00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:18.000
I'm your host, Brett Gilliland. Today, I've got Kevin Doughtery

00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.000
with me. Kevin, how you doing, my man?

00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:23.000
I'm doing great. How about you? I'm doing

00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:25.000
great. I'm here in Dallas, Texas. Right?

00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:28.000
Yes, sir. It's where home is, and finally

00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:30.000
getting to spend some time at home. I

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.000
mean, Kevin after the season ended,

00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:35.000
we've been on the road everywhere. So it's

00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:38.000
definitely really nice just to be home and

00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:39.000
in place.

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:41.000
Nice night at home. Isn't it? Yeah, as

00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:42.000
you'll you'll find, because I think you got

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:44.000
a little one. So as those kids get

00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:45.000
bigger, even if you're, if you are at

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.000
home, sometimes you're not at home. So,

00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:50.000
well, listen, man. You are Kevin Doughtery. You

00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.000
are a PGA tour,

00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:55.000
player. You know, you're not just a PGA

00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:57.000
tour cardholder. You are PGA tour player, my

00:00:57.000 --> 00:00:59.000
man. And so, you know, we go way

00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:02.000
back two years ago. We got them elevated

00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:04.000
together. You look like a golfer. I think

00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:05.000
had my sticks with me. I had the

00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:08.000
privilege of playing Muirfield village. You were, at

00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:10.000
a golf tournament, I think, at the Corn

00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:12.000
Ferry and made for the qualifier, if I'm

00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:14.000
not mistaken. And We struck up a conversation.

00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:16.000
We ended up being next door neighbors. We

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.000
started phoning each other on Instagram, and now

00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:20.000
here we are at a podcast. You just

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:21.000
qualified for the PGA tour.

00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:23.000
But before we dive into any of that

00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:26.000
stuff, man, I wanna start for our listeners,

00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:29.000
about a massive lesson that I've learned, through

00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:31.000
this whole thing. So I'm gonna brag on

00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:33.000
Kevin for a minute. I, reached out to

00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:36.000
Kevin. Kevin was very nice, gave us of

00:01:36.000 --> 00:01:38.000
his time. We did a podcast. Well,

00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:40.000
Brett had a computer that was a little

00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:42.000
bit older. And,

00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:43.000
my,

00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:46.000
technology, let's say, wasn't great. And it happened

00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:47.000
on a couple guest, and I didn't think

00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:48.000
much of it. I thought it was just

00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:50.000
a rainy day. It's bad wifi, but it

00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:52.000
really was bad on our time.

00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:55.000
And I got off. I was so embarrassed

00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:56.000
I'm like, my god. I hope I can

00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:58.000
idiot. You know, I've had all these guests

00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:00.000
on. And now here, Kevin has to give

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:01.000
us his time. He thinks I'm this terrible

00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:03.000
person. And and in our minds, we build

00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:05.000
these fears. And the people listen to this,

00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:07.000
I'm sorry to do all the talking, Kevin,

00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:08.000
but we put it in our minds. It

00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:10.000
never blows up to our magnitude that we

00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:12.000
believe it to be. Right? A hundred percent.

00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:13.000
And

00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:15.000
I said, you know what, man, I gotta

00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:17.000
reach out to this guy on Instagram and

00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:18.000
apologize

00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:20.000
and, you know, tell him I was terrible

00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.000
as a host and

00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:24.000
kinda eat crow, and then humbly asked him

00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:26.000
if he'd even be open to doing it

00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:28.000
again. And here's what I learned, ladies and

00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:30.000
gentlemen. He said, yes.

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:32.000
Let's do it. And I'm like, you know,

00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:34.000
in life, we put people on pedestals. Here's

00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:37.000
a PGA tour player. He's gonna say, no.

00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:39.000
What an idiot Brett is? And all those

00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:41.000
fears never came true. So, Kevin, you are

00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:43.000
the man. I appreciate it. Sorry for the

00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:44.000
long intro, but I think it says a

00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:46.000
lot about you and your character and who

00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:46.000
you are.

00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:49.000
Yeah. No. Definitely. Mean,

00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.000
just because of what I do for a

00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:54.000
living doesn't change who I am as a

00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:57.000
person. And I'm technically, I'm at fault as

00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:59.000
well. I mean, I completely

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:03.000
I completely whipped our makeup interview

00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:06.000
We're back from Kevin on Monday,

00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:09.000
and we had a schedule for Tuesday. And

00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:12.000
about 05:00 on Tuesday, I was going through

00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:13.000
my calendar. I'm like,

00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.000
oh, no. Oh, no.

00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:18.000
Hey. I thought it was the next day.

00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:21.000
And So that's my fault, but now I'm

00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:22.000
glad that we can kind of make it

00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:25.000
work and just kind of both being easygoing.

00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:28.000
I think that's pretty important these days to

00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:30.000
feel. As if a lot of people have

00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:31.000
kind of lost that easygoing,

00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:34.000
just kind of roll with the punches and

00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:36.000
see how everything turns out. Yep. I think

00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:38.000
we both would agree. If if these are

00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.000
our biggest problems in life, we're pretty damn

00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:41.000
lucky, aren't we?

00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:44.000
We're doing okay. Yeah. We're doing just fine.

00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:45.000
So let me give a little backstory here.

00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:47.000
So another thing I wanna talk about, Kevin,

00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:49.000
is, I found in my research to be

00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:51.000
awesome, is and I know you guys talked

00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:53.000
about this on, on the subpar podcast with

00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:55.000
Colton Oss and the sleaze, and those guys

00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:56.000
are hilarious. They're awesome.

00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:58.000
Colts coming on soon. I told you, and

00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:00.000
I've already had the sleaze. So they're good

00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:01.000
guys. But,

00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:03.000
people talk about it, and it it's your

00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:05.000
perseverance. You know, you you almost made it

00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:07.000
on the tour a couple times You know,

00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:09.000
I watched that chip numerous times. It was,

00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.000
you know, an inch from going in and

00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:13.000
and did not go in, which would've got

00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:15.000
your PGA tour card, thirty one years old.

00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:18.000
