Fore Play - Trent Is A National Heartthrob, feat. Alfonso Ribeiro

Episode Date: October 12, 2021

Alfonso Ribeiro (01:14:13) joins the show for the third time. Again, he’s incredible, insightful, and full of great stories. But most importantly, our very own Trent Ryan has proven to be a national heartthrob. He stole the hearts of every female in Boston with his live show appearances last week… complete with his luggage. We discuss Trent’s “pop,” new footage of Tiger Woods, Frankie’s wounded arm, Sungjae’s victory, Wolff’s solid play, JR Smith’s college golf debut, Phil improving to 3/4 on the Senior Circuit, and much more.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 Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Foreplay, by Barcelona Sports. We are back with one of our favorites, one of the more interesting guests we ever had. One of the more surprisingly interesting guests, I would say the first time, not because he's not interesting, because he's got such an analytical, serious approach to the game of golf that we didn't expect. Alfonso Ribero, they're doing the 30s. second season of America's Funniest Home Videos.

And once again, we get into it to the point where he joined early, Frankie joined early, so then it was just him and Frankie. And then I joined, and I came in in the middle of Alfonso and Frankie going deep into chipping and then Trent, and it was just, we were just immediately deep in the sauce with our guy Alfonso Rivera. Yep, I hopped on to the old inner webs. And usually, like, in the first couple of minutes, I'm getting myself together. I have to like record locally.

I got to get the mic set up. I was actually eating a massive bag of popcorn at the time. Like one of those fucking carnival size bags of popcorn. And I just, the first face that popped up, no one else. Not anyone from our team, not our PR person. Nobody was, it was just Alfonso was sitting there in an empty room. I'm like, oh boy, I'm in one right now. So then I just like, I had to turn on my mic.

I'm like, hello, Alfonso. We were just in an interview. Luckily, he's one of the easiest guys to talk to in the world. If you, I don't, I actually have. haven't heard it yet because I jumped in late. I'm sure you were like, so I got this elbow surgery, like, what am I going to do? How am I going to recover and play golf again once I recover? And he'll talk for 25 minutes.

Yep. He gave me all the tips and the tricks on how to now practice. And he told me what not to practice because of the arm that is hurting and how it's going to actually affect my chipping worse. And yeah, he's one of the more bright minds I think I've ever spoke to. And I don't know that I ever expected that when you think. think of Carlton from Fresh Prince of Bel Air. That's the perception.

And when he was pitched to us originally as a guest, it's like, oh, we're going to have Carlton on from the Fresh Prince. And then we bring him in and we talk to him for five minutes and we're like, this guy loves golf and he's very analytical about it. And the things that he says about the game are very true and very applicable. He really is one of our favorite guests, whoever comes on here. He articulates so many different thoughts well, which we don't do on this show. So when he comes in and does that, he's also one of those.

very few people that you talk to like this, as you're talking, you can see him formulating his thoughts back, and he's eager to begin talking the whole time that you're talking because he's got so much to say about everything, but especially about the game of golf. So he was great. He's one of those that I go back and listen to every time

because I want to be able to digest everything he was saying. Right. I agree. He's full of a stick. He just post good scores, He was throwing out numbers like 65 in this interview, possible 62s if no one talked to him about a score. So yeah, the guy can play one of the best guests ever. And I really think the listeners like hearing his perspective on the game too,

because he is just a regular guy. He's not on tour. He's not a professional golfer. He's a regular guy that cares about it so much that he's gotten to the point where he can shoot 65. And I think there are a lot of listeners that try to apply themselves. I mean, Riggs, you try and get to. that point in golf. You go out there every single day.

So it is fun to hear a regular guy that has accomplished, being able to go beyond scratch and play and hit those kind of numbers and his approach to the game. It's pretty unique. So Alfonso is coming up. He's great. We got a bunch of stuff to get to. We got Tiger Woods siding.

We've got Sung J.M., which is a lurch pick, who he said was going to be the best player for the next five years. We got a Matthew Wolf resurgence. Phil Mickelson is now three for four on the champions. tour none of that pales in comparison to our guy Trent so we're going to get to Trent before we do that something related Owens mixers which they are very

very much strong awesome supporters of us and also of what goes on chicks in the office bachelor recaps this stuff's fantastic you pour it in with your favorite liquor okay and you just make awesome cocktails you can get it on go puff you can get same day delivery

Amazon you can get next day delivery and then Owensmixers.com figuring out exactly where it is near you. They got a store locator. Go pick it up and enjoy it. They got a bunch of her flavors. Their margarita mix, one of their new ones. Everybody loves a nice marg.

And then obviously the transfusion mix, which is our favorite golf cocktail. These puppies, we taste tested. We got it just right. We got the ingredients just right. It saves you a bunch of steps. You pour it in with a little vodka. And you've got a delicious transfusion cocktail.

So we love Owens. Now, I have to say, on this very show, we went on for probably way too long about our very own Trent Ryan. We, in our own minds, thought we got ourselves too worked up to the point where the only thing Frankie was talking about was how wet the floors were going to be and how big of a problem Trent was going to be in this place. And we went on and on again, we built on it and we stacked on top of it. We had such a good time of it. And we

dramatically undersold Trent's presence and the pop that Trent was going to get in Boston, Massachusetts this past Thursday and Friday to the point that we just we just have a mega superstar heartthrob on this golf podcast right now and it's Trent Ryan and I'm just it's an honor to talk to you today there was before you go there I want to alert the listeners that there was a category five title wave in Boston I mean I don't know if that's how you categorize title waves but an absolute monsoon inside what was a name of the bar? Ned Devines. Ned Devines will have water damage for years to come. I hope they bought insurance because when Trent Ryan walked out of that fucking behind the stage, it was crazy.

Lurch was there in the flesh. From the video viewpoint, I don't know that I've ever heard a pop like that in my entire life. We're talking WWE. We're talking John Sina walking out after years of not being in the scene and like the crowd goes crazy. No, Trent Ryan, bigger pop. Bigger pop. Bigger pop. You guys are being very nice And it was a fantastic experience Shout out to everybody who came Shout out to Rian Fran for inviting me That was very nice

It's funny The conversation that we had on this show The day of where we were talking about What was going to happen How it was going to go At the end of that conversation I had convinced myself That it was going to be crickets

And I know that sounds crazy And I know like It's just my brain fucking with me But like I was legitimately very nervous Just because I had never done a live show before They had never done one So you don't know what it's actually going to be like when we do this job we talk into cameras we talk in the mics we talk you know

that's pretty much yeah we're not actually getting audience feedback or anything like that we know that there's listeners out there we have twitter followers we have instagram followers but it's different when it's right in front of you and there's an audience there and there's a crowd so i was very nervous that i was going to go out there and they were just going to be like yeah yeah we like that guy's bachelor tweets i thought i thought that might be the response the response that i got was overwhelming is the word that I would use. I couldn't believe it. Yeah, Lurch was so funny.

So the show started at 7.30 and I don't remember if we talked about it on the show or not that Lurch was going to try to show up. I can't remember if we talked about it or not. But you were like, I'm in Boston. I'm going to try to get there and see at least your entrance and see what the scene is like. So at like 815, you showed up and I was waiting basically backstage, but I came in from a different angle or whatever. And Lurch was there. And I guess he'll be able to tell you better than I because I was nervous and I was. It was just like, I'm about to go out there.

I don't know what's going to happen right now. Yeah, I mean, you were nervous. You were definitely nervous. I didn't know what kind of scene I was walking into. I've been to Ned Devines plenty of times in my life. Good little hangout spot, especially in your young 20s. So I was like, what am I getting into? And I walk upstairs and there's the bar is still operating in like the first room.

There's people having drinks, whatever, some food, just hanging out. Then there's like a middle room and that's where I walk into and Trent's just sitting there. on the couch just like giddly nervous uh events leases there live events leases there and they're just kind of chatting and uh and i could tell trent was like i don't know what i'm about to get into like this is going to be crazy um or just like to trend's point just like yeah that guy does tweets like whatever so for about five minutes i'm watching ria and fran go about their bit and it's about batcher i don't really know what you're talking about but the scene is electric like they started out they They did a great job.

They handed out shots right away to get everybody kind of buzzing. And then it drops. And like Trent's coming out. And the whispers start to echo through the room of like, I think it's Trent. And to this point, I'm like, are you kidding? This is unbelievable. There's my five bucks. And then the crowd goes nuts.

Like the mixtape that shows up to like the pump up tape that plays is just off the charts. excitement is through the road. And then when he comes around with his little piece of luggage, comes around the corner, the place, I mean, you couldn't hear, I mean,

it was, it was outrageous. I mean, people were going nuts for five minutes until it was like a quiet down situation. People were going off, and yeah, Trent would just kind of like giddily went up there.

And I could tell you were nervous out of the gate, but then you get a couple words out. It starts flowing. It becomes natural again. But yeah, Frankie's right, man. There was a monsoon moving three.

up all right. I was nervous when I first got up there because you don't know what the response is going to be just like talking into a mic. I knew. No, I know. And again, I generally had an idea. But then your brain starts to eat itself. Nobody had that kind of an idea though, man. This place

went bonkers for Tea Daddy coming in. I mean, they're through brazzly, right? Well, that's the most impressive part is that night one, place went crazy, Lurch was there for that, you know, building almost collapsed. Night two, you'd think there'd be less of a pop because there's no surprise, right? They're definitely going to bring out Trent. And he almost gets more of a pop and then two bras thrown at him.

He's getting 36 double Ds tossed at him, and he's wearing them as a fucking chain. Like the most swagger I've ever seen, the most swagger stage presence I've ever seen a guy sitting there talking about the bachelor with a bra draped over his shoulder. And the slow removal of the glasses on night one was. Oh, my God. Oh, yeah.

We had talked about that. Dude, that was very daytime. Who did I say? was Henry Cavill Connick Harry Connick Jr. It's just

anything Trent did the place went woo like he could have done a little twirl they would have went nuts he could have spanked

his ass or something anything he would have done they would have went fucking bonkers for it's you had them hookline and sinker they were eating out of your

palm and it is what I had told or what we had talked about Ria Fran and I before because they were nervous I was nervous and then what I was saying

was that like these are chicks in the office fans like it's not an open mic night where they're like, who's going to come up on this stage? Like, so any, like, they were just happy to be there. They had a great time.

The crowds were so awesome. And basically anything that Ria and France said, like, they were, they just ate it up because they love the podcast so much. So once you realize that they're on your team and they're not there for anything else but you guys, that makes you a little bit more comfortable. But, I mean, the whole thing is honestly just insane. I had a really, really good time in Boston. So Gary Williams, who used to host, um, Golf Central,

now he does his own show asked me to come on this morning. And one of the questions he asked me, he said, you know, who are you guys direct competitors? And we kind of got in this conversation. And essentially we kind of agreed on nobody because we are so different. And then I said to the point where one of our guys, Trent, does a series where he's trying to break a hundred. And this past end of last week in Boston, he walked onto a stage where they talk about the bachelor and current events and entertainment and pop.

and had bras thrown at him on stage. And then we have a guy that films pizza reviews and plays the drums in like a fake pop band. I did like an interview with the vice president's like chief of staff during the pandemic last year. Lurches in Turkey half the time like slinging drones and stuff. And I was like, and we do a alternative golf media brand that like we just, who nobody's like that.

And whether that's bad or good or we don't know who Bud Kali is or whatever. like this is what is just psychotic about everything and the fact that we again tried to play it up we tried to get hyped we tried to make you uncomfortable with your expectations being so high and then that pop was infinitely more impressive and real and it was like a Beatles screech like people weren't even just like clapping they were like squealing at you Trent because you people were reaching out to try to get like a piece of them they were literally like reaching out him to try to touch it. It was iconic.

I typed in, I typed in top, you just used the word squeal. When I saw the pop, I tried to do a tweet of like, all right, number one, Trent Ryan walks into the Bachelor Live show. Then number two, the Beatles get off the plane on their way to Shea Stadium. I actually typed in top squeals of all time. Don't Google that one because you're just not going to get a list. You're not going to, no one has formulated a list of top squeals. You're just going to find weird stuff on the internet, stuff that I usually get myself

into late at night. But we have to come up with some sort of list because he's in that realm, right? Like there is a realm where Trent now lives of top pops. And it's real. And it's not, it's not fabricated. It's not, we're not being overdramatic. It's a real thing that happened. It's so strange.

It was as real as real as gets. I mean, yeah, I like could not believe. I mean, Dee Daddy, would you have been more nervous knowing the pop that you got? Like, if you knew that pop was coming, would you have been more. nervous to like let down expectations or that like how would you feel if you knew prior when I saw you because we were talking about nothing I don't know we're like smile laughing I barely remember seeing you I was so nervous I barely remember talking to um if I had known that I was going to get that pop I would have been less nervous because like I said I really had convinced myself and

I hate my brain for it that they just weren't going to care that they like there was going to be indifference is the word that I kept thinking about like they were just going to oh luggage guy trends here there's this hype video that producer Noah made that's very funny and they're just going to be like all right cool yeah that's we're at the chicks in the office show that's what I was thinking so if I had known and I guess the second night I did know but like Frankie's saying I thought they might be a little less excited because it was clear that I was in Boston but I would have been less nervous if I had known lurch told us like the place was gripped with this rumor that you were going to appear for like five or ten minutes before you

came out it just hijacked the entire event that Trent Ryan with his luggage is somewhere in the building. 99% women, the whole building. It was nuts. Oh, and people were going nuts. And my favorite thing, because Rian and Fran were like, yeah,

we've got like a special guest. And as soon as they said that, there was probably a 30 second gap before, or maybe a minute before Trent, like appeared. Like, there were a little bit of filler lines. And like,

people sort of whispered. Like, I think Trent's here. So good. It's awesome. It's all very cool. I'm very, I'm very grateful for the whole thing.

Again, Re and Fran, they put on a great show. They've got the rest of their tour now. They're heading to Philly. They're heading to Nashville. They're heading to Chicago. The tickets get snatched up so quickly that I don't know if you can even get them anymore.

But if you have a chance to go see them, definitely go see them. It's the whole thing. They did a great job. They did a really good job. Like, I'm not even a Bachelor fan, but like they was engaging with the audience. They passed out live shots to start. Like it was just, it looked like a very fun scene, honestly. Yeah.

Yeah, it's going to be a hell of a tour. They're doing a great job, those girls. I think they added, Taddy, did they added like 30 seats night too, didn't they? They did, yeah, they ended up putting more seats into the, into Ned Devines and they had, they sold like, yeah, 30 or 40 more tickets. Yeah. That's awesome. That's so good.

Well, well done, T. You were excellent on stage. It was just, it was an atmosphere like none other, honestly. I truly could not believe it, but you did a great job and well deserved. Thank you. Mm-hmm. Congratulations, Trent. Very well.

And for Frankie and Riggs, if there's ever a rumor that this might happen again, it's honestly must, you must be in person. The video is good, but it is must, must see. Like, you have to be there. It's truly not to be the league. Another thing I want to say, not about the show, but just about Boston in general. I fucking love Boston. Yeah, Boston. I had, right.

I really hadn't spent much time there. Six years ago, I went and I did like a commercial for a Barstle Sports beach towel. That's like a hundred years ago now. I hadn't really walked around or spent a lot of time. We were in the north end, I believe that it is. And it's like the Italian district. And we went and had a nice dinner at this place called Monicas. And then we went and got canoles from this place, Mike's.

And just, I guess growing up for me being from Iowa, I thought big cities are big cities. New York and Boston are one and the same. They are complete opposites. Like New York, when I got back on Friday and I got off the subway or I got off the Amtrak and I was by it, Madison Square Garden, I felt like I was entering a war zone. It's just, it's chaos. The difference between Boston and New York is so, so different. And I just really, I really enjoyed myself in Boston.

We walked around. I ate a bunch of food. I want to go back to Boston as soon as I can. It's a great place. I actually live. I used to live, like, across the street for Monica. So I would go there frequently. And then at Mike's, they have this pistachio canoli.

I think I texted you. I was like, it's off the charts. It's a canola. Those you think he's had in your life, Lurch. On a bad Sunday, and this probably created some of the dairy issue. For a bad sundaeed dairy, you've had all the dairy. Dude, I would go, and the canolis there are big. They're like the size of like a mini football.

How was the shell? How was the shell? How was the shell? The shell was good. I would get two pistachio canolies on like a bad Sunday and just, yeah. It just feels more, Boston feels more digestible. New York City is just something that I can't even comprehend.

Boston, I felt comfortable. Boston, too. You can walk from like one side of Boston to the other in a reasonable amount of time. An hour or two, you could walk from one city, one side to the entire other. It is, it's got just a almost like a big town feel to it more than a city. Correct. It feels like a big town. And the weather right now up there is like no humidity, perfect.

It's just so nice. You can't be. We were right on the water. Yeah, it's a great spot in the North Carolina. I got coffee on Friday or Thursday morning and I just sat next to the water and drank coffee. It was a delight. I really had just the best time in Boston, clearly. Frankie's not into the positive Boston talk.

That's all right. I mean, it's a nice city. There's no denying it. I don't like their sport teams. But yeah, very nice city. I've enjoyed my time in Boston before. The best way to think about therapy is through many analogies. We get our cars tuned up to prevent bigger issues down the road.

We get annual checkups and go to the gym to maintain physical wellness and prevent injury and disease. We do chores regularly to avoid a giant mess of a house situation, roaches, things like that. Therapy is like all of the above. It's routine maintenance for your mental and emotional wellness to prevent bigger issues down the road. Therapy does not mean something's wrong with you at all. It means you're investing in yourself to keep your mind healthy. Barstool Sports agrees. We're offering better help services to our employees at Barstool.

That's right. Yep. It was always better to speak about things than bottle it all up and just think it out and talk about it. And your mental health is very important. It's just as important as your physical health. I mean, I'm dealing with physical health right now, which is probably leading to mental health issues. How is your physical health right now? It's okay. Yeah, it's good. I mean, I'm an idiot. So I'm not, I don't, I think I'm doing the wrong things with it. Like, I don't know. I've gotten a lot of DMs about how serious I had to take it. And I haven't taken it. it seriously at all. I was at a wedding this weekend and I know. Dancing. Swing dancing? Just dancing. Like, that's not in a sling. It's like, I'm just kind of like loosey-goosey because it feels good now and everyone's like, well, like, you're not doing any

rehab. Like my doctor told me no rehab really is needed. And like everyone, I got this tennis player that sent me his rehab schedule when he had the same surgery. It was a 12 week rehab schedule. And then like, I read through it. And on week 12, he started to pick up a racket. I'm like, dude, I'm going to fucking band practice tonight, tonight, literally. tonight. We're playing for four hours at this fucking studio to get ready for a concert next week. I just don't know how I'm going to do that. So I'm a little nervous about like permanent nerve damage.

Can you pick up a drums? Like what can you, what can do with that little wing of yours right now? I can do it. I can twist the whistle now too, which is good. Twist the whistle. Yeah. Never heard that before.

That is good. It is good. So, I mean, I'm at that point, but like, I don't know, I'm just afraid of further damaging my arm. I'm not doing any,

I'm not doing anything to make sure that it's, it's healthy. Like if you saw right now, it's a mess. Well, I was going to say, I'm not a doctor or a surgeon, but that picture you put out was like, oh, real bad. It was intense. It was intense. That's an intense picture. Dude, when I went that day and he took off the fucking, he took the wrapping off of the first time. I looked at it and I said, so do you just send me to the hospital now? Because I thought for sure I had blood clots or something. And he laughed so hard. He's like, no, you're fine. He's like, that's just from stretching the skin back, I think, like when they do the surgery.

So he, that looked at normal to him. That wasn't, like, ooh, this is healing. Everyone bruises, everyone bruises differently, I guess. But, um, no, it was, so that's like the default saying. Like, oh, everybody bruises differently. But like that looked bad. Yeah, it was bad. Um, now I've got like the sterry strips falling off.

So like, I just took it off now and showed Erica. She's like, oh, how's your arm? And it just looks like a war zone because like the strips are falling off. They're dirty with blood. And I'm like, I'm not taking care of this. Are you still taking any pain medication? No, I stopped that. I was that.

That's, I'm glad that I just took that for a couple days and that's over. That's good. Yeah. That stuff gets nasty. And you can get into a whole conversation about that. Like, it's nuts what the fucking medical field does. I mean, you got to prescribe people with better medication here. I mean, they said to me, I only need it for a couple days.

They gave me 40 pills of oxycodone. It's nuts. That's not right. You don't need that. Nobody needs that. No. So. I remember when I got my wisdom teeth out, my dad, like, wouldn't let me have any of that.

Right. Like, not one. I mean, it's best to not use them. Right, totally agree with the decision. I was like, I could use some pain meds, but like, you don't need those meds. No, scary. That stuff's slippery. That's good that you feel good, though.

I do. It's just, I still, I mean, I don't know how I'm going to get through tonight. We'll see. I've got this thing that I put on, it's like a sleeve, and it's just ice cold. And it makes me feel real good. Like, I feel like fucking Superman when I put that thing on. When's your next checkup? In three weeks.

I'll have already played the concert before. before the checkup. Does the doctor know about the concert? I lied to him about it. I said that the concert was after our checkup. He goes, oh yeah, you should be fine by then.

Little does he know it's eight days before the next checkup. I mean, also, it's like concert or no concert. You're doing a four hour practice tonight. That might as well be a concert. And tomorrow. That's an insane amount.

You can't go full. No, I can't. We'll see what happens. I mean, it's, whatever. I'm just going to be a warrior.

We can't have you losing an arm on this podcast. That's the thing I'm worried about. If you lose the nerve, you basically lose the arm, right? I mean, the nerve was slightly pinched and I lost all feeling in my pinky. What happens if I lose the whole thing? God. You're just not, you're not listening to anybody. Kill me if I lose the law.

No, that's what I'm concerned. I heard you say I just want to be a warrior. Like, that's not, I think that's the wrong mentality. I know. And no way would anyone describe Frankie as a warrior. No. But you are like, not, you're not a warrior. You're not.

But you are like not listening to anyone. Correct. Yeah, mentally strong. That just makes you an idiot. I think that doesn't make you. I got to do it, man. Are you feeling the legit concern from us right now? Yes.

Okay. And you're making me nervous. Okay. All right. You need people like us to tell you to not be a fucking idiot. I'm just picturing Frankie's arms are like, you know, they're frail already, man. He just starts strumming away. One just hits the wall.

It just comes out. Dude, if you guys are, I don't think we've announced where the show is yet, but if you're in the city and you're going to come to the show, just keep an eye on my right arm when I'm at that show and just see what happens. If you see me start to use the left arm to hit the fucking high hat and go around for a fill,

I'm going to get the drum soul and it's just going to be me smack on my head against the tom-toms just to try and make any noise I possibly can. I still think it's a viable option to have someone stand behind you. And even if they just do the right arm, if they just hit it, You have a real drummer, stand behind you and do that. I think that's much safer. I think we'll try and figure out some sort of background drummers who's waiting in the bowels for my arm to just fall off.

So, yeah, that's my update with my arm. Nothing's, nothing, you know, not much progress. Scary. It is scary. It's good. It's good to talk about, you know, mental health is important. So if you lose it. Mental, physical.

Keep it positive. I went to, you guys ever, I don't know if they have this stuff in like Iowa, unless they just have corn mazes. But don't use that time. I went to... I hope it's just like medicine. No, I went to this... Water. No, it's like...

Where do you have it? Medicine in Iowa? It's like a family resort where like, it's almost... What's the movie that... Heavy weights, but it's like it's not a fat camp, but it's for families to go where they'll have like the blob in the middle of the lake and then they'll have... So this place is called Woodlock Pines. It's in Pennsylvania.

I went there this weekend. I used to go there growing up and then we had a wedding there where we rent a it out a bunch of houses. And it was like the time of my life, man, getting outside and breathing in the fresh air, being with family. I haven't been with them forever. We had like 180 people all at like a family resort. Go-carts, uh, rock climbing, batting cages. I couldn't do any of this stuff because my arm hurt. But you guys have stuff like that in Iowa where like it's a destination. It's got hotels in Iowa trip or no. I don't think we have what you are specifically referencing. We might have it and I've just never been to one, but you're essentially saying it's an adult summer

camp. Yeah, that's basically what it feels like. man and it's a lot of yeah just a resort sounds like a but it's very summer campy like you like you like all like the feeling like like the person that you check in almost feels like your camp counselor and it's for like adults essentially right like they've got they've got a fucking concert hall they have bars in every single place like it's a fun spot i want you to know that that sounds great it sounds unbelievable because it is i would go to the horseback riding horseback riding horseback riding uh skeet shooting the whole thing you can it's a it's a it's yeah you wouldn't be able to do it because your eyes no he cannot he's got a

That was what the reason. But yeah, I just wanted to give a shout out to that place. I used to go there when I was younger and I thought of, I heard stories about it. I almost felt fake. Like, oh, yeah, like you go on the little beach by the pond, by the lake and like you play Fear Factor. Like they would come out and like you do family versus family fear factor games. And then like, and then I experienced it this weekend.

It was fucking awesome. So I just wanted to give a shout out. Woodlock Pines. I used to go to a camp every summer in and I enjoyed the hell out of it. And I would love to relive those memories. So maybe I never went to camp, right? I always went to baseball camp. Shout out to Wopsy.

I went to baseball camp. Shout out of Central Meadow baseball camp. I used to go there every summer. I never got to go to the cool camps that my friends went to. And baseball camp did nothing for me but give me elbow surgery. Yeah, the camp that I went to, we would play or we would go in canoes. We would roast marshmallows. We would, we would, they had one of those.

what am I doing right now? Ziplines? Zipline. Zipline. We'd do a zip line. They had that. So much. That was like my camp. Yeah, I did the same thing as Trent. It was like canoeing, backpacking, camping. Do it for a week in the summer. Yeah.

So this was my first experience of that and I fucking loved it. I always tend to believe that I am an inside person. I like to be inside, whether it's watching sports inside, playing video games inside, watching TV. I don't like outside shit. You know what I mean? Sounds like you do. And I think I do. I thought I didn't like outside shit.

I fucking loved it, man. How far is it from where we're sitting right now? Two and a half hours. That's nothing. I want to go. Dude, we should go to Woodluck Ponds. They have a golf course there. Beautiful golf course.

I've heard it's really good. Obviously, you didn't play. I mean, did you play? No, we stayed on the golf course. It fucking killed me to look out. Huge elevation on the T-boxes, looking down at these rolling hills, the foliage. I said, how am I not golfing right now?

I've heard that course is awesome. Yeah, but if you played golf with that arm, I'd be like, well, obviously, he just doesn't care about getting healthy. Shout out to you for not doing the batting cages. Didn't do the baging cage. I did do the go-carts. I ran my aunt off the fucking, off the, uh, off the road there. Put her right into the fucking all those tires that they have stuck on. I just put it right in the tires.

To eat shit, Aunt Laura, eat shit. Eat my fucking gas. Dude, I've been watching a lot of Formula One. So when I was in the go-cart, I felt like I was doing it, man. I did it not too long, I felt the same way. You pass somebody or you go like way wide, then you scoop it on the inside. Bro, box box. It was like box box box, box, push, push, push.

I felt like I was going around the turns. Like I was gaining speed around the turns. And then I felt and then you know what you know, you know what you do that most people that don't understand this, right? You have to watch when we want to know this is that you actually break on the straightaways and you hit the gas on the turns. Right? Because if you fucking, if you're coming in way too hot on the turns, you're going to spin out, which I never. knew. I never knew. If you try and break on a turn two, your stars are going to spin out also. So I was doing all this stuff. I won every single race. Aunt Lauren never had a chance.

We got our own Lewis Hamilton here. Dude, go-carts are fun. We should do go-carts also. I want to do all these things. I'll just go. I'll just go to where you went to. I want to do all this stuff. Right. I'll meet you there. Let's go right now. Perfect. Fun time. Next travel series. We'll have a go-car race. Woodlock Pines. Oh, man. Amen.
