Getting into it. It's my mom's birthday. Remind me tomorrow in the future to wish her happy birthday. Future Trent will be reminded that Mama Trent, happy birthday. Yep. Because I'll forget. That's exciting. No, you won't.

No, you're right, I won't. It's impossible. But I might, so remind me, please. Okay, we'll try to remind you. Okay. December 11th, we got some golf to talk about it. It is getting into the dog days. I got to be honest.

We did have our man, our boy, Greg Norman, the shock. The shock. We're going to do that again? Wallaby? I mean, I got... The wallaby got eaten by the shock. But, I mean, I think people said that it was kind of spot out. No, I think that when you were sounding it all out in a bigger,

larger Australian sentence, it did. Yeah. But for a while, I think we came to the conclusion that saying shark, just in an Australian accent, can sound like many different things. You have to add the wallaby. Speaking of Australians, that jacked kangaroo died today. Oh, yeah. RIP, I can't think of the name right now.

What that guy's name? Fuck. I didn't kangaroo Jack. I'll tell you that. I believe it starts with an R. I'm going to look it up right now because it's on. Robin. No, I just made that up.

Don't even. What is that guy? What is the kangaroo? I've been seeing him everywhere. Dude, he is jacked. Well, he was. He's got to be... He's dead now.

The strongest... Pound for pound, he has to be... Had to have been the strongest... The picture that originally went viral was him just smashing a tin can in half in his arms and his veins were popping out of his... His biceps. For anyone that doesn't know what the fuck we're talking about, there's this jacked kangaroo that was like... Roger. You know what's really funny.

As I said, he's not kangaroo jacked. But that actually would have been the perfect fucking name for this guy because he was jacked. Well, I do like... Cangaroo. Roger the Ripped. It should have been kangaroo jacked. Oh, yeah. Cangaroo jacked.

Although I think his name was, he probably had his name before he became famous. Anyway, this kangaroo would like, just like, what, mozy or hop around. Cangaroos do hop around. They hop around Australia, and he was just fucking ripped.

I mean, I'm really going to picture right now. These guys, I'm unbelievably. Ripped. That's a bit everywhere. And kangaroos, too, are already known for just hop around.

How does a kangaroo get that ripped? That's my question. Is he doing pull-ups in the forest or something? I don't know. Like, why doesn't every kangaroo look like that? It's almost like someone had this kangaroo in a lab, and then accidentally got out and released, and then it was in the wild, and it's like, oh, shit,

there's a really jacked kangaroo. Some people were just naturally jacked, and other people were naturally, like, not. I suppose. There was just one kangaroo that's jacked. That seems peculiar. But what? Peculiar?

Peculiar. I can't say that word. Peculiar. Peculiar. You're still not doing it, right? Really? What's wrong with this show? I couldn't know what he pronounced anything.

I really put myself in a bind here because I knew I couldn't say that word. Peculiar. I took a risk and it didn't pay off, Jake. And you kind of started to do it. You don't want to say words? Anyways, we had the shark shootout. That's pretty much the only thing to be excited about right now. There are a couple storylines we're going to get to a couple web.com storylines, which were great.

Big weekends for the boys. We're going to talk about the golf club. two, the video game, because Frankie and I, in his roommate, and Lurch, he played on Friday, and Frankie saw it, and I stink at this game. It was a scene. I can't play a game. I saw some stories of that, and people, you guys were freaking out

about something. It got pretty intense. We were doing two. It was only one team freaking out. I was kind of just sitting back, like, just winning. Well, yeah, I mean, your roommate came alive out of nowhere. He did. Which was huge. Oh, yeah, we played matchback. We'll get into it. It was fun. So we're playing the golf club, too.

Which, for anybody does it know, it was the newest golf video. Is that what it's called? Is it two? There was a golf club before this? Maybe it's the guy No,

there was a new one. It's like the second edition, right? There was one. I think it's the golf club 2019. Right, right. But I didn't even know there was a second game

but this was the first one ever. There might be a whole other one called the golf club too and this is the third one or something. It's the golf club, I believe, 2019. It's got PGA tour rights. I don't really know what that means

because I just play Matt. We just always log in and just play. Yeah, I mean, I messed around with it once. Like I went through. It was like pretty impossible to figure out what the hell is going on, but they start you like in the web.com tour or something like that. Classic, you know, career trajectory, all that. And the beauty of it is that the thing that sucked about Rory, the Rory game,

is they have like eight golf courses. That's it. And pretty much every course was a course that they'd already had in previous Tiger games. And what sucks is when you really, when any tournament pops up or on the tour or when you're going on a certain trip and you want to play a certain course, so you get to play at the video game, that was the beautiful. of all of the prior Tiger games was how many courses they had. Rory had like none.

This game has a create a golf course feature. And naturally, because people were just unbelievably talented, a bunch of psychos out there have built golf courses that are identical. There's no better idea for even professional sports leagues or a video game like this to just put it in the hands of the consumer. The consumer will make it so much better than even the developer of the video game. There's some golf courses on this game. that are so good that I'm actually woke on what's going on in this game.

Let's hear it. Well, so Riggs, so we, we, Riggs came over. He texted me, he's like, what are you doing tonight? I said, well, I'm playing some golf. And I was real vague about that. It was like 10 o'clock at night. I said, I'm playing some golf right now. I just cracked open a beer.

Very vague. I was super vague. You responded, where are you playing golf? Ricks, that was the right response. Sitting on my couch. Yeah, I'm sitting on my couch playing some golf. And, yeah, I said, playing the golf club. buddies, you know, we're not doing anything.

A couple of other friends were out. One of my friends was in Philly's on his way to the Army Navy game, which we'll also get into later in the show. And I'm like, yeah, we're just hanging and come by. So him and his buddy, Lurch, came in like a pack of hurricanes. They must have already had a couple, you guys had a couple cold ones coming in. We had some serious cocktail. We had a couple pictures.

Ran into a stoolie. Yeah. Lurch and I were just going to do one beer after work beer by his office. So I went over there. I was like, yeah, I'll meet you there because, you know, I usually have him quality up to the office. I was like, no, I'm going to do your cell. I'll come down there.

We buzz in as one bar to get like, we're like, let's do one beer, vibe isn't that great, whatever. And then right away, there's Stoley comes over with a full pitcher. Yeah, he's like, hey man, picture on me. If I can just get like a couple minutes of your time to just shoot the shit. I was like, sure, no problem. I mean, we must have drank three pictures. So by that time next thing you know, I mean, it's fucking 10 o'clock.

So they come into this place, the pack of hurricanes. And we already had, so you can edit golfers, right? So we had it all set up. We made a rigs. We made a lurch. we made myself, we made my buddy Rob we're like,

we're ready to go and I mean, God damn did we make these guys look good. Yeah? They look, we actually should have taken a picture of it

because it's kind of crazy how perfect everyone looked and we gave like, we gave rigs like his quarter zip. We gave him a quarter zip vest we couldn't get the quarter zip long sleeve. I had like my hat on. Lurch just looked like Lurch

like he's like, why am I in the video game? When I look at Lurch you just think like you can make him into a video game character. So he was like, he's just proportionally that way. It was like a big body

with like kind of like a tan regular like white guy. guy's face. Like, like, like, this guy can, this guy played sports growing up, but he's also like real big,

right? That's lurch. It was like preset number three. You didn't have to change anything. He literally is like preset number three. Yeah, and everyone always makes fun of me that I look like the generic character before you add anything on,

you know, like the guy. You damn. I don't know people. But that's true. The weed, don't you? The weed,

like the weed character before you add anything. You're a weed bowler for sure. He is like the nine-year-old wee bowler. Someone, someone worded it correct, like really funny. And it was super mean. They're like, they did everything.

Like, you look like the character that comes up on this specific game before you get any coins to make them look like into a real person. There's nothing worse than when somebody burns you on the internet and it makes you laugh. Like, it's just perfect. Like, when that person told me I have an iPhone 10 on my head, like, I was like, shit. They call it, see? See what I mean? Or they call them, they call them, they call them cold a sacks on my head. Oh, man.

Sorry. I didn't mean an interrupt your story. I was cackled. I mean, the iPhone 10 is hilarious. Wow. That's really good. See what I mean? When it's that good, you're like, damn it, I wish that wasn't so funny.

The one friend was talking about was that good. I wish I knew the game while after you remember all the details. But you're right. It was five. Anyway, so we're playing this game, and I said, like what Riggs just alluded to, you can pick any goddamn golf course in this game. So why don't we go play Augusta? Trent, when I tell you, this is where I got woke,

when I tell you that someone made Augusta so perfectly to the point where every single piece of grass and tree and cobblestone like a stone, any sort of bridge, any sort of outhouse in the corners, like all these little houses, it's all built.

Like, even like the way the holes would connect to each other like in their perfect spots around. Yeah, like these drone-like flyovers and it looked like a gustave. And the whole, it was just,

I mean, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it looks more like Augusta. What I said,

what I'm, what I'm, what, when I say I'm woke on this, I mean like, I think that the golf club, and I could be 100% in Rome, but I think the golf club didn't have the rights to like make Augusta and someone just like on the development team just like made a gust down there, like their super computers, right? Like when you make golf, and they just like submitted it as a user review.

Like there's no fucking way. Dude, I tried to make a golf course on this game because we were so, we were so perplexed as to how this did it. And it takes you hours to make one hole. And you have no idea what you're doing. I can't even imagine that process. Every single piece of grass can go different. ways, right? You can, like, make the wind hit the certain holes, certain ways on certain days.

You can make the hills go certain ways. So, like, when the, when you're hitting like an approach shot, it'll funnel in. Dude, it's crazy. So to be able to make it the way a gust is, it's impossible. It's impossible with a controller in your head. It's impossible. And that means developing, like, some of the developers where they're like, hey, let's get people talking. They have a gust in this game. They have a gusty. They have moved one bush so they can't say it's the same thing. Correct. And they'll upload it by like user Johnny or whatever and that's it. John 13. Like I have them. And this thing is like. like, so each golf course can get rated by the users.

And like some of them have like two, like Bethpage Black. It's shitty. It's like someone tried to make it. It's got like one review and it's like a zero star. And I tried to play it. It's like unplayable. This one has 15,000 reviews all five stars. It's like, dude.

I mean, it's August. Do they call it Augusta or was it like Augusto? Yeah, it's like Augusta, C, whatever. You just name it whatever you are. Okay. But, yeah, so we played it. And I mean, it was a scene, dude. Lurch and Riggs, I mean, I thought that they, you know, they played it before,

which I think you guys have. Yep. And it just didn't show. Like I think... We sucked. Yeah. And we, two competitive guys, Yeah.

Came in looking to like make a statement. On the cab right there, we're all fired up. We're like, all right. This game, like, look, we know, like, this game, it's not Tiger, right? You don't win by going 13 under in this game. Like, stay calm. Stay poised. Like, you know, we can hit some good recovery shots.

You're going to hit some bad ones. You need to be ready for that. We were like, we had a game plan. We were ready to go. And we just sucked. Just didn't work. We just not great at the game. game. No, it was, it was a bloodbath at some points.

I think I lost like $45. Yeah, it was a stupid game. Playing video games. Which is like how much the game costs. Right. So we complain about this game a lot where we say like it's not easy and there's all these different like modes and stuff, which there are. I've kind of like realized that as I've played more. Well, we've only played like three or four times, but like the more you play, the more you realize that there's different settings, right? You can pick, when you're picking your guy, you can pick if you're going to be the beginner clubs, pro clubs or expert

clubs. Beginning clubs is literally Tiger Woods. It's the same thing. You can't miss a shot. That's how I like to play. You can't miss it. Like you can't spin still. You can't like you can't do all the things that made Tiger Woods like super easy and super like arcady. But it's still like you go straight back.

You go straight forward. It's always going to go forward. You're going to make like 200 probably. My buddy by accident when we played for the first time in my room, I was shooting 18 over. He was on beginner clubs. He fucking went like seven under and he beat me by 85 strokes. So I didn't know what was going on. So we finally figured that out.

So we put it on pro clubs, which is. A little bit tougher. You got to, if you hit it just a little bit left, you just shank it. See, I can't do that. If I'm going to sit down and play a video game, I don't want to be like super stressed out about it. Right. I want to go, I want to go 13 under. That's like when I used to play Tiger Woods.

That was my favorite game. This guy, Alex, shout out to this guy, Alex, who emailed us? He goes, just bought the golf club to our Auntie from Xbox and was worried it would be too hard because of your podcast. You idiots could not be more wrong. The swing stick is the exact same as the old Tiger Woods games. Do you all have the shakes? Tell your listeners, it's a great game. This guy clearly put it on beginner.

Yeah. It's done beginner. Because it's just, dude, like, even... Dude, the chipping and the putting. So, like, you could be on a fucking... You could be on, you know, a little hill where you have a seven-foot chip to just get onto the green. And you would think that, like, after playing Tiger Woods all these years and all this stuff, like... It just takes a little flick of the thumb.

Flick of the wrist. Little flick of the wrist. I don't know if you were going to get that. Do you get that? What is going on? It's like an Arab... It's a song. It's a rap song.

I've seen a... It's a rap song. Yeah. I've seen a... Flick of the wrist? I've seen a... Barstle tweeted out this weekend the flick of the wrist when Trump did his Army Navy coin flip. No, I've seen a...

A remake where a guy, you know, like, the dance or they're like... Yeah. I mean, nobody else can see that, but... Look at the flicker there is. Yeah. Yeah, I've seen that. That's a famous YouTube video. So you're right?

Yeah, yeah. Anyway, so you would think it's a little quick thumb... A little thumb thing, right? Yes. But you do it, and like, you only go... 20% up, it goes 2 inches. It always goes 3 inches, 5 inches. It doesn't go 7 feet.

So you have to look at all these numbers and you have to basically analyze like your fucking Bryson D. Chambal how to hit a golf ball. Shout out to my boy, Bryson. Shout out to my picture out this week on Instagram. Yeah, no, he's coming after you a little bit. He, oh, he buried you again last week to have had a podcast since then.

Oh, yeah. And he just tagged you on the golf. Oh, fuck. This is like a new segment. It's like, how did Bryson roast? How is this week? That one was... That was really mean.

That was next level because he's literally. just scroll through Instagram saw something and then laughed it was like that idiot frankie yeah golf dot com or some other like instagram that has all this golf stuff on said like tag a buddy who's always blading his wedges and it was a lefty blade hitting it was just like it was a lefty wedge just hitting the middle of a golf ball and it just stopped right on it so you could clearly tell that ball's going like 85 yards over the green and and he just tagged me he just wrote frankie birelli and everyone started like going hold i was just getting a million messages like you're You're dead. You're dead. I'm like, what's going on?

Because if you're verified and you have as many followers, Bryson, that just goes right to the top. And everybody can see it when I scroll. Someone messaged me saying that they were, because where were they when he did it? The shark shootout? The shark shoot out. Yeah. So that was in Florida. Florida or the Bahamas is one of them. So someone said, yeah, I'm here for this event. And I saw Bryson in the elevator.

This was like an hour after he buried me. And he's like, hey, man, I love the way you buried Frankie. And finally he just like smirked. He's like, I love those guys. Like, it's just like, love Barry him. Just like he was giddy, like in the elevator. I love those guys. Love that shit.

It's like a big brother, little brother relationship. He just, you know, puts in your place every once in a while. Oh, man. Yes. It's just, when I saw it, because I first saw you tweet it out. And I mean, I had to go, I did the whole verification day. I had to go on Instagram, find this post. Yeah.

See if it was really real. And then laugh out loud. It was real. It was real. It was real. It's tough. It's a very tough game. I don't want to say, what was like,

What was the best score of the four of us? Do you know? Do you remember? So we played four ball. So at times when a hole was over, it just, it was just over, right? But I'd say me and my buddy were probably like three over, four over. You guys were probably like seven over, eight over. Yeah.

Which is tough, dude, when you're playing four ball. You should be fucking around. Yeah. You should be underpaw. That game sounds. I would agree with that. That game sounds so hard. It's hard.

Yeah. And this is literally in a video game. Like, that's where real estate if it was stroke play, like I probably would have been 15. Yeah. There's these moments where you think you're going to, like, they thought they were going to have a comeback, and, like,

Riggs would be eight feet away with a sliding putt, and he just blows it by 85 feet. He's chipping. And now he's chipping. He goes from an eight-foot putt to just chipping. That's also. Riggs just kept saying, that's Augusta. That's funny.

I don't know that's like, well. Lurch was ready to kill him. It's a major championship course. There's one time where he's like, he think I'm playing it off break here. I was like, I think you have played a little more than that. He's like, no, I think this is right. And he hit it, and he just took this hill

the hole and rolled like, well, I mean, it's Augusta. That's not what you want to hear. It's not an Augustus. It's just a video game. Yeah.

That's just not what you want to hear. It's just a real place. These are fake hills that some asshole made in his fucking basement. So it was a bit of a scene. I tried to play last night at my

apartment. I tried to play spy bass and I was like six over through four holes. I just turned it off. It was impossible. I mean, it's just it's impossible.

So I need to I do need to figure out the settings. I love that it's very realistic and that it's like a grind. Dude, when you hit it into the bunker, you see the little path that takes through the bunker. Ooh, that's a nice touch. When you hit a shot, like a lot high lofted shot on the green, you see the fucking ballmark on the green. That's very nice. It's crazy realistic.

It's insanely realistic. The way that it takes the hills and like it doesn't have the gimmicky stuff that a lot of the Tiger games had where like if it's a millimeter into the fringe, it just stops rolling. Yeah. Yeah. It does bounce and trundle around. and all that, which is great. It makes it very realistic. So the game's super realistic. It is very frustrated when it's...

Because I, like mine, I just go too fast, it says. Yeah. So my path is straight, and my guy just duck hooks it back. Yeah, it computes your back swing and your follow-through and making sure that you're not hesitating at any point, right? So, like, if you have... Let's say you really concentrate, look down your control and you go straight back and straightforward. You're going to hit it 18 yards because it's saying that you're swinging super slow.

I see. So you have to go straight back, straight forward with a... fluid swing and then it goes straight. Any other variation, it's left, right, and all over the place. So here's my only two real shot options that I have, Trentetti. I either try to go full speed and hit like a normal shot, and I

duck hook it left because my transition's too quick. Or my other move is in order to not go too quick, I go really slow, and my driver goes like 175. I think that's what you got to do. It's like an old man golf. You're playing like an old man. Literally. And Ben's like, just play your old man golf, you can make some

bars doing this. But then I'm like, I can't make a single person. Honestly, I didn't even raise the ball in the air. We talk about how, we've gone back and forth on this game, but like there was, there's some shots in it. Like when my buddy, we were only like two up at one point. They came all the way back because we were just, because we were arguing for fucking ever. And like, and then all of a sudden I'm arguing with them and we're talking about the game.

And then they just kept winning holes. I'm like, what? My friend like slap me. He's like, pay attention. You're not like, you are losing the match. So then we finally on like, on the 15th hole. He finally hit this shot that drew in. Remember the one that almost went in on the part three?

He almost hit a fucking hole in one. And that's when we were like, this game's awesome. Because you can, when you hit a good shot, it feels so good. That sounds like real golf. We were sweeping. We were like, let's go. You hit up all this bullshit in between and we finally get a good one. I honestly would recommend this game to someone.

So I think it was on 16. He almost got a whole one off. 15, he made that huge put for par. Remember that? He hit over the green right. Yeah. And we just played it safe. I made like, like, Ian Lurch made like an easy par.

Yeah. Like, we're good. Fucking his boys over the green chips it to like 15p. He's got a slider. Keep in mind, we're at Augusta. Yeah. Yep. Which we remind me.

Fugge of the back of the cup. Goes in. Like, literally nobody, every 15 footer all day was like automatic free. Yeah. Like there's no way he can keep that on green. Fucking candid. It's so devastating. Now through December 25th, the 23 and Me DNA kits are on sale.

I have a question for you now with, I was thinking about this over the weekend. When, when, when, You look at Tiger Woods's, like, how he's back with all, you know, his image is getting repaired and all this stuff. Do you think in the future there will be a new Tiger Woods game? Do you think EA says, like, you think EA or some other company just goes, you know what, this fucking guy is back? Tiger Woods, he's getting heroes again. Tiger Woods getting his game back might be a, like, a sign that he's more back than winning another major. Well, I said that one of the worst parts of his demise and his downfall was us not getting the advancement of the. PGA, Tiger Woods, EA games.

You know how good, like, Madden, all the graphics and all that shit has gotten? Imagine how amazing Tiger Woods would have gotten. Isn't it crazy? They never said anything to us. They just stopped making the game. They just stopped making. Like, they did the Rory one. They marketed it and all that.

And then they just, like, they just abandoned us. Like, they just stopped me. Yeah, we had to, like, find out from, like, other outlets, like, IGN.com. One of these, like, video game things were like, we just got noticed that EA has forfeited the rights to all PGA tour. It's like, what? They just, like, stopped. They just closed up shop.

I felt like it was, like, a secret society. People were sliving me a note on the subway without like looking at me. Yeah, like, there's another game. Not only that... It's called. They're called. Not only that they were stopped making them that they like, they just like didn't re-up like any of the licensing stuff. Like that's just, it's almost like when John Tavares wasn't going to be an Islander, he just waited for the deadline to go and we all should figure it out.

Yeah. It's like, that's what EA did. They just like didn't re-up. It's exactly. I don't think there'll be another game. Really. It would be really, really awesome. I honestly think they might.

I think they will. But I think they have to fire up a whole new team and everything. They have that shit, dude. I think it's built up. You don't think the EA guy's sitting at home right now waiting for that call. He gets a call. It's like, we're back. It's like he's fucking just firing up that computer again.

Let's go get the spin back. That's fucking go. Even if they did it before he wins his next major, if they did like the tour championship, I can see the cover of him just with his arms in the air. Now, let's agree on this. If he does come back with a video game, it has to be like EA, like the same type of game. He cannot come back with no bullshit. Like, I don't want to see like a,

Nintendo, Arcady, Tiger Woods with like the big heads. Like, I don't want a fake golf game. No. He has to come back with like the most realistic golf game of all time. Yes, but still with the tiger thing. Yes. Your ball will be hooking into the left side of the green. You spin it hard right and it like goes 40 feet across the green.

It goes in the whole. I don't want him making. How fun is that? That's my game. And then the other guys, like you guys you're playing it against her yellow and that's just not realistic. That's my game. That was my version.

And you just have the spin going forward. You just hit it on to the green from every T-box. Yeah. Or when you, the worst is when your ball is, the air and you start hammer on the spin button. Then you realize that the original shot was actually going to be really good. So if you spin it forward, it spins off the green forward. You spin it backward.

It sucks off the green back. We used to play 2007 so much that there was a tiny glitch when you hit it from the fairway or on a par three where you have the tiniest glitch. It would tell you that it was going in right away so you wouldn't touch the spin. It would hit you with that. It would be the heart pounding view. Well, it would be that, but it would also go to. But there would also be the small thing where it would double hit almost.

And everybody would like, don't touch it, don't touch it. You're right. And it would go right in and it was the best feeling ever. The worst feeling is when you would already hit the spin. And it's giving you the camera and you're like, how can I judge it? And it just sneaks by. You're right. I always felt like I was able to offset the spin like you were saying.

Like I always felt like I just had it enough. Like I was like, oh, I went back by I'm going to go. I'm going to do one tap forward. My problem is I always began by just hammer it. Yeah. You hit it seven or eight times real quick. Yeah. Then it's just you, it's like it's reached a point from which it can't return.

You're going in one direction no matter where, if you like it or not. Yeah. And you almost have to just hope it hits the hole on the way by when you spin it backwards. When you're fucking 30 feet off the green. What a great. I played so much. I used to get sick up where I'd play online and turn spin off. And I used to love like, because I used to just love the challenge.

Right? Because you had to. Because otherwise it's just I want to burn it every single. Correct. And maybe makes it a couple of eagles. So yeah, I think we're in agreement that we would like to see it back, obviously. But I, I just don't want. I could see a future where he, where Tiger, like, makes a deal with, like,

Nintendo. and they come back with this like kid-friendly game for like the Nintendo Nintendo Switch. No, I don't want that like totally different because EA is just like done like you were saying. I want him to be back on EA and being like, Roar, you drop the ball on this. I'm picking him back up. Oh, it'd be amazing. Imagine how much better that game is.

Dude, imagine they did a video game. So you know how each time they do it. It's like surrounding like an event or something. So once he came out with the master's edition, imagine they came out with the match edition and like the main part of the game was like the Tiger versus Phil match. Yeah, just Phil was never in those games. Correct. What do you have on your holiday to do?

What do you take from that? Just a lot of people are kind of chiming that. Like, oh, yeah, they presented it as this. You know, Phil's just getting into a social media. He loves to go to this fan. But it was all for the match.

It wasn't posted a single tweet in it. three weeks. I mean, that's what it is. They just tried to market the match, and he's like, I'm not doing the same. When the next one comes up, he's just going to be tweeting off a storm again.

Stark fired off. Yeah, I'm back. I will say this. It's been like the offseason since then. I mean, he hasn't really played in anything. So, you know. But it is. People, the golf world.

But in order to care about this, you have to have been duped a little bit in the first place. For sure. When in reality, like, yeah, man, we know he's on trip, but a small party who does believe that. And there was, that tidbit where when I met Phil

he was like, Riggs, you're the guy that I got into it with on Twitter. So now I'm a little bit, my wires across. I'm a little bit like, wait, how did you know that if you're not on Twitter? So now should be the time when Phil is tweeting. Like, when he goes, when he's golfing, and he goes to the tournaments, like we kind of know what that's like.

I want to know what Phil is doing in the offseason right now. Like, that's far more interesting to me than him being at a tournament. Imagine Phil, like Christmas shopping? Yeah, that's what I mean. Being an ultra dad, drinking eggnog. Try to wrap a present. Yeah. I think Tiger Woods has ever gone to a mall?

Yeah, not a long time. Well, yeah, when he was like a teenager and shit, right? Although there might be... I think adult Tiger Woods has ever gone to a mall and bought a physical item of anything. Just getting Sabaro. That's what used to always be at the mall, our malls. Like, you ever think he's...

And Spencer gets off. He's like an American Eagle and bought jeans. No. He's so weird that I almost want to say yes. That he just has wandered in one day. Can you imagine me that cashier? It's like that's going to be 37. And you just look up.

It was just like Tiger Woods. Well, no, he had some, like, disguise. Remember when he went to watch Lindsey Vonski and he wore the skull. He had no tooth? Yeah. He had the skull thing on that he took it down and he just had no tooth out or something. Yeah, he had the skull thing on that he took it down and he just had no tooth. That was so weird.

What weird guy? Tiger is so weird. Yeah, I mean, that was his disguise. By the way, I'm giving him the bad for the death. He's walking into something like American Eagle. He's probably walking into like the weirdest stores with those baggy jeans and all those pockets. He said American Eagle is. I don't know where you eat that.

Where's your ring going there? Well, I wear American Eagle jeans. They have those. Flex fit. You know what I'm talking about. Yeah, I know. The 360 flex.

Tiger Woods. There's no better gene. I don't think Tiger Woods wears him. He only wears, we know, we've said it too. Like he doesn't know how to dress off the golf course. He only wears Nike like mesh shorts,

tucked into like a direction. I can see Tiger wandered into a hot topic. Like I'll take something in here. Something in here I'll take. Some like military store. Yeah. Like a surplus store in the basement of the mall. That's where Tiger gets his jeans.

Trying to feel normal for a day. What are the normals buy? He's just in there looking around. that'd be nice i don't think it's i don't think it's likely um so phil hasn't tweeted since then you know that's interesting i did not realize that yeah people are not uh people are not crazy about that anyways oh frankie army navy how was that it was awesome uh which is like obvious right i mean it's like the coolest game so it was the bucket list uh for the fact that i'm won for the theatrics right the actual game i couldn't care less about i'm not an army or navy guy

i'm american guy whoever wants to win wants to win i'm probably more towards a navy side because my girlfriend's dad was in the Navy and he's just like always rep a Navy around the house and stuff wearing Navy stuff so probably Navy but the theatrics we were on the field we did a show before that we did our show the college football show the crowd was fucking insane

huge crap we did it at this like biggest crowd you guys have yeah because we kind of partnered up with these guys the tailgate for troops so they set up this entire tailgate for all these troops good thing to partner out with and anyone going in this tailgate can just like eat and drink for free and all everyone just donate It's like their food and their drinks for all these veterans to get in.

And like they just happened to just stay for our show. And it was a sea of people. An absolute sea of people was awesome. Going in, we got Khan, Captain Kans, helped us get in. Our guy Matt Resnick's brother, like works for like the AD of Army. Oh, yeah. Oh, I did know that. I went to the Army Navy two years ago and he was the same guy.

He's like walking us around wherever you wanted to go. Dude. And the fact that like Trump was there and the president was there, I got such like a politics boner walking through the back doors of Army Navy. Right. We got like the Secret Service. Guys who like you wouldn't even think. with the secret service or secret service guys were walking around like santa hats and chaps is like

that's a secret service like that guy was wearing like a santa hat i'm like that guy's strapped right now he's like oh he's got walking around with chaps is so fun because he can pick stuff out chaps was picking out the snipers inside the game that's awesome he's like look up at that catwalk look to the right and he just like he was telling casey this and case he's like yeah just looked at the right there was a guy just like on top of the stadium looking over everyone with the sniper it was insane maybe i need to get a little better well chaps is like chaps is like looking around chaps got the eye nothing gets the juices has flown quite like a flyover either. But dude, this is what it's so crazy.

Like, this is why I got that boner. It's because, you know, you talk about that big old boner, bud. Tell us about that boner. I had no joke. I was walking into this stadium. I was rock hard. I was looking up at this guy and Air Force One was like going over us and everyone's like

that's Air Force One. I'm like, holy shit. Then we're walking in. The Secret Service is like going through us. I'm like, what the fuck? Dude, we were walking through some hallways and everyone's like the president at any moment because of people walking right by. I'm like, you can like, you can like,

or dislike the president is a very like fucking, you know, he's a polarizing controversial guy but he's like to me he's like the president of my entire life and I just think like it's electric to be around that I don't think I've ever seen a president either no everyone who says they meet or around the president feels like he's like the room changes and that they're like eight feet tall correct yeah that's why they say the old office is like the most intimidating business setting on the planet yes you walk in there and everything you came prepared with is out the window and you're just like yeah you're right you're the president great point and he was in a setting that like everyone loves him Military loves him. He's so pro- So, like, so we're on the field.

The flyovers are happening. Army and Navy were just, the flyovers, they're just dropping from the sky to the point where we were screaming, like, pull up in parachute. Dude, they would just drop for like 100 seconds. They just like these bodies were just dropping out of the air. And then they hit their parachute and then they perfectly land on the 50-yard line, every single one of them, eight people, eight parachuters, come on perfectly flamed on the 50-yard line. Then the president comes out. He does his flip.

It's electric. We're all on the field for this. We're seeing it happen in front of us. Then, like, the crowd's going crazy. They're doing, like, the, I believe that we will win. Then the Navy's going. It was nuts, dude. I fucking loved every second of it until the actual gameplay happened.

And then it was just like, it was okay. That was such a shrug. That is, yeah. Like, once the game's going on. I didn't think, because I've always watched a game all the time, I didn't think about what it would be like being around the president. That's very interesting. So we were originally on the other side of him.

Then we walked, we were on the Navy side. And they actually, like, someone told us to move because Captain Kahn, who's an army guy, played for Army. He was like a back quarterback, was asked to move to the other side because he was screaming so much on the Navy side. They were like, can you please go to your team section? So we went on the other side. And then I looked behind me and Trump was just in the crowd, just watching the game. You were just in the crowd.

Your Santa picture was great. Yeah, so we saw him just, he was kissing baby, shaking hands. He took a hand of Santa Claus, which was awesome. And we were all trying to zoom in and take pictures. There's some horrible pictures of myself because you have to zoom in so much. I try to take a picture with Trump, but he's 85 people behind me. So I get to zoom in. So there's just my eye.

and then you see a blurry picture of Trump. That's funny. That's actually funny. My dad, I'm like, I'm with the president. Met Trump. Yeah, that counts. Yeah, yeah. But it was fun, man.

I mean, Army Navy's definitely, it's a bucket list for all those things, right? Like, when are you ever going to see that shit? Yeah, that's true. You see these fucking helicopters flying just over the stadium. It's crazy. And then Trent, Daddy, you are in a fight with, uh, fix your wires. Oh, this kind of triggered me.

Oh, this did trigger Frankie. So I took a picture last night. In my apartment, in my living room, I have two TVs set up. You know, a lot of people, no big deal. I didn't think that was a flex, but people were like, are you trying to flex? And I was just like, no, I just want to show that. I'm surprised how many people responded to you with more screens than you have. They have like four or five screens.

It's the same. I will say TVs are crazy cheap these days. That was my point. I put in my blog today where it's like, yeah, it looks like I have a baller setup, but we got that second TV for $200. And it doesn't matter. It has shit sound quality, but it's usually on mute anyway because it's the second. It's TV2.

So it's TV TV, so we got two TVs. And last night I decided to put on, if you go on YouTube and type in Fireplace, you can make your screen look like a whole fireplace. I've been doing this for a couple of years now, but people were going crazy for it. I took a picture of it. I put it on Twitter, and I was like, look how cool this is.

It's a nice little setting while I'm watching Sunday night football. And everybody, not everybody, but a lot of responses were, clean up your cords. And I knew that was coming. And I just didn't care, but I was so mad at them that people, I'm like, here's the fireplace.

Look how cool this is. And everybody always wants to be like, oh, look at that painting on the wall. Look at that. Look at this. So they said, clean up the cords, and I was just furious. And I wrote about it in a blog,

I wrote a pretty mean thing in the blog. You told them to kill them. Let me read it. I told them to kill them. You didn't just say that. Here we go. I'm going to read it right now. I mean, you said it neither than that.

This is the first paragraph of my blog. Before we get started, I want to address the people who are inevitably going to tell me to clean up the wires around my TVs. Kill yourself. I mean it. This isn't a joke. This isn't sarcasm. Go out. Buy a gun.

Put the barrel in your mouth and pull the trigger. If one of you kids or if one of you actually kills yourself because of me and I'm asked to apologize for what I said, I'll refuse. I won't do it. I'll go to your funeral and lick the tears right off your mother's cheek. I'm not cleaning up the wires around my TV. Not now, not ever. I'll buy more HTML cords and randomly place them around my TVs before I do that. The mother's tears got so dark.

They got so dark. That was a stunning line. I was shocked. You ever, sometimes I just get fed up. Is it still your pin tweet where you're just like hitting the buttons? Yes. That's how I pictured you typing that. You're like, I will suck your mother's tears out of her eyeballs.

I'll lick the tear right off. glistening cheek Jesus Christ I wanted to bring that up because I was just it triggered it It triggered me because what I have a problem with

is and I have a problem with it is like when you're setting these wires up it takes just as much effort to put them in the front as it does just putting them in the back of the TV right Like you at some point you set the wires up

They didn't just like show up there by like the grace of God They didn't just like You weren't just like oh I'm lazy So I'm just gonna put them in the front You had an option When setting it up to just put them in the back

and make it look somewhat neat. All I know is I hooked everything up. I hooked up my Roku. I hooked up the Xbox and all that. You chose to put them in the front. I just did it. And then however it was, that's how it was once we were done.

That's incompetence. That's, that's, that's, that's, why do you care? I don't care about your, I care. I care about that decision. I care about the decision. Listen, day one, you have a,

you have a empty apartment. Day one, you, you put your TV on the stand. You have these wires in your hand. You just chose to put them in the front. You chose to put them in the front. Listen, you can have your stupid. stupid fucking setup where you got to put that book, whatever the name of that book is.

What is the name of that book? Riggs, you saw the book and you asked me what the fucking name of the book is. It stares you right in the face when you're sitting on that couch. It's just Tiger Woods, because that's the name of the book, and that's who it's about staring you right. Dude, my buddy wasn't in on that joke. My roommate, he doesn't understand it. And he's like, so he whispered to me.

I guess he was kind of like embarrassed. They were like, he didn't know. He's like, dude, like, are you guys fucking with me? He was like, do not know the name of that? Because we were doing the bit. It was the buffet of bits What's the name of that book And I'm like

Oh, the one with Tiger Woods I'm like, I think the one with Tiger Woods on the front And Robbitts love Robbie goes to me He goes The name of the book Is fucking Tiger Woods

He's like It's like it's like Tiger Woods It's the easiest name of the book ever All right But back to this It's my apartment Like let me

I can do it ever No Because I can say that It's my way You can say about anything Yeah Because if it's my apartment I don't have to have it

To like how you want it We're still allowed like the general public still allowed to ask you why when you made the decision to put your wires like a fucking caveman why you did that because i pay rent at that place that doesn't make any sense then you're basically just taking away the entire industry of like fashion and like not even fashion like uh um like like setting up houses what's like architecture interior decorating you're saying that that just like doesn't mean anything I mean the inside of my apartment is not interior

decorated it's just you're saying that that doesn't matter it's your apartment you have like you pay the rent so you can have a fucking pigsty in there and I agree that you can but we're not allowed to make fucking comments on it all I hate is that my mother doesn't have to be

crying at my fucking wake because you decide to put these fucking wires in front of your TV it's not that big of a deal just answer the question why did you do it anyone in that triggered the fuck at it this company. I mean, I'm the one probably triggered more. Anyone who can post a picture of anything at this company, and it'll be like, look how cool

this fireplace is and this other TV. I'm watching football. And someone would be like, that's a stupid painting. And I just got fed up with it. So I told them to go kill themselves. And I fucking mean it. If it's a stupid painting, I'll say that you're like, you don't have the same taste as me. But I can't accept the fact that you are getting so angry at people saying to clean it up when you had the choice and chance to clean it up at some point in your life. Frankie, how badly did you?

you want to tweet a Trent to clean it up. So badly. And I would have Well, to me, I don't know. I would have sent you the link to my blog and been like read the first paragraph. It would have been too late because I only saw it to, well, when did you tweet it last night? Last night. Yeah.

I didn't see it last night. So it would have been too late. But if I would have saw it right after town, it would be like, you got to clean that fucking shit up, man. Because like, you just got to, dude. You got to clean that shit up. There's no reason for it. There's no reason.

I set it up. I set up my TVs. I set up everything. And then I stepped away. and I was like, all right, I'm going to start watching TV. And it was that's how it was. But when you do that, when you set it up, you just like put them behind. I don't need everything to be harder to put it in the front.

All the fucking everything. Trust me, buddy. If it was harder, I wouldn't have done it. Everything that goes into the TVs and into every single device that you're putting in has a little input thing on the back. Has a plug in the back. The TV has a plug in the back. You're wrapping them around the TV. The HGMI card goes into the back of the fucking TV.

Why not just let it just sit? The problem is you brought it around to the front. One problem with the TV on the left is the Roku has the power cordon of the outlet or the strip is all the way on the other side. I looked at the picture. I really looked at it. There's some parts of the fucking setup that you can't help, right? It's hard to see because a lot of the entertainment center stuff is black it looks like and the wires are black. So there's stuff in the middle, right?

Where the two TVs meet, there's a lot of things in the middle that you really can't stop. Maybe put a tree or a little, or a little. Maybe put a little plant there. right but it's the other things that wrap around the front there's there's something that wrap around that just are so lazy and so they're just so unnecessary i don't know what to tell you this is how i have my apartment i are you honest some of of the responses of everyone else's little four tv set up there's some pristine tv setups in those responses on your block yeah there are there's this one guy that has four tvs set up or three TVs he has a big fucking flat screen inside like a

inside the wall that was built for that TV. And you also have these two little ones. You can't see a wire if you fucking had a hammer. You couldn't find the wire in that wall if you fucking tried. I'm a proponent of do whatever you want all the time. And, you know, I guess, yeah, you wear the same outfit every day. Yeah, I do. You put wires wherever the fuck you want.

Yeah? You don't have cares in the world. I don't. Not too many of them. There's one person brought it up on the beach. Yeah. This person's sitting on the beach. Yeah.

and it's still a better setup than yours anyway that's not true he's got to stand all over the fucking place the point of the whole thing is is if you have a two TV setup which it seems like a lot of people do put on a put on a nice fireplace on YouTube it'll really change the mood

of the room so I'm having a holiday party on Saturday in my apartment I guarantee you that like that guy's got an incredible fucking setup this is this is sexy yeah I will say I wasn't that triggered about this whole thing until comparing this to yours Trent Daddy is something We're looking at a picture of a guy who just has TVs floating on his wall.

They're just floating and images are just appearing. And I had no problem retweeting those. I wasn't going to be like, oh, look at your perfectly pristine setup. You should just let the wires hang. Who cares? People can do whatever they want. So I'm having people over and I'm going to put this fireplace on. Okay.

You guys are having a little house apartment. Yeah. And what's even worse is that we have a TV that like, so we have a weird looking living room where it's like kind of tight. So we have to like slide the TV out to turn perfectly. us and wires show when we do that and it drives me fucking nuts I wish we could put them into the wall I mean you've revealed yourself to be a triggered wire guy I'm a triggered wire guy I am that's okay that's okay that's right are we good on this I think so I mean the main takeaway was supposed to be put on this fireplace it'll enhance your life and instead people wanted to be like

look at your wires and then I told Robbie feel about it because you got you guys live together is he a wire he doesn't give up is he a I don't care the TV is the same way I do every night Would he like for them to just be cleaned up? Do you think in his heart of hearts he wishes that you just cared a little bit more? No, if he wanted to clean up those wires, I would help him do that. If he felt that way about it, because he also pays rent. If he feels that way, I will help him. But if he just lets it hang, which he does.

If I gave you guys $1. I will light it on fire in front of you, and I don't want it. Is there a price for me to, like, you said, do you want to pay rent? I'm giving you a dollar for your rent just to help you clean up those wires. That's not nearly enough. Wow. So there's a price now for what you like looking at it. I'm not saying I like.

look like I'm going to put it. I'll clean up your wires for you. You're not coming over. You're not coming over.

hey man where your clubs had this five minute just complete panic session clubs are gone somebody stole his fucking golf clubs the night before the biggest round of his life the night of the biggest round when he wakes up he's like they're like he's got to go he's got to leave in a few minutes

for the tournament no clubs jumps on Instagram puts out an offer. I'll give somebody five grand if any information leads to his stolen clubs, no leads. Then he calls Tyler.

Shout up the title list. They're the best. Torvan had already left town, but some of the local reps quickly gathered up what they could. They put together a TS3 driver. That's all you need. And three would with different settings.

Borrowed the club superintendent's five through nine act and that were a few degrees upright. Took a couple wedges from the pro shop, grabbed the blade putter that was heavier and an inch longer than his normal. one one, shoot 63, finishes with three straight birdies, goes from 74th to tied for 25th,

which guarantees him at least eight starts in the web.com. What a story. I read this story, and it's a great story. It's incredible that he shot a 63. Doesn't it also make you think, like, what are we all doing out here? Like, if, like, you have all your clubs,

and then you lose them, and you use some rag-tag group of clubs and you shoot a 63, like it's all random chance. Everything out there. I don't want to say at all it is, but because our boy Tigers change driver shafts

and all of a sudden just start driving the ball better and won a golf tournament this year. Yeah. So there's, I mean, equipment does matter. This is not a good example of that. Right. This, you're right. This was, this also just shows, though,

I think more of how equipment is more important for us. Like, these guys are so good. Correct. Give the guy fucking anything. Good point. And he'll be able to hit the ball close. That's probably the better takeaway. We got our new clothes.

The biggest thing for me was the consistency I now have with like different shafts. I never had that. I had everything off the rack. So all my clubs now are all the same consistency from driver to putter, basically. Like everything is just perfectly built for my swing. So back in the day, when I was just fucking just swinging as hard as I can and didn't know where the hell the ball was going, it was because with every single swing I took, I didn't know the difference between each club.

Now it's like everything's the same. So that helps me a lot. But. And also, they gave this guy a fucking weapon. They gave him a T. They did. Yeah. It's like, oh, we just have this like, good point.

We have this fucking cannon sitting in here. Like, just go bombs away, buddy. Like, are you kidding me? Good point. They didn't just give them, like, some BS. Like, they gave them. From, like, the 1920s. Oh, yeah, we need a club.

We got a TS3 driver right here. It's like, sick. It is kind of like, you ever here in baseball when a, like, a pitcher has a bad bullpen session before the game? He's like, I don't feel it today. And then he shows a perfect game. That's kind of what this is like. Yeah, I always say every time I've ever had, every time I've had a phenomenal range session before around. I never play well.

Every time. Not every time. But there may. Many times where I can't hit the golf ball. What's going to happen today? I go out. I once had the shanks. You wouldn't fucking believe outside the Bethpage Black.

I was hitting the ball. So I was there by myself. I had just caddied around at Garden City Men's Club. And anytime I'd get out early on my loop, I'd always play golf right after. So I'd still be home by like four. And my mom would be like, oh, how was your day? I'm like, I made $400 and I played the Bethpage Black. It'd be like the most productive day of all time.

I used to fucking love being able to say that. So. I mean, it's a good, I mean, it's a good fucking. Yeah. So I always used to go to the black all the time. And they had these fucking mats there that were like the fake grass. It was like that dark green. It was like brownish green fake grass.

And every single time I hit the ball sideways and it used to drive me nuts. But then I also felt like I couldn't just step up to the black without taking swings. So this one time... You have the worst relationship with mats. It's crazy. They're getting better now, though. They're getting better now. Bethpage replaced all theirs.

They have much better ones out. They're building a whole new thing there are. Yeah, they're building the whole new thing. Sorry. So I have the little, so I bet paid you get the little fucking wristband. Everyone knows you're playing it. Everyone's looking at me. They're like, oh, this young looking kid, this young Twink 14-year-old is about to go play the black by himself.

Let's see his swing. And I'm literally fucking hitting the ball left and right. I couldn't hit the ball more than 25 yards straight. It would just go straight to the left, straight to the right, straight to the left. And I swear to God, I thought about just going into my car and just going home. Yeah, just like keep the money. I'm just not, I'm not playing today. Like just keep the greens

I'm all set Because that's how bad it was And I ended up stepping up to the first tee And I had the best round On the black of my entire life Couldn't hit the ball in the rain Not one swing I don't understand that

First tee box I was shitting my pants Literally shit my pants Poop in your pants Dude I couldn't hit the ball And I'm stepping up to this fucking place And everyone's looking behind me I still have that like aura It's like oh look at this kid

Who thinks he can tackle the black You didn't even look at the warning sign And then you I stepped up there and I just drilled one right that minute I'm like I turned around, I'm like, that's right, boys. Like, I was Francis we met in the greatest game ever play. I gave him a little fucking head knot.

I think I shot like at 88 and I was like 15 years old. I was flying out there. That's pretty damn. Yeah. That was, course is awesome. Yeah. How about there going to be a major championship there?

I just got an email. Five months. I just got an email 10 minutes ago from the PGA championship. You have a major championship. New York State. I got it. I got an email from the New York State Parks at public.golfdelivery.com. And it's just a picture.

It's just a picture of the. the PGA championship and all these cool little things they have going on. Get your holiday ticket packages now. I mean, think about how amazing the PGA was this last year. We called it, I think, in the time, the most exciting major championship we'd seen in 10 years. Yeah. With Tiger making his charge, all the fistpuffs. Tiger in New York.

How loud the crowds were in St. Louis. And then with Brooks, kept barely holding on. Adam Scott was in the mix. It was this crazy finish to the PGA. And we're going to just have that. And when is it? That page and men. So we have a couple months here.

We got to get Tiger Woods to Borrelli's. Ooh. He's going to be down the fucking road. How do we get Tiger Woods to like try a fucking Borelli slice? That is, that is not the, that is not the worst thing. We're going to like, especially you rigs, you're starting to like get your little rolodex of golfers here. We should have a nice, like that word?

That's a good word. That's the right word too, yeah. That was the most perfect word you could have chosen. Yeah. You know what a roll-a-old is. He doesn't have a roll-dex, but yeah, it's a figure of speech. Building a roll-a-dex of golfers out here, and you're your buddies, right? That was incredible.

We should have a nice little pre-PGA championship meal at Borrellas with your rolodex of buddies. I wonder what, I bet they'd be willing to do that on like Monday. That's what I mean. Yeah. Hey, just drive 10 minutes down the road and you'll have like the whole room to yourself. We'll sit there. We'll talk golf.

We'll eat Italian food. Could you imagine Bryson and Borrelli? Oh, man, man. Man. That would be so good. And like, he makes me bring out the food. He's like, don't, like, don't drop that or like, don't play. Like, just, like, totally in my head.

With everybody he takes, he, like, critiques it. Oh, he's going to be chirping. But, like, he'll... We live in such a fucked up world. That could probably happen. Yeah. We got to get... We got to get Bryson to Borrellys.

That'd be a whole video in itself. Bryson at Burrell. Maybe we have Bryson like, hey, Tiger, come with me. Tag along. We have a lot of opportunity. They're in our fucking backyard. We have a lot of... PGA is going to be, I think, pretty big for us.

huge it's right in our backyard there's so many opportunities it's yeah it is awesome as the us over was at shenicock betpages is that much more accessible to the common man that it's gonna be and everybody gets to play it right like yeah shinnock has it's closer to augusta yeah and then it's unattainable from almost everybody beth page we talked about all the time i played like three weeks in a row there last yeah it's great up just petite time and play nothing better than when it's at a course that the public plays a lot because then you just i'm gonna watch the shit out of that and know every single shot they hit. It's so awesome.

The last time that I played the Tiger video game, who was Lurge and I played Bethpage, probably a couple months ago. It's amazing. We love doing it. And we're always, we pick a lady golfer because they hit it the same distance. We hit it.

Yep, I remember you saying that. And then you get to hit the same. That's what it's great. Well, if you're fucking Tiger, he hits it like 370 when you put spit on it. It's not the same game. No, it's a completely different game. Whereas when you're Natalie Golbis,

she carries it like. Shout out. Shout out Natalie Golbis. Oh, that's great. Wow. That's my. go to in the game. Call her Nat.

Let's go Nat. It's a great game. Speaking of Barallies, I, and speaking of a different sport, which we weren't speaking about, Chris LaTang on the Penguins said that he hates Long Island. He hates Nassau County. He's like, I would much rather just play at the Barclay Center because the Islanders is the back of the Coliseum. I don't know if anyone knows that.

Is he enemy number one right now? I mean, right now he's enemy number one. They're playing tonight at the Coliseum. I'm not going to be able to go because we have an event in Hoboken that I'm fucking, I could cry right now knowing that it's a sold-out gaming in Rakes. Frankie is an islanders, Penguins, Nassau Coliseum, with an enemy walking into the building in the Crystal Teng. I got something that's going to pick up your spirits. There is a buzzy gift on everyone's list this year.

I got a good news for you. Oh my God. Holy shit. So our first from the gallery, we're not going to get into it yet, but our first from the gallery is from this Australian guy. He calls himself Aussie Mick. It's this cool story. What a name.

We get into it later. Great little story about him and his buddies and all that. But at the end, he said, P.S. tell Frankie that a heap of us have hitched our NHL wagons to the islanders because we wanted to team up to support from over here in Oz and his passage to the aisles has led us to jump on board.

Dude, what a bandwagon to jump on. How great is that? Let me ask you this. They're sitting around Australia. Like, what are they, 24 hours? It's a whole other day, right? They might be 40 hours. Tonight's game is like 1 a.m. tomorrow in Australia.

They're just like waking up. Like, let's go, boys. Let me ask you this. Of all the things you've done at Barstool, a radio producer, you made a one-bite app, you did all these things, is becoming like the face of the New York Islanders fan base, the thing you're most proud of? The craziest thing that's happening, a lot of things have happened where I've stepped back and said, holy fuck, when I'm with Dave, right? Like, experiences that he's done that I've been along with, like, doing a pizza

with Olivia Culpo. Never in my life did I think I'd be, like, taking a picture of Olivia Culpo. That's like, she's fucking Miss Universe, like, eating pizza. But, like, personally, what the Coliseum meant to me and what the, what the Islanders have meant to me growing up where I used to sneak in and like do all this stuff. My dad, which I didn't even put in my blog, which I always forget. My dad used to give the guys,

the security guys, like a receipt from Borrellys, and they knew him, so they'd just rip it and put it in the ticket thing and he'd get in every single night. This is before we had season tickets. Like, we just had our system there. Now, fast forward to just a couple,

like last week, I'm at an Islander game with Fidelberg, and we're in the, we're in the suites section, like the owner's suites like when we're walking through the hallway, and I look in, and the owner just looks out and just points at me. He's like, Frankie,

and I just kept walking. like it was a regular day. I'm like, hey, it has going, John, I just kept going. That's insane. That's unbelievable. Oh, yeah. Frankie is a king in the Coliseum. Yeah. It's crazy, dude.

People were screaming his name like they just saw the Beatles from across the fucking And our team has sucked for so long. Imagine we just get good. It would be so fucking awesome. That's awesome. But yeah. I love this language. That a heap of us have hitched our NHLack.

He said a heap. Wow. I'm actually going to have to, like, you have to send that to me. Oh, it's on here, right? Yeah, I'll forward it to. Yeah, I'm going to have to see that, and I'm going to send that over to the guys, like, the guys who help me out with the tickets, they'll fucking love that. There's just this crew in Australia that they just love the islanders because of Frankie. It's great.

Oh, man. So anyways, let's jump in. Let's get into Aussie Mix from the gallery. Reminder, foreplay at varshalsports.com.

I keep thinking of an... When you said that in my name, keep thinking of like an Australian Coley Mick. I like that. I just picture him an Australian Coley Mick. That's perfect.

So it's a bit of a long story but it's very funny. He says basically there's an Australian crew. They're going to their buddy's wedding. About 16 of them are playing golf the day before that the guy set up. So they got a big group meet chat going. It says great chatter.

They're all talking about the format, about gambling, drinking with the boys, all this. Their mate, Cam is his name, just casually drops into the group chat that his missus is coming along.

Without further ado, we create a 15 man group, Matt minus Cam, and proceed to tear him to shreds behind his back, question his manhood, bitch about the misses, and, you know, just general stuff up that alley,

blah, blah, blah. How can somebody be so socially out of it? All that they would think, bring your wife to a boy's only pre-wedding round of golf is acceptable. Then, this is where the ultimate has graduate, Cam admits to the group that he would have more fun if his missus wasn't in his group

and request to be put and they force him without his wife. What? Who was only played two rounds of golf in her life. He goes on to say, if I owned a Borrelli's type restaurant, I'd ban him for life from a restaurant just for having the audacity to suggest

bringing his wife to a boy's golf trip. Now, wow. Let me say this. We've talked many times how I think it could be incredibly advantageous that if you're a significant other plays golf in certain situations, certain scenarios, and all of that.

This has nothing to do with boys, women, anything like that. I imagine if you flipped it and it was like a women's golf outing with all the girls. And one of them last minute was like, oh yeah, I'm going to bring my husband. And oh, yeah, I don't like play with them. So you guys just have to like play with my husband. They'd probably be like that's the most preposterous thing I've ever heard in my life. 100%.

The flip of being like, by the way, I don't like playing with my wife. So you guys got to play with her is maybe. He's breaking so many rules that like I can't keep up. Like his friend's got to be like, what's going on? Like first of all, you're bringing her, which is that's the broken rule. And second, you're trying to pawn her off on the rest of us. So, Cam, if you're out there listening, you're an asshole, and you should be, is he out of the group? Is this another one where we are, they're putting it on us to break the news to Cam?

So that's kind of how I took it. Otherwise, they wouldn't put his name in him. So I think Cam, buddy, listen up. This is the most psychotic. You got kicked out of the group chat. And literally, they started a separate one without you. And we're chirping you beyond your back, which you deserve, because this is such an outrageous move. at a certain point you've got to just kick him out of the group

because he clearly doesn't have the self-awareness to be your friend this also then leads me down the road of um it could be the moves should have been they should have just kicked him out of the group chat or started a new group chat or whatever and just never told him because there's nothing worse than being like he just doesn't know he's not like

oh my group chat really went dormant it's like no need you just like not on it I can't believe this I didn't see We've got a lot of them about Like hey man How do I talk to my buddy about he always invites his Girlfriend of the Boys golf

And it'd really be whatever This one with the extra wrinkle of Admits to the group That he doesn't He said quote Would have more fun if the Mrs. Wasn't it Yeah bro

Everybody would Everyone would have more fun If the Mrs. wasn't in any group Let her do the Mrs. It's actually If she's a golfer, like, all right, go, you know what? Cam should have to golf with her the day before. Let it get out of her system because she's not a part of this group.

It's not her. It's not her fault. It's not his fault, but it's just the way it is. It's actually, they have a 16 person, all guys boozing hard before the fucking wedding. It's something that everyone figured out that they were going to do. That's just, she's not invited. That's just what it is. Also, it says bring anyone.

She's only played two rounds of golf in her life. It's crazy. What's happening here with Cam? Cam is in massive trouble. It's stunning of the. there's people out there that that are still exist like this. Like this is like a stock character in a buddy film where like,

hey, I'm bringing my girlfriend and everybody's like, ah, boo, hiss. Like, but Cam is just a real person trying to do this. Yeah, we talked about this on the first podcast you ever did.

We did? We might have been like, I'm just saying, it's such a generic ground rule. I see what you're saying. No, you can't, it's just not.

And again, there needs to be a very clear separation between the two. Yep. Just like if it was a girl's golf trip, you wouldn't, they wouldn't, they wouldn't just bring the,

the boyfriend. No. Yeah, he's just here. No, he's not. And this is a girl's. Correct. Why fuck would we want him to be? We want to talk about our kind of shit.

The dynamic completely changes as everybody knows. You can't talk about anything. I do think this might have been another ploy by your boys to get us to tell you on the podcast publicly, you fucked up. You're off that group text. And the only way to get back on it, make sure you don't do anything stupid like this again. We got Ted. Ted said, what's the protocol when you come across golf course maintenance workers on the course? Now, this is a great question.

Yeah. Because we've all rolled up to the T. Yep. You look out in the fairway and there's like a maintenance worker driving like a tractor across the fairway. Get the fuck out of the fairway. Doing something. It's the first thing I think of was like, what the fuck's this guy doing?

But then I thought about it when you sent this message. And I'm trying to think rationally here. When I step up to the T-box, I see that guy for the first time all day and it drives me nuts. I'm like, how could he be on my hole? How could he be doing this while I'm about to hit a shot? But then you got to think about he's out there doing his job. He's gone on a hundred different holes that day. He's seen a hundred different golfers.

I'm not the first person he's been on his hole. He's just trying to get his shit done. Like, I'm not the first person he's inconvenience. So to me, he's not doing anything to me personally. He's just out there fucking trying to stop the sprinkler system from fucking like overflowing or something that we don't know. That's a very evolved and adult way to think about it, Frankie. I mean, like, I'm not the first person. I always think about that with like celebrities, right?

When like celebrities are like getting hounded by people, it's amazing when they're so nice at the end because you have to treat each person like that's like that's their first time meeting you yeah so you have to treat it the same way they're gonna remember it right you have to remember like did you read some book on this or something no I just I just had an epiphany where's this like mature

because I'm thinking of a guy I'm thinking of his first inclination when he was like fuck that guy I hate that guy I was like all right that's Frankie Borella I'm thinking of when I've been on a par I thought you were gonna say you step up to see try to hit the guy no but that is what I usually do

I hit this guy in the back of the head I get you get to add 50 yards of my driver's before I said I was sat at my desk and read this email and had this epiphany I used to like step up in the tee box and be like they'd be like you guys say for him like fuck that he knows where he's at and I just grip it and rip it like he knows what he's doing

and I just swing for the fences so my thing was not that I would be like mean to the guy but would be that I always pretty much just treat it like the guy doesn't exist right like when you step up in the tea because there's always this awkward thing of like what's this guy

doing it does he know we're hitting should we wait do we need to wait like no and I feel like my group for the most part is evolved to like you just pretend like he's not there. Yeah, I think now with this new light of vision, I think he knows that he you're hitting, right? I think he knows you're hitting. He's just trying to get that shit done. I always try to get like

an A-O-A and like make a little bit of... He's probably like fucking right, dude. I know you're like... I work on a golf course. These happen. Correct. There's a guy on a green on a part three and he's like watering a dead area. Like we should probably just like let him do that for those two seconds. That's basically

what the guy's email said, that he, I think this guy that emailed is one of those guys or something like that. And we should just let him water the grass for 10 seconds. He was like, so nice when guys like give me, like wait for a minute and a half while I finish up and then move on. It's great. How do you guys handle it? And I was like, I just pretend out you don't even exist. Yeah. They are

providing a service for the golf course. It's not like some rascal out there, just dancing on a part three. They don't. Then our fucking asshole mind say, look at this golf course. This place is a piece of shit. Look at these greens. They're dead. It's like, I didn't even let the guy fucking water it. It's like, with his head. It's like, Be respectful to your waiter or the either they're going to spit on your steak.

Sometimes it's the heat. It's right in the middle of the heat of the day. It's like 2 o'clock. The fucking sun's burning. That guy's got to go out there and water some greens. He doesn't want to be out there. He has to do. He has to.

It's his 9 to 5. I get it. I just think that usually you make them, I feel like half the time when I do establish connection with the maintenance worker to be like, hey, I'm going to hit. They're always looking to be like, yeah, no shit, thumb ass. Right. I'm on a golf course. I know you're going to hit.

Right. But then you don't do it and you bury the guy. It's like, I just. sends a missile that guy with him out of usually they're pretty good about it too

they'll always turn off like their trailers or their cars right I love that I love when they do that they'll sit under a tree and you just hear like the engine turn off

it's like that guy knows what he's doing but then the pressure's on totally I love that he's looking at you like hey buddy I'm giving you

the stage here yeah don't fuck it up I've stepped on the tebox where he's where like a tractor trailer's been making the noise

and then you address the ball and you hear the engine go off and I've just like chuckled to myself I'm like that guy's watching me

right now That was like That was really good Golf kind of impression It was a good one was that, Brakeey Zach asked Thoughts on amateurs using their own scorecard Holder

So I do this Yeah, this is more of a rake's question I'm not a huge scorecard holder guy So I'm always the guy that keeps score And naturally most of the time When you're playing golf It's hot outside And I'm a big sweater

So when you put the score card in your pocket Unless you have a scorecard holder It just gets soaked You can't even write on it. So I realized that, I don't know, six or seven years ago when I started to get more into golf, that there has to be a better way. And so when I, the first, first, like, really nice course I ever played, really, was the country club in Brookline in Mass.

Shout out Francis we met. Francis we met. Holy shit. And they have an awesome logo. It's just a squirrel. It's a great logo. One of my favorite logos. Why a squirrel?

I don't know. Stumped him. Stumped him right there. I will say they have two logo. logo similar to Oakmont. One of them's a squirrel and the other one is, because it's just called the Country Club, TCC, is almost a New York Yankee

style like TCC all written into like one. I got it. And that's kind of, I think, looked at as more of the members logo. Whereas the squirrels looked at more of kind of the more modern, like guesty type logo. But anyways, I rolled in and I

this was right when I was going to my little revelation. They're like, hey man, maybe you should look for a really badass scorecard holder and they have these leather ones sitting right up on the counter with it comes like a little pencil holder just kind of a really simple

like simple as best all that type of scorecard holder leather and I bought it right there on the spot and I've had it ever since and now it's gotten the point where it's got like some of the leather is like lighter brown because it's been through a lot I like that

it's like a wallet. I love what a wallet gets worn in it's like we've been through some fucking battles. That's how it is, but imagine a wallet's been through, like, sweat on the golf course. Every time easy, you're probably sweating all over. Pretty much every time. Yeah. A wallet.

What? You guys said wallet. Yeah, a leather wallet. Whatever. Say it's a wallet. Wallet. It's a wallet. A wallet.

Yeah. You were going real, it was real round, and the color was like blue on that. It was a little too much. Wallet. Wallet. Wallet. What do you think? think he said,

Wold it? No, you just, I don't know. You don't want to do the work thing. It didn't sound right. It didn't sound right. Well,

his next question is perfect, because this next guy said, is Frankie stubborn or just dumb? What? Well, it was a longer thing about the Frankie buttern eyes, and he was like,

I just don't understand how someone who's actually a pretty solid golfer can possibly not have the shot. He went through and said, like, I had the chipping yips for a while, and I learned to just bump and run a seminar for a while,

and then eventually it got better, but every time I look at Frankie, He's swinging like 800 miles an hour with a blob wedge in his hand and blading it over the green. So is he just stubborn or is he just in the thumpers? I don't know what the answer is. You've seen me have these struggles. You watched Lurch. Let me ask you this.

You watched Lurch try and break it down from me. I listened to him and I skull fucked it right across the green. Do you want to have better, like, do you want to have more functional better results chipping? Or do you just really badly want to be able to hit like sick flop shots? I want to be able to elevate the ball to where. I used to be able to, right? I had that shot in my bag where every time my buddies, my close buddies have told you when we went to that simulator, my friend Robbie was like, dude, he used to actually be really

good around the greens. I was praising your former chipping. That was his like strength. So the fact that now I have to like adjust my game, which I still can't even, I'm still trying to bump and run shit. It's just, that's kind of his question. It's more like, yeah, it's like I need to learn that shot. I'm not going to not learn that shot.

There's no way I can't. There's some reason I can't. just can't figure it out. I'm trying to lift the shot up with my knees or some shit. Do you think you're the most famous, terrible chipper in the world? I don't know. What a mean thing to ask. I don't know anyone else that like publicly.

You know, like who publicly? Charles Bargley's known as having the worst golf swing in the world. Right. Do you think there's someone out there that is more well known for having a specific bad golf shot? Yeah. I don't know. It's kind of crazy when you think about it.

I can't name one person that I know has like the yips. It's probably you. That's scary. I just think, well, you can spin it on it. It's a testament to how well-known you are. It's a brand, yeah. It's an unfortunate brand, but... Thousands of people out there in the world who literally just can only

blade chips over the green tank. You're the most famous of all of them. I have to figure it out, because I can't... I have to be able to. I mean, like, almost every person I meet who's... Who uses as part of their greeting, like, hey, man, I'm a big fan of the podcast, makes a comment about it. Yeah.

Frankie. This is the summer. Next summer is the summer that I get my short game back. I don't know who's going to teach it to me. I don't know how I'm going to do it, but I will figure it out. I will. I will figure it out. You believe that? Yes. Okay. Then it's going to maybe happen.

Next summer you're on? Like the upcoming summer is the summer that I hit the shit out of my fucking wedges. Last one. This guy, Frankie, is his name. emailed in. So this is a great one. This is the guy that emailed in about having the dream, where his whole family is meeting Tiger, Tiger's in the backyard. He goes to meet Tiger, and he can't do it. Remember his family was like, oh, did you talk to Tiger? Isn't he great?

And he's like, no, I haven't gotten to meet him yet. And then when he finally goes to meet Tiger and finally meet him for the first time and talk to him, he wakes up. He emailed in to give a follow-up email and say that my story about meeting Tiger affected his life. He said,

while I was listening to you paint the picture of how you got to talk to Tiger, I had a brief panic attack on to the school. And all I can think about is how I'm going to wake up before I even get to hear this interview. I was so absorbed of this episode. I almost rearing it someone at a red light from not paying attention because I thought I was dreaming. And then I would wake up before I got to hear Tiger speak. Luckily, I didn't.

And he doesn't know when he's awake and when he's dreaming anymore. He's got to spin one of those little fucking tops. That's right. He legitimately is lost in some weird space between reality and the street. Maybe you will give him a breakthrough though. Maybe in the next time he has this dream, since he has it. he has the information of you meeting him and what Tiger would say. Maybe he'll be able to finally meet Tiger.

That's right. I think this was a very happy ending, actually. Him being like, I did it because I was having the panic attack and the way home from school. I almost hit somebody at the red light, but at the end of the day, I got to hear the interview. That's right. So now he's going to come full circle.

But I did laugh out loud when I thought about this guy having a panic attack being like this guy, Riggs is literally just describing my dream. He said this is not going to work out. So that's it. It's for play at basketball, I like that spinning thing. It was a good little... The part in Inception, when they talk about how, like, these people don't come here to dream,

they come here to live, that, like, I'd, like, pause the TV and was like, that's the craziest thing I've ever heard. In, like, a good way. Yeah. I was like, that's such a good movie. I got to watch it, like, five times. I agree with that. I think I've only seen it, like, once and a half.

Like, the second time I watched it was kind of a 50% watch. I made it through the whole thing, but I wasn't really paying attention on my phone. Whereas the first time I saw it was in theater. I was jacked up. And I do believe that I'm not my, I'm not smart enough to have comprehended the whole thing right away. Nobody was. Right. So I really need to go back and kind of re-consuming the whole thing.

They don't come here to dream. They come here to live. Joseph Gordon Levitt's like one of the best. I love that guy. Yeah, he's great. Amazing. He's incredible. And they're doing like the whole thing and the stuff is falling off the bridge as everything's

happening. It's an insane movie. You're thinking like the different levels. Like, okay, which level is that? I almost start crying. that's happening why and with him you're thinking like can Leo handle this emotionally with his attachment to

yeah it's then it's spoiler for anybody at the end doesn't is it the end on the with the thing spinning yeah and then they don't they don't show what happens yeah but the director the director came out and said the ending okay I haven't read that I haven't read that here so don't spoil it well maybe you could

no we'll talk about it don't spoil it if anybody's got inception thoughts you let us know it's not really spoiling it right because the way they end it you don't know yeah Ambiguous. Ambiguous. Yeah. That's how some movies,

they do that on purpose. It's a good word. The thing's still buzzet and like when they, you know, it's kind of like, it's like, what is it in a little bit of steam? Yeah.

It's losing some steam. It's like, what is they just going to pick it back up? And then the world where they can just like create things. Like it's, fuck. It's, what a movie. What a movie is, right.

It's a, I'm going to have to watch that tonight. That might be. That's weird, though, because I feel like around this time, I need to be watching Christmas movies. Yeah, I watch Santa Claus over weekend. I'm watching Harry Potter right now.

The whole thing. The whole thing, beginning to end. It's a grind to get through the first two movies. We're just dunking on lights camera podcast right now. This is our show. We talk about movies now. You know, the problem is when you watch it with someone, so I'm making my girlfriend watch it. I'm making her watch Harry Potter.

Is that really bad? She's allowed. You can't make her either. She's her own person. No, I literally was like, you have to watch this today. If someone's going to get mad at me for that, then that's the softest shit. Yeah. She has to fucking watch Harry Potter.

I've been telling people who kill themselves all day. She has to watch Harry Potter and she's going to like it. The problem is... She's a strong independent woman. The problem is... She makes more money than you. It's probably a fact. The problem is...

Sorry. That's like a little too much information that I know. She's got a great job. The problem is that... It's a lot. The problem is is that when you watch something that you are passionate about, right? And you're watching it with something,

someone that you want to enjoy it. You hold them to this standard of like you must enjoy it. You must get hooked. You must want to know everything that happens in a movie. And we're just watching it. And like I stopped the movie the day. I'm like, I feel like you're just looking at it. I said, I feel like she's not watching attentively enough.

No, I was like a really big part in the movie came up. And I said, I stopped. I paused the movie. And I said, I feel like. You're just looking at the screen. I said, I feel like you're just staring at the screen. Is there anything going on in there? Are you like, are you getting attached to Harry and Hermione and Ron?

And she's like, yeah. I'm like, I'm starting a quizer. I'm like, well, what is this? I mean. She's like, I don't know. I'm like, well, then we're not watching the rest of the movie. And we just like went to go see like the tree or something. I just made it.

For like the five minutes later, after that were you just watching her watching the movie? Dude, I literally, there would be part. And I'd look at the core of my eye. I'm like, oh, my gosh, she's going to get emotional in here. And she would just stare at it. And I paused. I said, you're just staring at the screen. You are not engaged at all.

But you know what? Maybe she doesn't have that connection to that movie. Like, I do. Right? Like, I love that movie. I love that movie series. Everything that comes in that movie, I want to know what happens next. The way I consumed Harry Potter was I actually, I watched the first three movies.

And then they hadn't made the other ones yet. Just read the books? So then I read the book. See, I read the first book without even knowing there was a movie out. My mom got it from me for Christmas or whatever. So I just like read the first book. There was like years after the first book came out, obviously. And I liked it.

I really enjoyed it. But then, obviously, I was just like not smart enough or cared enough about books where I realized that watching movies were a lot cooler than reading books. So I stopped reading the books. I will say that the... But I heard the books towards the end gets so much more into detail. The Harry Potter series, especially. it's almost like the first two books were written for kindergarten.

And the ones after that are written like these dark, fanic... The way that she evolves as a writer is off the charts. She becomes a legitimate writer. And it's just like they're dark, they're complex. You're like, holy fuck. What am I reading here? And then you go back and read the first two, which is what I did. And it's like, these are out of that type of issue.

Right. It sucks too because like we're up to that. Well, we may not get past the next two because I don't know if I'm going to allow her to watch the next couple ones. I think that's something wrong with me because I used to do this with Islander tickets if I felt that you weren't paying attention enough to the game or the season. Shut up to Spire.

Yeah, that. But my cousins would all come over and they knew I had the book of season tickets upstairs and like my cousin's like, I want to go to the game tonight. I'd like, what's the standings? How many, what's their record? If they didn't know, I'd just walk out the door and just go by myself.

They'd just be sitting there. I think we're sensing a pattern here. No, no, it's just a passion thing, right? I don't get, like, mad. I don't get, like, mean. I just, like, I just, like, I just like, I expect them to be, I don't know. I just like, I expect of the people to be the same things as me, which I guess is wrong. But I'm kind of funny about it, too, right?

Like, she was laughing. And then we just, like, went to go see the Christmas tree, which is honestly, I fucking hate the Christmas tree. Really? There's a million people there, getting bumped into people. And the worst part is you just look at a picture or something. It's insane. It never changes. It's the same thing.

Same star and everything. Everything. It's the same thing. I don't think that's how that works. Well, then why do you go to the Grand Canyon Shire? Right, I was like, I don't want to go to Hawaii. I just look at a fucking picture. It does look at you in the Christmas spirit.

You do look at it and you're like, all right, and they have the music playing. They added this new thing where like on this wall of Saxo Avenue, they play the music with the lights. It's pretty cool that part. I'm with you. I don't understand fireworks. But for me, it's like, dude, when you're around these people and everyone's taking pictures, my biggest pep peeve right now of that place is that you fucking, you walk through and everyone gets mad when you walk through their picture.

I almost like freaked out on this family. I almost was like everyone's taking pictures. How do I advance? No, in New York, you can't get mad at people for walking through your pictures because that's just like life in New York. You got to see this place. Everyone stopped.

It's almost like you're walking through one of those things where everyone's like standing still. You're walking around. Everyone's taking a picture. Yeah, I used to try to avoid getting people's pictures because our offices by whatever that building in the flat iron building. We're always taking pictures of it.

And I just burn right through them now. I'm just like, I got to go. Well, you don't care. You made that very fucking clear You don't care about anything I don't care about very A little number of things He cares about less than you care about

True Which is what I just had I guess we had a revelation That I care very much about people caring About the things that I care about Right And you do not look positively on people That care about

Things that you care about In a way less Correct That's true We work through some things here Wow times out That's not me you guys hear you No

I'm right No Frankie and her, buds. It's opposite to attract. Imagine Frankie watching you watch Harry Potter. How upset you'd be? No, because I get invested in movies like that. Like, I get really into it.

I've been watching the Marvel movies with Bob, who I live with, who is obviously very into them. And I get, I'm all jazzed up. I don't even want to say it. Imagine Frankie watching you build your entertainment center. Try me fucking nuts. That'd be tough. Try me nuts.

That'd be tough. Real quick before, something I've never said out loud. I'm not on this Marvel. I'm not on this event. Avenger train. I want to be so bad. It's gotten by me so much. I haven't, I haven't caught up. You got to commit to it. I can't. I want to be so bad. I want to be. I avoid all spoilers. I have no idea anything. I don't know any people, but I've never seen the main movies. I've never seen Gardens of Galaxy. I love that shit, though. I love that stuff. I love Star Wars. I love Harry Potter.

I love Iron Man. I just, I never watched the other ones. I never watched Captain America. I never watched The Hulk. I never watched door. I never watched any of the Gardens of Galaxies. Spider-Man. Spider-Man. I saw the original one. I just saw the original one. I was. I was. I one with what's his name. Toby. Tobe McGuire. The upside-down, Spider-Man kiss?

Correct. You just got to start chipping away. Just start. Chipping away. It's like, that's like 35 hours. That's 10 years of movies. You're sitting around re-watching Harry Potter movies. Good point.

Tough to really argue that there. Close this out. All right, I'm saying. All right. We'll be back next week. It's going to be, we're getting close. Almost to Christmas.

Go to store that martialtsal sports.com. That's a kill shot. Sweters on. We got all kinds of good stuff. Frankie can't recover from that. Hit it hard. Hit it hard.
