The Pitts brothers discuss the split of Meagan Thee Stallion and Clay Thompson, as well as the troubles of Tiger Woods. 

SPEAKER_03

I'm Marshall Pitts. Model Pitts. Myron Pitts. And we are MP3. Welcome to the MP3 Show, your trio of talk radio with Marshall, Miguel, and Myron. We love to talk about sports, politics, entertainment, and we're glad to be here in the studios today. We have a pretty good lineup for you. And Myron's gonna lay that, run that down for. But first, let me ask my brothers how you guys are doing. That was a week. That was a week, man. But okay. Okay, we know we're on the air, right?

SPEAKER_02

Truth and advertisement. Doing all right. We're still breathing. That's the only thing you ask for, right? Need dates.

SPEAKER_03

We're still at it. All right, well, go move on since you're spreading the love like that.

SPEAKER_04

But go ahead, Myron. Give us a lot of it. Yeah, so we got a couple topics here we're gonna talk about. Uh one is uh a couple uh the split. Uh Major and the Stallion, uh, you know, artists, uh rap RB artists, actress, uh, and Klay Thompson, uh basketball star. They were one of the it couples, and they have split. And based on what Megan was saying on the social media, it's because Klay was running around.

SPEAKER_03

She's alleged infidelity.

SPEAKER_04

Well, you know, and that's that's uh sadly not an uncommon story, especially when it comes to celebrities, but this one kind of kind of hit hit people a little bit different, particularly African-American women. So we'll talk a little bit about that. Yeah, they're not happy about that at all. Yeah, and then secondly, we're gonna talk about Tiger Woods, um, who is I guess you could say has had his his own problems. Uh he had a turnover, uh, car crash. Uh not the first time. It's his second or third one. I think it's his third one, his second rollover. Right. So he's lucky to start with the driver. He's lucky to still be with us. Uh he's right now because he doesn't want people in his business. That's right, right. So we'll talk about all that. But right now, street driver. He is in rehab. And we will see if in Switzerland, we'll see if he's gonna come back and be close to close to differently. They get off drugs differently than the rest of us. Close to the tiger woods that he used to be. So we'll talk about it.

SPEAKER_03

You can do that. You can do that. I wonder what what part of Switzerland he's in, though. You'll know, you'll never know. That's right. I'm sure it's an undisclosed location.

SPEAKER_02

Undisclosed location.

SPEAKER_04

Right.

SPEAKER_02

Even the people at this rehab don't know he's there.

SPEAKER_04

That's right. That's right. Right. So, and you know, he uh so we'll so we'll talk about Tiger here in a second, but Megan the Stallion. So um And she spells the it's the not the T-H-E. T H so there's only one Megan the Stallion, if you go by her name. She's out of Houston, uh, big star, uh certainly uh good rapper for this generation. Solid, solid, you know, solid rapper. Uh she can sing pretty good, too. And sing, can't sing, very talented, multi-talent. She is the entertainer. He's an entertainer, right? And so, as a matter of fact, before all this happened with her uh now ex-boyfriend, Clay Thompson, she was starring on Moulin Rouge on Broadway. In Broadway. So that that kind of shows you she's got some chops.

SPEAKER_03

They said she did her, was doing an excellent job, too. She left early though.

SPEAKER_04

She left about two weeks earlier because of this breakup. Really? Yeah, now now she put out we're gonna talk about the differences between men and women, right?

SPEAKER_02

When it comes to something like that. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Well, men could get tore up too. They go break up.

SPEAKER_02

They're gonna keep pressing ahead to make it. They're gonna keep pressing ahead to try to make that doubt up.

SPEAKER_04

Right. But but but she put uh she she made uh uh really a public matter out of the situation. They're a public couple, so it's not inappropriate that she makes public that they're broke up. You can't add it in. And she said, she said, you know, quite quite frankly, that he was running around. I mean, you know, he she talked about how he wanted uh uh you know the play family, play house, play family. She, you know, she talked about cooking for him, uh, and uh meeting her family, his people, and then he's doing his thing over there. Um, and the specific meal she was talking about previously, last Thanksgiving, this past November, she had on her socials her doing all this prep, this holiday prep. Getting ready for him. Getting ready for him, simmering greens overnight, whipping up her homemade dressing, barbecue, baked beans, the whole deal. I mean, it was a it was a nice little nice little scene there. Right. And then apparently he was he was uh doing his thing. And you know, she she felt like he wasn't who he said he was. Um and and that's and that you know led her to He wasn't who he said he was. He wasn't who he said he was, right, right, but he is who we know he is.

SPEAKER_02

Well, I don't know. From all the reports, right from all the reports. He is uh serial based on what people are saying. Based on what I mean, a lot of people are saying it though. No, no, he's that's what I'm saying. When a lot of people listen, if one person says that stuff catches wildfire, though. If one if one woman or man says something, you know, that's that's one thing. If two women or men say something, then that's another three women, four women, five women, there's gotta be some type of truth to somebody.

SPEAKER_03

As I dad would say, if everybody's saying the same thing, everybody's not lying.

SPEAKER_00

Everybody can't be lying.

SPEAKER_04

Sometimes they're lying, but not typically. And you know, he has uh dated a series of of uh somewhat high profile women, very good looking women, uh series of very good looking women, including Megan the Stallion. Um, and so and there have been throughout uh talk that you know he kind of runs around.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_04

Uh so did Megan the Stallion know this? Did she know it and think he was gonna be different with her? Which is not unusual for people to think.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, usually two approaches to it. They'll take one would be they they're naive and didn't know that this guy was like that. The other approach is, well, they know, but I can I can change him, I can make him be different, but he won't want to do that anymore. That's those are the two types of situations that you see.

SPEAKER_04

And and and we saw if y'all have seen some of the social media uh response to this, and what stuck out to me, because I didn't even know they were a couple, I I just didn't follow them that close. Black women are mad. They're mad, right? And you know, and I'm and um trying to figure it out why this one bothers why this situation bothers a lot of African American women.

SPEAKER_02

If when when you have someone that's this high profile, this accomplished, this much going on, making this much money, hold on, and then someone cheats on them, then people then what chance do I think what chance do the rest of the women think that they have at that point? When if someone can cheat on Megan the Stallion, then he can cheat on anyone. But again, when you go into this relationship, when you go into this relationship, I I find it hard to believe that she did not know he was a serial cheater. So I'm thinking it's along the lines of that she can change him. I'm Megan the Stallion, I can change him, he's gonna want to be with me, those type of things. And he's not going to run around like he did on all of those, you know, the the the rest of the women. And that that it just doesn't work that way.

SPEAKER_03

And and the and the women that are, I think why she hit such a core with most, a lot of black women, is because she was like the epitome of confidence, conf not just success, but confidence, you know, being a sure to herself, doing her thing. Also, not afraid to speak openly about what things she was going through, like her mental health, and and that attracted a lot of women too, as well.

SPEAKER_04

She was doing it right.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah. She was doing it, you know, she was she was a symbol.

SPEAKER_04

And we talked about that Thanksgiving dinner. So her post that she put, uh, I believe it was on Instagram, she said, quote, you had me around your whole family playing how house, got cold feet, uh, and that was on Instagram, holding you down through all your horrible, which she put in all caps, mood swings and treatment towards me during your basketball season. Now you don't know if you can be monogamous, several question marks. So clearly they had a conversation and which he, according to her, and he has not really spoken publicly about this as far as I think. Yeah, he needs to lay low right now. Yeah, yeah, there's nothing he's gonna say is gonna make anyone feel better. So so uh mum's the word. So clearly they had a conversation where apparently he he told her that he he was not in a position to be faithful, and which sounded like it was very much painful news to her. Um you know you're right, she uh I I think a lot of African-American women's hurt over this is that she is the kind of share, she shares her story, her journey, whether it's mental health, whatever. She's made all these great moves. She's a super woman. Um I would put her in diva status. Um and the thing about it is that it's never, I was not gonna say never, but it's almost never about the woman when a guy is running around. Uh it's usually about almost always about the guy. He's just not ready to settle down. Uh that that's really what it comes down to.

SPEAKER_02

He's just not ready. And he wasn't ready. And see, that's that's my my thing. Now, again, I I know that she is, I know that she is trying to, I know that you know, it's a public relationship. So when you have a public relationship, then you explain, people say, but why can't you just be quiet about it? If you didn't see her with uh Klay Thompson over the next few weeks, then people are gonna start. So she decided to take the bull by the horns and you know put this out there and and deal with it out there. I I would only say that the only thing I would say is that again, if she's the one if she did not know that Clay Thompson was like this, uh then she would probably be one of the few people who did not know he was like that. If you just Google his name, you'll see that he's had you know relationship problems and issues and go one from one woman to another. That's my thing.

SPEAKER_03

And those are there was a long trail of women, beautiful women and accomplished women that were you know in his you know behind him that he had dealt with. Maybe behind him. We don't know. Yeah, we don't know. Yeah, you know, there's always sometimes the residuals that may be taking place out there.

SPEAKER_04

Now you said, Margel, about that she Oh, there's somebody did a song.

SPEAKER_03

It was the Christian Brown did a song about my residuals, something like that.

SPEAKER_04

He'd be the type.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Um well versed. So uh he's got other issues altogether. But um you you mentioned that she thought she could change him. Now, we don't know. It's certainly possible that she thought he had changed. And to me, there's a difference. I mean, let's face it, a lot of a lot of guys out there can talk a good game. And and they can make you believe, make anyone believe that that they had changed, especially when you throw in love. See, love is so disoriented.

SPEAKER_02

When you when you when you out there and you out there running from one woman to one, yeah, that's what you're supposed to be. You're supposed to make a woman believe that you have settled down, that you have, you know, you've changed and all that. But look at his recent track history. I mean, he's he's got some some women just from 2023, 2022, yeah. And so it it it again, and and another thing too, you move women have a tendency to in these situations to move too quickly. You have a guy that's a serial cheater, and you already introduced him to his parent, to your parents, or you meeting his parents. Yeah, he meeting his family within the first year or so.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, you think that's too fast. Yeah, yeah, with that history of cat. You parents got all kinds of rules and regulations.

SPEAKER_02

One thing about one thing one thing we know, one thing we know about a guy who's running around, give him time.

SPEAKER_01

Right, he's gonna show you. He's gonna show that side of him. Sooner or later. He's in the game. So he's gonna show that side of him.

SPEAKER_03

And you the and you the new thing, like you're the new thing. And so, you know, when that starts to wear a little bit, if that's still in him, he'll come out.

SPEAKER_02

He'll come out. And and and when I say give him time, I don't mean no two or three down years down the road. I'm talking about shortly that will come out.

SPEAKER_04

I think it is reasonable to expect to meet someone's family within the first year. I think that's a very reasonable thing, whatever the guy's track record is.

SPEAKER_03

Well, for a lot of guys. Now she's not looking at him. Give him a few more money.

SPEAKER_04

She wouldn't have been before this. Looking at him uh like we on the outside would be looking at. See, we look at the track record, his past, you know, she's looking at him through the the goggles of love, love goggles, as they call them. You want you? You see him through that, she sees him through that prism, and presumably he should see her that way. So you you're not looking for them to necessarily mess up. You have you looking at him through an through an ideal type lens.

SPEAKER_03

So I can sort of see why so with like he said, don't don't hate the uh player, hate the game.

SPEAKER_04

No, no, I'm not saying that at all.

SPEAKER_02

Uh don't hate either one of them. Well, but don't hate the players.

SPEAKER_04

And then, you know, some of the discourse, and it was, you know, going to go this way, unfortunately. Uh, some of the discourse is looking at a lot of sisters are kind of looking at black men broadly. Yes, they are. Um, and I I've never I'm never uh a fan of painting with a broad brush, uh, because there are fateful men out there. Um I I think once you get into a you narrow that segment down to NBA players, uh, I think you get less numerically and statistically fewer fateful men. Uh but even in the NBA, I gotta believe there are some people. It's the ones you don't hear about. You know, the one that's that that's what sure, and you there are more people you don't hear about than who you hear about that are married and you never hear anything about them, their wives travel with them and all that other kind of stuff.

SPEAKER_02

But see, my thing about it, you you mentioned about Megan D. Stagon and talking about how she was in love. I and nothing wrong with that part. I'm talking about way prior to that, unless she was hit by like an Italian thunderbolt. And she and she just kind of fell in love with when she first saw him. Which is possible, which is possible. But if not for that, if she wasn't in love with when she first saw him, then you you got to look, you got to take a step back just like just like a man. I expect she certainly will, but just like a man would take a step back and just look at look at this woman. You you're gonna look at the woman, you're gonna be able to.

SPEAKER_03

No, some men fall hard too, but they do, they do, they do hard.

SPEAKER_02

I said they should.

unknown

Take a step back.

SPEAKER_02

They should, right, right. Let me see what she got going on. Let me see what her you know track record is, yeah, and those type things because you're right. Once you fall in love with somebody, and clearly she was hurt by this man.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

And they were and they were on two different levels. Clay still out there doing whatever he's doing. That's right. And then she's ready to settle down. And she was in love with this guy, ready to settle down. And but um but but think about it from this standpoint, too. How many of those power couples actually make it? There's not a lot of them that really not just power couples, you can talk about marriages in general. No, no, yeah, yeah. Marriages in general definitely. But even divorced, but even a lower rate is going to be among celebrities. Yeah, those marriages. The ones that are high profile, especially the ones that are high profile.

SPEAKER_03

So they usually just don't make it. So you do you think you see the same thing like in the WNBA and some of the professional women's sports? So my general question is for women for men and women together, are do men tend to be less faithful than women?

SPEAKER_04

Well, I think the data shows that. I'm pretty sure statistics on that.

SPEAKER_03

Why do you think that is?

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

See, because uh Chris Rock said it, but he said that men are only as faithful as their options, I think he said.

SPEAKER_04

Funny but cynical. Right, right.

SPEAKER_03

Um I think about uh you talked about Bill Clinton. You know, Bill Clinton was known for being a womanizer or whatever, and that's why he brought the whole men are only faithful as their options. He said, because you can't imagine Newt Gingrich, you know, being in the telling, well, I just wish these women would just back up. Also unfaithful, though. Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_04

He's got his opportunity to power got a lot to do with it. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. He was cheating on his wife who was sick with another woman. Yeah, that's new, and we see how he looks.

SPEAKER_02

Again, again, I mean the way I say it, I thought it's the way is a very appropriate first name. The way I say it about cheating is if people think about looks and former speaker of the house, by the way. People think about money and they think about looks and stuff like that. If you're in the game, you're in the game. It don't matter what you look like, right? How much money you got in your pocket, right?

SPEAKER_01

You either in the game or you're not in the game.

SPEAKER_02

And so, and you're either out there cheating around and those things. So, what what I would say is the dynamic has always been in this country, the dynamic has always been an all-powerful man, and that's what made this Megan this value situation different. An all-powerful man with all of this money running around on you know, someone who is quote unquote not as well known and maybe might be a nobody. And then so we when I nobody's mean as far as status and all that kind of stuff. Now, this dynamic is different. She is, I think more people would say they know Megan. Oh, yeah, she's definitely more below than that. No question about it. I know I know Clay Thompson because I watch basketball. But a lot of people might not know him as part of you know Gold State when they were winning those titles. And if you don't watch basketball, you don't know. She's a you know, entertainer, commercials, all kinds of stuff going on. So, I mean, I I just I just wonder as the dynamic changes, and it's going to change, because you you made the comment, yes, I do think more men cheat than women do. I do believe that. But as the dynamic changes, as there's more making the status, and there's as women have gained more power, and as they gain more power, will that dynamic still stay there?

SPEAKER_04

That'll be interesting to see. It'll be interesting to see. And if you look at Does they have more opportunities than that, yeah. If you look at just even going, this is a much broader and uh uh I would argue even more serious discussion. Uh, if you look at colleges right now, uh a lot more women than men, period. Not just even race, but in the African American community, it's even more weight. I mean, sisters are doing their thing.

SPEAKER_03

At some HBCU, it's historically black college and university, you'll have 70 to 80 percent of the student body beef women.

SPEAKER_04

Right. Yeah, so we're fast coming to a time where, particularly in our community, but even again, more broadly, uh, where you know women are gonna be and the ones in power and running things, and will they exhibit the same behaviors? I would hope not.

SPEAKER_02

And so But we shall see. And will will those same women that achieve that power and success, will they be willing to marry down? Marry down meaning someone who's you know doesn't make as much money as them, not as famous as they are, right? And those type of things, like men do all the time now. So are they gonna be willing to say, you know, I'll just because we would have to think that if Megan Justalia was dating uh Clay Thompson, uh the UPS driver, yeah, they might not be running around. He might be chilling in the crib, but again, he might be around. He might be running around.

SPEAKER_01

That's he might be in the game too. We might think that's crazy of him. Right, right.

SPEAKER_04

Now, the one thing before we leave the topic, um, so we mentioned she was on Moulin Rouge, um, and she uh, as we mentioned, was had got a good critical notice. Like she was good at it, right? But she ended that two weeks earlier. And part of this is to work on herself. She explained it uh and to deal with this. What do y'all think about that? Because uh just personally, it's her personal decision. Uh if she felt like she couldn't carry on and performed to the highest level, I totally understand it. But I'm also uh I feel like I would have liked to have seen her continue to push through. To push through. Right, push through.

SPEAKER_03

Right. Um because that's it, because she's had that reputation and that image of being somebody who's who's very strong, yeah, and you know, and and does what she needs to do.

SPEAKER_02

Not to not to diminish uh one year relationship. That's what we're talking about. But you're getting ready to diminish it. I feel like he's that's a seller, right? Not to not to diminish, not to diminish, but here we go. If you got 10 years in marriage, or five years in marriage, or five, even a five-year relationship, and that you are engaged, or something along those lines, then you might say to yourself, you know, and I've lost the person that I was just planning to spend the rest of my life with my life with and those type things. Which is what she can say. And I can't go one year. She's got one year, and so what I think depends on what happened in there. Right. Yeah, a whole lot must happen. Yeah. Because she's given up the uh opportunity of a lifetime. So we talked about the difference between men and women. I think we know that most men would have pushed forward. They might have done a bum job because they're all messed up in the head now. Yeah, because they've lost the love of their life.

SPEAKER_04

But they the men I think a lot of a lot of us men would have just from pure pride. Yeah. You just refuse to let it be known publicly.

SPEAKER_03

Right, right.

SPEAKER_04

They were so broken up by it.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_04

But I've seen some broken up men too. Oh my goodness. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

And the thing about men, sometimes they get broken up, then sometimes they get violent. There, you know. Right there, you know. So yeah, men do all kinds of things. I can't care, nobody can. Yeah, yeah. Men do all kinds of stuff when things are.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, but you know, Megan will bounce back. Oh my god. Um, no doubt about it. I mean, you just not from the talent. She she exudes to me very strong person. Right. Um Clay, you say he's what, 36 now. So, you know, a little long in the tooth for a sports star. Very much so. It's basically basketball. I thought you were going to say long in the tooth for a player. But maybe that too. But not really, not nowadays. Uh depends. Yeah. Yeah, you got to play.

SPEAKER_02

So that has a lot to do with it, too.

SPEAKER_04

Right. So we'll see what his next chapter is.

SPEAKER_02

They could extend his retirement, you know, push it back.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Well, see, what what the thing about it is, Clay, he needs to realize that, and sometimes the basketball players can't see beyond. Bad publicity is bad publicity. Now, if you ever talk to Clay Thompson, he's just like he's well spoken, you know, when they when they interview him at the games and stuff, he might want to be an announcer. He might want to, he might want to be partial owner of a team. He might want to do all of those things. You never know how much bad publicity can come back and can impact you later on.

SPEAKER_04

Right. Or who is in a decision-making role that could affect your career.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, decision making might say we don't really need them kind of making scallions. Yeah, we don't really need them kind of. He has he has to be thinking about that transition with to the next phase of his life. He made a lot of money playing basketball. He needs to be thinking about that transition.

SPEAKER_04

And you kind of touched just lightly over his image. It was kind of a clean cut. Yeah, it was. It was. It was that's a good transition to Tiger Woods. Um, who would have thought, you know, well, the you mind you, you've said uh the golden boy. You've got to be off air and on air for a radio show that what Tigers thinks his situation is starting to fall apart when he was found to be running around. Uh even on a level beyond what Clay was doing. I mean, just all kinds of women.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, that's a super clay clay, clay was in the clay was in Clay was in the minor leagues.

SPEAKER_04

To the stat, I mean, to the situation, I'm not excusing him, but to the situation, you wonder if there's like a sexual addiction or something there that Tiger would. There's no telling. There's no telling.

SPEAKER_02

And so and then he was able to with Tiger, things fell apart when he had that very first accident when he was from the house. Yeah and then come to find out his wife at the time, uh Ellen uh Nortegrinn, yeah. Ellen, you know, disclosed that he was having all these, they found out he's having all these affairs, and you know, we're talking about many coming out the women. Many, many women. Yeah, many, many women. We're not talking about five or six, seven, eight years, ten, twenty women. Yeah, and we're not talking about real relationships. No, no, no, no. We're talking about just it, capital I. Right. And so that destroyed his, and that that pretty much brought down him as far as a player, too, because that destroyed his public image. The golf player. The golf player. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_00

Different meanings of players, right?

SPEAKER_02

He was both a as a golfer. That brought that brought down him as far as people looking at him as thinking that you know Tiger was all clean cut, all American.

SPEAKER_04

But not one of the top guys and all that for endorsements. Yeah, if not number one. Right there.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, and there were very few people that knew that you know that he had all of this going on. And so the same thing will apply, you know, there's been all types of rumors that, you know, that his wife, his ex-wife now, kind of kind of knew some of that stuff was going on prior to them being married. She thought he had changed, of course. And then his public image was.

SPEAKER_04

She was accomplishing her all right. She was, you know, she had was working on the the golf tour when they met, but you know, she was uh a model as well.

SPEAKER_02

So um and so you know, he had all that going on, and then all of that came crashing down, and he's won very few times, majors since that time. Since that first injuries, and so then he had the injuries, he had all the wrecks and all the accidents, and then he had all the injuries, and that's when he started doing what the painkillers injuries from playing golf, right? And also injuries back and knees, yeah, and also injuries from the from the rollovers and stuff and uh and he got addicted.

SPEAKER_03

And so and people don't realize it's not that hard to get addicted to painkillers and stuff.

SPEAKER_01

And so if you're in pain, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

That's right. Right, right. That's right, that's correct. Right, and so and and people don't understand pain will drive you to some kind of you need some relief from somewhere if it gets severe enough. Yeah, and with his situation, he had a lot of injuries, man.

SPEAKER_02

That's why I hear people out of town, I hear people say, you know, you and you I know you as an attorney in my you probably do too. You know, hear people say all the time, I don't take no painkills. You haven't been in enough pain. You ain't been in any serious pain. Serious pain will make you always related to tooth pain. Yeah, you can't fight through that. If you gotta if you got a severe tooth problem or tooth infection or something. That's the one I definitely can't fight through that. I gotta get that addressed. You're gonna have to get that and after they address it, you're gonna take some pain through that. Right, right. You're not gonna say, no, I'm gonna tough and out. No, or give me some talibus.

SPEAKER_04

Because it because it affects everything. I I brought up the tooth pain, you know. I can't even concentrate when I got a bad toothache. Oh, you can't. I mean, I can't do nothing. So that's why people feel they have to address it. So in this latest, uh, the last accident he had, it was a rollover. It was in Jupiter, Florida, which is where he lives. Um he was not apparently injured, but the police have made sure to release a documentary's worth of photos and video about what happened. And he looked very bad. And he looked he looked terrible. Looked terrible in the video. The classic glassy eyed, and then and they did a breath alize, and it was zero.

unknown

Right.

SPEAKER_04

You know, so it wasn't alcohol.

SPEAKER_03

Well, it wasn't alcohol, no.

SPEAKER_04

Uh, they padded him down, they found a couple of poor uh pills, and they were they were pain, they were painkillers, and so it's clear that he is back on this awful cycle uh of using so now let me ask you a question.

SPEAKER_02

Does Tiger get you sent the you seen you saw the pictures and we saw the video? One point he was sleeping back there in the cruiser. Right after you finished totally tearing your cop. Yeah, but you see how puffy his eyes were? Is Tiger not getting any sleep at night?

SPEAKER_04

I wonder.

SPEAKER_02

He had some, I mean, you know, I've got bags on my eye, but he has some, you know, he got some luggage. Yeah. He got luggage up under his eyes. I was like, my goodness. I mean, yeah, and yeah, you know, of course, those pictures are gonna be with him. Oh, yeah. James Brown's Nick Noting, Nick Noting, you know, those pictures are gonna be with him.

SPEAKER_04

It's not as bad as those, thank goodness for him. But they they do look bad. And then really the video is you know, we talked about this. You know, I I wonder uh why was it necessary to release all of the videos they released of him sleeping? It wasn't necessary. There was one where he was yawning, and people would have frozen that people being on social media, make it look like he's screaming, like he's a madman back there. So uh he is in rehab, as we mentioned at the top of the show, uh abroad. Now, the other abroad. Wait, when you're abroad.

SPEAKER_00

That's right.

SPEAKER_04

You know, go down to the yeah, you know, rehab in your own city. Uh yeah, you gotta get abroad. So let's hope he works on that. Now, the other complicated this he has a complicated life, like many of us do. Uh, you know, his son Charlie, that's son of his ex-wife, you know, I think he just missed the cut of a major tournament, so he's got this golfing son. But then he also has uh relationship with a Trump, uh, Vanessa Trump. And they're they're pretty tight from what I'm hearing.

SPEAKER_03

President Trump's ex-dother.

SPEAKER_04

President Trump's, that's right. It was Donald Trump Jr.'s former wife. And now she's with Tiger. They're they're dating, they're not married, they're dating.

SPEAKER_02

She's got a pretty good track record, too, from all we're hearing.

SPEAKER_04

She's not doing too bad for us. She's not doing too bad for us. Uh from all we're hearing, she's kind of laid down the law. You know, yeah. I'm hearing that she wants to stay with him, but he's got to get on top of this. So that could be a positive.

SPEAKER_03

And she's making demands and stuff.

SPEAKER_04

That could be a her game must be tight. That could be a positive motivator. And you know, it's led to just, you know, Tiger is a private person. You know, I believe one of y'all said it may have been uh you might you need to get a driver if he's gonna be doing this, you know, drugs or whatever.

SPEAKER_02

Just get you a discreet driver. But maybe I'm signed a non-disclosure. He can't care what's going on back there in the back. And get you one of them glasses that roll up and do all you want. But what you don't want to do because you're driving, it'll be driving. Right.

SPEAKER_04

Drunk and wound up in it, because now he's got way more exposure than you would have had.

SPEAKER_02

And all of these accidents have been one car accidents. That's right. So it's him. So it's him. It's not like you know, it's some other type of accident. Someone else was like, fuck, it's all been one car.

SPEAKER_03

You know, that's been a friend for a long time. I wonder if he had non-disclosure agreements don't work. People break those uh get you an alcoholism or something. Yeah, yeah. Like OJ.

SPEAKER_04

That's literally riding. Driving the Bronco.

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, OJ dead. Not a word out of that. Not a word out of L.

SPEAKER_01

No interviews, nothing right.

SPEAKER_04

I've never heard of interviews. Not about OJ or anything. Right. So maybe Tiger does need that. But he does, you know, we're having some fun with it, but the the addiction that he has affects so many Americans. No doubt. And it happens just like he was saying, Marsha. People start on the phone. They get hurt on a job. And then uh, you know, I've been watching and re reading about the opioid epidemic, you know, and that's exactly how it happens to a lot of people. And the the drugs, uh, you know, particularly the one that was put out, uh Oxycona, right? It didn't scratch as long as it's supposed to. It's supposed to be 12 hours. After about nine hours, the person's back in pain again. It wears off, and the prescription says they're supposed to wait, uh, but they can't wait. Because, like as we were saying. So uh so Tiger is in that. Um we wish him the best. He's been in treatment before. We'll see if it sticks his time. Maybe not, maybe not in Switzerland. Right. Well, we'll see if it's time.

SPEAKER_03

Well, it's time for us to get out of here. We gotta wrap this thing, this thing up, and I want to thank everybody for tuning in. I am Marshall Pitts. Marjorie Pitts. I'm Myron Pitts, and we are MP3.
