The job is done. We can go home now.
What a great, great acceptance speech by Jokic. Maybe the most Serbian thing ever.
He's just like, okay, in the words of Kevin Durant, I don't want to be a star, go to work, go home, FaceTime my horses, and hop in the pool. Yes, it was incredible watching Jokic reach the final boss, his finals MVP.
He actually, when he was getting awarded the finals MVP, he, on the podium, he then picked up his daughter and just left the finals MVP on the podium. And Bruce Brown, there's a clip of him just picking up being like, what do I do with this? He was so dominant.
And then afterwards, basically was the most relatable guy ever where he's like, I'm just tired. I want to go home.
They broke the news to him that he had a parade this Thursday. And you thought you had told him someone had died in his family because he was just like, oh, I can't go home yet.
I can't go see my horses. He also had an all-time quote where he said, we succeeded in our jobs.
We won the whole thing. It's an amazing feeling, but like I said before, it's not everything in the world.
There's a bunch of things that I like to do. Probably that's a normal thing.
Nobody likes his job, or maybe they do. They're lying, but it's a good feeling.
It's a good feeling to be the best at your job, even if you don't like it. Yeah.
I think he, honestly, if he was, I think he has a quote in the past where it's like, if he was just doing horses for his job, he probably would be dreaming about playing basketball. Instead, he's playing basketball for his job, dreaming about being with his horses.
He just wants to look at horses. Yeah.
They they should fly his horses over the horses should be in in the parade i think we talked about that last week yes they should pull the floats behind them let yokich ride behind his horses take them down whatever the main avenue in denver is and let the let the let the fans celebrate now aaron gordon had a completely different reaction than yokich did which was I mean, he's been through a lot of shit in the NBA. A lot of people called him a bust.
He was kind of thrown aside for a while. He is just so excited to be a champion.
He joined the big celebration outside the ball arena and started partying with the fans afterwards. I could see it's like that old saying, like there are two wolves inside of each and every one of us.
Those are the two wolves's like at one point you want to celebrate doing something great on the other hand you just kind of once you reach a certain age and i imagine that yokich lugging his body around all the time he's tired he gets tired yeah it's everybody just wants to go home at some point put on a movie and fall asleep in the first 20 minutes yeah and he finished mission accomplished he uh incredible incredible playoffs he averaged 30 13 and a half and nine and a half assists so uh very close to a triple double average he is the first player in nba history to uh lead the postseason and points rebounds and assists crazy like he was absolutely out of this world good deserves all the praise he is the best player on the planet. I know that we do that after every NBA finals.
We're like, whoever won it. Embiid won MVP.
Yeah, Embiid did win MVP. He's probably very happy about that.
But Jokic took that MVP. I don't even think he cared.
But we can make the argument. He took that and he built himself off of it.
And he was like, I'm going to go win the thing that actually matters. Uh, the NBA finals, the NBA finals, MVP.
He was so incredible. He also, and we'll talk about the whole game and, and, and the, and Jimmy Butler, which we have to bring up, uh, and be Eric Jokic.
I think now goes down is the best value pick in NBA history. Without a doubt I was looking through it the other second rounders

that you could that you could throw in the conversation Yoke is better than all these guys Draymond Green was a second rounder Manu was a second rounder Marc Gasol Dennis Rodman even though that was the 27th pick so a little smaller of a league and Ben Wallace was undrafted and then And if you want to actually do like value picks,

Kawhi was the 15th pick.

John Stockton was 16. Kobe was 13.
Karl Malone was 13. Tony Parker was 28th.
And then if you even... So he's a better value than all these because he went 41st overall in the draft.
The only ones you can make an argument for would be Steve Nash who went 15th. So that's obviously outside the lottery.
He ended up winning a couple MVPs. And then Giannis is the other one who went 15th and won MVPs in a finals.
But Jokic, it's clear. He is the greatest value pick in the history of the NBA.
I actually disagree with that, Big Cat. You say Jordan 3? Michael Jordan picked third overall.
I still think Michael not being picked first overall yes and what he did becoming the best player of all time that's a better value pick at three but yokich he can tell you what if yokich wins two more like i fully expect and demand that he does i think that he would then surpass mj on that list just in terms of value it's crazy just because in the nba second round picks like the you're you're hoping you're taking a flyer on a guy hoping he ends up – I would say the majority of second-round picks don't end up on an NBA roster for more than a year at most. A lot of them don't even make the team.
Jokic is the best player in the world, and he was the 41st pick overall. It's a credit to – there's one guy in the Nuggets facility.
I would love to know his name. I'm sure diehard Nuggets fans know him.
There's one guy who definitely saw Jokic first and spent his life mission trying to convince everyone else in Denver, being like, we have to draft this guy. And that guy probably sucks at the rest of his job.
Because Jokic was not – nobody saw that in Jokic at the time. Well, no, there's one guy who did.
But he probably saw – and this is very relatable to anybody that's ever watched any sort of prospect at any age,

and you see them do one awesome thing during a game that you happen to be tuned into,

and then you can't get that out of your head for the rest of their career,

and you wait for them to recapture that one player repeatedly and repeatedly and repeatedly so that you can be correct.

He probably watched one game, saw one bit of footwork or a great behind-the-head pass that he made made and said, it's worth taking a flyer on this guy. And he happened to be right.
You just described Tyrus Thomas run with LSU and big baby Davis jumping out of the gym. Yep.
And like this guy. Yep.
How could he fail? That was, that was a great team. Yeah.
But you're right. Like those one moments where you stick to it and you're like, man, this guy's incredible.
And for Jokic, it turned out to be true. And he is – I get why he's not a bigger star when you see his answers after winning the NBA title.
He's just like, I want to go home. But I think it's very relatable.
And he's very – like even the way he talks about his teammates, and I know this is very cliche because this is like a hockey meme in real life, but you never hear him saying I. He's talking about his teammates.
He's giving his teammates all the credit, talking about how great Jamal Murray was, which he was phenomenal. And Jamal Murray gets his entire path and all the injuries he went through and everything to get back to this point.
Coach Cal kind of off the hot seat for a minute because that is a championship that is a championship absolutely but the whole the whole team is it's the it's the official death of super teams as well yeah we declare that because they they out heat cultured heat culture and we had uh we don't count the bubble year but 2019 the raptors uh you could make the argument the warriors you know without kevin durant getting injured the Warriors might win that title. But since the bubble, you had the Bucs, not a super team.

You had last year the Warriors, who were different than what they were when they won all those titles, not a super team. And then this year the Nuggets, mostly homegrown, super teams don't play anymore.
We had a decade of super teams. It's over.
Ring chasing is done. You've got to build it the right way.

Sorry, gold diggers.

Yeah.

The Nuggets are in town.

Fun little stat here.

In the modern NBA, and I'll just take this back, too.

I think it's the Bulls.

So the Bulls' first title run.

The Nuggets are, I believe, that they are the second biggest long shot

to win the NBA championship. You know who the first was or who the longest shot was? Pistons? No, the Nuggets are not the second.
I think they weren't that long of a shot. I misspoke.
They were plus 1,800 when the season started. Okay.
But the biggest long shot in, we'll call it the common error here, was the Golden State Warriors. Oh, 2015.
In 2014, 2015, they were plus 2,800. A team with jump shooting can't win a title.
They can't. Charles Barkley.
I hope that scouts now, like the pendulum swings completely in the other way and we have scouts over in Europe trying to draft like the least athletic fat guys. Yeah.
And one day they might blossom to the next Jokic. Now, we aren't saying this, but some people might say it, and we do discuss everything about sports.
Some people are trying to put an asterisk because they had maybe the easiest path of all time. I think if the Clippers had beaten the Suns, they would have had the easiest path possible for a one seed.
The Celtics would have smoked this team. That's true.
But yeah, they played, I think it was a cumulative 27 in seeding, 27 in seeding. So it was, you know, an eight seed in the Heat, a seven seed in the Lakers, a four seed in the Suns, and an eight seed in their first round matchup against Tim Rose.
I'm not saying this, because I think the Nuggets would have beaten anyone. They were the best team this year.
They have the best player in the world. Some are saying it.
Now, credit to Skip Bayless, who will never stop fucking that chicken, but he said that if the Lakers had made it to the finals, they would have swept the heat. It would have been an easier matchup for the Lakers.
He also said that Embiid's a more physically imposing player. Like, to look at? Yeah, I guess so.
Yeah, I would probably agree. He could put to his mvp it's uh it's actually a basketball game though and not just a physically imposing look off yes and which is a key mistake a lot of pundits make he's so much fun to watch he's just the way he plays how he gets everyone involved he is the zone beater they would just pass to him and he just he always there's sometimes when yokich is – you want him to shoot more because he'll make, like, the extra pass to a point where it's like, dude, just shoot it.
You can shoot. You can make every shot.
He was just out of this world good for the entire last two months. Yep.
He deserves all the credit. Michael Malone, he was actually on the hot seat a year or two ago.
He's now an NBA champion. Denver, first time ever.
The Nuggets have won an NBA championship. Or been in an NBA championship.
Yeah, they were in an ABA, I believe. Stan Kroenke, goat owner.
We were the first to say it, but he now has the Rams, the Avalanche, the Nuggets, and the Mammoth. And Arsenal being in first place three-fourths of the season.
Arsenal, I'm pretty sure, won the EPL. Yeah, so that— I stopped checking the table.
He is the GOAT owner. He's won every title, basically.
Also, it's disrespectful to the LA Gorillas, who finished first place in Call of Duty. Oh, nice.
He owns them? Yeah, I believe so. Is that what you're about to say, Hank? No, it was not what I was about to say.
Shout out to LAG. Celtics in six? Celtics probably would have won in six, but also this show has now lost five championships in a row.
Yeah. That's tough.
It's tough. Celtics, Phillies, Eagles.
Well, yeah. Celtics, Phillies, Eagles, Heat, and potentially the Panthers.
Damn. Wow.
So four in a row.

Well, actually, and then all the way back to the Celtics.

You started it with Celtics.

Yeah, yeah.

Because I was about to say it all coincides with when Max joined the show.

Kind of interesting to think about that.

Well, Celtics were before.

Yeah.

Kind of.

So, yeah, that's a bad run for us.

It's a terrible run for us.

But again, me and PFT are really carrying our weight here. I've never lost a championship yep neither have i haven't lost a championship in a while now feels pretty good to be a winner it feels really good to be a winner we're such losers that we're actually bigger winners than you guys yeah how about that and if i had the fire fest back in january i accidentally bet them to win the championship and that ended up cashing so yeah huge huge it just accidentsidents happen, and sometimes they work out.
It just feels good to be right about something for a change. You know, it so rarely happens in sports when you're correct about something, and you see it coming, and you're not a total dumbass.
So I'm not going to take a victory lap, but I will just say that I'm proud of my Nuggets. I'm proud of them.
I'm not going to take a victory lap because I did a Fyre Fest segment about how I was upset about how i accidentally put them to win the championship yeah yeah it was accident um but it worked out after the game yokich you'll never see an nhl player do this though big cat uh after the game was over he went and he shook every opponent's hand wow before he accepted never never see a hockey player do that oh we should also talk about stan kronke just not understanding how a microphone works oh yeah no he just was all he was he was basically had his tongue in lisa salter's ear yeah he was

giving her in-person asmr just getting right in there and it's unfortunate because his uh the one

thing that he's not the best in the world at owning is a toupee yeah because that thing looks

pretty bad he also especially from the side it's also just a very funny visual when a team wins a

championship and the owner gets to lift the trophy first and and it's like a bunch of insane athletes who we've watched go through these battles for the last couple of months, and then you have this old guy come and get all the credit, and you're like, oh, okay, he has nothing in common with the rest of these people. This belongs to me.
Yeah. He also got to hang out with Jeff Fisher for like 12 years, so he's a very, very cool guy.
That is true. The Nuggets went 16-4 in the playoffs.
Just absolutely dominant. And if you look at their roster, I saw when Michael Malone, when he got on the mic after the game, and he, right after the game was over, goes, our work's not done.
We can win more. Yes.
Like, I want to win more. He listens to this show.
He listens to the show. They need to win at least three in order to be considered true champions in our book because they've got Jokic and Aaron Gordon, who are both 27.
Murray is 25 years old. Michael Porter Jr., who actually stepped up in the last game.
Yeah, he did. After having a shitty series before that.
Never taken a three in rhythm. He's 24.
So they've got a good young core. And bruce brown said after the game that he wants to stick around sometimes money isn't the most important thing that sounds like a drunk thing to say after winning a championship it also sounds like when you win a championship i bet you that's the last moment that your agent wants you to do contract negotiations yeah i'm looking up bruce brown's contracts over the years total earnings because it is also very easy to say that money is not the most important thing once you've made money yeah right that's absolutely true but yeah it's it's that is i would say the last time that you want to the last moment that you could pick in negotiating windows is right after a championship when everything is awesome okay so he's made he's made 15 million dollars which is a good amount of money could use some money good amount of money uh but he probably could get paid a lot more money somewhere else this offseason yes so who knows what's going to happen with him but the the core is so young that man who knows not five not six not seven shout out christian brown going back to back yeah back to back he joins the ranks joins the ranks of Bill Russell, Magic Johnson.
Who else? I don't know. That's probably it.
That's probably one we're missing. It's obvious that people are going to be like, how could you forget this person? I've got a spin zone for you, Jake.
I've got one too. Sorry about your heat.
I'm sorry that you had to go through that. However, Dame Lillard said that he wanted to go to whichever team did not win the reverse because he doesn't want to be seen as a ring chaser he did yeah he did exactly that he did so he want dame wants to pull a kd he uh kind of alluded to the fact that he would be okay with joining the heat so maybe maybe by losing this nba finals you've given yourself an opportunity to get dame lillard and maybe get back to an nba finals yeah listen it's the most attractive free agent destination so just come just come just come there you go put on a quote card i'm gonna come yep uh so jake the heat lost uh jimmy butler faded let's say that he faded bad.
As good as he was in the Eastern Conference playoffs, he was just as bad. He was not good in the finals.
That's going to suck if you're a Celtics fan watching that, huh? Yeah. This guy just killed us.
Did you look up Caleb Martin and Gabe Vincent shooting this series? No. I watched one game.
Okay. All right.
And Max Struess. Yeah.
Yeah, none of them were good. None of none of them were good yeah the heat kind of turned into a pumpkin it's more credit to the nuggets and their defense was was they picked it up big time in the finals but jimmy ran out of gas he had an incredible playoffs but he just like even even in game five i don't know with like maybe five minutes left i think he had eight points or something.
He went on a little bit of a tear there. He's for the last 13.
Yeah, last gasp. He's like two of 11 from the field or something.
And despite Scott Foster's best efforts to extend the series, that foul that they called on Michael Porter Jr., was it Porter or was it Aaron Gordon? He kicked Aaron Gordon in the balls. In the nuts, yeah.
He got all ball on that one, and they called a foul. They reviewed it.
I think everybody in America thought, okay, they're going to reverse this call because that's just Jimmy kicking somebody the nuts. And then it turns out that the guy in the replay booth was none other than Scott Foster.
So Scott Foster, even though he wasn't on the court, he was perhaps more impactful. So the Nuggets beat six guys they beat six guys they beat they beat the heat

they beat scott scott was trying to extend it so this just proves our point that scott foster

he's washed yeah he's washed he doesn't have the same impact he tried his hardest but he couldn't

do it he couldn't get the job done extending the series but jake i do agree with you that

the heat they're a great fit for a guy that you would want to be on the heat i think there are

probably some players out there that are you know near the top of the list in the NBA that probably wouldn't want to go play in Miami because they do things like weigh you all the time, and that sucks. But the kind of guy that you would want on the team would be somebody that would want that type of environment to go win a championship.
Yeah, we talk about on the show work-life balance. Work-work balance.
You can have fun. Work-work is what we talk about.
It's a great place to work. We do work it's a great place to work we do work work balance around work work Hank almost had to do work work and it was the scariest moment of his life destination for that yeah it is yeah uh I I would like to see Dane play in Miami I think he'd be a good fit on that team why not yeah why not but why not Jimmy Butler probably hurt I don't want to make excuses.
I'm just going to say he sucked in the final.

You shouldn't be on the court if that's going to be an excuse.

But we probably will get an update in a couple weeks being like,

oh, Jimmy Butler turns out that he had eight ligaments torn in his ankle.

And I still love Jimmy Butler.

He's, you know, I don't know if superstar, but he's in the star category,

top 15 player.

But if you.

Yeah, about there.

Yeah, if you say he was so great in the Eastern Conference Finals, he deserves to get criticized for not being there in the finals. That's part of the job.
He had – if they were to hang banners on best Eastern Conference playoff performances ever, he's probably number one. I think they should hang a banner for that.
Put it right next to the MJ banner in Miami. Just dismantled the Celtics.
Yeah, absolutely. Listen, two months ago, they were two minutes away of getting eliminated against the Bulls in the play-in game.
I don't like how you're dealing with this. I'm just saying.
That's fine. They were not supposed to be here.
It was anticlimactic. It didn't feel like...
I mean, obviously, the game was in doubt with a minute left, but I don't think the series was ever in doubt. And Jimmy did say that he's not going to go to his Hall of Fame induction.
Okay. So just that's a heads up.
Okay. He doesn't care about that kind of stuff.
I will cancel my hotel. Yep.
Yep. So you won't be there.
He would have called you out as your number, his number one hater. Number one hater.
Yes. Motivator.
Yes. Or your marketing team.
One last thing before we talk hockey. The quote that we saw, it just passed our desk while we were recording.
Nikola Jokic is the best guy ever because he said, talking about the doubters, the haters, of which there are many, They didn't believe in the fat boy. It seems like it worked out.
Don't bet against the fat boy. Sounds like a recap of Oppenheimer.
Yeah, there you go. Nailed it.
But I might get this as a tattoo. It's a good tattoo.
Don't bet against the fat boy. Just don't do it.
Don't right across my stomach. You know what? I'm going to say Jokic, not fat at all.
Used to be. Used to be fat.
He was the fat boy. Was fat, but fat, he had a glow up.
Yeah. He was the fat boy.
Now he's a little man. Yeah.
Now he's fucking awesome. He's a big, big man.
Jake, did you want to also say the wild? You had a crazy wild last night. Oh, yeah.
There was a picture of Jokic when he was a kid. Five.

Yeah, he was wearing a fat boy.

He was a fat boy.

He was wearing what?

Denver Nugget shirt.

That's awesome.

It is wild.

In Serbia.

Yeah.

To have like.

Yeah.

What are the odds?

Yeah.

He wasn't wearing like a Knicks or Bulls.

Big international brand.

Right.

Yeah.

What was that like?

Probably the Mutombo era?

Marcus Camby?

Maybe probably too early for Marcus Camby.

Unfortunately, we got to remember that we're old.

Yeah, we are.

So this was like 2000, 2001.

So maybe Camby.

Maybe.

Yeah, yeah.

That works.

But either way, wild.

Shout out Birdman.

Yeah.

It warmed my heart last night to see all the pictures of Birdman floating across the timeline.

Yes, yes.

The Nuggets are number one.

All right.

We have to crown another champion. The Las Vegas Golden Knights.
Stanley Cup champions. Our Knights.
Our Knights. We jumped on the bandwagon because Alec Martinez, who scored in this game, AWL.
I mean, it's pretty crazy the fact that they've won a Stanley Cup. It obviously went against your caps.
But how long have they been a franchise? What, six years? That was their first year. It would have been 2018.
It's incredible. I mean, to be in two Stanley Cup finals in that time, 2017 was when they founded.
What a way to cement hockey in the desert. This is what the Coyotes never could do.
And what a great, great city to win a Stanley Cup in. They're going to have such a good time hanging out afterwards.
You don't have to go to Vegas. You're already there.
You're in Vegas already. I hope the Panthers score one more goal because that way we can say Alec Martinez, Stanley Cup winning goal.
Yeah, because it's 6-1 right now as we're taping it. We're calling it.
The exit polls are in. Las Vegas Golden Knights are your Stanley Cup champions.
Incredible run. I think maybe Whitney might have said watch out for the Knights before the playoffs started.
He took like every team. Yeah, he took every team, but I'm going to give him credit.
Yeah, this is a big win for the South. Big win for the South.
Las Vegas, one of our biggest Southern markets. Deep South.
I love the golden jerseys that they wear. Yes.
And they're jerseys that if they sucked, they would look completely awful. They would be like the worst jerseys in sports if they were not a good team.
But because they're good in the golden jerseys, it's incredible. Yeah.
So, Jake, you're a double loser. Yeah, Max.
How do you deal with this? Two? Yeah, well, you did. Max actually lost in the same day twice.
So he least back yeah i know but he though he lost two championships in the same day forget about the union oh yeah forgot about the work for business insiders yeah philly so max what's the move here uh you know you just kind of have to eat it for the rest of your life or the rest of your time on this show uh you get called a loser every time you walk out out the, even though you did a lot of winning, but it makes you feel weird. That's loser talk.
No, that's loser talk. You guys are the biggest losers here.
Hey, Jake, did you get shut out in the last game? No. Did you have any hits tonight? Let me see.
How many hits did the Panthers – have they had any hits? Let's see. Looking up the box score right now.
This is going to be big. Yes, they've had hits tonight, so you did not get no hit.
That's nice. It's tough, though.
Double loser. You had a magical spring in South Florida, and it comes to a screeching halt.
But, hey, second place to second place. You sound pretty down in your dumps.
Yeah. Was this a failure? No.
Yeah. Eight seeds? You got to – you're there to win a title.
You're there to win a title. Yeah.
There to win a title. I mean, you have to go back and look and think to yourself, the Bruins definitely would have beaten the Knights.
Yeah. Yeah, I mean, if we actually – I'd say the biggest takeaway from these playoffs is the BruinsCeltics would have won.
But the Heat and Panthers eliminated that. Look at the teams.
Right, Hank? You want to have a guy off? The Celtics, yeah. Bruins lost so long ago.
It's tough to make that argument. That does feel like 10 years ago.
You were younger when they lost. It's true.
That's true. Wow.
It is true. Okay.
So congrats to Golden Knights. We're going to try to maybe get someone from the team.
Alec Martinez. If you're listening to this, you're probably not because you're probably drunk having an awesome time with the Stanley Cup.
But we will reach out and hopefully have him on for Friday's show. We're going to say, Billy, you had something.
Just wanted to promo some of our July 4th merch. Yes! Good call, Billy!

I'm rocking an amazing

July 4th t-shirt. It's

got Teddy Roosevelt on Allosaurus

with a gun and a big stick and it just says

America. Is that a real photo? Yeah, that's a

real photo. It looks like a T-Rex to me.
No, no, it's an

Allosaurus. Are you sure? Very different.

Very different. Okay.
I specifically asked for

an Allosaurus. Alright.
I think they just drew

a T-Rex. Yeah, they said Billy wants it.

Dude, Billy wants a T-Rex.

You can tell by the crest. You can tell by the

Thank you. Very different.
Okay. I specifically asked for an allosaurus.
All right. I think they just drew a T-Rex.
They said Billy wants a T-Rex. Dude, that's a T-Rex.
You can tell by the crest. You can tell by the crest.
No, that's a T-Rex. No, allosaurus is just so much cooler.
Teddy Roosevelt riding a T-Rex. What could be cooler than that? That is just America.
You would be a gatekeeping dinosaur guy. No, well, fucking PFT gatekeeps planes.
Yeah, because you don't know shit about planes, Billy. You don't know shit about dinosaurs.
Tell me, Billy, your facts about planes are fraudulent. You do planes are fraudulent.
No, you don't know anything about airplanes. Whatever, dude.
I grew out of planes in fifth grade. You grew out of planes? What are you wearing, Max? I'm wearing the same thing as you.
This is part of my take. Look at the back over there over there.
Mount Rushmore. The Mount Rushmore.
The best shirt that you can wear for 4th of July. By far the best shirt you can wear for 4th of July.
They really hooked it up with the facial hair on that Mount Rushmore, didn't they? Yeah, stored up barstoolsports.com. We have everything.
There's some cool new American flag jackets that look awesome. We got some new hats.
Everything. So buy now because the summer's here.
It's time for July 4th, one of the best holidays on the calendar. So go to store.barstoolsports.com.
Great reminder, Billy. Okay, let's do Hot Seat Cool Throne.
There's making a sandwich and then there's crafting a sandwich. And when I want something perfectly crafted, I go straight to Boar's Head.
For over a century, Boar's Head has been dedicated to crafting premium deli favorites. Every ingredient is carefully chosen, every recipe made with a purpose.
Their oven gold turkey, smoked master ham, and ever roast chicken are made from premium whole cuts, hand trimmed, and perfectly seasoned. Last weekend, I made the ultimate sandwich, oven gold turkey, cheese, pickles, and mustard.
Simple, but unbelievable. so next time you're at the deli don't settle get the best boar's head committed to craft since 1905 discover the craftsmanship behind every bite at boarshead.com okay hot seat cool thrown hank my hot seat is the bill's dynasty stefan diggs uh no showed for offseason training program.
They asked McDermott about it and he said he was concerned about it, very concerned about it, and he seemed very upset about the fact that Stefan Diggs just no-showed. So did he no-show or did he show and then no-showed? I believe he no-showed.
I thought that he showed up and then he just left. I think his agent said he was there.
For the first time since Diggs joined the team in 2020, he skipped the entire off-season program, which is the article I read. Damn.
Now, was that the article that you read or was that the headline that you read? This is from an article. Is it a headline from an article? Nope, this is inside of the actual article, which is inside of a blog.
Have the Bills been in touch with Baby Diggs? Who's that? He's Baby Gronk's rival. I don't know.
Yeah. If you haven't seen highlight tape of Baby Diggs, it's electric.
He's pretty much the most average looking like eight-year-old boy just catching balls in his front yard. I like that.
I want to see more baby athletes. I want to see a baby Rodrigo Blankenship.
Yeah. I think we should leave the little kids out of it.
Well, no, Baby Diggs wanted it.

Baby Diggs called him out.

Baby Diggs called Baby Gronk out.

When you say Baby Diggs, it sounds like you're saying something else.

Confession, I still have no idea who these guys are.

I know you guys did a segment on it.

I still don't understand their importance.

That's probably a good thing that you don't.

Yeah.

You guys should.

I mean, Baby Diggs is electric. Yeah, I know.
With the EFT. It's a little thing that you don't yeah uh you guys should i mean you should baby digs electric yeah no with the ft it's a little too close yeah baby digs yeah look at this baby digs baby digs are electric um one-on-one baby digs are gronk or baby gronk and what and what kind of drill uh catching look i'm going to show you a quick highlight of Baby Diggs.
You give me your instant reaction.

Okay.

He's that electric.

Let me see him.

Let's see.

Hold on.

It's coming up.

It's coming up.

Is he watching?

There's Baby Diggs.

Oh, I'd beat the shit out of him.

No, Baby Diggs.

Yeah, no.

Beast.

I would beat him up.

Monster.

I would womp him.

Look at this.

You see him one-handed catching his front yard?

Yeah, smack him in the mouth.

Well, Big Diggs is owed 24.

Oh, Big Diggs.

Big Diggs energy?

He's owed $24 million in 2023. They're not going to be able to trade him, so they've got to make it work.
Sounds like it's not working out. No, I'll be fine.
I just feel, you know, the Bills, unbelievable run. This ain't getting his AFC East.
We're getting back to football. It's good to have football talk back.
It's true, though. It's like, you know, and they have the Madden curse to worry about.
Yeah, it's not an ideal situation that you'd want to have in Buffalo. And they have Aaron Rodgers.

Maybe they're looking at Hopkins.

The Patriots to Hopkins rumors are buzzing.

The whole team is going to go to Hopkins.

It doesn't make any sense to me.

If you were DeAndre Hopkins and you wanted to play with a great quarterback,

why would you want to go play New England right now?

Because Belichick is the best quarterback there is. Belichick is.
He is? Okay. I think he's, as a quarterback, you think he's the best quarterback? Yeah.
What happened last year? They had a defensive coach as their offensive coordinator. Who hired the defensive coach to be the offensive coordinator? The best quarterback ever.
Robert Kraft. This is why you shouldn't let quarterbacks hire their own offensive coordinators.
Is Bill Belichick going to potentially play this year? He should. Best quarterback ever.
I mean, yeah, it's his system, and his system created the greatest. So he's a system QB.
Tom Brady is. No, Belichick's a system quarterback too, because it's Belichick, the head coach's system.
But Belichick made the system? Did he create the system? Yes. Is the system sentient? Is the system taken over? Can he no longer control the system? No, it's his system.
Okay. He runs the system.
So he could turn off the system when he wants to? Yeah. Okay.
I mean, AI's in the news. You've got to be careful.
Probably should have tweaked the algorithm last year against the Raiders. I mean, that was, yeah, whatever.
Okay, so Hank has buried the Bills. No, I'm just saying they're on the hot seat.
The Bills dynasty is on the hot seat. Okay.
I think they'll be fine. Josh Allen has his back.
You mean how you say that. That's all I know is Josh Allen says that's my fucking guy.
I've got his back through thick and through thin. I think they'll be fine.
Diggs was

trashing him at the end of the last season, too.

It's tough to see. I feel bad.
Love Josh.

Love Bill's mafia. No, it doesn't sound like you do, because

you keep calling him a dynasty.

I mean, they're the darlings.

They're the media darlings. They're the fan darlings.

I think they were the odds-on favorite last year.

If not, then they were.

Odds-on, no.

Odds-on, no.

Odds-off? Yeah, odds-off. Odds- on would be like they were minus 100 to win the Super Bowl.
I feel like they were. And then my cool throne, this could have been a hot seat.
Could have put Dad and all the other big cat and all the other dads on the hot seat. But Peyton Hillis on the cool throne.
Yes. He was on Good Morning America.
I haven't had the chance yet. I hope that day doesn't come.
But why would you put me on the hot seat but peyton hillis on the cool throne yes uh he was on good morning america i haven't had the chance yet hope that doesn't that day doesn't come but why would you put me on the hot seat for that it's just a it's he so peyton hillis uh heroically rescued his son and his niece uh in from from drowning and had to get rushed to the hospital had basically kidney failure from going as hard as he could to to save the lives uh almost i mean we talked about it when it happened but he was in like critical condition when it happened it's a crazy story it's a crazy story you should definitely watch it if you haven't uh but he's he's made a recovery he went on good morning america he said that i'm not a hero i call myself a dad yeah so that's just that and uncle yeah i mean like yeah because if you read the story he had to swim past his son to save his niece first because he knew his niece was in more trouble and then come back and get his son he might be number one uncle he's a better uncle than he is dad yeah he's number one uncle in the world also that hank you just proved yourself wrong madden curse doesn't exist then so josh allen will fine. Peyton Hillis, who could forget his Madden cover? One of the best.
That still doesn't make any sense. What? That he was on the cover.
You want a hero like that? He was unreal that one year. Yeah.
No. I mean, well-deserved.
Didn't he beat the Patriots? Yeah. On the what? Yeah.
On the Browns. In the regular season? Yeah, in the regular season with.
Who cares, Billy? You're walking into one like that. Who gives a fuck? It's a big deal.
It's a big deal to beat the Patriots for any AFC team that doesn't have much playoff success. Hang the banner.
What year was that? It was the off year. 2011.
It was the one without Brady. Yes.

Matt Castle.

All right.

But yeah, great story.

Shout out to Payton Hillis.

Hero.

Dad.

Hero dad.

Hero dad.

And uncle.

Yep.

All right.

PFT.

My hot seat is Buckingham Palace Guards.

Oh, yeah.

You see the videos of Buckingham Palace Guards training?

They've got like instruments and shit that they're playing.

And they've had multiple members of the Buckingham Palace Guards just pass out in the hot weather, which is if you're a British person, you shouldn't be out in the sun to begin with. But they make these guys stand out in the sun with what looks like a live raccoon on their heads and then wearing their 1776 throwbacks on their bodies that just trap in all the heat and so these dudes that just keep passing out and the band just walks around them and keeps playing that's that's football guy mentality right there i gotta say though 86 degrees is not that hot in britain it is though you have to you have to judge it on a sliding scale anything above over 60 degrees in england is is boiling hot yeah i mean it also it just added added to the effect that he had a trombone.
That is the saddest instrument. Just the whole thing was perfect.
As he was passing out, you think he did the wah-wah. Yeah, wah-wah-wah.
And then my cool throne is Conor McGregor. Conor McGregor is on the cool throne.
I can't believe we didn't talk about this after the last game,

but he was brought out onto the court

at the Heat game.

He was sitting courtside,

and they brought him out

to do some sort of a stunt,

like a fake fight with Bernie.

Is that the Heat mascot name?

Yes.

Bernie.

And part of the stunt was,

okay, Conor, you're going to hit the mascot in the face,

and then he's going to fall down.

McGregor hauled off and jacked him up in his chin, knocked him out, and then went and finished him off on top of him, landed at least one more clean shot to the face, sent the mascot to the ER. The guy actually had to go to the ER.
He's got his power back. Yeah, he's got his power back.
McGregor is officially back. I can't wait to see him step into any ring a win's a win and wins he needed a win big time win and uh one one one like what like three second ko yeah and his old foe floyd mayweather is probably gonna be looking for a different opponent because he's got the gaudy family after goddies are coming after which uh respect respect respect bernie would have been back for game six if there is once oh oh i like that chick bern.
Bernie would have won. That's a great update.
Bernie would have won. All right, I have two hot seats.
My first is for loser simps like Jake Marsh, who think Roger Federer is the best of all time. He is, in fact, not.
Djokovic won the French Open. He has 23 majors.
Majors? Grand Slams. Grand Slams.
He has 23 grand slams. He is the greatest tennis player of all time.
I watched over two games of the match. Sets.
No, I watched games. There's games inside.
I watched three games in the last set. Over two games in the match.
He is the greatest of all time. What a week for Serbia.
Back-to-back days. They have the best basketball player, the best tennis player.
Serbia or Denver? Where would you rather be right now? Serbia. That's why he wants to get home.
Serbia. It's fucking popping in Serbia.
Once the Serbs feel themselves a little bit, a lot of bad shit usually happens. Yeah, they hold the root of...
Yeah. But yeah, what do you...
I hope they don't have a parade in Serbia. It doesn't go well.
What are you thinking, Jake? You speak for all the loser simp, limp dick Federer fans. You don't have a goat.
That's crazy that you asked for a picture with the loser simp. Yeah, and I whispered to him.
I said, hey, fucking Djokovic owns you, bitch. Yeah, not much of a debate anymore.
However, Rafa wasn't in this, and this is his tournament. Who gives a fuck? Rafa just wins all the French Opens.
That's the other thing. I think Djokovic is the first to win each major Grand Slam major three times or more.
That's impressive. No one else has done that.
So he can win on any surface, any time. And he had at least two or three taken away from him because of his COVID vaccination status.
So we're going for 30. We're going to go for 30.
They should introduce a new surface to tennis. What do you think about this?

We have hard clay and grass.

Marshmallow.

Grass.

I was going to say ice.

Oh, I like ice.

I saw a video.

There was like a viral TikTok of like ice pickleball.

And then there's six guys on each team.

Yeah.

There was like people playing pickleball on ice.

And the net's behind the players instead of in front.

I like that.

No, but can you imagine?

See, whenever they have like bouncy ball, like racquetball material.

Yeah. Yeah.
Ice tennis would be fucking awesome. Trampoline tennis.
Put them on skates. Yeah.
Either way. Conor McGregor would be so good at ice tennis.
Djokovic is the goat. He is the goat.
And sad boys like you just crying in your cereal. Oh, yeah.
You're fine. You were crying all Sunday when he won.
He's the best of all time. There's no debate.
He is the greatest, and I can't wait to win more. PFT was saying with the Nuggets, I've been a Djokovic fan for my entire life.
I've watched every single game set, no game, that he's been in. And it feels good to be vindicated that I was right all along.
Congratulations. I feel like I won a major grand did.
Yeah. I did.
My other hot seat is Hank. He's 30.
Happy birthday, Hank. Happy birthday, Hank.
Hank, happy birthday. He's 30 years old.
Damn. I've known him since he was 19.
He is a grown... I've always said that when you turn 30, I will officially feel old.
Turns out I officially felt old like five years ago. but 30 hank yeah uh it feels really old uh something about you know 30 between 29 28 it just feels significantly older than those numbers uh i had a flight back from chicago this morning i was listening to the life episode and that was that was really hitting home just talking about you know your 20s and your 30s i kind of i kind of hope that I'm in the Mark Titus territory where my 20s or my 30s and my 30s are more like my 20s.
Wait, but your 20s were like your 20s. I know your 20s.
Yeah, but like... You were not living your 20s like you were in your 30s.
This is whole like game six is really game seven. Well, no, he's basically saying he wants to have Mark Titus' life, but skipping the part where Titus said that he spent his 20s trying to grow up too fast.
Hank spent his 20s trying to get younger, and now he's going to go to the 30s and try to relive the 20s. I like the strategy.
You should do that, but that's not what Mark Titus did. I think maybe your 20s were more like your teens, Yeah.
And now your 30s are going to be like your 20s.

Well, but even you guys are talking about, I mean, I guess, yeah, I don't know.

It's tough with this job because this job obviously is the greatest job in the world.

But it's a job.

You'd rather be with your horses in Serbia.

Yeah.

And like, you know, you guys talked about like just having a job where you can like fuck off.

Like that's obviously never really been the case here per se.

But yeah, I appreciate all the birthday wishes. I'm excited for chicago i'm excited for for the 30s you know i just i've always felt you know immature and young for my age and working at barstool has always been like yeah well you don't have to grow up because you're working at barstool but i was like you're 30 we are kind of like the lost boy you can't really act like i guess you can but it just feels it just feels different 30 30 30s hit me in the face pretty hard 30 dirty and flirty yeah there you go henry lockwood story i don't know if this applies to how you're feeling hank i i 30 just seems ancient like even at the golf course when i see when i see old guys like when you see you know old guys and golf stuff and and you're like oh those guys are those guys are dinosaurs now i'm I'm like that seems like fun like they're they're living the life yeah when i was 28 and 29 i spent those years like dreading turning 30 yes and then once i turned 30 i was like oh this isn't bad at all because i just spent the last two years worrying about being 30 it turns out i feel the same and you get young again yeah you'll get young again it'll be it'll be okay although it Billy brought this up earlier and it's kind of crazy Hank was Billy's age when he started doing part of my take how about that I was younger yeah wild no when I met Hank Hank was my age I was 22 when this podcast started whoa that's crazy bro wild oh I'm happy for you because you have grown up to be a man i don't not not a responsible man but a man corporate hank yeah corporate hank your lights did just get turned off because you didn't know how to get a utility bill but that's whatever yeah i mean listen i gotta be a little bit more proactive uh you know i've made some bad decisions in my 20s.
I'm going to try and limit those in my 30s, do my best. But you can't win them all.
I'm excited for your 30s. You're going to pop off in your 30s.
Yeah, we're going to kill it. We're going to kill it in Chicago.
Huge decade. Play a lot of golf.
Play a lot of golf. What's crazy is that if you think about time, when part of my started hank was it was it was closer to being when we killed osama bin laden then part of my take is to right now yeah how about that it's true i feel like i am the age when you guys started like i still i'm still ready to grind like when I think about Oh yeah your guys is

when you guys started

in this career

you were

around my age

I am now

and you went hard

for like five or six years

like I'm still ready for that

and then we just gave up

yeah we gave up

that was nice

that was nice

well no I'm saying

I'm saying

I'm talking about like

we grind

it's

I'm gonna say something stupid

yeah you are

yeah

we work harder than you Billy

no I think it's a lot easier

to work hard

when you're your age

okay

I would like to say something stupid. Yeah, you are.
We work harder than you, Billy.

No, I think it's a lot easier to work hard when you're your age.

Okay.

I would love for you to explain that to someone who has three kids at home that has to be home all the time.

Yeah, I said it was going to be stupid.

Yeah, okay.

All right.

It was.

You're right.

You're right.

But Hank gets what I'm saying.

I'll say it's significantly harder.

Because he's like, I'm 30.

I'm ready to grind.

Your life has officially started. I think maybe at 22 maybe, Billy, because you want to go out.
Maybe I could see the argument, but I would still take having no responsibilities outside of work definitely leads to being able to work more. No, definitely stupid what I said.
Yeah. I think what you're saying is that it's more fun to go out and get drunk.
Right. And you have to sacrifice some of that in your 20s.
Correct. And in your 30s, you don't want to go out and get drunk that much.
Right. And I think when you get older, you just don't care as much about, like, the...
I don't know. You don't care about what your peers think.
You don't care about what's going on around you. You're like, I'm just going to do what I like to do.
i like to do which is golf which is called pretty much yeah but uh yeah i appreciate the birthday wishes did you almost say when you get to your 30s you just stop caring about your appearance like you guys is that what you're no i'm saying like i don't know when you're you know you you you get self-conscious i feel like when you're in your younger 20s you're like oh what are my peers doing or like you know you're trying to appear a certain way you're trying to like come off as like cool or whatever and it's like i don't care about that anymore i just want to like do what i want to do it's grinding go hank is so old now that when he started this podcast he was harambe was still alive oh my god 22 also when we started this podcast rombe was still alive yeah no but hank is but hank really hank was no you guys are both about 30 when we started 31 i think we did we we celebrated our 30th birthday together yeah true in arizona and i i thought you were sold that that that one that one that that's the thing that you i guess what it is pastor it's kind of like when it like when you're you know in middle school kids that are seniors in high school seem like they're super super super old and then're a senior in high school and the kids that are in college seem like they're super, super, super, super old. When I was 22 going to that 30th birthday party, I was like, damn, these guys are going hard for 30-year-olds.
The other thing is- They're old as fuck. And now I'm that old and I realize how the young people look at me and I'm like, damn, I am not a kid anymore.
That's where it's like acting like a kid and being immature it's like you're fucking 30 too and as the older you get the uh less like age matt like i consider us kind of the same age now you know what i mean like a 22 like billy's a lot younger than us but anyone over 30 it's like yeah you could be friends with a 30 year old like that's not that's totally normal yeah well i'm excited for you all right my cool throwing is fat randy he's back he's trying out for the broncos love it the world needs more fat randy uh billy yes it wasn't that stupid because i get what you're saying you want to party also but i would i would say that if i had no responsibility i would i would be able to work significantly more although i still work a lot so it I get what you're saying. It's not that stupid.
But it's like, from your point of view, I could totally see like, oh, that's like... No, it's not that stupid.
It could be more spontaneous. It's like Billy's personal sacrifices are occasionally not getting drunk on a Thursday night.
Yeah, that's huge. And that's your service.
That's your day. This sounds really bad.
No, that's huge. No, that's huge.

That's you storming the beach.

Every Thursday night

that you have to work

in the office

until 11.45 at night,

that's your troop.

No, no, that's not what I'm saying.

Like, I don't know.

Like, right now,

we're taping this.

You're like,

you have your kids

and when you go to work,

you're like,

I gotta do this

because it's not just for me.

So that you go hard as fuck.

I don't think like that. I'm hoping that kicks in one day.
Got it. Way down to half.
Tire power, yeah. A kid first.
Yeah. I said it was stupid.
Okay. It's true.
Come on. No, I didn't think it was as stupid.
The more I think about it. All right, Billy, your hot seat, cool drunk.
My hot seat is, I think you guys, we touched on it a little, but Baby Gronk's dad, a video got posted of him really bad dad Joe really bad really sad kind of I hope I hope baby Gronk at least makes it to D3 football which leads me to my next hot seat I hope baby Gronk beats the fuck out of his dad yeah that would be awesome but hopefully he has success because I mean that puts a lot of you. It feels very exploitative at this point with Baby Gronk's dad.

If you didn't see it, a video got leaked.

What?

We're part of it.

Yeah, no, we are part of it.

Doesn't feel exploitative with Baby Diggs.

He's my guy.

I will pump up Baby Diggs.

You can't exploit Baby Diggs.

No.

I want Baby Diggs around me all the time.

Give me all the videos of Baby Diggs. Wait till you see him.
He's electric. I can't wait.
But basically, he's in an interview with a podcast, and the podcasters are asking Baby Gronk questions, and then Baby Gronk's dad keeps stopping him and telling him to repeat what he says and re-ask the question. It's pretty bad.
My other hot seat is D3 football.

Our boss said that playing D3 football is crazy, pointless,

and just like, you know, if you want to play D3 football, go do it.

It's very rewarding.

I actually am reaping more of the benefits of D3 football now

than I was when I was actually playing it.

How?

Just like your friend group, the guys you meet and play with.

That's college.

Yeah, but...

No, but just...

I think we got...

You got college friends.

What about...

I understood.

So Dave was saying that he wasn't saying all D3 sports.

He said baseball, soccer.

Specifically football.

He was just...

His argument, I was there for him. But football, the physical toll that you have to go through to play D3 football is a lot.
The amount you have to put in for the reward is not worth it. Thoughts.
That's what his argument was. Thoughts.
Maybe not even having a playoffs. Yeah.
Make it kind of pointless. Not being able to talk to the podcast you're on.
Cutting off all communication. The funny thing is that when you're out of it, you forget how bad the grind was and you remember the great times and reminiscing on those makes it all worth it.
Yeah. Especially when you're sitting around with your buddies.
I know it's probably just a college thing, but you're like, yo, remember when Bobby lit up this dude and you just talk about random shit? It makes it all work i know i actually agree with billy like group suffering suffering through some bullshit all together as a group for sure makes you way way closer with those people that you all went through that shit with together and this is probably just because it was my experience and like we think that it's much more fulfilling than like getting hazed with your frat brothers but like frat brothers probably think it's much more fulfilling to do that stuff because it was cooler it's to each their own but at the same time at the end of it you walk away with like you know you don't you get it you get it yeah those will be your best friends for life when i was watching that clip i was thinking about how mad you were oh yeah when no inevitably came out no reading is just like he doesn't get it it's it's fine he doesn't understand the glory. Yeah, he doesn't say the ups and downs of high school football.
Man in the arena. With D3 football.
Yeah. That's a movie quote.
Okay, got it. But it was sick.
Yeah. Definitely, you know, if you're looking for it, reach out to...
So you would do it again and not go D1 and try and walk on at a bigger school. That was more fun.
No, because I would end up... If I tried walking on a D1, I'd see D see d1 parties and be like oh shit why am i doing this and i wouldn't end up doing it so d3 football is actually better than d1 football yes in terms of molding young men probably no this is kind of like when i'm like uh oh i would never have wanted to go to college in like a warm weather climate like who would want to do that yeah deep down i know.
I know that's fucking bullshit. Yeah.
Builds character. Exactly.
Yeah. Okay.
And then a Dricus duplessis is totally, you can get fucked up by Israel Adesanya. Cause he was talking some crazy shit about being the only African fighter in the UFC and Israel Adesanya is like pissed off as fuck.
And he wants to manifest killing him in the ring. Whoa.
Pretty crazy. I'll be watching.
Yeah. And my cool throne is Aaron Rodgers because Zach Wilson hasn't made his life hell on the field.
So that's good to hear as a Jets fan. But has he made it heaven off the field? The verdict's still out.
Okay. Okay, Jake, finish us off.
My hot seat's Oakland A's ownership. So Tuesday night, the fans of Oakland are planning a reverse boycott at the stadium.
So instead of not going to the game, they're actually all going to go to the game and try to pack the Coliseum. They also have won six in a row, and the Royals have lost seven in a row.
So they're now tied with the least amount of wins in the league. So we stand with Oakland.
Yeah, fuck John Fisher. So it's going to be a rowdy environment in Oakland tonight.
So I understand the thing that they're trying to do, which is we want to show in force that we're still a committed fan base despite what our owner is trying to do to us. At the end of the day, though, you're also giving them money, right? Yeah.
But I get it. I get it.
Because Oakland has been the butt of a lot of people's jokes when it comes to the possum that lives in the stadium or whatever whatever and a lot of stuff like that but they still do have fans dude baby digs is terrible baby digs is a fucking electric this video is horrible dude he makes those one hand catches is that what size baby digs is usually or is it cold he is not he's not gonna be good yeah so they were 12 and, but they've won six in a row. Now they're 18-50.

Let's go.

Fuck John Fisher.

Then it will be crazy.

We stand with Oakland.

My cool throw on this would have been a Monday topic as well,

but John Sterling.

Yeah.

Got hit by a foul ball and just kept it going.

You're a hero.

Amazing.

Just grit.

Speechless.

Perseverance.

Not great eyesight.

Professionalism.

No.

Well, he's had trouble with home run calls, so. Yeah.
Can't really see where the ball. He can't track the ball very well.
Stantonian. Yeah great eyesight.
Professionalism. No.
Well, he's had trouble with home run calls, so.

Yeah.

Can't really see where the ball.

He can't track the ball very well.

Stantonian.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay.

But that was really impressive that he just kept going.

He's like Zach Hample.

It was, yeah.

Zach Hample does that all the time.

I'm surprised he didn't go up to the booth and try to snatch the ball.

That would have been awesome if Zach Hample had stuck his glove out in front of John Stratford.

It's like in a fever pitch, right?

Doesn't Drew Barrymore get hit?

And Jimmy Fallon's like, I got it. Yeah.
drew barymore get hit and jimmy fallon's like i got it yeah yeah great movie everywhere yeah um okay good job everyone let's do our us open preview ever had one of those days when it's just too cold to keep working nah neither has ariot ariot work jackets and boots are packed with all the cold stopping waterproof protection you need to get the job done under any conditions so you can take any job out there and always deliver.

Okay, we now welcome on our very, very good friend, Max max homa and if you hear that noise his son cam is joining us as well probably the youngest guest we've ever had on the show god i'd hope so that's true that's true i would absolutely hope so yeah you probably have been able to hear my my son scream oh it already flipped over my son's screaming in the background in some of the Zooms we do, but it's up there.
So Max is on. He's getting ready for the U.S.
Open at his home course. Is it technically your home course? Let's start there.
Not even remotely. I played a golf tournament here in college, and everyone's like, oh, he's the favorite to win because I won the Pac-12s here.
But I've only played the course a few times. Yeah, I mean, it's in my hometown, but it's absolutely not my home course.
This place is far too exclusive for someone like me. So it is your home course.
Yeah, it's your home course. And by the way, you're not the favorite, just so you know.
You shot a 61 there in college, right? I did, yeah. to me that screams everything this is setting up for max home was coming out party i mean listen i will take all of the good vibes i could possibly get the major season has not been kind to me yet again uh so i'll take i'll take all of it um if i need to say that this is my home course, then I'll say it.
But, yeah, I've just set the record straight.

It is 20 miles from my house, but far from my home golf course.

Okay, so let's work on this majors thing because I did want to bring it up.

Yeah, give me something, man.

Well, you brought it up, so I feel good being able to discuss it.

Why do you suck in the majors? I think'm starting to put my uh finger on it um i treat uh i treat them all the same but i i even noticed it today i started to get hey this is funny that i asked that in front of your son yeah yeah your son is quite literally being a human shield for you right now i I thought if I did this today, you guys couldn't be too mean. No, I could just tell I'm more anxious, trying too hard.
All the things I guess you'd hear in the other sports where you get to the playoffs and it's just like a – it's not a mental block. It's like I know what I'm doing, but I just feel more like high strung, more wound up instead of just playing golf.
And I noticed after the PGA, you know, I went to Dallas for the, Fort Worth for the Colonial, the Charles Schwab, and I got eighth or ninth, and I just felt like I was playing golf. It didn't feel like anything special.
And at the P pga i'm trying so hard never to make a mistake so i think that that's it but uh i know it's not my golf game um but man to be to be determined so we need to do like a hoosiers thing with you like the hoop is 10 feet yeah yeah you know the whole four point whatever inches wide. They haven't changed it on us.

Yeah, hole's a hole.

You know how to get in a hole.

That's all we got to say.

You got to, like, look, you were born to get inside holes.

I mean, one time at least.

That's great.

No, but you've got perspective right now.

I mean, this is, it's taking place. The Sunday's going going to be on father's day you've got your son right there this is all lining up for perspective city for max homer yes well i i was gonna i was gonna say to you pft because i know your son um always comes in and gives and tells you nice interesting things but um my my son put a little pressure on me because he said daddy uh my seven month old that he came in the room yesterday uh after he opened the door and he said daddy um you know i i want to get you a father's day gift but the best father's day gift you could get is winning the u.s open and i you know it put a little pressure on me uh but i know he means it uh i know he can't i know he can't leave me as a son so he's kind of stuck but i think he wants his dad to be a winner yeah and i just got to give that to him so i'm glad that he's here giving me uh not only perspective but pressure that's great yeah a little motivation now it does he does he also because my son chris was saying the other day that max homo could never train hard enough to be a member of Smash GC on the live tour that you don't have.

Oh, you saw that story.

Yeah. So maybe you can explain it, I guess.

Who was it that's no longer on Smash Golf Club, but I guess he wasn't working out hard enough to vibe with Brooks?

Matt Wolfe is no longer on.

I've only heard this through rumors, but apparently there was some rigorous workout and everyone was sore except Brooks because he's a beast. And I guess Matt didn't want to do it anymore.
I don't know. Brooks didn't want him to.
I don't really know. But, man, there were a couple of stories.
I laughed real hard at the way people told them. But who knows? I wish, you know, like all the live PGA Tour stuff aside, I wish some of this was more public because, you know, in a league where they have teams like that, like a normal sport, I mean, we get those stories.
Like Lakers have all kinds of those stories. You know, we got Pat Beverly doing funny stuff.
Someone was doing something on Twitter the other day where they said this is the funniest NBA season ever. And there's the part where Westbrook, after the motivational speech is like let's just have fun guys like let's have fun that's what this is about and everyone's amused so i wish some of this stuff on on that tour would come out because i do think it's interesting and funny i mean this this thing that happened with matt leaving smash i mean it was that's entertainment and like i it's It doesn't make anybody like look bad it's just part of the game we're golfers man we are not we're not team driven people yeah i can see how that would be a problem it's the only like team golf doesn't work in my mind but the only way that it could work is if you have like infighting and this league stuff happen and you can you know everyone can get in on the intrigue exactly because if you think about like nba offseason rules sports like it actually might be more interesting than the sport for the first like 70 games and golf all of a sudden in the last year and a half has become like it's got it's got the fire it's got the juice so i lean into that because we have very little interesting off golf course things happen ever so i would i would lean into that so just based on vibes on on who you get along with on the golf course if you were to make your own smash golf club uh i guess first of all what would the name be of it probably the hot the homosexuals i would imagine uh who would you draft decided it really depends on who who owns the tour because I don't.
That one doesn't fly. That doesn't fly.
It's great over there. Yeah, who would you draft? You already picked my team, PFT.
I'm going Charlie Woods number one. His dad, he wants number two.
Baby Crock number three. I'll take only straight legs big cat as my last one.
Dude, I would live golf. I am golf but louder when I don't bend my knees whatsoever.
That would be so good. It would be so good.
It's the only rule. I could be on it, but I can never, ever bend my knees whatsoever.
Has it been? I would assume right now like doing media kind of sucks because this every question is about the live and the piff and pga are you are you at the end of it are you like i i can't keep answering questions to answers i don't even have you probably don't even have any answers to the questions that are being asked of you well i was I was excited because this is actually kind of the beginning.

I have my press conference tomorrow at 3.

So that will be the true meat of it, I would imagine.

I don't know how deep you guys are going to get.

I was just going to – a little trick that we do is instead of asking

the annoying question, we're like, dude, how about these guys asking you

this annoying question, and then you have to answer the question that's why you guys are true capital j's um i don't know it's it is though it's one of those i'm going into i don't know anything it hasn't passed yet nothing's really apparently nothing was you know we don't know anything we weren't even told it was happening so uh i'm i'm playing uh that card because i become a theme. But you say something in an interview, they decide to do something else.
You could always do the freezing cold takes thing. Like what a dumb thing.
That wasn't true at all. So I'm going to start actually trusting my gut here and just not saying a damn thing about it because I don't know anything.
So I guess time will tell, but it's what a world, man. This is crazy.
You know, when I was a little kid practicing golf, trying to think about making a putt to win the US Open, I did not think at any point if I got good enough, I'd be talking about the Saudi public investment fund and what that means to golf. i'll give you an easy one though because you

you are gonna have to face the media they'll have some tough questions for you here's an easy one you know the game fmk right fuck marry kill is what we're gonna do oh yeah fmk it's uh your wife your wife so two different versions of your wife and then jay monahan so which which one of those do you kill?

He can't even be mad about that one. He's obviously

the kill.

Respectfully. Yeah.
All due respect. Yeah.
Wesley Snipes crying. Shooting a guy.
You could also. No offense, Jay, but I'm taking my wife on the first two significantly more intimate ones.
I don't know if this would play, but I've always thought that

when they did this steroid

investigation with Congress and all that shit

and you had Mark McGuire

being like, I'm not here to talk about

the past, I'm here to talk about the future,

and Sammy Sosa just being like, no habla

ingles. If you just did no habla

ingles, could anyone say anything?

Just be like, wait, did Max...

I mean, they could say something, but it better be in Spanish. Yeah, right.
Just be like wait did max i mean they just say something better be in spanish yeah right right just be like sorry i don't know who's the espn dude they do covers the uh like yes oh uh sergio sergio dip sergio dip was awesome he's the legend yeah he would like me the one in there and just start rattling something off and i I'm just absolutely lost. You could just speak Italian the entire time, too.

That would be good.

Just speak with your hands.

You guys labeled me as much more Italian.

I'm like a mutt, but probably 10% Italian.

Everyone's like, I'm Italian, too.

I'm like, cool.

Speaking of which, and we did do the PSA, has it gotten better?

Have the fans gotten better? I don't want to throw AWOs under the bus. There have been a couple good ones.
Yelling, I'm not going to call you a pervert, doesn't count. No, that doesn't.
No, that person's banned. That person's banned.
Listen, I'll say it right now in front of you. Max is playing at his home course.
In his mind, he thinks he's the favorite, which he's not even close so i didn't say i was uh everyone needs to come together and be as supportive as possible for max this weekend like this is this should be when like for some reason every time phil plays in in new york people love him like everyone needs to be behind max 100 there can't't be any funny business. No P-words.
And I mean this. No funny business.
If we see any P-words or hear any P-words, you're banned from the show. We will find you, and we will publicly humiliate you in front of everyone.
Somebody made me laugh pretty hard. They're like, how did Brooks get Blake of the Year and Max got Perver.
Yeah, that one was tough.

The majors probably, I mean, he earned

that, but it is pretty fun.

Yeah, no, we're going to be listening. I'll give it to him.

We're going to be watching. If we hear the

P words out there, it is takey season

coming up in, what, three weeks? Oh, yeah.

Four weeks. I know, I've thought about that.
That's why

I don't want to throw the AWL. No,

no, throw them under. This is the biggest

challenge that they've had. It's earned, not given.
If they want to be, what, seven-time winners? Eight-time? Eight-time winners. This is where you step up to the plate because we'll take it away.
We'll give it to the daddy gang. We will.
If the AWLs do not win their eighth year in a row, ninth year in a row, whatever it is, at the take-ees, I will say I might have to bring back to all of all of the awls who have been meeting me i might have to start saying the the suck my dick thing that we don't say yeah so uh it might be one of those two wrongs might make a right yes i like that no but seriously everyone's got to be fucking cool about it because we will not we will dax shepherd had a huge year again year again with his podcast Prince Harry there's a lot of good podcasts out there they could get that would be a tough blow that would be rough Mean Girls are having a good year Mean Girls pods popping off I don't know what they call it how about Only St stands with glennie balls i mean that's kind

of yeah that that's the number one audience what what a uh podcast he backed his way into he's a genius remarkable he's a genius every time that comes across my feed it shocks me because i've been around glennie enough to just i just never saw that in his cards uh with these women basically begging

him to be a part of their uh their profession yeah and my my oh my is he taking advantage of this uh i'm impressed it's it sounds like you're a listener to only stands i'm a uh instagram on my feed listener i'm a supporter of running balls i didn't want to i didn't want to get the p word going again uh the yeah no granny balls the wolf of ball street did you see the very like there was an actual article the other day that uh all right see you cam bye thanks cam okay now that he's gone uh you better not fucking suck on this weekend okay no but the wolf of ball street there was a press release some dick pill company uh their stock went up by like 80 percent because they announced the sponsorship with glennie balls and only come on he's moving markets the guy is the fucking glennie balls has like the greatest job slash is the greatest at a job that anyone has ever done like he is he's just an incredible so i gotta tell i gotta tell one glennie story um i hope i mean i don't think this is a i'm proud of him for this so this is a good story so i hope he's not upset i'm sharing the uh you know behind the scenes stuff but uh when i did my sunday conversation with caleb like uh last or two years ago, whatever, I had known Caleb quite a bit, but I had never met Glennie. So hang out with Glennie, whatever.
That night, me, Caleb, and a couple of my friends went to dinner. And when we were at dinner, I was just kind of asking about everywhere.
I was like, you know, it's Glennie guy. You know, what, you know, seems like a trip.
You know, he's got the Hawaiian shirt on. He'll, you know, he's just, you know, he's built different.
He just follows, kind of eats the ice cream. I was like, what's, you know, what's his dealaiian shirt on uh he'll you know he's just you know he's built different he just follows kind of eats the ice cream i was like what's you know what's his deal like how how is he because he glennie had also texted me like to come meet us out that night when we went to the bars and he's like oh no glennie's a man he's like also he goes he gets more girls than anybody i've seen and i was like come on like actually glennie balls like his name is glenn him.
And he goes, yep, all about him. So text Glennie, Caleb comes with us.
We end up going out to the bars. Glennie ends up rolling in 30 minutes later.
I would say five minutes after Glennie gets to the table, there are two girls on his arm and Caleb is just, you know, doing the Caleb face like I told you. And I was like, God dang, dude, Glennie's got it.
He's got the sauce. We might have to cut this part out but there was one time where glennie was uh he was out of commission he was on the dl for two weeks yeah with a sprained neck because he ate so much pussy i was gonna say that story of pft didn't so we won't cut it out that's so sick yeah no he went he came back and he was like i can't move my neck yeah no he was like why he's like i was eating pussy it's like uncle jr in court but for the real uncle jr i mean what the fuck no he's the man yeah he's the man it's the old arnold it's the old arnold line eating isn't cheating so he's fine yeah i'm not so sure we can all subscribe to that one.
But I'm glad he seems to make his own rules. So he can do whatever he wants.
I got another balls-related question. But it's actually about the golf ball.
Does golf have a ball problem? I've been reading a lot about how the players on tour. There's some sort of like, I don't know, period where you guys can submit your reviews of whether or not the balls have gotten too good.

Have the balls gotten too good in golf?

I mean, the balls are quite good.

I mean, are they too good is the question.

I don't know.

It's weird.

I guess we only know what we have, so we all like it and don't want to have anything change. if my phone falls one more time i'm gonna lose my mind sorry boys uh that's okay we have like half your head it's fine this is actually i know it's better it's gonna be a great youtube if you're listening to this go watch on youtube i'm gonna hold it um so there's a problem that is the word the us open is is run by the usga the usga is the one doing this uh they think we have uh our balls are too good um and they have an issue because they've you know hosted a bunch of golf tournaments that have kind of gone awry they've made a couple rules changes that people haven't liked i like the usga uh i like well i like most of the people at the USGA.

And they're in this weird spot where I feel like if they told us that the sky was blue,

we would say, no, it's purple at this point.

Like, there's just not a lot of trust.

So we're getting reports about why the ball is so good.

And I just don't think a lot of guys are 100% in on their info.

But I also think, I mean, selfishly, I wouldn't want to change uh i don't want to change balls uh my balls my balls feel feel good uh when i got them in the bag and uh when i take them out of the bag uh they feel good too so um that was supposed to be a joke and that sounds fucking painful I guess from like a viewer perspective I've never once watched golf

and been like supposed to be a joke and that sounds fucking painful i guess from like a viewer perspective

i've never once watched golf and been like i can't watch this sport anymore the balls are too good is there actually like an impact that's kind of my take there are the sickos out there the golf sickos which i get they're the golf sickos who the golf courses they think are playing too short now you know we're we're i guess not playing it to how they were designed anymore and and there's an issue with you know make it having more land and how what are you going to keep doing just knocking on trees and homes like what you can't keep making the golf course longer and longer like that's one angle i guess but i just don't know any of my many friends who casually watch golf who have themselves. I'm not turning this shit on on sunday I'm, so fucking sick of watching rory mcelroy hit driver and then a wedge like I know there's sickos out there I know there's there's great golf fans who are in it deep and they're very invested I just don't think that for the majority of the fans That's that big of a deal.
Yeah, so it's i'm just a little bit i'm not so sure where i stand on it i like what i play i i don't know it just doesn't seem like a big enough deal to make this big of a fuss about it but i mean shoot i'm just a golfer i don't i don't really know shit about anything i don't know shit about fuck so you can say that now because cam's in the other room um i want to go back to something because we should we should talk about it positive vibes going to us open 61 at this course still is the course record uh is it going to be set up similar distance wise and i know they make the us open very hard every year but in like 61 probably won't happen just by the design but is it like pretty much the same course that you have the course record on yeah it's pretty similar i mean i wouldn't let my home golf course change too much after uh the 61 um but yeah i mean it's it's longer some people are saying they max proofed it i i don't know i just heard a few people a few murmurs um but no they they lengthened it actually uh quite a bit they've added some tees on the part threes i don't know if you've seen that picture that went around the 290-yard par three. That was not there when I did that.
So yeah, it'll be a bit longer, but they haven't changed too much of the golf course. But I think they're going to make it firm.
The sun came out today, so they can start making it really fast. I mean, I can't imagine it playing to a place where you could shoot 61, but I've I've seen I mean I've seen crazier things done uh I would love to be uh I'd love to somehow get back to that place and somehow fire something like that uh but I don't know play if you play the golf course today I could tell you I could I could have seen it but I just imagine by Thursday it's going to be a different golf course I was gonna say what do, what do you shoot on a 290-yard par 3? What do you take out of your bag? Today it was downhill, a little downwind, so I hit 3 iron.
But there's another par 3 on the front 9-7 that was 265 into the win yesterday, so we hit 3 wood. I mean, it's a monster.
I could see, I guess, you know, u.s open they have the the amateur qualifier the qualifying for it so you get a lot of or at least a handful every once in a while of guys who uh you know don't play professional golf they're just uh they qualify for the u.s open and some of those guys don't hit it super far uh like the young kids these days and i could see somebody having to bang driver uh on one of those two part threes, which is a tall task. But it's a fair golf course.
But you look at that number, and it's pretty daunting. But, you know, dimple heads like us know that par is just a construct.
It's just about how many total. 72 at Shinnecock.
I mean, you could call it even par, but it's just a 72. Right.
Did I go driver on par threes no matter what the distance so that actually works for my game straight legs straight drives short butts 90 yards driver straightest golfer in the world yeah just take a little bit off of it what so wait get back so that's 61 like when you were shooting that 61 were you in your in your head like holy am so on fire. We need to get, we get back to that max.
I mean, I was full blackout. Uh, it was a nice day.
Um, yeah, I don't know. It was one of those, one of those, uh, I mean, we've all had it.
One of those days where everything's just going right. Um, but yeah, I can't, I can't get back to that max.
I mean, it was in California, obviously. So the golf gods treat me quite nicely in this state.

So I'm hoping for a little bit of that magic.

But every once in a while, you know, the kid can get it going.

It's been a while since I fired a 61, about 10 years.

But I mean, I feel good.

It's not going to sit up here and guarantee a 61 or anything near it.

But it is nice to play a golf course where I know that I've done something pretty great. Yes.
And then get to play a major. I mean, that feels like part of positive vibes only.
I mean, that is very positive. Yeah.
I mean, look back at what happened with Matt Fitzpatrick, right? Yeah. When he won, that was on the course.
Oh, that's right. Yeah.
Yeah. Like his his home course in Massachusetts I know he's British Englishman's home course in uh in his neighborhood of Boston yeah you can do it you can you can definitely do this uh I've been watching a lot of the videos this week of of people just dropping balls into the rough and watching them disappear into the Bermuda grass I love that if you're out there you know and you're playing in the U.s open you've got spotters you've got guys that will show you where your ball went if you went out there and you played in this rough without those spotters how many balls do you think you'd lose just by missing the fairway by 10 feet so not as so those videos are so fucking annoying by the way it's become like a yearly golf tradition just to be like you see this you can't even see the ball yeah um but it off the fairway uh the rough's not really that bad it's not like a normal us open it's not great but it's not that bad but where they're dropping it's behind a few of the greens where they let it grow so i don't think you would lose that many balls um you know hitting your second shots over greens even, even if you didn't have spotters.
But there's a couple spots around. This is I'll give a little inside baseball when you go when you guys watch this weekend.
Around the bunkers is the longest, thickest grass known to man. And you'll just barely miss the ball going into the bunker.
And people are going to be so fucked and so frustrated because the ball is going to be, you know, two, three steps from being good. And it's going to be so, so, so bad.
And I would, I, you could definitely lose a couple in there. I lost, we lost in our group yesterday, left of eight, we lost a ball or two.
It's like, Hey, in there and it's, it's not good. So I can see that, but I don't, I mean, I don't think i would lose a ball here without a spotter but i mean i have to say that because i'm professional yeah uh but there's been a couple u.s opens where if you didn't have spotters i guarantee you i'd lose two three or four for sure i always love the guy that says like oh he'd rather be in the bunker there yeah you know when you hit it right next to the bunker oh that's a tough break because actually the sand is preferable.
Yeah. Yeah.
That's the advanced. Yeah, we're going to top that for sure.

Yeah. there yeah you know right next to the backer oh it's a tough break because actually the sand is preferable yeah yeah that that that's uh that's yeah we're gonna drop that for sure have you thought about uh i was watching the canadian open on sunday and i i listen i am a dimple head but i'm not up to all the rules fleetwood just like absolutely crushing one into the stands and getting a free drop i then spent the next 10 minutes uh on my couch being like, is there an advantage to just like hitting it as hard as you can right into the stands over and over for free drops? And then I realized, oh yeah, you're a professional golfer.
So you can probably just aim for the pin. But have you thought about that? Just like letting it rip and just being like, what does it matter? It's a fucking, I get a free drop.
Yeah. So funny.
You mentioned that one of my favorite joe stories my caddy uh we were in uh minnesota three years ago maybe and the last hole is a par five and the second shot's all over water and we were between three iron and three wood it was uh in the pin you know it's just just past the water and then there's a decent amount of green a bunch of rough and then the grandstands and i'm in between i think if i don't hit three iron great it's going to go in the water but three would felt like too much so joe goes listen he's like i got a great idea because let's hit three wood if it if it comes out really good it'll just fly long and it'll bounce into the into the backstop basically backstopping it'll bounce into the grandstand it'll stop in the rough, and maybe if you hit it hard enough, it'll shoot back onto the green. And he's kind of cocky about the way he said it.
I'm like, it's brilliant. You're a genius.
This is why I pay you the big bucks. So we hit three wood.
I hit it, and it's right at it. But I hit it good, so it's definitely going over the green at the stands.
And he's yelling while it's in the air, hit that backstop! Hit that fucking backstop! It was 280 yards away, and I can still hear the ping of one of the metal parts of the structure. It hit the dead center pole, shot straight back, passed the flag into the water.
I go to look at Joe. I honestly, of the bad you know what are bad shots you get mad whatever of all the things i went to look at jokes i was going to lose my mind laughing because it was just everything went perfect he thought it was great he was talking about it in the air whatever i went to go find joe and he was already like 30 yards ahead of me with his head down he He thought he broke the course.

He thought he broke the game.

He was basically me sitting on my couch.

So you should check that.

That's hilarious.

What about the end of that tournament, the Canadian Open,

when Duke got tackled on the hat.

Yeah, Trenton Hadwin.

Yeah, trying to celebrate with his buddy,

like spraying champagne on him.

Have you thought about who you would like to spray champagne on you

and then also get jacked up on the 18th green um i can honestly say i've never thought about that um who would be funny patrick there's a lot of funny ones yeah patrick reed that would be funny bryson makes these kinds of things funny although he's big and that would be Nate need a big security guard. He's not that big anymore.
People are asking if he lifts anymore. Bryson isn't that big.
Is he not that big anymore? No, he's not that big. Kind of a weenie.
Dang. Dang, muscle shaving.
I don't know. Hadwin's not a big fella.
He was not. I feel like he was an easy target.
I would like to know if someone like Brooks' size was doing what Adam was doing, if that security guard would feel the same kind of bravado. But I don't know.
I'm going to have to table that one. There's a lot of funny people.
Actually, right now, Justin Thomas took a bunch of money off me today, so I'd like him to get tackled. Actually, that's my answer forever.
I would love Justin Thomas. Or Ricky Fowler.
That'd be funny to see Ricky just go flying. His belt pops off.
His neon belt flies. Ricky was my partner today, so he doesn't deserve that after what happened to us.
All right. Well, Max, this has been awesome.
I got one last question. All protein bars generally taste the same, but not one bars.
One made protein bars are actually delicious with Reese's and Hershey's. Only one Reese's peanut butter lover's protein bar is made with Reese's peanut butter.
And only one Hershey's cookies and cream protein bars is made with Hershey's cookie bits while delivering 18 grams of protein and three grams of sugar. One bars are the perfect protein bar to get you through

your busy day, whether you need a quick pick me up between meetings or you need some fuel to power you through your next workout. One also has other delicious flavors like birthday cake, maple glazed donut and blueberry cobbler.
Find all one bars at a retailer near you or on amazon.com. so we got to think positive we got to think don't push it you you are great you're a great golfer you're about to go to your home course where you have a 61 um i just want you to know and this isn't really a question it's more just a statement um it's father's day obviously for you you're doing it for cam you got to visualize Cam being put into your arms at the 18th green after you win.
But also remember all the dads, and I'm not going to name names, but some people who really like you and consider you a friend who are going to bet on you also have children, and you could be ruining Father's Day for them, too. Yeah, and some of those friends have a big move upcoming.
Yeah, so it's a lot of stress, and and some of those friends are have a big move upcoming yeah so it's

a lot of stress and and also some of those friends again not going to name names uh had will zalatoris in the u.s open last year also on father's day and he missed that putt and he screamed what the fuck in front of all his kids on father's day so we don't want to have a repeat of that for these hypothetical fathers out there

that's fair um hypothetically speaking though it does seem a little bit easier to get over after hypothetically one of those friends made like 70 000 in the last brooks yeah yeah but i'll tell you what when when people say like oh yeah you know like a bad loss and then you look in your kids' eyes and it all melts away, that's bullshit.

That is bullshit.

I, last year in the U.S.

Open, my son actually said, Dad, it needs a break. And I was like, yeah, I need a break.
This was bad. So I'm going to root for you hard.
We got all the power behind you. You just got to think positive thoughts.
You can do this. We know you can do it.
I'm in, boys. I feel good.
i know i say every time but i do feel no this time's different this this time's different um it just takes one you know and and maybe that is this one uh so i'm excited it will be fun man getting to play uh aldrich side getting to play a major championship in my hometown is sick so uh it'll be it blast. I'm looking forward to making it a very happy Father's Day for all of my gambling friends who are dads out there.
Let's just do baby steps, too. You've done the baby step of making the cut in the majors.
Let's do baby step of, let's say, top 10 going into Sunday. In the mix.
Yeah. In the mix.
I'll take it. Just put me in the mix.
Just play golf. Just play golf on Sunday.
Let it fall wherever it may. Yeah.
Just get in the mix and then let it rip. I'm all in on that.
I just want you to shoot as good as you possibly can. I want you to be the best Max that Max can be.
That's it. You know, the rest is just a number.
Now, yeah, your best is actually shooting a 61 every day you've proven that you can do that yeah so you should just do that again 461 i mean that would be sick 36 under par if i don't win that one i think i gotta just crawl in a hole um but yeah in the wise words of russell westbrook just we're just gonna have fun yeah we're just gonna have fun it's it's a successful day last tip for you uh i do this uh as a larger man who doesn't like to work out when i go on the treadmill i put a towel over the screen so that i don't have to look at the mileage slowly creep up uh what if you just put a big towel over the leaderboard and you're like i'll just let me know on sunday where i stand i don't don't hate that. That would be all time if you finish.

I was US Open.

You never know.

You finished 10 over, and you're just like, look at Joe.

Did I win?

Yeah, right.

Did we do it?

No, man.

You got 40 seconds.

I'll put a towel over the treadmill, and I'll get on it for like 30 minutes, and then I'll

take it off, and it'll be like, you've run 1.25 miles.

I'm like, what the fuck?

That would be embarrassing.

Did you see that asshole that ran two miles in like seven and a half minutes? No. Mincy? He broke the record.
Bullshit. Oh.
Who was it? I'm not a Is that a two mile record? Yeah. Jake? I feel like that's Oh yeah, last question.
Do you think there's some rumors now that Jake's hole in one was fake? Any thoughts? thoughts? Yeah, those people are idiotic, and I hit a hole-in-one. I'm starting to think the rumor might be true.
Dude, so. Yeah, it's a perfect crime.
Quick, funny story. Day before, Jake, the day before your hole-in-one, one of my best friends, Steven, made his first hole-in-one.
I'm in a group chat with him and my buddy Kyle, who has, has not had a hole in one. So Steven's freaking out.
Kyle was a little bit jealous of the next day. Uh, your video gets kind of flown around our group chat.
And my friend Kyle said something to the tune of, I need to get on a golf course ASAP. The golf gods are clearly asleep right now.
I'm just saying it was pointed out to me that my initial reaction when someone said that video was fake Was I was like Jake would never fake anything He's the most honest guy I know And the person said exactly And I was like If it gets revealed that it's fake I'll do the Ray Allen tweet But how are we going to reveal it We'll just pay one of his friends $1,000. Just say that it's safe.
It was perfectly done, by the way. The way you cheered and had your friends cheer was perfectly done.
I was talking about these accusations with my friend over the weekend, and they're like, oh, yeah, you should have ran up to the ball. I'm sorry.
When you get a hole-in-one, you're not thinking of every step of how you're going to film it. Especially if you faked it.
Right, exactly. Especially if you faked it.
Why would you run up if the ball is not in there? It's convenient as well. Also, I have the full video of my friend running up and giving me the thumbs up.
The one who was running? Yeah, he was in on it. We didn't see the ball.
We just saw the thumbs up. I would be like a police officer.
I would have a body cam. I golf with a body cam on me at all times and I activate it on par threes and short par fours just in case that happens.
It's just moving the goalpost. If I didn't have a video, no one would believe it.
Now I have a video, but it's not good enough. Well, either way, it was probably fake, but Max, when I fill out my next scorecard, I'm going to just casually put in a hole-in-one and just let it sit there.
If you could please retweet it and be like, holy shit, congrats on the hole-in-one. I would appreciate that.
Hey, you buy me a beer, I'm in. Okay, done.
Deal. Oh, Max, can you also get us one of those hats that just say media on them? I love those hats.
Did you see Trent had one on today? Oh, yeah. Those hats kick ass.
Those and the ones that just say grit on them at a golf tournament. I love those.
I'll try to find one. I got it.
That hat was I was like, so you don't need a credential anymore. You just need to go into the pro shop and buy a media hat.
Anybody can buy one. I want that too.
Citizen journalism. I love it.
Well, Max, thank you so much. Best of luck.
We are rooting for you very hard. Go get them.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
You guys are the best. PFT, I love you guys.
Oh, you want to guess real quick because you've gotten the ball so many more times? You want 25 again? 25 has been hot. I have a new mission.
I want 69. I want to get it before Billy gets back.
Alright. Numbers.
Max has 69. I'll take 17.
18. I'll take 25.
Oh. No, you don't have 69.
Max has 69 I got it tattooed on me after I got it. Oh, there you go.
Yeah. Yeah.
Max has 69. Okay.
21. Okay.
Billy's mad, just so you know. No, he doesn't even care.
He's very mad. He's so mad.
I don't care at all. I don't.
He's so mad. Me, have you ever gotten it? 20.
1. What did I guess? Oh, I guess 17.
He's not mad at all. He's just really.
No, if 69 hits and someone else gets it. Oh, 56.
I'm going to smash the ball machine. Oh.
That's a totally appropriate way to do this. No, it's a threat.
So if you want to choose it and it hits, like, no more ball machines. But again, not mad.
That's not mad. It's just like being a baby and not ruining the fun forever.
It's a line in the sand. Yeah.
It's fine. Okay.
Because you stole my sex number ball. All right.
Thank you, Max. All right.
See ya. 461.
See you, guys. Take care, Billy.
Later. Bye.
See ya. As we progress through the season, every fan knows that big wins are hard to come by and tough losses are even harder to accept but you know what isn't hard to accept discover believe it or not discover is accepted at 99 of places that take credit cards nationwide you heard that right 99 so make a good call for your wallet and get discover based on the february 2024 nielsen report learn more at discover.com credit card and now for something completely different okay we now welcome on our very good friend five-time major champion brooks kapka we are he is just to set the scene.
He's watching his peas go down very sadly. You know what Brooks? I'll cheer you up.
I'm sure they'll get in a fight and maybe win the fight at the end of the game. Yeah, I hope so.
That's about all. That's about the only thing we're going to win tonight.
So all right. We can't let this though affect what's going on this week because

uh we we stumbled on the fact that every time you come on before a major you win the major this is the week la country club uh let's start with how you're feeling give us general vibes you feeling good i mean a lot a lot of things in the news the last couple weeks how you feeling Yeah.

Yeah.

It's been crazy.

Off five feels great.

I got to be honest.

Yes.

I've. weeks how you feeling yeah yeah uh it's been crazy um i feel off five feels great i gotta be honest yes i've uh i've sobered up we're back on track we're ready to go um yeah so definitely feeling a lot better than i did a few days after yeah that's actually a smart move is to just get real banged up right afterwards and then you feel great a week later.
That's like thinking seven-dimensional chess. We saw you at the Peas game.
And the Heat. Yeah, the internet had its fun with you at the Panthers game.
They didn't understand just how locked in you were on the hockey. Yeah.
Oh, I was locked. I was glued.
Didn't even want to blink. I was afraid I was going to miss something.
When you were – then the heat game the next night, were you just gassed? Like you looked gassed by the heat game. The heat game I think was my – I think I had slept like five hours the total.
Going to the heat game, I was struggling to stay awake. Honestly, the drive down was miserable.

It was like two and a half hours.

And,

um,

yeah,

I was,

it was,

I was banged up and then they lost and that made it way worse.

The drive.

Yeah.

Um,

but yeah,

so I got it all out of my system.

Um,

yeah,

I mean,

it makes you appreciate the good days.

Yeah.

That's what it does.

You're out. Yeah.
When did you start? I'm feeling great. Yeah, I mean, it makes you appreciate the good days.
That's what it does. Your health.

Yeah.

When did you start to feel great right now? I like that.

Instead of being injured makes you appreciate your health.

No, being violently hungover for four days makes you appreciate being not hungover.

Yeah, exactly.

The worst is the day you're sober and you get that first hangover, but then the delayed onset hangover that happens the day after you're sober.

That's almost worse.

Yeah, I just figured if I just kept drinking, then I'd be all right.

Yeah.

So that was more the plan I was on.

So it was a solid three days, four days of just – I was banged up.

Yeah, you deserved it. So today – I heard that you shot 62 today is that true yeah could have yeah i like that we'll go with that okay would you shoot something around there okay i have no idea uh it was definitely a par i beat dj and will then i played those two today so i beat, nice.
Now, I heard a little birdie told me that this course plays slow.

Is that true?

I don't understand how a course could play slow.

Is there like a log jam anywhere?

That's the only thing I'm worried about with you this weekend.

Yeah, I mean, I'm not really sure who I'm playing behind.

But, you know, if certain people are in front of me, it could play slow.

Yeah.

Just saying. But you've learned the trick that you aren't going to tell anyone, but we know the trick because we just picked up on context clues.
If you walk slower, then you can't be held up. Exactly.
Just take a little longer, get into the ball, maybe a little bathroom break. Yeah.
And I mean, this is a perfect course for it for you've got the playboy mansion that is overlooking the course doesn't it like isn't the backyard of the playboy mansion on this golf course it is that was the only reason i mean i played this course in college before they redid it and that was the only thing that i remembered from it of course the golf course wasn't that i couldn't remember any of the holes but I just remember the Playboy match it was on it and it's a damn shame you can't even see it that could have been fun the whole placement on that was at number 6 I can't wait until they put that one out we should do another pin placement map and then have number 6 just be a bunch of vaginas all over it.

Yes.

We're excited to watch you play Southern California golf.

I've heard there's been a lot of people talking about the rough.

They're talking about the rough, I feel like, because it's the U.S. Open,

and you have to talk about the rough.

Is it really that bad, or is it just in a few spots?

It's bad in some spots, but I don't know.

Honestly, the practice runs i haven't

been in it i like that i like that a lot yeah i'm just planning on not going in it so then i should be all right yeah smart that's why i don't have a sandwich yeah i don't know i say i keep out of the bunker driver and putter all right i got i got the guys you're playing uh behind so billy horschel chris kirk and brian harman oh they're fine okay all right boom that's a good start i like that yes i didn't look to see it was in front of me but i like that yeah okay all right we feel good um what was the workout you were doing where you were just jumping up and down in your pool oh yeah oh that was the other day one yeah um sorry it's been a bit of a blur lately um yeah it was a little bit of a detox had to get a little sweat going um i don't know my trainer he's actually trying to get me to go in the pool right now but i'll be honest i'm 100 way too lazy and don't even feel like your trainer sounds awesome yeah wait how does that work if you're like you hire a trainer and he's like brooks it's time to work out you can say no uh yeah i've had my i'm picking my moments right now uh i'm trying to get the game you know we've had the game on tv so i'm trying i'm using every excuse in the book right now yeah like the panthers are on i don't really feel like it the panthers gonna lose now you're bummed yeah it's like hey I'm using every excuse in the book right now. Yeah.
Like, the Panthers are on. I don't really feel like it.
The Panthers are going to lose. Now you're bummed.
Yeah, it's like, hey, I'm going to be depressed for a little bit. And then, yeah.
So I'm trying my best here. Yeah, you don't want to be depressed in a pool.
That's a sad look. Yes.
Like Kendall Roy. Yeah.
Is that the workout that we were hearing about? Is that the Smash GC workout? That, you know, it's not for not the smash workout is more you guys could do it it's easy what does that mean we could do the other one too you just were in the pool jumping up and down yeah I mean you guys are athletes you guys could do it all yeah I, and I was like, is this a workout, or is he playing in this pool? No, no, both. Yeah.
Both. But yeah, the Smash GC workouts are apparently really tough.
Yeah. That's what I heard.
Where are we at with the naming of your son, Blake? Yeah, we're still working on that. I definitely know that when you were messaging Jenna that she, I don't know, she's somewhere back, she's behind me somewhere.
But I think, honestly, a win this week just solidifies it. Because we did make a deal.
She said if he wins the U.S. Open, then I get to, she's like, Jenna gets to to name the the child which she is giving birth so she probably should get right of first refusal but i said deal so um maybe it's just maybe me and jenna will handle it yeah yeah you guys keep just dm'ing over instagram and we'll get the baby's name eventually it'll be all right dion kepka what do you What do you think about that? That's pretty good.
That is a good name. For a state.
That's a, I like it. I tried to go with one of my sons' Dion Katz, and that was shut down quickly.
Prime. Yeah.
Yeah. We were talking to Max a second ago about these par threes on the course.
What are you hitting on the 290 290 yard par three uh hit three iron and three wood on one on both of them there's like it's stupid they have two of them that are that distance i mean they're basically part fours that just happen to be part threes you think anybody's going to lay up there's got to be a short hitter out there that definitely does but you can't do that if it let's say that like my drive topped out it probably does top out around 270 280 and knowing that it couldn't reach the green you can't lay up on a par three at a u.s open no you're definitely smacking i mean there'll be definitely guys that smack driver which would be quite funny that's but, yeah, and then there's one that could play like 75 yards,

which is really weird.

One of the par threes?

Yeah.

If you go to the front of the tee box and put the pin in the front,

it can play like 75 yards.

Jesus.

I mean, I'd hit driver on that too, just take a little bit off.

By the way, did you see –

so our colleague Dan Rapport did a watch video with Mattzpatrick from last year's u.s open um hank had the good idea of maybe we could do one with you uh from the pga championship so i'm just pulling up right now hole one you hit driver that was sick you fucking crushed that crushed it murdered it literally I don't know. I think it went in a fair way.
Yeah, it did. Yeah.
It's not. We're just going to say it, dude.
Yeah. And then hole two.
Oh, I don't even remember. I just remember I was holding that trophy.
That was our recap. I just remember I was holding the trophy at the end, and then it got a bit blurry after that.
There's our recap. That was a good recap.
That was a really good recap. I think it was perfect.

Yeah, we got it all.

Yeah.

What's a good score here on this course?

Is par?

You were saying like a couple weeks ago par is a good score at the PGA.

Is par a good score here?

Yeah, I think so.

With the rough being difficult, I think honestly, I think winner will probably be six to eight under.

Okay.

Are you going to win?

I mean, that's why I'm on here.

Yeah.

Thank you. I think winner will probably be six to eight under.
Okay. Are you going to win? I mean, that's why I'm on here.
Yeah. Yeah.
That's true. This is the final prep.
This is a final. This is more important than doing anything with your trainer.
Yeah. Honestly.
Yeah. I turned down all interviews basically at the course this week.
I knew I was coming on here. This is the only one that matters.
And yeah. I love it.
your mental coaches yeah yeah just go out there and fucking kill it yeah just fucking crush it honestly i just need to call you guys before every round yeah be my guys yeah we'll do it like brooks dude you're sick at golf just go be sick at golf you're brooks yeah that's it yeah get dave get dave to call me too. Listen, if you win this weekend, he's going to be in a world of hurt because he was already in a world of hurt after the PGA.
He went radio silent the last round. So if that happens again this weekend, I don't know what he's going to do.
Yeah. It could be interesting.
It'd be great. Do you listen you listen there's a real question do you like there's you're now getting like talked about legacy and shit like that do you care about it i mean you care about a little bit i would assume but it's kind of cool to be like once you get five the list is getting smaller and smaller as you climb up there yeah it's crazy um i don't think you think about it right now you don't think about it in the moment i think it'd be cool to reflect on it when i'm done playing yeah when i'm done i'm like damn that was that was a sick run that was sweet got five of these things you know working our way to six this week um yeah just i think looking back would be the coolest thing but like when you're in the moment and you're doing it it just you just keep keep plugging along oh you don't be awesome if you got 10 oh yeah double digits man that's where honestly that's what i want yeah because i think what only three guys have ever had double digits yeah you'd be wrong you gotta get him in now though before charlie woods gets up there's next up.
You ever played with Charlie? We might have asked you that. We'll say this right now because we consider you a friend.
You and Max are our guys. We root for you guys over everyone else.
Once Charlie Woods comes on, we're probably going to lose your number. Yeah, I mean, yeah, I get that.
By the time he – I don't know. What is he right now he's 14 we're grooming him he's 14 yeah yeah I'll definitely my live contract will be done I'm out alright I have one last thing rollback question RHOBACK.com promo code TAKE for 20% off your first purchase.
Q-Zips, polos, hoodies, joggers, shorts, everything. Roback.com.
By the way, it is now 6-1 nights. I don't know if you still have the game on, Brooks.
That's tough. But we can't think about that.
What I do want to ask you, though, is if you do win this weekend, not to get ahead of ourselves, but it would be kind of cool if you did like the MJ where he did the six when he won the sixth. Yeah.
I'm just saying, if you flash the five and the one over and over to let everyone know, just something to think about. I'll be doing that all the way to Vegas.
Okay. I'll be doing that all the way to Vegas, and then you guys got to come.
Oh, don't tempt us. Yeah? We have a really busy week next week.
I don't think we have anything on Monday. Are you going straight to Vegas if you win Sunday night? Absolutely, yes.
We might have to meet you there. Yeah, I think that's – yeah, that would be epic, right? You got to go.
I did that after the first one and i feel like after six it's like you gotta run for sure do you have one that you know that that's your favorite major probably the last one i mean that's pretty sick no no wait including including the party but like this one could top it all yeah you you wait ask that a question question again you know you have to answer. Brooks, do you have a favorite major that you've won?

Yes, the next one.

Yeah, perfect.

Okay, you're ready.

He's ready.

He's ready.

He's ready.

All right, well, Brooks, hopefully we talk to you Sunday night.

Wait, is it really?

What did you say it was?

6-1?

6-1.

6-1.

It's 6-1 nights.

All right, well, at least it's over.

Yeah, there you go. Exactly, exactly.
All right. Thanks, Brooks.
Best of luck, man. All right.
Thanks, guys. All right.
See you in Vegas. See ya.
Hey, it's Rhea from Chicks in the Office. It's officially mini-skort season, and Abercrombie has the ones to go out in.
Their Scarlet Mini is a classic. It's one of those skirts that fits the outfit vibe for any plans.
And I'm excited to style their new Sienna Skort. It's a little more flirty and it's perfect for a date night.
Make plans to go out in Abercrombie. Shop their newest arrivals in-store and online.
Okay, let's wrap up. Guys on chicks.
Henry, world-renowned female expert no you think do you feel like you do you feel like you're uh you're a miss you billy that's foreshadowing hanks do you feel like you know um like you understand women more now that you're in your 30s no do you think that i'd say less are you daddy Our girl's like, man, Hank is so mature.

He's a zaddy.

What's a zaddy?

I don't know. A sigma daddy?

I don't know.

I've seen zaddy thrown around.

I'm hearing Hank's a daddy.

A sexually attractive man, especially an older one who's fashionable or charismatic.

Yeah, Hank's a zaddy.

Fuck yeah.

I have a very important and concerning situation. My boyfriend of three years and I are moving in together for the first time.
How can I properly prepare myself for life in a 900 square foot apartment with a man? Give me any and all weird tics or things he may do. Thanks.
And P.S. I always remind him that he's the second love of my life next to PFT.
Zaddy. Who's the real zaddy? What's up? That's what they call me.
Well, first of all, every guy has a mat next to their bed that they jerk off onto. And that's where they come.
You remember that, guys on Chicks? That was an all-time weird one. Yeah.
I would lay down bathroom ground rules the second you move in. There needs to be some communication about cleanliness of the toilet, seat up, seat down, door open, door closed policy when it comes to pooping.
And really you're just going to have to come to terms with the fact that, uh, at some point you're going to be in the shower or he's going to be in the shower. And the other person is going to have to take a massive dump and you need to figure out what you're going to do about that ahead of time.
Yeah. Um, you're never going to get the remote again.
Stop fighting for that. Don't fight.
Cause that's like, listen, it's your apartment. you're going to do about that ahead of time yeah um you're never going to get the remote again stop fighting for that don't fight because that's like listen it's your apartment you're going to be the one who like even in the bathroom setup you're going to get 90 of the bathroom he's going to get 10 but he also gets the remote so just remember that um i hope you have a pedestal sink that's going to be important too yeah i just have all sorts of weird shit that they put up there.
Also, guys like stickers. So maybe do like a chart, like all the chores he does.

Give him a sticker.

End of the week, he gets like a prize.

Yeah.

Something like that.

I'm with Pifty.

The one bathroom thing is that's the real challenge.

Yeah.

And I should say, I hope you don't have a pedestal sink.

Yeah.

I hope you have the one that's got a lot of counter space on it so you can put all your weird smelling lotions and stuff. He's probably going to have like three things that he keeps in the bathroom.
Your deodorant, your toothbrush, and maybe a razor. Yeah, and besides that, the rest is yours.
I'm actually, so in my new house I haven't moved into in Chicago yet, his and her bathrooms, and it's not- Their bathrooms? Yeah, there's two bathrooms. Sheesh.
Yeah. And it's dawned on me that I now have to clean my own bathroom.
And it's going to be a war zone in there. I might put up a Pink Floyd poster, though.
Yeah, make it man-cai. Have it be my area.
Put carpeting down. Imagine if I put a big Floyd poster in.

Remember those two chicks kissing that everyone had?

Yeah.

Just fucking, this is the guy zone.

Get a TV in there.

Put a TV in there.

Yeah, just about that.

Do you have a TV in there?

Fucking guy zone.

Don't come in here.

You should get a TV in front of the toilet and then hook it up to a Super Nintendo.

Yeah.

So you can play video games while you poop.

It's my fucking area.

Make it like an emergency man cave. Yeah.
That you can can retreat to this won't be a bathroom at all like a safety

room just make it one seat what do you mean like somehow don't even have an option to put the seat

up oh yeah i like that yeah urinal urinal oh yeah there's gonna be piss all over that seat

and i'm gonna sit in my piss and i don't care hey Hey, Lottery 30s Hank, father of three cat, PFT, weenie, and biker gang Max. Yeah, he's got to call the baby digs.
Penis is completely average. PFT, weenie.
That's a new one. My fiance and I have been together for years.
He's so sweet, smart, and I'm so excited to get married. There's just one problem.
I feel like I need to wear my dick out now. You won't.
We don't want to have sex at the same time of day. Oh.
I like to have sex at night before bed, but he likes to do it in the morning or during the day. When I try at night, he says he's too tired and just a sack.
When I asked him why he prefers to have sex during the day, he said it's because he's focused is he insane is this going to be a problem forever should I cancel our wedding I feel like it's probably addicted to jerking off well I was gonna say he probably expects to have sex in the morning and afternoon by like five o'clock it's kind of like uh like Stella won't eat her dinner every night until like everyone else is eating she's like, maybe I'll get some scraps. Maybe he's thinking like, oh, I'm going to have sex in the middle of the day, and then by like 5 o'clock he's jerking off.
He's like, not going to happen today. And then when you ask him at 8 o'clock, he's like, already jerked off.
Either that or what we're forgetting here is that sports are on at night. And so he might just – sometimes you've got to watch sports.
What are you going to say, Max? He also just wakes up with a boner. Yeah.
I mean, that's i mean that's got more yeah that's the clear answer he might not he already has a boner when he wakes up so he's like yes let's have sex but he might not even want to have sex he just wakes up and it's like i have to have yeah and here's the thing guys are really dumb so you can you could just train him i got training a wild horse you could start having sex start having sex every day at three o'clock then it's 3 15 then it's 3 30 you keep pushing it back he'll eventually just you know get used to it i got an idea you know the tiktoks where like the girlfriends wake up the boyfriends at like like 2 a.m and pretend it's the morning do that but then have sex with him after he goes to sleep 9 p.m yeah yeah when he goes to sleep then just like wake up be like hey it's the morning oh i like and then be like hit him with the sex and then it's like just kidding it's 10 o'clock oh i like that or maybe you get you just get six thrusts in the morning like it's compromised just put it in six times and then later on you get six more times yeah have sex twice uh all right that's crazy how old is this i'm saying i'm saying with six i'm saying if you got six thrusts two times a day oh i was making a joke that's a note If you have six thrusts. Two times a day, ho.
I was making a joke. Pass a note.
I'm saying if you have six thrusts, you can really make those last. You're not in your 20s anymore, Hank.
That's like six. Two times a day.
What are you trying to break a fucking record? How do I convince my 32-year-old fiance to stop wearing a Vietnam veteran hat in public? Really? He got this hat on a cross-country tip to the XFL championship game, and I hate it. He's in his 30s, so no one will believe he's a Vietnam vet.
This guy rocks. I think it's still weird and borderline disrespectful.
To summarize, my boyfriend bought a Vietnam veteran hat on a road trip that he took to the XFL championship game. I fucking love this guy.
He claims it refers to the vacation we took there last year when he proposed is that and that anyone that gets angry is dumb. Yeah, no, he is.
He's a veteran of Vietnam. He's been there.
Wait, he's proposed in Vietnam. Yeah, that that counts.
That's wild. His life ended in Vietnam.
Yeah, put him on the wall. Actually, wearing a World War One veterans hat because none of them are alive That's cool now? I don't know I don't know Well Billy you are kind of a World War I veteran I've seen the picture of the last human to die in World War I Yeah I'm a vampire And it is Billy This guy rocks You gotta keep her so just thank your lucky stars I like the guys that wear meme war veteran hats.
Those guys are cool.

Alright, last two. These are good ones.

My

fiance and I are getting married this August. Right around the

corner we need advice on what shoes he should wear for

his suit. He's wearing a light gray suit with green tie pocket

square. He thinks she should wear brown shoes.

I'm skeptical and think black would look nice

too. They want you to make the

choice. This is a real question

that we don't know the

answer to. No, make a

choice. You're right.

Do you – They want you to make the choice. This is a real question.
She's right, I guess. We don't know the answer to.
No, make a choice. You're right.
Do we look like suit guys? Light gray, brown or black? Light gray, brown. Brown.
Brown. It depends.
Indoor or outdoor? Black. Brown.
Oh, Jake. My gray suit's with black.
My blue suit's with brown. And everyone says, ew, look at this guy.
Exactly. But you don't wear pants, Jake.
True. I would say if it's outdoors, brown.
If it's indoors, black. Gray suit.
I'm just going to tell you what the first Google. What color shoes? Just make it match the belt.
That's the only rule I know. All right.
Last one. I recently was just ghosted by a guy who I have mutual friends with I'm going on a boat party this weekend with that friend group what is the best way to handle possibly running into him while out on the lake without an escape route you can just jump off I would say you gotta just in person ghost him you just gotta get so drunk that it doesn't matter wait what's the difference between ghosting and curving curving you're telling them ghosting you're just disappearing I think you gotta curve him you gotta curve him on the boat or just hook up with his best friend problem solved that's actually what you should do just make out with his best friend on the boat you don't even have to like the to like the guy.
You're on a boat. You're both going to want to smooch.
International waters, yeah. Yeah.
It doesn't count. All right, great show.
Billy, how many friends of yours from your football team do you still keep in touch with? Good amount. Numbers.
Six-nine. I won that.
I think we started at the same time, but I finished first. I think that was PFT.
Kind of like my love. Yeah.
All right, so PFT's got 69. 17.
21. How did you fall for that? He's not even mad.
He's not even mad. Well, you heard it with Max.
I should have. I thought I was fucking smart.
I should have said 69 of them. If Billy gets 69, Billy said if someone else gets 69 when he can't pick it, he's going to break the machine.
I mean, that would be great for content. Not really.
You guys want me to act rationally? No. What? All right, I'll go.
What did you go? You guys want me to act rationally? What did you go, Hank? 17. All right.
No, don't break the machine. Please don't.
You guys want me to? No, because we want to sell it. Oh.
Yeah. But more pieces.
You could sell more pieces. I had 69, remember? Yeah.
We could sell pieces of the machine. Billy, what's your number? 21? 21.
I hope I went on 21. I hope I went on 21.
Then I'm actually going to make you guys pay me. Jake, remind me I have to decide who we're going to have to pick this.
Nine. Nine.
Nine. Nine.
What was that? Remind me to pick someone to build the new machine. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
This week. Love you guys.
Jokic does harness racing in his horse racing. He doesn't actually get on the horses.
He's in a little carriage. He gets, like, pulled.
Was that a fact that you learned from a video?

Yeah.

I think we've discussed it once or twice on the show. I'll be coming for your love of truth.
I'll be coming for your love of truth. Take me, take me.

I'll be gone after I'm changed.

I'm not excited, but I can't stand it.

We'll be right back. Thank you.
Take on me. Take me out.

I'll be gone.

Give it to your tears.

Don't stay in love alone.

Just stay my life away.

You are the things I've got to remember.

You shine away. I'll be coming for you anyway.
Take on me. Take on me.
