Hello, beautiful people, and welcome to our humble abode, the Thunderdome.

0:06.1

On this Master's Eve Wednesday, April 8, 2026, this program begins now.

0:13.5

Sports!

0:13.9

Are happening all around us, and I wore this green shirt today.

0:18.1

You know, this is probably the only green shirt you see me wear.

0:20.7

It is in

0:21.1

the rotation. Used to be more. It did fall out because I lost it in a pile in my office over there.

0:26.3

Found it for the Masters. Feels like it's apropos for what's about to happen down in beautiful

0:31.5

Augusta, Georgia, as the Masters of Golf will do battle down in an absolutely stunning, gorgeous golf course,

0:39.3

with not only Jim Nance providing the soundtrack of perfection, but golfers slicing and dicing

0:44.8

these hills and rolling fields of perfection all weekend to see who is going to be wearing a green

jacket at the very end of this.

0:52.9

Now, there's a lot of traditions, there's a lot of lingo, there's a lot of words, there's a lot of history, there's people without their phones watching something live on television. It's a trip back in time while celebrating the now and I cannot wait to see who is deemed Masters champion on Sunday. It's going to be a battle. You got some live golfers that are certainly in the mix. You got PGA guys obviously always dancing. Scotty Sheffler just had a baby. Congratulations.

1:16.7

How's he going to be coming out of that? How we all understand what human buds is there after

1:22.4

you have a child. Those first couple weeks, I don't know if you even, day one's day 10, which is day 20, which is all kind of in there. How Scottie Schaeffler going to be able to handle is this nice little maybe break away from, you know, super duper parenting baby love kid. Obviously everybody, but anybody that has a child understands what this is about. And then maybe Scottie gets out there and goes crazy. Maybe Rohra McElroy feels free because he's one-one.

2:11.6

live look at what's going on. Speeith, obviously spinning it. Swing looks good. Maybe Jordan

2:16.3

Speath out of nowhere. Long shot, Jordan Speeth wins the Masters because he goes right in a sand on this particular part three. As you remember, the par three course is its own thing. Then across the street is obviously full course. And the street, I mean, is the Magnolia Way, I believe, in the front. This is something that has obviously become a massive sensation
