About this episode
On this week's pod: TWO different 54-hole no cut golf events, Taylor at the Grammys, and an absolute legend in NBA Hall of Famer Rick Barry. Hosted by Alex Lauzon and Michael Russell. Thanks to the weather, and the new Signature Event schedule, Wyndham Clark won the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in only 54 holes... but he did shoot a 60. (1:49). Last week's winner, Frenchman Matthieu Pavon, played well at Pebble Beach, and Michael is remembering what happened back when the guys had a heckler call in when they broadcast at Quinnipiac's student radio station (3:50). LIV regularly scheduled 54 hole event included a 59 from eventual winner Joaquin Niemann, while newbie Jon Rahm's team too the W in Mayakoba (5:25). The DP World Tour was in Bahrain, and Dylan Frittelli returned to form to return to the winner's circle (8:08). Blast from the past Anthony Kim has announced his intentions to return to professional golf, and Alex can't believe the former phenom is ready for a return (9:04). Taylor Swift stole the spotlight from the Grammys last night, and Alex has some feelings about the whole affair (10:13). Our YouTube channel has some great stuff on it, including weekly videos showcasing great stuff from last month's PGA Show which will continue to roll out of the next few weeks (13:56). Alex headed to the cinema to see Disney's new Migration , and brings us a review in Tuned In (15:12). The WM Phoenix Open parties on this weekend, and Scottie Scheffler looks to claim a 3-peat (16:28). This week's guest is NBA legend and Hall of Famer Rick Barry. The former Finals MVP, 8x All Star, and 4x World Long Drive Champion, is also an avid pickle baller. Rick chatting with Alex live on the PGA Show floor last month, and shares why he loves pickle ball, what it was like to dunk on Bill Russell, and his favorite golf course (18:59). This Sunday is the Super Bowl in Las Vegas, and all we really care about here is the prop bets (49:49). As we #AlwaysEndWithFood, Alex shares his football spread, which Michael thinks is a little too pun-ny (55:35). Support our friends!
