>> Cory Crowder: Hey, this is Cory Crowder, and you're listening to

Chasing Birdies.

>> RB: M.

>> Jonathan: You guys out there tuning in today. We appreciate it

very much. We're rolling here on Chasing

Birdies. It's Thursday. We're stoked

my man JP Is joining me bright and strong today.

My man.

>> RB: My man. What is going on?

>> Jonathan: Shoot, dude, you know what's going on.

We had a lot of good shit happening this past weekend, man, in the

whole world of golf, which we'll get into.

But, uh, tell me what's going on with you, man. You got the Red Vanley

dialed in for the fall or what?

>> RB: Yeah, that's what I was going to tell you is. This episode is brought to you by

Red Vanley. Uh, make sure you go to redvanly.com, check

them out, get your fall swag ready.

It's starting to look cooler around here.

>> Jonathan: I gotta tell you, though, man, it's kind of funny. I got the,

um, the drop ship package by.

By a gentleman that you and I both know. I'm not gonna say names.

Appreciate it. Appreciate throwing some, some swag

our way. Uh, and the shorts

are kind of, you know, they were there.

They're good. They're good.

>> RB: Really good, actually. I wore the pants the other day, and they were

dynamite.

>> Jonathan: Did you? That's funny. You wore pants

in the summer.

>> RB: Um, because I gotta work.

>> Jonathan: Did you go to work?

>> RB: I was on the sales call.

>> Jonathan: Okay. Sales call.

>> RB: But I do, I do. Um, I,

I haven't told you yet, but our boy Gentry,

you know, I, uh. The shoes that you got,

I was a little jealous of. And I,

I, I think he was even standing kind of close

when I said, I got all whites.

Well, but they're not yours. What just

showed up. But they're pretty solid.

>> Jonathan: Oh, no. So, dude, let's see. You.

Let me see.

>> RB: I'm gonna show you that

those are sick. All right.

>> Jonathan: All right.

Oh, uh, those are dirty with some reds on

them. Yeah, those are dope. So

cool. Too bad, Too bad. Nobody can see that

them right now but me. You do that,

though. I felt bad for you. I know. You were really kind of deflated there after

you got your free pair of sick Jordans and then you saw my

sick pair of Jord. Um,

well, uh, you kind of felt. I feel you. I feel you.

>> RB: I mean, the, the ones you have, though, they are.

It's like, like you said, it's a paperweight. You'll never

use them. Unless.

That would be a great Augusta national shoe.

>> Jonathan: I probably will wear them, but it's just Got to be the

right conditions. I mean, you know, no mud.

>> RB: Right.

>> Jonathan: But honestly, dude, I don't know if I will. Because the fact that they say

prototype, I don't know.

>> RB: Promo sample.

>> Jonathan: Promo sample. Um,

so whether or not they ever make it to market or not,

who knows?

But, uh, dude, I gotta clear the air a little bit with you

here. Um, uh, I heard a

rumor, and,

uh, I

reckon it's probably true, but I just needed to hear

from you first. But, um. And obviously you're

being. Being my best friend and

half brother here and there, depending upon a day.

Um, I'm kind of, uh, immune to this

side of you. But is there a 40th

birthday party that you're starting to plan already for yourself

going on right now? Is that happening

potentially?

>> RB: You know, dude, I like to plan, and I like to get things on

people's schedules. And, uh,

that way, it's planned far enough advance. So far, we have two

things planned next year. My 40th birthday and the Chasing

Birdies 2 Man, July 6th. 26th. 28th, by the

way. Um, but, yes, that is a

fact. But like I said, dude, you got a million things

going on in your life. The other's got a million things going in their lives.

I like to just have it in concrete and ready to

go.

>> Jonathan: Listen, dude, I. And I again, appreciate that. I

just, you know, May. I know May will be here before you know it, but

again, May is still, you know, nine months away. Like,

you could have a kid right now, and you already got the bedroom done and.

And the kid's name picked out. Um,

so I just heard that. I heard some rumblings from some friends of ours.

Mutual friends, you know, about your

potential 40th. Sounds like it's gonna be a pretty

epic. If you pull it off, which you will. You

will. You know, the people in place. You will.

So that's awesome, dude.

>> RB: So, hey, that's great. I guess I'll see you there.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, you will. You will.

>> RB: Uh, but let's get to, uh, what we need to talk about.

>> Jonathan: All right?

>> RB: The PGA Tour FedEx cup

over. New PGA Tour season starts.

Tommy Fleetwood, five days before

he took the win, he said it'd be pretty funny

to win this one. And guess what he

did. He won it. I didn't

even tell you this, but about a month

and a half ago, old Tommy

Fleetwood started working with the

previous guest of ours. You want

to guess?

>> Jonathan: Well, Rotella.

>> RB: Bob Rotella. So

I, um, think, you know, that maybe helped him get over that hump a little

bit. Focus a Little more in those last couple holes. But

nonetheless, I loved watching to see him

win. He deserves it. He. I'm

so happy for that guy. Uh, and to win the FedEx cup did. What

a time to win.

>> Jonathan: I know, uh, what a time to win. I,

I actually felt a little emotional watching him

celebrate his victory because I was so. I

kind of, I was very empathetic. I felt every

emotion that he was feeling because I know that he has come so

close. It's almost hard to believe he's.

I just asked you this a couple of months ago on the show. I said,

uh, that Fleetwood. What does he want? He's won.

No, he's never won. Crazy.

Um, so I felt, I felt it for

him, dude. And I tell you what, man. I. Going

into Sunday with him having that lead and

I, and I read some things on the Internet with people making comments

about, you know, at what hole is his putter gonna fall

apart? You know, this, that and the other.

And I just really felt like

if there's gonna be a time for him to get it done, this is it.

This Sunday is it. You know, you, you had

Scheffler just far enough back that to where he was lurking.

Make a move.

>> RB: Well, he got working.

>> Jonathan: He got it to 2 and then hit in the water.

Um, I was so excited for him.

And did you see, that's why golf's

so great, is all

of the fellow competitors.

>> RB: Dude, we're so happy for him.

>> Jonathan: They're just elated.

>> RB: Justin Rose was literally filming him from his

cell phone, his, his tapping.

Everybody's so happy.

So let me ask you this question. Now that we're talking about golf

and you know, and the FedEx cup, and I think

it might have already happened or, uh, or

it's happening soon. If

you're Keegan Bradley, are you

taking yourself?

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

>> RB: Agreed. You're one of the best players in golf right

now. Um, it'd be different if it was kind of like you

were like 14, 15, right? Like you were kind of that,

that line that was to, to be picked or not

picked. But dude, he's a clear cut pick.

>> Jonathan: Ah, clear cut pick. He's playing his best golf at this point,

his life. Obviously he has the

tournament track record to prove it. Back it up. The fact

that he's the captain they were talking about. Arne Palmer was the last

captain player to do it back in 60s.

Um, I don't think that there's any reason why

he should not pick himself or shouldn't play.

And that's not even an egotistical approach,

you know, like doing something selfishly because you're in

the power of the, uh, you hold the power in that position.

I just think comparing everything. He

should be playing on the Ryder cup team. No doubt about it.

>> RB: Yes.

>> Jonathan: And if he's not, I'll be shocked.

>> RB: It's not an easy decision on his end. It's

not. Because if he picks himself

and they lose, you're full. If you

pick yourself and you win, you're a genius.

So it's, it's decision, um, hey, at

least he has to make that decision. That's the other thing, right? He

could have. Now he has to make a decision.

So.

>> Jonathan: But I will say that even if he doesn't pick

himself and they lose, then you're going to still

have. You could be able to come up with all kind of scenarios to

point blame. I mean, the US should not lose this Ryder cup

this year, uh, on American soil. They should not.

Especially when a guy like McRoy is faltering week

after week. Kind of the nucleus within the, that

European team. You know, naturally they're, they're, they

got a pretty good collectively record

individually. I mean, Justin Rose has played in how many

Ryder Cups? I mean, a lot.

But I think the US should, no matter what,

be able to, to claim victory. That's

just my two cents for whatever it's worth as a

amateur podcaster that talks about golf.

>> RB: What about Patrick Cantley? Dude, I can't take it. I can't take

him on the golf course. The waggles, this, that

from the time that he grabbed the golf club.

I forget. I saw it online. Somebody started recording, like,

timing him. It was like 59 seconds from the time

he had the driver fully out of his golf bag.

Like. But you've hit the same shot the last three days. Why are we

thinking about this? It's a Street par 4.

>> Jonathan: When they, yeah, when they went to. When they were on number

eight, that short par four, and they both hit driver and

then the camera angle, like on the front of them

can't lay. Looked like he, it looked like one

of us swinging up there, like both of them

blew it. Right. And it looked like two amateur

golfers just trying to protect themselves from not going in the water.

And they both let up on a swing and just smashed

it. Right. Uh, I, I don't know, man. He, you

know, it's, he's kind of hard to watch.

Um, I just think because he's kind of, just doesn't have any

swag about him, that's all. I mean, He's a. Look, he's

a. He's a player, you know? I can't take that away

from him. But just. There's just nothing to him, you know?

He's just kind of. Kind of vanilla to me.

Well, which I. I don't mind vanilla ice cream with some,

like, sprinkles or Oreos, but.

>> RB: But, um, I'll tell you who's not vanilla

is our guest today.

>> Jonathan: Our guest today is not. Not vanilla at

all.

>> RB: Uh. Uh, you know, I met our guests,

um, about a year ago, actually, funny enough, at

Sage Valley, um, with a couple of the other

guys. And, uh, today we

have Corey Crowder

on the pod. And, um, you know, he

kind of was. He's close friends with one of

the boys at Florida Georgia Line. It was funny, the story about

him introducing him to this guy. They're forming

Florida Georgia Line Band. And that's

all she wrote. Right? And, uh, we all know where that

went. That. That was incredible run for that

duo. Um, but the guy loves golf. He

lives down. Down there in Reynolds, uh,

plantation member at Kuskawilla.

I think I might be saying it wrong, but,

um, yeah, that's where he's a member at.

>> Jonathan: Grammy nominee. Won five

awards that basically no one can

win in the music biz. Uh,

he did it. He had the plaques to back it up.

I gotta say, though, man, we do our guests, or not our guests,

but our listeners a disservice often, because

when we stop recording and we have our

talk with our guests and we're just, like,

recapping and shooting a shit for a minute,

it's such good conversation,

and it's never recorded. And

this episode with Corey Crowder,

when it ended, we talked for about another 10

minutes. And it was

gold. It was gold. And it's

nowhere to be found anywhere

in the ether. But it was great. But it was great

talk. But enough of us talking,

man. I'm ready to roll us in the Corey

Crowder here on Chasing

Birdies.

You guys enjoy it,

man, it's always good to have a guest on the

show that not only did we not talk

too much in the past or had on a show in the past,

but bringing the roots back up from

Nashville. And Grammy nominee

Corey Crowder is here today on Chase

and Birdies. He's done it all. We'll get into that whole

thing. But, brother, man, it's finally so good to

have you on Chasing Birdies. I know it's been. You know, it's.

We've been trying. Let's put it to you that way.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah. Yeah. It's good to be here. Thanks for having me.

>> Jonathan: And I understand, uh, that,

uh, the meeting of the minds between you and Pep happened on a golf

course down in Sage Valley. What a

coincidence.

>> RB: Sage Valley brings everybody together.

So, um, it's. Yeah,

that's where it all happened. And it all started. Yeah.

Me, Neil Walker,

Cole, Taylor, Tyler, Reeve,

Corey. I mean, I think all of us had to

carry Cole, uh, Taylor back to the townhouse

at one night. So that was good.

>> Jonathan: Does he get bent or what?

>> Cory Crowder: I don't know. I mean, he just never stops drinking beers. I mean, it's

impressive.

>> Jonathan: It really is.

>> RB: He's so small.

>> Jonathan: That's it, right?

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, he's got a way better tolerance than I do.

>> Jonathan: I just don't understand that because,

I don't know, some people just with their tolerance,

it's actually impressive. Like you want to get. You want to tip your hat

to them.

>> Cory Crowder: It takes practice. Ryan.

>> Jonathan: Absolutely does, man.

>> RB: Best part with him, though, is you never know when it's actually from

alcohol or he's just taking a nap.

>> Cory Crowder: I'm jealous of that. I couldn't take a nap if I tried.

>> Jonathan: Well, you got a little one too, right?

>> Cory Crowder: I've got a 12 year old boy and a 9 year old girl,

so they're not really little anymore, but.

>> Jonathan: But that 12.

>> RB: His 12 year old son, uh, is wearing a size 13

shoe bud. That's as big as you are.

>> Jonathan: Uh, that's. That is insane. Is that what you guys were talking

about? He's wearing a 13 at 12.

>> Cory Crowder: He's six foot tall and wears a 13. So he's raiding

my shoe closet. Yeah.

>> Jonathan: He's 12.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah. Isn't that wild? Well, see, my

wife. My wife is six foot tall. I'm

six. Six. My dad's a huge

guy. Laney's dad's a huge guy. So, like,

you know, it's just genetics, man. He's. But he's

going to fly by me. I mean, he'll be looking down on me for sure.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, there's no doubt about it.

>> RB: Not that you're not treating your own son right, but you might want to think about

that in the future of him putting you

in a garbage can or something else.

>> Cory Crowder: So, uh, I told him it's gonna be a long time before

he can whoop his old man. I got the dad strength going

for me.

>> Jonathan: Yeah. Yeah.

Um, so, man, what's been going on with you

in your world? You know, I know you. You stay wrapped.

Wrapped in the music biz tuned in.

Um, not playing. Trying to play on words there, but

really, you know, you have a pretty successful

career in the business. Um,

and so, I mean, you still. What's your day to

day? Like, I guess right now in 20, 25, and

we'll get back to the start of it all, because I know Jonathan and I

talked a little bit about you. You early on days,

but, uh, like, right now. Corey Crowder, what is he working

on, man?

>> Cory Crowder: So I, you know, about three years ago, I moved full

time to Lake Oconee in Georgia.

>> Jonathan: Okay.

>> Cory Crowder: So I did that. I mean, man, in Nashville,

I was on the grind. Like, uh, so I'm a producer and a writer. So

in Nashville, it was, like, constant. I mean, I opened

the studio every day, and I shut it down every day. I was first, First.

First to arrive, last to leave. Um, and

I just. My kids were getting older, and I just

decided, you know, man, I need a.

I need to be able to, like, distance myself from this and

not be on the grind every day of the week,

24, you know, 24 hours a day. So, yeah, moving down here

has been great. So we're from here originally, so, you know, getting back

to, like, my kids are getting to grow up how I grew up

small town, um,

obviously obsessed with golf. And I'm, you know,

we're in a heavy golf area.

So I would say, you know, I spend a week a month in

Nashville, and I pack sessions with, like, artists,

writing sessions that, when I'm there. So I'm there next week for the whole

week. Uh, and then when I'm here, I do this.

I zoom with people. I zoomed, uh,

actually two days ago with Cole Taylor and Thomas Archer.

>> Jonathan: Oh, nice.

>> RB: Speaking of, man.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, dude, I love those guys. And so anybody that.

Anybody I already have kind of a good relationship with,

um, I'll zoom with them, and we'll either start songs

or. Or finish them out and send them to artists. But,

yeah, so my kind of day to day here looks

like, you know, I play golf three days a week,

uh, at least.

>> RB: That's awesome.

>> Cory Crowder: And then I, uh. And then I, you know, I'm on the

grind when I'm in Nashville, and I get to, like, just, like,

go full throttle while I'm there and then come back here and kind of take a

breath and work at my own pace. I like

it, man.

>> RB: It's, uh, a.

>> Cory Crowder: It's a nice break from the constant, you know?

>> Jonathan: Well, I mean, you're living life. You're doing

everything that you love. You know, you're in the place you want to

be at. You're still doing what you are passionate

about. You got the kids going on right now, and you love

golf. You. And that's what so many people

through life need to understand that, like,

we're. We're not going to end up at one

destination. Like, everyone's always trying to get to this. This is

this. When I, When I get to this point, then I'll get that, blah, blah, blah.

It's like you got to take what you have and kind

of put the tunnel vision on and take that day by day and

enjoy that. You know what I'm saying?

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, man, you spot on. Yeah. You know,

it's easy to get, uh, caught up in that. You know, my. My goal

was always, you know, oh, man, if I could just have one number one song.

>> Jonathan: Exactly.

>> Cory Crowder: Say I would feel different. And then you get the number one song and

you're like, well, I didn't feel any different. Uh,

I want five number one songs and then.

>> Jonathan: Right.

>> Cory Crowder: I want a Triple Play Award. And then, you know, at every,

every junction, you just are like, man, this is

still, still the same, you know, so, yeah, uh, finding

a ways to like, actually live life and

focus, uh, on what's important while still, you know, staying

after it's been.

>> RB: For those of that are listening, can you

explain the Triple Play Award? Uh, a lot of

people might not know what that is.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah. So, dude, when I first moved to town, I had

a. I had an artist record deal.

And one of the first things they did was they brought

me to this thing called the Triple Play Awards, which means you had

three number one songs in a calendar year,

which is like, virtually impossible for a

songwriter. A lot easier for. Yeah, like,

a lot easier for an artist, you know, especially if you're a big artist,

maybe. Um, but like, for a

songwriter, it's just so out of your control. I mean.

>> RB: Right.

>> Cory Crowder: Has really nothing to do with your work ethic or your

songs or anything. It's just like luck,

whatever you want to call it. Right. I mean, you just happen to

land three radio singles that just so happened to go number one

in the same year. Which is for me, it was

always been like a sign of, like, that was always bigger

to me than like a Grammy or a acm.

Like, you know, those are cool. But like,

that was the one that was like, man, if I'm ever there.

So, like, the first time I saw that Luke Brown was on

stage and, uh, man, it

seemed like a million miles away from me, you know, because I was like, just getting

to Town. I'm like this joker and all these guys that

he brings on stage, they had three number one songs in a year.

That's. That's wild. Um,

and so, yeah, the year I got it, I had five in the

year.

>> RB: What.

>> Cory Crowder: Which was wild. Almost had a

double triple play.

>> Jonathan: Holy hell.

>> Cory Crowder: Um, but it was.

>> RB: So what were the five songs that. That you wrote that

year?

>> Cory Crowder: So let's see. See if I can remember them. Long

live Florida Georgia Line. Yeah, I love my

country. Florida Georgia Line. Famous friends. Chris

Young came around, drinking beer, talking.

God. Amen.

>> RB: Chase.

>> Cory Crowder: Uh, Rice. Florida Georgia Line. And then,

um, there was one other, uh,

missing. Let me look at it.

>> RB: Just look at your wall. It's fine. It'll be hanging up.

>> Cory Crowder: I remember the 5th, but it was like a. Ah, it

was a close one, man. It was, um, a real

close call. So.

>> RB: That's insane.

>> Cory Crowder: I mean, yeah, dude. I. That was

like. That's, like, my most proud moment. Like, anybody that comes here to this room,

I'm always like. Like, my buddies that don't know anything about

music, I'm like, this little tiny award

right here is, like. This is, like, the one.

>> RB: This is everything.

>> Cory Crowder: This is the one that I'm, like, proud of.

>> Jonathan: That is.

>> RB: Well, speaking of words, Bash, you should tell them your Tyler

Reeve story. Um. What? He threw

you?

>> Jonathan: Oh, man. You know, we were at Old Hickory. This

is back in. This is, like, Covid. This is, like,

2020. And, uh,

I'm in Nashville, and I set up some golf with Tyler

over at, uh, Old Hickory. And

we had already interviewed him on chasing birdies, like, right when

we started. Um, but I had never

met him, so, you know, I was like, hey, man, I'm coming

down to Nashville, and let's play some G.

Whatever. So we did. Well, we played

golf, and it ended up turning into a hangout session at Old

Hickory, naturally, which ended up turning into

pool. Uh, or maybe it was darts, either

way. But anyways, that turned into betting with tequila

shots.

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, boy.

>> Jonathan: And it got to the point where I

completely quit drinking. It was my buddy and him that were going

back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, and just doing

these shots, one after another after another after another.

Finally, I said, hey, man, I'm like. And mind you, again, this,

uh. I'm like, I'm taking your keys because you are not

driving home. Your wife's calling you. She wants to know where her grilled

chicken salad is. That was three hours ago.

So I'm gonna take your keys, and what we're

gonna do is I'm gonna drive your ass home when you're ready to go. Because

I was sober at this point. So,

uh, at any rate, we left there and

I drove his truck and he directs me to his house and

he's dropping him off and he's like, come on in,

guys. So we go in and

naturally, uh, his wife was pissed, Ashley was not happy.

And, um, Tyler, still yucking it up,

you know, and pulls out the, uh,

the necklace that he got for, in case you didn't

know. And he like just launches it

at me. Like, I'm like.

And he. And he puts it on my neck and

I felt like I'm in like WWF versus

wcw. That's old school right there, by the way. Wwf?

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, yeah.

>> Jonathan: And I got the, uh, you know, the BMI thing on or whatever it

was, boys for, uh, you know, number one hit,

in case you didn't know.

>> RB: And throw his Grammy at you, though.

>> Jonathan: He. Well, I don't know if it was a Grammy. I don't remember

specifically what it was, but no, he, he was throwing like these

awards. Throwing awards at you, just like tossing

them. Check this one out. Toss. And I'm like. And we're

all like. But yeah, that was,

that was pretty funny. And to this day he's like,

that was one of the. That, that was the

drunkest time I've ever been. Like, that was. That was it.

>> Cory Crowder: That's saying something too.

>> Jonathan: That is saying something.

>> RB: Five in a year.

Talking about mailbox money boys.

>> Jonathan: Justin Matthias, huh?

>> RB: Yeah.

>> Jonathan: Ah, giving you some lessons. There you go. Yeah,

thank the number ones.

But that's interesting, man, because. And I don't know

at what liberty we can discuss it because we don't need to discuss

it, but the reality is, is that that Florida Georgia Line

run was some of the best popping

music hitting the charts that we have seen.

I mean, there's no. Nobody can argue that. I

don't care. Um, when those two were together,

and it's unfortunate, but shit happens, man. That's life. That's

just the way it goes. But, um, you kind of were

at the epicenter of that in some respect, if I understand

correctly, with the start of fgl.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, I wasn't, I wasn't around for the start. But you know, when they,

they, um, they opened a company

called Tree Vibes Music, and it was like a

publishing company. And so they had this

badass building, uh, over in 21st

Avenue, which is kind of like in between Belmont and

Vanderbilt. And it was this super

modern. They had bought this old school house and like, completely

gutted it and made this killer spot.

I mean, there'll never be anything that tops

this, you know, five or six year period. Right? It was

just. We were so. I had the. The big

studio there with the guys that I.

I lived in. That's the one I referred to opening and

closing every day. Um,

it was so. It was so awesome, man. And like, those guys were

in, you know, they were in every day whether we were writing

or not. I mean, it was like, you know,

Hardy, Jordan Schmidt, uh, Ernest,

me, um, Kanan Smith,

the boys Redfer. And I mean, we were chilling on

the porch every morning. That's crazy. You know, drinking beers in the

afternoon. It was like we were, you know, playing each other the song

we wrote that day. It was just a magical

time that, like, Covid, honestly, kind of

just squashed that vibe. Like there's not really,

to my knowledge, not really another publishing company that's ever

really felt like that. And it,

uh, it was a bummer for that to get squashed, but it was. I'm glad

we got to have it, but, man, those guys had this bus and

they were the first ones to do it. We had a. So the tree vibes bus

was just for the writers. And we had a studio on

the front and a studio in the back, and so we'd bring

like six of us out for the whole Florida Georgia

Line tour. So it was like Wallen, Dan and

Shea. Um, I mean, just,

you know, those. Those tours were epic,

obviously. And we were riding with some

artist every single day in the front or back lounge. And then,

you know, you'd play the song by the end of the day, like at the end of the night

after the show would come in there and the demo would be done and we just

all drink some beers and like, listen to the songs. And it was.

Dude, it was so badass. Like, magical

time period.

>> RB: I mean, that. So many names you drop

there. I mean, you think about that, that's what, six, seven years ago

this was happening, right?

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah.

>> RB: I mean, you look at the names, some of the names that you mentioned there and

where they're at now in their career,

um, it's crazy. You know, people think that it's an

overnight success. And, you know, you talk to,

I think Ray Fulcher and even Tyler and Cole

Taylor, they called Nashville a ten year.

What is it? A ten year town.

>> Cory Crowder: Ten year town. Yeah.

>> RB: And, uh, you look at a lot of those names, and it took about

six, seven years for them to get where they're at.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, no It's. It's true. Yeah. Same happened to

me. You know, I moved. I moved to town with a record deal

and kind of, like, fell out of love with performing

and, um, fell in love with, like, the studio and

writing songs and. And so, yeah, it took me,

you know, seven, eight years to get something truly rolling.

You know, if you look from the beginning of it, um,

from when I first moved it, you know, Cole Taylor is actually

the fastest I've ever heard of. Like, he had

Sipping on Fire within, like, a couple years.

>> RB: Yeah.

>> Cory Crowder: Um, just a crazy. You know, I just never

happens.

>> RB: So let me ask you. So whenever, you know, you were tied

in with Florida Georgia Line from basically the beginning,

um, and you were on that rocket ship, which had to be.

You had to feel like you're invincible, right? Like, I

mean, at some point.

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, yeah.

>> RB: When Cole wrote Sipping on Fire, does Florida

Georgia Line take that and, like, let you

listen to it and you think this is what we should be doing type

thing? Or is it just purely they're working hands on hands with

Cole?

>> Cory Crowder: Well, I wasn't around for that, for that song. But,

um, so they were over at Big Loud at this time, and they

had, uh. Cole had started that. I

can't remember who he started that with. And then Rodney Claussen

was over at Big Loud, and so I think they

brought it to Rodney Clawson and he kind of helped him

tweak it out. And then, yeah, he brought it over to Joey,

Moy and Seth. Um, so

I think Cole, you know, I don't think Cole had really any direct

interaction with the boys, but that was probably more Rodney.

Um. But yeah, I mean, dude, what a.

I mean, I remember when that happened, I was so jealous just because I'm

like, damn, I'm over here grinding. Cole moves town.

He's just, boom, he has a hit. I mean, obviously

Cole's one of my homies, so I was, like, mega excited for

him. But, uh, I mean, it just seems so

impossible, you know, Sometimes you're like, dude, it doesn't.

It doesn't matter how good of a song I write today. It's like, never gonna

happen.

>> RB: You know, I think that the whole. Your whole

song rights are so interesting because, like, even if I'm

smoking a cigar, which you witnessed,

I smoke a lot of them. Um, I sit

there and I start putting a few words in my head. Like, I'll get to, like,

word seven. I'm like, I don't know where to

go from here. If I'm just, like, doing it in my head.

And you guys write a whole damn song in two hours. And it's just

like. And I guess there's four people that are helping or three people

that are filling in gaps, whatever. But still, it is such a

talent that I don't think people realize. I think by

now a lot of our listeners know kind of

what goes into the country music scene. But it is still.

It's incredible what goes into a song.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, I mean, you know, I relate it to

golf a lot because it's like you

can't, you can't just like pick up a golf club like once

or twice a year and, and do anything

really. Right. So.

>> Jonathan: Right. 100.

>> Cory Crowder: It's like, you know, I'm written thousands of songs at this point.

So you kind of know how

to get there from every spot. You know,

it's like once you have an idea and you know, like where you're landing the

plane, as we say, it's

just. You kind of know how to get there and it's just really all about

trying to do it a little different and say it just one,

one tick different. But we're really all talking about the

same shit. Just, you know, trying to say, uh, it

just a slightly different, you know.

>> RB: Right.

>> Jonathan: No, I think the songwriting thing

is incredible. It's. It's such a cool thing. I've

been writing the same song now for 12 years. I got the same melody,

the same chord progression, and I just can't put the

right lyrics on top of it. But I do enjoy

that aspect. For me, as a. As, you know, just a

guy that plays the guitar, plays piano. I've done it

virtually my whole life and I really appreciate music.

Uh, I can't sing, but that's where you come in, Corey.

If I want to cut an ep, I'm going to come to your studio and we're

going to use all kind of, you know, technology

now to really get my voice auto tune, for example,

um, take out the nasally sound a little bit and kind of

make that, uh, make that roll a little bit.

And that was gonna be one of my questions to you now

with, with the producing aspect of it, you

know, with the way technology has advanced so much.

I mean, not just from the 80s and 90s, but I'm

talking in the last 15 years. Yeah.

>> Cory Crowder: Ah.

>> Jonathan: Um. Do you gotta keep on your game?

Like, do you gotta go. And I don't want to say take

continuing education, but is it more just about

experimenting with stuff and seeing, you know, I mean,

how does that work now with the way tech is advancing

things, man.

>> Cory Crowder: I mean this is, this is dating me a little bit. But

like I had Auto Tune 1

and I had. And I'm pretty sure, I

mean we're on at least 12 now.

Um, so I mean I had the first iteration of

Auto Tune, the first iteration of Melodyne, which is another

tuning and editing software. And like,

yeah, dude, I've always been, I've always

been good with computers so it's always kind of come a little natural

to me. Um, but yeah, I,

I stay up on it, I'm geeky about it. So me and I

got, you know, my producer buddies and anytime we find some

new tool that's, that's really helping

and that we think is like legit, we, we kind of toss it around.

Yesterday I was uh, talking about

this new AI software with some guys

just for, just for quick demoing or like if you

want to pitch a song to a guy like

you know, like Morgan for, for example, if you wrote a

song from Morgan, like, well my, my voice is really different than Morgan's,

you know, so like man, how do I sing

this and him hear it and think

I can hear myself doing that. Right? So it's really

helpful to have like AI tools where I can,

I can uh, take my voice and, and turn it

into a different sounding voice that

sounds a little bit more similar to what he would do. So maybe he's

able to like hear it and actually listen

to the song and not be thinking, oh, I'm not, I'm not going to sound like

that, you know. So I mean I'm constantly evolving,

uh, and trying to stay up on it. The technology

changes literally by the month. I mean these,

it's wild. Technology in the last five years

alone has been psycho. How much has changed?

>> Jonathan: Oh, it's, it's, it's with everything though.

>> RB: I mean every, the AI thing I think is really scary.

I think it's obvious, it's good, but it's also really

scary what these AI things can

be done. Um, even with photographs,

um, and music and all that,

it's um, it's cool. But again,

it's concerning a little bit.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, it's a lot of bit concerning. I mean as long as we get

legislation around, it would be good. Um, the

problem is we're always so behind. We're

still trying to catch up to streaming royalties

for writers. So it's like. And how long has

streaming been around? We're still,

we're so behind and it's just part of it.

Um, so just trying to stay

Use it as a tool and not

hate it and resent it. It's really tough. Um,

like, if you were to see my studio right now, like when I.

My. My old studio maybe like five or six years ago, had like

tons of rack gear everywhere. And like,

I don't have any of that. I sold it all because there's really no

need for it. It's all. It's all in this computer now. You know, it's

like crazy. And there's no hiss, there's no,

you know, dirty pots where you turn it and it. It

won't work. And it's just always perfect.

And it sounds exactly like the

real piece of gear, you know?

>> Jonathan: So, uh, are you using. What. Do you use Pro Tools or what? What. What

is it?

>> Cory Crowder: I'm in Logic, so.

>> Jonathan: Logic.

>> Cory Crowder: I made records, like the first few Chris Young records I did,

I did in Pro Tools. And it just like, never

felt really comfortable.

Um, almost like to liken it to

golf, it was like playing like a standard size

set of clubs. Whereas, like now I'm in like 2 inch longer

with big grips. And it's like.

>> Jonathan: It's a great analogy.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah. So, like, you know, it's like you can do it, but you're just

constantly uncomfortable. And

so, like, Logic. Once I figured out that I could make

records in Logic because it's just more intuitive for my

brain, uh, I just made the

switch and records tend to turn

out more like I. Like, I want them to that way,

I think.

>> RB: Uh, yeah, it's crazy.

>> Jonathan: What were you gonna say?

>> RB: Pep? Sorry, I was going. I was going to ask about the.

The where country music is right now. I

feel like it is on top of the world.

Um, yeah, I feel like all walks of life are listening

to country music. Um, you know,

and actually, I would probably say it all kind of started

with Luke Bryan, Florida Georgia Line. Those guys kind of have

propelled it. And now your

Luke Combs and Morgan Wallins have kind of like

taken and taken it. Um, because,

dude, there's. In Pittsburgh, there's four or five

country music stations just in Pittsburgh.

>> Cory Crowder: That's wild.

>> RB: And, um, I feel like country music

is in a incredible spot right now.

And. And what are you seeing from your

side of it? Um, do you feel like when

you're on the inside, are you feeling that?

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, there's all these, like, little sub genres within

country now. You know, country is like kind of a

pretty wide term, whereas, like, you know,

in the 90s, it all kind of sounded similar. And then

like, I. I feel like Garth

Brooks if you just think about, like,

the music before Garth Brooks and then, like, after Garth

Brooks, like, it really kind of shifted. Uh,

it like Garth kind of brought it to, like, that

stadium, uh, performer kind of, you know,

wearing the headset, you know? Um, I just feel

like it really changed. I mean, I remember. Do you remember

Tim McGraw? I think it was Tim McGraw and Nelly

did a song together.

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

>> Cory Crowder: Um, and that, like, blew my mind. And then.

Yeah. All in my head, I think, as well.

>> Jonathan: Over and over again.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I think

that was, like, the beginning of the shift, you know, and then. But I

do. I think you're spot on. Like, the bro country

movement of, like, Luke Bryan and FGL

opened it up to, like, guys that were into hip hop, that were like, dude,

this actually. I can actually feel this.

>> Jonathan: The crazy thing is. Now. Is

that what you just said? Like, you're seeing,

like, marshmallow, you know, the DJ EDM

rolling in with some of these boys doing some

cuts. You know, you mentioned the rappers and

then take it a step further. Look at Shibuzi himself.

Mean, my man's got the hip hop flow going on the country, and he's blown

up. Yeah. Uh, you know what I mean?

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah.

>> Jonathan: So it's kind of transcended into all these different avenues.

Like, it's almost like the country.

Like, I hate to say it, and I'm probably not right

in saying this, but it's almost like if you listen to the highway on

Sirius, that's not country. That's like

a different genre of country. Like, it's country,

but it's not, like, turning on, you know,

Willie's Roadhouse or some shit like that.

You know what I mean?

>> Cory Crowder: No, I do. Uh, I think you're right. Um,

the cool part for me, like, I know a lot of country purists hate

it, but I think it's cool, man, because it, like,

country is like the last spot where, like, lyric really

matters, you know? Um,

where, like, a lot of people that have never listened to country that start

listening to it, they're like, man, I just like the stories and, like,

the. The words. Um, there's not used to

that in other genres. And so it's like the last kind

of space for that. So that's kind of the thread that

I feel like, connects all of them is that, like, lyric kind of matters

still, you know? That's true, but there's all these sub

genres. So, like, you got Zach Topp, who's, like, super

traditional. You got Zach Bryan, who's super, like, folky

um, and yeah, you got Shaboozy and, and

uh, and you know, Wallen that are doing, you

know, leaning kind of hip hop at times. And like, I just think it's

cool because it's, it's given country a place

where like, anybody can like it, you know?

Yeah, I think that's, I think it's a good thing. I

see it as a good thing.

>> RB: Some of the boys, I, I never even heard of Don Williams before.

Hanging out with some of those boys, uh, you know, Tyler and

all them, and they got me on this Don Williams kick

the guy. It's, it's like your grandfather's talking to you.

I mean, Tulsa time and I hope

today's gonna be good and all this other stuff.

Literally, I'll sit on my patio and smoke a cigar while I'm trying to

write a five word song,

um, and listen to Don Williams and

you think like, this was country music back in the day.

Yeah, it's so cool.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, man. I, you know, I listened to those songs

growing up and my, my parents were, were kind of

into southern rock and old country and

it didn't really mean anything to me at the time. But,

um, listening to those songs again as like a,

you know, a songwriter now, you realize

like how awesome it was and like how,

I mean, how great the songs were.

And so, yeah, I'm able to appreciate it at a whole

new level at this age than I did, you know, as a

kid.

>> RB: It's probably like that in golf for you too, right? Like, as a kid,

you're just, we were all little shitheads going out there smacking

balls around and not paying attention. And this sport's

stupid and this, that and the other. Now we're all

in, uh, on golf. And I feel like

golf and country music have a similar,

um, outcome during COVID

Um, you know, country music kind of skyrocketed during COVID

and golf clearly

went nuts during COVID because it was the one sport

people get out there. We all wore face masks. They all

put the little, um, pool

noodle in the hole. So I don't even understand the reasoning

behind that. Um, but I feel like there were

some similarities there.

Has golf always been kind of on your radar

or when you got to Nashville, was that like, all

right, this is my off day, I'm going to go peg it up a little

bit, man.

>> Cory Crowder: I started playing when I was a kid. One of my best

friends growing up, Blake, was, uh, he was always into

golf and really good. He brought me to my first

tournament. I went to the Bell South Classic in

Gwinnett over in Georgia, and watched Tiger

back in his heyday and just got the bug.

And I was terrible. I mean, I played in high school, but our high school

was so small that, like, if you try it out, you made it.

Um, and so I was. You know, I had a

complete baseball swing. Kind of. Kind of still do.

Uh, but it was, uh, you know, like you say. It

was just. I had no idea what I was doing. You

know, anytime I made good contact, it was all luck.

Um, and then, yeah, I couldn't really afford to play

golf for a long time. You know, chasing music down, you

know, you go through, you know, the brokest of

broke periods in your life, so I couldn't afford to play golf.

So, yeah, when I was in Nashville, it wasn't really on my

radar, to be honest. It was something,

uh, I loved, but that I just considered I had no time for.

Um, and then once I started,

we bought a place down here at the lake at the beginning of

COVID And, dude, down here, it was like

Covid didn't exist. You know, in Nashville, we were, like,

in masks and, like, taking tests every time we had

a cough. You come down here. Like, the restaurants were

slammed. There was no pool noodles in the holes

there. It was like.

>> RB: There was no Covid in Georgia.

>> Cory Crowder: No. At least not in this part of Georgia. And

so I just started spending a lot more time here. And

then I got the golf bug bad. I started

playing with one of my buds, uh, Sterling, and we just.

Dude, it. It just. I turned into an

obsession, so I. It became my life

goal. I was like, all right, I've already had success in music. Now

I want to be a scratch golfer. So I started.

>> RB: And how are we. How are we tracking on that right now,

man?

>> Jonathan: I was.

>> Cory Crowder: I got down to a four last year, and I'm back up

to high sixes this year. You know,

that's just what happens, right?

>> RB: Uh, my man Justin. My.

We got a mutual friend in Justin who I believe gives you lessons.

We talked about that when I saw you at Sage Valley.

Such a good kid.

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, man, did you see he almost won the tournament?

>> Jonathan: I. I saw he posted something. He

was like, what did he. Seven under.

>> Cory Crowder: Seven under. And he lost on the third hole of the playoff.

Yeah, I saw that, dude. Our whole club at Cusco Willow

was, like, rooting him on. Like, we were watching it. Me and. We had dinner over at

my buddy's house, and, uh, we were, like, watching it

the whole time. Like, I know he was Bummed to get that

close and not win. But, like, I was like, man, you're there now.

Like, you got the taste of it now, huh?

Yeah, but, yeah, he's a great teacher, and he'll, like, go out on the

course with me and my son and, like, he'll teach us. And

if I play with him, he'll always say, you know, you're coming over the

top or whatever.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, he's, he's, he's great. He's great

people, man. Yeah, I spent some good, good bit of time with

him. He was a Pete Dye Golf Club here in Bridgeport, West

Virginia. So I got to know him for a couple

summers, played in a couple events with him. But I, uh,

think he was at Trump before he came to Georgia.

>> Cory Crowder: I think so. Yeah.

>> Jonathan: Um, if I, if I'm correct, but,

but no, dude, chasing the golf bug, man. It's like, you know, we

do that all the time. And, and for

anybody, whether you're a scratch or you're trying to get

better, I mean, you're always going to sit there and think about

your golf swinger or what I need to do, like,

right now, my whole career of playing

golf, Corey, which has been a long time.

Okay. I'm 38 years old. I probably started

swinging when I was six or eight. I mean, really,

I was. I had strong grip and

I dropped the club under, and I always. My miss was always

these, like, gnarly snap hooks. Um, but

I would. When I would swing the right way, I'd hit a nice

little draw, you know? Nice draw. Well, for the last

three and a half years, I can't hit

a draw with my driver to save my

life. In fact, my driver now is

like, I. I have to set up left

because I know it's pilling, right? And there's times

where it's like, I hate that. And people are

like, oh, man, that's a nice little ball flight you got there. And I'm

like, well, is it really? Because I want to see it going right to left. I

can't get it right. Right to left, dude. It's

unbelievable.

>> Cory Crowder: You would hate Cusco. It's, uh, every hole set

up right to left, I've had to learn how to

hit a. I mean, my natural ball flight is a, uh, is a cut,

just like you and I. I've had to learn how to hit a little

draw just because otherwise I would be in the rough every

time. So it's like.

>> Jonathan: But it's so frustrating.

>> Cory Crowder: It is frustrating and always greener. Right?

I look at Guys that hit draws. And I'm like, oh, that's.

That's sweet. But, yeah, I'm the same. I'll hit my little

buttercut. And they're like, oh, man, I love that. I'm like, well, it doesn't

go anywhere.

>> Jonathan: You know, And I get reminded often because sometimes I

like to bitch a little bit about, you know, my golf game, and I get

reminded, hey, buddy, you still pay to play, so. What are you talking about? I'm

like, you're right. You're absolutely right. Like, um, I don't make money

playing golf, but. But we care as golfers, you

know? We care.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, we. We. We always joke from, like, you'd be playing for,

like, five bucks, and your freaking hands are shaking

over the putt, and you're like, this is

$5 putt.

>> Jonathan: And I'm.

>> Cory Crowder: It's. But to me, it's, like, so serious, you know?

>> RB: But you walk out on stage with 20,000 people and play a

song.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, that's easy.

>> RB: Yeah, it's. It's so funny playing with people

from, uh, other, you know, walks

of life. Your hockey players, your baseball players, your

football players. They get so nervous on the golf course,

and yet they can go play in front of

60,000 people and not bat an eye.

It's because it's so natural to you guys.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, you're right. There's something about golf, man. It's like. It's so

unforgiving, you know, it just expo. And it's just you against

you.

>> RB: Yeah, well, and that's the thing, too. Like, again, I go back to

this. Golf aligns with country music. You know, you look at.

Everyone wants to be a part of country music right now. You look at,

um. Man, what's her name? Ella Langley. Just came out with that

rap song with some guy,

um, Wallen.

Yeah, Wallen's with rapper.

You look at the golf thing. Everybody wants to play golf.

All walks of life. NFL players, Major league baseball

players, they all want to play golf. And, uh, it's really

cool to see.

>> Cory Crowder: It is, man. I was watching that creator, uh, classic

earlier today, like, catching up on it. And it was yesterday,

but I was just kind of catching up on it, and I'm thinking,

man, look at all these people out watching YouTube.

Golfers, right?

Um, how cool is that?

>> Jonathan: It is. And honestly, I would love to get

a crack at that one day, because I feel like 90 of

them, you.

>> RB: Know, we would say, good. Yeah.

>> Jonathan: I mean, Grant Horvath obviously is. Is a baller,

but.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah.

>> Jonathan: Um, some of these other Jam Oaks.

Like, I take it. I take him straight up.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, no, I'm with you. There's no requirement. Like

the. The Bob does sports guys are some of my

favorite. Like, the breezy guys are some of my favorite guys to watch

because they're. I mean, FP is pretty good,

but, like, other guys are like me, you know, they're

just not very good. And you're going like, I

love this. But that's what makes them fun to watch. Because it's.

>> RB: Right.

>> Cory Crowder: It's fun to watch guys that are, uh, you know, you feel like,

oh, I could beat them.

>> Jonathan: Yeah. And. And I love all the shit they

do. It's. It's actually been great for

golf, like you just said. I mean, that's why. Because

people tune in, pay attention to it. It's really good content.

I mean, I just would love a crack

to play Some of these boys. Me and Pep,

take them on.

>> Cory Crowder: Go get in it, dude.

>> RB: Come on.

>> Jonathan: Uh, I know. Where's the. Where's the applica. Hey, anybody out there

listening? Send me the application.

>> Cory Crowder: Hey, I'll be your caddy. I'm a great caddy.

>> Jonathan: That's right.

Hey, I saw something interesting today,

uh, and this is totally off topic. We'll get back.

But I was thinking about it. I want your guys opinions or not even

opinions, but you know how motorcycle bikers, man, they're all like

gangs and they're all boys. Like, when a biker passes

another biker, what's the thing they do? They put

their arm out.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah.

>> Jonathan: So I always thought, like, I wonder if garbage truck drivers do the same

thing. And finally,

finally today, I'm behind a

big dumpster and the other

dumpsters coming my way, and I'm like, here we go.

Are they gonna fucking dab up right now?

Nothing. Uh, the truck passed by, didn't even

look at the other garbage truck driver. Didn't even care.

But I just always wondered that about these

garbage guys because of, you know, competition.

>> RB: It's like the tight lip head nod that you do. You'll

catch your. You m. From the time we have this

conversation, you will catch yourself doing it a million times a

day where you just tight lip head nod to somebody on the golf

course and it's like.

>> Jonathan: Or anywhere.

>> RB: Anywhere.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah. If you see somebody with a rope hat on out

of public, that's me.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, you just give them the head nod.

>> Cory Crowder: My daughter drives her crazy. She's like, do you know that

person? I'm like, no, no. It's just like, well, why did

you. What'd you Just do. And I'm like, oh, we're just

acknowledging each other. We're saying, what's up?

He's like, why? You don't know them? I'm like, well, they play

golf. How do you know? I just know.

>> RB: Yeah, you know. You know,

But I'll tell you that, you know, the golf experience,

Ryan just got to experience, uh, Sage Valley. But,

um, man, what an experience.

Sage Valley is, uh, from

top to bottom, you know, I know that we. We. We

didn't play the big course together. We played the part three together.

And that's a ball. It stays open till 1am

Problem is, if the lights go off, you're screwed. But,

um, that whole setup from top

to bottom is 15 out of 10.

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, man, you're right. Yeah. From the second you get there,

like, I. I rolled in, and

I'm like, calling Cole. I'm like, where do I go? And he was like,

you'll see it. And I roll in, and, like,

I open my door, and they're like, hey, Mr. Crowder. And I was like,

how did you know who I was? Uh, and they.

They were like, we. We were expecting you. And then they. They take

my bags. And I was like, where are you taking that? He was

like, we're taking to your cabin. I'm like, how do you. How do you know where I'm

staying? We know where you're staying. I was like, well, uh, at

least.

>> RB: I knew you were going. They didn't know that Neil Walker and I were coming.

>> Cory Crowder: I know.

>> Jonathan: They. They not only know where you're staying, Corey, they

know what bedroom to put your in.

>> Cory Crowder: It's wild. I mean, I'm like, how did they know

what size I wore? Like, they had

my size shirt on the bed. I'm like, how did they know

that?

>> RB: We, uh, got none of that, by the way.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, you got. Y' all got the shaft a little bit, but that made a

Taylor.

>> RB: Well, you let Cole Tyler said, why did you have Cole

responsible for this? And then I looked at Cole

as he was slumping in his chair, and I'm like, you know what? He's

right. Why did I even put this in his hands?

>> Jonathan: Yeah, that's funny.

>> RB: Literally, nobody knew we were coming. I don't even think

the host knew we were coming.

>> Jonathan: Who hosted you guys?

>> Cory Crowder: We, um, were just talking about, um, Kip Plowman.

>> RB: Kip? Yeah. Kip Plowman.

>> Jonathan: Great.

>> RB: He was at the, um. He was at the charity event with Chris Collins. He

rode on the bus with us.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

>> RB: That's Kip and his son was a punter at Texas A.

All that stuff, dude. But literally nobody knew we were coming.

>> Cory Crowder: That's hilarious. I forgot about that.

Yeah. Tyler's like, why didn't you. Why didn't you just ask me?

>> RB: Like, we followed up with Cole four times.

We're good. We're good. Yes, you're good. Everybody's good.

Front gate. Didn't know we were coming. Didn't know where we were

staying. We basically slept on the couch because

all the beds are taken care taken. I mean, it was

just. But all in all, all that Aside,

it was 15 out of 10. I mean.

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, man. Getting to play with Fury was cool,

too.

>> RB: Yeah.

>> Cory Crowder: He, uh, came and played, like, three or four holes with

each group.

>> RB: Yeah.

>> Cory Crowder: Ah, I can't believe, you know, I couldn't believe, like,

A, how cool he was, B, how close he stands to the

ball. That blew my mind.

>> RB: Yeah.

>> Jonathan: Close.

>> Cory Crowder: He stands so close to it.

>> RB: So close it.

>> Cory Crowder: But I'm like, oh, maybe I stand too far away from the ball.

>> Jonathan: Yeah. See what I mean? You start doing like that.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah.

>> Jonathan: Does he still loop it pretty good?

>> RB: Oh, yeah.

>> Jonathan: That swing is so, like, oh, uh.

>> Cory Crowder: Dude, I watched him play because. So we get to this

part three, he's playing, and, you know, we watched

him play with, like, the two groups in front of us because it was kind of an

experience. So, like, he kind of built up there at the par threes. We were like, couple

groups. So you, like, watch him. He puts it right of the

hole, three feet. Um, the next group

puts it right of the hole, three feet, Plays with our

group, right of the hole, three feet. You know, you're like, dude,

like, I couldn't hit it in the same spot three times if you.

For a million dollars.

>> RB: So it's in. Dude, he's just slots it every

time, loops it. He's from, uh,

our area here in Pittsburgh, so we had a nice little connection

with. With Jim and Neil.

Uh, drinking some beers. It was cool to hear some stories from

the. From the Ryder cup with Jim.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, he did that little Q and A. I thought it was, you know,

it was interesting for me is Tim talking about how many

different golf balls are played on tour and how,

like, that impacted his choice on who

put him together, because the

alternate shot, you don't want, like, a high spin ball and a

low spin ball branding with each other.

>> RB: Well, the crazy thing is he said Brian Harmon

still uses a, uh, 2017 Pro V1, so he was having

a hard time getting those balls to ship to other players

to, uh, for them to try out. There was, I think,

uh, 12 guys on the team. I think he said they had 11 different

golf balls.

>> Cory Crowder: That's wild.

>> Jonathan: How do you go about getting a ball from 20? Like, you

call Titleists up, obviously?

>> RB: Well, we don't do that. But when you're Brian Harmon, you want to bridge open,

like, Right, that's fine.

>> Jonathan: Right. They got a little compartment for him, but, I mean, just the

patenting and the. The polyurethane shit that

goes in the ball and, and. And just.

I don't know. That's. That's pretty wild.

>> RB: They probably.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, you would think. You would think. All their machines are upgraded now, and

they're like. They can't, like, go backwards and

duplicate it.

>> Jonathan: That's what I mean.

>> RB: Or they probably shut down production and make

200 dozen for Brian Harmon.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, I played with. I, um, was

playing with a guy on Saturday, and I

got up to green on the fifth hole, and I look at the boss. It's

Trixon. I mean, there's only one guy I know that plays fricks on it's

BCATs, because he used to get them sent bulk for free.

So I'm like. I'm like, hey,

Ry, what's up with the Strix on, bud? Not that I care. I just

was curious. Right. He normally played Titleist. He said, dude, I've

picked up 5 to 10 yards with this ball

off of every club that I've used. He

said, in the field around the green is excellent.

I said, wow, that's impressive. I mean, I know

you got some guys like, what, Koepka and, um,

Matsuyama Hideki uses tricks on. I don't know who else,

but that's just something you don't see, you

know?

>> Cory Crowder: No, no. And you don't. I. I just

switched over to the Callaway Chrome Tour Triple

Diamond. Have you heard about that ball yet?

>> Jonathan: No.

>> RB: Is it lower spin?

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah. So it's kind of like the Pro V1, uh, left

dash. Yeah, it's like their version

of it. But, dude, uh, one of the guys at our club,

uh, one of our pros that works with Justin, told me about it.

He was like, man, I know your game. You need to hit this ball. And,

yeah, like you say, I picked up 5 to 10 yards

and I can't believe it. I mean, it's. You

wouldn't think a ball would matter that much, but

when you set up.

>> Jonathan: When you set up to play golf with someone and you see them teeing

it up with a yellow ball, doesn't care about the brand, but you

got someone playing with the yellow ball. I mean, do you take them serious?

No, I can't either. I mean, I understand

people are colorblind, but then again, why are they,

uh, usually above 70?

>> Cory Crowder: They're usually above 70 years old.

>> RB: Well, and the other thing that, the 70 year old

mark you have. How about all the 70 year olds wearing the

Jordan, uh, ones. Lowe's. I'm like,

what? But let's get you in a pair of foot

joys.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, I wear the George.

Yeah, I wear the Jordan Lowe's. I'm 42, so I.

>> RB: That's all I wear is Jordan golf shoes. So.

>> Jonathan: Those are great. Dude, check these out.

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, yeah, those are sweet.

>> Jonathan: Look at that baby.

>> Cory Crowder: Is that the new ones?

>> Jonathan: That's the prototype.

>> RB: No, they're not even out.

>> Jonathan: They're not even out.

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, man. Um, I need to get a pair of those.

>> RB: Guy that we've gotten close with, Gentry, he's the.

The VP of Jordan Golf, and he's

Jordan's right hand man. And that's the shoe that they make for Grove

23. And he

brought, uh, me an all white pair, which are amazing.

But then he pulled those out for Bash, and I wanted to. I wish I was

a size eight, because those things.

>> Jonathan: Three and a half, dude. By the way, they are sick.

In fact, that's why I haven't taken them off my desk. They're kind of

like a placeholder. They've been literally sitting on my

desk.

>> RB: Ben, there's a bunch of checks under there that you just keep

it as like your.

>> Jonathan: It's like a paperweight. He's like, are you ever gonna wear those shoes? I'm

like, probably not, but maybe.

I don't know. I don't know. I just bought a pair of

Sambas off Mabo. And they. He's got these cool

shoes. These, these Adidas Sambas

in with golf spikes on them. Now, uh,

they're badass. The only problem is they're like forest green

color, which is kind of dope for fall. But,

um, I just copped a pair of those today.

And, uh, nice play. I'm gonna wear those.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah. My wife. My wife gives me a hard

time for how many pairs of golf shoes I have. It's a real

problem.

>> Jonathan: Uh, do you, do you

keep them in any specific order? Are they just thrown

anywhere in your garage? Like, how do you keep your shoes?

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, dude, they're everywhere. Um, and I have

them. You know, if it's gonna be a muddy day, I'M wearing a pair that's, you know,

maybe a little bit. A little on their way out, you

know, and then, you know, the clean days, the nice, dry days,

I'm bringing out the fresh white Jordan Lowe's, you know?

>> RB: Yeah, yeah.

>> Cory Crowder: If I'm walking the course, like, stage, I'm wearing something

super comfortable, you know, uh, the.

>> RB: The Jordan Revs, the one with the strap over

the top. Have you seen them?

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, yeah.

>> RB: Most comfortable golf shoe I've ever worn.

>> Jonathan: Really?

>> Cory Crowder: All right, I'll have to give me a pair.

>> RB: 1,000%.

>> Cory Crowder: I have to get a pair.

>> RB: They're incredible. They grip right

now, so.

>> Jonathan: They grip, dude. Like, the. The

spikes in them are, like, real wide.

I mean, you know, if you try to spin out on a shot, you're not

spinning out, but your ankle is going to just go.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, well, you know, I can't believe how

much grip some of the, like, regular shoes have.

Like. Like the, uh, the

Jordan Lowe's you're talking about. I just got a pair,

um, the other day, and they're. I mean, you could wear them

as, like, shoes, like, just regular. Nobody

would know.

>> RB: Dude, I see so many people. I travel a lot, like,

for work. Walking through the airport, I see so many people.

I'm like, that's a Jordan golf shoe. Like,

and they wear them everywhere. It's hilarious. But it's

nice because you can, literally, if you're in a pinch or something,

you got to make a flight. You can just rock them and nobody's gonna say anything.

>> Cory Crowder: No, yeah.

>> Jonathan: They're so awesome.

>> Cory Crowder: Well, uh, it's kind of like basketball shoes. People wear basketball shoes for,

like, regular shoes. You know, it's just like, you say

golf's popular now, so they're having to make them for. For

style now.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, it's a great. You know,

I. I love it, man. I, uh, love it. We gotta try to figure out

some time to play some G, though, especially.

>> Cory Crowder: Because we got all kinds.

>> RB: Maybe we just meet. Nashville.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah. Or cut. Dude, y' all need to come to Lake Oconee. We got.

So Reynolds, we got seven courses.

Um, Cusco, Will is here. And then I just joined this new

club called the Hideaway that'll be open next year. That's going to be, like,

the best, most exclusive

club at the lake. I mean, it's going to be.

>> Jonathan: I've heard of that.

>> Cory Crowder: It's going to be like, like, top.

>> RB: Are you anywhere in Nashville?

>> Cory Crowder: No, I. I, uh. I mean, I spent

so much time here when I'm in Nashville, dude, I'm Usually on the grind. It's

usually like a morning session and that, you know, I'm doing a

dinner at night, um, or going to a show or something.

So I. I mean, I play troubadour sometimes if

I go out. But, um, I played with

Stell over at, ah, Legends.

>> RB: Oh, still Daddy.

>> Cory Crowder: Um, uh, earlier this year we played over at Legends, but, like,

you know, that's. I would say that's like few and far between, you know, I'm usually there

to work. I'll save my golfer here.

>> RB: He was my partner at Grove 23. I got him in the

blind draw.

>> Jonathan: And, uh, that was great.

>> RB: That's about it. We don't have much to talk about.

>> Cory Crowder: You laughed your ass off. He is

so funny.

>> RB: So funny and so quick.

So too smart, too, because he'll talk to me and I'm like, what

are you talking about? I have no clue what you're talking about.

>> Jonathan: He. He at one point had regular sized

clubs.

>> RB: Oh, my God.

>> Cory Crowder: I know. So he came here to get fit, uh, with

Ray at the Kingdom and, um, through

Sean. Yeah, Sean.

>> RB: That's our boy.

>> Cory Crowder: I've taken some lessons from Sean, too.

>> RB: He's a good dude.

>> Cory Crowder: Great dude.

>> Jonathan: Does the Hideaway. Are they going to offer lodging?

>> Cory Crowder: Yes. So it's going to be very much like Sage in that

you, uh, can come and it's like the whole experience, you know. So I

think the guy, if I'm not mistaken, the

builder, not the designer, but the builder that

did Sage is doing that course

and they. And so, like, our locker room setup is going to be pretty

similar with, like, the men's grill and all that.

I mean, it's going to be. It's going to be top notch, dude.

>> RB: Between that we got between that new place,

Sage, and then the 21 club that they're building down

near Sage, and then, um,

Tree Farm. I mean, there's so many of these, like, boutique. I'm

calling them boutique country clubs because that's what they are even

in Nashville. The Bounty Club.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah.

>> RB: Um, a buddy of mine's in on that Fuj.

And, uh, he had emailed me to docket to see

if I wanted to join. And I saw the price and I said, I'm gonna take a hard pass on

that one. But. But, um,

I mean, he's like, well, you can get your money back. Yeah, that's not the point. It's

about the front side of it.

>> Jonathan: He's like.

>> RB: So many, like, boutique country clubs

that are incredible.

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, yeah, man. Have you heard of, uh, Old Barnwell down

that way, too.

>> RB: Yeah.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah.

>> RB: They have an owl logo.

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, man, that course is sick.

>> RB: I really want to do Tree Farm.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, I mean, Tree Farm's amazing. Yeah, they. I

mean, they have champions. Uh, retreat down there.

I mean, dude, between here and an hour from here

is stupid. How much golf there is,

that's like, you know, like

championship level golf.

>> RB: Yeah.

>> Jonathan: Um, yeah, and I'm looking,

okay, I'm looking for a southern spot to

park. To park my hat.

>> Cory Crowder: Um, just come, Come and

come play. Let me show you around. Let me take you to play some golf.

Well, I fall in love with it, man.

>> Jonathan: Yeah. And I think my lady would really love it too, if there's something

to offer in that regard, too. Not that I, uh, don't want a

country club, dude. I don't want a country club. I don't want, like, some. I

mean, would I. Yes, but I'm saying I want some

vibes. I want a vibe, like,

I don't know. So that sounds good. Maybe. Maybe I'll come mosey on down

there and.

>> Cory Crowder: Dude, every time Ray Fulture is here, he's. He's

like, scheming on how he can move here. He's like,

dude, you've cracked the code. This is like the best place on

earth.

>> RB: Okay, I agree.

>> Cory Crowder: I agree.

>> RB: Ray is the best.

>> Cory Crowder: I was like, dude, come down here. We'll make a little music row in Lake

Oconee.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, that, that and all the boys

are from Georgia. A lot of them.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

>> Jonathan: Hey, before we, uh, wrap this up with you, Corey, I

want to ask you one last question here.

Who was your favorite artist to work with,

and do you see yourself maybe jumping genres at

some point in your producing career?

>> Cory Crowder: Um, maybe. You know, I mean,

I'm always open, you know, when I. You know, I never,

like, I grew up listening to rock and rap, and so

I never imagined that I would land in country.

Um, but I'm. But I'm good at it and I enjoy

it. It's fun. I kind of bring that side to

anything I do. So I would love a chance to like,

make a. A killer rock record one day. Yeah, that would

be really fun for me. I just. There's a

band, there's some of my best friends, and it's band called A Thousand Horses.

>> Jonathan: Okay.

>> Cory Crowder: You know that band?

>> Jonathan: I don't want to say I do, but I feel like I've seen it.

I've seen the name.

>> Cory Crowder: Well, they had a country. They had a country number one called Smoke.

Yeah.

>> Jonathan: Yes. That's it.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, yeah. And they, and they've had a few others that were like top

tens, but they just, I just wrote, they came down here

to do it and, uh, we wrote it all. But dude,

they're, they're making like a straight 90s rock.

Like.

>> Jonathan: Oh my God.

>> Cory Crowder: Really? Like, it's just gonna be so nostalgic for you if you

like 90s rock.

>> Jonathan: Yes.

>> Cory Crowder: Um, and their first song drops Friday.

>> RB: That's sick.

>> Cory Crowder: Um, from it. And, and so that was like one of

the most fun I've ever had writing

for a record. Um, I obviously

loved working with FGL because that

kind of brought that element in there a little bit too. And,

uh, those dudes are so fun. And I've known,

I've known Tyler for a long time. So. Tyler was

in, I used to lead youth group when I was in high

school and Tyler was in my youth group. He was in like eighth grade.

>> RB: Wow.

>> Cory Crowder: We go that far back.

>> RB: So you're still tight with him and all that?

>> Cory Crowder: Oh, yeah, him and BKA both. Um, I'm still

super tight with them. And uh, yeah. So that was

like. We went to the Bahamas to make that last

record and to Albany Club. You ever

heard of that one? That, that.

>> RB: Oh, man. Who's there?

>> Jonathan: There?

>> RB: I think, um. Oh, uh, he won the British Open.

>> Cory Crowder: Tiger's a member.

>> Jonathan: Darren Clark.

>> RB: Darren Clark.

>> Cory Crowder: Timberlake. I mean there, it's a, into

the studio there. Timberlake and uh, Alicia Keys

did. And dude, it was,

that's the most, I don't, I don't think it'll be impossible to top

that record making experience. I mean, we,

we were down there in the Bahamas playing golf,

getting out on yachts, you know, making a

record in like one of the most ridiculous studios I've

ever been in. Um, so that would, that's kind

of like my favorite. You know, if I, if I look at my,

my top tier, the thing to beat. That's the one.

>> Jonathan: That's so cool. I didn't

know you, I mean, I knew you were close, obviously, but the fact that he was in

your youth group, that's actually so spectacular.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, man, it was cool. I, I, I had a, I had a record deal

and Tyler moved to town, uh, to Belmont.

And I was at this thing, they used to call it Grammy Block Party.

It was like they blocked off Demumbrian, uh, Circle

and, and they'd have like, I think the year that this happened, I

think the Civil wars, if you remember them, they were playing.

>> RB: Yeah.

>> Cory Crowder: And, um, so they're playing and like, I'll Never forget Tyler

coming over and he's like, hey, this is my buddy bk. We're like,

starting a band and crazy. And, you know, and

I'm the one that had the record deal. And then, like, you know,

in two or three years time, we like Flip flop. I had lost a

record deal, and they're the biggest thing ever, you know?

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

>> RB: But everything happens as we know. Everything happens in this

world for. For a reason. Right? So.

>> Cory Crowder: That's right.

>> Jonathan: 90S nostalgic rock. Real quick, check out this band called

Royal Otis. They're out of Australia.

>> RB: Cool.

>> Cory Crowder: And let's write that down.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, seriously, dude. They're. They're two. Two brothers.

But it's. It's awesome.

They're good shit. Anyways. Okay.

>> Cory Crowder: All right, I got something to listen to now.

>> Jonathan: Yeah. Royal Otis. Um, Tap in

segment coming up here. Corey. Presented by

Betnardi Golf. Check them out online@betnardi.com

Pep's going to ask you some questions. Um, and,

you know, that's how we end the show.

>> RB: All right? One artist that

you want to sit down and write with or have a

cut with can

be passed. Post

Malone. He's the guy

right now. Dream, um, foursome,

Dead or alive.

>> Cory Crowder: Ooh, Dream M.

Foursome in golf, I'm assuming.

>> RB: Yes.

>> Jonathan: Wow.

>> RB: Yeah, wow.

>> Cory Crowder: Tiger woods for sure. John Daly.

Um, and I'm a big. I'm a big

Justin Thomas guy.

>> RB: I love it.

>> Cory Crowder: Um, and then, uh, if. If I

could. If I could have an honorable mention. Tony

Finau is the drippiest golfer on

tour. Love his style, love his.

Love his personality. Love that he's a family guy. I'd

love to spend some time with Finaule.

>> RB: All right. We just got to experience a concert

backstage, and it was incredible. So what was. Has been

your best backstage concert

experience?

>> Cory Crowder: Best, um, backstage. Fgl,

Nelly. We were on the back of the bus,

and Nelly was, like, holding court,

telling stories, um, that I won't repeat.

But they were awesome. And, uh,

and there was. There was lots of, uh,

extracurricular things happening on the back of the bus, as you can

imagine, with Nelly. Uh, but. But, man, that

was pretty epic. I mean, growing up listening to, you know,

Nelly, uh, that was in high school. That was.

That was pretty cool.

>> RB: All right, last one. What are you chasing, man?

>> Cory Crowder: I'm still chasing hits, and I'm chasing, um, I'm

chasing scratch golf.

That's my two goals. More hits and. And to

finally touch that zero mark.

>> RB: Uh, well, good luck to you in all of that, and

thank you so much for your Time.

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

>> Cory Crowder: Thanks, dudes. Appreciate it.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, man. Really appreciate it. Corey.

>> RB: Corey Crowder, thank you so much, my man, for coming on,

taking time out of your busy schedule. It was nice having a

little FaceTime chat with you and catching up on what's

been happening in the last year. Thousand Horses just

came out with their rock and roll songs.

I actually listened to them pretty good.

So, Yeah, I enjoyed it.

>> Jonathan: 90S rock, man. Where it's at now. That was

cool. You know, just hearing that whole side of things.

Obviously likes producing more and being behind the scenes a

little bit, and, uh, you know, he knows what the hell he's doing.

I did not share with him my experience of recording an

album. Uh, he would have laughed his ass

off. But it's. It's. That's.

It's a business that so many people aren't,

I guess, kind of privy to, you know, and it's cool that we get to hear

that stuff, man. So, Corey,

thanks for coming on the show, man. We hope you

keep chasing birdies and keep

honing in that game, because we are coming to Georgia.

>> RB: We're coming to Georgia and coming to Georgia chasing

birdies, too, man. Next year. Corey said no

excuses. All right.

>> Jonathan: Um, but you,

uh. You mess around with fantasy

football at all.

>> RB: No, like. But no, like, that's. What do you

mean? That's not real? That life is not real? Well, yeah,

I mean, but it's fun.

>> Jonathan: Dude, when you play for 10 bucks. You know what I mean?

>> RB: Yeah.

>> Jonathan: I just figured you being a degenerate, you would.

>> RB: No, but. But I will tell you this much. I'm 2.

0 to start the college football season. I'm taking the

parlay out that we lost, but

I'm 2.

>> Jonathan: 0.

>> RB: Uh, for the games.

>> Jonathan: Yeah. Yeah. Iowa State and Kansas got it done last

weekend, dude. Tonight, though, college kicks off

again.

>> Cory Crowder: Yeah, again.

>> RB: And I'm gonna tell you what, boys. Hammer Texas

this weekend. They are going to

run up and down, throw it all

around. It's gonna be beautiful.

>> Jonathan: I, uh, don't. You know. Yeah. Ohio State lost so many players.

It's gonna be. I think it's gonna be tough in them

pick off where they left off, but, you know, naturally they're good at

recruiting players, so. I don't know.

I don't think it's gonna be like that,

but I would give the slight edge to Texas for sure.

Um, Archie, he's starting out, right?

>> RB: Yeah, he's starting. I mean, he's only been there for three years or something.

I don't know. Um, he was

the he's number one ranked quarterback. Hasn't played a game yet, but he's number one.

It's funny how that works. There, um, is a king kid. I'm

actually going to go to a game here. Um,

McKeesport, this running back from a key sport, is the number one

running back in the country.

Committed to Penn State. Had five touchdowns last

Saturday.

>> Jonathan: No way.

>> RB: Yeah, I kind of want to go watch them now,

so. Um. But, hey,

we're going to be moseying around Columbus here in a few weeks,

and I'm excited to have a milkshake with you. We don't need

to talk about where we're going going. Just. I'm excited to have a milkshake with

you.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, I. I will definitely have a milkshake

there. There's no doubt about it. Oh, my God,

dude, I. I know you.

I could not stop laughing at that

Hole in One video of

Wiz. I could not. Dude,

I watched that thing now, naturally, I. I asked him for

permission to send it to me so I could chop it up a bit, little, little bit,

and we could share it on our socials. But, dude, that

video made me so happy. It was

so funny. Like,

I mean, he couldn't get his shirt off there for a minute, and

then I don't know if he was actually gonna take it off. Um,

and then he. The best part about it is he

says out loud, he says,

I never thought that I was gonna have one,

meaning a hole in one, which, you

know, most golfers, you never know, but everyone

always hopes they have one. Everyone always hopes to

have one.

>> RB: Well, Big G doesn't have one, so.

>> Jonathan: Which is absolutely insane.

That is insane. Your

dad plays how many rounds of golf a year?

>> RB: About 2. 20 a year.

>> Jonathan: 220 rounds of golf a year for the

last God knows how many years, and he

has not had one hole in one.

>> RB: M. Not one hole in one.

>> Jonathan: Oh, uh, my God.

>> RB: But congratulations to James Wisniewski,

um, on that, uh, life is

a highway, baby.

>> Jonathan: So I got, uh, I got to play

Nemecollen, uh, on Monday with, uh,

Sam Benardi BCATs. Sam was pegging it up

Tuesday in the, uh, USGA Mid amp qualifier. And,

um, Mystic Rock. I know at this point

now they've already aerated it, started it, so it's closed

for a little bit. But September, October, it's gonna

be rocking because it was great the last week and a half.

So if you guys in the area are looking for

some golf, maybe spend the day, come up to Nemacolan in

Farmington, Pennsylvania. Uh, Mystic Rock, Shepherd's

Rock. The lodging is off the charts.

And that is nemecollen.com. book your stay,

man. Come on up and play some golf.

>> RB: Especially in the fall.

>> Jonathan: You gotta do it. I'll tell you what,

you're gonna laugh at me, but, um, you know, I got my last

major of the year in September when I head out to

Pronghorn. And the last video

I saw of Steve Pering was not of him hitting golf

balls. It was of him drinking out of

the Stanley cup in Florida.

>> RB: Yeah.

>> Jonathan: So this shows where my partner's head's at right now, leading into the.

What could be the. Who knows? Who knows?

>> RB: That'll be the last one. I mean, let's just end this already.

>> Jonathan: Well, let's see how it goes, you know, I mean. But he's, uh,

been sending me range pictures of him with the range set up.

And we'll see, you know, we'll see what happens,

but should be a good time.

>> RB: Well, buddy, without further ado, everyone

have a killer week. We'll catch you in two.

Hope you enjoyed the the episode and

stay tuned.

We are working with a company on some badass hats

that, you know what, maybe we give them away or we sell them,

whatever. Um, you guys really don't support the.

The cups that much. Cool. Um, but

if you do want a, um, coffee mug or

to keep your mixed cocktail cold, head on

over to chaseandbirdies.com or

check us out on Chasing Birdies on Instagram.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, the mugs are great, and I just can't believe. So we might just

have to give the hats away. But the mugs are. If

you don't have one of our Chasing Birdies mugs, at the very least, do

yourself a favor. They're high quality, they're

premium, and they keep everything what you needed to be

kept that hot cold.

So. Yeah, but like he said, guys,

of Chase and Birdies. Thank you to Ally Emily

Evo over at Simpler Media for putting this thing together.
