You know who else was on South Beach Sessions?
Jury Brockheimer.
Yes.
One of the best of what he does, correct?
We got to put together.
What is the list of South Beach Sessions guests that would be the best at what they do?
You're looking to rebrand it as masters of their craft with a creative pivot that involves Manu.
No, you laugh.
Masterclass, Manu.
Greg.
Greg, you laugh, but you laugh and cough, but at a lot.
high lie. This is not up for dispute. This is one of the
greatest athletes in the sport right now.
Yeah. Even though he wouldn't. One of the most accomplished.
He's the Joey of his time.
Okay. Him and Goat Cherry. Two goats.
The goat? This is a goat conversation?
I mean, Gocherry's got goat almost in his name.
One's a front quarter. One's a back quarter. Different positions. But yeah,
those are the two. But in terms of back court, you're not going to find a better dude in
the United States, certainly. And, you know, it's a great way to embrace what is
Canon on our show, which is our great cyclone team. And like I said, it's an episode. The goat of
their craft. Nobody's playing mid-court, huh? Bill Lawrence. That's another one. That is a great
question, Greg, that you ask. We're talking about the best in your class. This is an international
sport, okay? And when Mike says accomplished, he's not kidding. There aren't that many people playing it,
but he's one of the best. He is a champion. So you're not wrong when you say, Manu,
would be in the goat conversation as a highlight player presently.
That's right, which is why I've strengthened his case now.
And I hope you would agree to interview the great Manu.
This goat conversation is presented by Frank's Red Hot.
Make every dish the greatest.
Eat the goat.
I think I'd be willing to do that.
I like the idea of that Greg Cody has, Greg Cody.
Greg Cody doesn't spend a lot of time complimenting me.
Greg Goody.
Brutal.
I feel like he's just like a...
tick late.
It was a tick late.
Just a tick late.
Just a tick late.
But we don't overanalyze around here, so it was fine.
It's brutal.
They used to call me that when I was a kid.
What am I going to do?
Ignore the obvious?
What were you saying, Dan?
I do want to warn you, though, there is a highly probable chance that Manu just declines.
You're the owners of the team.
Yeah, we can't make him do anything.
I sure you can.
He'll just threaten to retire.
It's his move.
Yeah, he does that all the time.
Oh, maybe you can get that announce.
that'll make news certainly.
Sure will.
Are you guys saying that you are willing to do the interview with me?
No, no, no, no.
We'll be out there for support.
No, no, no, no.
We are not the host of South Beach sessions.
That's you.
We'll handle the awkward hello.
Yes, we'll handle the hello.
Get him out of his comfort zone, you know.
Open them up a little bit.
I'd like a behind-the-scenes that studies how it is that you guys plan on.
What you're doing, what is happening here, obviously,
Greg has given me the great compliment of he listens to this show and he likes it.
He thinks, he thinks this property is the best thing that I've done professionally.
I don't know why he thinks that I have not asked him.
You flatter me.
You don't listen to anything.
Your kids, I get mad at your kids because they don't read your work.
They don't actually participate in your work except on your podcast.
I glance at it.
By now they know what you're saying.
Greg has any number of entertainment options.
I don't think he's listening to anything quite the way he's listening to this,
which genuinely confuses.
Well, other than his own podcast.
That guy listens like a hawk.
Twice a week.
Or an eagle.
Once as a listener, once as a critic.
Right, exactly.
And now, now that we have a YouTube presence, once as a hearer and once as a seer.
So now we're up to three views on a singular episode.
Remember, we asked you about loving Southbeat sessions.
I do love SPS.
He just wants to talk about himself.
I have referred to it as your career opus.
And the reason is that it's.
It's serious.
It's thoughtful.
It goes in depth.
A little too psychiatrist couchy for me at times, but I think it's very worthwhile, very rich entertainment.
Do I listen to everyone front to back?
No.
I would say I listen to most of them.
And the other ones I delete because I've never heard of the guy.
You had one guy on who had the name of another famous person.
And I thought it was that guy.
but it turned out to be somebody with a famous name.
I want to know which one this I've heard of.
Who is it?
I'd like to know.
Chris, I'm ready to pivot.
Yeah.
Not South Beach sessions anymore.
The Greg Cody show.
Oh.
We need Manu on the Greg Cody show.
With Greg Cody.
Let's wrestle for the rights to Manu.
Okay.
It's a terrible idea.
You're as big as a bear.
Manu, this guy almost died during one of your serves a couple years ago.
Tiger Woods is.
coming back and I actually saw you guys excited about this.
Yeah, my third favorite player or team to watch.
I feel bad for Tiger Woods at this stage in his career because of the amount of physical
pain, I imagine he must be in to try and climb back to wherever it is.
Jack Nicholas resides on the history of this sport after burying his dad, after going through
the most human things in public and humiliating things.
Like if you don't think it's a physical trauma that Tiger wears on his body,
to have, like, whatever wreckage he caused with having to apologize to his mother in front of people in Orlando that ends with his career, like, literally derailing off the road because whatever's happening with his wife chasing him with a golf club.
Forgive me if I've got some of them.
Bingo!
Yeah, no, this is the energy that you need to keep when you interview Manu.
Tiger Woods returning tonight is actually something that Cody's are golfers.
They love golf.
The idea that they would talk about this more than any other golfer still,
when he's so far, like he's broken as a physical human being by what life and fame and excellence have brought,
so much that his mother buried his father in an unnamed grave.
Okay. Earl Woods just wanted to be the father to a prodigy, a God who told us his kid would become king, and then he did.
But because that kid learned how to cheat on his wife from his old man,
Like, that's what happened to Tiger Woods at the destruction, the fault line of a woman buries a man in an unmarked grave because he taught their boy how to cheat on women.
That's where I learned it.
Tiger Woods comes back human on video like slurring through pills because God knows what kind of pain his body is in.
I mean, what do you think it feels like to swing your back like that through back surgeries and have doctors cut you open again and again and again and never get it right to.
actually relieve the pain, and he can't quit it.
I'm actually excited to see him, but I'm a little skeptical that he's, because this is a
team game, this TGL is four, like there's four guys on a team.
You play three.
He's inserting himself into the lineup during the championship.
Yeah, it's a Jason Tatum situation here.
I just wanted Dan's hole like preamble to end with anyways.
He's shooting a couple shots into a simulator today.
For our hometown Jupiter links.
He's playing a video game.
What do you need back?
He's playing on a hole called the Pyraman.
me. It's like Gooney golf. That's a tough hole. The fairway, like, the further you go,
goes more narrow. Dan was doing the SVP Masters intro. He's just playing a video game today.
It's just a TV show. We just want to see if his back's okay. You can save it for a man corner.
