This week on Parney Time, Parney sits down with one of the biggest personalities in golf, Fat Perez, for an honest and hilarious conversation about one of the most unlikely success stories in sports media.

Before becoming a household name through Bob Does Sports, Fat Perez was working as an accountant in Virginia, living a stable life with a steady career. Then one opportunity changed everything. He opens up about the difficult decision to leave it all behind, the moments he realized his life would never be the same, and what it's been like becoming one of the most recognizable faces in YouTube golf.

The two also dive into:
Leaving accounting to join Bob Does Sports full-time
The surreal moments that made his YouTube career feel real
Playing alongside Bryson DeChambeau and what he's really like off camera
The origin of the legendary "Euro Step"
Being recognized by PGA Tour players and celebrities
His unforgettable memories at St. Andrews
Favorite golf courses and life inside professional golf
Behind-the-scenes stories about tour caddies
The hardest he's ever laughed filming with the Bob Does Sports crew
Tiger Woods seeing his putt at the Creator Classic
Taking on Phil Mickelson in one of golf's most memorable challenge videos
Why authenticity has been the key to his success

Whether you're a golfer, a Bob Does Sports fan, or simply love hearing incredible career journeys, this is a must-listen conversation with one of the most entertaining personalities in golf today.

This season of Parney Time is proudly presented by LaBella, a full-service engineering, architecture, environmental, and planning firm who helped bring CarMax Park to life and help build stronger communities across the country. Learn more: https://labellapc.com/
