WEBVTT

1
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:34.960
I want some bonus content. Pluck
me in, Bikey's not even good yet.

2
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:40.399
Good morning. We're gonna officially start
the show at six. You're you're

3
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:47.039
getting some undertime because it was before. All right, maddie, if you

4
00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:53.439
would crank my audio up, because
today headphones, we're beginning. Okay,

5
00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:57.600
everyone is good. It went good, Sulivan Alrea. Sometimes the news junkie

6
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:02.840
they don't time out their show very
well. News Junkie, they they will

7
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:06.239
quit four minutes early on you.
We won't ever do that to you.

8
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:11.959
And what we have today is a
bit of undertime. And before we start

9
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:15.120
playing that, I have to find
what I need to find. Take your

10
00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:19.079
time, Kevin, you've got four
hours. I like that. Yeah,

11
00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:23.439
I like that. No pressure.
We're off the books right now, so

12
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.959
we can kind of do whatever we
want technically, you're right, yeah,

13
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:30.799
And why would we want to do
great stuff here to contribute to the news

14
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:37.200
junkie ratings? We have four three
minutes, it doesn't matter. Yeah,

15
00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:42.239
let's do free fall, dude,
I don't like it. Four minute free

16
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:48.680
fall, free fall Junior. Yeah, you host neither day and I get

17
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:53.840
eliminated in one minute and one of
us goes home. Yeah, I'm confident

18
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.159
the powers that be that don't like
free Fall don't start listening until right at

19
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:00.239
six a m. Two. That's
where you That's why I said, freebie.

20
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:05.200
That's funny that you think that the
powers that be are actually listening.

21
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:10.960
Who are the you know? Oh
yeah, yeah, that's not I don't

22
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:15.360
know. Good morning, hot boys. How are we doing? Everyone feel

23
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:17.400
good? I was gonna play some
stuff we're on. Let's just do the

24
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:22.080
show. I guess I got an
obscene amount of sleep last night. I

25
00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:25.360
was in like zero sleep. That's
great. Eight, You got the sleep

26
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:30.400
I needed, so we're good.
I took it from you. Eight.

27
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:35.800
Funny did you nap? Uh?
Not really? I tried. I had

28
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:38.599
Kevy and I had a little adventry
yesterday which we can chat about at some

29
00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:43.599
point. And speaking of taking it
from me, good God took his manhood,

30
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:53.120
my dignity, my future in golf. But I annihilated. I'd lay

31
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:57.400
down with a nap. And there's
that debate. Does does the rest count

32
00:02:57.400 --> 00:02:59.759
as a half nap? What do
you think in your head? You know,

33
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:01.840
yes, I think it does too. I do think it does.

34
00:03:01.879 --> 00:03:06.199
Not like you're getting an RM necessarily
every time you nap. I'm saying,

35
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:09.560
lay down, relax, even if
you're looking at your phone a little bit,

36
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:15.400
then you get up an hour later. I feel like that's something I

37
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:17.240
don't know. I gotta say my
mind's kind of blown on that question.

38
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:24.400
Rest counts a half nap, Yeah, it's rest zero point five of a

39
00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:29.120
nap. If it's even half,
man, it counts as some point three.

40
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:36.319
Yeah, you're not getting that restorative
sleep that you need. But yeah,

41
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:40.560
it's better than you know, running
around doing stuff. Yeah, just

42
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:45.639
sitting there or lying there, it
is better. I got an almost two

43
00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:52.080
hour nap yesterday and still by nine
o'clock I was tired. Man. I

44
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:53.680
don't know what it was about yesterday, but I was ready to go to

45
00:03:53.719 --> 00:04:00.879
bed early last night too. But
they find some there's some rebellious thing within

46
00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:09.039
me that sees the clock and if
it's before nine thirty, my mind won't

47
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:15.240
allow me. It tells me,
no, you are not going to sleep

48
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:20.079
before nine o'clock. No, that
is not human. Did I fight it?

49
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:27.800
Did you dream of me? I
was so tired, Mikey that I

50
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:30.319
did not dream of you. I
said on the text thing that I asked.

51
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:32.600
I asked you to dream of me, oh, during my nap,

52
00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:36.199
either of anytime I dream about you, I dream about both of you,

53
00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:43.519
guys equally ruin. He was just
watching in the corner with his phone out.

54
00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:46.439
There was a weird note about wanking
in there too. What are you

55
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:47.839
talking about? Yeah, you did
write that, and don't act like you

56
00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:51.120
didn't have that on the air.
The show's officially started one seconds ago.

57
00:04:51.240 --> 00:04:56.160
That was a typo. I set
it aside for future HR purposes. Damn

58
00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:59.800
auto correct. We already need to
get it at any he's telling us to

59
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:02.920
tell ourselves. Yeah, yat are
corrected because he was texting me about Fred

60
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:09.800
Funk Aaron Masters week. By the
way, you're learning to wank listening to

61
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:13.399
k E G L F M ninety
seven to one the Freak. Here's your

62
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:17.800
legal ID Dallas the top of the
hour. Where's our tower? All right?

63
00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:20.600
Is it? I think so?
I think all the towers are down

64
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:24.040
there, same spot, right?
Or is it kind of grand plus?

65
00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:30.680
There's something there's something uh near Valley
Ranch, But I don't know if they're

66
00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:33.879
used for radio. I don't know. You start talking about things like that.

67
00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:40.560
I was old the tower the ticket
was up way north right like Sherman

68
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:46.199
or something sanger sanger, yes,
dang, yeah, I don't know about

69
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:48.360
that. Man. I get south
of twenty and I can't hear you guys.

70
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:53.560
Well, I would be three minutes
away from the American Airline Center and

71
00:05:53.600 --> 00:06:00.560
I would be hearing a Mexican station. That's racist, Hispanic station. I

72
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.920
don't know. Oh, you're fine. It says on the ratings it says

73
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:08.560
Mexican. I'm just teasing, Kevin. It's what it says, right,

74
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:13.680
doesn't say Spanish speaking, it says
Mexicans. Christina gets mad at me when

75
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:18.360
I even say the word Mexican because
she feels like it's it's not it's not.

76
00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:23.720
I'm like, it's saying American.
I know, And I said I

77
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:25.839
was. I did it in the
sentence. I literally looked at her at

78
00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:30.519
dinner and I said, you know
what, I love Mexicans. They're fun,

79
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:33.839
They're amazing. All my neighbors,
friends, all these business owners,

80
00:06:33.839 --> 00:06:39.600
they're all so friendly and nice.
And this weird country has problems with everybody.

81
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:45.240
Yeah, like, you're so lucky
to live amongst amazing Mexicans. We

82
00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:48.040
forget that. But do you know
why it is? It's because it has

83
00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:53.680
those two real hard consonants with the
M and then the X right in the

84
00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:58.720
middle of it. It just sounds
like you're saying something I don't know,

85
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:03.959
forceful. Yeah, like there's ill
intent behind what you're saying. And if

86
00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:10.720
you don't follow that word with food, it just it feels odd. Right.

87
00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:15.240
Yes, it's weird to look at
your girlfriend and go, I love

88
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:18.759
Mexicans. Yeah, it's odd thing
to say out of nowhere. I'll say

89
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:26.360
it, I love Mexicans. JJ
is out mysteriously, Maddie is in.

90
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:31.439
Maddie. Are you a Mexican a
Mexican? Are you a Mexican? I

91
00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:35.160
am a Mexican. You are?
Congratulations on that. Thanks, we like

92
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:44.120
you. I think my mom and
my grandma were Mexican from Mexico. No,

93
00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:50.160
my mom's from Chicago, Chicago.
My grandma's from would that be you

94
00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:56.560
speak so do I? Hyeah?
Yeah? Give him, give him a

95
00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:59.959
shot, have a nice conversation if
we want to. We don't have to

96
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:03.319
show started. Oh okay, well
you should have got to this at five

97
00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:07.079
point fifty six. Wow, we're
playing free Fall ont of Mike. So

98
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:11.040
many parlor tricks fall. Freefall was
fun. That was great, Kevin,

99
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:18.319
that's over damn. So the latest
is, uh, I just saw it

100
00:08:18.360 --> 00:08:24.079
on the thing behind your master's start
has been delayed how much? They say

101
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:26.720
at earliest will be nine am Eastern
eight am here, but it was originally

102
00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:30.720
that's only an hour delay. That's
confirmed. Just talked to me five hours

103
00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:33.120
earlier. Yeah, exactly. Well, we still might get there. And

104
00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:37.159
I think they delayed opening the gates
at Augusta National two. But originally seven

105
00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:39.120
am it was supposed to start here. That's one hour from now. Now

106
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:45.440
it's going to be at least two
hours. So I am depressed. So

107
00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:48.559
when I get to watch any golf
today on the shift, No, you

108
00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:52.879
don't know that. I just said
it might start open the gates until eight.

109
00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:54.360
It could start at eight, it
could start at eight. It probably

110
00:08:54.399 --> 00:09:00.759
won't start till what nine thirty or
ten? Probably probably. Well it's fine

111
00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:05.080
then, you know what, you
have undivided attention on golf when you get

112
00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:11.440
home. Yeah, condensed, great
golf. Yeah, all week, today's

113
00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:16.919
today going today the day, so
much golf. In fact, I'm gonna

114
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:20.120
set up a tiny screen. They'll
have more golf, like a feature group,

115
00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:24.960
and then I'm gonna have another tiny
screen set up to watch Leclerk blow

116
00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:31.240
save. It's gonna be good afternoon
of sports. Not sports, I would

117
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:35.600
say recreation. That's what I would
call it. Just the best. Don't

118
00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:39.480
leave your couch four days in sports, Yes, I guess if you're psycho

119
00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:43.320
for college basketball or betting on that, that's the only other really contender.

120
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:46.720
Yeah, but nothing lasts as long
as this does when it comes to like

121
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:52.120
the one event. I mean,
heck, even your long five hundred mile

122
00:09:52.279 --> 00:09:56.159
NASCAR races are only a few hours
and one day. This is four full

123
00:09:56.320 --> 00:10:01.039
ass days. Yeah, from sun
up to sundown. Man, there's people

124
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:03.000
who just don't care. And I
get it. You know that, I

125
00:10:03.080 --> 00:10:05.679
got go watch a ton of it. Oh bunch. Now, people who

126
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:09.159
don't care, they just they don't
like I mean, they can't make people

127
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:13.080
care about something like they have to
like No, No, it's like they

128
00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:20.600
have to like dive into some form
of watching content on the Netflix show or

129
00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:22.480
something. I mean, I got
a buddy yesterday. I love this guy.

130
00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:26.360
He is a great friend of mine. But he's sent in a group

131
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:28.080
chat I'm in with my brother and
some of his rents. He sent me

132
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:31.600
a video he goes, this is
why I hate golf. And he sends

133
00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:35.960
the video of Zack Johnson, well
just his face just freaking out, it

134
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.720
freaking out of fans making noise at
the players last month, and I was

135
00:10:39.720 --> 00:10:43.039
like, well, you have to
understand, everyone who likes golf hates Zack

136
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:48.679
Johnson. So you you were in
the group of people that was in Phoenix,

137
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:52.000
Yeah, whatever any was, You're
letting Zack Johnson set that example.

138
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:56.360
But I think even people who don't
watch golf regularly don't care it's Sunday the

139
00:10:56.360 --> 00:11:01.440
Masters is I would love to hear
that, because that that's just something you.

140
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:05.679
Yeah, even if you never watch
any PGA any you're aware of the

141
00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:11.440
majors, you like sports, you'll
watch Master Sunday or throw it on for

142
00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:13.759
a couple hours. I think there's
a big group of people do that.

143
00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:16.879
And yes, there are something that
just don't turn it on all week and

144
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:18.360
do not care. And I get
that, but I used to be that

145
00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:24.480
way. I used to be the
person that that, for no reason whatsoever,

146
00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:31.080
just blanket hated golf, the uncultured
mongrel, because it was cool to

147
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:35.879
hate golf. But if you like
sports and you like drama, there's incredible

148
00:11:35.960 --> 00:11:41.519
drama in these especially in these big
tournaments, these high leverage tournaments, and

149
00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:43.879
just like anything, if you immerse
yourself in it, just a little bit

150
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:48.600
like watching for a couple hours and
you start to absorb a little bit of

151
00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:50.080
the drama and oh, oh,
there's he's on this hole now, that

152
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:52.559
guy just screwed up this whole.
Even if you don't like off or don't

153
00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:56.799
play it, I would think that
you can be captivated by the drama of

154
00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:00.399
sport. Yeah. Now, if
you don't want to be, look the

155
00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:01.879
experience towards a lot of people.
They wear it as a badge of honor

156
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:07.200
to be cooler than everything, and
everything is below them. And I thought

157
00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:11.120
when we saw the eclipse, that
changed. I mean maybe it did.

158
00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:16.159
Look the story is yet to be
completely written about how the eclipse affected us

159
00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:22.120
personally and spiritually. We'll see in
the days to come. But you know

160
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:24.960
we're early on in that endeavor.
Keviny, you know Rock said to me

161
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:28.480
last night, she said, get
off of me. The eclipse. Now,

162
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:33.919
yeah, I think, no,
Jesus, please keep you. I

163
00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:39.039
think, did you shower? I
think the eclipse changed me. I said

164
00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:45.080
that time of the month, oh, Kevin, And she said no.

165
00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:48.799
But I was hoping that she would
say yes so I would have a validation

166
00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:54.320
for the theory. But I was
like okay, and she didn't have a

167
00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:58.279
good answer for how. I don't
feel changed. I feel like I saw

168
00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:03.840
something awesome and I definitely like and
now I schedule a vacation around going to

169
00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:09.279
Alaska in twenty thirty three, which
I won't do. All right, we

170
00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:11.559
all thought it well thought it though, like, yeah, if you like,

171
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:15.799
you just like see what it's like. I've never been to Alaska.

172
00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:20.320
But do you feel changed at all? Danny? I feel like I had

173
00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:24.320
a really unique, once in a
lifetime experience. I don't think that this

174
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:28.600
moon going in front of the sun
for four minutes and blacking out my neighborhood

175
00:13:28.679 --> 00:13:33.240
changed me. Your circadian rhythms are
still on. Yeah, yeah, Kevin,

176
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:37.960
I got my period today. Everything's
fine, everything's on, skeed not

177
00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:39.919
a boy, Danny. Yeah,
uh No. I don't think it changed

178
00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:43.360
me, but it definitely added something
to my life that wasn't there before.

179
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:48.879
And if that's changing someone, even
in a small way, yeah maybe it

180
00:13:48.919 --> 00:13:52.480
did. It's adding to the complex
painting that is Danny Baylis. Okay,

181
00:13:54.000 --> 00:14:00.960
what'd you call him? A minutego
the uncultured, uncultured mongrel a greet and

182
00:14:01.799 --> 00:14:05.720
but you know, and I hear, I hear the noise, the subtle

183
00:14:05.799 --> 00:14:11.519
jabs when it comes to us,
especially yesterday, we spent a fair amount

184
00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:16.000
of time discussing golf's biggest event.
And if you find the sport, I

185
00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:20.600
understand. But look, if you
like the guys, if you like Mikey

186
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:24.000
and you like Kevin, it's it's
kind of like, look, you're having

187
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:30.080
a Maybe your spouse does something that
isn't your favorite, like I don't know,

188
00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:35.480
maybe telling a story, and you'd
rather be anywhere but there. But

189
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:41.840
you still love your spouse, and
as your duty to the love that you

190
00:14:41.919 --> 00:14:46.159
share, you try to participate.
Maybe you actually listen, we hear what

191
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:50.320
your spouse has to say. I
didn't know you're gonna say. Listen,

192
00:14:50.440 --> 00:14:54.399
I figure you met in a couple
of nods and a uh huh. That

193
00:14:54.519 --> 00:14:58.799
counts your present. Let me just
say that your body is present your present.

194
00:14:58.320 --> 00:15:03.440
Ye oh up, that's all we're
asking. You might get something out

195
00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:05.639
of it. We imagine the nodding
and hus for the next four days.

196
00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:11.600
Mm hmmm, huh yeah, oh
oh really. Oh and then he had

197
00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:16.360
his blinker on, but he didn't
turn Wow, honey, did you turn

198
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:20.879
off auto pay on Netflix? Yeah? I did. I'll take I did

199
00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:24.480
take care of it, I said. Or the long What do you think

200
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:28.960
about long bathroom breaks? Well,
you go in and sit in the bathroom

201
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:35.759
and then head down on YouTube TV
on the Master's appy, dude in packed

202
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:41.879
house, spend some time in the
bathroom. That's not productive. I think

203
00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:46.279
about my brother every day, really
just hiding a lockers all under the age

204
00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:52.600
of six, oh man, just
you know, running around and making noises

205
00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:56.960
and clanging things off of things,
damaging the walls. I would imagine,

206
00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:02.639
Yeah, hysic, poor guy.
There was a time when he loved the

207
00:16:02.679 --> 00:16:07.039
Masters. I don't even know anymore. I mean, I know he's locked

208
00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:11.279
in and he cares, but I
always wonder, you know. I also

209
00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:15.000
think about this too, Like the
golf thing like that was we talked to

210
00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:17.440
a little golf yesterday and we came
a little time and we fought back.

211
00:16:17.559 --> 00:16:22.399
We're gonna lot text reaction were a
part of our job is to I think,

212
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:25.559
please a lot of people. Right, Like, if you're broadcasting,

213
00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:27.600
they call it broadcasting, so be
as broad as possible. I guess I

214
00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:33.639
don't really know that's but yeah,
one of the biggest stories in America this

215
00:16:33.720 --> 00:16:38.080
week is the Masters, like it's
undeniable, like the it just is.

216
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:44.919
And there are probably people who were
rolling their eyes at that statement. But

217
00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:49.360
I was thinking about this a lot, Like we had discussions before the show

218
00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:56.919
in text messages, even in breaks, like I don't know if I personally

219
00:16:56.960 --> 00:17:03.119
thought that the system was flawed or
something, and I really thought that it

220
00:17:03.160 --> 00:17:06.759
mattered, I might have been like, you know what, maybe we should

221
00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:10.559
do the proper thing. But I'm
kind of at the point of I don't

222
00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:15.519
care, so I'm gonna do what
I want to do. And I knows

223
00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:19.599
there's no deeper there's no deeper meeting
anyone should read into that. But I

224
00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:22.839
kind of just like, let's just
do it, and if someone has a

225
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:27.200
problem with it, good, that's
good. If people have a problem with

226
00:17:27.279 --> 00:17:32.039
us, great. I kind of
think that's the way I need to.

227
00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:36.519
I've been too down the f and
middle my whole life, and that's why

228
00:17:36.559 --> 00:17:38.319
i'd like to tell you I'm voting
for Donald Trump in the twenty twenty four

229
00:17:38.359 --> 00:17:48.519
election. I endure, I love
it. Thirteen million viewers after the Ash

230
00:17:48.559 --> 00:17:52.480
Effler on Sunday two years ago.
Thirteen million. Yeah, I mean that's

231
00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:59.519
huge. It's a lot. That's
like real that Young Shelton numbers quantifiable facts.

232
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:06.000
Mike, I understand your recent your
your recent shift in voting habits.

233
00:18:06.160 --> 00:18:11.240
And after seeing the eclipse video,
I get it. The Donald Trump eclipse

234
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:15.119
video. That was amazing. It's
incredible. Oh, it was so good.

235
00:18:15.599 --> 00:18:18.880
Credit him a little. There's a
lot they're doing bits too. Yes,

236
00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:25.519
they absolutely they know his silhouette covering
the sun. It's so good.

237
00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:27.759
I mean, it's all like they're
incapable of doing things that are kind of

238
00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:32.640
tongue in cheek funny. Well,
and they both tried it because Biden did

239
00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:37.599
the thing where he took a picture
at the spot where are supposed to look

240
00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:41.440
like the background where Trump looked up
at the sun during the twenty seventeen eclipse,

241
00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:45.759
and Biden did the same thing.
And it said it said don't be

242
00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:49.960
uh or I said use your noggin
or something, you know, wear glasses.

243
00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:53.359
It was like a simple thing that
one of his social media people put

244
00:18:53.400 --> 00:18:56.440
out. It's like, okay,
you got that. Well, here as

245
00:18:56.480 --> 00:19:03.400
a ninety second pre produced video where
Trump silhouette of his head, is the

246
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:10.039
shape of the moon or the size
it takes to block out the sun.

247
00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:15.000
It's so funny. The most important
human event in history. We can make

248
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:18.680
a vergit radiant. I mean,
look, I'm sorry man Biden's look up

249
00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:25.759
the sun with the glasses thing cool. This video is pretty badass. You're

250
00:19:25.799 --> 00:19:30.599
losing there. I don't know.
I don't know. Some said some toes

251
00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:33.480
I'll comment. They were like,
well, they're talking about everything on the

252
00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:37.559
station. Like so if sports and
politics are a part of our culture,

253
00:19:37.559 --> 00:19:41.960
I would rather lean into sports than
lean into politics. Amen. You hardly

254
00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:45.279
ever hear us talking about politics unless
it's something just funny. Yeah. Some

255
00:19:45.440 --> 00:19:51.759
guy reach out to me on Instagram
and sent me a message saying that he's

256
00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:56.440
done because all we do is rip
the right. Oh who care? And

257
00:19:56.759 --> 00:20:00.000
I wrote back and I said,
dude, I go, please provide.

258
00:20:00.079 --> 00:20:04.880
I had some specifics as to you
know, something's be specific. What was

259
00:20:04.880 --> 00:20:07.880
said that upset you? Wasn't being
defensive. I was like, I really

260
00:20:07.920 --> 00:20:11.319
want to know, because we kind
of I don't know. It's not like

261
00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:15.599
a mission of ours to not be
political, but it doesn't benefit us.

262
00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:21.359
And honestly, I think the show
in this station kind of provides an escape

263
00:20:21.359 --> 00:20:23.799
from that because it's everywhere you look. That's the idea, and I just

264
00:20:23.839 --> 00:20:29.119
try to It's like, look,
if there's something more entertaining or lighter than

265
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:36.000
some heavy ass political thing that's out
there, I'll definitely divert to those stories

266
00:20:36.039 --> 00:20:40.079
as opposed to the ones that are
just readily available and there's no middle ground

267
00:20:40.119 --> 00:20:41.960
on them. And I was like, please, because I mean, personally,

268
00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:45.680
I think if we ever do bring
up politics, and we're pretty equal

269
00:20:45.720 --> 00:20:51.240
as far as who we make fun
of, you know, And I said,

270
00:20:51.240 --> 00:20:53.079
I'd like to be mindful of it
moving forward because if I did anything

271
00:20:53.079 --> 00:20:57.759
to piss off the right. He
didn't like your fake Ted Cruz maybe maybe

272
00:20:57.839 --> 00:21:02.720
because it was so good it really
it just hit too close to home.

273
00:21:03.400 --> 00:21:08.240
It was such an authentic representation of
Sweet Dead. Somebody wrote golf is just

274
00:21:08.279 --> 00:21:11.720
boring to watch. I understand it's
likely fun to play, but I just

275
00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:14.640
don't see the appeal of getting that
energy that I love from a sport.

276
00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:15.640
I have no problem with golf,
and I don't hate it, just not

277
00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:22.000
for me fair enough. I think
the point of all sports is watching the

278
00:21:22.039 --> 00:21:26.480
best in the world to do what
they do and I guess it helps if

279
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:30.960
you can apply it to yourself trying
to do that. Anyone who played baseball

280
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:33.759
grown up, or hoops or footb
whatever. That's why I think those are

281
00:21:33.799 --> 00:21:37.119
as popular as they are. And
I guess if you didn't, But that's

282
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:40.599
true for the person who is a
zero golfer a dozen own clubs, never

283
00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:45.279
plays golf. Danny, Yeah,
you're a perfect example that watch master or

284
00:21:45.319 --> 00:21:49.599
watch majors, watch the major weekends, enjoy them, maybe don't freak out

285
00:21:49.599 --> 00:21:55.160
about them like we do, but
come to appreciate it for that exact reason,

286
00:21:55.200 --> 00:21:57.720
to watch the best in the world
do something at an incredibly high level.

287
00:21:57.799 --> 00:22:02.920
Do you want to know what my
problem with golf was for the longest

288
00:22:02.960 --> 00:22:11.279
time was the the social gap of
what golf to me at the time represented

289
00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:17.519
and how golf was one of the
latest and took the longest to even begin

290
00:22:17.960 --> 00:22:22.839
to consider any type of inclusivity.
Yeah, that was my issue with it.

291
00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:26.119
And I'm telling you you know,
when I became a fan of the

292
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:29.759
sport or a fan of like,
I started really getting into it, I'm

293
00:22:29.799 --> 00:22:33.640
a Tiger dude, because okay,
now, all right, there seems to

294
00:22:33.680 --> 00:22:40.640
be they broke the seal on maybe
the idea of some balance in the sport.

295
00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:45.960
And that's when I started watching it
because I was fascinated with Tiger.

296
00:22:48.119 --> 00:22:52.160
I was all in and I stuck
with it. As far as Karen,

297
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:59.599
it's certainly elitist compared to other sports. It is, and there's an argument

298
00:22:59.640 --> 00:23:03.319
that, you know, it's not
great for the environmentally. I mean they're

299
00:23:03.359 --> 00:23:07.920
taking massive swaths of land and using
a ton of water and you know that

300
00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:11.640
sort of thing. Yeah, but
you can say that about so many things

301
00:23:11.680 --> 00:23:15.880
other than golf. I mean,
I know what you're saying there, but

302
00:23:15.000 --> 00:23:21.400
like, boy, golf's not the
top thing that's polluting the environment. Well

303
00:23:21.440 --> 00:23:26.319
what's sport? Yeah, is yeah, what sport is worse for the environment.

304
00:23:26.440 --> 00:23:30.519
I mean, I don't know college
with all the flights, you know,

305
00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:33.480
but coach football team flies across the
nation on zach okay, But every

306
00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:40.680
golfer flies on separate private planes.
You know, some of them team up

307
00:23:40.720 --> 00:23:44.799
and share a plane. But golf
shouldn't have to wear that. Well,

308
00:23:44.839 --> 00:23:49.400
it's already has the elitist yeah scarlet
letter that it's wearing. That it's rich

309
00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:55.720
white country club dudes, and yeah, if you are the son of wealthy

310
00:23:56.039 --> 00:23:59.599
country club parents, your odds of
being a pro golfer are way higher.

311
00:23:59.640 --> 00:24:06.480
It's hard to battle from poverty.
That's a dynamic that has discussed a little

312
00:24:06.480 --> 00:24:10.839
bit on that Netflix show as the
country club Kids versus just the good old

313
00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:15.079
boys, the country club kids justin
Thomas George Speth Little Boys Kopka is like,

314
00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:18.160
I'm out of here. I mean, it's an obvious thing to say,

315
00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:23.519
but it's also the like, it's
not a sport that the masses have

316
00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:27.759
access to, where baseball is something
you can play in the street with a

317
00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:32.799
stick and a rock, you know, if stickball or whatever football you need

318
00:24:32.839 --> 00:24:37.799
one ball to be able to participate
in it, whereas historically golf is something

319
00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:41.920
that you've got to have access to
be able to play a real course.

320
00:24:41.000 --> 00:24:44.720
Yeah, it's it used to be. I know, it's probably a lot

321
00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:48.720
different now. And golf tries hard
to be more inclusive and make it easier

322
00:24:48.759 --> 00:24:53.000
with first Tea initiatives and inner city
options, and they or at least they

323
00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:57.160
act like they do. You know, it might just be car footprint talk.

324
00:24:57.319 --> 00:25:00.759
Yeah, but yeah, but I
think about sports too. I mean,

325
00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:02.880
that's why soccer is the most popular
sport in the world because that it's

326
00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:07.039
very base Soccer is because someone's gonna
hear me say this and want to keep

327
00:25:07.599 --> 00:25:11.240
I'm not gonna say soccer is free, and a soccer parent locally is probably

328
00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:15.119
like die. It is so expensive. So yes, any of these,

329
00:25:15.160 --> 00:25:18.319
but as far as just getting in, but you can enjoying the sport.

330
00:25:18.400 --> 00:25:22.599
You need a ball and a buddy. Yeah, and you can be in

331
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:26.480
the favelas of Brazil or the most
poverty stricken area of the world, sure

332
00:25:27.400 --> 00:25:32.160
and use something that is the shape
of a ball and kids out there playing

333
00:25:32.200 --> 00:25:37.720
with something wrapped up a duct tape, right exactly, And then that's what

334
00:25:37.720 --> 00:25:41.640
it's the easiest. Then maybe basketball
is next easiest. You got to find

335
00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:45.480
a goal. You got you can
make one makeshift goal or make a goal.

336
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:49.240
But that's why those just inherently allow
kind of everyone to have a chance.

337
00:25:49.279 --> 00:25:53.759
And think about this too, even
like baseball. I can't remember the

338
00:25:53.799 --> 00:26:00.119
exact year that that the color barrier
was broken in baseball fifty six something like

339
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:08.759
that. When Jackie Robinson played his
first game, baseball realized that the how

340
00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:15.759
dug in they were on racism was
superseded by we are the idea that we

341
00:26:15.799 --> 00:26:22.720
are denying ourselves of millions of possibilities
to have the great you know, the

342
00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:26.200
greatest athletes in the world playing in
our sport. And that's what every sport

343
00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:30.079
ultimately, I think once they want
to showcase their organization as the best.

344
00:26:30.480 --> 00:26:36.920
And if you're excluding African Americans from
your sport, you are you really doing

345
00:26:36.920 --> 00:26:41.119
yourself as you're doing yourself a big
disservice, and that that need to be

346
00:26:41.240 --> 00:26:48.079
the best superseded their need to be
hateful. Its just it's wild to me

347
00:26:48.119 --> 00:26:56.039
that it took golf until nineteen seventy
five. Yes, now granted that was

348
00:26:56.480 --> 00:27:00.039
to play in the Masters, yes, and you are correct, but that

349
00:27:00.160 --> 00:27:03.519
sort of a blend or a mix
of both the things that we're talking about,

350
00:27:03.559 --> 00:27:07.880
because golf is kind of the only
true meritocracy in sport where I can

351
00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:11.839
hand you Danny Bayliss a set of
clubs right now, and you can qualify

352
00:27:11.880 --> 00:27:15.400
for the US Amateur, the US
Open, and ultimately the Masters. You

353
00:27:15.400 --> 00:27:18.039
don't have to know one person in
the world of golf. All you have

354
00:27:18.079 --> 00:27:22.279
to do is pay your entry fee
to a local qualifying event. Whoop,

355
00:27:22.279 --> 00:27:26.839
everybody's a advance to the next thing, whip them and Danny Bayliss can make

356
00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:33.160
it, and almost every other sport
you kind of there's a lot of relationships

357
00:27:33.200 --> 00:27:36.039
and who you know and how to
get in and then I'm being scouted by

358
00:27:36.079 --> 00:27:40.759
this guy and now this guy gave
me a chance. Golf has that power,

359
00:27:40.839 --> 00:27:45.720
but that's offset by the fact that
society doesn't allow Danny Baylis in this

360
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:49.200
scenario to have played golf because of
the color of his skin, right,

361
00:27:49.319 --> 00:27:52.640
you know, or doesn't allow you
access to a course without paying X amount

362
00:27:52.680 --> 00:27:56.640
of dollars. I mean, you
can't even get into the NFL unless you

363
00:27:56.720 --> 00:28:00.680
at least went to some college,
right, is that true? Still?

364
00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:04.039
Jeft Jedi high school? Well,
but you can free I mean there's a

365
00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:08.000
free agency element, but you can't
just I don't know how that works.

366
00:28:08.039 --> 00:28:11.920
Actually, when out of high school
you said I'm not going to college,

367
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:14.720
I want to declare an NFL free
agent. I don't know about that.

368
00:28:14.799 --> 00:28:17.920
I think that works? Or what
if it's just a European Yeah, because

369
00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:21.799
I've been clamboring forever for the Eastern
euro to get in on some defensive line

370
00:28:21.799 --> 00:28:25.920
work. It give be these big
Russian bear Marcus Hunt, Marcus Hunt and

371
00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:30.119
these Lotvians and Lithuanians who dominate the
world's strongest man, but they don't really

372
00:28:30.160 --> 00:28:33.000
have a pipeline to a college.
Yeah, so some something. I hear

373
00:28:33.039 --> 00:28:37.119
what you're saying about it being offset. It is just it. It's sad

374
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:41.920
to me that that golf just had
that stranglehold. They just were not going

375
00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:45.519
to let this out of our grasp. No, knowing good and well that

376
00:28:45.640 --> 00:28:51.680
you have the potential to make you
to have a player in your sport like

377
00:28:51.799 --> 00:28:56.079
tiger, you know that can be
the greatest of all time or consider in

378
00:28:56.119 --> 00:28:59.960
that conversation, and for so many
years, longer than any other sport,

379
00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:03.079
just said no, we're not going
to do it. We're not going to

380
00:29:03.160 --> 00:29:06.319
do it. You know what the
modern version of that is, and it's

381
00:29:06.359 --> 00:29:08.440
pretty weird, and golf doesn't talk
about it, but it's the uh,

382
00:29:08.799 --> 00:29:15.720
Asian and Korean players because LPGA is
sort of dominated by Korean players to the

383
00:29:15.720 --> 00:29:18.839
point we're on the Asian Tour for
the women. You'll look at a leaderboard

384
00:29:18.880 --> 00:29:23.160
and it'll say Lee three, Lee
six. Because there's so many people with

385
00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:26.200
the last name Lee, they put
a number after it to decipher which one

386
00:29:26.240 --> 00:29:30.920
is which. And in America,
that is that hurts LPGA ratings because of

387
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:36.119
as dumb as it is, I
don't know who's who. They're all,

388
00:29:36.440 --> 00:29:42.400
you know, basically racism, and
I think male golf is worried about that.

389
00:29:44.200 --> 00:29:48.359
We say it out loud, you
know, and we and male golfers

390
00:29:48.359 --> 00:29:52.759
seem to celebrate everyone plenty. I
love Dakie Maziyami, one of my picks

391
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:55.960
for the week, and he's one
of your best friends in the one of

392
00:29:55.960 --> 00:30:00.880
my best friends. But we have
an easier time, I guess with men's

393
00:30:00.880 --> 00:30:07.200
golf deciphering between all of our Asian
professionals. But women's golf really is dominated

394
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:10.119
by it, and they have a
hard time. They have a hard time

395
00:30:10.119 --> 00:30:12.920
with that and how to handle it
publicly. I have no idea. Yeah,

396
00:30:11.759 --> 00:30:17.000
yeah, what the hell? That
good? Talk? Thirty four minutes

397
00:30:17.079 --> 00:30:21.960
until lock Mike talk with us?
Thirty four minutes until lock on the one

398
00:30:21.960 --> 00:30:26.319
and done pool. Thirty four minutes. Yeah, who do you have right

399
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:30.960
now? Hi, Dicky Matsuya.
So we have to have one name,

400
00:30:30.160 --> 00:30:33.839
lock it in for our one and
done pool. Twenty bucks. No,

401
00:30:33.839 --> 00:30:36.880
no, no, no, no, this is a lot more than this

402
00:30:37.400 --> 00:30:40.440
is twelve grand season long. I
mean, where are we in the middle

403
00:30:40.480 --> 00:30:45.079
somewhere like two fifty for the season. It costs us. Yeah, okay,

404
00:30:45.680 --> 00:30:48.839
we're worthy of the action. It's
so fun. Oh my god,

405
00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:52.200
that's all we talk about. Yeah, it really truly is all they talk.

406
00:30:52.200 --> 00:30:55.000
You have to pick one name.
The problem is all these live golfers,

407
00:30:55.200 --> 00:30:56.079
you don't ever get a chance to
pick them, but only in the

408
00:30:56.079 --> 00:31:00.559
majors. Now you can pick John
Rahm, you can pick Howka. So

409
00:31:00.720 --> 00:31:03.599
is everyone else going to pick a
live golfer because now you finally can?

410
00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:08.160
Or is it double reverse time you
pivot back? See this is knowing that

411
00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:11.880
I can get Rory at like next
to no per What you're hearing right now

412
00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:17.720
is the handy in the brads.
What you're hearing right now is the conversations

413
00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:22.720
that I walk into when these two
nerds are sitting in here and I have

414
00:31:22.799 --> 00:31:25.920
to go to the bathroom or I
go get a bottle of water and come

415
00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:30.000
back. They wait until I'm gone
and then they start this patter up and

416
00:31:30.039 --> 00:31:34.000
I walk in and I'm always I
always get the defensive feeling like they're talking

417
00:31:34.039 --> 00:31:37.759
about me? What are they saying
about me? Behind my back? And

418
00:31:37.799 --> 00:31:42.119
no, it's Matsuyama rom even more
car. Well, you know that's that's

419
00:31:42.160 --> 00:31:45.319
what I walked into it. And
then I always tell you guys, it's

420
00:31:45.319 --> 00:31:47.839
like, hey, I'm right here. You you can talk about this in

421
00:31:47.880 --> 00:31:49.000
front of me. You don't have
to wait until I We just want to

422
00:31:49.000 --> 00:31:52.759
make you uncomfortable. I'm not uncomfortable. You're doing it on the air right

423
00:31:52.759 --> 00:31:55.839
now, and I'm not uncomfortable.
We're cool. Yeah, we're cool.

424
00:31:55.960 --> 00:31:59.799
Okay, we're cool. Start with
that. I start by fixing that part.

425
00:32:00.359 --> 00:32:01.640
Yeah, I don't think I'm the
one that has to fix it.

426
00:32:02.680 --> 00:32:07.680
Someone said NASCAR is the worst for
the environment. Boy, I think about

427
00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:12.240
it. You know what the answer
is? Formula one? Formula one.

428
00:32:12.519 --> 00:32:15.680
Yeah, because they will go,
oh yeah, we're in Saudi Arabia,

429
00:32:15.839 --> 00:32:19.799
and then we'll be in Austin next
week, and then we're gonna hit Japan

430
00:32:19.880 --> 00:32:23.599
real quick. Then we're gonna take
this whole thing to Montreal, back and

431
00:32:23.640 --> 00:32:30.480
forth. Yes, God's crazy,
just shooting arcs over the earth and thirty

432
00:32:30.519 --> 00:32:34.920
minutes we're gonna do Mike's parlor trick
along with an argument for one of our

433
00:32:35.039 --> 00:32:38.960
DFW sons. But coming up next
second, So we should do a little

434
00:32:38.960 --> 00:32:43.920
bit. Mike and I went to
a fabulous DFW destination yesterday that we need

435
00:32:43.960 --> 00:32:46.599
to tell you about. And we'll
give you the details on the Rashi Rice

436
00:32:46.640 --> 00:32:51.160
thing because it's finally getting some answers. That's next to ninety seven won the Freak
