A jet-lagged Andy is back in America and is joined by Shane Bacon for this Wednesday episode about slightly more than nothing. This wide-ranging conversation hits on dozens of important topics, such as the core values of Talor Gooch's new OKGC team, TGL's choice for 2026 Player of the Year, a Newark airport review, and a dramatic reading of this week's Legends Tour field in Barbados. There is actual golf discussed at some points, as Andy, Shane, and PJ dive into the Zurich Classic and the ridiculous teams competing for 400 FedEx Cup points and a two-year exemption this week in New Orleans.

Shane and Andy discuss if Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry's victory at the Zurich Classic and what it could mean for the rest of 2024. Cochran's near made cut is broached and a deeper discussion of which podcasters the 65 year old could beat is opened up. Finally the pair close with a discussion on LIV Adelaide, the big crowds and seemingly genuine team competition the event earned. They also discussed a bunch of other stuff both related and unrelated to golf.

Shane Bacon joins the podcast to talk about calling the featured groups at the Masters plus a debrief of the tournament and Scottie Scheffler. The two get into Augusta National as a tournament venue and how the course has changed its identity for the purpose of challenging the best in the game. Then they dive into all things Scottie Scheffler and how his simple process and mindset have set him up for a long run of greatness and how other players have struggled with the things Scottie does so well. Finally they finish off with some Harbour Town/RBC Heritage chatter and rounding thoughts on Bryson Dechambeau and other Masters loose ends.

After Scottie Scheffler's victorious march through Augusta National on Sunday, Garrett and Joseph sat down to discuss a terrific 2024 Masters. First they talk about what they're IN and OUT on this week; then they run through a couple of their high-level takeaways from the tournament. Later, they bring on Andy Johnson (24:49) and Shane Bacon (58:18) to get some on-the-ground perspectives. Garrett and Joseph wrap up the episode with Recommendations.

This is a whiparound rambling Wednesday episode that begins with a hat chat: how many is too many? Shane Bacon joins Brendan Porath to discuss this pressing question before getting to one of the great delights of the year: the European Tour's stop at DLF, the first true “so bad it's good” course in this podcast's history. There is some intel from the ground about a potential hardship that has a few caddies grumbling but might be further evidence that Gary Player is one of our great modern architects. Speaking of Gary, they discuss his tweet that the foam roll bunkers could be color coded and changed, one of many benefits according to Mr. Player. There's also a bit about how some are using whiskey in Delhi as a preventive health device. There's also intel from the ground at the Houston Open, where the Tour might be neutering some Tom Doak work with a big backboard. Cutthroat Corner returns and this time a fan favorite is in the crosshairs. They close with news of some TGL return dates and Phil Mickelson's caddie change.

Shane Bacon joins Andy to rank their 7 favorites for the Masters. The episode starts with a discussion on the NCAA Tournament and if golf is missing the match play tournament. Then Andy and Shane rip through the latest news including Tiger playing the Masters and Angel Cabrera not.

The PGA Tour gets on the board this year with an outstanding Players Championship from start to finish. Brendan, still shaking off the cobwebs from the trip to Northern Ireland, is joined by Shane Bacon for this wide-ranging recap that begins with some Sunday parenting horror stories before getting into audacious Tiger-like comps for the back-to-back Players winner. The two discuss what impresses them most about Scottie Scheffler and if those in and around the game have undersold him and this run. Then they hand out grades for the handful of contenders, and non-contenders, as well as the coverage, course, Big Jay, and Johnson Wagner. It's a tough grade for Xander and Rory. Then they close out the episode with some news and quote roulette on Rory discussing Yasir's impending visit and meeting with the board, Peppy Peter on player control, and Jimmy Walker sounding off on a range of topics that left us puzzled.

After starting with what they're IN and OUT on this week, Andy and Joseph bring on Shane Bacon (@shanebacon) to discuss the state of the West Coast Swing. They touch on what was good and bad about each of this year's West Coast events, why many of them fell flat, and how to incentivize players to create a more compelling product. They also ask whether there are any PGA Tour courses that truly test the pros outside of Riviera, and whether the schedule can be restructured to give the West Coast tournaments a better chance of avoiding poor weather and turf conditions. They then name some players they think have a good chance at The Masters before Andy and Joseph wrap up with recommendations.

KVV remains in the captain's chair for tonight's pod along with Shane Bacon and Kyle Porter as Matthieu Pavon wins at Torrey Pines with a birdie on the 72nd hole to beat Nicolai Hojgaard by a shot.
