2:00

sports. We got the whole squad. We haven't had

2:02

the whole squad in a while. Frankie is back.

2:05

We got a huge week at some

2:07

point before this podcast even comes out.

2:09

We're just going to be on an island

2:11

in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. All

2:13

of us. As far as you can go,

2:16

really. I mean, you could keep going, I

2:18

guess, when you would get to what? China?

2:20

China. China. But yeah, we're going to Hawaii

2:22

and it's going to be incredible. Great

2:25

to be back. I had the week off here of podcasts.

2:27

So it's nice to see you guys

2:30

here. It's very exciting times in

2:32

the four play world. We are going to Hawaii.

2:34

I don't really know where we're going in Hawaii,

2:36

but we're going to Hawaii with good, good. We

2:39

just got the itinerary sent to us today and

2:41

where our flight is in. I just got the

2:43

check-in. It's in 12 hours. So

2:45

it's very exciting times. We're just getting launched into

2:47

a tube and we're going to land in Hawaii

2:49

and we're going to be playing golf. The last

2:52

thing I'll say about that is I've got to

2:54

be got to be the first person to ever

2:57

go to Hawaii or prepare to go to

2:59

Hawaii and don't pack a pair of shorts.

3:01

You got to think it's one of one.

3:03

One of one. You got to

3:05

one. Yeah. And I know I'm going to get shit.

3:07

I know it's like sacrilegious. You're in Hawaii. You're in

3:09

the islands. I'm going to get laid. Hopefully. Are we

3:11

going to get laid when we, I've never been to

3:13

Hawaii. Are we going to get laid when we get

3:15

off the plane? I hope so. That would be great.

3:17

I mean, we'll get laid. Yeah. Nice.

3:20

Right in the airport. Hopefully. I got a pair. I've

3:22

got one pair of shorts. I'm going to bring on

3:24

the carry on. I got one pair of blue shorts

3:26

that I might slip into if the night is right.

3:28

Wait, so you won't even wear shorts if we go

3:30

to dinner. You know, Trent,

3:33

in my mind, what I do in times like

3:35

that is I just change the color of the

3:37

pants. I start to go in a lighter trend.

3:39

I start to go with a lighter color, you

3:41

know, I actually went into my closet. I said,

3:43

Oh, these are nice Hawaii pants. And I, and

3:46

I, and as I went down the, the color

3:48

scheme of my pants closet, which

3:50

now is I've got 87 pairs

3:53

of pants over the years that I've accumulated.

3:55

I have them all color coordinated. We started to get

3:57

into the beiges and the whites. white

4:00

in there. I might throw a light

4:02

blue at you one night with a

4:04

white collared shirt. Listen, pants rock, pants

4:06

rock, it's pants season. And I'm

4:09

not doing this to upset anyone. I just like to wear

4:14

pants. I just want to say that. I don't want to get

4:16

into a fist fight over it. I know Francis

4:18

is going to be angry. We don't

4:20

have lurch there, which is great. No,

4:23

we've talked a lot about this.

4:25

And the idea that you

4:27

wear pants because you are in control of

4:29

your temperature and you're the one who controls

4:31

it. And it's up to you. And I

4:33

just want to lay that as the groundwork

4:35

to the beginning of this argument. I'm fine

4:37

with that. That's great. I think it's fantastic.

4:39

I'm the same way. Don't tell me how

4:41

to live my life because

4:43

I'm the one in here. I'm the one in

4:45

this head. Unfortunately for all of us on this

4:47

podcast, we're all the ones in these heads, but

4:50

we're going to Hawaii. Yeah, I know we're

4:52

going to Hawaii. I'll probably slip into a shorter

4:54

too, because I did wear shorts in Italy. I

4:57

started to feel free. I also was amongst

4:59

people that I that love me. So it's

5:01

different when there's cameras and we're going with good,

5:03

good. It's a billion people. I'm

5:05

not afraid to say that I don't like wearing shorts on camera.

5:07

It's as simple as that. Everyone has their little thing. I

5:09

don't like doing it. I've never done it. So that's how much

5:11

I don't like to do it. And we're

5:14

just going to keep rolling. This has been something that's

5:16

been keeping me up. We're going to a short wearing

5:18

island and that's what I'm going to have to do.

5:20

Yeah, but we went to the Bahamas and you still

5:23

wore pants. That's right. We've

5:25

been to a lot of places. That was as hot

5:27

as the devil's cock. That

5:29

was that was that Bahamas

5:31

round that we play. That last Bahamas

5:33

round was 105 degrees on the pavement.

5:38

But you see, that's when it starts to seep in where

5:41

you're no longer doing it for how comfortable you

5:43

are because you're in your own skin. You're saying

5:45

right now that you're hot. That was because you

5:47

don't like showing your legs off, which as

5:50

a guy who we've talked a lot about

5:52

on the show and just in general, like

5:54

I bit the bullet and you get one

5:56

year. You're prepared for this. I just when

5:58

I was packing, I said, I'm just not.

6:00

Yeah, those are nice. hand legs. I'm not,

6:02

everyone else prepared. Garrett is a good looking

6:05

guy. He's getting like beautiful women. Bubby, the

6:07

guys fucking ripped all these guys. They're all

6:09

living in Florida. I've been hiding

6:11

underneath linen and cloth. Okay. I've

6:13

been hiding underneath Islander blankets watching,

6:15

watching preseason and the start of

6:17

the year. We haven't gotten a

6:19

win yet. Like that's what I've

6:21

been doing. I'm wearing high socks.

6:23

You know what I mean? So

6:25

now now you're ripping all

6:27

that off of me and we're landing in whatever Island

6:29

we're landing in. Something that I'm not prepared for. You're

6:32

like the red woman in Game of Thrones when she

6:34

takes the necklace off and

6:36

turns into just an hideous beast.

6:40

We got to prepare for some cool guy

6:43

outfits too. I feel like the good, good

6:45

crew. They're like made for Hawaii, man. They're

6:47

seeing windbreakers and high shorts. And

6:49

we're going to come in there just like

6:51

total dorks with the classic golf outfit polo.

6:53

We're going to try to pack some of

6:55

our cool guy clothes, but I don't really

6:57

know what to expect out of this trip.

6:59

I don't really know much about it. This

7:01

is for anybody who doesn't know

7:04

last year we went to the Bahamas with good,

7:06

good. That was a little bit more of our

7:08

production. We kind of set a lot of it

7:10

up and invited them and said, you guys don't

7:12

have to worry about too much. Just kind of

7:14

show up. This is sort of their version of

7:16

that for us. So we haven't planned anything. We

7:18

don't know anything. I don't know where we're playing,

7:20

when we're playing, how we're playing, what we're really

7:22

doing, or getting our ass on a plane and

7:24

going to Hawaii. And this is, we

7:26

said it before, but this is just future, a future

7:29

thing that you never thought would be here

7:32

is here. And tomorrow we're just flying to

7:34

Hawaii. I've done no preparation. I can't

7:36

believe it's almost like we're just going to the

7:38

office for four or five days, except that

7:41

office is in Hawaii. So we'll see. Yeah. We

7:43

got the ALCS going on also during all this.

7:45

That's, I'm going to have to keep my eye

7:47

on the Yankees playing against the guardians. I know

7:49

that they're going to be streaming at the office.

7:51

They've got Ohio state coming in. He's eating a

7:53

bunch of peeps. I don't know if you guys

7:55

have been seeing that he's got like 320 peeps,

7:57

which is what dude, he said for every. For

8:00

every point that Ohio State

8:02

gives up, if they lose to

8:04

Oregon, he

8:07

would eat 10 peeps. He

8:09

has to eat 320 peeps, which are

8:12

the most peeps you've ever like. You know what I

8:14

mean? Like that's like he ate

8:16

40 yesterday, he said. And

8:18

he his lips were bleeding from the

8:20

sugar that was hitting the inside of

8:22

his lips. Like that was just 40. I'm

8:25

a sugar guy. I wouldn't eat five peeps,

8:28

bro. And now I've never had a peep.

8:30

Oh, my God. Easter time peeps are

8:33

different than Halloween time peeps. So he's

8:35

eating these Halloween ones and they're double

8:37

the size. They are. They're huge. They're

8:39

like ghouls. Well, for the record,

8:42

peeps are disgusting. I mean, that's crazy because

8:44

you're you're you're a sugar addict and it's

8:46

just sugar with a little bit of with

8:49

a little bit of food dye on it. It's just

8:51

compacted sugar. It's it's the it's the texture I don't

8:53

like. Yeah, but you love the taste, right? Like you

8:55

got a lot of taste. You

8:58

know, well, the initial like if I were to

9:00

close my eyes, face doesn't like cocaine. Oh, you

9:03

know, just got a little food dye on it.

9:06

If you if you if I were to close

9:08

my eyes and you fed me a piece of

9:10

a peep, I would be like, I love this.

9:12

It's sugar. But there's something about the fluffiness of

9:14

the texture that I don't. Yeah. All right. We'll

9:16

put it on my nose or go crazy. Fucking

9:18

brushing your teeth with it. Well, I mean, then

9:20

thoughts and prayers to Ohio State because that

9:23

might kill. Yeah, no, it's just something I keep my eye on.

9:25

And he you know what? Shout out to him because people he's

9:28

done a good job coming in here at Barstool

9:30

and like really like doing things like this. He

9:33

goes after Dave with Ohio State and Michigan. And

9:35

then for this one, he tweeted out all the

9:37

things that he would do if Ohio State lost

9:39

the game. And this happens to be a tough

9:41

one. So, yeah, he's living

9:44

up to it. But that's not just I'm going to keep

9:46

my eye on that when we're out in Hawaii. And yeah,

9:48

it should be great. It's going to be like, oh, one

9:50

of the future. The reason I brought that was one of

9:52

the future things that I didn't account

9:54

for is when we have such packed

9:57

out schedules and months in advance. We're trying

9:59

to book something like this and our producers

10:01

and good good. They'll be like, hey Can

10:05

13:23

things. EVs are where it's at. Charge that thing

14:21

I want to hear about big cedar. I want to

14:23

hear about big cedar lodge big cedar lodge man I've

14:25

been excited to talk about this. I just got back

14:27

from a buddy's trip I

14:30

don't really don't I do know where to start because I wrote a

14:32

bunch of notes down First

14:34

off I want to start with saying book a

14:36

buddy's trip It's something that you just

14:39

got to do you got to get people together We

14:41

talk a lot about death on this show We talk

14:43

a lot about things like how life is just way

14:46

too short. We're only on this floating rock for a

14:48

certain amount of time It's not enough time. It's really

14:50

not enough time And

14:52

to be able to have experiences and memories

14:55

is something we are we just started off

14:57

this podcast for 10 minutes Talk about how

14:59

we're going to Hawaii and like I'm complaining

15:01

that I have to go there to a

15:03

pickleball event And there's like a lot of

15:06

things that our life has brought us that

15:08

we are extremely extremely grateful for and that

15:10

we are Extremely blessed to have and for

15:12

me to experience all these things without my

15:14

family and friends sometimes makes me feel a

15:17

little bit bad Or I have like this imposter

15:19

syndrome of like I can't I almost feel embarrassed

15:21

to be doing stuff like this Like I I

15:23

couldn't even talk about going to Hawaii today. I

15:26

had some family over or go we're watching football

15:28

It's like they're all just going like they're going

15:30

back to the restaurant or whatever it is Like

15:32

I that's how I genuinely feel I I should

15:34

be there with them. It's crazy that I'm good.

15:36

I do get to do this for a living

15:39

So to be able to share that experience They my

15:41

buddies have all seen me go to all these places

15:43

and they love golf and I'm there the reason why

15:46

I love golf And we've played golf together our whole

15:48

entire lives. We play on the same high school golf

15:50

team We like brought the East Middle High School golf

15:52

team back from the dead They went 1 in 15

15:54

because we all played baseball and then the next year

15:56

they changed it to the spring And we are to

15:59

the fall and we all played on the team and

16:01

we went 16 and 15 and one

16:03

shop Cold Spring Harbor. We couldn't beat them ever. But it's

16:05

just like, I have these memories with these guys with this

16:07

game. And now it's like a year ago, I booked this

16:09

big Cedar Lodge trip. When we went out there two years

16:11

ago, I said, I have to come here. This is the

16:13

first spot I got to do. I have to be able

16:15

to share this place with my friends. And

16:19

a year went by, like legitimately 10 months went

16:21

by and it was a long time looking forward

16:23

to this thing. A lot of guys saving up

16:26

for it, like getting ready, getting outfits ready, whatever.

16:29

And it finally came and we went balls to the

16:31

wall with this thing. I had a lot of our

16:33

sponsors come in and like

16:35

really help out this experience and show these

16:37

guys exactly what I wanted to show them

16:39

starting with ship sticks. Let me tell you

16:41

guys about ship sticks real quick. This isn't

16:43

going to be like an advertisement show, but

16:45

this is genuinely, I genuinely go through all,

16:48

they're all advertisement shows, but yeah, they are, but

16:50

like, they're also just in the world of golf

16:52

that everyone uses and should be using like ship

16:55

sticks. We just showed up

16:57

and the way that

16:59

we set it up was everyone that lives

17:01

on Long Island just dropped off their clubs

17:03

at my house. FedEx came to my house

17:05

and picked up the clubs. And then they

17:07

just arrived to a big

17:09

Cedar lodge. We didn't have to

17:11

bring them anywhere. Jeff's, Jeff's, Jeff's

17:14

did. Yes. So that

17:16

was incredible. Like legitimately a life changing. I vouch

17:18

to as long as I can to never travel

17:20

through an airport without my golf clubs. That is

17:22

my promise to you guys. Cause it's that, it's

17:24

that game changing. You have your carry on, you

17:26

get off the plane, you just go to your

17:28

hotel, you go to the golf course the next

17:30

day, it's right there with your shoes. You're ready

17:32

to go. The golf course is ready for you

17:34

and your bags are there. Amazing. And

17:38

I had a little gift bag with these guys.

17:40

We had a TP five X's. I had the

17:42

hats from Imperial, the whole entire deal. So I

17:44

hooked these guys up pretty good. And they were

17:47

very, very excited for everything to come. So that

17:49

was just, that was pre trip. We

17:51

go to Springfield, an amazing little

17:53

city, kind of like a college

17:55

town. They've got four colleges there. Our Uber driver

17:58

was like a bit of a tour guide. They've

18:01

got a O O O O

18:03

Riley and the guy actually sang

18:05

that which was incredible. Auto parts.

18:07

Wow. That's like where that's in

18:09

Springfield. Bass Pro Shop

18:11

started in Springfield. So it's like, it's a

18:13

cool little town. They got Missouri State there.

18:16

We drove by a couple of sorority houses that

18:19

were all like rushing. It looked like a movie

18:21

scene. There was like a thousand blonde women running

18:23

into a house. I like, I think I've seen

18:25

that on the internet from once, like once in

18:27

a while. So

18:29

that was cool. Um, and Springfield,

18:31

we went to this little brewery and there

18:33

was just a great introduction to a buddy

18:35

strip, like a brewery

18:37

pool tables. NFL Sunday

18:39

was on like all the guys are getting

18:41

in from different flights, hugs. Like everyone's just

18:43

kind of hugging each other. My dad's there.

18:45

My father-in-law is there. Because we haven't seen

18:47

like just a lot of just like male

18:49

hugging and just like a lot of like

18:52

cue balls hitting, hitting billiard balls and just

18:54

like it was just manly shit. And like

18:56

guys are playing old school games and they

18:58

had a pinball machine. That was a Foo

19:00

Fighters pinball machine. And we were all going

19:02

nuts about it. My dad's making games. It's

19:04

just like, it was very, very fun. My dad's putting

19:06

$20 on the table saying if whoever

19:08

hits the back wall and can get the cue ball to

19:11

stop in front of the front wall wins and we're going

19:13

nuts as these balls are rolling and not touching the wall.

19:15

It's just like you get in the amps going, you're getting

19:17

the ampage up, you know, you're revving it up. Next

19:20

day shuttle picks us up from the hotel. We're on our

19:22

way to big Cedar. We stop at this place. I

19:25

think it was called Mc McAdoodles. Is this a, is

19:27

this like a chain or is this a one spot?

19:30

It was the greatest liquor store I've ever seen

19:32

in my entire life. McAdoodles. Dave Portnoy standing right

19:34

in the front with a huge, with a huge

19:36

little display there. First person I walked

19:38

into was Dave Portnoy's face. Incredible

19:42

McAdoodles. Great little pit stop. We got some alcohol.

19:44

We got a bunch of truly as much as fireballs

19:46

and we're on our way to big Cedar. This is

19:48

where this, this is why you booked the trip. This

19:51

is this next moment. We pull into

19:53

big Cedar, the huge signs up top, right? And

19:55

we know, I know what we're

19:57

about to expect, but no one else does. And

19:59

the first drive through. big cedar when you're going

20:01

up to the Pains Valley area, right? Because big

20:03

cedar has all these different areas, wildlife, they've got

20:05

the cottages all the way down below where you

20:07

can stay with families, they've got like rock climbing

20:10

and adventure life and down by the water. I

20:12

mean, they own land from where big

20:14

cedar is down to Arkansas. It's crazy how much

20:16

land they own, but when you pull in towards

20:18

that like mountain top, that first check in, there's

20:20

a drive that you're going through kind of like,

20:23

you see a couple of houses, you see some

20:25

real, you know, that you're going up and you

20:27

see that you're going above the trees. And it

20:29

was the perfect time. It was like 11 o'clock.

20:32

Everything's super bright. There's no fog.

20:34

It's the sunniest day. There's not

20:36

a cloud in the sky. And

20:38

we make this one turn and

20:40

all of a sudden the green

20:42

just appears from Pains Valley, just

20:44

moving all the way up, all

20:46

the way up to this, this,

20:48

this amazing clubhouse just appearing

20:51

on top of it, a

20:53

Vista with nothing behind it.

20:55

And everyone on this shuttle

20:57

went nuts. This was like,

21:00

this was a reveal, man. Like the trees stopped, you

21:02

hit it. And I want to tell you, this reveal

21:04

has gotten better since we went there. They

21:06

are making

21:09

a new par three course above Pains

21:11

Valley called cliffhangers. And it literally, all

21:13

the grass and all those crazy rigid

21:15

rocks that were above the

21:18

18th hole of Pains Valley is now these

21:20

like ridiculous mounds of green. It looks so

21:22

fake that you can't believe that they're able

21:24

to grow grass like this. And it looks

21:27

like, and the hills are going all the

21:29

way up from the down view. It's,

21:31

it's incredible. It's opening up soon. It's, I can't

21:33

believe that they have added that to the Pains

21:35

Valley area. So anyway, we're driving through guys are

21:37

hugging each other. They're coming up to me, putting

21:39

their, we're driving up to this clubhouse, putting their

21:41

hands on my neck, you know, Hannah's like Uncle

21:43

Mark puts his hand on my neck and like

21:45

real aggressively is like, thank you, you know, like

21:47

they're looking at golf course, that's all they're doing

21:49

is just and they're crying. My dad is in

21:51

the back on what and he said, wow, to

21:53

the point where his voice started to like crack

21:55

a little bit. It's just like

21:57

I was sitting there with this feeling of

22:00

like I had this idea

22:02

to do this with my buddies and my

22:04

family and that moment right there. It's exactly

22:06

what I pictured. It's exactly what I wanted.

22:08

Everything was going right. We pull up and

22:11

the first, so that was the first peak I

22:13

wrote here, guys tearing up, dad crying, hugging me

22:15

in shuttle. This is what I wrote when I

22:17

was there. Part three cliffhangers blah, blah, blah. Ozark

22:20

national was our first golf course. I don't know

22:22

if you can find a better golf course to

22:24

start out at. Not a cloud in the sky.

22:26

We picked teams. We had team

22:28

uniforms. Everyone was excited to get out there.

22:30

First tee shots were incredible. This is everyone's

22:32

first golf trip that they're going on. So

22:34

like the competition was

22:37

up. We did handicaps. All the teams are extremely

22:39

fair. Like everyone was ready to go. We had

22:41

an 80 year old facing big Rob. Like this

22:43

was like, that's why golf's the best. The big

22:45

E the 80 year old could face up against

22:48

big Rob who's like losing his teeth in his

22:50

hand sandwich and went to, uh, and went to

22:52

a Turkey to get a hair plug. He looks

22:54

incredible. Big Rob looks unbelievable. That's just what it

22:57

is. That's what it is. It's that, that's what

22:59

the camaraderie is all about. Anyone can play. Anyone

23:01

can go. Ozark national is wide open. Literally anyone

23:03

can play that kind of golf course, but it

23:05

is challenging. It is a challenging golf course that

23:08

I don't know if that one's the core Crenshaw

23:10

one or if that's the core Crenshaw. And I

23:12

think that's probably the hardest one there. It is

23:14

the hardest one, but even, but Buffalo

23:16

Ridge also is pretty tough, but like the greens

23:18

are tough, but it's definitely doable off the tee.

23:21

And like you could see that. So a couple

23:23

of the groups played a shambles. Like I know

23:25

my dad's group did, and you're able to kind

23:27

of like just move on. You're hitting good shots.

23:29

People are staying in play and it was just

23:31

a great opening day. Um, and the thing I'll

23:33

say about big Cedar is, and the reason why

23:35

I loved it so much is once we were

23:37

done and right before we were done, I'll get

23:39

to, um, what we needed

23:41

to really kick off this first night was the

23:44

final group was coming down. They weren't the best golfers.

23:46

They're guys that like were teetering on not coming and

23:48

we didn't know if they were going to come. They

23:50

hadn't played a lot of golf coming in. And this

23:52

group came down all square into 18 and

23:55

cousin Danny, who was like the last addition

23:57

to the show to the, to the trip.

24:00

a game-winning match winning putt at Ozark National

24:02

with the entire crew around him and like

24:04

I looked around I got the video they're

24:06

holding each other up cousin Greg cousin Danny

24:08

two different sides of the family grabbing each

24:10

other and they're just like they're celebrating like

24:12

there's one the world series like they just

24:14

won the Ryder Cup and I looked around

24:16

being like this is all happening exactly these

24:19

guys are getting the experience they're doing it

24:21

like big putts are being made drinks are

24:23

getting thrown in the air hugs are fucking

24:25

happening I'm 18 like this is all they

24:27

just night one you walk off the 18th

24:29

green a big cedar lodge you're getting right

24:31

into a shuttle you go from the shuttle

24:33

right up to top of the rock the

24:35

Sun is setting the cannons are getting fired

24:37

off you have dinner at the Osage it's

24:39

the best dinner you've ever seen you go

24:41

to top of the rock you go to

24:43

the basement I think we did this guys

24:45

I think me and Trent did this someone

24:48

farted in our in our face God we're

24:50

going right on me we were going down

24:52

the steps that you can find the wine

24:54

seller it's all the way down all these

24:57

steps and down in the wine cellar is

24:59

this whiskey tasting bar that there were a

25:01

lot of guys that love them themselves

25:03

some brown stuff they love the hard stuff

25:06

and they found this place and they're ordering

25:08

ridiculous bottles of whiskey and they're tasting it

25:10

in the weight and the servers like loving

25:12

that this like big group came in and

25:14

then right beyond that is that

25:16

crazy statue that's happening at outside of most

25:18

age on top of the rock and we're

25:20

looking at that everyone's like what's happening my

25:22

dad took us all to the to the

25:24

little church down there there was a little

25:26

church right next to the top of the

25:28

rock and we're all walking through this chapel

25:30

and it felt like otherworldly you can almost

25:32

feel God in the room we were like

25:35

this is crazy overlooking the lakes the Sun

25:37

is setting dinners righty we go up there

25:39

everyone's cheers thing we're making speeches like just

25:42

it was hard to not get

25:44

emotional every single moment because everything

25:46

was going so well I I

25:49

continuously got emotional even like behind closed doors like each

25:51

night because I'm like man like I didn't think my

25:53

dad was gonna be able to do this I didn't

25:56

think that I was able to get all the family

25:58

together my dad just had the surgery other people had

26:00

a lot of things going on in their life. People

26:02

made a lot of adjustments. They really grinded to get

26:04

here and everything's working. They're thanking me. I mean, they

26:07

all paid. I kept saying

26:09

like, why are you guys thanking me? They're like,

26:11

well, we never would have gotten it together. I'm

26:14

like, but you guys all did this. Everyone here

26:16

is here for a reason. We all fucking paid.

26:18

We all worked hard to get here and we're

26:20

all in a situation where we're able to go

26:22

away for a week and play golf. All my

26:24

friends, everyone's just getting emotional

26:27

and shit is bizarre, but that's what it's all about.

26:29

And that's why I love it. Fall

26:37

is officially here and the temperatures are

26:39

dropping quickly, which is nice and nice

26:41

crisp in the air in the evenings,

26:43

in the mornings, uh, with

26:45

winter sneaking up on us. It's time to

26:48

make sure your wardrobe is up to par.

26:50

That's why we want to tell you about

26:52

our outerwear line from our friends at PETA,

26:54

malar, the all course, the all course line,

26:56

um, the lineup features a vest, a jacket,

26:59

a full zip hoodie that provides plenty of

27:01

warmth. Thanks to loose, um, feel

27:04

insulation. This stuff is really good because playing golf

27:06

forever, when you have different layers on used to

27:08

be kind of a nuisance, used to not be

27:10

able to swing PETA, malar makes all the different

27:12

layers so nicely that you don't even notice you

27:14

have them on. Got a layer up. There's no

27:16

better time to be me right now. Layering up

27:18

makes you look real good. Everyone's wearing pants. You

27:21

feel normal. Got that nice cool

27:23

breeze in the air. Um, I

27:25

love to layer up. I love the Browns. I

27:27

love, I love all the different types of shades

27:29

of Brown and beige and I love the fall

27:31

foliage and you just, I wear this out to

27:33

dinner. I wear a nice khaki pant with a

27:35

dark brown outer sweater, you know, and then a

27:37

nice jacket. I got all Peter, malar head to

27:39

toe fall. I'm all Peter. I might as well

27:41

change my name to Peter. Do it. Well, Peter,

27:44

um, this stuff is perfect for cool weather rounds

27:47

or out in the town, the all

27:49

course is aptly named design for easy

27:51

lightweight wear. The all course also features

27:53

a windproof construction and water

27:55

resistant. Um, perfect for drizzly

27:57

days. Be sure to check out the all course.

30:00

who actually has real skill and real talent play

30:02

the game of golf guy plays twice a year

30:04

and he just absolutely is awesome at the game.

30:06

He plays, he plays legitimately like 10 times a

30:09

year and holds a four handicap. So if he

30:11

would have, it's crazy. He plays a hundred times

30:13

a year. He'd be like the best golfer in

30:15

the world. It's an effortless swing. And

30:17

this is something I know I'm talking a lot

30:20

about like my group of buddies, which is not

30:22

keep going. So everybody's let everybody, this is what

30:24

people have a buddy Tom in their group. But

30:26

like when I'm facing someone in

30:28

a match and they have that smooth of action

30:30

and they effortlessly hit it that far, it affects

30:32

my game to the point where I stopped watching

30:35

him hit the ball. I couldn't do it. Um,

30:37

like I literally would try and like copy him

30:39

or mimic him, or then I would try and

30:41

swing out of my shoes to get it

30:43

as far as him because it was frustrating me

30:46

that he was just launching these balls down the

30:48

middle three 10. And I'm

30:50

like, what's happening? Why can't I do any of the

30:52

stuff that Tom is doing? So

30:55

whatever pains Valley goes, comes and goes.

30:57

Still one of my top. I think

31:00

it's my top. It's in my top

31:02

five of golf courses in the country.

31:04

Playability wise, views wise, um, just the

31:07

dill pickles, the dill pickle, um, peanuts

31:09

in the big house, like that big halfway house are

31:11

the best peanuts I've ever had in my entire life.

31:14

They are dill pickle flavored, salted. They are the

31:17

best crunchiest pickle, uh, peanuts I've ever had in

31:19

my entire life. Um, so pains

31:21

Valley came down to 18 in

31:23

that group. And we ended up winning me

31:25

and my partner, Kyle ended up beating Tom

31:27

and Andrew an amazing day. We're

31:29

coming up 18. So nice. Final. Yeah.

31:33

It was a huge win. The final group we were. So

31:36

everyone, all other 12 golfers are waiting on that 19th

31:38

hole overlooking 18. They

31:41

are waiting for us to hit that tiger shot,

31:43

that 19th shot within that dome of all those

31:45

rocks. So a big zero lodge, let us have

31:47

16 guys on that tee box. Like we were

31:50

able to move it all quick enough that we

31:52

all were up there closest to the pin. Now

31:54

we're doing a close to the pin competition cousin.

31:57

I hit one to like 10 feet

31:59

cousin. I'm

44:00

going to do everything in my power to continue to

44:02

do that. That I don't need to have any extra

44:04

dollars in my bank account at the end of this

44:06

life, as long as I've done what I thought that

44:08

I had to do to make all these people have

44:10

that life that I want everyone to have like those

44:12

experiences in life, right? I don't care what the hell

44:14

you do for 362 other days, but

44:17

when you're in my domain and we're going to be doing

44:19

this, we're going to give this everything we got. We're going

44:21

to care about it as much as we can care about.

44:23

No one's going to get in fights. We're going to have

44:25

the best time because we've all been best buddies and we've

44:28

all been family for our entire lives and we're all just

44:30

going to experience this together and we're going to want to

44:32

do it the next year. We're going to want to do

44:34

it the year after and we're going to want to like

44:36

reach out to our friends and our family and like send

44:38

pictures and be like, do you remember this and talk and

44:40

like actually like communicate with people? It's just like, that's

44:43

what it's all about. It's not about the golf.

44:45

It's not about the hitting the shot in the

44:47

hole. It's about everything around it. So that to

44:49

me was, uh, I know I was taking things

44:51

to the next level in seriousness, but it really

44:53

was, man, like there was a lot of things

44:55

that really happened where like, uh, like, you know,

44:58

the uncle bar came up to me. He was

45:00

like, he was able to play with his two

45:02

sons at pains Valley and his brother. And he's

45:04

like, I haven't played with these guys in years.

45:06

Like you, like, like this was it, man. This

45:08

was fucking awesome. So that's a, yeah, that's a

45:10

wrap. Big Cedar lodge. If you're not making that

45:12

your destination. Oh, do you guys see this thing?

45:14

Are you able to see this like thing they

45:16

gave me? Oh, the welcome Burelli group. This. Yeah.

45:19

I saw that. That was an unbelievable touch by

45:21

that. I did see. Driving to Ozark national and

45:23

this is hanging. You guys signed it. That's made

45:25

a sign it and they sent it to my

45:27

house. It was here the next day. It was,

45:30

we were playing pains Valley. It got to my

45:32

house, dude. That's so cool. This was hanging up

45:34

in front for everyone to drive by like everyone

45:36

that played that day drove by this. Um,

45:38

we were all able to sign it. So

45:40

I have all 16 guys signatures on here.

45:42

It's like big Cedar, like font on there

45:44

too for the Burellis. That is sick. Really

45:47

special stuff, man. They really, uh, they really go

45:49

above and beyond. So it's going to be hard

45:52

to beat. I mean, I, I don't

45:54

know how I'll ever go anywhere else. It's, it's

45:56

that good. So yeah, a lot of talking, a

45:58

lot of plugging, but it's really, uh, It's a

46:00

great time to be alive. It really is. No,

46:03

I, uh, I think that people, I mean, this

46:05

is a golf show and I think that we

46:07

talk a lot about golf trips and, uh,

46:10

I think people know, I try to do as many

46:12

golf trips as humanly possible. And I think that each

46:14

time you go through those experiences, you really, really do

46:17

realize just how fucking awesome it

46:19

is, how much it means to

46:21

everybody. And like we had

46:23

this last week, we had all the boys down to the

46:25

Pinehurst house. I had all the gray Hawk crew, uh, that

46:28

we play like the Saturday game app. And it

46:30

was very cool because Alistair, our boy, it was

46:33

like his one off week, basically of the year.

46:35

Um, he finished up, you know, last week devastation,

46:37

the whole thing. But even he was saying to

46:40

us, he's like, he's like, I've

46:42

never really done a golf trip

46:44

before. He was like, golf's like my, my

46:46

life, my job. He plays

46:48

golf, you know, high school,

46:50

competitively college, competitively, Palmer

46:52

come all kinds of different, you know, stuff,

46:54

places that he goes around the game of golf, but

46:57

it's a grind. And he was like, I don't

46:59

ever get to just go do a buddy's golf

47:01

trip. And so while being able to kind

47:03

of see him experience the entire thing and

47:05

how fun that is was fucking incredible throughout

47:08

the week. And just to let go be

47:10

out there ripping shots, it don't like

47:12

really matter. Having cocktails. It was an

47:14

incredible, incredible week. So we're doing a

47:17

pretty similar thing, but it is, uh,

47:19

I mean, dude, I think how much like people look forward to it.

47:22

You just kind of what you need day in

47:24

and day out. People go to work, they're

47:26

miserable. It's fucking grind. Everything could suck. Something

47:29

to look forward to is very nice. Yeah. You got

47:31

to give people something to look forward to. I need

47:33

something to look forward to in my, like, that's how

47:35

I operate. I always need to be like, where are

47:38

we? What are we striving for? Whether it be, you

47:40

take that with anything in business and life and relationships

47:42

or whatever it's like, what are we actually trying to

47:44

achieve here? Cause our, our else we're just sitting on

47:47

our ass doing nothing. And I always bring it to

47:49

that like nasty spot where it's like we're on a

47:51

floating rock and one day this thing's going to explode.

47:53

Like we can't keep wasting time here. Fellas like you

47:55

got to do, and we're in a position we have,

47:58

it's almost like the wrong thing. get

1:02:00

myself to there, that's kind of the goal. Cause

1:02:02

then you're hitting like a nine or an eight

1:02:04

iron or something. You're reasonably in play. So I

1:02:06

do think that that little marker gives you a

1:02:08

pretty good reference point. Are you not

1:02:10

like the replacement of it, Frankie? Do you want to

1:02:12

be on the side? It's great. I, I, I, I

1:02:14

wish every single golf course had it. I think I

1:02:16

don't know if we're going to consider that an amenity,

1:02:18

but I do think that it is far and few

1:02:20

between. You don't see it that often when you do,

1:02:22

it seems to be the focal

1:02:25

point of the hole. Like it's the conversation

1:02:27

piece on the tee box. It's the conversation

1:02:29

piece of the next shot. If on a

1:02:31

par five, like you're constantly saying, Hey, the

1:02:33

one fifties right there. Let's just get it

1:02:35

within that. Or if you hit a

1:02:37

three with the one fifties right there, you're going to be fine

1:02:39

in your next shot. I know for my dad, like whenever we'll

1:02:41

play a golf course with that, he's, that's all he's looking at

1:02:43

is like, how am I going to get it inside that? Cause

1:02:45

he can't hit his iron as well. But he's like, I just

1:02:48

need to get in there. Cause I can't at one 61 71

1:02:50

80, one 90. You're,

1:02:52

you're asking me to hit a ridiculous club into a green.

1:02:55

And I noticed like a couple golf courses do

1:02:57

have that. It is nice. Um,

1:02:59

to see that I know that aesthetically, it's not the

1:03:01

best thing to be looking at. You know, you're not

1:03:03

going to go out to like an

1:03:05

Aaron Hills and see all these posts in the middle

1:03:07

of the fairway, but I don't know,

1:03:09

man. I think it does help a lot of the

1:03:11

average golfers. They had that at the golf course. We

1:03:13

played with a no con. We were talking about them

1:03:16

all day, all day long, all day. Noah was like,

1:03:18

that was his point to really, he's like, as long

1:03:20

as I'm in that one 50. I'm fine. I

1:03:23

like when they got a nice, um, I like

1:03:25

when they got a nice display of all the

1:03:27

little stuff that you're going to need on the

1:03:29

first tee, they'll have a couple sharpies in there,

1:03:31

like Aaron Hills does a really good job of

1:03:33

that. They'll have a couple sharpies. You can mark

1:03:35

your ball. They got their own custom tees. They

1:03:37

got their own. It's just like a nice final

1:03:40

stop before you head off on this

1:03:42

journey. And it's like, make sure you

1:03:45

got everything you need, grab it.

1:03:47

It's displayed nicely and you can roll back. So

1:03:49

I think that's kind of a nice amenity, but,

1:03:51

um, but yeah, that the air, the air

1:03:54

gun is a fucking, that's a great call.

1:03:56

It's great. A lot needs to, they put

1:03:58

a trillion dollars into this. There

1:12:00

is not, no, which is crazy. I

1:12:03

mean, if you look online, there's not, there's a

1:12:05

lot of options, but there's not that many options.

1:12:07

There are a lot of options if you want

1:12:09

to build out your own trip. Like, yeah, but

1:12:12

if you want like a turnkey,

1:12:14

almost like you show up, stay and play.

1:12:16

There's not that many that

1:12:18

do that. Banden was kind of the

1:12:21

first of this kind of new era because

1:12:23

I think it was like the late nineties.

1:12:25

And I believe that it was like Mike Kaiser's quote was

1:12:27

like, he said something

1:12:30

to along the lines of like, well, if nobody shows

1:12:32

up, at least we'll have a cool golf course for

1:12:34

a couple of years. And then now Banden Dunes obviously

1:12:36

has five courses and they've repeated that model all the

1:12:38

time. But like, to be like, we're going to go

1:12:40

to this remote part of the country and

1:12:43

build all these awesome golf courses. And people

1:12:45

are going to come was a crazy idea

1:12:48

at the time to think about, like you

1:12:50

would never go to Springfield, Missouri. You wouldn't

1:12:52

be flying into Springfield, Missouri. And then you

1:12:54

get to see this incredibly cool part of

1:12:56

the country, the Ozarks, Table Rock Lake. You're

1:12:58

just like, what? And I think that part

1:13:00

of it's so cool too, like us going

1:13:02

up. And when we did do Forest Dunes,

1:13:04

it's like we did a day before

1:13:07

where it's like, or we did a couple different

1:13:09

days. We were like out on, remember that we

1:13:11

had that night out on the beach at like

1:13:13

on Lake Michigan. And you're like, dude, we're like

1:13:15

in Traverse City on the beach in Baily Farms.

1:13:17

Shout out to those boys. And we're there just

1:13:19

because of golf, you know, it like brings you

1:13:21

to that part of the country. You get to

1:13:23

see stuff you would never get to see. You

1:13:26

make friends there that you stay in touch

1:13:28

with. It's like, that's fucking golf, man. That's

1:13:30

what's so cool about this stuff. But like

1:13:32

you go online and you type in golf

1:13:34

resorts in America, and you kind of go through

1:13:36

the list. And there are a bunch, but like,

1:13:38

for what I just described, a big cedar and

1:13:40

you've got the stream songs and the band and

1:13:43

there. And then you're like, which ones have golf

1:13:45

carts? Which ones can you stay at the resort?

1:13:47

And it starts to dwindle down where it's like,

1:13:49

all right, we only have, let's

1:13:51

call it six realistic choices.

1:13:53

And they're all extremely hard

1:13:56

to get to or expensive, or you have to

1:13:58

book a year or two in advance. Right now

1:14:00

it is kind of just a little bit too

1:14:02

early for everyone to be experiencing it. I do

1:14:04

hope that in 20, 30 years

1:14:07

when these golf courses are 20 years old, 30

1:14:09

years old, you

1:14:11

would assume that they'd have more room,

1:14:13

more golf courses, more hotels, more hospitality,

1:14:15

and more room for everybody. So yeah,

1:14:19

I mean, I'm certainly not complaining about it. I

1:14:21

love being able to go to them, but I just

1:14:23

hope that yeah, it just keeps growing. As golf

1:14:25

keeps growing, these will keep popping up for sure. But

1:14:28

you also can build out your own. You don't have to do the

1:14:30

biggest things. You can go to a Myrtle Beach and

1:14:32

stay in a hotel and play like 10 incredible

1:14:35

golf courses. And it's affordable and it's the

1:14:38

best time we did it. I mean, Caledonia,

1:14:40

True Blue, all these courses were insane. Pete

1:14:43

Dye course, like if you string together three or

1:14:45

four of those, that's as good as it gets.

1:14:47

So you can go to West Virginia and like

1:14:49

get a cabin and like just play awesome golf

1:14:51

courses around there. You can go do the Alabama

1:14:53

trail and you can go do that like Robert

1:14:55

Trent Jones trail, right? Like that's all like six

1:14:57

or seven golf courses where you can stay in

1:15:00

play. So turn is the difference. Like Greg said,

1:15:02

turn key, like get there, you're done. Well, it's

1:15:04

the difference between going to like Disney or going

1:15:06

like camping where like one's like a little bit

1:15:08

more work and you got to like kind of

1:15:10

do your own thing. You got to get your

1:15:12

own lodging and then you're going to go experience

1:15:14

all the nature stuff. Or you go to the

1:15:16

one where like there's someone waiting there to grab

1:15:18

your luggage and they bring you in and they're

1:15:20

like, here's your golf cart. It's just different. It's

1:15:22

a different experience, but there's both out there and

1:15:24

it requires, it just requires a hell of a

1:15:26

amount of research. If you're not going to do

1:15:28

the thing where you just go to that resort

1:15:30

and stay there. And if somebody's willing to do

1:15:32

that, you got like a ringleader of the group

1:15:34

that's willing to put all that effort in, you

1:15:37

can book a hell of a trip and it

1:15:39

can cost a third of what it might cost

1:15:41

to go to a big cedar or pine or

1:15:43

abandoned or whatever it might be. But that does

1:15:45

take a lot of work. You got to figure

1:15:47

out all the transportation. You got to have different

1:15:49

Airbnb's or whatever lined up. Like it's just not,

1:15:51

it's not overly easy, but I

1:15:53

just, I'm with you where I

1:15:55

think a lot of the theme of the whole show

1:15:57

is like, if you're listening to this show and you're

1:15:59

sitting there, and you and your buddies have thought about

1:16:01

doing a trip before, you've thought about trying to rally

1:16:04

everybody together, do it. Just figure

1:16:06

out a way to do it. Do it. Go

1:16:08

anywhere. You could do a trip on almost any

1:16:10

budget if you work hard at it and you

1:16:12

do a bunch of research. I

1:16:14

remember, I guess it was six years

1:16:16

or so ago now when I reached out to each

1:16:18

one of my buddies from St. Louis. We have 12

1:16:20

guys on the trip now, but just being like, hey

1:16:22

dude, I get to play all this exactly what you

1:16:24

just went through. I was like, I get to play

1:16:26

all this insane golf on the internet for a living.

1:16:29

You guys have to watch me. I think I can

1:16:31

use our connections to get us a pretty good setup

1:16:33

at a cool golf resort. You guys would like to

1:16:35

do a trip and every guy was like, yup, then

1:16:37

it's done. This is what it's going to cost. This

1:16:39

is what we're going next year. You can start saving

1:16:41

up now. And now we're six

1:16:43

years in, we got a whole packet with

1:16:45

all the history. We've got every, the result

1:16:47

from every match that's ever been played is

1:16:50

like on this packet that we send

1:16:52

out and it's just the best and people live

1:16:54

for it. So I do think

1:16:56

that's the theme. Get out and play,

1:16:58

get out and do a trip. Get that trip

1:17:00

out of the group chat. I see that a

1:17:02

lot on TikTok. Yeah. Wow. I like that. Get

1:17:04

the trip out of the group chat. That's

1:17:07

nice. Do it. Do it. Do

1:17:09

it. Four Play Tracker says, our good

1:17:12

friend Four Play Tracker, he says, Island Greens

1:17:14

are not islands. I thought about this a lot

1:17:16

prior to you guys bringing it up on the

1:17:18

podcast. It has kept me up at night for

1:17:20

months. Islands are land masses completely surrounded by water.

1:17:23

Peninsulas are land masses almost entirely surrounded by water.

1:17:25

They should be called Peninsula Greens unless you have

1:17:27

to take a boat or there is a bridge.

1:17:30

What's that? What is it called? Cordellane or whatever? Yeah. I

1:17:33

was going to say there's that one golf course on,

1:17:35

is it on tour where they have to take a

1:17:37

boat out there? We're going, it's on our tour. I

1:17:39

think we're going, is it, we're doing the big, are

1:17:41

we doing the Barstool Classic there? I think we're doing

1:17:44

a Barstool Classic stop at Cordellane next year. My parents

1:17:46

went there for a little vacation last year. So it

1:17:48

was awesome. The Island Green.

1:17:50

Are we going to be rowing people out there? Is that

1:17:52

going to be our job? I think they have a whole

1:17:54

system. I think they drive you out there. They bring you

1:17:57

to the green. They take you back to the tee box.

1:18:00

move that green too. Like I think

1:18:02

it changes yardages. Like I think it's

1:18:04

awesome. Actual Island that they move around.

1:18:07

It's not just the tee boxes. There

1:18:10

were so many things that blew everybody's mind,

1:18:12

especially the older guys like Don and his

1:18:15

brother and everyone. Like we're looking out of

1:18:17

the window at Big Cedar, like how many

1:18:19

things that this

1:18:21

place had to do to like get the golf

1:18:23

course. Like there's these huge tunnels that they were

1:18:26

paying attention to and like all the water fixtures

1:18:28

to like get these rivers. Like they're all like

1:18:30

fake rivers and like it's there. They couldn't believe

1:18:32

all this stuff and going to the cabin the

1:18:35

first night, like getting to our cottage, which was

1:18:37

insane cottage. It was unbelievable. It was like three

1:18:39

of them right next to each other. There was

1:18:41

this big like Chevy Tahoe

1:18:43

right in the middle of a

1:18:45

pond, like floating like clearly on

1:18:48

like a glass platform,

1:18:50

but like sunken in. So like you drove

1:18:52

past and the sun was setting and I

1:18:54

was like, look at that fucking Chevy out

1:18:56

there, man. How'd they fuck? How do they

1:18:58

fucking do this? And like everyone's taking pictures

1:19:00

of this thing. We're like, holy shit, man.

1:19:02

Like everything. Oh, that

1:19:05

plays technically. They're all pretty

1:19:07

much peninsula greens, but that's not as fun to

1:19:09

say. Like, no, peninsula is not that same. It's

1:19:13

a peninsula. Yeah. I mean, I don't think it's a

1:19:15

keep me up at night. I mean, it's definitely, I

1:19:18

understand what they're saying, right? Like it is an

1:19:20

island kind of like it looks like one. You

1:19:22

got to get to it. I'm, but it's what

1:19:24

he's saying is it's not an island with by

1:19:26

definition is true. Right. We're going

1:19:28

to go. I don't think, why don't they

1:19:31

just put a little bridge on all of

1:19:33

these and just get rid of that little

1:19:35

grass peninsula part for a little bridge that

1:19:37

I like. No, no. Yeah.

1:19:39

I really like sawgrass should do that. Like

1:19:41

why is sawgrass have grass there? Just put

1:19:44

like replace that with a little bridge. Be

1:19:46

a cool ass bridge. You could build there

1:19:48

too. It's really not that long. Mm-hmm.

1:19:51

Short walk and people are

1:19:53

they nervous about losing the green. Do you start

1:19:55

to lose the green? If you

1:19:57

lose that integrity of the green. Remember we played against

1:19:59

Billy. the Horschel and they were kind of like fixing

1:20:01

the green. Remember the back part of it had like

1:20:04

a little bridge thing like a, on the edge?

1:20:06

So I don't know if that thing's hard to keep

1:20:08

in good shape. I wonder about the

1:20:10

integrity of the actual island if

1:20:12

you remove that part that's connected to the rest

1:20:14

of the land. You cut that off,

1:20:17

does that for us? It's gonna float away. Does

1:20:19

it float away? You gotta think they'd

1:20:21

be able to put something in the base of it. I don't

1:20:23

think so, I think it's pretty solid there. If it

1:20:25

just floated away, imagine that. They come out there in the

1:20:27

morning and that green is just over by the 16th green.

1:20:30

How do they get those bridges, how

1:20:32

do they get bridges to lock into

1:20:35

something? Bridges are special. Just like the

1:20:37

George Washington Bridge, or the

1:20:40

Triborough Bridge. I

1:20:42

don't know, I'd have to watch a documentary on

1:20:45

it that I'm sure exists, but isn't

1:20:47

it just cement really deep into the

1:20:49

ground? Yeah, but you'd think that it's

1:20:51

not, you're never actually finding anything solid

1:20:53

down there. No.

1:20:57

How do you officially be like, this is good

1:20:59

enough? You know, like this, that's, that

1:21:01

ain't going nowhere. Millions of people are gonna cross this

1:21:03

thing every year, we're good. You just knock

1:21:05

on it, yeah, it looks pretty good right there. That's

1:21:07

perfect. Going nowhere, it's like hanging on TV. They've

1:21:10

gotta have it down to a science at

1:21:13

this point because I think bridges have been around

1:21:15

for a long fucking time. Yeah, it's amazing

1:21:17

when you see them though. Did

1:21:19

you guys see the video of the

1:21:22

Midtown Tunnel? Had all

1:21:24

the water coming down. You show me this. That

1:21:27

is over for me. The water

1:21:29

was pouring into the Midtown Tunnel because

1:21:31

someone was doing work above it and

1:21:34

struck like a water line and

1:21:36

all the water started to rush into this

1:21:39

tunnel. People were just in traffic watching inside

1:21:41

the tunnel, underneath the river,

1:21:43

going into Manhattan. That's one of

1:21:45

the great fears of all time, right? Just

1:21:47

being stuck in that fucking tunnel when

1:21:49

that happens. It's the fear. The word

1:21:51

I would use for that is unacceptable. Yeah.

1:21:55

I was on the fuck. Oh, and

1:21:57

dude, the guy taking the video just started putting his windshield wipers.

1:22:00

like this is crazy. It's like dude,

1:22:02

you gotta get out of there now.

1:22:04

Makes me think of the Titanic, like when

1:22:07

they were just in the basement and

1:22:09

the pipes just start bursting and it's over.

1:22:17

Summer is all about the freedom to have fun. You

1:22:19

don't need to blow your budget, do some big trip

1:22:21

to make the most of it because you can forget

1:22:24

having to do a vacation and

1:22:26

you can take a tequila vacation with

1:22:28

the new truly tequila sodas all summer

1:22:30

we've been witnessing this, all fall we're

1:22:32

witnessing it. People are out of the

1:22:34

barstool class like having a great time.

1:22:37

They're enjoying the four refreshing delicious flavors

1:22:39

of the new truly tequila sodas, lime,

1:22:42

pineapple guava, grapefruit watermelon, all 5% ABV

1:22:44

in just 100 calories, kelocation,

1:22:48

these things are delicious,

1:22:50

delicious. Refreshing, delicious, the

1:22:52

perfect on course

1:22:54

golf, on golf course drink.

1:22:57

And then you can even, as I told

1:22:59

you last week, my father-in-law came home

1:23:02

after the barstool classic and he got himself a

1:23:04

bunch of truly tequilas. He put them in a

1:23:06

little koozie, put them in a little cooler with

1:23:08

a koozie and he's sitting on the couch watching

1:23:10

football. I'm like, what are you drinking over there?

1:23:12

Truly tequila soda. He was hung. It's

1:23:14

just, he's like, I couldn't believe how refreshing they

1:23:16

were, how tasty they were. This is not a

1:23:18

lie. This is a dead honest truth. And

1:23:21

they're great. I mean, we've been partners with these guys

1:23:23

for years at the barstool classic. Never had a single

1:23:25

issue with how, how

1:23:27

well people have enjoyed them and how tasty

1:23:30

they actually are. And they're only getting better. That

1:23:32

is a fact. They really are. They

1:23:34

really are. They just nailed it, truly nailed it. The

1:23:36

tequilas are awesome. So give them a try. Trust me.

1:23:39

Truly tequila soda. Keep it

1:23:41

light. Hard Seltzer Beverage Company,

1:23:43

Boston, Massachusetts. Please drink responsibly.

1:23:52

I actually meant to send this to Nate

1:23:54

because our guy Nate loves the Titanic, but

1:23:56

he loves to like remember it. There's nothing,

1:23:58

he's very serious about it. laughing mattered him.

1:24:00

It's not a laughing matter in general, but

1:24:02

I'm saying he won't heal. He's like people

1:24:04

died that day. It's a insane tragedy. I

1:24:06

mean, it really is. But there was one,

1:24:08

I can't believe I forgot to send this

1:24:10

to him. He's definitely seen it. There was

1:24:12

a party, a kids party at

1:24:15

this place, and they did the Titanic

1:24:17

ride. And basically, you sat on a

1:24:19

ledge, and then the ledge would go

1:24:21

up, and it was like who can

1:24:23

stay on top without falling down to

1:24:25

the water. And all the

1:24:27

comments are like, how

1:24:30

many years have to go by for you to

1:24:32

start doing tragedies of like, you know what I

1:24:34

mean? Like, it should get really... What

1:24:36

tragedy are you thinking of, Frankie? No, I'm just

1:24:39

saying, it's just, you know what I mean? Yeah,

1:24:42

a hundred years, I guess. It's as bad as it gets.

1:24:46

And those people should

1:24:48

be put in jail. You can't joke

1:24:50

about that. No. For whatever reason, we've

1:24:52

gotten so far away from the Titanic,

1:24:54

and there's been obviously a gigantic movie

1:24:56

made about it that people, it seems

1:24:59

like people are down to poke fun

1:25:01

at it, but it's like, damn, a

1:25:03

lot of people died. The most horrible death.

1:25:06

Horrible death. Horrible. Freezing the death

1:25:08

out there. Thousands, right? Thousands. Yeah. I think

1:25:10

it's like 1,900 people, 1,500 people? 1,500. You

1:25:16

can't have a kids party being like, who can stay

1:25:18

up top? Dude, you gotta see this video. I don't

1:25:20

know if Alex has, it's really bad. It's

1:25:23

really bad. Can't, that's unacceptable. Can't do that.

1:25:25

It's unacceptable. It's not in. It's like a

1:25:28

Titanic, like survival,

1:25:30

child's birthday

1:25:32

party theme. It's

1:25:34

like as bad as it gets. It's out.

1:25:36

It's hard to say without laughing because of

1:25:38

how bad that is. Yeah, it's terrible. Nope.

1:25:41

You can't find it. What is

1:25:43

what it is? Is he gearing up for the bills tomorrow?

1:25:46

Yeah, he's gravy.

1:25:49

I'll see you guys in Hawaii. Hawaii.

1:25:52

Anything else? You guys got anything else? What else

1:25:54

has been going on this last week? I missed

1:25:56

everything. Not a ton. Too

1:25:58

much. Just kind of holding it down. holding

1:26:00

it down. Excited to get to

1:26:02

Hawaii. Play a little golf. Last plug

1:26:05

I'll give is or last couple plugs I'll give

1:26:07

here is a lot of people

1:26:09

ask me how I made those hats. I had the

1:26:11

like my own logo on a hat and I had

1:26:13

big cedar on the side. We've talked about this a

1:26:16

lot in advertisements. Imperial hats, you

1:26:18

can actually go on the website and make them

1:26:20

yourself. You pick the hat, you pick the trim,

1:26:22

you pick the height of the crown that you

1:26:24

want and then you put a logo in there

1:26:26

and you can center it and you can remove

1:26:28

the background and it's affordable and it's incredible and

1:26:30

you bake it into the price of your trip

1:26:32

like just tell everyone it's going to be whatever

1:26:34

it might be. It's going to be 30 bucks,

1:26:36

40 bucks and whatever you want to divvy it

1:26:39

up, however you want to divvy it up and

1:26:41

you have custom hats that come to you so

1:26:43

fast and they're ready for your golf court,

1:26:46

your golf trip, do this. I'm telling

1:26:48

you that is a game changer. Like having

1:26:50

a logo, having the golf course that

1:26:52

you're attending, having the year on there on

1:26:54

a hat, on a nice hat that's going

1:26:56

to fit everyone. It's like it's the

1:26:59

most comfortable hat that you can have. Do

1:27:01

that. Like I'm telling you that was a game

1:27:03

changer that and Peter Millar being able to customize

1:27:05

the logo on the Peter Millars because giving someone

1:27:07

a Peter Millar shirt is like the greatest gift

1:27:10

in golf. Like them opening that up is like

1:27:12

you'd think that it'd just be some like raggedy

1:27:14

old shirt like for a golf trip and they

1:27:16

open up Peter Millar one, they're like, they give

1:27:18

you that twinkle in their eye. Like, are you

1:27:20

kidding me? Peter Millar. Don

1:27:24

wasn't happy. I gave him team white. He's like, you guys got a

1:27:26

cool color. I was team white. Don and

1:27:28

Dan look clean. They look clean.

1:27:31

Just be happy. Clean trip. They

1:27:33

looked currently look real clean. All right.

1:27:36

Well, that's it, man. That's all I got.

1:27:38

I guess Islanders are all one

1:27:40

in one goal scoring issues.

1:27:43

Our Hawkeyes one, which was nice. Attaboy,

1:27:45

Trent. Thanks. Congrats. So

1:27:47

good after getting the doors blown off by Ohio.

1:27:49

So that was a nice win. That was good

1:27:51

in the midst of a lot of really good

1:27:53

football yesterday. That was a nice win. Yeah. And

1:27:56

then Ohio State lost. So that's what

1:27:58

it is. It's huge. All

1:28:00

right, boys. Well, safe travels. Safe travels. See you

1:28:02

tomorrow. And I'll be out through this. We'll

1:28:04

see you in Hawaii. Hit it hard. Hit it hard.

1:28:07

Hit it hard.
