I got a buddy who struggles with that shot. A lot. His name's Frankie Burrilli. So the guys actually gave him a nickname of Butter Nives because he's always nice to the cross the green.

Broads 100. Now you've got to break 90. We appreciate what you guys do for golf. It's been really cool. Thank you. You're making it cool. I was like, hey, Phil, you only fucking $29.99. And he grabs 100.

He's like, yeah, I won 90,000 of these yesterday. He goes, take 100 and go, fuck yourself. What? What are you that hitting? It's ain't a hobby. Four players are my barstool sports. Brought to you by our very good friends at Chevrolet. Chevy EVs for everyone everywhere.

We got a big show. We got two huge interviews, really two great interviews. We got Sam Burns, most recent winner on the PGA tour. Myself and Dan talked to him. he's back home he tells some great stories about the whole week scotty playing against one of his best buddies winning in the match play uh some serious some i guess seriously interesting uh driver sort of um issues and then ultimately worked out in his favor he's playing great golf and obviously won the match play uh and then frankie and dan sat with kegan bradley uh who from what i understand he was fantastic yeah keegan was awesome he went on that stretch at the match play where he had played 11 consecutive matches that all resulted going down to 18. He didn't win any of them. Imagine getting to the 18th hole in match play 11 straight times and not winning a single match. Finally got his W this week, this past week. And he tells a funny story about a starburst in his pocket and how he was like he's super, you know, superstitious when it comes to like his son toss him a starburst and he put it in his pocket.

Then he was like, oh shit, I don't have the starburst in my pocket. And he was down like three put in his pocket. he comes back, wins a match. So yeah, he's super, super cool dude. He's the Barstall people's, the people's golfer 2.0 after Jim Renner. And he was awesome. And he told some stories that I like started tearing up over. I mean, he's just such a passionate guy.

He's on a carnivore diet. I'm like, why are you fucking eating just meat at this age, this stage in your career? And he's like, the whole thing. It was great. So I think people are going to enjoy it. We've kind of been all over the place with this episode because of scheduling. Usually we record on Mondays and Wednesdays.

And these interviews popped up on a day and time that we're not all usually around and we're doing stuff. Trent's down in LaBerge for the Barso Classic. I'm leaving for my bachelor party. So it was kind of like, I don't even think Trent's on the show today. So I mean, I think we're just all over the place a little bit, but two great interviews. I forgot about that. So we had teased last show that we were going to have Trevor Emelman on today. We ended up getting over an hour with Trevor.

That obviously makes sense to just put out on Tuesday. We're idiots. So there's no reason to put him out. and then we got Keegan and Sam Burns, who were phenomenal like we talked about. So those guys are in this show. Trevor will be in Tuesday's show talking about everything you could imagine and his beautiful voice and how articulate he is and how awesome and good of a friend he's become to us. So we got a lot of stuff coming up like Frankie said. So without further ado, we got Sam Burns.

We got Keegan Bradley.
