WEBVTT - A Conversation About Golf & Other Things with Shane Bacon 0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:04.160 Now, the Shotgun Starting Golf is full of mathematics. There's 0:00:04.200 --> 0:00:06.680 a lot of setup work that we have to do 0:00:06.720 --> 0:00:10.000 in order to make a tournament work. So I'm going 0:00:10.080 --> 0:00:12.399 to demonstrate to you just exactly how we do a 0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:15.360 Shotgun Start here and where we. 0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:22.000 Alright, alright, alright, did no man? 0:00:24.040 --> 0:00:48.840 Darn your. 0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:44.360 Greetings and welcome to another edition of the Shotgun Start. 0:00:44.400 --> 0:00:47.600 Today is Wednesday, April twenty second. 0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:49.560 Shape. How are you doing? 0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:50.840 Andy? 0:00:50.960 --> 0:00:54.520 I wonder how many people turn the pod off right now, 0:00:54.840 --> 0:00:57.920 like they're like, no, Brendan, Andy's got to do the 0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:00.600 intro done. Nope, We'll skip to Friday. I wonder what 0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:03.360 that what those numbers look like? I get peege on 0:01:03.440 --> 0:01:04.520 that at some point. 0:01:05.600 --> 0:01:07.119 Well, they know. 0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:11.440 The people that stick around know that podcasts with me 0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:16.479 and you on this speed tend to be rambling and 0:01:16.840 --> 0:01:19.399 just all over the place. I believe that we did 0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.480 do one that we titled a show about Nothing about 0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:23.320 five years. 0:01:23.120 --> 0:01:26.319 Ago, maybe one of the worst episodes in the Shotgun 0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:28.520 Start history outside of the one you guys recorded in 0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:31.080 the car, which is always going to be number one. 0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:33.800 But I will say I was very proud of you 0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:39.319 all that you even in your advanced podcasting era still 0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:41.840 do the thing where you're in different rooms in the 0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:44.240 same house doing the pod. I got a good kick 0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:44.640 out of that. 0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:49.160 Well, yeah, we didn't have PJ. If we had had 0:01:49.240 --> 0:01:52.320 PJ with us in Scotland, we would have been able 0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:55.720 to just do it all together. But you know, we 0:01:55.720 --> 0:02:02.120 we regress to the technical of myself and Brendan and 0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:04.840 and thus we're going to record in different rooms. 0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:07.760 But it worked, it happened, It got a word door. 0:02:08.280 --> 0:02:10.480 I was a little I was stressing about the Wi 0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:14.519 Fi capabilities of whatever house in Scotland you guys had, 0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:16.680 but for even all three of you, it worked. It 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:19.160 was great. It was you know, I'm just happy it happened. 0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:21.600 This reminded me I have a bunch of stuff I 0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:24.000 need to back up now that I'm on Wi Fi. 0:02:24.120 --> 0:02:28.280 That that is you know, quick there, And you. 0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:30.200 Have a question for you. By the way, Pege and 0:02:30.240 --> 0:02:32.720 I are airplane buddies, so we've already been on an 0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:35.760 airplane together this year, Andy, when did you decide to 0:02:35.760 --> 0:02:42.480 go to the like the flight controller microphone thing made me? Okay, 0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:43.800 what was the reason for this? 0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:47.680 Okay, this was for when we were doing a show 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:51.520 at the us open last year in the brewery, so 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:54.480 I needed better sound quality. I couldn't have open mics, 0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:59.920 so I bought these headsets. Brendan habitual bad mic etiquette. 0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:03.000 Yeah, he's he's he and forth. 0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:05.760 Yeah, makes it hard to edit on my end. So 0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:08.120 I said, screw it. We're going headsets full time. So 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:10.760 you just you know, speak and it'll pick up. 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:11.880 And move around all you want. 0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:15.000 Yeah, I think I'm going to go back to that, 0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:16.680 the the mic stand. 0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:19.320 I don't like the headset, you know, I would. 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:21.720 Like I would like every I would like once an episode, 0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:26.040 every episode you just randomly talk about, like a flight incoming, 0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:31.320 just just on the side, like Newark to O'Hair. Yeah, fo. 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.480 Go Freddy Kitchens with the with the play sheet. You 0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:36.800 gotta cover and cover your mouth. 0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:38.480 It's pretty good. I like that a lot. 0:03:39.200 --> 0:03:41.920 I had a disaster of flight yesterday. 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:45.080 Wait, so you were in Scotland. You flew Scotland to 0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:46.000 where to Wear. 0:03:46.200 --> 0:03:47.600 To Newark to sfo. 0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:49.520 Oh, you actually flew to Newark? I was I was 0:03:49.560 --> 0:03:51.560 actually joking about that. I don't I've never I haven't 0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:54.000 stopped but lived in the Northeast now for five years, 0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:55.640 have not stepped foot in Newark one time. 0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:59.920 I mean, it's fine, it's I feel like everything is 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.640 Newark's like a generic you know, it looks nice, but 0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.760 it's just you know, there's no name brand behind it. 0:04:07.240 --> 0:04:11.280 I got delayed there for a couple hours. I ended 0:04:11.360 --> 0:04:14.240 up traveling. I was traveling for twenty three and a 0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:14.960 half hours. 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:18.560 Hmmm, that's tough. That's tough. How was the Old Course? 0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:21.880 By the way, it was amazing. Okay, you played it reverse? 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:23.839 Did you play it normal and then reverse. 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:25.719 Normal and then reverse? It was a great event. 0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:28.440 I mean, I don't think I have to like tell 0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:31.839 people this, but I mean that's about. 0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:33.840 As good of an event as you can do. They 0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:34.960 do the Old. 0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:38.839 Course Reverse Lottery, which I assume your chances of winning 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:42.000 are very small, but you should enter it every year 0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:45.159 because if you win, it's like the coolest event you 0:04:45.160 --> 0:04:47.520 could do. They have dinner. They have a dinner one night. 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:52.800 We did a live podcast one night, and uh, it's 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:58.440 just like it's pretty surreal. It's just it's wild how 0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:00.719 the course works. And I think we're gonna do a 0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:05.400 Friday episode about this maybe next week. But in a 0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:07.600 way like the you don't how the front nine of 0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:10.680 the old course really makes sense. Yeah, and then the 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:12.640 back nine is a little bit like chaos. 0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:14.680 Yeah, I mean it's really starting on twelve t it's 0:05:14.680 --> 0:05:15.400 just total chaos. 0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:19.360 Yes, well, the back nine when you're playing the in 0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:22.240 reverse is the front nine, and it actually makes a 0:05:22.240 --> 0:05:26.720 lot of sense. Like one T one tee to seventeen 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:28.040 Green is a really good hole. 0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:31.360 Yeah for sure. So you hit driver on one and 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:33.800 did you hit it down like by the bridge or 0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:35.640 was there did you have to take less than driver? 0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:38.799 So I played Hickory's in the reverse because it's only 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:43.400 like six thousand yards Okay, Okay, so I mean it 0:05:43.480 --> 0:05:48.200 was long, but two is a two in reverse is crazy? 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:53.800 So going from seventeen t or no next to seventeen 0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:58.560 green to sixteen green you have to play over the 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:02.200 over the corn into the green. 0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:04.000 No to hit over there. 0:06:04.520 --> 0:06:07.120 I mean it's like it's way harder. I think it's 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:09.000 way harder than the road hole. 0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:10.960 Yeah, yeah, I mean is it a part? I mean, 0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:12.680 I know it's pars of irrelevant. Is it kind of 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:14.080 a par five in theory or no? 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:16.760 It was apparently originally a par five. 0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:18.800 Okay, that would make more sense, But. 0:06:18.800 --> 0:06:21.360 Yeah, it made a ton of sense, like, you know, 0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:23.760 the obviously the hole on the old course that everybody 0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:27.960 says is just like you know, absurd is the twelfth 0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:30.080 hole because you can't see any of the bunker. 0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:30.320 No. 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:32.600 No, When I was Caddy in there, Andy and I 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:34.800 would tell people there were, however many eight bunkers or 0:06:34.800 --> 0:06:36.760 whatever out there, and they would look at you like 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:39.719 you were a complete moron, which they weren't wrong. I 0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.840 was a complete more on. But there were the bunkers 0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:44.680 out there, and then they you know, I mean everybody 0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:47.000 hits it in them. I mean unless you're you know, 0:06:47.080 --> 0:06:48.640 unless you hit it three hundred yards, you're hitting it 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:50.279 in a bunker no matter what. And I mean you 0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:53.000 could hit it way right to be okay if the 0:06:53.080 --> 0:06:56.240 rough's down a little bit. But there's literally nowhere to 0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:57.080 hit that t shot. 0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:01.160 It's it's that's a ridiculous hole. 0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:03.080 I was playing it dead into the wind, and I 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:05.080 was like, I don't know where to hit it because like, 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:06.920 if it's not into the wind, I feel like I 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:08.080 could get past everything. 0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:11.200 Yeah, yeah, which is mine. Yeah, you can vombit over 0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:13.960 everything with like with your with your actual equipment. But yeah, 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:16.320 Hickorys would have been different to play on that. 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:21.640 But yeah, Hickory's made it incredible. I I regret. 0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.520 I was like kind of in a I've got a 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:26.720 lot of stuff going on with my life right now, 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:28.680 in a bit of a. 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.200 I mean, you got eight airplanes, you got airplanes frying 0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:32.880 of land. I mean, you got a lot of stuff going. 0:07:33.240 --> 0:07:36.680 And when I packed for the trip, obviously I did 0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:38.640 Augusta to Saint Andrews. 0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:40.520 I was gone for sixteen days. 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:45.240 But I packed at like ten pm the night before Augusta, 0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:48.120 leaving for Augusta, and I just threw my clubs in. 0:07:48.200 --> 0:07:49.160 I didn't even think. 0:07:49.640 --> 0:07:52.600 But I like two weeks earlier I had thought like, okay, 0:07:53.040 --> 0:07:56.520 make your set like a real cool set for for. 0:07:56.520 --> 0:07:57.760 Your week of links golf. 0:07:58.240 --> 0:07:59.920 But I got to the point where I just was 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.720 like and pack as fast as you can mode and 0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:05.480 just like threw the clubs into the travel bag, sipped 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:08.200 it up. Yeah, and I was like, that's done. So 0:08:08.520 --> 0:08:10.200 I wish I would have thought about it more. But 0:08:10.600 --> 0:08:16.880 I mean, Scotland's undefeated. It's have you done the reverse? 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:17.360 Yeah? 0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:20.680 No, never never done the reverse. Would be very would 0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:23.560 be very into that, I mean, you know, like spending 0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:26.560 a decent amount of time. I would always when I 0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:29.240 had guys walk off twelve green, I would always make 0:08:29.280 --> 0:08:31.080 them turn around and I'll be like, just so you know, 0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:33.640 this makes way more sense, you know, and they would 0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:37.920 always look back and a couple of holes like that thirteen. 0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:41.080 I feel like kind of a little similar in terms of, yeah, 0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:43.679 the second shot to that green kind of you kind 0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:46.480 of can't hit a close second shot there, you know, 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:49.760 unless the whole locations like way back. But they wouldn't 0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:51.200 push it that far back most of the time. But 0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:54.240 I feel like reversing that hole as well, you're more 0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:55.800 playing into the green or whatever. 0:08:56.240 --> 0:08:59.520 It felt like the entire back nine to me actually 0:08:59.520 --> 0:09:00.800 worked back or in reverse. 0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:05.240 Yeah, but you know, it is the way it is. 0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:07.600 It would be cool if they kept mowing it out 0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:10.760 more and more every year so it gets better in reverse. 0:09:10.840 --> 0:09:13.360 And maybe they didn't do it more often. I don't know. 0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:16.520 It's uh, I didn't expect to do Old Course reverse minute. 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:19.280 But you know, the open opens at the Old Course 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:22.600 next year. That's next year. I can't wait. I I 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:24.560 like want to go to St. Andrews every year. 0:09:24.720 --> 0:09:27.280 It's yeah, it's it's an interesting major lineup. If you 0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:32.480 looked the next year August the Pebbles and Andrews and Frisco. Yeah, 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:34.880 so it's an interesting lineup. 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:40.800 It is mean pebble obviously, Like you talk about the 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:43.560 cathedrals of the game, and I don't know if pebble 0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:47.000 should still be considered a cathedral, but it is, but 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:49.520 it is, But it is with what equipment's done to it. 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:51.719 But it is. 0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:54.400 You have a Pebble and the old course, like two 0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:57.839 of the most sought after venues to win a major 0:09:57.920 --> 0:09:59.840 at and then you and then you got Frisco. 0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:03.080 But Frisco. Maybe in one hundred years people will be like, 0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:04.360 PJA Frisco. 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:07.440 Yeah, it's one of the drums you beat that I 0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:11.520 love about the future planning for major sites is what 0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:14.240 if a new course gets built, it's awesome and you're 0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:16.560 just not going to have any holes. But by the way, 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:19.920 I think there's a hole. Maybe is twenty eight open 0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:21.040 right now? For the Open? 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:23.800 For the Open? I think they've been talking a lot 0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:25.559 about Portmarnock maybe. 0:10:25.360 --> 0:10:26.600 Okay, okay in Ireland. 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:30.440 Yeah, it's interesting, that's controversal to go to Ireland, you know. 0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:33.640 Yeah, Yeah, it's just it's interesting that we live in 0:10:33.679 --> 0:10:36.160 a place where you're hit here hearing about majors in 0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:39.480 like twenty fifty four, and then in three years from now, 0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:40.959 we don't know where the Open is going to be playing. 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:42.560 But again, I think that's how it used to be. 0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:45.040 I'm assuming is you probably didn't really know the venue 0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:46.679 until a couple of years ahead, right. 0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:50.679 No, I mean that's the thing. I feel like it 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:52.560 used to be like a year ahead, you know. 0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:58.080 But now now now he's googling. Now he's googling, so 0:10:58.080 --> 0:11:00.480 he's not paying attention now, PJ probably gon have to 0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:03.040 hoop in here and talk to me about uh, you know, etiquette, 0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:05.800 illegrdia or something. If you're if you're gonna be googling now. 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:10.240 I mean, it's it's fine. He was getting there. 0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:10.760 You could. 0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:13.160 You can tell when the eyes start getting big that 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.240 he's reading. But he was getting there. I could tell 0:11:15.280 --> 0:11:15.880 he was close. 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:17.960 Hey, hey, Peaj, let me ask you a question. How's 0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:19.560 your life right now? How are you doing? 0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:20.160 You know? 0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:22.160 I'm doing great. I had a great day out in 0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:24.160 the links. Got to play some golf this morning. He 0:11:24.280 --> 0:11:24.600 was great. 0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:25.640 Where'd you play? 0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:27.080 Peach played wing foot today? 0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:27.440 I played? 0:11:27.880 --> 0:11:29.720 Oh I was supposed to play in that thing? But 0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:32.200 I had ad a CBS show this morning. Andy. It's 0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:34.520 the show that still comes up as the DVR as 0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:37.640 y'all's old show, which cracks me up. We've told him 0:11:37.679 --> 0:11:40.280 a few times that they could adjust that, so maybe 0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:41.680 we'll get it adjusted by summer. 0:11:41.760 --> 0:11:45.960 But from family members about it, they're. 0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:47.520 Like, where are you on the show, and you're like, no, 0:11:47.679 --> 0:11:48.280 not my show. 0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:52.280 Hey, congrats on your new show, The Scorecard. 0:11:52.600 --> 0:11:53.599 Yeah, thank you, thank you. 0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:56.880 Yeah, it's been a sports network. It's on on Saturdays 0:11:56.880 --> 0:11:58.360 and Sundays, right. 0:11:58.280 --> 0:12:02.720 Yeah, so it'll be after the signature events coming going forward. 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:04.839 We just did one. Joe Musso and I do it, 0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:08.840 Wagner does it, Emmelman comes on, Cold Nosed Pops on 0:12:08.880 --> 0:12:10.120 I think a Man is gonna come on every now 0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:14.120 and again as well. But it's beast. It's basically just 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:17.320 right when the golf INDs on CBS, will be up 0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:20.959 on Paramount Plus. It's on YouTube as well. It's kind 0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:23.160 of you know, it's kind of across the board. But yeah, 0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:24.960 it was fun. I mean, Wags was out there recreating 0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:29.280 golf shots. We got the challenge Trevor about the wind. Yeah, 0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:32.240 he actually he didn't hit the shot. Perfectly like Scotty 0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:33.640 did out of the trees. I know you probably didn't 0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:35.719 watch a lot of golf last weekend, but he hit 0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:37.960 the second one twenty feet. I was very impressed. 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:40.920 We actually did. We got it, We got it going. 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:44.520 We were watching the Sky's telecast. But you know one 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:48.280 spot we jumped in in St. Andrews that I didn't 0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:52.600 know St Andrews needed t squared. The tiger Woods justin 0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:53.760 Timberlake collaborate. 0:12:53.880 --> 0:12:57.160 Where is it? Where is it a cigar war? No, 0:12:57.360 --> 0:12:58.719 it's preposterous. 0:12:59.040 --> 0:13:03.559 It's so it's so absurd. It's just built for tourists. 0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:05.400 It's wait, where is it? What's it? 0:13:05.840 --> 0:13:10.320 So it's right by you know where the Greyfriars in is. 0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:14.600 It's like it's like three blocks from the old course. Okay, 0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:16.199 it was in the old movie theater. 0:13:17.080 --> 0:13:21.160 Oh I think the movie that's up past past the 0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:23.679 done Vegan on the left. Yes, oh man, I've been 0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:24.400 at that movie theater. 0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:26.280 So it's in a movie. 0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:31.640 It's this bar, this Tiger Woods adjusted Timberlake collaboration bar, 0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:36.080 which is humorous for you know, their their driving issues. 0:13:38.360 --> 0:13:43.440 But the uh, the place like it has sports on 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:47.720 a movie screen. And then there's simulators. I mean it's 0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:49.160 just like a tourist factory. 0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:50.280 Was it busy? 0:13:50.960 --> 0:13:53.000 No, No, I mean it was it was at like, 0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:58.160 you know, probably thirty percent capacity. When we walked in. 0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:01.240 We just we went in and walked right out. I 0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:04.960 mean I wanted to see the space. 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:07.679 Yeah I could, I could. 0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:08.040 Yeah. 0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:10.600 It was more of a social just to see the 0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:11.600 social scene there. 0:14:11.960 --> 0:14:14.040 Yeah, you want to go. If you're gonna grab a pinet, 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:16.040 you'd prefer to probably go to a little bit more 0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:17.880 historical establishment if you could. 0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:21.120 Would you prefer to go to the T Squared in 0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:23.840 Saint Andrew's or the one right next to Grand Central. 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:27.080 What do you think one in New York? 0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:29.280 Where do you think the vibes are better? I can't 0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:31.440 say I've ever been, but now I kind of need 0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:32.480 to go for science. 0:14:32.520 --> 0:14:35.520 Hey, PJ, listen, I will guarantee you this. If you 0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:38.840 want to go one day, a lovely little little little 0:14:39.160 --> 0:14:41.840 spring afternoon, you let me know and I'll meet you there. 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:44.880 I feel like we're gonna be on do a full report. 0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:46.640 I can do a full report on how it is. 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:49.520 We could take some picks next to maybe some of 0:14:49.280 --> 0:14:52.560 the great images of our two of our two kind 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:55.480 of music and golf heroes, and and you know. 0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:57.720 What we should do. We should get Joseph to lunch 0:14:57.720 --> 0:15:01.400 with the boys, Bacon for lunch at T squared. 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:03.800 So Facon Burgers at T Spiers. 0:15:03.920 --> 0:15:06.240 I think we just I think Squared might. 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:10.200 Be sponsoring this pod very soon. Sign them up, give 0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:11.120 business peat on it. 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:13.000 My sad thing. 0:15:13.160 --> 0:15:16.680 I'm just sad now thinking about this that PJ didn't 0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:18.880 get to go to the Woods a couple months ago 0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:20.920 because they closed down. 0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:25.760 I still can't believe how during during a TG all 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:28.840 night they closed at nine o'clock. The game wasn't even away, 0:15:29.200 --> 0:15:32.840 it wasn't even right. It is right because we went, 0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:33.680 We were there. 0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:36.400 That's tough. That's tough man. That's not knowing your that's 0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:38.840 not knowing your clientele. You got to be open for 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:42.240 the for the fans. Jupe Links locked and loaded. 0:15:42.480 --> 0:15:44.920 You know, but they played the jukee Links matches. It 0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:47.840 was not a Jupe Links match. In their defense, however, 0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:50.480 they do say that they play the jupe Link matches 0:15:50.640 --> 0:15:53.840 with sound on the flyers. They put, oh so you 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:55.720 can hear, you can hear what's going on. 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:57.920 You know. You know what tgl is is is a 0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:01.440 pretty good bar watch. I feel like I think TGL, 0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:03.960 you know, if football is over whatever, I feel like 0:16:04.000 --> 0:16:06.880 TGL is a pretty solid watch at a bar. You 0:16:06.920 --> 0:16:09.320 don't necessarily need the sound to at least just take 0:16:09.360 --> 0:16:10.160 in what's going on. 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:13.480 Now, you know, while we're on it, let's hit some 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:14.520 of the news of the day. 0:16:14.760 --> 0:16:15.880 The biggest news of the day. 0:16:16.000 --> 0:16:17.760 Well, yeah, I have two things. 0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:19.520 I have a different thing. It's the biggest news of 0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:20.720 the day, Shane. 0:16:20.760 --> 0:16:26.440 I'm happy because we've talked fifteen minutes about nothing, and thankfully, 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:29.280 nothing's really going on in the golf world right now. 0:16:29.400 --> 0:16:30.120 This is factual. 0:16:30.360 --> 0:16:31.640 I mean, it's a zuri week. 0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:34.800 I was gonna say, this is I'm surprised you're you 0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:36.920 should be like a pig and shit with this field. 0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:39.280 This is the worst field I think I've ever seen. 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:42.000 This is the field that is going to radicalize me 0:16:42.240 --> 0:16:46.760 because this is abhorrent. This is a disgusting event, disgusting. 0:16:47.320 --> 0:16:50.000 It's not going to exist anymore. You can't have a 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:53.840 cutthroat tour and hand out exceptions for a partner event. 0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:55.760 Hey, can I ask can I I'll ask both of 0:16:55.760 --> 0:16:57.960 you guys this. I post this question today on our 0:16:58.000 --> 0:17:01.359 on our on our show with a with Patrick McDonald 0:17:01.440 --> 0:17:04.679 and I and I think it's a decent take. Since 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:07.639 they give out full PGA tour wins for the Zurich 0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:10.200 right now, and the fact that it is likely going 0:17:10.320 --> 0:17:13.320 to go away, why wouldn't Rory and Scotty play in 0:17:13.359 --> 0:17:16.200 this together and both get a win, like just be 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:18.800 like whatever, We'll just win and it goes on and 0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:20.520 just add to their total, right. 0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:23.680 I think they value weeks at home. 0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:28.440 Tour win all right, Well it seems like everybody does, 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:31.280 because I think the biggest indictment out of this whole thing, 0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:34.960 no Hoyguards just can't pack it up. Cancel this event. 0:17:35.040 --> 0:17:38.359 If you can't even get the Hoyguards, we don't need the. 0:17:38.600 --> 0:17:42.000 Fitzies are there now? Come on, the Fitzies are blocked 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:42.439 and loaded. 0:17:42.560 --> 0:17:44.439 Well, you know Alex is a winner now, So I 0:17:44.440 --> 0:17:47.399 guess that that does change the prop on that I 0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:48.200 get a little bit. 0:17:48.560 --> 0:17:51.879 I'm personally a big fan of the Jonathan Bird chez. 0:17:51.720 --> 0:17:55.240 Revi oh Man, I loved that one. I loved that 0:17:55.240 --> 0:17:57.280 one so much. Do you know what brought We brought 0:17:57.320 --> 0:17:59.840 that up today and Patrick McDonald on our show said, 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:03.840 Chez Revey has a win more recent than Speed on 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:08.400 the PGA Tour that way, Yeah, that's bad. He was 0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:12.480 Chez won the Kudah a few years ago, more recently 0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:15.720 than it was the twenty two Kudah. Yeah. Then Speed's 0:18:15.760 --> 0:18:18.600 one on the PGA Tour, which is so wild. 0:18:18.920 --> 0:18:23.040 You tied this all back together for me, Shane, because 0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:27.960 Brendan and I were in Saint Andrews when Chez won 0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:32.600 the Coudah. It was the week of the Open in 0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:35.640 twenty two and we went on Saturday night. 0:18:35.680 --> 0:18:38.120 We stumbled into the woods. 0:18:38.160 --> 0:18:40.960 You went to the Timberlake and Tiger Place or no. 0:18:41.160 --> 0:18:43.719 We later found out as like the student union. 0:18:44.119 --> 0:18:45.000 Okay, it was a bar. 0:18:45.160 --> 0:18:45.520 It was. 0:18:45.560 --> 0:18:50.159
