    What does it really take to start a golf podcast and keep going when the guests cancel, the numbers fluctuate and giving up feels easier? In Episode 26 of the LA Golf Channel Podcast, Lee sits down with Dave from the Birdie Golf Club Podcast for an honest, funny and thoughtful conversation about golf, podcasting and the resilience required to build something meaningful.
