juspoole Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Chasing Scratch is coming back for it's second season on April 17th. If you've not listened to this, do yourself a favor and try it. Light hearted and well executed podcast.

sixcat Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Began listening to a podcast called "Life On Tour" recently on Spotify. It's a European Tour production that is very entertaining. Unique concept to hear the stars of the sport we love discuss their rise from childhood into the professional golf ranks in their own words. The episode featuring Ian "The Postman" Poulter is quite enlightening. It gave me a whole new perspective on his personality.

Pstmstr Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Anybody listen to any? I've been listening to Fore Play, by barstool sports recently. Just a couple average dudes talking golf. They have pretty good guests- David Feherty, George Brett, Willy Wilcox, Wesley Bryan to name a few. Looking for something to listen to in my drives to/from workUsed to listen to Foreplay until they started talking about Jack Nicklaus dying before he would let Tiger win more tournaments than he has. They also can’t seem to complete a sentence without using the F word. They do have some good guests but the podcasters themselves are just rambling most of the time. To disrespect Jack was uncalled for. I think they sit around and play with themselves while watching old Tiger video.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro I listened to Four Play off and on at one point in time. I'm far from a moralist by any definition of the word but I couldn't stand the incessant language for the sake of incessant language. I'm not put off by the occasional curse word but listening to a handful of guys drop "F" bombs every other word is annoying. Then again, Barstool Sports social media is annoying as well. Everything they do is geared toward a certain demographic that I obviously do not fall in line with. TR1PTIK and MGoBlue100 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo curse words should be used for effect and I think there is a time and place for their use.

StrokerAce Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Unfortunately that's "par for the course" with all of Barstool. It's like they want to take advantage of the fact that the FCC can't fine them so they decide that every other should be a curse word. After a while it's too much and the whole Barstool thing gets worn out....

russtopherb Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I subscribed to Chasing Scratch and downloaded all of Season 2. After the first episode I was leaning towards deleting the rest of the episodes, but I stuck with it and now I'm on Episode 6 - Conversion. The podcast definitely got better, and perhaps since I didn't listen to Season 1 is why I didn't get into the first episode I listened to.

sixcat Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 If anyone is interested in an insightful perspective on the state of the golf industry, give Erik Anders Lang's latest podcast with Dottie Pepper a listen. From her experience on the Board of Directors of the PGA of America, Pepper explains how golf isn't hurting, the business model created by "revenue" is hurting. Golf, in it's purest form, is thriving. This is what I have been saying for several years. The model of the all-inclusive club offering fine dining, fitness centers, aquatics centers, etc. is giving way to the roots of the game. A pure golf experience without the fluff and filler. This is EAL's best work to date and Pepper is brilliant and thought provoking. russtopherb, tony@CIC and HeathS16 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElChapo305 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Golf Science Lab with Cordie Walker: Best for players interested in the subject of improving their games via training, science, psychology and learning how to practice. The quality of the guests and teaching advice on this podcast is second to none. You can scroll through the library and I am sure you will find some episodes that appeal to you. His youtube channel is awesome as well. NoPutts given: Is equal parts entertaining and informative. I think in the last few episodes the team has been gelling better and the banter is enjoyable. Also they discus MGS testings and tests. GolfWRX: some good episodes but also many that are not of interest. Johnny Wunder needs to take some classes on interviewing. TXG Podcast: Ian Fraser....enough said. Brlliant youtube channel on fitting and equipment. I am more interested in playing, equipment and getting better, don't care as much what happening on the Tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also another one of my favorites is the back of the range @juspoole I agree! Chasing Scratch is one of the most entertaining podcasts I have ever listened to. Mike and Eli are HILARIOUS!!! I am one episode behind on Season 3 and almost died from laughter at Mike's version of "Hallelujah." A friend and I who are big fans of "the pod" went down to Raleigh for the listener's par 3 event and had a blast. We didn't play well, but got paired with Eli and had some great conversations. I also listen to all of the NPG podcast powered by My Golf Spy and really enjoy the insight and information that is provided.
