  Speaker 1: Victor Hovlin going to join us promoting the Travelers Championship
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: coming up this weekend. Looking forward to speaking to him.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: He has been all over Norway soccer. He is a
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: big heavy metal fan and so I'm excited.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Is he into heavy metal?
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: I used to be. I used to be.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: I have a one.
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: It's a very it's a core memory from a heavy
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: metal concert that I never actually walked into. Okay, So
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: it was me and my older sister and she was
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: two years older than me, and so she was like
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: my hero or anything she liked.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: I liked it.
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: She was a huge Poison fan, like huge Poison. So
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: we got tickets. I think I'm in seventh grade, So
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: what's that eleven twelfth there and I'm probably thirteen years old.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: She's fifteen, and I'm.
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: In charge of holding the tickets, right, So my uncle drops,
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: which is a big responsibility, it is, yeah, and this
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: is so if I'm seventh grade, this is like nineteen
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: ninety maybe yes.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: And let me explain to the audience and the tailor.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: This was a time where you had physical tickets, right,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: so there was pressure with not losing the tickets.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: The tickets weren't on your phone.
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: If you lost them, you lost your ticket, your tickets,
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: and I didn't know.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: So I'm I'm you know, sitting out there.
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: We get there way before like the crowd gets there.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: I think we get dropped off, like two hours before
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: the concert starts, with a couple of kids.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: We don't know what we're doing.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: And so I put the tickets. And this is very rare. Okay,
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: I live in South Florida. As a child, I don't
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: normally wear a jacket with a pocket in the lining, right, Okay.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: It was a member's only jacket, wasn't it.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: No, No, it was my uncle's jacket. I want to say.
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: I feel like and I felt special because it's like
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: I got a pocket in there. I was like, you
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: know what, this is where the tickets are going inside
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: the most secure pocket I could have on my body.
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: And so me and my sister we just killed time
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: for ninety minutes, just scadaddled around, didn't do anything, sat
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: on the stairs, didn't run into crowds or anything.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: Okay, yep, STU.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: The gates open, we see people running up there, and
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: we're just like, all right, time to go. I reach
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: into that stupid pocket. Yes, the tickets are not there. Wow,
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: the tickets were gone. I was like, what's that? That's
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: my sister's name, as like, I don't did I give
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: you the tickets? And you could see she's furious already.
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: She's like, why did you hold on to the tickets?
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Wait? So you started to blame her.
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: I wanted to.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: Ask her in a way that made it not so
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: obvious that they weren't where I just put them.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Right well, asking her if she has the tickets is
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: a fairly obvious way of any and you don't have them.
• 2:41
  Speaker 6: Yes, So are you the person that shouldn't have been
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: holding the tickets? Because like, I've got three brothers, and
• 2:49
  Speaker 6: we all know that if you give them to one brother,
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: they're you're never seeing them again.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: I think Isy's larger point is he put them in
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: what he thought was a very secure pocket, a very
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: secure place, and then went to that place to get
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: them and they weren't there.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: But beyond that, you're right, Mikey, You're correct, though I
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: am No, I'm the opposite of that. I am the
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: person you give the tickets to because I will do
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: everything in my power to make sure that they're there
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: at the end. Like I am the reliable one, okay,
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: And so I'm like, they're not in my pocket.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: And then she's like, what do you mean?
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: And so I took off the jacket because it wasn't mine,
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: like I said, I think it was my uncle's or something.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: And I took off the jacket and I just started,
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: you know, doing that thing where you like feel all
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: the way through it to make sure it didn't go
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: through like in the lining of the jacket or somewhere.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: And I'm like, what did I do a cartwheel? And
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: how did this come? And so we're just like we're
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: walking around, we're looking on the ground, and she's just
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: mother f and me like you wouldn't believe, and it's
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: just like.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: And it was.
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: Honestly, I think poison or Brett Michaels might have been
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: the greatest thing in her life at the moment, and
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: she was about to get to see him from a
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: decent distance and I shouldn't even want to, right, I
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: was the reason why she didn't get in.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: This would be like carrying two tickets to the NBA Finals,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Nicks tickets to the NBA Finals and Taylor is going
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: with you.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, one thousand percent, Yes.
• 4:10
  Speaker 7: The only poison I recognize is Bell BIV devout saw
• 4:14
  Speaker 7: that poison.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: But anyway, long story short, we called my uncle. He
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: came back to pick us up. He said what happened?
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: And I said, I don't know. It's your damn jacket
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: that lost us these tickets, right. I didn't really say that.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: In my head, I wanted to say that. And my
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: sister didn't talk to me for three full weeks.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Oh wow, I'm surprised it was that short.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: I mean, Cinderella was opening for poison. She loved Cinderella too,
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: it was.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: It was a very bad day. Again, surprise she ever
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: talked to you again.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: I mean, so to this day, we still talk about
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: that like one of the worst days in her life.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: And I've never let somebody down more in my life,
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: and I did my sister that day.
• 4:49
  Speaker 7: Is he That story just reminded me of the World
• 4:51
  Speaker 7: Cup story. I don't know if you guys saw it.
• 4:53
  Speaker 7: A A granddaughter bought her grandpa tickets to the World Cup.
• 4:59
  Speaker 7: He's a huge mech fan. She spent six thousand dollars
• 5:02
  Speaker 7: on two tickets for them to go to the games.
• 5:04
  Speaker 7: She was documenting it on TikTok. It was like beautiful
• 5:07
  Speaker 7: and like heartwarming. They get to the game and apparently
• 5:12
  Speaker 7: stub Hub just never sent them to the tickets and
• 5:15
  Speaker 7: they're just he's watching the game in his in his
• 5:19
  Speaker 7: gear outside on his phone. Wow, and like everybody is
• 5:23
  Speaker 7: so sad on TikTok watching him watch the game. Everybody
• 5:29
  Speaker 7: has made the situation right, Like I'm pretty sure they
• 5:31
  Speaker 7: flew him out to the next game and gave him
• 5:33
  Speaker 7: like VIP treatment, but the visual of him sitting outside
• 5:37
  Speaker 7: the stadium.
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: So they didn't get ripped off. They just never got
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: charged for the tickets. That that you know, it was
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: agreed to, right, that's what happened.
• 5:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah, So stub Hub canceled the order on them and said,
• 5:47
  Speaker 7: like we just couldn't go through with the order. But
• 5:49
  Speaker 7: that didn't account for like they still had to get
• 5:52
  Speaker 7: to the game, still had to do all that traveling
• 5:54
  Speaker 7: for the game and all the preparation that kind of
• 5:56
  Speaker 7: led into it.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: I mean that's kind of on them, right.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: You don't do it unless you have tickets in hand
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: or tickets on your computer.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: I mean you have to jack at pocket, right, you can't.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Start downloading stuff once you get to the stadium.
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: I mean, in a surprise to no one.
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: I will defend stub Hub here and say that the
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: problem is FIFA, as somebody who was literally trying to
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: sell tickets. FIFA makes it absolutely impossible to get your
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: hands on the ticket until they just decide you can
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: have them. Right, there's no like you bought the tickets,
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: here are your tickets. No, they go, okay, you bought tickets.
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: We'll let you know where they are in a few weeks.
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: And then in a few weeks they go, eh, your tickets.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Are in this area.
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: And then they're like, ah, your tickets are in this row,
• 6:40
  Speaker 6: and then like two weeks from the event, they're like, okay,
• 6:42
  Speaker 6: here are your tickets.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Maybe, but this seems like a situation where perhaps when
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: they said they couldn't go through with the transaction, that
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: someone offered more money for the tickets and they prefer
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: going through with that transaction.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: That's quite probable.
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: There's probably no rules when it comes to us, and
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: you're not gonna get anybody that's going to argue in
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: defense FIFA.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: So that is the argument ender right there, Mike.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: You right, well, I mean flying them out right, flying
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: them out to the next game, VIP treatment, all that
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: stuff would suggest that something like that happened.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: No, it would suggest that something happened that. Yes, you
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: once it's agreed upon, hey, these are your tickets, the
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: transaction will happen, and then you get all the flights
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: and you get there. It's just like, oh, yeah, this
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: is a sure thing, this is about to happen. And
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: then when it does it you're just again like my
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: sister did to me. Mother effing everybody, did you ever.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Figure out where the did you find the tickets?
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: Isn't ever found the tickets?
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: The biggest mystery of my life is where those tickets
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: ended up. Because I'm telling you, dude, we did nothing.
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: I wasn't doing cartwheels.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: I wasn't.
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: I didn't get any closer to some any close enough
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: to somebody to get pickpocketed, right, and it's South Florida
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: pickpocketing you on the inside of your jacket.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: It's just I have no idea what happened, and it's
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: just it's mind boggling to me.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Do you still search for them on a daily basis?
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: No?
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: But I never put physical tickets in the blinding jacket
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: pocket ever again.
• 8:00
  Speaker 7: Okay, if you are a pickpocketer, poison tickets have to
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: be pretty low on the list of things, exactly like
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: your reach in there.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: And a couple of tickets, a poison come out side.
• 8:12
  Speaker 7: And then I'm like, I think we're gonna just slide
• 8:14
  Speaker 7: this back in the pocket.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: We're just throwing in the garbage. Victor Hoblin next. Very
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: excited to have Victor Hoblin on with us. He is
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: here on behalf of the Travelers Championship, where he'll be
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: teeing it up this Thursday, June twenty fifth at TPC
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: River Highlands, airing on NBC and Golf Channel and streaming
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: on ESPN.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Plus and Peacock.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: I know this is one of the most popular stops here,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Victor on the PGA Tour, the Travelers Championship.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: Why is it so popular, Well.
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: Personally speaking, this is where I made my professional debut,
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: so it's it's a really cool and special place for
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: me to come back to. But I think, uh, it's
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: just the atmosphere of the event, Especially on the back
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: nine with how the holes are designed, you really feel
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: like there's an amphitheater and and people are on top
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: of you on both sides, and it's super exciting when
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: you have risk and reward holes. You have an opportunity
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: to make like a or to look like a fool,
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: or you you can end up looking like a legend
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: making they're pulling off some great shots. So I think
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: it just makes for really good TV. And it's just
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: one of those courses that's not it's not stupid, it's
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: it's uh, right there in front of you, and if
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: you hit good shots, you're gonna shoot low and and uh,
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: if you're off your game, it's it's gonna punish you.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: So I think it's just a great test of golf.
• 9:47
  Speaker 7: Victor, have you been able to talk to anybody at
• 9:49
  Speaker 7: the Travelers about your tea time Friday? Because I know
• 9:52
  Speaker 7: Norway France is the three pm game, and I'm assuming
• 9:55
  Speaker 7: you want to be locked in for that.
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: I would like to to watch that game. I thankfully
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: I do have an early morning tea time, so we
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: should be we should should be good for that.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Who'd you work that out with anyone? Anyone on
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: the tour.
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: I didn't do anything. It just worked just lucky. Blank
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: blank blank.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Have you had a chance to attend a Norway game yet?
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah? So, Chris Wright and the other Norwegian in the field,
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: we we went to the game on Sunday and UH
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: and watched Norway beat Senegal. So that was an awesome experience.
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: I'm not the biggest UH football or soccer fan UH
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: to be quite honest, but when Norway's playing and we're
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: this good, it's it's pretty exciting to watch.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: You're like the US fans, I mean pretty much. Yeah
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: the road, did you row the boat? Did you do it?
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: Afterwards? We didn't know, but we were watching on the
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: other side of the stadium and it was like maybe
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: a third of the stadium was all packed in in
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: Norway jerseys and they did the synchronized rowing. It was
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: it was pretty cool to watch in person.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: It's awesome. Have you got to know any of the
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: guys on the team at.
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: All, No, but we have some mutual friends and I
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: know they're all really big golf fans, and Chris actually
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: got to spend some time with some of them, I
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: think the night before in the hotel, and he wants
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: he's a big Arsenal fan, so he loves football, but
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: he didn't get to ask any questions. They just wanted
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: to ask him about golf. So they all seem to
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: be more a golf team than football.
• 11:27
  Speaker 7: Team, Victor, you played collegiately at Oklahoma State. If I
• 11:32
  Speaker 7: told you Oklahoma State wins a national championship in college football,
• 11:37
  Speaker 7: or Norway makes it to the World Cup final, say
• 11:40
  Speaker 7: against France, you're not guaranteed to win? Which one are
• 11:43
  Speaker 7: you taking?
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Good question?
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: I mean, I'm I'm Norwegian first of all, and for
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: Norway to get into the final would be uh would
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: be incredible. But I always root for my OSU OSU people.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: We had Wyndam clark on yesterday won his second US
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Open over the weekend. It was fantastic to see and
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: we like them a lot. You have been so close
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: in all of these majors, Victor, and so I'm wondering
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: how frustrating it is for you to get that closed
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: and not close the deal, and what keeps you motivated
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: here moving forward?
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: I mean this, this sport is challenging. It goes up
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: and down, and it's you know, it's frustrating when you
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: don't quite get over on the finish line. But being
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: in contention and having a chance to win, that's that's
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: why I practice so hard. That's why I wake up
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: every morning and wanting to get better and put myself
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: in those positions, and you know, I've I've have a
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: pretty nice record when I've put myself in positions to
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: close out tournaments. I've won my fresh air tournaments. So
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: I like, I like being in that position. It's just,
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: you know, my game hasn't quite been good enough. So
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: for me, it's just trying to get back to where
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: things were not too long ago. And I feel like
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: I'm really close to to being in a good place.
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: And as soon as that starts seeing the shots that
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: I want to see, I'm confident I'll be in those
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: positions again, then hopefully I can close them out. I'm
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: it's not trying not to be two results orientated. It's
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: just trying to control the things that I can control
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: and hopefully it goes my way at some point.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like you the law of averages.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: You know, if you put yourself in that spot as
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: many times as possible, eventually it's gonna you're gonna come through.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'd like to think so, but then it's also
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: you know, I'd like to not be averaged as well.
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: When I'm in that position, you know, you want to
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: close them out more than then you don't, And I
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: think that's. Uh, when you watch Tiger all the tournaments
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: that he won, it seemed like every time he was
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: in the hunt, he closed it out, and and uh, yeah,
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: there's that's that's pretty cool.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: What do you make of the new rules here with
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: the PGA Tour essentially two tours here Champion Store and
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: a tour to get to the Champion Store.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: I think it's awesome. What do you think?
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I I hope the fans like it
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: because I think, you know, we we want to be
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: entertaining for guys or people to watch. So I think
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: if if the majority of opinion like that those changes,
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: I think that's a good thing. You know, from my standpoint, it's, uh,
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: things have been changing all the time, so it's kind
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: of hard to keep track of sure, and it does
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: kind of seem like it's very similar to how things
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: have always been in a way. But I do think
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: it's a nice move changing or widening the fields cut events.
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: I think it's just it's a better product instead of
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: having these. Although it's nice for the players certain weeks
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: to have limited feels and no cut events, I think
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: it's a better product to have more players and a
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: cut Victor.
• 14:50
  Speaker 7: I caught some flat during the Ryder Cup because I'm
• 14:53
  Speaker 7: watching the team you're a bus celebrations and I'm thinking,
• 14:56
  Speaker 7: I'm like, I think I'm rooting for these guys.
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: Do you think that's fair?
• 15:00
  Speaker 7: Do I have your blessing to root for team?
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: You're up during the root for whoever you want. You're
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: not the You're not the only one that said that
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: to me, but uh oh, I think that's really cool. Uh.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: You know, we have really cool personalities on our team,
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: and I think we did a good job winning a
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: few American fans over so uh yeah, come over to
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: the dark side anytime you want.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: All right, do I have permission the roof for Norway
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: to win the World Cup? I mean, please, we need
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: all the help we could get. Where did your love
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: I was delighted to learn this about you. Where did
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: your love for for heavy metal music start?
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Where did that beget? Yeah?
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: Good question. I've always been into when I was growing up.
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: I always liked linking part that was kind of my
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: gateway band, some of the harder stuff. But uh, my
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: old childhood coach he was a Swedish guy and was
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: a golf coach in Norway and started the year. The
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: weather's not very good in Norway, so we would drive
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: over to Sweden and practice for a weekend. And whatever
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: he played it was all Romstein, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Metallica,
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: a lot of the classics, and I'd never really listened
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: to it before, and I thought, man, this is actually
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: pretty good. So then after that weekend, I got back home,
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: went on YouTube and then just search best metal songs
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: and this system of a down chop su he popped up.
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: And I listened to that a couple of times, and
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: the screaming was a little bit too much. I just
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: didn't quite get it. And then I came back and
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: listened to it a few more times and it was
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: like the flip just switched. I get it now, and
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: now there's no going back.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: All right, So what's the song that's before a big
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: round of golf? Right you're trying to get yourself fired up?
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: What's the song that you're playing in your headsets.
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: I don't really listen to a whole lot of music
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: before I go and play, and it will kind of
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: just be dependent on how I'm feeling, you know. I'll
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: have favorite songs that kind of change around all the time.
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: I'm like, I always find new stuff and it'll last
• 17:03
  Speaker 5: in there for maybe a month and then it's something new.
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: But uh, there's a there's a band that I really
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: listened to a lot last year. It's called Rivers of Nile,
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: and basically any song on that album I thought was
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: really cool. So that that really gets you going.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Wow, do you have a mount rushmore of heavy metal bands?
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Do you have? Yeah?
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: It could be a little blasphemous to say. I mean, it's.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: Like I boxed you in. I'm sorry.
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean there's a lot of like the bigger,
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: more mainstream bands. They're great, but I have listened to
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: some of those bands so much that I'm getting into
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: more like obscure stuff that I find pretty cool. So
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: it's it's it would be unfair to put a mount
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: Rushmer on there.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Guy, Mikey, I.
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: Just love that you asked the Norwegian to do a
• 17:53
  Speaker 6: mount rushmore.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: How do you feel about music like tricked out golf courts?
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: This is casual, casual golf, right, you're out on the
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: you're out in the course. You see guys in a
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: tricked out golf court and they're blasted music out of
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: that golf court.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: How do you feel about that?
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: What like playing music while you're playing golfer?
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: Yes, on a tricked out golf court. Yeah, you're good.
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean if you're not, Yeah, I wouldn't want
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: that if I'm playing a tournament necessarily, but you're playing
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: for fun and you're shooting a million, you might as
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: well put some good tunes on there.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: What's the last concert. Have you been to a heavy
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: metal concert? I'm assuming no, I haven't.
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: I'm not a big concert guy. Why just just my
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: headphones and just uh yeah, just take it in.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: Victor.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: Do you realize you're on the PGA Tour, You're one
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: of the best golfers in the world. The access you
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: can get to an Iron Maiden show, I mean, geez,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: what's the matter with you?
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah? I don't know. I just I like to listen
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: from my room.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: Oh gosh, it's so great. What's the greatest heavy metal
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: song of all time? According I'm not trying to put
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: you in a corner. I'm just wondering your favorite heavy
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: metal song all time?
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: One that's been like, really, I don't know influential is
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: the right word. But there's a couple songs that like
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: really stuck with me. Devin townshend Is it's called Deadhead.
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: That's an amazing song. It kind of goes on for
• 19:21
  Speaker 5: a while, but that's that's a great song. And then
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: I really listen to a lot of Trivium and there's
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: some Showgun it's like twelve minutes long or something. It's
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: it's awesome. So those two songs that have probably stuck
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: with me the most over the years.
• 19:36
  Speaker 7: All Right, Victor, I'm trying to get heavy into golf
• 19:38
  Speaker 7: right now. I've been doing a lesson early in the
• 19:40
  Speaker 7: week and then around on the weekend. What's the worst
• 19:43
  Speaker 7: golf advice you hear people giving to people?
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: Keep your head dead?
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, it's a lot of the generalized stuff,
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: but they're not really gonna hurt you too much. They
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: might just they're not really gonna make you better, but
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: at least they're not gonna hurt you. It's it's a
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: lot of times when you get advice that you know,
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: can get very technical and not necessarily accurate, so they
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: could actually hurt you, and a lot of I would say,
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: it's very easy to see when you're swinging and you
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: have some idiosynchrony syncrosies that you just like it looks weird,
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: and then you try to fix what looks weird. But
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: maybe that's the thing that might actually help you, or that's.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Actually the reason why its.
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly, we all swing differently, so I think just
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: not having an understanding of your swing is maybe the
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: biggest mistake.
• 20:40
  Speaker 7: And I don't know if you're you're tapped into golf
• 20:42
  Speaker 7: social media. One of the problems I'm having right now
• 20:45
  Speaker 7: with golf social media. You post your swing, everybody's got
• 20:49
  Speaker 7: to comment on your swing, trying to fix your swing.
• 20:50
  Speaker 7: And I was like, I wasn't even asking for any tips,
• 20:53
  Speaker 7: but everybody's coming out of the woodworks right now giving
• 20:55
  Speaker 7: me tips.
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: Yep, now just getting roasted for no reason. Yeah, everyone
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: else got an opinion.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, Bubba Watson told those ones like, hey, it'd be
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: ridiculous for me to give you tips on how to
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: swing a golf club. To your point, Victor, he said
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: to me that everyone's got, you know, different hand sized,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: different finger.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: Sized, different body types.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: You gotta hold the club the way it feels comfortable
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: to you, not the way it feels comfortable to me,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: or Victor Hoblet, Is that good advice.
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think so. There's a lot of truth in that.
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: I mean, there's certain rules and there are certain physical
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: laws that's going to help you play better. So there
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: are certain maxims that you should try to follow. However,
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: when you try to chase a certain look, it almost
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: always fails. That's usually not a good recipe. But you
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: try to mimic certain certain you know, proper biomechanic goal moves,
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: and you're gonna be good off.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: Has anyone tried to ever give Victor Hoblick a casual golfer,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: have they ever tried to offer you a sort of
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: swing advice? Uh, you know, like get the hell out
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: of here.
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: I'm sure it's happened in a proram or something. You
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: know that that just that one guy in the program
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: that's that's gonna tell you how it's done. You know,
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: that's we've all been there.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: We're all wincing.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: I'm that guy. I'm that guy.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: How would you feel they invited Mikey A right before
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: you started, We'll get you out of here in a second, Uh,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: to come to the Travelers Championship. How do you feel
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: maybe not this year, but maybe next year. Mikey A
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: on the bag for a rap.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: What do you think huh interesting?
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: Uh would be you know, and show up. You'll be fine.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: All right, we'll see if we can. Uh, we can
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: get it done.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Tell us one more time here on the way out, Victor,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: and we appreciate the time.
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Why you enjoy the Travelers Championship so much? And what
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: keeps you coming back every year?
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah? Just h the atmosphere's here's great. It's uh, it's
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: been a tournament that's been on TV for a long time.
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: I think people that have seen the tournament multiple times,
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: they're familiar with the holes, they recognize certain legendary shots,
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: and it's really cool. Cool to come back and try
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: to recreate some some own legendary moments. And hopefully we
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: h we stand on the top of the leaderboard on Sunday.
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: So yeah, I hope to see some of you guys there.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: All right, good luck this weekend. Hopefully mikeye you can
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: make it out there. Good luck this weekend, and good
