Brian Smith, former Navy officer, federal executive, and now Director of Nuclear Reactor Development at Idaho National Laboratory, joins the latest Nomad Futurist Podcast with co-hosts Nabeel Mahmood and Phillip Koblence. He shares his unexpected journey and how it prepared him to help solve one of today's most critical challenges: powering the digital age. “Nothing is off the table.” With that bold opener, Brian set the tone for an honest and wide-ranging discussion — the kind needed in an industry we strive to demystify. Brian's path didn't start in labs or government halls but rather began on golf courses. Once immersed in the world of elite tournaments with the USGA, he seemed destined for a future in sports. But after the tragic events of 9/11, and drawn by a family legacy of service, Brian answered the call and joined the Navy, where he rose quickly through the ranks: “I thought golf was my future… but I've always felt a call to serve. That call to service was pretty widespread for folks like me.” That sense of purpose carried him into the Navy's nuclear propulsion program, where he discovered a passion for technology and translating complex ideas into action, especially for policy and government decision-makers. Now, Brian sits at the intersection of advanced nuclear development and the surging energy demands of AI and hyperscale infrastructure. With a deep background in defense nuclear policy and a sharp understanding of both systems and people, he offers a rare perspective on what's next: “The data center industry is starting to view nuclear power the same way the Navy views nuclear submarines.” Yet despite the scale and complexity of his work, Brian grounds his success, and the industry's future, in something deeply human: “This is a human-driven business.... And the beauty is [we] are representative of our industry... [And] the networks in this industry are what make it [thrive].” Brian's story is a masterclass in adaptability, service, and communication. It's a reminder that curiosity, commitment, and community are what truly power progress. Connect with Brian Smith on LinkedIn to follow his insights on powering the next generation of infrastructure.

This episode features James Pleat and Tara Watt, both of whom have been on the show before. In this episode, I talk with them about their recent success qualifying for their respective USGA Mid-Am tournaments (they were both medalists!). They talked about their qualifying rounds and how they are preparing for the big tournaments coming up. We also talk about their pride in representing New Hampshire on the national golf stage. When the tournaments are over, I will have them back on the show so we can talk about their experience. Thanks for listening! And thanks to The Oaks for sponsoring the podcast this season.

As we countdown until the days of the playing of the 2025 Walker Cup at the Cypress Point Club, I thought it would be great to look back at the History of Dr. Alister MacKenzie and Cypress Point with our special guest Sean Tully. Its a great show where we ask the question - what would Dr. Mackenzie's career looked like, had Seth Raynor not passed away suddenly in 1926. We discuss the semi-recently found routing plans that may predate both Mackenzie and Raynor. Enjoy the show and the 2025 Walker Cup!

GS#429 March 25, 2014 In the last episode, we stumped Richard Todd on a few details of specific rules.

This week on Turf Today we host episode 3 of Rolling with the Green Section. Join Ross Niewola and Mitch Leininger, two front-line agronomy experts from the USGA, as they demystify the science behind championship level maintenance. Ross explores the cutting-edge shift toward output-guided maintenance, where metrics like green speed, firmness, clipping volume, and soil moisture guide decisions on fertilizer, irrigation, mowing frequency, and more. Meanwhile, Mitch dives into the art and science of bunker health, discussing how site-specific fertility, precise sand depth, routine raking, proper drainage, and strategic renovation keep bunkers both playable and resilient. Whether you're a Superintendent looking to optimize resources, a new student of the indusrty or simply curious about how agronomy shapes your golf experience, this episode delivers a master class in modern, data-driven turf management.

GS#428 March 18, 2014 Richard E. Todd was trained on the rules of golf by the USGA and the PGA.

GS#405 October 8, 2013 Despite strict USGA guidelines, not all golf clubs perform the same. Golf Professionals play with sticks that are meticulously tailored to their swing. Amateur golfers make purchases based on what the Pros play. No matter their skill level, few golfers take advantage of being fitted for clubs that compliment their swing style. Host Fred Greene is in the market for a new Driver, fairway driver, and hybrids and was amazed to learn how different each club performs for his swing. During the 90 minute session, join Fred to learn why club head speed, launch angle, spin rate, dispersion are important, and that some older models suit him better than “the newest and the greatest”. **Note: The beep is when Nick mentioned a price that may not be available everywhere.If you'd prefer to watch this, it's available on our GolfSmarterTV channel at https://youtu.be/_TynkSmMrB0?si=fF4gsjf5y_7SRGEcPlease check out this article about Fred's golf and podcast journey called "A Lifetime On The Air" that was published in the NCGA Magazine (Northern California Golf Association) recently!   Get more when your visit the refreshed golfsmarter.com!Introduce an Upcoming Episode: Receive free gifts for recording a show opening by clicking on "Record Your Show Open Here!" tab on the right side of golfsmarter.com. Watch Daily Video Highlights from Our Interviews: Follow @golfsmarter on Instagram, X, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube daily to see our highlights and helpful insights from our interviews on the podcast. Post a Review: you'll receive three free gifts when you post an honest review about Golf Smarter the podcast.Fill Out a Listener Survey: It only takes a few minutes to fill out our survey, which helps us to better serve your interests in the podcast.

Did the USGA get Sunday wrong? Ball roll back, would the PGAT,LIV and the NCAA walk away from the USGA?

With another men's major championship wrapped up, Andy Johnson is once again joined by 2008 Masters champion and CBS lead analyst Trevor Immelman to recap J.J. Spaun's victory at the U.S. Open. The two dive into Spaun's winning performance at Oakmont, his golf swing, and his continuing development as a player in his mid-30s. Andy and Trevor also discuss the Sunday rain delay and the impact that it had on the contenders during the final round. The USGA's setup at Oakmont is covered at length with some comparisons to what may happen next year at Shinnecock Hills. To wrap things up, Andy and Trevor run through some players who did not win at Oakmont, including Bob MacIntyre, Cameron Young, Adam Scott, and Sam Burns.

Adam Hawk and Ryan Engle recap the 2025 U.S. Open, discuss the good and bad behavior of Tour pros, and recount their Father's Day. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

   It didn't take long for Gavin Newsom videos to surface that really destroy his current narrative and none are worse than a pair of social media posts he made.  Yep, Gavin loves the camera and twice before he has bragged about deploying the National Guard in California.  You have to hear this.    If the communists and anarchists have their way, Saturday will be a nationwide day of defiance being organized as something called Rise Up. Why Saturday?  There's three big reasons and we explain.    A Missouri state senator wants to name the St. Louis Cardinals the official pro baseball team of Missouri.  It's curious for a lot of reasons but he also wants to classify the Royals as something less.    The Yankees are in town and the K will be rocking.  We share a couple ideas the Chiefs could be considering if they stay at Arrowhead.  A coach at the College World Series is more than a coach.  The rough at the US Open and what the USGA does with this tourney every year takes away from the greatness of the players.      And our favorite local taco shells are coming back to shelves.  We'll tell you which big food company bought a local gem in Gladstone.  

We conclude our three part series on the famed Oakmont Country Club with our special guest, Oakmont Historian, Dave Moore. We kick off today's show with the 1962 US Open and a generational rivalry and we end our final Oakmont special discussing the amazing collection of antiquities within Oakmont's collection. Thank you for joining us on this journey that has been seven years in the making!

We are wishing a happy June 6th to you and yours, wherever you may be! Brendan barely has a voice but is still ready to celebrate the second anniversary of the Framework Agreement with Andy on this fine Friday episode. The two open with a lengthy discussion about the future of LIV Golf and the current status of this 731 day-old agreement between the PIF and PGA Tour. They debate whether the two sides ever actually come together and if not, what the best path forward is for everyone involved. From there, this is a bit of an Oakmont preview episode ahead of the 125th U.S. Open next week. Andy has Brendan and PJ attempt to place the top of the field into tiers, with some commentary on players such as Ludvig Åberg, Joaquin Niemann, and Justin Rose. Andy also goes down the list a bit to find a deep sleeper who has the short game to win a U.S. Open at a course like Oakmont. Brendan turns back the clock for a Flashback Friday on the 2016 U.S. Open and the rules controversy that loomed over Dustin Johnson's final round. He shares some tweets from Rory, Spieth, and even Rickie who were watching live and were not pleased with the USGA's handling of the situation. To close things out, Joseph LaMagna stops by bring Ernie Els's 1994 U.S. Open win into question after discovering some sketchy drops during the final round.

GSfMO#387 June 4, 2013: John “Lag” Erickson returns for a Members Only episode to break down his teaching method of improving your swing from impact backwards. We also discuss why bifurcation should be in place so that the USGA and the Tour have different rules. John feels very strongly that it all started going downhill when they allowed metal clubs instead of woods. We get into a deeper conversation about why he thinks everyone would play much better if they knew how to hit with persimmon woods. Strategy is also a very important topic when we discuss how to play better and lower your scores. Once you learn how to hit straight and become a better ball striker, then strategy, or course management, becomes critically important.  For more, check out AdvancedBallStriking.com.Get more when your visit the refreshed golfsmarter.com!Introduce an Upcoming Episode: Receive free gifts for recording a show opening by clicking on "Record Your Show Open Here!" tab on the right side of golfsmarter.com. Watch Daily Video Highlights from Our Interviews: Follow @golfsmarter on Instagram, X, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube daily to see our highlights and helpful insights from our interviews on the podcast. Post a Review: you'll receive three free gifts when you post an honest review about Golf Smarter the podcast.Fill Out a Listener Survey: It only takes a few minutes to fill out our survey, which helps us to better serve your interests in the podcast.
