I played with Kevin Sheehan. I have to tell you about it. How many bets? There was just a few bets. Six keys to the front nine. Driving game. Long iron play. Short game. So often that he couldn't press. I'll tell you what happened. So first of all, Kevin hits it. You've got to win it on the greens. Kevin kills it off the tee. He kills it. He hits it 250 to 270. Big hitter. Big hitter. Big hitter.

This is General George Washington, and you're listening to The Tony Kornheiser Show.
Tony Kornheiser 0:41
Maybe not 270, but he hits it 250. I mean, he really hits it long. And he steps right up. No practice swing, bang. But from that story, which we didn't get to in that clip, not the most patient putter. He was angry, and he was a five-foot putter, and he didn't even hit the hole with it. So he lost money. All right, we have a wonderful show today. We have a lot of people in studio that we don't usually have. First of all, we have Luke Russert in studio. We're going to talk about Look For Me There, Luke's best-selling book, which I say with a lot of envy, never having had a bestseller myself. I don't think I've sold more than 10 copies of any book that I ever wrote, but I didn't even write them. I did, they were just reprints of them.
Tony Kornheiser 1:17
stories and stuff like that and carol is in the studio carol's in the studio for a limited engagement it's not going to be a disaster because she's not hosting the show it's not it's going to be fine do you need a microphone i'll pass the microphone to mom so and the reason carol is in the studio is because yesterday at calvert woodley in front of the la chisery counter Dan Byrne gave a concert. About how long did he sing? Because Carol went. She left the house and all responsibilities to me. She said, I'm going to see Dan Byrne. How long?
Carol Kornheiser 1:53
He sang for about 15 to 20 minutes.
Tony Kornheiser 1:55
15 or 20. Do you recall any of the songs he sang?
Carol Kornheiser 1:58
A lot of cheese songs.
Tony Kornheiser 2:00
A lot of cheese.
Carol Kornheiser 2:01
La Cheeserie and Victor Weminyama, which thrilled me to death.
Tony Kornheiser 2:08
Victor Rambignano, Victor Rambignano. It's always a crowd favorite. What was the crowd like?
Carol Kornheiser 2:13
Interesting. I had no idea what your fans looked like. That was really one of the second most reason why I went. There are about 15 to 20 people there and they all look normal.
Tony Kornheiser 2:29
And Bobby Gottfried was there.
Carol Kornheiser 2:31
Bobby came in, yeah, second. I knew that he would be there. He's inside the Beltway. Bobby shows up to everything. Bobby did me a great favor. I had to get the nerve up to ask Dan when he was done. I wanted a picture of him. And I said, Bobby, please, here's my camera. Take a picture, please.
Tony Kornheiser 2:50
And I told you before you went, I said, please introduce yourself to Dan Byrne. And you said, really?
Carol Kornheiser 2:56
I said, yes. Yes, because you don't let me out of the house usually.
Tony Kornheiser 3:00
Right.
Carol Kornheiser 3:01
And I said, hi. Hi. I'm Carol Kornheiser, and my husband wanted me to say hi for you. And, you know, I think that Michael Sands was there. He laughed at that.
Tony Kornheiser 3:18
But it was... Well, Michael Sands was definitely there.
Carol Kornheiser 3:20
Yeah, yeah. He stayed in the shadows. Carlos from La Cheeserie Counter said,

What happens when Tony and Carol describe Dan Bern’s surprise performance at Calvert Woodley Liquor?

Carol Kornheiser 3:27
Brought a big platter of cheese and crackers.
Tony Kornheiser 3:29
So they gave away free cheese.
Carol Kornheiser 3:32
And crackers, yes.
Tony Kornheiser 3:34
From Le Cheeserie.
Carol Kornheiser 3:35
Yes.
Tony Kornheiser 3:35
Which again, for people that don't understand this, is about a six foot long counter in the middle of a giant liquor store. It's not an emporium. It's not standalone. People don't come from, well they do come from hundreds of miles away, but none of us understands why.
Carol Kornheiser 3:50
It's a cheese counter. Mostly locals. and Northern Virginia. But it was a lot of fun. And people were there to see Dan. And those like five people who were coming in to buy wine, liquor, whatever, just passed right in front of him.
Tony Kornheiser 4:11
And you found out why he stopped there?
Carol Kornheiser 4:14
He was on his way to the Outer Banks.
Tony Kornheiser 4:18
On vacation or on work?
Carol Kornheiser 4:19
He might have had a gig down there. I don't know.
Tony Kornheiser 4:21
So we just stopped him. Maybe the Who's playing down there, you know? This is something to consider. Dan Byrne has opened for the Who. Yes, he has. And then he sings at a cheese counter and sings a song called Victor Wembanyama. The only lyrics are Victor Wembanyama.
