Previously on The Tony Kornheiser Show.
There's a story going around that Donald Trump has made a big deal out of that he eats pudding with his hands, with his fingers.
What?
Yes.
What?
Yes. There's a story that he was on a plane traveling somewhere and he had one of those jello pudding cups.
Yeah.
And he ate it with three fingers, not a spoon.
Well, that is weird. I mean, I'm not saying it's not fun, but I don't know that I would do that in public so somebody could see me do that. The Tony Kornheiser Show is on now. It's a disqualifier for being president, even putting your fingers in public. Private. OK, not in public. This is our special Memorial Day show. And you're asking, well, why would you do a show on Memorial Day? Don't you always play in a golf tournament? And the answer is, I thought I did, and I thought we always had Memorial Day off. But I was told we don't have Memorial Day off, and we haven't for four years. And so, Michael, you... Start playing Michael's music.
This is his entrance. Yeah.
You're going to play in the tournament for me.
For the last two years, I've now played in your place in the Memorial Day tournament.
And you've won shop credit with Team Coco. Oh, correct. Yeah. So, I expect you to do that today. I'm entering the net division. Yeah. That's right. You're going to play from the whites. Playing from the whites? Walking only? They just got the email? Yeah. So, you're going to be fine. I'm ready. You're going to be fine playing from the whites. Yeah. In preparation for that, Michael and I had a most lovely day on Saturday. We played with Alan and Andrew Bubis. Played in about three hours and 40 minutes. Um... I played well for me. I did. I got the ball in the air a bunch of times. I wasn't terrible. What did you shoot? Did we round par? Yeah, a couple over.
What happened during Tony’s Memorial Day golf games and who joined him on the course?
Yeah, something like that. A lot of really good iron shots. Hadn't played in a long time, so that was really good. We had a lovely time, and then Michael and Liz brought the boys over. Are you going to talk about what happened to you on number 12? What happened? When I was in the sand on three or four different shots and then picked it up and threw it out. Yeah, no, I had a bad day. That's a bad hole for me. Bad hole. Let's remember all the good shots. Yeah, that was a bad hole for me. But I felt I played pretty well. I wasn't in a tournament, so it didn't really matter. I just said, okay, I can't do this. I've got to get better in the sand. And by better, I mean I've just got to be able to get it out, which I can't do at the moment.
Then they brought the kids over and Michael grilled. For his family and left the leftovers for me.
Grilled for my family. I told you, I called you the night before saying, I'm going to purchase enough foods that you can eat with us. But I understand adults might not want to eat at the first seating with the kids.
Yeah, a little early, but it was, it was lovely. It was just a lovely day. And although the boys are, well, I don't know if. The captain is afraid of Chessie, but the others, Bootsy and the Hammer, are afraid of Chessie. But Chessie was outside the whole time. Or if she came inside, she had Frisbees in her mouth, so she couldn't put a child's body in her mouth. And everybody seemed to be good with that.
Yeah, I'm holding the captain in my arms, who is 11 months and is now beginning to take four, five, six steps, walking with confidence, and is just so happy to reach out to anyone. Even mistakenly reached out for you for a quick hold. I held him. But...
And then let him go.
Every time the dog barks, you're like, what's wrong? What's wrong? I don't know. He's less than a year older. That's kind of a scary noise.
Yeah.
How did Tony describe his rounds with Michael, Kevin Sheehan and the ‘six keys to the front nine’?
No, I understand. But it'll get better as time goes on. Then yesterday, I played again. I played with Kevin Sheehan. Oh. I have to tell you about this. I have to tell you about Kevin. How many bets? There was just a few bets. Six keys to the front nine. Yeah. It was within one hole. Driving game. Long iron play. It was within one hole. Short game. So often that he couldn't press. I'll tell you what happened.
