Duke's Duke's bubble has been burst. They lose to North Carolina State. No. This is full disclosure. For the Awls. We could get a little loopy here because we just watched 12 hours of basketball non-stop.

My eyes feel like they're going to fall out of my head. I love every second of it. That's not a complaint, it is more of an explanation if my words don't.

No, never, it's always dogs go to die, dogs die there.

Unders go to die there. Um, we do have.

I am proud of how Max fought in that game. Best hair on the podcast. Ooh, nice check he makes watching March.

Yeah, yeah, champ week, okay uh, means he's strong.

Yeah, Max, say something nice about yourself.

Yeah, just text him, though. Yeah, I mean, cinema, text Max. I. I also admired how you fought tonight.

We had a subdued Max, What'd you call yourself? Mundane Max, Mundane Max?

Tried to try to tone it down a little bit. The fire escaped, but that's fine. Some of the fire is good, I think, but I'm proud of the way.

All right, all right, all right. Here's something else, Max, I'm going to say, it's do you know the do you know the movie?

What about Bob? Have you ever seen the classic? What about Bob? No, Bill Murray? Bill Murray? Classic Movies, Seventies, Eighties?

Shut the fuck up, Hank, thank you. Here's, here's just the premise. So forget about what about Bob? But it's essentially like, when you walk around and everyone is like, that guy's crazy, that guy's crazy.

And finally, you have something happen where everyone's like, No, maybe he's not crazy. Max Kyle Neptune sucks at coaching basketball. You are not crazy.

He got absolutely worked by shock of smart, the fact that he didn't call a timeout with 30 seconds left in the game when his team. Like, eliminate the fact that maybe you say, hey, let's let the boys play, we have something drawn up.

His team was staring at him, looking for direction. The point guard brought it to where they usually call the timeout and he was like, Nah, just keep playing. That guy is not a good basketball coach. Jay Wright would have won that game.

It was disgusting and shock of smart, I know. It didn't count, but the play that he called, the fact that he had the ball inbounded past half court timeout to a perfectly drawn up play for the buzzer beater, that didn't count. But still, that was the disparity in coaching, so you're not crazy, Max.

Kyle Neptune's got to go, Yeah, I, yeah, I, I watched it all.

I'm not going to say the Cal neptune was looking at the spread, but I will say the way he reacted. When that shot was waved off, when they, they spent like three minutes reviewing the, uh, the last second shot by Marquette. Turns out it was maybe on his pinky. I don't know. I still don't know whether it was on his pinky or not, I think it's.

Salary's going to cost a lot more than whatever bet he must've had, which is why I'm not saying that he bet on it. I'm not saying that, but I'm saying that. He acted like a man who did after they waved that off the look on his face when he found out it was going to overtime, utter disappointment. He did not call a timeout on their last attempt, uh, in regulation to win the game. He did, however, call a timeout in overtime. Down six points with an opportunity to cover the spread. Yeah.

He called that timeout, but he didn't call the first. I'm just saying, I'm not, I'm not saying, but I'm saying, does that make sense? Not going to say it, yes, hank.

And it would have sucked to have to get your hopes up after a win and then watch on Sunday. And they don't announce Villanova's name. We've dominated Providence this year, okay, but I'm still saying we beat them by 25 and then 15, yeah.

That actually does suck. Cause providence was.

Maybe he would, he would. He was sweating on the sidelines. Well, it's classic Duke fans. They were immediately just talking about how awesome.

That's saying, like, I know you're.

Just don't even post the final one, though. That would be a problem, too, I think.

You know, they have cancer and they'll tag the child, yeah, so the child gets all the replies, cause, cause.

For some reason, it's such a hilarious thing that these social media accounts, whether or not they don't post the score or they turn off the replies. Who the fuck cares? Why did? If you run the Duke account, you don't have to read the replies. Yeah, just post it and just go on with yourself.

Yeah, what is the issue with it? They just don't.

We had some crazy finishes. Um, I'm trying to think of what else, what I mean, Kansas lost last night, Kansas down bad. It's weird seeing Kansas and Duke eliminated in the first round of their tournaments because usually Kansas is like, that. Is the bill self invitational most, most years in the Big 12.?

John's Big East Tournament's been very fun, so.

Just two of the best people in the world in one clip. But Rick Pitino said after the game We have to play a different style in March, and it's called racehorse basketball. It takes the pressure.

We also had a very weird.

They look good today. That was crazy, they didn't miss, they hit every single three, they didn't miss.

The badges were on fire. They did the one thing that's going to get me back in. They started hitting threes again because I think in the month of February they were like 15 from three points and today they just hit everything they dub.

They were there was one point, it was 80 to 40 against Scott van Pelts, Maryland Terrapins. And uh, yeah, I'm I'm going to fall back in love.

This? They look bad even when they won against Rutgers, but they managed to pull it off. Um, Maryland, bad team, Wisconsin, good team, Ohio State. good team. Yeah, Ohio State, Ohio State.

They're good, Indiana's starting to reel off some wins. Yep, get some teams peeking at the right time, yep.

Um.

Nine versus five and six.

Just got you get to the biggest tournament.

Hank, What do you think about Duke losing? You didn't really chime in. Are you going to be a Duke fan?

Uh, I mean, Uber flag? Yeah, yeah, they didn't even try to take a three is.

It's made event time it is. Yeah, we. I mean, I love this week so much, and it's just such a blur, it is every so long.

It's so starting and just just.

My, my body feels already.

It's going to be great.

KEENAN I think Keenan Allen's a really good player, all right, so he, he has a hard time staying healthy. You have to say that.

Oh yeah, but when he's playing, he's been consistently one of the better receivers in the league for it feels like 10 years. I can't be upset by people.

Ryan Polls is setting up Caleb Williams. He's going to have the best setup for any.

They're partially. Are they all in your ass? No, I think they're a year away from being all in, I think next year. I think the way that that Ryan pulls is structuring this roster like he didn't go nuts in free agency. The best free, you want it.

You want a nice, cliche best free agent signing?

He's very, very, I know he's injured a lot, but he's very good when he's healthy and he's got to be now. He doesn't have to be number one, he can be number two. To DJ more. To me, the big question is who?

They're going to play some man football and just hand it off, hand it off, hand it off. The charters need to reset everything they do. We're in cap hell. So they lost they, they traded Keenan Allen, they cut Mike Williams, right.

Yeah, Mike Williams.

It's going to be weird seeing the charges next year, but I still think there'll be good. Uh, Patrick Mahomes, Congratulations. you have a good wide receiver again. Got Hollywood Brown, Yeah.

He's going to have like the best year ever, him teaming up with Kedarious, Tony Thunder and Lightning, actually two Lightnings, he's.

That's really it, like, you know, when you finally have made it.

Bottle of ketchup at every.

So it's Kelsey and Mahomes together, that's good, yeah, but that does. That feels like the actually, I should say, the final, final step is the steakhouse failing in, like, three years. Car dealership.

Yeah, yeah, then car dealership, but yeah, congrats to him. So, uh, and then we had Aaron Rogers. Um, found out really quickly that there's a difference between being hated by NFL fans and then hated in the political space. Because almost instantly after the news came out, that was reported first by PFT. Uh, Leroy, Leroy. There was a story that he's a sandy hook truther, which basically, I don't know if it's true or not. But if you are a sandy hook truther and you don't think it happened, you're the biggest scumbag piece of.

He said As I'm on the record saying in the past, what happened in Sandy Hook was an absolute tragedy. I am not, and have never been of the opinion that the events did not take place again. I hope that we learn from this and other tragedies to identify the signs that will allow us to prevent unnecessary loss of life. My thoughts and prayers continue to remain with the families affected, along with the entire Sandy Hook community. Heart emoji and then hashtag hashtag.

Nothing makes you think, right? That does make I like how he included his little signature hashtag, Nothing at the end of this very serious post. Uh, so he's saying that it didn't happen, that he's never said that. It was like a CNN reporter that claimed that he said that to her and that there was another person that he said that to. So I don't, I don't know what the truth is, Aaron says. He didn't say, but one thing Aaron Rogers has not denied yet is that he's running for vice president.

So he went out of his way to make a statement denying that he said this about Sandy. Hook has not denied that he's considering being RFK Juniors running mate. And they're announcing the, uh, the vice president for that ticket. I think next week in Oakland, California, in northern California, which is where Aaron Rogers is from, not from the area. I think he's going to do it, I think he's going to run for vice president.

It's going to be hilarious. I don't know if he's going, is he going to retire, or is he going to try to do both. That's the real.

I thought about this, the ultimate out.

So I have a feeling that, if you like, I have a feeling that Aaron Rogers probably texts. Texted the Jets front on, you know, Joe Douglas and Robert Salah, and been like, Hey, don't worry about it. Like, there's just news. And I love being talked about, I don't know, I mean, he loves being talked about.

We.

I'm just saying, Uh, it would.

It would be like you can't get any worse than this. You finally think you have your guy. After all these years, you go out, you spend like a full calendar year, being like, next year we're going to get Aaron Rogers. You put on a full court press, you, you give into all the Packers trade demands.

You finally get them, you're like, we got our guy. Finally, the Jets have our quarterback, the missing piece. Superbowl. He comes in, you get his wishlist of players, his former teammates, you bring all of them in, you go out of your way.

You pretty much make him the head coach of your franchise and then he gets injured after four snaps, five snaps and then the entire season. He's like, I'm going to come back, I'm going to come back, and you're like, Well, maybe we can do it this year.

Maybe we can do it this year. And then he just strings you along and he never comes back. And then that next offseason, you're like, Well, next year we've got everything in order. This is the year that we went to Superbowl, we have a quarterback.

And then he leaves you to run for vice president and gets 3 of the popular vote. That would be the ultimate Jets quarterback storyline. It's sad to say, and I say this as as a fan of a team that has our own long history of having shitty quarterback news. Like, we have a very sad tradition in Washington of quarterbacks since. I feel like 1991, but this this can't be topped.

If this actually happens, that would be.

Just this conversation. Hey sports fans looking for a new show to binge, check out Mr. Throwback on Peacock. Follow Danny, a down-on-his-luck memorabilia dealer looking for redemption by reuniting with his middle school teammate, NBA legend Steph Curry.

That's right. N.B.A. great Steph Curry goes from the court to the screen in this comedy mockumentary. That's pure gold. It's got basketball style and epic lie that's bound to come out eventually.

You know what they say, ball, don't lie, but sometimes people do. Don't miss Steph Curry in his first scripted TV role, Mr. Throwback, streaming now only on Peacock. Uh, yeah.

Sam Howell gone, Sam Howell gone. I realized. Seahawks, yeah.

He's a Seahawk, I can picture him in a Seahawks uniform, I think that's. It's actually, I think, a good trade for both sides. Because we got a third rounder and a fifth rounder for Sam Howell, we did give up a fourth and a six, I believe, okay.

We just like, moved up in the draft, um, but I think it's a good trade for Seahawks, too. They have a they. He fills their drew lock backup position very nicely. Yes, and, uh, I realized right after we traded him. I just recently purchased a Sam Howell jersey, the most, the most expensive one that you can get.

Why would you do that? because I'm a moron? Yeah, well, you're going to draft a quarterback, I just like it.

So then you start doing the math and and reading the tea leaves. Does that make it more likely that the commanders end up drafting Jaden?

Like, oh yeah, you want them to be comfortable, you have an emotional support quarterback, right? exactly? you have a setup, so yeah, I think Jaden Daniels.

Sure, so I can, I can get. I can talk myself into Jane Daniels very easily. Very, very exciting one thing about Jane Daniels. He has no desire to run for public office yet. Yet. That, you know, is that going to be like a question that, uh, that GM start asking perspective quarterbacks at the combine like, Do you think Sandy Hook?

Delusions of grandeur would be a good way to put it. Yeah, um, I don't think. I don't think he's going to run. I think Sam Howell, that was a good trade, I agree.

Yep, yeah, so good job, Titans.

There's some speculation that Ryan Polls last year made a mistake in trading too early, making move too early. When you can wait till closer to the draft, or maybe a little bit after the draft in some cases, uh, if you're in, like, training camp. And he thinks that Justin Fields value is going to get higher as you get closer to the draft, maybe if you package him with with one of the picks, yeah, maybe, yeah.

Maybe he's playing chess, Yeah, I mean, there's.

That you got to trade all this stuff. There's, there's theories that Ryan Polls and Joe and Justin Fields have put this whole thing together. Like, they sat down and he was like, Hey, first thing you're gonna do is unfollow the bears on Instagram and then we're gonna get everyone.

My words aren't going to work. The golf match, He was at the golf game today and people were freaking out about that. I just got an ace on 17..

Not impressive, did he see it?

What's he going to wear behind the podium? Is he going to show up in a?

Yeah, I'm.

There's a lot of t-shirts at a golf match.

If you're inside the ropes, people got to be.

That's true, this is crazy, this is where you draw the line, this is, this is how you're in. I hit a hole in one row back.

FaCTs Is it you were playing golf? Yeah, that's different, all right.

I'm counting. In the picture with Caleb Williams. There is one, there's three sweatshirts, uh, three t-shirts, and it looks like, actually four t-shirts. I mean, this guy's fitting like no one's dressed up nice at this fucking event. I'm literally looking at a picture right now.

There's three guys in sweatshirts and there's four t-shirts I'm looking at, That's crazy. Come on, Jake, you can sweat pants, come on.

You know what I I think Friday, too, if it was Sunday, maybe you'd have an argument, it's Friday at T c, T c, t P c, whatever.

Wait, I'm pausing, I'm going to count the t-shirts. I got one, I got two, I got three t-shirts.

In this screen grab, there's t-shirts everywhere at this thing. Get out of here you guys, you got you golf guys.

Just too many rules, too many rules. Max Blake is all going to suck if they somehow don't draft Williams. And I spent two months just defending him, just nonstop, yeah.

Some franchises my.

Max played really well.

That's when golf season starts. Uh, okay, anything else before we kick it to Andrew Santino. Awesome interview with him.

Okay, here he is Andrew Santino. All right. we now welcome on a recurring guest. Yeah, baby show is Andrew Santino, standup comedian, actor.

She got a new movie out.

He knows that all right, support, I support, I support them.

We would have not gotten lucky with him either. They're good dudes, man, happy for him. I, you know, I'm a Chicago guy, sports Chicago Sports through and through, but I support those guys cause it's so much fun to a team win sometimes.

Well, it also sucks, it's just it's hard. Yeah, you've also.

It's like, he's not taking your fans, right? What the what do you care? I like? I never understood that. It's like, this is not a competition, right?

That guy's got a separate thing. We have a reserve, the bears and the chiefs have no beef, none. So it just doesn't mean anything to me. So I like watching them succeed. I'm happy for those guys.

Cause they're, they're legit. They've always been cool to me, so I I, I like them. I do. I wish the bears were better.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I wish we got our shit together and could do something, yeah.

Might, might be next year. Yeah, this has been. I think Caleb Williams is the man I do, too. But I don't know if it's just like a crush, just like everything else where I'm like, don't care, I know.

I'll just fall. I'm going to do it again, I did it with fields, I did it with fields, I'm going to do it again.

I did with Mitch. This is just like relationships where you're like, she, she's great dude, all your friends.

I think he's the man. Here's the thing, too, is that, I explained.

It's like getting into a warm bath, right? I know the.

I want.

No, you're not that close of friends. No, I just don't impose. Yeah, it always is tough to.

Um, a week ago we played golf and I don't know, it's like old school with me. It feels like when we first met, right? Like it's the same same guy, which is the only thing I ever cared about. When people become super famous or super successful or something big, happened the same thing with Gillis.

Like, I've known Shane for a minute and I love. I'm so proud for his success. And he's the same cat, right? That's to me. That's all that matters, yeah.

If you're the same guy, you know, you don't compromise the the people that you really still, you know, have relationship with from the past. That's all, that's all that matters, and Travis is the same way. It just I'm not going to be like, Hey, can I come to the game and sit in?

I don't want to do that.

I think like a half week is an appropriate congratulations like before the parade. Yeah, probably, it's probably. yeah, probably.

Yeah, I think three days is probably.

Never, no way, nothing. I don't want to even acknowledge it happened. I'll wait a week and just be like, Hey, sorry man.

No, see, like it's like a my buddy, my buddy runs, a good buddy. Mine runs Steph Curry's entertainment company, um, he runs like their, their television and film division. And he's got two little boys. They're like my little like, you know, my godsons, you know?

And they were like, we got, we're going to go watch Steph play when they come to L.A. Oh, this is going to be great. So we're up in the box and the Warriors lose. And one of the sons was like, Is Steph going to come say hi? And his dad was like, I don't think so.

He's like, Can we go say hi to him? He's like, I don't think so, but yeah, I think we're gonna, I think we'll talk to.

The playoff one this year seemed like it would have been a crazy scene. Yeah, I've been to a few, I just, I went.

It was awesome, They were, like, so stoked about it and I don't know, it was a nice little family moment. But uh, we watched them play the Broncos and then one more game and that's all it. But over the years, I've gone to a few games.

That is the best, though, like having.

Yeah, I just do. I have a hard, steadfast rule, I don't get that thing. The Disney adults.

It's weird, dude, I live in California, I live in southern California when I see all these people that have a yearly passes.

And I'm like, you guys have kids, yeah, and they're like, No, and I'm like.

Who's that one guy, that one dude? There was a columnist that wrote an article about, like, how, um, what was the one that they changed? was it Splash Mountain? They changed it because it had some like racist shit from the south in there. Yeah, so they changed some of the characters. And this guy wrote this long op-ed piece about, like, how it ruined the, uh, the immersive experience that he loves as a Disney adult.

And the picture of the guy was just like big fat, like 350 pound guy wearing Hawaiian shirt. Prototypical like Disney adult. But I do love the fact that, uh, like any, um, any like tent pole cultural phenomenon like Disney World. Or whether it's like a big, massive show, you get people that are the biggest nerds that care about it so much. But they actually end up protecting whatever that piece of art is sure, so like, they're the watchful guardians of Disney world, making sure that it remains pure.

Except my thing is made for grownups.

Yeah, but also.

Yeah, it was embarrassing, I guess that is true.

I think if you get the okay, then it doesn't really matter what anybody says. Obviously, Cleveland didn't want to fight hard enough to keep Wahoo their guy. Yeah, that's on them. That's a reflection of the city.

You got to fight bad sports town. Yeah, dude, what can I say?

But I would constantly be like, when we were doing foreign press, I would talk about my relationship with Bezos and all that stuff. And you can tell the PR people were like, please don't do that, please stop doing that. Yeah, because I was like, I'll call them now.

I'll ring up the B right now, but no, yeah, it's on Prime Video. It's me, John Cena, Zac Efron, Jermaine Fowler, Me Efron and Jermaine Fowler play childhood best friends. And we cause trouble as kids, like we do when you break stuff, light stuff, on fire, ruin stuff.

And then we use an alibi, we make up a name, Ricky Stanicki, that's the name of the movie, and then we've used him as an alibi. Our whole life. To get out of shit, to go to World series, games, to go golf trips, and finally, our wives and girlfriends are like, Where is this guy? yeah.

Who is this? So we have to hire an actor, John Cena, to play this fake character. Oh, I like it.

We shot in Melbourne, Australia, and Pete Fairley directed it. The guy that did dumb and dumber something about Mary. How long were you there for? It was about two months, I think.

Oh, wow. And then my family came out, which was rad because I was like, when are we ever going to be back, right? So I took them down there and we traveled around a little bit and I had a blast.

The movie's fun, man, it's cool.

You know what I mean, I always get self-conscious, that I'm like, I don't want to wear my shit with my head on it. Orange guys, something about orange men, they just it's hard to lead a movie.

It's like, I'm the brightest dude in the room.

Right, also, that's kind of dead.

I don't want, I don't even want that, really.

Because he was like, I picked up, I'm like, Hey man, what's up? he goes. Hey, how old are you? Didn't even say hi, nothing, How old are you? I go. I was 39 at the time.

It was right before my birth, it was actually months ago now, because I said 39, I'll be 40 in October and he goes 40. You could play my son.

And I was like, I think so, and he goes okay, and then he hangs up. There was no. It was straight up just like, I need this information, I don't want to chit chat.

That's all I need to know.

I would probably be able to get away with in Hollywood as leads, you know what I mean? And then you'd have to have the Lovingers and all that stuff be actually attractive people to stare at.

I know you are, you know, just. It would just be like I literally would pick up, and it would just be like, I fucking hate. When cornerbacks, the ball's thrown 10 yards out of out there and they're doing a celebration. And then I'd just be like, that'll be it. He's like, all right, cool.

It's always good to see him, but I don't know if it's. it's always good to see me. Yeah, you don't know, he keeps you on your toes, yeah.

I mean, he, I think he.

I'll, I don't know, I'd lose myself. He's like the definition of dudes will.

And it's fucking rock.

That seems like his rhythm anyway, cause he's not a guy who's going to, like, have a crew of writer. You know what I mean? Like, there's a lot of famous guys that we know that have teams of writers. Or they have a click of dudes that are always kind of around taking notes, writing, and there's nothing wrong, whatever your processes. But I feel like he's, he is such a lone, lone eagle.

He's like, out doing this thing and then that's how he kind of probably put shit together. So about that writing.

When you finish a special, is there a little bit of like, are you like, all right? I was done with that material, or is there a feeling like, Fuck, now? I got to go back and I got to reinvent an entire hour. Yeah, you do, I mean, you have to throw that away.

I mean.

Um, and you slowly piece it together, like, now I'm doing, um, at the end of the month I start Houston and I'm doing just clubs. I'm I'm going to get it. Get away from theaters for six dates, six, seven dates, just to massage this new hour that I've got before I go into theaters in the fall or anything like that. So I'm doing six, just six cities, just trying to feel it out. Totally different markets.

It's like, Houston, Tampa, San Francisco. I just want, like the polar opposite market. I was talking to my agent, I was like, put me in places where I'm not going to get the exact same crowd every time. So these were kind of the best that we came up with. To be like, I want different cultural, socioeconomic.

Yeah, remember when I was that? remember when I put that out, it was done. Yeah, it was so awesome. You want to be done.

It's gotta be in my mind how? Like if an athlete is injured and they're training again. Because they know they're better than what's happening, right? And they're like, Dude, I'm so much better than this, I don't know why I can't put it together, right?

It's just the restrictiveness is there. So then, slowly but surely after time, you're like, Okay, great now I've got 15, great now I've got 25..

Now I've got 30 that I like and you shave down and add and then it's a. It's a great process. I think the beginning is the most painful when you're building, but also when it starts to click. Uh, when they're still new to us, right when they're.

I think it happens kind of organically.

It was like everything happened at once, it's like I was cruising along and then everything happened once and then. So I put away booze, I put away, you know, certain foods for a little while.

It happened out of nowhere, your late Thirties happened, and then you just.

When I play golf, I stretch a lot, I get ready for it. This was dumb, this was me sitting on planes, coming here, and then that was the dumbest thing I've ever done.

But you do get, yeah. Your body starts to slowly tell you this is no good anymore, you don't really get to do this anymore. But you have a good swing, though, it's okay, it's not bad.

I'm up, I've been playing some good golf, I like that. People go sometimes online, they find my handicap and then they just get online and talk, Shit, what's your handicap?

I'm a I'll tell you what I am. So you know, this is when everyone says what their handicap is, get the gin out, give me the app. Yeah, give me the app.

Whenever someone I'm a two two index, that's pretty damn good, two, two is pretty good. Yeah, I'm all right.

But it's like, people talk shit online, they love to talk shit. Oh, that's all. Golf. Golf is the worst talk shit because it's impossible to prove it.

Cause you're like, when am I going to play you guy in West Virginia? Yeah, you come to my club, I'll bet a grand straight up, but you're like, Dude, get out.

I'm not, I'm not playing some lunatic from the internet. We got a guy here, uh, rigs, who four.

That, for me, was a way to justify doing any of that dance, like putting up with their bullshit. So film it have a crew of celebrities who golf take on dickheads that just want to play them and then donate all that money to charity.

Yeah, no, we've talked. I just started talking about it not too long ago, cause I'm doing this. Um, you know, I can talk about it a little bit, but I'm in the middle of negotiating with Live. Uh, to go do start a network with them. Oh, yeah, yeah.

You were out there, we missed you when you were. We won the pro and we won it. Me, Pat Perez, uh, Eugenio, uh, Chikara was our was the two. You do, one pro on nine and the other pro on the back nine. Um, and then, uh, Titus O'Neill, who's, uh, an ex wrestler.

Um, and then I'm drawing a big blank one, the whole thing. Yeah, we won, we got the plaques sent to us not too long ago. I'm pretty proud. It's in my office.

Were you a little bit?

Yes, that's right. A scramble all of us against Brooks Koepka, which was.

So, uh, ironically enough, it takes the heat off of you, it's like it takes the. You. Don't feel pressure. I felt pressure on the first tee, then after that I didn't even think about it. Because the pros are doing their thing and you're really watching the pro, it's almost like you're just getting to hang with them.

And if you did hit a bad shot, nobody gives a shit, no one's thinking about it, you're really just everyone's just watching what the pro is doing.

It so bad that it goes to the side.

That's your fault.

Um, and it is funny how people lean their heads over the over the tee box, they'll lean their heads over the rope, literally. And I was watching this guy do it and I thought, Well, I'm not going to stop him and Homa's not going to hit him. But how annoying is some dummies head right in your sight line? He's leaning over the rope.

That's why they have to put the rope. If they didn't put ropes. Those savages would like hug them while they're swinging, yeah.

We started calling him a pervert on this podcast, cause he's Italian, he's Italian, yeah, and then all of our listeners started calling him a pervert on the golf course.

And then we had a moment where Max was like, Hey, it's not really me like, but my caddy is so sick of it. Like, Can you tell everyone to please stop? So we had to do like we had to make an order, like, if you do it, you're a scumbag.

So it's good to know that it's actually work. No one did it, cause it got really bad for a while. Like he was like he'd be in a big tournament and people be like, what's up?

He looked pretty, pretty good, I mean, he wasn't like a. he wasn't doing any like the the the niceties, he was not in a good mood.

That always messes with my head, where you're like, this poor dude, it's like no attention given to him, he makes good putt, no one cares.

Right, that sucks to me. They're only watching the other dude. Yeah, to me, the funniest guys at a golf tournament are.

Get up, he needs to hit. It's more annoying to me when someone is hogging their space and their phone is right in their fucking face. Yeah, I hate that dude.

Yeah, what are you doing with that footage? what are you going to do, breaking down like the swing?

You're taking it to post online to be like, look.

Right put.

You're with your kid, take a photo, video, that's cool, but there's adult men that are there all day with it, recording all day long. Shame on you.

If you're going to do that, just get a GoPro on your head. That's cool. Seriously, to me, it's cool, way cooler.

If you've got a head and the body, one where you or the camera that's up that looks up at people. So it's like, just their nose is all you see. Yeah, it's all fucked up. I'm cool with if you're trying to do something unique with it, but it's just the same dude on his phone following guys.

Com And now here's more. Andrew Centeno Have you guys done the Apple Vision Pro? I actually have it right here.

I'm going to take it back. Oh, you hate it? I don't necessarily hate it, but I'm going to take it back. Because it's like the most antisocial thing that you can do. So when you wear it, you're like, in your own world, you're on your couch, your family, everybody around you is like, What are you doing? Can't we just watch TV together?

It's very cool, there's some cool stuff that you can do on it. But I also feel like it's probably two years ahead of its time where there's not enough stuff to do. You can watch the same.

So we'd get on at night. I'd tell my wife I'd be like, I'm going to go, I'm going to play golf in the front room. And she'd be like, Oh God, exactly.

Yeah, so she would take videos of me like an idiot, yelling and laughing into my oculus, playing golf with those guys. But after that wore out, I was over it fast. Yeah, I was like, Ah, dude, I don't know anymore.

It's just it's a little like, distract, it's just I don't need it. Yeah, I got over it, there's nothing.

So I got one of the videos, the 3D videos or whatever, the all immersive and amazing. Then the second or third time completely over it, right, completely, and no. Then you start to get really like, picky about the details.

You're like, that that looks so stupid. She looks like her shoulder looks massive because the angles are so weird. Yeah, so you get over it. It just doesn't, I don't know.

And then?

Yeah, I just wanted to see my form, dude, you got to get shallow on that stroke.

How much are they? I don't even know, I don't I. They were expensive as shit. uh, there were more than they should be. Every.

They make them in golf shoes, these ones, and I love the ones that's my favorite shoe to walk in. Um, and I was like, Oh, well, I want to get the um. I want to get the the regular ones. That aren't the golf shoes, and then so I saw the ones that I have that aren't golf shoes, they're street shoes. And then the guy was like, Yo, you know, what's really dope is these black ones.

And he was chatting with me and he was a fan and he was cool. So I kind of got, you know, I got, like, enamored with, uh, the conversation. And then he took me up to the front desk and I think they were like, I don't even know, 700 bucks or.

It's like, Oh, it's reverted right back to, like, junior High, where it's like, Well, if you don't jump, I mean, we're all jumping, but if you don't jump, it's not a big deal. Yeah, I don't jump, I'm a bitch.

Do I have to jump?

That happened to me with pillows when I was in New York. I was buying pillows, right? And I get up to the cashier and she scans them and they were like, $250 pillows. And I was just like, Fuck, I'm going to look like such an asshole if I just say no. These pillows are too expensive to take.

So I was like, Yeah, sure, I'll buy $500 worth of pillows on a whim, and then the pillows sucked. And then I had to live with them for like, five years. Because they're.

They've boosted it up to make you feel like they might be special, like these are no special than the regular Jordan One. Lows. It's the same shoe. Yeah, there's literally no different.

Yeah, it's just Travis Scott put his name on it. And they're a little cooler looking, so suckers. Oh, I'll tell you, actually, I'd tell you some dumb shit I did when I was back here. And we play the Chicago Theater.

Um, uh, I, I wanted to take my wife and get her, uh, like a like, a purse or a bag, she wanted this color of a bag. And so we went down, like, on Michigan Avenue. And just as a surprise, I was like, I, there's a, I think, a color bag that you like at Gucci, and she was like, Really, seriously.

And I was like, Yeah, and she's like, let's, I'm not buying a Gucci purse. I was like, it's a little bag. It's not like a crazy, it's a time.

This is the color you like, and we go in there. Same shit. This is how much of a loser I am. There's this like, really like, smooth, suave gay dude who's just like, you know? He was like, Oh, I love your hair.

Like, look at the color, the color goes good against this. And he's showing me Gucci shirts and jackets and I'm like, Oh man, that's not. I don't really. I'm good on all that, I just want to get into the purse.

Then, sure enough, 20 minutes goes by. He's got me buying a Gucci shirt jacket. I've never owned anything by them. I bought this thing, I didn't look at the. I gave him the card.

We were chatting, I didn't look at the receipt and how much it costs. We get back to the hotel immediately to my wife, I go, I'm going back tomorrow and returning.

But here's how much of a pussy I am. I wouldn't go back to the Michigan Avenue store, I went all the way out to Schomburg. I'm a bitch, I'm a bitch.

I went to Schomburg to return it because I felt so much weird guilt that I was like, he'll see me, he'll think I'm a loser. But I had no intention on buying it, I got like fooled, I got like bullied into buying it.

And immediately when I saw it, I think it was like five grand or something. I don't even know. But I literally was like nervous and I felt so uncomfortable. I was like, I got to buy it. He's like, almost making you buy.

He's like, putting on my shoulders, he's like, Oh my God, look at the way your shoulders sit in this. And I was like, I bought the jacket. Then, of course, I returned it to Schomburg, I felt so, but the relief I felt when I returned it.

Oh yeah, oh. It felt so good seeing it come off my credit card. I was panicking. I was like, I'm never.

I'm I bought them on accident and I'm 40 years old. I feel like a fucking moron. Stay young. I don't do much, though, in that regard.

I want all the curb shit, you need it. Yeah, it's so sick. No, I did a couple of seasons ago.

The new one's great I was. I've watched it on the plane, on the way to.

A happy man. I made him break in the in the in the room and then on set when we did it in the room. You know, the audition is, um, you just. He gives you a character and they give you a little baby character breakdown. It's probably like, I don't know, four or five sentences, and then you take from that enough to make your own improv, your own world.

And I improv the world I was originally going to have the role of the Um. It's the episode where the guy has a dog named Adolf. I don't know if you've seen that, the German Uh shepherd named Adolf. And then as soon as I read the character, he loved it. And then he goes, Uh, it's not, it's not going to work.

And I was like, Really, I thought we were having, I'm like, I made, he was. We were laughing. He goes, Yeah, yeah, now do you? You don't look? uh, you don't look, you don't look the part at all, it's the ginger.

Yeah, he's like, you don't look like a Nazi kind of guy. He's like, I wanted to make him a little bit look with that like blonde hair thing. He's like, it's just not going to work.

The ginger thing isn't going to play. And I was bummed and then he was like, No, no, no, we're going to get something else. So then he made me go back in the hallway and read for, Uh, the plumber who make, who fixes the toilet at Latte, you know, Latte, Larry's?

And I came back in after like 15 minutes and we just riffed. And he broke a few times and it, just like my heart grew four times. It was like a comedy. On the way home, I I vividly remember pulling out of his studio, driving. And I call my wife. And I was like, I've only done this, maybe twice to her. I've been like, I'm so sure that I got this.

If I don't, I have, I have no idea about my career because it went so well. He was like we were humming. That'd be like, I don't know how he wouldn't want to give this to me. There was nothing there.
