How did Jesse end up golfing and BBQ-ing with Wendel Clark in Muskoka?
Either you like hockey or you are wrong.
Oh, you're using that? Says my mug. That's awesome. Oh, that Facebook mug. No. I'm born in August and I don't like to be messed with. I'm an associate producer and a badass.
I used to get that a lot when I was at CBC. I miss Facebook t-shirts. I used to see them a lot at the racetrack. Whenever I go to a racetrack, there'd be Facebook t-shirts everywhere.
Not the swanky racetrack. You're not talking about the Kentucky Derby.
No, no. I'm talking about like Watkins Glen International, baby. Yeah, it's still a great track. NASCAR track. They used to do F1 there, but still, but still. You get the boys who are like, wow, that's a great looking t-shirt. I'll click on that link on my Facebook account. Anyway, Jesse is going to be our lead story today, which is rare. We don't often make ourselves the lead story, but Jesse golfed with some legends yesterday. One of them known as the preeminent tough guy and the first overall pick the Leafs ever had.
Sorry, I got some dust on this for you. Already. This is a signed helmet by Wendell Clark. Now, Jesse, you got to golf with and eat barbecue from Wendell Clark.
Do you have pictures?
People might know this. Yeah, I'll talk through what is kind of like my slideshow. Here, I'll just pull up pictures as we go. And when they come up, you can bring them up there, Hayden. But yeah, that's me with Wendell Clark there on the course yesterday in Muskoka. And it goes back to Rachel's Raiders and Easter Seals. Because Pete Monroe of the Canadian Beer League, the league we both play in, he was at another Easter Seals event. Not the one we play in, but a different one. And you know, at all those charity hockey events, they have these auctions. Yep. And he bid on an auction to play golf with Wendell Clark. And last minute, his wife can't go. And he's like, Jesse, I know you like golf. Come play golf with Wendell Clark with me.
That's so awesome. So that's how this thing happened. So I drive up to Muskoka. We get to play 18 at the beautiful golf course up there. Wendell plays with all of the groups because it was about 40 ish guys there, men and women, all people. They're all there and there's different groups. So he started at like 18 and he'd play backwards. So every group would cross him at some point and play a couple of holes. So he would play multiple holes and all that stuff. And it was a lot of fun. And then you can remove that one so I can bring up a couple more. He looks happy to see you, Jesse. So he was. Yes. But I did tell him what I did. And he had a I'll call it a blank look on his face in that I don't think he was too happy with what I did for my job.
Oh, you talk that you're in media.
Yeah. I think that's fair to say that. On days like this, I don't think he's expecting members of the press to be there to report back on his charity golf events. But here we are. Here I am talking about it. Sorry. How bad was his swing? Let's run him out of town.
What stories and impressions did Wendel Clark share about players, pay and hosting charity events?
It was a lot of fun. So in the golf day, it included a boat ride across Lake Joseph. Anybody in Muskoka area knows Lake Joseph. Excuse me. It's Lake Joe. Lake Joe. Sorry. So this is a part of the boat ride when we were when we were leaving there. Oh, yeah. Oh, wait, you guy. This is the boat ride exiting what is Wendell Clark's cottage on Lake Joe. Because the call also included a boat ride over Lake Joe to Wendell's cottage. Sick. Where he barbecued for all of us with his family there. His wife was there. His daughter was there. And we got to spend a little afternoon on his cottage there. So I'll show you some more scenes from there. That's a decent little life there, Jesse. So yeah, not bad to spend a Monday.
Here he is. This is my favorite. I love this picture. Literally flipping burgers for us. There's a thumbs up from Wendell Clark. What an absolute beauty. This man. Yeah. Oh, he's a treasure. Yeah. So let's get into that part. Because everything you think about like... This guy is a good person to have as an ambassador of beliefs. You want to meet your heroes. This is the guy you want to meet and talk to for an extended period of time because he'll give you that time of day.
