Hey, 4Play listeners, you can find us every Tuesday and Thursday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Foreplay, I'm at my Barstool Sports. We come to you today live from Nashville, Tennessee. My first time here, if you don't count the COVID year, which is when we played the country stars and the scramble. The whole world at that time was shut down. It was summer. Nashville's not really a place.

I would say that you get all the Nashville feel when bars. and everything are shut down. I think that's kind of the entire Nashville feel. It definitely is. When I was here for the Chicks in the Office live show, they did a stop on Broadway. That was the first time I had been to Nashville and experienced that way. It's pretty awesome. And I love country music and live music.

You would love it down there. We just came from New Orleans Frankie and I. That's another place where you walk around and we were on Bourbon Street and the street is insane and you hear a bunch of live music. It had a very similar vibe to Nashville. It's a very similar. It's very similar. Kind of reputation to a degree of like similar kind of, you know, you walk around. It's a little bit like more dive barry than it is like clubby or fancy or gaudy.

It's more, you know, live music, all that kind of stuff. So yeah, you guys are hitting back to back spots. We are. A lot of food. I, yeah, we got to get, I got to get natural hot chicken, but I don't know if my body can withstand. Did you not get it last night? No.

Okay. What did you get last night? What did I get last night? I just got like a burger. Okay. You know, I got a chicken, chicken sandwich from the room service. Yeah. And they had a bunch of aoli or something like a bun, and I dropped the bun, and it ended up upside down on the floor of the hotel like carpet.

So everything that was there stuck to it. So I had to eat it. They've got to think that was come for sure, which is unfortunate. But it is what it is. I mean, all, you know, all kinds of stuff on it. And you know what? You don't mind that. I feel like.

No, but we just started the show. And, like, we meet so many people at these events that we go to, the classics and stuff like the Zerat, Classic. and we see these like little kids. I'll be like, huge fan of the show. I just can't be talking about semen like, I don't know, two minutes into the show. So on the last show,

it was the first episode that Frankie and I'd ever done without you. So that always gets, it gets away from us sometimes. You're going to really get a year. An hour in, we started to really lose our minds. How long did you guys go for?

Hour and 45? Something like that. It was a good show. And when we first started off, we kept it very professional. We were like, we are doing a golf podcast. We don't want to screw

up everything that we also had so much to talk about you had a lot to talk we had like natural talking points because your whole week we had a time barely get through it all but then i mean people know who listen the roman ad got away from us um you can't so i just kind of spun off i've never seen this the screen that you have where like you get the ads sent to you and it shows you like which ads can be pg pg 13 and r rated i saw in the top left it says like uh it said roman it said r rated it could be r rated and once i read that that halfway through the read, I just started cursing. Yeah.

Throwing as many dirty words as I could possibly think. Okay. So you took it almost as like a suggestion. Correct. Supposed to be all right. Yes. That's right. Not that it could be.

Yes. Yeah. I figured that with everything that was going down to dessert classic and everything that I was seeing online that there had to be significant stuff for you guys to discuss that would keep you from flying off the rails. Big time. It worked for 70 minutes. That's good.

That's cool show. That is. And then if you want to stick around for the. a house afterwards it's on you that's right that's not you guys fault absolutely um all right we got much to get to your boy has bought twitter yeah Elon Musk you've been blessed wait a minute that went through i believe that it has gone through no way yeah there was a statement release that was uh i believe it said we have entered uh into an agreement that is a definitive agreement that Elon Musk will uh acquire all of Twitter for about 44 billion dollars i got like

the chills a little bit on that because that's a massive thing in our lives in our lives i think it's large and i'm just i'm always interested in uh kevin clancy kFC had a tweet about it earlier today that i aligned most with because it's you know i haven't really followed this story all that closely i just it's one of those headlines you see where it's like Elon musk wants to buy twitter and it's like that's pretty insane but what i essentially what kevin said was this is aren't we just going from a bunch of rich people owning the app to now another rich person owns the app like i don't know on the level that i use use Twitter. Am I going to see much of a change?

I think there's a massive difference. Maybe, uh, maybe not. Just like, uh, no, I don't, I don't know that you'll see much of a change. I think that the fact that someone that has problems with the platform, just like a lot of people that complain about it or like the things that they do with it or things they don't do with it. Someone like that has been outspoken about why they want social media to change, literally went out and bought it. It's like the first time in history that like a social media company has been bought by a user that had complaints and like changes that they wanted to make

and he just went out and spent like $46 billion or whatever it ended up being to go do that. Like I think a lot of people are like, holy shit. Like that's a significant change in our... It's also monumental that someone could have enough money to buy something that is a huge part of public discourse and conversation. He just bought it.

Think about how important owning social media. is. Dude, fucking Zuckerberg's like talking in front of the, in front of like all of these judges every single day about like what's fair, what's not fair. I tried. I pictured them. I pictured them sitting up there. I saw every single one of them. Yeah, it's. I saw them all sitting up there with their fucking cloaks on like Baltimore. And I know and I know there's a whole free speech. It's funny. They still do that. There's a whole free speech part of this. But that's like the stuff that like I don't use Twitter. I use Twitter to make people laugh. And I know. There's parts of our brain. that just get like we don't even know what Twitter's doing to us.

But the free speech part's a little bit, always a little bit weird to me on something like a social media app or website because that's not general, like that's not the same thing as free speech as a constitutional right in the United States of America. Right. Because of the other day, Twitter's a private company. It's a private website. Yeah.

Like they actually, there's no, like they could have you to speak however the fuck you want on there. It's like we could delete comments on barcelsports.com. There's no free speech there. We get to write whatever we want. And then if we want to delete your comments, like, or. we want to say, or deactivate or not allow if you write horrible vulgar stuff. Like, we could just do that.

Right. So there's not, Twitter's really no different than that. It's just way bigger, obviously. Listen, it's a very interesting thing that's happening. I don't know all the ins and outs of it. I will say when I got on Twitter this morning is the first time this had happened. The format has changed. I don't think it has anything to do with what's going on with Elon Musk.

But the format, it looks like Instagram now. And I'm the only one. I went to a bunch of people like you guys. And I was like, does your Twitter look like this? And it doesn't. Your guys's Twitter looks like the old Twitter. Mine looks like Instagram is driving me crazy. So, you know, it looks like Instagram.

Dude, everything's like zoomed in. That's obviously something they've been working on for a long time. Like, look at that. That's my Twitter. You can scroll. It's got big pictures. What? Yeah.

Auto play looks like Instagram. Almost looks like Twitter or something. Yeah, I don't like it. So, you know, Elon Musk and I have a storied history. But if he could change that, that'd be great. I'm all for free speech, obviously. And I think that Elon must being very sensitive to that and constantly rallying and tweeting

about that for years now is a cool, it's just mostly an intriguing thing that he bought it. Like, what is he going to do with it? This is the guy that sent rockets into fucking space as a private company

who was laughed at by everybody, including, I believe, Bill Gates, who like shorted Tesla stock and now Tesla has obviously made him the richest person in the world. See that meme? Oh, my God. Elon absolutely bought,

Bill Gates. That's what I mean. That guy owns Twitter. Like, Elon Musk. All the things you want to say about Elon Musk, like, I don't know where he falls on

most of the things, like, whether it be politics or like, whatever his view of life. I just know that, like, I've listened to him on interviews before. I think he's a really interesting dude. What he's done for the world is clearly made the world better. I mean, he's like, clearly just made the world better with all the stuff. He did. I mean, he's just bringing all this clean energy into cars and all this stuff. He's doing great.

The fact that that guy now owns something so big in our lives, like Twitter, I think is really interesting and cool. I do. It's interesting for sure. He's like a normal dude that has the most money on the planet. That's this is my perception of him. He's like a normal dude with like kind of normal everyday like, um, like obvious viewpoints of the world where he's just like everything's just kind of like, yeah, that's like what we should be doing. Like he wants to give like everyone Wi-Fi and he just like went out and did it with like Starlink.

Like he just like has very simple points and now that guy just owns social media. That's pretty fucking cool. Yeah. Like we talked about it, uh, the Monday after the Masters on the rundown when it was like Elon Musk is apparently going to try to be a majority owner or whatever. And I said what's really cool about the whole situation is that he's he has now in real life with much bigger things the ability to and is literally doing what like you would do as a child if you just had a limited money. It's like if you just wanted to buy New York City and turn it into Chuckie Cheese like you could just do it. He's basically like, oh yeah, I'm just going to buy. This is a disaster.

This is Twitter stuff. I hate these guys. I'll just buy it and then do whatever the fuck I want with it. That is absolutely incredible. I mean he and to your point, Frankie, about how I think he is making the world better. put you know he's like trying to build what tunnels all around and get rid of like traffic and people can laugh like that's a horrific idea might not work but he's fucking trying like the guy's actually trying to come up with new ideas he is yeah i mean it's cool i got some blogs to delete

but the whole thing is that's pretty cool watch out so please Elon please do not take i love twitter everybody knows who listens to show i talk about how much i love twitter all the time and i have been hard on Elon Musk for a long time just don't take my twitter away please i i I love Twitter. Well, I got good news for, I think one of his tweets that I saw today or maybe earlier, he said, I hope that even my worst critics remain on Twitter because that is what free speech allows. Here I am. I'm here.

So that's good. You can keep criticizing him, I think. It'd be funny if he just started deleting. I tweeted earlier today that I love Elon Musk. So. Yeah, smart. Do you think he, it would be funny if he went in and just edited people's tweets himself. Like your old tweets, it was just like, you know, Musk is the best.

Well, Uncle Chaps was retweeting all my old. Elon Musk blogs. Oh no. Since we're on the fucking topic of space and everything, I know we've got to get to golf talk and all this. Something came across my desk the other day that really has just put a halt in all the momentum I had in this thing we call life. And it was a fact that it was a fact that we don't know for sure, for certain,

who named the planet that we live on Earth. You type it into Google. It just says, we don't know. First, the first thing, it just says, we don't know. You know, there's always these ways that you can get, like, around, like, all right, like, you can pull, like, EAR from, like, old English and then, like, combine that with, like, the TH and, like, somehow it means dirt. But, like, if you look on Google, that first response, I've never quite seen anyone

to say, we don't know. It says the answer is, comma, we don't know. It's just flat out, just live science. dot com. Do you kind of like it that way? I always fuck that. Yeah. Do you kind of like it that way?

I do like it. I don't know. Yeah. I, well, who got to, who got to name the planet, dude? We don't know. We just kind of started calling it that.

Someone did. Someone did. I don't mind. I think we're in a simulation. I think this place has been here for a real long time. Okay. I think Elon thinks we're in a simulation.

I think someone just typed in Earth onto a fucking folder on their computer. And we're just, we're like, we're in the folder. That's how we got the name. Yeah. We're just a folder on the computer. And how did we know that though? How did we like?

We don't know the folder. But I mean, how did we see the folder was named earth? Like we're just accepting the fact that things happen. Like we're just accepting the fact that this place is called Earth. Like someone already decided that for us, dude. Yeah. We accept a lot of those things.

Big time. I think like all of them. We accept the fact that this world is spinning at 800 miles an hour and we're just floating with it. It's not that we, it's something we're forced to accept. Big time. Like. Yeah. I mean,

I definitely accept it. I guess maybe some people don't, but generally, it's weird. You're talking about things that I don't, we don't have the choice to accept or not accept. It's just what's happening. You know, like people that really don't like accept things. Everybody accepts them. But I'd say on a large level, people that decide at that just like live in the woods as their own like society and do things their own way. Right.

Like, otherwise we are all doing it. Like people, people willingly every day go to like, like, do something for the majority of their day that they hate and that they don't want to be doing. Yeah. Yeah. They're literally just being like accepting everything. And I guess on the, they're wearing clothes. They don't want to wear. They're like, yeah. Accomplishing tasks they don't want to accomplish. On the on the level that Frankie's talking about though, I think I just passively accept those things. You when something like that comes across your desk, it becomes your entire focus. Well, I always have to. And then you're trying to interact with it. We talked about this on the

plane and I almost had to ask like the pilot to ground the plane because then we realized because, you know, the thing that people like to do on my Twitter, they don't engage with me about golf or anything. They just like to ruin my day when it comes to like interesting wild facts that they know that will legitimately derail my day and everything that I have going on. Just spiral me. And the guy goes, he gave me a riddle. Yeah.

And we're sitting on the plane. He goes, Frankie, what's the only thing to name itself? And Trent and I looked at Trent said, now what the fuck is this? And Trent just stared just fucking blank, a blank stare, a thousand miles stare. We tried to figure it out. Yeah. We could not figure out. what named itself and I messes the guy back I'm like dude my brain's gonna explode and he

wrote you just wrote the answer and I said what the fuck are you talking about he goes it's the brain the brain named itself someone came up with the word and the name brain and that came from their brain so what else is the brain fucking doing that we're not that we're not understanding you know the brain did that the brain decided that its name was going to be brain so ironic that we understand that yeah is that really settling in for anyone else brain decides your brain decides everything. You don't decide any of it. Correct.

We're just a vessel. Yeah, that's right. We are, and also our bones are wet, which is something that we all just can. Our bones are fucking soaking wet. You ever think about that? Our bones are just wet, dude. What do you mean they're wet? They have to be wet.

Why? They're inside our body. We've got fluids. We've got, like, blood. Like, our muscles are all wet inside. Yeah, I guess they're soaking. Our bones are soaking wet. Well, right?

I would say, yeah. You know what I'm saying, bro? Sorry to anybody who's trying to play golf. I would say generally the inside of the human body is wet. Dude, if your bones are dry inside your body, you're a dead person. You're just all, you're a, what is a bone is a saying? No, no, you made that out. Soke to the bone.

When you rain's really hard and it. But even then, that's actually wrong that freight because you're soaked already. You would think dry as a bone. Dry as a bone is like a thing, right? Dry as a bone is. But bones have to be wet, like the outside. The insides could be dry. Yeah, but there's a lot more.

Jay, can you search of bones are wet? Think about this. there's a lot more dead bones all around the earth that are dry. Right. Far more dry bones than wet bones. Like billions and billions and billions of them. Bones. Yeah, just dry bones from things that are dead. Like think about any time you see bones, it's when they're pulling a

Tyrannosaurus Rex out of the ground. And it's like, it's like, it's a song for him fucking, I think you should leave where he's like, they're going to come get our bones. Remember when he's like? Oh, yes, you do. I can't think of it. Oh, God. You guys ever seen a Tyrannosaurus Rex?

Like one of the, you know, the. I've never gone to the museum. I've never gone to the museum. museums. No natural history and all that shit. You're fucking awesome. I did the one of New York one time when my who was it my parents were in town? Maybe it's unbelievable. I got to get there.

They got like the whale there and shit. The blue whale. You wouldn't believe how big the blue whale is. Smithsonian, that's the one. It's extremely cool. Celsius is extremely cool too. We got to talk about them. Yeah, they are. Celsius helps you stay active and energized all day. So you're probably thinking about this. We're talking about you on My Spy and Twitter. How can I be more accomplished

and do really cool stuff like that? Celsius is going to help you. They're made with premium ingredients, zero sugar, seven essential vitamins, not like a traditional energy drink. They got delicious flavors including watermelon, grape, mango passion fruit, raspberry, assayi, peach mango, strawberry guava, and way more. The list goes on and on.

I'm going to say peach mango. Peach mango might be my favorite right now. It's a great team up of fruits. Peach and mango is great. It's nice when they can make something that's healthy and good for you and like give you more energy and all that, they make it taste good because a lot of the times when you do these things that are good for your body,

they taste like poo-poo. And it's just like they, it's everyone's more to the same of what we were just talking about where people just do things they don't want to do. I don't want to eat anything or drink anything that doesn't taste good. That's like something I'm not enjoying. So it ends up being good for you, that's an added bonus.

Celsius has just figured it out. Right. It's just tastes good and it's like putting you on the track to success when it comes to your health. It's nice that there's people out there working hard to create things that are delicious and good for you. I feel like that's hard to find. It is hard to find.

Celsius would like you to go over to celsius.com to find a store near you, or you can order online at Amazon, Walmart, or Target. Celsius live fit, live fit. Live fit. Oh, dude. That was on your show. I heard live fit. No, but I heard all about it.

Yeah. He just didn't get the pronunciation right. It tripped you up. Celsius live fit. It's just one of those words. It's live. You go either way. Oh, yeah, that was.

He was on the show. show, but he was like he, he lost connection, remember that? Yeah, that's right. So then we ended up telling him about it. That was that ad. Oh yeah, you guys closed out the ad. You put a bow on it. Live fit. I actually think I did that on this show, by the way. You guys didn't pick up on it. It was called Live Scientifically.

I said LiveScientifically.com. It's definitely a live. Yeah, it's two for you too. You're not great with that word getting it the right. Hard language. Do we, we don't like that. There's words that there's words that have two different pronunciations and meanings, do we? I mean, I don't, I don't. I mean, I don't minded, but only because I know.

Like I grew up, this is my first language. So it's very, it's far simpler for me. But it is if we're trying to have people learn the English language, it's tough for them. It's a tough barrier to entry. Yeah. And it just seems there's so many letter combinations. Why didn't they just come up with something else? Right?

Like, why wouldn't it just be? I'm going to go, like I'm going to go see that show live. Not like you're not going to see it live. You're going to see it literally. This is actually a perfect segue to something I want to talk about. Okay. You know how many songs there are on iTunes?

Ooh. I know the answer. Who who? Why do you know the answer? Oh, fuck you. You wanted to, we want to tell this story. So I believe now, I believe I've,

I've done this exercise before. Or I'm just overthinking it and trying to take the thunder away from the shock of this. But I think it's way lower than people would get. I actually remember the show that we did this We all did this. I don't know if we did all songs or songs on iTunes or Spotify or whatever, but I remember that we all made guesses.

And I think I was way off. Somebody was close. Some people were way off. I know the answer. You want me to tell you the answer? Yeah. 80 fucking million songs are on iTunes. Why do you want to know why I know the answer, Riggs?

Why? I can't believe we're actually talking about this. So, because this is one of the worst thing that's ever happened to me. Just a classic Frankie Borelli's fuck you in the face moment. We are at the Zeric classic, Trent and myself. I'm getting the story finally here. The last show we did, we were live from the Zurich, and everything was great, and hooting and hollering down at the golf course. We're having a great time.

This is a live hit, you guys? We had to go do a live hit, a live hit. Someone gave us the opportunity to go do some local media, and they're like, hey, you know, ESPN Baton Rouge wants to get you guys on the show at like 2 o'clock tomorrow. You guys have any time to do that? Absolutely. We would love to do that. We're waiting for the hit. We're walking over there, which I love calling it a hit, by the way.

It feels a lot more important. It's fucking awesome. I told many people we have a hit right now. So that's like top talent does hits. We go ahead and do ESPN Baton Rouge. With our guy Gus. With our guy Gus. Big radio name.

Big radio name. He's got a big radio voice. We're sitting there at the 17th tent, the 17th green tent at the Zura Classic. He's describing the weather and the golf course. And he's like, and after the break, we're going to talk about Patrick Mahalo. It's just like everything was very radio-y. Right. You realize, because we did one that day and then we did one the next day, how unpolished we are.

Those guys, they got it. They know how to transition. They know how to bring things up. They know how to, you know, set the scene and paint a picture. It's impressive what those guys do. So we're talking. He brings us on the show. Trent and Frankie's got it all scribbled down his notebook.

He's very professional. You know, we're on, I want to remind you that we're on ESPN Baton Rouge is what I believe it was called, right? It's a local Louisiana, New Orleans specific radio show. All right. Zerat Classic has walkout songs. So I think one of the bits he wanted to do was, oh no. So like, you know, Zer classics here. It's a fun tournament.

What song would you come out to, Frankie? Remember, this is live radio. And I, an idiot, not understanding what was happening in my world. And I go, you know, I'd probably come out to something, you know, like old school rock and roll. I don't know, like, Led Zeppelin when the levy breaks. And he goes, whoa, definitely not down here. you know that's just not a song you want to play down here Trent what about you yeah moved on and immediately I was like oh my fucking God

Frankie got as red as you can look now now now think about this too think about this too you have to do 15 minutes right first all we got to do a few more minutes right and and one of the one of the things that frankie and I had talked about before we went on was I think we said let's just not let us let this get away from us in any way because you just don't want it to you know we're down there we're representing the barstville sports book. Like you just kind of want to, you just want to get in, get out, promote. What you play Bob Dylan's Hurricane? Let's play that. Dude. So,

so, so, so, so. Riggs are 80 million songs. And I love music. I could have thought of any song in the fucking world. And I was like, oh, let me pick something with a cool intro. You know, John Bonap. Do, do, dot, that's. I'm like, I'm going to fucking, I'm going to

fucking, I'm going to nail this answer. And this guy, Gus is going to love it because it's old school. It's Led Zepplin. I'm on radio. People are going to tweet at me. Like, I fucking love that. And I picked when the levy breaks. the only song in the world about like too much water coming through a city levy breaking which is exactly what happened in New Orleans dude it's exactly what happened and I want to apologize to every single person that I've been affected by Hurricane

Katrina and all these other I can't believe it got away from me at this level yeah that I have to now apologize to the state of Louisiana and the city of New Orleans but I just need to come out and say that I'm an idiot that didn't understand what was happening we listen to it on the drive in listen to it on the drive in and I was talking like about the history of the song they recorded it in this like hallway and like the way that they recorded they had the mics hanging from the ceiling and if you listen to when the levy breaks you can hear the drums of john bottom echoing through the stairwell i fucking love that song i'm obsessed with it is strent like are you in this moment realizing what's happening oh i immediately do when dude the guy gus said not in this city like pal and i was like boy so they moved on to me and i was like something low wang he's a he's new orleans guy and i was just trying to like play to the crowd to the people who are now at frankie's twitter like he's like he's like he's little way and i was like he's new orleans guy and i was nervous to the people who are now at frankie's door like he's Forks. Like, and listen, like, it obviously was. It was an honest mistake.

We walked. So we walked. That was on the 17th green. So then we walked from the 17th green back to the ninth green where the Barstall Sportsbook lounge was the whole time. Frank is like, well, my life's over. It's over. Everything's done.

So pack it up. Everything we've ever tried to do is. The only reason why we're even talking about it now and like the fact that we're able to like, like I wanted to scrub it from the internet. It was a fucking honest mistake. We talked to Mincy about it. The king of the south. The guy fucking lives in Louisiana.

he's like literally was born there. He was saying that like in one of the recovery concerts, like one of the more all time moments in New Orleans history is like a cover band or someone like played that song to like to reopen a bar. To reopen like one of the legendary bars like the levee. So like it's almost like a badass moment of like that song like reminds people of like Okay. Like all right.

Resiliency recovery. Yeah. Like we were thinking persevered. Yeah. All right. That's what you meant. I needed that. I needed that.

When he said it when we were walking back, We thought we thought that song hadn't been played since. We were just like, that's a no-no. Yeah, Frankie just tweets out the video of that cover band every day now. God, yeah. Just like, you know, and Led Zepp was one of my favorite bands of all time. And it's just like, I don't know why that was in my head. I don't know why we listened to it on the way to the golf course.

I don't know why you're your brain trying to sabotage you again. Definitely. Something going on. There's something to Frankie's life. And we talked about this too. It's just never easy for him. It just isn't easy, man. We're eating lunch today.

We're in a delicious macaroni salad. And he's throwing it all away. And he just sped. build the macaroni salad on the front of him. It's just like, come on, man. A lot of people listening to Frankke's life is incredibly easy. And I would like argue that, yeah, I have an easier life than most people. I'm just saying that I make something that should be awesome and easy and simple and great

until like the most ridiculous turmoil tornado of all time. Yeah, walk-up music is a layup. It's a law. It's a softball. Dude, I could have said fucking any, I could have said 79,99,999,999 different songs. Yep. You said the one that got you potentially in a real. so yeah I want to apologize

but fuck I didn't end up being a big deal he did not care like Gus No he didn't get He was like no not down here We like to like Like I like to take things to the next level Whenever something happens to me

I'm like oh every like I was picturing Like people showing out to Borrelli's like closing the doors Like I was just like all right It's just amazing that it's almost impossible to say a bad answer there People can rip off of anything that you say Oh yeah this actually there's this story cool and that one he I mean he put up a stop sign

he shut it down wow that's the story and it was the end of the Zarek classic and you know we had a great time there aside from that that was a tough moment we had we talked about a lot of it

on the last show we did but we just hung out what happened since we got off the last show at the Zerick oh we no we just hung out at the sports book lounge for the most part

yeah thank you to everyone that came there they signed up with the code Zerick I don't know if that's still live I'm sure it's not Zirk 22 and they got $100 cash bonus and a thousand-dollar free bet The Chill Cali Bros won the event Chill Cali Bros. Yep, did you see they were in sync?

Every time. Not someone's winning that thing. They're in sync when it comes to like taking their club from their bag into their other hand. They do the same thing, same time. That was nuts. Danoshoffley and Patrick Cantlay,

those two guys are really good golfers. It's insane that we didn't put any money on them. Every time someone wins a golf tournament, you're like, why didn't I put money on that person? That's how it's an obvious person. The real bad one was Scotty Shuffler. Yeah, that's the master. How did we not?

Shout to hang. Henry Lockwood. He made like $4,000. I'm just betting on Scott, he didn't win the next. He's the thing is every time you pick him, oh, where to go out on a limb? It's like, well, I think they're going to win. I think I'm done caring about people saying, like,

oh, that was like a chalk pick. It's like, yeah, I'm just going to keep winning. Yeah, like, that's like how it works. He's eight to one. Imagine in a normal, like, NBA game. If you took a team that was eight to one to lose. Like, what do you talk to right? That brings up a different discussion when it comes to gambling.

We all have to have a conversation when it comes to our next major is the PGA championship. We're going to be gambling. We're probably going to be in Arizona, I believe. We're going to announce all that stuff. After we do the Tulsa Tango, is that still, is that sold out? Sold out quickly. We'll be there, yeah. So we'll be on site from, I believe, Sunday night until Thursday night.

And then we're going to go to Arizona so we can gamble because once Friday kicks off on a tournament, we can't get a lot out of it. So when we're talking about gambling, when it comes to the PGA championship, we just did the master's, we got slaughtered responsibly. And now we have a chance to, like, get back on it. and we're going to do things the right way this time. These bets that we were making were out of hand when it comes to the odds. We're like,

the only thing we're talking about is like a guy to win the ninth hole for plus 750 when like everyone else is drawing the hole because it's an easy part three that everyone's either making it too. Like we have to start getting futures in there. Like when I look back on my week of the masters, the fact that I didn't take all the money that I put on Tiger Woods hit Farrow. ways and greens. If I,

why didn't I just sprinkle that on all these guys to finish top 10 and win? I wish I could go back in time and just smack myself across the face. Yeah, but it's really fun. It is fun. But you know what else is fun? As on Sunday when you have like seven guys to potentially win the fucking major and you got like a decent chunk of change on them at like plus 1,800 because we didn't fucking

do it. Yeah, but is that guy going to hit the fair way or not? It's just not a successful way. Just like he just said, like when you think about a teen that's 8 to 1, it's insane. Like you'd never bet that. like we were going crazy with that man tiger was to miss the fairway at one point was like plus 200 and we weren't betting it we were betting minus 450 to hit the fairway and he was missing every single one of them

we need to be better on our better he missed every single fairway it's also you're it's just not easy to just pick the winner every turn no but like really tough go back and like incredibly hard but like we could at least have like some action on sunda you know that like out of six or seven guys you're going to pick someone that's got a chance you are i do you don't think so i do six or seven guys though, then you start to like, I mean, then it's not that different. You're kind of giving away the odds by picking six or seven guys. Yeah, I do need to make. It doesn't all need to be winners.

I do. Yeah, top tens and top fives are something that I really need to start looking at. We have to. Yeah. Because you do, you look at a leaderboard for the most part, not for the most part part, but pretty consistently, it's similar names up at the top. Not always the same. Our boys, uh, Scott Brown and Kevin Kisner made a nine on a part three.

That was our part three. It was brutal. That's a part three that I stuck at the five and a half feet, not that hard of a whole for being honest. So Kisner, Piedemilar guy. We're wearing Piedemolar. Looking very, very good right now. With warmer weather on the way, it's time to take a look at your shorts.

This is true. Jake Bass has these shorts on, I believe. While your golf shorts are perfectly capable of taking you to the course of a clubhouse, sometimes you need a more casual approach. They've crafted, handcrafted. They've got dock shorts. Okay. Once again, our friends of Pian Malar have crafted the perfect short for your summer trips.

Their new dog shorts made from a lightweight, durable stretch rip. stop fabric. You ever heard of a rip stop fabric? No. Wow, that sounds nice. And features an elastic waist for all day comfort. I love those, actually. It's nice, it's perfect for a little more casual. The elastic waist? I'll tell you this. All day comfort? It's well documented

how Frankie and I feel about shorts, but if I am ever going to get into the shorts game, I'm going with Peter Malar no matter what. They, I mean, they just, they have the best stuff across the board. Uh, one of our one of our from the galleries, which is actually from a guy who asked if during the fixing Frankie series, Frankie will work on his insecurities about wearing shorts in the golf course.

Maybe. Maybe Dr. Brett McCabe, spelled with an H, B-H-R-E-T-T-T, will help me in all aspects of life. Maybe he'll be able to get me to figure out B-H-R-E-T-T-T. Brett. B-R-R-R-R-R-E. B-R-R-T. I think he's going to open up my mind to just accepting a lot more things in my life.

I won't be so fucking neurotic and psychotic and quixotic and quix. quick to always be so negative. Do you know? I'm very negative about my kneecaps. You don't. Soft. Oh, I don't think so. Brett.

Bro, the public hasn't seen my legs in years. If there is a... Not that long ago you wore them. I can't remember what it was for, but you appeared with shorts. That must have been a mistake. You wore... This is going to sound weird. You wore shorts to my hotel room a couple years ago.

I did. I did do that. That's weird. That happened. That would happen. Then you shaved your face with my electric razor. Then you left. Each short, his garment died for a unique.

Vintage look. This one says PG, by the way. This ad reads PG. Head over to Piedemar.com slash Foreplay to shop the entire line and use code for complimentary shipping. They just all their gear is the best. We know that. Their pants is smooth and comfortable as they get.

Their shorts, these dark shorts, amazing. Their hoodies, Trent's wearing a lava wash hoodie right now. I love these hoodies. I've got this parcel classic one now and I was like, As soon as I got here, I was like, where the hoodies at? I got to wear one of these things. They're great. Where those hoodies at?

Okay. A couple of things to get to a logistics front. The Scramble videos versus Bob does sports crew is doing numbies. Crushing. Crushing. People love it. Good lighthearted, fun, upbeat, hang. You know, I feel like that video.

Some of the touring pro ones are really cool because they, of course, get it. We got a cart going backwards. It's okay, Lisa. It's okay, Lisa. Live events. said just, you know, she had to, you know, she's working. She's working. She's grinding. Yeah. Well, Vince Lisa crush it.

You know, the PGA tour videos, the scrambles against those guys and girls are obviously great because it sheds light on to their personalities. It gets better. But they get a little bit competitive and intense. And we want to win. Their egos are on the line. Their professionals is what they do for a living. They want to lose. And not to say that this wasn't competitive

because it obviously was. It came down to the wire. But this was much more like and a Saturday with your crew that I think people can really relate to just a bunch of fun loving people enjoying life out there slapping it around graduating each other but also sending some daggers to the other team

a little bit of chirping, a little bit of shit talking there was just a lot of fun had I think people were liking that video. Yeah, they are as good as a crew as you're ever going to find. I mean, they were at the Yankee game the other day and my buddies were around them like Fat Perez is just owning owning the bar outside Yankee Stadium.

I'm just like, he's just a cultivating mass. Is that what I want to say? Is that what he is? You know, he's just something that you just can't keep your eyes off. Yeah. And I love them, man. And I've talked very highly about Bob and that crew, Joey Coldcuts, and everything about them.

They're just amazing. I think at one point, I got a lot of tweets and like DMs about, I think at one point in the video, I said that we were playing down to our competition to our crew. And I think it was coming off of this fact that that was our second loss in a row. And I'm like trying to figure out why the four man scramble is scrambling with all these losses. Why can we figure it out? I don't ever want anyone to think that I, I mean, Bob does sports is a massive, massive rocket ship that is flying to the moon with no one stopping them. I've been a fan of Robbie Berger since the second I saw him on fucking Snapchat seven years ago.

I mean, well, I think people were mostly saying, thinking that you were saying we're playing down to our competition like they're like we're good at golf. and they stink when in reality, as we all know, they're clearly not as good as a PGA Tour Pro, which is probably a salt up. But they also have the best golfer in the group. Phep Perez played collegiate golf. Studd. He's the best handicapped and a very, very good player.

So, yes. There's been a change of like, it's in our confidence. Like we are now a team that's lost two in a row. Yeah. So like for us, it's like, we beat fucking Pat Perez. We beat fucking Joel Damon. We beat Kevin Kisner.

It's like, all right. the country stars. We beat the country stars. We beat the country stars. Daniel Kang. Like, all right, something's happening

to the four-man scramble where we're not like winning matches anymore. We just fucking lost the max homo. We're losing to fucking Fat Perez. It's like, like, and Fat Perez is a problem.

He's a fucking problem. That guy. He's a bad man. He doesn't eat food. It's right. He does not eat food. He just drinks a keg worth of beer. Goes out to the hole.

He can barely put the ball in the tea. Legitimately, there's a clip on, on Barstlesport. on foreplay where he can't get the ball in the tea and he's like oh like one of these days like i'm just like i'm going to get this ball in the t gets it on and ropes one right down the middle doesn't even look at the ball it's a seed right down the fucking center of the fairway he is a problem i will say a they also hit a lot of long putts and i rewatch that video that's insane yeah i know

a lot too robbie berg was clutch uh that playing a round of golf and then having a full dinner with that crew is i think the most fun day you can have a hundred percent dude it's It was the hardest and most I think I'd laughed in a single day in my life. And it's far and away the most messages I've gotten from people in my circle of friends. Because we've all known Robbie for so long that like they were so excited to see that. Like we play with fucking Rory Macquarie and like I won't hear that much from like low front. Like at that point like everyone's become numb to that shit like in my circle. They're like, our frank is just fucking playing with Roy Macra.

It's insane. But Robbie Berger was a different because they're genuinely fans of his content. And like to be out for us to be in his content was such a. like, whoa, because I watch every single one of his videos and now to be in one of them. It was like, cool. Like, I love watching him do his thing. And he also, the same person on camera as he is off camera. Yeah, I agree that.

Same voice, same mannerism, same like he's just the nicest guy ever. Great crew. We got to keep doing those things. We got a million messages about the good, good guys. And those guys are fucking good at golf. I've had the idea. What do you guys think about this? Oh, wow.

I've had the idea. Yeah. It's a live idea. It's a live idea. And this is what happened when we first came up. with a scramble idea we did a live idea what do we think about what do we what do we what do we what do we think about if we did a night with the good good guys we go wherever we go to a golf course the night before we have a dinner and we do a draft like you do at like a buddies golf trip we're like riggs is

the captain and one of theirs guys is the captain and you guys decide on and we like mix and match the teams and play from there what do you guys think because here's the reason why you're coming up but that idea is because they would crush us otherwise. They're four like collegiate, incredible golfers, I'm pretty sure. And I have seen the, I have seen responses like that to our videos where it's like,

people are like, all the good, good guys would crush these guys. Like, we don't realize that. Correct. We know. We know.

Play was never built as a YouTube channel or a podcast or a brand, admitting that we're like trying to make people or convince people that we are the best golfers in the planet. No. That has never once been it. So like, I think people get mad when we're not better. I got a message like,

Why do you suck a golf? And I was like, because I like, we're allowed to. Well, yeah, I get those are good. You know, I just. Why do you suck it? Like, I don't know. I just get confused when people. I don't know.

I don't know. What's the answer? We don't have to be good. I'm not playing in any tournament. I don't have to be good at anything. Yeah, the only thing I don't understand is when people tell us that like we would get killed by good good. Like, they're breaking news to us. Correct.

We know. I said correct every single time. Yeah, yeah. No, I also would lose to my buddy fucking Chris Betty. Like I would lose to all my buddies that I would better golf than me. So. Well, there's also those same people will, you know, they'll tweet at Max Homa and be like, how come you suck at golf this week?

Because they had like 25 bucks on him to win the tournament. And it's like, Max Homa is trying his best all year long to be the best golfer in the world. And like, he's really good. He's won a bunch of BGA tournaments. But he's like, whatever, 28th in the world. And he's like, no, yeah, right now, like, there's a couple people that are like better than I am. Then, okay, a week to week, like, I might lose to them. Now, we're clearly on a different scale.

but like we're not like we're not really good at golf clearly we post videos all the time we'd like to be better but we also to your boyfriend we don't get paid to be good at golf we get paid based on creating content around golf that people actually want to watch so like that has nothing to do like if you play collegiate golf and are really good you aren't just instantly a giant like youtube or social media presence in the world of golf so who cares if you're just good at golf unless you're really really good and that's for like a hundred people with that's And it's crazy that we have to explain our content as if like we're already just do look at what we're doing and that is what we're doing. We don't have to like explain exactly what our brand is but like breaking 100 is what four play is. Like good good has their videos where they go out and they shoot like a million under par and they make hole in ones from par fours

and they drill the fucking dries as far as they possibly can. Like that's what they do. We do like straight up video against them wouldn't I don't think it would be compelling. We could bend the knee like sure. We would just play them. We'll just like lose like fine. Yeah, we just lose.

I don't hate the idea of like a draft, but then I think like, even if we split cut, then it'd be like, first people to get draft, they're just going to be their guys. So then I don't know. So they're just the best at golf.

But, and I hear, I don't, I honestly don't know enough about them to know what would be the most compelling. But if we, one thing that I know is I think they're pretty, they're younger and I think a lot more clean than we are. Super clean.

And they also do like half a million views every day. They crush. Like I don't know if our, I can't talk about common. at the waste management, Phoenix Open, they were very nice. And other than that, I don't really know what I'm talking about other than that they put sick tracers on some of their videos. And they got that whole one that one time on a portfolio. And I've heard that they're pretty clean that like if you're like cursing and saying crazy shit on their show that's like not how they roll.

Well, then like they'd have to come on our channel then or something because like I'm always going to talk about my ball sack and shit. Like that's just what's going to happen. No, I guess the point of this is that we see people saying that we should play them. We're just trying to Maybe they have ideas for us And I know they like to do like 10 minute videos They're very YouTubey We're just

We didn't know anything that we were going to do Try it bigger on YouTube Play has always just done things To just keep doing them We never had like an agenda to do anything It just kind of rolls Like Riggs gets an email We go to a golf course

And we cover an event Like fucking we go meet this guy And Joel Damon says Why don't you come to Mason play So we don't have like an agenda Like they've had an agenda To be really big YouTubers And they're really successful at it

So if we can learn something from them absolutely I would do that in a heartbeat but they also have a different brand than us so let's figure out a way to make it like an actual competitive match because we're already saying like I mean maybe we're wrong maybe we could keep maybe we could compete with them like

Riggs always made the point like we're athletes we can which is a joke we're not we can like figure out how to maybe get the ball in the hole at some I do feel that way like we are men with bodies and can like swing stuff like so are they why don't we just like try to beat them but they're just way better than we are that's different

elite golfers in a scramble is tough. Like they'd go 14 under, 15 under. And like, but maybe they wouldn't. I don't know. Maybe I'm talking on my ass. Maybe people know more than we do. I don't watch all their videos. I've seen a lot of their stuff and they're really good, really good. It'd be like playing four just like, I'd say they're the ones that we get the most. People say we should do something with them. Yeah. By far. No doubt. Come up to creative format because I don't think us first them is as compelling as people want it to be because I think we would just lose. They've also been like more open to doing stuff with like I've seen them like comment on our videos before from their chat.

They do stuff with Bob. They've done stuff with Bob all the time. Like they just seem like they're not like some of these other guys that I think they're too cool for school. Like we're just like absolutely I'll do it with them. Yeah. So that's an open, that's an open, not an invitation because like they're probably ones that should be inviting us on YouTube. They're fucking massive. Huge.

But I think I'm open to it. I don't know about you guys. I want to do it. Yeah. I'm open to it, Frankie. So let's go do it. We're now. We're like the collab guys all of sudden.

Well, I think you do one and then you kind of like roll into the next one. I think, and I think there's like a, there's a good, um, connection between like Bob and those guys. Like, if I, if I didn't see Bob doing so much stuff with them, I would probably tell them to just, like, keep doing their thing. We'll do our thing. I guess I never, I didn't realize before the people would be as ecstatic about seeing two of their favorite content people or groups in the same content videos. Someone said that when they watched us and Rob and Robbie Berger, it was like when, um, the sweet life of Zach and Cody like mashed up with Hannah Montana. and it was like or was it I Carly

and Sweet Life is Zach and Cody I don't know maybe it was Hannah No I think it was Hannah Montana And the Sweet Life is Zach Cody Whatever they all like intermingled On one show and it was like oh shit That's kind of how Yeah I mean after seeing the reaction that's

That's way more the excitement Of it and the people being like I can't believe I'm watching all these people In the same video This is really cool because I watch both of their bullshit All the time and I knew it would be cool and really funny but I didn't know people would be almost like

mind blown wow it's finally coming together I can't believe they're in the same world like they're operating in the same world which again is weird for us because we don't think of it that way or just call yeah whatever like we respond to emails or text and trying to network with people who come up with fun interesting shit sometimes it does great sometimes it doesn't I wonder how it's going to work because like I think they're just a much bigger

production than like Bob does sports is still so like early days barstool where he's just like rolling around with this crew and like a little bit of like one camera guy like jet will like edit their stuff on a plane and like just like I'd forgotten the jet on the first tee how much we were trying to rattle just like like there's so much more like let's just like make really funny content however it comes that comes out I feel like good good's gonna have like a million like kind of like our production so that'll be a discussion on like how the hell we're gonna get it done because they do stuff's completely different than what we do okay they're like zoomed in cameras and like 10 minute videos and like quick laugh and like you've seen them Jake it's totally different like dude they're they're Iceland and we're the mighty ducks yeah they're like clean and professional totally really good yeah and we're just a collection of clown characters that are like we start our

barreled our way through life trying to figure it out we start some videos with Trent getting like stretched out on the floor like his belly hanging out of his stuff like fucking pants and they start their video being like it's just the world like they know what colors work on their fucking thumbnails they know everything They're like Mr. Beast. Like I listen to him on fucking Rogan, and he was talking about how many things go into how you get clicks on videos, and they crush it.

Yeah. It's different styles. And obviously, they're good, good, super successful. So they both work. Yeah. I'd be interested to see them put us into their world a little bit. That would be kind of fun. You know what I mean?

Yeah. Teach us how to be YouTubers. Yeah. I think that might be fascinating. I don't know. like, I don't know. Good, good teaches for play had to get more views.

Coming to you soon on forplay. I don't know. It'd be interesting, I feel like. I want to play them though. I'd be like, I think they're good guys. You know, like breaking bad gets pulled into a sitcom world. Right.

Like you'd have to do it like the crowd laughing. Yeah. They did that. Well, I guess. Didn't a show do that? Like Wanda Vision or something. Like Wanda Vision? Obviously something like that.

And then another show did that as well. Where it was like a drama then got. written as a sitcom and they did one episode like that. I wish I could remember. Obviously, Wanda Vision is the one people are thinking of, but there's another one where it's like that too. But yeah, that would, that'd be very interesting. Jesus, take the wheel.

You guys, you tell us what you're doing. And then they come to us and we teach them how to swear. Do they do a podcast? They used to have one or they didn't? I'd like to know, like, how they're going to respond to this. How do we reach out? Do we have a good at Gmail? I'd also,

yeah, we'll DM. I'd also like, Clay. I wasn't comparing us to Breaking Badass just the first one that came to my mind. Brin' bad, man. It's a great show. Better call Saul. I still haven't watched the first episode.

Is that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Power Rangers? They did a collab. They probably did. Did they? Is that what you're seeing? I think that's a bad. I think that's a badger's a guy. I used to love the Power Rangers, man.

I used to fucking love the Power Rangers. Yeah, me too. X-Piles and Cops. X-Piles and Cops. No, I'm thinking of a show. No, I'm not even talking about a crossover episode. I'm saying that a show that like Breaking Bad, they wrote it into a sitcom format.

So it was like, it was, like it was it was just a completely different thing. Well, don't you keep thinking about that show, Trent? I'm going to try. I'm going to start thinking about Myrtle Beach South Carolina, which is where we're going later this year. We've been already this year, but it's the Gulf Capital, the world.

That thing's really loud. It's going to get louder. No, it's going to be far away still. We're fine. Somebody was, again, people are working here. The Barstle classic and they're moving it. Cooler around. Dude, we have a concert here at the Barstead tonight? Like drum set and everything. You see what's going on behind you? Yeah, it's going to be awesome. looks like slash.

He's wearing a fucking leather vest, a top hat. Yeah, we're in Nashville, baby. Dude, this is going to be crazy. Am I going to play drums tonight? Myrtle Beach, South Carolina has the golf capital of world. More than 70 courses, sandy white beaches, and endless off-the-course entertainment options. There's a golf course for everyone.

really in hawaii yeah tiger woods likes to what dude what yeah when i right after It's such a funny trap experience. Like in Traskol? From Iowa went spear fishing in Hawaii. You go under. You can accept that? You go underwater. Was that a dream?

No. No, that was a fever dream. No, no, no. I did it. You, you, um, you had to get there. Underwater spear fishing too. So you, there's an elastic band on the end of the spear and you wrap it around your arm and you use it as like a, so it pulls like a rubber band.

And then when you see a fish, you let it go. Activity? So you're like, like, Castaway. But he does it above water. This was underwater. I did very poorly, as people would imagine, but it's something that I tried.

Your Hawaii experience makes me very, very, like, intrigued. It's probably the best experience in my life. I was there for two weeks. Wow. Well, you know what other, you know what's just as good of an experience? Myrtle Beach. Myrtle Beach.

Tuesday, so we obviously talked about the Bob does sports video. Go check that one out. If you have not yet, please.

And then Tuesday, we have Kawamor Kawa on our YouTube channel, which is tonight. People are, I forget what day it is, Dude, he's on the road for way too long. Colin War Cowan. We basically on a par five, uh, keep walking him back to see how far back he can reach a par five from.

And he takes it incredibly seriously. Yeah, he does. And is roasting three woods from many, many yards away. Yeah. It's like, let's keep going. Let's keep going. It's a quicker video that we've been putting out. Like we have like,

we just put out the Bob Dust Force. It was a movie. It was two hours and six minutes. Shout out to fucking Brendan Jones. He edited a movie. It's a movie. Two hours and six minutes. This is a movie.

This one's a little bit of a quicker one, I think, right? So it's like 10 or 15 minutes. Okay. And I just think people are going to really like the idea of like Colin Morikawa trying to achieve something that like we basically told me couldn't. And it really drives him crazy. It's something that's going to blow your mind. It's just really, it's cool to see a guy at Colin like take his time to like show off how

talent that he really is and something that we as the average golfer love to see. We love the long ball. Chicks love the long ball. And like, we just were like, could you hit this green? He's like, oh, fuck, I don't know. And like we did that for fucking 15 minutes. And it was really cool. His approach to it makes the video where he gets into it.

He's super competitive. We keep telling him that we don't think he can do it. And then he just wants to try it. So that's what makes it. He is so competitive and so driven. Watching a guy like that try to do something that's really, really, really hard is very entertaining. I mean, look, he, think about you as the golfer out there. You are in Florida.

It's flat. you're at sea level flat approach shot it's not downhill or anything like that and you've got how many yards out in a part five in the fairway with a metal wood in your hand you know can you realistically be like it's worth it for me to go for this green it's usually not that far out for a lot of people 240 250 maybe with your three wood something like that we took him way back farther than that and watched him rip three woods at a grain seeing if he could hit this green and he pulled off some amazing shit and he was really into it to the point of we're like all right all right, yeah, that was fun, but like, we're going to move on to the next thing now.

And he's like, give me another one. Let me push him over 300 at one point. Well over 300. So that's a good tease. We started him at like, did we start him at 300? We started at 300. So that's where you should. That's what's going to get the clicks.

Like, this isn't just hit the green from 225 out. No. We started Kalamorakaa out at 300 yards instead hit this green. That's where we started him. So wait until you see the way that he can hit these fucking three woods. It's insane how much torque. and force he can put in while also hitting the ball

really straight at a target it's nuts he also gave me a sound editing too I don't know if he I don't know if that's in the video he gave me a little next video oh that's a little next video

he gave him a little bit calomark how it gives me sour patch kids which is basically Trent Ryan porn yeah I mean he didn't realize what he was doing I think at that time thinking back I was trying to like cut down on sugar which is something I should be doing all the time

but at that specific time how has that been going recently just I mean I saw you at the hotel Come on talk about that Which one? Oh my God, which one? New Orleans, dude I saw the guy in the front desk And he had to call

Who owns Starbucks? Is it like an Ibisco? Who owns Starbursts? I don't know He got on the phone with headquarters We need a fucking truck to come here Because Trent Ryan just came through They didn't have Sower Patch kids

So I needed something fruity and sugary And I just got a ton of Starbursts It's really good Really good You crack your teeth on Starbursts So they're fucking firm It depends on what you get Hopefully they're soft

Here's an important question. Okay. What's your favorite color? I think there's a pretty universal number one. Really? Yeah. I don't think that's... All right, all right.

Oh, no, you're not going to like mine, dude. I think you're going to... I think me and Trent are the same. Oh, I actually don't know. Now I'm nervous. Because I've... Okay. I think there's a universe...

One, two, three. Pink. We both said pink. I think it's red. I knew it was red. I knew it was red. I thought you were going to say red. You want to know my two favorites, yellow and pink.

Yellow is underrated. Really underrated. They're all good, but I think pink's my favorite. Orange is bottom. But if we were playing like the dozen, I don't know that I would have said pink. I would have said red, probably. Yeah, red's just a more bold flavor that people definitely like think that that pops the most. Red, yellow, pink orange.

Pink yellow, orange, red. Yeah, dude. Yeah. Red tastes like, it tastes really good, but it's the, most close it's it's it's it's the closest to cough syrup to me like all that cherry flavor every time i have something cherry it to me it tastes like cough syrup i love it i love a good artificial cherry flavor only cherry coke for me i just don't like cherry and everything else i had a tough time when we went to the traverse city michigan uh in michigan it's a cherry capital

i just had a tough time in that city everything was cherry i don't remember what we're talking about but yeah starbursts are good if they could come out with a grape one i'd love that i don't like great. You wouldn't like a purple starburst? No. Did they ever invent that? We got to talk about Brandon Walker's golf swing. Amazing. Amazing, but also a cheat code. He hit at night. Don't disagree with any of that. I'm not saying he was hitting him 300 yards or two.

I don't even know how far those things are actually going. But what I'm saying is comparative to how you would think of the lummix and him just showing up on the range, seemingly, with out being on a driving range, probably in like years. Three in a row. And just piping three in a row with like no back swing, no, or no practice swings, no glove, no anything. And even if he, there's a little like over the top, you get all these like losers on Twitter, which, you know, that's a whole other story.

And Elon Moss bought it. So hopefully those people get deleted. But the fact that his action just looked like good. Like he was bringing it back to a nice position. Do you really turn on it? Turned on a good. The torque was impressive. Just looked incredible.

It got, it says like two to three million views on Twitter. It's absolutely insane. Of him just pounding three. It is like mesmerizing. Dude, this is the, um, is it like Kawasaki is Kaumara, Kalamura, who I follow him on Instagram. The Kaw swing. Like any ball hit at night, you see this on fucking all these, um, viral golf accounts. Like you'll see some girl in high heels will like be at the Vegas top golf and she'll hit a ball and it looks like it went on.

like literally into outer space and like that's the popular one bro there is such a cheat code when hitting balls at night I know this because I went and did this for like a week straight with my iron you were really wrong at my self because I just wanted to see what you were playing into the cheat code too big time I would only go to the range at night and I'd only take videos

from the bottom looking up the balls look like they went out of space out into outer space and like it just is mesmerizing it's an amazing time to hit golf balls and video it because well the video that you have and no disrespect to him is the one of your dad.

I have one of my dad where it just looks like my dad hits one 400 yards. My dad can't hit it over 150 yards. He can't. Like you just can't get the ball in the air. So it's like, dude, I'm not taking anything away from Brandon Walker. I just know that like the mesmerizing part of it of like, holy shit, these things are going so far is because it disappears. You can see the ball flight where you can't during the day. His action was nice.

Really good. He just looked good. Yeah. He brought it back to a good position at the top. It just aesthetically looked good. You know, like Frankie on our show has like the most aesthetically pleasing swing. for sure these screens looks good

part of that's left you which another cheat code but him like it just looked good and him mashing him him just being like smashed smashed he's smashed

he's in three row dude Brandon fucking Walker when he does anything too Brandon fucking Walker went to like the WWE and was like fucking announced

like Brandon Walker anytime he enters a new realm kind of like dominates it a little bit like he's just a dominating force like he stepped up to the fucking T and hit absolute

piss missiles right in our face got three million views Dave said that like we're all losers because we play the game a lot more than Brandon Walker. He called Riggs a loser and like that's just the world. That's the brand of fucking Walker world. Like Brandon fucking Walker is Brandon fucking Walker. He is man. You know?

Do you see the way he talks to some of these wrestlers? Like he has like he's the one that gives them the fucking talk. He's Brandon fucking Walker. There's no denying that. That's a great video. That video we had to address it. We've also got Greg Norman. So Greg Norman is trying to play in the British Open.

the Open Championship. He said, I think I can still get in, who last played the Open in 2009 at Turnberry. It's the 150th. I'm a past champion. I love St. Andrews. If there's a moment in time that I would consider going back and teeing off one last time, maybe this is it. Now, again, Norman

saying, like, oh, yeah, this is the 150th, and it's at St. Andrews, so that's why I want to play. I mean, you want to play because you're the CEO of this extremely controversial live investments, golf league. Every time we talk about Greg Norman, there is just so, much subtext around everything. Just nothing is quite what it seems.

Maybe he believes those things that he's saying. But I saw some people calling this a publicity stunt. That's kind of what it is. Obviously, one he hasn't, like, he opens at an awesome venue and there's always these like, bro, it's, it's 150. It's a same Andrews, dude. There's a million different. Oh, whoa.

This bird almost just took my head off. It's just a bird. I don't think it came even a club. No, no, no, it was. Oh, I didn't see. I couldn't see it. Like way over there. No, it was coming right here and made a dart.

Part of me, no, I don't know. This, this whole, everything with Greg Norman is just, it's always just coated in something. And it's never, whatever he's saying is never fully what's going on, ever. It's also the CEO of a company. So, like, he's got to like, he's like doing CEO things. Like, he's just trying to, you know what I mean? He's trying to make noise. He's never going to be transparent about that stuff.

He's just fucking trying to make noise. That's just what Greg Nore. Yeah, but it just annoys me that he's not just transparent, especially in today's world. People, transparency is more. People have direct line of communication through social media and everything else. And he's just kind of like blatantly being, like misleading. You're not playing because of San Andrews.

Like they go to San Andrews all the time. It's not like that. And last time you played 2009, like they've been to San Andrews like, what, twice since then? So it's like you didn't try to play every time because it was San Andrews because it's the 150th. You were clearly playing to try to drive. more attention to your whole thing. Why can't you just say that? That makes people like not.

Like that makes people turned off by you and you're blatantly fucking lying. How does he get into the open? He has to submit an exemption, you know, request. And the RNA essentially said, By the way, before you read that, this is what I love most about situations like this is it puts a governing body like the RNA in a position where they have to say no in very like

specific language and sometimes they're dicks about it. The RNA said, the entry terms and conditions for the open stipulate that a champion must be aged 60 or under or have won the championship in the previous 10 years to be exempt from qualifying. That remains

the case for the 150th Open and we have no plans for any additional exemptions. You're right. They just said no in 30 words or whatever that was. Yeah. They're like no. So it is Greg Norman have to try and qualify with his game? That would be the only way he could get in. I doubt he's going to go try to do that.

When he says, and I don't know like he might have already. Does he mean like, doesn't he say something along those lines that he feels like he can get in? Is he saying that based off his game or based off of like his connections? No, I think he's saying that based off. Like he's saying they should let me play. He's already made noise with the attempt. Yeah. Which is the goal.

It's like when all these like celebrities run for president. for that first week. Like Kanye did it, right? And you're just like, obviously not going to be the president, but like now we're talking about you. Donald Trump. Worked one time. Yeah.

It worked out one time. And he became the president. Everybody thought it was that and then it was that he was president. That's true. Norman can say, I think I can still get in. It's the 150th. I'm a past open champion. I love San Andrew.

So I think he was saying I can get in because of these reasons. Like, they should let me in is what I think. I don't think he's going to try to qualify. That would be like embarrassing. He wouldn't be able to really do it. I don't think. And like, he just wants to show up and clearly play. And then they also announced today that the championship will be at Trump National, Dural, Miami, will be the host of the season ending team championship set for October 27 through 30th.

The iconic blue monster will stage the seated four-day four-round match play knockout event featuring 12 teams competing for $50 million. The first place team will walk away with $16 million, followed by $10 million per second. 8 million for 30, each player on the team receiving one fourth of the earnings. A lot of cash. So now this is interesting. We talked about it a little bit over lunch. And what we had mainly talked about was, and we've talked about on this show endlessly about how, you know, who's going to play, who should play.

What are they, what reasons are they playing for? What reasons are they not playing for? But what we were saying is that there is a level of golfer right now, chomping at the bit, thinking about a tournament like this. because they're, we're talking about the ones who don't have such a high profile like a DJ or a JT or a spieth or any of those guys. We're just talking about a guy who can't quite win on the PJ tour, but wants to do this for a living, but he can't quite get over that hump. And so this new tournament, this new league, if they're not going to get the big stars like we don't, we don't think they are, there is an opportunity there to make a ton of money. If you're one of those guys in a specific echelon of professional golf.

Also, that guy you're describing kind of like grinds. in his life. Yes. Like barely has any sponsors. Like definitely has the qualifications when it comes to his game, but like hasn't reached a level where like his skill is equating to him and his, his family and his life like reaping the benefits yet. Like a 300th ranked golfer in the planet is not a young one at least or someone

that is less qualified or I'm not talking about like an old school golfer that's falling to that lower level. But these new guys, these young guys like that really one. want to like make a change in their life and just want like the fast pass to do it. Fuck man. No one's going to care if the all this negativity about the live golf association, wherever they're calling it and all this tournament. All that negativity is not going to fall on the dude that is like ranked 40010th in the

world and went and played in one. Like he actually gets him pretty good press. Like like, oh, it's an amazing win. This guy just like changes life. All the other stuff is going to like fall on like the bigger names and the bigger heads and all of like the CEOs and all that stuff. Like that's where it's going to fall on. Right.

If you think about. the 30 to 40 best golfers in the world. It's all the names that you know. Those guys are freaks. They're freaks. They are so good at golf that you know who they are and they are in contention all the time at these major tournaments.

But then after that, there is a cascade of other really, really, really good golfers in the world who you don't know about who can go play in these live golf tournaments and potentially win $4 million each. In one event. In one event. And now look, I'm looking, you know, Ian Poulter is a great example of Ian Poulter's a guy who has been rumored a lot to be a part of this

or to be considering playing. Ian Poulter, I looked, you know, so far this year he has $450,000 in earnings for the season. In 2019, you know, he made $2.1 million, but it's gone down since then there's a pandemic and all that. So between like one to one and a half is kind of like what he's made. Now we could go over there, play against significantly worse competition. He is a team golf matchplay machine And over eight events of the last one's gonna have 50 million four million of you win for play Just for you he could make Easily in the ten to two million dollar range like pretty realistically very easily against these other teams

That is 10 to 20x what he's making on the PGA tour and he's gonna be doing it against worst competition Right Yeah of course that's going to be appealing to him and we have discussed in this show at length all the reasons not to do it and the horrific things from the Saudi regime who was financially backing this entire thing but we also talked to the beginning of the show about people do things for money all the time in this world amazing things the biggest one is that a lot of people go to work for eight hours a day doing something that they fucking despise to just make money and pay bills and you're offering to people now like yeah if you can kind of get

over the, you know, the negatives of where this money is coming from. And you go and play in these eight events, you know, you can make, in Polder's case, probably 10 to 20x a year, what you're making right now. Of course fucking people are going to be interested in that. Of course they are. And it's also going to drive a really interesting development where after these first couple events, and this is one of the things that Greg Norman said a month or two ago, and I think he's right, is that people are going to, on the top level of the game, be like, okay, I'm watching these

guys now who I know I'm way better at at golf than they are. I'm watching him over there and that guy just in the last two events made two and a half, three million dollars playing against people that are way worse with the people that I play weekend and week out. What the hell's going on? More than he made three years combined. I'm going to go over there and play. I'm going to go

over there and play in this because they're going to get lured in because money talks. Money fucking talk. Right. Because think about it. Even when a guy, when you're on top of the golf world, a big part of what people talk about, yeah, they talk about the wins. They talk about the trophies. They talk about a green jacket if you get one, but they're also like,

can you believe so-and-so made, you know, $15 million in three months? Now, what you're saying is going to happen, Rick, where they see... We got a live sound check going on for the band to our right. We are at the Barsoe Classic. Have we announced that we're outside? We mentioned it. Did we? I think we mentioned it.

Okay. You were talking about birds flying, and we talked about the classical. Yeah. Well, now we got music about to play. Basically what you said. Lesser, big guys, top guys, seeing people of a lesser talent when more money than them will be interesting. Super interesting. We got to talk about dude wives real quick.

Then we got all that more to say in this. Listen up dudes. How would you like the chance to win a trip for two with airfare and hotel included to spend a night with the one and only Harry Higgs at a top golf venue? I saw us tweet about this earlier. No way. So we got more details there. Yes way, Frankie.

Our buddies at dude wives have teamed up with their partners, Harry Higgs and top golf to put together this amazingly unique golf experience. Just imagine swinging the sticks and hanging one of the coolest dudes in golf and the winner will get hotel and airfare for two to enter all you got to do is go to dude products dot com slash top golf that's dude products.com slash top golf in your email the contest promotion will run the entire month of april and the winner will be announced in early may that's all you got to do you got to go to dude products dot com slash top golf to enter to win a trip for two to spend a night with harry higgs harry higgs is phenomenal one of our favorite people in golf yeah we had them

in the show for like two hours and we were doing the tailor-made shoot right around thanksgiving time So he's got that whole, the whole vibe of him with the shirt, took his shirt off at the waist management. He's got the buttons down. He's got the shades on. But he's also a very serious golfer. He knows shit about the game. He'll talk to you about golf, about in-depth shots, shot shapes, the mental approach to the game. He's talking about getting mad at his brother, who's his caddy on a certain shot decision.

Like, he's into that stuff. And then he's also this total beauty who rocks dude wipes. We talked to him at the Zerk. We saw him right outside the clubhouse. was not in any golf gear. He was just in shorts and a t-shirt, just drinking a coffee, looking like Harry Higgs.

Talking about the Masters and just like going through, dude, we talked to him for 10 minutes and he's just talking about all his favorite shots at Augusta and everything that he loved about it. It was, oh my God. What a great guy to be able to talk to. And now you get to win a trip for two by just going to do products.com

slash top golf. You go play and hang out of top golf and spend the night with Harry Higgs, who is one of the all-time grades. So, yeah. So this, the live golf investments is continuing to power through. They've now got, you know, their series is booked. I still do not believe.

Have we seen a definitive list of players that are playing? No. Okay. So we've not seen a definitive list of people who are playing. Just rumors here and there. Reports, if you will. But I do think now that you, now, yes, we've had everybody pledge their allegiance to the PGA tour. We've had Jay Monaghan at the Players' Championship, basically take a victory.

three lap and I thought he dominated and crushed. We have on this show laughed a lot at Greg Norman and I saw a very funny Aeman Lynch article I think yesterday where he said something like the clown show goes on with Greg Norman but it doesn't have his Saudi bosses

still laughing or something like that read through it and some incredible lines in there from Aiman. So we've done all that but now that you see real prize money the real money that's behind it is going to be offered up these events are here people are going to be invited to play they're just going to be golfers that accept it and play in this thing. And even if they're on the PJ tour, as of now, the thing is framed not to not allow them to.

It's framed to be like, oh, yeah, this is just additional stuff that you can play in. And it's up in, you know, Pumpkin Ridge, and they're going to be going to be going to the international up near Boston. Like, oh, yeah, they're just going to these things. Like, why wouldn't you play? And I think we're just going to start seeing people playing these things. This thing is not going away. I think at a certain point, I thought it was going away. and I probably around when everyone was pledging their allegiance to the PJ tour,

you would think that, or maybe we all thought that like Greg Norman and everybody who's in on it would be like, all right, you know, we tried, we played our best hand, but we got a fold here. That is not happening. They are going all in. They're going to put on these tournaments. They are going to pay a lot of money to the people who participate in them.

And I just think it's going to be a thorn in the tour side for the foreseeable future. What's up, Jake Bass? Phil Nicholson has applied to play in the fourth. first event for the live golf investments that's going to be in london um where'd you see that mr bass danny rapaport breaking news mid podcast my phone's about the desk so i'm pulling up to her so i'm pulling up danny rapoport's um tweet okay and it says right now there it is phil mickleson has applied to play in the first live golf event series in london he's also signed up for the pGA Championship where he'd be the defending champion.

This is from Steve Lloyd, Phil Nicholson's guy, co-president, Americans of Sport 5. Our client, Phil Mickelson, is officially registered to play in the PGA Championship as well as the US Open. We have also filed a request on his behalf for a release to play in the first live golf invitation on London, June 9th through 11th. This request complies with the deadline of April 25th, set forth by the PGA Tour to compete in a.

conflicting tour event. Phil currently has no concrete plans on wind and where he will play. Any actions taken are in no way a reflection of a final decision made, but rather to keep all options open. All right. So now this is really not going away. It's really not going away. And I know

but it was, yeah. It's hard to believe that it ever would have went away. I mean, there was so much. I know, but it felt like it was dead. It felt dead. It felt dead. Called it dead in the water. Yeah. Because you're looking for, you need top talent or we thought that that was going to push them to the next phase of it

was what a monumental moment is going to be a Phil Mickelson the defending PGA champion goes over and plays in this event and then they like ban him from the PJ TOR and from majors like what are they going to do they're going to have to answer it

and put them in a real tough spot they're going to have to answer to that because then once he goes the other guys are going to go as well all the guys that have been rumored they're just going to do it it's like the band-aid's been ripped off and like it's just golf tournaments I wonder before the US Open is June 19 to the 11th. You don't feel like it's a Band-Aid situation?

The only reason I say no is that people have spoken about it. That guys have said, this is what I'm doing. And they all saw how Phil got just chastised. I mean, Phil's reputation got. But that's what I mean. If Phil's going to take the brunt of all of this shit.

But they're, I guess kind of like are walking behind Phil as he's just taking bullets and you're just like drafting off of Phil. Yeah, you're like drafting off. And then behind him, you're just making like four million dollars and you're going home. My concern if I were one of them was like, oh man, I saw how badly it went for Phil

Mickelson when he clearly aligned with this new thing. So if I do it, could that happen to me? Yeah. But the rumored names came out after Phil had already gotten like quote unquote PJ tour canceled. But those, it wasn't a, nothing's confirmed. It wasn't a, you know, superstar list. He's also saying that he's not confirmed anything. No, of course.

He's keeping his options open. That's right. This is also a. So, like, Bill Mickelson has not played in a PGA tour event. He did not play in the Masters, but he has filed to play in the Saudi League's first event. Yeah. You know, that is. Talk about no transparency from Greg Norman, but, like, I mean, Rory even doesn't like no transparency from the PGA tour.

Like, no one's explained what's actually happening with Phil Mickelson and the PGA tour. We don't actually know where he stands on like, is he banned? Is he not? Has he missed tournaments on his own accord? Did he take time off on his own? his own decision or did he literally get like suspended? Jay Mott and answered those questions. He said like the PGA tour has not.

He said no of it. They had not. Essentially, right? Like, why has he not been back? But now you're making the point that that I made that you were against when you said, the only reason why would he lie about that? Because then he gives Phil ammo. You know what I mean?

Yeah, I don't think he would like ban Phil and then lie about it. Yeah. Because then, yeah, because then he would just feel could just publish that. Yeah. Why is he lying? I guess the more of the weeks that have gone by It just seems more fishy that like Phil's just taking the time off on his own To just not not playing him

Like he wouldn't just take take it on the chin and just like show up to one to an event Yeah, I found it very surprised He should have done that at the Masters but like even like RBC hair I don't know just like at some point you're gonna it's never gonna go away at this point So you just got at some point have to play in a tournament He might just retire just not right He might have been shell shocked by the reaction and what happened to him Yeah I mean Phil's had a pretty

damn good relationship and beloved by the media. Mr. You know, he's in there. He's always got jokes and laughing with the media and he's doing the thumbs up. People love them. He's the second biggest draw. I would say really in golf history, especially that's 30 years. And then all of a sudden he just became like public enemy number one in the golf world. When you said off from that statement that he will be the defending champion of the PJ championship feels like five years ago.

That was shocking. That he won at Kiowa. That was shocking when I read that. We were there. Crazy. We watched him win. The biggest tournament coming up in less than a month, he is the defending champion. And nobody knows if he's going to be able to show up. If he's allowed to show up, if he's going to play.

Crazy. If he's going to, like, that week announced that he's going to the rival tour, he's going to the NWO? Like, nobody knows anything. Fucking Phil Mickelson, man. What a year. Just brutal. Just insane. One of the greats is getting fucking dragged.

Yeah. just getting fucking dragged i wonder what he like truly thinks about all this because this came from quote unquote off the record stuff right or is that still up in the air it's still like up in the air because that's crazy if so with all the things that these guys hear and not and don't hear yeah but this was like a direct phone call conversation you had with alan shipnuck where it was like for the book and yeah and you know

but i'm just saying like if it was truly off the record and like it was just publish. Think about how many people in the tour and in the world would be able to just get, like, their lives would just be over if everything off the record was ever published as on the record. Yeah, it'd be a shame. It'd be a real fucking shame for a lot of people. For a lot of people, yeah. Yeah. It's just fucking crazy

what's happening to Phil McKeson right now. I imagine a lot of people's jobs would be in jeopardy of, in the world. If everything they said was on the record. It'd be chaotic. It'd be chaotic. Everything said at a bar or whatever was just like published on a fucking book. You know what should happen? Phil should write a book. Big time. They make a

ton of money doing that. I'd read it. Of course you would. I don't love books. I'm just kidding. Yeah. No, you don't. No, we can't talk about this. Well, no, we walk past this like old bookstore and he was like talking about it was the coolest thing in the world. I'm like just watch a fucking movie and he didn't like that. You were serious though. They were like, there's a part of me that's a part of me that genuinely people read books. No, no, there's a part of me that genuinely thinks that like, here's my point. I actually think it's a pretty solid point. That books were so good and they're such an

amazing thing before the technology of things that just are better than it came out. You know what I mean? But books still. I'm not. I'm talking. entertainment purposes. If I'm going to spend a night. I wouldn't disagree that books definitely got diluted a bit because there's so many other options, but I don't know that that completely diminishes the awesome qualities of books. Books, what I love about books is that it allows a great, the best combination of storytelling

and you also to apply your own imagination to it. It doesn't decide it for you. My thing, and it's a larger point that you're probably not going to like, is that I said that I like something that you don't necessarily like and then you feel like I can't like it. You're like books are stupid. Yeah, but I think what I did not like when you said that is because like you do the same thing the opposite way,

whether it become with anything. Like everyone has a little bit of sense in that where you're like, like if I don't like something, I'm just going to give my point on it. And you took it as though like I, that you're not, you took it up as I'm saying that you're not allowed to like books. That's how it felt.

But that's not. I was just saying, it wasn't that. It wasn't that. It's just like, it was we were walking by a place. I was like, That's a cool bookstore and you're like, fuck books.

But not really. I was like, why in this day and age, like, watching a movie is just much more entertaining. And like you took that as like you're not allowed to watch books anymore. I'm saying I think it's just crazy to spend the night not watching a movie because like the technology has gotten to a point where just watching movies is more entertaining. That's like saying that's my fucking take though. Just like your take is that like books are better. I do. I don't know books.

I'm going to say books are better. I just like books. Right. But I'm just saying like books were books because anything aside from books was not yet invented. So now we are living a world, which like, thank God that we live in a world where there's literally a billion different things to be entertained by. I just think like, like you're saying, it's gotten diluted a little bit. If I'm going to spend a night at 7 o'clock, I personally like to watch things that like the advancement of the world and technology have allowed me to like enjoy more than a book. But I think here for for me, there's a time and a place for each because I think a book, it's quieter.

It's almost more peaceful as you're experiencing it. You're not requiring all kinds of flashes of people to manipulate like your. your visual senses and all that. You're using your own imagination to create what the characters look like. They describe them, but you have your own, you know,

interpretation of what they look like and what the settings and the, in the sets really look like in your own mind. And then instead of it being forced, you're able to kind of be more creative, I think, when you're reading a book. And it's just a different experience.

I don't know. The imagination part I can totally, I mean, I've read, I've read book. Like Tiger Woods book, I really fucking enjoyed to read that. But also,

that was the only time I could, access that information. It was just in written, written form. Yeah. Had that been the documentary or something, like, I just, like, would have rather watch Tiger actually swing the golf glove as opposed to trying to imagine it. If that makes sense. Yeah. No, I know what you mean. I'm not, look, I, I love movies, too, just like everybody else, but I, it's not that I don't like books. I'm just saying that when you're talking about the entertainment aspect, trying to entertain myself or, like, get through a certain amount of time and, like, pass the time or, like, retain knowledge. I just think

that we've advanced past just the written form. I don't know about that. You don't think we have? But think about this, Frankie. Here's another thing about having we not about a book. About a book about an author, an extremely talented author, is also a very artistic experience that you do not get. And we talk about that with Aiman Lynch.

Like the way that Aiman Lynch writes it makes me stop in my tracks to be like, oh, that was awesome. It's a different experience. A good author does, a writer does that. And there's also great. books that aren't movies. So it's like, the only way to experience that is like, what I just said about the Tiger Wiz book and I enjoyed it thoroughly. This is my only option. There is a documentary now, but

yeah, there is. I watch a show out of it. You know, yeah, it didn't. It's different. You get more like, they'd say that with Game of Thrones too where like, yeah, you can watch a Game of Thrones show, but if you read the books, there's like they, the show is 15%. More of an argument or debate about just like the advancements and it was comparing it to like someone in the 1200s because it was such an old the reason it was such an old bookstore I'm like you don't want to read those fucking old books like you're living in the 1200s that means it was it an old bookstore yeah

oh I thought it was just a like oh it was old it was old shit and there were all these people trying to act cool in there it's like look at this dude hates books you don't like that I don't like books but I do like books I you I just love movies more that's just who I am I didn't say that you're not allowed to ever read a book again you made seem like no you just you were sensitive.

No, you were being like, you don't want to be in there. That's what you said. I was comparing it to the 12. I literally said like the year 1208. Like they're in there like a year 1208. Like go watch a fucking movie. I was like,

first of all, we were also just like walking down the street and I was trying to make a joke. Didn't know that we were going to get to like a life arguing, altering argument. The second thing is that I genuinely just like watching movies. And I'm not shitting on books.

I want that completely. That is my final thing. But that was like, yeah, it was because we like happen to be walking past a bookstore. I was like, look at these fucking.

people in there. Go watch a movie. It's just like a, like a classic stupid thing that I would say. He's book sensitive. He's a writer. I didn't think I was English major. I do love books. There's no deny in that. There's no denying that. Yeah, you are an English major. It's like, I love books. Okay. That's fine. You sure? I genuinely do not care what you do. How about Kirk Minahan's trying to read a hundred books this year? It's a lot of fucking books. That's serious. That's two books a week. Think about that much. Yeah. That's a lot of books, man. That's amazing. He's going to learn a ton of shit. That's why his brain is so fucking smart in mine. I can barely formulate a sentence.

That's true. So you just literally like brainlessly watching movies, brain and sound in your ears all day. It's true. Let's get you on a couple books. I've read books. I'm reading the Dave Groh book right now. Is it good? It's amazing.

I'm reading all of his stories because like there's nowhere else for me to find him. Yeah. I love listening to Dave Grohl saying. I love watching documentaries and Dave Grohl. He put out a book with all the stories he's ever encountered in his entire existence. His memory is fucking psychotic. Dave Girl's memory is nuts And I'm reading the book

It's just storyteller It's just that's what I'm doing Hell yeah I'm so as we're arguing about books I have a book that I bring with me And read it Come on put them there I'm just saying

I'd much rather watch Dave Girl talk to me And say it Because we live in a world where we can just watch A screen where he does that Yeah You could also listen to the book Which we also got into a debate I read Shudog

That was more of like an English language argument Some heated book debates on this show. I fucking, yeah, dumb argument. What do you think, do you, what do you think's been the most debated single thing ever? Do you think it might be books? It's probably God. Right, but that comes from a book. Just generally.

Yeah. Yeah, it's got to be God. Gotta be. It has to be religion. You think so? I think all wars just like, or from that and like vagina, right? Like, like, don't people say wars? Like, that's a guy who watch Game of Thrones.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Exactly. Exactly. It's a guy who watched Game of Thrones. Like religion and puts. I saw a bumper sicker about that once. The God and like who's right about it. Yeah.

Well, definitely it's been religion. Who's got the right one? Bad stuff. Yeah, religion's up there for sure. Shopify. They're up there for just being great, really helping entrepreneurs with the resources once reserved for big business. So upstarts, startups,

They're going to have their first event in June, which is coming up in a month and a half here. So things are just going to happen.

We're going to go through a couple from the galleries, and we're going to wrap this puppy up. John says you are in the final group of the Masters on Sunday on the 16th hole. You are tied for the lead, your playing partner. He hits a whole in one. How do you react? And he goes on to say,

I've always found whole and one celebrations at tournament's bizarre and I've never seen one with legitimate high stakes basically highlighting the fact that it's almost always earlier in a tournament or if it is at Augusta on 16, it's never someone that has a legitimate chance to win. Are you like high five in your playing partner? They get a hole in one.

I thought this was an amazing question. It is. How did Sergio Garcia's partner react at the WGC last year when you did a walk off hole in one would be my question. Oh yeah. You remember that? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It just eliminated the guy. I think I just saw that the clips after. I don't think I was watching in real time.

So I don't, I don't know. That's a really good point. Now, it's not the Masters. It's not 16, but it's one of the few opportunities that we have seen someone decide to celebrate or not in a position where they just got eliminated. Right. Now, think about, I'm thinking, you know, 16th hole Tiger and Francesco Monari. Let's say Monari had it hit in the ball in the water, a million times and Tiger murdered him and they're tied on the 60th hole and Arre holes out from the T for an ace.

Tiger's not fucking high-fiving him in his Sunday red. No way. I think because of just the way golf is like and I just think the moment you definitely just like I could picture Tiger's laughing and giving him a high-five or a fist bump. I couldn't. I think he would literally

just go talk to Joey stare down his yardage try to hit it tight to only lose a stroke and just keep marching his way through the back It might be... Definitely the more erotic way to think about it, but I just think as like, the human nature, it's just,

fuck, how do you not dab the guy up for hitting? He gave him a high five. Had off, Dap up at the WGC. I also think that one's a little easier because it's over. It's different. Have any other shots left. I see what you're saying. It's like, now it's over.

You lost. Whereas this is like, I still got work to do. My gut says, I'm more on Frankie's side where it's like, he gives him like a you son of a bitch fist. bump. Yeah, Tiger's a different, like, animal. No one. I know. He really is. Like, Tiger stands in front of T-boxes and, like, wants to get in your head and he's just wears red so that you just shit your pants. Like, he's a different guy. I think anyone else, they definitely give him high-five

and show him. Guy holds a shot to potentially, to take a lead against you and you're going to high-five the guy. You don't think Max Homa would give a guy like knucks. You don't think fucking Xandershawley would, like, walk up to JT and just give him knucks. Like, they're just, they definitely are. It's a hole-in-one and 16. I don't know that everyone in the field would. I think that's a good question for any golfer we're all going to say yes. You're going to, oh, maybe they'd show their competitive edge. Dude, I don't know.

I don't know that you would. When you weren't on or last show, like, would you rather have a hole in one at Augusta on 16 or the waste management? And I was basically, I was comparing basically Thursdays. I'm going to say, oh, man. I got roasted for this on Twitter on Instagram. Every comment was like, how the fuck, yeah. I'm going to say, oh, man. Oh, man.

Holy shit. You really got him there. I'm going to say the waistband. Dude, same. I got roasted for it. You get crystal at Augusta. There's more than enough evidence to show that I fucking love Augusta National. That answer does not waver my love for Augusta National and the Masters.

I still love everything about that place. It's been proven. But when given the opportunity to either, like, dude, we were saying Sam Ryder is just the ace guy now. Sam Ryder's, that was the most iconic things I've ever seen. We had him on the show because he made a hole in one. Like how many people have got, like, how many people do you, could you, do you genuinely remember or think of them as an ace that they got on the 16th hole at the Masters? Like, I don't feel like you really remember guys that. You remember the Sam Ryder one was iconic at one.

Someone messaged. Tigers got an iconic one at 16 at Waste Management. That's when they run back. Someone messaged me like, oh, like, if you got a hole in a 16 Augusta, it means you played it. It's like, dude, that's not part of the fucking question. Like, we're not asking if you'd rather play in the masters or the fucking waste matter. We're talking about memory. I'll put that on my list as a pro.

No, dude, that's not a pro or kind. We're not talking about like, you got to play a second hole at each course. Like, we're just saying memorable shit. What do you want to be a part of? It's got to be waste management. I honestly think my answer is waste man. But it's really close. Everyone was like, ah, happy birthday, son.

It's like, whatever. Yeah, I'm going to go. I'm still August. I like having what we had talked about like, Tiger's got an iconic moment on that hole obviously

I'd like one of my own just I, it's Augusta. You guys make solid enough points and again like you're saying just because you pick one doesn't mean I fucking hate the other ones. That's how the internet works now.

The comments like is this guy hate Augustus? What are you talking about? No, it's just like I'd like to have it there more than 16. It's the loudest hole in golf. I'm a lot.

I sell it a lot of my ears quite honestly. I don't know. I don't need to book. You hate the waste management now. Right. I need a, I need a book and I'll hold one on 16 of Augusta. A little lamp.

I think I say waste management. Do people throw it all the beers on and just the moment, man. The place is shaking. Like, all the videos came out from the driving range of what it looked like on 16. And they got like, people weren't sending out driving range videos in Augusta from an ace. They've gotten there. It's literally the iconicness of the 16th at waste management is. No.

Insanity. No, as a book guy, you know, people living in the moment without their phone. I don't have to live through screens. What's that? It's that meme that goes around where it's like, they'll show like an old concert and be like, look at those guys, not a phone in the audience.

They're just enjoying it. That's me. I would enjoy, we'd all get to enjoy my whole one on 16 and we would all have just memories in our brains. We don't need iPads and iPhones. You're a very forgetful whole one. Not for me.

Yeah, not for you. Oh, but just in the world. It's for me. My life's for me. Oh. Jesus Christ. I read that in a book. What a horrific answer.

My Life's from me. What's your favorite movie, Frankie? I don't know. Well, it's probably Whiplash. This guy likes drumline more. Fucking. I do. It's crazy.

Drumline's great. It's a good movie. Let's talk more about drumline. It's like an MTV movie. So? Crazy. Whiplash has some of the best fucking acting like in any movie ever.

Now you're acting like a book guy. Oh, God. I want you to know that it might be Whiplash. It might be. You've seen Whiplash. It might be.

You've seen Drumlines the same thing. That's right. I mean, yeah, I don't need to see it. Right. You know what it is.

I'm just the Bar. I'm just the Barre, more and Bagger Van's movie. Bar has been set. You know? Yeah. Yeah. No,

you're speaking of my language. Yeah. All right. Are we done here? I think so. You guys finished? I'm tired. I'm on the road for way too long.

Crankey, Frankie started coming out. I'm done, dude. I just got to go home. You're going home, what, Wednesday? Wednesday. We're going to the Preds game tomorrow. Oh, yeah.

Oh, we went to the Pelicans game. Oh, shit. That was very fun. Shout out the game time. Oh, and we went to fucking. Oh, crawfish, dude. Bevys. At Bevvvvvvys.

Bevy seafood in New Orleans. I guess it's like, is it New Orleans? Yeah, I think it's just, it's outside the city. Wow, man. Bevy's seafood. This, um, and Justin. Justin is a huge four-play listener. Big time.

Awesome guy. Just picked up the game of golf like, what was it, like five years ago. Yeah. Maybe something like that. He said he'd been running a couple of businesses and to the point where his wife was like, you got to get a hobby or you're going to, this is going to drive you insane. So he picked golf. She's into it.

He's into it. He's made him a better person in all aspects of his life. He's able to like get away from work, like better like person at home where he's like not as like stressed out and like not worrying about work. Better person at work because he wants to be at work when he's like, because he took some time off to go golf. Golf's great for mental health. and just general, I would say.

But then when you're playing it, you're like a lunatic. Like he was saying like, he's like a, he's got an Irish disposition. Irish, yeah, he's just like screaming. That's what, but he had fucking phenomenal crawfish. He heard us talking about how the only experience we haven't had in New Orleans was no crawfish. And like everyone's like giving us all these recommendations about you can go downtown. You can go all these places and order like just a pot of crawfish. And that's not the New Orleans experience.

So he's like, come to Bevys. He explained everything to us. We watched him like, clean them and boil them. It was crazy. And then he brings out this wooden table, a picnic table and just puts newspaper down and just dumped 15 pounds

of just insanely good crawfish, taught us how to crack them open. It was disgustingly like all over you, eating out the assholes and sucking out the heads and it was nuts. But delicious. Bevy Seafood. Wow, what an experience. In the Pelicans game. Yeah.

Really, we had a good time in New Orleans. Never been new an NBA game. It was a lot of fun. Shout out to game. app the greatest possible app you can ever have in your entire life to just be able to just go on this app, last minute tickets, best prices, you'll never beat it on any other website. I met Master P. Dude, Trent met Master P. We had

unreal. That was shocking. I saw that. I was, that made me so happy. We were talking about Master P in the car on our way to the game. We were. We were talking about the music that comes from New Orleans. And you're a huge Master P guy. Yeah. Are you a 90s rap guy? Is that what I am with Master P? So, my brother is obsessed with Master P and

No Limit Records. That's Master P and all his guys. And that was my brother's older than I am. He's six years older than I am. So when he was, you know, a teenager, I was a young kid. And I hadn't listened to rap music before. And I would steal his Master P CDs. So it was like the first rap.

Make him say, uh, make him say, uh. Yeah. You didn't know what it was. Yeah. So, um, so Master B like, like I talk a lot about 50 cent and G unit and my era. But the first rap music that I listened to, was MasterP at no limit. So it's like meeting him, I was like, I mean, you saw me.

When he walked in the room, I was like, I'm losing my mind. That was up there for you. And yes, it was because he's just like, I love hip hop. If you listen to this podcast, you know that I do. And he was like the start for me. We talked about MasterP on the way there. And then we're sitting in the seats. Master P walks down the side of the court to his seat, who he sat next to Bubba Watson.

And they sat on the baseline. It was fucking awesome. Yeah. Bubble Watson and Harold Varner sat next to Master P and his like guy. and then Max Homa and Gooch were with their wives and they were sitting right next to them it was like all like PJ Tour and Master P was sitting

right in the corner of the Sun's Pelicans game then we go and get food and popcorn and drinks and we're walking through and fucking Master P walked in with his fucking bling like shining like you wouldn't believe wearing a no limit records hoodie I'm gonna order one of those it's like dude and I'm like just filming Trent walking up to him he daps him up cleanest white boy dap of all time

just brought it in just a big moment just a huge moment Trent. Really, really cool that, like, it all worked out. Really big New Orleans experience. Big time. I don't know we've ever gone to a city where we engaged with the culture more than we went to New Orleans. Yeah, which is good. We need to do that more. It's like, 100%. It was every single night, a new restaurant, new experience. Because like every time we go to a new city, it's like

hotel fucking steakhouse or like, I don't know, go to Chicago. New Orleans is an easy city to do it in because the food is such a part of it. The culture is a huge part of it. I know culture is a part of every city, but New Orleans it's just dripping on everything. I would say like Orlando we did the. Yes, yes.

That was huge. Yeah. But like that's almost not it. It's like that is the culture of Orlando, but that's just like my favorite place on earth. Like I don't care where. But Disney owns Orlando. It is.

It is. Yeah. Well, just the more stuff we do like that. We had it was a great time. It's fun. We do. Yeah,

we do get into it. I just felt different because of the food was so good, I guess. You want to shout out your like favorite Italian place? Oh my God. You know, Irene's. Yeah. Irene's cuisine. Oh, right.

on the court right off of Bourbon Street. Wow. As a proud owner or family of the son of the owner of an Italian restaurant. I will say it was probably one of them. I don't, I'll say it's probably top three Italian meal I've ever had in my life

We loved every bite we had of every i'm talking you had a beginning i was moaning you had a very funny moment with uh the bartender who was taking our orders about like what did he what how did it go oh i was like dude this is fucking amazing oh was that when he said it wasn't his favorite frank he goes this is amazing my top three

Yeah. I basically got linguine. It was like fetichini with fucking crawfish and chunks of lobster and shrimp in it in this, like, cream parmesan sauce.
