About this episode
Recorded several days early, hosts Alex Lauzon and Michael Russell give their early thoughts on the Open Championship, plus share their exciting itinerary they are currently experiencing this week in Ireland. Just because we recorded this early doesn't mean Alex doesn't crown a champion for the Open. Hint: it's not a player (1:46). The guys break down the exciting week they're in the middle of, thanks to Tourism Ireland, including a round at the 2006 Ryder Cup course, The K Club (5:22). The TOUR heads to the 3M Open next, where it's a sleepy field but the real estate next to the course is fire (11:16). In Tuned In, Michael is watching the original Justified with Timothy Olyphant, while Alex is choosing his early favorites for the Emmys (12:58). This week's conversation is the one that started it all. David Connellan of Golf Ireland and Tourism Ireland chatted with Alex back in January at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, and it's only fitting to be reminded of what we dreamed about experiencing back than that we're getting in droves now (15:05). Alex is ready for the start of the NFL Preseason, while Michael wonders if his Giants or Alex's Patriots have a better chance of making the playoffs (39:25). As the guys #AlwaysEndWithFood, it's all about what's going in our mouths in Ireland (41:22). Support our friends!
