Ready-set-Bet, it is Matt Brown, Dustin Swedlidelson in here with me as he plays the air.

0:23.6

You like our theme better than your thing.

0:25.6

I hate to say this.

0:28.5

My theme on cashing out, and I'm going to include the logo and the color scheme, is probably, I don't want to offend the people who did it, but I...

0:37.1

Here's the thing. Here's why you can feel good about it because it's all just royalty who did it, but I, I think here's,

0:37.8

this is why you can feel good about it because it's all just royalty free music. So it's like,

0:40.8

no, no, no, but I just think my show was given the least amount of thought because it was the

0:45.7

last show in the day. So I got last, I got last options. I think that's just what happened there.

0:50.3

Like, I do this show. I found doing a numbers game this week the theme song follow the money I think is probably the best one we have you're probably second here so I do notice doing all these other shows like man everyone else got really good theme songs and mine is kind of like whatever we got a lot of baseball to talk but real quick over in the golf like we said because the leaderboard was so jumbled, Chris Kirk is six under for the day. He has moved up 56 spots on the leaderboard, and he is T3 right now. One stroke off of Mad McNeely and Alex Smalley, who are yet to tee off. But there are some lurkers. We get Justin Rose at 5 under.

1:27.6

He is now T10.

1:29.1

Sanders Schaughley is 3 under through 7.

1:32.1

He has moved up 20 spots already in his now T10 out there.

1:37.4

And oh, that guy, Roy, Michael Roy, he's 2 under as well.

1:40.4

He's T20, not dead yet.

1:42.5

So this could get interesting, could get fun for us. All right, Your boy, Chris Kirk, 67 to 1 to win outright, plus 415 top 5, plus a $1 52 top 10. Can we make the case for a guy whose name I literally just heard for the first time one hour ago? It's like one of those things where we look and I'm always looking for like, where's regression going to come in? And then I look and go, oh, he's gained 3.53 strokes putting today. There it is. Yeah, like that's not sustainable. That's not reality. No, that's where the regression is going to say. He's up 56 spots. 56 spots. Hey, man, he'll go to bed tonight feeling good about himself, though. Yeah. Oh, he he's going to get a nice payday, which by the way, we kind of, I glossed over that a little bit earlier. So they released the payment information for the PGA Championship. They're going to do a 20 and a half million dollar prize pool, 1.5 million more than they did last year, 369 for the winner. And they're actually paying people that didn't make the cut,

2:37.0

which I think is at least somewhat interesting,

2:39.3

$4,300 to everybody that didn't make the cut.

2:42.6

And I think in this tournament in particular,

2:44.8

I'm okay with that because you're bringing in a bunch of PGA tour professionals

2:48.4

who are just, you know, work at the clubhouse at your club and stuff. And so it's it's an expense for them to come to this. So at least, at least to like come away with like not out of pocket to be able to play in something like this. I'm fine with them giving them 4,300 bucks. You know what? I always wonder, how does that work from an accounting perspective? Now we're getting in the weeds here. but like is like is it direct deposit is it the next payroll cycle do you get it as soon as the tournament
