>> Jonathan: You guys out there today tuning in on a
Speaker:new episode of Chasing Birdies
Speaker:with your two favorite podcast hosts,
Speaker:Jonathan and RB. What's up, buddy?
Speaker:>> RB: With shakin'that?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Was weird. That was weird.
Speaker:>> RB: What was weird?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Well, the intro. Like, I just don't know. You know,
Speaker:sometimes. Yeah, I say the same thing over and over again, so that was
Speaker:different, but weird.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Well.
Speaker:>> RB: Cause it is always the same, so that's why it feels
Speaker:weird. but, you know, it's not weird is that.
Speaker:Today's episode is brought to you by Red Vanley. Go over
Speaker:to redvanley.com, check them out. Load up on
Speaker:the fall gear that they just launched.
Speaker:I'm checking my front door. Wait for some stuff
Speaker:here. Got a member guest here in about two
Speaker:weeks, so that's exciting.
Speaker:But we're. We're off to a terrible start on the
Speaker:college football gambling.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Over.
Speaker:>> RB: We're over two.
Speaker:>> RB: as of last Saturday, we took the.
Speaker:We took Florida State, Georgia tech upset
Speaker:them.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Mm
Speaker:>> RB: And SMU is a 27 point
Speaker:favorite, and they won by three.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yep. So, yeah, so don't follow suit.
Speaker:And, you know, we kind of talk about it casually, which we
Speaker:will continue to talk about as the season gets gone, but definitely
Speaker:fade. If you want to make money, you fade.
Speaker:>> RB: You fade us right now.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Right now.
Speaker:>> RB: Right now.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Right now.
Speaker:>> RB: But I'll tell you what, I'm excited for Morgantown,
Speaker:West Virginia, here in two days.
Speaker:Garrett Green. Niko's great on the
Speaker:sideline.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: That's, you know what, grooming. That's all
Speaker:we got. Garrett doing what he's going to do, just like he
Speaker:did last year.
Speaker:>> RB: And if. And if you know what Nico needs, to come into
Speaker:the game, he's going to be ready. They've been busting their butts,
Speaker:the boys. West Virginia, Penn State, number eight. Penn
Speaker:State coming into Morgantown, West Virginia. And
Speaker:I'm excited, bud. I know Parker's excited. He's going to the
Speaker:game.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I tell you what, we got a hell of a lot better football team than that team up
Speaker:there in your neck of the woods, I'll tell you that much.
Speaker:Yeah, pit. But I like our
Speaker:chances. The line keeps dropping. I don't know where it is at
Speaker:this point in time, but as of now, today, eight and a
Speaker:half, dropping down a little bit. You might even catch it
Speaker:at seven by the time kickoff comes.
Speaker:>> RB: Well, bud, they need some PSU, man. I caught him at plus
Speaker:ten. When I saw that, I put it in.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yep, that's golden, bud.
Speaker:>> RB: So that's golden.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: And I can feel the vibe. I can feel the buzz in
Speaker:Morgantown already. Like, everyone's stoked. Everyone's
Speaker:coming in this game. Yada, yada, yada.
Speaker:Granted, it's a 12:00 kickoff, but still national
Speaker:televised, but it's. So that is.
Speaker:>> RB: Let's get him. 08:00.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, or 330. Last year, it was
Speaker:the night game up there in Happy Valley, which,
Speaker:you know, was nice, but twelve, o'clock,
Speaker:you gotta get to get the show. Put the brats on at nine,
Speaker:which we'll do. Actually, we won't, but
Speaker:we'll crack one.
Speaker:>> RB: So looking forward to seeing all you yo yos down
Speaker:there in Morgantown on Saturday. But how
Speaker:about, you know, I gotta give a shout out to Keegan
Speaker:Bradley. Dude, my man almost didn't get
Speaker:into the FedEx, right? Sneaks
Speaker:in, wins the BMW.
Speaker:He is the third United
Speaker:States Ryder cup captain to ever win the
Speaker:year they were announced to be captain.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah.
Speaker:>> RB: it was Jack Nicklaus and Davis Love were the other
Speaker:two captains that won the same year that
Speaker:they were announced captain of the United States. So,
Speaker:Keegan Bradley, you're not listening. Probably no one
Speaker:you know is listening, but congratulations. What
Speaker:a win.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Second BMW championship.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah. Incredible win. So now he's off to
Speaker:Atlanta for the FedEx cup. And how do you
Speaker:leave the guy off the President's cup now, right?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Oh, he's. He played great all four days. I
Speaker:mean, obviously, if you watch the golf tournament, Adam Scott had
Speaker:the large lead shot, that nice second round score or
Speaker:whatnot, but it just goes to show you that
Speaker:anyone can win any time. And Keegan,
Speaker:really, it was fun watching him. I mean, even coming down to
Speaker:stretch, he had whatever on, on 17
Speaker:hits. that five iron, 218 right
Speaker:there makes nice little bird. He leaves ego on the lip,
Speaker:but he played really well, man. So I was happy to see him win.
Speaker:It's kind of like. It's justified a little bit, you know, with respect
Speaker:to what happened last year.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: You know, so that was good. And then Mason Williams was playing
Speaker:out in Boise, in the corn ferry tour
Speaker:event, which was fun to see him moving on up
Speaker:there a little bit. So, I mean, you know, it was.
Speaker:>> RB: A good week for West Virginia golf because Christian brand won
Speaker:that big event in
Speaker:Virginia, and then Pat
Speaker:Carter advanced. At this point, I don't know
Speaker:what he ended up doing, but he did advance and make the match play
Speaker:in the senior amateur. So it's been
Speaker:a great, great run for the West Virginia
Speaker:boys. I think maybe Ian Patrick Archer even
Speaker:won, like, one of the gas station events that you guys have. Ah. So
Speaker:it's been all.
Speaker:I mean, it's all the same, so.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: And ipa is in Morgantown, and he's
Speaker:buzzing around. I mean, it is.
Speaker:And, you know, so good things are
Speaker:happening here. And it's a little
Speaker:bit sad to see that at
Speaker:738 o'clock,
Speaker:the days are getting shorter. But, you know, this.
Speaker:This weekend is the full force kickoff weekend
Speaker:for college football. So it's kind of fitting in that regard.
Speaker:But with respect to the Morgantown talk, we have
Speaker:a hometown, you call him a
Speaker:celebrity. Instagram celebrity with
Speaker:Andrew Saab here on chasing birdies, also known
Speaker:as 19th society.
Speaker:And I tell you what, he makes some really good videos of you.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah. And for the videos that you see of Ryan and
Speaker:I, 19 society is the one who creates them.
Speaker:So without further ado, a little less
Speaker:of us talking and listen to what 19
Speaker:society, aka Andrew Saab, has to say.
Speaker:Let's roll it on over to him.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. And make sure you guys check them out on Instagram. Let's
Speaker:go.
Speaker:All right, y'all out there tuning in today to chase
Speaker:and birdies. And not only do I smell
Speaker:football in the air, I still smell a little bit of fall golf coming up
Speaker:here. And today we have an Instagram
Speaker:enthusiast, Andrew Saab, aka
Speaker:19 society, joining us here on chasing
Speaker:Purdy's. It's been long overdue, my man.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: How we doing?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: We doing?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: How's the leg?
Speaker:>> RB: It's great, man. That's. It's great. it's, I'm
Speaker:currently. I've played a couple rounds of golf, and,
Speaker:I'm swinging with my right toes planted in the ground, heel
Speaker:in the air, so that we're not getting any rotation. I wear
Speaker:an ankle brace, high top shoes.
Speaker:I mean, we got it all going on, but it feels good.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: You're golfing?
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, I'm golfing, dude. That's all that I care about.
Speaker:And, But it's good to finally get you on here. I've
Speaker:been so excited for this one. You played a little
Speaker:cat and mouse with us, which I appreciate.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: well, he's kind of shadow band.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, well, he just came off suspension of Instagram,
Speaker:which we got to get into that.
Speaker:So welcome back to Instagram from 19 society.
Speaker:Thank you. It's. Man, we got,
Speaker:like, bastard. We got fall ball, both sides
Speaker:of it. Football, golf in the air. And there's
Speaker:a big one on Saturday.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Boysenheid, is there anything better than just, like,
Speaker:you know, playing fall golf in the morning? And then
Speaker:just afternoon football games. Like, is that not
Speaker:a perfect day?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: It's the only day.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: And, I mean, you can get that Saturday and Sunday. You know what I mean?
Speaker:>> RB: Oh, my gosh, it's so good.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: You go into the game on Saturday.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, I think I may dabble over that way. yeah, I
Speaker:mean, it's probably. I think what they. They said, the biggest home game
Speaker:since 1998. So, I mean, that's
Speaker:okay. Yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Shit, man.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I mean, yes.
Speaker:>> RB: yeah, that was a pretty shitty reaction there in 19
Speaker:society.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: hey, I frequent. I frequent Huntington often. So,
Speaker:hey, I have respect towards Marshall.
Speaker:>> RB: But it's a good. It's a good little town down there
Speaker:in West Virginia.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I do.
Speaker:>> RB: Like, where's your. Where's your
Speaker:watering holes there? You go to the union, don't you?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I've been to the union. I went to Huntington ale
Speaker:house one time. there was a german beer house
Speaker:I went to down there. I think it's kind of newer,
Speaker:but it was pretty good. But, and then there's a,
Speaker:black sheep burritos place, which is a
Speaker:kind, ah, of like a black bear.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, I didn't know anything about
Speaker:that.
Speaker:>> RB: but, dude, wVu, I locked them
Speaker:in last Thursday at plus ten.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Plus ten. I think the line moved to plus eight now.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:>> RB: And I think they keep saying it's gonna go down
Speaker:more. I actually think w is gonna beat that
Speaker:ass. I hope they do.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: They could.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I hope they do, too.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: We'll, see.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I was out playing the pines the other day, and, I listened to your guys episode with
Speaker:Garrett Green. He actually, he, played through the other day.
Speaker:He was with a. One of his coaches and, Cole Taylor
Speaker:as well. They're out there playing, and, you know, they were in a hurry. We're
Speaker:like, yeah, absolutely. Get, you know, play through. We have nowhere
Speaker:to go. So he was a, He's a pretty cool guy.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Dude, Gigi can fucking smoke it now.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Did.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I don't know if you saw him hit the. Hit the driver at all, but.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, yeah.
Speaker:Took a rip and, you know, put it right down the middle of
Speaker:fairway, the, hole he was playing through, so.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Well, that's good shit, man. So you, my
Speaker:friend, you have a big following there on
Speaker:instagram with your 19
Speaker:society. So you guys listening out there, make sure you check him
Speaker:out. Really funny shit. You probably saw stuff of me and pep.
Speaker:He. All the videos that we posted of pep
Speaker:Rod in the back, I don't know what that was that anchorman
Speaker:there.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Are so m. The one video
Speaker:was dumb and dumber. I do know that for sure.
Speaker:>> RB: The one from was, it wedding crashers.
Speaker:No, no, no.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I thought it was Anchormande, old school.
Speaker:>> RB: The streaking old school with my wife involved in
Speaker:that one, which is hysterical.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I did some research on that one.
Speaker:>> RB: That is.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Dude, you must have done some research.
Speaker:>> RB: You've got 10,000 followers. How did this all start?
Speaker:And how much time is it taken to get to this point? Because I'm not
Speaker:kidding you, these videos, not just the ones you send of us, because I
Speaker:like to see myself, but
Speaker:all the ones you were doing are so damn funny. Where
Speaker:does it come from?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I don't know. I guess it's like just, you know, one of those
Speaker:immature, you know, teenage kids
Speaker:personalities that I have, you know, where, where they quote
Speaker:movie quotes from, you know, mature movies
Speaker:like step brothers and, you know, just
Speaker:all the movies growing up, I've used, I've used plenty of, you
Speaker:know, will Ferrell influence, in some of my
Speaker:content, but I also try and keep, like, some of
Speaker:my content, what's happening now?
Speaker:And that's where you see a lot of these content and
Speaker:accounts thrive as they post
Speaker:what's going on now.
Speaker:But I kind of like my page because,
Speaker:it comes from a certain set of
Speaker:music and movies that I'm used to.
Speaker:And there are some things that I post you haven't seen in a
Speaker:while. you
Speaker:know, like, I love posting. The talladega nights. I
Speaker:love posting. Gosh, I'm trying to think just off the top
Speaker:of my head some of the stuff that I've been using. I mean, there are just
Speaker:a bunch of YouTube videos where I'm just able to edit it and just put different
Speaker:faces on it. And, you know, that's
Speaker:basically my content.
Speaker:>> RB: So I'm going to need you, after we get off
Speaker:this episode, I need you to do some
Speaker:caddyshack ones because I don't know if
Speaker:it's true still to this day, but probably up
Speaker:until about three months ago, Ryan Bashauer,
Speaker:the golfer he is, has never saw
Speaker:Caddyshack.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Well, he's not incorrect, but I
Speaker:have seen it now. Yeah, now I have seen it.
Speaker:>> RB: But that literally happened the last.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Okay, yeah. Within the last year, I first
Speaker:time watched it. You know, sometimes that's insane to me.
Speaker:Well, because I just, I know, man, but it's like, I'm just hard. It's
Speaker:hard to watch movies. I have a hard time watching movies.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Like, think to yourself sometimes, like, how many,
Speaker:like, movie quotes that someone said that just probably just went over your
Speaker:head because you've never seen cattle show.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Oh, yeah, all the time. And it's like, what? You know,
Speaker:and I laugh. I giggle about it. Hehe. But it's like, yeah,
Speaker:at some point, I'm, like, in the dark.
Speaker:But honestly, the other issue is it's not so much, that I
Speaker:can't get into a movie. It's just the fact that
Speaker:I also fall asleep because I'm like, am I
Speaker:getting. No, I don't know
Speaker:what it is. It's just. It's just that I just get tired. Like, do you ever get
Speaker:tired just watching a movie?
Speaker:>> RB: Very much so. You know, for me, I do,
Speaker:but I actually fall asleep a lot
Speaker:watching golf.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Golf suit. Golf is soothing, though, you know? I mean,
Speaker:I think for me, if I'm falling asleep, depends
Speaker:on how horizontal. Excuse me,
Speaker:horizontal. I am, you know, if
Speaker:I'm reclining back, there's definitely a chance I'm falling asleep in the
Speaker:chair, you know, sitting up. Eh,
Speaker:maybe. But, yeah, I get what you
Speaker:mean about falling asleep to golf.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: And I've said this before, and I'll say it again. Sometimes watching the
Speaker:champions Tour, which I do enjoy doing,
Speaker:that is what I find soothing. Cause I'm looking at these old
Speaker:cats that we used to watch, Freddy couples
Speaker:swinging 20. Yeah, 20 years ago. And it's like,
Speaker:it's kind of reminiscent. It kind of takes me back a little bit.
Speaker:And, man, I could just fall asleep. Especially when I play on the
Speaker:west coast. I don't know what it is when I see those mountains and
Speaker:pines and these old guys just playing golf.
Speaker:It's. It's therapeutic, kind of.
Speaker:It's.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Honestly, if you put any british or english, like,
Speaker:accent, announcing any golf tournament, I'm pretty sure
Speaker:I fall asleep, you know, because, you know, you're watching me like,
Speaker:yes. Here comes Ernie ells. He's walking up to the
Speaker:13th. Yes. He's about
Speaker:134 yards out. Slight
Speaker:wind from right to left, you know, and you're just like,
Speaker:yeah, I'm definitely gonna fall asleep here. Like,
Speaker:yeah.
Speaker:>> RB: So where did your inspo for the whole page come
Speaker:from? 19th society. Explain it to us, because it
Speaker:is, like I said, it is so funny if you, which you probably
Speaker:the ten people that listen to our episode,
Speaker:they probably already follow bigger following than
Speaker:that. But where did it come from,
Speaker:man?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: well, I started to get back into golf, I think. So I
Speaker:played golf when I was younger. and then
Speaker:travel. baseball started. There was a lot less time for golf.
Speaker:And I really got back into golf, when I was playing college
Speaker:baseball because, at that time, I
Speaker:was a relief pitcher. So what
Speaker:do pitchers do on their off days when
Speaker:they're not pitching? They usually try and golf.
Speaker:So I really got back into it, like, a little bit after
Speaker:college. and then from there, you know,
Speaker:I started playing more and more. And then, you know, I
Speaker:love the content, you know, just scrolling on Instagram
Speaker:sometimes you see all these funny memes and everything. You know, I
Speaker:was just like, you know what?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I'm.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: There are some good, you know, golf content accounts, but I was like,
Speaker:you know what? I could do this. It's not that hard. I could figure out
Speaker:how to edit videos, and, you know, there are a few apps that
Speaker:I use to try and, you know, you know, make the
Speaker:content that I use. So I was like, I could use that, you
Speaker:know, and this is all happening during COVID
Speaker:So there's a lot of isolation where I'm by myself and you're just
Speaker:looking at your phone.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: And, you know, it's. It's during that time where
Speaker:you can't talk to anybody. But the best way
Speaker:I can explain it, relate to
Speaker:it is like, when you post something,
Speaker:you know, and it's really good. It's
Speaker:like telling a good joke where you're, you know, you're in a room full
Speaker:of people, and everyone just busts out laughing, you know what I mean?
Speaker:It's just like. It's that good feeling when, like. Yeah.
Speaker:You know, I said a good one.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. Ah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: So it kind of started out with that, and then, you know, I had a
Speaker:few good posts that just really took off, and.
Speaker:And then it's just been kind of building ever since, when I'm not
Speaker:shadow banned from some of the content that, that I
Speaker:post.
Speaker:>> RB: But how do you get banned from Instagram? Like, what
Speaker:was the story that happened
Speaker:this recent time? Because it's been two times, right?
Speaker:This is the first time.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I think it was. I think it was the same video. It could have been my
Speaker:fault, posting it the second time, but, double down.
Speaker:Really. It really. I thought it was a,
Speaker:It was, like, flagged as like a,
Speaker:false, you know, false information. This is
Speaker:not. It was like, some political. And
Speaker:in the video I was, editing was, you know,
Speaker:a bar full of people cheering, you know, I think
Speaker:an English Premier league game. And really what it was was
Speaker:the masters intro, like, from CB's
Speaker:so, like, the intros going on, as soon as, you
Speaker:know, every. You know, the masters logo pops up, the entire
Speaker:crowd goes crazy. So that's what the video
Speaker:was. And, like,
Speaker:the thing is, they, like, flagged me, like, a week later.
Speaker:Like, it wasn't like I, you know, you posted, and it's, like, ten minutes later,
Speaker:like, now you got to take this down. And, you know.
Speaker:>> RB: Do you think Augusta has something to do with that?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I don't know. I haven't gotten masters tickets
Speaker:yet, so, I mean, that could be a potential
Speaker:possibility.
Speaker:>> RB: That's it?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: That's it, dude.
Speaker:>> RB: I mean, that's it with that.
Speaker:Where did you play baseball at?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I played at West Virginia. Three years.
Speaker:yeah. Pitched for a little bit, ran into some arm
Speaker:troubles, and just never came back from
Speaker:it. So graduated from there, got my masters from
Speaker:there.
Speaker:>> RB: That's great. and now, ah, you have 19 society.
Speaker:Not that you really don't have anything else in your life going on. I know you
Speaker:do, but that's what we know you as, so.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: So, let me go back to this banning thing,
Speaker:because it's really
Speaker:interesting to me. Not that I care, but I feel like there's
Speaker:so many more things on Instagram that are offensive if people
Speaker:get offended these days. I mean, I know people do. I really
Speaker:don't. It takes. I mean,
Speaker:I don't know if I've ever been offended, to be honest with you.
Speaker:But my point is, there are so many other things on there
Speaker:that people may find offensive, and maybe
Speaker:yours was more trademark issue or something akin to, That
Speaker:I don't know. But to be banned for that is just,
Speaker:like, fucking ridiculous, if you ask me.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, I just.
Speaker:Yeah, I really wasn't sure. I tried to reach out to him.
Speaker:no. No gust. I can't really
Speaker:get anywhere with them. now to Instagram, know, the,
Speaker:customer, you know, support the
Speaker:hotline. It doesn't really,
Speaker:>> Jonathan: It doesn't work.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Doesn't ring back. No
Speaker:hotline blame.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: No one calls you back.
Speaker:>> RB: So, like, do you take that and you're like, that's kind of cool. I just got
Speaker:banned from Instagram. Or you like,
Speaker:because you had a little side gig going on there that
Speaker:they. They didn't really know about. Huh? You got around
Speaker:it temporarily.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, I got around it temporarily. You know, just make.
Speaker:Make a backup account. But, they got me around
Speaker:for a little bit, but, you know, just get used to posting that
Speaker:stuff. And the worst part is, like, I got shadow
Speaker:banned, and there were just, like, a million things going on with, like, the
Speaker:PGA and Liz and, like, all this stuff, and you're just
Speaker:like, no one can see my stuff. Like,
Speaker:I'm just, like, over here trying to reach out. Like, I'm writing
Speaker:postcards to people going, hey, if you get a chance, type,
Speaker:you have to probably type it in the search bar to look me up. But this is
Speaker:my account. terrible time. You know, it's just
Speaker:a terrible time. And to be honest, I think
Speaker:that's. That's it. I don't mean to. I mean to side segment from
Speaker:that, but, like, I think that's kind of why my account has
Speaker:grown so much in the past four years, because
Speaker:you got to think what has happened in the past four years,
Speaker:you know, in professional golf, in the world of professional golf
Speaker:and just the drama that's going on. So when
Speaker:you're able to post something relatable to other people that they
Speaker:can laugh at, you know, kind of, you know, just
Speaker:comedy. I like to. If there was one thing I could
Speaker:say that my page is, I was. I'm the south
Speaker:park of golf memes of golf
Speaker:content. You know, we kind of like.
Speaker:You just kind of, like, you know, we kind of make fun
Speaker:of the job done.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah.
Speaker:>> RB: So 19,000
Speaker:followers, probably a few more.
Speaker:Was there one person that you followed that you're
Speaker:like, wow, this guy followed me. That's
Speaker:pretty cool.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Like, or this girl who,
Speaker:after being at live, Greg Norman following me back
Speaker:was pretty cool.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: That's really.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, he followed me back, and I was just like, I had a double take
Speaker:for a second. I was like, this is a fake account. Like, I'm just
Speaker:like, nope, that's a blue check mark. That is
Speaker:Greg Norman. You know, and just like, I've tagged him in, like, a
Speaker:few posts, and he'll respond every once in a while, say, hey, you know,
Speaker:hey, mate. That's hilarious, you know, and,
Speaker:you know, which is pretty cool with, you know, that's pretty
Speaker:fun.
Speaker:>> RB: The shark.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Let'S talk about that.
Speaker:>> RB: Thing.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: you went down to the greenbrier in good old
Speaker:white sulphur, and, so you were there last
Speaker:year, which, obviously we ran into each other. I didn't make
Speaker:it this year. So was it about the same
Speaker:vibe, or how was it compared to
Speaker:last year?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: it was a little bit. I think Saturday
Speaker:there was a little bit more packed, and probably the most packed I've
Speaker:seen. Also kind of helped
Speaker:that the state fair was also going on
Speaker:in that area.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Oh, yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: There were a lot of people that were, like, bouncing back and forth between state
Speaker:fair and the lib tournament. But, I mean,
Speaker:two years in a row down there, like,
Speaker:I really can't complain being able to
Speaker:see on Sunday Bryson shooting a 58 the first year,
Speaker:and then, you know, and this year,
Speaker:you get to see Brooks Koepka and John Rahm battle it out on
Speaker:a playoff hole on the par three on 18. Right. You
Speaker:know, in front of the greenbrier.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: You know, just that area.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: That's.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I mean, it was, I would say, for
Speaker:that weekend, what was going on. Professional golf,
Speaker:I think that tournament lived up
Speaker:to, like, a lot more people tuned into what you would
Speaker:have thought, you know, rather than watching the
Speaker:FedEx.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. Yeah. It probably was
Speaker:a little more exciting. I'm happy to hear that it went well,
Speaker:though, down there, because that's such a good spot, and for
Speaker:them to have lived, you know, be a part of it, I hope it
Speaker:continues. I thought it was the first deal was for two years. Correct.
Speaker:Have you heard anything?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I heard it was just a two year agreement. you
Speaker:know, just from what I read podcast. But, yeah,
Speaker:that's just a two year agreement. So I don't know where it's going to
Speaker:go from there.
Speaker:>> RB: You know, where I'm a firm believer,
Speaker:and I have enough relationships there, and I don't think
Speaker:that they would tell me if they did
Speaker:even know. But based,
Speaker:on where the live tour goes for their events,
Speaker:which are a lot of past PGA Tour
Speaker:stops.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Mm Yeah.
Speaker:>> RB: I feel like nemesis has to be on that
Speaker:docket. I mean,
Speaker:1000, the show that they would put on
Speaker:number one would be out of this
Speaker:world. And the golf courses are great.
Speaker:Mystic, they would eat shepherds alive, but
Speaker:mystic.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah.
Speaker:>> RB: Would be a great test of golf.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: And I don't think they would play
Speaker:shepherds.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Man, I love mystic and shepherds. I haven't played it, I
Speaker:think, two.
Speaker:>> RB: Years, but every time, we got to change it.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah. Well, we got to get up there.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I played yesterday, shot 100. I don't think they would play
Speaker:shepherds, do you?
Speaker:>> RB: I don't think they would, either, but
Speaker:it could be a good. It could be a fun test to show,
Speaker:like, how good they are and then go to
Speaker:mystic, you know, I mean, like, here's,
Speaker:my thing. Bash, like, nine on
Speaker:shepherds. If they back it all the way up,
Speaker:that's 660.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. Ah, but it's one hole now. Ten.
Speaker:>> RB: Three iron from no matter what you're on.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Right. But. No, miss. But to your point.
Speaker:But I know. I know what you're saying, but you're, But
Speaker:mystic would be.
Speaker:>> RB: It'd be incredible, dude. And it's a perfect
Speaker:venue for a live tour event. I
Speaker:think that would be so freaking cool.
Speaker:So, with breaking news, guys, if you really want to know.
Speaker:I don't know anything if it's gonna happen or not.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: You're. We'll just put it out there. Put it out in the
Speaker:universe.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: We can petition for it. You heard it here first.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, well, it might come true now.
Speaker:And that's the thing, too. Like, you hear what
Speaker:John Rahm saying about everything, you know? And obviously,
Speaker:is he saying that?
Speaker:>> RB: Because.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I don't know. I mean, I've read it. I've seen some things that he has
Speaker:said in quotations, but my point is
Speaker:the mood. I don't think he really.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, I don't think it's all, marshmallows and.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: No, yeah, I don't.
Speaker:>> RB: I mean, I think a lot. I think. I think for a lot of those
Speaker:live guys,
Speaker:I think they were hoping that there was any more
Speaker:spotlight on them than four events of the
Speaker:year, and it's just not right. And
Speaker:I think some of them, it's killing them because their
Speaker:brands being killed slowly but
Speaker:surely.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Right. And I think that's. I mean, it's tough for golf right now.
Speaker:Everybody wants to see a resolution, but it just seems like, they're
Speaker:getting nowhere with that right now. And I feel like there
Speaker:are just. There are just two heads. I feel like if you just
Speaker:remove. I just feel like we don't have the right
Speaker:people in there right now. I feel like the PGA
Speaker:Tour does and, like, livestock does, but I feel like there just needs
Speaker:to be, I guess, you know,
Speaker:less cutthroat, you know, hey, we need this. We
Speaker:need that. No, we can't do this
Speaker:where, you know, I think it should just be
Speaker:a more formed league where you're able to bounce
Speaker:back and forth. I think the PGA Tour will always take
Speaker:precedence just because of tradition and the
Speaker:players that want to stay here, like, want to play in America.
Speaker:>> RB: Right.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: but. But, you know,
Speaker:like, you know, just the legal battle.
Speaker:Anytime, there's any legal battle involved,
Speaker:it's going to take a long time.
Speaker:>> RB: I mean, if I'm. If I'm Rory McElroy,
Speaker:which I'm not, but if
Speaker:I'm him, I'm very upset with how.
Speaker:And he was upset in the, Netflix show.
Speaker:I mean, did this guy went to bat? He was the spokesperson
Speaker:without, quote, unquote, being the
Speaker:spokesperson. He was defending the PGA tour.
Speaker:Him and Tiger were doing everything, and he gets kind
Speaker:of sidetracked from it, by it, and
Speaker:it. Now suddenly, you don't hear anything from him or
Speaker:tiger about anything. So I feel like there's something
Speaker:going on that, could be.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah. And I. And I think that's also, you know,
Speaker:they're media people saying, hey,
Speaker:let's just back off from this. Let's, you know,
Speaker:not be as vocal or just, you know, move, you know,
Speaker:move on. But, Yeah, I think
Speaker:that, you know, at the end of the day, I just rather
Speaker:see that both of them just focus on golf,
Speaker:you know, being top two, you know,
Speaker:whatever. I still think. I still think
Speaker:tigers got that one last kick in him. I'm
Speaker:just, you know, I'm still one of those people. Everyone's just like, no, he's done. He's
Speaker:done just like, no, he's got one more. You guys, you guys
Speaker:don't see it yet, but he's just gonna.
Speaker:>> RB: Out of nowhere, I was, I'm you.
Speaker:But the last two majors, it's
Speaker:tough to watch, man. It's really hard to watch him. It's. It like, it
Speaker:literally hurts you watching him play
Speaker:because it's. There's no power off that
Speaker:right leg, and he's just, like,
Speaker:kind of just lifting up and hoisting it. And
Speaker:my. My big question on that is for tiger,
Speaker:knowing that he gets so tired, all these golf
Speaker:courses he's played a m million times, why is he playing a
Speaker:Monday practice round at Pinterest, hash two, or
Speaker:wherever the British Open was? Like, dude, you're just
Speaker:wasting energy playing that. You already know
Speaker:that. Go hit some golf balls, go eat some
Speaker:lunch, maybe play nine holes
Speaker:on Tuesday and then back nine on Wednesday.
Speaker:Like, I don't know. I feel like he's wasting a lot of
Speaker:energy, and he's never going to make a
Speaker:cut spending that much energy to get to that
Speaker:point.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Well, but the other thing, too, is that
Speaker:he, he does know those courses. But, I
Speaker:mean, you're talking about a guy that,
Speaker:other than the genesis, what other event that he hasn't
Speaker:played in a regular event in how many years? I mean, you don't count the
Speaker:Bahamas. And plus, when he does play in the Bahamas, he finishes
Speaker:last, you know, and,
Speaker:yeah, the hero.
Speaker:>> RB: That's right. But that's my question to you two,
Speaker:is, you know, they're
Speaker:saying they're gonna start giving you exemptions and stuff.
Speaker:Yeah, I know why they're doing that, but is it really
Speaker:worth doing that. To see this guy struggle this
Speaker:month.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I don't think it is. If he were playing
Speaker:more tournament golf, then they might. It
Speaker:might behoove him. Yeah. It might benefit him, I
Speaker:should say more.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: He'd be sharper. I feel like just coming in and trying to play four
Speaker:times a year against the best in the world when the talent
Speaker:gap is. Has closed, you know,
Speaker:tremendously.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: You know, and, you know, that's. That's part of his
Speaker:effect.
Speaker:>> RB: You know what I mean? Like, right.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: That, like, his rise to domination
Speaker:has caused everybody go, okay, what's the
Speaker:blueprint? What did he do?
Speaker:And everyone did that, and they tried to do it, you know, times
Speaker:ten.
Speaker:>> RB: But the more Tiger played, the
Speaker:better he got. I mean, it's
Speaker:just, it's just, it's, it's like that for a lot of people.
Speaker:But to watch him, man, it is really.
Speaker:It's, it. Like I said, you literally cringe watching
Speaker:him, because it's.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: It is.
Speaker:>> RB: He's getting on the back nine of the sturdy of a
Speaker:Friday, and you just see the pain. You can just tell
Speaker:how much he's hurting, and it's just tough.
Speaker:It's tough to watch.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah. You know, like, I just remember. I
Speaker:remember. What was the one you only remember was, like, one clip of
Speaker:the masters, though. There was one clip at the master,
Speaker:the recent masters, where he was trying to walk. I can't remember if it was
Speaker:this masters, the one before, and you could just, like,
Speaker:his leg just bent, like, a certain way, and you were just like,
Speaker:that didn't look good at all, you know?
Speaker:And, you know, I've never been down there, but they always talk
Speaker:about how hilly and, you know, terrain just to walk that course,
Speaker:it is,
Speaker:>> RB: It's insane. And what I've gone
Speaker:through, which is very minor compared to what he's gone
Speaker:through, but the reason I'm using myself
Speaker:is I don't know how he. I
Speaker:don't know how he's swinging with what he's gone through.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Mentally, man, like, just to go back and do that,
Speaker:I mean, yeah, coming back from an injury that's, you
Speaker:know, not only is golf mentally tough enough,
Speaker:coming back from an injury and then trying to play golf,
Speaker:you know, that, you know, and
Speaker:especially one. One that he's had, one that's
Speaker:almost life altering. So.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: So I'm I'm I'm listening to this
Speaker:audiobook. It's called, relentless.
Speaker:And it's the guy that, Grover. Oh, shit. Tim
Speaker:Grover. Maybe. I can't think off the top of my head. But any rate,
Speaker:he talks about how everyone
Speaker:has a dark side. All these top athletes
Speaker:people, successful business people, whatever. And he talks about how everyone
Speaker:has a dark side. And Tiger woods was
Speaker:living in his dark side when he was on
Speaker:this run, and he had all these women,
Speaker:basically, and that was his alter ego, essentially. And then when
Speaker:that went away,
Speaker:everything around him in his world just collapsed
Speaker:because he was exposed, and that alter ego didn't
Speaker:exist anymore, essentially. really
Speaker:interesting. Unfortunately, we got to talk about that because
Speaker:that's what happened to him, if you think about it.
Speaker:I mean, granted, he was a little banged up, but
Speaker:still.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah. Mentally, especially. I
Speaker:guess not, you
Speaker:know, not only that, but just letting the entire
Speaker:world in on your home life, you know,
Speaker:it's not like. It's not like the rest. It's not like the rest of us, you
Speaker:know, something happened like that to us. We're not gonna be on, you
Speaker:know, 05:00 news on SportsCenter, not on every, you
Speaker:know, you know, there's not gonna be a notification
Speaker:that he's having a press conference about this, you know what I mean?
Speaker:so, yeah, I mean, that's definitely, you know,
Speaker:I think, taking a toll. And then, you know, another thing is
Speaker:just being a,
Speaker:dad to his two kids.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Oh, yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: You know. You know, a lot of people don't realize that.
Speaker:You know, I always. I forget there was always
Speaker:a guy that would sit at the bar out at the country club I'm at,
Speaker:and, you know, he. If there was one guy or
Speaker:one guy on tour that got married, he goes, oh, he's going to
Speaker:struggle for a year. Oh, he just had a kid. Oh, that's going to be a
Speaker:rough next year for him. He's, you know, he's going to have to adjust to
Speaker:that. And I just feel like that,
Speaker:you know, raising two kids and then going through all
Speaker:that, he's handled it pretty well. And that, you
Speaker:know, you know, come out. And then you got to
Speaker:think, five years ago, he won the 2019
Speaker:Masters.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: You damn right, dude.
Speaker:>> RB: And that was so cool because that was. His kids were
Speaker:there.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah. He sprinted over, and then, you
Speaker:know, everything on, you know, instagram, anything,
Speaker:social media. I remember this perfectly. There was a side
Speaker:by side of him hugging earl at the
Speaker:97 Masters, and then, springing over at him
Speaker:hugging Charlie at the 2019. You're just like, oh, man, that's like,
Speaker:cold chill. It's just like you. You just feel like you just
Speaker:lived, you know, like you just went just
Speaker:a generational gap just right there, just in two
Speaker:photos, and you're able to witness both.
Speaker:So, I mean, I was eight years old when I
Speaker:watched Tiger woods win the, you know, 97 masters.
Speaker:So seeing him win 2019, I I
Speaker:just remember watching. I was like, I still have cold
Speaker:chills.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah.
Speaker:>> RB: But now it's cool because you think about, like, our. Our
Speaker:parents growing up and them getting
Speaker:to watch Mickey mantle or
Speaker:whoever play golf. Ben Hogan.
Speaker:other sports. Wayne Gretzky, Jack Nicklaus. I mean,
Speaker:the list goes on and on. We literally
Speaker:got to see Michael Jordan, Tiger woods history.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Absolutely phenom.
Speaker:>> RB: and Neil Walker.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I'll tell you what. Hey, pep.
Speaker:Yeah, nearly. I'll tell you what we didn't get the witness
Speaker:of Pepe, or, I've never witnessed. I don't know. You tell me if you've witnessed
Speaker:this. Okay. Have you ever witnessed a
Speaker:golfer playing right handed,
Speaker:then going left handed, then trying to
Speaker:go back right handed, and then ending up left
Speaker:handed, basically just.
Speaker:>> RB: Going back and forth until. No,
Speaker:I I know of people that
Speaker:are right handed putt left handed
Speaker:because it breaks a.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: God bless Mark Bradley. He was one of them.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, exactly. He was that man.
Speaker:but no. Is that you 19 society here?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, that's the other part of the count. So, like, when I'm not posting
Speaker:memes, when it's not, ah. When it's not boring.
Speaker:yeah, so, I
Speaker:switched. I got my set of clubs
Speaker:probably three and a half years ago. It, was, like, march of
Speaker:2021 when I finally got my full set. And you would. You
Speaker:guys would appreciate this, because I didn't have my full set of irons
Speaker:yet, so I was playing
Speaker:a demo at the time because I was still waiting for my clubs to
Speaker:come in a demo. Three wood and driver,
Speaker:left handed, right handed
Speaker:irons, left handed wedges,
Speaker:and a left handed butter.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: So, I mean, isn't that
Speaker:confusing, though? That's got to be hard.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: it definitely took a while, and it's still taking a while. but I, you
Speaker:know, just being a natural lefty. you
Speaker:know, growing up younger, you know, I just
Speaker:kind of learned how to play the game.
Speaker:>> RB: Righty.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: There's no left handed, you know, junior
Speaker:sets just laying around anywhere. You know, you got to buy a custom. So I just
Speaker:start, you know, kind of started picking up, playing the game. Righty.
Speaker:and I was my brother,
Speaker:probably back in 20, I'd, probably say,
Speaker:yeah, it's probably like the fall of 2020,
Speaker:and I, was playing out at the
Speaker:pines, where I'm a member at. I just playing
Speaker:number two, and I hit this terrible shot to the left, and it was just
Speaker:like, I pulled the ball so far.
Speaker:I was just, like, embarrassed. And I was just like, you know, I'm just tired
Speaker:of this, just fighting, just, you know, being right handed.
Speaker:And, you know, my brother was like, I'm tired of, you know,
Speaker:I'm tired of hearing you say this. Just then just
Speaker:switch.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: He's tired of watching, you know, he's.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Just like, he's just like, just shut up if you're going to do it. Then just
Speaker:switched. So I was like, you know what? You know, that's the older
Speaker:sibling in me. I'm just like, you know what? Screw you. I will. How about that?
Speaker:So walk up to the pro shop and, you know, talk to
Speaker:the, you know, pro in there. I was like, hey, can I borrow this lefty seven iron?
Speaker:So later in the fall, I go
Speaker:play in a tournament down Pete dye, playing the big smoke
Speaker:tournament there.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: you go big smoke?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah. So I got invited down there, and
Speaker:we're playing, hole. Is it hole number
Speaker:six? Is that the one with the rock wall on the
Speaker:left?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. With the little creek short par four?
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yes. So, like, the guy I'm playing
Speaker:with, I hit my drive, and, you know, at the time, I'm still
Speaker:obviously hitting it right handed. So I have a left
Speaker:handed seven iron in the bag, technically a 15th club.
Speaker:And so I hit it right up next to this rock
Speaker:wall on the right side of the wall.
Speaker:So, as a righty, how are you going to hit
Speaker:it? So I look at my partner and I was like, hey,
Speaker:man, they're all the way over there. I don't
Speaker:know if they're counting my clubs or not, but I have a left handed seven iron. You want
Speaker:me to try and take a hack at this? He goes, well, I don't
Speaker:know how you're going to hit it right handed, so.
Speaker:And he goes, and it's not like we're in contention for the lead, so, you know,
Speaker:take a shot. So I've got seven iron in the bag,
Speaker:and, I start to, you know, take two practice
Speaker:swings, lefty, and I'm probably,
Speaker:like, 150 yards out, and there's that,
Speaker:there's that trap that was like, a little bit from my angle. It was like a little
Speaker:bit left of the pin. And I just played this
Speaker:beautiful draw with a seven iron just right over
Speaker:this trap, and it lands right on the green, like
Speaker:15ft from the pin. And I just, like, side eye, my
Speaker:buddy and the two guys that you could just see
Speaker:them from the other fairway, and the one guy yells over, he goes,
Speaker:did he just hit that left handed? And
Speaker:guys like, yeah. And so I was like, I looked at him, I was like,
Speaker:okay, maybe I'm gonna start taking this seriously. So I came back
Speaker:in after that tournament got fitted. Then, yeah, you
Speaker:know, just started working on it left handed. And then, that's. Ever since I got my
Speaker:full set, I've been playing lefty.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: That's what. Now, weren't you going back right, though,
Speaker:or thinking about it recently?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Oh, no, I just posted that as a. I think that was an April
Speaker:fool's post.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, I'm looking at that. I'm like, what?
Speaker:>> RB: So he felt, you got one person. If there's. You're gonna get
Speaker:it.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Because I believe everyone anyways. Good. I
Speaker:believe you, too.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: No, but, but definitely. There's definitely days when,
Speaker:you're playing terrible. You're just like, why do I switch?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: So, that's funny.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: But no, I, enjoyed being able to. Being
Speaker:able to switch because I just feel more natural playing right
Speaker:now, you know, overdose, you know?
Speaker:You guys know in golf, what's the one thing you want to
Speaker:be over? The ball is comfortable.
Speaker:So, you know, from the left side, that's. That's what I am, so that's
Speaker:why I keep playing it.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. And I think a lot of times we as amateur
Speaker:golfers, and I stress the word amateur because that's what
Speaker:we are. We always try to force
Speaker:things or, you know, we have swing thoughts. All of us, we're
Speaker:all guilty of it. but to become more comfortable
Speaker:over the ball and feel more comfortable,
Speaker:natural, maybe, I don't know. That's
Speaker:ultimately what is going to benefit you into golf swing anyways.
Speaker:You know, when you feel. When you feel like you're over the ball and
Speaker:you're not even thinking and you're just able to swing it,
Speaker:that's when you hit your best shots 100%.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Absolutely.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: so that's good, man. So that's. That's been your
Speaker:little journey a little bit on the golf game. And, yeah,
Speaker:you're. I mean, you got a full time job. You got
Speaker:a full time job with 19 society, and
Speaker:you're trying to groom a golf game. I mean, but you have time to
Speaker:sleep.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, I do it well, you
Speaker:know, as soon as I hit the bed, I hit the
Speaker:bed. So, I, mean,
Speaker:the thing I want to do more with this account is just,
Speaker:you know, be able to play more courses,
Speaker:you know, you know, see more places and review
Speaker:more 19th holes, see their bars, you
Speaker:know?
Speaker:>> RB: Is that what you're trying to, like, do with that?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I would love to do that if you could be like. If I could be
Speaker:like, the diners, drive ins and dives, golf, like, 19th
Speaker:holes. Like, yeah, I would sign up for that. If you would invite. If I had to go,
Speaker:like, rate some of your best stuff at your restaurant
Speaker:and you'd let me play your course. Yeah, I think I would sign up for that.
Speaker:>> RB: Why would you not push that, though? Like, I
Speaker:think I am.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I'm start. I'm starting to. I, just got a. I just got to make
Speaker:a few more contacts, so.
Speaker:>> RB: Well, I think we can help you out.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: You know, I had to also. I had to get out of Instagram
Speaker:Jill, too, so I can
Speaker:also push it.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: So would you rate their drinks or the aesthetics
Speaker:or what would you kind.
Speaker:>> RB: Of rate overall, like, vibe?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I was just like, hey, this is your restaurant. You know,
Speaker:your. Your bar, you know, your clubhouse bar or whatever.
Speaker:What are you, You know, what. What's this place known for?
Speaker:What's the go to drink? You know, some places. Oh, we have the
Speaker:best transfusion. Oh, we have. We have a
Speaker:paloma. We have a Bloody Mary that's got, like, an entire chicken
Speaker:breast in it. You know, something like that. I would. You
Speaker:know, I would try their signature stuff.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. Because every club, I feel like has something that they probably.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Oh, for sure. You know, some type of signature drink, some
Speaker:type of signature shot, something. So.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: And, you know, the cool thing is the course that you
Speaker:remember the pines is a
Speaker:phenomenal golf course, man, every time I
Speaker:get to play the pines, I love it. It's kind of tucked away there in the
Speaker:hills of Morgantown on the outskirts. Always
Speaker:had great greens. And, we're
Speaker:hosting, well, we, West Virginia
Speaker:Golf association, in partnership with Pikewood
Speaker:Energy, is hosting the mid am this year at the
Speaker:Pinesen. I didn't see your name on the signup sheet, though.
Speaker:When. By this point, it's over, but whatever.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, probably, not going to sign up for
Speaker:that one. Being
Speaker:busy.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Ah, it is my home course, but I, you know, I don't want to be shown up
Speaker:at my home course by people by. That are. That are not from
Speaker:that home course. But,
Speaker:no, I just. I just enjoy. I play a little bit of competitive
Speaker:golf. but mostly when I'm going out and playing, it's
Speaker:usually walking out in the evening with my friends.
Speaker:That's, you know, 1818 on the carts
Speaker:on the weekends, you know.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yep, I love it, I guess.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: You know that casual golfer?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. You know, we used to do
Speaker:a pete dye versus the Pines event.
Speaker:it was every year and we would play a pete dye
Speaker:and then we'd come up to pines and, you know, it was good camaraderie. All
Speaker:the boys loved it. We yuck it up a little bit. Now for some
Speaker:members that were members of both clubs, because we do have
Speaker:that shout ah out Kevin Pearson, he
Speaker:would play for the pines and it's like,
Speaker:yeah, KP would play for the pines and, you know,
Speaker:for citizenship.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: That's what it was.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, he does. He's got that, he's got it like that.
Speaker:But, but we don't do that anymore. And
Speaker:it's a shame because it was a fun event and
Speaker:now I know I'm just talking colloquial right now because it's something only
Speaker:I know about, or esoteric talking,
Speaker:basically. But my point is, it was a great event, Mandev.
Speaker:So I'm excited to play the pines though, here in
Speaker:a couple.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: And that's like perfect time to do that. I feel like it's
Speaker:always the fall. Anytime you have like any, it
Speaker:has that like feel, you know what I mean? Where
Speaker:it's a little bit of chill near.
Speaker:>> RB: I've never been there.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: You've never played the pines?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Not one time. I'll take you out there.
Speaker:>> RB: Not one time.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: You probably don't want to take some of the ball flights I take, but
Speaker:I
Speaker:>> RB: What do you take, high or low ball?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: High or low? I'm trying to work left or right. Trying to figure that
Speaker:out too. Man, I'm better when I play a low
Speaker:ball though. When I walk up to t playing
Speaker:lefty, I'm really good at just playing a little low,
Speaker:just little pool cut. If I could play
Speaker:that every time, I think that's because the pines on the front nine
Speaker:now the entire front nine is
Speaker:left Ob. So I have to stare at Ob, the entire front
Speaker:nine. So that's where I've just kind of developed that natural
Speaker:pool cut because I'm just terrified of just retaining
Speaker:on one.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, cuz they, they re changed their, they redid
Speaker:the layout last year.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: They've done, they've also done a lot of improvements, man. They did a bunch of
Speaker:stuff as a range. So. Yeah,
Speaker:layout and they've got a bunch of projects going
Speaker:on, man.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: We're lucky though, in this little region and we got
Speaker:great golf, I'll tell you. But
Speaker:then you throw the green bar in there in our great state of West
Speaker:Virginia, if you want, across. Across the border right there in
Speaker:southwest Pa yawk Yakugani country club.
Speaker:Pete dye, nemo colon.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: That's the. That's pike wood right behind me
Speaker:there it is. Yeah, I played it a
Speaker:few times. Yeah, I probably played it about 1516
Speaker:times.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: It's.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: That's a, That's a tough track.
Speaker:It's beautiful. Oh, dude, it's so
Speaker:special. It's like. That's what I always tell people because, you know,
Speaker:they ask me, like, what's it like playing pike?
Speaker:But I was just like, there's just not too many courses where you
Speaker:can walk up and you just see no divots.
Speaker:Yeah. Like, landing zone.
Speaker:>> RB: You're just like, yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: You go to. You're like, should I even take a divot? I'm. I should probably thin
Speaker:this. I don't want to mess up the course. It just looks too
Speaker:nice.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, it's like. It is. It's like a
Speaker:Bentley or something real nice. You only drive it on Sunday afternoons if
Speaker:it's sunny. That's kind of like pike would like. You
Speaker:just kind of want to, you know, don't mess with it too much.
Speaker:But when you're there, it's like, golly.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: But then when I'm there, I don't want to leave, too, so.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, I think I could live in that pro shop, too.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, it's. It's. It's kind of quaint and
Speaker:pretty. Pretty cozy, man.
Speaker:>> RB: Logo. Good everything.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: We got to get you out, though, man. We got to take you up mystic,
Speaker:bring pep down to the pines now that he can play
Speaker:again.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, we can set that up.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, I'm dabbling now, boys. I'm hitting
Speaker:270 bunts out there right now with the
Speaker:heel race, but it feels good.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Do I need to get you a handicap flag still or
Speaker:how?
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, for sure. I'm not out of the clear
Speaker:yet. September 16. That's my next appointment,
Speaker:but a, handicap sign would be much
Speaker:appreciated.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Okay. We can work on it. We'll set it up there.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: We got to do it, man. And I tell you what, man,
Speaker:it's. We generally keep our episodes about
Speaker:this. This timeframe, and, you know, I
Speaker:just want to tell you, I appreciate you coming on.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: No, thank you for having me.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I'm going to throw you for a question here, which we
Speaker:might consider our tap in segment presented by
Speaker:benardi.com. check them out online.
Speaker:But here's a question for you, Mister Saab 19
Speaker:society. You got one round to play with
Speaker:an influencer. You got Paige per Annik or Taylor
Speaker:Cusack. Who you going with?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Taylor?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: TC.
Speaker:>> RB: Really?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: I would take Taylor over page.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Taylor takes. She takes a crack at that ball, man.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, I mean, she makes my back crack at it. Yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. She don't hold back.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: No, not at all.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, that's. Yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: All right. Guest pass,
Speaker:guess. Yeah. What to tell her that.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Maybe we should link you two up. Maybe you guys can do some content
Speaker:together.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: No, let's set it up at number call. Let's do it.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Oh, that's right, you did. Yeah, let's do that. Are, You got
Speaker:one golf course you can play the rest of your life. What are you playing?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Oh, Laurel Valley golf
Speaker:club.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Really?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah. That is one of my favorite courses. Just simple
Speaker:layout. rider cup course.
Speaker:also like that, they keep on taking out trees. Love that.
Speaker:Yeah, it's just a, really cool hidden course. Just, you
Speaker:know, kind of western pa. Yeah,
Speaker:no, it's.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: It's special, too.
Speaker:all right, so what is your biggest goal with
Speaker:your social media handle at this juncture, man?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Biggest goal? at the beginning, I didn't know
Speaker:what I was going to do with it. I just figured, you know, just kind
Speaker:of being in
Speaker:the. In the golf world, you know, was enough
Speaker:for me. But, you know, the more that I gained followers,
Speaker:you know, I am looking at different things. I'm not sure if that's, you
Speaker:know, more of like a. An apparel type route.
Speaker:I've thought, you know, thought about a few ideas, like. Like we
Speaker:talked about earlier, just the, you know, the reviewing of courses. Is that what
Speaker:I want to do, you know, just being able to travel around and do that. So I'm
Speaker:kind of keeping my options open right now until, you
Speaker:know, you know, I'm at 28,000 followers right
Speaker:now, but I'm hoping to, like, you know, really gain
Speaker:and, you know, you know,
Speaker:next few months or, you know, next few years, hopefully.
Speaker:And, you know, the things that kind of is the drama
Speaker:engulf.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: So, yeah, we need more drama.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Yeah, we need more drama. And so, you know,
Speaker:weeks, like when they release the, Netflix episodes,
Speaker:those are great for me because, you know, that's usually during a dead time, like in
Speaker:the winter time when they release those. So, you know, it's kind of a dead period where not
Speaker:much is going on and, you know, there's not any really big
Speaker:tournaments yet, so the more that the golf is in
Speaker:the news or makes headlines is really.
Speaker:Is what's best for my account right now.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: That makes sense.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: So, yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: All right, let me ask you one last question here in the tap
Speaker:and segment. What are you chasing?
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Number one, when I'm on the course, I'm chasing fairways.
Speaker:I mean, that's the first step to chasing a birdie, right?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: It is.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: No, I guess just, I don't know, man. It's just, you know,
Speaker:just a simple life for me. Just the simple life,
Speaker:you know, everyday simple life. Just being stress
Speaker:free. I just feel. I feel like people that are
Speaker:stress free and don't have to worry are the happiest,
Speaker:and then, yeah, you know, they're what I call the richest people. So if that's
Speaker:what's being rich to me, I just need to make
Speaker:sure. I just have. I just need to have enough money to go golf, you know, every once in a
Speaker:while. That's my therapy. Let me hit a
Speaker:driving range, you know?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, that's great.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: That's awesome. Yeah.
Speaker:>> RB: Love it.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Well, Andrew, man, it was so nice catching up with you
Speaker:here. And I know we're kind of from the same town, so we need
Speaker:to make sure we connect.
Speaker:>> RB: Maybe we just meet in the. Was it gold lot,
Speaker:blue lot. What do you guys call it?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Well, we'll be in the gold lot,
Speaker:but we might venture down there, though. Who knows? We'll see
Speaker:what happens. But,
Speaker:>> RB: Sounds good much
Speaker:and all.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: right.
Speaker:>> RB: Keep sending those videos of us every once in a while because they
Speaker:literally. I save them all, and they're hilarious.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: So, I've got some more brewing in my head, but, like, as soon as
Speaker:you had that leg injury, I'm not gonna lie, the Ricky Bobby one had me
Speaker:laughing as I was making it this.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Way.
Speaker:Yeah, hit him straight left or right hand or whatever. But make sure you check
Speaker:out the 19th society on Instagram
Speaker:if you need some good laughs. My man. Thanks so much.
Speaker:>> Andrew Saab: Thanks, guys.
Speaker:>> RB: 19 society. Andrew Saab. Thank
Speaker:you, my dude, for coming on finally. We
Speaker:literally have been trying to get him on for a year and a half.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, it's been a long time coming.
Speaker:>> RB: So glad that you're off your suspension on Instagram.
Speaker:And I'm also glad that the third leg,
Speaker:Greg Norman sends you a few messages here and
Speaker:there. that's fantastic. To hear
Speaker:his social media games growing. It's.
Speaker:Again, dude, it's hilarious. But his.
Speaker:His memes on Instagram are so damn
Speaker:funny, and I love it. I love it.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. And I mean, the fact that the guy actually
Speaker:transformed his golf swing, you know what I mean? Going
Speaker:left or right to left.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: and that's tough thing to do, believe me. There's been times in my life where
Speaker:I think maybe, maybe I should go left because I am left
Speaker:handed, but I never hit the ball.
Speaker:>> RB: What if we tried it? You should try it. Why
Speaker:not get a seven iron, lefty, and see how
Speaker:we hit him?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, you know what?
Speaker:>> RB: I might try that, and you might show up to the next member guest.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Left handed, getting pops.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I tell you what, though, the next member guest I'm playing in isn't really
Speaker:a member guest because I'll be a pronghorn in Bend,
Speaker:Oregon, with Steve and peering.
Speaker:>> RB: Does this ever get exhausting? Man, it's your time. It's your
Speaker:time. Well, it's your year.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: you know what's funny is he's sending me now.
Speaker:It's getting closer to the event, so he's calling me multiple times a day, which
Speaker:I respect and love because I love chatting with the guy.
Speaker:but, you know, he kind of did me a disservice. They're getting the
Speaker:handicap set up. Typically, I get one pop or so, but I'm
Speaker:at zero. He's picking up nine now.
Speaker:I told him that even with nine, we
Speaker:still might be a little nervous. But
Speaker:he laughed, though. He thought it was funny.
Speaker:But while we're playing golf, you'll be playing golf. M
Speaker:in a member guest.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, yeah, I'm playing in, Nemacolan, member guest with,
Speaker:cool Taylor from the playing through group, which they're coming
Speaker:in. Cole Taylor, Tyler reeve, and Charles
Speaker:Kelly from lady Antebellum, are all rolling
Speaker:in for the weekend, putting a little show on and playing the member
Speaker:guest. So, it's gonna be a little fun time, dude,
Speaker:and I can't wait to get back into action. A little swing of things.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, you really are. You're starting to become
Speaker:a little more healed.
Speaker:And that's what happens when you take care of yourself. You took care of
Speaker:yourself, you got acupuncture, you ate right.
Speaker:And, you know, the holistic approach. And
Speaker:if you're trying to get into some holistic approach, there's no better
Speaker:place in the world than Nemicolan,
Speaker:because Nemicolan has the holistic spa
Speaker:Nemicolon, south of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Check them out
Speaker:online@nemeacolan.com. you play

Speaker:pep. Maybe you'll see, see the lady Annebellum guy up
Speaker:there, maybe.

Speaker:>> Jonathan: Charles. I feel like Schwinnie knows that guy.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:>> RB: I mean, he lives in Nashville. You should know a lot of these guys so
Speaker:well.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: But I tell you what, that was a fun one today.
Speaker:It is. You know what? No matter how old this thing
Speaker:gets, which it does, it gets old.
Speaker:We'll, admit it.
Speaker:>> RB: But I love seeing your face. Like, every
