Speaker 3 (01:23):
The family traveled with me, Carl and Kai, because I
haven't seen them for like a month. I've been like
home here like a day in between every event, but
which has been carnage actually to be honest with you,
but yeah, they came out, which is actually kind of
cool because it's been like a bit of a full
circle moment bringing Kai out because I obviously won there
in twenty twenty and I was walking on course this week,
which I love doing, so yeah, it was fun.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
My favorite bar.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
There is Mcgedigan, so I had the pleasure of taking
my eighteen month old son there a couple times.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Three times.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
We love a baby in a bar, We love baby
in a bar.
Speaker 3 (01:55):

her to do, which was very selfish of me, but image.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Against Yes, perfect, perfect babe, Don't worry, It's gonna be
a party for you.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Yeah for me, yeah. Yeah, for me, it's all about me.
But it's just easy because they have a really cool
outdoor bit there, like during the tournament they do Tim
the guy who owns it.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
There's an unbelievable set up there, like they've.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Got like little like bars everywhere, like little mini bars
everywhere outside, and it's kind of where all the fans go.
And Carli's family live in Philly, a lot of her
family and so they all come down for that event.
So it's just like the one time of year that
we get to see kind of the Bell side of
the family and the Grenfell side of the family. So
it's always a fun time. And Carli's mom dad came
(02:40):
down early because we're on family vacation this week where
they are. I'm only hit for three days, but it
was a great week. I enjoyed it. The weather was
a bit shit yesterday though. It was absolutely rank.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
What did you have to stop playing?
Speaker 4 (02:51):
No delays, It's just no, it was just gross.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Just walking The bugs here, yeah, yeah, and the bugs
here are There's two things that are the most annoying
thing to me in the world, and that is Myers
Starks Caddie Jeff Brighton After two Gin and Tonics.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
He's pretty annoying and the bugs were pretty close to that.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Actually, he's pretty annoying when he wins to the US
Women's Open.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
He sent me on Instagram DM saying thanks for all
the congratulations.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Do you know what's funny?
Speaker 3 (03:19):
I spoke to Maya and she's like, he has not
replied to anyone. So the fact that he's replied to
you says something big about that career.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
He doesn't reply to any what can you say? What
can we say?
Speaker 1 (03:32):
So?
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Yeah, but it was good. Apart from that, Apart from
the bugs in the weather, it was great.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
And Jennifer cup Cho was the winner.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Jennifer cup Cho won. She came close a couple of times,
so it was nice to get the job done. And
then there was a girl called Many people won't know
about this, but.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
Ill he Lee.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
She hasn't played much because she's had injury, and she
won an event years ago in Bahamas and it was
so the weather was so bad there the whole course
flooded when she won and it got the last round
got cut like twelve holes. And so Alison Walsh's another
good friend of mine.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
He used to put on tour.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
She said she actually she shot like fifty nine that day,
and so she tells everyone that she shot fifty nine
but just doesn't mention that it was only over twelve hour.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Course that's my strategy.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
I mean, eighteen holes is too much anyway, wait, way
too much. But il he Lee like literally took her
down to the wire. And il he Lee is like
fourteen hundred and fifty six ranks in the world, so
it literally would have been like one of the coolest stories.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
She handled herself.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Yeah, it was, yeah, literally on the craziest upsites on
the LPGA. So she played amazing. So it was actually
really fun to kind of watch both of them battle
it out and it was good.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Did you know both you and I are winners in
Atlantic City? As America took place in Atlantic City. No way,
these are two Atlantic City icon's sitting down here because

Speaker 4 (05:10):

all of us, so yes, it's me.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Oh okay, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
I just love that we have this Atlantic city connection.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Lane City is weird. I drove through it a couple times.
It's a bit odd. How was your week in oh? Canada?
Speaker 4 (05:26):
So?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
My week in Canada was great.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
The people of Canada are very enthusiastic about golf, very lovely.
I worked the All Songest Day qualifier on Monday, which
is always a fun day in golf to see who
gets into the US Open. And then, of course Ryan
Fox won the RBC Canadian Open in a four hole
playoff over Sam Burns.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
In theory, I love a playoff, like as a golf fan, I.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Love a playoff, but as a professional broadcaster who has
to get to the next tour stop, the four les
is tough when you're to try to make a flight.
My flight ended up being canceled, so it didn't matter anyway.
But I have to tell you this story. On Golf's
Longest Day on Monday, this guy was very nice, very enthusiastic,
(06:11):
about Canada and the various sports here. Kept coming up
to me, kept coming up to me, wanted to chat
lah la lah, you know. I'm just like, yeah, you know,
I'm working for Golf Channel. And finally, at the end
of the day, he comes up and he hands me
his phone. He goes, can I follow you on Instagram?
He's a bit of an older gentleman. I said sure,
So okay, he didn't know my name. So he hands
(06:31):
me his phone so that I can put my hand,
my Instagram handle into the search bar on Instagram so
he can follow me. And you know how, on the
for you page, on the search page, it shows you
suggested content based on your algorithm of what you're already consuming.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
It was just boobs, fair play to the lad fair play, creep.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
It was a lot of inappropriate content that I just
and then he sees me see it, and thank god
there's Caddie. Austin Gogert, who was cuttying that day for
duvid Ford, was standing there because we had been having
a conversation and this man had interrupted us to ask
for this thing, and so Austin witnessed.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
The entire thing.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
I'm so because this type of stuff happened to me
all the time, but nobody's over there to see it.
So Austin was there to witness and the guy goes,
I don't know why I always get served this content.
It's so ridiculous, it's so inappropriate.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
And I was like, sure, sure, ready.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Do you know what.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
I'm not against it if you you know, if you
get to a certain age, you just don't care against it.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
But it just was it was the cover up, and
it was just it was a perfect like oh my god,
this man, Oh that's hilarious.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Now he's creeping on you.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Oh as you liked twenty of your fotos from like
two thousand and eight or something.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Literally like comment on all my stuff. So if you're listening, sir,
thanks for the follow. I appreciate you engaging in my content.
Everyone counts. Oh say So the Canadian Open was really
It's a great golf tournament. They have that rink hole
the fourteenth hole where it's like all the hockey boards
are up. I got to do some walking talks, got
(08:14):
to talk a little golf, talk a little hockey. I
love getting out on the golf course similar to you,
and just actually getting to be in it and doing
those walk and talk during the golf tournament Ryan Fox is.
I think this is because he's international players from New Zealand.
He really gets it when it comes to media stuff,
and he did on the final round. He did a
(08:35):
pre round interview in the broadcast, so before his final
round cool and then after yeah, after he won, obviously
did a ton of media and.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Just he doesn't just check the box.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
He gives good, insightful, meaningful answers, so that the time
that he's taking to spend time with you, you're getting
something out of and the audience is getting something out
of the time that they're putting into watch and't it
just Yeah, So I really have a lot of respect
for him and how he handles himself in that way.
And obviously he's been a late blomer on the PGA
Tour and then now all of a sudden he's a
(09:08):
two time winner, and really just yeah, happy for him
because his family was being they were just basically no
mads around the country living in hotels with two baby girls,
and now he's like going to live in Jupiter and
joined the Bears Club and live his best life.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Yeah. I've always been a fan of Ryan Fox. We played.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
We played in Australia years ago and he was like
in the group Bahamias when we had that mixed event
twelve years ago.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
It was like twenty eighteen or something.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
And he like hit up into me because obviously so long,
isn't he And he's like, oh, I'm so sorry. I was like, no, dude,
Like that was sick. I'm like I can't leave. How
far you hit it? And got chatted to him and
he is awesome, Like I've always been a fan of him.
I think he's just such a good guy. Like he's
just a yeah dude, do.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (09:47):
His dad is a rugby legend in New Zealand. He's
like a legendary All Blacks player.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Yeah. Oh and the All Whites were there. They were
at the golf tournament. The soccer team no way, yeah,
the the national football team. They somehow got connected with
Ryan and they were all there cheering him on the
whole day.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
And I talked to one at one point and he
was like, Fox, he's such a big deal back home.
We're so excited. It's really cute.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Oh that's sick.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
That's really cool. That's really cool. Yeah, he's a good lad.
He's got massive forums as well, and his forums like
the size of my thighs.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Have you ever noticed that?
Speaker 2 (10:26):
I think that he could have been an athlete in
any that he could have.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Been a hockey player, rugby player. I don't know how
he ended up in golf.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Yeah, what's your plan with your fam this week?
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Well?
Speaker 3 (10:37):
The weather is dog shit, so we're trying to entertain
the kiddos. So I think we're going to go to
the zoo today. I didn't even know there was a
zoo around here, but we're going to go to the zoo.
Speaker 1 (10:48):

Speaker 3 (10:52):
Did you hear about that zeb brother escaped from Tennessee
and then it had to get airlifted back in.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I saw the airlift put to the music of Defying Gravity.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Oh my god, so good dude. I love at other
escape animal. I think it's hilarious. And it was just
a zebra just like this. Where is Zebra play to

what to tell you.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Okay, Zebra was getting air lifted.
Speaker 1 (11:24):

somehow bring in a wicked reference.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
So, yeah, we're going to go to the zoo today
and then I don't know what we're doing tomorrow. I
think it's going to be a bit better tomorrow, so
we might head to the beach.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Try and go to the beach. And then Wednesday we're
going to a Phillies game. Fun.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
I can go to New York on Thursday. Yeah, we're
going to We got to get to go to Philly.
So I've never watched I've never been to a Phillies game,
so that will be fun. And then I go to
Stamford Commentary on feature groups for the US Open. Oh
you won't be on Saturday morning on no I know,
I know, Oh boom, I know.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
So we're going to do a little bit of a
US Open preview. But there's something else that's happening this
summer that's all starting to premiere, which is a really
big deal in my world, and that that is the
new seasons of Love Island. So Love Island USA is
already your favorite, and Love Island UK is I think
(12:38):
premiered last night maybe on ITV. So in honor of that,
I've been dying to have a Love Island conversation with you,
just from a terminology standpoint. So I have a list
of terms I've been keeping and I thought we could
go through and you can maybe translate for the people.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
I got you.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Okay, before we start, this might be someoneing goes that
even I don't know because of where you live in
the UK, but I'm going to give it my best shot.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
So that's crazy to because it's such a small country
and it's you go from one county to the next.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
And it's significantly different.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
It's actually really funny you mentioned this because my brother
in law last night, Billy, it.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Was Billy and Whitty, my brother and sister Lord.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
They were saying, oh, can you say microwave and I
was like microwave, Like no, no, it's not a British people
say it because have you ever seen that clip of
Nigella the Chef and she's like making something and she goes,
I'm just going to go put it in the micro
wave and I'm like, no, that's not she's.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
There are people in the UK that actually say microave. No,
that's got to be just a nigella thing.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
No, but it's not the first time someone's asked me.
We don't say micro wave. She's just odd in Welsh.
So it's called pop ti ping. Oh what in the
Welsh language. The Welsh have their own language, which is
just nuts. It's like insane. My microwave is a pop
to ping.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Pop to ping, pop to ping, pop to pin.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Pop to ping pop to ping. Don't quote me on that,
but that's what I was told. I've been told that
by numerous Welsh people. And like jellyfish is pisco whibbly wobbly,
it is jellyfish.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
What did you just call me?
Speaker 4 (14:06):
Yeah, pisco of whibley wobbly, whibbly wobbly.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
I can't say the first part, but whibbley wobbly sounds fantastic.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Yeah. I think I'm gonna be good at this game. Okay, okay,
all right.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
So, like it's just a bunch of terms that I
didn't know before Love Island and now I feel like
I do.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
So he's waffling shite, he's chatting shit.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
You just translated that into a British in another British
way to say it.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Yeah, sorry, he's not He's making no sense. He's just
what every's saying is complete.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
Yes, basically, it's just chatting shit.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Yeah, load of bollocks.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Load of bollocks, just a load of bollocks. I can't
actually translate that because a load of bollocks is just.
Speaker 4 (14:43):
Again just I think it's like bullshit. Yeah, Like if
you said.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Something about that's a load of bollocks, that's not yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
you're lying.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
So I have to use this one in a sentence like, oh,
like it's crazy in this gaff.
Speaker 3 (14:55):
Gaff is like, well you can use that in certain
context of so it's crazy, this guff like crazy in
this like atmosphere, like crazy in this house. It's normally
like the crew, but we also call a boss like
a gaffer. So like when we used to play football,
the manager would be called the gaffer.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Hm, that's interesting. But is that a regional thing?
Speaker 4 (15:12):
Thank you?
Speaker 3 (15:14):
That's pretty generic. I think actually, I think that's pretty generic.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Okay, I feel like you don't say this a lot,
but there's a whole contingency on theve Isoland. Let's say
in it after every single thing that's a Charlie Charlie thing, that's.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
A Charlie whole thing. Yeah, in it like it.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
That's more like not that Charlie is, but like Chavs
say it quite a lot like a Chavi is like
someone who wears like a full Nike track su with
like Nike shocks on and a burbery hat that's halfway
on their head.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
That's what Chavis and they say in it.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Every Yeah, it's as well get in it. Getting Larry
getting Larry is like, oh, she's getting well Larry and
she like you uosees getting in many contexts like we
use it in our friendship group, like if if I'm
being a bit piepy, so if I'm being like, oh gosh,
how can.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
I say this?
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Like if I'm getting a bit loud, if I'd had
a few drinks and I'm getting a bit loud the
people my mates but.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Always getting a bit Larry and she, or if I'm
like a bit like.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
If my mates are trying to fish like you're starting
to My mates are trying to fish me in, like
we said fishermen like you cast it and I bite.
So if they're trying to get me to wind me
up and I bite, they'll be like, oh, you're getting.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
A bit Larry, getting a bit Larry.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
I like that one, mugged off. I can't tell you
how many. When when I first started watching, it was
googling what is a mug.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Yeah, mugged off is like, Oh, he's proper mugging you
off there, Like again, can we be using many context
It's like he's taking the piss out of you, or
he's like mugging you off, like making you look stupid,
or he's just you know, not interested.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
It's kind of like that. Have you got anymore a
bell end?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
That one I had?
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Oh my god, bell end is my absolute favorite. I
use that word a lot. My mother in laws outsets.
But basically, so you know that, and well you know
this better. You know they end of a penis and
it looks like a little bell. It's that bell end.
Stay silly and knob. They still look like that, right.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
You're a questiony sh Sorry, we'll move on.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
So people from the North say instead of how do
you feel about me? They say how do you feel
about us? Or come and give us a hug? Or
she's mugged us off? And yeah, when I'm watching, I'm like,
who is us?
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Who are these people? But it's just they're talking about themselves.
They're talking about themselves as the person. But it's us why.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Really, we just say it. I sometimes she prop and
mugged us off. Yeah, really, I don't know. We're just weird. Yeah,
Like because I don't know where I'm from. In Darby,
I'm very middle so like we say kind of a mixture.
But we would say yeah, some of us would say
us if you're from the north.

us off.

for the next three months because of Love Island, so
I just needed to brush up.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
I'm really excited.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
And now there's Love Island USA and Live Island UK
to be abreast of.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
You know what they don't do anymore.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
They the only people that come into the show now
are very They all have a ton of plastic surgery.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
They all have a lot of lip filler. They all
look a little you know, they're of that elk.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
And there was this season, it was season five, this
girl named Camilla Thurlow was on the show and she
was literally a like a nonprofit worker that went into
countries that had had warfare recently and she deactivated explosive.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Device ordinances or something like that.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Like she she had a real job and like a
ton of education.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
She was just a normy.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
So a normal girl thrown into this world with like
Chris Hughes and Olivia Atwood and that, you know, the
people that we kind of the normal people that we
would see on Love Island. And it was so great
because it was comparing her experience of just trying to
truly just trying to find love and come out of
her shell and find her confidence versus these people that
(20:44):
are perfect for reality television, but they don't do that anymore.
So my plea to the Love Island gods is to
please send a normy in there.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
But you're right now, I feel like they're all bit fake,
aren't they. They're out there to be influences and like
come out because you get really famous for that show
they didn't like ducks. Yeah, they but they all the
girls are like ducks because they've had so much lip
filler in them.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Well to each their own, like you, if you want
your lip filler, go for it. But I feel like
a lot of them come out and they get a
lot of the lip filler and filler in general dissolved
because they see it on TV and they're like, oh,
maybe it was a bit much. And then they end
up looking really really good after the show. But once
they go in, it's like they've done all this stuff
to try and be this thing.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
And you know, it's also hard.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
To constantly look cute when it's hot out and you're
on TV.
Speaker 4 (21:32):
Yeah, twenty four hours a day with lip filler. Do
you just get it done once or do you have
to keep getting it done.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
I've never had lip filler, but I think that it's uh,
you get it touched up every like six to nine
months or something like that.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Are you considering it?
Speaker 3 (21:47):
I did once. I was like really close to getting
it done. I just thought it would be really funny
because well, basically I put this filler, you know, not
Instagram they have them fillers, and you know, the ones
with the big lips, the filler with the big lips,
and it's basically filter.
Speaker 4 (21:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Yeah, you got like the bug eyes and then you
got the big lips. Well I actually thought it looked
great like that, and so that's what made me think
everybody thinks they'll.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
Get the third major championship of the year for the men.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
The US Open is headed to Oakmont.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Everything that I've heard has been that it's going to
be absolute carnage. I saw a podcast clip this morning
of Ben Griffin on barstool saying that he would sign
for four over for the tournament right now and still
think that he's got a chance to win. And it's
been rainy and gross. So have you ever been to Oakmont?
Speaker 4 (22:36):
Well, I haven't, but I will say so.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
I've saw some videos as well of like how brutal
the rough is and how difficult it's going to be,
and I feel like that is the narrative every single
US Open, and it's never as bad when the tournament days.
I feel like the USGA keep the rough hine and
then literally the night before they do chop it down
ever so slightly, and it does make it slightly easier.
And I'm not not saying easy or anything like that,
like it's still the hardest test. But I do feel
(23:02):
like this is the narrative of every single Men's US
Open and Women's US Open is like how difficult it is,
and then they start to play the torn and it's
not quite as savage as they actually think it is.
Do you think that as well?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Yeah, But for some reason, everybody has been like Rory
said that he went on Monday of last week, he
flew up there just for the day to play and
have a practice round, and he was saying, it's going
to be absolutely brutal. There's going to be a lot
of people that are going to be complaining about it.
And it just seems like the narrative around Oakmont every
(23:35):
person that I've talked to, even Ryan Fox in his
winter interview, he goes, yeah, you know, I'm just gonna
go straight from here to go get my you know,
get absolutely punished, get my ass kicked at Oakmont. But
whatever I'm in the US Open, it just seems to
be the throwaway comment that everybody makes about it.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Is it the rough that's so difficult about it, or
is it I've never been Is.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
It like the Green complex like what is it?
Speaker 2 (23:55):
I don't know, you're the answer, and I just work here.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Okay, well, I know the rough is horrific, but then
someone was talking to me about the green that the greens.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Yeah, the ruff is always horrific a us Yeah, and
then apparently.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
The Greens are just like deadly so and I'm sure
they'll be running at like twelve thirteen. So yeah, it's
going to be a challenge for sure. Like I also
heard that Rory and Shane like when they went out,
and I think Shane hit every fairway in one of
like on one of the nines, like every single phone
shot like three over.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
So we shall see. It's good entertainment for us sitting here.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Great, But yeah, the USJA do like to ramp it up,
don't They make it extra tough for the boys.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
And I think that this week people are probably all
going to be picking Scottie Shuffler to win.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
I mean, how can you not.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
It seems most likely Rory had a bit of a
tough day on Friday in Canada. He missed the cut.
He shot seventy eight. I want to say he was
struggling off a tea. So I don't think I don't
think that he fixes the driver woes between now and then.
I'm sure you play as well. You know, it has
(25:01):
a fine week, but I wouldn't pick Worry to win.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Scottie.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
On the other hand, Sam Burns playing incredible, Cameron Young
playing incredible. I would take a look at some of
the guys that are that just did really really well
at the on the final round of the RBC Canadian Open.
If you've got like a pool with your friends or
something like that, I would I would pick some of
those guys because they played really well on a difficult
golf course and they can keep the momentum going.
Speaker 4 (25:25):
Mm hmm. Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
I think I don't think Tommy's gonna do it because
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
I love Tommy, Tommy, I know.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
I think it's going to be a top ten play
in the world that's going to win.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
I feel like the cream will rise to the top
at Oakmont. So I'm gonna guess top ten playing in
the world, and that's about as vague as I'm going
to be.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Okay, So two things in our dms and then we
can wrap.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
One was some gentleman.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
His Instagram name is Allie Oops seven sent me pictures
of you in your short shorts. Oh gorge, and the
message just said short shorts.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
So people are appreciating you with your short shorts.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
There is a story behind that.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
So basically we got you get given these shorts and
obviously I don't like them because they're basically down to
my knee, and I'm like, absolutely.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
These are pictures of mel the Solheim Cup. If you're
not watching on YouTube.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Sorry, yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
And so me and Charlie, both of us were like,
we need these short like and the woman's like, oh,
how short?
Speaker 4 (26:29):
And I said, well, I like my shorts quite short.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
So because we have like a tailor on site, so
we get back and obviously I'm not trying them on.
I'm just like, oh yeah, they look about right. But
with the like it was like a Nylony material. And
me and Charlie were first out. I was sitting the
opening T shirt on Friday morning.
Speaker 4 (26:47):
And they're white shorts.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Dude, I stick these things on and for some reason,
like my ass just like gobbled them up and I
just was like, there is there is nothing here. This
is the it's just the song this point, and they
just kept riding it. Up, Like the more I played it,
the more like sweaty and stuff like me and Charlie both.
I mean, Charlie's was even worse because Charlie had hers
even short than mine. Like, it was horrific how short
(27:11):
they make, Like I'm not joking you, Like you could
literally see my ass she hanging out, and they were
very short, and obviously all my shorts then had been
tailored to that length. And so all week I was
basically wearing hot pants and it was the white shorts
really were a little bit, a little bit much. Got
a lot of comments about them, not necessarily all positive.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
So but your fans were loving it.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
But yes, it was. It was a little much. They're
definitely they were way too short for me even back then.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Well they're still appreciated years later, thank you. So we
got a DM from someone you know named Carly Reid
oh do, and she had a submission for the name
of our fan base. She might have told you this,
I don't know. She said the talkers, Oh.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
That's quite good. She's quite good at things like this.
Carlie's very good at things like this, Carly, Carly, that's
not bad. Actually, no, she didn't tell me that.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Yeah, but I just I thought it was so funny
that there's a d M from Carly on the account.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Carl when she could just tell her wife who sat,
or just tell her wife.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
She knows that if she tells you, you're not going
to say it. You're going to forget about it.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Yeah, I usually forget everything. I do. Quite like that.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
I like it too good too. I still, so we'll see.
We can't decide. It has to be a decision of
the people, so we'll see what catches on. So if
it's qp's, if it's Talkers, if it's something else. We're
still taking submissions. Do you have a shreshit of the week?
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (28:40):
I do actually, which is a bit controversial probably, But
so we've obviously had Cai on the road with us
last week, and we obviously traveled with a pack and play.
It's not his temper mattress that he's used to, and
so in a hotel room is quite difficult with a child,
especially with a bougie ass child like my sperm. And
(29:00):
he loves waking up at two am then not going
back to sleep and so, and he's a great sleeper normally,
but he wakes up and he wants to like we
have to obviously like try and rock him, and he's
like absolutely not, No, I'm like a bit awake. So
we put him in the bed with us and he's
just he plays the drums. He poking my eyes, poking
my nose.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
This is it two in the morning.
Speaker 4 (29:21):
Yeah, he's been doing it every night we've been here.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
And the amazing thing is like, so when we have
when we do a nap at home, obviously his room
is like really dark. We have like blackout curns. We've
got a hatch, so like the sound machine is perfect.
You know, he's got his temper mattress. The temperature control
is sublime, and he'll not maybe like our and a
half to two hours. We took him to LPGA daycare
(29:43):
last week and they sent us a picture like should
we wake him?
Speaker 4 (29:46):
And he's I should you not.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
He's on a gym map on the floor with like
all the light on and they had to wake him
up after three hours. And I'm like, you shit, like
you have to have the most perfect setting for but
you're on literally a matt and the having to wait
you up after three hours in the bright lights. So
I'm just like, this is just sick. So, yeah, that's
(30:08):
my shush of the week. Is having a bougie ass sperm.
It's your sperm, it's my spim. Yeah, that's my shush
of the week. Is having a eighteen month old in
the same room as you in the hotel for.
Speaker 4 (30:18):
A whole week.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Oh my god, could not be me.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
Do you have one?
Speaker 1 (30:20):
I don't have an eighteen month old, but I do
have a shush. My shush is the Toronto Airport. I
feel like all my shushes are travel related, but that's
just these are the things that really are the pain
points in my life. So I after a four hole
playoff last night, I drove an hour to the airport.
(30:41):
As I am pulling in on time, barely, but I
still I can make the flight. I'm pulling in to
drop off my rental car. I get a text that
says your flight has been canceled and I I'm trying
to get to the US open.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
Was there any reason behind the cancelation?
Speaker 1 (30:59):
So I went to then you know, because I'm already
pulled into the rental car thing. So I leave the car,
I get all my bags, I go to the Air
Canada desk and the guy said the reason they canceled
it was because the crew couldn't get through customs. Okay,
I don't know what that means or how that could
possibly happen.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
So funny story about Toronto airport. I had to leave
the country once my vis Earth. It was a couple
of years ago, just for like a couple of days.
So we went to Toronto. Loved Toronto. We then get
to the airport three hours before our flight because Carli
is a bit like obsessed with getting there ready. I
would have got there and out before, but thank god
we did. Because it's six am in the morning. It
(31:36):
took us two and a half hours to get through customs.
We barely made our flight and I was like, what
is going on here?
Speaker 2 (31:42):
Oh shit, I gotta go. Then my flight soon.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Yeah, you probably should go. Honestly, it's a pain in
the house. It's what I agree with you. It's one
of the worst.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
So love the people of Canada. Love Canada. The food
is great, but your A report sucks. So somebody's got
to do something about that. Is my shush of the week.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
Okay, Well, I'm excited to hear your voice this week.
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
I'm excited to hear yours because I do every week.
You better get going. Let us know how it goes all.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
