Speaker 2: Welcome back to Quiet Please.
Speaker 3: Kira here.
Speaker 4: Mel here.
Speaker 3: And we are living in a world, Mel, where Prince
Speaker 3: Harry and Meghan Markle are going back to the UK. Thoughts?
Speaker 3: Immediate reactions?
Speaker 2: Well, listen, I'm trying to give them the benefit of
Speaker 2: the doubt. I'm a big Harry fan. Well, was a
Speaker 2: very big Harry fan growing up. Big royal family fan. Ugh.
Speaker 2: It's a bit of a brave move though, isn't it, K-Dog?
Speaker 2: You can't just slag your family off the way they
Speaker 2: did and then come back and grovel. I don't know
Speaker 2: how they're going to do that, but tail between their legs.
Speaker 2: I don't think, from my understanding of what I'm reading
Speaker 2: in the press, is I don't think the British nation,
Speaker 2: the people of Britain, are exactly ecstatic about the news.
Speaker 3: It's just a whole bunch of drama, huh?
Speaker 2: Why is it moving back? I think they love to
Speaker 2: hate it. Why are they moving back? Is it because
Speaker 2: they've just run?
Speaker 3: Well, the stuff that I've read, and obviously this is
Speaker 3: all who knows, is that the king's health and Harry
Speaker 3: doesn't want to have missed the last years of King
Speaker 3: Charles's healthy time to spend with his grandchildren.
Speaker 2: But I don't know. It's a bit weird, is it?
Speaker 2: Families are weird though, aren't they?
Speaker 3: Especially that family.
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 3: I know. But it would be really sad to have
Speaker 3: like your immediate only sibling and you're not in a
Speaker 3: good place with them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. I know.
Speaker 3: No, I agree.
Speaker 4: I hope that they can come to a place of.
Speaker 3: Being happy.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, me too. But I think it's just an interesting move.
Speaker 2: I mean, I, I, I don't know. We'll see how
Speaker 2: it goes. I think that I do also think like
Speaker 2: the British press are not going to do this, but
Speaker 2: I do think they need to just like let the
Speaker 2: dust settle a little bit and just see if they're
Speaker 2: going to try and rekindle the family. I know. And
Speaker 2: that's why we love it. I know.
Speaker 3: Kate, Kate is probably like, Oh, Megan's going to be
Speaker 3: showing up.
Speaker 4: At everything now.
Speaker 5: No, I know.
Speaker 3: It was going so well.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 3: People are giving me standing ovations wherever I'm going in hell.
Speaker 2: This girl's back. I know. I mean, the thing is, though, like,
Speaker 2: Kate's number one in show. Kate's, like, the people's princess, really.
Speaker 2: And I shouldn't be saying that because of Diana, but
Speaker 2: she is the people's princess.
Speaker 3: Well, Kate's not trying to be famous. No, she's... Megan, like, clearly,
Speaker 3: when they came back here, she was trying to be
Speaker 3: this generation's Martha Stewart.
Speaker 5: And, uh..
Speaker 4: Then there's all these reports about her wanting to get
Speaker 4: back into acting.
Speaker 2: Which is great.
Speaker 3: Yeah. But I don't know. Just..
Speaker 2: I don't know. Yeah, I think when she'd been in
Speaker 2: a skit of South Park, I mean, you know, it's
Speaker 2: not a great look, is it? Have you ever seen
Speaker 2: that skit that they were in South Park? Have you
Speaker 2: ever seen clips of it? Yeah, it's quite funny. It's like,
Speaker 2: I don't want to be famous. And then it's like,
Speaker 2: you know, I want to be private. And then they're
Speaker 2: going on all these shows and stuff. It's quite funny.
Speaker 2: So I think that if I was them, I would
Speaker 2: play it very quietly for the next... Not that I'm
Speaker 2: great at advice and stuff like this, but I would
Speaker 2: just play it quietly for the next few months and
Speaker 2: just let the dust settle and try and change the
Speaker 2: people's image a little bit if they can. But it's, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's going to be a tough mountain to climb, I'm afraid.
Speaker 2: You just can't sag off your family like that. I
Speaker 2: just don't like it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, not in that big public forum. I feel like
Speaker 3: the book, did you read Harry's books?
Speaker 2: I did. I did read it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, same.
Speaker 3: Love that.
Speaker 4: Maybe he'll come out with another book.
Speaker 2: I know. I can't remember any of it, but I
Speaker 2: did read it.
Speaker 3: I remember a lot of it. There's a quote in
Speaker 3: the book where Charles says, please, boys, don't make my
Speaker 3: final years a nightmare or something like that. I don't
Speaker 3: remember the exact thing, but that's got to be playing
Speaker 3: in the minds.
Speaker 2: It would be weird growing up in the royal family, though,
Speaker 2: wouldn't it? Yeah, but it would be so cool. Well,
Speaker 2: for you. Imagine the glitter. Oh, my God. Well, you
Speaker 2: would thrive. And the dresses. I would hate it. I
Speaker 2: would absolutely hate it. Getting dressed up all the time,
Speaker 2: going to functions that you don't want to be at. Like,
Speaker 2: no thanks. And like, you have to put on a
Speaker 2: face all the time. Like, no, thank you. Just want
Speaker 2: to chill and watch Netflix sometimes. You just can't really
Speaker 2: do that. And you're forced into things, aren't you? Like
Speaker 2: you're forced into that identity a little bit. Totally.
Speaker 3: And you're born into it. So you don't even have
Speaker 3: a choice. I mean, I guess you do have a choice,
Speaker 3: but the choice comes with a lot of strings attached.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Anyway, I thought that it was really important to start
Speaker 3: with that breaking news.
Speaker 2: It was. I know. I know.
Speaker 3: I'm not.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Listen, I mean, you know my opinion on them. It's
Speaker 2: such a shame because Harry's such a lad. But yeah,
Speaker 2: I just, I do struggle with Meghan. I do struggle
Speaker 2: with Meghan a little bit. So I'm just quite curious
Speaker 2: how the Brits will take it. I don't think they're
Speaker 2: going to take it well. We're not the most forgiving
Speaker 2: of nation. And, you know, we're not exactly the most welcoming. And,
Speaker 2: you know, if you piss us off, we kind of,
Speaker 2: that's it really. Bridges are burnt. That's it.
Speaker 4: You're on my list forever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 5: Exactly.
Speaker 2: Exactly. How's life otherwise? How's Banksy boy? Banksy boy is good.
Speaker 2: He is good. Kai's great. We took Kai to the
Speaker 2: cinema for the first time yesterday.
Speaker 3: I saw that.
Speaker 2: I went to see Paw Patrol. He was obsessed. He
Speaker 2: was so cute. It's quite funny, actually, because I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'm such an asshole. So I'm one of them parents
Speaker 2: that are like, never going to Disney. Like I hate Disney.
Speaker 2: It's just not for me. I'm just, it's just hell
Speaker 2: for me. And like just things like that. I just hell.
Speaker 2: But then I saw his face yesterday at the cinema
Speaker 2: and how happy he was that I'm just like, fuck.
Speaker 2: If he ever does ask me. She's going to Disney baby.
Speaker 4: She is going to, you would enjoy it.
Speaker 2: No, I hate it.
Speaker 4: I think a kid, no.
Speaker 2: I would hate it.
Speaker 3: I think a kid, a kid of the right age,
Speaker 3: like you can't bring Kai and infant banks.
Speaker 2: No, no. You'd have to just bring Kai.
Speaker 3: And you could hit all those great rides and he would,
Speaker 3: he would thrive.
Speaker 4: You don't have to be a weird Disney family.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: But so with Disney though, can you not remember the
Speaker 2: first time? Well, the only time I ever went was
Speaker 2: for Carly and her family. And we went to Harry
Speaker 2: Potter land, which actually is, it is cool.
Speaker 4: That is not Disney.
Speaker 2: Okay. Well, whatever. It's a completely different park, completely different universe. Whatever. Anyway,
Speaker 2: everyone is the same.
Speaker 4: It's not the same.
Speaker 3: They're both magical, but different objects.
Speaker 2: And everyone thought I was putting on my accent at
Speaker 2: Harry Potter Land and just kept talking to me in
Speaker 2: a British accent. And I was like, can you just
Speaker 2: piss off?
Speaker 3: I'm not that weird of a fan that I'm making
Speaker 3: up my accent.
Speaker 2: And I almost like had ones and going, and I
Speaker 2: was like, this is too much. There we go. You
Speaker 2: know what? You would have been a good Hermione. I, dude.
Speaker 4: I know.
Speaker 3: You would have been fabulous. My entire personality.
Speaker 2: No, literally.
Speaker 3: My entire personality in this world is based on three
Speaker 3: characters in life. Okay.
Speaker 5: Okay.
Speaker 2: Hermione Granger.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Elle Woods from Lingley Bond.
Speaker 2: Obviously.
Speaker 3: And Gracie Lou Freebush from Miss Congeniality.
Speaker 2: Brilliant. Okay. Just brilliant.
Speaker 3: Those three movies, those three characters have formed who you
Speaker 3: know today to be Keira K.
Speaker 6: Dixon.
Speaker 2: Amazing. Honestly, you would have smashed that.
Speaker 3: I know. If they ever have an American version and
Speaker 3: they're casting 35-year-olds... Please hit me up. Like Hermione in
Speaker 3: her next era.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Okay, we'll look out for that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess they could just cast Emma Watson, but whatever.
Speaker 2: She doesn't want to do it, though. She's over it.
Speaker 2: She's over it. She doesn't want that to be our
Speaker 2: identity anymore, whereas we want that to be your identity.
Speaker 2: It is my identity. Apologies. Correction. So anyway, I'll probably
Speaker 2: be going to Disney in about seven or eight years. No, sooner. No.
Speaker 6: No.
Speaker 3: No, because he'll be, you've got to get him at
Speaker 3: like six or seven years old.
Speaker 2: That is enough from you, okay? That is enough.
Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm just telling you how it is. I'm not
Speaker 3: here to sugarcoat things.
Speaker 2: Well, I better start bloody saving because I'll tell you what,
Speaker 2: have you been to the cinema recently? Fucking hell. I
Speaker 2: better start bloody saving.
Speaker 4: You're so British.
Speaker 2: Have you been to the cinema recently?
Speaker 4: Oh my God.
Speaker 3: It's expensive, yeah.
Speaker 2: I was like, no.
Speaker 7: Okay.
Speaker 2: So I, I really try and not show emotion sometimes.
Speaker 2: Like I'm trying to be better at not, not reacting
Speaker 2: some bit, obviously it's a bit sleep surprise. I'm trying
Speaker 2: not to react. It's like a thing. It's like, um, whatever,
Speaker 2: $ 10 ticket. That's fine. I expect that, especially for Paw Patrol.
Speaker 3: Like, you know, $ 10 is not crazy.
Speaker 2: It's not crazy. It's not great. It's not crazy. Um,
Speaker 2: so then we went and we got one medium popcorn. Okay,
Speaker 2: one kids combo, which is very small popcorn and literally
Speaker 2: three fruit sack things, like little, just three gummy bears, basically.
Speaker 2: A water, and Kai got water. And we got some
Speaker 2: milk duds and some M & Ms. How much do
Speaker 2: you reckon that was? 50 bucks. Literally $ 35.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 2: That's insane. That is insane.
Speaker 4: I don't know, maybe living in San Francisco is just..
Speaker 3: Conditioned me to think that things like that are not
Speaker 3: that big of a, like, that's not insane.
Speaker 2: That is.
Speaker 7: But it is insane it's objectively insane like i do
Speaker 7: not remember going to like the cinema on a Friday
Speaker 7: night with your mates and it was like it was
Speaker 7: like seven dollars for everything like a ticket popcorn milkshake.
Speaker 2: And some sweets you know i mean yeah The world's
Speaker 2: got mad, Kira. So anyway, so it cost me $ 70.
Speaker 2: And then Carly got upset with me. So I was
Speaker 2: bitching about it for the first 10 minutes. And she
Speaker 2: was like, well, you just shut up. Like he's, look
Speaker 2: at him. He's loving it. He's happy. Yeah.
Speaker 3: With every penny.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And I, she's like, you know, so I got
Speaker 2: bollocking for that. So.
Speaker 4: Where was Banks during this time? Did Banks go to
Speaker 4: Paw Patrol?
Speaker 2: Yeah. He just slept on Carly. Really?
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I know. That's amazing. He just put some things on him.
Speaker 2: So he just can hang there and then. he's got
Speaker 2: a bit of a cold that's actually kind of brilliant
Speaker 2: yeah so we just put him strapped him to her
Speaker 2: and then just put some headphones on the cold dark
Speaker 2: room yeah it's amazing he loved it he loved it
Speaker 2: yeah he wanted the boo for the last 10 minutes
Speaker 2: and that was.
Speaker 4: It worth the 70 bucks well we did.
Speaker 2: Get the reclining seats as well so that was that
Speaker 2: is an absolute must for a kids film for a
Speaker 2: kids film it's a must I did a lot of
Speaker 2: online shopping during Paw Patrol.
Speaker 3: It was great I was like mummy focus I know
Speaker 3: I know How about you?
Speaker 2: How was your weekend?
Speaker 3: I was working. Oh, shit.
Speaker 2: Of course you were. How was it?
Speaker 3: You know, I would say working a PGA Tour event
Speaker 3: for a week in the heat at 32 weeks pregnant
Speaker 3: is not for the week.
Speaker 2: But I did it.
Speaker 3: I'm proud of myself.
Speaker 2: You did it. Can I also say the content of
Speaker 2: you eating stuff, like Sonic. First of all, I love it.
Speaker 2: I think Carly loves it even more because that is
Speaker 2: her spirit animal. is just Carly loves fast food content.
Speaker 3: Well, I, that was, um, I think it was a Friday.
Speaker 4: I was so tired and all, and it was really
Speaker 4: hot and humid that day.
Speaker 3: And I'm, I think I've said it on the podcast
Speaker 3: that I've really been obsessed with cold fruity drinks. And
Speaker 3: I have been a watermelon slush from Sonic girly since
Speaker 3: I was a kid. And I just, all of a
Speaker 3: sudden the idea popped in my head or no, I
Speaker 3: had driven past a Sonic and I was like, Oh
Speaker 3: my gosh, And I've just been thinking about it and
Speaker 3: obsessing over it. So finally that Friday after I was
Speaker 3: finished with work, I was like, I'm going to get
Speaker 3: myself a watermelon slush. But I don't really like any
Speaker 3: of the other food at Sonic except for their mozzarella sticks.
Speaker 2: So I was like, okay, perfect.
Speaker 3: I'll get a watermelon slush and a small mozzarella stick
Speaker 3: just to like tide me over. And then I'll go
Speaker 3: across the street to Chick-fil-A and I'll get my eight
Speaker 3: count nugget that I drench in buffalo sauce. So it's
Speaker 3: like my little buffalo wings and dip them in ranch,
Speaker 3: get a side of pickles and a mac and cheese.
Speaker 4: I mean, that's like a balanced meal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's pretty good. That's a good effort.
Speaker 3: Especially because we can't eat like lettuce and blueberries anymore
Speaker 3: because everything has salmonella and E. coli and everything is
Speaker 3: going to give you explosive diarrhea. So I can't be
Speaker 3: having that as a pregnant lady. So it's, you know
Speaker 3: what's never going to give me explosive diarrhea? An eight
Speaker 3: count nugget.
Speaker 2: No, it's not.
Speaker 3: Or it better not.
Speaker 2: No, it just won't. It just won't.
Speaker 3: It's just, yeah. If anything, it's making my stomach stronger.
Speaker 3: So that was great. So I posted that video. And then,
Speaker 3: of course, the people of St. Louis were just like, oh,
Speaker 3: my gosh, there's all these amazing local places that are
Speaker 3: not fast food chains that you should go to. So
Speaker 3: I ended up going to this place called Ted Drew's,
Speaker 3: which is an ice cream custard.
Speaker 2: Have you ever had a custard ice cream?
Speaker 3: No. It's like really fine.
Speaker 4: Thick.
Speaker 2: It must be thick.
Speaker 3: Oh, my God. I was like, okay, I'll go and
Speaker 3: just try it. I'll have a couple bites of it.
Speaker 3: And that's enough for me. I slammed this thing. It
Speaker 3: was the top three best cold things I've ever put
Speaker 3: in my mouth. It was so fantastic.
Speaker 2: Wow. So shout out to Andrews.
Speaker 3: And then the other place I went was called the
Speaker 3: High Point Drive-In. Do you know what a chopped cheese is?
Speaker 3: Have you ever had a chopped cheese?
Speaker 5: Nope.
Speaker 2: No clue what you're talking about.
Speaker 3: It's a very New York bodega thing. So it's basically
Speaker 3: like ground beef or like a hamburger patty that's been
Speaker 3: chopped up really fine. And then they melt American cheese
Speaker 3: over that. So it's like a Philly cheese steak. Or
Speaker 3: it doesn't have to be American cheese, but like, you know,
Speaker 3: the type of cheese that you would put on a
Speaker 3: Philly cheese steak. So instead of sliced steak, it's hamburger
Speaker 3: patty meat, basically. And then they put that in a hoagie,
Speaker 3: like a Subway type of thing.
Speaker 2: Stop doing this.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 3: It's a long piece of bread. Oh my God.
Speaker 2: Okay. Just letting you know.
Speaker 6: Okay.
Speaker 3: Whatever. It was delicious.
Speaker 2: I'm sure it was. It sounds great. Sounds good. So
Speaker 2: basically your highlight was food this week.
Speaker 3: I had to make it my highlight. I just needed
Speaker 3: some extra morale.
Speaker 2: Good for you. Also, I had a toasted ravioli.
Speaker 4: You know, St.
Speaker 2: Louis, who knew?
Speaker 3: No, St.
Speaker 2: Louis is good for food. All the food shows I watch, St.
Speaker 2: Louis is bomb for food.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I didn't know that it was such a culinary destination.
Speaker 3: So I'm sorry I haven't put more respect on your name.
Speaker 3: So on any of the listeners in St. Louis, I
Speaker 3: see you and I hear you.
Speaker 4: But the golf was cool.
Speaker 3: So should we, I guess, talk about the golf?
Speaker 2: I mean, we probably should.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of it. There's actually, we have sneaky
Speaker 3: a lot to talk about this week. Okay. So, um,
Speaker 3: that was the second playoff event, the BMW championship. So
Speaker 3: the top 50 and the FedEx cup standings made it
Speaker 3: to the BMW championship and making it to the top
Speaker 3: 50 is a big deal on the PGA tour because
Speaker 3: it means that you've qualified into all the signature events
Speaker 3: next season.
Speaker 4: Like your status is set.
Speaker 3: You're good. So even if you don't make it to
Speaker 3: the tour championship, it's really like you really want to
Speaker 3: make the top 50 and then the the people that
Speaker 3: make it to the tour championship, then they have the
Speaker 3: opportunity to play for a $ 40 million purse and you're
Speaker 3: in all the majors and there's some extra bonuses and stuff,
Speaker 3: but it's not as consequential to like being able to
Speaker 3: control your season the following year. Um, Wyndham Clark was
Speaker 3: our winner. We thought we were going to have a
Speaker 3: real battle between Wyndham and Rory coming down the stretch.
Speaker 3: They were tied. It was like, okay, is this a
Speaker 3: Ryder cup situation actually turned into a really cool golf tournament.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it did. Did you watch any of it? I
Speaker 2: did watch it. So, yeah, Wyndham had a five-shot lead,
Speaker 2: I think, going into Sunday, from what I can recall. Yeah.
Speaker 2: And then all tied up and then just birdied the
Speaker 2: last three to clinch it. Yeah. Listen, you've got to
Speaker 2: give it to Wyndham, haven't you? Like, he is a
Speaker 2: resilient little bugger.
Speaker 3: Well, people were still yelling, get in the bunker, all day.
Speaker 4: He was getting so much stick.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: I know. And honestly, like, that's his third win this year.
Speaker 2: He's up for Player of the Year. For sure.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I wanted to ask you about this. Between
Speaker 4: him and Scotty.
Speaker 3: And I guess Matt Fitzpatrick, who would be your player
Speaker 3: of the year?
Speaker 2: Okay, so this is the problem that I have with
Speaker 2: player of the year, is that I think, well, this
Speaker 2: is my opinion.
Speaker 3: The players vote on this too, so that people have
Speaker 3: the context. So you as a player, I'm interested in
Speaker 3: what you would vote for.
Speaker 2: It's a really difficult one, because I think, Scotty, even
Speaker 2: though he's probably not notched up as many wins as
Speaker 2: he would have liked, he's still had a phenomenal season.
Speaker 2: Matt Fitzpatrick has had the best season of his career
Speaker 2: with three wins and eight top tens or something ridiculous.
Speaker 2: And then you've got Wyndham, who has won the US
Speaker 2: Open and then won two other times. He's won big
Speaker 2: events as well. And so, I don't know. I feel...
Speaker 2: I'm just going to put it out there. Like my
Speaker 2: heart is saying Max Fitzpatrick because I just, he's British, right?
Speaker 2: So I'm trying to take that aside now. You can't
Speaker 2: vote for him because he's British. I know. So I'm
Speaker 2: moving that aside. I'm being honest. I'm being honest. Okay,
Speaker 2: so move that aside.
Speaker 3: Tommy Fleet was probably sitting there, well, I got to
Speaker 3: vote for the lad, don't I? Exactly.
Speaker 2: I've got to vote for my mate. Honestly, I'm going
Speaker 2: to give it to Wyndham. And I'll tell you why,
Speaker 2: because as we just spoke about, the absolute shit he
Speaker 2: has to deal with week in and week out of,
Speaker 2: Just the heckling. And like, I think like he's now
Speaker 2: kind of become a little bit of the villain on the,
Speaker 2: like he's definitely not as much villainy as like a
Speaker 2: Patrick Reed or something like that. But for some reason,
Speaker 2: the fans just haven't warmed to him. They've got a
Speaker 2: little bit better, I think, since the US Open. There
Speaker 2: are reasons. I know there's reasons, but I don't know.
Speaker 2: I still like, I don't know. I don't know. He
Speaker 2: doesn't help himself. I know that. But I think that
Speaker 2: the way that he does come through after all that resilience,
Speaker 2: you've got to hand it to him. Whether you like
Speaker 2: the guy or not, you've got to hand it to him.
Speaker 3: He would be my player of the year as well. Actually,
Speaker 3: you know who would be my player of the year,
Speaker 3: setting all this aside, is Gary Woodland.
Speaker 2: I know, I know. His interview with Amanda was amazing
Speaker 2: as well. Every interview is just so... He must be exhausted.
Speaker 2: Every interview he does is just so moving and like...
Speaker 2: The fact that he.
Speaker 3: Keeps putting himself out there where most people... Anybody that
Speaker 3: has PTSD, that's not something that.
Speaker 4: You just can function through normally. It is constantly there.
Speaker 3: It is constantly something you have to be thinking about managing, whatever,
Speaker 3: and that manifests itself in so many different ways. So
Speaker 3: for the guy to not only show up but play
Speaker 3: lights out and contend to win on the PGA Tour
Speaker 3: and also have won earlier this season, I just– And make.
Speaker 2: The tour championship. And make it to the tour championship. Yeah, exactly. Exactly.
Speaker 3: It's beyond, like, I don't think that anyone will ever
Speaker 3: truly understand what it's taken for him to do that. Like,
Speaker 3: it's so, so beyond any accomplishment that like Wyndham or
Speaker 3: Scottie whoever could ever probably imagine for themselves. Yeah.
Speaker 4: As far as that goes, he would be the heart's pick.
Speaker 2: Well, let's do that then. Let's say, me and you,
Speaker 2: let's say Gary Woodland because at the end of the day,
Speaker 2: we're talking about resilience. That, I'm sorry, overshadows anything that
Speaker 2: the rest of the guys have done.
Speaker 3: I mean, that overshadows somebody yelling, get in the bunker
Speaker 3: to Wyndham.
Speaker 6: Exactly, exactly.
Speaker 3: So like, yeah, cry about it.
Speaker 2: Right, so we vote Gary Woodland.
Speaker 3: We vote Gary Woodland. But in reality, I would probably
Speaker 3: agree on the Wyndham front because winning a major and
Speaker 3: a playoff event Um, and then that third event as well,
Speaker 3: I think it was the Charles Schwab or colonial.
Speaker 2: Wasn't it the CJ cup.
Speaker 4: Whatever, something in Texas. He wants something in Texas.
Speaker 2: Uh, okay.
Speaker 3: So a few funny things from the week, um, Windham
Speaker 3: yesterday before his final round, he is walking out to
Speaker 3: go to the first tee and I'm sitting in the
Speaker 3: interview tent for the early golf channel coverage.
Speaker 4: Amanda comes in because she's about to take over for CBS. And,
Speaker 4: you know, we've been talking about the.
Speaker 3: Baby all week and blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 4: And at that moment, the baby was really kicking. And
Speaker 4: she was like, oh, my God, I want to feel it.
Speaker 3: So she put both her hands on my stomach, crouched
Speaker 3: down and was yelling at my stomach. I'm Auntie Mandy.
Speaker 3: You are going to love me. I'm picking you up
Speaker 3: from parties that you're not allowed to. I will always
Speaker 3: say like, you know, she's like doing this. We're having
Speaker 3: like a funny moment. And at that exact moment, Wyndham
Speaker 3: walks by and sees Amanda crouched down, two hands on
Speaker 3: my stomach, screaming at my belly.
Speaker 2: And I go, hey, Wyndham.
Speaker 3: After the round, okay, he wins the, He comes over
Speaker 3: for his interview with me and I'm about to start.
Speaker 3: He goes, so what were you and Amanda doing earlier today?
Speaker 3: I was like, oh my God, I can't believe you A,
Speaker 3: remember that after what you just did and B, I
Speaker 3: have no idea what I was going to say to
Speaker 3: you now.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's so funny. That's so funny. I was like,
Speaker 2: don't worry about it. Don't just leave it. It's a
Speaker 2: girl chat. It's none of your business. It's a girl chat. Okay,
Speaker 2: piss off. Oh, that's funny. That's funny.
Speaker 3: So that was good. And then one of my favorite
Speaker 3: animals in this world is some of the old golf
Speaker 3: riders that sit around the meeting center and just complain.
Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
Speaker 3: These old guys, they just sit around and they, like,
Speaker 3: work each other up about any little thing that the
Speaker 3: broadcast says.
Speaker 2: Like, well, that's not true.
Speaker 3: You can't be passed over for a Ryder Cup spot.
Speaker 3: You just didn't get a Ryder Cup spot. Like, why
Speaker 3: would he say it like that? Da-da-da-da-da. Or, you know,
Speaker 3: just no creativity with these guys in their hands. Everything's
Speaker 3: just scripted these days. Da-da-da-da-da. And they're just going on
Speaker 3: and on in circles and dancing. big upping each other
Speaker 3: yeah you're right and i just want to turn around
Speaker 3: and be like shut up just write your little story
Speaker 3: and be done with it yeah i know you guys
Speaker 3: are all sitting around and complaining about everything.
Speaker 2: Oh my god oh that's so funny but i also
Speaker 2: love it like i love the listening in on it
Speaker 2: of course of course it's just such a unique unique
Speaker 2: golf niche thing yeah They also hate the online people now,
Speaker 2: don't they? Do you know what I mean? The people
Speaker 2: that have all their content online, the really good golf
Speaker 2: writers nowadays, it's just modern day golf content.
Speaker 3: The old school writers are giving so much shit to
Speaker 3: the writers that are writing, but they're also, because you
Speaker 3: kind of have to be a more forward-facing personality to
Speaker 3: get your content out there. So a lot of these
Speaker 3: writers will also present their stories on Instagram and like
Speaker 3: as a talking to camera thing. And the, the old
Speaker 3: school writers.
Speaker 4: Are just, they think that that's such a cop out.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I would never do. What are you trying to be like?
Speaker 2: So funny. So that, that was great. Oh.
Speaker 3: And the last thing is, is that Wyndham with his win,
Speaker 3: he officially is on the United States president's cup team.
Speaker 3: So he went from number seven in the standings to,
Speaker 3: to number three in the top six are automatic qualifiers.
Speaker 3: And he bumped young Ben Griffin out of the automatic qualifiers.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 4: So we'll see if he gets a pick.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, even his president's cut this year, isn't it?
Speaker 4: Medina.
Speaker 2: Yes. Okay.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: That'd be fun. That'd be fun. I mean, America, we're
Speaker 2: going to win.
Speaker 4: It'd be fun if not America won. I know I
Speaker 4: shouldn't say that, but.
Speaker 2: Should be a mixed event.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: It should be a mixed event. We've talked about this.
Speaker 3: It obviously needs to be a mixed event because then
Speaker 3: the internationals would actually stand a chance of winning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they would kill it. Well, not kill it, but
Speaker 2: it would be a lot more competitive, I would say,
Speaker 2: if the women got involved.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: The LPGA.
Speaker 5: Yes.
Speaker 3: Take it away. Okay.
Speaker 2: This week, Canada. Canada. God, I love the Canadian Open.
Speaker 2: It's so much fun. Like, honestly, the fans are, I think,
Speaker 2: I don't know if I've spoke about this before, but
Speaker 2: the fans are just incredible. Obviously, Brooke Henderson's brigade are there, like,
Speaker 2: just the biggest fan base you've ever seen in your life.
Speaker 2: She's obviously a national treasure there. But, yeah. Yamashita.
Speaker 4: Miyu Yamashita.
Speaker 2: Did she win by, like, nine or something?
Speaker 5: Yes.
Speaker 2: Nine shots. She was wire to wire. Minus 23. So, just...
Speaker 2: absurd uh golf this is now her fourth win and
Speaker 2: the one thing that's really cool about her well this
Speaker 2: is a fact really about her she's like one of
Speaker 2: the um shortest on tour hitters she's at like 235
Speaker 2: oh I thought.
Speaker 4: You were meaning like like stature.
Speaker 2: Well, she is as well. She's 4'11. She's a small girl, yeah.
Speaker 2: She's tiny. But, oh, my God, is she a baller. Yeah. So, yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean, just absolutely dominant, wire to wire. I mean,
Speaker 2: made an absolute statement, to be quite honest with you.
Speaker 2: So that's just the way the LPGA is going. We've
Speaker 2: got just, I just, like, every single week, like, just
Speaker 2: thank God I'm not out there, to be honest, trying
Speaker 2: to play. And I'm going to give a shout-out as
Speaker 2: well to Kiara Romero. obviously just turned pro. She gave
Speaker 2: a really good showing until the last day. She shot 75,
Speaker 2: but my God, she's going to be a superstar. I'm
Speaker 2: telling you now.
Speaker 3: So she got her, her card through the, I guess the, I.
Speaker 2: Forget what it's called. The PGA Tour U.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Basically.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Do they call it?
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 3: What do they call it?
Speaker 2: Um, I do know what they call it. My mind's
Speaker 2: gone blind, but.
Speaker 3: The LPGA's version of the PGA Tour U program, where
Speaker 3: if you get a certain amount of points based on
Speaker 3: like cuts made in professional events or starts in majors
Speaker 3: or whatever that you could, uh, become a professional instead
Speaker 3: of go straight to the LPGA instead of having to
Speaker 3: go through the usual mini tours, Epsom tour, feeder stuff.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And where did I, where did I interview her? It
Speaker 2: might be KPMG she came on the desk. I think
Speaker 2: it might've been, I dunno. I feel like we've had
Speaker 2: a lot of young stars come, obviously come through in
Speaker 2: the last few years, like, you know, Roseanne, you know,
Speaker 2: players like that, that really like Lottie Wode. Yeah. I mean,
Speaker 2: there's a lot where you're like, you're going to be
Speaker 2: really good, you know. Ah, Chiara, she's just different. I
Speaker 2: don't know what it is. There is an aura about
Speaker 2: her and like confidence about her. She's got a star quality.
Speaker 2: She's got, she is the full, like everyone said Moe
Speaker 2: Zhang was the full package and I didn't disagree at all.
Speaker 2: Like I would agree, but there was something there that
Speaker 2: I didn't almost felt like she was quite ready or
Speaker 2: not quite comfortable in her own skin yet to like
Speaker 2: really move mountains. Chiara is, like she is going to
Speaker 2: be an absolute, I think superstar. Like I really do.
Speaker 2: And her sister obviously might come out as well in
Speaker 2: the near future, in the next couple of years as well.
Speaker 2: Her sister's pretty darn good as well. So I would
Speaker 2: watch out for that space, but not to take away
Speaker 2: from her.
Speaker 4: Watch this space.
Speaker 2: Yamashita did, but I mean, just incredible stuff from her. Yamashita,
Speaker 2: just ridiculous, stupid. And I'm glad I'm on this side
Speaker 2: of things now and not trying to compete against players
Speaker 2: like her.
Speaker 3: And that's why we have a podcast.
Speaker 2: And that's why we do broadcasts and podcasts. That's why
Speaker 2: I talk shit for a living instead of playing shit.
Speaker 2: So make more money. Yeah, exactly. Missing cuts and paying
Speaker 2: people still. Yeah.
Speaker 3: The United States Soulbind Cup team has been announced. So
Speaker 3: I'm going to go and read off the names plus
Speaker 3: the three captains picks and you tell me your thoughts. Okay. Okay.
Speaker 3: So the United States Solheim Cup team, which will be
Speaker 3: facing off against Mel's heroes, are Nellie Korda, Angel Yin,
Speaker 3: Jennifer Kupcho, Austin Kim, Lynn Nino, Lauren Coughlin, Alison Corpuz,
Speaker 3: Andrea Lee, Allison Lee, and then the three captains' picks
Speaker 3: are Lindy Duncan, Megan Kang, and Rose Zhang.
Speaker 4: Thoughts, questions, concerns?
Speaker 2: Look, it's a great team. I think every single year we...
Speaker 2: On paper, I feel like the Europeans are probably not
Speaker 2: quite as strong. I feel like it's probably going to
Speaker 2: be the same situation this year. But it's always going
Speaker 2: to be very difficult for an American side to come
Speaker 2: over and play on European soil. We can see that
Speaker 2: in the Ryder Cup as well. Can you hear Banksy crying?
Speaker 2: Can you hear him screaming his tits off?
Speaker 3: Did you go do something about that? No, no.
Speaker 2: Carly's got him.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: Bless Carly. I mean I can't do anything I mean
Speaker 2: nothing comes out me so.
Speaker 4: Yeah you could be like it's okay he's hungry.
Speaker 2: He's yeah I do that he's okay he's got a
Speaker 2: bit of a cold bless him he's got a bit
Speaker 2: of a cold um bit of a stuffy nose probably
Speaker 2: because Kai snuzzles him whenever he gets the opportunity to
Speaker 2: and I'm like Kai's.
Speaker 4: Please don't kiss his face.
Speaker 2: I know, but then you're like, he's being really cute.
Speaker 2: So like, you don't want to make him uncomfortable. So
Speaker 2: it's just, anyway, back to the US team. Listen, it's
Speaker 2: always going to be a strong side. I think it's
Speaker 2: going to be a fantastic matchup. Look, I think Linny Duncan, 100%
Speaker 2: deserved to pick. I think that she deserves it. I
Speaker 2: think that she has earned it. And it's going to
Speaker 2: be really fun to see her on that team. It's just,
Speaker 2: I don't know, it makes your heart warm whenever Lindy
Speaker 2: Duncan does something well. Roseanne, she got a little bit injured,
Speaker 2: but apparently Angela's not worried about that at all in
Speaker 2: the next couple of weeks. So that's a good sign.
Speaker 2: Not great for Europeans if Roseanne is healthy, because obviously
Speaker 2: she's very good. Megan Kang, I knew that she was
Speaker 2: probably going to be a pick because she's just got
Speaker 2: that personality. Like you need her in the team.
Speaker 3: Hype woman.
Speaker 2: She is the hype woman.
Speaker 4: She's the Justin Thomas of the Solon Cup.
Speaker 2: Yeah, 100%.
Speaker 3: 100%.
Speaker 2: A hundred percent. And she kills it at Solheim. But yeah,
Speaker 2: it's great. I think the other players that I'm kind
Speaker 2: of looking at, Alison Lee, I think that's incredible that
Speaker 2: she's been able to get in the Solheim Cup. It's crazy.
Speaker 2: I know, straight after having Levi, yeah. You know, some
Speaker 2: 18 months ago. So again, incredible feat. Again, somebody who
Speaker 2: thoroughly deserves it has worked her ass off. And it's
Speaker 2: always fun when, you know, a mum gets on the
Speaker 2: team like this because it's just incredibly difficult to do
Speaker 2: it anyway without having... a little bed bear relying on you.
Speaker 2: So it's going to be fun. It's going to be
Speaker 2: really fun. Um, like I said, I think it's always
Speaker 2: difficult on a way soil. I think that we've got
Speaker 2: a really good connection in our team, but they've got
Speaker 2: good connections in their team. They've got good friendships, good
Speaker 2: kind of partnerships already. We've got a good mixture of
Speaker 2: veterans and rookies. And so, yeah, a lot of that's
Speaker 2: on this team. Yeah.
Speaker 3: How many captain's picks to the euros get do cool.
Speaker 3: How do you guys decide that? Like, is that a
Speaker 3: tradition thing?
Speaker 4: Like, why do the Euros have four and the US
Speaker 4: has three?
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's weird.
Speaker 4: And then the men do it differently too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we used to get two. We used to get
Speaker 2: two picks.
Speaker 3: I guess you could, if you're just making a team,
Speaker 3: like you can do whatever you want, right?
Speaker 2: You can do whatever you want, yeah.
Speaker 4: But I'm always just curious how.
Speaker 2: That gets decided. I think it's because of COVID. And
Speaker 2: I think it was something with COVID or something with
Speaker 2: lack of events in Europe. So obviously we get some
Speaker 2: European qualifiers to qualify from Europe. It used to be four.
Speaker 2: or something like that. But when they start to lose
Speaker 2: events a few years ago, basically the captains were like, look,
Speaker 2: I need more picks and less people qualifying through Europe
Speaker 2: because there's not as many opportunities. Yeah. And so you
Speaker 2: see what I'm saying? So there'll be girls that maybe
Speaker 2: have played 15 events in two years. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So it was kind of a lopsided or skewed rankings where..
Speaker 2: The third and fourth automatic qualifier from Europe was not necessarily,
Speaker 2: I hate saying the word weak, but probably would not
Speaker 2: have got in if there was only two different circumstances
Speaker 2: you know what i mean like it's different circumstances so
Speaker 2: but yeah it's all a bit confusing it's changed a
Speaker 2: couple times so i get a bit confused by it
Speaker 2: but i know it's coming up quick isn't it brian
Speaker 2: literally texted me this morning like holy shit in two
Speaker 2: weeks time we'll be in i'm like yeah i know
Speaker 2: i can't believe it's already in two weeks i know
Speaker 2: it's two weeks yeah oh my gosh.
Speaker 4: Is somebody gonna come and stay with carly while you're
Speaker 4: gone Yeah.
Speaker 2: My mother-in-law. Cause her whole family are coming for labor day.
Speaker 2: Like literally pretty much the whole family are coming. Um,
Speaker 2: and her mom is gonna stay.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: That's for the week. Yeah.
Speaker 3: That's nice. Perfect. So she'll have lots of help. Oh yeah.
Speaker 2: She'll have some help, but, um, yeah, it's going to be, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's exciting. It's going to be good. It's going to be,
Speaker 2: and I, and I know Chris has sent us some
Speaker 2: pictures from, uh, the golf course, the one that we're
Speaker 2: playing out and it's, uh, Bernadus, yeah. It's not Bernadus. Well, whatever.
Speaker 2: It's the same thing. It's Bernardus. Bernardus. Okay, sorry. I
Speaker 2: don't say it with an accent.
Speaker 4: I'm not saying it with an accent.
Speaker 3: It's just..
Speaker 2: Okay, well then.
Speaker 4: There's also a resort in Carmel called Bernardus.
Speaker 3: It's very nice. I've been there before.
Speaker 2: This is a beautiful place as well. I'm very excited
Speaker 2: to go. It looks phenomenal. Anyway, the Capitan has been
Speaker 2: sending photos and it looks stunning. So I'm very excited.
Speaker 2: Very excited.
Speaker 3: Oh my God.
Speaker 2: It's so good. So good.
Speaker 4: You can't make it up.
Speaker 3: Okay. I have a few quick topics for us to
Speaker 3: run through, and then you can go and check on
Speaker 3: your screaming child.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Okay.
Speaker 2: So number one, Rory told me.
Speaker 3: That he has built himself a traveling wellness trailer. He
Speaker 3: got inspired by Justin Rose after he won Memphis last year.
Speaker 3: But Rory's trailer is like Justin's on crack. So he's
Speaker 3: got a massive trailer. trailer that travels with him that
Speaker 3: some man drives around and it's got a full gym
Speaker 3: a kitchen uh red light therapy sauna cold plunge um
Speaker 3: like all of his crap um and it just gets
Speaker 3: dragged around everywhere with.
Speaker 2: Him it was crap yeah whatever i don't.
Speaker 3: Know whatever these people travel with um And it's like his,
Speaker 3: his own recovery trailer. So the PGA tour does provide
Speaker 3: a lot of these things, but not for, not for Rory.
Speaker 3: And I was like, Rory, you got to start sending,
Speaker 3: or you got to start selling memberships to this thing.
Speaker 3: The most exclusive gym on wheels. Maybe I'll consider it
Speaker 3: for some of the, the team Europe guys.
Speaker 2: There we go. There we go.
Speaker 4: Start paying a membership to use the Rory wellness trailer.
Speaker 2: I mean, listen, it's the way that they're going. I
Speaker 2: know it's the way they're going. I mean, I actually
Speaker 2: spoke to Justin. I think we've talked about this, but
Speaker 2: I spoke to Justin Rose about this. We're doing an
Speaker 2: Amazon AWS, sorry, golf day in December. And he was
Speaker 2: talking about his wellness thing. He was like, I think
Speaker 2: we're always going to do it. But literally, as you said,
Speaker 2: I think it's going to be mine on crack.
Speaker 3: It's a great use of money.
Speaker 4: That's a great way.
Speaker 2: Do you know how fun that would be to build that?
Speaker 3: Oh, amazing.
Speaker 2: Like, it would be so fun.
Speaker 5: Like, we..
Speaker 2: I don't know. Like we have a gym in our
Speaker 2: house and I loved like doing that, but there's, oh
Speaker 2: my God, I would love to add other things. I
Speaker 2: just don't have the space or the money.
Speaker 3: So we don't have anywhere near, we could, we could
Speaker 3: do everything possible to try and pull our resources.
Speaker 4: We know, even if we put every last penny.
Speaker 3: No, there's no way.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 4: I mean, nothing was paying the guy to drive.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 5: I know.
Speaker 2: Imagine being that guy. Yeah. I know.
Speaker 3: I was like, I have so many questions. where does
Speaker 3: he stay? Does he get to live on the trailer?
Speaker 3: Does he have to stay in a hotel?
Speaker 2: That's a good point. Is he putting him up in
Speaker 2: the ritz every week? Yeah.
Speaker 3: Does he switch off with somebody else?
Speaker 2: Is he there when you're working out?
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: It's like, do you have to chat? Does he use
Speaker 2: the kitchen?
Speaker 4: Does he use the bathroom?
Speaker 3: Like, his name's probably Craig or something like, hey, Craig,
Speaker 3: I'm going to go get in my red light sauna.
Speaker 2: Exactly. Exactly. Like, does he live in the trailer? Yeah.
Speaker 2: That's a bunch of questions that we need Rory to answer,
Speaker 2: to be honest. So next time you see him, Ask
Speaker 2: him that. We need to talk through.
Speaker 3: The logistics of that. But anyway, I thought that was
Speaker 3: pretty cool. Oh, live Indianapolis. The end of live 1.0,
Speaker 3: at least they canceled their season ending championship event in Michigan.
Speaker 3: So this ended up being the last event of their
Speaker 3: season for individual play, team play, whatever. And it was
Speaker 3: that kind of some random golf course in Indiana. And
Speaker 3: they get to choose walkout music and Tyrell Hatton, Being
Speaker 3: the little..
Speaker 2: The little... Legend. Hobbit that he is. Legend that he is.
Speaker 2: He picked, I.
Speaker 3: Want to break free. As his walkout song. So I
Speaker 3: think Tyrell might.
Speaker 2: Be leaving live.
Speaker 3: What do you think?
Speaker 2: I would say so. And also when they won the... Whatever, Legion,
Speaker 2: whatever the name.
Speaker 4: Legion 13, I think.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 4: The Jon Ron team.
Speaker 2: The Jon Ron team. He could not have gaffed. less
Speaker 2: of a shit being on that one to be fair
Speaker 2: there was only about 15 people celebrating.
Speaker 3: Oh on the stage yeah I saw that video he.
Speaker 2: Wanted to leave he literally just went and just pissed
Speaker 2: off he's a legend he.
Speaker 7: Started to do the champagne and he just he just
Speaker 7: pissed off yeah.
Speaker 2: And then he got interviewed and he was like and
Speaker 2: they're like well you don't seem you know you're not
Speaker 2: really giving he says I just want to get to
Speaker 2: the airport I just I want to get my flight.
Speaker 5: I'm trying to get to the British Masters bye yeah
Speaker 5: bye um yeah look I mean it's not looking great
Speaker 5: is it the league i mean it's not looking great
Speaker 5: at all it's a bit of a sad scene and uh.
Speaker 2: But listen these boys have made gazillion so whatever if
Speaker 2: they don't have to play golf again they don't play
Speaker 2: golf again but surely someone like john ram and tyrell
Speaker 2: and you know bryce and maybe i don't know we've
Speaker 2: talked about it but surely they want to still be
Speaker 2: competitive and play i mean.
Speaker 3: Surely yeah for sure yeah i just don't know where
Speaker 3: they will be competitive and play um If anybody out
Speaker 3: there needs a good read today that sums things up
Speaker 3: well and also gives you a giggle, Alan Shipnick did
Speaker 3: a good piece for Scratch of his dispatch from being there.
Speaker 4: And it was quite a dystopian scene.
Speaker 3: And he included all these funny quotes and just kind
Speaker 3: of reminds us of, you know, the lore of all
Speaker 3: of this from Greg Norman to the lawsuits to Taylor Gooch.
Speaker 4: Saying that Rory has an asterisk next to his.
Speaker 3: Master's win and like some other crazy stuff so anywho
Speaker 3: um watch this space.
Speaker 2: Yeah to be continued to be continued.
Speaker 3: Maybe we'll see what ends up happening if they file
Speaker 3: for bankruptcy, if they have an investor come in.
Speaker 4: It'll be fascinating to watch.
Speaker 2: Can even buy the rings for them from that famous
Speaker 2: jeweler for the end of the season. They can get
Speaker 2: their little Super Bowl rings.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4: Apparently because they didn't pay for them last time.
Speaker 2: Well, that would probably do it. They owe the jeweler.
Speaker 2: That would probably do it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no more rented out private 747s.
Speaker 3: No, I don't think so.
Speaker 4: No more six figures spent on just wine.
Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Sad.
Speaker 2: Sad. I don't know how they're going to survive.
Speaker 3: I know. Tough.
Speaker 2: Anyway, moving on. Last thing.
Speaker 3: Last thing I had that I had.
Speaker 4: And then if you have something to bring up.
Speaker 3: Please.
Speaker 4: But did you see the good, good Callaway ad?
Speaker 2: Oh, my God. Okay, this is the last thing we're
Speaker 2: talking about. Oh, my God.
Speaker 3: What the fuck?
Speaker 2: Kira, like, are they fucking stupid?
Speaker 3: The amount of people that probably would have had to
Speaker 3: approve this..
Speaker 2: Okay, this is my... Exactly. Okay, carry on, please. Because
Speaker 2: this is..
Speaker 3: No, no, go for it.
Speaker 2: Go for it.
Speaker 3: How did this even get out?
Speaker 4: Well, let's set it up first.
Speaker 2: Okay, let's go.
Speaker 4: So if you don't know what we're talking about, you
Speaker 4: can look it up on Reddit, YouTube, whatever.
Speaker 3: GoodGood, which is a golf creator YouTube sensation, put out
Speaker 3: an ad in collaboration with Callaway advertising this driver. And
Speaker 3: in it, there's video imagery of... the main guy from good,
Speaker 3: good pushing one of the female creators in a really
Speaker 3: aggressive way. And it's basically depicting like violence against women. Um,
Speaker 3: and then there's, he's trying to like defend people from
Speaker 3: touching the driver is the concept.
Speaker 4: And they're trying to present it in this cheeky way.
Speaker 3: And then, uh, one of the other good, good male
Speaker 3: creators touches the driver, but doesn't get pushed. I don't know.
Speaker 4: Very interesting execution. Um, I can see.
Speaker 3: So to, to just back up a little bit, like
Speaker 3: I can see where the idea originated from in terms
Speaker 3: of probably who they know their audience to be and
Speaker 3: how things have landed via their YouTube audience, but trying
Speaker 3: to take that and like clearly missing on the concept
Speaker 3: and then branding it for like a massive commercial with
Speaker 3: a huge club, a blue chip brand. is not those
Speaker 3: two things are not the same. It's not the same audience.
Speaker 3: It's not the same, you know, whatever. So, um, so
Speaker 3: that part is weird.
Speaker 4: And then also obviously the violence aspect is really problematic.
Speaker 5: So, yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, back to your point there, like how has this
Speaker 2: been approved from like probably four or five different stages
Speaker 2: and people? it's just, I don't know. I just think
Speaker 2: in this day and age, you just can't do stuff
Speaker 2: like that. We can't do this in general. Like it's
Speaker 2: a bit, it was uncomfortable to watch. I thought it
Speaker 2: was going to be like, Oh, everyone's being sensitive again.
Speaker 2: Like blah, blah, blah. No, it's, I don't like it.
Speaker 2: I think that, um, it's not a great look. I
Speaker 2: thought their apology was a little bit weak as well.
Speaker 2: And I like, I like the good guys. I think
Speaker 2: they do really good stuff for golf. Like my, you know,
Speaker 2: my nephews are obsessed with them. Um, again, the reason
Speaker 2: why they got into golf, but it's just weird.
Speaker 4: Like these guys, I think get into this bro-y echo chamber.
Speaker 2: It just gets so fucking annoying, Kira, because you like,
Speaker 2: you like try and make these steps, like make it
Speaker 2: a bit more comfortable for women. And like, they have
Speaker 2: no idea like how, like how much harder we have
Speaker 2: to work to get like, I don't know. And I'm
Speaker 2: not trying to say like, woe is or anything, but
Speaker 2: it isn't comfortable for women to get into golf. Like
Speaker 2: it is difficult to constantly fight for inclusion. It is difficult. And,
Speaker 2: You think that you're getting somewhere with these guys and
Speaker 2: then they do something like that. And I'm sure that
Speaker 2: that might not be their opinion on, you know, I'm
Speaker 2: sure they just messed up and, you know, this and that,
Speaker 2: but it's not a great look. And it's just frustrating
Speaker 2: that yet again, things like that get made.
Speaker 4: That not a single person in the room was like, ah,
Speaker 4: this is a bit awkward.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And like to give them credit, they've, they've, they now
Speaker 3: have the good, good girls. Like one of the girl that,
Speaker 3: that was pushed over, she's part of that, the female
Speaker 3: content creator group, but they're clearly trying.
Speaker 4: To make investments in pushing female golf content forward.
Speaker 2: I understand. And that's what I mean. That's what, but again,
Speaker 2: it's just the respect, isn't it? It's just like you
Speaker 2: take two steps forward and then they just, you know,
Speaker 2: that's kind of how it feels like.
Speaker 3: It's like, is this what you guys really think at
Speaker 3: the end of the day?
Speaker 2: Or are you just ticking a box? Like, do you
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying? Like, are you just, and so
Speaker 2: that's just the constant battle that, like we have to
Speaker 2: always fight and it's just frustrating that we always have
Speaker 2: to fight it and it's just I don't know I
Speaker 2: listen they did send an apology I thought the apology
Speaker 2: was a little bit weak.
Speaker 6: Um yeah I'm still shocked it got as far as
Speaker 6: it did yeah it was just some BS yeah and
Speaker 6: listen I'm gonna give the guys benefit the doubt that
Speaker 6: I'm you know I think they just effed up but
Speaker 6: it's not that they don't actually yes think that about
Speaker 6: disrespect yeah uh treatment towards women however however Let's just
Speaker 6: make it a hard and fast rule that we're not
Speaker 6: going to depict the violence of women to sell golf.
Speaker 3: Clubs moving forward.
Speaker 2: I mean, my God. I mean, it's just..
Speaker 3: It's just insane.
Speaker 2: It's just why women need to rule the world, you know?
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 3: We just..
Speaker 2: We would never do anything that stupid. But there's just
Speaker 2: so many more creative ways of doing it.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: I know. Especially for them. They've made their entire... Entire..
Speaker 3: Brand on doing creative and fun and interesting new things
Speaker 3: that are completely different in the world of golf do
Speaker 3: that don't do this whatever this crap.
Speaker 2: Is yeah i mean i like the boys but i
Speaker 2: didn't like this at all i thought it was i
Speaker 2: thought it was bad form i thought it was just
Speaker 2: like here we go again you know what i mean
Speaker 2: it was kind of like that like here we go like.
Speaker 3: Yeah i i kind of had a disappointing like uh
Speaker 3: yeah it was just frustrating it's just like oh.
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly we're back exactly here.
Speaker 4: We are Yeah.
Speaker 3: Here we are.
Speaker 2: And then everyone's like, well, women are so sensitive. I'm like, no, bro. Like,
Speaker 2: it's just, oh my God. Like, no, it's not about that.
Speaker 7: Sorry.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I am going to be sensitive about that. I apologize
Speaker 4: for it.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But it's not, it's not even, it
Speaker 2: is that, but it's not even just about that. It's
Speaker 2: just like, what? Like, when is it okay to push
Speaker 2: really anyone over? But like, especially a man to a woman.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I just don't like it. And in
Speaker 2: such an aggressive way.
Speaker 4: And the sound that she makes when she falls is
Speaker 4: like legitimate.
Speaker 2: It's just weird. It's, yeah, not good.
Speaker 3: It was just quite odd.
Speaker 2: So, Anyways, don't do it again.
Speaker 3: That was a big double bogey.
Speaker 2: Okay. Yes.
Speaker 3: Don't do it again.
Speaker 2: That was a triple bogey.
Speaker 4: We don't like, yeah, that was a sad face on
Speaker 4: the card.
Speaker 2: Did not finish the whole. No, that was, yes. Really bad.
Speaker 2: That was a DQ.
Speaker 3: DQ.
Speaker 2: A DFL. Oh, no, that's even better. No, not a DQ.
Speaker 2: A DFL.
Speaker 3: A DFL.
Speaker 2: Boys.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So please don't do it again.
Speaker 5: We told them.
Speaker 2: Yes, ma'am. Yes, we did.
Speaker 3: Okay, what's your shush of the week now?
Speaker 2: My shush of the week. It's not really a shush
Speaker 2: of the week, but it is. You've been grocery shopping
Speaker 2: at like 7 a.m. It's fucking brilliant.
Speaker 4: Sorry, that's not in the spirit of the shush of
Speaker 4: the week.
Speaker 2: Okay. But that does sound lovely. Okay, don't go grocery
Speaker 2: shopping at 5 p.m. on a Thursday.
Speaker 3: That's the shush.
Speaker 2: That's the shush. Go over and I did on Sunday
Speaker 2: morning at 7 o'clock. because I need to get banks
Speaker 2: of medicine but me and Kai got distracted and we
Speaker 2: were in the store for an hour that's lovely yeah
Speaker 2: we got Kai loves shopping but he doesn't like pick
Speaker 2: things out so he's quite well behaved so it's so
Speaker 2: much fun because Carly hates it there's so much to
Speaker 2: look at like I literally at 7am I was like
Speaker 2: right let's go and get the medicine then we got
Speaker 2: distracted and we went to the fishing aisle and then
Speaker 2: we got distracted again and went to the garden aisle
Speaker 2: and then we went to the clothes aisle so he
Speaker 2: he was we were having a day Is that like
Speaker 2: Target or something? Well, we've got like a super Walmart
Speaker 2: in Arrows. So I didn't like buy anything, but I
Speaker 2: bought medicine. And just, I threw in some bits and
Speaker 2: bobs like Tiger Balm and random shit we don't need.
Speaker 2: You've got to get a Tiger Balm. Bluey plasters. Bluey band-aids.
Speaker 2: I don't know why. I bought some tape for my hand.
Speaker 2: My hand's not even hurt. But just in case.
Speaker 4: In case you decide to go crazy on the range.
Speaker 1: It's harmony.
Speaker 2: It's harmony. I can't even do it. I'm like, I'm
Speaker 2: fucking out. so anyhow so yeah so I'm a big
Speaker 2: fan of this um okay don't go at 5pm don't
Speaker 2: go at 5pm and then I took him to Costco
Speaker 2: so then I dropped all the stuff off and then
Speaker 2: I was like right we need some meat oh Kira
Speaker 2: I did the best beef uh Sunday roast yesterday of
Speaker 2: my life I did the best beef of my life
Speaker 2: yesterday it was so good it was just like it
Speaker 2: was Christian I'd seared it on the outside and then
Speaker 2: I so cooked it and it was perfectly pink in
Speaker 2: the middle I mean, just melted in your mouth. It was,
Speaker 2: it was, but then I forgot the gravy. And so don't,
Speaker 2: it's quite traumatizing. Actually. I had to, I don't know
Speaker 2: what I just, I really messed up the gravy because
Speaker 2: I didn't have any gravy granules. So I thought I
Speaker 2: could do it a different way. And Kai asked me
Speaker 2: what the water was on my plate, which was probably
Speaker 2: the most offensive thing he's ever said to me.
Speaker 3: So rude.
Speaker 2: And then he tries to put his water on.
Speaker 5: Dude.
Speaker 2: And like, that's probably, there's a few offensive things you
Speaker 2: can say to a Brit, but saying they have watery gravy.
Speaker 2: is probably up there in the top three. And so
Speaker 2: when my own son, who I've slaved four hours making
Speaker 2: him dinner, which he doesn't even eat, is then going,
Speaker 2: why do I have water on my plate? Was pretty offensive. So, yeah.
Speaker 3: Do better, Mel.
Speaker 2: Well, you should see my order today. I ordered... i'm
Speaker 2: going to send you a picture i ordered for last
Speaker 2: night i ordered eight bistro gravy granule i ordered eight
Speaker 2: of them so now i won't run out till christmas.
Speaker 5: Is this like gravy powder granules i don't.
Speaker 2: I don't speak okay it's sensational okay is this a
Speaker 2: british thing yeah it's amazing it's the best gravy you'll
Speaker 2: ever have so anyway I did a great Sunday roast
Speaker 2: but anyway this is my shush that we don't go

Speaker 2: Sunday morning it's the best okay and I had his
Speaker 2: pyjamas and brown sandals on which to be fair cute

Speaker 2: at Walmart so he kind of bit right in so
Speaker 2: okay go What's yours?
Speaker 3: Well, um, when you're eight months pregnant out in public, uh,
Speaker 3: you're just a beacon for people wanting to chat and listen, I,
Speaker 3: everybody's so sweet and so supportive and asking really nice questions,
Speaker 3: but I, I did just kind of get to the
Speaker 3: point where I wanted to, I saw a girl on
Speaker 3: Tik TOK do this.
Speaker 4: Uh, just put a bunch of post-it notes on my
Speaker 4: stomach that said.
Speaker 2: I'm eight months.
Speaker 3: Um, it's a, this is the gender. I'm not saying
Speaker 3: it publicly. I'm saying it to people that are asking
Speaker 3: me in person. So I'm not going to say here,
Speaker 3: but it's this, um, uh, this is my due date. Um, yes,
Speaker 3: I'm feeling good.
Speaker 2: Uh, yes.
Speaker 3: Sleeping is hard. And just walk around like that. And
Speaker 3: it's so sweet because people go, Oh yeah. People just, they,
Speaker 3: they care, but it's also, they don't know what else
Speaker 3: to say or do.
Speaker 2: Um, Do you think they're nicer to you? I always
Speaker 2: found people were nice. Oh yeah. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 4: They're rushing to help me put my bag up in
Speaker 4: the plane. I love that shit. You know, I love attention.
Speaker 3: So people are like bringing me sweet treats. And I was,
Speaker 3: I had gone up to the, uh, to get some
Speaker 3: water from in the media center cooler and they had
Speaker 3: just run out of water.
Speaker 4: And I was like, maybe I should ask somebody.
Speaker 3: And just like somebody had seen me maybe looking around
Speaker 3: a little bit and this guy just ran and.
Speaker 2: Was like, I'm the hug.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah. So I mean, everybody, everybody was, was very supportive. However, nice. I, uh,
Speaker 3: I chat for a living, right? Like our jobs are to,
Speaker 3: to talk to these guys and to gather information and
Speaker 3: all of that. So when I'm, also chatting outside of
Speaker 3: my allotted chat time. It just, it's a bit, it
Speaker 3: can be hard.
Speaker 2: So I'm very with you on that.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So that, that was a tough thing. Um, but it
Speaker 4: was very sweet and very nice.
Speaker 3: And I still, I can't believe that I am like,
Speaker 3: I don't have another flight booked currently to anywhere. I've been,
Speaker 3: I think we've probably said this, but I, but I'll
Speaker 3: say it again is that I've been traveling consistently since
Speaker 3: I was Miss America, other than the pandemic. And the
Speaker 3: idea of not having that in my life right now
Speaker 3: is so freeing, but disorienting and weird.
Speaker 2: It is quite weird. It's like, I've even said, he was,
Speaker 2: I think it was my sister the other day. I
Speaker 2: was like, I'm kind of ready, but I'm not ready
Speaker 2: to get back on the road. Like I'm not ready
Speaker 2: to leave my family, but I'm ready to kind of
Speaker 2: get back and get my normal routine going.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Cause it's normal for us.
Speaker 2: I know it's weird though, isn't it? It's weird because
Speaker 2: I love being at home, but I'm like, it just doesn't,
Speaker 2: I just, I feel like a piece of me is missing.
Speaker 2: So I'm not traveling all the time.
Speaker 3: I know, but like there's most people just have a
Speaker 3: routine at home.
Speaker 2: No, I know. I can do that. I can be
Speaker 2: cool and have a routine. You're going to do Pilates,
Speaker 2: church Pilates a lot.
Speaker 3: I probably won't do church Pilates before the baby comes
Speaker 3: anymore because there's just a lot of movements in the
Speaker 3: class that are a little like they, I need to be,
Speaker 3: I need to adjust for, what my abs and body
Speaker 3: can do. And the instructor, I don't think is hands-on
Speaker 3: enough or knows enough to be able to safely help
Speaker 3: me do that. So it's just, and I feel like
Speaker 3: I'm just, it's an expensive class. So I just feel
Speaker 3: like I'm not getting as much out of it as
Speaker 3: I should be. I do have a PT that come,
Speaker 3: that's going to be coming to my house and working
Speaker 3: with me. She's already come once.
Speaker 2: I'm actually getting a PT. I'm meeting her tomorrow.
Speaker 3: I have a PT that I'm meeting tomorrow. Well, look
Speaker 3: at us.
Speaker 4: Just responsible for taking care of their bodies.
Speaker 2: Honestly.
Speaker 3: Honestly. What time is your appointment?
Speaker 2: 1.45.
Speaker 4: Mine's at 3.30, but still.
Speaker 2: Still pretty similar.
Speaker 3: The last funny thing that I had was my PGA
Speaker 3: Tour credential that was hanging around my neck. Just all
Speaker 3: of a sudden, in the middle of a conversation with somebody,
Speaker 3: started to jump up and down from the baby from
Speaker 3: the baby that's amazing.
Speaker 8: Don't mind that just just ignore it yeah thank you
