Let’s be clear: Tiger Woods 2.0 has arrived. At least for now. Charlie Woods stole the show this weekend and EVERYBODY (except maybe old man golf media) loved it. We delve into the PNC father/son, the Barstool Fund, and what it’s meant to Borrelli’s and small businesses across the country, how we like our steaks cut and cooked, and finish with a demand for whoever’s in charge of golf coverage!!!You can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube.

Hey, 4Play listeners, you can find us every Tuesday and Thursday on Apple Podcast, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Merry Christmas, if that's your holiday, if it's not. Happy holidays. Merry Christmas anyways, but also happy holidays. I hope you actually have a Merry Christmas, even if you don't celebrate Christmas. So you should marry and have a great time. And then also, you know, we've got New Year's coming up.

We're going to speak to you plenty of times before then. But it's Christmas week. Merry Christmas. It's a good point. I like that when you say something, because sometimes you don't know and you just say Merry Christmas, and then you sometimes get these answers like, well,

I actually don't celebrate Christmas. And I'm like, well, now I'm going to say, well, there's a day called Christmas and you can just have a merry day on that day. Like, just because you don't celebrate, it doesn't mean that you shouldn't enjoy that day.

Like, it's a Friday night. I would still like to have a happy, I would like to have a happy Hanukkah, but like I'm not. Correct. Well, Hanukes going on.

I want to be having a happy dog. Am I supposed to be mad, upset, angry? Yeah, like, what if somebody said have like an angry Christmas? You'd be like, well, that's real fucked up just because I'm not, like, I don't celebrate that religion. You want me to have a bad. I like that a lot, man. So anyway, Merry Christmas.

It's Christmas week. It's one of those shows. I think it feels like two weeks of stuff happened since the last time that we spoke. It was a huge weekend in the world of golf unexpectedly. I mean, yeah, we were hyped up for this, but this was such a. bonus. This was Tiger Woods and Charlie Woods is obviously what I'm talking about. And it was far beyond that. Just like it kind of at a time when we are talking about Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, it's been a very bad year if you had to judge it on aggregates for the planet Earth. And now

you had a very nice ending to it with, if you're a golf fan, if you're kind of a sports fan, with the P&C, the father's son, Charlie and Tiger, they drew a ton of eyeballs to the event. And it showcased a lot of other, like Matt Coucher. and his, I think, 13-year-old son, I didn't realize how good they were. You had guys like Lee Trevino and Gary Player, how old they are. They were still out there doing it, sort of like challenging the leaders. You had Justin Thomas and his father, ended up winning the whole thing. So we are going to break the entire thing down.

We've got a ton to get to. Owens, we're going to talk about Owens real quick, are really the go-to. I was entertaining some folks at the apartment this weekend. He said, you know, what do you got to drink? So actually, I've got like an arsenal of things to drink because I have the mixers and I can just make 15 different really good cocktails like wow I didn't realize you know to make cocktails I don't I know how to pour liquor and ice into a glass or into a fucking copper mug and then I know how to pour this different mixers into it and boom it's just delicious so

that's what Owens does they've reinvented the mixture game they've partnered with us on the transfusion which is a delicious cocktail it's our favorite golf drink and it plays all over the place it plays at the 19th hole after it plays at your home it plays if you're watching golf or football it just plays all the time. So they are available on Amazon. That's where a lot of people are getting them now. I'm seeing a lot of tweets, a lot of Instagrams and folks ordering it on Amazon. They're the itched to deal, ink to deal, I guess what people say, not itch to be weird if you it's to do with Publix where you can just walk into the store and fucking buy it. So Owens Mixers, you go to their website, Owens Mixers.com, and you're going to want to during this winter

season probably whip up some cocktails. Owens Mixers is the way to do it. So big thanks to Owens. And then also in the time since we did a show, Borelli's has probably become the most famous restaurant in world because of the creation of the Barstool Fund. Like we, Barstool Sports now and not even really we. Like it's Erica, Dave, and our company, I guess, runs just a massive charity now. And since we did the last show and Borelli's was sort of the showcased restaurant as an example to the rest of the world of why Dave and Erica and so many people were just. doing this. So Borelli's now, Frankie, is maybe the most famous family restaurant in the country. Crazy, man. It happened so fast. I remember it was like a couple days ago and I was in the car with Dave and that guy Marcus Limonsis or whatever tweeted at Dave, the profit, right? He has that show on

CNBC, whatever that is. Good show. That guy's pretty legit. He goes undercover for businesses, really successful dude. Tweet's at Dave, like, I'm putting up 500 grand. You will too, right? Like basically like just like tweet that Dave out of knowing. And Dave's like, yeah, I mean, like now I'm in. Like you just like, well, now that you tweet at me, I'm in. And when Dave gets in on something, he doesn't just go in. He dominates it, owns it, explodes it through the roof. That's what parcel does.

So since then, you know, things were happening. Some tweets were happening. I was in the car on our way to a pizza review and I was like, I was just like stressing out at home, listening to my dad talk about, like, call people, you know, talking about bills and like how this is crazy. It's still going on. And we've already, we've raised a little bit of money like in April, like from Stoolies and four playlists. And there's through Venmo.

It was like a good chunk of change that got us through. Because you got to remember like this huge restaurant. So we're talking like 20 grand a week just in taxes and expenses alone, not before you even pay people. So it's like when that's when you're down, 300, 400, 500, 500 grand for a small business for a guy that, you know, my dad takes a bit, he takes his payroll out of the register, basically, depending on how the restaurant does. He, he said it on token yesterday. look to make millions of dollars. He looks to put, you know, a decent life for his family and be able to go on one vacation a year where he could drive out to like the end of Long Island, spend two days there and get back to the restaurant. Like that's just his life. And when you take

that away, I mean, it's not putting them on the streets, but it takes a lot of people at the restaurant and puts them in different situations. We have a bunch of people that have mortgages and all this stuff. And Dave knows this. And I asked him, I'm like, man, like, what's going on with this far still fund? And he's asking me like, all right, like, we're trying to structure it around like getting them through like whether it's rent or taxes per month like we don't know how long it's going to go and he's really like I'm like man he's asking a lot of questions I'm texting my dad like what and he was just like man like you're he's trying to base it like what does what kind of restaurant needs help and he was like naming off the things like my dad does like he's kept

every single worker he's charitable he delivers to hospitals he does the and he's like you know what like call your dad like what are we doing like let's let's figure out what your dad needs and like let's see, like, if this works. And of course, I mean, I don't know if everyone's seen it, but like, my dad was just, I showed him the video and he was, he was, uh, it was, he was a ball of waterworks is what he was he's the best, man. Mr. Brel is the best. He fucking wears his emotions on his sleeve and he never takes it off. And in the funniest part of that, that video was I showed it to him and he started choking up and he tried to like, he goes, let me, let me gather myself real quick and let's restart this. And I'm like, dad, like, 10 seconds in, he was just a mess. Like,

that second that video was an attempt at holding in his emotions because the first time didn't go the first time didn't go as planned so um you know it's been amazing and we put the shirts on sale and what's good about the shirts is we sold thousands and thousands of beryl's t-shirts and um a lot of that money is going to go to helping other restaurants too so it's not just borelli's right like we like cap it off at a certain number of whatever it needs and then he's going to go on to the next one since we've recorded that Since we've done that first fundraiser, he's already helped a lady who's beaten cancer three times in New Hampshire who needs money. And she said that she got through the cancer three times. She got through the first set of, you know, restrictions from COVID.

And now this is just, this is the hardest fight she's had to battle because now it's snowing, no out there. So, I mean, it's absolutely stunning how much money can be raised from Stoolies. And we're a huge family. And we like to put our money to things that matter. as opposed to like you pay all these taxes to fucking New York State and I came and get out of my I can't get down the road the food the roads aren't even fucking paved or like no one's coming down to shovel us out it's crazy so it's like this is money that's actually going into people that are going to then make the community better and it's

I couldn't be more proud to work for a place that does this it's Dave is quite Dave and Eric are quite literally the biggest supporter of small business in the country right now show me one other fucking brand or a company that's doing what they're doing. It's insane. And they're just they're putting a day they're creating a ton of work for themselves and and for other folks, you know, at bar stool. But they're also, you know, realizing that the platform can can capture all these people that exactly what you just said, Frankie, where it's like there's not a ton of trust in like the government. There's not a ton of trust in like how come they can't come up with some relief. Like now they're doing like 600 buck people.

like what are people going to do with 600 bucks and you've got these thousands and thousands of cases of people who have done nothing wrong who have worked their asses off forever who have created jobs who have run small businesses which like small business literally is america like freedom and capitalism and this idea like you can pretty much just do whatever you want like if your if your thing is um italian food and like making like you know uh penna al vodkaas for like families around town you can just run your own business hire who you want to hire you provide jobs for like a lot of your friends kids and they come in and it's the goes to spot for the island like you can literally do whatever you want in this country and all of a sudden people are just told that they that they literally can't

and that all of their work just isn't going to cut it and that they're not allowed to operate and now Erica Dave are are doing this fun it's been a phenomenal response from stooleys from people all over the country all over the world donating millions of dollars are going to end up getting donated and then they're like you said frankly like allocating it kind of case by case frankie uh or berelli's being sort of the first and you know i can't even imagine the inquiries they're getting because i who have nothing to do with it like i'm getting you know text emails i'm sure trent i'm sure lurch uh dms long ones from people like hey you know you've you've come into our place quite a bit um this is our situation and every one of them has such a good case

of like you know they grinded they didn't they didn't let people go they They were bringing in their entire family was coming in to try to help run the restaurant. They're moving and setting up outdoor dining every single day because they couldn't leave the stuff outside. Like people just working so hard and not really able to do anything about it because of the pandemic. And here comes the Barsdow Fund. So people, I believe it's Barsstool Fund at Barsetports.com. If you do have a small business that's in need, that's looking for some help just to get through this, submit, you know, what it's going to take, what your situation is in order for you to get through

January. And then I think is it barstoolfund.com. Is that the website? I'm looking at it right now. It looks like it's barstoolsports.com backslash the barstool fund. Barswellsports.com backslash the barstool fund. That's how you can donate and help out. And then also just going to the store and looking at Borrellys, different merchandise from, from restaurants, from small businesses, which I think they're going to work on putting more of those up there. But the shirt's awesome. The hoodies are awesome. Dude, I bought a Borelli's hoodie, and I like that.

It's going to a good cause. I like everything that's going on. But I would have bought that hoodie regardless. It's crazy. That's such a good logo. Crazy how long it took for us to put out a Borelli's hoodie. It's a great logo. And just the whole back where it's like a Long Island family tradition.

We all love local shit like that. Like I'll literally, I would love a hoodie that just says like Bob's fucking garage from Indianapolis, whatever. You know what I mean? Like I love that shit more than just wearing like the Walmart brand or big box brand. Like give me that local because it shows like culture. It shows that you care about shit. So people walking around, it actually, you know, one of the things I used to love is Borelli's has been around for 65 years.

So obviously we've been selling shirts for a long time, but you only sold it in the store. And you would be somewhere random and see a Borelli's T-shirt. Like it was so fucking rare. So I remember we were at like Red Rocks and. Colorado seeing like a 3-11 concert and someone just right in front of us was just wearing a burrilles t-shirt I'm talking like we were row 27 they were wrote 26 I'm just like well what the fuck's this about like this was seven years ago whatever was and I'm like hello like where'd you get this like I don't know my dad at it and like I'm high I'm high right now so I really don't know what you're talking about

and I'm like okay whatever and then another time we were in like the career like we were in like oh we were in Florida just and someone's on the beach taking a photo of their family and like the whole Borelli's family was on the beach just look like what's that about like what are you doing like I don't know we used to live in East metal so it's really cool to see now that like that's going to be everywhere like I mean thousands of Borelli shirts of so so it's just it's stunning man and also the thing that you guys can do not you but any all the listeners um is go support your local business and your local Italian restaurant your local Greek place the people that are just grinding on this food and Trent just smirk when I said Greek because I got Trent on a huge

Greek kick recently. He said that. Oh, boy, it's fucking... I mean, I think every time I've seen you in the past two months, you're like, did I tell you about this Greek place that's right down the street for me? And you would tell me the story all over again to the point where on Friday night, I had to get Greek food. And you were right.

I got, what is it? Chicken slovakie. Tuvloci. And it's just chicken on a kebab. You got the pita bread and you got Siziki sauce. I hope I'm saying that, right? And you basically just dip it and you eat it and you keep dipping. It's phenomenal. I was texting Trump.

What'd you do with that meat? I go, did you dip it in the sauce? He goes, oh, I dip this. I said, what did you do with that? And you said, oh, I dipped that. Maybe more than anything. We had a good little back and forth going. But the point remains, I go to this place,

Avley, little Greek kitchens and Belmore. Shout out to those guys. Go give them support. But like, we were on a national scale. So like, we were on fucking Fox and friends. My dad was on the news. I heard him at 6 o'clock in the morning. He called me.

You want to come on the news? I'm like, who the fuck? What is going on right now? This is insane. but like you know people are coming into the restaurant now and they're getting takeout and you know if you usually have a Christmas party and you're like scrambling for your employees maybe you work at like a big box company or like you work in an accounting firm and you usually have them go call your local Italian restaurant your local Chinese food place and like give

gift cards and give them to your employees since you can't have those parties like there's things that you can do to help small business not just because that we're shut down we can't sit down in the restaurants and we can't sit down at the local um you know tackle store near the fucking whatever if you're in florida there's a lot of small businesses go get gift cards that helps the most because when this thing opens up people will be able to go patron you'll be able to give money to those fucking people and that's just all we need we need money going in with your stimulus check go use it don't put it in your fucking bank account and just like gain one cent interest on it when you get that stimulus check go to your local fucking pizza place

and get 25 pizzas and give them out like just do that it's only 600 bucks you're going to be fine Just give your stimulus check to Borrellis. No. Go spend money, man. Go spend money. That's what you need to do. If you have it, spend it.

That's what we need to do right now. Because it's, it's bad. I mean, it's bad. And, you know, I hope that we can help

as many people as we possibly can. Also, you want these businesses on the back end. Like, you want them to be there like when the world opens back up. So if you can right now and you can afford it,

go spend money at them now. So then ensures that they're there later. Because everybody won't, local shop. So it's, I just Google Barstool Fund or you go to barstoresports.com. It is the barstool dash fund. That's the URL. And, and you can donate. And then we're going to allocate these funds to help small business, but they're right. Go spend money. Help out if you can. If you have the means, if you have the, you know, the money, afford it, go through a little extra their way, try to go out as much as you can because keeping these people, you know, like, I think we can all

see the light at the end of the tunnel. We're all following the updates, the vaccines. They're getting out there. But we're not there yet, man. Like not there yet. So people got to help out and try to get these businesses, these small local businesses through. Speaking of local business, I have a quick, I have a quick story from, I went to, I went to a little breakfast spot here. And I just had a weird, it kind of reminds me of some of the weird like Seinfeldian interactions that Frankie's had many, many, many times. But I go, I go get breakfast. And I go to, you know, it's one of those spots where they give you the bill and then you go up front and you pay on the way out. And so I do that.

They got like the little piece of glass like barricade thing between the guy of the stand and myself. So I hand him the receipt and then I pull out my credit card and they have like the credit card machine like is in front of me. So I like, you know, insert it yourself. Well, I'm standing there. And after I hand him the receipt, you know, he looks like he kind of does a little something. And then he's just kind of like looking at the sky. Like it's like my, or at the ceiling, I guess. Like, it's like my turn to go.

So I'm, but I'm looking at the credit card machine. Like, nothing's happening. You know how usually it's like the blue lights come on the swipe area? Or like it prompts you like this is the total. Would you like to pay? Like nothing. It just says like welcome to like the breakfast spot on the thing. And I'm like, so this probably goes on to like 10 seconds.

It's just silent. He's just staring at the ceiling. So I put the credit card in being like maybe it just doesn't pop up in it. And like nothing happens. And now it's like another probably another like. like five or 10 seconds where it's just me and this guy and nothing's happening on the credit card thing and he's just not he's just not doing anything and my and so I pulled a credit card out because I'm like obviously he hasn't done the prompt thing like he's got to do another step so how do it so eventually

I just kind of make a like I'm like oh yeah it's not you know and I try to make it and and he kind of looks and he goes he like hits a little button he clearly hits a button and then immediately it prompts me And then he goes, yeah, this thing, sometimes this thing takes forever. And I was like, well, no, like, you did. You clearly did something. Like, it'll take forever if you don't like do anything. Like, yeah, we'll just, it needs an input to how. Yeah, exactly.

So I was like, looked at him for a second, like, all right, I guess I'll let him get away with, like, that's fine. Like, he just, he just wasn't doing his job. He didn't hit the button. And so then I put the card in and it works right away. Like, everything literally works. The minute he made a movement, it works right away. And I put it, and it clearly, I prop, whatever. And then he goes, he makes it, he doubles down and he goes,

technology is great when it works, huh? And I was just like, well, now, like, now you've double buried, like, he's, the credit card machine's got to be, like, rattled at this point. Because a credit card machine, like, didn't do anything wrong. It's just been, the guy didn't hit the button. So then, like, the second time, I kind of looked at him. and like I wasn't sure if I should say something because I didn't.

You were going to say something on behalf of technology? I was going to say something on like a, like, no, I didn't take, you just weren't doing your, you weren't doing anything. You just stood there. And I, so I gave him kind of just a look, like a, like I know look is kind of, like I just wanted him to be like next time I go in there.

I want him to know that I knew that there, it wasn't the credit card. Like the credit card machine. was perfect. Like the second that he made a move, it just worked like flawlessly. Yeah. And the rest of the time, he just was looking at the ceiling. Like, I don't know what he was looking at. It was infuriated. That happens to me a lot. I go to this garage by the, office, and, and like, they'll, you know, like, or in a taxi, it happens to me all the time. Where, like, I'm fucking doing it. And the guy's like, no, you got, you can't. Like, it'll say,

like, payment didn't work. And I'll take it out. And the guy goes, please, please follow the instructions as if like I pulled it out too early and I've given a little bit of a lip back being like no like I'm the one looking at the screen I know how to read like it told me that it wasn't working so like I'm like savvy enough with technology to know that like it's probably not processing like let me just restart this and then it beeps and he's like oh no like now like now you really did it and I'm like well like no the system's broken and we need to figure this out because I need to get inside this fucking place. So yeah, no.

You've got a disconnect where I need, taxi cabs need a system where they also see the screen that you're looking. Yes. They don't see that. And there are things that can go wrong. And there becomes a disconnect between you and the driver. And now you're pitied against each other. And they're trying to act like you don't want to pay, but you're like, no, no, no.

I want to say, sometimes it's spinning to give you your total and you're just sitting there. And he goes, please insert the card. And I say, if I insert the card right now, it's, it's actually going to, to break it. I'm telling you. And he goes, please insert the cards there. And I'm like, okay, and you do it. And it's like, ah, ah, and you're like, you know what, motherfucker you're, I'm glad there's glass here because I'm gonna fucking, like, you're, you're like, if we just waited a second, if we just waited a second for this thing to download, I'm like, do you understand how downloading things work? Like, it's just, it happens all the time and you want to knock it, man, because these guys are just like driving that car for a living and

they don't want to fucking deal with your bullshit in the back seat. They're just like, let me just take the money and go. But it is funny sometimes. I think that's why Uber's there too, is because that experience is the worst experience in the world. It is. And it's like, no, you don't understand. And I don't know if I have like the knowledge to explain what's happening.

This is here, but I can't really explain. It's just I know that it's not going to work and you've got nothing to offer me. Nothing. Except input your card again. Because that is just poor logic. What that does is it doesn't work for my experience. Let's side of that, though, and this is a bit of an art form from taxi cab drivers.

The ones who will allow you to pay as you're still cruising down the street. So it's like they're like, I'm going to be dropped off up here. And they're like, oh, it'll be right up here on the right. And they start the process. So as you're paying, you're pulling up to the spot. Oh, yeah. That's a pros pro. But that's what they're looking for there is a bigger tip because that's like a bartender buying you your last beer.

because it goes up like 40 cents every like two blocks. I'll tell you what. I'm totally fine with it too. But that's exactly what they're doing. I'll stop you a couple blocks early. Well, that you're just describing good service. You're just describing good service. I'm just, but that's a pro's problem.

Just saying that's what they're doing. That's the only reason I'm doing that. The smartest thing cab companies ever did, and I don't know how long they've been doing this, but when it prompts you to pay and it gives you the choices for tip amount and it starts at 20%, 20, 25, 30%, like, I you always go with 20 or 20,

25% depending on the service. I feel like if that prompt wasn't there, people would be going 15 hard. Oh yeah. Yeah. Sometimes that infuriates me though when they start at 20. Like I at least like to see an 18 just so I can like if this guy's like one time left the US open last year a couple years ago. And the cabby, I mean, he farted the whole way home. And like he wouldn't even like pretend that it was happening. It stuck in there. If I could have not given this guy a tip I would have. It was an absolute nightmare starts at 20. It's just disgusting. But like,

you just think about those situations where like, I'm trying to think of it. Maybe you're, oh, like, maybe you're at like the airport, right? And you're rushing and you just get a water. And you do all the work yourself. You grab it. You fucking walk up to the cashier. And like the late and the guy or the girl just spins that tablet around and it says,

like, would you like to leave a tip? And you're just like, I mean, like, uh, or sometimes you just like, you just got to say no or you just like skip it like and you have to actually do it in front of them that should be illegal because like there are sometimes where you're just like you don't deserve this tip right now even though I'm going to give it to you like this is crazy you're sitting there on your phone and I just ran around I waited online you just fucking turn that tablet now I get it like it's the service industry let's tip every single person 20% it is what it is like but fuck man there's sometimes I'm trying to think of times where it's just like not really the service

industry. We're like, it's happened to me multiple times where they actually give you the receipt and there's a gratuity line. And you have to type, you have to go over it and just sign. Well, what you're explaining the airport is like spot on. You go around like you're like Hudson News. You go grab your drink. You swipe it. It already costs like $5.50 for a small bottle of water. You're already like, this is enough money for a bottle of water. And then they flip it on you and then they're like tip. And you're like, well, no, I don't know what your part in this is that you deserve your tip. Like, You're just like you're an exchanger. Like I don't need you.

But like to hit no right in their face is crazy. I know it's hard. Crazy. It's like I can't. What is it? A dollar? Like you're, this is crazy. It's hard.

Trent, remember we were on the Cousins Retreat and they asked me. Oh yeah. Dude, we were filming everything. We were doing like a YouTube vlog type style. And I, it was literally at the airport thing.

And we got like $4 worth of fucking gummy bears and a, bottle of water or something and they were like would you like leave a dollar for like children's you know research at like st jude and i was like no it was different it was different and i don't i think it's already on video and it's already out there so i'm not like i'm not putting you out here but it was for the troops and you said you said no and you looked into the camera and said sorry captain cons and just walked away well also like and you're right this is this is what's great about you know the bar still is like you're watching like my dad received a message from dave and he cried and he fucking got it right like sometimes when i'm at the hudson news station and i just got myself way too much sugar and i'm

about to get on a plane and watch just a shitty movie like i don't know that my two dollars are going to like afghanistan to fight for like our freedoms like i just don't know that that's happening i really don't know if it's going overseas like i don't trust that maybe i should i much i feel much better like my one or two times a year where I see something on the internet or go fund me or like a captain cons put something up for like headstrong or something and I know it's legitimately going to a fun because you see someone get a dog or like you know what I mean like you're actually seeing it happen those are so much better than like this lady or guy who don't who doesn't even know what they're asking me they have no clue if that's going anywhere it's just going into their

system and probably never going anywhere ever again like who knows no you know Maybe they have, I bet you they have like an assigned amount of money that Hudson News just donates to the fucking fund. And like, whatever we give, like, it doesn't matter. They already give a million dollars, whatever it is. No, that is what's great about the Barstall Fund. And Dave's always been great about that. Anytime Barstool has done charitable acts, he always shows the whole process all the way through,

all the warts, all, like even now with the Barstool Fund where it's like, this thing is huge and we're kind of scrambling for bodies to put this whole thing together. But he'll tell you all about that. You see where it comes from. The 500,000 from Dave, all the stool he's donating, all the shirts. And you'll see it all the way through until it goes to a place like Borrellys or these other restaurants that he's picking. And it makes you feel good about donating to a fund like that.

Yeah, I don't need to see Joel Olstein and his mega church. And he's riding out of the fucking church with two Lamborghinis and his sons behind him in an electric escalate. Like, I don't need that type of charity. I need something that's like mom and pop. I mean, Dave runs bars to like a small business. And I've always said that. He is a small business.

I mean, we're a massive company now. They're worth half a billion dollars. But it's still a very small business because like four plays a small business. We have like we have work to do and like we go out and do it. And we like it's our product. We like we mask it. We we change it. We we fabricate whatever we got to do to get the logos right,

all this stuff like that we do it. Like and Dave does that with Barstool as a whole brand. He creates little mini small businesses within it. And he's never going to like, he doesn't bail you. he just goes, go do it. He said it today in the year I'm meeting. Like, just go fucking do it. Don't ask for help. Don't ask for whatever. At the end of the day, if you do well, we're going to help you like you wouldn't believe.

But just go fucking do it. That's small business. So, yeah, I'd much rather give my money and stuff like that to people that know that. They actually understand it. They're built from it. It's in their blood. It's in Dave's blood. And Erica, too. I think that's always the case.

I mean, like, your point of like earlier of like my roads aren't paved like that like that is always like frustrating. But, you know, you trust your like government officials to put the money where it needs to be. it is, it's so much more fun when you actually know where that money's going and you feel empowered by that. Like this movement that Barsstool started is just like, it's great because as soon as I saw that video, I think I tweeted like, I don't, I don't love Frankie all the time, but I love his father or something like that. And I instantly texted Frankie. I was like, I just want to reach out. Like I'd love to give a buck. Which is crazy. Lurch does this to me. He backs me in the corner.

He's the nicest guy in the fucking world. I tried to deny his money. And Lurch, and to his credit, he's fucking persistent man he goes i don't have much but i'm gonna send and he sends like a decent fucking amount of money and it makes me hot and it makes me want to throw up because i like lurch is such a good guy at heart and like everyone always reaches out and stuff but like and it's hard to imagine that like we have these differences and i fucking hate him i think he's the grotesque and ugly and a whole thing and but then he's like helping out i said like lurch dude like that money like my dad is like quite literally going to bring that food to someone that does not have food for Christmas. Like that's literally going. Like he took the money and he put it into food. Like he went to

Restaurant Depot and God. Like you know what I mean? Like he actually did it. So you know it's going somewhere and it's actually a product of like that money going somewhere. So yeah, thank you to Lurch. I mean, everyone's buying shirts. It's question Frankie actually now that we go back on that because I didn't really think about that exchange until now. Did you, the money that you owed me, did you also kick that in? Yes. Good man. Well, I bought a bunch of sweatshirts. So technically it's for that. So I bought a bunch of sweatshirts. It all went to the bar still fun.

I bought like whatever. I bought a bunch of sweatshards more. Good man. Well, any way we can support it. It's a great cause. And it's, uh, your dad. And keep your eye open too. He's awesome that way.

Keep your eye open for the other places too because I know that we're going to try and help the, what time is it? It's five, 10. So there's a pizza review coming out at six o'clock. It's one of my favorite dudes we've ever, we've ever done. And he's, uh, this place in Astoria. He's straight off the boat from Italy, like back in the day. He's lived in Astoria his whole life.

He had 50 employees, just like my dad. He had to go down to four employees. He's sitting on the side of the road drinking wine with Dave and everyone in the town. Rocco, hey, Monte Pucciano. And he's like going crazy. Everything. He's pouring wine for people. They all know and they're kissing his hand.

Hey, how's the kids? His like kid comes up, kisses her. And like that's a guy who needs help because he runs his business so fucking well. He's got a beautiful restaurant. Lights everywhere. A story has huge fits to 200 people. And now he's like an unsuccessful. He doesn't know how to run a business, he says.

He's like, I don't know how to do it. Like, what am I supposed to do? Like, I can't get people inside. Like, I have to try and, like, figure out how to get people outside. It's fucking two degrees outside. What do I do? Like, Dave, you tell me, I've been working for 40 years and now I don't know how to answer my, like, wife when she asked me, like, what are we doing?

Like, I feel like an asshole. What's the name of the pizza joint? It'll be 60 tomorrow. Tratoria Insalata. Trotoria insalada or insolato. It'll be on barstalsports.com. It'll be a massively viral review because it's a 32-minute review. and everyone loves watching those long ones.

Dave gets absolutely shit-face in the review. So it starts out Dave's dead ass over and he walks out stumbling out of the place. Like he, Dave drank two bottles of wine within 30 minutes. So it's a very good review. Just we're going long-winded. I appreciate everyone. Thank you very much.

And it's not just for us. It's for the fucking country, really, what it is. We're going to spread it apart. You know, every city, every state, hopefully. So yeah, that's great stuff. It's crazy. Google Barcelona fund, or you just type in the URL,

barstoresports.com slash the dash barschool dash fund that's what I found and then if you are a small business email I believe it's barstool fund at barstoresports.com outline the situation hopefully we can help um okay golf quickly to golf probably the most wholesome and just genuinely fun watch of golf I've ever had. And I say that, you know, like you're going to compare watching Tiger win a major, but those are stressful. Those are like intense. Those are like watching your favorite team try to win a Stanley Cup

or try to win a World Series. Like this wasn't, and it was just, it was just fun. Like you actually, if the ball went into the hole or didn't, it didn't really matter because you were watching for the interactions. We're talking about Charlie and Tiger Woods. So Tiger is the biggest draw, obviously, in the history of golf. arguably in the history of sports or at least up there in the history of sports. And now you've got the guy who is so protective of his privacy and his family that he named his

yacht privacy. He clearly has gone through a ton with the media over the last 30 years. He's been up. He's been down. He's been the greatest of all time. He's been laughed at. He's liked the media. He's despised the media.

He's got two young children. Charlie's 11 years old. and after he won the Masters, it became very clear that Charlie, you know, Charlie and his family were there. It became very clear, and they talked about it since then, like Charlie really got into golf

after Tiger won the Masters last year. And then they kind of shocked every, I mean, we had those videos pop up earlier this year of like Charlie's swing, and we all were kind of like, oh shit, looks like Charlie could swing, like, okay. And then his results started to pour in. He started to win a couple little events.

And then out of the clouds, they announced that they're going to play in the father's son. So, you know, everybody who was like, Tiger's so protective that I can't believe. Are we allowed to even be talking about Charlie's suing? Well, now he's going to be on fucking TV in front of the entire world,

playing alongside Tiger Woods and not just playing alongside him, but dressed exactly like him to the point where he wears an outfit that if someone else wears it on Sunday, we essentially demand that they're kicked off the PGA tour and that their card is like burned in front of their face. And here he comes wearing the exact same outfits. He's got the same mannerisms. He's got a lot of the same qualities in parts of his game.

he's fist pumping, he's fucking twirling on the range, he's twirling out there, and it was awesome start to finish. Yeah, I think it definitely exceeded expectations, and we already had super high expectations going into it. And I think it did start when they were on the range, and their mannerisms were the exact same. The swing is very similar, but the step back and watch the ball go, that's the one where they do that and all synced up.

It was just crazy. And the other thing was Charlie played well. Like he played really well. He looked like he was having a good time. Tiger looked like he was having a good time. And that's really what it's all about. And I know we talked about it a couple weeks leading up to where people are like, oh, he's only 11 years old.

Don't put all these expectations on him. Those people are dead quiet right now because the weekend went so well where clearly Charlie had a good time and that's all anybody really cares about. And yeah, he can go do whatever he wants. He's 11 years old. A couple years from now, he can be doing everything he wants. If he wants to turn pro and golf someday, God bless him. But he can do it every once.

But for this weekend, him and Tiger playing together, they had such a good time that I can't see how it could have gone any better. Yeah. And like to that point, Trent, I don't understand these people that say, like, if we tweet like, holy shit, that fistpup was amazing. I love Charlie. How does that equate to Charlie better win 20 masters or I'll fucking kill? Like, what do they, what do you mean like the ex-pect? Like, okay, like I'm just commenting the fact that this little miniature Tiger Woods, which is literally by DNA and scientific. definition, that's what he is.

Like, this little miniature Tiger Woods is doing really cool shit that's kind of similar to what Tiger Woods does so much so that they're dressed the exact fucking same, playing the same game and the same tournament with the same name on the leaderboard. Like, they're just doing it all together. This is so cool. Like, we're so worried about, you know, Tiger Woods being over. He's 45. Is it like, going to come to it?

And now there's like a little bit of like, oh, there's another, there's a young, like, he's literally Tiger's son. He clearly loves the game. He loves to do what his father has done to the. point where he mimics his reactions, his celebrations, his excitement. Nobody is out there saying that like, okay, I now have this expectation bar. And if Charlie doesn't meet it, I'm going to be pissed. No one's saying that. We're simply just responding to what was put on television, which by the way is entertainment. We're responding to entertainment. We're responding to the fact that like Tiger and

Charlie clearly agreed that he was ready and he obviously was ready because he handled it phenomenally. he played great. They're using his drives all over the place. He had a ton of swagger. He was doing the fucking mover. He would just roast one right down the middle, turn around and just give dad the thumbs up. Like it was just so wholesome and fun. And if tomorrow it's announced that like Charlie Woods actually is quit golf and he wants to pursue soccer because that's fine. That's great. We had a great weekend. It was really, really cool. Like that's not, nobody's going to sit here and now require that we put this kid through the ringer for the rest of his life. Like, who gives a fuck? Nobody cares about it.

that. Nobody's saying that. What we're talking about is what was clearly put in front of us, which was awesome to witness. We all enjoyed it. Tiger enjoyed it. Charlie enjoyed it. Justin Thomas enjoyed it. It was just wholesome fun and people loved to get mad, be outraged about every little thing in the world. It was just good, wholesome fun, and it was great to watch. I would be lying if I said that if I heard Charlie Woods retired from golf tomorrow, I'd be a little bit sad. I got to be honest there and say that, but that's not the point at all. The point was that I was just like in the kitchen, like grabbing a water and my mom who was watching it would shout from the other room. Charlie's about to hit.

Charlie's about just really about like nothing other than she's excited to see him hit like another tee ball. And then at one point I was like, I wonder how far he's hitting it. Like is he hitting it as far as I am? And then he almost drove a 245 yard green where I was like, well, at this point he's just like about the same distance as I. Like if he's going to hit that, like he can hit it 260. like he can just like work the ball like if he gets a sweet spot like we're just his kid's amazing and from a general entertainment side like it was just flat out impressive not only seeing charlie but the other kids and the other fathers and everyone and like my brother would come in and be like that guy's

still playing it would be lee trevino and you're like yeah like this is what it's about it's about father's son it's about seeing all these guys like complete and play and like you know it's a family time of year so i thought it was just exceptional in so many different facets and obviously Charlie stuck out because, yes, he's the son of Tiger and everybody wants to see that. And it was just flat out cool how happy Tiger was to see the greatest player of all time not even hit a T shot because his son or roped one down like a drawl down the left hand. So like all that stuff was so fun looking back. Like it was, yeah, it was entertainment, as you said.

It was fantastic. He's the best player in the world. I mean, there's no, I mean, we're tiptoeing around it. It's he, he was so much better than we all anticipated. he's he didn't miss a shot his drives were perfect he recoils like tiger was there was a recoil off a day where he hit a draw around the bend over a bunker and recoiled it back the kid's 11 years old the fact that he knows how to recoil the fact that he knows when to walk putts in the fact that he knows to like hit it i mean him and tiger were having closest to the pin contest on fairways

and he was just beating tiger on the regular i mean on the regular and he was just drilling putts he wanted to make the eagle putts. Even when he missed a putt, he missed it on, like, the pro side and, like, would give it that, like, hand, like, oh, like, did you misread that, that? He's a cocky, mother. He's a cocky guy. I mean, he's the cockiest 11-year-old in the world. Like, I don't know if that's because, so, like, I was actually debating this with

my friends. Like, is it more difficult to grow up? Yeah, I'll ask this question to you guys. Is it more difficult to grow up as Tiger Woods or Charlie Woods when it comes to the game of golf and expectations. My friends say Tiger Woods because like he had all this pressure on him at two years old and like had to be good. And like if he doesn't, like none of that like even exists. But because that exists, like Charlie Woods now like has that like to fall back on like what you're saying. Like if he wants to play soccer, you play soccer, it doesn't matter. Like Tiger had to do what

he had to do. My point is that because Tiger was that fucking good and now Charlie plays golf, the expectation and pressure on him is 10 times what Tiger is. is, I thought. I'm going to say Tiger Woods was really difficult. Yeah. Yeah, because I think his, I think his dad was significantly,

I mean, we all read the book. Like his dad, there was no option. It was like he's going to be, he literally at this, like he was going around telling people that Tiger Woods is going to be more influential for society than like Gandhi.

Like he was literally telling people that. So like, Charlie Woods is like, he grew up a billionaire and he gets to putts around in his backyard. with four different greens that have all different grass in the world. And Tiger, apparently, from what he says, it's like, yeah, he can do whatever he wants. He really got motivated after I won the Masters and he loves golf, but like he can kind of do whatever he wants.

So, yeah, I mean, the expectations are high, but like, I think a lot of us already are in the place of like, do, we already got Tiger and everything else is gravy. Whereas, like, when Tiger was coming along, it was like, okay, what's this fucking thing going to be all about? Like, we better get something here. And then he had to deliver and he did. Whereas like, I think Charlie's, like, you're getting so many more people that are already defending the expectation game against Charlie. Nobody was defending that against Tyler.

Everyone was like, all right, motherfucker. What are you going to do here? Yeah, but the tiger scale is so micro, like when he was a kid growing up where Charlie, like the only, you know, parts of California and who Earl was telling people about, knew about Tiger and like, yeah, like on the news. He was on TV, national TV news too. I know. But still, he's not on the. macro scale of like expectations of Charlie Woods. Like I would say like when you see with like Gretzky's kids, I know it's it's tough. But like I'm on the side that it's harder to match expectations to be

Charlie Woods than than it is for Tiger. Like in a totally different example, you almost see it with the Ball's kids. Whoever Lanzo Ball is like promoting their kids or whatever like and going nuts about that. I think it's easier for them to try to grow up and succeed than it would be for Charlie to capture the game of the golf the way Tiger did. We just know what his potential is. And even though that's not fair, like we know that he comes from the family and the birth. The pedigree.

The pedigree of a man that's won more than anyone else in golf and tournaments and then he has all these majors. He's the best golfer of all time. We know that he could achieve that. And to achieve that is nearly impossible. When Tiger was upcoming, he could have won 10, 15 tournaments. And he's just regular. Eldrick.

Like, that was his... I think it's Charlie. That my opinion is that it's Charlie because as tough as it was for Tiger and Earl was obviously very involved and was heavy on the pressure. He's still blazing his own trail and making his own history.

Charlie was born and the second he touched a golf club, people were like, you know that your dad did that right? He was really, really good at it. And that really just boils down to what pressure you think is more intense. The pressure of a guy like Earl Woods where the pressure is obviously incredibly intense,

or society and expectation pressure where as soon as you are the son of someone who's great, if you're Michael Jordan's son, if you're a LeBron's son, if you're any of those guys, you are now growing up in an atmosphere where if you even attempt to do the thing that your father did,

there's already a benchmark for if you don't reach this, it's a letdown. Dude, if Charlie Woods makes it to tour, which he will, he'll be the greatest guy for all time, but if Charlie Woods makes it to tour, his first time he gets up to the tea, up to the T-box at Augusta National.

He's going to be 19, 20 years old. He's going from Stanford, which, by the way, he's going to Stanford. Like, imagine him just going to, like, Florida State or something, like, close to, like, Jupiter. Like, if Stanford doesn't already send Tiger a picture of that locker, and also don't go to Oklahoma State. It's crazy that we're talking about Charlie going to college.

Hold on. Hold on. Word out. Me, me, Rigs and Lurch, were, like, the measured approach where... No, I don't give a fuck. He can play chess in three years. He can do it every once. Frank, he's like, he's going to Stanford. is true yes we need that voice i'm i'm that's the stuff that hey i want that to happen that's my opinion

i'm not i'm not i'm not i'm not touching an orb over here like i i genuinely want charlie woods to be successful sorry i want him to make millions of dollars and be a successful fucking athlete like that's the i'm the only one who wants the guy to fucking make some money around here like you guys want to play chess club i want the guy i'm making i'm brokering deals i'm calling nike like this is crazy like i want the guy to be successful listen when he stepped up to the first tee at Augusta National, they're going to put up a graphic of what Tiger did that year when he was at age and what Charlie's going to do that year.

And let's say Charlie Woods makes the PGA tour and goes 10 years without winning a tournament, which is impossible, right? Like we talk about those Pat Perez. It's impossible to win golf tournaments. You have to be the best of the best. And like if Charlie just like plays on tour and like does all right, he's like almost all those comparisons.

it's like almost a failure. You know, like, not a failure, but like he's always going to be compared to like, oh, at this age, your dad was like, he won 32 tournaments and you have like three. Like, that's brutal. Like what's like what's happening? So I feel bad for that aspect, but he's a cheat. He's going up against an unachievable number, I think. Like it's just crazy town the numbers that he has to go up against.

Tiger's comment of he's starting to ask the right questions. Oh, I love that. Like me thinking about the galaxy. Honestly, when I think about that, I couldn't even dream what those are, just like I can't think of when we talk to my show, like about where the galaxy like starts and stops. Like,

what are those things? The fact that Tiger's alluding to him, like, starting to ask the right questions, get into the game of the golf. And then like, he props us up for this weekend that we just saw. Don't do this thing.

Just a rip the ball around the golf course was magical. Charlie played too well this weekend. He played. I agree with that. He played too well. I would say a tough one. Don't show me a fucking fist pump if you don't want me calling Stanford saying this kid's coming in five years, five or six years.

Don't like don't give me a fist pump. And it was shot for shot of what his dad did. I'm sorry, man. Like he played too well. When I was watching with a couple buddies at my friend's ass, we were going fucking crazy for his D shots. Like, come on Charlie. And he would rip one.

That one that he turned around and gave a thumbs up to his dad, I went, it was like the islanders run the Santa Cup. I was like, I was like, he's the cockiest 11 year on the world. I was, I was putting my hands on my head tearing. I'm like, this kid is, it's crazy. Like, and don't give me that chance to do that. You've now awakened a beast inside me that I know that this kid exists, that he's just going to be the best golfer ever.

Well, you say he played too well, but that actually works in his favor. If he, like, wants this as his future, he had to gain so much confidence from this weekend. Being like, I can do it. I can do it with crowds. I can do it with cameras. I can do it with my dad's. standing literally right behind me. Like, that's a big, got to be a big confidence booster for him.

And also 11 and 12 year olds, like, they're not, I mean, they're super young and they, like, whatever. But, like, there's like, isn't there that Netflix or golf channel show of, like, that tour of 12 year olds where, like, they're just fucking incredible golfers? What's that, what's that called, that show? Lurch, didn't you watch it? Didn't you watch it? Is that the short game?

Is that the short game? It's on Netflix, I think. Did we lose Lurch? Oh, no, I don't know. I don't think so. I thought somebody in our crew watched it. Yeah, somebody watched it. but it's just like a documentary on these like tours.

I think maybe we're talking about a 12-year-old Pete's dad or something. I watched the show on a plane. These kids are fucking good, is my point. They go around the country and they shoot fucking under par. It's like, don't cry me a river about expectations when this kid's stepping up hitting a 275 down the middle and hitting it to three feet and knocking in an eagle. Like, well, I mean, he was 210 out and ripped a five wood around a fucking bunker.

He was 175 out. 175, whatever. But he did rip and drive 245 that like blew. Well, the pen was 245 and he was short. So yeah, he probably hit it 225, 230. Like he took, we're saying 275. He took more divvits in those rounds than Frankie and I have combined hitting our life. Yeah.

They were perfect. He's really good at golf. He's better than I thought. And there's one thing of like seeing a guy, a kid and 11-year-old, like seeing his swing earlier this year, that's one thing. Like you can look good on the range. He just went out in a tournament. And yeah, it was a scramble fine, but like they were taking his ball all day long. He was, he, he, Tiger was literally doing what I do in the four-man scramble,

which is like, you guys hit it out there. I can't hit it that far. Fine. We're just going to walk up to the fairway now because he was that good. He wasn't missing. So, yeah, like his game is fucking sharp. His game is very good right now. I thought around the greens was incredibly impressive.

Like, he was chipping it closer than Tiger a lot, which like those, you take all distance and all like, sure, there's an element of like, okay, if he's driving the ball, 22, 230 yards. Like it's a little easier to like hit it straight when you're not hitting it 330 yards. So like fine. His short game is just awesome. Like his touch was great. His puts look good when they did miss.

They like barely missed. And he legit outpitched, outchipped like Tiger a bunch where he hit it in there close. So his game was sharp. He also clearly had an element of like stepping up and playing as well or better than he ever has under the most intense pressure he's ever felt. Like Tiger was saying like that's his first. eagle the third hole he just eagled it on his own ball and tiger's like that's his first eagle like he's never made eagle before three holes into his fucking tv debut playing in a in a champions tour event

and he makes eagle like he just steps up to the plate so having those qualities awesome you guys are absolutely right in that like if he goes on tour and wins 20 tournaments and like three majors which is a fucking all-time career hall of fame hall of fame landslide career it'll be a appointment. Like one because like you can't show up to a tournament be woods have the red and black have tigers you're literally the greatest player of all time is your is your is your dad and probably your coach and like your caddy and everything else and then just like not perform up to the level that tiger woods did otherwise it's like what are we doing here like this guy you know like if he's if he finishes like you know 27th on them if he has like a Kevin Kisner type career which by the way

Kevin Gisner's like Kevin Gisner's career is phenomenal. The guy's going to make like $30, $40 million. He's won the guy. Like if you have, if he goes and has a Kevin Gisner career, everyone will be like, oh, man, what happened? I mean, unless like tigers. That's an issue with the media. Right.

Unless Tigers, like, stats become like Gretzky where we've now gotten to the point where we don't even care. I mean, people care about Gretzky stats, but like Connor McDavid is the best player in the league. won't even come close to Wayne Gretzky's numbers. And we all think, kind of, like, McDavid is the best golf or hockey player, like, of our generation and, like, an awesome Matthews and Mitch Moore, you know what I mean? Like, if he gets, what were we going to say?

Sorry, but the last name is the difference. No, I know that, but, like, if it becomes a point where, like, he's the best of his generation and, like, 24 wins in 10 years and five majors is, like, number one of his 10 years or something, like, there's nothing you can do about that. Like, if that's just, if golf becomes, like, if the, The parody in golf becomes so incredibly difficult that it becomes impossible to win five majors out of the last, whatever, 10. Like, we can't hold that against him. Like, if he's, if he's number one after his 10 years of playing, regardless of what that number is, it's fine.

I'm just saying that Tiger's numbers are so ridiculous. And I don't want Charlie Wood's step up to the first team being like, I can't. Like, you're already a loser. I mean, you can't win 82 tournaments. He can't. Well, I think that's like the media side is just like, whatever Charlie does in his career, I will be a fan boy. of because basically like what his dad did and how much like joy that family has brought me in a weird wet you know like I've just been a fan of them because it is unfair he could win all four

majors over a 15 year career be a no doubt hall of famer and be a disappointment in like media's eyes which is a shame in the wrong way I actually think I think there's the middle ground there I think I think if he had the career that you just described I think people would be like that's fucking good. See, the word disappointment, I think is like hard. It's a hard word. Like, I think we can, like, I don't know that disappointment. Like, and I said failure before, which definitely isn't the right word.

Like, it's like, it's almost like, like, you have, we have unrealistic expectations. Right. Like, what it should be. Like, we want another woods. We want a woods to come up with a hundred wins. So I will say, like, if he, if he, if Charlie went out and did have the type of group, if he wins even like a major and then he wins fucking a few PJ Torr. events. Like I think everyone would actually be like, dude, that's really impressive. Like you came out,

you had all these expectations. You had to bear kind of the cost of like having the name and having every single time you tee off and per. We always laugh about the phrase of like, nobody cares what you shoot. Well, guess what, Charlie? Everybody cares what you shoot every time you play golf ever because you've been, you're a wood. You have the blood. You're part of the bloodline. And so I do think you're right. I think there's a little bit of a middle ground that people will find. And like, Think about how fucking hard it is to get on the PGA tour. We talk about Monday qualifiers. Guys going out and shooting like 64, 65 don't qualify for an event on Monday

because everyone is so good at that level. And these are the guys that aren't even on the PGA tour. And now we're talking about like, if he were able to make it to the PGA tour, you're one of the top 125, 150 players of the sport of golf on planet Earth, which has however many billions of people, there are however many tens of millions play golf. You're a top 100 to 200 of them in the world. Like, that's amazing. And so if he could get to that level, it'd be incredibly impressive.

It's just, like, he probably, too, on a personal, and he's 11 now, so he probably doesn't give a fuck. But, like, on someday, if he does pursue the sport and he gets the point where he's at Stanford and he's now trying to make it on the PGA tour and he does make it on the PGA tour, like, he's always in his head probably going to compare himself to, like, okay, like, I need to win this amount. I want to do that. And that makes it even harder because you've got, like, you've got.

like Tiger, you're right, there's an element of like Tiger was blazing his own trail. And yeah, he had the Nicholas thing like above his bed and everybody. But like he was able to kind of go out and every mark that he set was the mark that like he set. And and yeah, again, like if you go back, they did talk about how like actually he's a couple years ahead of Nicholas at this pace. But really it was such a different kind of era. It was enough years later that like it was, he was doing his own thing where it is going to be benchmarked. against Tiger Woods his dad all the time, which is going to make it difficult.

But, like, he's got, like, currently, again, he's fucking 11. So I understand what he. But, like, he's got it, like, he's fucking adorable. He's got a great look to him. He has the swagger. He fucking plays the game at an incredibly high level already. He clearly can handle the pressure. So, like, he seems to, like, as much as you can have it at this age

and, like, have it at being 11. he seems to have it. Right. And Tiger drops these tidbits that just get me so excited, but I'm trying to temper my expectations, if you will, and what that is for him. But like, I just want to, I just want to watch fun, good golf. But Tiger says these lines of like, oh, he's asking the right questions. Or I was excited to see that he took his game from the range to the course. And you're just like, God, these things are like, you're not, that's just a lot for my mind to take of what I should perceive this kid. Like, I don't even know how talented he is. And the like 11 age group.

Like, is he like top 1,000 in the world? Like, I have no idea. There were other, I mean, the other kids were older, but like Cochers' son is a fucking stick. So is that he knows all these kids. All those kids are phenomenal. They're phenomenal. Absolutely phenomenal. I mean, Cochers' son may have been the best player on the golf course.

He had some swagger too. He was walking in putts. He was like. He was like. He looks exactly like Cochoo. It's like your dad wears sketches for a living. But he's also fucking good. He's, I mean, whatever.

Cochers son got on my nerves a little. bit. I want that to be a robbery, like Charlie Wood versus Cochers' son, because he had a look to him now as like, go wash my ball or something. I didn't like, whatever. How old is that kid? 13, 14. I'm not going to start fucking robbery. Maybe we should temper our talk about it. I mean, hey, don't put them on TV

then. I mean, like, it's crazy. I mean, whatever. It's, I don't know. It's, it's crazy. It was on fucking national television. It's true. Like, the Little League World Series is on people, people break down those games. They go crazy for that shit. They go crazy for it. There's like a whole, there's a fucking

cult around it. It's like literally the only thing that's on TV for for a month straight in the summer. What is it? Todd Fraser went to Tom's Rivers or whatever it is. They always see that one stat. Tom's Frazier. Tom's Rivers, New Jersey or something like that. I mean, it's always, they write it on every single time he gets up. He was on the 2020, whatever. They played Rutgers. Yeah. The whole thing. In the moment when I really let my, when I really would let my mind wander about the potential future of Charlie Woods was when, was the moments between him and J.T. Because they're very buddy, buddy. It was very awesome watching them interact all weekend, but then you say you flash forward 10, 15 years, and they're battling it

out for this major or that major. And they're either, if that happens again, this was me letting my mind wander. I mean, they're going to play those PNC clips of, you know, JT and Charlie mucking it up. And then it's like, oh, here we are in 2035 and they're battling down the stretch. Just like when, I mean, that happened with Jeter. And I think it may have been, was it Todd Frazier and Jeter or someone else in Jeter where they were at Yankee Stadium and Jeter's standing next to a Little League World Series player at shortstop during the national anthem. And then he was playing against him in the World Series. They were like, well, 17 years ago, he was on the same field.

It's like they love that shit. I love that shit. That shit's awesome. It is awesome. It's very cool. We've got like potentially a really cool future, but he is 11. So it's like we kind of, it's going to be a ways. That's what's, he's not entering Stanford next year, which sucks.

No, but like the draw hole, for example. like if JT pushes one on the 13th of Augusta and April, like they're just going to slap, draw hole over the screen and replay that highlight. Like that's just going to be a thing. So Kevin Clancy texted me saying there's no way that, like, Charlie Woods wrote that, right? Like, if you look at the, if you look at the handwriting, like, the,

like, come on. There's no way an 11-year-old wrote that. And I said Charlie Woods has the best handwriting in the world. But I mean, okay, but like Tiger could have just written it ammed it to him, but like, go put this by JT's ball. You know, like that's still. Yeah, yeah, I was thinking, or like his little book that for each hole, maybe like, I mean, you think they'd talked about the hole or like maybe the night before or

during the driveway. And on his book, it says draw hole or something. And like he ripped it off that book who clearly like La Cava or someone else like drew or wrote and he put it there. That's what JT said after. JT said that it was from a practice round. Like they had done the practice round and it was somebody hit it in the right. I think it was, I think like literally Charlie or Tiger's like pushed one a little out to the right.

And I believe it was JT's dad, Mike, who said it's a draw hole. And they like wrote it down and like their notes. And then I think that ball was actually JT's dad's ball that Charlie put the note by. And JT just picked it up. And it said draw hole, which was like a little throwback trip. So that's a little bit more believable. But, but I mean also when you're 11, like, you know, like your parents will write like notes to your teacher for you and shit that you give. And it's like, oh, he didn't write this.

Like, well, no shit. He's 11. Like, okay. So, I mean, there's an element of that. But that stuff, it was great. Like, J.T. picking him up after the round being like, do you have fun dude and stuff like that is cool? That will get replayed again, if Charlie ever ends up on that level. But, like, I mean, JT will be, you know, eight, nine years younger than Tiger is now when Charlie gets to the age that Tiger first won the master.

So, like, they, if he does end up on a trajectory that a lot of. that a lot of us are really trying to say we're not giving the expectations to, but clearly are. If he ends up on that trajectory, they will absolutely cross paths for like a decade or more out there, you know, trying to win tournaments.

And with that whole background, it could be very, very interesting. I was also thinking when Frankie was saying, when they do like the introductions to like the first tea, they're like, you know, Tiger Woods, you won 38,000 times and then Phil Mickelson gives them like, all right, all right, all right.

like I could just see like Charlie Woods, son of tiger, you know, like as his championship trophy in terms of the presentation of the tour. I don't know that they're going to say that. That would be pretty good. Oh, well, I'm just, you know, it's okay to laugh. I like it. I like it. Because up to that point, if it's his first tee,

that could be his biggest achievement. That's his biggest achievement. That was the joke that didn't lay. I just wasn't sure if you were serious. Was it a joke or you think they'll actually say that? I don't think they'll actually say that, but it's just more of a joke. But, you know, okay. Is there a roof I could jump off of or no?

I'm on the second floor. I'm on the second floor. You think it'll do any damage or am I still have to go to the hospital? Maybe on your fair body it could. I have a deck outside, so that may stop my fault. It wasn't clear to me if it was a joke. I'm sorry. I just, it wasn't that clear.

I don't know. I apologize. We can keep talking about it if you want. No. Should I restate it? No, no, please no. Let's see how long we can keep this. moment ago.

Oh, boy. Is this a video podcast of this going on? Riggs, let's see what your heart. Let's see what everybody's heart rate is right now. That's a, you know, Tren, that's a great idea. We should look at the whoop and we should check out the situation. I,

we were talking before the show about our heart rate and our respiratory rate, and how everybody's checking it pretty much nonstop, especially with the holidays coming up, because you don't want to have signs of COVID-19 and how good whoop is. been with that. We've been on the, we've been on whoop. We've been rocking whoop. We've been wearing the wearable band, uh, pretty much the entire year. And it's great. We're obsessed with it.

I'm in a few different groups now with some of my buddies. You check in with your pals. If you want, see how recovered they are. Uh, try to guess what maybe they were doing last time. Maybe they're drinking some, uh, some, a few too many adult beverages, as our friend Tiger occasionally likes to say. Um, and that's because you're rocking with attracts your, your recovery. It tracks your, uh, respiratory rate. It tracks your sleep. You don't even have to prompt it to it just but i hear some people saying like oh you have to tell it when to start when it's just like literally knows when you're sleeping and it's like santa guys knows when you're sleeping knows when you're awake um so we get involved there's a lot of amazing technology that goes

into this swoop but the fact that it knows when i fall asleep and as far as i'm concerned again i'm not you're never really there in the moment that you fall asleep it's interesting you think about what like the moment you fall asleep you're never really there like i couldn't tell you it's not like, I'm now going to sleep and you press a button on your shoulder and you fall asleep. You just have to lay there until hopefully it happens. And the whoop knows the exact second that it happens. It's weird that sleeping is a thing that like, like you just go into a different state. It's almost like, I don't know.

It's like that's a miracle. Like sleeping is a miracle. You just, you enter a different state for eight hours and then you just reemerge into the world. Like, what is that? What the fuck is that? Scary is what it is. You know what's also freaky? What is that?

Is you get eight hours? That's the amount that people want you to get. Doctor recommend it. You know, I only know that because of stepbrothers. No. Like, you need your eight hours. Whenever I think of how many hours you need, I hear stepbrothers' dad's voice. Really?

Yeah. That's the only way that just can't. It's just like the, no, I know that I, it's just general knowledge. but I know that when I think of it where I'm like when I'm doing the math like all right it's 12 o'clock I'm going to be fucking like I got to wake up at 7 I hear like you need your 8 hours I hear his voice fucking weird every time every time it freaks me out when I think about it so if you sleep for eight hours that means you sleep a third of every day so if you live to be 66 years old hopefully everybody lives longer than that but you slept a third of those years you were

sleeping you were unconscious that's 20 years of sleeping kind of lazy like people say he lived 85 that's a great life but and you did congrats to that person but it's like a third of that you were just unconscious also all the times you stayed in your fucking apartment or like you were just like waking up taking showers like you really only lived like 10 years like if you do it if you really knock it down it's like when you actually experience things it's it's very very very small you can get the press quick If you're playing like a video game or something like that. Oh my God.

Oh, what about when you've been? Okay. We're going to go to wop.com, w-h-o-op.com. And if you go there today, you can join for $0 when you sign up with their six-month membership.

Okay, we can continue the depression talk if you would like. I was just going to say when you when you binge watch TV shows it's right I would like to you are because that that's time well spent I would say yeah I guess so yeah it's a little bit like like meat like

like like you said showering or like doing the dishes or like all these little things that's like you add up all that and yeah you probably get you maybe get 15 years of doing whatever you want yeah true like when we did our like stream when we did our 24 hour stream like that was like the longest

day ever, but we also were doing things. Like, that's like a memory. That's an event. Like, that's like, yeah, sure, we weren't out. I guess you can't equate it to, like, leaving your house and being in, like, the wind, like, actually, like, feeling sun on your feet. That's what I was originally thinking. You're, like, all that time, it's, like, spent, like, driving, commuting. But at least, like, commuting is, like, something. You're on a fucking train. You're moving into the city, like, whatever. Yeah. I don't know. Living. Trent, were you about to say meaningless before you said, sharring? You're all these meaningless, and then you cut meaning. I don't know what I was going to say.

Tasks that have no meaning. So yeah, meaningless. Well, then you said showering right after that. So I got a little concerned. That's like societal pressure. It's like, oh, we don't want this guy stinking up. You shower for the other people, don't you? That's interesting of what you put buckets into.

Like you said, like, time all spent is watching a TV show. Like, it is different how people break up their day and what is impactful. What's not? I think like necessities, like things that you do out of necessity. versus things that you do out of enjoyment, right? Like, watching a TV show is excited. Like, when I hop into bed, it's like everything else is done. I get to just fucking lay here and mindlessly consume this.

This is great. Whereas showering in theory, like, you're showering for a purpose to, like, prepare to go do something that you enjoy or something like that. But you have to, like, do it to get there. Right. Like, when I'm sitting eating an ice cream Sunday, like, that's as much, that's time well spent. Like, that's it.

But like, There's another third of your life. What? There's another third of your life that you just rattled off. Showering, and I shower, you know, I try to shower two times a day. Mostly it's like, you know, I shower at night. You shower two times a day? I try, like, I try to sometimes, like, if I'm sweaty or running around, I'd do it the same time,

but it's mostly one. It's mostly one. I mean, like, if I'm running around, I'll do it at night or whatever. But I tried shower in the morning. I don't know why I said night. I think people shower at night are crazy. Crazy. What is that?

When they tell me shower at night is a shower in the morning? that's just crazy. It's like you're sleeping, you're sweating in bed, like, I don't know. Jake Bass, explain yourself. I guess people say

that you're like dirty while you sleep. I don't know. I just don't like to get into bed dirty. You got these sirens in around? But then like you're like sitting in your own filth, like sweating underneath sheets for eight hours, and then you just like hop out of bed

and go onto your day. It's almost like you didn't shower since like, you didn't shower since like 10 o'clock last night. You're really, like, you know, a lot of things happened to your pores in those. time. I wash my face every morning. I have a skin care routine.

Is, um, is, is, um, is, um, showering a necessity to your health? To a certain point, I would think so. Yeah, right. Yeah. Hygiene, just like personal hygiene, I think affects your health. Right. But it's not too, a lot. Like you have to, you, you would have to go several days, I feel like for it to really have a negative impact. Several days. I would think, I would think months. Yeah. I think that, right? Yeah. Years. Because of society. and but then but I think you could go probably a month or two without showering you'd be fine like if someone went a year without shower would they be like

and then like everything else they did perfectly like worked out fucking brush their teeth twice a day whatever was like they fucking everything they did was perfect but they just didn't shower would they be significantly more unhealthy than I dude so I went hiking and it was on the trail for like a month and a half and when I came back I stunk for like two weeks my buddy said I know I didn't shower at all. There was like no bathing. Like it was like leave no trace. It was and I came back and my buddies were like when we first like you were horrible. You smelled horrible. And it didn't go off of like one shower. It went off of like molt with like five showers. It was,

did it affect your health? Not not my health, but yeah, the health of mother. So it is. I would guess you're more likely to get, you're more likely to get some sort of disease if you are not washing, right? Like, that's why we wash our hands is to, like, kill, like, everybody's obsessed to wash their hands now. So if you wash your body, it has to have some effect on, like, harmful particles entering your body and getting you ill. Yeah, like, it's just a cleaner.

It's just more clean people. Everything's clean. Like, we're talking about, like, COVID and flu and everything. See, that keeps talking about other people. But, yeah, no, I know. I'm talking, if, like, if I was just in a bubble and I just fucking didn't shower, Well, at a certain point, like, what if you've got to cut, Frankie? And you never bathe.

Like, that could grow in affection. Like, then you've got an issue that for your time. I mean, I'm never going to try this out. I'm just genuinely interested. Yeah. Jake Bass just, I think Jake Bass just copy pasted something from the internet, which is what he usually does. Oh, here we go.

Does. And it says, if you take it from a certified germ expert, you can skip showering for as long as you wish. You could probably go for as long as you want without showering without too much affecting your health says Jason Tetro, a microbiologist and author of the germ files. It's good to wash your, it's good to wash your privates every few days at least to be sure they are not at risk for contamination from fecal bacteria leading to UTIs, but the rest of your body can take care of itself. We got that from the germ files.

Right. Like how long have modern showers been around? Yeah, that's true. Not like that. long, but people have been bathing forever. Right. Wasn't one of my Frankie facts, like the bridal shower? Didn't they like take like, didn't they like take one bath? Or no. Or maybe it was, they used to only bathe like once every couple of years or something like that.

And that's why they would hold the flowers and the bouquet because it would actually mask the smell of the bride and the groom. Yes. That's a good one. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know about the, I mean, I guess that makes sense. in the germ files we're going to take that as gospel then yeah you don't have to shower so

frankie maybe you can just stop shower man i'm not going to do that because i enjoy my showers i took like an hour and a half one the other day and i you know you ever like sit there and it's like 30 minutes have gone by and you're like i really haven't done anything in here yet i haven't i haven't put any soap on i've just kind of just stood here you know what i actually do too like i bring my phone in now and i could just if it hits your back at the right angle because i have a little ledge on the other side of the shower that water doesn't spritz onto it so like if I just, if I just like in the morning or if it's really cold out, I just get in there real hot and I just scroll, you know, I scroll the phone and that could take, that could take 45 to,

I can watch a whole YouTube video. That's a true addict. That's a problem. But that's only if I really want to spend some time in there, you know? So I back myself around a bit. You've tweeted before, I've read one of your tweets concocted naked in the shower before. I don't know, maybe a couple of retweet. Those are little shower thoughts.

This could be the tweets. Maybe a couple, yeah, maybe a couple tweets. there. I'm trying to think. I usually I usually consume my content in the shower. Like if I have to. You're not creating your content. No, no.

I like a good Saturday morning shower. Those are definitely lengthier than my weekday showers. When I was in high school, like when it was like cold winter or like prior to a hockey game or something like that, I would take a long shower to warm my body up. Did ever do that? Yeah. Nice.

Warren shower was a long way. Before our golf matches, whenever we play these fucking four-man scrambles. I try, I act as though, and it does nothing for my body, but I try and get it on all the joints of the shoulders. Like, I'm like, I act like that's my therapy, the shower. Do you guys do the same? Like, I'm like, stretching in it. I let it hit certain spots. I'm like, all right, I'm doing something. I'm cracking. I crack my back in there, which is dangerous because you can slip and fall. I'll be dead in one of these hotel rooms. Yeah, I think there's a little something, too,

like getting warm water on like certain spots of your muscle, kind of loose. you up. I get it right. Like I lift my shoulder and I hit it right there and I do it a couple times. I'm like, oh, I'm loosening. I'm definitely loosening something up. Yeah. How bad of your shoulders. Really, really bad, dude. Really bad. My shoulders and both my elbows. I'm still waiting for a what's up doc to figure out one day are they just going to snap because like I know they're both torn. I know I have torn ligaments in both my shoulders and both my elbows. One day is it going to get so bad that there's no going back. Yes.

Because when I lift up, when I do the chicken dance, like for everyone listening, if you're a doctor, when I do like the chicken dance movement and I move my elbow out to the right, my shoulder pops right there. Can you guys hear that? No. No. Oh, oh, oh, right there. No?

Just hit the microphone so then we think we eat. Oh, whatever. It's loud, bro. It's popping. Okay. Get it closer. No? all right.

I just heard you rustling around. I couldn't. All right. Well, whatever. For everyone listening, when I do the chicken dance, it pops. And I hear it, it pops right on, like, the right side of the rotator cuff. And I can actually feel something move around. So that's got to be a torn ligament.

So it doesn't do that on the left yet. But I know one of these days I'm going to do something. And it's just going to go, boom. And I'm just going to be left with just a hanging fucking duck. Just golf podcast listeners about your shoulder and your elbows when I'm pretty sure you have access to doctors. Yeah, but you know, it's if I go to a doctor, I told you this, they're not going to let me leave. So I don't. That's my biggest fear.

I don't know. Have we talked about that? I've said to Kevin and John. That my biggest fear about hospitals is that I'm going to go there and they're going to be like, you can't leave. Yeah, it's true. Dude, I won't, I won't be able to do anything. Like I could play. Like, I play.

I'll find. That's what the problem with the shoulder is, is that it's all like over the shoulder stuff and drumming, like reaching for the fucking symbol or like playing the fucking like, when I'm playing the high hat, like a million times, my hand just goes numb. My whole arm just goes numb.

It locks up like a motherfucker. Whatever. It's not good. I don't think that's good. Somebody send me a detailed email as to what I need to do. Don't tell me to go get fucking physical therapy because physical therapy is not going to repair the shoulder muscle.

Would you take steroids? Do you take HGH? I would take anything. I would take anything at this point. What am I care about my fucking nuts shrinking? Good luck finding them anyway. It's like, who cares? Hey.

You know what I mean? Yeah, who cares? I got a little distracted by thinking about friends. And also is my, is surgery going to keep me out for a long time? Because that's what I don't want to do. I think shoulder surgery does keep you out for a while. Yeah. That's how I got to the band.

Smitty got shoulder surgery and I slipped right in there. Oh, I see. You're nervous. Yes, yes. And had I known that a global pandemic was going to shut the world down for nine months, I probably would have gotten it in the beginning of this. And I would have been crystal clean fucking, I would have been using my shoulder to fucking wipe my ass.

I would have been the most nimble person in the world. This thing would have been like Gumby at this point. But it's gotten worse. Yeah. Whatever. okay all right all right that's good enough that's whatever it's fine i think briggs what were you thinking about he said he got distracted i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know if you played golf with you did you play golf with max homa yesterday i played 13 holes i got to tell you matt so it's

always really surprising when you play um golf with these guys like max is fucking he pipes the golf ball Like he was hitting it stunning, stunningly farther than, and like I, there were some drives that I hit pretty well, dude, and he was like, he was way up there. There was a par three uphill, it was 260 par three uphill. And he hit a three iron that was just nutted, like right at the flag. and I just was so stunned at his game, and we were just ripping around, like, we were just extremely casual cruising around,

like not even, no, no grinding, and he was a little Pat Perez asking. He just is really, so he's obviously somebody we're going to play in the scramble at some point. It might be this year, it might be next year, it might be in two years, who knows, he's obviously going to be a scramble opponent at some time at some point, and I'm very worried about him.

He's a problem out there. He rolls it extremely well. One thing I did want to bring up is we, so we're going to the first T and the starter says, like, hey, there's actually this young kid. He's a college-age kid who's from California. Max is a Cal guy. And he's wondering if he could join up for a few holes. You guys were like, yeah, absolutely. His name was Max as well.

And there was like, after the sixth or seventh hole, there's a little like halfway house or comfort station or every want to call it. Max, like, you want to get a couple beers? Like, yeah, absolutely. So we just get a couple beers. And this kid goes in there and he gets a couple trullies. And he goes up to the tee and just by himself, he just shotguns are truly. And then T's off. And Max and I were talking, we were like, man, I don't think I've ever seen anything.

Like he just did a solo. He's super nice kid. And he just, I mean, I guess, you know, your college age, you're looking to have like a fucking Sunday. But this was at, like, sunset. It was like 4.30 p.m. on a Sunday afternoon. We're on like the sixth hole. We're only playing 10 or 12. 12 holes. And he just went up to the tee by himself, shotgun to Trulley and teed off.

Did he yell what day was it? Sunday? Oh, no. Well, all of a Sunday. But there was maybe Saturday. Just fucking a little like for the, did he scream like for the boys or did he ask about the pizza reviews? See, that would have made sense.

Stockons are usually like, you're almost like trying to whip the crowd into a frenzy. Like it's a group thing. You get a couple guys doing it. And it's like, we're getting a shotgun these beers or these Trullies. so to just do it like almost secretive light on the first T is something and he didn't like ask us if we were like hey he you know like you're saying trend it a lot of times it could be celebratory like oh sweet birdie there you guys want a shotgun for that I'd be like all right yeah sure we'll do it or it might be like hey we're a group's only dragging right now like we should shotgun

something and it's fine I could totally understandable he just kind of did it solo and then teed off that was I mean I loved it I respected it but it was it was out of the clouds. Maybe he was nervous. It feels like he's like with a barstool guy and a pre-GA pro and he's like, I want to be cool and like, I'm going to show you I can shotgun be. I feel like that's very college-esque.

That's the vibe I'm getting from it. I feel like he was a little nervous and was like, I'm going to break the ice here, show him how fucking I can slug this truly down. Dude, it was like the seventh hole. Like we've been playing for fucking an hour and a half. Yeah, that's weird.

It was out of nowhere. It was very funny. but the kid was good. The kid had to, the kid Max had the most interesting shot to witness. So he's a good player, very solid player. And he didn't hit that ball particularly far.

He was hitting it like similar distance to me, so we didn't hit it that far. And we were playing the tips with Max and the second T. The kid kind of like hooked his T-Shouse. I was in the fairway, but he hooked it so didn't go very far. And he had like, I think he had said he hit a four hybrid in. And the pins like in the,

middle left part of the green and he hits this forehead that's drawing at like the left edge of the green so it looks like it's just going to miss the green left and it fucking lands short of the green bounces really high in the air and a little bit to the right right towards the pin and then gets over this ridge and spins and stops and me and me and homo were like what the fuck was that and the kid didn't even see it because it was like hooking left of the green so he was just like oh i'm like that's up there it's fine shot and he stepped up it was like 10 feet away made the put and it hit we could see two sprinkler heads. He literally hit the top, like, right of the sprinkler head.

He had to have. Kicked way up in the air. Oh, almost all my life. Whoa. Oh. Kicked way up in the air to the right, spun and stopped like 10 feet away. He was the best bounce I've ever seen in the in golf. Oh, shit.

Well, Arizona has a bunch of bounces during our scramble when fucking lurch hit that, that stone. And it came back into the fairway. Like, we had three balls out of bounds and you hit that, that. that rock and it just went right down the middle. I feel like Arizona is very much like you don't know what the fuck's happening when you hit the ball. You can land anywhere. Those who are listening to the audio version of this podcast, Riggs just went up top and I think he hit some sort of light fixture above it. Yeah.

Oh, nice tilt. He was telling that story about. That was a good expert tilt. And it was just he fucking crushed that light. Lurch, how long was your drive? You guys drove from, where did you drive from? horrible. Jersey to Florida. That is a long one. Although my brother, we started getting ketchup calls. He put on his Instagram account. He goes, we'll take anybody's catch up calls. So that actually

like expedited because every half hour or so, we'd get a call from somebody and talk to them for a little bit. Such a large family thing to do. The drive, I will say, I was like, this is almost a business idea. Like, when you're driving somewhere, you like activate an app that says like, I'm down for a catch-up call because everybody loves a call when you're on the call especially you got time you got nothing to do kind of chat with somebody you catch up people called me from all different parts of life it was great um but it was yeah it's a good 17-hour drive so we we left at 3 p.m. got to Fayetteville North Carolina stayed in a nice little holiday hand with a luscious bed I will say and then we got up at 6 a.m. the next day and finished it 17 hours is good that's a good vote for sure

I got a little head cold, though, from it, which makes me nervous beyond belief. My brother, that's... We mean head cold, I mean, it's... I got the sniffles. Okay. That's, yeah, it's not a good time. Something going on that, you know...

Right, I know something's going on. I'm just, you know... I've got something going on over here. I mean, I'm tucked in a little room here, and I just... A little head cold. That's tough. That's tough after a 17-hour drive

to come down with something that now may ruin or affect the way that you're next two weeks you're going to go down buddy you think that i don't know what's going on and i'm not worried about that all right you sit there and you're all black you always talk about the lighting in your room one of the first lighting days i've ever seen from you okay i know what's going on in my room and it's a nightmare over here it's an absolute nightmare did see i saw you hit the cough button and you took a little it's a good place of warranty i guess i will say the sun feels good when you're you know when you got a head cold they do say that that helps the recovery

I'm nervous. No doubt about it. I'm nervous. Yeah. I'm not seeing you. Honestly, best of luck with that shit. That's fucking that. I mean, that's a mental nightmare. And one would assume that you drove 17 hours to avoid potentially getting something at the airport. One would assume, but here we are. And we are. So that would really, I would suck if that was all for nothing. I could agree with you anymore here, eggs on this point. because I'll tell you what.

I don't know if there's a worst spot to be coming around whatever holiday you celebrate to be... Get the sniffles. The sniffles and potentially a cough from time to time. You want to be the furthest away from the sniffles as you possibly can from December 23rd, January 2nd. I couldn't tell you how people look at you when you might sniffle or cough.

It's a look of... I know there's a six-foot rule. You better not have... you can come my direction. Let me ask you, can you still, you have any issues with taste or smell? No, thank God, because if that goes, then I'm just, I might just go out.

I know someone that's lost this. I know someone. Quickly, you know where I'm at, Trent, is where you touch the Atlantic Ocean for that very first time. Barrow Beach. That's where I'm at. I'm very close with someone that got, that contracted the virus.

and they this was like a month ago they still do not have smell they have taste can't smell a thing can't smell a thing it's crazy

just can't fucking smell like put Vicks in front of their nose and there's like no nothing good time to run the no shower policy you want you just not shower for the next two months

well yeah I mean it's like you see them like it's just like I mean the other night it was like someone was burping like in the group like they had onion french onion suit when they were burping. And I was like, who the fuck is burping?

And the person I was sitting next to them was just like, I had no clue. I'm like, are you fucking give, you can't, you can't smell what's going on right next to you right now? Because that, that's unlivable to sit next to that. And like, no, nothing. I mean, I'm talking, think of like the most potent shit in the world, just not even a sniff. It feels like a superpower. Yeah. I, um, I know, I know someone who got Corona around August, they said.

and they still can't really taste. The taste one would fuck me up because, like, what does that even feel like? You know? Like, you just eat, like, sour patch kids and you don't get anything? I mean, Trent, don't you, Trent, show me both your hands right now, all right? There you go.

All right. Yeah, that's why I've been eating so many sour patches kids know that I don't have corona. So I'm like, oh, yeah, I can taste that one. Oh, I can taste that one. Let me ask you guys something. Do you guys, are you guys, I've had some steak. with the fellas here.

Are you guys filet mignon guys? Or, you know, tell me what your best cut of steak is because I think I've been a certain cut. Is that the term we're using cut? And I've now switched based off of eating something off of a friend's plate.

They gave me a little piece of theirs and I'm now switched forever. I'm a, my favorite meal, probably my favorite meal in the world is a filet mignon with mashed potatoes and probably asparagus. That's probably my favorite meal that you can have.

I would say, like, I'm not, I love steak, and I'll eat steak whenever it's put in front of me, but I'm not a steak guy. Like, I'm not a part of steak Twitter where if you say, I like my steak medium, I don't jump down your fucking throat. Like, I would like a good filet mignon as well. So I'm not a, filet mignon is just not enough meat when they serve it. It's usually like eight or 12 ounce. That's just not going to cut it.

It's thick. Yeah, but I'm a bone-in rib-eye guy. Then I'll just gnaw in that bone. But yeah, I'm that way. So I've always been a filet guy, filet mignon. It's my go-to. It's juicy. I like the consistency of it.

It's more of like it melts in your mouth. Like it's almost like you're eating buttered steak. So to me, like that is, when you go to a really good steakhouse, maybe you get a chart on the outside. It's the best of both worlds. I got this at a great steakhouse the other night, tellers. It's a place on Long Island.

Shout out to them. They're also struggling, even though it's a high class fucking steakhouse. They need their huge fucking bills coming in. People think that all these expensive places just do well. They don't. They have expenses because they're fucking places ridiculous expensive. This place used to be a bank. And now it's a restaurant.

So it's called tellers. And their wine seller is the old like money seller. Really fucking cool shit. Really cool shit. But I got a fillet. Yeah, vault. Is that what you mean? Vol.

So I had a filet. And then my buddy just sluged. Livered off a little piece with, you know, just a little piece of a New York strip. And this was an expensive New York strip. I got to tell you, I enjoyed, that was the most flavorful steak that I had ever gotten. I think, the filet mignon doesn't have the flavor. It's got the consistency and the chewiness and like the melt in your mouth. It's satisfying.

But if you want to talk straight flavor, holy fuck did that New York strip blow my socks off. Really? Also, now, I heard there's another cut that's a mixture of filet and New York strip. Is that the T-bone? I don't know that. But I will say it might just be a grass is always a greener case, too, because you've been gnawing on that filet all dinner. And then you get one piece of something else. It was just a little firmer and a little just like you bit into it.

It was almost like you bit into an orange. It all just, ooh, it all just fucking juiced into the, I was like, whoa. You ever get a cut of a tri-tip steak? I mean, I'm 160 pounds. Like, I really don't. I'm not the big, like, I'm just this, no, dry tip to me sounds like a big Midwestern man. So either way, well, support your local business.

Monmouth meats, shout it to him. This guy, Stu, he's got some delicious meats in Red Bank. What is it called? A tri-tip. See, that's, yeah, that's out of my league. Dude, it's a hunk of meat. I will say that thing weighs about the size, like, weighs as much as you. Right.

I knew it right when you said it. I mean, I got to stick with the New York strip or the eight-ounce fillet. Once you start getting into bone and rib-eyes and T-bones even, like, I'm just, don't even. I mean, that's all going to go inside this body, no chance. Put a steak on a basket of fries and let the juices fall right down on those fries and all those things after. I'm going to try a New York strip next time, Frank. Yeah, man, I'm telling you, it was fucking, it was juicy. It was really, it's thick enough to still get you through the filet, like, factor.

Yeah, it was good. It was good. I'm sure a lot of these people are going to be really nice about our assessment of steak. All the people are listening to this. Because, you know, Glennie Ball has tried to get into the whole meat business real quick with, like, brisket and smoking meats. And he got ran out of town real fast with one fucking meat cook. As fast as you can get around here. I'm letting you know now, I don't give a fuck about what your favorite steak is.

I just wanted to know it from the boys. Like, maybe a New York strip's, like, not that good or it's not, I don't care. I just, I enjoyed it more. And I thought I'd share that on the podcast. Some people, what is it? There's like an old famous story, is it from four? But like if someone, he would like interview people and if they put like a sauce on their steak before they bid into it, the guy would have a real problem with them.

Because like he wanted you to enjoy the meat. So before you threw like your A1 steak sauce. I agree with that. Yeah. I do too. I do too. That's like mother, that's like people who put salt on their pot on their pasta before. before you take a bite.

Like, did, like, well? You don't think that we cooked it well? Like, we made it delicious. Like, my mom will make it for somewhere. I watched her put salt in the water and, like, do it the right, like it's salted. Like,

like, try it first. And then, like, dude. Right. I put a little TLC in that. No,

no, but I put a little TLC into that meal and then all of a sudden you're just going to cover an A1 sauce. And now it's just like, why did I even make it the way I made it. Like, you're just going to make a taste like a hotty pot. Right.

I know, I know nothing about. steak, but I know that using steak sauce is incredibly disrespectful to the presuming. It's like, it just tastes like the steak sauce. Yeah. Right. Right? Like, yeah, it's just crazy.

That steak, regardless of where you get it, will now taste like an A1 steak. Because no matter what kind of, no matter what kind of seasoning or no matter how many times they smacked it or put peppers on it, it's just fucking A1 steak. You know? Yeah. It's true. It's like you start putting truffle on shit and it's just truffle. There's this guy that I follow.

He's a funny do on Instagram. I've been following him. He does impressions of things. Like he's a funny guy, man. He's way out there. But I don't know his fucking Instagram handle. But he does impressions of things. So he was like, he did an impression of the Titanic iceberg watching the movie Titanic.

And he's like going through the whole thing. Like it's a TikTok. He's like, you know, guys just wait until the end. I'm telling you. And he's like talking as if he's an actor. He's like, this scene was really hard to like whatever. It's very, very funny.

I mean, he's like, you see all those people in the water? I did that. Like, I did that. But he also does one of Truffle talking to the other flavors in the meal. It's very funny where he's like, I know, I don't know what you guys have been working with here, but I just got brought on. And if you guys all just follow me in line, we're going to get to the place that we need to get to. But it's going to be my show.

Like, I don't want to be cocky about it. But, you know, I've been years on the business. And I've noticed that no matter what I do, I just take control. and if you all just like accept that now we're going to have a much better working experience. He's like, you know, you have your peppers, you have your onions. But once the truffle comes in, it's over. Like, it's just a truffle meal, which is so true. It's so true.

I got to find this guy. I got to plug them. I mean, he's got a million followers. I'm glad nobody on here is a steak sauce guy because that's weird. I've never, you know, I just never say yes. They're like, would you like any sauce? Steak sauce. I just like, nope, you should eat the steak.

JT. First Man. As a kid, I remember using A1 sauce, but that was a stupid fucking. But I will say, if you bite into the steak and then you ask for it after, I got no problem with you. You know, like, I don't enjoy your meal. It's just the same thing as me getting Coca-Cola. Same thing as me get Coca-Cola. Like, I'm not going to get pressured into this. I gave the beer and the drink a chance.

Today I want to Coke. I'm going to get a Coca-Cola. That's just how it is. Yeah. Okay. Store. It at Barshaltsports.com. We got a bunch of good items on there.

So it's a good time to remind you. You've got to get through winter. We got hooties. We got be it. all kinds of fleeces. There's just more more items in there than you could possibly imagine. We sell a ton of them because we got a lot of options and they're very cool. So do yourself a favor. Go to store.orgal sports.com. Obviously, we prefer if you check out the forplay line of things, but there's a lot of different options. There's different franchises. There's very,

very, very unique and cool logos across all of our different franchises. So go to store.com and check them out the women, the LPGA, finished up, Jen Youngcoe, who's number one in the world, who only played in four events the entire year, won $1.1 million to win the whole thing. I didn't catch pretty much any of it, because Charlie and Tiger played. So, like, yeah, if this were any other week, as someone who has many, many times gone on all sorts of late night Twitter runs about women's golf, this just wasn't the weekend for me. Like, there's no, there's no other, there's no other man, woman, any athlete on earth that would have trounced or trumped me watching Tiger Woods and Charlie

Woods playing golf together this weekend. So I just wasn't able to really watch much of it or catch much of it. She ended up winning, I believe, by like five. And again, it was not in the country for most of the entire year due to the pandemic. Only had played three events up to this one. This was her fourth, and she won it by five shots, number one in the world, $1.1 million. And just a pretty dominant performance. So awesome work. I didn't catch it. You know, I didn't either, but I also didn't catch a lot of the Charlie Tiger stuff because the coverage was fucking shit. Oh my God. How do we not talk about that? It's fucking shit, man. How is it 2020? And we're, and I'm still thinking in my head, boy, they should just put the golf on. You know what?

You know what, Trent? Like, we have a lot of reach and access on this podcast. We've interviewed fucking professional golfers. Our boss has been inside the White House interviewing the president in the free world. We have to have access to someone that makes a decision on programming on TV. We have to know someone that's willing to speak for the industry.

And if there is an answer, and if there is a fucking real answer, then they would have no problem on coming on this goddamn show while we're talking about cuts of meat and us not showering and a real fucking chance to speak to our fucking world and our leader, I mean, our listeners, and be like, hey guys, I know that you guys complain every single fucking weekend about this, especially when something

like this happens with Charlie Woods playing and then we got to re-show it. But here's the reason why it's impossible for us to achieve what you're asking us. Then I will be all ears. I will apologize and I will go forward and I'll get all the subscriptions I need to get. But until then, I will not accept what's happening. I won't accept it. And I think everything you're saying is fair. And if that person, whoever they may be,

wants to come on this show and speak their peace, please do it. But we've been running into this, I mean, ever since we started this podcast, we've been beating the drum about them not showing golf on TV. And we always hear a litany of excuses. And what we always say is just figure it out. Just figure it out. It can't possibly be as complicated as they're making it seem.

It's TV. There's golf on TV. We want to see it. Just show it to us. There's no excuse. It's stunning because the, the cameras are there, right? So, like, they're just going to, in an hour,

you can't watch it now, but an hour, it's just going to be on. So, like, well, no, no, how about you just turn the fucking cameras on now at this moment in time, and we'll just be able to watch it. Or worst case, like, if someone like us was on site, just go live, like have somebody go live with a fucking iPhone. Yeah. So we can at least see what's going on. I can at least see Tiger and Charlie chatting with each other laughing, fist pumping,

JT and Charlie laughing with each other. Great. I just want to be able to see it. I want to have a visual representation, not in photographs, but in video form of what is happening in the golf in front of my face. And the fact that you can't get that, the fact we can go live at any moment with anybody. And yeah, sure, they're contractual stuff. There's broadcasting rights.

I guarantee you the fucking partners that are involved in those would want to be on because everybody wants to watch it. So everybody wants to watch it. There's going to be more money. The cameras are already there. Put it on fucking TV. And it's also crazy that they couldn't just like the peacock and all the bullshit just like stream it.

And eventually like Sunday they streamed. They were able to stream it for like an extra hour or something on Golf Channel. Which even then that fucking got interrupted and went out. But like if there are these TV and breakfast, okay, like enough of us are streaming, there weren't even options to watch it at first. Like you literally, Danny Rapaport was the only person in the world who actually was able to witness and then tell and translate to everyone

what was happening with Charlie and Tiger Woods for the first like six holes of the first time that they ever played golf together ever, ever, ever in a tournament. It was insane. I just don't know how. when the announcement is made that Tiger Woods and Charlie Woods are going to be playing together for the first time ever, like you said, Riggs, that there is not immediately a meeting where it says, okay, this is going to be huge. This is going to light the internet on fire.

Everybody's going to want to see this. How do we make sure 100% that every shot that these guys hit is going to be streamable or on TV or somewhere that people can watch? The fact that that doesn't happen, it blows my mind. They had the Voyager with Josh Garcia on NBC while Charlie Woods stepped up to the T-box with Tiger fucking Woods in a golf tournament against Justin Thomas and his father. You had the Voyager with Josh Garcia on NBC. And then you had Brewers re-showing of the 1966 Western Open on the Golf Channel. How could that possibly be growing the game?

And you know what? We love Lady Golf. We love the LPGA. but they were showing like the LPGA, like Taekonorana open. Like this is the biggest thing for the sport that you could possibly think of that was going on that weekend. The biggest thing, everyone's sitting around waiting to watch it. It was fucking huge. Our tweets are going crazy town.

I mean, every single picture, fucking warm-ups. Dude, I'm going crazy. The PGA tour went live at one point. And all they did was just show the driving range. And it was like a shaky camera. It was the best footage I've ever seen in my entire life. They went from JT to the dad. then just like, they were like peering through JT's mom.

Like every time she'd move a second, you'd see a glimpse of Charlie Woods's swing. And then like Tiger would go to the bank. Just do that. It's fine. Show that instead of Josh Garcia. Who the fuck is Josh Garcia? And second of all, I don't care what has been planned. What, what Coca-Cola paid for, you rearrange shit.

This is why Barso is successful because this is a fucking media outlet and a media fucking company that just gets it done. We see shit and we just do it. Imagine Dave Portnoy was running the fucking ship on this golf tournament and we didn't show Charlie Woods and Tiger Woods T-Up on Whole One. He would legitimately murder someone. He'd be like, I don't care where we have to put this, but it just like, dude, they actually showed the match.

They replayed it as if it was live. So like, there are idiots out there who watched it. Meanwhile, on Twitter, JT had already won. On NBC channel, Tiger Woods was still playing golf when the tournament was over in real life. What fucking universe are we living in? How easy is it to just show it? Just show it.

And if someone doesn't come on this show, I'm going to do something drastic. Because I need, I don't know what that's going to be, but someone needs to fucking come on this show and explain to us like, oh, like you don't understand. Like we have like six months to plan stuff and like Charlie entered early. And like, you know, with coronavirus, it was supposed to be this time. Explain that to me. because I sat around all fucking week and waiting for this thing,

and I couldn't even follow tweets on it because Tiger Tracker got sent to the moon. It's just a fucking disgrace what's going on with that. Just show it on TV. It's the year 2020, man. It's fucking crazy. Me and Trent can stream video games from our rooms while I'm smacking my grundle around to millions of people on YouTube. There's access to billions of people.

There's a dude in a village in Africa. that can go live off a fucking hot spot better than NBC can while Tiger Woods is fucking playing golf. It's crazy to me. It's crazy. You're just got to figure it out. Like that's it. Do they not have meetings? Are they not embarrassed?

Do they ever tweet out like we're embarrassed? You know what? That's what I want. I want NBC and PGA Tour to be like, we are embarrassed right now. It's, yeah. And that person, if they do come on this show, they are going to give us a ton of reasons. And whatever they may be, that's fine. and unfortunately our response is going to be you just have to figure it's like my favorite movie

whiplash of j k simmons i don't know if you've ever seen it but fucking jk simmons refuses to get out of out of his face and he goes tell me you're upset how fucking upset and he makes him say i'm upset while he cries that's what i want from him that's what i want from the golf channel i want all these fucking motherfuckers to sit there and tell me how upset they are that they couldn't show that shit live it's a waste why are we getting retweets when you can be getting live views It's crazy. I didn't agree more. Spot on.

It's infuriating. It makes zero sense. I don't know if has anything to do with, it can't because it's been like this forever, but if has anything to do with the fact that Golf Channel is relocating, morning drive, shutdown, there's all kinds of layoffs, which is very sad going on at Golf Channel,

and they're obviously tied NBC. Ownership, whatever. I don't know what it's tied to. I would love to get somebody on who can explain those things and just give very valid legitimate answers because that would not, like you said, We work in media. We work for a very large, very popular, very often in the news media company.

And this company just figures it the fuck out. That's what we do. And the fact that the folks that are in charge of these networks, these massive networks that have all of these production trucks, all of these production personnel, that they have these contracts, that they have done thousands of tournaments, can't figure out how to get the fucking golf shots on television in front of our eyeballs when we want them, is crazy town. And it's been like this for a long time. This isn't the first time.

We bitch about this all the time. We bitch about the coverage gaps when they pop up and you got to watch fucking Michigan State basketball go into the third overtime instead of watching the tournament that you want to watch. It's infuriating. And it really, really was put on the forefront this weekend. But people were actually watching,

trying as hard as they could to watch golf and couldn't figure it the fuck out. Like you cannot have to try your ass off and try all kinds of different channels and try all kinds of different streaming and then pay for something when a lot of us already pay for shit anyways like you already pay for cable you already pay for pGA tour live you pay for all this shit already and you can't fucking watch tiger woods and charlie woods play golf you couldn't watch their first t shots i've still never seen their first two shots i've never seen it nothing we don't know if they got announced we don't know if they say anything or if they joke if they chuckle we missed that you made us miss that they made us and pGA tour has the balls to tweet out they knew i i

tweeted out and we were all tweaked out this is a fucking disgrace and immediately they skirt around fucking the jeff shacklefords of the world were like now we got to fuck it so they fucking tweet out this is where you can this is where you can watch on stream so i clicked on it like a fucking mule or or sheep i sat there and i fucking i was like okay let me fucking click in and it just said the coverage had ended so i screenshot it and i quote tweeted their thing and i wrote what like wait what what i was like are you like what do you mean like what and they deleted that tweet and then they put up a new stream and they said you can now watch it on this streaming account and I tweeted it and said the coverage is not yet begun and I said what what like Tiger Woods was on

the third hole at this point and I just it's like how how much harder are you going to make it for us that's the other thing is that's frustrating is when it happens and it happens a lot because people are always tweeting about it you never get an explanation from anybody like again to compare it to Barstool. If Barstool does something or something happens regarding Barstool, Dave will make a video and say, this is what's going on, this is what we're going to do about it, and this is how we're going to fix it. NBC, PJ Tour, the Galt Channel, they just like put out a measly little tweet that is faceless and nameless and says, hopefully watch this stream now. Like, that's not what people want. They want answers. They want people to be saying, we're working on this. This is what we're doing,

and they just do none of that. Why is Barstool the only company in the world that's allowed to tell its customers and consumers of their content, what's going on? I don't understand that that has nothing to do with, like, being safe or advertisers or, like, traditional media. Like, like, NBC has no right to not tell us why that fucking golf tournament's on. Like, I changed my day around it. You, they actually, like, lied. Like, they say it was going to be on TV.

It's just not. Like, they actually have an obligation to apologize and probably refund me and send me, like, a bottle of fucking vodka for what happened. Like, I want a gift basket from NBC for missing that fucking coverage. Why does it only happen with golf? Is it because they're not allocating the sales to the right things? Like, was that Josh Allen show or whatever that was? Was that the Voyager?

Is that sold more than the fucking Tiger Woods and Sun tournament? Is that what you're telling me that they had obligations to show the rest of that fucking show? Like, is that like, have you ever missed the first pitch of a baseball game? Have you ever missed the first pitch of an NFL game? Have you ever missed the opening tip of Indiana State IPUSOU versus fucking Iowa corn fairy tour? Like, have you ever missed any of these fucking basketball games? No, only God.

Why? Because it's not sold because it's not a major sport. Like, I don't get it. Tiger Woods is playing. Have you ever heard of them? Well, I think that, yeah, the restriction on the, like, when they screw up the feed that they brand you on Twitter, like that's just a mess. But it is also a mess that TV is still controlled.

by like the channel and what's able to be seen on that. Like the fact that when you have to watch like Michigan State versus Ohio State basketball and triple overtime, but you want to watch something else is just a disgrace that like you just can't create like a sublink like within the TV just to select something else. Everything is like a smart TV now. Like no, I want to watch this game. There are people that are actually like shooting it like it is live somewhere. It's being captured somewhere.

Just let me watch that. Like make that possible. It's just a mess because it does. that the content where you sit down, frankly, you'll change your day to watch like that piece of content. You can't actually watch

because even though it's being collected, you can't actually view it anywhere. It's just like... All the time. It's happening. It's being filmed. It's actually being repurposed somewhere. Like,

because they know that they're actually saving the footage and then they're going to show it as if it's live in two hours. Right. And I'm paying for it. I am. I have a fucking subscription. I have the...

So all these things happen. and then they don't follow through. I think someone needs to be fired for this tournament. They do. Someone should be jobless around the holidays because of this. Oh, just imagine. Yeah. If someone went at Barstool, dude, if All Business Pete did this, if we got the fuck, if Barstool paid for, instead of the PNC championship,

and there was the Barstool championship, and we got fucking Tiger Woods and his son to play, and we got it on NBC. We fucking struck the biggest deal in Barcelona history. And they tried to tell Dave that, The Josh Richards show, the Voyager, Josh Richard, was on NBC. He would actually, I don't know what he'd do. He'd figure out like a plug somewhere to unplug the show and put ours on.

He would just get it done. They are getting their dick stomped in with fucking size 18 shoes by Netflix, YouTube, fucking Hulu. Traditional TV has no clue what the fuck they're doing. Peacock? Like, yeah, like they're like, it's free if you have NBC. it's impossible to download peacock. It's impossible to know what's happening. For someone that's savvy with it,

you never know what tournaments on. Dude, three times it sent you to three different tournaments on that fucking NBC app. You never went to the PNC. It went to two different tournaments. It went to some Western fucking thing. It was crazy. So I'm done.

Make it easy. That's what I don't get. Make it easy and figure it the fuck out. That's what we would do. It's clearly possible because other companies just do it and other sports just do it. Everything is just figured out. Everything's on.

It's available. If you want to watch, if you pay for your fucking, like, NHL Center, I never miss a fucking puck drop ever, never, not even close. It's not even allowed. I'm allowed to watch it in fucking two different regions with two different sets of announcers. Anytime that I want, I can watch anything. It's the same with golf. If I'm paying for PJ Tour Live and I have a cable subscription or a service subscription,

YouTube TV, whatever it is, I should just be able to watch all of the golf, especially when the biggest draw in the history of the game and probably all of sports, is playing with his fucking son for the first time. And every account in all of sport in the world is tweeting about it and talking about it. The fact that we couldn't watch it, it was nuts. We had to wait for PGA tour to repurpose the actual clips and put them out on Twitter to know what actually happened. It was just insane. So figure it out.

That's the final message. Figure it the fuck out. And we want to talk to somebody. We want to interview somebody. We want to put them through the ringer. Toughest interview in golf. We want to do it right here. And we want to figure out why the first.

fuck TV coverage doesn't make sense. Maybe they have one answer. Maybe they're just like, here's the answer. And we're all just like, fuck, we're idiots. Like we never thought of that. But until that moment, we're in the right. They're in the wrong. They have a product.

They refuse to show in a timely manner. And we are angry about it. And they have to come on our podcast and explain it. Some Stooley that works in the fucking NBC. Like, there's a studio in which they press play somewhere. I know there is. There has to be. I want someone that's in that room saying,

this is why we couldn't show it that day. That specific day. Saturday at 12 o'clock, 1148, when Tiger Woods teed off at the PNC Championship, why couldn't that be on TV? Answer that question or else you're cowards, and I'm coming for every single person that's there until that they apologize to me. There you go. Hit it hard. Hit it hard.

Hit it hard. I have a steak.
