“Hey Kuch, you gotta be David McLay-Kidd’ing me”
Matt Kuchar wins again amid swirling rumors he gypped a local caddie. We weigh in on all that, discuss Hosung Choi making his TOUR debut at Pebble next month, then are joined by renowned course architect David McLay-Kidd (49:04). DMK tells the stories behind building the original Bandon Dunes course as an inexperienced 27-year-old in the 1990s; then discusses the challenges behind designing the Castle Course at St. Andrews; he tells of the sentimentality behind building Machrihanish Dunes; he reveals his thoughts on Augusta National today; he shows his feelings towards rival architect Tom Doak. Truly, DMK is a fascinating guy who loves golf and has evolved dramatically as a course architect over the past two decades, recently building the highly-praised masterpiece that is Mammoth Dunes!You can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube.

Video games, movies, stolen clubs and... Australia?
It's golf podcasting in December -- we're talking Q-School dominance despite stolen clubs, reviewing The Golf Club 2019 video game, and getting deep into several From The Galleries. What's the proper protocol when course maintenance workers are in the way? Is Frankie Butter Knives stubborn or just dumb? Have we ever been happier than we are to learn we have fans in Australia???

“Bryson simply will not loosen his grip on me”
Bryson DeChambeau pokes Frankie “Snapper McGee” Borrelli yet again as we're still buzzing from the Tiger Woods show. In Headlines, Tony Finau can't stop finishing second, Tiger's all set on 2018, and we recount what a drama-filled year it's been. In From The Gallery, how close is too close for the rangefinder, is the square strike illegal, and would you take a Tiger 2019 Masters win if it means he immediately retires???

"We did it," featuring Tiger Woods
On this podcast, you will hear Tiger Woods directly answering questions from Riggs. It's only about 3 minutes, but we got Tiger Woods, and it was awesome. Riggs tells the story of how meeting and interviewing Tiger came to be, how Riggs was nervously shaking, how Joey LaCava played a role, and what Tiger was like before, during, and after the chat (also a special Phil Mickelson story). Additionally, we deliver all our hot “The Match” takes, and reveal that Wolf Creek — from the Tiger video games — is actually a real golf course. Biiiiiig show!
