Speaker:Happy fourth of July weekend. You folks out there tuning
Speaker:in to this episode of Chase and Bertie.
Speaker:Happy birthday, America.
Speaker:Feels good. It feels good just to have you and me
Speaker:in the studio today, but.
Speaker:>> RB: Man, yeah, I mean, happy 4th of July to everyone.
Speaker:Um, I hope that you are safe
Speaker:while you're shooting bottle rockets at
Speaker:each other. Um, sparklers. Sn.
Speaker:Remember those as a kid, man, I throw those in my parents toes. My
Speaker:dad's tow hairs caught on fire. The one year.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Um.
Speaker:>> RB: Today'S episode is brought to you by
Speaker:Red Vanley. So make sure you go to redvanly.com check
Speaker:them out. Uh, the two man event
Speaker:is right around the corner. We are about three and
Speaker:a half weeks away. Um, people,
Speaker:the buzz is starting. Dude, I'm getting text messages.
Speaker:Um, saw a bunch of people at the Moose Club
Speaker:the other day talking about the two Man.
Speaker:Um, there's a little rumor and I don't
Speaker:know if this is true on your side or what, but there's a little
Speaker:rumor that a Moose Club
Speaker:member guest invite was extended to you
Speaker:there.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: There is. There was. It's true.
Speaker:Yeah, I. I actually got a text him back. I texted him back and told him
Speaker:I was potentially playing in the State Open.
Speaker:>> RB: Um, and so you're declining and.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Well, I'm more than likely declining.
Speaker:Yes. Yes. But. But I mean,
Speaker:I'll tell Tyler myself. Tyler and all love, baby,
Speaker:but you know, the dates kind of don't match up
Speaker:and um, you know, if I didn't play so well at the stadium,
Speaker:then I probably wouldn't be in this position and might. Might be
Speaker:pegging. Pegging it up with you at the Moose Club.
Speaker:Um, which. The Moose Club is
Speaker:Yakag Country Club. And it's a great
Speaker:course. Dude, you're kind of making it out
Speaker:like it's like it's just the Moose Club.
Speaker:No. Which, it's great.
Speaker:>> RB: It's a. It's a blast there. I love
Speaker:it. We have a. We have a hooting time all
Speaker:the time. The member guest is literally, which at most
Speaker:clubs it is the best event of the year.
Speaker:Um, and I'm excited because we got the
Speaker:member guest Friday and Saturday and then we go right into man
Speaker:on Sunday.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Dude. The whole. The funny thing is though,
Speaker:at the time that you. So let me just say this.
Speaker:You know, in. In. In Dumb and Dumber where
Speaker:he's like, you know, at the end of the scene where
Speaker:they. The bus rolls up and it's all these, these beach
Speaker:girls and they're looking for the whatever
Speaker:and he's like it's that way, you know, and they could have used the
Speaker:ride, but they didn't think about it. Well, you were yucking it
Speaker:up with me about your member guest at the Moose Club.
Speaker:And uh, I think I told
Speaker:you to call walks. Mhm. I think
Speaker:I told you to call walks. And. But now
Speaker:looking back on it, had I not played, I should have just
Speaker:said, why can't I be your partner, bud? Because at that time
Speaker:I was not playing in this event.
Speaker:>> RB: Well, for a couple of reasons, I don't think that you would have
Speaker:done it. Okay, um, well,
Speaker:for. You know, you are, but you're
Speaker:a little snooty. Um, well,
Speaker:I'm not snooty when it comes to that kind of stuff.
Speaker:You're a little snooty. Like, if I'm gonna take time out of my day, I
Speaker:want it to be a good spot. Like, dude, I'm sorry, but
Speaker:yeah, a.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Little bit at all. Uh, I do
Speaker:not. No. Oh, dude.
Speaker:>> RB: And so that's why this is.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I got a bone to pick with you.
Speaker:>> RB: This is why I didn't really like even
Speaker:I kind of had you on the list. But at the same time I'm like,
Speaker:he's gonna say no, this is stupid.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Listen, it's not that I don't want to. And it's, uh,
Speaker:it's not snooty. It's just that sometimes I
Speaker:need to bide my time a little more carefully.
Speaker:You know, I got other people I gotta think about these
Speaker:days. So naturally.
Speaker:>> RB: So naturally, now we're playing here we go. Day event.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Like two days. I
Speaker:know. And who knows, dude? Like, as of
Speaker:now I am. But things could change between now and then
Speaker:with me. You know that. But dude, snooty, what
Speaker:the hell are you talking about? I mean,
Speaker:I play anywhere with anyone. What is
Speaker:that? He's showing me something on the screen.
Speaker:>> RB: That's a, um.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Oh, that's your championship from Pelican.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, that's my championship trophy from
Speaker:Pelican Golf Club. Um, we got them
Speaker:in. They're beautiful. That's at the clubhouse. For those of
Speaker:you it will never see, it looks, uh, like.
Speaker:And snooty. Uh, she's
Speaker:b. Cats and I were one for one this year,
Speaker:so hopefully we're two for two because Neil Walker is
Speaker:my partner at the Moose Club this year.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: And. And you might have more fun with Neil than me anyways.
Speaker:>> RB: Probably.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: You know, we don't necessarily get bent on the same level, right?
Speaker:I mean, you. You and me, I'm talking
Speaker:I mean, we do when. But it was funny because
Speaker:I was thinking, you know, gee, it's like this scene in that
Speaker:movie where I'm like, wait a second, why didn't I just
Speaker:invite myself? Like, pull a Piering off and
Speaker:be like, dude, I'll be your partner. What are we doing? You know
Speaker:what I mean?
Speaker:>> RB: Which, speaking of Steve Piering, we dog
Speaker:them all the time. I do want to say
Speaker:congratulations to Steve Piering and his partner, who, I
Speaker:don't know. They won a member guest at.
Speaker:It was, I think, a municipal place down
Speaker:in Richmond. Um, Just kidding. It
Speaker:was a nice country club, but they won the whole member guest.
Speaker:They won their flight, went into the horse race. He chipped in for
Speaker:Eagles, so he says. I don't know if that's actually true,
Speaker:but congratulations to Steve Piering. Way to play,
Speaker:dude. It's amazing when you play with people that you like to have fun
Speaker:with what the outcome is in a member guest.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, I mean, uh, it's
Speaker:spectacular to see him get to the finish line. I
Speaker:mean, because the guy's been sure as hell grinding on it for.
Speaker:We know how long long. I mean, uh, my
Speaker:guy was faced. Congrats.
Speaker:>> RB: He was FaceTiming me with two matches ago. I'm like, steve,
Speaker:have we not learned the other member guests?
Speaker:You tell me that you're leading this, that. And never pans out, but,
Speaker:like, just go play the golf. But I am glad and I am
Speaker:excited that he has a major championship under his
Speaker:belt in 2025, the year of Steve peering.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: You know, the thing with Steve. Yeah, that's awesome. The thing with
Speaker:Steve, you know, he'll. He'll throw the blame on. On
Speaker:the partner a little bit, you know, in terms of why he
Speaker:didn't play great, why. Why the team didn't do as well.
Speaker:Partner kind of gets it, you know, like me, he's like, it's just you,
Speaker:Bash. It's like, it's just you, uh, for whatever reason, I play
Speaker:terrible when I play with you. And I'm like,
Speaker:well, Steve, I don't really think that's true because
Speaker:I don't think that I, you know,
Speaker:bring you down. But I'm. I'm playing my own ball and
Speaker:I'm helping you find yours. So I don't know what you mean by
Speaker:that, but he doesn't seem to think that.
Speaker:But I'm happy for him. I'm happy for him nonetheless.
Speaker:And, uh, it's. It's not easy to win a member guest
Speaker:dude, which I haven't played in A member guest this
Speaker:year. I don't plan on playing in m. A member guest this year.
Speaker:Am I upset about it? Not really.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah. I mean, you. You haven't. It's been, you know, the. The Pete
Speaker:Dye member guest just happened. Pikewood national
Speaker:member guest just happened. You know, maybe he took a little
Speaker:hiatus for a few years, and that's fine. Dude.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Well, I think the one that I do miss more than any of them is
Speaker:Petao because of all
Speaker:the friends and, you know, just that
Speaker:vibe of being there, not having to leave the property. Everything's right
Speaker:there, you know, it's nostalgic in a way, with you and me.
Speaker:>> RB: It is.
Speaker:And I'm going to ask you, um, that we're on the member
Speaker:guest because it is the season of member guests right now.
Speaker:What do you look for in a member guest
Speaker:and a member guest partner?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Oh, uh, someone you can have fun with, really.
Speaker:You know, I mean, frankly, like Steve,
Speaker:for example, at Pronghorn, I have fun with
Speaker:him. You know, it's hard to watch it from time to time,
Speaker:but at the end of the day, I do have fun with him. I genuinely have fun with
Speaker:him. I look forward to it. So I think I'm looking at that right
Speaker:out the gate is if I can have fun with this person. Is it
Speaker:someone I rip? If it's someone I really don't know too
Speaker:well, you know, just like an Instagram buddy that, like, you know, the modern
Speaker:day pen pals and they're inviting me to a member guest. Probably
Speaker:gonna say no. You know, just entering some unchartered
Speaker:waters at that point. Yeah. Really? I think that's.
Speaker:That's what, that's what it comes down to.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Is can you have fun for three or four days with that person?
Speaker:>> RB: You know, in your favorite part of a member guest,
Speaker:what would that be? Is it the matches? Is it the
Speaker:hang?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Uh, it's number one, the matches, but then
Speaker:the hang afterwards, you know? But I
Speaker:like member guests where you don't. When you don't have to leave. I've been
Speaker:spoiled.
Speaker:>> RB: Those are the best.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Because I'm snooty like that, you know.
Speaker:>> RB: You're snooty about.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, like Pete, I don't have to leave and just stay there. I
Speaker:walk up to the tour bus and I'll never crash my head at.
Speaker:>> RB: Night calling you snooty. Which, by the way, people, Brian is
Speaker:as far from snooty as it gets. It's just
Speaker:there's a little part of him, um, about that coming to The
Speaker:Moose M Club. And I get it, dude, you're embarrassed and all that stuff,
Speaker:so.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I'm not embarrassed, okay? Like today
Speaker:you invited me up. Well actually you didn't invite me up, but I was just looking for
Speaker:a game and you're like, why don't you roll up to the Moose Club? I'm teeing off at
Speaker:7:15, but well, okay, so I want to leave at 6.
Speaker:6 o' clock. Rolled her to Moose Club. You know,
Speaker:I really didn't want to do that.
Speaker:>> RB: Mhm.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I really didn't. I mean, I get it.
Speaker:But you know, maybe if it was, maybe if it was 9 o' clock, then I
Speaker:could leave at 7:30 then. Yeah, you know what?
Speaker:>> RB: What? But, but if that was the thing, why wouldn't you
Speaker:be like hey dude, if you're playing nine, I would be there. But you never said
Speaker:that because you never want to come.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: But I also know that you're like strict to your schedule,
Speaker:dude. Like you had 7:30 planned for a month and a half
Speaker:on sat on whatever day it is.
Speaker:>> RB: Put that together on Wednesday.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: But all right, if I would have bumped you by half hour, your day would have been
Speaker:off. You'd been off axis. We'd have been looking at Jupiter.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, true.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Uh, Jeff Bezos, speaking of Jupiter
Speaker:and all these rich people, I mean, my man just got tied the
Speaker:knot in, in uh, Venice. I mean that's,
Speaker:that was a little snooty.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah. Did you see who he, the girl he
Speaker:married was dating? Tony Gonzalez. You remember
Speaker:Tony Gonzalez, the tight end from the Kansas City Chiefs. That's. That
Speaker:was his ex girlfriend bud.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: And, and he played for Atlanta. I feel.
Speaker:>> RB: The Falcons.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker:>> RB: Did he play for the Chiefs?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I didn't know that. I don't know. I don't think he ever played for the
Speaker:Chiefs.
Speaker:>> RB: I got the Falcons and the Chiefs mixed
Speaker:up there a little bit. Sorry fam. Um, he played
Speaker:for the Falcons. In fact, Jeff got.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: She kind of was like just rolling in like.
Speaker:Yeah. I mean, you know,
Speaker:breasts are just all pushed up and she's just looking
Speaker:like, you know, this is it. You know, I mean,
Speaker:kind of things. But I mean everyone in the world was there but you
Speaker:and me.
Speaker:>> RB: Yeah, apparently.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: But the US Open, we talked a little bit about that on
Speaker:the last episode. Uh, which certainly had some
Speaker:repercussions following the US Open, you know, Windham
Speaker:Clark addressing the media, all this, that and
Speaker:the other. But what was your biggest takeaway
Speaker:from that major championship? And what's your
Speaker:opinion on how the PGA Tour
Speaker:structures Their tournaments. Now, you know, we're
Speaker:in the first part of July and there's really only,
Speaker:there's one major left. That's it.
Speaker:>> RB: What I took away from the U.S. open was
Speaker:you're never out of it. Even though you think you might be, uh, six, seven
Speaker:shots, you're never out of it. Keep fighting hard,
Speaker:keep, keep playing hard. You don't know what's going to happen. There were
Speaker:so many elements that day that were getting thrown at
Speaker:different players, and JJ Spawn just kind of hung around, did his thing,
Speaker:and he was the one hoisting the trophy at the end.
Speaker:As far as the scheduling is concerned.
Speaker:I do like the PGA
Speaker:in August, actually. I would
Speaker:like it to go Augusta
Speaker:US Open, pga
Speaker:than the British Open. I do like the British Open.
Speaker:Finishing, finishing the year off, uh, in the
Speaker:majors. But again, like you said, come July, dude, majors are
Speaker:over. You got the Ryder cup this year. It's a Ryder cup
Speaker:year.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah. And that's fun to watch, you know, for a minute.
Speaker:But, you know, it is. The Ryder Cup's
Speaker:awesome to watch this year. It's in New York, so that'll be, that'll be dope.
Speaker:But, um, no, I just feel like.
Speaker:And maybe it's just time in general. You know, time
Speaker:goes by fast, but man, I just, I
Speaker:just feel like we were all amped up for the first major
Speaker:of the year, and now we're
Speaker:staring at the last major of the year here in a couple weeks.
Speaker:And then outside of that, the, you know, the
Speaker:high marked or whatever they're called,
Speaker:the regular events
Speaker:that are signature now, I mean, that shit's
Speaker:all over, you know. So I'm sitting there watching the
Speaker:Rocket Classic at Detroit Country Club, which looks like a
Speaker:phenomenal track, but I mean, it has to be like the
Speaker:worst, like, participated event on the
Speaker:PGA Tour.
Speaker:>> RB: It's tough. So it's, it's fun to watch because they're
Speaker:taking it deep and you got to score. So that is fun and aspect. But
Speaker:yeah, like you said, I mean, there's not a lot of people there, man. Doesn't
Speaker:look like a lot going on in Detroit for that, that
Speaker:event.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Um, I mean, that tournament was
Speaker:awesome though, because out of nowhere,
Speaker:whoever the guy, I don't even know who this Aldrich Park
Speaker:Gator is. I have no idea where he is, but he was out of it
Speaker:for a little bit. I mean, he was leading going into Sunday,
Speaker:but then he kind of fell back. And then you, uh, had Chris
Speaker:Kirk finished 22 under, thinking he's going to ride it
Speaker:to the end. And now it goes into a three
Speaker:man playoff between him, Portager
Speaker:and Grayer's men. So that, that was
Speaker:exciting. You know, that was exciting part. But I mean,
Speaker:watching Ricky Fowler fumble again, not make cut.
Speaker:I mean, some of these other guys that you're kind of rooting on.
Speaker:I don't know. Ben Griffin though, with those shades,
Speaker:dude. I mean, I wear aviators too, but this cat, I don't know
Speaker:if it's. If, if they're his fit. I just don't. I
Speaker:don't know.
Speaker:>> RB: Well, you know why he's wearing them?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Why?
Speaker:>> RB: Apparently he had eye surgery. He had a bunch of floaters in
Speaker:his eyes. And he has to wear them because if dust gets in his
Speaker:eyes or sand or something, it could really affect him. So he's got to
Speaker:wear like these big protective sunglasses, which they are
Speaker:big and I mean, but, uh, they're protecting the next golfer
Speaker:ever. But how about the year he's had?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I didn't know that.
Speaker:>> RB: I mean, he's playing unbelievable. But
Speaker:like you look at, dude, the big question is Keegan Bradley.
Speaker:He's actually get. He's going to make this darn team.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Well, and he should have. Yeah, he should.
Speaker:That was a, that was a fun little tournament. You know, watching him
Speaker:win up at the, uh, the Travelers.
Speaker:>> RB: Maybe.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Hey, maybe. Is it
Speaker:true that Tommy Fleetwood has never
Speaker:won on PGA Tour? Never won, and he's made
Speaker:like 30 million.
Speaker:>> RB: Insane. Insane, dude.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I saw that and I thought to myself, there's no
Speaker:way he hasn't won. He's won.
Speaker:>> RB: Let me ask you this. Would you rather
Speaker:play a PGA Tour career and win $40 million
Speaker:or have one PGA Tour win?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I mean, I'd probably. That's a good one.
Speaker:I don't know, man. I mean, weighing
Speaker:the options out here, I'm going back and forth. I'd probably just
Speaker:rather play for fun and never
Speaker:win and make 40 on the course.
Speaker:>> RB: You want to play on the lift Tour? That was a, um, question.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I mean,
Speaker:that's right. Yeah. Like Brooks be in the
Speaker:mix? I mean, you're in the mix a little bit, but I mean, you're not winning
Speaker:anything.
Speaker:>> RB: Right, Right.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Uh, and then this past weekend, we also had
Speaker:at the Broadmoor, the, uh, the US Senior
Speaker:Open, which. That was a lot of fun to watch, man. Potty got
Speaker:it done. He almost killed the guy from NBC, which is
Speaker:great. His little Irish rant. Yeah.
Speaker:Roger, did you see that?
Speaker:>> RB: Saw it, dude. You know what, though?
Speaker:I think his whole thing was where he was standing while, um, he's
Speaker:hitting shots. And I don't mind that. I don't mind you complaining about that
Speaker:because, uh, m. If I see you in my sight line, like,
Speaker:why'd you gotta move it?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Well, but, you know, it's like, potty
Speaker:was just like, you just don't stand there. You just don't.
Speaker:And. And. And he's standing there going, like,
Speaker:what do you mean? I wasn't standing. And then he just says, you
Speaker:just don't stand there. You know better. You just don't.
Speaker:That's all they were doing, bickering back and forth.
Speaker:Like, right.
Speaker:>> RB: Right now is not a great time to be in media in the PGA Tour,
Speaker:as we've gathered. It's not great,
Speaker:dude, because I don't know if there's a PGA Tour play right
Speaker:now that is super happy with media.
Speaker:And, um, I mean, I think it's the bigger players
Speaker:that are a little unhappy, but, man, the media
Speaker:is getting it left and right.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I mean, you damn right they are.
Speaker:I mean, my God, between CNN and the golf
Speaker:media, everyone's freaking getting, like, just.
Speaker:>> RB: I mean, Colin Mortal is looking for a caddy, but why isn't Will
Speaker:getting his phone call?
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Will Davidson, where you at, boy? Collie's looking for a
Speaker:caddy. And that's another guy that just went off on
Speaker:the media more cow the other day.
Speaker:>> RB: I want. He, uh, thinks he's Tommy tough nuts behind. Behind the
Speaker:microphone. I. I don't. I'm not a fan of him. I'm not
Speaker:a fan of him. But nonetheless, it's been
Speaker:exciting on the PGA Tour. I feel like the PGA Tour is
Speaker:getting a little more exciting over the last few months, more so
Speaker:than the last couple years. Um, getting
Speaker:some cool finishes and. So
Speaker:good on that.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I totally. I totally agree. Like, I
Speaker:am, like, if you guys are. Are
Speaker:in the golf and you're watching golf, you're watching something
Speaker:right now happen that this
Speaker:kind of inner shift of the PGA Tour.
Speaker:You got some of these players that you. You don't know,
Speaker:frankly, you never heard of them. Well, they're making a little bit of a name for
Speaker:themselves. They're having some good, good tournaments, putting
Speaker:good weeks. You got guys that you want to watch and see succeed
Speaker:that are falling back. Spieth Fowler,
Speaker:Max Homa. And then you got the
Speaker:storyline with. With the two top guns, you know, McElroy
Speaker:and Scheffler. But now you're not really gonna see him
Speaker:much. So I think the PGA
Speaker:Tour is exciting, other than the fact that as I mentioned
Speaker:earlier, watching that
Speaker:tournament this past weekend was,
Speaker:you know, it just, uh. But it was good for the action. Like you said,
Speaker:they had to go deep. They had to go deep. I
Speaker:think you're right. It's.
Speaker:>> RB: Well, I'm excited, you know, the. The chase and
Speaker:birdies, too, man. We have 52 guys signed up,
Speaker:and I. Excited for this.
Speaker:Um, it's gonna be the largest pot ever. Um, we're
Speaker:both. We're playing both rounds on Mystic Rock at
Speaker:Nemacol. Pairing party Friday night or
Speaker:Sunday night. Sorry. Um, at Fawn and
Speaker:Fable, and. And we got a lot of good players this time, man. I'm
Speaker:excited to see what the cutoff is like. I got to do handicaps now
Speaker:and all that.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Jazz, you've been putting a lot of work into this, man,
Speaker:and, uh, it doesn't go unnoticed,
Speaker:let me just say that. So I appreciate that, uh, everybody
Speaker:should. Should, uh, appreciate what you've been doing. But,
Speaker:you know, I'm working on trying to get some people to take some, uh,
Speaker:content, you know, because last year, PSHP hooked it up for us.
Speaker:We got it two years later this year, he hit
Speaker:me up. He's back. It's still in Utah, and I
Speaker:need someone to get in on the pairings dinner and
Speaker:get some good content of the teams. You know, the teams. We
Speaker:all. We all yell when we hear the name. You know, we pick a name out of the hat, and
Speaker:it's like, Mike Oates. And then it's like Jared
Speaker:Detwiler and was like, yeah, that's
Speaker:awesome. It's like. It's like old WWF
Speaker:days when you had the tag team partners. But I am
Speaker:super stoked about it. We got Zambos rolling in with IP this
Speaker:year. We got John Barry bringing another clan
Speaker:in. Gentry's coming in with. With another buddy.
Speaker:Um, a lot of former guests are chasing
Speaker:birdies. A lot of buddies.
Speaker:>> RB: Sorkin's back in the field.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Sorkin's back in the mix. This is the real deal,
Speaker:guys. We don't play around.
Speaker:>> RB: Exciting. Like, it's exciting. And the gifts were. I
Speaker:mean, I'm still waiting for a batch of gifts. They're on
Speaker:California time, though.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: I'm watching my puppy through the window. Just absolutely
Speaker:terrorized the bed. I mean, just eating and chewing
Speaker:his bed up right now as I do this. I
Speaker:mean, I, uh, like.
Speaker:>> RB: So training's going well.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Training was great. He. But I don't know.
Speaker:I. I don't know what he's doing. He's just. Has a little bit of
Speaker:aggression. Dude. The other night, he runs out the Door,
Speaker:sees people, runs after them, and then they're like, oh, my
Speaker:God. And then he just kind of. I
Speaker:said, he's super friendly. Just give him a minute. And he
Speaker:did. He just, uh, wags his tail like a normal
Speaker:dog and then it's fine. But out the gate he's a little.
Speaker:>> RB: Scared of people and all good.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: So he. So he barks. But
Speaker:I went up to Nemacolan, uh, last
Speaker:Monday, Adam Schwinn, our good buddy Sweeney, came in from
Speaker:Nashville, crashed at my pad. You
Speaker:know, he's like, bash, I'm coming back to Nashville from
Speaker:Baltimore.
Speaker:>> RB: Which I feel is be careful out of the way, but whatever.
Speaker:>> Jonathan: Yeah, totally. Yeah. But you know what? I. I
Speaker:was here for it. I'm like, yeah, man, absolutely.
Speaker:I'll hang with you. I want to hang. So he rolled in Sunday night at
like 11 00:21:06
30. I was in bed.
like 11 00:21:09
Um, so text me when he rolled up,
like 11 00:21:11
opened the door and caught, uh, up with him for an
like 11 00:21:14
hour. And I said, buddy, I gotta go to bed. I'm normally in bed
by 8 00:21:17
30. But, um, went up to
by 8 00:21:19
Nemacolin on Monday night and played
by 8 00:21:22
in the evening on Shepherd's, which is the first time this year I played
by 8 00:21:25
Shepherd's. And, uh, it was great.
by 8 00:21:28
It was awesome. There was not a soul on the
by 8 00:21:31
golf course. And are you. Would you
by 8 00:21:34
rather play in the morning or like, tee off
by 8 00:21:36
at 4 in the afternoon?
by 8 00:21:39
>> RB: I'm like, different golf courses. A little weird about
by 8 00:21:41
that. Like, you tell me a P. Die
by 8 00:21:44
or, um, Pikewood
by 8 00:21:47
or Yawk. I'm. I'm. Let's roll in the morning.
by 8 00:21:50
But I love those neolin rounds around 4:30,
by 8 00:21:53
5 o' clock when the shadows are starting to cast themselves.
by 8 00:21:57
It is amazing. It is so good.
by 8 00:21:59
>> Jonathan: Dude. It was, it was, it was great. Like, I was
by 8 00:22:02
like, I need to start doing this more often. It was so damn
by 8 00:22:05
hot though. You know, you kind of get those drinks and
by 8 00:22:08
they got sugar in them. I don't like drinking sugary drinks. So I was like, I would,
by 8 00:22:10
but I was so. I was so. But anyways, long story
by 8 00:22:13
short, I started swiping my
by 8 00:22:16
driver. Dude, when I tell you that my
by 8 00:22:19
driver, My ball is
by 8 00:22:22
going 30 yards, right, with a
by 8 00:22:25
slice. I'm not exaggerating.
by 8 00:22:27
Like, that is no exaggeration. Now
by 8 00:22:30
every now and then I'll. I'll square it up and
by 8 00:22:33
hit it. But my misses, uh,
by 8 00:22:36
top of the top of the head and just going. And
by 8 00:22:39
I'm like, what the hell? So maybe I'll give Steve
by 8 00:22:42
Fearing a little credit here. I was telling him about it because he was asking me. I was hit
by 8 00:22:45
ball. He's like, well, maybe your shoulders are open. And I was
by 8 00:22:48
like, you know what? You might be right. So
by 8 00:22:51
we went down to Pete Dye on Tuesday, me and Adam. Another
by 8 00:22:54
great day. They just kind of blew the greens up
by 8 00:22:57
a little bit. But, um, got my shoulder
by 8 00:23:00
square to my target line
by 8 00:23:03
and I hit some. I hit a lot more solid,
by 8 00:23:06
I would say, but something is still
by 8 00:23:09
going on with the face and the, you know, the
by 8 00:23:11
manipulation of the face at impact. So I
by 8 00:23:14
went to the range because I'm like, I can't do this, man.
by 8 00:23:17
Like, I just. I've been playing good golf. My irons have
by 8 00:23:20
been good. I've been putting well. You know, I just can't. I
by 8 00:23:23
can't do this. I typically drive the ball well. You
by 8 00:23:26
drive the ball the best. I know, but I'm saying me.
by 8 00:23:30
So I went to the range and I took my old driver because
by 8 00:23:32
I thought maybe it's a shaft issue. You know, the shaft's so important
by 8 00:23:35
in the driver, and maybe the. The tip is not,
by 8 00:23:39
you know, whatever, whatever. But no, that wasn't
by 8 00:23:42
the answer. It was not the driver because my old
by 8 00:23:45
driver did the same thing. So finally I'm like, dude, I'm not even.
by 8 00:23:48
I swear to you. I started doing a drill
by 8 00:23:52
where I put the ball six inches in
by 8 00:23:55
front of my left foot. And I used to do that with my iron to
by 8 00:23:58
just to feel movement through the ball. So
by 8 00:24:00
I started doing it with my driver. I'm teeing the ball up six inches,
by 8 00:24:04
taking my normal stance, swinging, extending at
by 8 00:24:07
the ball. I
by 8 00:24:10
have not hit the center of the face as many times in
by 8 00:24:13
a row as I did doing that drill. Like,
by 8 00:24:16
boom, boom, boom. Every now and
by 8 00:24:19
then, squeak one, pull it a little, it goes a little left.
by 8 00:24:22
>> RB: Mhm.
by 8 00:24:22
>> Jonathan: Um, but I was hitting like. I'm
by 8 00:24:25
like, geez, whiz. So then I just started
by 8 00:24:28
naturally doing it. I'm like, get up to the tee box, and
by 8 00:24:31
I'm gonna be the guy that has his ball
by 8 00:24:34
6 inches in front of his left foot. Could
by 8 00:24:37
I do that? Absolutely. I could do that. Because
by 8 00:24:40
there's something happening. I don't know what it
by 8 00:24:43
is. You know what I mean?
by 8 00:24:45
>> RB: I mean, but it might be temporary for you,
by 8 00:24:48
but it's good. It's good that you. You
by 8 00:24:50
generally it is ball position with. With
by 8 00:24:53
good players, a lot of it is the ball position because,
by 8 00:24:56
you know, the technique's there. But I mean, it's always
by 8 00:24:59
good to have another set of eyes. You know, for me,
by 8 00:25:02
I tend to start getting in my irons
by 8 00:25:05
and stuff, my wedges, I tend to
by 8 00:25:08
get it moving a little too far forward.
by 8 00:25:11
Um, my driver, I don't
by 8 00:25:14
really have trouble with on that. It's always inside
by 8 00:25:17
my left heel, because part of that's my
by 8 00:25:20
routine on my driver. But,
by 8 00:25:22
um. Well, that's always good to have another set of eyes see
by 8 00:25:25
where the ball position is, where you're hitting it. Um,
by 8 00:25:28
because that makes a huge difference on if
by 8 00:25:31
you're hitting it solid or not.
by 8 00:25:33
>> Jonathan: I know, but it's. It's like, I
by 8 00:25:35
haven't changed my ball position. But what's
by 8 00:25:38
wild is the fact that, like, my
by 8 00:25:42
face, where the ball is hitting the. The face is,
by 8 00:25:45
like, super high on the face.
by 8 00:25:48
Like, my teaser. Every T I use, I just break it, like,
by 8 00:25:50
forget about it. There's no sweeping motion with it.
by 8 00:25:53
It's it. So the attack angle has to be pretty
by 8 00:25:56
steep. It's got to be coming down and swinging left
by 8 00:25:59
and coming down on it, because the ball's hitting, like, almost
by 8 00:26:02
on the crown of the head. It's just hitting on the top of.
by 8 00:26:05
>> RB: The face, coming down on top of it instead of
by 8 00:26:08
going through.
by 8 00:26:10
>> Jonathan: Right. And that's what I think I am doing. And
by 8 00:26:13
that's what. I think that. That's why I put the ball up
by 8 00:26:15
to. To catch it on the up.
by 8 00:26:17
>> RB: Well, I was just gonna say that. You watch PGA Tour
by 8 00:26:20
players, some of the better ones that hit the
by 8 00:26:23
driver, they're coming up.
by 8 00:26:27
>> Jonathan: Yeah.
by 8 00:26:27
>> RB: It's not. It's not even straight through. It's
by 8 00:26:30
an upward motion. And that's why that.
by 8 00:26:33
The flight of the ball and the carry is so much for these guys,
by 8 00:26:36
because they're catching it on the up. Um, with their drivers.
by 8 00:26:39
>> Jonathan: Yeah.
by 8 00:26:39
>> RB: And something else that I. I mentioned this to you
by 8 00:26:42
before. Nothing golf related at all.
by 8 00:26:45
Um, but see it on Instagram, I see it on Facebook,
by 8 00:26:48
and it bothers me, dude, like no other.
by 8 00:26:51
And that is.
by 8 00:26:52
>> Jonathan: Tell me about it.
by 8 00:26:53
>> RB: These people that they show up to
by 8 00:26:56
a police station and they're filming,
by 8 00:26:59
and an officer comes out and says, hey, you can't be here.
by 8 00:27:02
And then that person that's filming says, well, I'm a
by 8 00:27:05
taxpayer. I can most certainly be here. Don't
by 8 00:27:08
tell me what to do. I pay your salary. Blah, blah,
by 8 00:27:10
blah, blah. And the cop says stuff back, and they
by 8 00:27:13
exchange words, and then all of a sudden, you know, all hell
by 8 00:27:16
breaks loose. You have to be the
by 8 00:27:19
biggest loser in the world to go
by 8 00:27:21
do these videos and
by 8 00:27:24
antagonize people to get a reaction so that you
by 8 00:27:27
can do something. These police officers
by 8 00:27:31
already have a tough Day. All right.
by 8 00:27:33
Dealing with. With the public. It annoys
by 8 00:27:36
me so much to watch these videos and infuriates me that they're just doing
by 8 00:27:39
this to get reactions out of cops so that they can
by 8 00:27:42
sue or get clicks or whatever.
by 8 00:27:45
It's so stupid. It annoys me so
by 8 00:27:48
much.
by 8 00:27:49
>> Jonathan: Do you know what the success rate is on. On
by 8 00:27:51
protesting? Like, has any law has ever been
by 8 00:27:54
changed because of protesting or. Or
by 8 00:27:57
anything like that?
by 8 00:27:58
>> RB: Uh, when there's protesting, they just look the
by 8 00:28:01
other way.
by 8 00:28:02
>> Jonathan: Yeah.
by 8 00:28:02
>> RB: Nobody gets trouble type thing.
by 8 00:28:04
>> Jonathan: No. And I guess my point to that is. Yeah. Like, why? Like,
by 8 00:28:07
I understand people have a right to express their feelings and,
by 8 00:28:10
you know, exercise their rights as an American citizen,
by 8 00:28:13
legally an American citizen, but
by 8 00:28:16
I. I know what you mean. Like, that's just wasting your. What.
by 8 00:28:19
Why are you wasting your time rolling up to the guy that's
by 8 00:28:22
actually trying to protect and serve in this whole thing?
by 8 00:28:25
>> RB: I pay. I pay your salary. You work for me. Okay, bud?
by 8 00:28:28
Like, let's put the camera down. I want you to go to work. How
by 8 00:28:31
about that one?
by 8 00:28:32
>> Jonathan: How about that one? Yeah.
by 8 00:28:33
>> RB: So that you can pay those taxes.
by 8 00:28:36
>> Jonathan: Yeah.
by 8 00:28:36
>> RB: They should just be like, hey, let's see if you're in
by 8 00:28:39
good tech standing with us, and then we'll worry about this conversation,
by 8 00:28:42
Right?
by 8 00:28:43
>> Jonathan: Yeah. I feel your pain on that, dude, and I know
by 8 00:28:46
that bothers you, so I'm here if you need the vent, because
by 8 00:28:49
that. I'm serious. That's.
by 8 00:28:52
I don't know, man. The world's crazy.
by 8 00:28:54
>> RB: It is crazy. And you can't. And everything's filmed, everything's
by 8 00:28:57
recorded, and you can't give reaction or something. Whatever.
by 8 00:29:00
Um, and the other thing, dude, I'm super stoked for you. You're
by 8 00:29:03
heading out the Vale for a few, um, what, a couple
by 8 00:29:06
weeks? Well, 10 days or whatever, dude.
by 8 00:29:08
>> Jonathan: Yeah.
by 8 00:29:09
>> RB: Just. I have to tell you, one of my favorite
by 8 00:29:11
restaurants is out there in van. You want to guess?
by 8 00:29:14
>> Jonathan: Winona.
by 8 00:29:15
>> RB: Lenona. Um, just get it
by 8 00:29:18
to go box, freeze it, and ship it to me.
by 8 00:29:21
>> Jonathan: I could do that. And, you know, happy
by 8 00:29:24
anniversary again to you and Summer, because
by 8 00:29:27
I sent you a picture of you two, and that was from
by 8 00:29:29
Lenona. I took a picture of you guys.
by 8 00:29:31
>> RB: That was very nice. Yes.
by 8 00:29:33
>> Jonathan: Yeah. No, I can't wait. I
by 8 00:29:36
love.
by 8 00:29:36
>> RB: What's the Japanese place that you enjoy out there?
by 8 00:29:39
>> Jonathan: Matsuhisha.
by 8 00:29:40
>> RB: Yeah, Walks loves that place.
by 8 00:29:43
>> Jonathan: Yeah, Walks. Walks knows the manager.
by 8 00:29:46
So Matsuhisa, you can't really get a resi.
by 8 00:29:48
Like, you get a resi if you call a month in advance,
by 8 00:29:51
but if you're calling the week of. And you're like, yo, can I get something at
by 8 00:29:54
7? The answer is probably gonna be no.
by 8 00:29:56
>> RB: Yeah, not with walks.
by 8 00:29:58
>> Jonathan: Walks makes a phone call. Actually, I play with the guy. I play with
by 8 00:30:01
the guy with walks. We played Cordiera. Yeah, we played
by 8 00:30:04
Cordiera.
by 8 00:30:05
>> RB: Um, you can fish it all while you're out there.
by 8 00:30:07
>> Jonathan: Potentially. Yeah. Looking like maybe a
by 8 00:30:10
rafting. Floating trip.
by 8 00:30:12
>> RB: Nice trip.
by 8 00:30:13
>> Jonathan: Trip.
by 8 00:30:13
>> RB: Make sure you wear hikes preserver, Bud. I know that
by 8 00:30:16
hikes.
by 8 00:30:16
>> Jonathan: Um, I'm potentially taking the skinnies. I just
by 8 00:30:19
don't. I haven't at this point. I
by 8 00:30:22
probably should because I'll be thinking about my driver. If I don't touch a club
by 8 00:30:25
for eight days, I'll be thinking about my driver.
by 8 00:30:27
>> RB: Stayed open to playing, bud.
by 8 00:30:28
>> Jonathan: Yeah, I'm going to do that.
by 8 00:30:30
>> RB: Um, congratulations on getting top
by 8 00:30:32
15 at the state amateur, which gets you an
by 8 00:30:35
exemption into the state Open, which is. Where is it
by 8 00:30:38
this year?
by 8 00:30:39
>> Jonathan: Sleepy, uh, Hollow.
by 8 00:30:40
>> RB: Sleepy Hollow. Love that. That was a home course of Marshall
by 8 00:30:43
University, the Thundering Herd golf team. We loved
by 8 00:30:46
it.
by 8 00:30:46
>> Jonathan: I thought Guy Anne was.
by 8 00:30:48
>> RB: Guy Anne was our main one. And then Sleepy Hollow is our second
by 8 00:30:50
one. And then we would play
by 8 00:30:53
the Greenbrier. We would drive three hours to Greenbrier,
by 8 00:30:56
play 36 holes, and coach wouldn't let us stay there, so we had
by 8 00:30:59
to drive back. So.
by 8 00:31:02
But get you into the state Open at Sleepy
by 8 00:31:05
Hollow, which, that course could actually be pretty good for you. And
by 8 00:31:08
then, um, gets you an exemption in next year at the Greenware.
by 8 00:31:11
So you already know what you're doing next early
by 8 00:31:14
June.
by 8 00:31:15
>> Jonathan: Dude, I. I've played.
by 8 00:31:18
I played good. You know, I mean, I definitely left
by 8 00:31:20
some shots out there and so did everybody else. I'm not the only one. But I left
by 8 00:31:23
some easy shots out there, especially a four putt on the second hole of
by 8 00:31:26
the golf tournament. But any rate, I did not look at my
by 8 00:31:29
phone one time while I was playing golf. Like, it was in
by 8 00:31:32
my bag, dude, straight up. When
by 8 00:31:35
the moment I was going to the first tee, to the
by 8 00:31:38
moment I got done walking off the 18th green, I
by 8 00:31:41
did not see my phone. And, uh, what that does
by 8 00:31:44
for you as a golfer, it really
by 8 00:31:47
allows you to sink into your thoughts relative to golf at
by 8 00:31:50
that moment. So, like, if you hit a bad shot,
by 8 00:31:53
you're kind of married to that thought now to your next
by 8 00:31:56
shot, because you don't have anything to distract
by 8 00:31:59
you. You know, like, if you hit a bad shot playing with. With someone at
by 8 00:32:02
the Moose Club, I know you're gonna pull up Facebook or something.
by 8 00:32:05
You're gonna be like, hey, Derek, did you see this last night,
by 8 00:32:08
and then you're gonna drive your card over to your ball and forget. But, like,
by 8 00:32:11
I couldn't do that.
by 8 00:32:12
>> RB: Yeah.
by 8 00:32:13
>> Jonathan: So.
by 8 00:32:13
>> RB: Probably felt good.
by 8 00:32:16
>> Jonathan: It did. It did. But. But, dude, I
by 8 00:32:18
died so hard laughing
by 8 00:32:21
whenever I was in Zambos garage with
by 8 00:32:24
Ian and Blake. Zambos and Blake
by 8 00:32:26
can get a little extreme. I mean, Blake's a genius. He's into
by 8 00:32:29
chess. He loves the golf.
by 8 00:32:32
You know, he'll talk to you more about the golf swing and theories behind
by 8 00:32:35
the golf swing than anything. But,
by 8 00:32:39
you know, he. He's just in there doing his thing. He was working on
by 8 00:32:42
his little putting drill in the garage, and Ian
by 8 00:32:45
FaceTimes you. Dude. Pep, what's up?
by 8 00:32:48
I'm like, yo, Pep, what's up, dude? We're just. We're
by 8 00:32:51
just hanging, you know, and Blake's in the background
by 8 00:32:54
hitting some putts, and you and Ian
by 8 00:32:57
are talking, and I'm sitting there listening to
by 8 00:33:00
you guys, and you're watching Blake putt,
by 8 00:33:03
and you said something like.
by 8 00:33:05
>> RB: All I said was, you might want to work on that. That grip.
by 8 00:33:08
That, uh, putting grip.
by 8 00:33:10
>> Jonathan: That's right. That's all you said. Now, meanwhile, people,
by 8 00:33:13
Blake has no idea who the hell Pepe is on the.
by 8 00:33:16
>> RB: Phone, and I can't see him. I literally couldn't see.
by 8 00:33:19
I could just tell he was putting. I couldn't see a thing.
by 8 00:33:21
>> Jonathan: So he's got no idea who this cat is on the FaceTime, and all he
by 8 00:33:24
hears is, you might want to work on your grip. I'm
by 8 00:33:27
telling you what, dude. That set him off like no other,
by 8 00:33:30
and I witnessed it. Who'd
by 8 00:33:33
F for you? Who'd F for you? I'll
by 8 00:33:36
give you. Oh, is that what he
by 8 00:33:39
said? He told me that he would give.
by 8 00:33:40
>> RB: Me a shot of holes, and I said I'd, uh, take it.
by 8 00:33:43
>> Jonathan: That's right. He said a shot of hole, and then he. And then
by 8 00:33:46
the famous dude. Ready? Click.
by 8 00:33:48
>> RB: Hung up on you because he was. He was so hot under his
by 8 00:33:50
collar. Meanwhile, bud, I was just joking around
by 8 00:33:53
saying, you might want to work on my grip just to get him going. And,
by 8 00:33:56
I mean, if that got him going like that. He doesn't want
by 8 00:33:59
to play golf with me, man, because.
by 8 00:34:02
>> Jonathan: No. Uh, he might kill him.
by 8 00:34:05
You guys. You guys. Well, I
by 8 00:34:08
mean, I love Blake. Blake's. He's hilarious.
by 8 00:34:10
>> RB: He's a nice kid. I've met him, um, a bunch,
by 8 00:34:12
but.
by 8 00:34:13
>> Jonathan: He just didn't know who it was, I guess, apparently. And you know. And
by 8 00:34:16
you know what? I was out at the range
by 8 00:34:19
once. This was earlier this spring. I'm just
by 8 00:34:22
Hitting balls, you know, And Blake comes over to the range to
by 8 00:34:25
start hitting balls, and he's watching me hit and.
by 8 00:34:29
And he starts getting behind me, like, grabbing my arm,
by 8 00:34:31
taking me through the backswing, and I'm like,
by 8 00:34:34
all right.
by 8 00:34:35
And he's like, you know, you, you. You got to
by 8 00:34:38
do this to hit this penetrating flight, you know, you flight
by 8 00:34:40
it. I'm like, okay.
by 8 00:34:44
But like, he's given me one of those old school.
by 8 00:34:47
Like, he's just giving me a lesson. I didn't even ask.
by 8 00:34:50
I mean, he just got my arm back. I'm standing
by 8 00:34:53
there. It's like he's behind me kind of in a bear hug
by 8 00:34:56
move. And I'm feeling like, what the hell
by 8 00:34:59
is going on here? What is he doing? But
by 8 00:35:02
he's super smart. I love him. I do love him.
by 8 00:35:05
And I'm excited to see Zambos at the, uh,
by 8 00:35:08
two man. But, um, that's what made me think about that
by 8 00:35:11
story. Whenever you were talking about the AM at the Greenbrier. I
by 8 00:35:14
brought that up because that was a good one, dude. That was funny.
by 8 00:35:16
>> RB: That was a good one. I kind of forgot about it with this being
by 8 00:35:19
the, uh, fourth of July, you know, the
by 8 00:35:22
big thing is. And again, you know, not that you're
by 8 00:35:25
snooty, but I don't know if you really like to get down with a
by 8 00:35:27
cheeseburger. But, um, he.
by 8 00:35:29
>> Jonathan: Shut the hell up, dude.
by 8 00:35:32
>> RB: But what is your ideal
by 8 00:35:35
fourth of July picnic plate look
by 8 00:35:38
like?
by 8 00:35:38
>> Jonathan: Oh, dude. I mean, you gotta go with some BBQ
by 8 00:35:41
chicken.
by 8 00:35:42
>> RB: Mhm.
by 8 00:35:43
>> Jonathan: Couple dogs. Dude. I've been on the. So for a snooty guy
by 8 00:35:46
like me, I've been on the dog train lately.
by 8 00:35:48
>> RB: It goes on your dog.
by 8 00:35:49
>> Jonathan: Ketchup, mustard, and sometimes a little bit of relish.
by 8 00:35:52
>> RB: Okay.
by 8 00:35:53
>> Jonathan: Keep it plain. A nice brioche bun. You know,
by 8 00:35:56
none of those sunny bun shit. Just a nice brioche.
by 8 00:35:59
I've been on a dog lately, so if
by 8 00:36:02
there were some dogs on the grill, I'd throw a couple in a bun and
by 8 00:36:05
eat them. Uh-huh. Um, but barbecue chicken would
by 8 00:36:08
be my. And then maybe a little macaroni
by 8 00:36:11
salad, man.
by 8 00:36:11
>> RB: See, just a little.
by 8 00:36:12
>> Jonathan: With a little crunch.
by 8 00:36:14
>> RB: See, I'm. I like a potato, uh,
by 8 00:36:16
salad. Love deviled eggs. Oh, love
by 8 00:36:19
deviled eggs. Um, some. Some
by 8 00:36:22
barbecue chicken wings. And then I go
by 8 00:36:25
with the. The hot dogs. I. I like a
by 8 00:36:28
little coleslaw, onion
by 8 00:36:31
relish and mustard on my
by 8 00:36:33
dog.
by 8 00:36:34
>> Jonathan: Dude, that's all American right there.
by 8 00:36:37
>> RB: A lot in a lot of the barbecues, you
by 8 00:36:40
know, they don't have chili readily accessible
by 8 00:36:43
for a Carolina Dog, which is chili
by 8 00:36:46
and the coleslaw and a little mustard and onion on there.
by 8 00:36:49
But that's kind of. I love that. That is
by 8 00:36:51
that, man. I can't wait.
by 8 00:36:53
>> Jonathan: Now, I know you're a sucker for dessert. I know you love your big
by 8 00:36:56
chocolate cakes and shit like that. So what's your,
by 8 00:36:59
uh. What are you kind of chasing down with
by 8 00:37:02
that after you eat?
by 8 00:37:03
>> RB: I'm like a kid. I like a brownie.
by 8 00:37:06
Well, I love brownies. Or like
by 8 00:37:09
a chocolate chip cookie dough with sprinkles on it.
by 8 00:37:12
>> Jonathan: What about watermelon?
by 8 00:37:15
>> RB: It's okay.
by 8 00:37:16
>> Jonathan: I love watermelon.
by 8 00:37:17
>> RB: Dude. Dude, have you ate this watermelon? This craze of this. What's
by 8 00:37:20
this tataki? The. The, um, Mexican
by 8 00:37:23
seasoning tataki or something?
by 8 00:37:25
>> Jonathan: Yeah. Yeah. I don't know what you're talking about. Yeah. Huh.
by 8 00:37:28
>> RB: Summer, I came home one day, she said, hey. She said, try this
by 8 00:37:31
watermelon. And I tried it. Dude. Out of this world. She
by 8 00:37:33
sprinkled that on the watermelon.
by 8 00:37:35
>> Jonathan: No way. World. Yeah. That little red stuff.
by 8 00:37:38
>> RB: Yes. A little bottle.
by 8 00:37:40
>> Jonathan: Yeah.
by 8 00:37:40
>> RB: You sprinkled on there. And she did. She
by 8 00:37:43
knocked my socks off with that.
by 8 00:37:45
>> Jonathan: Yeah. Uh, uh. He probably knocked herself, too.
by 8 00:37:47
>> RB: Yeah.
by 8 00:37:48
>> Jonathan: Down in St. Lucia. How was St. Lucia?
by 8 00:37:49
>> RB: It was great. It was great. It was great. I got
by 8 00:37:52
fried as you saw the photo, so.
by 8 00:37:55
>> Jonathan: Yeah, you were definitely a lobster.
by 8 00:37:58
That's good, man. I'm glad you guys got away. And the disconnect.
by 8 00:38:01
>> RB: Yeah. But now I'm turning the golf game on. I played three
by 8 00:38:04
full rounds of golf in June. I had a
by 8 00:38:07
little, little hiccup there for a couple weeks, but
by 8 00:38:11
I am turning it on for the moose member
by 8 00:38:14
guest. And then going into the two. Man. So I'm
by 8 00:38:17
going to be playing, um, some golf. And then come
by 8 00:38:20
August, dude, I'm back on the road and I can't wait. I'm super excited to
by 8 00:38:23
get back on the road and out seeing the jewelry stores.
by 8 00:38:26
>> Jonathan: Well, I mean, based upon the last time we played golf,
by 8 00:38:28
bcats forgot he was golfing. So he's
by 8 00:38:31
still working.
by 8 00:38:32
>> RB: Yep.
by 8 00:38:33
>> Jonathan: Um, and, you know, we gotta have a little chat with our
by 8 00:38:35
buddy.
by 8 00:38:36
>> RB: We do have to have a little. We do.
by 8 00:38:37
>> Jonathan: We gotta have a little chat with him because it's.
by 8 00:38:40
I mean, you know, there's two things about
by 8 00:38:43
golfers. Number one,
by 8 00:38:46
when we see a golfer, we're like, you know, what's. What's the
by 8 00:38:49
common talking point? When you see a golfer, you see a buddy
by 8 00:38:52
out somewhere. That's golf. That you know from golf. What do you
by 8 00:38:55
say? We ought to get out sometime. I Mean, Yeah. And
by 8 00:38:57
what's the answer? Yeah, let's do it. Definitely.
by 8 00:39:01
Yeah. And guess what? It never happens, okay? It never
by 8 00:39:03
happened. You end up going back to your comfort
by 8 00:39:06
zone of who you play with, when you play and where.
by 8 00:39:09
You know, I see a guy at Oakmont at the
by 8 00:39:12
US Open bash, we gotta get out, you know, And
by 8 00:39:15
I'm like, shit, yeah, dude, let's go.
by 8 00:39:18
You know, And I would. I'm all, you know,
by 8 00:39:21
I'm not snooty like that. Um, I'd love to do it, but it's like,
by 8 00:39:24
it falls apart. Everything falls apart. It's just
by 8 00:39:27
your comfort zone. So when I get back, it's like, me, you,
by 8 00:39:30
bk, go play. And then the second thing is
by 8 00:39:34
the phones. Absolute awful on the. On the
by 8 00:39:37
chorus. It takes away the whole experience. Yeah.
by 8 00:39:39
>> RB: Now, I remember when you first got our phones, we would leave
by 8 00:39:42
them in the car and leave them in the locker. I would. I would love
by 8 00:39:45
to be. To. To do that sometime, because it would be
by 8 00:39:48
amazing how much you would enjoy your round of golf and. And
by 8 00:39:51
I mean, some of itself afflicted, too. But.
by 8 00:39:54
>> Jonathan: Yeah, no, I know. I'm not picking on
by 8 00:39:57
you, bk. I know you're gonna listen and send us a text, but I'm not.
by 8 00:40:00
I'm not. I'm not.
by 8 00:40:01
>> RB: We just want you to have fun and enjoy a moment.
by 8 00:40:04
>> Jonathan: I want everybody out there who's listening, who wants to
by 8 00:40:07
golf to know that the phone is a huge
by 8 00:40:10
distraction. Now, if you're trying to get some content and, you know,
by 8 00:40:12
post some cool that you want to, you know, feel good about,
by 8 00:40:15
then that's a different story. You do that once and then you edit it
by 8 00:40:18
after golf. All good.
by 8 00:40:20
Um, but while you're playing golf, man, enjoy the
by 8 00:40:23
moment. There's nothing better than just being in the moment.
by 8 00:40:27
>> RB: Y' all getting up with the boys, smoking cigars.
by 8 00:40:29
Um. How many cigars I smoked that day, by the way?
by 8 00:40:32
>> Jonathan: Zero. Yeah. Yeah, you.
by 8 00:40:36
You're. You're doing good.
by 8 00:40:37
>> RB: So, um, I am going to be smoking a
by 8 00:40:40
cigar and maybe lighting some fireworks from the end
by 8 00:40:43
of that, um, here on the Fourth of July.
by 8 00:40:46
And, dude, I hope that you enjoy. And I know that you're gonna.
by 8 00:40:49
Veil's like your little, little piece of heaven for
by 8 00:40:52
you, and I love that for you because you go there and
by 8 00:40:55
you. And I really don't even talk. I really don't even bother you. You don't.
by 8 00:40:58
I don't hear from you. And that's good, because I know that
by 8 00:41:00
you are calm. You're
by 8 00:41:03
out there. You're within nature.
by 8 00:41:06
>> Jonathan: Yeah.
by 8 00:41:06
>> RB: And uh, you know, the ice tub
by 8 00:41:09
and in the hot. All that stuff, dude.
by 8 00:41:12
>> Jonathan: Yeah.
by 8 00:41:12
>> RB: Go enjoy yourself out there. Just eat a nice meal at Lenona for
by 8 00:41:15
me.
by 8 00:41:16
>> Jonathan: I will, actually, uh, I'll eat two good meals for you because I'm going
by 8 00:41:19
twice. But I will talk to you, and, um,
by 8 00:41:22
you know, we'll be in the mix on something, I'm sure some
by 8 00:41:25
baseball game or something. Yeah.
by 8 00:41:27
Um, but if you're planning on lighting
by 8 00:41:30
fireworks, man, just don't blow your hands up.
by 8 00:41:33
Don't do it. You know, just watch. Be a
by 8 00:41:35
spectator. Yeah, be a spectator. Shout out
by 8 00:41:38
to me. Shout out, rb for my. My T
by 8 00:41:41
shirt design. My first T shirt design here. If you guys are watching
by 8 00:41:44
this, it's.
by 8 00:41:46
>> RB: A sweet T shirt. I. I've worn it probably four or
by 8 00:41:49
five times, and I've gotten compliments every time, but I
by 8 00:41:52
was in St. Lucia, and the one worker said,
by 8 00:41:55
reading, swinging easy. He said, swinging easy, huh? Meanwhile, uh,
by 8 00:41:59
I'm thinking this guy probably thinks I'm a swinger because he
by 8 00:42:02
hasn't seen the back of it yet. And,
by 8 00:42:05
like, just. You could just tell this guy was
by 8 00:42:07
disheveled that I had swinging easy on the front of my T
by 8 00:42:10
shirt. So, um. But it is a good
by 8 00:42:13
one. I like the color scheme. I like the back.
by 8 00:42:16
Wait till people see the T shirt as one of the gifts for, uh, the
by 8 00:42:19
two.
by 8 00:42:19
>> Jonathan: Man, oh, man, that's a good one. Yeah, that's
by 8 00:42:22
a good one. But
by 8 00:42:25
I got nothing else to say, man. It's always good to yuck it up with you
by 8 00:42:28
sometimes. Just me and you doing our thing, you know,
by 8 00:42:31
unleashing hell on each other for a minute.
by 8 00:42:35
And, uh, you know, we had a little. You had a little
by 8 00:42:37
catastrophe before.
by 8 00:42:39
>> RB: You couldn't draft and everything.
by 8 00:42:40
>> Jonathan: So we do got to work on that with you a little bit. And
by 8 00:42:43
just. Let's just remember, it's not.
by 8 00:42:46
It's just not that big of a deal if the mic doesn't work
by 8 00:42:49
like, it's going to work at some point. All
by 8 00:42:52
right?
by 8 00:42:52
>> RB: But I appreciate that, Ryan.
by 8 00:42:55
>> Jonathan: Yeah.
