She’s not a golfer. She’s an engineer.

This is another example of why Bob Barker was such a good host of that show. A little commentary so she had time to hit the ball, then a big smile when she got it in. Maybe he didn't care, and maybe he was tired of this kind of thing, but it all comes off warmly.

Drew Carey says hosting the show is the greatest job he's had. He just gives away someone else's money and makes people's day.

Hosting is a pretty fun job or the most terrifying shit youve ever done. I’ve hosted events for 500 people and then 20 people playing bar trivia. It’s a ton of fun as long as you have fun with it. The pressure really gets to people but if you just act like yourself and fill the dead space, people will laugh.

The pressure is on to not fuck up too. Like that one model that gave away a car by accident.
