"The transfusion is quite delicious, but it may kill ya"
The whole gang is back together with lots of news to talk about. Should Phil and Tiger have to put up their own 10 million dollars? Did Phil violate a new rule on purpose to save face? Is an LPGA player whiffing on the tee box good for golf? We also take a handful of From The Galleries including a listener's wild dream about dining tables on tee boxes in Scotland.

"Five Days In Heaven," a full Cabot Cliffs review
It's travel time. We spent five days at Cabot Links on the cliffs of Nova Scotia playing the Cabot Cliffs and Cabot Links courses... and it was the most spectacular experience of our lives. From the Canadian customer service to a lobster broil on the beach to a belief that Cabot Cliffs is the single best golf course on earth, we have an all-time story to tell. A villa on the ocean; six rounds with caddies that can only be described as "Canadian beauties"; seeing every star in the universe at night; ordering lobster rolls for breakfast. Come take this journey with us -- you don't want to miss it!You can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube. Prime Members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music.

We take a DEEP dive into the life and career of Tiger Woods this week. Co-author of the new, best-selling biography "Tiger Woods," Armen Keteyian, joins the show to discuss Tiger's life and career and the 3+ year research process to uncover it. Few people know more about Tiger than Armen, and we get his thoughts and reaction on the research process and on the past, the present, and future of Tiger (hint: Armen's as amazed as anybody about Tiger's latest comeback).

"I'll Have Another" with Colin Montgomerie
In one of our finer moments, we drink whiskey live on the show with Colin Montgomerie, and talk quite loosely about golf. We go deep into the one shot of Monty's career he'd like to have back most; the best courses in Scotland; Monty's greatest memory from his Ryder Cup dominance; his thoughts on Phil Mickelson and Shinnecock; his history with the fans. This is an enthralling ride with a man who's both one of the best Ryder Cuppers of all time and one of the greatest players to have never won a major championship. In "Headlines," we weigh in on Bryson's compass, on Korean sensation Hosung Choi's iconic golf swing, and Riggs reveals that he may no longer hate Bubba Watson.
