A show like this that breaks the traditional mold of what golf is or isnt, is exactly why the game is growing like it is. Thank you EAL for showing all sides of the world of golf!
Yooo! I've been cooking 30 years and just got the opportunity of a lifetime as the chef for a public golf course. This job offers 3 things I've never had as a chef: Health Insurance, Retirement, and FREE GOLF!!! I interviewed twice last week, and it's down to me and one other person. They said they would call me today or tomorrow and let me know. I could use some positive vibes please!!!
Good luck to you ! Also, you can have all of my good vibes for the day and until you get the call back. Hopefully they sense your obvious good nature and positive attitude!
That’s fantastic. I was a short order cook in late high school and through University and have a ton of respect for lifelong industy folks. I hope you get it! I’m a housepainter and this video made me look for resort jobs! 😄
Erik, y’all have put out some great content over the years, but this was definitely one of my favorites. Congrats to you and your team for this wonderful piece of storytelling. The respect you have for the people you meet and the way you share their stories is beautiful.
It had me at 9 mins when he's on the front desk! Absolute stitches! A great video showcasing all the hard work which goes unnoticed, but without it - we wouldn't be able to play this great game that we love. To all golf club receptionists, greenskeepers, chefs, all staff etc - thank you.
Thank you Erik! I was raised by parents who work in the service industry. My wife and I are both in the service industry. Down in Corpus Christi/ Port Aransas. We go through tough times as the work is hard because we aim to please, but we also meet some incredible people. I met a gentleman named Patrick last week noticed the Erin Hills logo on his shirt, told him about Lawsonia he will be heading there next summer now! I went to Lawsonia with my wife and son and had the time of our life. Because of your video! Thanks for showing the other side brother!
I admire and appreciate you shining a light on the many hardworking people behind the scenes of every single golf experience that we are blessed to enjoy. Thanks, Erik! ♥️
Ex-greenkeeper and i remember switching the greens to keep the disease free and cutting them by hand. There's a lot more to it than people think but a job i loved more than any other i had in my life.
As someone who changes holes at a golf course for a living, watching Erik do it. Put a smile on my face and it was a pleasure to watch. Erik is the one person I want to meet in the golf industry.
Again another fantastic piece of story telling. I don't believe you could produce this film anywhere else in the world and get the same vibes. Proud to be Irish.🇮🇪
One of the best, if not the best, videos I’ve ever watched on TH-cam. Definitely your best Erik, in my opinion, and I’ve seen em all. Loved it Brother. You should be proud. And I’m the same way I would probably get fired for giving to much stuff away. Lol. Again great video
Erik, you are just such a goofball but seriously enjoy the perspective being presented here. I think golfers need to watch this as a reminder of everything it takes for them to go out there and play. So many people have to contribute in order for you to have a pleasant day before you even wake up.
What an epic challenge! Well done EAL crew and hope to see more of these types of vids, so authentic and great to see all the unsung heros behind our great game & courses.
I recently started a job at a golf course as a greens keeper. All I am doing is bunkers and mowing rough and basic tasks but I love it so far. I came from about a decade of residential and commercial landscaping and feel like i found a whole new career that i enjoy much more. Looking forward to everyday even if they just keep me on bunkers. Just love being on the course and the early shift and getting off early in the day is awesome.
As a country club caddie from the mid 70’s to 2000, you did a nice job. Relax your shoulders, you look like a newbie with your shoulders all scrunched up. And thank god you didn’t carry the huge leather bags we did. You had what we called Sunday bags. Two of those was like a day off!
This was so entertaining to watch. You can tell Erik just spreads joy to those around him, and to the thousands watching the video. Had a smile on through the whole video, great stuff!
Thank you, thank you. Awesome content put together by you and your team. With exception of the jobs in the hotel, this piece rekindled memories of the jobs I had at Nashawtuc Country Club in MA. to help pay my college tuition in the '70's. Must have been some major shrinkage when you took a dip in the water.
This is by far one of best and funniest videos I have watched. Well done for keeping us entertained all the time and for bringing amazing content! Best of luck
I spent my summers in college working at the local golf course and some of those days were unbelievably grueling. Cutting cups at 5am in complete darkness and 95% humidity, edging bunkers and sprinkler heads in the hot sun, weedeating creek banks for days on end. The rare day that i got to just hop on a zero turn and mow rough all day were some of the happiest of my time there. Weirdly, i kind of miss it sometimes
Stumbled on this because of the algorithms, no clue who Erik is or anything but this is amazing. I'm new to golf, and this makes it so exciting. Seems like a blast.
You'd never expect Erik's fantastic golf channel to also be a very sarcastic comedy channel. Had me SLAPPING multiple times. Great stuff. Loved the pivot to some other parts of the world of golf that goes overlooked or unappreciated.
Fantastic video Eric and the team at RGC, had me laughing the whole way through with a big smile all over my face. How fantastic are all the staff and guests for playing along. How bloody good 👌
This was incredible!! Usually my gf will roll her eyes at the sound of me watching ANOTHER rgc video! But this one was different! Had us both in tears! Thank you! She sits through a lot of golf content! Sometimes I almost feel bad! 😏
Love this Erik! I spend 55 hrs plus a week cutting holes and raking bunkers and mowing grass and whatever else they need! It’s the little details that make the course!
This is probably the best video I've seen all year, I think you could start an additional channel with you answering phones at a golf resort hotel. Next time you're in northern Virginia, hit me up.
HA! Priceless humor, great video. NOW come to Palm Desert, CA in the busiest part of the tourist season (Jan-Apr) and handle 300+ golfers/day plus answering calls for tee times or information about another 100+ courses in the area.

I think a 2 hour video of Erik working the front desk would put me in a laughing coma
underrated truth right here
Had me rolling 💪🤣
“My moms name is Susan, wait Mom?” 😂
“It’s nice to be seen.” 😂
It’s great that Erik takes time to show some love to the unsung heroes of the sport. Huge respect for the greenkeepers around the world🙌🏼👏🏼
Thank you
I miss my greens keeping job haha it was so peaceful
I’m 17 I love the job it’s great
Thank you ✌🏻

Good luck to you ! Also, you can have all of my good vibes for the day and until you get the call back. Hopefully they sense your obvious good nature and positive attitude!

3 minutes in and I am ROLLING laughing. This is gold Erik!!

“We could open our own place. Seriously think about it. You got the local thing. I’m kind of the exotic guy.” So much fun commentary in this video.
i love your confidence and charm. the way you interact with people and always have a joke ready, but not being pushy. i admire that
The quality of the content you guys put out is just so enjoyable to watch, love it!
Thanks, Colby!
Must be a friend of the owner. I’m dead💀
Also Eric’s delirium and maniacal laughing increases as the episode goes on
I admire that Eric is unapologetically himself with everybody he meets regardless of where he is or who he is talking to

World domination didn’t work out? Changing golf holes is a close second 👍
Best content on TH-cam
Again another fantastic piece of story telling. I don't believe you could produce this film anywhere else in the world and get the same vibes. Proud to be Irish.🇮🇪
This channel is so underrated. Keep up the great work Eric, and the team as well!

Best short documentary I've seen from EAL. Well played. Keep it going.

This is honestly the first 40min Video I watched without thinking how long this is going to take... It just felt like a quick 10min video. Great job!

Loved this. I think being deliriously tired unleashed your finest banter. Might be my favourite video of yours, thank you for the excellent content.
This was so entertaining to watch. You can tell Erik just spreads joy to those around him, and to the thousands watching the video. Had a smile on through the whole video, great stuff!
Hands down, 💯 % the best outtro ever. 👏 great video. 👍

I was hooked from start to finish. A truly great RGC video!
Erik's slow descent into sleep deprived, overworked madness is very relatable.
Sleep deprivation hit him hard at the range, got sleep drunk and the younger guy was so lost! Hahaha, this is great!
Wow, great video! Makes You appreciate all the hard work from the great people that run a Course, let alone a Resort!
This is by far one of best and funniest videos I have watched. Well done for keeping us entertained all the time and for bringing amazing content! Best of luck
EAL putting in the work! Place was beautiful!

Bro the last few minutes is so funny. He said “Excuse me, stand back from the painting please. Don’t touch” 😂😂
One of the funniest and fun videos yall have ever made. Front desk Erik is the vibe I had when I worked retail tech support as a young person.
Also! Sneaking in the Home Alone shower scene 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤡
This was 38 minutes that was enjoyable from start to finish and just gave me a good smile throughout
This is the best commercial for Rosapena Golf Resort. Great job Erik
as someone who spent a lot of time in golf maintenance it’s so cool to see the appreciation man
The receptionist scene had me dying!!!!!!!!!!
Well done Erik . I've actually done everyone of those jobs. Thanks for the respect and acknowledgement for the people behind the resort
What a great piece by Erik and the team. Well done!!
Stumbled on this because of the algorithms, no clue who Erik is or anything but this is amazing. I'm new to golf, and this makes it so exciting. Seems like a blast.
We’re glad you’re here
This was just brilliant. I actually dont have any other words. Brilliant, and so enjoyable to watch. Congrats man on a great episode.
This was so wholesome and entertaining. You killed it my man. Great episode! XD
You'd never expect Erik's fantastic golf channel to also be a very sarcastic comedy channel. Had me SLAPPING multiple times. Great stuff. Loved the pivot to some other parts of the world of golf that goes overlooked or unappreciated.
Best vid of the summer!
"Susan is my mom's name... Mom?" LOL
😭
I clicked on this video out of curiosity, I'm not huge into golf. But Erik made me laugh consistently, ill think ill stick around a while!
Golden content here. Could be one of my favorite episodes 🙌🏼👏🏼
‘Have one yourself’ ‘have one what?’ 🤣🤣🤣 honestly if you don’t know what this means how else would you respond?! Perfect and hilarious.
Fantastic video Eric and the team at RGC, had me laughing the whole way through with a big smile all over my face. How fantastic are all the staff and guests for playing along. How bloody good 👌
enjoyed this, can't believe you waited from april to post this, elite patience!
The front desk position was hilarious
Hahaha great video. The curb your enthusiasm sound had me laughing out loud.
Glad to call ireland my home. Great video Erik and the team, love the content. Keep up the good work. Hope to see you in ireland again 👍
The front desk receptionist position was great 💪🤣. It's like a DJ 🤣🤣🤣
This was incredible!! Usually my gf will roll her eyes at the sound of me watching ANOTHER rgc video! But this one was different! Had us both in tears! Thank you! She sits through a lot of golf content! Sometimes I almost feel bad! 😏
What a great adventure. Thank you for sharing it, Eric.
Erik your content is just quality.
Very funny, I love watching Erik with that California charm and his impromptu take on life and golf 😄 You had me in stitches again.
First class! Makes me wish working customer service to be honest. Love it. RGC!
Absolutely cracking episode Erik.
Absolutely outstanding content! Had me laughing out loud during so many parts 😂👏🏻
Lovely place - stayed there a few years back and played a couple of rounds on a golf trip from Scotland. You picked a great day!!
EAL connects so well with people. Every video I watch I just want to but the guy a drink.
Except...
A coffee will work just fine for our boy 🙌
This is so awesome!! So great that Erik is so game to do all of this. This is why you guys are the best golf content out on youtube right now :)
Best golf video on TH-cam. Amazing
Love this Erik! I spend 55 hrs plus a week cutting holes and raking bunkers and mowing grass and whatever else they need! It’s the little details that make the course!
Amazing as always Erik. Just brilliant 👏🏻. Content is top quality as always and soundtrack to match. 💙
The quality of these videos are superb - I look forward to your future content!
This was amazing! The best RGC content I've seen.
Brilliant video showing all the pieces of the puzzle that go together to make a successful golf resort.
This was so sick! I can’t believe I almost missed this documentary since I subscribed after its release
By far favorite episode of RGC. Besides you ragging on cuzzin mark lol cheers
This is probably the best video I've seen all year, I think you could start an additional channel with you answering phones at a golf resort hotel. Next time you're in northern Virginia, hit me up.
This was a fun one to watch. Erik appears you really enjoyed this one!!
Absolutely top tier content here. Erik is hilarious lmao
This is Gold! Keep up the great content!
One of your BEST.
Great Video Erik. One of your best adventures.
The lost art of working a job you love. Great video!
'This is hard man, I'm fucking this all up' had me laughing so hard watching Erik struggle with that mower. Absolute gold content haha
HA! Priceless humor, great video. NOW come to Palm Desert, CA in the busiest part of the tourist season (Jan-Apr) and handle 300+ golfers/day plus answering calls for tee times or information about another 100+ courses in the area.
Awesome EAL… I was trying to come up with something clever but, just awesome. Nice shot Good Buddy!
he is definitely the most underrated golfer on youtube
'these are like ball markers, what are these' had me rolling. Great stuff team
So enjoyable. Laughed out old so many times.
Dude, that was incredible. You did an amazing job. I can't believe you remembered that food order. Awesome content. Keep up the good work my friend.💪👊
Super cool video! I love seeing all of the different jobs on the course
Damn Erik hitting it out the park again. I think this brought a lot more to the types of videos on this channel.
Erik at reception is the comedy I didn’t realise I needed
Another gem Erik, many thanks
Caddied for 8 years through junior high and high school. Loved it.
This was so enjoyable! Great atmosphere in the video!
Erik, you are an inspiration
Thanx for the effort, so much fun :)
