    I like the host a lot and would listen to this show more often but the Audio is so poor (quiet) β€” especially with the Guests.

  • Great listen

    I listen to a lot of these podcasts and Joe is my favorite. He brings a level headed, common sense view of the game and life that hits home with me. Keep up the good work. And maybe think about doing a few shows a year solo. I think you could do well at it.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ultimate 2026 Presidents Cup Betting GuideπŸ†| Teams, Trends, & Tactics | A BRAND NEW MEDINAH
Q: How should bettors think about format-specific strengths for Presidents Cup players?
Bettors should bucket players by format: seek aggressive drivers and big birdie-capable scorers for four-ball, and values like elite approach play, reliable scrambling, and strong lag putting for foursomes, while evaluating singles by consistency and how players perform under pressure.

Q: Where should the PGA Tour season launch point be in the calendar to maximize engagement?
The discussion suggests options around starting near the Super Bowl or around key West Coast/Arizona venues, weighing traditional calendar strengths with fan and sponsorship momentum; a preferred view points to optimizing timing with big-market events.
Can We Hit 3 In A Row?! πŸ† 2026 Scottish Open | Preview & Picks | Josh Carpenter Interview

πŸ†2026 Open Championship Preview | The NEW Royal Birkdale | James Nicholas on Qualifying for The Open
Q: What does success look like for you this week?
James says success is about his process and preparation rather than the final result; he would be proud if he executes his plan and avoids letting a bad day derail his play, aiming for a top finish but not tying success exclusively to finishing position.
