    EP90: The Death of Mini-Driver
    2024/11/19
    It’s good to talk, as they say. With that in mind Andrew and Iain invite Eddie to share his thoughts on all that went on during an extraordinary week at Q-School in Spain and where it leaves him now and going forward. And they wonder whether he will ever be reunited with one of his most important clubs. In this extra-long pod, to try and make amends for not delivering an episode last week, the trio go on to discuss Rory McIlroy’s consistent excellence, Tyrell Hatton’s consistent petulance and Carlota Ciganda’s consistent intransigence. There are further thoughts on Nelly Korda, induced labour, Andy Murray’s golf swing and what the name is for the gadget-thing that tells you stuff.

    EP89: In Memory of Veruca Salt
    2024/11/05
    A quieter week in golf, but still plenty to reflect upon as Charley Hull returned to winning ways with her victory in Saudi Arabia and 22 players earned DP World Tour cards through the Challenge Tour rankings. Eddie, meanwhile, is getting ready to go back to school and seems fairly relaxed about it all. Andrew and Iain are more concerned that Eddie hasn’t read any Roald Dahl. hey do manage to mention the proposed narrowing of membership of the PGA Tour and the report that a merger between PIF and that Tour is on its way. However, they fail to discuss the fact that Wentworth had to issue a denial about rumours (passed on by Eddie last week) that the PIF might be buying the club. Instead, they find time for a chat about planned obsolescence in electric toothbrushes. Which all might mean the pod becomes obsolete very shortly...

    EP88: The Good, the Bad and the Eddie
    2024/10/29
    Eddie is back with very little sleep but brings tales from the Orient, as he came close to keeping his Tour card in Korea and in the process won many friends. And isn’t that more important? Well, no... the card is more important. But he tells Andrew and Iain that it’s now all about Q-School in Spain and that his game is in good shape. He also considers how he might have done things differently this year but is focussing on the important things in life. Such as getting a set of waterproofs that mice haven’t eaten. And anyway, his golfing concerns seem far less than Iain’s, as the regular special guest slumps to an all-time low as his handicap soars...

    Eddie is reduced to a WhatsApp message this week as he has been excused pod duties so that he can fly to Korea and play some rather important golf. There, he might handle his jet-lag by listening to Iain’s robust defence of his character following remarks made on last week’s pod about handing in scores for a handicap. With the jury deliberating, the pair move on to chat about a marathon play-off win for Julien Guerrier, talk about the efficacy or otherwise of golf psychology and reveal which golfer truly transformed the professional game in the late 90s. As well as discussing high drama in front of the senior ladies section at a Canadian Golf Club.

    Increase your productivity by 400 PER CENT by listening to this week’s episode, where Eddie recounts weekend woes in France and appalling aeroplane etiquette. The trio go on to try and explain why the appearance of anchoring in a putting stroke might not really be anchoring. There is further criticism of the handicap system as it is now and of those many golfers who abuse it - on which note there is quite the revelation from Iain. But his name is dying out, so we cut him some slack. And if all that’s not enough for you, Andrew talks about motivation in business and bored, drunk wasps.

    EP85: At least it wasn’t a 10
    2024/10/08
    It’s a Dunhill Links debrief this week and while Andrew and Iain skirt delicately around the issue, Eddie is quite happy to talk about life before and after the 16th hole at Kingsbarns. They also discuss Tyrell Hatton’s win - taking a huge cheque from the DP World Tour which would cover his DP World Tour fines if he should ever decide to pay them. They get into the revival of Nicolas Colsaerts, as well as wondering about poor on-course behaviour and what possible mitigation there might be. Yet there is still time for more musings on the future of the professional game, clarification on which Open course is closest to the sea and an explanation for being half-naked in Bernhard Langer’s hotel room.

    This week Eddie reflects on his demi-tournament in Spain and reveals the reason why his missed cut was particularly hard to take (yet vital to restore flagging energy). The three also look back at the Presidents Cup and wonder if it needs a change in format, while asking how short does a putt have to be before it is a gimmie? They also look ahead to the Dunhill Links this week and try to uncover the mysteries of how the amateurs are paired with the professionals, while Iain confesses that his driving distance stats recently suffered a major set-back.

    EP83: Eddie on the Up
    2024/09/23
    An episode recorded in the immediate afterglow of a fine tournament for Eddie, finishing just outside the top-10 at the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth and ensuring that his dogs will eat tonight. Iain and Andrew have recovered from the emotional wringer that any follower of Eddie is put through and they wonder what is the correct way to show your support for golfers who are, by and large, unhinged. They also find praise for Rory McIlroy after another near miss, wonder exactly why Billy Horschel isn’t on The American Presidents Cup team and have an encounter with a man who seems determined to ensure that the name Gary survives for years to come.
