CALIFORNIA LIFE. I'M YOUR HOST AUBREY AKINO. THANKS FOR TUNING IN WITH US
THIS MORNING .
WE HAVE SOME GREAT GUESTS LINED
UP FOR YOU TODAY AND IT SWING
RIGHT INTO IT.
AMERICA'S FAVORITE MINI GOLF
COMPETITION SERIES IS READY TO
SWING BACK INTO ACTION FOR ITS
THIRD SEASON AND BEFORE HE
HEADS TO THE GREEN HOLY MOLY
COMMENTATOR JOE TESTATOR IS
HERE TO GIVE US A PLAY BY PLAY
OF THE NEW SEASON.
HEY THERE, JOE.
HEY THERE, AUBREY.
I'M LAUGHING JUST THINKING WHAT
THESE TURP PEOPLE JUST SEND TO
EVERYBODY HERE SAYING AMERICA'S
FAVORITE SPRING MINI GOLF SHOW
THE FACT THAT WE HAVE AN
EXTREME MINI GOLF SHOW TAKING
TWO HOURS OF PRIME TIME ON
ABC IS MIND BLOWING, ISN'T IT?
WHAT ARE WE DOING FOR AMERICA?
IT IS A VERY WACKY SHOW I HAVE
TUNED IN YOU WE'RE FROM THE BAY
AREA ORIGINALLY WHERE
BIG GOLDEN STATE FANS BIG STEPH
CURRY FANS.
SO WHEN YOU PUT THIS PROJECT
OUT THERE IT WAS A MUST SEE FOR
MY FAMILY.
BUT FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE HOLY
MOLY FOR THE FOLKS THAT REALLY
NEED TO TUNE IN?
WELL, I MEAN EVERYBODY LOVES
MINI GOLF.
MINI GOLF IS ACCESSIBLE AND
MULTIGENERATIONAL CERTAINLY
NOTICE MINI GOLF.
THE CONCEPT THAT STEPH CURRY
AND THE ABC EXECUTIVES HAD WAS
LET'S TAKE MINI GOLF AND LET'S
SUPERSIZE LET'S WONKA
WONDERMENTS IN IT AND THEY
BUILT AN EXTREME MINI GOLF
COURSE WHERE CONTESTANTS YOU
DON'T JUST PUTT THROUGH THE
WINDOW.
YOU KNOW THE WINDOW IS SO
BIG THAT YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH
IT YOURSELF AND YOU COULD GET
HIT BY THE SPINNING BLADES AND
YOU COULD GET BASHED AND FALL
TWELVE INTO FREEZING COLD
WATER.
SO YOU KNOW EVERYTHING IS
BEYOND EXPECTATIONS WITH HOLY
MOLY BUT THE BEAUTY OF HOLY
MOLY AND AUBREY I REALLY
BELIEVE THIS IS WHAT IS
NECESSARY AND THIS IS WHY THIS
SHOW HAS BECOME SO POPULAR INTO
SEASON THREE IN PRODUCTION FOR
SEASON FOUR IS THAT IT'S
JOYFUL, IT'S LAUGH LONG.
YES.
IT'S A COMPETITION SHOW WITH A
QUARTER MILLION DOLLARS ON THE
LINE.
YES.
LINE. YES. SOMETHING THAT'S RELATABLE WITH
MANY GOLF BUT EVERYBODY'S
HAVING FUN.
ROBERT AND I JUST SIT UP THERE
AND WE LAUGH THE WHOLE TIME AND
EVERYBODY CAN WATCH IT TOGETHER
SO THAT JOYFULNESS REALLY COMES
THROUGH.
AND I THINK IF YOU TUNE IN
THURSDAY NIGHT ON ABC AT EIGHT
,YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THAT
YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A LOT
OF FUN AND THAT'S NEEDED RIGHT
NOW.
OH YEAH FOR SURE.
SO HOLY MOLY 3D INCLUDING NOW
WHEN I'VE BEEN WATCHING THIS
I'M ALMOST WATCHING WITH MY
EYES COVERED BECAUSE SOME
OF THAT LOOKS PRETTY PAINFUL
WHEN THEY WHACKED AND THROWN IN
THE WATER AND I'M JUST SO
AMAZED THAT THE CONTESTANTS GET
UP AND CONTINUE ON.
I MEAN I THINK THAT'S MORE
AMAZING.
I MEAN IT'S FUNNY BUT IT'S NOT
FUNNY.
OBVIOUSLY IT NEVER CEASES TO
AMAZE WHAT PEOPLE WILL DO TO
WIND UP ON NATIONAL TV.
RIGHT.
YOU NEVER CEASES TO AMAZE.
SO IF I SAID TO YOU HEY AUBREY,
I NEED YOU TO PUT THIS OFF AND
THEN I NEED YOU TO SPRINT AS
FAST AS YOU CAN DOWN A LITTLE
NARROW 12 INCH PATH OF TURF ALL
LINED BY SEVEN PORTA POTTIES
AND AT SOME POINT ONE OF THOSE
PORTA DOORS IS GOING TO OPEN
UP AND SMASH WINDOWS AND SEND
YOU FLYING INTO MURKY WATER.
YOU WOULD SAY TO ME YOU'RE
CRAZY, I'M NOT DOING IT.
I'M GOING TO SIT HERE AND I CAN
CONTINUE DOING MY WONDERFUL
GOOD MORNING , MY WONDERFUL
CALIFORNIA LIVE SHOW HERE I'M
GOING TO BE THE PERFECT TV
ANCHOR.
YOU WOULDN'T DO THAT.
EVERYBODY DOES IT AND GET UP
AND DO MORE AND THEY TAKE MORE
PUNISHMENT AND THEY DO IT AGAIN
.
WELL, HOW DOES CALLING THE PLAY
BY PLAY GIVING SOME OF THE
COLOR COMMENTARY FOR THIS GAME
COMPARED TO THE OTHER SPORTS
YOU'VE CALLED IN YOUR CAREER?
THIS IS NOTHING LIKE DOING
MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL OR
PRIMETIME COLLEGE FOOTBALL OR
CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING WHERE YOU
HAVE TO BE SO SERIOUS AND
PREPARED AND YOU HAVE TO
DELIVER TO THE AIR YOU LIKE
SPORTS FANS THIS IS NOTHING BUT
REACT AND LAUGH AND HAVE A
BLAST WITH ROB RIGGLE.
YOU KNOW THAT'S WHAT WE DO SO
IF YOU SIT BACK AND YOU WATCH
HOLY MOLY, YOU ALREADY KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE GETTING.
YEAH.
YES.
YEAH. YES. THE GOLF IS REAL COMPETITION.
YES.
THERE'S A QUARTER MILLION
DOLLARS ON THE LINE SO IT PLAYS
LIKE BIG TIME NICE SHINY
NETWORK GAME SHOW.
BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY IT'S
A BUDDY COMEDY.
IT'S ABOUT LAUGHING TOO LONG.
IT'S ABOUT HAVING SO MUCH FUN
AND EVERYBODY USED IN ON THE
JOKE.
YOU KNOW JOE, I HAVE TO TELL
YOU ABOUT ONE OF MY GOOD
GIRLFRIENDS THAT I GREW UP
WITH.
SHE'S DONE SOME OF THE CASTING
FOR THE SHOW IN PREVIOUS
SEASONS BUT I WANT TO ASK YOU
FROM YOUR PERSPECTIVE HOW MUCH
OF IT IS SKILL AND HOW MUCH
OF IT IS PERSONAL THAT CARRIES
THEM THROUGH, YOU KNOW, TO MOVE
ON?
WELL, WE LIKE HAVING GREAT
PERSONAL NEEDS BUT IF YOU CAN'T
PUT YOU'RE NOT GOING TO SURVIVE
ON HOLY MOLY, YOU HAVE TO BE
ABLE TO PUT THE OTHER THING YOU
HAVE TO BE ABLE TO DO IS YOU
HAVE TO SURVIVE THESE
OBSTACLES.
SO YOU COULD HAVE AND THIS HAS
HAPPENED WE HAVE OFTEN ON THE
SHOW PROFESSIONAL GOLF.
OH YEAH.
WE PLAYED MAJOR COLLEGE GOLF
GOLFERS WHO WIN IN THE WORLD
SERIES OF PUTTING PROFESSIONAL
TOURNAMENTS, GOLFERS WHO HAVE
BEEN ON THE PGA TOUR, THE PGA
TOUR, THE MINOR SATELLITE
TOWARDS YOU COME ON.
BUT IF YOU CAN'T HANG ON TO A
ZIP LINE THAT'S GOING AT HIGH
SPEED AND SLAMMING YOU INTO A
POLE, YOU'RE GOING TO STROKE
PENALTY FOR THAT.
SO WE HAVE MAJOR HEY LISTEN, WE
HAD A GRANDMOTHER IN HER LATE
60S WIN ON THE SHOW.
I GET IT.
YEAH, ANYBODY CAN WIN IF YOU'RE
GOOD ENOUGH PUTTER WHO CAN
SURVIVE THE OBSTACLES THAT'S
YOU SHOULD GET OUT THERE NEXT
YEAR.
THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO DO.
WE MARK THAT DOWN.
I'M GOING TO GO HEAD TO HEAD
WITH YOU.
JOE WILL HAVE THE CELEBRITY
VERSION OF HOLY MOLY, THANKS SO
MUCH.
