This week on Golfers Anonymous, I'm joined by Brian Decker, the creative mind behind the camera for Crayon Courses. We explored Brian's unique journey into the world of golf course architecture and how Crayon Courses blends his artistic talent with a deep love for the game. Brian shares insights into his creative process, breaking down what makes golf course design captivating. Brian also takes us inside his role at TPC Toronto, providing a behind-the-scenes look at the preparations and expectations for this week's Canadian Open. From course setup to player insights, we preview what fans and players can look forward to at this exciting event.

This week I'm joined by Zach and Brian from the Makeshift Pod. We talked about how each of them got into the game, what it's like playing golf in the big city, and how they've carved out their own space creating content around the sport. We also spoke about their experience teeing it up in Saudi Arabia and rounded out the convo with some around the horn debate topics from Reddit. Zach and Bryan have awesome energy for the game and it was great to have them on the show!

Most golfers show up to their favorite course and never think twice about the grass under their feet. This week, we're changing that. I'm joined by Richard Milko for a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to maintain a golf course. Richard shares his journey from culinary school to turf management, and how he found a passion for creating the kind of conditions golfers dream about. We get into everything—spring prep, tournament builds, the science behind aeration and sand, and the constant balance between playability and challenge. Richard also talks about the renovation process he just went through with Kyle Franz, the teamwork it takes to keep a course running, and why grass selection is way more important than most people realize.

One of the best things about golf is how personal the journey can be—and how it brings people together in ways you'd never expect. This week, I'm joined by Corey Davis, who picked up the game during COVID and never looked back. We talk about what it was like learning golf from scratch, the challenges that come with being a late starter, and how the game started to intersect with something even bigger—his sobriety. Corey shares the story behind Soba Golf, a wellness-driven golf community he launched to create space for people navigating recovery, mindfulness, and personal growth—all through the game of golf.  Plus, we kick around some takes on LIV vs. PGA, the entertainment side of the sport, and why golf keeps pulling people in—no matter how or when they start.

One of the wildest traditions in golf happens after the final putt drops at the Masters. This week, I'm joined by David Rumsey from Front Office Sports, who was one of 28 lucky winners of the media lottery and got to play Augusta National the day after the Masters wrapped. We talk about how it all went down—what it's like getting that golden email, trying to prep the night before, and stepping onto the first tee. David breaks down the round hole by hole, including how much he leaned on his caddie, which shots surprised him, and what it felt like playing some of the most iconic holes in golf… with no patrons around. It's a surreal story, and hearing it from someone who actually lived it makes it even better. This one was a blast.

This week on Golfers Anonymous, I'm joined by Jon Cone, a geologist and the voice behind Milwaukee Golf Blog, who brings a seriously unique perspective to the golf world. We talked about how his background in geology gives him a fresh appreciation for golf course design—especially in a place like Wisconsin, where glaciers left behind some of the most fascinating terrain in the country. From Erin Hills to Sand Valley to Lawsonia Links, Jon breaks down how the land itself tells a really cool story. We also got into his journey with the game, the vibrant Milwaukee golf community, and a lost golf course on the land that is now used for Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.

This week on Golfers Anonymous, I'm joined by Aaron Schrank from Rustic Golf Provisions. We talked about his roots in Rhode Island golf, how he fell into photography, and the connection between the two. Aaron shared stories from trips to Pinehurst, Southern Pines, Payne's Valley, and Fishers Island, and how he captures those moments with disposable cameras. We also got into his mission to play every public course in Rhode Island, what he's learned along the way about expressing his creativity, and the ways golf brings people together.

This week on Golfers Anonymous, I'm joined once again by Jordan Jackson from Dog Tracks and Cow Pastures to preview the 2025 Masters. We got into all things Augusta—starting with the course changes after Hurricane Helene and what those might mean for this year's tournament. We talked about the legacy of the green jacket, and what a third Masters win in four years would mean for Scottie Scheffler. We also looked at some of the other big names heading into the week—Rory, Rahm, Bryson, and Morikawa—and why Augusta is such a unique challenge for certain players. To wrap it up, we did our own Masters draft—breaking down favorites, dark horses, and a few guys we think could miss the cut. 

This week's guest is Jimmy Bunkers, a golf-obsessed Aussie and our second guest to call in from the land down under. We talk about Jimmy's path into the game—how he made the switch from Australian rules football and basketball to golf—and the mindset shift that came with it. He walks me through his 75 Day Hard golf challenge, which focuses on daily practice, course management, and consuming all kinds of golf content to level up his game. We also dive into the golf culture down under, his love for volunteer-run courses, and his mission to play and highlight the kinds of courses most golfers tend to skip over.  Jimmy's approach is refreshingly honest, and it was a blast picking his brain on all things golf.

My guest this week is Hannah Rae—a content creator, comedian, and self-proclaimed former golf hater who's now fully hooked on the game. We dive into Hannah's unlikely journey into golf, how her work with St. Andre is helping make the sport more fun and accessible, and the creative process behind building engaging golf content. She shares stories from working alongside legends like Tiger Woods, reflects on how comedy shapes her approach to the game, and opens up about the friendships and moments that have made golf meaningful for her. We also get into the DP World Tour video she created with St. Andre—which, in my opinion, is the best piece of golf content ever made. Hannah was an absolute pleasure to talk to, and St. Andre just keeps crushing it.

My guest this week is David Rumsey, a sports business journalist with Front Office Sports. We break down the Players Championship, talk about Rory McIlroy's performance, and dive into the money behind the sport—LIV Golf, TGL, and whether golf's financial model actually makes sense. David also shares his take on the future of the game, from media coverage to sponsorship deals and everything in between. If you love talking golf and the business that keeps it running, this episode is for you. I found his explanation of what is going on between the PGA TOUR and LIV Golf to be super helpful.

My guest this week is Jordan Jackson, an architecture obsessed golfer and the voice behind Dog Tracks and Cow Pastures. We chat about his journey in the game—from early rounds with his dad to his experiences in competitive golf—and how that led him to a deep appreciation for golf course architecture. Jordan shares his thoughts on the influence of Stanley Thompson, the charm of nine-hole courses, and his mission to spotlight public golf courses that might otherwise be overlooked. We also dig into the Canadian golf scene, and Jordan's project to rank the best nine-hole courses across Canada. Jordan has a super unique perspective on golf and I had a pleasure learning more about how his golf brain works.

Plus, since Kyle works in sports media, so it was great to get his take on what TGL has gotten right so far and where golf as an entertainment product is headed.

This week, I'm joined by Jeff, a golf broadcaster with a deep passion for the game and a career built around telling its stories. From his early days as a young golfer to becoming an expert in the broadcasting world, Jeff has seen golf from inside the ropes and behind the mic. We dive into the art of golf broadcasting, the preparation it takes to call the action, and the moments that make the job unforgettable. Jeff shares his favorite players, the excitement surrounding the 2025 season, and how TGL is bringing a new dimension to the sport. We also talk about the drama of live golf, the challenge every televised round presents, and the unique energy of covering the game on the ground.

This week, I'm joined by Addie, a golf writer and the Travel and Lifestyle Editor for Skratch. From her early days in competitive golf to carving out a career in the media space, she's experienced the game from all angles. But what really sets her apart is her ability to capture the evolving spirit of golf—whether it's the challenges of playing in New York City, the rise of creative golf fashion, or the new wave of inclusivity shaping the sport. We dive into the innovative aspects of TGL, the deep personal connections we form with our favorite courses, and how golf has become more than just a game—it's a lifestyle. Addie's insights offer a fresh perspective on where the sport is headed and why.

Golf has a unique way of blending history, craftsmanship, and creativity—and Joshua Smith embodies all three. This week, I'm joined by Josh, a golfer with a deep love for the game and a unique perspective on its artistry. From playing college golf to managing courses, he's seen the sport from all angles. But what really sets him apart is his passion for persimmon woods, oil painting, and his latest entrepreneurial venture, Flag Bag—a brand that turns golf flags into custom golf bags and accessories. We dive into the craftsmanship behind each bag, the personal stories they carry, and how Josh has built a thriving business by celebrating golf's rich history. He also shares some unforgettable experiences with celebrity clients and his favorite courses that have shaped his love for the game.

One of my favorite things about golf is how it always seems to come full circle. This week, I'm joined by Pete Meagher—a true Boston golf sicko. Pete grew up looping at Charles River Country Club before taking his game to the next level in Division 1 college golf. Now, he's giving back to the sport as a high school coach, helping young players develop their skills and mindset. We talk about the lessons he picked up along the way—from reading greens as a caddie to grinding through college tournaments—and how his perspective on the game has evolved over the years. Plus, Pete shares what it's like coaching the next generation, the biggest challenges young golfers face, and why he's still chasing that competitive edge. Fired up to have Pete on the show—this is a good one.

This week, we're diving into the world of vintage golf clothing. Wilson Valdez picked up golf not too long ago, but he's already made it a big part of his life, both on and off the course. Wilson has embraced the sport's unique culture in Arkansas and taken it a step further by launching Willy's Golf Shop, his own vintage clothing store on instagram. We talk about the ups and downs of learning the game, his knack for finding one-of-a-kind pieces for the shop, and how golf fashion is becoming a platform for self-expression.

We're starting off the new year with a very different type of golf sicko. The beginner. Chris picked up golf under a year ago, but is now a full on golf addict like the rest of us.  Not only has Chris fallen in love with the game of golf, but also the modern culture that golf now offers. He even dove head first into starting his own niche golf brand called Backswing Bottle Company where he's looking spice up the way we hydrate out on the course. Despite being so new to the game, Chris already has tons of awesome stories to share about the first set of clubs he bought, his first time on the course, and what his practice looks like. I think this is the perfect way to start year two of the pod, I hope you all like it! If you want to learn more about what Chris is doing, check out his IG: @backswingbottleco

We swap stories about some of our favorite courses, like Torrey Pines and Franklin Park, and share a few dream courses still on our bucket lists. We also get into the tight-knit community of golfers, the highs and lows of the game, and how golf has brought Jameson closer to his family. We had an awesome chat about what makes golf so frustrating, rewarding, and downright addictive.

My guest this week is Lucas Beaudoin, the Director of Magic at Liberty National Golf Club. Yes, you read that right—Director of Magic. From a young age, Lucas was captivated by two passions: golf and magic. For years, he couldn't quite see how the two worlds could intersect. But after dedicating his career to the golf industry while working side gigs as a magician, he's now living the dream—combining both in a 1/1 role in the world of golf. Lucas shares incredible stories from working at iconic golf destinations like Liberty National and Bandon Dunes. We also dive into the surprising parallels between golf and magic—and he even performs a trick for me live! Check out the video version on YouTube if you want a taste of what Lucas has cooking.
