And she is drunk as a skunk from last night. All right, we got drunk cat in the building.

Speaker 3 1:10

I'll clap to that. I'll clap to that.

Speaker 2 1:12

Yeah, I got a text message last night. It was at midnight and Sam cat said are you home? And I was like, okay, I know where this is going. She's out right now and she's hoping that I say I'm not home, don't worry about coming to the podcast tomorrow.

Speaker 3 1:26

That is 100% correct, okay.

Speaker 2 1:28

And so I was right. And then I got a FaceTime from her and she was laying in bed looking rough 20 minutes ago. Yeah, this was about. Yeah, almost 20 minutes ago.

Speaker 3 1:39

I just said Booth, are we really doing this? And I said yes, you were driving, You're like like.

Speaker 2 1:52

Yeah, I got locks with me and I'm like, oh god, it's real.

Speaker 3 1:53

I said it's, it's, it's a tuesday okay, wednesday morning okay, easy there 10 am. We thought that sam can't be able to make it easy there. Uh, mondays and tuesdays see locks, you're on my team, aren't you? Oh, he's so cute. Uh, mondays and tuesday are my Saturday and Sunday. I work weekends, that's right.

Speaker 3 2:05

So, last night was a Sunday fun day for me. Basically, it just doesn't align with the rest of the world and I understand that it actually works out well for me because the lines at the bars are non-existent on a Tuesday night. I can confirm.

Speaker 2 2:18

And you don't align with the rest of the world. So it fits well. And she came in the elevator. Uh, on the way up here I go, jesus christ, she said one word and I was like I'm drunk, sam cat no, okay, also can't. It was like a dragon.

Speaker 3 2:33

Just this air of just alcohol came rushing into my face twice and I'm drinking an alani new and I feel like that kind of smells like a.

Speaker 2 2:43

Yeah, I didn't yeah, I didn't smell cosmic stardust.

Speaker 3 2:46

Alex said that I didn't smell, so I think it's just you.

Speaker 2 2:48

He's being very nice.

Speaker 3 2:49

He's sleep deprived because he had a baby six days ago.

Speaker 2 2:52

Yeah.

Speaker 3 2:53

He's delusional. Okay, okay, listen, I'm here, booth. I don't know what else you want from me.

Speaker 2 2:58

So what'd you do?

Speaker 3 2:59

Okay, well, started at the classic Rose Pepper. You've been there.

Speaker 2 3:04

Yes, east Nashville.

Speaker 3 3:05

East Nashville Delicious, slutty Mexican food the best, Like just it's good, but their margaritas they'll get you. Yeah, we had two pitchers.

Speaker 2 3:16

Why are you holding your drink like that? We're not sponsored by Alani. We're not getting paid by Alani, so you can put that down. I don't. If you're not watching on YouTube, I'm not holding it. She's literally holding her Lani right by her head. She's a mess. She just spilt all over her Chippewa sweatshirt. I mean go home, go to bed.

Speaker 3 3:34

You made me be here. Can I hold your baby? That will make me feel better.

Speaker 2 3:38

No, he is not going anywhere now are you joking?

Speaker 3 3:40

I already held him when you went to the potty, um, or the bathroom. You're a grown man, he goes potty. You go to the bathroom. I have to. Uh, can we talk about my first time alone with locks?

Speaker 2 3:49

let's do it I was trusted.

Speaker 3 3:51

I was what is it called? Yeah, trusted, uh to watch locks for I don't know. It's like three hours. I think I have alani still on my face on monday this week yeah remember when you came to my house, yeah, he said.

Speaker 2 4:05

Yeah, we hung out outside and we watched the eclipse yeah, I think that was the first time that either dre or myself did not have him yeah, she was freaking out.

Speaker 3 4:16

Well, I mean warranted, I completely understand that, but she was like I am in such a pickle luckily I have not not a normal job so it was a Monday afternoon and she had to go to a shoot which was on Broadway and she's like I cannot take my four month old to Broadway. Yeah, I was like I mean, good for you, I would have probably brought my four month old to Broadway but probably not.

Speaker 3 4:37

No, she's in there. Is there any way you can come pick him up? Is there any way you can watch him? Of course I have nothing to do. It's my Saturday.

Speaker 2 4:44

Yeah.

Speaker 3 4:45

Honestly, it was like the best. My friend from college is in town, hence me drinking margaritas on the porch last night, but I'd say that we divided and conquered very well. Obviously, locks is like the chillest baby ever. He cried for two and a half seconds and I discovered that he loves baby trap music that a boy uh head, shoulders, knees and toes, but it's like trap remix the song kind of slaps. Have you ever heard it?

Speaker 2 5:09

no, play for you. I'm hanging out and I get a picture of him flipping me off and I'm like he's been with sam cat for an hour and she sends back a photo of just flipping off the camera. I go what is going on here?

Speaker 3 5:21

first of all, are you confused? Are you surprised? No, no, I actually just love that.

Speaker 2 5:24

So I screen like that's a whole photo. But like him, I go. What is going on here? First of all, are you confused? Are you surprised? No, I'm not surprised. No.

Speaker 3 5:25

I actually just love that, so I screened like that's a whole photo, but like him just with the middle finger up on my hand, I zoomed in and sent that to you.

Speaker 2 5:33

Yeah.

Speaker 3 5:33

Hope your trip's going well, dad. How's the masters? You left me with a stranger.

Speaker 2 5:37

And then Sam Cat just sends him home, just.

Speaker 3 5:40

Okay, I learned on Monday.

Speaker 2 5:41

Yeah.

Speaker 3 5:42

I cannot dress kids. It's the worst. I cannot dress children. So obviously everyone I know is procreating, so everybody has little kids. I've hung out with all of them. I love them dearly. I treat them as if they're my own. I feed them, I change their diapers all of these things I could not get him back into. He had that Nike onesie, yeah.

Speaker 2 6:02

No.

Speaker 3 6:05

It's a squiggle monster. No, I was like you know what's good, naked, yeah, and I just left it there. I wrapped him in a blanket in his little like push cart thing and we made it happen. But I was just like you are way too cute for me to upset. I just I was like going through my mind of all the children that I've hung out with.

Speaker 2 6:29

I don't know that I've ever dressed them. Yeah, it's tough. That's why I never put pants on them. Like I told you before, now you understand it's like a pain in the butt. Dre loves his outfits and she does such a good job of picking them out and anytime it's like my full day with them. She's like what do you want them to wear? And I was like, let's make it simple, like, and so now he has no pants on today, or sometimes, like when she was gone out of town, I sent her a photo and it was like four in the afternoon and he was still wearing his pajamas. I'm like, yeah, of course he is. You don't need to change out of those. He's comfy, he doesn't know?

Speaker 3 6:51

Yeah, so to his defense. Well, it's not to his defense, because he's the one who did the pooping. He pooped through his diaper and then it got on the clothes he was wearing. So I had to change his clothes, so I took them off. But getting a onesie over a baby's head is terrifying. Right and he's looking at me like what are you doing? And I'm like, bro, I don't know. This is our first time together.

Speaker 2 7:09

It's like the more reps and when they're super fragile right now, like Alex's daughter it's like you're so nervous and scared and then, once it starts getting bigger, it's like you just throw it over his head and the only thing without having pants. The pants provide an extra layer if there is a blowout. So right now he could potentially just have a blowout go through the side of his diaper and right into my pants. But that's right, because it's my boy.

Speaker 3 7:30

I love him you know what I I sense no lies there yeah.

Speaker 2 7:35

So, alex, tell us about your first week as a father. You're you said you're tired.

Speaker 1 7:40

Yeah, yeah tired's an understatement, for sure. Definitely tired, but great man, it's awesome. It's more love than I've ever had before.

Speaker 2 7:48

It's more than I expected and it's a blast and you guys had a c-section, yes, and that was uh smooth and quick a little quicker than I was comfortable with.

Speaker 1 7:59

Like I couldn't believe how fast it was. How much did you watch? I peeked around the curtain afterwards so, as they were sewing her back up, okay, I took a look and it was. I didn't see like, so I'm not getting like full frontal view. I'm off to the side a little bit. Yeah, which was probably for the better, right, but it was a blast.

Speaker 2 8:23

It was so cool to see the surgery in the room. What was the amount of time? Like you're saying, it was like a half hour from like putting her in the bed to the baby coming.

Speaker 1 8:33

So they wheel wifey in first. I can't go in when she's doing the spinal tap. Yeah, when they do that after they hanging out.

Speaker 2 8:52

whole thing was probably 30 minutes and so she's obviously not feeling anything just sitting there she's just feeling pressure, yeah, and like tugging that's really it. And your girl's name.

Speaker 1 9:04

Ara, Ara. Yeah, it means wind in Albanian and it was not derived from the Taylor Swift tour. Oh okay, I didn't even think of that. So yeah, asterix Big Swifty yeah, I didn't think about that either.

Speaker 2 9:15

E-R-A. All right, yeah, big Swifties.

Speaker 3 9:22

Yeah, she is, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 9:23

Okay, yeah, okay. Did you have an image in your head of what air was going to look like?

Speaker 1 9:29

We did one of the uh, one of the ultrasounds that shows like the, the 3d scan, yeah, and so we kind of had an idea. But I was, like you know, googling things like how exact are these that type like that, and so I had no real idea of kind of what she was going to look like. But, uh, she looks like my wife's, like twin, as a baby Right, it's wild.

Speaker 2 9:54

So era sleeping in the bedroom with you guys in a bassinet yes, yeah, yeah, and thank God for the snoo.

Speaker 1 10:01

You know about the snoo. Oh yeah, I got that Dude, that thing is yeah. That thing is something else, yeah.

Speaker 2 10:05

No, yeah, we got one of those. We got all the gadgets. Um, the snuggle me was what he primarily slept in Nice. It's like the little soft, big pillow that's got like a round part and it kind of just tucks them in, love it. So he slept a lot like that and you're getting some sleep.

Speaker 1 10:25

Yeah, actually, the last two nights she's only like woken up twice Okay, which has been great, and it's been quick, like quick wake up, change, eat back to sleep, all in probably like 40 minutes, All right. So I kind of feel a little spoiled. For sure, I think we're kind of we kind of lucked out, we got a little blessing baby and I don't think she's being so difficult. Let's see if that continues. And yeah, well, you know, fingers crossed, I want to knock on all the wood, but we'll see, we'll knock on wood.

Speaker 2 10:49

That's what we've been saying. We feel like we're blessed and we're like, all right, the storm's coming, the storm's coming, the storm's coming, but I feel like the storm's going to be a maniac.

Speaker 3 11:01

I think he's absolutely going to be a maniac. You're going to find him on the roof.

Speaker 2 11:04

Yeah, yeah, 100% yeah 100%.

Speaker 3 11:07

I feel like that's how you were.

Speaker 2 11:08

Yeah, I mean I wasn't there, but I've heard stories. And then we'll get Lox and Nair set up on a date, maybe one day, huh buddy. What do you think?

Speaker 3 11:15

being born right now.

Speaker 2 11:18

I agree.

Speaker 3 11:22

I think everyone I know is having a girl, except for you. Yeah, yeah, I mean locks.

Speaker 2 11:28

You're going to have the pick of the litter locks.

Speaker 3 11:32

I'll keep those comments to myself.

Speaker 2 11:33

All right, so you're on Broadway. Last night, sam Cat, and you didn't get any chairs thrown at you.

Speaker 3 11:39

Let me hold him. No, oh my God, oh my god, absolutely nothing is going to change in Morgan Wallen's life.

Speaker 2 11:44

No, besides more downloads.

Speaker 3 11:46

He gets arrested for throwing a chair Off a six story building. Six stories, you guys? I don't know, throwing a chair off a one story building Could kill someone. Six stories, that's a lot of velocity. I'm not a scientist, but I understand how Inertia works. Yeah, nothing will change.

Speaker 2 12:05

He's on a stadium tour right now and everybody will still buy his tickets and he will still get paid millions of dollars and his fan leaving nasty comments on the internet doesn't bother him but to throw a chair off of six stories onto broadway where there are thousands of people at all times, like n.

Speaker 3 12:22

Nashville is not a nine to five. Oh, it's calm.

Speaker 2 12:26

No, at all times, at all times, every day.

Speaker 3 12:28

Sunday through Sunday, 24 seven. There are people drunk on Broadway walking. Also, chiefs is right on Broadway. It's not like off at all. It's second in or, yeah, second in Broadway, a very popular corner across from the infamous Kid Rocks that he's also gotten arrested at. Yeah, maybe it's just that corner. There's something in the air there that makes him act a fool.

Speaker 2 12:49

I think he likes it. I think he wants to be the bad guy in country music and everybody loves country needs an outlaw. He's going to get his millions. He's going to get his downloads. He's going to get his crazy fans that are like yeah, I don't think that he likes it.

Speaker 3 13:04

I think that's just who he is. I don't think this is an act. I think that's just like who he is. He's just famous. I think that he's just this big of an idiot. He just has more money than us and sings bangers, but I would think that he just doesn't care, even less than he did before now.

Speaker 3 13:23

Yeah because no one's gonna tell him no, yeah, he's surrounded by yes men always, and I feel like you know goes to show. Don't surround yourself with yes men, because, yeah, I do feel like the more. Uh, yeah, locks has something to say. Locks tell us are you gonna throw a chair off broadway or off broadway, off a building and on broadway? No, he's not. He's gonna be a perfect angel always, always, just like his dad all right bottle time.

Speaker 2 13:51

Here we go, you hungry buddy. Yeah, I don't know, that's uh a wild well, I saw, we'll just put that anywhere.

Speaker 3 14:00

Um, I oh, oh remember when I said I told him right here I saw that his court date was confirmed for, like, let's say, may 3rd or something, but it is the day of his Nashville stadium show. So he's got to go to court in the morning and then perform at Nissan at night, which will be fine. Again, nothing's going to change for him. He's not going to change his behavior. This is a slap on the wrist Him paying whatever. What's it called Bond Bail?

Speaker 2 14:31

Yeah, 15,000.

Speaker 3 14:32

Yeah that's a farting hurricane for him when it comes to money, yeah, he's probably drunk on Broadway right now.

Speaker 2 14:38

Probably.

Speaker 3 14:39

Booth, you're a mess. I am a mess right now You're a mess. Your phone's ringing, the microphone's falling. You drop the passy, the kid's kind of eating thank you, appreciate that all right.

Speaker 2 14:50

Well, morgan vaughn, he's an idiot. Moving on, and you?

Speaker 3 14:55

know he's still going to be successful. He is an idiot, but I'm sure he'd say the same thing about himself yeah exactly, I'm still going to listen to his music and I'd probably still go to his concert and rock out, so yeah, unbothered speaking of rocking rocking out his BFF Hardy so I went to Tortuga this past weekend.

Speaker 3 15:11

I have never been to a Hardy concert. I take that back. I have been to a Hardy concert in like 2018, when he was opening for Morgan, when they were nobodies and Morgan didn't wear sleeves. Remember when he went through that like plaid cut off.

Speaker 2 15:24

Right.

Speaker 3 15:25

So I have not seen people know who Hardy is is basically what I'm saying. It was electric. I have never heard a louder crowd. It was insane. I mean, granted, I have never seen a drunker crowd either, but he started singing wonder wall, you know, like saying maybe, and he said three words. The remainder was the crowd. I was like, okay, I mean, and he said three words, the remainder was the crowd. I was like, okay, I mean, I don't know. I feel like you've dabbled in this because you've been on TV and people have cared that you're alive, but can you imagine that many people showing up for you, yeah, for him.

Speaker 3 15:59

Yeah, only like.

Speaker 2 16:01

Well, he's been, yeah, he's been blowing up that whole crew. I was going to say Ernest Morgan and blowing up that whole crew. I was earnest morgan and hardy laney. Jelly roll that lane is like doing really well. Yeah for them yeah, they're doing good. They got a nice little group there. Uh, they continue to kill it. They've all done their own thing.

Speaker 2 16:17

Yeah, hardy's good. I just laugh because every time I think of hardy, I think of how I sprained his ankle in the celebrity softball game and so every time we see each other he's just like you motherfucker. So because we played against each other like three years in a row now and I'm always going against him and earnest and earnest is always pitching and hardy's always catching, so we always just talk shit. And then it was an intense game. They were sliding, we're sliding, and then I was running home like sprinting around the bases and all I see is chuck wicks behind. Uh, hardy yelling, slide, slide, slide. He's jumping up and down. So I slid and tries to get in the way and then I hit his ankle and then the next day he was in a walking boot and he messaged me he's like I'm getting an mri right now. I was like how's your? I was like sending him as I'm like use your ankle, finds like I'm at the hospital getting an mri.

Speaker 3 17:07

Because you broke his ankle.

Speaker 2 17:08

He didn't break it but so he had a walking boot. And then a buddy of mine said I just saw Hardy at the airport in a walking boot. He's going on his bachelor party Walking boot Because I slid into him.

Speaker 3 17:20

And that is just a little slice of Nashville. That's what it's like that's the most Nashville story I've ever heard.

Speaker 2 17:25

Yeah, and now he's selling out Tortuga. Yeah, and then I saw him at a gun shop like shortly after.

Speaker 3 17:31

He's good people.

Speaker 2 17:32

Yeah, I like Hardy.

Speaker 3 17:34

Also, why were you hanging out at a gun shop?

Speaker 2 17:37

I was getting a gun.

Speaker 3 17:38

And Hardy was there Also, the most Nashville thing I've ever heard. Yeah, he's like hey man just getting another one.

Speaker 2 17:44

I know that's why people are probably like Nashville is kind of crazy. I'm like, yeah, it kind of is. You just walk in a gun shop and then I'm just like what's up party.

Speaker 3 17:52

I don't think that this town is for germs.

Speaker 2 17:57

What's a?

Speaker 3 17:57

germ.

Speaker 1 17:58

What's a germ?

Speaker 3 17:59

A germ is someone who is like super cringy fan like way too much.

Speaker 1 18:04

Oh yeah, for sure.

Speaker 3 18:12

No fan like way too much. Yeah, you can't like. You got to be chill because they're just walking amongst us. They're at gun shops yeah, they're at the local softball game that you're going to break their ankle at. They're everywhere, yeah, um, but they uh also throw chairs off the roof and broadway, don't?

Speaker 2 18:18

they are just like us. I have.

Speaker 3 18:21

I have been very inebriated and I've never even thought about throwing a chair off a roof I've you know, I thought about sliding into someone's ankle.

Speaker 2 18:30

Yeah, I was on Broadway this was actually after Justin Bieber concert and I was with my ex Caitlin and we were drinking a lot and her grandfather had just passed away and she was upset and she was crying and then she got like real drunk and was pretty sloppy and we're on the rooftop.

Speaker 3 18:51

Is this when people took pictures of her in the bathroom.

Speaker 2 18:52

Yeah, and so she was like crying and people wanted to stop taking videos and photos of me and her and we probably should have obviously just left. We did, but she was getting so mad she went to the bathroom bathroom stall and then a girl was going underneath the bathroom stall with her phone taking videos, yeah, and so she came out all fired up.

Speaker 3 19:11

Go home.

Speaker 2 19:12

And so I, I and they wouldn't stop, and I grabbed the girl's phone.

Speaker 3 19:16

Yeah.

Speaker 2 19:16

And I as you showed for a second I thought about throwing it off the roof. I swear it went through my head and I was right on the edge and I almost and I was and I stopped and I gave back to her and I was like, oh boy, that wasn't good and I felt terrible, but in the moment it was close it was close but you know what?

Speaker 3 19:37

you could probably kill someone throwing a cell phone off the roof.

Speaker 2 19:39

I know, I thought that I woke up and I was like that would have been so bad and like they sent in a bunch of like you know they were talking to tabloids- and all this. And then they called people and so when we came out downstairs they had all these like kids coming out. It was a disaster and I felt really bad the next morning because I was like man, that was our fault for putting ourselves in that situation, Drinking that much while you're emotional and yeah.

Speaker 2 20:07

Well, alcohol just makes everything, everything worse, like that girl probably was like oh, I probably should have been doing that of course.

Celebrating the Masters and Golf Fans

Speaker 3 20:12

Well, I hope I don't know. Some people have no shame. Yeah, I do have to say like I kind of applaud the delusion that some fans have. Like I mean, obviously old dominion has a different crowd than Hardy or Morgan or anybody who's like young, hip and hot. Old Dominion is like an established older crowd. Yeah, and they're still insane.

Speaker 3 20:37

And I love them dearly. Don't get me wrong, but like sometimes when I see people who have no shame in their game, I'm kind of envious of that, like just complete delusion in their game. I'm kind of um, envious of that, like just complete delusion. Have no idea how uncomfortable the situation is, just like so unaware. It kind of gets them far, though. So maybe we should try.

Speaker 2 20:55

Yeah, you know, a different type of fan group are the fans that go to the masters and the PGA tour fans. And uh, that's where I was yesterday Went to the masters, and if you don't know golf or don't follow golf, the Masters is like the Super Bowl. It's the biggest tournament in the world for golf. It is literally they call it a tradition like no other. There's so much history there. It's in Augusta, georgia. It's really hard to get tickets, really hard to get tickets, and my good buddy, dusty, got us tickets for the practice round, and so it is like you enter a whole new world. When you go there, you can't have your phone. You got to leave your phones in the car, which is awesome, right, so you aren't allowed to take phones on the course.

Speaker 2 21:44

They have the same sandwiches that they've had for like 30, 40, 50 years and it's all the same price, Same price. So $3 for a sandwich, a couple of dollars for water and it's just like homemade, like white bread. Throw some cheese on there or meat Um, it's just the most beautiful course ever.

Speaker 3 22:01

Are you a good golfer?

Speaker 2 22:03

Yeah, I can be. I've been golf since I've been four years old.

Speaker 3 22:06

That doesn't mean you're good.

Speaker 2 22:08

No, okay, I'm asking you actually. Yeah, golf is a game. It's the hardest sport out there, I believe, and it is the one sport where you can only be good if you're playing all the time. You have to play all the time to be good.

Speaker 3 22:21

I can see that it is so hard.

Speaker 2 22:23

I could go out there and shoot really, really good, and then the next day I could just suck it up because I have no consistency. The best I was when I was in high school, playing on my high school team. We have to play every single day, so it's a, it's a, it's an awesome game and it's something that I want to get him to do.

Speaker 3 22:41

What was the highlight? What was the highlight of the masters then?

Speaker 2 22:45

The first person we saw out there. So you just walk out to the course and the pros kind of go off on their own. They practice, they're playing the hole with their buddies. They'll drop multiple shots. So it's not like they're keeping score, you know. If they like miss, hit it, they'll just drop another one and we're like all right, we don't know where any of the guys are. We walk out and the first person we see we're like all right, we don't know where any of the guys are.

Speaker 3 23:09

We walk out and the first person we see we're like is that Tiger? No way yeah.

Speaker 2 23:11

I know that one.

Speaker 3 23:11

Yeah, we're just following Tiger Woods like from me to you Coming out speaking like Tiger Woods wife yeah, name that song and that's like ludicrous. Wow, I'm Tiger.

Speaker 2 23:23

Woods is the best golfer of all time, one of the most famous people in the world.

Speaker 3 23:29

Okay.

Speaker 2 23:29

And just a legend. And just watching him, he will be the greatest golfer ever to live in our lifetime. And just watching him, golf was insane.

Speaker 3 23:39

I was right now years old when I realized that Tyler who is Tyler? We don't know him. Tiger is still playing.

Speaker 2 23:46

I thought he retired.

Speaker 3 23:49

No, no, okay. So dumb question and I'm just gonna put out there how did you go to the masters on a monday when I was hanging out with your child, and I'm going to the masters this weekend I know, and it still exists, were your like practice rounds or what's going on like how long is this?

Speaker 2 24:02

so monday um was yesterday monday, no tuesday, so so Tuesday was a practice round. Okay, they get to practice whenever they want.

Speaker 3 24:11

You were there on Monday, though that's a practice round as well.

Speaker 2 24:14

Monday we drove down to Georgia, like an hour and a half away from Augusta, stayed in a hotel, I watched the Yukon Huskies kill Purdue and then woke up four hours later, and then we drove another hour and a half two hours to snuggle we had separate hotel rooms oh yeah, so weird like that.

Speaker 2 24:33

So we drove an extra couple hours in the morning, got up around 4 30 and then we were there all day for their practice rounds. Like I said, you can go wherever you want on the course. It's kind of almost better than the masters because there's not as many people. You have more access to the players.

Speaker 3 24:49

You get to see them messing around yeah, did you get to talk to anybody, or is it just no, they're all like roped in like you.

Speaker 2 24:54

Still, they have the spectator zones and all that, but they'll also. There's a tradition where they um have a little pond right there and everybody sits around this pond, this part three, and everybody yells like skip it, skip it. It's so ridiculous. And then the golfers will walk up after they hit their t-shot, they'll drop a ball. And there's this, the grandstands right there, and they try to skip the golf ball all the way across the pond to get it on the green, like skipping a rock, and the crowd just goes crazy. It's just like a tradition they've been doing for years. Boys will be boys. Yeah, it's funny, it's like the things that get guys excited. Yes, so today, I believe, is a par three contest and then tomorrow, thursday, friday, saturday, sunday, are the four rounds for the tournament. And another thing with the Masters, what?

Speaker 3 25:44

does a round mean Like all 18 holes okay?

Speaker 2 25:47

yeah, so you got four rounds. Round one and two are thursday and friday. If you make the cut, which is like the top, I don't know uh, I think they split it in half, I believe is it an average of your scores or something?

Speaker 3 26:03

you add your scores up right, yeah, it's not an an average, it's not an average.

Speaker 2 26:06

You add.

Speaker 3 26:07

Oh, add.

Speaker 2 26:08

So you're going to have 18 holes plus 18 holes, right?

Speaker 3 26:11

Top 50.

Speaker 2 26:11

The top 50 players in ties if you're tied 50. How?

Speaker 3 26:14

many people are in this thing. There's a lot this thing listen to me like it's not the biggest golf tournament in the nine Top 50 after the first two days, and that's the big thing.

Speaker 2 26:29

Making it to the weekend, you want to make it to the weekend of the Masters and then. So Thursday and Friday you play with two other people, so it's groups of three.

Speaker 3 26:36

Do you think you can make top 50? Absolutely not, Sam Cat this is the greatest golf tournament in the world. Listen, you said you were a good golfer yeah, not that good.

Speaker 2 26:45

I was talking to Dusty. I'm like what would you shoot at this course? And Dusty's better than I am Way better and he will shoot. You know he could shoot 70s on a course around here, 80 around here. He's smiling and laughing at me. He said he'd shoot like 100 out there. It's crazy.

Speaker 3 27:02

It's so hard yeah 100 is bad.

Speaker 2 27:11

Okay, so I would get 100. Yeah, these guys will shoot 70. These guys will shoot even par under par. Tiger Woods search Tiger.

Speaker 3 27:16

Woods best round at the Masters. Why is the Masters such a big deal?

Speaker 2 27:19

Because it's all about tradition. They've kept everything the same. You win a green jacket if you win.

Speaker 3 27:25

Oh my God, like Shooter McGavin.

Speaker 2 27:28

Yeah, exactly yeah, and it's like the most prestigious event, like you want to. You can only once you win the Masters. You get invited back every year.

Speaker 3 27:37

Until you don't win yeah.

Speaker 2 27:38

And it's the most watched one.

Speaker 3 27:40

Wait, wait, wait, why 1996.

Speaker 2 27:43

So Tiger shot a 66, a 65, a 69.

Speaker 3 27:48

Still the record to this day.

Speaker 2 27:50

His final 54 holes. Yeah, he was 21 years old.

Speaker 3 27:54

Jordan Spieth.

Speaker 2 27:55

Yeah.

Speaker 3 27:56

I know him. He's from Texas.

Speaker 2 27:57

Yeah.

Speaker 3 27:57

He went to high school with my cousin.

Speaker 2 27:59

So that is like if you have a good round at the Masters, it will-.

Speaker 3 28:03

Set you up for life.

Speaker 2 28:04

Set you up for life. It will change your career. It will change your career. It will change your sponsorships.

Speaker 3 28:08

The real question is how much money did he win when he like? Do you win money at the masters?

Speaker 2 28:14

or not. Yeah, of course you win. You probably want a couple million, but it's more than the money.

Speaker 3 28:20

No, no, I do understand, like the uh, almost gentleman's agreement.

Speaker 2 28:23

Oh, 3.24 million prize money for a round of golf yeah, good for him not as much as the live tour, but uh, it's, it's wild, it is so cool and, yeah, I think it's just a tradition so if you get top three, that's 744 000.

Speaker 3 28:43

Like, yeah, you could just do top three and be set for google.

Speaker 2 28:46

Uh, zalatoris this kid was.

Speaker 3 28:50

Let's see how google the hardest name I've ever said out loud yeah look at this kid Dude's.

Speaker 2 28:55

Alatorre's best major finish. He is 12 years old, he looks.

Speaker 3 29:01

Wait, wait, wait. Is he in the Masters?

Speaker 2 29:02

Yeah, we were following him around a little bit.

Speaker 3 29:04

He looks like a golfer. He went viral because they were comparing him to His dad is the CEO.

Speaker 2 29:10

They're comparing him to Happy Gilmore's caddy the blonde kid.

Speaker 3 29:13

Oh my gosh, Maybe that's why he looks familiar, the subway guy.

Speaker 2 29:17

No, no, no, the little blonde kid. So anyways, will Zalatouris. He came on the tour a couple years ago he's 27 now and Tiger won what three, four years ago. He came out of nowhere and he was like 20 young 20s and nobody knew him and he was in like the final pairing on the last day of sunday and it's just changed his life. Obviously he made a ton of money and now he's playing really well. Everybody knows him, so it's it's people like that that will break through are you looking, looking for an upset?

Speaker 3 29:53

finish here Like are you?

Speaker 2 29:54

you want this kid to win Um it would be awesome, but, uh, I'm going to bet on it.

Speaker 3 30:03

Oh, so no.

Speaker 2 30:05

I love betting on the masters. I'll pick a couple of people, the two guys that I want to win it. I'm going to bet on Brooks Koepka.

Speaker 3 30:10

Okay, want to win it.

Speaker 2 30:16

I'm gonna bet on brooks kepka okay, he's got great odds, he is.

Speaker 3 30:18

You're gonna say he's got great eyes. Great eyes too. I'm like oh, is he a hottie? What's going on? He's a stud, okay he just had a baby.

Speaker 2 30:22

He's kind of uh, people love him or hate him. Okay he is, he's got that. Um, he's got that dog in him, sam cat I do love that brooks kepka's got the dog in him. He kind of doesn't give a shit. He doesn't like hold back his interviews are pretty hilarious. People think he's kind of an asshole, but he's just straight up and he's real. Um, he's a strong dude. He's got five or six majors already and he hasn't won the masters yet okay he went to the live tour.

Speaker 2 30:48

I'm not going to get into the live tour with you what is a?

Speaker 3 30:50

a live tour, so Taylor Swift we'll go real quick on this.

Speaker 2 30:55

The live tour there's only been like professional golf has been the PGA tour since forever. Right, the best players in the world go there.

Speaker 3 31:02

PGA baby.

Speaker 2 31:03

Yeah, and that's what your goal is. It's very again. Traditional golf is like you know a white man's wet dream. Yeah, there you go, then the.

Speaker 3 31:13

Live Tour came out.

Speaker 2 31:14

The Live Tour tried to shake things up, and they are backed by a Saudi Arabia company that has billions of dollars. So they came and they started taking. They're like we're going to create our own league. It's going to be more fun, it's going to be for the younger crowd, it's going to be more electric, you're going to play in teams and, as opposed to this old game that we've been playing for years, we're going to spice it up a little bit. And not only that we're going to take the best players from pj tour and we're going to pay them a hundred times more than any of you guys. Wow. So these guys at the live tour bold move they're making millions of dollars per event.

Speaker 2 31:50

they they're not even winning, so they're like.

Speaker 3 31:53

Wait, can I be drafted by the Liv Tour?

Speaker 2 31:54

So then it was a huge, huge fight, and some players around the PGA Tour they're like F the Liv Tour.

Speaker 3 32:02

I like that you've censored yourself. Yeah, because your kid's here.

Speaker 2 32:04

Exactly. And then the guys that went to Liv Tour. They ended up getting the best golfers in the world for the most part.

Speaker 3 32:10

Yeah.

Speaker 2 32:11

They were just like offering like we're going to give you hundreds of millions of dollars If you come live tour can live tour, participate in the masters. Yeah, so this is why um Brooks Koepka is going to be competing in the masters. He's not on, he's on the live tour. So he doesn't compete for the rest of the year unless he's in the majors. So there, the Live Tour offered Tiger Woods a billion dollars to come play there.

Speaker 3 32:33

One with a B. Yeah, a, b, it was like 800, 900 million Wait come to play there, but they're still playing at the Masters. So they're playing at the same place that the PGA is happening.

Speaker 2 32:40

Yeah, but they're not playing every week, the PGA Tour has a season where they go around the country and they play at different cities and they have four major events.

Speaker 3 32:48

Pebble Beach. I've heard of that one.

Speaker 1 32:49

Yeah, it also originally looked like they weren't going to be able to do both right.

Speaker 3 32:53

Right, so they weren't.

Speaker 1 32:54

It looked like it was going to be exclusive, like if you go to live, you go to live and you can't do PGA too. And then PGA realized they lost everybody, so they were like you can.

Speaker 2 33:01

Yeah, so they lost their biggest, youngest, best golfers to the live tour. I love this golfing tea, Brooks Koepka, DJ Dustin Johnson, who went to Lift Tour. Google how much Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka made for Lift Tour.

Speaker 3 33:18

Well, I'm all in on Brooks, number one. That's like my favorite Wait. Remember when we did not discuss this. I feel like this is the first time we've talked about it since, but 25 years ago when Dre was pregnant in here and we talked about what boys' names you liked and you said Brooks. We had never spoken about that.

Speaker 2 33:34

I know Brooks is, like my number one, way too popular.

Speaker 3 33:37

Oh, okay, wow hater, how much did they pay him?

Speaker 1 33:39

So, this is Dustin got $35 million.

Speaker 2 33:41

No, they paid him more than that to go. That's how much he's made, right.

Speaker 3 33:45

What does live stand for Brooks?

Speaker 2 33:47

got $100 million. Brooks got Brooke's got a hundred million as a signing bonus for joining. Now you just saw the masters, so the masters they're winner. No, he's got a wife and he's had a baby.

Speaker 3 34:01

Oh, good for him, good for her. Great job, guys.

Speaker 2 34:04

I'm proud of them so you're talking about the masters, the greatest event in the PJ tour, and they make a million if they win. So he got a hundred million dollars just to show up, and so people are trashing him.

Speaker 3 34:17

They hate him because he left and it's like everybody calls him a sellout.

Speaker 2 34:20

Yeah.

Speaker 3 34:20

No, you know who calls him a sellout Dusty old white men that are comfortable in their life. It's like how dare you push the boundaries? Go for it, brooks. You got a family to provide for.

Speaker 2 34:30

So that's showing Dustin Johnson. He's reportedly guaranteed 150 million.

Speaker 1 34:34

Yeah, the 35 was. You're right. It was just what he's made so far. On bonuses yeah, His guarantee is reportedly upwards of 150 million.

Speaker 3 34:42

Yeah, I cannot even fathom that much money. Yeah, it's raining in my bedroom right now. Yeah, and these guys were getting lit up.

Speaker 2 34:49

These guys were getting lit up for leaving, and now you got guys on the PGA, who are like. I'm never going to go Like Rory McIlroy, who is like a traditionalist yeah, yeah and he's played the game since a young kid. He was very critical of all these guys that left. So there's some beef, there's a lot of beef and, like PGA Tour was basically probably going to start going downhill pretty bad.

Speaker 3 35:16

Oh, really, and they were yeah.

Speaker 2 35:18

And a lot of it is also backed by Saudi Arabia money, and that was the main thing. So, and there had there was like correlation to terrorism from these guys, and so now you got people being like you're getting paid by the terrorists, by the same people who like- Wait, has this been confirmed or it's just like speculation? We can't confirm it.

Speaker 3 35:41

It's just, but we kind of can yeah, oh interesting.

Speaker 1 35:45

Kind of right Like-. Yeah, it's kind of like a gray area, but it's kind of like oh, where there's smoke, there's fire, yeah.

Speaker 3 35:52

Okay, so maybe I don't support it.

PGA Tour and Masters Banter

Speaker 2 35:54

I spoke too soon, but it's like, yeah, I mean money talks, right Of course. And then all this is going on and the PGA Tour guy I think the president of the PGA Tour came out and made a statement like that and literally made a statement about how these families and people who have dead relatives from 9-11, you guys are supporting them from the live tour. They're getting paid by those people, right? So this is what the PGA tour guy came out and said what a bold statement. And then months later-.

Speaker 3 36:25

Took money from them.

Speaker 2 36:26

He teamed up with them. Yeah, Classic. Yeah and said oh hey, we got a great deal. Liv and PGA are going to team up because that's because you had no other choice.

Speaker 3 36:34

What's your price? What's your price? Yeah, everybody has a price, I know.

Speaker 2 36:37

At first I was like I wouldn't go to Liv Tour I'm very tradition. But then I'm like these guys are the best in the world. You can only play for so long. You can get an injury, you can get set up generational wealth and you can still compete in the majors.

Speaker 3 36:56

150 million dollars that is generational wealth that will change his children's life and his children's children.

Speaker 2 37:01

Yeah yeah, so I'm going for brooks kepka and number two, xander shawfly. Xander shawfly is uh, stud, he is number one, the major master, or no?

Speaker 3 37:16

Are you sure that name is not Xander?

Speaker 2 37:18

Xander, xander Shoffley.

Speaker 3 37:20

You said Xander. Is that right? I don't know. I don't know him. I've never met him, I've never heard of him. But I do have two people to root for. Now I'll be on your team.

Speaker 2 37:28

Xander Shoffley and Brooks Koepka.

Speaker 3 37:30

I'm going to be way out of my league this weekend, but I will wear a very cute dress and clap politely, so I think that'll fit in.

Speaker 2 37:36

Tell Brooks. I said what's up?

Speaker 3 37:39

Oh, I will, I'm just kidding.

Speaker 2 37:41

It's funny though, because I was talking about with Dusty yesterday, looking at some of the guys. We have these big dudes like Brooks and DJ.

Speaker 3 37:48

What does big dudes mean? They're taller, they're like just big dudes. Yeah, like tall, like they could be offensive linemen not that, yeah, just calm down over there, calm down, god, yeah, uh.

Speaker 2 37:59

And then you got little guys like xander shawfly, uh, jordan speith, uh rory's kind of he's a middle range guy who are just out there just like finesse, and just they, they all drive the ball a ton, but I just like that brooks, like this big, strong athletic dude who is he happy? No, okay, pull up a picture of brooks for sam no, no, I'm just saying.

Speaker 3 38:22

I'm just saying like, is his demeanor like happy gilmore?

Speaker 2 38:25

like happy gilmore did not no, not like that, like he is uh, he's the outlier. He just doesn't give a yeah, I think he fed into like more people hating on him um oh, hey, brooks oh so one of the funny things is too like he was.

Speaker 2 38:46

He gets pissed off. And there's this one guy on the tour and last year he came out. He's like I can't play behind that guy. He takes forever he and he was making fun of him. He's like why can't we just go up there and hit the ball? You know like the guy stands with a ball and he waggles a bunch and it's incredibly annoying. You have to sit there and wait and wait, and wait and wait. And so Brooks called him out and made a comment about it. Guess who they paired Brooks with on the first round? Yep, yeah, so he's playing with him tomorrow. So that's also like the Masters doing a complete troll job, being like the PGA Tour. We don't like you. Guess who you're playing with.

Speaker 3 39:20

You know what I respect that, though. That's a power move.

Speaker 2 39:23

By the Masters.

Speaker 3 39:24

Yes, 100%.

Speaker 2 39:25

Yeah.

Speaker 3 39:26

You're going to go in public and complain about something. Let me show you what I can do. Yeah, I respect it. I mean, I don't say that I support it, but I respect it. I get it.

Speaker 2 39:34

Yeah, if you're making $150 million.

Speaker 3 39:36

you can just like do whatever I say Right.

Speaker 2 39:38

And also Brooks. Last year he led the Masters for Thursday, friday, saturday at a two-shot lead going into Sunday and he blew it and he's been so upset he has the redemption chip yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 3 39:49

Well, I can't wait to watch it unfold. Yeah, from my tour bus, that's what we're going to do.

Speaker 2 39:53

We're going to watch it unfold. You guys hopefully, watch along with us at home. Samcat, you need to get the hell out of here and get some rest.

Speaker 3 40:00

Guys, I have to say I think I did pretty good.

Speaker 2 40:02

Yeah.
