About this episode
A Ryder Cup to forget for Team USA, a big win at the Asian Games, and professional caddy Henry McGannon on this week's CoL, hosted by Alex Lauzon and Michael Russell. The Ryder Cup was a embarrassing disaster for the Americans as Team Europe marched to victory in Rome (1:59). At the Asian Games, top Korean golfers Sunjea Im and Si Woo Kim lead their team to an important victory (7:34). This week's LPGA event at the Colony in the Dallas area will include something different: Alex walking and talking with the players during their practice rounds (9:13). Alex's weekend featured his annual pilgrimage to the East Side Mini Open, an Austin bar crawl unlike any other (10:51). Our YouTube channel includes videos of what its like inside the PBR Shark Cage, being inside the Alamodome for a UTSA game, and coming up this week some videos of Alex's time in Illinois, including randomly gambling at the slots (12:20). This weekend the PGA TOUR returns with the Sanderson Farms Open, where a past guest may have a great opportunity to ride his current hot streak (13:23). In Tuned In, Michael is all set up for Halloween as October begins, and Alex is dreaming of a 2000's boy band super tour as N*SYNC returns (15:39). This week's guest is Henry McGannon, a professional caddy at Kiawah, and previously Pinehurst. Henry shares stories of caddying at these famous courses, including with Phil Mickelson, and why he created his apparel brand, RealGolfers (19:13). Michael is headed down the wormhole as he discovered how inadequate he is thanks to the life of a private jet broker (45:36). In college football, Alex's picks remain average, but he's waiting to say the word G * * D if Texas wins again this weekend (47:59). In the NFL, it's just more bad news for Alex's Patriots, but at least the league tried out Toy Story football this weekend (49:40). Michael is still revealing in Quinnipiac's National Championship, especially as the Bobcats revealed their Championship rings this weekend (52:43). As the guys #AlwaysEndWithFood, Alex is enjoying some unique wings, while Michael is in awe at everything his Ace Hardware has, including some awesome seasoning blends (53:39). Support our friends!
