This week, we discuss lousy quarterbacking (and lots of fumbles), the unique career of Bob Parsons; Ken Houston's stats with Houston and Washington; and running backs and tight ends becoming a larger part of the passing game. Oh, and actor Bradford Dillman's draft picks for the 49ers. Quote of the week: "Phipps to Pitts, twenty-six, equals six." Intro-outro music is "To the Well Once Too Often."

“The work that we do is actually very difficult to detach from when you're writing in somebody's voice,” notes veteran collaborator Laura Morton on the emotional connection she often feels when channeling her clients' stories.   Laura comes by this observation honestly, after spending more than thirty years helping to tell other people's stories.  In that time, she has written more than 60 books, including 22 New York Times bestsellers. Her most recent bestseller Fire in the Hole: The Untold Story of My Traumatic Life and Explosive Success, written with GoDaddy and PXG Golf founder Bob Parsons—was a publication of Lasega Books, her own imprint at Forefront Books, an innovative independent publisher.   Over the years, Laura has worked with a wide range of celebrities, entrepreneurs and innovators, including Joan Lunden, Al Roker, Jennifer Hudson, Susan Lucci, Melissa Etheridge, Justin Bieber, Danica Patrick, John Maxwell, Glenn Stearns, and the Jonas Brothers.   Laura is also the writer, co-director, and producer of the award-winning 2022 documentary “Anxious Nation,” exploring the age of anxiety and depression, and a leading mental health advocate and workshop facilitator.     Join us for a wide-ranging conversation on the changing face of publishing, as Laura reflects on her long career as one of the industry's leading storytellers, and on her recent shift from ghostwriter to “mission-driven” publisher, helping to build a platform for her collaborative clients and other authors looking to land their stories on America's bookshelf.   Learn more about Laura Morton: Website Lasega Books Forefront Books Facebook Instagram Please support the sponsors who support our show: Ritani Jewelers Daniel Paisner's Balloon Dog Daniel Paisner's SHOW: The Making and Unmaking of a Network Television Pilot Unforgiving: Lessons from the Fall by Lindsey Jacobellis Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Libro.fm (ASTOLDTO) | 2 audiobooks for the price of 1 when you start your membership Film Freaks Forever! podcast, hosted by Mark Jordan Legan and Phoef Sutton Everyday Shakespeare podcast A Mighty Blaze podcast The Writer's Bone Podcast Network Misfits Market (WRITERSBONE) | $15 off your first order  Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Wizard Pins (WRITERSBONE) | 20% discount

In today's episode, I'm joined by Bob Parsons, founder of GoDaddy, to discuss his incredible journey from the tough streets of Baltimore to building a billion-dollar empire. Bob opens up about his struggles with PTSD and the life-changing moment that helped him overcome it after decades of challenges. He shares how his passion for entrepreneurship started at a young age, driven by a need to provide for himself, and how these early lessons shaped his future success.

In his literary debut, Fire in the Hole!, this extraordinary entrepreneur recounts the exploits of his youth, his hellish days at the mercy of Catholic school nuns, his harrowing tour of combat duty in Vietnam as a US Marine, his pioneering contributions to the software and internet industries, and his latest ventures in power sports, golf, real estate, and marketing. Along the way, we witness his remarkable resilience as he copes with his mother’s mental illness and his father’s struggles, battles PTSD resulting from both his childhood and war traumas, and mounts a quest to find new and effective treatments for himself and others who suffer from this affliction. He strongly supports veterans organizations, and believing in the concept of paying it forward, has awarded grants to more than ninety-six charities and organizations worldwide through the Bob & Renee Parsons Foundation.

After an invitation to do the PXG Xperience from Dr. Bob Parsons, the podcast is live from Scottsdale National this week to talk about U.S. Open drama. Bryson DeChambeau fought a leaky driver and used a incredible short game to pull off a gritty victory at Pinehurst No. 2 as Rory McIlroy had a gut wrenching collapse missing two short putts on the last 4 holes to lose the U.S. Open trophy in his attempt to break his 10 year drought of major championships. We are discussing what is the larger story, Bryson winning or Rory's collapse? The Bryson Dechambeau story is a fascinating one as he has seemingly made a complete 180 in his career when it comes to popularity as he has reinvented himself and his game and the cherry on top was this victory in what has been a remarkable major season for Bryson. Rory McIlroy, who faces maybe more pressure than any player in the world to win a major, suffered a major setback by missing a couple very short putts in route to losing by a stroke. Where will Rory's career go from here? Will he ever get major number five? We are here at the beautiful Scottsdale National and did a full PXG club fitting, we will talk a little about it this week(and much more next week) and give our thoughts so far on the trip. All that and some professional golf superlatives to have some fun to finish the podcast on this week's episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Bob Parsons, possibly best-known as the founder of GoDaddy, is widely recognized for his entrepreneurial and philanthropic efforts. Currently, Bob is the CEO and founder of YAM Worldwide, which is home to his entrepreneurial ventures in the fields of motorcycles, golf, real estate, finance, marketing, innovation and philanthropy. Bob Parsons is a U.S. Marine Corps Vietnam veteran and a recipient of the Purple Heart Medal, Combat Action Ribbon and Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry. He attended college at the University of Baltimore on the G.I. Bill and graduated magna cum laude. His alma mater presented him with an honorary doctorate in 2008 and named him Distinguished Entrepreneur in 2010. In 1984 Parsons started his first business, Parsons Technology, in his basement after teaching himself how to write computer programs. When Parsons Technology was sold to Intuit in 1994 for $64 million, the company had nearly one thousand employees, $100 million in annual revenue and three million customers. Three years later, Parsons launched Jomax Technologies which would later become GoDaddy – the world's largest domain name registrar. He sold a majority stake in 2011, in a deal that valued the company at $2.3 billion. In 2012 Parsons founded YAM Worldwide under which he owns and operates more than a dozen companies, including PXG (Parsons Xtreme Golf), Scottsdale National Golf Club, Harley-Davidson of Scottsdale, GO AZ Motorcycles, and YAM Properties. Over the years, three of Parsons entrepreneurial ventures – Parsons Technology (#11, 1992), GoDaddy (#8, 2004) and now PXG (#123, 2019) – have been recognized by Inc Magazine as being among America's fastest growing privately-held companies. Parsons, with his wife and PXG President of Apparel, Renee started The Bob & Renee Parsons Foundation in 2012 to reach marginalized populations and causes often underfunded by mainstream philanthropy. The Foundation provides transformational grants to nonprofit organizations successfully working in the areas of homelessness, medical care, LGBTQ youth, education and the needs of wounded veterans and military families. In his new book, FIRE IN THE HOLE!, Bob tells the story of how he went from having absolutely nothing to making more than $3 billion dollars. FIRE IN THE HOLE! is honest, hilarious, outrageous, raw, and full of valuable business and life lessons.

Bob Parsons, the founder and CEO of Parsons Xtreme Golf, better known as PXG, was in the twin cities and we were lucky enough to get to sit down with him for an interview. Bob talked about his childhood growing up in Baltimore and how his combat time in Vietnam as part of the Marine Corps molded him into the person he is today. Bob is one of the most successful businessmen in America, founding multiple companies, including GoDaddy and now PXG Golf. He gets into his time in Vietnam and battling PTSD in the years and decades following and how he helps other veterans with both his story and donations to various charities. Bob and his wife Renee have multiple philanthropic causes they are passionate about helping and making a positive impact in the lives of many people. Bob talked about his passion for golf and how that led him to start PXG. PXG is one of the few golf companies to come along in the last decade with staying power in an industry dominated by companies that have been around forever. PXG has been able to make their imprint in the golf club and apparel world by doing things differently, with a direct to consumer approach rather than putting their clubs in the big box stores. Bob will get into how he got into this business and the challenges that come along with breaking through in the golf industry. Bob Parsons is an American success story and he has a new best selling book out titled "Fire in the Hole!" The book is full of amazing stories and at the end of this podcast episode he tells one of the funniest stories you will ever hear from his high school days in Baltimore.

Nick Jahnke, the Vice President of U.S. Sales at PXG joins Paul on the Behind the Golf Brand Podcast. Parsons Xtreme Golf (PXG) was founded in September of 2013 by well-known businessman, philanthropist and golf nut Bob Parsons. PXG was born out of Parsons' desire to make the world's best golf equipment. A shared passion for the greatest game ever played and equitable obsession with club technology led Parsons to partner with two highly respected golf club designers to develop the finest equipment on the planet. Parsons demanded of his designers what most golfers dream about: a sexy set of golf irons that look like blades, launch higher, go farther, feel softer and have a sweet spot the size of Texas. "PXG clubs have to feel like butter and the difference has to be noticeable. With no cost or time constraints, the duo began the long process of researching various alloys, exploring new technologies and identifying the unique properties that would make PXG clubs unlike anything else. More than 200 global patents later, Parsons Xtreme Golf has introduced a full line of golf clubs that are forcing golfers to change the way they think about the game. In response to explosive growth since its inception, PXG has quickly become an international brand, with stores, fitters, retailers and distributors around the world.Support the show

Andy and Brendan send you off to the weekend with a fun 50 minutes on … a wide range of subjects. They begin with some reaction to Zach Johnon jamming right in their faces with an opening round 10-under 62. Then they somehow get on the subject of the proper way to cut grilled cheese, parents who email the school too much, and Coco Gauff's pasta endorsement. There's more discussion on some Palm Springs matters, like Jon Rahm allegedly being in town and playing in some games, Nick Dunlap's impressive showing, and Billy Boy mic'd up on PGA Tour Live. They also discuss Bernhard Langer announcing this year will be his last Masters and Fred Ridley saying Angel Cabrera will be welcomed back if he gets his visa. Some Pelley quotes about a “global tour” are also dissected and analyzed as fairly pushy on his strategic alliance. They close with a Golf Advice segment on a boss making an employee take his son out to his fancy club and a Bob Parsons speech at the Asia Pacific Golf Summit in Vietnam.

a fairly odd couple Mart the dart spent the week at the PXG headquarters getting a fitting and got to sit down briefly with Bob Parsons the Founder of PXG.

It's Victory Monday! Andy and Brendan delight in their teams' Sunday success before looking ahead to the highly anticipated Bears-Browns clash this coming week. Then they get into the memo from the PGA Tour Policy Board announcing that they've singled out, unanimously, a funding partner in Strategic Sports Group, inclusive of Fenway, to proceed with in negotiations in conjunction with the PIF. They discuss what this might mean for the future of the Tour, where it stands now with Rahm gone, Cantlay allegedly having more power, and Jordan Spieth pushing back on that narrative. The second half is Part 5 of The 2023 Year in Review, picking up with Andy playing Augusta National, the RBC Heritage week, an amusing never-before-told Bob Parsons story, and closing out with the Byron Nelson. 

 I've been seriously thinking about taking up golf. I've played a little and whacked a few balls pretty far at the driving range but I'm not what you would call a golfer. Probably because it usually takes 4 hours to play, and I usually don't have an extra 4 hours. But I'm rethinking the whole idea. Why don't I have 4 hours to do something I might like? I waste just as much time walking around my house. LOL  No doubt the sport of golf is growing and certainly there are many like me who have the desire, but not the knowledge or the time or the outfits, but there are some good pretty good reasons to rethink it.    My recent introduction to PXG (Parsons Xtreme Golf), founded by GoDaddy's Bob Parsons, has piqued my interest. PXG is known known for its innovative approach to golf and its support for veterans' causes. They have 22 locations nationwide, where you can buy clubs and apparel and get a golf club fitting, and they even offer a mobile golf club fitting service for country clubs.  Their newest location and first in the Northeast, their PXG Superstore just opened in New Rochelle, NY. Not far from where I live. So, I went to go see it. It's a wow.    When I met Jason Tomlinson who runs the new PXG location, I invited him to come talk about the company, the store, the game and what they're doing to encourage new players.   We both agreed:   ·         Golf's has a positive impact on fitness. ·        Golf has a challenging mental aspect to the game. ·        Golf allows you to enjoy nature which is therapeutic. ·        Golf is a networking tool: a wonderful way for businesspeople to create relationships and the growing inclusion of women in the sport is refreshing.    Jason and PXG want to help you all learn to play golf without feeling awkward. One upcoming event at their N.Y. location on December 9th in partnership with Westfair Communications is called "Demystifying Golf - Learn to Swing and Network”. It's from 10am -12:30 at PXG Golf, 100 Nardozzi Place New Rochelle, NY. LPGA Pro Anya Alverez will lead the clinic. The event is free but space is limited and reservations must be made in advance.  Sounds like a fun way to learn about golf and network with other enthusiasts. They'll also be having a series of ongoing free clinics over the next few weeks.  At PXG's huge new Rochelle facility, Jason says one of the unique things they offer are personalized golf club fittings using Trackman technology. He really emphasized the importance of a proper club fitting for improving one's golf game and said investing in quality golf clubs is an investment in one's golfing future.  I think a ‘Golf Club Fitting' is a perfect gift idea for any golf enthusiast or anyone starting out. And from what I saw of the incredibly stylish PXG golf apparel around the store, anyone wearing that stuff could look like a pro whether they play the game or not. LOL  But if you know you me you know I prefer ‘authentic', which is why I really like the PXG company values a lot. They're commited to supporting veterans and supporting the professional players on tour who have values that resonate. PXG's Heroes program, also offers discounts to the military and first responders. Bob Parsons and his wife have generously given away nearly $300 million to charities since 2012.  Enjoy this lighthearted and informative podcast of the live radio conversation with Jason Tomlinson of PXG Golf on The Debbie Nigro Show.
