Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Quiet Please, with Mel Reed and Kira Dixon is an
iheartwomen's sports production in partnership with Deep Blue Sports and Entertainment.
You can find us on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts. Okay, this is the

(00:23):
first episode of Quiet Please, where Rory McElroy is officially
a major champion again the first time in eleven years
and completing the career Grand Slam.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
And for the occasion, we needed to do.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
A solo episode to discuss everything.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Mel Yes, and for people that are watching us on video,
you can probably tell that well, obviously Kira went to
the Masters, but I also went to the Masters, which
is why we're all swaped up, aren't we.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
Kira, you gotta wear it.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
And we spent a long time waiting to get into
the merch shop, trying to strategize in the merch shop.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
And now everybody needs to know that we went to
the Masters.

Speaker 3 (00:59):
Exactly can we talk about the merchet? Do you want
to go straight to Rory?

Speaker 2 (01:02):
I feel like I think maybe let's start with Rory
and then go to me.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
Okay, I mean, I don't know which one's more significant.
The amount of money we both.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Started the both are very historic.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
All the other golf podcast people are like, Rory blah
blah blah, and we're like, so what about the merman?

Speaker 4 (01:16):
What did you find me trying to just bend?

Speaker 2 (01:21):
We'll just do a quick touch on, you know, a
historic day.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
Yeah, just a little bit. No one's really that interested.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
So we kind of texted a little bit during the round,
and when he came out and doubled the first I was.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
Like, oh my god, are we really doing this?

Speaker 1 (01:37):
Like can we just have one nice, normal, no stress day?

Speaker 2 (01:43):
And that was not our journey.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
But that's okay because it ended up being like the
most insane. I've never had those emotions about a round
a golf or a sporting event before.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
Yeah, it was nuts.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
Just a side note, I actually missed the double on
the first because Carlie just wanted to do some sort
of photoshoot which she was seeing herself yesterday on Sunday
and she made up for old spirits and so she
didn't do it, and so I don't know, she's just
we went to like a farmer's market in the morning,
so she got like dressed up and so she was.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
Clearly feeling herself.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Kind of document a good fit.

Speaker 4 (02:12):
Yeah, so she spent probably.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
I'm not showing you, she probably spent a good ten
minutes just taking selfies with me in it.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
I didn't wasn't didn't want to be part of it.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Seems like a normal thing that I would do, so yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
So problem is, unfortunately I missed the double vogue. But
luckily someone did replay it back to me and told
me what happened.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
But yes, listen someone as in like social media.

Speaker 4 (02:34):
Yes literally literally, because the TV.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
In our playroom, like waits like an old TV, so
won't play back like our normal TV wils, so listen.
I genuinely think I don't think I've ever seen literally
millions of people pulling for just one person to win
a golf tournament in my life.

Speaker 4 (02:54):
Oh yeah, do you know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (02:56):
Like, I feel like everybody felt like this was Rory's time,
Like the way he was coming into it, even in
his like when he was talking to the media, I
felt like he was very.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
Confident, as he should be, and usually he's not.

Speaker 3 (03:08):
He likes to be a little bit more under the radar,
but he was a little bit more bolder I felt
this year, And I mean that shot he hit on
thirteen was a thirteen?

Speaker 4 (03:16):
It was?

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Wasn't it a Part five where he blocked that wedge
like twenty five yards and.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
A yeah, yeah that was thirteen. But then he had
like the shot of his life on fifteen.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
Yeah, I know, and then he had a great shot
in seventeen. He definitely made it hard for himself. But
okay again, no, I fair play to Justin Rose as well,
by the way, like someone who's in their mid forties
and like playing still playing incredible golf like that is
pretty remarkable in my opinion.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
And this is his second major in a row where
he finished his runner up.

Speaker 3 (03:43):
Yeah, and he's lost in a playoff as well, hasn't
he didn't he lose to surgery I think twenty seventeen.

Speaker 4 (03:48):
Yeah, something like that.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
But listen, I we were texting, like you said, and
like I generally like had tears in my eyes, like
I was so made up for Roral.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
I was full on sabbing. Well, yeah, I'll show you
the photo.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
Oh you are genuinely really upset of joy tas of joy?

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yeah, yea of joy.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Well, I mean sports are supposed to make you feel
something like take you out of your normal life, and
that's what this was. And obviously it was the build
up of having come so close before and then the
playoff and everything they had to go through through the
four doubles and you know, all the close calls at
the US Open that the other majors blah blah blah.

(04:28):
So it was like when you see somebody have that
sort of a human reaction, fall to their knees and
let out like a scream to rend the air of
all of this pent up energy and emotion, like you
can't help but feel that.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Yeah, no, no, no, I agree. I mean I think
and I think as well, like fair play to broadcast
as well, Like they literally just went silence for about
and it was dislike that everyone then felt the moment
in a way.

Speaker 4 (04:54):
Yeah, I love it when they do that as well.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
And I think that it was just every single interview
I've kind of listened to after, as he said, it
was not necessarily choy, it was just complete relief.

Speaker 4 (05:03):
Yeah, like he's had this burden.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
I mean he would have been if he had lost. Dude,
I don't want to I don't think there's any coming
back from that.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
I know, I don't even want to think about it.
But yeah, I mean I could not be happier for Rory.
I like grew up playing junior golf with him, and
he's obviously always been very very special. Yeah, and he's
just yeah, he's an incredible guy, and he's incredible for
the game of golf and for him to be honest
to see it and witness it like as well, Like
I remember Target doing it. Obviously, I was like thirteen

(05:30):
when he did it, so to witness it as an adult,
someone who's played professional golf, I'm like, holy shit, that
is like it's insane.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
It's crazy. It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
I mean even my mom was watching right, Like she
watches some golf TV for me, Like she'll she'll turn
on the channel and she knows the channel, aka golf channel.
She'll turn on the channel when she knows I'm reporting
or something like that. But she never sits and watches
a tournament right right, And she's texting me saying.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
I hope Rory wins. You know.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
That's just yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
And like even for like Harry his team, like Harry's
been taking his caddy has been taking so much shit over.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
The years, Like I don't know, I don't understand that.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
I don't understand it either.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
I'm like, what has he got to do, Like he's
obviously always busy or has been playing amazing.

Speaker 4 (06:14):
I know, I know, I know.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
I feel like they kind of treat Harry like a
little bit like a football manager, Like if Rory plays well,
it's Rory.

Speaker 4 (06:22):
If Rory plays bad, it's Harry. Yeah you know. Yeah,
so I love that for them, like they've known since
seven years old.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
They also hadn't won a major, no, since Harry got
on the bag, so I think, yeah, people then started
to yeah, pile on or whatever, which is stupid.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
It is stupid, but yeah, I just thought the resilience
of the lad and I mean, it's just I thought
it was just crazy. It was honestly an absolute privilege
to like watch in real time, to be honest.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
So that day I worked some Golf Channel stuff in
the morning for reporting from Life from and then I
went and did my other job for Masters dot Com,
and then I was kind of done for the day.
So I finished around two, like right before right before
they teed off, and I was sitting in the press
building and I watched the double and I was like,
oh my gosh, like I can't sit here and watch this.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
I'm just getting so much nervous energy.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
So I went I hadn't had a chance to walk
the back night at the golf course the whole week yet.
I'd done the front, and I've done a couple of
you know, I've been down to Amen Corner a couple
of times for content stuff, but I hadn't actually just had.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
A nice leisurely walk by myself.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
So they were playing the front, and I decided I
would just go and walk the back.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
You know.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
I saw Max Homa, I saw Colin Moore, Colin Victor Hovlin.
There weren't that many people. It was like a nice
little solo celebration for me.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
To end the week. And then I made my way
back up.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
I started going towards back, towards the clubhouse, and I
ran into the leaders on nine Green and I was like, okay,
I'm just gonna stand here and watch from afar. And
I watched them make their approach shots, taking their wet shots.
I watched them go up to the green and I
think Bury made birdie there.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Racing made part of it. I have to double check.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
That, but I just wanted to like stand there for
a second to feel the energy.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
It was insane.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
It was people screaming, people screaming for Rory, people screaming
for Brazen.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
People screaming with joy.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
And it was like a human wall that I could
barely get through.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
And that was enough for me.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
Okay, I have a question then, and I think I
kind of have my own opinion on this. But do
you think that's because the no phone policy at the
Masters for the patrons that it's so different.

Speaker 4 (08:30):
I can't explain to people in this day and age.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
I'm like, it is so different at the Masters, Like
everyone is just humans.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
Yeah, this is how we were meant to be.

Speaker 4 (08:40):
Yeah, like you go in and you get like a sandwich.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
We'll go into this later, but like you go, hey,
do you mind if I stand here as well?

Speaker 4 (08:46):
And they're like, oh, yeah, no, what do you do?

Speaker 2 (08:47):
You know, you start chatting and yeah.

Speaker 4 (08:49):
And taking you know, eighty five celfies like.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
In one of the well we do love us Helpie,
but in that in that scenario at Shadow Curly, But
in that scenario, it's it's nice to be able to
put it down and just truly be so in the moment.
And one of the unique things about the Master's tournament
is you don't know what's happening around the golf course.
The only way that you know is that when the
leaderboard changes and the people doing the little leaderboard thingy

(09:14):
and the noise, Yeah, so they'll they'll change it and
someone will go from thirteen under to eleven under.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
And everyone will scream.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
And that's such a cool like that doesn't happen in
any other sporting event.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
Great point. Yeah, it's incredible. Everything's kind of present in
real time. It's just just amazing.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
So well done, Rory.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
But anyway, that was all I had the stomach for
in terms of like the people. So I went back
into the press building. I watched a little bit more.
I watched him make double again, and I was like,
all right, I happy to hear anymore that I had
to padd so much shit to pack.

Speaker 3 (09:47):
Well, you did take a fucking wardrobe and shipstick's like
eighty five suitcases.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
I have so much stuff to pack. So I was like,
all right, I went back to the hotel having a pack.
I'll watch And of course that was a disaster because.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
You know, trying to win and I'm trying to watch
and I couldn't focus on the actual packing, I folded
two sweaters and that was Anyway, it was an amazing.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
Day, incredible.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
I think that's one of the best sporting like events
or moments.

Speaker 4 (10:12):
I've ever ever. Honestly, it was awesome. Like it is
very much reminiscent.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
I know this, this is just my opinion, but like
the way that Tiger went in ninety seven, that made
me feel it was kind of very similar.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
Yeah, yeah, exactly, and the Tiger slam and so like, yeah, different,
but first to now be adults and understand the actual
gravitas of that moment and when it took and we
because of what we do in golf and our personal
relationships with everybody, it's yeah, like I don't know, I
was cut deep sab insent.

Speaker 5 (10:43):
Yeah, and just the way like watching him go down
the tunnel of people and the like it's hitting him
like oh right.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
So anyway, on some more important topics.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
The merch, the merch.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
Fucking hell.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
So I did get to see mel in Augusta, Georgia.
She did not text me back when I asked her
what her plan.

Speaker 3 (11:09):
Was because I was at I was already in the muster. No,
I texted you the night before oh well, I was
drinking wine.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
Okay, I'm sorry. There's just I don't want to hear it.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
So I didn't get to see you on the actual grounds,
which is whatever. But I did get to see you
that evening, which I'll take. I'll take what I can get.
But how was your day at Augusta without me?

Speaker 4 (11:32):
It was great? Thank you.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
Obviously would have been better with you there, Kira, Yeah, yeah,
whatever went with Cassette.

Speaker 4 (11:37):
I think it's always saw three shots and we were
like to do this, Let's go to the merch. So
we went to the merch. I did panic by.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
You gotta have a plan, dude.

Speaker 3 (11:46):
It really pissed me off. I literally just panic by.
And it's just I'm so annoyed. I didn't get certain things,
and I'm like, I don't take my time.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
What did you want to go?

Speaker 3 (11:53):
Okay, there's a great like sweater thing that was just
really cool. I saw like loads of people with it
after the factor in, so I wanted that. I feel
like I wanted a cap like you're wearing. I bought
like eighteen caps and not that one.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
I saw this one last year and I didn't get
it last year, and then it was back this year.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
So that one the Gnome salt and pepper shaker. I
should have got that, But then again, you buy so
many gifts, like I just get overwhelmed, and I just
like my brain works too quick.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
I wrote myself a list, and I was so proud
of myself, and then I forgot.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
That would be the sensible thing to Oh, oh, did
you do quite well in there though? Did you have
a successful trip?

Speaker 1 (12:36):
I was successful. The thing I was most proud of
was a Gnome ornament.

Speaker 4 (12:40):
Oh the Christmas one?

Speaker 2 (12:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (12:41):
Okay, so I got that last year first because I
love Christmas is my fucking yeah. I also love good
literally first of November it's Christmas, not holiday.

Speaker 4 (12:54):
But you can buy but you know you can only
buy one of them? Did you know that? Because I
tried to buy to.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
This ship, I'd only have one tree a year, so
I think that's.

Speaker 3 (13:03):
I bought one for my mate this year, so I
tried to buy a couple for a couple, but you
can only buy one.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
Look at you thinking of others. I'm just thinking about
my own.

Speaker 3 (13:12):
But it is that's a great gifts present for yourself.
So what else did you buy?

Speaker 1 (13:16):
I got a really pretty light blue sweater with the
outline of the clubhouse in like a really delicate white
onto it, which.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
Was really pretty.

Speaker 1 (13:27):
I got a really pretty purse, like a like a
woven purse thing that had like a bamboo handle with
the logo with the master's logo on it.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
I got a couple of.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
Gifts for folks, but I didn't go crazy. I think
my first year I was like, I have to buy everything.
This my third year, so I wasn't far.

Speaker 4 (13:47):
You know what you're doing.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah, I'm also not big on.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
Buying stuff for like unless I don't know you've specifically
reached out to me and asked, like, I'm not just
going crazy buying stuff for people, and that's setting and yeah,
it's just a lot, and you figured out what to
do with it, and it's overwhelming.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
How many sandwiches did you have?

Speaker 4 (14:06):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (14:07):
Okay, So when I was there and I only saw
three goal shots because you just get chance for people,
don't you as well?

Speaker 4 (14:12):
So after the merge, I got chance over one. We're
having a few beers.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
I had like two three beers okay, so over the
course the whole day being there, so I thought I
was quite fine. I had four pimentoes and an egg salad.
While I was there, I then bought six back for Carli,
and on the way back to the Airbnb, I ate
another pimento.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
So that's five pimentos.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
I heard that you left like seventeen ice cream sandwiches.

Speaker 4 (14:35):
That was cast That was not me. Oh okay, but
I think there were.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
Cassette bought them for Carli and I forgot to take them,
so that would make sense.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
It had to do with you.

Speaker 4 (14:45):
It was just blame me. I was.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
Yeah, I had to like pack the five of the pimentos.
I got frozen the night before and so I could
transport them back to Jacksonville.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
And did she Were they good upon arrival? Did she
enjoy them?

Speaker 4 (14:57):
Yeah? She had one and I had another one.

Speaker 3 (14:59):
So two days I had a lot, and I was like, Carl,
I feel so bloated.

Speaker 4 (15:03):
I don't want to see it.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
I wonder why, you know, this was weird.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Usually I'm a big pimento person, and for some reason
this year it wasn't speaking to me. I was more
I had one I like to do when you do
the like half chicken salad, half the meno and you
squish it together.

Speaker 4 (15:16):
Yeah, I love.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
Had one of those it was delish. For the reason
I was just like really big on the egg salad
this year.

Speaker 4 (15:22):
I lost my egg salad virginity at this Masters, and.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
It was congratulations.

Speaker 4 (15:27):
It was better than expected.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
The I love egg salad.

Speaker 4 (15:31):
I'm not a huge exaled person, but I am.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
It was a pleasant I eat a lot of egg
salad on the road, like you know, you can get
it like a prepared Yeah, when it's like in the
container or whatever, I just I put it on toast
for like extra proteins fast.

Speaker 4 (15:42):
It's well done. Yeah, yeah, I know. It was good. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
So it's just a successful trip. Really, And then we
went to a party. Didn't we go for a couple
of parties.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
Please?

Speaker 1 (15:54):
Okay, this was the highlight of my two weeks.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
So we went to this party.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
Very cool, very cool party.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
She was great, thank you for having us and Cassette
our manager, Mamager, our Marmnager. She tells us we're doing great,
sweeties all the time. Yeah, she had made dinner reservations
and we you know, could not be late because it
was it wasn't just a restaurant. It was like another
event that had a pop up restaurant type of thing.
So we had to be there on time, so we're
trying to leave.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
And okay, to set the tone, so Kira was chatting
to your chance to Collin, Mari, Kara, and Narl Horrn. Yes, correct, correct,
And so Cassette was like freaking out.

Speaker 4 (16:36):
She's like, we have to go, like we really are
going to be late.

Speaker 3 (16:39):
And Cosette was about to go over and pull you
away politely, and she thought, hmm, might look a bit weird.
I'm a manager, and she was like, well, can you
go and do it so it'll look completely normal if
you go and do it. I said, absolutely, no problem now,
but in mind Kira picked us all up and was
taking us to this restaurant, okay, because that was only
a moment of transport we had. So I go up
and I politely, so excuse me, guys, Kira, we probably

(17:01):
should get going for the reservation. Kira then pued to
like hugg and kiss me and go.

Speaker 4 (17:05):
Oh, it's been so good to see you.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
All right, well you have a good night, and I'm like, no,
you're fucking idiot. You're coming with us, like you're driving us.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
So fucking hell.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
So I don't know what happened next because then some
reason we switched places and then I got chatted.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
I walked away. I was you you said, you idiot,
you were driving us, let's go. And I was like,
oh shoot, like I don't know. I had an aneurysm.
I was tired. It was a long day. So then
I was like, okay, bye guys. I hugged Nile, I hug.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
Colin, and I walk away and I kind of too
assette and yeah to cassette. And then I'm standing there
with a cassette and I turn around and mel is
now in the same spot talking nailing Colan about your
soccer team or what.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
About Derby County, And then I forgot we were leaving.

Speaker 4 (17:49):
So yeah, it was this poor cassette.

Speaker 2 (17:52):
She has to was like, oh my god, we have
to girl, we have to go.

Speaker 4 (17:57):
So then you had to come and see. Then she
sent me to get you again. Oh god.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
Honestly, on the way out, they were giving out they
were giving out these gifts and it was like a
golf glove and the girl was taking freps. She's like, oh,
what size are you guy? And she's very nice. It
was so nice that they're giving up these gifts. What
do you guys have worn blah blah blah.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
She handed me the glove and I was like, oh no,
it's from the right hand.

Speaker 2 (18:23):
I need a left hand small? Can you go back?
And said like, oh my god.

Speaker 3 (18:28):
And then I'm like, oh wait are these men's I'm like,
oh no, wait, I'll need a small.

Speaker 4 (18:31):
Sorry, I know, I said medium. Can I have a
different color. I don't even need this fucking glove. I
was just getting it to.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
Get it, like I don't just like free stuff.

Speaker 4 (18:41):
We just can't help herself. And then Cassette doesn't look
at us with these mama ja eyes.

Speaker 3 (18:46):
She's not dagger to fucking leave, like, come on, fucking hell.
So it was a bit carnage. But then she did
make it to the restaurant.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
We did, oh fuck where we were meeting.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
It was Amanda Valionis was there, Olivia who works on
our team as well, and you know, Mandy does not
like to be left alone, so she was.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
Freaking out that they were that we were late, that
they had to wait for us when we get.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
There, and Kia thinks that she's the princess of the
fucking world and is just like to rives up to
the actual entrance and not the valet. You remember that.
We were like Valet's down there, like, oh, well, okay,
I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
Every restaurant in the world has the valet right up front.

Speaker 1 (19:32):
I didn't realize I needed to keep going to the
secret valet entrance.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
Finally we parked the car, we go sit down in
the in this thing. So this is actually really cool.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
So Rio's is this famous restaurant, I think it's in Harlem,
really famous Italian restaurant that's been owned by the same
family since the late eighteen hundreds. And like the grandson
of the original owner or whatever was there that night,
and which was really really cool. And they they just
did like a pop up of the REOs in New
York City and all of their signature dishes, which is

(20:05):
so awesome in such a unique way to like market
an event or create an experiential thing for clients or whatever.
So we had a table at this thing and they
had a magician.

Speaker 4 (20:15):
Oh I forgot about him.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
Where did you think I was going with this?

Speaker 4 (20:19):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
I was like, oh, I thought it was just going
to okay, let's talk about the magician. So the magician.

Speaker 4 (20:23):
He was great.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
I kind of knew like he did the whole take
my wash off, my wrisk and it was still sitting
on his wrists. And did I tell you how fucking
weird he was afterwards? No, Yeah, so like me and Live,
like having a cocktail at the end of the night,
and like he just comes over and he's like, so
you're married, And I was like yes, and he said oh,
and he's like and he was not chatting me up right,

(20:44):
and I said yeah, and.

Speaker 4 (20:45):
He goes, all right, so do you have children?

Speaker 3 (20:48):
I was like yeah, and then he's like all right,
and I was like, I'm a lesbian and he was
like oh, so then he just like immediately turns to
Live and he goes, are you married.

Speaker 4 (20:56):
She's like no.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
He's like, how old are you. She's like twenty seven.
He's like, oh to old for me?

Speaker 2 (21:03):
Too old? Yes, he was like, I was like sixty five.

Speaker 3 (21:06):
Yeah, I know, I've never been a married time, so
I'm my bachelor. But yeah, and I'm like, so she
doesn't fucking find you one bit attractive?

Speaker 4 (21:15):
You weirdo. Yeah, it was really funny. I was like, well,
then have a good night.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
He just fun off, still still got it mouth no live.

Speaker 3 (21:23):
He definitely was interested in live he was very confused
by me.

Speaker 4 (21:26):
But yeah, no, he was weird. He's weirdly weird.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
I thought I thought we.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
Were going to tell the story because because before him
being a creep, apparently for before him being a weirdo,
Mel had been trying to get his attention to come
over to our table the entire night. And he finally
comes over and starts to approach and like opens his
mouth to say hello, and two ladies that probably had

(21:53):
had some wine that night, they jump in front of
him and they go.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
Under the umbrella.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
Lady, we love your umbrella episode.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
He chacked her way slowly just laugh disappeared.

Speaker 4 (22:11):
It was the best Tricky did all night.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
The look on your face was you were just strat
I always.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
Feel like when we're all together, like me and you
and Amanda, and like Cassette is there trying to baby
so something just crazy, weird shit happens and bless her.

Speaker 4 (22:28):
But yeah, that was funny. Those two women were hilarious.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
Oh my gosh. Yeah, So anyway, we had fun.

Speaker 4 (22:33):
We had a long time. It was a good time.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Okay, So there were a few other stories throughout the
week that got our attention.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
The few little takes.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
First one was Nick Dunlap shot ninety in the first
round of the Master's Tournament, which is pretty rough, and
then shot seventy one in round two, and he said,
I don't have very clear thoughts at all when I
want the golf course right now. Yesterday it was like
trying to hold onto a rope. You can't hold on
to it. It's a really, really bad feeling. You just
can't stop it. It's just whatever bad can happen, does happen.

(23:11):
I'm a competitor and I love this game, but it
doesn't really love me back right now. Just super relatable, sad.

Speaker 3 (23:19):
Yeah, I think you're sharing with his driver. From what
I'm understanding, there's kind of a word in the golf terms.

Speaker 4 (23:24):
There's a couple of words.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
Actually one begins with the s if, the one begins
with the Y. And I think he's got why with.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
His the lips.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
Okay, I wasn't gonna say it because it's like fucking
al Gira.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Well we're not playing professional golf.

Speaker 4 (23:39):
Well you're not anymore, that's true. No, you're right. Actually, wait,
you give me the hebgb's any more.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
I don't know that Nick Dunlapp is listening. To this podcast.

Speaker 4 (23:46):
Okay, adience, Okay, well, if you ever want to come on.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
Nick, I mean, if you want to listen. I would
love for Nick don.

Speaker 3 (23:53):
Yeah, the same listen. I think he's got the whys
with his driver. Do you know what though, plays for
the lad because that is ballsy to come back. It's
so easy to like just throw the towel in.

Speaker 2 (24:06):
Yeah, he withdraws back injury.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
Yeah, to withdraw some you know, injury, which I would
honestly say a lot of players would have done.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 3 (24:14):
Apparently like Scotti text him like Billy Horse'll text him
like after that first round, which I thought was awesome.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
I didn't hear that.

Speaker 4 (24:20):
That's so nice.

Speaker 3 (24:21):
Yeah, I feel like that's awesome from from the guys.
And to be quite honest with you, like you will
go through bad stages. Some go through worse than others.
I've had some pretty bad stages of my career. There
was this one time, actually I just commentated for the
first time as to do the US Open a couple
of years to get a pebble, and Anna.

Speaker 2 (24:37):
Was on the desk with me and Anna Jackson.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
Yeah, and Jackson, we love her like hilarious and a
Jackson and A Jackson is so funny anyway, and we
were just talking randomly one night and she's like, oh
my god, wouldn't it be hilarious if, like, you know,
you weren't like the next event after this.

Speaker 4 (24:52):
I'm like, oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:53):
She went, or you're going to shoot like eighty four,
And I was like, Anna, don't for that. What the
fuck am I going to do? Like I did Burty
the last to shoot like eighty three. No, Anna, I
blame Anna.

Speaker 4 (25:04):
I texted. I was like, fuck you, because when I
got to light seven over, I thought, please, well, no, don't.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
But anyway, so you've been there, you know what it
feels like, and it's horrible.

Speaker 4 (25:16):
Oh god, I've been there so many Kira.

Speaker 3 (25:18):
I've been there so many times, so many times, and like,
but to do it at the Masters, Yes.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
Dude, it's heartbreaking, It really is. I mean, do you
know what I was thinking of?

Speaker 3 (25:28):
I was thinking of how fucking nervous must he have
been in the build up to this, because obviously this
has been an ongoing thing. I think he'said this for
a few weeks and that's what I can relate to,
because the anxiety leading up to the first round in
a big event, even when you're not playing great, you're
a bit edgy, but like when you've got issues, big issues.

(25:49):
But you obviously cannot pull out this event to the Masters.

Speaker 2 (25:52):
Yeah, you know, Yeah, there's nothing to be done. You're
out of time, because there is.

Speaker 4 (25:55):
A point where you go, is this really work?

Speaker 1 (25:57):
Like?

Speaker 3 (25:58):
Is it gonna affect me so negatively that should I
just pull out and just look after myself for a week.

Speaker 4 (26:02):
I feel like, you just you.

Speaker 3 (26:03):
Can't do that, though, you know what I mean, You
can do that any other week, any other week, just
probably would have done it at the US Open. He
probably would have done a saga, yeah, but just not
the Masters. Like it's just such a unique event and
you just never know when you're going.

Speaker 4 (26:16):
To get back. Yeah, you might never get to go
again exactly.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
And I'll tell you what, the way he handled himself
and the honesty and the way that he went out
the next day and shot seventy one, it wouldn't even
matter if he had shot eighty six, to be honest,
ninety six.

Speaker 4 (26:27):
I think the way that he just went out there
and get it his best go.

Speaker 3 (26:31):
I have a whole new fan respect for him to
be honest, I didn't really know that much about him,
and that just tells a lot about the kind of
guy that he is.

Speaker 4 (26:38):
And I loved it.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
I think he earned a lot of fans, Like I
think that the media was really fair with him in
the coverage of it, because you know, people can be
really mean, and I thought that, you know, because he
did come back and he did shoot a good score
the next day and kind of was vulnerable, like the
quote was vulnerable. You know, if you open yourself up
a little bit like that, then you earn a lot
of respect from people.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
So I hope that he finds it.

Speaker 3 (27:00):
I'm sure you've got to fight through it. I think that,
you know, it's a fine balance.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
Obviously, he's good at golf.

Speaker 4 (27:06):
He's incredible golf.

Speaker 3 (27:07):
It's a fine balance of looking after yourself and taking
yourself away and then or just running through it, like
running through the pain and just keep going until it
gets a little bit better, a little bit more comfortable.
So yeah, I thought it was cool. Is it true
that the amateur peed in the light in the creek?
I believe so based on his own quotes, So he
said it he did. Yes, I think that something was

(27:28):
happening with Justin Thomas. He was getting a ruling or
something like that and had to use the restroom and
he did. I don't know, I find that I don't know,
maybe being a woman where it's not as easy as
for us to do it.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah, it's not. Yeah, we wouldn't have that thought.

Speaker 4 (27:44):
I just wouldn't do it.

Speaker 2 (27:45):
No, Like I told it in the thing about it though,
was afterwards he said and I would do it again.

Speaker 4 (27:53):
Do you just think that's a little bit of like.

Speaker 2 (27:57):
Yeah, or like also like he's Spanish, it's a cultural thing.

Speaker 4 (28:00):
Like.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
I don't know, I don't think that. I'm sure that
he wasn't saying it as like a disrespect and I
would do it again.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm sure that he comment was made,
and I'm sure that he would never.

Speaker 4 (28:12):
Do it again. Just hold in, dude, it's not difficult.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Just I mean, there's like lots of bathrooms.

Speaker 4 (28:18):
Do you reckon someone saw room?

Speaker 2 (28:19):
Yes, apparently it was in front of patrons.

Speaker 3 (28:24):
Oh no, yeah, that's quite funny. Actually, I mean it's
not it's not funny. Sorry, it's not funny at all.
It's so it's so awkward it's made me giggle.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
All right, let's move on. Let's move on.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
Sergio fuck me had some real ketchup and mustard energy
in his outfit.

Speaker 4 (28:45):
Okay, I mean listen. Okay. So I think it's a
Spanish thing.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
Okay, because Siganda, great friend of mine, unbelievable human being,
great golfer. So she's obviously very very passionate about being Spanish,
as she should be.

Speaker 4 (28:59):
Okay, she loves wearing Spain colors.

Speaker 3 (29:03):
But she looks like normal in them, and like they're
not like in your face, like you know, she looks
good in them, right, like a navy Yeah, it's a
subtle dude, What the fuck was he wearing? No, I'm sorry,
I'm not stylist. You know that, Kira, but I thought
it was a bit much. I thought it was a
little bit too bright for me. Like it was like

(29:23):
someone said, like ron On McDonald.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
Yeah, I did see that. The only thing that I will.

Speaker 4 (29:27):
Say is this is her cure being nice. Okay.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
Well, I just I think that so.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
Many people in golf land dress so boring and don't
do anything that you know, what if you want to
do something to stand out and actually make this look
like a fun sporting event or something the like go
off king like do your thing whatever.

Speaker 4 (29:48):
But don't you think it's like it's late.

Speaker 3 (29:49):
Like his logos, like his sponsor logos and his team
logos and stuff were just massive.

Speaker 4 (29:54):
Did you not notice that?

Speaker 2 (29:55):
I guess I didn't really. I just honestly distracted by
the bright red in the brake yell. I didn't even
get there.

Speaker 3 (30:02):
It was honestly like a beer mountain his chest. I
was like, yeah, I wasn't a fan. I'm not a
very colorful person anyway when it comes to the wardrobe.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
But it wasn't my favorite certainly. But I was like,
oh gotchap abs started cool, moving on. I wasn't really offended.

Speaker 4 (30:16):
Like I love how like we spoke. I love how
Jason Day went like looks.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
Ja K looked cool. He looked cool this time.

Speaker 4 (30:22):
We've said this before, but I'm really enjoying his style.
A minute.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
Yeah, yeah, I.

Speaker 3 (30:26):
Really liked it.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
I saw him.

Speaker 1 (30:28):
I did this, Oh, mel, this was the sickest thing
I got to I think I might have told you
a little bit about it, but I got to do this.
Inside the ropes walk you can talk with MINWOUI. It
was twelve questions on twelve. So I got to stand
on twelve tea, walk over the Hogan Bridge, stand on
the back of twelve Green, go up to thirteen tea,
watch them tea off through that little like that this
tiny window on that back tea. It's completely surrounded by

(30:50):
Azalea's and you're just like hitting through this little window there,
just gorgeous fairway and then walk down from a little
bit into thirteen Fairway.

Speaker 2 (30:59):
But so that was sick. But he was playing in
a group with Campsmith and Jason.

Speaker 1 (31:02):
Day and ja Day had on like a shirt that
had this like cool collar and it looks like it
could be a vacation shirt and these cool tapered pants
and the hit the advisor and the glasses and he
just looked like he was about to step.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
On a yacht. But yeah, forty. And they were so nice.
They were like, here, is this your first time back here?
I'm thirteen teen, and I was like, yes it is.
They're like, We're so happy we could be here to
witness you be here for the first time.

Speaker 4 (31:27):
It was so nice. That's pretty awesome by the way
you do that.

Speaker 2 (31:30):
Yeah, it was crazy.

Speaker 3 (31:31):
Like when you told me that, I was like, that
was pretty sick it was, And isn't it like really
quiet in the back, said, I can imagine it'd be
very kind of quiet. Yes, secluded, and it's kind of
any quiet place you go.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
But you can look over and see thousands of patrons
sitting sowesome, can you imagine? Okay, So when I was
inside the ropes soo and I'm standing on the tee,
there are thousands of patrons there and they're all well,
in my mind, they were all staring at me because
I was very out of place.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
Nobody walks inside the rope.

Speaker 4 (32:00):
They probably were staring you for many reasons.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
Kara, Well, I think they were like who is this chick?

Speaker 4 (32:04):
And what is she doing?

Speaker 2 (32:06):
Or whatever? But it just yeah, I definitely had a.

Speaker 4 (32:09):
Did you could you just feel the eyes on you?

Speaker 2 (32:10):
The eyes yeah, yeah, and like the murmurs and you know.

Speaker 4 (32:14):
Well, I'm sure you rocked it. I think that's pretty awesome.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
It was great.

Speaker 4 (32:17):
The video is I mean, yeah, it's awesome.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
But anyway, Jada's passion was great.

Speaker 4 (32:20):
Can we talk about your under the Umbrella please? Yeah? Well,
who is your favorite guests? You actually have some unbelievable guests,
so it's pretty difficult I'm.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
Sure Andandy would be mad at me if I didn't
say Mandy.

Speaker 4 (32:30):
Obviously, she was.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
My first guest and she really set the tone. Laura Rutledge,
who's a broadcaster for ESPN, was amazing. I've known her
for ten years because she was actually Miss Florida, so
I've known her a really long time. Yeah, and it
was just I don't know, she's just so such an
excellent communicator and tell stories and it's funny and it's

(32:52):
charming and just gets it.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
And so that was a really fun episode. So our
friend of the pod Mary Kate Morrissey, I sold that.
So I saw that, you know, I was so puffed.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
I wore a special outfit for her that was green
and like had little pink accents because you know, pink
goes good with green. And I got her to sing
a little bit of Georgia on my mind, Oh did
you yes?

Speaker 2 (33:19):
So this was the best part.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
I was like, you know, you just walk down these
fairways and you just start thinking like h and then
she picked it up and she was she goes.

Speaker 2 (33:29):
Georgia and she just went She was amazing.

Speaker 4 (33:33):
That that is so cool.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
So that was like my most proud moment. That I
got her to sing a little bit on the show.

Speaker 4 (33:39):
I will say like obviously I was.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
I was always keeping a very close eye on everything
you're doing, because you know, he goes put my girl
Kara sics of it all, Kia.

Speaker 2 (33:50):
Our team just did an incredible job.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
So our main set was set up on the par
three lawn and the azaleas in the par three Oh
my god, it was stunning. And plus then the umbrella
is super striking. Plus we have this Nia Horn was great.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
He was hilarious.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
Michael Strahan was awesome. Jojonas is great, super fun Clark,
she was so good. I'm interviewed her once before, and
that was more of like a sports interview, like we're
doing a walk and talk in a pro am and
it was, you know, five minutes pretty quick, and you're
just kind of getting through the questions. This is a
really nice format where you're just sitting down and having
a conversation.

Speaker 2 (34:24):
So she was.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
Relaxed and funny and told some nice stories and it
was it was nice to see her in that format
because I don't think that we get to see her
in that format very often.

Speaker 4 (34:34):
How is her golf game, by the way, is it
like she just getting into it? Is she pretty? She
been playing?

Speaker 2 (34:39):
She grew up playing casually with her family. She's probably
like a twelve or fifteen.

Speaker 4 (34:44):
That's pretty Deu's decent.

Speaker 2 (34:45):
Yeah, she's probably. She's pretty good.

Speaker 4 (34:47):
It's kind of what I am right now?

Speaker 2 (34:49):
Now, I am like that, not you, No, I am okay.
We had Jack and Barbara that was that was there
were so cool?

Speaker 4 (34:55):
Oh that is so cute. How old is Jack now?

Speaker 2 (34:58):
I think he's eighty eighty nine really, yeah.

Speaker 4 (35:02):
And Barbara's pretty similar age, right, she looks great.

Speaker 2 (35:05):
Yeah, yeah, they're troopers.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
But I was like, Barbara, how did you plan your
outfits for the Masters every year? And she goes, well,
for the first few years that we came, I bought
a new outfit for every single day and Jack goes,
you did.

Speaker 4 (35:25):
That's such a mad reaction, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (35:26):
They were so cute. And you know who else we
had on the show Bryson to Shambo. We didn't really
talk about before.

Speaker 4 (35:32):
Oh yeah, no, we didn't talk about. Actually how was
he He was good?

Speaker 2 (35:36):
Yeah, he was.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
You know, they're busy, they've got a lot of long
I think that he was really definitely trying to maintain
his energy. So he wasn't like YouTube Bryson, but he
was just like really insightful, calm Bryson, which was great.

Speaker 2 (35:50):
Yeah, we had we had fun. He was the only
player that did it, so that was cool.

Speaker 4 (35:55):
Okay, fair play to the lad Yeah, fair play to
the lads. Fair play to him on a busy week.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
Wait, wait, what did you think of Bryson on Sunday?

Speaker 4 (36:05):
Do you know what was funny? Okay?

Speaker 3 (36:07):
First of all, I listened to both their press converses
in the evening. Rory's like, I'm putting my phone away,
I'll watch a bit of TV. I'll get some food
when you go to bed. Next morning, I'm going to
watch sport. That's a great thing about your Sunday morning.
Blah blah blah blah blah. Probably watch something with poppy
rock to the course. Still, we'll not touch my phone.

Speaker 4 (36:22):
Until after the round.

Speaker 3 (36:23):
Bryson's like, oh, I'm just gonna be on my phone.
We obviously went for a walk that night and met
some random patrons.

Speaker 4 (36:29):
Right is this right? And then he started a putt
in com I.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
Did hear that, But then I heard that it might
have happened on Friday, Okay, yeah, I'm not sure, but yes,
he's definitely, but that's who he is. Doing a lot
of energy expenditure in his interpersonal things like.

Speaker 3 (36:44):
Walking onto the tea, Rory just stonefaced like killer kind
of looked like I'm fucking getting this done. Don't fucking
speak to me, and Bryson's like high five and everyone
like just loving it, do you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (36:54):
And I thought that that Bryson said after that Roy didn't.

Speaker 3 (36:57):
Speak to him to him the whole day, which hey, listen, yeah,
it's the big stay of his career, like if you
got to do what you gotta do.

Speaker 4 (37:04):
Yeah, you know. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (37:05):
And I don't know if Rory said this or somebody
else said this.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
I can't I don't know. I've seen so much Rory
content today I can't get it all straight. But it
was like in Rory's mind, he wasn't playing against Bryson
that day. He was playing against himself. So I think
in Rory's mind he probably was like, I'm not even
thinking about this guy, like yeah, yeah, get out of
my way so I can.

Speaker 3 (37:21):
Yeah. I thought he would have the way he started,
you know, you know, he took the lead off the
second hole. I thought it was going to be a
little bit more of a battle, to be honest with you.

Speaker 2 (37:28):
Yeah, he was struggling with his irons the whole week,
is what he said. Really, Yeah, he just didn't.

Speaker 4 (37:32):
Didn't He hit like a thousand balls a week, like
more than the Well, I just I don't.

Speaker 2 (37:36):
I don't understand how he doesn't injure himself.

Speaker 4 (37:38):
I know, No, it's really that's a lot. That is
a lot of golf balls.

Speaker 2 (37:41):
It is an insane amount of golf ball, I know.

Speaker 3 (37:43):
But yeah, No, I thought he would have been a
little bit more of a challenge. I thought it was
honestly going to be them two kind of running away
and having a little battle like we did the US Open.

Speaker 2 (37:51):
So yeah, I did not have Justin Rose playoff on
my bingo card.

Speaker 4 (37:55):
No, but I did.

Speaker 2 (37:56):
Okay, we'll take it.

Speaker 4 (37:57):
I mean, what fucking fun Sunday afternoon?

Speaker 1 (37:59):
That was?

Speaker 2 (37:59):
It was amazing. What else? Outfit and spell? Oh yeah,
did you like that your video?

Speaker 4 (38:03):
I thought you I was going to do it.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
You made a commitment publicly on this show. I did
Quiet Pleas with Menkere and I loved it.

Speaker 4 (38:11):
Thank you. Carlie edited it.

Speaker 2 (38:12):
Yeah, Charlie.

Speaker 4 (38:14):
Yeah, thanks Krlie love you took a bit of bribing.

Speaker 2 (38:16):
But does carl listen to our episodes?

Speaker 3 (38:18):
Yeah, I like walking in the gym at the gym
that we have at the house, and like it will
just be my last speaker.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
And you're like, turn it up.

Speaker 4 (38:25):
I don't want to hear my boy, my god, I
sound like such a bloke.

Speaker 1 (38:29):
Well, when you're trying to told me.

Speaker 3 (38:36):
You know, it's like that you don't like hearing your
own voice to you. I'm used to it, and I
have quite a low voice anyway. I've been told since
very for quite a few years now, I have quite
a low voice for a woman, which is not shocking
to many people.

Speaker 2 (38:47):
But you have a great voice. Smell Oh stop it.

Speaker 3 (38:50):
So she edits it and then I put the music together. Okay,
but I forgot to like lwer it when I was talking,
so I did mess it up. But that's what makes
it authentic. It's not my thing here, I'm doing my best.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
You should make it your thing because you're like, people
want to see you. Not sure about that they do.

Speaker 2 (39:06):
No, I have so many people come up to me
and they just want to talk about you, which I love.

Speaker 4 (39:11):
Here Okay, so this is the thing. This isn't a thing,
this is okay.

Speaker 3 (39:14):
I My best mates at home are my APSU family, right,
the Kellys, Nick and Brown, Okay, love them.

Speaker 4 (39:22):
Whenever I do something like that, I'm not shitting you.

Speaker 3 (39:24):
Within about twenty five seconds of me posting it, we
have a little group chat and they just.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
At me like they're giving you. They're giving you a
hard time.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
Oh my god, it is a dogfight.

Speaker 2 (39:34):
So the big thing about.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
Social media for me is pushing through shame and like
the shame that I would feel like what this person
would think or like sometimes my brother along gives me
a hard time shout out Dan, right, like they just
like love to go in and like you can sometimes
internalize it or at least yeah, And I know they
don't mean it, like they're just literally taking the piss.

Speaker 3 (39:55):
But I'm so insecure in that, like this is me
being frontable. I'm really secure about doing that shit, Like
it's not me. I'm more of like a I don't know.
And so when I do do it, and I'm like,
come on, girls, that's really good advice though.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
And you're like, god, I know. So I just think
of it as like you know what, Like I'm posting this.
This is my my job, my business, my life.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
This is content that is supplying some sort of value
to people, and like I get really great feedback too,
and like it's also sometimes for me you feel like
it's like self promotion or icky and like I.

Speaker 2 (40:26):
Don't know, but I'm in the I'm in show.

Speaker 4 (40:27):
This is show business, baby, show business baby?

Speaker 2 (40:32):
Are you not entertained?

Speaker 4 (40:33):
You're an actual pro.

Speaker 1 (40:35):
So you guys got to set it aside and just
push through the shame and like who cares? Who cares
what people think they can take the person. We can
all laugh about it.

Speaker 3 (40:42):
Yeah, and it's funny and listen, I would be the
first one so as well. So I'm listen. I totally
deserve it. But there is that little bit and I'm like,
I know what they're gonna say.

Speaker 2 (40:51):
It's like a cringe cringe factor. Oh. I was talking
to Halle about this. Halle led Better.

Speaker 1 (40:56):
We did a panel for the ann War Girls and
she was here about how she finds the confidence to
post the content that she does because it's all you know,
it's like skits and you know, she really puts herself
out there in.

Speaker 2 (41:07):
A comedy sense.

Speaker 1 (41:09):
And she said you have to climb cringe Mountain, which
I think a funny way of thing.

Speaker 4 (41:15):
That's actually pretty good. She's funny that she's very good at.

Speaker 2 (41:18):
That though, Halle.

Speaker 3 (41:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
But she also she has constantly put yeah, because you
could put something out that people think isn't funny, and yeah,
they'll let you know.

Speaker 4 (41:28):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (41:29):
I guess when we had that interview page that she
basically said this, didn't she like yeah, yeah yeah, and
everyone that I spoke to in the kind of that.
And I'm I don't want to be an influencer at all.
I'm not an influencer. I just want to kind of
just want to show me a bit more, just to
show them normal.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
You're such a unique character because you played professional golf.
You have all this great credibility. You also have an
amazing sense of humor and personality in this anyway, I'm
never giving a well, no, I.

Speaker 4 (41:52):
Appreciate you, thank you.

Speaker 2 (41:53):
You're just saying, people like the product here, okay.

Speaker 3 (41:56):
We'll see and if you don't like it, yeah, just
you don't used to look at it, but you yeah,
you're a pro.

Speaker 4 (42:01):
So I was trying to do a bit more of
your little back at the end. Yeah, do you like that?

Speaker 1 (42:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (42:05):
I love that.

Speaker 4 (42:06):
Thanks, I love that. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (42:08):
No, I actually tried to do it, so Carlia was
actually in the room when I filmed it. But the
first time I tried to do it a couple of
days earlier.

Speaker 4 (42:13):
And it's like no, She's like, we can't.

Speaker 3 (42:17):
This is just no. And I was like, what's wrong
with it? She's like, just no, and so she she
directed me a little bit. So fair play to my wife.
Thank you ever so much, bless car but thank you
Kira for the.

Speaker 4 (42:28):
Comments any time.

Speaker 2 (42:37):
All right, what are you up to this week?

Speaker 4 (42:39):
Well, it's mine and Carli's anniversary.

Speaker 2 (42:42):
How many here?

Speaker 4 (42:43):
Three?

Speaker 3 (42:43):
But for lesbian terms, it's more like dog years, so
it's like yeah, yeah, yeah, so it's been about twenty one. Congratulations,
thank you, but we're not we don't really celebrate. We
decided we're not going to do anniversaries anymore. She found
this cool thing and she wanted to do it. It's
called a family birthday, so like we're going to make
it tradition that we go.

Speaker 2 (43:01):
Oh, it's so cute. I'm gonna cry. That's so cute.

Speaker 3 (43:05):
Carlie and Kai or when we have future children, like
we go out to like a restaurant, or we go
and do something as a film instead of cards and shit,
I don't need a card of her gushing her love
for me.

Speaker 4 (43:14):
I like, I know she loves me, Like, oh, I
love a card?

Speaker 2 (43:16):
Well and he reads me some cute codes.

Speaker 4 (43:20):
Andrew absolutely legend. Yeah no, we're not into that.

Speaker 2 (43:24):
So that's what we don't do gifts like we I.

Speaker 1 (43:26):
Would rather you know why, I love a card because
Andrew is this like very serious. You know, it doesn't
show a lot of emotion in person, but in writing
he'll like say the things that I want to hear.

Speaker 2 (43:38):
So so yeah, so that's why I like that gift.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
Like, I don't know, I think feel like gifts are
weird for anniversaries unless it's like something major. I'd rather
do an experience, I say, restaurant or got a trip
or something.

Speaker 3 (43:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (43:50):
I'm not interested in all this.

Speaker 1 (43:51):
I don't need to like open something. Yeah, I only
want gifts on my birthday and Christmas.

Speaker 3 (43:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (43:56):
Same, Plus and choose your gift. He is, his presence
is a gift.

Speaker 1 (44:00):
Sorry, I've made this about myself. What are you guys
going to do for your family birthday?

Speaker 4 (44:04):
For a fundly birthday.

Speaker 3 (44:05):
There's a cool rom in place that we've always wanted
to check out down by the beach, so we're probably
just going to go for a bit ram and then
little walk on the beach. Kai's just fucking wants to
be outside, like ninety ninercent of the day. So yeah,
we'll probably go for the walk on the beach after,
but it'll be cute. So it's going to be called
our family birthday from now on, so cute.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
Yeah, I love that.

Speaker 4 (44:23):
What about you?

Speaker 2 (44:23):
I also have a lot of family stuff going on.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
It's the Dixon family annual Hawaii vacation to Maui. They
are all already there and I literally just got off
the plane an hour and a half ago from Augusta
National immediately had to.

Speaker 2 (44:41):
Sit down and talk to Malmoe on the podcast Priorities,
and then tomorrow I'm going to fly out and meet them.

Speaker 1 (44:49):
In the past, the trip has always coincided with the
Master's Tournament, so I've been able to go, Oh say,
I think.

Speaker 2 (44:57):
The third or fourth year of the trip, so I'm
to get to go for the first time.

Speaker 4 (45:01):

Speaker 1 (45:05):
It's it's some like very kid friendly, like not too
fancy resort that's right on the beach.

Speaker 4 (45:11):
Okay, so it's not like a white Lotus resort the
No No.

Speaker 2 (45:14):
No, which is a bit of a bummer for me.

Speaker 4 (45:17):
Same like that.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
Yeah, Like, you know, I'm obviously excited to see everybody,
but we have like eight or nine nieces or nephews.

Speaker 2 (45:25):
I've lost count at this point.

Speaker 4 (45:27):

Speaker 1 (45:35):
Yeah, yeah, it'll be so fun. I'm excited to sleep
in my own bed tonight and I'll be great. Next

Speaker 3 (46:03):
I'm going to Yeah, New York next week for a
couple of days, and then to this NBC Studios to
broadcast on the women's first major of the year, Chevron.
Oh do you know what I've So we have an
LPGA event in Hawaii. So I've been a couple of
times we go to the main island, so I haven't
I feel like I haven't really got like the most
experience out of Hawaii. Like I think I would love
like Kauai and like Maui, you would love Kauai. Yeah,

(46:25):
as Cardi says, I need to get to Kawai.

Speaker 1 (46:27):
During COVID, Andrew and I spent a month in Kawai.
We rented a house oh no, because I was I
had no work and Andrew works Fromotly. And it was
the most magical because Kawhi is super rugged and like
it's not as touristy and we just rode our bikes
into the little town every day, Pokey and shave ice
all day.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
They got Hanola Bay and like the water you can.

Speaker 1 (46:49):
Swim in, it's beautiful, there's turtles, people are surfing. I
mean it's and then you can go up and like
hike and all the amazing hiking stuff on the north Shore.
I mean it's just, yeah, you got to go to Europe.

Speaker 3 (46:59):
Person Cardi said that because she's been to quite a
few of them, and she's like, you would you would
like you change your opinion on it.

Speaker 4 (47:05):
Yeah, so that's on a bucket list.

Speaker 2 (47:07):
I've been in Maui before. I'm excited. It'll be nice.

Speaker 1 (47:09):
There's beautiful hiking and stuff, so we'll do that. Yeah,
and it'll be nice. I've been on the road for
a really long time, almost six weeks. And to be honest,
I somebody asked me about Andrew at some point, like
over the last couple of days, and I just like
started crying. I was just so homesick, I get, you know, Yeah,
I was so I was so grateful to be doing

(47:29):
what I'm doing. And I think the only the only
way I got through six weeks was the fact that
I was literally working on the Master's Moment.

Speaker 2 (47:35):
Like that's yeah, but it was I definitely it's still
a lot, though.

Speaker 1 (47:39):
Yeah, I just reached my limit of like chatting every
day with people and and like doing all this work
and research and creating content for all these different shows
that I was working on, and like it's it's such
a privilege. I'm so, so so grateful. I loved every
single second of it. But my brain is officially mush
so I need to d mush over the next.

Speaker 4 (48:01):
Way you did. Crush it. You crush it.

Speaker 3 (48:03):
She should be proudy South. Thank you bringing the skillet
and the travel kettle to MAUI.

Speaker 4 (48:07):
Hell no, there we go.

Speaker 2 (48:08):
There's a service in my future.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
The only reason I bring that stuff is because it
just takes forever to like, who has time for a
civilized breakfast when you're working?

Speaker 3 (48:16):
True, well, you have a lovely time care keepers. In fact,
don't keep me, don't keep up to state.
