kids.
Yep.
Even I don't know, Tiger's going to care about what we said.
Who would you say is last in the President's Cup?
Who had literally no chance?
Who was the worst player that qualified for like enough points to be considered in the standings?
I'm going to guess.
Oh, man.
If he got this, this would be.
I'm going to guess, like...
Webb had a great year.
What's he at?
Daniel Burger.
No, like, you had to have a horrible year.
Horrible year.
Who's last?
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
The name is...
Burger lost his card.
Right.
What did you think we meant?
Oh, I thought you meant, like, last of the people that were at the party.
I don't know.
Sean McKeel?
Oh, Sean McKeel?
McKeel.
No way.
Yeah.
Really?
Yep.
Tide for 191st with Neil Lancaster.
John, you had no chance.
No, no.
You got no shot.
There's so many people ahead of you.
There's just my finger hurts scrolling about all the people Tiger could have picked ahead of you.
I think it's a no-brainer.
Tiger will pick himself.
He said I'll be playing with a lot of the guys in Florida.
Said Wood, he was only scheduled to play the Zososio Championship this fall.
They're going to be getting ready for some of the fall events.
We'll have some matches, and that's always fun because we're able to talk trash.
Have a great time and try and get in one another's pockets.
That will be something that I will definitely rely on.
So, you know, he'll be in the mix.
He'll be playing golf with the guys.
That means to me he's just, he's obviously going to pick himself.
Yep.
I don't think there's any doubt, literally zero doubt.
From the gallery, we're going to go through a couple of these.
It's been a little bit of a long show already,
but there are a few that have been on the list for a while that I want to get to.
From the gallery, you submit 4Play at BarsallSports.com.
that's how you send them in.
Dom says, we'd love to hear you guys talk out of the podcast,
some of your favorite side bet golf games that we could start mixing in when we are out there.
I think we've described snake before, but if you haven't,
snake is an awesome game where anytime you three putt, you become the snake,
the last person of three putt loses.
Oof.
It's a dangerous game with me and Larch in the group.
It is a really dangerous game.
You don't want to be the snake.
You can also do a deal where like anytime somebody three putts, you owe five bucks to the pot.
And then the last, you know, whoever finishes last has to like pay everybody out.
What a legendary like on the last hole hitting a bomb for the second put.
Oh, we like not having like, I'm out.
I'm out.
I'm done.
Nothing.
Snake delivers some phenomenal moments too on 16, 17, 18 things get really dicey because you.
You could play lights out.
You could shoot 71 and then on your 18th hole you three put and then you just lose.
Totally.
I mean, you could have an eagle bid on the 18th hole, Frankie,
and you could three, Jack, have a great round and, like, lose.
That would actually affect my strategy of golf.
Exactly.
If you're doing two-man best ball and you're playing a match and, like, you've got a 30-footer
and, like, you need to make it to win the hole, but it's like the 17th or 18th hole,
you're like, I might lag this thing up here.
I don't know.
I like this game.
It's great.
Snake's awesome.
This weekend.
And then it delivers a lot of good chatter.
You could be like, oh, that put looks pretty reptilian, stuff like that.
You really get into, you know, a lot of guys make snake noise as you go,
whenever somebody's got like five feet after their first pot.
You can really fuck with people.
John Tvers, that fucking snakes.
Good player.
Snakes are great one.
And then another great game.
We mentioned it a couple weeks ago when we were talking about our Wisconsin trip recap,
but I don't know if everybody captured it, but Vegas is awesome.
One of the most diabolical.
It's really just, you know, it's two-on-two best ball on steroids.
and the way it works is you take the scores of both of you on the team, the net score.
So if one guy makes a four, the other guy makes a six, your team's score is 46.
If the other team makes a five and a six, there's, of course, 56, you'd be up 10 points on them.
And you can make points worth whatever you want.
A dollar is pretty standard.
You can go $2, you can go $5, but things can get outrageous.
Quickly.
Quickly.
You do a dollar a point?
We did dollar points.
So if you're up, if you just beat them by 25 points, you're down 25 points.
Well, hold on.
Let rigs keep going because the story kind of plays out in a second.
Now things worked out for me in Wisconsin.
Now you can, if you make birdie, you flip the other teams to scores.
Oh, no.
So it's like 47, 74?
Yes.
Correct.
Oh, geez.
In dollar points.
Correct.
So there are huge like $40 putts.
That's a tough game.
So in Wisconsin, I made five birdies on the front.
Dude, our group was up like, I don't know, $120
bucks after nine holes or something like that.
Yeah, this isn't about Wisconsin.
You mentioned it.
We can talk about it all the time.
It was great.
He was pissed.
But, like, I mean, there are holes, right,
where you guys make $4,5, 4.5.
Totally, no blood.
Yeah.
Totally.
I mean, usually you go through around with your friends.
How many birdies are there?
There's not that many.
No, but there are a lot of holes where, like,
my pairing will just destroy the other pairing.
Totally.
But if there's no birdies, then it's like,
you're still the low number.
So it could be a 48, doesn't feel.
that bad. It's where you flip them that they get in big trouble. So like par
fives are interesting, especially if there's a lot of trouble. Because like one guy, you know,
usually you can get up or close in two so you're playing, you know, par three from 10 or 20 yards
off the green. And so if you're seeing one guy like duff in the water, you're like, no, no, no,
you're dropping from back there. Like, I want to see whatever number you're going to put up
and then flip them and make a bunch of money on that hole. Vegas is awesome. It's interesting.
Vegas is an intense game. You know, most of the time, right, you get something. What happens when
someone makes like an 11.
I actually asked about that because one of the...
Usually you do a max score.
Okay.
Usually you do a max.
If it's like a...
If it's a 5 and 11, you flip it, or is it 5.
No, usually you do like a 9 or an 8's a max score.
Yeah, yeah.
So it can't get, you know, too outrageous.
You don't have to do the max score, but that game's called Vegas.
All right, I like that game.
It's a phenomenal game.
So I just wanted to throw a couple of those in there.
Matt says my girlfriend broke up with me basically because I play golf every day.
I started the summer at around a 10-a-handicap.
Now I'm down to a six.
Do you guys think it was worth?
Yeah.
Wrong question.
This just made me laugh.
Yeah.
I think it's worth it.
What were the chance
that they were going to work out anyway?
I mean, zero.
If you don't like this, it was going to be that.
Yeah, exactly.
All right, we got some things going on on on Twitter sphere.
Wow.
I'm sorry.
All right, so, so, so Phil Mickelson responded to the bar stool
headline that Trent wrote, where Trent wrote, since when does Phil
Mickelson have the body of a Greek god?
Phil responded, it's a recent development.
Some random stoolie just responded.
Would you consider doing a do,
dual podcast with Jake Owen and make the four play recording room catch on fire.
And Phil responded, maybe.
This guy then responded, at this point, I'm doing your job for you.
Phil's going to show up to HQ with $90,000 dollars bills.
And Phil wrote already did that.
Wow.
So he's just, wow.
Is he close by?
I think we need to like almost stop talking about like things right now and just figure
out what we're going to tweet if he'll have to say because he's on fire.
Like we should almost like live craft tweet.
a tweet at Phil.
So what are we going to do here?
We got to come up with something.
Right now.
How do we cash in on this?
Do we think this is actually, Phil?
Yes.
That does all this?
Yes.
Okay.
Because these responses are too quick and like meaningless, right?
Like a team doesn't come up with him writing maybe to a Stooley saying you should go to the four-point podcast.
I agree with that.
Like that's not even a team thing.
What do we need to appeal to Phil to be successful?
Is gambling side?
That's not a bad.
That's not a bad direction to go, Trent Dutney.
But I don't want to, I don't have to gamble with his appearance.
I bet you don't come in, Phil, or something like that?
I bet I do.
I don't know, man.
This is a tough tweet to craft.
Who's going to send it from the 4Play account?
Or is this going to be from the great play?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think from 4 play is a good call.
Yeah, being like, Phil, 20 bucks, you never come on the show.
20 is not going to care about.
No, but that's what he does with fans all the time.
He always goes, I'll bet you 20 bucks.
I get up and down from here.
and then hands the fan like 20 bucks when he doesn't.
He does that old thought.
I don't rate it.
Phil, we bet you 20 bucks you don't come on the show.
That's what you just said.
No, I'm saying it to myself.
Like, you're re-saying it out loud, trying to see how familiar how comfortably are with.
How about this?
How about this?
Well, the $20 does seem a little soft because everyone's a big, ooh.
You may get a lot of those gifts of Bill Murray.
Might get a lot of traction that way, though.
You may get a lot of kingpin.
Ooh.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Phil wipes his ass at 20 bucks.
I know what you're saying.
But you might get more traction with, like, just a measly 20 bucks.
Bet you're one dollar.
Yeah, I know, exactly.
Right, because then you're just telling people like, they know what you're doing.
Right, right.
You're just saying, like, I know he likes to him.
Phil, a hundred bucks.
I'll bet you a hundred bucks you won't come on our podcast, Phil.
Do we love the gambling side?
I know that was just one of the three out there.
I don't love it.
I don't love it.
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah, I don't love it.
I don't either.
Can we do any play with the ocean that he's in?
I feel like, he might just be like, fine, and then it's over.
Right.
He could just happen like that.
He could say, don't need it.
Yeah.
That's what he responded.
Don't need it.
Bet you 20 bucks you come in a big.
Don't need it.
Won't ever come.
He could.
He could get out that way.
Yeah, I think that's more likely to say that than like, okay, I really want to come and make that $20.
Right.
I agree with that.
Because, like, he may be along with a joke.
I know it's only, the amount is only to say that you're going to bet him, but like, he could,
he could make us look stupid.
And then roast us.
He could make us stupid.
He might tweet back with a video of him just like throwing money out of his pockets.
That'd be awesome.
It would be awesome.
That'd be great.
But he'd also be like boom, roast and I'm never coming on your podcast.
But I don't think, like, I don't think that, I don't think.
You don't think it's ultimately going to make the decision.
I don't think what we tweet out of right now is all the way going.
I know, I know.
But it's a big stepping stone.
I agree.
The tiger stuff was all stepping stones.
Just a bunch of little ones.
So many stepping stones.
Was this calculated with Tiger and it worked.
We knew where to be.
We knew what to say.
We knew who to talk to.
So this is a big moment here.
We got to send this now.
Should we appeal to like how skinny he looks?
He's got to be sensitive about that right now, right?
Like how good he looks.
Yeah.
Like Phil.
Phil,
No way you look that good in person.
Prove it.
Like Phil.
It's not terrible.
That's actually pretty good.
It's pretty good there.
That's pretty good.
I think you got to fire it off.
Yeah.
I do it.
You fire from the hip.
Play with the money.
If you miss,
you have another shot tomorrow.
Yep.
And I'm going to include the picture.
No.
What are we responding to?
Like, where?
That's a good question.
Where are we responding?
Probably under recent development?
Or do we,
or no,
no,
no,
you respond to maybe
where he said that he would maybe.
To his maybe?
Yeah,
I think so.
Because when they said,
would you consider
coming on the four plate pockets
of Jake Owen
and make that,
and catch that,
that room on fire?
Yeah.
Be like something,
yeah,
something to the effect of like,
or if it's Photoshop.
So the person said,
are you going to show up
and catch the room on fire?
Should be like,
show up to this room like,
like,
with that body or something like that.
Like, and...
We sexting philmats.
I dare you to show up to the forplay room with that body.
Phil,
Phil,
bring that body over there.
You'll walk in the seat,
he'll pop that top off to see if that body's really
those nipples, Phil.
Yeah.
Check up those washboard abs you're talking about.
We're not doing this to the point where I keep forgetting that we're recording,
and I feel like I'm going to say something.
Totally.
This whole podcast has actually felt like we're not really recording.
Yeah.
Like we're about to hit record.
Yeah.
Pretty much.
Yeah.
That's a good podcast.
Yeah, it's been hot and gold.
Riggs is looking directly at us.
Straight eyes.
Eyes look incredible.
They do.
They're completely gone.
Even Dave said it on the show.
They're fixed.
The eyes are fixed.
He's like, I got to be honest.
The eyes are really coming around.
They're moving in conjunction.
They're really.
Thanks.
I can't see him.
Correct.
You'll never see your own face,
by the way.
Only the reflections.
That's a horrifying thing.
I've actually thought about that.
You thought about that, Lurch.
You will never,
ever see your own face.
Ever.
Yeah.
I mean, mirrors don't count.
No.
No.
You'll never see the actual face.
Yeah.
I'm fine with that.
Okay.
I can see my nose.
Yeah, you can because it's huge.
I just watch alerts go outside.
You can't.
You can see your nose too, though.
All right.
Keep that heat up for this.
I'll take that.
I'll take that.
Bullshit.
All right.
What's the tweet?
Yeah.
What's the tweet?
So I think, Phil, I don't know if I want to say there's no chance you look this good in person
because I don't want to roast him.
Yeah.
Phil, hard to believe you looked this good in person.
Come prove it.
Love it.
Send it.
Yeah.
You know, it's from the hip
That's what it is
That's what our tweet is
Come to the studio and prove it
Come prove it
Come prove it from a four-play account that
Yeah, okay
Because then maybe he looks at the name
Like who just said that
Come where
Foreplay, bar stool
All right
Come in and prove it
I think come prove it is
I'm responding to a thread of the guy
Being like go on four board
So you understood
Fair
Yep
Phil Hart
Hold on one last
Just final check.
Final answer.
Phil,
hard to believe you looked
this good in person.
Come prove it.
Love it.
Fire it off.
The tweet sent.
Just don't put a,
just don't put a comma after come
and in between prove it.
Come, prove it.
This is not good.
You got to have really
thinking about that the whole time?
Yeah, I was.
I will say our internet's so bad
that it's still sending.
You're trying to want to laugh at that.
I just,
I included the picture, right?
Was I included the picture?
You did.
No.
No, don't include the picture.
I don't know how to not do it now.
Oh, you did include the picture.
Oh, you did include the picture.
Oh,
picture.
Yeah, because it said, no way you look this good, like I had to include the picture.
All right, that's fine.
Right?
If I'm going to say this good.
The only thing is that it's a response to the picture, but that's fine.
It's too late now.
Yeah, it's out in the public.
I mean, we sure as hell can't delete it.
No.
Gutless.
I will say I didn't.
Yeah.
Dude, it was sick to get.
The only reason I brought this up, I know we were doing from the guy was was because
I just got a notification on my phone.
It just said Phil Mickelson responded to a tweet that you were in.
I was like, holy shit.
I saw that too, actually.
That's a cool feeling.
Should have screenshoted that.
I know.
All right.
All right.
Let's wrap this thing up.
Yeah.
All right.
We just crafted a tweet.
It's out there.
It's out there.
It is.
It's out there.
We'll see if he responds.
You're going to have to look at our Twitter.
Or maybe he responds by the time we're finished with the show.
You may.
Some kid just responding.
He goes, in case you're wondering,
9 million can buy you 166 million butter knives.
One hell of a way of a Christmas
gift for Frankie Burelli.
Fuck.
That's a bummer.
It's a lot of butter knives.
That's a bummer.
Tough.
All right.
All right, gang.
That's all I got.
Everybody enjoy Eastlake.
It won't be as cool without Tiger Woods winning it.
But J.T.
One of our guys.
Be really cool for him to win 15 million.
Would love to see that.
Kids, tease off only eight shots back.
That's how he starts the tournament.
Just eight shots behind.
So, you know, it'll be interesting.
It'll be fun.
enjoy the tournament.
We will be back on Tuesday.
As always, hit it hard.
Hit it hard.
Hit it hard.
Wait, wait, wait.
Don't turn off the podcast.
We got breaking news.
We're still here.
We're still here.
We haven't left.
We've got Phil Mickelson is on a tweet rampage right now.
He responded, first of all, to Lurch.
Lurch tweeted out about his dumb-ass high kicks at the BMW last year.
Which we actually have to, we have to apologize to Lurch.
We were saying that you were like almost out of line.
Like you were being an idiot.
And there's no way that your antics on the side.
of Phil Mickelson at the BMW
championship what he would ever remember
and Lurch tweeted what?
Let me read it. Hold on.
Internet sucks in here.
But I said...
You don't remember what you tweeted. It was like five minutes ago.
Well, there's been a couple tweets right now.
Oh, sorry.
This can't be real.
This is like eight seconds ago.
You're like so excited about this.
You're really dropping the ball on your big moment here.
So he teed you up.
You didn't think I was going to tee you up.
We're doing a whole second.
What do you think we were going to do?
At Phil, do you remember last year at the BMW, comma, a big boy, throwing you high kicks.
Dot, dot, dot, dot.
Hashtag let's dance on four play.
And then he responded to that saying.
Within seconds.
Yeah, within seconds.
He said, yes, they weren't getting over the gallery rope.
How could I forget?
It was comical.
Now, that's an insane response to.
I'm on a high.
You know, because every other response that he's giving is like something in like the Phil realm of like joking.
Like, oh, Phil, you look great.
He's like, I'm doing coffee.
Also short and sweet.
Most characters on my tweet.
One guy wrote, starving yourself isn't healthy, Phil.
Neither is sucking in your belly.
And he wrote, I'm doing both.
Like, he's just, like, kind of messing around people.
Yours is very, like, I remember you on the golf course.
So then, so we were sitting here just after the show real quick.
And I was like, I got to get in on this.
Like, we have to, like, take advantage of Phil just going on a tweeting spree.
So I wrote, Phil, it's time for you.
And I spelled for pH.
Smart.
It's time for you to do the impossible and fix.
I spelled fix, pH, my wedge game.
So I said, Phil, it's time for you to do the impossible and fix my wedge game.
Hashtag Frankie Butternise, and I spelled Frankie with a pH.
And he responded within seconds.
I can only do, I can only do so much.
Just yet another fucking body bag.
Dude, we were sitting here and I just put my hand on my eyes.
I just go, not the fucking lefty.
Not the fucking lefty.
And he did it.
Franky the punching bag delivers yet.
Again.
Dude, he's responded.
He's our greatest weapon.
He's on fire.
You becoming the worst chipper of the golf ball in the public eye, in the history of America,
has done more for this podcast, maybe than anything else.
Yep.
Maybe than any other one thing that you could attribute it to.
Well, think about it.
Because when Bryson knew about it, he roasted us.
And that interview made him, made Justin Thomas comfortable to come on the show.
And it just the dominoes fell from there.
They all roast you.
And Frankie, you got to think.
if you were just a normal chipper of the golf ball,
how much less success we may have had as podcasts?
It's really remarkable.
The trajectory that the podcast took was perfectly aligned with my downfall of my short game.
Because at one point I didn't have this bad of a short game.
I remember coming on this podcast at a very early time in my involvement on it,
just being like, you know guys, like I can't hit a fucking wedge every time.
It feels like I'm holding a butter knife.
It feels like I'm just going to slice the ball in half.
and then we just kept talking about my butternives.
And now Phil Mickelson, my dad texted me.
He saw the tweet and he just goes,
I cannot believe you're communicating with one of the best golfers of a century.
Like a guy that,
a sport that has been played for hundreds of years,
this is literally one of the most famous guys that have ever played that sport.
And he is roasting me.
It's like, I have to respond to my dad.
Like, we're not really communicating.
I asked him to help me with my wedge game.
And he's like, I can only do so much.
This is arguably the best short game player of all the time.
ever ever yeah I mean he will he will you know savvy but I would say Phil might
in the media era and like he might be considered perception wise to be the greatest
short game player he's like he goes I can only do so much that's just devastating what a
night what a night this turned into I didn't I didn't expect it I really didn't expect it
it it's been interesting we crafted that tweet which he you know he so he
one of our listeners who originally tweeted out about coming on the show with Jake Owen
responded to our tweet that we crafted to Phil and then Phil responded to that guy.
So that guy kind of fucked us actually.
Yeah.
That guy,
what was that guy's name?
Jake?
Jake fucked us.
Whatever that guy's name is on Twitter.
Yeah, he did.
He kind of fucked.
I think Frankie bought it back.
No, he did.
But like that we were trying to capitalize on that exchange.
That was a direct like come on the show.
True.
That he just,
that guy just cucked from us after Phil's tweet.
Phil's tweet just taking me down
just spreading like a wildfire right now.
I can't imagine.
What was it now?
3,000?
It's been like...
Not three minutes ago.
It's 1,600.
Yeah, it's spreading like wildfire.
It's an 18 minute old tweet.
Human punching bag.
We're at 2400 likes.
Wow.
