2022 comes to a close on the TrapDraw in fitting style with a chop session featuring TC & Randy.

Today's show is a conversation with writer Stephen Proctor (@SProctorGolf on twitter) about his new book, "The Long Golden Afternoon: Golf's Age of Glory, 1864-1914." This book is an expertly-researched, easy-to-read look into a half-century of the game which sets the stage for the modern age while at the same time dealing with a lot of issues still at the heart of golf today (eg. technology). Stephen shines light on forgotten champions such as John Ball, John Henry Taylor, and many more. It's a great gift for any golf history nuts and avid readers in your life. Enjoy!

This week's show is all about football. Joining TC & Randy are two familiar faces, Micah Pueschel (front-man for the band Iration) and Kevin Van Valkenburg (writer for ESPN). The show kicks off with a bit of college football discussion, notably Deion to Boulder, Hugh Freeze to Auburn, and Buck Tech to the playoff. Then they dive into a robust NFL discussion--who's winning the season-long NFL team draft, what's up with the Niners, Ravens, and Bengals; and of course so, so much more (including a really interesting conversation around Justin Herbert and Joe Burrow).
