  • Not for me

    I like the content. Like the guests. I find the host to be almost unlistenable. Interjects and interrupts. He’s smug and seems arrogant.

  • Too many ads.

    The amount of ads is a bit extreme. Just found the podcast and played the first episode. First 6 mins were commercials and after 30 minutes there have been and additional for 3 lengthy ad segments. If you want to keep fast forwarding every few minutes, maybe it’ll be worthwhile for you.

  • Full of Adverts.

    I tried the latest podcast but gave up after about 15 minutes because there seemed to be more adverts than content. A shame because the content sounded as if it might get interesting but the interviewee was interrupted by ads so often that there was no flow.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

TLink GPS | Mulligans
Q: What was the pricing strategy that allowed you to hit a $99 unit price?
The approach was to minimize hardware costs by offloading GPS processing to the user's phone and relying on cloud-based data updates, which reduced memory and built-in GPS requirements, enabling a lower price point while maintaining accuracy.

Why Golfers Plateau? And How to Break It with Christo Garcia
Q: What is the most impactful shift that helped you improve, and how can listeners apply it?
The most impactful shift is a smooth transition and a patient, relaxed tempo, followed by strong emphasis on short game and a positive self-identity; listeners can practice with a mindset of ease at transition, devote time to short game, and adopt an alter-ego mindset to overcome mental barriers.
Why Golfers Plateau? And How to Break It with Christo Garcia
Q: What version of the modern swing was being discussed, and how did it differ from the classic swing?
