Speaker 2:Yeah, you can say deandre, thal dude put some respect on it.
Speaker 1:You're already fucking me up. I got a whole thing written down for you.
Speaker 2:I'm not fucking anybody up. I don't know if it's a dating show or if I'm entering the Matrix red pill or blue pill.
Speaker 1:Three letters Joe.
Speaker 2:Dan, and I'm in the middle. You're going to have to start typing left and right, bro, it's a killer.
Speaker 1:Oh, let me let jeremy in this. Um. So it's my distinct honor to intro the tuna cup creation curator, the full-time vibesman, the riverside wrangler, the dopest, deandre thaw, and all-around great dude, jared deanda. Welcome to the show ah, thanks brother.
Speaker 2:Thank you, jason daylight.
Speaker 3:Ah, thanks brother, Thanks guys.
Speaker 2:Chasing daylight. Riverside, wrangler, riverside, wrangler, that sounds a little sus. I am married, I have two children. I don't know, Wrangler butts, drive me, nuts you know what I mean.
Speaker 1:My whole thing was you wrangle people to the Vic to show them a great time. You're an international vibesman, you know.
Speaker 2:I do. I appreciate that and you know I don't know how I feel about a dodgers fan and a raiders fan in the same room.
Speaker 3:Right now. I, I'm, I'm, I'm watching my back. Right now I might get strength. At least you're in the right colors.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I love it real men, we're black thanks for having me, dude, I I love what you do and you guys have just obviously more of a Vegas vibe. But you know we got linked up through the one, the only Cigar Don, former 702 resident, you know, actually he made me some sticks with the Deandrethal so I was going to get into one here in a moment. But what I love about how we met is through who we met, which is an absolute uh lightning rod of a human being, um Ryan Hardenbrook, and he's just, he's just a all around good dude. And as soon as we met I was like all right, sick, Like you literally were sick, but I was like let's risk it, I was sick.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I, I was sick and I let you know, and you were just a true player man in the game, just ready to go.
Speaker 2:We had a blast. All that being said, first and foremost, what I like about what this podcast is and what a lot of golfing culture is now is just you really, I mean you guys, tell me how many times have you been with a foursome and just really been bummed on one person, or all the people, because I would say on one hand, maybe even twice in general that I've really been caught off guard with like dude, that guy's a turd, or even that girl? Very rarely.
Speaker 1:I mean, dude, when I started playing golf, I remember I had one friend and I've told this story before, but I had one friend that played golf. He was married, he had two kids. He couldn't come out every weekend. I didn't have any kids at the time, I wasn't married. But you know, like I was booking the times and I was just like playing as a solo and there there was maybe one, maybe two times where it's like this guy's not fitting, the formula, you know. But for the for most part, everyone is super rad that plays golf.
Speaker 2:But you get. You get what you give, right If you're going to give that energy. And again, you gifted me, you know, play you eventually send to me but like your stickers, your vibe, the tacos, the play with play, with more soul and a sock with a hole, just that that really encapsulates, I think, what what this podcast is about, what your guys energy is about and admittedly you know, prior to us hitting record and going live here, we were talking about just like branding and energy and what's going on and and and you gotta be.
Speaker 2:You know, and and I think you know, for me golf is an absolute byproduct of just good energy and good vibes you talk about. Yeah, I live in Riverside California. It's basically West Arizona. It's hot here. But, but I have the, I have the honor of being part of a dope country club and I just want to share people.
Speaker 2:I want to share that with people and share them that you know, being a member of the country club doesn't mean to be you need to be stuffy. Club doesn't mean to be you need to be stuffy doesn't need to mean you need to be good at golf, necessarily, but damn it, I I love a good time and I really loved what thomas wrighton did with, uh, my creators involved in the ga episode.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I think that really captured it because he got to come see me at work in my office, which is, you know, I've been announcing formula drift for 21 years, got tattooed at the half time like, went and partied, played some golf with justin eldridge of number 33, my, my, yeah, my really good golf homie mike hibbett, which you guys got to meet like just vibes, vibes vibes, so totally, um, I we are not live on ig, so give me a a second to uh figure this out.
Speaker 1:Uh, jeremy or Dan, you guys want to take over for a quick second? I know you guys are the chat of the podcast, so yeah, I think.
Speaker 4:Uh, jared, I've heard a lot about your backyard. It looks pretty sick from here.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we're, we're in it, dog. Yep, 1956, mid-century, modern, it's uh, and everybody jumps off the roof right here.
Speaker 4:So yeah, I was gonna say are we gonna see one during the show? Maybe?
Speaker 2:uh, I'll, I'll text, I'll text tyson, he'll fire it up. T-bit, aka t-bone, my, my youngest. We've been hanging out all day. I got new, uh, I got new shocks. I got shout out king shocks. I got some dope remote reservoir for my truck. I'm doing a bro up, glow up on my truck, baby. I am in riverside, so here, hold on. Let me flatten this out, right quick.
Speaker 3:Yep, it needs to be like this, just a bit like this my sock, sock check fool.
Speaker 2:I just yeah, fool's gone, fool's gone golfing. How is that?
Speaker 1:how have we not done that?
Speaker 1:yo right, yeah, little mr even right little mr, even he's even at the turn and he gets all borracho and just gets all rick. Yeah, I love it, bro. I love it. Okay, we are on ig live now. I didn't hit a button, so we're good. Um, let's, let's go over. Uh, real quick, vgn. Let me play this banner real quick. Um, you know, dad is not home and I do respect what he does, but he's usually not drinking beer like me when we're doing this podcast. So, um, shout out the winners at uh, wild horse big matt, rob chapman, jason bannerslice and james lewis. That was a great tournament. I love the horse and next time you get out here, jared, that might, that might be the spot that we need to play. It's super quirky, it's. It's totally the place where you just go out, vibe out, have some fun, and we had a tournament out there for Vegas Golf Network this past weekend. Great time. It was fucking humid, which we are not used to, but it was a good time and we all enjoyed ourselves.
Speaker 2:Where's that? In conjunction with I know we played at Prim, but where's Wild Horse?
Speaker 1:Did you hear Prim closed? And I didn't even think about this. Prim is closing. Did you not see this? No, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, rip.
Speaker 1:Yeah, rip Prim dude. That's terrible news. They are building a spaceport in that area. So I'm assuming that's what's going on because, uh, our buddy adam, since adam simpson said it was the airport, so I think it. I think that they bought that land for the spaceport. I saw it on the news the other day because in 2029 we're all going to space, I guess. So, uh, fuck golf what you know have you guys not seen it oh you haven't seen that
Speaker 1:yeah, there it's a spaceport dude like I'm gonna have to find it was on the news. Yeah, you're gonna have to send me some info on that yeah, uh, I hope, I hope it reopens, because it's a fantastic facility. And uh, we heard that they showed up. The new buyers showed up and they were like get out of here, you have like 10 minutes to grab all your things and bounce, so we're going to the moon grab your shit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, exactly yeah, exactly, and you know it's. It's a, it's a nostalgic spot for me. That's where I met, that's where we met jared and that's I think that's the last round I played with Hardenbrook in town before my son was born. We walked it and it's like when you are in doubt of playing golf in Vegas or there's no team time is available, it's prim, prim, you can go play, prim, it's always there for you. It's like your grandma. You know, if you need somewhere to be, it's there for you and it's going to give you a hug.
Speaker 1:But the guy at the fucking bar sucks, but yes, he will eventually get you a hot dog or your drink, but it's going to take.
Speaker 2:Actually, that's why it's closing. They're like that bartender sucks so bad yeah enough of these frozen hot dogs.
Speaker 1:Close this place yeah, it's cold in the middle, it's cold in the middle, bro, it's cold in the middle.
Speaker 2:Yeah, dude, how do you fail at cooking a glizzy dude Like grow up Come on grow up.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, man, but it sucks. That's another death of Las Vegas golf courses. There has been restrictions put in place from the water district and we've lost Silverstone, we've lost Blackstone, we've lost black mountain. Now, prim, uh, there is no new courses in sight, other than potentially a second course at coyote springs, which I hope happens soon, because that'll be a trick that he just played.
Speaker 2:That didn't he. Is that where trey just played?
Speaker 1:yeah, yeah, yeah, trey's like trey's coyote club bro. He's sure Trey's Coyote Club bro.
Speaker 3:Trey's an honor member out there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, Got it. But yeah, unfortunately that's sad news for Las Vegas golf. But you know what is not sad news? Me putting $40 on Xander the morning of the final round of the Open at 2.5 to 1. Xander is a dog. Now, dude, you cannot deny Xander is a dog. He is a stick smith.
Speaker 2:He throws those sticks hard man and he wears some gangster-ass shoes. Dude, those are some prison-issued shoes.
Speaker 4:And I'm here for it.
Speaker 2:I'm absolutely here for it. I think the Descente gear looks harder Descent.
Speaker 1:Yeah, those were given by the state.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 2:And yo hold it down for SD. By the way, and like him, you know, he's a member of the farms in a rancho, santa Fe, which I've played, which I've probably shot the worst round of my life 25 mile per hour, winds, kind of spitty range range. It's annoying and I shot like 120 it's. And that's where phil mickelson's brother actually holds the course record, if I'm not mistaken. So we'll have to, uh, have to see that. But yeah, zander, zander's a g dude, san diego state member at the farms. He is an absolute g big time.
Speaker 1:You know, kyle mendoza, that's uh dan's homie. Out there he was yeah he's the pro the farms right.
Speaker 3:He used to be a teaching pro at the farms, but he's out of Hacienda. Now he's at Hacienda Country Club. Kyle's my homie. He's played a lot of golf with Xander. He has nothing but the best things to say about X Seems like. Xander's a good dude.
Speaker 2:Look at Dan just dropping it like X. He just calls him X, that's what he is.
Speaker 3:He's the fucking X-Man now, bro.
Speaker 2:Black Panther dog with shoes.
Speaker 3:He's like Black Asian Panther, he's like X forever, wakanda forever.
Speaker 1:I think after Valhalla, there was a huge weight lifted off of Xander. I mean, he's had numerous chances. He's a top 10 sniper. He's a top 10, like sniper, you know, he's always there and I think for him to finally get that win, just like the weight was lifted and dudes up and down game Uh, his putter is magnificent.
Speaker 1:I I always thought the first major he'd win was would be the masters, and when um hideki won and he hit that shot on 16 and it and it went into the water, I thought that was his. But I I can see xander going for the grand slam like he's always right, fucking there, dude, he's always there. He's been my favorite player since I saw him chase down, uh, gary woodland in hawaii uh, 2018, I think that was the first full tournament that I watched as a new golfer. And just, there is dog in him. He can hunt you down and I think, with his newfound confidence and calm, cool demeanor, like he doesn't have anything to worry about anymore, like you've got to watch out. He's a sniper dude, he'll take you down.
Speaker 2:Yep Number two in the world, right going into this.
Speaker 3:And he's got.
Speaker 2:Did he surpass Scotty? No, it doesn't really matter. I think it's like.
Speaker 1:He's 2K behind, I think in FedEx Okay.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, and Scotty, straight shit the bed. Dude, that was holy cow.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Right, holy cow. Yeah right, I mean not even scotty shit the bed, but like rory shit the bed, hardcore ludwig. I thought ludwig would be right there. He was not. You know, non-factor. I think I think this major in the open it was. It gave us like a shitty ass day where people were hitting drivers in the par threes and then it gave us like a cool day, like where you could score if you want to. And it gave us like the medium, like it's somewhat hard, where you could score if you want to. And it gave us like the medium, like it's somewhat hard, but you can do what you want to do, you can move around. But I think I think royal troon delivered potentially the greatest major of the year, because it gave us all aspects of golf. Like you're gonna face, uh, the atmosphere and the weather and you're gonna face, uh, people going low and you're going to. You know you're going to be in tough spots. I think I think it delivered at all. It was like I, I wish I watched more.
Speaker 2:I really, yeah, the rough, the rough, the rain, like seeing jt absolutely pull that one and have to re-rack, I was like, oh, that was, yeah, they are like us, you know again, just like, look at the stats, look at the numbers. You're bro, they're not all invincible. And like, and yeah, it was, it was fun to watch, I watched. I watched Sunday. I was in St Louis for a formula drift and I watched a little here and there and highlights and it was good because I didn't have to be at the track to like one ish in the afternoon. So I'd wake up and, yeah, I had terrible sleeping schedule, but yeah, that's the tough thing for me with the open.
Speaker 1:Like I'd love the open, I really do, but like I'm not trying to wake up and stay up all night or wake up at 1am. You know, like that's the hard part of the open and I love it so much and Bannon is so similar, so it got me so excited to get out there because it is a different type of golf. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:I look at you dropping bannon right there. Jeremy, seriously, just shut up. Okay, seriously, you're talking too much I need you to shut the fuck up okay just real catty, catty.
Speaker 4:I'm just taking it all in, just taking it all in sorry what you got on the open.
Speaker 1:Jared Jeremy, what do you got on the open?
Speaker 4:I mean, I watched a lot of. It was me watching it while I was asleep, but uh, yeah, I I think the biggest thing was like seeing JT. I thought JT was going to do a lot better and he was doing. He was playing pretty strong until he had a blow up round, I I mean over par, so that I I thought he was really going to hold onto it, but that was kind of disappointing. Tiger, kind of, was sort of how I expected. He actually didn't look very good to me. I don't know if you guys saw that too. It just I think the cold weather is tough for him.
Speaker 1:Did you see the, the, the post of his leg without the sleeve? Yeah, did you?
Speaker 2:see the post of his leg without the sleeve.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, that thing is like.
Speaker 2:Fucking Deadpool leg dude he's got a fucking Deadpool leg. Yes, that shit seems some shit dude.
Speaker 3:For real, that's some pirate leg right there. His leg looks like fucking meatloaf.
Speaker 2:That's some SoCal shit right there bro.
Speaker 1:Driving down hills man. Yeah, that's sad.
Speaker 2:Dude, I had a homegirl won't name names. She used to do marketing and PR at Genesis. When that shit hit the fan and I just texted her I was like yo, how's this going to go? And she's like we aren't touching that with a 10-foot pole. I mean because my man got Richter, obviously, and then he just went off the side and yeah. So hey it could have been worse if he was in a shittier car. You know whatever. Hey, genesis builds a great car the hyundai and the genesis.
Speaker 1:This podcast brought to you by genesis, come on down look, I'm, I'm selling, I'm selling chasing daylight podcasts baby dude, you, you're, you're a salesman, bro, you bring it.

Speaker 2:Well, first of all, I appreciate you watching.
Speaker 1:So again, joe and I I tune in when I can.
Speaker 2:I appreciate it. I got your text and I love it. Um, long story short is I've been announcing car races. Uh, this is my 21st year. I've been announcing a series called formula drift.
Speaker 2:Um, drifting is, uh, you know, a motorsport. That's subjective. It's not about getting the finish line first. Um, you have two cars on the track at the same time. One car leads, one car chases. The lead car adheres to the judging criteria, navigating the vehicle as close as possible to either front clipping points or rear clipping zones, where you need to drag the bumper without impeding the vehicle's attitude. Chase car needs to utilize the lead car as a moving clipping point. Um, formula drift is the premier international drifting sanction body.
Speaker 2:We started in 2004. On average, about a thousand horsepower per vehicle, everything from Toyota Supras to Ford Mustangs, to all new Nissan Zs to you know, you name it Dodge Vipers, all that stuff. So we have eight rounds in the championship here in our 2024 season. We just culminated round five of the pro, round three of the pro spec, which is like AAA, and then, in addition to that, I announced a series called Nitro spec, which is like AAA. And then, in addition to that, I announced a series called Nitro Cross, which is part of the Nitro Circus family.
Speaker 2:Sls Power Slap that whole Fiumi Dana White kind of conglomerate. So Nitro Cross is electric, 1,000 horsepower basically, motocross on four wheels. Pastrana races in it, there's Robin Larson, andreas Bakkerud, a lot of Europeans. Rallycross has a rich history in Europe and then in addition to that, I host content for Snap-on Tools, hot Wheels. I've done X Games. I've done video game voiceover for Need for Speed Pro Street. If you ever played that game, that's a throwback one. Ryan Cooper's been killing it all day. And then in between all that I play golf and drink and be a dad and be a husband.
Speaker 1:So love it dude love it dude. That's my short imdb or wikipedia page yeah, I just set up a tony hawk pro skater for my son. He's four and a half he's like I want to play this game. I'm like okay, okay, Fun, fun fun fact, fun fact.

I've known him since like shit 98, um, and, and he golfed a little bit back then. Um, but yeah, we, we were like where's it at? He's like do you look in the hole?

Speaker 2:So it's like it was a par three. It he's like do you look in the hole? I was like no, he's like, dude, it's in the hole. So it was like par three. It was probably like 150, 60 yards, but hey Still cats, that's awesome.
Speaker 1:It's so cool, man. When we went out at the Vic, me and Trey, to meet you, to play out at the Vic, which is a fantastic club, and you told, playing with, uh, justin Eldridge, I was like I know that name. I had to like refresh my memory and I watched some of his old clips and I texted my wife I'm like dude, like 13 year old me would be losing his, you know, and because I was a huge skateboarder and like and I was talking to Justin, number 33, shot of number 33, get your tee picks, umicks, um. But I was like costin was like the first one to do that. Right, and he's like yeah, we all thought costin was crazy. You know, like playing golf, like what are you doing playing golf?

He came from Soltech dog and like that's the core of it, right? So you get these skate heads that are now like, okay, I can't do kickflips and you know, like that's what's up.
Speaker 2:I'm not trying to break my ankles, bro, Like I'm not trying to break my ankles anymore, bro, like I'm not trying to break my ankles anymore, right, you know, I thought I thought I heard somebody on the roof, not santa claus.

We can still have a damn good time. You know what?

Speaker 1:Right, dude, that's I mean. That's the thing. I think that's one of the things why skateboarding and golf relate so heavily is because when you're skateboarding you have to be creative. I've always said skateboarders are like ninjas we're always looking for something to. You know, skate, or our eyes are always peeled, you know, and it's like that's why I embrace the shots behind a tree. If, like I, if I have to hit it next to a tree and my club's gonna break, like I want to make that because it's dope, you know, like I want to hit this to in the hole. You know, because it's creative and it allows you to be creative all the time and joe, you've been.
Speaker 2:You've been in my crib, sorry to cut you off you and I've golfed with um jagger eating out here, which he's the first ever american to medal, uh, in skateboarding. He's he last. Last year was the introduction of skateboarding in the olympics, so jagger won. He's a stick. He's a really good golfer. He's from arizona. He grew up you know skating and obviously life of jagger and that whole thing. Uh, sweetheart of a dude, nice young man, um, he came and played here at the vic couple times and gone from like right right over here there's the pool and it goes down to my driveway. There's a rail, it's like an S rail and he's like bro, I could skate that.
Speaker 2:So I was like yo, let's, let's, let's go golf, get like an ill photographer, either Dave Swift or Jay Grant, britain put it our house built in 56, but like a ill, like bel-air nomad or some shit out front, put them in like some ben crosby type palm springs vibe shit and and and you know 50, 50 board slide, I don't know whatever. Like yeah, blunt, like whatever you want, like on that shit would be dope.
Speaker 1:Sorry, just a just a parlay of like that's what's really cool, though. It's like like if you're at tobacco road and you know that deep bunker like I had to go hit a shot out of there, you know, because it's like I've seen this and I want to see if I can pull it off. It's like if you're going to, uh shit, uh, the eldorado, uh staircase yeah, I haven't watched yeahing videos in a long time Like Hollywood High or something like that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like I want to boardside Hollywood High. I want to hit a flop shot out of Tobacco Road bunker. That's fucking 40 yards down under the green. It's one of those things where you see these spots and it's like you know it's. You can be creative and you could pull it off, and that's that's the thing. We are not pro golfers, but we watch the pro golfers do things and we can pull it off Maybe, maybe one out of every 40 times, but you know we can do it and we can go to these spots, and that's what's so sick about golf and you're not going to break your face or your ankles.
Speaker 2:I hate to say it right, but I think we all, I think we all like kook slams. You know what I? Mean, but like you see the you see the really bad one, like America's not got talent. I'm like oh, oh, oh, you know like yeah. Like I can't watch the stupid fricking takeover videos. Man, these are actually. I do you know what Cause those kids are dumb Like like they lose their pants, their shoes go flying. I'm like fuck you, you deserve it, you piece of shit.
Speaker 1:No, I mean, that's somebody's kid.
Speaker 2:But like fuck.
Speaker 1:Do you remember Big Brother video number two? Did you watch Big Brother videos? I mean? Yeah, I mean I don't Dude that one I don't have the catalog. Oh man, dude, the dude's arm snapped the opposite way.
Speaker 3:And it was bad, bro, and my stepdad.
Speaker 1:I remember, yeah, brother, my stepdad said that might happen to you one day. So I'm glad I picked up golf, because it allows me the creativity to do what I want to do but also stay safe.
Speaker 2:And you guys are bringing in your own vibe. I mean Jeremy's drinking, Jeremy's drinking. What are we cranking on, dude? Tell me it's Okay.
Speaker 1:I thought it was.

And again, totally I, I know, I know you said we kind of had an agenda here so we're bouncing around, joe, so I'm kind of just commenting.
Speaker 1:No, I love it. No, I love it Go.
Speaker 2:Talking about traveling and then parlaying the golf. You know, like I'm trying to slowly integrate golf into like more car heads and there's a few that are out there that are like yo, like didn't know, you got like Malta told that story on, I think, malvin's podcast, where he's like in Brazil. My buddy Andrew Cannon, like he's Santa Cruz brand manager and like OJ and slime balls, and they're like bro, you're going to go golf, all right, cool. And then like here's Zion, zion or yeah, zion, right, right. And then you know you just get this cat and that cat and now it's like everybody golfs. So I'm trying to parlay which. I'm going to Seattle in a couple of weeks, two, three weeks, and it's our annual thing.
Speaker 2:My buddy Brian Parks he's an old homie, worked at a company called Hossport back in the day. He's an engineer, he worked at Meta for a while and now he's head of R&D at Lab Golf.

But I'm hard to impress because it's like it's one of those things where, analogously, I always say it's kind of like Top Gun, the movie where the new one the new one, and if people hype that thing up, I think the corniest damn thing was Tom Cruise being like hey, tom Cruise, here, all the studs you're about to see are all real. I was like really dude, I don't need to know that. Tell me on the end of it.
Speaker 2:It was like hey, stop Cruz here which is a total Burt Reynolds move, which is totally fucking dope.

Speaker 2:very valid point. Yeah, did any of you guys go see dead and code the sphere yet, vegas boys?
Speaker 1:I think we only got two more weekends left.
Speaker 2:Yep and uh, I'll tell you right now just, you know, little little bit of hallucinogens and a lot of alcohol. I had a damn good time, yeah, so we don't know if they're coming back either.
Speaker 1:You know. So I think the last, I think the last weekend is eight nine, ten if I, if I'm correct I think it might be that's the first weekend.
Speaker 2:It is the first one, yeah.
Speaker 1:So we get back from banding on the sixth I think, and I think it's eight nine. 10 is the first weekend of August and I'm like you know, under under your advisement. I'm like I. I need to try and go.
Speaker 2:It's a must, dude. I definitely cried. I cried, Dude. It's just insane.
Speaker 1:It's so enveloping.
Speaker 3:I can get mushrooms Joe.
Speaker 1:I've never taken mushrooms in my life.
Speaker 3:Come on, Joe.
Speaker 1:But you know I'm a fan of music.
Speaker 4:I'm a big hip-hop fan.
Speaker 1:Um, I just I've never, like I've never been down that hard with like the fucking the vibes you know you're not a deadhead, yeah I'm not a deadhead.
Speaker 2:That's the thing, you don't need to be a deadhead to enjoy this. I will tell you so. So two, so two things shout out. My boy, rob, jennings, lives in arizona. Cousins in the ig chat, oh hell yeah, clubs, um, cousin clubs. Chris, he is a sweetheart of human being. Just, chris, just drive over here, the kids are asleep, get over here. Um, uh, he's, he's a sweetheart.
Speaker 2:My boy rob, I invite him to a dead Co show when we lived in Arizona. So do the math, six years, seven years ago, dead Co, if you don't know, is a couple surviving members of Grateful Dead and then John Mayer at the helm. So John Mayer and Bob Weir share a birthday, october 18th, and they are like 20 years apart and they are just kindred spirits. It's cool, it's rad to watch. Blah, blah. I invite rob.
Speaker 2:My long, my, my best friend, mike wonderly, I've known him since high school. We go. My other buddy, ryan phillips. I got too fucking high. Um, I left way through. I just, I went hard in the paint early in the day, didn't sleep, I drank sangria, had some edibles, it was, it was, it was a thing, it was a thing. And uh, but rob, his first dead and co show. Now that dude, bro, he's flying by himself to denver and to wrigley to see the last like the last dead and co shows. And then they announced yeah, he's like, ah, shit, dude has seen probably 12 dead and co shows at the sphere now and he lives in Arizona.
Speaker 1:Wow.
Speaker 2:Wow, and my boy Josh, a good art. He was like a, he's a deadhead, like OG Jerry fan and he uh, he's probably only missed three, which was the weekend that we actually went which is sucks, but good, good art.
Speaker 1:All the jewelry that I wear, there's all good art.
Speaker 2:Yeah, dude, the algorithm is crazy, it listens I've been seeing good art on my shit lately, so it listens. Yeah, so that is listening, you don't. You don't need to be a deadhead to enjoy anybody at the sphere. You know like I mean, the eagles are coming yeah, yeah into maya or some. E like electronic, like group or band.
Speaker 1:I think you need to. As long as you appreciate art, you will appreciate it. You know um. I would love to go um with kids. It's tough but I think. I think that the the dead is going to have a better visual component to it than eagles will. Eagles will probably have better hard hitter like songs eagles if, if they, if they put the effort into it, it might be really good. Uh, the homie that's in vgn, uh, brian warner, he is uh, he's uh affiliated with warner brothers music, somehow. I don't want to speak on that, but he said there is a mini-sphere in Burbank where they test it all out.
Speaker 2:Oh, word, that's what he told me Well, my boy's a huge fish head and he's been to 200 shows for fish. Sorry, I'm a pirate. I was at the forum with him for 199, his 199th. And then he went to santa barbara bowl and he said 199, the one that I went to him went with him too. He said that was the best show he's ever been to. So I was a humble brag for that. But he went to all of the four. No, he went to all three, or he went to three of the four. And I don't know if you saw drew carrie's whole thing, where he was out of his gourd on shrooms and he said he was. He said he was. Uh, what did he call? Uh, he was, he was edging. He was edging the whole weekend for four days because he did god, he did god, he did god level shrooms. And this is, this is public knowledge. Look it up, roll it, roll the tape. Roll the tape. He said he was edging the whole week.
Speaker 3:Let me look for that clip edging hey jamie, jamie, throw up the clip yeah, so uh, and one of my friends I won't name names.
Speaker 2:he works in the golf space. Amazing human being. Um, his, his, uh, his son's godfather is is drew care, so he was with them for one night and he says, yeah, we had a great time, we had a good time. So, all that being said, just go Sorry to pivot on music. I think all that comes together is like fashion, you know, and there's this cross-pollination of golf. You know, music, kind of music, vibe. Oh J5, there we go, Dude.
Speaker 1:I picked this up the other day cross-pollination of golf, you know music, kind of music, vibe. Oh, j5, there we go. Okay, I picked, I picked this up the other day, 30 bucks used, original 1996 pressing, 97 pressing j5 turntable. What do you have? Some shit, I'm looking. I'm looking at something else I need. I need that like like. I need that like full console, like you have, and like just like it's built into the world.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but no dog like my, my turntable is a 1980s technique, not like, not uh like 1100s or anything crazy they last forever. Yeah, last forever man and then and then like a shitty, like something wood receiver. And then I have nice mb court speakers. I'm probably gonna get some jbls here in a minute, but it I mean I have homies. Yes, have you ever listened to like macintosh fucking amplifiers?
Speaker 1:well, yeah, I mean, but there I mean macintosh.
Speaker 2:Is that like that's?
Speaker 2:that's the one, but there are other things, like dude, oh yeah, but my, I have a. I have a homie in wisconsin. He has just this amazing room. He had a dude come in and it like had a totem, like this metal pole and he's, and this dude came in and put dots around the room. Dude, it is insane. I, I bought them the, uh, the daft punk, random access, memories, bass, free vinyl and it's this all-white one and it's just it's. You're just like holy shit. And then he got the. What did he? Oh, he got this fucking crazy box set of Steely Dan Asia, which is. There's only so many. It's a. I can't remember what it's called, but you can't get it. I really want it. I love steely dan. I'm a huge steely dan fan, which I've never seen him. By the way, documentary you should watch is the documentary about asia, spelled aja. Watch that about walter becker and um and uh, donald fagan I need to get you this mix, man.
Speaker 1:I need you to a really good mix. It's fantastic super yacht rock vibes from the that's where I live.
Speaker 2:I, I look, I look like a bootleg jason momoa, but I'm I'm all about that, yeah I gotta find it, bro.
Speaker 1:It's on, like one of my, like past three computers somewhere, or on a hard drive somewhere. But, joe, you talk about favorite I talk.
Speaker 2:I asked about favorite course. I'm assuming the way you doed. I mean, if Bannon was a girl you'd leave your girl for Bannon, the way you talk about it.
Speaker 1:You can't say that All the holes, all the views I mean.
Speaker 2:Just that tree gets you rock hard. I get it, I understand. The tree just really does it for you.
Speaker 1:It's more than a golf course. I'll tell you that it is a a spiritual journey through the uh vibes of cross of the golf world. It is all right, it's magic, it is. There's nothing. I mean, I know that there's other courses out there, right like I've never been to scotland, I've never been ireland, but I don't think there is a place with the curated like collection of something that is as magic as bandit, because it has something that fits all of your needs. And, uh, the food's great. Uh, the small town is fantastic. Um, you're along the pacific ocean, which I'm a big, I'm west coast all day. Yep, tupac rider, kendrick lover, like to be on the pacific and hit golf shots with that uh, spectacular view and that incredible course design is he on the Bannon Tourism Board?
Speaker 2:I know people love it, joe is very romantic about Bannon Dunes.
Speaker 3:Here's my conundrum.
Speaker 2:I don't want you mushrooms to not know what feels so good.
Speaker 3:Why say no when it feels so good to say yes? Is that what he said?
Speaker 2:yeah, yeah my body, my body. Now, though again, that's kind of a rhetorical question about your favorite um mine. Thanks for asking, um, I would say the vic bro, all bro, All day. I love the Vic I mean that's, I call it the mistress and my wife knows this. Like I leave my crib and I drive past the thing. I was like I'll be back, girl, we're good, I'll be back.
Speaker 1:You have a, you are in a place to where you can just go play a fantastic spot and just vibe out all day. You're like what a world we live in man.
Speaker 2:The Vic is my gym and it's cool to go there because it does have a great practice facility. If you don't know Victoria Club, it's.
Speaker 1:And a great tuna cup. Go get the tuna cup. Add onions tomatoes, pickles, jalapenos.
Speaker 2:Crushed up chips. It's the John dude john dude, yeah, you get double or single depending on the protein. All killer, no filler baby and uh I tried to make it and it was not the same at all no, yeah, it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 2:yeah, I haven't been down there in three weeks. I punched a beam in my house and I like fractured my hand. So I first time playing, I played with eldridge like three weeks ago. I punched the wall, like on a friday, had to play them on a tuesday and I literally swung with one hand. It was, it was. It's not the prettiest, but we had to shoot this video and it's it's gonna be sick. Just stay tuned. By the way, number 33 golf with flavor. Just yeah, stay tuned, stay close, stay close, kids. But I would say my favorite course right now is last year.
Speaker 2:I go to New Zealand every year and it's this it's called Te Ari and it's not Tai Idi, it's Te Ari, t-e space, a-r-a-i and I butch Maori. Some people say Maori, but the Maori culture, which is, you know, polynesian and you know New Zealand, kiwi. I love New Zealand, I would move there yesterday. Just great people, fantastic culture, if you like, seafood, amazing Outside of that, like not huge culinary giants, but beautiful part of the world. Um, but this course is absolutely insane. Cork, crenshaw Um, they, just they. It's been the. I can't remember which one he played, but they have two courses now.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the dope is just opened.
Speaker 3:I think, yeah, it's, it's insane dude, it's you don't know where the fairways end and the greens start.
Speaker 2:It's unreal and it rained. It rained on us on like eight and nine. We posted up at the and roll, roll the tape again. The practice facilities dope. The accommodations are right on the range, these like everything's low-lying natural wood. You go like to the comfort station and, um, it's not, it's not private. They have, like you know, bubble water, still water. You know this. We got some sandwiches and then it rained on us. We waited probably 15 minutes, went back out, it dumped on us and it was a fucking blast. Dude, huge green, you're over. Oh, dude, I I. The way you romanticize bannon, this place is amazing. So I'm going back to new zealand again, as I do every year. Um, my buddy mad michael get december when is the stop?

Speaker 1:Like it's, it's well. That's the thing, though, if you're down there, you got to play them all dude, because Probably I mean for us normal folk that doesn't go down there every year you got to drop it, you got to play them all.
Speaker 2:That's some dough, but like, because I paid for my round, paid for accommodations and with my buddy Carl Taylor he's an English bloke that works for Hoonigan. He's a good golfer, I think he's probably six. He played in England and then moved to the States and he's part of this. Players, uh, uh, car crew and like show and stuff. Really we had a great time, really really good dude. If you look back to last December on my stories, um, I call him the, the, the bootleg, jason Statham Um, he's like, yeah, but uh, we're gonna, we're gonna do it again, we're gonna run it december you know, what you need to do, bro, is is you need to get down to barn boogle.
Speaker 1:You've been down there down in tazzy. Oh, oh, barn boogle, bro, barn boo, what is that?
Speaker 2:I. I feel like that's a. That's a that's illegal in 49 states yeah it's.
Speaker 1:it's probably illegal in Riverside for sure, because it's too dangerous for anyone out there, but it looks sick bro.
Speaker 3:Yeah, barn boogledoons in Tasmania.
Speaker 1:Barn boogledoons.
Speaker 3:Also, Jared, have you played Jack's Point? I think it's down there by Queensland.
Speaker 2:So, unfortunately, I'm not playing down in queenstown. There's town. Yeah, that's okay, I knew you meant um, queenstown. Dude, I'm telling you, and like you know they, we went to hobbiton 2019. I took my family. When you go to queenstown, you like flying through these mountains, and then these, these mountains, just go into this beautiful cobalt blue lake and then there's a golf course on an island in the middle of this damn place. Dude, unreal.
Speaker 2:So I haven't played down in Queenstown and I I tried to golf my homeboy Hugo. He's a Kiwi, he's friends with Mad Mike. He lined it up. He introduced me to Julie Crenshaw Ben Crenshaw's wife because he chartered boats during COVID, so he was stuck in Hawaii on a yacht and he would take care of people and he met Julie and her family and them and all that. So he lined it up and they just opened, like two months prior, so basically like a preview, and they had it lined up for like 100 bucks. Now it's like 500. By the way, before I forget, yeah, speaking of ryan, ryan and chucky and hugo golfed with them.
Speaker 2:Cavit citrus farms I know I was gonna, yeah, I was gonna.
Speaker 1:Just I knew you were going there.
Speaker 3:You've played there already.
Speaker 2:Yep, dude, so sick, and right now it's a value. You'll hear the reviews saying it's a little immature, but the best way I can describe it, if you're a car guy at all, is it's basically like a clapped out rat rod of a car. That's like it. That's like it's got some rust on it, because they and then hear me out, I'll finish, I'll finish and then I'll tell you.
Speaker 3:So it's like a rust.
Speaker 2:It's a rusty car with like a dope high horsepower engine with disc brakes, really good coilover, suspension, dope, strange engineering back at like just tight and right, because you, you kind of go through and they're still building the houses and supposedly they're selling for like a mil or two and they're like 700 square foot spots.
Speaker 2:And they're building this. You know, they have the squeeze, which is the nine hole. They're building another 18. They have the 18. And, dude, one of the hardest holes I think it was I want to say it was like 14, 15. And it's like this split fairway that you hit into mars and then the green is like protected. They put the pin like in this cove, and I'm like what, how, and I can't wait to play it again. But right now it's only like 200 bucks, 250 with cart and the comfort station.
Speaker 2:You pass it four times.
Speaker 1:Ill dream it's about to be double.
Speaker 2:It's about to be double easy and I would say in two years it's going to be double, if not even a year. Yeah, yeah, so sorry, thanks for coming to ted talk, guys. I'll see you later, no totally dude, that's.
Speaker 1:That's high, high on my list. I would love to get to cabot Citrus, because I know once that second course opens up it's going to just Game over.
Speaker 3:It's going to blow up for sure. Yeah, track man's on the range Like every spot outside.
Speaker 2:How? Was the cookie. How was the cookie? Cookie was de-so I took like 10 when I left because I had to go catch my flight.
Speaker 1:Have you had the ram till cookie?
Speaker 2:oh, hell yeah, did you buy one? I did. Oh, thank you so much, dude, that means a lot of course, of course.
Speaker 3:I saw that you had them out and I picked up that khaki one with the with the black deandre thong, yeah, what is it shout out?
Speaker 2:print house uh dot 144 right, yep, my boy, nate hamilton, I know, I know, I know you tried to work with them. It's all good like it's all love. It's all loved up of course, yeah yeah, nate nate. Nate's a great guy I'm actually. Chris forsberg is texting right now. He's like when is summer back? He's not a golfer. He would be terrible at golf, chris, isn't? He's like we're gonna go mad mike summer curious, when did you?
Speaker 1:get into golf like when did you jump in? Oh, isn't working. He's like we're going to go. Mad Mike Summer Curious, when did you?
Speaker 2:get into golf. When did you jump in? It was a cold night, october 19th 1978. The wind was blowing. The wind was blowing. It was easily wind. I played in high school. I wasn't good. I grew up in Poway, california. I was born in Northern California, a small town called Cupertino. They have a company called Apple there. I don't know if you've heard of them Never.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and then parents got divorced, grew up in Poway and I graduated in 96. So Charlie Hoffman was a year ahead of me. So when he graduated, when I was a junior, he was a senior and it was more of. I was a latchkey kid so my mom just put me out there and I just got to golf. There's a car, a course called oaks north, it's three nine holes and rancho bernardo and uh, and I just played, it was fun, it was cool.
Speaker 2:And my grandpa, my home home course that I grew up like my youngest, is san vicente country estates in ramona, california, and that's that's like my youngest is San Vicente Country Estates in Ramona, california, and that's where my grandpa, similar to our situation, had a golf cart. We'd go down to the range and play and so I played in high school and then I picked it back up because my boy, bert Neal, he lives in Arizona. His home course is Las Colinas out in Queen Creek, arizona. He was like, hey, man, I'm going to pick up golf again. It was like, sweet, we're in Gilbert, arizona, cool, he does. He just when he does things he like, goes and finds all these assets. So introduce me to sub 70 homies. All this, all that. He's a member at Chaparral pines and the rim club up in payson, arizona, which is beautiful, um, and I was like, okay, let's do it. So he got me back into golf and he wasn't even a golfer. Now he's like he just shot. I think he shot even or two over the other day or one over the other dude, unreal.
Speaker 2:And he's just such a sweet dude. And his son, his son just got, his son is entering his. He's entering 10th grade or no, 11th grade, 11th grade, I think, junior year. He just got back from this crazy euro trip. He just played old course, new course, dude, crazy. He just played all these crazy courses over there and he's he's scratched, he's 16, he's 16, so I think he's entering his junior year. So, yeah, braid, look out for braden neal. And they put a simulator in their front room. So he's got a track man and it's pretty dope and that's what I love about it. It's like it just takes all kinds man and that's why we're yeah fucking talking about this.
Speaker 2:So any voyeur like you know, like, if you know, when I post this or whatever it's, I just want people to be excited about it, man because it's a connector man.
Speaker 1:It is a massive connector and a massive community builder. Like when I started playing golf, I knew one person and I now I know too many people that I I can't play golf with everyone anymore you know, uh, but it's. It's a good problem to have you know, because I've met so many incredible people through the game of golf.
Speaker 2:It's the best dude, it really is the absolute best, and it's fun because then it'll expand. So I said metaphorically as you go through life Jeremy, seriously shut the fuck up. Let me talk.
Speaker 2:So, I'll just mute. When you go through life, life, you show your membership cards, right. So, and the more membership cards that you align with you, the more you're going to talk about and, and it's okay, you don't. And and I could, I could talk to. I could talk to the wall, obviously, um, but married kids, dog guy, golf guy, like art, um, tattooed, like you know. You could get real deep. You know like, oh, my grandpa fought in world war ii, or my parents are divorced. You get real, real deep. Or you can go surface level and be like, oh, dude, you wear black shirts, big black shirt, yeah, so but, when you start overlapping, that it's cool.
Speaker 2:And then, like, on the course, you have four hours to walk, ride, listen to music, find out, does that playlist suck? Hey, you know, like my wife, she, she cooks 99 of time. She's an amazing cook. Um, the kindest way I say to her if I don't like something she makes, this is yeah, I wouldn't order that again. That's my way of saying like, yeah, I didn't really like that, but she's, she's an amazing cook. So it's very, very rare that I'd say that. But when you golf with somebody, you're like I don't know man, I just I, you know, hey, next, you know like man you know, next, can we, can we do that?
Speaker 2:But golf is a connector and it's a cool equalizer and yeah, I'm so in love with it. And people that don't understand don't understand and you can't talk to them about it, because if you're not showing that membership card, don't even try. That's the way I feel. I don't know. Do you guys feel that way? Are you trying to be ravenous about getting people more involved in golf? No no no Joe's mute.
Speaker 3:Joe went mute.
Speaker 2:Joe went mute.
Speaker 1:I'm not big in getting new players into the game. I'm big about getting the right people into the game. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Joe's got a remix. He's got to figure out his audio. Dan, what's your take?
Speaker 3:You're having some audio issues. Yeah, I'm not necessarily ravenous about getting more people into the game but, like I agree with Joe Moore's more like getting the right people involved, because I'm at the age now where I just want to be around cool people and just laugh and have a good time. It's not about competition golf with me anymore. Um, it's not about, you know, tournament golf too much. It's just about, like Joe says a lot and it's very cliche on the show, but it's about the moments and he's he's absolutely right about that shit. I've learned to just really just take a step back and enjoy the four hours, five hours or whatever it is on the golf course, because you know at any time you know I might not be able to, I might not wake up the next day. You know so every second that I can spend not working and enjoying life and enjoying life and playing golf with good friends and guys that I love and people that I want to be around.
Speaker 3:That's, that's what what I'm about right now on the golf course. You know, if you want other people to come on the golf course and people want to grow the game and all this stuff, that's good, but also you've seen a lot of these viral videos that go around of these kids going out there and doing all this stupid shit. I've seen one with this kid three putted and all of a sudden he's burying his club into the green. He like took like three big hacks out of the green and that's the shit I don't want to see. That's the new golf. That's the girl in the game that I wish that they would shrink. Um, so yeah, it's, it's. You know, I'm just all about having good times with good people who do you want listen to this podcast?
Speaker 3:anybody who's down to listen anybody who's down to listen to opinions of four guys who just love golf. You know, we don't generally bash anybody, we don't, we're not, you know I could bash.
Speaker 1:I bash patrick, can't like occasionally, but other than that, yeah yeah, you do bash.
Speaker 2:Patrick can't leave his brother doesn't even like him, right? Is that the urban legend? Yeah, we all like the aaron rogers of golf.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, no shit. Yeah, we all love golf, we all love the different aspects of it, especially as of lately, with the different apparel companies that are coming around, how golf has molded into from like a staunchy, stiff, collared sport to Jared, sure sounds like a soul golfer. Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure To um, you know.
Speaker 1:I don't like you know it's it's a whole revolution now.
Speaker 3:Golf's not, as you know, as blue collars, you know stiff start shirts, as it was anymore. You got a lot of street influence, a lot of different walks of life and different arts that are coming into golf. I think it's pretty awesome. I love where the golf space is right now, with the exception of a few things Patrick Cantlick Patrick Cantlick Too slow. His little face just needs to change.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I'm like opposite of that, though. I'm like the. I remember golf as a kid, going up to the same place in Utah with my dad, the smell of the bacon and the breakfast cooking in the morning and the grass, and I still that's how I hold on to the same thing. So I'm a slow evolver. I think Joe's probably had the biggest influence on me since meeting him and and playing, but I'm still. I'm an old school person. I just stick with my memories as as a kid and how I've and it's so. I'm not, I'm not all about growing. The game and the cool apparel, which I think is totally cool, I think it's awesome, but not it's not my jam, but slowly maybe getting into some of it, probably from these two guys.
Speaker 2:So I'm I'm sort of like you're kind of more of a traditionalist.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I would say so. Yeah, but have no problem with the way directions go, the, the, the golf is going. It's just more. I'm more of a get off my lawn like get off my. This is my god. This is how I want to interpret golf and and play golf. You can do how you want, but make sure you rake your bunker or make sure you fix your ball mark.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but that's, but that's like holding a door open for people like dude I. I just kind of vented to my wife driving from costa mesa to riverside up and over went.
Speaker 2:It's the californians, here we go the amount of driving the 55 to the 241, to the 91, brother, like it was, and I didn't know I had to be up somebody's ass in order to like I needed like hitch, like do the elephant walk to the car in front of me, or for somebody not to cut me off, and I'm like, without losing my shit and my 10 year olds like next to me, I'm just like dude, I can't like come on man. So anyways, it's, it's more manners. I, I think you know jeremy, like, uh, you know to, to your point even to dance, to like the snapping, the, the doing that and all comically throw a club. But I'm really not mad, you know, like it's, it's more just like. Oh, I know I'm better than that, um, but it's never like, never dire, you know, because guess what? We're wash, rinse, repeat, we're gonna do it again.
Speaker 2:You know I'm golfing tomorrow with um, this dude, sean milan, sean's, meet, he's others member, shout out to others dudes, great crew. I don't know if you've ever golfed with any of the others events in california. They have an arizona crew, they got a california crew. They do like the three, six, nine, it's three clubs six beers, nine holes yeah, it's great um sean makes bacon.
Speaker 3:I met him at a colorado golf block.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he's bringing out bacon tomorrow, dude. He's leaving at 4 am to be here. And then my buddy, willie Luna. Willie is a like. He was basically like second-tier pro Supercross guy. He's like behind Cole Seeley, good cat. He's now like really accomplished videographer and photographer. Just proposed to his lady which is kind of cool, but going to see him tomorrow. But he's bringing out this dude, art, never met him. We're going to play tomorrow and get down at the Vic and yeah, yeah, I love the diversity of people.

Speaker 2:So he got better through golf because through his kids he would take his daughter to the range and take lessons and he's just like huh and. And he got better and better. But it's the.
