Golf podcasts are a dime a dozen. It seems like every one and their brother has started one and it makes it difficult to keep up with them all, or to determine what shows are worth your time.
On the drive to a variety of tournaments during March and April, I listened to my fair share and I made a discovery swiping through my library: a fair number of pods I liked are either extinct or on a lengthy hiatus. (Will Haskett, bring back The Perfect Number, please, Shane Ryan, it’s a Ryder Cup year and I’m ready for The Ryder Cup Run, and Tony Finau and Boyd Summerhays, Let’s Get It a little more often.)

The sports world’s loss is the golf fans gain and they debuted with U.S. Ryder Cup captain Zach Johnson. Expect more great guests to follow.
Two-time PGA Tour winner Matt Every and former Tour pro and occasional Tour caddie Aron Price have built some great relationships over the years with players and they’re tapping in to them to tell some hilarious stories from the world of golf. The likes of Cam Smith, Billy Horschel and Chris Kirk have already been guests and they’re just a little more relaxed and willing to have fun and open up than they are when being grilled by members of the media with a video camera recording their every um and yeah.
Every and Price are two guys I always sought out at the range for a quick chat, and this podcast feels like an extension of those chit-chat sessions just made available to a wider audience.
