Don Hahn
Don Alan, I just talking about how people like to wear golf wear on this office.
Peter
We're having a fashion conversation.
Don Hahn
Have you noticed that? Don? Like a lot of the, like, for whatever reason, I don't know why in this office, like a lot of men in this office wear like golf wear. Like, like, like polo shirts tucked in with a braided belt.
Peter
Like they're going out, they're gonna play nine after the shift.
Don Hahn
That's what it looks like.
Peter
You know, I'm getting out at 4. I got a little sunlight. I'll play 9. I'm already ready. Just throw the spikes on.
Alan
I'll tell you why they do it.
Don Hahn
Go ahead.
Alan
Cause they're tools.
Peter
Oh, my God. I wasn't ready to go there.
Alan
I'm ready to go there.
Don Hahn
I get you.
Peter
That's exactly the reason Don's ready.
Alan
You gotta show off. I do a lot. I do a lot of things. Like three or four times a week. You don't, you don't see me practicing at the water cooler.
Don Hahn
No, but that's not the. No, no.
Alan
It's exactly the same thing. What if I, when I dress up in the outfit?
Don Hahn
But hold on.
Alan
I just like coming with a chef hat on, walking around like a yo yo. You'd be like, you know what you got Problems, man. Go home, Let him go.
Peter
Or when it comes in, it's like, oh, yeah, I played on Saturday. And then they tell you how they play. They tell you about a specific hole and you're looking. I'm like, can you just finish? I'm not interested.
Don Hahn
Well, let me ask you what's worse, though. What's worse? People who play golf and then dress in golf wear to work or people who don't even play golf and they're still dressed like they play golf at work?
Peter
That's when.
Don Hahn
That's what I'm pointing at.
Peter
You're admitting I gave up and I'm just gonna like, that Looks like it matches, so it's easy.
Don Hahn
I gave up, Don. You know what my thing is? Be in or out. If you want to go formal wear in the office, the office should be, hey, people dress up around here, great. Wear a sport coat. I'm down. You guys know I'm down. You guys know I'm usually one speed or the other full on. Full on suit and shoes to work.
Peter
Or like today.
Don Hahn
Or today. Black T shirt.
Peter
I don't know what's on that shirt.
Don Hahn
It's. It's a. It's a varvatos T shirt with weird white stains built into it. I don't know.
Peter
That's built in.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Peter
I thought that was lunch.
Alan
So I like cream. Can I come in with like, bowling shoes?
Peter
I want you to. I want you to.
Don Hahn
When I'm, When I'm.
Alan
When I'm heating up my lunch at the microwave, can I like, practice my throw? No, please do that. I'm going to start doing that from now because I like bowling. I respect bowling. I think, I think it deserves more respect.
Don Hahn
You think it shows more athleticism than golf to bowl?
Alan
Yeah. Because it's a 14 pound ball.
Don Hahn
No, this is a bad take.
Peter
I love this.
Alan
Not a bad take at all.
Don Hahn
Well, it's an interesting take. I disagree with it, but it's an interesting take.
Peter
I love. But I would love this argument.
Don Hahn
Skill. The skill.
Peter
You're saying Don versus Jefferson right now.
Don Hahn
You think this leisure sport is better,
Peter
Is harder to play.
Don Hahn
Oh, come on. The, the, the. The fact of the matter is this. I've had a day where I bowled pretty well.
Peter
Yeah. What's pretty well?
Don Hahn
Like 175. I had a turkey. You know, like something good happened. I've been. I've played golf way more than I've bowled. Never randomly was like 86. Like that never has happened.
Peter
You think 175 is like an 86?
Don Hahn
No. It's not. No, it's not. A 175 is like. It's like a 99.
Peter
Yeah. Breaking 100.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Don Hahn
That's never happened either.
Peter
Okay, well, to you, probably.
Alan
But the point is, it's just that. Why is golf accepted? But there's other recreate. What if I just like to play darts? Do I get to practice my throw at the microphone?
Peter
Do they have dart, like fashion?
Don Hahn
He's talking about just standing around doing this, though.
Alan
Yeah, just. If I did that, you would. You would want to put me in an institution. Meanwhile, I'm practicing my swing and it's like, oh, let's go talk to him. He must be cool. No, he's not cool. Well, he's a nerd. You shouldn't talk to him. Most likely a virgin. Or despise his family. It's one of the two. There's no in between. If you're playing golf, you despise your family or you've never had sex. There is no in between. And if you're practicing your swing at the microwave, you're a toolbox.
Don Hahn
You suck. Music. Hold on. Do you know.
Peter
Do you know that I love that? We got it.
Don Hahn
You know. And you know, Alan, I gotta only talk to you. I can't talk to you. Okay, the thing is, the reason this is hard for me, it's a little awkward, tired.
Peter
For the.
Don Hahn
Is even though I'm like, you know, I'm barely a golfer. I have clubs. I've played. Sure, I've played 50 times in my life. 60 times. I love golf. It's a great time. But I'm not a. I'm not a golfer. Golfer. I didn't go last. I didn't make it out last year once. But I'm not going to lie to you. There are times when I'm bored and I will sit around and do a pretend. Why would you do that, by the way? But I used to do that with baseball, too.
Peter
Swing back.
Don Hahn
I do pretend, pretend. And I'm the guy who do the pretend. Walking, dribbling. I do. I've done all those things.
Alan
I've been there.
Don Hahn
I do it. I don't know why I do it. And now Don thinks I'm like the guy at the cooler.
Peter
You don't do it anymore?
Don Hahn
No, I don't just randomly do it loosely in the office.
Peter
Like Don said, you're no longer a virgin. You don't do these things. I think Don is making a point.
Don Hahn
I did it post virginity.
Alan
If you're somebody that thinks you're the only one in the room. All right. And you decide to do that? I'm cool. These guys did. They're hoping people are watching.
Peter
Yeah, because they want. Hey, you golf? Oh, yeah.
Alan
Oh, you can't.
Peter
Little hitch in my swing. I'm working on it. Yeah, whatever.
Don Hahn
Hold on, Don. I just want to start it because I want to clear this up for the Internet because I think this could go viral. So just to be clear, to reiterate what you said, if you love golf, you either hate your family or you're a virgin. No in between.
Peter
Wow, there's.
Alan
I'm not talking about you who's golf 50, 60 times.
Don Hahn
You're not about people who are out every weekend. If you're out every weekend.
Alan
I'm talking about the guy that's out there every weekend. I'm talking about the guy that's practicing his swing at the microwave. All he talks about is golf. Sits there and watches golf as if he's gonna pick up some tricks. Or Jefferson actually has a T in his pocket.
Don Hahn
Oh, wow. You're talking about the guys who bathe themselves in pork and beans, right?

Peter
What else we got?
Don Hahn
Do you know the white. Do you know the whiteboard? Wednesday this. This at the station is favorite Quentin Tarantino movie.
Alan
I did see the tweet. Yeah.
Don Hahn
And yesterday our new intern, one of the spring interns, Chase was was proudly walking around going, I I don't know who that is about Quentin Tarantino, but
Peter
I believe we had this conversation.
Alan
He's.
Don Hahn
Was he with us?
Peter
We had this conversation because we told him he has eight days.
Don Hahn
Yeah, but no, Don wasn't here.
Peter
Don wasn't here for that.
Alan
No, I think that was Monday.
Don Hahn
Don. He didn't know.
Alan
That's right.
Peter
Don was.
Don Hahn
He didn't know who Tarantino was.
Peter
No.
Don Hahn
And he hadn't heard of any of the movies.
Peter
Poor kid.
Alan
Then he's dumb. No, no, honestly. Or is he was. Has he been institutionalized? Has he been like locked up somewhere? I don't want to make fun like it may be something traumatic happens.
Don Hahn
Yeah, you don't know the answer.
Peter
He's a Rutgers kid. He wants to be a play by play guy.
Alan
Like to be a fan. But Quentin Tarantino's movies did not have heard of Kill Bill. Not heard Pulp Fiction.
Don Hahn
Not heard Pulp Fiction.
Alan
I'm not saying not seen Fiction.
Don Hahn
Never heard of it. Yeah, never heard of it.
Peter
Just don't even know who by the way is
Don Hahn
Once upon a time in Hollywood. It just came out.
Alan
I don't. I don't want him to work here anymore.
Peter
He just got started, Don.
Don Hahn
Well, college kid, grand opening, grand closing.
Peter
I think we give him eight days.
Alan
No, but you watch all disturbance by this.
Don Hahn
No, I believe me, I. We were.
Alan
We called them out again. You don't have to be a fan. You should have thrown them out. Yeah. Shouldn't have been like Jazzy Jeff and maybe you didn't see the movie. He's not A movie guy. But you're telling me. Walk this earth. He's in college.
Don Hahn
But you never.
Peter
He said he only watches sports movie.
Alan
Yeah, he's only a sports movie guy. Which sports movie? He should have a segment. He's only a sport.
Peter
I say we give him the eight days. I gave him eight days from.
Don Hahn
Yeah, we'll see. We'll see if he. This is the game.
Peter
Homework, watch. Everyone come in and we'll have you sit. He wants to have a chance to sit at the mic.
Don Hahn
But did he say that? We don't know what he's gonna do.
Peter
I told him. And do you have to watch them and we have to come in and you'll give us a little bit of each movie so we proves you saw it and then you're clear. And if you don't do it, you're out, you're dead.
Don Hahn
So that's. That's what's happening here, Don.
Alan
No, that's just for the.
Don Hahn
Never.
Alan
Never have heard of him.
Don Hahn
It's. It's very. It's troubling. No, it's very troubling.
Peter
Well, Peter went as far to blame the family.
Don Hahn
Yeah. I said, what's going on in the home? Yeah, that's my thing.
Peter
There are issues there.
Don Hahn
I showed my niece and nephew Pulp Fiction recently, and it's not like they hadn't heard of Tarantino. They were 17. They hadn't seen Pulp Fiction yet. I said, you guys are old enough now. Let's sit down and watch. I saw guys. I saw Pulp Fiction in the theater when I was 17. That's when it came out. So I said, let's sit down. And I guess I was 15 when it came out. So I said, let's sit down and do the right thing.
Alan
I've never fired a rifle or had a fur hat, but I know who Daniel Boone is. Like, there's certain things you just know.
Don Hahn
Let me Don. The Yankees need to fire Daniel Boone.
Peter
Was that a call?
Don Hahn
The second I hear the name Boone. I don't care what Boone. It is Daniel Boone, Brett Boone, Aaron Boone. You fire him.

This college basketball tournament moment is brought to you by Marriott Bonvoy.
Podcast Host
In a 2008 NCAA tournament, sophomore Steph Curry led 10th seated Davidson on a thrilling Cinderella run to the Elite eight. In the four games, Curry scored 40, 30, 33. And in a final game against eventual national champion in one seeded Kansas, he dropped 25 in a 50. Looking back, I'm definitely proud of what we accomplished.

We were debating whether or not we've taken a call today.
Peter
I think we did.
Don Hahn
Alan thinks we did.
Alan
At least I don't think we did.
Peter
You know, I feel like.
Don Hahn
You don't think we did, Don?
Alan
I don't think so.
Peter
If he was that bad now, does that mean.
Don Hahn
Is that some sort of record? Like how often are there shows with not one call?
Alan
Not this show.
Peter
I know.
Don Hahn
You know that means then if there's only room for one call, you know what you do.
Peter
No. Why can't we just clean? No. Okay. Clean day.
Jimmy
Hi, Don. Peter. Alan. Peter, you're a genius. You're the only non Armenian person in the world that would have known that Tarkanian would have a token Armenian on the team. Brian Emerson, you are a genius. That's how worldly you are. Fellas, I had the basketball game on last night, as I always do. I'm a radio guy. Tyler and Monica made a great point. Zion Williamson is so old school. He's only taken four three point shots. He's six. Six. He's the only high scoring basketball in the last 35 years that has shot so few three point shots. This guy's incredible. Now you guys don't realize you're sitting on a keg. Now, Pitino, if he gets this done, wins the next four games. This will be the greatest New York sports success story since. Well, no, Outside of the 69 Mets, the greatest New York sports story. I am telling you that it's that great. If he can get it done. Opening day. This is how powerful. There were three important dates in the 60s baseball. Opening Day, the All Star Game, and the first game of the World Series. I couldn't tell you which of the three were the best. All I knew was an opening day. You had Bunnings versus Koufax, Marichal versus Spahn, Drysdale versus Jenkins. It was that great. I remembered so well. 62 years ago, Shea Stadium opening on April 10, 1964. I'm coming out of P.S. 166 in Astoria. Still there, by the way. And I'm walking with Mitchell Jacobs, my best friend. We're on Broadway between 32nd and 33rd. We go into the bar. It's Bob Friend versus Jack Fischer. And I remember they chased us out of the bar. But that was opening day at shea Stadium. Listen. 50 years ago, Steinbrenner's greatest thing, greatest accomplishment. Nobody ever talks about it. Think about it. It's never been done in the history of sports. He renovated the iconic Yankee Stad. It opened in 76. The refurbished Yankee Stadium. He took that place 50 years later. No stadium in the history of sport. That was always a pleasure.
Peter
Always a pleasure.
Don Hahn
See if Jimmy can close it out. We have 30 seconds. Jimmy, you get to be called to today, but you only got 30 seconds. What's up, Jimmy?
Alan
I don't even know how to follow that up anymore. Can't be followed.
Don Hahn
It's. It's. We have no idea. I'm sorry. Alan was right. I was wrong. That's it. You move on. I apologize. What do you got, Jimmy?
Jimmy
Yeah, Netflix.
Alan
I'm Die Hard baseball fan.
Jimmy
Mets fan, actually, but yeah, I'm not
Alan
subscribing Netflix just to watch this one game.
Don Hahn
And you don't subscribe to Netflix as is.
Alan
Really not.
Jimmy
Well, I'm a diehard WWE fan too, but no, I don't.
Don Hahn
You're Die Hard WWE fan and they got baseball now. You're still not going to Netflix?
Marriott Bonvoy Announcer
Nope.
Don Hahn
Wow. I don't know if I think you're an idiot or I respect you, but it's right down the middle, I think. I respect it, Jimmy. Thank you, Jimmy.
Alan
Wow, good.
Don Hahn
He will not. He loves. He said die Hard wwe, right? The flagship show is on every Monday.
Peter
Correct.
Don Hahn
You know, I think I. My Netflix plan is through, like my wife's T mobile account. We have it, like with commercials. We don't pay for it. I just, it's included. Like, you can't find a way to get it. There's a lot of ways to get these things. But I.
Peter
It's a principle.
Don Hahn
He's committed. Anyways, thing from Adams family, we'll throw out the first pitch. We'll break that down as well as the Yankee game starting with you guys tomorrow at 3:00 right here.
Jimmy
Let's go, Yankee.
