Customer Reviews
Just needs a tweak for 5 stars
The guys get excellent guests which makes for potentially fascinating shows. However as other reviews point out it’s a bit Heath Robinson in terms of research / preparation, at least where LD is concerned, which is any easy fix. More key for the listener is abbreviating the rambling questioning style of LD which often finishes with him answering himself. He has a tendency to cut across guests mid flow too, which is a shame as most seem happy to speak freely when able (see Padraig, Chubby C as examples). JH has a depth of knowledge and perhaps could be more of a lead on the questioning? In essence more space for guests to talk to topics would be great.
Love you guys
Great PC and 99% of content just so on the mark and great to listen to. Would be good though if the LIV content on any cast could be a little more balanced as always just seems to has a negative slant and feel…
Great Golf Podcast
I have been listening to McKellar for a few years and enjoy every episode. Lawrence is a great host, witty but happy to ask the tough questions about where the game is going. Geoff Shackleford is a great addition to the show. My go to Podcast for golf. Keep up the good work chaps.
