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. Oh, Rick! What's up, my brother? I've got a buddy who struggles with that shot. A lot. His name's Frankie Burrilli. So the guys actually gave him a nickname of Butterknives because he always knives sitting across the green.

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

And he grabs 100. He's like, yeah, I won 90,000 at these yesterday. He goes, take 100 and go fuck yourself. What? What are you that different? It's a hobby. Foreplay, presented by Barcelona Sports. We got the entire squad.

It is January 10th, 2020. We got a lot to get to. Kala Morcawa with the collapse. John Rom, with the win. We got a lot of big football over this last weekend. a lot of just sports. We're sort of getting ready to hit it ourselves. I think in about a week,

we're doing our first trip of the year. And then right after that, it's going to be Waste Management Super Bowl week here in Arizona. And then we're just fucking right back into it. But we got the whole squad. We got Frankie Trent, Dan, myself. Callow Moracalla, I will say, we have to start with that.

Obviously, Hawaii, getting excited for the year. There are no ACEs, which I thought was shocking. Max Homer came close, which I appreciate it. I still exchanged with him and JT. Probably because there's only three par threes. That's probably why. I just never thought about that.

Looking back, there's a few reasons why I probably didn't. You know, it was a small field. I'm smiling. Just grinning over here. What's the field size usually? Is it bigger than 39 people? No, they've actually made it bigger because they now let in the guys who made the tour championship who didn't win.

It's usually like 33, 34. I see. On a regular tournament, though, is it like 30? It's like the 150 range. 40 people? Oh, wow. Okay. That's a lot more.

So yeah, I bet. I mean, that's. probably a red flag that that wasn't going to hit. And it didn't. So that's a bummer. But, man, Morikawa, two times now back to back. Six-shot lead ends up just boogie, bogey coming down the stretch, chunks, bad shots. John Rob shoots a million under wins the tournament.

Morikawa's our guy. We've done a lot of stuff with Carl Morikawa. Frankie interviewed him one-on-one. Then he kind of stole your whole idea about coming in like an NBA player to the game. We've done a bunch of videos with him. We've got some videos coming out with him this spring. that are going to even elevate that more last year. He did the whole deal where he was hitting golf balls at Frankie and Trent in the driving range of cart.

So he's one of our fucking guys. He's got two major championships seeing him collapse like that. I don't care who you are, whatever. If it's the Hawaii event or if it's the U.S. Open, just it's not fun watching somebody collapse. It just was so sudden, too. Like that's the thing is the difference between this one and the hero was the hero, he made a mess in the beginning. I think his first tee shot was like a quick pull. and he made a double bogey on the fourth hole, I think, and it was like over quick.

What was so shocking about this one was just the, it just flipped. He played the first seven holes in three under. I think he, like, lived out on eight and nine. He's looking confident as hell. And then he gets to 14. The guy hasn't made a single bogey the whole week. He hasn't made a single bogey the whole week. Then he bogeys three straight holes and he was the only guy the entire week to make three straight bogeys.

So it's just a, it's just another example. I don't, you know, we've, we've been reminded of this count. his times of how hard it is to win a golf tournament, especially when you're working on new stuff. He's working on a new pitching motion. He's working on new putting. And when you're under pressure, that's when the new things in your game really get tested. It held up for 65 holes. It did not hold up for 70. Crazy thing about sports is you just forget how good he played because of how he finished. I say it's all the time in hockey. Like when you're in, when a guy's like has a couple shots around the net and he's like really like getting himself in good position and misses wide open nets,

all the fans are like, this guy's having a horrible game today. And I always think, like, how good of a game is he having that he's the only guy on the ice with all these chances? Yeah, they're not going in the net, but like the guy's got five shots on goal. He's missing all these opportunities, but he's also getting himself in those positions. The guy's fucking having the game of his life tonight. He's just not scoring. But I think about that when it comes to golf as well.

Like, Kalamorkawa had an all-time week of golf. I mean, the guy was lights out. The guy played fucking phenomenally. And he put himself in a situation to collapse, which, We never think of it that way. We never think of like how good did he play that actually the fact that he didn't win is insane. That's how good he played. But the fact that he didn't win is like unconceivable.

What was his lead going into Sunday? Insconceivable. Six and he led by seven at one point on Sunday. Yeah. No, you make a good point, Frankie, that the reason the collapse was so devastating is because he played so well. For sure. But it's almost, I think we've had this conversation on the podcast before where I would almost rather lead. by two shots going into Sunday than seven.

But isn't it a law of averages thing at some point where like sometimes some of the putts that were going in that got him to seven stroke lead like probably wouldn't have gone in and now like it kind of all just comes back to earth a little bit like obviously the tiger woods of the world were able to just keep the foot on the gas and they were able to win by 11 and 12 and just keep going. But a human sometimes will just be like, you know, some of these like on Saturday shouldn't have went in and they're not falling today and like a little bit of them. today speed 2015 with like brandle talks about a lot where it's like he was making a

percentage of putts from the whatever 20 something foot range that was like inconceivable for the whole fucking year he's doing it like every day for the whole year and you're right and put some point it's like the law of averages come back i'm i'm just always amazed in sports how much the law of averages comes back and how much momentum always not always but such an astronomical amount of the time just makes it really close at the end, like it's a video game that the algorithm just wants you to tie. And we talked about that in the World Cup a lot when a team would have a two-goal lead,

and they're dominating for 80 minutes, a la Argentina in the final. And then, like, one little break goes the other way of PK, and all of a sudden it's like they barely hung on to even get to overtime. And you see that in football all the time where you're like, this offense is struggling. They can't get down the field. But then they have a two-minute drill,

and they score a touchdown with too much time left on the clock. And you're just like, how could they not move the ball all day? And then when they're back and they're trailing and the game's on the line, like the defense just does not exist. And it's like that in so many sports and hockey, we talk about that time. If there's a one goal game in the last 10 minutes of period, like that team is going to be pressing and it's going to be amazing if you can get out of there

without giving up a goal, even though you haven't given up a fucking goal in 35 minutes of playing and not even been that close. So sports just for whatever reason at the end, it's like you could almost sense that it was just going to be close, even though it wasn't the whole tournament. And the worst, the best and worst part about golf is that you have to finish it, start it and finish it yourself. It's not like baseball where you can be a pitcher, go out there, throw eight innings of shutout ball and then your job's done and you wait for someone else to finish it off. This would be the equivalent of like a guy throwing a no hitter for eight innings. And then the coach sends him out there in the ninth and he gives up a walk off home run. And it's like all you think about is losing the game and the walk off home run, but you didn't think about the first eight innings where.

the guy didn't give up a hitter or walk. This is Kalamorikawa. Colomorcah threw a no hitter for seven and a half innings. And then all of a sudden. It's our match against Max Homa. It's our match against home. It's like walking guys like crazy. Everybody talks about how we lost and we blew that.

We played unbelievable. Trent had like back to back birdies. Like we had. Yeah. We played the best golf we've ever played. And then like we could just sense the whole time in the back nine like, oh, we're just not going to win this. I don't know.

It's not a collapse either. Like I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want people to think I'm not, I'm trying to like stand up for our tailor-made guy, Kalamarkawa. Like at this point, it is a collapse, but you have to be able to see the other side of collapses sometimes where it's like the only reason he was able to collapse because he put himself in that position. It's not like someone started Kalamarka with a seven-stroke lead on Sunday because he won some

fucking luck of the draw lottery ticket. You know what I mean? He fucking got it. I spoke to his coach last night. And what he was saying was the way that they are processing it is if that was his first nine holes instead of his last nine holes, the takeaway for the week would be just how well he putted it and how good the chipping felt all week. But obviously, that's not going to be the way that anyone else processes it.

But once you're the person who does that, you have to think of it that way. You have to think of, okay, for seven-eighths or even a little bit more of that, I not only was leading the tournament, but I was fucking dominating the best players in the world. The guy had a seven-shot lead. The other thing about golf collapses that makes them so possible and so tough to watch is how much time there is in between shots, right? If you're playing hockey or you're playing basketball and you're collapsing, you can go out there

and foul somebody. You can go to the hole. You can kind of chase it. Once you start chasing it in golf, the whole thing begins to spiral. So it's like once you feel yourself losing control and it's such a small, fine motion that the smallest little hitch, I mean, you get in that pitch shot. I watched him hit the pitch shot. He hit on 15. He practiced it like six or seven times in the practice round because that's a ball where it feeds

there a lot. There's a big slope. and, you know, there's all this trouble left. So you're naturally going to bail out right. You're going to come up short if you're hitting it right. And it's going to roll down that hill. And he hit that chip shot over and over and over again at the practice store. And I watched it.

And he had no problem with it. He's hitting high ones. He's hitting low ones. He was doing whatever he want with it. He had one time where he needed to make solid contact and he full on chili-pipped it. Yep. And, you know, it's tough in golf, too. A bit to Frankie's point of like the takeaway, if you look at everything in context,

I just look, there's like Jimmy Connors, or Corey Connors, them are like middle of the pack at 16 under whatever. By all accounts, like Moracala last night, should have been having a way better night than those guys. His game is so tight. He just finished second. He's got a bunch of money. He's got to feel great going into this full new calendar season.

But he felt shittier to the point where he used the word sadness. He went on and say, I don't know, it sucks. Whereas, you know, Hogi, one of these guys who's like, had a pretty strong finish is like, what a great day. What a great Sunday. What a great week. But like more than a while had a better week. Like that guy had a better week.

And so all the context on that is huge. The collapse part is is always tough in golf because it's so magnified because it's so obvious. And in other sports, it collapses mostly a team effort that's very rarely going to be super obvious. Maybe the goalie lets one in from like the red line or something. But like how often does that happen? Or, you know, it's like a team starts to just.

give up more yards and they were giving up. And it's like you can't pinpoint necessarily a collapse unless it's baseball. And all of a sudden there's like four errors in the last inning. Like you don't really get to see a collapse. Whereas out there the guy makes three bogies in a row that only got to do that all week. And you're like, oh, collapse, collapse. That's a collapse. And it's just like you can't escape it.

You know you're collapsing. And like when Speed said that in the, what was that, the 16? He literally said like, we're choking, Michael. We're choking. I feel like we're choking here. It's like, oh, shit. You're running down the hill. it's tough it's fucking tough but you know the flip side of that is is john rom and i think if

there are certain names in modern golf that you just don't want breathing down your neck and and rome literally and figuratively literally and figuratively that is a big man with a with a beer and a sweaty guy and he's making a lot of birdies but it's like j t and rom for me are those guys who like they can catch a heater you know what i mean and rome hit he bogeed the first hole he played his last 17 holes and 11 under par. And he won by two, right? It wasn't like he even clipped him by one. So Colin would have needed to shot three under to get into a playoff.

So it's not like, I mean, it's not like the most. He still shot under par for the day, but just the way that it played out and that quick flip was really, it just made it really, really difficult to swallow. Yeah, it's funny because the Rory comparison when he obviously didn't hold on to win the open and St. Andrews was like, we were kind of debating the collapse, like the accuracy of the collapse.

logo on that because he didn't make a bokee, right? He just, like, he just had all these chances. And it wasn't like there was a chili dip that you could point to of like collapse. You know, you just couldn't do that. He just played pretty solid, but not like, not like over the hump to get those extra birdies. Where's this one and the speed one and the van. Like those are just things you could point to. Yeah, that's a chip shot.

He hasn't hit all week. You hit that horrible chip shot, chili dip collapse. And that's, that weighs on their mind. Like, they know when they're collapsed. And so, so yeah, it's part of the, it's, it's the painstaking part of golf. But like, as a viewer, that's a part that makes it amazing is you're just, you can feel it in your fucking living room what he's feeling in Hawaii, basically. Right.

Like, how are any of us supposed to be good at golf when, like, we all get nervous about different things on the golf course? Colin War Cowell is trying to win a tournament. He's trying to win $2.7 million. And we're trying to, you know, hit a certain number when we're out there. the prizes are different, but the pressure is the same. So when you watch a guy like Colin Morikawa, maybe not the exact same.

I'm not going to put it. They're not apples to apples. But they're similar in that when you're trying to accomplish something, the pressure goes up and you're way more nervous. And even a guy that Calamorikawa is going to shit it down his leg sometimes. Like you watch that as a golfer and you're like, it's fine. I can't believe we all play this.

And expect to be even sort of good at this sport. 2003 fresh year people got the whole thing in front of them still are presenting sponsor for this year our very good friends at Chevrolet God this show if you're listening now it's obviously early in the show throughout this show we get into a lot of stuff about you know changes that you're told to make what you're supposed to eat how you're supposed to do this or that to try to survive well our earth and everybody surviving is clearly going to be better going forward with EVs. And Chevy, they've been ahead of the game.

They got EVs for everyone everywhere now. A bunch of their favorite lines you've heard of, Bolt, Silverado, the Blazer, which we rave about here. They've got them available to pre-order or the Bolt. You can order now in the EV model, electric vehicle, and the EUV, electric utility vehicle. So go check out Chevrolet's website, one of our favorite pastimes. You go build out.

You can play with the different colors in the interior and see that their EV well-stilitary. still looking is badass and awesome. Chevrolet's always been. So we're pumped about the Chevy. I got a Chevy announcement. I told you guys I'm driving from Chicago to New York today. I'm picking up my dog.

We drove here. I'm doing it in a Chevy. I had options at the smart car service, but there really wasn't. There's only one option and then it's Chevrolet. So I'll be traversing the Midwest into New York and a Chevy the next few days. Chevy was found in 1911. Wow.

They've been doing it. Doing it well for a long time. They told their first car for 2,100. $150. Which is probably equivalent to like $500,000 today. Right. That's pretty remarkable. I mean, they have the Corvette.

They've got the Suburb. I mean, Chevy is just an American muscle brand. You think about just clanging and banging steel. You're talking hammers on steel. You're thinking sweat on the brow. You're thinking coal on the face. I'm thinking Chevrolet. I really am.

It's one of those brands where I'm just, I'm seeing that bow kind of just riding through all the fucking rubble. And you just, it emerges through. you're like, what is that brand? It's Chevy. That's what it is. Chevy EVs for everyone everywhere. Go check out their website today.

Without giving away too much, imagine we were able to release our Taylor Made video with Collmore Cowell this week. Oh, my goodness. That's a tease for what we've got going on. But there's a lot that happened in that match that is, yeah, there's a lot that happened that would be quite, quite entertaining for people to see this week. It'd be a little relevant. Be a little relevant.

Very relevant. I think he deserves a lot of. of credit. He stood in front of the media, he took their questions, and he was already thinking about how he can improve. That's kind of how the way he processes things. And again, he, he showed out to Hawaii with like a very different golf game. His chipping is, and pitching is completely different. His putting is completely different. So the point where I, I really, re-listen to the interview that I did with him at the hero. And listening to him talk about putting, he's saying, like, you know, I was basically blind out that I had no idea what I was doing. Now I feel like, you know, if, before I was trying to,

to build an IKEA couch with no manual. Now I have a manual. Kind of to the point where it's amazing that a guy who's that good and number two in the world was flying that blind when it comes to putting. Like how does Colin Morikawa not have an understanding of putting? Yeah, I don't get that. It's kind of, that's kind of bullshit to me. You know, it's like he didn't understand putting.

Like, come on. I mean, watch him on putts to win major championships. That's what I'm saying. Like, he's led the PGA tour in putting multiple times. for week. Obviously not a great putter. Like he's very inconsistent, but he's had great putting weeks. But I guess what he's saying is like for him, the great putting is for just kind of random. He didn't really have any idea why they were happening. Now he sort of says he feels like he has a better understanding of why he hits good putts or why he hits bad butts. But it's right. You'll hear guys talk

about that. And you're like, really, did you really not understand putting? Did you really not know how to chip? Because I've seen you win tournaments against us. Right. I like, I don't understand putting. We know a guy that. I mean, I also like to say that I would, skip out on the media so fast after if I played around like that. Like I know we've got guys in this podcast who are the media members and they want to like talk to the athletes. I would skip out. I'd be gone. I'd be in a car back to the hotel just like I no, I don't want to talk.

Right. And what's different about golf in other sports? Other sports, they are contractually obligated to give interviews. Right. And they can get fined if they don't. That's not the case in golf. There's no rule. They can just leave.

Yeah. See ya. Yeah. Fucking see you. I just law. I mean, you want. $1.5 million. I'm looking at the purse. It's insane how I was in the last place 200k for last place. Dude, John Ron made $2.7 million.

Colmore Cowell made 1.5. It's like, what the fuck are we talking about? Not a bad week. Not a bad week, but I still would just be like, fucking see ya. That 2.7 number I saw, I was shocking when that came across by my dad. That's what they're all going to be now. 7 million dollars he made out in Hawaii with the whales and they're fucking around under the stars. Mike Essie. crazy at that. 2.7's a lot, but I wonder if you told him that. It's inconceivable. I wonder if you told John Rom that yes, you won $2.7 million, but Todd Lewis has to, has to shake your belt after.

I don't know if he takes that deal. I saw this happen post around last night. She came across your desk last night. This came across my desk last night. I'm watching the golf. Todd Lewis comes in with the most aggressive handshake of all time from a distance, dude. Like I've really never seen someone cocked up like that. I know Trent, did with President George W. Bush. I also did it with Rory at, with Rory, but dude,

this was a, this was like a three step walk with this hand out. And he's walking slowly, walking slowly. Brom looks at the hand for a good second at this coming in. And watches the video, I put up a bunch of like stills because you can't, because the fucking golf channel will just ruin my Twitter if I put up a video.

Oh, yeah. He looks down as Todd Lewis is then, he had to resort to legitimately shaking his belt. He puts his hand on his underbelly and just shakes his belt. Like he puts his hand on one of the loops and just kind of moves it up and down for a second. It was a wild scene. Something I've never seen before in sports history. Do the Spanish not shake hands like that?

I don't understand why. If you looked at it, why wouldn't he go? More of a double kiss situation. Yeah, I understand. He should have went cheek to cheek. But yeah, it was, I felt for my boy Todd Lewis there because my God, that is just on TV to have that. happened forever and for me to have to tweet that out like that's just never going away so it's a it's a mess it's a swing and a mess yeah and i i don't know that he was really that to blame

maybe he presented the challenge a little too early uh but yeah yeah i feel bad for him too because that's yeah it seemed like john rome was just not familiar with like a hand being presented to you to shake it yeah that it's you know it is super embarrassing for todd lewis but it's why didn't john rome except there's nothing worse than having that hand out there for a hand check that doesn't get seen the I mean you're an expert you're accepted watch the watch snap that son of again oh he legit grabs his belly and you have well you got to do something right like in that moment when I was with George W I wanted to you want to cut your hand off you don't want to have a hand anymore let's see we're watching it again here oh he's going and he's going in now he's just

gently caressing John Rom's belly. And he kind of looks down like what? And his wife looks down. Like what was that? They both kind of look at it. He just touch his belly button. At that point, you just got to grab his dick and be like,

we're doing an interview. He just shakes his dog. Congratulations, man. Really, really good comeback. I liked John Rom had some comments about his outfit because he was wearing red shirt black pants. That happens to be a staple of a different golf player.

and he was very honest afterwards because he was asked about it. I don't know who asked about it exactly, but one of Dan's colleagues, which I love that you guys are in there asked these types of questions about the outfit. And he had a long answer about how he forgot the belts that he wanted to bring. So he brought only navy and black belts. So then he was required to only wear navy and black pants the whole week,

but he didn't want to wear the black pants because it was too hot. out so he wore the Navy all week but then he got to the point Sunday where he thought it was ridiculous that he'd been wearing Navy literally the entire week so he wore the black pants on Sunday and only had the red shirt to go with it and then he said he forgot his socks too so I like the little human aspect of it I don't think anyone would have noticed if he wore if he wore navy all week I think that kind of just would have flown under the radar except for maybe that was like his big reasoning was like well yeah I didn't want to wear navy again on Sunday and that was like the whole point and he's like because he made the very

clear comments of, he goes, I usually don't want to wear anything that's close to red with black on Sundays because of Tiger. That's his outfit. That's why I wear gray or navy or other things usually. I don't want to get close to him on that. So he's like very conscious about it, but then just did it. What's what I thought? I've got a, I've got a, a sartorial, a sartorial take here. Sort of. Yeah. What's it that? Having to do with clothes and fashion. I don't know. I don't know. I don't That's a new one for me. Give me the origin, please. S-A-R-T-O-R-I-A-L.

Relating to tarring clothes or style of dress. Satorial elegance. Yeah. So I've got a sartorial take here. J-J-J-S-Pon wore a shorts-leave button down on Friday. It's four-play social posted it out there being like, what do you guys think? People were losing their minds because it was untucked. It was untucked.

You can't tuck in a shorts-leave button-down shirt or your shirt. going to explode if you play golf. It's physically impossible. I think each tournament should have its own dress code. Just like every golf course has its own dress code. Let the boys wear the shorts leave button downs in Hawaii if they want to. I think they can wear whatever they want. I agree with that.

I just think he looks bad. If Memphis wants to let the guys wear shorts in the middle of the summer, let them wear shorts. If Augusta wants to ban hoodies and ban joggers, let them do that. Every golf course has its own dress code. Let's let every tournament have their own dress code. Then the apparel companies will like it because they'll get to show off more than just athletic polos. I still don't know why JJ Spahn doesn't like me.

He completely missed what actually happened when I quote unquote talked shit about him. It was when, remember when he won that tournament prior to the Masters and he got in? He couldn't even hold the door for Tiger Woods. Right. It was to talk about how incredible Tiger Woods playing at the P. it was the PJ Championship.

It was incredible to talk. Oh, was it the Masters? What was it? Can you guys help me on that? Which was it? I think it was the Masters because I think, I think he like won the week before to get into the master. That's right.

Then we saw him at the PJ. And he was, yes, and he was the first one to tee off at the Masters. And I was like, it's an amazing story. This guy just won a tournament. He needed to win to get in. And he did. And I'm like, even that guy with an amazing story, usually on any other week would have been like the headline news, teeing off first at the Masters, the whole deal.

Even that guy couldn't hold the door for Tiger Wood because that guy dominates all golf media. him just showing up is the biggest story. And then JJ Spahn's like, who's that pizza boy talking shit? And like got all aggressive and shit. When I joined the podcast, he goes, it was like, you know, the tweet from was like, we hired Dan Rapaport and his response was great. I'll probably hate him more than Pizza Boy. Right.

And then. What's the wrong with this guy? Well, then when pressed, you said, oh, I can't hear you behind that grain of rice. Yeah. If he wants to say it to my face, someone get him a step stool or something. Um, back to Sartorial takes. You know, we're allowed to fucking, you know, you know, we're allowed to fucking, you You know, he, he, he, the way he says fucking pizza boy is so, like, down upon me.

That's like, it's like, it's respectful. Dude, from the other side of the ropes, he's like, who's that pizza boy? First of all, what's, do you not like the pizza industry? Are we like, should the pizza industry cancel J.J. Spahn? I mean, come on, dude. Like, yeah, that's a really, really good job is to be a pizza boy. I'm rooting for this rivalry to continue for a long time. Whatever, man.

Would you fight him in Rough and Rowdy? No, I'm not fighting anyone. First of all, my neck. I've got the C6, C7. protrusion of, I have a protrusion. It's not even, it's actually, the disc is now protruded. Back to sartorial takes. Really bad.

I don't know, I don't know if I would want dress codes at everyone. The only dress code I would want is like really stringent ones. Yeah, like it does that. Not, but I'm saying like everyone has to wear like they have to wear insane clothing. Like I can't, I don't know what it is. They have to wear a suit basically like, remember, like they did in the 20s or the 19. Right. Like, if the British Open was like, all have to wear what they all wore in the 16 and 1700s, then I'm in. Like, you can't just be like, you can't wear a hoodie. You can't wear joggers. I want it to be, you have to wear the historical, historically accurate clothing of the tournament.

You can have like themed days. Thursday could be like tie day. Everyone's got to wear a tie. Yeah. But also I want, I would actually prefer it to go the other way. It's a little corporate. That's almost getting a little too like, you know, Hawaii. and Friday in that, which is like we, you know, Barstool kind of did to make fun of. That's like, I, I'm, I would like the strict, the strict stuff. If the big tournaments were like, we're so legit that you have to abide by what we're saying you need to wear to be presentable in our tournament, I would like that. Like the, yeah, like the story of white, there's a story a few years ago about how like somebody told the story of, you know, back in our day. when they would walk both ways, you know, uphill both ways on the way to school. It was like when we got, when we showed up to the U.S. Open, we would show up, find a blue blazer, walk over to them, take our hands off, shake or take our hats off, shake their hand and thank them for having it at their tournament.

And now at the U.S. Open, the players just shit on the U.S.GA the whole time and say that they've lost control the golf course. And so that I would like it that way around where it's like they demand. such respect at certain tournaments that you have to wear whatever they say you have to wear. You've got New Year's goals.

I watched, dude, back in the day, it must have been so exhausting to have to be so cordial and, like, follow all of the social rules because I watched the pale blue eye this weekend. Christian Bale's in it. It's all about Edgar Island Poe. It's an amazing, amazing movie.

I know I've been given out a lot of recommendations where I've been saying amazing. This is actually a fantastic movie. Fantastic. I think it's on HBO Max or it's on Netflix. And it's just like every time Christian Bell talks to someone, the hats off, you kind of just like, and you're so proper to like, because it's all kind of taken place in, in like a military setting at West Point back in, you know, 1800s or whatever. And so everyone's very much like, even the fucking lieutenants and everything. Imagine having to every single second. And I know like current military is kind of like that as well where you have to be fucking.

I would say it's very similar. Right. You have to walk in like this. You have to go straight. Then you have to make a right. Follow orders. Yeah. Yeah.

But not even just follow orders. But like everything to like the way your eyebrows are fucking. You can't like raise them. You can't lower them. It's, I can't even imagine having to think like that. I wouldn't even know what I'm saying. I'd be thinking about all my physical attributes like the way that I'm standing and more than what I'm saying. I watched a, um, an episode of how.

of the dragon yesterday on the on a flight and what the Lord Coralist goes can I speak honestly and the king goes I always appreciate candor for my most trusted advisors. Yeah. Could have just could have just said yes. Even the language. Yeah. When you go back to all English language, it's it's madness the way that they talk. It's so indirect.

It's like you can't just ever say like you. It's like it's crazy. See now I would be in favor of that they had like a language prose type rule where you had to speak in like old English. when you played in the Open Championship. I like something along those lines. Now that would be you had to like study for leading up to it and answer questions only in old English format where you reverse sentences like Yoda kind of.

I'd be in on that for sure. But. Old English is wild, man. Just way too many words just to get to the point. And then when did that change? Like did we just get, did we just dumb it down just so that it was easier to understand? Like what happened?

I feel like the World Wars. I feel like the World Wars really took a lot of shine off everything. I feel like after World War I. I feel like after World War I and all those like rules of battlefield of like we're not going to attack at night. We're not going to attack on Christmas. All that shit just went right out the fucking window. I saw someone post, I think of Shane Gillis posted a Norm MacDonald joke about Germany. He's like, you know, all these people thinking about North Korea.

You know, I really think the problem is Germany. He's like, he's like, you know, they just decided to just like say, we're going to go to war. And they're like with who? He's like, the world. He's just like. And then he's like, they're like, they're. Then like 30 years later, they're like, we're going to do that again. I think the world should just be like, you're not a country anymore on account of you just keep fighting the world.

That's not allowed. It is very funny. It is crazy. Like you try to read Shakespeare, it's impossible. It is a different language. Didn't he make up a lot of the words that we know today? He just made them up. Yeah, like thousands of them.

Yeah, he made it a lot. Yeah. But I will say going through like Shakespeare with a, you know, a language. professor, teacher, whatever, who understands it and explains it to you is incredible how impressive that person was with language. He invented the word lonely. There's a whole bunch of them. What?

Yeah. Lackluster, elbow. Ler is a great one. Where is elbow even coming from? I feel like that's not. King Lear, 1608. There you go. But it's elbow as a verb.

Oh, like to elbow somebody. Yeah. Dauntless, dwindle. Swagger. Ooh. That's a big one. Midsummer's Night Dream, you wrote swagger. Unaware.

You've been a swagger like hundreds of years ago? That takes serious swagger to do that. We have to thank Mr. Shakespeare for this one. Unreal. I mean, I use that. It's a clothing brand. One of our great clothing brands. McBeth, 1623, you wrote unreal.

I'm reading this book right now called Amusing Ourselves to Death. And it's basically about how the culture changes when the medium changes. when the medium changes. Like, its big focus is going from how we went from printed media to television media and how that changes like how like television is very performative when print media is more like, here's the facts. When you put it on TV,

people are like, oh, I have to look good and I have to say in a way that's interesting. But they start from like the beginning. And this part blew my mind when they're talking about when the invention of watches and clocks came around and how that changed people's perception. of a day and how they conduct themselves throughout the day. Like before that,

before watches and clocks, you're just kind of, you're just living and you're just feeling it out. You're just kind of like, this is going on, this is going on. Yeah, it's a field game all the time.

It's a feel game. But then when watches and clocks come around, they're like, oh, it's noon. So I'm going to do this. Oh, and then it's 3 p.m. And I'm going to do this. It's super,

super, super interesting how when things get invented and mediums change, how that changes human behavior. Coffee. Coffee. I mean, coffee changed the entire world. I was reading how to change your brain on plants. It's Michael Pollan book. Before coffee, people were basically, they couldn't drink water.

So they were drinking beer all day. And when that happens in the winter, you just got no shot on days when there's no light. And it doesn't get light until, you know, eight in the morning and it gets dark at 5 p.m. And you're like hungover. You're not doing any work. And then coffee came along. And all of a sudden, people could like, oh, we're going to have a meeting eight in the morning because you fucking drink your coffee. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry that the sun's not up yet. Trent, that reminds me a lot of like a vacation type place like to live in, which is like Scottsdale, like a month ago when I tweeted out that that guy came up to me on the driving range and it was like 3.45 in the afternoon. He gave me just a very sincere, good morning,

how are you today? And was just getting ready to hit balls on the range. And I was like, well, I mean, the sun's setting probably at about an hour and 15 minutes. This guy had no clue what time of day. Well, that's the other thing. Watchers,

you can spot. insane people when you come across it. Frankie liked the clock thing. I could tell. That peaked your interest a little bit. It did. It really did. No,

the whole thing is very interesting. I, yeah. I did a lot more research on how record players work and I still haven't found the answer. Oh, somebody hit me up about that. Somebody hit me up because I had said, imagine,

you know, trying to communicate with aliens and what, what hardware they're going to send to us to be able to decipher what they're saying. And apparently NASA or one of those bodies sent out a record player and records. Just like, you know, if an alien finds this, here are our instructions. I think they sent out like a Beatles record and they put a bunch of music in there. And so the way that we are like on the forefront of communicating with aliens.

What's the name of that thing? We like sent it out. I think it's called the golden record. Is that right? I think it's called the golden record. I'm looking it up. But there's just like this is us. Yeah, but it was on something.

It was on something. The Voyager. The Voyager. I just looked it up. The Voyager message is carried by a phonograph record, a 12-inch gold-plated copper disc containing sounds and images selected to portray the diversity of life on planet Earth. And the Voyager is just moving around? It's just like floating.

No, yeah. Well, it finally like exited our orbit like recently. Like it's gone. Like it's in another. Do we self-communication with it? Or it's just out of our galaxy. now it's like in an it's like out of our galaxy it's in other realm of like in the 70s 80s we sent this puppy out there rigs on that thing that you just looked up are there

examples of what we sent like what are the specifics like what did we choose as humans to say if someone was to find us this is what we want them to listen to it's got to be pretty sure one was a Beatles record or like a Beatles I think you're right um it's got to be like different languages there's got to be like some Chinese child like it's like readings in a bunch of different languages like every language on earth let me let me find this here Playback. What a fascinating fucking project. Also,

there's no chance they know how to play that record. Well, that's what I was saying. Like, the aliens are going to get that. They're going to bring it down to them. And they're going to be like, well,

what do we do with it? They're going to be a bunch of Frankie Burrell. What do we do with this thing? I'll fucking go through some of these right now. I'll go through this. Track by track. First track. Greeting from Kurt Waldheim,

Secretary General of the United Nations. 44 seconds. Second one. Greetings and 55 languages by various artists. That one's funny. Three minutes and 46 seconds. So I guess that's just three,

almost four minutes of just saying hello in 55 languages. Okay. United Nations, number three, United Nations greetings slash whale songs by various artists. Wow. So they took those like the songs that whales, you know,

the noises when they communicate back and forth. I would guess, right, just like that. I would guess they took those. and put those in there of like a representation of what animals, not just humans, sound like.

It's like a sound of an explosion to show them like, hey, we're not fucking around here. Just a new threat. Yes. This one's the sounds of earth by various artists. I don't know what that is. It's probably just like crickets and birds and water streams. All right.

Yeah. Now we got. If we're being honest, if we're reviewing this thing, I think you got to get to the good stuff earlier. Like this is like, You would make a mixtape for the, for the girl that you like, you'd make a mixtape for her. Like, oh, she's going to love this.

She's going to love that. I think if you gave this to a girl, she would be like, I'm fucking bored through the first four. You got to hit him with like, beat it by Michael Jackson or something. You got to fucking hit him with something that's going to be a bigger. Make their fucking feet bounce. Right. Like the national anthem by Jimmy Hendrix at Woodstock. Just fucking whee.

Like they're like, what is this? Yeah. All right. Here, number five, we get to Sebastian Bach, who's obviously. a legend, but this is sort of, we're composing, right? We're not really into like heavy rock yet. Number six, we've got, I don't know this one, uh, kettle on. So obviously this is going to be, uh, different type that is culture.

It says kinds of flowers. So I think that's a translation of what that is. That's kind of a miss. Uh, number seven. I don't, again, I don't know this one. I'm not, let me try to find one that. I don't know that we really exceeded it. I think if an alien finds this, they're going to throw in the trash and be like, I don't want to, this civilization is incredibly boring.

Yeah, this too is still pretty brutal. Yeah, these are kind of lame. We got some blues there. So Louis Armstrong and his hot. I want like, LeBron James. Right. There's no skater boy by Avrilavine or anything. Like nothing to really show who we are.

Right. No Rihanna? I don't understand. This is tough. Yeah. They didn't do a great job with this. We got to send another one out there, I would say. the um no i don't really see any

any great ones put on your disc that you send out to the aliens the last thing is beethoven i think that's probably right i think they did a good job with that honestly the clip of the of the of the bills uh naeem hines i mean obviously a little recancy bias here but him taking it to the house was the first play after damar hamlin like that was here you go freck you're going to like this special sagan's team wanted to include the beatles song here comes the son on the record but the record company em i which held the copyrights The client.

You can't have record label politics interfere with what you send to aliens. You know why? That record company was like, this song is so good and so generational that whoever gets this is just going to replicate it and then there's going to be Beatles all over the universe and they don't want that.

They want to be the only ones. No, Matt, that's an honor. I hate it, but I think that's why. What higher honor is there? We're trying to show society. We want your song. I don't know, dude.

The Royal House is not going to work. You have to think about that's how good the Beatles are. They were like, at some point, there's going to be other worlds that accept this music and we don't want them to have it. That can't be the reason. Yes, it is. That is. We're the only ones ever, ever, no matter what. It's not what they're worried about alien residuals.

I don't understand. This is why Taylor Swift has been saying record companies are the worst people ever. They want that money for those clicks regardless of what realm it's in. All right. So, Frankie, what would be the first thing you put on the alien record? I don't know. I have to think about this now. It's got to really hit you hard.

Tiger went in the 2019 Masters. That's just that clip on CBS. But we're talking like if you had a record, like an actual disc and you had to put your first song on to show another, another species. Wow. I might do when the levy breaks. I know that's kind of,

and that's nothing against, that's nothing against New Orleans, but I have to stick with my guns. I think that song is like, holy fuck. That's what these guys are able to do. don't you think Beatles across the universe would be the best one yeah i would go with like yesterday maybe by like here comes the sun is really good let it be by lenin yesterday like something that's

very peaceful because i feel like you know those are very like yeah well i mean a little bit i would all i mean the 20th anniversary just passed but i would put 50 cents into club that'd be the first one i would put in there if the aliens want a party they're going to love that the most but no beetles beatles Beatles just feel like the right, the right band to go with. They're the most famous band that has ever lived in the history of our civilization. They made great peaceful music. And that's kind of the message that you want to send to an alien race.

So the Beatles are just like an undoubted. I just have to correct you there. The Beatles are just an undoubted number one. Let it be. Oh, you're a beetle snob? No, I just know that people are going to be like,

well, it wasn't linen. That's a fair race. We think the Beatles are definitely bigger than like Elvis Presley. The Beatles are it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

The Beatles are it. Elvis was a sensation. Obviously, he's huge, massive. But like, I don't know. And a lot of people probably think,

like, the Beatles are not all that because they got fucking all that love. But they just did something no one else did. I just, you know, Elvis was kind of like from a different culture. He like took things from different cultures.

I just feel like the Beatles came on the scene with their own kind of style. And that's why they're going to be the goats of all time. Well, if we're talking. fame than it's definitely them. Yeah. Like just in terms of notoriety. I mean,

they're, yeah, they're as big as it gets. Yeah, and I like their just message in general. So, I'm a welcoming message. I've gotten way more into them

in the last three years, three to five years. And they're, I got to tell you, they're pretty great. I was thinking of imagine. That's where I fucked that up. Here's another line from,

um, great song. This is from Anne Druian, who said in 2015, yeah, that was one of those cases of having to see the tragedy of our planet. Here's a chance to send a piece of music into the distant future and distant

time to give it this kind of immortality and they're worried about money. We got this telegram from EMI saying that it would be $50,000 per record for two records and the entire Voyager record cost 18,000 to produce. However, this was denied in 2017 by somebody else. I don't believe that guy. And that's an that's a psycho number. 18,000 is all they spent to send this thing to outer, I mean, to make this record. $18,000. I guess a don't know.

Here's another one. How about this? This is funny. NASA uploaded the entire audio, audio contents of the record to SoundCloud in 2015. And just plug in their own. I'll absolutely listen to that when we're on here. I actually want to hear what they put on there.

It would be funny if, you know, technology has advanced so much since the time that they sent this out. Like, let's do another one and put it at a speed where it just passes the one that they put out in the 70s. So we don't. So one is so boring, dude. Voyager 1 is now billions of miles outside the heliopause as far as the boundary as Neptune is from Earth and speeding onward at about a million miles a day. It's still only, it's still only about the distance that Neptune is from Earth. That doesn't, it feels like it should be way farther.

Doesn't it? It's been going for 40, 50 years. I think it goes a million miles a day. Neptune's out there. That's a lot of miles. I think it's fucking moving. It seems like a lot. But I guess I mean, we sent out Voyager 2.

What was on Voyager 2? Did we have like a second chance at this with the, with the, what was on Voyager 2? When did that go out? I don't know. I'm seeing this right now. Voyager 2 is a space probe launched by NASA. in 1977. They knew they fucked up.

Right. It's a redo. Both Voyager spacecrafts carry a greeting to any form of life should that be encountered. The message is carried by a phonograph record, a 12 inch gold-plated. All right. So they both have... We need something where you could just press a button. I think what you're saying is that...

SoundCloud. Yeah. Just take the SoundCloud, guys. We've gone into this before. But, yeah, I think if they encounter... If anything encounters and is able to... track or accept or see that we like we've sent something they're going to be so much farther sophisticated advance that we are that I don't think them play in that record is going to be a

single problem I think it take them half a second to just look at it and it will just start playing you guys are right these like literally like legitimately you guys are alien groupies well you think just a couple idiot aliens stumble upon that record being what is this the most interesting thing they're up there in a spaceship but they can't play the fucking record the most interesting thing I I've ever heard about aliens and I

thought it was was that when we run encounter these aliens the chances of them being at the same level of us in terms of technology is incredibly rare it's either going to be way way far or way way low so I you know I think the chances of either are pretty

I think they're the same so I don't I know people love to talk about how aliens are going to, you know, they're going to come and they're going to kill us because they're going to be way more advanced than us. I don't necessarily believe that. I have a confession. I went to Tommy John's website last week and I didn't email anybody begging for stuff asking for this. I just went to Tommy John's website. I do this about once a year now. And I just spent about $200 and I got boxers that are going to now last me for this entire year because I I couldn't even fathom being in anything else and the travel that we do.

You got to pack. You're not sure exactly when you're going to be able to do laundry, how fast you're going to be able to do it. Tommy John is the most comfortable, the highest quality, the best material for this type of garment, which you need to live as a person. And it's not even close. So I'm proud to support them. And I'm very excited this week. My package comes in with all my new Tommy Johns.

And it's life changing. It really is. We've had Tommy John for so long that I now have a favorite pair. I have about 15 to 20 pairs of Tommy John. And this is like, you know, when you've had underwear and used to have boxers, you always had that favorite pair. The other day, I'm looking through and I got one specific one that might have been a little whitewash because of going in the hot tub or like chlorine, maybe like you wore it. And it's got a little bit of a whitewash color to it now. It used to be gray.

Now it's like got a little greenish color. And I wore it. And I'm thinking of myself, like, why did I pick this one? And it was because I was playing pickleball and I wanted to feel the most comfortable. And that was the one that I knew I'd be the most active and limber. and like I just knew it. It's very strange to Tommy John. It's not strange because it's the best,

but Tommy John has now entered that part of my life where I have a favorite pair of boxer and it is Tommy John. Like it's that the one out of the 20s my favorite one. It's amazing. It's gotten there. Like they've just been an advertiser and a sponsor. And now I can't live without it. I can't.

That's your game repair. I would imagine like hockey players have a favorite stick bad like baseball players have a favorite bat. You got a favorite pair of Tommy John's to go play pickleball. That's right. Tommy John loungewear pajamas and underwear. have dozens of comfort innovations like luxuriously soft, try blend and micro model fabrics with four-way stretch and no lint balls or fuzz.

There were just giant lizards running around. place. Massive lizards everywhere. And now we use their bones for fucking gas. We do. Which is just something we don't think about. We need that stuff. There's people that like don't believe in dinosaurs even though like it's literally go fossil fuels. Are there people that don't believe that dinosaurs were real? Well, if you, if you accept Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as you're, as your, the timing is all off. What do you mean? The world started 5,000 years ago. Right.

true time that's what i was told it that's what i was taught timing's a problem with a with a straight face that we maybe they didn't have a thousand years old yet so they don't there are a lot of people frankie to answer your question who believe that dinosaurs roamed the earth with humans because of the timeline because of the timeline and they're like oh there's all these things in the bible about these great beasts you know and maybe those were the dinosaurs right i'm not buying it personally i'm pro science just want to get that out there but there are people who believe that do you in Jurassic Park, when they use the fly and the whole deal and then they they bring the dinosaurs back with the DNA, I felt like that was pretty convincing. So I'm kind of surprised they haven't figured out how to just do that.

I think Clem has always been on top of these blogs about, he'll see like some sort of lab is working on like the Jurassic Park model. And I remember recently they actually, someone was successful in something. And I don't know whether it was creating a random animal out of just whatever, like taking the dead particles of another one and creating a new one or whatever it was. I'm obviously butchering whatever he blogs about. But he's always on top of like they should not do Jurassic Park because have you ever seen the movie? They just like overtake the world. Why are we doing this? No, I'm not saying it's a good idea, but I'm surprised I haven't done it.

Because like they can just clone humans and other stuff like they. They should just be able to clone the dinosaurs. Yeah, you'd think there'd be like DNA in the bones that we have. It's got to be able to find it somewhere that they could. 2018, Clem said the scientist who has consulted for every single Jurassic Park movie thinks that science is five years away from bringing back dinosaurs. When did that go back? That was in 2018. Oh, yeah, that's this year.

We're. Yeah. We're there. Yeah. All right. Soon enough. Right. Time to put up or shut up.

I could see like Putin or somebody weaponizing them pretty. pretty, right, if they came up with like bringing T-Rex back and he's just been incubating and holding on to them for this time and they're about to be adults and he's just going to unleash them on your on Ukraine, strap a nuke, strap a nuke to the little arms of the T-Rex. Just like real Dr. Evil shit. I heard, I heard Putin's on the way out. He would be a great candidate to just be like, I'm putting dinosaurs on Earth before I leave.

Yeah, Putin's not doing so hot apparently, huh? I saw one tweet. Is that the latest? I think health wise. He has cancer, doesn't he? That's what I saw. I saw one tweet that said he has cancer and he could die soon. There's been whispers, I feel like about that for a while.

But is he super paranoid? And he like won't even get within like he sits like the is super long conference tables. And he sits at the other side by himself. And like he definitely. He definitely still has people like sampling his food. Like he's a king in the 1500s. Yeah. I mean, he's a piece of shit.

But if you're Vladimir Putin, you got to, you got to people, people are not to get you. Is he going to miss Ovi break, He's goal record. That'll kill him. That'll kill him for the cancer. That's a prop bat. We can put that out of the basketball sports. Do we think that Putin survives until Ovechkin scores 85 more goals?

How far? Yeah. So what is that? He's like another season? I mean, the pace he's on right now might be two more seasons. But I mean, three more seasons, he's definitely going to do it. Oh, Putin ain't seeing that. You don't think Putin's dead in the next two years, three years?

I saw one tweet that said he could die soon. And I took it as gospel. Shut up for me. I don't, I don't think he sees June. Whoa, that's a big, you're saying, but natural causes? I'd also like to say that's not a threat.

That was just a prediction. Zelensky. He hasn't seen June because of what? Yeah, or natural causes or because you get to him? Because you knock down the doors. Tris. I think we got to cut that whole thing out.

Trens. Play times up, pal, he makes it to February. I'd be shot. The only thing more dangerous than Vladimir Putin is a dying Vladimir Putin. I don't need to be going on record.

He wants to do. Jack Ryan, meet Trent Ryan. That would be the most boring, like, military agent show of all times. Just be me sitting in my apartment. You're still rolling around. Shane Gillis,

like the sleepwalking police officer. Yeah. Put it in his nap. Be like a great adult swim show. Trent's like an agent. God, some fat. Of course,

birds are dinosaurs. so we just need to fix them so they look a little bit more like a dinosaur that's kind of what they're working on. There are a few creatures out there that could hang with the dinosaurs. The Komodo dragon comes to mind is one that...

How big is a Komodo dragon? Crocodiles, alligators, they're legitimately dinosaurs. I think sharks are dinosaurs still. Crocodiles have just, they were just there, right? They never... I think they were there.

I think they were there. Wasn't there a report that came out that dinosaurs actually had fur? Oh, yeah. There was something about feathers. Feathers. Feathers. Yeah.

Like, we picture them as scaling reptiles, but they actually might have had feathers. Yeah, they probably looked a lot more like birds than we think that they did. I can't have my dinosaurs being feathery. I agree. No chance.

I'm with a T-Rex with a bunch of feathers. It takes like he goes from a 10 to like a six with if he's got the feather. He's not scary now. He's just fluffy. Right. He's just like, Come on. Yeah,

he's like, come on. That's how right. He's got them little arms and now he's all furry and fuddly and cuddly. So cute. So cute. So cute. People say that about bears all the time that like they think they could like hug a bear and like cuddle a bear because they're so.

We could kill a bear looking. But like, God, you get close to that thing. It's over. They're not that bear. That bear. Yeah. Remember koala bears? Like, when we held a koala bear in in Australia, they're like, this thing's so high on drugs right now.

But if you, but if it wasn't, but if it wasn't, it would like rip your fucking face off. We were saying, we were saying, his name was Mozart, by the way. It's a bear. And we were pretending. Remember we were holding Mozart and we're like, I want to rip your fucking face off right now. We're holding Mozart. Come over here.

And he's like, well, they also said he'll that they can give you, it's not syphilis. It's not syphilis. It's herpes or, um, or hepatitis. Chlamydia,

chlamydia. He's looking at you with this dumb, slow smile, just being like, I'm gonna fucking rip. If I wasn't so fucked up right now, I'd rip your fucking face off. And you're just like holding it.

I'm like, take a picture of Mozart. That was, that was, that was, from the great fateful week of 2019 when what a week

dude that week keeps coming up I had a snake on my arms yeah Trent held a snake Australia is wild Australian Australian fucking Australia dude

just blew up and just blew up the media center oh man are we talking about are we talking about what we're doing at the at the waste management yet events wise have we are we talking about that yet

what's going on with that I don't know if we've officially announced I don't know if we have announced that yeah I think are we announced that this week? I think it's the Wednesday. I want to say, I want to say Wednesday is the announcement. Yeah. Wow. All right. I think Thursday. I'm going to check. We got exciting stuff happening in, Arizona. And I just, I'm just like, I'm, I'm kind of moving around in my chair. We're doing an event on Monday. I think we can say that. So, you know, people, people are going to see more details whenever

we're allowed to put those details out. But we are doing an event on Monday of waste management week. It's going to be fantastic. At an outrageous venue, I would say. An awesome, awesome venue that is very familiar to people that have watched this channel. Yep. I think that's right. So people are going to love that. Who's typing like that?

Me, I'm answering an email. Sorry. Oh, my God. You're a fast type. Do you have a typewriter? That was the audio. And that was kind of shocking. Don't you do something weird with typing?

Don't you do like all pointer fingers? Hunt and peck? I'm a pecker. I don't use, we called it Home Row growing up where you put your fingers like in the, what do you guys call it? Yeah, they got the little ASD, whatever, yeah.

The little bumps on the F and the J. Those mean nothing to you. Dude, that was, that was what was the light bulb in my, in my learning days was the little bumps. And you just kind of hover your pointer finger over the bump. And that's your left hand, the right hands, the other bump.

Trent was doing the pecker in the original promo or intro for the, um stool scenes remember that that was a huge part in slow mo you're doing it listen i had a moderately successful blogging career doing all pecs all pecs all the time can you type without looking at the keyboard oh that's a struggle no i don't think i could did you not have typing did you have did you have like typing classes when you guys were kids yeah i think i did enough to pass it and then i i just went back to what was comfortable i was i think i was right at the edge i think like literally I almost was just almost too old, but like the they introduced typing classes at like my age that that year. And then people after me, I think I will say it's, you know,

people would think that the pecking is slower. But when I get going, it's just as fast as a as a regular. Wham, wham, wham, wham, wham, I probably couldn't do it as well anymore. But when I would, when I would get going, you know, those things would come out hot. I remember. You're fast. The fast little pecker there. We took a lot of like, type. classes, but the one that really stuck to me was this multimedia class that I took. It was Ms. Moizen was her name at Woodland Middle School. And for some reason, that class always sticks with me because we learned a lot about like computers for sure, but then also advertising. And like that was the first time that I realized like how important and how subliminal advertising was. And we would watch like all these like shows and like TV like commercials and show like just how subliminal things are. It was fucking really eye opening for me. I remember being seventh grade saying like this is insane. Like, like, this is insane. Like, like Derek Cheater doesn't like Coca-Cola. Like, he's just, like, it's just, you're right. I remember we did a whole, I remember we did a whole week on hidden logos.

And that was like the coolest thing I've ever learned ever. Like all the sports logos, like all the things you see within a sports logo that you never actually see. Like the Milwaukee Brewers is like a huge M. And you're just like, no way. I remember being like, no, in the back of that. Like, and she'd put another slide out. I'm back, no. Going nuts.

I remember a class like that and one of the most interesting exercises that we did was we watched commercials on mute. When there's no sound, if you watch commercials on mute, it's a whole different experience. When you're watching it with sound, you're sort of just like you're getting pulled in each direction. But when you watch it on mute, you see what they're trying to do. It's if you're watching TV, try this for just one or two commercials. Watch it on mute and you will see clear what they're trying to do. It's really interesting. Is the theory on this because people like don't pay attention during commercials or they are or they're not listening?

I don't know. It's just like when you have like when you don't have sound involved, you're more, you have to focus more on what's actually happening during the commercial. So without sound, you're watching what the, oh, the lady's holding the the bottle closer to the camera or like it's just you start to see things that you wouldn't see when they're sound. I feel like commercials just don't really come across my desk very much anymore because I'm usually either like streaming stuff or if it's a commercial, I just go right to my phone. So I really, Miss Moyson would now in her in her 2023 version of her class, she definitely has examples of how they're they're advertising within streaming and you don't even realize it. You know what I mean? It's like, um, what's the fucking, uh, Jim Carrey movie?

Truman Show. Truman Show. Um, also the mask, but right. The Truman Show where like, like, every like, like. They're sitting down. He's eating breakfast and they're like looking at the camera and within like as he's breakfast and they're like, you know, fruity pebbles.

And she's like everything's a fucking head. Yeah. No. Advertising is very interesting. You ever notice how the islanders on their stick have like it looks like it's the tape on the stick, but it's four lines for the four cups. So how if they ever win another cup, hopefully in my fucking lifetime, you would think they would, they would actually change the logo and put a fifth stripe on the stick, which is fucking

electric. Yeah. It's like Argentina's got three stars now. Dude, all the new merch you can sell with just with one more fucking stripe on it would be so sick. Stripe, the star, it's sick. That's really cool. I never knew a lot of those things. I'm going to go back to our sartorial.

It'd be cool if like golfers had like stars for how many majors they'd want. That would be cool. See now, Tiger was like a fucking. It's got a purple. The one that always gets me is, um, Well, Amazon A to Z and... That's a really good one. FedEx.

And FedEx. That was the other one. That people probably know, but if they don't know it. What's the FedEx one? Oh, Frankie, please tell me you know this before. I probably know. Oh, is it an arrow? Arrow.

Yeah. Between the which letters would that thing. I think it's the E and the X? Yeah. Most people know, but if they don't, they're going to be like, wow, I learned something today. Yeah, we're going to get some tweets that are like, what the fuck guys and never saw that arrow. They're going to go crazy. They're going to go crazy about the logos now.

But I like it. I'll look at all the tweets. I love looking at logos. one is the best one. It looks like a baseball glove, but it's an MB. Or what about the Washington Capitals one? You see this, right? And then you just see the Capitol building. Whoa. Wow. No, I don't think I ever noticed that. What? Never. I never seen that. I mean, I've seen the logo. I've just never noticed the silhouette of the Capitol. Wow. Yeah. That was great. Yeah. That was a new one for all. It's a whole, it's a whole industry. There's a whole making logos is a whole thing. Shane Bacon. You guys know Shane from golf. He's got a whole business about, making golf course logos it's like a whole thing it's really cool it's really creative it's very very creative well um i like the um when you can do like 99 designs or whatever and they people

just send you a bunch of different shit all that stuff so dude i'm i'm actually on 99 designs right now i'm doing because you know from helping out my dad with something uh with a project i'm helping up my dad with something and i'm what i'm loving watching these things come in it is fucking amazing what so you you fill out like a thing and then people can essentially what you do is you go on this website and this fucking free advertising for whatever it is what it is but like it's a website that you can pay to have um your idea up there so like you make a title and then it basically goes on this like dashboard where all these designers freelance designers will then try and get you so like let's say you pay 300 bucks which i think is like the cheapest version you end up um whoever you pick

they get that money so like they're basically it's a challenge for them to get them to pick you so you can get 30 designs, you can get 12 designs, you can get 100 designs. But you write your description and then you respond to them being like, hey, I like this. Can you change that? Because they're, they're fighting for the money. Everyone, they're all trying to get it. But it's really fun to see. You know, it's wild is when you're pretty vague, like, I put up a thing on there and it was kind of vague. It was like a Borrelli's logo and it was like, I want to change it into something. And I didn't really say which route to go. And I've gotten four of them already. And they're all very similar where like, it's weird. I'll show you guys.

because I don't want to talk about the project just yet. It's actually exciting stuff, but it's fucking weird how like these designers have the same thought, but they change. You know what I mean? Like, I'm talking about colors were exactly the same in the same spots. Very strange. The fun fact, the Dad Bug Classic logo was from 99 designs. There you. Josh.

And then there's actually, I'm not going to say the course because I don't know that they want this information out there. This might have been told to me like over a few drinks at the bar. But a pretty damn prominent and well-known course, golf course, logo was actually done by 99. Oh, I know that one too. I think I was there. I know it too. I definitely,

I know it as well. But yeah. So it is very, it's a very prominent golf course, but people use it. Very prominent. It's a great service. 99 designs is a great service.

Quick, Sony open. We got to go through because we're going to do this for every tournament this year. We're going to go through and we are going to pick for the Marshall Sportsbook, that with four play. We're going to pick, um, you know,

three or so players each week. that we think we're going to make the cut. Barstool Sportsbook is going to boost those odds and we're going to ride together, baby. So I was going through the Sony Open field a little bit. It's obviously a bigger field than 39 people. So probably might be a ace this week. We might just have to look at these hole and one bets every time

and maybe bet every single one of them. I think we're, yep, we're committed. We have to write it out at this point. I saw a name on there that I can't even fathom missing the cut and that's Sung J. M. Well, he's favorite to win the thing, right? He should be. He's unbelievable.

Right. I feel more confident about a guy winning a golf tournament this week than I've felt since the 2019 PGA championship when it was just like Brooks Kepka is going to fucking win this tournament. It's a big golf course. This is what he does. Tom Kim, Tom Kim is just is winning the golf tournament this one. Wow. He just is. Yeah, I think he's 16 to 1.

I'm hoping we can get that. 12 to 1 now. 12 to 1. He's actually favorite with Sunjay. He finished. finished fifth last week. He shot 22 under par. And there's no like fatigue aspect. The guy's 20 years old. He's still so bright-eyed. Everything is new. He's so excited. He's playing this tournament for the first time. He hits the ball extremely straight. Sony Open is a tournament that takes driver out of your hands a lot. It's this old school Seth Rainer track where there's dog legs everywhere. You got to be in control of your ball. He's hungry. He's winning again this week. Three wins before turning 21. I'm feeling it. I'm really feeling it in my bones. Taking that for sure. I'm looking at my bars of Sportsweek app. I forgot. I got excited when Colomar Cowell was playing so well that I bet on him to win the

Masters. I think it was Friday or Saturday. Probably Saturday. What kind of odds you get on that? 17 to 1. Okay. So I was, and I feel bad now.

I don't feel bad, but it's funny looking back. Like I was like, oh, he's playing so well. He's absolutely going to win the Masters. I can just, it's also one of those things where you can see Colin Moracawa

wearing the green jacket. He's just, he's handsome. He's going to have that haircut that he's got now. And he's going to be wearing the green jacket. I just thought that was, But it's a super fair bet because, and I wrote this in the Monday morning wrap on BarcelonaSports.com is like, if Colin figures out his putting, it will be the most significant

improvement in a single aspect of someone's game since Dustin Johnson dialed in his wedges, which is something that people always turn to is like, all right, that's what turns him into this bomber who might win once a year to an all-time great. If Colin actually figured out putting, which I know Riggs and Trenner are a little bit skeptical, if he actually figured it out, this could, this could turn him into, I mean, he's already got two majors. I'm not skeptical on him figuring out putting. I'm calling a little bit of bullshit on the line. I didn't even understand putting or how to do it when he won two major championships

and was like the best player in the world and putting the ball into the hole. So that's what I'm calling the face to us. The phrase, it is a slap of face. The phrasing is a little off. Like you got to, you have to, he's only looking at it through his worldview. He's like, I am above average at all these other aspects of the game. It's the putting that I'm not as good at. And in his eyes, that is not knowing how to do something whatsoever.

His tempo is fantastic. His full swing tempo, I don't know how you go back that slowly. Don't like fall over, like puke on yourself. Like I just don't. It's amazing. It's amazing. And last week was fun, like the whole Morcawa thing except for the collapse because Taylor made was all over him last week. Essie was in there getting all kinds of good videos.

So like Tara made it posted a bunch of social stuff on him. Essie I saw was lying in front of Morcawa while he hit. I think he hit a driver like right over him. So it was like that was his week. I'm high on Morikawa. I like the Morikawa Masters bet. We do have to get to this. Let's pick three golfers for the Sony Open thing.

Are we picking? Are we picking three each of us or three for the group? Let's pick three from the group that will then have. Barstall sports book will put them together. I'm going to go with the honor. So for the Sony Open, I am going to pick this golfer to make the cut. And his name is Adam Scott.

And I, And I think the reason why is because he got a new social media manager maybe because he's been posting way different stuff on Instagram. He's been posting all these really cool. Like you could just tell like a photographer has been following him around and everything's very like edited. And obviously he was in Hawaii. So all the shots of him like hitting balls in front of like the fucking volcano and like all like the drop offs into the ocean were insane. And he was putting all these filters on all of his posts. And he really caught my eye this week.

Like whoever was whoever Adam Scott made a conscious decision. to change his social media game and I noticed and I think that is going to propel him into a solid 2023 season so I'm going Adam skies 33 to 1 so his odds might be a little bit better to love that yeah it's great for us yeah it's really good so I think Adam Scott for sure is going to make the cut that's my pick so do we is that three we got Sung J.M. Tom Kim and Adam Scott I'm going to repeal my Sung J. M because I didn't know he was like the favorite and now I feel like an asshole and I don't want everyone to tweet to me where to go out on a limerig. So I come up with a different one that's going to be totally other end of the spectrum.

I have no idea what his odds are to win. But I'm going to go Zach Blair. And this kind of is inspired by Frankie deciding that a good social media manager is the reason Adam Scott's going to play well this week. Zach Blair, I guess it's a little more tied to it. But I know he's a huge golf course architecture guy. He's got a course opening, the tree farms. Got a course opening.

And like I don't think he's the longest hitter on planet Earth. He's a littler guy, and I think being a Seth Rainer, old school, I see Zach Blair playing well and making the cut. 200 to 1 to win the tournament. It has to be outrageously good odds to, uh, okay. I'm gonna, I'm gonna go with, uh, with Matt Coacher. Okay. Our boy Cooch.

He finished, uh, his last start. He finished tied for third, I believe was he, was he with Harris English at the, uh, at the, uh, at the QBE finished time for third? I think so, because we had them on, didn't we have Harris on the show and we did. He finished. Coocher finished seventh last year at Sony. He's a past champion of the event. Sneaky had a much better year last year.

He kind of was pretty bad in 21. He put it together a little bit last year. And again, another guy who just keeps his ball in front of him. I cannot see him missing the cut this week. Matt Couture is my pick. All right. That's three right there now. We got three.

So I think we get to four. And this is going to be, this is going to be a plus like. Well, Zach Blair. Zach Blair is probably plus money just to begin. Right. I like this. JJ spawned 40 to one. I got my eye on that.

Oh, we got to pick, we got to put JJ in there. Yeah. Come on. 40 to 1 to win. I don't know if we want to put it in our, in our, make,

I'll make the cut bet, but I was just saying, I mean, he's, he, would he, what did he finish? He finished top 10.

Paul Eisinger said it's his favorite putting stroke on the PJ tours, JJ spawns. Hey, he's got nice, he's low to the ground. Everything about him's really, really good.

I just, he's a really good. He's a great golfer and I don't have anything against his golf game. I really don't have anything against him personally. I just wish he'd like me. That's my message to JJ Spawn is why don't you like me? I don't you're doing the greatest job if that's the I just, you know, these are kind of just like defense attacks at this point.

I mean, every time I see him, he kind of just throws these fucking, throws these daggers at me and he's like, who's that loser? I watched it yesterday and I was like, that guy hates me. I was like, I don't know, I don't know why. He just misrepresented what I said. He mistook what I said. So if, you know, if any people out there want to throw a sport behind you. and JJ Spawn. I think I'll probably throw a two dollars on that. I support

Jay J.J. Spahn making the cut this week. I would like to see that. All right. Well, let's We're going to throw this to Westie and the crew. We're going to get some combination of these names or hopefully all of them. We'll see what it looks like. And that's going to be available this week. So make sure you get your bet in. That'll probably go up like Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday. You'll be able to make that. Obviously, place that bet before

golf starts on Thursday so that you can bet with four play. We're going to do that every week. Also, sorry, not before we move on from the gambling segment. in one turn for the tournament. Um, whole and one in the tournament is minus 114. Look at the odds difference there.

It was my, that's crazy. Plus four, what was it, 460 or something? I think it was 4.50 or something like that. Or this course must have eight par three is. And a lot of guys playing.

So now that, I mean, I bet it last week with Riggs. I mean, I think we got to bet it just kind of. Definitely. Until it hits. And I,

I mean, minus 1114. It's basically going to, it's going to happen. I think, right. I think I'm going to take it every, week the whole year. I'm betting on an ace. And I'm rooting for fun.

I'm, aces are fun, correct? So I'm going to be on the side of every week. I'm rooting for good, fun things to happen. One of the most viral clips from the weekend was Max Homa and Justin Thomas hugging because they thought a whole and one was going to happen. That's what Riggs and I are rooting for. We're rooting for fun, rooting for a camaraderie, and we're rooting for people to win money. And that is what we're going to do with the whole and one. Imagine rooting against that. I'm rooting for the golf course. I'm written for the golf course. just making all kinds of statements about how that's just never going to happen.

You don't want that to happen. Everybody, and I actually got a bunch of tweets about it about the whole and one bet they were like about Max Homa and JT being like, we were so close. So if you rode with us last week, ride with us again this week. Hold on one.

Sony. A little different odds this week. We went from like plus 450 to minus 114. So it's a little different. So it's probably some numbers behind that. All right. Wingfoot just announced wingfoot will host the 2028 U.S. Open. Obviously, 2020 COVID year was when they did have their U.S. Open. We, Frankie, behind the Greens, put out the video with Steve Rabbitoo and the whole turf crew over there, which is one of the coolest things we've ever done. So I think people that are following this brand probably have a pretty, feel like they have a pretty intimate knowledge of what goes on at Wingfoot, especially with that course and making it as difficult and amazing as it was for the 2020 U.S. Open.

Wingfoot is one of those. It's on a list of seven or eight courses that you just think U.S. open with it, with Oakmont, with Pebble Beach, with Shinnecock, with Pioneers Number Two, you just clearly think U.S. opens. And obviously, Wingfoot is one of those. They, you know, it had been since 2006 when the Phil Mickelson collapsed, when the 2021 one was. So that's obviously a good 14-year difference.

This one's coming a lot quicker in eight years. So maybe that's a little surprising. but we love Wingfoot, New York, where you guys all live. I have lived there before, know the area extremely well. We love Wingfoot. Very cool. They're going back there. Great logo.

Directly across the street from Quaker Ridge, like right across the street. Just putting that out there. It was interesting, the way they set it up last year. Because in 2020, the fairways were so, so, so narrow that week. And the rough was so long that it really became. a kind of who can hit it for this contest because the I remember the field average for fairways that week was like 40 something percent. So if everyone's missing fairways, then it's about I think it was way lower than that. Maybe it was lower than that. But, but I just remember a lot of

guys coming off being, being like, it was just, it was so hard to hit fairways that it played right into Bryson's hands because it was just about who can fly it furthest and who can have the shortest club in from that insanely long rough. So it'll be really, and Winkfoot's kind of a unique course in that you can run it up. Like you, there's not a lot of bunkers in front of, in front of greens. There's areas to run it up.

So it kind of played perfectly into Bryson's hand. So I'll be interesting to see how they set it up because guys were definitely complaining about that last time. Every time they name a venue like this, like, oh, it's going to be in 2028 or when you, in the media center at all these tournaments, when you walk in above is where it's going to be in, you know, this year.

They'll put them out until like 2045. 51. 2015 one is handed out. I actually, that walk gives me anxiety because I just, all I think about is what am I going to be doing when that golf tournament has played there? Like, 2008, I'm going to be almost 40. And then when I walk into a media center, I walk into a media center, they're like, oh, 2051. It's like, I'm going to be dead. That's so long from now.

So, yeah, it's cool that it's going to be wing foot. But all I could think about was I'm going to be almost 40 when that golf tournament happens. Did you see, oh, so we obviously listen to Rogan from time of time. We always referenced him, Dave Port. and was on the show, three hour long podcast. Did you see the one thing that Dave said where it was like guys would just like trade lives with the football players,

like knowing all the risks and stuff for those 20 years? Like I actually had a huge discussion about that because of that segment with my buddies this weekend just talking about like what would you like you're saying like you might be dead by the time like the 2045 rolls around. We basically pose this question like would you take we're 29 so someone said would you take three billion dollars today if you knew you're going to die when you were 50 so i would get i would get 20 years of being a billionaire as opposed to you just

live the rest of your life the way you're living it and hopefully you live into your i just watched the uh the made off documentary uh on netflix which you guys should definitely watch but that's basically what he did he knew that it was going to end at some point and he said you know i i know my name's going to go down and you know the annals of history as like the worst person ever but you know these years in the sun are pretty electric annals of history is though his is filled with so much anxiety so much anxiety moving and shaking i watched that document it was really good people over in this scenario there's no anxiety it's just here's well that except that you're going to die much sooner than you would anticipate but you get three billion dollars and you die at 50 or maybe i guess it's

basically 20 years from where you currently are now because it would be less for you guys because you guys are old. You were more distinguished, more experience. If you didn't, if it wasn't guaranteed that you were just going to live to a certain age that's really high, then I would probably do it because like you could just die anyway. You know what I'm saying? Like if you're, if the other side of it is like you don't get the $3 billion and you're going to just live a normal life, whatever happens happens, I probably do it because you have

to factor in that you might just get sick or you might just get hit by a car. Right. There's no guarantees except the $3 billion. what you're saying. So I could not take it and then like rings of saying, I could go to the grocery store and get hit by a car. Still. And I would just be me.

Right. But I mean, law of averages and like the way the life expectancy is you're going to live into like 87 or 84 or whatever. Is that the average? It's like once you get past 50 because life expectancy, it factors in like people who die at a really young age. I think once you get to 50, it goes up to close to 90.

Yeah. I mean the, uh, people are advanced. Life expectancy is like almost 80% or 80 77.8. So almost 80 years old. With all the people dying at like whatever, so much younger. I think that factors everything in.

So 2020 US Open, Bryson hit 23 of 56 fairways, 41% and was tied for 26th in the field. And that's that, which is pretty good. He picked up 5.3 shots, strokes gained off the T, despite hitting 41% of his fareways. One of my favorite things from that U.S. Open. We did that video with Steve Ravidu. It's one of the best videos that I think I'll ever have my hands on. I watch it all the time because it's something, we're not in it, so you can just go back and watch it.

I don't have to cringe and, like, want to throw my phone out the window. It helps a lot. And we just, like, stumbled upon. I know, we do. Way better. People would just like us. Brendan and I just struck gold with that video because it's, everything just kind of worked.

I don't know what it was, the lighting and just the storylines and the characters and the music that we got. Rabbit is one in a billion. One and a billion. And it just worked. And one of my favorite things was they all watched it because we put it out like right around. I think we put it out like right there right before the

Wednesday. We put it out the Wednesday before the U.S. Open and they all watched it. The whole entire crew watched it on like a big screen that night like after work and all that tirelessly all that effort that they put in was insane and they're all just drinking beers watching it. And then

now we all knew this like storyline about how he was trying to make it as hard as possible meanwhile he couldn't really say that because like the us j wouldn't let him say that and he's just kind of like fighting his tongue being like i hope these fucking guys go like 50 over blah blah blah and when when so i would go back there because we had the credentials and i'd go see them and like how's everything going because once the tournament's on their job's done it's just like a regular thing like they just basically maintain it like they would any other day and it is what it is all their preparations over so they're kind of able to talk about it and Steve was just like kind of shaking his head all week as Bryson was tearing it up.

He's like this fucking like under his breath like this fucking guy, man. Like everything else was falling into place for them. Like it was holding up wing foot was holding up all of this talk about like is Bryson going to like break golf with this new strategy of just bombing it into the rough where he can use a wed. And he's like this fucking guy's beat like basically like this guy's beating me. He's like he was the only guy under golf course. He was the only guy.

He won by six. It'll be funny to see. they maybe rev it up just so that they don't have that one outlier guy he's just like this guy is doing what he said he was going to do how is that possible it's like what are we supposed to do to answer your question i think i take the three billion yeah just because it makes everything i mean my life's great i really i enjoy i love the job that i have blah blah blah blah um but three billion affects everybody like self like my yeah it is selfless my family my family my siblings.

Everybody, we just can do whatever we want. Taking $3 billion is very selfless, totally. That's not how I meant to frame it, but it ended up being that way. I mean, I get to just do whatever I want, but also like my, everyone and my family can quit their jobs. That's so much money for everyone, for all the kids that come around, grandkids, nephews, nieces, whoever. In 20 years, I'm going to be, in 20 years, I'm going to be like 53.

That's not a great age in terms of like wanting to live a way. long life. But I mean, those last 20 years are going to be pretty sweet where it's everybody You'll have done everything. You'll have done everything. You'll be like, there's nothing left for me. I've done it all. And what's cool.

Now we've seen in. We've just looked into the brain of a live golfer. What? We've just looked into the brain. Three billion? The decisions. Well, I'm just saying like they all made decision. Like everyone's life will be better.

I'm just like life changing money. It's insane. I'm just going to do it. Maybe in 20 years I got had that money. Maybe maybe in 20 years I get like, like sniped in the head by one of these guys because I don't show up to like an event. But you know, for now, life's pretty good. Live, uh, live lost another another executive gone.

Really? Yeah. They, uh, they, uh, dropping like flies. The COO, a tool, when I think he's back with the buccaneers, which makes sense. I mean, maybe the guy just didn't want to deal with the drama of working for, you know, live golf. I've heard he's back with the buckingiers. Um, and the, uh, Matt Goodman, who was their head of franchises.

That was his job also gone. So obviously the franchise model is. so important to this thing succeeding. And after one year, the guy was running it was gone. I asked Liv, they didn't, they didn't want to comment on it. So no comment. No comment. No comment.

No comment. Got a strong, no comment. But, you know, both roles have been filled on an interim basis as we search for permanent replacement. So it is, in my eyes are, my eyebrows are officially raised. You know, one guy leaves, you never know, but two guys who are that high up leaving coupled with the reports, we don't know if they're credible that it might be looking for someone to replace Norman.

And it seems like something's not exactly. adding up at the high level. Maybe someone's not happy. We have to remember that these people answer to the Saudi government. The YouTube views are not what's adding up. You think that's what it is? Short. Coming up short on those. Disconnect.

Like 13,000 people watching. Speaking of you. I don't think I take that deal, by the way. Really? I don't know that I take it. Like 50s is way too young. I've seen just way too many people. I mean, Tom Brady's playing in the NFL right now 45.

So it's like 50s just, I mean, 50 is a new 29. 50s not 70. 50 is crazy young. I mean, I'm looking at a lot of people in their 60s and 70s that are living hell of a life and just enjoying it. And even early 80s, I mean, you got guys out on the pickleball course in their 80s fucking playing. So I mean, you're making some friends in the 80s? Yeah, yeah, I am. They, uh, yeah, it's just, I'd have to really like sit down at the negotiating table and maybe like shave off a couple billion and add a couple, you know, 10 to 20 years on that.

Yeah. Because I don't know if I'd be able to do that. 50s fuck. And that is just. It's way too young, man. Dude, if you're like a 50-year-old, you'd be like the young, like, if you're a 50-year-old executive, they're like, wow, that guy's fucking a young, super star businessman. Wonder kid.

Now you're like the youngest president ever, right? I mean, like it would be like, no, not quite. U.S. president? You'd be young. No, I think what was Obama? Like 40. J.F.K. J-FK.

J-FK. Those guys grew young. I thought it was Obama. I think, I'm pretty sure. JFK was 43. Wow. I don't know. I'm going to look it up.

Well, my typing's really loud. But it's still really young. Those are still really young. Think about, like, I don't know that slick Willie. I don't think he was over 50 when he became present. Really? I don't think so, too. He was young when he was like this young whippersnapper from Arkansas.

I see him? I know it's hard to imagine him young. But yeah, what's that list, Trent? All right. What was Bush? Was Bush really young, too? Bush was 50s. I think he was around 50s.

I'd be my guess. All right. So the youngest president of all time upon taking office was Theodore Roosevelt. Whoa. He was 42 years old and 322 days. Okay. And then number two was John F. Kennedy. He was 43 years old, 236 days.

Bill Clinton is number three, 46 years, 154. And then number four, Ulysses S. Grant. Of course. 46 years old, 236 days. And then Barack Obama at 47 years old. Wow. 69 days. That kind of speaks to what you were saying, Frankie, about like 40 or 50 is the new 20.

Like, we viewed Obama as he was like 35 years old, but he became president. I think he could have talked to me into him being 39 when he took off. Five years older than Ulysses S. Grant, who was like after the Civil War was like really probably close to his dad. So we've never had a president. He was like 37. He was 42 or whatever. You got to be at least 35 to be president. Right.

So, but nobody in their 30s. No one's been in their 30s. Not even, okay. Boy, that would be, I mean, you got to be a real wonderkin to take, to be the president of the You also have to be signing up for something like this where it's like the rest of your life is going to be under insane. I mean, the majority of your life is going to be under insane scrutiny. And like, yes, you like you could be 50, 50 or whatever, but you're signing up for a lot of bullshit. If you're a 38 year old trying to become the president.

But it's already like the worst job in the world. It's the worst job in the world. But your post presidency, like that's the best part of presidencies for the, they get booked. things they get like he's going to have everyone starts liking them again. Do you remember Obama was just with the Richard Branson guy like every day on his island just like on wave runners with Michelle for

10 years afterwards? George W. is painting and everyone pretty much likes him kind of as you yeah right after Bush left and Trump I mean after Trump everyone loved Bush they're like oh Bush it's like the nicest guy in the world. Unless you unless you try to shake his hand and you put on Instagram then you are also a war criminal

someone someone someone that's right someone so Trent tweeted that yesterday and then I retweeted it of Trent like reaches hand out and someone goes wow Frankie just smiling ear to ear with the world's most famous terrorist I was just like dude you know I don't I'm just kind of just taking this picture with the president of the United States I don't know it doesn't have to get to if you took office when you're 38 then at most you're going to be 46 when you're done you got a long road as yeah as a post president you got a great run coming up as post

president a great run you just go to the president's cup on the first teacher I think we'll see a 30s president. I feel like the way the world's going now, I think we will. Just because like I feel like a lot of these politicians are younger and like things are just changing. I think we will. It's a little tough because you only get, you really only get like one shot at it because the way it works. So you'd have to be born in the right, right, right, like the right window of like 35 to 39, 40 and then you miss it. Right.

Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, I see what you're saying. I think there's got to be. There's got to be. There's going to be one man or woman who just. just completely takes the country by storm. I don't know if that's going to be 100 years. I don't know if it's going to be 200 years.

But it's got to happen where they just, there's just such a fever pitch for this person. That's what Obama did. Yeah, what Obama did. Obama went from nothing on the national scale to give in one speech at the DNC and four years later was president of United States. It's like,

that's about as fast. People were so fired up about Obama for like, oh my God. People were parading around the streets. That campaign was like, it's got to be one of the, very best campaigns ever run in any country. It was like the first one when

Facebook was at it's like peak. It was like the first time. I mean, I watched a documentary like it's the first time that they really utilize the internet. Right. Because that's what he got like $20 at a time is how he raised a lot of his money, which is that was completely different than just having a bunch of big donors even though they had that too. But I remember being in college at the time and when the election results were finalized that night that you could literally hear people like going nuts, parading and celebrating in the streets that whole night.

Like that's how fired up people were about Obama. This is how he did the whole country. He took over, not the whole country, we took over in a way from a political standpoint that, yeah, I don't, I don't know that you'll see that very much. Right, that first election against McCain was like a, was like a blood, he won easily, right?

It was when he, when McCain took Sarah Palin as his VP, he got a giant bump that first couple weeks. And then she's not talking. Sarah Palin started getting a little bit exposed and she wasn't prepared and whatever and started go back down. But there was a point where, dude, McCain got like the biggest, one of the biggest bumps ever from polling got like a six or eight point bump overnight by just picking Sarah Paywin and

things were close. But then he dusted him. And then Obama too in his second election with, uh, or yeah, election with Romney, when he got absolutely dusted in the first, uh, debate. They did three presidential debates that year. and Obama actually apologized to his team afterwards and said that he didn't do any preparation. And that's very common for a sitting president. Not anybody,

he didn't prepare like he should have. It's very common for a president to be like super cocky because for four years you've been on such a pedestal. You obviously dominate everything, every room, every discussion, whatever, that to then go into an arena, a public arena and have another grown adult like go toe to toe with you. It shocks a lot of incumbent presidents. and then Obama, the next couple debates, was absolutely phenomenal. And he won pretty going away against Mitt Romney. Speaking of McCain, Danny, you mentioned David Foster Wallace in this podcast when we had Kyle Porter on.

And I had never read any of his stuff. So when I went to Hawaii, I read one of his books, Consider the Lobster. Oh, it's all his, like articles, right? It's all his articles put in a book. And one of them is called Up Simba. And it's David Foster Wallace followed John McCain in 2000 when he was trying to become the Republican nominee against Bush. And it is one of the best articles that I've ever read.

Some of the other stuff in that book, David Foster Wallace is way too smart for me. But up Simba, the one about McCain, that one, it's so fucking interesting following a guy like John McCain on the campaign trail in 2000. If anybody is interested in any of that stuff, and I'm really not that interested in politics in that way, but that article following a candidate like that, that closely, dude, it is, it's so fucking interesting. What do you think, what do you think of considered a lobster that one? about that change your opinion of eating lobster at all?

It made me not want to eat as much lobster. Yeah. Why? Give me the elevator pitch on why I shouldn't eat lobster. All right. All right. It's about like it talks about what kind of pain centers do lobsters have. Like in the way that we cook them,

it's always you boil them alive. And it goes into a lot of the research about like the way that we don't know if the way that humans feel pain if that's the same way that animals feel pain. Obviously, it's impossible to communicate with animals about how they feel it, but it would appear the way that our lobster reacts when it goes into a pot of boiling water and you put the lid, it's grabbing the sides. It's like trying to get out. It gives off the, the vibe that it feels what's going on, but they don't know if that's necessarily true. And it kind goes through all this research about what does a lobster actually feel. And there's also the history

hurts. Yeah, definitely. They're making, they're making noise. There's also the history of lobster used to be like the lowest quality meat possible. Their bottom. It was like they, they, they, they fed it to prisoners. And there was prisoners used to, used to protest because they, they were saying, we're getting too much lobster. And then it was basically this whole marketing campaign of like,

we're going to associate lobster with Maine and with this like cute boating culture. And it went from being literally they couldn't serve it to prisoners more than a couple times a week to the ultimate delicacy. It's, you know, I will still eat lobster. But it definitely makes you think. I mean,

we saw a little bit of that when we were in New Orleans with the crawfish when they take you kind of in the back and show you where they, where they make it. where they boiled it was horrifying and it's a conveyor belt of crawfish going into a boiling pot and there's there's like the one who's on the conveyor belt trying to hold on and it drops he was holding on and then like they would just like flick it off like I mean listen if you start to peek behind the curtain of all this stuff it's not great totally but the lobster one was interesting because it goes really deep into trying to figure out whether or not the lobster actually feels

what's happening there's this assumption that it's actually okay because they don't feel pain you can drop them in boiling water because they don't feel pain but They think they actually do. Yeah. And they like, you can't, and like claw for the walls and stuff.

So that's probably, they don't do that normal. We're not doing that all the time, right? It's unfortunate. But it's also, it's like, it's the food chains. Like,

we just get to just eat them. And that's just the way the world is. You know what I mean? I'm not going to start worrying about the lobsters fucking. All right. I can't. I can't. I got too much going on in my life that we worrying about the lobsters right now.

And like, they're pain sensors. I just, you know, we won the luck of, the draw that we don't have to fucking deal with that. It's just interesting. It is interesting.

It is. David Foster Wallace said consider the lobster and Frankie said, nope. We can't. You know, we can't. We can in some aspects, I guess, but we just can't really. I mean, because like you said, it opens up a can of worms where it's like then you don't eat anything ever or you have to find things that don't have. Right.

Do plants feel things? Right. Like, if you go beyond meat, like meat is one thing. Do plants? I was, I was listened to a guy on a podcast talking about how. And then you cut it down or something? He was saying that how plants actually aren't good for you because they, they are trying to protect themselves and they give off toxins that make it unhealthy to eat.

I don't know if it's sure or not, it might be propaganda. But he's saying, like even eating plants isn't good. And they don't want to be eating. All this shit always changes. Like you watch Good Morning. Oh, always does. Mom needs to watch Good Morning. Regis and Kelly.

And she'd be like, Regis Philbin said that you can't have wine anymore. And then the next day, they're like one glass of wine a day, like keeps the heart doctor away. What the fuck's going on? And then I was talking to a professional athlete the other day because I was like, dude, I'm actually eating a lot healthy in 2023. I'm doing this. And like, because I try and go to the guys. I said professional athlete because these guys are the healthiest people in the world. And he's saying that like he got talked off like, he got talked off like brown rice because like everyone thinks brown rice is good.

But if you like take a deeper look into it's actually worse than white rice. And now he's like switch back to white rice, which is like I thought common like practice would be you go away from white rice. And then I'm like, I'm eating kinawise. like, oh, it's really hard to digest. It actually makes you, like, gain more weight because the more keen why you eat, the more work that it does to digest it and it's not working on, like, the lean muscle fats. I'm just like, and then like Peloton, you actually, it's just like, I don't know.

You're like, you need more lean muscle to fat to actually lose weight. So like the more you burn it off, the less you, you, you, you are the only proper diet. The only, the only proper diet is eating nothing. You can't even. Even that's bad because like, like, you'll just kind of eat what like your body. You just kind of eat what, like, your body likes and is mostly used to and just don't overdo it, right? Like, it's just like at some level that's what makes you happy and like comfortable. The common thing that I'm finding is you got to crush fruit.

And that's what I always do anyway, which is actually good. But it's funny about brown rice because the most, the most classic college kid, like, I'm going to start eating healthy is getting brown rice instead of white rice and going for wheat bread. We're bread instead of white bread. Those two are like Mount Rushmore, I'm getting healthy. We were talking about earlier with like the, at what point. Does something feel pain? It becomes like a, is a plant? Like, can you just be mean to a plant?

Is that like mean versus, and I think about that with like ants all the time. Like, you'll just step on an ant. But like, for fun. Is that just because the ant is just smaller than like a koala bear that you don't, you wouldn't just go squash a koala bear.

Like that'd be really fucked up. So like, why do you just do it to an ant? Yeah. Every time we see something crawling in your house, you just go up and you just pick it with a, you just squish it with a fucking paper towel. Like parents and it took for,

it's probably worked. hard to get to that point. He was just trying to bring like the animal ever. Fucking to the to the mound or the hill and like you just killed it instantly. And it's like we don't care about that. But like I said, you just, you just went and like squash somebody's dog.

That'd be the most fucked up thing of all time. So it's like, that's jail time. That's jail time. Right. Yeah. It should be. But I just don't understand that difference.

I think it is really interesting to think about. I think like dogs have more of like feelings. I mean, Trent doesn't think so. But. he stopped feeding him. they won't. but yeah would you ever would you ever would you ever carry ants up a couple flights of stairs no my i'd be all over my building would hate me if i did that people who live here

be like why is that guy carrying a bunch of ants upstairs you got to keep them out it is interesting it's not something like like again you you think about the lobstre you think about and you start thinking about other meat it's if nothing else it's an interesting thought but i'm probably not going to change much about my life you're going to have a lot of the role and with that it's so good i think we're pretty much done here we're not going to change after all that cover We're not going to change anything about our lives. We just can't become the golf podcast that thinks plants have feelings. You know what I mean?

It's at the end of the day, I'm not going to do that. Interesting thought. It's just a thought. It is. It is. Nothing, not everything that you say is everything you believe. We're big thinkers. All right.

We'll be back on Thursday. Remember, check out the Barcelona Sportsbook app for our bet with four play. It's going to be under exclusives. You go in there. We're going to have the make the cut bet. It's going to be very fun. We've got two videos this week. We've got on,

Tonight, what do we have coming out today? Stealth 2. Stealth 2, stealth 2, which you saw Kyle Morcao using this last week. Stealth 2 is out. We get the whole deal. Taylor May unveils it in front of us. They tell us about what's different about it, what's new about it, what they're so excited about with it, and the technology and the advancements and what we can expect from it.

And then we hit it. It's great. So you get to watch that. And then Thursday, we have Payne's Valley, which Payne's Valley, the match that they did a couple years ago with Tiger, Justin Rose. Justin Thomas and Rory Macquaroy. That course popped off. It's got the 19th hole that's like the Iowan green in the Ozarks. One of the cooler golf courses,

Tiger Woods designed that we've ever seen. So you're not going to want to miss that video. So again, on our YouTube page, make sure you're prepared Tuesday night, Thursday night big videos coming out. Yeah, the Thursday night video is fantastic.

I mean, we were doing the interviews with Brendan, Brendan the other day and I was watching some footage of it. It's insane how good it looks. It's by far one of my favorite courses I've ever played. I think I'm going to put in my top three, no doubt about it. When you talk about just having fun at a golf course, if I had to play one course before I died and they're like,

you just want to have the most fun, like you want to shoot a really good score and you want to like see really cool scenery and you want to have fun. I think Paines Valley would be right up there. It'd be like pebble and Paines Valley for me where it's like, where am I going to have the most fun? I agree with that. It's beautiful.

It's in pristine condition. It's in a part of the country. I think most people would, would not visit or would not really check out, would be blown away by with the elevation changes and the, and the rockiness and the, of the Ozarks, it's really cool.

And then they built the course within that. It does have, it's waterfalls. It's Tiger Woods design, but it's also got the white, like, clean bunkers that are cut into the fairways. So it's just,

it's awesome. So anyways, make sure you're subscribed on YouTube, please. And then please listen on Thursday when we're back. Have a great week. Hit it hard. Hit it hard.

Hit it hard. Thank you.
