Summary

A clickbait title for you on another long episode, which we might stop apologising for - there’s no obligation to listen to all of it. In fact it’s simply a necessary length to cover Maja Stark’s debut major win at the US Women’s Open, while also asking if the consistency of excellence from Scottie Scheffler means that he might have a Tiger-like career. This and much more full-on golf chat is the meat in the middle of a rambling sandwich where we also touch upon Andrew’s TV quiz behaviour, Iain’s squirrel vaseline and Eddie’s inability to perform a basic bodily function.

It's time now for the chipping forecast.

0:29.2

I'm not going to lie.

0:30.4

I've not been in top form.

0:31.7

So I'm just going to, I'm going to hand this over to our regular special guest to steer this through things.

0:37.0

Because I've got a lot to talk about. so much golf going on in the world. Ian Carter is like a coiled spring. Eddie Peppel is like what kind of spring? Uncoiled. That's just a line of wire. Well, you mentioned him the other day. He's like Zebedee. He's the one that's come in with the biggest bounce. I think, you know, just in our sort of, and actually, for the first time ever, we've had a minor pre-pod chat. Which is a surprise because I didn't, we didn't have a very good night's sleep last night. I couldn't get to sleep. I don't know why. And then we've heard what I'm pretty sure now our wasps chewing through in the wall in our bedroom. We've had it before and I just,

0:54.7

I just know the sound. So we're waiting for the little wasp to appear, but I couldn't get to sleep. So I haven't had a great deal of sleep. So, you know, I'm bringing it. Yeah. Eddie did. But Ian joined. So I start the meeting.

1:27.7

Ian joined and we sort of greeted each other in the way of jaded individuals.

1:32.1

Although Ian's not.

1:33.4

Again, I, no, because I can actually see on the Zoom.

1:36.4

I'm grey just now, Ashen.

1:38.7

Been under the weather, haven't you?

1:40.0

I've not been, oh, I've not been a well bunny, honestly.

1:43.6

I've been really struggling.

1:45.5

Where's the AG1 gone?

1:47.3

The AG1?

1:48.3

The AG1. But I listened to that Radio 4 program that explained it was. If not, I'm not going to say it's fine.

1:55.1

But if you get all the nutrients from your food, you don't necessarily need to have any of these green boosting drinks.

2:01.9

So it was, you know, it's 80 quid a month. Why would you do that then? So, you know, I'm sure. Yeah, but also it's got that sort of not placebo effect because it's got good stuff in it, but it has got that effect. the thing if I'm drinking this, I feel better.

1:59.6

So it's, it probably works after a fashion.

2:02.9

But I took us, I've been taking a few supplements because I've been on a pretty strict diet. And I took one the other week, about a week ago. And it made me full for two days. I don't people talk about this as Empec and all of that stuff. Well, I found a natural, naturally occurring one. And they were called exogenous ketones. I took a bit of this powder and I'm not being, I couldn't eat for two days. I felt terrible for Jen. She was cooking these lovely meals. She was starting to get angry with me. So I've not taken it since. But it was unbelievable. My appetite just diminished. Can I just say you do look well though and you did bounce on to this

2:51.1

call with such energy. I thought, you know, it's 9 o'clock in the morning and you were, so this is, have you still walking around with a weighted vest on? I've up to twice a day, which is, and I've added some weight. So I'm feeling pretty good. I'm feeling quite fit and strong. Yeah, no, I'm doing all right. I'm enjoying my time off.

2:48.3

This is good to hear. This is good to hear. It was a late night last night because obviously watching the golf, sort of like trying to double watch it with Schaeffler in the Memorial. And Maya Stark, you know, with her winning the US Open. So there is some golf to talk about, but sorry, Eddie, I... Yeah, I... Well, look, I've been re-watching Stranger Things again for about the fourth time. We've been watching Jeremy Clarkson's farm. The golf has taken back. See, I did watch the Scottish Sheffler golf because when Ben Griffin did what he did on 15 and 16, it made it exciting.
