1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: Sports Radio Final Hour on this Tuesday, Dan and the 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,639 Speaker 1: Danette Stan Patrick Show. I'm glad to have you on board. 4 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:13,119 Speaker 1: One of my favorite writers, right Thompson of ESPN, has 5 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:16,919 Speaker 1: written another book. It's entitled Pappy Land. It's sort of 6 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:21,119 Speaker 1: about Pappy Van Winkle, this high end bourbon, or at 7 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,800 Speaker 1: least it's a bourbon that's highly collectable and if you 8 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: can have a twenty three year aged bottle of Pappy 9 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 1: van Winkle, it might go for three thousand and four 10 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: thousand dollars supply and demand. And so Wright wrote this 11 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:42,199 Speaker 1: book on you know Pappy, the guy who started or 12 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 1: his grandfather started Pappy van Winkle and spends a lot 13 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: of time with him in Kentucky and he'll join its 14 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 1: coming up here in a little bit. It's really about family, 15 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 1: but it has to do with bourbon as well, and 16 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: only right Thompson can sort of weave, you know, this 17 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: storyline through all of this. Yes, he how much of 18 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: pat Van Winkle's like success or, I don't know a 19 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 1: name is marketing versus how great it really is? Well, 20 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: I think it's we want what we can't have, and 21 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: when somebody says, oh, it's really rare to get that. 22 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: Pappy van Winkle doesn't. If you see it in the store, 23 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: it doesn't cost you, you know, probably cost you less 24 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: than one hundred dollars. But if you see it on 25 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: the secondary market, it can go for five thousand dollars. 26 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: It's it's it's wild, it's crazy. And if I did 27 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: a taste test and I said, here's Pappy and then 28 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: here's Buffalo trace or bullet or you might not be 29 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: able to tell the difference between the two. But we 30 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: want what we can't have. Therefore, people want Pappy van Winkle, 31 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: and Pappy van Winkle gets a lot of blame because 32 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: people think he's the one that's price gouging him. He 33 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: hasn't changed his prices at least, I don't think he 34 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: has not much. But that secondary market, if you google 35 00:01:54,840 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: Pappy van Winkle, you're gonna go what for a bottle? Yes, happy, 36 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: he's driving to bends these days. I don't think he's 37 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: in a pickup. I think that's the same way with 38 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: some beer companies. Some of these small craft beer companies, 39 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: they only distribute on the property and you have to 40 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: go to them, and it creates a buzz around them, 41 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: and that's a big deal. On the beer can well, 42 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: spotted Cow, Hetty Topper. Those are two that in the 43 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: last couple of years. Now Hetty Toppers now more readily available. Yeah, 44 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: about seventy years ago in northern Vermont, Hetty Topper was 45 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: only available in the small town and they only sold 46 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,959 Speaker 1: it on the property is Alchemist Brewing, and it became 47 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: a buzz and it is a great beer. But the 48 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: buzz was as good as bigger than the beer. I 49 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: like spotted cal better spotted cow in Wisconsin, and you 50 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: can only get it in Wisconsin. Have you traffed, trafficked 51 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: some spotty traffic some spotted participated in the trafficking of 52 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: spotted Yes I have, Yes, I have. My son went 53 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 1: to Wisconsin and brought back a six pack for me, 54 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: like smoking the bandit. You sent it to make a run, Yes, yes, 55 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 1: midnight run. And then I had a listener who sent 56 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: me some some spotted cow and actually some signs beer 57 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: signs for spotted Cow. I'll be able to put those 58 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: up in my jail cell when I go to prison. 59 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: What are you in for trafficking? Oh? Yeah, what we'd 60 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: be trafficking spotted cow beer What Yeah, spotted cow. That's 61 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: probably not going to play well in the yard. Just 62 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: let you know. I would just stick with trafficking, not 63 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: trafficking spotted cow. Got new odds out for who's going 64 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: to be the favorite for the National Championship. I think everybody, well, no, 65 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: you might be surprised that Clemson is still ahead of 66 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. So it's Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson, Notre Dame, 67 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: Florida with a big win over Georgia. What happened to 68 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: Georgia's defense? And I came away with a whole different 69 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: feeling about Kyle Trask because he hung in there, had 70 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: some big throws in there. That was that was a 71 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: big game for him. B Yu is sixth on the 72 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: list to win the national title. Now, granted, there's a 73 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: long odds Cincinnati, and then it's Texas A and m Oklahoma, Georgia, 74 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State, Oregon's in there, Texas USC is in there, 75 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: but it's basically Arizona or Alabama, Arizona, Alabama, Ohio State, 76 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: and Clemson. Then there's a big drop off between Clemson 77 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: and Notre Dame. Your Heisman favorite is not Mac Jones 78 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: at Alabama, not Trevor Lawrence at Clemson, not Kyle Trask 79 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: at Florida, not Zach Wilson at b YU. It's Justin 80 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: Fields at Ohio State. Right now the odds on favorite 81 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: for the Heisman Trophy. Yeah, is he gonna be able 82 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: to get enough games in? I don't know. I mean, 83 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: not just because his program, but the program. Wisconsin has 84 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 1: to get this game in this weekend against Michigan or 85 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 1: they have no chance to be able to qualifying for 86 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: the Big Ten Championship. Michigan, I guess you want to 87 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: play this game. But Wisconsin has been rested, that's for sure. 88 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: Angry and rested. But you know, you start to look 89 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: at what's happening. You know, you had cancelation in the 90 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: Pac twelve, you got one in the SEC coming up 91 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: this weekend. You don't know if you have another one 92 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: in the Big Ten. I just saw where Ben Roethlisberger 93 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: is right now in the the COVID protocol here, he's 94 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: he's uh, he hasn't tested positive, but I guess it's 95 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: a high risk and it's interaction there. And then I 96 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: think he's got to wait five days before you know 97 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,239 Speaker 1: he's got a test negative this game against the Bengals 98 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: coming up this weekend, as I try to add lib 99 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: my way through that. Yes, it's funny. You know the 100 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: new rules are going to be if they cancel a week, 101 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: then there's no buye week right now, the Steelers have 102 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: to buy What if they were the team that had 103 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: to cancel? I know, and I mentioned this, Just keep 104 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: an eye on this. This is really sneaky. I don't 105 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: know if you know about this, but the NFL owners 106 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: are voting today to approve a COVID nineteen contingency playoff plan. 107 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: Now that's only going to be used if a meaningful 108 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: game is canceled. The plan will throw out the current format, 109 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: replace it with a seated bracket, and expands the total 110 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: number of playoff teams. A source told me this morning, Hey, 111 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: this is being enacted this year. If there's a cancelation, 112 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: this is the future of NFL playoffs. In his opinion, 113 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: he works with the NFL, and he said, this I 114 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 1: think is one of those that we're thinking about it now. 115 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: When they think about it, it feels like we gave 116 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: great thought to it. What's the reaction from the media 117 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: and the fans? And then could we implement this. Now, 118 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: let me go a little bit further here. If a 119 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: team is unable to play all of its regular season games, 120 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: the plan then expands the number of teams that makes 121 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: the playoffs from each conference to seven from seven to eight. 122 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: And also understand baseball expanded and BA expanded all of 123 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: these leagues, they're adding, not subtracting. College football missed a 124 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: golden opportunity this year. In my opinion, they should have 125 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: expanded to eight teams four this year to get some 126 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: money to some of these athletic departments with some of 127 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: these other schools and conferences. Now, each division winner will 128 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: make the playoffs. Four additional teams with the best record 129 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: in their conferences make the playoffs. Ties will be broken. 130 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: They have ten different metrics head to head conference winning 131 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: percentage strength the schedule. Once the playoff teams are decided, 132 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: winning the division ceases to matter. Each conference will seed 133 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: their teams by winning percentage. Then, instead of the normal 134 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: wildcard round, in a first round buy for the top team, 135 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: all eight teams play each other using a bracket format. 136 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: The first ranked team the top seed, will play the 137 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: eighth ranked team, the second team will play the seventh, 138 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: and so on and so on. I think this is 139 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: the future here of NFL playoffs. Yeah, Polling, I keep 140 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: going back to what you've been saying in the past 141 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: month of college football not doing this. Now, it's a 142 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: green light for every league, every professional and college organization 143 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: do whatever they want this year to make money, to 144 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: recoup money. Everybody wants more sports. It's another whiff by 145 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: the NCAA because nobody's in charge. Yeah, that's the problem 146 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: that you know, these are the power of five conferences 147 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: that are running college football. But they just missed a 148 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: great opportunity. In my opinion, I imagine if you've got 149 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: BYU and Cincinnati in there, and you may go all 150 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: nobody wants to see them. Watch those two teams and 151 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: tell me if nobody wants to see them. Cincinnati is 152 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: a good team, good defense. By U has got a 153 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: first round draft pick at quarterback. I just want to 154 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: see these teams get a chance, because that's all you want, 155 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: a chance. And if you have eight teams, okay, alive, 156 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 1: I'm a blows out BYU. Okay, no harm. But if 157 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: you're only going to be playing seven games and you 158 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: had this playoff to maybe play ten games, I'm not 159 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: taxing these kids as much as I would during a 160 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: regular season where they're playing twelve regular season games and 161 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: then we tack on three or four more games. Yeah, 162 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: I'm club. So is this a one time thing because 163 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: you guys are both forest as I remember for like 164 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 1: final four not final eight. Well, i'd like the final four. 165 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: But you know, in this year, under these circumstances, baseball expanded, 166 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: NBA expanded, NFL's talking about expanded college football. I don't 167 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: want it to be left in the dust. I don't 168 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: want it to be a dinosaur here. I wanted to realize, 169 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: all right, we gotta think bigger picture here. Now. Maybe 170 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: that happens when the Power five conferences decide to unite 171 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: and they say this is how we're going to do 172 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: it as we move forward. But do you stick to 173 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: the expansion in all these sports or do you contract back. 174 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: I don't want everybody making the playoffs. I don't want 175 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: sixteen teams make in the NFL playoffs and MLB and 176 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 1: MLB No, I don't want that the NBA. I don't 177 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: want that. Like I wanted to mean something. If you 178 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: make the playoffs, and I think what happens is you 179 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: can have a team that's the best team in the 180 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: regular season, they could get knocked off by a team 181 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: that is struggling, scrapping, scraping their way into the playoffs 182 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: and their playoff ready when they start their opening round. 183 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: And that's that's not fair to the team that was 184 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: best in the regular season. You get hot for four games, 185 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: five games. I don't like that. That's not a true 186 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: test true testament to you know, the greatness of a 187 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 1: team or the regular season. Yes, it also seems unfair 188 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: to a program like BYU, which is probably gonna finish 189 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: undefeated at ten and OZ and they're gonna have no chance, 190 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: very little chance to play for the playoffs. And if 191 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 1: other teams and like the Big ten played a full 192 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: schedule way to play ten eleven games, they have more 193 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: opportunities to lose, the more opportunities for a team like 194 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 1: b Why you to move up? Other news, Sergio Garcia 195 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:02,079 Speaker 1: announced yesterday that he'll miss this Masters. He contracted the coronavirus. 196 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: He felt symptoms over the weekend he was at the 197 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: Houston Open, and as if the course wasn't enough to 198 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: worry about, now, the world's top golfers and their caddies 199 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: are in Augusta with an extra layer of concern and 200 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: everyone's going to be tested and hopefully everybody's safe and 201 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 1: able to compete. But nothing normal about this year's tournament, 202 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 1: And Pauli brought this up this morning. When you think 203 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: about twenty twenty in the world of sports, it's like 204 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: you wake up and you have to walk around with 205 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: your shoes on the wrong feet, Like there's nothing normal, 206 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: there's nothing comfortable about it. We have the Masters in November. 207 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: I mean it's disjointed. Basketball just ended and now it's 208 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: just getting ready to start again. But November, not April. 209 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 1: Sights and sounds, no patrons, there, still the same course, 210 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 1: but it's just about getting through each week, each day, 211 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: and this is every sport. You're just trying to get 212 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: through it. If they can manage, we can focus on 213 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: the golf and enjoy one of the best events in 214 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: all the sports. Whether it's April or November. Augusta still 215 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 1: looks beautiful raining the forecast. I'm curious what happens with 216 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: Bryson Deshambo, because he's going to be hitting some drives 217 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 1: probably four hundred yards. Is that a shorter course in 218 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: comparison to US Open courses. Probably they can't lengthen it 219 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: much more than they already have. And I still maintain 220 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: And this goes back probably seven years ago where his 221 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 1: friends with somebody a titlist, and I said to him, 222 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: I said, do you think that the Masters will ever say, 223 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 1: if you want to play in the Masters, you have 224 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: to have our modifications for a golf ball, because the 225 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: clubs are unbelievable. But the golf ball is changing the sport. 226 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:54,839 Speaker 1: But NASCAR says that when you go to a certain 227 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: track restrictor plates, that's like this is if you go 228 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,080 Speaker 1: to Sonoma, this is the way we race here. And 229 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 1: I think, well, I don't think. I wonder if the 230 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: Masters just said we're gonna put our logo on your 231 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 1: golf ball. It has to pass our specifications, whether it's 232 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: Taylor Made, it's Callaway, it's titleist. Go down the list 233 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: of these golf balls. I'm not saying you go back 234 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: to you know, wooden clubs here or actual woods. You 235 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: know that there's wood in the wood. Yeah, seah, that's right, 236 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: something like that. But I wonder if they just do 237 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: sort of flight restricted where you want to get back 238 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 1: to golfing, not just who's the most powerful player out there. 239 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: Golf is becoming a lot like baseball. It's just it's 240 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: all about power, and you miss the people, the players 241 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: who like you. Look down through the list, there are 242 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: a lot of golfers who never would have won majors, 243 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,079 Speaker 1: but they were great golfers. But it's about power and 244 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: being able to overpower these you know, par fives and 245 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: make them a driver and a nine iron. That's not 246 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: the way the courses were made. And you can't add 247 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: too much to those te boxes. They tried to do 248 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: that on a couple of holes at Augusta, but there's 249 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: certain ones there's no more space. There no more room, 250 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 1: And I just hate to see these golf courses being 251 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: made antiquated. They you know the reason why they were 252 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: set up, how they were set up. You know the 253 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: approach shots are going to change a little bit with power, 254 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: and you know the equipment. But I'd still I'd hate 255 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: to see Augusta, you know, rendered a just another course here. 256 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: And I would grow the rough if you could grow 257 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: the road like you have to penalize long hitters. I 258 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: go back to when they said, well we're gonna tiger 259 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: proof Augusta. What did they do they lengthened it, and 260 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: I went, so, the guy who hits it further than anybody, 261 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: you're gonna lengthen it. That's gonna tiger proof it. You 262 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: don't want to tiger proof it if you had like 263 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: the rough there, so when you miss the fair way, 264 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: you know you were penalized there. So now you've just 265 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: taken twenty more golfers out of this because you tiger 266 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: proofed it. They jack proofed it back in the sixties, 267 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: Jack Nicholas, because Jack was hitting the ball so much 268 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: further than everybody else. Now, what do you do with 269 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: Bryson to Shambo? I don't think you can Bryson proof 270 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: this place. Yeamp. Do you think that the Masters, that 271 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: I should say the TV Partners is at CBS and ESPN. 272 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: Do you think that they'll pump in crowd noises and 273 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: roars for or are they going to go natural what 274 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: they did before? They've pumped in noise at the Masters? Yeah, 275 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: I think so. Yeah, I think they pumped in noise. 276 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: I think didn't somebody call them out and say, wait, 277 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: that's a different kind of bird, that's not cuck cucka. Yeah, 278 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: there are different sound effects there, But I think somebody 279 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: called out Google that todd while you're not doing anything. 280 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: That's actually the piping plover, which is the original to 281 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: the area. Yes, I think that they were called out 282 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: for piping in some noise there. Now they didn't have that. 283 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: Well it is a dog leg left. Yeah, I'm mcglovit. 284 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: I have this story. Is CBS piping fake birds into 285 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: its mess? There's coverage and they talked to a professor 286 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: who says, yes, an ornithology professor. I would love if 287 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: they just had, you know, like Jurassic Park and almost. Yeah. 288 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: CBS said that they admitted they did it into two 289 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: thousand PGA, but they will not admit to, uh, putting 290 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: in fake birds at Augustus. So they used to they 291 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: will not admit or they just said no, we didn't. 292 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: They said we did not, but they admitted that they 293 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: put in fake birds at the two thousand and one 294 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: PGA or two thousand PGA. Recorded bird sounds, what is 295 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: the falco or a green It's more commonly known as 296 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 1: the peregrine falcon. Not unique, they're not indigenous to that area. Therefore, well, 297 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: the migratory patterns in no venom of course, of course, 298 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: of course obvious. Absolutely.

I thought i'd call in and when 376 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: you guys were talking about Pappy Van Winkle. My father 377 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: runs a liquor store and I worked there for several years, 378 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: so I went through many Pappy van Winkle days and 379 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: Bourbon County days and all that thought. After beer, I know, 380 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 1: Hettie Topper is the big one out by you guys. 381 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: We can't get it really out here. But I go 382 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: back to what my boss once told me about like 383 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: allocated beer and how people obsess over what they can. 384 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: Have told me one day he was like, Stephen, if 385 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: you couldn't find crap anywhere and we had crap, people 386 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 1: would be knocking down our doors begging for our crap. 387 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: Thank you, Stephen. We make the smooth segue to right. Thompson, ESPN, 388 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 1: Senior writer. The new book is Pappy Land, a story 389 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: of family, fine bourbon and things that last available beginning 390 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: today online and wherever books are sold, and a reason 391 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,719 Speaker 1: to drink bourbon for the last four years while writing 392 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: this book. Well done, right, Thompson, How are you, buddy? 393 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: I'm doing great man? All right? So the idea is hatched? 394 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: How when? Where? Why? You know? At first it was like, 395 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: maybe if I wrote a book about this guy, I 396 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,120 Speaker 1: could get some of the stuff. But it turns out 397 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: they're like I kept waiting to be shown like the 398 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 1: mystery supply, but it doesn't exist. It's so rare that 399 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,719 Speaker 1: the Van Winkles themselves barely have it. And I just 400 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: started going up there and hanging out with him, and 401 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 1: I wasn't sure what the book was going to be. 402 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: And I'm sure you've experienced this conversations I was having about, 403 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: you know, he was going through a cancer fight. I 404 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: just had our first child, and the conversations we were 405 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,360 Speaker 1: having about his father and my father and the kind 406 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: of parent I wanted to be, those felt as much 407 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 1: of the part of the story of the whiskey as 408 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: the whiskey itself. And so the book was born. It's 409 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 1: a it's sort of a wanding together of the history 410 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: of the fan Winkl brand and of Kentucky bourbon with 411 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: you know, like my wife read it for the first 412 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: time and I was trying to tell her my grand 413 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: literary theory for it, and she was like, oh, you 414 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: wrote Eat, Pray, Love for Dads, And I was like, 415 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: damn it, Like that's not don't tell anyone that it's not. 416 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: You're gonna kill my Any street cred I had is gone. 417 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 1: But it really is an exploration of inheritance and of 418 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: you know, the things that the things we inherit from 419 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,959 Speaker 1: our fathers and the things we want to pass on 420 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: to our children. When did Pappy become something bigger than 421 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: just to bourbon? You know? In nineteen ninety seven it 422 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 1: got this famous ninety nine score and I don't even 423 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: really know how those things are rated, but people went 424 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: nuts for it. And for years Julian van Winkle, who 425 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 1: makes it, had just been going deeper and deeper into 426 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: debt to keep this thing alive. The short story is 427 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: his grandfather, Pappy van Winkle, started to stutzel Weller Distillery, 428 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 1: and then Julian's father lost it, and so Julian had 429 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 1: spent his whole life just hanging on by his fingernails 430 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: in the whiskey business, to the point that this year 431 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,479 Speaker 1: he is finally paying off the last of those loans. 432 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: So twenty twenty one will be the first year in 433 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: the black. Oh well, like that's how long it took. 434 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: And so they got this score, and all of a 435 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: sudden people went crazy for it, and everyone realized what 436 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: a small group of aficionados had always known, which was 437 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: this was the best stuff in a bottle. In the world. 438 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: And now, I mean, as you know, is that guy 439 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 1: was just saying it's almost impossible to find. I mean, 440 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 1: I'm raffling off nine bottles of this week at book events, 441 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: and like people were buying ten. It's the response to 442 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 1: those raffle tickets is pretty astonishing. Also, when you're talking 443 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: to Pappy, people think that he's the one that jacks 444 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 1: up the prices on the secondary market, and he's not. 445 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 1: I don't know what a regular let's say a twenty 446 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: three year aged bottle of Pappy, what would that go for. 447 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 1: What's a regular price for that? And then the secondary 448 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: it should be two hundred and seventy to three hundred dollars, 449 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: And a secondary market is starts at three grand and 450 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 1: just keeps going up. I mean, it's really crazy. And 451 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 1: Julian will tell you, no, Bourbon is three thousand dollars, 452 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, it's like, you know, it's a 453 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 1: it's a stretch at three hundred. So it was pretty 454 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: interesting to be inside that and see them sort of 455 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 1: deal with people who think they're getting rich when they're not. 456 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 1: Why Kentucky, Why is Kentucky the home of bourbon? You know, 457 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 1: American whiskey started. It was rye whiskey New York State, 458 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: and then in Pennsylvania, and then you know, the big 459 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: Alexander Hamilton George Washington fight over the whiskey tax was 460 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: really I mean, the seeds of the twenty twenty election 461 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 1: were planted then. And the whiskey tax was designed by 462 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 1: someone who lived in a city who sort of thought 463 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: it was a syntax. And George Washington understood that making 464 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 1: whiskey was how farmers who lived way out in the 465 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: middle of nowhere kept their crops from rotting. And so 466 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 1: all those people migrated from Pennsylvania down to Kentucky, because 467 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 1: there was a time when Kentucky was the Montana of America. 468 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 1: It was the wild Frontier. And so all of those 469 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: farmers moved from New York to Pennsylvania and then down 470 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 1: to Kentucky. How would you describe that first taste of 471 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: Pappy van Winkle for those who probably will never get 472 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: that opportunity, even when they before the taste and even 473 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: when they pour it in the glass. And I'm not 474 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: one of those wine guys who can, you know, tell 475 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: like I'm not, you know, I don't know how to 476 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: do that. So this is a pretty amateur opinion, and 477 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: but just looking at it going in the glass, the 478 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 1: viscosity of it is different. I mean, I write about 479 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 1: this a lot in Pappy Land, just watching people have it, 480 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? Like the bucket list 481 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 1: aspect of it. You can tell when it's poured that 482 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: it's not the crap you are drinking in college. Can 483 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 1: you take tours of Pappy Land? You can. You can 484 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: go to the Buffalo Trace Distillery. It's actually really cool. 485 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: I would not recommend doing it after a night of 486 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 1: hard drinking. I took a friends bachelor party there one time, 487 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: and you step out of the car man and it 488 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: is overpowering smell of whiskey. But no, the tours are fabulous. 489 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 1: It's the Buffalo Trace Distillery. You sort of come down 490 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 1: a hill. It's like a time machine. I mean, you know, 491 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 1: so much of bourbon and the people who love it 492 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 1: is associated with nostalgia. I read somewhere recently nostalgia comes 493 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 1: from the Greek words for home and pain, and that 494 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: sort of feels perfect when you think about a glass 495 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: of bourbon and remembering your father or you know, a 496 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,439 Speaker 1: toe to people who are no longer here, and you know, 497 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: exploring why bourbon means that thing to us is a 498 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: big part of the book. Is there bourbon snobbery? Did 499 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: you encounter that? You know, it's interesting, there's so much 500 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,679 Speaker 1: bourbon snobbery. And I was sort of making fun of 501 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: him and Julian. I mean, Julian shut me down pretty 502 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: good because he was just like, hey, man, who are 503 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: you to tell somebody how to enjoy something. If the 504 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,679 Speaker 1: thing they like about it is being a purist about it, 505 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: then like live and let live, man. And I learned 506 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 1: from that. Actually, I mean I spent a lot of 507 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: time around Julian, and he's a pre remarkable guy. And 508 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 1: you know, if I have a business decision in the 509 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: future or a family thing, he's somebody I would call 510 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: sort of like a father figure. You know. I lost 511 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 1: my father young, and I think a lot of people 512 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: that that happens to spend a lot of time trying 513 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: to replace that and looking for people who serve that 514 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: role in their lives. And so, you know, very early on, 515 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: I knew I didn't just want to write the history 516 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: of Van Winkle. I wanted to write about the four 517 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: years I spent with Julian because of that very reason 518 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: because the most interesting parts to me were just riding 519 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: shotgun with him and hearing how he thought about things. Yeah, 520 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: it presents itself is it's about bourbon, but it's not 521 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: about bourbons. It's about lives. It's about families, it's about fathers, 522 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: it's about sharing a moment. There you have thoroughbred racing 523 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: that's also intertwined in this as well. So there's you know, 524 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 1: it's typical, right Thompson, that you got different layers going on, 525 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: and I really enjoyed it was a quick read, an 526 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 1: easy read, a great read. It's called Pappy Land, the 527 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: story of family, find Bourbon and things that last available 528 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 1: beginning to day, both online and wherever books are sold. 529 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: Are you going to the Masters? You know? I was 530 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: going to the Masters, and then I had a two 531 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: week early daughter Friday, So I am no longer going 532 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: to the Masters. I am instead dealing with the utter 533 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: chaos in my house of the arriv of Louise Thompson. 534 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: So you got two under the age at two, two 535 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: under the age of three, So I need to Pappy 536 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: van Winkle. Your wife might have needed that a childbirth, yea, 537 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: instead of those jello cubes, you would have just had 538 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: bourbon cues. That's what I really I dropped the ball 539 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,959 Speaker 1: on that dan And you know, it's gonna be so 540 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: strange with no patrons there and the Masters in November. 541 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: It's still gonna look the same, probably sound the same 542 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 1: to a certain degree, except for the patrons. But I 543 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: was surprised they didn't try to incorporate any kind of 544 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: group there or give people an opportunity. You never get 545 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: a chance to go there. I think there's nobody gonna 546 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 1: be there. That ambiance is really what separates it from 547 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 1: every other tournament. It's gonna be really strange. You know, 548 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: ESPN had the the I'm sure you know Tim Horgan 549 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: and Blue Foot, but like the guys who do all 550 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: those bumps and teases, they were just there a week 551 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 1: ago and I was sort of expecting the place to 552 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: look different because it was fall. And he called the 553 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: first day, was like, this is so weird. I don't 554 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: know what they've done. These guys are miracle workers. The 555 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: course looks exactly like it would look in April. I 556 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: mean like these guys like seasons, have no dominion over 557 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: whoever's running that golf course. It's pretty remarkable. We had 558 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 1: a contest that was, well, you had a contest that 559 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: you incorporated our show, and you invited our listeners to 560 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 1: write who they would have, Well, give us the context 561 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: of it, and then if you want to paraphrase the 562 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: winning letter. Yeah, man, we were talking a couple of 563 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: months ago and just sort of said, look, tell me 564 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: who you would drink a bottle of pappy with and why, 565 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: because I feel like that question gets at the heart 566 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: of what the book is about, which is about community 567 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: and friendship and loss and regret and longing and home. 568 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: And I don't know, man, you do these things and 569 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: you expected to get a couple of them. And I 570 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: mean one of the things. I mean, you know this 571 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 1: very well, and Todd knows this, but the people listen 572 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: to your show, it's a real community people, and they're loyal, 573 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: they love it. And I certainly didn't realize that until 574 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 1: these results. These letters started pouring in, and like my 575 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: wife and I would sit there and read them, and 576 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: everyone was more moving than the one that came before, 577 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't know how I'm gonna pick, 578 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 1: And ultimately I got one today as the Marine Corps Birthday, 579 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: which is a big deal in the Marine Corps and 580 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: I got a letter from a I don't want to 581 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: call him a former marine because they get really upset 582 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: about that. But like I've done that in print, and 583 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: you will only do that once because the emails started 584 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: flooding in and so, but he is a retire he 585 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: I don't know what he's not a Marine Corps officer, 586 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 1: he's not active, correct. But he told me that his 587 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: name is Ted Hubbard. And he told me that he 588 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: wanted to drink a bottle of pappy with the father 589 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: of one of his marines who was killed in Afghanistan. 590 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: And he sent me this picture of he and three 591 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: of his marines, including Seth Sharpe who was killed in action, 592 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: as they're leaving on the mission from which Seth wouldn't return. 593 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 1: I mean, makes the hair stand up of my arms. 594 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: And he said he wanted to drink this bottle with 595 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: seth father Rick, and I just thought that, like that instinct, 596 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 1: an impulse, flows through the very heart of everything the 597 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: book is trying to be, and so we sent him 598 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 1: a bottle. He's got it right now and I sort 599 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: of feel like, I mean jokes aside, man, anything else 600 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: that happens from this is gravy like to be able 601 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: to send one of these things and have it serve 602 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: its true purpose. I mean, Julian is over the moon 603 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: at it because as opposed to someone collecting it and 604 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: getting dust in a cabinet like a trophy, this is 605 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: going to be someone you know, using it for its 606 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 1: purpose in the world. And it's just It really does 607 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: say something about the community of people on the show, 608 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 1: because I was stunned at the response. I mean a 609 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: lot of people, like I don't know how many people 610 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 1: listen to this, Dan, but it's a lot. Because I 611 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 1: was stunned at the response. Yeah, I'd keep getting these 612 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: updates from right, He'd be like, they're not stopping, Like 613 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 1: we're getting more letters. Oh, it's so hard to pick 614 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: a winner, and and I went great. I was glad 615 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: that my audience responded to something that I thought was 616 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: really important. Next sports story you're working on. I have 617 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 1: an Archie Manning profile coming out on ESPN that I 618 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: feel like is for someone who's been written about as 619 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: much as Archie Manning. I feel like this is probably 620 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 1: eight thousand new words about Archie Manning. So I'm pretty 621 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: excited about that.

They are in 642 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:46,399 Speaker 1: their twenties, so is everybody out of the house. They 643 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: never leave. They never leave. Yes, that's good and bad. 644 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: I like the idea of like, we have a little 645 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 1: kid running around here talking about her babyhista and it's 646 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: the cool, like I'm over the moon. Well, I got 647 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,360 Speaker 1: a twenty two year old who said, I said, what 648 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 1: are you gonna do when you graduate from school? And 649 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 1: she said, I'm thinking of staying at home, living at 650 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:08,680 Speaker 1: home to him thirty and I think I said, okay, 651 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 1: like I I don't. I love having him home. And 652 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: girls are the best. And the advice I always give 653 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 1: to people is listen. If you're a dad, listen to 654 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: your daughters. You don't have to lecture.

You've got two more, at least 744 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 1: two more coming in. It will probably start right away, 745 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: and then you are probably gonna get four first round 746 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 1: drafted quarterbacks. Yinstman Club. Even the guys everyone thought was 747 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 1: probably going to be about, like Justin Herbert is ready already. 748 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 1: Everyone's like, oh, he's a raw product. Josh Allen, Everyone's 749 00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 1: like he's a raw product and they're ready immediately. It's weird. 750 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, How did I have such a high opinion 751 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: of Josh Rosen? Oh? Everybody did. He won't number ten overall. Yeah, 752 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 1: I know. It felt like he was more prepared for 753 00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 1: the NFL than Josh Allen was with Buffalo. But and 754 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,240 Speaker 1: Josh Allen is is still work in progress. But man, 755 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 1: the ceiling he has is a pretty high ceiling. It's 756 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 1: just I think he's still learning to play the position. Yeah, McLellan, 757 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 1: It's is true. Josh Rosen was smart smart, but maybe 758 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 1: football smart and book smart are not the same thing. Yeah, 759 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 1: any rubbed people the wrong way, I think with his personality. 760 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: This Dame and Sports History Poll nineteen twenty eight, New Rockney, 761 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:25,319 Speaker 1: the head coach and Notre Dame did his win one 762 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,839 Speaker 1: for the Gipper speech at halftime of a tide game 763 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 1: between Notre Dame and Army.
