(00:24):
to Quiet Please, Kira here, and I'm so happy to
say that Mel is back this week. Hi man, I
am back.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Thank you, Kira, pick shout out to Michelle, MKA and
Hallie for filling in while I was missing in action.
So thank you very much everybody, and I'm now back.
So unfortunately you have to listen to me again.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
You were very missed. We got lots of messages of like,
when Mel's back, can you guys talk about this? Blah
blah blah, let's go. But yeah, you know, it was
fun to get to chat with our friends and have
those conversations, but obviously it was under not nice circumstances.
And you know, I love you, and yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Yeah, and thank you ever so much for everyone who's
reached out for Obviously, my dad's passing, so it's been
a rough couple of weeks. Yeah, I'm not going to
talk about it, but I just want to say thank you.
It's been very appreciative.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Yeah. Thanks.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Yeah, we're gonna keep it like this would be a
nice yeah distraction, and you got to kind of get
back to a normal last week you Yeah, worked for
the first time. I did.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
I did.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
I worked at Seeming last week with the Myth, the Man,
the Legend that is Brendle Chamberlee and the posh BESI
which is Anna Jackson.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
So the career was back together, Yeah, as we.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
I love working with them too. Obviously everyone. I don't
know if people know. Brandon has been a bit of
a mentor to me, so he's a good guy to
learn from. Obviously been there twenty plus years, kind of
took me onto his wing a little bit. And then
obviously I've known Anna for over a decade, so we
just reminisced on the good old British days in the
nineties and early two thousands, and we just drive Brandle
(02:08):
absolutely nuts all weeks. So it was good to get
back in the rhythm of things. I bought Carli and
Kai out, which was a lot, not not that it's
just you know what, it's like, you're way more busy
than you think you are. And Carlie Blesser stepped up
to the plate and basically just looks after Kai's solo
parenting and then whenever I could, I would meet with them.
(02:29):
But yeah, it was nice to have the family there.
Like it was just I just wanted to Cai around me.
I haven't seen him for two or three weeks just
with everything that's been going on.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
I've had to go back to England a couple of times, so.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
I wanted him around and it was just it was
nice to get back in the rhythm of working again.
You know how it is, you have a couple of
weeks off, you want to get back into a bit
of and everything.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
That's gone on, I wanted a bit of normality and
it was fun.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
End of the year lashed event on the LPGA, Big deal,
big deal, big deals of money, lots of money and
a new announcement. Craig ca So the Commissioner made an
announcement about new TV deal which is very exciting, very exciting,
very exciting.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
So every round in the LPGA will now be streamed live.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
We're going to have track man, a lot more technology,
so basically a lot more visibility. So he's being the
boss now for what the Commission for just over one
hundred days and he's getting shit done. So he's deferent,
his moneywy his mouth is and big thanks to FM
as well Global they've been a huge investment in that.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
So it's going to be a game changer, I think.
I think it's going to be.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Hopefully it's the first step of many into into really
making the LPGA more visible.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
So when Michelle was on last week two weeks ago,
I asked her very specifically, what are we doing, what
do you want to see from the new commission and
she talked about this exactly, and then the next week
there was the announcement. So we just would like to
say that here and quiet, please, we manifest things that
come to ruition and make things happen. We are the
(03:58):
change agents in the world and if you would like
something change, just send us a DM. We'll work on
you for you. We got you, we got you. You know.
Obviously we work with Golf Channel, so we're really excited
to see Golf Channel getting in there and putting their
money where their mouths are and really investing into the
women's game and seeing it not as a charity, not
(04:21):
as like a nice to do, but like we need
to do this for our bottom line because this is
where the game is going. So it'll be great, it'll
be really exciting one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
I can agree more with you, and I think for
me as well, the prize money has exponentially risen over
the last five years six years. The prize money for
me is not the issue at all. I feel like
we're actually there or very close to where we need
to be, and I think that that's huge. People like
you know, not to get into the details of it,
but you know Terry Duffy who runs Seeing Me, who
is an unbelievable guy, by the way, like gives so
(04:53):
much to like since Jude, like the kids that are sick,
like their parents don't have to pay for any health
like care. We met a couple of the kids like
He's just a really really unbelievable guy to be honest
with you, But someone like him who really stepped up
to the plate. A few years ago at Seeing Me
made the prize money, you know, four million, which was huge,
and then I think it was seven, and then ten
and now eleven. Had to get the other tournaments up
(05:15):
to that level, like KPMG then did it anyway, long
story shot. I do feel from a prize money perspective,
I feel like we're.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Almost there.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Now. We just need to get the visibility and make
these athletes on our tour kind of the celebs and
the stars that they absolutely should be because then, and
it is this old school way of me thinking, but
like it's all for the little girls and the little boys,
and you know, I want more women to get into golf,
and the more visibility of that on our TVs and
(05:45):
in the marketing industry, it's only going to help.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
So it's a good thing here. It's a great thing.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
It's a great thing, and.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Everybody wins, so we shall see. But he creates a
good lad and he's done a great job so fast.
It's not an easy job, and he's he's kind of
already doing things, so it's exciting.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
It's exciting.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I'm sure he'll be happy to know that you said
he's a good lad.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
I told him that.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Actually, I've got a couple of good chats with Craig.
He came on the desk yesterday or on Sunday. Sorry,
he's so young, he's like thirty nine.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Well, he's definitely cooling with it because he told Michelle
that he listened to her part episode. So oh did he?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
So?
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Hi, Hi, Craig, Craig, listen, I love you, love you,
Craig love You're doing great, speedy head, you know. And
I was looking at him the other day and I
was just chatting to him and how you're thirty eight, Yes,
older than you?

Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yes together. I know. This is what I'm saying. I've
never felt so underachieved in my life ever.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I was just looking at him, full face of makeup,
hair down, uncomfortable as fuck.
Speaker 1 (06:54):

go to the side.
Speaker 3 (06:59):

Speaker 1 (07:00):

moment now. Okay, Now to the real issue and the
real topics of conversation.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Yes, okay, so I wore.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
It up, which I normally do. But obviously I've had
it cut to that. I've told you this, but I
had it like six months ago.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
This.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
We had this whole conversation about me wearing my hair
down because I want to be a cool lesbian mum, right,
I don't want to be like like top burn. I
love a top burn, not against top burn, but it's
very like twenty ten lesbian. And I want to be
a bit more modern, bit more sexy.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
It's a millennial lesbian for sure.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah, and I want to be a bit more trendy lesbian. Mum.
You know, I just if I'm going to start doing
school runs soon, like I just you know.
Speaker 1 (07:49):

Speaker 2 (07:50):
I can't show up looking, yeah, exactly exactly. And so
I had my haircut. Shout out to mal In mal
Rooney in Jacksonville, Ivy salon. She's awesome. I'm actually devastated.
I'm not going to be able to have her and
I'm in oh color. You know, it's like here a
devastad Anyway, Yeah, so I had to have the first
(08:11):
day and Jess, my usual hair makeup girl, was not there,
and she literally called Mandy, the one who's doing makeup
the girls make up on set, was like, get me
on to wear a fucking hair down now, like it
looks weird because it's too short. And so Mandy's like, look,
I got you. I'm gonna have to do it. So
the first few days Mandy did it spot on, and
then we had a new girl.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
She was lovely, but did it.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Not quite as sleek as I would have liked to
little yeah, and a little too puffy in a bit
charsh volume. I liked it a bit like, but Mandy
smashed it. I will I Actually I turned around in
the mirror because I didn't want to look, because I
thought if I look, I'm not going to wear it down.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
And I must say, I was like, oh, my.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Hair cut is actually quite nice.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
But I did it.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
I grew some balls and I wore my hair down
on air like for four days.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
I know. I saw it on the one day and
I was like, wow, Mel, like she did it. I'm
so proud of hers new Mel. And then I saw
it the next day. Then I saw it the next day.
I couldn't believe it. It's a thing.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
I think it's going to be a thing.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Like I'm literally not telling you this because you're my friend.
But you looked so you always look good, but you
looked so goodmately like hot lesbian like hot lesbian, like
getting hot lesbian like, but it also had like an
air of maturity, like it looked like you'd kind of
had grown up a bit and grown into your role
as it's you weren't. You weren't giving like ex player
(09:32):
pretending to be broadcaster. It was giving like legitimate broadcaster
that has lots of experience than taking up space on
this desk with this haircut. Well, thank you. So I
actually feel confident.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I actually me and kind of going for a day
this week because the Innimals are in town for Thanksgiving
and I actually might write down that's how much like
I was like, Oh, I actually I actually could rock
my hair down. So it's it's this, Listen, there's a
lot of change in on my life, and this it's
a positive change. Yeah, I feel like it's just a
changing ear of for me.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
So I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Kira.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
I mean if you say that, I mean, holy smokes.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
I'm not one for false compliments.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
You actually got brought up in conversation last week. Me
and I were talking about it.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Oh no, we were just like, how the fuck are
you so fucking hot?
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Like all the time.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
I mean, as a friend, I'm not attracted to you,
as you know, I'm not attracted to you.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
If I do know, I think the last person on Earth.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Yeah, but I just have to confirm that because I'm
a lesbian but for me, and obviously Anna's not as
straight as an arrow. But and I think Chloe the
producer got stuck in there as well, and she was like, yeah,
she always looks amazing.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
I'm like, I know.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I'm like, there's never a photo that does that doesn't
work with Kira.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Thank you guys, this is so great for my self esteem.
ID like to thank the years of body image issues
that have led to this moment.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
We are just thriving in our mid thirties.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Well, actually it was funny. I was talking to Halle
about Instagram and so Halle and I were together at
the Formula one last weekend and we were talking about,
you know, the pressure to create content and want to
look cool around all this stuff, and it's you know,
that's a whole different thing. But she's like, yeah, man,
like it's just hard, like constantly feeling like you're kind
of judged for your looks. And I was thinking about
(11:19):
it and I was like, I literally signed up for
a competition that was purely about judging me for my
look and like, like my entire way that I think
about myself and my life whatever, like has some cornerstone
and that weird experience, so I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
But obviously there's much more substance to you than First
of all, you Fancy's got way better doing this podcast
because you've been around a brit for a long time.
So that's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah, I'm a little quick with it.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
You're a bit more witty, bit more dry, bit more sarcastic,
you lingo, Like.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Every time I say luck on the show, though, I'm.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Like, I know that's number three.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
You're swearing in the correct context now, and it's fabulous.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
So a star.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
It's just you're just thriving.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
I'm just getting better and better at life. You really are.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Do you know what I think about that sometimes? Like
I don't know, Yeah, Miss America, I don't know. I
do think about it quite.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Its weird anyway. Anyway, can you tell us about about
Sea Me and the tournament and Gino?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah, basically, Gino's fucking makes four million dollars.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Ever a year.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
It's okay, so it's a tour champion it's a women's
version of tour championship.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Yeah, Now I'm going to summarize the season for anybody
who has any interest in the LPGA, which they should
do because it's going to be live streaming on thank.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
If you're listening to the show, that you have some
small interest at least.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Okay, Okay, So top sixty players after Pelican, which is
the Anaker event, which was a couple of weeks ago. Anyway, Now,
this year has been quite weird because we haven't really
had a dominant player. Like last year we had Nelli
winning seven times and then you know, Gino kind of
won the race to see Me.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
But this year we've had twenty nine. We're twenty nine winners.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Our thirty one events or thirty two events, so we've
only had two people win twice. One was Gino and
one was you mashed her. Okay, you won the British
and Tournament in Asia. The thing is when you get
to see Me, the person who gets in sixtieth place
to qualify for that first place is four million dollars.
They technically could win the four million dollars because it's
(13:39):
just it's just a one torment. As long as you
get in see Me, you're in. Now everyone just plays
for the top prize, which is four million.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Dollars, but they don't do the staggered story. No, no, no, no,
everybody starts to Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
So Pajuri came in at sixtieth place, and she almost was.
She didn't amost win the thing, but she came second
in the SeeMe in this CEA tournament. Right, technically, if
she'd have beat Gino, right, she would have won the
Foreman Doors. She would have won technically seen me. Okay,
the race to see me, which is the season long
race to see me. Now, this is where I sugar
(14:10):
with it because she didn't play the best all year
Gino did, so Gino wouldn't have won her if she
didn't wine me.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
Does that make sense?
Speaker 2 (14:21):
So like, it doesn't really reward consistent play.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
So but this is the age long argument with the
FedEx Cup. And like the person that wins the FedEx
Cup could be the thirtieth player that gets in. But
then they like, are they tom and Addick?
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Tommy was not the best player, lash I love Tommy.
Tommy was not the best player consistently lash.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Year Scotty was Yeah, yeah, exactly so, so I before
the PGA Tour did that. They had two prizes, they
had the Player of the year person that got like
something separate, and then the winner of the FedEx Cup,
where it was like, if you got into that tournament,
you have every right to win it, just like everybody else.
So I kind of kind of like that, and I
(15:01):
feel like it's easy to understand for the fans. So
for the women, I think that there could be a
way to work in like, Okay, this person has won
the most points, therefore they are the best player. But
then also by virtue of how the top sixty have played,
they all get into this tournament and because you you
made in the top sixty, you have the right to
(15:21):
win those four million dollars and like have at it,
get after it. So I don't know, I kind of.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Like that should be two prizes, see me and then
the race to see me, Like they should be the
semen in the season long race to see me or something.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
So anyway, but Gina Krushtip she made four million dollars again,
so she had career earnings every three years has been
like seventeen million dollars.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
It's not bad.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Great.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
I wonder what she's doing with. Oh that's like Dallas, Yeah,
she lives in Dallas.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Yeah, lives in Dallas and her parents have never watched
the play golf outside Thailand or Asia.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Is that crazy?
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Yeah, isn't that crazy?
Speaker 1 (16:00):
If I? Like, I wonder if that's a you know,
some people don't want their parents.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
To Yeah, exactly, I don't know. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
I haven't got into detail with it, but.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Asked her about it. So why are they?
Speaker 3 (16:11):
Why are so? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:13):
She went to Disney last year when she won. So
I'm I mean, we're going to Disney.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
We're going to Disney. I mean, Disney is fucking expensive.
Though it is expensive, I'm dreading when Ky wants to go.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Literally, you need you need that four million dollars for Disney.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Yeah, that's what I went once with Carli's family just
for a day at Universal. And I honestly think it
r in my golf career because I German dramatic. It did, honestly,
may I barely made a court after that. Honestly, I
tell call it this. I'm like, something happened, the Disney curse,
the Disney curse, mate, And it was it was like
(16:48):
midst the summer and look, look, look I'm going to
defend Disney.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
You've got kids, you got to do it right, because
I'm going to try and delay.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
I'm going to try and delay it as much as
possible because.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
That is my I agree.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
I think I think you should delay it until he
can actually ride the rides that you're paying to be
there for and remember everything. Yes, I do not understand.
I'm so sorry anybody out there that's like a Disney
lifer and you take your baby in a stroller to
Disneyland or World, but I you and I don't understand
each other speak the same language because I just don't
get it. I don't understand how it's just so expensive
(17:21):
to put your baby on a troller and they're just
screaming and crying the whole time, sleeping.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
And it's hot. Yeah, and it's hot, it's it's humid
as shit in Orlando.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
It kind of smells funny.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I think it's just because everyone's sweating and gross and
sandwiches IQ. I went to get a sandwich rank and
it was like fifty bucks, like two sandwiches and two christs.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
So I was pissed off at that.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
So at this point, I'm like, right, I need some
alcoholic beverage to just get me through the expensive, well
hard to find too, very different, more difficult than you
thought when you think. And two I'm not Harry Potter fan.
I appreciate it, but never really a fan. I actually
have two stories about this. One. I queued up for
thirty minutes in this line for butter beer because I
(18:07):
presume this is.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Not Disney, this is now Harry Potter universe.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Yeah yeah, okay, same same difference, so I know it's different,
is making sure? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Yes, yes, clearly different universes.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Oh really? Okay?
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Well I cute up for half an hour for this
beer that I thought I was getting, and.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Some kid in front of me was I was like,
this kid's like a I'm like, this is.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Really Weirdly said to the kid, I'm like, hey, do
you have is your parent?
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Are you in line?
Speaker 2 (18:37):

Speaker 2 (18:39):
And he was like yeah, I'm in line. I was like,

This so this seven year old basically I had to
educate with me that it was a.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
Main concept of Harry Potter.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Yeah, was like, this is not this is sweet, Like
it's basically a soda, like a just an order drink.

been into that wizardry shit. I just that's not my thing.
I'm not into like fantasy stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Oh my god, mel this is a.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
Core thing that we no I know, I understand, I
respect it. I've like watched the films just on Christmas
and stuff. Well, this is the other thing here, because
I was in Harry Potter Land and actual adults were
wearing cloaks and waving around fucking fake ones everywhere. We

I'm talking about? That do you know the train I'm
talking about? Yeah, of course, Okay, the Hardwarts express.

Speaker 2 (19:42):
So I'm just chatting to my family, like my in
laws as you would, Okay, my brother in law and stuff. Well,
people presumed that I was just putting on everyone puts
on a British accent there because it's Harry Potter, and
they presumed that I was putting on an accent and.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
They're wow, yours yeah, Harry, Harry, And I was.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Like, I think I told someone to funk off because
I was just like at the end of my tether,
and Carlie was livid with me. She was like, well,
all these people are like, this is their dream and
You've just told this woman like to fuck off because
I just didn't have any patience.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
You want to have the real British experience.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
She was saying, I'm British and she's like, oh yeah,
or I'm from England as well.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
That like you're from London really, oh.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
God, Harry, and I just went you got I said
you need to fuck off? Like so that's when she'd
asked proper British, I hate it the rider call though
the Rides of Call. I give him that, but it's
I have.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Not my own Wanes. I own a I own a Awkwards,
a Griffin north Scarp. I mean, well, every kid growing
up wanted.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
To what a.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
I wanted to be cast as Hermione That's a movie,
wanted to be Emma Watson, and everybody wanted to get
their Hogwarts letter in the mail like mine was clearly lost. Well,
I am a witch.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
You actually would have been really good at playing hermionony, Hermione, hermony, Hermione.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
You can say you know her. It's like a British name.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Since I've had these Veneers do and I've got new
venairs everyone, they're a little bit bigger. I can't pronounce anything.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
I can't. I'm still getting used to them.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Kira names in gossip. You're not going to be for you.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
I did it and you a cray kester on the desk,
and I said, Majia and in Asia? I said, is
it going to be a major in Asia? And yeah,
And I'm really sorry. I can't pronounce its very well.
The minute literally live in a No, I can't it.
They're just they're literally the tineset bit bigger. It's only
my front.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Four them shaved down a little bit. I just can't
be asked.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
I'll just I'll deal with it anyway.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Sorry, carry on, So I literally can't say words anymore.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Carry on.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
So you would have been a great Hermione. Yeah, anyway,
we can. We can leave this. But so you you
started playing poorly after your trip to Disney.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
Oh yes, I made I missed like the last next
like four cuts in a row because I was so traumatized.
So yeah, that's my So basically I'm delaying Disney as
long as possible.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Yes, Okay, Kai one day, one day, buddy, maybe it'll
just be a Kai and Carly trip.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
And have you ever been from a flight from Orlando
to Manchester on that Virgin flight late at night? Oh?
Speaker 3 (22:34):
That is a tree.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
That's disgusting.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
That is a tree.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Okay, Yeah, how was f one?
Speaker 3 (22:41):
How is your weekends? It was so fun?
Speaker 1 (22:45):
So I got to go as a guest of Hilton
Grand Vacations. Hilton Grand Vacations is the title sponsor of
the LPGA Tournament of Champions event uh in the beginning
of the year. Every year I've played in that. It's
a celebrity pro am. So I've played in that a
bunch over the years and have made friends with them.
So they were very kind and invited me, and they
(23:06):
invited Halle. So Hallie and I, Halle and I have
been like hanging out a lot like you have been
hanging out, like we were together all the time. A
lot in Mexico is all the pod we're together in Vegas.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Yeah, I feel like you guys have have been to
toached the hip.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's actually funny. In Mexico, the two
of us who were having dinner on a Sunday night
at the bar at Nobu, and this guy that had
been at all the events was like he came up
to us and he goes, so, are you guys friends
outside of this or you just friendly this week? Because
you really seem like you're attached at the hip. We
were like, we're friends outside of this, Thank you, sir.
(23:45):
I think you're also trying to see if we were
like together.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
I'm nice station, but I was like, you just would
be a power couple though, right, yeah, oh god, you guys,
would you get invited a lot more than four?
Speaker 3 (23:58):
And I can guarantee you.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
That just friends, just friends. But it was really I
have thoughts. So Formula one seems to really take over
anywhere it goes. So anywhere you went in Vegas last weekend,
there was an activation or a car or a pop
(24:19):
up store or something that made it just feel like
anything and everything was about Formula one for Vegas that weekend.
And I kept on thinking, like why I understand now
more some of the stuff about Live having gone to
Formula one because It's clear that they were like trying
(24:40):
to recreate that less stops, more glamorous places, just more
of a vibe. And that's everything that Formula one is doing,
and even down to their shotgun start. But I don't
know that execution ever really came to fruition. And it's like,
for the PGA Tour, how can they or golf in general,
(25:01):
with any any professional golf, how can they make the
stops that they go to turn into these places They're
just like the whole city is alive with the fact
that the golf is there, the whole everybody knows it's
a part of everything that you're doing that weekend. It
like really feel the impact of the event on the city.
But like when the PGA Tour, No nothing against the Dallas,
but like when the PGA Tour goes to Dallas for
(25:23):
the Byron Nelson, Like does anybody care or know in
the greater area that, wow, the tours in town that
week Like now, so it just feels like it's so
it's so fucked, Yeah, where are the activations? Where is
that stuff?
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Well, I agree with you, and I've said this before,
I've spoken about this.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
I think the PGA tours.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Obviously they have the resources, the money, and and and
the marketing ability way more than the LPGA. But I've
said this, like, how are we going to make the
LPGA like an event? Like when it comes into like,
oh yeah, all Texas, Like everyone's like, holy shit, the
OPG and town the next week.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
We have to go.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
We have to go, and it has to be an event.
I can agree more because Formula one's weird to me, right,
Like my brother, one of my brothers is obsessed with
Formula one, and like my dad watched it a little bit,
like kind of men in my family watch it a
little bit. But it's become so popular. I think it's
from Drive to Survive, that documentary thing. But it's fucking weird,
(26:22):
isn't it.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
I think it is to get yeah, it is weird,
and to go in person you see them pe Yeah,
but it's like a celebrity.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
But it's Yeah, the driving is secondary to actually event
around it and the fact the fact that you can
be a part of the paddock club and go and
walk on the actual track and go.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
And see the actual cars and the drivers these drivers. Okay,
so golfers could never before the race. They're all doing
pre race interviews, every single one of them. Then they
make them get into a truck that rides around the
entire track like a parade, like a pageant. It's literally
a fucking pageant to wave at all the people so
(27:06):
that people can actually see them before they get into
the cars. Okay, they're about to go and drive two
hundred miles an hour bed and yeah, exactly, and they're
riding around in this Okay. Then they do the race.
Then immediately after the race, the winners do all this
crazy stuff, the champagne, the interviews. Then they make them
(27:27):
get into a pink Cadillac car made out of legos,
driven by terry crews all around the track. The top
three guys have to get into this pink lego Cadillac
and drive around and wave at the people while everything's miked.
And they're like, it's just it's like they know who
butters their bread. They understand that they are part of
(27:50):
a show that this is. You can't just show up,
drive and leave that. I'm sorry, that is not how
this works. This is entertainment people, So dance, monkey dance. Yes,
you are a part of a show, you say, why, President,
Like golf like there needs to be more access to
like if it's not a paddock club, it's a range club,
(28:10):
like you can literally be right there. Like the program,
the program has to be so blown out. It's not
like Eli Manning shows up like okay, cool, they do
one post about him as he plays around, Like there
needs to be camera crew on every single person. There
needs to be like massive tunnels that these people are
going through where they can like be with the fans.
Like it's just I was like, wow, like we're doing
(28:30):
one percent of this. Yeah, one percent of this, so
no wonder it's not as popular and huge and guys
driving around in circles is a bigger deal than seventy
two holes of golf.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
Yeah, I know, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
That's my that was my fee of the day. But
I mean, like as no, I agree, it's agree.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
It's like, I mean, it's just there's so much money
and Formula one though I think that's the thing is
but the PJA tools dey have that budget.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
Yeah, I know, I know, I know, I know carect
trust me.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I've been I've been barking up this tree on the
LPGA for years. I've been doing it for years.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
We just I don't know. It's a budget thing.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I don't know, it's not much thing. It's for the players.
Like I'm sorry, just isn't going to cut it.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
It's not I know, I agree with that.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
And the problem is because the independent contract is like
F one, okay, this is my f one is with McLaren.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
You're with Ferrari with you know what I mean, Mercedes, and.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
They own you and they make you do whatever you've
signed up for. That fair.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
I'm sorry, but fuck me.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
The reason you're playing for form millions old the check
this week is because like like we can't, like I'm sorry,
like you need to. I don't know how to word this,
but I've always said this. I'm like, you have to
give back, Like I know it's paying the ass doing
press complice. I know it's pain in the ass doing
like walking talks, but it's not.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
It's not. But it's like you're so lucky to do this,
Like no one's going to feel bad for you. You're
playing professional golf. You have to talk about now great
you are, like no crime you have but like gin
know you know she does, you know gregation she's great, Shelah,
but she was doing so much.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Yeah, I know, but this is what I think Craig's
got a vision of and like with the broadcast stuff,
like he wants to mix it up with the broadcast
stuff as well and get it a little bit less
like suit and tie is my understanding, and make it
a bit more showy. And I'm like, you also need
to get like musicians and ship like you know what
I mean, like during the weeks and add things like that.
And well, this is like it's an event, an event.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
So so two weeks ago, Kai Trump played in the
I know what you're going to say, plan event, Okay, yeah,
and you know, say what you will about there's a
there's a whole different conversation we could have about that.
But at the end of the day, she was there
for clicks and views and attention for the golf tournament
because how many how many she knew was to share
(30:49):
TikTok life but millions and millions. Yeah, So Beth Anne
Nichols wrote an article in Golf Week about how it
was great that she was there. The LPGA barely posted
about her posted at once, like, guys, I know, she's
(31:11):
barely paying it, paying attention to the like the person.
This is the post followed person in your field. She's
there for one reason and one reason only, and we're
not even taking advantage of that.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Come on, we spoke about that last week. Actually got
brought up in conversation. Couldn't agree more with you, Like
this is like, like you said, you can get into
the reason why she was there, but Krum is a
big name and she has a gazillion followers on Instagram
and TikTok.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Why are we not elevating the tool that is the
only reason she is there.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
She's not gonna win the Dolph Torment. She's not really
going to make the curt like she's not. That's not
why the event. That's fine, Like we elevate the event.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
Yeah, I know, I'm not.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I have no issue with that at all. I've always
not had an issue with things like that. Players get
like really upset by it, like oh that was like
I could have got that. I'm not.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Well you didn't, so.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Sorry it is show business and like yeah, to get
into your spot in there, like I'm sorry, the.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Better or had a million followers, so yeah, exactly, like
next time, exactly, No, I agree with you, I agree
with you.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
But yes, again, the LPGA get given these opportunities and
they missed the boat and it's really really frustrating.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
It's really frustrating.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Yeah, and you know, like the you know, I don't
want to say anything about she's a kid, like she's
a young girl, then that it has been doing a
great opportunity to decide to take it. So that's kind
of where I stand on if she should have been
there at all. But the fact that we can't even
use that cornally is a really frustrating thing.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
So sorry, can I say one more thing on that?
Speaker 2 (32:50):
So our demographic of people that watch golf, like majority
is is you know, the older generation or the very
very young generation like that, that middle generation, you know,
fifteen to thirty five. We don't really get a lot
of fans watching that. Now somebody like Kai Trump has
the ability to tap into that market as well cool
(33:11):
for those and make cool like my nephews only watched
golf because of Bryson on YouTube and you know, the
good good guys and you know the Internet Invitational.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Did you see any of that crazy stuff that the
barstool David dave Porte was.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
Someone was texting me about it. Did that guy like
not show up or something was that.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
Yeah, I think there's the guy Luke Kwan that overs
up to tea time or something, but I mean that
that took over the internet, golf internet for a week.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
It's just the way it's going now.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
So yeah, I couldn't agree more with you, could not
agree more with you.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
But anyway, Formula one was great. It was really fun.
How are we there for? I was there and Saturday
Andrew came with me and we went to cool parties
and you know, it was just everything is just feels
so elevated. And even the wags Formula one wags are
(34:14):
so I mean dressed to the nice, just so gorge
so fab and golf swags are great, but golf wags
have a different mandate in that they can't show up
in six inch heels and a Gucci outfit because they
got to walk a golf they're out there for eighteen
(34:34):
And there's also in golf, there's not like a specific
place that everybody knows is the chic place to sit
where there's a camera on you at all times. So
in tennis, you're in the player's box and you're doing
you're looking back and forth like this, and you have
your cool outfit on. You're not gonna sweat, you're just
sitting there in Formula one, it's the same thing. You're
(34:55):
in the paddock, you have the headphones on, there's a
camera on you the entire time you're with the tea,
Like it looks.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
Cool, blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
But the golf wags kind of don't have that opportunity
because like, were you gonna sit inside the clubhouse where
they don't have cameras or or there's not really it's
not really realistic for us to have a camera fon, Like,
no one is following Meredith Scheffler the whole whole time
while she's watching Scottie. Half the reason is that she's
not out there the whole time. She's like with the
baby or she's doing something else. N eighteen holes is
like takes forever, so long, it's like what she gonna do?
Speaker 5 (35:24):
We like walk around for six hours with an around
everybody just go for the last too.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
There is no no mayre. I mean like they show
them as they're about to win, but that you know,
that's very a fleeting moment. So from the wag culture
making sport cool. Because there's this girl named Morgan Riddle,
who is like the tennis wag and she's become super
famous from her social media around her fashion of going
(35:50):
to stuff like we just don't There's some golf wags
that try to do that, but they just can't do
it on the same level because of the logistics of
the event. So even from that like we got it,
like how can we make it so chic and so
bab that that's what the girlies want to get into
that they want they want to go and sit at
the Byron Nelson in the cool area. I'm sorry to
(36:12):
Byron Nelson. I don't mean to pick on you, sir.
You're rest.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
It was just an example. It was just an example.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
Offended. I'm sorry. Sorry, Well, I just feel bad that
I keep shitting on this one tournament. It's just I
don't know why I sold we want I think funny.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Yeah good, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Everyone's me. I mean,
I enjoyed watching Josh five.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
But it's just it's just I mean, guys just get
massive bonus for don't they.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
Yeah, I mean, and.
Speaker 5 (36:52):
That's just a inherent to the structure of their league
where the drive is tiny.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
That's that's ripped, but they're tiny. They're like jockeys.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
There are Alex Alban, who drives for Williams. He is
dating Lily Lily He yeah here, yeah, Lily here yeah,
and so Hallie and I decided that he's just Lily's boyfriend,
so he would do something, would go Lily's boyfriend. Yes,
(37:26):
she was, she looks so she's she looked so hot.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
Yeah, she's done him.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Yeah, he was at like Evian or something. He's been
to a couple of events where she's been playing.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Is she still playing?
Speaker 3 (37:39):
She's played at Yeah, yeah, yep, yep, good.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
You.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
Your Christmas deck's up?
Speaker 1 (37:50):
No, Helene, I had had a deep discussion about this
because it's it's a little rude to Thanksgiving. And I
know that for you because you're not, okay, well rude Thanksgiving.
The whole reason Thanksgiving exists is because the Pilgrims left
(38:11):
your country to come here, and I had to give
thanks for the things that they were able to. I mean,
obviously there's a lot more to this story, but thank
you people.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
I actually love a Thanksgiving. I love a Thanksgiving to
your turkey doo.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Yeah, it's that your favorite Thanksgiving food? Do you have
a favorite Thanksgiving food.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
Okay, listen, So I do like Thanksgiving I do.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
We do a little ticket in the morning, and then
out here in Jacksonville there's a thing called Peacegiving Piece
Bar is a diveboard dive bar down in Neptune Beach.
I don't know if you've ever been. It's over one
hundred years old. It's amazing. It is amazing. It's proper divy.
It's been ungraded now, like there's actually doors on the
toilets and stuff.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
So that's good.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
Yeah, so it's nicer now nice.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
I tend to go.
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Yeah, I just enjoy a bit of peak sometimes when
I'm out with the boys and we have one too many,
we end up in there anyway. But after the Turkey Trot,
what they do is they bring all the it's like
down like Neptune Beach. There's a bunch of bars and
restaurants and coffee shops, and they kind of bring all
the bars out onto the street after.
Speaker 3 (39:19):
The Turkey chart. So there's thousands of people. They shut
down the whole street, and that's where the Turkey chart finishes.
Speaker 2 (39:25):
Yeah, and then it shuts down in one so like
people are just kind of having a few drinks and
then they go back and have Thanksgiving.
Speaker 3 (39:30):
So I'm on Turkey duty.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Now.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
There's a few things on the menu which I find
quite strange. Love of green bean castrole, love that lover
stuff in. It's not in English stuff in, but whatever
you guys do a good stuff in.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Okay, I'm out on super ready stuffing.
Speaker 2 (39:52):
I like it.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
Light bread sasage, yes, okay, I agree with you.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
See we don't put bread in our stuffing.
Speaker 1 (39:59):
Okay, So I don't like a lot of bread and
stuff Yeah.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
My mother in law doesn't do a lot of bread
actually and stuffing, so that's probably I like it. Sweet
potato thing great, But what's with the fucking marshmallows in it?
Speaker 1 (40:10):
Okay? No, that's not for me. I'm strictly against marshmallows
and savory food.
Speaker 3 (40:16):
Okay, So okay, that's.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
A very strange. No, Well, this is like a Midwestern yes,
a very Midwestern.
Speaker 3 (40:26):
But I think mashed potato. Love mash potatoes.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
Well, the mash cranberry sauce. Love a cranberry sauce.
Speaker 3 (40:35):
What else is that mash?
Speaker 1 (40:37):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (40:37):
I don't know what else that that's pretty much your
gravy is fucking weird, Like I want to be on
gravy duty, but Carli would let me.
Speaker 3 (40:44):
I think your gravy is quite odd.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
What's our gravy?
Speaker 2 (40:47):
It's just a weird color to me, Like it should
be darker than that. It should be a bisto gravy.
What a bisto gravy is like a British gravy.
Speaker 1 (40:57):
Okay, I don't know what that word means, but.
Speaker 3 (40:58):
Okay, I mean corn. We have corn.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
Maybe that's because we're Carlie's from Nebraska. There's lots of
corn in the household.
Speaker 1 (41:06):
We do like a carrot, carrot and whipped cot or
something something that's like a honey and mint.
Speaker 2 (41:17):
Oh that sounds really good, delicious. Okay, But listen, I
love a Thanksgiving, I really do. And I think it's
just nice that I get the family together, isn't it.
But we have put the tree up. We put the
tree up this.
Speaker 1 (41:30):
Morning, so Andrew and I will put our tree up
on this coming Sunday. So we have so we're going
to we have Thanksgiving on Wednesday with my family, okay,
and then Thanksgiving on Thursday with Andrew's family. Nice, and
then Friday, Saturday we'll hang it's the various families Sunday
(41:53):
will come home, put a birch tree. Nice. But on
Sunday this is a new Thanksgiving tree. Well, what's been
doing it? This will be our fourth year doing it.
There's this yoga instructor named Rusty Wells that once a
year he comes to San Francisco and he teaches the
yoga flow on Ocean. I think I'm probably need to
tell us this. Yes, okay, very cool. So Rusty is
(42:16):
back and he's teaching on Sunday and it's the most
woo wu but fun with good modern music. But then
they chant and there's drums and the whole thing and
it's like the craziest workout of your life. So we're
gonna do that on Sunday and then come home and
put up our tree.
Speaker 3 (42:33):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
That sounds good. I know that, yea's nice. I like Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2 (42:41):
I have realized as well putting up Christmas decorations or
just having decorations on in general, because.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
I'm a bit.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
What do you call it, a type type? There we go,
I'm a bit hype about this stuff. So I kind
of like things a certain way. I like my house
look a certain way of Christmas. Having a toddler now
like last year's fine because he didn't real to give
a ship having a toddler when you're doing that. We've
already lost three ball balls this morning. They smashed on
the floor. And he's obsessed, obsessed with the Christmas lights,
(43:10):
so keeps telling them on and off and they stopped
working a minute ago. And he's obsessed with the decorations,
so he keeps like, broke one of the Santa ones

Christmas of my life. Merry Christmas, but whatever, you just
will miss these memories, I'm sure. But Carlie was getting
a bit impatient with him this morning.
Speaker 1 (43:42):
She's like, I stopped throwing the ball balls on the floor. So, yeah,
I love Christmas. Christmas is a season, not holiday. Yeah,
I mean, I love I just I don't want to
start it too early because I want to make sure
you appreciate every single moment. Anyway, moving on, Oh my god,

not the rolling of the eyes.
Speaker 3 (44:05):
Moving on.

to savor everything. And if it's you have too much
of a good thing, then you you become is Christmas.
In it is Christmas.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
You meant to have too much of it? Get it up,
We'll get it up.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
Okay, Okay, do we want to say anything about the
PGA Tour coming to a close? Not really? Okay, Well,
just don't say everyone everyone got hot chechen. Good.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
Summarize it. There used to be one hundred and twenty
five cards. Now the PJ Tour got it down to
one hundred cards. So now the poor bustards who were
from one O one to one twenty five you did
have a job last year and now don't, so it's
all fucked.
Speaker 3 (44:48):
There we go, so the poor.
Speaker 1 (44:49):
Grabs see me with alamack.
Speaker 2 (44:51):

Speaker 3 (45:09):

Speaker 2 (45:20):
This week we got put up in the rich Carton
on site Tibron lovely love a rizzy.
Speaker 3 (45:28):
Kids menus.
Speaker 2 (45:29):
I understand it's a rich Carton, right, I understand that
things are just gonna. The prices are through the roof,
are just not you know what I mean? A banana
is five bucks, like.
Speaker 1 (45:37):

Speaker 2 (45:40):

and forty six bucks.
Speaker 1 (46:22):
Really?
Speaker 2 (46:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (46:24):
You know why I am attuned to high prices right now?
Because I was just in Vegas this weekend and Andrew
and I got two breakfast sandwiches, two cappuccinos. It was
fifty three dollars.
Speaker 3 (46:33):
No, you're joking.
Speaker 1 (46:34):
No, that is.
Speaker 3 (46:37):
How the fuck I mean. That is just daylight robbery.
Speaker 1 (46:39):
So yeah, that's my that's my listen.
Speaker 2 (46:42):
If you're if you give me a gorgeous steak, I
will pay whatever, right, take my money, take my money.
But it's a kid's fucking mac and cheese. Like it's
not even the cheese. It's just kids mac. It's just butter,
just butter. And it came in three seconds. So yeah,
that's all I have to say to that. That's my
shush of the week. Is just so HIPing at these
big prices. Just give me a mac and cheese for
(47:04):
five bucks, like it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (47:06):
I agree with that. That's a great shush, Thank you, monsieur.
Well my shush is the Vegas Strip people.
Speaker 2 (47:17):
Yes, I'm going to say next week, so I'm going
to have a Vegas I'm doing a golf day for
AWS on the first summer cool.
Speaker 1 (47:26):
So Andrew and I took an uber to the wind
from the Hilton gram Vacations property a Lara because we
wanted to go to the Earth Cafe there. It's a
they have them in La It's a great breakfast spot.
So if anyone's ever in Vegas and wants something, oh yeah,
oh yes, you should go to Earth. But there were
(47:46):
we didn't actually get to go to Earth because it
was a five thousand people line. So then we ended
up at that coffee shop where we got two breakfast
sanwiches and two capchinas for three dollars. But Earth would
have been expected expensive too, but whatever, it's fine. So
we had our fifty three dollars breakfast, and then we
decided let's walk back to the Alara because I don't know,
(48:07):
I just have the I walk everywhere in San Francisco.
I when I lived in New York. I like to
walk in a city.
Speaker 3 (48:13):
It just is healthy.
Speaker 1 (48:15):
And I was like, let's yeah, let's walk it off.
It'll be great. Oh my god. It was scary. It
was fairal There were these women that had no tops
on but they had tape on their nips and they
were running around and hitting people with whips.
Speaker 3 (48:35):
Are you sure you okay?
Speaker 1 (48:37):
It was scary. So at that point I was like, Andrew,
we need to go into the small and tide. I
was so scared.
Speaker 3 (48:43):
I mean, but it was it was.
Speaker 1 (48:45):
It was also just like the very wild in Vegas dude,
like like not like funny wild, I mean very blatant,
like you know, all supportive of s workers and you
got to do, you got to do. But there was
like a really dark side to that with like women
passing out cards of faces and it just looked very
(49:07):
untoured and kind of not great. So yeah, like that
was I was like, I don't want to see this.
This is weird. You can get I didn't know. I
ran into the mall to hide. I was going to say, yeah,
but are going to get story there to be fair. Yeah,
I'm okay, I'm good, We're good. We're good on that experience,
(49:28):
just you know you're walking through a certain part. You know,
it's like the cigarette smoke or like people just like
really drinking a lot at nine in the morning. Like
there's some like like the Vegas can be I always
say Vegas can be amazing if you just squint your
eyes a little bit and it's like look at all
this other stuff, Like there's so much about it that
(49:48):
reminds you of the worst of people and people's base
instincts of just being a piece of ship and that
removes the glamour and the magic of what Vegas can be,
which is an amazing dinner, an amazing show, an amazing
night at the club, a fabulous hotel, like all those
parts of Vegas. I love, like I love a Vegas weekend.
It's so fun. But then you're also you just got
(50:11):
to make sure you swing your eyes a little bit
so you don't see that the really as you would say, rank.
Speaker 3 (50:17):
Feralness.
Speaker 1 (50:18):
Yeah, just just don't walk down the Las Vegas Strip.
It's just not It is a strange takeaway, the false
reality you've built in your mind of yeah places, it.
Speaker 2 (50:32):
Is such a strange place for I can agree with this,
two completely different sides of the spectrum, isn't there. There's
like the amazing restaurants, amazing clubs, like the amazing DJs
and like you did, she feel like you're in a
fantasy land and like the sphere and things like that,
and then you're absolutely so sick yeh, feralness of the
creatures that are out there, which is really sad to see.
Speaker 1 (50:53):
Michelle lives in Vegas and every time I've gone to
visit her, like it's an amazing time. Lives beautiful, beautiful
neighborhoods and amazing golf courses and fantastic restaurants like that.
Speaker 3 (51:04):
People are living there.
Speaker 1 (51:05):
Yeah, I mean it's very convenient airport. It could use
better food and all that, but convenient.
Speaker 2 (51:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (51:13):
Yeah, I actually don't mind Vegas Airport.
Speaker 1 (51:15):
No, everything, there's just this part of it. And you're like,
oh god, so.
Speaker 2 (51:18):
Yeah that's my show. Well yeah, I nice shush, nice shush. Well,
I can't wait for my shush from Vegas when I go, Oh, I.
Speaker 1 (51:29):
Can't wait for your stories.
Speaker 2 (51:30):
Well, I'm actually very well behaved with that trip because
I kind of I'm in and out because it's just Thanksgiving.

So thank you very much everybody, and I'm now back.
So unfortunately you have to listen to me again.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
You were very missed. We got lots of messages of like,
when Mel's back, can you guys talk about this? Blah
blah blah, let's go. But yeah, you know, it was
fun to get to chat with our friends and have
those conversations, but obviously it was under not nice circumstances.
And you know, I love you, and yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Yeah, and thank you ever so much for everyone who's
reached out for Obviously, my dad's passing, so it's been
a rough couple of weeks. Yeah, I'm not going to
talk about it, but I just want to say thank you.
It's been very appreciative.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Yeah. Thanks.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Yeah, we're gonna keep it like this would be a
nice yeah distraction, and you got to kind of get
back to a normal last week you Yeah, worked for
the first time. I did.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
I did.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
I worked at Seeming last week with the Myth, the Man,
the Legend that is Brendle Chamberlee and the posh BESI
which is Anna Jackson.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
So the career was back together, Yeah, as we.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
I love working with them too. Obviously everyone. I don't
know if people know. Brandon has been a bit of
a mentor to me, so he's a good guy to
learn from. Obviously been there twenty plus years, kind of
took me onto his wing a little bit. And then
obviously I've known Anna for over a decade, so we
just reminisced on the good old British days in the
nineties and early two thousands, and we just drive Brandle
(02:08):
absolutely nuts all weeks. So it was good to get
back in the rhythm of things. I bought Carli and
Kai out, which was a lot, not not that it's
just you know what, it's like, you're way more busy
than you think you are. And Carlie Blesser stepped up
to the plate and basically just looks after Kai's solo
parenting and then whenever I could, I would meet with them.
(02:29):
But yeah, it was nice to have the family there.
Like it was just I just wanted to Cai around me.
I haven't seen him for two or three weeks just
with everything that's been going on.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
I've had to go back to England a couple of times, so.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
I wanted him around and it was just it was
nice to get back in the rhythm of working again.
You know how it is, you have a couple of
weeks off, you want to get back into a bit
of and everything.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
That's gone on, I wanted a bit of normality and
it was fun.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
End of the year lashed event on the LPGA, Big deal,
big deal, big deals of money, lots of money and
a new announcement. Craig ca So the Commissioner made an
announcement about new TV deal which is very exciting, very exciting,
very exciting.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
So every round in the LPGA will now be streamed live.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
We're going to have track man, a lot more technology,
so basically a lot more visibility. So he's being the
boss now for what the Commission for just over one
hundred days and he's getting shit done. So he's deferent,
his moneywy his mouth is and big thanks to FM
as well Global they've been a huge investment in that.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
So it's going to be a game changer, I think.
I think it's going to be.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Hopefully it's the first step of many into into really
making the LPGA more visible.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
So when Michelle was on last week two weeks ago,
I asked her very specifically, what are we doing, what
do you want to see from the new commission and
she talked about this exactly, and then the next week
there was the announcement. So we just would like to
say that here and quiet, please, we manifest things that
come to ruition and make things happen. We are the
(03:58):
change agents in the world and if you would like
something change, just send us a DM. We'll work on
you for you. We got you, we got you. You know.
Obviously we work with Golf Channel, so we're really excited
to see Golf Channel getting in there and putting their
money where their mouths are and really investing into the
women's game and seeing it not as a charity, not
(04:21):
as like a nice to do, but like we need
to do this for our bottom line because this is
where the game is going. So it'll be great, it'll
be really exciting one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
I can agree more with you, and I think for
me as well, the prize money has exponentially risen over
the last five years six years. The prize money for
me is not the issue at all. I feel like
we're actually there or very close to where we need
to be, and I think that that's huge. People like
you know, not to get into the details of it,
but you know Terry Duffy who runs Seeing Me, who
is an unbelievable guy, by the way, like gives so
(04:53):
much to like since Jude, like the kids that are sick,
like their parents don't have to pay for any health
like care. We met a couple of the kids like
He's just a really really unbelievable guy to be honest
with you, But someone like him who really stepped up
to the plate. A few years ago at Seeing Me
made the prize money, you know, four million, which was huge,
and then I think it was seven, and then ten
and now eleven. Had to get the other tournaments up
(05:15):
to that level, like KPMG then did it anyway, long
story shot. I do feel from a prize money perspective,
I feel like we're.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Almost there.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Now. We just need to get the visibility and make
these athletes on our tour kind of the celebs and
the stars that they absolutely should be because then, and
it is this old school way of me thinking, but
like it's all for the little girls and the little boys,
and you know, I want more women to get into golf,
and the more visibility of that on our TVs and
(05:45):
in the marketing industry, it's only going to help.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
So it's a good thing here. It's a great thing.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
It's a great thing, and.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Everybody wins, so we shall see. But he creates a
good lad and he's done a great job so fast.
It's not an easy job, and he's he's kind of
already doing things, so it's exciting.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
It's exciting.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I'm sure he'll be happy to know that you said
he's a good lad.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
I told him that.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Actually, I've got a couple of good chats with Craig.
He came on the desk yesterday or on Sunday. Sorry,
he's so young, he's like thirty nine.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Well, he's definitely cooling with it because he told Michelle
that he listened to her part episode. So oh did he?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
So?
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Hi, Hi, Craig, Craig, listen, I love you, love you,
Craig love You're doing great, speedy head, you know. And
I was looking at him the other day and I
was just chatting to him and how you're thirty eight, Yes,
older than you?
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yes together. I know. This is what I'm saying. I've
never felt so underachieved in my life ever.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I was just looking at him, full face of makeup,
hair down, uncomfortable as fuck.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
What about your hair? Yes, thank you? Everything else can
go to the side.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Yeah, this is not import and this is a.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Pot Well your hair looked so good.
Speaker 2 (07:04):

moment now. Okay, Now to the real issue and the
real topics of conversation.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Yes, okay, so I wore.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
It up, which I normally do. But obviously I've had
it cut to that. I've told you this, but I
had it like six months ago.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
This.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
We had this whole conversation about me wearing my hair
down because I want to be a cool lesbian mum, right,
I don't want to be like like top burn. I
love a top burn, not against top burn, but it's
very like twenty ten lesbian. And I want to be
a bit more modern, bit more sexy.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
It's a millennial lesbian for sure.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah, and I want to be a bit more trendy lesbian. Mum.
You know, I just if I'm going to start doing
school runs soon, like I just you know.

I had my haircut. Shout out to mal In mal
Rooney in Jacksonville, Ivy salon. She's awesome. I'm actually devastated.
I'm not going to be able to have her and
I'm in oh color. You know, it's like here a
devastad Anyway, Yeah, so I had to have the first
(08:11):
day and Jess, my usual hair makeup girl, was not there,
and she literally called Mandy, the one who's doing makeup
the girls make up on set, was like, get me
on to wear a fucking hair down now, like it
looks weird because it's too short. And so Mandy's like, look,
I got you. I'm gonna have to do it. So
the first few days Mandy did it spot on, and
then we had a new girl.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
She was lovely, but did it.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Not quite as sleek as I would have liked to
little yeah, and a little too puffy in a bit
charsh volume. I liked it a bit like, but Mandy
smashed it. I will I Actually I turned around in
the mirror because I didn't want to look, because I
thought if I look, I'm not going to wear it down.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
And I must say, I was like, oh, my.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Hair cut is actually quite nice.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
But I did it.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
I grew some balls and I wore my hair down
on air like for four days.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
I know. I saw it on the one day and
I was like, wow, Mel, like she did it. I'm
so proud of hers new Mel. And then I saw
it the next day. Then I saw it the next day.
I couldn't believe it. It's a thing.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
I think it's going to be a thing.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Like I'm literally not telling you this because you're my friend.
But you looked so you always look good, but you
looked so goodmately like hot lesbian like hot lesbian, like
getting hot lesbian like, but it also had like an
air of maturity, like it looked like you'd kind of
had grown up a bit and grown into your role
as it's you weren't. You weren't giving like ex player
(09:32):
pretending to be broadcaster. It was giving like legitimate broadcaster
that has lots of experience than taking up space on
this desk with this haircut. Well, thank you. So I
actually feel confident.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I actually me and kind of going for a day
this week because the Innimals are in town for Thanksgiving
and I actually might write down that's how much like
I was like, Oh, I actually I actually could rock

Speaker 1 (10:26):
If I do know, I think the last person on Earth.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Yeah, but I just have to confirm that because I'm
a lesbian but for me, and obviously Anna's not as
straight as an arrow. But and I think Chloe the
producer got stuck in there as well, and she was like, yeah,
she always looks amazing.

We are just thriving in our mid thirties.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Well, actually it was funny. I was talking to Halle
about Instagram and so Halle and I were together at
the Formula one last weekend and we were talking about,
you know, the pressure to create content and want to
look cool around all this stuff, and it's you know,
that's a whole different thing. But she's like, yeah, man,
like it's just hard, like constantly feeling like you're kind
of judged for your looks. And I was thinking about
(11:19):
it and I was like, I literally signed up for
a competition that was purely about judging me for my
look and like, like my entire way that I think
about myself and my life whatever, like has some cornerstone
and that weird experience, so I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
But obviously there's much more substance to you than First
of all, you Fancy's got way better doing this podcast
because you've been around a brit for a long time.
So that's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah, I'm a little quick with it.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
You're a bit more witty, bit more dry, bit more sarcastic,
you lingo, Like.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Every time I say luck on the show, though, I'm.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Like, I know that's number three.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
You're swearing in the correct context now, and it's fabulous.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
So a star.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
It's just you're just thriving.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
I'm just getting better and better at life. You really are.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Do you know what I think about that sometimes? Like
I don't know, Yeah, Miss America, I don't know. I
do think about it quite.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Its weird anyway. Anyway, can you tell us about about
Sea Me and the tournament and Gino?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah, basically, Gino's fucking makes four million dollars.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Ever a year.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
It's okay, so it's a tour champion it's a women's
version of tour championship.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Yeah, Now I'm going to summarize the season for anybody
who has any interest in the LPGA, which they should
do because it's going to be live streaming on thank.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
If you're listening to the show, that you have some
small interest at least.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Okay, Okay, So top sixty players after Pelican, which is
the Anaker event, which was a couple of weeks ago. Anyway, Now,
this year has been quite weird because we haven't really
had a dominant player. Like last year we had Nelli
winning seven times and then you know, Gino kind of
won the race to see Me.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
But this year we've had twenty nine. We're twenty nine winners.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Our thirty one events or thirty two events, so we've
only had two people win twice. One was Gino and
one was you mashed her. Okay, you won the British
and Tournament in Asia. The thing is when you get
to see Me, the person who gets in sixtieth place
to qualify for that first place is four million dollars.
They technically could win the four million dollars because it's
(13:39):
just it's just a one torment. As long as you
get in see Me, you're in. Now everyone just plays
for the top prize, which is four million.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Dollars, but they don't do the staggered story. No, no, no, no,
everybody starts to Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
So Pajuri came in at sixtieth place, and she almost was.
She didn't amost win the thing, but she came second
in the SeeMe in this CEA tournament. Right, technically, if
she'd have beat Gino, right, she would have won the
Foreman Doors. She would have won technically seen me. Okay,
the race to see me, which is the season long
race to see me. Now, this is where I sugar
(14:10):
with it because she didn't play the best all year
Gino did, so Gino wouldn't have won her if she
didn't wine me.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
Does that make sense?
Speaker 2 (14:21):
So like, it doesn't really reward consistent play.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
So but this is the age long argument with the
FedEx Cup. And like the person that wins the FedEx
Cup could be the thirtieth player that gets in. But
then they like, are they tom and Addick?
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Tommy was not the best player, lash I love Tommy.
Tommy was not the best player consistently lash.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Year Scotty was Yeah, yeah, exactly so, so I before
the PGA Tour did that. They had two prizes, they
had the Player of the year person that got like
something separate, and then the winner of the FedEx Cup,
where it was like, if you got into that tournament,
you have every right to win it, just like everybody else.
So I kind of kind of like that, and I
(15:01):
feel like it's easy to understand for the fans. So
for the women, I think that there could be a
way to work in like, Okay, this person has won
the most points, therefore they are the best player. But
then also by virtue of how the top sixty have played,
they all get into this tournament and because you you
made in the top sixty, you have the right to
(15:21):
win those four million dollars and like have at it,
get after it. So I don't know, I kind of.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Like that should be two prizes, see me and then
the race to see me, Like they should be the
semen in the season long race to see me or something.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
So anyway, but Gina Krushtip she made four million dollars again,
so she had career earnings every three years has been
like seventeen million dollars.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
It's not bad.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Great.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
I wonder what she's doing with. Oh that's like Dallas, Yeah,
she lives in Dallas.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Yeah, lives in Dallas and her parents have never watched
the play golf outside Thailand or Asia.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Is that crazy?
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Yeah, isn't that crazy?
Speaker 1 (16:00):
If I? Like, I wonder if that's a you know,
some people don't want their parents.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
To Yeah, exactly, I don't know. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
I haven't got into detail with it, but.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Asked her about it. So why are they?
Speaker 3 (16:11):
Why are so? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:13):
She went to Disney last year when she won. So
I'm I mean, we're going to Disney.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
We're going to Disney. I mean, Disney is fucking expensive.
Though it is expensive, I'm dreading when Ky wants to go.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Literally, you need you need that four million dollars for Disney.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Yeah, that's what I went once with Carli's family just
for a day at Universal. And I honestly think it
r in my golf career because I German dramatic. It did, honestly,
may I barely made a court after that. Honestly, I
tell call it this. I'm like, something happened, the Disney curse,
the Disney curse, mate, And it was it was like
(16:48):
midst the summer and look, look, look I'm going to
defend Disney.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
You've got kids, you got to do it right, because
I'm going to try and delay.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
I'm going to try and delay it as much as
possible because.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
That is my I agree.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
I think I think you should delay it until he
can actually ride the rides that you're paying to be
there for and remember everything. Yes, I do not understand.
I'm so sorry anybody out there that's like a Disney
lifer and you take your baby in a stroller to
Disneyland or World, but I you and I don't understand
each other speak the same language because I just don't
get it. I don't understand how it's just so expensive
(17:21):
to put your baby on a troller and they're just
screaming and crying the whole time, sleeping.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
And it's hot. Yeah, and it's hot, it's it's humid
as shit in Orlando.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
It kind of smells funny.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I think it's just because everyone's sweating and gross and
sandwiches IQ. I went to get a sandwich rank and
it was like fifty bucks, like two sandwiches and two christs.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
So I was pissed off at that.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
So at this point, I'm like, right, I need some
alcoholic beverage to just get me through the expensive, well
hard to find too, very different, more difficult than you
thought when you think. And two I'm not Harry Potter fan.
I appreciate it, but never really a fan. I actually
have two stories about this. One. I queued up for
thirty minutes in this line for butter beer because I
(18:07):
presume this is.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Not Disney, this is now Harry Potter universe.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Yeah yeah, okay, same same difference, so I know it's different,
is making sure? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Yes, yes, clearly different universes.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Oh really? Okay?
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Well I cute up for half an hour for this
beer that I thought I was getting, and.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Some kid in front of me was I was like,
this kid's like a I'm like, this is.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Really Weirdly said to the kid, I'm like, hey, do
you have is your parent?
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Are you in line?
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Like?
Speaker 3 (18:37):
I was like, oh, do you want to move up?
Like are you in line?
Speaker 2 (18:39):
And he was like yeah, I'm in line. I was like,
you know, this is beer and he's like, yes, but beer.
And I was like what and he was like butter beer.
This so this seven year old basically I had to
educate with me that it was a.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
Main concept of Harry Potter.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Yeah, was like, this is not this is sweet, Like
it's basically a soda, like a just an order drink.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Yeah, I didn't know that.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
It's like a buttersc yes soda, Drake. How are you
British and you're not a fan of Harry Potter.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
And I just never really got into it. I've never
been into that wizardry shit. I just that's not my thing.
I'm not into like fantasy stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Oh my god, mel this is a.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
Core thing that we no I know, I understand, I
respect it. I've like watched the films just on Christmas
and stuff. Well, this is the other thing here, because
I was in Harry Potter Land and actual adults were
wearing cloaks and waving around fucking fake ones everywhere. We
had to get this like train that you know what
(19:36):
I'm talking about? That do you know the train I'm
talking about? Yeah, of course, Okay, the Hardwarts express.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Yes, Okay.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
So I'm just chatting to my family, like my in
laws as you would, Okay, my brother in law and stuff. Well,
people presumed that I was just putting on everyone puts
on a British accent there because it's Harry Potter, and
they presumed that I was putting on an accent and.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
They're wow, yours yeah, Harry, Harry, And I was.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Like, I think I told someone to funk off because
I was just like at the end of my tether,
and Carlie was livid with me. She was like, well,
all these people are like, this is their dream and
You've just told this woman like to fuck off because
I just didn't have any patience.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
You want to have the real British experience.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
She was saying, I'm British and she's like, oh yeah,
or I'm from England as well.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
That like you're from London really, oh.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
God, Harry, and I just went you got I said
you need to fuck off? Like so that's when she'd
asked proper British, I hate it the rider call though
the Rides of Call. I give him that, but it's
I have.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Not my own Wanes. I own a I own a Awkwards,
a Griffin north Scarp. I mean, well, every kid growing
up wanted.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
To what a.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
I wanted to be cast as Hermione That's a movie,
wanted to be Emma Watson, and everybody wanted to get
their Hogwarts letter in the mail like mine was clearly lost. Well,
I am a witch.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
You actually would have been really good at playing hermionony, Hermione, hermony, Hermione.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
You can say you know her. It's like a British name.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Since I've had these Veneers do and I've got new
venairs everyone, they're a little bit bigger. I can't pronounce anything.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
I can't. I'm still getting used to them.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Kira names in gossip. You're not going to be for you.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
I did it and you a cray kester on the desk,
and I said, Majia and in Asia? I said, is
it going to be a major in Asia? And yeah,
And I'm really sorry. I can't pronounce its very well.
The minute literally live in a No, I can't it.
They're just they're literally the tineset bit bigger. It's only
my front.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Four them shaved down a little bit. I just can't
be asked.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
I'll just I'll deal with it anyway.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Sorry, carry on, So I literally can't say words anymore.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Carry on.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
So you would have been a great Hermione. Yeah, anyway,
we can. We can leave this. But so you you
started playing poorly after your trip to Disney.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
Oh yes, I made I missed like the last next
like four cuts in a row because I was so traumatized.
So yeah, that's my So basically I'm delaying Disney as
long as possible.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Yes, Okay, Kai one day, one day, buddy, maybe it'll
just be a Kai and Carly trip.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
And have you ever been from a flight from Orlando
to Manchester on that Virgin flight late at night? Oh?
Speaker 3 (22:34):
That is a tree.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
That's disgusting.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
That is a tree.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Okay, Yeah, how was f one?
Speaker 3 (22:41):
How is your weekends? It was so fun?
Speaker 1 (22:45):
So I got to go as a guest of Hilton
Grand Vacations. Hilton Grand Vacations is the title sponsor of
the LPGA Tournament of Champions event uh in the beginning
of the year. Every year I've played in that. It's
a celebrity pro am. So I've played in that a
bunch over the years and have made friends with them.
So they were very kind and invited me, and they
(23:06):
invited Halle. So Hallie and I, Halle and I have
been like hanging out a lot like you have been
hanging out, like we were together all the time. A
lot in Mexico is all the pod we're together in Vegas.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Yeah, I feel like you guys have have been to
toached the hip.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's actually funny. In Mexico, the two
of us who were having dinner on a Sunday night
at the bar at Nobu, and this guy that had
been at all the events was like he came up
to us and he goes, so, are you guys friends
outside of this or you just friendly this week? Because
you really seem like you're attached at the hip. We
were like, we're friends outside of this, Thank you, sir.
(23:45):
I think you're also trying to see if we were
like together.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
I'm nice station, but I was like, you just would
be a power couple though, right, yeah, oh god, you guys,
would you get invited a lot more than four?
Speaker 3 (23:58):
And I can guarantee you.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
That just friends, just friends. But it was really I
have thoughts. So Formula one seems to really take over
anywhere it goes. So anywhere you went in Vegas last weekend,
there was an activation or a car or a pop
(24:19):
up store or something that made it just feel like
anything and everything was about Formula one for Vegas that weekend.
And I kept on thinking, like why I understand now
more some of the stuff about Live having gone to
Formula one because It's clear that they were like trying
(24:40):
to recreate that less stops, more glamorous places, just more
of a vibe. And that's everything that Formula one is doing,
and even down to their shotgun start. But I don't
know that execution ever really came to fruition. And it's like,
for the PGA Tour, how can they or golf in general,
(25:01):
with any any professional golf, how can they make the
stops that they go to turn into these places They're
just like the whole city is alive with the fact
that the golf is there, the whole everybody knows it's
a part of everything that you're doing that weekend. It
like really feel the impact of the event on the city.
But like when the PGA Tour, No nothing against the Dallas,
but like when the PGA Tour goes to Dallas for
(25:23):
the Byron Nelson, Like does anybody care or know in
the greater area that, wow, the tours in town that
week Like now, so it just feels like it's so
it's so fucked, Yeah, where are the activations? Where is
that stuff?
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Well, I agree with you, and I've said this before,
I've spoken about this.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
I think the PGA tours.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Obviously they have the resources, the money, and and and
the marketing ability way more than the LPGA. But I've
said this, like, how are we going to make the
LPGA like an event? Like when it comes into like,
oh yeah, all Texas, Like everyone's like, holy shit, the
OPG and town the next week.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
We have to go.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
We have to go, and it has to be an event.
I can agree more because Formula one's weird to me, right,
Like my brother, one of my brothers is obsessed with
Formula one, and like my dad watched it a little bit,
like kind of men in my family watch it a
little bit. But it's become so popular. I think it's
from Drive to Survive, that documentary thing. But it's fucking weird,
(26:22):
isn't it.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
I think it is to get yeah, it is weird,
and to go in person you see them pe Yeah,
but it's like a celebrity.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
But it's Yeah, the driving is secondary to actually event
around it and the fact the fact that you can
be a part of the paddock club and go and
walk on the actual track and go.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
And see the actual cars and the drivers these drivers. Okay,
so golfers could never before the race. They're all doing
pre race interviews, every single one of them. Then they
make them get into a truck that rides around the
entire track like a parade, like a pageant. It's literally
a fucking pageant to wave at all the people so
(27:06):
that people can actually see them before they get into
the cars. Okay, they're about to go and drive two
hundred miles an hour bed and yeah, exactly, and they're
riding around in this Okay. Then they do the race.
Then immediately after the race, the winners do all this
crazy stuff, the champagne, the interviews. Then they make them
(27:27):
get into a pink Cadillac car made out of legos,
driven by terry crews all around the track. The top
three guys have to get into this pink lego Cadillac
and drive around and wave at the people while everything's miked.
And they're like, it's just it's like they know who
butters their bread. They understand that they are part of
(27:50):
a show that this is. You can't just show up,
drive and leave that. I'm sorry, that is not how
this works. This is entertainment people, So dance, monkey dance. Yes,
you are a part of a show, you say, why, President,
Like golf like there needs to be more access to
like if it's not a paddock club, it's a range club,
(28:10):
like you can literally be right there. Like the program,
the program has to be so blown out. It's not
like Eli Manning shows up like okay, cool, they do
one post about him as he plays around, Like there
needs to be camera crew on every single person. There
needs to be like massive tunnels that these people are
going through where they can like be with the fans.
Like it's just I was like, wow, like we're doing
(28:30):
one percent of this. Yeah, one percent of this, so
no wonder it's not as popular and huge and guys
driving around in circles is a bigger deal than seventy
two holes of golf.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
Yeah, I know, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
That's my that was my fee of the day. But
I mean, like as no, I agree, it's agree.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
It's like, I mean, it's just there's so much money
and Formula one though I think that's the thing is
but the PJA tools dey have that budget.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
Yeah, I know, I know, I know, I know carect
trust me.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I've been I've been barking up this tree on the
LPGA for years. I've been doing it for years.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
We just I don't know. It's a budget thing.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I don't know, it's not much thing. It's for the players.
Like I'm sorry, just isn't going to cut it.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
It's not I know, I agree with that.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
And the problem is because the independent contract is like
F one, okay, this is my f one is with McLaren.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
You're with Ferrari with you know what I mean, Mercedes, and.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
They own you and they make you do whatever you've
signed up for. That fair.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
I'm sorry, but fuck me.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
The reason you're playing for form millions old the check
this week is because like like we can't, like I'm sorry,
like you need to. I don't know how to word this,
but I've always said this. I'm like, you have to
give back, Like I know it's paying the ass doing
press complice. I know it's pain in the ass doing
like walking talks, but it's not.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
It's not. But it's like you're so lucky to do this,
Like no one's going to feel bad for you. You're
playing professional golf. You have to talk about now great
you are, like no crime you have but like gin
know you know she does, you know gregation she's great, Shelah,
but she was doing so much.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Yeah, I know, but this is what I think Craig's
got a vision of and like with the broadcast stuff,
like he wants to mix it up with the broadcast
stuff as well and get it a little bit less
like suit and tie is my understanding, and make it
a bit more showy. And I'm like, you also need
to get like musicians and ship like you know what
I mean, like during the weeks and add things like that.
And well, this is like it's an event, an event.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
So so two weeks ago, Kai Trump played in the
I know what you're going to say, plan event, Okay, yeah,
and you know, say what you will about there's a
there's a whole different conversation we could have about that.
But at the end of the day, she was there
for clicks and views and attention for the golf tournament
because how many how many she knew was to share
(30:49):
TikTok life but millions and millions. Yeah, So Beth Anne
Nichols wrote an article in Golf Week about how it
was great that she was there. The LPGA barely posted
about her posted at once, like, guys, I know, she's
(31:11):
barely paying it, paying attention to the like the person.
This is the post followed person in your field. She's
there for one reason and one reason only, and we're
not even taking advantage of that.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Come on, we spoke about that last week. Actually got
brought up in conversation. Couldn't agree more with you, Like
this is like, like you said, you can get into
the reason why she was there, but Krum is a
big name and she has a gazillion followers on Instagram
and TikTok.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Why are we not elevating the tool that is the
only reason she is there.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
She's not gonna win the Dolph Torment. She's not really
going to make the curt like she's not. That's not
why the event. That's fine, Like we elevate the event.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
Yeah, I know, I'm not.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I have no issue with that at all. I've always
not had an issue with things like that. Players get
like really upset by it, like oh that was like
I could have got that. I'm not.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Well you didn't, so.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Sorry it is show business and like yeah, to get
into your spot in there, like I'm sorry, the.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Better or had a million followers, so yeah, exactly, like
next time, exactly, No, I agree with you, I agree
with you.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
But yes, again, the LPGA get given these opportunities and
they missed the boat and it's really really frustrating.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
It's really frustrating.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Yeah, and you know, like the you know, I don't
want to say anything about she's a kid, like she's
a young girl, then that it has been doing a
great opportunity to decide to take it. So that's kind
of where I stand on if she should have been
there at all. But the fact that we can't even
use that cornally is a really frustrating thing.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
So sorry, can I say one more thing on that?
Speaker 2 (32:50):
So our demographic of people that watch golf, like majority
is is you know, the older generation or the very
very young generation like that, that middle generation, you know,
fifteen to thirty five. We don't really get a lot
of fans watching that. Now somebody like Kai Trump has
the ability to tap into that market as well cool
(33:11):
for those and make cool like my nephews only watched
golf because of Bryson on YouTube and you know, the
good good guys and you know the Internet Invitational.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Did you see any of that crazy stuff that the
barstool David dave Porte was.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
Someone was texting me about it. Did that guy like
not show up or something was that.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
Yeah, I think there's the guy Luke Kwan that overs
up to tea time or something, but I mean that
that took over the internet, golf internet for a week.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
It's just the way it's going now.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
So yeah, I couldn't agree more with you, could not
agree more with you.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
But anyway, Formula one was great. It was really fun.
How are we there for? I was there and Saturday
Andrew came with me and we went to cool parties
and you know, it was just everything is just feels
so elevated. And even the wags Formula one wags are
(34:14):
so I mean dressed to the nice, just so gorge
so fab and golf swags are great, but golf wags
have a different mandate in that they can't show up
in six inch heels and a Gucci outfit because they
got to walk a golf they're out there for eighteen
(34:34):
And there's also in golf, there's not like a specific
place that everybody knows is the chic place to sit
where there's a camera on you at all times. So
in tennis, you're in the player's box and you're doing
you're looking back and forth like this, and you have
your cool outfit on. You're not gonna sweat, you're just
sitting there in Formula one, it's the same thing. You're
(34:55):
in the paddock, you have the headphones on, there's a
camera on you the entire time you're with the tea,
Like it looks.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
Cool, blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
But the golf wags kind of don't have that opportunity
because like, were you gonna sit inside the clubhouse where
they don't have cameras or or there's not really it's
not really realistic for us to have a camera fon, Like,
no one is following Meredith Scheffler the whole whole time
while she's watching Scottie. Half the reason is that she's
not out there the whole time. She's like with the
baby or she's doing something else. N eighteen holes is
like takes forever, so long, it's like what she gonna do?
Speaker 5 (35:24):
We like walk around for six hours with an around
everybody just go for the last too.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
There is no no mayre. I mean like they show
them as they're about to win, but that you know,
that's very a fleeting moment. So from the wag culture
making sport cool. Because there's this girl named Morgan Riddle,
who is like the tennis wag and she's become super
famous from her social media around her fashion of going
(35:50):
to stuff like we just don't There's some golf wags
that try to do that, but they just can't do
it on the same level because of the logistics of
the event. So even from that like we got it,
like how can we make it so chic and so
bab that that's what the girlies want to get into
that they want they want to go and sit at
the Byron Nelson in the cool area. I'm sorry to
(36:12):
Byron Nelson. I don't mean to pick on you, sir.
You're rest.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
It was just an example. It was just an example.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
Offended. I'm sorry. Sorry, Well, I just feel bad that
I keep shitting on this one tournament. It's just I
don't know why I sold we want I think funny.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Yeah good, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Everyone's me. I mean,
I enjoyed watching Josh five.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
But it's just it's just I mean, guys just get
massive bonus for don't they.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
Yeah, I mean, and.
Speaker 5 (36:52):
That's just a inherent to the structure of their league
where the drive is tiny.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
That's that's ripped, but they're tiny. They're like jockeys.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
There are Alex Alban, who drives for Williams. He is
dating Lily Lily He yeah here, yeah, Lily here yeah,
and so Hallie and I decided that he's just Lily's boyfriend,
so he would do something, would go Lily's boyfriend. Yes,
(37:26):
she was, she looks so she's she looked so hot.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
Yeah, she's done him.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Yeah, he was at like Evian or something. He's been
to a couple of events where she's been playing.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Is she still playing?
Speaker 3 (37:39):
She's played at Yeah, yeah, yep, yep, good.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
You.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
Your Christmas deck's up?
Speaker 1 (37:50):
No, Helene, I had had a deep discussion about this
because it's it's a little rude to Thanksgiving. And I
know that for you because you're not, okay, well rude Thanksgiving.
The whole reason Thanksgiving exists is because the Pilgrims left
(38:11):
your country to come here, and I had to give
thanks for the things that they were able to. I mean,
obviously there's a lot more to this story, but thank
you people.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
I actually love a Thanksgiving. I love a Thanksgiving to
your turkey doo.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Yeah, it's that your favorite Thanksgiving food? Do you have
a favorite Thanksgiving food.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
Okay, listen, So I do like Thanksgiving I do.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
We do a little ticket in the morning, and then
out here in Jacksonville there's a thing called Peacegiving Piece
Bar is a diveboard dive bar down in Neptune Beach.
I don't know if you've ever been. It's over one
hundred years old. It's amazing. It is amazing. It's proper divy.
It's been ungraded now, like there's actually doors on the
toilets and stuff.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
So that's good.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
Yeah, so it's nicer now nice.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
I tend to go.
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Yeah, I just enjoy a bit of peak sometimes when
I'm out with the boys and we have one too many,
we end up in there anyway. But after the Turkey Trot,
what they do is they bring all the it's like
down like Neptune Beach. There's a bunch of bars and
restaurants and coffee shops, and they kind of bring all
the bars out onto the street after.
Speaker 3 (39:19):
The Turkey chart. So there's thousands of people. They shut
down the whole street, and that's where the Turkey chart finishes.
Speaker 2 (39:25):
Yeah, and then it shuts down in one so like
people are just kind of having a few drinks and
then they go back and have Thanksgiving.
Speaker 3 (39:30):
So I'm on Turkey duty.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Now.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
There's a few things on the menu which I find
quite strange. Love of green bean castrole, love that lover
stuff in. It's not in English stuff in, but whatever
you guys do a good stuff in.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Okay, I'm out on super ready stuffing.
Speaker 2 (39:52):
I like it.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
Light bread sasage, yes, okay, I agree with you.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
See we don't put bread in our stuffing.
Speaker 1 (39:59):
Okay, So I don't like a lot of bread and
stuff Yeah.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
My mother in law doesn't do a lot of bread
actually and stuffing, so that's probably I like it. Sweet
potato thing great, But what's with the fucking marshmallows in it?
Speaker 1 (40:10):
Okay? No, that's not for me. I'm strictly against marshmallows
and savory food.
Speaker 3 (40:16):
Okay, So okay, that's.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
A very strange. No, Well, this is like a Midwestern yes,
a very Midwestern.
Speaker 3 (40:26):
But I think mashed potato. Love mash potatoes.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
Well, the mash cranberry sauce. Love a cranberry sauce.
Speaker 3 (40:35):
What else is that mash?
Speaker 1 (40:37):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (40:37):
I don't know what else that that's pretty much your
gravy is fucking weird, Like I want to be on
gravy duty, but Carli would let me.
Speaker 3 (40:44):
I think your gravy is quite odd.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
What's our gravy?
Speaker 2 (40:47):
It's just a weird color to me, Like it should
be darker than that. It should be a bisto gravy.
What a bisto gravy is like a British gravy.
Speaker 1 (40:57):
Okay, I don't know what that word means, but.
Speaker 3 (40:58):
Okay, I mean corn. We have corn.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
Maybe that's because we're Carlie's from Nebraska. There's lots of
corn in the household.
Speaker 1 (41:06):
We do like a carrot, carrot and whipped cot or
something something that's like a honey and mint.
Speaker 2 (41:17):
Oh that sounds really good, delicious. Okay, But listen, I
love a Thanksgiving, I really do. And I think it's
just nice that I get the family together, isn't it.
But we have put the tree up. We put the
tree up this.
Speaker 1 (41:30):
Morning, so Andrew and I will put our tree up
on this coming Sunday. So we have so we're going
to we have Thanksgiving on Wednesday with my family, okay,
and then Thanksgiving on Thursday with Andrew's family. Nice, and
then Friday, Saturday we'll hang it's the various families Sunday
(41:53):
will come home, put a birch tree. Nice. But on
Sunday this is a new Thanksgiving tree. Well, what's been
doing it? This will be our fourth year doing it.
There's this yoga instructor named Rusty Wells that once a
year he comes to San Francisco and he teaches the
yoga flow on Ocean. I think I'm probably need to
tell us this. Yes, okay, very cool. So Rusty is
(42:16):
back and he's teaching on Sunday and it's the most
woo wu but fun with good modern music. But then
they chant and there's drums and the whole thing and
it's like the craziest workout of your life. So we're
gonna do that on Sunday and then come home and
put up our tree.
Speaker 3 (42:33):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
That sounds good. I know that, yea's nice. I like Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2 (42:41):
I have realized as well putting up Christmas decorations or
just having decorations on in general, because.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
I'm a bit.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
What do you call it, a type type? There we go,
I'm a bit hype about this stuff. So I kind
of like things a certain way. I like my house
look a certain way of Christmas. Having a toddler now
like last year's fine because he didn't real to give
a ship having a toddler when you're doing that. We've
already lost three ball balls this morning. They smashed on
the floor. And he's obsessed, obsessed with the Christmas lights,
(43:10):
so keeps telling them on and off and they stopped
working a minute ago. And he's obsessed with the decorations,
so he keeps like, broke one of the Santa ones
already and it's only been it for what four hours?
Speaker 3 (43:22):
So by the time Christmas.
Speaker 2 (43:23):
Hits, you're going to have nothing nothing. I'm going to
have the cool So it might be the most expensive
Christmas of my life. Merry Christmas, but whatever, you just
will miss these memories, I'm sure. But Carlie was getting
a bit impatient with him this morning.
Speaker 1 (43:42):
She's like, I stopped throwing the ball balls on the floor. So, yeah,
I love Christmas. Christmas is a season, not holiday. Yeah,
I mean, I love I just I don't want to
start it too early because I want to make sure
you appreciate every single moment. Anyway, moving on, Oh my god,
(44:03):
not the rolling of the eyes.
Speaker 3 (44:05):
Moving on.
Speaker 1 (44:06):
That is nice. It's true. I want to be able
to savor everything. And if it's you have too much
of a good thing, then you you become is Christmas.
In it is Christmas.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
You meant to have too much of it? Get it up,
We'll get it up.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
Okay, Okay, do we want to say anything about the
PGA Tour coming to a close? Not really? Okay, Well,
just don't say everyone everyone got hot chechen. Good.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
Summarize it. There used to be one hundred and twenty
five cards. Now the PJ Tour got it down to
one hundred cards. So now the poor bustards who were
from one O one to one twenty five you did
have a job last year and now don't, so it's
all fucked.
Speaker 3 (44:48):
There we go, so the poor.
Speaker 1 (44:49):
Grabs see me with alamack.
Speaker 2 (44:51):
You probably finish first guy from Finland when the PHA
Tour that's picking up to Sammy, and that is the
PJ tools the inter nutshell.
Speaker 3 (45:00):
Honestly, can I sue if I just did that in
Golf Central? Oh, I need to take a drink after that,
my breath away.
Speaker 1 (45:07):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (45:09):
I mean, it's perfect.
Speaker 1 (45:10):
That's all the people need to know for the week. Well,
yeah I do actually, Okay, so very very fortunate.
Speaker 2 (45:20):
This week we got put up in the rich Carton
on site Tibron lovely love a rizzy.
Speaker 3 (45:28):
Kids menus.
Speaker 2 (45:29):
I understand it's a rich Carton, right, I understand that
things are just gonna. The prices are through the roof,
are just not you know what I mean? A banana
is five bucks, like.
Speaker 1 (45:37):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (45:40):
Kids menus should not be ranked up. Okay, it is
a I ordered him butter penne okay, a butter penne
pasta dish, right, which is a size of that? Right?
Speaker 3 (45:52):
Yeah, like the size of my first How much trecking
it was? Actually? No, here we go, Here we go,
let's play this game, okay.
Speaker 2 (45:58):
Me and Carl ordered two s salads okay, a butter
penny kids kid's meal, the kai, a bowl of fruit,
and I had a glass of wine, one glass of wine,
red wine. How much shreking that bill was? So two salads,
a kid's pasta kid's fruit, and one glass.
Speaker 5 (46:19):
Of wine one hundred and fifty dollars, yeah, one hundred
and forty six bucks.
Speaker 1 (46:22):
Really?
Speaker 2 (46:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (46:24):
You know why I am attuned to high prices right now?
Because I was just in Vegas this weekend and Andrew
and I got two breakfast sandwiches, two cappuccinos. It was
fifty three dollars.
Speaker 3 (46:33):
No, you're joking.
Speaker 1 (46:34):
No, that is.
Speaker 3 (46:37):
How the fuck I mean. That is just daylight robbery.
Speaker 1 (46:39):
So yeah, that's my that's my listen.
Speaker 2 (46:42):
If you're if you give me a gorgeous steak, I
will pay whatever, right, take my money, take my money.
But it's a kid's fucking mac and cheese. Like it's
not even the cheese. It's just kids mac. It's just butter,
just butter. And it came in three seconds. So yeah,
that's all I have to say to that. That's my
shush of the week. Is just so HIPing at these
big prices. Just give me a mac and cheese for
(47:04):
five bucks, like it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (47:06):
I agree with that. That's a great shush, Thank you, monsieur.
Well my shush is the Vegas Strip people.
Speaker 2 (47:17):
Yes, I'm going to say next week, so I'm going
to have a Vegas I'm doing a golf day for
AWS on the first summer cool.
Speaker 1 (47:26):
So Andrew and I took an uber to the wind
from the Hilton gram Vacations property a Lara because we
wanted to go to the Earth Cafe there. It's a
they have them in La It's a great breakfast spot.
So if anyone's ever in Vegas and wants something, oh yeah,
oh yes, you should go to Earth. But there were
(47:46):
we didn't actually get to go to Earth because it
was a five thousand people line. So then we ended
up at that coffee shop where we got two breakfast
sanwiches and two capchinas for three dollars. But Earth would
have been expected expensive too, but whatever, it's fine. So
we had our fifty three dollars breakfast, and then we
decided let's walk back to the Alara because I don't know,
(48:07):
I just have the I walk everywhere in San Francisco.
I when I lived in New York. I like to
walk in a city.
Speaker 3 (48:13):
It just is healthy.
Speaker 1 (48:15):
And I was like, let's yeah, let's walk it off.
It'll be great. Oh my god. It was scary. It
was fairal There were these women that had no tops
on but they had tape on their nips and they
were running around and hitting people with whips.
Speaker 3 (48:35):
Are you sure you okay?
Speaker 1 (48:37):
It was scary. So at that point I was like, Andrew,
we need to go into the small and tide. I
was so scared.
Speaker 3 (48:43):
I mean, but it was it was.
Speaker 1 (48:45):
It was also just like the very wild in Vegas dude,
like like not like funny wild, I mean very blatant,
like you know, all supportive of s workers and you
got to do, you got to do. But there was
like a really dark side to that with like women
passing out cards of faces and it just looked very
(49:07):
untoured and kind of not great. So yeah, like that
was I was like, I don't want to see this.
This is weird. You can get I didn't know. I
ran into the mall to hide. I was going to say, yeah,
but are going to get story there to be fair. Yeah,
I'm okay, I'm good, We're good. We're good on that experience,
(49:28):
just you know you're walking through a certain part. You know,
it's like the cigarette smoke or like people just like
really drinking a lot at nine in the morning. Like
there's some like like the Vegas can be I always
say Vegas can be amazing if you just squint your
eyes a little bit and it's like look at all
this other stuff, Like there's so much about it that
(49:48):
reminds you of the worst of people and people's base
instincts of just being a piece of ship and that
removes the glamour and the magic of what Vegas can be,
which is an amazing dinner, an amazing show, an amazing
night at the club, a fabulous hotel, like all those
parts of Vegas. I love, like I love a Vegas weekend.
It's so fun. But then you're also you just got
(50:11):
to make sure you swing your eyes a little bit
so you don't see that the really as you would say, rank.
Speaker 3 (50:17):
Feralness.
Speaker 1 (50:18):
Yeah, just just don't walk down the Las Vegas Strip.
It's just not It is a strange takeaway, the false
reality you've built in your mind of yeah places, it.
Speaker 2 (50:32):
Is such a strange place for I can agree with this,
two completely different sides of the spectrum, isn't there. There's
like the amazing restaurants, amazing clubs, like the amazing DJs
and like you did, she feel like you're in a
fantasy land and like the sphere and things like that,
and then you're absolutely so sick yeh, feralness of the
creatures that are out there, which is really sad to see.
Speaker 1 (50:53):
Michelle lives in Vegas and every time I've gone to
visit her, like it's an amazing time. Lives beautiful, beautiful
neighborhoods and amazing golf courses and fantastic restaurants like that.
Speaker 3 (51:04):
People are living there.
Speaker 1 (51:05):
Yeah, I mean it's very convenient airport. It could use
better food and all that, but convenient.
Speaker 2 (51:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (51:13):
Yeah, I actually don't mind Vegas Airport.
Speaker 1 (51:15):
No, everything, there's just this part of it. And you're like,
oh god, so.
Speaker 2 (51:18):
Yeah that's my show. Well yeah, I nice shush, nice shush. Well,
I can't wait for my shush from Vegas when I go, Oh, I.
Speaker 1 (51:29):
Can't wait for your stories.
Speaker 2 (51:30):
Well, I'm actually very well behaved with that trip because
I kind of I'm in and out because it's just Thanksgiving.
Speaker 3 (51:35):

more than we probably should needed.
