Thank you for downloading the app and our radio affiliates around the country. Let me start with Scotty Scheffler, rolling to the Open Championship at 17 under. This isn't about his greatness, because we can talk about that. We have talked about that. But this is the personality attached to the greatness. And this has happened before. You know, the spurs were labeled boring because Tim Duncan played a boring brand of basketball. Pete Sampras didn't really have a personality. He was the face, the focal point of men's tennis. Mike Trout for a long time in baseball, boy, he's so great. But. So this is what we're asking for now. Growing up in a different generation, if you're of similar age, we didn't ask that of our celebrities. We didn't ask that of our athletes. It was like they do something really well. And we appreciate that. Times have changed now. You got to sell a sport. And a lot of times these athletes are selling themselves. You're selling a product. There's a lot more involved in this. But this will sound like we're denigrating Scotty Scheffler, and we're not. We're just stating the facts. He plays a very impressive game of golf, but we've gotten used to Tiger Woods. Well, Tiger wasn't a, you know, interesting personality. His interviews weren't very good. He just played in a way, in a style that we had never seen before. It's like, oh, my gosh, did you see that? And he started at age two when he was on the Mike Douglas Show. We had watched him grow up right in front of us. Then all of a sudden, you're watching him dominate the sport, and he dominated in a way that we hadn't seen. Well, we hadn't seen since Jack Nicklaus. Now, nobody ever said is Jack Nicklaus got a good personality when he was dominating. Arnold Palmer had a great personality, but he wasn't the golfer that Jack Nicklaus was. Tom Watson, great golfer. I don't know if anybody said, man, but what about his personality? It's different now because social media and what you're selling and how you're selling it. And I'm watching Scotty Scheffler, and he just is methodical. This is what he does. Nothing's changing. This is the way he's going to play. This is who he is. Now, he did show personality at the end on 18 when it came to his family. I'm not asking him, you know, to be ready for Broadway. And he wants to share. Great. But I've interviewed thousands of athletes in my career. Some have it, some don't, some will never have it. Bryson DeChambeau had a personality transformation all of a sudden. He went from, you know, the heel in wrestling to the good guy. He's high five in the gallery, and he. He wants to be loved, even though he's on the live tour and you don't get to see much of him. But with Scotty Scheffler, this is who he is. And if you enjoy just somebody going out and being very, very good at what they do, no frills. There you go. You got it. And the numbers I know, you know, for such a long period of time and for the most part, when I was at Sports center, we were waiting for the next Jordan. Oh, who's the Next Jordan? Tracy McGrady's the next Jordan. Penny Hardaway, Grant Hill. Nobody's the next. Nobody's the next Tiger Woods. Scotty Scheffler can match him, surpass him in some categories. Here he's on Tiger. He's not Jack, he's not Arnie. But that's okay because there isn't another Jack Nicklaus. There isn't Another Tiger Woods. There isn't another Arnold Palmer. And that's where you have to accept what you're seeing. Because when it comes to golf, we got spoiled for a long period of time because people tuned in to see Tiger Woods. We had, you know, once again, not seen that style, that personality, the expression like his personality was on the golf course, off the course, not a good interview. It's like Derek Jeter. Derek Jeter famously went out of his way to not say anything, but he made you feel good when he didn't tell you anything. But he was just a great baseball player. Certain athletes, you know, Mike Trout, we've had him on. We even said to the commissioner, you know, do you go out of your way to encourage Mike Trout to be more of a personality, to be more out there ready to be interviewed, be the focal point? Anthony Edwards of the Minnesota Timberwolves, he said, I don't want to be the face of the league. There's a lot that goes along with that. Hey, I'm just a charismatic basketball player. Okay, Is that good enough for this for us? I should say, because it feels like with Scotty Scheffler, we're going, yeah, but. Okay, what is the. Yeah, but there's no personality. You can't put that in your bag when you've got on the golf course. This is just who he's going to be. So appreciate it for what it is, for who he is and who he's trying to be, and that is himself. Here's Jordan Spieth, Scotty Scheffler's good friend. On Scheffler's personality. He doesn't care to be a superstar. He's not transcending the game like Tiger did. He's not bringing it to non golf audience necessarily. He doesn't want to go, do, you know, the stuff that, you know, a lot of us go do corporately, anything like that. He's. He just wants to get away from the game and separate the two. Because I know that he, you know, at one time felt he was too much. He was taking it with him. And, you know, whenever he made that switch, I don't know what it. When it was, but, you know, to have his hobbies, he's always with his family and they're always doing stuff. I think it's more so the difference in personality from any other superstar that you've seen in the modern era and maybe any sport, it doesn't define him. He said that at a press conference. Winning or losing, golf doesn't define me. And I'm fine with that. You know, Joker, I don't think basketball defines him. I think that's just who he is. Remember the big rivalry with Andre Agassi and Pete Sampras? You know, Agassi was style over substance and had his own shoe and he had the, what, Nikon camera. And Pete Sampras didn't care about any of that stuff. But that's who he was, who he is. Even now, you don't see him. But Andre Agassi, you'll see him doing tennis commentary. So I think we're going to be asking for something and it's not going to be there. Here's the one thing that I kept an eye on, and that is Scotty Scheffler when he's putting. That's what I want to know. You win tournaments, lose tournaments inside 10ft. There was a while that Tiger, I don't think missed a six foot putt in years. But that's where you have supreme confidence and you have concentration. Scheffler from inside 10ft over four days had 63 putts inside 10ft. He made 59 of the 63. You will not beat him. You will not. No one will beat him if he plays that way. No one. Now you'll get guys. There's always going to be somebody who comes out of nowhere. That's what happened with Tiger. I mean, look at some of his great matches. They weren't against great golfers. You're like, okay, that guy's stepping up and he's going to take him, take him to, you know, at least make it interesting on the final day. And you saw that yesterday. There are some really good golfers. But is Justin Thomas, have we seen the best of him? Jordan Spieth, like from age 21 to 24, we've seen the best of him. Ricky Fowler, we've seen the best of him. So who is it? Who's the next guy? And there will be two or three that will be up on that. They'll be on the leaderboard week in and week out. There's a lot of times you'll watch the leaderboard and you go, who's that? And I follow it. Who's that? But if Scotty Scheffler is playing, I'm looking at the odds to win the four majors next year. Masters plus 300, PGA Championship plus 350, US Open plus 320, the Open Championship plus 300. I mean, he's getting into the Tiger category. Is he Tiger? No. But could he have the same Results as Tiger. Could he put up similar numbers? What was the stat that they had from his first to his fourth major? It was like 1197 days. Exactly the same number of days in between Tigers first and his fourth. By the way, Scheffler may look like he's 35, but he's 20. He just turned 29 years of age. Come on. He's here, he's staying. Yes, yes. That's a. That's an old looking 29. All right, let's come up with a poll question once again, introducing our starting lineup. Fritzi is back from his European vacation. Seton Marv. Paulie Seaton. You're going to do the honors with the poll question today. Yeah, we're gonna use one of Marvin's here that he sent over. Most reluctant superstar ever. Scotty Shepler, obviously. Tim Duncan. He was a reluctant superstar. Yes, he was. Pete Sampras. Yeah. Wasn't reluctant superstar. We also have room for other if we'd like. So you have Mike Trout, Tim Duncan, Pete Sampras. Oh, mic trapped. Yep. I don't know. I don't know if Scotty's reluctant. I just don't know it. That's a, that's a tricky word. Reluctant. That means are. Are you. You don't want to share or you can't share. You don't want to reveal anything. So I think reluctant, that's an interesting word to attach to this. I have anybody else unwilling. Unwilling and hesitant. Disinclined as the meaning of. Yeah, I don't know if he's unwilling. I just. He might not be able to talk about himself or share or maybe there's nothing really interesting to tell you. You know, it just. He even talked about yesterday, he goes, you know, if I go to Chipotle by my house, I'm swarmed. But if I go to another Chipotle, and trust me, I'm not going to tell you where that is. Nobody bothers me, like, okay, like, wow, you can't go into a Chipotle. Yes. Marvin, you always talk about the difference between being a great player and a superstar. The players that I mentioned in the poll question, they're great players. They don't want to be superstars. They want to do their job and they want to go home. So I think that's the big difference. Asking more of our, our stars now, now we're saying now, trust me, there are players, athletes who are overrated because of their personalities. Like they're a great personality, but they're, they don't live up to the personality as far as performance goes. Yes. Mark. It's almost like Odell Beckham was a bigger star than Julio Jones, but Julio Jones was definitely the better wide receiver. Ray, is that a better comparison? Yes. That's good. No, I like that. Yes. Paulie. It made for a frustrating Sunday and it should have been a celebration of, you know, he was like Katie Ledecky swimming out there on Sunday. It was, everyone was in his wake. The guy was, I think he was six shots clear on the turn and he just part his way home. And he did it so measured and calm. He and his caddy are having casual conversations about their lie like it's another the Honda Open and it should be more celebrated how great he was. But it made for a the right word here, a non compelling TV experience yesterday for golf fans and non golf fans. And it's not Scottie Shoefer's fault that he's that great. But it feels like we want to blame somebody for this, right? He ruined our Sunday. He ruined our Sunday by being so awesome. Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America.

So what happened to Chappaquiddick? Well, it really depends on who you talk to. There are many versions of what happened in 1969 when a young Ted Kennedy drove a car into a pond and left a woman behind to drown. There's a famous headline, I think, in the New York Daily News. It's teddy escapes, Blonde drowns. And in a strange way, right, that sort of tells you the story really became about Ted's political future, Ted's political hopes, and will Ted become president? Chappaquiddick is a story of a tragic death and how the Kennedy machine took control. And he's not the only Kennedy to survive a scandal. The Kennedys have lived through disgrace, affairs, violence, you name it. So is there a curse? Every week we go behind the headlines and beyond the drama of America's royal family. Listen to United States of Kennedy on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. American history is full of wise people. Walt Whitman said something like, you know, 99.99 of war is diarrhea and 1% is glory. Those founding fathers were gossipy AF, and they loved to cut each other down. I'm Bob Crawford, host of American History Hotline, the show where you send us your questions about American history, and I find the answers, including the nuggets of wisdom our history has to offer. Hamilton pauses, and then he says, the greatest man that ever lived was Julius Caesar. And Jefferson writes in his diary, this proves that Hamilton is for a dictator based on corruption. My favorite line was what Neil Armstrong said. It would have been harder to fake it than to do it. Listen to American History Hotline on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. In 2020, a group of young women in a tidy suburb of New York City found themselves in an AI fueled nightmare. Someone was posting photos. It was just me naked. Well, not me, but me with someone else's body parts on my body. Parts that looked exactly like my own. I wanted to throw up. I wanted to scream. It happened in Levittown, New York. But reporting the series took us through the darkest corners of the Internet and to the front lines of a global battle against deepfake pornography. This should be illegal. But what is this? This is a story about a technology that's moving faster than the law and about vigilantes trying to stem the tide. I'm Margie Murphy. And I'm Olivia Carville. This is Levittown, a new podcast from iHeart podcasts Bloomberg and Kaleidoscope. Listen to Levittown on Bloomberg's Big Take podcast. Find it on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 877.3dp show, as we already do every Monday, best and worst of the weekend. What you saw that you liked, you didn't like. We have an alternate Scotty Scheffler poll question. That didn't take long. 22 minutes into the show and we're changing maybe the wording on our poll question. All right, Paul, what's the alternate of Scottie Scheffler? Already it's worded this way for the PGA Tour. Scotty Scheffler is awesome or an issue. My reasoning is like the best player in the sport, clearly the best player in the sport and probably going forward is not engaged in the star power process and not compelling. Tv. Compelling as a golfer, not compelling as a personality. You interviewed Commissioner Manfred a decade ago about this issue with Mike Trout, and he said it was an air quotes issue for mlb. Somewhat similar. I think issues strong. I think it's too strong of a word because you're, you are seeing somebody great, though. How often does that person come along? A lot of these guys, it's, it's a two or three year window. If, if there's consistency with Scotty Scheffler with greatness, then that's great for the game. If, you know, he could be a meteor, he could be, you know, a shooting star. And then all of a sudden we've seen this two, three, four years, then it's gone. Sustainability, I mean, that's, that's the mark of greatness. That's what, you know, Tiger was able to do. Nick Faldo, Greg Norman, Nicholas Palmer. It's, it's not five years. It's a decade. It's two decades. That's what I'm curious about. I can't ask him to be something that he's not. He's not Bryson dechambeauty. But then Bryson dechambeau is not Scotty Scheffler. And I think we got spoiled with Tiger because Tiger gave you highlights. Scotty doesn't hit it farther than anybody. He doesn't do anything where you go, oh, my God, did you see that? It's all right. Here's a little baby cut down the middle of the fairway. All right. He's seven feet away. Okay. He made a birdie onto the next hole. That's Scotty Scheffler. Yes. Eaton. Not only does Scotty not do anything, like, super remarkable, like you said, when he's playing other than consistently play well, he doesn't even celebrate when he wins. Tiger at least gave you a fist pump, and you were like, hell, yeah, dude. Look at this. Dude is pumped. Scotty Shepler barely. His pulse barely got above. Like, I don't. It was just categorized as living. Yeah. Yeah. He walked over. He. He sunk, what, like a foot and a half? Punt. He picked up the ball. Yeah. Walked over, kind of took his hat off real quick. Shook a hand. Shook a hand. Shook a hand and just walked off and was like, okay, I. I won that one, too. That's pretty cool. Get excited. When he saw his wife and kid, he's. He got excited when he saw them, and I was like, wow. Which is weird. Anyway. Yeah, I mean, I. I react when I see my wife like that, you know? Yes. Paul. He's gotten so good at the sport where he doesn't miss fairways or greens. And put himself into position to have a remarkable recovery shot, like a Bubba Watson in the straw. Or Phil Mickelson, where they have to hit it 245 with a four iron. He is so measured the entire time. It's like. It's like watching Joe Montana play football without the violence. And, you know, you got a guy like Jordan Spieth who's always in trouble off the tee and always hitting recovery shots. Mickelson famously always doing that. And you're going, oh, he's a magician. Sevy by Aeros. Oh, he's a magician. Well, he's a magician because he put himself in a bad place. Chevrolet doesn't do that. It's like, oh, he's in the first cut. Wow. What's wrong with him? Meanwhile, Rory's hitting a ball in the rough and finds out there's a ball underneath his ball. Bonus ball. That was crazy, dude. That was so weird. It was. He's in the rough. How would you like to be the. That. That there's a guy who probably played that hole who knows how long ago, and he's like, you know, I lost. I lost my ball on the 14th, kind of in that same area. And then Rory hits the. His shot, and that other ball pops up, and I'm like, oh, my gosh, yes. Todd, wouldn't it be helpful? I know you don't need a Bad guy, like wrestling. But if he was a little bit cocky or a little bit arrogant like DeChambeau used to be, where you can kind of be rooting against him for those that aren't Scheffler fans to go, I can't wait to see this guy finally lose and get embarrassed after all these wins, how he's beaten everybody by several strokes. Well, I don't know. Do you want a villain? I think you need one. Tour guys or the villains. Well, you're not going to get it from him. He's not a villain. He's just. He's sort of like Andy Griffith, you know, from Mayberry. He's just a nice. He's a nice sheriff. That's all we need. Who do you think you are in jail? That's what we need Shefford to say now. Yeah, that. That's not going to happen. He's just a nice guy. He sees the sheriff of Mayberry and he'll put you behind bars. And then he'll let you out. He'll feed you lunch, maybe bring you over for dinner. That's just kind of who he is. Kelly in Kansas. Hi, Kelly. What's on your mind today? I'm fifth of the weekend I have for you. I got to try out my new paddle board that my friend gave me for my first day. Worst of the weekend was realizing that Todd Taylor Fritz gotta go to Wimbledon. That's on my bucket list. Have been to the US Open. But I have a question for you, Dan. Okay. We've been watching leading up to Happy Gilmore 2, and we were watching the Grown up movie. We just wondered if you were the actor that got pushed down the water slide and climbed the gym rope or if you had a stunt double. I was pushed down the slide. I went down the slide. But we did a couple of different takes and they had a stunt double climbing the rope. I mean, I hate to do that to you, Kelly, because that was a pretty hot scene, but that was a stunt double going up the rope. Well, thank you, Dan. That crushes me, you know, knowing that the stunt double. Thank you, guys. Thank you. Thank you. Say, but double is what it was. Yes, Paul. To be fair to you, Dan, you wanted to climb the rope like Tom Cruise and Mission Impossible. I did. They would not let you. Insurance purposes. I did. They did. Yes, of course. Of course. By the way, the premiere for Happy Gilmore is tonight in New York City, but I had to inform Sandler that I would not be there. Let the other celebrities have their moment, and that I wouldn't be there. The movie comes out on Friday. Happy Gilmore too. Perhaps you've heard of it. Buddha in San Francisco. Hi, Buddha. What's on your mind? What up dp? Happy Monday, boys. Nice Lakers lid, Marvin. Dan, you add the dog days of summer on top of no week of DP and you get not good. But my, my sports show Binky is back and I couldn't be happier. Best of the weekend dance. The MLB All Star weekend. I mean on a whole, I mean it was appropriate, very entertaining. The uniforms were back. Inappropriate. And then listening to the two hitters Kershaw face fully miked up was absolute gold. I mean I could have watch that for an hour. It's a must watch if you haven't seen that. Listening to him get upset with Smallty because he doesn't throw a cutter in mid wind up was both hilarious and awesome. And worse for the worst of the weekend, the amount of like BS hot takes that get thrown out on air, it's kind of cringy at this time of the year, Dan. I mean I have a. It's just kind of, it's, it's, it's too much at some times. But I have a question for you, Dan. Can you confirm for me that you didn't in fact receive your sign Magnum of sea smoke that I brought to you at Lake Tahoe? Because my friends were busting my, my chops for that. The big German drove it home because I couldn't take it with me on the flight. And the big German had the TV truck and I said, I need you to store this and take it back. So it is back. It is in the man cave. And thank you again for that, you know, the Kershaw moment with the big dumper. That was great. Cal Raleigh. And then he goes into the dugout and I think he's saying, you know, suck it dumper. After he got him out. It's fun. I think if the players, you know, here was the. One of the problems that I had with the All Star Game. A lot of your players left and then you had this home run, this swing off there at the end of the All Star Game. And that's where you're going, wait a minute, who are these guys? Because you didn't have the big names trying to win the All Star Game. That was a little bit of a bummer. But I remember that there were, there was a time when it would be five and dive. It'd be five innings and then guys would leave the All Star Game. They just leave the building Shower and go. And. And I would hope that. I mean, I. I get it. You know, it's the All Star break, but still, if you're there, stay there. That's all. Make it. Make it a team effort. How? You don't know how many times you're going to be named to the All Star Game, and every time should, you know, Kershaw got an opportunity one more time, you know, savor it. That's all. Yeah, Paul Kershaw was so good on the mound. When he's mic'd up, I thought he'd be talking between pitches. He's watching the signs on. The catcher goes, oh, he wants a curveball again. All right, I'll give it to him. And he's. As he's in his windup, he goes, here it comes. And he's like, narrating his own pitch. And the next one, he goes, all right, fastball. I'm hitting 91 on this one. Yeah, boys. And then he throws it. And he's talking during the delivery, not just in between the pitches. It was gold. Yeah, I like that. It was fun. Chris in Syracuse. Hi, Chris. Hey, thanks, Dan. Hey. On Scotty Scheffler, you know, he's kind of like Matt Damon in Rounders, just methodical. Check, check, check. And in your open, you mentioned he doesn't like to talk. I don't know if he's private or shy. It seems like win or lose, he doesn't say much. And I always remember, one of my favorite things Tony Dungy ever told you was his mom gave him some advice. She said, when you win, say a little, and when you lose, say less. And he definitely listens to that. And a quick best and worst, and it's a combination. Dan, I'm torn on it, and I'm curious what your opinion is. I heard this weekend that. That Brian Kelly put a million dollars of his own personal money into the nil coffer for lsu. And part of me thinks, you know, wow, it's really generous. What a commitment to a school football program, you know, commitment to winning. And then another part of me thinks it's a dangerous precedent to set the. Because the coaches who can afford to give that much money are already at programs that have a ton of money, and it just creates a bigger gap between the haves and the have nots. Yeah, I. I saw that. I didn't read enough about that. But, yeah, Brian Kelly putting up his money. I mean, if you want to say to these coaches who make, you know, 12, $14 million, how about we Give half of that to Nil. How about we. How about we do that? Half your salary in the collective here, and that will ensure that you have a good season and continue to make this kind of money. Gus in LA. Hi, Gus. Welcome back. Good morning, Mr. Patrick. Hope you and the boys are doing well. Happy premiere week, Mr. Patrick. Look forward to seeing you on the screen on Friday. You know what? It is not good around here. To quote my boy Buddha. It's not good. Not good at all. Dodgers, I believe, are like, 2 and 20 in, like, their last, like, three weeks of play, man, like, taking the All Star break out of it, which was much needed. I don't know what's wrong with these boys, man. They just got swept for the season by the Brewers. Every game they played against the brewers this past season, they have lost. And it's not looking good at all. I don't know if you guys saw it. Just say Clayton Kershaw literally walked off in the middle of his interview with the last thing of him saying, I'm gonna walk away before I ruffle feathers around here. And then he walks off. And from. You guys are just talking about it. Cool, calm collective on the mound in the middle of the All Star Game. Good thing. And then to see someone like that go to, like, walking off at press conference, not, you know, not showing good things around Dodger Town right now. You know, best of best of the weekend, we go back to next week. Hey, man, that All Star Game was actually pretty impressive. It was great and everything. The MLB Draft, though, still the most boring draft in the history of drafts. Your boys, take care. Have a great week. Thank you, Gus. Thank you, guys. You know, the problem with the MLB draft is that, you know, pretty much 99% of those players, you're going to wait three years to see them play in the major leagues. That's the problem. Cooper flag. We get to see him opening night. We'll see him football. If you're, you know, drafting some, you know, Cam Ward, we see him opening, opening game, baseball, it's like, all right, see you later. We'll talk to you in three or four years here. Hockey has a little bit of that as well, but, you know, now you've seen some of these players who were so good that they're ready to go right into the NHL. But as far as a draft goes, it's kind of nice to see. Oh, yeah, I remember that guy from the College World Series. And then three years from now, you go, that's the guy from lsu. Yes, Seaton. It's kind of weird too, to be like, hey, look, you just went in the 15th round. Yeah, well, what was Piazza? The 61st round? Yeah. Couldn't get in that 60th round. Couldn't sneak into that 60s. Wouldn't you think that the NFL would have more rounds than Major League Baseball because you got 53 players on a roster, whereas Major League Baseball, what do you have, 26. Yeah, I remember the NBA used to have, what, eight or nine rounds. Yeah. And that's where, that's where all of a sudden somebody would say, we're going to draft Carl Lewis. We're going to draft Pat Riley. Oh, you know, late eight, eight. Ninth round pick. Yes, Marvin. But the NFL doesn't have a single A, Triple A and Double A. They can't stack up linebackers in the 58th round like an MLB. So I think that's the big difference. Be great if you could draft them their freshman and sophomore year and then stockpile them and, you know, you could have the number one pick and then you could take somebody who's a freshman and then you're going to say when he comes out, he's ours. But you take that risk of how good is he going to be? You know, what, did we stumble upon something here that'd be kind of interesting, you know, play, you know, teams could be paying their player while he's in college. Yes, Paul. Yeah, we talked about this a few months ago in Green Bay. What if you could take Arch Manning a year early and you hold his rights. You don't get any player in this draft. What you take him with the first round, that'd be, that'd be wild. Kind of like I think Larry Bird was taken by the Celtics. Played one more year of college basketball. Yeah, yeah. Red Arbach outsmarted everybody. It's like we're going to take Larry Bird. He's still in college. Yeah, but he's eligible. He's draft eligible. Yes, Marvin. Jeremiah Smith would have been a top five pick. You know what? We'll wait two years for him. The wide receiver from Ohio State. We'll wait a couple years. Oh, yeah, yeah. But then somebody would have taken Christian Hackenberg his freshman year. Josh Rosen. That's not necessary. Maurice Claret. Somebody would have taken him his freshman year using your first round pick. Then all of a sudden that guy gets demoted to second string and you've wasted a first round draft pick on him. I already got drafted. I'm not playing this year. I'm not trying to get hurt. I'm sitting Now, Rocco in Florida. Hey, Rocco, what's on your mind today? Dan Danettes, 5919 so I was just jumping in on the Scotty thing, what you guys were talking about. I want to see your opinions on. I was thinking like not the hype because when Tiger came in, you know, it was, that was when media, everything was first around. And would it be when he retires, do you think? If Scotty surpasses all the stats and everything, would it be like Ovechkin because of that? It was still celebrated, but it wasn't as much the hype. And then also I want to throw in, if I could compare him to someone else, I'd say maybe the joker. He's just good at what he does and he just goes out and does it. He's not worried about anything else. Yeah. And look, it's the time of year where you're kind of searching for things to talk about and then things become bigger because there's nothing really to talk about. You're trying to bring football in, baseball, the dog days. This stands out because Scotty won again and he's won three of the four majors. He's 29 years of age. And I think that's why it's, it's standing out a little bit more than it would have if, let's say this happened in mid August or happened in April. Other things to talk about. Let's see.

There are many versions of what happened in 1969 when a young Ted Kennedy drove a car into a pond and left a woman behind to drown. There's a famous headline, I think, in the New York Daily News, it's Teddy Escapes Blonde drowns. And in a strange way, right, that sort of tells you the story really became about Ted's political future, Ted's political hopes. Will Ted become president? Kappaquiddick is a story of a tragic death and how the Kennedy machine took control. And he's not the only Kennedy to survive a scandal. The Kennedys have lived through disgrace, affairs, violence, you name it. So is there a curse? Every week we go behind the headlines and beyond the drama of America's royal family. Listen to United States of Kennedy on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. American history is full of wise people. Walt Whitman said something like, you know, 99.99% of war is diarrhea and 1% is glory. Those Founding Fathers were gossipy AF, and they love to cut each other down. I'm Bob Crawford, host of American History Hotline, the show where you send us your questions about American history. And I find the answers, including the nuggets of wisdom our history has to offer. Hamilton pauses and then he says, the greatest man that ever lived was Julius Caesar. And Jefferson writes in his diary, this proves that Hamilton is for a dictator based on corruption. My favorite line was what Neil Armstrong said. It would have been harder to fake it than to do it.

In 2020, a group of young women in a tidy suburb of New York City found themselves in an AI fueled nightmare. Someone was posting photos. It was just me naked. Well, not me, but me with someone else's body parts on my body parts that looked exactly like my own. I wanted to throw up. I wanted to scream. It happened in Levittown, New York. But reporting the series took us through the darkest corners of the Internet and to the front lines of a global battle against deepfake pornography. This should be illegal, but what is this? This is a story about a technology that moving faster than the law and about vigilantes trying to stem the tide. I'm Margie Murphy. And I'm Olivia Carville.

Scotty Scheffler is awesome or an issue right now. 91% of the audience have him as awesome. Yeah, yeah. I think Issue is a strong word. I think sustained greatness is great for any sport. I think that's really the important part. I don't know when we started expecting more out of our athletes that it wasn't just your performance. It was. Yeah, but. But it still feels like we're a, a style over substance society. You know, a lot of the shows that we watch, like how deep are some of these shows like Love island or the Kardashians that are big hits when you go, boy, but they got style. But there's no substance to that. I don't know. I guess that's trickled into sports, but not all sports. This is an individual sport, and I think you're watching somebody and you're waiting for something dramatic to happen. If this was the Ryder cup and Scotty Scheffler's a part of the Ryder cup, then we'll be excited. And he might share his personality more in a teen setting. But as far as individual. And they don't like to get out of their routines. There's certain players who play with passion, emotion in all sports. Other players famously are, you know, cool under fire. You know, Joe Montana famously pointing out that that's John Candy in the stands before leading the Niners to a Super bowl winning drive against the Bengals. You know, Tom Brady was fiery, but when he was under fire, he was pretty cool, calm and collected. We see this with coaches. Sometimes coaches are very demonstrative. Other coaches are very chill. You know, the. They kind of flatline a little bit there. Let me get a couple more phone calls in here. David in Ohio. Hi, David. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan. And the Dan has welcome back from vacation. Hope you guys had a great one. I'll start off with worst of the weekend, had the flu the whole weekend, which sucked. But best of the weekend, watching the open Championship, seeing Scotty win. And I recovered in my sleep number bed, which my sleep number is 55. And it really helped me get back into, get back to normal. So appreciate that. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Dave. Little product placement there. We appreciate that. Dustin in Alabama. Hi, Dustin. What's on your mind today? Good morning. Glad to be back on the show. I got a kind of a stat of the day, if you will. If you recall, I called in a couple weeks back, told a quick story about my son birthday film Sunday of the Masters. Well, I did a little bit of research and you know, next year will be Scotty Scheffler's first attempt at the Grand Slam and it will Be the Sunday of the US Open that year. Shinnecock will fall on his 30th birthday. So that might be some divine intervention there. Also, in the year 2045, my young son, who I skipped the Masters for years and years ago, his 30th birthday will fall on the Sunday of the Masters. So the hopes are that maybe we will be talking about him that same year. My birthday. Preachy. You'll like this. My birthday will be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Roll Tide. Thank you. Thank you, Dustin. Love the numerology. Thank you. Yeah. Your birthday is the same as Brad Farms. Todd. 10, 1069. Same day, same month, same year. I don't know if you've been following. Oh, okay. All right. I forgot about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 is kind of cool. People are saying another person we should put on this list of reluctant superstars, and it's funny that we missed him. Is Barry Sanders, the most electrifying running back, arguably of all time, with the highlights and a guy who wasn't interested off the field. And you know that better than anybody. He's the most polar or, you know, on the field, it was superstar. Yeah, but he wasn't involved in championships. He was just a great player. I mean, they weren't good teams. I think when, you know, like, Mahomes is winning Super Bowls or, you know, those guys who are there, I don't know if somebody's saying, boy, I wish Jalen Hurts had a personality. I mean, he's. He's been great for the Eagles, but, like, we pick and choose who we want to. Okay, Mike Trout's not interesting. He's a great player. Is Shohei Ohtani. He's just a great player. I don't know if anybody's saying, you know, I wish he had a little more personality. He doesn't do interviews, but we. We look at him differently than we do Mike Trout. I don't know. Does Aaron Judge go say. Do we look at him go, you know, he can use a little more. More personality. So it. We're. We pick and choose with some of these athletes. Yes, Todd, but Aaron Judge, at least it's on the Yankees. If you have no personality and you're on a team with no personality like the Angels, that's a double whammy. Then you're really in the middle of nowhere. That's interesting there. That's a shot. Thank you, Todd. By the way, my Charlotte Hornets summer league champs. How do you hold that for 45 minutes? Come on, now, Con canymple. Let's Go. Yeah. All right. Okay. Free the Knipple. Five of the previous 11 Summer League championship teams made the playoffs the following season. Oh, let's keep an eye on my Charlotte Hornets here. I'm not saying that, you know, they're. They're going to win anything, but they may win our hearts by making the playoffs. But congrats to the Charlotte Hornets. Yes. Marvin. They'd be much better if they go back to the original uniforms with Larry Johnson, Alonzo Mourning. Greatest uniforms in history of basketball. Come on. DP though. We're having a good day. We're having a good day. Those. No. Teal is overrated. Teal is overrated. Yes, Paul. And now the run the Charlotte Hornets are on. They're not changing anything. They're going to stick with whatever's working. You win a summer league title, you don't change anything. That's what my grandfather taught me. It's like the Commanders. They're on a roll. Yeah. Yeah. Golden State in 2013, San Antonio, 2015, the Bulls, 2016, the Blazers, 2018, the Cavs, 2023. Memphis. Won the summer league title one year, didn't he? That was 2019. They didn't make the playoffs that following season. Alrighty. We'll talk some football. TJ what got paid? What talked to Albert Brewer, the Monday morning quarterback, and the possibility of Nick Saban coming back to Coach Hour 2 on this Monday. Back after this.
