Fore Play

A very unique and fascinating guest on today’s show. Dr. Jared Van Snellenberg (54:40) was Happy Gilmore’s caddie, and today is a doctor conducting important research on the brain. As you may imagine, this takes us down a lot of different roads: what was the Happy Gilmore role like, how does the brain affect good golf versus bad golf, how can we better control our own brains, and much more. Before Dr. Van Snellenberg, we have a lengthy discussion on the PGA Tour’s new “Player Impact Program,” rewarding a $40M bonus pool to the players who are most impactful on moving the needle.

Scottie Scheffler takes home Player of the Year honors for the fourth straight season, prompting the guys to debate whether Rory McIlroy has a case after his illustrious 2025 season (4:50). From there, they discuss coming of age at Barstool and when they finally started to feel like real adults (25:50).

He breaks down their hang at Borrelli’s and how it led to a friendly wager at Saturday’s game. The guys also dive into a disastrous penalty at Q-School (53:55), sparking a conversation about the inaccuracy of ball-marking on the greens. They wrap things up by discussing why more people don't practice tough shots (1:08:40) and run through the courses that have hosted the most U.S. Opens (1:21:05).

Is Our List Guy Losing It?

On today’s episode, the guys are live from adidas Golf headquarters in Carlsbad, California. They cover a wide range of topics, including Frankie questioning how far technology has really come (28:00), Brooks Koepka potentially parting ways with LIV Golf (44:00), which states have the highest percentage of private golf courses (56:50), plus plenty more to wrap up the show.

Live From Adidas Golf Headquarters!

On today’s episode, we’ve got a full slate of December golf news to unpack.

We also break down Tiger Woods’ recent press conference (41:10), discuss Rory McIlroy’s favorite course down under (55:10), and wrap things up by congratulating our good friend Colt Knost on his well-deserved promotion to the broadcast booth (1:10:40).
