It doesn't get much better than going out there and filming golf videos for a living. It doesn't feel real.- Leaving Good Good was a very violent time in the YouTube golf space. I remember getting death threats and just terrible thousands of messages a day.- That's the closest I ever felt to God. It was just very late nights and the magnitude of this decision felt so big.- If you're a Christian, God is going to use whatever situation or circumstance you are in to make you more like Jesus- I remember a kid coming up to me on the range reciting everything we said in these videos word for word. And I'm thinking what about the hundreds of thousands of other kids out there absorbing this?- That was a moment where I had to be like, what is my purpose in this industry and how do I want to impact people?- The Lord was always tugging at me. I need to take this serious.- I went to chapel and then I would go out on Sunday and party. I felt like I was living two lives.- I made the decision in Dallas. I went and got baptized and I was like, I am all in.- It doesn't get easier once you make that decision. It only gets harder. It only requires more discipline.- My biggest goal with our channel is to make sure that families can sit down in their living room all together and watch the videos- Having to turn down brands that don't align with our goal is one of the hardest things- Proverbs 18:1: whoever isolates himself seeks his own desire. He breaks out against all sound judgment.- I don't talk a ton about my faith on videos but when you meet people in real life every other person wanted to talk about the faith conversation. Christians will support you really hard. They are their fans for life.- Just be a good person is something I hear a lot. But the definition of good across a thousand people changes like that. If we don't have a truth and a set of standards we are living by, what are we doing?- Jeremiah 29:11: for I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope- When things are going great it is so easy to say I did this on my own.

If then you received it, why do you boast as if you did not receive it?

That is part of what we are to do as ambassadors of Christ and I am certainly not ashamed of it- The 1991 Ryder Cup: missing the six foot putt and what his faith taught him about perspective- Larry, I have just missed a putt.

Left. And it has not returned. And this was 1985.- Winning the 1993 Masters on Easter Sunday: I am the only guy in Butler Cabin to mention Jesus twice, once in a very bad way- Money or victories are short lived. Only God can satisfy the void. Without him we are missing the biggest part.- We need to live life from an eternal perspective. Eternity is a very very long time compared to the 100 years we may live here on Earth.Follow Bible Caddie:Instagram: @biblecaddieTikTok: @biblecaddieX: @biblecaddieListen and subscribe: https://www.biblecaddie.com/podcastInterested in starting a Bible Caddie Featured Group? groups@biblecaddie.comQuestions or inquiries: info@biblecaddie.comShop Bible Caddie: https://www.biblecaddie.com

There's sci-fi that blows up planets, and then there's sci-fi that hits you right in the soul. Ben Crane's Scattered Futures looks like one of those books that understands the future is not just built with machines, war, and shiny helmets—it's built with people, with choices, and with the small acts of kindness that keep us from turning into emotionally expired space jerky. On this episode of the Comic Crusaders Podcast, we sit down with writer and editor Ben Crane to talk about his new Kickstarter project, Scattered Futures, a 32-page collection of three full-color science fiction comics that explores hope and human connection in a harsh and fractured universe. The anthology features art by Sierra Barnes, Jenny Fleming, and Martyn Lorbiecki, and adds another strong chapter to Crane's growing body of work, which also includes Cosmic Cadets, A Man of Lies, and editing the sci-fi anthology Systemic. What makes this project stand out is that it isn't just selling cool concepts—it's selling emotional truth. In a recent interview, Crane explained that Scattered Futures came out of a period of personal hopelessness and became a way to imagine a better world through small, quiet moments of optimism. That's a powerful hook right there, because the best comics don't just entertain us—they give us language for what we're surviving. And that's exactly why this conversation matters. We talk with Ben about his creative journey, what it means to work across prose and comics, how editing sharpens storytelling, and why collaboration is everything when building a project like this. We also dig into the DNA of Scattered Futures how three short stories can still feel emotionally rich, why gentleness can be radical in fiction, and how science fiction can reflect the fears of today while still offering a glimpse of tomorrow that doesn't feel totally doomed. For indie comics fans, this is the sweet spot. You've got a creator with real storytelling range, a project with a strong emotional identity, and a Kickstarter that proves readers are hungry for thoughtful, human-centered science fiction. The campaign is already funded and runs through April 4, 2026, which means now is the perfect time for readers to jump in, support the book, and help push this thing even further into orbit. If you love comics with heart, ideas, and purpose, keep your eyes on Scattered Futures. This one feels like it's coming from a real place and those are the books that stay with you.

But they can be extremely comforting if we come to Christ as He prescribes.We are getting to the end of our study on the Sermon on the Mount.

After a "fabulous golf weekend," Andy and Brendan return to recap the best-case scenario unfolding at the U.S. Women's Open and a marathon Sunday at Jack's Place that ended up in yet another playoff finish. They begin with Nelly Korda's win at Riviera, her first U.S. Open title and another leg down on both the Career Grand Slam and Career Super Slam. The two are joined by former LPGA caddie Matthew Galloway to break down the weekend and what this monumental win could mean for women's golf moving forward. They discuss how to improve the broadcast experience on NBC as well as the impressive list of future host courses for the U.S. Women's Open. Andy and Brendan then move on to the Memorial, where The Postman delivered on Sunday! J.T. Poston took down Ryan Gerard in a Sunday playoff after playing 33 holes due to a rain-shortened Saturday round. Poston's win and Gerard's continued 2026 emergence are propped up as evidence that the Signature Event model is working as intended, with both Andy and Brendan criticizing the idea of "Track 2" players not being able to play their way into "Track 1" events on the new PGA Tour schedule. They also discuss Scottie Scheffler at length following a now-viral interaction with Ted Scott on Thursday afternoon and another disappointing finish at perhaps his best course-fit on Tour.

In this episode, Webb Simpson, Ben Crane, and William Kane unpack Matthew 5:31–32 and Jesus' teaching on marriage and divorce from the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus' words remind us that because of where marriage comes from and what it is, disciples of Jesus are called to hold marriage in the highest regard. Divorce, according to Jesus' teaching, should be a last-ditch option, allowable only under the circumstances of adultery or abandonment.Given where marriage came from and what God intends for it, it's impossible to have too high a view of marriage. Marriage is designed to be an unbreakable bond between one man and one woman, all in order to point the watching world to Jesus Christ. As a result, disciples of Jesus should do whatever we can to preserve our marriages.If you're looking for biblical teaching on Matthew 5, the Sermon on the Mount, Christian marriage, divorce in the Bible, and discipleship, this episode walks carefully through Jesus' words and what they mean for followers of Christ today.Follow us on socials!Bible Caddie on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/biblecaddieTikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@biblecaddieX/Twitter:https://x.com/biblecaddieGet connected!Shop Bible Caddie gear:https://biblecaddie.com/pro-shop/Start a Featured Group:https://biblecaddie.com/start-a-group/
Andy and Brendan are just about ready to head down to Ponte Vedra for a "major" March event, but we've already missed out on one Players tradition! Andy can't believe that the yearly TPC Sawgrass arrival videos did not make it into Sunday's Arnold Palmer Invitational broadcast. NBC couldn't cut away from a duel between Daniel Berger and Akshay Bhatia on the back nine that ended with Akshay's third playoff win on the PGA Tour. The two break down Bhatia's comeback win and standing in the game as one of the premier players under the age of 25. The constant comparisons between Rickie Fowler and Arnold Palmer and some complaints from Justin Thomas regarding the setup at Bay Hill also feature prominently in this Arnold Palmer Invitational recap. The Players DID release their featured groups on Sunday afternoon, leaving a spot for an injured(?) Rory McIlroy and a struggling Justin Thomas to be on non-stop coverage for the first two rounds. Andy's "Event of the Week," the Puerto Rico Open, was "must see TV" with a leaderboard full of young talent including John Daly II, Blades Brown, and winner Ricky Castillo. Patrick Reed notched another DP World Tour top 10, but could not stop the blaze of Dan Bradbury at the Joburg Open. Brendan then shifts the conversation to Jon Rahm's win at LIV Hong Kong, his first individual win since 2024. Neither Brendan nor Andy are moved much by this win for Rahm and point out that maybe playing a LIV schedule is not the best preparation for a major championship, unlike the test presented by Bay Hill this week. Lastly on results, Zach Johnson is one-for-one in his Champs Tour career, taking down the James Hardie Pro Football Hall of Fame Invitational! Sorry to all Ben Crane bettors, as he finished outside of the top 30 in his Senior Tour debut. This Gambling Podcast regrets the error. Check back on Tuesday as Andy and Brendan go live(?) to preview the 2026 Players Championship! Thank you to Optum for their support of our Players Championship coverage.
In this episode, Webb Simpson, Ben Crane, and William Kane sit down with Tyler Toney, co-founder and front man of Dude Perfect, to talk about golf, faith, family, and the journey behind one of the most successful YouTube channels in the world.Tyler shares stories from the early days of Dude Perfect filming trick shots in college to building a channel with more than 60 million subscribers. The conversation covers the creative process behind Dude Perfect videos, memorable moments from filming, and what life looks like behind the scenes.The guys also talk with Tyler about his faith in Christ, balancing work with family life, and how he and the Dude Perfect team have chosen to share their faith publicly. The episode closes with a discussion of 1 John 4:19 — “We love because he first loved us.”If you enjoy conversations about golf, faith, YouTube, Dude Perfect, and following Christ, this episode will encourage you.Follow us on socials!

Brendan! is on edge early in this episode ahead of a win-and-in Jupiter Links match rounding out TGL's regular season. He shares his favorite team's lineup for the match with Andy and highlights management's decision to send out Kevin Kisner for this pivotal moment in team history. Things quickly transition into the Schedule for the Week for another loaded weekend of outdoor golf. The PGA Tour returns to Bay Hill Club & Lodge for the Arnold Palmer Invitational, one of the premier iron tests on the schedule. Brendan claims that you "cannot be a fraud" this week and believes imposters will be exposed around Arnold's Place. Andy's "5 Guys to Monitor" puts the spotlight on two players making their first PGA Tour starts of 2026 and some other big-name players searching for a win in Florida. There are some laments from Andy about the smaller, Signature Event field making Bay Hill not as fun for PGA Tour Live viewing, but Brendan pushes back and is excited to see all the screened-in porches. PJ jumps in to run the year's first installment of In/Out/Alternate in honor of this week's Puerto Rico Open, where the Past Champions category is putting in work after a slew of withdrawals. Ben Crane's much-anticipated (and highly bet on!) Champions Tour debut is blown by in the rundown in favor of a discussion about Jon Rahm's comments in Hong Kong. Many LIV players are stuck in the Middle East and reserves will be in action, but Rahm made the trip and decided to prolong his fight with the DP World Tour. He has taken exception to the DP World Tour mandating that LIV members play six events, making for a busy fall following the LIV season's end. Andy and Brendan do not feel any pain for Rahm, wondering how he's gone this far in his "delusional" fight against the DPWT. Will this mark the end of Rahm's Ryder Cup career? It looks like things are trending that way. Use promo code SGS30 to shop the Draddy Sport Spring collection: https://bdraddy.com/collections/draddy-sport-spring-26-collection
In this episode on Matthew 5:27–30, Webb Simpson, Ben Crane, and William Kane unpack the requirements of Christ's kingdom as it relates to sexual purity. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus teaches that it is not enough to simply refrain from adultery; disciples of Jesus are to refrain from looking at others with lustful intentions. Only through Christ can we be forgiven of our failure in this area and begin to live lives that honor Him.The guys walk carefully through this passage and discuss what Jesus' words mean for the heart and daily obedience.Follow Bible Caddie on Instagram: @biblecaddieShop Bible Caddie merch: https://biblecaddie.com/pro-shop/Start a Featured Group: https://biblecaddie.com/start-a-group/

There's an epidemic of cis spouses and partners leaving trans people when we come out. Worse, some cis spouses and partners hold relationships, homes, even children over us, with the threat of losing them if we transition. So let's talk about why the support of our cis partners is so vital, what it looks like, and why the opposite is so entirely devastating (and wrong). Artist Andy Alves and writer Ben Crane join us to discuss what transition was like for them and their relationship (find them at HeroesCon June 14-16)! I'm Susan's pal, and shits are fine.
