Crash Course, Episode 6: The Creek Club

Soly and D.J. visited the site of the 2021 Ryder Cup in the fall of 2019, and lived to tell the tale. The big boy golf course that stretches to 7,700 yards on Lake Michigan is polarizing. The boys debrief on the full experience, both the positives and the negatives.

Crash Course, Episode 5: Whistling Straits

The Strapped Boys brought you an excellent episode on Audubon Park in New Orleans, and now they grab the mics to talk about it some more. 4,200 yards, par 62, and mega affordable.

We're headed to the Home of the Blues, Graceland, FedEx, and a gigantic pyramid--Memphis, Tennessee! There was only one man we could talk to this week, and that's CBS Sports's Kyle Porter.

Plus there's discussion on several things in Memphis and a few things outside of Memphis. Enjoy!

Fox is no longer bringing us the US Open, and we're all pretty bummed about that. Joe Buck joins us to talk about the strides Fox made over the years, what it was like to break into golf coverage, and what this five year journey has been like for him as a golf junkie. We try to make sense of what went down behind the scenes, we breakdown what he learned from the analysts he worked with, and what he learned about covering golf. Really appreciate Joe's perspective on these topics, and hope this isn't the end of his appearances on this podcast.

333 - Joe Buck

We're off to the land of 10,000 lakes! It's Twin Cities week and Tron and Randy brought in The Ringer's Megan Schuster to talk about her hometown. From the sports scene to the arts scene, and of course so much in between, we learn all about Minneapolis/St. Paul. Enjoy!

Jon Rahm blows away the field, and then he doesn't, and then he does again. We discuss a wild weekend at Muirfield Village, the weird rules situation down the stretch (13:00), Finau, Bryson (29:30), course setup (47:30), why this doesn't happen every week, segments (1:23:00), and a bunch of listener questions. This one went long and we're not even a little bit sorry about it. A lot of fun in this one.

332 - Memorial Tournament Recap

Our man is back! Peter Kostis joins to talk a bit more about golf on TV, why streaming happens and what those days are like for announcers, and the next deal. He also details some stories from his time at Augusta, including a great Greg Norman story. We also pick his brain on his teaching, what Bryson is currently doing, technology, Formula 1, and a great Tiger story near the end. Thanks again to Peter for the time.

330 - Peter Kostis, Part II

Tom Watson, Padraig Harrington, Iain Carter, and (for some reason) Soly spent an hour talking about The Open Championship, the Old Course, and "The Open for the Ages" which is airing this coming weekend. The R&A was kind enough to provide us with the audio from the conversation to put on our feed, so we're adding it as a bonus episode this week. It was a thrill to hear these two share their memories and perspective on the historic championship. They also break down how they play the Old Course, holes they can't crack, and what makes the Old Course great.

331 - Tom Watson, Padraig Harrington, and Iain Carter (The Open Championship for the Ages)
