• 2:14
  Speaker 2: to hear about my golf stats.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: They're not that excited.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: But I played the best round of golf at our

• 2:28
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: We had a great trip recently. Florida is kind of
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: having a moment.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Are you from here originally?
• 2:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah, born and raised.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: From Sarasota.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: Bradenton, Sarasota area, yeah. Big shout out.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: For those that don't know that are watching or listening
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: to the pod, you come from an athletic family, to
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: say the least. Both your parents were pro athletes. Your sister.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: And your brother.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: All professional athletes.
• 2:51
  Speaker 6: And big Jonas Brothers fans.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: That's great to hear.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: Huge.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: We love that.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Now, my question for you to start is, was it
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: a super competitive household?
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Well, my sister was five years older, so she was
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: kind of out of the household playing professional golf before
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: I was a teenager. And then my brother and I
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: are two years apart, so Monopoly was always very heated.
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: Things were flying.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Houses were flying. We had to take a Monopoly break.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Thanksgiving Monopolies.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Nick was just like a tyrant. He knew where to go,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: and then I would look up, and he'd be like,
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: That'll be $ 700. I'm like, we just started the game.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: It's like, that's not how we play. Yeah, no, but
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: it was, it was competitive, but we played different sports.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: So it was still like super friendly. Yeah.
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: He was my best friend growing up.
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: And then as I got older and I got on tour,
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: my sister and I became inseparable and she is my
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: best friend.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: So great.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Awesome.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: So nice. When did you take to golf initially?
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: So I started when I was two, when I started walking.
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: So really young.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that'll do it. That explains why we're not so good.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: And then I started like transitioning more into like the competitiveness.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: And when I was nine, there's a tour called AJJ's
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: American Junior Golf Association. So you can start playing those
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: when you're 12. And those give you a chance to
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: kind of get seen by. recruited by college coaches. So
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: you play those until you're 18. And then I took
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: the route of playing professional golf and I turned pro,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: finished my senior year on the road and, uh, have
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: been doing that ever since.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: When's more importantly, when was the first time you beat
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: your older sister?
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: In a round was my first tournament.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah. That's great. I'm sure that went over really well.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: I have the perfect sound for that.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah. Yeah.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Did you talk that? No, I didn't like that. That's nice.
• 4:45
  Speaker 6: But we used to play for a handbag a year.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: So whoever finished, I think we did that for the
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: first three years, whoever finished higher on the money list,
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: the loser had to buy the winner a handbag of
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: her choice.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: We should do that, but with watches. I'm not doing that.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: I'll take a handbag. What was the bag?
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: Year one.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: One year it was the first year she won and
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: it was a Louis Vuitton duffel bag.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Fantastic.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: Nice.
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: Love it.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: It's good.
• 5:08
  Speaker 6: I know.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Well, We've been playing golf for many years. Not since
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: we were two. Not since we were two. We love it.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: The only thing we all have in common is that
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: we're all girl dads. And Kevin's oldest daughter is getting
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: really into golf. She loves it.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Really?
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: My wife, Priyanka, and I, we have a nearly five-year-old,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: and we're like, we've got to get her on skis
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: and playing golf. I have shown your clips to her
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: as an inspiration to get her involved. Same. Don't want
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: to get too cheesy or sappy, but as girl dads,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: it means so much to us that you're representing the sport.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: And this great country of the United States of America
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: with your gold medal win. It means so much. And
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I think it, you know, I'm sure you hear this
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: all the time from, from dads and moms about their,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: their girls, but hats off to you. And when we
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: saw that you wanted to come to the pod and
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: be on, you know, come to the show, we were
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: thrilled because it goes deeper than golf for us. And
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: with that being said, she's five almost. what should be
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: the first thing we get into with the swing to
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: really get her hooked?
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: It's always about the fundamentals. Even I revert back to
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: the fundamentals.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: So knowing how you grip, knowing your weight distribution, like
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: the small things, but also like at that age, you
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: want to make it fun.
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: You want to play a lot of games.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: And I had a great coach where we were like
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: hitting flop shots and, Over trees like she would do
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: like five minutes of technique work and then the rest
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: of it kind of was just to play games and
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: to really like fall in love.
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: With the game and to kind of fuel my competitiveness.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: That's awesome.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah. No, I had great coaches growing up, but I
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: would say just like make it fun because at that age.
• 6:42
  Speaker 6: If they're not having fun, it's the last thing that
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: they want to be doing.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Right, it's a long day if you don't enjoy it.
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: My daughter is 12, going to be 13 this year,
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: and she's just fully in.
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: She got her first set of PXGs for Christmas last year.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: It was a big deal.
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: And seeing her ask me, can I please have my
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: lessons three times a week this year instead.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Of just two? I was like, whatever you want.
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: You're like, this is what dreams are made of.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like, is this real life? That's funny.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: It's pretty great. That's awesome.
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: We need to get her some TaylorMade clothes.
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: Okay. TaylorMade.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: TaylorMade.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're sponsored by TaylorMade, obviously. Yeah. And there's some
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: great videos of you playing with Rory and Tiger. What
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: was that day like? And I love the clip of
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: you two going back to when you first got to
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: meet Tiger.
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: Oh, my gosh.
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: Still turned red when I see that.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, still kind of a little fangirl moment, as I
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: did when I first met Rory. Tiger and Freddie Couples
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: on the same day, which is a pretty big day
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: for me. Having now met all your heroes, I'm sure,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: or maybe there's a few.
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: Well, I still need to meet Roger Federer, that would be.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Okay. That's on the list.
• 7:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it is, definitely.
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: Roger.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: I'm going to make that happen if you're watching, Roger. Yeah.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: He may be.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: We don't know.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But having met your heroes and probably having had
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: the chance to play with some of them, What have
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: those experiences been like? Just as a fan of the game,
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: I'm sure, too, and not just a player.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, the experiences that I've had at those
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: TaylorMade shoots have been unbelievable. I mean, you know, they
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: we call it like the end of the year super shoot.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: So all their ambassadors come in, you know, all those
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: like videos, those short videos that you see throughout the
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: entire year.
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: That's all filmed over two days. Just switching out.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: So cool. Where do they usually shoot?
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: Those kind of goes like all over West Palm Jupiter area.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: So we got a clip here.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: These are highlights. Because why not? I love it. Are
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: you guys one of those? Hold on. Can we pause
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: it for a second? Did they actually count that?
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: No.
• 8:40
  Speaker 6: If your intention is not to hit it, then you can.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Read to it. Right, but if you were, like, ready
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: to go and that happens.
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, if correct, then it counts as one.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: But it wouldn't be because you're not even making, like,
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: a full swing. Like, if you were at the top
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: of your swing and you kind of bump it forward,
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: that would be considered you wanting to hit it.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: It's a golf move, essentially. I know this is, like,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: the golden ticket of golf.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: But, like, when you're in a situation where you're like,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: all right, I've got thousands of people watching me hit
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: off the first hole here, the first tee.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Like for you, like what locks you in mentally?
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Because I think like in our, in our golf world,
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: it's three people and we're still like, they're like, Oh
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: my God, it's just happening.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: But that's what I would be doing on that stage.
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: Let's be honest.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: So for you, what, what locks you in?
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: Like, I guess my routine, like, you know, some people
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: call it superstition, but like a routine, it's like always
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: something that you fall back on.
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: It's the same over and over and over again.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: But when you get a little nervous and they're, they're
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: excitement jitters, it's not like, nervousness where it's like a
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: bad nervousness, but they're like excited to go again, being
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: on that first tee if it's.
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: For a major. And like, for me, it's my routine.
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: I fall back on it.
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: I have my practice swing. I lock into my target,
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: talk to my caddy and then I go. Right.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: So this clip, so these are all like highlight clips of,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: how amazing you are obviously but like watching this and
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: I've seen it before it's just your consistency at the
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: ball your move at the ball seems to be so
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: It's insane. Consistent. I mean, there's no other way to
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: put it. Does it feel that way every time you
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: get up there or is it really something you have
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: to lock into mentally?
• 10:14
  Speaker 6: Oh, my God.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Some days it feels so bad. Like some days I'm
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: looking back at my caddy. I'm hitting it right. I'm
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: hitting it left. My body's not moving properly. I mean,
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: you know, when you travel so much, like you wake
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: up and there's days where you just feel like trash.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: You just didn't sleep well.
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: The flight was longer than expected. I travel with a
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: pillow now. I'm at that age. Oh, yeah? That's my
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: golden ticket right there.
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I always travel with a pillow.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah. If I don't have my pillow, I'm done. Okay.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about travel. What's your travel must-haves?
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: There's a couple. I mean, a pillow for sure.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: You travel with a pillow. Yeah, definitely. Changed my life.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: That's his move, too. Yeah.
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: I mean, I would say my facial stuff, too, like
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: my cream.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Skincare.
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: That's a must-have skincare for sure.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Sunscreen.
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: I overpack. I'm an overpacker. I don't know about you guys.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: We are overpackers. Yeah, we're overpackers. Pretty much. We have
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: an entire room here.
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: It's called Boardrope, and it's got all of our clothes,
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: and that we don't bring on stage.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Just clothes for life. These are things we're supposed to
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: keep private. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: Well, it just depends on what you're feeling that day.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: You just don't know. Exactly.
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: Like maybe you wake up and you're like, ooh, I
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: want to feel a little funkier. So you want to
• 11:20
  Speaker 6: put on a funky shirt.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. Now, I'm curious.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Do you still go and play for fun or do
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: you find it always practice is still even with practice?
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Are you able to enjoy it or is it like, OK,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: I got to lock in?
• 11:30
  Speaker 6: I like to play alone. I'm a loner out there.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: I just like when I'm there, when I'm out on
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: the golf course, like I have to give it 100%.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: And I'm always, like, practicing. But I'm having fun. Like, I'll, like,
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: skip off the tee. Like, I'm there, like, with my coach, obviously.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: But I'm like, I hit a good shot.
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: And I'm like, oh, my God, that was so good. Like,
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: I'm still, like, a little girl.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: When I'm at golf.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: And I tell myself all the time, when I'm not
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: like that, then I think it's time to kind of
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: reassess what I'm doing. But right now, like, I'm feeling
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: the jitters on the first tee. I want to feel that.
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: And I'm also.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: Excited when I'm going out to practice like I'm completely
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: burnt out when I'm like, okay, I need to go
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: practice I don't want to go but I need to
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: go sure.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right. I'm speaking of jitters in the first tee
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: I did want to mention this I had the chance
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: to play Augusta few years back I did a commercial
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: shoot with Jordan Spieth for AT & T and then
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: one of the things that was part of the other
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: like and we have a slot for you to play
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Monday after the tournament and Joe and I would all
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: the pins are in the same place same place.
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Oh god, I And I got to the first tee
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: and I swear to God, I thought I was having
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: a heart attack. And everyone was like, why? You play
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: all the time and you weren't playing for money or
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: like in a tournament. And I just said that the
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: history of it, you could just feel it when you're
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: playing there. And, um, and also it's because I think
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: to your point, like we, we feel that way about
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: what we do. Like we still get butterflies in our
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: stomach and hear the crowd. You're like, okay, performance is
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: where you lock into your routine on tour. And it
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: is like, this is my job and I'm approaching it
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: this way. But if you don't feel that thing within
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: you when you play a new song or, you know,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: even times where we're like, we've been sick and we
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: have to get up there and still try to do
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: our best. Um, when you're in those moments, what is,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: what is the thing that draws you back? Is it
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: family and friends? Uh, if I may say you, you
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: got engaged recently. Congratulations. Congrats. Um, is that the thing
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: that grounds you back to, to kind of real life
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: to pull you back and make you your best?
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, definitely.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: I think also like going home and not having any distractions,
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: like going home and like it being like I'm going
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: to go. I'll have one day off to kind of
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: reset my body. And then after it's like gym, golf, gym, golf, gym, golf.
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: But that's what excites me.
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: I don't know. Some people like don't want that.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: But that's what like my batteries just get reenergized that way.
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: Like I'm I'm just I guess athletes are crazy. Some
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: people are crazy. The people that are the most passionate about.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: What they do.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: In a sense are a little crazy about what they do,
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: but I feel like they give it their all for
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: the time that they do it.
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: I think we kind of feel that way more speaking
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: for myself, but like when we're on tour, when we
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: get into that rhythm and we're doing these shows, you know,
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: back to back, sometimes three, sometimes four nights a week
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: in a row as well. It's, it's a, it can
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: be a grind, but at the same time getting out there,
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: it's just like, I cannot believe someone let us do this.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: This is my life. This is insane. I feel like
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: hobbies are really important outside of the world. totally. Um,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: for us, that's, And golf and ping pong and whatever else.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Do you have a hobby?
• 14:26
  Speaker 6: I like going to the gym. I like going out
• 14:28
  Speaker 6: on the boat. I like hanging out with my family.
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: Stuff like I don't get to do because I'm by
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: myself on tour all the time.
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: I'm jealous.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: Like you guys, when you tour, like you guys are
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: all kind of together. I'm sure you guys are sick
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: of each other after the days.
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: We've learned to let each other not have to be,
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: we don't have to be with each other.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: All day long.
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: But I'm by myself. Like I, I travel by myself.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: I lug my luggage by myself. When I'm on the
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: golf course, I have my team, my physio and my caddy.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: But then when we're not on the golf course, I'm
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: by myself. Yeah. Right. And so like when I'm home,
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: I want to see like my people. And that's what
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: kind of, helps me kind of bring me back to reality.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: How do you decompress?
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: Because after we do a show, it takes us hours
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: to kind of come down from it, whether it's food
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: and hanging out together or whatever and decompressing from the show.
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: But what do you do after winning everything all the time?
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: Well, the post-win meal is always Five Guy Burgers.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, fantastic choice. What's your order?
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: I like mustard, ketchup, mushrooms, and that's it.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: I love it. I love that you closed your eyes
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: for that because you're visualizing.
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: I'm visualizing the bite.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Well, we actually have a mustard.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: No.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: We do have a lot of bread around, but that
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: was for a game earlier. Sorry. That's great.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: And then I guess, okay, so then also for the times,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: which doesn't happen often, that maybe you didn't perform your best.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: What's the decompress for that?
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: It is always to put the clubs away for a
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: little bit if I have the time. If I only
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: have a week, it's back to grind mode. And thankfully,
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: I've been with my caddy for... Close to nine years.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: What was your caddy's name? Jason. All right. Shout out, Jason.
• 16:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: Jason.
• 16:10
  Speaker 6: He's going to love that. But he like he's always
• 16:13
  Speaker 6: in my corner.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: That's I think the best thing about my career that
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: I love so much is my team. Yeah, I'm winning
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: and I'm hitting the shots, but there's so much going
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: on behind the scenes and like I wouldn't be where
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: I am without them.
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: So I always make sure that they.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: There's a guy.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: Great shades.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: He was crying so much. He was like giving an
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: interview to someone. And I still to this day refuse
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: to watch that interview because he was like I he
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: was sobbing during it. But that's like how much like
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: our life together like means to him to his wife
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: played on tour. I've played a playoff against her and
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: I remember I love his wife.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah I was like I know dude I'm sorry bruh
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: I promise you I'm giving you good reads right.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Now yeah I love Caro his wife but when we
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: were walking on to the first tee of the playoff
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: I was like remember what team you're on wow.
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: I love it lock in the ultimate test you've won
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: a lot of trophies won a lot of medals and
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: and uh i gotta ask where where do you keep
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: it in the house are they on one shelf and
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: scattered around what's the vibe.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: They're scattered in my office i've i have like floating
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: shelves i have like a shelf dedicated to the olympics
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: so i have like a plaque that actually Jason got me.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: I have like the lanyard with my badge and my,
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: all the stuff that I got throughout the week. And
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: then I have like a major one and then.
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: They're like kind of all scattered all over the office.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: I have that too, but it's a people that have
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: won all those things and not my memorabilia room.
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: That's cool.
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Joe also is into memorabilia and collects Pokemon cards. That's
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: his kind of like decompress hobby. Talk about golf. We've
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: heard that you're super into Legos. Is that accurate?
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: Yeah, pretty.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 18:03
  Speaker 6: I started last year.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: It's so fun.
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: Another way to decompress for sure.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: It really is.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: You kind of like disconnect.
• 18:10
  Speaker 5: I love that there's vending machines now at the airports
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: and there's Lego vending machines.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: And you can take them. I'd love to see somebody
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: try to build a Lego on a flight though. I
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: did it with Valentina last time. On a flight?
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: But you're losing the pieces.
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: They're just falling all over the place. No turbulence.
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: But it was so fun.
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: We just built a Lego while we were flying home together.
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: I was like, this is incredible.
• 18:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's so funny. Like fans giving me Legos.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: But at the end of the week and I'm like,
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: I don't know if I can fit these in my suitcase.
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: Like I'll get like four at a time. And I'm like,
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: it's Sunday. I wish you guys gave it to me
• 18:41
  Speaker 6: on Monday.
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: That is funny because, you know, there have been times
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: where we've mentioned something in an interview or on the
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: podcast about something we're really into. And then we just.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: get sort of inundated with those things.
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: And guess what? We've done that to you today. We've
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: done it today. There's something here for you.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: No way.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: It's a bit of a game, though. It's a bit
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: of a game. We'll find a bag for you to
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: put it in. And guess what? It is also a Sunday.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: Oh. Yeah. It's fine.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: I'm going home. If you're down to play, we're going
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: to try this game out. We historically are not very
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: good at games on this podcast, but we always try.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: That's kind of the beauty of it. Our producer has
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: some rapid fire questions. Ooh, let's go. They're Lego related.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: No.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: No, they're just life. We're just doing Legos while we
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: do this? Oh, I get to do it too? That's
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: so fun. The drink cart comes around.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: What's your go-to golfing drink?
• 19:30
  Speaker 6: Oh.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Go-to golfing drink. I'm sure you don't drink water. Yeah, electrolytes.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: But on just a friendly round where you're not competing,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: would you ever?
• 19:39
  Speaker 6: I've never had an alcoholic beverage on a golf course.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: I would never recommend that. I'll tell you what. Neither
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: have we. Yep. Never heard of it. So electrolytes. that's
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: why I'm bad at golf. Got it.
• 19:54
  Speaker 6: You got to fuel the body, guys.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, fuel it. Yes, I guess I need more of it.
• 19:58
  Speaker 6: I've also never had an alcoholic beverage before a competitive round.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: That's also smart. That's great.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: Not like before, like let's say I'm teeing off at
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: 1 p.m. and I'm having a beverage at 11, but I'm.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: At the night before. It's like a pilot wouldn't have
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: a drink the night before. That's great. That's smart. Let's
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: hope not.
• 20:16
  Speaker 6: Where's the directions?
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: This is complicated.
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: This is a real challenge for you.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: What's the most embarrassing thing you've ever done on a
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: golf course? Oh, that's for all of us. Oh, easy, actually.
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: I never slam my clubs.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: And the first year I started playing, Jason started caddying
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: for me. I took the butt end of the club,
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: so I gripped it by the head of the club,
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: and I slammed it into the ground right in front
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: of him, and it ricocheted back and hit me into
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: the mouth, and I had.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: A bloody lip. I thought I knocked out my teeth.
• 20:46
  Speaker 6: And he was like, I thought if I laughed... I
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: would get fired right there.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, my gosh. Was that the one and last time
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: you've done it? Yeah.
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Correct. That would be probably the most embarrassing thing because
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: it just... I mean, that's karma right there.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right?
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: What about y'all? I want to hear this.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: The most embarrassing thing? Yeah.
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: Oh, actually, we were members of a club in Texas,
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: and me and Nick were playing a round of golf,
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: and I backed up and forgot that there was a
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: sand trap behind us.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: What?
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: But he was flooring it for some reason.
• 21:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: And we went very quickly over the edge, over the back,
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: and into the sand trap.
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: But we were both okay, and the cart was okay.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: And it was okay. And guess what? And we have
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: to say that for legal reasons. And guess what? No
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: one knew the wiser, and we got that cart out
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: of there and kept on going.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: Did you rake the bunker?
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: We raked that bunker.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: Nice.
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: Never.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: I'm proud.
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: Because it became very, very big news in the community
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: the next day, though, because some other kids stole a
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: golf cart and put it in the lake. And so
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: our little bunker issue was not a problem.
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: I love that.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: I'm, like, highly distracted now that we have Legos. Nick's
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: opening number two already. Well, of course not.
• 22:04
  Speaker 6: Which celebrity would you most want in your foursome?
• 22:06
  Speaker 5: Oh, wow.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: Bill Murray. I think he seems like a good hang
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: on the course, I should say. Probably in real life, too.
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: Hmm.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: Do we get to fill out the whole foursome? Yeah,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: why not? Okay, so I'd love to play with you,
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: Nellie Korda. Yeah, that'd be amazing. My wife also was
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: very excited about this, and she's like, I'd love to
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: play with Nellie Korda if we get the chance. Let's
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: make this happen. And then, I feel like we gotta
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: throw somebody in there that's just gonna make us laugh
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: the whole time. It's not gonna be Joe. It's not
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: gonna be me. It's not gonna be Kevin.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: Uh....
• 22:45
  Speaker 6: Adam Sandler?
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: Adam Sandler's a great pick. That's a great answer. Adam,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: let's do it. And he's a great golfer.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he is.
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm speaking to you about being great golfers. You know,
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: within reason, a good golfer.
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: I met him during the movie that we filmed for.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: You were in Happy Gilmore.
• 23:05
  Speaker 6: Happy Gilmore.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: Thank you. So awesome.
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: I'm like dialed into Legos right now.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: It does take over your brain. It's pretty great.
• 23:13
  Speaker 6: And he was so nice. Oh, my gosh.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: He's so sweet. He's so great.
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: He accidentally chatted me with a group of people that
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: I think he thought he was Kevin James. And it
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: was Kevin James, not Kevin Jonas. That's great. That's tough.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: And it was the picture of a still from a
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: movie that he's working on. And he goes, this is
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: the poster. And I replied, looks awesome. Wish I was
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: in it. That's hilarious. That's just me telling everyone I
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: got cool famous friends, guys. Yeah, name drop much. If
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: you could break one rule of golf without anyone knowing,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: what would it be?
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: Without anyone knowing. Hitting from a divot when you're in
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: the middle of the fairway.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what are we doing about that?
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: I know, it's tough. But you know what?
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: I always say, like, it's come up in conversation a
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: couple times with my friends.
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: There is an art to hitting out of a divot
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: from a fairway.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: What is it?
• 24:06
  Speaker 6: You put it more back in your stance.
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: You grip a little bit more on like a little
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: bit more down on the club because in a way
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: like it's kind of like a bunker shot. So you're
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: trying to hit the ball first and you're just a
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: lot steeper.
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: So there is an art.
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: Cool.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: So I can totally do that without thinking about it
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, exactly. We could just do what Kevin
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: does and just move it. Yeah. Just move it. Kidding.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: All right, let's pause on the Legos for now because
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: we have more fun questions to ask and some questions
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: from some of our Hey Jonas listeners.
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: Things people want to know.
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Oh, there's a video. First up. First up. I know
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: this person. This is Kev's daughter, Alina.
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: Hi, Nellie.
• 24:46
  Speaker 6: As an up-and-coming golfer, what do you think I should
• 24:48
  Speaker 6: focus on most?
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: I would say what she should focus on, dad, would
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: be probably short game. Yeah. A lot of short game.
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: There's a drill that I love doing when I was younger.
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: It's called the six ball drill.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: It's hard.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: So you pick like a easy, medium and hard and
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: you have to make six up and downs.
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: In a row.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: And if you don't, then you can't move on to
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: the next one or you can't leave. I've been there
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: for like two hours, three hours from one spot because
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: I did not make six up and downs in a row.
• 25:23
  Speaker 6: So like a bunker shot, you have to actually make
• 25:25
  Speaker 6: the putt too.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: That's awesome.
• 25:27
  Speaker 6: It's challenging. Very tough.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: That's awesome. But on that.
• 25:30
  Speaker 6: Sixth putt, you're feeling pressure.
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 25:33
  Speaker 6: So then you can kind of like, that's what you
• 25:36
  Speaker 6: feel out on the golf course. So it's kind of
• 25:37
  Speaker 6: like training both.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: I love that. It's really great. I think that could
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: be just thrown in with any golfer fan. Thank you.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: She will greatly appreciate that. Oh, we got to do
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: the bowl question.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: One more.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Bowl question.
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: So bowl questions are just random questions. Okay. It has
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: nothing to do with anything. We didn't write them. Yeah.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: No pressure.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: Oops.
• 25:54
  Speaker 6: Do you trust the expiration date or your nose?
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: Well, I trust my nose when it comes to milk.
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: But expiration date, usually on everything else.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Milk will tell you. You can tell. You just
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: kind of know. All right. Thank you again for coming.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much. Hope you enjoy the show tonight. Yes, congrats.
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: Anything at all.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: Talk to Kevin. Just kidding. Our doors are open. Our
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: doors are open. And we hope you guys have the
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: best time tonight. And thank you for being here. Seriously, guys.
