Check your damn sound levels boys. Your volumes are terrible.
a little gross how much hate you have towards Liv. you should look into the world series cricket takeover if u havent already. most sounded like you guys.
dafuq guys? the day Brooks joins LIV, you do an LPGA preview??? I get that it was probably prerorded but surely you could have added a reaction segment at the beginning
This is fantastic. Thanks for putting this out.
Talked the talk every lead up episode about how bad golf coverage is , let Jim off pretty lightly, reckon you layed up there Soly
he looks like a peaky blinder....lol.
This is just gold. Thanks Soly, tremendous interview.
You guys need to stop watching American golf coverage, it's garbage. Sky sports coverage is brilliant.
You guys live in Jax?
Just watched the last episode of Ireland st my beloved enniscrone, brilliant show guys 👍
WARNING! lots of fowl language but in this podcast.
Great episode! As someone just getting into golf I would love more of these looks at golf's history and the players that helped shaped it.
brooks was late to the course because he was with rorys wife for good measure
To your point about the equipment being too strong for the pros. The USGA should make the pros use equipment that doesnt go as far, just as MLB uses wooden bats. Keeps it fun for those up and coming, and challenges the best in the game properly.
wonderful episode, well done.
GOAT
Great episode!
this podcast had more whine then a french vineyard
Yer boýs took a hell of a beating. Ye ve been building up all year for a joyous victory. And got whipped! Time ye faced up that us tour events are set up too easy and that its not about as far as u hit it. Journeymen is an insult. Stop thinking small picture golf. As journalists you should view the europeans with more respect. ye ve won 1 in 5!! .
