and if they guess how many golf courses are in that state within a 1000 it’s another bonus

If memory serves me right I believe COVID killed what was going to be a Strapped Detroit ish starting at Rackham. @SpartanButters would have more inside info on that.

Yep. And the round at Rackham was supposed to be at Maxamania. But COVID hit, everything got pushed back a year, and that plan was scraped.

Strapped: Philly would get nice and grungy. Lot of publics in the surrounding areas and a big blue-collar vibe
MIght want to wait until the Cobbs Creek reno is done. That would be cool though.

The minute “Lawyers, Guns, and Money” comes on, if you didn’t say “Fuck yeah” or some version of that phrase out loud - you’re a sociopath.
Best use of music in any NLU content - and that’s saying something considering the BMore and Nola Strapped seasons…

Given the podcast this week, where it was clear everyone was as charmed by this as we all were and that they could give a shit about sanctions, but I do appreciate the entertainment involved. I have absolutely zero doubt that whatever Strapped becomes, it will be awesome.

In my mind, @Randy had this scene in the back of his mind when deciding to pose the question in the Waffle House (obviously the C-Suite is the UN).

I really enjoyed that Soly didn’t get a screener. It’s cool to me that he got to see that raw and unfiltered as well.
And it says a lot to me that he’s able to fully step back from the process and let a big piece of content come out without his eyes on it, and trust the team that it’s the right call.

I’ve started doing this thing since the finale where whenever something trivial goes wrong (someone’s unhappy at work, forgot something at the store, whatever…), I just say to myself “there’s no debtor’s prison, we can’t go to jail”.
And let me tell you guys something, it’s working wonders.

My wife and I use this one occasionally when we’re discussing household finances. The debtors prison remark will make a fine replacement.

Therapy? Expensive and time consuming.
Telling yourself “there’s no debtor’s prison, we can’t go to jail.” Free and immediately relieving.

That is brilliant!
Here’s what they should do -
$500
They don’t have to factor in travel to and from the destination or a rental car (if any).
Three rounds of golf, two nights of lodging, and all costs for meals/drinks comes out of the $500.
The second round is a “money round,” where they can win or lose money based on a quota points scoring format.
I think that would make for a great series going forward. Just my two cents.

A lot of talk about the budget and whatnot. I think a random variable budget could be quite fun. Have Randy/Neil spin a wheel at the beginning of each season. The wheel has amounts from $500-$1500 in $250 increments and they get what they get. So that keeps the spontaneity of the show so they aren’t planning big for weeks they get a big budget. You get that spur of the moment joy that we saw in season 10. It still provides for the down-and-dirty scraping by on $500 that puts them in some odd but funny positions without it feeling like a drag that pangs at every season.

If we’re talking creative punishments, I’d love to see a season of Strapped where the C-Suite banishes the Strapped boys into “the wilderness” with survival guide @Cody, and force them to take the Coyne route. Seeing @Randy and @MerchCzar backpacking to a few courses all in the same general area and camping overnight in between rounds would make for some prime Fall/Winter content!
