Speaker 3 (00:27):
Yeah, you know, just I guess it's gonna go out
there and try to swing it and ding it. All right,
Hello and welcome to Swing it and Ding It live
from the Truest Championship on this beautiful Creator Classic Wednesday
at What I like to say is, you know, offense
to other courses in Philadelphia, at my favorite golf.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Course in the area, how you're shaking your head. Don't
know why you're shaking.
Speaker 5 (00:51):
A hand now, because I knew that was coming. I mean,
it's sort of the obligatory sign on now these days.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
But I got the hat on too too.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
What I'll tell you is, though I didn't recognize the
place because you know, obviously, when when a tournament like
this is going on, there's a lot going on, and uh,
you know, just getting in here was was crazy. And
once I came around to what Harry now told me
is number five. I was like, okay, now I have
my bearings, but we are happy to be here. This
is Moose along with May's and Matthews. We are sponsored
(01:19):
by Bette Parks. We'll talk about that more when we
see the line. And our friends from Buy My Balls.
I wonder if these creators have used by My balls.
They look like they're gonna need some today on this course.
And we have a special guest with us today, Brooke
Golf from GoF law firm Brook, Welcome to Swinging Day.
Speaker 6 (01:34):
Thinks so much fun.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Did you bring the weather today?
Speaker 6 (01:37):
I did?
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Well.
Speaker 7 (01:38):
I'm from Connecticut, so the weather's been just as bad
there as here. You brought the weather for me, and
I appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
It's terrific today.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Yeah, so there's so much we want to talk about.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
You know, we'll talk about the tournament a little bit,
get your insights, but but you are what we like
to refer extremely affectionately, a golf Sico like us I am,
and we love we love talking to Goicos.
Speaker 7 (01:59):
I left my wife to come to this and there
was a fight before. So yeah, definitely have a.
Speaker 8 (02:03):
Golf We meet Wednesdays at six pm.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Yeah, so you'll have to send me if you can
zoom in.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
I'm all in on that perfect talk about your when
when you were a bit by the golf bug and
uh what that's turned didn't.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Do for you?
Speaker 6 (02:17):
So my store is actually pretty interesting golf journey we
call it.
Speaker 7 (02:21):
Yeah. So I was a softball player and then most golfers,
a lot of women, especially were I went to college.
Speaker 6 (02:28):
I did.
Speaker 7 (02:29):
I was playing D one softball for a little while
and I got diagnosed with type one diabetes and that
changed my life quite a bit. And you know, softball
was a little difficult to play. So I found golf,
and golf is a slower paced sport which allows somebody
with something like type one diabetes to manage it on course,
(02:51):
and golf has I am so upset I didn't find
it earlier. I'm thankful for diabetes. I know nobody says that,
but then I found it later. But I've been playing
since I was about I don't know if since I
was about twenty five, twenty six.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Okay, yeah, okay, that's incredible.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
So talk about what you do and how that allows
you to kind of take advantage of this game and
get out there more often.
Speaker 7 (03:12):
Well, I knew nobody was going to allow me to
have no business. No boss was going to allow me
to take any days off that I wanted. So I
knew it was on my own, on my own canoe, right.
So I started Golf Law Group in twenty seventeen, and
I started it at my kitchen table. I drove for
Uber and Lyft so I could pay payroll at nights.
I didn't take a paycheck for almost three and a
(03:32):
half years, and then it was literally built at my
table with one attorney and one other employee. And now
twenty twenty five, we have just about seventy employees with
eighteen lawyers, fifteen of which are women, which is which
is pretty great in the litigation space. And like I said,
(03:55):
I'm the boss, so they know if I'm.
Speaker 6 (03:58):
Not in where I am at.
Speaker 7 (04:00):
Actually, between the months of April and November and between
after that they question where I am. But now they've
realized I found virtual golf as well, so they know
where I'm at.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
Is one of the requirements to work in your firm
to at least appreciate golf ready.
Speaker 6 (04:14):
So such a good question I have, I have.
Speaker 7 (04:18):
We've bought golf sets for some of the employees. Very interested.
We have corporate memberships at TPC in Connecticut and Cromwell.
We have corporate membership at Tumblebrook in West Harford, Connecticut.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
But I need to go to law school, I'm going
to tell you.
Speaker 7 (04:38):
So we're in the in an expansion process for the
next eighteen months. And in that expansion space is going
to be a golf simulator where we will have tournaments.
I have one of my house. We'll have tournaments.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
I know. Listen, SICKO, is.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
It you're talking to the right people.
Speaker 8 (04:52):
We're all sending our resumes over.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Now what are the hours?
Speaker 7 (04:56):
I mean, if you can play in a tournament, the
hours can be variable, right.
Speaker 6 (04:59):
But I'm the person that will sit up.
Speaker 7 (05:01):
At ten at night and be like, did I eat
enough tonight with the diabetes that I can get down
there and just just three chip shots and I come
up at eleven thirty, you know, and it's like maybe
I need to have a second meal. But yeah, golf
is definitely a passion, and being an attorney is a
competitive drive for you know, for something to do as
far as work, and we bring it. I would argue
(05:22):
we are the best attorneys in the state of Connecticut.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Hands down.
Speaker 7 (05:25):
You don't grow a business in seven years and end
up where we are to if you're not doing the
right things. But a big part for me of my downtime,
my mental health time, is golf. And when I talk
to people and associates, I tell them get involved in
the sport. It's so good for your mental health. It's
so oh most of the times change.
Speaker 6 (05:45):
Most of the time.
Speaker 7 (05:45):
I mean, you know Mulligan's breakfast balls. If you're amongst friends, yeah,
you know, yeah, who's really counting. And it's great for business,
it's well so we have the corporate memberships. I my
community outreach, so we do thirty five golf tournaments a year.
We sponsor so and it's all different charities all throughout Connecticut.
And it's such a really cool thing to be able
to do and give back. And I bring, you know,
(06:07):
our clients.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
I bring a lot of vendors.
Speaker 7 (06:09):
That we deal with, doctors, and we go out and
we play and we make up the teams. We won
one on Sunday actually for juvenile diabetes, two hundred and
forty nine golfers and we've got in the room and
we're like seventeen underwon it, but we'll take it.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Yeah, but yeah, there's been a lot of crazy numbers.
That's a fair, honest win. I appreciate that.
Speaker 7 (06:27):
I mean so funny. We went to there's a course
at Mohegan Sun. It's not I mean, it's not the best.
Don't make the trip to Connecticut there. I'll take you
a few courses you should play in Connecticut. But you know,
so we were there and it was like that, but
it was rain for days. Finally the sun wasn't even
really up. We go over there to a tournament for
the Connecticut Sun and last year and we're I mean,
(06:49):
we were a good team. We finished maybe fifteen under,
and I mean it was a miracle.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
Because it was so bad.
Speaker 7 (06:56):
The conditions were off and the sand bunkers were like
roped off, don't just pick your pall.
Speaker 6 (07:00):
But when on the other side of it was bad.
Speaker 7 (07:01):
But anyways, we get in the court, we get in
the clubhouse and I'm like, we have a shot.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
I think maybe twenty seven under.
Speaker 7 (07:08):
I'm like, Tiger, Rory and Bryson came out here and
that's the only way.
Speaker 6 (07:13):
Where are they? Where are they?
Speaker 7 (07:14):
And it's this table of these maybe seventy something sitting
there all innocently and nobody's going to say anything to them,
right and maybe like to each their own. But I'm
like to do this course in twenty seven. I mean,
oh yeah, somebody's hitting three fifty. Yeah, somebody setting three fifty,
and somebody's one hundred yard game is falling like six
inches from the pen.
Speaker 8 (07:33):
That's the only way it's you play from the junior season.
Speaker 7 (07:36):
Yeah, exactly like the junior junior ones, right, but or
there's an air cannon on every hole and you're buying
the five foot putt.
Speaker 6 (07:44):
Yeah, No, it's Connecticut's good place.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
To play off.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
Talk about you know, the women's in power. You're talking
to a data four daughters. You're talking to Danielle who
just had her first daughter.
Speaker 8 (07:53):
Oh congratulations, and have an all female run business.
Speaker 6 (07:56):
Awesome thing.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
I know a lot of ones.
Speaker 6 (07:59):
That's fairy. You're surrounded by two of them right now.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
But I'll tell you what. Harry plays with his wife
all the time.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
He is the biggest proponent of the LPGA, total covers
it more on the show than anybody. So just talk
about that in the game of golf and what you're seeing, right, now,
and to me, what is an incredible just expansion and
explosion for women in the game of golf.
Speaker 7 (08:18):
So we can be honest on here, right, So the
biggest issue with women's LPGA is the lack of media coverage.
You have women's basketball right now that's blowing up, and
we're seeing it blow up, and then the media is adapting, right,
so we're crawling.
Speaker 6 (08:35):
Little by little.
Speaker 7 (08:36):
If the PGA tournaments are on, sometimes you need a
special package with your television to even see the LPGA stuff. Right,
And there's some women out there, I'm sorry, they're playing
just as well as the men on the PGA.
Speaker 6 (08:48):
I mean they are. It's not about how far I
hit the ball. We all know that.
Speaker 7 (08:51):
The instancy, yeah, and it's like they just can't miss
and it's you know, so I think that the biggest
It's such an exciting time too. And I spoke to
Anica Sorenston last year at Tahoe and I said, how
do we get more women in the game? And she agreed,
she goes, you know, just it's a great sport. We
just have to educate them, you know, teach them the game,
teach them the game. I think that when the media
(09:14):
covers the LPGA events. That's what's happening when you're watching them,
you're learning the game.
Speaker 6 (09:20):
I do think that the commentators need work.
Speaker 7 (09:23):
I think they commentators speak to the people as if
they're women, and that turns if I tend to think
of myself, I'm very educated in the sport. I want
to be spoken to the same way you're going to
speak to a man on the PGA tour. I do,
and the commentators are very like, yay, we and I'm like,
I don't want that. Give me the hard fast roll.
She shanked it out of the bunker. Call it for
(09:44):
what it is. Now, let's like get down on her.
They talk about how she like needs to.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
Overcome that pot. Yes, they coddled, and it's like, I
didn't want to watch that hat So you know what
we do.
Speaker 7 (09:54):
I have a one and a half year old daughter,
twelve year old son. Waited a while one and a
half year old daughter. I mute it and I watch
it and I'm like, Okay, if something big happens, I mean,
I'll catch it. But the commentators need work. It's like
the same people that are commentating for the PGA need
to be commentating for the LPGA. I just I don't
understand the wise and if you watch women's sports, it's
(10:16):
very similar except basketball.
Speaker 6 (10:18):
Basketball has gotten a lot better.
Speaker 8 (10:19):
Just throw Dottie on the broadcast the LPGA bronte.
Speaker 7 (10:23):
Who wants to listen or watch it when they're treating
it like it's like like pink versus blue, like but
find the middle ground. And I think that's your biggest weakness.
I think the commentating these work, and I think that,
I mean, sponsors need to step up. Women are not
worth twenty five percent of what met are worth. If
you have a woman on the tour that is winning
(10:44):
and is doing everything that a man on the tour
is doing, you need to reward them. You need to
set a standard, and you need to throw money at
what it is so you encourage other women who are
sitting in school now saying, oh, well, if all i
can make, if all I can make is a million bucks,
if I'm on the tour, can go create content and
make ten million dollars, what are you doing?
Speaker 9 (11:04):
Yeah, definitely room for improvement, but there has been positive
upper Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
They're definitely and I think it takes it takes.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
It takes a Nelly Quarta. I think, you know, Caitlyn Clark.
Speaker 7 (11:14):
I think you need like you have a Nellie. So yeah,
you know that's the thing because Nelly's I mean more Lexi.
She's so fun to watch. Yeah, and it's like I
feel like, but the problem is, I feel like if
you ask a lot of women, they don't know who
she is. And that's every woman knows who Kaitlin Clark is.
Most will say eighty percent that you'll find I'd say
maybe fifteen percent. No Nellie and I would say yeah,
(11:37):
And you know that is the media coverage. That is
the coverage. But I agree with you, yes, increase in
the purses. But it's like nobody's doing you know, we
live in a country. Nobody's doing things slowly. Somebody needs
to step up. This is Nike's chance, Reboxes, somebody's Adidas.
Somebody stop selling shirts and step up and pay these
people and then it's going to work its way out.
It's like nobody's crawling the way we're at a crawl. It's
(12:00):
like nobody wants to crawl. Somebody dropped the hammer and
set a standard and let everybody else follow.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
No doubt, no doubt.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
All right, well, let's get your your thoughts on this
tournament we are at today. You have you watch a
lot of golf, you consume McAll, you got a lot
of tournaments. We talked a little bit before about some
of the players. Who can you see uh walking away
with a beautiful cricket?
Speaker 4 (12:19):
You see the cricket paddle?
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Is it a paddle?
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Yeah? Who can you see walking away with?
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Well?
Speaker 7 (12:25):
Hold on, So I would say this is Harmon's tournament
to win.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
I do it's his game. I think he played this.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
This course is short in some regard, and it's gonna
be hard for a lot of these guys that are
used to playing these longer courses.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
To play seventy one hundred right par seven years? What
it's playing.
Speaker 7 (12:41):
It's gonna play a lot like Travelers Championship in Connecticut.
Does it's gonna play a lot like TPC there?
Speaker 6 (12:46):
I think it's harm at.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
Harmon's due, I especially if we get bad weather.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
He's great in the bad weather.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
Yeah, he he needs to stay in his shots in
that second guess himself, and he'll win this tournament all day.
I think more Cow is due. I don't know if
this is his tournament. I think he's due, And I
love Shane Lowry, who doesn't right, He's one of my favorites.
I think he hits a long ball and I don't think.
I don't know how he's going to do here, but
I can tell you it's Harmon's Harmon's tournament to lose.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
He hits it straight too off the t Harmon problem.
Speaker 6 (13:18):
And how great is he playing this year? So fun
to watch.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Yeah, he's always at the top of the board. It's crazy.
Speaker 9 (13:25):
So you talked about Connecticut golf, but I do have
to ask you. We're sitting here in Philly. What have
you played in Philly?
Speaker 8 (13:31):
And what is your top course in the area.
Speaker 6 (13:33):
Well, I thought they were going to ask me to
play this before I came out here. No, I don't
have a tee.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
I know.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
I'm waiting for the invite.
Speaker 7 (13:41):
You know, somebody's got an not show. Somebod's gonna get
sick from the food tonight. Something's gonna happen.
Speaker 6 (13:44):
They'll call me. But I have not played in Philly.
Can you believe it? Nope, I have not played.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
We'll change that.
Speaker 7 (13:50):
I have not played in Philly. I did just share though,
I'm going to Cabot Links in Nova Scotia this summer,
which I'm looking forward to. But I definitely want to
take a little tour around you know Jersey, you know Philly,
parts of Philly and really play some of these courses.
Speaker 6 (14:06):
Virginia has some nice course.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
What's your favorite course you've played?
Speaker 7 (14:10):
You're gonna ask me that question. Honestly, this is gonna be,
this is gonna sound. So my favorite course that I
played and my favorite course are two different things, right.
So my favorite course that I've played, like once was
the Monument Course in Arizona. We went down for the
Waste Management Tournament. We played that before it started, which
was great, but nothing beat the true Monument Course. It
was amazing. My favorite course to play, though, in Connecticut
(14:34):
is a municipal course. I belong to all these expensive
court TPC rock Ledge Golf Course in West Startford.
Speaker 6 (14:39):
Oh wow, it is my I know it is my
favorite course.
Speaker 7 (14:43):
Every time you go out there, it's just it's a
challenging course. There's holes that are straight, longer, they don't
get and I hit about a two hundred and forty
yard drive, so I hit a longer ball, and I
just find the courses are all too short for women.
I'm on every green and two. Even if it's par five,
you know rock Ledge, it's you can't. It's challenging. I mean,
(15:05):
it's got its moments. But I hit a my driver's
two forty and my three, which about two fifteen. So
when you put those two together, it's very difficult to
find a course that's that's fun for women, or you
play the men's you have to go to the other t's.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Yeah, yeah, do you ever play shn a cosset that's
one of my favorite.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
Yeah, that's that's a block from Yeah, I do.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
I love it. It's Donald Ross.
Speaker 6 (15:27):
I didn't it didn't.
Speaker 7 (15:29):
I wasn't super I'm sorry, I wasn't super impressive. I
find TPC everybody wants to talk about to be TPC
is super duper duper short.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Oh yeah, Cromwell, yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
Mean I know they were they were dogging, you know,
some of the golfers for you know, calling it out
for being super short.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
But yeah, it is.
Speaker 6 (15:50):
It's just short for me and I see where their
teas are.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
It looks like a flat back nine though, like with
that drivable par four.
Speaker 7 (15:56):
And you know, I gotta tell you so the last
holes of part four at the team, have you been yes, okay, yes,
Tony final last year, so upset he was not playing
the way he wanted to be playing.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
He stands up there.
Speaker 7 (16:08):
He hits I can tell you he was within eighty
of the pin and it's he just was like, what
do I have to lose?
Speaker 6 (16:15):
It's the last thing. I've never seen a human. I don't.
I know these long drive guys, I've never seen a
human that plays in the He hit the ball.
Speaker 7 (16:23):
You could hear it still echo from when he hit
the ball. We're all sitting in the in the corporate
box and the thing lands. I'm like, tell me, he
shank the first shot and that's the second shot.
Speaker 6 (16:33):
I mean, but it's short. That's the problem. That was
short too, though.
Speaker 5 (16:37):
Yeah, it is kind of short. You play it got
to play from the backs, but it's still short.
Speaker 8 (16:40):
I think it's fun though, when some guys can reach
the green.
Speaker 7 (16:43):
Yeah, it's so fun to watch. But especially when you're
watching the pros. But when you're playing, like you want
to want more challenge. I want more of a challenge. Yeah,
like I don't. I want to bogey holes and get
really mad about it. I want to I want to
three puts some holes and get really goull about it.
We have to, but you know it's it's rock Ledge,
is my answer. And and they'll love me for this.
(17:03):
I pay West harfor enough taxes they should throw me
a bone here. But it is my favorite and for
a municipal course, I hold it up against any course
in the state of Panatica at.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Least preferred tea times or something.
Speaker 8 (17:13):
Yeah, you get even give me that.
Speaker 6 (17:15):
And the women's group, so I get that.
Speaker 8 (17:16):
But I think powers clipped this for you and send
it over.
Speaker 7 (17:20):
I'm gonna be I'm gonna send it to Josh and
be like, here you go. When's my team know we
belong to Tumblebrook.
Speaker 6 (17:24):
That's a fun course.
Speaker 7 (17:25):
It's a it's a that's longer, okay, But it's just
as a as the same problem. These guys probably have
a finding courses on their off time to to play
if they're local somewhere, because they're not.
Speaker 6 (17:36):
That's the that's the issue I have is they're just
not long enough.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
You ever play Yale?
Speaker 6 (17:41):
I played great? Yeah, great, beautiful, something great river, great neck.
That's a hard okay, okay for women and that that
might be where you plays.
Speaker 5 (17:50):
I don't know, Yes, obviously, it's new Haven, but it's
an old school golf course that you're trying to bring back,
and it's supposed to be fantastic.
Speaker 7 (17:56):
And somebody talks about I went to Quinnipiac. Oh there,
somebody talk to me about this. Somebody day it's it's
a new.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
Was talking about it.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Yes, he was.
Speaker 7 (18:06):
I'm on the Quinnipia board and somebody was talking about this,
this this course.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
But I will tell you this.
Speaker 7 (18:12):
There is a course owned by its Sacred Heart owns
it a university in Connecticut. I think it's a great
river something like that. It is challenging, the most challenging course,
Like so challenging that I sit there afterwards and I'm.
Speaker 6 (18:26):
Like, I don't want to play tomorrow. I need a
day off.
Speaker 7 (18:29):
I need a mental health day and then I need
to call my therapist for three hour session.
Speaker 6 (18:33):
It's it's it's tough one.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
And then you go back on Thursday.
Speaker 6 (18:36):
I still go back the next day. I just have

got some game and she's got some great stories.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
But we are back.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
It is moments away from the tea times for the
Creator Classic. They are lined up right in front of us,
right here, getting on their golf carts. Just saw Claire Hogle.
We've got Josh Richard Richards right here. We were able
to chat with Page briefly.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
Daniel a lot of very very very.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Little Philly info knowledge. Hasn't played here, hasn't had a
cheese steak. This is just she's just been helicoptered in it.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Does she look like she's had cheese steaks? No, No,
no she doesn't.
Speaker 5 (19:40):
It's a great point, you know what I mean, Like, yeah,
she's probably not going to it.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
That's the kind of insights that we.
Speaker 8 (19:45):
Come to expect from Harry from Dance.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
That's a great point.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Thank you, Harry.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
But we saw our friend Chad Mums behind this operation,
the greatest idea ever that everyone has now stolen.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
Good for you, Chad.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
That's how you know imitation is the greatest one, the flattery, Harry.
But I'll tell you what, though these guys are out
there grinding, right, they don't there's a lot of cameras,
there's a lot of people. They don't want to go
out there and just hit it around like they're looking
to play good golf.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (20:10):
And Kyle Lowry, who's got one of the teams out here,
of course, former Cardinal Doherty, great great at villan nova uh,
six time All Star in the NBA, is concluding his
career with the Sixers. He's won an NBA championship, he's
won a Golden Medal. I mean, think about what he's
done in basketball. He's out here grinding.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
This is his club, and he's here all the time.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
We got a local guy here. We got ac Country
Club's Josh Kelly.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Josh Kelly, the trick shot guy.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Right all right, Josh, come on, baby, get it done, Josh,
come on, let's go local, bring it home, let's go.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
That's right.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
But I mean the Kyle Lowry is a great in
basketball and he loves golf and he's out here grinding
on the putting green for this event.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
He doesn't want to go out and embarrass himself either, No,
especially at his own club. Now.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Now, Claire Hogle is a is a very popular player
here today, to say the least.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Yeah, I don't understand. I don't get it. Frank.
Speaker 9 (21:12):
Yeah, well, Moose, you and I were sitting there and
we were were standing there. We were watching Page hit
quite a few shots. Yeah, we watched her hit Driver.
Then we were watching her hit Iron and she literally
turned to her cat and She's like, I keep chunking it.
But I'm like, there's people. There's how many people just
Page you can have a photo a photo and it's
like there, it might even be more than a PGA
tour player.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
And she accommodates.
Speaker 8 (21:33):
She does, she does.
Speaker 9 (21:34):
She's so kind, so nice, and you know she's just
turning around taking photos with everybody. But I said to Moose,
I said, wow, that that must be tough, just sitting
there and knowing you know, you're a creator. Do I
belong here? A blase blah? And then you have five
thousand people standing behind you, yelling your name, trying to
get a photo and watching you hit balls.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
And she got a great golf swing, she does.
Speaker 9 (21:53):
Yeah, absolutely, you know, but you chunk one, and you
know that's the only thing people remember did.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
And we also we saw Jim Smith, the great Jim
Smith from here at Philly Cricket Club.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
It was awesome to talk to him.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
He is the CEO director at Golf and the funny
party was like, I don't know anything to do.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
They came in here and they just took over. They
take the place over. But we did get some insights
from him.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Everyone listen in lean in here because we asked him,
we said, this is your course. You see these guys,
you know how it's set up. What do you think
is gonna happen out here? He's predicting a score in
the low twenties.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Yeah, I said, twenty two under was my.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
He said he could see it if it starts to
get tough, because he said they've tried to get the
greens are not as firm as they want them to
be right.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Now because of the water the rain.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Yeah, yep, he said, but if they if it does
tough enough, he said, maybe it goes into the teens,
the low teens when he season in twenty so great
insights from from the great Jim Smith, former guest to
swing It and ding It, and the host of this
fantastic event here today.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Yeah, they got to hope that it dries out a
little bit.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
I know they're expecting some rain on Friday again, I believe,
But if they get, you know, some wins to kick
up on the weekend and you know, maybe they could
keep that number in the teams.
Speaker 9 (23:02):
And they're already planning ahead, he told Mouse and I.
He's like, we already. They already changed the tea times
to have them going on three some days, right.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Yeah, started eleven oh nine on Thursday morning. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Yeah, beautiful, beautiful.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
So all right, let's talk about this tournament, right we
You know, we talked about seventy one hundred part seventy,
talking a little bit about the scores.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
I don't think we're going to see it.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Yeah, thirty one under two fifty three like Scotti last week?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
No, how about that?
Speaker 3 (23:29):
I mean you sent me the numbers that they did
on Sunday and I was shocked because that tournament was
over by Friday.
Speaker 5 (23:34):
Well, there was nothing else on there was no NBA
until nighttime. There was no NHL until nighttime. I know
the Phillies played at like two in the afternoon, but yeah,
they really had nothing going up against it. But I
was still curious because it was such a runaway. But
it shows you one thing. People love to see dominance.
They love to seek greatness, they do.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
You know.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
It's like, you know, I'm not comparing him to Tiger Woods.
He's as close maybe to Tiger Woods, as we've gotten
since Tiger Woods.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
That's that I will say.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
But when Tiger Woods was running away with tournaments, people
couldn't turn the television off. It's something about just seeing
a guy just making birdies and just blowing away the
field that is compelling.
Speaker 8 (24:14):
Do you know what it was like the Super Bowl?
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (24:17):
Right right, Yeah, looks like do I even want to
finish watching? Yeah, Like, there's no way this thing and
any other way. He could have bogied the last like seven.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Holes, right and still it didn't matter. Yeah, I saw.
Speaker 5 (24:30):
I watched a good bit of it, and that I
don't know if you saw the shot on nine he
hit his T shot. It's a par five, and he
hit his T shot into a fairway bunker that had
kind of had a lip on it. It wasn't one of
those flat ones you see in Florida, right, it had
a lip on it. He hits a three iron out
of the fairway bunker to about fifteen feet and stopped it.
(24:51):
And I was just I'm texting with people. I'm like,
did you see that? And then he made and then
he made eagle. He made the putt for eagle. It's
just like, you know, he's a hey by six shots
and he's still trying to fire it pins out of
fairway bunkers with three irons and makes an eagle.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Believe it really was anything else stand out for me
from from last week. It's tough to talk about anything
other than Scotty, but anything else to any other guys
you see trending in the right direction.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Jordan Speed Yeah, yeah, yeah, we just saw Yeah.
Speaker 8 (25:18):
But do you think it was his hometown?
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Wait?
Speaker 9 (25:20):
Actually, time out, Let's circle back to Scotty, because I
remember we talked about this and You're like, no, something's wrong, Da,
Da da, And I was like, nothing's wrong.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
He's just I thought he was still injured. Still, I
still thought he had a we're talking about Scheffler.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
Right, yeah, I thought it was the weight of expectation.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
You thought I thought it was the injury and said, wait,
it's fine.
Speaker 5 (25:41):
And now, of course he skips this week. I know,
which is he's a bummer. Yeah, it really is over.
Speaker 9 (25:46):
But yeah, but Jordan' speed also, they were saying, like,
homes out almost just barely made the cut.
Speaker 5 (25:50):
Yeah yeah, and then you show what shot? What's sixty
two on Sunday? He went out early, and you know
he's in here this week on a sponsors exemption.
Speaker 8 (25:58):
You're giving him some swing tips out there?
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Absolutely, Yeah. I was teaching him how to hit that
fore iron.
Speaker 5 (26:02):
You know, Harry looked like a coach out there.
Speaker 8 (26:08):
He's standing right behind him the classic arms crossed.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Well, I know what to do.
Speaker 9 (26:12):
I'm not saying you don't, you know, moves it. I
just stood back admired you. You know, it was beautiful,
giving some uh some intel.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
I was hanging there with George on the yeah on.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
The range wins this week. You know, Harry gets.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
Beehive of activity out there. It is here now, I mean,
and you know we talked about this too, right. They
they had to get a pro am in today and
then turn around and have to create a classic, right,
I mean, they couldn't have got a better day today
for this. It's absolutely beautiful out here. It's great to
see the whistle Hick and course as it is. It
took me a second to get oriented and figure out
(26:48):
where I was, but now now I can kind of
see back towards the clubhouse.
Speaker 4 (26:50):
Where we are.
Speaker 8 (26:51):
Now, there's just so much going on you can't They
don't allow you to walk on the cart path.
Speaker 9 (26:55):
That has to change tomorrow because there's not but right
now the amount of carts out here. They had to
because like you said in the tournament pro a, I'm
now the creator classic. They you know, have to get
people like me a ride. They're all over the place.
But they actually have the amount of volunteers out here.
They have like a path patrol that are making sure
that you do not step a foot on the get
on the grass, gend watch the tram car.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
They're the purple shirts.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
But isn't it amazing how the buildout changes your viewpoint.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Front of the golf course.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Yeah, it's insane.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Yeah, I mean, especially a place like this that's so
pure and like so wide open, you can see so
much And now you can't, right, You're you're kind of
blocked out by the grand stands and all the facilities
they have up here. So it really changes the entire
look of the golf course. And I'll tell you what
when you look, when you look out, it is the
most beautiful pure golf course.
Speaker 8 (27:43):
Waits the heck and creek we saw running through.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
Yeah, I'm looking now looking back up over here when
you come back around to that short part three, and
it's just I mean the people that live right there
along that they have a great view this week, I.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Mean eight and nine.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
Yeah, yeah, great holes which is number one and two
this week.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
That's right, that's right. Yeah, that's because they finishing home absolutely.
Speaker 8 (28:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Why is that why, Well, they can't have the buildout
out there's no room by theeenthole is finishing?
Speaker 4 (28:12):
Is that playing eleven?
Speaker 2 (28:13):
It's playing number eleven?
Speaker 4 (28:15):
Correct?
Speaker 3 (28:15):
Okay, I mean that is the greatest, one of the
greatest finishing holes.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
So Harry, let's talk.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
We've we talked about the course of course, but we
didn't do it officially. Give us a couple of highlights
of what people are going to be able to kind
of tune into and see when they're when they're choosing
their TV coverage here all right.
Speaker 5 (28:30):
This place, I think is going to look spectacular on
television two, which would be cool. It's the oldest country
club in the United States, and Aw Tilling has it's
his masterpiece. Back in nineteen twenty two. He loved the
play so much that his ashes were actually scattered on
the property somewhere around the eighteenth Green and that creek,
the little babbling brook that rolls through there. Of course,
(28:53):
he did Bethpage Black, he did Baltus Rawl, Wingfoot, Ridgewood,
some of the finest old school country clubs in the Northeast.
And Keith Foster came in here in twenty thirteen and
restored it. They were gonna do it in twenty eight
and then the economy tanked, so they had to put
it off until twenty thirteen. And they took down all
these trees and you know, brought the bunkers back to
(29:15):
the way Aw had them. And they were doing that
in preparation for the twenty sixteen Constellation, which was the
Senior Tour event that Bernhard Langer won here back a
few years ago. Pars seventy seven and nineteen yards and
plays short for these guys page the average green size
fifty eight hundred square feet. They're bent grass greens. You know,
(29:36):
some of these guys you start looking at turning to wager.
There are certain guys in the field that really love
putting on bent grass greens. You got to find some
of those guys. But the fairways are also bent. The
roughest fescue I was out in it on Monday. It's
over three inches thick or deep, and it's very thick.
And with the rain that they got this week, they're
not cutting it, so it might be four inches by
(29:57):
you know, come the weekend. Where that the fairways thirty
to thirty two yards wide, pretty forgiving. There's water hazards
in play only on six holes, but there are bunkers,
one hundred and eighteen of them, and they're all pushed up.
Green Complex is well protected by sand. Two par fives,
number five and fifteen. You have the great hazard, which
(30:19):
is at right out here on the plays is number
seven for the members, but it's number fifteen. It's this huge, giant,
you know, bunker that takes up the whole fairway, almost
like similar to Pine Valley's. The one hole they have
at Pine Valley which I think is number seven as well.
The four par threes number three, eight, fourteen, and sixteen,
and they range from one hundred and twenty two yards.
(30:42):
Number fourteen's the shorty up to two hundred and forty yards,
which is number eight. And they got three long par fours,
number eleven, seven and eighteen, seventeen and eighteen.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
That's the finish.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
The two long par fours which for you moose when
you're out here with your buddies playing is number six
is playing as seventeen and number four is playing as eighteen.
So they changed the routing around a little bit, got it.
So the wind direction's going to be in your face
on eighteen. It was different on the practice round and
(31:13):
I see it. It's turned back. I could see the
flag from here. It'll be in their face coming in
on eighteen. It'll be at their back on seventeen.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
Beautiful.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
So there you go the course of course for Erry
Miss the Penn Club. On second, let's be a little tea, let's.
Speaker 8 (31:30):
Do yeah, let's do just a little bit.
Speaker 9 (31:32):
I don't know if you guys saw this, but right
after the Masters, we saw Rory chipping into a washing machine.
He did the same thing when he was younger, so
he was on Jimmy Fallon and they literally said, okay,
let's see if you can still do it, and he
literally just sat there shipping balls into the washing.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
That's where we got our idea from. And we had
Gearhart's a great sponsor.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
For ye.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Mike Powers.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
Yeah, somebody walked away with a nice ride. We're gonna
do that again October twentieth. By the way, just announce
swing it and ding it.
Speaker 8 (32:01):
Mark your calendars, ladies and gentlemen, yes sir. And then
also I saw this, I shout it over to the
UH to the group text.
Speaker 9 (32:09):
There was an emergency landing at Riviera Country Club.
Speaker 8 (32:13):
You see that?
Speaker 9 (32:13):
Did you see that plane coming in? It was so
squarely it was like on two wheels.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
On one wheel, right on number nine.
Speaker 9 (32:19):
And whoever was there, like it looks like probably like
nine fairway was just recording this watching him come in hot. Thankfully,
you know, no injuries, nothing happened. It was a successful landing.
But just you know, hey, when you're up there and
you see a wide open fairway, where else are you
gonna go better than landing?
Speaker 8 (32:35):
You know, middle of a highway.
Speaker 5 (32:37):
I know there was some luck involved there, But I
think that was a pretty darn skilled pilot to keep
that plane from turning over once it hit the ground.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Man.
Speaker 5 (32:44):
That was really it was people out there filming. I'm like,
do you realize this is a plane coming in? Like
there were thin like ten.
Speaker 8 (32:51):
Yards of this content content?
Speaker 4 (32:53):
First, isn't that crazy?
Speaker 9 (32:55):
And then maybe not tea, but I would like to
share just a little bit of this.
Speaker 8 (32:59):
I had a a you know, probably.
Speaker 9 (33:01):
Four am wake up on Tuesday morning. I took the
seven am out of PBI, and as I'm walking through
the airport, I'm like, wait, one golfer, two golfer, three golfers.
There's also a US Open qualifier in Philly this week,
so coming from PBI to Philly, it was a loaded
plane at the seven am time. But one of those
golfers happened to be no other than Patrick Shean. Okay,
(33:22):
just kind of smiled wave Adam in the morning.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
Penn State's Finest.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
Yes, they're and a friend of the show exactly.
Speaker 8 (33:29):
Harry's taking my words from it. It is making my
job easy here.
Speaker 9 (33:32):
So long story short, I get to the kerosel to
get our luggage and he comes up to me and
he goes, My mom loves your show. She listens to
it every Saturday. At the start of her run. Like
everything else, he offered to help me with my luggage.
The kindest kid ever. We walk out there and then
his mom walks up to me and she continues to
say how much she's learning from the show.
Speaker 8 (33:51):
What a fan she is.
Speaker 9 (33:52):
So just wanted to give a shout out to Karen,
the nicest woman ever and a fan of the show.
Speaker 8 (33:57):
So Moose, can we get her some.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
Merch, No problem, it would be my pleasure.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
Awesome.
Speaker 9 (34:03):
Yeah, so thank you for listening to us. We appreciate
you being a fan of the show. She gets some
knowledge from Harry sharing the course of course.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Yeah, that's amazing.
Speaker 8 (34:15):

Speaker 4 (35:44):
All right, let's see the line what do we got here?
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
This is tough for me, it is, and I was talking.
Speaker 8 (35:52):
To wait time out. You gotta share what happened, so
what it can't be tough for you. We know where
you're taking.
Speaker 5 (35:59):
Oh well that's yeah, that's but I was talking to
some people though about, you know, the sort of the
mindset of some of these players this week. Because we
have a major championship coming up next week, as everybody knows,
that's why this golf course is being used, because they're
going to quel Holla for the PGA. And I've been
told that there's certain players in the field that are
(36:20):
just sort of looking at this week no cut, they're
no sweat, They're just sort of going through the motions,
getting ready for next week, more so than maybe going
out to try to win this thing. Now, if they
end up being you know, playing their rear ends off
their first two days, obviously they go and try to
win it. But keep your eye on some of these guys,
you know, as it's going through, if you take if
(36:41):
you start betting as it, you know, as you you watch,
you know I've bet and kind of thing, you're going
to get a feel in these first two days. Who's
really here to win it and who's here just to
kind of get through it, make their check and.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Going to next week.
Speaker 5 (36:54):
So next week, yeah, exactly exactly. But yes, my one
and done pick. I think it's been it's been given
to me by the gods, the golfing gods, because when
I was here on Monday, the one of the first
pros that I ran into, and I ran into him
three times within twenty minutes, was Tommy, Tommy Fleetwood, and
(37:14):
I saw him again today, one of the first guys
I saw, and then I saw him where I could.
He's standing right in front of me. I'm like, I'm
getting a selfie. I don't do selfies. Okay, I don't
even know how to do selfies.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Most of the time.
Speaker 5 (37:25):
I figured it out while he was interviewing with one
of the local TV anchors and I said, hey, Tommy,
I took you this week and when I get a photo,
and he said, sure, boom.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
And I'm telling you.
Speaker 5 (37:36):
This is the week that he breaks through and gets
his win on the PGA Tour.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
Look at that terrific.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
Ironball takes one picture.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
If I recalled.
Speaker 9 (37:46):
He says something about Tommy. A couple of weeks ago,
Harry goes, but Tommy doesn't win. And that's what I
said to Area, I go, wait a second, but hey,
we figured it out, Moose.
Speaker 8 (37:54):
All that needs is a photo.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
That's it. That's it.
Speaker 5 (37:57):
I don't do selfies, but I did one for Tommy
fleet and then I got a.
Speaker 9 (38:00):
Photo of Harry holding up this selfie. I'll have to
put that on the story. It's beautiful.
Speaker 3 (38:05):
If it's any indication the last two guys that leave
the putting green today, it looks like Tony feet Now
and Denny McCarthy were two of the last guys out
there on their putts.
Speaker 8 (38:12):
Tony off for how long Tony was to run out.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Does Danny McCarthy need to practice puttings? I mean, he's
smooth with it.
Speaker 5 (38:22):
And how about all the caddies getting the levels out
on the putting green. They've all got the levels in
the golf bag. They get him out and measure the
you know, left to right, you know whether the break
is one way or the other. But Tony Fleetwood's plus
twenty two hundred at Bett Parks and I'm also taking
him in a matchup at minus one twenty over Henley
and Henley's getting a lot of love this week, and
(38:44):
the fact that they got him favored over Henley tells
me good things too. Plus two hundred and the top ten.
I'm all fleetwooded up. Shane Lowry was another guy I
kind of like plus twenty eight hundred, and you talk
about speef Off of last week hitting the exemption in
here plus twenty eight hundred. He's hitting the driver great
(39:04):
and you know, short game, nobody's better. You're missing greens
around here. He's gonna find a way to get up
and down. Justin Rose was a guy plus five thousand.
He's got the win at Arono Mink years ago in
the the AT and T, and then came back for
the BMW and finished second to Keegan Bradley, and then
one here at Marion in twenty thirteen. So he obviously
(39:27):
loves bent Grass. I think seven of of his big
ten wins ten big wins are on bent Grass greens,
so he loves the northeast.
Speaker 3 (39:36):
Watch out, Yeah, you have Rory waytop of the board
right plus four hundred. Colum work Alis sitting right there.
Xander jt Oberg I like Cantley. I don't know why,
just a a hunch two thousand and I keep going
back to Keegan Bradley at that plus four thousand number,
guy that I don't know, I could just see him
winning a tournament like this.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
I think.
Speaker 3 (39:54):
I don't think there's a like a prep week for
Keeking Bradley. I think anytime he puts the t in
the ground, he's looking to win a go ornament. Yeah,
and I think that's the kind of guy that, like,
you need this week, you.
Speaker 8 (40:02):
Feel like most guys unless you're you know, Brooks.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
Or like.
Speaker 4 (40:08):
Or coming back from injury or something like that. But
how about our guy min wou Lee.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
He was down with our buddy Danny from Angelo's Cooking
making pizza.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
Well, you asked him how the Angelas was it was? Yeah,
he loved it. He loved it. Yes, he loved it.
It's a beautiful thing.
Speaker 8 (40:23):
Wait.
Speaker 9 (40:24):
I want to ask you real quick though, because you
mentioned Speith in on a sponsor's exemption.
Speaker 8 (40:28):
Who are the other two.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
That were in? I got him right here.
Speaker 5 (40:31):
Yeah, it's Keith Mitchell, Okay, Gary Woodland and Ricky Fowler.
Speaker 9 (40:35):
Yeah, and so that's what we're talking about, right, So
I put it on story. The other day we saw
Eric and Royan saying they asked him, you know, because
he had a grind to get in, and they said,
what do you think about this? He goes, how honest
do you want me to be and proceeded to say,
I think the best fields are the largest fields where
everybody can play, because there's you know, the ongoing debate
where it's the top seventy.
Speaker 8 (40:53):
How does anybody break into that? Or a cycle? But
then when you see these sponsors exemptions.
Speaker 9 (40:58):
It is names like Speeth Yep, you know, Ricky Fowler, Woodland,
Keith Mitchell. It's not like it's you know, anybody that
maybe is like really hot. Like I liked when exemptions
used to be like, hey, this guy on Cornfairy just won,
he's hot right now.
Speaker 8 (41:13):
He deserves an exemption.
Speaker 9 (41:14):
He lives in Philly, Like Harry Higgs isn't playing great
right now, but imagine Harry Higgs out here Billy krowd
following him. They would, you know, probably sell seven hundred
more tickets at least. Yeah, Like I miss kind of
when sponsors exemptions were a little bit like that, But
just wanted to kind of point that out because.
Speaker 5 (41:32):
I did see Eric Finn absolutely and then we had
Day Withdrew with a neck problem. I believe Jason Day
Billy Horsel's out because he's getting his hip operated on
out in Colorado and expects to be back by the
end of the summer. So it doesn't sound like a
major procedure. It sounds like maybe good get a little
cleaned up, maybe a labor missue. I don't know, he's
not getting a hip replacement.
Speaker 9 (41:53):
You know, well nowadays they have literally that's why he's
probably going to that certain specific doctor and it's like, okay,
they go in, it's real quick, it's it's minor.
Speaker 8 (42:00):
They try to fix your issue.
Speaker 9 (42:01):
And then you rehab for a little bit in your
back out to getting your wisdom teeth up.
Speaker 2 (42:04):
Amazing, really amazing.
Speaker 3 (42:06):
We're getting our first look here on YouTube with the
creator Classic. It was great to see that, you know,
first fairway as guys just teet off. This his interviews
from a couple of minutes ago, but they just showed
the first group go off.
Speaker 4 (42:15):
It looks absolutely beautiful.
Speaker 5 (42:16):
Oh yeah, I love the complex on that first hole,
which is number eight.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
It's so cool.
Speaker 5 (42:22):
It's like a three hundred and sixty yard hole. So
you know, these guys are probably hitting on irons. A
lot of irons off that first g but what a
cool green complex. The biggest plays on the one and
Done apparently are Xander Chawflet, Victor Hobland and Justin Rose
and j T. Really but Cory Connors. Cory Connors is
(42:44):
a guy to watch. I already used him, so I can't.
But if I didn't already use him, I would seriously.
Speaker 2 (42:49):
Look at him this week.
Speaker 8 (42:50):
Really.
Speaker 5 (42:51):
Yeah, he likens this place to Canada. Apparently, was playing
off the fairways the bent Grass and said, man, this
reminds me of a summer in Canada.
Speaker 3 (42:59):
Like Jerry at home, it feels very at home. Feel good,
I feel at home. We saw some of our great
Legacy club members. We saw some great nineteen twelve club members,
some of our friends listeners to the podcast just walking
around powers. Where are we going to be set up
on Friday? Different locations? So if you're coming out on Friday,
we're an independent square.
Speaker 4 (43:16):
Is that what it's called?
Speaker 2 (43:17):
Correct? Independent square?
Speaker 4 (43:18):
We're going to be right next to your favorite place,
the merch store. Hey, but how about this.
Speaker 3 (43:23):
We've got an inside information that the Powers that Be
did not let the Philly Cricket logo on the merch
which could not have been a bigger miss in the world.
Speaker 4 (43:32):
Yea, that will cost them some serious sales, right.
Speaker 9 (43:37):
But they did tell us they're using the alternate logo,
so like the one with the arc like around it,
and he said they can use that, and then the
other one's just going to be that truest with like
the crown with a little golf ball on top. But
what a miss, right, But they actually they buy out
the pro shops so then they have control, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
Sure, they're also their copy in our style. They got
some Philly golf stuff in there. Oh yeah really yeah.
Speaker 8 (43:59):
Yeah it was you would have slop with a copyright infringement.
Speaker 2 (44:01):
Yeah, let's get it.
Speaker 4 (44:03):
You should have done that.
Speaker 8 (44:04):
Wow, is going on?
Speaker 5 (44:05):
Jeff knows some lawyers.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
Get back here, bof there. Let's go.

ding it.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Yeah, you know, just I guess it's gonna go out
there and try to swing it and ding it. All right,
Hello and welcome to Swing it and Ding It live
from the Truest Championship on this beautiful Creator Classic Wednesday
at What I like to say is, you know, offense
to other courses in Philadelphia, at my favorite golf.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Course in the area, how you're shaking your head. Don't
know why you're shaking.
Speaker 5 (00:51):
A hand now, because I knew that was coming. I mean,
it's sort of the obligatory sign on now these days.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
But I got the hat on too too.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
What I'll tell you is, though I didn't recognize the
place because you know, obviously, when when a tournament like
this is going on, there's a lot going on, and uh,
you know, just getting in here was was crazy. And
once I came around to what Harry now told me
is number five. I was like, okay, now I have
my bearings, but we are happy to be here. This
is Moose along with May's and Matthews. We are sponsored
(01:19):
by Bette Parks. We'll talk about that more when we
see the line. And our friends from Buy My Balls.
I wonder if these creators have used by My balls.
They look like they're gonna need some today on this course.
And we have a special guest with us today, Brooke
Golf from GoF law firm Brook, Welcome to Swinging Day.
Speaker 6 (01:34):
Thinks so much fun.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Did you bring the weather today?
Speaker 6 (01:37):
I did?
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Well.
Speaker 7 (01:38):
I'm from Connecticut, so the weather's been just as bad
there as here. You brought the weather for me, and
I appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
It's terrific today.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Yeah, so there's so much we want to talk about.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
You know, we'll talk about the tournament a little bit,
get your insights, but but you are what we like
to refer extremely affectionately, a golf Sico like us I am,
and we love we love talking to Goicos.
Speaker 7 (01:59):
I left my wife to come to this and there
was a fight before. So yeah, definitely have a.
Speaker 8 (02:03):
Golf We meet Wednesdays at six pm.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Yeah, so you'll have to send me if you can
zoom in.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
I'm all in on that perfect talk about your when
when you were a bit by the golf bug and
uh what that's turned didn't.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Do for you?
Speaker 6 (02:17):
So my store is actually pretty interesting golf journey we
call it.
Speaker 7 (02:21):
Yeah. So I was a softball player and then most golfers,
a lot of women, especially were I went to college.
Speaker 6 (02:28):
I did.
Speaker 7 (02:29):
I was playing D one softball for a little while
and I got diagnosed with type one diabetes and that
changed my life quite a bit. And you know, softball
was a little difficult to play. So I found golf,
and golf is a slower paced sport which allows somebody
with something like type one diabetes to manage it on course,
(02:51):
and golf has I am so upset I didn't find
it earlier. I'm thankful for diabetes. I know nobody says that,
but then I found it later. But I've been playing
since I was about I don't know if since I
was about twenty five, twenty six.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Okay, yeah, okay, that's incredible.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
So talk about what you do and how that allows
you to kind of take advantage of this game and
get out there more often.
Speaker 7 (03:12):
Well, I knew nobody was going to allow me to
have no business. No boss was going to allow me
to take any days off that I wanted. So I
knew it was on my own, on my own canoe, right.
So I started Golf Law Group in twenty seventeen, and
I started it at my kitchen table. I drove for
Uber and Lyft so I could pay payroll at nights.
I didn't take a paycheck for almost three and a
(03:32):
half years, and then it was literally built at my
table with one attorney and one other employee. And now
twenty twenty five, we have just about seventy employees with
eighteen lawyers, fifteen of which are women, which is which
is pretty great in the litigation space. And like I said,
(03:55):
I'm the boss, so they know if I'm.
Speaker 6 (03:58):
Not in where I am at.
Speaker 7 (04:00):
Actually, between the months of April and November and between
after that they question where I am. But now they've
realized I found virtual golf as well, so they know
where I'm at.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
Is one of the requirements to work in your firm
to at least appreciate golf ready.
Speaker 6 (04:14):
So such a good question I have, I have.
Speaker 7 (04:18):
We've bought golf sets for some of the employees. Very interested.
We have corporate memberships at TPC in Connecticut and Cromwell.
We have corporate membership at Tumblebrook in West Harford, Connecticut.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
But I need to go to law school, I'm going
to tell you.
Speaker 7 (04:38):
So we're in the in an expansion process for the
next eighteen months. And in that expansion space is going
to be a golf simulator where we will have tournaments.
I have one of my house. We'll have tournaments.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
I know. Listen, SICKO, is.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
It you're talking to the right people.
Speaker 8 (04:52):
We're all sending our resumes over.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Now what are the hours?
Speaker 7 (04:56):
I mean, if you can play in a tournament, the
hours can be variable, right.
Speaker 6 (04:59):
But I'm the person that will sit up.
Speaker 7 (05:01):
At ten at night and be like, did I eat
enough tonight with the diabetes that I can get down
there and just just three chip shots and I come
up at eleven thirty, you know, and it's like maybe
I need to have a second meal. But yeah, golf
is definitely a passion, and being an attorney is a
competitive drive for you know, for something to do as
far as work, and we bring it. I would argue
(05:22):
we are the best attorneys in the state of Connecticut.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Hands down.
Speaker 7 (05:25):
You don't grow a business in seven years and end
up where we are to if you're not doing the
right things. But a big part for me of my downtime,
my mental health time, is golf. And when I talk
to people and associates, I tell them get involved in
the sport. It's so good for your mental health. It's
so oh most of the times change.
Speaker 6 (05:45):
Most of the time.
Speaker 7 (05:45):
I mean, you know Mulligan's breakfast balls. If you're amongst friends, yeah,
you know, yeah, who's really counting. And it's great for business,
it's well so we have the corporate memberships. I my
community outreach, so we do thirty five golf tournaments a year.
We sponsor so and it's all different charities all throughout Connecticut.
And it's such a really cool thing to be able
to do and give back. And I bring, you know,
(06:07):
our clients.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
I bring a lot of vendors.
Speaker 7 (06:09):
That we deal with, doctors, and we go out and
we play and we make up the teams. We won
one on Sunday actually for juvenile diabetes, two hundred and
forty nine golfers and we've got in the room and
we're like seventeen underwon it, but we'll take it.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Yeah, but yeah, there's been a lot of crazy numbers.
That's a fair, honest win. I appreciate that.
Speaker 7 (06:27):
I mean so funny. We went to there's a course
at Mohegan Sun. It's not I mean, it's not the best.
Don't make the trip to Connecticut there. I'll take you
a few courses you should play in Connecticut. But you know,
so we were there and it was like that, but
it was rain for days. Finally the sun wasn't even
really up. We go over there to a tournament for
the Connecticut Sun and last year and we're I mean,
(06:49):
we were a good team. We finished maybe fifteen under,
and I mean it was a miracle.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
Because it was so bad.
Speaker 7 (06:56):
The conditions were off and the sand bunkers were like
roped off, don't just pick your pall.
Speaker 6 (07:00):
But when on the other side of it was bad.
Speaker 7 (07:01):
But anyways, we get in the court, we get in
the clubhouse and I'm like, we have a shot.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
I think maybe twenty seven under.
Speaker 7 (07:08):
I'm like, Tiger, Rory and Bryson came out here and
that's the only way.
Speaker 6 (07:13):
Where are they? Where are they?
Speaker 7 (07:14):
And it's this table of these maybe seventy something sitting
there all innocently and nobody's going to say anything to them,
right and maybe like to each their own. But I'm
like to do this course in twenty seven. I mean,
oh yeah, somebody's hitting three fifty. Yeah, somebody setting three fifty,
and somebody's one hundred yard game is falling like six
inches from the pen.
Speaker 8 (07:33):
That's the only way it's you play from the junior season.
Speaker 7 (07:36):
Yeah, exactly like the junior junior ones, right, but or
there's an air cannon on every hole and you're buying
the five foot putt.
Speaker 6 (07:44):
Yeah, No, it's Connecticut's good place.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
To play off.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
Talk about you know, the women's in power. You're talking
to a data four daughters. You're talking to Danielle who
just had her first daughter.
Speaker 8 (07:53):
Oh congratulations, and have an all female run business.
Speaker 6 (07:56):
Awesome thing.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
I know a lot of ones.
Speaker 6 (07:59):
That's fairy. You're surrounded by two of them right now.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
But I'll tell you what. Harry plays with his wife
all the time.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
He is the biggest proponent of the LPGA, total covers
it more on the show than anybody. So just talk
about that in the game of golf and what you're seeing, right, now,
and to me, what is an incredible just expansion and
explosion for women in the game of golf.
Speaker 7 (08:18):
So we can be honest on here, right, So the
biggest issue with women's LPGA is the lack of media coverage.
You have women's basketball right now that's blowing up, and
we're seeing it blow up, and then the media is adapting, right,
so we're crawling.
Speaker 6 (08:35):
Little by little.
Speaker 7 (08:36):
If the PGA tournaments are on, sometimes you need a
special package with your television to even see the LPGA stuff. Right,
And there's some women out there, I'm sorry, they're playing
just as well as the men on the PGA.
Speaker 6 (08:48):
I mean they are. It's not about how far I
hit the ball. We all know that.
Speaker 7 (08:51):
The instancy, yeah, and it's like they just can't miss
and it's you know, so I think that the biggest
It's such an exciting time too. And I spoke to
Anica Sorenston last year at Tahoe and I said, how
do we get more women in the game? And she agreed,
she goes, you know, just it's a great sport. We
just have to educate them, you know, teach them the game,
teach them the game. I think that when the media
(09:14):
covers the LPGA events. That's what's happening when you're watching them,
you're learning the game.
Speaker 6 (09:20):
I do think that the commentators need work.
Speaker 7 (09:23):
I think they commentators speak to the people as if
they're women, and that turns if I tend to think
of myself, I'm very educated in the sport. I want
to be spoken to the same way you're going to
speak to a man on the PGA tour. I do,
and the commentators are very like, yay, we and I'm like,
I don't want that. Give me the hard fast roll.
She shanked it out of the bunker. Call it for
(09:44):
what it is. Now, let's like get down on her.
They talk about how she like needs to.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
Overcome that pot. Yes, they coddled, and it's like, I
didn't want to watch that hat So you know what
we do.
Speaker 7 (09:54):
I have a one and a half year old daughter,
twelve year old son. Waited a while one and a
half year old daughter. I mute it and I watch
it and I'm like, Okay, if something big happens, I mean,
I'll catch it. But the commentators need work. It's like
the same people that are commentating for the PGA need
to be commentating for the LPGA. I just I don't
understand the wise and if you watch women's sports, it's
(10:16):
very similar except basketball.
Speaker 6 (10:18):
Basketball has gotten a lot better.
Speaker 8 (10:19):
Just throw Dottie on the broadcast the LPGA bronte.
Speaker 7 (10:23):
Who wants to listen or watch it when they're treating
it like it's like like pink versus blue, like but
find the middle ground. And I think that's your biggest weakness.
I think the commentating these work, and I think that,
I mean, sponsors need to step up. Women are not
worth twenty five percent of what met are worth. If
you have a woman on the tour that is winning
(10:44):
and is doing everything that a man on the tour
is doing, you need to reward them. You need to
set a standard, and you need to throw money at
what it is so you encourage other women who are
sitting in school now saying, oh, well, if all i
can make, if all I can make is a million bucks,
if I'm on the tour, can go create content and
make ten million dollars, what are you doing?
Speaker 9 (11:04):
Yeah, definitely room for improvement, but there has been positive
upper Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
They're definitely and I think it takes it takes.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
It takes a Nelly Quarta. I think, you know, Caitlyn Clark.
Speaker 7 (11:14):
I think you need like you have a Nellie. So yeah,
you know that's the thing because Nelly's I mean more Lexi.
She's so fun to watch. Yeah, and it's like I
feel like, but the problem is, I feel like if
you ask a lot of women, they don't know who
she is. And that's every woman knows who Kaitlin Clark is.
Most will say eighty percent that you'll find I'd say
maybe fifteen percent. No Nellie and I would say yeah,
(11:37):
And you know that is the media coverage. That is
the coverage. But I agree with you, yes, increase in
the purses. But it's like nobody's doing you know, we
live in a country. Nobody's doing things slowly. Somebody needs
to step up. This is Nike's chance, Reboxes, somebody's Adidas.
Somebody stop selling shirts and step up and pay these
people and then it's going to work its way out.
It's like nobody's crawling the way we're at a crawl. It's
(12:00):
like nobody wants to crawl. Somebody dropped the hammer and
set a standard and let everybody else follow.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
No doubt, no doubt.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
All right, well, let's get your your thoughts on this
tournament we are at today. You have you watch a
lot of golf, you consume McAll, you got a lot
of tournaments. We talked a little bit before about some
of the players. Who can you see uh walking away
with a beautiful cricket?
Speaker 4 (12:19):
You see the cricket paddle?
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Is it a paddle?
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Yeah? Who can you see walking away with?
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Well?
Speaker 7 (12:25):
Hold on, So I would say this is Harmon's tournament
to win.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
I do it's his game. I think he played this.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
This course is short in some regard, and it's gonna
be hard for a lot of these guys that are
used to playing these longer courses.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
To play seventy one hundred right par seven years? What
it's playing.
Speaker 7 (12:41):
It's gonna play a lot like Travelers Championship in Connecticut.
Does it's gonna play a lot like TPC there?
Speaker 6 (12:46):
I think it's harm at.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
Harmon's due, I especially if we get bad weather.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
He's great in the bad weather.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
Yeah, he he needs to stay in his shots in
that second guess himself, and he'll win this tournament all day.
I think more Cow is due. I don't know if
this is his tournament. I think he's due, And I
love Shane Lowry, who doesn't right, He's one of my favorites.
I think he hits a long ball and I don't think.
I don't know how he's going to do here, but
I can tell you it's Harmon's Harmon's tournament to lose.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
He hits it straight too off the t Harmon problem.
Speaker 6 (13:18):
And how great is he playing this year? So fun
to watch.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Yeah, he's always at the top of the board. It's crazy.
Speaker 9 (13:25):
So you talked about Connecticut golf, but I do have
to ask you. We're sitting here in Philly. What have
you played in Philly?
Speaker 8 (13:31):
And what is your top course in the area.
Speaker 6 (13:33):
Well, I thought they were going to ask me to
play this before I came out here. No, I don't
have a tee.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
I know.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
I'm waiting for the invite.
Speaker 7 (13:41):
You know, somebody's got an not show. Somebod's gonna get
sick from the food tonight. Something's gonna happen.
Speaker 6 (13:44):
They'll call me. But I have not played in Philly.
Can you believe it? Nope, I have not played.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
We'll change that.
Speaker 7 (13:50):
I have not played in Philly. I did just share though,
I'm going to Cabot Links in Nova Scotia this summer,
which I'm looking forward to. But I definitely want to
take a little tour around you know Jersey, you know Philly,
parts of Philly and really play some of these courses.
Speaker 6 (14:06):
Virginia has some nice course.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
What's your favorite course you've played?
Speaker 7 (14:10):
You're gonna ask me that question. Honestly, this is gonna be,
this is gonna sound. So my favorite course that I
played and my favorite course are two different things, right.
So my favorite course that I've played, like once was
the Monument Course in Arizona. We went down for the
Waste Management Tournament. We played that before it started, which
was great, but nothing beat the true Monument Course. It
was amazing. My favorite course to play, though, in Connecticut
(14:34):
is a municipal course. I belong to all these expensive
court TPC rock Ledge Golf Course in West Startford.
Speaker 6 (14:39):
Oh wow, it is my I know it is my
favorite course.
Speaker 7 (14:43):
Every time you go out there, it's just it's a
challenging course. There's holes that are straight, longer, they don't
get and I hit about a two hundred and forty
yard drive, so I hit a longer ball, and I
just find the courses are all too short for women.
I'm on every green and two. Even if it's par five,
you know rock Ledge, it's you can't. It's challenging. I mean,
(15:05):
it's got its moments. But I hit a my driver's
two forty and my three, which about two fifteen. So
when you put those two together, it's very difficult to
find a course that's that's fun for women, or you
play the men's you have to go to the other t's.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Yeah, yeah, do you ever play shn a cosset that's
one of my favorite.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
Yeah, that's that's a block from Yeah, I do.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
I love it. It's Donald Ross.
Speaker 6 (15:27):
I didn't it didn't.
Speaker 7 (15:29):
I wasn't super I'm sorry, I wasn't super impressive. I
find TPC everybody wants to talk about to be TPC
is super duper duper short.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Oh yeah, Cromwell, yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
Mean I know they were they were dogging, you know,
some of the golfers for you know, calling it out
for being super short.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
But yeah, it is.
Speaker 6 (15:50):
It's just short for me and I see where their
teas are.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
It looks like a flat back nine though, like with
that drivable par four.
Speaker 7 (15:56):
And you know, I gotta tell you so the last
holes of part four at the team, have you been yes, okay, yes,
Tony final last year, so upset he was not playing
the way he wanted to be playing.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
He stands up there.
Speaker 7 (16:08):
He hits I can tell you he was within eighty
of the pin and it's he just was like, what
do I have to lose?
Speaker 6 (16:15):
It's the last thing. I've never seen a human. I don't.
I know these long drive guys, I've never seen a
human that plays in the He hit the ball.
Speaker 7 (16:23):
You could hear it still echo from when he hit
the ball. We're all sitting in the in the corporate
box and the thing lands. I'm like, tell me, he
shank the first shot and that's the second shot.
Speaker 6 (16:33):
I mean, but it's short. That's the problem. That was
short too, though.
Speaker 5 (16:37):
Yeah, it is kind of short. You play it got
to play from the backs, but it's still short.
Speaker 8 (16:40):
I think it's fun though, when some guys can reach
the green.
Speaker 7 (16:43):
Yeah, it's so fun to watch. But especially when you're
watching the pros. But when you're playing, like you want
to want more challenge. I want more of a challenge. Yeah,
like I don't. I want to bogey holes and get
really mad about it. I want to I want to
three puts some holes and get really goull about it.
We have to, but you know it's it's rock Ledge,
is my answer. And and they'll love me for this.
(17:03):
I pay West harfor enough taxes they should throw me
a bone here. But it is my favorite and for
a municipal course, I hold it up against any course
in the state of Panatica at.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Least preferred tea times or something.
Speaker 8 (17:13):
Yeah, you get even give me that.
Speaker 6 (17:15):
And the women's group, so I get that.
Speaker 8 (17:16):
But I think powers clipped this for you and send
it over.
Speaker 7 (17:20):
I'm gonna be I'm gonna send it to Josh and
be like, here you go. When's my team know we
belong to Tumblebrook.
Speaker 6 (17:24):
That's a fun course.
Speaker 7 (17:25):
It's a it's a that's longer, okay, But it's just
as a as the same problem. These guys probably have
a finding courses on their off time to to play
if they're local somewhere, because they're not.
Speaker 6 (17:36):
That's the that's the issue I have is they're just
not long enough.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
You ever play Yale?
Speaker 6 (17:41):
I played great? Yeah, great, beautiful, something great river, great neck.
That's a hard okay, okay for women and that that
might be where you plays.
Speaker 5 (17:50):
I don't know, Yes, obviously, it's new Haven, but it's
an old school golf course that you're trying to bring back,
and it's supposed to be fantastic.
Speaker 7 (17:56):
And somebody talks about I went to Quinnipiac. Oh there,
somebody talk to me about this. Somebody day it's it's
a new.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
Was talking about it.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Yes, he was.
Speaker 7 (18:06):
I'm on the Quinnipia board and somebody was talking about this,
this this course.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
But I will tell you this.
Speaker 7 (18:12):
There is a course owned by its Sacred Heart owns
it a university in Connecticut. I think it's a great
river something like that. It is challenging, the most challenging course,
Like so challenging that I sit there afterwards and I'm.
Speaker 6 (18:26):
Like, I don't want to play tomorrow. I need a
day off.
Speaker 7 (18:29):
I need a mental health day and then I need
to call my therapist for three hour session.
Speaker 6 (18:33):
It's it's it's tough one.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
And then you go back on Thursday.
Speaker 6 (18:36):
I still go back the next day. I just have
the therapy later in the day.

Speaker 4 (19:08):
But we are back.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
It is moments away from the tea times for the
Creator Classic. They are lined up right in front of us,
right here, getting on their golf carts. Just saw Claire Hogle.
We've got Josh Richard Richards right here. We were able
to chat with Page briefly.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
Daniel a lot of very very very.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Little Philly info knowledge. Hasn't played here, hasn't had a
cheese steak. This is just she's just been helicoptered in it.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Does she look like she's had cheese steaks? No, No,
no she doesn't.
Speaker 5 (19:40):
It's a great point, you know what I mean, Like, yeah,
she's probably not going to it.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
That's the kind of insights that we.
Speaker 8 (19:45):
Come to expect from Harry from Dance.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
That's a great point.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Thank you, Harry.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
But we saw our friend Chad Mums behind this operation,
the greatest idea ever that everyone has now stolen.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
Good for you, Chad.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
That's how you know imitation is the greatest one, the flattery, Harry.
But I'll tell you what, though these guys are out
there grinding, right, they don't there's a lot of cameras,
there's a lot of people. They don't want to go
out there and just hit it around like they're looking
to play good golf.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (20:10):
And Kyle Lowry, who's got one of the teams out here,
of course, former Cardinal Doherty, great great at villan nova uh,
six time All Star in the NBA, is concluding his
career with the Sixers. He's won an NBA championship, he's
won a Golden Medal. I mean, think about what he's
done in basketball. He's out here grinding.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
This is his club, and he's here all the time.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
We got a local guy here. We got ac Country
Club's Josh Kelly.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Josh Kelly, the trick shot guy.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Right all right, Josh, come on, baby, get it done, Josh,
come on, let's go local, bring it home, let's go.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
That's right.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
But I mean the Kyle Lowry is a great in
basketball and he loves golf and he's out here grinding
on the putting green for this event.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
He doesn't want to go out and embarrass himself either, No,
especially at his own club. Now.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Now, Claire Hogle is a is a very popular player
here today, to say the least.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Yeah, I don't understand. I don't get it. Frank.
Speaker 9 (21:12):
Yeah, well, Moose, you and I were sitting there and
we were were standing there. We were watching Page hit
quite a few shots. Yeah, we watched her hit Driver.
Then we were watching her hit Iron and she literally
turned to her cat and She's like, I keep chunking it.
But I'm like, there's people. There's how many people just
Page you can have a photo a photo and it's
like there, it might even be more than a PGA
tour player.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
And she accommodates.
Speaker 8 (21:33):
She does, she does.
Speaker 9 (21:34):
She's so kind, so nice, and you know she's just
turning around taking photos with everybody. But I said to Moose,
I said, wow, that that must be tough, just sitting
there and knowing you know, you're a creator. Do I
belong here? A blase blah? And then you have five
thousand people standing behind you, yelling your name, trying to
get a photo and watching you hit balls.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
And she got a great golf swing, she does.
Speaker 9 (21:53):
Yeah, absolutely, you know, but you chunk one, and you
know that's the only thing people remember did.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
And we also we saw Jim Smith, the great Jim
Smith from here at Philly Cricket Club.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
It was awesome to talk to him.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
He is the CEO director at Golf and the funny
party was like, I don't know anything to do.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
They came in here and they just took over. They
take the place over. But we did get some insights
from him.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Everyone listen in lean in here because we asked him,
we said, this is your course. You see these guys,
you know how it's set up. What do you think
is gonna happen out here? He's predicting a score in
the low twenties.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Yeah, I said, twenty two under was my.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
He said he could see it if it starts to
get tough, because he said they've tried to get the
greens are not as firm as they want them to
be right.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Now because of the water the rain.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Yeah, yep, he said, but if they if it does
tough enough, he said, maybe it goes into the teens,
the low teens when he season in twenty so great
insights from from the great Jim Smith, former guest to
swing It and ding It, and the host of this
fantastic event here today.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Yeah, they got to hope that it dries out a
little bit.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
I know they're expecting some rain on Friday again, I believe,
But if they get, you know, some wins to kick
up on the weekend and you know, maybe they could
keep that number in the teams.
Speaker 9 (23:02):
And they're already planning ahead, he told Mouse and I.
He's like, we already. They already changed the tea times
to have them going on three some days, right.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Yeah, started eleven oh nine on Thursday morning. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Yeah, beautiful, beautiful.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
So all right, let's talk about this tournament, right we
You know, we talked about seventy one hundred part seventy,
talking a little bit about the scores.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
I don't think we're going to see it.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Yeah, thirty one under two fifty three like Scotti last week?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
No, how about that?
Speaker 3 (23:29):
I mean you sent me the numbers that they did
on Sunday and I was shocked because that tournament was
over by Friday.
Speaker 5 (23:34):
Well, there was nothing else on there was no NBA
until nighttime. There was no NHL until nighttime. I know
the Phillies played at like two in the afternoon, but yeah,
they really had nothing going up against it. But I
was still curious because it was such a runaway. But
it shows you one thing. People love to see dominance.
They love to seek greatness, they do.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
You know.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
It's like, you know, I'm not comparing him to Tiger Woods.
He's as close maybe to Tiger Woods, as we've gotten
since Tiger Woods.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
That's that I will say.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
But when Tiger Woods was running away with tournaments, people
couldn't turn the television off. It's something about just seeing
a guy just making birdies and just blowing away the
field that is compelling.
Speaker 8 (24:14):
Do you know what it was like the Super Bowl?
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (24:17):
Right right, Yeah, looks like do I even want to
finish watching? Yeah, Like, there's no way this thing and
any other way. He could have bogied the last like seven.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Holes, right and still it didn't matter. Yeah, I saw.
Speaker 5 (24:30):
I watched a good bit of it, and that I
don't know if you saw the shot on nine he
hit his T shot. It's a par five, and he
hit his T shot into a fairway bunker that had
kind of had a lip on it. It wasn't one of
those flat ones you see in Florida, right, it had
a lip on it. He hits a three iron out
of the fairway bunker to about fifteen feet and stopped it.
(24:51):
And I was just I'm texting with people. I'm like,
did you see that? And then he made and then
he made eagle. He made the putt for eagle. It's
just like, you know, he's a hey by six shots
and he's still trying to fire it pins out of
fairway bunkers with three irons and makes an eagle.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Believe it really was anything else stand out for me
from from last week. It's tough to talk about anything
other than Scotty, but anything else to any other guys
you see trending in the right direction.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Jordan Speed Yeah, yeah, yeah, we just saw Yeah.
Speaker 8 (25:18):
But do you think it was his hometown?
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Wait?
Speaker 9 (25:20):
Actually, time out, Let's circle back to Scotty, because I
remember we talked about this and You're like, no, something's wrong, Da,
Da da, And I was like, nothing's wrong.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
He's just I thought he was still injured. Still, I
still thought he had a we're talking about Scheffler.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
Right, yeah, I thought it was the weight of expectation.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
You thought I thought it was the injury and said, wait,
it's fine.
Speaker 5 (25:41):
And now, of course he skips this week. I know,
which is he's a bummer. Yeah, it really is over.
Speaker 9 (25:46):
But yeah, but Jordan' speed also, they were saying, like,
homes out almost just barely made the cut.
Speaker 5 (25:50):
Yeah yeah, and then you show what shot? What's sixty
two on Sunday? He went out early, and you know
he's in here this week on a sponsors exemption.
Speaker 8 (25:58):
You're giving him some swing tips out there?
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Absolutely, Yeah. I was teaching him how to hit that
fore iron.
Speaker 5 (26:02):
You know, Harry looked like a coach out there.
Speaker 8 (26:08):
He's standing right behind him the classic arms crossed.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Well, I know what to do.
Speaker 9 (26:12):
I'm not saying you don't, you know, moves it. I
just stood back admired you. You know, it was beautiful,
giving some uh some intel.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
I was hanging there with George on the yeah on.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
The range wins this week. You know, Harry gets.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
Beehive of activity out there. It is here now, I mean,
and you know we talked about this too, right. They
they had to get a pro am in today and
then turn around and have to create a classic, right,
I mean, they couldn't have got a better day today
for this. It's absolutely beautiful out here. It's great to
see the whistle Hick and course as it is. It
took me a second to get oriented and figure out
(26:48):
where I was, but now now I can kind of
see back towards the clubhouse.
Speaker 4 (26:50):
Where we are.
Speaker 8 (26:51):
Now, there's just so much going on you can't They
don't allow you to walk on the cart path.
Speaker 9 (26:55):
That has to change tomorrow because there's not but right
now the amount of carts out here. They had to
because like you said in the tournament pro a, I'm
now the creator classic. They you know, have to get
people like me a ride. They're all over the place.
But they actually have the amount of volunteers out here.
They have like a path patrol that are making sure
that you do not step a foot on the get
on the grass, gend watch the tram car.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
They're the purple shirts.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
But isn't it amazing how the buildout changes your viewpoint.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Front of the golf course.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Yeah, it's insane.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Yeah, I mean, especially a place like this that's so
pure and like so wide open, you can see so
much And now you can't, right, You're you're kind of
blocked out by the grand stands and all the facilities
they have up here. So it really changes the entire
look of the golf course. And I'll tell you what
when you look, when you look out, it is the
most beautiful pure golf course.
Speaker 8 (27:43):
Waits the heck and creek we saw running through.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
Yeah, I'm looking now looking back up over here when
you come back around to that short part three, and
it's just I mean the people that live right there
along that they have a great view this week, I.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Mean eight and nine.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
Yeah, yeah, great holes which is number one and two
this week.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
That's right, that's right. Yeah, that's because they finishing home absolutely.
Speaker 8 (28:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Why is that why, Well, they can't have the buildout
out there's no room by theeenthole is finishing?
Speaker 4 (28:12):
Is that playing eleven?
Speaker 2 (28:13):
It's playing number eleven?
Speaker 4 (28:15):
Correct?
Speaker 3 (28:15):
Okay, I mean that is the greatest, one of the
greatest finishing holes.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
So Harry, let's talk.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
We've we talked about the course of course, but we
didn't do it officially. Give us a couple of highlights
of what people are going to be able to kind
of tune into and see when they're when they're choosing
their TV coverage here all right.
Speaker 5 (28:30):
This place, I think is going to look spectacular on
television two, which would be cool. It's the oldest country
club in the United States, and Aw Tilling has it's
his masterpiece. Back in nineteen twenty two. He loved the
play so much that his ashes were actually scattered on
the property somewhere around the eighteenth Green and that creek,
the little babbling brook that rolls through there. Of course,
(28:53):
he did Bethpage Black, he did Baltus Rawl, Wingfoot, Ridgewood,
some of the finest old school country clubs in the Northeast.
And Keith Foster came in here in twenty thirteen and
restored it. They were gonna do it in twenty eight
and then the economy tanked, so they had to put
it off until twenty thirteen. And they took down all
these trees and you know, brought the bunkers back to
(29:15):
the way Aw had them. And they were doing that
in preparation for the twenty sixteen Constellation, which was the
Senior Tour event that Bernhard Langer won here back a
few years ago. Pars seventy seven and nineteen yards and
plays short for these guys page the average green size
fifty eight hundred square feet. They're bent grass greens. You know,
(29:36):
some of these guys you start looking at turning to wager.
There are certain guys in the field that really love
putting on bent grass greens. You got to find some
of those guys. But the fairways are also bent. The
roughest fescue I was out in it on Monday. It's
over three inches thick or deep, and it's very thick.
And with the rain that they got this week, they're
not cutting it, so it might be four inches by
(29:57):
you know, come the weekend. Where that the fairways thirty
to thirty two yards wide, pretty forgiving. There's water hazards
in play only on six holes, but there are bunkers,
one hundred and eighteen of them, and they're all pushed up.
Green Complex is well protected by sand. Two par fives,
number five and fifteen. You have the great hazard, which
(30:19):
is at right out here on the plays is number
seven for the members, but it's number fifteen. It's this huge, giant,
you know, bunker that takes up the whole fairway, almost
like similar to Pine Valley's. The one hole they have
at Pine Valley which I think is number seven as well.
The four par threes number three, eight, fourteen, and sixteen,
and they range from one hundred and twenty two yards.
(30:42):
Number fourteen's the shorty up to two hundred and forty yards,
which is number eight. And they got three long par fours,
number eleven, seven and eighteen, seventeen and eighteen.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
That's the finish.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
The two long par fours which for you moose when
you're out here with your buddies playing is number six
is playing as seventeen and number four is playing as eighteen.
So they changed the routing around a little bit, got it.
So the wind direction's going to be in your face
on eighteen. It was different on the practice round and
(31:13):
I see it. It's turned back. I could see the
flag from here. It'll be in their face coming in
on eighteen. It'll be at their back on seventeen.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
Beautiful.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
So there you go the course of course for Erry
Miss the Penn Club. On second, let's be a little tea, let's.
Speaker 8 (31:30):
Do yeah, let's do just a little bit.
Speaker 9 (31:32):
I don't know if you guys saw this, but right
after the Masters, we saw Rory chipping into a washing machine.
He did the same thing when he was younger, so
he was on Jimmy Fallon and they literally said, okay,
let's see if you can still do it, and he
literally just sat there shipping balls into the washing.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
That's where we got our idea from. And we had
Gearhart's a great sponsor.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
For ye.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Mike Powers.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
Yeah, somebody walked away with a nice ride. We're gonna
do that again October twentieth. By the way, just announce
swing it and ding it.
Speaker 8 (32:01):
Mark your calendars, ladies and gentlemen, yes sir. And then
also I saw this, I shout it over to the
UH to the group text.
Speaker 9 (32:09):
There was an emergency landing at Riviera Country Club.
Speaker 8 (32:13):
You see that?
Speaker 9 (32:13):
Did you see that plane coming in? It was so
squarely it was like on two wheels.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
On one wheel, right on number nine.
Speaker 9 (32:19):
And whoever was there, like it looks like probably like
nine fairway was just recording this watching him come in hot. Thankfully,
you know, no injuries, nothing happened. It was a successful landing.
But just you know, hey, when you're up there and
you see a wide open fairway, where else are you
gonna go better than landing?
Speaker 8 (32:35):
You know, middle of a highway.
Speaker 5 (32:37):
I know there was some luck involved there, But I
think that was a pretty darn skilled pilot to keep
that plane from turning over once it hit the ground.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Man.
Speaker 5 (32:44):
That was really it was people out there filming. I'm like,
do you realize this is a plane coming in? Like
there were thin like ten.
Speaker 8 (32:51):
Yards of this content content?
Speaker 4 (32:53):
First, isn't that crazy?
Speaker 9 (32:55):
And then maybe not tea, but I would like to
share just a little bit of this.
Speaker 8 (32:59):
I had a a you know, probably.
Speaker 9 (33:01):
Four am wake up on Tuesday morning. I took the
seven am out of PBI, and as I'm walking through
the airport, I'm like, wait, one golfer, two golfer, three golfers.
There's also a US Open qualifier in Philly this week,
so coming from PBI to Philly, it was a loaded
plane at the seven am time. But one of those
golfers happened to be no other than Patrick Shean. Okay,
(33:22):
just kind of smiled wave Adam in the morning.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
Penn State's Finest.
Speaker 4 (33:26):

Speaker 8 (33:29):
Harry's taking my words from it. It is making my
job easy here.
Speaker 9 (33:32):
So long story short, I get to the kerosel to
get our luggage and he comes up to me and
he goes, My mom loves your show. She listens to
it every Saturday. At the start of her run. Like
everything else, he offered to help me with my luggage.
The kindest kid ever. We walk out there and then
his mom walks up to me and she continues to
say how much she's learning from the show.
Speaker 8 (33:51):
What a fan she is.
Speaker 9 (33:52):
So just wanted to give a shout out to Karen,

Speaker 4 (35:44):
All right, let's see the line what do we got here?
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
This is tough for me, it is, and I was talking.
Speaker 8 (35:52):
To wait time out. You gotta share what happened, so
what it can't be tough for you. We know where
you're taking.
Speaker 5 (35:59):
Oh well that's yeah, that's but I was talking to
some people though about, you know, the sort of the
mindset of some of these players this week. Because we
have a major championship coming up next week, as everybody knows,
that's why this golf course is being used, because they're
going to quel Holla for the PGA. And I've been
told that there's certain players in the field that are
(36:20):
just sort of looking at this week no cut, they're
no sweat, They're just sort of going through the motions,
getting ready for next week, more so than maybe going
out to try to win this thing. Now, if they
end up being you know, playing their rear ends off
their first two days, obviously they go and try to
win it. But keep your eye on some of these guys,
you know, as it's going through, if you take if
(36:41):
you start betting as it, you know, as you you watch,
you know I've bet and kind of thing, you're going
to get a feel in these first two days. Who's
really here to win it and who's here just to
kind of get through it, make their check and.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Going to next week.
Speaker 5 (36:54):
So next week, yeah, exactly exactly. But yes, my one
and done pick. I think it's been it's been given
to me by the gods, the golfing gods, because when
I was here on Monday, the one of the first
pros that I ran into, and I ran into him
three times within twenty minutes, was Tommy, Tommy Fleetwood, and
(37:14):
I saw him again today, one of the first guys
I saw, and then I saw him where I could.
He's standing right in front of me. I'm like, I'm
getting a selfie. I don't do selfies. Okay, I don't
even know how to do selfies.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Most of the time.
Speaker 5 (37:25):
I figured it out while he was interviewing with one
of the local TV anchors and I said, hey, Tommy,
I took you this week and when I get a photo,
and he said, sure, boom.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
And I'm telling you.
Speaker 5 (37:36):
This is the week that he breaks through and gets
his win on the PGA Tour.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
Look at that terrific.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
Ironball takes one picture.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
If I recalled.
Speaker 9 (37:46):
He says something about Tommy. A couple of weeks ago,
Harry goes, but Tommy doesn't win. And that's what I
said to Area, I go, wait a second, but hey,
we figured it out, Moose.
Speaker 8 (37:54):
All that needs is a photo.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
That's it. That's it.
Speaker 5 (37:57):
I don't do selfies, but I did one for Tommy
fleet and then I got a.
Speaker 9 (38:00):
Photo of Harry holding up this selfie. I'll have to
put that on the story. It's beautiful.
Speaker 3 (38:05):
If it's any indication the last two guys that leave
the putting green today, it looks like Tony feet Now
and Denny McCarthy were two of the last guys out
there on their putts.
Speaker 8 (38:12):
Tony off for how long Tony was to run out.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Does Danny McCarthy need to practice puttings? I mean, he's
smooth with it.
Speaker 5 (38:22):
And how about all the caddies getting the levels out
on the putting green. They've all got the levels in
the golf bag. They get him out and measure the
you know, left to right, you know whether the break
is one way or the other. But Tony Fleetwood's plus
twenty two hundred at Bett Parks and I'm also taking
him in a matchup at minus one twenty over Henley
and Henley's getting a lot of love this week, and
(38:44):
the fact that they got him favored over Henley tells
me good things too. Plus two hundred and the top ten.
I'm all fleetwooded up. Shane Lowry was another guy I
kind of like plus twenty eight hundred, and you talk
about speef Off of last week hitting the exemption in
here plus twenty eight hundred. He's hitting the driver great
(39:04):
and you know, short game, nobody's better. You're missing greens
around here. He's gonna find a way to get up
and down. Justin Rose was a guy plus five thousand.
He's got the win at Arono Mink years ago in
the the AT and T, and then came back for
the BMW and finished second to Keegan Bradley, and then
one here at Marion in twenty thirteen. So he obviously
(39:27):
loves bent Grass. I think seven of of his big
ten wins ten big wins are on bent Grass greens,
so he loves the northeast.
Speaker 3 (39:36):
Watch out, Yeah, you have Rory waytop of the board
right plus four hundred. Colum work Alis sitting right there.
Xander jt Oberg I like Cantley. I don't know why,
just a a hunch two thousand and I keep going
back to Keegan Bradley at that plus four thousand number,
guy that I don't know, I could just see him
winning a tournament like this.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
I think.
Speaker 3 (39:54):
I don't think there's a like a prep week for
Keeking Bradley. I think anytime he puts the t in
the ground, he's looking to win a go ornament. Yeah,
and I think that's the kind of guy that, like,
you need this week, you.
Speaker 8 (40:02):
Feel like most guys unless you're you know, Brooks.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
Or like.
Speaker 4 (40:08):
Or coming back from injury or something like that. But
how about our guy min wou Lee.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
He was down with our buddy Danny from Angelo's Cooking
making pizza.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
Well, you asked him how the Angelas was it was? Yeah,
he loved it. He loved it. Yes, he loved it.
It's a beautiful thing.
Speaker 8 (40:23):
Wait.
Speaker 9 (40:24):
I want to ask you real quick though, because you
mentioned Speith in on a sponsor's exemption.
Speaker 8 (40:28):
Who are the other two.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
That were in? I got him right here.
Speaker 5 (40:31):
Yeah, it's Keith Mitchell, Okay, Gary Woodland and Ricky Fowler.
Speaker 9 (40:35):
Yeah, and so that's what we're talking about, right, So
I put it on story. The other day we saw
Eric and Royan saying they asked him, you know, because
he had a grind to get in, and they said,
what do you think about this? He goes, how honest
do you want me to be and proceeded to say,
I think the best fields are the largest fields where
everybody can play, because there's you know, the ongoing debate
where it's the top seventy.
Speaker 8 (40:53):
How does anybody break into that? Or a cycle? But
then when you see these sponsors exemptions.
Speaker 9 (40:58):
It is names like Speeth Yep, you know, Ricky Fowler, Woodland,
Keith Mitchell. It's not like it's you know, anybody that
maybe is like really hot. Like I liked when exemptions
used to be like, hey, this guy on Cornfairy just won,
he's hot right now.
Speaker 8 (41:13):
He deserves an exemption.
Speaker 9 (41:14):
He lives in Philly, Like Harry Higgs isn't playing great
right now, but imagine Harry Higgs out here Billy krowd
following him. They would, you know, probably sell seven hundred
more tickets at least. Yeah, Like I miss kind of
when sponsors exemptions were a little bit like that, But
just wanted to kind of point that out because.
Speaker 5 (41:32):
I did see Eric Finn absolutely and then we had
Day Withdrew with a neck problem. I believe Jason Day
Billy Horsel's out because he's getting his hip operated on
out in Colorado and expects to be back by the
end of the summer. So it doesn't sound like a
major procedure. It sounds like maybe good get a little
cleaned up, maybe a labor missue. I don't know, he's
not getting a hip replacement.
Speaker 9 (41:53):
You know, well nowadays they have literally that's why he's
probably going to that certain specific doctor and it's like, okay,
they go in, it's real quick, it's it's minor.
Speaker 8 (42:00):
They try to fix your issue.
Speaker 9 (42:01):
And then you rehab for a little bit in your
back out to getting your wisdom teeth up.
Speaker 2 (42:04):
Amazing, really amazing.
Speaker 3 (42:06):
We're getting our first look here on YouTube with the
creator Classic. It was great to see that, you know,
first fairway as guys just teet off. This his interviews
from a couple of minutes ago, but they just showed
the first group go off.
Speaker 4 (42:15):
It looks absolutely beautiful.
Speaker 5 (42:16):
Oh yeah, I love the complex on that first hole,
which is number eight.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
It's so cool.
Speaker 5 (42:22):
It's like a three hundred and sixty yard hole. So
you know, these guys are probably hitting on irons. A
lot of irons off that first g but what a
cool green complex. The biggest plays on the one and
Done apparently are Xander Chawflet, Victor Hobland and Justin Rose
and j T. Really but Cory Connors. Cory Connors is
(42:44):
a guy to watch. I already used him, so I can't.
But if I didn't already use him, I would seriously.
Speaker 2 (42:49):
Look at him this week.
Speaker 8 (42:50):
Really.
Speaker 5 (42:51):
Yeah, he likens this place to Canada. Apparently, was playing
off the fairways the bent Grass and said, man, this
reminds me of a summer in Canada.
Speaker 3 (42:59):
Like Jerry at home, it feels very at home. Feel good,
I feel at home. We saw some of our great
Legacy club members. We saw some great nineteen twelve club members,
some of our friends listeners to the podcast just walking
around powers. Where are we going to be set up
on Friday? Different locations? So if you're coming out on Friday,
we're an independent square.

Speaker 2 (43:17):
Correct? Independent square?
Speaker 4 (43:18):
We're going to be right next to your favorite place,
the merch store. Hey, but how about this.
Speaker 3 (43:23):
We've got an inside information that the Powers that Be
did not let the Philly Cricket logo on the merch
which could not have been a bigger miss in the world.
Speaker 4 (43:32):
Yea, that will cost them some serious sales, right.
Speaker 9 (43:37):
But they did tell us they're using the alternate logo,
so like the one with the arc like around it,
and he said they can use that, and then the
other one's just going to be that truest with like
the crown with a little golf ball on top. But
what a miss, right, But they actually they buy out
the pro shops so then they have control, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
Sure, they're also their copy in our style. They got
some Philly golf stuff in there. Oh yeah really yeah.
Speaker 8 (43:59):
Yeah it was you would have slop with a copyright infringement.
Speaker 2 (44:01):
Yeah, let's get it.
Speaker 4 (44:03):
You should have done that.
Speaker 8 (44:04):
Wow, is going on?

We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today.
