    Signature event following the masters
    Listening to the podcast on the Hilton head tournament I disagree with the comments about the signature event after the masters I think that’s a perfect time for a signature event, coming off the masters you have a lot of folks interested in golf and great opportunity to carry the momentum. The worst thing that can happen is after a great golf tournament. People turn on golf the following week there are no top players playing and you can lose momentum. Hilton head is a great tournament always produces a great finish. Don’t change the field. It is good for golf.

    Weird interview
    That discussion with Andy from PGA seemed weird because he clearly isn’t a golf person, but obviously a corporate dude being brought in. Not sure he is much different than PIF running things.
  • aak224
    No sympathy for the bone saw 911 crew chief tour
    No, the PGA of America didn’t get it right by defector invitations to the PGA championship. Tell the guys to earned their way properly through the world, golf rankings that they can’t play because there’s uninvited unqualified players now invited. People accepted, massive amounts of money to go play for Saudi Arabian Satanist and you guys are going to try to say that Golf needs them. No Golf does not need the defectors the PGA tour is the leading tour in the world. We don’t need people who leave.

    Thumbs up to Golf Channel for this podcast
    WOKE Golf Channel is absolutely unwatchable but this is really good. I stumbled across it when Lavner was a guest on The Fried Egg pod awhile back. If they would cut out the useless chit-chat at the beginning of each episode, it would be 5 stars.
  • Rex n Lav review
    Rex and Lav
    A thumbs up on todays podcast guys! Thinking Rex got a bit sideways on this pay me to play Ryder Cup. Relax. Here’s the deal. These guys are playing for the pride of representing their country . They’re already millionaires to boot.. really, Rex? This isn’t so much of asking What would Jesus do; but, on the other hand what is the right thing to do. Rex, maybe you could cough up a stipend for each one of them…enough for each of them to buy ‘ birdie juice’ for each birdie the team makes ..🤣 Can’t wait for both Ryder and Soldheim. Few of my friends from LPGA are going over from Tampa Bay . Look forward to many minipods while you’re there. Still waiting for the best spicy marinade sauce for my chicken thighs.. Later, Gator …Always enjoy your podcasts ..Thx

    Finish a sentence
    Lavner ,can you let Rex Hoggard finish a sentence ? Hard to listen to
  • KMazzie
    Audio quality
    Episodes consistently have echoes and other background noise. The December 8th episode was impossible to listen to with the mechanical squeaking in the background.
  • TWayneTX
    Biggest Mediocres
    Best show to listen to grab a coffee, and catch up. They have a great angle approaching the news to where it’s user-friendly and understandable. The best mediocre team in podcast!!
  • Judahchris66
    Great content
    Ive always enjoyed reading Rex and Ryan’s work but I’ve only recently discovered this podcast and I love this podcast! Great banter between Ryan and Rex as well. Btw the post major round pods have been great so far.
  • Tee3377
    Please !
    I just cannot stand the consistency argumentative style of this podcast. Can you agree on anything ? It is unbecoming of the sport and of the sponsor.
  • bearcatfan1976
    Hate to beat a dead horse, but
    Golf Channel is a multi million dollar company. The audio sounds like a couple of kids living in their mom’s basement produced this. I don’t understand why they can’t fix this. I really enjoy the content but the horrible audio almost makes it impossible to listen to.

    Sound issues.
    When you listen to this podcast with AirPods you can only hear you talk out of the left AirPod. I hear the music at the beginning and end out of both AirPods but not the entire show. This is the only podcast I listen to that this happens.
  • D.furuya
    Turn up the mic or put you mouth closer to it.
    I like the show, it just sounds like you guys are 2 feet away from the mics. Harder to hear you guys be any other pods I listen to.
  • Nick Z (Olympics)
    The only golf podcast I listen to
    Rex, Will and the entire GC digital crew is top notch, just as they are in print and on broadcast. True Tour insiders with insight you can’t get elsewhere. Keep it up!

    Club pro guy’s podcast is hilarious
  • SportsCarBrian
    Volume issues?!?
    Please fix the audio volume in your podcasts! The content is good but you sound like your recording it in a basement on an amateur microphone. Golf Channel and Will step up the audio volume quality and it will be five stars!!!
  • G Fitz
    Great content
    Love the interviews and general golf talk.
  • Tommy Shanahan
    MIX IT BETTER
    Some good content, but it’s so POORLY MIXED that you either have to barely hear it or risk having your ears blown off from a commercial after turning it up to a decent level during the podcast. COME ON GUYS.
  • ohiowa3
    Turn up the volume!
    This podcast is oddly recorded at a volume about 60% lower than just about every other podcast. I have to crank to almost 100% just to get it to normal volume. Love the content though.
  • CYKBC
    I like the content but your audio is way low.
    Please remediate. Thank you!
