Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme begin the show recapping an exciting end to the Farmers Insurance Open in which the entire final group was in play on the 72nd hole (along with Jake Knapp!) until Matthieu Pavon made an improbable birdie from the rough to record his first PGA TOUR win as a rookie. Smylie also recounts his time at the PGA Show, where he hit bombs with a ladies driver at TopGolf in front of Tom Watson. Dylan Dethier then joins Smylie to discuss his bombshell report last week that Anthony Kim is considering a return to professional golf after a 12-year absence. Finally, Smylie and Charlie discuss the big news that SK will be in a kayak at the Players Championship on Wednesday.

Trevor Immelman, 2008 Masters champion and lead golf analyst for CBS, discusses his love for broadcasting, praises rising golfers Min Woo Lee and Tom Kim, predicts breakout seasons for PGA Tour pros, and shares challenges of playing in a noisy environment and building a brand in golf.

Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme celebrate a historic day in golf: 20-year-old Nick Dunlap, who is currently a sophomore at the University of Alabama, won the American Express as an amateur, the first time an amateur has won on Tour since Phil Mickelson in 1991. Smylie recounts what it's been like watching Nick grow up in Birmingham, and what an incredible incubator of golf talent that city's been with the concurrent rise of Vanderbilt junior Gordon Sargent. SK and CH also discuss whether it's even a question if Nick will turn pro given all the immediate status that comes with a Tour win.

Smylie Kaufman is joined by a James Nitties - a fellow former PGA and Korn Ferry Tour pro who has found success as a broadcaster after the conclusion of his playing career. James and Smylie discuss all of the Korn Ferry Tour graduates to the PGA Tour, and project which rookies will have the most success in the 2024 season.

Smylie and Charlie recap the Sony Open and discuss a thrilling playoff, a controversial TIO drop, and Gary Woodland's inspiring return. They also touch on LIV Golf news and make a suggestion to the Girl Scouts.

Smylie Kaufman chats with his newly minted "colleague," Kevin Kisner, after the latter made his broadcasting debut for NBC Sports & Golf Channel at the Sentry. Kiz goes into detail on his first week as "media," breaks down what he's been working on in his golf game, and closes the show with one of the more unique Phil Mickelson stories you'll ever hear.

The podcast discusses the start of the 2024 PGA TOUR season, the challenges of the Sony Golf Tournament, restructuring Monday qualifiers, potential changes to the PGA TOUR, Tiger Woods ending his partnership with Nike, marketing challenges faced by the PGA TOUR, and the proposed restructuring of the tour to attract top players and retain sponsors.

In a recent appearance on the "Stick To Football" podcast, Rory McIlroy made hugely surprising comments on LIV Golf after spending the better part of the last year or two criticizing the tour. Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme listen and react to several key excerpts from Rory's appearance on STF, before previewing the 2024 PGA Tour season + what lies beyond for the Tour with expected changes coming in 2025.
