Hey, 4Play listeners, you can find us every Tuesday and Thursday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Foreplay, I present my Barstool Sports. We are back and we have the entire squadron today. It's a Monday as we are recording big week, Roy McRoy won for what feels like the first time in a very long time, just because he's so raw and honest and out there. And he was crying at the Ryder Cup a few weeks ago. and then all of a sudden he's winning and he's lovable the whole time yet it feels like he's going through stuff and then he just wins and now everyone's like who's he who's his coach was he what about these comments about i just need to be who i am and all the good stuff that comes to roy mackerel came yesterday pretty much in the best fashion um with the fact or um despite the fact that we couldn't even watch it so i think we're probably going to get into that that not a single minute of the golf coverage could be viewable until 5 p.m. Eastern and then even then you could

wouldn't really watch it because they were showing the Champions Tour playoff and they were doing split screens. And it was a complete shit show of a day, which we're going to get into again. But gentlemen, hello, how are we doing, how we feel? And how excited are we about Rory? And what's up? How are you guys? I feel great. I'm doing well.

And I'm very excited that Rory McElroy won again. I mean, I know I've talked a lot on this podcast about maybe being the number one Rory fan on the show. I think that I am. and, you know, it's interesting to hear him say, his comments afterwards were fascinating. Him just saying that, like, I'm Roy McElroy, basically. I don't need to be tweaking my swing or chasing distance like he talked about at the players. Him just basically starting to understand what we have all been saying about him since he burst on the scene all those years ago, being like, he's the most raw, talented guy since Tiger.

I think there's no doubt about that. Maybe there can be some arguments made, but I think, Rory is the number one guy in terms of talent on a golf course. And we've been telling him that for over a decade now. And it weirdly sounds like he's just starting to figure that out, which is really interesting. And if it works, like it clearly worked at the C.J. Cup this weekend where he's like, I'm Rory. I'm Rory. I'm Rory McElroy and I have all the talent in the world. And then he just wins.

Like I hope, I hope that this is the start of a new era for Rory, where he is just like, my game is good enough to win every single week. I don't have to do anything, but be myself. That'd be amazing if this is the start of a new Rory McElroy. Do you think Rory and Spieth are in a league of their own outside of Tiger Phil of just the most fascinating players in golf, the biggest draws, putting asses in the seats, the guys that'll make you flip the channel and you have to watch golf? Do you think those two are in a league of their own because I do?

I think even though they're not necessarily. number one or number two. And JT is definitely up there. And Rom, but I don't think Rom, JT, DJ, Morikawa, I don't think they have the pure intrigue, the I have to flip on TV and watch these guys play golf

like Rory and Jordan Speeth do. Bryson's at that level, I think. Oh, I still say no on that. Maybe it's for different reasons, but you turn on the channel when Bryson's leading a golf tournament. It takes over social media. in a way, and also Patrick Reed, right? Patrick Reed, for other reasons, when he's doing something, everyone's like,

holy fuck, here we go, what's he going to do in this celebration? What's he going to say? What's he going to say when he gets interviewed? Like, those guys are at, obviously, I'm going to take Patrick Reed out of that. He gets that style of, he gets that reaction when he's doing something horrible. Bryson DiChanbo gets that reaction. I was going to say, when he like fluffed his lie and everyone's like, oh, Henny's leading the tournament, I got to see this shit.

Yes. Which happens, I guess, like 80% of the time. I think there's something about You see a screenshot of a leaderboard And you see a Rory or Speed there I just think you're like Oh, I got to fucking see that Yeah

Does part of that have to do with the quote unquote drought that each of them have had Over the course of their career Because like we saw the flashes of Rory Obviously and Jordan Spieth early on And then there was just sort of that Rory's been consistently like Okay through most of it

Speath fell off for a couple years But like there's something about watching Someone that you know has that level of talent and isn't always able to harness it, but then when they can't harness it, it feels like a different thing than everything else. I think it's a tiger effect in the sense that you know what they used to be able to do and you want to see it again, right?

I think the drought is exactly what leads to it. Because for me, I want to see Tiger. When Tiger won the Masters, that was like my first time being like an actual conscious sports fan, being able to watch him win the Masters. I was too young in the early days. I felt like I wasn't into golf as much when he was winning when he was younger. and like so like you want to be able to experience that stuff and I feel like you don't it's that saying you don't know what you have until it's gone you don't think about that stuff while Rory's winning while Speed is winning and then they go on for years without doing anything and you're like holy fuck I'm I kind of miss I didn't pay attention when they were doing it five six years ago you know what I mean I want them to do it again and when they show these little glimpses of hope and these glimpses of like oh my god Rory's back you're like whole shit we're about to see this again we're about to see another great golfer

go on a tear. That's at least how I think. When I see Rory charging down the leaderboards, I'm like, uh-oh, we're about to see another guy that's going to make a run for Tiger's fucking Major's record. Like that's all, that's the only thing I was think about. I think that's a huge part of it, especially right now. I think the drought and like, because as we've talked about many times, any player that appears on a PJ tour leaderboard,

you are looking for a reason for them to stand out and stick out and be different than the others. And a drought is a serious storyline. that also gives it historical context. Like if they can get through that drought, then all of a sudden we get hit with these stats. Like Roy McRoy, that was his 20th win. And then all these stats that came out about how he's one of six players, Byron Nelson, Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicholas, Tom Watson, Tiger Woods,

Rory McElroy, that have won 20 times of the PGA tour and four majors before turning 33. Like that historical context never even got brought up over the last few years because he just, when he's not winning, you lose sight. And then all of a sudden he pops up wins and you're like, oh, fuck, this guy's one of the all-time grades. I mean, he has, I believe, the same amount or right around the same amount of wins as Phil Mickelson had before he turned 33. But Phil had zero majors and Rory has four and he's been stuck at four for like seven years. So all of that, like you're saying, Frankie, all of that when all of a sudden he's on a leaderboard and they start hitting you with those stats, right?

When it's somebody who don't know who they are, they're not as big of a name, it's like, oh, he's searching for his first tour victory and he's from, you know, uh, Indiana and you're trying to like give it a little bit of intrigue and that's a cool story. But then when they hit you with like, oh, he's trying to join Byrne Nelson and Ardle, you're like,

holy fuck what is going on here. So I do think that's a huge part of the intrigue. Yeah. Rory is also there's a, those list of guys that we say Tiger, Rory, Jordan Speath, even like DJ Markow, there, they are like the teams of PGA tour, right?

Like you have, like, we are, fans of those guys. And we always talk about, especially after the Ryder Cup, how it's insane that as golf fans, we just watch week to week and we like get excited no matter who wins, right? It's just, oh, like the CJ Cup and fucking Zach Johnson won. And we're like, yay, like, there's no caring about who wins in PGA Tour. Like, we don't have teams. We don't have allegiances. But there is like, when a Rory McElroy wins, when a Jordan Speed wins, it has that, like you could, like, Trent is a fucking Rory. Macarroy fan. He's able to back that guy. He's excited when he does well. So there is something about that too, where these guys are so big that they're like their own team. There's only a couple of them, but they make off so much more exciting when they do succeed. Yeah, but I feel like on a person to person level, even though there's no aggregate on the team, like you do root for, like yesterday, who were you rooting for? Like, were you rooting for Morikawa to like post the lowest score and still win? Were you rooting for Rory to hold on? Did you like Ricky? You know, like I feel

So like mentally you start pulling for the same guys week over week, even though you're not like wearing the colors of the islanders. No, I know. It's just like you just riled off three names that happened to be at the top of the leaderboard. We just root for whoever's at the top. Like there's no allegiance is week to week. I didn't, on Thursday I wasn't thinking I want Rory McElroy to win this week. I think, I think he'd be the only, there's like four or five guys that you'd think about that.

And Rory's one of them. Like, you'd think that way for Rory. And I would say on Sunday, like if Rory made a put to. hold the one shot lead. I wasn't like, yes, right. Yes. I was like, man, yes. The guy just saw Dave Port and I walked out of a pizza place. Just goes, yes. This is awesome. I think about that guy. Shout out to that guy. Where the fuck was he? Old Forge. Old Forge, Pennsylvania, I think it was. Yeah, Old Forge. It was like the pizza capital of the world. We were going from pizza place to pizza place. And the same dude kept following us

from place to place. And every time he walked out, you just heard in the background of this, a herd of people. I mean, thousand people. or standing outside this piece of place and you just heard in the background this guy go yes this is awesome just to himself just fucking yeah having a day man yeah he saw the guy from the internet in real life and he couldn't fucking believe his eyes and i don't think like unless if roar if you're one of the biggest rory fans of war like trent is like maybe he had that reaction but i think the average golfer watching it's like you kind of a rooting for the ricky comeback story you're rooting for morikawa because he's kind of dominating and rooting for roar it's like when good thing you know you're kind of you're

almost just you're Rob Lowe with like the NFL hat on. You're just wearing the PGA tourlo's. Sports. You're just like sports, baby. Let's go. Even though you don't, I guess, pick them out on Thursday, I feel like everybody's got a mental stack of who you like more than others from top first player in the world to like 100. Do you not feel that way?

Like as it gets to Sunday, like I just prior to like, oh no, that's a guy I like. that the guy I don't like. But it's not, it's so much more gray than any other sport. Like if the, if the Islanders are playing against someone, in no part is there a gray area. It's just like, I want your team to die. I want to slit your throats. I want any, I don't care if the refs cheat. I don't care if there's horrible calls.

I want my team to win. And when you're watching the PG, it's like, oh, yeah, kind of like that guy a little more than the other. And oh, that guy made an eagle. That was great. And you're just sort of like, you're just kind of bouncing around through the coverage. And you don't have this clear. black and white allegiance to like a player outside of like tiger woods for us I feel like but it's kind of a blessing in disguise where you get to just enjoy golf and I guess it's hard to compare golf

to every other sport and we always try and do that but like I do the rider cup really just changes my my brain in a lot of ways right bryson and then just now the team aspect like it just I love the idea of waking up and saying we need to win this today I love that with golf and I felt that a little bit with Rory. Like you see him making the charge and you're like, oh man, like I want Rory to win today. Even though, like you mentioned, Ricky would have been a good story. Collinor, Kyle, obviously adding to his list would have been a great story. But Rory's just like that team guy where it's like, I want fucking Rory to win today. Wake up, watch golf Rory wins. And that's without even putting money on the Barclos sports book. Like gambling definitely adds to that because like you have your guys

from Thursday to Sunday. But yeah, I just think that there's a limited amount of guys that you really can say like, all right, we're going into a tournament. This is my guy. And when he does win, it has that like team win feel. Rory's one of those guys. I also just vividly remember 2014 and what it was like when he was winning back-to-back majors. And you just don't have guys winning. Like, it's always a different guy, it seems like these days. And it's been like that forever where, oh, this guy won that major and a different guy won that major. When you have a guy winning multiple majors in a row, it's just, it's so much different and it's so much fun where you finally have a guy who has somehow tamed this game of golf and is so good and so interesting and so charismatic that you just want to see him do well.

And I would, I'd kill to have that Rory back just for a little bit. If he could win a major, win a couple, just, I don't want to get too crazy, but it's just so much fun when you have a guy like that in the sport because he is so interesting. He makes those comments and he does have all the talent in the world. It's just a lot of fun when a guy who's the whole package puts it all together and wins. Would you rather Rory win or Purdue lose to Iowa? That was really mean that you brought that up. You know what's the full package? Owens Mixers.

They have a full package. We're going to 10 minutes, about 12 minutes, 13 minutes into the show. We're going to do our first ad reads. I know why I said the losers in hot. It might have been a cold open kind of where we just ripped through for 13 minutes. We haven't talked about Owen's mixtures yet. We're going to talk about them right now. They've got the transfusion cans in front of their faces right there.

Frankie and Trent do live from New York. you can pour that in with your favorite liquor of choice. Vodka is a great pair for the transfusion. Paloma, if you're lurch, you get the grapefruit and lime going. They got mint cucumber lime. They got margarita mix. They've got GoPuff where you can get same-day delivery. Amazon, if you're not familiar with that, where they'll deliver it next day shipping,

Owensmixers.com, you can go check out public, CVS, figure out all the local stores where you can get it in retail store locator they call it on their website, Owensmixers.com. Go pick it up. pour it in with your favorite liquor, or you can drink it, you know, virgin if you like, that's totally fine. We're not saying you have to drink with alcohol. If you do like alcohol, you don't want to drink alcohol straight.

You probably want to pour it in with a delicious mixer and create a cocktail. Owens Mixer is the way to do that. The transfusion is my favorite cocktail. That's why we whipped up a drink, but they got all kinds of other options as well. So go check out Owens Mixers. A big thanks to them for all that they do.

Yeah, I mean, Rory too. I think Rory and Spieth, the more I think about it, the two of them are probably the most, open and honest, it feels like, when they go through their interviews, or at least of the big, big names, they're up there. And I think that that makes it more personal when they're in contention. You know, like you know you're going to get amazing sound bites from them. And Rory, when he was speaking yesterday, when he was doing his post round interview, it stuck out to me that, you know, a lot of guys are just trying to get through the interview. It feels like, right, like you're just

literally, you're just trying to actually formulate words so that you could say I did the interview. Rory, it feels like he's genuinely trying to answer the question. Like he wants to give you a legitimate, real answer. And that came off so much yesterday, but he was deeply thinking through. Like, what is the honest way to answer this? And then he would answer. And he's like, I just need to be Rory. And Rory is enough.

And that, you know, when you think about that of him trying to change his swing, he admitted that he was chasing Bryson a little bit, or at least the Bryson effect, you know, a year or so ago. he changed he had like Pete Cowan so he's changing his swing coach he gets compared to Tiger all the time which we've done multiple times already and he's like not trying to be Tiger he's not trying to be he just like needs to be him and that that's totally fine and enough and him revealing that to us again I just think it makes it so personal when he wins a tournament when you shouldn't have any personal connection to this guy who's a megastar like Roy McRoy works like he's or walks like he's got you know

like a three foot long dick the way that he walks around the golf course. But he makes it that personal and makes it that enjoyable. I think Speed does that too when he kind of opens up all the time. I agree. His scatterbrain a little bit. Yeah. And I, like thinking through it, like to Frankie's point, I do agree,

Bryson's on that level of just like moves the needle on like social. But I think in terms of Speeth and Rory still are on like a level of their own with regards to just eyes coming into golf when they're at the top of the leaderboard. But I did think that was so interesting. of Rory's comments of just the self-doubt that golf creates, like when you're not winning and it rewards one person week after week. And like, confidence is so massive. And for Rory, who you think has all the confidence in the world,

the way he walks, the way he holds himself is still like, no, just like, if I just swing my swings and swing naturally, that level of play is good enough to win. And for him to maybe, I don't know, not truly believe that in the last couple of years, is like incredible to me. But we have seen him chase like Bryson or try to maximize distance or get a little bit more out of his game.

But I think like as the average golfer knows, like every time you try to do a little bit more, you usually suck. And so maybe a little bit of that resonates all the way up to the Rory's of the world. But his post game, his post play interviews are I think like the best in golf and they're always much watch.

Every time you see an Instagram post, a Twitter post, Rory. You're like, what did he say now? Because they're so insightful. They're very thoughtful. And to your point, Reg's, like, you can see that he's actually investing the time to give the answer, not just like, yep, no, didn't hit it.

I missed that put a little high on the high side on 16. As we go, you know, as they do, like, they rip through the highlights of the round and they just give those like three word, like bullet statements on each. He never does that. And so, yeah, probably him opening up. And then to Frankie's point, like when you see great. and then it goes away for a while. You just won it back so badly.

I hope he goes on a run. It would be awesome if he had just a tremendous year. Masters, man. If that guy can win the Masters, there's no outside, again, of, like, Tiger and occasionally feel, I don't know if there's a better storyline in all of golf than when he shows up to Augusta and he's playing well, and they show those clips of him behind the fucking cabin

on the 10th hole in the back nine when he blew it and shot like 81. 80, yeah, it was bad. And then he had the matchy, or the final round, Perry against Patrick Reed when the whole world was pulling for him. He didn't quite get it done there. It'd be his grand slam. He three putted two or something like that against Patrick Reed. There was like the chance where you were excited or he maybe stuffed one in for an eagle

chance. It was like four feet and just missed it. And you're like, oh, the mallet's going to let him down again. This is so sad. But yeah, there would be no better story in golf potentially without barring Tiger. Like if he were to take home the green jacket. If he gets a couple more wins leading into that and he's. playing well and you get all you get all the augusta hype going into that that is just as good as it gets

and again when he's that honest and real um question for you guys how many so obviously the number is um 20 wins for rory mackroy before the age of 33 and four majors uh how many wins and majors do you think tiger had before he was 33 oh fuck um all right hold on he was so he would have been 33 just the numbers there's the numbers are astronomical i'm i'm sure I'm going to say 55. Hold on, hold on. 33. What year was it in 33?

When he was 33, what year was it? It was, what, 12 years ago? Oh, that must have been about 2009, maybe? Oh, okay. So, yeah, so he's at 2008, 2009? Like 13, 14 majors. And how many wins? Just, I'm going to say 49.

No. Whoa. 60. I'm going to say 68. So per Justin Ray golf, who's our guy, 65 wins 14 majors before he was 33. Yeah, that's a different career. That's just, that's different. That's the career.

That's the career. Like, I know we talk about all the time. We don't have to talk about ad nauseum again, but like 300 years from now, a golf podcast is going to be talking about those numbers. You know what I mean? Do you also have a golf podcast in 300 years? Whatever form of Whatever the golf podcasting What do you think it's going to be?

I think you just put like a memory chip into your brain Just like downloads it It's crazy that we were alive During Tiger Woods I know again we talk about all the time But like that's insane Now going back to that point you just made So Tiger would you say 14 and 65 by 33

Did you say that Phil Mickelson had not won a major to that point and had how many wins? Phil had I believe 20 something as well. He was close to Rory but he had zero major. Dude, Phil... That is crazy. Something like...

If Tiger had like Phil's career on the backside, it's like... Something that's so overlooked is Phil not be able to get the major championship monkey off his back forever. It was the only thing people asked him for like seven years. And it was like in the 99 U.S. Open

with Payne Stewart when he like finished second. And then it would be a number. five years before he would win a major championship after that. Like that is. That's crazy. He had all those moments at Shinnecock when he was like right there and he like three putted or missed short putt on 17. All these majors just added up, added up, added up.

And then he finally broke through. I believe what? It was 2014 Masters when he made that putt and jumped, you know, to 20 feet in the air. But man, Phil Mickelson and that whole, like imagine living in that era when Phil, like, not living, we were through it, but when we were like being present and focused on the media and reacting to it all the time with social now. It would have been, it would have been deafening how often he just got churped. Meanwhile, this other guy, Tiger Woods, who was number one of the world, Phil was like number

two, was just winning majors by like 15 shots. That's not to be believed. I mean, like, I love Tiger, man, but he has had one of the worst 15-year stretches in the golf world. I mean, of all times, it's like, if he had Phil's career on the backside, post-33, I mean, he's the best player, like without question, he's the best player in the world. Yeah, a lot of bad stuff happened.

There's a couple hangups, but he's still, what, 65? So he still had 17 wins since then. Like, that's other people would kill for that career. Right. 17 wins in a major. I know. Phil was on tour for 11 years before he won a major championship. I was going to say, how is that possible?

But then we're talking about the other guy, and I know why that's possible. He must have been seeing Tiger in his dreams. You know what I mean? Just like, this guy won't get out of here. Get him the hell off the planet. Dude. From like 93, I mean, I got Phil in 1993 won the Buick Invitational of California. That was his first PG-Tor professional win.

And then he didn't win a major until the 2004 Masters tournament. So that 11-year stretch, he just didn't win a major championship. And he was Phil Mickelson. He won 20. I mean, he won 20. 22 PGA tour events before winning a major. That's probably got to be close to DJ numbers. Probably almost exact.

Yeah, I think that is very close to DJ numbers. And now he's got five. Yeah, I just saw a funny meme. Six. Six. He's got six. Keep forgetting he. Not forgetting, but it's like, I do that with Tiger too,

where I forget to add like the recent Masters he were. I'm just like, oh, yeah, it's Tiger. For a decade, we just said 14 majors, 14 majors. certainly had conversations where I refer to Tiger Woods as a 14-time major champion. Absolutely. It's just like it was ingrained in your brain that that's just how many he won. 14 was such an ugly number. I'm so glad we got to 15.

15 is way nicer. Way nicer. So Dustin Johnson has PGA Tour wins, 24 PGA Tour wins. And he's got one major championship. So Phil was essentially DJ's entire career, but he had never won a major. That stuff blows your mind. It's unreal. Unreal.

And then you think about these guys like Padrake Harrington popped up and he won three majors in two years. I mean, Kepka on a certain level. Like if he doesn't win again, he just showed up, dominated for a little bit, left. It was like three years. And he was like, that's my legacy. Right.

Golf season, you only have to beat 10% of the field. Like, I'm fine. I just had been. With that mindset, I just win. It was like three PJ championships. It was it's it's really something It's unbelievable It's just unbelievable some of those

Some of like what it takes and how people can't get over the hurdle And a major and boy It's it's um Rory anyways Rory's back Kind of I think This is also A golf tournament in October in Vegas So it's not like you know we're not

Sort of feels a little bit like when Speeth won earlier You know when it was like great that he won But it wasn't like he won the It wasn't the Masters This is almost like pre-s season, honestly, right now. Yeah. They're obviously wins, but, like, it feels, if you want to, like, rev the engine and start

to get in gear early in the season, you're playing a lot of these. If you don't, you know, the Zozo, it's like, but again, it's very much like, yeah, play where you want, play a little golf. If you play well, you collect, obviously a big paycheck, but it's tough to say, like, it's almost like Sam Sneed wins for these. Like, they're not. It don't feel so important. Oh, come on.

Morikawa's nipping at your heels. Like, that's a little different. The CJ Cup, I agree. Because it's, it was, you know, they have a, they bring in a lot of the top dogs. It's a huge purse. So, like, there's a good amount of players there. But it is always interesting when you, I'm on, like, Instagram. And one Instagram story is like Rory with a phenomenal quote holding the trophy.

The next one is Bryson de Shambos hitting a golf ball on a beach in the Bahamas. And you're just like, all right. He's like literally one guy that's ranked in the top 10 is on a beach. So it's clearly not the same thing as winning a major championship. And you could compare off that. A win is a win. You've got to beat Morikow. He had to beat Ricky.

He had to beat Keith Mitchell, who's played really good golf at times and was nipping there as well. So Rory, win. It's great for golf when he's back. What are you looking at him? Just how dominating Brooks was from 2017 to 2019. Scary. Absolutely scary. Back to back PGA championships, back to back U.S. opens.

Then he finished T2 in the Masters and then T4 in the open all in 2019. I mean, he almost just swept the board. He almost fucking swept the board. It's scary how close he was. ruining Tiger 2019 masters for us. He had a couple really good birdie looks down the stretch, and if those go in, it's just over.

Insanity. Absolutely insanity. And then 2020 is like a fake year. So, I mean, the guy's still like right there. He did this in 2019. Like, Brooks Kepka's still hot.

He still scared. No, totally. But if he doesn't, if he doesn't, like, win another major or whatever, which is obviously like very possible in some respects. Like,

he just showed up dominated and like left when you look at the history of golf, which is... Right, he was over in Europe for years and then just like came on to the shores and won four majors in no time. Right, got big, one and just said like, yeah, you only have to beat 10% of the field pretty much. So like golf's easy.

Had that mindset one and now it's over. He had to have, he must have gotten hypnotized or something. Something, he did something. That just, that can't just happen, especially in golf, where all of a sudden you are just dominant in the biggest events, that late. Well, look at Mollinari.

I mean, like, he showed up and left. Like, he's not even to be seen anymore. You know, and it was just here. But historically, there's going to be nobody compared to Brooks in terms of his age, in terms of his career trajectory. Like, for him to just show up one day. And I know, like, he had been around, like, whatever, but not in that way. And then to just win a bunch of majors, that's unheard of.

Unheard of. Dude, it's quite different clearly. But this streak, I just. looked up Johnny Miller because he had similar flashes where he just was he from September 1974 okay he pops up he wins and he won actually

a bunch of but from 1974 through 1976 okay he wins one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve thirteen fourteen fifteen fifteen times he wins from 1974 to

1976 he won the open championship by six strokes. He won the Phoenix Open by 14. He won the Kaiser International Open by 8. He won the Dean Martin Tucson open by 9. So during that stretch of those 15 wins, he had a win by 14, a win by 9, a win by 8, and he won a major championship by 6. Now, he clearly had other stretches where he won some tournaments too, but that stretch in the mid-70s from Johnny Miller is outrageous. In those tournaments, he won the Kaiser Sozay Open. What the What was that? And then the Dean Martin championship?

Well, that actually also, that thing that you listed off also separates Brooks because Brooks doesn't win regular tour events. Is there a Frank Sinatra classic that year? Probably. This is when all those like Ben Crosby, it was like the Bing Crosby, everything was like. There was a Bing Crosby classic. There was like the, um, the, the clam bake. The clam bake. That's right.

That's like the original, um, Pebble Beach growing. The AT&T Pebble Beach. Like, uh, yeah, the Bing Crosby was like that forever. Yeah. That's when, you know, Clint Eastwood was the young man still showing up. Still sitting there to this day. He's out there right now. That's why Johnny Miller was just all cocky on the, when he would be on air.

It was just like, no, my best is as good as anybody who's ever done it. And this is the way I'm going to talk to people. Oh, yeah. You can see where he's play it off your left foot. That's what I used to do. It's like, how does that not go in from 186 yards? You can see why he was such an asshole as a broadcaster where he's like, Like, anytime somebody would do the smallest thing wrong on a Sunday,

he'd be like, well, that's nerves right there, folks. It's like, dude, he's just a human being. I will say, I miss him. I mean, like, he was good. A good foil. A really good foil, because I loved making fun of him because he was such a dick. He was like, he literally thought it was impossible to miss a green from 230 yards. Because he was showing up to the clam bake and stealing everyone's food.

It was crazy. The guy couldn't miss. ORA. ORA provides digital security protection to keep your online finances, personal information, and tech safe from online threats. ORA is an all-on-one protection from identity theft,

Big time. Yeah. I thought my Twitter got hacked when we were out at the Rider Cup and it turned out to just be my dad liking all tweets and he responded because I tweeted out a link and a picture of the slaughter by the water hoodies and you, Frankie Borell, your Twitter account, sent me three thumbs up and I was like, what's this all about? And well, when we were doing Islander streams at the Coliseum, I would use my phone to stream live from the chair and then I would use my dad's phone with me signed into it to tweet after

goals and I thought I'd like I thought I definitely logged out of it but then all of a sudden I just started seeing all these things started getting liked and response I'm like oh my god I'm being hacked your own tweets were getting my own like people thought I was liking my own tweets it was crazy it was just your dad being supportive my last 100 tweets had a little hard underneath it I'm like what is happening weird hacking what a weird hacking to like just write like wholesome responses to Trent and then also just like my own stuff. Turned out it was my dad. So there you go.

We mentioned Johnny Miller, you know, senior, senior golf, wild move by just golf in general yesterday to have this, you know, the CJ Cup, this beautiful golf course summit club.

And I saw a lot of great footage, drone footage, pictures. They're hyping it up. They had a great leaderboard. Obviously, Rory and Ricky going at it in the final group. You had Kalamorakawa made a run. You had JT yesterday. It was like eight or nine under. And people were freaking out because not only was it not on, you know, a major network on TV.

Not only was it not on golf channel. It was, even if you had streaming services, You could not pull up a website. You couldn't go anywhere and get actual footage, live footage, of the golf until after 5 p.m. Easter time when they went live. And then even when they went live, they were like, oh, we got to actually follow up the conclusion of the whatever the fuck senior celebration event out here where the mechanic was playing, which I always do love watching the mechanic. But people were freaking out that you finally get a great leaderboard. This is why you're a golf fan.

This is what makes you tune in as we turned on and discussed Atlanta. earlier, Rory Macroy, these big names. They finally get it, which is not easy to do on the PJA tour to get good names going at it, weekend and week out. And you couldn't even fucking watch it. It was insane that you couldn't watch it. Turn it on. You got to give the people what they want.

The cameras are rolling. You just got to push it somewhere. Push it somewhere. It's got to live somewhere. Right. That footage has to be seen. What are they doing with that footage? Like at that moment.

Why are they not putting it out to the world? That seems illegal. It really is one of the. bigger mistakes, and I think it's a mistake that, I don't know if it's old school or like traditional television media, the mistake that they make is they're just not giving the people what they want, and specifically golf. Like, just we want to see the best leaderboard that's happening right now. And for whatever reason, this isn't the first time also that like a golf broadcast hasn't gone the way that the public wants it. It seems like they do it consistently when

it's like Frankie saying, just put it on. It's really that simple. You have a great product that people want to see and you're not letting them see. There's a billion channels. Find one of them. Just put it on TV. We have fucking old Luis knitting some socks until she gets arthritis on channel 75. Like, let's just throw the golf on there. What's going on? Put it on a channel. And they're putting out clips, right? If like Ricky hits one tight, they're putting that clip out. So they're saying we have cameras. We're actually using those cameras to film the play. We're just not putting it anywhere for you to consume it and to witness it, which is outrageous. So people are, of course, losing their minds.

I don't, like, if they want to consider and try to build this wraparound season and they put these mandates in place where players have to add a new tournament, they have to play certain events so that entices them or that almost requires them to add tournaments like the CJ Cup, then you can't not put it on fucking television. I don't think, I don't understand how they're benefiting from them not having it on television. I can't, how is that a business model? I don't understand what they're doing. A bunch of dinosaurs that don't know what the fuck they're doing.

That's what's going on. Imagine something like that. A bunch of suits. Imagine something like that happened in a barstool. I don't know what the comparison would be, but like just not putting the number one thing that people want to see onto like a stream. I mean, Dave would just kill everybody. And it's amazing. Like other leagues and other networks just figure it out.

I was watching Red Zone last night. Obviously that Cowboys game was electric and you're watching Red Zone. They have the conclusion of the Cowboys game. And then Hanson makes an announcement saying we can no longer show the United States viewers this game on this channel. So go over to CBS. It's going to be playing there for all the national coverage. All the international people stay here. It's as simple as that.

They figured out a way to just get everyone to another channel to watch the end of an amazing football game. But the PGA tour doesn't even show the game. They don't show any of it. Not just any, they don't show any of this stuff. They don't have any urgency to have people watch their sport. What's going on there? And then we get like, we have to fucking. deal with people about credentials and stuff.

Like, we're trying to show off your sport. You don't even want to show off your own sport. What are the fuck of the PGA tour doing? I want to laugh at them in their face. I want them to sit there. I want to laugh at them. I want to do like a hearty laugh in front of the entire fucking decision-making crew. I want to go into a room and laugh at them.

And it wasn't even like they're repurposing or saving it for another thing. It wasn't like at 7 p.m. They're going to start from the beginning. Those first like nine holes are just gone. Gone. Like they're just, they don't exist that they didn't play the tournament. You're like, what are you talking about? How can that be a real thing?

That's not, I imagine if they just started the football game seven minutes left in the third quarter. And I like, yeah, this is the only footage that you're going to get. You'd be, it'd be anarchy. There'd be a revolution. Like, you just can't have that. And yet, as golf fans, that's what they gave us yesterday. It was shocking. It makes me embarrassed to be a golf fan.

The fact that the sport that we like to watch isn't even on TV, right? Like that to me is embarrassing. I sometimes think about that with the Islanders. They're on MSG plus plus two sometimes. I'm like, this is an embarrassing night to be an Islander fan. They can't even find themselves on MSG, MSG plus, or MSG plus two. They're on some other channel tonight because we just couldn't get on TV. I agree with you.

Like, you just have to somehow find yourself on TV. Like, what are we watching here? MSG varsity. Am I watching two high school teams going together? I don't understand what's happening here. This is the fucking PGA tour. The NHL was on like ESPN, the Cup finals, and that is just so gross. It's just on cable.

It's like nobody cares about this thing. But I agree with you. I think that's what's going to happen now, right? It's a little bit of pride. Dude, I want to say like last year, I want to say the NBA or the NHL finals were on like NBC Sports Network and people were, people text you being like, what the fuck is NBC Sports? It's like they have fucking like a rodeo. They're finishing up a rodeo coverage on NBC sports.

And then next up, they're like, Stanley Cup final. You're like, oh, man. But at least they figure out to put it on TV. The PJ tour would just be like, you know what? We're not going on the road. video channel. We're just going to show it in the third period once our other coverage is over. Right. Do they just, do they view it as we've got our ad dollars? We don't, I don't, we don't care what we put on. Like, is there's no incentive to put on the best possible product?

Well, then there's like, then the tiers of the, those advertisements are the same. Like, whether it's on the Champions Tour or the PGA Tour, it's like, yeah, those are just dollars in. It's not like, A content, B content. It's rated differently because, yeah, it's crazy not to show it. And as a, as a golfer, I agree with Frankie's points quite a bit. that like it's upsetting when it's oh no yeah you want to watch golf it's it'll start on the 13th hole on an obscure channel and you're like this sucks all right download peacock all right and then steal your parents pass code and then you can catch the last five hole or yesterday was oh you want to watch the golf get a flight to Vegas that's the only way you're going to be able to

watch it is if you actually go to the event which is insane dude it feels like if I'm trying to watch like my high school hockey team has a big game or something and you're like all right there's got to be a live stream somewhere they're putting the best players in the world on that level of like people are you're looking at twitter what's what is somebody giving me a link on twitter people are tweeting at us like all right rigs tell me there's somewhere else i can watch the golf like now do you times in my life it's only rory versus rickie it's only rory versus rickie only rory versus rick how many times in my life i've googled how to watch the golf today that's just unacceptable how many times have you guys done that all the time

Golf TV coverage today. You like type it into Google. It's always like a golf.com article being like where to watch and how to watch it. It's like, I mean, let me just figure out how to watch this sport. Just two weeks ago, I was able to watch Bryson hit golf balls to the moon at a world-long drive competition. Why can't they figure out how to stream the CJ Cup with Rory and Ricky? And then every year it's another streaming service. First, it's on NBC Sports and now it's on something else.

It's on ESPN Plus. You get that with the package. It's like just figure out how to make it easy. It's 2021. You know how easy it is to do things in 2021? It's so easy. Right. They need someone.

I don't have to stick my credit card in the machine anymore. It just like, it just like catches it from my wallet. Put it in the general area and it goes beeping. But I can't watch golf on TV. You're watching golf on TV when they had the clam bake. That's how easy it is. You just need somebody in that room to go, we want to, I want to show the golf. And it's going to be a revolutionary idea in that room.

And then just work backwards from there on how you can show the golf when it's You think it was easier to watch golf 40 years ago on TV? Sometimes, yeah. Maybe they didn't show as much, but, like, I feel like it was probably just on, like, the major TV channels. When, like, Arnold Palmer was stepping up to the T, they had it on TV. Like, they just think five channels in the world and one of them was going to have the golf. And, like, as much as I love the streaming option and, like, I can watch it from my computer, whatever, I still would love to be able to watch it on TV all the time.

Yeah. Yeah, like, with the new remotes, now you can, like, you know. It's like, I don't know, voice to find the channel. You can just say golf. But then sometimes it gives you some obscure link and there's just no connection to the actual PGA tour. It would be nice if that just – like when you – football, it's like it gives you the options on Sunday.

You can't watch them. With this, it's brutal. Yeah, you can't find anything. I agree with you. Simpler times, there might have just been one channel and not actually have a golf. And they have a channel called the golf channel. Right.

How do they not even have like an NFL Sunday ticket or an NBA league pass? where you can just like pay $150 a year and you just have this designated streaming service and that's just what you do. That's just it. I'd pay that in a hard. They have PGA Tour Live, but it like is Thursday and Friday and then they, you're completely at the will of who they choose for the feature groups and then on the weekends. It wouldn't have helped you yesterday at all.

They need to revamp PGA Tour Live basically and be like, I want to be able to watch the raw coverage of whatever the fuck I want. Like that's why I'm paying. I'll pay $150,000. I don't care. I want to be able to watch, I'm able to pick Kevin Kisner or Joel Damon or Pat Perez or Max Homer. I want to be able to just watch them play their round of golf.

Put a fucking microphone in their goddamn golf bag. And I want to hear everything that Joe Griner and Max Homa say to each other. And I want to watch every shot that they hit the entire round on Caribbean shoot 77 or 67. I want to watch everything. And the fact that 99% of the time, like 99% of the time Kevin Kisner plays professional golf, there is not even a single option to watch it outside of being there in person. Charge us, whatever you want to charge us, right? And then show every single swing that ever happens in the PGA Tour season, right?

Like just show it on PGATorLive.com. That is where you're going to charge us $120 a year and then that's it. Then also, for the majors, for the big tournaments, put it wherever else you want it. NBC, Golf Channel, but it has to live on PGATor.com for the people that want to pay extra that they'll never miss a swing, okay? No matter what. I've got an idea. This extension of like the pit plan,

getting people, getting brands of golfers, very like, I don't know, well sought after that you actually want to listen. You talk about Homna, Kisner, etc. Create like a RevShare program where you can subscribe to golfers, where you pay,

and then they're just miced up and you just listen to everything and watch everything that Kisner does, HOMNA, and you can just pay for insights into that. That would be amazing. So you, then you reward the golfers with, like, more subscribers as they work Thursday through Sunday. That would be insane because I would definitely subscribe to my favorite golfers. And actually, like, if I could hear every part of their conversation and you, whatever,

sign some BS legal form, like, I don't care if they curse or say whatever. So I think that would be awesome. So it's like only fans for golf. I don't think. Right. Yeah. I don't think the golfers are going to sign up for that. I think so.

Dude, if they have to sign the fucking, I think it's an only fans for golf, right? $5 extra. this week to listen to Kevin Kisner and watch every swing. And he gets like 80% of that and then like the PGA tour gets 20. Dude, and then he should be able to pick his broadcast team and it could be us that we're just the broadcast team. I would also just watch Kevin Kisner's golf. I would watch the raw footage.

You think they ever have conversations like this at the PG tour? Are they ever creative? Are there, is there anyone's brains? No, because sometimes what they do is if they do start a broadcast late, they will tape delay it and start at the beginning and they're like look we did it and it's like fuck you i have twitter i already know what happened you ever see click yeah you know when he stops he stops it and you just smacks the fucking guy right across the face yeah i want to do that to every single person that works for pgator a lot just stop time like rip a fart in their mouth and just smack them

it's just like the movie click dude because they're fucking stupid it does it does seem that there is there has to be a level of complacency with, we've already got our ad dollars. It doesn't matter what we show. That would be so funny. We have no incentive to show necessarily what people want to see. So you guys, you get what you get.

We don't care. Like, that is not how a major sport should operate. Because I think so much shit in my soup. I think if we're going to prioritize, like how they operate, I think that's just at one. I don't know.

Frankie just said. Stacey, Stacey, somebody's shit in my suit? I'm just now picturing. Frankie like a little meme walking into PGA tour headquarters

hitting pause and just going office to office setting up a GoPro on each office and leaving and just seeing the chaos and still and then when they get mad at me I'm like if you see the movie click

they're like oh yeah something has to change because it's been like this for a long time and I don't understand I just got to figure it out just you just got to figure it out we have to figure out shit

all the time in our lives they don't figure it out over there We figured out the best T-Time app. It's called Barstall Golf Time. Barstall Golf Time. Get it. It's reviews. It is discounted T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T. It is a plethora of options for T-T-T-T-Ematter, no matter where you're at.

You type in a zip code. Do you like that word, Frankie? I did. And I also want an updated list. Maybe we can get one from our team that's running this app. But I want to know who's in the lead right now with the point system. You know what I mean? We need to start updating the people on the point.

on the point system. I want to know who is leading the Barstool Golf Time app. I need to know that because that person, I think, is coming to Borrellis for a dinner and maybe some golf at a local golf course with me. So I need to know who's in the lead. Who am I rooting for? How many reviews does that person have? If you're going to book a tea time, why not use the one that gives you rewards and has the best reviews on it? You know what I mean?

Just do it. And we'll start getting shout out. We'll give shoutouts to people. We need a list. I need to know who's the list. We need to know. We'll figure it out. Jake just giving a thumbs up.

Thumbs up. We're going to find out who the list is. We are running a sweepstakes for a chance to attend the 2021 Barstool Classic Championship. You go to Barstoolgolf time.com. The winner is going to receive attendance for you and one guest at the Barst Classic Championship. Airfare for two, accommodations for two, around for two on the cradle, which will be Sunday, around for two on one of the Pinehurst courses. Frankie, again, it's thrown in a little dinner at Borrellys. You get all kinds of good experiences that you can win by being one of the leaders when it comes to using the Barstool Golf Time app.

You get discounted merch. You get discounted at T-Times by dominating, by leaving reviews, by posting videos for reviews, by booking more and more tea times. So go to Barstoolgoth Time.com. Find out more. Enter the 2021 Barstool Classic Championship sweepstakes. Yeah, golf coverage sucks. I would love to figure out how we could do one of these simulcast things, the Manning Cass, how we could come up with a version of. that for golf.

That would be awesome. I mean, we, yeah, we've gone live before for the endings, I feel like, right? Have we done that for the masters? But, like, you have to do it where people can watch the golf simultaneously with you. Right. Yeah. It's a no-brainer. Which I don't know the legality behind that.

I'm actually pretty intense. They have no creativity. I would say, yeah, a simulcast with us is like 500 years down the road at the pace of their movement. We need the dinosaurs to be extinct by that, you know? Jeff Shacklefers need to go for a nap. Right. It's just, it's impossible. Yeah, I don't think we're getting there.

Did you guys watch Squid Game? I haven't finished it yet. I can't watch. It looks too scary. It's not scary, but it is depressing. Oh, my God, it's so depressing. And that's worse. I don't need that shit.

Right. That's how I felt about Black Mirror. People were like, oh, you got to watch Black Mirror. You got to watch Black Mirror. I watched two episodes. And I was like, I don't need sadness, poured into my life. Oh, I do.

Nope. Drives me. You don't need any more sadness, Frankie. You don't know how my brain works. Did you hear it before when I tried to throw that dig at Trent about Iowa? I said, instead of saying, would you rather Iowa win? My brain went to, would you rather Purdue lose to Iowa? It's such a weird first thing to think of, like the team losing as opposed to the team winning.

Fucking strange. That one has got me rattled since I said that. And I have, I've watched six episodes. I'm glad you got that off your chest. I'm not necessarily always opposed to. I don't have to always watch Ted Lassall. though I did finish that. Fuck Nate.

And I just want to say, fuck Nate. Fuck that guy. But Squid Games, I'm slowly working my way through it. I can't watch more than two episodes in a sitting because I just, the feeling in my gut once I get done watching is just pure misery. Anyway, I have a couple things to say about Squid Game. Why do you want that? What's the point of that? Why do you want to watch that?

Well, you want to know how it ends, right? The concept is incredibly interesting. You want to know, it's not like, to me, what you're saying is how I respond to people when they watch scary movies. Why would you want to put yourself through a moment where you just want it to be over? See, in Squid Game, I don't want to. And my issue with scary movies, too, though, is that then it affects me for days. Like, I have bad dreams now. I think I'm, I can't walk around like the fucking sidewalk without thinking somebody's going to jump out and stab me.

I don't want that. I'm trying to live. The more I can live in La La Land, the better. I think that's like the goal. Squid Game is actually worse than that because it starts to make you look at society being like, what's all this about? Who are these people in? my life. What would they actually think? Like, what would they actually do? It's a lot, man.

Now, saying all that, I want to do, and we need a budget. So I need a movie company or maybe Netflix or one of these big companies that need to start, they need to budget and finance my idea. But it's a squid games of golf. You know what I mean? Yeah. Like, it's essentially all of our hypotheticals we've ever come up with. Like, would you actually do it if it came down to a bullet in the back of your head? Because that's what squid game is rigs. It's essentially that five foot put and if you miss it you get a bullet in your head that's exactly what the right away is it's it sounds fascinating i don't i don't i you know a liability we'll have to get the legal team on that obviously you're not going to die but like i want to do a spoof can we do a spoof of squid

games or is that lame i want to do a golf spoof of of squid games and i want to i want to film it right like so my idea you guys haven't seen the show but no i've seen it yet but after i see it i'm totally on board for something the show the show starts off with this dude so basically all these gamblers that are in massive debt, they get a chance at playing a game to win a ton of money. And the way that they started is they find these people that are like in the slums and their lives are fucking on their last legs. Down bad. Down bad. And they give them this game to play where you throw this paper thing at another paper thing. And if you flip it, you get $50,000. But if you don't, you get slapped in the face and you get to try again, right? They just keep slapping

this guy, slapping this guy. So I would love to do a swoop. I'm like Trent trying to get out of a bunker and when he doesn't. Like, basically we walk up on Trent. This is my idea for Squid Games golf. We walk up on Trent, he's stuck in a bunker. Or he's just down bad. The guy hasn't broken 110 years. He can't figure it out.

He's like moping around the golf course. We walk up to him and we have this game where we're like, hey, man, if you get out of this bunker, we'll give you $10,000. But if you don't, I'm going to smack you across the face. And Trent's trying to get out. And I'm smacking him like fucking crazy. I'm smacking him until he can't breathe anymore. Finally, he gets out of the bunker, and now he's in Squid Games, right?

Like, we give him this option. Maybe we give him a little coin. Like, oh, we flick him a coin. I'm thinking of all the shots, right? We flick him a coin, and on the coin says where to go, it's a certain golf course, and that's the Squid game. Now we have all these new games at this golf course. If you make the putt, you go out onto the next game. If you don't, you die.

I think there's certainly a market for it because. Is it lame? There was a golf social media account, and I wish I could remember right now, who did the next Squid Game challenge is getting out of a bunker in one. And I got tagged in it more times than I did the clip. They made a clip? No, no, no. They just did.

They had like a screenshot from the show. They memed it. I got tagged in that more than I've been tagged in anything in my entire life. And people would probably like to see it. Well, man, I saw a fucking funny meme the other day that I think came from Old Roe Golf. And basically the scene from Squid Game is it's red light green that one, two, three. And in the episode, not to give away any spoilers, but one of the guys falls as, as it's like red, like green, that one, two, three.

And then someone's like holding on to him. It's an amazing moment. So good. So, like, they're fucking not moving. And the meme was the person dangling. And it said quitting golf. And then the person that was holding him, it said birdying 18. And it's just the funniest meme I've ever seen because it's so true.

You're so close to never playing the game ever again. But that final hole, when you just string it together, you hit a good drive, you hit a green, you make the put. You're like, I'm coming back to this fucking thing. And I'm going to dominate it. Man, I laugh for 10 minutes when I saw that meme. Riggs, I actually think you should watch it the more we're talking about it. I think you would like it. Yeah, you would.

But you have to watch it in Korean with American subtitles. You cannot watch it with the American dubbed over voice. It's awful. You see the mouth, it's the opposite of like, you see the mouths moving. And then it's like, hello, my name is Ryan. It's like you can't do that. You just got to get used to reading. Is this a movie or a series?

It's a show. It's a show. Seven. seven episodes? I think it's nine. Nine? So you're committing nine hours. All right,

I'm going to watch it. I'm not happy about it, but I'm going to watch it. Oh, you'll love it, dude. Once they get into the games, you're not going to be able to stop,

dude. And a big part of games. A lot of blood. A lot of blood. A lot of blood. And a big part of it is just, then you're in on the jokes. Like,

I'm sure you've seen Squid Game memes and you're like, I don't know what the fuck that is. It's fun to be in, you know, part of the culture. Maybe we'll make a school. I didn't even get to laugh at Frankie's meme that he saw because I don't even know what the fuck's going. Oh, dude.

I think to really make your idea work, we got to kill people. No, it's just a spoof. I don't want to actually do it. I don't want to kill people. I think there's definitely some overlap in like the Barstool Classic. Like you could let people somehow risk something. And if they miss like the fair way, they just, they pay double. They're like out of the Barclos.

The idea of slapping people. Frankie wants to slap somebody. I've tried to slap people twice on this podcast. What if you got like a group of. in the group of PGA Tour Live people. That's right. Well, if you got, like, a group of guys at the Corn Fairy Tour, people who, like, are just about to lose their tour cards, and you put them on an island. And if they lose the game, they just lose their tour card.

See, that's, that's a, I wish we could do something like that. Right. We don't own tour cards, which sucks, but if we did that be a really good. I actually really like that idea. Then the stakes are real. You don't have to, I guess you don't have to kill people, but you have to make it where their life does change. I'm glad we can agree on that. that we're not going to murder anyone.

I'll tell you this. Well, if we could offer the option of killing people, it would make the show way better, for sure. Yeah. I'm trying to think of like what's that. What's basically that killing them, but not. That's basically what Jason.

That's essentially it. You have to have a real effect on their life. Not just Franks. Got them a sponsor. What if we did a squid game round of golf where, like this is like our new game, right? and essentially we get to call out the word. Now, this is me just rolling off the top of the head.

So who knows where this is going to go. But essentially, we get to call out. Which is the only thing you ever do. So we all get to call out the word squid game when someone's about to do something, right? So like, let's say you're 150 yards out and I say squid game rigs. You have to hit the green. And then if you don't, you lose that club for the rest of the round. You know what I mean?

I like this. So like, let's say we call out squid game. That doesn't work. If I have like a 20-foot putt, then you say squid game, I don't accept. No, you have to. So I think we all get like a certain amount of squid. I'll lose by putter on the first swing. Yeah, we're all just going to be coming down the seventh hole with no clubs left.

No, but I think you get a certain amount around, right? So like I get two squid game calls around. Lurch gets two squid game calls around. Riggs gets two squid game calls around Trent. And then we get to strategically pick them when we want, right? So like you guys could technically say squid game for Lurch on the first put, but if he makes it, you lose your putter. Yeah, but if it's a 50-footer,

I'm just never going to make that putt. Okay, so then you're just out of putter for the rest of the day, but then they don't have another squid game call. I don't know. I'm trying to think of something here. No, no. There have to be parameters. Yeah, there have to be parameters, though, because the 50-foot putt is a good point.

I like the idea if they make it, though, you lose yours. You lose like two clubs or there's, like odds. Like if there was, you know, anything outside of 15-foot or 20-footer, like, okay, that's just a two putt on the greens, it's automatic. And if you don't do that, like, the person that calls you out loses their club. I do, I don't think you're far away. I think like there's something there. There's something there.

There is something there. There is something really there. We should be aiding in your creativity here, not stifling it. It's wagering clubs being used for the rest of the round. Now, we do have to limit the idea of a 50 foot put, right? You can make the request impossible. And obviously they don't do it. two footer or sorry a two putt from that distance or hey frankie squid games you don't get on the green

in regulation because that's like you know you get two shots you got it on the green if you're not I guess yeah would you lose two clubs there could you wage your two I don't know that sounds a lot unless you make it like driver and then iron on do you lose both those clubs or I would lose both those clubs I do like the idea because there are like grave consequences to like executing on that mission. Yeah. Yeah, it just needs to be simple. These games, in order to catch on, these things need to be simple.

Like squid gaming somebody at any moment, and then if they don't do the thing, they just lose that club that they were trying to hit. But, you know, you could give odds to it. That is. I also love, I love the communication of it. Like, it's simple, short, and to the point, like, hey, Frankie, squid games. And it's just like, oh, shit. It's the biggest shot of the year.

Fuck. Yeah. There's something there. There's a game in golf that you can play where you can call out something and it like doubles or nothing. I played it with Kyle Rudolph and Brock out in Minnesota where you can like you call out something as the guy's about to step up and now it like doubles down and whatever you guys had. It's like it's that moment of like, oh my God, if I don't do it. Like they have no chance of backing out. You have to do it.

So like there's some idea there with Squid Game where they can't back out. They can't accept or deny. They just have to do it. Yeah. I do like the idea that you get one. You only get to use one the whole round because then it's it's not like, oh, every time you have a 50 foot pot, I can just squid games. It's like you get one call and you better use it. And like the later you wait to use it, then you don't get as much benefit out of it if the guy fucks.

What if it's only in the back nine then? Like what if you can only start like the squid game starts in the back nine? I don't know. I don't know. Maybe people can tweet us. I think people are going to like the idea and they're going to contribute. Yeah. Yeah.

There's going to be some ideas. Oh, whenever we come up with a new game. game like this. I mean, everyone has. I've gotten people DM in me lists of rules. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. So we'll get them. I've gotten a lot of DMs about cherries. Same. People love cherries. They do love cherries. That game, the fruit and the game. J.R. Smith kicked off his collegiate golf journey.

I mean, I don't even know where to go.

It takes forever. I'm the worst grocery shopper, I think, in the plant. I came back with like celery, coffee, hummus, some chicken breasts. And that might be it. And I was like, I don't even know what I just did. And then I ordered dinner. I was thinking I was going to go out and shop and like make food for myself and just did it. I never see it through.

I just get bored and quit. And I'm like, this is what I got for the rest of the week. This is what I have now. And it's never the full package. It's always a little bit from this aisle and that aisle and none of it really adds up to make any sense. It's a fucking joke. And then halfway through, I was like, oh, I'm even traveling Wednesday through Friday this week. And then I'm gone this weekend.

So anything I buy is just going to go bad anyways. and I just, I literally, I was just like, I should never do this again. That's the benefit of trifecta. You don't have to do any of that. You literally don't have to do any of that. You just got out to trifecta. I can't cook anyway.

Can't do any of that shit. What a great company. Trifacta Nutrition.com, code 4, 40% off shop, meal plans. I have to, we do a couple inside four play updates. Frankie, how's your elbow? Okay. I don't want to talk about it anymore.

Really? Yeah. All right. Is that because you don't, do people not like when you talk about it? Probably a little bit of both. No, has it gotten so bad that you don't want to talk about it? It's gotten so bad that I don't want to talk about it. And then also I think people don't want to hear about my elbow anymore.

And then also, I think that it's just not, it's not beneficial for me to continuously talk about how much. You worried about the insurance. Oh, I see what's not even that. I actually got a lot at the ends being like, that's just impossible. Like, they can't do that. Like, there's just too big, they're too big a company to, like, go out. They're not allowed to use, like, outsource, like, outside shit. I don't know.

And then I had another. They're not able to use the words directly from your mouth about how you. I just don't know that you've never been able to, like, prove that that's why it didn't work. You know what I mean? Okay. Yeah. There's probably some gray areas there. There are.

But I think there's also, like, a good faith clause in there and stuff. So, which, I mean, I tried to get better. So if anyone's listening to this, I really did. I want to get better. But yeah, it's just, it's definitely healing up. Like, I'm able to, like, do shit now. But it's, we're back to square, square one. That's, you know, numbness.

It doesn't seem like the square that we wanted to be at, right now. Put a fucking knee through my fucking finger. I wouldn't feel it. All right. You could just shoot it. Speaking of shooting it, I saw, there's a video on Barstles Sports of a spider being shot in, in Australia, and just wearing the bullet. and just it keeps going.

Really? Oh yeah. I can't watch that. Those fucking Australian spiders are built different. I can't watch it. How big and scary is a spider? Pretty big and scary? Big ass spider.

It's web at the bullet and then just catch it and ride the bullet. Just kind of took it off the chin and just kept going. If the bullet hits the spider, the spider's got to evaporate. Unless it somehow spider webbed their thing and then just rode it like a kite. Kind of just wore off the shit. How about spiders actually build webs to trap other creatures and then they just come back later. We ate spiders last week.

We ate spiders. We ate tarantulas, hairy ones on lowering the bar. Yeah, we did. Harry spiders. And did you know that he says the next plan is to eat live ones? Dude, I'll cry. I legitimately, lowering the bar, it's a great show. Shout out to Vibs.

It's a very fun yet torturous show to do. But like, I had to have Frankie come over and I had to have Vibs physically holding me as I ate the dehydrated tarantula. It's spiders I just don't fuck with, man. What's the chance of like a bad outcome? there. What do you mean? Just like you eat that and your stomach's just destroyed and, you know, there's a got to be, that can't be a hundred percent success rate when you eat a transfer. It was the worst one we've done in my opinion, just because I'm so scared of spiders. And if we start

eat live ones, no thanks, man. Oh, I haven't watched this video. I think I got click baited by Emrax on Barstals. I think it was a gel gun. I haven't watched it since we've been recording, so I have any audio on it, but I think it was one of those little gel guns. What's a gel gun? I don't know. That's what he wrote in there. I tried to sound cool and know what that was I don't know. Let me listen to this with some audio on there. Is there a real gun? This fucking...

All right, Frankie's now watching the video that I'm trying not to watch myself. Sounds like a real gun. I don't know, dude. I don't know what a gel gun is, but he fucking ripped it. It was an automatic and that spider just kept coming out. That is just the worst. People seem to be scared of snakes. That seems to be one of the big ones.

Snakes really don't bother me all that much at all. Spider starts crawling up with those fucking legs, man, I'm out of here. What other inside Barso stuff were we looking into? Trent being a heartthrob yet again in a new city and doing it as a surprise and then almost falling off the stage but then holding the luggage up like it was the World Championship heavyweight title. One of the funnier things I've ever seen. Yeah, I went to Philly.

The first show was in Boston. We talked a lot on this show about it. And then I went to Philly not telling Ria and Fran, Roan and Lerone and Lerner. sass were actually the guests on that show. And Roan came up to me early last week and was like, you should just come. He was like, just come to the show in Philly. Like we, he saw the pop. The crowd will.

Right. He saw the pop. He saw the pop in Boston. And he was like, I want you to come out in Philly. And I want to see that same pop in person. So didn't tell Ria and Fran, which I was very nervous about. I was as nervous as I could possibly be. It's their show.

I didn't want them to like have something happen that they weren't expecting. but Roan talked me into it and I showed up at the last possible minute and it was it was mayhem. It was fun. We had a good time. Bro, you barely got up on that stage. Dude.

What is it? Your right quad maxed out? Yeah. So the stage is like the stage is obviously a little elevated. And when I came out in Boston there was stairs that I walked up, you know, too. And there weren't those stairs this time around. So I just had to heave myself up on to the stage this time. And I lifted my right leg as far as it could go, planted it on there.

And I then was tasked with lifting my entire weight up with the right. And if you watch the video, I just barely get that left foot up on there. You were as close to going backwards as anybody could go. I think he would have fell forward. No, I think I would have fallen backwards and I would have killed some poor souls in the front row. Oh, I would have. There was like a tipping point where it was like, I would have paid $25,000 or you're going. I would have paid $25,000 to see that.

25 grand. If you watch the video, you can. really see the moment where it's 50-50. And then he drags the luggage up and barely makes it up. Yeah. Right. Like if I, it's,

if I had seamlessly and gracefully done it, I just would have stepped with my right and brought all the weight over like you, like how you step up onto something. Instead, there's a half a second where it's this guy, this guy could go down. And yeah, I had the luggage that was full of clothing.

And so I had to then bring all that up. It was, yeah, there was a moment there. I could have ruined the whole show by following. backwards and hurting someone. Bra's thrown at you again? So they actually threw bras at little sass before I got out there.

This is just, people are just toss and panty hose at people. And then little sass gave me the bra that was thrown at him. Does it feel like you're the original bra throwing has been diminished now? They're just throwing bras at anybody? No, I like that we have created an atmosphere where if you want to throw a bra, you can throw a bra. I like that, too. That's a nice world to live in.

It's just like, hey, we're at the Chicks in the Office Live show. If I want to take my bra off and throw it on stage, I can. That's something that should stick. That's a nice thing that's going on there. Not bad. It's not the worst thing. It's not like dudes aren't taking off their Tommy Johnson tossing them at you. No.

It was nuts though. The Philly show, I think there were, there were Lurch. The one you went to, there were like 150 people. I think there were 300 at this one. So it was just. So now are you locked into all these shows now? Can you imagine one of these shows starting? It's a no, but yes.

Trent's going to say no right now. But like, that show needs the podcast. It's a crazy atmosphere to the people that go in the future. It's TBD. Wow. I like that. That's a good answer. He's a traveling pop connoisseur, you know?

You're just, you're a, you have a bachelor's degree in pop. Oh, bachelor's degree. You really have the best role of anybody in the show because you don't have to really do anything. You go all the way there. You show up for two seconds. Everybody goes crazy and then you're basically, your commitment's over, right? You're not even up there for that long. Yeah, and even in Philly, it was even shorter.

In Boston, I came out for the last 20. You were there for a half hour or something? Yeah, in Philly. Yeah, yeah, because you do the Q&A and that takes about 20 to 25 minutes. In Philly, I was out there for 10 minutes. But Briggs is right. Like, your job is to be seen. The place goes bonkers when they see you.

All you really have to do is make it on stage, which was easy in Boston, but Not a lot. Not a lot. Not a lot. There should be live odds on if Trent can get on the stage. stage. Like that would be. The only reason I got out there was because of adrenaline.

Just because, like, if that had just been a normal step, I fall. What do you think about the, how lucky do you feel that your shirt stayed tucked in when you lifted up the luggage? Probably the luckiest I've ever been in my entire life. And I always tuck my shirt. And my shirt's tucked in right now. But if just for some reason I hadn't tucked the shirt in, that photo that I really do love is ruined. Yeah. Because then it's just my belly.

It's my pasty white belly hanging out as I'm lifting up the luggage. I am very happy that the shirt stayed tucked. He's stolen the idea. People's eyes would not go to your face in the luggage and pure excitement. Their eyes would go to the tire around your way. It may have turned to shriek. Right. Squeals to shrieks.

Braws are not flying at the stage and then that belly started to pop. It is weird though. You tuck in a t-shirt? Always, yeah. I actually think that's a weird move, but it definitely helps. that's a T. I'm gonna fuck what you think because it works.

I'm telling you, I do that for that reason because I have a belly and it's like if I raise my arms up there's a chance that it shows something that I don't want people to see.

But then like the idea of having it tucked in shows everyone that you're hiding something that you don't want them to see. But that's a better alternative. Definitely, but it's almost a little bit

like now it's like well what's under there because I've never seen someone like do that. You know what I mean? Like you're immediately you're like well now what is he hiding?

Because, like, usually just wear a teacher. Right, right. It definitely sparked more. I want to know what's under there now than opposed to just, like, seeing, oh, that's belly. You know what I mean? But I don't know if there may be, like, a ghoul under there or something. But the reaction I'm happy is, wow, why does he tuck his undershirt as opposed to, holy shit. Look at that bell.

Okay. Yeah. Okay. We have, we have an event on, oh, actually, I don't even know. Never mind. I don't even know what has been announced yet. I was going to say, there may be some pops at the end of the week for other, for, for, for other people, but I don't know if it's happening.

Okay. Not sure. Okay. If it doesn't, if it doesn't, I'm be upset. I want to be upset. Yeah, real upset. Danielle Kang, so Thursday night, the people's women's golfer. One of our favorite folks in all the golf, she's hilarious.

She likes to chirp. She slings the shit talking around as well as anybody. We went to Vegas, not that long ago, a few weeks ago, and we played her in a four-man scramble. So the four-man scramble has really been on the sidelines for a while. It's tough to schedule these matches with professional golfers in season when they're playing professional golf all over the world. But we were able to sync up with Danielle Kang next to Cisco. And we play her in a four-man scramble in Las Vegas.

So four men against Danielle Kang. She picked the T's on every hole. We played at Royal Links. Is that what it was called in Vegas? Ooh, that sounds right. Yeah. It was at the end of a, you know, week-long trip for us. where we were in Oregon and we were playing at 40 mile an hour wins and it was just which is fun

and great but it's you know a long week you're on the road for a week 10 days straight whatever it was so by the time we got to Vegas we didn't know what fucking course we were at what state we were in what was going on but we did get it together and played a match against daniel kank so thursday night 8 p.m. Eastern standard time i believe will be the timing maybe we'll go at seven depending on what's going on in the hashtag sports world that night but daniel kang four man scramble will be on YouTube. Royal Links Golf Club.

That's correct. Cool castle like clubhouse. They had. Really cool. Very. Very. Cool, of course.

Yeah. Very like Disney-esque where everything was themed. You know what I mean? Also, they had that huge open championship scoreboard. You remember that?

Just right in the middle of the golf course. But yeah. I actually don't remember seeing that on the course. I remember just seeing it looking out at the course. I don't remember what hole we passed that. Is it on 10?

I think it was between 10 and 18. It was just kind of putting there worthless in a way, but just like, okay, yeah, I get it. But like to your point, a very Disney scene. Yeah, I mean, that's all it really was. It's like you're not hosting a championship. Wow. Paul McCartney to induct the Foo Fighters into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

That is some fucking breaking news. That is awesome. How cool is that? Fufitis. Just the inspiration of Dave Grohl, Paul McCartney, just fucking inducting him, his disciple into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. That's as good as he. Yeah, it's right there, man. That's awesome.

Congratulations, Frankie. Yeah, a really good audio book or any book. You can get the hard copy is Dave Grohl's new book. The storyteller tells unreal stories of all the things that he's done being fucking Dave Grohl. He tells an amazing story. Why don't we get him on the show? Why don't we get him on the show, right? Frankie would be rock hard.

We'd also have to bring Robbie Fox on here. I would just let him take my seat. Robbie would never forgive me if I didn't have a lot of them. No, and I would never do it without him. It's impossible. He tells this amazing story about meeting, about going to George Harrison's, like, reunion or his memorial concert in London and, like, being a fan, like, waiting online. Like, George Harrison's son, like, gave him the tickets. And, like, the way he describes, like, getting in his seat and, like, tears rushing down his face when they started playing certain songs, like, being a fan.

And, like, being nervous to, like, does he have a backstage pass? Like, this is Dave Grohl. Like, he was like, oh, like, what kind of backstage access am I going to get? am I going to be in like the shitty room or the real room? Because he knows that when you give backstage passes, there's like two rooms for food fighters. There's like a room that like, all right, like the backstage VIP goes. And then there's like a room for the family that goes.

And he was like, oh, I turned the corner and I noticed I was in like the shitty VIP room. He's like, all right, it was a great night. And then all of a sudden, Paul McCartney walked in and Tom Petty walked in. And he was just like, oh my God. The storyteller, it's a great book. I'm starting to read it. Go do it. I was going to say, so I like the food fighters.

certainly not as much as you and Robbie do. I listen to the hits, but they have a documentary on Netflix called Back and Forth. Might be the best music documentary I've ever seen. It's a good way to get into the Foo Fighters and learn a lot about them. Dave Grohl is obviously a fascinating guy, but watch Back and Forth, You Will Not Regret it. It talks about Nirvana, Kurt Cobain, the whole deal. Very cool.

Where can I buy Back and Forth? Netflix. Is this still on Netflix? Oh, I don't know. That's where I watched it. Highly recommend. Even if you're not like a Food Fighters fan, because I wasn't when I watched it. it may not be on Netflix anymore maybe yeah it says it's available on YouTube for 399 Apple TV I think it's off of Netflix now however you can get it and watch it get it do it

because like I said you don't have to be a food fighters fan to watch it it's just a good music documentary Peter Milar so I'm rocking up Peter Mollar me and Lurcher basically wearing the exact same Peter Mollar QZIP right now the Perth QZip which is just a classic he's got the Barcelona Golf I got a little Pioneer's Country Club but the

From the clouds. Frankie, I feel like he's got his all pinned down and be like, tell me. I want to be so tight. Squid games. Favorite superhero. I don't have an answer.

But I want to say that I love those worlds. I love Marvel. And I love the Dark Night. I love that trilogy. But I'm not so in it that I'm like committed to one superhero. Okay. There was one superhero that I like the most. It would probably be Iron Man.

See, that's where I kind of am. I don't have like a diehard. I don't know all the comic books. I don't know all the back stories. When I see a certain character on the screen, I get up more for one than the other, and that's Batman.

Right. Like, I'm almost embarrassed to give an answer because I lived with Robbie Fox for almost four years, and that guy, like, he knows, he knows what he likes, he knows who's his favorite. He's got a Batman tattoo. So for me, he does. Yeah, it's cool.

And so for me, he's a Dave Girl tattoo, too. He's got an oasis tattoo. He's got the feather. It's sick. So I feel like claiming that I have a favorite superhero isn't like an actual claim. Riggs? I'm going to say Iron Man because Iron Man 2, I just find to be such a good movie. I think his character in that is so awesome.

He's funny. He's rich. He's intriguing. I think that. But that's not. That's like so separate from the actual comic world. I bet the comic book people would be like, go fuck yourself. That has nothing to do with it.

I don't think so. Six song too Yeah those movies The Iron Man movies are awesome Like Batman's pretty good But I I would I mean Who wouldn't love to have the Iron Man

So are you guys going three Iron Man's here Holy smokes What's the problem with that? I mean the first Iron Man He's got to be like the least superheroy person I would say See this is true I didn't know I was going to get

Yeah Iron Man and Batman are basically synonymous You're going to say They're both two rich guys I guess so See this is why I almost didn't want to say Because then I was going to get judge You're like, I'm judged. No, no, no, you're not getting judged.

Like, just, I guess my, me presenting the question, who is our favorite superheroes to get three Ironmans and one Batman? I would say, though, the Batman one is a little childish. Like, he's this rich guy who turns into a bat. I mean, at least like Superman is like, you're just, you're just, I don't know if I'm behind that. All right. But Iron Man, he just puts on a badass suit. He doesn't go around claiming like, I'm a fucking. Batman suit.

The Batman suit is fucking. fucking badass right but he themes it he like themes it which is weird like why is he this right here is why comic books prevail because we everybody just argues about who their favorite one is and they get excited when the movies come out they got the new batman coming out in 2022 and the trailer dropped yesterday it's just like you watch that trail and tell me that that guy's not the coolest fucking dude of all time how many views do you think that trailer already has on youtube i looked it up earlier god it's got to be over a million came out came out um a day ago came out yesterday how many views do you think

it has. I'm going to look at an updated number because I look before. I mean, you're saying it's like, whoa, I'm looking at it now. I type all right. So six million, six million views in one day. I mean, how like I'll share the view count. I'll guess based on what you saw the other day. No, I already know.

I know. Six million. Six million. 19 million. Oh my God. You want to there might be a little bit of height for that movie. 19 million views on YouTube in a day. The Spider-Man one that came out like a month ago. It hit like, it's at 71 million on YouTube in a month. And it was like the highest viewed one on the internet.

See, Spider-Man's another good one. Like, there's just something about these cool suits, man. Batman, that story's dark. He has a dark lifestyle. His parents were murdered and like the Joker. Just that whole world. Now they have the Ridler in it. And they're going to have the penguin in this next one.

It's like that's so fucking cool. I do like the penguin. The Redler, the Joker, Batman, the Cape. The fucking, and now they also have, what's his name? Michael Keaton. Michael Keaton's coming back playing the, like he was, he was one of the, not the original, obviously, that was back in the day, but he played Batman. And now he's coming back to play Batman in the Flash movie. It looks awesome. Anyway, I don't know. I just thought I'm not, I like all the superheroes. I just, if you, you penned me down into, you cornered me and you made me make an argument.

So I was arguing that I kind of like Iron Man. I think about it. I might be a Thor guy. Wow. Yeah. I like Thor a lot too. You look like a Thor guy. He's got humor. Yeah, he's funny.

He can fucking bring the thunder, bro. I love that. I love that hammer. Yeah, you do. You know what I'm talking about? Yeah, you do. I will say, Batman isn't funny.

That's true. He's not really very funny. Very serious. Oh, but then, but then he's so serious. He's so serious that you ever watch the Lego movie, the Batman, the Lego Batman movie? Dude, it's unbelievable. Dude, no, no, no, no.

Dude, yo, honestly, if there's any recommendation, if you're ever fucking probably high or you just want a dumb laugh, turn on the Lego Batman movie, it is so fucking funny. I don't know if I've laughed harder at a cartoon in my entire life. Did you not get much human interaction this weekend? What did I do this weekend? No, I got a decent amount of people. It feels like you're just wanting to talk about everything. Yeah, you know, podcasts. I like to talk.

I like that you're talking about it. But beforehand, now beforehand, though, we went deep in like succession. And you're just, you were, you needed to tell people about everything you experienced over the last three. Right. Out of every ad break, you've been like, you've seen Squid Games? Another ad. You've seen the Batman trailer? You've seen Succession.

It's just like, I'm down to talk about all this stuff. Yeah, you're having a water cooler. You're having a water cooler conversation with us on the podcast. It's a Monday, man. Right. It's true. Got the golf talk out of the way. Out of the way.

Anything else? Anything else on the brain or no, man. No, not yet. Okay. No. That's it. All right. Oh, the Kisner match.

People can watch the Kisner round of golf that we played as well. That went up. Shout out to Jake and Brendan and Avery and everybody filming that puppy. But Kiz always puts asses in the seat. He's always amazing. And he was that day as well when he and I played the Barstool Classic. So if you haven't checked that out, go to YouTube, four play golf, whip that shit up, put it on your screen, watch it.

It already at 200K. Holy shit. I was going to say, people are watching that video. If you haven't watched it yet, I mean, you're one of the few. Yeah. It's a lot. God, damn. It's a lot for a day.

How long has it been? A couple. Three days. 204,000 views. That's, yeah, everybody should watch it. It's a great video. Really good. The guy just brings it.

He's hilarious. He's Kizner. Everybody loves it. His mortgage line was one of the funnier lines I think I've ever heard. And he's like, what is it? Crosscaught you? He goes, I don't know. I don't know.

I don't have any mortgages. That was just really good. Yeah, he's good. He's very good. Wad Wednesday's real. Oh, shout out before we're closing things up. If you're going to rent an excavator and dig on your property, make sure you get the lines drawn from road to house.

This past weekend, I dug up a gas line. Real issue. Wow. Just going. So we had to call the natural gas company. They showed up maybe 1 a.m. We were up until 4 a.m. getting the gas line repaired.

So if you're going to do a home project, I was out here helping my brother, fun project getting in that kind of like dozer and picking up stumps and whatnot, know where you're electrical and your gas lines is. It's free. You can just ask the town,

hey, I need my property drawn or whatever. And they'll tell you where those lines are. Really important not to pop those. So you were just ripping through the ground without checking anything? Spot on. Amazing. This guy dropped off.

shitty moment when you broke that fucking line. Well, we didn't even really know until that night I stayed over my brothers and we were cooking dinner and the stove and oven didn't work and we're like, ah, weird. And they were like, what transpired from last night to tonight? Oh, that's right. We had that huge like bulldozer with this huge like scoop crane on it. And we were just ripping up stumps and taking out pretty much this whole section of his yard. And I took one look out there, saw a line.

that was ripped. It was hollow. It was like, that's got to be the gas line. And then it was an emergency. So, anyways. It's just an FYI.

The rest of the neighborhood or anything? No. So it basically, what there's a, an FVE, basically a restrictor valve on it. So if it does pop and it feels like it's a different amount of pressure

spewing out of it, it'll actually reduce the amount of gas going out the pipe. And so, you know, it's an issue. you don't want to light a match by it type deal. But you want to get that solved.

So, no, we didn't look into it at all. We literally just got the grocery going. Fucking add gas to it. Got a call before you dig. That's something I was ingrained in my head. And I never did any sort of work like that. But there would always be signs over on every yard being like call before you dig. That's what you got.

So we got two trees removed, big stumps. I was digging. circles around these trees, big ones to try to get under the stump. Doesn't that thing feel like a video game, the joystick? Isn't it so much fun the excavator? It is so much fun. And you get good at it, right?

Once you get good, yeah, because it's basically two joysticks and then you've got a forward and back on your feet. And then you've got basically like kind of a thumb control as well to rotate the crane, open it up, close it, do whatever. But yeah, once you get the hang of it,

man, you could destroy your property. and that's pretty much what I did along with the gas line. So it is, like, when you Google it, they're like call 911 immediately or the gas company to fix it. So that's just, you know, an FYI, kind of a PSA for everybody out there. Smart. I was not informed of, hey, you know, check before you dig. And that's definitely, that's a good thing to do. Or play.

You might get, you might get, like, superhero breakdowns. You might get told that you shouldn't drive in front of a train. you might get told that you shouldn't just rip up your fucking yard and break gas lines in half. So, you know, we're here to help people. Lurch. It's a lot on. Yeah, I don't know. Anyone else have anything?

No, I think I'm done. I don't think I have nothing else now. Really? Do you think I have something? I don't know. You had nothing else in your brain? No. Finished Ted Lassow.

That was the only thing I did this weekend. Yeah. That's a really good show. Really good. TV to catch up on. I haven't seen the end of that. Squid Games. Successions out.

I haven't seen any of those yet. I think I'm going back to that place Woodlock for Halloween weekend. Are you? Because it gets spooky up there. And there's a haunted walk and you just walk through those fucking scary-ass forest. And they just say, like, we'll see you later. There's some things out there and we'll see you back. We used to do haunted corn mazes.

Haunted corn mazes are scary. That feeling of like, I'm going to fucking die out here, man. That's awesome. I've seen a couple of videos online now that have, like, freaked me out. out with the guards of spirits and just stuff happening around me that like like they burned a haunting house. I don't know if anybody saw that video that was all over the internet that like looked like spirits are escaping when they're burning this haunted house.

Holy smokes. I don't know, man. Bro, there's a place in New York City. I think it was called like Blood Manor, I think, is like the most expensive haunted walk that you could possibly find. And I could be wrong on this for people that went, but there's these, all these rumors that like it's so scary that like if you got through it you'd get your money back essentially right like most people would say like no i don't want to finish they like you tap out

or you hit a button you're like i'm not going on anymore because like um they split you up from your group in a lot of the on the walks and now you're just like by yourself like i'm jumpy too like i get does it i get scared god i get yeah i don't do well like my buddies love to come up and scare me because i'll jump quick this is from a run down a long time one of the funniest conversation they had on a barstool rundown was they came up with the idea that once every Halloween season a haunted house should be able to kill one person that goes in there so you add that element of us where it's they get to kill one person each season so that adds another layer to it like am i going to be the one person could be you could be you i don't know if i could do haunted houses and stuff like that anymore that stuff is just a lot dude i know i'm going to be super jumpy it's scary shit like just Being scared is not a fun feeling. It's not. But it is, but like the, who the hell is that?

Being scared. The idea of being scared to me makes no sense. But once I am getting scared, it's like fun, especially, especially if I'm, like, at an event. I don't like scary movies or I'm sitting in a chair and I'm being forced to watch a fucking movie. Yeah. I don't like that. Because I don't know what's coming. At least, like, I can run when I'm on, like, a walk.

When I'm, like, physically doing, I can sprint away, which I will. But when you're watching a scary movie, you could just get up and live. leave. Yeah, I guess so. I've had some bad experiences where I just, like, didn't want to see scary movies and, like, you're with your friends and that you can't let them know that you have that weakness, and, like, you've sat through it, and I just... Oh, I would tell Robbie Fox all the time. Again, when I lived with him, he would always want to watch scary movies, and I would just say no. And then he'd be like, oh, this one is a thriller, and it would be a lie, and it'd be a horror movie, and I'd just be in it. Yeah, you're just in it, man. You're actually in it. So scary.

I don't like that stuff. I don't like to be scared. I got nothing else for you guys. All right. All right. Well, we'll be back on Thursday, so since nobody's got anything in their brain, hit it hard. Hit it hard. Hit it hard. Hit it hard.
