Today is Friday, July 25th and you are listening to a not top 100 podcast and also Hulk Hogan is dead. Which one do you want to start with? We should start with Hulk. Two equally big tragedies.

Big tragedies. Let's start with Hulk. Hulk Hogan has passed away, 71 years old. I think that PFT today, July 25th, 2025, my childhood is officially over. Yeah, I mean, he was the 1980s. He was the 1990s. You could make the argument that Hulk Hogan might have been the most American thing. Yeah. And I mean that in every sense of the word. Yeah. And also like Mount Rushmore of entertainers and yeah, listen, we'll say it right now. Hulk Hogan, significantly better professional wrestler

than person. Great wrestler, great wrestler. But yeah, it was my childhood's done. It took 40 years. I'm no longer a child. I can now be charged with as an adult in the court of law that that all just happened today. Starting right now. Yeah. I went back and I looked at some of his best moments. You know, whenever somebody passes away, it does like the, the silver lining to it is sometimes you go back and you watch videos that make you happy and you remember some of the cool stuff that they did when he choked out Richard Bell's own live television. That was awesome. Yes. That was one of the best live TV moments. I think in the history of the medium, the body slam on Andre the giant his match against Yokozuna his heel turn his heel turn most iconic heel turn ever. You remember when he showed up in that cave that like weird just incredible television. He was wrestling and he kind of transcended the sport. He made the WWF WWE

What it is today. So yeah Mount Rushmore of wrestlers for sure. Yeah Mount Rushmore of wrestlers And these things come in threes. We lost a Cause a member of the the fictional Cosby family. We lost Ozzy Osbourne and now Hulk Hogan. Ozzy Osbourne, another great American. Yeah, another great American. Andrew Yang said that, yeah. By the way, I do think our esports correspondent, Darren Revelle, is starting to maybe learn from his mistakes because Hulk Hogan passed and he actually had a couple funny fun tidbits on his Twitter

Unlike when Ozzy Osbourne passed, I think he might have deleted one of the tweets. He talked about Ozzy Osbourne's famous take me out to the ballgame at Wrigley in 2003 and then followed up with yes I do have the ticket stub and everyone was like so you just made his death about you I think he deleted it Hulk Hogan he did you know, he has a lot of Hulk Hogan memorabilia. I think Darren probably has like both of the love sponges fitted sheets. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. He has, he has a bill from the sushi restaurant he ate at that night. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, but yeah, Hulk Hogan has passed, uh, childhood over 71 is actually pretty old

for a wrestler. I feel like dog years. That's like 200. Yeah. I, I honestly thought he might've been even a little bit older than that. Yeah. I wonder if they're going to continue to make the movie about Hulk Hogan and Gawker because Ben Affleck was going to be playing Hulk Hogan. I just want to see what that looks like. Yeah. You don't even have to release the entire movie. Just give me some pictures of some of the screen tests that they did for it. I want to see how Affleck's able to pull that off. Yeah.

I think they'll definitely still make it. Did we check to see if Bam Margera did? He had the chance to maybe make the most viral tweet of all time. Because if you remember, Hulk Hogan, it was a few years ago, many years ago, uh, said, damn, bam. I wish you were still with us. I sure would love to hang out again. My brother love you, miss you. And it's a picture of him and Bam Margera. And then Bam Margera said, I'm alive brother,

but miss you too. Yeah. He could reverse it right now. I think he mistook him for Ryan done. I think that's that's what happened. Yeah. Hulk Hogan said it sucks. Yeah. It's tough. It's a, I mean, yeah, great wrestler, great rest, great wrestler, great, great wrestler. Top top like a, yeah, maybe top American export. The world knew who Hulk Hogan was. Yeah. Your vitamins, each your vitamins, say your prayers, brother. Yeah. And I think that like we're probably dating ourselves, but the wrestling buddies the the the pillows Yeah, I was wrong. So yeah that Hulk Hogan was a big part of that

Okay. Yeah all this probably we probably don't even have anyone listening right now because we're not a top 100 podcast. Hey Zach What's up? Let's keep looking at me. You're nervous. I was Paying attention while you're speaking. How's all okay? Yeah PFT is sick And so Zach and Hank is out and And so Zach is sitting in PFT chair. How about I think that this might, this might be the key to getting us to the top 100. Yeah. If this episode had come out last week and Zach's in the chair and I'm not that I feel like we got to be above public. Tori finds out heartthrob city. that, that I feel like we got to be above public. Tori finds out heartthrob city. But what we're referring to is a time magazine, uh, famously named Hitler man of the year

in 1939, uh, that time magazine released their top or best podcasts of all time. Top 100. Now let me just say to start this, uh, we don't actually care about these fucking lists, but it is funny because did I expect to be on it? Probably. But it's fun to have fun with it when we're not on it. They also left off Joe Rogan, which makes it even better. And we got beat out. We got beat out. We got to tip our hat because Men in Blazers who we know those guys, we like those guys. The Kelsey brothers. We know those guys like those guys. Pablo Torrey. We know Pablo. We liked Pablo. Uh, and then the tennis podcast, which is just a juggernaut. So tennis podcast beat us out. I went into this thinking I was going to be mad when I saw the list of shows that they put above

us and I like you because I actually don't care because lists are, lists are made for like one of two reasons. One, just to Jack, to Jack off your friends. The second reason would be to get people mad about the list. But in this case, I saw the list of sports podcasts or ranked ahead of us and they nailed it. Yeah. Like time absolutely nailed it. The tennis podcast is a juggernaut. We try to dip our toes into the tennis scene, but we're casuals. Oh, uh, uh, uh, but yeah, you said it. I mean, you think of other, the other all time greats that time magazine has put up there. Hitler, Stalin was man of the year to Henry Kissinger. Oh, another all time man of the year. I had told the community he was up there. So I mean if we're getting left off this list I guess I guess misery loves company. So

more sports podcast did not make this list and made it. We have a lot of people with us that are saying nice things about us which I appreciate. Yes. But yeah you said it like Joe Rogan not on the list. Kind of crazy. No Bill burr on the list. Yeah. I'd say what you want about Dan Bungino, but the man literally podcasted his way into becoming the deputy director of the FBI. Yup. Adam Corolla like started podcasting basically like pretty crazy. Yeah. Talk to her and uh, but, but we should say we got beat out by, you know, better shows. Like there was, there's a recap show of the Gilmore girls that came out 20 years ago. That's Gilmore guys. Yeah. That's an important thing. I, I was, I, the

tennis podcast makes it so funny and no, no shade at them. We actually invited them on. They declined, uh, cause we wanted to get some tips on how to become a good podcast. But I think that if it were just men in blazers, the Kelsey's, Poblatori and Bill Simmons, I would have been like maybe a little mad. The tennis podcast made it so fucking funny. It made it so funny. And I know that I do feel a little bad that the, they had to protect their tweets. I'm not going to apologize for our fans because I love our fans and they ride or die, but, and they just went nine time AWL right in the tennis podcast face, but it just makes it so funny. The tennis podcast beat us out. If you were to make a list of the a hundred best podcast listeners of all time,

the AWL is number one. Easy. Number one. And we would fight if you weren't on that list. Easy. If we made a list, what about about the hundred best podcast guests of all time who would you have on that list? I've got my one one Blake Griffin This was a bad idea when we did this. Yeah, we could just say no no no I'm talking about across all genres Oh, not our podcast the best podcast guests of all time Oh, I think when the milk boys interviewed Benjamin Netanyahu, that was a baby. Bebe's gotta be the number one podcast guest of all time. Uh,

my one two would be cat Williams. Yes. Yes. I would agree with that. I would agree with that. We are so, so Chrysler for a while was a professional podcast guest. He was a podcaster. He was the, uh, so our goat, we, we alluded to it last show. Our ghostwriter, uh, for our book is here. Been a great week. We actually have a pretty good plan. Less. I actually said, I felt bad. I said to Matt, uh, cause PFT you're out today. Uh, after we met this morning, I was like, this isn't that hard. Like I feel good about it. And he was like, well, yeah, I have to

write it. I was like, yeah, yeah, you're right. We're going to do a lot of the writing too. But he did come up with the idea instantly. And we will include top 100 magazines of all time in the book. So Matt, you want to give us just a couple that are top 100 magazines? Oh, yeah, we have a bunch of real good ones here. We have Girls and Corpses, a bunch of real good ones here. We have girls and corpses, Linux magazine, Ranger Rick and practical sheep goats and alpacas, all real magazines and all better than time. Yes, I'm just gonna go.

Yeah, so we were in our builder. Rick is all time. It is like not including Joe Rogan on the list. It's crazy. Influential podcast. That would be like if you made a list of the 100 greatest genres of film of all time and you didn't include porn. Yeah, it's nuts.

Joe Rogan is the biggest podcast in the world, and he's like he's in the news all the time. And think about how many careers he started. It's fucking nuts. Wait, what was that? Practical Sheeps and Alpacas. Pract what was that practical sheep's in alpacas? Practical sheep goats in alpacas and uh pft just to give you a call back to croquet Um number 20 on our list right now is croquet gazette. Oh, I love that. Yeah, I know

We're gonna order a whole stack of them. Yeah, so we will have a mallet times man myself Because that's pretty good. We will have our top 100 magazines of all time in the book but the book is going well. We sat with Matt for a long time this week and we have some really funny stories that we retold and again we're gonna write a good portion of the book too which we do have to do PFT. Yeah. We're ready to do it. We also I'll just say it because we I was gonna say it after PFT but we when I was meeting with Matt this morning, because I do think that this book, we're dumb and books are dumb, reading's dumb. So I think we need to just be transparent throughout the entire process because people will like hearing about the process going along and they'll be like, oh, this is what

you were working on. So PFT, we were originally going to do like year by year. I think we're going to, and you could tell me if I'm wrong or if this is stupid, I think we're going to cut. We're going to do it in quarters. I'm going to make it a football game. Oh, I like that first quarter, second quarter, but different drives. Yeah. Well, no. And then in between quarters we'll write our stuff and, and give people like, we're basically the commercial timeouts. But here, here's the one thing that concerns me about that. Yeah. What if we go to overtime it over time and then just sudden death, like we're just one chapter and then we're done

in overtime. You won't know. So also if it's cut into fours, like I like my books with the shortest chapters possible. They're going to be too fuel. No, no, no. It's not. It's not. The first quarter is not going to be one full chapter. The first quarter is going to have many chapters. It's just a way for us to write. one full chapter. The first quarter is gonna have many chapters It's just a way for us to write like hey, here's here's the first quarter of the podcast history, right? So the prologue will be like the flyover nationally at them. Yep, and then we'll have half that we'll have red panda Yeah, half time. Yes. Yes. Oh, we should get we should interview red panda Matt you could also have a you could we're also just gonna have a bunch of pregame and postgame analysis that's other people writing. Yeah book

Yeah, yeah, and I also like that we went from Ten chapters to four quarters that makes my job a lot easier Yeah, even though there's gonna be a way more chapters. It's more palatable. Yeah, it's also Yeah, and as the fourth quarter dwindles the font gets bigger and bigger and bigger as we're running the clock out. Yeah, the stakes get higher. So the fonts got to get bigger. PFT. I also, uh, we haven't made the decision yet, but I think you'll be with me on this because like we're writing a book. The last thing we want to do is have to write another book or update the book. So we're just going to go 10 more years of pardon my take. Someone's going to die, but we will write that part of the book too.

And we're going to look into the future. Yeah, we're going to look at the future so that we never have to fucking write a book again. I think episode one of the show, I forget if it was you who said or, or me, but we said that this podcast will go until one of us develops a debilitating drug habit. Yeah. So that may be how we finished the, we finished the story, but I don't like the last thing I want is for this book to be successful and be like, Hey guys, can you do an update? Like five years from now? It's like, no, bro. We did the update. It's right there. I just want to say congratulations to us for not developing drug habits. Yeah. We, we use drugs, the exact perfect amount on the show. Yeah. Well, let's just hope. Well, no, I want

you. I want you. I was gonna say I want Josh Allen to keep winning MVP's. Yes. But if he wins, if he wins like the next five, we could be in trouble, but he can't win multiple MVP's in a year. That's true. That's true. What are you gonna say? Max? I was just, I was just leaning forward. Okay. I might get on testosterone. We'll talk about that later, but I I'm thinking about that. So well, it's it's the injuries are starting to mount up. Ah, we should talk about the big news of today. Uh, memes. You ready? I'm ready. All right. Chuck E. Cheese got arrested and he kept his hat on. Good mascot head on. Hat tip to him. Yeah. Like they, they were probably going to fire him when he gets led out of there in handcuffs.

But the fact that he kept the mascot head on, you're not going to find a better replacement than that. That is the, that's the best worker for your brand that that guy did so much, not just for the kids that were in there that might have been scarred by seeing the mascot get arrested and also removing his hat. Uh, it did a lot of good for those kids, not have to deal with that, but also just like the brand impressions that it did for your company. Those pictures of Chuck E. Cheese and handcuffs probably translated to millions of dollars in

equity for the Chuck E. Cheese brand. So that's the employee of the month right there. Yeah. I don't know if this makes me a good or bad parent But like I cannot wait to get home to show my kids this video and just be like look at this Never meet your heroes Chuck E Cheese is in the in the clink. He's been thrown away right now Well, I actually you know what I might just save it for the next time they're like, hey Can we please go to Chuck E Cheese's like can't he said? Did you know the E in Chuck E cheese stands for entertainment? I did. The mouse, the mouse's middle name is entertainment. So his name is Charles entertainment cheese. I have spent a lot of time in Chuck E cheese

in the last couple of years, uh, which is a place I didn't think I'd ever go back to cause I didn't think as a kid, it would last this long, but it is still going. They're still doing it. The best air hockey tables and maybe the worst ball pits. Yeah. Ball pits. And then there's just a lot of games and you just, you just can't get a lot of tickets. Like I try. I played so many games the other day when I was there for a birthday party. And now that I'm saying this out loud, I'm just going to stop the story. Uh, you know what? Actually I can say that because my childhood didn't end until today. Yeah, I was still a kid when I was doing that last last month playing a Chuck E. Cheese. It kind

of makes me want to go back to Chuck E. Cheese, seeing the mouse get arrested. Listen, I know I know it well. We can go. I know exactly where it is. And I know the games we can play, the games that will get us the most tickets. Also, the pizza, not bad. Not bad at all. Not bad at all. Okay. Justin Fields was carted off this morning, but he's fine. He has a toe injury. First, he hid behind a tree and then they put him on the injury cart. They carted him off and then they gave him an x-ray. Dislocated toe. So I've never dislocated a toe before. I would say though that if you were to pick one body part on your body to be injured, it's probably your

toe. I don't know. Turf toe is a beast turf toe, but I don't think this is turf toe. I'm just saying though, like if you had to pick one body part to get injured turf toe is a beast. I would say what I was more about like the bottom of your foot It's like a it's a foot injury not just your time pinky. What about earlobe? Fuck your load earlobe for my get pierced. Yeah, I don't really feel and hurt your ear your vendor Holyfield Trump I mean Holyfield literally got his earlobe bitten. I Trump I mean Holyfield literally got his earlobe bitten. I

Yeah, do you not know that that happened Mike Tyson? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you know, I know Trump. Yeah Peacrow Armstrong got I think both of his earlobes hurt, but he looks awesome now. Yeah, he looks sick. So sick What else nipple now nipple would hurt nipple would suck. Yeah nipple. Listen. We're just throwing out body parts. Okay, get mad at me I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Give us one Nipple would be really bad Forearm Forearm. Nope. No, I'm sure I'm fuck his forearm rough. I think a quarterback would need his forearm Well your hair as the quarterback hairs going. Yeah, maybe not trust and fields. Yeah No, so memes talk us through

today because it's been up and down. It's been, I got PFT, I got added to a Jets group chat. Max and I got added to the Jets group chat at Barstool Sports just to try to pump up the boys. Well, Big Hat was getting some takes off. I was getting some takes off, but I was, they were all coming from, like I've been through Justin Fields, I'm rooting for the guy, I have my doubts. I think it's fair for Bears fans who watched, was it three seasons? Yeah.

Three seasons of Justin Fields to say he's not a guy. But I do think that this season for Justin Fields is the best opportunity to try, is his last ditch effort to become a guy Okay, or less at least save his career save his career. That's fair. I would agree that I just didn't want it to see him go out like this like if it was an Achilles or yeah No, I when it was like supposed to be that's another thing. We need to get Rid of the carted off nomenclature

when it's like we don't, especially in training camp, because it's one thing to get carted off when you're watching the game and you can be like, Oh, that was a really bad injury. There's nothing worse than the carted off tweet that you get from one of the beat reporters from your, from your team's training camp. You're like, what the fuck? Cause you just think the absolute worst. You think out for the season. This was not a carded off. I mean, it was obviously need to be carded off, but it ended up not being a carded off injury. Yeah, I think that that's credit to everybody that tweeted out thoughts and prayers. It worked. Yeah, everybody was just like hoping and your thoughts, your prayers, they made it. They made it not as bad of an injury. It was like that with Joe burrow a couple years ago ago. Remember that when he hurt his leg during training camp and everybody thought it was like oh shit Joe Burrow out for the season. Turns out I think he was even back for week one. But he was. That was actually probably what you're hoping doesn't happen with the with Justin Fields because Joe Burrow was hampered to start the season. Remember and they started

slow although the Bengals start slow every year. But so you feeling, where are we at now, memes? It's been a few hours, vibe check. Vibes are great. Okay, we're back. Vibes are great, unless the toe injury develops into like an infection or something. I also would like to say that, and again, we talk about it almost instantly after,

during FireFest, I didn't, PFT, we talk about it almost instantly after during fire fest. I didn't PFT. I don't know if you knew this, but like memes is all in on Justin Fields. Yeah. Yeah. But to a point I didn't, I didn't fully realize how all in memes has been all in on everybody. True. Like that's just, he's an all in guy. He is. I love that about you. It's like every player on that team at the start of the year. Every coach he's all in on all of them. And then he's going to figure out who his scapegoats are. Usually he'll go to like somebody in the media first. And then after he gets on from that, he'll figure out the one guy that he hates on the team. But yeah, memes is always all in. He's optimistic. I got a question for you after

Justin Fields, after the news broke today, Did you allow yourself to get to a point where you watch to Rod Taylor highlights? Mm-hmm No, I didn't even get to that point. It was just walk in and then it was just on Yeah, and then it was just fighting for your life We're just fighting fighting for your life and the the the tweet that's going around about the Jets early Preseason slash early season injuries that does suck. It's a Justin Fields toe, which hopefully is OK. There are two years ago with Aaron Rodgers, the Achilles, 2022, Zach Wilson, knee surgery preseason, Sam Darnold week two mono, which is very funny. You just have on any list.

Gino Smith, 2015, broke his jaw, punched by teammate. Also funny to have on any list in the preseason. 2013, Mark Sanchez preseason shoulder surgery. And then 2003, Chad Pennington preseason broken hand slash wrist. And then 1999, Vinny Teseverde tours Achilles, game one. Yeah. Not fun.

Yeah. You want to at least have a full off season to be optimistic about next year. You want to go into week one're a loaded gun. You want to have everyone ready to go? Well, I wouldn't say optimistic You're optimistic you are optimistic memes is thinking soupy You just went you were just going through all the units on the Jets and being like we're awesome here We're awesome here. No, you're thinking and and if Justin Fields could perform the Jets and being like we're awesome here. We're awesome here No, you're thinking and and if Justin Fields could perform the Jets will be in a good place

But I'm not I'm not optimistic there minus 700 miss playoffs ESPN just came out with rankings that were 20 were ranked 28 out of 32 cares Who cares about rain? That's okay? I'm not I'm yeah, I don't Who cares about ranking? You don't care about that. That's the thing, I'm not, yeah I don't care about that. You don't. You don't. You can't now quote journalists and be like, look at what they're saying.

That is what they're saying. Like last season, they went into the season, we were ranked fourth in Super Bowl odds and they won five games. So it's like you can't really determine your entire team based off of. So what? So soupy. You just went full circle there. Yeah, we're back to super.

You went full circle there? Yeah, we're back You you're like talking about how you're not optimistic and then you finished with Wells well last year. Yeah, they said we're gonna be good Tation so I have expect you have expectations now you went the media doesn't the meat the media has us finishing last and then Full circle don't listen the media. They don't know shit That's true It doesn't affect your optimism the the media is picking you as 28th makes you mad at the media But that doesn't actually affect where you think that they're gonna finish. Yeah Correct any given Sunday you could win a football game

Yeah, but expectations get set pretty much immediately when you're a Jets fan So week one or preseason when your quarterback gets card off her toe Yeah The injury thing is just the only thing you don't want in preseason because right now it's it's everyone freaking out mode Aaron Rodger Jerry came up to me is like Aaron Rodgers looks bad. That's what I'm hearing from Steelers camp I'm like dude is day two who cares like the the Bears Caleb Williams got yelled at by Ben Johnson, got the seven on seven offense, got kicked off the field. I'm like, good. That's Joe Burrow said the defense won the day against them. That's what you should expect in preseason. The offense usually looks bad to start preseason.

And that would be a great job by Joe Burrow to gas up his defense early on in training camp. Right. They need to be more kind. If I were him, I would just let them pick me off three times a practice just to get some confidence. I saw that ESPN Cleveland is also updating on a day-to-day basis the stat lines for all their quarterbacks. So we're looking at the four horse race in Cleveland. Joe Flacco, five for five. four horse race in Cleveland. Joe Flacco, five for five. Okay. Perfect. No touchdowns, no interceptions. Shador three for eight. No touchdowns, no picks. Okay. Kenny Pickett six for seven. They let him air out a little bit. No touchdowns, no picks. And then Dylan Gabriel six for seven, one touchdown, no interceptions. So I, right

now I have Dylan Gabriel, QB one. Yeah. Joe Flacco QB two. Can he pick it then should door? Uh, I think I would probably have, it depends. What was the weather like? Probably pretty nice. True. I'm going to have, I'm going to put, yeah, pick it three and then should or four. That Brown's video, by the way, of them unveiling the new helmet. I hate that they did that because it ruins it for everyone else. Like for instance, so if people have missed it, uh, the Browns unveiled the new helmet and, uh, they had a guy who was taking video on this barge on the river, uh,

or the lake fall into the lake and it went viral for a little bit and then it leaked that it was all a stunt and what it does is it ruins when a Savannah banana smashes their face live on TV because that was real yeah such a funny face smash that he had that guy's you tried to do the backflip he's gonna get so much sympathy pussy that's rack right yeah that's right that did it rack he gonna try to do the backflip. He's gonna get so much sympathy pussy. That's rack, right? Yeah, that's right. That's rack that did it rack He's famous for doing the backflips that originally I thought it might be fake just because I've never seen that guy miss a flip Yeah

But yeah, that was a great face smash that he had there Max by the way, the Savannah bananas did reach out to me Should we ask them if you want to do dingers only against them? Yep. What do they say? They said no Oh, well, no, I actually didn't ask him cuz I want you to know what you want me to never do it we I kind of like this I know I thought about it and I Just don't know you you guys don't want you guys don't want to go anywhere Either like you guys don't want to do this max Are you saying that with the travel schedule that we have up for the next like four weeks where we're basically gone every single week

We don't want to travel so that you can do your dingers only bet that you should have done seven months ago Yeah, guilty is charged. Well. We tried to do it seven months ago, and you bailed it rain Happened multitude of times and then I there was an injury. Would you be able to do it right now injuries happen? I've got it out. No, you wouldn't yeah, I would you would tear an Achilles I fucking hurt my my leg would play softball. I got it out stayed on the mound All right, I'll hit up the bananas. I'll let me they're coming to Chicago. Yeah, that would be perfect. Okay, let's do it at Wrigley All right. No, they're playing it

Let's do it a Wrigley. All right. No, they're playing it. Uh, let's do it a guaranteed rate. That would be fun. That would be fun. PFT. I'm down. I I'm actually very lowest of keys. I'm psyched that Max has not scheduled this yet because I'm dreading having to catch for it. Catching. Yeah. It's going to be just as hard as pitching. Yeah. You know, catching was not fun. Was not fun. I'm'm not my knees aren't in the greatest shape They've ever been my ass is out of shape it's gonna be tough is that what I'm gonna have to get through it too, so the longer max delays on it the good for me, but

But I still get to make fun of max for not doing it yet. Yeah, exactly That's what we want to save her. Do we have anything else anything else? We missed before we get to we have an awesome Mount Rushmore, we have Scottie Scheffler. We have fire fest. I got one more story here. Yeah, I don't know this one slipped through the cracks But have you seen the new AI trend that is being wiped off the face of the internet? No, is that the LeBron suing it LeBron James? Yeah, right So there's an AI company that's been making pregnant videos of LeBron James. Great thing to specialize in. And LeBron James has sent cease and desist letters to

them and gotten all their content taken down off the Internet, which is it is the Streisand effect. So is he so is he is he pregnant? I don't know. I don't know. I who's to say. So he is a situation where he is pregnant but he's not ready to announce it yet. He's pregnant. He has not done the. Maybe he's waiting for the draft to announce his preg to like select his unborn fetus. Yeah. To join the Lakers. I don't know what's going on, but there were some pretty realistic videos of LeBron, why the buddy pregnant LeBron. And yeah, he's really making this into a big news story by sending them cease and desist letters. Whereas I don't think I would have, no one would have heard of this company that's making pregnant LeBron videos if he hadn't started to do this.

Is that what they're specializing in? Because genius hat tip to them being like, hey, what should we do? How about LeBron pregnant videos and just corner the market? Yeah. I mean, that's a great, it's a great idea for a company. If you're gonna do something, do something specialized and be great at it. Yeah. I can tell these are pretty hyper realistic LeBron James pregnancy videos. It sounds like, I haven't seen these videos, but it sounds like to me that he could be pregnant. He could be very pregnant.

Oh my god. Yeah. Pretty pregnant. That looks pregnant. He looks very pregnant there. No gender reveal yet, but- It's nice that he did, they need to do it in like a calf jersey to be like, this is how he announces that he's going to the calves.

I like that. I like that. Michael Jordan never got pregnant Alright Let's do our bout rush more with Hank back in studio. What's up, Blake? Is barking in the background? Yeah, that's what's up. Yeah, he probably sees a spider and and then And then we got Scottie Scheaeffler and Firefest.

It is the Mount Rushmore of things you'd like to be severed for. Severance show. So explain it for people who haven't seen the Severance show.

It's a sci-fi show where they have chips. What does that mean? Science fiction? Science fiction. They have chips in their brain and every time they come to work, they get in an elevator and when they go down the elevator, the chip activates. They go into the basement floor and they are a completely different person. They have no memory of their outside world and then when they get off off work, they

go back up the elevator. They come out the other side and they don't know what they did all day at work. So basically separating the painful things in your life turns out they made out with their wife at work. Yeah, exactly big cheating scandal, so I I got a problem We got a problem was team first Zach sat down with me up in my office for our pre-Mount Rushmore meeting and he pulled out his phone and I was like, sick, he's going to have a lot of good picks.

And he said, wait, what's the Mount Rushmore? And I said, it's things you'd like to be severed for. He's like, oh, I missed when we texted about that. And then I said, okay, well, let's start thinking. He said, what's Severance? Okay. And I said, I said the show and he said, Oh, I don't even know what like not. I haven't seen Severance.

It was, I don't, I had never heard the word Severance. It sounds like he's been severed for watching Severance. Yes. Actually, that would be a good answer for this, my rush more where you just get severed. So you don't have to deal with like, years in between seasons. Yes. Yes. Get to binge it.

So I have, he came with some picks But I also have a list of picks where he just completely did not understand what we were talking about that I can share after that. I think you guys will enjoy. Okay, our team's doing great I'm sorry that that's happening your team me and Hank are lockstep ready to roll positive vibes only we're cooking working as a team I have a good feeling looking at the sunny side of the mountain right now Hank I have a good feeling for your team today Hank is down bad. What's going on Hank? The Instagram captions draft really really fucked him up mentally so you came in here Today and you're like

I'm done with Mount Rushmore season That's not real you're not Not football. It was a football podcast is a filibuster PFT announced football is back I think quit we're going forward when we announce football is back. That's the end of Mount Rushmore. Okay, what uh, so The first guy to say it. Yeah, it's gotta say it. Would you would you want to sever Mount Rushmore season? Pizza toppings raft oh Hank you're not you're not That bad at it. We had a one bad Mount Rushmore. I think if you look at the history of this podcast

I'm the worst. Oh, that's not true You gotta you gotta stay in the fight Hank stay in the fight It's bad. We're in a bad spot. I was singled out for choosing the topic. I noticed we announced the topic. Didn't say who picked today's. PFT picked today's. No, I don't think so. It was down to two. You offered up today's. I offered up a different one that we're not using today.

You offered up the two for today. But if if we're going on the you were the one who came up. Oh yeah, it was from the list. It was from the list. I picked two from that list. Yep. But yeah, I was I was you know, I thought I picked a good one. The fans, you know, let me know it was a bad one. Just the topic in general. And I thought it was a great topic was great. I thought people liked the topic. And then we got smoked in it. So it was it was it was just it was Do you think maybe that is a double whammy? Do you think maybe it's because during the take ease when you're like, I don't really like the fans

I did I say that well, it's kind of what you did. You did the Spotify thing. Yeah, I never said that I mean again putting words Doing I never said that what did you say? I can't remember. I don't know definitely wasn't that it was like that They said they they send some hateful. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's fair. That's fair Listen, I've never had a bad interaction with a fan in person. That's fat. Love our fans. That's facts Alright, so we act like you've never gotten hate from our fans. Oh, of course. So that's all I said Yeah, I just I love the hate of and love the love. Yeah. And love it. Yeah. I also want to take some responsibility for

what happened during the the Instagram captions draft because I I don't think it sounds as good coming from me as from like a native Instagram user like Hank who's clearly passionate about the subject and knows a lot more than anybody else in this room about Instagram? So probably it might have come off inauthentic with me saying booked and busy That's true, so I'm willing to say booked and busy no, oh we're on we're moving on all right all right Well, I think you stay in the fight. I've let like like I don't know if this is before after the interview Before well preview I've let my anger out of let my frustrations, and I'm standing over the ball before or after the interview? Before. Well, preview. I've let my anger out.

I've let my frustrations. And I'm standing over the ball. I'm looking forward. Got it. That's a good preview for our Scottie Scheffler. Nice teaser, Hank. You're back. Yeah.

And tease. Let's go. I feel like you're still a little mad. No, no. Just at me. Hank, a little mad. I mean, the Cale Williams bar that he dropped on me on Wednesday's show was awesome.

I was laughing about it at night breaking nail Like that's a good a spicy Hank is a good day and guess what Hank balls in your hand Yeah, and max max piece of shit outside the show inside the show, but I'm focused on That effect I just wanted to let him know what the people were saying oh So you you brought the heat to him? I he yes. That's fucked up. Hey what do they say. I wouldn't do that to you. What do they say. Hank. I'll tell you. I'll tell you what a couple of them said. Yeah. For the record I thought you won Hank. That was one person. Nice. This other person said

I thought the topic was a great suggestion for what it's worth. Hank another good one. Third good one. I thought it was a great mountain rush more idea Don't let him bring you down. Yeah, love that How about those comments Hank army Hank army? Oh you reposted all these hey That wasn't why I picked those that had nothing to do that had nothing to do with why I picked those that is the final The final boss of angry Hank is to find people and retweet them. I love it. It's hard to find It's hard to find. It's hard to find. I was fucking mining. Mining for gold. Deep in the shit.

I was sifting through shit. What was the meanest one that you got, Hank? I don't even know. Like I said, I moved on. Do you remember the meanest one that you got, Max? No. I have no idea what you're talking about. I didn't even see any mean ones. That's mean, Max, that you went and took them to him? I was just wondering what he was thinking. Okay. All right. Should we do it?

Yep. Let's do it. All right. Who's up first? We are? I believe so. Okay. All right. We're up first, Zach. All right. Our first pick. Zach, Zach understands the assignment. You feel good feel good Zack. I do stay strong. Don't break. Yes, sir. No breaking. Uh It's a hard topic because we were thinking about a lot of things but I Would we would love to be severed? From going to the gym show up to the gym Get fucking on the list and get fucking ripped

Get out of the gym be like wow, so I had that thought and I put it was one of the first ones I wrote down I went back on it though because Sometimes I get a lot of good thinking done at the gym, and I wouldn't want to lose them Yeah, I just I the idea my hardest part the hardest part about like going I think we've probably all shared this like when you go to the gym And you like do two exercises and then just like, all right, I'm done or you sit outside the gym, just get me to the threshold

and then I'll be a beast in there. And then when I come out, I got six pack, everything be awesome. Guy like me, I enjoy the pain of the gym. I enjoy the work. That's the beauty of it. Okay. We're gonna go with finals week in college. Ooh good one. Okay, I like learning because right when you're done

It's summer you got the yeah, what about all the people didn't go to college Those people aren't gonna like the pick. Okay, there you go I mean it does mean that you lose all the knowledge that you gained from college your degree worthless That's actually not okay. How's that? Yeah, cuz you cram Yeah, you wouldn't know the things you do. Yeah, you would forget all the stuff that isn't that also like a fun like fun party week Yeah, no, and then you can like go out That's a good shot sometimes you go out one night and then try drink a little bit too much

You're like, I mean finals week is by far the worst week of all time. It's PFT, right though. You lose what you learned is by far the worst week of all time. Is PFT right though? You would lose what you learned. Name me one thing you learned from finals in college right now. Everything. Vietnam was bad. For who? Everyone.

Yeah, okay, yeah. All right, all right. Be as smart as fuck. There we go, there we go. Just fucking checkmated your ass. Checkmate. Hippopotamus' run on the bottom of the river. Still got it

It imagine if I had gotten that severed. Yeah, I would know shit about hippopotamuses or Vietnam Yep, okay All right our first pick and second pick we're gonna go hangovers yes good pick Hank And we're gonna go with dentist. Mmm, okay. Dentist, that was probably gonna be my next pick. So I was thinking about dentist, I had it on my list. They do do a lot of drugs now at dentist, which is kind of like borderline severance.

Like I get the gas every time. But you don't get to really feel the gas before you go out. I love the gas. No, no, not the gas that like takes you all the way out like the nitrous yeah yeah on your Kanye shit yeah yeah yeah that shit rocks okay good picks great pick great pick great pick Hank's two picks great picks Hank what are you thinking I'm sick of all this I am going to go with what are you thinking? team game Yeah, that was what I was like it. Yeah, that's good. We're gonna go with travel days, okay?

Okay, good pick so like like traveling in a plane. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, okay? I mean driving is fun road trips can be fun. Well is it like it's just a travel day, okay? It's essentially getting to your getting it's basically teleporting. You, you want to go somewhere, and then you're there, okay? Good pick uh all right, Zach should I just take the ball? What are we doing here? Where you feeling with the bowl? I was feeling three and eight Three and eight are both great pigs, Okay. You feel good about it?

I do. Stay strong, don't break? I think we're staying strong there. Is Zach ever objected to when you ask him that? No, he has. We workshop upstairs. We did last time we were in between two picks. We get quite combative in private, but this is a team game, so in public we've got to

stay strong and not break. We scream at each other. I want to see the combativeness. Yeah, well it's a players only meeting. Yeah I want to see it to be a fly on that wall Okay, so we're gonna go with commuting to work Similar to travel days, but it's you know traffic commuting sucks. Are you taking traffic? Are you taking commuting? Well, I mean, it's like I mean it's commuting. So I mean you have to deal with traffic sometimes sometimes you don't but there's just like getting

on a train commuting driving Sucks, I think most of our listeners like the commute because they get to listen to our show. Yeah, okay Good good. So we're just picking everyone's apart. Okay, I mean, I mean good job Yeah, no, that's fine. Good. Good point. Good point. Good point. That is what we Most of our show is any You could but then you wouldn't this show as the any you could but then you wouldn't get it as the outtakes but it doesn't matter the download will count

the same. Oh so you're just in it for the I'm just saying don't care about I'm saying oh all right I like this getting combative. All right. And then we're going to go the 24 hours after a bad sports loss. Good one. Yeah. So you lose a fucking terrible game on Sunday, just fucking get me to Monday night football. If you get drunk enough, you can kind of do that naturally. Yeah, I understand. Let me black out the everyone talking shit. Online having to think about the loss having to think about what went wrong. Just give me another day

away. Nothing worse than waking up on the Monday after a bad loss. You don't want to look at any TV screen the publisher the highlight and you do that like just like big sigh like fuck yeah yeah Mondays are way better when your team wins there's so much better yeah you kind of look forward to Mondays yeah I mean the star player season-long injury is almost worse because it's not like you can be like next season. Yeah. Yeah. Good point. Yeah, okay like costar player

Yeah For the old listeners, I just gave it look like what the fuck pft My desire my desire to troll Hank is way stronger than I desire To win Mount Rushmore's with or is be a good teammate. Oh Yeah, yeah, I should be like a gift you would you say you're the Jalen Brown of your team yeah, yeah Yeah, the guy you want to give the finals MVP to when I'm in healthy. Oh, yeah, that's oh Okay, who's up? You guys, max memes? Uh, yep. We're going to go with, uh,

the day after Superbowl to March madness, get rid of it all. Okay. Ever at all. We had that on our list too. That's vacation. That is our vacation week, but we are not everyone. Okay. Actually, actually max, this is maybe the stupidest pick of anybody let's go straight about go off go on you just fucking won the super bowl dude you didn't want to enjoy oh you would have had no time to oh you fucking idiot wow bad pick max you didn't get to enjoy the super bowl idiot this for next year yeah what were the exact dates i need the exact dates? I need the exact dates

What I said the day after Super Bowl to the start of March Madness So you're missing the conference tournament week and the parade terrible terrible at the conference tournament week You love the Big East Conference turn. I do okay. That's fine. That's fine. That's fine. I don't I don't care you can I don't care. That's the pick. That's the pick I I don't I don't care you can I don't care. That's the pick. That's the pick I Don't care get no parade. Can we have any no he said by an Eagles fan who just won the Super Bowl You don't get to see Nova in the conference tournament. That's not what you winning a game or two You literally started off this argument by saying yep. That was our next pick yeah, and then Guess what yeah, it would have been awesome cuz my team yeah in the Super Bowl the situation remains

Okay, I would have loved Not having to think about the Eagles being a Super Bowl champ for a month max you've been you've been doing this this podcast now three Years, we talk about this as being the worst time of the year Every time I'm here and I get a time out. Where are we. Can I get a time out. Are we speaking. Can I get a time out please. No I never talk about conference sermon week. Yeah. OK. I'm sorry. Sorry. You're playing this man here. Yes it is the best week here. Sorry we're playing this and I get a time out. Can I get a time out. Sure. You're acting surprised. How long you've been doing this podcast three years

now is your third summer. This is my my gonna be my fourth fourth fourth fourth. We're just looking looking at okay You know how this works Every single Mount Rushmore season we play nicey nicey nicey and then something happens to Hank and then the gloves come off But then I and then I get mad This is true. But then I get mad. So the in-srim caption draft was something happened to Hank and now the gloves are off. But you're also forgetting, I've been here for four years, this is how I'm going to respond every single time.

I know, but you have to know that the tone was set for this draft way before. When PMP tried to say that finals week rocked. Well you might drink. I think you learn a lot. Oh yeah, don't you before that finals week rocked well you might drink I think oh yeah don't you party during finals week it's the only fucking college dude thanks to that I did say that like you oh there's always one night where you go out just a little bit too hard and you're like fuck I shouldn't have done that then you take your final hungover and that sucks but it was a great night yeah no yeah when you when you do go out when you get a little wild during finals week. Oh, so you're not supposed to yeah

It's oh, it's the best feeling time you wouldn't get it max also You're missing out Valentine's Day. I guess you don't love love. That's okay Again, you started this argument by saying that was my next pick President's Day. You hate America Disrespecting mr. Trump again That's fine. It was actually our second pick, but I didn't choose it Yeah, thanks in the zone right now Arden last two picks be a damn need help on the last one. We're gonna go with traffic Good pick Hank

Does commuting no you can be in traffic. Okay. All right. All right. You can be driving for pleasure. Okay. Right. Yeah.

Or driving to get to any destination drive. Maybe you're late for dinner. Yeah. Late for an appointment. Nothing worse than traffic. Okay. Hey traffic. And then I just highlighted one, Hank.

I think that's a good pick. This was, this is a good pick on your part Are you sure cuz author Matt said otherwise should we go with his pick yeah, yeah his pick Yeah, we'll go with bad breakup He was in the room what about the rebound chicks Bad breakup could pick Hank they made a whole movie on your your standards and really good they made a movie good really good eternal sunshine really good great film nice job picking traffic also okay really good pick you like traffic yeah no even though that was like the exact reason

no good pick a pick a pick what no good pick a pick no no people listen to part of my take on their commute like people that commute also on trains They walk to work also like to work in traffic. We had three different forms of traffic by the way No, but what was your was a travel day you get you know, yeah, that's airplay. I never said I love driving I love driving driving one of my favorite things to do. I hate traffic That's when you do listen apart my take Is when you listen you will not catch me listen to part of my take in traffic I don't listen that's a promise No, but I think people listen to part of my take on a commute because that's built into their daily routine traffic could be you're

Trying to know a commute with no traffic is not as I like my commute I can get to work is easy Well, I guess if I if my if my 20 minute commute turned into a 35 minute commute because of traffic I would be like I wish I could put a chip in and get over this. It's a Saturday You're maybe you're going to the beach. Yeah, it's beach traffic. Yep. Yeah beach traffic. All right, Max we're gonna go with a Food poisoning stomach bug. Okay, that's like a stomach issue being sick It is kind of like hangover, but that's fine. Yeah, okay

Zach permissions to just go full send take a risk take a shot one. This is all rip one let it rip Okay, I'm letting it rip This is very niche so it might not play Any conversation with Ben Mintz. Okay. Oh, please, right? You just get caught there. You just want to get out.

That would be so fucked up to your Innie. Yeah, your Innie here trying to kill themselves. Oh my God. Their entire life is they think that the only person that they talked to, the only other person on planet earth has been I'll give you a counter point, though. Yeah, I was

talking to Ben last week. Oh, uh, cornered me a little bit when I was upstairs, whatever. That's fine. I told him he looked good. I asked if he'd been working out. He has been working out. Uh, he told me that he is planning on getting under 180 pounds. And when he takes his shirt off for the first time, people's brains are going to melt. He's going to melt brains.

And I'm so glad that I heard Ben Mance tell me. Yeah. Well, I, I, my Audi would have been able to see him take his shirt off. I just didn't have to hear the story about it because it was definitely not that short. I saw him, I saw him today. Uh,. You know something they did then max to the 999 challenge they were drinking beers and eating hot dogs and people were you know hung over from the beers and I saw minty and he Basically said he had a hangover from hot dogs There are you know, I'm just you know the hot dogs. I'm like are you Are you saying you're hungover?

Thing they also on the yak used the word which I hadn't heard anyone say in a long time He said I try to take a crap. I was like who says crap You'd also go crap you would miss his winners though in football season. He doesn't share them and he shares them after boosts though after He's more of a march madness This is good. This is gonna be a pic that I like I think it's very funny, but we'll see it's niche It's very niche. What was the widespread?

The earth you know that was when when widespread panic did he did they did lawyers guns and money in Red Rocks mountains were shaking What do we got for honorable mentions then I'll do just brought us back Great Mount Rush I wanted to do it, but I didn't I I am trying to win But it would have been it would have been nice just doing that the suffocating your adult junkie nephew to protect your crime family Oh, that would have been good also wife dying in a car accident. It's a valid one. Yeah. Yeah, that's the entire point of the show

Yeah, yeah, uh I Had I hadn't seen the show earlier. I had I had another I had another niche one but we were trying not to get it to go nuclear here. It was going to be Hank talking about his golf round. Right. You'd say that. But then other people like don't ask. Yeah. Yeah. I didn't make the pick. But you I did not say it. You literally bring it up. And then you talk to me every single day on the act about golf. Well that's been two days because he's the weirdest call forever. That was a good point. That was a good point. Good point. Good point for Hank. Prison. Not really relatable but imagine if

you could sever. Like I actually think that person could get to a technological point where that becomes the thing I think prison is a perfect pick. Yeah military service Yeah, we had going to war we also getting shot I thought about prison but prison like you can't that's not like yeah a lot the majority of people do not go to prison Yeah, but if you did you could say now at one point Hank was yeah I was in my this is in my feels Yeah, when I was in my feels this is early This is earlier in the morning when I was fully in my field Hank was playing a game of chess against himself

Like it's that the meme of the guy whose brain wraps all the way under the table and he's playing chess against that He had blowing a three nothing lead in the ALCS, but then he also had Malcolm Butler's interception And blowing a 28 to 3 lead in the Super Bowl. I was trying to throw people People think this can't be Hank smart smart What about a wedding ceremony? jury duty jury duty doesn't happen very often but I mean a wedding ceremony you would assume it's someone you like and care about and it's the best day of life

I mean a wedding ceremony you would assume it's someone you like and care about and it's the best day of life Yeah, you want to see you want to see it's other people's but like some of you're very close Yeah, I still get to the point you got invited to I'm sorry still get a day of their life It's not even my pick you're arguing with yeah, it's honorable mentions witnessing two people joined for life in front of the eyes of God We were gonna say labor going to war yeah women Definitely labor. Yeah. Yeah, maybe dudes too. I said I said military service, but getting shot How would you say it like up until? Because you want to be there for the Bert for like the actual birth birth part

It'd also be a scary thing to get off the elevator, too Yeah, yeah Do you guys want to hear Zach's yes, Zach? Can you explain I'm gonna say him and you explain him? Okay, I can do that All right Porta potty Sometimes you have to use them. Yeah, it's a bad experience. I actually get it over I think that might be even a better pick of Max's pick of the stomach issues. Yeah, okay Burning burning that's very wrong burning your tongue

It's gonna happen to all of us again. It's happened before I'd like to forget it, but but it's like you came back to you still have a burnt Initial shock factor is like no, but the worst part of like a burnt tongue is like after the next week Yeah, like you have you still feel the burnt tongue you get rid of all of that I don't hate that if you just want to get rid of all of that if we just skip anything involved with that tongue It's like biting the tongue to like tongue injury Mondays is a good idea Mondays, but Monday suck some time actually Mac should have taken it because he doesn't watch Monday football. Yeah

Eagles play but he does love lasagna. Yeah He this, he, this one I liked anytime I have to take my shirt off. Yeah. But then the problem is that gets reversed pool boat. Like those are fun times. Yeah. So that's, that's where it kind of falls apart. But I know it's not an intercourse guy. Yeah. On the surface. That was a good pick. Then here's where we kind of falls apart, but I know it's not an intercourse guy. Yeah on the surface That was a good pick then here's where we got a little sideways we Just math Skip it What if I'm counting an over in my head no, but that means that yeah, oh you're outy your Audi can do zero

Anything math related I think you can get around yeah And this one was probably the one that made me laugh the most because I don't know how relatable this is Kidnapping Have you ever been kidnapped before no, but if so skip it Have you ever been kidnapped before? No, but if so, skip it. Yeah. Skip it. Delete it.

Skip it. Any trauma whatsoever. I was just like, Zach, I don't know if that one plays because a lot of people don't get kidnapped. But I would say the ones who have would be like, yeah, if I could just not have been, if I could forget it all. Yeah, true. But then what if you get recovered by the police and they're like can you describe your kidnappers to us?

You're like fuck yeah, and then you have to think it could be anybody or you keep making the same mistake keep getting in that van Yeah, I think forgetting the trauma would be better than the justice being served so maybe they got away with kidnapping me But at least I don't have to remember how it went down, okay? Anyone offers you free candy you're kind of a sitting duck. Yeah, we had we had we had Losing Mount Rushmore that you chose. Mmm. We had a pizza toppings Mount Rushmore Mm-hmm. We had meeting your childhood hero and stepping on their sunglasses Yeah, we had hail marys that go against your team for a while. We thought maybe we'll just go fully. We'll just go nuclear

And just really this was part of was part of the getting over it. Really lash out. It was a cleanse. We had to cleanse it with all our mean- All our mistakes. That's good. That's healthy. Yeah.

Last season of Game of Thrones. Oh, good call. Good call. Anything else, Hank? Hank, you should watch Severance. I think you would like it. Yeah, you should. What about, like, I was trying to figure out

if there's a way that your Innie could just eat healthy. We said that. We said dieting, but like. Actually having a diet. Maybe every meal during dieting. So it's just like. Like if your Innie could, if you had the chip and every time you stepped in your kitchen,

and then that guy was just eating the best food the most healthy food yeah that would be good you're like satisfied yeah and you have no idea that you're full but you don't realize you're full on sorry right what what they're so fucked by the way they were there but they ran back inside there they're they're just gonna die in there oh we're talking real seven mark yeah yeah we'll see it's gonna be interesting what happens when is the next season do we know wait didn't you say that you didn't watch the show no he watched yeah we talked about it like for like weeks yeah yeah big cat said a second ago Hank you would really

really like severance I think I said that or max Hank told me that he'd never watched the show before we started this. Oh good job I meant oh my art of war very smart. So you had to make when you were strong. Yes I fucking was obsessed with it Hank. Just why did you tell me you'd never seen it then? I was just upset with you With I said why are we doing this and he said I said what's the my rush more again? You said it's things like to be separate from I said said what does that mean? I've never seen the show Got him. What is that? Did you got chest you got chest peaced by you did you got chest piece? That's all me you got pissed up actually. Yeah, I do remember talking to you about the show. Yes. Yeah

Yes, he talked about it all the time my boy I severed I said got peaced you got pissed up, but I don't understand like what where's the joy coming from that right now? Yeah Like a fucking idiot 200 IQ move by hit it sorry what an idiot. I got it Hank I feel like this might be how Hank got his groove back. I think so now I think you guys are gonna win Hank was in the zone. Oh wasn't yeah, he called it. I think you guys are gonna win okay all right I think you guys are gonna win. Okay.

I could say friend of the program, right, Scotty? Yeah, yeah, friend of the program. All right, love it. Friend of the program, recurring guest, Scotty Scheffler, fresh off of his Open Championship win. He's got the Claret Jug, his fourth major, his second major this year. He is absolutely on fire and he's also in Happy

Gilmore too, which is coming out this week. So let's start there, Scotty. I know you only give yourself two minutes to enjoy a major victory, but I did see you on the red carpet of Happy Gilmore too with all these guys and you had the Claret jug. Was that the coolest thing? Were you able to allow yourself an extra couple days of enjoying the victory when you're standing with the Claret jug at a red carpet premiere? Yeah. I mean that was, that was pretty cool. Um, I think, I think sometimes it feels like my wife and I live like two separate lives where you have like this one life where you're going out and doing kind of crazy stuff like that where you know one day we're playing in the open championship and the next day we're in New York at you know premiere of

happy Gilmore like a movie I grew up watching and then you know the next morning we go out early get some bagels and then we catch a flight and head home and then stuff just backs normal. Yeah. But yeah that was that, that was pretty fun. Yeah. It seemed like a good time. Congratulations. You are the champion golfer of the year. Is that the official moniker?

That's the official deal, yeah. The champion. It's a great title to hold. And the jug, I'm a big fan of the Claret jug. I don't know if you're a big partier though. Like, did you drink anything fun out of the Claret jug? I haven't drank anything out're a big partier though. Like did you drink anything fun out of the clear jug? I Haven't drank anything out of the clear jug Yeah, we actually we have a we have a celebration planned this Friday with a bunch of our friends here at home So that'll be that'll be the the time to celebrate but really I mean we we got done

Late Sunday night and you do all the the stuff after we actually had to catch a flight to get to New York To get to the happy Gilmore premiere because that that was we had planned on that all along. So we had, you know, everything scheduled. So kind of got, got out of town pretty quick. So didn't have much time to celebrate. Did you fly with the trophy? Did you carry it on or did you have to check that? I did not bring it on the plane. It went underneath the plane. We were riding. It was, we rode over with, with Bryson and Tony Fenow. So it didn't really feel like I should

be just bringing the Tracy on the plane. That's nice of you. I guess my question was presupposing that you were flying commercial over there and back, which I realize was a very dumb question to ask in the moment. But yeah, I mean, you played really, really well. I sense that watching you play in the open, that the biggest moments of celebration for you on the course

weren't for birdies or great scores on holes, but on your pars that you had, your unlikely pars with your putter. Is that kind of how you process it as you're going through, like being able to use your putter to get you out of a jam? That was what you got the most satisfaction out of? Well, yeah, that's a good observation I think you know I made some important putts. Ball knower. No like I said that was a good point I think

especially during Sunday's round I made a nice birdie on one good birdie on four and then I made a really nice putt on five and so I had maybe a five or six shot lead and I think when you have a big lead like that, you don't really want to give the guys behind you much to look at in terms of like, oh, he's making some mistakes. You know, if I could do this and that, then it'll put some pressure on him. And so making those putts for par are really important,

especially the ones I made for par. Like the putt I made for par on six was, I hit the iron shot exactly how I wanted to, and the ball just did not react in the iron shot exactly how I wanted to. And the ball just didn't, did not react in the air at all, at all, how we thought it would. And then on seven, it's a reachable par five. I shouldn't have a putt for par. There should be having a pretty good look for birdie. And so to make that putt also, both of those were really important for momentum during the round. And it was just nice to kind of be able to stay ahead

of those guys. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, your mental game is insane. Like they had the stat about, you know, when you bogey a hole, your, your, your bounce back is just like off the charts. Uh, and you, you, you mentioned you're obviously you have a big lead on Sunday, human nature. At what point were you like, all right, I think I got this. Or do you not allow yourself at all? I mean, I've allowed myself to do that once in my career. I had, it was at the Masters in 22 when I four-putted the last hole. And so, I mean, during the middle of the round, you just, you can't let yourself think like that.

Really, I didn't really feel like it was one until you hit the ball in the green on 18. You're like, all right, I can figure out a way to like lag it up there and five-putts or whatever it was that I had to deal with there at the end. So it's very difficult, but yeah, I try not to let my mind wander to that kind of stuff and really feel like you have a one just because especially in Wings Golf, like disasters can happen like that.

I mean, like I, after I made those par putts on six and seven on Sunday, you know, I come back on number eight and I quickly make a double. And so you just don't know, you just don't know what's going to happen. And so you got to be prepared for all things and you know try not to celebrate too early. Yeah. I mean it was it was incredible tournament. You were on fire. What what is special about Ted Scott your caddy because this is not only obviously he's been on your bag for these major victories but he was on Bubba Watson's bag like it seems that he is at the top of his game at the same time that your topic your game is that fair to say. Yeah I mean Teddy is an amazing caddy and he's a great he's a great person. I mean he

he's one of those guys that when he meets somebody they feel like they're his best friend because he just treats people so well he's's an amazing guy to be around. Everybody's his best friend. He's extremely likable. And so having him out there on the bag, like he works as hard as I do, if not harder. And so when he gives me information out there on the golf course, I can really trust knowing that he's not just making stuff up. He knows exactly what slope is up there.

He knows exactly how the ball's gonna react. Like he just knows his stuff so that I can go out there and just try to hit the shot. And I feel like with both of us out there, like his preparation is so important to what we do. And I mean, he's just a great asset for me on the golf course. He's one of my best friends in the whole world too. And he's just a all around great guy. Yeah. Is there a specific time, maybe it wasn't even this tournament where you maybe disagreed about a shot and you lean towards him and then it was like, it was spot on, you're like, fuck, he really knows this.

Yeah, that's a good question. Thank you. Yeah, great question. Gosh, I don't have a good memory for that kind of stuff. I'm kind of one of those guys that once the day ends, I feel like I forget everything. But I definitely have some instances of some putts, for sure, where there's been, like the Olympics last year was a great example of a week where I was just struggling

on the greens and we made the turn on Sunday and I missed another easy birdie putt on nine and all of a sudden the tournament's like getting away from me, I'm arguably out of metal contention at this point. I look at Teddy and I'm like, dude, I don't know what I'm doing out here. He's like, well, just let me read some putts. I was like, okay. He started reading putts for me the whole back nine Sunday in Paris.

I basically made everything and we played great and ended up winning a gold medal. We got off the course and when the tournament was over, I was like, Teddy, I literally do not think that I could have won this golf tournament without you on my back. Like I don't think there's a way that I could have done it. And that was just a really cool moment for us because in golf, like Teddy really is such a huge part of what we do. But I think sometimes in golf and he focused so much on the player, but Teddy is a huge part of what I do. And it was really cool to be able to share that moment with him and be like, I literally could not tell him this as I get my bag.

Yeah, that's awesome. Seems like a great dude. When we're watching you dominate the field at the Open Championship, and really it's been for the last, I'd say, year or so, the discourse inevitably becomes, is Scotty Shuffler Tiger Woods? Everything about you gets compared to Tiger Woods in the start that he got off to. Do you find those comparisons flattering or are they like rat poison? Like, don't tell me that. I don't want to hear that. We're different people. Cause I feel like if somebody

compared me to Tiger Woods, I'd be like, hell yeah. Yeah. I'm Tiger. You know, like I'd be excited about that. Yeah. I mean, I think anytime you can get mentioned in the same breath as some of the greats of the game I think is really cool. But the comparisons I think are just very silly. Tiger stands alone in the game of golf. He completely transcended the game. He was by far the best player that I think we'll ever see in our lifetimes. I think people are always looking for that next thing, but there's only one Tiger Woods and the rest of us are just trying to do our best out there. I think that's really all it comes down to. I think, for me,

I think it's silly to just because like, I'm my own person, I'm my own guy, I'm just trying to get the best out of myself. And it's not something that I think about on a daily basis. But when you see some statistics, and you're being compared to them in some way, that means you're doing something right. Yeah, Yeah. I alluded to at the beginning, I was half joking about the,

you can celebrate a major for two minutes. You had the comments on before the Open Championship. Were you surprised that people kind of took it in a weird way? Because I watched it, and I said, Scottie's basically saying that you can't have golf just be the only thing in your life. Because if it starts to fail then like what's life you know and you have a family and you have faith and all these other things that are just as important to you.

Yeah I would say that that's what I was trying to communicate because like we are sitting there in the media center again they're like hey how you gonna do this to win this week what's gonna happen this week and I'm just sitting there thinking like, guys, I'm answering the same questions over and over again. If I win this tournament, I'm gonna show up at the next tournament and you're gonna be like, all right, how are you gonna win this week? And it's like, just live in this timeframe

where we're always onto the next thing. And that's really how it feels sometimes. Just when it comes to celebrating, it feels really awesome for those few fleeting moments of just pure elation after you win a golf tournament. When the ball finally goes in the whole Sunday, give Teddy a hug, shake hands, and I see my wife and my son, it's like... I mean, it's the craziest feeling in the world, but it just does not last.

That adrenaline, that feeling just lasts for a few moments. I mean, it's, I mean, it's like a drug. You just want more of it. But the feeling of like happiness and satisfaction, having being able to accomplish like a lifelong dream lasts for me for a long time. Like, I mean, it's a pretty amazing thing for me to be able to accomplish something like that. And it's something that I'm very grateful for. But like you said, it's not the only thing that's in my life. Like striving to win golf tournaments is the only thing is going to lead to a lifetime of, you know, it's not the only thing that's in my life like striving to win golf tournaments is the only thing It's gonna lead to a lifetime, you know disappointment basically, right? Right? Do you did you realize when you had that press conference that it?

Maybe you you weren't planning this but it was a total mind fuck for your competition Because you're playing so well and you're like, yeah, and I only celebrate for like two minutes and you're like, yeah, and I only celebrate for like two minutes. I remember walking out of that room and I'm looking at Blake, my manager, I've known him since I was like 10 years old, and I was like, gosh, why not just start ranting like that? I was like, this is why I don't say anything,

like things get taken out of context, I'm just like, I don't know why I did that, I hope that made a little bit of sense to some people, it's like, nah, it's all right, let's go. Yeah, I think it was good, I think it was great. You were being honest,, I don't know why I did that. I hope that makes a little bit of sense. Some people is like, no, that's all right. Let's go. Yeah, I think it was good. I think it was great. You were being honest. And I don't think that you said anything

that was incorrect at all. The thing I'm starting to be concerned about, do allow your son to celebrate the championships for too long. Like, does he get a big head? A lot of guys use their children as human shields when they do something bad. You do the opposite. He like deflects the success from you, where he might get a big head because he's a champion.

The kid, all he does is win. Have you had a moment where you're like, hey, this is very hard to do and they only remember that you won one week at a time. We're onto the next one. Yeah. Yeah. It's been a real challenge keeping Ben humble in this time. Getting a little too big for his britches. He's getting a little cocky. We're humbling him now at time. He's getting a little too big for his britches. You know, he's getting a little, a little cocky. We're, we're humbling him now at home. You know, he's getting back in line. Yeah. Is he bored of it? Like all he does is win on Sunday. Does he love winning? Well, yeah, loves it. He definitely has an idea of what's going on for sure. Yeah. Yeah.

But back to your comments. So I do, I think that the reason why it kind of made a life of its own is that when we look at athletes we think that's all they care about. And you're just being honest. You're like hey I got other things like I love this. I care about it. Obviously if I didn't care about it the way I do I wouldn't be as good as I am. But it's weird like it's it's almost jarring for sometimes for people like oh these guys are humans too and they have other things going on in their lives. Yeah. Yeah. I think that's something that'll resonate with you guys as well. Like you live a life of doing a sports show

and talking to the masses day in, day out. And but like, that's not your whole life. That's what you do in a time period during the day. And then you go home and you do other stuff. You have a family, you have friends and you like, like when I think about my son, like what would be my goal for my son to be in his life? And friends. When I think about my son, what would be my goal for my son to be in his life? When I think about it, I want Bennett to live a full life. I want him to experience things. The way to experience things is try to be present where you are. When we're here doing this interview with you guys, my phone's up.

I'm not distracted to do my other things. We're going to enjoy 15, 20 minutes, wherever it is. Then I'm going to head out and I'm going to go spend some time with my son. And like, you just want to be present where you are and be have a full experience of things. And you know, that's my goal for him. I don't want him. I don't want to hit the most important thing in his life to be his job or to be something that he can accomplish. Like I want him to just live a full life and experience things. Yeah, it's a great, it's a a great great perspective. We'll get back to Scotty in a second. He's brought to you by Planet Fitness. Everyone can get strong at Planet Fitness.

Um, well, this is gonna be hard to explain then. Uh, it's a animated movie. Maybe Bennett will watch it when he gets a little older. I watch it with my kids a lot and it's basically like it's a baby and but he can talk like a human when

the other adults aren't around and he's like a mastermind. Is there a chance Bennett is a boss baby and he's actually giving you all the tips of the golf game. Yeah there is a chance. You know there was a there was a couple of photographs that we saw on Sunday after the rally like like what what are we? And it just, I mean, that's what made me think of it. Cause I saw the one where he was like, what, this is impressive. We do this every Sunday. He might be boss baby. When people, when I, when I hear people say like, uh, Scotty Shuffler, they get annoyed, like, Oh, I don't think he loves golf as much as I do. Or that, that type of thing. I think you love golf. You love winning at golf. You wouldn't be at the spot that

you're at right now if you didn't like deeply, deeply care about improving as golfer, but there are things that are more important in life than golf. So I have a list of things. You tell me if you love winning at golf more than these things and we can put some of the put the haters in their place mowing the lawn yeah okay ice cream yeah probably okay obeying lawful commands from a police officer overrated and then the last one Stu finer yes as much as I love you know one's Stu finer As much as I love you know good old Stu finer You really love golf yeah

What about the Dallas Cowboys? Yeah, that's that's a good one if the Dallas Cowboys won a Super Bowl I think that would be that would be up there for sure okay, so we found the line What's yeah, what's the conversion rate like one major for a Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl? Or would you give up too? Gosh, that's a good question. Yeah, good question. Yeah, another great question. Hard hitting for your afternoon. Gosh, I don't know. I would I would trade one for sure for a Super Bowl.

OK, I've been rooting for a Super Bowl for a long time as well. Long hard work gone into, you know, cheering on the boys and a Super Bowl for a long time as well. A lot of hard work has gone into cheering on the boys and arguably a lot more disappointed in football than there is in golf. How many waste managements? Oh, like 10. Oh, all right. Okay, yeah, there's the conversion. You know that I'm sure Stu Finder's going to be at the Ryder Cup for you.

Yeah. It's like in his backyard. Literally his backyard. He lives like, like, like a half a mile from Beth page. Well, that'd be fun. We know we need all the support we can get out there. Yeah. It would definitely be part of the, uh, you know, a rowdy New York crowd. Yeah. Are you excited? Do you, cause like I was saying this on a show I was doing just a second ago, like this is the time of season where I just miss Stu. I'm ready for Stu to get back. Do you, do you, do you miss Stu? Are you ready for him to be back on your Sundays? Yeah, I mean football football season is definitely something that we long for for sure.

That's what's great about football is like you only get it for this period of time in the year and then it ends and you're like crap. It's like it ends in February. You're like oh my gosh, what am I going to do until September? Yeah, you, and so you know, just it's exciting. Yeah. Yeah. Well, it's ready to do back. Ready to go. Watch the Longhorns. Watch the Cowboys. It's gonna be fun. Yeah. It's funny. You say that because it's like, what do you do starting February? Just win all the golf tournaments. That's pretty good. Yeah. You have to actually have the best. That was the most like relatable fan moment ever. But your offseason from football I think is better than anybody else's on planet earth. Yeah. You're just

like but I really wish I just won another major but I really wish it was football season. That's great. All right. I got a question. This probably you probably don't love when when people ask for tips on their golf game but I got a friend who I'm wondering if you could maybe fix him real quick. So I'm going to I'm going to lay it on you and you can tell me what he could work on. He said the thing about my golf game is that I slice my driver pretty often. I'm not super comfortable hitting with woods or hybrids. My five or six irons are inconsistent. Seven and nine are solid pitching wedge and sand wedge are fun for loft but i struggle chopping those i putt the ball i'm also just okay at putting that's the thing

that's the one thing yeah that's the one thing yeah do you have any tips gosh i don't know where to start i was trying to track it first then i just got lost yeah he just kept on going what do you think about uh this golfer our friend steven che what do you think about teeing it up in the fairway? Would you ever do that? I mean, no, not in the fairway, but teeing it up is actually a really good way to practice when you're learning golf. Ooh, but, but by no means when you're actually playing golf, would I be teeing ball in the fairway? He does that. Yeah. He tees it up in the fairway. I mean I respected for pace of play. Yeah Yeah, that's tragic for pace of play

Our resident golf expert Hank probably has a question for you. Yeah Hank Hank actually has gotten a lot better at golf So he's he's what do you think? I don't think Scotty cares. No Hank Oh, hey, Hank is really good at golf I gave if you're at a point in your life where you're beating Hank you are a very good golf You have to beat me last week. Do you have an internal monologue? When you make a bogey, Big Cow is talking about the bounce back stats. Do you get mad at yourself? Do you talk to yourself or do you just blank everything out when you're playing? No. When you're on the golf course, you're on the golf course for a long period of time, especially on Thursdays and Fridays when we're playing threes when you're out there for five and a half, six hours.

So your mind definitely wanders throughout the day. But I think what's most important is the time you spend over the ball. But then, yeah, when mistakes happen, I get really frustrated. I'm not sure exactly what I say. It depends on the day for sure. But yeah, I just get really frustrated. Early in my career, I would definitely take it too far to the point where it would have started affecting

what I would do after that. But I think getting the frustration out is what's important and leaving it there. And so, yeah, I may bang a club or two, I may slam something, but by the time I get over the next shot, I'm focused on what's at hand here. But I don't really have like a good, a good trick per se, that'd be like, hey, you know, you'll get on the next one. You're like, that's, that's

not gonna work. I just did it in the water. Like, what do you mean the next one about to make double here? Yeah. So I think it's more just trying to reset, like, let the frustration be there. And then we start walking to the next shot. It's like start playing the head and figuring out what you're going to do to shoot a score. There you go, Hank. We should talk real quick.

Happy Gilmore 2 is out on Friday. How are you at acting? Grade yourself, Scottie Scheffler, the actor in Happy Gilmore 2. I mean, maybe like a C- you know, passing grade. Okay. I'd give myself a passing grade, but I'm definitely not going to give myself much more than that. I mean-

How many lines did you have? I had a few lines. I mean, it was fun. I'll let y'all watch the movie. We, I mean, so we watched it on Monday night and I was, I mean, I was surprised by how much we enjoyed the movie. I mean, it's so hard with comedies to follow up the original especially when the original is such a classic like that they did a really really good job of you

know kind of remembering the original movie by having a lot of that stuff in there like a lot of reminiscing about the old movie while still having like a good storyline for the new one and lots of really funny stuff I mean I was cracking up like a lot of the guys that came in and did their cameos did an amazing job and you know Adam they did such a good job on set of keeping you relaxed. Like when you walk into this area and all of a sudden we're filming a movie that's something that I'm extremely uncomfortable with and they just do a job of making you feel at home, being your friend. Like on set was so amazing. I mean, it was really, really relaxed. And you can tell why Adam's so good at producing movies

and why he always has the same guys come back time and time again, because they have fun and they do a really good job and they make everybody comfortable. So amongst your peers, other golfers, who was the best actor? I mean, the one I laughed the hardest at, I actually texted Xander this the other day,

was Xander's lines in the movie are really, really funny. Him and Ricky did a really good job. And so it said it was all tourists. I mean, to be honest with you, I thought everybody did a great job. I mean, I can't imagine how difficult it is for real actors to deal with us trying to make a movie not look terrible.

And they did a really good job of like helping us along and just doing a really good job with the movie. I mean, it was really entertaining and really funny. Yeah. That's a good mental game thing too. Again, let them be better at acting. You can handle the golf. You got the sneaky mental game going. Get them a little off.

They're like, oh yeah, you can't do this. Are we going to win the Ryder Cup? That's the plan. We got to win the Ryder Cup. Please? Please. Hey, nobody wants to win the Ryder Cup more than I do. Okay. Okay. Can you, can you, I guess there are a lot of rules, but like it would be awesome

if you just like called your own number for every match and you just like, like a chess master when they play like 10 people at once, you just do that. You walk from the first hole to like the 13th to your second shot, then back to the first. Yeah. No, the Ryder Cup's going to be fun. It'll be exciting. It's going to be back on home soil. And Keegan, I mean, Keegan's been amazing so far. I mean, he's been great for us. He's extremely fired up.

And I think the whole team right now is really excited about getting there. It's coming home. That's what we've been saying. Does Rory have any more tips for you on how to improve your game and make you more dominant? No, no since I had really, really give me a good

were you thinking about making that change? Because I know the story got written about like Rory McIlroy told Scottie Scheffler, hey, here's what you should change about your putter. And then you did that because Rory said it, but there might be more nuance to it than that. Yeah, I think Rory said something about me switching putters on coverage somewhere, but I have a putting coach, Phil Cain, who helps with all that stuff. And he'd been trying to get me to do that for a while. And he'd also been trying to get me to switch to the claw grip for a while.

And I finally just gave into Phil's pestering of me trying new things and gave in. A lot of this works with our Phil's been tremendous. Yeah. It's almost not fair how you're getting at putting now. That's it. It's really, are you good for golf? You tell me. No, I mean, you're, you're, you're dominant and you are fun to watch. And so we, we respect greatness on this show. Yeah. Did you, did you happen to see the Phil Mickelson tweet? I did see the Phil Mickelson tweet. It was quite a tweet. It was quite a tweet. It was a great tweet. It was a great tweet. He said you weren't going to win anything. And I actually think he threw in. So I think the real treat was hot take. Scotty's not going to win anything in 2025 until the Ryder Cup. I think he was

just throwing in the Ryder Cup because he couldn't go against USA there. I think he really wanted to say you're not going to win anything. I would agree with that. I think that's what he was trying to say. But you can't say that America is going to lose the Ryder Cup when you're an American. So it's like kind of yeah. We'll cook it up because Phil Phil's not done. Phil's very smart. Yeah. Yeah. But that was a really dumb tweet because you've won everything. Yeah. Didn't didn't age very well. Yeah. I'm very pleased with yeah, I have a very important question for you the At the the open. I'm trying to remember what hole it was. I think it was the 17th. Did you fart? Oh Yeah, that was me. It was actually

Was that just a complete accident? I mean, no, I mean, it's you're out there for like six hours. Like you're eating some different food over there. So that's going to happen. Did you know that it was that loud? No, I mean, you never know what the boom mics there. You never know what they're going to pick up. I'm actually I'm definitely surprised it hasn't happened more in the past, picking

up stuff like that. But I, I, I literally didn't think anything about it. And then after we got inside Xander was showing me the video, he pulled up the video and I see myself standing on 17. I was like, Oh, I know what this is. Wait, did it, did no, none of the reporters asked you? No. Wow. Bad journalism. Yeah. That's a big, that's a big get. How would you grade your fart? I thought it was very funny. It was great. It was a good robust. Yeah. It was kind of got a nice sound to it. Yeah. Cause we were outside. It was perfect. Yeah. Cause like that actually, now that I'm thinking about it, like that's actually a nervous situation. Like what if you had like a little like toot and it was

like, Ooh, that's Scotty's farts. Like farts like yeah I would judge you. What the hell. Like what was that man's part. That was a man's part. Great. It's smell. No we're outside. So I mean I'm blonde. Somebody else caught it. It wasn't me. All right. I got one last question is a row back question. R. H. O. B. C. K. dot com promo code take 20% off your first purchase. Q zips polos, hoodies, joggers, shorts, row back dot com promo code take. This has been awesome. Scotty. We love having you on a happy Gilmore to out Friday, July 25th, which is today when this is airing. Uh, this is an important question. I'm going to see how you're going to handle it. Cause you're actually the perfect

guy to ask this question. And this is something we ask a lot of guests. Do you think you're a better golfer or person? You know, I think I think right now that's a good question. I would say that I definitely fall short as a person. Like it would be tough. It would be tough to say that I'm, you know, the best person in the world. This is, I think, I think I'm getting you higher on the person. Yeah. But this is, this is a conundrum for it. Because usually when people say better human being than he is a golfer, we're like, no, wait a second. This guy's far and away. The best golfer in the world. He's not top number one, but the fact that you're so humble right that you acknowledge shortcomings, it's making me think. Let me ask you a different way.

Have you come to grips with the fact that you will never be a better person than you are a golfer? Yeah. I mean, I think it's like, I just, you know, I think my wife's in the next room if you want her to come here. I just got the best part of her phone right now of all my, you know, transgressions. So you can tell that I'm very far from a perfect person. Damn it. You got us because this is one of our favorite like cliches that like it started when JJ Watt retired and they're like, JJ Watt is good if a football player was as he was, he's

a better person. It's like, listen, he's a great person, but that just can't be true because he's one of the best football players of all time. You can't be one of the best 100 humans of all time. It's not saying you're a bad human. It's just saying you're the best golfer. There's no way you'll ever be a better person than golfer. Yeah, I think that's, that's a fair option. God damn it. Now he's the best person. Now you are the best. It's like Schrodinger's cat. Completely checkmate us. We've been doing this bit for years and this is the first person to be like, yeah, you know what? I, I, I, I gotta get better as a person, but I'm probably never going to be a better person. This is

really tough for us. I think he's a better person. I think you as good. Yeah. I think as good a human being as you're a golfer Tiger Tiger Maybe you could make the argument Tiger was a better golfer over his career. Yeah, it's got a chef Yeah, so you've got some room to go go up But the more you win the harder that conversation is gonna be for us to have yeah Yeah, I would say plenty of room to improve on the person front and definitely plenty of room to prove as a golfer You check me. Yes. Well done. Yeah, you're done as a golfer. You check made. Well done. Yeah. Well done. Scotty. Scotty. You're the best man. Thank you so much for your time.

We really appreciate it. Happy Gilmore to anytime you want to come on. We love having you on recurring guest and congrats again man. Incredible season. Let's go win the Ryder Cup. Yeah. Let's do it.

Henry is sitting in the the big boy chair the biggest boy chair sitting in the big boy chair He's a pill that seat out nicely Hank. Yeah. Oh, oh look at that This feels right He's continuing the trend from Mount Rushmore to take shots at everyone Hank no pfts whatever yeah Yeah, if you stick I want to be to me when he's down. We also had a great Mount Rushmore today uh But my fire fest is is my rush more related. I guess I might I might have had a bad day at work yesterday I might have been lashing out left and right. Mm-hmm Well, I think I what I said I think was spot-on like this is every summer it literally is just you know

Any action towards you and then it's just over and get more. No, I don't want you to grow or get more mature. That's what makes this fun. Well, I just kept coming up to me all day yesterday telling me how useless I am. Yeah. Like when, when AWL say they're excited for Mount Rushmore season, I think what they're really saying is they're excited for Hank lash out season because that's what it is. That's the feature part of the summer. The beauty about it is we keep getting older and Hank stays the same age. He's like Peter Pan. Yeah. But yeah, that was, that was, you know, after, after some reflection, I felt a little bit, a little bit bad about that. Max, I somewhat apologize.

So he is useful. Yeah. That's sometimes except somewhat, somewhat except somewhat. Except that's, that's fair. But you show me a good loser I'll show you a loser Hank Hank takes it personally. He takes it seriously and that's why I love having them on my team I'd much rather have a guy like Hank on there that just Lashes out and goes nuclear against everybody when they're in their mouth then a guy that doesn't care at all about Mount Rushmore Yeah, and it's Scotty Scotty's words have have actually resonated with me I've been thinking about him a lot just just let it all out by the timer stepping over the ball on your next shot

You got a you got to be focused. You think you're gonna be able to be Scotty Shuffler No, but I think in terms of dealing with frustrations. That's a good way to think about it Mm-hmm, like it's like I was wondering if he maybe just like internalizes it or doesn't get frustrated But he was like no you can get frustrated. You should get frustrated. Just get it all out. And yesterday was me getting it all out. Okay. Wait, wait, wait. So your takeaway from Scotty was you're like lashing out and being mean to people and taking shots at people is totally fine. That's healthy part of the process. Yes. Okay. I like that. As long as you're as long as the next Mount Rushmore

is clear. Yeah. Yeah. Next my Rushmore. You know, we're okay. Your mind is clear. So that was my second there. I was like, did Scotty Scheffler make Hank more mature? And it's like, no, he actually just told Hank, Hank just interpreted Scotty Scheffler's words into you're doing nothing wrong, dude. Yeah, according to Hank, just don't be mad before you record the next episode. I have something else. Scottie said, he goes over the ball like five, like the next ball. He said, I'm just like you, Hank.

Me and you react to adversity and failures. No, see, that's, now you're gas out. Yeah, Max is right too though. He does go, he does stand over the ball like a hundred times. No, he goes over to's now your gas out. Max is right too though. He does go, he does stand over the ball like a hundred times. No, he goes over to the next ball like five minutes later. Yeah. We do a Mount Rushmore every two days. Yeah. So that's and also you did carry 48 hours. You did carry it into the next Mount Rushmore. But that was, was that before or after we did Scotty Scheffler? It was after. No, it was good yesterday.

I mean, kind of. Me and Pftie crushed it. No, no. Oh, wait. Oh, wait. Are you saying good, like doing well on Mount Rushmore or being nice to us? Being in a good mindset. Okay.

So being nice to us is irrelevant. It's about the mindset. Okay. All right. Got it. It's about being nice to yourself. That's what Scotty was saying. You have to forgive yourself for your transgressions. It has nothing to do with. Well, I got to be, what he was

saying is you got to be focused. Like you got to be able to, you know, hyper-focus on what's in front of you. Sometimes in order to win and what's in front of me, like shots have to be taken. Yeah. Like it's not like I'm not in front of you. You have to basically push everyone down. That's Mount Rushmore season. Right. It's a competition. Like you gotta, you gotta win. Yeah. You got, who do you think loves their family more? Scottie Scheffler with his kid or Hank with his 18 kids? It's tough. It's tough. Probably Scottie. You really love your 18 kids. I do. A lot. A lot. A lot. A lot. A lot. A lot of 18 18 kids sometimes 27 kids. Yeah, sometimes 36. Yeah, sometimes

Go ahead 54 Remember All right Your Mount Rush wait, sir. Sorry your fire fest. You're see Hank just in summation your fire fest is Don't change anything. No false. My fire fest is I was lashing out yesterday and I apologize for it. You're going to do it again. No if I hit a bad shot, my goal is to not hit any bad shots. Yeah. But if you hit a

bad shot, Scotty told you it's okay to, to walk up to your coworkers and tell them they're useless. Not specifically, but that it's okay to lash out. Okay. Yeah. By the way, I love the countdown clock. The countdown clock to football is good. I think it could be bigger, Zach. That's my only note. Like I would, I would like a bigger clock. I would like multiple clocks. And I was telling them, I want this clock to explode when football hits. Like when it hits zero, I want some sort of,

some sort of like fireworks or pyrotechnics that comes out of it. And then he asked me what other clocks I think we should have. What do you think about this one? Big cat wait, but wait, wait before I want to hear the next clock, but I actually, I disagree on the explode. I think it should always be resetting until the next football game starts. So like when we're taping on Sunday night, it should be the countdown to Monday night football. So we're like, football's right there. That's another clock. Yeah, that's fine. Is we have a separate clock for a countdown on Monday. What do you think about this one though? Countdown clock till Hank turns 40. Love it. Let's do it. Yeah. Put it up there.

Yeah. Yeah. We should just have the whole wall be countdown clocks. Yeah, I love that. Yeah. Yeah, we got to count down to the to the World Cup. That's I was gonna say what's crazy that you're gonna be 40. Yeah. Oh, we will not still be doing this. Yeah, we will just make a think about it all day every day when he's at work. What the fuck are you gonna do? You're gonna be doing this podcast Yeah, you are that's that would be crazy. Yeah, you are You're gonna be 60 years old lashing out at people Yeah, cuz he screwed up the Mount Rushmore of that easily digestible foods

Okay, I love that we should get a couple countdown clocks going Zach get on that Pft, what's your fire fest? I mean, my fire fest is that I'm sick, which, which sucks. So woke up in the middle of the night, cold sweat, chills, aches, not looking for any sympathy. Um, but I did happen to Google the effects of a Brown recluse spider bite this morning. Oh, and I'll just put it at that. So all the are those all the effects? Chills killed you from the grave. You have a spot on you like you have a

Sometimes I read that it can take hours sometimes days for the symptom to show up. So this could have it could have happened a couple days ago after I talked to all that shit. I don't I don't think that's what it is, but I did. I did notice that I got a spider bite on my arm. So I don't, I don't think it's a brown recluse. It doesn't look like a brown recluse bite, but sometimes they change. Wouldn't it? Uh, wouldn't the, the bite like have like a bunch of marks on it and stuff? I guess when it first pops up, it just looks like

a normal spider bite. What does this circle look like? That's it. Yeah. I would when it first pops up it just looks like a normal spider bite. What does the circle look like? That's it Yeah, I would show it to you. It's like it's right up here on the bicep I also think that I would have noticed the brown recluse on my arm. It's not a small spider So well, I said there's only one you said and you could it could be when you're sleeping It could have been that one. There's only one but he killed it one. Yeah, I killed it No, no other ones that one might have gotten me before I got it. Got it. You know, kind of like both two worthy competitors going out on their swords. Even though you killed it a week ago.

I killed on Friday. OK, so that was almost a week ago. Almost a week ago. And yeah, I put it out like 25 percent chance. It's a brown recluse spider bite. That's making me feel and you have more Brown recluse spiders in your house. No, I don't. There's just the one. I haven't seen any other ones. But but it is like, I'm glad that I'm going through this right now as opposed to next week on grit week, because that would suck. It's like my body knows, hey, you got to get in shape for next week. Pain is just weakness leaving the body.

So I'm going to be at maximum strength next week. Iron sharpens iron. So if it is a brown recluse spider bite, it's like at the end of the day, we're just two competitors going out there on the field of battle. And I think I got the final victory against it, but he might've, he might've dinged me up on the way out. But that's okay. That's okay. We'll definitely wasn't one of his other like brothers getting revenge for you killing its friend. Definitely not. No spiders are dumb. They don't they don't know revenge. They don't understand vengeance. But yeah that's it. That's pretty much it. Pretty clean week besides that overall. Nothing really to complain about. Very excited about grit week next week. Yes. Very excited. Very excited

for grit week. All right. My fire fest is, uh, we, we've, we've talked about this. I mean, PFT we're 40. Um, I'm, I'm getting close to a moment where I have to make a decision of whether I should retire or not from, from, from sports and activity, fun activities with the boys. My body's broken. I've, we played softball 10 PM last night. I have like four injuries. I puked after the game because it was so hot and I was so uncomfortable that I pulled trigger after the game and I had been running so much that, uh, I don't know what to do. I'm either going to do yoga or testosterone. Those are my two options. So I, I don't know if people want to weigh

in and tell me which one I should do, but something has to fix because I can barely walk right now. And I played softball. I think you need to look at what other very successful 40 year old athletes do like LeBron James. Oh, and I don't think he'd do either one of those two things. So I need to go to Miami for a couple of weeks. Good. My back hurt. Yeah. Good. And maybe, yeah, just like take a, an extended break to regain weight that you lost in a mysterious illness. By the way, did you see what Jeff Teague put up on Instagram to apologize? Yeah. He was just joking. He went create mode. Yeah. That's like pro level notes app that he used to apologize. But yeah, once you turn 40 and

you start exercising at all, you just collect injuries. You wake up in the morning and your foot hurts and you're like, well, I guess my foot's going to hurt for the rest of my life. Yoga you got to come. I don't think you're doing yoga. No, I think it's test. Yeah. My problem is I in my head, I can still do everything. Like I can still in my head and I enjoy it. That's the, that's the real issues. I enjoy going out with the boys playing softball. What was that? To new finish. No finish. I enjoy going out with the boys playing softball. Yeah. What was that? No, I'm saying there's other activities you can go out with the boys and participate

in competitive sports like things that aren't going to hurt you as much. I don't want to play golf, OK? I like to play softball. It's fun. It's fun with the boys. It is. I'll play golf too, but I don't I

We keep it to real sports. Yeah, okay, uh Like playing pick up hoops here. I Don't know. I don't want to give it up. I don't want to give it up. I've got a possible solution for you Yeah, what about tennis? No, we get into tennis. Oh, and then we start becoming tennis boys and then the pod numbies go way up the roof. No, pickleball. I would never play pickleball. I don't know. I don't have a solution besides golf, testosterone, testosterone, golf and testosterone are my two solutions, but I just, it sucks because I do. We had had fun max Hanks not on the team, by the way, anymore PFT. So don't worry. Uh, it's just me and max memes. So he's, he's

out retired too. Yeah. I, we had fun even though it was a million degrees last night. Sorry, I want to play if I I'm not playing regular season, not being able to play the playoffs. What's the point? I don't know. Going out with the boys, going out with the boys, having fun. Exactly.. That's that's the fun part but yeah, I I literally can't like my my I didn't sleep last night because my leg I Like one leg is hurt and the other leg is I keep getting cramped up It sucks. It sucks. Nothing worse than like was that your first game of the season? No second that I played in is our guys a team, but yeah, I it was 90 degrees out. That was the problem

It had the hot wind so it was really the elements were fucking me up bad Like I was drenched in sweat and then I had to pull trigger I was sitting on the bench after the game and I was like if I don't puke right now I might pass out because I'm just like so exhausted and I puked made some room and Cuz I took a sip of water. I was like, oh I need I need room and because I took a sip of water I was like oh I need I need room and I had to make room so there's a an ultra competitive 16-inch softball league that plays right next to my house mm-hmm and I stopped by yes I was taking Blake on a walk yesterday we walked past the game that's going on and I had to just sit and marvel as a spectator like really competitive 16-inch

softball oh yeah is way more exciting to watch than pickleball Oh, yeah, these guys were screaming they were they were placing their line drives like within a 10 foot span of where they were aiming It was awesome. These dudes rock Yeah I used to play him one on on this one is the one we play and now is not really competitive Which I think that's probably the step down But I just turning getting to that age where you're like I want to keep doing the fun things with my friends But I physically can't is just brutal. So I think it's testosterone. Mm-hmm. I think that's a good answer Yeah, dude, like when you go on the the testosterone supplemental stuff you end up looking awesome, right?

I don't know if you've seen Alex Jones recently. Yeah, that's all man. The guy's gonna live forever Yeah, he looks great. He took up smoking too recently, which that's fucking cool as shit to take up smoking. That's bad. Five years old. Yeah. Zach, you got one? I do. I do a fire fest this week. Uh, something happened a little earlier in the week. Pretty eyeopening experience for me. Uh, as you guys know, uh, going through the office, sometimes there's like some leftover takeout orders that linger around and they're like, hey, would you like some fries? Maybe you'd like some chicken strips.

So I did take the offer for some chicken strips before I left the office. Means was kind enough to give me a ride home, and then I accidentally, unbeknownst to me, I was like, all right, it's late, we're here in the evening time, let me grab some dinner. So I walked into the McDonald's with McDonald's.

And I've. grab some dinner so I walked into the McDonald's with McDonald's. Oh no Zach. I didn't think about it. It was so much shame. Oh no Zach. You brought sand to the beach. I 100% did. I didn't want to leave the rest of Tenders and Memes' car so I brought them with me to the McDonald's. It just didn't register that I was walking in there with it. So you were standing there in McDonald's holding McDonald's, ordering McDonald's. Yes. It looks like I'm about to have a complaint with my current order, but I was really just there to order. It was very eye opening and we're going to diet so hard. That's awesome. It's like when you go into a gas station, you've already got a 20 ounce

soda in your hand and you show the guy guy you're like, I already got this You tell people McDonald's like hey, I brought this from home. Yeah, I'm not stealing it Yeah, you always declare it you declare it as you walk in you're like just so you know bringing this bringing this in yeah. Oh No, Zach, that's a tough one. So just never again. Yeah, I don't know if it's like a routine I've built and it's like autopilot I need to go and they're all everything's so close or what but we're just making insane life changes starting today when you did go Did you get did you get the nuggets? I went so yeah They had a they had a deal on the apps of two fries 20 nuggets So that was an instant cop and then I the snack wraps back so I wrote some snack wraps

Oh, hell yes that crap so back. Okay, so was these burgers. Yeah they were singles. Wait what. When is it. Wait. Say the whole order now. Hold on. Say the whole order now. That was the order. I was in private Max. You just brought that was something that's on me. People know the people want to know the order the people want to know the order. Okay. It was just two fries and 20 nights because of the deal I had a couple snack wraps and then I went cheeseburgers with single cheeseburgers and Those were like a roadie situation 20 nuggets two fries and extra tender. Yes, those didn't eat the tenders. He didn't eat the tender. I did eat That was like an office those okay, how many sack wraps only two okay?

And just two cheeseburgers. Yes, but single patty. I'd like to prep where these are the Nashville tenders We got last week is that that yeah, you know the big ones. Yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah The no you just went you just did your regular order You're just like instead of a double cheeseburger. I'm gonna add a snapper single and go snack wrap Yeah, and also single cheese chicken burgers Right. Yes, two of them, but it was singles though, right? So like half of what the usual what I would consider dinner. Oh, that's brutal. No dessert

No, there was so much shame walking out of McDonald's. I couldn't even think of eating ever again half of what the usual what I would consider dinner. That's brutal. No dessert. No, there was so much shame walking out of McDonald's. I couldn't even think of eating ever again. Have you guys ever walked into a fast food place with a fast food item from a different fast food restaurant? No. No. I did that a couple of times, but it was because like I liked what a burger burgers when I was in Texas, but I would, their fries sucked. So I would get fries from McDonald's and then

bring the fries from McDonald's into what a burger I would do. I do that with, um, Uber eats. Like there's one place I like, I like crab ring goons from this one place. And I like the Thai food from another place and I'll double order. I'll get one. I'll get both. Cause I'm like, I wanthmm I'll get one I'll get both because I'm like I want I Basically make my perfect meal through multiple uber eats the only problem with that Similar what Zach's talking about is when they both show up at the same time. That's always a little awkward where you're like oh We're just like doing a uber eats gangbang here. Yeah, you got kind of explain yourself So yeah, but Zach, that rocks. That's

awesome. That's a dude's rock. It happens. Zach also only eats one meal a day. So it's fine. I've offered him food in the middle of the day and he turns it down. Yeah. No, he's a, he, he's allowed to eat whatever he wants for dinner. Cause you only eat one meal a day. I don't want to get sluggy. That's how the, the eating. That's a real diet. It's called OMAD. Yeah. Yeah. Memes, would you like to say anything about Justin Fields, which we talked about at the beginning of the show,

but how are you feeling? This is actually, we're taping this part early in the day. So this is instant reaction. We don't really know as we're sitting here. So we're getting instant memes reaction. Are you OK? I'm not OK. I'm down bad right now.

There's no update. The update was that he was standing behind a tree and then got carted off so nobody knows what's happening. If it's serious. Will you let me give you a spin zone or are you not ready for it now? Let's hear it.

That doesn't sound like you're ready for it. His phone is just playing a loop of the meme of the guy drinking bleach and killing himself. It's just a constant loop that's playing in front of him. I mean, all right. I don't think you're, I don't think he's mentally, do you think he's mentally ready for it? No, no, because he already got, he already got mad at me if I tried it out and he got yelled at me. It's a bad take. It's not a bad take here. You know what? I'll, I'll tell it to you. PFT, not to memes. Take your headphones off memes. Um, not hurt it. It's, it's not that big of a deal because Justin Fields isn't good. And this might actually be a good thing in the long run. That's not a bad spin zone. Like, but, but, but the only thing, the best part about Justin Fields is when he's on your team

You can get excited because you're like what if he's good this year, right? Of course, you're missing you're missing out on the on the entire month of August ask yourself. What if he's just awesome what if they get a quarterback that's better than Justin Fields for this season or They get a great draft pick and there's a lot of quarterbacks coming up. Like, again, this is not to memes. I'm actually, this is actually how I feel. So I'm like doing it in peace. What memes?

It's a good take. It's a bad take. It's a good take. Justin Fields was never going to win you, like was never gonna get you to the playoffs. Justin Fields was never gonna win you a lot of games. Justin Fields is gonna be exciting a little bit and then not do much and you would be stuck

in the kind of mediocrity. Like if Patrick Mahomes gets carted off in preseason, Chiefs fans being like, I wanna drink bleach, that makes sense, that's your season, you had a real chance. There was no, Justin no just feels that good yeah you're trying to be nice those bear to work terrible I have an offensive line what about the average what about the 27 points allowed on defense what about the terrible he never had a chance what about

four to as a star it was that because of him or the defense what you manage the game you win the game your quarterback. All right, but you do What's the ceiling for him on the Jets? Our offensive line is good. Our running back is good. Okay, we have Okay, I'm right. I don't want to get hurt. I'm not gonna get hurt. I want to be healthy I want to be healthy. I just want that clear. I'm just saying if he is hurt This would have been Justin Fields best chance to be good Some coaching real quick big cat It's too soon for memes. Yeah, no, that's why I said that's why I was saying it's you That's what I was saying. Yeah, not to memes and I actually am like I'm not trying to be like a dick here

I'm actually trying to like be like hey this could end up working out long term But yeah, well we could talk about it later. Like, yeah I mean, it's like right when your buddy breaks up with somebody Yeah The first thing you don't say is is like this is going to be so good for you in the long No, I and that's not what i'm saying. It's not like it's not like an awesome thing I'm not like oh you should be rooting for this. I'm just it's more like a trying to spin zone But yeah, i'm i'm being sensitive to the situation. Here's what I would love to see for your jets memes

Joe milton to the New York Jets Can I say a name that that is a better quarterback than Justin Fields who Joe Milton? Kirk Cousins Kirk Cousins was so bad at the end last year Kirk Cousins is a better quarterback than Justin Fields means and his prime Kirk has a better quarterback than just you see that Denver game last year. I saw it, but I'm just telling you like that is a Your season might end up turning it. That's where I'm trying to come from like that's a guy who you could maybe Go a little bit further in the season have more fun Like think about that now you see that's not bad

No Kirk sucks too what about it's too early it's too early make a play for Aaron Rodgers all right see that was mean that was mean what he did I wasn't being mean memes you agree that was mean that was mean that was way more mean than me trying to help pick you up and being like hey this could work out in the long run. You're right. Does mean. Yeah. All right. Thank you. You kind of saved me. What's the thinking behind Aaron Rodgers. Just to make you mad. Just to be mean. Well that was it. That was a great good cop bad cop that. Yeah. Yeah. Hundred eighty degrees. You say me. No. Like when you get off the zoom like because

I could see memes face. I could see how he gets like he he I was on the kill. I was top on the kill list for a second there. But as soon as you get off the zoom and like you you leave the zoom I'm going to go up to me and be like dude what a fucking dick that was by PFT and he's like yeah and I'm I'd be fine. And for the record like I'm only saying that to memes because I'm behind the safety of a screen. Yeah. And you helped me out in the room. I owe you a solid. I owe you a save my life versus memes. Uh, get out, get out of saving my, save my life against memes card. Get off of hit list card. Yes. I owe you one. Yeah. Uh, I do want to see Joe Milton play

though. Me and Max were talking before we started recording me and Max love Joe Milton And we want to see him play football and it sucks that he's on the Cowboys Can we because we can't really root for him so any quarterback that gets hurt? I think I'm just gonna be like Joe Milton get Joe Milton and he's not get throw the ball mom Broadway Joe He is not he is good look so fun Doing right now I've already been looking at his training camp highlights. They not go to quarterbacking. What are we doing right now? I've already been looking at his training camp highlights. They not good at quarterbacking. What are we doing? In orange 106 yards, dude. That party is hard to go like I don't really have a response to that. Okay. Yeah. You know that

it's awesome. Check me. Oh, I don't have a response. Would you say that would be so fun as a starting quarterback in the NFL by Joe Milton debates always go he's not good. And then, and then it's just a, a, a ticking time. We should actually put up a timer. Like someone just says, Oh, he threw an orange on your, as I'm like, well fuck now I'm 106. It was 106 yards. All right. Uh, let's, uh, well grit week, grit week, get excited. Grit week, Monday. Awesome. Grit week planned. Get excited guest big guess big big guest ah memes Numbers you go first.
