Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Man, I don't know about y' all out there tuning in

Speaker:

today here on Chasing Birdies, but Thursdays just

Speaker:

feel better when we have a drop. It's just kind

Speaker:

of. It's just tradition for me, you know, every

Speaker:

other week or so we get to do this together. Have

Speaker:

an interview, have a guest, have a banner session,

Speaker:

whatever you want to call it. Let it fly, buddy.

Speaker:

Let it fly, J.P. that's what we're here for today,

Speaker:

the airing of grievances.

Speaker:

>> RB: I love it. I love it.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: How you been?

Speaker:

>> RB: Everything good?

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: I'm great. I'm great. You know, I'm great. I

Speaker:

think. I think the morning mindset is, um, is what

Speaker:

sets the days apart. And I mean that. I mean, I

Speaker:

know this is off topic from anything golfer silly

Speaker:

that we talk about.

Speaker:

>> RB: There you go.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: But it is, man.

Speaker:

>> RB: Why don't you dive into that a little bit?

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Well, the way you start your day with. With a

Speaker:

routine in place, whatever it is, whether it's a

Speaker:

walk, a read, a prayer, a meditation, something in

Speaker:

that quiet stillness of the morning between 5, 6,

Speaker:

whatever, 6, 7, 5 and 6, uh, it just gets you

Speaker:

going, dude. And from there, the rest of the day

Speaker:

kind of just unfolds.

Speaker:

>> RB: So, yeah, kind of all falls into place. Right?

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Yeah. You know, and I think people, again, I'm,

Speaker:

um. I just think people sometimes bear a lot,

Speaker:

especially with the responsibilities of life, and

Speaker:

it weighs people down and oftentimes they don't

Speaker:

know how to escape or become what they would feel

Speaker:

relaxed. So, you know, people rely on alcohol and

Speaker:

drugs to get shit done like that. But I'm just

Speaker:

telling people right now, listen, it can just

Speaker:

start with the mindset, period.

Speaker:

>> RB: Mhm.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: That's all it is. That's all it is.

Speaker:

>> RB: Well, it's hard. There's a lot going on in this

Speaker:

world right now. There is a lot going on. I just

Speaker:

had that conversation with somebody the other day.

Speaker:

I said, isn't it crazy? Our parents. I feel like

Speaker:

our parents didn't have to go through a lot of

Speaker:

what we're going through. Right? Like navigating.

Speaker:

I think like we are navigating on a daily basis.

Speaker:

Just, you know, it's so different circumstances.

Speaker:

We've been dealt all kinds of things.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: So different.

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah, it's just a wild time to be an American now.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: It's all perspective though, you know, because

Speaker:

like, here's an example. I'll use this. So like,

Speaker:

if I. If I was betting on a team and they were

Speaker:

down 21, nothing, and they somehow came back and

Speaker:

tied it up 21 21.

Speaker:

>> RB: Mm.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: I'd be stoked, right? If my team was down 21

Speaker:

nothing and they tied it up, I would say I have a

Speaker:

chance. But if my team that I bet on was up 21

Speaker:

nothing and they allowed 21 points unanswered and

Speaker:

tied the game up, I'd be mad. But guess what? I'm

Speaker:

in the same position on both. It's just how you

Speaker:

look at it. You still got a shot. So that's what I

Speaker:

tell myself every weekend.

Speaker:

>> RB: There you go. You always have, man.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: It's good to see you, bud.

Speaker:

>> RB: Uh, yeah, I mean, like, for me, I start my morning

Speaker:

routine a lot with a cup of coffee, some shit, uh,

Speaker:

vitamin C, scroll the phone a little bit. Um, you

Speaker:

know, I've taken a breather from one social media,

Speaker:

which has been, I will be honest, phenomenal for

Speaker:

my mental health. Um, just not scrolling that all

Speaker:

day long. My time on my phone's been cut down

Speaker:

significantly. Um, but it's been nice, dude. It's

Speaker:

been. I kind of miss seeing everybody, you know,

Speaker:

it's like one of those things. Like, I miss it,

Speaker:

but also it's been so nice. Um, and then, you

Speaker:

know, like, today I went on to Vuori.com. guess

Speaker:

what, bud? Guess what?

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Made an order.

Speaker:

>> RB: No. Another drop that is out of this world. And

Speaker:

there is a ton of new stuff on Vuori.com.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Check it. Uh, I'm telling you, dude, this jacket.

Speaker:

I can't take this jacket off. Like, I sleep in his

Speaker:

jacket. I wake up, I have this jacket on. I go to

Speaker:

bed, jacket on.

Speaker:

>> RB: They just came out with that today in green. So

Speaker:

maybe look behind the green one, bud. Maybe switch

Speaker:

it up a little bit.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: But, yeah, you were talking. It is. It's a little

Speaker:

bit different nowadays. And everything's, uh, at

Speaker:

your fingertips. Um, so you just kind of got to

Speaker:

get the, uh. Now you. That's what I was getting

Speaker:

on.

Speaker:

You mentioned the coffee thing. You know you a big

Speaker:

coffee drinker, right? Yeah.

Speaker:

>> RB: Five cups a day.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Black.

Speaker:

>> RB: Black coffee. My first cup of coffee, I put the

Speaker:

Shilajean, and then I just drink the rest

Speaker:

straight. So I have about five a day.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: There's this coffee roasting company out of

Speaker:

Delaware called Brandywine Coffee Roasters. Brandy

Speaker:

wine, B R A N D Y. And they have the, like. They

Speaker:

have these, like, bags of coffee that have, like,

Speaker:

different art features on them. It's so cool.

Speaker:

Like, it's just. It's just kind of. I don't know,

Speaker:

it's far out. But I had a cup of their coffee And

Speaker:

I was like, God, this coffee is phenomenal. Yeah,

Speaker:

this coffee is phenomenal. It's good. And they

Speaker:

were talking about the flavors you could taste. It

Speaker:

was like marshmallow, um, chocolates, berries.

Speaker:

Kind of like the one. The notes.

Speaker:

>> RB: I can't get into the notes.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Well, because I have a hard time deciphering too,

Speaker:

you know. So this, this one said we pick up the

Speaker:

marshmallow, you know, And I'm all, yeah, I

Speaker:

totally get into it. So I went on and I ordered a

Speaker:

shit ton of their coffee. So I have all but usps

Speaker:

because the shutdown is happening right now.

Speaker:

>> RB: Apparently in the country, you get screwed.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Uh, like now it's like, hey, instead of a three

Speaker:

day express delivery, it's like three weeks. I'm

Speaker:

like, my coffee still by the time it gets here. M.

Speaker:

You know, so I waited patiently. And not to

Speaker:

mention my lady, if there's a little bit. If

Speaker:

there's like a half a pot left and it's been

Speaker:

sitting out for like 35 minutes, it's still hot.

Speaker:

Well, she gotta dump it out, boys. It's not fresh.

Speaker:

So next thing you know, my brand new wine coffee,

Speaker:

I'm going through like a bag a day of beans just

Speaker:

to keep up with what's called a fresh pot of

Speaker:

coffee.

Speaker:

>> RB: Well, that's like just going down to the old wine

Speaker:

cellar and grabbing a nice bottle of wine that

Speaker:

says reserve and just having it on a Tuesday

Speaker:

night.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Well, I thought it was good because it was so old.

Speaker:

Well, yeah, that's right.

Speaker:

>> RB: But you got to send me that coffee. Um, you got to

Speaker:

send me that coffee company, because I totally

Speaker:

will. Is it. Does it come ground or is it no

Speaker:

beans?

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: It's whole beans. But I'm telling you, the bags

Speaker:

are so dope. It's all like this weird art and the

Speaker:

flavors incredible. So I was at a coffee shop in

Speaker:

Thomas, West Virginia, called Tip Top, and I got

Speaker:

a. Have you ever had a pour over?

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah, it's really good.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: So it was great.

Speaker:

>> RB: It's. It's great. But. But like, can we. Let's

Speaker:

speed it up a little bit. Like, I just want my

Speaker:

coffee. Let's go. I'm sitting there watching this

Speaker:

guy tell me about how many times he's pouring hot

Speaker:

water over the beans. And I'm sitting there like,

Speaker:

just. Come on, bud. Like, I get it. It's a great

Speaker:

art. Like, let's. Like that's not like, it's. If

Speaker:

somebody else is getting it for me, great. You

Speaker:

know, I don't have to wait there. But if I have to

Speaker:

sit there and wait and watch this guy pour hot

Speaker:

coffee over the grounds. I can't do it, dude. I

Speaker:

lose my mind.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Yeah, you definitely can't like just sit there

Speaker:

though, bud. Like read a book for 10 seconds. I

Speaker:

know it takes a little bit of time, but the coffee

Speaker:

tastes so good. So anyways, I got this pour over

Speaker:

called a Diego pour over. But they didn't ask me

Speaker:

for my name. So I'm in this coffee shop and

Speaker:

there's like 20 people there and I'm all standing

Speaker:

around and the guy just yells out, he yells Diego.

Speaker:

And I'm like looking around and I'm like, fuck,

Speaker:

that's me. So I'm like, yep, that's me. So I walk

Speaker:

up and get my coffee. So everyone probably thought

Speaker:

my name was Diego.

Speaker:

>> RB: Well, you kind of look like a Diego.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: So how was your last weekend of October, bud?

Speaker:

Halloween was last week. Last Friday kicked off

Speaker:

November already. It was great. Did you get any

Speaker:

trick or treating done?

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah, we got a lot of trick or treating done. Rode

Speaker:

um, around with Parker for about two and a half

Speaker:

hours on the phat scooter. Like I told you

Speaker:

earlier, I just put it away. I always put it away

Speaker:

about two days after Halloween because I drive

Speaker:

around on the fat scooter, light on, protecting

Speaker:

everybody. Um, cooler full beers for parents to

Speaker:

grab a beer if they'd like one. And then I tie

Speaker:

three or four bags, additional bags onto the back

Speaker:

so that Parker and his little buddies can dump

Speaker:

their candy in. And Parker and his buddies, since

Speaker:

it was Friday, um, he dumped three times, boys,

Speaker:

like the bag was dragging.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: No way.

Speaker:

>> RB: On the concrete. I indulged in far too many. Well,

Speaker:

and the problem is ultras.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Well, number one, you sound, that's pretty clever.

Speaker:

But number two, the problem is with these kids,

Speaker:

they get the candy and they think like it's,

Speaker:

they're never gonna get candy again in their life,

Speaker:

right?

Speaker:

>> RB: Dude, he, him and his friends throw the candy away

Speaker:

the whole time for 2 hours and 20 minutes. They

Speaker:

ran the whole entire time house to house. I'm

Speaker:

thinking like, maybe we just like walk and enjoy

Speaker:

the day. But they had a mission, dude, and they

Speaker:

accomplished it.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: So I heard a story of a trick or treater getting

Speaker:

mad some kid because he only got one piece of

Speaker:

candy from someone's house. And he said, what do

Speaker:

you mean you're only giving me one piece of candy?

Speaker:

And they said, well, because we got other trick or

Speaker:

treaters to come man, we gotta share. And he's

Speaker:

like, you guys are cheap.

Speaker:

>> RB: Mhm.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: And he kind of walked off. He's like a six year

Speaker:

old.

Speaker:

>> RB: Mhm.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: And I said, see, that tells a whole story right

Speaker:

there.

Speaker:

>> RB: Hm.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Tells the whole story.

Speaker:

>> RB: So he did that. And Parker, um, must have a thing

Speaker:

for LSU athletes. Paul Skeens, favorite gymnast.

Speaker:

What have he done? Maybe that's his dad's favorite

Speaker:

gymnast. That's none of your business. Um, and his

Speaker:

favorite football player is Justin Jefferson. So I

Speaker:

texted, uh, our buddies up there, Joe Strong, Andy

Speaker:

Brown, about, hey, if you hear of two tickets, let

Speaker:

me know. And, and you know, I'll, I'll, uh, venmo

Speaker:

you for the tickets or whatever needs to happen to

Speaker:

get them done. That was on a Tuesday. On a

Speaker:

Thursday, I get a text message, yo, got you two

Speaker:

tickets. Just get up here. Saturday night, Sunday,

Speaker:

we'll go to the game. P.S. parker's going to love

Speaker:

the seats. And I'm like, okay, let me know what I

Speaker:

owe. He said nothing, which is far too kind.

Speaker:

They're great, Joe and Andy and Joe's girlfriend.

Speaker:

Everybody was great. Everybody was great. Gave him

Speaker:

a, uh. So we moseyed on up to Detroit, had dinner,

Speaker:

went to some different stores. The buzzer went off

Speaker:

every time we walked in the store. I thought

Speaker:

Parker might have stole something from one store.

Speaker:

Like, long story short, there was nothing stolen.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Um, steeled.

Speaker:

>> RB: And then I fell asleep, uh, during the baseball

Speaker:

game and Parker. I woke up to Parker throwing the

Speaker:

computer chair in the room because he wanted the

Speaker:

Toronto Blue Jays to win because our hotel was

Speaker:

looking into Canada and he thought there would be

Speaker:

fireworks. Oh no. So they lost, um, but we went to

Speaker:

the game and it was incredible, dude. The Detroit

Speaker:

Lions, minus nine and a half, um, took them.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Terrible bet.

Speaker:

>> RB: The Vikings won 27, 24. And we were the first row

Speaker:

on the field. There was one row in front of us

Speaker:

that the guy next to me was like a season ticket

Speaker:

holder. And he was so upset. He said, I've had

Speaker:

these seats my whole entire life. They just put

Speaker:

this row in. It's like a VIP experience, right?

Speaker:

It's that row than us. There's nobody else. But it

Speaker:

was like, you know, uh, you want beers, they'll go

Speaker:

get them for you. You want snacks, I'll go get

Speaker:

them for you. Um, so he had Justin Jefferson

Speaker:

scored, he got hurt, he came back. It was, it was

Speaker:

a full day of emotions and he had the absolute

Speaker:

best time, dude. So it was really fun to watch him

Speaker:

smile the whole time.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Yeah, no, that's cool, man. Yeah, I was kind of, I

Speaker:

was kind of perplexed While you were going to

Speaker:

Detroit to, uh. It makes sense now, knowing

Speaker:

Parker, you know. Yeah, Parker's obsessed with jj,

Speaker:

but yeah, that was, that was like the number one

Speaker:

bet game last week on the whole board, not just

Speaker:

football. I feel like I read somewhere that that

Speaker:

game was number one bet, like the whole weekend of

Speaker:

all sporting events. It was Detroit over

Speaker:

Minnesota.

Speaker:

>> RB: Well, we couldn't have gotten it wrong.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: And I knew when one person that I know texted me

Speaker:

and told me that their lock of the day, their lock

Speaker:

of the day was Detroit, I knew better than to sit

Speaker:

there and buy into your BS just because you were

Speaker:

at the game and you got to root for the home team.

Speaker:

And so what happened? We went down together, bud.

Speaker:

>> RB: Mhm, mhm. We went down swinging.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Um, you know, if you would have faded me, um,

Speaker:

predominantly Sunday afternoon, 4 o' clock into

Speaker:

the evening, a wealthy man this afternoon, you'd

Speaker:

have been on tall cotton. Yeah, but we live and

Speaker:

die together, dude. You, you had a great run in

Speaker:

the baseball, I gotta tell you. Um, and that, that

Speaker:

was a pretty good game, um, Saturday night, but

Speaker:

you had a, you had a streak going.

Speaker:

>> RB: The, the baseball playoffs treated me really well

Speaker:

until the last two games is where I thought the

Speaker:

last game, the game seven, I thought when it was,

Speaker:

when it went to four, three, I'm like, the Blue

Speaker:

Jays are not winning this game.

Speaker:

They're just not winning this game. There's just

Speaker:

too much firepower on the other side. I had the

Speaker:

Blue Jays, I think, at plus 136 and, uh, they lost

Speaker:

an extra innings, naturally.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: So, yeah, yeah, it was, it was, it was

Speaker:

entertaining. So it, I've learned that the more

Speaker:

games you bet, the less luck you have. I mean,

Speaker:

I've learned that, okay. I've learned that year in

Speaker:

and year out for however many years, 30 years,

Speaker:

probably 25 anyways. So what I, what I really

Speaker:

think that I'm just going to do now is I've been

Speaker:

having a lot of fun on my little fanduel app doing

Speaker:

these like, 11, 20 team parlays. 11, 15 team

Speaker:

parlays. And I've been really having a good time

Speaker:

hitting like 10 out of 11, 9 out of 11. Been doing

Speaker:

that great. But the payouts are so long, large,

Speaker:

and obviously your chances of hitting them, um,

Speaker:

are virtually impossible.

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah. But if you do.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: But it's like 20 bucks for 75 grand. Bingo. Okay,

Speaker:

so I did that, uh, shit. Yes. On Sunday with money

Speaker:

lines of like all the football games. I was like,

Speaker:

I could pick every winner today just on the money

Speaker:

line. Screw the spread.

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: I'm just picking the money line winners. Right. So

Speaker:

naturally, I threw Pittsburgh in there. I threw

Speaker:

the Bears in there. I, uh, threw Detroit in there.

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: But I did not pick Carolina over Green Bay.

Speaker:

>> RB: They were going nuts. They. They broke the game.

Speaker:

They showed the game some highlights during the.

Speaker:

The Detroit game. And that crowd was going nuts

Speaker:

that Green Bay was losing.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Yeah, uh, but. But that. See, that's kind of fun,

Speaker:

though, because now it's like, okay, instead of,

Speaker:

like, all this straight money on the game, you

Speaker:

got, like, you got like 12 teams out there. But 50

Speaker:

bucks, it's like 130 grand, right? Insane. And I'm

Speaker:

like, that's. That's cool. So I'm gonna not lose.

Speaker:

>> RB: And you know what? If anyone's gonna hit one of

Speaker:

those, I know it's gonna be, uh.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: You're right. You're right. I am gonna hit it.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

>> RB: And when you do, it's gonna be for a lot, and I

Speaker:

know it. That's just. That's how the cookie

Speaker:

crumbles of Ryan Bashar.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Well, you know, it's just, hey, the little engine

Speaker:

that could. I'm just trying to keep it straight.

Speaker:

So I had to go to a Halloween party last Saturday

Speaker:

night. And, you know, I'm dressed up as Sonny.

Speaker:

Sonny boning, I was calling myself at night, or

Speaker:

Sonny, uh, Boner one or the other. But I'm

Speaker:

standing in the kitchen, and they have this spread

Speaker:

of food. It's like they roasted a pig in the

Speaker:

morning. They got pork sliders everywhere. They

Speaker:

got these queso dips with salsa and these nachos.

Speaker:

And sitting on the stovetop are about five bags,

Speaker:

unopened, of just corn tortilla chips.

Speaker:

>> RB: Oh, dip.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: So some mishap, um, was going on in the kitchen

Speaker:

with the host. He had a spoon, and he was hitting

Speaker:

everybody with the spoon. They run around in

Speaker:

circles in the kitchen, and I told the gal

Speaker:

standing to my left, I said, this is going to be a

Speaker:

liability. We're watching it happen. Because the

Speaker:

girl that he's chasing is going to bust her head

Speaker:

on the cabinet or the countertop and shit's going

Speaker:

to happen. No sooner than I say that, boys,

Speaker:

they're running past the stovetop oven, not gas

Speaker:

powered, by the way, and they bump into the knob

Speaker:

boys, and the Sparta, the. The spark lights, and

Speaker:

every bag of chips just caught on fire. And it was

Speaker:

raging, dude. Up into the. Up into the overdraft,

Speaker:

whatever it's called there. So my buddy, he's

Speaker:

standing next to me, Chris is standing right next

Speaker:

to me. And he's watching it. This is his house.

Speaker:

And he's looking at it, and he goes, well, we have

Speaker:

a fire. And I'm like, you think so? People? This

Speaker:

is the greatest thing in the world. People turn to

Speaker:

sink on and get little cups of coffee and start

Speaker:

the. There's a water faucet hanging off the wall

Speaker:

to fill up the pasta bowls with. Yeah, it's just

Speaker:

so. It's like, uh, hello? You know someone. Yeah,

Speaker:

someone. Finally, after the fire almost burnt the

Speaker:

house down, realized that, and so it created a

Speaker:

mess. Party went on.

Speaker:

>> RB: So nobody got an apartment come or anything? No

Speaker:

smoke detectors going off?

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: No. Apparently one of the guys was, like, a

Speaker:

firefighter, like, in real life, you know, and,

Speaker:

uh, fire. Well, yeah, hey, TK could have fought

Speaker:

that fire. I guarantee it. I guarantee it. But

Speaker:

this guy was there grabbing shit with his hands,

Speaker:

and I come to find out that he is, in some

Speaker:

capacity, a fireman.

Speaker:

>> RB: But, um, I do want to. I know we're talking about

Speaker:

a lot of things that's. I love that story. For the

Speaker:

simple fact that Chris just kind of. Oh, man.

Speaker:

Well, we got a fire. Me, I would be freaking out.

Speaker:

I do want to comment on, uh, Nemacol real quick,

Speaker:

just for the fact that we. I've played there twice

Speaker:

in the last two weeks, dude. And when I tell you

Speaker:

their greens are on fire, I'm not exaggerating.

Speaker:

Like, they are smooth and they are fast as. It's

Speaker:

incredible. The whole golf course is in great

Speaker:

shape. Like, in incredible shape. And we had a

Speaker:

hooting time. Play a little LCR one day. The other

Speaker:

day, we played Blind Man Draw. Two foursomes. We

Speaker:

had a good time. We had a hooting time.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: It's kind of that in between time where any chance

Speaker:

you get now you kind of want to try to take

Speaker:

advantage of it. You know what I mean?

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Because we know it's coming. But here's the

Speaker:

reality, dude. It's like the way time goes so

Speaker:

fast. I look back and think about August. I look

Speaker:

back and think about July, and that seems like

Speaker:

yesterday, dude. And we're talking. That is three

Speaker:

and four months away. I mean, behind us. Three and

Speaker:

four months behind us. So you know what? In three

Speaker:

months, looking ahead is going to be February. I'm

Speaker:

sure BCATS is going to throw us an old invite out,

Speaker:

maybe to the old Pelican Club down there in Tampa,

Speaker:

Clearwater. Um, I'm sure he's gonna want to mosey

Speaker:

on down there for a round in January. And, you

Speaker:

know, golf's gonna be starting right back up,

Speaker:

leading off with. With the old pine needle stuff.

Speaker:

But you're absolutely right, man. The golf course

Speaker:

has responded so well because I think the weather

Speaker:

and the greens and it's been sunny, it's ripping,

Speaker:

a little rain. It's great.

Speaker:

>> RB: It's been great.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: I don't think a driver.

Speaker:

>> RB: So my driver's cracked, which yours truly

Speaker:

discovered that. Because I'm like. And actually, I

Speaker:

talked to Eric Childers about this. Did he reach

Speaker:

out to you?

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: No, he didn't, but I. Wait. He did not. But I'm

Speaker:

gonna wait for the new one.

Speaker:

>> RB: Well, he. He had called me about something and we

Speaker:

were just chatting and I said, oh.

Speaker:

I said, oh, my God. I said, we. Because, uh, I

Speaker:

know you're not like that at all. But I said we

Speaker:

were playing golf. I said, bashes. I said, I

Speaker:

noticed something on bashes, like the toe where it

Speaker:

says Titleist. And it was cracked. And I said it

Speaker:

was. I think it. It was causing a little higher

Speaker:

ball and like spinnier. He's like, really? He's

Speaker:

like, oh, man, I gotta reach out to him. He's

Speaker:

like, they'll just send him a new head to at least

Speaker:

hold him over.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Well, uh, I mean.

Speaker:

>> RB: So Titleist, you know, like, um. Wake up.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Well, hey, that thing, the new one. Yeah. I

Speaker:

probably should get a new head, especially to get

Speaker:

me through the beginning part of next season.

Speaker:

>> RB: Well, dude, I mean, you don't know. What if you

Speaker:

don't like the new one, you're banking on liking

Speaker:

it. It might not be for you.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: And that's.

Speaker:

>> RB: I mean, I know you go get fit by some blind guy

Speaker:

down the street, but it might not be the right

Speaker:

head for you.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: My. My dad, he was at the house and I was. He was

Speaker:

talking about his club fitting. You know, we were

Speaker:

talking about it and I told him, I told you. I

Speaker:

said, man, I can't believe they whacked him for

Speaker:

whatever they whacked him for. You know, it was

Speaker:

like 50, some hundred bucks, whatever. And I get

Speaker:

it, dude. When you start adding in the premiums

Speaker:

that they add on to the shafts, the cost goes up.

Speaker:

And plus, this is a convenience factor, people.

Speaker:

Like whenever you go to true spec, you don't have

Speaker:

to. You just show up. They have every club in the

Speaker:

world, they have every shaft. You know, they can

Speaker:

set you up there and you know, often running, but

Speaker:

you get hit with a little bit of a surcharge. So

Speaker:

whether or not it pays off for him, I surely hope

Speaker:

it does, because I know he's looking forward to

Speaker:

playing some G. Yeah, I don't know. It's crazy.

Speaker:

It's crazy how much these damn clubs cost. I mean,

Speaker:

you're talking about a driver now. You could

Speaker:

easily spend fifteen hundred dollars on a driver

Speaker:

when you.

Speaker:

>> RB: Minimum. Minimum. And think about something like

Speaker:

TaylorMade that comes out with two a year or

Speaker:

whatever. Why are you coming out with two? If this

Speaker:

technology is so good, why are you coming out with

Speaker:

another one? Like, it's. It can't be that much

Speaker:

different technology. That's why I'm kind of like

Speaker:

on the Titleist Ping, uh, wagon. You know, every.

Speaker:

Every two years, they come up with a new, uh,

Speaker:

driver. You know, I'm assuming. I'm assuming new

Speaker:

vokies will be out next year, because this year

Speaker:

they did not come out. Um, so I'm interested in

Speaker:

that. I did just get these. If you can hold on for

Speaker:

a second. I just, um. The Nike app.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Oh, boy. You got a new pair of shoes, and the guy

Speaker:

has absolutely every pair that comes out. He's got

Speaker:

a gap. And the problem is you only have two. Two

Speaker:

feet.

Speaker:

>> RB: And I don't play enough golf. I know people are

Speaker:

gonna be like, yeah, right. I don't play enough

Speaker:

golf to have this number of golf shoes.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: But, yeah, dude, that kind of looks like you're

Speaker:

sponsored by Ferrari, so. This is sick. So what,

Speaker:

do you probably never wear them? Probably not.

Speaker:

Hey, did you see who Scotty Scheffler sponsored

Speaker:

with this week? This past week, he signed a deal

Speaker:

with this hits home to you, bud. Turtlebox.

Speaker:

>> RB: No way.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: The official sponsor now or music sponsor for

Speaker:

Scottie Scheffler. He is now partners with Turtle

Speaker:

Box.

Speaker:

>> RB: Oh, my God. And that's really cool.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: It is cool. And I saw them when I was in Vermont.

Speaker:

They had them in the, uh, one little store.

Speaker:

>> RB: Did you ever get one yet?

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: And I was thinking about it, you know, Zach had

Speaker:

asked me if I'd like to purchase one off him at a

Speaker:

reasonable price. And I said, yeah, Zach, I would

Speaker:

love one. I will pay that price. And I'd get.

Speaker:

Yeah, so. And that's been about eight months ago.

Speaker:

And it looks like you got yours. So I'm. I. I

Speaker:

guess I'm not getting mine.

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah, well, Zach, if you listen, we'll know if he

Speaker:

listens, because he'll reach out to you. But

Speaker:

that's. That's cool to hear.

Speaker:

I. Honestly, dude, I gotta be honest. I don't know

Speaker:

what the hell is going on in the golf world. I

Speaker:

don't know what tournament is I don't know where

Speaker:

they are. I don't know who's playing. The only

Speaker:

thing that I've seen relevant in the last few days

Speaker:

is, um. Oh, man. Who's the guy from Live tour from

Speaker:

Ireland or Graham McDowell? Uh, Graham McDowell

Speaker:

wants to throw his name into. Be the Ryder cup

Speaker:

captain, um, for the next Ryder cup, and he thinks

Speaker:

that he's gonna have a very difficult time getting

Speaker:

that due to being on the live tour and all the

Speaker:

politics that go into it. So that's a decision

Speaker:

that you made, bud. So you're not gonna be the

Speaker:

Rider Cup. I don't know.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Well, Jack Nicklaus won a 50 million defamation

Speaker:

lawsuit I saw last week. Basically good 50 million

Speaker:

for basically him. Them saying that he was, you

Speaker:

know, I don't know, gonna do something with Liv or

Speaker:

something to that effect.

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: So he won that. Which.

Speaker:

>> RB: That's just wild. You got. Hockey's really ramping

Speaker:

up. The Penguin is best team in hockey.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Right now, which is smoked by the jets last

Speaker:

weekend.

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah. Which is a big surprise that they. I mean,

Speaker:

we. They might come back to reality a little bit.

Speaker:

Um, college hoops. That's right around the corner,

Speaker:

but that's the one I can't wait for.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Oh, uh, so that's. That starts this week. I mean,

Speaker:

it's starting right now. College hoops.

Speaker:

>> RB: I wonder if Vanderbilt has a game on Wednesday.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: That'd be kind of cool. But I guess also in golf

Speaker:

news, LIV has basically, uh, made it a little

Speaker:

easier now to maybe get on the LIV golf circuit.

Speaker:

Um, well, they have to because they used to have

Speaker:

the Koala flying. Flying slights. I get sites over

Speaker:

in Dubai or somewhere. Now they're going to do it

Speaker:

down at Black Diamond Ranch in Central Florida.

Speaker:

And it's going to be a 72 hole event. How ironic

Speaker:

is that? Instead of.

Speaker:

>> RB: Sounds familiar.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: So you're going to see a lot more people who are

Speaker:

going to try to make it on there. Last year they

Speaker:

had 93 people. This year they're going to have

Speaker:

more. Now they got another site.

Speaker:

>> RB: So is that like. Does that mean like somebody like

Speaker:

Mason Williams can try for the live tour, or is it

Speaker:

not. It's not like that. Well, I guess invited to

Speaker:

that qualifier.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: I mean, I feel like it's. It almost read as if you

Speaker:

could try out if you want.

Speaker:

>> RB: For several times if you want.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: No, I mean, you probably have to have pro status

Speaker:

and all that, you know. But my, uh, whole thing is

Speaker:

if, like Mason, for example, left PGA Tour of

Speaker:

America's Americas, whatever it is, I Mean, he's

Speaker:

essentially probably banned from coming back to

Speaker:

what he's doing. Right. I mean, think that's what

Speaker:

the whole problem is.

Speaker:

>> RB: Yeah.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: So I still don't get it, because it's just golf.

Speaker:

Just play golf. Um, everybody just play golf.

Speaker:

>> RB: Well, we were supposed to be, uh, at our favorite

Speaker:

spot in Nashville this week, and our buddy, who's

Speaker:

in left field, had no clue that it was closed. His

Speaker:

own place was closed for a week. So, um, we are

Speaker:

not playing there. Um, but some exciting news. I

Speaker:

mean, Pittsburgh's getting a concert two days.

Speaker:

Vegas, uh, Morgan Wallen's tour is back next year.

Speaker:

So that's kind of exciting. I know all the.

Speaker:

Everybody that came last year to. To the concert

Speaker:

or two years ago when we all went. Right. It was a

Speaker:

blast. We had a blast. And my girlfriend is

Speaker:

opening for him, so of course we're gonna have

Speaker:

Ella.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: And that's interesting. I mean, you kind of are

Speaker:

like, yeah, she's on fire, dude.

Speaker:

>> RB: She's on fire.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: She is on fire. I still think we should play Old

Speaker:

Hick.

Speaker:

>> RB: And, uh, we land at 2 o', clock, and it could

Speaker:

start at 4:45.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: You know what? We. We could have, like, quicker

Speaker:

play faster.

Speaker:

>> RB: Or, you know, what's the saying? If you play bad,

Speaker:

play quicker or something? Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

Speaker:

A lot of interesting things going on.

Speaker:

>> RB: Dude.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: It's great. No shade, no shave. November is

Speaker:

underway, so maybe you should. You should go the

Speaker:

whole month and not shave. Like, seriously, you

Speaker:

could be the guy that could do that.

Speaker:

>> RB: Do you want me to do this?

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: I'm saying you should, because yours comes in,

Speaker:

like, so quick and, like, symmetrical and great.

Speaker:

Like, by November 30th, that'd be. That'd be

Speaker:

something for you and Gray. And Gray. Whatever.

Speaker:

>> RB: Um, but our reason for going down to Nashville, we

Speaker:

are going to do a interview with a close friend of

Speaker:

ours, which is going to be a blast. Um, so our

Speaker:

next episode will be with Ray Fulcher. It'll be a

Speaker:

good chat. I'm excited to see the guy. I love how

Speaker:

he says my name, which, if you'd care to say it

Speaker:

the way he does, it's hilarious.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: Paypay. Hey, Pay.

Speaker:

>> RB: We're gonna see what Paypay is doing.

Speaker:

>> Jonathan: What's up? Hey, Pay. I love it because when he

Speaker:

says it to you and he's like, hey, Paype, what you

Speaker:

Speaker:

this because of you. I say that. Pepe.

Speaker:

Speaker:

Speaker:

low, looking up, um, and on the rafters or like on

Speaker:

the boxes. You know how they retire numbers and

Speaker:

people's names. 1959 and 1972. Dick.

Speaker:

there and it was, it was cool to see.
