MattYeah, he would have been there tonight.
Garson Giveaway And Masters Hype
JoeI mean, what a comment. What a comment. What about big baller brand shoes? What a comment. Big baller brand. Oh man.
MattUh, Patrick Reed is coming back to Augusta, not as a member of Live Golf. So that's going to be interesting to see how well he does around the other fellas that are still on Live.
JoeUh oh, well, we could talk about that. No, you're going over the topic. Sorry.
MattMy uh Maria Jose Martin won the Anwa, the Augusta National Women's Amateur. Uh Asteri Talley had another bad stretch of holes, and I mean she dominated the first two days. But that Augusta was another. It'll get you. It will get you. Honorable mention stories. Uh Laura Coughlin won the Shadow Creek event. Can't remember the title sponsor. My apologies to them. Aramco. Aramco, thank you. And she shot seven under for the tournament. And I think Nellie was three under, birdieing the last the hole, the last hole to get to that number. So Shadow showed its teeth. Showed its teeth. It looked fantastic on TV, and everybody got to see just exactly how difficult those greens can be.
JoeSuch a sick place. Yeah.
MattUh, and then personally, Joe played some golf. Yeah.
JoeHe was there. I'm not good anymore. I'm not good. No answer.
MattHe says he's not good. He's asking to be demoted to the hearts division. I said no.
JoeYes, demote me, please. Yes.
MattI said, I said, absolutely not. Um, I do that, and you're gonna go out there and shoot a 78, and I'll never hit it.
JoeIt's not gonna happen. I have to shoot a 78 to win all the time. That's the problem.
MattJeremy and Dan joined him that was at Revere. And then I got in some golf with Julian at Paiute. We got in nine holes at Sun Mountain, and uh then we played TPC Vegas on Sunday. I tell you, Easter Sunday, if you're a golfer and you don't have a family and you're not into celebrating Easter, that's a hell of a day to be on the golf course because there was nobody there.
JoeNobody.
SPEAKER_05Oh, you should have told me.
JoeI didn't know you were playing golf. I don't get invited anymore either.
MattWell, most of the time it's like, no, I've got I've got yeah, but you never know.
JoeThat went off. That went off. The kids were at my mom's all day, and I had picked them up at five. I had all day. Oh, I watched a bunch of documentaries about Fifies and things. You know my schedule. Birds, birds and fifies.
MattOh, that was the other topic. Uh, Jason Dan is Malbongear is getting, you know, a lot of uh chatter. Oh, yeah. So we can talk about that. But first up, I want to hear about your golf outing. That's what I want to hear about. I know how Joe and and uh Jeremy and Dan played. I I want to hear Joe talking about golf again.
JoeYeah, I mean, I lost a full sleeve of balls by the time I got to the fairway on uh number two on the ball. A sleeve of balls by the second hole. Yeah, I the IT'd off on one, and I didn't warm up, of course, which we don't we don't we don't warm up, but uh hit a good one. I thought mine shouldn't have been gone, really. Yeah, it shouldn't have been gone. We just didn't find it. But hey, a ball's a ball. We didn't look too long. Hey, it's gone, it's gone, it's whatever. I got plenty of sleeves in the garage, so uh left that one behind. Uh, I can't remember do I I still play that whole like shit the rest of the whole. I still play like shit, and then I just pushed one out into the desert on number two, lost that one. Uh, and then I dropped next to Dan or Jeremy, I can't remember, and then I just fucking pushed that one out to the right, too. And I thought we were gonna find it, but that was gone. Couldn't find it. We didn't spend a lot of time because it's just the ball, you know. Who cares? It's just a golf ball.
SPEAKER_05Tell you, don't have anymore.
JoeYeah, I know that's that's the thing. I only I only had like you know, six or eight, and that's one of those things. Like, did I bring enough? Because we're we might we might have to get out there in the desert and start picking some out, you know what I mean? Which I actually I preemptively did on number two. I when I was finding them, I was like, this might be the round I might have to use some of these. Desert balls, um, yeah, and then number three, I hit a I hit a killer drive. Uh that was actually I played that hole very good. And then three, I had a great tea. For me, it's just you know, just rusty. And I just like I can get off the T pretty well, I can get to the green fairly well. If I miss the green nowadays, like I just can't chip. Like, I have no I have no feeling in my hands, like it's all gone. I can put I my speed was great. I'm just like worried about chipping, and it's what sucks is because it's like you know, I I have statues across the country where yeah, you know, this guy flopped it, flopped it in, he's a chipski in her boy, he you know, he's he's the doctor, and you know, it's just it's depressing, it's kind of depressing, honestly.
MattYeah, go book you a$1,500 lesson.
JoeYeah, and then I'll I won't be able to attend because I gotta go to uh you know pick up the kids and I gotta do this, you know. It's it's just one of those things, which you know, when you get older, you get older, and you know, those things happen. And I might become a Richard Red Drop player, I might just be punching fucking seven irons around the golf course at some point, little chip little chip runners, and I I don't want to become that, I don't want to be that guy, but I'm it might happen at some point. It might ten I've been in the I've been in the backyard too. I've been in the backyard too. I've been and everything's just fucking cement, cement bounce blade.
MattYeah, it's just gone.
JoeIt's one of those things. I just don't have the time, and it's it's depressing, it is. Why is it depressing? You don't care? I don't care, but it's like I care about hitting dope shots. I don't care about golf score, I want to hit good shots, you know, and and and you know that was my thing, you know. They go low, we go high. And uh it's not when we when I go high, they go low. Do you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_08When you try to go high, they're going low now.
JoeThat's very accurate. But yeah, we'll figure it out.
SPEAKER_06Go butcher show.
JoeBut yeah, but it was fun, it was great to get out there. Like, I mean, obviously, you know, it's been it's been a while. Um yeah, man. I need to just play more. I need to get more. I need I I mean I have it in me, of course. I just need to get the feeling back because it's gone. Like, this is all gone.
MattIt's just gonna take one shot. You'll hit it and you'll be good. Yep. Back. One shot and you'll be good. Yeah, Julie and I got out at uh Paiute uh after our fitting event there on Friday, Thursday, Thursday, no, Friday. Well, what's it Thursday? Third Thursday. Uh and it was crazy because there was there was no wind at Paiute, which is wild, absolutely wild. We I mean the the range flags were not moving at all. And uh so we got out uh afterwards, and it was right around two o'clock, and we thought we were gonna get out by ourselves and just blaze around the course, but it was packed. Got paired up with two other guys, which Julian had fit one of the guys before, and they were super nice, but what one of the gentlemen just could not stop doing this. And like on the fourth hole, fourth or fifth hole, I think it was like the fifth hole, I was like, I said to Julian, I go, dude, he won't stop, you know. It's like, and I'm like, I I normally can like tolerate that and and I'm focused and don't care, but for some reason it just like got on my nerves and it just like hopped on and it's just right on that nerve, you know. And uh the next whole I I backed off the t-shot a couple times, you know, and and because they're just and then the my approach shot, uh I I was addressing to hit it, and they pull up and start back off. Well, okay, walked up, dressed, backed off. You know, and then the third time I went and they started, I went over, I said, okay, enough. Hey guys, can you just stop with the chat while I'm hitting? I don't care what you talk about any other time or how loud you are anywhere else, but when I'm getting ready to hit, can you just you know, and I felt bad, you know, because it was like there they were really nice guys, and uh, but it was like, dude, my god, yeah, just just stop, you know. The backing off should have been a key, but you know, it happens. But Pyute, as always, absolutely fantastic. The best doesn't get much fantastic conditions, course was in spectacular shape, and the greens roll a little slower at two o'clock in the afternoon when it's sunny and no wind. They're they're not as smooth and slick as they are in the morning. Uh Julian said, you know, the last couple times he's played out there, it's been in the AM. And uh, I my putter was on fire. Absolutely. I think I had 12 putts on the front.
JoeJust it was that robotic knee. Oh staying stable, it's heavy.
Headlines Tiger Talk And ANWA
MattStay stable at the left side. Yeah, and then the other golf I played was at TPC on Sunday, and another great round. That course is doing good. We we heard rumors or talks of that TPC was closing to redo their greens, and uh those greens are 30 years old, and they've had some issues with them in the past, and uh they were gonna invest, shut the course down, and redo the greens, but that is not happening. That is not happening. So if you heard through the grapevine that TPC was shutting down to redo their greens, not happening. So that is a good thing.
JoeGet out there how you look at it. Depends how you look at it.
MattYeah, also heard some really cool stuff. Real well, I'm gonna say cool stuff, heard some really good stuff about uh cascada that we can chat about uh amongst ourselves.
JoeOh, secret cascada news.
MattAnd shout out real bogies. I don't know if you guys are following real bogeys on.
JoeI saw him follow me, and he I saw you were posting and you're helping him. Yeah, yeah.
MattUm Young Kid Jose and him and Johnny are are they have the account Real Bogeys and they're posting a lot of golf content. Only been playing the game two years. Uh has a really smooth golf wing. You know, he's hitting his seven-iron 175 yards. Just I mean, it's it's amazing. He's gonna be a force here in a couple years once he learns how to play this game. But uh, he followed the show, so want to thank him for that. It was fun working with him and helping him out a little bit with his putting stroke. And uh we can't co-host on YouTube. Oh, yeah, yeah.
JoeBush is doing a thing. Yeah, I but it's you know, it's just Bush being Bush, UPS guy.
MattI mean, hey, Taste of the Master showed up, so yeah. Finally, last year A-OK in my book, right now.
JoeYou were not like you weren't last year, though.
MattI got another box coming from Callaway.
JoeIf that one shows up, I'll be very went through his little department. He probably stole it last year. He's in Alabama, probably went to his hub and he stole it. That's why we had it here last year.
MattAnd the box was pretty sick. I mean, it was it says taste of the masters all over it, so they know what it was.
JoeYeah, we're gonna you're gonna have to cut it into four so we can hang them in the backgrounds.
MattOh, it's already at uh Republic Recycling Services.
JoeOh, well done. We could have sold that. We could have sold that. Yeah, it was trash.
MattCould have a healthy environment. I recycle so all right, let's get into some master.
JoeRecycle, put it on your wall.
MattYeah, uh, I'm gonna start right out the gates. Who do we think is winning this year? Run the bag now.
JoeNo, we got golfing dads in the Instagram chat.
SPEAKER_05Hey, what's up, fellas?
JoeThis is our first viewer in there that said something.
JeremyI think Justin Rose or DeShambo.
JoeI'm liking Justin Rose a lot. Rose or DeShambeau, huh? I like Justin Rose a lot. I like Ludwig. I like, I mean, Gary Woodland sitting right there with all the metrics. I don't think he can do it again. Like he just won, so it's kind of okay.
MattWe can talk about who we want to win. I want to know who you think is going to win. One name.
JoeI I really like Justin Rose.
MattI do really like Justin Rose. Joe has Justin Rose. Jeremy. I'm going with my boy. He's playing good lately.
JeremyJordan knows that place. I'm going with Joe. Yep. Dorty boys. It's been a while since I picked Jordan.
DanIt has been a while. Dan. I do like Rosie this week. Joe took my guy, but um uh just out of the hat. Um pick one and we'll split the winning. Uh let's go, Matt Fitzpatrick.
MattOh, 50. All right. I I'm going off kilter. I I think it's gonna be one of these players.
JoeHow about Harry Hall?
MattNo, not Harry Hall. I hey, if Harry won, that would be sick.
JoeThat would be sick.
MattI will be rooting for him tenfold. But no, uh, I I'm gonna go with Jake Knapp.
SPEAKER_08Is it his first year?
MattSo uh I don't know if it's his first. Uh don't he won last year? One of the smoothiest boys swings in the world. So yeah, I just think there you're gonna, I don't know. It's like look at Rom came out fairly early, not his first time, but fairly early.
JoeOne might be a good call, too. Patrick Reed. Yeah, Patrick Reed is fatty boys might win. Yeah, he's yeah, he's getting all the secrets from the golden bear.
MattUm, you know, uh John Ron won kind of early, Jordan Spieth won early in his career, uh, Scotty Scheffler won early in his career. Um, you know, in in relative terms, not like the first time they played, but um, so I think uh Jake Nap is a it's a second, yeah. I think he's he's a player that could his length, he can use his length to his advantage. A lot of guys don't use it to their advantage there because they get a little crazy.
JoeComment from sticking greens, your local conspiracy theorist in Nevada. Uh said, I would love to see Bryson win it. So stick and greens is live on the Instagram.
MattYeah, thanks for watching, if you're into conspiracy theories, go follow stick and greens.
JoeFoil hat and all. He put a bunch of laughing emotions. He knows it.
MattOh so funny, so funny. All right, that's who we think is gonna win. And uh, if one of those players win, then we get some clout. Now we can talk about who we'd like to see win.
JeremyJordan Speith.
MattJeremy doesn't change. What's the chances of Rory defending?
JoeI think slim. Slim. I think he could do it. I think he could do it.
MattI think he could do it, but I zero pressure on that man right now.
JoeNow he has no pressure for sure.
MattFirst time he's ever been at Augusta with zero pressure. Yeah. None whatsoever. He could give two shits if he wins or finishes last.
JoeWell, I mean of course he doesn't finish last, but I got a nap and speed top 10 Ludwig for the W. Ah, that's a good one.
MattLudwig is a hot hour right now.
JoeMy my picks are Rose or Ludwig. Honestly, like that's what I'm feeling.
MattBut I think Justin Rose is a good pick. He's playing. He's playing really well. No one's talking about Scotty. No one's talking about Akshay. Oh, hey, there we go.
JoeJacob in the house. Cheating putting could be a wild card. I saw someone pick uh um Bobby McIntyre, too. He's lefty, right? So I think he played well last year.
SPEAKER_00Who's that?
JoeRobert McIntyre.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah.
JoeIt's the thing with the masters though. It's like there's so anything can happen. That's what makes this thing the greatest.
MattYou'll see Akshay rocking these around the hollow grounds. So you know, maybe maybe Akshay pulls it off. Come on, that would be fantastic. Yeah, yeah. Can't wait. All right.
SPEAKER_08Uh got the part three on it tomorrow.
MattUh, I really need to know how people feel about pimento cheese sandwiches that left alone don't even have toasted bread. I will let you know Sunday. Yeah, yeah. I don't I've never had a pimento cheese.
JeremyI've never had one though, but we did order it. It's gonna be talking about it next Tuesday for sure.
JoeIf UPS didn't steal our package last year, we'd be able to comment on that right now.
MattBut we cannot Bryson and Fitzpatrick for Chapman. Yeah, those are good picks. I like Bryson about Tommy is just awesome. Oh, I love I you know what I love that there is a ton of people saying a ton of different names. It's not Sheffler, Sheffler, Sheffler, Sheffield, Bryson, Sheffler, Sheffield, Bryson, Bryson, Bryson, Bryson. There's a good mix. Pemento is dank.
Golf Recaps And Losing Balls
JoeLando on IG saying those are nasty fire. Lando underscore TX. So nasty fire.
JeremyIs that a good thing or a bad thing?
SPEAKER_05Don't know. That's nasty.
JoeNasty fire would be like hey, that shit was destroyed. Like it was nasty. You don't want to go back there.
MattDo I need to text my kid and ask her what that means? Nasty fire, yeah. Hey, ask he around there. Ask her.
JoeI believe nasty fire is like a really crazy fire that is out of control.
JeremySo like they're so good you can't get enough.

JeremyI don't actually know what it stands for, but it's it's basically when you connect like code to another service, like you're connecting to YouTube or whatever. It's it's technical BS idea.
JoeIt's like Arnold Palmer invitational connecting.

Oh so no, no, no, and then some high school kid got all his buddies to join and took over, and so I lost a 250 gift card as well. So, but I did get 100 bucks, so I'm really grateful for that.
Joe25 in the in the grassy uh Joe got 25 bucks.
JeremySo um app, though.
MattYou enriched it absolutely yourself. And I'm still I posted two new courses today that I played, so it's slowly climbing. I'm climbing up the ranks. Uh try to get back to that two spot. Like I said, I don't know if I'll ever get to one. We don't play enough variety every year to get that many game, but we got some that we'll be knocking off here shortly that we have not played. Um, yeah, so you know the the thing was I win, you win. I won the quantum, I was gonna give away the elite. Now that shit's going on, whatnot.
JoeYeah, the app's great. If you if if you're a golfer, go download the grassy app. It is a golfer, a nerd, golfers nerd paradise, and you can it's like if you're in a food and you've ever heard of biter, it's basically biter, right? You guys probably don't know about it, but you can create bucket lists and rate, and yeah, it's uh it's I just have I haven't been on lately. I've been so busy with these damn kids. Yeah, but killer app, killer app.
MattIt's a lot of fun. More people are joining every single day, the community's getting bigger. Jacob's doing great things.
SPEAKER_00Oh all right.
MattWhat do you want? Do you guys want to what do you want to talk about next? We can talk about um you know Patrick Reed's chances at this coming back as a non-lift player, or we can do a little Augusta trivia.
JoeI mean, we should talk about Jack Nicholas adopting Patrick Reed. Honestly, I saw that. That video was so funny. Did anybody did any get throw a uh W in the chat if you heard about Jack Nicholas adopting Patrick Reed as one of his own? Did anybody hear about that?
SPEAKER_05Who did that video?
JoeGolf shit bags, golf shit bags. It's one of the great honestly, dude. Did you the good the Norman one too? Where he's like, Hey, yeah, I tell him to stand up, yep, golf shitbags.

JoeWhat's you know, what's that Instagram? Golf shit bags is one of the best.
JeremyYeah, that was I was cracking up the Jack voice. You're fat, you don't have a family, yeah.
JoeUh and and that hasn't popped up on my timeline in a long time. And I saw that, I was like, Oh, dude, I forgot about this dude. He's they're so good. Yeah, I was cracking up.
MattI was cracking up some AI trivia with the correct answers. Well, I'm that's what's gonna happen tonight. I'm not I didn't create any graphics, I just have the questions and the answers, so it will I can't screw this up.
JoeA tradition unlike any other tradition incorrect AI answers.
MattNo, that that wasn't AI's fault. That was AI's fault. Yeah, I I jacked that one up.
JoeUh okay, here I'll give you a because I don't think uh yeah, I'll give you a couple. I'll give you a couple.
MattThat these so what I asked, what I asked was uh give me some trivia about the masters that everyone should know but don't. So this is if you're a golf fan and you love the masters, you should know what these are. So some of these we'll know right away, but maybe some of the listeners don't. So the first one who pays the bill for the exclusive champions inner held every Tuesday of Masters Week?
JoeThe champion from the previous year, easy.
SPEAKER_05Okay, relax, sir. I said calm down.
JoeI just learned about tunnels this year. I uh tunnels are a big thing. Yeah, supposedly.
MattIt's new, that's why you're hearing about it. Uh so yes, but Joe was correct. Last year, so Rory's dinner. Uh, he's on the he's he's got the tab for that. He gets to pick what he wants. He can afford it. Yeah, all right. Uh, where is a master's champion allowed to wear their iconic green jacket?
JoeAt the clubhouse or approved media functions by the club, they have to be approved to wear, right? It's at the club or approved locations that the club approves. Uh true. They wear them on the today show, but the club still has to approve it.
MattThis is anywhere they want for the first year, but after that, strictly on the grounds of Augusta National. But they still have to player wins, they get to take the jacket home and wear it in public for one year. Then they return the following year's tournament. Must be returned the jacket to the champions' locker room. From then on, they only allowed to wear it while visiting the club.
JoeI believe they still have to get approval though. Like, what if Rory popped up on that that Yeezy show in LA?
MattGreen jacket on top of the what's the famous what's the famous nudie bar in Atlanta?
JoeYeah, yeah. I yeah, I wouldn't go for that. I think you need to let them know where you're wearing it. Yeah, uh, you're talking about Magic City.
DanYou wear the green jacket to the blue flame.
JoeYeah, no, magic magic city, starting OnlyFans with it.
MattDid you did you hear about that? That the the uh Atlanta Hawks wanted to do a Magic City night, and the NBA said no, yeah, no it's the same thing, same same man.
Masters Winner Picks And Reasons
DanI get it. Uh okay, Joe Booty cheeks clapping all night. Okay, I'm gonna go.
MattWhich hole officially answer okay stretch of Amen Corner?
JoeWe all need to be quiet here. Everybody knows that one, right? Right, Dan Yeah, it's one, two, and three.
MattI didn't even hear the question. Uh, what co what holes make up the famous Amen corner?
JoeOh god, okay. One, two, and three. Easy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Matt16, 17, 18.
JoeSomebody put it in the chat, please, so we don't have to say it.
MattYeah, let's see if anybody that's watching knows. Because I mean, everybody should know this, right?
JoeEverybody should know this. You don't we do have a little bit there? 13, 14, 15. There we go. Not right. No, no, that's not right. Close, close, yeah. You're here. Almost, almost, Shannon. Close. Amen corners when the property goes down the hill to a little you got one of those.
DanYou got one of those, right?
JoeI got one of those one, yeah.
MattOne out of three, not bad.
JoeOh, all right. There we go. Yeah, good job. Amen. Corner, yep. You went the wrong way. Well, I know Eric knows it for sure. Of course.
MattOne one hole makes up the three holes.
JoeI that's where it starts, though. So where is Ame Corner? It starts there. I I can get that. I can get around that.
MattAre the winners presented with their permanent custom tailored green jacket during the Sunday ceremony? No, no, I don't know. No, they're not. It's a presentation jacket. They they get tailored fit, they they have a variety of sizes at the ready.
JoeTaylor gang.
MattAll right, uh, here we go. Why do the caddies wear those identical white jumpsuits? Hmm, see?
JoeI know this too. It's in the back of it. Oh, you know. No, no, it probably doesn't. It's back.
SPEAKER_06This is new to me.
JoeI got a lot of I lot of got a lot of VHS tapes that are masters tapes downstairs and the whatnot.
MattDid they talk about why they wear the jumpsuits?
JoeI have I have watched a lot of things about the masters. So no clue, Dan? Jeremy, any clue?
JeremyI I feel like it's there.
JoeI just can't can I take a guess?
SPEAKER_05Absolutely.
JoeI think it's to differentiate so that you know they are the caddy and not the player, and everybody is the same, and then you know, everybody that's a member or has one the masters is in a green jacket, so they can be the people pointers.
MattSo the answer is to create a neat, uniform looked for the local workers. The tradition started in the late 1930s and 40s. Augusta National used to employ people from the local community as caddies rather than players bringing their own. Co-founder Richard Roberts wanted them to look clean and standardized, so he introduced the heavy, durable white canvas boiler suits. The tradition stuck even after players were allowed to bring their own caddies starting in 1983.
JoeYeah, caddy players weren't allowed to bring their own caddies back in the day.
MattThey were local up to 1982, which is crazy. Wild, they really canvas. Yeah, I believe so. I bet those are hot. It can be that's why you see the guys with them unzipped and fan watered, yeah, especially on those hot humans. Hey, why don't you come back in July and play? No, thank you.
JoeStick and green said, I don't know any of these. He's still on Instagram. Don't know any of it. Kevin, that's your name, right? I haven't seen you so long. K Strat.
MattYeah, yeah. All right, let's see here. Uh, what's what's the next one I got? Uh, what was a terminant that the terminant?
JoeWhat was the temperature?
MattWhat was the tournament originally called when it was first played in 1934?
JoeIt was called the Augusta. I just watched this the other day. It wasn't called the Masters, the Augusta National Invitational Tournament.
SPEAKER_05Hey, very well done, Joe.
MattThank you, VHS Masters tapes. Down in the whatnot.
JoeAnd then the Masters came about like in 1953, I believe.
MattUh, co-founder and golf Bobby Legend actually hated the name The Masters. He thought it sounded too far presumptuous and self-congratulatory. Took five years for his co-founder, Clifford Roberts, to finally convince him to officially adopt the master's name in 1930.
JoeYeah, it was it was, yeah. Yeah.
MattAll right.
JoeOh, I love this. This is so much fun. Go.
MattThis is this is a good one. Why are the famous pimento cheese and egg salad sandwiches wrapped in green plastic?
JoeDoes anybody know?
DanSo if they get like doesn't have something to do, like if it happens to miss the trash can, it doesn't look like trash on the course. Yep. So exactly. Well done, man.
SPEAKER_05Good job.
MattI thought I heard something about that. Says Augusta National is famously obsessive about the pristine visual aesthetics of the course by wrapping all concession items in green paper and plastic. Any accidental litter dropped by a patron naturally blends in with the green, ensuring the grounds look completely immaculate to the millions of viewers at home.
JoeYep. Love this. This is a good one.
MattI got a couple more. All right. Uh, what did Augusta National do with the golf course when the tournament was canceled during World War II?
DanI heard this before, but I don't remember it. I don't remember this one.
JoeUm coach in the house. Shout out, Coach Borge. What up, Coach? What did they do when it was closed during World War II? What did they do when it was closed?
MattYeah, the the course, the tournament was canceled, so they did something with the golf course. I don't recall. I don't recall. They turned it into a makeshift farm for cattle and turkey. The tournament was paused from 43 to 45 because the club lacked the manpower to maintain the ground during the war. They brought in a hundred head of cattle and over a thousand turkeys to help the war efforts to keep the grass mowed by eating it. Unfortunately, the livestock ended up completely destroyed the fairways and eating the decorative plants, required a massive restoration before the tournament returned. Yeah.
JoeI was gonna say it was turned into like a peach farm again, but uh everybody knows this one.
MattWhat did the where do the amateur players sleep during Masters Week?
JoeEverybody knows it. We all know everybody knows this. Somebody say it. Somebody say it.
MattThis is an easy one.
JoeVery easy one. Very easy to get it. Who's gonna get it? There you go. Grassy crow's nest. Good job. Good job. Honestly, the crow's nest looks so small, and when you see the pictures inside, you're like, how does all that fit in that area on top of there?
Pimento Cheese Talk And YouTube Rules
MattYeah, the the ladies only play one day, so it's not it's not like they're there for a week. They just there's a small amount of I don't know how many players make the cut, but uh there's just a small amount of play, so it's it's not that damaging. Somebody asked, or Bush asked, why did they let the ladies play the week before? Doesn't that hurt the course?
JoeWell, they got drive chip and putt on Sunday, too.
MattSo yeah, that's on the the that's on the driving range in the 18th putting green, so yeah, yeah.
JoeYeah.
MattUh okay, let's see. Uh, why was CBS broadcaster Gary McCord famously banned from calling the Masters in 1995?
JeremySaid something about the greens being smooth, like a bikini wax or something like that.
MattThat's it. That's it. Joking on air that the grounds crew used bikini wax on the greens.
JoeGary McCord. What a guy.
MattJustin Nashville tightly controls the television broadcast and has a strict vocabulary rules. For instance, the crowd must be called patrons, never fans, and the rough is the second cut when McCord occasionally or casually joked that the lightning fast greens must have been bikini wax. The tournament committee was unused and permanently banned him from the broadcast booth.
JoeAlso, what they don't mention is what I remember. I think I talked about this last year during Master's show. Front nine, second nine. Yeah.
unknownYeah.
JoeIt's not the front nine, it's not the back nine. It is the first nine and the second nine.
MattYeah. They they are that's that's one of the quirky things that makes this place special. No phones, cheap prices, crowds like crazy trying to get gnomes to sell on whatnot for$800.
JoeYeah, I know. Yeah. I think that's one of the things that makes it so special, though, too, at the end of the day. Okay, you guys.
JeremyYeah, I agree with Rob. I loved watching, like when I was a kid, my dad would always have the masters on. I just remember Gary McCord. Oh, he was my favorite.
MattI it the 10 cup scene with him in the bar where he's trying to hit the pelican on the post. I that is amazing. So good. So good. Uh okay, that was Masters trivia. No strollers. Yeah, I don't no strollers, no cell phones. Just enjoying the moment.
SPEAKER_05Living for the moment.
JoeI'm gonna boss big Joe up in here. He's on Instagram.
SPEAKER_05I wonder, can we do can I do a poll on here?
JoeIt is the greatest week of the year, though, honestly. It's there is so much tradition and so much history. And uh it's it's one of the only tournaments that are hold, like majors that are held at the same place every year. I mean, other than the fifth major, the players like it's and I think that's one of the cool aesthetics of it is it builds up like history and stories and like lore, right? There's lore at the Masters, and that's what makes it so great. And you know it's it's the best. And it's I mean, at the end of the day, it really doesn't it a lot of times it doesn't start until the second nine on Sunday, which makes it dramatic, which the drama that that Augusta National provides. I mean, that's that's one of the reasons we love it.
SPEAKER_00Absolutely.
JeremyAnd when you're like in the when you're reminiscing about your favorite masters moments, the cool thing about that place is it's always at the same spot and it changes almost every year. Because like the story just keeps building every year, it just continues on, and you can you know look back and it's the same place.
MattAnd Rob going go to the question here. What's your guys' favorite hole and why?
JoeOh, yeah. That's that's a hard question. That's hard.
DanThat's why he asked it. I know mine. Mine's 13. Yeah, yeah.
Matt13.
Dan13's dope.
MattAbsolutely one of the greatest holes.
DanTough ass, tough ass, beautiful dog leg par uh dog leg left par five with that creek with Ray's Creek running down the side. That's yeah, that green, that second shot. Mine fucked for the the fader of the ball. Yeah, it's I mean it's it's great because if you pull off the drive, it's an e you can get there in two, no problem. It's not like you can't get there in two, but if you don't pull off the drive and hit it in the trees, you're fucked.
JoeYou know, it's also sloped, you gotta hit a butt into there, and it's it's a draw lie. So I heard I saw a video about actually talking about like you guys don't realize some of the T-boxes are like sloped.
DanYeah.
JoeDid you guys see that video where he's not, yeah. Like on two.
MattThat's why I always pipe my drive on the first hole, then I get it the second. It's like, what? Uh okay. There's a there's there's this is this is tough.
JoeWell, you can do that. Let's do that after we've all pick our favorite hole.
MattOh, sorry. We'll be back. Yeah, Jeremy goes mine's 13. Jeremy.
Joe13.
JeremyCome back to me. Actually, you're you already chose yours, Joe. No, I have not.
JoeOh, all right, Joe. What's your three?
Augusta Trivia Green Jacket Facts
JeremyI do two. Yeah, I got five. I'm gonna, I'm just gonna say them. I'm gonna say number two is one of my favorites. I love number eight. I love par fives, and I love thirteen. Thirteen because of the visuals, like it's just iconic. Eight, I love seeing those guys hit into that green and having to like navigate around the slopes around the green. And I love number two because that t-shot and then that downhill view to the green, fitting it in between the bunkers is unbelievable, and watching the ball roll like on the side hill down the green to the right. That shot there gives me goosey thinking about it.
Dan15's a great hole, too. That's another great hole. 15 is amazing.
JoeThat's what I was gonna pick. I was gonna say 15 because it's like your last opportunity to take an take an extra stroke, you know, and get closer. Last realistic, you know, an energy evil. Yeah, like Colleen Eagle it just subscribed.
MattThank you for subscribing to the channel. We appreciate you.
DanThank you, Colleen. Thanks, CC.
JoeI think 15 is great because it's like if you're chasing the leader, like you gotta you can make eagle there, you know, but you can also fuck it up, and also if you make eagle there, also 16 is very aceable on Sunday. So I think that I mean, I I think 1213 is where like 12's where it starts. 13 is where you can also eagle. Like if you're chasing down the leader, 12-13, you know, you got 14, then 15 is like a great opportunity. And then like if you hit a killer shot on 16, I I mean that's where it all starts, but I think 15 is where you can you can you can mess up or you can go or you can catch, you know what I mean?
MattYeah. What I what I love about 15 is you know, if you hit a gray drive, you got you got an opportunity to get on the green and two. Uh, but if you don't hit a gray drive and you have to lay up, now you're giving yourself a shot with a wedge that's gonna have a lot of spin on a green that slopes back towards the water, or if you carry it too long, goes down towards the lake on 16. So I mean, the the layup is not the easier shot sometimes, though.
JoeYeah, yeah. I think that's what makes that whole like the one that almost decides the tournament. You know what I mean? Yeah, like Rory shot last year when he bented around the trees. Oh, and killer. And then 16. Also, when Xander was like, I think he was chasing or he was in the lead, I can't remember, three, four years ago, and then he and then he just dunked it in the water. He was chasing, but yep, that's what makes that second night so good.
MattRob says the beauty of 13 and 15 is that the score of three to seven are in play.
JoeAbsolutely, yeah. It's true.
MattThat's true. All right, so let's get back to this one. Uh headed to Bandon on Sunday. When we booked, forgot to check when the final round was. We'll be traveling when the back or the second nine. The second nine. That's tough.
DanIt's a bummer. You're gonna have that master master's app on your phone, and you won't miss it.
MattThat's why the masters app is the greatest. Greatest, second greatest golf app on the planet. Almost threw Jacob under the butt. Download the Grassy app. Then go watch the Masters app right behind Grassy.
unknownRight.
JoeWell, the Grassy app is great all year. The Masters app is only great one week at the end.
MattThat's why Joe's here for wisdom like that. Yeah, yeah. The best app the second week of April.
JeremyYou can go back and watch all the old videos all year long on that.
JoeThe the best app after the first week of April and until the first week of April. Yes, grassy. Yes, got you, got you, bro.
MattOh too funny. Uh, all right, who else? Anybody? Was there any other questions we missed? Anything else going on? Uh so Thursday, my my schedule's wide open on Thursday. I'm gonna park my ass in front of the TV and uh you know, maybe throw on some depends. I'm not moving, I'm just watching it all day.
JoeYeah, maybe I do see a I do see Shannon 13 Brewing with a Stuart Sink comment. Stuart Sink. If you if he must have been listening to some of the archives of uh the Masters and how he can destroy your your ticket that you bet on somebody. So shout out to you, Shannon. Shout out Shannon. Going back into the archives, I would assume, of the Chasing Daylight Podcast episode, because you know he's ruined a lot of my tickets. Um, so I that there's a lot of lore in Chase and Daylight podcast as well. So I'm assuming that's what you're talking about.
MattName it with a dig right there. They're definitely not that.
DanDo we uh do we continue the tradition of the uh par three contest winner not winning the masters? That's gotta change sometime, right?
MattEventually.
JoeYeah, I don't know. That's tomorrow, too.
MattBut you know what? The the guys that are in contention, they'll have their caddy hit a ball or their wife putt out, yeah. Yeah, just to avoid their scorecard.
JeremySo yeah, they don't think that do we think Tommy Fleetwood's son's gonna hit it on the green on nine?
DanNo, I'm gonna go with no, not yet unfortunately next year. I'm not wishing bad on the kid, but I just don't think he's big enough or strong enough. But we'll see. Yeah, he's young, isn't he? Uh I don't know.
JeremyAll I know is that Tommy said that he has to keep making it to the Masters until his son can hit it over the water on nine on the par three contest.
MattHonestly, Tommy Fleetwood's a great pick, too. That's another one that not I don't did.
JeremySomebody, one person mentioned Fleetwood. Yeah, I'd love to see him win it. Yeah, I'd love Tommy.
MattI was uh I was wondering if Augusta was gonna let him wear that hat.
JoeBut the black zone one are you talking about? Yeah, yeah. That was uh yeah, that was interesting.
MattAll right, Joe. Let's talk about the birds. You're a big bird guy now. We didn't know that Nori mentioned uh Fleetwood.
JoeUh okay. Job rooting for Tommy here. You we got for Tommy. So yeah, guys, it all you gotta do is post a comment and be here when we pull the giveaway. You're gonna get in for a one of 100 Garson jumpsuit grip. And they sold out in three minutes, so uh that's all you gotta do. Jay Rose talked about on the newest YouTube channel.
JeremyYeah, he did the one with Grant Horvath where he played the Palm Club in Florida.
JoeDantas of Asians up in here. What a dance, yeah.
MattUm, what was I gonna say? What was I kind of? You're talking about birds, birds, Joe, Joe's big bird guy. We didn't know this. I didn't know this, at least. I I didn't know you sit on your back patio and and bird watching.
JoeI do not, I do not, but I do know just bird documentaries, yeah for the podcast.
DanJoe, Joe is a fan of the of the uh aviary type.
JoeYou didn't know you were an air aviarian. No, I mean Miles. You guys know Miles, Miles Brown, absolute legend, Delaware legend. Shout out uh his isn't it ledge? I've been pushing ledge, yeah. Ledge, shout out the ledge, yeah. Shout out the ledge, Miles Brown. Uh, I forget the name of his bar, but it's in Delaware, Wilmington. Shout out Wilmington. Um, he's a bird watcher. Uh, and I'm not a bird watcher at all by any means. I have no clue. But I watched the documentary. I watched the documentary. I watched the documentary about bird watching.
DanJoe's a bird man now.
Favorite Holes And Sunday Drama
JoeUm, but it I found it because of a great uh Instagram fine fine twin docs to watch on Instagram. Uh they post like free documentaries. Here you go. And it just popped up on my feed, and uh, I watched the whole thing, and uh it's very interesting.
MattAnd I like the documentary, yeah.
JoeIt's called bird watching on birds, these guys, these guys like smoked weed, and they're like, Hey, did you hear that bird or whatever? And they're like, Hey, let's go hunt for all the birds this year because there's something every year, it's called the big year, it's called the big year, and you try and find as many birds as you can find and see in one year, and get gave a birdie. No, I don't I don't search for birds, I'm not a bird watcher. He is a bird watcher, but also uh I like I like cool prints. Okay, the Malbon thing, it's a cool print, right? Like, I like I'm into cool clothes, it's not, but I get it. But I did see I did see something where is Malbon poking fun at the Masters? Because you know the whole theory, they pump the bird sounds into Augusta, and nobody sees any birds, but they're pumped in. So are they poking fun at the masters with all the birds on Jason Day's shirt or bird watching vest, whatever you want to call it? Is that do you think that's what's happening? Are they poking fun? And also, Stephen Malbon is a huge nature guy, like he walks around, which I get, and birds are cool, and it's always nice to hear birds in the morning, but are they poking fun or is it you guys tell me yours are the outsiders because I'm a bird watcher.
JeremyI don't think he's poking fun.
MattThat would be a deep trich. I mean, do you really want to reason for wanting to do that?
JoeI don't think they would poke the bear, right?
MattI mean, that's some bears are worth poking. I don't know if that one is.
JoeIt's definitely not.
DanNo, yeah, I don't think I don't think it's a jab at the masters. Malbonds just you know, they come out with funky shit. So artsy, just part for the course, yeah.
JoeI mean, it's bird watching is a massive thing, honestly. It's really big, and if you watch that documentary, it's big.
MattI'm right there with you, Grassy. That not a fan, not a fan. That came out, and I was like, what the actual are we doing here?
JeremyWhat does Tony got on? Does he have another lacy blouse? Or is it a bowling shirt this time?
MattI've always what is your guys' thoughts on this? I've always wondered this jersey.
JeremyICP Jugolo jersey.
MattIs it is it very presumptuous for somebody to put out Jason Day's four-day fit? You know, well, you gotta make the cut, first off.
JoeWell, they do that with Tony Fino every time.
MattI know they do it with everybody. They it's the the four-day fit for the play. I mean, Nike used to do it like crazy when they had a bunch of you know different apparel for everybody. I just think it's like maybe you should put out the first two days, and if they make the cut, then you could play the other two, you know.
DanIt's just I should put an asterisk by Saturday and Sundays fit.
MattYeah, just maybe if if cut made, if cut made.
DanPossible if cut made.
JoeI I mean, I don't think they should even put them out. I think they should be surprised when they see them. Well, they they want to push it and get people excited to go buy it at the store. I I understand that, yeah, but it's like I think we should be surprised. And like during the 90s when you know they were wearing stuff. I mean, like, I think we should be surprised. And I think that's one of those things where it's like we don't need to know that. We do not need to know that.
MattI don't know. I I don't know. I I I just think it's it's a little silly to show everything before the tournament even starts.
JoeBut it's raining, but I get it, I get it. But also the thing is like, what if it's too hot, like if for a vest or too hot for a sweater, and you then they get to throw out the cooler apparel posts, and you could you committed them to this and they gotta wear it, you know.
MattLike you want you want your players sweating balls out there, or that's why I love Tommy not having the apparel and just wearing shit from Pebble Beach and you just Riviera just buying a polo. Hey, I'm gonna wear this today.
JoeThat's what makes it cool, too. If you're a fan of Tommy Fleetwood, like you're like, oh, he's wearing that and he's not obligated to, you know, it's he's wearing it because he likes it. You know what I mean? So it's yeah, gives a human element to it.
Live Giveaways And Winners
MattSell sell all about the money. Yep. Yep, yep, yep. Yeah, all right. We hit the hour mark. Let's do this giveaway. We got 29 people in the giveaway. Bring this up here. So this is what we're gonna give away first. What do you want to give away first? The grip or the hat? What do you want to do first? Grip or hat? Who wants?
JoeYeah, I think the grip is more uh prestigious, if you will.

SPEAKER_05Yeah, that was wild.
JoeI want more like Masters Trivia. Can you ask uh your Google agent?
MattYeah, yeah. All right. So we had this thoughts on Harry Hall for this week. Love the guys who decided to give him a go. If his putter is working, he wants to win this tournament so bad. And I know he's been grinding hard trying to get his game in. I hope he finds something. I would absolutely love to see it. I would totally lose my shit if he was on the leaderboard the last day near the top and had an opportunity to bring it home. Um, somebody that absolutely is passionate and loves this game, and god, it would be fun to see. So all right, Joe wants Joe wants more trivia. Uh give me a second here.
JeremyI have trivia for you.
MattOh, okay.
JeremyWhich VHS movie did I record the 1992 Masters when Fred Couples won? Which video did I record over? 92? Yep. Was it the Goonies? Nope. Home Alone.
MattNo, no, Goonies is what it was a cartoon. I know it was older, but I figure he would have grabbed something old. This is a very crazy cartoon because it could be anything.
JeremyIt's a cartoon. Oh, it's a they made several of these movies. Transformer was the first one. It was a cartoon.
Dan1982. Uh was it no 1992?
Jeremy9292.
JoeDid you have to stuff the paper in the little holes? No, I put electrical tape over the tape.
JeremyThere you go. Recorded Freddie Couple's brave little toaster.
JoeWhat a call out, Lando.
JeremyUh I don't think you'll ever guess. It's yeah, there's several, and it's land before time.
DanOh, land before time.
JeremySo I have the DHS of Freddie winning over land before time. Was it the first land before time? It was. Oh my sister was not happy with me. Honestly, I was really close to it. Still have that.
JoeDon't have it, don't have a BCR, but I still have the tape. Quest for Parr on Instagram said Pinky in the Brain. I don't think they ever made a movie. No, that was just uh uh animated TV series and Animaniacs.
MattAnimaniacs all right. Question Yeah, the albatross club. Only four players have ever recorded an albatross in masters history. Gene Sarzent short the Sarzant, god damn, that was horrible. Gene Schlossinger. Gene Schlossen, uh shot her around the world on the 15th hole in 1935, is the most famous. Can you name the other three players to accomplish this feat?
JoeLouis Stazen.
DanLouis, yep, on two.
JoeI knew that.
MattUm 1967 and 1994. 1967 on the eighth hole.
JoeLee Trevino? No, no, no, no. He didn't get one unless I saw a video. He just popped in my hand.
MattDon January. It was Bruce Delvin in 16. Bruce Devlin? Jeff Maggart. Jeff Maggart? Jeff Maggart Maggart in 1994 on the 13th. All right. Question two. The par three course. Since the inception of Wednesday's par three contest 1960, how many players have won the par three contest and the masters tournament in the exact same year? Oh, we know that.
JoeYeah, nobody, right?
MattHey, I'm I'm reading these off the cuff. So all right. Historic bridges. Augusta National features three dedicated stone bridges that cross over Ray's Creek and its tributaries, each on an end honoring a legendary golfer. Who are the three golfers?
DanHogan, Sarazen, and Singer, you mean? Yeah, Slausinger.
JoeAnd uh Sarazan Bridge, Hogan Bridge, Dinkle. Rafe Dinkle. Is that what you said? Hogan, Sarazen.
DanUm, I don't know. I part of me wants to say Varden, but no. It's not Nelson.
MattNelson.
Records Albatrosses And Masters Lore
JoeNo, Nelson, Byron, yeah.
MattWhen you cross over leaving the 13th T. Yep. All right.
JoeYep.
MattUh, the cut line in 2024. A new record was set for the most consecutive cuts made at the Masters. Who holds his record breaking the previous tie of 23 held by Fred Couples and Gary Player?
JoeIt's Tiger, right?
MattYeah. Yeah. 24th consecutive cut in 2024.
JoeYeah.
MattAll right. High scores is the next one. Three players share the unfortunate record for the highest score on a single hole in the Masters history, each carding a 13. Name at least one of these players and the hole they scored it on. Just saw this.
JoeCome on, DGP. Go check out damngoodputter.com.
Jeremy12 is one of the 12 is the hole.
MattYes. Um Black Think Black Desert. Yeah. Tom Weiskoff. Weiskoff. That's right. Scored a 13 on the R3 12th hole in 1980.
DanYeah, Chris, I watched that documentary. That was it was good. That was really good. Did you guys see that at all? The photo? Yeah, okay, yeah, it was pretty good. It's not a bad third documentary watching.
MattWhat's the other one? Uh Tommy Nagahima scored a 13 on the par 513th and 78. And Sergio Garcia scored a 135-15th hole in 2018, hitting five balls into the water.
JeremyI think Lando's the resident masters historian. Yeah.
MattYeah, Sergio.
DanRemember when Kevin Naught blew up that one hole in Texas? I think it was a good one.
MattYeah, and then he went and flung his shirt up in there the following year.
DanThat was so interesting or some shit on that hole.
JoeDon't forget Francesco Calamari blowing it up. So we got the 2019. That's true. Shout out Francesco Calamari giving us that Tiger win.
JeremyRemember when Speed blew it up on 12 and didn't wasn't that when Danny Danny Wood that when he won it? I think so. That was a dark time.
MattUh we know that one. Uh youth on the course. While Tiger Woods is the youngest winner in Masters history, who's the youngest player to ever compete in the tournament? This will change after Thursday. Oh no, it won't change because he's not uh he's just the youngest this year. Never mind. My apologies. Francis Wimettez the other day, too.
DanNo.
MattRemember, he got a uh time warning.
DanI think it's uh like um he won like some kind of amateur tournament or something like that, wasn't it? Yeah, or like some kind of like uh yeah, one of those tournaments, small ping on that.
MattYeah, his amateur was 14 years old in five months when he competed in the 2013 Masters. He also made the cut.
unknownWow.
Matt14 years old. That's crazy.
JoeThat's crazy.
MattUh, which player holds the record for the most runner-up finishes at the Masters without ever actually winning the tournament? Greg Norman. Rough.
SPEAKER_08Can you repeat the question?
MattUh most runner-up finishes. Yeah, which player holds the record for the most runner-up finishes at the Masters without ever actually winning the Masters.
JoeIt's not Greg Norman because I said that.
MattUm 69, 72, 74, and 75.
JoeNope, not Phil. Yeah, it might be Phil, maybe it's not Phil. No, because he knows he's won the Masters. Yeah, payment failed. Stop, stop throwing that shit out there. You he won. Greg Norman was my call, Rob. Um, as this was in the late 60s and 70s.
JeremyUh Julius Burrows.
MattLate 60, uh, 69, and then 75. Yeah. Tom Wieskoff finished the runner-up four times, but never won the green jacket. Uh jacket. Jack Nicholas also has four runner-up finishes, but six victories. You imagine if Jack had 10 green jackets. Holy crap.
DanYeah. Wild.
MattAll right, that concludes Masters trivia for the 2026 version of the CDP Masters show.
SPEAKER_05I liked that. That was fun. That was entertaining.
MattThe more you know, the more the more you know. So, what is gonna be the biggest moment of this Masters? What's gonna be what everybody does? Second night on Sunday.
JoeSecond nine on Sunday.
MattSecond nine on Monday.
SPEAKER_06Sunday, yeah.
MattHey, did you did you see the story that Bryson is going to be playing his own wedges? He said he put them in play in South Africa, and he said if he doesn't put him in the bag, it's his own fault now. But it's it's a it's his brand, it's something he is making. Oh I heard I heard something about that. Yeah, and the rumors about LA golf not being able to get clubs is true. I tried to order some stuff to help Julian out, and uh yeah, wholesale accounts are no longer in existence. The only way you can get LA golf shafts is you have to buy it yourself.
JoeThat's a good take right there by Acosta.
MattOoh, that is a good take. Yeah, so Bryson is done with LA golf. I don't think he's playing their irons anymore. I didn't the maybe it was still an investor, right?
JoeHe's still an investor.
MattI have no idea.
DanI have no idea. I don't know. Wasn't he hitting the Avoda irons or something like that?
MattYeah, he was using that's what's in his bag, and he's got some Bettinardi wedges. Ooh, Bett Nardy coming up, but the Sergio's playing LA golf irons.
JoeI Sergio's got a minimal bag, yeah.
MattTwo of them. He's got one that he plays. Yeah, they they did him for the whole team for minimal fireballers, and then they did a custom one for Augusta. Their artists are talented, man. They they are very, very talented. That's off of them. That that custom paint that they do is good, and that shit lasts because I've got two bags, and those logos have not flared or moved.
JoeShout out to them for doing that uh trade-in too, and and donating to the kids, you know what I mean? If they donate to the kids, yeah.
MattI wonder if they'll send boxes for me to send bags to them.
JoeYeah, right. That's hard. Fuck bag boxes, man.
SPEAKER_06It's so bad.
MattAll right. Well, if uh nobody else has anything that they want to chat about, uh, we'll wrap this up this week.
JoeYeah, yeah. Bryson just invested in sports box AI, which is Michelle. We started. Yep. Shut up, Eds. There he is. Hello, Brad.
MattHey, what we were talking about earlier, Beds.

MattHot and sunny, Sunday, fast greens are coming. Oh, yeah, they were talking about it today. Uh, when I was watching Live at the Masters, and they were walking around the course, and somebody hit a shot and they said, Oh, wow, that's kind of soft. He goes, Yeah, it's Tuesday. Just wait, it ain't gonna be like that on Thursday.

Forget his name, but how he created the whole you know, suck the water out and push the air in to control the greens, like the underground system. They do it right, man. They really do do it right, and it's the product shows, man.
